“I’m scared all over again, like this is my first fight.” – Paul Williams

НЬЮ-ЙОРК (Март 15, 2016) – Former two-time world champion Пол Уильямс, who’s pro career came to a sudden and tragic end when he was paralyzed from the waist down after a motorcycle accident in May 2012, is back in boxing as a trainer.

 

The popular Williams will work the corner of once-beaten Джастин DeLoach (13-1, 7 КО) when DeLoach faces undefeated super welterweight and local favorite Диллон Кук (16-0, 6 КО) in the opening eight-round bout of what is now a ShoBox: Новое поколение quadrupleheader на Пятница, Март 25, жить наВРЕМЯ ДЛЯ ШОУ (10:30 p.m. И/PT, задержка на западном побережье) от Buffalo Run казино в Майами, Оклахома.

 

DeLoach is the first boxer to be trained by Williams, the former 154-pound southpaw who has been confined to a wheelchair since the accident.

“I guess I was being selfish at first,»Сказал Уильямс. “I didn’t want to deal with the fight game. I wanted to be the one fighting. But that changed.”

 

Williams was reluctant to train fighters for a long time. Это былоGeorge Peterson, who managed and trained Williams from the time the boxer was a skinny kid with little amateur experience until his career ended, that helped persuade “The Punisher” to return to the ring. Williams trains his pupil at a private gym in his hometown of Aiken, S.C.

 

“You know me, I really didn’t want to do this,’’ Williams said. “But finally after three or four years of George practically begging me to try and do it, this opportunity came along and I decided to give it a shot.

 

“Everything is about timing. I started thinking about it, George kept asking me and messing with me about it, one thing led to another, and I finally said I’d take a stab at it.
Уильямс, who is enjoying his new job description, admits there are some pre-fight jitters.

 

“I’m scared all over again, like this is my first fight. Сейчас, I have to think about everything that Mr. Pete was thinking about when I was fighting. I have to try and teach Justin what I knew how to do.

 

“George and I accomplished a lot. He made me a world champion; before that, no one knew who he or I was. We were just a couple of guys from Aiken, S.C. We gave fans fights to remember.

 

“I was the fighter the press labeled as ‘Most feared in boxing.’ But that’s over for me now. I’m jumping into a whole new thing. It’s been an adjustment but I’m glad I’m doing it.’’

 

In his role as a trainer, Williams’ mindset has changed drastically from his fighting days. “Look, I always feel good,'' Сказал он. “What’s happened has happened. Это то, что есть. This is my first time stepping back into the world. Я люблю бокс.

 

“What I don’t want to see is a fighter getting hurt. This is a hard sport. I know when I was in there I was always going for broke. But I want Justin, all fighters actually, to come out of the ring the same way they came in. Победа или поражение, I don’t want to see anybody get hurt.’’

 

On DeLoach, Уильямс сказал,, “He’s a good fighter and now he’s in the spotlight. I want to do my best in the training world to get him at his peak. I hope he does his best. I’d love to one-up George with Justin.’’

 

Becoming the best takes strenuous work on a daily basis, and Williams was no stranger to putting in the hours.

 

“I never took a shortcut,'' Сказал он. “You take shortcuts, you know what’ll happen. I took the long road home when I was fighting and fans, боевики, everybody knew what to expect when I stepped in the ring.

 

“Justin isn’t like this, but one thing I know is that fighters think they’re slick. Хорошо, you can’t pull anything over me. Я был там, seen it all.’’

 

И, как всегда, he’ll have George Peterson by his side.

 

“I’m just helping Paul,’’ said Peterson, who will serve as Williams’ assistant trainer. "Так далеко, he’s doing great.”

 

It will be the ShoBox и 2016 дебюты — and toughest fight to datefor both DeLoach and Cook.

 

DeLoach was a top amateur, competing in the USA Boxing National Championships in 2012. He won a National Silver Golden Gloves title when he was 13.

 

The 22-year-old DeLoach, of Augusta, Ga., has won three in a row since suffering his lone loss to Cesar Villa фев. 6, 2015. That was before he started training with Williams.

 

“This has been a total blessing, and I say that every day,” DeLoach said. “Thank God. He’s the one who brought the two of us together, это главное. Paul loves it, just to be back. I think he was scared at first, his reputation was at stake and so was mine.

 

“But he’s been so helpful – just in the mental side of things. I was already a good boxer but he’s taken me to another level mentally. He’s been pushing me, criticizing me, giving me instructions and picking my brain.”

 

DeLoach and Williams grew up just 30 minutes down the road from each other.

 

“Me and Paul, we’ve known each other our whole lives,’’ DeLoach said. “I’m from Augusta, Ga., and he was right across in Aiken. We knew each other when I was coming up as an amateur. He came to my last pro fight that was in San Antonio. When I saw him, I got so excited. We started to talk and I said something like, "Эй, Пол, wouldn’t it be cool if we got together?"

