UNCASVILLE, Кон. - Април 10, 2021 - Rising welterweight star Jaron “Boots” Ennis aced the toughest test of his professional career with a sensational sixth-round knockout win over former world champion Сергей Lipinets in the main event on Saturday night’s SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast, live on SHOWTIME from Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Кон., in a Premier Boxing Champions event.

The win puts Philadelphia’s Ennis (27-0, 25 Нокаута) one step closer to his first world title opportunity as he dismantled the former 140-pound world champion over six rounds of their welterweight battle. As he has done often throughout his career, the 23-year-old switched effortlessly between an orthodox and southpaw stance and exhibited tremendous power from both sides. Ennis finished the fight with an eye-popping 53% connect rate on his power punches and out-landed Lipinets 91 към 48.

“I’ll always be hard on myself when I look back at my performance,” said Ennis. “My goal is to keep getting better, sharper, faster and stronger so I can become world champion. As long as I keep fighting top guys, Аз съм щастлив. I feel like I will be world champion by the end of this year or beginning of next year. Patience is the key though.”

The 32-year-old Joe Goossen-trained Lipinets (16-2-1, 12 Нокаута) of Woodland Hills, Калифорния., showed determination in weathering the onslaught of combinations from Ennis. An uppercut floored the Kazakhstan-born Lipinets and sent him to the canvas for the second time in his professional career in the fourth round. Prior to tonight, Lipinets had only been down in his other professional loss which came at the hands of four-division world champion Mikey Garcia.

“Lipinets has been in there with the best before, so I wasn’t surprised he held up for a while,” added Ennis. “I knew he’d be durable. That’s why I didn’t jump on the gas right away. I just took my time and broke him down.”

В шестия кръг, Ennis poured it on Lipinets from all angles as he beautifully assembled combinations. The budding superstar has yet to go past the sixth round in his professional career as he has amassed a remarkable 89% Съотношение нокаут. Ennis was up 49-45 on two scorecards and 50-44 on the final judges’ card prior to the right hook to left uppercut combination that resulted in the fight being stopped at 2:11 на шест кръгли. Saturday night marked Ennis’ first time headlining SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING

“I think I graduated tonight,” stated Ennis. “It’s on the up and up now. It’s onto bigger and better fights now.”

В съвместно функцията SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP Бокс, a pair of hard-hitting welterweights went toe-to-toe as Eimantas Stanionis (13-0, 9 Нокаута) beat former world title challengerThomas Dulorme (25-5-1, 16 Нокаута) via unanimous decision in a WBA Welterweight Title Eliminator. This was the most difficult challenge of the rising 26-year-old’s career as Dulorme took him past the ninth round for the first time. The three ringside judges scored the fight 115-113, 116-112 и 117-111.

“It’s been a dream since I was a kid watching SHOWTIME to be on this stage,” said Stanionis. “I’m proud of what I’ve achieved. I’ve had a long hard journey to get here, but it’s been worth it.”

The two fighters combined for nearly 1,400 punches in their exciting welterweight battle. Stanionis outlanded the 31-year-old Dulorme 232 към 193 and edged his opponent with higher connection percentages across the board. Most notably, Stanionis worked well behind his powerful jab, приземяване 123 total throughout the 12-round fight.

“Dulorme always threw back at me, even if I hurt him,” stated Stanionis, who is one step closer to becoming Lithuania’s first world champion. “I knew that if I was wild, he could have caught me with a good shot. I have more confidence in myself now because I know I can go 12 rounds with a good fighter. I know how the pressure will hit me now. Всичко може да се случи в този спорт, so I made sure I was prepared coming into this fight.”

В 10тата кръг, a nasty cut opened above the left eye of Dulorme which was ruled by referee Harvey Dock to have resulted from a punch. The fight came to a fantastic finish as the Lithuanian prospect went for the knockout in the 12тата round but the veteran Dulorme did not subdue to the pressure.

В телевизията отварачка, IBF Junior Bantamweight World Champion Jerwin “Pretty Boy” Ancajas (31-1-2, 22 Нокаута) successfully defended his title for the ninth time with a unanimous decision victory over Jonathan Rodríguez (21-2, 16 Нокаута) in an action-packed 12-round affair. The victory extends Ancajas’ streak of consecutive title defenses to nine, which marks the most of any current world champion. Fighting out of the Philippines, the 29-year-old controlled the pace of the fight with a consistent dedication to the body, където е кацнал 131 на неговата 232 общо удари.

“I’m very happy to get the win. I waited a long time for the opportunity to get back in the ring and it’s exciting to win in my first fight on this stage fighting on SHOWTIME,” said Ancajas. “This was my toughest fight so far. It was the hardest of any of my nine defenses and it’s exciting that it was on a big card. I trained hard for this opportunity and it feels great to get the win.”

