“I would like to thank Roc Nation Sports, Caribe Promotions and HBO for the opportunity to fight on the biggest Pay-Per-View card of the year. It will be a night of great boxing that fans will not want to miss out on. It’s going to be a chance to show HBO what they want to see. Some say I’m not exciting but it’s not my fault that once my opponents feel my power, they start running and stop throwing punches. Regardless of that, I’m going to give them what they want. I will be standing in the middle of the ring toe-to-toe and putting on a show for the fans. This is where I’ll show the world what my fans got to see in my last fight in the UK against [Giacomo] Dickens,”Ha detto Rigondeaux. “I want to thank Moises Flores for having the courage to step in the ring with me and accepting the mandatory challenge unlike many great fighters in my division. Moises is an exciting Mexican fighter who will bring a fight. I will be ready to exhibit why I am one of the best pound-for-pound boxers and the world’s best at 122 libbre. I’m ready to give fans the best fight out there, and the best is to come the evening of Giugno 17."

 

“I’m very excited to have my world title fight with Guillermo Rigondeaux rescheduled for Sabato, Giugno 17 on HBO Pay-Per-View,” said Flores. “I’d like to thank my team at Probox Management and TGB Promotions along with HBO for providing this opportunity. I never stopped my preparations from the original date and look forward to making the Mexican fans proud when I defeat the great Rigondeaux.”

 

“Roc Nation Sports is thrilled to add Guillermo Rigondeaux’s championship defense against Moises Flores to the Pay-Per-View undercard of Ward-Kovalev 2: ‘The Rematch’,” said Roc Nation President & Chief of Branding and Strategy Michael R. Yormark. “We know these two champions are ready and eager to put on a big performance on boxing’s biggest stage and undoubtedly, ahead of the most anticipated fight of the year.”

 

“TGB Promotions is proud of this world title opportunity for Moises ‘Chucky’ Flores as he takes on one of the premier fighters in the sport, Guillermo Rigondeaux,"Ha detto Tom Brown, Presidente di Promotions TGB. “Chucky is well prepared and looking forward to making the Mexican fans proud of their new World Champion on Giugno 17."

 

Guillermo “El Chacal” Rigondeaux (17-0, 11 KO), was one of the most celebrated amateur boxers in Cuba before defecting and making his professional debut on May 22, 2009 a Miami, Florida. High expectations had no ill effect on Rigondeaux as he tore through his next five opponents. Novembre 13, 2010, in just his seventh pro fight, Rigondeaux faced Ricardo Cordoba for the vacant interim WBA World Super Bantamweight title and left the ring with the belt after scoring a split decision victory. Rigondeaux turned his attention to supremacy in the 122-pound division and accomplished what many considered the unthinkable by knocking out WBA World Super Bantamweight Champion Rico Ramos on January 20, 2012, becoming a world champion in fewer than 10 attacchi professionali. Nell'aprile 13, 2013 at Radio City Music Hall in New York City, Rigondeaux scored his biggest victory to date by defeatingWBO and Ring Magazine World Champion and 2012 Fighter of the Year Nonito Donaire. Rigondeaux came away with the victory by unanimous decision after out landing and out punching Donaire throughout the fight to unify titles. In November of 2015, Roc Nation Sports announced that it had signed Rigondeaux to an exclusive promotional agreement and featured him on the HBO Pay-Per-View undercard of the Miguel Cotto vs. Canelo Alvarez mega-fight at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas, where he defeated veteran Drian Francisco via a 10-round unanimous decision. Prior to beating Francisco, Rigondeaux was stripped of his title belts due to inactivity, but remained the WBA champion in recess. Nel maggio del 2016, Roc Nation Sports announced that Rigondeaux was reinstated of his WBA belt ahead of a 12-round WBA World Super Bantamweight championship showdown against number 13 rated WBA super bantamweight contender Jazza Dickens on Luglio 16 at the Cardiff Ice Arena in Wales. In his first ever appearance in the United Kingdom, Rigondeaux gave fans a thrilling knockout against Dickens. The southpaw landed a big left hook, shattering Dickens’s jaw, halting the fight in the second round with a referee’s decision. Rigondeaux will be raring to go on Giugno 17 in his title defense against interim champion Moises Flores.

