“The Dragon” to be unleashed April 16th Live on CBS Sports Network from DLVEC in Las Vegas
|
LAS VEGAS (April 5, 2016) – Aprila 16th10-round main event between Canadian welterweight Steve “The Dragon” Claggett and South Africa-native Kris “The Heat” Van Heerden embodies the “Knockout Night at the D” philosophy in terms of featuring action fighters in evenly matched, entertaining bouts.
The “Knockout Night at the D” serija, presented by D Las Vegas iDowntown Las Vegas Events Center(DLVEC), se promovira Roy Jones Jr. (RJJ) Boxing Promotions.
APR. 16th “Knockout Night at the D” event will air Subota noć, April 16 (8 poslije podne. PT / 11 poslije podne. I), živjeti CBS Sports Network from under the neon lights at the DLVEC outdoor venue.
The broadcast team includes Jim “JR” Ross, Sean Wheelock i bivši prvak svijeta Kevin “The Flushing Flash” Kelley. Joe Martinez is the ring announcer.
Claggett vs. Van Heerden is a crossroads fight for both boxers with critical consequences, especially for the winner who will use it as an invaluable springboard for his boxing career.
The 26-year-old Claggett (23-3-1, 16 KOs), who is the reigning Canadian Professional Boxing Council and Canadian welterweight champion, is thrilled to be fighting in Las Vegas for the first time. “To je ostvarenje sna,” objasnio je. “I’ve trained in Las Vegas often but now it’s time to show what I can do there in a fight. A win will open many doors for me and could potentially lead to a path that will set up the rest of my boxing life. Needless to say, I am focused and prepared for the opportunity.”
VIDEO PROMO LINK:
Claggett, as well as Van Heerden, are known as high-action fighters, throwing punches in bunches, and something eventually has to give. Van Heerden (23-1-1, 12 KOs), fighting out of Santa Monica (KAO ŠTO), is a former International Boxing Organization (IBO) i Međunarodne bokserske federacije (IBF) velter šampion.
“Van Heerden is a rangy, quick and active fighter,” Claggett said. “I have an action style but, for many years, I was strictly a pressure fighter with a good body shot. Danas, iako, I have a couple of more tricks up my sleeve. His heart and durability have been shown and is to be respected. This match-up is sure to produce some good exchanges. I expect this to be a high-action fight between two hungry fighters with him coming off a loss (to unbeaten rising star Errol Spence Jr. last September) and me coming off more than one fight falling through. This is a great match up. He is similar to the style of (Konstantin)Ponomarev (who Claggett lost an 8-round decision to last year) with range and movement. And that motivates me!”

Undefeated prospect Toka Kahn-Clary Returns to ring this Saturday night vs. Gabino Cota in Studio City, Kalifornija
CRANSTON, RI(Februar 8, 2016) – Rising super featherweight star Toka “T-Nice” Kahn-Clary(17-0, 11 KOs) returns to action this Saturday night against Mexican opponent Gabino “Blic” Cota (18-5-1, 16 KOs) at Sportsman Lodge in Studio City, Kalifornija. A decorated American amateur boxer (131-11 rekord), his career highlighted by a gold-medal performance at the 2010 Nacionalni Golden Gloves turnir, Kahn-Clary is a native of Liberia who passed on a shot to make the 2016 U.S. Olimpijski Boks Team, prije okretanja pro tri godine.
Kahn-Clary’s impressive second-round stoppage of Sergio “Cuatito” Lopez (19-10-1, 13 KOs) last November was supposed to lead him graduating to a 10-round fighter. His promoter Top Rank’s show ove subote, pod naslovom by Alex Saucedo vs. Clarence Booth, doesn’t have a single 10-round fight, in favor of three 8-rounders including Kahn-Clary vs. Cota.
“That really doesn’t matter to me,” Kahn-Clary said. “I trained to beat this guy, not how many rounds. I’m a lot better fighter than I was a year ago. I’m a lot more relaxed in the ring. I think more as I’m moving in the ring, adjusting a lot better, and my combinations are coming out a lot better.”
A former WBC FECOMBOX and Mexican featherweight champion, Cota is a dangerous opponent who has knocked out 16 od 18 fighters he’s defeated as a professional.
“Cota may have lost four of his last six but they were all title fights or on television against name opponents,” Kahn-Clary glavu trener Peter Manfredo, Sr. napomenuti. “He has some pop, throws a zillion punches and just keeps coming forward. This is a good step up for Toka.
“Toka is ready for this fight. He’s had a lot of good sparring. Toka is aggressive, well-conditioned, a good defensive fighter who can crack. There wasn’t a 10-round fight available on this card but we wanted this fight. Toka’s still only 23 so there’s no reason to rush things.”
