Fortuna Returns with Impressive KO over Formerly Undefeated Cabrera

להשאיר תגובה
ביום שבת night in front of a standing-room-only crowd at the Sambil Commercial Center in Santo Domingo, רפובליקה הדומיניקנית, former world super featherweight champion Javier “Abejon” Fortuna returned to action with an impressive two-round blowout of fellow Dominican Marlyn Cabrera.
In his first fight since a surprise defeat last June to Jason Sosa that cost him his WBA World Super Featherweight Championship, מזל (30-1-1, 22 קוס) dropped Cabrera twice in the second round, eliciting the stoppage. It was Cabrera’s first loss as a professional.
Fortuna’s victory was one of three Sampson Boxing fighters to win יום שבתלילה.
Undefeated 21-year-old Dominican super welterweight Jeison “Banana” וַרדִינָה (12-0, 9 קוס) destroyed formerly undefeated Carlos Jairo Cruz (עכשיו 17-1, 11 קוס) in two rounds and 22-year-old super featherweight Abraham “Super” Nova moved his record to 3-0, 2 KOs with a fourth-round knockout over Willy Morillo.
Fortuna looked sharp in his comeback bout, putting the explosive power and speed that makes him one of the most exciting fighters in all of boxing. With the victory over Cabrera in the books, the southpaw former champion will now be looking to regain his championship status.
Fortuna’s promoter, סמפסון לבקוביץ, says his fighter has two options to consider for his next fight.
“Next we will either look for an elimination bout for the IBF mandatory contender to fight Jose Pedraza or we will look to face the winner of Jason Sosa vs. Stephen Smith in Monaco on נובמבר 12,” אמר לבקוביץ. “Javier wants to be champion again and he’ll fight anyone to get there.”
וַרדִינָה, a recent Sampson Boxing signee to a long-term promotional agreement, is a former amateur standout with a wealth of boxing talent. Cruz stood no chance against the Santo Domingo-based slugger.
“Jeison is a future star and I’m happy to have him in my stable,” לבקוביץ 'המשיך. “I will get him a visa to fight in the USA and pay his IRS taxes, which I do for all my fighters.”
נובה, who was born in Carolina, פורטו ריקו, to Dominican parents, הלכתי 167-11 עם 60 KOs as an amateur, זכייה 2014 USA Nationals, the 2014 Independent World Cup in the Dominican, Gold at the 2014 Cheo Aponte Tournament, ו 2015 Olympic Qualifiers. He is also a five-time New York Golden Gloves Champion.
“Abraham went some good rounds and got the KO over a veteran with more fights,” אמר לבקוביץ. “I am happy with his performance and with the improvements he continues to show in every fight. He is a strong prospect with a bright future.”

IBF #2 super bantamweight contender Jonathan “סלומון מלך” גוזמן (21-0, 21 קוס) is hard at work preparing for the “fight of his life” with trainer Hector Bermudez at Peter Welch’s Gym in Boston.
The 26-year-old KO artist from Santo Domingo, רפובליקה הדומיניקנית, will face IBF #1 contender Shingo Wake (20-4-2, 12 קוס) ב יום רביעי, יולי 20, at EDION Arena Osaka in Osaka, יפן, for the vacant IBF World super bantamweight title.
גוזמן, who stopped Mexico’s tough Daniel Rosas in eighth round on אפריל 29 to earn this fight, says his dreams are so close to coming true he can almost taste them. “I have waited my whole life for a world title fight and now it’s almost here,” said Guzman. “I can’t wait to get in the ring and win for my family and my country.”
Trainer Bermudez says Guzman has too many weapons to fall short in this fight. “Although Jonathan has never had to go the distance because his power is amazing, he can also box very well. He’s just never had to thus far in his career. Jonathan is the complete package and soon the world will be learning all about him. There is no way that Wake can beat him.”
