Podrijetlom iz Washingtona, Da kapo, Dusty Hernandez-Harrison has been touted as the city’s “best boxing prospect since Sugar Ray Leonard” by the Washingtonian Magazine. He began fighting at the age of six at the boxing exhibition at the Ritz Nightclub in Northwest D.C. and became a sanctioned amateur at the age of 8. U vrijeme njegove prve pro meču u dobi od 17, Hernandez-Harrison compiled an amateur record of 167-30, osvojivši nekoliko ring Svjetsko prvenstvo, Nacionalni Silver Rukavice prvenstva i tri ravne Nacionalni Zlatne Rukavice prvenstvo iz 2007-09. Lipnja 11, 2011, as the youngest licensed professional fighter at the time, Hernandez-Harrison made his pro debut defeating Alphonso Alexander via a unanimous decision at the Desoto Civic Center in Southaven, Misisipi. Six months later in his third pro fight, Hernandez-Harrison made his hometown debut on the undercard of the HBO World Championship Boxing broadcast of Amir Khan vs. Lamont Peterson and dazzled with a first round technical knockout of Terrell Davis. On his way to being crowned WBC Youth Welterweight World Champion in November 2013, Hernandez-Harrison stopped former National Golden Gloves Champion Kelly Wright in the fourth round in February of that year and dva tjedna kasnije defeated Aaron Anderson via a six-round unanimous decision. In April 2013 at Dover Downs Casino and Resort in Dover, Delaver, he won a unanimous decision against Puerto Rico’s Jonathan Garcia and on Svibanj 18 in front of a raucous hometown crowd of 3,000 at the University of the District of Colombia, he knocked out Eddie Soto with a right hand in the fifth round. Hernandez-Harrison proceeded to earn the “2013 Knockout of the Year” for the Soto fight and the “2013 Fighter of the Year” from Go Fight Live (GFL.TV). Studenog 2, 2013 u Madison Square Gardenu, Hernandez-Harrison became the WBC Youth World Champion, winning a ten-round, unanimous decision over Josh “Pit Bull” Torres. Dva mjeseca kasnije, in his first nationally televised fight on ESPN’s Petak Noćni Borbe, Hernandez-Harrison outlasted Tim Witherspoon Jr. via an eighth round unanimous decision victory, after which actor and director Mark Wahlberg tweeted that Hernandez-Harrison is “the truth.” Featured again on ESPN’s Petak Night Fights on March 7, 2014, Hernandez-Harrison faced southpaw Mike Balasi and came back to drop Balasi to the canvas twice en route to a six-round unanimous decision victory. siječnja 9, 2015, soon after signing a promotional agreement with Roc Nation Sports, Hernandez-Harrison headlined the promoter’s inaugural event at The Theater at Madison Square in a fight televised by Fox Sports 1. In a battle for the vacant WBC Continental Americas Welterweight Championship against New Yorker Tommy “The Razor” Rainone, Hernandez-Harrison scored a dominant ten-round unanimous decision victory. In his most recent fight on January 29, 2016, Hernandez-Harrison scored a decisive win over Angel Hernandez via a third round technical knockout at The Belvedere in Elk Grove, Ilinois. Hernandez-Harrison recently entered into agreements with FILA and GEICO to be a brand ambassador for both companies. He is the only professional boxer to represent each prestigious brand.

 

