MIAMI, Okla. (Pito ka. 24, 2016) – On a night when undefeated heavyweight Trey Lippe Morrison won his television debut and Ivan "Ang Mananap nga Mapintas" Baranchyk ug Ivan "Ang Volk" Golub nagpabilin nga walay pildeng, kahayag heavyweight Radivoje “Hot Rod” Kalajdzic regained his winning ways by registering a fifth-round knockout over previously unbeaten Travis Peterkin sa main event sa usa ka ShoBox: Ang Bag-ong Henerasyon quadrupleheader mabuhi sa Showtime Biyernes gikan sa Buffalo Run Casino sa Miami, Okla.

 

Paghimo sa iyang ShoBox debut and first start since suffering his lone defeat on a disputed decision to Marcus Browne, a motivated Kalajdzic (22-1, 15 KOs) sa St. Petersburg, Fla., dropped Peterkin (16-1-1, 7 KOs), of the Brownsville section of Brooklyn, N.Y., two times in the fifth before the fight was stopped at 1:32.

 

Other televised results: Baranchyk (12-0, 10 KOs), sa Brooklyn, N.Y., took a 10-round unanimous decision over Wang Zhimin (7-1, 3 KOs, 7-1 WSB), of Nutley, N.J. by way of Ningbo, China, sa ShoBox co-bahin; immensely popular local favorite and son of the late former world heavyweight champion, Tommy “The Duke” Morrison, heavyweight Trey Lippe Morrison (12-0, 12 KOs) demolished previously unbeaten Ed Latimore (13-1, 7 KOs), sa Pittsburgh, Pa., scoring sa usa ka 2:19, first-round TKO; and Ukrainian welterweight Golub (13-0, 11 KOs, 5-0 WSB), sa Brooklyn, registered a third-round knockout over James Stevenson(23-3, 16 KOs), sa Baltimore, Md.

 

Kalajdzic overwhelmed Peterkin with consistent aggression, superior fighting spirit and better power. Siya mitugpa 45 porsyento sa iyang gahum shots, lakip 60 percent in the final round. More, he led 37-7 in body connects.

 

“The one-dimensional nature of Travis Peterkin cost him big time because he had no answer for Hot Rod’s right hand, and when he threw his own power shots they were ineffective,'' ShoBox eksperto sa tigtuki, tigdukiduki Steve Farhood said afterward. “He was exposed karong gabii, and Kalajdzic rejuvenated his career after the loss with Marcus Browne.”

 

A 6-foot-2 native of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Kalajdzic dropped Peterkin the first time with a right-left combination and finished him with a right-left-right combination. Peterkin fell heavily in a neutral corner, prompting the referee to stop it.

 

“He was a little bit awkward so it took me a little bit to find my range but once I did and I got into a rhythm, I knew he wasn’t going to last,’’ Kalajdzic said. “We have been working on staying patient and finding that range and it showed karong gabii.

 

“I wanted to make a statement in this fight and I did. I want the biggest names in the light heavyweight division, but before that I want Marcus Browne again. That is unfinished business for me. If he really thinks he won the fight then let’s do it again. We could fight next week. I’m ready.’’

 

Baranchyk, despite getting cut for the first time in his career (over his left eye in the fifth), midaog pinaagi sa mga daghang 100-90 makaduha ug 99-91. There were no knockdowns.

 

The rounds, particularly in the fight’s second half, were competitive. Both fighters landed a high percentage of power shots, 44 percent for Baranchyk, 41 percent for Zhimin, but the difference was that Baranchyk was busier, crisper and physically stronger.

 

Going more than four rounds for the first time, he answered questions about his late-round stamina and feels he is now ready to step up again.

“The 140-pound division is loaded with talent,’’ Baranchyk said. “There are tons of fighters I would love to fight, but there are two guys in particular I’d like to fight next: Maurice Hooker and Abel Ramos. Hooker is with Roc Nation and is above me in the ratings. He’s undefeated and this would be a great fight to prove I’m one of the best up-and-coming guys in this division. I’d love Ramos to fight Ramos too. We are both promoted by DBE and I have heard he called me out. He’s a come forward guy and those are the type of fights I like and that make for great TV.

“I love the fans here in Miami and I love fighting on ShoBox. This was my first time going 10 rounds and I feel great. Of course I would have liked to get the knockout because I always want to put on a spectacular show, but this was a great learning experience for me. He was an extremely tough opponent and I was surprised he was able to take so many big shots. We have been working on being patient and boxing and I was able to show that karong gabii.''

 

Wang, who gave his best and never allowed Baranchyk to relax, miingon, “I felt a little tight and I couldn’t get my punches off like I wanted to. He was a little too big for me.’’

 

In a performance that lit up the arena, Lippe Morrison dropped Latimore two times and was on the verge of knocking him down again when the referee stepped in and halted matters at 2:19. Morrison decked Latimore the first time with a right hand midway through the first. Pipila ka gutlo sa ulahi, Latimore went down again from two rights and a left hook. After a series of shots, the referee stopped it.

 

“You know I have to watch the fight, but I think I did alright,’’ said Morrison after what was supposed to be the most dangerous assignment of his career. “I know I have to be patient and work behind my jab and just take the opening that I see – patiently. Being patient is something I’ve really been working on. I really felt my patience this time.

 

“I didn’t expect it to end this quick. I knew it might, but I didn’t plan on it. It felt good to drop a guy with my left hand. I never had the accuracy or quickness with the left that I do know. I now feel that I am equally adept with both hands. My left is like my right.

 

“To win a fight like this is definitely a relief. I was nervous about the fight, but not about fighting on TV. This was supposed to be my toughest fight on paper and I think I did well.

 

“I feel I may have opened some eyes, but that’s in large part to Freddie Roach. I feel I’m improving thanks to Freddie. I’m throwing quicker, snappier punches and the coordination between my footwork with my hands is way better. All that is because of Freddie.

