PARK CITY, Май. (Февруари 11, 2018) – U.S. Olympian and hometown favorite Нико Ернандес captured the vacant International Boxing Association (IBA) Americas flyweight title in his fourth professional fight, headlining last night’s “KO Night Boxing” злато & Слава” карта, при Хартман Арена в Парк Сити, Канзас.
Представено от: “KO Night Boxing LLC,” the card was taped live to be shown at a later date on CBS Sports Network. “KO Night Boxing” злато & Слава” карта, presented by KO Night Boxing LLC,
На 22-годишният Ернандес (4-0, 3 Нокаута) stopped last-minute replacement, игра победител “Бикът” Торес, в петия кръг.
Ернандес’ оригиналната противник, Hungarian champion Joseph Ajtai (19-9, 12 Нокаута), never made it to Wichita due to a series of unfortunate circumstances. Ajtai lost one day in Frankfurt, Германия, after leaving his passport on the plane he took from Budapest. Once he landed in Chicago в сряда, he was tied up by a visa issue at U.S. Customs. He missed his connecting flight to Wichita and because of snowstorms that grounded numerous flights, including those to Wichita, Ajtai never made it out of O’Hare Airport, stranded there for several days.
The IBA granted a special exception for Hernandez to fight Torres, due to these unforeseen problems, with the agreement that Hernandez would next fight Ajtai for an IBA title.
It was an electric night,” промотор John Andersen каза. “Отново, Nico made the proper adjustment that can be credited to his amateur pedigree. In the amateurs, opponents often change at the last moment and Nico has overcome many obstacles during his boxing career. We’re going to give Josef another title shot against Nico in April or May. They have unfinished business together!
I was very pleased with Nico’s performance. It’s the best I’ve seen him. He was unbelievable in every way, on point throughout the fight. We also want to give Torres credit for accepting the fight on such late notice.
Hernandez came out fast from the start, battering Torresbody with tremendous combinations, and he never let up. Torres absorbed punishment but remained upright, but IBA referee стив Smoger halted the action in the fifth round for Torres’ безопасност.
I’m not leaving this belt,” Hernandez commented at the post fight press conference as he handled his IBA Americas belt. “It’s going everywhere with me. I was looking forward to this fight and I’m ready to continue my success. This is the first (заглавното колан) of many. I got what I worked hard for. I want to thank my coaches, all the work paid off, and now I have this (заглавното колан).”
В съвместно черта събитието, Минеаполис полусредна категория Javonte Starks (13-2, 7 Нокаута) and Mexican veteran Сезар Сориано (28-36-2, 17 Нокаута) fought to a six-round majority draw.

Another pro-debuting California fighter, младши полусредна категория Чаз Масиас, нужен само1:20 to knockout Omaha’s Corey Roberts.

KO Night Boxing signs “Драконът” Popular Canadian junior welterweight Steve Claggett

LAS VEGAS (Януари 25, 2018) — KO Night Boxing LLC announced it has signed popular Canadian junior welterweight Стив “Драконът” Claggett на изключителна промоционална договор.

