VALDEZ VS. RAMIREZ – ARIZONA’S FIRST SEVEN-ROUND FIGHT


Bout headlines Guerra De Gallos at Casino Del Sol

Tucson, LA – Ottobre. 23 – When Tucson’s Jensen Ramirez (6-2-3, 1KO) squares off with NogalesThomas Valdez (16-4-2, 6KO) at the Casino Del Sol’s AVA Amphitheater, iot will be the first seven-round bout in Arizona’s history. The featherweight bout headlines the Nov. 17 evento, dubbed Guerra De Gallos.

 

 

 

Raging Babe’s Michelle Rosado had to think outside the box when negotiating the card’s main event. One camp wanted an eight-round fight and one wanted a six. Rosa, consulting with her mentor, Hall-of-Fame Promoter J Russell Peltz, lamented the potential loss of a solid, local main event. Peltz had a solution. “Why not meet in the middle and make it seven rounds?” Rosado was skeptical. “I told him to get outta here,” Rosado said. “I was laughing, but Peltz wasn’t joking. School was in session.

 

 

 

There was a precedent. Peltz told the story ofThe Long-Haired Boxer” Edwin “Chu ChuMalave vs. Harold Weston, Jr. in a welterweight bout that took place in August of 1971 at New York’s Madison Square Garden. Malave wanted the bout to be eight rounds, and Weston wanted 10. The New York State Athletic Commission proposed that the bout be nine rounds. Malave went on to win a split decision, with two judges scoring the fight 5-4 in his favor, and the third scoring it 5-4 for Weston.

 

 

 

Rosado had her fight.

 

 

 

I bought right into it when Russell told me about the Malave-Weston bout,” lei disse. “I knew we had a good fight, and there was something special about having a seven-round main event.Both Ramirez and Valdez’s teams agreed, and the Pascua Yacqui Commission sanctioned the seven-round bout. il nov. 17, Tucson boxing fans will see Arizona’s first seven-round bout between two localgallos.

 

 

 

Raging Babe will host a press conference this Thursday, Ottobre 25 at Casino Del Sol’s Paradiso Lounge at 2 p.m. The presser will be open to the public and will include a tribute to promoter Don Chargin.

RAGING BABE RETURNS TO CASINO DEL SOL WITH GUERRA DE GALLOS: JENSEN RAMIREZ VS. TOMAS VALDEZ

Alfonso Olvera Returns, Chris Gonzalez faces Judas Estrada

 

Tucson, Arizona – Ottobre 16, 2018 – On the heels of her sold out July 17th event at the award-winning Casino Del Sol Resort & Casinò, Michelle Rosado’s Raging Babe returns to the same venue on Saturday, 17 novembre, when super featherweights Jensen Ramirez of Tucson, and Thomas Valdez of Nogales collide in the main event, outdoors at the AVA Amphitheater. Tucson’s Alfonso Olvera returns ahead of his anticipated rematch of his sensational bout with Wilberth Lopez on July’s card, and Tucson’s Christopher Gonzalez faces NogalesJudas Estrada in a four-round welterweight contest.

 

 

 

Main event fighters Jensen Ramirez (6-2-3, 1KO) and Thomas Valdez (16-4-2, 6KO), have both called Tucson home, but the similarities between the two end there.

 

 

 

Ramirez, 26, is an award-winning tattoo artist when he is not fighting. He defeated Sierra Vista’s Jesus Arevalo at Raging Babe’s July event, after a two-year layoff, earning a 6-round majority decision over the often-avoided Arevalo. If his bout with Arevalo was about redemption, his upcoming bout with Valdez is about showing Tucson, and all of Arizona, that he belongs in the mix with the top super featherweights in the state.

 

 

 

Valdez, 29, last fought December 1, 2017, when he scored a wide unanimous decision in an 8-round bout versus a far more experienced Daniel Valenzuela of Mexico. A hand injury has kept him on the shelf. Coming from a fighting family, Valdez is trained and managed by his uncle, Oscar Valdez, Sr., who also happens to be the father of WBO Featherweight Champion Oscar Valdez, Jr. Thomas Valdez will be fighting in Arizona for the first time since a 2013 six-round decision loss to undefeated prospect Victor Castro, di Phoenix, Arizona.

 

 

Both Valdez and Ramirez will walk into the ring on November 17th with something to proveto Tucson boxing fans, and to themselves.

