A sold-out fundraiser to benefit the USA Boxing Alumni Association was held at Fred & Steve’s Steakhouse on Friday evening, honoring Paz and Ward, in addition to Hall of Fame referee Սթիվ Սմոգեր, who officiated numerous fights for both fighters.

Paz and Ward held a meet-and-greet Saturday night, prior to a CES Boxing event, as the popular boxers signed autographs and posed for pictures. They were brought into the ring, along with Smoger, and received a standing applause from the large crowd in attendance.

The entire two-day experience at Twin River Casino was packed with memories that we will all hold onto for years to come.

Hall of Fame referee Steve Smoger successfully transitioned from amateur to pro boxing

 

 

COLORADO SPRINGS, Լափ. (Հունիս 13, 2018) — Փառքի սրահի մրցավար Steve “Double SSmoger, arguably the most recognizable and respected official in boxing history, holds the unique distinction of officiating in more states and countries than any of his peers.

 

 

 

Smoger ranks among the top six all-time, Do Not. 2 Ամերիկյան, in terms of most pro boxing matches officiated (1015), including an incredible 220 world time matches. He has been a referee in some of the greatest boxing matches everVernon Forrest-Shane Mosley, Bernard Forrest-Felix Trinidad, Kelly Pavlik-Jermain Taylor, Roy Jones, Jr.-Hopkins, Micky Ward-Emanuel Burton, Andre Ward-Carl Froch and Miguel Cotto-Antonio Margarito II among the most notable.

 

 

 

Նույնպես, Smoger has refereed matches featuring a Who’s Who of Boxing: Մայք Թայսոնը, Lennox Lewis, Larry Holmes, Evander Holyfield. Roberto Duran, Hector Camacho Sr., James Toney, Mike McCallum, Vinny Paz, Floyd Mayweather Jr., Arturo Gatti, Felix Trinidad, Diego Corrales, Գենադի Գոլովկինը, Lucia Rijker, Christy Martin and so many others..

 

 

 

In addition to the International Boxing Hall of Fame, Smoger has also been inducted into four other Hall of Fames in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Philadelphia and Atlantic City.

 

 

 

As a youngster, Smoger got hooked on boxing, primarily because his father was anawesome fan”, who religiously watched the popular Friday night boxing series, Gillette Cavalcade of Sports, with his son. Steve’s father told him that boxing was the last version of will and skill, one-on-one, to determine the better man that night.

 

 

 

Smoger said he was too small to play football, too short for basketball, so he became a cross-country runner in high school. A friend invited Smoger to the local YMCA in New Jersey to get checkout its boxing program. Only one day working with a pro boxer was enough for Steve to realize that being a boxer wasn’t for him. But he still loved boxing.

 

 

 

After he started refereeing amateur matches in southern New Jersey and Delaware, Smoger got the break of his life that dramatically changed his life. “Everything in life is timing,” Smoger explained. “The gentleman who gave George Foreman the small American that he proudly waved after winning a gold medal at the 1968 Olympics, Pat Duffy, opened a gym in southern Jersey. I told him that I wanted to train as a referee. I trained under the great Frank Cappuccino and then had to honor to train with Zach Clayton. He trained to music so referees moved without being herky-jerky. Մեջ 1978, I started officiating then-AAU boxing and worked out of the Atlantic City PAL gym, which remains a vibrant amateur boxing club. I’m still there 40 տարի անց, serving on its Board of Directors, and I’m also its legal counsel.

 

 

 

“Ապա, the boxing gods shined on me. Casinos were coming to Atlantic City in 1978 and boxing was involved at all the casinos there. I was the district attorney in Atlantic City, so after work I went to the PAL gym to workout with the kids. Մի օր, the phone rang in the gym. Nobody else was there, so I answered. It was the New Jersey Boxing Commissioner, ‘JerseyJoe Walcott, who asked me who was in charge. I said that, այդ ժամանակ, I was in charge. He said there was a pro show that night and they were short of inspectors. He said that they need somebody to watch the hand wrapping. I told him I was well versed in hand wrapping and that was it, I was hired to work that show and they gave me the royal treatment.

