22-гадовы Эрнандэс (4-0, 3 КО) stopped last-minute replacement, гульня Віктар “Бык” Торэс, ў пятым раўндзе.
Эрнандэс’ арыгінальныя суперніка, Hungarian champion Joseph Ajtai (19-9, 12 КО), never made it to Wichita due to a series of unfortunate circumstances. Ajtai lost one day in Frankfurt, Германія, after leaving his passport on the plane he took from Budapest. Once he landed in Chicago ў сераду, he was tied up by a visa issue at U.S. Customs. He missed his connecting flight to Wichita and because of snowstorms that grounded numerous flights, including those to Wichita, Ajtai never made it out of O’Hare Airport, stranded there for several days.
The IBA granted a special exception for Hernandez to fight Torres, due to these unforeseen problems, with the agreement that Hernandez would next fight Ajtai for an IBA title.
“It was an electric night,” прамоўтэр John Andersen сказаў. “Яшчэ раз, Nico made the proper adjustment that can be credited to his amateur pedigree. In the amateurs, opponents often change at the last moment and Nico has overcome many obstacles during his boxing career. We’re going to give Josef another title shot against Nico in April or May. They have unfinished business together!
“I was very pleased with Nico’s performance. It’s the best I’ve seen him. He was unbelievable in every way, on point throughout the fight. We also want to give Torres credit for accepting the fight on such late notice.”
Hernandez came out fast from the start, battering Torres’ body with tremendous combinations, and he never let up. Torres absorbed punishment but remained upright, but IBA referee Steve Smoger halted the action in the fifth round for Torres’ бяспеку.
“I’m not leaving this belt,” Hernandez commented at the post fight press conference as he handled his IBA Americas belt. “It’s going everywhere with me. I was looking forward to this fight and I’m ready to continue my success. This is the first (назву пояса) of many. I got what I worked hard for. I want to thank my coaches, all the work paid off, and now I have this (назву пояса).”
У са-прыкметах падзеі, Minneapolis паўсярэдняй вазе Javonte Старкоў (13-2, 7 КО) and Mexican veteran Сезар Сориано (28-36-2, 17 КО) fought to a six-round majority draw.

Another pro-debuting California fighter, у першым нападаючым вазе Чаз Масиаса, needed only1:20 to knockout Omaha’s Corey Roberts.

KO Night Boxing signs “The Dragon” Popular Canadian junior welterweight Steve Claggett

Пакінуць каментар

Лас-Вегасе (Студзеня 25, 2018) — KO Night Boxing LLC announced it has signed popular Canadian junior welterweight Стыў “The Dragon” Claggett ў эксклюзіўны рэкламны кантракт.

The Las Vegas-based company also has 2016 Olympic bronze medalist and undefeated Wichita flyweight, Ніка Hernandez (3-0), 2 КО), among its growing stable of professional boxers.
The 28-year-old Claggett (26-4-1, 17 КО), fighting out of Calgary, is a fan-favorite because of his aggressive, non-stop style. Since the ultra-aggressive Claggett moved back down one division to junior welterweight, Claggett is a perfect 3-0 (1 KO), including a pair of title-winning 10-round decisions over previously unbeaten opponents,Іў Ulysse, Малодшы. (14-0) за вакантны Міжнароднай федэрацыі бокса (IBF) North American super lightweight title, а таксама Emmanuel Robles (15-0-1) for the vacant World Boxing Association (WBA) NABA USA super lightweight crown.
“I’m excited to be signed by John Andersen and KO Night Boxing,” Claggett said. “There were no guarantees (without a promoter). I’ve always had the talent but never the structure. I’ll have that now, хоць. It was always difficult making fights with long layoffs, dates falling through, and offers on short notice. I’ve only been able to show a little of what I’m capable. All I’ve ever wanted is a fair shake and this opportunity will allow me to show what I can do. This year is going to be big for me and KO Night Boxing.
“I’m just approaching my prime. I’ve only been working with my trainer, Vlad Goldenstein, for a little more than a year, але я 3-0 with him and have won two belts. Я старая школа знішчальнік, action-packed and who brings the pace. This is a great for me and my boxing career.”
“We’re taking a big step in the right direction by signing Steve,” Claggett’s new promoter Andersen commented. “Я ўсхваляваны. Steve deserves this opportunity and we’re going to deliver for him.
“Steve is an action fighter, always coming forward, and he hasn’t been in a bad fight during the three years I’ve known him. He took a risk but really opened some eyes with his performance against Ulysse. What an accomplishment fighting an undefeated fighter in his backyard. He took a big risk and got a big win. And now he’s beaten the man (Ulysse) who has beaten the man (21-0 Cletus Seldin, WDEC10, Снежні. 16, 2017 на HBO). Steve’s undefeated on this run as a junior welterweight, beating two previously unbeaten opponents, and he deserves more recognition and a shot at a big fight.”
“Steve’s an animal in the squared circle and the farthest thing from it outside the ring,” Claggett’s manager Max Matheny дабаўленай. “He has all the attributes of a champion. His boxing IQ and ability to adapt under pressure makes Claggett a serious challenge. He can beat anybody in the division on any given night. We’ve had a multitude of promotional offers to consider at the end of a strong 2017 and are very excited to align with KO Night Boxing. They are going to give us the opportunities to show the world how good ‘The Dragon’ really is. His signature is turning into an autograph in 2018, mark my words.”
The boxing irony is that Ulysse, not Claggett, is now world ranked. Considering the half-Chinese, half-European Claggett beat Ulysse in his Montreal hometown, Steve proved that he’ll fight anybody, ўсюды, unlike many fighters who make that claim but don’t back it up. “Me and my team aren’t afraid to fight anybody,” he spoke about his most significant fight to date. “Bring it on! I’m willing to fight in hostile territory against an A-side fighter. We don’t pick and choose. Too many fighters pad their records, but that only upsets fans, and delays fights. I’m looking for tough fights to judge how much I’ve grown. I’d love to fight the top guys.
“My fight with Ulysse was my biggest but not best fight. I thought I boxed a little robotic and fell back into some old habits. I’d give myself a B- for that fight. I got the win and put on a great show that was fast paced. Ulysse and Robles box, run and move. I’d like an opponent who comes to me, stays in the pocket, and fights. I know it’ll be a helluva fight.”
Maybe Claggett’s next fight will be on a higher platform, магчыма, against a legitimate fighter’s fighter like Steve.

