Verona, NY (August 13, 2016) – Undefeated rising contender Miguel Flores (21-0, 9 KOs) defeated exciting featherweight contender Ryan Kielczweski (25-2, 7 KOs) nipa ipinnu unanimous (97-93, 96-94, 96-94) ninu awọn 10-yika akọkọ iṣẹlẹ ti Ijoba Boxing Awọn aṣaju-ija lori ESPN ati ESPN lati Titan-Stone ohun asegbeyin ti Casino ni Verona, Niu Yoki.
In an action-packed fight during which both fighters threw over 750 punches, the Houston native Flores was slightly more fluid and able to do enough work on the inside to keep his unblemished record intact.
Flores said, “I thought I would hurt him with body shots, so we did a lot of work down there tonight. I think my movement was the difference. Ryan said I couldn’t move, but I showed him and everyone else that I can.
As Flores appeared to be stealing the early rounds, Kielczweski stepped on the gas at the midway point, throwing punches in bunches and landing regularly throughout the second half of the bout.
Kielczweski said, “I thought we fought a great fight tonight for the fans. I started a little slow, but I really picked it up in the fifth round.
The increased activity was a little too belated to salvage the fight for the Quincy, MA native.
Kielczweski added, “I was gaining steam in the second half of the fight. I can’t say that I won, but I thought it could have been a draw. It was a good fight though, and I will be back.
An excited Flores said, “It felt great to get this win tonight. I boxed and banged it out with (Kielczweski). He had some pop, and in the last round he got me with a good body shot, but we are used to tough fights like this. I like it like that. This is fun to me. We will watch the video and correct what I know were a lot of mistakes, but I believe I’m ready for the next level. I’m ready for the top contenders.
Televised coverage kicked off with Olympic bronze medalist Yordenis Ugas (16-3, 7 KOs) defeating contender Jamal James (20-1, 9 KOs) nipa ipinnu unanimous (99-91, 98-92, 96-94) in a technical 10-round welterweight showdown.
Three days ago, James stepped in to replace undefeated welterweight Bryant Perrella, who was forced to withdraw from tonight’s bout because of an injury to his left thumb. James was coming off just 27 of days rest following his July 16 split decision victory over Wale Omotoso.
Ugas fought last 825 days ago when he lost his second consecutive bout, the third defeat of his career. Sibẹsibẹ, Ugas showed no sign of ring rust on Friday night as he casually controlled the action against James.
Ugas, a five-time Cuban National Champion, used his tremendous experience and was able to neutralize Jamesheight advantage.
We focused on the body because (James) was tall,” said Ugas. “So we planned on chopping him down, and that’s what I did.
Although Ugas had initially been preparing for his long-awaited comeback against the left handed Perrella, he had no difficulty with the orthodox James.
Ugas added, “I followed my corner’s instructions and won round by round. I felt very consistent in there tonight.
Knowing that he’d come up short, James said, “I thought it was a good fight. (Ugas) brought it tonight. I was fighting his fight unfortunately. I started to outpoint him late, so I should have started earlier with my combinations and countering. I was trying to knock him out and I should have just boxed.
James added, “I have no excuses though, I am a grown man and could have said ‘noto taking this fight. But fighting is what I do. Other fighters are not doing what I did tonight. Daju, if I had more time to prepare I might have done better, but I am a fighter.
On his prospects moving forward, Ugas said, “After the long layoff, this is a new beginning for me, and now I am looking for a big opportunity in my next fight. It felt good to get back to fighting.
A resilient James summed things up adding, “A fight like tonight makes me hungrier to get back in the gym and get myself ready to come back again better than ever.

