Etikedaj Arkivoj: Irlando

Irish amateur heavyweight champion Con Sheehan To make pro debut Jan. 19 in L.A.

CORK, Irlando (Januaro 4, 2016) – Six-time Irish National heavyweight champion Trompi Sheehan will make his long awaited professional debut Januaro 19 in a four-round bout, #Kontra? oponanto esti determinita, at Nokia Club in Los Angeles.
Sheehan is scheduled to be in the swing bout, so there’s a possibility that his first pro fight will air live on the Fox Sports 1 elsendo.
La 6′ 5 ?”, 220-pound Sheehan is athletic, in addition to being a physical specimen, who also captured a gold medal at the European Union Championships.
Possessing tremendous upside, Sheehan decided to enhance his pro boxing career a year ago, moving to Oakland to work with 2011 BWAA Trainer of the Year Virgil Hunter (pictured above with Sheehan). Dividends are already paying off for the young Irishman.
It’s been eye opening, I suppose, because Virgil is showing me the most simple of things, technically, that I’ve never seen before and it’s making a massive difference to me,” Sheehan said about being trained by Hunter. “My power has increased 10-fold with simple adjustments that I have learned from him. It was a bit of a shock because, I thought I’d cracked the technical side of boxing but he’s taken me to a whole new level.
The 26-year-old Sheehan has the advantage of directly learning from one of the most respected and successful trainers in boxing, Hunter, whose top fighters include Andre Kvartalo (pictured here with Con), Amir Kahn Kaj Andre Berto.
Sheehan is the first Irishman that Hunter has ever trained. “Every coach has his own style and mine is old school from Texas,” Hunter explained. “Mine is slip ‘n slide and my fighters need good reflexes and good legs. Cornelius (Con) isn’t a dancer, but he moves the right way, and I like that a lot. I liked what I saw from the first time we met. He keeps himself in good shape and has a good amateur pedigree. I teach a pro style, even to amateurs, and some like Cornelius are better as pro fighters.
Cornelius is a strong kid. He’s made mistakes, but earlier in his life, and that’s a good thing. There’s always a transition period and it’ll take him a few years. He’s already proven his dedication by being here. If he keeps on track, fighting and training in the United States, he’ll get there in two-three years. The heavyweight division is changing. This is like the time (Tim)Witherspoon, (Greg) #Pa?o, (Frank) Bruno and a few others would win the world title and then lose it right back, #?Is (Mike) Tyson came along and cleaned up the division. I’m particularly happy with his progress the last six weeks; Cornelius is focused on doing it, instead of just doing it.
Sheehan is managed by Gary Hyde (Nowhere2Hyde Management), who guided the career of world super bantamweight champion Guillermo Rogondeaux, as well as two-time world middleweight title challengerHassan N’#Akvobara?o N’Jikam.
Con Sheehan has stood out to me as a fighter with incredible boxing skills who, I knew, would benefit greatly with Virgil Hunter as his trainer,” Hyde added. “After two intensive training camps, we are all satisfied that Con has what it takes to be a major force in the heavyweight division.

Batala Raporto: Docherty Stops Kelly to Secure WBU Crown as McEwan, Allan and Robb take Victory Laurels

DochertyWBU

Report by Gianluca Di Caro

Scottish Promoter Thomas Melville made his intentions clear for all to see with his debut event Sabate Nokto, even with seriously major dramas leading up to the event, including losing one of his big draws, former WBO Featherweight King Scott Harrison, from the card just a few weeks before, and two further match-ups dropping out in the days leading up to the show, yet the canny Scotsman still managed to produce an excellent, albeit it smaller, Evento.

Heading up the show was Glasgow’s former Commonwealth Champion Craig Docherty against Dundalk, Ireland’s Michael Kelly for the vacant World Boxing Union (WBU) World Super Welterweight title.

The atmosphere was electric as the two protagonists made their entrance into the arena, the Scottish fans sure do know how to make an occasion like this really special.

Right from the opening bell both boxers made their intention crystal clear and within seconds the toe to toe battle for centre ring began in earnest.

When I say toe to toe I mean toe to toe, whilst much of the action was at close quarters, at times they were that close to one another that you couldn’t have wedged a cigarette paper between them, so much so that referee Lee Murtagh had no option but to warn them about head clashes on numerous occasions.

