QUOTES AND PHOTOS FROM TODAY’S MEDIA WORKOUT:

 

 

 

 

I’m so excited to be back fighting at home, especially after our history making fight on HBO. I fought Cecilia Braekhus. We were the first women to ever fight on HBO and there were more than a million viewers. If I knew that many people would be watching, I would have been a lot more nervous.

 

 

 

“Na papiru, it was a loss, but it was really a win-win for me, and women’s boxing. It’s already opened a lot of doors for me. There’s been so much growth for me and women’s boxing. It’s going to open the door for other women to fight on networks. It was a step up for women’s boxing, not just for one event, but forever.

 

 

 

I’m the first female Native American to fight in New England.

 

 

 

I’ve been fighting 18 godina. I played basketball and volleyball in high school, but I love boxing.

 

 

 

I showed in my last fight that I belong to be with the elite. I want to get a rematch (with Braekhus).”

 

 

 

Being a road warrior, I’m familiar fighting away or at home, but it’s more comfortable fighting here at home. My hometown crowd is always very supportive.

 

 

 

“(Subota) I am going to come out with a victory. My opponent’s taller, but I just need to follow the game plan and execute.

Aguascalientes, MX (Veljača 19, 2018) – Ovaj prošlosti Subota, na Don Haskins centra u El Pasu, TX, šećer Promocije light-heavyweight prospect, Humberto “Tito” Velazco (19-1-1, 14 Kos), scored the knockout of the night, protiv Toma “Najviši autoritet” Williams Jr.. (20-4, 14 Kos).
Velazco, who hails from Aguascalientes, Meksiko, rallied from an early first round knockdown, which was more of an off-balance circumstance. Velazco wasn’t hurt and evened the score in the second round with his own knockdown, catching Williams with a short right to the face, a punch he didn’t see coming. Williams survived the round but was walking on wobbly legs. Now in a rhythm, Velazco’s timing was on point as he sent Williams to the deck for the second time in round three, this time hurting him badly with combination of punches. Williams survived once again only to be stopped in round four when Velazco, a heavy-handed southpaw, blasted him with a straight left, forcing the referee to stop the bout at the 1:37 oznaka.
It was a great feeling to get a knockout in my first fight in the united states,” said Humberto Velazco, koji upravlja Greg Hannley of Prince Ranch Boxing. “When I got up from the knockdown I wasn’t hurt, but it definitely woke me up. When I dropped Williams, Znao sam da je povrijeđen, but the round ended. I knew I had to step it up and I got him out of there. I’m ready to fight all the big names at light-heavyweight and super-middleweight. Adonis Stevenson, Sergej Kovalev, Dmitry Bivol a Artur Beterbiev are at the top. I want their belts, so they are on my target list.
A genetic freak, Velaszco stands slightly over 6″1, and has a rare combination of speed and power. His athletic pedigree runs in the family as his brother is a professional basketball player.
When I first saw Velazco in the gym, I knew he was something special,” rekla Oscar Vazquez, CEO of Sugar Promotions. “He has great feet for a big man and showed he can bang with the best of them. I’m very grateful to the folks at PBC, who gave us the opportunity to fight on this card. I believe Velazco will be the next big star to come out of Mexico.
Velazco is a super athletic fighter with a great personality.said Prince Ranch Boxing’s Greg Hannley. “His final knockdown was amazing. We have big plans for Tito and everyone on boxing will know his name soon.
Velazco vs. Williams Jr.. was showcased on the PBC card headlined by Victor Ortiz vs. Devon Alexander. Look for Velaszco to be back in the ring by summer, most likely in his hometown of Aguascalientes, Meksiko.

