New England’s Future 3Results from Worcester, MA
WORCESTER, Masse. (Juni 11, 2017) – Boxing returned to DCU Arena (Exhibition Hall) for første gang i 11 år and Worcester’s newest budding star, Irvin Gonzalez, entertained the hometown crowd, capturing the vacant Universal Boxing Federation (UBF) Featherweight Championship, last night in theNew England’s Future 3” main event.
New England’s Future 3was presented by Rivera Promotions Entertainment (RPE), which is owned and operated by retired three-time, to-division verdensmester Jose Antonio Rivera og hans søn, Anthonee (A.J.) Rivera. RPE will return to the DCU Center on October 28th for its final installment of “New Englands fremtid” series in 2017.
In the co-featured attraction, popular New York City heavyweight SonyaThe ScholarLamonakis, by way of Greece and Turners Falls, MA, konfronteret LauraLady RamRamsey in a female battle of former world champions for the vacant UBF World title,
The 21-year-old Gonzalez (7-0, 6 KOS) was fighting in his first scheduled eight-round bout, mod Raul Lopez (10-32-1, 5 KOS), Bronx (NY). The two fighters came out fast in a firefight, both throwing leather from all angles, although neither was hurt in the opening round. The pace picked up even more in the second as both fighters landed solid shots.
Fighting in the third round for the first time in his young professional career, Gonzalez turned up the heat, ripping effective combination to the head and body of Lopez, who responded by pounding Gonzalez on the ropes.
Gonzalez dropped Lopez early in the fourth with a strong right to the chin, followed by a brawling fifth round, and the action slowed slightly in the sixth. Gonzalez, who took control in the final two rounds, went the distance for the first time, taking a hard-fought eight-round unanimous decision (79-73 X 2, 76-75).
He was definitely the toughest I’ve fought,” Gonzalez said after the fight. “I still have to work on things in the gym. I didn’t go to the body like I did in my last few fights. I was head-hunting tonight. The dude was tough, I had to out-box him. I hurt my left hand late in the later rounds and stayed southpaw.
I definitely learned a lot. My conditioning was there and I went eight strong rounds. Jeg har det godt, I could go another eight rounds. Fighting at home was good, I have a big fan-base here. I hope to be back here in October 28th.”
Lamonakis (10-2-3, 1 KO), a former IBO world champion, and past GBU world titlist Ramsey (108-1, 5 KOS) went toe-to-toe from the opening bell for 10 konkurrencedygtig, non-stop rounds, ending in a 10-round draw by three judges’ scoringer af 95-95.
Undefeated Worcester heavyweight Bryan Daniels (5-0, 3 KOS) unloaded on an over-matched ChristopherThe ArchbishopBoykins (1-9), dropping the Floridian three times in the second round until referee Leo Gerstel mercifully waved off the fight at the end of the second.
Former No. 1 USA amateur boxer Bobby Harris III, the son of multiple national amateur champion and retired pro heavyweight, Bobby Harris, made his long-awaited pro debut. Fighting out of Worcester, Harris overcame early roughhouse tactics by Brazilian light heavyweight Rodrigo Almeida, af Woburn, MA, to earn a four-round “lukke ude” beslutning.
In a rematch of a fight this past April, Antonio Chaves Fernandez (8-32-4, 2 KOS), of Brockton (MA), defeated Worcester welterweight Andy Gonzalez (6-2, 5 KOS), by way of a six-round majority decision, to even their rivalry at 1-1.
Southbridge, MA welterweight Wilfredo “den Sucaro” Pagan (2-0) and his Lawrence, MA opponent, Anthony Everett (1-6), turned in an entertaining performance as Pagan won a four-round majority decision, despite him being decked in the final round.
Lawrence, MA welterweight Adrian Sosa (3-0, 3 KOS) needed only 41-second to stop New York City’s Zach Johnson (0-2). Sosa dropped Johnson in the first 10 seconds and again moments later, after which referee Gerstel halted the action.
Springfield, MA welterweight Derrick “Dobbelt Impact” Whitley (2-0), the son of a retired professional boxer, forbedret til 2-0 with a four-round unanimous decision over veteran Connecticut fighter Shaka Moore (12-23-3, 2 KOS).
Worcester’s pro-debuting Neal Sullivan (0-0-1) and Brazilian super middleweight Saul Almeida (0-8-1) opened the night fighting a four-round majority draw.

