Coyle inspired by Katie Taylor’s performance

Zostaw komentarz

Tampa, Floryda (Maj 2, 2022) – Like most who love the sweet science, niepokonany średniej Connor „The Kid” Coyle was fully engaged in the Katie Taylor–Amanda Serrano walka.


Recognized as the biggest in women’s boxing history, Taylor-Serrano took place in front more than 19,000 fans at a sold out Madison Square Garden. It was the first time a female fight headlined at The Mecca of Boxing.


Following four fast-paced and competitive rounds, Serrano rocked Taylor in the fifth with a left hook followed by a left cross. Taylor was in bad shape and nearly tasted the canvas for the first time in her career but managed to finish the round on her feet.


Serrano kept the momentum over the next few rounds as she appeared to be headed towards the biggest win of her great career. Taylor impressively turned the tides in the final three rounds of the contest, finding her second wind and outfighting Serrano en route to a split decision victory.


“What an incredible fight that was – major credit to both women” said Coyle, who trained with Taylor in Dublin when both were amateurs. “Katie really had to overcome a lot of adversity against Serrano especially in the fifth round. Katie showed incredible heart and came through like a champion. She’s a true warrior and great inspiration for me heading into the most important fight of my career.”


Coyle, 15-0 (7 KO), meets Antonio Todd in a ten round contest for the NABA middleweight title Sobota, Maj 21 z Caribe Royale in Orlando, Floryda. Coyle-Todd airs live on Bally Sports Network jako część Entrobox Championship Boxing Series w 9 pm et.

McCaskill przygląda się pojedynkowi z Taylorem i Shieldsem


Chicago, IL (Marzec 17, 2021) – Świeżo po swoim drugim z rzędu zwycięstwie nad przyszłą Hall of Fame, Cecilia Braekhus, niekwestionowany mistrz wagi półśredniej, Jessica McCaskill chce walczyć z największymi nazwiskami kobiecego obwodu.


McCaskill z Chicago, łatwo wyprzedził legendarnego Braekhusa o dziesiątki 100-89, 99-90 i 98-91 aby wygrać piąty z rzędu i podnieść swój rekord do 10-2.


“Czułem, że moja agresja była naprawdę dobra, po prostu utrzymując ciśnienie bez przerwy, i jesteśmy gotowi na to, co dalej. Wbiegała, i tłoczyła się, i pomyślałem, czy będzie wbiegać, Musiałbym oddać przynajmniej jeden lub dwa strzały, i robiła to dalej, więc też to robiłem. Chciałem się poruszyć i pokazać więcej kątów, ale ona przychodziła prosto, więc była tam,” powiedział McCaskill.


“Kolejnym punktem programu może być walka z Katie Taylor. Jeśli tak jest, byłoby świetnie. Jeśli to nie zadziała, jest tam kilka innych nazw. Jeśli chodzi o Claressa Shields, McCaskill uważa, że ​​może dojść do walki z nią, “To mogłaby być możliwość, gdyby Claressa mogła dojść do tego 147 funtów. Najpierw, powiedziała, że ​​nie zrzuci żadnej wagi, a teraz mówi, że tak, więc będziemy musieli tylko sprawdzić, czy potraktują to poważnie.”

Powiedział promotor McCaskilla, Leon Margules z Warriors Boxing, “Jessica po raz kolejny udowodniła, że ​​jest jedną z najlepszych zawodniczek na świecie. Teraz zdominowała wojownika, który przez długi czas był funtem dla czołowego boksera. Chcielibyśmy walczyć z każdym, a walka z Katie Taylor z pewnością miałaby inny wynik niż ich pierwsza walka. Walki z Taylorem lub Claressą byłyby historycznymi walkami, ponieważ zmierzyłyby się ze sobą dwoma panującymi niekwestionowanymi mistrzami.”

Troy Anderson wagi piórkowej z Bostonu, Jr. Skorzystał ze sparingu z niekwestionowaną mistrzynią świata w wadze lekkiej Katie Taylor

Zostaw komentarz

BOSTON (Luty 17, 2021) - Waga piórkowa BostonTroy Anderson, Jr.  jeszcze nie zadebiutował zawodowo, ale ostatnio miał okazję walczyć z niekwestionowanym mistrzem świata w wadze lekkiejKatie Taylor (17-0, 6 KO), the 2012 Złoty medalista olimpijski z Irlandii, który jako amator był pięciokrotnym mistrzem świata AIBA.

