Belfast ace welcomes Manchester man no sábado noite

SAN DIEGO (Junho 6, 2017) James Tennyson feels he’s above domestic leveland says he’ll prove that on Saturday quando ele enfrenta Ryan Doyle for the WBA International Super-Featherweight title at the SSE Arena Belfast, viver AWE- A riqueza de entretenimento em 3 PM ET / 12 PM PT.
Tennyson’s clash with Doyle is part of a huge night of action in Belfast as Ryan Burnett challenges Lee Haskins for the IBF World Bantamweight title.
Tennyson has won Celtic Featherweight and Irish Super-Featherweight titles but fell short when he met Ryan Walsh for the British Featherweight crown last April.
O 23 year old believes he’s better prepared for more title assaults now, and wants to show that in what he believes will be a cracking fight against the English Featherweight champion from Manchester.
“Estou muito animado, said Tennyson. “I’m pleased to be a part of the show and hopefully Ryan Burnett becomes Ireland’s next World Champion and these big nights can continue to come back to Belfast.
I believe I’m beyond Irish title level. I’m not going to gain or learn much more at that level or by boxing journeyman. I’ve gone through that now. This is a fight that I needed and help bring my career to the next level.
I’ve watched Ryan and this is going to be a really entertaining match up. With the WBA International title on the line, it gives it a little more spice.
Usually I don’t look too much into my opponents, I get in there and take it as it comes. I’m confident in my own ability to get the job done. My team already know a bit about the boy so they are telling me the plans which we’ll adopt on the night.
I’ve prepared for a tough fight no matter what so the late change of opponent doesn’t really change all that much for my planning.
It’s all work in progress. I want to get to World level. This is a great stepping stone to help get where I want to be.
I don’t really go in thinking ‘I’m going to knock this guy out’, I like to box. It’s going to be a good fight for the fans to watch. Eu sou um agressivo, come forward fighter.
Camp has gone well. I’m pretty happy going into the last few days. Now it’s all about getting the weight right, all the hard work has been done now. I’m just looking to get this show on the road now.
Paul Hyland Jr faces Adam Dingsdale for his first pro title with the IBF European Lightweight strap on the line, Ian Tims and Luke Watkins meet for the Irish Cruiserweight title, there’s the Cruiserweight debut of Mike Perez, and local favourites Paddy Gallagher, Matthew Wilton, Feargal McCrory and Tyrone McCullagh.

BURNS: I’LL PROVE THERE’S PLENTY LEFT IN MY TANK

Birthday boy looking for ultimate present no sábado noite

Queimada – Indongo unification bout neste sábado on AWE-A Wealth of Entertainment and www.klowdtv.com

AWE NOW ON DIRECTV

SAN DIEGO, CALIFÓRNIA. – Ricky Burns is gunning for the ultimate birthday present this weekend as he aims to add Julius Indongo’s IBF and IBO World titles to his own WBA Super-Lightweight title in their unification clash at the SSE Hydro in Glasgow no sábadolive on AWE-A Wealth of Entertainment and www.klowdtv.com

O cartão de luta terá início às 2:30 PM ET / 11:30 AM PT. AWE is now on Directv channel 387
Burns turned 34 na quinta feira and came face-to-face with the Namibian at their pre-fight press conference in Glasgow.

The Rickster welcomes the unbeaten Southpaw to the venue of his moment of history in May when he became Scotland’s first three-weight World champion with an eighth round stoppage win over Michele Di Rocco.

Burns defended his crown for the first time with a dogged display against impressive mandatory challenger Kiryl Relikh in October. Indongo is the third man to test Burns in the Hydro cauldron, and Burns is in no mood to let slip another chance to create a piece of history as he aims to continue his remarkable career at the very top.

When I first started out you always think about winning belts and being in massive fights, but I never set myself any targets,” said Burns. “I just worked hard and when I got the chances, I took them and it paid off. I’ve had a few bad nights and it took me a while to move down to Essex and get used to training with Tony, but it’s clicked now.

I got the Di Rocco fight and I jumped at it. People noticed there that I still had something to give, I knew it was still there, but there were people that doubted that.