Mike Dallas Jr. was born into a boxing family and tabbed by experts during his teen years as a future professional star. U dobi od 29, he’s in the midst of a comeback that lands him in Washington, D.C. against local unbeaten favorite Dusty Hernandez-Harrison that may be the most important fight of his life. Kao amater, Dallas shared a ring with current world champions Terence Crawford (whom Dallas claims he beat three times) and Danny Garcia as well as three-time U.S. Olympian Rau’shee Warren. He won multiple national amateur titles and qualified for the 2004 a 2008 Olimpijske suđenja. Dallas turned professional on March 20, 2008 against Alejandro Valladares in San Jose, California and won by unanimous decision. He would go unbeaten in his next 17 borbe. When he faced Josesito Lopez for the vacant NABF super lightweight title on January 28, 2011 in his national television debut on ESPN at Pechanga Resort and Casino in Temecula, Kalifornija, he was shockingly stopped in the seventh round.Five months later, Dallas met fellow rising contender Mauricio Herrera. In an excellent fight, again at Pechanga Resort and Casino, Dallas lost by a razor thin majority decision. Despite the setback, Dallas’ performance showed boxing experts he was back to contender status. In his next two fights, Dallas dominated former Miguel Angel Gonzales on February 17, 2012 and knocked out Javier Castro on June 22, 2012 to capture the WBO Latino light welterweight title. Those wins brought Dallas to his biggest opportunity to date, an WBC super lightweight interim world title fight against Lucas Matthysse, siječnja 26, 2013 at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. Just after negotiations for the fight were finalized, Dallas learned that his father, Mike Dallas Sr., who introduced his son to boxing at age six, passed away suddenly at just 45 godina. Dallas Jr., međutim, did not pull out of the Matthysee fight. Na Fight Night, Dallas Jr. was all there physically, but mentally a fight of that magnitude was too much under the circumstances and Matthysee, probably the hardest puncher in boxing, imposed his will on Dallas, scoring a first round knockout. He then took the break he should have taken before the Matthysee fight, spending two years away from the ring. When Dallas felt the urge to fight again, he contacted his trainer Ben Bautista and the pair ventured to Tijuana, Meksiko, where Dallas picked up two quick wins against Alejandro Alonso on November 20, 2015 and most recently on December 19 against Odillon Rivera. He now returns to fight in the spotlight again on Svibanj 13 in a true crossroads fight against Hernandez-Harrison.

 

At the age of nineteen, Darmani Rock is already drawing comparisons to former heavyweight greats of the past. Rock has received high praise for his powerful jab and ambidexterity. Standing at 6’4”, he moves with an unparalleled lightness and speed for a fighter his size. Rock earned nation-wide accolades following a banner year in 2014 when he took home the USA Boxing Junior and Youth Open, Youth Continental and Youth World super heavyweight titles. During the 2014 Junior and Youth Open in Reno, Nevada, Rock shut out the 2013 National Youth Champion, John Luna, 3-0. This impressive performance was followed by another super heavyweight title at the Youth Continental Championships in March 2014 in Quito, Ecuador where he defeated Argentina’s Kervin Espinola 3-0. Rock then took home the gold medal at the prestigious World Youth Championships in Bulgaria in April 2014 od strane a 2-1 decision over Germany’s Peter Kadiru. Rock also took home the 2014 World Junior Amateur Championship and capped off 2014 by being named Philadelphia’s Amateur Boxer of the Year at the annual Briscoe Awards. His most noteworthy win, međutim, came in May 2015 when he beat Cam Awesome, a career amateur who has been called the next Chris Byrd, in Las Vegas for the National Golden Gloves title. Rock also captured the 2015 U.S. National Amateur super heavyweight championship. He ended his amateur career as the number one rated super heavyweight in the United States (and the number five rated super heavyweight in the world) odlazak 19-5 in national tournaments. In February 2016, Rock signed an exclusive promotional agreement with Roc Nation Sports.

"Što se tiče same borbe, to je vrlo jednostavan za mene ... bilo tko tko me poznaje, oni znaju kako radim i znaju kako sam kliknite. Ne dobiti je uhvaćen u ono što je sljedeće. Ne dobiti je uhvaćen u ono što ljudi govore. Ja sam svjestan što je rekao. Znam što je moj protivnik je rekao, a ja sam ga uzeti za riječ.

Vidio sam neke članke u kojima se tvrdi Propustio sam premijera. To je ludo za mene. Osjećam da sam dobar kao što sam ikada bio. Ja sam bio u boksačkom teretani bez mnogo pauze za prošlost 20 godina. Moj mozak mi je zahvalio za posljednje dvije godine. Moje tijelo mi je zahvalio. To bi moglo dati mi još dvije godine u mojoj karijeri.

