WARD-KOVALEV 2: “THE REMATCH” SET FOR Lørdag, Juni 17, 2017

AT MANDALAY BAY EVENTS CENTER, LAS VEGAS

PRESENTERT LIVE BY HBO PAY-per-view®

 

NEW YORK, NY (April 19, 2017) - Reigning WBA World Super Bantamweight Champion Guillermo “El Chacal” Rigondeaux (17-0, 11 KOs) will face WBA interim titleholder Moises “Chucky” Flores (25-0, 17 KOs) in a long-awaited mandatory 12-round WBA title defense that will tarnish one fighter’s perfect record. Rigondeaux vs. Flores has officially been added to the Pay-Per-View undercard of Ward-Kovalev 2: “The Rematch” at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas on Lørdag, Juni 17. The championship event, presented by Corona Extra, will be produced and distributed live by HBO Pay-Per-View® begynner på 9:00 pm. OG/6:00 pm. PT.

 

“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 [James] Dickens,” said 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 pounds. I’m ready to give fans the best fight out there, and the best is to come the evening of Juni 17."

 

“I’m very excited to have my world title fight with Guillermo Rigondeaux rescheduled for Lørdag, Juni 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,”Sa Tom Brown, President av TGB Kampanjer. “Chucky is well prepared and looking forward to making the Mexican fans proud of their new World Champion on Juni 17."

 

Guillermo “El Chacal” Rigondeaux (17-0, 11 KOs), was one of the most celebrated amateur boxers in Cuba before defecting and making his professional debut on May 22, 2009 i Miami, Florida. High expectations had no ill effect on Rigondeaux as he tore through his next five opponents. November 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 profesjonelle bouts. På April 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. I mai 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 Juli 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 Juni 17 in his title defense against interim champion Moises Flores.

 

Moises “Chucky” Flores (25-0, 17 KOs) learned the fight game growing up in Guadalajara, Mexico, 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 pounds, 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 feet 9 inches. Som sådan, 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, Mexico. 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. debut in September 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, i november 2014. That victory set up a 122-pound title shot against interim WBA World Super Bantamweight Champion Oscar Escandon in Carson, California, i april 2015. In an electrifying, all-action brawl, Flores earned a split decision to win the title. In his last two fights, 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 Juni 17 when he faces current champion Guillermo Rigondeaux in a 12-round championship showdown.

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” Blomster. “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’ manager accepts offer From Vasyl Lomachenko’s manager

Legg igjen en kommentar

CORK, Irland (Juli 13, 2015) – Irishman Gary Hyde, leder av enhetlig super bantamvekt (122 lbs.) verdensmester Regning “The Jackal” Rigondeaux (15-0, 10 KOs), har akseptert i prinsippet tilbudet fra Egis klima, leder i World Boxing Organization (WBO) fjærvekt (126 lbs.) mester Vasyl “Hi-Tech” Lomachenko (4-1, 2 KOs), for en Super Fight.

 

Rigondeaux er regjerende World Boxing Association (WBA) Super, WBO og The Ring magasinets super bantamvekt mester.

 

Cuban-innfødte Rigondeaux, som nå bor i Miami, og ukrainsk-fødte Lomachenko er begge to OL-gullvinnere.

 

“'Rigo’ vil kjempe Lomachenko på en catchweight av 124 pounds, som bør være noe problem for Lomachenko fordi han veide 125 pounds for en av hans profesjonelle kamper, Hyde sa. “'Rigo’ er en liten 122-punds som kunne gjøre 118 uten mye bråk, men han ville gi bort størrelse og vekt fordeler til ansikt Lomachenko.