The title fight featured back-and-forth action with Mexico’s Rodriguez pressuring and baiting the champion to fight him at close distance. At the end of the eighth round, Ancajas finished a flurry of punches with a huge right hand that sent Rodriguez to the canvas for the first time in his career.

“I thought he was going to be stopped because I saw him look at his corner and it didn’t look like he wanted to go on,” continued Ancajas. “But he got up and fought and I respect him for doing that.”

The ringside judges scored the fight 115-112, 116-111 и 117-110 for Ancajas, while unofficial ringside scorer Steve Farhood tallied the fight at 114-113. Farhood agreed with the three official judges in giving the final three rounds to Rodriguez. Despite dropping the decision, the 25-year-old Rodriguez impressed fight fans with his tremendous determination and high-level skill in his first world title fight and U.S. дебют.

“I don’t think it was a just decision,” said Rodriguez. “I thought maybe a split decision, and I would accept it a little more. But we knew coming in that the judges were against us in this fight.”

В петък вечер, BELLATOR on SHOWTIME took center stage at Mohegan Sun Arena with the first fight of the BELLATOR MMA Light Heavyweight World Grand Prix that saw current heavyweight champion Ryan Bader avenge his 2012 loss to Lyoto Machida with a dominating unanimous decision to move onto the next round. Bader made an appearance on Saturday’s SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast to reflect on his impressive victory.

“It was very sweet [to get revenge]. It was a gauge to see how far I’ve grown, тъй като 2012. And I’ve done a lot, and he’s done a lot. So to go out there and implement my game plan and stick to what we do and go out there and be victorious, it couldn’t be sweeter.”

Събота SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP Бокс telecast will replay Sunday, Април 11 при 9 А.М. ET/PT and Tuesday, Април 13 при 10 p.m. ET on SHOWTIME EXTREME.

He’s a good guy so I’m rooting for him. But if I have to fight him, I know he’s tough. I’m in this tournament and I ran through another tournament before. I had fun so that’s why I came down here. It doesn’t matter who’s in my way. I want that belt back and this was the first step right here.

“There’s redemption this whole tournament. I got one back on Machida but I’ve lost to Nemkov and I’ve lost to Anthony Johnson, so I would like to meet one of them in the finals. But honestly, to make it to the finals and fight for the belt, I’d be happy with whoever it is.”

I came in here with the hopes that I would work up the ranks to fight for the title. I just need to know what I need to do. You tell me who I need to beat to get that fight and I’ll do it.

“I’m coming there to take a win home to Philadelphia and look good doing it, by any means,” – Ennis

Rising Welterweight Star Ennis Battles Former World Champion Sergey Lipinets Saturday, Април 10 Живеят на SHOWTIME® in a Premier Boxing Champions Event

PHILADELPHIA (Април 1, 2021) - Непобеждаван полусредна категория Jaron “Boots” Ennis will look to cement his status as a rising star in the welterweight division when he takes on rugged former world champion Сергей Lipinets in a 12-round battle that headlines action live on SHOWTIME Saturday, Април 10 от Mohegan Sun Arena в Uncasville, Кон. in a Premier Boxing Champions event.

The 23-year-old Ennis will be facing the toughest competition of his career in Lipinets, as he enters the ring in his first SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING main event. Representing the fighting city of Philadelphia, Ennis has used sublime boxing skills and power in both hands to make his claim as the city’s next great champion.

Ennis put together a 16-fight knockout streak that included becoming the first person to stop Juan Carlos Abreu when he blasted out the longtime challenger in the sixth round in August 2020. Ennis was unable to extend that streak in December 2020, when his fight against Chris van Heerden was declared a no-contest after round one due to a clash of heads causing a severe cut on Van Heerden’s forehead.

Trained by his father Bozy Ennis, Ennis shared his thoughts on training camp, Lipinets and more below:

On headlining his first Showtime Championship Boxing card:

“It has made my schedule a little crazier. Being in the main event on SHOWTIME brings more attention, but I like it. I like being in the spotlight. I like to shine, so it’s nothing new to me. Now it’s fight time. I am locked in and ready to rock and roll.”

On training camp:

“We always do four-minute rounds in camp. I’ve been doing that since I was a baby. That’s another reason why I don’t sit down when I fight, because I am so used to the four-minute rounds. The three-minute rounds go by real fast on fight night. One thing we added this camp was the underwater treadmill work.”

On his final preparations:

“The week before the fight, we are winding it down and sharpening up. It’s been a great training camp. I have been getting better and better each and every day, and I can’t wait to perform next Saturday.”

