Domingo, Abril 29, Jantar indução

Chocolate Kid, James J. Corbett, Jack McAuliffe, Sam Taub, Bob & Murray Goodman head new class

NOVA IORQUE (Abril 9, 2018) – Former world cruiserweight champion al “Gelo” Couve e invicto, Não.; 1 peso pesado “Bebê” Joe Mesi are both extremely honored and grateful to be inducted, juntamente com 21 others in the Class of 2018, into the New York State Boxing Hall of Fame (NYSBHOF).

 

 

 

O sétimo jantar anual indução NYSBHOF será realizada tarde de domingo (12:30-5:30 p.m. E), Abril 29, once again at Russo’s On The Bay in Howard Beach, Nova Iorque.

 

 

Couve (35-16-3, 16 KOs), who is from Rockland County, fought professional between 1989 e 2011, won his first 15 e 27 da sua inicial 28 lutas profissionais. He captured the International Boxing Federation (IBF) Cruiserweight World Championship in 1992, when he won a 12-round unanimous decision over James Warring (14-1). Cole made four successful world title defenses before moving up to heavyweight.

 

 

 

 

 

I knew I’d get in one day and I’m honored to be inducted into the New York State Boxing Hall of Fame, especially with this class because I know a few other fighters going in like Lou Del Valle and Terrance Alli.Cole said. “I was known as a crowd-pleasing, exciting fighter, and people who watched me always knew I’d be in a good fight with good exchanges. I did fight in the shadows of (Microfone) Tyson and Roy (Jones. Jr.).

 

 

 

I fought in the Army with Ray Mercer, stung Evander Holyfield in sparring. My best fight, embora, hurt me the most. I was so sharp against a fighter from Kronk Gym, Vincent Boulware, in my third world title defense that year (1993). Boulware had won six of his last seven fights with four knockouts and I was just becoming a decent name, If I beat him, I was supposed to fight Tommy Hearns or Iran Barkley, who were both moving up to cruiserweight. I had the best fight of my career, but I couldn’t get any of the other world cruiserweight champs to fight me. I only had four fights in the next three years. I moved up to heavyweight because the same guys who I beat when they were my mandatory challenger (Uriah Grant & Nate Miller) worked their way back into the mandatory position.

 

 

 

Cole grew up in Atlantic City, onde ele lutou 18 vezes, and he got to know a casino owner, Donald Trump. “We hung out,” Cole remembered. “Trump invited me to some of his private parties. I never thought he’d be president!”.

 

 

 

MesEu (36-0, 29 KOs) was so popular in Buffalo, he was considered the upstate New York city’s third sports franchise (Bills and Sabres). A top American amateur, “Baby Joe” lutou profissionalmente entre 1997 e 2007, racking up 36 victories without a defeat, yet he never to a world title shot due to a medical issue. Ranked as high at No. 1 pelo Conselho Mundial de Boxe (WBC) Mesi was suspended by the Nevada Commission, after he defeated former world champion Vassily Jirov by way of a 10-round unanimous decision, due to a head injury (brain bleeds).

 

 

 

Mesi was virtually blacklisted in boxing, losing two full years in the ring, while he pursued legal action to get re-licensed, which he eventually was but only by a few commissions. Joe fought seven times after being re-licensed, but he was unfortunately limited in terms of where he could fight, and he never regained the lofty status he had once held. In addition to Jirov, Mesi defeated notables such as Monte Barrett, DeVarryl Williamson and Jorge Luis Gonzalez.

 

 

 

“Este é um grande momento para mim,” Mesi commented about his upcoming induction. “I’m humbled and honored to be going into the same Hall of Fame with the great names that are already there. I’m soaking it all in right now.

 

 

 

I’ve been somewhat removed from boxing, but just the business end. I’m still a big boxing fan and follow the sport. Hoje, I’m married with three kids and sell medical devices for a living. Boxing is still my passion, my love, and since I got the call (that he’s going in the NYSBHOF), I’ve been thinking about all the memories. I’d like to do some more TV announcing in boxing and, maybe someday, get into promoting. I’m really looking forward to the New York State Boxing Hall of Fame induction ceremony.

“Eu intensifiquei as coisas no terceiro,” Rivera explicou. “Ele parou de dar o máximo de socos no terceiro e estava se esquivando. Eu disse que não iria procurar o nocaute, mas, se veio, Eu pegaria. Eu peguei ele com meu uppercut. Eu respeito Cobbs e agradeço a ele por me dar essa oportunidade.”