 

Moises “Chucky” Flores (25-0, 17 KO) learned the fight game growing up in Guadalajara, Messico, and spent the early years of his professional career building up his résumé in his home country. Now established as a title contender at 122 libbre, Flores looks to climb to the top of the division with his considerable talent. Flores is exceptionally tall for his weight class, measuring in at 5 piedi 9 inches. Come tale, he tends to have a reach advantage over most of his opponents, although Flores isn’t one to merely fire punches from a distance and box from the outside. He likes to mix it up, and his record reflects that, with most of his opponents going down by knockout. Flores made his pro debut in August 2008 with a second round knockout of Oswaldo Salgado in Guadalajara, Messico. He fought exclusively in Mexico over the first six years of his career and made quick work of most of his opponents. Flores made his U.S. debutto a settembre 2014, winning a six round unanimous decision over Pablo Batres in Mesquite, Texas. He then gained a seventh round technical knockout of Mexican veteran Mario Macias in Tulsa, Oklahoma, nel mese di novembre 2014. That victory set up a 122-pound title shot against interim WBA World Super Bantamweight Champion Oscar Escandon in Carson, California, nel mese di aprile 2015. In an electrifying, all-action brawl, Flores earned a split decision to win the title. Nei suoi ultimi due combattimenti, Flores was able to defend the interim WBA World Super Bantamweight title against Luis Emanuel Cusolito, while also adding the IBO World Super Bantamweight title against Paulus Ambunda. Flores looks forward to claiming the full rights to the WBA World Super Bantamweight title on Giugno 17 when he faces current champion Guillermo Rigondeaux in a 12-round championship showdown.

VLADIMIR TIKHONOV WANTS TO TEST ACES QUIGG, RIGO AND/OR DONAIRE

RUSSIAN HITTER SEEKS STERNEST TESTS AT 122
PER IL RILASCIO IMMEDIATO

Vladimir Tikhonov, nominale No 9 dalla WBA, e No 13 by WBO, has put word out that he’s ready, willing and more than able to rumble with the best and brightest in the super bantamweight division.

Scott Quigg, “let’s get it on”, he is calling the former WBA champion out, through promoter Dmitriy Salita.

Guillermo Rigondeaux, “I respect your skills but don’t believe you are invincible”, is Tikhonov’s message for the Cuban sweet scientist.

Nonito Donaire, “If you take care of business Novembre. 5 against Jessie Magdalendo then how about you step to the line against me,”, said the 15-0 (8 KO) Russo.

Tikhonov is a big, strong super bantamweight who knows how to use his height, reach and power,” Salita said of the southpaw pugilist tutored by Igor Shafer in St Petersburg, Russia. “Vladimir is very well schooled and wants to fight the best fighters in the division. Russia is producing lots of top notch fighters, contenders and world champions. I feel that Vladimir has the skills and experience to be the new face in the super bantamweight division!”

Il 26 year-old Tikhonov got it done in his last outing against 40-4 Mikhail Krivolapov. Salita has proven himself to be judicious talent spotter, no surprise since he’s been to the mountain top himself, as a standout at 140 libbre, con 35-2-1 record at junior welterweight/welterweight. “This Russian is ready to rock and makes heads roll at super bantamweight,” Word ha detto. “He can finish out this year with a bang and climb even higher in 2017!”

Fiori, who is also the WBA interim champion, is now the mandatory challenger to face WBA super-champion Guillermo Rigondeaux (17-0, 11 KO). Both camps are in negotiations with the possibility of the fight happening in the next few months. If the fight comes to fruition, both the WBA and IBO world title belts will be on the line. After receiving his IBO world title belt, and a big fight looming with Rigondeaux, Flores speaks on his current situation.
Winning the IBO world championship is a testament to my hard work and the great team around me,” said Mexico’s Moises “Chucky” Fiori. “Together we worked really hard to get this world title. I’m now the mandatory to challenge Guillermo Rigondeaux, a fight I’m looking forward to. He’s very skilled but I feel I have all the tools to defeat him. My management team is working hard to get this fight finalized. It’s time to see who the best super-bantamweight is. I going to bring that world title home to Mexico.

Guillermo Rigondeaux’ direttore accetta l'offerta Da manager di Vasyl Lomachenko

CORK, Irlanda (Luglio 13, 2015) – Irlandese Gary Hyde, il direttore di unificata super-gallo (122 lbs.) campione del mondo Fattura “Lo Sciacallo” Rigondeaux (15-0, 10 KO), ha accettato in linea di principio l'offerta fatta da Egis clima, direttore di World Boxing Organization (WBO) piuma (126 lbs.) campione Vasyl “Hi-Tech” Lomachenko (4-1, 2 KO), per una lotta super.