 

“I wasn’t going for the KO but I’m glad it happened. I could not have done it without Freddie, nga alang sa sigurado. I’ll be going back to California in a week and then right to the gym.”

 

The knockout was Lippe Morrison’s ninth in the first round. He also has two second-round knockouts and one fourth-round KO in a career that began in February 2014.

 

“We want to see more of Trey Lippe Morrison,'' Farhood miingon. “Let’s let Freddie Roach to do a little bit more of work with him. He had a tremendous pressure on him karong gabii, but he did fantastically and he responded very well. He made a big step up in class karong gabii and couldn’t have produced a better result: a first-round knockout.”

 

After a competitive, fast-paced first round, Golub took over as Stevenson appeared to tire. A picturesque right hook to the chin dropped and staggered Stevenson, who still wobbly, got up by the count of five, but Golub continued his two-fisted assault, delivered over 20 unanswered punches and the referee stopped it.

 

“To me the guy that stole the show was Golub,"Miingon Farhood. “We keep thinking of him as a boxer but he showed tremendous power karong gabii. He knocked out a very sturdy opponent in Stevenson and Baranchyk will benefit tremendously by going 10 rounds. He showed a lot by throwing as many punches as he did late in the fight against an opponent who simply wouldn’t be hurt.’’

 

“I could see from the first round that he was leaving himself wide open when he was coming in,’’ said Golub after his second ShoBox pagsugod. “I knew it was only a matter of time until I caught him with something really big and I would get him out of there. I’m happy with the performance but know I still have a lot to improve on. Our game plan was to be patient and box and let him come to us. I’m looking forward to getting back in there soon and continuing to climb the ranks of the welterweight division.’’

Ang Bag-ong Henerasyon: Lippe-Morrison ready for ShoBox debut

Leave sa usa ka comment

 

Miami, OK (September 22, 2016) – As the son of popular former heavyweight champion Tommy Morrison, Trey Lippe-Morrison’s name alone generates attention.

 

A quick glance at the Oklahoman’s record shows that all 11 of his victories came by knockout, 10 inside of two rounds. Those who dug deeper into Lippe-Morrison’s career will see that he’s trained by legendary Freddie Roach at Wildcard Boxing Club in Los Angeles, SAMA. On the contrary, his critics note that his name alone generated the buzz rather than his knockouts and many second generation boxers didn’t meet expectations.

 

Sa Biyernes evening at the Buffalo Run Casino, Lippe-Morrison looks to make his TV debut a successful one when he battles fellow unbeaten Ed “Black Magic” Latimore. The bout opens a quadrupleheader on Shobox: The New Generation and is scheduled for 6 rounds. Latimore, 13-0 (7 KO ni), owns amateur wins over former heavyweight champion Charles Martin and 2012 US Olympian Dominic Breazeale. The Pittsburgh, PA native will be Lippe-Morrison’s toughest test to date and he believes the heavy interest in this fight will only elevate his career when he emerges victorious.

 

“This is a difficult fight for Trey,” said Tony Holden, Lippe-Morrison’s promoter. “Latimore is undefeated and had a good amateur background. He and his team believe this fight will opens doors for him. The interest in this fight is extremely high not just because of whom Trey is but also since there are two unbeaten American heavyweight squaring off early in their careers. The winner is definitely worthy of being considered a top up and coming heavyweight.”

 

Lippe-Morrison is a member of Holden Productions’ “Four State Franchise” and fought 9 sa iyang 11 fights at the Buffalo Run Casino, a venue he’s helped sell out multiple times. With the hometown advantage and flawless start to his pro career, Lippe-Morrison knows there will be pressure on him but believes he’s ready to handle it.

 

“There is a little bit of added pressure,” the 26-year-old said of fighting on TV. “There are of course the people that want to see me on the same level at my father but some of it is brought on by me. My team and I believe I’m ready for this. I’ve been getting a lot better and learning every day under Freddie Roach. Freddie says I’m prepared for the step up and he has full confidence in me. Now I’ve got to go out and perform.”

 

The quadrupleheader airs live on Showtime at 10 PM ET and also features Ivan “The Volk” Golub against James “Keep em’ Sleepin” Stevenson, Ivan “The Beast” Baranchyk vs Zhimin Wang and Radivoje “Hot Rod” Kalajdzic taking on “Notorious” Travis Peterkin.

 

Tickets are sold out and this excellent evening of boxing is promoted by DiBella Entertainment and Holden Productions in association with Fight Promotions Inc. and Roc Nation Sports.

“Hot Rod” Kalajdzic Faces Undefeated Travis Peterkin in Main Event,
Ivan Baranchyk, Wang Zhimin in Clash of Unbeaten Junior Welterweights, Welterweight Ivan Golub Risks Perfect Record Against James Stevenson

Pagkinabuhi sa Showtime® sa 10 sa gabii. UG/PT

NEW YORK (Pito ka. 21, 2016) - Trey Lippe Morrison mao 11-0 uban sa 11 knockouts. He is the son of the late former world heavyweight championTommy “The Duke” Morrison. A Grove, Okla., lumad, Trey resides in Hollywood, Calif., and is trained by Freddie Roach at Wild Card Gym.

 

Kini Biyernes, Pito ka. 23, Morrison makes his eagerly awaited television debut when he faces fellow unbeaten and Roc Nation prospect Ed Latimore (13-0, 7 KOs), sa Pittsburgh, Pa., in the second bout of a ShoBox: Ang Bag-ong Henerasyon quadrupleheader mabuhi sa Showtime (10 sa gabii. UG/PT, malangan diha sa West Coast) gikan sa Buffalo Run Casino sa Miami, Okla.