Heavyweight Sonya Lamonakis Takes on Laura Ramsey for vacant UBF World Championship

New England’s Future 3June 10th i Worcester, MA
WORCESTER, Masse. (Juni 1, 2017) – Popular heavyweight SonyaThe ScholarLamonakis tager på LauraLady RamRamsey om den ledige Universal Boxing Federation (UBF) World title, på lørdag nat, Juni 10, i otte-runde “New England’s Future 3co-feature at the DCU Center (Exhibition Hall) i Worcester, Massachusetts.
New England’s Future 3is presented by Rivera Promotions Entertainment (RPE), which is owned and operated by retired three-time, to division verdensmester Jose Antonio Rivera og hans søn, Anthonee (A.J.) Rivera.
Undefeated prospect Irvin Gonzalez (6-0, 6 KOS), 21, headlines at home in his first scheduled eight-round bout, versus Raul Lopez (10-2-1, 5 KOS), Bronx (NY), for the vacant UBF All-American super featherweight championship.
I am excited to be able to have our first world championship boxing match on our ‘New England’s 3’ boksning begivenhed,” promoter Jose Rivera commented. “It’s special because it’s a women’s World Heavyweight title fight with veterans like Sonya and Laura, who also have some hostilities towards one another. They’ve both earned this opportunity to fight for the UBF Women’s World Heavyweight Championship. I expect fireworks and know fans will be in for a treat.
Pro boxing returns to the DCU Center for the first time i 11 år, when promoter Jose Antonio Rivera defeated Alejandro Garcia, by way of a 12-round unanimous decision, for World Boxing Association (WBA) World super welterweight title.
Born in Greece, Lamonakis (10-2-2, 1 KO), who grew-up in Turners Falls (MA), is a teacher in New York City. She is a Springfield College graduate and has two Master’s Degrees. “I’m honored to be fighting in the first world title fight in Worcester since Jose Rivera,” Lamonakis said. “I’m from Massachusetts and I fought twice at Mechanics Hall (i Worcester, including her pro debut in 2010). I heard Jose was promoting shows in Worcester, so I called to say I’d like to fight for a world title on one of his cards. I think he saw me fight before and he quickly agreed.
This is still a make-dominates sport. I tell young girls to box as a side job. I have two Master’s Degrees and I’m a full-time teacher in New York. Boxing is my hobby. Very few women can make enough money boxing to make a good living. I don’t know if it’s because I was born in Greece and boxing is in my blood, but I love this sport and that’s what keeps me going. I guess I was born to fight. I enjoy getting in the ring. I’ve gotten a lot from boxing and now I’m giving back to amateurs in New York City as president of a youth organization.
Lamonakis; is a former International Boxing Organization World and New York State female heavyweight champion. Her opponent, Ramsey (10-7, KOS), as a two-time world title challenger is hoping the third time is the charm for her. They have history together and this fight nearly happened a few years ago.
I beat her daughter (Alysia Williams-Stevenson) in my second pro fight,” Lamonakis explained. “She said she’s see me and now, seven years later, we’re fighting. She’s a little older than me and I needed more fights before I fought her. We were supposed to fight a few years ago in Aruba but a hurricane cancelled the show.
In an eight-round Special Cruiserweight Attraction, Pembroke (MA) fan favorit VinnieAmerican NightmareCarita (16-1-1, 15 KOS) meets Brazilian knockout specialist Marcelo LeonardoQueizadaDa Silva (22-4, 17 KOS).
Fighting på undercard, alt i fire-runde anfald, are Worcester welterweight Andy Gonzalez (6-1, 5 KOS) vs. TBA, Lawrence (MA) junior weltervægt AdrianTonka” Sosa (2-0, 2 KOS) vs. Buffalo’s Jack Grady (0-5-1), Worcester fjervægt Andino Ranse (1-0) vs. Woburn (MA) Gilvan Santos (0-3), Springfield (MA) junior mellemvægt Derrick “Dobbelt Impact” Whitley (1-0) vs. Norwalk (CT) veteran Shaka Moore (12-22-3, 2 KOS), Worcester’s pro-debuting Bobby Harris III vs. Woburn (MA) super mellemvægt Rodrigo Almeida (1-6), Southbridge (MA) junior weltervægt Wilfredo “den Sucaro” Pagan (1-0) vs. Lawrence’s Anthony Everett (1-5), Worcester’s Bryan Daniels (4-0, 2 KOS) vs. Florida’s ChristopherThe ArchbishopBoykins (1-8) at a 205-pound catchweight, Hartford’s (CT) Richie “Skipper Skræk Man” Rivera (1-0, 1 KO) vs. Brazilian Nathan Schulte (0-2) at a 180-pound catchweight, and Worcester’s pro-debuting Neal Sullivan vs. Framingham (MA) super mellemvægt Saul Almeida (0-8).

