Keith “Dusøren” Hunter restitueret fra håndskade Klar til at møde topkonkurrenter

LAS VEGAS, NV (Maj 15, 2020) - Prince Ranch Boxing's ubesejret super let udfordrer, Keith “Dusøren” Jæger (12-0, 7 KOS), er kommet sig fuldt ud efter en håndskade, han fik i sin sidste kamp med Sanjarbek Rakhmanov (12-3-1, 6 KOS), en kamp på 10 runder, der havde overskriften på ShoBox tilbage i februar i år.


Jæger, en indfødt i Las Vegas, er ivrig efter at møde alle topudfordrer, når boksningen vender tilbage. Superletvægteren er i øjeblikket rangeret #13 af WBA, hvilket betyder, at hans skud i toppen af ​​divisionen snart kommer.

“Jeg er klar til at møde de bedste i divisionen, og jeg føler mig endnu bedre, da min hånd er helt helet med denne fri,” forklarede Hunter, som er klar til at bevise sig selv igen. “Jeg skulle kæmpe Shonjahon Ergashev og Malik Hawkins, så jeg vil gerne bekæmpe dem først, men ærligt, en kamp med nogen af ​​verdensmestrene er en udfordring, jeg er klar til nu. Jeg er villig og klar til at møde det bedste!”

Jæger, der ledes af Greg Hannley, bliver ved med at være klar, mens han afventer et telefonopkald om, at boksningen er tilbage.


“Keith Hunter er klar til sit skud mod de bedste i divisionen,” sagde lederen Greg Hannley, CEO for Prins Ranch Boksning. “Keith har besejret to kæmpere underskrevet af Mayweather Promotions i sine seneste tre på hinanden følgende kampe. Han får national opmærksomhed, og hans placering i WBA bringer ham tættere på et verdensmesterskab. Nu er det Keith Hunters tid.”

“Jeg ved bare, at jeg er begavet og ønsker at vinde en verdenstitel for at fremme min fars arv,” Hunter fortsatte. “Jeg er så fokuseret, Jeg vil bare bringe god underholdning til folk, der har brug for ting at lave, og hvis jeg kan kæmpe for en titel, det ville endda være bedre.”


Keith Hunter er forfremmet af Greg Cohen, grundlægger, og administrerende direktør for Greg Cohen Promotions.

LAS VEGAS – februar 19, 2020 – Ubesejret super let sensation og indfødt Las Vegas, Keith "The Bounty" Hunter (11-0, 7 KOS), taler om træningslejr forud for hans kommende opgør mod den ubesejrede kollega Malik Hawkins (18-0, 11KOS) i de vigtigste tilfælde af en ShoBox: Den nye generation på fredag, Februar 28 bor på SHOWTIME (10:45 p.m. ET / PT) fra Sam's Town Live i Las Vegas.

Billetter til Mayweather-kampagnerne Sin City Showdown starter ved $25 og kan købes på: https://mayweatherpromotions.com/events/.



Jæger, 27, vender tilbage til Sam's Town Live efter en imponerende 2019, hvor han vandt en afgørende 10-runders enstemmig afgørelse mod Cameron Krael og scorede en oprørt sejr over den tidligere amatørstandout Sanjarbek Rakhmanov. Han kommer fra en familie af kæmpere, han er den yngre bror til sværvægteren Michael Hunter, og hans far var en velrespekteret bokser, der sparrede med Mike Tyson. Hunter har tilbragt hele sin træningslejr på Prince Ranch Boxing Gym i Las Vegas, hvor han træner sammen med den ubesejrede weltervægter Blair Cobbs.



Her er, hvad Hunter havde at sige om sin seneste træningslejr og kommende kamp med Hawkins:



På sin modstander...



“Dette er min tid til at skinne. Hawkins er en god fighter, han er talentfuld, men han står i vejen for mig. Jeg kæmper ikke kun for mig selv, men for min familie. Hvis du ser på min rekord, Jeg har kæmpet mod nogle meget hårde fyre. Jeg ved, at jeg er kampklar til at tage min karriere til næste niveau. Hawkins er på vej ned. Jeg vil få folk til at respektere Jægernavnet igen



"Jeg har ikke noget dårligt at sige om Malik Hawkins. Han er en hårdtarbejdende fighter. Jeg føler bare, at jeg har det bedre. Dette er min tid, og ingen kan tage denne mulighed fra mig. Problemet for Hawkins er, Jeg har trænet hårdere end nogensinde for at vinde. Jeg er mere fokuseret end nogensinde."



På træningslejr...



"Jeg ønskede, at denne lejr skulle være meget specifik. Jeg får god sparring i Bones Adams' motionscenter, og der er kommet mange topprofessionelle der igennem som Shakur Stevenson, Manny Pacquiao, og mange andre. Jeg har set, hvordan de trænede, og jeg har brugt den samme arbejdsmoral og principper til denne lejr under opsyn af mine trænere.”



