(L-R) – Mykquan Williams & Paul Cichon


HARTFORD (Október 27, 2021) – Unbeaten super lightweight prospect “Marvelous” Mykquan Williams (16-0-1, 7 KO) has been on a long, strange trip in 2021, starting with his career-defining victory to date last January, bohužiaľ, followed by a car accident resulting in a wrist injury, leading to the entrepreneurial launch of his “Marvelous” merchandise and products, and last Thursday he became a father for the first time.

“It’s been very frustrating,” Williams said about his injury. “This is what I do; Som bojovník. At times it has been hard, and I’ve been frustrated the entire time. I’m eager to fight again, but I need to be patient. When the time is right and I’m back 100-percent, I’ll be back in the ring, hopefully, early next year. Teraz, I have to build-up my wrist, strength-wise.”

Williams was in a car accident this past March 5th, in which he suffered a dislocated right wrist, popped into place that evening in the trauma unit. The next morning, Williams underwent surgery to insert four pins, which left him in a splint for 11 weeks, until the pins were removed May 15th. Therapy and exercises were all he could do, no boxing at all, until he returned to training, and he threw his first punch only three weeks ago.

When a boxer suffers a serious injury to his hands like Williams, it often leaves questions about his or her boxing future. No different for “Marvelous” Mykquan, as he admits.

“Personally,” Williams explained, “I worry about coming back close to where I was, but I keep faith and keep working. People have been very supportive. Sometimes I think about not being able to box again, but I try not to think about that, but that is positioned in my mind.”

“We’re in no rush,” Williams’ head trainer Paul Cichon noted. “We’re doing exactly what his doctors are saying. I believe he’ll be back stronger, and more focused than ever now that he has a son to consider. I think he’ll be back strong in 2022.”

Williams has taken advantage of his downtime to launch his “Marvelous Chili,” as well as a “Marvelous” clothing line and gear, and he’s also looking into purchasing property.

His is life was dramatically altered this past Thursday, when his girlfriend, Zuleyma, delivered his son, Attikus Williams, who weighed in at, as a ring announcer would say, a fit and ready 9-pounds.

As he prepares for his comeback, Williams and Cichon will promote an amateur show November 20th at a venue to be determined.
“We’re hosting the show to help kids at our gym, Manchester ROCS (v ČT),” the DiBella Entertainment promoted Williams remarked. “We want to do a couple a year.”

The 23-year-old Williams has already overcome the murder of his father when Mykquan was only one, in addition to having his family house burned to the ground 10 rokov neskôr. A dislocated wrist has no chance of making him less than “Marvelous.”

Unbeaten Mykquan Williams staying in boxing shape as much as possible under pandemic conditions

Zanechať komentár

MANCHESTER, Conn. (Marec 23, 2020) – Like most professional boxers, unbeaten super lightweight prospect“Marvelous” Mykquan Williams (15-0-1, 7 KO) is making the most out of a challenging situation, as he prepares for his unknown future in boxing.

The coronavirus has shutdown boxing worldwide. Events are suspended indefinitely, boxers restricted in terms of training, and the immediate future remains tenuous at best.

Unable to train at his gym, Manchester ROCS, which is closed due to a Connecticut state order, the 21-year-old Williams is handling this pandemic in a mature manner that belies his young age. No whining, no ‘poor me’ feelings.

”This is a difficult time for everybody, including those of us in boxing,” East Hartford (CT) resident Williams said. “There’s no boxing on TV, nobody can compete, and everybody is isolated. It’s just unfortunate, but I’d rather be safe than sorry. Health concerns are and should always be the top priority.”

Williams hasn’t been in action since last October 24th, when he fought to a questionable eighth-round majority draw withTre’Sean Wiggins, in which Williams retained his World Boxing Council (WBC) Spojené štáty americké (USNBC) super lightweight title. Most observers felt that Williams deserved a win by decision.

Since the beginning of 2020, Williams had been training for an expected fight in the first third of the year, and he’s still training to stay in shape, albeit it not the same way as if he had a confirmed fight date.