On facing his first former world champion:

"Той е добър боец, but it doesn’t mean anything to me. It’s just another day in the office. He’s a regular person just like anyone else.”

On Sergey calling him a ‘typical Philly fighter’:

“I guess he knows I’m tough, gritty and I’m ready to rumble. I’m coming there to take a win home to Philadelphia and look good doing it, by any means.”

On his knockout power:

“I don’t think I have my man strength yet. I feel it will be one or two more years until I fully have my man strength. The crazy part is, I feel like in a fight, I still haven’t thrown a real power shot and really sat down on a punch yet. Everything I’ve been knocking guys out with has been all natural strength.”

On how he views his knockout streak:

“Some people might look at a knockout on April 10 като 17тата последователен нокаут, some might view it as the start of a new knockout streak. За мен, I don’t really care as long as I come out victorious. That’s all that matters to me. I’m not looking for a knockout but I’m going to take it if it comes.”

Hard-Hitting Welterweights Eimantas Stanionis and Thomas Dulorme Duel in WBA Title Eliminator; IBF Junior Bantamweight Champion Jerwin Ancajas Defends Title Against Jonathan Rodríguez in Televised Opener

NEW YORK – March 17, 2021 – Rising welterweight star Jaron “Boots” Ennis faces his most difficult test in pursuit of a world title shot as he headlines his first SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING® срещу бившия световен шампион Сергей Lipinets. These formidable contenders meet in a 12-round, crossroads fight with welterweight world title implications on Saturday, Април 10 живеят на SHOWTIME в 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT from Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Кон. in a Premier Boxing Champions event.

В съвместно функцията SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP Бокс, a pair of hard-hitting welterweights square off as Eimantas Stanionis takes another step up in class as he faces former world title challenger Thomas Dulorme in a 12-round WBA Welterweight Title Eliminator. The telecast opener features IBF Junior Bantamweight World Champion Jerwin “Pretty Boy” Ancajas защитава титлата си срещу Jonathan Rodríguez в 12-кръг на мач.

Събитието се популяризира от TGB Promotions. Ennis vs. Lipinets is promoted in association with D&D Boxing.

“Ennis vs. Lipinets is a fantastic fight in the welterweight division that pits an ascending force in Ennis against a former world champion in Lipinets,- каза Том Браун, Председател на TGB Промоции. “It’s a very competitive fight that presents a fascinating clash of styles and will have big implications on the future of the 147-pound division. Another sensational young welterweight will look for a career best win in the co-feature, as Eimantas Stanionis takes on his toughest test to date in the veteran Thomas Dulorme. Adding in 115-pound champion Jerwin Ancajas seeking an impressive ninth title defense against Mexico’s Jonathan Rodríguez, and all the ingredients are in place for an action-packed night on SHOWTIME April 10.”

Енис (26-0, 24 Нокаута) is the latest in the pantheon of outstanding Philadelphia fighters, combining sublime boxing skills with natural power in both hands. After numerous appearances on ShoBox: Новото поколение, the 23-year-old Ennis has graduated to headlining his first SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast. Heading into his last bout against Chris van Heerden, Ennis was riding a streak of 16 consecutive knockouts. That streak ended when the fight was stopped after the first round due to an accidental clash of heads that opened a severe cut on the forehead of Van Heerden.

“I’m excited to be back April 10,” said Ennis. “This is the type of fight I’ve been waiting for. I can’t wait to perform and put on a beautiful show. Y’all will see something special out of me come fight night. I’m excited to be the main event. It’s time for me to shine!"

The 31-year-old Lipinets (16-1-1, 12 Нокаута) established himself as a force at 140 pounds when he won the IBF world title with a victory over Akihiro Kondo in 2017. He lost the title to four-division world champion Mikey Garcia in 2018 and then moved up to welterweight in 2019. He served notice that he would be a contender at welterweight when he scored an impressive stoppage victory over two-division champion Lamont Peterson in 2019. Born in Kazakhstan and representing Russia, Lipinets now lives in Woodland Hills, California and is trained by renowned trainer Joe Goossen. Lipinets is coming off a hard-fought majority draw against undefeated Custio Clayton in October 2020.

“Training is grueling and I’m working hard with Joe Goossen to be at my best on fight night,” said Lipinets. “We have a tough, young fighter in Ennis who thinks I’m a stepping stone for him. But sometimes stepping stones trip you up, and I’ll be doing my best to trip him up on April 10. I’m just doing my best to get prepared for what I expect to be a dog fight. Every fan that knows boxing knows that this is going to be a real war and worth tuning in for. I expect we’ll be fighting in a phone booth at times, but I also expect him to try to use his reach and fight me at a distance at times. But no matter what he does, I’ll be ready for him.”