 

"Moram samo biti mi. Tko sam ja dovoljno. Ne moram pojaviti na Kovalev u gužvi u subotunoć. Samo moramo provesti plan igre. Mislim da će poslati poruku da je trebao poslati, a ako se to ne dogodi, onda će on [Kovalev] dobiti poruku kada se borimo.

"Imam dvije ruke. On ima dvije ruke. Imam posao za napraviti na Ožujak 26.

 

"Znam Ward i Kovalev su vrlo visoko cijenjen i oni stvorili puno novca i puno interesa, ali oni ne znaju što je Sullivan Barrera je sposoban od događaj. Ja ću dokazati da u subotu.

 

"Nisam tip koji ima tražiti nokaut. Moje boks vještine govore sami za sebe. Ja borim Andre Ward i borbe ovdje u Oaklandu, pa ja ne mislim da će odluka biti donesena u moju korist.

Hooker, rated number seven by the WBO, is coming off of a career-best win on October 17, 2015 against his toughest opponent to date in Ghislain Maduma (17-2, 11 Kos) u Madison Square Gardenu. Hooker successfully defended his NABO title with the 10-round decision win over Maduma on the undercard of Gennady Golovkin vs. David Lemieux in a fight that was featured on the event’s “freeview” in the United States and streamed online around the world. Buelvas, a former WBA Fedebol champion, has won two of his last three bouts by knockout and fought Humberto Soto for the WBC Silver International Super Lightweight title in 2014, going the 12-round distance before losing a decision to the former World Champion.

 

Born and raised in Oak Cliff, Teksas, a rough suburb of Dallas, Hooker found a boxing home at Maple Avenue Boxing Gym by way of an outreach program for at-risk youths. His natural talent was soon noticed resulting in him competing as an amateur, during which time he participated in over 100 borbe, sastavljanje evidenciju 97 pobjeda i samo 7 gubici, s 67 victories coming by way of knockout.

After four rounds, the judges saw the fight 40-36, 37-39 a 38-38, making the fight a split draw.

After eight close, hard-fought rounds, the judges saw the fight a draw. Hooker followed the draw with a six-round unanimous decision win over Adrian Rodriguez Garza (8-2, 6 KO-a) na Travanj 26 at Fitzgerald’s Casino and Hotel in Tunica, Misisipi. Four consecutive knockout victories would follow before he took on fellow undefeated prospect Eduardo Galindo (10-0-1, 7 KO-a) lipnja 26, 2015 at the Kay Bailey Hutchinson Convention Center in Dallas for the vacant NABO Junior Welterweight Championship. “Mighty Mo” did not disappoint his legion of hometown fans who saw him capture the title with a sixth round technical knockout victory.

 

Hailing from Rancho Cucamonga, Kalifornija i borbe iz boks leglo Oxnard, neporažen Daniel "Twitch" Franco (12-0-3, 7 KO-a) meets Mexican veteran German “Panteonero” Meraz(52-37-1, 30 Kos) in an eight-round featherweight bout on Ožujak 26. Featured for the second time on a Ward undercard, the sharp-boxing Franco will look to improve on his undefeated record against an opponent with literally six times his pro boxing experience. Meraz is only 29 years old but has already logged an amazing 90 professional bouts and has won four of his last six fights by knockout. He has fought current World Champion Juan Carlos Payano, Three-Time U.S. Olympian Rau’shee Warren and highly-touted prospect Gervonta Davis, going the distance with all three.

 

Franco began boxing at the age of eight, gomilanje amatersko rekord 67-15, osvajanje Oxnard PAL prvenstvo u 2006 i California State Srebrna Rukavice prvenstvo u 2007 usput. Tijekom Francove profesionalni debi na dan 18, 2010, on je pobijedio Emanuel Machorro u klubu 401 u Ontariju, California preko treće okrugli tehnički nokaut. Unatoč tome što je upisao kao redovnog studenta na CHAFFEY College u Rancho Cucamonga, Franco impresioniran rano u karijeri, sastavljanje neporažen rekord s dva remija u prostorima diljem Kalifornije do kraja 2013. Jedan od onih koji privlači došli protiv Alejandro Ochoa na mirnoj Cannon u Montebello, Kalifornija rujna 20, 2013, but in a rematch three months later, Franco outmatched Ochoa zabio šest okrugli jednoglasnom odlukom pobjedu na Westin Bonaventure Hotel u Los Angelesu. Lipnja 20, 2015, during Ward’s return to the ring at Oracle Arena, Franco saw action in an eight-round junior lightweight bout against Jonathan Alcantara and won by unanimous decision. A hand injury suffered in that bout kept Franco out of action until Prosinac 21when he scored a decision victory over Hector Garcia in Tijuana, Meksiko.

