DEADWOOD, S.D. (მარტი 9, 2018) – Undefeated 140-pound contender Regis Prograis scored a sensational second-round knockout over former unified world champion Julius Indongo to capture the Interim WBC Super Lightweight title პარასკევი night on SHOWTIME BOXING: SPECIAL EDITION from Deadwood Mountain Grand in Deadwood, S.D.

 

 

 

 

ერთად გამარჯვება, პროგრამები (21-0, 18 Kos) will now likely face the winner of next week’s Amir Imam (ადგილზეა არარის. 1 WBC) and Jose Ramirez (ადგილზეა არარის. 3 WBC) matchup for the currently vacant WBC world title belt. პროგრამები, ჰიუსტონის გზით New Orleans, was dominant from the opening bell and has now scored knockouts in 14 მისი ბოლო 15 იბრძვის.

 

 

 

 

“I had to put on a show for SHOWTIME, for Deadwood, and for all my fans in Houston and New Orleans and just the whole division,"განაცხადა Prograis. “I had to put on a show for everybody. I am now the man at 140.”

 

 

 

 

In the final seconds of the opening round, Prograis landed a fierce jab that knocked Indongo (22-2, 11 Kos) to the canvas. მეორე ტურში, Prograis continued to attack the much taller Indongo, and floored him for the second time with a huge left hand. With a wobbly Indongo returning to his feet, Prograis continued the onslaught and immediately attacked his prone opponent and knocked him down for a third time in the fight. Referee Ian John-Lewis gave Indongo one more opportunity to remain in the fight, but Prograis ended it once and for all with a third knockdown in the round via a left hook and fourth in the fight at 2:54 of round number two.

 

 

 

 

Following the knockout, SHOWTIME analyst Steve Farhood spoke to the rising star in the wide-open and competitive 140-pound division. Farhood was especially impressed with Prograis, who was making his fifth SHOWTIME appearance.

 

 

 

 

“It was an awesome performance,” said the International Boxing Hall of Famer and noted boxing historian Farhood. “I was surprised he finished Indongo as quickly as he did and as emphatically as he did.

 

 

 

 

 

“I think now boxing fans know that this guy deserves to be rated among the top three or four in the 140-pound division. Because it was a such an emphatic win, all the other fights at 140, whether it’s ხვალ fight between Mikey Garcia and Lipinets, you got to feel like they have to answer to Regis. He deserves it.”

 

 

 

 

The WBC No. 2 ranked fighter at 140 pounds immediately turned his attention to a possible matchup with the winner of next week’s Imam-Ramirez matchup.

 

 

 

 

“I want the real title now, and I don’t think those two dudes will fight me after tonight,"განაცხადა Prograis. “Indongo only had one loss to Terrence Crawford, the pound for pound best, and I stopped him a round before Crawford did. I don’t see anybody trying to fight me right now.”

 

 

 

 

 

In an IBF Junior Welterweight eliminator, ივან Baranchyk (17-0, 11 Kos) thrilled fans at The Deadwood Mountain Grand with his all-action style, შეჩერების Petr Petrov (38-6-2, 18 Kos) at 1:12 of round number eight.

 

 

 

 

Baranchyk, making his sixth appearance on SHOWTIME, was the much stronger, more aggressive fighter than his game but ultimately overmatched opponent, who showed commendable toughness and resiliency to stay in the fight. Baranchyk knocked Petrov to the canvas with the very first punch of the fight, and scored a second knockdown in the second round with a barrage of powerful punches.

 

 

 

 

With a bruised and battered Petrov trapped against the ropes in the eighth round, referee Mark Nelson stopped the fight. ერთად გამარჯვება, Baranchyk moves a step closer to becoming the mandatory challenger for the winner of the SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING main event on Saturday night between 140-pound IBF world titlist Sergey Lipinets and lightweight titleholder Mikey Garcia.

 

 

 

 

Baranchyk, who out-landed Petrov 159-118 in total punches and 94-76 in power punches, was pleased with the improvements he showcased tonight.

 

 

 

 

“I thought I fought a more controlled than in the past and something my new coach has been helping me with,” said Baranchyk, who is currently ranked No. 4 in the IBF 140-pound division. “I knew I had to keep punching to the body, punching to the body. And I did that well tonight.

