BOSTON (Հունվար 26, 2022) – It’s Tank Time, կրկին!

Undefeated prospect Francis “Frank The Tank” Hogan (9-0, 9 Նոկաուտով) will be in the ring February 12րդ on a mission to extend his perfect pro record versus Vincent Floyd (4-11-2, 2 Նոկաուտով) in an 8-round Special Welterweight Attraction on the “St. Valentine’s Day’s Massacre” card, presented by Vertex Promotions, at Moseley’s On The Charles in Dedham, Մասաչուսեթս.

“It’s (streak) very important for me,” Hogan said. “I don’t look at it as going 10 համար 10. I don’t think I need to knockout my opponent as quickly as possible. I don’t go out there looking for a knockout unless I set up an opponent and hurt him. Through the fight I get better and better. I know I can take out a lot of fighters because I know how hard I hit. My left is my best punch. I can knockout guys with my jab, but I’ve knocked out guys with a right hook, էլ.

“I go into the ring knowing I’m going to take the heart and will away from who I’m fighting. Everybody is looking at me. They know I’m the real deal and how hard I hit. Some come with the will to win, but once I hit them, they just run or hold. I’m going to put them to sleep.”

The 21-year-old southpaw Hogan, fighting out of Weymouth (MA), has knocked out each of his 9 professional opponents to date. The popular fighter was a celebrated amateur boxer, highlighted by his gold-medal performance at the 2019 New England Golden Gloves Championships.
Hogan’s as smart about boxing as he is skilled. “Frank The Tank” understands that there is no rush to accelerate the pace of his career.

“I don’t want to rush,” Hogan remarked. «Ես ոչ միայն 21 and there’s still a lot of development. I know a lot, but I believe I can learn more. You don’t just transfer from the amateurs to pros. You need to go rounds. Boxing isn’t all about knockouts. I need to gain experience, not only in the ring, but all around. If I get a good offer, չնայած, Ես կվերցնեմ այն. ‘It’s Tank Time’ not their time.”

Although his opponent has changed, he is aware that Floyd is tall, long, and that he likes to give and take. “But I’m looking to take him out cold, not have the referee stop the fight,” Hogan added. “I want to start 2002 with a bang by leaving him on the mat.”

Fighter Locker signs Kansas City lightweight prospect Marcell Davidson

Davidson bros.jpg
Davidson brothers (L-R) Marcus & Marcell


BOSTON (Հունվար 11, 2022) – Kansas City (KS) lightweight Marcell Davidson has joined his younger brother, undefeated welterweight Marcus Davidson (2-0, 2 Նոկաուտով), in Ryan Roach’s Fighter Locker stable having recently signed an exclusive managerial contract.


The 24-year-old Marcell was a decorated amateur boxer, capturing the Ringside World Championships twice, in addition to winning a gold medal at the 2019 Ազգային Golden ձեռնոցներ մրցաշար. The 6’ 3” southpaw also won a silver medal at the 2017 Ազգային Ոսկե Ձեռնոցներ, as well as a bronze the following year at the The Gloves. He also competed in the Olympic Trials.


Davidson got into boxing almost by accident. He and Marcus were together playing football at a local recreation center. The season ended and they were about to sign up for baseball, when the boxing coach asked them what sport they were going to get into next. He told them that boxers are stronger than football players. Marcus was immediately a convert, but Marcell really wasn’t into it. He just ran around instead of training and eventually he was banned because he broke a rule. Վերջ ի վերջո, Marcell got his act together and he was allowed back in the gym a couple of years later. Both of the Davidson brothers have been there ever since.


As Marcell says, “My brother talks to everybody, and I follow.” So, when Marcus turned pro and signed a managerial contract with Roach, soon afterwards Marcell joined Fighter Locker.


“I was ready to turn pro and stayed in the gym training,” Marcell explained. “We were talking about which manager to sign with. We waited it out and stayed ready. My brother signed before me, and I listened to him talk about Ryan. My brother said Ryan was a great guy and the time was right for me to sign with him, էլ.


“Ryan is a great guy. I didn’t know anything about him – not even his family in boxing – but he’s a great guy who wants to help us and build our careers. I could definitely tell that he cares and takes care of his fighters.”

Davidson is slated to make his pro debut Feb. 12րդ on “St. Valentine’s Day Massacre,” presented by Vertex Promotions, at Moseley’s On The Charles in Dedham, Մասաչուսեթս.
“I’m very excited,” Marcell spoke about his upcoming pro debut. “You won’t see it, but I’m excited inside. I’ve been waiting for this moment. I’d like to stay very busy this year and maybe move up to 6-rounders by my fifth or sixth pro fight.”


