यहाँ ब्रुकलिन के टिल्लरी होटल से गुरुवार को सेनानियों को क्या कहना था:

**एडम Kownacka**

“मुझे यहां बार्कलेज सेंटर के ब्रुकलिन में लड़ना पसंद है. यह मेरा लगभग आधा कैरियर है जो मैंने उस रिंग में लड़ा है, इसलिए यह निश्चित रूप से मेरा दूसरा घर है.

“शीर्षक पर शॉट के लिए लड़ना वास्तव में प्रेरक है. मुझे पता है कि यह रॉबर्ट के लिए भी एक बड़ी लड़ाई है और उन्होंने कड़ी मेहनत की है, लेकिन मेरा शीर्षक अवसर कोने के आसपास है. मैं इंतजार कर सकता था, लेकिन मैंने इस बड़ी परीक्षा को लेने का फैसला किया. मैं यह दिखाने जा रहा हूं कि मैं जल्द ही खिताब के लिए लड़ने के लिए तैयार क्यों हूं.

“फाइट नाइट पर पोलिश प्रशंसकों को देखना वास्तव में आश्चर्यजनक है. मैं उसके बाद एक एंड्रयू गोलोटा प्रशंसक और टोमाज़ एडमेक था. अब मैं युवा पोलिश बच्चों के लिए अगली प्रेरणा बनने की कोशिश कर रहा हूँ. मैं उन्हें दिखाना चाहता हूं कि वे इसे बना सकते हैं. मैं सही निर्णय लेता रहा और अब मैं एक शीर्षक शॉट के बहुत करीब हूं. रॉबर्ट मेरे रास्ते में है और मुझे जहां मैं चाहता हूं उसे पाने के लिए उसे हराना होगा.

“मुझे लड़ाई की रात में चिल्लाते हुए प्रशंसकों को सुनना पसंद है और यह निश्चित रूप से मुझे बाद के दौर में लड़ने के लिए अतिरिक्त ऊर्जा और प्रेरणा देता है.

“मैं एक शानदार नॉकआउट की तलाश में हूं. मैं यह दिखाना चाहता हूं कि मैं दुनिया के सर्वश्रेष्ठ दिग्गजों में से एक क्यों हूं. मुझे कारोबार संभालना है.

“इस रात दुनिया भर के प्रशंसकों के लिए मेरे साथ इस रात को साझा करना वास्तव में आश्चर्यजनक है. इसका अनुसरण करना एक सम्मान की बात है. यह वास्तव में लुभावनी है. मैं उनसे कहता हूं कि इस यात्रा को जारी रखने के लिए हैवीवेट चैंपियन बनें.

“यह एक बहुत ही अनुकूल प्रेस कॉन्फ्रेंस है, इन सेनानियों के बीच बहुत सम्मान है. मैं बता सकता हूं कि हर कोई शनिवार को प्रशंसकों के लिए एक शानदार शो में आने के लिए तैयार है।”

**रॉबर्ट हेलेनियस**

“मेरे पास शनिवार को एक शानदार मुकाबला करने का अवसर है और मैंने इसके लिए जो प्रशिक्षण दिया है. मैं तैयार हूं और मेरे पास एक महान प्रशिक्षण शिविर है. मैं रिंग में आने के लिए इंतजार नहीं कर सकता.

“यह लड़ाई हम दो हफ्ते पहले अमेरिका आए थे. मेरे शरीर में अंतर हो गया है. ज्यादा, देओते वाइल्डर के जिम में अलबामा में स्पैरिंग ने मुझे तैयार होने में मदद की.

“हम सब कुछ सही कर रहे हैं और प्रशिक्षण बहुत अच्छा रहा है. हमने कई चक्कर लगाए हैं, मैं कोन्याकी के खिलाफ रिंग में उतरने के लिए बहुत तेज और तैयार महसूस करता हूं.

“मेरे यूरोप में बहुत सारे प्रशंसक हैं और यही कारण है कि मैं भी ऐसा कर सकता हूं और इस स्तर पर प्रतिस्पर्धा कर सकता हूं. सब कुछ प्रशिक्षण शिविर में आने के लिए एकदम सही है. यह मुझे कई वर्षों में मेरे मुकाबले अधिक आत्मविश्वास महसूस कराता है.

