PARK CITY, Kan. (Februarie 11, 2018) – U.S. 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 Night Boxing” Goud & Heerlikheid” kaart, by Hartman Arena in Park City, Kansas.
Aangebied deur “KO Night Boxing LLC,” the card was taped live to be shown at a later date on CBS Sports Network. “KO Night Boxing” Goud & Heerlikheid” kaart, presented by KO Night Boxing LLC,
Die 22-jarige Hernandez (4-0, 3 Uitklophoue) stopped last-minute replacement, game Victor “Die Bull” Torres, in die vyfde ronde.
Hernandez’ oorspronklike teenstander, Hungarian champion Joseph Ajtai (19-9, 12 Uitklophoue), never made it to Wichita due to a series of unfortunate circumstances. Ajtai lost one day in Frankfurt, Duitsland, after leaving his passport on the plane he took from Budapest. Once he landed in Chicago op Woensdag, 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 gesê. “Weer, 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’ veiligheid.
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 (titel gordel) 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 (titel gordel).”

Olympian Nico Hernandez remains undefeated Tramaine Williams, Armando Alvarez & Zhilei Zhang victorious

VIR ONMIDDELLIKE VRYSTELLING
KO NIGHT BOXINGRESULTS FROM KANSAS
PALM CITY, Kansas (September 24, 2017) – The name of last night’s “KO Night Boxing: Step Upevent certainly was appropriate as 2016 Olympic bronze medalist Nico Hernandez had to overcome a major obstacle to remain undefeated at Hartman Arena in Palm City, Kansas.
“KO Night Boxing: 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.
St. Louis southpaw Kendrick “Uprising” Latchman outweighed regular flyweight Hernandez by more than 10 pounds when the two fighters entered the ring because Hernandezscheduled 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 pond, Baratov was 112, which was the contracted weight. The Kansas Athletic Commission, egter, 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 KO) is a pro boxer-MMA hybrid fighter who is 6-3 (5 Uitklophoue) in MMA, including a 55-second stoppage of 14-7-1 Cody Land die afgelope Julie.
Latchman buzzed Hernandez in the first round, much to the chagrin of the Hernandezloud hometown crowd. The U.S. Olympian displayed a good chin and went on to win a six-round unanimous decision to improve his pro record to 3-0 (2 Uitklophoue).
They (his corner and fans) were nervous,” the 21-year-old Hernandez said after the fight, “maar ek was nie. My coach (father Lewis Hernandez) told me to feint and go in, but I lunged a little too much. Hey, I’m staying in my division (flyweight) 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,” promotor John Andersen kommentaar. “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 Desember 2 to headline another show at Hartman Arena.
USBA No. 2- rated featherweight Tramaine “The Might Midget” Williams (13-0, 5 Uitklophoue), fighting out of New Haven (CT), cruised to his 13ste victory without a defeat, taking a one-sided 10-round unanimous decision over Derrick Murray (13-3, 5 Uitklophoue), in die mede-featured gebeurtenis.
Key West, FL welterweight Armando “Die Gentleman: Alvarez (17-0, 11 Uitklophoue) gebly onoorwonne, winning a 10-round unanimous decision against Hungarian champion GaborSquirrelGorbics (23-8, 14 Uitklophoue) in a competitive Special Welterweight Attraction. Alvarez is the WBC Latino welterweight title holder.
Undefeated Chinese heavyweight prospect ZhileiBig BangZhang (18-0, 14 Uitklophoue), the reigning WBO Oriental champion, slegs nodig 2:28 to stop veteran Byron “Die Beer” Polley(30-22-1, 13 Uitklophoue). 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 Uitklophoue) rebounded from being decked, as well as a pre-fight cut, to knockout 361-pound Richard “silwerrug” Carmack (15-12-1, 12 Uitklophoue) in die tweede ronde. Alexander suffered a cut on his shin that resulted from a step breaking as he entered the ring.
Milwaukee junior middleweight Akeem Swart (3-1, 1 KO) won three of four rounds on all three judgesscorecards for a four-round unanimous decision over Marcus Neal (2-2, 2 Uitklophoue).
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.

I’m very fortunate that my promoter, John Andersen(KO Night Boxing), 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. Natuurlik, 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.