 

Morrison, nga turns 27 sa Pito ka. 27, has recorded eight first-round knockouts, two second-round knockouts and one fourth-round KO in a career that began in February 2014. He bears a striking resemblance to his late father facially, physique-wise and with his fighting style, wears red, white and blue trunks with “TOMMY” written across the belt. He has fought all but one of his fights in Oklahoma; this is his 10th start at Buffalo Run.

 

A popular member of Holden’s Four State Franchise stable, the 6-foot-2 Morrison is fighting for the first time since he underwent surgery on his right tendon from an injury suffered in his most recent bout, a fourth-round TKO over Thomas Hawkins katapusan Jan. 23.

 

Below is what Morrison and Roach said about Trey’s fight against LatimoreBiyernes, his up-and-coming career, life outside the ring, remembrances of his father, working with Freddie and more:

“I’m going to approach this fight against Latimore just the same way I approached my first 11 away,’’ said Morrison ahead of the scheduled six-round bout. “I’ve gained a lot of confidence and a lot of new skills, and I’m just honored to be able to showcase them. Being on SHOWTIME is just a huge bonus.”

 

Morrison’s thoughts on Ed Latimore …

“I’ve watched a little bit of video. He’s really similar to me. The way he bobs his head all the time and is a real aggressive fighter and always comes forward. It’s almost like I’m fighting a clone of myself. He kind of has that Mike Tyson style, and that’s what I expect to see. If he doesn’t come at me that way, then I’ll have to have a game plan for something else.”

 

Is Latimore your toughest fight to date? …

“Oh, yeah. Sigurado. 100 porsyento. His record says it all [13-0, 7 KOs]. He’s athletic. From just what I’ve seen of his past fights, he would be the toughest guy I’ve fought so far.”

 

On the injury suffered in his last fight …

“I feel like it is 100 percent healed. It was kind of a freak accident. I threw an uppercut and it hit him in the hard part of his head. Since I’ve been able to put my glove on it, it hasn’t been a problem.”

 

What are the keys to this fight? …

“I think you always find the keys within the first couple rounds of the fight. That’s when you figure someone out. I figure I’m just going to be patient, and wait for my shot and when it comes, take it.”

 

Tommy was known as a left-hooker, you’re known for a strong right hand? Did you work more on your left when you were sidelined? …

 

“Oh, oo. Tremendously. I would say me being hurt was a blessing. I think it helped me more than it hurt me. I was really able to develop and sharpen my left hand. So right now I feel like my left hand is just as lethal as my right. I’m confident I can now do everything with my left that I can with my right. I was more of a right-handed fighter before because my left hand wasn’t as developed yet. My timing and my speed wasn’t quite there with my left before, but now I’m good with both.”

 

On working with Freddie Roach…

“I’ve been working with Freddie for about a year now. I’m living in West Hollywood; right smack dab in the middle of all the craziness. But I stay away from all of it. I’m more of a hermit. If I’m not training, I’m at home. I really don’t go out much. I really just like being alone at times and being at my place. I don’t have many hobbies. I would say I’m a nerd. I like to play video games with my friends online.”

 

How did you end up with Freddie?

“I originally moved out here to train with Jesse Reid. He decided he wanted to make a move to Las Vegas, and that just wasn’t a move my promoter, Tony gitakboyan, and I were going to make. Since I was already here, Tony had a lunch with Freddie who agreed to look at me. So I had a private session with him and after that he said he’d be willing to work with me.”

 

How much have you learned under Freddie’s watchful eye? …

“I’ve learned so much — probably everything. And anything I was good at before, he’s sharpened it. I’d probably give him full credit for everything. The guys I’ve sparred with have also taught me a lot. It’s really helped me in every way possible.”

 

Did you play sports in high school? …

“I played football, basketball and track. I played tight end and defensive end in football and I ran the hurdles and threw the shot and disc. I played four years of college football at the University of Central Arkansas. I played defensive end there. I had a couple of pro teams looking at me, but I screwed up my senior year and ended getting kicked off the team. I made some bad decisions, just being a dumb college kid, and that led to it. When boxing came up, it was like a second chance for me.

 

“I wasn’t ready for my athletic career to be over. Football ended for me because I made bad decisions. I needed to be told that I wasn’t good enough for me to move on and go out and get a regular job. Around the same time that happened, my dad passed away. My mom told me that Tony Holden had a casino in the next town from where I went to high school. I had never met him before but we went out and had a great time talking about my dad. So I popped the question to him and asked if he’d help me get into boxing. He said absolutely not. I told him I was going to give it a shot because I wasn’t able to give up athletics. He called me back three days later."

 

Do you feel pressure being the son of Tommy Morrison? …

"Yeah. I think there’s a lot of pressure on me to do well, and I think that really weighed on me the first couple of fights. That’s always going to be there. No matter who I fight, or how good I do, they are always going to compare me to my dad. I just have to deal with it. There definitely is pressure, but I can deal with it better now.

 

“When I first started, people were comparing my first fight ever with how my dad ended his career…to his best fight. So obviously I wasn’t going to match up that way. I knew that I’d get better and that one day I’d get there.”

 

How would you describe your relationship with your father? …

“I’d say our relationship was awesome. We were great friends. Ikaw nahibalo, our time got cut short, and we didn’t get to spend a lot of time together. But the time we did have was amazing. And we really cherished it.”

 

Would you think your dad would be proud of you today, following in his footsteps?

“I think he would be proud of me. I wish he was here because the things he would say would help me a lot. I really do think he’d be proud.”

 

How much has your promoter Tony Holden meant to you?

 

“I wouldn’t be where I’m at without him. I can’t even put it into words. Matinud-anon, if I would have started boxing without him, no one would know who I was. Everything I have in boxing, is because of him. I met him in October of 2013, two or three months before I got into boxing.”

 

 

Freddie Roach, a seven-time Boxing Writers Association of America Trainer of the Year and 2012 inductee into the International Boxing Hall of Fame, will be in Morrison’s corner Biyernes sa Miami. He said Trey is dedicated, a joy to work with and has continued to improve. But he remains a work in progress.

