The pay-per-view undercard will also see former world champion Rau'shee Warren taking on France’s Nordine Oubaali for the vacant WBC Bantamweight World Championship in a rematch of their 2012 Olympic match up that was edged by Oubaali. In the opening bout of the four-fight PPV telecast, invicto JhackTepora vai assumir o ex-campeão do mundo Hugo Ruiz in a 12-round featherweight clash.

No evento principal, Senator Manny “PAC Man” Pacquiao, boxing’s only eight-division world champion, will end his two-year hiatus from a U.S. boxing ring when he returns to Las Vegas to defend his World Boxing Association Welterweight World Title against former four-division world champion and must-see attraction Adrien “O Problema” Broner.

Os ingressos para o evento, which is promoted by MP Promotions, Mayweather Promotions and TGB Promotions in association with About Billions Promotions, are on sale now and start at $100, não incluindo encargos de serviço aplicáveis, and can be purchased online through AXS.com, cobrar pelo telefone 866-740-7711 or in person at any MGM Resorts International box office.

“Not only will the fans witness a tremendous main event, they will get to enjoy three action-packed match-ups that will add another level to the pay-per-view portion of the card,” disse Leonard Ellerbe, CEO of Mayweather Promotions. “Both Jhack Tepora and Hugo Ruiz are looking to make a name for themselves in the stacked featherweight division, while Rau’shee Warren and Nordine Oubaali are in the prime of their careers and battling for the WBC title. Promoções Mayweather’ Badou Jack has made an exemplary statement for his career inside and outside of the ring and is focused on further strengthening his resume, while Marcus Browne is looking to showcase his talent on boxing’s biggest stage.”

Tomada (22-1-3, 13 KOs) has fought twice at light heavyweight since relinquishing his super middleweight world title to campaign at 175 libras. The 35-year-old, who was born in Stockholm, Suécia, represented his father’s Gambia in the 2008 Olympics and now lives in Las Vegas. Jack won the super middleweight world title with a majority decision against Anthony Dirrell in 2015 and successfully defended the title three times before he relinquished the belt following a hard-fought majority draw against James DeGale in one 2017’s best fights. In his first bout at 175 libras, Jack stopped Nathan Cleverly to pick up the WBA light heavyweight title before fighting to a majority draw against Adonis Stevenson in his last fight on May 19.

“I’m looking forward to getting back onto another big stage to perform for my fans across the globe and prove I am one of the best fighters in the world,” said Jack. “I plan to show off my skills with a dominating performance on January 19. I always want to fight the best, and he’s the best that’s available right now. I’m always 100 percent ready and I’m going into this fight stronger, faster and with more experience than ever before.”

The 28-year-old Browne (22-0, 16 KOs) will be taking a step up to face an elite opponent when he battles Jack. Um membro da 2012 U.S. Olympic boxing team, Browne moved up the contender ladder in the 175-pound division with brute force and power, scoring three straight knockout victories against Thomas Williams, Jr., Sean Monaghan and Francy Ntetu. Browne, who was born and raised in Staten Island, N.I., scored a unanimous decision victory over Lenin Castillo in his last fight on August 4.

“This is really an honor and a privilege to have an opportunity to showcase my talents on a big time pay-per-view card featuring Manny Pacquiao and Adrien Broner,” Browne said. “Badou Jack is a championship-caliber fighter and one of the toughest guys you can fight in the light heavyweight division. I’m ready for the step up in competition and focused on being a household name in the sport sooner rather than later.”

Warren (16-2, 4 KOs) is looking to return to the world championship ranks with a victory over Oubaali. The 31-year-old became the first three-time Olympic boxer from the U.S. when he qualified for consecutive Olympic teams in 2004, 2008 e 2012. His Olympic run came to an end against Oubaali when he lost a narrow 19-18 decision in the first round of the 2012 London Games. A southpaw from Cincinnati, Ohio, Warren won the WBA Bantamweight World Championship with a majority decision over Juan Carlos Payano in 2016 and lost the title the next year to Zhanat Zhakiyanov by split-decision.

