Oscar suffered an injury to his back in training and he’ll be ready to go in April,” Lewkowicz said. “He’s very sorry for the delay in the fight, but these things happen in boxing. He’s really looking forward to facing Gary Russell, Jr., but he wants to be completely healthy when they do meet.
Escandon, a 32-year-old Colombian with a record of 25-2 tare da 17 Kos, is the mandatory challenger for Russell’s featherweight championship. Jermell Charlo defending his 154-pound title against Charles Hatley will be the co-feature on the rescheduled card.
It’s definitely irritating,” Russell said. “But injuries happen especially when you have somebody pushing their body to the limit for a fight that is potentially life changing. It’s disappointing. It might not work out for him because I have a little more time to get ready.
We’re working with the venue and the network to find the earliest date that we can reschedule the show,” ya ce Tom Brown na TGB Promotions. “I feel terrible for the fighters who have been training so hard and now have to wait. Gary is really disappointed, but he understands that injuries are all a part of the sport. But Gary will be ready to go on the rescheduled date.
A new date for the fight will be announced shortly.

Lewkowicz Congratulates Oscar Escandon for Title-Winning Victory

Knockout Over Robinson Castellanos Makes Escandon the Second Sampson Boxing World Champion in Two Weeks
Promoter Sampson Lewkowicz of Sampson Boxing wishes to congratulate his fighter, Oscar Escandon, for his title-winning victory a ranar Asabar night in at the DC Armory in Washington, DC.
Escandon (25-2, 17 Kos), daga , stepped up a weight class and picked up the interim WBC World Featherweight Championship with a KO 7 over Mexico’s Robinson Castellanos. A powerful uppercut from Escandon ended matters at the 2:59 mark.
Tare da nasara, Escandon became the second Sampson Boxing fighter to win a world championship in the last two weeks. Mexico’s Hugo Ruiz won the WBC World Super Bantamweight title with a KO 1 over Julio Ceja.
I did this for my country of Colombia,” said Escandon. “I am proud to be fighting for them and it was their support that helped carry me though this tough fight.
“Na farko, my warmest congratulations to Oscar Escandon and his team, Ruben Guerrero and family,” ya ce Lewkowicz. “Oscar has made his entire country of Colombia proud by winning his second world championship for them.
Escandon also held the WBA World Super Bantamweight Title in 2014.

We will let Oscar enjoy his new belt for a little bit, but will soon go to work preparing him to meet the winner of the fight between full WBC Champion Gary Russell Jr. and Ireland’s Patrick Hyland on Afrilu 16. We would love for that fight to be in New York City, in front of the huge Colombian community.

Fonfara, of Chicago by way of Radon, Poland, dropped Chavez, of Culiacan, Sinaloa, Mexico, with a wide left hook 50 seconds into the ninth round before a boisterous crowd of 8,636 predominately-Chavez fans at StubHub Center. It was the first time in 52 professional fights that Chavez had hit the canvas from a punch.

 

Upon returning to the corner, Chavez could be heard on the telecast telling trainer Joe Goossen that he had hurt his right leg and could no longer continue. Lokacin daga baya, the fight was halted. The busier and more accurate fighter throughout, Fonfara was comfortably ahead on the three judgesscorecards by scored of 89-80 da kuma 88-81 twice after nine full rounds.

 

Offered an ecstatic Fonfara, who had his fair share of Polish fans at the venue: “I knew he was a tough fighter, quick and in good shape but when he hit me for the first time in the first round, I knew I was going to win this fight. He didn’t punch as hard as everybody said he did.

 

I saw his punches easily coming in. I know I threw more punches. I was a little surprised that he did not come out for the (10ga watan) but he was cut, had been getting beat up and had just got knocked down, so he knew what would happen if he came out.

 

Chavez said before the fight that he didn’t think I could take his body punches. I think I took them pretty good and passed that test.

 

I know there are things I can still work on in training to become a more complete boxer, ammayau da dare was a dream come true. I want a rematch with (Light Heavyweight World Champion) Adonis Stevenson.

 

Said Chavez, the son of legendary Mexican icon, Julio Cesar Chavez Sr. in the ring afterward and before he was taken to the hospital as a precautionary measure, “Maybe 170,172 pounds is too big for me, maybe I’ll go back down. I’m not sure what my future holds. It was a very tough fight. But I congratulate Andrzej.

 

Goossen told reporters afterward that he hadstopped the fight. It was my decision. I didn’t like what I saw. ”

 

In the first half of a SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING doubleheader, undefeated world-ranked super lightweight Amir Na (17-0, 14 Kos), of Davie, Fla., ta hanyar Albany, N.Y., won a lopsided 10-round decision over Walter “Da Hammer” Castle.

 

The talented, versatile, Ina da, 24, controlled a fight that featured numerous exchanges especially early on with a left jab and straight right hand.

 

My combinations were effective the whole night, we stuck to our gameplan and came out victorious,” said Imam. “I want any of the world champions next”.

 

Castle, who saw a nine-fight winning streak come to an end, ya ce “I thought I won the fight. I didn’t get credit for the punches I threw. The judge who scored it 100-90; da kyau, that gives me no chance to win here. The cut bothered me in the early rounds, but was not a factor after.

 

Tun da farko Asabar, on SHOWTIME EXTREME, undefeated Moises “El Chucky” Flowers (23-0, 16 Kos), na Guadalajara, Mexico, captured the WBA Super Bantamweight Interim World Championship with a thrilling 12-round split decision over defending champion Oscar Escandon (24-2 16 Kos), of Tolima, Colombia.

For me this is a life-changing victory and, a, I thought it was very, very close but I absolutely feel I won.

 

I want to fight the best next, the top guys at 122 pounds and right now the top guy is Leo Santa Cruz. That’s who I’d like to fight next. I really want to thank all my team, from top to bottom, for giving me this wonderful opportunity. We’re very happy that we joined the Al Haymon team. We’re very loyal and we just really appreciate everything they’ve done for us.

 

Escandon felt he’d done enough to win despite injuring the right index finger on his right hand in the seventh round.

I did all that I could, everything was in my reach, but I think I broke or fractured my finger,” ya ce. “In boxing things happen that are out of your control. Because I hurt my hand, I couldn’t throw punches the way I wanted to with my right hand. I tried to do all I could with it. But I didn’t want to injure it further. I’m OK, but I definitely would love a rematch.

 

In the SHOWTIME EXTREME co-feature, super welterweight Omar “El Businessman”Chavez (33-3-1, 22 Kos), of Culiacan, the younger brother of Chavez, Jr. and son of legendary Julio Cesar Sr., won an exciting, m-yi yaƙi, give-and-take eight-round unanimous decision over Richard Gutierrez (28-16-1, 17 Kos), of Arjona, Colombia.