Flores has picked up two victories on 2016 and will enter the ring again looking to put himself squarely in the crowded pool of featherweight contenders when he takes on Kielcsweski in the main event on ESPN and ESPN Deportes. Here is what Flores had to say about his matchup, training camp and more:
MIGUEL FLORES
On fighting in his first main event on ESPN
I’m very thrilled to be fighting in my first main event on ESPN because I know many boxing fans from around the world will be tuning in. I feel I bring an exciting style to the ring that the fans will enjoy. It’s fights like this, on a major TV network like ESPN, that take your brand to another level. So the goal is to perform at my best ability and bring even more excitement to the featherweight division.
On his recent training camp
Training camp has been very hard, but I know that hard work will pay off when it’s all said and done. I’ve had a lot of time to prepare for this fight so I’ll be at my best. My longtime trainer, Aaron Navarro, and my strength and conditioning coach, Edward Jackson, have been pushing me really hard. Together as a team, we will be ready to shine yi Friday.”
On his matchup with Ryan Kielczweski
Kielczweski is a very tough opponent. He’s a very good boxer with a tremendous amount of skill. He only has one loss, which was a split decision, ki si mi, he could easily be an undefeated fighter. Pẹlu ti a wi, I know I have to be at my best.
On the landscape of the featherweight division
The featherweight division is loaded with great fighters. Carl Frampton, Leo Santa Cruz, Gary Russell, and all the other title holders are very skilled fighters. With each win, I’m inching closer to facing all of them.
On fighting on the East Coast for the first time in his career
All my fights have been in Texas with the exception of a couple. So traveling to the East Coast will be something new for me. I plan to get there a few days early to get acclimated to the climate. Kielczweski is from Massachusetts, which is not far from the venue, so I know I’ll be up against all his hometown fans. I’m not worried about it. I just want to put on a great show, win this fight and capture all his fans in the process.

It’s always exciting to be fighting on ESPN, especially in the main event,” said Kielczweski. “Training is going well and I’ve been traveling around to get great sparring.

It’s going to be an exciting night and an electric fight.

GARY Russell JR. KNOCKS OUT PATRICK HYLAND TO RETAIN WBC FEATHERWEIGHT WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP SATURDAY NIGHT ON SHOWTIME®

MASHANTUCKET, Conn. (Apr. 17, 2016) – WBC Featherweight World Champion Gary Russell Jr. retained his title with a remarkable TKO of Irishman Patrick Hyland Saturdayon SHOWTIME from Fox Theater at Foxwoods Resort Casino in Mashantucket, Conn. Ni awọn àjọ-ẹya-ara, Jose Pedraza defended his IBF Junior Lightweight title with a unanimous decision over Stephen Smith.

 

Lalẹ ká event was a family affair with Russell Jr. working his brother Antonio’s corner during lalẹ ká undercard and boxing’s Smith brothers, including current WBO Super Welterweight World Champion Liam Smith, cheering from the crowd.

 

A relentless Russell brought the main event to a quick halt by registering three knockdowns in the second round, the last of which forced referee Danny Schiavone to end the contest at 1:33. Lati akọkọ Belii, awọn Washington, D.C. native came out swinging with his trademark hand speed and dangerous power. Russell, a southpaw, successfully broke down—and knocked out—Hyland with multiple vicious right hooks.

 

“We stuck to the game plan. We stayed sharp,” said Russell Jr., ti o se rẹ gba to 27 AamiEye, one loss, 15 knockouts.

 

“I’m ready to fight anyone in the division – Santa Cruz, Lee Selby. We are ready. But what I really want is [Vasyl] Lomachenko. I don’t care if he moves up to 147 poun. I will go anywhere to get that fight,” Russell said.

 

“There aren’t many fighters who you instantly know are special,” said SHOWTIME Sports expert analyst Steve Farhood. “The combination of Gary Russell’s hand speed and accuracy instantly shows us that he’s special. That was plainly evident lalẹ and at times his hand speed was frightening.”

 

Pedraza (22-0, 12 KOs) remained disciplined and came out victorious during his second IBF 130-pound world title defense. A combination of timing, hand speed and good defense allowed the Puerto Rican native to dominate the 12-round championship fight.