 

 

 

 

“I was surprised they stopped the fight when they did. I felt like I won every round and controlled the fight. I knew I won the fight. It was a good fight for me.”

 

 

 

 

გახსნის bout გადაცემის, მძიმეწონოსანმა პერსპექტივა Junior Fa (14-0, 8 Kos), of Auckland, ახალი ზელანდია, kept his unbeaten record intact with a majority decision victory over Detroit’s Craig Lewis (14-2-1, 8 Kos). The judges scored the eight-round fight 76-76, 78-74, 79-73.

 

 

 

 

Fa, who twice beat fellow New Zealand native and current WBO heavyweight champion Joseph Parker in the amateurs, was the more active fighter against the 33-year-old former collegiate basketball player Lewis, who took the fight on just two weeks’ notice. Fa started the fight quickly, throwing a fight-high 53 punches in round one and a 24-13 lead in overall connects in the first two rounds. როგორც ბრძოლა გრძელდებოდა, Fa’s pace slowed and Lewis was able to grow into the fight, out-landing Fa 50-45 in rounds five through eight, to close the overall gap to 82-81 in favor of Fa.

 

 

 

 

Fa, who made his SHOWTIME debut in November with a first-round knockout of Freddy Latham, was unhappy with his performance despite the win.

 

 

 

 

“I’m happy I was able to get the decision, but I wasn’t happy with my performance at all,” said Fa. “If I had to give myself a grade, it would be an F. I fought with too much emotion the first few rounds and that threw me off a little bit.

 

 

 

 

“I was pretty surprised with the one judge who saw it even. I saw him getting tired but I was just flat tonight. I can learn a lot from this fight and where I went wrong and what not to do in my next fight.”

 

 

 

 

Lewis felt that taking the fight on short notice played a role in the outcome.

 

 

 

 

“I needed a little more time to train as my conditioning fell off a bit towards the end,” said the former National Golden Gloves gold medalist Lewis. “But overall, I was happy with my performance, I thought it was probably a draw.”

 

 

 

 

არასამთავრობო სატელევიზიო undercard ქმედება, undefeated heavyweight prospect Trey Lippe Morrison (14-0, 14 Kos), the son of former heavyweight world champion Tommy Morrison, შეწყვიტა Oswaldo Ortega (3-8, 1 KO) with a third-round (1:18) technical knockout in his first fight in 15 თვის since suffering a hand injury.

 

 

 

 

დაუმარცხებელი 2016 შეერთებული შტატების ოლიმპიური ჩარლზ კონველი (7-0, 5 Kos) earned a unanimous decision victory over Mexico’s Juan Jesus Rivera (28-20, 18 Kos). The six-round junior middleweight bout was scored 60-53 on all three judges’ scorecards.

 

 

 

 

პარასკევი tripleheader will replay on Saturday, მარტი 10, at 5:30 საათამდე. ET/PT on SHOWTIME EXTREME and will be available on SHOWTIME on DEMAND® და SHOWTIME ნებისმიერ დროს®.