“I’m still doing some training,” Williams explained. “I need to stay in shape for when the call comes after boxing returns. I’m in decent shape and when I get my next fight date, I won’t have to go from zero to get ready. I want to maintain 50 na 60 percent shape and then finish off training on schedule for my next fight.”

“I know Mykey has still been running,” Williams’ head trainerPaul Cichon added. “We’re going to be back training soon. I believe everything happens for a reason. Mykey and me had a conference call with (manažér) Jackie Kallen a (podporovateľ) Lou DiBella, and we trust that, as soon as possible, Mykey will be back in action.”

Because Williams doesn’t turn 22 until this April 6, in addition to already being a pro boxer for nearly four years, his young boxing career figures to resume quicker and stronger than for many older boxers. Losing six months shouldn’t hinder a prospect like Williams as much as a veteran who may not have nearly as much comparable quality competitive time left in the ring.

“I’m not sure if age is that big an advantage,” Williams countered. “If some fighters were getting burned out because they were fighting a lot, taking time off, whether it’s due to the virus or not, a break may help them come back better and stronger than when they last fought.”

Williams was a five-time national amateur champion, kompilácie 45-13 amatérsky záznam, highlighted by three Ringside World titles, in addition to gold medal performances at the National PAL and National Silver Gloves championship.

“I don’t know when boxing will return,” Williams concluded, “but boxing will never die. People will always want to see guys punching each other in the face. Boxing is a sport rich in tradition and, momentálne, there is still a lot of talent coming up.”

And Mykquan Williams will be right at the head of that next wave when the boxing ban is finally lifted.

Celebrated manager Jackie Kallen predicts unbeaten Mykquan Williams will be her sixth world champion

Zanechať komentár

MANCHESTER, Conn. (Február 12, 2020) – Women’s pioneerJackie Kallen, the first and arguably most successful female manager in the boxing history, strongly believes unbeaten 21-year-old“Marvelous” Mykquan Williams (15-0-1, 7 KO) will develop into her sixth world champion.

Williams, fighting out of East Hartford, CT, is the reigning the World Boxing Council (WBC) United States super lightweight champion.

“Mykey has a lot of the qualities as some of the greats in boxing,” Kallen said. “He has some of the flash and speed of fighters like Ray Leonard, and the training habits and dedication of Thomas Hearns a Mike Tyson. He also has a killer smile and good looks like Hector Camacho, Sr.

“Mykey can go all the way to a world title. He has the speed, attitude, and heart, along with exceptional boxing ability. He has been groomed perfectly by his trainer, Paul Cichon, who has kept Mykey true to his style, working hard to perfect his skill. Mykey trains hard, eats right, and takes the game seriously.”

“Jackie’s very experienced and knowledgeable in boxing,” Williams remarked. “She’s worked with some great, world-class fighters, so she knows the route to take for me to get there.”

Cichon added, “I sought out Jackie as our manager because of her love for the sports, as well as the knowledge of that she brings to the table. She’s very well respected, as she certainly deserves to be.”

Boxing has dramatically changed since Kallen covered her first fight for a Detroit daily newspaper in 1978. The card showcased Hearns andMickey Goodwin.  She became an instant fan and wrote about boxing on a regular basis. A legendary trainer/manager based in Detroit, Emanuel Steward, hired her as a publicist for his famed Kronk Gym. Some of her best friends to this day are fighters who she worked with back then. She and Hearns still get together.

After serving as Kronk’s publicist for a decade, Kallen decided to branch out and she started managing fighters. Her first client was heavyweightBobby Hitz, who today is a successful promoter and restaurateur in Chicago. She went on to manage a group of Who’s Who fighters, including world championsJames Toney, Bronco McKart, Tom “Boom Boom” Johnson, Pinklon Thomas aNonito Donaire.

Kallen, who overcame sexism in the boxing industry, is best known, možná, for her working relationship with Toney, largely because her life during that period was the inspiration for the popular 2004 film, Against the Ropes, starringMeg Ryan as Kallen.

“Boxing today is a totally different animal,” she explained. “That’s not to say it’s better or worse, just different. There used to be more gyms in every city, heavy amateur programs, lots of shows on television networks, and enough local club shows to keep a young fighter active. I had guys back then who fought 8 na 10 times a year, ktorý, samozrejme, is almost impossible in 2020.