28-letni Anderson, którym zarządza Fighter Locker Ryana Roacha, miał zadebiutować na początku tego roku w Meksyku. Pojawił się, ale jego przeciwnik uzyskał wynik pozytywny na COVID-19 i ich walka została odwołana.

Taylor często podróżuje z Irlandii do Connecticut, gdzie przygotowuje się do walk ze swoim trenerem, Ross Enamait.    

Anderson, związkowy pracownik Sheetmetal w lokalnym 17, był utytułowanym amatorem, który zdobył złoty medal na 2016 Turniej Rocky Marciano, a także dwukrotnie w Turnieju Nowej Anglii 2018-2019, i dwukrotnie wygrał Central Division w turnieju Golden Gloves Nowej Anglii oraz dwukrotnie wicemistrzostwo w ciągu swoich czterech lat (2016-2019) biegać. Brał również udział w trzech turniejach ogólnopolskich.

Anderson czerpał korzyści z bycia południową łapą, gdy był jego trenerem, Marc Gargaro, skontaktował się z Enamait w sprawie zapotrzebowania na leworęcznego partnera sparingowego dla Taylora. „Sparowałem z nią tylko raz,- powiedział Anderson, „Ale wierzę, że w najbliższej przyszłości będę miał więcej pracy z Katie na jej obozie treningowym. Poproszono mnie już o więcej sparingów.

"W pierścieniu, Katie jest cierpliwa, ostry, i szybko z jej kombinacjami. Nie marnuje też wszystkich ruchów. Jest bardzo twarda i agresywna. Poza ringiem, ona jest bardzo miła, zawsze uśmiechnięty podczas rozmowy, i hojny, przyzwoity człowiek ”.

Nie ma nic lepszego dla młodego boksera niż trening i sparing ze światowej klasy sportowcem, nawet jeśli jest to kobieta przeciwko mężczyźnie, doświadczenie w bezcenne.

Wierzę, że zdobycie doświadczenia z mistrzem świata pomogło mi nabrać pewności siebie. To zdecydowanie otworzyło mi umysł i oczy na próbowanie nowych rzeczy, takich jak różne ruchy i kombinacje, a także upewnić się, że moja obrona i praca nóg były na miejscu. Nauczyłem się, jak lepiej zmieniać tempo rzucanych przeze mnie kombinacji. Również, zdając sobie sprawę z tego, co robiła Katie podczas sparingu i po nim, zrozumienie jej mentalności, i daj mi znać i zobaczę, jak być najlepszym na świecie, pomoże mi dorosnąć jako bokser.

„To jest trochę inny sparing kobiety, ale, szczerze, pomogło mi to w pracy nad moim rzemiosłem w obszarach, które staram się ulepszyć. Nadal jestem gotowy, aby dawać i być dobrym, solidna praca i wysiłek. To poszerza mój umysł, Nadal mogłem wybierać, kiedy kopać mocne strzały, aby upewnić się, że nadal solidnie walczyłem dla niej, w przeciwieństwie do facetów, większość ciosów jest zadawanych mocno.

Menedżer OrtizaRyan Roach skomentował: „To wielka szansa dla Troya. Za każdym razem, gdy dzielisz pierścień z mistrzem świata, nawet sparing, to świetny sposób na podniesienie poziomu pewności siebie. Jak wielu wie, ten sport ma wiele poziomów i te możliwości są kluczowe w budowaniu wojownika. Jestem naprawdę dumny z Troya. Jego debiut został przesunięty w tył, ale on został na siłowni i pozostaje pewien, czekając na swój zastrzyk. Ma świetnego trenera i zespół w Nonantum Boxing. ”

Sparing Taylor mógł nie zatrzeć rozczarowania odwołaniem profesjonalnego debiutu Andersona; jednak, doświadczenie z pewnością uczyni go lepszym zawodnikiem.

