Iceman John Scully’s 6th Official Amateur Boxing Reunion

Залишити коментар

Субота, Березня 18, 2017
12:00 Полудень (until around 3 вечора)
@ Monique’s Lounge (ака 108 Lounge)
181 East 108th Street
East Harlem, Нью-Йорк
10029
I am proud to officially announce my 6th Official Amateur Boxing Reunion that will take place on March 18 at Monique’s Lounge in Harlem, Нью-Йорк. I am expecting by far the largest turn out of any of the previous 5 reunions which were held twice at Rival Boxing in Las Vegas, once at Jimmy’s Corner in Manhattan and once each at Connecticut’s Mohegan Sun and Foxwoods Casinos.
Of the over 100 boxers attending this far, among them I expect the likes of 1988 Срібний призер Олімпійських ігор Riddick Big Daddy Bowe, NYC Golden Gloves Champ “Poison” Молодший Джонс, 1984 Olympic champ Відзначити Breland, 1974 National Junior Olympic champ Марлон Старлінг, 1996 USA Olympic team captain Лоуренс Клей-Бей і 1988 National Golden Gloves Champion Mark “Занадто Sharp” Джонсон.
At my past reunions, including the most recent one held at the Rival Boxing Store in Las Vegas on Листопад 18, we’ve had the likes of Roy Jones Jr., Alex “Bronx бомбардувального” Рамос, 1992 Olympian Montell Griffin, former three time world champions Mike McCallum and Iran Barkley, і “The Fighter” and Irish Micky Ward in attendance.
Among the most special of moments at my reunions, we had Mike McCallum and Alex Ramos, who met each other in the semi-finals of the 1980 NYC Golden Gloves, reconnect in Las Vegas in late 2014, we had Luis Ortiz and Lawrence Clay-Bey, who were brought together in 2015 at Foxwoods after not only not seeing each other in 38 YEARS but after not even knowing they fought against each other in 1977 until just a few days before they reunited and in NYC over the summer of 2015 we had 1984 New York City Golden Gloves 156 pound champion and runner up Dennis “The Magician” Milton and Jesse Lanton connect once again.
Any media who wish to attend the event in Harlem, New York on March 18 are more than welcome to be a part of the festivities.