“There wasn’t as much information available on opponents either. If you were lucky, you could buy a tape. If the fighter hadn’t been on television, hoci, you were out of luck. There was no Internet, so there was nothing like BoxRec to check opponents’ records. You just had to believe the matchmaker. I had fighters expecting to fight a 14-4 guy who found out at the weigh in that he was actually 16-0.”

Box, likely the second-oldest profession, has continued to survive, albeit often on a roller-coaster ride.

“Today’s fighters are not as quick to fight each other as they were in the days of Hearns/Hagler/Leonard/Duran,” Kallen noted. “Back then, fighters wanted to really fight to be the best they could be. I see fighters today being more analytical and taking less chances.

“There are also more sanctioning organizations today. Back then it was most the WBA, WBC and IBF. Not to mention there was never one person who managed dozens and dozens of boxers at the same time. The game has definitely changed!"

Kallen, though is still heavily invested in the sport she loves. Confident Williams will be her next world champion, her dream is to be inducted into the Hall of Fame with Toney.

“In 1992,” Kallen concluded, “I was named ‘Manager of the Year’ and my love for the sport has never waned. As long as there is talent out there needing guidance, I will stay active.”

Unbeaten Mykquan Williams learned invaluable lesson for future

Zanechať komentár
Picture by Emily Harney / Team Williams

MANCHESTER, Conn. (November 4, 2019) – The true test for a genuine boxing prospect is how he or she responds to adversity, whether it included a loss, cut, knockdown or, in the case of “Podivuhodný” Mykquan Williams, a disputed decision that tarnished his perfect pro record.

The 21-year-old Williams, teraz 15-0-1 (7 KO), was recently on the short end of a highly disputed eight-round draw with Tre’Sean Wiggins (11-4-3, 6 KO), v “Broadway Boxing” main event held at Generoso Pope Athletic Complex on the campus of St. Francis College in Brooklyn.

Nobody claimed the questionable decision was highway robbery, ešte, most non-partisan fans at the show, or those watching live on UFC FIGHT PASS®, felt Williams rightfully deserved to have his arms raised in victory. Despite having a blemish placed on his pro record, he didn’t suffer a loss, and did retain his World Boxing Council (WBC) United States super lightweight title.

Williams’ opponent was a southpaw with a five-inch height advantage. Once he felt Williams’ energie, especially in the liver, Wiggins went into survival mode, clutching and grabbing every time Williams got close.

Neither Williams nor his head trainer, Paul Cichon, was pleased when the judges’ scores were announced – 77-75 in favor of Williams, 76-76 dvakrát – for a majority draw. Never-the-less, both feel that this developmental lesson will pay dividends down the road.

“The plan was for me to work inside,” Williams said after the fight. “The first and second were feeling out rounds and then I’d adjust. I didn’t feel from the start that he could hurt me. I wanted to get inside and beat him with body punches. I did that but I think I played to the crowd a little too much. I’d change that if I could go back. And I would have let my hands go more, but I won this fight because I landed the harder, cleaner more effective shots throughout the fight. He just wanted to hold.

“I’m disappointed because I was defending my title, but I didn’t lose the fight and I still have my belt. I ll have a lot to learn and I’ll be back in the gym soon to fix errors I made so that I won’t have those issues my next fight.”

Cichon felt that Williams won five if not six rounds because he was the aggressor throughout the match. “Bol som prekvapený,” priznal. “Mykye was the champion and I thought that he (Wiggins) would have needed to win convincingly to win rounds. He didn’t. Mykye started using his double jab to get inside and then he killed his opponent’s body. The body shots brought Wiggins’ hands down. Mykye stalked and hurt him a few times.

“Mykye learned a valuable lesson like not letting the crowd get to him, and never letting up on the gas.Wiggins was smart. Every time Mykye got close to him, he grabbed him, especially after he felt Mykye’s powerful body shots. It may have been ugly, but he fought smart.”

Team Williams agrees that there’s no sense rushing Williams, po všetkom, je mu ešte len 21, but that 2020 should be an active, career-changing year for the East Hartford (CT) bojovník.