Stanionis (12-0, 9 Нокаута) has put together a string of impressive victories as he has climbed up the ranks from prospect to contender. He enters the match against Dulorme with four consecutive knockout victories. The 26-year-old from Lithuania, who now lives and trains in California, looked impressive as he picked up three solid victories in 2019, beating Samuel Figueroa via unanimous decision and scoring early stoppages against Julio Cesar Sanchez and Evincii Dixon. The undefeated welterweight has put the division on notice with back-to-back dominating main event performances in November and December 2020, when he notched ninth-round knockouts over Justin DeLoach and Janer Gonzalez respectively.

“This is my first time fighting on SHOWTIME and it feels like a dream come true,” said Stanionis. “Dulorme is experienced and has been a good fighter for a long time. На хартия, this is my toughest fight, но аз съм готов. I’ll be prepared for whatever he brings. With our styles, това ще бъде една война. I’m ready to fight right now. Somebody is going down and no matter what happens, the fans are going to win.”

The 31-year-old Dulorme (25-4-1, 16 Нокаута) has amassed a solid resume at 140 и 147 pounds during his career, climbing into the ring with world champions Yordenis Ugas, Jessie Vargas and Terence Crawford. Born in Marigot, Guadeloupe but fighting out of and representing Carolina, Puerto Rico, Dulorme rebounded from a loss to Crawford for a 140-pound title by scoring back-to-back knockouts, followed by a narrow decision loss to top welterweight Yordenis Ugas. The world title challenger is coming off a unanimous decision loss to Jamal James in his last fight in August.

“I’m very excited for this fight on April 10,” said Dulorme. “I came up short in my last fight for the title, but a win against Stanionis will put me right back into the position I want. He’s young and strong, but I have a lot more experience and I will show it in the ring and it will lead me to victory.”

Representing the Philippines, Ancajas (32-1-2, 22 Нокаута) was only 15 years old when he was spotted by boxing legend Manny Pacquiao. The young fighter blossomed with Pacquiao’s guidance, becoming the first world champion under Pacquiao’s promotional banner when he outpointed McJoe Arroyo for the IBF World Junior Bantamweight title in September 2016. The 29-year-old southpaw hasn’t lost since and will be making the ninth defense of his title when he faces Rodríguez. In his most recent outing in December, Ancajas stopped Miguel Gonzalez in six rounds.

“I am really looking forward to returning to the ring on April 10 for my first fight on SHOWTIME,” said Ancajas. “Everybody knows the great rivalry between the Philippines and Mexico, and I look forward to adding another explosive fight to that history. Fight fans know where all the action fights are right now, and that’s the 115-pound division. I’m thankful for this opportunity and I plan to make the most of it.”

Mexico’s Rodríguez (22-1, 16 Нокаута) was given the nickname “Titan” because of his prodigious power. Since suffering a disputed split-decision loss to Jose Martin Estrada Garcia in March 2018, the 25-year-old has won six straight, including a first-round knockout victory over Julian Yedras last December. He will be making his U.S. debut against Ancajas.

“This is the opportunity of a lifetime for me,” said Rodríguez. “When I started boxing, it was my dream to fight for the world title and win it. През месец април 10, all of my dreams and hard work will come true when I hear ‘and the new IBF champion of the world.’”

UNCASVILLE, Кон. - Март 13, 2021 - Former two-time world champion David Benavidez kept his perfect ring record intact with an 11тата-round technical knockout victory against veteran Роналд Елис in their WBC Super Middleweight Title Eliminator main event on Saturday night’s SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast, live on SHOWTIME from Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Кон., in a Premier Boxing Champions event.

Phoenix’s Benavidez (24-0, 21 Нокаута) flashed brilliant hand speed, accuracy and power as he dominated Ellis (18-2-2, 12 Нокаута) от Lynn, Mass., над 11 rounds before referee Johnny Callas finally waved off the fight at 2:03 of the penultimate round. The 24-year-old star held a significant lead on all three scorecards (99-91, 98-92 x2) в момента на спирането.

“I rate my performance pretty good but I know I could have done better,” said Benavidez, who extended his perfect record to 24-0. “Ronald Ellis is a tough competitor. I just hope the fans like what they saw. I threw a lot of combinations, punches in bunches. There were a lot of times I thought Ellis was going to quit but he didn’t. Hats off to him, Той е труден човек. It was a little later than I wanted but a stoppage is still a stoppage. I hope the fans got a good show tonight.”

