World-Rated Russian Light Heavyweight Ali Izmailov Returns Saturday for Showdown Against Detroit’s James Ballard in Dearborn, MINU

Sel laupäeval, Oktoober 16, IBF #11, WBC #14 and WBO #15 light heavyweight Ali Izmailov (5-0, 3 Kos) returns to action against capable hometown veteran James Ballard (10-3, 3 Kos) in the eight-round main event of promoters Kenny D Moore and Vi Tran’s of Second 2 None Promotions’ “Best of Tomorrow 12” event at the Performance Arts Center in Dearborn, Michigan.


The 28-year-old Izmailov, from Malgobek, Venemaa, is a former amateur standout who won multiple elite international tournaments. Already world-rated as a professional at just 5-0, 3 Kos, Izmailov recently started working with world-famous Florida-based trainer John David Jackson at his Action Jackson Boxing Academy in Fort Lauderdale.


Jackson, who has spent the last three weeks sizing up his new protegee, says Izmailov is a diamond in the rough waiting for polish.


“The sky is the limit for him with his punching power,” said Jackson of Izmailov. “He’s a tremendous puncher, but he’s also got natural boxing skills. Nagu võitleja, I don’t think he realizes his potential. I’m getting him to move his head more and throw more combinations, instead of one power punch at a time. Nothing against his old trainers, but once he learns to throw three or four shots to set them up and camouflage the hard ones, he will be unstoppable.”


Jackson says the 32-year-old Ballard will be a good test for Izmailov and his newfound skills, but shouldn’t be able to derail any of their plans.


“Ballard is good, but Ali just has to pressure him and go to the body to break him down. Once his opponents feel his power, they all have a change of heart. Once Ali hits him with some good shots, it’ll be a matter of time.”


“Ali has amazing potential to be a star and John David is the perfect trainer to bring that out of him,” said Izmailov’s promoter, Dmitriy Salita. “I think you’ll see the improvements immediately under his expert tutelage. Ali was already the best prospect in the light heavyweight division.”


Tickets for “Best of Tomorrow 12” are priced at $25 - $1,000 and can be purchased online through Eventbrite.com. On Fight Night, the action starts at 7:00 pm. The Ford Community & Performing Arts Center is located at 15801 Michigan Avenue in Dearborn, MINU. The event is sponsored by One Punch Knockout Gym, Topbreed Management, Pharaoh Website Hosting & Restaurant Online Ordering Service, MJ Diamonds, Family Tied Entertainment.

NEW YORK (Aprill 6, 2016) - Showtime Sport® presents its latest installment of a year-long salute commemorating 30 years of Showtime MEISTRIVÕISTLUSED BOXING® with “Fights of the Year” in April on SHO EXTREME®.

 

The fourth round of a 12-month tribute will be highlighted by four of the most rousing and unforgettable fights in boxing history:

  • Jorge Castro vs. John David Jackson I - 1994 Ring Magazine Fight of the Year (Ümber 9 earned Round of the Year honors)
  • Paulie Ayala vs. Johnny Tapia Mina - 1999 Ring Magazine Fight of the Year (Ayala earned Fighter of the Year honors)

The four celebrated battles will air on “Throwback Thursdays” all month at 10 Pärastlõunal. JA/PT on SHO EXTREME and are available on SHOWTIME ON DEMAND®, Showtime pakkumistele® and via the network’s online streaming service. Each fight will be wrapped with brief context and commentary from SHOWTIME Sports ring announcer and International Boxing Hall of Fame inductee Jimmy Lennon Jr.

 

Below is the schedule of SHOWTIME EXTREME premieres for the month of April:

  • Neljapäev, Aprill 7: Jorge Castro vs. John David Jackson I
  • Neljapäev, Aprill 14: Lucas Matthysse vs. John Molina Jr.
  • Neljapäev, Aprill 21: Diego Corrales vs. Jose Luis Castillo I
  • Neljapäev, Aprill 28: Paulie Ayala vs. Johnny Tapia I

 

Castro-Jackson I (Detsember. 10, 1994, Castro KO 9) –Castro, thoroughly battered, bloodied and losing by a wide margin, rallies from the absolute brink of defeat to score three knockdowns in the ninth round to overcome Jackson in one of the most dramatic turnarounds ever.

 

Ayala-Tapia I (Juuni 26, 1999, Ayala W 12) – In some of the fiercest two-way action in the history of Las Vegas boxing, southpaw Ayala hands Tapia his first professional loss in 49 fights and captures the WBA bantamweight title by the scores of 115-114 ja 116-113 kaks korda. Game On: As the boxers were being announced, Tapia walked across the ring and shoved Ayala causing a momentary skirmish.

 

Diego Corrales-Jose Luis Castillo I (Mai 7, 2005, Corrales TKO 10)After nine intense, back-and-forth rounds, Corrales accomplishes the unthinkable, miraculously regrouping from kaks knockdowns in the 10th to stop Castillo in the same round (2:06) and etch his spot in boxing lore. After managing to beat the count (and lose a point for excessive spitting out of the mouthpiece), Corrales got Castillo on the ropes and connected with a huge right hand. He continued to unload and Castillo got nailed with a bundle of vicious punches. Hetked hiljem, the ref stopped it.

