CASABLANCA, Moroco (Mawrth 14, 2017) – Last Saturday night in the Czech Republic, 2016 Olympic bronze medalist Mohammad Rabii experienced a rare “double” as he successfully turned pro and a few hours later became a father for the first time.
The 23-year-old Rabii, fighting out of Morocco, turned in a sensational professional debut, rhoi'r gorau i Lazlow Kovacs II (11-6) yn y 2:35 mark of the opening round at Sportovni Hala Kralovka in Prague.
Rabii entered the ring knowing his wife, Imane Imari, was in labor. “On the way to the arena,” Rabii explained, “I received a call that my wife was in labor and my son was coming soon. The fight couldn’t come quick enough for me. I was very excited but I had to concentrate on my first fight as a pro because it was such a big moment for me. The news later that my son had arrived was reason for a double celebration.
“Every time I connected on Kovacs, I could see that it was affecting him. I knew it was all over because I hit him with a big punch that me and my coach, Donald Leary, had worked on in training camp. I cannot wait for my next fight in April.”
Rabii’s son (unnamed at this writing) anghyfreithlon y raddfa yn 10 bunnoedd, 3 ounces. He and his mother are both in good health.
Rabii was one of the leading pro prospects coming of the Olympic Games in Brazil. He had dropped a highly-disputed decision (0-3) in the semifinals to Uzbekistan boxer Shakhram Giyasov, yr enillydd medal arian yn y pen draw. Rabii captured a coveted gold medal at the 2015 AIBA World Amateur Championships, yn eironig, curo 2016 Enillydd medal aur Olympaidd Daniyar Yeleussinov in the welterweight division championship final.
Rabbi had planned to make his pro debut prior to the arrival of his baby, who was due February 18, training in Cork, Ireland for his originally scheduled pro debut February 28 yn Casablanca. Fodd bynnag, due to reasons beyond the event organizers’ control, that show was unfortunately cancelled.
“I had to reschedule his pro debut for March 11fed against the same opponent, Kovacs,” said Rabii’s manager Gary Hyde, president of Nowwhere2Hyde Management. “Kovacs fights between 154 ac 168 bunnoedd, which is much heavier than the 147-pound welterweight division in which Rabii fights.
“Mohammad learned during his warm-up for the fight that his wife was in labor and close to delivering his first child. He had other things to take care of before concentrating on his family affairs, wasting no time as he annihilated Kovacs until dropping his Hungarian opponent hard near the end of the opening round. Czech spectators gasped as Rabii’s thunderous punches connected. Kovacs somehow got to his feet to beat the count but he was visibly shaken and the referee wisely stopped the fight. Rabii had no time to celebrate, er bod, as he rushed to contact his family back in Morocco, happily learning his wife had given birth to the couple’s baby boy at 7 a.m. Dydd Sul morning.”

Pencampwr amatur y byd Mohammad Rabii
Gwneud y perfformiad cyntaf gartref yn y prif ddigwyddiad
Chwefror. 18 yn Casablanca, Moroco
CASABLANCA, Moroco (Chwefror 2, 2017) – Cyn bencampwr pwysau mordeithio Dros Dro Yuri “El Toro” Kalenga yn darparu prif gefnogaeth Chwefror 18 ar gyfer synhwyro bocsio amatur Moroco Mohammad Rabii ar y “Brwydr Casablanca” Cerdyn, cyflwynwyd gan Nowhere2Hyde, yn Complexe de Sportif Mohammed V Arena yn Casablanca, Moroco.
Kalenga (22-3, 15 Kos), ymladd allan o Ffrainc trwy'r Congo, ar hyn o bryd yn cael ei raddio Na. 12 gan Gymdeithas Bocsio Byd (WBA) a Na. 16 gan Gyngor Bocsio Byd (CLlC). Mae'r arlunydd yn cymryd rhan Garrett “Mae'r Ultimate Warrior” Wilson (17-11-1, 9 Kos), o Philadelphia, sy'n gyn-Gymdeithas Bocsio yr Unol Daleithiau (USBA) a Ffederasiwn Bocsio Gogledd America (NABF) pencampwr.
