SALEM, Маса. (Октомври 30, 2021) – Colombian Welterweight Champion Jeovanis “Meque”Barraza (22-1, 15 Нокаута) defeated Argentinian southpaw Jorge “Tomatito” Martin Garcia (13-7-1, 6 Нокаута) by way of an 8-round unanimous decision to capture the vacant ABF Continental Americas super welterweight title in the headliner on last night’s “Down & Dirty” card, presented by Reyes Boxing Club at Melrose Memorial Hall in Melrose, Massachusetts.

“Down & Dirty,” New England’s only ongoing pro boxing series, streamed live and exclusively onthrowdownsports.com.

“A effort by all the fighters, B delivery by the promotional team, because we started an hour late,” promoter Michael Reyes commented. “The main event was wonderful, 8 hard fought rounds for a title. Garcia has one helluva heart. Той е шампион. ‘Meque’ did his job. He saw some things he needs to work on that we’ve talked about in the gym. Общо, it was a great experience.”

Colombia and Argentina are bitter archrivals in sports like a South American version, albeit in boxing, of the Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees.

Both main event fighters made their United States debuts. The more skilled Barraza was tested by the tough, determined Garcia, but Barraza’s blistering body shots consistently set up his powerful head shots.

В шестия кръг, Barraza’s constant pressure and effective combinations eventually wore down a tiring Garcia, who landed on the canvas twice, but he wouldn’t stay down. The seventh round was batting practice for Barraza, who hit Garcia with everything but the kitchen sink. Despite a vicious body assault that brought Garcia to his knees, he rose once again and somehow survived until the very end.

“It was a really good fight,” Barraza said after his fight. "Той (Garcia) was tougher than I thought he would be. The big news is that I’m fighting here in the United States for the first time and leaving with a title belt.”

Barraza, who pitched a near shutout (80-69, 80-69, 79-70), collected another title belt and, по-важно, came out of the fight unscathed and sharp for his Nov. 13тата showdown in Anaheim (КАТО) with Alexis Rocha (17-1, 11 Нокаута) in the co-feature on a DAZN show, presented by Golden Boy Promotions, and headlined by Jamie Munguia vs. Gabriel Rosato.

“I don’t have to change a thing,” Barraza noted. “I can continue my training for this fight, especially sparring, because I can continue with the same guys I sparred for this fight.”

В съвместно черта събитието, ABF Atlantic Middleweight Champion Anthony “Big Daddy” Hines (7-0, 4 Нокаута) successfully made his first defense of the title he captured this past June, against Fidel Monterrosa Munoz (39-26-1, 31 Нокаута), the former Colombian Light Heavyweight Champion.

Fighting out of the Boston district of Dorchester, Hines came out jabbing and moving laterally during the first two rounds against the Colombian knockout artist, picking up the pace in the third, in which Hines floored Munoz with a strong right. Munoz claimed he was illegally hit behind his head in the fourth and the fight was temporarily halted for the doctor to check him out. The action continued after a couple of minutes. The fight was delayed in the fifth round due to an accidental head butt that sent Munoz to the deck and Hines suffering the most damage in what was a chippy fight.

Anthony Hines remained undefeated and retained his ABF Atlantic title belt

Also fighting out of Dorchester, lightweight Jonathan DePina (5-1, 4 Нокаута) wore down a gutsy Stacey Anderson (0-8), eventually putting him away in the third round, DePina cracked his opponent with a counter right for the initial knockdown. Moments later it was all she wrote for Anderson, who was trapped in a neutral corner, and battered until he went down for good.

Popular Lowell (MA) fighter Gabriel “Menace” Morales (3-0, 2 Нокаута), a carpenter by trade, displayed everything in his toolbox to the delight of his loud, enthusiastic fanbase, stopping journeyman Pablo DeSouza (0-24) във втория кръг. A natural lightweight, Morales cutdown welterweight DeSouza, first with a left hook in the second, soon followed by a right sending him to the mat once again. DeSouza stood before the referee’s count hit 10, but he was clearly unable to continue.