“This fight means everything for me and it’s about to be the biggest moment of my career,” Warren said. “Not only am I fighting for the WBC belt, but it’s on pay-per-view. When I first won the title it was like winning the gold medal at the Olympics. After I lost the title, it made me much hungrier and I want to get it back even more. I fought this guy in the Olympics, so I’m fighting for revenge. This isn’t the Olympics. This is 12 rounds and I don’t think he’s fought anybody like me. I have no choice but to put it all on the line on January 19.”

The 32-year-old Oubaali (14-0, 11 KOs), an unbeaten southpaw from Lens, Pas-de-Calais, França, has knocked out his last five opponents. His most recent KO of Luis Melendez on April 17 moved Oubaali up the ranks to position him for a world title shot. Oubaali, who is the sixth of 18 children born in France to parents who are from Morocco, twice represented France at the Olympics, qualifying in 2008 e 2012 when he defeated Warren.

“Many people are waiting for this fight because it’s the second time we meet,” said Oubaali.”I beat Rau’shee Warren at the 2012 London Games in a great battle. In the meantime, Rau’shee captured a world championship and lost it. Agora, I’m the WBC No. 1 ranked bantamweight fighter in the world. It will be a great fight in Las Vegas on January 19 and I intend to beat Rau’shee again to become the new WBC world champion.”

The 25-year-old Tepora (22-0, 17 KOs) has steadily risen up the ranks since turning pro in 2012 and most recently captured the WBA interim featherweight crown with a ninth-round stoppage of Edivaldo Ortega in July. Representing Cebu City, Filipinas, Tepora enters his U.S. debut on January 19 with stoppage wins in 11 de sua última 12 concursos.

“It has always been a dream to fight in the United States,” said Tepora. “I never dreamed that my first fight in the U.S. would be on a card with Senator Manny Pacquiao vs. Adrien Broner. I look forward to a tremendous fight on January 19 and defending my title versus former world champion Hugo Ruiz. As you all know the best rivalry in boxing is Filipino vs. Mexicano. It’s going to be a great fight.”

Fighting out of Los Mochis, Sinaloa, México, Ruiz (38-4, 33 KOs) will make his featherweight debut on January 19 after picking up two victories in 2018. The 30-year-old won a super bantamweight world title with a first round stoppage of Julio Ceja in 2016, avenging his previous loss to Ceja in one of 2015’s most exciting fights. He now seeks to position himself for a world title at 126 pounds with a victory against Tepora.

“I expect it to be a good fight because Tepora is undefeated and a good Filipino champion,” said Ruiz. “But I’m ready. I don’t think he can handle my power. Eu vou nocauteá-lo. I want to do my best to win the title. I’ve been watching videos of him and I’ve been training hard. I’m really focused on how to beat him. I’m still young, but I’ve got the experience to handle him in this fight.”

Hosea Burton calls out Anthony Yarde for British Light Heavyweight clash

Deixe um comentário

(L-R) – Head trainer Joe Gallagher & Hosea Burton

TORONTO (Dezembro 7, 2018) — Former British light heavyweight champion Hosea Burton has never been one to duck a fight. De fato, he’s looking for a fight.

Burton has made his intentions known, calling out undefeated Anthony Yarde, man to man, to his face. The two recently encountered one another during Tyson Fury-Deontay Wilder fight week in Los Angeles, Califórnia, where Burton was on-hand to support his cousin, Fúria.

“Let’s make the fight happen,” Burton told Yarde. “We’re both excited about it. They say I’m not up to you, but let’s get it going man.” Burton has gone undefeated for two years, since suffering his lone career defeat at the hands of Frank Buglioni, a fight in which he was winning prior to a final round stoppage. Buglioni has recently retired from the sport, leaving Burton to set his sights on Yarde, rather than avenging his defeat first.

Yarde recently scored a knockout victory over Walter Sequeira, Outubro 20 in Brentwood, melhorar o seu recorde de 17-0 com 16 nocautes. Burton, contudo, hasn’t been impressed.