A boxing prodigy turned youngest super middleweight world champion in boxing history, Benavidez turned in a masterful performance as evidenced by his punch stats, приземяване 289 на 532 power punches thrown for an eye-popping connection rate of 54%. Benavidez connected on 50 punches in the 11тата round which ultimately led to the stoppage. Both fighters combined to throw 1,403 щанци. Following his dominating win on SHOWTIME, Benavidez is one step closer to reclaiming a super middleweight world title.

“I want all the big guys,- добави Бенавидез. “Speaking for the fans too, they would love to see me against all the big guys because as you can see, I love throwing punches. I love stopping people so me versus any big name would be an amazing fight. Искам [Jermall] Charlo, Canelo Alvarez, Калеб Plant, all of them.”

Ellis, 31, showed tremendous determination and a very sturdy chin as he absorbed the constant onslaught from the former two-time world champion. Often working off the ropes as Benavidez pressed the action, Ellis landed 89 на неговата 334 ваксини.

“I could have popped the jab and controlled things a little bit more and not let him smother me,” said Ellis. “Hell yeah I wanted to finish. I didn’t want to give him that satisfaction. I could have moved a little bit more and not taken so many shots to the head. Hats off to him. He did what he had to do. Той никога не ме боли, that’s the funny thing. I took a lot of shots but he didn’t damage me or have me super hurt. I never thought about quitting.”

The sports world lost an icon today as the death of Marvelous Marvin Hagler was reported hours before the live telecast began. A member of the International Boxing Hall of Fame, Hagler, който е бил 66 възраст, fought in the first main event ever on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING on March 10, 1986. Hagler was honored with a ceremonial 10-count prior to tonight’s main event. Click Here to Watch SHOWTIME’s Tribute to Marvin Hagler

Benavidez reflected on Hagler’s passing after the fight: “I had met Marvin once before and he was a great champion. Someone told me he fought the first fight on SHOWTIME. Someone on my team let me know a few hours before the fight that he had passed. It’s sad and he will be missed. He was a true legend.”

В съвместно основното събитие, Isaac Cruz (21-1-1, 15 Нокаута) of Mexico City earned a unanimous decision victory over Argentina’s Matias Romero (24-1, 8 Нокаута) in a 12-round WBA Lightweight Title Eliminator. It marked the first time that the 22-year-old Cruz went 12 rounds in his professional career. The judges’ scorecards read 114-113, 115-112 и 118-109. Неофициалният голмайстор на SHOWTIME Стив Фардхуу вкара битката 115-112, giving rounds 10 през 12 to the rising star.

“I’m not happy about the style of the fight but I am satisfied I took the victory home and we’ve come to the No. 1 spot in the WBA,", Каза Крус. “I didn’t know what was going to happen [as far as the judges]. We forced the fight at all times and it would have been very impossible for the judges to do something to me when I was the one pushing the fight.”

Throughout the 36-minute affair, Cruz constantly applied pressure against his opponent which led to Romero, the more seasoned professional, to hold excessively in an attempt to stall the pressure. Despite being warned frequently by referee Harvey Dock, the 24-year-old Romero was never penalized. During the rough-and-tumble contest, обаче, Cruz was docked a point in the sixth round for a low blow.

“He was a fighter who didn’t want to exchange punches,” Cruz added, in reference to the persistent clinching. “I was very fed up with the clinches—there was never a warning toward him. I did my best out there. Not the best way I wanted to do it but thank God we won the fight and we’re taking the victory home.”

Romero presented an effective jab throughout the fight, приземяване 89 на 282, but it was Cruz’s power punching that ultimately earned him the victory. Cross, who is now the No. 1 contender for a world title shot at 135 паунда, поземлен 145 на 459 захранващи удари, включително и 91 снимки на тялото.

“Obviously I’m not happy with the decision,” stated Romero following his first professional loss. “I thought maybe it was a draw. Overall I’m happy with my performance. He’s supposed to the be the ‘Pit Bull’ and I went the distance. You have to take the opportunities when they are presented and I wish I would have had more time to get ready for this fight.”

In the evening’s opening bout, Cleveland’s Теръл Gausha (22-2-1, 11 Нокаута) scored an impressive second-round technical knockout over fellow Ohioan Jamontay Clark (15-2-1, 7 Нокаута) Синсинати. Gausha, 33, did not land a single power punch in the opening round but worked well behind the jab, winning the round on two of the judges’ scorecards. As the second round neared completion, Gausha beautifully countered a lunging left hand from the southpaw Clark which sent the 26-year-old to the canvas for the first time in his professional career. Clark beat the count but moments later was met by a barrage of unanswered punches in the neutral corner. Referee Arthur Mercante jumped in and called a halt to the bout at 2:44 на втория кръг.

