Sampson Boxing undirritar veltivigtina Nicklaus Flaz við kynningarsamning
Sampson Boxing tilkynnir með stolti undirritun veltivigtarmannsins Nicklaus "La Bestia" Flaz á kynningarsamningi.

Síðan hann hlaut annan ósigur á ferlinum, skelfilegt rothögg í fyrstu lotu í október 2020, Flaz (12-2, 8 Kos), frá Vega Alta, Puerto Rico, hefur farið á tár, skoraði þrjá glæsilega sigra í uppnámi; slá út rótgróinn varanlegur öldungur og taka ósigraður 0 hljómplötur frá tveimur efnilegum uppákomum á leiðinni.

Hinn 28 ára gamli Flaz byrjaði ótrúlega sigurgöngu sína með því að skora meirihluta átta umferða dóms á þeim tíma. 13-0 Brian Ceballo í október 2022. Næst kom önnur átta lota meirihlutaákvörðun yfir þá 10-0 Jahi Tucker í júlí 2023. En Flaz fékk hnefaleikaheiminn að tala um síðasta miðvikudag (Mars 13) með því að verða sá fyrsti til að slá út hinn hæfa öldunga, Luke Santamaria, í aðalviðburði ProBoxTV viðburðar sem streymt er um allan heim í Plant City, Florida.

Santamaria hafði áður sigrað menn eins og þá 22-1 Mykal Fox, fyrrverandi heimsmeistari Devon Alexander og hélt WBC Continental Americas veltivigtarmeistaramótið með sigri á fyrrum heimsmeistaratitlinum Abel Ramos í febrúar 2022.

Lítur út eins og endurfædd útgáfa af sjálfum sér, Flaz notaði kraft sinn og hraða til að falla Santamaria þrisvar sinnum áður en hann stöðvaði sjöttu lotu. Flaz, sem byrjaði að æfa hnefaleika á aldrinum 16 og vann 88 hans 95 áhugamannabardaga þar á meðal tveir landsmeistaratitlar í röð, segir að hann sé loksins kominn með allt sem hann þarf til að verða alvarlegur leikmaður í 147 punda deildinni.

"Mér finnst frábært,“ sagði Flaz um að semja við Lewkowicz. „Hann var verkefnisstjórinn sem ég vildi frá upphafi ferils míns. Hann getur tekið mig á næsta stig og haldið mér eins virkum og ég þarf til að vera upp á mitt besta." Flaz bætir við að síðan tapaði fyrir KO (til Janelson Bocachica), hann hefur aftur helgað sig þjálfun með David Oyola yfirþjálfara og Belvin García aðstoðarþjálfara/stjórnanda í heimalandi sínu Púertó Ríkó og náð gríðarlegum árangri á öllum sviðum leiks síns..

Vinnan var á fullu gegn Santamaria, þar sem Flaz réð öllum þáttum baráttunnar gegn sterkum og virtum öldunga. „Mér finnst hnefaleikar ekki vera starf,“ sagði hinn öruggi Flaz. „Þetta er ástríða mín og ég elska hana. Ég er tilbúinn að byrja að klifra upp stigalistann og komast á heimsmeistaramótið og ég er með liðið til að gera það.”

“Að tapa gæti hafa hjálpað honum,“ sagði Lewkowicz um nýjasta undirskriftarmann sinn Flaz. „Hann var oföruggur, og það kostaði hann. Nú tekur hann engum léttilega og leggur á sig þá vinnu sem þarf til að verða meistari. Ég er mjög ánægður með að vera hluti af liði hans og mun leggja hart að mér til að hjálpa honum að gera hnefaleikadrauma sína að veruleika."

ShoBox: THE NEW GENERATION RETURNS WITH EXCITING 154-POUND PROSPECT CHARLES CONWELL FACING FELLOW UNBEATEN WENDY TOUSSAINT ON WEDNESDAY, Október 7

Quadrupleheader Features Total of Six Fighters with Undefeated Records

NEW YORK– September 19, 2020 -ShoBox: The New Generationreturns for the first time since March with a four-fight card headlined by exciting, undefeated super welterweight prospectsCharles Conwell ogWendyToussaint in a 10-round main-event bout on Wednesday, Október 7 lifa á Showtime ® (9 p.m. ET / PT) from the Mohegan Sun Casino in Uncasville, Conn.

The four-fight telecast will feature eight prospects who boast a combined record of 109-4-3, including six boxers who have yet to taste defeat at the professional level. The lastShoBox event was held March 13 in Hinckley, Frá., and was one of the final live sporting events to take place before the COVID-19 pandemic shut down the sports world for several months.

A decorated amateur and U.S. representative at the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio, the 22-year-old Conwell (12-0, 9 Kos) hails from Cleveland, Ohio, and will make his secondShoBox appearance – and first in nearly three years – when he takes on up-and-comingToussaint (12-0, 5 Kos) á 154 £.

The co-feature is another bout of unbeatens as Conwell’s half-brotherIsaiah Steen (14-0, 11 Kos) matches up againstKalvin Henderson (12-0-1, 8 Kos) in an eight-round super middleweight bout. TheShoBox event will open with two eight-round welterweight showdowns as Detroit’sJanelson Bocachica (15-0, 10 Kos) takes on fellow Puerto Rico nativeNicklaus Flaz (9-1, 7 Kos) og harður-hittingBrandun Lee (19-0, 17 Kos) aftur til ShoBox in the telecast opener againstJimmy Williams(16-3-2, 5 Kos).

“Charles Conwell is the quintessentialShoBox bardagamaður,” said Gordon Hall, executive producer forShoBox: The New Generation since its inception in 2001. “He had a successful amateur career and he has shown real promise in his pro campaign. Nú, he’ll face his first undefeated opponent in Haitian-born Wendy Toussaint who should be a tough test. In the co-feature another battle of unbeatens in Steen vs. Henderson and rounded out by promising prospect Janelson Bocachica and rising star Brandun Lee. These are the type of fight cards that make this series unique and important for the development of young fighters on both sides of the bout sheet.”

The event is promoted by Tony Holden Productions.

“I am happy to be back onShoBox, and I am going to put in a good performance and do what I do best,” said Conwell. “My opponent is undefeated, and he will come to win, but I think that I am just better overall and all around. I am a very smart boxer with fast hands and power. When people see me, they will see Aaron Pryor, Mike Tyson and Andre Ward rolled up into one! I am happy to be headliningShoBox and being able to show my talent to the whole world.”