Now even though they were that close neither man went defensive, both showcasing their exceptional tools of the trade to great effect, with slick hooks and upper cuts coming from all angles.

Docherty managed to just about secure the first couple of rounds, only just as they were so evenly matched, but in the third Kelly stepped it up, making himself a little space he really got into a flow and was letting rip with scintillating shots from every single conceivable angle.

Docherty responded in similar vein, however the slickness of Kelly’s work made it an upward battle for the Glaswegian.

Round four see Docherty change tactics, using his jab to great effect to set up the openings in order to let rip with some vicious body shots, however the Irishman seemed quite happy to soak these up before countering with powerful rights and the occasional double handed flurry.

Round five was a spectacular round, both protagonists raised the pace even further, which ultimately led to some fearsome exchanges. It was really hard to decide who fared the best or if either outfought or outworked the other, yes it was that close.

 

More of the same in the sixth, boy oh boy did they go at it hammer and tongs for the first couple of minutes or so of the round.

As the clock moved into the final minute of the round Docherty began to back Kelly up, before letting rip with a lightning quick right that dropped Kelly like a sack of potatoes.

In an instant Referee Lee Murtagh went to the Irishman’s assistance and waved the fight off, which sent Docherty, his team and fans into a joyous frenzy.

Have to say what an appreciative crowd in attendance, as the cheers of joy for Docherty were outweighed by the magnificent reception they gave Michael Kelly as he rose to his feet, these were genuine fans, their man won but they were equally appreciative of the magnificent performance of the Irishman.

Just before Docherty was crowned the new WBU Super Welterweight Champion the official time of the stoppage was announced, as two minutes and nine seconds of the sixth.

Main support for the Docherty-Kelly title fight was set to be Edinburgh’s Craig McEwan against Newport’s Lee Churcher, however this was not to be due to a weight discrepancy that was unable to be resolved in time, so some quick negotiations led to Nottingham based Czech fighter Vaclav Skromach being drafted in as a very late replacement.

McEwan started strong, taking the fight to the Czech lad, Skromach though is no mug and a nice tidy fighter himself and soon started letting rip with shots of his own.

McEwan started to target the body, coming in from some unbelievable angles to land some fearsome exocets, Skromach adjusted his defenses but clearly some were having the desired effect.

Skromach held his own well for the first couple of minutes but as the round entered into the final minute McEwan stepped up the punishment to the body, culminating with an awesome hook that landed right on the button to send Skromach to take to one knee.

It was a seriously vicious shot, so nobody was surprised that Skromach was unable to continue, again as with the main event the Scottish fans celebrated their man’s victory as well as applauded Skromach as he rose to his feet.

The official time of the stoppage was announced as two minutes and twenty nine seconds of the first round.

Prior to McEwan-Skromach was another six rounder, between Nairn’s Sandy Robb and Scunthorpe’s Jody Meikle.

Robb started fast, utilizing a good stiff jab and big rights that kept the highly entertaining Meikle in check and on the back foot for the first minute or so, but then the Scunthorpe lad began coming forward more, picking off Robb with some cracking right hands.

As the round went on Robb started to become even more forceful, leaving Meikle no option but to utilize hit and move tactics, most of the time he got these spot on but occasionally the Scotsman preempted these and was able to land a big right as Meikle attempted to slip out of range.

More of the same in the second, but in the third Meikle began to play to the crowd, especially when backed on to the ropes, cheekily winking at the ring card girls whilst avoiding shots.

Normal service resumed in the fourth, Robb began cutting off the ring to prevent Meikle utilizing his hit and run tactics, this was highly effective for the Scotsman as with nowhere to move to the Englishman had no option but to box his way out from the ropes, which he did in style.

As the fight settled into the final third, Meikle again began to play to the crowd, but in dong so ensured that this time he had judged the distance adequately to prevent the big looping rights from the Scotsman landing.

The final round was a cracker, whilst still in a similar vein as the previous round, with Robb backing the Englishman onto the ropes as Meikle played to the crowd, there was some excellent and highly entertaining boxing from both parties.

After six interesting, entertaining rounds Referee Lee Murtagh scored the bout 60-54 in favour of Robb.

