PARK CITY, Мај. (Февруари 11, 2018) – U.S. Olympian and hometown favorite Нико Хернандез captured the vacant International Boxing Association (IBA) Americas flyweight title in his fourth professional fight, headlining last night’s “КО ноќ Бокс” злато & слава” картичка, на Хартман Арена во Градскиот парк, Канзас.
Овозможено од: “KO Night Boxing LLC,” the card was taped live to be shown at a later date on CBS Sports Network. “КО ноќ Бокс” злато & слава” картичка, presented by KO Night Boxing LLC,
На 22-годишниот Хернандез (4-0, 3 КО) stopped last-minute replacement, игра Victor “Бикот” Torres, во петтиот круг.
Хернандез’ оригинални противник, Hungarian champion Joseph Ajtai (19-9, 12 КО), never made it to Wichita due to a series of unfortunate circumstances. Ajtai lost one day in Frankfurt, Германија, after leaving his passport on the plane he took from Budapest. Once he landed in Chicago во средата, 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 рече. “Уште еднаш, 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 Torres’ body 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’ безбедност.
“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).”
Во ко-одликуваат настан, Минеаполис боксер од полусредна категорија Javonte STARKS (13-2, 7 КО) and Mexican veteran Cesar Soriano (28-36-2, 17 КО) fought to a six-round majority draw.
Bakersfield, CA pro-debuting Дерик Клејтон upset Milwaukee junior welterweight Akeem Црното (3-2, 1 КО), registering a second-round technical knockout.
Вичита средна Џеф Штурм (2-0, 1 КО) остана непоразен, stopping intrastate rival Brian Clements, на Топика, halfway through the opening round.
Another pro-debuting California fighter, помлади боксер од полусредна категорија Chazz Масиас, needed only1:20 to knockout Omaha’s Corey Roberts.
Fighting for the first time in 5 ½ години, Вашингтон D.C. тешка категорија Морис “Товарен воз” Brerm (14-2-1, 10 КО) took out 300-pounder Ричард “Silverback” Carmack (15-13-1, 12 КО) во првиот круг.

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

Остави коментар

LAS VEGAS (Јануари 25, 2018) — KO Night Boxing LLC announced it has signed popular Canadian junior welterweight Стив “The Dragon” Claggett на ексклузивна промотивна договор.

The Las Vegas-based company also has 2016 Olympic bronze medalist and undefeated Wichita flyweight, Нико Хернандез (3-0), 2 КО), among its growing stable of professional boxers.
The 28-year-old Claggett (26-4-1, 17 КО), 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 КО), including a pair of title-winning 10-round decisions over previously unbeaten opponents,Ив Ulysse, Џуниор. (14-0) за испразнетото Меѓународната боксерска федерација (ИБФ) North American super lightweight title, како и Emmanuel Robles (15-0-1) for the vacant World Boxing Association (ВБА) 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, иако. 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 јас сум 3-0 with him and have won two belts. Јас сум старата школа борец, 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. “Јас сум возбуден. 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 Селдин, 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 додадени. “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 Dragon’ really 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, насекаде, 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, можеби, 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

“КО ноќ Бокс: злато & слава” за
vacant IBA Americas flyweight title
Декември. 2 на Хартман Арена во Градскиот парк, KS
PARK CITY, Канзас (Ноември 20, 2017) – USA Olympian and hometown hero Нико Хернандез and Hungarian flyweight champion Јожеф “Малата Црвена” 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, Сабота ноќ, Декември 2, на “КО ноќ Бокс: злато & слава” картичка, на Хартман Арена во Градскиот парк, Канзас.
“КО ноќ Бокс: злато & слава” е презентација на КО ноќ Бокс ДОО., во соработка со Хартман Арена, и делумно спонзорирани од Twister Град Харли-Дејвидсон Metro PCS, Mort’s Cigar Bar иJimmy’s Egg.
Акцијата ќе се снима во живо за иднината на проветрување на КБС Спорт мрежа.
The 21-year-old Hernandez (3-0, 2 КО), се борат надвор од Вичита, was a decorated amateur boxer who compiled a sterling 123-12 рекорд, highlighted by his bronze-medal winning performance at the 2016 Олимписките игри во Бразил. 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, Меѓутоа, will be his first title fight, coming in only his fourth pro bout.
Ajtai, кој е една година и шест дена помлад од Хернандез, made his professional debut 2 ½ years ago, and he’s already fought in five title fights.
Хернандез’ 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, hopefully, back here at home to help us continue building Wichita into a fight town.”
Ajtai (19-9, 12 КО) has already had 28 про тепачки, 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 Zou Shiming, поранешниот светски боксерски Организација (WBO) мува светски шампион. The Hungarian has fought at home in Hungary, as well as on the road in the United Kingdom, Шпанија, Германија, Украина и Словачка. 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.
“Ова е голема можност за мене. 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 (наспроти. 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, се разбира, isn’t traveling all the way to Kansas to visit Dorothy or the Wizard of Oz, тој доаѓа да се победи!
“Нико нема да знам каде ќе биде во рингот,” Ajtai предвиде. “Кога тој гледа кон лево за мене, Јас ќе одам на правото; кога тој се обидува да ме најдете на десната, Јас ќе бидам на левата страна. Кога тој сака да се одмори, Јас ќе излезе удирање; кога тој сака да стиска, тој нема да ме најдете.

