Wilmington, DE (Février 8, 2017)–Bare Knuckle Boxing Legend Bobby Gunn is ready for his opportunity of a lifetime, when he takes on all-time great Roy Jones, Jr dans un combat prévu pour 12 rounds for the WBF Cruiserweight title that will take place on Vendredinuit, 17 février à The Chase Center en Wilmington, Delaware. The bout can be seen EN DIRECT SUR PAY-PER-VIEW.
Gunn of Hackensack, New Jersey has been preparing for this fight, and is ready for the biggest fight of his career. “
I am fighting an all-time great, and styles make fights. It will be a hell of a fight,” said Gunn.
Gunn wanted to raise the stakes for the fight, but he doesn’t think that Jones has the confidence that he will come out victorious.
“I laid it out to him for a winner-take-all bout. I am a puncher, so I know I will win this fight.”
This will be Gunn’s 1st bout en 38 mois, but the Bare-Knuckle Legend has been active fighting on the Bare-Knuckle circuit, and has a perfect record of 72-0 avec 72 KO dans ces combats.
“People can look, and think that I haven’t been active, but a fight is a fight and I have been fighting the Bare-Knuckle fights. Fighting is Fighting. The only difference in those fights is that the gloves protect the hands. Despite what it says on my boxing record, I have always been active. But the time out of the ring plus being against Roy Jones, Jr, the fans will see a different Bobby Gunn.”
Gunn, usually a mild-mannered fighter, has also been motivated by some “Trash-Talk”from Jones.
“He said that I don’t deserve to be in the same ring as him. I was already motivated for this, and he will find out otherwise on 17 février. Après 17 février, he will remember me for the rest of his life. I am not coming to dance. I am coming to fight, and early on, Roy will know that he has a fight on his hands.”

The Palicte vs. Cantu main event, as expected, was a classic match-up of contrasting styles between a dangerous puncher (Palicte) and consummate boxer (Cantu). There was surprising non-stop action from the opening bell.

I told all my teammates back in Chicago that I was dedicating this fight to Ed Brown.”
Los Angeles junior middleweight Flavio Rodriguez (6-0, 5 KOs) kept his undefeated record intact against previously unbeaten Mexican fighter Dilan “El Tremendo” Loza(5-1, 3 KOs) in the television opener.

Arbitre Jay Nady halted the bout after the third round.

Through my promoter, JJR, it was mentioned that there’s a big possibility for a world title challenge in 2017 if I win this fight. I’ve fought some quality fighters and I think I can do what I want in the ring, though I won’t say it’s going to be easy to control the fight.”
Styles made fights and a classic match-up between a consummate boxer (Cantu) and powerful puncher (Palicte) guarantees an intriguing fight that should be highly entertaining and incredibly competitive. Both fighters also respect each other.
“Palicte brings an impressive record and a lot of experience,” Cantu noted. “The road to a world title is a tough one, which means no easy opponents. I am really excited about this challenge. This is a classic fight because of our styles and I am sure we won’t let the viewing public down. I am ready to become the next great American champion in this weight class.”
“Cantu is a smart boxer,” Palicte added. “I’d compare him to Ismael Garnica, who I fought in our Showdown at Sands in Macau. (Palicte won by way of a seventh-round TKO.) Il (Cantu) is kind of a runner, trop, always moving around the ring, but we can never tell one’s ability until we’ve fought.
“Ça va être un combat passionnant. I’m really looking forward to getting a hold of those belts. Cantu is also a good boxer but with my experience and power, I think I have much more advantages than him. I know he’s also doing his best training, si, it’s going to be a really good fight come December 17e.”

Ce sera ma 4ème réunion officielle de boxeurs amateurs, les trois premiers ayant eu lieu à Las Vegas (Décembre 2014), New York City (Juin 2015) et Foxwoods Casino dans le Connecticut (Juillet 2015).
Les boxeurs qui ont assisté à des réunions précédentes incluent notamment le quadruple champion du monde Roy Jones Jr., Mike, triple champion du monde “Le voleur de corps” McCallum et l'Iran “La lame” Barkley, Le champion poids lourd WBO Lamon Brewster, ancien champion WBC des poids lourds légers Montell “La glace” Griffon, 1988 U.S.. L'entraîneur olympique Kenny Adams.
J'ai eu cette idée de réunir mes anciens pairs amateurs depuis de nombreuses années et en décembre de 2014 au Rival Boxing Store à Las Vegas, j'ai enfin eu ma première réunion de boxeurs amateurs et ce fut un énorme succès. Depuis j'en ai eu deux autres (chez Jimmy-Glenn- Angle sur W. 44e St. à New York et au Foxwoods Casino dans le Connecticut)des rassemblements réussis qui ont vu tout le monde des amateurs locaux, champions régionaux des gants d'or, Champions nationaux de l'AUA, champions du monde, Olympiens et tous les autres niveaux possibles de boxeur amateur.
J'avais initialement prévu d'avoir des boxeurs de ma classe d'essais olympiques (1988)se réunir pour une réunion mais l'a changé à n'importe quelle époque ou niveau.

