The 27-year-old Rivera (6-0, 5 Ko) fought once again in front of his large, traveling fanbase from Hartford, CT, capturing the vacant Universal Boxing Federation (UBF) light heavyweight title in dramatic fashion. The charismatic Hartford boxer ended his third consecutive match with what has become his trademark right-uppercut.

Rivera used his strength, energy and determined will to defeat South Boston’s Cobbs (10-3, 4 Ko), whose previous fight had been more than a year ago, when he was stopped in the second round by now world champion David Benavidez.

In only his sixth pro fight, the key question going into the bout was whether Rivera was ready to effectively step up in class to face a more experienced Cobbs. Right from the opening bell, the answer was a resounding, repons lan se wi, as Rivera pounded Cobbs with powerful shots to the body and head.

Cobbs was dropped three times in the third round, one was ruled a push, and the end came when referee Jackie Morrell halted the action at the 2:51 as a reeling Cobbs was blasted backwards from the Rivera’s previously mentioned uppercut.

The beginning of the end for Cobbs (L) as Rivera sets up his vaunted uppercut

“I stepped things up in the third,” Rivera eksplike. “He stopped throwing as many punches in the third and was ducking in. I said I wasn’t going to look for the knockout but, if it came, I’d take it. I got him with my uppercut. I respect Cobbs and thank him for giving me this opportunity.”

Undefeated N.E. prospect Omar Bordoy, Jr. Prepared to make statement at “New England nan lavni 5”

“New England nan lavni 5”
Feb. 10 nan Worcester, MA

WORCESTER, Mass. (Janvye 24, 2018) – One of New England’s leading pro prospects, jinyò wèltèr Oma Bordoy, Jr, has prepared to make a statement February 10th nan “New England nan lavni 5”, presented Rivera Promotions Entertainment (RPE), nan Paladyòm la nan Worcester.
Fighting out of Danbury, Connecticut, Bordoy (3-0, 1 KO) faces Puerto Rican-born opponent, Alexander “El Bravo” PICOT (2-4-1), in a four-round bout. “My opponent is tough, and he always comes to fight,” Bordoy said. “He keeps coming forward and that’s going to make for an exciting fight.”
The 22-year-old Bordoy is the typical example of a volatile teenager who found his way in boxing. He was a high school football player who started boxing at the age of 17. Bordoy had an abbreviated amateur career, highlighted by his winning performance at the New England Golden Gloves as a novice boxer.
“I was a bad hot head as a kid,” Bordoy admitted. “Yon jou, my cousin Edgardo, invited me to his gym after football practice and he beat me up. I was knocked down a few notches. I got into boxing and enjoyed watching Miguel Cotto ak Mike Tyson. I even have some of Cotto’s tattoos. Koulye a,, I’m more of a boxer, like a PERNELL Whitaker oswa Floyd Mayweather, Jr. I’m a come- forward boxer who can still brawl. I’m working on my defense and feel that making adjustments in the ring is what I do best.”
Bordoy, Jr. credits Team Bordoy — manadjè A.J. Galante, tèt antrenè Bennie Little, cut-man Luis Marichal, strength-and-conditioning coach Chris Mulfalmi ak Dave McDonough – for his success.
“I’m pleased to be with the right people to bring me to the top and I’m willing to do what’s needed to get there,” Bordoy added.
Bordoy, who works fulltime as a repair technician, made his pro debut last May and he fought a total of three times in 2017, his most recent last October in Worcester on an RPE-promoted show, in which he stopped 34-fight veteran Bryan Abraram nan wonn nan katriyèm.
“We enjoy working with Team Bordoy,” pwomotè Jose Antonio Rivera remarked. “I am proud of Omar and his accomplishments so far. He is a young, throwback fighter with a lot of potential. I see big things in his future and I am glad to see he is being guided in the right direction by his team.”
In the eight-round main event, undefeated Hartford (CT) pwa loud limyè Richard “Popeye Sailor Man la” Rivera (5-0, 4 Ko) pran sou Kevin “New England Bully nan” COBBS (10-2, 4 Ko), fighting out of South Boston (MA), pou vid Inivèsèl boksè Federasyon an (UBF) New England tit nan evènman an uit-wonn prensipal.