Cota is battle tested having fought world title challengerJonathan Oquendo, Portorikanski olimpijka Orlando Cruzand Russian champion Andrey Klimov.
“I like fighting guys that come to me like Cota,” Kahn-Clary remarked. “It makes my job easier. I can setup my punches and fights against guys like this aren’t as much as a chess match. I’ll be landing hard shots and fans like that better than a chess match.”

Neporažen Prospect Toka Kahn-Clary diplomanata 10-okrugli borac
-sve slike ljubaznošću Mikey Williams / Top Rank-
CRANSTON, RI (Novembar 25, 2015) – After his impressive second-round stoppage of Sergio “Cuatito” Lopez (19-10-1, 13 KOs) Last Friday Night u The Cosmopolitan u Las Vegasu, neporažen blue-chip perolaka izgledi Toka “T-Nice” Kahn-Clary (17-0, 11 KOs) je službeno diplomirao iz osam do deset rundi borac.
“”Moj nastup je bio dobar,” Kahn-Clary looked back on his knockout of Lopez. “I didn’t do anything to make it a difficult fight. I was a little concerned that my opponent came in overweight (128 lbs. težina ugovor, ali Lopez težio 132.2 lbs.), but I didn’t think too much of it. I really wanted to go four or five rounds for some more experience, ali sam stavio ga u drugom kolu sa desnicom, i odveli ga. (Lopez je u stanju da odgovori na zvono za treće kolo.)
(L-R) Toka Kahn-Clary i sudija Jay Nady |
“Ja sam definitivno spreman za 10-rounders. (Glava trener) Nestajati (Manfredo, Sr.) Uvijek mi je radi puno rada uređaja. Sparirali smo dosta metaka za osam rundi borbe, so I’ve been ready for 10-round fights. I won’t be fighting again until next year, ali ja ću se vratiti u teretani sljedećeg ponedjeljka.”
A uređen američki amater koji je imao 131-11 rekord, naglašene zlatnu medalju-nastup na 2010 Nacionalni Golden Gloves turnir, Kahn-Clary donijela na šut kako bi 2016 U.S. Olimpijski Boks Team, prije okretanja pro tri godine.
(L-R) – Šef trener Peter Manfredo, Sr. & Toka Kahn-Clary |
“Mislim da je Toka napravio veliku izjavu i tako učinio Top Rank (Kahn-Clary promoter),” Manfredo added. “They’re so high on him that they want to put him in a big fight. I told them to give us a 10-round fight first, možda u januaru ili februaru, and then we can talk about him fighting a top guy. There’s no rush; on je samo 23.
“Toka’s really maturing. He still doesn’t have ‘man strength’ but he’s getting there. He always works hard. He spars hard with bigger guys. He doesn’t just beat up a sparring partner, on tuče u teretanu, three or four fighters a session. And most of the time he’s sparring bigger guys and using big gloves.”
Rođen u Liberiji, the 23-year-old Kahn-Clary is a rising star with lofty expectations. “Želim da se natječu na najvišem nivou,” objasnio je. “Naredne godine, I will keep working hard and hopefully fight some decent named opponents. I’m not ready for the top guys in my division, ne još, ali ja ću biti tamo u još godinu dana.”

Neporažen blue-chip izgledi Toka Kahn-Clary Liberija ime native odluka u Americi
Da bi se borio Sergio Lopez ove subote u Las Vegasu

(sve slike po Jeny Luna Hernandez-Watson)
PROVIDENCE (Novembar 16, 2015) — Neporažen pero Prospect Toka “T-Nice” Kahn-Clary (16-0, 10 KOs) može biti najbolji, relativno “nepoznata” borca u zemlji, barem izvan New England.
A uređen američki amater koji je imao 131-11 rekord, naglašene zlatnu medalju-nastup na 2010 Nacionalni Golden Gloves turnir, Kahn-Clary se vraća u ring ove subote noć (Novembar. 20) The Cosmopolitan u Las Vegasu protiv meksičke protivnika Sergio “Cuatito” Lopez (19-9-1, 13 KOs) u ono što bi trebalo da bude Kahn-Clary prošle rasporedu osam rundi meča prije nego diplomira na 10-rounders.
“On je teška meksički borac koji mogu box malo na izvana,” Kahn-Clary govorio o svom naredni protivnik, “ali on dolazi napred, suviše. On je iskusan i bio je u sa mnogo dobrih protivnika.”