 

 

 

Tucson favorite Alfonso Olvera (10-5-1, 4KO) will make his return on November 17. Olvera has his sights set on an eventual rematch with Wilberth Lopez (23-9,15KO), but cannot afford to stumble along the way. The two thrilled the Guerro De Gallo crowd in the card’s main event in July, ending in a split decision that favored Lopez. The decision pleased some and disappointed others in the sold out crowd, and since the bout, both camps and fans who were in attendance that night have called for a rematch. Da parte sua, Olvera has no intentions of looking past his November 17th opponent.

 

 

The Gonzalez-Estrada contest features two local prospects who had the fans on their feet during their separate July bouts at Guerra De Gallos. Strada (1-1, 1 KO) lost that night to Jose Barrera, di Phoenix, but the split decision had the crowd in an uproar. Gonzalez also was in a tight one that night, earning a majority decision over Sergio Lopez.

 

 

 

When fighters fightwhen local fighters fight, and aren’t afraid to step into the ring with a friend, former sparring partner or a tough guy, you’re going to get great fights,” said Raging Babe President and Promoter Michelle Rosado. “That’s what I’m about and that’s what my events are about. Boxing is at its best when the fights are 50-50 combattimenti, and when fans get their money’s worth, and they definitely did that on July card. This event is no different. Hats off to these guys for all being willing to step up and fight in their hometowns. Tucson, if you’re thirsty for good, live boxing, get ready for a tall drink of water on November 17th.

 

 

 

Heavyweight Edgar Medina makes his professional debut, Manny Guajardo, Nick Rhoads, and Mike Martinez return, and Arturo Resendiz makes his US debut.

 

 

 

Tickets for Guerra De Gallos start at $25, and go on sale Thursday, Ottobre 18 a 10:00 a.m. Tickets may be purchased at the Casino Del Sol gift shop, online www.casinodelsol.com, o chiamando 520-333-5150.

 

Alfonso Olvera vs. Wilberth Lopez HeadlineGuerra De Gallos

Road Warriors Battle for Hometown Supremacy

TUCSON, Ariz. (Giugno 12, 2018) – Michelle Rosado’s Raging Babe has built a reputation for quality, sold out events across the country, and she returns to Tucson’s Casino Del Sol su Saturday evening, Luglio 21, with Guerra De Gallos, a fight card that is quickly living up to its name.

 

 

 

The scheduled eight-round main event features a hometown battle between two fighters who have earned their stripes fighting tough competition on the road. After competing in other fightersbackyards and dealing with their opponentshome crowds and officials, welterweights giovani Alfonso Olvera (10-4-1, 4 KO) e Wilberth Lopez (21-9, 15 KO) will have a chance to showcase their incredible tenacity and talent in front of their own families, friends and Tucson fans.

 

 

 

Olvera, who has had trouble finding opponents, has faced top competition since turning pro. In his second fight, he went the distance with Ivan Baranchyk, currently unbeaten at 19-0. Olvera’s trail of upsets includes a 2005 unanimous decision over previously unbeaten Ryan “Cowboy” Karl and another over Chicago’s Genaro Mendez.

 

 

 

Lopez, who knocked out Phoenix’s Keenan Carbajal in his professional debut in 2013, has gone on to fight stiff competition across the country. He was the first to take World Super Bantamweight Champion Isaac Dogboe the distance when they met in 2014. Three years later, Lopez upset Jose Roman (24-2-1, 16 KO), via unanimous decision in Roman’s backyard. Lopez’s southpaw style and reach kept Roman at bay and earned him the win.

 

 

 

This is a fight between two highly skilled, local fighters who have never had the benefit of hand-picked opponents and hometown decisions,” detto Rosado. “This fight will be one of the best Arizona has seen in years. I’m excited to give Tucson fans what could be Fight of the Year, and to bring back the pride that comes with competing to be the best in the state.

 

 

 

The card is stacked with Tucson talent. Junior leggero Jensen Ramirez (5-2-3, 1 KO) makes returns against Jesus Arevalo (2-3), and Tucson junior welterweight Christopher Gonzalez (2-0) will make his return to the Old Pueblo after securing his second win in Phoenix earlier this year. Mike Martinez, Emmanuel Guajardo, Nicholas Rhoads, Judas Estrada e Breenan Macias round out the eight-bout card.