“Vi vil insistere på en rehydrering paragrafen 135 pounds for fight night. Hvis Klimas samtykker til dette, deretter, vi har en kamp. Lomachenko er en mesterlig fighter som 'Rigo’ og denne kampen- opp vil være en klassiker. Vi har et par av to OL-vinnere og aktuelle verdensmestere kommer på det. Jeg tror 'Rigo’ er mer glupsk av de to jagerfly, og jeg mener bestemt 'Rigo’ vil dominere Lomachenko. Klima, du vet hva du må gjøre for å gjøre kampen, bare plukke opp telefonen og ringe meg. 'Rigo’ er klar!”

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

Legg igjen en kommentar
CORK, Irland (April 12, 2015) – Unified super bantamweight world champion Regning “The Jackal” Rigondeaux (15-0, 10 KOs), 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 KOs), the World Boxing Association (WBA) “regulær” 122-pund divisjon titlist.

 

A month ago in an unusual move, Rigondeaux’ sjef 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) og The Ring magasinets super bantamvekt mester.

 

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

 

The top three super bantamweights in the world outside of Rigondeaux – International Boxing Federation (IBF) og World Boxing Council (WBC) mestere, Carl Frampton og Leo Santa Cruz, henholdsvis, plus Quigg – have avoided the Cuban great like the plaque. Once Santa Cruz’ promoter 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, as the No. 1 super featherweight in the world. McGuigan, skjønt, is interested in Frampton fighting Quigg in a U.K. showdown, rather than a world mega-fight for three of the four major sanctioning world titles. As the “regulær” WBA champion, Quigg is Rigondeaux’ obligatorisk utfordreren, ennå, 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, og 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 Lomatsjenko, continually insists that “Linje” 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 sa. “These three fighters are trying to fool the public into believing that fight 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, skjønt, 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) Do Not. 1 obligatorisk kandidat Hassan N'Dam N'Jikam (31-1, 18 KOs), former WBA Interim cruiserweight champion Yuri “El Toro” Kalenga (21-2, 14 KOs) and Georgian super lightweight Levan “The Wolf” Ghvamichava (14-1-1, 11 KOs) , as well as top prospects such as Cuban super bantamweight Mark Forest (2-0, 2 KOs), Irish heavyweight Med Sheehan and Bulgarian light heavyweight Blagoy Naydenov.

Manager John Seip signerer italiensk super mellomvekt prospektet Daniele Marco Scardina

(L-R) – Daniel Mark Scardina og John Seip

 

MIAMI (April 6, 2015) – Veteran boksing sjef John Seip har signert høyt dekorert italiensk amatør bokser Daniel Mark Scardina til en eksklusiv ledelses kontrakt.

 

Seip er best kjent for guiding Peter “Kid Chocolate” Quillin til World Boxing Organization (WBO) verden mellomvekt tittel. De innfødte New Yorker forvalter også stigende britisk super mellomvekt Steed “Stallion” Woodall (7-0-1, 5 KOs).

 

Den 21 år gamle Scardina hyller fra Rozzano, en by med mindre enn 40,000 mennesker i Lombardia. Han startet boksing i 2008 i en alder av 16, følgende i sin onkels fotspor som var en bokser på den tiden, samt Daniele rollemodell.

 

Scardina, som hadde 56 amatør bouts, fangede topps i en rekke italienske turneringer inkludert Rovereto National, National Silver Glove, og to nasjonal Golden Gloves. Han vant også en bronsemedalje i en internasjonal begivenhet.

 

I 2013, han eske for Italia Thunder Boxing Team i World Series of Boxing, vant sin eneste kamp mot en tysk motstander.

 

Scardina først fanget Seip oppmerksomhet på den verdensberømte 5th St. Gym i Miami Beach, opprinnelig åpnet i 1950 av Chris Dundee, og hjemmet til utallige verdensmestere har trent det inkludert Muhammad Ali, Carmen Basilio, Willie Pastrano, Emile Griffith, Archie Moore, Roberto Duran, Sonny Liston og Willie Pep. Den rike tradisjonen fortsetter med den nye 5th St. Gym, ligger i nærheten på 1434 Alton gate, hvor topp krigere fra hele verden som Bernard Hopkins fortsatt trene.