“मैंने एक टूटे हुए हाथ के साथ वर्षों तक प्रशिक्षण लिया और अतीत में चोटें आईं. लेकिन पिछले दो साल मैं स्वस्थ था और एक ही ट्रेनर के साथ और मैं शारीरिक रूप से उतना ही अच्छा महसूस करता हूं जितना कभी था।”

**EFE AJAGBA**

“मैं हैवीवेट से भरपूर इस शानदार शो में आने के लिए उत्साहित हूं. मुझे शनिवार की रात का इंतजार है. मैं इस चुनौती को लेने के लिए अपने प्रतिद्वंद्वी को धन्यवाद देता हूं. वह एक अच्छा सेनानी है और हम आपको एक शानदार मुकाबला देने के लिए तत्पर हैं.

“इयागो किलाडेज लड़ाई में मैंने उसे चोट पहुंचाई और उसे खत्म करने की कोशिश की, लेकिन मैं बहुत जंगली हो गया और अपने गार्ड को नीचे छोड़ दिया. यही कारण है कि उसने एक शॉट उतारा और मुझे नीचे गिरा दिया. मुझे ठीक लगा जब मैं उठा और मैंने वापस आकर उसे पूरा किया.

“यह सहजन पर निर्भर है कि लड़ाई कैसे चलती है. हमें पता चलेगा कि वह शनिवार को मेरा पंच ले सकता है या नहीं. यदि वह हार्ड चिन मिला है तो हम रिंग में देखेंगे.

“कोजानू को अच्छे सेनानियों के खिलाफ बहुत अच्छा अनुभव है. वह मुझे बॉक्स करने की कोशिश करने जा रहा है, लेकिन अगर वह मेरी शक्ति नहीं ले सकता, तब मैं नॉकआउट से लड़ाई जीतने में सक्षम हो जाऊंगा. अगर वह ले सकता है, मैं एक निर्णय जीतने के लिए तैयार रहूंगा।”

**RAZVAN COJANU**

“एफे एक फाइटर है जिसका मैं बहुत सम्मान करता हूं. वह एक बड़ी संभावना है. लेकिन मैं उसके लिए तैयार हूं. मैं अपने आप में बहुत आत्मविश्वास महसूस करता हूं. मेरे पास छह सप्ताह का एक शानदार प्रशिक्षण शिविर था. हर किसी ने मेरा साथ दिया, मैं उन्हें शनिवार को गौरवान्वित करने जा रहा हूं.

“इस लड़ाई के लिए मुझे हेनरी टिलमैन के साथ काम करने का मौका मिला और इससे मेरे खेल में बहुत फर्क पड़ा. मुझे पता है कि कोच मेरे लिए नहीं लड़ सकते, लेकिन मुझे उसकी योजना और उसके फैसले पर विश्वास है. वह जानता है कि मैं एफे अजगाबा और शनिवार की रात को कैसे हरा सकता हूं, आप मुझे दुनिया को हैरान करने वाले हैं.

“लोगों को लगता है कि एफे पहले ही लड़ाई जीत चुका है, लेकिन मुझे अच्छा लग रहा है. मेरे कंधों पर कोई दबाव नहीं है. मेरे पास खोने के लिए कुछ भी नहीं है. मैं कर्म में विश्वास करता हूं और मुझे विश्वास है कि इस शनिवार को आने के लिए मेरा समय है.

“मैं पहली बार फॉक्स पर लड़कर बहुत खुश हूं. सभी सेनानियों को स्वस्थ रहने के लिए शुभकामनाएं और पूरी रात प्रशंसकों को शानदार प्रदर्शन दें।”

**फ्रैंक SANCHEZ**

“मैं इस बड़े PBC कार्ड पर लड़ने के इस शानदार अवसर के लिए बहुत उत्साहित हूँ. शनिवार को एक शानदार मुकाबला होने वाला है और आप मुझसे शानदार प्रदर्शन की उम्मीद कर सकते हैं.

“मैं शनिवार को जॉय भाग्य की कामना करता हूं, लेकिन बहुत ज्यादा किस्मत नहीं. मैं यह प्रदर्शित करने जा रहा हूं कि मैं दुनिया के सर्वश्रेष्ठ हेवीवेट में से एक हूं.

“वह किसी को नहीं मार रहा है. मेरे बचाव और आंदोलन के साथ, वह मुझे चोट पहुंचाने में सक्षम नहीं है. मेरे पास इस लड़ाई पर हावी होने की जरूरत है.

