Though New York Rules May Have Changed Giorgi Gelashvili’s Hunt for a World Championship Continues

Former Amateur Standout Faces Detroit’s Larry Ventus Samdi sa a at ‘Detroit Brawl

You can’t blame undefeated super lightweight prospect Giorgi Gelashvili for feeling like the rug was pulled out from under him a little.

In search of notoriety and success in the American boxing universe, the 22-year-old from Kutaisi, Georgia, moved his home base to Brooklyn, New York, last year only to have heavy-handed new laws in the state derail his plans temporarily.
The bill, that went into effect in August, dramatically increased mandatory insurance premiums promoters must pay to put on a show in the state — soti nan $10,000 to $50,000 for general coverage per fighter and $1 million minimum, per-fighter, in the event of brain injury. The result is that smaller shows in New York State are basically impossible to justify financially.
It is disappointing that I can’t fight in New York,” said Gelashvili. “My first three fights were on Salita’s Brooklyn Brawl series. New York has lots of people from my country and I was building a fan base in the community.
But like any true champion must, Gelashvili has since picked himself up and moved his fighting base to Detroit, Michigan, where a new group of fans have welcomed him warmly.
Gelashvili (5-0, 3 Ko) will face Detroiter Larry Ventus (6-11-1, 3 Ko) in a six-round showdown on Salita Promotions latestDetroit Brawlevent at the Masonic Temple in Downtown Detroit, sou Samdi, Novanm 12.
Tikè pou “Detroit Brawlwill be priced at VIP $123, Box Seats $100, Rinsid $93, $63, $38, ak $28 and available at all Ticketmaster outlets and Ticketmaster.com.
I had my last two fights in Detroit and it’s becoming my new boxing home,” he continued. “I know that the city is rebuilding because very time I visit, it’s nicer. New buildings are going up. Detroit has a great positive energy and it’s home to many great fighters and the world-famous Kronk Gym. I get lots of respect from the fans here. They know boxing and they most definitely love a good fight. They know I come to fight and put my heart and soul on the line. Like Detroit, I am climbing up the ranks for worldwide respect and positive recognition.
Extremely strong and powerful for a fighter his size, Gelashvili had over 120 amateur fights winning 110 while becoming a five-time Georgian National champion. Still he maintains he’s training hard to face Ventus, who is known to pull a surprise or two out of his veteran bag of tricks.
I know Larry Ventus is a good fighter. He has a bad record, but he has fought many top fighters and in his last fight I heard fought a very close fight with Dorin Spivey. I know he has been training for a long time for this and he is from Detroit, so he’s got the hometown advantage. I trained hard and I am ready.
Gleashvili says many of his New York-based fans are making the trek to watch him sa a Samdi in Motown and that he is still very happy so far with search for fame and fortune overseas.
I have been with Salita Promotions for a little over a year they keep me very busy and help me with transition to the US and professional boxing. I believe that they will take me to the top of my division. I am working hard and taking on all comers. Novanm 12 nan Detroit… Mwen pa ka tann!”
In the night’s main event, Detroit’s undefeated James Gordon Smith (10-0, 6 Ko) and Tashkent, Uzbekistan formidable Olim Nazarov (14-2, 8 Ko), will go to war for six rounds of bantamweight action.
