Thomas “Cornflake” LaManna battles Kendal Mena in main event
1ST BOUT —7 PM SHARP
ATLANTIC CITY, NJ (Marzo 16, 2016)–Questo Sabato notte a The Claridge Hotel in Atlantic City,Heavyweight Quian Davis will look to stay undefeated when he takes on Corey Morley as part of an 11-bout card that is promoted by Rising Promotions and Vincent M. Gulfstream Promozioni di Ponte.
Nel main event, Thomas LaManna assume Kendal Mena in a eight round welterweight bout.
Davis of nearby Mays Landing, New Jersey is not the typical fighter who has dreams of winning a world heavyweight title, but he has bigger plans to help mold the youth of the Jersey Shore area as being a role model.
To say Davis is an all-around athlete is an understatement.
The Buena High School all-time leading rusher in football, was a 48th round draft pick of the Florida Marlins and spent three years in their minor league system.
When getting the itch to play football again, Davis bagged baseball and began playing football at Hudson Valley College in upstate New York.
After a few years of figuring out his next move, Davis took up boxing.
A 6'3″e 250 lbs, Davis took up the sweet science at the age of 34.
After eight amateur fights (record of 5-3), Davis turned professional by fighting a four round draw with Willie Harvey on August 15, 2015.
Davis got into the win column with a 26 second knockout over Santario Holdbrooks on 5 dicembre at The Claridge.
“Ora, I am getting by with my natural athletic ability. I do not know all of the ins and outs of boxing, but I have toughness and have been learning on the job,” ha detto Davis.
There has been a lot of improvement since I have started
In Morley, he is facing a durable guy, that has gone the distance in his first two outings.
I just know he is shorter and heavier then me. He is from Philadelphia, so that alone, I know he is a tough guy.
Davis is even more honest when it comes to his ceiling as a fighter.
My goal is to fight as long as the sport wants me. I want to have fights that will build my resume and give me the credibility to become a trainer for all athletes. I would like to instill what I know and my experiences with baseball, football and now boxing and become an all-around trainer and role model. There are people needed in the community that should be mentoring kids coming up and I feel that I can be that guy around here.
I want to thank my supporters. I am humbled that they spend their hard earned money to come see fight, and I am so appreciative of that.

I have fought in Madison Square Garden, Yankee Stadium, The Legendary Blue Horizon and Las Vegas. I have been wanting to fight in Atlantic City for a long time and Saturday it finally happens,” said Rainone.
What makes Rainone’s career even more fascinating is that he works a full-time job overnight working for Hilton Hotels in the accounting the department.
That makes for long days, working until the early morning, getting just a few hours of sleep and then going to the gym before his overnight shift.
I have not had a day off in seven weeks, but I will be ready to go il Sabato notte. I have had pretty good training and sparring. Now I am just maintaining my weight

Since turning professional in 2006, Rainone has been an instant fan favorite, and he feels he owes a lot of support to the many supporters who have stuck by him through his whole career.
Without a fan base, you don’t get fights. I will have 100 or so fans down in Atlantic City. I owe everything to them.

I always put on a good fight, but I am relate able. After the fights, I hang out with everybody. I am humble and I show the fans how much I appreciate him.
Nel suo ultimo incontro, Rainone took one of the step up fights that could have set him up for a major opportunity when he took on former junior middleweight champion Ishe Smith.
Rainone came up just short in that fight, but Rainone wanted to test himself against the former world champion.
That fight was a tall order. Ishe is the bigger man and a former world champion. I am not a junior middleweight. I tried very hard and I knew if I had won that fought, I would have been ranked in the top-ten.
Rainone is only planning to fight another couple of years and he still has the goals of every fighter, but he is taking his career fight by fight.
The goal is one fight at a time. I am excited to fight in Atlantic City. I want to fight at Barclays Center and again in Madison Square Square Garden as well fighting for a title back in Atlantic City.
I have done this the hard way throughout my career. I do not know who has done it the way I have. I have done this on my own without any alliance or any promoter and I am very proud what I have accomplished and I still have more to do.