“Marcell is a very skilled fighter,” Roach commented about his newest fighter. “One of his best attributes, which I think will be a huge advantage, is hos 6’ 1” height. We have been discussing him fighting at 135-140 ֆունտ. He is a very athletic, young man with speed and power. He was a nationally ranked fighter who went to the Olympic Qualifiers, so this is a huge signing for my company. I’m excited to have the Davidson brothers under one stable, Fighter Locket. They are very close and do everything together. This will be fun


Fighter Locker’s growing stable of gifted boxers also includes California super flyweight Rocco “So Cal Kid” Santomauro (21-1, 6 Նոկաուտով), New York’s ABF American West super lightweight Ray Jay “The Destroyer” Bermudez (15-0, 11 Նոկաուտով), Connecticut’s ABF USA super welterweight Jimmy “Quiet Storm” Williams (18-5-2, 6 Նոկաուտով), Colorado’s ABF American West super middleweight champion “The Amazing” Shawn McCalman (10-0, 6 Նոկաուտով), Massachusetts super lightweight Adrian “Tonka” Sosa (12-0, 9 Նոկաուտով), Florida super bantamweight Daniel “The Dedication” Bailey, Jr. (9-0, 5 Նոկաուտով), Massachusetts featherweight Troy Anderson, Jr. (3-0, 2 Նոկաուտով), 2-time Brazilian Olympian & 2016 Olympic silver medalist Yuberjen Martinez, Brazilian Olympian Jorge Vivas, 2-time Dominican Olympian, lightweight Leonel de los Santos (5-0, 5 Նոկաուտով), Dominican cruiserweight Roki “Rocky” Berroa (2-0, 1 KO), Dominican super welterweight Juan Solano Santos (1-0, 1 KO), Dominican featherweight Orlando Perez Zapata (10-0, 8 Նոկաուտով), Dominican lightweight Isaelin Florian Henriguez (8-1, 4 Նոկաուտով), Florida light heavyweight Robert Daniels, Jr. (5-0, 5 Նոկաուտով), Irish light heavyweight Tommy “The Kid” O’Toole (2-0, 2 Նոկաուտով), Texas super lightweight Miranda “La Alacrana” Reyes (5-0-1, 2 Նոկաուտով) ), and Utah brothers, ABF American West lightweight champion Ignacio Chairez (9-0-1, 5 Նոկաուտով) and lightweight Gabriel Chairez (4-0-1, 2 Նոկաուտով).

Coyle’s promoter, Jody Caliguire of Fire Fist Boxing Promotions, is also pleased to have his highly-regarded fighter back in the US and shares the same vision for 2022.


“Connor is ready to make a big splash this year. He’s getting great work in the gym with Yamaguchi and helping him get ready because he’s also fighting February 19րդ in Melrose. Once Connor takes care of Pitto, who is a very tough fighter, it’ll be onto bigger and better things. “The Kid” has star potential and is ready to show the world he’s a legitimate world class fighter.”

Webster Town Hall is going to be electric

Pagan and Marrero will be fighting once again for the vacant New England Super Lightweight Championship in the Dec.18րդ 6-կլոր գլխավոր իրադարձությունը.

The original Pagan-Marrero was non-stop, action-packed throw-down which the judges’ scored 58-56 in favor or Pagan, 55-59 for Marrero, իսկ 57-57. The scoring was originally announced as a split-decision win for Marrero but, in retrospect, both fighters have taken the emotional outcome changes in stride. Some fuel, չնայած, has been poured on the fire, largely through social media.

“When the fight was done,” Pagan commented, “as a fighter, you know if your fight was won, lost or very close. It was a little close, but that I won the fight. When the decision was announced that he had won, I closed my eyes, because it reminded me of my amateur career. Մի քանի մենամարտերում միանշանակ հաղթել եմ, Ես գերակշռում էի, բայց ես չեմ ստացել որոշումը. Ամեն ինչ կարող է պատահել, երբ դա անցնում է դատավորների ձեռքում. Մրցավարները չտեսան, որ ես հաղթեցի, լավ, բայց հետո փոխեցին որոշումը. Կարծում էի, որ նրանք ճիշտ են հասկացել, և ես հաղթել եմ, բայց հայտարարվեց ոչ-ոքի. Այն է, թե ինչ է, լավ, քանի որ դատավորների գործն այնքան էլ հեշտ չէ, որքան մարդիկ կարծում են. Նրանք տեսան վերելքներ և վայրէջքներ և ունեցան ոչ-ոքի.

«Ես մտածում էի, ահա մենք նորից գնում ենք, երբ հայտարարվեց ոչ-ոքի,», - ասաց Մարերոն. "Ինչ - ինչ պատճառներով, Ամեն անգամ, երբ ես մենամարտում եմ Մասաչուսեթսում, դա միշտ հակասական է. Երջանկությունից ծնկի էի իջել, և երբ երկրորդ հայտարարությունն արվեց, Ես կարծում էի, որ նրանք նրան են տալիս հաղթանակը. Ոչ-ոքի? Ես չեմ տխրում, բայց զարմացած էի, քանի որ զգում էի, որ հաղթել եմ. Ես գնացի տուն՝ մտածելով, որ ոչ-ոքի է, ոչ կորուստ, և հուսով ենք, որ մենք կունենանք ռեւանշ. Եվ մենք անում ենք դեկտեմբեր 18րդ

Հեթանոս ընդդեմ. Մարերոն օրինակ է այն բանի, որ մեծ մենամարտ անցկացնելու համար երկու մեծ մարտիկի կարիք չկա. Նրանք հավասարապես համընկնում են, և երկու մարտիկներն էլ ահռելի սիրտ ունեն.