I don’t think about what I’ve done so far and I won’t until I hang them up. In my eyes, a luta é uma luta. It’s always great to go into big fights like this one, but the pressure is big enough in World title fights that I keep stuff like legacies and so on away and just focus on what’s in front of me, that’s the way I’ve always been.

“Não me entenda mal, I’m happy with what I’ve achieved and people always say that I’m a three-weight World champion and only one of three ever in Britain, but I’ve not really thought about it and it’s not sunk in.

I just love fighting. People ask me all the time how long do I think I can keep going and my answer is always as long as I am not taking punishment, still want to do it and enjoy it, then I’ll keep goingand I think that there’s years left in me.

“Estou levando uma luta de cada vez. This is a big, big night, the biggest I’ve had. We spoke about unification fights at Super-Featherweight and Lightweight and now it’s hereI just can’t wait. There were easier fights out there and maybe even more lucrative fights, but this is the fight I wanted and I’m confident that things will go well.

Burns clash with Indongo is part of a huge night of action in Glasgow with two cracking British title fights leading the supporting cast as Scotty Cardle looks to land the Lightweight belt outright when he faces Robbie Barrett and Charlie Edwards and Iain Butcher clash for the vacant Super-Flyweight title.

Rio Olympian Josh Kelly makes his pro debut, his Team GB teammate Lawrence Okolie boxes for the second time in the pros, Charlie Flynn fights for his first pro title as he faces Ryan Collins for the Celtic Lightweight title and Joe Ham takes on Scott McCormack for the Scottish Super-Bantamweight title.

INDONGO: SCOTTISH FANS CAN’T HELP BURNS

African dangerman coming to KO hometown favourite in unification battle

Queimada – Indongo unification bout neste sábado on AWE-A Wealth of Entertainment and www.klowdtv.com

AWE NOW ON DIRECTV

SAN DIEGO, CALIFÓRNIA. – Julius Indongo has told Ricky Burns that the hometown fans won’t help him when they clash in a World Super-Lightweight unification showdown at the SSE Hydro in Glasgow no sábado (Abril 15) viver em AWE- A Wealth of Entertainment andwww.klowdtv.com

A transmissão começa às 2:30 PM ET and it will be the first AWE boxing event on Directv (canal 387)

Indongo is looking to add BurnsWBA strap to the IBF and IBO belts he won in spectacular fashion in December when he travelled to Russia in his first fight outside of his homeland of Namibia and delivered a devastating one-punch KO win over champion Eduard Troyanovsky.

That was a third straight win inside the distance for the 34 year old who carries raw power and is a nightmare on paper as a tall, rangy Southpaw.

Indongo feels that his win in Russia has been dismissed as a fluke though, and he is coming to Scotland to prove that he’s the real deal.

We’re focused and ready,” said Indongo. “I’ve polished the tools and technique for the fight. He’s picked us which is fine with me. It’s not easy to fight someone in their backyard but you need to make sure that you are totally prepared for the task.
We don’t have any doubts in this team. The aim is to keep winning. I’ve heard what they’ve been saying. They said it was a lucky punch that floored Troyanovsky. It’s always easy to talk. Bring Burns in front of me and we will see who is the best.

Indongo says he’s always known that he would need to travel to secure major fights having boxed at home for the first 20 bouts in the paid ranks. The Glasgow crowd are sure to give the visitor a hostile reception as he walks to the ring, but he has a warning for both the fans and Burnsthat nothing will distract him from his task.

Fighting away from home has never been a problem,” said Indongo. “I know that we cannot host such a huge event in South Africa so I am always prepared to travel. There’s only Ricky and me in the ring, the fans will have no effect on me.

The KO will be a bonus but we’re training for hard rounds, I am undefeated and have no doubts that I will stay that way.

We are not that well recognised in the world of boxing but I warn youdo not underestimate us, because that’s what happened in Moscow.

Indongo follows in the footsteps of fellow countryman Paulus Moses who challenged Burns for his WBO Lightweight crown in March 2012, and the ‘Blue Machinebelieves that Moses was short-changed by the judges that night, as was Kiryl Relikh, who was edged out on points by Burns in his first defence of the WBA in October.

