Direct descendant of Rocky Marciano Brandon Cappiello Drops another New England Patriots music video

BROCKTON, كتلة. (يناير 10, 2022) — A direct descendant of the great Rocky Marciano, Brandon “Brandon Capp” Cappiello, dropped another music video today about the New England Patriots – Patriot (New Era Anthem) – as the club prepares for this Saturday night’s NFL playoff wild card game versus the Buffalo Bills.
Cappiello’s paternal great grandmother and Marciano’s wife were sisters. His grandfather, Michael “Duna” Cappiello, traveled everywhere with Rocky during his undefeated Hall of Fame professional boxing career.

Brandon’s father and uncle, على التوالي, promoter/matchmaker Rich Cappiello and trainer/former pro boxer Mike Cappiello, own and operate Cappiello Boxing Gym in downtown Brockton (MA), known as the City of Champions. Hall of Famer Marvelous Marvin Hagler also fought out of Brockton.

Cappiello and fellow Brockton native Randall “Randy Lo” Coulanges wrote and performed “Patriot,” and Brandon mixed and produced it. This is the third and likely the final anthem for the Brockton duo. قبل ست سنوات, their original music video, “Champion,” went viral and their follow-up was a successful Boston Red Sox anthem, entitled “Never Back Down.”

“Patriot” was directed by Scott Beer (Scott Beer Media), a highly accomplished film maker/videographer from Rhode Island.
An associate known as BA originally asked “Brandon Capp,” a singer, and rapper “Randy Lo” if they would do a Patriots music video. He was well known on the Boston music scene having been involved with New Kids On The Block و New Edition.

“I was skeptical at first because it’s so difficult to please everyone,” Brandon said. “We did it in less than a week and I produced it in my bedroom. All of a sudden, things were crazy, it went viral overnight. We’ve had more than 3 million collective views across all media platforms. It took on a life of its own. It was playing everywhere, and we were guests on a lot of television and radio shows. It still gets 200,000 views a year.

“Our first anthem was an anomaly. We did it all without any real help in such a short time. But we are real artists who have both been doing music for years. It resonated in every demographic, even playing on radio, something that never happens for a sports anthem that is team based. It was more about recognition for both of us because people loved it and shared on social media. It was an incredible ride that really hasn’t ended.

The third of their anthem trilogy promises to be equally addictive as its original, if not more popular, largely because of several key reasons
“The sky is the limit for this song,” Cappiello concluded. “The first one was special, but this time we wanted to take the special formula of what worked and give a fresh and new take on a great concept.

” Hundreds of people had asked us to do another one for years. And nobody collaborates better than us. We’re great friends who’ve known each other since the seventh grade. We want what’s best for both of us.”

The ideal situation for “Brandon Capp” and “Randy Lo” would be performing live before or during halftime at the 2022 New England Patriots’ season opener, أو, better yet, performing at a Pats’ pep rally if they make another playoff run this season.

Brandon Cappiello knows how to deliver a knockout….it’s in his blood

إدخال إحساس الوزن الثقيل الخالي من الهزيمة جيمس “الوحش” ويلسون

ترك تعليق
يدخل Golden Boy “وضع الوحش أو عدم وجود وضع”
أدار جاريد شو للوزن الثقيل صفقة ترويجية وقعت مؤخرًا مع Golden Boy Promotions

لوس انجليس, مثل. (تشرين الثاني 8, 2018) – في عصر أصبحت فيه الملاكمة ذات الوزن الثقيل مرة أخرى تقسيمًا ساخنًا. لا يزال السؤال مطروحًا, من سيكون ذلك مايك تايسون القادم مثل فنان الضربة القاضية? أو هل أدت رياضات مثل كرة القدم وكرة السلة إلى إبعاد أفضل الرجال الكبار عن الملاكمة?

 

 

 

أدخل جيمس “الوحش” ويلسون.

 

 

 

يمتلك ويلسون كل سمات الصفات المذكورة أعلاه. رياضي رائع, الذي كان في معسكر تدريب NFL مع خلفية في القتال الذي يظهر قوة شرسة.

 

 

 

ويلسون, الذين وقعوا للتو مع Golden Boy Promotions, لديه سجل من 8-0 مع سبعة بالضربة القاضية, لكن قصته تبدأ من جديد 20 منذ سنوات في شوارع لوس أنجلوس.

 

 

 

كان ويلسون يمر بأوقات عصيبة وكان بلا مأوى بين العصور 13 و 15, حيث كان ينام في الموتيلات, مقاعد الحديقة, والاستحمام في تلك الحدائق. كان لدى ويلسون حيلة مع القانون, وهذا غير حياته….للافضل.