WICHITA, Kansas (მარტი 31, 2017) – Last Saturday night at Kansas Star Arena in nearby Mulvane, 2016 ოლიმპიური ბრინჯაოს მედალოსანი Nico Hernandez planted a seed in hopes of growing Wichita into a fight town, as world champions Terence Crawford და Deontay Wilder have already accomplished in the respective hometowns, Omaha (NE) and Birmingham (AL).
უფრო მეტია, ვიდრე 3,100 fans purchased tickets Hernandez’ successfully professional debut, შეჩერების Pat Gutierrez მეოთხე ტურში. To put that attendance figure in its proper perspective, Wichita has a population of less than 400,000 and in this hoop-crazed state, the appropriately named “KO Night კრივი: History Begins” went head-to-head with the popular Kansas Jayhawks quintet playing on national television in the Elite Eight of the NCAA college basketball championship, as well as The Wichita Force playing at home in indoor football.
The 21-year-old Hernandez is practically a sports franchise in Wichita, second only to the Wichita State University (WSU) men’s basketball team. The city turned out in force at a parade honoring Hernandez upon his return home from the Olympics and WSU awarded him an open-ended four-year college scholarship.
“KO Night კრივი: History Begins” Encore Presentation ამ შაბათს ღამის
The encore presentation of last Saturday’s “KO Night კრივი: History Begins,” featuring the pro debut of 2016 Olympic Bronze medalist Nico Hernandez, ეთერში ამ შაბათს (აპრილი 1), დაწყებული 8:30 საათამდე. და, on CBS Sports Network.
“The show was a huge success and Nico, as a pro fighter, produced a more complete body of work than we had expected,” Hernandez’ პრომოუტერი John Andersen (KO Night კრივი) განაცხადა. “I was very impressed. His amateur background converted to an even better pro style. It really showed his potential and that’s one of the primary reasons we signed him. We really believed in Nico. He is the only fighter we have signed, ახლა; Nico is our stable! We see things from a different angle than big-time promoters. We understood that he’s a hometown hero, so we had him headline at home his pro debut on national television (CBS Sports Network). We produce our shows on television and we enjoy telling stories like Nico’s. We’d like to come right back to Wichita with Nico fighting in June.”
Lifelong Kansas Sean Wheelock, a non-paid member of the Kansas Athletic Commission that oversees boxing, in addition to calling last Saturday’s fights as a member of the KO Night Boxing announcing team on CBS Sports Network, has a unique perspective on the significance of last Saturday evening’s in terms of local boxing history.
“It was huge for Kansas boxing,” Wheelock explained, “the biggest show in this state since the Tommy Morrison Era (early-to-mid 1990’s). Morrison was an adopted son, მიუხედავად იმისა, რომ. Nico was born here and he has a deep investment in the Wichita community. Drawing 3000-plus for his pro debut, in a non-boxing market, was phenomenal and he has the potential to do what Crawford has done in Omaha and Wilder in Birmingham. Boxing has strong roots in Kansas and across the Midwest, but MMA has taken over and lately, most boxing in Kansas has been on hybrid shows with MMA and kickboxing.
“Fans were loudly chanting, ‘Nico’ and ‘316’ (Wichita’s area code) ადრე, during and after his fight. I’ve never heard fans chanting for a city like they did, ‘Wichita’, for an individual athlete. And they were also chanting ‘USA’. As a native Kansas, I’m proud that this state has become more ethnically and culturally diverse with more Hispanics living in Wichita. Nico is engaged in the Hispanic community and he is a fantastic kid, ძალიან. Because of his personality and fighting style, he can draw locally from Wichita, throughout all of Kansas, and nationally among Hispanics and Americans across the country because of his accomplishment in the Olympics.”
Hernandez is also fighting in one of the hottest divisions in boxing — 115-pound junior bantamweight/super flyweight — showcasing name fighters such as Naoya Inoue, Roman Gonzalez, Carlos Blocks, Juan Francisco Estrada and recent addition Srisaket Sor Rungvisai. Conspicuously absent, თუმცა, are top 20 ranked American fighters in this weight class, excluding 36-year-old Brian Viloria, the four-time, two-division (junior flyweight and flyweight) მსოფლიო ჩემპიონი. The opportunity is right there for Hernandez to quickly establish himself as the preeminent American boxer in this weight class.
“There’s no reason for Nico to fight outside of Wichita for a couple of years as he develops,” Andersen noted. “I feel that he can win a regional title next year. Our goal is to have him in a world title fight position within three years. Our goal is to get him 13 to 15 fights and then promote a super fight in Wichita. He started out in a six-round fight. I think he’ll only have a couple more and then move up to eight-round bouts.
“Nico doesn’t waste a lot of punches, so the number of scheduled rounds won’t be a problem for him. Another fighter would have punched himself out in two rounds, fighting at home in front of a crowed like he had supporting him, but Nico showed tremendous poise, settling down and putting his punches together very well. He didn’t chase Gutierrez, he effectively cut off the ring, and his powerful body attack was something he didn’t do as an amateur. We wanted to see how he reacted to resistance and he passed that test with flying colors.”
Andersen noted that his company has promoted several successful shows, noting the big difference is last weekend’s show featured a world-class fighter in Hernandez. “Making the Olympics was a big deal for Nico,” Andersen added, “whether he medaled or not. Nico is to us what Manny Pacquiao is to Top Rank, ‘Canelo’ Alvarez to Golden Boy. We’re lucky to start out with a fighter like Nico. Fighting in Wichita was risk for everybody but it’s already paying dividends.
“We know who and what we are as a promotional company. Nico is our top priority, our only fighter right now, and now we have a great opportunity to build off last weekend’s success. We give Nico all the attention he deserves and he’s going to take advantage of this situation. And we also discovered that there’s some other talented boxers in this market. Whit Hayden did a wonderful job making very competitive fights. That’s his history, he never has blowouts. Whit is one of the most knowledgeable people I know in boxing. He’s the perfect matchmaker to guide Nico’s career, along with Nico’s father (უფროსი მწვრთნელი) Lewis Hernandez, who we work closely with in many ways, in and out of the ring.”