I thought Paulus won the fight but maybe he didn’t win because it was in Scotland,” said Indongo. “I don’t think he beat Relikh either, but you cannot look at that, he must not take me lightly or make mistakes.

“O céu é o limite para mim. I will fight anybody, but the dream is to fight in Las Vegas, I want someone to make me a bigger offer to fight there and defend all the titles, including the WBA belt I will win.

Indongo’s clash with Burns is part of a huge night of action in Glasgow, and the undercard is led by a pair of British title fights as Scotty Cardle looks to land the Lightweight title outright when he faces Robbie Barrett and Charlie Edwards and Iain Butcher clash for the vacant Super-Flyweight title.

Rio Olympian Josh Kelly makes his pro debut, his Team GB teammate Lawrence Okolie boxes for the second time in the pros, Charlie Flynn fights for his first pro title as he faces Ryan Collins for the Celtic Lightweight title and Joe Ham takes on Scott McCormack for the Scottish Super-Bantamweight title.

Ricky Burns meets Julius Indongo in an IBF/WBA 140 pound unification bout live on Saturday, 15 de abril, viver em AWE & www.klowdtv.com

SAN DIEGO, CALIFÓRNIA. – Abril 5, 2017 – Ricky Burns and Julius Indongo will clash in a bout that will unify the WBA and IBF 140-pound world titles. The match-up takes place on Sábado, 15 de abril and will be featured live and exclusively on AWE, A Wealth of Entertainment and www.klowdtv.com nos Estados Unidos.

Burns will have the home fan advantage. The bout originates from the SSE Hydro in Glasgow, Escócia. The undercard fights begin at 2:30 PM EST / 11:20 AM PT.

We’re thrilled to bring this very exciting world unification fight to our fans,” stated Robert Herring, CEO of AWE.

Burns of Coatsbridge, Scotland has been a world champion in three weight-classes, and has been competing in world title bouts for seven years.

O 33 year-old has a record of 41-5-1 com 14 nocautes. He has taken part in 12 world title bouts with a record of 10-1-1 in those contests.

Burns has wins over Colin Bain (8-0), Graham Earl (22-0), Haider Ali (4-1), Osumanu Akaba (21-4-1), Yakuba Amidu (16-1-1), Michael Gomes (38-9) and Kevin O’Hara (16-4).

Em setembro 4, 2010, Burns won the WBO Super Featherweight title with a 12 round unanimous decision over Michael Katsidis (28-4). He won the full title with a 12-round unanimous decision over Paulus Moses (28-1). Burns defended that title 3 times with wins over Kevin Mitchell (33-1) & Jose Gonzalez (22-0) and a draw with Raymundo Beltran (28-6), before dropping his title to Terence Crawford.

Burns became a 3-division champion with an 8th round stoppage over Michele Di Rocco on May 28, 2016. He has made one defense, which came on October 7th with a unanimous decision over Kiryl Relikh.

When Julius Indongo knocked out Eduard Troyanovsky he was immediately an opponent I was interested in,” says Burns. “Indongo can clearly punch and that’s an impressive way to win a World title, especially in Russia. It was some shot he hit Troyanovsky with.

It’s a huge fight in the division and the kind of fights I need to be involved in at this stage of my career. There were other names talked about but I wanted the toughest, most dangerous fight out there. Indongo with his two belts was that man.

He is a big tall, rangy, southpaw but bring it onI have no fear of anyone and it is only the massive fights for me now.

Fighting in Glasgow is special for me, the crowd at the SSE Hydro has been electric the last two occasions and I expect it to be no different this time round.

Indongo of Windhoek, Namibia has a perfect mark of 20-0 com 11 nocautes.

O 34 year-old is an eight-year professional, who was the WBO African Super Lightweight champion as he had wins over Zolani Marali (4-5), Ibrahim Class (12-1) and Ishmael Kuchocha (12-3).

Em dezembro 3, 2016, Indongo scored one of the biggest upsets of the year, when he scored a stunning and explosive 40 second knockout over classy and undefeated IBF Champion Eduard Troyanovsky (25-0) in the former champion’s backyard of Moscow, Rússia.