 

 

 

“تم حبسي ثم وضعي في مجموعة. لقد جعلني هذا في الواقع أمتلك هيكلًا ووضعني على المسار الصحيح. لقد أبليت بلاءً حسنًا في المدرسة وبدأت في ممارسة الرياضة ولدي الآن خيارات إيجابية في حياتي,” قال ويلسون.

 

 

 

أصبح ويلسون أفضل لاعب كرة قدم في مدرسة لوس أنجلوس تايمز الثانوية, بالإضافة إلى مسار ثلاثي لجميع المدن & رياضي ميداني, حصل على منحة دراسية من جامعة كونكورد في ولاية فرجينيا الغربية.

 

 

 

ويلسون, تخرج بدرجة في علم الاجتماع, ثم ذهب للعب كرة القدم المحترفة في جميع الأماكن, بولندا.

 

 

 

بعد ذلك حصل على دعوة معسكر تدريبي مع Chicago Bears. ومع ذلك فقد اختار أن يتبع شغفًا رياضيًا آخر.

 

 

 

“بدأت ممارسة لعبة كينبو كاراتيه, الملاكمة التايلاندية والكيك بوكسينغ.” كان لدى ويلسون سجل احترافي في لعبة الكيك بوكسينغ 16-2-1 حيث تنافس في المنظمات الكبرى مثل K-1 و Glory.

 

 

بعد ذلك, جرب ويلسون يده في MMA وحقق نجاحًا مثيرًا للإعجاب 5-2 سجل وحارب من أجل بطولات Bellator Fighting التي تحظى بتقدير كبير.

 

 

 

ما زلت غير راضٍ, بدأ ويلسون الملاكمة.

 

 

 

سافر ويلسون مرة أخرى حول العالم وبدأ في ممارسة مسيرته المهنية مقابل أجر في نيوزيلندا.

 

 

 

“كنت أعرف مروجًا في نيوزيلندا, وكنت قادرًا على القتال هناك كل أسبوع. أدى ذلك إلى تسريع عملي وتطوري. عدت إلى لوس أنجلوس, وتمكنت من تحقيق أربعة انتصارات أخرى.”

 

 

 

في 7-0, ثم التقى ويلسون بلاعب صناعة الملاكمة منذ فترة طويلة, جاريد شو.

 

 

 

شاهد شو مقاطع فيديو لويلسون على حسابه على Instagram, ومد يده إلى الوزن الثقيل الذي لم يهزم.

 

 

 

“جاريد اتصل بي, والتقى في صالة الألعاب الرياضية, وكان لديه نفس الرؤية التي كانت لدي, والباقي هو التاريخ.”

 

 

 

“رأيت جيمس كالماس في الخام,” قال شو. “لديه التركيبة والسرعة والقوة التي لا تراها في قسم الوزن الثقيل. لديه ذلك “هذا” العامل الذي رأيته مع Kimbo Slice. كنت محظوظًا بما يكفي لتوقيع Kimbo للخروج من المعارك التي شوهدت على Youtube. عندما دخل Kimbo الغرفة, شعرت بالحضور والطاقة. أرى الكثير من نفس الصفات من حيث أن جيمس هو ذلك النوع من الجاذبية. أي شخص يعتقد خطأً أن جيمس هو لاعب كرة قدم أو فنان قتالي مختلط ، فمن المؤكد أن يديه ستكون ممتلئة في حلبة الملاكمة. هذا رياضي ممتاز, ” قال شو, الذي نشأ في هذه الرياضة حيث كان والده غاري شو أحد كبار المروجين في العالم على مدار العقود الثلاثة الماضية.

 

 

 

 

 

كانت مهمة شو الأولى هي الحصول على جيمس مع المدرب المناسب. أدخل جاستن فورتشن.

 

 

 

“لقد عرفت جوستين لفترة طويلة. كمدرب قوة وتكييف وكمدرب. سيعرفه معظمهم إلى جانب ماني باكياو, ولكن ربما لا يعرف معظم الناس أن جاستن كان من أصحاب الوزن الثقيل الذي حارب لينوكس لويس. أكثر ما يعجبني في هذا الاقتران هو أن جاستن كان وزنًا ثقيلًا أقصر أيضًا, لكن لكمة قوية. سنوات خبرته هي التي ستساعد جيمس على تسريع نموه في الرياضة. كفريق, لدينا هدف لإعادة بطولة العالم إلى لوس أنجلوس وفي الوقت المناسب,” تابع شو.

 

 

 

كانت الخطوة التالية لـ Shaw هي العثور على المروج المناسب لويلسون للتوقيع معه, ووجد الثنائي واحدة من أكبر الشركات المهتمة في العالم.

 

 

 

“كان الكثير من المروجين ينظرون إلي. التقيت مع Golden Boy, ورأوا موهبتي ورؤيتي وأشعر أنهم سيحققون ذلك بالنسبة لي, وتأخذني إلى بطولة العالم للوزن الثقيل,” قال ويلسون.