“If he’s six foot, I must be six foot nine, because he’s a lot shorter than that,” Burton said of Yarde’s stature. “I would be his first live opponent. Let’s get it on.”

Yarde’s world ranking would play well into Burton’s plans in 2019, which include fighting for a world title after recapturing his domestic gold.

“This would be one of the biggest domestic light heavyweight fights in UK history. Everyone is already placing Yarde amongst the world’s best, but the fact is, he has to get past Hosea,” noted Adam Harris of Athlete Development and Management. “We believe Hosea is the one who’s ready to go after a world title. Let’s have it out and find out who’s right.”

Burton also plans on showcasing his skills in Canada in the new year, following in the footsteps of his cousin Tyson, the lineal heavyweight champion of the world.

Both Tyson and his cousin, Hughie Fury, fought in Canada early in their pro careers, and have held training camps in the Great White North as well. “Some of the best in the world have been coming to Canada to accelerate their careers,” Harris noted, “including Billy Joe Saunders before his most recent fights and, claro, Tyson in the past. We have a special relationship with the country, and the fight scene in Toronto is booming in a way we’ve never seen before. We have no doubt Hosea will be appreciated and find plenty of competition north of the border.”

Simply the best….. Roy Jones, Jr.

EUA Boxe Alumni Association, Classe de 2018 Inductee

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (Setembro 6, 2018) – Living legend Roy Jones, Jr., universally recognized as one of the greatest pound-for-pound boxers of all-time, leads a celebrated quintet of Class of 2018 inductees into the USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame.

 

 

 

A segunda recepção anual do Hall of Fame da Associação de Antigos Alunos de Boxe dos EUA, realizada em conjunto com o 2018 EUA Campeonatos Nacionais de Elite e Juventude de Boxe e Juniores e Preparação, Dezembro 2-8, will be held Dec. 7, no hotel Radisson (215 S. Temple St.) in Salk Lake City, Utah.

 

 

 

 

Além de Jones, a Classe de 2018 also includes two U.S. Olympic gold medalists and world (profissional) campeões, Andre Ward e Claressa Shields, as well as former USA Boxing National Director of Coaching Emanuel Steward and veteran USA Boxing official Tom Cleary. The latter two will be posthumously inducted.

 

 

 

The charter class inducted last year included Muhammad Ali e Evander Holyfield, as well as veteran coaches Roosevelt Sanders e Tom Coulter.

 

 

 

“I am honored to be selected for induction into the USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame,” Jones commented, “especially as a member of this great class with my fellow inductees.

 

 

 

“Amateur boxing gave me the chance to learn life skills as well as face every other possible scenario inside of the ring.”

 

 

 

Jones, ironicamente, got into boxing at the age of 11 because of Ali. “I saw Ali vs. (Joe) Frazierand just felt as though Ali and I had the same mental concept on life,” Jones explained.

 

 

 

Jones went on to become one of the best amateur boxers in the world, compiling a reported 121-13 registro, including gold medal performances at the 1984 National Junior Olympics and 1986 & 1987 National Golden Gloves Tournaments.

 

 

 

No 1988 Olympics in Seoul, Coreia Do Sul, Jones reached the championship final of the light middleweight division against Park Si-Hun, of South Korea. Jones suffered arguably the worst decision in boxing history, losing 3-2, despite outpunching his opponent, 86 para 32 landed punches, and he was forced to settle for a silver medal. Even his opponent admitted that Jones won their fight, leading the AIBA to later suspend the three judges who selected the hometown fighter as the winner.

 

 

 

How disgraceful was this decision? Jones was selected as the Val Barker Trophy winner as the best boxer of the 1988 Olympics and, due to controversy, the scoring system for Olympic boxing was changed, replacing the 20-point must system with electronic scoring.

 

 

 

“I was angered,” Jones admitted, “yet promoted to prove that I was the best fighter there, and in the world, at that time.”