 

“Once I came home, we started working together and he’s been training me since. I think we’re going on about three months now. It’s an unbelievable feeling to be able to work with one of my favorite fighters.”

 

В своей последней прогулке, DeLoach won a shutout four-round decision overSantos Benavides последний Декабрь. 12. DeLoach, a pro since March 2013, fought six times that year and four times each in 2014 и 2015.

 

“I’m really looking forward to fighting for the first time for him,” DeLoach said. “I’ve gone crazy waiting for my break and an opportunity like this to fight on SHOWTIME. I know it’s not easy fighting in your opponent’s backyard, but with Paul, George Peterson and me and my skills, we are confident it will be a good fight.’’

 

Повар, 25, is from Seneca, Мо, which is located about 20 minutes from Buffalo Run Casino where he has fought six times. A top amateur, he won six Golden Gloves titles, a Junior Golden Gloves National title, a Heartland title and four regional Silver Gloves titles. He is popular at Buffalo Run and will be making his premium network television debut against easily his most dangerous assignment as a pro. Cook’s brother, Джесси, a welterweight with a record of 15-1-1, will box on the non-televised portion of the event.

 

Dillon Cook turned pro in August 2012, fought twice that year, seven times in 2013, four times in 2014 and three times last year. Five of his last seven took place at Buffalo Run, including two out of three in 2015. He’s coming off a lopsided eight-round decision overRahman Yusubov последний Ноябрь. 14.

 

“I couldn’t be more excited about making my ShoBox дебют, right at home, at the Buffalo Run Casino,” Cook said. «Это огромная возможность для меня, and I plan on putting on a spectacular showing, for all my fans there that night and everyone watching on TV.”

 

В ShoBox main event, unbeaten super lightweight knockout artist and emerging rising star, Regis "Rougarou" ПРОГРАММЫ (16-0, 13 КО), Houston by way of New Orleans, will meet experienced Аарон "Драгоценный камень" Herrera (29-4-1, 18 КО), of Valladolid, Мексика, в 10-раундовом спичке.

“Aaron Herrera is a rugged veteran and I know there will be some fireworks. I am thankful to my promoter, ДиБелла Развлечения, and to the network, ВРЕМЯ ДЛЯ ШОУ, for the opportunity to display my skills and talent.”

 

Что касается его прозвище, Prograis said, “My manager and my dad were just trying to come up with nicknames. В основном, everybody was just shooting out names and they shot out that one – ‘Rougarou’. Сначала, I didn’t like it, but it stuck with me. A rougarou is like a Louisiana-type swamp monster or werewolf.”

 

Эррера, 27, of Valladolid, Мексика, победитель 16 in a row at the outset of a pro career that began in August 2008, has fought some noteworthy opposition. This will be his second fight in U.S. почвы. In his stateside debut, Herrera dropped a 10-round decision to undefeated prospect Pedro Campa последний Декабрь. 12.

 

Besides experience, Herrera has solid skills, movement and hails from a strong family boxing background (his father and grandfather boxed). He’s at his best when he keeps his foes off-balance and can surely outbox them. Это будет 17й consecutive time he’ll be matched against a boxer with a winning record.

 

“I’m very excited at the opportunity to showcase my talent on theShoBox series,’’ Herrera said. “I’ve watched a few fights of Regis on YouTube. Он хороший боец, but I am a better one. I feel fighting in Mexico has given me the upper hand. Mexican fighters are tough. I have fought better opposition and I’m the more experienced fighter.

 

“I’ve been looking for an opportunity like this. I need a good breakout fight for the fans to see me in action. I am a proud Mexican fighter and on March 25 the fans will see how real Mexicans fight like, and Prograis will know who Aaron Herrera is. Viva Mexico!"

“I am getting my mind ready for war,’’ said Givhan, whose nickname, “King Beamen,” is a reference to Jamie Foxx’s character from the movie “Any Given Воскресенье."

 

“Training is going great both mentally and physically. I belong on theShoBox series because they showcase great talent and, false modesty aside, I have great boxing talent. I will feel at home fighting on SHOWTIME and I take this as a great honor to fight on their network.

 

“My opponent has not fought anyone of my caliber. I know he’s been talking trash, but it won’t matter in the end. He has not had an opponent who can outthink, outshine and outbox him. I am that guy, I am that fighter. The cliché is true: to be the best you’ve got to fight and beat the best. We are both undefeated and this is the kind of a fight that separates the good fighters from the great ones.’’

 

Голуб, a six-foot, 27 year-old southpaw, turned pro in November 2012. At the outset of his career, он пошел 5-0 in the WSOB. He’s gone 10-0 с, winning eight by knockout, including his last four in a row.

“It is an honor for me to make my national television debut,” Golub said. “Many champions got their start on ShoBox and I am determined to add my name to that illustrious list. My path toward a world title begins onМарт 25 when I hand Marlon Aguas his first defeat.”
