Efterlad en kommentar

Chicago, Illinois (Juni 9, 2018) -WBO number-3 ranked light heavyweight contender Mike Lee Broke his rib in the 1st round, but still claimed the NABO Light Heavyweight title with a 10-round unanimous decision over Jose Hernandez at the Allstate Arena in Rosemont, Illinois.

 

 

 

Lee pressed the action as he looked to land power shots early. Hernandez fought gamely, but Lee was consistent with his right and left hands.

 

 

 

Lee showed incredible heart, as in round one, he suffered a broken rib and had trouble breathing throughout the whole ten round fight.

 

 

 

Hernandez was cut from Lee’s work, and the Notre Dame graduate cruised home with the victory by scores of 97-93 on all judges’ cards.

 

 

 

Med sejren, Lee remains perfect with a record of 21-0, and will now look to face any of the world champions in either the light heavyweight or super middleweight divisions.

 

 

 

“I came out wanting the knockout,” Said Lee. “I give credit to Jose, he was tough. I got a little excited early, and I was a little sloppy. I begyndelsen, I was just throwing power shots, I wasn’t double jabbing and using my athletic ability. Every fight is a learning lesson, and tonight I had to bite down and get the win.”

 

 

 

Med sejren, Lee will now look to challenge any of the champions and big names in and around his weight class.

 

 

 

“Let’s go. I want a shot at the world title. Whether it is at 168 pounds or 175 pounds, I am just waiting on a phone call. We wanted to fight Julio Cesar Chavez, Jr., but I don’t know what happened with that. I just want someone with the belt.”

Lee takes on Jose Hernandez denne fredag night at The Allstate Arena in Chicago and Live on

CBS Sports Network (9 PM ET)

Chicago, Illinois (Juni 4, 2018) -When WBO number-3 ranked light heavyweight contender Mike Lee (20-0, 11 KOS) tager på Jose Hernandez (19-3-1, 9 KOS) this Friday night på The Allstate Arena i Chicago. The card will be broadcast live on CBS Spots Network (9 PM ET) with an all-star announce team of International Boxing Hall of Famer Barry Tompkins and renowned Teddy Atlas.

 

 

 

Tompkins, who has been calling the biggest fights in the world for nearly 40 år, has seen his share of fighters, but not many with the versatility of a fighter who could be speaking to corporate America one day, and competing at a championship level in the ring…. the very next day.

 

 

 

“This fight will be a nice little test for Lee. This is something that he has been striving for a long time, and I will be happy to see him get that chance that he has been wanting. It is a real opportunity for him to show himself as one of the great fighters around,” said Tompkins.

 

 

 

Lee, who is one of a real select few that is able to give motivational speeches to Fortunate-500 companies, is a national spokesperson for major cooperation’s, and be a world class fighter all wrapped up in one.

 

 

 

Lee, who is holds a finance degree from Notre Dame, spends time and money for kids diagnosed with terminal cancer, so he is always fighting for a higher cause

 

 

 

“He is a very sellable guy whether he fights or not, and that’s the thing. He has the opportunity to be a real spokesman, not only for himself but for the sport of boxing in general. He is that in general He can really fill a room and he is excellent at dealing with all walks of life and all generations of people. I haven’t been around too many that can do that. “Sukker” Ray Leonard comes to mind who can do that. Leonard has a very galvanizing personality, and Mike has a lot of that in him. He is very good spokesperson for the sport.”

 

 

 

With a win on Friday night, Lee could be just a fight or two away for fighting for a coveted world championship.

 

 

 

“I know that is something he has looked forward to. I am in favor of him getting an opportunity. His record says that he is worthy of an opportunity.”

FNU Combat Sports Show: Quitters Never Win

Efterlad en kommentar

This broadcast of the FNU Combat Sports Show starts off with one of the most controversial stories of the week. Many sports pundits are quick to ridicule Guillermo Rigondeaux for bowing out of his blockbuster boxing match with Vasyl Lomachenko last Saturday. ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith wasted no time during the broadcast, ripping into the Cuban boxer for refusing to come out for the seventh round of the one-sided fight. Teddy Atlas, exiled from his ringside reporting duties thanks to his outspoken views on boxing corruption and his abrasive treatment of lesser-experienced commentators, came to Rigo’s defense. Atlas argued with Smith from his own home studio, basically explaining that everyone is human. Tom, Tony and Rich all offer their own takes on the situation and their thoughts on the “fight.”

We also track the latest news in combat sports, recap the past week’s events and preview competing UFC and Bellator events this Saturday. We even touch on the multiple story lines involving Floyd Mayweather Jr. that are making the rounds in the sports media this week. “Penge” claims he can make up to a billion dollars if he goes into the UFC for a three or four fight deal. Godt, held og lykke, Floyd. I hear CM Punk wants another fight.

Listen to the two part broadcast below.