 

 

 

Jones made his professional debut May 6, 1989, at home in Pensacola, Florida, in a scheduled eight-round bout, in which RJJ stopped Ricky Randall na segunda rodada. His long, glorious journey has produced a remarkable 66-9 (47 KOs) registro profissional, highlighted by nine major world titles in four different weight classes.

 

 

 

Em 2003, Jones defeated John Ruiz by way of a 12-round unanimous decision to become the first former world middleweight champion to become world heavyweight title holder in more than a century.

 

 

 

The possessor of exceptional hand and foot speed, atlética, movimento e reflexos, Jones went undefeated through his first 34 lutas profissionais, 22-3 (14) em lutas pelo título mundial. Against former, present or future world champions, Jones was 19-9 (8 KOs) and included among his victims were greats such as Bernard Hopkins, James Toney, Mike McCallum,Vinnie Pazienza, Virgil Hill, Antonio Tarver e Felix Trinidad.

 

 

 

Hoje, the 49-year-old Jones, technically speaking, is still an active fighter. He also has two promotional companies and gyms, located in Pensacola and Las Vegas, trains several pro boxers and serves as a color commentator for HBO Boxing. He recently opened gyms in South Africa.

 

 

 

For the past two years, Jones has hosted the “Future Stars of Boxing Tournament” em Las Vegas, showcasing some of the best amateur boxers in the world.

 

 

 

“Hosting the tournament in Las Vegas gives me the opportunity to give back to amateur boxing,” Jones explained. “It’s a great experience for the boxers and it reminds them that who they may have or still look up to, are watching them as well.”

“When USA Boxing alumni discuss their favorite fighters,” dito Chris tofflemire, EUA Boxe Alumni Association Diretor Executivo, “Roy Jones is near the top of everyone’s list. His spectacular talent, dedication to his craft, and infectious personality make him a no-brainer to headline this year’s Hall of Fame class. He continues to give back to amateur boxing and support the next generation. Roy deserves to be celebrated for all he has accomplished, and we look forward to honoring him in December.”

 

 

 

Criado para defender uma vida inteira, relações mutuamente benéficas entre EUA Boxing e seus ex-alunos, –boxers, funcionários, treinadores e fãs de boxe — the Alumni Association connects generations of champions, inspirando e retribuindo aos futuros campeões de boxe dos EUA, dentro e para fora do anel de.

 

 

 

A Associação de Alumni de Boxe dos EUA está aberta a todos que gostam de boxe e gostariam de permanecer conectados ao boxe amador.. Os membros têm acesso a uma ampla variedade de eventos especiais organizados pela Alumni Association, incluindo a recepção no Hall da Fama da Associação de Antigos Alunos do Boxe.

 

 

 

Para ingressar na Alumni Association, basta registrar-se em alumni@usaboxing.org para $40.00 taxa de associação por ano. Novos membros receberão uma camiseta, chaveiro e carteira eletrônica.

 

 

Quotes of Note from other World Champions

 

George Foreman: “(Jones) hits like a heavyweight and moved like a lightweight.”

 

Montell Griffin: “Floyd (Mayweather, Jr.) was no comparison as far as speed. Roy was much faster.”

 

Mike McCallum: “(Jones is) the greatest fighter of all time.”

 

 

 

 

If he ever hangs-up his gloves for good, Roy Jones, Jr. will be a first ballot inductee into the International Boxing Hall of Fame. There may never be another boxer quite like RJJ.

Umar Salamov da Rússia enfrentará Denis Liebau da Alemanha em confronto explosivo de peso leve em setembro 5 em Grozny

Deixe um comentário

Na quarta-feira, Setembro 5, destemido lutador russo meio-pesado Umar Salamov (21-1, 16 KOs) vai arriscar seu IBF #11 e WBO #15 classificações quando ele enfrenta o perfurador KO traiçoeiro Denis Liebau (23-2, 21 KOs) de Frankfurt Alemanha, para o WBO International Light Heavyweight Championship.

