LAS VEGAS (April 5, 2016) – de april 16th10-round main event between Canadian welterweight Steve “De draak” Claggett and South Africa-native Chris “De Hitte” Van Heerden embodies the “Knockout Night at the D” philosophy in terms of featuring action fighters in evenly matched, entertaining bouts.

VIDEO PROMO LINK:
Claggett, as well as Van Heerden, are known as high-action fighters, throwing punches in bunches, and something eventually has to give. Van Heerden (23-1-1, 12 KO), fighting out of Santa Monica (ZOALS), is a former International Boxing Organization (IBO) en de International Boxing Federation (IBF) weltergewicht kampioen.
Van Heerden is a rangy, quick and active fighter,” Claggett said. “I have an action style but, for many years, I was strictly a pressure fighter with a good body shot. Tegenwoordig, hoewel, I have a couple of more tricks up my sleeve. His heart and durability have been shown and is to be respected. This match-up is sure to produce some good exchanges. I expect this to be a high-action fight between two hungry fighters with him coming off a loss (to unbeaten rising star Errol Spence Jr. last September) and me coming off more than one fight falling through. This is a great match up. He is similar to the style of (Konstantin)Ponomarev (who Claggett lost an 8-round decision to last year) with range and movement. And that motivates me!”

And young Leon, die draaide 28 this past Valentine’s Day, is also the nephew of former 2-division world champion Cory Spinks.
His familiar last name in boxing has been a blessing, albeit one that has also put a lot of pressure on Leon. “Things have always been that way (druk) because I’m named after my grandfather, ‘Pops,'” Leon III explained. “From the beginning of my pro career, I was put in tough fights because of my name, just tough fightsreal wars.
I got to 8-0 but that hurt me because I couldn’t get good fights. But I’ve always really been my own man. This is a very, zeer, very big event for me, my family will be in the house supporting me.

Clark is een NJCAA-worstelkampioen en een Golden Gloves-bokskampioen die zijn naam snel naar de top van verschillende MMA-ranglijsten voor licht-zwaargewicht prospects heeft zien stijgen. De afgestudeerde Lincoln High School heeft meer dan de helft van zijn carrièreoverwinningen behaald in de RFA Octagon en zal op zoek zijn naar de grootste overwinning van zijn carrière in het hoofdevenement van RFA. 37.
“Het is een eer om te vechten voor de inaugurele RFA licht-zwaargewicht titel voor het publiek van mijn geboorteplaats in Sioux Falls,” verklaarde Clark. “De eerste RFA-kampioen licht-zwaargewicht worden zal nog meer voor me betekenen, aangezien ik het kan doen tegen zo'n getalenteerde en taaie tegenstander.”

Larson maakt zijn vierde optreden voor de RFA in zijn geboorteplaats Sioux Falls tegen de in Colorado geboren Brian Camozzi. (5-2). Larson, die de ontvanger is geweest van drie van de luidste ovaties in de geschiedenis van RFA, zal opnieuw de wandeling maken naar de RFA Octagon in het bijzijn van zijn bewonderende thuisstadfans. Hij zal Camozzi onder ogen zien, wie is de jongere broer van UFC-ster Chris Camozzi. De jongere Camozzi-broer maakte een enorm statement tijdens zijn RFA-debuut in januari.

Zab Judah fighting to become 6-time world champion

Josh Torres looking for upset to
Make name for himself & NM boxers
“Knockout Night at the D”, Zee. 12 at DLVEC in Las Vegas
Live on CBS Sports Network
LAS VEGAS (Maart 1, 2016) – Future Hall of Fame candidate Zab “Super” Juda is fighting for his legacy. His road back to the top starts Zaterdag nacht,Maart 12, against upset-minded Josh “Pitbull” Torres, in the 10-round main event kicking off the new monthly pro boxing series, “Knockout Night at the D”, uitgezonden live (8 p.m. PT / 11 p.m. EN) op CBS Sports Network live from the Downtown Las Vegas Events Center (DLVEC).
Georganiseerd door het D Las Vegas en Centrum van Las Vegas Events Center, along with Neon Star Media and Roy Englebrecht Promotions, de “Knockout Night at the D” serie’ eerste manifestatie Zee. 12 will take place inside the DLVEC’s 20,000-square-foot tent, located in the heart of the downtown Las Vegas casino district, one block away from the world famous Fremont Street (200 S. 3rd St.).
Juda (42-9, 29 KO), uitvechten van Las Vegas, has been a professional boxer for nearly 20 jaar. The southpaw has defeated seven world champions during his outstanding career: Junior Witter, Terron Millet, DeMarcus Corley, Raphael Pineda, Corey Spinks, Joshua Clottey en(interim champ) Lucas Matthysse. The Brooklyn native has an outstanding 11-8 (9 KO) record in world title fights.
Nu, hoewel, his past is in the rearview mirror and Judah’s on a mission to capture his sixth world title. That’s what drives the 38-year-old originally from Brooklyn. “I’m very happy to be headlining the first show of the ‘Knockout Night at the D’ serie,” Judah said. “I’m always comfortable and happy in the squared ring. I enjoy the sport of boxing and have one more goalto be six-time world champion of the world!”
Due to a variety of reasons, Judah has been out of action for two years, but that doesn’t necessarily mean he hasn’t been ready to rock in the ring. “Ik ben erg opgewonden om terug in de ring,” Judah remarked. “I helped Floyd (Mayweather) get ready for (Manny)Pacquiao and last May came out of that camp in great shape. I’ve been ready to fight since then.
I’ve studied him (Torres) and he’s a hungry, young guy with a great opportunity in front of him. We aren’t overlooking him.
The 24-year-old Torres (15-4-2, 7 KO) may not have the same name recognition as many of Judah’s past opponents, but the determined prospect from Albuquerque, NM has nothing to lose and everything to gain fighting Judah.
I believe this fight can be life changing, not only for me, but also for upcoming New Mexico fighters,” Torres commented. “Boxing doesn’t get a lot of attention in my state.
Torres is a protégé of the late 5-time world championJohnny Tapia. His brother-in-law, Chris Chavez, now trains Torres, who has been sparring with fellow New Mexican and former world junior middleweight champion, Austin Trout, to prepare for the left-handed Judah.
Torres is also a professional barber who’d like to clip Judah, bij wijze van spreken. “I haven’t had a promoter or manager,” he explained the need for him to be a barber as well as a pro boxer. “I’ve always had to work to pay bills. It’s just had to be that way in my boxing career.