 

 

 

Casino Del Sol has hosted boxing events since 2003, and has become a premier destination for boxing in Southern Arizona. Fernando Vargas, Mia St. John and Yori Boy Campas are just a few boxing legends to have graced the casino’s ring. “We are excited to bring boxing back to Tucson once again,” said Kimberly Van Amburg, CEO of Casino Del Sol. “Our goal is always to provide the best entertainment in Southern Arizona, and Guerra De Gallos will definitely deliver.

RAGING BABE PRESENTS THURSDAY NIGHT FIGHTS AT THE ARMORY: THE RETURN

Rosado returns to finish what she started in the Bull City
PER IL RILASCIO IMMEDIATO

DURHAM, NORTH CAROLINAAgosto 15, 2017 -This time last year, “Raging Babe” Michelle Rosado touched down in Raleigh for the first time, determined to help a local boxing promoter make his mark in North Carolina. Rosado and her company, Raging Babe, did just that, and have now emerged as North Carolina’s newest boxing promoter. Su October 19th, Raging Babe promotes its own event at the Durham Armory, aptly named The Return. The card will feature some of the best young talent from across North Carolina in competitive fights, matched by Hall of Fame Matchmaker and mentor to Rosado, Russell Peltz.

With a combined 50+ years of experience in the rough and tumble world of boxing, Rosado and Peltz brought a well-tested formula to Wilson in their first North Carolina endeavor in February. The sell-out event was followed up by the debut of Giovedi Night Fights in Durham. Throwing a boxing event on aGiovedi night was a hard sell for Rosado. “I had to really work on the promoter to get them to give Giovedi Night Fights a shot. Durham is a fight town. I knew that if we threw a solid, quality card, with good fights, that fans would come out on a Giovedi notte, and they did.When planning The Return, Rosado opted to bring back Giovedi Night Fights, and return to the Durham Armory.

After two wildly successful events, followed by a dramatic falling out with the now defunct promotional company, Rosado was reluctant to return to the Tar Heel State. She realized, anche se, after so many months of putting her sweat and passion into boxing in North Carolina, she owed to herself and the gyms, fighters and fans she met there to return, and fulfill the commitments she made to them to deliver quality fights, while treating the fighters ethically and with respect.

It took a while to get to know the personalities, the gyms, the fighters and their stories,” detto Rosado. “For a long time, North Carolina was a place that managers and promoters brought their fighters to rack up wins. The fighters here deserve so much more than that, as do the fans. I made it a point to let everyone I met in North Carolina know that we were here to work on changing that.

In planning The Return, Rosado has felt that she could fully put her passions and ideas to work for North Carolina boxing. “I’m excited for the opportunity to do it my way,” detto Rosado, who has put on events in Phoenix, Tucson, Philadelphia and Danbury, Connecticut. “I’m happy to work with any fighter that wants to step up and fight. There are no easy touches on my cards. We want to pack the venue and give fans a night to remember. Russell is putting together a phenomenal fight card. The main and co-main events are going to have people so excitedI get goosebumps thinking about it. These guys are really stepping up to give the fans some of the best fights Durham has seen in a while. I wasn’t even sure we could put these fights together, and all of these fighters signed on the dotted line with no hesitation. They are daring to be great, and putting their undefeated records on the line, and I can’t wait to formally announce what we’ve been working on these last few weeks.

Rosado is also planning to work with the fighters to help the community in and around Durham. “I want to bring positivity to Durham, and to North Carolina boxing. These guys are given a stage to showcase their talent, and we want to use that platform to give back to the community in any way we can.

The complete fight card will be announced August 24th, and tickets for The Return go on sale that morning. Tickets can be purchased through the fighters or at ragingbabe.com.

RAGING BABE BRUNCH TORNA IL 16 SETTEMBRE; PROCEDE A BENEFICIO DELLA FONDAZIONE PRICHARD COLON

LAS VEGAS – Luglio 24, 2017Settembre, 16th è un grande giorno per la boxe a Las Vegas, con Saul “Canelo” Alvarez di fronte a Gennady “GGG” Golovkin in una gara imperdibile per il re della divisione dei pesi medi. Mentre l'élite della boxe scende sulla Strip di Las Vegas, i Raging Babes of Boxing si riuniranno ancora una volta in rete, ridere e legare durante il brunch.