“I knew Jamontay was a tough kid, I’ve been watching him since Cleveland so I knew about him already,каза Гауша. “I felt like I had a chance to knock him out but I didn’t know how the fight would play out. But I feel I did good, executed the game plan. My coaches had been studying film and we executed.

“I just took my time,” added Gausha. “I was setting traps. I knew he would be open eventually, but I had to be cautious too because he’s a rangy guy, has a good left hand. But I knew there were holes in his game and we executed and when the opportunity presented itself, we landed that big right hand.”

With his emphatic stoppage win, на 2012 Olympian emerges as a contender for a title shot in the super welterweight division. In his first and only world title shot in 2017, Gausha dropped a unanimous decision to current super welterweight world champion Erislandy Lara.

“I know I made a statement tonight,” added Gausha. “I put the division on notice. I’m locked and loaded and I’m ready. I want to be a world champion so I’m looking to fight whoever I need to fight to get to the belts.”

Събота SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP Бокс telecast will replay Sunday at 8:55 А.М. ET/PT on SHOWTIME and Monday at 10 p.m. ET on SHOWTIME EXTREME.

Veteran sportscaster Brian Custer hosted the telecast. Versatile combat sports voice Mauro Ranallo called the action ringside alongside Hall of Fame analyst Al Bernstein and three-division world champion Abner Mares. Two Hall of Famers rounded out the telecast team: boxing historian Steve Farhood as unofficial scorer and world-renowned ring announcer Jimmy Lennon Jr. The telecast was available in Spanish via Secondary Audio Programming (SAP) with former junior middleweight world champion Raúl “El Diamante” Marquez and Alejandro Luna calling the action.

иконом, който законно промени името си на SugarHill Steward, за да почете покойния си чичо треньор на Залата на славата Емануел Стюард, призовава Керефов, „Един от най-добрите средни тежести в света в момента,”И че няма ограничение докъде може да стигне 30-годишният. „Нямаме дълги разговори поради езиковата бариера, но съм впечатлен как Тимур е в състояние да обработва информацията, която му казвам, и бързо се подобрявайте за краткото време, в което сме работили заедно,- каза Стюард, който също тренира Антъни Дирел в Big Time Boxing and Fitness в Boca Raton, Fla. “The Russians who come to Detroit are here to work and not run the streets, която ми харесва. They have families and know that boxing in the United States is the mecca. Така, they take it very seriously.”

Бокачика срещу. Reyes – 10-Round Welterweight Main Event Bout

Bocachica returns for his second consecutiveShoBox appearance as the 22-year-old Detroit native overpowered Puerto Rico’s Nicklaus Flaz from the start earning a first-round TKO at 2:43 of round one in October. Bocachica is a four-year pro who began boxing at age eight. He won four consecutive Ringside Championships (2011-14), the National PAL Championships and the 2015 Detroit Golden Gloves. He boasts an amateur record of 55-5. He is trained by his father, Nelson Figueroa.

“After the last appearance onShoBox, I felt like that was the performance that I needed,” Bochachia said. “I picked Mark Reyes out myself because I wanted better competition and he is 14-0. I want to put a statement out to all of the fighters in the 147-pound division. A win gets me closer to my dreams. I am fighting better opposition. It shows that Janelson is the truth, and I am coming for everyone in the welterweight division. I am not worrying about anything.”

Reyes is coming off of a first-round knockout of Diego Perez on November 21, in his hometown of Tampa. Reyes was a successful amateur winning the PAL National Tournament in 2012, as well as the Junior Olympics and Ringside Tournament. He also won two National tournaments competing for Puerto Rico: the 2015 Frankie Larvae National Championships and 2016 Cheo Aponte National Championships. Общо, той натрупа рекорд от 45-5 преди да стане професионалист през март 2016. Сега той е обучен от Раул “Чино” Ривас, който също е треньор на бившия световен шампион Тевин Фармър.

„Радвам се, че съм в тази позиция, биейки се наShoBox, където победа ще постави името ми на боксовата карта,- каза Рейес. „Бокачица е солиден боец, но с нетърпение очаквам да добавя първата загуба към неговия запис и да покажа на зрителите защо взех тази битка на кратко. Тренировъчният лагер вървеше отлично и ще бъда готов.”