Steamrolling Through the Super Middleweight Division in Record Time, ‘Boxing Prodigy’ David Benavidez ‘Determined and Ready’ for Whatever Comes Next

Efterlad en kommentar
He was billed from the first day of his career as a “boxing prodigy,” but not even David “The Red Flag” Benavidez himself could have predicted his meteoric rise through the boxing ranks.
Despite having had just 31 boxing matches in his entire life, amatører og professionelle, 19-year-old Benavidez (16-0, 15 KOS), is already the undefeated WBA #10 super middleweight in the world and a sure lock on 2016 “Prospect of the Year.” The young phenom from Phoenix has been nearly flawless tearing through his ever-escalating level of opponents (his last four had combined records of 62-7), while being labeled a potential superstar by world-famous trainer/commentator Teddy Atlas.
Last Friday night at the 2300 Arena i South Philadelphia, Benavidez wore down and stopped capable veteran Denis Douglin (20-5, 13 KOS) in the tenth and final round of their ESPN-televised main event.
“It feels amazing to be in this position,” said Benavidez, “everything that has happened wasn’t expected, but we worked hard to get to this point and I feel like I just have to keep working hard, stay in the gym and stay determined and dedicated. I want to be ready for any opportunity that comes up.”
Benavidez, who appears ready to reach a dream and smash the record for youngest super middleweight champion in history (Darrin Van Horn was 22), attributes his natural sense of space in the ring as a big reason for his success.
“I feel like it’s a mix between distance and power in the ring. I know how to control it with the jab and there’s power behind my punches, so I’m are able to get dudes out of there.”
“To be honest I didn’t expect this to happen this soon,” said father/trainer Jose Benavidez. “It’s a dream come true for me to have my sons as two of the best in the world.” David’s brother, Jose Jr., is the undefeated former interim WBA junior welterweight champion.
“Today we went to eat and we were talking about how fast things were happening. We just have to be ready for big opportunities to show up. We’ve got to keep working and stay focused. David knows big challenges are coming, so we have to be ready. I tell him ‘you’re only 19 and people are already talking about you. Keep working hard and make your sacrifices now, so they pay off later. David understands that.”
Both Benavidez credit promoter Sampson Lewkowicz for helping make their miraculous run through the division a reality. “He’s done everything he said he would,” said David. “He says I’ll be back in December against another veteran with good experience. Jeg vil være klar.”

Sibirien, Rusland (November 12, 2015)– Efter sin dominerende præstation denne fortidLørdag da han tidligere stoppet ubesejret Jesus Alvarez Rodriguez, tidligere WBO junior weltervægt mester, Ruslan Provodnikov er klar til en enorm 2016 da han rettet mod de bedste kæmpere ved junior weltervægt & weltervægt.
På toppen af ​​sin liste er WBO Welterweight mester, Timothy Bradley.
Provodnikov stoppet Rodriguez i 4 runder i den vigtigste begivenhed på 7th Edition Monte Carlo Boxing Bonanza Night of Champions og er på udkig efter den største fisk til yngel, da han begiver sig ud på det nye år.

Kampen var hans jomfrurejse med ny træner Joel Diaz.

“Det var en god sejr for mig. Jeg følte sikker og mit forsvar allerede følte sig bedre. Jeg ved, at tingene i den næste lejr kommer sammen for mig og Joel uddannelse. Mit mål for næste år er at hævne mine tab Lucas Matthysse, Mauricio Herrera, Timothy Bradley og Chris ALGIERI!”, Said Provodnikov.

Said Diaz, “Det var en kamp for at få ham tilbage efter de hårde kampe. We had a strategy of working on defense and body punches. He did a little more of that then he did in previous fights. It will take a couple of fights to get him to where I want.”
“Efter kampen sagde han at han ønskede at forløse sit tab til Matthysse, Bradley og Herrera. Jeg kan godt lide, at, og der er andre modstandere såsom Danny Garcia. That would be a great fight because they are both heavy hitters.
Men Bradley er øverst på listen som en omkamp af 2013 Kæmp af året og vil være den mest ønskelige kamp for boksning fans.
Bradley, der var uddannet i to årtier under Diaz, vandt også på lørdag da han stoppede Brandon Rios i 9 runder under vejledning af nye træner Teddy Atlas.
“Teddy er en stor motivator, og han bringer en masse energi til hjørnespark.”
En af de mindeværdige øjeblikke fra Lørdagens Bradley – Rios encounter var en livlig Atlas tirade, hvor han sammenligner Bradley til en brandmand.
“Tja, hvis Bradley er en brandmand, det er Ruslan der bringer inferno til kampen. If they rematch it would be a tough fight. After the first fight, alle ved, at Bradley blev vansiret fra kampen. Bradley was damaged and in a rematch, det er, hvad Bradley ville tænke, og han ville ikke være fokuseret. Ruslan would take the initiative and knock him out”
“Ruslan kiggede store. The collaboration between Ruslan and Joel Diaz is going well,” sagde Provodnikov s promotor Artie Pelullo.
“Denne sejr sætter alt op til en stor 2016. He indicated to me that he wants to avenge his losses and also seek the biggest fights. I think he is in prime position to do just that. I expect to have him in a big fight in the first quarter of 2016. “