Машантукет, Коннектикут (Липня 19, 2016) — Connecticut may not have equal status with New York City or Las Vegas in terms of being a fight capital, but the Nutmeg State has produced five Hall-of-Famers with Foxwoods Resort Casino, located in Mashantucket, Коннектикут, hosting many of the sport’s greatest fighters and fights over the past two decades.
The tradition continues on Четвер, Липня 21, as rising middleweight contender Sergiy “The Technician” Дерев'янченко (8-0, 6 КО) faces former world champion Am “Король” Сулейман (44-13, 18 КО) в 10-раундовому головною подією Прем'єр Бокс чемпіонів на ESPN & ESPN.
Телевізійний охоплення починається 8 p.m. І/5 p.m. PT, and features a 10-round middleweight clash between powerful Ievgen Khytrov (13-0, 11 КО) and California’s Пол Мендес (19-2-2, 9 КО).
Connecticut’s all-time greatest boxer is the late Віллі “Will ‘o the Wisp” Pep (229-11-1, 65 КО), who was born in Middletown and lived in Rocky Hill. Pep, who fought professionally between 1940 і 1966, was a two-time world featherweight champion who had an epic rivalry with Сенді Садлер.
Other Hall-of-Famers from Connecticut are world heavyweight champion (1926-28)Gene “The Fighting Marine” Tunney (65-1-1, 48 КО), of Greenwich, who defeated the legendary Джек Демпсі двічі; Ukrainian-born world featherweight (1925) вазі Луїс “Дитина” Kaplan (108-22-12, 72 КО), from Meriden; world light heavyweight champion (1933) “Slapsie” Максі Розенблюм (222-42-31, 2 Північна Кароліна, 19 КО), of Leonard Bridge; world light heavyweight titleholder (1926-27) Роз'єм “Bright Eyes” Delaney (73-11-2, 43 КО), who was born in Canada but lived in Bridgeport.
Over the year, many other Connecticut fighters have made an impact on the sport including Hartford’s NBA featherweight champion Battling Battalino (57-26-3, 26 КО), who was the first world champion to lose his title on the scale, Hartford’s two-time world welterweight titlist Marlon “Magic Man” Starling (45-6-12, 27 КО), Norwalk’s WBA junior middleweight champion “Tremendous” Travis Simms (28-1, 21 КО), New Haven’s three-time world light heavyweight champion “Поганий” Чед Доусон (33-4, 18 КО) and world welterweight contender Gaspar “El Indio” Ortega (131-29-6, 69 КО), Stamford’s world No. 1-ranked welterweight Chico Vejar (92-20-4, 43 КО), and Bloomfield’s 1996 Olympic Team USA captain Лоуренс Клей-Бей (21-3-1, 16 КО).
The No. 1 Foxwoods fight of all-time, held on April 16, 2011, was also promoted by DiBella Entertainment, and was selected as the 2011 Ring Magazine and BWAA Fight of the Year. Defending champion Андре Берто (27-0) і претендентом Віктор Ортіс (28-2-2) battled for 12 раундів, each getting dropped twice, with Ortiz winning a hard-fought decision (114-111, 114-112, 115-110) for the WBC welterweight title.
A close second place is the 2003 BWAA Fight of the Year, in which future Hall-of-FamerДжеймс Тоні (65-4-2) won a 12-round decision over reigning IBF cruiserweight champion Василь Жиров. The action started days earlier at the pre-fight press conference when a skirmish erupted as tables were overturned and glasses thrown. The animosity continued between the two fighters and their respective camps right up to the final bell. Previously undefeated, Жиров (31-0) started fast but faded, getting decked in the final round.
В 2004, New England favorite Скотт “The Sandman” Pemberton, hailing from nearby New Bedford, Массачусетс, was involved in a great 12ї круглий, come-from-behind knockout of always-tough Omar Sheika in a rematch of a previous draw, for a regional super middleweight title.
Two other N.E. fan favorites who fought regularly at Foxwoods were multiple-time world champion Вінні-Пас (Pazienza during his boxing career), борються Кренстон, Род-Айленд, and New Bedford’s all-action “Sucra” Ray Oliveira. Paz had a 13-3 record at Foxwoods, виділено його 1998 decision over Glenwood Brown and his 50їcareer win in his retirement fight against Tocker Pudwill в 2004. Oliveira was only 6-7-1 fighting at Foxwoods, but he faced nothing but iron and he did defeat a world champion, Vince Phillips, у їх 2000 non-title fight that produced the second-most total punches (2,989) recorded at that time.
Brazilian boxing fans always turned out in force when countryman Аселіно “Приклад” Фрейтас fought at Foxwoods, primarily because of the large Brazilian community in Connecticut. Freitas fought there four times, all in lightweight world title fights, перемігшиЗахір Рахім і Artur Grigorian і програвши Juan Diaz і Дієго Корралес.
Other great fights at Foxwoods include future world middleweight champion Енді Ліcoming back from the brink of possibly getting knocked out to stop Крейг МакЮен в 10ї раунд їх 2011 боротьба, Карл Фроч‘s dramatic late surge in 2009 to knock outДжермейн Тейлор (who was well ahead on the scorecards) в 12ї round for the WBC super middleweight championship, Пернелл Уїтакер taking a close decision fromAndrey Pestryaev (115-113, 115-112, і 114-113) у їх 1997 WBA eliminator (later ruled a No Decision due to Whitaker’s failed drug test), і Айк Квортейovercoming two knockdowns to successfully defend his WBA welterweight title versusJose Luis Lopez в 1997 (Quartey was originally awarded a win by majority decision, but a scoring error was discovered and the fight was ruled a majority draw).
Two of the greatest boxers in modern boxing history, Флойд Мейвезер, Молодший. і Рой Джонс, Молодший, both fought at Foxwoods in 1998. У його 15ї pro fight, Mayweather registered a third-round technical knockout of Miguel Melo, while Jones successfully defended his WBC/WBA light heavyweight titles with a 10ї-раунді технічним нокаутом з Otis Grant.