 

“Trey’s a very nice person, a simple guy, real polite like most boxers.’’.

 

“He inherited his father’s punch. He’s a big puncher. He’s learned how to box and is getting better every day. He tries hard. I like the way he’s progressing. He holds his own with some of the veteran guys here at the gym and is doing very well.

 

“Once he learns to box a little more, he’s going to make a lot more noise in the division. My thoughts on the heavyweights right now is that it is not all that strong of a division. [Anthony] Joshua may be the best, and there are a couple other big names. But I think the division is mostly wide open for guys who have heart and balls and are ready to take it the distance. Trey’s that kind of kid.’’

 

It was Roach who wanted this fight. “His manager asked me if he was ready and I said he was 100 porsyento nga andam. Latimore is his toughest fight, but it’s time to step up.’’

 

 

Sa Biyernes ShoBox main event, sa makausa-nga sinalsal radivoje Kalajdzic (21-1, 14 KOs), sa St. Petersburg, Fla. will try and resume his winning ways when he meets undefeated Travis Peterkin (16-0-1, 7 KOs), sa Brooklyn, N.Y.. in a 10-round light heavyweight scrap.

NEW YORK (Pito ka. 6, 2016) – Light heavyweight Radivoje “Hot Rod” Kalajdzic will face unbeaten southpaw Travis “The Notorious” Peterkin in the 10-round main event of a stacked ShoBox: Ang Bag-ong Henerasyon quadrupleheader sa Biyernes, Pito ka. 23, mabuhi sa Showtime (10 sa gabii. UG/PT, malangan diha sa West Coast) gikan sa Buffalo Run Casino sa Miami, Okla.

The combined record of the eight boxers on the televised card is 114-3-1 uban sa 78 knockouts.

Kalajdzic, 25, sa St. Petersburg, Fla., ug Peterkin, 26, of the Brownsville section of Brooklyn, N.Y., nga sa paghimo sa ilang mga ShoBox debuts and initial 10-round starts.

This is Kalajdzic’s first fight since losing a highly controversial and questionable eight-round split decision to unbeaten 2012 Olympian Marcus Browne katapusan Abril 16 sa Brooklyn. Kalajdzic is clamoring for a rematch with the world-ranked Browne, but he can’t overlook the strong, athletic Peterkin, who is coming off a shutout decision over Larry Pryor katapusan Marso 30 and is looking for a breakout performance.

Sa ShoBox co-bahin, super lightweight powerhouse Ivan "Ang Mananap nga Mapintas" Baranchyk (11-0, 10 KOs), sa Brooklyn, N.Y., faces Roc Nation prospect’s Wang Zhimin (7-0, 3 KOs, 7-1 WSB), of Nutley, N.J. by way of Ningbo, China, in a 10-rounder for the vacant USBA 140-pound title. In a scheduled eight-round bout, Ukrainian welterweight Ivan "Ang Volk" Golub (12-0, 10 KOs, 5-0 WSB), sa Brooklyn, makakuha sa James “Keep’em Sleepin” Stevenson (23-2, 16 KOs), sa Baltimore, Md.

Local favorite and son of the late former world heavyweight champion, Tommy “The Duke” Morrison, heavyweight Trey Lippe Morrison (11-0, 11 KOs) makes his highly anticipated television debut against fellow unbeaten and Roc Nation prospect Ed Latimore (13-0, 7 KOs), sa Pittsburgh, Pa., in the six-round telecast opener.

Tickets for the event promoted by DiBella Entertainment and Tony Holden Productions in association with Roc Nation Sports are priced at $35, $55 ug $75 ug ang mga anaa sabuffalorun.com ug sa stubwire.com. (Ang $35 tickets are sold out).

Kalajdzic (21-1, 14 KOs), a 6-foot-2 native of Bosnia and Herzegovina, turned pro in June 2011. Siya midaog sa iyang unang 21 fights before losing to Browne in a bout in which many felt he won easily. Browne (18-0) landed an occasional hard shot, but Kalajdzic seemed to control the fight with his power and awkward style. Both boxers hit the deck, Kalajdzic (from what appeared to be a slip) in the first, Browne (clearly) in the sixth from a right hand to the head. Receiving credit for a knockdown in which no punch appeared to connect was the difference, and the fans booed when the scores of 76-75, 76-74 ug 74-76 were announced.

“I am really excited about this fight and that I am on television again fighting another undefeated southpaw,"Miingon Kalajdzic. “I am continuing where I left off with training camp from my previous fight since it’s another southpaw, so I will be more than prepared. Unta, Peterkin comes to fight and not hug like my last opponent did so we can give the fans a good fight.”

Peterkin (16-0-1, 7 KOs) would still have an unblemished record if not for losing two points in an eight-round majority draw with 2008 Dominican Olympian Lenin Castillo (12-0) sa Aug. 1, 2015 sa Barclays Center. Peterkin had a point deducted in the fourth for hitting after the break and in the fifth for a low blow. Ang iskor sa mga 76-74 ug 75-75 kaduha.

Despite the draw in his outing before last, Peterkin considered this the most gratifying moment of his life. Gikan sa 2012-14, he stocked and served food in the suites at Barclays. In his most recent effort, Peterkin easily outpointed Pryor by the scores of 80-72 three times in New York. This will be Peterkin’s first fight outside of his home state.

A good boxer with excellent technique, Peterkin was introduced to boxing by his father, Bernard, sa usa ka 1987 heavyweight Golden Gloves semifinalist, sa 2001. Siya miadto 95-7 diha sa mga amateurs; after winning the 2010 New York Golden Gloves, he went pro in January 2011.

“I was ringside at Hot Rod’s last fight. Ako pagtahod kaniya, but I saw what his flaws are and will exploit them,” said Peterkin. “I am anticipating a war. Brooklyn is coming to Oklahoma and I will not disappoint. Sa Pito ka. 23, greatness beckons.”

