|
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.
De “Knockout Night at the D” serie, gepresenteerd door het D Las Vegas enCentrum van Las Vegas Events Center(DLVEC), wordt bevorderd door Roy Jones Jr. (RJJ) Boksen Promotions.
de april. 16th “Knockout Night at the D” event will air Zaterdag nacht, April 16 (8 p.m. PT / 11 p.m. EN), live op CBS Sports Network from under the neon lights at the DLVEC outdoor venue.
The broadcast team includes Jim “JR” Ross, Sean Wheelock en voormalig wereldkampioen Kevin “The Flushing Flash” Kelley. Joe Martinez is the ring announcer.
Claggett vs. Van Heerden is a crossroads fight for both boxers with critical consequences, especially for the winner who will use it as an invaluable springboard for his boxing career.
The 26-year-old Claggett (23-3-1, 16 KO), who is the reigning Canadian Professional Boxing Council and Canadian welterweight champion, is thrilled to be fighting in Las Vegas for the first time. “Het is een droom die uitkomt,” he explained. “I’ve trained in Las Vegas often but now it’s time to show what I can do there in a fight. A win will open many doors for me and could potentially lead to a path that will set up the rest of my boxing life. Onnodig te zeggen, I am focused and prepared for the opportunity.”
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!”
Undefeated Lancaster, California welterweight Neeco “Rooster” Macias (11-0, 4 KO) voldoet aan Limberth “Bliksem” Ponce, Jr. (10-2, 8 KO), of Rock Island, Illinois, in the 8-round co-feature. Unbeaten Baltimore welterweight prospect Malik “Alpinist” Hawkins(6-0, 5 KO) gezichten Errol Sidney (6-1-2, 2 KO), van New Orleans, in a 6-round bout to open the television broadcast.
The undercard also features promising Las Vegas-based prospects in four-round bouts: weltergewicht Jeremy “J Flash” Nichols (2-0, 2 KO), vedergewicht Sal Lopez (2-0) and junior featherweight Randy Moreno (1-0, 1 KO).

Chuy Gutierrez & Leon Spinks III: You will know my name!
Judah vs. Torres headlines “Knockout Night at the D”
Zee. 12 live on CBS Sports Network from DLVEC in Las Vegas
|
LAS VEGAS (Maart 3, 2016) – Rising star lightweight star Chuy “El Huracan” Gutierrez(14-0-1, 4 KO) and his March 12th tegenstander, Leon “The Third Generation” Spinks III(11-3-1, 7 KO), are both looking to make their own mark in their 8-round “Knockout Night at the D” co-feature. Gutierrez is seeking to expand his marquee on a national level, while Spinks attempts to shine on his own terms despite his spotlight catching last name.
Vijfvoudig, twee divisie wereldkampioen Zab “Super” Juda (42-9, 29 KO) neemtJosh “Pitbull” Torres (15-4-2, 7 KO), in the 10-round main event of the inaugural show of the new monthly pro boxing series, “Knockout Night at the D”, luchten (8 p.m. PT / 11 p.m. EN) live op CBS Sports Network from the Downtown Las Vegas Events Center (DLVEC).
Georganiseerd door het D Las Vegas and promoted 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.).
The 27-year-old Gutierrez (14-0-1, 4 KO), uitvechten van Las Vegas, is ready to make a name for himself and Mar. 12th is scheduled to be his coming out party on a national stage. He’s rapidly become a fan favorite in Las Vegas because of his exciting, aggressive style of fighting. Chuy’s ready to spread his wings, now being showcased fighting on national television, and expand his growing fan-base.
Born in the fertile boxing town of Sinaloa, Mexico, which produced Hall of Famer Julio Cesar Chavez, Sr., onder vele anderen, Gutierrez is making up for lost time. He was a baseball prospect who didn’t box until he was 21. “I played sports in high school, baseball was my first love, and I dreamed of becoming a big leaguer,” Gutierrez said. “Boxing found me. I was attending college at Southern Nevada and working, but the first day I walked into Johnny Tocco’s gym, I fell in love with boxing. I’ve watched so many greats train there and I learned a lot from them.”
“I have a lot of respect for Spinks, but I’m just fighting the man, not his family. His grandfather was world champion, but I’m not fighting his grandfather. I’m excited to be fighting him on CBS Sports Network.”
Spinks (11-3-1, 7 KO), who fights out of Huntington Beach, ZOALS, is not only the grandson of former world heavyweight champion and 1976 Olympisch gouden medaillewinnaar, “Neon” Leon Spinks, his great uncle is world light heavyweight and heavyweight champion, in addition to being a 1976 Olympisch gouden medaillewinnaar, Michael Spinks. 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 fights…real 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.”