 

 

 

O confronto explosivo de 10 assaltos será realizado no anfiteatro do hotel cinco estrelas Grozny City, na cidade natal de Salamov, Grozny, Rússia, e transmitido ao vivo na Rússia pela Match TV.

 

 

 

Ansioso por uma chance no campeonato mundial, Salamov ultimamente tem aprimorado seu ofício no mundialmente famoso Kronk Gym em Detroit, ao lançar desafios públicos aos perigosos campeões mundiais Eleider Alvarez (WBO) e Dmitry Bivol (WBA). Ele foi visto pela última vez no ringue em junho, vencendo o campeonato norte-americano IBF marcando um nocaute impressionante na nona rodada sobre Brian Howard, ao vivo no Showtime.

 

 

 

“Eu amo treinar em Detroit,”Disse Salamov. “Estou animado por estar de volta ao ringue lutando pelo prestigioso cinturão internacional da WBO. Eu já segurei este título e sinto que me pertence. Eu sou o melhor meio-pesado do mundo e estou ansioso para provar isso de forma impressionante em setembro 5, na frente dos fãs da minha cidade natal.

 

 

 

Já conhecido por acertar em todos os oponentes fortes que enfrenta, Salamov diz que será ainda mais implacável contra Liebau.

 

 

 

“Vou procurar outro nocaute,"Ele disse. “Trabalhar com o treinador-chefe Javan“ Sugar ”Hill Stewart e meu co-treinador Rick Philips me ensinou muitas coisas novas. Estou em uma forma incrível e sinto que é impossível me vencer agora. ”

 

 

 

“A experiência de classe mundial de Umar, habilidades e agora um regime de treinamento de classe mundial fazem dele um dos melhores meio-pesados ​​do mundo,”Disse o co-promotor de Salamov, Dmitriy Salita (junto com Kazbek Aslambekov da KA-Promotions). “Umar está enfrentando um desafiante realmente experiente em Denis Liebau, mas eu sei que ele está pronto para uma vitória impressionante. Ele quer fazer uma declaração e colocar os nomes da divisão em aviso. Eu sei que ele colocará suas habilidades em exibição e será impressionante em 5 de setembro ”.

Umar Salamov desafia os campeões dos meio-pesados ​​Bivol e Alvarez

Deixe um comentário

 

Umar Salamov, lutador meio-pesado russo (21-1, 16 KOs) está lançando um desafio para o recém-coroado WBO Champ Eleider Alvarez e o governante WBA Dmitry Bivol.

 

 

 

Embora muitos dos melhores caças de 175 libras prefiram evitar Alvarez e Bivol, dois dos perfuradores mais fortes da divisão, Salamov, de 24 anos, diz que está pronto para o desafio a qualquer momento.

 

 

 

Tanto Alvarez quanto Bivol apareceram na televisão nacional no fim de semana, com Alvarez marcando um KO virado sobre Sergei Kovalev e Bivol defendendo seu título com uma decisão sem brilho sobre Isaac Chilemba.

 

 

 

“Eu vi suas lutas e posso dizer isso com segurança quando eu tiver a minha oportunidade, Vou destronar Bivol e Alvarez,”Disse Salamov. “Eu sou o melhor meio-pesado do mundo e estou ansioso para provar isso para os fãs de boxe lutando contra os melhores!"

 

 

 

IBF #11- e WBO # 15-rated Salamov foi visto pela última vez em junho, marcando um nocaute na nona rodada do rolo de destaque sobre Brian Howard, ao vivo no Showtime. A vitória impressionante lhe valeu a vaga IBF North American Championship. Em sua jovem carreira, ele também já venceu o IBO Youth e World Light Heavyweight, WBO Youth World, Europeu e internacional, e os campeonatos IBF da Europa Leste / Oeste Light Heavyweight.