Lopez je ozbiljan test za bilo kakve izglede. His last three fights include a loss to 18-0 Alejandro Luna (KO4) ovo prošlog avgusta, 10-okrugli split crtati s 24-7-1 Joksan Hernandez, i zadivljujući peti krug-tehnički nokaut 16-0 Victor Betancourt.
“Lopez je gamer,” Kahn-Clary glavu trener Peter Manfredo, Sr. dodao. He’s tough but our plan is for Toka to take him apart and eventually take him out. Toka’s not far away from a really big fight, možda 8-10 mjeseci. We were offered a big fight but, moramo prvo jedan 10-krug borbe, i on dobiti tu borbu početkom naredne godine.”
Kahn-Clary, bori se Providence, dolazi sa svojih najznačajnijih pobjeda kao profesionalni prošlog juna, u kojoj je ušao u klasu da preuzme 33-11 Jonathan Perez, bivši kolumbijski super bantam i World Boxing Council (WBC) prvak. Kahn-Clary stopped Perez in the sixth round of their fight on a card headlined by Timothy Bradley'E privremene titulu svjetskog prvaka u velter kategoriji pridobiti Jessie Vargas u StubHub centru u Carson, Kalifornija.
23-godišnjak, koji je rođen Toka Kahn, will never face obstacles in the ring more difficult to overcome than his early life experiences. Now a blue-chip prospect, he was born in Liberia and came to America with his younger sister to join their father when he was only six. He lived in Philadelphia only one year before his father was killed in a shooting. Toka’s arduous journey continued as he and his sister moved to Providence, gdje su živjeli sa hranitelji koji, iskreno, Nije me bilo briga što im se dogodilo.
Sve je ukazivalo na Toka uzimajući u nevolji na Providence ulicama kao mladić, posebno na vrijeme, kada je bio beskućnik. Srećom, iako, prijatelj ga je doveo u Manfredo teretane u Pawtuckert, RI. Boxing truly saved his life. Manfredo, SAD Boxing New England predsjednik Jim Perella i par koji ga je na kraju usvojen, Andrea Watson i Ron Clary, dramatično promijenio njegov život.
Kahn-Clary potpisala promotivni ugovor sa Top Rank, koji, zajedno sa menadžerom Mike Criscio i Manfredo, Kahn-Clary su se preselili na stabilan, gore tempo. Kahn-Clary, slučajno, će se boriti za treći put ove godine, nakon što je prošle godine pet.
“Top Rank je odradio dobar posao mi je zauzet,” southpaw Kahn-Clary commented. “I know that it takes time to climb the ladder and I still need to improve a few things. I need to beat a top fighter to get into the world rankings. I’ll be ready when I get that call.
“Ja sam spreman odmah za 10 ili 12 okrugli borba. I’ve done a lot of sparring to help me get ready to step up. I’m excited about fighting 10 i 12 round fights because it’ll be a test for me and I love to be test. The top guys in my division are the (Gary) Russell, (Umoranl) Lomachenkoi (Lav) Santa Cruz. I have the skills and heart to compete with them.”
Kvaliteta sparing u New England je u premium, posebno za manji i težine borca kao što je Kahn-Clary, koji je stekao neprocenjivo iskustvo sparing sa WBA super perolakaJavier Fortuna (29-0-1, 21 KOs), tri puta US Olympian Rau'shee Warren i njegove kolege New England i prijatelj, New Haven’s Luis “KO King” Rosa (21-0, 10 KOs).
“Nestajati (Manfredo) i ja putuju u Worcester (MA) Connecticut i da se dobar rad,” the gifted boxer-puncher Toka-Kahn explained. “It’s been a great help for me. I’ve gotten a lot of valuable experience in there with fighters like Fortuna and Warren. Vidio sam njihov prsten Generala, njihovo kretanje, and I’ve learned from them. They’re smart. I’ve learned from them, even try to copy them. It’s not just about sparring, što je iskustvo učenja. Ako ne uče iz sparing, sve što ćete ikada biti sparing partner je.”
Manfredo je oko i on shvata da je njegova nagrada učenik, Kahn-Clary, will need to go away to training camp for good sparring when he starts fighting 10-rounders. “Ja sam dobar prijatelj sa Freddie Roach a mi ćemo izaći u Kaliforniju i trenira na Wild Card Gym,” Manfredo concluded. “I’m very happy with the way Toka’s been moved. I have faith in Brad Goodman, koji je jedan od najboljih, if not the best matchmaker in the world. They’ve moved Toka along at a good pace. They know what they’re doing.”
U međuvremenu, Toka Kahn-Clary plans to make his name in boxing next year. Prvi, iako, on mora otarasiti Lopez ove subote noć da zadrži zamah ide.
