NEW YORK (Jan. 9, 2017) – The previously announced matchup between undefeated WBA ranked No 3-ranked super bantamweight Adam Lopez and the WBA’s No. 4-класирана Danny Roman has been elevated to a 12-round title eliminator for the WBA (редовен) Super Bantamweight belt held by Nehomar Cermeno.

Lopez is a classic example of a ShoBox prospect-turned-contender. Той е 3-0-1 on the series, having defeated three previous unbeaten boxers. Roman has won 13 in a row dating to March 2014, and none of the fights have been close.
“I am excited that this is an elimination bout and I am one step closer to fighting for a world championship,", Каза Лопес. “Very few fighters ever get a chance to fight for a title, and I’m not going to let it slip away. It’s a huge motivator, and the stakes are higher. I am fighting for a chance to fight a guy in Cermeno who is 37 and maybe past his prime. So if I win on Януари 20, I feel I will win against Cermeno. He is beatable, and that is the perfect opponent to become a world champion. After I beat Roman, Cermeno will pass the torch to me.”
Said Roman: “This is what we’ve been working toward since day one. A shot at a world title is every boxer’s dream. I can’t speak for Adam, but the stakes have never been higher for me. Beating Adam is the only thing on my mind.”

Martiniz lunged, Ruiz countered and then he slightly moved to the side, avoiding any potential. Defensively, Ruiz was far superior, keeping Martinez off balance through out the majority of rounds.
Ruiz (R) controlled most of the action in the main event
“Чувствам се страхотно,” Ruiz exclaimed. “I took this last minute fight but I was ready for it. Hanzel is a tough fighter. He has guts. I didn’t think he’d to the full 10 кръга. This is an opportunity that will open a lot of doors for me. He knew he was coming to fight and I as ready for him.” In a good technical fight with a lot of give-and-take action from start to finish, неизследванStephon “Showstopper” Млад (15-0-3, 6 Нокаута) победен Тони Лопес, Jr. (11-2, 4 Нокаута) in a battle of gritty southpaws.

“Беше тежка битка,” Young commented. “My coach said, if you wan it, go get him. And I did. I knew what I was coming to get.

Vera Vera decked Zizic twice
“I came out here to put on a show,” Vera said after the fight. “I dropped him (първи) with a left-right. The second knockdown I feinted and hit him with a hard right jab.

I knew I had him.” Las Vegas junior lightweight Randy Moreno cruised to his fifth win without a loss, unloading an unanswered barrage of punches on Фабиански “El Suavecito” Alanez (1-1) до съдия Джей Нади halted the fight in the second round.

VERONA, N.Y.. (Април 15, 2016) – Undefeated bantamweight prospects Николай Потапов и Стефон Young fought to a majority draw in theShoBox: Новото поколение Main Event Петък on SHOWTIME from Turning Stone Resort Casino in Verona, N.Y..
The bout was scored 96-94 Potapov and 95-95 два пъти.
Potapov and Young were facing their toughest opponents in each other. Потапов (14-0-1, 6 Нокаута) controlled the pace early with his jab and was the more active fighter, throwing nearly double the punches that Young threw. Young picked up steam and gained confidence in the middle rounds and was at his best when he pressed the action and let his hands go. But the Russian Potapov, who had gone at least 10 rounds in his last six fights, was clearly more comfortable as the fight progressed.
After slowing in the seventh and eighth, Млад (14-0-3, 6 Нокаута) found another gear in an impressive ninth, winning the penultimate round on all the judges’ scorecards. Но, even after urgent instructions from his corner, Young couldn’t carry the momentum into the 10тата and lost the final round on all three scorecards.
“I am very unhappy with the decision. For every time he hit me, I hit him twice,- каза Потапов, който хвърли 315 jabs compared to just 113 for Young. “I was the much busier fighter. I don’t know what fight the judges were watching. At the very most I lost four rounds.
“I’ve never had a draw before. I feel cheated from a win. I was very happy to be fighting in America but I now feel cheated.”
След борбата, St. Louis native Young was disappointed but knew that he needed to throw more punches.
“I feel like it was a good fight, but I should have got the decision,” Young said. “I hurt him every time I hit him. I let him be busier than me, but as far as the contact, I feel like I landed the more effective punches. That was my strategy.
“I should have come on a bit sooner. That was my plan, but I got a little relaxed in the fight. I came on in the ninth round when my coach told me to get him out of there.
“I most definitely want a rematch. I would like to do that again.”
Once-beaten Louisiana lightweight Mason Менар нокаутиран преди непобеден Eudy Бернардо with a vicious one-punch KO at2:11 от третия кръг. VIDEO: http://s.sho.com/1NtEYjW
Facing his toughest opponent to date, Menard floored (31-1, 23 Нокаута) Bernardo for the first time in his career with a series of rights near the end of the second round. The Dominican Bernardo beat the count and finished the round, but he had no answer for Menard’s power. Less than one minute into third, Menard connected with a huge right, knocking Bernardo (21-1, 15 Нокаута) out before he even hit the canvas.
“I made a statement тази вечер. Not many people knew who I was going into this, but they know me now,” said Menard, who landed nearly 50 процента на Неговата сила снимки. “My speed, power and footwork were the difference.
“I said a prayer for him in the middle of the ring that he goes back to his family healthy.”
Бернардо, who was removed from the ring on a stretcher as a precautionary measure, was taken to nearby Oneida Healthcare where he was awake and responsive.
При откриването схватката на телевизията, undefeated cruiserweightКонстантин Беженару ръце Алексей Зубов the first loss of his career in a convincing eight-round unanimous decision scored 77-74, 78-73 два пъти.
Save for a flash seventh round knockdown, Bejenaru (11-0, 4 Нокаута) controlled the fight from the outset. The Moldova native overcame a four-inch height disadvantage, attacking from different angles and controlling the exchanges on the inside and outside. Zubov (10-1, 6 Нокаута) never got into rhythm and failed to capitalize on his reach advantage against the active and athletic southpaw.
“He was a good classical boxer, but he’s too straight up and he couldn’t adjust,” Bejenaru said. “It wasn’t as easy as it looked to beat him. I adjusted my style to do that because I knew it would make him hesitate. I knew if I just constantly attacked him he wouldn’t know what to do.”
Zubov and Bernardo are now the 146тата и 147тата boxers to suffer their first pro loss on the prospect developmental series.
