QUINCY, Masse. (Novembre 1, 2021) – Granite Chin Promotions most recent signee, New England welterweight champion Mike “Bad Boy” Ohan (13-1, 7 KOs), will close out 2021 headlining “Championship Road," le samedi soir, Novembre 13, streaming live Saturday evening, Novembre 13, surbxngtv.com, de The Rim à Hampton, New Hampshire.
Ohan, fighting out of Holbrook (MA), will be in his first scheduled 10-round bout against Mexican challenger Israel “Filipino Tigre” Rojas (14-24, 5 KOs) in a super lightweight, combat sans titre.
“Ten rounds means a lot to me,” Ohan said. “It’s something I’ve watched my entire life because all legends fought 10-rounders. This is special for me. I’m ready to go and I will outclass my opponent.”
Ohan captured the vacant New England title last November, quand il a remporté une décision unanime en 8 rounds contre Ryan Dibartolomeo, suivi d'une défense de titre réussie lors de son dernier combat en juin, quand le challenger Tyrone Luckey a pris sa retraite après les cinq tours.
The New England title is a stepping-stone and next year I feel like I can collect more title belts next year," il ajouta. “I signed with Chris (Traietti, president of Granite Chin Promotions) because I want to be in big fights. Je ne peux pas attendre pour ce combat, I’m already in top shape. Two guys I recently defeated recently knocked out undefeated opponents, (Eric) Palmer (WSD6 vs. 8-0-1 Ruddicus Livsey) and Luckey (WKO1 and WKO6 vs. 7-0-1 Eduardo Aguilar)."
A former 2-time Southern New England Golden Gloves champion, the now 27-year-old Ohan is the son of a former prizefighter, middleweight Mike Ohan (14-6-2, 11 KOs – 1983-95), who sparred “Marvelous” Marvin Hagler. Ohan, Jr’s grandfather on his mother’s side also boxed.
“I always looked up to my father as a fighter,” Ohan., Jr. mentionné, “but he didn’t want me to box. I started late and didn’t go to the gym until I was 16 to help stay out of trouble. My father’s supportive and he goes to my fights. I fell in love with boxing right away and I feel even stronger about it today.”
Ohan’s birth name is Ohanian, but he is Irish. “It’s in my blood," il expliqua. “It goes back to the old bare-knuckle days. My father is Irish on his mother’s side, Armenian on his father’s. My grandmother is Irish on both sides. Si, I have a lot of Irish in me from my parents.”