 

 

 

“Depois de sua estreia nos Estados Unidos em junho, Estou muito confiante de que é apenas uma questão de tempo antes que ele ganhe o título mundial dos meio-pesados,”Disse seu co-promotor, Dmitriy Salita (junto com Kazbek Aslambekov da KA-Promotions). “Em apenas 24 anos, e com a quantidade de talento e experiência que ele tem, o céu é o limite para Umar na categoria meio-pesado. ”

 

 

 

Salamov está atualmente treinando em Detroit, no Kronk Boxing Gym. Sua próxima luta será anunciada em breve.

No Sábado I made the trip west from my London home to the beautiful city of Cardiff for the Owen Watkins promoted event at the Ice Arena Wales.

The event was due to be headlined by the much anticipated all Welsh Heavyweight title clash between Hari Miles and Dorian Darch, for the World Boxing Foundation (WBF) European Heavyweight Championship. However the fight had to be postponed as Darch was unable to take part due to a suspension he received following a fight on a different event a few weeks prior.

Despite this setback Owen Watkins had decided that the show must go on and I for one am pleased he made that choice, as the planned undercard featured a number of top class amateurs I have been looking forward to watching making their professional debuts.

First up was debuting Carl Thomas versus Kyle McNicholas in a four round Light Heavyweight Contest.

Both lads started really well exhibiting their respective boxing skills.

As the round progressed Thomas stepped up the pressure, backing McNicholas onto the ropes and began letting rip with shots to the body and head of the Liverpudlian.

As the round progressed into the final minute Thomas landed a cracking right to the head that shook McNicholas to the core, Thomas followed up with a left to the body followed almost immediately with a big left to the body that sent McNicholas to the canvas.

Surprisingly McNicholas made the count, they sure breed them tough on Merseyside, as that was a vicious body shot just below the lower rib, you just don’t see people get up after those that often.

On the restart Thomas went straight back on the attack, firstly firing off a stiff jab followed by another stinging left to the body and a double right to the head.

Thomas kept up the pressure, peppering McNicholas with a wicked body-head combination followed by another good stiff jab to back McNicholas into a neutral corner before letting rip with a sensational left hook to the body, that sent McNicholas down for a second time.

Referee Roger Riley began the count and as it just reached the eight count point McNicholas began to try and rise without success, leaving the referee no option but to wave the fight off just as the bell tolled to signal the end of the first round.

I’m pleased to say that McNicholas was perfectly OK and did get to his feet shortly after.

My final thoughts on this particular fight are; it may have only lasted one round but what a cracking round it was.

Next up see Kacper Dudzinski making his pro debut against Belfast’s Michael Kelly in a four round Super Welterweight contest.

Right from the off Dudzinski got behind his seriously strong jab and began controlling the proceedings with fast hands and stiff double jabs.

Kelly is no mug, Não por um longo tiro, he’s as savvy as they come, but even he had to concede to taking a defensive stance and patiently wait for any opportunity, no matter how slender, to counter, which to be honest were few and far between.

Dudzinski seriously impressed against Kelly and has a fantastic future in the sport.

It may have been his debut, but based on his performance no sábado noite, against a former genuine title challenger, I reckon he’ll go all the way to the top and deserves it too, anyone who can keep Kelly on the back foot the way Dudzinski did for virtually the full four rounds is without doubt something special.

Don’t get me wrong Kelly landed some cracking shots but Dudzinski’s sensationally fast hand speed and superb defence kept those opportunities to the bare minimum.

Nice little touch from Kelly late in the final round, following a ‘matrix style’ reaction move, that almost prevented him touching a glove down, contudo, much to his annoyance he received a count from referee Chris Kelly, although Kelly was convinced he’d actually had avoided his glove touching the canvas, but instead of standing there and protesting he dropped down and proceeded to do push ups throughout the count to show his disapproval, para o deleite da multidão.

After four brilliant rounds it came as no surprise that it was Dudzinski whose hand was held aloft – the official result showed Dudzinski scoring his maiden pro victory by a 40-35 pontos de margem.

Next up was Ben McGivern versus Ben Hough in a four round Cruiserweight contest.

O que uma luta, McGivern mainly bossing the proceedings, forcing Hough on to the back foot as well as the ropes for a good chunk of the first stanza. Hough may have been on the defensive for a good part of the first but when the opportunities arose he took them in style.