Om hans status som kandidat...



"Jeg er nu rangeret 13 af WBA, hvilket gør mig til en udfordrer. Jeg skal forbi Hawkins, så tro mig, når jeg fortæller dig, at jeg vil lade alt være i ringen. Jeg ser på denne kamp, ​​som om det er en verdenstitel. At tabe er ikke en mulighed."



Da han fik sin SHOWTIME-debut...



"Jeg er spændt på at skrive overskrifter ShoBox: Den nye generation. Det er en platform, der lancerer fighters karriere, og SHOWTIME har et fantastisk og professionelt produktionshold. Et mål fra begyndelsen var at vise mit talent frem på en stor scene som denne, nu er jeg her. Dette er en meget stor mulighed for mig, Jeg vil ikke lade det glide væk."



Hunter ledes af Greg Hannley fra Prince Ranch Boxing, rådgivet af den tidligere to-dobbelte verdensmester i sværvægt, Hasim Rahman, forfremmet af Greg Cohen, Grundlægger og administrerende direktør for Greg Cohen Promotions.

UNDEFEATED SUPER LIGHTWEIGHT MALIK HAWKINS TO FACE KEITH HUNTER FRIDAY, Februar 28 I MAIN VED SHOBOX: THE NEW GENERATION TRIPLE-HEADER

Top Mayweather Promotions Prospects Hawkins, Richardson Hitchins, and Kevin Newman II Featured in Separate Bouts Live on SHOWTIME® From Sam’s Town Live in Las Vegas



TICKETS ON SALE TOMORROW!



LAS VEGAS – January 30, 2020 – Ubesejret super letvægts-prospekt Malik Hawkins returns to the ring to make his ShoBox: Den nye generationseries debut as part of a three-fight telecast when he faces fellow undefeated Vegas native Keith Hunter in the main event that is scheduled for 10 rounds on Friday, Februar 28 bor på SHOWTIME (10:45 p.m. ET / PT) fra Sam's Town Live i Las Vegas.



Two other Mayweather Promotions’ top prospects will face tough challenges, som 2016 Olympian Richardson Hitchins (10-0, 5 KOS) and once-beaten Las Vegas native Kevin Newman II (11-1-1, 6 KOS) both return for their second ShoBox appearances fighting in separate bouts. Hitchins, the undefeated super lightweight prospect, will take on Rhode Island’s Nick DeLomba (16-2, 5KOS) i en 10-round Bout, while Newman will seek his fifth consecutive victory when he steps in the ring with undefeated Kalvin Henderson (12-0-1, 8 KOS) i en 10-round super mellemvægt Bout.


Tickets for the Mayweather Promotions’ Sin City Showdown go on sale Friday, Januar 31 på 12 p.m. PT, starter ved $25 and can be purchased by visiting: https://mayweatherpromotions.com/events/.



“As we kickstart another year, I’m confident that we will continue to exceed expectations and bring top tier events to the sports and entertainment world,” says Leonard Ellerbe, CEO for Mayweather Promotions. “Our first stop of the year is at our home venue for club shows and a stacked Friday night ShoBox kort. These prospects are looking to put on impressive performances to start their year off. They’re putting in the work to take their fight game to the next level, and on February 28 we will see them challenge themselves against tough opponents at Sam’s Town Live and live on SHOWTIME.”



Hawkins, (18-0, 11 KOS) known as “Ice Man” in the ring, fights out of Baltimore, Md., and is coming off the heels of two back-to-back knockout victories. His most recent came via fifth-round stoppage against Darwin Price on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING COUNTDOWN on the Davis vs. Gamboa undercard on December 28. The 24-year-old Hawkins is trained by the highly touted Upton Gym coaches’ trio of Calvin Ford, Kenny Price, and Russ Blakey. Hawkins turned professional in 2014 with a knockout victory, which foreshadowed what was to come from the young fighter. Som en amatør, Hawkins amassed an impressive 160-15 record while competing in the 2012 og 2013 National Championships and won a bronze medal in the 2012 Jr. OL. Best known for his gritty and powerful fighting style, Hawkins joined the Mayweather Promotions team in late 2019 with a knockout decision win over Al Rivera at Cannery Casino & Hotel.



“It feels great to headline my first ShoBox begivenhed,” says Hawkins. “This is something I wanted to do since I was a kid. A win in this fight and the exposure fighting on a platform like SHOWTIME only brings more recognition to my talent and skills and bigger and better opportunities. I have more than myself to fight for. I have the kids who look up to me at Upton Gym. I fight for them they’re my real motivation.



“I can’t say much about my opponent. I know he’s also undefeated. He is a durable opponent and he’s coming to fight, but if you watched my last fight you know I come in to take my opponents 0.”