Olympienne Jason Estrada.
En gros, c'est une chance pour nous de nous réunir, se souvenir, raconter des histoires, voir de vieux amis, rencontrer des gens que nous n'avons jamais rencontrés auparavant. Peut-être que le meilleur exemple de ce que mes réunions impliquent est venu au 2015 événement à Foxwoods lorsque Luis Ortiz et Lawrence Clay-Bey de Hartford se sont rencontrés pour la toute première fois depuis qu'ils se sont affrontés en tant que jeunes enfants chez Marc Anthony à Hartford il y a bien longtemps 1977!
QUAND: Juillet 23, 2016, 12 midi à 4 h
OÙ: Restaurant Margaritaville à l'intérieur du casino Mohegan Sun @ Uncasville, Connecticut.

LA GLACE

Devis: “

L'attente dans le vestiaire avant un match de boxe professionnelle -cette dernière heure- pourrait suffire à dépouiller un homme qui n'a jamais boxé auparavant de toute fierté, le désir et le cœur qu'il pensait avoir” –Iceman John Scully, Avril 2002

“La boxe est une fraternité soudée. Tout le monde connaît tout le monde. Mais une ligne dans la résine sera à jamais tracée entre ceux qui entrent dans l'anneau carré et ceux qui ne le font PAS.. De nombreux, beaucoup de gens gagnent de l'argent sur un combat, mais quand la cloche sonne, seules deux personnes y répondent.” – Randy Smith, Février 2003, Demandeur de journal (Manchester, Connecticut) Un journal

LAS VEGAS (Mai 21, 2016) – Determined Phoenix middleweight Andrew “Ouragan” Hernandez shocked heavy favorite Arif “The Pedator” Magomedov in tonight’s main event on the “Knockout Night at the D” carte, which aired live on CBS Sports Network from under the neon lights at the Downtown Las Vegas Events Center (DLVEC) outdoor venue.
Le “Knockout Night at the D” série, présenté par D Las Vegasand DLVEC, est promu par Roy Jones Jr. (JJR) Promotions de boxe. Tonight’s event was promoted in association with Main Events and Shamo Boxing Promotions.
Before a sold-out crowd, Hernandez (12-4-1, 4 KOs) pounded world-rated middleweight Magomedov (17-1, 10 KOs), remportant une décision unanime en 10 tours (100-89 deux fois, 98-91) for the vacant USNBC middleweight title. Hernandez hurt Magomedov in the third and seventh rounds, finally dropping the tough Russian (WBA #2, WB) #3, WBA #5 et IBF #14) dans le 10e.
“This fight changes everything for me,” Hernandez proclaimed. “He’s very good and deserves all of the accolades he’s received but I now have my head on straight and I’m focused. My jab was very important tonight. He’s very strong but I wanted to fight him inside because I knew he couldn’t take it from me. Je suis très bien préparés. I think I may have broken my ankle in the fourth round but I kept going. Je voulais en finir avec lui, get the knockout, but he’s a very tough fighter. He has heart and showed why he has all of those accolades.”
Four weeks ago, Hernandez was preparing to fight as a cruiserweight. Il a perdu 40 pounds to make weight for this middleweight fight in what turned out to be one of the biggest upsets of the year.

Southpaw super welterweights Jean “Le Phenom” Vera (14-0, 9 KOs), de Fort Worth, and Phoenix’ Joey “Boxeur” Ruelas (10-2-1, 4 KOs) went toe-to-toe from the opening bell and they never let up in the co-feature. Vera exploded in the round of this firestorm, battering the game Ruelas around, jusqu'à ce que l'arbitre Jay Nady halted the action in the sixth round. Vera remained undefeated and retained his NABA-USA title.
“I knew eventually he’d put his hands down and I’d catch him,” Vera explained. “I thank him for the opportunity to fight. He’s helluva fighter, I give him that, but I know I’m a warrior. I took some shots but gave ’em, trop. I broke him down and just kept throwing those lefts.”
(L-R) – John Vera & Joey Ruelas
In the TV opener, prodige de la boxe Devin “Le rêve” Haney (6-0, 4 KOs) made history as the 17-year-old – a junior in high school – became the youngest American professional boxer to fight on national television. Le Floyd Mayweather, Sr.-trained Haney, fighting out of Las Vegas in front of his rapidly growing fan-base, showcased his vast skills against previously undefeated Mexican invader Jairo “Le lion” Vargas (Fernandez), unloading 14 unanswered punches for a 4e round technical knockout victory. Nady stopped the fight without counting when a badly hurt Vargas (4-1, 3 KOs) hit the deck hard.
“I happy that I put on a good performance for my fans,” Haney commented after the fight. “My team put together the strategy to use my jab and breakdown his body. I picked up my combinations did what I was told to do.”
(L-R) — Devin Haney & Jairo Vargas
In a battle of Texas junior welterweights, Tony Lopez (11-1, 4 KOs) dropped previously unbeaten Jerren “Hardknocks” Cochran (11-1-1, 4 KOs) twice with lefts in the opening round and finished him off in the second, knocking him out cold with a punishing right.
“Two mores seconds and I would have finished him off in the first,” Lopez remarked. “My corner told me that, after the lefts, come back with a right. They gave me the game plan and I executed.”
(L-R) Tony Lopez & Jerren Cochran
Dans le combat d'ouverture, Las Vegas favorite Jeremy “J-Flash” Nichols (4-0, 2 KOs) dominated Puerto Rican welterweight Juillet “L'Indien” Santos (2-3, 1 KO) on his way to a win by unanimous 4-round decision.
“I know I could have done a little better, throwing more combinations and jab,” Nichols said. “He came in trying but he couldn’t fight. I sent him back to Puerto Rico with a loss.”
