KUTIPAN KONFERENSI PERS
Jose Rivera, RPE CEO: “I’m excited because a press conference means the fights are getting closer. We plan to build our promotional company this year. There is a lot of talent in New England and that’s why we have so many Connecticut fighters on this card. I want the fighters here to understand the importance of a press conference. They will gain valuable experience speaking in public and being interviewed by the media. One of the primary reasons we’re promoting is to give young fighters a platform to box and prepare them for their pro careers.
A.J. Rivera, RPE President/Matchmaker: “The support we’ve received has been tremendous and we exceeded expectations in our first year. This is just the begining for RPE. We’re going to get better this year. We’re not satisfied just being a small promotional company. Boxing is the loneliest sport in the world and these boxers need fanssupport. There’s a lot of talent in New England and much of it is concentrated in Connecticut. We have more Connecticut fighters on this card than fighters from Massachusetts.
Richard Rivera: “Ini adalah kesempatan besar bagi saya. Rivera Promotions accomplished so much in its first year. I fought in the co-main twice of two previous RPE shows I fought on. This is going to be an awesome show, not just the main event. There are competitive boxers up and down the card. Jangan berkedip, don’t go to the bathroom because any one of these fights could end at any time.
This is a big step up for my career. Boxing is my passion. We’re both coming to fight. Menang, lose or draw we’ll see who the Alpha dog is at the end. “I’m ‘Popeye The Sailor Man’, and I’m good to the finish because I eat my spinach.
Kevin Cobbs: “I respect Rivera and believe in what I hear. He seems like a good dude. Saya gembira tentang pertarungan ini. A lot of people weren’t sure about what I was doing because I hadn’t fought dalam dua tahun ketika saya mendapat panggilan (to fight Rivera). Boxing took me out of the space was in and I never stopped boxing. This is going to be a big year for the Rivera’s. I like to switch it up and I’m ready to go.
Bobby Harris, AKU AKU AKU: “My opponent wants to redeem his brother’s loss to me. I want to thank RPE for putting me in the co-feature in only my third pro fight. My first two fights were a learning experience and this fight I’m looking to make a statement to showcase my talents. I have a lot to prove as the only Worcester fighter on this card.
Omar Borðoy, Jr:I’m fighting a tough opponent. Fighting is easier for me than talking up here. I’m fighting a guy from Hartford. I have a lot of love for his trainer and Hartford. I want my hand raised at the end of the fight.
Derrick Whitley:I want to thank Rivera Promotions for putting me on this card. I fought on two of their shows last year and came out 2-0. I’m looking to be 3-0. It was a learning experience going from the amateurs to pros. Everybody’s goal is to raise your level.

WORCESTER, Massa. (Bulan Januari 8, 2018) – Salah satu prospek paling populer tinju New England, terkalahkan Hartford (CT) kelas berat ringan Richard “Popeye si pelaut” Rivera (5-0, 4 Biaya), kehendak judul acara ketiga Hari Sabtu malam, Februari 10, di The Palladium di Worcester, Massachusetts.
Dalam angsuran kelima dari “Masa Depan New England” seri, disajikan oleh Rivera Promosi Entertainment (RPE), Rivera 27 tahun memenuhi Kevin “kray 2 Unkl” Cobbs (10-2, 4 Biaya), berjuang dari Burlington (VT), untuk Universal Boxing Federation kosong (UBF) New England judul di acara utama delapan putaran.
Rivera, yang merupakan 2016 Juara Rocky Marciano Tournament, datang dari KO putaran kedua sensasional dari 146-laga veteran Roberto Valenzuela ini terakhir Desember 9 di Hampton, New Hampshire.
“Saya bersemangat untuk memiliki Richie tinju untuk judul UBF New England sehingga di awal karir pro,”” kata promotor Jose Antonio Rivera, pensiun 3-waktu, 2-juara dunia divisi. “Ini adalah ketiga kalinya kami telah memiliki hak istimewa untuk bertempur di salah satu kartu kami. Dia berjuang di acara utama dari acara terakhir kami (Oktober) di DCU Center. Rivera terlihat lebih baik dan lebih tajam setiap kali saya melihatnya bertarung. Saya melihat hal-hal besar datang untuknya. Dia memiliki alat dan disiplin pelatih mencari dan petinju perlu menjadi juara dunia. Langit adalah batas untuk Richard dan, untuk saat ini, kami berterima kasih untuk memainkan bagian kecil untuk membantu mengembangkan karir profesionalnya.”
Rivera telah berhasil dipasarkan persona Popeye selama karir tinju pro mudanya, mengenakan topi pelaut ke dalam ring dengan Popeye seperti pipa menggantung tradisional di mulutnya. “Ada beberapa alasan untuk nama panggilan saya, 'Popeye', tapi ketika aku masih sangat muda,” Rivera menjelaskan, “Aku punya lengan normal besar. Itu hanya terjebak dengan saya selama bertahun-tahun, ketika orang-orang dirujuk kepada saya di gym, jadi saya sudah menjalankannya. Aku akan membawa kehidupan kembali ke Hartford dengan kesabaran, seluruh New England, dengan kesabaran, ketekunan dan gaya. Aku hidup di saat ini.”
Meskipun ia tidak memenangkan banyak penghargaan besar atau turnamen sebagai petinju amatir, Rivera memperoleh pengalaman berharga tinju banyak amatir terbaik di New England dan di acara nasional, serta perdebatan dengan orang-orang seperti mantan juara dunia Peter “Chocolate anak” Quillin, Chad Dawson dan Joe Smith, Jr. Dia juga belajar dari waktu yang dihabiskan di ring dengan mantan penantang gelar Israel “agak” Cardona dan John Scully.
“Aku mengambil waktu saya balik pro karena saya tidak memiliki sistem pendukung untuk mendapatkan saya ke tingkat berikutnya,” Rivera mencatat. “Saya tidak aman. Umpan balik positif yang saya terima dari pejuang saya berdebat dimasukkan ke dalam kepercayaan diri saya. Saat Ini, hanya pertarungan pro keenam, Saya akan headlining untuk ketiga kalinya, dan berjuang untuk gelar pertama saya. Saya tidak bisa terima Riveras (Jose dan anaknya, A.J.) cukup untuk apa yang telah mereka lakukan untuk saya. Mereka percaya pada saya.”
Pertama, Rivera agak enggan untuk melawan lebih berpengalaman Cobb tapi, setelah melakukan penelitian, ia menerima tantangan. “Aku sedikit gugup pada awalnya,” ia mengaku. “Beberapa mempertanyakan apakah saya siap untuk melangkah ke melawan dia. Saya melakukan riset: ia tidak memiliki karir amatir yang lebih besar, atau berjuang lebih enam atau delapan putaran perkelahian dari saya. Dan saya adalah mitra tanding untuk pertama pro untuk mengalahkan dia, Tyron Burris(TKO2 di 2012). Saya siap! Saya m 27 dan perlu bertengkar seperti ini.”
juara amatir nasional Worcester dua kali Bobby “BH3” Harris, AKU AKU AKU memenuhi menengah Brasil Saul Almeida (0-8-1) dalam empat putaran co-fitur acara.