 

A promising unbeaten prospect from Salinas, Kalifornija, Rudy “The Revelation” Puja. Jr. (7-0, 6 Kos)looks to extend his undefeated streak against Carlos “Kalimba” Lozano (7-5, 4 Kos) od Ensenada, Mexico in a six-round middleweight bout. Puga turned in a career-best performance in his last match-up on February 12 in knocking out Alejandro Osuna (4-2, 2 KO-a) in two rounds at the Double Tree Hotel in Ontario, Kalifornija. Sada, just a little over a month later, “The Revelation” will step into the ring against a tough opponent in Lozanao, a southpaw who has never been stopped and already has a ten-round decision victory under his belt.

 

Having compiled an exceptional amateur record of 99-8, Puga made his professional debut on September 2, 2011, scoring a fourth round technical knockout victory over Raul Talamontes at the Sports Complex in his hometown. Back in the ring less than two months later, Puga Jr. raised his record to 2-0 with a first round technical knockout of Jose Jesus Hurtado at the Sherwood Inn in Salinas. U lipnju 2012, he sent Thomas Turner to the mat four times in scoring a second round technical knockout win at the Joint at Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada. After a little more than a year away from the ring, he rededicated himself to the “sweet science” with a vengeance and on February 17, 2014, Puga Jr. made his comeback stopping Charon Spain in the third round with an overpowering body shot at the Salinas Storm House in his native Salinas. Promotional issues kept Puga Jr. out of the ring for the next year and injuries led to a slow 2015, but Puga Jr. scored a a fourth round technical knockout win over of Katrell Straus on Travanj 24 and a six-round unanimous decision over Juan Carlos Rojas on Studeni 21, both fights taking place at the Double Tree Hotel in Ontario, Kalifornija.

 

Brooklyn’s 20-year-old, neporažen Junior “The Young God” Younan (7-0, 6 KO-a) vraća se na prsten Ožujak 26 after a nine-month layoff to take on Cristian Solorzano (4-7, 3 Kos) Sonora, Mexico in a four-round super middleweight fight. Younan has battled multiple nagging injuries since scoring a second round technical knockout victory over Mike Sawyer on the Miguel Cotto vs. Daniel Geale undercard on June 6, 2015 na Barclays Center u Brooklynu, Njujork. Sada 100 posto zdravih, Younan looks to make Solozano his third straight knockout victim. Solorzano, a naturally bigger fighter, has campaigned in the light heavyweight division and is coming off of a knockout win.

 

Younan, trained by his father Sherif, a former professional boxer himself, began fighting competitively at age eight and only two years later was called a “boxing prodigy” by the New York Times. He compiled an amateur record of 90-5, racking up an impressive series of titles along the way including nine Junior Olympic championships, nine Junior Metro championships, eight New York State Silver Gloves championships and five Regional Silver Gloves championships. U 2011, he was crowned National Junior Golden Gloves champion and was U.S.A. Boxing’s number one rated junior boxer in his weight class. Less than a month after his 18th rođendan, Younan made his professional debut on November 9, 2013, at the Aviator Sports and Events Center in Brooklyn, Njujork, stopping Kenneth Schmitz in the first round. Younan would go on to knockout his next three opponents before going the distance for the first time against Azamat Umarzoda on July 2, 2014 na Foxwoods Resort Casino u Mashantucket, Connecticut. He followed that fight with a first round knockout of Marlon Farr on Kolovoz 13 the BB King Blues Club and Grill in New York on Kolovoz 13.