“कोई भी वह कभी नहीं लड़े, मेरे जैसा है. जब मैं शनिवार की रात जबरदस्त नॉकआउट करूंगा तो वह चौंक जाएगा. मैं आपको शनिवार को रिंग में देखूंगा।”

**जॉय DAWEJKO**

“मैं उन सभी का शुक्रिया अदा करना चाहता हूं जिन्होंने इस अवसर को पाने में मेरी मदद की. मुझे फिर से महान बनने का अवसर मिला है. मैं फ्रैंक सांचेज के बारे में थोड़ा जानता हूं. मुझे पता है कि वे उसे तेजी से आगे बढ़ा रहे हैं, लेकिन मुझे लगता है कि उन्होंने गलत लड़ाई लड़ी. उन्हें मेरे लिए कुछ और संघर्ष करना चाहिए था और मैं इसे साबित करने जा रहा हूं.

“मैं महान आकार में हूं और मेरे पास मेरे ट्रेनर जस्टिन फॉर्च्यून के साथ एक महान शिविर था. मैं वहां पहुंचने के लिए इंतजार नहीं कर सकता और सभी को एक शानदार मुकाबला दूंगा.

“अनुभव इस लड़ाई में एक बड़ी भूमिका निभाएगा. मेरा एक महान शौकिया करियर था और मैंने दुनिया भर में संघर्ष किया. मैं अभी हर चैंपियन के साथ विरल हूं और यह सब मदद करने वाला है.

“फ्रैंक एक अच्छे फाइटर हैं, लेकिन वह मेरे लिए तैयार नहीं है. वह मुझे बॉक्स करने की कोशिश करने जा रहा है, लेकिन मैं बहुत ज्यादा होने जा रहा हूं. मैं नॉकआउट की भविष्यवाणी कर रहा हूं. वह एक बड़े झटके के लिए जा रहा है. मेरे पास कुछ भी नहीं है जो मैंने पहले ही नहीं देखा है।”

**कीथ शेल्डन, प्रोग्रामिंग के ई.वी.पी. & बीएसई ग्लोबल के लिए विकास**

“जैसा कि हम सभी जानते हैं, BROOKLYN बॉक्सिंग अपने सबसे अच्छे समय पर है जब हमारे पास रिंग में हैवीवेट है और इस कार्ड में उनकी कोई कमी नहीं है.

“एडम, आपने बार्कलेज़ सेंटर में अपना करियर बनाया और हम दूसरी बार आपको शीर्षक देखकर रोमांचित हैं. वहां नौ जीत के साथ, यह कहना सुरक्षित है कि बार्कलेज सेंटर आपका दूसरा घर है. हम आपको अपने गृहनगर प्रशंसकों के लिए एक शो में लाने के लिए उत्साहित हैं.

“बार्कलेज सेंटर दुनिया को खेल के प्रति हमारी दृढ़ प्रतिबद्धता को दिखाता है. यह इस साल की हमारी दूसरी PBC लड़ाई है और पिछले चार महीनों में तीसरी है. यह आगे हमारे मुक्केबाजी कार्यक्रम और सामान्य रूप से खेल के प्रति हमारी प्रतिबद्धता को प्रदर्शित करता है.

“पीबीसी के साथ हमारी साझेदारी लगातार हमारे बाजार के लिए महान संघर्ष लाती है और शनिवार की रात कोई अपवाद नहीं है. मुझे फॉक्स को धन्यवाद देना भी पसंद है. बार्कलेज सेंटर में हम बड़े इवेंट बिजनेस में होने पर गर्व करते हैं, और FOX पर प्राइमटाइम हैवीवेट लड़ाई से बड़ा कुछ भी नहीं है।”

Houston heavyweight boxer Darius Fulghum puts nursing career on hold to pursue Olympic dream

फ़रवरी 28, 2020 FNU47 एक टिप्पणी छोड़ें

कोलोराडो स्प्रिंग्स, गोद. (फ़रवरी 26, 2020) – Amateur boxers often take different routes on their personal journeys and Houston heavyweightDarius Fulghum has put his career outside the ring on hold to pursue his boxing dreams.

Fulghum was a wrestler in high school back in Killeen, Texas. He started boxing in 2015 and quickly developed a passion for the “Sweet Science,” largely because of it being a one-person sport. He didn’t need to rely on teammates, preferring to win or lose on his own accord. Although he was talented enough to be a collegiate wrestler, it would have been too much of a financial strain on his family.

“I had that competitive itch and was pretty good when I first started boxing,” Dariuis said. “I knew that I could do anything I put my mind to. I want to redefine boxing. I’m not a typical boxer who grew up on the streets. I don’t even like fighting; I’m passive and have never had a street fight.”

