“KO NIGHT BOXING” RESULTS FROM KANSAS
PALM CITY, Kansas (September 24, 2017) – The name of last night’s “KO Night Boksning: Step Up” event 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 Boksning: 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 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 pounds, Baratov was 112, which was the contracted weight. The Kansas Athletic Commission, dog, 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 KOS) i MMA, including a 55-second stoppage of 14-7-1 Cody Land dette tidligere juli.
Latchman buzzed Hernandez in the first round, much to the chagrin of the Hernandez’ loud 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 KOS).
“They (his corner and fans) were nervous,” the 21-year-old Hernandez said after the fight, “men jeg var ikke. 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 (flyvevægt) 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 kommenterede. “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 December 2 to headline another show at Hartman Arena.
USBA No. 2- rated featherweight Tramaine “The Might Midget” Williams (13-0, 5 KOS), fighting out of New Haven (CT), cruised to his 13th victory without a defeat, taking a one-sided 10-round unanimous decision over Derrick Murray (13-3, 5 KOS), in the co-featured event.
Key West, FL welterweight Armando “Den Gentleman: Alvarez (17-0, 11 KOS) forblev ubesejret, winning a 10-round unanimous decision against Hungarian champion Gabor “Squirrel” Gorbics (23-8, 14 KOS) 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 KOS), the reigning WBO Oriental champion, needed only 2:28 to stop veteran Byron “The Bear” Polley(30-22-1, 13 KOS). 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 KOS) rebounded from being decked, as well as a pre-fight cut, to knockout 361-pound Richard “Silverback” Carmack (15-12-1, 12 KOS) i anden runde. Alexander suffered a cut on his shin that resulted from a step breaking as he entered the ring.
Milwaukee junior middleweight Akeem Sort (3-1, 1 KO) won three of four rounds on all three judges’ scorecards for a four-round unanimous decision over Marcus Neal (2-2, 2 KOS).
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.

Reading, PA (August 18, 2015)–Sidste fredag ​​nat på Prudential Center inNewark, New Jersey, Sværvægter udfordrer Travis Kauffman (29-1, 21 KO s) scored a first round stoppage over Richard Carmack in Kauffman’s first fight in 19 måneder.

Kauffman landede en perfekt højre krog fra southpaw holdning, der sendte Carmack ned på 2:07.

Kampen foregik på et kort, der blev hovednavn ved en kamp mellem tidligere verdensmestre Antonio Tarver og Steve Cunningham, der endte i en uafgjort.

“Jeg troede ikke, Carmack vil ramme så hårdt, som han gjorde. I went out there with the mindset of going some rounds to work off ring rust. As soon as he hit me with a right hand, Jeg vidste, at han var stærk og ønskede at få ham ud hurtigt. The gameplan that we worked on was to go to the body and once I dropped him, Jeg vidste, at han blev gjort,” sagde Kauffman.

Kauffman er behørigt tilbage på September 18 på Claridge i Atlantic City.

“Jeg spildte ingen tid og er allerede tilbage i gymnastiksalen med Naazim Richardson og min far og jeg er klar til at gå videre med større slagsmål. I expect this fight to be another tune up and then I will be ready for a much bigger fight.”

Reading, PA (August 11, 2015)–Denne fredag ​​aften på Prudential Center i Newark, New Jersey, Sværvægter udfordrer Travis Kauffman (28-1, 20 KO s) vil være tilbage i aktion for første gang i 19 måneder, når han tager på Richard Carmack i en kamp planlagt til 8-runder.

Kampen vil finde sted på et kort, der er hovednavn ved tidligere verdensmestre Antonio Tarver og Steve Cunningham.

Kortet vil blive tv-transmitteret af Spike TV, selvom Kauffman s kamp ikke er planlagt til at gøre luft som denne gang.

Kauffman af Reading, PA har været ude af handling på grund af knæ kirurgi til at reparere en splittet forreste korsbånd (ACL).

Kauffman har rehabbing meget svært for den bedre del af 2015 da han startede sin rejse i Houston, Texas og fortsatte sin boksetræning i Reading og Philadelphia.

“Jeg føler godt og ærligt er jeg lidt ængstelig,” sagde Kauffman. “Jeg er mere begejstret for denne kamp på fredag ​​så nogen af ​​mine tidligere anfald. Jeg har trænet virkelig hårdt. Mit knæ føles godt. Jeg har den sædvanlige ømhed, der kommer med uddannelse, men noget større.”

I vender Carmack, Kauffman vil stå over for en mand, der har en registrering af 13-6 og vejer overstiger 300 pounds.

“Fra hvad jeg har set af Carmack, han kan kæmpe. Må ikke blive narret af hans udseende. Han kan kæmpe. Jeg har arbejdet virkelig hårdt og dette er min første fulde træningslejr med Naazim Richardson og min far Marshall Kauffman. Naazim er den bedste, når det kommer til at nedbryde modstanderne, så jeg ved, at jeg vil være fuldt forberedt til Carmack.”

Før skaden, Kauffman blev rangeret i top fem-by WBA, og han mener, at det plejer være længe, ​​før han stiger igen op til det ophøjede status.

“Jeg håber på endnu en tune up. Muligvis på September 18 i Atlantic City. Jeg er tilbage med Al Haymon så uanset hvad han har linet op for mig. Jeg ved, at han vil få mig de kampe, der vil sætte mig i stilling til de kampe, som jeg har brug for at få mig tilbage i top fem-. Kampe med Chris Arreola og Artur Szpilka kunne være dem ind af slagsmål.”

Kauffman er glade for at være tilbage med Haymon og konkurrere på PBC kort.

“Jeg ved, at han vil få mig, hvor jeg skal være. Det er derfor, jeg re-signeret med ham. Han tror på mig. Jeg er spændt og glæder mig til, hvad min fremtid bringer.”