„Walka z mistrzem świata była niesamowita,- zakończył Anderson. „Już sama możliwość wejścia na ring z mistrzynią świata Katie Taylor była niesamowita. Dosłownie, prowadzące do dnia sparingu, to wszystko, na czym mógłbym się skupić i o czym pomyśleć. Byłem bardzo zamknięty, ponieważ chciałem dać Katie Taylor dobrą robotę i pokazać jej, że skontaktowanie się z moim trenerem Markiem nie było błędem, a jego słowa o mnie były solidne. Widząc, jak Katie się porusza, kombinacje do rzucania, oraz na wybieraniu w obronie i wyborze, kiedy być agresywnym, a kiedy nie, jest niewytłumaczalne. To było naprawdę błogosławieństwo i na zawsze będę wdzięczny i wdzięczny za doświadczenie i możliwość sparingu z mistrzem świata, Katie Taylor ”

“There is a new wave of women’s boxing, led by Claressa Shields, Katie Taylor, Amanda Serrano and so many other rising female stars worldwide. The IBA plans to be in the forefront and we recently crowned our first woman world champion, strawweight Eva Guzman, of Venezuela. W 2019, we look forward to crowning many other women IBA world champions, in what the IBA is calling the Year of Women’s Boxing.”

Former IBA world champions during the past quarter-century include Hall-of-Famers Oscar de la Hoya, George Foreman, Roberto Duran i 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 i Antonio Tarver.

USA Boks Stowarzyszenie Absolwentów, klasa 2018 Inductee

Colorado Springs, Zakładka. (Grudzień 3, 2018) – Two-time Olympic gold medalist Claressa Shields not only is spearheading a new wave in women’s boxing, she has developed into a true role model for countless youths.

 

 

 

Shields will be inducted into the USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame this Friday night in Salt Lake City, along with Class of 2018 Członkowie Roy Jones Jr.. i, Andre Ward, as well as the late Emanuel Stewarti Tom Cleary.

 

 

 

The second annual USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame reception, held in conjunction with the 2018 USA Boxing Elite and Youth National Championships and Junior and Prep Open, Grudzień 2-8, will be held December 7, at the Radisson Hotel (215 S. Temple St.) w Salt Lake City, Utah.

 

 

 

“I feel honored,” Shields spoke about being inducted into the USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame,” I am only 23 years old and to be inducted into the USA Boxing Hall of Fame is a great honor, but also a shock to me. I believe I am worthy of any honor, but I know things take time, and I always thought I would put in the Hall of Fame at the age 40 lub 50. This is a big deal to me and I feel so honored. Just to have my name mentioned alongside names of greats like Andre Ward and Roy Jones just really motivates me. I feel privileged!”

 

 

 

The pride of Flint, Michigan, Shields has already successfully parlayed her amateur success to the professional ranks, in which she is 7-0 (2), and the reigning unified (IBF, WBA & WBC) mistrz świata wagi średniej.

 

 

 

Shields finished her amateur career with an incredible 77-1 (18 KO) rekord, highlighted by her Olympic gold-medal-performances in 2012 i 2016. She hasn’t lost in the ring since 2012, kiedy Savannah Marshall (Anglia) won on points, 14-8, at the World Championships in China.

 

 

 

“USA Boxing came into my life as a two-time Junior Olympic champion,” Claressa explained her USA Boxing relationship. “The help from USA Boxing was so important: just noticing me as a young athlete and knowing I would be a strong young woman to represent the USA in the future; spotkanie Julie Goldsticker, who was a blessing for me as she helped me with a lot as a teenager, and just having Coach Abdullah, trener Al Mitchell, i trener Gloria Peek teach me different styles and how to use all my attributes. USA Boxing blessed me with a lot of knowledge and life-long friendships with all my Olympic teammates and Olympic coaches. My favorite coach, Koroma, literally was with me the whole way through 2015-2016, helping me outside the ring with advice and inside the ring.”

 

 

 

Shields is one of the driving forces in women’s boxing today, carrying the torch handed off by American female boxing pioneers such as Christy Martin, Laila Ali and a few others.

 

 

 

“There is great change going on right now — mnie, Mikaela Mayer, Franchon Crews, Katie Taylor, Amanda Serrano and a few other women are carrying the torch for women’s boxing right now,” Shields explained. “Progress has been fast, every network has had a women’s fight on television this year, especially Showtime, on which I have boxed the main event four times. Women’s boxing can go far. I believe the day will come when we can be paid millions just like men.”

 

 

 

By opening doors and breaking down obstacles, Claressa has become a true role model for youngsters all over, in and out of boxing.

 

 

 

“It feels good to be a role model for them (females), and also for so many male boxers,” Shields noted. “Boxing is in a different era and I just want to make it easier for girls coming up, so when they turn pro, boxing will be closer to equality.”