 

 

 

Walcott’s chief second was Chief Roy Johnson, who Walcott brought into the state commission. He hired me in 1982 as a probationary referee. Երկու տարի անց, I was a licensed referee and, ինչպես ասում են,, the rest is history.

 

 

 

Այսօր, Smoger is still a very active referee, traveling around the world to officiate, as well as co-chairman of the International Boxing Association (IBA) պաշտոնատար անձինք, and a valued USA Boxing Alumni Association advisor. Steve has made several appearances at Alumni Association gatherings across the country.

 

 

 

I am honored to be the ‘unofficialrepresentative of all officials who’ve made the transition from amateur to pro boxing,” Smoger commented. “I’m the only active referee (Alumni Association advisor) who made the transition from the amateur to the pro level.

 

 

 

The accent has always been No. 1, on boxers, եւ ոչ. 2, մարզիչները. USA Boxing is the best group I’ve ever been associated with and, for me personally, I’ve seen what amateur boxing does for kids in this country. They learn under difficult circumstances, through boxing, to successfully reach different levels in life. I enjoy watching the development of youths who go through the USA Boxing program and do very well.

 

 

 

Boxing enables boxers. My accent is on youths, to watch them grow and develop, not turn pro, to better their lives.

Nico Hernandez captures IBA flyweight World title in 5th professional fight Calls out fellow Olympic bronze medalist “Իռլանդական” Paddy Barnes

MULVANE, Մայիս. (Մայիս 21, 2018)History was made this past Saturday night on theSUPERBOX LIVE: High Stakespay-per-view card, երբ 2016 Olympic bronze medalist and local hero, Nico Hernandez, knocked out Hungarian challenger Szilveszter “Լուռ մարդասպան” Kanalas in the opening round to capture the vacant International Boxing Association (IBA) Flyweight World Championship in only his fifth professional fight, ժամը Kansas Star արենայում Mulvane, Kansas.

 

 

 

In the first world title fight ever held in Kansas, Hernandez (5-0, 4 Նոկաուտով) overwhelmed Kanalas (14-7, 9 Նոկաուտով), the former World Boxing Federation (WBF) super flyweight world champion, to become the youngest (22) IBA world champion ever, as well as setting the record for the fewest pro fights needied to become IBA world titlist.

 

SUPERBOX LIVE: High Stakes was launched as Super Channel’s new live boxing series,SUPERBOX LIVE, հետ KO Night Boxing LLC, and it aired live exclusively in Canada on Super Channel.

 

 

 

Integrated Sports Media distributedSUPERBOX LIVE: High Stakes” ԱՄՆ-ում մալուխի միջոցով, satellite and digital pay-per-view as it was live-streamed worldwide on FITE.TV app and website (բացառությամբ Կանադայի).

 

 

 

Hernandez was aggressive from the opening bell, pounding Kanalashead and body. A Hernandez left hook to the body really hurt Kanalas, who went down from a right that followed the vicious liver shot. Kanalas beat Hall of Fame Սթիվ Սմոգեր‘s count, and it was only a matter of time before Hernandez would end the fight. It came soon, right after another body-and-head combination put the over-matched Hungarian on the mat for the second and final time.

 

 

 

A lot of people underestimate my power,” Hernandez said after the fight. “I believe that once he felt my power, I don’t think he wanted it anymore. I felt like I took his heart away. I was patient, I wanted it to go a few rounds to see what he had, but I took his heart away. I can’t really be disappointed because I am a world champion now.

 

 

 

Nico was explosive Saturday night and he showed killer instinct,” խթանողին John Andersen մեկնաբանեց. “He was going to box, but I think he smelled fear, and Nico got into Kanalashead. He sensed it and jumped on him.