 

“This definitely was a tough fight but the training really came to advantage in this fight,” Pedraza told SHOWTIME Sports reporter Jim Gray. “I knew he was a tough fighter so I was always aware.”

 

“I had better focus lalẹ. I had a better training camp,” said Pedraza, referring to his controversial split decision win over Edner Cherry two fights ago. “I knew that Stephen Smith was a great fighter and even after the knockdown, we were very cautious not to rush in.”

 

“Pedraza won lalẹ with different weapons. Mostly right hands to the head,"Wi Farhood. “I had the fight even after eight rounds and once Pedraza dropped Smith in the ninth, he gained momentum that he never lost and he pulled away. It was an impressive performance but also an important one because it erased a lot of the negative criticism Pedraza received in his controversial win over Edner Cherry.”

 

Pedraza was the more accurate fighter, ibalẹ 50 percent of his power punches over the 12-round bout. The Sniper was able to pick his spots and pocket rounds once he figured out the distance. Smith had his moments, but wasn’t active enough.

 

Brian Custer hosted the SHOWTIME telecast, pẹlu Mauro Ranallo calling the action, Hall of Fame analyst Al Bernstein and former two-time world champion Paulie Malignaggi commentating and Jim Gray riroyin. Ni awọn Spanish simulcast, Alejandro Luna called the blow-by-blow and former world champion Raul Márquez served as color commentator. The executive producer of SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING was David Dinkins Jr. pẹlu Bob Dunphy directing.

