PARK CITY, Mei. (Februari 11, 2018) – DIRI KITA. Olympian and hometown favorite Nico Hernandez captured the vacant International Boxing Association (IBA) Americas flyweight title in his fourth professional fight, headlining last night’s “KO Malam Boxing” Emas & Kejayaan” kartu, di Hartman Arena di Park City, Kansas.

The Hernandez 22 tahun (4-0, 3 Biaya) stopped last-minute replacement, permainan Victor “Banteng” Torres, di babak kelima.
Hernandez’ lawan asli, Hungarian champion Joseph Ajtai (19-9, 12 Biaya), never made it to Wichita due to a series of unfortunate circumstances. Ajtai lost one day in Frankfurt, Jerman, after leaving his passport on the plane he took from Budapest. Once he landed in Chicago di hari Rabu, 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,” promotor John Andersen tersebut. “Sekali lagi, 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 Steve Smoger halted the action in the fifth round for Torres’ keselamatan.
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 (title belt) 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 (title belt).”
Dalam acara co-fitur, Minneapolis welter Javonte Starks (13-2, 7 Biaya) and Mexican veteran Cesar Soriano (28-36-2, 17 Biaya) fought to a six-round majority draw.
Bakersfield, CA pro-debuting Derrick Clayton upset Milwaukee junior welterweight Akeem Hitam (3-2, 1 KO), registering a second-round technical knockout.
Wichita menengah Jeff Sturm (2-0, 1 KO) tetap tak terkalahkan, stopping intrastate rival Brian Clements, dari Topeka, halfway through the opening round.

Tanda KO Night Boxing “The Dragon” Kelas welter junior Kanada yang populer, Steve Claggett

LAS VEGAS (Bulan Januari 25, 2018) — KO Night Boxing LLC announced it has signed popular Canadian junior welterweight Steve “The Dragon” Claggett dengan kontrak promosi eksklusif.

The Las Vegas-based company also has 2016 Olympic bronze medalist and undefeated Wichita flyweight, Nico Hernandez (3-0), 2 Biaya), among its growing stable of professional boxers.
The 28-year-old Claggett (26-4-1, 17 Biaya), fighting out of Calgary, 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) untuk Federasi Tinju Internasional kosong (IBF) North American super lightweight title, sebaik Emmanuel Robles (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, meskipun. 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, tapi saya 3-0 with him and have won two belts. Saya seorang pejuang tua-sekolah, 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. “Saya senang. 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 Cletus Seldin, WDEC10, Desember. 16, 2017 di 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 ditambahkan. “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, dimana saja, 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, jangan jangan, against a legitimate fighter’s fighter like Steve.

2016 Peraih medali perunggu Olimpiade Nico Hernandez & Hungarian champion Jozsef Ajtai have taken different paths into pro ranks