“I’m ready to fight at the next level,” Williams concluded. “Time will tell. Styles make fights but I hurt him (Wiggins) several times.”

“We’ll jump back in the ring in early 2020,” Cichon added. “We’re looking to fight opponents with winning records, but not another six-foot southpaw.”

“I was very proud of Mykey,” Williams’ manažér Jackie Kallen komentoval. It was a learning experience that will make him an even greater fighter. He is still undefeated and one of the top young prospects in the 140-pound division. The next year will be a pivotal one for him.”

MANCHESTER, Conn. (August 22, 2019) — Even dangerous thunderstorms and tornado warnings couldn’t deter fans from attending yesterday’s meet-and-greet and back to school backpack give-way with undefeated super lightweight prospect “Podivuhodný” Mykquan Williams, presented by DiBella Entertainment and Team Williams, at ROCS Gym in Manchester, Connecticut.

Williams signed autographs, posed for pictures and gave each child (K-12) a free backpack for school.

“Everything went very well,” a happy Williams said. “All the kids got a backpack and had a good time. My team made it possible for me to do it. Shout out to DiBella Entertainment, Wet Paint and Capital Bail Bonds. I did this event to give back to the community but, dolezitejsie, help parents who may have a little bit of difficulty getting everything their kids need for school.”

Williams is the reigning World Boxing Council (WBC) United States super lightweight champion, ktorý je hodnotený Žiadny. 5 by the United States Boxing Association (USBA), a č. 12 by the North American Boxing Federation (NABF).

He is promoted by Lou DiBella, managed by Jackie Kallen and trained by Paul Cichon.

Mashantucket, CT (Septembra 16, 2017) – Undefeated Irishman Niall “Boom Boom” Kennedy won a controversial 10-round split decision versus defending champion Alexis Santos to capture the New England heavyweight championship in last night’s (Sobota) main event of Broadway Boxing held in Fox Theater, v kasíne Foxwoods Resort, v Mashantuckete, CT.
The Broadway Boxing séria je propagovaná spoločnosťou DiBella Entertainment a prezentovaná spoločnosťou Nissan of Queens, Hodinky Azad, OPTYX, a Christos Steak House. Last night’s show, which was streamed by FightNight LIVE on Facebook, was promoted in association with Murphys Boxing.
Kennedy (9-0, 5 KO), fighting out of Galway, Írsko, by way of Boston, battled Santos in a competitive, action-packed brawl to be awarded the N.E. title by scores of 96-93, 96-93, 93-96. The majority of fans in attendance, outside of Kennedy’s Irish supporters, and the ringside media felt that Santos, od Lawrence, MA, had the edge and deserved the decision.
Rozhodca Al LoBianco deducted a point from Santos in the ninth round for a highly questionable low blow and failed to rule a knockdown when it appeared the ropes kept Kennedy upright in a tremendous last round surge from the Dominican American.
V čo-predstavoval záchvat, Bývalý majster sveta Škrupinový “Shelito Way” Vincent (20-1, 1 KO), of Providence, RI, defeated former world title challenger Angel “Non-Stop” Gladney (9-13-1, 6 KO) in a junior lightweight match. The colorful Vincent was the aggressor throughout the fight, effectively cutting off the ring, outboxing and walking down Gladney for a lop-sided eight-round unanimous decision (80-72, 80-71 dvakrát).
Shelly Vincent (L) outclassed Angel Gladney
Rising Connecticut welterweight star “Podivuhodný” Mykquan Williams vylepšil svoj rekord na 8-0 (4 KO), pitching a complete shutout in an impressive six-round unanimous decision (all 60-54) win over a much more experienced and considerably taller Evincii “Prize Fighter” Dixon (7-20-2, 2 KO). Williams is a 19-year-old from East Hartford who is a freshman at Manchester Community College.
Mykquan Williams (L) cruised to another victory
2012 Ukrajinská Olympian Ievgen “The Ukrainian Lion” Khytrov (15-1, 13 KO), bojuje z Brooklynu, bounced back from his only pro loss with a near shutout eight-round decision victory (80-72 dvakrát, 79-73) over his always tough super middleweight adversary, battle-tested veteran Žeriav “Superman” Finley (27-22-1, 18 KO).
“It was different when I first started training after a loss,” Khytrov said after the fight. “I started to think more and work on my defense; to fight much smarter instead of just brawling, throwing punches, like I did before my loss. I came the US four years ago from a small country that’s not rich to become a world champion. I feel I’m back on the right track.
Ievgen Khytrov (R) bounced back with a solid win
Hot New England junior welterweight prospect Adrian “Tonka” Sosa (5-0, 4 KO) stepped up in class against Mexican Francisco “El Mono” Medel (11-10, 7 KO), and remained undefeated by displaying his overall game, offensively and defensively. Fighting out of Lawrence, MA, the 2014 N.E. amateur champion Sosa dropped Medal with a straight right in the first round, a sneaky body shot in the second and finished him off in the third with a crisp right to the temple as referee Al LoBianco immediately halted the action.
Pro-debuting welterweights Nicky DeQuattro (1-0, 1 KO) a Timothy Wheeler (0-1) engaged in a street fight from the opening bell until DeQuartro, fighting out of Johnson, RI, connected with an overhand right that dropped his New York City rival. O chvíľu neskôr, DeQuattro unleashed a four-punch combination that dropped Wheeler for a complete 10-count.
The night started with a barnburner as former Irish amateur standout Ray Moylette (6-0, 2 KO) kept his undefeated pro record intact but it certainly wasn’t easy. Moylette overcame a second-round knockdown, coming back strong in the second half of the fight to take a six-round split decision versus game junior welterweight Donte Bryant (1-3-1, 1 KO).