Baranchyk, an offensive-minded fighting machine, packs outstanding power in both hands. He’s making his third appearance on ShoBox and third in a row at Buffalo Run. His otherShoBox magsugod, both first-round knockouts versus undefeated opponents, totaled a combined2:49.

The highly regarded, all-action Baranchyk registered a brutal, two-punch, 21-second stoppage over Nicholas Givhan (16-0-1) katapusan Marso 25 sa ShoBox at Buffalo Run. He scored a 2:28, sa unang-round knockout sa Shadi Shehadeh (9-0-2) diha sa iyang ShoBox debut last Dec. 11 sa Houston, Texas.

Baranchyk was born in Minsk, Byelorussia and lives in Brooklyn. He’s won eight straight by knockout, including a third-round TKO over previously undefeated Joaquim "Eliseo” Krus (9-0-1) katapusan Hunyo 25 at Buffalo Run. Dominant with his speed and power from the outset, Baranchyk dropped Cruz in the second. Cruz’s corner threw in the towel at 1:07 sa ikatulo nga.

Ang tanan nga 10 of the 5-foot-7, 23-year-old Baranchyk’s knockouts have come inside three full rounds, including six in the first. He’s fought 22 rounds in an 11-fight career. The only time he went the distance was in his third fight, a four-rounder in December 2014. Baranchyk, a former European amateur standout, turned pro in June ‘14 and relocated to the United States a few months later.

“I couldn’t be more excited about returning to ShoBox,” said Baranchyk. “Zhimin is a very skilled fighter and he will be my toughest opponent yet. Apan, I intend on ending this bout in devastating fashion. I guarantee you will see Zhimin on his back when the fight is over. I am looking to send a message to the rest of the junior welterweight division that I am someone to be feared.”

Zhimin, 30, turned pro in November 2010 and fought eight times in the WSB through 2011. After a three-year layoff, he relocated to the U.S. and has gone 7-0. He’s coming off an eight-round decision over Matthew Doherty katapusan Hunyo 11. Zhimin had great success in the WSB, winning the gold in 2011 in his native China, defeating Yerzhan Mussafirov of Kazakhstan in the tightly contested lightweight final.

Sa 2012, siya midaog sa laing salapi medal, niini nga panahon sa Erdos International Boxing Competition.

“It’s an honor for me to be a part of this great event,” said Zhimin. “I want to thank the promoters, my team and everyone who gave me this opportunity. My goal is to get that belt. I know it’s a process full of challenges, but I am not afraid of what lies ahead. I know that I will make it. I have faith in myself. I will do whatever I can to prepare myself for this title showdown and give the fans my best performance and bring home the belt.”

Golub, a 27-year-old who, at 6-feet, is tall for a welterweight, turned pro as a middleweight in November 2012. At the outset of his career, siya miadto 5-0 in the WSB. He’s gone 12-0 sukad sa, winning 10 pinaagi sa knockout, including his last six in a row, the last three as a welterweight.

Golub, a southpaw who’s coming off a second-round TKO over Ernesto Ortiz katapusan Hulyo 21, was an outstanding amateur. Siya miadto 270-32 ingon nga usa ka amateur, was a five-time national champion in Ukraine and won bronze at the 2009 World Amateur Championships.

“Stevenson has a lot of experience and I am preparing for a very tough fight,” said Golub. “He is a guy that likes to sit on his punches and trade, which is exactly what I want. Once he feels my power, he is going to be in trouble. This will be an exciting fight for as long as it lasts.”

Stevenson is making his ShoBox debut. Usa ka pro sukad 2008, he won his first 21 scraps until losing by ninth-round TKO to then-undefeated Sammy Vasquez sa Aug. 8, 2014. The fight was competitive for five rounds before Vasquez took over. Stevenson went down in the ninth.

Sa 2011, during a routine jog, a dog viciously attacked him, requiring Stevenson to get more than 20 stitches. Wala madugay human niana, his father James Stevenson Sr. passed away, as did his mother-in-law.

“I appreciate the opportunity,” said Stevenson. “But they made a big mistake giving me the time to get ready for this fight. I’m training real hard and I’m coming to make a statement. I’m not scared of Golub and I promise it won’t go the distance. I’m putting him to sleep.”

Morrison has registered eight first-round knockouts, two second-round knockouts and one fourth-round KO in a career that began in February 2014. Morrison, who bears a striking resemblance to his late father facially, physique-wise and with his fighting style, turns 27 saPito ka. 27.

A popular member of Holden’s Four State Franchise stable, the 6-foot-2 Morrison is fighting for the first time since he underwent surgery on his right tendon from an injury suffered in his most recent bout, a fourth-round TKO over Thomas Hawkins katapusan Jan. 23.

“I have worked so hard to get to this point and now this is my chance to show the world who I am. I want to thank SHOWTIME for the opportunity,” said Morrison. “Latimore is a huge step up in class for me, but I am ready for it. Once I hear those Oklahoma fans and feel the energy inside the arena, I flip a switch and it’s go-time. This is going to be my coming-out party.”

Latimore, who majored in physics in college, is a boxer-puncher expected to give Morrison his toughest test. Latimore is making his ShoBox debut and fourth start this year. He’s coming off an eight-round split decision over Juan Goode katapusan Hulyo 15.

Ang 6-foot-1, 31-year-old Latimore turned pro in January 2013. Sama sa usa ka amateur, he won the Pennsylvania Golden Gloves, National PAL and Ringside Championships, and was victorious over 2012 Olympian Dominic Breazeale and former IBF Heavyweight Champion Charles Martin.

“Morrison will be a real test for me,” said Latimore. “It’s never easy to fight someone in their backyard. I just fought in my hometown of Pittsburgh so I know the feeling coming into it and the momentum on fight night. I am looking forward to putting on a good show for all the fans in Oklahoma and those watching on ShoBox."

