2021 Highs & Lows for Unbeaten super lightweight “Marvelous” Mykquan Williams

(L-R) – Mykquan Williams & Paul Cichon


HARTFORD (Oktober 27, 2021) – Unbeaten super lightweight prospect “Marvelous” Mykquan Williams (16-0-1, 7 KOs) has been on a long, strange trip in 2021, starting with his career-defining victory to date last January, leider, followed by a car accident resulting in a wrist injury, leading to the entrepreneurial launch of his “Marvelous” merchandise and products, and last Thursday he became a father for the first time.

“It’s been very frustrating,” Williams said about his injury. "Das ist was ich mache; Ich bin ein Kämpfer. At times it has been hard, and I’ve been frustrated the entire time. I’m eager to fight again, but I need to be patient. When the time is right and I’m back 100-percent, I’ll be back in the ring, hoffnungsvoll, early next year. Jetzt, I have to build-up my wrist, strength-wise.”

Williams was in a car accident this past March 5th, in which he suffered a dislocated right wrist, popped into place that evening in the trauma unit. The next morning, Williams underwent surgery to insert four pins, which left him in a splint for 11 Wochen, until the pins were removed May 15th. Therapy and exercises were all he could do, no boxing at all, until he returned to training, and he threw his first punch only three weeks ago.

When a boxer suffers a serious injury to his hands like Williams, it often leaves questions about his or her boxing future. No different for “Marvelous” Mykquan, as he admits.

"Persönlich,” Williams explained, “I worry about coming back close to where I was, but I keep faith and keep working. People have been very supportive. Sometimes I think about not being able to box again, but I try not to think about that, but that is positioned in my mind.”

We’re in no rush,” Williams’ head trainer Paul Cichon noted. “We’re doing exactly what his doctors are saying. I believe he’ll be back stronger, and more focused than ever now that he has a son to consider. I think he’ll be back strong in 2022.

Williams has taken advantage of his downtime to launch his “Marvelous Chili,” as well as a “Marvelous” clothing line and gear, and he’s also looking into purchasing property.

His is life was dramatically altered this past Thursday, when his girlfriend, Zuleyma, delivered his son, Attikus Williams, die wog bei, as a ring announcer would say, a fit and ready 9-pounds.

As he prepares for his comeback, Williams and Cichon will promote an amateur show November 20th at a venue to be determined.
“We’re hosting the show to help kids at our gym, Manchester ROCS (in CT),” the DiBella Entertainment promoted Williams remarked. “We want to do a couple a year.”

The 23-year-old Williams has already overcome the murder of his father when Mykquan was only one, in addition to having his family house burned to the ground 10 Jahre später. A dislocated wrist has no chance of making him less than “Marvelous.”

On his upcoming bout against Aguilar:

This is a chance to show how far I’ve grown as a fighter. I truly believe I’m the best version of myself and having Danny Zamora in my corner for this fight will be a big help. I want to put on a great performance that has people wondering how I would fare against top level guys.

On recent training camp:

I’m wrapping up my final days of training camp in Madrid, Spanien, and I’m feeling very strong. Being home, and refocusing, gave me a new perspective. I arrive to the U.S. an diesem Sonntag, which is plenty of time to acclimated to the time change. I feel more an enthused than ever.

I’m hoping by the end of 2021 I can be in a big fight with a world champion.

RICHARDSON HITCHINS TRAINING CAMP QUOTES & FOTOS

“I truly believe I am the best up and coming fighter in the game”



Unbeaten Rising Super Lightweight Prospect Hitchins Battles Former Champion Argenis Méndez In Co-Main Event Live on SHOWTIME® an diesem Samstag, Dezember 12

Klicken HIER für Fotos von Mayweather Promotions

NEW YORK – Dezember 7, 2020 – Unbeaten rising prospect Richardson Hitchins shared details of his training camp, including pointers and motivation he received from Floyd Mayweather and Gervonta Davis, ahead of his super lightweight showdown against former world champion Argenis Méndez live on SHOWTIME this Saturday, Dezember 12 bei 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT in an event presented by Premier Boxing Champions from Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn.

“Floyd helped me tremendously while I was back in Las Vegas,“Sagte Hitchins. “I already have the fundamentals as a fighter, but he showed me little things here and there and workouts that I have taken back home with me while I train for this fight. I’m not shy about my ability as a fighter, because I truly believe I am the best up and coming fighter in the game, so these are the kind of fights I need in order to show the world who Richardson Hitchins is.

“Gervonta has been instrumental in past fight camps as well, and he’s the type of person you need. He pushes you to go harder. We go head-to-head in trying to outdo each other, and that’s the type of competition that’s needed in order to really be the best.”