The full “злато & слава” card will be announced later this week. Сите борби и борците се предмет на промена.

PARK CITY, KANSAS (Октомври 23, 2017) – 2016 Olympic bronze medalist Нико Хернандез will be fighting for his first professional title on Сабота, Декември 2, when he takes on Hungarian invaderЈожеф “Малата Црвена” Ajtai in the eight-round main event for the vacant International Boxing Association (IBA) Flyweight Championship, тапацир “КО ноќ Бокс: злато & слава” на Хартман Арена во Градскиот парк, Канзас.

“КО ноќ Бокс: злато & слава” е презентација на КО ноќ Бокс ДОО., во соработка со Хартман Арена, и делумно спонзорирани од Twister Град Харли-Дејвидсон Metro PCS, Mort’s Cigar Bar и Jimmy Egg.

Акцијата ќе се снима во живо за иднината на проветрување на КБС Спорт мрежа.
The 21-year-old Hernandez (3-0, 2 КО), се борат надвор од Вичита, 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 23то, Hernandez was forced to fight late replacement Kendrick “Uprising” Latchman who outweighed the celebrated American Olympian by more than 10 фунти. Hernandez won a six-round unanimous decision by scores of 60-54 и 59-55 два пати.
Despite being younger than Hernandez by almost a year to the day, Ajtai (19-9, 12 КО) has already had 28 про тепачки, including a full 10-round distance loss by decision last year to two-time Olympic gold medalist Zou Shiming, поранешниот светски боксерски Организација (WBO) мува светски шампион.
“By far, Nico is fighting the toughest opponent of his pro career,” Хернандез’ промотор John Andersen (“KO Night Boxing LLC) рече. “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 фунти.
“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. Courreges додадени. “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 Хоја,Џорџ Форман, Роберто Дуран и Артуро Гати, as well as stars such as Рој Џонс, Џуниор,Бернард Хопкинс, Шејн Mosely, Џејмс Toney, Mikkel Kessler, Eric Morales, Диего Corrales, Хозе Луис Кастиљо, Глен Џонсон и Антонио Tarver.
Other fights on the “злато & слава” card will soon be announced. Сите борби и борците се предмет на промена.

