Once he landed in Chicago on Wednesday, he was tied up by a visa issue at U.S. Customs.

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.

2016 Olympic bronze medalist Nico Hernandez & Hungarian champion Jozsef Ajtai have taken different paths into pro ranks

“KO Hmo ntuj Boxing: kub & Glory” rau
vacant IBA Americas flyweight title
Dec. 2 ntawm Hartman Arena nyob rau hauv chaw ua si Lub nroog, KS
TIAJ UA SI NROOG, Kansas (Kaum Ib Hlis Ntuj 20, 2017) – USA Olympian and hometown hero Nico Hernandez and Hungarian flyweight champion Jozsef “Me liab” 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, Saturday hmo ntuj, Kaum Ob Hlis Ntuj 2, nyob rau hauv lub “KO Hmo ntuj Boxing: kub & Glory” card, ntawm Hartman Arena nyob rau hauv chaw ua si Lub nroog, Kansas.
“KO Hmo ntuj Boxing: kub & Glory” yog ib tug kev nthuav qhia ntawm KO Hmo ntuj Boxing LLC., nyob rau hauv lub koom haum nrog Hartman Arena, thiab kev txhawb nqa nyob rau hauv ib feem los ntawm Twister City Harley Davidson- Metro PCS, Mort’s Cigar Bar thiabJimmy’s Egg.
Qhov kev txiav txim yuav tsum muaj kev sib tw nyob rau yav tom ntej airing on CBS Cov kev ua si Network.
The 21-year-old Hernandez (3-0, 2 Kos), sib ntaus sib tua tawm ntawm Wichita, was a decorated amateur boxer who compiled a sterling 123-12 cov ntaub ntawv, highlighted by his bronze-medal winning performance at the 2016 Olympic ua si nyob rau hauv Brazil. Hernandez made his pro debut last March. All his fights have been at home, each has been in the main event, and on national television. His fight against Ajtai, Txawm li cas los, will be his first title fight, coming in only his fourth pro bout.
Ajtai, uas yog ib lub xyoo thiab rau hnub nyoog yau dua Hernandez, made his professional debut 2 ½ years ago, 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 said. 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, hopefully, back here at home to help us continue building Wichita into a fight town.
Ajtai (19-9, 12 Kos) has already had 28 pro sib ntaus, 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, lub qub ntiaj teb Boxing Organization (WBO) Flyweight ntiaj teb no yeej. The Hungarian has fought at home in Hungary, as well as on the road in the United Kingdom, Spain, Lub teb chaws yelemees, Ukraine thiab Slovakia. 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 2nd. When my condition is good, as it is for this fight, nobody likes to fight me.
“Qhov no yog ib tug loj lub sij hawm rau kuv. 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. thiab, like I’ve said, I don’t plan on this fight going the distance.
Ajtai, ntawm chav kawm, isn’t traveling all the way to Kansas to visit Dorothy or the Wizard of Oz, nws tuaj los yeej!
“Nico yuav tsis paub tias qhov twg kuv yuav tsum tau nyob rau hauv lub nplhaib,” Ajtai kwv yees. “Thaum nws zoo mus rau sab laug rau kuv, Kuv yuav mus rau sab xis; thaum nws ncav mus nrhiav tau kuv nyob rau txoj cai, Kuv yuav nyob ntawm sab laug. Thaum nws xav mus so, Kuv yuav tuaj rau pem hauv ntej xuas nrig ntaus; thaum nws xav tshum, nws yuav tsis pom kuv.
“Kuv muaj ib lub hom phiaj rau qhov no sib ntaus thiab kuv paub hais tias nws tsis zoo li. Tab sis, nyob rau hauv lub nplhaib, tsuas yog ib fighter txoj hau kev yuav kawm tau ntawv zoo. Nws tseem yuav mus yuav ib tug zoo sib ntaus, tab sis kuv yuav tsis cog lus rau pej xeem uas Nico yuav yog tus khiav.”
The full “kub & Glory” card will be announced later this week. Tag nrho cov sib ntaus thiab tua hluav taws yuav raug hloov.

TIAJ UA SI NROOG, KANSAS (Lub kaum hli ntuj 23, 2017) – 2016 Olympic bronze medalist Nico Hernandez will be fighting for his first professional title on Saturday, Kaum Ob Hlis Ntuj 2, when he takes on Hungarian invaderJozsef “Me liab” Ajtai in the eight-round main event for the vacant International Boxing Association (IBA) Flyweight Championship, headlining “KO Hmo ntuj Boxing: kub & Glory” ntawm Hartman Arena nyob rau hauv chaw ua si Lub nroog, Kansas.

“KO Hmo ntuj Boxing: kub & Glory” yog ib tug kev nthuav qhia ntawm KO Hmo ntuj Boxing LLC., nyob rau hauv lub koom haum nrog Hartman Arena, thiab kev txhawb nqa nyob rau hauv ib feem los ntawm Twister City Harley Davidson- Metro PCS, Mort’s Cigar Bar thiab Jimmy Egg.

Qhov kev txiav txim yuav tsum muaj kev sib tw nyob rau yav tom ntej airing on CBS Cov kev ua si Network.
The 21-year-old Hernandez (3-0, 2 Kos), sib ntaus sib tua tawm ntawm 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, Hartman Arena.
In his last fight this past September 23rd, Hernandez was forced to fight late replacement Kendrick “Uprising” Latchman who outweighed the celebrated American Olympian by more than 10 phaus. Hernandez won a six-round unanimous decision by scores of 60-54 thiab 59-55 ob zaug.
Despite being younger than Hernandez by almost a year to the day, Ajtai (19-9, 12 Kos) has already had 28 pro sib ntaus, including a full 10-round distance loss by decision last year to two-time Olympic gold medalist Shiming Zou, lub qub ntiaj teb Boxing Organization (WBO) Flyweight ntiaj teb no yeej.
By far, Nico is fighting the toughest opponent of his pro career,” Hernandez’ pab txhawb John Andersen (“KO Night Boxing LLC) hais tias. “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 phaus.
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 ntxiv. “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.
IBA world champions during the past quarter-century include Hall-of-Famers Oscar tsib la Hoya,George foreman, Roberto Duran thiab Arturo Gatti, as well as stars such as Roy Jones, Jr.,Bernard Hopkins, Shane Mosely, James Toney, Mikkel Kessler, Eric Morales, Diego Corrales, Jose Luis Castillo, Glen Johnson thiab Antonio Tarver.