Las Vegas (Dicembre 18) – Il “forcewas with Cuban star and newly crowned lightweight world champion Rances Barthelemy (24-0, 13 KO) as he won a 12-round unanimous decision over Russian southpaw Denis Shafikov (36-2-1, 19 KO) in the headlining bout of the final Premier Boxing Champions (PBC) su Spike fight card of 2015. The four-fight telecast, which was supported by non-televised fights featuring some of Mayweather Promotions’ astri nascenti, took place at the Pearl at Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas.
Coming off of a luxury world tour, Floyd Mayweather returned stateside and sat ringside as promoter of tonight’s fights. The recently retired five-division world champion, who also learned today he was selected asSports Illustrated Fighter of the Year, was animated and engaged through the final bell of the evening.
L'evento principale, which started off as a close toe-to-toe battle, ended in the Barthelemy’s favor as he swept the latter quarter of the bout. Shafikov controlled the beginning of the fight, staying in the pocket and throwing more powerful punches than Barthelemy as the Cuban had a difficult time adjusting to the significantly shorter, yet stronger, style of Shafikov.
The turning point of the fight occurred when a cut caused by a punch by Barthelemy opened up above Shafikov’s right eye in the eighth round. The blood began to poor furiously and referee Vic Drakulich called the ringside doctor over to inspect the cut. When the fight resumed, Barthelemy attacked the Russian’s eye and never let up for the remainder of the fight. He took advantage of the cut and coupled it with his height and reach advantage which led to a recipe for success as he is now a two-division world champion. The judges saw the bout 119-109 e 116-112 due volte.
There were moments where I was trapped into my style of fighting. It took me a minute to adjust to Shafikov’s style and exchange punches with him,” Detto Barthelemy. “I’m really happy with the number of punches I was able to get off.
I was really impressed with Shafiov’s warrior style. He never gave up even after getting hurt with punches that were affecting his fight. That really caught me by surprise and also that he was able to last the whole fight. The fact that he continued really says something about him as a fighter.
I’m not sure if I won the fight,” Detto Shafikov. “I’m very disappointed and I want a rematch.
The co-main event saw a bizarre ending to what was to be a cruiserweight elimination bout. Detroit southpawIsiah Thomas (15-0, 6 KO) was winning the fight on all three judgesscorecards through round three when Russian power-puncher Murat “Ferro” Gassiev (22-0, 16 KO) threw accidental late blows to Thomashead after the bell. The punches forced referee Jay Nady to make the tough call that the punchesdiminished the valueof Thomasability to continue. As the fight had not yet gone four rounds, unified rules state that the fight does not go to the scorecards, thus ruling it a no contest.
Chris Pearson (16-1 11 KO), a promising super welterweight from Dayton, Ohio put his previously undefeated record on the line against fellow unbeaten Eric Walker (12-0, 6 KO) of Plaquemine, Louisiana in the second televised bout. Walker came out strong, dominating the early rounds against Pearson, another member of the stable of rising stars from Mayweather Promotions. A wobbled Pearson persevered and attempted to turn the tide in an action-packed fifth round with a series of head shots.

The seventh round saw both fighters exchanging a brutal barrage of punches culminating with a fast-paced eighth and final round drawing a standing ovation from the crowd. The underdog Walker, who spent 13 years in Dixon Correctional Institute in Louisiana, scored a unanimous decision victory (79-71, 78-74, 80-72) winning the biggest fight of his life in front of a captivated national TV audience.

If you believe in God and work hard at what you’re doing, you’re going to succeed,” ha detto Walker. “Look at me now.
I had watched his previous fights and knew that my right hand would be too much for him and that I could land it anytime,” continued Walker. “My conditioning was really the difference tonight. I was in great shape and I was able to rely on that when the going got tough.

Pearson was disappointed in the decision and was left wanting a rematch.

“Mi tolgo il cappello davanti a lui,” said Pearson. “His punches were crisp and hard. I just couldn’t get going on anything consistently. I thought it was closer than the judgesscorecards and I definitely want a rematch as soon as possible.

Nel match della serata di apertura, one of boxing’s fast rising stars, Gervonta “L'unico” Davis (14-0, 13 KO) out of Baltimore put his undefeated record on the line against Mexico’s Luis Sanchez (17-5-1, 5 KO) in a lightweight clash.

Davis, a 21-year-old protégé of Mayweather, lived up to his reputation as a budding superstar scoring a hard-fought ninth round knockout victory. Sanchez showed his toughness and resiliency as he forced Davis to fight three rounds longer than any fight of his career.Davis showed his speed and power in the eighth round as he landed an uppercut to knock down his determined opponent. In the ninth round, he threw a massive left hand to finish Sanchez, sending Mayweather to his feet in celebration.

