“KO NIGHT BOXING” RESULTS FROM KANSAS
PALM CITY, Kansas (Setembro 24, 2017) – The name of last night’s “KO Night Boxing: Step Up” event certainly was appropriate as 2016 Olympic bronze medalist Nico Hernández 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 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 libras, Baratov was 112, which was the contracted weight. The Kansas Athletic Commission, con todo, 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) no MMA, including a 55-second stoppage of 14-7-1 Cody Land en xullo pasado.
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, “pero eu non estaba. My coach (father Lewis Hernandez) told me to feint and go in, but I lunged a little too much. Ei, 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 comentou. “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 Decembro 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 “The Gentleman: Alvarez (17-0, 11 Kos) permaneceu invicto, 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) na segunda rolda. Alexander suffered a cut on his shin that resulted from a step breaking as he entered the ring.
Milwaukee junior middleweight Akeem negro (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.

Travis Kauffman regresa con destrución primeira rolda sobre Carmack

Leave a comment

Lectura, PA (Agosto 18, 2015)–Na noite pasada venres no Prudential Center inNewark, New Jersey, Peso pesado Travis Kauffman (29-1, 21 KO) scored a first round stoppage over Richard Carmack in Kauffman’s first fight in 19 meses.

Kauffman acertou un gancho de dereita perfecta desde a posición zurdo que enviou Carmack abaixo en 2:07.

O ataque ocorreu nunha tarxeta que foi encabezado por un loita entre ex-campións mundiais Antonio Tarver e Steve Cunningham, que rematou nun empate.

“Eu non creo que Carmack ía bater tan duro como el fixo. 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, Eu sabía que era forte e quería tiralo rápido. The gameplan that we worked on was to go to the body and once I dropped him, Eu sabía que el se fixo,” dixo Kauffman.

Kauffman debe volver en setembro 18 no Claridge en Atlantic City.

“Eu non perdeu tempo e xa estou de volta ao ximnasio con Naazim Richardson e meu pai e eu estou preparado para seguir adiante con loitas maiores. I expect this fight to be another tune up and then I will be ready for a much bigger fight.”

A loita terá lugar nunha tarxeta que é encabezado polo ex-campións mundiais Antonio Tarver e Steve Cunningham.

A tarxeta será televisado pola Spike TV, aínda que a loita de Kauffman non está programa para facer o aire como esta vez.

Ao afrontar Carmack, Kauffman estará enfrentando un home que ten unha marca de 13-6 e pesa máis de 300 libras.

“Polo que teño visto de Carmack, pode loitar. Non se deixe enganar pola súa aparencia. Pode loitar. Eu estou traballando duro real e este é o meu primeiro campo de adestramento completo con Naazim Richardson e meu pai Marshall Kauffman. Naazim é o mellor cando se trata de romper adversarios así que sei que vai ser totalmente preparado para Carmack.”

Antes da lesión, Kauffman foi clasificado no top-cinco pola WBA e cre que non vai levar moito para que sobe de volta ata que estado elevado.

“Estou esperando por un Tune-up. Posiblemente en setembro 18 en Atlantic City. Estou de volta con Al Haymon así que o que alinhou para min. Sei que me vai pegar as loitas que me vai colocar en posición para as loitas que eu teño para me volver a entrar no top cinco-. Loitas con Chris Arreola e Artur Szpilka podería ser aqueles ind de loitas.”

Kauffman está animado por estar de volta con Haymon e de competir en tarxetas PBC.
