(L-R – Kevin Adidy, Luis Garcia sy Patrick Brown)
Peekskill, N.Y.. (Desambra 1, 2015) – Kevin Dever Sports Management dia nanambara ny fanaovan-tsonia ny Cuban Tsy Mety Resy mazava lanja mavesatra fanantenana Luis “Ny Liona” Garcia ny iray irery pitantanana fifanarahana.
Efa ho valo taona lasa izay,Garcia (12-0, 9 Kos) NIALA tamin'ny Kiobà ho any Meksika amin'ny mpiara-mpanao ady totohondry Alexei Acosta. Garcia (12-0, 9 Kos), izay nanorim-ponenana tany Cork, Irlandy, made his professional debut in 2008. He now lives in Peekskill, New York.
“Io no fiovana lehibe kokoa, rehefa nifindra tany Irlandy aho noho ny tamin'ny iray volana sy tapany lasa izay, rehefa nifindra eto,” the 28-year-old Garcia explained. “It was a lot harder in Ireland because I didn’t speak a word of English. I learned English from the street, watching TV and reading. It’s not a big change for me to move around because I traveled all over the world when I was a member of the Cuban National Team.”
Garcia tsy niady tao efa ho efa-taona noho ny teo aloha pitantanana olana, fa ny voalahatra hiverina no Sabotsy ity alina, Desambra 5, against an opponent to be determined in a six-round bout at Barclays Center in Brooklyn. His last fight was a win by eight-round unanimous decision over previously undefeated (12-0) Alexander Johnson tamin'ny Desambra 30, 2011 in Cabazon, California.
“Tsy ny fanapahan-kevitro tsy mba hiady ny lasa efa-taona,” Garcia added. “Something happened with my now former manager and promoter. I trained all the time, sparred be dia be, and did as much as I could do in the gym. I still had a contract until it expired. I’ve known Kevin for 2-3 taona. He asked me why I wasn’t fighting and I told him everything. He said to call him when my contract expired because he wanted to manage me and that’s what I did.
“Amerika manome ahy fahafahana tsara, tsara kokoa noho Angletera na Irlandy, and I’m going to finish my boxing career here. I’m fighting December 5faha- and taking things step by step. I’m not going to rush. There are a lot of great fighters in the light heavyweight division and I hope to be in the mix next year.”
Ny roa Garcia talohan'ny ady ny farany an'i Johnson dia miavaka 2010 knockouts ara-teknika teo aloha tompon-daka eran- Byron Mitchell (28-6-1) ary Jorge Rodriguez Olivera (19-1), tsirairay, ao amin'ny fihodinana faharoa sy fahenina.
“Navelako ady totohondry miaraka amin'ny ratsy tsiro teo am-bavako, fa nijery aho mba hiverina ho ady totohondry,” nanao hoe: Kevin Adidy, izay miara-mitantana Garcia amin'ny Patrick Brown. “I knew him from Ireland and I always wanted to manage this kid. He called to tell me his contract had expired and we worked out a deal that brought him here to live in New York.
“I honestly don’t see any rust watching him spar. I know sparring isn’t fighting but everybody in the gym stops to watch him workout. Amim-pahatsorana aho mihevitra fa, indray mandeha tsara izy, manana ady eo ambany fehikibo, tiany hahatongavana ho ambony ka hiady ao amin'ny mazava lanja mavesatra fisarahana. Luis Garcia no mpiady tsara indrindra hatramin'izay aho Niara-niasa tamin'i.”
Garcia, ny World Junior Championship nahazo medaly volamena, NIALA satria Diso fanantenana izy rehefa avy nandà ny toerana eo amin'ny 2008 Kiobàna Olaimpika Team, na dia eo aza izy amin'ny farany nandresy nahazo medaly volafotsy Olaimpika Emelio Correa, Jr. in the Cuban Olympic Qualifier. Correa is the son of 1972 Olaimpika tompon-daka Emelio Correa, Sr., izay mbola mandray anjara amin'ny ady totohondry Kiobàna matihanina ny zanany lahy rehefa voafidy hisolo tena ny Garcia Kiobà ao amin'ny 2008 Lalao Olaimpika. Correa lost in the championship final to James DeGale, ny Brit izay ankehitriny dia ny Federasiona iraisam-pirenena Ady Totohondry (IBF) Super middleweight titlist.
Tsy iray mahazatra Kiobàna voalohany fiarovan-mpanao ady totohondry, Garcia dia fantatra ho toy ny miavaka puncher fa maro ny nino Insiders nanana ambony kokoa noho ny Kiobàna mpanao ady totohondry, izay efa NIALA, outside of Guillermo Rigondeaux ary Yuriorkis Gambony, izay samy efa maro-fotoana izao tontolo izao tompon-daka toy ny matihanina.
Garcia dia miasa avy amin'ny ho Voalohany Ady Totohondry in Peekskill sy Westchester Ady Totohondry Club in White Plains (NY), izay no nampiofana ny Nick “Knuckles” Delury sy ny mpanampy, izao tontolo izao teo aloha Title nihantsy Larry Barnes (44-3, 17 Kos). A former No. 1 laharana welterweight ka hiady eto amin'izao tontolo izao, Barnes’ afa-tsy telo fatiantoka ho toy ny mpanohana no ho tompon-daka eran- Felix “Tito” Trinidad, Saoly Mamby ary Luis Ramon “Yuri Boy” Campus.
“Izy no lehibe zanak'osy, tena marani-tsaina sy fanajana,” Delury hevitra. “Misy ny sasany harafesina tsy ho eny efa-taona, fa Luis velona tsara, healthy lifestyle and he hasn’t suffered any damage in the ring. Izy 28, nahita fianarana, and a true gentleman. It’s been a pleasure working with him. Luis is a gifted boxer. He’s extremely exciting to watch and has a perfect blend of offense and defense.”