It was virtually a complete turnaround in Round Two, with Hough wrestling control and putting McGivern on the back foot, and ropes, similar to the way the Scot had bossed the first round.

The third stanza was a much closer fought affair, so much so I found it hard to split them, points wise.

The fourth started out more or less as the third ended, with both protagonists going for it hammer and tongs, but as the Round progressed McGivern stepped up the pace enough to not only secure the round, but also the victory.

After four sensational all action rounds, as I gave away above, it was McGivern that came away victorious, referee Roger Riley scoring the excellent contest 39-37 in favour of the Scotsman.

Following the fight both boxers agreed to a rematch, which I have been reliably informed is likely to take place in Liverpool on 08 de setembro – put the date in your diary this is a fight no one should miss!

The penultimate fight of the night see Blackwood, South Wales’ Liam Preece versus very, very late replacement Pentrefoelas, North Wales’ Steffan Hughes in an all Welsh contest.

What a corker this fight was, it was an all action thriller from start right through to the final bell.

Considering Preece had a considerable weight disadvantage to deal with, he really went for it, taking the fight to his more experienced, and heavier, adversário.

Preece boxed confidently not only when on the attack but also when defending against the pinpoint accurate exocets launched by Hughes.

Preece was impressive throughout, and I’m sure it didn’t surprise anyone in the Ice Arena Wales when referee Chris Kelly’s scorecard was read out as a 40-36 points victory for the South Wales Lad.

The final pro fight of the night pitted highly rated former amateur star Port Talbot’s Levi Griffiths versus Liverpool’s Scott McIntyre.

Griffiths is so slick, the classy youngster began well and landed some stinging shots, which forced McIntyre to switch to ‘plan B’ early on in an attempt to keep on the inside to prevent the Welshman from getting his big shots off.

McIntyre’s plan B may not have been pretty, but boy oh boy it was highly effective.

After the initial ‘open’ período, which allowed the slick Welshman to achieve a good level of success, the majority of the fight could have taken place in a phone box.

McIntyre clearly had no intention of giving Griffiths any opportunity to let rip with any big shots, he just kept him tied up throughout, sometimes by foul means, so much so that after numerous warnings for holding or not breaking when told, referee Roger Riley deducted a point, however even that point deduction wasn’t going to prevent the Liverpool man from securing the victory, the official score being 39-36.

Tem a dizer, whilst personally disappointed that the Miles-Darch WBF European title fight didn’t take place, promoter Owen Watkins had put together such a top class support card that I, as well as am sure everyone else in attendance had their Pugilistic Appetite well and truly sated by the fare on offer and look forward to his next promotion, which will take place at the Cwrt Herbert Leisure Centre in Neath on the 22nd September.

TARGETING SERGEY KOVALEV TITLE SHOT IN THE FALL
“SLUGFEST AT THE SUN” RESULTADOS

Uncasville, Conn. (Julho 1, 2018) – Returning to the ring after an 11-month layoff due to a broken jaw, Joe “The Beast” Ferreiro, Jr. provided early fireworks last night (Sábado, Junho 30) in the latest installment in the popular “Slugfest at The Sun” série, apresentado por Joe DeGuardia’s Star Boxing, em Mohegan Sun Arena em Uncasville, Connecticut.

 

 

 

“Slugfest at The Sun” was taped live and will air Julho 19, 8 -10 p.m. E, em New England Sports Network (NESN). Star Boxing’s next event, “Rockin’ Fights”,Setembro 21 at the Paramount in Huntington, Nova Iorque, will also air via tape- delay on NESN.

 

 

 

Rated No. 3 e n. 7 no mundo, respectivamente, pelo Conselho Mundial de Boxe (WBC) and World Boxing Association (WBA), Ferreiro (24-2, 20 KOs) hurt Melvin “The Romantic Redneck” Russell (11-5-2, 7 KOs) with the first punch he landed and finished the show, two devastating knockdowns later, na rodada de abertura.