Chinese heavyweight Zhang “Big Bang” Zhilei (7-0, 4 Kos) joins the undercard on Ožujak 26 in a four-round bout against an opponent yet to be determined. The Silver Medalist from the 2008 Beijing Olympics continues to infuse excitement into the heavyweight division and is coming off of a first round technicalknockout win over David Koswara on February 20 at the Lanzhou Sports Arena in Lanzhou, Kina.

 

Born on May 2, 1983 in Henan, Zhang began his amateur career in 2003, participating in the World Championships. A breakthrough came in 2007 at the World Championships where Zhang defeated the trio of Nurpais Torobekov, Rustam Rygebayev and Daniel Beahan en route to the semifinals where he lost to Ukrainian Vyacheslav Glazkov. By capturing a bronze medal and finishing the competition in third place, he qualified for the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing. The Chinese powerhouse nearly reached the zenith of amateur success in the summer of 2008, entering the super heavyweight finals at the Summer Olympics in Beijing against Italy’s Roberto Cammarelle. It was not to be as Zhang suffered his first defeat of that Olympiad, losing to Cammarelle, but proudly adding to the host country’s medal total with a Silver. U 2009, Zhang captured a gold medal at the China National Games, an event of equal prestige to the Olympics in China. 2013 saw yet another gold medal winning performance in the China National Games, setting the stage for “Big Bang” to embark on a professional career while basing himself in the United States. Kolovoza 8, 2014, Zhang made his professional debut by scoring a first-round knockout win over Curtis Lee Tate in Fallon, Nevada in a fight that was televised live on ESPN2. Ožujka 14, 2015, Zhang beat Eric George via a four-round unanimous decision at the Armory in Jersey City, New Jersey. He followed that with another four-round unanimous decision win, this time over Glenn Thomas on the highly anticipated Cotto-Geale undercard at Barclays Center in Brooklyn on Lipanj 6. Next came a sixth round technical knockout win over Dennis Benson at The Playground in Atlantic City on Kolovoz 15. To end the year, Zhang was featured on the undercard of the Studeni 21 Cotto vs. Canelo mega-fight at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas, where scored a four-round unanimous decision victory over Juan Goode.

 

Lokalni Hayward, California omiljena Aron Coley (12-1-1, 6 KO-a) faces a very stern test in a six-round junior middleweight bout against Slijedili Ryskeldiev (11-3-2, 7 Kos) of West Hollywood, Kalifornija, a Kyrgyzstan native who is undefeated in his last seven fights.

 

Na Ožujak 26, Coley will look follow his most recent victory, a unanimous decision over Jeremy Ramos onSiječanj 23 at the Marriott on Broadway in Oakland, with another win in front of his hometown fans. Prior to his January win he scored two unanimous decision triumphs, including his June 20, 2015 performance against Yusmani Abreu (who Ryskeldiev defeated by technical knockout in September) on the undercard of Ward’s last fight. Considered a promising prospect in boxing circles, Coley’s lone loss came via decision to one of boxing’s hottest prospects in Ievgen Khytrov in a bout that was televised live on Showtime’s ShoBox on April 10, 2015 from The Aviator Sports Complex in Brooklyn, Njujork.

Johnson, who captured the WBA International and WBC Silver middleweight titles in his last bout, is currently ranked WBC #2, WBA #5, IBF #8 and WBO #13. He gives his thought on sparring with Geale.

 

“Daniel Geale is a special fighter who possesses a lot of boxing skills,” said Tuerano Johnson. “He’s looking real sharp in the gym and his power is there. I can feel the snap on his punches and I think Miguel Cotto is in for a big surprise. Everyone is counting Geale out but not me. Gary Shaw brought me in to test Geale’s skills and after a few days of sparring, I believe Daniel will be crowned champion.”

 

“I brought Tureano to the gym to spar with Geale because he’s a good look to emulate Cotto and he’s one of the top fighters in the middleweight division,” Gary Shaw said. “The feedback I got from Johnson about sparring Geale is very positive. I’m confident that Daniel will use everything in his playbook to come out victorious.”

 

Tureano Johnson is currently riding a 4-fight winning streak, three of which came by stoppage. Highly ranked across the board of all sanctioning organizations, Johnson is on the cusp of landing a big fight.