Indongo added: “It’s an absolute honor for me to fight Ricky, who I regard as an accomplished champion. I respect what he has achieved so far but I’m going to Scotland to rob him of his belt. I know it won’t be easy but I’m comforted by the fact that I have a good team and passionate Namibian fans, and I have every intention of making them smile and unifying the division on April 15.

O promotor Yvon Michel define recorde direto sobre eliminador de título de IBF cancelado Beterbiev-Barrera

Ninguém quer lutar contra o invicto meio-pesado contendor Artur Beterbiev (R)
(Foto de Vincent Ethier)
MONTREAL (Março 13, 2017 – Groupe Yvon Michel (GINÁSIO) presidente Yvon Michel respondeu em conformidade a alegações infundadas recentemente feitas na mídia por Sullivan Barrera sobre a GYM e seu invicto contendor mundial meio-pesado, Artur Beterbiev, para esclarecer tudo sobre o cancelamento recentemente anunciado da Federação Internacional de Boxe de Beterbiev-Barrera (IBF) eliminador de título meio-pesado.
“Apesar das reivindicações de Barrera,” Michel insistiu, “ele não assinou contrato porque nunca pretendeu lutar com Artur. Na carta da Equipe Barrera, ele mentiu e mostrou sua ignorância tentando se distrair dos fatos.
“Para a conclusão desta saga infeliz, o IBF me informou que decidiu banir Barrera de seu ranking mundial, ou de participar de uma de suas lutas sancionadas, pelos próximos seis meses. Também fui informado de que, se ninguém no topo IBF 10 está disponível e concorda em lutar contra Artur, o IBF irá declará-lo como seu não. 1 desafiante obrigatório para o vencedor da revanche Ward-Kovalev. Artur estará de volta ao ringue no final de abril, início de maio. A defesa obrigatória para o vencedor de Ward-Kovalev II, ou Ward se essa luta não acontecer, vence em setembro.”
EuAvaliações de peso leve BF: Campeão – Andre Ward, 1. Sem classificação, 2. Artur Beterbiev, 3. Sergey Kovalev, 4. Erik Skoglund, 5. Enrico Kolling, 6. SUSPENSO, 7. Oleksandr Gvozdyk, 8. Dominic Bosel , 9. Robert Goldfinch, 10. Trent Broadhurst.
Abaixo, Michel define o recorde direto, ponto por ponto, nos termos da carta aberta que Team Barrera enviou à mídia.
Michel não negociou com o promotor de Barrera, Kathy Duva, e pediu que fosse para um lance imediato de bolsa.
“Kathy Duva (CEO / Eventos Principais) veio ao meu escritório um dia antes do prazo estabelecido para a aceitação de Barrera para participar do eliminador de títulos IBF para falar sobre a situação. Nossa esperança era lutar contra Barrera, mas porque ele está proibido de viajar para o Canadá, Eu confirmei nossa intenção com a Sra.. Duva para acomodar Barrera e deixar o Canadá e fazer a luta nos Estados Unidos. Estávamos na mesma posição há um ano, quando Barrera retirou-se do mesmo eliminador do título porque não conseguiu um visto para lutar no Canadá. Artur deveria então lutar contra Karo Murat, mas ele sofreu uma lesão e não conseguiu lutar. Barrera later defeated Murat to move into the IBF mandatory position in which he then lost to Andre Ward.
Kathy told me the number she had in mind to make the fight. I said that I would see if there were enough resources for that amount and promised to call her the following day. I did and explained that there weren’t enough resources to meet that purse structure. mesmo assim, not long after I received confirmation Barrera was officially taking the challenge, I then decided to move forward and immediately requested a purse bid date, which is the prerogative of any promoter, knowing what was Main Eventsexpectation in terms of their fighter’s purse. In this business, everybody knows the best way to determine the true market value of a fight is a purse bid, onde os promotores estão avaliando seus recursos e fazendo seus lances de acordo. Ainda tínhamos sete dias para fazer uma oferta, um e outro, e fazer um acordo até cinco minutos antes do vencimento do lance. A Main Events nunca nos fez uma oferta e nem nós.”
O lance vencedor da bolsa da GYM foi $251,000, substancialmente mais do que eventos principais’ lance de $182,000, dos quais Beterbiev receberia 75 por cento do lance vencedor. Barrera teria recebido $62,750, comparado com $45,500 ele teria ganhado se seu próprio promotor tivesse vencido a licitação.
