MASHANTUCKET, CT (Yuni 4, 2017)The amazing comeback of Matt “Sharp ShooterRemillard continued last night as the popular Connecticut lightweight stopped Fatiou Fassinou a cikin Broadway dambe headliner held in Fox Theater, at Foxwoods Resort Casino, in Mashantucket, CT.
A Broadway dambe series is promoted by DiBella Entertainment and presented by Nissan of Queens, Azad Watches, OPTYX, and Christos Steak House.
Remillard, 30, was the No. 2-ranked featherweight in the world in 2011, when he lost to future world champion Mikey Garcia (LRTD11). Fighting out of Manchester, CT, tonight’s fight was Remillard’s first in his home state in six-and-a-half years, due to him serving a five-year prison sentence. He returned to the ring this past April, taking an eight-round decision from Agustine Mauras, a Worcester, MA.
A cikin bude zagaye, Remillard (25-1, 14 Kos) and the slick Benin-native, former WBC International Silver champion Fassinou (27-6-3, 14 Kos) got to know each other as both fighters were cautious. Remillard opened up in the second round, using his left to the body, dropping Fassinou in his corner during the final seconds. Remillard pressed the action in the third, peppering Fassinou around the ring in his familiar punishing style, putting Fassinou in hisSharp Shootersights for target practice in the fourth. Fassinou failed to answer the bell for the fifth round.
Against a southpaw, the left hook to the liver is there, a punch I’m known for,” Remillard commented after the fight. “He was a little sloppier than I expected. Na ji da kyau; Ba ni da 24/7 in the gym. Maybe I’ll have one more fight this year to get in some rounds, and then get ready for a big 2018. I want a rematch with Garcia, a 135 ko 140 fam, 100-kashi. He owes me a rematch. The guy he beat wasn’t me.
Ruslan Shamalov (L) & George Arias turned in the Fight of the Night
A cikin co-alama, two New York City-based heavyweights, 6’5″ Rasha Ruslan Shamalov (4-1, 3 Kos) and Dominican GentlemanGeorge Arias (7-0, 3 Kos), fighting out of Brooklyn and the Bronx, bi da bi, put their undefeated records on the line. Shamalov’s power punches rocked the much shorter 5’11Arias in the first round, but Arias stayed off the ropes and boxed much better in the second. The two fighters exchanged bombs throughout a terrific third round and, somehow, the fourth was even better with back-and-forth, non-stop action. The pace subsided slightly in the fifth round, setting the stage for a bombs-away sixth and final frame that didn’t disappoint.
Shamalov and Arias fought a furious pace, especially for heavyweights, in a legitimate six-round “Yaki na bana” dan takarar. Arias, the leader of Team Wash EmUp in the Bronx, won a six-round unanimous decision by scores of 60-54, 59-55, da kuma 58-56.
This win was humungous for me,” said an overjoyed Arias, after his first six-round fight. “I had a game plan, but once he hurt me in the first round, my heart took over and I just fought. I like to fight for the people, so I held on in the first instead of taking a knee.
Mykquan Williams (R) celebrated his high school graduation a little early
Crowd favorite “M” Mykquan Williams (7-0, 4 Kos) gave himself an early high school graduation present as the East Hartford fighter defeated Nicaraguan welterweight ArielLa Guerra” Vasquez (13-18-2, 9 Kos) in the former’s first six-round bout. The 19-year-old Williams, a five-time national amateur champion, is a budding star with tremendous upside. Poised beyond his years, Williams controlled the pace against his battle-tested southpaw opponent, wanda shi ne 11 years Williamssenior, displaying his vast arsenal of punches, especially his left-right combination that landed consistently. Williams’ fast hands exploded for the first time at the end of the second round, then he picked up his assault in the third, as he cruised to a six-round shutout decision, with three tallies of 60-54.
Williams graduates on Yuni 20 from Prince Tech. “That was a good graduation present,” Williams ya ce. “My hand speed played a big factor. He was a tough guy, especially for my first six-rounder.
Jennifer Salinas (R) had too much for Marquita Lee
featherweight champion JenniferThe Bolivian QueenSalinas (20-4, 5 Kos) ci Marquita Lee (3-5) by way of a hard-fought six-round unanimous decision. Salinas, yaki daga Providence, was the aggressor throughout, but Lee never took a backward step. Scorecards 59-55 sau biyu, da kuma 58-56, all for Salinas.
Fighting a much more experienced and taller opponent from Africa, promising Lynn, MA prospect Khiry “TNT” Todd (5-0, 5 Kos) won his fifth pro fight, duk da knockout. A 2016 New England Golden Guanto Zakaran, Todd gained invaluable experience against cagey super welterweight Nicolas Sarouna (12-9-1, 9 Kos), of Togo, who took a knee after getting hit by a sneaky uppercut in the third round. Sarouna failed to beat the 10-count as Todd improved his perfect record, with a TKO stoppage at the 1:32 mark.
Radzhab Butaev left Abraham Alvarez on the mat in serious pain
Unbeaten Russian middleweight prospect RadzhabThe PythonButaev (6-0, 4 Kos) was too much for Mexican Ibrahim “The Swift” Alvarez (20-11-1, 11 Kos). Butaev dropped Alvarez early with a vicious left hook, from which Alvarez never fully recovered. A brutal right to the liver put the Mexican on mat once again, in obvious pain, as referee Joey Lupino immediately waved off the fight at 1:05 na zagaye daya.
Cuban cruiserweight Luis “El Leon” Garcia (15-0, 12 Kos) kept his perfect pro record intact with a first-round knockout of his outclassed Mexican opponent Felipe Romero (19-14-1, 13 Kos), fighting out of San Diego. Now living in Peekskill, NY, Garcia dropped Romero with an overhand right in the opening seconds and he never let up, consistently hurting Romero with a series of devastating rights. Garcia closed the show with a powerhouse uppercut, leading referee Johnny Callas to halt the action at the 1:48 mark.
Three-time Puerto Rican National Boxing team member Jose Roman (4-0, 3 Kos) went the distance for the first time against a game William Hill (2-3), na Detroit. The skilled Puerto Rican super welterweight applied pressure from the opening bell, using a fierce body attack on Hill, who was trapped on the ropes for most of the fight. The judges tallied 40-36 sau biyu, da kuma 39-37, all for Roman via unanimous decision.