 

Rigondeaux è il campione in carica World Boxing Association (WBA) Eccellente, WBO e The Ring campione dei pesi gallo super rivista.

 

Cubano-native Rigondeaux, che ora vive a Miami, e di origine ucraina Lomachenko sono entrambi medaglia d'oro olimpica, due volte.

 

“‘Rigo’ combatterà Lomachenko a catchweight di 124 libbre, che dovrebbe essere un problema per Lomachenko perché pesava 125 libbre per uno dei suoi combattimenti professionali, Hyde ha detto. “‘Rigo’ è un piccolo 122 libbre che potrebbe fare 118 senza troppi problemi, ma sarebbe stato in palio di dimensione e peso vantaggi per affrontare Lomachenko.

“Vorremmo insistere su una clausola di reidratazione di 135 libbre per Fight Night. Se Klimas accetta di questo, poi, abbiamo una lotta. Lomachenko è un combattente magistrale come 'Rigo’ e questa partita- up sarà un classico. Abbiamo un paio di due volte medaglia d'oro olimpica e campione del mondo in carica che vanno esso. Io credo 'Rigo’ è il più feroce dei due combattenti e credo fermamente 'Rigo’ dominerà Lomachenko. Clima, si sa cosa si deve fare per rendere la lotta, basta prendere il telefono e chiamare me. ‘Rigo’ è pronto!”

Boxing’s most avoided world champion Guillermo Rigondeaux heading to UK next month To publically confront Scott Quigg

CORK, Irlanda (Aprile 12, 2015) – Unified super bantamweight world champion Fattura “Lo Sciacallo” Rigondeaux (15-0, 10 KO), arguably the most avoided reigning world title holder in modern boxing history, will travel to London next month in order to publicly confront his mandatory challenger, Scott Quigg (30-0-2, 22 KO), the World Boxing Association (WBA) “regolare” 122-pound divisione titlist.

 

A month ago in an unusual move, Rigondeaux’ manager Gary Hyde formally petitioned the WBA to enforce a mandatory title fight between his WBA Super champion and Quigg. Hyde is awaiting the WBA’s decision. Rigondeaux is also the World Boxing Organization (WBO) e The Ring campione dei pesi gallo super rivista.

 

A reigning world champion hasn’t been avoided by other world champions and top contenders like Rigondeux has for the past two years since, forse, medi junior Sergio Martinez, or possibly all the way back to middleweight Mike McCallum.

 

The top three super bantamweights in the world outside of RigondeauxInternational Boxing Federation (IBF) e World Boxing Council (WBC) campioni, Carl Frampton e Leo Santa Cruz, rispettivamente, plus Quigghave avoided the Cuban great like the plaque. Once Santa Cruzpromoter at the time, Oscar de la Hoya, announced that a Rigondeaux-Santa Cruz had to happen, Santa Cruz’ powerful adviser, Al Haymon, exercised a contract option and bought him out to avoid a fight with ‘Rigo.Frampton’s promoter, Barry McGuigan, has proclaimed his fighter, not Rigondeaux, come il No. 1 super-piuma nel mondo. McGuigan, anche se, is interested in Frampton fighting Quigg in a U.K. resa dei conti, rather than a world mega-fight for three of the four major sanctioning world titles. As the “regolare” WBA champion, Quigg is Rigondeaux’ obbligatorio sfidante, ancora, he apparently wants no part of the two-time Olympic gold medalist because his promoter, Barry Hearn, not only hasn’t pushed the issue, he’s in negotiations with McGuigan for Frampton to fight Quigg.

 

Former world super bantamweight champions Nonito Doniare, after he lost a unification fight to Rigondeaux two years ago, e Abner Mares chose to move up one division to fight as featherweights. And now Donaire reports that his manager was contacted by a Quigg representative to discuss a Donaire-Quigg fight in England.

 

Another two-time Olympic gold medalist, WBO 126-pound champion Vasyl Lomachenko, continually insists that “Rigo” has to move up in weight for a fight to happen despite him having no problems making 126.