Twenty-seven-year-old Keith Hunter (11-0, 7KO s) comes from a fighting background. He’s the younger brother of heavyweight contender Michael Hunter, and his father was a well-respected boxer who sparred with Mike Tyson for many years before his tragic death. Hunter didn’t have a long amateur career, electing to turn professional after just 28 slagsmål



“I feel confident coming into this fight,” said Hunter. “My last two bouts, I defeated Mayweather fighters and I’m confident with the insight I have. We’re both 6-feet tall, but he’s missing components as a fighter. He has trouble fighting on the outside. He is more comfortable on the inside. I feel I’m the better more skilled fighter going into the fight.



“Anytime I get to fight on a big stage like SHOWTIME, I invest a piece of my heart and soul, so hopefully my fans and anyone who watches my fight will see a genuine kid fighting for legacy and not money. This opportunity will help me connect with more people and I’m forever thankful for it.”



Hitchins (9-0, 5 KOS), fra Brooklyn, is a former two-time Golden Gloves champion who represented his parents’ home country of Haiti in the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympic Games. One of boxing’s top young prospects, Hitchins has sparred and trained with several world champions including Terence Crawford and stablemate Gervonta Davis. Just 21-years-old, Hitchins boasts incredible hand and foot speed and the boxing IQ of a veteran contender. Having fought eight out of his 10 professional fights in his hometown, Hitchins will travel to Las Vegas for a second time looking for a statement win in his follow-up ShoBoxudseende.



I’m hungrier than ever," sagde Hitchins. “I see my brother Tank winning and prospering and I feel that same energy around me when I’m training for hours in the gym and perfecting my craft. I’m made to be great and I have the right people around me who keep my focus, keep me training at the highest level, and push me outside my comfort zone to be victorious. That’s what will show on fight night when I’m inside the ring.”



“Nice” Nick DeLomba (16-2, 5KO s), fighting out of Cranston, RI, is coming off a five-fight win streak with three out of five wins by knockout. He’s best known for his slickness and elusiveness in the ring and looks to make a powerful statement in foreign territory as he makes his Las Vegas and ShoBox debuts next month.



“What a great opportunity this is to fight on SHOWTIME,” said DeLomba. “I’ve been fighting my way up to this point and now it’s about showing the world who I am and growing my brand. That’s what I plan on doing come fight night. I take every fight and lesson with me to the gym and train harder than the day before and push myself to really be the best fighter. I know I’m coming in as the underdog, but it’s only going to make me want the win more and to be that guy who gives Hitchins his first defeat.”.



Las Vegas’ own Kevin Newman (11-1, 6KO s) started boxing when he was nine-years old and built up an amateur record of 25-5 before turning pro in 2014. Impressed by Newman’s skills and technique in the ring as an amateur, Floyd Mayweather signed the rising super middleweight to his stable of fighters in the summer of 2014. Newman made his professional debut on the Mayweather vs. Maidana II undercard, where he fought to a draw against Azamat Umarzoda. Newman returns to ShoBox having avenged the only loss of his career against Mark Anthony Hernandez. Newman defeated Hernandez on November 1 at Sam’s Town Live, redeeming himself from their first matchup in 2017 on the Mayweather vs. McGregor undercard. Newman remains humble and hungry as he climbs the ranks in the super middleweight division.



“It’s always good to get that weight off your shoulders,” said Newman of his recent victory over Hernandez. “I work hard day in and day out to be the best me and I follow God’s plan. I understand that there’s more for me on my journey now and I’m past that and I’m looking to the future on February 28.



“I’ve seen Kalvin fight. There isn’t anything particular that stands out about him. I’ve been in the ring with top tier guys as an amateur and a professional and I have fought tougher opponents. I’m always the smarter opponent.



“Fighting on SHOWTIME does a lot for me. It’s not about the win, it’s about how jeg vinder. I’m going to put on another dominant performance, something that will set me apart from the rest, and I’m going to take advantage of every opportunity that continues to come my way.



Originally from Fayetteville, Ark., but fighting out of Fort Worth, Tx., Henderson (12-0-1, 8 KO s) doesn’t have a typical background for a professional fighter. He’s a University of Arkansas alumni who pursued a career in music when he was awarded a scholarship as a percussionist. He never lost sight of boxing since he was first introduced at 15 years old and quickly after graduating in 2012, he shifted his focus back to boxing. Henderson has quickly established himself as one of the faster rising super middleweights in the division and welcomes the challenge to continue his pursuit in becoming a world class boxer.



“Fighting in other people’s backyard is not a big deal,” says Henderson. “There’s no pressure on me to do anything. I take care of business and I go home. I will say that it brings a different motivating factor. It forces me to train harder and it affects my game plan because we can’t leave the rounds too close.



“I’m excited to get in the ring and execute my game plan in front of wide audience. I want to show the world what me and my team already know. I make it hot in the ring. That’s why they call me, ‘Hot Sauce’.”