Шишкин срещу. Агбеко - 10 рунд в супер средна категория

Преди това Шишкин се е бил два пътиShoBox печелейки впечатляващи победи над Ulises Sierra и DeAndre Ware. Стюард отправи ъгъла на Шишкин за битката със Сиера, но ангажиментът на Стюард към шампиона в тежка категория Тайсън Фюри не е позволил на двамата да тренират изключително заедно. Наскоро Шишкин работи с Л. Дж. Harrison. В последната си битка през август 20, той записа технически нокаут от деветия рунд на Оскар Риохас. В момента Шишкин е класиран №. 9 от WBC, Do Not. 11 от WBA и не по-. 12 от IBF в 168-паундова дивизия.

"Благодарен съм, отново, за да получа шанса да покажа уменията си на SHOWTIME,- каза Шишкин, 29. „Подготвям се в нова фитнес зала, наречена Superbad, с нов треньор. Любопитен съм как това ще ми повлияе в схватката. Знам, че тази битка ме поставя само на една крачка по-близо до целта ми да стана световен шампион. "

Роден и израснал в Акра, Гана, Агбеко беше член на националния отбор на Гана като младеж и беше 69 аматьорски пристъпи. Агбеко се включи професионалист 2011 на възраст от 19 и имаше първото си 15 в Гана, преди да се премести в Съединените щати през 2013 да преследва мечтата си да стане световен шампион. Агбеко е усъвършенствал своя занаят, служейки като спаринг партньор на Caleb Plant, Баду Джак и Брандън Адамс. В момента Агбеко живее в Нашвил, Тенеси., със съпругата си.

„Обучението върви чудесно и ние тренираме от известно време, така че просто удвояваме няколко неща и също така прецизираме борбата,- каза Агбеко. „Знам, че опонентът ми има богат аматьорски опит и стил, който отразява откъде е в Русия. Очаквам агресивен, но добре пресметнат боец. Ще спечеля тази битка, защото знам, че я искам повече и, като резултат, са положили повече усилия в подготовката. Моите превъзходни боксови умения, съчетани с желание и усилия, ще го направят. "

Воин срещу. Монтоя - Осем кръг лек двубой

Борбата от Хюстън, Texas, Guerrero е голям шанс, който спечели тясно оспорван плугфест с решение на мнозинството над Хосе Ангуло в последнияShoBox излъчване преди пандемията на COVID-19 затвори спортния свят за няколко месеца през март 2020. Преди тази победа, Гереро беше спрял трима поредни противници, включително нокаута за втори кръг на Дарнел Джайлс, Jr. през януари 2020. Известен аматьор, който спечели две национални титли за юноши, 22-годишният „Свинско месо“ е направил спаринг със световните шампиони Майки Гарсия и Брандън Риос в известната боксова академия Гарсия в Калифорния.

„Не знам нищо за опонента си, но гледах един негов клип и това е всичко, което трябваше да видя, за да разбера, че ще слезе,- каза Гереро. „Тази битка ще означава много за мен, защото ще покаже на света, че съм истинската сделка. Ще спечеля тази битка за кариерата и семейството си. "

26-годишната Монтоя, на Долна Калифорния, Мексико, ще дебютира в САЩ на февруари 17 и ще се бие извън родния си Мексико само за втори път. След отпадането на втория си професионален конкурс, Монтоя се събра, за да остане непобеден в следващия си 18 пристъпи преди пътуване до Русия през ноември 2019 да поеме непобедената перспектива Мохамедхуджа Якубов, където загуби решение от 12 кръга. Монтоя отскочи, за да отбележи втория рунд на TKO над Рейес Дейвид Лопес, последния му аут през октомври, and also owns an impressive victory over then-undefeated prospect Luis Alberto Lopez Vargas.

“Fighting in the U.S. and on SHOWTIME has always been my dream and I can’t wait for February 17 to show what I can do,- каза Монтоя. “I’ve never worked or trained as hard for a fight as I have for this one. I’ve seen my opponent and know he will bring the action just like his last fight. He will be tough, but I’m as ready for this as I’ve ever been.”

Kerefov vs. Espana – Eight-Round Middleweight Bout

Hailing from Shaluska, Русия, and now fighting out of Detroit, Mich., Kerefov will make hisShoBox debut on February 17. Kerefov, 30, amassed an impressive 298-12 amateur record in his home country during his nearly decade-long reign at the elite level of international amateur boxing. В 2019, Kerefov turned in five impressive victories in Russia prior to his United States debut at the famed Kronk Gym in Detroit in August 2020, where he turned in a dominating unanimous decision victory over Calvin Metcalf in a middleweight bout.

“I am in the middle of a great training camp with trainer SugarHill Steward in Florida,” Kerefov said. “I look forward to showing the boxing fans that I am the new face of the middleweight division.”