 

Lucas Matthysse-John Molina Jr. (Aprill 26, 2014, Matthysse KO 11)Abloody slugfest, in which both fighters were knocked down multiple times,became an instant classic. Matthysse who went down in the second and fifth rounds, came back with a late-fight onslaught to wear down and drop Molina in the eighth, 10th ja 11th vooru. The tremendous brawl was as brutal as it was exciting and more compelling to witness than anyone could have imagined.

John David Jacksoni täheõpilane Luis “Kuuba”Aariad on valmis oma esimeseks peaauhinnaks

Alatised keskmise raskusega pealkirjad Sel laupäevalöö Columbuses, Ohio.

For Immediate Release
NEW YORK, NY (Märts 3, 2016)–Sel laupäeval öö sisse Columbus, Ohio,
Victory Sports & Meelelahutus on hea meel teatada, et võitmata keskmise raskusega väljavaade, Luis “Kuuba” Aariad teeb esimese, mida me loodame, on palju peaesinevaid esinemisi, kui ta astub võimule mulgustamiseks Brasiiliast pärit Gilberto Santosega kümnes voorus, mis on ette nähtud maailmatasemel treeneri juhendamisel, John David Jackson.

Milwaukee aariad, Wisconsini rekord on täiuslik 13-0 kuue nokaudid.

“Laager on olnud suurepärane. Asjad on kenasti ja õigel ajal kokku tulnud. Ma saan iga laagriga paremaks ja tugevamaks,” Ütles Arias. “Ma ei jäta Santost tähelepanuta, kuna ta on tugev võitleja, kes tuleb võitma, kuid see on minu aeg ja ma tahan teha avalduse oma esimeses pealinnas.”

“Treenimine John David Jacksoni juures on olnud suurepärane. Kellegi oma kogemustega tase on aidanud mul hävitajana areneda. Ta on aidanud viia minu mängu teisele tasemele. Tema ja Derik Santos on mulle hästi sobinud. Mul on tunne, et mul on parim treeningmeeskond poksis.”

The 25 -aastane tuli pärast täht-amatöörkarjääri kõrgete püüdlustega profiritta, mis nägi teda võitmas kaks USA riiklikku meistrivõistlust ja riikliku PAL tiitli, lisaks arvukatele rahvusvahelisel tasemel medalitele.
Jacksonis, tal on treener, kes on koolitanud paljusid maailmameistreid ja kes on tänu praeguse kergete raskekaalu meister Sergei Kovaljoviga üks kuumimaid poksijaid,.

“Luisil on olnud suurepärane laager, ta on tugev ja kaalus. Ta on valmis oma esimeseks pealetungiks ning soovib näidata oma talenti ja näidata inimestele, et ta on tõeline tehing,”ütles Jackson oma hinnatud õpilase kohta,” Said Jackson.

“Selle laagri jaoks rõhutame keha rünnakut. Luis on hea poksija, suurepäraste oskuste ja jõuga. Püüame arendada tema kõikehõlmavat mängu, nii et keskendume selle võitluse jaoks rohkem keha treenimisele.”

Jackson ei tunne, et Kuuba Arias oleks lihtsalt iga poksija. Ta näeb tema jaoks tulevikus suuri asju.
“Luisil on potentsiaali tulla maailmameistriks. Ta oli tohutu amatöör, Ta on kõva, määratud suurepärase jõu ja suurepäraste oskustega. 2016 peaks olema tema läbimurde aasta. Tal on oskused ja teda tuleb näidata suuremal laval. On aeg mähised maha võtta ja lasta tal end tõestada. Ta saab võidelda, ta muutub iga korraga paremaks, ta soovib end proovile panna suuremates kaklustes ja on väljakutseks valmis.”

“Pärast seda võitlust, Ma tahan Luisile tõelist testi, hea nimega võitleja, kus teda saab vaidlustada ja ta peab töötama. Ma tean, et ta võib olla suurepärane ja tõuseb sellega seoses esile, nii et ma lihtsalt soovin, et ta saaks võimaluse tutvustada oma oskusi ja näidata kõigile, milline suurepärane võitleja ta on.”
Aariad, keda reklaamib Roc Nation Sports ja kes haldas minu võidusporti & Meelelahutus, nüüd on kogu meeskond paigas koos maailmatasemel treeneriga.
Ütles, et Võidusport & Meelelahutuse Rick Torres, “2016 on aasta, kus Kuuba peab konkurentsi taset tõstma ja kõigile näitama, kui hea ta on. See on tema esimene peapakkumine, mis on tema jaoks suur asi ja me teame, et Santos on ohtlik vastane, kellel on tõeline löögivõime, nii et see peaks olema Kuuba jaoks hea proovikivi. Pärast seda võitlust ootame Roc Nationit kõrgema profiiliga võitlustele, Televisioonivõitlus toimub seal, kus maailm saab näha seda, mida me juba teame – et ta on üks parimaid noori võitlejaid maailmas ja tulevane meister. Õige arenguga võib Kuuba saada spordis tähelennuks ja me teame, et Roc Nation võib selle juhtuda. Tahame lihtsalt võimalust ja Kuuba saab ülejäänutega hakkama.”
