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

(L-R) – Mykquan Williams & Paul Cichon


HARTFORD (Outubro 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, infelizmente, 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. "Isto é o que eu faço; Eu sou um lutador. 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, esperançosamente, early next year. Agora, 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 weeks, 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.

“Personally,” 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, que pesou em, 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 (no 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 anos depois. A dislocated wrist has no chance of making him less than “Marvelous.”

MADRID, ESPANHA (Abril 8, 2021) – Super lightweight contender, Peter “Zar” Petrov (41-6-2, 22 KOs), is looking to propel himself back into the world title picture as he believes his third chance will be the charm. Primeiro, Petrov must defeat Bergman “Snake” Aguilar (15-6-1, 5 KOs) on Thompson’s 3.2.1. Boxe evento, next Sunday, 18 abril, at the Omega Products Event Center in Corona, TAL COMO. O ataque, scheduled for 8-rounds, will be the opening fight on the three-fight card.

Here is what Petr Petrov had to say about his upcoming fight, training from Madrid, Espanha, a potential future world title shot, e mais.
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. Aguilar is a tough durable guy who has been in the ring with some good fighters, so I know he’s coming to fight.”

On recent training camp:

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

On what a win will do for his career:

“I have been out of the ring for a year-and-a-half, even though I had three fights since my loss to Ivan Baranchyk, but that is the fight people remember. I want people to see my improvement and realize I can be a force at the 140 lbs. division.”

On how far he believes he’s away from a world title shot:

“I think with a couple of wins I’ll be in line for a title eliminator if I put on exciting performances. Com Jose Ramirez e Josh Taylor fighting to unify the division, I think soon some belts will open up. I have to perform and be ready to succeed at each and every step along the way. I’m hoping by the end of 2021 I can be in a big fight with a world champion.”

CITAÇÕES DO CAMPO DE TREINAMENTO DE RICHARDSON HITCHINS & FOTOS

Deixe um comentário
“Eu realmente acredito que sou o melhor lutador em ascensão no jogo”



Super leve e imbatível em ascensão em perspectiva Hitchins Battles ex-campeão Argenis Méndez no evento co-principal ao vivo no SHOWTIME® neste sábado, Dezembro 12

Clique AQUI para fotos das promoções Mayweather

NOVA IORQUE – Dezembro 7, 2020 – Perspectiva de ascensão imbatível Richardson Hitchins compartilhou detalhes de seu acampamento de treinamento, incluindo dicas e motivação que recebeu de Floyd Mayweather e Gervonta Davis, antes de seu confronto superleve contra o ex-campeão mundial Argenis Mendez ao vivo no SHOWTIME neste sábado, Dezembro 12 em 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT em um evento apresentado pelos Premier Boxing Champions da Mohegan Sun Arena em Uncasville, Conn.

“Floyd me ajudou tremendamente enquanto eu estava de volta a Las Vegas,”Disse Hitchins. “Já tenho os fundamentos como lutador, mas ele me mostrou coisinhas aqui e ali e exercícios que eu levo para casa comigo enquanto treino para essa luta. Não tenho vergonha de minha habilidade como lutador, porque eu realmente acredito que sou o melhor lutador em ascensão no jogo, então esse é o tipo de luta de que preciso para mostrar ao mundo quem é Richardson Hitchins.

“Gervonta também foi fundamental em campos de luta anteriores, e ele é o tipo de pessoa que você precisa. Ele te empurra para ir mais difícil. Nós ficamos cara a cara tentando superar um ao outro, e esse é o tipo de competição necessária para ser realmente o melhor. ”

Apesar do treinamento durante a pandemia, Hitchins tem sido capaz de permanecer na tarefa e no caminho certo em seu acampamento, que começou em Las Vegas antes de terminar em seu Brooklyn natal sob a orientação de seu técnico Lenny Wilson.

“A coisa sobre mim é, Eu estou focado, não importa o que aconteça,”Disse Hitchins. “Eu não saio depois das minhas lutas. Eu fico em forma o ano todo; Eu não preciso me preparar em termos de condicionamento ou colocar meu corpo em forma porque este é o meu trabalho. Eu levo meu trabalho muito a sério. A disciplina que Floyd teve ao longo de sua carreira é a mesma que eu. Eu observei meus ídolos e tirei coisas deles para que eu pudesse me colocar em posição de vencer.

