Kevin Dever Sports Management ishara Undefeated Cuba mwanga Heavyweight Luis Garcia

Acha maoni
(L-R – Kevin Ushuru, Luis Garcia na Patrick Brown)
PEEKSKILL, N.Y.. (Desemba 1, 2015) – Kevin Dever Sports Management imetangaza kusaini undefeated Cuba mwanga Heavyweight matarajio Luis “Simba” Garcia kwa kipekee usimamizi mkataba.
Karibu miaka minane iliyopita,Garcia (12-0, 9 Kos) walijiondoa kutoka Cuba na Mexico na bondia wenzake Alexei Acosta. Garcia (12-0, 9 Kos), ambao makazi katika Cork, Ireland, made his professional debut in 2008. He now lives in Peekskill, New York.
“Ilikuwa ni mabadiliko makubwa wakati mimi wakiongozwa na Ireland kuliko ilivyokuwa wiki sita iliyopita wakati mimi kuhamia hapa,” 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 hana kupigana katika karibu miaka minne kutokana na masuala ya awali usimamizi, lakini kurudi kwake imepangwa ni Jumamosi hii usiku, Desemba 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 Desemba 30, 2011 katika Cabazon, California.
“Haikuwa uamuzi wangu si kupambana kipindi cha miaka minne,” Garcia added. “Something happened with my now former manager and promoter. I trained all the time, sparred mengi, 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 miaka. 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.
“America inatoa fursa nzuri kwangu, bora kuliko England au Ireland, and I’m going to finish my boxing career here. I’m fighting December 5th 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.”
Garcia mapambano mawili kabla ya mwisho wake dhidi ya Johnson walikuwa kuvutia 2010 knockouts kiufundi ya bingwa wa zamani wa dunia Byron Mitchell (28-6-1) na Jorge Rodriguez Olivera (19-1), mtiririko, katika raundi ya pili na ya sita.
“Mimi kushoto ndondi na ladha mbaya katika kinywa changu lakini mimi nilikuwa kutafuta kupata nyuma katika ndondi,” alisema Kevin Ushuru, ambao ushirikiano itaweza Garcia kwa 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. Mimi uaminifu kufikiri kwamba, mara moja yeye ana baadhi ya mapambano nzuri chini ya ukanda wake, yeye itabidi kuwa mgombea juu katika mwanga Heavyweight mgawanyiko. Luis Garcia ni mpiganaji bora nimekuwa milele kazi na.”
Garcia, Junior michuano ya Dunia medali ya dhahabu, walijiondoa kwa sababu alikuwa disillusioned baada ya kunyimwa doa kwenye 2008 Cuba Timu ya Olimpiki, licha ya yeye kuwashinda baadaye Olimpiki medali ya fedha Emelio Correa, Jr. in the Cuban Olympic Qualifier. Correa is the son of 1972 Bingwa wa Olimpiki Emelio Correa, Sr., ambaye alikuwa bado kushiriki katika Cuba Amateur Boxing wakati mtoto wake alichaguliwa juu ya Garcia kuiwakilisha Cuba katika 2008 Olimpiki. Correa lost in the championship final to James DeGale, Brit ambaye kwa sasa ni International Boxing Federation (IBF) super middleweight titlist.
Si ya kawaida ya ulinzi na moja Cuba bondia, Garcia inajulikana kama puncher crisp kwamba wenyeji wengi waliamini alikuwa na zaidi suala la mafanikio ya mabondia yoyote Cuba ambao wameweza walijiondoa, outside of Guillermo Rigondeaux na Yuriorkis Gamboa, ambao wote wamekuwa nyingi wakati dunia mabingwa kama wataalamu.
Garcia ni kufanya kazi nje ya Kuwa wa kwanza Boxing katika Peekskill na Westchester Boxing Club katika White Plains (NY), ambapo yeye ni mafunzo na Nick “Knuckles” Delury na msaidizi wake, dunia wa zamani cheo mpinzani Larry Barnes (44-3, 17 Kos). A former No. 1 nafasi welterweight mgombea katika ulimwengu, Barnes’ hasara tatu tu kama pro walikuwa mabingwa wa dunia Felix “Tito” Trinidad, Sauli Mamby na Luis Ramon “Yuri Boy” Chuo hicho.
“Yeye ni mtoto mkubwa, smart sana na heshima,” Delury maoni. “Kuna baadhi ya kutu na kuwa mbali miaka minne, lakini Luis anaishi nzuri, healthy lifestyle and he hasn’t suffered any damage in the ring. Yeye 28, elimu, 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.”