Dulorme on იბრძვის ხალხი Puerto Rico…

“There is no better feeling than to train in my country. It gives me so much confidence and being at home motivates me even more because I get to see the people which I represent with pride and honor. We want to show the world that Puerto Rico will continue to produce more world champions”.

 

Dulorme მუშაობის მისი ახალი ტრენერთა გუნდი…

“I have complete trust in my team’s game plan to defeat Crawford. I like the mix of dynamics between my trainers which combine the new and old school styles of boxing. Pintor არის ძველი სკოლა და Otero მოაქვს ახალი გონება, რათა თამაში. ისინი ორივე ხელს უწყობს რა აღმოჩნდა დიდი მომზადების ბანაკი”.
Dulorme on ტერენს Crawford, როგორც მებრძოლი და matchup…

“Crawford is one of the best fighters in the world. He’s been awarded “Fighter წელი” by many media outlets because he had a tremendous year in 2014. He’s moving up in weight where he’s entering into uncharted territory though. I feel I have the advantage being that I’ve fought at this weight several times. I’m the bigger man and I plan to impose my will on him.”

 

“მე ძალიან კმაყოფილი Dulorme და მისი ახალი ტრენერთა გუნდი,” განაცხადა Gary Shaw. “The fact that he’s training at home in Puerto Rico makes me feel good because I know his countrymen are there supporting his every move. We are only a few weeks away from fight night and I’m confident I’m going to be the promoter of a new world champion. The people of Puerto Rico will have a huge star they can call their own.”
“ეს ოცნება ჩვენთვის უნდა გავერთიანდეთ და დავეხმაროთ მოსამზადებლად Dulorme ყველაზე დიდი ბრძოლა მისი კარიერა.” განაცხადა Dulorme ერთ-ტრენერი Anthony Otero. “პირველივე დღიდან მუშაობდა Dulorme, ვიცოდი, რომ მზადება ბრძოლა იყო განკუთვნილი იქნება დიდი გზა და დაამტკიცა, რომ ასე იყო ამ დღეს”.

“Dulorme არის საუკეთესო მდგომარეობაში,” განაცხადა Felix Pagan pintor, რომელიც მუშაობდა მეტი 60 მსოფლიო ჩემპიონატის bouts ლეგენდარული მებრძოლები, როგორიცაა Wilfredo Gomez, Hector "Macho’ კამაჩო, Edwin "Chapo’ Rosary, Ivan Calderon, პოლ უილიამსი, Carlos Santos, მათ შორის. “ის, თუ როგორ შეასრულა სასწავლო და სპარინგ, მე ვხედავ, რომ მე 18 აპრილი, Puerto Rico ექნება ახალი მსოფლიო ჩემპიონი.”

Richy Miranda, Dulorme მრჩეველი და პრეზიდენტი ADM (მხატვრები მხატვრები მენეჯმენტი) კომპანია გამოეხმაურა, “ჩვენ ძალიან ავირჩიოთ დიდი გამოცდილების და მაღალი ჩადენილი ხარისხის გუნდი. ყოველდღე, სასწავლო ბანაკში, ატმოსფერო ძალიან პოზიტიური და მუშაობის კეთდება აღემატება ყველა მოლოდინს. ეჭვი არ არის, რომ Dulorme დაამარცხებს Crawford და შეუერთდება რიგებში ყველა Puerto Rican ჩემპიონები მის წინაშე.”