Mashantucket, CT (Jún 4, 2017) – Úžasný návrat z Matt “Ostrý strelec” Remillard pokračovalo včera večer, keď sa zastavila populárna ľahká váha Connecticutu Fatiou Fassinou v Broadway Boxing headliner sa konal v divadle Fox, v kasíne Foxwoods Resort, v Mashantuckete, CT.

Remillard, 30, bol č. 2-v rebríčku pérovej váhy na svete v 2011, keď prehral s budúcim majstrom sveta Mikey Garcia (LRTD11). Boj z Manchestru, CT, Dnešný večer bol pre Remillarda prvým v jeho domovskom štáte po šesť a pol roku, kvôli nemu vo výkone päťročného trestu odňatia slobody. Do ringu sa vrátil vlani v apríli, prijímanie osemkolového rozhodnutia z Agustín Mauras, Worcester, MA.
V úvodnom kole, Remillard (25-1, 14 KO) a uhladený Benin-domorodec, bývalý šampión medzinárodného striebra organizácie WBC Fassinou (27-6-3, 14 KO) spoznali sa, keďže obaja bojovníci boli opatrní. Remillard otvoril v druhom kole, pomocou ľavice k telu, zhodil Fassinoua vo svojom rohu počas posledných sekúnd. Do tretice akciu stlačil Remillard, okoreniť Fassinoua okolo ringu jeho známym trestajúcim štýlom, uvedenie Fassinoua do jeho “Ostrý strelec” mieridlá na precvičovanie terčov vo štvrtom. Fassinou nedokázal odpovedať na zvonček pre piate kolo.
“Proti juhu, ľavý hák na pečeň je tam, úder, ktorým som známy,” Remillard komentoval po boji. “Bol trochu lajdáckejší, ako som čakal. Cítil som sa dobre; Ja som 24/7 v telocvični. Možno budem mať tento rok ešte jeden zápas, aby som sa dostal do niektorých kôl, a potom sa pripravte na veľkú 2018. Chcem odvetný zápas s Garciom, na 135 alebo 140 libier, 100-percento. Dlží mi odvetný zápas. Ten chlap, ktorého zbil, som nebol ja.”
Ruslan Šamalov (L) & George Arias sa zapojil do boja noci