Despite training throughout the pandemic, Hitchins has been able to remain on task and on track throughout his camp that began in Las Vegas before ending in his native Brooklyn under the guidance of his head coach Lenny Wilson.

“The thing about me is, I’m focused no matter what,“Sagte Hitchins. “I don’t take ‘off’ after my fights. I stay in shape all year round; I don’t need to get ready in terms of conditioning or getting my body back in shape because this is my job. I take my job very seriously. The discipline Floyd has had throughout his career is the same discipline I have. I have watched my idols and taken things from them so that I can put myself in a position to win.

“I don’t think the pandemic or the holidays necessarily altered my training. I still have access to my gym. There’s nothing that’s going to stand in my way of becoming great. The pandemic doesn’t slow me down, it’s just another roadblock to test my dedication to the sport.”

The 23-year-old Hitchins represented Haiti at the 2016 Olympic Games and will return to the ring after debuting in 2020 with a 10-round decision victory over Nicholas DeLomba in February. It was Hitchins’ second 10-round decision win after his previous fight saw him best Kevin Johnson following 10 rounds in November 2019.

“I often think back to my fight against Kevin Johnson, he’s a tough fighter and he’s the one who I can confidently say brought the best out of me,“Sagte Hitchins. “Those are the fights that make me look back and watch closely the things I need to work on. That fight also showed me that no one should be overlooked, so going into this fight against Mendez, I’m not overlooking him.”

Méndez presents the most accomplished opponent of Hitchins’ young career. The 34-year-old former champion most recently fought Juan Heraldez and Anthony Peterson to draws in 2019, and scored victories over Eddie Ramirez and Ivan Redkach prior to that. For Hitchins, the strong resume of his opponent is something he relishes as a measuring stick for his progress.

“He’s a veteran, he’s been in there with a lot of tough guys and he’s a former world champion, so he clearly has a skill set that I think I need to face at this point in my career,“Sagte Hitchins. “I need those big fights. He’s older now, but I feel like him in his prime still couldn’t touch my skillset. It’s my job to prove that.

“I know this won’t be an easy fight, but I’ll be prepared for whatever he brings. My motivation is to be more than ordinary. I will fulfill my goals when this is all said and done, and honestly, I’m just waiting for this fight to come so I can show that. Whether it’s Méndez, or whoever, the conviction I have and how I feel about myself is stronger than anything standing in front of me in that ring.”

Hinweise zum Trainingslager

(Zitate aus Kendo Castaneda)

Trainingslager: „Hier war alles gut. Ich bin bereit zu rocken und wieder in den Ring zu steigen. Ich werde keine Probleme haben, Gewicht für diesen Kampf zu gewinnen. Meine Sparringspartner sind Einheimische, einige Profis, und andere Amateure. Ich helfe gerne aufstrebenden Kämpfern, die Profi werden wollen. Sie haben natürliche Geschwindigkeit bei 18, 19 Jahre alt, aber ihre Stärke ist noch nicht voll entwickelt, noch. Sie lernen und ich bekomme gute Arbeit. Mein Nein. 1 Sparringspartner, Limon, hat mehr als gehabt 100 Amateurkämpfe. Sein Stil ähnelt dem von Alamo. Er ist groß und lang, aber nicht so mächtig wie Alamo. Er wirft großartige Stöße und Kisten gut, Das wird mir helfen, wenn ich gegen Alamo kämpfe.

Yomar Alamo:  „Er kämpft viel gegen seinen hinteren Fuß. Er boxt gerne und ist ein guter Konter.

Er ist ungeschlagen, aber wer weiß, wie er kämpfen will?  Ich mag es zu blenden und ich werde schnell lernen, worauf ich mich einlasse. "

Kämpfe in Alamos Hinterhof: "Darüber mache ich mir überhaupt keine Sorgen. Mein erster Kampf mit RJJ Boxing war in Las Vegas gegen einen lokalen Kämpfer, Chuy gutierrez, und ich habe diesen Kampf gewonnen. Es macht mir nichts aus, im Hinterhof meines Gegners zu kämpfen, und ich gewöhne mich daran. Mein letzter Kampf war in Reno gegen einen kalifornischen Kämpfer, der viel näher bei Reno lebte als ich in San Antonio. Und ich habe in New Hampshire gegen einen lokalen Kämpfer gekämpft, als ich einen Kampf mit bloßen Fingern hatte. “