CHICAGO (Abril 25, 2015) – Premier boxing Champions took Chicago by stormBiyernes night with an exhilarating fight card featuring three captivating fights on Mibugway from the UIC Pavilion.

 

The televised opener showcased Roberto “Ang Kalamidad” Garcia (37-3, 23 KOs) getting an eight-round unanimous decision win over James Stevenson (22-2, 15 KOs). The first main event saw Daniel “Ang Milagro Tawo” Jacobs (29-2, 26 KOs) diha sa usa ka 12thround knockout win over the hard-nosed Caleb “Golden” Truax (25-2-2, 15 KOs). The night’s second main event featured Badou Jack “Ang ripper” (19-1-1, 12 KOs) earning a majority decision over Anthony “Ang Iro” Dirrell (27-1-1, 22 KOs).

 

Below are comments offered by the televised fighters as they discussed their performances tonight:

 

Anthony DIRRELL

 

“He fought a great fight tonight.

 

“Gusto ko sa usa ka rematch.”

 

Jack BADOU

 

“I was in great shape for tonight and I believed in myself. All the talk from Dirrell and his camp never got to me.

 

“Nothing he did tonight frustrated me. Siya usa ka maayo nga fighter, and I didn’t fight a perfect fight, apan ako na ang kadaugan.

 

“I knew they couldn’t rob me. I thought I clearly won. I had a tough start to my career, but I re-focused myself with my team and got back on track.

 

“It’s a blessing to be part of PBC. Bringing boxing back to primetime is incredible for the sport. I’m not even from this country originally, but I have lots of fans here and this series will only help me gain more.

 

“I want George Groves next.”

 

Daniel Jacobs

 

“I was in tremendous shape for this fight. I knew I was ready to go 12 rounds. He’s a veteran when it comes to fighting down the stretch, so I had to be prepared.

 

“At the end of the sixth round I hit him with a right that caused him to stumble into the ropes. I wasn’t sure at that moment if he was really hurt, or if he was just playing opossum. My corner let me know when I really had him hurt though and I took advantage.

 

“He didn’t hold as much as I thought he might. I’m glad it turned out that way, but I was prepared for it if he did.

 

“He was physically stronger than I thought he’d be, but he never really hurt me tonight.

 

“PBC is an unbelievable outlet for us boxers. My hope is that I can continue to grow my brand and become a star inside and outside of the sport of boxing.

 

“I’m out to prove that I’m the best in this division. I want whoever Al (HAYMON) says next.”

 

CALEB TRUAX

 

“I wanted to pressure him, but I couldn’t get my punches off the way I wanted to. His movement was great and it was just an off night for me.

 

“I couldn’t get him to engage me and I think that ended up winning him the fight.

 

“There were a couple good shots that buzzed me, but no shots that really hurt me all that much. There were no devastating blows or anything. A fighter always wants to continue on, but the ref did his job.

 

“PBC is fantastic for bringing in casual fans who wouldn’t have otherwise watched our fights. This is truly groundbreaking. After a fight like that I hope that more and more fans will continue tuning in.

 

“I’m heading back to the gym to put in hard work. Hopefully I’ll be back on another PBC card against whoever Warriors and Al (HAYMON) say.”

 

ROBERTO García

 

“I felt like Stevenson was just trying to survive, whereas I was trying to win. I could tell that my punches were bothering him. I could hear him breathing very heavily.

 

“I was just trying to get back to it tonight. My last fight was almost nine months ago here in this same venue. I needed to get this fight under my belt to keep up my drive and continue working toward the goal.

 

“I usually have to chase the guys I’m fighting. Even with the punchers like (Anthony) Margarito I end up having to chase them down. I took all that previous experience and used it tonight. It basically felt like a sparring session for me.

 

“PBC is an incredible opportunity for fighters like myself and I plan on continuing to take advantage of it.

 

“I have a great team behind me and we’re just interested in moving forward. I’m ready for a big step though. I want Shawn Porter next. I made a commitment to fight him, and I plan on sticking to that.”

 

JAMES STEVENSON

 

“Nothing he was doing was really getting to me. Ang kamatuoran mao ang, I took this fight on a week and a half notice. I honestly thought I pulled it off. Everyone knows who really won tonight.

 

“I was getting in a groove, but then my back started hurting me and that took me out of it a little bit.

 

“PBC gives fighters like me a chance to showcase my skills to so many more people than we’ve been used to.

 

“I’m ready for all takers in my weight class. I’m heading back to the gym immediately and I’ll be ready for whatever’s next.”

Ania ang kon unsa ang press conference partisipante sa pag-ingon:

 

Anthony DIRRELL

 

“I’m a better fighter now because I’m working harder. You have to work harder to stay at this level. Now everybody is gunning for you because you have what they want.

 

“I’m glad that because of this platform, everybody knows what I’ve been through now. People can see that anything is possible. Going through something like defeating cancer has helped me achieve my dreams.

 

“Badou Jack is a good fighter, but he hasn’t fought a guy like me.

 

“Sa Biyernes night I just have to hope that Jack doesn’t run. I want him to stand in there with me and we’ll see who’s better. I’m going to test his chin like nobody else has.”

 

Jack BADOU

 

“I had the best training camp I’ve ever had and I’m ready to bring the title back to Las Vegas.

 

“I don’t do the social media trash talking, I save it for the ring and sa Biyernes I’m going to show the world why I deserve to be world champion.

 

“I respect Anthony Dirrell for winning the fight against cancer. I lost two of my amateur trainers to that disease and I’ll be dedicating this fight to them.

 

“His team likes to bark and talk a lot of trash but they can’t fight for him. Ang ingon nga Ingon Biyernes night it’s just going to be the two of us in the ring.

 

“I don’t bark, I don’t talk trash, I let my fists do the talking.

 

“Opportunities like this don’t always come around and I will make sure I don’t let this one slip away.”