 

“Første gang jeg så ham trene på 5th St. Gym og han så ut som en typisk amatør,” Seip forklarte. “Han kastet brede slag og visste ikke hvordan å kaste en god jab. Trainers Guy Laieta og Dino Spencer begynte å jobbe med ham, og nå har han ved hjelp av hans rekkevidde, slåss på avstand, og kaster kombinasjoner av jabs og kroker. Han er lidenskapelig opptatt av boksing, lytte og lære hver dag. Daniele har god hånd fart og kraft. Han er en kjekk gutt, også. Jeg så noe i ham, immaterielle eiendeler, og bestemte seg for å signere ham.

 

“Dino er en eier som har skapt en top-notch treningsstudio med flott sparring muligheter i en atmosfære med så mange dyktige krigere som virkelig presser hverandre. Det er allerede klart at Danielle har forbedret sitt ferdighetstrening der. Han er lang, rask og kraftig. Hans arbeidsmoral er utrolig; Han er den første i gym, siste til å forlate. Du kan ikke skade denne gutten, enten. Vi alle tror at han har en veldig lys fremtid.”

 
Scardina treffer heavy-bag på 5th St. Gym i Miami Beach

I motsetning jagerfly fra Russland og tidligere Sovjet-blokken nasjoner, samt de fra Latin-Amerika som kommer til USA for å etablere sine profesjonelle boksekarriere, Italienskfødte jagerfly sjelden har fulgt den samme ruten som Scardina, som flyttet til Miami i fjor og sover på gulvet i sin brors leilighet.

 

Den ensomme italienskfødte verdensmester som kjempet profesjonelt i Amerika er Vito Antuofermo (50-7-2, 21 KOs), som var WBC / WBA mellomvekt mester i 1979-1980. Antuofermo, skjønt, flyttet med sin familie til Brooklyn fra Puglia, Italia da han var 17 og han lærte å bokse i Amerika.

 

“Jeg har alltid ønsket å være en mester i Amerika,” Scardina sa. “Det er den amerikanske drømmen for meg. Jeg tror jeg vil ha en stor mulighet i dette landet til å være den største bokseren jeg kan være med riktig hjelp. John Seip er den rette lederen for meg fordi han mener vi kan VM sammen som et team.”

 

Scardina favoritt boksere er Mike Tyson, Muhammad Ali, Guillermo Rigondeaux og Miguel Cotto. “Jeg jobber med perfeksjon som en utenfor fighter og til hoved armene mine tettere,” Scardina lagt. Jeg kjemper for å bli verdensmester.”

 

Scardina forventes å gjøre sin pro debut i mai eller juni.

Manager Gary Hyde begjærer WBA å håndheve obligatorisk tittelen kampen mellom Rigondeaux og Quigg

Legg igjen en kommentar

 

CORK, Irland (Mars 12, 2015) – Internasjonal boksing sjef Gary Hyde, president i Nowhere2Hyde Ledelse, har formelt begjært World Boxing Association (WBA) å håndheve en obligatorisk tittelen kampen mellom Hyde fighter, WBA Super & World Boxing Organization (WBO) super bantamvekt mester Regning “The Jackal” Rigondeaux (15-0, 10 KOs), og WBA “regulær” 122-pund divisjon titlist Scott Quigg (30-0-2, 22 KOs).

 

Under finner en kopi av Hyde brev til WBA:

 

 

Dear Chairman Mendoza:

 

Jeg skriver som leder av Guillermo Rigondeaux, Unified WBA / WBO Champion.

 

I write to request enforcement of the mandatory. Uniquely in the Super Bantamweight Division Guillermo Rigondeaux is the “Enhetlig Champion” og Scott Quigg er “Regelmessig Champion.”

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 ikke kan eller bør ikke oppfylle sine obligatoriske forpliktelser mot Mr. Quigg.