Here’s what the fighters had to say at Wednesday ká final press conference.
GARY Russell JR.
(On Patrick Hyland…)
“First ati ṣaaju, I gotta tip my hat off to him. I heard him say he was being trained by his father. Me and my younger brothers are also trained by my dad. My father is my favorite superhero, so it is very hard to deal with a situation like this and to bounce back and to grind and put all the hard work and effort into it after all the heartache and loss, I gotta tip my hat off to him for that.
I know that anytime you have a fighter that trains for six to eight weeks and prepares for no one else but you, is a dangerous fight. O si ni ga, he’s long, but we can take him. We’re going to handle it.
(On returning from injury…)
“Inu mi dun. Mo setan; I put the work in at the gym. Like I said earlier, I got cussed out several times and sometimes I left the gym feeling like the worst fighter ever. Ṣugbọn, ni bayi, we’re ready and we’re prepared to invest in my ability.
(On what it means to have his brother Antonio on the card he’s headlining…)
It means a lot. I’m looking forward to it. I’m actually more looking forward to watching my brother compete than my own fight. I will definitely be working his corner in that fight. It means a lot for us to be able to pass this information down from generation to generation and watch it grow and watch us build as a family and as a unit. It’s amazing.
He definitely has the potential to be the best. Him as well as Antuanne, who is now on the 2016 Olympic team. It’s all information passed down from generation to generation. I feel as though they definitely have the ability to be better than me. I would want them to be anyway.
(On what he needs to win the fight…)
I need to maintain control of the fight, close the distance and maintain the jab. Complete dominance; I want to touch the body early. He likes to move a lot, so we’re going to cut all that down.
(On potential future opponents…)
God willing, everything goes right come April 16, we would love to unify with Lee Selby. If I had my choice, I would go with Lee Selby first to unify. Immediately after that, I want Leo Santa Cruz and after that I need Lomachenko.
I don’t care where [Lomachenko] moves. He can lose his next 10 njà, but before my career’s done he has to see me.
PATRICK HYLAND
(On what gives him the sense of satisfaction in boxing…)
To fight for the WBC title is everything I’ve dreamed of since I was a kid and all of the hard work that I have put in to get to this position to fight for it. I am happy and I am just living for it now for Saturday alẹ.”
(On being the first Irish boxer since Barry McGuigan to hold a featherweight world title…)
It’s a whirlwind and it’s great. I’m just a local lad from Johnstown in Dublin and to be fighting on the big stage and to be fighting for a major world title, and again to be named the second featherweight ever to win a world title would be just amazing; a real dream come true for myself.
(On Gary Russell…)
I know he’s got fast hands. He’s a great southpaw and a great boxer so I have to be at the best of my ability lojo satide night for that. I worked on a game plan in the gym to counter his hand speed and it all has to come together on fight night. I can do all this and say all that, but I just have to perform lojo satide night and put it in by doing everything I’ve worked on to become champion.
Jose Pedraza
(On training camp)
I am feeling really good, we’re in the last stretch of conditioning. It was a very long and intense training camp but we saw improvements in my abilities. I have been waiting a long time for this day to come and we are going to demonstrate to Smith that I am a weapon.
(On Stephen Smith)
Smith is a very good boxer, he has a lot of abilities and intelligence. He’s a boxer with very good defense, but we already utilize a variety of strategies to be able to neutralize all of his abilities.
(On what he plans to demonstrate lojo satide…)
With my abilities, bi eleyi Saturday, I will demonstrate that I am above Smith and that I am at the level of what I am, a champion. Ìwò, I just want to put on a show and I hope that the fan base will enjoy this great card.
(On what he learned from fighting Edner Cherry)