«Մարդիկ հարցնում էին, թե ուզում եմ ռեւանշ մենամարտ, ես ասացի, այո, Ես մտածում եմ դրա մասին, քանի որ ոչ-ոքի էր,», - առաջարկեց հեթանոսը. «Ես չէի պատրաստվում ոչ ասել, եթե դա առաջարկվեր, բայց թիվ. 1 Ես նրա հետ մենամարտելու պատճառը Նյու Անգլիայի առաջնությունն է. Քանի դեռ ես պայքարում էի նրա հետ տիտղոսի համար, Ես կողմ էի դրան, քանի որ ցանկանում եմ պայքարել գոտու համար, և դա է իմ նպատակը. Դա իմ զգացումն էր սկզբում, but things changed a little, because he changed. I don’t know what people told him, I’m not some kid and I had a lot of respect for him. But then he started texting me. I don’t know if it was to spice up this fight, but he crossed the line. He said a lot he shouldn’t have said. I’ always humble and respect all fighters because they’re risking their lives. I don’t know why he said what he did, but he’s given me even more motivation. I want that belt! I’m training double to beat him and shut his month. I still have some respect for him, but it’s not the same.

“I made a lot of mistakes in our first fight and made the fight much harder than it was supposed to be. I’ve been working on adjustment and, hopefully, թ. դեկտեմբերի 18րդ it will pay-off.”

“I always have a little room for improvement after a fight, and we saw some things I needed to improve for the rematch,” Marrero explained. “I’m more mentally prepared to do things and will be much smarter in the ring. Ֆիզիկապես, I’m a lot stronger and sharper. The key for me is being mentally prepared and sharper. Նրա (Pagan’s) opponent for his last fight fell out and my manager, Nate Torres, contacted me saying I had been offered an opportunity to fight Pagan. Without hesitation, Ես ասացի, այո. I’m always in the gym and ready to fight. I came in 2-pounds under and I’m on weight right now for this fight. The only thing I had to prepare for is he’s a southpaw.

“We had a great fight. He probably thinks he won a few rounds, I felt I won the fight. He missed more and I connected with the cleaner punches the judges could see. In the third or fourth round, I hurt him with a body shot. He folded and I hit him with another good shot.”

Ի co-featured միջոցառման, Danbury (CT) super lightweight Omar “The Beast” Bordoy (11-1, 3 Նոկաուտով) faces an opponent to be determined in the 6-round match.

Ohan, fighting out of Holbrook (MA), will be in his first scheduled 10-round bout against Mexican challenger Israel “Filipino Tigre” Rojas (14-24, 5 Նոկաուտով) in a super lightweight, non-title fight.

“Ten rounds means a lot to me,” Ohan said. “It’s something I’ve watched my entire life because all legends fought 10-rounders. This is special for me. I’m ready to go and I will outclass my opponent.”

Ohan captured the vacant New England title last November, when he won an 8-round unanimous decision over Ryan Dibartolomeo, followed by a successful title defense in his last fight in June, when challenger Tyrone Luckey retired after the five rounds.

The New England title is a stepping-stone and next year I feel like I can collect more title belts next year,” he added. “I signed with Chris (Traietti, president of Granite Chin Promotions) because I want to be in big fights. Ես չեմ կարող սպասել, այս պայքարում, I’m already in top shape. Two guys I recently defeated recently knocked out undefeated opponents, (Eric) Palmer (WSD6 vs. 8-0-1 Ruddicus Livsey) and Luckey (WKO1 and WKO6 vs. 7-0-1 Eduardo Aguilar).«

A former 2-time Southern New England Golden Gloves champion, the now 27-year-old Ohan is the son of a former prizefighter, middleweight Mike Ohan (14-6-2, 11 KOs – 1983-95), who sparred “Marvelous” Marvin Hagler. Ohan, Jr’s grandfather on his mother’s side also boxed.

“I always looked up to my father as a fighter,” Ohan., Jr. mentioned, “but he didn’t want me to box. I started late and didn’t go to the gym until I was 16 to help stay out of trouble. My father’s supportive and he goes to my fights. I fell in love with boxing right away and I feel even stronger about it today.”

Ohan’s birth name is Ohanian, but he is Irish. “It’s in my blood,” he explained. “It goes back to the old bare-knuckle days. My father is Irish on his mother’s side, Armenian on his father’s. My grandmother is Irish on both sides. Այնքան, I have a lot of Irish in me from my parents.”