L'evento di quest'anno si terrà presso il Border Grill di Mandalay Bay, con vista sulla spiaggia di Mandalay Bay, e le mimose illimitate che i partecipanti al brunch si aspettano in quattro anni di eventi Raging Babe. Ancora più importante, i partecipanti avranno l'opportunità di incontrare e fare rete con alcuni dei massimi dirigenti della boxe, i più importanti attori dietro le quinte e le donne ispiratrici di tutto il settore.

L'evento continua a crescere, con oltre 50 donne presenti all'ultimo brunch “New York, New York,” in 2016, e la fondatrice di Raging Babe Michelle Rosado si aspetta il tutto esaurito per il brunch di settembre. Rosado ha deciso “Shine Bright” per il tema dell'evento. “Chi brilla di più delle donne della boxe,” detto Rosado. “Questo evento è diventato molto più di un gruppo di donne che condividono un pasto. Esperienze, talenti e storie di crepacuore e trionfo vengono condivisi in questi eventi. Significano molto per le donne che lavorano instancabilmente per far progredire questo nostro sport.”

Come hanno fatto gli eventi passati, Shine Bright onorerà una delle donne più influenti della boxe con il Luminary Award. “Non vedo l'ora di condividere la storia del nostro premiato,” detto Rosado, chi ha indicato il vincitore del premio sarebbe stato annunciato presto.
Shine Bright andrà a beneficio di una causa vicina al cuore di Rosado – il recupero del pugile Prichard Colon. “Prichard ha fatto passi da gigante nella sua guarigione, ma resta il fatto che la terapia di cui ha bisogno, le spese mediche, il sostegno di cui ha bisogno la sua famiglia, non finisce. La sua famiglia ha sacrificato tutto per aiutarlo a stare meglio, e ha sacrificato tutto per intrattenerci sul ring.” Rosa, insieme alla manager di boxe e imprenditrice Livvy Cunningham, ha creato il gruppo Facebook, “Pregare 4 Prichard,” che è stato un luogo in cui la famiglia Colon ha trovato incoraggiamento e supporto tramite messaggi di appassionati di boxe di tutto il mondo. Una percentuale dei proventi di Shine Bright andrà a beneficio della Prichard Colon Foundation, che finanzia i pesanti premi assicurativi mensili che sono essenziali per il recupero di Colon.

RASHEED WALLACE, RAGING BABE, AND FOR ALMA HOME TEAM UP TO SHINE THE SPOTLIGHT ONBOXING MOMS

North Carolina’s Boxing Moms to Wine and Dine questa Domenicafor Bonding and Laughs
PER IL RILASCIO IMMEDIATO

Durham, Carolina del Nord – Aprile 20, 2017During nearly every televised fight, and in every montage during pre-fight documentaries on cable networks, there is a consistent figure cheering ringside, wiping tears at her son’s victory or defeat, or clawing her way to the ring while her baby lays sprawled on the canvas. Behind so many of today’s successful and not-so-successful fighters is a mother. Whether or not she wasn’t always present, or was a doting mother, or a major motivator who spent days, weeks and months in the gym, these women played a significant role in the development of these fighters as both warriors within the ring, and men outside the ring.

It has long been a dream of “Raging Babe” Michelle Rosado to tell these women’s storiesTo bring them together to share their struggles and triumphs, and add a new dimension to the long-told stories of these young men, who have selected the hurt game as their chosen professions.

With the help of former Tarheel and NBA Veteran Rasheed Wallace, Rosado will finally see her passion project come to fruition. The two crossed paths when they were introduced by a mutual friend from Philadelphia. Wallace was an avid boxing fan, and had a desire to be involved in North Carolina’s active boxing scene. Rosado had just begun work with North Carolina-based Top Catz Boxing. Through several meetings, their passions intermingled, and Rosado’s passion project became Wallace’s.

The duo plans a special dinner for North Carolina’s Boxing Moms questa Domenica at For Alma Home in Durham. Many of the women attending have sons that will be fighting days later at Top Catz Boxing’s Giovedi Night Fights at the Armory. Plans for the dinner include pampering and gifts courtesy of For Alma Home, along with networking and bonding.

This has been a dream for me for yearshaving the opportunity to recognize these strong women, these Raging Babes, and share their stories, and their struggles,” detto Rosado. “I’m so grateful to Rasheed Wallace, who immediately saw the value and the vision in bringing these women’s stories to light. Non vedo l'ora di Domenica di evento, and what the future brings.