The 23-year-old Fulghum currently has his sights firmly set on representing his country in Olympic Games Tokyo 2020. Pro boxing will follow but, अभी के लिए, he’s training hard to qualify to compete in the Olympics by placing among the top three finishers at the America’s Qualification Tournament, March 26-April 3, in Buenos Aires, अर्जेंटीना. There will also be another “Last Chance” opportunity, यदि ज़रूरत हो तो, at the World Qualifier, मई 13-14, पेरिस में, where the top three there will also qualify for the Olympics.

“It’s so hard to not think about the Olympics all the time,” he admits. “I try to not think about it too much, but it is on my mind because I’ve dreamed of being an Olympian and I’m so close right now. I’ve made the sacrifices to be an Olympian and then I’ll be an Olympian the rest of my life.

“I listen to my coaches. In the heat of the moment, when things are most stressful, I feel like the underdog and I perform up to the absolute moment. It was do-or-die at Olympic Trials. I just refuse to lose.”

Fulgham certainly responded to the pressure of the trials in a positive fashion, upsetting pre-trials favoriteAdrian Tillman पहले दौर में, and then rolling through opponents until he secured the title.

“People didn’t know me,” Fulgham explained. “I was the underdog because I didn’t compete in many tournaments because I was in (nursing) school. My finals were always in December (same time as USA Nationals). I did have a break in my schedule in 2018, when I won a gold medal at the National Golden Gloves Tournament. It’s just the way my schedule worked out. So, I hadn’t fought in many tournaments, but I was able to sneak in when it mattered most.”

Fulghum recently competed in his first international tournament at the prestigious Strandja Tournament in Bulgaria, winning one of two matches. The experience, यद्यपि, was priceless, possibly career changing in terms of preparing for the Olympics.

“Not only was it my first international tournament,” he noted, “it was the first time I had boxed without headgear (as will be the case in the Olympics), and I fought guys from foreign countries with different styles. It was a great experience because now I won’t be going blind into the Olympic Qualifier.”

Members of the USA Boxing Olympic Qualification Team, like Fulghum, are on break before returning for training with his teammates at the United States Olympic and Paralympic Training Center in Colorado Springs.

“I reported there for the first time this past January 2nd and I love it,” Fulghum noted. “Every athlete dreams of training with top athletes where there are no distractions and top coaches. I wake up, खाना, sleep, train and do that all over again the next day. That’s my schedule.”

Fulghum earned his nursing degree last May, but right now and for the immediate future he’s fully concentrating on boxing.

“I put education first and got my degree,” Fulgham concluded. “I’ll always have nursing after boxing. But I dreamed of going to the Olympics all through school. I put boxing on hold and now I’ve put nursing to the side so I can put my all into boxing. I didn’t want to juggle nursing and boxing. I couldn’t be the best at either that way.

“I do plan to turn pro because I love boxing so much. I need to box when I’m young. I’ll go as far as I can go in boxing and I’ll always having nursing.”

Darius Fulgham has taken a circuitous route in life from nursing to boxing. It’ll be worth it, यद्यपि, if he makes it to Tokyo as part of Team USA for the 2020 ओलंपिक.

1988 Olympic gold medalist “Merciless” Ray Mercer Looks back at his Olympic experience

फ़रवरी 17, 2020 FNU47 एक टिप्पणी छोड़ें

कोलोराडो स्प्रिंग्स, गोद. (फ़रवरी 11, 2020) – Thirty-two years after he captured an Olympic gold medal, “Merciless” Ray Mercer fondly remembers his Olympic experience like it was last month. Mercer, who is the only American heavyweight champion to knock out all of his Olympic opponents, went on to become world heavyweight champion as a professional for our “heavyweight double.”

For Mercer, it all started in Germany, where his U.S. Army unit was based. Offered a chance to avoid a 30-day field exercise, Mercer accepted an offer to serve as a sparring partner for the post’s heavyweight boxing champion. Despite never having put on a pair of gloves before, Mercer was a quick learner who was naturally strong, and he rapidly developed into the 1985 यू.एस. Army and Inter-service heavyweight champion.