“Eu não acho que a pandemia ou os feriados necessariamente alteraram meu treinamento. Eu ainda tenho acesso ao meu ginásio. Não há nada que me impeça de me tornar grande. A pandemia não me desacelera, é apenas mais um obstáculo para testar minha dedicação ao esporte. ”

Hitchins, de 23 anos, representou o Haiti no 2016 Jogos Olímpicos e voltará aos ringues após estrear em 2020 com uma vitória por decisão de 10 rodadas sobre Nicholas DeLomba em fevereiro. Foi a segunda vitória de Hitchins em 10 assaltos por decisão, depois que sua luta anterior o viu como o melhor Kevin Johnson seguindo 10 rodadas em novembro 2019.

“Costumo pensar na minha luta contra Kevin Johnson, ele é um lutador duro e é aquele que posso dizer com segurança que trouxe o melhor de mim,”Disse Hitchins. “Essas são as lutas que me fazem olhar para trás e ver de perto as coisas que preciso trabalhar. Essa luta também me mostrou que ninguém deve ser esquecido, então indo para essa luta contra Mendez, Eu não estou esquecendo dele. "

Méndez apresenta o oponente mais talentoso da jovem carreira de Hitchins. O ex-campeão de 34 anos lutou recentemente com Juan Heraldez e Anthony Peterson para empatar 2019, e obteve vitórias sobre Eddie Ramirez e Ivan Redkach antes disso. Para Hitchins, o currículo forte de seu oponente é algo que ele aprecia como uma medida de medição para seu progresso.

“Ele é um veterano, ele esteve lá com muitos caras durões e ele é um ex-campeão mundial, então ele claramente tem um conjunto de habilidades que acho que preciso enfrentar neste momento da minha carreira,”Disse Hitchins. “Eu preciso dessas grandes lutas. Ele está mais velho agora, mas eu sinto que ele ainda não conseguiu tocar minhas habilidades. É meu trabalho provar que.

“Eu sei que esta não será uma luta fácil, mas estarei preparado para tudo o que ele trouxer. Minha motivação é ser mais do que comum. Vou cumprir meus objetivos quando tudo isso estiver dito e feito, e honestamente, Estou apenas esperando essa luta chegar para mostrar que. Seja Méndez, ou quem quer que seja, a convicção que tenho e como me sinto sobre mim é mais forte do que qualquer coisa que esteja à minha frente naquele ringue. ”

Kendo “Tremendo” Castaneda Training Camp Notes

Deixe um comentário

Fevereiro. 28th in Florida showdown vs. invicto

NABO champion Yomar “The Magic” Alamo

LAS VEGAS (Fevereiro 20, 2020) – Undefeated super lightweightKendo "Tremendo" Castaneda (17-0, 8 KOs) has been in training camp since the beginning of this year in Boxers & Brawlers gym in his San Antonio hometown to prepare for his February 28th fight against North American Boxing Organization (VIZINHO) campeãoYomar “The Magic” Alamo (17-0-1, 12 KOs) airing live on Boxeo Telemundo, a partir de 11:30 p.m. E / 8:30 p.m. PT, from Osceola Heritage Park in Kissimmee, Florida.

Alamo vs. Castaneda is co-promoted by All-Star Boxing, which promotes Alamo and the event, and Castaneda’s promoter, Roy Jones Jr. (RJJ) Boxing Promotions.

“This is the biggest fight of Kendo’s career to date,” CEO & Co-FounderKeith Veltre said. “He is the type fighter who doesn’t back down from anyone and knows what it takes to get the win. Kendo trains hard and we are fully confident that he will come home with the win.”

 
The 26-year-old Castaneda, que está classificado n. 15 pela Organização Mundial de Boxe (WBO),  will take on WBO No. 8-rated Alamo, the defending NABO super lightweight champion, in the 10-round main event.

Castaneda captured the vacant North American Boxing Association (Também) crown a year ago, taking a 10-round decision from previously undefeatedGilbert Venegas, Jr.(10-0), and followed that with an impressive 10-round unanimous decision over Dominican veteranEudy Berbardo (24-3).