The Las Vegas-based company also has 2016 Olympic bronze medalist and undefeated Wichita flyweight, Нико Ернандес (3-0), 2 Нокаута), among its growing stable of professional boxers.
The 28-year-old Claggett (26-4-1, 17 Нокаута), борба от Калгари, is a fan-favorite because of his aggressive, non-stop style. Since the ultra-aggressive Claggett moved back down one division to junior welterweight, Claggett is a perfect 3-0 (1 KO), including a pair of title-winning 10-round decisions over previously unbeaten opponents,Yves Ulysse, Jr. (14-0) за свободната International федерация по бокс (IBF) North American super lightweight title, както и Еманюел Роблес (15-0-1) for the vacant World Boxing Association (WBA) NABA USA super lightweight crown.
I’m excited to be signed by John Andersen and KO Night Boxing,” Claggett said. “There were no guarantees (without a promoter). I’ve always had the talent but never the structure. I’ll have that now, въпреки че. It was always difficult making fights with long layoffs, dates falling through, and offers on short notice. I’ve only been able to show a little of what I’m capable. All I’ve ever wanted is a fair shake and this opportunity will allow me to show what I can do. This year is going to be big for me and KO Night Boxing.
I’m just approaching my prime. I’ve only been working with my trainer, Vlad Goldenstein, for a little more than a year, но аз съм 3-0 with him and have won two belts. Аз съм от старата школа боец, action-packed and who brings the pace. This is a great for me and my boxing career.
We’re taking a big step in the right direction by signing Steve,” Claggett’s new promoter Andersen commented. “Развълнуван съм. Steve deserves this opportunity and we’re going to deliver for him.
Steve is an action fighter, always coming forward, and he hasn’t been in a bad fight during the three years I’ve known him. He took a risk but really opened some eyes with his performance against Ulysse. What an accomplishment fighting an undefeated fighter in his backyard. He took a big risk and got a big win. And now he’s beaten the man (Ulysse) who has beaten the man (21-0 Клетус Seldin, WDEC10, Декември. 16, 2017 на HBO). Steve’s undefeated on this run as a junior welterweight, beating two previously unbeaten opponents, and he deserves more recognition and a shot at a big fight.
Steve’s an animal in the squared circle and the farthest thing from it outside the ring,” Claggett’s manager Max Matheny добави. “He has all the attributes of a champion. His boxing IQ and ability to adapt under pressure makes Claggett a serious challenge. He can beat anybody in the division on any given night. We’ve had a multitude of promotional offers to consider at the end of a strong 2017 and are very excited to align with KO Night Boxing. They are going to give us the opportunities to show the world how good ‘The Dragonreally is. His signature is turning into an autograph in 2018, mark my words.
The boxing irony is that Ulysse, not Claggett, is now world ranked. Considering the half-Chinese, half-European Claggett beat Ulysse in his Montreal hometown, Steve proved that he’ll fight anybody, навсякъде, unlike many fighters who make that claim but don’t back it up. “Me and my team aren’t afraid to fight anybody,” he spoke about his most significant fight to date. “Bring it on! I’m willing to fight in hostile territory against an A-side fighter. We don’t pick and choose. Too many fighters pad their records, but that only upsets fans, and delays fights. I’m looking for tough fights to judge how much I’ve grown. I’d love to fight the top guys.
My fight with Ulysse was my biggest but not best fight. I thought I boxed a little robotic and fell back into some old habits. I’d give myself a B- for that fight. I got the win and put on a great show that was fast paced. Ulysse and Robles box, run and move. I’d like an opponent who comes to me, stays in the pocket, and fights. I know it’ll be a helluva fight.
Maybe Claggett’s next fight will be on a higher platform, може би, against a legitimate fighter’s fighter like Steve.