I learned what I have always said and what I have always done to this very day, which is never watching. I never watch too many videos of my opponent because on the day of the fight he could be a completely different fighter and I think that is what occurred then. Aside from that, he utilized a great strategy.
(On his thoughts on other Puerto Rican boxers)
Actually I am a world champion just like Rocky Martinez; there are many Puerto Rican prospects. Bi [Felix] Verdejo but I don’t consider him as a world title contender just yet. He hasn’t fought with a boxer of championship caliber but he is currently among the top fighters in Puerto Rico.
(On other fights he may be interested in at 130 poun…)
I have always said that the less Puerto Ricans I fight, awọn dara. If it is the last option, I will fight with Puerto Ricans too but aside from that Rocky [Martinez] the world champ, there’s Francisco Vargas, [Javier] Fortune, to name a few that are at the top of my list.
STEPHEN SMITH
(On his first time fighting in the U.S….)
“Mo dunnu. If you want to make a name in boxing, then you’re going to do it in the states and that’s what I plan on doing by becoming a world champion Saturday.
(On what he knows about Pedraza)
“Daradara, not quite a lot. I know his name from the amateur days. He’s well established, he’s an Olympian and he’s a talented man. To fight somebody consists of winning or not, it goes beyond tactics, beyond style and beyond skillset really. I believe I have what it takes to fight anyone and nothing will keep me from becoming a world champion.
(On what he needs to do to get the victory)
It can be a different type of fight; we know he likes to switch it up and box from different stances. He’s obviously talented so it’s going to take a different set from each way but we know what to expect. I’ve gone over everything with my trainer Joe Gallagher and we’re ready to go.
(On his brothers Liam and Callum being champions and what it could mean to potentially join them)
It’s special. Two weeks ago Liam and Callum won a European world title and it just gives me the confidence, the spirit to hike. I’m in a really good place mentally and I couldn’t be feeling better going into it. After my boot camp going successfully, it just makes you feel better going ahead to become a world champion.
(On UK champions on the rise in the past year)
There’s a lot of history there and for myself and my family, so we do what we’ve always wanted to do and we’re looking to just keep moving forward.
TRAINER JOE GALLAGHER
(On training camp)
It was good. Obviously it boiled up to Callum’s win. There’s a good momentum. Callum and then Stephen has his world title opportunity. It’s been a slow burning rise with Stephen but he’s got, as I call it ‘his World Cup final’ — something that is going to take heart and strength. His strength is going very well. Pedraza is a very good fighter, good orthodox, good southpaw, he can mix it up and we’re prepared for whatever style he wants to bring lojo satide.”
(On the process of preparing for a fighter like Pedraza)
It’s a nightmare. It’s hard enough when you’re fighting a quality orthodox or a quality southpaw, of which he is, but not only that. He can also box on the back foot and on the front foot so we’re varying sparring partners, we’re mixing up the sparring in between the rounds, switching stances, and whichever way Pedraza wants to fight at the end of the night, I’m sure we’ll have an answer for.
(On how he feels the fight will play out)
I think that’s all up to Pedraza, looking back at a few of his fights, he boxes slow and gets off to a good start but then he seems to lose his way a little in rounds. When you watch him against [Andrey] Klimov, he started out very well, put him under manners very quickly and had him nearly beat by the fourth round but [Andrey] managed to stay in very well and boxed really well. He got to the middle rounds, lost his way a little bit, switched southpaw, so either way it’s going to be fascinating. We’ve just got to make sure we don’t get caught to early when he’s quick and he’s sharp and he’s trying to put manners in Stephen Smith and then take him into the deep waters like Edner Cherry.
(His prediction)
Stephen Smith. Possibly by knockout. Ṣe Ko, definitely by knockout.