Invicto N.E. prospecto Omar Bordoy, Jr. Preparado para fazer uma declaração em “Futuro 5 de Nova Inglaterra”

“Futuro 5 de Nova Inglaterra”
Fevereiro. 10 em Worcester, MA

Bordoy, 22 anos, é o exemplo típico de um adolescente volátil que encontrou seu caminho no boxe. Ele era um jogador de futebol do ensino médio que começou a lutar boxe com a idade de 17. Bordoy teve uma carreira amadora abreviada, destacado por sua performance vencedora no New England Golden Gloves como um boxeador iniciante.
“Eu era uma péssima cabeça quando criança,” Bordoy admitiu. “Um dia, meu primo Edgardo, me convidou para sua academia depois do treino de futebol e ele me bateu. Fui derrubado alguns degraus. Entrei no boxe e gostei de assistir Miguel Cotto e Mike Tyson. Eu até tenho algumas das tatuagens de Cotto. Agora, Sou mais boxeador, como um Pernell Whitaker ou Floyd Mayweather, Jr. Eu vim- boxeador para a frente que ainda pode brigar. Estou trabalhando em minha defesa e sinto que fazer ajustes no ringue é o que faço melhor.”
Bordoy, Jr. créditos Team Bordoy — manager A.J. Galante, cabeça trainer Bennie Little, cut-man Luis Marichal, treinador de força e condicionamento Chris Mulfalmi e Dave McDonough – pelo seu sucesso.
“Tenho o prazer de estar com as pessoas certas para me levar ao topo e estou disposto a fazer o que é necessário para chegar lá,” Bordoy adicionou.
Bordoy, que trabalha em período integral como técnico de reparo, fez sua estréia profissional em maio passado e ele lutou um total de três vezes em 2017, sua mais recente em outubro passado em Worcester em um programa promovido pela RPE, em que ele parou veterano de 34 lutas Bryan Abraham na quarta rodada.
“Gostamos de trabalhar com a equipe Bordoy,” promotor Jose Antonio Rivera comentou. “Estou orgulhoso de Omar e suas realizações até agora. Ele é jovem, lutador de retrocesso com muito potencial. Vejo grandes coisas em seu futuro e fico feliz em ver que ele está sendo guiado na direção certa por sua equipe.”

Evander Holyfield & Luis Collazo Ring 8’s Special Guest Speakers

Terça-feira, Novembro. 21 no restaurante O'Neill's
In Maspeth, Nova Iorque
NOVA IORQUE (Novembro 15, 2017)) – Hall of Famer Evander “Real Deal” Holyfield and former world welterweight champion Luis Collazo will be special guest speakers at Ring 8’s next monthly meeting,Terça-feira noite, Novembro 21, no restaurante O'Neill's (64-21 53rd Dirigir) in Maspeth, Nova Iorque,
Because a large crowd is expected, only Ring 8 members will be allowed to attend this meeting, but membership may be obtained at the door for those interested in joining Ring 8.
Evander Holyfield is one of the few living legends in our sport,” Anel 8 presidente Jack Hirsch dito. “Assim, you can imagine how thrilled we are to have him as a guest speaker. We had planned to present Holyfield with the Ring 8 Legends Award at our holiday banquet, but a lucrative business opportunity will prohibit him from being there that afternoon. Em vez, we will present him with that award at O’Neil’s. It says a lot about Evander that he adjusted his schedule to remain in New York to attend our meeting.
Luis Collazo is a terrific fighter in his own right, having been a former world champion. His career seems to be on an upswing once again and we are anxious to hear about his future plans.
Holyfield has retired as a boxer with an outstanding 44-10-2 (29 KOs), but this past year he has operated a New York City-based promotional company, Real Deal Boxing. A U.S. Olímpico, Holyfield is the only unified world cruiserweight champion, as well as a four-time heavyweight champion of the world.
He had a 16-7-2 record in world title fights and won 19 de 30 fights with two draws against past or present world champions, defeating a Who’s Who list of all-time greats such as Dwight Muhammad Qawi, George Foreman, Larry Holmes, Riddick Bowe e Mike Tyson (duas vezes), entre os mais notáveis.
Born in Brooklyn and now a resident of Queens, Collazo (37-7. 20 KOs) captured the World Boxing Association (WBA) welterweight world title on April 2, 2005, winning a 12-round split decision over hometown favorite and defending champion Jose Antonio Rivera em Worcester, Massachusetts.
The 26-year-old Collazo, who has also defeated world champions Miguel Angel Gonzalez e Victor Ortiz, remains a world title contender having upset 21-1 Sammy Vasquez in his last action by way of a sixth-round knockout last February.