“KO Malam Boxing: Emas & Kejayaan” untuk
vacant IBA Americas flyweight title
Desember. 2 di Hartman Arena di Park City, KS
PARK CITY, Kansas (November 20, 2017) – USA Olympian and hometown hero Nico Hernandez and Hungarian flyweight champion Jozsef “little Red” Ajtai took completely different paths into the professional ranks.
Hernandez vs., Ajtai is the eight-round main event for the vacant International Boxing Association (IBA) Americas flyweight title fight, Hari Sabtu malam, Bulan Desember 2, pada “KO Malam Boxing: Emas & Kejayaan” kartu, di Hartman Arena di Park City, Kansas.
“KO Malam Boxing: Emas & Kejayaan” adalah presentasi dari KO Malam Boxing LLC., dalam hubungan dengan Hartman Arena, dan disponsori sebagian oleh Twister Kota Harley-Davidson Metro PCS, Bar Cerutu Mort danJimmy’s Egg.
Tindakan ini akan direkam hidup untuk ditayangkan di masa depan CBS Sports Jaringan.
The 21-year-old Hernandez (3-0, 2 Biaya), berjuang keluar dari Wichita, was a decorated amateur boxer who compiled a sterling 123-12 catatan, highlighted by his bronze-medal winning performance at the 2016 Olimpiade di Brasil. 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, akan tetapi, will be his first title fight, coming in only his fourth pro bout.
Ajtai, yang satu tahun dan enam hari lebih muda dari Hernandez, made his professional debut 2 ½ tahun yang lalu, and he’s already fought in five title fights.
Hernandez’ amateur pedigree versus Ajtai’s pro experience?
I feel like I’m already at the level of a lot of top pro fighters,” Hernandez mengatakan. 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, semoga, back here at home to help us continue building Wichita into a fight town.
Ajtai (19-9, 12 Biaya) has already had 28 perkelahian pro, 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 Shiming Zou, mantan Organisasi Tinju Dunia (WBO) Juara dunia kelas terbang. The Hungarian has fought at home in Hungary, as well as on the road in the United Kingdom, Spanyol, Jerman, Ukraina dan Slowakia. 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 2nd. When my condition is good, as it is for this fight, nobody likes to fight me.
“Ini adalah kesempatan besar bagi saya. 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 (vs. 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. dan, like I’ve said, I don’t plan on this fight going the distance.
Ajtai, tentu saja, isn’t traveling all the way to Kansas to visit Dorothy or the Wizard of Oz, dia datang untuk menang!
“Nico tidak akan tahu di mana saya akan berada di ring,” Ajtai diprediksi. “Ketika ia melihat ke kiri untuk saya, Aku akan pergi ke kanan; ketika ia mencoba untuk menemukan saya di sebelah kanan, Aku akan berada di sebelah kiri. Ketika ia ingin beristirahat, Aku akan datang ke depan meninju; ketika ia ingin meninju, dia tidak akan menemukan saya.
“Saya memiliki rencana untuk pertarungan ini dan aku yakin dia tidak juga. Tapi, di atas ring, hanya rencana satu petarung bisa berhasil. Ini akan menjadi pertarungan yang bagus, tapi aku tidak bisa menjanjikan publik bahwa Nico akan menjadi pemenang.”
The full “Emas & Kejayaan” card will be announced later this week. Semua perkelahian dan pejuang tunduk pada perubahan.

PARK CITY, KANSAS (Bulan Oktober 23, 2017) – 2016 Peraih medali perunggu Olimpiade Nico Hernandez will be fighting for his first professional title on Hari Sabtu, Bulan Desember 2, when he takes on Hungarian invaderJozsef “little Red” Ajtai in the eight-round main event for the vacant International Boxing Association (IBA) Flyweight Championship, headlining “KO Malam Boxing: Emas & Kejayaan” di Hartman Arena di Park City, Kansas.

“KO Malam Boxing: Emas & Kejayaan” adalah presentasi dari KO Malam Boxing LLC., dalam hubungan dengan Hartman Arena, dan disponsori sebagian oleh Twister Kota Harley-Davidson Metro PCS, Bar Cerutu Mort dan Jimmy Egg.

Tindakan ini akan direkam hidup untuk ditayangkan di masa depan CBS Sports Jaringan.
The 21-year-old Hernandez (3-0, 2 Biaya), berjuang keluar dari Wichita, will be fighting in a scheduled eight-round bout for the first time. His three pro fights to date were all scheduled for six rounds and each was held in Kansas, the last two in his second home, Hartman Arena.
In his last fight this past September 23rd, Hernandez was forced to fight late replacement Kendrick “Uprising” Latchman who outweighed the celebrated American Olympian by more than 10 pon. Hernandez won a six-round unanimous decision by scores of 60-54 dan 59-55 dua kali.
Despite being younger than Hernandez by almost a year to the day, Ajtai (19-9, 12 Biaya) has already had 28 perkelahian pro, including a full 10-round distance loss by decision last year to two-time Olympic gold medalist Shiming Zou, mantan Organisasi Tinju Dunia (WBO) Juara dunia kelas terbang.
By far, Nico is fighting the toughest opponent of his pro career,” Hernandez’ promotor John Andersen (“KO Night Boxing LLC) tersebut. “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 pon.
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. Di divisi kelas terbang, 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. Courreges ditambahkan. “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 Oscar de la Hoya,George Foreman, Roberto Duran dan Arturo Gatti, as well as stars such as Roy Jones, Jr.,Bernard Hopkins, Shane Mosely, James Toney, Mikkel Kessler, Eric Morales, Diego Corrales, Jose Luis Castillo, Glen Johnson dan Antonio Tarver.