The World Class Athlete Program (WCAP), in which qualified athletes have an opportunity to train fulltime for the Olympics, didn’t exist back then, nor the Olympic qualifier rules of today. Mercer defeated future world heavyweight championटॉमी मॉरिसन in the opening round of the 1988 Olympic Trials and another future world heavyweight titlist, Michael Bentt (5-0) in the championship final. At the 1988 USA Olympic Box-offs at famed Caesars Pala

ce in Las Vegas, Mercer won a split decision (3-2) over Bentt, but Mercer had already qualified to fight in the Olympic Games by being the U.S. Armed Forces champion.

“When I was in the Army, I had to win in the service, maintain things, and go to the next step,” Mercer remembered. “I had to beat some good fighters on my way to the Olympics, and I was in the best shape of my life. There was more discipline in the amateurs than the professional ranks. The final year before the Olympics, I left my home unit, traveled a lot to fight, and stayed in my trainer’s house instead of living in the barracks.

Mercer made history at the 1988 Olympics in Seoul, दक्षिण कोरिया, when he became and remains the only Olympic heavyweight champion from the United States to knockout all four of his opponents: Rudolf Gavenciak (Czechoslovakia – RSC3), Luigi Gaudiano(Italy – KO1), Arnond Vasnderlyde (Netherlands – RSC2) वBaik Hyun-Man (South Korean – KO1).

“I knew I had to knockout the South Korean in the final,” Mercer admitted. “I just wanted to do what I could to be the Olympic gold medalist. I don’t think I used a jab.

“Winning the Olympic gold medal resulted in some big-time changes for me. I became a celebrity, a household name, and it allowed me to make money as a professional. The best thing that ever happened to me was winning the Olympic gold medal, even more than winning the world title as a pro. Nothing compared to becoming an Olympic gold medalist. I accomplished my dream. I had never dreamed of going pro, until after I won the gold medal.

“It was really important to win that gold medal. I fought with my heart; no money was involved, celebrated so hard that night (after winning the gold medal) that I lost my medal for a few hours. My dream had come true, my hands were shaking, and I lost my medal. What a night!"

Mercer offers members of the 2020 USA Boxing Olympic Qualification Team one bit of advice, “Keep fighting, follow your dream and take that last step.”

Mercer, who was born in Jacksonville, फ्लोरिडा, made his much-anticipated pro debut in 1989, रोकJesse McGhee in the third round of their fight in Atlantic City. “Merciless” won his first 18 प्रो झगड़े, including a ninth-round knockout ofFrancisco Damiani, followed by a successful defense against Morrison, who was stopped in the fifth round.

During his 19-year pro career, Mercer compiled a 36-7-1 (26 KOs) अभिलेख, defeating four world champions in Damiani, मॉरिसन, टिम विदरस्पून वOssie Ocasio. Five of his eight career losses were to world champions: लेनोक्स लुईस, Wladimir Klitschko,लैरी होम्स, इवांडर होलीफील्ड वशैनन ब्रिग्स.

“Ray represents everything that makes USA Boxing proud,"कहाChris Cugliari, USA Boxing Alumni Association Director. “As an Army veteran, ओलंपिक स्वर्ण पदक विजेता, and heavyweight champion of the world, he has demonstrated excellence and professionalism that reflects the best of what USA Boxing has to offer.”

USA Boxing Alumni Association

Created to champion lifelong, mutually beneficial relationships between USA Boxing and its alumni, –मुक्केबाज, अधिकारियों, coaches and boxing fans — The Alumni Association connects generations of champions, inspiring and giving back to USA Boxing’s future boxing champions, में और रिंग से बाहर.

To join the Alumni Association, simply register atalumni@usaboxing.org for a $40.00 per year membership fee. New members will receive a T-shirt, keychain and e-wallet.

Mercer’s outstanding amateur boxing career also included a classic match-up against Cuban great and three-time Olympic gold medalist, फेलिक्स Savon, at USA vs. Cuba dual match, in which Mercer twice staggered Savon, who survived without suffering additional damage only because the Cuban referee made a questionable intervention that gave his fellow countryman time to recover and a controversial 2-1 जीत.

“And he gave me a standing eight-count for no reason,” Mercer added. “I beat that guy and he knows it. We’re still in touch even though he doesn’t speak English. He has a friend translate and we’re in touch on Facebook. We like each other.”

टुडे, Mercer is founding a charity at home in North Carolina, which will include free boxing clinics, लेकिन, अधिक महत्वपूर्ण बात, give back to the community and teach youths, especially those who are bullied, the skills they’ll need to go out into the real world.

Ray Mercer has reached the zenith twice in boxing as an Olympic gold medalist and world heavyweight champion as a professional. Not too shabby for somebody who never really wanted to box.

