Hernandez’ originale adversaire, Hungarian champion Joseph Ajtai (19-9, 12 KOs), never made it to Wichita due to a series of unfortunate circumstances. Ajtai lost one day in Frankfurt, Allemagne, after leaving his passport on the plane he took from Budapest. Once he landed in Chicago mercredi, 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,” organisateur John Andersen dit. “Encore une fois, Nico made the proper adjustment that can be credited to his amateur pedigree. Chez les 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’ sécurité.
“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 (ceinture de titre) 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 (ceinture de titre).”

2016 médaillé de bronze olympique Nico Hernandez & Hungarian champion Jozsef Ajtai have taken different paths into pro ranks

“KO Night Boxing: Or & Gloire” pour
vacant IBA Americas flyweight title
Décembre. 2 à Hartman Arena à Park City, KS
PARK CITY, Kansas (Novembre 20, 2017) – USA Olympian and hometown hero Nico Hernandez and Hungarian flyweight champion Jozsef “Petit rouge” Ajtai took completely different paths into the professional ranks.
Hernandez vs, Ajtai is the eight-round main event for the vacant International Boxing Association (IBA) Americas flyweight title fight, Samedi nuit, Décembre 2, sur “KO Night Boxing: Or & Gloire” carte, à Hartman Arena à Park City, Kansas.
“KO Night Boxing: Or & Gloire” est une présentation de KO Night Boxing LLC., en association avec Hartman Arena, et parrainé en partie par Twister Ville Harley-Davidson Metro PCS, Cigar Bar Mort etJimmy’s Egg.
L'action sera enregistrée en direct pour l'avenir sur le réseau diffusion CBS Sports.
The 21-year-old Hernandez (3-0, 2 KOs), combats de Wichita, was a decorated amateur boxer who compiled a sterling 123-12 record, highlighted by his bronze-medal winning performance at the 2016 Jeux Olympiques au Brésil. Hernandez made his pro debut last March. All his fights have been at home, each has been in the main event, et à la télévision nationale. His fight against Ajtai, cependant, will be his first title fight, coming in only his fourth pro bout.
Ajtai, qui est un an et six jours plus jeune que Hernandez, made his professional debut 2 Il y a ½ ans, and he’s already fought in five title fights.
Hernandez’ amateur pedigree versus Ajtai’s pro experience?
“I feel like I’m already at the level of a lot of top pro fighters,” Hernandez a déclaré. The only advantage he has is he’s used to fighting more rounds than I (this is Nico’s first scheduled 8-rounder), but I don’t plan on letting it go the distance anyways.
“I feel blessed to have this IBA title fight opportunity so early in my pro career. It honestly couldn’t come any faster. I do believe it will be special and open a tot of opportunities to fight bigger names once I win this fight. A win should open-up additional title fight opportunities, both overseas and, avec optimisme, back here at home to help us continue building Wichita into a fight town.”
Ajtai (19-9, 12 KOs) has already had 28 combats professionnels, including a full 10-round distance loss by decision last year at Madison Square Garden in New York City to two-time Olympic gold medalist Shiming Zou, l'ancien World Boxing Organization (WBO) champion poids mouche du monde. The Hungarian has fought at home in Hungary, as well as on the road in the United Kingdom, Espagne, Allemagne, L'Ukraine et la Slovaquie. A trip to America’s heartland doesn’t faze him in the least.
“He will be at home, where everybody wants to fight, but this isn’t a problem for me,” Ajtai explained. “I know he is a good boxer, but I will try to be a bit better December 2Dakota du Nord. When my condition is good, as it is for this fight, nobody likes to fight me.
“Ceci est une grande opportunité pour moi. It’s always difficult to beat a good fighter but doing so is real success. Fighting Shiming Zou in only my fourth fight was very nice for me. I want that feeling again in this fight against Nico.”
Hernandez realizes that this fight could be his last at home for a while, due to the lack of quality American flyweights, and that most world-class fighters in his weight class are from Central America, Thailand and Japan.
“I don’t think I’ll have many more fights at home,” Hernandez admits. “I don’t think that will matter too much because I feel more pressure fighting at home than elsewhere. I will miss everyone cheering my name like they do at home. I think I’ll be traveling more to fight bigger names to work my way up the ladder until I’m at the top.
“I think the early rounds in this fight (vs. Ajtai) will be a chess match because, from what I’ve seen, he runs a lot. I feel that once I start landing my body shots, he’ll slowdown in the latter rounds. et, like I’ve said, I don’t plan on this fight going the distance.”
Ajtai, bien sûr, isn’t traveling all the way to Kansas to visit Dorothy or the Wizard of Oz, il vient de gagner!
“Nico ne saura pas où je serai dans le ring,” Ajtai prédit. “Quand il se tourne vers la gauche pour moi, Je vais aller à droite; quand il essaie de me trouver à droite, Je serai sur la gauche. Quand il veut se reposer, Je viendrai poinçonner avant; quand il veut frapper, il ne me trouvera pas.
“J'ai un plan pour ce combat et je suis sûr qu'il fait aussi bien. Mais, dans le ring, que le plan d'un combattant peut réussir. Ça va être un bon combat, mais je ne peux pas promettre au public que Nico sera le vainqueur.”
The full “Or & Gloire” card will be announced later this week. Tous les combats et les combattants sont sujets à changement.

PARK CITY, KANSAS (Octobre 23, 2017) – 2016 médaillé de bronze olympique Nico Hernandez will be fighting for his first professional title on Samedi, Décembre 2, when he takes on Hungarian invaderJozsef “Petit rouge” Ajtai in the eight-round main event for the vacant International Boxing Association (IBA) Flyweight Championship, tête d'affiche “KO Night Boxing: Or & Gloire” à Hartman Arena à Park City, Kansas.

“KO Night Boxing: Or & Gloire” est une présentation de KO Night Boxing LLC., en association avec Hartman Arena, et parrainé en partie par Twister Ville Harley-Davidson Metro PCS, Cigar Bar Mort et Jimmy Egg.

L'action sera enregistrée en direct pour l'avenir sur le réseau diffusion CBS Sports.
The 21-year-old Hernandez (3-0, 2 KOs), combats de Wichita, 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, Arena Hartman.
In his last fight this past September 23e, Hernandez was forced to fight late replacement Kendrick “Uprising” Latchman who outweighed the celebrated American Olympian by more than 10 livres. Hernandez won a six-round unanimous decision by scores of 60-54 et 59-55 deux fois.
Despite being younger than Hernandez by almost a year to the day, Ajtai (19-9, 12 KOs) has already had 28 combats professionnels, including a full 10-round distance loss by decision last year to two-time Olympic gold medalist Shiming Zou, l'ancien World Boxing Organization (WBO) champion poids mouche du monde.
“By far, Nico is fighting the toughest opponent of his pro career,” Hernandez’ organisateur John Andersen (“KO Night Boxing LLC) dit. “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 livres.
“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. Courrèges ajoutée. “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. His amateur pedigree speaks for itself and we’re very happy to have this young man fighting for the IBA Americas title.”
