Velazco, who hails from Aguascalientes, Mexic, 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 marcă.
“It was a great feeling to get a knockout in my first fight in the united states,” said Humberto Velazco, care este gestionat de 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, Am știut că a fost rănit, 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, Sergey Kovalev, Dmitry Bivol și 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,” a spus 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, Mexic.

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 fans’ support. 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: “Aceasta este o mare oportunitate pentru mine. 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. Nu clipi, 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. Victorie, 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 in doi ani when I got the call (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 Borðoy, 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: “Sunt 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 10lea. This will be my first fight on a Rivera Promotions card, but I’m familiar with most of the fighters on this card.”

WORCESTER, Masă. (Ianuarie 8, 2018) – Una dintre cele mai populare perspective de box New England, neînvinsă Hartford (CT) grea lumină Richard “Popeye Marinarul” Rivera (5-0, 4 KO), voința titlu a treia emisiune Sâmbătă noapte, Februarie 10, la Palladium din Worcester, Massachusetts.
În a cincea tranșe din “Viitorul New England” serie, prezentat de Rivera Promoții Entertainment (EPR), în vârstă de 27 de ani, Rivera se întâlnește Kevin “KRAY 2 UNKL” Cobbs (10-2, 4 KO), lupta din Burlington (VT), pentru vacant Box Federația Universală (UBF) New England din titlu în evenimentul principal de opt rotund.
Rivera, care a fost un 2016 campion Rocky Marciano Tournament, vine de pe o a doua rundă knock-out senzațional de veteran 146-lupta Roberto Valenzuela acest trecut decembrie 9 în Hampton, New Hampshire.
“Sunt încântat să aibă Richie box pentru titlul UBF New England atât de devreme în cariera sa pro,”” promotorul spus Jose Antonio Rivera, pensionari 3-time, 2-divizie campion mondial. “Aceasta este a treia oară când am avut privilegiul să-l lupta pe una dintre cărțile noastre. A luptat în evenimentul principal al ultimei noastre spectacol (Octombrie) la Centrul de DCU. Rivera arată mai bine și mai clare de fiecare dată când îl luptă mă uit. Văd lucruri mari vin pentru el. El are instrumentele și disciplina un antrenor aceștia caută și un boxer trebuie să devină campion mondial. Cerul este limita pentru Richard și, pentru acum, suntem recunoscători pentru a juca o mică parte pentru a ajuta la dezvoltarea carierei sale.”
Rivera a comercializat cu succes persona lui Popeye în timpul carierei sale tinere de box profesionist, purtând o șapcă de marinar în ring cu un dangling tradițional țeavă Popeye-ca și în gura lui. “Există mai multe motive pentru porecla mea, „Popeye“, dar când eram foarte tânăr,” Rivera a explicat, “Am avut antebrațelor anormal de mari. Pur și simplu a ramas cu mine prin anii, când oamenii se face referire la mine în sala de gimnastică, așa că am alerga cu ea. Aduc viața înapoi la Hartford cu răbdare, peste tot New England, cu răbdare, perseverență și stil. Eu locuiesc în acest moment.”
Deși el nu a câștigat mai multe premii importante sau turnee ca un boxer amator, Rivera a câștigat o experiență neprețuită de box multe dintre cele mai bune amatori din New England și în evenimente naționale, precum și sparring cu place de fosti campioni mondiali Peter “Ciocolata Kid” Quillin, Ciad Dawson și Joe Smith, Jr. De asemenea, el a învățat din timpul petrecut în ring cu fostul pretendenți titlu Israel “mai curând” Cardona și John Scully.
“Mi-am luat timpul meu de cotitură pro pentru că nu am avut un sistem de sprijin pentru a-mi ajunge la nivelul următor,” Rivera a remarcat. “Am fost nesigur. Feedback-ul pozitiv am primit de la luptători am sparred alimentat în încrederea mea. Acum, în doar lupta mea pro sasea, Eu voi fi cap de afis pentru a treia oară, și lupta pentru primul meu titlu. Nu pot să mulțumesc Rivera (Jose și fiul său, A.J.) suficient pentru ceea ce au făcut pentru mine. Ei au crezut în mine.”
În primul rând, Rivera a fost oarecum reticente în a lupta mai experimentat Cobb, dar, după ce face unele de cercetare, el a acceptat provocarea. “Am fost un pic nervos la început,” el a recunoscut. “Unii au fost sub semnul întrebării dacă am fost gata să-și intensifice să lupte cu el. Am făcut niște cercetări: el nu a avut o carieră mai mare amator, sau au luptat mai mult de șase sau opt lupte runde decât mine. Și am fost partenerul sparring pentru primul pro să-l bată, Tyron Burris(TKO2 în 2012). Sunt gata! Sunt 27 și au nevoie de o luptă ca asta.”