Undefeated Dominican Republic lightweight prospect Alejandro “El Abusador” Paulino (4-0, 4 Нокаута), fighting out of New London (CT), outclassed a much more experienced fighter in Italy native Christian “El Ninja” Danilo Guido (8-20, 6 Нокаута). Paulino floored Guido at the end of round one and closed the show in the second, decking Guido three more times, the last with a perfectly executed uppercut with time running out for a technical knockout.

Dallas heavyweight Vercell Webster (2-4-1, 2 Нокаута) upset previously Dennis Ventura (4-1, 3 Нокаута) чрез a 4тата-кръг технически нокаут. Webster dropped Ventura with a straight right to the temple in the first round and a game Ventura never really recovered. The same shot to the head, landed in the same (red) corner, decked Ventura again. He beat the count, but referee Melissa Kelly didn’t like the way Ventura responded, and she stopped the fight.

Opening the action, Providence heavyweight Sean Bey improved to 3-0 (3 Нокаута) when pro-debuting Brandon Grundy was severely handicapped by right hand injury suffered midway through the opening round. After the ring doctor examined him, the fight continued briefly as Bey unloaded a series of unanswered punches on a trapped on the ropes Grundy, until referee Kevin Hope waved off the fight at the 2:24 марка на първи кръг.

Reyes Boxing’s “Down & Dirty” pro boxing series to debut in Massachusetts This Friday night streaming live on PPV

Michael Reyes.jpg
SALEM, Маса. (Октомври 25, 2021) — This past August in Portland, Maine, Reyes Boxing launched “Down & Dirty,” the only ongoing professional boxing series in New England, and it will make its Massachusetts debut this Friday night (Октомври. 29) at Melrose Memorial Hall in Melrose, Massachusetts.

The second installment of “Down & Dirty,” presented by Reyes Boxing, will be headlined this Friday evening by Colombian Welterweight Champion Jeovanis “Meque” Barraza (22-1, 15 Нокаута) making his United States debut against Jorge “Tomatito” Martin Garcia (13-7-1, 6 Нокаута) in the 8-round main event between for the vacant ABF Continental Americas Super Welterweight Championship.

Reyes was a standout amateur boxer in Massachusetts, finishing with a 60-4 рекорд, when he gave up boxing and enrolled in Norwich University, where he graduated in 2001 majoring in business and economics. He then spent six years as a U.S. Marine in military intelligence. After his military discharge, Reyes became a certified fitness and personal trainer, opening Reyes Boxing Club 2 ½ years ago in Salem, Massachusetts.

“I started managing some fighters I was training,” Reyes explained, “but realized about 1 ½ years ago that I needed to be a promoter to put fighters I trained on cards. ‘Down & Dirty’ is boxing, at least to me, and I wanted to let people know where we are at and what we’re doing.
“I feel New England has a big talent pool, but over the years it has dwindled. But it’s still here! We have boxers here who bring boxing back to where it was when people knew who New England fighters were. Our series is centered around young, talented fighters on the way up. We want to help them step up to the next level by giving them this platform. We’re streaming out shows live and working on a television partner.”
Reyes Boxing’s plan for 2022 is to promote shows in Maine, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Vermont, and Massachusetts.

“We’ve signed some local prospects and some veterans as well,” Reyes added. “I grew up watching Tuesday Night Fights and my dream is for this series to develop over the next few years into a weekly series on a major network.”

Boston lightweight prospect Jonathan Depina (5-1, 3 Нокаута) faces Gonzalo Carlos Deller (9-14, 7 Нокаута) in the 6-round co-featured event for the vacant ABF Mid-Atlantic Lightweight Championship.

ABF Atlantic Middleweight Champion Anthony “Big Daddy” Hines, fighting out of nearby Dorchester (a Boston district) makes his first defense versus challenger Fidel Montero Muñoz, a former Colombian Light Heavyweight Champion, в двубой от 8 кръга.

22-1 Jeovanis “Meque” Barraza to headline “Down & Dirty” International pro boxing event

Letterhead.jpg
SALEM, Маса. (Октомври 20, 2021) — The second installment of “Down & Dirty,” the only ongoing professional boxing series in New England, will be Friday night, Октомври 29тата, at Melrose Memorial Hall in Melrose, Massachusetts.


