Red-Hot Lightweight Contender Mason Menard Calling out WBO Champ Terry Flanagan

Legg igjen en kommentar
Coming off another impressive SHOWTIME-televised knockout last Friday, Louisiana-based lightweight contender “Rock Hard Mighty” Mason Menard is setting his sights on WBO Lightweight Champion Terry Flanagan.
“I would be more than happy to fight Terry Flanagan,” said Menard. “It would be a great fight. He’s a skillful southpaw, but he is touchable. With my power, that makes for a cat and mouse-type fight. I think sooner or later I would catch up with him.”
Menard (32-1, 24 KOs) of Rayne, Louisiana, was last seen taking out the capable Bahodir Mamadjonov in nine rounds in the co-main event of a ShoBox: The New Generation broadcast from Rochester, New York last Friday night. Før det, the 27-year-old scored a “Knockout of the Year” candidate over then undefeated Eudy Bernardo.
“He’s a star in the making with all the momentum in the world behind him,” said Menard’s promoter, Greg Cohen. “Mason is now the WBO NABO Champion and climbing up their ratings. Now that Felix Verdejo (whom Flanagan was supposed to fight) has been injured, I think Menard stepping in would make for a great match-up.”
Men, Menard says he has his doubts that Manchester’s Flanagan will take the bait.
“Let’s just be real, after what I did to the last skillful southpaw (Mamadjonov) with only two weeks’ legge merke til, I doubt he wants these problems.”

Barroso and Camp Offer Sincere Respect for ‘Future Former Champion’ Crolla

Legg igjen en kommentar
Heading into his showdown with WBA World Lightweight Champion Anthony Crolla (30-4-3, 12 KOs) denne lørdagen night at the Manchester Arena in Manchester, UK, WBA #1-rated contender and interim champion Ismael Barroso (19-0-2, 18 KOs) and his team wish to offer their sincere respect to the “future former champion.”
“He is a true champion,” said Barroso of Crolla. “There were easier domestic fights for more money he could have taken, but he wanted to do the right thing and face his top challenger. I admire him for that.”
Dessverre, the murderous punching Barroso, El Tigre, Venezuela, says he’ll be ending the brave Englishman’s run as champion på lørdag natt.
“Han (Crolla) won the WBA title by an upset last year and he’s a likeable man,” continued Barroso, “but all good things come to an end. When they help him up after the fightLørdag, he will have all my respect and I wish him very well for the rest of his life.”
Greg Cohen, promoter of Barroso, agrees with his fighter’s sentiment.
“Anthony is a true champion, but he’s in way over his head in this one. And him being in his home country and the fans backing him, that only makes Ismael that much more determined. Crolla has had a great and surprising run as champion, but there’s not much anyone can do for him in the face of the kind of power he’s up against.”

MAYWEATHER PROMOTIONS SIGNS EXCITING LIGHTWEIGHT CONTENDER SHARIF “THE LION” BOGERE

Legg igjen en kommentar
LAS VEGAS (Mars 10, 2016) – Mayweather Kampanjer is pleased to announce the signing of exciting lightweight contender Sharif “Løven” Bogere to their growing stable of championship-caliber fighters.
Bogere (27-1, 19 KOs) has won his last four fights by knockout and is eager to return to the ring with the support of his new promoter.
“This is such a great day for me and an important move for my career,” said Bogere. “I’m very thankful to Floyd, Leonard, and the whole Mayweather Promotions team. I cannot wait to get back in the ring and show everybody why I’m a future world champion. I want to fight the best and I feel this will put me in a position to conquer the sport.”
Mayweather Promotions boasts over 20 professional fighters included current and former world champions Badou Jack, Mickey Bey and Ishe Smith, in addition to the recently retired 12-time world champion and President of Mayweather Promotions, Floyd Mayweather.
“We’re proud to add another young, hungry fighter to our Mayweather Promotions stable,” Said Mayweather. “Sharif Bogere is a very talented young man with an incredible backstory and I know that he’s working hard to become a world champion.”