 

 

 

“Claressa has one of the greatest stories in the history of amateur boxing,” powiedział: Chris tofflemire, USA Boxing Alumni Association Executive Director. “Her drive, commitment, talent, and character made her a USA Boxing and Olympic champion, leaving a legacy that will last for a very long time. She is a trailblazer for women’s boxing and has established her place as one of the most influential USA Boxing Alumni members of all time. The USA Boxing Alumni Association wants to thank her for inspiring the amateur boxing community and serving as a great role model for the next generation of champions.”

Despite all the honors and accolades, she has so richly received, Shields hasn’t forgotten where it all started, and she’s still actively involved in USA Boxing.

 

 

 

“I keep in contact with a lot of the female athletes and give them advice if they ask me,” Claressa added. “I also went to Colorado for five days to be a motivator and keynote speaker for the Next Olympic Hopeful. After my career is over in about 15 lat, I want to be a boxing trainer and lead the women’s team to more Olympic gold medals, if given the opportunity. I also want to be a school teacher and a counselor for youth.”

 

 

 

Tarcze, niestety, is unable to attend this Friday night’s Hall of Fame reception because she’s in deep training for her titles defense this Saturday evening on HBO, live from the StubHub Center in Carson, Kalifornia, przed Fenmke Hermans (9-1).

 

 

 

“Niestety,” Shields concluded, “I can’t be there but, if I was there, I would say: Thank you to USA Boxing for believing in me at the age of 16. It was an honor to represent America, not only once but two times in the Olympics! I thank Coach Menażka (Walsh) for making me dig deep, by having to deal with his Irish ways and jokes, also for changing the culture of USA Boxing. A special thank you to coach Kay, also, I can’t count on my hands how many days we trained at 1 przed południem, how many times I knocked on his room door and ran, how many times he has had to take my phone from me because I was crying or having a family problem. He is the coach I could tell everything to, and he also blessed me with his boxing knowledge and made me always feel secure in myself when he was in the corner. USA Boxing isn’t just staff – USA Boxing is family! Even though I’ve had a few words with Matthew Johnson and other staff, I thank them for being hard on me and making sure I handled my responsibilities. Love to all USA Boxing staff, I’m truly thankful.”

 

 

 

Claressa Shields is much more than world and Olympian champion, she’s a class act as well, exactly what’s so desperately needed today.

The 10-round bout will take place at the Parafia Rapides Coliseum na Grudzień 29, 2017, w Aleksandrii, LA. The only other female pro to fight for a major title this quickly is 2-time gold medalist Clarissa Shields.

Barrios is a winner of four Ringside World Amateur Titles to go along with her many national championships. Porter was a decorated amateur herself, winning three National PAL championships, US Golden Gloves, and was a US National Silver medalist. Both fighters are coming in with undefeated records.

I’m very grateful to the folks at the NABF for sanctioning this fight. Selina Barrios is going to be a tough test, but one I believe I can pass. The fans are going to see a great fight.”
“With Selina being the most avoided female fighter in boxing, I had to do my part on getting her ranked by the NABF,” said advisor Kerry Daigle. “It’s not going to be an easy road to the top. There’s a lot of good fighters out there with a lot of experience that she’s going to have to fight. That will be the case when Selina steps in the ring with Lisa Porter, who has a plethora of amateur experience. Ona, also is one of the most avoided fighters in the lightweight division. This will be a battle of two fighters who are putting everything on the line to advance their career to the next level.

Jessica McCaskill Gets Her Wish to Face Katie Taylor: Social Media Challenges Turn to Women’s Super Fight on December 13 w Londynie

Zostaw komentarz
Christmas comes a little early this year for hard-punching Warriors Boxing lightweight Jessica ‘CasKILLA’ McCaskill.