Wie stellen Sie sich diesen Kampf vor?:  "Alamo wird in den Kampf gehen und denken, dass es ein Boxkampf wird, fast wie eine Ausstellung, die den Kampf beginnt. Aber ich werde stark werden, wie ein Straßenkampf, ihn herumschlagen. Ich werde ihn mit einigen Überraschungen erwischen, harte Schläge werfen. In der dritten oder vierten Runde, Ich werde mehr boxen. Dann wird es ihm zu viel, und ich werde ihn in der achten oder neunten Runde ausschalten. "

Wichtiger Tipp: "Ich denke, ich werde möglicherweise einen WM-Eliminator-Kampf mit einem beeindruckenden Sieg gewinnen." Ich bin selten, altmodischer Boxer. "

Prognose:  „Der Schiedsrichter wird bekannt geben, "Und der neue NABO-Champion ..."

Jäger, 27, kehrt zum Sam 's Town Live- nach einem beeindruckenden 2019, in which he won a decisive 10-round unanimous decision against Cameron Krael and scored an upset victory over former amateur standout Sanjarbek Rakhmanov. He comes from a family of fighters, he’s the younger brother of heavyweight contender Michael Hunter and his father was a well-respected boxer who sparred with Mike Tyson. Hunter has spent the entirety of his training camp at Prince Ranch Boxing Gym in Las Vegas, where he trains alongside undefeated welterweight Blair Cobbs.



Here is what Hunter had to say about his recent training camp and upcoming battle with Hawkins:



On his opponent…



This is my time to shine. Hawkins is a good fighter, he is talented, but he stands in my way. I am not just fighting for myself, but for my family. Wenn man sich meine Platte aussehen, I’ve fought some very tough guys. I know I’m battle ready to take my career to the next level. Hawkins is going down. I am going to make people respect the Hunter name once again



“I have nothing bad to say about Malik Hawkins. He is a hard-working fighter. I just feel that I am better. Das ist meine Zeit, and no one can take this opportunity away from me. The problem for Hawkins is, I have trained harder than ever to get the win. I am more focused than ever.”



On training camp…



“I wanted this camp to be very specific. I get good sparring at Bones Adams’ gym and a lot of top pros have come through there like Shakur Stevenson, Manny Pacquiao, und viele andere. I have watched how they trained, and I have used that same work ethic and principles for this camp with the supervision of my coaches.”



On his status as a contender…



“I’m now ranked 13 von der WBA, which makes me a contender. I must get past Hawkins, so believe me when I tell you I’m going to leave everything in the ring. I’m looking at this fight like it’s a world title. Losing is not an option.”



On making his SHOWTIME debut…



“I am excited to headline on ShoBox: Die neue Generation. It’s a platform that launches fighters’ careers, and SHOWTIME has a fantastic and professional production crew. One goal from the beginning was to showcase my talent on a big stage like this, now I’m here. This is a very big opportunity for me, I’m not going to let it slip away.”



Hunter is managed by Greg Hannley of Prince Ranch Boxing, advised by former two-time heavyweight world champion Hasim Rahman promoted by Greg Cohen, Founder and CEO of Greg Cohen Promotions.

SHOHJAHON ERGASHEV OUTLASTS MYKAL FOX IN UNANIMOUS DECISION WIN IN MAIN EVENT OF SHOBOX: DIE NEUE GENERATION Freitag ON Showtime


England’s Thomas Ward Wins In U.S. Debut With Impressive Unanimous Decision Over Jesse Hernandez

MULVANE, Mai. - Februar 15, 2019 – Shohjahon Ergashev overcame a five and a half-inch height advantage recording a unanimous decision victory over fellow undefeated prospect Mykal Fox in the 10-round super lightweight main event of ShoBox: Die neue Generation Friday on SHOWTIME from the Kansas Star Casino.



With famed trainer Sugarhill Stewart shouting instructions from his corner, the Detroit-based power-punching Ergashev (16-0, 14 KOs), by way of Fergana, Usbekistan, did enough to beat the rangy 6-foot-4 Fox (19-1, 5 KOs) in a matchup of two exciting undefeated prospects. Die Noten waren 96-94 und 98-92 zweimal (Klicken HIER zu beobachten,).



“I didn’t think it was a close fight,Sagte Ergashev, who was only able to land two jabs the entire fight missing more than a hundred times. “He was awkward and his head was very low. He was very long and tall too, so it was hard to hit him in the head. I expected him to run all fight and he did.”



Ergashev did connect on 29 Prozent seiner Macht Schläge (66 für 225) compared to Fox at 27 Prozent (41 für 153).