“Down & Dirty,” presented by Reyes Boxing, will be headlined by an 8-round main event between Jeovanis “Meque” Barraza (22-1, 15 Нокаута) and Jorge “Tomatito” Martin Garcia (13-7-1, 6 Нокаута) for the vacant ABF Continental Americas Super Welterweight Championship.
All the action will be streamed live and exclusively on pay-per-view at HTTPS://throwdownsports.com/programs/reyes-boxing-10-29-21, като се започне от 6:30 p.m. И / 3:30 p.m. PT, за $29.95.


“We have a great, young pool of talent in challenging fights on this show,” Reyes Boxing promoter Michael Reyes said. “Our “Down & Dirty” series going on in New England. This is our first show in Massachusetts. Наш 2022 plan is to have series shows in all six New England states. We have some fighters preparing to advance to the next level of competition, as well as young local fighters gaining invaluable experience.”


The reigning Colombian Welterweight Champion, Barraza’s lone loss as a pro was to then pro-debuting Gabriel Maestre two years ago in Colombia to 2-time Venezuelan Olympian Gabriel Maestre, който сега е 4-0 and the WBA Interim World Welterweight Champion. This will mark Barraza’s first fight outside of his native Colombia.


Garcia, a shifty southpaw, will be fighting outside of his native Argentina for the first time as a prizefighter. He has become a South American gatekeeper in the welterweight division.
Promising Boston lightweight Jonathan Depina (5-1, 3 Нокаута) meets Gonzalo Carlos Dallera (9-14, 7 Нокаута) in the 6-round co-featured event for the vacant ABF Mid-Atlantic Lightweight Championship.

ABF Atlantic Middleweight Champion Anthony “Big Daddy” Hines, fighting out of nearby Dorchester (a Boston district) will take on challenger Fidel Monterrosa Munuz, a former Colombian Light Heavyweight Champion, in an 8-round fight.

Undefeated super featherweight prospect Daniel Bailey shipping up to Boston for first time

Daniel Bailey posed.jpeg
BOSTON (Септември 16, 2021) – Undefeated super featherweight Daniel “G.D.F.E.” Bailey (7-0, 4 Нокаута) е млад, military man who will be in Boston for the first time. Rather than sightseeing, въпреки че, he’s all business as he prepares for his September 25тата fight on “Fight Night On The Charles IIIat Mosley’s On The Charles in the Boston suburb of Dedham, Massachusetts.

Vertex Promotions, which will promoted “Fight Night On The Charles II” on Friday night, Седем. 24, also presents “Fight Night On The Charles at Moseley’s III,” as well as the USA Boxing-sanctioned amateur card, 2021 New England Championships, Saturday afternoon, all at “Mosley’s On The Charles.”

Двор на замък (7-0, 4 Нокаута), who fights out of Miami by way of Tampa (FL), will make his New England debut against an opponent to be finalized in a 4-round bout. A 4-time U.S. Army and 2012 Ringside National champion, Bailey is the cousin of multiple world champion Randall Bailey.

Most would think this Army veteran would try to visit Bunker Hill, Lexington and Concord where the Revolutionary War started, or any of the other many historic attractions for tourists in Boston. Forget that he’s not even attending Friday night’s show, never mind visit the nearby city.

“After the weigh-in (Friday afternoon),” the 25-year-old Bailey said, “I’ll be resting in my room until Saturday. I don’t take anyone lightly. But I am excited to be fighting there for the first time and I’m ready to perform for the crowd. This trip is all business, I’m not on vacation.”

This will mark the active fighter’s sixth fight in 2021, possibly the most for any American fighter during the pandemic. In his last fight this past July in Miami, Bailey won a 4-round unanimous decision against Mike Fowler.

“I’m a man on a mission,” Bailey explained. “I want to end the year with a 10-0, 7 knockouts record. I’ve put pressure on myself because I want to look great while winning. I’m a lot surer of myself as a professional than I was as an amateur. I’m still the same kid I was the first time I walked into the gym at an 11-year-old. I always put in overtime work that I’m not asked to do.”

Saturday night’s card will be headlined by undefeated welterweight prospect Adrian “Tonka” Sosa (11-0, 9 Нокаута) на Лорънс (MA), in an 8-round bout against Danny “Venado” Flores (15-24-1, 8 Нокаута).

