I am excited to be able to have our first world championship boxing match on our ‘New England’s 3’ evento de boxeo,” promoter Jose Rivera commented. “It’s special because it’s a women’s World Heavyweight title fight with veterans like Sonya and Laura, who also have some hostilities towards one another.

I heard Jose was promoting shows in Worcester, so I called to say I’d like to fight for a world title on one of his cards. I think he saw me fight before and he quickly agreed.
This is still a make-dominates sport. I tell young girls to box as a side job. I have two Master’s Degrees and I’m a full-time teacher in New York. Boxing is my hobby. Very few women can make enough money boxing to make a good living. I don’t know if it’s because I was born in Greece and boxing is in my blood, but I love this sport and that’s what keeps me going. I guess I was born to fight. I enjoy getting in the ring. I’ve gotten a lot from boxing and now I’m giving back to amateurs in New York City as president of a youth organization.
Lamonakis; is a former International Boxing Organization World and New York State female heavyweight champion. Her opponent, Ramsey (10-7, KOs), as a two-time world title challenger is hoping the third time is the charm for her. They have history together and this fight nearly happened a few years ago.
I beat her daughter (Alysia Williams-Stevenson) in my second pro fight,” Lamonakis explained. “She said she’s see me and now, seven years later, we’re fighting. She’s a little older than me and I needed more fights before I fought her. We were supposed to fight a few years ago in Aruba but a hurricane cancelled the show.

Budding star Irvin Gonzalez Starting to make waves in Super featherweight division

PARA PUBLICACION INMEDIATA
“El futuro de Nueva Inglaterra 3” 10mo de junio de en Worcester, Massachusetts

WORCESTER, Masa. (Mayo 24, 2017) – New England’s top prospect with 10 pro fights of less, undefeated hometown favorite Irvin González, is on a fast track going into his June 10º headline fight in the third installment of the “Futuro de Nueva Inglaterra” serie, en el DCU Center (Sala de exhibición) en Worcester, Massachusetts.

“El futuro de Nueva Inglaterra 3” es presentado por Rivera Promotions Entertainment (RPE), propiedad y operado por jubilados tres veces, dos divisiones campeón del mundo José Antonio Rivera y su hijo, Anthonee (A. J.) Rivera.
The 21-year-old Gonzalez (6-0, 6 KOs) adquiere Raul Lopez (10-2-1, 5 KOs), de Bronx (Nueva York), in an eight-round main event for the vacant Universal Boxing Federation (UBF) All-American super featherweight championship.
Pro boxing returns to the DCU Center for the first time en 11 año, irónicamente, when promoter Jose Antonio Rivera defeated Alejandro Garcia, por decisión unánime de 12 asaltos, de la Asociación Mundial de Boxeo (AMB) Título mundial súper welter.
I am excited to watch Irvin’s boxing career flourish,” promoter Jose Rivera remarked. “He has all the tools to become a world champion. Fighting for the UBF championship will be the first of many and I am glad that we are able to give him this opportunity. I see big things for Irvin and I hope fans come out Sábado noche, Junio 10º, to support him and the other local boxers.”.
“Esta es una gran oportunidad para mí,” González dijo. “I’m blessed to be fighting in Worcester for my first title. It’s not a big title but it’s like taking baby steps to a world title. Since I started boxing at the Boys & Girls club, I always wanted to be like Jose, a three-time world champion. Ahora, it’s my turn, and I’m fighting again in my city.
Gonzalez has a perfect pro record: six rights, six wins by knockout. Sin embargo, he’s only had fought a grand total of eight rounds, y junio 10º he’s in a scheduled eight-round match. The well-spoken youngster isn’t concerned with the step up in rounds and opposition.
I’ve been asked about that by a lot of media, trainers and other fighters,” él explicó. “I’ve always trained like it’s for a world title fight, 12 rondas, so I’m not worried about going into deep water. I’m in magnificent shape, three weeks before the fight, and even in the amateurs I’ve always gotten stronger as the fight went along. In sparring, I get stronger, so going eight isn’t a problem for me.
I don’t really know much about my opponent. He won a few national titles but hasn’t fought too often. I’ll see what he brings into the ring and then adjust. I know I’m taller.
Gonzalez learned a lot when he was a sparring partner for Guillermo Rigondeaux in Florida that was supposed to be a six-week training camp that ended after three weeks due to Rigondeauxfight being cancelled.
I learned a lot about different training methods that I now use,” Irvin continued. “His techniques are phenomenal. I was around a world champion, two-time Olympic gold medalist and I saw his work ethic. After all he’s accomplished, he still has a great work ethic, and I learned from him that a fighter need continue working like he does until the day it’s all over. It’s not all about money, it’s having fun every day, doing what we love.
