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

BROCKTON, Quần chúng. (Tháng giêng 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, tương ứng, 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. Sáu năm trước, 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 và 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, hoặc, 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

Giới thiệu James Sensation hạng nặng bất bại “The Beast” Wilson

Để lại một bình luận
Cậu bé vàng bước vào “Chế độ Quái thú hoặc Không có Chế độ”
Jared Shaw quản lý Heavyweight gần đây đã ký hợp đồng quảng cáo với Golden Boy Promotion

Los Angeles, NHƯ. (Tháng mười một 8, 2018) – Trong thời đại mà quyền anh hạng nặng một lần nữa trở thành một bộ môn nóng bỏng. Câu hỏi vẫn được hỏi, ai sẽ là Mike Tyson tiếp theo như nghệ sĩ loại trực tiếp? Hoặc có các môn thể thao như bóng đá và bóng rổ đã loại bỏ những người đàn ông lớn nhất khỏi quyền anh?

 

 

 

Nhập James “The Beast” Wilson.

 

 

 

Wilson có tất cả các thuộc tính của các phẩm chất đã đề cập ở trên. Một vận động viên xuất sắc, người đã ở trong trại huấn luyện NFL với nền tảng chiến đấu thể hiện sức mạnh hung dữ.

 

 

 

Wilson, người vừa ký với Golden Boy Promotion, có một kỷ lục 8-0 với bảy lần loại trực tiếp, nhưng câu chuyện của anh ấy bắt đầu kết thúc 20 năm trước trên đường phố Los Angeles.

 

 

 

Wilson đã trải qua thời kỳ khó khăn và vô gia cư ở độ tuổi 13 và 15, nơi anh ấy đã ngủ trong nhà nghỉ, ghế công viên, và tắm trong những công viên đó. Wilson có một vết xước với luật pháp, và điều đó đã thay đổi cuộc đời anh ấy….Để tốt hơn.

 

 

 

“Tôi đã bị nhốt và sau đó được đưa vào một nhóm. Điều đó thực sự giúp tôi có cấu trúc và đưa tôi đi đúng hướng. Tôi học tốt ở trường và bắt đầu chơi thể thao và bây giờ tôi có những lựa chọn tích cực trong cuộc sống của mình,” Wilson nói.

 

 

 

Wilson trở thành Cầu thủ bóng đá của trường trung học Los Angeles Times, cũng như Đường đua xuyên thành phố ba lần & Vận động viên điền kinh, đã mang lại cho anh học bổng vào Đại học Concord ở Tây Virginia.

 

 

 

Wilson, người tốt nghiệp ngành xã hội học, sau đó tiếp tục chơi bóng đá chuyên nghiệp ở mọi nơi, Ba Lan.

 

 

 

Sau đó, anh ấy được mời tham gia trại huấn luyện với Chicago Bears. Tuy nhiên anh đã chọn theo một niềm đam mê thể thao khác.

 

 

 

“Tôi bắt đầu tập Kenpo-Karate, Muay-Thái và Kickboxing.” Wilson đã có kỷ lục Kickboxing chuyên nghiệp về 16-2-1 nơi anh ấy thi đấu trong các tổ chức hàng đầu như K-1 và Glory.

 

 

Sau đó, Wilson đã thử sức với MMA và đạt thành tích ấn tượng 5-2 ghi lại và chiến đấu để giành chức vô địch Bellator Fighting Championships được đánh giá cao.

 

 

 

Vẫn chưa hài lòng, Wilson bắt đầu chơi quyền anh.

 

 

 

Wilson lại đi du lịch khắp thế giới và bắt đầu sự nghiệp ăn lương ở New Zealand.

 

 

 

“Tôi biết một nhà quảng cáo ở New Zealand, và tôi đã có thể chiến đấu hàng tuần ở đó. Điều đó đã thúc đẩy quá trình và phát triển của tôi. Tôi đã trở lại Los Angeles, và có thể giành được thêm bốn chiến thắng.”

 

 

 

Tại 7-0, Wilson sau đó đã gặp người chơi lâu năm trong ngành quyền anh, Jared Shaw.

 

 

 

Shaw đã xem video về Wilson trên tài khoản Instagram của anh ấy, và vươn tới hạng nặng bất bại.

 

 

 

“Jared đã liên hệ với tôi, và gặp nhau ở phòng tập thể dục, và anh ấy có cùng tầm nhìn với tôi mà tôi đã có, Và phần còn lại là lịch sử.”

 

 

 

“Tôi thấy James như một viên kim cương thô,” Shaw nói. “Anh ta có sự kết hợp, tốc độ và sức mạnh mà bạn không thấy ở hạng cân nặng. Anh ấy có cái đó “nó” yếu tố mà tôi đã thấy với Kimbo Slice. Tôi đủ may mắn để ký Kimbo khỏi những trận đánh nhau được xem trên Youtube. Khi Kimbo bước vào một căn phòng, bạn cảm thấy sự hiện diện và năng lượng. Tôi thấy có rất nhiều phẩm chất giống nhau về việc James là kiểu người thu hút. Bất cứ ai nhầm James với một cầu thủ bóng đá hoặc một võ sĩ hỗn hợp chắc chắn sẽ bó tay trước võ đài quyền anh. Đây là một vận động viên blue-chip, ” Shaw nói, người lớn lên trong môn thể thao này như cha mình, Gary Shaw, đã là một trong những nhà vận động hàng đầu trên thế giới trong ba thập kỷ qua.

 

 

 

 

 

Công việc đầu tiên của Shaw là đưa James đến với huấn luyện viên phù hợp. Nhập Justin Fortune.