Lynn (MA) light heavyweight James Perkins (5-0-1, 4 Нокаута) takes on Trevor Ollison (0-2-1), while pro-debuting Marcus Davidson is matched against fellow Kansan Austin Reed Ward (0-8) in a pair 4-rounders.

Undefeated ABF American West and NBA Continental champion, 23-year-old Albany (NY) welterweight RayJay “The Destroyer” Bermudez (13-0, 10 Нокаута) will headline Friday evening’s show in the 8-round lightweight match versus Uganda-native Philip “The Hunter” Adyaka (7-15, 4 Нокаута), who is fighting out of Saint Paul, Minnesota.

Боксът спаси живота на двудивизионния световен шампион "Ел Гало" Хосе Антонио Ривера

Колорадо Спрингс, Скут. (Юни 4, 2020) - Както много боксьори, две разделение световен шампион "El Gallo" Хосе Антонио Ривера кредитира бокса за спасяването на живота му.

„Абсолютно,Ривера се съгласи. „След като майка ми почина, когато аз бях 10 възраст, Отказах се от живота и вземането на решения отразява това: да се мотаете с грешна тълпа, включително членове на бандата, консумация на алкохол на възраст между 10 и 15. Определено вървях в грешната посока.

„Никога не съм мислил, че имам бъдеще, докато не започнах да се бокс. Трудно е да се каже какво бих правил, ако никога не бях боксирал, но между другото живеех, Вероятно вече щях да съм в затвора или мъртъв. "

Роден във Филаделфия, Ривера е живял в Пуерто Рико и Спрингфийлд, MA, преди той да се премести в Уорчестър, MA, където срещна човек, който помогна да промени живота му, Carlos Garcia, който отговаряше за специална програма по бокс в Worcester Boys & Girls Club.

Ривера беше започнал да се боксира на възраст от 14 ½ в мазе с приятеля си, Феликс Лопес.  Беше се влюбил в бокса, след като го гледашеRoberto Duran разстроен„Захар“ Рей Леонард в първата им битка. Младият американец от Пуерто Рико специално използва своя любителски бокс опит, за да се подготви за професионалните редици. Гарсия, който е в Националната зала на славата на златните ръкавици, постави го в мач за начинаещи само след една аматьорска битка, за да изведе Ривера на бързата писта, защото разбираше, че Ривера мечтае да стане световен шампион като професионалист. Ривера завърши с 35-15 любителски запис, подчертано с представяне с бронзов медал на PAL Nationals.

„Никога не съм имал големи аматьорски стремежи, но, разбира се, Исках да спечеля всяка битка, в която се състезавах,- каза Ривера. „Веднъж не се класирах за олимпийските изпитания, моят план беше да стана професионалист. Не знаех доколко аматьорите ще ме подготвят за успешен професионален боксьор. Радвам се, че слушах моите треньори, иначе щях да стана професионалист по-рано, защото щях да се разочаровам от политиката на аматьорите. Мразех да губя, но мразех да губя още повече, когато знаех, че е трябвало да спечеля. След три години заедно (с Гарсия) в аматьорите и натрупване на богат опит от пътуване из цяла Нова Англия, страната и дори воюване в Канада, Видях всички видове стилове и талантливи боксьори, които ми помогнаха като професионалист. Карлос е като бащина фигура за мен и по време на всички наши тренировки и пътувания, той винаги беше в главата ми, изграждайки ме да стана добър боксьор, но и да ми помогне да стана по-добър човек. "

На November 7, 1992, Ривера направи своя професионален дебют, нокаутираФрансиско Мерцедес във втория кръг. Той продължи да спечели първия си 23 професионални пристъпи, включително титлата в полусредна категория на щата Масачузетс през 1995. Първата му професионална загуба беше от ветерана боец ​​от ФиладелфияУили Уайз (20-3-4), който спечели спорно 10-рундово решение за разделяне в казино Foxwoods Resort в Кънектикът. Ривера беше доказал, че е повече от перспектива при първата си загуба, загуба на близко решение (98-95, 94-97, 94-96) на противник, който разстрои мексиканската иконаЖулио Сезар Чавес (102-3-2) само три години по-късно.