Дзеянне будзе тасьмой жыць для будучага выхаду ў эфір на CBS Sports Network.
The 21-year-old Hernandez (3-0, 2 КО), змагаюцца Вічыта, will be fighting in a scheduled eight-round bout for the first time. His three pro fights to date were all scheduled for six rounds and each was held in Kansas, the last two in his second home, Hartman Arena.
In his last fight this past September 23й, Hernandez was forced to fight late replacement Kendrick “Uprising” Latchman who outweighed the celebrated American Olympian by more than 10 фунты. Hernandez won a six-round unanimous decision by scores of 60-54 і 59-55 двойчы.
Despite being younger than Hernandez by almost a year to the day, Ajtai (19-9, 12 КО) has already had 28 пра баі, including a full 10-round distance loss by decision last year to two-time Olympic gold medalist Shiming Цзоу, былы Сусветнай баксёрскай арганізацыі (WBO) найлягчэйшых вазе свету.
“By far, Nico is fighting the toughest opponent of his pro career,” Эрнандэс’ прамоўтэр John Andersen (“KO Night Boxing LLC) сказаў. “Ajtai has much more experience as a pro than Nico, plus he went the distance against a two-time Olympic gold medalist, Zou. Ajtai is a busy fighter with a good knockout ratio (63%). This fight is going to tell us a lot about Nico, especially his power at 112 фунты.
“Nico fighting for a title in only his fourth pro fight proves that all our hard efforts of KO Night Boxing and Team Nico has paid off quickly and we’re grateful that the IBA has given him this great opportunity. I didn’t realize the high quality of champions the IBA has had in the past and we’re proud that Nico can someday join this group. In the flyweight division, Nico may enter world title fight shot discussions earlier than I had originally thought, which was in his third year as a pro. An impressive performance against Ajtai could position him for a world title fight next year with less than 10 fights under his belt.”
“We’re excited to have an American Olympian fighting for our first Americas title,” IBA PresidentJ.C. Courreges дабаўленай. “Nico Hernandez is an Olympic bronze medalist and we’re hopeful that he will develop into an IBA world champion in the not too distant future.

Пакінуць каментар
New USBA Featherweight Champion Jose Haro has issued a brief statement regarding the status of his fallen opponent, Даніэль Франка, through his promotional representative, Whitfield Haydon:

“I respect all fighters. My heart hurts knowing that my opponent from Субота night is still in the hospital. I hope he has a full and speedy recovery. Nothing but love, brotha. We put everything on the line when we step inside the ring. I always tell my brother/trainer that I’m a father first, fighter second, and if he ever sees me badly hurt to stop the fight because my kids need their daddy. I’m very grateful that I won but it really doesn’t feel like I won. I always pray that my opponent and myself come out our fight in good health. Let’s go #TeamFranco, you got this!”

Чэрвеня 10 live from Iowa on CBS Sports Network
SLOAN, IA (Мая 31, 2017) – An injury has forced NABO Junior Welterweight Champion Maurice “Майці Мо” Hooker (22-0-3, 16 КО) to withdraw from his scheduled “KO Night бокса: WAR In WinnaVegas” headline event against Abdiel “Mortero” Рамірэс, на Субота, Чэрвеня 10, вентыляцыя (10 p.m. І / 7 p.m. PT) on CBS Sports Network live from WinnaVegas Casino Resort in Sloan, Аёва.
“KO Night бокса: WAR In WinnaVegas” is presented by KO Night Boxing LLC, in association with Roc Nation Sports, Ringside Ticket Inc. and WinnaVegas Resort Casino. TITLE Boxing is the official gloves provider for KO Night Boxing.