A 23-year-old fighting out of Washington, D.C., Antonio has won four of his five fights inside of the distance. He faces the 22-year-old Mexican Reyes.
Fighting out of Brooklyn but originally from Esmereldas, Ecuador, Gongora was an Olympian in 2008 ati 2012. Niwon titan pro ni 2015, the 26-year-old has picked up four victories, including a fourth-round stoppage of Derrick Adkins in his most recent triumph in January.

Danny O'Connor
“Eleyi jẹ gbogbo nipa mi ija awọn ilana. Gabriel Bracero beat me but I really beat myself. Just like training for this fight, we had a baby son. Two weeks before our first fight, my first son was born and I didn’t know how to separate sport from such life-changing events. Mo ti wà 14-0 ati ija on Showtime. We just had a baby boy two weeks before this fight. I want to prove to myself that I can beat this process. Bracero is my redemption!
“Eleyi jẹ ija mi vs. mi. The time was right for this fight. I was offered this fight five times during the past few years but the time wasn’t right.
I was a scared little kid with no experience in our first fight. I couldn’t handle the pressure, I didn’t even know it was there. Bayi, I’m a mature man who is a husband and father. I’m a totally different person.
This fight could be in my living room. I’m at peace in the ring doing what I love to do. It’s great being back in the ring in Lowell, ibi ti mo ti gba awọn New England Golden ibọwọ akọle ati ki o Mo n ni ija lori orilẹ-TV, ṣugbọn awọn iṣẹlẹ ni laarin awọn igun mẹrin ati awọn ti o ni ohun ti gan ni ère.”
Gabriel BRACERO
“Mo dunnu. I’ve trained for this fight like I’ve never fought Danny before. I beat him but that was four years ago. I can’t overlook him. He has obviously made improvements and I did also to get where we are today.
“Mo wa siwaju sii RÍ. I moved to train in Orlando and get away from distractions. I hit a few bumps and got incarcerated. Tommy Gallagher (olukọni) saved my lie. He was there when I went to prison and there when I got out. I added a new trainer to our corner, Alexander Lopes, ṣugbọn Tommy ati baba mi, Kiro, are still there. Tommy gives the orders and he likes what Lopez has done with me.
Tommy Gallagher is my guardian angel. He believed in me more than I believed in myself. He had this vision before I did.
Danny has become a better fighter. Mo ti ko le gba ohunkohun kuro lọwọ rẹ, sugbon mo n wa siwaju si nri lori kan ti iyanu išẹ Saturday alẹ.”
Jonathan Guzmán
“Mo n lilọ lati ṣe awọn ti o 20-fun-20, bẹẹni! I’m powerful because I make strong moves. My left hook is my best punch. Mo ti le lero awọn agbara mi gbogbo ara nigbati mo ti lu ẹnikan ọtun.
“Emi ko dààmú nípa mi alatako tabi ohun ti on ṣe ni awọn ti o ti kọja.
Lawrence is my home now. I will go back to the Dominican Republic in December for the holidays. I feel like a Bostonian. This is the sixth fight I’ve trained here for and I love the Boston Red Sox.
Danny Aquino
“Mi kẹhin ija propelled mi (alaafia nipa ipinnu lori Ryan Kielczweski). It made me more confident in myself. Mi kẹhin ija wà on ESPN ati yi ọkan jẹ on NBCSN.
I don’t know too much about my opponent other than he has power that I’ll be looking out for. A win over him should put me in the top 10 ati awọn ti o ni idi ti mo wa ki iwapele fun yi ija.
“Mo ti gba awọn New England Golden ibọwọ asiwaju ni Lowell Memorial Auditorium ni 2007.
“Mo irin ni lile ati ki o Mo wa nigbagbogbo ni dara to apẹrẹ lati lu enikeni.”
Ryan KIELCZWESKI
I like fighting at home and this is one of my favorite venues. I won the New England Golden Gloves there twice.
“Mo ti sọ oṣiṣẹ fun yi lati wa ni awọn toughest ija ti mi ọmọ.
“(Vásquez) is tough with a lot of power. He’s going come forward, sugbon Emi yoo ni anfani lati jade-apoti rẹ.
“O si n won won ninu awọn oke 10 ti awọn aye ati a win yẹ ki o fi mi pada ni awọn oke 10 ija fun aye a akọle laarin awọn tókàn odun.”
Rafael Vásquez
“Eleyi jẹ a nla anfani fun mi. I think this fight will put me on the map fighting on national TV and showing fans what I’ve got.
“Mo wa a ebi npa, small fighter determined to win. I fight for my wife, Sandra, ti o ni ipele-mẹrin akàn ati mẹjọ mi-odun-atijọ ọmọbìnrin, Kaline, who has autism. It’s not just me fighting in the ring, it’s the Vasquez family. With God’s grace, ohunkohun jẹ ṣee ṣe.
“Ryan rare a pupo. He uses the ring and boxes. He lost to Aquino and I know he’ll be coming back to prove himself. “
Gary “Spike” O'Sullivan
Boston is my second home. I love it here. The people are so nice and there are good gyms.
“Mo wa ohun moriwu, idanilaraya Onija ti o ba wa nigbagbogbo lati ja.
“Lẹhin ti mo ti pari pa Eubanks, Mo ti yoo jẹ awọn Bẹẹkọ. 1 contender ni awọn WBA ati Golovkin ba le si mu mi si pa eyikeyi to gun.
I watched a few clips of my opponent. We have identical records. We both knock people out, so I have to be careful. I’d like to get in a few rounds, ṣugbọn nigbati mo ti lu awon eniyan, ti won ti kuna.”
Stephen ORMOND
My first four fights were here in the US. Boston is like my second home. The people are so nice. Boston is a real fight city. I can’t wait for these people to see me in the ring.
I saw my opponent fight last year in Boston. He’s an experienced guy with a lot of fights. He fought for a world title a long time ago.
“Pẹlu Ken Casey sile mi, an impressive victory will get me a title shot. I’ll take any of them. Mo ti wà ọkan ija kuro, losing a qualifier. My grandmother passed away the day of my fight. I’m ready now!”

Lowell, Ibi. (October 6, 2015) – The great Boston vs. New York City sports rivalry continues Saturday, October 10 in the ring on national television with northeast bragging rights on the line as Ijoba Boxing Awọn aṣaju-ija (PBC) lori NBCSN comes to historic Lowell Memorial Auditorium in Lowell, Massachusetts.
The Boston home team sends out welterweight Danny “Bhoy” O'Connor (26-2, 10 KOs) ati featherweight Ryan “The Prince pólándì” Kielczweski (23-1, 7 KOs), lẹsẹsẹ, against Brooklyn invaders Gabriel “Tito” Bracero (23-2, 4 KOs) ati Rafael “Dynamite” Vazquez (16-1, 13 KOs).