Wallace, whose own mother was instrumental in his personal development, was eager to be a part of the project. “I have long been a boxing fan, and am excited to have an opportunity to recognize these mothers. I hadn’t actually thought about what mothers go through, seeing their sons in the ring, combattente, vincente, or being knocked out. It will be an honor to share their views, and their stories.

Both Rosado and Wallace are eager to see where Boxing Moms takes them, but the journey begins questa Domenica in North Carolina, where mothers of boxers fighting on next week’s Thursday Night Fights at the Armory card gather to forge new friendships, and share their triumphs and challenges.

Post brunch, the time had come to honor one of boxing’s trailblazers, Kathy Duva, who was presented the Raging Babe Luminary Award. Among those who shared stories of Duva’s boxing growth and dominance was Main Events’ Vice Presidente delle Operazioni, Joleen Mizzone, who has worked side-by-side with Duva for 19 anni. Although she couldn’t attend in person due to being in California with three of Main Events’ combattenti, Mizzone had colorful, but moving words for her friend and colleague. “Kathy Duva has been through a lot in her life. I have seen her overcome so much in these past 19 anni. I remember thinking to myself, “Wow she is one of the strongest people I know!” She has inspired me to be the person I am in this business. Her morals and eye for this business are [espletivo] extraordinary.
One of the secrets to happiness is the innocent enjoyment of simple things,” said first-time brunch attendee and former NYSAC Chairwoman Melvina Lathan as she described the event. “Con questo in mente, how wonderful to share a moment in time with a group of women, dining,, conversing, and laughing, all the while emanating beauty, potere, grace and joy, without even trying.

This was another inspiring event in one of the greatest cities in the world,” said Rosado of the brunch. “There was so much talent, so much heart, so much passion, and so much boxing knowledge contained in these four walls. There were lovers, combattenti, survivors, and I sincerely hope that the connections they made on that day result in amazing business collaborations and lifelong friendships.

NEW YORK – Maggio 24, 2016 – The weekend of June 11th, boxing’s most influential women will gather for brunch in the Big Apple for the 7th Raging Babe event of its kind, dubbed New York, New York. Attendees will include promoters, network executives, public relations representatives, arbitri, fighters and others, and come from diverse backgrounds, cultures and levels of experience. Women who have attended Raging Babe events have networked, forged business and personal relationships and have been inspired by the stories of success and persistence shared by the hundreds of attendees over the past few years. There may be no woman that better personifies a story of success and persistence than Kathy Duva, who will be honored with the Raging Babe Luminary Award at the brunch.

Duva, the CEO of Main Events, and a mother of three, has been involved with boxing for nearly forty years, entering the business while in college with her then boyfriend Dan Duva. The Duvas teamed up to promote some of boxing’s top talent over the years under the Main Events banner, including Evander Holyfield, Lennox Lewis, Pernell Whitacker, Arturo Gatti and Fernando Vargas, all while cultivating powerful relationships with HBO and other networks. Kathy continued her husband’s legacy after his passing in 1996, becoming one of the most recognized figures in boxing. Più di recente, Duva and Main Events have developed one of boxing’s most avoided superstars in Sergey Kovalev.

Kathy Duva is the perfect honoree for our first New York City Brunch,” said Raging Babe founder and namesake Michelle Rosado. “Boxe, like the ‘Concrete Jungle,’ has so many hard edges, and can be tough to navigatebut like New York City, it is full of opportunity for the right type of person, and Kathy Duva is that kind of person. She’s a headstrong, smart and persistent woman, who has an uncanny ability to endear people to her while not taking any gruff from anyone. It’s our honor to recognize her at the brunch.

Past Raging Babe event honorees have included theFirst Lady of BoxingJackie Kallen, Relazioni Pubbliche asso Kelly Swanson, TV apripista Claudia Trejo, heart transplant recipient Kennedy Cunningham, Nevada Boxing Hall of Fame Chief Operating Officer Michelle Corrales-Lewis, and Golden Boy’s Monica Sears. “It’s a privilege to stand in a room with women of this caliber,” detto Rosado. “The Raging Babe Brunch started as a conceptsomething we might try to do yearly, but it’s become such a powerful and valuable event for attendees, we’re growing and doing more than one event per year. We’re able to do this because of the women of boxing that continue to support the event, e naturalmente, thanks to our event partners.
The East Coast is well overdue for a Raging Babe Brunch, and I’m so pleased to be able to work with our partners to bring the event to New York City.