The opening bout of the night see Rivals Gym’s former unified World Kickboxing Champion Sam Allan in action against Downpatrick, Ireland’s returning Marty Kayes.

Have to say this really was a cracking fight, both protagonists giving their all for every single second of every round, it was a true non-stop battle royale.

After four excellent rounds of boxing Referee Lee Murtagh scored the bout 40-37 in favour of Allan, much to the local fans delight.

Congratulations to Thomas Melville and his team, not only did they overcome the adversity of losing their co-headline bout as well as a few of the scheduled bouts, but still managed to put on an excellent event.

Congratulations are in order for Craig Docherty, who joins the likes of Ricky Hatton, Graham Earl, Kevin Lear, Shea Neary, Tony Oakey, Wayne Elcock, Wayne Alexander and other British legends of the past in becoming crowned the WBU World Champion.

 

Docherty-Kelly Title Showdown Set For 15th August

Glasgow’s former Commonwealth Champion Craig Docherty is set to challenge Dundalk, Ireland’s Michael Kelly for the World Boxing Union (WBU) Super Welterweight World title, on the Thomas Melville’s Colloseum Promotions THE COMEBACK event at the Lagoon Leisure Centre in Paisley on Saturday 15Th #A?gusto.

 

For Docherty it could be deemed a case of back to the future, as back in 2007 he unsuccessfully challenged Lee McAllister for the Lightweight version of the WBU title.

 

Now eight years later Docherty will be hoping that it is a reversal in fortunes and on the 15Th August it will be him, not his opponent that emerges victorious and crowned the WBU Super Welterweight Champion.

 

Whilst the main focus is rightfully on Docherty-Kelly World title bout, it’s not the only bout on the show that has caught both the media and boxing public’s attention, not by a long shot.

 

Main support sees the return of one of Scotland’s greatest boxers ever, as longtime British, Commonwealth, IBO Intercontinental and WBO World Featherweight Champion Scott Harrison makes his long awaited return to the ring, in a ten round bout against a yet to be named opponent.

 

Receiving equal levels of attention, to both the headline and main support bouts, is the sensational Scotland vs Wales battle royale, between Edinburgh’s Craig McEwan (22-4-1) and Newport’s Lee ‘Lights Out’ Churcher (12-3-1).

 

Surprisingly this mouth watering battle, between McEwan, who has fought the likes of Andy Lee and Peter Quillin, and Churcher, the Welsh Area and British Masters Champion, is not for any form of Championship accolade.

 

Another superb domestic match up, between Bellshill’s Ronnie Nailen (3-1) and Bardney, Lincolnshire’s unbeaten Nathan Decastro (4-0), is another bout that is sure to enthrall the crowds, as both are big punchers that are not afraid to mix it up and go toe-to-toe when needs be.

 

That’s not all, not by a long shot, as Nairn’s Sandy Robb takes on Scunthorpe’s highly entertaining Jody Meikle in a six round Light Heavyweight contest, whilst Glasgow’s unbeaten Darren McAdam takes on Nottingham’s Matt Scriven.

 

Also on the card is a Cruiserweight contest between Askham-in-Furness, Cumbria’s Lee Kellett and Nottingham’s debuting Kevin Barker in a four rounder and last but not least Dunfermline’s Alistair Gonsales takes on debuting Ryan Lyall in a four round Super Welterweight contest.

Here is what the main event participants had to say:

DENNIS HOGAN

I know he’s (Abril) a slippery southpaw. I know he’s had some good wins and he’s durable. Being tricky, he can cause problems, so I’ve worked hard to be able to predict the unpredictable in my training.

I’m ok with being the out-of-town guy for this fight. 100%. I did this a lot as an amateur. If you fight a guy from Dublin at the stadium in Dublin the whole crowd is against you.

We teamed up with Greg Cohen Promotions, which was good because I wanted to get to America where it’s all happening. This is my third fight since November and we’re working our way up the ladder. We’re making big movements with every fight. I’m getting more popular here and I’m starting to get known and it’s all working very well.

KENNY ABRIL

Dennis Hogan, we’ve seen him fight. He’s tough and he comes forward. He stays busy. It looks like he comes in shape, but he’s one-dimensional. I think he stands too straight-up at times. Besides that, I really give him credit. He’s a strong fighter.