“KO NIGHT BOXING” RESULTS FROM KANSAS
PALM CITY, Канзас (Септември 24, 2017) – The name of last night’s “КО ноќ Бокс: Step Up” event certainly was appropriate as 2016 Olympic bronze medalist Нико Хернандез had to overcome a major obstacle to remain undefeated at Hartman Arena in Palm City, Канзас.
“КО ноќ Бокс: Step Up!” was a presentation of KO Night Boxing LLC., in association with Roc Nation Sports and Hartman Arena, sponsored by Mort’s Cigar Bar, Jimmy Egg and Twister City Harley-Davidson. The action was taped live for future airing on CBS Sports Network.
Свети. Louis southpaw Kendrick “Uprising” Latchman outweighed regular flyweight Hernandez by more than 10 pounds when the two fighters entered the ring because Hernandez’ scheduled opponent, Basyzbek Baratov (2-1-2), abruptly pulled out of the fight after the weigh in due to a contractual disagreement. Hernandez weighed in at 113 фунти, Baratov was 112, which was the contracted weight. The Kansas Athletic Commission, Меѓутоа, automatically allows one-pound over for all non-title fights. Baratov refused to fight but Latchman agreed to fight at a 125-pound catchweight. Hernandez gained four pounds and the fight was on.
Wichita hero Hernandez was unmoved by the late change, largely due to his standout amateur career, in which his opponents often changed at the last moment. Latchman (1-5-1, 1 КО) is a pro boxer-MMA hybrid fighter who is 6-3 (5 КО) во ММА, including a 55-second stoppage of 14-7-1 Cody Land минатата јули.
Latchman buzzed Hernandez in the first round, much to the chagrin of the Hernandez’ loud hometown crowd. САД. Olympian displayed a good chin and went on to win a six-round unanimous decision to improve his pro record to 3-0 (2 КО).
“They (his corner and fans) were nervous,” the 21-year-old Hernandez said after the fight, “но не бев. My coach (father Lewis Hernandez) told me to feint and go in, but I lunged a little too much. Еј, I’m staying in my division (мува) before moving up in weight.”
“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. His father said Nico had never been hit like that before. It was a good card and the crowed was really into it.”
KO Night Boxing LLC announced that Hernandez would return Декември 2 to headline another show at Hartman Arena.
USBA No. 2- rated featherweight Tramaine “The Might Midget” Вилијамс (13-0, 5 КО), fighting out of New Haven (КТ), cruised to his 13та victory without a defeat, taking a one-sided 10-round unanimous decision over Derrick Murray (13-3, 5 КО), in the co-featured event.
Key West, FL welterweight Armando “Господин: Алварез (17-0, 11 КО) остана непоразен, winning a 10-round unanimous decision against Hungarian champion Gabor “Squirrel” Gorbics (23-8, 14 КО) in a competitive Special Welterweight Attraction. Alvarez is the WBC Latino welterweight title holder.
Undefeated Chinese heavyweight prospect Zhilei “Big Bang” Zhang (18-0, 14 КО), the reigning WBO Oriental champion, needed only 2:28 to stop veteran Byron “Мечката” Polley(30-22-1, 13 КО). Zhang, as well as Williams, are promoted by Roc Nation Sports.
In the most dramatic fight of the night, Los Angeles heavyweight Scott Alexander (13-2-2, 7 КО) rebounded from being decked, as well as a pre-fight cut, to knockout 361-pound Ричард “Silverback” Carmack (15-12-1, 12 КО) во вториот круг. Alexander suffered a cut on his shin that resulted from a step breaking as he entered the ring.
Milwaukee junior middleweight Akeem Црното (3-1, 1 КО) won three of four rounds on all three judges’ scorecards for a four-round unanimous decision over Marcus Neal (2-2, 2 КО).
Wichita light heavyweight Jeff Strum pitched a shutout in his pro debut against Topeka’s (KS) previously unbeaten Chris Ortega (3-1-1), winning all four rounds in impressive fashion.

“КО ноќ Бокс: Step Up!” на Хартман Арена во Градскиот парк, KS
PARK CITY, Канзас (Август 10, 2017) – KO Night Boxing LLC and Hartman Arena hosted a private media luncheon today to announce the return of 2016 Olympic bronze medalist Нико Хернандез for his third professional fight on Сабота, Септември 23, тапацир “КО ноќ Бокс: Step Up!” на Хартман Арена во Градскиот парк, Канзас.
“КО ноќ Бокс: Step Up!” е презентација на КО ноќ Бокс ДОО., во соработка со Хартман Арена, Mort’s Cigar Bar and Jimmy Egg.
Wichita-native Hernandez (2-0, 2 КО) will face the stiffest test of his young pro career, Mexican flyweight Франциско “Воинот” Lapizco (8-5, 2 КО), in the six-round main event.
“I’m very fortunate that my promoter, John Andersen(КО ноќ Бокс), has worked hard to make my third pro fight at home,” Hernandez said. “I’m very excited to be able to show boxing at its best.
“My opponent has never been stopped. Очигледно, he has more professional experience than me, and I understand he likes putting pressure on his opponent. I want to be the first to stop this guy! I also want the boxing world to know I’m coming for belts. Champions should get ready for Nico Hernandez.”
In his professional debut on March 25та, Hernandez knocked out Patrick Gutierrez во четвртиот круг, and this past June 17та at Hartman Arena, the 21-year-old U.S. Olympian stopped previously undefeated Jose Rodriguez in the third round of the main event.
Lapizco, 22, has already defeated an unbeaten opponent, Cesar Sustaita (3-0), three years ago at Ontario, Калифорнија. His last fight was this past January at home in Sinaloa, Мексико, in which Lapizco won a six-round unanimous decision over Jairo Miranda.
“This fight is a step up for Nico against a proven opponent who goes rounds,” Andersen noted. “He has already upset an undefeated fighter. It’s time for Nico to step up, as well as the city of Wichita, in terms of supporting him. This is a major event on September 23то that will bring national attention, not only for Nico, but to Wichita.
“We have an opportunity to put Nico, all of Kansas, on the national map in boxing. We have a multi-fight deal to showcase Nico at Hartman Arena. After the September 23то шоу, we’ll announce his final fight of 2017. We need people to turnout September 23то at Hartman Arena to continue promoting Nico at home.”