The 31-year-old southpaw, Espana, will be fighting for the first time in the United States as 14 на неговата 16 professional bouts have taken place in Venezuela. The power-punching Espana’s only career loss was to Dervin Colina in 2019 и 14 на неговата 15 victories have come via knockout. През декември, he TKO’d Leonard Carrillo in his last fight.

„Това е чудесна възможност за мен да се появя в САЩ“, каза Еспана. „Знам много малко за опонента си, но това изобщо не ме притеснява. Винаги тренирам и съм готов да измина дистанцията или по-малко. Победата ще ме приближи до световна титла. "

Международната боксова зала на известността Бари Томпкинс ще извика екшъна от ринга заедно с колегата от Залата на славата и историка на бокса Стив Фардъти и бившият световен шампион Раул Маркес, служещи като експертни анализатори.

UNCASVILLE, Кон. - декември 20, 2020 - Непобедена петна категория Реймарт Габало вкара спорна победа с разделено решение над бившия световен шампион Emmanuel Rodriguez в основното събитие в събота вечер SHOWTIMEBOXING: СПЕЦИАЛНО ИЗДАНИЕ от Mohegan Sun Arena в Uncasville, Кон., в събитие, представен от Premier боксови шампиони. С победата, Габало взе свободната временна титла в WBC в петна категория.

Хедлайнер в събота в последното събитие SHOWTIME BOX на 2020 беше състезателен от звънеца. Само в три от дванадесетте рунда Родригес и Габало бяха разделени от повече от три удара. Общо, Парчета (24-0, 20 Нокаута) хвърли 148 повече удари от Родригес (19-2, 12 Нокаута), но все пак успя да се свърже 16 по-малко мощни удари. Ударите на 28-годишния Родригес изглеждаха по-чисти, докато той поклащаше филипинския Габало неведнъж. Обаче, двама от съдиите подкрепиха агресията на Габало над генералния пръстен на Родригес.

Неофициалният голмайстор на SHOWTIME Стив Фардхуу вкара битката 118-110 в полза на Родригес и анализатор на SHOWTIME и бивш световен шампион Раул Маркес беше потресен от решението на съдиите.

„Няма начин Габало да е спечелил тази битка,- каза Маркес. „В най-лошия сценарий, може би бихте могли да му дадете три рунда. Не му давах кръгове. "

„Много съм щастлив и благословен да спечеля този пояс,”, Каза 24-годишният Габало. „Винаги се движех напред и контролирах темпото, затова си помислих, че това е тясна битка, която всеки от нас би могъл да спечели.

„Очаквам екипът ми да ми каже какво са планирали за мен по-нататък. Ще продължа да тренирам усилено, така че винаги съм готов за възможността, когато дойде. "

„Беше добра битка, но той спечели само около два или три рунда,” said Rodriguez. “There were two punches from me for every punch he landed. He knows he lost. Everyone knows we won. My team told me to go out and keep boxing him in the late rounds. We knew he needed a knockout in the twelfth round. That was his only chance to win.”

В съвместно основното събитие, Philadelphia’s undefeated welterweight sensation Джарън Енис (26-0, 24 Нокаута) saw his impressive 16-fight knockout streak come to a disappointing end after an accidental headbutt in the first round caused a brutal cut to the forehead of his opponent, Крис ван Херден (28-2-1, 12 Нокаута).

With only two minutes and thirty-nine seconds inside the ring to showcase his skills, Ennis was still able to flash glimpses of his championship potential as he landed 22 на 57 щанци, 19 of them power shots as he appeared destined to stop the South African van Heerden and keep his KO streak alive before the clash of heads.

“Before the headbutt I had already cut him and I felt strong,” said a disappointed Ennis. “I knew he was ready to go. I feel like I’m getting better and better. Now I’ll just get back in the gym. As you could see from the first round, I was handling him easily. I feel like everyone is still sleeping on me, but I’m ready for anyone. Bring on the big names.”

В телевизията отварачка, bantamweight contender Гари Antonio Russell (18-0, 12 Нокаута) kept his unblemished record intact with a technical decision victory over former world champion Juan Carlos Паяно (21-5, 9 Нокаута). After an accidental headbutt caused a bad cut to the left brow of Payano, referee David Fields stopped the fight after the sixth round at the advice of the ringside physician. The fight went to the scorecards, where Russell led on all three cards (58-56, 59-55, 59-55).

Преди вредата, Russell and Payano were engaged in a scrappy brawl that saw multiple exchanges of power punches. In the closing seconds of the sixth, and ultimately final round, Russell caught Payano with a counter-shot that hurt Payano. Russell landed 86 на 243 punches while Payano landed just 58 на 268 щанци. Russell flashed excellent body work throughout the fight, out landing Payano 40 към 17 on body shots.