WBC Oriental Super Lightweight Champion Zhimin Wang (8-1, 3 КО), Кітай, will face Dallas lightweight Manuel Rey Rojas (14-3, 4 КО) as an addition to the card. Elevated to main event status is the original 10-round co-feature being contested for the vacant United States Boxing Association (USBA) featherweight title, matching former USBA champion Daniel “Twitch” Франка (15-1-3, 10 КО), who fights out of Rancho Cucamonga, Каліфорнія, and Utah favorite Jose Haro (13-1-1, 7 КО).

The 25-year-old Franco (15-1-3, 10 КО), who fights under the Roc Nation Sports banner, was a standout amateur boxer captured the vacant USBA featherweight title last November, knocking out previously unbeaten Derrick Murray (13-0-1) in four rounds. He lost the belt in his following fight, stopped by veteran Christopher Martin (29-8-3) in the third round of their non-title fight in Los Angeles on Сакавіка 23. Franco is currently rated No. 5 by the USBA and No. 11 by the NABO.

Haro (13-1-1, 7 КО), USBA No. 14-намінальны, is an all-action fighter with tremendous potential. The 29-year-old is presently riding a six-fight win streak with five victories and one draw. His lone loss as a professional was to highly-touted prospect Toka Kahn Clary (11-0) by way of a six-round decision in 2014.

The new 10-round co-feature will be an exciting match-up between Wang and Rojas (14-3, 4 КО). Last January in China, Zhimin defeated Aekkawee Kaewmanee (16-6), by way of a 10-round unanimous decision for the vacant WBO Oriental crown. The only blemish on Zhimin’s otherwise perfect pro record is a 10-round loss by decision last September, to then 12-0 Russian prospect Ivan Baranchyk in Oklahoma.

“I honestly felt that Haro vs. Franco was a legitimate main event fight as the co-feature,” promoter John Andersen. “Injuries are an unfortunate part of boxing and we’re disappointed to lose a world-class fighter like Hooker. Зараз, хоць, Haro-Franco gets top billing and we’re fortunate to have a solid co-feature added to a very competitive, entertaining card.”

The TV opener features Chicago super bantamweight prospect Giovanni Mioletti (7-0, 1 KO) taking on Las Vegas’ upset-minded Sal Lopez (4-1) на працягу шасці-раўндавым паядынку. In a pair of four-round undercard matches, Sioux City, Iowa cruiserweight Shalyn Joseph will make his pro debut against Chicago’s Darrius Flowers (0-1), while Sioux Falls, South Dakota super welterweightKeith Cournoyer (0-0-1), квадратаў з з Justin Likeness, of Minot, North Dakota.

Roc Nation Спорт’ Hooker (22-0-3, 16 КО) will defend his North American Boxing Organization (NABO) junior welterweight against title challenger Abdiel “Mortero” Рамірэс (23-1-1, 21 КО) у галоўнай падзеі 10-раўндавым.
Fighting out of Dallas, Hooker is world rated at No. 2 Сусветнай баксёрскай арганізацыі (WBO), і Няма. 4 by the International Boxing Federation (IBF). The 27-year-old Hooker was a decorated amateur boxer in Texas, finishing with a 97-7 (67 КО) запіс, who turned pro in 2011.

Рамірэс, 25, is a former FECOMBOX Lightweight Champion, fighting out of Ciudad Juarez, Мексіка. Рамірэс, who is riding a nine-fight win streak, will be fighting outside of his native Mexico for the first time against Hooker.
The 10-round co-feature for the vacant United States Boxing Association (USBA) featherweight crown has been in the works for a while and it could very well steal the show as former USBA champion Данііл “Twitch” Франка бярэ на сябе Jose Haro.
The 25-year-old Franco (15-1-3, 10 КО), fighting out of Rancho Cucamonga, Каліфорнія, started boxing at the age of eight, назапашваючы аматарскай запісу 67-15, highlighted by gold-medal performances at the 2006 Oxnard PAL Championships and 2017 California State Silver Gloves Championships.

Franco was stopped in his last fight by veteran Christopher Martin (29-8-3) in the third round of their non-title fight in Los Angeles on Сакавіка 23. Franco is currently rated No. 5 by the USBA and No. 11 by the NABO.
USBA No. 14-rated Haro (13-1-1, 7 КО), who is a well-kept secret outside of West Jordan, Utah, is an all-action fighter. The 29-year-old has won his last five fights, unbeaten in in his last six with a draw, since suffering his only loss to highly-touted prospect Toka Kahn Clary (11-0) by way of a six-round decision in 2014.