A win over him would rejuvenate my career. I’ve been off for a year, but I’ve been in the gym sparring and staying active. It’s not like I’ve been at home eating potato chips. It’ll boost me back up and give the confidence I need.

It’s beautiful to be fighting on national television in my hometown. I think it’s God’s way of telling me ‘you’re not done with this sport yet.A lot of people tell me I’m talented. I’m a real good boxer. I’ve been boxing since the age of seven. I’ve had some bumps in the road through my career, thinking after I won my first three fights I was a world champion. But I grew and matured in the sport of boxing and now I know what it takes.

Canada’s Tony Luis Set for Ring Return on Friday, Junio 26, ĉe Seneca Niagara Feriejo & Casino and Live on CBS Sports Network

 

After a successful turn as a televised boxing commentator, Cornwall, Ontario, Canada’s Tony “Fulmo” Luis is set to return to the ring in the co-featured bout of “Ĉampioneca Bokso sur CBSaj Sportoj Reto”, Enhorarigita por Vendredo, Junio 26, 2015, from the Seneca Niagara Resort & Kazino en Niagara Akvofalo, Nov-Jorko.

In his first fight since his highly controversiallossto England’s Derry Matthews for the WBA World Championship last April, WBA #14-rated Luis will face New York (via Dominican Republic) veteran Edward Valdez (13-10-2, 3 KOs) in a 10-rounder.

Biletoj por “Ĉampioneca Bokso sur CBSaj Sportoj Reto” Estas alprezigita #?e $35 Kaj $45, and ringside seating is $75 and can be purchased with a major credit card by calling Ticketmaster at (800) 745-3000, Enreta #?E Ticketmaster.Com or through the Seneca Niagara Casino Box Office: 716-501-2444.

Presented by Greg Cohen Promotions in association with Adam Wilcock’s Fight Card Promotions, Vito Mielnicki’s GH3 Promotions, Dmitriy Salita’s Star Of David Promotions and produced by David Schuster’s Winner Take All Productions, the night’s 10-round main event will feature WBA #11- and IBF #6-rated Dennis “Uragano” Hogan (21-0-1, 7 KOs) of Queensland, #A?stralio (tra Kildare, Irlando) making the first defense of his WBA-NABA US Super Welterweight Championship against local favorite Kenny Abril (14-7-1, 7 KOs) De Rochester, Nov-Jorko.

“Trejnanta estas iranta grandan!” said an upbeat-sounding Luis. “Edward Valdez is a tough, seasoned veteran who can surprise anyone if you sleep on him. He gave Ivan Redkach eight hard rounds and that’s the Valdez I’m preparing for.

Luis did a nice job in his first assignment as color commentator. He worked the Kayode vs. Kisner broadcast from Beale Street last month. “The commentating gig in Memphis was a great experience. I always wanted that job as a kid and it felt like I had been doing it all my life. I learned a lot and enjoyed myself and look forward to doing it again in the future.

A popular figure in his hometown and throughout his native Canada, Luis also adds that he’s looking forward to a strong showing from his countrymen, as Niagara Falls is a very short distance from Canada.

Fighting so close to the Canadian border I’m hoping for a good turnout from my fellow Canadian supporters! I plan on putting on a great show for them and the national television viewers. I hope the strength of this performance will propel me into another world title fight and this time I plan on taking the belt home.

And in two very special added features, American heavyweight knockout artist Jarrell “Granda Bebo” Miller (13-0-1, 10 KOs) will return to the ring just 22 days after his main-event TKO 2 over Damon McCreary to take on local slugger Excell Holmes of Buffalo in a six-rounder; and long-time top middleweight contender “Malbona” Joe Greene (25-1, 16 KOs) will return to the ring for the first time in over two years to face Michigan’s Guy Packer in a six-rounder.

Sur la undercard, two local prospects will make their pro debuts, as Rochester, New York super featherweight Hashuan Sambolin will go his first four against Cincinnati’s Micah Branch; and Buffalo lightweight Daniel DeJesus will make his debut against TBA.And rounding the action, Kazakhstan’s undefeated Bakhtiyer Eubov will look to keep his perfect 5-0, 5 KOs record intact against New York welterweight Jason Thompson (5-10-4, 4 KOs).