Ergashev said he was disappointed in his performance. “I come to fight,"Er sagte. “I like fighters who stand and fight. Ich bin ein Kämpfer. I like guys who let me showcase my skills and bang. Fox wasn’t even boxing. He was just running around the ring. I wanted to sit down and fight.”



The 23-year-old Fox of Forest Hill, Md., one of the tallest fighters in the 140-pound division, said he agreed with one of the judges’ cards, but not the two 98-92s. “I knew it was close, and thought maybe I did enough to win,", Sagte Fox, who did a nice job slowing the pace of the fight. “I think it was closer than 98-92. I took a few shots, but I knew he was going to be strong.”



Fox became the 186th fighter to lose their undefeated record on the prospect developmental series.



Fuchs, who had his father Troy and brother and fellow professional boxer middleweight Alantez in his corner, became the ninth fighter in ShoBox history to have a brother who also fought on ShoBox joining brother duos like Jermall and Jermell Charlo, Andre and Anthony Dirrell and Glenn and Nonito Donaire.



In der Eröffnungsrede Kampf der Sendung, England’s Thomas Ward (26-0, 4 KOs) put on an impressive performance and showed U.S. fight fans he will be a force to be reckoned with in the wide-open 122-pound weight class as he won a unanimous decision against ShoBox veteran Jesse Hernandez (11-2, 7 KOs).Klicken HIER to watch a recap.



Fighting for the first time in the States, the WBO No. 4-ranked Ward of West Rainton, England, scored a fourth-round knockdown and took the 10-round super bantamweight fight easily against Fort Worth’s Hernandez. Die Noten waren 100-89, 99-90 und 98-90.



“I came to America and fought a home fighter and won quite comfortably, I even got a knockdown,” the 24-year-old Ward said. “He was supposed to be the puncher and I was supposed to be the boxer. A lot of people think I can’t punch, then they get over-confident and get clipped. Then they realize I can punch. Look at his face compared to mine. That will tell you something.”



Ward started strong, and seemed to get better as the fight went on. “He’s been on the gas from the opening bell, and he hasn’t gotten off it,” said International Boxing Hall of Famer and ShoBox play-by-play commentator Barry Tompkins in the final minutes of the 10th und letzten Runde.



Ward exceeded double-digit connects in every round and topped 30 in five of the final six rounds while Hernandez reached double digits just three times.



It was a clean left hook that sent Hernandez to the canvas in the final seconds of the fourth round (KlickenHIER zu beobachten,). Ward controlled the middle of the fight and landed consistent three-punch combinations against Hernandez, who at the end of round six was warned by referee Bill Clancy that he was taking a lot of punishment and had to show him something or he would stop the fight. At the top of the ninth, the referee still concerned about Hernandez lack of action, called the doctor and asked once again the same question. The doctor cleared Hernandez to continue.



Hernandez said he felt Ward’s power, and was impressed. "Ja,, he got me with that left, but I recuperated,"Er sagte. “But all the credit to him. A knockdown is a knockdown.”



Ward said Hernandez asked for the fight, but wasn’t prepared for the it. “I knew he was a good, experienced fighter,", Sagte Ward. “He’s fought some good guys and knocked out some good guys. He’s supposed to be a puncher, but I was just on another level tonight.



“I wanted a good fight to showcase my skills and I’m glad the people on ShoBox got to see it.”



Farhood interviewed undefeated middleweight world champion Claressa Shields before the main event. Shields and fellow undefeated champion Christina Hammer will meet on Saturday, April 13 live auf SHOWTIME, um den unangefochtenen 160-Pfund-Weltmeister der Frauen zu krönen. Die Blockbuster-Vereinigung von Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, N.J. wird das Hauptereignis von . sein Showtime Boxing: SONDERAUSGABELeben zu 9 p.m. ET/PT und ist wohl das bedeutendste Boxereignis für Frauen in der Geschichte (Klickenhttps://s.sho.com/2UVWXtE to watch full interview).



Shields talked about her disdain for Hammer. “I’m going to keep it 100 percent professional,” she said. “I don’t like her as a person but that doesn’t matter. I want to beat her well. She’s just mad because I’m meaner that her and I’m better than her. I’m the GLOAT. Greatest lady of all time. I’m fighting every person that they say I can’t beat. I’m going to unify my division. I’m going to be the undisputed champion and nobody is going to be able to say otherwise.”



Friday’s fights were promoted by Salita Promotions. Die vollständige Sendung wird Wiedergabe am Montag, Februar 18 bei 10 p.m. ET / PT auf EXTREME Showtime und wird auf Showtime ANYTIME zur Verfügung® und Showtime-on-Demand®.