Beterbiev relatou nas redes sociais que sua luta contra Barrera seria realizada em março 4th em Brooklyn, Nova York e Michel informaram que a luta seria realizada no final de março, início de abril, Em Nova Iórque. Barrera treinou para essas datas, mas não recebeu um contrato.
“GYM ganhou a bolsa e de acordo com as regras e regulamentos do IBF, a luta tinha que ser realizada dentro 30 para 90 dias,” Michel continuou. “Nós depositamos $50,000, por regras IBF, e recebeu uma carta de confirmação do IBF, tudo estava em conformidade. De acordo com os regulamentos IBF, dentro de 15 dias depois do lance da bolsa, nós arquivamos contratos para os dois lutadores. Artur assinou cinco minutos após o recebimento do contrato e este foi encaminhado ao IBF. Executamos o contrato de Barrera, envio para Main Events for Barrera com cópia enviada ao IBF. Logo em seguida, recebi aviso do IBF de que tudo estava em ordem e que havíamos cumprido os requisitos do IBF.”
Michel enviou um acordo impróprio para o Evento Principal listando várias datas.
“Nós sabíamos que tínhamos um encontro PBC, ou Abril 14, 21 ou 29. É muito comum que as datas das lutas escritas no contrato inicial do lutador variem uma semana antes ou depois da data listada. I contacted IBF president Daryl Peoples and said April 21st was the most likely date but that it could end up being a week earlier or after. He recommended to be transparent and to write all three potential dates into the contract. We did and then sent it to Main Events for Barrera to sign. Main Events noted that IBF rules said only one date and site could be written in the contract. Daryl complied with the objection so we then officially confirmed April 21st would be the date of the fight and Florida the site. We then sent a GYM executed corrected IBF bout agreement back to Main Events to be signed by Barrera and filed with the IBF on February 16th.
“Entrementes, GYM received a request, from Main Event to produce a Provision of Service agreement for Barrera’s participation. GYM was not obliged to positively fulfill that request but, as a display of good faith, we did so in belief the contract that Barrera would sign and Main Events would file it at the IBF office, on that date, as per its rules. Soon after, GYM received a letter from IBF championship chairman, Senhor. Lindsey Tucker, that all requirements had been fulfilled to officially sanction the bout.
The Florida location for the fight had been selected by GYM for three reasons. 1. Beating Barrera in his own backyard would send strong message for Beterbiev within the division; 2. GYM had received an offer from Miami-based SMY Sports and Entertainment’s president M. Eric Senecal, who wanted the buy the rights to produce the event; 3. GYM’S longtime and very close relationship with Florida-based Warriors Promotions, Senhor. Leon Margules.
Em nome da GYM, Margules reservou o 21 de abril encontro com a Comissão Atlética da Flórida. SMY Sports & Entretenimento fez acordo com a GYM que tinha prazo para depositar a garantia de dinheiro acordada. Eles haviam reservado a arena Seminole Hard Rock em Fort Lauderdale. Se SMY não foi capaz de entregar dinheiro e site, GYM tinha um plano de backup, proposto por Margules, quem tinha uma oferta e um site em espera, Hialeah Racetrack nas proximidades de Hollywood (FL). Não importa o que aconteceria, a luta foi garantida em um site na Flórida, Abril 21st para um evento PBC ser televisionado em FS1.
O empresário de Barrera foi contatado por um dos promotores para ajudar a pagar Yvon Michel e financiar a luta.
“Esta é uma afirmação tortuosa e uma terrível mentira,” Michel disse. “Ninguém que representa a GYM jamais fez esse tipo de solicitação. A verdade é um promotor local, M. Michael Luzbet, quem eu nunca conheci e nunca fiz nenhum tipo de acordo no passado, queria ser um parceiro da SMY Sports and Entertainment. Ele tentou levantar sua parcela de dinheiro para participar, mas SMY rapidamente se desassociou de Michael Luzbet.
“Como o grupo (SMY) estava arrecadando dinheiro não era realmente minha preocupação, mas eles haviam encontrado patrocinadores e contavam com a importante comunidade de Quebec, residente na Flórida naquela época do ano, bem como a importante população cubana e seus contatos com a comunidade russa, para vender mesas VIP e ingressos. It wanted the rights to put the show on in Florida but they were concerned because they had heard a rumor that Barrera hadn’t signed a contract and he was going to pull out of the fight.
