ATLANTIC CITY (April 13, 2019) - Claressa Shields er den ubestridte mellemvægt mester af verden. Den 24-årige Flint, mig. indfødte leverede den bedste ydeevne af sin karriere og cruisede til en enstemmig beslutning i Tysklands Christina Hammer lørdag på SHOWTIME i velsagtens de mest betydningsfulde kvinder boksekamp i historien. Dommerne scorede kampen 98-92 og 98-91 to gange.


De to-time olympiske guld-medaljevinder Shields (9-0, 2 KOS), der kom ind i kampen holder IBF, WBA og WBC 160-pund titler, fremviste hendes komplet arsenal af færdigheder i dominerende ydelse og nu slutter sig til Terrence Crawford, Jermain Taylor, Bernard Hopkins, Oleksandr Usyk og kvinders weltervægt Cecilia Brækhus som de eneste krigere for at have forenet alle fire store verden titler i enhver vægtklasse.


Christina Hammer (24-0, 11 KOS), der ejede WBO bælte ind i kampen, havde hende jab stort set neutraliseret og hendes forsvar udnyttet fra start til slut. Shields landede en bemærkelsesværdig 44% af hendes magt slag og landede på 112 samlede slag i forhold til netop 49 af Hammer. Som imponerende som hendes forbrydelse var, Shields’ forsvar og hoved bevægelse var pletfri Hammer var i stand til at forbinde på bare 13% af hendes samlede slag, 11% af hendes jabs og 18% af hendes magt skud.


Tale til SHOWTIME Hall of Fame analytiker Steve Farhood efter den historiske nat for kvinders boksning, den frimodige og følelsesmæssige Shields holdt intet tilbage.


”Jeg er den største kvinde af hele tiden,”Sagde Shields, som næsten fortjent et stop i løbet af en spærreild i de afsluttende øjeblikke af den ottende runde. "Jeg gjorde det. Hun vandt ikke en enkelt runde. Jeg næsten bankede hende ud. Jeg sværger, jeg føler, at jeg drømmer lige nu. Tak til Christina Hammer og hendes team. De sagde, at hun havde en hård jab og de var ikke lyve. Hendes jab er slukket kæden.


”Jeg var bare beregne i første runde, og efter at jeg begyndte at plukke hende fra hinanden,”Fortsatte hun. ”Jeg vidste, at jeg kunne såre hende. Jeg troede, jeg færdig med sin runde otte. Jeg troede kampen skulle have været stoppet. Hun holder fast mig. Jeg fortalte bare mig selv, hold hovedet koldt, hold hovedet koldt. Jeg forsøgte at få den perfekte punch til få hende ud derfra.”


Frisk fra den største sejr i sin professionelle karriere, den nyligt kronede ubestridte verdensmester allerede har sine seværdigheder indstillet på en anden modstander.


”Kvinders boksning, vi er i brand. Jeg kan ikke vente med at se den næste super kamp. Give me Cecilia Brækhus at 154 pounds. Det er der jeg vil næste. Enten hende eller Savannah Marshall.”


”Jeg kæmpede ikke meget god eller hurtig,”Sagde en dæmpet Hammer. ”Det er boksning, alt kan ske. Jeg ønskede denne kamp. Hun vandt, respekt for hende. Hun er en sej, stærk kvinde, og det er alt, jeg kan sige.


”Hun er hurtigt, hun kommer frem. Hun har hurtige hænder. Jeg kunne ikke lande min jab så god som jeg havde forventet. Jeg kommer tilbage, og jeg vil være tilbage stærkere.”


“Jeg tror aftenens kamp vil gå over i historiebøgerne som en episk kamp med folk som Ali-Frazier, Leonard-Hearns og De La Hoya-Trinidad,” Said Dmitriy Salita, Formand for Salita Promotions.“Med denne dominerende og fængslende præstation at blive kronet ubestridte mellemvægt mester sammen med sin liste over rekordstort resultater, Claressa Shields er godt på vej til at blive som æres som Muhammad Ali, Sugar Ray Robinson, Serena Williams, Michael Jordan, Pele og andre på toppen af ​​deres spil.”


I co-featured Bout, Jermaine Franklin (18-0, 13 KOS), bredt anerkendt som den øverste amerikanske sværvægter udsigten, holdt sin ubesejrede rekord intakt med en 10-round enstemmig beslutning i løbet af tidligere Nej. 1-rangeret US. amatør Rydell Booker (25-2, 12 KOS). Dommerne scorede kampen 99-91 og 98-91 to gange.


Den 25-årige Franklin dikterede tempoet hele og var langt mere aktiv og aggressiv end sin 38-årige modstykke. Booker havde sine øjeblikke, især i de tidlige runder, da han landede flere flush magt skud, men den ungdommelige Franklin trukket væk i anden halvdel af kampen som Booker træt og Franklin målrettede kroppen. Franklin gennemsnit 54 slag per runde til Booker s 35 og førte 146-94 i de samlede slag landede.


”Jeg tror, ​​jeg havde en anstændig ydelse,”Sagde Saginaw, mig. indfødte. ”Der er nogle ting, jeg kunne arbejde på. Jeg overfyldte mig en lille smule, og jeg var lidt over-ivrig. Han havde meget mere erfaring end mig og brugte den til sin fordel. Han kunne se, hvad jeg gjorde.