Показва същата устойчивост, която остана с Ривера през цялата му кариера, две битки по-късно Ривера спряЖилберто Флорес в два кръга за превземане на Международната боксова организация (IBO) световно първенство в полусредна категория. Ривера удължи новата си серия от победи до седем, преди да губят двубои. Четири битки по-късно, въпреки че, Ривера регистрира първото си изявление победа в 2001, нокаутираФранки Рандал (55-10-1) в 10тата кръг, за да запази своята Северноамериканска боксова асоциация (Също) корона в първата си защита.

Сега популяризиран от легендарния Дон Кинг, Ривера пътува през Атлантическия океан през септември 2003 до Германия, където малко американци успяха да спечелят. Ривера доказа рано, че има предвид бизнес, отпадане преди непобеденМишел Трабант във втория кръг по пътя към спечелване на решение с мнозинство от 12 кръга за свободната Световна боксова асоциация (WBA).  Неговото управление, обаче, не продължи дълго. В първата си защита, Ривера загуби 12-рундово разделено решение у дома в Уорчестър от претендентаLuis Колазо (24-1)

Ривера се повиши с една категория в тегло за следващата си битка, показвайки устойчивостта, която е основна по време на кариерата му за следващата му битка, също у дома, срещу Световния шампион на WBA за юноши в средна категорияАлександро Гарсия (25-1).

В следващата си битка и първа защита на третата си световна титла, Ривера беше спрян за първи път в професионалната си кариера, от нов шампионТравис Симс (24-0), и след това беше нокаутиран отДаниел Сантос (24-0) в осми кръг от техния елиминатор за титлата в средно тегло на WBA за юноши.

Ривера се пенсионира в 2008 само за да се завърне в 2001, след което се оттегли отново, докато се завърна за две битки в Уорчестър, за да завърши професионалната си кариера 50 битки, последното идване на възраст 46.

„Опитът на Хосе в САЩ по бокс го превърна в човек с характер, какъвто е днес, в и извън ринга,"ЗаявиКрис tofflemire, Директор на възпитаниците на САЩ по бокс. „Той пое по-малко пътувания път за световен шампион, и по този начин той показа своята твърдост и постоянство, което го направи чудесен пример за днешните американски боксьори. "

Ривера беше истински работещ световен шампион. Малко световни шампиони също са имали работа на пълен работен ден по време на управлението на титлата си. Ривера използва времето за почивка, както и лични и болнични дни, когато отиде на тренировъчен лагер за някои от големите си битки.

„Винаги съм имал добра работна етика," той обясни. „Когато се преместих в Уорчестър в 16 възраст, Живеех сам: училище, работа, и след това към Момчетата & Клуб за момичета, който да тренира. Запазих същата трудова етика, в която бях 19 когато се превърнах в професионалист. Станах баща в 20, така че осигуряването на семейството ми беше от съществено значение. Въпреки че беше трудно, Знаех, че боксът няма да продължи вечно, и имах късмета да намеря добра работа, работеща за съдебните съдилища на Общността на Масачузетс. Правеше дълги дни, когато тренирах, особено когато се борих или защитавах световното си първенство. В края, въпреки че, запазването на работата ми беше най-доброто решение, което можех да взема за мен и семейството ми. "

Unhappy birthday coming up for undefeated lightweight prospect Jamaine “The Technician” Ortiz

WORCESTER, Маса. (Април 15, 2020) – Even in his wildest dreams, undefeated World Boxing Council (WBC) Световен шампион в лека категория за младежиЯмайн „Техникът“ Ортис (13-0, 7 Нокаута) never could have ever imagined that his 24тата рожден ден, later this month, would fall smack in the middle of a worldwide health pandemic

When he turns 24 април 28тата, Ortiz figured he’d be preparing for training camp with a spring fight date set, likely defending his WBC Youth World title of fighting for a regional belt of some sort.

He certainly didn’t think boxing would be banned around the world, gyms closed by a state mandate, and people wearing facemasks and plastic gloves like they’re in a Sci-Fi movie. И, to boot, his job as a licensed carpenter ended closed shop last Friday. Like everybody else in the Bay State.

Ortiz is basically self-quarantined at home, although he’s still running, обучение, eating well and doing everything else to maintain decent shape. Not elite boxing shape, въпреки че, which simply isn’t possible under these restrictive and trying times.