Press konferencija citati
Jose Rivera, RPE CEO: “I’m excited because a press conference means the fights are getting closer. We plan to build our promotional company this year. There is a lot of talent in New England and that’s why we have so many Connecticut fighters on this card. I want the fighters here to understand the importance of a press conference. They will gain valuable experience speaking in public and being interviewed by the media. One of the primary reasons we’re promoting is to give young fighters a platform to box and prepare them for their pro careers.
A.J. Rivera, RPE President/Matchmaker: “The support we’ve received has been tremendous and we exceeded expectations in our first year. This is just the begining for RPE. We’re going to get better this year. We’re not satisfied just being a small promotional company. Boxing is the loneliest sport in the world and these boxers need fanssupport. There’s a lot of talent in New England and much of it is concentrated in Connecticut. We have more Connecticut fighters on this card than fighters from Massachusetts.
Richard Rivera: “Ovo je velika prilika za mene. Rivera Promotions accomplished so much in its first year. I fought in the co-main twice of two previous RPE shows I fought on. This is going to be an awesome show, not just the main event. There are competitive boxers up and down the card. Nemojte trepnuti, don’t go to the bathroom because any one of these fights could end at any time.
This is a big step up for my career. Boxing is my passion. We’re both coming to fight. Pobjeda, lose or draw we’ll see who the Alpha dog is at the end. “I’m ‘Popeye The Sailor Man’, and I’m good to the finish because I eat my spinach.
Kevin Cobbs: “I respect Rivera and believe in what I hear. He seems like a good dude. I’m excited about this fight. A lot of people weren’t sure about what I was doing because I hadn’t fought u dvije godine kad sam dobio poziv (to fight Rivera). Boxing took me out of the space was in and I never stopped boxing. This is going to be a big year for the Rivera’s. I like to switch it up and I’m ready to go.
Bobby Harris, III: “My opponent wants to redeem his brother’s loss to me. I want to thank RPE for putting me in the co-feature in only my third pro fight. My first two fights were a learning experience and this fight I’m looking to make a statement to showcase my talents. I have a lot to prove as the only Worcester fighter on this card.
Omar Bordoy, Jr:I’m fighting a tough opponent. Fighting is easier for me than talking up here. I’m fighting a guy from Hartford. I have a lot of love for his trainer and Hartford. I want my hand raised at the end of the fight.
Derrick Whitley:I want to thank Rivera Promotions for putting me on this card. I fought on two of their shows last year and came out 2-0. I’m looking to be 3-0. It was a learning experience going from the amateurs to pros. Everybody’s goal is to raise your level. I’m in the best shape of my life for this fight and doing things in the gym I’ve never done before. I’m looking for a stoppage.
Wilfredo Pagan: “Ja sam 37 years old and I’ve always had a glad to fight at least one pro fight. A couple of fights fell through but the Riveras opened the doors for me. I put it all into my fights. I was looking for one fight and this will be my fourth. I’m going to be 4-0.
Carlos Marraro, III: I want to thank Rivera Promotions for the opportunity to showcase my talents February 10th. This will be my first fight on a Rivera Promotions card, but I’m familiar with most of the fighters on this card.

On se borio u glavnom događaju našeg zadnjeg koncerta (Listopada) u DCU Center. Rivera izgleda bolje i oštrije svaki put sam ga borba gledati. Vidim velike stvari dolaze za njega. On ima alate i disciplinu trener traži i boksač treba postati svjetski prvak. Nebo je granica za Richarda i, za sada, mi smo zahvalni da igraju mali dio kako bi pomogli razviti svoju profesionalnu karijeru.”

To samo zaglavi sa mnom kroz godine, kada ljudi iz mene u teretani, pa sam trčanje s njom. Ja donosi život natrag u Hartfordu strpljenja, diljem New England, strpljenja, upornost i stil. Ja živim u ovom trenutku.”

Pozitivna povratna informacija sam dobio od boraca ja sparred plasirao u moje samopouzdanje. Sada, samo u mojoj šestoj pro borbi, Ja ću biti headlineri po treći put, i borbe za moj prvi naslov. Ne mogu zahvaliti Riveras (Jose i njegov sin, AJ) dovoljno za ono što su učinili za mene. Oni su vjerovali u mene.”
Isprva, Rivera je bio pomalo nerado borbi protiv iskusnijeg Cobb, ali, Nakon događaj neki istraživanje, on je prihvatio izazov. “Bio sam malo nervozan na početku,” priznao. “Neki su u pitanje, da sam bio spreman na korak do njega boriti. Ja sam neke istraživanja: on nije imao veću amaterske karijere, ili se borio još šest ili osam krugova borbe od mene. I ja sam bio sparing partner za prvi pro da ga tuku, Tyron Burris(TKO2 u 2012). Ja sam spreman! Ja sam 27 i treba boriti ovako.”