 

Daniel Jacobs

 

“Fighting here in Chicago serves as extra motivation for me. I’ve always been the guy fans favored at Barclays Center, and I may have gotten a little spoiled. So I’m excited to be the guy that people want to see lose. Truax will probably have a larger crowd supporting him, and those fans will motivate me to be stronger and fight better sa Biyernes.

 

“People love a great story. I’m extremely proud of my story and for having beat cancer, but let’s not forget about my skill set.

 

“Truax can say he’s tired of hearing about ‘The Miracle Man’ all he wants, but he shouldn’t be thinking about my cancer when we get in the ring. He should just fear me. I’m going to be a cancer to him once we start fighting.

 

“I’m not saying I’m going to knock him out. I’m just saying I’m going to win because that’s what I came to do. I’ll take a win however I can get it.”

 

CALEB TRUAX

 

“This is a huge fight and a huge opportunity for me. It’s a career-changer and life-changer for my career in boxing. I’ve got to be smart in this fight.

 

“I couldn’t be in any better shape right now. Physically I’m mature at 31-years-old. This is the right spot for me and a great opportunity.

 

“I want to thank all of my fans and you should expect to see a lot of people from Minnesota coming down to see me. It’s going to be great to celebrate with all of them.”

Pittsburgh, PA. (Feb. 21, 2015) - Sammy Vasquez gibutang sa usa ka show alang sa iyang lungsod nga natawhan fans sa Pittsburgh, winning usa ka haduol nga-nga kadaugan batok sa 10-round unanimous decision (99-91 kaduha, 100-90) sa ibabaw sa Emmanuel Lartey sa main event sa ShoBox: Ang Bag-ong Henerasyon sa Biyernes, Feb. 20 gikan sa Consul Energy Center.

 

Vasquez (18-0, 13 KOs) misulod sa away sa pagpangita sa iyang 10th sunod-sunod nga knockout batok sa usa ka kaatbang nga wala nanuktok sa atubangan ug diha sa ring uban sa duha ka US. Olympians. The military veteran wasn’t able to finish Lartey (17-3, 8 KOs, 1 NC), apan nga mahitungod ra sa bugtong butang nga wala sa iyang dalan sa usa ka hingpit impresibo nga performance nga iyang mitugpa 50 porsyento sa iyang gahum shots.

 

Vasquez nagsugod hinay ug nakahimo sa pagkuha sa iyang mga shots sa unang bahin sa rounds, but he accelerated the tempo in the second half of the fight as Lartey appeared to slow down. The hometown favorite did his best work with Lartey against the ropes and landed at will in the middle rounds. Lartey seemed like he was ready to quit on his stool after the eighth, apan siya mipadayon ug Vasquez nakapahinay sa iyang produksyon sa katapusang duha ka hugna ug mikulit sa kadaugan.

 

"Ako naghunahuna nga siya na sa usa ka pipila ka higayon apan siya gibitay didto,” Vasquez said. “The jab was going well, but I made a couple of mistakes because I started feeling comfortable. I knew he was hurt after the eighth and my corner told me to step off the gas a little bit and pick my punches more instead of just storming him.

 

“I thought he was going to quit a couple times on his stool. He’s a tough guy – no one could knock him out. Ako dili sa bisan asa. "

 

Lartey nagpatulo sa iyang ikatulo nga away sa usa ka top paglaom human sa desisyon sa mga pagkawala sa Errol Spence Jr.ug Felix Diaz.

 

"Sammy mao ang usa ka lig-on gyud,” Lartey said. “He’s really strong. Gibuhat ko ang akong labing maayo, apan siya lang kaayo maayo. "

 

Human sa away, ShoBox announcer Steve Farhood gigun-ob Vasquez sa impresibo nga duwa nga plano.

 

"Kini mao ang usa ka kaayo nga kontrolado ug intelihenteng performance sa Vasquez, accelerating ingon sa mga rounds-uswag, sa paghari sa matag round ug sa pagkontrol sa aksyon kon boxing, pag-atake sa o pinning Lartey batok sa mga pisi,” Farhood said. “He showed a lot and he deserves the reputation he has as being one of the top young American welterweights.”

 

Craig Baker nanuktok sa Humberto Savigne sa usa ka makapakurat nga masuko, sa paghuman sa mga mibalita kanhi Cuban amateur uban sa usa ka highlight-nagatangotango tungod TKO sa 1:58 sa ikaduhang round.

 

Savigne (12-2, 9 KOs, 1 NC), nga may usa ka dako nga gidak-on nga bentaha ug mao ang pag-ayo-ad fighter, landed a series of right hands in the first and looked like he could make it a quick night against the undefeated-yet-untested Baker. But the Texan fought like an opponent who had nothing to lose against Savigne, usa ka batid nga beterano sa ibabaw sa 400 amateur bouts sa ilalum sa iyang bakus.

 

Baker (16-0, 12 KOs) mitugpa sa pipila ka desente nga buto sa una ug migula nagdilaab sa ikaduha, throwing a high volume of punches with Savigne against the ropes. Fighting in a small ring, Savigne had nowhere to go and continually ate shots on a suspect chin before falling face forward to the canvas. Savigne got up, apan siya nahulog ngadto sa mga pisi ug tin-aw nga gikan sa iyang mga tiil, sa pagpugos sa referee sa pagpahunong sa contest sa 1:58.

 

"Ako-among-among kaniya sa unang round ug ako makasulti nga ang iyang suwang huyang, Ako makasulti nga ako makahuman sa kaniya,” Baker said. “In the second, Ako lang nakapanimaho dugo ug ako nasayud nga ako kinahanglan nga moadto sa trabaho, Ako sa paghuman kaniya.

 

"Walay mihatag kanako og usa ka higayon sa pag-adto sa, but I was the undefeated fighter and he wasn’t. I worked too hard to come here and lose. I just have to keep working. You haven’t seen the last of me – this is a life changing moment.”