 

 

 

أشاد شو بالزواج بين المقاتل والمروج.

 

 

“إنه الوضع المثالي. Golden Boy Promotions هي واحدة من الشركات الرائدة في رياضتنا عندما يتعلق الأمر بشركات الترويج. في هذا الوضع, لقد تبين أن لديك فرصة كبيرة من لوس أنجلوس تقاتل من شركة مشهورة عالميًا مقرها في لوس أنجلوس. الآن Golden Boy في قمة هذه الرياضة. إنهم يروجون لأفضل مقاتل في العالم في كانيلو ألفاريز, وتمكنوا من تأمين صفقة غير مسبوقة له مع DAZN. نتطلع إلى الفرص التي ستتاح لجيمس, ولعرض جيمس’ مجموعة غير عادية من المهارات. لدي 100% الثقة في أوسكار (دي لا هويا), اريك (غوميز) وروبرت (دياز) لقيادة جيمس إلى بطولة العالم للوزن الثقيل, وتساعد على زيادة أرباحه المحتملة. لم يكن لدى لوس أنجلوس مطلقًا بطل للوزن الثقيل, لذلك فمن المنطقي أن يكون الشخص الأول مع فريق كامل في لوس أنجلوس مع جيمس, فقط في, أنا والولد الذهبي. ”

 

 

 

“ما أود أن يعرفه الناس عن جيمس هو ذلك داخل الحبال, إنه فيلم تسليط الضوء على الوحش والإنسان, لذلك لا ترمش. لكن خارج الحلبة, إنه أب رائع لأبنائه الثلاثة. متحدث تحفيزي هائل, ونموذج إيجابي للمدن الداخلية وبقية العالم. إنه كبير في المجتمع ويساعد الشباب. خاصة أولئك الذين يتعرضون للتخويف.”

 

 

 

يتحدث ويلسون إلى الكثير من الشباب حول مكافحة التنمر. “أقوم بالكثير من المحاضرات والندوات لمكافحة التنمر. أذهب إلى الكثير من المدارس ودور رعاية وأروي لهم قصتي. أعتقد أنني يمكن أن أكون شخصًا يتطلع إليه الأطفال ويخبرهم أن لديهم مستقبلًا على الرغم من الظروف التي يعيشون فيها. أقول للأطفال إن أيديكم أسلحة, فمك سلاح, والمكان الوحيد للقتال هو داخل الحلقة.”

 

 

 

عندما سئل عمن يريد القتال وما هي أهدافه في الرياضة, قال ويلسون, “أنا لا أتطلع لمحاربة أي فرد على وجه التحديد, أنا أتطلع لمحاربة كل منهم. الاكثر اهمية, أنا هنا لأمنح المشجعين شيئًا لمشاهدته. أنه 365 ايام ال “بهيمة” الموسم. إنه Beast Mode أو No Mode.”

“Ray has shown that he has the physical tools to become a top heavyweight,” وقال الرئيس التنفيذي لشركة GH3 الترقيات فيتو Mielnicki.
“He has a ton of upside and with heavyweights, there is a chance to become a star very quickly here in the States. I think that because he has competed at a high level in the NFL, he has a chance to do that in boxing. We are looking to get him three fights before the end of the year. He is 6’6 255 رطل. and we will move him like like most heavyweights, steady but right and no rush. He will be at the top when it’s time.

In what playing at the highest level of professional sports, he can take into boxing, Edwards notes, “I played defensive line and I was focused on the ball. So I have learned to tune things out. It’s that tunnel vision that playing in front of 100,000 الناس, you learn that. Not to listen to the crowd and stay focused.”
When asked if what his former NFL fraternity thinks of his move to boxing, Edwards stated, “I still get support from my friends in the league. They are always asking when and where I am fighting, so I feel when the fights get higher profile, It will become a really big thing.”

Said Edwards trainer Kennie Johnson, “He is developing into a good
مقاتل. We started out with a guy who had a great physical presence, but he has been a fast learner and now it is time for people to see that. He is coming along well and when the competition steps up, we will see that he is a quality fighter. He is the hardest worker that I ever seen in the forty years that I have been around the sport.”
Edwards is managed by Chances Aurelius, الذي قال, “Vito Mielnicki is a good guy and I am happy to be on board with GH3 Promotions. I think we will do big things together.”

High School Assistant Coach of the Year: Anthony Mirra, Tottenville High School, جزيرة ستاتن
Mirra has been actively involved in Tottenville’s wrestling program since he was a student-athlete himself. He admits the sport for helping to make kids tougher mentally, emotionally and physically. As the lightweight coach, Mirra has helped to produce at least one Mayor’s Cup champion and at least one city champion every year. This past season, he saw six individuals crowned at the city championships and represent Tottenville at the state tournament in Albany, which has never been done by a large school’s team before. As one supporter said of Mirra, “his dedication does not end when practice ends…he is the coach that wrestlers confide in when they are struggling.”