Instead of sparring, he’s shadow boxing, jumping rope has replaced pad-work with his trainersРоки Гонсалес иCarlos Garcia, and now his living room serves as hisфитнес.

Times have been dramatically altered, наистина, even celebrating birthdays, which Jamaine fully understands and accepts.

“I don’t think my birthday will be any different,” Ortiz said. “I usually spend it alone with my mother and daughter (4-year-old Amira) and this year probably won’t be any different. I won’t be able to get in a whole bunch of sparring rounds that I usually ask for (смях) as presents from some of my friends.“

За щастие, въпреки че, Ortiz was able to fight this past February 28 in his first action in six months, headlining a CES Boxing-promoted card at home in Worcester, Massachusetts, in which he registered an impressive second-round stoppage of Mexican knockout specialist"Лудият" Луис Роналдо Кастило (22-6, 17 Нокаута), бивш шампион в лека категория на WBC FECOMBOX.

Ortiz, presently rated No. 16 от Северна Америка федерация по бокс (NABF), aspires to attend medical school after he hangs up his gloves for good, to become a doctor/researcher. He reads a lot about medicine, especially holistic treatments, and he believes that he may have already had the coronavirus.

“Five weeks before my last fight," той обясни, “I was in the hospital with a temperature of 104.5. Just about everybody I knew was sick, my grandmother had pneumonia. I never really get sick. I had a flu shot for seven years without an issue. I developed a cough, too. I felt like I was going to die. I can’t say with certainty I had coronavirus (there was no test available then), but I feel like I may have had it.”

Ortiz will be ready for the night the ring bell will finally sound again. “I hope to be fighting again in July or August, но, no matter when boxing returns, I’ll be ready to go.

“This is a serious, contagious disease. People should use common sense: wash your hands, stay separated by six feet, and stay at home, especially the elderly and people with respiratory problems. Don’t take any unnecessary risks or panic, either. This isn’t the end of the world!"

Decorated U.S. amateur boxer Angel Gonzalez, Jr. to make pro debut on “Fight Night In Framingham” card

Fighting Life charity event,

 Март 20тата at Sheraton Hotel

FRAMINGHAM, Маса. (Март 4, 2020) – The long-awaited professional debut of decorated amateurAngel Gonzalez, Jr. will take place Friday night, Март 20, on the “Fight Night In Framingham” card, presented by Shearns Boxing Promotions (SBP), at Sheraton Framingham Hotel in Framingham, Massachusetts.

“Fight Night In Framingham”, the first pro boxing event ever in Framingham, is being held for the benefit ofFighting Lifean after-school youth boxing and academic empowerment program, available 100-percent free of charge, to students beginning in elementary school through high school education.

Gonzalez hasn’t fought in three years, since he moved from his native Hartford, CT to Florida. “It took me a while to settle in after I moved to Florida,” Gonzalez explained. “I’ve been going to a gym and now I’m on track and coming back to turn pro. I have the talent for bigger and better things.”

The 26-year-olldf super flyweight had a 45-6 любителски запис, highlighted by three New England Golden Gloves, two Ringside National and 2014 National PAL championships.

The problem for Gonzalez, въпреки че, is finding appropriate opponents, especially where he was a standout amateur. Right now, he’s still without a signed opponent, largely because there are so few 115-pound boxers in America outside of California and the Southwest. “Most super flyweights are from Mexico, Япония, or other foreign countries,” Gonzalez said. “It doesn’t matter to me who I fight. I can slug or box, depending on my opponent. If he’s taller, I’ll fight on the inside; if shorter, I’ll box from the outside. I’ll adjust to my opponent. My best punch is my right. It’s solid and deadly.”

“I’ve offered this fight to guys with 5 към 10 fights and after consideration,” promoterChuck Shearns обясни, “they have declined to fight Angel. These lower weight classes can be hard enough to match, never mind against Angel. What you find is that these smaller guys need to step up their competition earlier than other weight classes, because it’s simply a smaller pool of fighters. We will see what Angel has very early in his career.”

Two unbeaten pro “graduates” of the Fighting Life Boxing Program, super featherweightsТими Ramos (5-0-2, 5 Нокаута) иNelson “Chino” Perez (2-0, 2 Нокаута), ще бъде в действие, съответно,  in the main event and co-featured event.