O’Connorwill be seeking revenge for 2011 loss to Braceroin the 10-round main event, while Kielczweski faces the toughest test of his career versus Vasquez in their 10-round bout to open the NBCSN broadcast at 8 p.m. ATI/5 p.m. PT.
In the other scheduled televised fight, undefeated Dominican super bantamweight KO artistJonathan “Salomon King” Guzmán (19-0, 19 KOs), ija jade ninu wa nitosi Lawrence (MA), takes on Connecticut’s upset-minded Danny Aquino (17-2, 10 KOs) ninu awọn 10-yika-àjọ ẹya-ara.
Boston vs. New York is a classic matchup that has dominated sports headlines in the northeast for years as the New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox waged countless wars while the New England Patriots faced the New York Giants in two Super Bowls and continued their longtime rivalry with the New York Jets. The rich tradition of this rivalry has also spilled into the ring as many top fighters from each region have faced-off over the years.
The first significant Boston vs. NYC fight goes back to 1927 at Yankee Stadium, nigbawo Jack Dempsey duro Jack “The Boston GobSharkey in the seventh round of their heavyweight title eliminator to challenge world champion Gene Tunney. Controversy surrounded this fight as Sharkey, a sailor in the U.S. Ọgagun, fought his boxing idol, Dempsey, who along with Babe Ruth ruled Manhattan during America’s Golden Age of Sports in the 1920s. Sharkey out-boxed Dempsey for six rounds until, complaining to the referee about Dempsey’s low punches, he was knocked out cold with a picture-perfect left hook.
Another legendary heavyweight champion from the Boston area, Rocky Marciano, wouldn’t have retired with his famous 49-0 record if one round or another were scored differently against Bronx favorite Roland LaStarza in 1950. Marciano took a questionable 10-round decision from LaStarza at Madison Square Garden. Three years later at the Polo Grounds, Marciano successfully defended his world title, knocking out LaStarza in the 11thround of their 1953 Ija ti Odun.
A pair of Hall of Fame heavyweights from Brooklyn, Floyd Patterson ati “Iron” Mike Tyson, lẹsẹsẹ, knocked out Boston’s Tom McNeeley ati awọn ọmọ rẹ, Peter McNeeley. McNeeley dropped Patterson once but he hit the deck 11 times before finally succumbing in the fourth round of their 1961 title fight in Toronto. His son, Peter, lost by first-round disqualification to Tyson who was fighting for the first since being released from prison.
A fireman from Boston with brittle hands, Paul Pender, twice defeated arguably the consensus Greatest of All-time, Harlem’s “Sugar” Ray Robinson, not once but twice by 15-round split decisions in 1960 world middleweight title fights at the Boston Garden.
“Iyanu” Marvin Hagler, a transplanted New Jersey fighter who lived in Marciano’s hometown of Brockton, Ibi., felt ripped off when he was given a draw in his first world title fight against Brooklyn’s defending champion Vito Antuofermo ni Las fegasi. Two years later in 1981, Hagler captured the coveted crown at the Boston Garden as Antuofermo retired after four rounds.
Even Lowell’s “Irish” Micky Ward had a New York City rival in Brooklyn’s Zab Judah, who he dropped a hard-fought 12-round decision to in 1998. For many years Judah said Ward was the toughest opponent he ever fought.
Die laipe, Irish Olympian Kevin McBride, fighting out of the Dorchester section of Boston, ended Tyson’s career in 2005 with a sixth-round TKO victory that left the boxing world in shock, and Boston heavyweight John Ruizthe only Latino heavyweight champion of the worldwon a 2008 fight in Mexico against Harlem’s Jameel McCline by 12-round decision in a world title eliminator.
Lori October 10, O'Connor, Bracero, Kielczweski and Vazquez will have their opportunity to not only represent their hometowns, but to etch themselves into the annals of the rivalry.