Girls High School Coach of the Year: Theodore Cook, Harry S. Truman High School, برونكس
A veteran of wrestling with over twenty years of experience, Cook has inspired a number of students with his coaching abilities. He’s widely respected for pushing his girls on the team that he started out of their comfort zones and daring them to try their hardest. “He is not afraid to go above and beyond to make sure his team reaches their full potential,” said one student. Another writes: “I can honestly said Coach Cook is probably the most trustworthy and reliable person I know.” Several of his supporters praise him as a father figure who helps lift everyone’s spirits and inspires the girls with life lessons.

Boys High School Coach of the Year: Peter Cardone, William Cullen Bryant High School, كوينز
Coach Cardone has made the most of having a dedicated wrestling room at WC Bryant High School and turned a program on the brink into city champions. Cardone’s leadership, with the help of coaches Joe Goetz and Joseph Weinstein, grew his team from fifteen wrestlers to fifty-five. Cardone has overseen numerous accomplishments during his time with the school, including the NYC Freshman and Sophomore Title and becoming undefeated Region 4 Division Champions. “He has changed the lives of many wrestlers in the school by being with them through both good and hard times as a friend and a coach.”

Volunteer of the Year: David Prado
Prado has been involved in wrestling since he was in elementary school and attended Arizona State on an athletic scholarship. He is committed to the sport because it has given him so much success and opportunity throughout his life that he seeks to “pay it forward” to other kids whenever possible. He shows tireless dedication to the cause of Beat the Streets, volunteering at practices several days a week.

MATT MITRIONE CHOOSES BELLATOR MMA, SIGNING AN EXCLUSIVE, MULTI-FIGHT CONTRACT WITH THE PROMOTION

ترك تعليق

سانتا مونيكا (مارس 14, 2016) – Last week, top mixed martial art’s free agent Matt Mitrione (9-5) joined Ariel Helwani’s “MMA Hour” show and revealed that he had been fielding offers from multiple promotions, including a great bid he had received from Bellator MMA. In a very rare move, Helwani had Mitrione rejoin his popular talk show for a second straight week to announce that the paperwork has been finalized, making Mitrione the newest member of Bellator MMA’s heavyweight division.

 

“There comes a time in every athlete’s life, where the scenarios change and the landscape has eroded from what made you fall in love with it initially,” said Mitrione. “It has become that time for me. After a mutually beneficial free agency period, I’ve decided to move my career to Bellator. I’ve enjoyed almost every second of my career and unlike most that switch organizations due to being cut or no longer being able to perform at the sports highest levels, I am bringing a body and skillset that are only getting better and I cannot wait to test my abilities against the best Bellator has to offer.”

 

Lovingly referred to as “Meathead,” Mitrione is one of the few fighters to have started his professional career with the UFC without previously competing on the regional circuit. His 14-bout stint with that promotion began in 2009, where he faced formidable opponents the likes of: كيمبو سلايس, غابرييل غونزاغا, بن روثويل, ديريك لويس, برندان شواب, روي نيلسون, Shawn Jordan and Travis Brown amongst others.

 

قبل المنافسة في MMA, Mitrione earned a scholarship to play defensive tackle for the Purdue Boilermakers football team, not far from where he grew up in Springfield, سوء. بعد التخرج من الجامعة, he played in the NFL for the New York Giants, San Francisco 49ers and Minnesota Vikings until 2005.

 

At the conclusion of his professional football career, the Shotokan Karate Black Belt focused all of his attention on the sport of MMA. Mitrione spent time training with Duke Roufus and the highly-respected Roufusport team before landing with the famed Blackzilians camp in Boca Raton, FLA, where he trains today.

 

The extremely popular and well-spoken Mitrione has allowed the judges to determine the result of his fight only twice, ضد جوي بلتران و شيخ كونغو, both of whom currently fight for Bellator MMA. His entertaining fighting style has earned him recognition with “Performance of the Night” (مرتين) و “الكفاح من الليل” الجوائز.

 

Prior to his last fight with his former promotion, Mitrione was forced to participate in a media session barefoot, as his shoes didn’t adhere to the strict company uniform policy. He will have no such problems at Bellator, where he is free to secure his own sponsors and keep his feet warm with the footwear of his choosing.

 

Bellator has been bolstering their heavyweight division as of late, and Mitrione becomes the second heavyweight free agent the promotion has signed in as many months, كما سيرجي خاريتونوف joined the fray in February. The division is currently championed by فيتالي Minakov, and includes other top names like Slice, بوبي لاشلي, شيخ كونغو, Vinicius “Spartan,” Tony Johnson, جوستين رين, دان تشارلز و أوغستو ساكاي.
