World ranked Yenifel Vicente comes out in defense of Latinos for derogatory comments by father / trainer of champion Isaac Dogboe

Santo Domingo, República Dominicana – Renowned Dominican boxer Yenifel ‘El Rayo’ Vicente (31-3-2, 23 Nocauts) has been aware of the expressions made by Paul Dogboe, father and trainer of the Interim World Boxing Organization champion (OMB) 122 lliura, Isaac Dogboe (18-0, 12 Nocauts), who is scheduled to face WBO world champion, Mexican American, Jessie Magdaleno (25-0, 18 Nocauts), a Abril 28 a Filadèlfia .

Paul Dogboe had expressed that his son not only will defeated Magdaleno, but deported the Mexican-American born in Las Vegas after the victory by throwing it on the wall that divides both countries and in the celebration, they will present the world title to the President of the United States, Donald Trump.

If Dogboe defeats Magdaleno, I will ask my promoter Lou DiBella to fight him,” said Yenifel Vicente.

If we have to fight in Ghana, we will be ready to travel and put the Latinos and people who respect others regardless of their race with a big victory for them. Those comments create hatred and divisions. We live in a world where we all breathe the same air and we are the same. I will not allow them to insult our Mexican brothers and others who work hard in search of a better quality of life, “said Yenifel Vicente.

Vicente has won six consecutive bouts, including the PBC’s Knockout of the Year, a three-round knockout over the undefeated favorite, Juan ‘Baby TitoDominguez.

Vicente’s manager, Raúl Patrana, President of the ‘Spartan Boxing Club’, is willing to help with the fight.

If Dogboe wins, we are willing to make the necessary arrangements so that Dogboe’s first defense can be against Vicente who is ranked 12th in the WBO and of course in the best coliseum available in Ghana. We wish the best of luck to Magdaleno. Al final, we hope both fighters make a good fight for the fans and leave healthy after that”.

Heralded Prospect Ruben Villa Remains Undefeated with Unanimous Decision this Past Friday Night in Ontario, Califòrnia

FILADÈLFIA, PENN./ORANGE, Califòrnia. (Febrer. 19, 2017)- Heralded prospect Ruben Villa (10-0, 4 KOs) of Salinas, Califòrnia. made it ten straight wins to start his career by outpointing veteran Juan Sandoval (15-18, 5 KOs) de Mèxic. Scores: 59-55, 60-54 dues vegades.
The bout was the co-feature this past Divendres night at the Doubletree Hotel in Ontario, Califòrnia.

Villa, 20, capitalized on his southpaw stance by landing a strong jab and countering with a right hook that routinely found its mark. Sandoval often looked confused and never managed to find any angles against the busier Villa.
I just tried to keep the pressure on him from start to finish,” said Villa, who is co-promoted by Banner Promotions and Thompson Boxing. “I think he fought a cautious fight, but I was still able to land a lot of punches in every round.
Villa was most impressive in the fourth and fifth rounds when he delivered numerous sets of combinations that stunned the taller Sandoval. While Villa kept his unbeaten streak alive el divendres nit, another, less recognizable streak ended. In his previous unanimous decision wins, Villa had won every round on every scorecard. El Divendres nit, one judge failed to give Villa all six rounds (59-55).
That streak was bound to end sooner or later,” Villa said. “I’ll have to start another one.
Once again Ruben had a terrific outing el divendres nit,” va dir Banner Promotions president, Artie Pelullo.
Ruben continues his progression and development, and we are extremely pleased at where he is at. 2018 is going to be a big year for Ruben, as we will see him fight for some regional titles in the next 12-18 mesos.”
Ruben looked impressive yet again against a veteran opponent,” va dir Ken Thompson, president de Thompson Boxing. “Ruben is developing and maturing quicker than we anticipated. He’ll be back in the ring very soon.