Lasta semajnfino mi trovis min mem fluganta trans la irlanda Maro al Belfast por la unua Malta Boksa Komisiono (MBC) Sankciis profesian eventon en la provinco, #?Uko Tolan?? Fianna #Anta?enigo ??Uaille Buaille?? evento kaj knabo oh knabo kaj estis ?i valora ?i.

 

Sed #anta? ol akiranta al la bokso, Mi devi diri kion granda urbo kaj grandaj homoj, Mi estis farita nekredeble bonvenan kaj la fervoruloj sur la nokto, #?E la nekredebla Devenish Komplekso, Estis nur klara imponega kaj vere farita ?in speciala, I?? Certe la mirinda atmosfero kaj energio ili produktis devas havi vere levita la hejmajn batalantojn.

 

Headlining la evento vidas Belfast?? Tre propra Tommy ??Li Tigro?? Tolan defias samrangan Belfast knabo Phil Townley por la #ina?gura irlanda Internacia Middleweight titolo.

 

Tommy?? Kariero entreprenis iom de #revigli?o la pasinta dek du monatoj #a? sekve, Post kiam kuro de perdoj revenanta al 2011 La irlanda bruiser estis metanta en kelkaj grandaj elfaroj.

 

Mi sentis lin estis #malbon?anca ne akiri #almena? tiron #kontra? Georgo Hillyard reen en #a?gusto lasta jaro, Sed eble ke spronis lin sur kiam li venis supre #kontra? Matt Scriven nur tri monatoj poste kaj denove #kontra? Rastislav Frano en februaro.

 

Tiuj gajnas #kontra? Scriven kaj Frano fiksita Tommy sur kurso por lia unua fraplinia batalo, Tiel kiel la titolo pafis, Kaj Tommy wasn?? Lasanta ion ajn al #?anco.

 

#?Usta de la de #amba? protagonistoj klopodis ilian komercon #?e alta rapido, Townley estanta precipe forta venanta #anta?en, Kiu komence metis Tolan sur la #malanta?a piedo.

 

Pri midway tra la rondo Townley subtenis Tolan al la #?nuro kaj komencita labori la korpon de lia oponanto, Tamen dum unu precipe furioza #inter?an?o estis #na?za thud kiel iliaj kapoj interbatalis.

 

Townley eliris la pli malbonan, Kun #a?a incizo sur la supro de lia frunto, Kiu #eli?adi sangon en #amba? okuloj. Ludgvidisto Lee Murtagh haltis la proceedings kaj akiris la ringside doktoro kontroli la incizon tuj.

 

Post kiam purigadanta la sangon de lia #viza?o ?i estis klare la incizo wasn?? Tre kiel malbone kiel ?i #?ajni kaj la batalo #da?ri.

 

Townley estis malgranda hezitema sur la rekomenci, Kiu malfermis la pordon por Tolan amuzi la amason kun kelkaj bonegaj #kombina?o #malanta? grave forta piko.

 

Rondo du multe pli de la sama, Kun Tolan ekreganta la proceedings en stilo.

 

Sur pri la eta marko #a?a #tran?vundi eksplodita turniron sur Townley?? Vango, Devi diri I?? Ne certe se ?i estis de stampilo #a? akcidenta kapo-batalo denove, Kiel #tio ?i okazita dum sed tamen alia tre proksimaj kvaronoj slugfest.

 

Ajna vojo, Townley estis multe bloodied kaj komencanta rigardi nur malgrandan batalon portita.

 

Fine de la rondo ringside doktoro, d-ro Robert Mcconnell kaj #?efa #Tra?mato Medic Chris Robinson inspektis Townley?? #Tran?vundi kaj tiam parolis kun la ludgvidisto.

 

Kun la scio ke se la incizoj malfermas supre denove la batalon estos haltita Townley eliris en pli defenda maniero, Tamen #tio ?i trompas batalanton kaj post kiam pri dek sekundoj #a? sekve #?eti singardemon al la vento kaj #da?rigi la atakon granda tempo, Kio sekvis poste estis #?iuj aga piedfingro-al-piedfingra milito.

 

Kun pri tridek sekundoj de la rondo restanta la neeviteblan okazita, Ne nur havis la #tran?vundi sur Townley?? Vango malfermis supre denove, Sed alia incizo malfermis supre super lia #?usta okulo.