“Boxing saved my life,” Mercer concluded. “I can’t imagine my life without boxing, it certainly wouldn’t be the same.

“Heavyweights always bring excitement and on March 7 fans are going to get non-stop hard-hitting action from these fighting giants,” टॉम ब्राउन ने कहा, TGB प्रचार के राष्ट्रपति. “Adam Kownacki has established himself as a fan-favorite at Barclays Center and with each victory he puts himself closer and closer to becoming the first Polish heavyweight champion in history. He’ll be given all he can handle by the tough and experienced Robert Helenius. Highly regarded rising contenders Efe Ajagba and Frank Sánchez will share the stage with Kownacki and look to continue to show off their credentials as future heavyweight champions. You’re not going to want to blink when these heavyweights step into the ring in primetime on FOX and FOX Deportes.”

घटना के लिए टिकट, TGB प्रचार द्वारा पदोन्नत किया है जो, अभी बिक्री पर हैं और टिकटमास्टर.कॉम और पर खरीदे जा सकते हैं barclayscenter.com. टिकट अब बार्कलेज सेंटर में अमेरिकन एक्सप्रेस बॉक्स ऑफिस पर खरीदने के लिए भी उपलब्ध हैं.

Kownacki (20-0, 15 KOs) is noted for his tenacity and has been progressing towards a world title shot with knockouts in five of his last seven fights. The 30-year-old Kownacki, who was born in Lomza, Poland and moved to Brooklyn when he was seven, was an accomplished amateur in New York City before turning pro. He most recently bested veteran contender Chris Arreola in an action-packed fight on FOX अगस्त में. His previous two fights had seen him score an impressive unanimous decision victory over former world champion Charles Martin in 2018 and a devastating knockout victory against Gerald Washington in January 2019 लोमड़ी पर. This will be his fifth straight and tenth overall fight at Barclays Center, where he has routinely brought out the area’s passionate Polish sports fans.

“It’s great to be fighting in Barclays Center for the tenth time,” Kownacki कहा. “The last nine bouts ended in victory for me, and March 7 won’t be any different. I’m happy that FOX is showcasing the fight on free television like it was back in the old days, and with the action my fights bring, it’s definitely must-watch TV. I know Helenius will be looking to pull an upset and take my place in the rankings, but I won’t let that happen. I’m already in camp with my trainers Keith Trimble and Chris Carlsen getting ready. इस लड़ाई के बाद, I want the winner of Wilder vs. Fury II.”

A winner in three of his last four fights, Helenius (29-3, 18 KOs) will fight in the U.S. for the second time on March 7, after establishing himself as one of Europe’s top heavyweights for several years. Born in Sweden and fighting out of Mariehamn, फिनलैंड, Helenius knocked out Erkan Teper in September 2018 to rise up the rankings before dropping his U.S. debut to Gerald Washington in July 2019. Prior to the Washington fight, the 36-year-old had won six of his last seven fights, with his lone blemish coming against Dillian Whyte. He most recently stopped Mateus Roberto Osorio in November 2019.

“This is the fight I have been waiting for,” हेलेनियस ने कहा. “All of the years of training and fighting will pay off when we fight on March 7. Kownacki is about to feel the strength of Thor’s hammer. I respect him for taking this fight, but he chose the wrong opponent. This is not going to be a fight; यह एक युद्ध होने जा रहा है. I will be the last man standing.”

Nigeria’s Ajagba (12-0, 10 KOs) has increased his opposition in his recent fights and passed those tests by getting off the canvas to stop Iago Kiladze in December and defeating fellow 2016 Olympian Ali Eren Demirezen by 10-round unanimous decision in July, both on FOX. The 25-year-old Ajagba gained widespread notoriety in August 2018 when his opponent, कर्टिस हार्पर, walked out of the ring after touching gloves to start the first round. Ajagba won the fight without throwing a punch as Harper was disqualified.

Who will be the true king of heavyweights? Wilder and Fury will decide in 2020

दिसंबर 15, 2019 FNU47 एक टिप्पणी छोड़ें

Despite rumors surrounding it for years, professional boxing is still alive, and it’s still far in front of MMA judged by public interest and the prize money. One of the reasons for that are heavyweights, especially Deontay Wilder, Tyson Fury and a bit less Anthony Joshua who just avenged the only loss of his career. फिर भी, there is no doubt that Wilder and Fury are the cream of the crop, and their fight in 2020 will decide who is the king of the most popular division.