 

We are aware that there are some discussions about a bout between Quigg and Frampton. Men, vi har vært i kontakt med IBF, og de vil ikke sanksjonere foreningen kampen med noen andre enn det høyeste nivået mester som i dette tilfellet er Guillermo Rigondeaux.

 

Vi respekt tyder på at det er best å forholde seg til den obligatoriske spørsmålet nå og be om at Quigg og Guillermo rettes å begynne forhandlinger.

 

Ærbødigst,

 

Gary Hyde

 

 

Hyde forvalter også WBA Interim Cruiservekt mester Yuri “El Toro” Kalenga(21-1, 14 KOs), tidligere WBO mellomvekt mester og nåværende International Boxing Federation (IBF) Do Not. 1 obligatorisk kandidat Hassan N'Dam N'Jikam (31-1, 18 KOs), og topp super bantamvekt prospektet Mark Forest (1-0, 1 KO).

(L-R) – Mark Forest & trener Joe Goossen

CORK, Irland (Februar. 12, 2015) – Feiret cubanske amatør bokser Mark Forest vil gjøre sin profesjonelle debut i morgen natt (Fri., Februar. 13) i en fire-runde super bantamvekt bout mot veteran Ignac “Test” Kassai ved 5 Stjerners Banquet Hall i Queens, New York.

 

En tre-tiden cubanske nasjonal mester, 25-åringen Stal beseiret 2012 OL-gullvinner Robeisy Rameriez 14 måneder siden i en oppsiktsvekkende nasjonale mesterskapet finalen.

 

Kjemper som en semi-pro i World Series of Boxing (WSB) for ubeseiret 2014 teamet mester Cuba Domadores, Forestal var ubeseiret i tre WSB kamper før defecting til USA i april i fjor.

 

Stal signert en kontrakt denne fortid oktober med Irland-baserte, Internasjonal boksing sjef Gary Hyde, president i Nowhere2Hyde Ledelse. Hyde forvalter også til stede, tidligere og fremtidige verdensmestere som World Boxing Association (WBA) Super & World Boxing Organization (WBO) super bantamvekt mester og to ganger cubanske OL-gullvinner, Regning “The Jackal” Rigondeaux (15-0, 10 KOs), WBA Interim Cruiservekt mester Yuri “El Toro” Kalenga (21-1, 14 KOs), tidligere WBO mellomvekt mester og nåværende International Boxing Federation (IBF) Do Not. 1 obligatorisk kandidat Hassan N'Dam N'Jikam (31-1, 18 KOs), og verden amatørmesteren Blagoy Naydenov.

 

“Marcos Stal er en utmerket ung fighter som har en actionfylt stil,” Hyde sa. “Han har det som trengs for å bli verdensmester. Vi kunne ikke finne en USA-basert motstander å kjempe Marcos fordi de sa han var en annen Rigondeaux og olympisk mester. Mens han slo en olympisk mester, Marcus var ikke en Olympian. Vi fløy i sin motstander fra Ungarn. Kasai er en 56-kamp veteran som har kjempet noen av de beste europeerne som IBF super bantamvekt mester Carl Frampton, verden tittel utfordrere Martin Ward, Pulver Zsolt og Alexander Miskirtchian, og tidligere europeisk mester Anthony Settoul.”

 

Stal er en 5′ 8″ southpaw som vil arbeide i den 122-kilos super bantamvekt divisjon, samme vektklasse hans landsmann og stall Rigondeaux regler.

 

“Guillermo Rigondeaux er en super mester og i Cuba jeg så opp til ham som sin yngre bror,” Stal lagt. “Han har dominert super bantamvekt divisjon og jeg vil snart bli med ham på toppen.”

 

Bor i Los Angeles og trent der av Joe Goossen, Stal nest pro kampen er foreløpig planlagt for Mars 6 i nærheten Glendale, California.