Last October in Reno, Nevada, Castaneda stoppedEstado de Martyniouk (20-3) in the sixth round, after which he was installed by the World Boxing Organization as its No. 15 rated super lightweight in the world.

WBO No. 8 ranked Alamo, fighting out of Puerto Rico, is coming off the lone blemish on either fighter’s pro record, a draw withAntonio Moran (24-4-1).

Alamo, 24, is the former World Boxing Council (WBC) Youth World and FECARBOX super lightweight champion, who has made three successful NABO title defenses.

Training Camp Notes

(quotes from Kendo Castaneda)

Training Camp: “Everything here has been good. I’m ready to rock and get back in the ring. I’ll have no trouble making weight for this fight. My sparring partners are local guys, some pros, and other amateurs. I like helping up-and-coming fighters who want to turn pro. They have natural speed at 18, 19 anos, but their strength hasn’t fully developed, yet. They learn and I get good work. My No. 1 sparring partner, Limon, has had more than 100 amateur fights. His style is similar to Alamo’s. He’s tall and lengthy, but not as powerful as Alamo. He throws great jabs and boxes well, which will help me when I fight Alamo.

Yomar Álamo:  “He fights off his back foot a lot. He likes to box and is a good counter-puncher.

He’s undefeated but who knows how he wants to fight?  I like razzle-dazzle and I’ll quickly learn what I’m in for.”

Fighting in Alamo’s backyard: “I’m not concerned about that at all. My first fight with RJJ Boxing was in Las Vegas against a local fighter, Chuy Gutierrez, and I won that fight. I don’t mind fighting in my opponent’s backyard and I’m getting used to it. My last fight was in Reno against a California fighter, who lived a lot closer to Reno than I do in San Antonio. And I fought a local fighter in New Hampshire, when I had a bare-knuckle fight.”

How do you envision this fight going:  “Alamo will go into the fight thinking it’s going to be a boxing match, almost like an exhibition starting the fight. But I’m going to go in strong, like a street fight, banging him around. I’ll catch him with some surprises, throwing hard blows. In the third or fourth round, I’ll start boxing more. Then it’s going to be too much for him, and I’ll take him out in the eighth or ninth round.”

Bout importance: “I think I’ll possibly get a world championship eliminator fight with an impressive victory. I’m a rare, old-fashioned boxer.”

Previsão:  “The referee will be announcing, ‘And the new NABO champion…..’”

Caçador, 27, retorna ao Sam’s Town Live depois de uma impressionante 2019, em que ele venceu uma decisão unânime de 10 rodadas decisivas contra Cameron Krael e marcou uma vitória frustrante sobre o ex-destaque amador Sanjarbek Rakhmanov. Ele vem de uma família de lutadores, ele é o irmão mais novo do contendor peso-pesado Michael Hunter e seu pai era um boxeador respeitado que lutou com Mike Tyson. Hunter passou todo o seu campo de treinamento no Prince Ranch Boxing Gym em Las Vegas, onde treina ao lado do invicto peso meio-médio Blair Cobbs.



Aqui está o que Hunter tinha a dizer sobre seu recente campo de treinamento e a próxima batalha com Hawkins:



Em seu oponente ...



“Esta é a minha hora de brilhar. Hawkins é um bom lutador, Ele é talentoso, mas ele fica no meu caminho. Eu não estou apenas lutando por mim mesmo, mas para minha familia. Se você olhar para o meu recorde, Eu lutei com alguns caras muito duros. Eu sei que estou pronto para a batalha para levar minha carreira para o próximo nível. Hawkins está caindo. Vou fazer com que as pessoas respeitem o nome Hunter mais uma vez



“Não tenho nada de ruim a dizer sobre Malik Hawkins. Ele é um lutador trabalhador. Eu só sinto que estou melhor. Esta é a minha vez, e ninguém pode tirar essa oportunidade de mim. O problema para Hawkins é, Eu treinei mais duro do que nunca para conseguir a vitória. Estou mais focado do que nunca. ”



No campo de treinamento ...



“Eu queria que este acampamento fosse muito específico. Eu tenho um bom sparring na academia de Bones Adams e muitos profissionais importantes passaram por lá, como Shakur Stevenson, Manny Pacquiao, e muitos outros. Eu vi como eles treinaram, e usei a mesma ética de trabalho e princípios para este acampamento com a supervisão de meus treinadores.