 

 

 

“I hit him with a decent shot when I was walking him down and saw that I hurt him,” Joe Smith Jr. explained. “Assim, I looked to end it. I would have liked to have gotten some rust off, but I’m happy with my performance. My jaw feels great.”

 

 

 

“We’re looking to go to the top,” Smith’s promoter Joe DeGuardia estabelecido. “Joe’s plan and goal has always been to be world champion. We wanted (Sergey) Kovalev before this fight, but it didn’t work out. We’re hoping to get him in the fall.”

 

 

 

“Kovalev looks great, he motivates me,” Smith noted. “I think I can take advantage of his conditioning.”

 

 

 

Coming off her historic fight this past May against the undefeated Queen of Boxing Cecelia Breakhus, who won a 10-round decision in the first female fight to air on HBO, three-time world champion Kali “KO Mequinonoag” Reis (14-7-1, 4 KOs) cruised past Mexican welterweight Patty “Las Elegante” Ramirez (11-6, 5 KOs), um ex-desafiante ao título mundial, winning all eight rounds.

 

 

 

“She was a survivor,” Reis commented. “There was a lot we wanted to work on, body shots, jabs and more … getting more comfortable. I executed the plan my corner gave me and got the job done.

 

 

 

A Native American from Rhode Island, Reis wants a rematch with Breakhus, “I know I need to stay busy, active and remain fighting at welterweight to get the rematch,” Reis added. “I’m going to stay on her tail. I’ll be ready when it happens, I really want it to happen.”

 

 

 

In the television opener, undefeated junior welterweight “Ação” Anthony Laureano (8-0 3KO) lived up to his nickname, never taking a backwards step, as he pounded Juan Rodriguez (8-10-1 6KO) in the center of the ring from the opening bell through the end for a dominant six-round unanimous decision. O 2016 New England Golden Gloves champion Laureano, who fights out of East Hartford, CT, put on an entertaining show in front of his large, loud contingent of fans. Laureano effectively used every punch in his vast arsenal to break down a tough, game Rodriguez.

 

 

 

“I thought I did well,” Laureano said after the fight, “but I’d like to see more angles. I want to see more power, muito. It’s there, he felt it; it’s coming. I have a long road. Próxima luta, I’d like to have an eight-rounder. We’re adding more people to the team. I hope everyone see that I’m getting better each fight. I have more tools and my discipline is there.”

 

 

 

Invicto middleweight júnior Wendy “Haitian Fire” Toussaint (9-0, 3 KOs) lit up an overwhelmed Andy Gonzalez (6-3, 5 KOs), battering him from pillar to post, until referee Steve Willis waved off the fight in the third round. Haiti-native Toussaint, now living in Huntington, Nova Iorque, used his superior power and speed to make an impressive statement.

 

 

 

Popular South Boston southpaw Joe Farina (3-0, 2 KOs) overcame a flash knockdown during the opening seconds of the fight, using a relentless attack to defeat junior welterweight Steve Moore (1-4, 1 KO), by way of a four-round split decision.

 

 

 

Irish junior welterweight “Lethal” Larry Fryers (formerly known as Gleeson) melhorou o seu recorde de 7-1 (2 KOs) with a six-round unanimous decision over Anthony Woods (1-7-1). Fighting out of Yonkers NY, Fryers floored Woods with a left hook at the end of round two. Woods was penalized a point near the end of the final round for an intentional head butt.

 

 

 

Former U. of New Haven basketball star Cassius Chaney (13-0, 7 KOs), fighting out of New London (CT), manteve sua invencibilidade intacta, dropping Mexican heavyweight Elder Hernandez (5-3, 3 KOs) twice before referee Willis halted the match near the end of the opening round.

 

 

 

The opening bout of the evening ended in the second round and ruled a “Sem Resposta” because of an accidental head butt that left both fighters — William “O Silent Assassin” Foster III (8-0, 6 KOs) e Tyrome Jones (4-3-1, 1 KO) – with serious head cuts and unable to continue.