All year, she and manager/trainer Rick Ramos have been expressing their wish, via social media, to face Irish gold medalist turned professional world champion Katie Taylor.
Na Środa, Grudzień 13, they will get their wish, as Chicago-based McCaskill (5-1, 3 KO) will challenge Taylor (7-0, 4 KO) for her WBA Lightweight Championship at York Hall in London, Anglia, and live before a massive audience on Sky Sports.
“I’m relieved. I’ve been working toward this fight for a long time,” powiedział McCaskill, oceniane #2 in the world at 135 lbs and #1 in the United States in women’s boxing. “We have been training for this fight since my last fight because we knew it was coming and we’ve definitely bumped up the intensity.”
Before turning professional a year ago, the popular Taylor, from Bray, won lightweight gold at the 2012 London Olympics, as well as an impressive assortment of world and European amateur championships. Known as the Irish athlete of her entire generation, Taylor is regarded as a superstar in the UK because of her aggressive and crowd-pleasing style.
“I’ve never watched a full fight of hers,” professed McCaskill. “I’ve seen some highlights. I see mistakes she makes, but it’s not so much what I see in her. It’s what I see in all her opponents. They’ve all been scared of her. I am not. You won’t see any fear in me. Everybody else was terrified to engage her. They just showed up. I’ll be fighting to the last bell.”
Much of the credit for landing the fight must go to Ramos, who doggedly pursued Taylor and her promoter, Eddie Hearn of Matchroom Boxing, on social media.
“I felt like offended about comments Katie and Eddie made about how no one wants to fight her,” explained Ramos. “I remember thinking, ‘well, NO ONE called Jessica. We would love to fight Katie!’ That kind of started everything. Eddie Hearn finally did contact me via Instagram and things started getting real. I was happy that my social-media tactic worked!”
McCaskill, who also works full-time in Regulatory and Reporting at R.J. O’Brien & Associates investment bank in Chicago, says she’s not intimidated about stepping into Taylor’s home field for this fight. W rzeczywistości, she’s expecting a number of her fans to be there as well.
“It’s funny because of my job and my previous investment banking job, I have a lot of contacts and friends over there who are excited to show up for me. My company I work for has a branch that is three miles from the venue. I’ll be expecting a lot of fans there for me as well that night. It would be incredible to headline over there and to break her undefeated record and get my first world title in one night in front of them. Nie mogę się doczekać!”

Selina Barrios Spooks Her Opponent, Zarina Tsoloyeva Backs Out of Fight

Zostaw komentarz


RAYNE, LA (Listopad 2, 2017) – Two days after Halloween, unbeaten female sensation, lekki Selina “Aztec Królowa” Dzielnice (2-0, 1 KO), has spooked her opponent, Zarina Tsoloyeva (Pro Debiut) from Zhaksy, Kazachstan, as she backed out of their scheduled 4-round bout, set to take place today at The Rayne Civic Center in Louisiana. Tsoloyeva refused to step on the scale at yesterdays weigh-in.
Selina Barrios is one of the most avoided female fighters in the United States and now Kazakhstan. Ebony Jones from Alabama, Alpha Patricia Lopez from Mexico, a teraz Zarina Tsoloyeva from Kazakhstan, all signed to fight Selina but backed out to fight her at the last minute. Jones and Lopez were no shows, while Tsoloyeva who is from the distant land of Kazakhstan, showed up to the weigh-in, but declined to step on the scale.
“I was willing to fight Zarina Tsoloyeva, the decorated amateur from Kazakhstan, but she pulled out at the last minute, like my last two opponents.” said Selina Barrios from San Antonio. “It’s been very difficult getting opponents to fight me. I’ve always said, I don’t care who they put in front of me, I’ll fight anyone. I have that much confidence in my skills. I have no choice but to move on, but I’m respectfully sending a message to everyone in the lightweight and super-lightweight divisions, Ja nigdzie nie ide, eventually you will all have to fight me.”
Nothing will derail Selina as she stays positive and continues to work hard, looking for that opportunity to challenge the best the lightweight and super-lightweight divisions has to offer. Selina’s handlers must now move her to six and eight round bouts right away, to chip away and get to a championship fight as she gains more ring experience as a professional.
“Looking at all the top lightweights and super-lightweights, I predict Selina will fight for a world championship before her tenth fight,” said advisor Kerry Daigle. “Possibly by fight number seven or eight. We’re going to move her into six and eight rounders moving forward. I’m already in talks with the sanctioning bodies to get her ranked.”
“If no one wants to fight me, then I’m calling out all the name fighters in the division,” Selina Barrios continued. “Amanda Serrano, Mikaela Mayer, Jessica McCaskill and of course, Katie Taylor, I’m willing to fight you guys anytime, nigdzie. Tak jak powiedziałem, at some point, you will all have to fight me.”