Budding star Irvin Gonzalez Starting to make waves in Super featherweight division

PRESSEMEDDELELSE
New England’s Future 3June 10th i Worcester, MA

WORCESTER, Masse. (Maj 24, 2017) – New England’s top prospect with 10 pro fights of less, undefeated hometown favorite Irvin Gonzalez, is on a fast track going into his June 10th headline fight in the third installment of the “New Englands fremtid” serie, på DCU Center (Exhibition Hall) i Worcester, Massachusetts.

New England’s Future 3is presented by Rivera Promotions Entertainment (RPE), which is owned and operated by retired three-time, to division verdensmester Jose Antonio Rivera og hans søn, Anthonee (A.J.) Rivera.
The 21-year-old Gonzalez (6-0, 6 KOS) tager på Raul Lopez (10-2-1, 5 KOS), Bronx (NY), in an eight-round main event for the vacant Universal Boxing Federation (UBF) All-American super featherweight championship.
Pro boxing returns to the DCU Center for the first time i 11 år, ironisk, when promoter Jose Antonio Rivera defeated Alejandro Garcia, by way of a 12-round unanimous decision, for World Boxing Association (WBA) World super welterweight title.
I am excited to watch Irvin’s boxing career flourish,” promoter Jose Rivera remarked. “He has all the tools to become a world champion. Fighting for the UBF championship will be the first of many and I am glad that we are able to give him this opportunity. I see big things for Irvin and I hope fans come out Lørdag nat, Juni 10th, to support him and the other local boxers.”.
“Dette er en stor mulighed for mig,” Gonzalez sagde. “I’m blessed to be fighting in Worcester for my first title. It’s not a big title but it’s like taking baby steps to a world title. Since I started boxing at the Boys & piger klub, I always wanted to be like Jose, a three-time world champion. Nu, it’s my turn, and I’m fighting again in my city.
Gonzalez has a perfect pro record: six rights, six wins by knockout. Men, he’s only had fought a grand total of eight rounds, og juni 10th he’s in a scheduled eight-round match. The well-spoken youngster isn’t concerned with the step up in rounds and opposition.
I’ve been asked about that by a lot of media, trainers and other fighters,” he explained. “I’ve always trained like it’s for a world title fight, 12 runder, so I’m not worried about going into deep water. I’m in magnificent shape, three weeks before the fight, and even in the amateurs I’ve always gotten stronger as the fight went along. In sparring, I get stronger, so going eight isn’t a problem for me.
I don’t really know much about my opponent. He won a few national titles but hasn’t fought too often. I’ll see what he brings into the ring and then adjust. I know I’m taller.
Gonzalez learned a lot when he was a sparring partner for Guillermo Rigondeaux in Florida that was supposed to be a six-week training camp that ended after three weeks due to Rigondeauxfight being cancelled.
I learned a lot about different training methods that I now use,” Irvin continued. “His techniques are phenomenal. I was around a world champion, two-time Olympic gold medalist and I saw his work ethic. After all he’s accomplished, he still has a great work ethic, and I learned from him that a fighter need continue working like he does until the day it’s all over. It’s not all about money, it’s having fun every day, doing what we love.
Former world female heavyweight champions SonyaThe ScholarLamonakis (10-2-2, 1 KO), the New York City teacher who lived in Turners Falls (MA), og LauraLady RamRamsey (10-7, 5 KOS) battle for the vacant UBF World heavyweight title in the eight-round co-featured event.

We have two UBF title fights on the line with Sonya Lamonakis fighting for the female UBF Heavyweight World Title and Worcester’s own Irving Gonzalez, in only his seventh pro fight, fighting for the UBF 126-pound division East Regional championship. I’m also excited to have five Worcester boxers on our event at the DCU and I hope our Worcester fan-base comes out to support them.