It felt great to fight all of these rounds and get the work in,” ha detto Davis. “He’s a tough fighter and I learned a great deal tonight. It was a very good experience for me.
I just listened to my corner and Floyd, took my time and broke him down. I want to fight again as soon as possible for a world title.
Mayweather, who was very pleased with Davisperformance, sees the young undefeated fighter’s future as bright.
It’s always good to go out there and get the W,” ha detto Mayweather. “E 'giovane. He’s still learning. We’re looking forward to him being a world champion some day.
Mayweather relished in the opportunity to promote one of the final fights of the year in his hometown of Las Vegas saying, “I’m so happy we were able to showcase on national television some of the talented fighters we have at Mayweather Promotions. Vincere o perdere, I am proud of all of them.
More importantly I want to wish everyone Happy Holidays and thank for them supporting me, Mayweather Promotions and The Money Team throughout all of these years. I appreciate it from the bottom of my heart.

Solo 23 anni, l'aggressivo ed emozionante Washington, In corrente continua, nativo farà il suo 2015 debutterà questoVenerdì, Marzo 13 contro i colleghi imbattuto Thomas LaManna (16-0, 7 KO) in caso principale ShoBox: La nuova generazione, vivere ORARIO DELLO SPETTACOLO (10 p.m. E/PT, in ritardo sulla West Coast).

Douglas, che è 1-0-1 in due apparizioni ShoBox, sta cercando di dimostrare che si è guadagnato il soprannome “Azione” quando affronta un avversario che – come lui – non ha mai perso o toccato la tela. Ancora più importante, ha l'obiettivo di continuare a cancellare ogni dubbio sul suo futuro come un concorrente a 160 libbre. Douglas ha vinto due di fila dal pugilato un pareggio maggioranza 10 round molto combattuto con l'ex sfidante titolo mondialeMichel Soro (23-1-1 andare in) ultimo Luglio 25 su ShoBox.

Ecco cosa Douglas aveva da dire mentre si prepara per un breakout 2015:

Come si dice la vostra carriera sta andando?
“La mia carriera sta andando benissimo finora. Sono molto soddisfatto del ritmo della mia carriera. Sono proprio dove vogliamo essere e in posizione per un grande anno.”

Nessuno di voi è stato abbattuto come un professionista. Ti aspetti che per cambiare il Marzo 13?
“Io davvero non mi aspetto niente di andare in una lotta. Voglio solo mettere su un grande spettacolo e mettere su una grande lotta. Dare il mio tutto.”

Hai affrontato l'opposizione più dura come un professionista. Come si fa a rimanere concentrato e non guarda oltre un avversario?
“Questo è lo sport del pugilato e un pugno può cambiare ogni combattimento. Ogni combattente ha la capacità di ferire me quindi non trascurare nessuno. Lamanna è imbattuto. Non ha mai perso, quindi non posso guardare davanti a lui. Tutto può succedere in là.”

Che ne sai di Lamanna e che tipo di lotta si aspetta?
“So che lui è alto e ha una lunga portata. Io davvero non so cosa aspettarmi. So che tende a bloccare per cercare di rimanere in una posizione difensiva. Ho bisogno di approfittare di questo andando all'offensiva.”

Dopo quello che hai superare da giovane, ti consideri un sopravvissuto? Ha fatto la boxe risparmiare?
“Io non mi considero solo un sopravvissuto. Io mi considero un combattente. Ho avuto un sacco di lottare per la mia gioventù. Boxing mi ha aiutato a ottenere attraverso i miei problemi. Esso mi ha fornito istruzioni e disciplina. Intorno all'età di 14 Ho davvero preso il controllo della mia vita e sono diventato un uomo. Mi sentivo come se avessi bisogno di trattare me stesso come un uomo.

“Quando ero in una casa famiglia a 14, i miei due guardiani si separano e io ero in una posizione in cui avevo bisogno di prendere una decisione di scegliere quale percorso a scendere. Non vorrei essere nella posizione sono oggi se non ho fatto la decisione che ho preso. Non c'erano persone intorno a me per puntare nella giusta direzione me, Ero da solo. Se ci sono state persone che erano favorevoli me, Io non me l'aspettavo. Io ero nella posizione che stavo facendo la decisione solo per me stesso.”