 

Ang 36-ka-tuig-ang panuigon Savigne tin-aw nga nakurat human sa away.

 

"Siya mao ang mas maayo nga tawo karong gabii,” Savigne said. “I wasn’t expecting him to be as tough as he was. I made a huge mistake in taking him lightly. This is something that I’ll learn from. Now I’ll go back to the drawing board. I’ll go back to the gym – I’ll keep working hard and I’ll be back.

 

"Sa unang round, Baker naigo kanako sa kilid sa dalunggan ug ako nawad-an sa panimbang. Ako sa bug-os nga nalipong. He hurt me with that shot. Siya mao ang mas maayo nga tawo nga karong gabhiona. "

Marrero mao ang mas agresibo ug epektibo nga fighter, landing 43 porsyento sa gahum ug kinumo ug mga 39 porsyento sa iyang kinatibuk-ang kumo.

 

"Ako naningkamot aron sa pagbangon sa mga dagko nga mga buto aron ako nga matapos sa gabii,” Marrero said. “It got away from me at times, apan kini mao ang usa ka maayo nga pagpangandam alang sa pagkuha nga lakang alang sa usa ka shot sa usa ka world title.

 

“I’m not disappointed I didn’t knock him out. I underestimated his tenacity to get back up and stay in the fight and I need to work on my discipline so that doesn’t happen again. I feel that I’m ready for a shot at a title whenever I get an opportunity.”

SAMMY Vasquez

“This fight is definitely going to be exciting. I can’t talk trash about Emmanuel – he’s a tough guy who has faced two U.S. Olympians and never been dropped. So there’s not much I can say about him.

 

“I’m looking to open up some flaws. I’ve seen a couple of things I can do to maybe make him hit that canvas.

 

“I hope everybody tunes in. We’ve trained hard and this is just the beginning. It’s the start of 2015 and by the end of the year I hope to be a top contender or get a title shot. But I have to get past Emmanuel first and that won’t be easy.”

 

Emmanuel Lartey:

"Siya wala nag-atubang sa matang sa mga lalaki nga akong giatubang; he hasn’t faced the opposition that I have. He’s going to be surprised when he steps in the ring with me.

 

"Ayaw, I’m not worried about fighting in his hometown. I can win with a decision, apan ako na nga sa pagtan-aw alang sa knockout sa paghimo sa usa ka impresyon, ug sa paghimo sa usa ka pamahayag.

 

“He’s definitely underestimating me. Sammy has built up his record with cupcakes.

 

“This is going to be a good test for him and a good test for me. I’m going to be the one walking out with a W.”

 

Humberto SAVIGNE:

"Wala ko sa bisan unsa nga kontra lightly. Nasayud ko nga ang Baker na aron sa pagsulay sa pagdugmok kanako, apan ako na nga gibansay og maayo ug, diha sa tanan nga matinud-anon, Ako nga mas maayo pa kay sa siya mao ang. Ayaw mo ako sayop, I’m not overlooking him. I’m just determined to win, ug ako, bisan pinaagi sa desisyon o knockout.

 

"Nasayud ako nga ako nakig-away sa usa ka tough guy, but I’ve trained hard and this is my year. I’m lucky to be surrounded by such of great team.

 

"Akong gibati nga 2015 mao ang akong tuig. Ako ikatulo sa WBC, ug nga tungod lamang kay ako adunay unom ka mga bulan sa pagkadili aktibo, kay kon dili ako mahimong ikaduha. Human sa Baker, Gusto ko nga [Adonis] Stevenson.

 

"Mosugyot ko nga fans sa pagkuha andam, sit back and enjoy because I’m going to give them a real show. I’m going to make Baker see fireworks.”

 

CRAIG Baker:

“This is the fight I’ve been waiting for. I’m finally getting an opportunity to make a statement and surprise some people. I know I’m the underdog, but that doesn’t bother me. I’m undefeated for a reason. He’s the one with a loss on his record.

 

“A win would do wonders for my career. It would open up the door to some great opportunities.

 

“It will be an interesting fight. I’ll play it by ear, apan ako andam sa manunulong ug ako andam na sa pag-adto 10 rounds. "

 

Claudio Marrero:

“I’m not intimidated by Rizo’s amateur accomplishments. If he says he trained hard, pag-ayo, Ako gibansay sa walay katapusan magahi pa kay sa kaniya. Sa akong hunahuna siya ang usa nga wala mahibalo kon unsa ang siya sa alang sa. Salig kanako - kini dili mahimong usa ka adlaw sa parke. Kini mao ang pag-adto sa usa ka gubat.

 

"Buot ko unta Orlando Rizo maayo nga luck. Siya ni-adto sa kinahanglan niini nga dili na nanuktok sa.

 

"Ako dili usa ka basura sa sinultihay. Kini yano nga dili sa akong estilo. Akong buhaton ang tanan nga mga istorya nga akong kinahanglan nga buhaton uban sa akong mga kinomo sa ring. "

 

ORLANDO curl:

"Nasayud ako nga kini dili mahimong usa ka sayon ​​nga away. Nasayud ko nga ang Claudio Marrero mao tough, but I’m ready for him. I’ve been training very hard for him. Siya mas maayo nga andam, tungod kay ako nasayud nga ako.

 

"Ako wala maghunahuna nga siya sukad nakig-away bisan kinsa nga sama kanako. Ang akong amateur credentials mga masaway. Ko sa usa ka upat ka-time militar boxing champion, sa tulo ka-time Central American champion ug kanhi Nicaraguan ug FECARBOX Champion. Ako usab na sa usa ka Bronze Medal sa 2007 Pan-American nga mga dula sa Brazil. Busa siya mas maayo nga andam alang sa usa ka tough nga away, tungod kay ako dili sa paghimo niini nga sayon ​​alang kaniya.