 

Townley #vi?i la sangon for de liaj okuloj kun lia ganto kaj iris rekte sur la atako denove, Sed Tolan estis havanta neniun de ?i kaj lasita #?iri kun granda rajto sekvis supre kun duoblo donis ekbolon de pafoj, En tiel faranta subtenita la nun kovranta supre Townley al la #?nuro kaj eniris por la mortigi kun alia bombardo de pafoj.

 

Kun nura kvin sekundoj de la rondo iri ludgvidiston Lee Murtagh intervenita savi la #?enata kaj bloodied Townley de la neevitebla #knoka?to.

 

Devi diri la batalon povas havi nur #da?ri tri rondojn, Sed estis #ver?ajne pli da ago en tiu #na? minutoj ol vi normale vidas en dek pli ronda ke iris la distancon.

 

Sekvanta la rezulton estanta anoncita de legenda irlanda MC Harry McGayock MBC?? Jennifer Burton kaj irlanda Internacia #?ampioneco Kontrolisto David Walshe prezentis Tolan kun la #?ampioneco zono, Multe da al la #?ojo de la tre #vo?a loka amaso.

 

#Anta? la bonega Tolan-Townley titola batalo, Belfast?? Sensacia Eamonn Magee Jnr estis en ago #kontra? latvo Dinars Skripkins.

 

Kio batalo, Du grave #?ika kaj talentaj junaj batalantoj en ago #kontra? #?iu alia, #Tio ?i havis la makings de estanta vera #klasika?o.

 

Komence ?i estis tre teknika boksa #montri?o, Pli da kiel pugilistic #?ako #mat?o, #Ankora? elludita #?e furioza rapido, #Amba? Skripkins kaj Magee metita sur mirinda #montri?o boksi por la plenplena domo, Tamen ?i pruvis esti mallonga vivita aferon.

 

Sur pri la unu eta marko, Magee malrapidigis liajn atakojn kaj komencis elektanta de Skripkins kun pinglo indikas precizajn pafojn al la kapo kaj korpo, Kiu en #?irado #ka?zi la litovan #?an?i lian taktikon en provo reakiri iun nivelon de kontrolo.

 

Post kiam pri tridek sekundoj #a? sekve de nobla bokso de #amba? viroj, Magee intervenita kun granda rajto al la korpo de Skripkins, Kiu sendis la latvon malsupren al la kanvaso.

 

Skripkins provis #ur?e fari ?in reen al liaj piedoj kiel ludgvidisto Lee Murtagh faris la kalkulon, Tamen liaj penoj estis en vana, Male la juna latvo alfrontis TKOan malvenkon sur la unu eta kaj kvindek tri dua marko de la unua rondo.

 

Magee Jnr estas klare la vera interkonsento, #?I tiu infano havas ?in #?iu kaj kio?? Pli li estis je #kontra? grave bona oponanto en Skripkins, Kaj venis trae kun fluganta kolorojn, Granda gajno kiu?? Pro tio ke certe.

 

Miaj finaj vortoj sur #?i tiu batalo, ?i ne povas havi #da?ri longe, Sed se #?i tiu du iam ajn havas rematch mi deziras esti tie, ?i estis ke bono.

 

Faranta lian profesian debuton estis eksa amatora stelo Matthew Fitzsimmons, #Kontra? samranga debutant Latvio?? Aleksndrs Birkenbergs.

 

Tiel kun Magee Jnr-Skripkins #tio ?i estis alia puto egalis vicon.

 

De la komenca sonorilo Birkenbergs poziciigis lin mem centras ringon kaj rigardita kontroli la proceedings, Tamen Fitzsimmons estis havanta neniun de tio, Precipe kiel ili estis batalantaj #anta? lia hejma amaso.

 

Tenanta lian #fre?a juna Fitzsimmons estis kontenta elekti de lia oponanto kun #la?cela pafoj al la kapo kaj korpo #?iu tempo Birkenbergs intervenus kun atako.

 

Pri triono de la vojo tra la unua rondo Fitzsimmons #pa?i supre la rapidon, Sed tamen #ankora? retenita lian precizecon, Lasanta Birkenbergs neniu elekto sed kovri supre por periodoj de tempo #?is malfermo por sumigila atako prezentis ?in mem.