 

 

 

Before he left the ring, Hernandez took the microphone in the center of the ring and called out three-time Olympian and two-time Olympic bronze medalist, “Իռլանդական” Paddy Barnes (5-0, 1 KO), who was the favored to win a gold medal in the flyweight division at the 2016 Olympics. He was eliminated in the round of 16 and Hernandez took home the bronze medal. “There’s a bronze medalist from (Northern) Իռլանդիա, Paddy Barnes, and that’s who I’d really love to fight.

 

 

 

I think that’s a fight we should start a conversation about,” Andersen remarked. “It’s not line Barnes is 21 (նա 31) and I don’t know of a lot of 30 or older flyweights. It makes a lot of sense and can be a big fight. They’re both Olympic bronze medalist, already fought in scheduled 10 իսկ 12 կլոր մարտեր, and have belts. (Barnes is the WBO Intercontinental flyweight champ). Nico needs to step up in terms of competition, էլ. I think they should get in the ring and then we can see what happens.

 

 

 

If they don’t want to make this fight right away, maybe we can build it up by putting them on the same card, and then fight next year. This fight makes a lot of sense for both fighters and Nico has already said he wants to fight Barnes.

 

 

 

Hernandez joined reigning IBA world champions, թեթեւ քաշային Սերգեյ Կովալեւի and junior middleweight Mark DeLuca, as well as past IBA world champions such as Hall of Famers Օսկար դե լա Հոյան, George վարպետ, Roberto Duran իսկ Arturo Gatti, in addition to starsRoy Jones, Jr., Bernard Hopkins, Shane Mosely, James Toney, Mikkel Kessler, Eric Morales, Diego Corrales, Jose Luis Castillo, Գլեն Ջոնսոն իսկ Antonio Tarver.

 

 

 

2011 Russia Junior Championships gold medalist Andrey Afonin (6-0, 3 Նոկաուտով) kept his undefeated record in tact when PedroEl Reguilete” Rodriguez (23-4, 19 Նոկաուտով), the Cuban native and former World Boxing Association (WBA) Fedalatin cruiserweight champion, was unable to answer the bell in the third round of the co-featured event.

 

 

 

Unbeaten Ukrainian heavyweight Օլեքսանդր Teslenko (13-0, 11 Նոկաուտով), promoted by DiBella Entertainment and fighting out of Toronto, դադարեցվել է TerranceBig JimMarbra (9-6, 7 Նոկաուտով) ի երկրորդ տուրում.

 

 

 

Undefeated Washington featherweight Victor Morales, Jr. (9-0, 5 Նոկաուտով) was too much forDavid Berna (15-4, 14 Նոկաուտով), of Hungary, who complained of an elbow injury and lost by way of a second-round technical knockout, in the televised opener.

 

 

 

In the television swing bout, which was held prior to the main event, popular Wichita junior welterweight Jeff Strum (3-0, 2 Նոկաուտով) kept the train rollinwith a second-round knockout of Nigeria-native Archie Weah (2-11).

 

 

 

In the most competitive fight of the night, as well as the lone match that went the complete distance, St. Louis cruiserweight Leroy Jones (3-3, 2 Նոկաուտով) won a four-round unanimous decision over Kansas City, KS favorite Chris Harris (2-3-2, 2 Նոկաուտով).

My fiancé is from Jamaica and I first went there looking to promote shows there,” ասել է Tyler Buxton (United Boxing Promotions), who has served as consultant to the television producer, in addition to being the promoter/manager for Team Canada. “I spoke to the Jamaica boxing commissioner and he told me about past Contender shows.

They flew in on a Ուրբաթ, կռվել Չորեքշաբթի օրը, and flew back to Canada the following day. They stayed in a mansion, where there was a beautiful in-ground pool, and the fighters had their own cooks. They had to adjust to the heat having been used to fighting and training in Canada. Բայց, հե՜յ, they had no problems losing weight. Everybody here has been super nice. The Jamaican media wasn’t nice to us at the beginning, claiming we weren’t good enough to compete with Jamaican fighters, but we won the first round, 5-3, and then got some respect. Our fighters even have some Jamaican fans now.
