Steele spoils Upsher’s comeback bid

פּיטצבורגה, Pennsylvania…. “Right idea, wrong fight”, those were the words of Dallas welterweight, Jonathan Steele who gained his 8th victory as a professional on WFC 87 at Meadows Racetrack and Casino. Steele, who entered the ring אויף שבת מיט 9 fights under his belt squared off against the seasoned veteran, Steven Upsher, 25-5-1(6kos), who was attempting a comeback bid in front of his hometown crowd.

Steele dominated the fight from the opening bell, banging Upsher to the body, which ultimately led to the 31 fight veteran to quit in the 5th round of their scheduled 8 קייַלעכיק באַוט.

We took the fight on a two week notice. My initial fight on May 18th was canceled, and Upsher’s opponent pulled out at the last minute. I didn’t care what his record was, or who he fought. I knew he had never faced a guy like me before.Steele added.

The 27-year old former United States Marine is managed by Dallas based boxing manager, אַדריאַן קלאַרק.

Ennis, who was last seen dropping a 10-round unanimous decision to new WBC Super Middleweight champion Badou Jack, is looking to get back into contention with a big outing over the veteran from Ghana.
“טראַינינג האט שוין גוט. I only know that Gbenga is from Ghana,” said Ennis.
After what Ennis admitted was a lackluster performance against Jack, he needed some time away from the sport in order to get himself back on track.
I took the time off to get my mind together. In that fight I didn’t let my hands go. I was thinking too much and I know I could have beat him. It just wasn’t my night.
Ennis also took the time off to get into some training camps and improve on his own game.
I was in camp with David Lemieux for when he fought Gabriel Rosado. It was during that time I got my head back and now is where I need to be. I need to go out and listen to my dad (Trainer Bozy Ennis). I am in 32 years old now. דאס איז עס. It is either all or nothing.
I just hope everyone comes out and supports as I am looking to put on a show and start the next phase of my career.

I have been training hard and working on opening my new gym with (לייטווייט קאַנטענדער) Rod Salka,” said Upsher.

Upsher is ready to show the fans how far his abilities have grown since he turned pro in Philadelphia in 2003 ווען ער איז געווען נאָר 18 יאר אַלט.
I am happy to be coming back to Philadelphia. I want to show people how far I have come and see the improvement that I have made as a fighter.
Despite losing his three bouts to the likes of former world champions Luis Collazo and Andre Berto as well as then-undefeated prospect Eddie Gomez, Upsher was competitive in all those bouts and grew tremendously from those experiences.
It showed that I can compete against that level of fighter. Plus everyone of those guys was bigger than me. איך בין אַ נאַטירלעך 140 pounder and can make 135 if the right opportunity presented itself.
Chambers went back to his native Pittsburgh to train in neighboring city Coal Center, פּאַ.
My mind is set on winning a world title at 140 פונט. After the three losses, I cant afford any missteps. People see about the losses. I know I have the ability to be a world champion and on מייַ 29 that will start to show.
On the veteran opponent, ראַדריגעז, Upsher said, “I know he is tough and from Mexico. I will look at a little film before the fight and go from there. I really don’t worry about what he will do. He should worry about me. This fight is redemption for me. It’s a start and then I would like to right all of the losses.