Ottenere serio qui – tua madre era dentro e fuori della vostra vita che cresce. Che così fedele alla sua continua dopo tutto quello che hai passato?
“Capisco il fatto che tutti passa attraverso le cose nella loro vita. E 'facile dire loro cosa devono fare. Ci vuole un sacco di mettere il vostro orgoglio da parte per essere rispettosi di ciò che le persone stanno attraversando. Troppe persone si mettono prima sugli altri. Feci un passo indietro e si rese conto che tutto accade per una ragione e guarda come ho girato oggi. Mia madre ed io abbiamo un grande rapporto ora perché ero comprensione della sua situazione e non ho preso nulla ha fatto intenzionalmente o pensare che si era diretto verso di me.”

Cosa hai imparato dal tuo ultimo ShoBox lotta contro Soro)?. Sei si visualizza come positivo o negativo?
“Considero la lotta con Soro come un segnale positivo. In quella lotta sono sceso in peso, il più piccolo sono stato in un po '. Ero a 155 invece del mio solito peso 160. Spargimento i chili davvero avuto un grande impatto sulla lotta e ho capito io sono un peso medio e sento a mio agio a 160.”

Che la lotta Soro è stato chiamato un pareggio maggioranza — era che una delusione per te? Come hai imparato da quella?
“E 'stata una grande delusione per me per ottenere un pareggio, ma ora sappiamo di non andare più piccolo di 160. Questa è la cosa più importante che abbiamo imparato in questa lotta. C'è una cosa come essere troppo disciplinato. Persone notato come magro ero per quella lotta, ma essendo un combattente disciplinato ero determinato a fare il peso. Un sacco di avversari non avrebbe preso quella lotta ma era un'opportunità che volevo approfittare di. Ho pensato che fosse una buona decisione, al momento, ma ho imparato una lezione preziosa.”

Hai bussato dente di un ragazzo nella vostra prima battaglia ShoBox (Jan. 17, 2014, contro Marquis Davis) e tua madre ha rubato la scena nella tua ultima apparizione. Che cosa avete in serbo per gli spettatori su Marzo 13?
“Voglio dire, Sto solo la pianificazione per una grande lotta. È tutto quello che posso garantire. Io non sono uno per superstizioni [Venerdì Il 13 °]. Posso solo garantire che sarà una grande lotta.”

Qual è il tuo più grande forza? State cercando il ko o si ritiene di poter andare 10 giri e ottenere la vittoria in quel modo?
“Credo di poter battere per 10 round, ma che tutto dipende dell'avversario. Alcuni ragazzi sono abbastanza forti che possono andare il pieno 10 round. Vado in e cercare di infliggere il maggior numero di danni dalla campana di apertura.

“La mia più grande forza è la mia volontà e la determinazione. Non c'è mai un momento in cui ho voglia di rinunciare. Anche se mi faccio male sul ring, Io non soccombere alla caccia. Questi sono i pensieri che passano per la testa.”

Jerry Odom è anche su questa scheda e entrambi sono dalla zona DC. Lei ha dichiarato che voi due sono come compagni di stanza. Che cosa significa avere lui sulla carta con te?
“Significa molto per me. Veniamo da umili origini simili e per noi di essere sulla stessa scheda è storica per noi. Entrambi abbiamo portare lo stesso obiettivo comune e abbiamo un sacco che stiamo combattendo per. Essere in grado di fare questo su un palco così grande su Showtime e dimostrare tutti gli oppositori sbagliate significa il mondo per noi. Rende molto più vale la pena e soddisfacente per noi, soprattutto se si sia ottenere la vittoria.”

Il tuo pronostico?
“Prevedo una vittoria. Mi sono allenato e ha lavorato molto duramente per questo e sono pronto a mettere su uno spettacolo.”

Nella co-feature, mancino imbattuto Ismael Barroso (16-0-2, 15 KO), di El Tigre, Venezuela, sarà girato per la sua 13 ° vittoria consecutiva quando affronta Issouf “Vulcano” Kinda (17-2, 7 KO), di Bronx, N.Y., in un pezzo di 10 round per il titolo NABO leggero.