Shamalovove silné údery otriasli oveľa kratšími 5:11” Árie v prvom kole, ale Arias zostal mimo povrazov a v druhom boxoval oveľa lepšie. Dvaja bojovníci si počas úžasného tretieho kola vymenili bomby, nejako, štvrtý bol ešte lepší s tam a späť, nonstop akcia. V piatom kole tempo mierne opadlo, pripraviť pôdu pre bombový šiesty a posledný frame, ktorý nesklamal.
Šamalov a Arias bojovali v zúrivom tempe, najmä pre ťažké váhy, v oprávnenom šesťkole “Boj roka” kandidát. Arias, vedúci Team Wash Em’ Hore v Bronxe, vyhral šesťkolové jednomyseľné rozhodnutie o skóre 60-54, 59-55, a 58-56.
“Táto výhra bola pre mňa obrovská,” povedal prešťastný Arias, po svojom prvom šesťkolovom súboji. “Mal som herný plán, ale raz mi ublížil v prvom kole, moje srdce sa prebralo a ja som len bojoval. Rád bojujem za ľudí, tak som sa držal v prvom namiesto toho, aby som vzal koleno.”
Mykquan Williams (R) oslávil maturitu o niečo skôr
Obľúbený davom “Podivuhodný” Mykquan Williams (7-0, 4 KO) daroval si predčasnú promóciu, keď bojovník z East Hartfordu porazil nikaragujskú welterovú váhu Ariel “Vojna” Vasquez (13-18-2, 9 KO) v prvom šesťkolovom súboji. 19-ročný Williams, päťnásobný národný amatérsky šampión, je začínajúca hviezda s obrovským vzostupom. Pripravený nad svoje roky, Williams kontroloval tempo proti svojmu bojovne skúšanému súperovi Southpaw, ktorý je 11 rokov Williams’ senior, predvádza svoj obrovský arzenál úderov, najmä jeho ľavo-pravá kombinácia, ktorá dôsledne pristávala. Williams’ rýchle ruky prvýkrát vybuchli na konci druhého kola, potom zachytil svoj útok v treťom, keď prešiel k šesťkolovému rozhodnutiu o odstavení, s tromi súčtami 60-54.
Williams maturuje na Jún 20 od Prince Tech. “Bol to dobrý darček k promócii,” Williams povedal,. “Rýchlosť mojej ruky hrala veľký faktor. Bol to tvrdý chlap, špeciálne pre moju prvú šesťkolku.”
Jennifer Salinas (R) mal toho na Marquitu Lee príliš veľa
šampión perovej váhy Jennifer “Bolívijská kráľovná” Salinas (20-4, 5 KO) porazený Marquita Lee (3-5) cestou tvrdo vybojovaného šesťkolového jednomyseľného rozhodnutia. Salinas, bojovanie mimo Providence, bol celý čas agresorom, ale Lee nikdy neurobil krok späť. Výsledkové listy 59-55 dvakrát, a 58-56, všetko pre Salinasa.
Boj s oveľa skúsenejším a vyšším súperom z Afriky, sľubná Lynn, MA vyhliadka Khyry “TNT” Todd (5-0, 5 KO) vyhral svoj piaty profi zápas, všetci knockout. A 2016 New England Golden rukavice majster, Todd získal neoceniteľné skúsenosti proti cagey super welterovej váhe Nicolas Sarouna (12-9-1, 9 KO), z Toga, ktorý si poranil koleno po tom, čo ho v treťom kole zasiahol záludný horný strih. Sarouna nedokázal prekonať 10-počet, keď Todd zlepšil svoj perfektný rekord, so zastávkou TKO na k 1:32 značka.

Kubánska krížová váha Luis “Lev” Garcia (15-0, 12 KO) Svoj perfektný profesionálny rekord si udržal nedotknutý, keď v prvom kole knockoutoval svojho deklasovaného mexického súpera Felipe Romero (19-14-1, 13 KO), v boji zo San Diega. Teraz žije v Peekskill, NY, Garcia prehodil Romera hneď v úvodných sekundách presilou a ten nikdy nepoľavil, sústavne ubližovať Romerovi sériou devastujúcich práv. Garcia uzavrel prehliadku s prevratným výkonom, vedúci rozhodca Johnny Callas zastaviť akciu na 1:48 značka.
Trojnásobný člen portorického národného boxerského tímu Jose Roman (4-0, 3 KO) išiel na diaľku prvýkrát proti hre William Hill (2-3), Detroit.