DiBella Entertainment’s unbeaten featherweight contender Luis Rosa also fought a ranar Asabar, headlining a card at the Floyd Little Athletic Center in his hometown of New Haven, CT, facing Carlos Osorio, na Managua, Nikaragua. Rosa pressured his adversary throughout the contest, wearing him down with a steady attack to the body. Osorio was game and had a stiff jab, though the hometown favorite’s combinations on the inside helped to diminish the Nicaraguan’s punch output. Believing that Osorio had taken a great deal of punishment, the referee halted the contest at the 1:25 alamar zagaye shida, awarding Rosa the TKO victory. Tare da nasara, Rosa improved to 23-0 (11 Kos), while Osorio’s record dropped to 13-7 (5 Kos).

“Wata girma canji lokacin da na koma Ireland fiye da shi shida makonni da suka wuce lokacin da na koma a nan,” the 28-year-old Garcia explained. “It was a lot harder in Ireland because I didn’t speak a word of English. I learned English from the street, watching TV and reading. It’s not a big change for me to move around because I traveled all over the world when I was a member of the Cuban National Team.

His last fight was a win by eight-round unanimous decision over previously undefeated (12-0) Alexander Johnson a Disamba 30, 2011 a Cabazon, California.
“Ba ta yanke shawara ba to, ku yaki da shekaru hudu,” Garcia added. “Something happened with my now former manager and promoter. I trained all the time, sparred mai yawa, and did as much as I could do in the gym. I still had a contract until it expired. I’ve known Kevin for 2-3 shekaru. He asked me why I wasn’t fighting and I told him everything. He said to call him when my contract expired because he wanted to manage me and that’s what I did.
“Amurka yayi ni mai kyau damar, mafi alhẽri daga Ingila ko Ireland, and I’m going to finish my boxing career here. I’m fighting December 5ga watan and taking things step by step. I’m not going to rush. There are a lot of great fighters in the light heavyweight division and I hope to be in the mix next year.

He called to tell me his contract had expired and we worked out a deal that brought him here to live in New York.
I honestly don’t see any rust watching him spar. I know sparring isn’t fighting but everybody in the gym stops to watch him workout. Na gaskiya zaton, da zarar ya na da wani alhẽri ta faɗa a karkashin bel, ya za a saman contender a cikin haske matakin matsakaicin nauyi rabo.