2016 Olympic bronze medalist Nico Hernandez & Hungarian champion Jozsef Ajtai have taken different paths into pro ranks

“KO Night Boxing: злато & Слава” за
vacant IBA Americas flyweight title
Декември. 2 при Хартман Арена в Парк Сити, KS
PARK CITY, Канзас (Ноември 20, 2017) – USA Olympian and hometown hero Нико Ернандес and Hungarian flyweight champion Йожеф “Малко червено” Ajtai took completely different paths into the professional ranks.
Ернандес срещу, Ajtai is the eight-round main event for the vacant International Boxing Association (IBA) Americas flyweight title fight, Събота нощ, Декември 2, на “KO Night Boxing: злато & Слава” карта, при Хартман Арена в Парк Сити, Канзас.
“KO Night Boxing: злато & Слава” е презентация на KO Night Boxing LLC., във връзка с Хартман Arena, и спонсорирана частично от Twister City Harley-Davidson Metro PCS, Mort’s Cigar Bar иJimmy’s Egg.
Действието ще се залепил на живо за бъдещо излъчва по CBS Sports Network.
The 21-year-old Hernandez (3-0, 2 Нокаута), борба от Уичита, was a decorated amateur boxer who compiled a sterling 123-12 рекорд, highlighted by his bronze-medal winning performance at the 2016 Олимпийските игри в Бразилия. Hernandez made his pro debut last March. All his fights have been at home, each has been in the main event, and on national television. His fight against Ajtai, обаче, will be his first title fight, coming in only his fourth pro bout.
Ajtai, който е една година и шест дни по-млад от Ернандес, made his professional debut 2 ½ years ago, and he’s already fought in five title fights.
Ернандес’ amateur pedigree versus Ajtai’s pro experience?
I feel like I’m already at the level of a lot of top pro fighters,” Hernandez said. The only advantage he has is he’s used to fighting more rounds than I (this is Nico’s first scheduled 8-rounder), but I don’t plan on letting it go the distance anyways.
I feel blessed to have this IBA title fight opportunity so early in my pro career. It honestly couldn’t come any faster. I do believe it will be special and open a tot of opportunities to fight bigger names once I win this fight. A win should open-up additional title fight opportunities, both overseas and, да се надяваме, back here at home to help us continue building Wichita into a fight town.
Ajtai (19-9, 12 Нокаута) has already had 28 про битки, including a full 10-round distance loss by decision last year at Madison Square Garden in New York City to two-time Olympic gold medalist Шиминг Зоу, Бившата световна Boxing организация (WBO) Flyweight световен шампион. The Hungarian has fought at home in Hungary, as well as on the road in the United Kingdom, Испания, Германия, Украйна и Словакия. A trip to America’s heartland doesn’t faze him in the least.
He will be at home, where everybody wants to fight, but this isn’t a problem for me,” Ajtai explained. “I know he is a good boxer, but I will try to be a bit better December 2ри. When my condition is good, as it is for this fight, nobody likes to fight me.
“Това е голяма възможност за мен. It’s always difficult to beat a good fighter but doing so is real success. Fighting Shiming Zou in only my fourth fight was very nice for me. I want that feeling again in this fight against Nico.
Hernandez realizes that this fight could be his last at home for a while, due to the lack of quality American flyweights, and that most world-class fighters in his weight class are from Central America, Thailand and Japan.
I don’t think I’ll have many more fights at home,” Hernandez admits. “I don’t think that will matter too much because I feel more pressure fighting at home than elsewhere. I will miss everyone cheering my name like they do at home. I think I’ll be traveling more to fight bigger names to work my way up the ladder until I’m at the top.
I think the early rounds in this fight (срещу. Ajtai) will be a chess match because, from what I’ve seen, he runs a lot. I feel that once I start landing my body shots, he’ll slowdown in the latter rounds. и, like I’ve said, I don’t plan on this fight going the distance.
Ajtai, разбира се, isn’t traveling all the way to Kansas to visit Dorothy or the Wizard of Oz, Той идва, за да спечели!
“Нико няма да знае къде ще бъда на ринга,” Ajtai прогнозира. “Когато той изглежда в ляво за мен, Аз ще ида надясно; когато той се опитва да ме намери в дясно, Аз ще бъда в ляво. Когато той иска да си почине, Аз ще излезе пробиване; когато той иска да удрям, той няма да ме намери.
“Имам план за тази битка и аз съм сигурен, че той прави, както и. Но, в пръстена, само план един боец ​​може да успее. Това ще бъде един добър бой, но не мога да обещая на обществото, че Нико ще бъде победител.”
Пълната “злато & Слава” card will be announced later this week. Всички битки и бойци са обект на промяна.

Despite being younger than Hernandez by almost a year to the day, Ajtai (19-9, 12 Нокаута) has already had 28 про битки, including a full 10-round distance loss by decision last year to two-time Olympic gold medalist Шиминг Зоу, Бившата световна Boxing организация (WBO) Flyweight световен шампион.
By far, Nico is fighting the toughest opponent of his pro career,” Ернандес’ промотор John Andersen (“KO Night Boxing LLC) каза. “Ajtai has much more experience as a pro than Nico, plus he went the distance against a two-time Olympic gold medalist, Zou. Ajtai is a busy fighter with a good knockout ratio (63%). This fight is going to tell us a lot about Nico, especially his power at 112 паунда.
Nico fighting for a title in only his fourth pro fight proves that all our hard efforts of KO Night Boxing and Team Nico has paid off quickly and we’re grateful that the IBA has given him this great opportunity. I didn’t realize the high quality of champions the IBA has had in the past and we’re proud that Nico can someday join this group. In the flyweight division, Nico may enter world title fight shot discussions earlier than I had originally thought, which was in his third year as a pro. An impressive performance against Ajtai could position him for a world title fight next year with less than 10 fights under his belt.
We’re excited to have an American Olympian fighting for our first Americas title,” IBA PresidentJ.C. Куреж добави. “Nico Hernandez is an Olympic bronze medalist and we’re hopeful that he will develop into an IBA world champion in the not too distant future. His amateur pedigree speaks for itself and we’re very happy to have this young man fighting for the IBA Americas title.
IBA world champions during the past quarter-century include Hall-of-Famers Оскар де ла Хоя,George Foreman, Roberto Duran и Артуро Гати, as well as stars such as Roy Jones, Jr.,Бърнард Хопкинс, Шейн Моузли, James Toney, Микел Кеслер, Ерик Моралес, Диего Коралес, Jose Luis Castillo, Глен Джонсън и Antonio Tarver.

Nico had to step up, fighting a new opponent on 24-hour notice, along with the difference in their weights,” промотор John Andersen коментира. “Everything turned out okay but it wasn’t an easy fight. My palms were a little sweaty in the first round when he got hit hard, but Nico pulled out the win and he’ll be an even better fighter because of this experience.