Sobre sua condição de competidor ...



“Agora estou classificado 13 pelo WBA, o que me torna um candidato. Eu devo passar Hawkins, então acredite em mim quando digo que vou deixar tudo no ringue. Estou olhando para essa luta como se fosse um título mundial. Perder não é uma opção ”.



Em sua estreia no SHOWTIME ...



“Estou animado para ser a manchete ShoBox: A Nova Geração. É uma plataforma que lança a carreira de lutadores, e a SHOWTIME tem uma equipe de produção fantástica e profissional. Um objetivo desde o início era mostrar meu talento em um grande palco como este, Agora eu estou aqui. Esta é uma grande oportunidade para mim, Eu não vou deixar isso escapar. "

SHOHJAHON ERGASHEV OUTLASTS MYKAL FOX IN UNANIMOUS DECISION WIN IN MAIN EVENT OF SHOBOX: A NOVA GERAÇÃO SEXTA-FEIRA NO SHOWTIME®

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



Catch The Replay segunda-feira, Fevereiro 18 Em 10 p.m. ET / PT no Showtime EXTREME®

MULVANE, Maio. - fevereiro 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: A Nova Geração 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, Uzbequistão, did enough to beat the rangy 6-foot-4 Fox (19-1, 5 KOs) in a matchup of two exciting undefeated prospects. Os escores foram 96-94 e 98-92 duas vezes (Clique AQUI para assistir).



“I didn’t think it was a close fight,Disse 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 por cento de seus golpes de energia (66 para 225) compared to Fox at 27 por cento (41 para 153).



Ergashev said he was disappointed in his performance. “I come to fight,"Ele disse. “I like fighters who stand and fight. Eu sou um lutador. 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,” said 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.



Raposa, 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.



Na luta de a cerimônia de abertura, 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).Clique AQUI to watch a recap.



Fighting for the first time in the States, the WBO No. 4-ranked Ward of West Rainton, Inglaterra, scored a fourth-round knockdown and took the 10-round super bantamweight fight easily against Fort Worth’s Hernandez. Os escores foram 100-89, 99-90 e 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 e última rodada.



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 (CliqueAQUI para assistir). 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. "Sim, he got me with that left, but I recuperated,"Ele disse. “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,"Ward disse. “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, Abril 13 live on SHOWTIME to crown the women’s undisputed 160-pound world champion. The blockbuster unification from Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, N.J. will be the main event of Showtime Boxing: EDIÇÃO ESPECIALViver em 9 p.m. ET/PT and is arguably the most significant women’s boxing event in history (Cliquehttps://s.sho.com/2UVWXtE to watch full interview).



Shields talked about her disdain for Hammer. “I’m going to keep it 100 percent professional," ela disse. “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.”



As lutas de sexta-feira foram promovidas pela Salita Promotions. A transmissão completa será reproduzida na segunda-feira, Fevereiro 18 em 10 p.m. ET / PT no SHOWTIME EXTREME e estará disponível no SHOWTIME ANYTIME® e SHOWTIME on DEMAND®.



Barry Tompkins chamou a ação do ringue com o historiador do boxe Steve Farhood e o ex-campeão mundial Raul Marquez atuando como analistas especialistas. O produtor executivo foi Gordon Hall, com Richard Gaughan produzindo e Rick Phillips dirigindo.

NOVA YORK - Janeiro 16, 2019 – A 10-round clash between undefeated super lightweight prospects will headline ShoBox: A Nova Geração when Uzbekistan’s power-puncher Shohjahon Ergashev takes on Mykal Fox Friday, Fevereiro 15 live on SHOWTIME from Kansas Star Casino in Mulvane, Maio.

The second of two February editions of the prospect developmental series will feature four fighters with a combined record of 71 wins against just one loss. Undefeated super middleweight prospect Ronald Ellis will take on DeAndre Ware headlines a three-fightShoBoxtelecast on February 1.

In the February 15 co-featured fight, 28-anosShoBox veteran Jesse Angel Hernandez returns to face WBO No. 4-ranked Thomas Ward in what will be the toughest test of his career in a 10-round super bantamweight bout.