Yn 2014, Cipiodd Kalenga deitl Dros Dro WBA gyda phenderfyniad rhaniad 12 rownd drosodd 32-1 Masternak Mateusz yn Monaco, ac yna amddiffyniad teitl llwyddiannus yng Nghanada yn erbyn 12-0 Denton Daley trwy a 12fed curo technegol rownd.
Ni fu Kalenga erioed mewn ymladd diflas. Mae dau o'i dri cholled gyrfa wedi bod i bencampwr pwysau mordeithio cyfredol WBA Denis Lebedev (26-2), pwy ollyngodd Kalenga yn y bedwaredd rownd, trwy benderfyniad unfrydol 12 rownd yn Rwsia, a mis Mehefin diwethaf cafodd ei stopio am y tro cyntaf yn ei yrfa saith mlynedd erbyn 20-0 yunier Dorticos ym Mharis ar gyfer y strap WBA Dros Dro.
Trechodd y Rabii 23 oed 2016 Enillydd medal aur Olympaidd Daniyar Yeleussinov yn rownd derfynol pencampwriaeth adran pwysau welter y 2015 Pencampwriaethau Amatur y Byd AIBA i gipio aur i'w frodor ym Moroco. Enillodd Rabii fedal efydd yn y 2016 Gemau Olympaidd ym Mrasil, gollwng penderfyniad dadleuol iawn (0-3) yn y semifinals i focsiwr Uzebek Shakhram Giyasov, yr enillydd medal arian yn y pen draw.
Mae'r Rabii ultra-garismatig wedi cyrraedd “seren roc” statws ym Moroco, tyst o 6 miliwn o Moroccans ar gyfartaledd yn gwylio pob un o gemau Olympaidd Rabbi ar Deledu Arryadia. “Rydym yn gyffrous iawn i weithio gyda'n partneriaid teledu, Arryadia, ar ein Chwefror 18fed sioe fel y gyntaf o bum sioe yn 2017 yn cynnwys Mohammed Rabii,” hyrwyddwr Gary Hyde Dywedodd. “Mae gan Rabii genedl gyfan Moroco y tu ôl iddo a bydd yn heriol am anrhydeddau pwysau welter gorau mewn dim o dro.”
Bydd Rabii yn cyflogi bocsiwr Hwngari hynafol Adam “Boy Drwg” Mate (24-10, 17 Kos) yn y prif ddigwyddiad chwe rownd.
Hefyd ar waith ar “Brwydr Casablanca” fydd cyn Gymdeithas Bocsio'r Byd (WBA) a'r Sefydliad Bocsio Rhyngwladol (IBO) pencampwr pwysau plu'r byd, Simpiwe Vetyeka (29-3, 17 Kos), sydd yn safle byd. 4 gan y WBA, A oes Ddim yn. 6 gan Y Ring cylchgrawn, a Na. 7 gan y Cyngor Llyfrau. Mae De Affrica dawnus yn wynebu gobaith Hwngari heb ei drin David Nerna (8-0, 8 Kos) mewn pwl o 10-rownd.
Pwysau canol ysgafn yr Iseldiroedd Gevorg Khatchikian (24-2, 12 Kos) hefyd ar waith yn erbyn Uganda Gyda “Kabona” Sebyala (16-8-1. 13 Kos) mewn rownd 10-rownd arall. Khatchikian, a fydd yn ymladd fel gweithiwr 154 pwys am y tro cyntaf fel gweithiwr proffesiynol, dim ond dwywaith wedi colli fel pro, y ddau i gyflwyno pencampwyr byd pwysau canolig gwych, James Degale (IBF) ac Gilberto Ramirez (WBO).
Hyde sy'n rheoli Rabii, Kalanga a Vetyeka.
Mae tocynnau ar werth nawr ar gyfer y Chwefror. 18 sioe yn Casablanca.