They then requested a guarantee that Barrera (who lives in Miami) was going to fight before confirming their money deposit. I was in Quebec City at that time for the Alvarez-Bute fight. Senhor. Lindsey Tucker was there representing the IBF and I spoke to him. He said he believed the IBF had received a signed contract from Barrera. I contacted SYM to say everything was fine and that I had requested a copy (of the Barrera-signed contract) from Lindsey. Daryl People then informed me that there was a misunderstanding and they did not have a signed contract from Barrera. Só então percebi que os Main Events pressionaram Barrera a assinar o acordo sem sucesso. Pedimos ao presidente do IBF que pressionasse os Main Events para que Barrera assinasse o contrato porque, sem isso, estávamos presos na promoção do evento. Isso é exatamente o que aconteceu.”
Team Barrera deu a entender que Yvon Michel não poderia promover um show dessa magnitude nos EUA.
“Eu promovi mais de 200 shows, nunca deixando de lado ou cancelando um único show, incluindo envolvimento em mais de 50 lutas do campeonato mundial e muitos eventos multimilionários, muito maior do que este eliminador de títulos. Esta declaração apenas mostra sua ignorância sobre o que somos e quem somos e foi apenas uma cortina de fumaça para seu comportamento. I’ve promoted shows with the majority of the major promoters in the world; DiBella Entertainment, Warriors Promotions, Don King Promotions, Golden Boy, Main Eventsjust about everybody. It was unbelievable for them to write such an impertinent line.
Team Barrera unjustly belittled the quality of Beterbiev’s last two opponents, calling them cow farmers from Argentina.
This is terrible to be so insolent to fellow world contenders. Both fighters were world ranked in the top 15 naquela hora. (Ezequiel Osvaldo) Maderna (23-2, 16 KOs) had never been knocked out and (Isidro) Prieto (26-1-3, 22 KOs) had suffered only one loss, a decision to the WBC #1 contender Eleider Alvarez. Beterbiev knocked them both out (Maderna in the fourth round, Prieto in the first), so downgrading the quality of Artur’s 2016 opponents was totally unwarranted. If Barrera ever actually got into the ring with Beterbiev, ele teria caído na mesma categoria que Maderna e Prieto, que eram ambos competidores ferozes, mas não da mesma liga de Beterbiev.”
Michel acredita firmemente que Barrera nunca teve a intenção de lutar com Beterbiev por sua parte na oferta pela bolsa e, para encobrir, ele tentou colocar a culpa nos outros. Seu promotor gastou tempo e dinheiro para a licitação a pedido de seu lutador, Barrera, acreditando que ele tinha uma chance legítima de vencer a luta. É óbvio que o sentimento não foi compartilhado por Barrera, mesmo que a luta fosse travada em seu próprio quintal na Flórida.
“A verdade é que Barrera mentiu para desviar a atenção da mídia do fato de que ele não assinou um contrato e claramente não queria participar de Beterbiev,” Michel concluiu. “Não desrespeitamos nenhum candidato que prefira não desafiar Artur Beterbiev para a posição obrigatória. Acreditamos também que a Main Events fez de tudo para convencer seu lutador a manter suas palavras e seguir em frente com a luta.. Main Events não tem culpa. Também respeitamos as habilidades de luta de Barrera, mas não temos nenhum respeito pela pessoa que Barrera é com seu desprezível, pouco profissional, atitude vergonhosa e vergonhosa em lidar com a situação presente.
“Em uma nota pessoal, Eu nunca conheci Sullivan Barrera. Eu nunca tive que me comunicar diretamente com ele, Eu nunca tive que fazer negócios com ele, tudo passou por seu promotor, Main Events, e eu realmente não os invejo! Em breve, O GYM terá dois campeões mundiais dos meio-pesados ​​e posso garantir que Barrera nunca estará em seus planos.
“Mudamos de Sullivan Barrera para encontrar um oponente que tem o desejo de entrar no ringue para lutar contra Artur Beterbiev. Enquanto Barrera ainda será suspenso pelo IBF, Beterbiev será campeão mundial!”
Beterbiev, duas vezes atleta olímpico russo, detém duas vitórias amadoras sobre seu compatriota, Kovalev, o ex-campeão mundial meio-pesado. Seja Kovalev ou Ward, Artur Beterbiev estará mais do que pronto para o desafio de lutar pelo campeonato mundial dos meio-pesados ​​em setembro.