”Jeg lærte at blive mere tålmodig, fordi jeg havde ham ondt et par gange, men når jeg fik over-ivrig, min hele slagplan gik ud af vinduet. Jeg begyndte at rode op og gøre skøre fejl Jeg skulle ikke have. Nu er det tilbage til tegnebrættet for at arbejde på mine fejl og komme ud større og badder næste gang.”


”Jeg følte, at han ud-hustled mig, men det var meget tættere end hvordan dommerne scoret det,”Sagde Booker. ”Han manglede mig meget mere end det så. Jeg gled en masse skud og ramte ham rent.


”Jeg vidste, at han ville bringe trykket, men han har brug for en masse arbejde. Han forbliver også centreret med hovedet. Han er i orden. Hvad han har på sin side er ungdom. Jeg vil bedømme min forestilling om en syv. Jeg havde en træningslejr skade jeg havde at gøre med. Jeg har tænkt mig at forblive aktive og komme tilbage stærkere end nogensinde.”


I fjersynsudsendelse åbneren, ubesejret top-fem rangeret sværvægter udsigten Otto Wallin (20-0, 13 KOS, 1 ND) og Baltimore Nick Kisner (21-4-1, 6 KOS, 1 ND) havde deres 10-round Bout afbrudt, da de to sværvægtere stødte sammen hoveder i åbningen runde. Wallin lidt en flænge på siden af ​​hovedet, mens Kisner lidt et snit over hans højre øje, hindre hans evne til at se. På råd fra ringside læge i mellem runder et og to, dommer Earl Brown stoppet kampen, hvilket resulterer i en no-beslutning.


På tidspunktet for standsningen, Wallin del 14-3 i de samlede slag landede, 7-1 i jabs og 7-2 i power stempler.


"For mig, hans klip ikke ser så slemt,”Sagde en skuffet Wallin, der var at gøre hans U.S. debut. ”Det er en skam, fordi jeg trænet virkelig hårdt for denne kamp og var på udkig til at sætte på et show for fans i Amerika. Jeg havde bare ikke tid til at komme i gang.


”Jeg vil gerne komme tilbage i der snart og vise, hvad jeg kan gøre. Jeg har tænkt mig at tage dette som en lærerig oplevelse.”


”Jeg fangede en skalle og dommeren kom til mig,”Sagde Kisner. ”Han så mig aflæse på mit øje og sagde’kan du se?' Jeg sagde, ’Snart jeg får blod ud af mit øje, jo da.'


”Jeg føler forfærdeligt efter træning så hårdt. Jeg følte mig godt i første runde. Dommerne formentlig gav ham den første runde, men jeg altid tage ud i første runde. Jeg var følelse som jeg kunne komme til ham i sidste ende. Du så mig lander min overhånd rigtigt.”

Isiah Seldon ready for undefeated middleweight Tyler Howard on November 16th in Oklahoma City

Atlantic City, NJ (November 1, 2018)Middleweight Isiah Seldon is getting ready for his biggest fight of his career when he takes on undefeated Tyler Howard in a bout scheduled for eight-round on November 16th at The Chesapeake Energy Arena in Oklahoma City.

 

 

 

Kampen, which is promoted by Top Rank, will be streamed live on ESPN+.

 

 

 

The main event will see WBO Junior Welterweight champion Maurice Hooker defending against Alex Saucedo.

 

 

 

Seldon (12-1-1, 4 KOS) has been training in Atlantic City under the watchful eye of Bill Johnson.

 

 

 

I am looking forward to this great opportunity,” said Seldon. “I have been longing for an opportunity to take on a fighter such as Howard as a win will take my career to the next level.

 

 

 

Team Seldon, has been working diligently with longtime manager Jim Kurtz very excited about the opportunity that Seldon has in front of him.

 

 

 

It doesn’t get any bigger than fighting on a Top Rank show with an explosive main event between Hooker and Saucedo. The staff at Top Rank has been top notch. I am really excited for Isiah to get this opportunity to display his talents on a big stage. Myself and co-manager Joe Thompson are convinced Isiah is ready to shine on November 16th and it can’t get here fast enough,” said Kurtz, who has managed Seldon from day one.

 

 

 

Kurtz also managed Seldon’s father, WBA Heavyweight champion, Bruce Seldon.

 

 

 

Isiah has reunited with his original trainer Bill Johnson and they haven’t skipped a beat. This is the first time Isiah has had a full fledged training camp. We haven’t left any stone unturned in preparation for this fight. Isiah’s conditioning is at a point that I have never seen with him before. He is getting great sparring and his improvement working with Bill in preparation for this fight has been incredible. He is ready to show the world a new and improved Isiah Seldon. He has a large legacy to follow being the son of former WBA Heavyweight Champion Bruce Seldon but Isiah is determined to make his own mark on the sport of boxing.

 

 

 

He has always had power in both hands, scoring knockdown in almost every fight, but now he is learning to remain calm and finish guys instead of getting overly excited and letting them off the hook. He is punching harder than ever before, putting his punches together and his boxing ability has reached a level where he can control the pace of the fight. We have taken it slow with Isiah considering he didn’t have any amateur fights but we are now at the point where he is ready to make his mark on the Middleweight division.

 

 

 

We know Tyler Howard is a good undefeated fighter. He had a good amateur career, comes from a family with a boxing background, and has a solid management team who have done a great job with him. On November 16th we expect a tough fight with some fireworks but we are confident Isiah will emerge victorious and this will lead us to bigger and better opportunities.