We won’t have to wait much for the dream match, as the contract is signed for February 22nd, as the fight will take in Las Vegas, probably in MGM grand where Fury made his impressive American debut, destroying Tom Schwartz in June 2019. Wilder also loves the place, since he became a champion there, defeating Bermane Stiverne and he recently defended the title against Ortiz. But what makes their second bout as exciting as RPG Sex Games, is that no one is a clear favorite.

The thing is Wilder and Fury are extremely different fighters. Fury is in the best shape of his career recently, and when it comes to boxing skills, he is far ahead of Wilder. As demonstrated by their first meeting, Fury is not a one-trick pony as he knows how to change pace and attack his opponent with both hands and in different ways. He can punch, but he is far from being impatient. He is the reason why no one believes that his match against the American will end early. Even on his bad day, Fury can withstand almost anything and knows how to overturn the match. As for the Wilder, he is a whole different story. He started boxing very late, and during his career, he was doubted even by experts that claimed he is a contender at best. There is no doubt about it – Wilder is the one with the ultimate power. Give him a chance to land a solid punch, and that is probably it for the night. That alone is what made him come out of the match with Fury undefeated, rocking him twice. किंतु, Fury is the first opponent that was able to get up after such devastating shots, even though that took away his victory.

It’s hard to predict the winner as it’s much easier to make a list of excellent Android Sex Games. What we can predict is that this fight will highly unlikely be finished in early rounds, as it is highly unlikely that Wilder will win if he doesn’t drop Fury a few times. Judged by that, Fury looks like an early favorite in this one, but when you have a strong puncher like Wilder, it’s almost impossible not to let him land a single devastating punch in all 12 राउंड. If you are neutral and want to see a good fight, this is the one you don’t want to miss!

अक्टूबर 29, 2019 FNU47 एक टिप्पणी छोड़ें

Wilder and Ortiz will renew the rivalry they set in motion when they first engaged in an explosive showdown in Brooklyn that was one of 2018’s best fights. Wilder won that bout by 10^वें round TKO after Ortiz stunned him and almost had him out in the seventh round. The thrilling match featured plenty of twists and turns to necessitate a rematch.

With a combined 66 में knockouts 74 माचिस, वाइल्डर बनाम. Ortiz II is a heavyweight duel that guarantees an awesome display of punching power. The first fight last year saw Wilder dropping Ortiz in the fifth round, Ortiz stunning and hurting Wilder in a seventh round that he won 10-8 on all the judges’ पत्ते, and Wilder eventually dropping Ortiz again with a powerful right uppercut that forced the referee to stop the bout in the 10^वें दौर.

“We are thrilled to add this phenomenal heavyweight rematch between Deontay Wilder and Luis Ortiz to an exciting month of entertainment at MGM Grand,” रिचर्ड स्टर्म, President of Las Vegas Live Entertainment and Sports, कहा. “We can’t wait for fight fans to witness what is sure to be a ‘knockout’ of an evening at the Grand Garden Arena.”

वाइल्डर (41-0-1, 40 KOs), a bronze medal winner for the U.S. boxing team at the 2008 ओलिंपिक खेलों, has more than lived up to the nickname “The Bronze Bomber.” The 33-year-old Wilder has knocked out all but one of the men that he has faced in the ring, making him one of the most feared single-punch knockout artist in boxing today.

The most active heavyweight champion in the sport, this will be Wilder’s third title defense in 11 महीने. He is coming off a highlight-reel first round knockout of Dominic Breazeale in Brooklyn on May 18. Before that had one of the most dramatic matches of 2018 when he dropped Tyson Fury twice, including a stunning knockdown in the 12^वें दौर, on the way to a split draw last December.

Born and still living and training in Tuscaloosa, अलबामा, Wilder will return to fight at MGM Grand in Las Vegas for the first time since he won the heavyweight title with a dominant 12-round decision over Bermane Stiverne on January 17, 2015. The victory had even more significance for Wilder because it came on the birthday of his boxing idol, मोहम्मद अली. The rematch against Ortiz will be his 10^वें खिताब की रक्षा.

“When I fought Ortiz not only did he have the pedigree, but also he had the classification of being the boogeyman of the division,” सईद वाइल्डर. “I agree with those who say that Luis Ortiz was my toughest fight to date. No one wanted to fight him and they still don’t. In the rematch there’s more confidence and more motivation to do what I have to do. I’ve already seen the style before. It’s going to make it more fun. I can’t wait to see how he tries to handle me when I’m at my best.