Determined Super Flyweight Jose Alfredo ‘ToritoRodriguez Not Letting Shoulder Injury Derail his Goal of Winning Second World Championship

Former interim WBA Light Flyweight Champion Jose AlfredoToritoRodriguez says he’s disappointed that a dislocated shoulder ended his recent world title challenge, but promises to be back as soon as his rehab is complete.

Em janeiro 29 at the Cotai Arena, Venetian Resort in Macao, China, Rodriguez (32-5, 19 KOs) challenged IBF World Super Flyweight Champion Jerwin “Pretty Boy” Ancajas of the Philippines. 27-year-old Rodriguez injured his right shoulder in round two, but fought on courageously for five more rounds before the referee stopped the fight, per doctor’s orders before round eight.
It was a disappointing result for Rodriguez, whose goal was to win his second world title for the people of Mazatlan, Sinaloa, where he lives.
I worked so hard for this opportunity,” said a dissatisfied Rodriguez. “I had all the confidence and training I needed. But then his head collided with my shoulder accidentally in round two and I felt a pop. I knew at that moment my fight was over. After that I was fighting a skilled champion using only one arm.
Rodriguez says he’s already hard at work on healing and re-strengthening the injured arm, with a goal of returning for another shot at a belt.
I will not let this bad luck stop me from my goal to win another world championship. Se alguma coisa, this only makes me want it more. I will be back to fight whoever I have to, to get back to a world title fight and this time, god willing, win.
Rodriguez’s manager, José A. Acevedo of Free Agent Boxing Management, says he’s proud of his fighter, no matter the outcome of his last fight.

Jose fought for 15 minutes against one of the division’s best fighters with a dislocated shoulder. The pain he must have fought through is unimaginable. I admire his dedication and courage. He is a true warrior. He will be back. Thank you to the IBF and the people of China and to the team of Jerwin Ancajas for the opportunity they gave us.

IBF Flyweight World Champion John Riel Casimero to Relinquish Title and Campaign at Super Flyweight

Former IBF World Light Flyweight and current IBF Flyweight World Champion John Riel “Quadro Alas” Casimero and his team have made the decision to relinquish his title and campaign in the super flyweight division.
Casimero (23-3, 15 KOs), who stopped Englishman Charlie Edwards in 10 rounds last September at the O2 Arena in London, will now go gunning for the 115-lb division’s top dogs including IBF World Champion Jerwin Acajas and Nicaragua’s Román “Chocolatito” González.
26-year-old Casimero, from Cebu City, Filipinas, says he’s looking forward to the opportunity to join the greats of Philippines boxing.
To win my third title would be a great honor for me and put my name in with some of the best fighters my country has ever produced,” said Casimero. “I will be immediately looking to make an impact and fight the big fights that allow me the opportunity.
Casimero’s promoter, Sampson Lewkowicz de Sampson Boxe, says Casimero is more than ready for the move.

He’s so strong and he keeps growing,” disse Lewkowicz. “It is time for John Riel to move up and secure his place in Philippines boxing history. It is our hope to quickly face Acajas and Chocolatito next year. That is what we will work to make happen.