“Shohjahon Ergashev is one of the hardest punchers in all of boxing. He will be facing a challenge in the undefeated skilled, determined fighter in Mykal Fox. A great fight the winner of which will cement himself as one of the best in the Jr. Welterweight division,” said Dmitriy Salita, President of Salita Promotions. “The co main event is one of the best fights in the super bantamweight division between two proven world title contenders. A real cross roads fight with lots on the line for the winner to emerge as the new dominant name in the talent packed super Bantamweight division.”

The 27-year-old Ergashev (15-0, 14 KOs) is a former member of the Uzbek national team where he won 202 da sua 216 amateur bouts. A decorated amateur, Ergashev owns a win over Uzbekistan’s Shakhram Giyasov, a silver medalist in the welterweight division at the 2016 Rio Olympics.

Ergashev, who started his pro career by registering 11 nocautes consecutivos, made hisShoBox debut in January 2018, handing then-unbeaten and top-10 ranked 140-pound prospect Sonny Fredrickson the only loss of his career with a third-round TKO. The southpaw slugger, who was named one of ESPN’s top prospects of 2018, trains in Detroit under Javan “Sugar” Hill Steward and Rick Phillips at the famed Kronk Gym in Detroit.

“I’m very excited to fight on SHOWTIME again,Disse Ergashev. “Everyone says Mykal Fox is my toughest opponent to date, but that doesn’t concern me. It actually excites me because when I knock him out, just like I knocked out Sonny Fredrickson, all of the champions in my weight class will know I am coming for them soon. It’s going to be Shoh-time in 2019!"

Ao contrário de seu oponente, Raposa, 23, had a rocky amateur journey amassing 40 vitórias e 60 losses—two of his wins came over undefeated top prospect Lamont Roach. Raposa, 6-pé 3 ½-inches from Forestville, Md., admitted that he was not disciplined and fully committed to the sweet science in his teenage years, but once he turned pro in 2014 everything changed and boxing became his way of life. Desde então, he has defeated all of his 19 oponentes, five by way of knockout. Raposa, who is promoted by King Promotions, owns victories over the likes of former world champion DeMarcus “Chop Chop” Corley, Ricardo Garcia and Anthony Mercado.

Fox comes from a family of boxers. He is trained by his father Troy and his older brother and formerShoBox fighter Alantez (24-1-1, 11 KOs) is a 160-pound prospect whose only defeat came by the hands of Demetrius Andrade.

“It’s been a dream of mine to fight onShoBox. It has catapulted the careers of some of my favorite fighters,” said Fox, who is making his debut on the series. “I’m hoping it will catapult my career too.

“My opponent is a good fighter. He has good feet, good speed and great power. This is going to be a fight that can potentially steal the show. I look forward to seeing how our styles matched up.”

Hernandez (12-1, 7 KOs) broke onto the scene in 2017 with back-to-back wins over previously undefeated, top-15 ranked fighters onShoBox– a unanimous decision over Glenn Dezurn and a fifth-round TKO of Vladimir Tikhonov. Hernandez followed up those performances with a split-decision over Ernesto Garza in January 2018. The 28-year-old Hernandez, the youngest of 15 crianças, foi 73-6 as an amateur and took five years off from boxing between 2009 e 2014 to work construction jobs in his hometown of Fort Worth, Texas.

“On February 15, fans can expect to see the best performance from Jesse Hernandez yet,”Disse Hernandez, who will be making his fourth appearance onShoBox. “It’s been a long time coming and I won’t let this opportunity pass me. A win over Thomas Ward will definitely boost my career and hopefully lead to a world title shot. I know I will have all eyes on me on national television, I must impress. I believe the bantamweight division is mine for the taking. So I will go head and take what’s rightfully mine.”

Ward hails from County Durham in North East England, where he compiled an amateur record of 60 vitórias, just four losses. The 24-year-old turned professional in 2012 com a idade de 17 e pela 2017, he had won 20 straight fights and the British super bantamweight title. Atualmente classificado como não. 4 by the WBO, Ward hopes a win in his U.S. debut will set him up for a world title shot.

“This is a really good fight,", Disse Ward. “I’m looking forward to it and a win will put me in place for a world title fight, which is exactly what I want. It’s great to be boxing on SHOWTIME, I can’t wait and I hope for many more opportunities to be fighting on the network in the future.”