“This is the second big fight for me under my company, BombZquad Promotions, and I’m very happy about that. We still have a lot of work to do to build it into the kind of company that I know it’s going to be in the future, but it’s coming along. To be able to do a FOX Sports PBC Pay-Per-View at MGM Grand in Las Vegas under my own banner is fantastic.”

Ortiz (31-1, 26 KOs) has ripped off three-straight victories since suffering the only loss of his career in that first match with Wilder in 2018, including most recently winning a unanimous decision over Christian Hammer on March 2. खब्बा, who was born in Camaguey, क्यूबा और अब मियामी में रहता है, is one of the most avoided heavyweight contenders in boxing because of his vicious knockout power and crafty southpaw boxing skills. In the first fight with Wilder, Ortiz hurt Wilder with a textbook counter right hook that nearly made him the first Cuban heavyweight world champion.

रिंग के बाहर, Wilder and Ortiz share a common bond-they’re both motivated to fight for their daughters. Wilder’s oldest daughter, Naieya, was born with spina bifida, motivating Wilder to take up boxing to pay for her medical expenses. Ortiz’s daughter, Lismercedes, has a painful skin condition called epidermolysis bullosa, which results in painful skin blistering and Ortiz has worked to raise awareness for.

“I have to give Deontay Wilder a lot of credit for taking this fight because it shows he has the heart of a true champion,” ने कहा Ortiz. “He is not at all scared to take a dangerous fight, because let’s be honest, this is the most dangerous fight for him. In my opinion, he’s the best heavyweight in the world until someone beats him, and that’s exactly what I’m going to do on November 23 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena on FOX Sports PBC Pay-Per-View. ‘King Kong’ is coming to Las Vegas!”

A three-division world champion fighting out of Los Angeles, Santa Cruz (36-1-1, 19 KOs) holds the WBA featherweight title and will be making his debut at super featherweight and seeking a title in a fourth weight class. The 31-year-old has been a dominant force in the featherweight division since 2015, including two thrilling featherweight title duels against Abner Mares and Carl Frampton each. He lost the belt in his first match against Frampton in 2016, but reclaimed it in their rematch the following year. Santa Cruz has competed in title bouts in 16 अपने पिछले की 18 झगड़े, while picking up belts at 118, 122 and 126-pounds and is coming off a unanimous decision victory over Rafael Rivera in his last fight in February on FOX.

“When I first started boxing my dream was to be a world champion and I’ve been fortunate to win three different world championships in three different divisions,” सांता क्रूज़ ने कहा कि. “I couldn’t imagine winning championships in four divisions. It’s something I never really dreamed of and I’m very happy about this opportunity.

“I know Flores is another tough Mexican boxer like me. He always comes forward, so it’s going to be a fun fight for the fans. I’m really looking forward to fighting again in Las Vegas at MGM Grand. It’s going to be a really exciting atmosphere because you have Deontay Wilder and Luis Ortiz in a heavyweight championship fight, and Deontay always knocks his opponents out, but we’re hoping that our fight will steal the night.”

फूल (24-2, 12 KOs) was originally scheduled to fight Santa Cruz for the featherweight title in February, but severely sprained his ankle in training and had to withdraw from the fight. मेक्सिको में जन्मे, but raised in and fighting out of Houston, Flores rose up the rankings with victories over Ryan Kielczweski, Ruben Tamayo and Mario Briones. After suffering a loss to Dat Nguyen and seeking to rebound, Flores was ahead on the scorecards against Chris Avalos in a fight on FS1 when the contest was stopped due to a cut on Flores’ eyebrow that was controversially ruled to have come from a punch. Flores bounced back from that loss to stop Raul Chirino in April 2018 and also scored a TKO victory against Luis May in his most recent fight on June 29 after the ankle injury.

“I’m extremely excited to be getting this opportunity once again to fight Leo Santa Cruz and win a world title,” सईद फ्लोरेस. “Being the co-main event on this FOX Sports PBC Pay-Per-View card with Wilder vs. Ortiz headlining is incredible. This is a dream come true for me, and I’m going to take advantage of the situation. This moment in my life is something I’ve envisioned since I was a kid. On November 23, you will see the best version of myself as I plan to be in the best shape of my life, with the goal of becoming a world champion, and what better way to do it than in Las Vegas at MGM Grand. Leo and I are going to put on a great show, that you can guarantee.”