 

“QUIGG, Santa Cruz and Frampton have showed no desire to challenge Rigondeaux,” Hyde ha detto. “These three fighters are trying to fool the public into believing that fight il No. 1 guy in the world is not important. While they are lining their pockets with ridiculous amounts of cash for fighting below par opponents, Rigondeaux is forced to wait around until some Asian opponent steps up. This is a sport in which we are accustomed to seeing the best fighting the best but, in the super bantamweight division, it’s the best versus the rest.

 

Rigondeaux will travel to Manchester to fight Quigg, Belfast to fight Frampton, or Las Vegas to fight Santa Cruz. None of these so-called world champions, anche se, will consider fighting the acknowledged world super bantamweight champion. They’re all much more content to hold onto their belts than beating The Man in their weight class.

 

Next month, Hyde reports, Rigondeaux will travel to the United Kingdom in a bold attempt to embarrass Quigg into fighting him. “I don’t like traveling overseas unless I have a fight lined up,” Rigondeaux explained, “but I will travel to England in May to publicly call out Scott Quigg. If he turns down the chance to fight our WBA mandatory, he will be remembered for that instead of being known as a great fighter. While I’m in the UK, I will also go to Belfast to checkout Carl Frampton to ask if he wants to prove himself against the best in his division.

 

Understanding that the top super bantamweight action is currently in Europe, noting a record purse ($2.2 million USD) offered for a Frampton vs. Quigg fight, Rigondeaux is considering a major change in the not too distant future, moving his base from Miami to the UK, if that’s what it takes for him to get in on the action.

 

Hyde also manages former WBO middleweight champion and current International Boxing Federation (IBF) Non. 1 contendente obbligatoria Hassan N'Dam N'Jikam (31-1, 18 KO), former WBA Interim cruiserweight champion Yuri “El Toro” Kalenga (21-2, 14 KO) and Georgian super lightweight Levan “Il Lupo” Ghvamichava (14-1-1, 11 KO) , as well as top prospects such as Cuban super bantamweight Mark Forest (2-0, 2 KO), irlandese dei pesi massimi Con Sheehan and Bulgarian light heavyweight Blagoy Naydenov.

Direttore Gary Hyde petizioni WBA Per applicare lotta per il titolo obbligatorio Tra Rigondeaux e Quigg

 

CORK, Irlanda (Marzo 12, 2015) – Direttore internazionale di boxe Gary Hyde, presidente di Nowhere2Hyde Gestione, ha formalmente chiesto al World Boxing Association (WBA) per imporre una lotta per il titolo obbligatorio tra caccia di Hyde, WBA Super & World Boxing Organization (WBO) super-campione dei pesi gallo Fattura “Lo Sciacallo” Rigondeaux (15-0, 10 KO), e WBA “regolare” 122-pound divisione titlist Scott Quigg (30-0-2, 22 KO).

 

Qui di seguito troverete una copia della lettera di Hyde al WBA:

 

 

Dear Chairman Mendoza:

 

Scrivo in qualità di gestore di Guillermo Rigondeaux, il WBA / WBO campione unificato.

 

I write to request enforcement of the mandatory. Uniquely in the Super Bantamweight Division Guillermo Rigondeaux is the “Champion unificata” e Scott Quigg è il “Champion regolare.”

Clearly as the Regular Champion Quigg is the highest ranked contender in the division. While he was injured he is now back in training and there is no reason why Mr. Rigondeaux non può o non deve ottemperare ai suoi obblighi vincolanti nei confronti del signor. QUIGG.

 

We are aware that there are some discussions about a bout between Quigg and Frampton. Tuttavia, siamo stati in contatto con la IBF e non sancirà la lotta unificazione con chiunque non sia il campione più alto livello che in questo caso è Guillermo Rigondeaux.

 

Suggeriamo rispettosamente che è migliore per affrontare la questione ora obbligatoria e richiesta che Quigg e Guillermo essere indirizzate ad avviare le trattative.

 

Con profondo rispetto,

 

Gary Hyde

 

 

Hyde gestisce anche WBA campione cruiserweight ad interim Yuri “El Toro” Kalenga(21-1, 14 KO), ex campione WBO e attuale International Boxing Federation (IBF) Non. 1 contendente obbligatoria Hassan N'Dam N'Jikam (31-1, 18 KO), e top super gallo prospettiva Mark Forest (1-0, 1 KO).