 

 

 

“Tôi đã biết Justin từ rất lâu rồi. Vừa là một huấn luyện viên tăng cường sức mạnh, vừa là một huấn luyện viên. Hầu hết sẽ biết anh ấy ở bên cạnh Manny Pacquiao, nhưng có lẽ hầu hết mọi người không biết rằng Justin là một khách hàng tiềm năng nặng ký, người đã chiến đấu với Lennox Lewis. Điều tôi thích nhất về sự kết hợp này là Justin cũng là một đối thủ nặng ký hơn, nhưng một tay đấm mạnh mẽ. Những năm kinh nghiệm của anh ấy là những gì sẽ giúp James đẩy nhanh sự phát triển của anh ấy trong thể thao. Là một đội, chúng tôi có mục tiêu mang chức vô địch thế giới trở lại Los Angeles và đúng lúc,” tiếp tục Shaw.

 

 

 

Động thái tiếp theo của Shaw là tìm người quảng bá phù hợp để Wilson ký hợp đồng, và bộ đôi đã tìm thấy một trong những công ty lớn nhất trên thế giới được quan tâm.

 

 

 

“Rất nhiều nhà quảng bá đã nhìn vào tôi. Tôi đã gặp Golden Boy, và họ đã nhìn thấy tài năng và tầm nhìn của tôi và tôi cảm thấy rằng họ sẽ biến điều đó thành hiện thực cho tôi, và đưa tôi đến chức vô địch hạng nặng của thế giới,” Wilson nói.

 

 

 

Shaw nói rất cao về cuộc hôn nhân giữa võ sĩ và người quảng bá.

 

 

“Đó là tình huống hoàn hảo. Golden Boy Promotion là một trong những công ty hàng đầu trong lĩnh vực thể thao của chúng tôi khi nói đến các công ty quảng cáo. Trong tình huống này, kết quả là bạn có một triển vọng tuyệt vời từ Los Angeles chiến đấu từ một công ty nổi tiếng thế giới có trụ sở tại Los Angeles. Hiện tại Golden Boy đang đứng đầu môn thể thao. Họ quảng bá được cho là võ sĩ hàng đầu thế giới ở Canelo Alvarez, và họ có thể đảm bảo cho anh ta một thỏa thuận chưa từng có với DAZN. Chúng tôi mong chờ những cơ hội sẽ đến với James, và để giới thiệu James’ bộ kỹ năng phi thường. tôi có 100% niềm tin vào Oscar (De La Hoya), Eric (Gomez) và Robert (Diaz) dẫn James đến chức vô địch hạng nặng của thế giới, và giúp tối đa hóa tiềm năng thu nhập của anh ấy. Los Angeles chưa bao giờ có nhà vô địch hạng nặng, vì vậy, thật hợp lý khi người đầu tiên sẽ tham gia cùng một đội hoàn chỉnh có trụ sở tại Los Angeles với James, Justin, Cậu bé vàng và bản thân tôi. ”

 

 

 

“Điều tôi muốn mọi người biết về James là bên trong những sợi dây, anh ấy là một bộ phim nổi bật về con người và quái vật, vì vậy đừng nháy mắt. Nhưng bên ngoài sàn đấu, anh ấy là một người cha tuyệt vời đối với ba cậu con trai của mình. Một diễn giả truyền động lực to lớn, và là một hình mẫu tích cực cho các thành phố nội đô và phần còn lại của thế giới. Anh ấy rất quan tâm đến cộng đồng và giúp đỡ giới trẻ. Đặc biệt là những đứa hay bị bắt nạt.”

 

 

 

Wilson nói chuyện với nhiều thanh niên về Chống bắt nạt. “Tôi thực hiện rất nhiều bài phát biểu và hội thảo về chống bắt nạt. Tôi đến rất nhiều trường học và nhà nuôi dưỡng và kể cho họ nghe câu chuyện của tôi. Tôi nghĩ tôi có thể là người để bọn trẻ nhìn lên và cho chúng biết rằng chúng có tương lai dù chúng ở trong hoàn cảnh nào. Tôi nói với lũ trẻ rằng đôi tay của bạn là vũ khí, miệng của bạn là một vũ khí, và nơi duy nhất để chiến đấu là bên trong võ đài.”

 

 

 

Khi được hỏi anh ấy muốn chiến đấu với ai và mục tiêu của anh ấy trong môn thể thao này là gì, Wilson nói, “Tôi không muốn chống lại bất kỳ ai cụ thể, Tôi đang tìm cách chiến đấu với tất cả chúng. Quan trọng nhất, Tôi ở đây để cung cấp cho người hâm mộ một cái gì đó để xem. Nó là 365 ngày của “Quái thú” mùa. Đó là Chế độ Quái thú hoặc Chế độ Không.”

fighter. 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.

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

Để lại một bình luận

SANTA MONICA (Tháng ba 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: Kimbo Slice, Gabriel Gonzaga, Ben Rothwell, Derrick Lewis, Brendan Schaub, Roy Nelson, Shawn Jordan and Travis Brown amongst others.

 

Prior to competing in MMA, Mitrione earned a scholarship to play defensive tackle for the Purdue Boilermakers football team, not far from where he grew up in Springfield, Xấu. Sau đại học, 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, chống lại Joey Beltran và Cheick Kongo, both of whom currently fight for Bellator MMA. His entertaining fighting style has earned him recognition with “Performance of the Night” (hai lần) và “Fight of the Night” giải thưởng.

 

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, như Sergei Kharitonov joined the fray in February. The division is currently championed by Vitaly Minakov, and includes other top names like Slice, Bobby Lashley, Cheick Kongo, Vinicius “Spartan,” Tony Johnson, Justin Wren, Dan Charles và Augusto Sakai.