 

Fitzsimmons #?an?i taktikon iomete en la dua, Iranta al la fronta piedo kaj prenanta la batalon al Birkenbergs rajto de la ekstere.

 

Birkenbergs estas kiel #kura?a kiel ili venas, Li nur tenis venanta #anta?en #?e #?iu #?anco, #Beda?rinde por la junulo #tio ?i ludis #?uste en Fitzsimmons tre kapablaj manoj, La irlandana dancado en kaj lasanta #?iri kun #a? pinglo indikas precizan pafon al la kapo #a? korpo #a? duoblo donis ekbolon #anta? el#pa?i #anta? ol Birkenbergs povus akiri decan sumigilon en.

 

#?Irka? la du eta marko, Fitzsimmons #alteri?i ripon krakanta korpon pafis, #La?vorte, Sed la #kura?a latva junulo nur skuis ?in ekstere kaj provita reveni al lia bokso.

 

Dum la #rompi?o #amba? la doktoro kaj ludgvidisto Lee Murtagh iris kontroli sur Birkenbergs, Kiu estis klare en multa doloro. Post kiam rapida diskuto kun lia angulo ?i estis decidita ke ?i estus foolhardy por Birkenbergs #da?ri.

 

Devi diri Fitzsimmons estas alia #?ika junulo kaj knabo oh knabo faris lin ekzpoziciejo liaj kapabloj Sabate Nokto, Sendube unu rigardi por la estonteco.

 

#Anta? la tri profesiaj vicoj estis kvin Ekspoziciaj vicoj, Organizita de la IBA, Al ekzpoziciejo nur kio la fervoruloj povas atendi kiam la MBC enkondukas la ??Ovice?? Profesia formato poste #?i tiu jaro.

 

La ??Ovice?? Profesia koncepto estas desegnita kiel enkonduko al la profesiaj rangoj por talentaj amatoroj pli konvenita al la pros stilo #sa?a sed kun nura limhava amatora sperto, #A? aliflanke spertita batalantojn de la unlicensed sceno rigardanta fari provan movon al la profesiaj rangoj.

 

Whilst la licencado kaj kuracaj normoj estas #preska? la sama kiel kun la regula pros, La Komencanto Pros vicoj estos de du eta #tempoda?ro kaj nur povas esti egalita kun aliaj licencis kiel ??Ovice?? Pros.

En la fraplinia ekspozicia vico, Marty Kayes sekurigis la IBA irlanda Titolo kun 60-54 Punkta venko super Karl #Sova?ulo.

Manager Gary Hyde petitions WBA To enforce mandatory title fight Between Rigondeaux and Quigg

 

CORK, Irlando (Marto 12, 2015) – Internacia boksa #mana?ero Gary Hyde, Prezidanto de Nowhere2Hyde Administrado, has formally petitioned the World Boxing Association (WBA) to enforce a mandatory title fight between Hyde’s fighter, WBA Super & Monda Boksa Organizo (WBO) Ekstra bantamweight #?ampiono Guillermo “La Jackal” Rigondeaux (15-0, 10 KOs), and WBA “regulajn” 122-pound division titlist Scott Quigg (30-0-2, 22 KOs).

 

Below find a copy of Hyde’s letter to the WBA:

 

 

Dear Chairman Mendoza:

 

I write as the manager of Guillermo Rigondeaux, the Unified WBA/WBO Champion.

 

I write to request enforcement of the mandatory. Uniquely in the Super Bantamweight Division Guillermo Rigondeaux is theUnified Championand Scott Quigg is theRegular 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 cannot or should not fulfill his mandatory obligations against Mr. Quigg.

 

We are aware that there are some discussions about a bout between Quigg and Frampton. Tamen, Ni estis en #tu?o kun la IBF kaj ili ne sankcios la unuigan batalon kun iu ajn alia ol la alta nivela #?ampiono kiu en #?i tiu kazo estas Guillermo Rigondeaux.

 

Ni respekteme sugestas ke ?i estas plej bone trakti la devigan aferon nun kaj peto ke Quigg kaj Guillermo esti direktita komenci intertraktadojn.

 

Respekteme #submeti?i,

 

Gary Hyde
