Unbeaten Mykquan Williams staying in boxing shape as much as possible under pandemic conditions

MANCHESTER, Conn. (Martsa 23, 2020) – Like most professional boxers, unbeaten super lightweight prospect“Marvelous” Mykquan Williams (15-0-1, 7 Kos) is making the most out of a challenging situation, as he prepares for his unknown future in boxing.

The coronavirus has shutdown boxing worldwide. Events are suspended indefinitely, boxers restricted in terms of training, and the immediate future remains tenuous at best.

Unable to train at his gym, Manchester ROCS, which is closed due to a Connecticut state order, the 21-year-old Williams is handling this pandemic in a mature manner that belies his young age. No whining, no ‘poor me’ feelings.

”This is a difficult time for everybody, including those of us in boxing,” East Hartford (CT) resident Williams said. “There’s no boxing on TV, nobody can compete, and everybody is isolated. It’s just unfortunate, but I’d rather be safe than sorry. Health concerns are and should always be the top priority.”

Williams hasn’t been in action since last October 24th, when he fought to a questionable eighth-round majority draw withTre’Sean Wiggins, in which Williams retained his World Boxing Council (Kapila bitika) United States (USNBC) super lightweight title. Most observers felt that Williams deserved a win by decision.

Since the beginning of 2020, Williams had been training for an expected fight in the first third of the year, and he’s still training to stay in shape, albeit it not the same way as if he had a confirmed fight date.

“I’m still doing some training,” Williams explained. “I need to stay in shape for when the call comes after boxing returns. I’m in decent shape and when I get my next fight date, I won’t have to go from zero to get ready. I want to maintain 50 ny 60 percent shape and then finish off training on schedule for my next fight.”

“I know Mykey has still been running,” Williams’ head trainerPaul Cichon added. “We’re going to be back training soon. I believe everything happens for a reason. Mykey and me had a conference call with (mpitantana) Jackie Kallen ary (mampiroborobo) Lou DiBella, and we trust that, as soon as possible, Mykey will be back in action.”

Because Williams doesn’t turn 22 until this April 6, in addition to already being a pro boxer for nearly four years, his young boxing career figures to resume quicker and stronger than for many older boxers. Losing six months shouldn’t hinder a prospect like Williams as much as a veteran who may not have nearly as much comparable quality competitive time left in the ring.

“I’m not sure if age is that big an advantage,” Williams countered. “If some fighters were getting burned out because they were fighting a lot, taking time off, whether it’s due to the virus or not, a break may help them come back better and stronger than when they last fought.”

Williams was a five-time national amateur champion, nanoratra ny 45-13 mpankafy firaketana an-tsoratra, highlighted by three Ringside World titles, in addition to gold medal performances at the National PAL and National Silver Gloves championship.

“I don’t know when boxing will return,” Williams concluded, “but boxing will never die. People will always want to see guys punching each other in the face. Boxing is a sport rich in tradition and, izao dia izao, there is still a lot of talent coming up.”

And Mykquan Williams will be right at the head of that next wave when the boxing ban is finally lifted.

Jon Jones nasaina nandoa lamandy Fa Cocaine Use, Fa UFC Light lanja mavesatra Champ Mbola Toa Fahazoana fitsaboana manokana amin'ny tantara ratsin'ny Cocaine

VAOVAO 1/19/2015 lahatsary fanadihadiana tanteraka:

By: Rich Bergeron

Fa samy hafa firenena ireo mpankafy Arts Martial enthralled ny adihevitra manodidina Jon Jones sy ny nahy fitsapana izay snagged azy amin'ny fanafintohinana cocaine, “The Interview” Tsy mampihomehy ilay starring James Franco sy Seth Rogen.

Ny etsy ambony dia mampiseho Clip snippets vitsy monja ny Fox Sports tanteraka 1 hipetraka-midina fivoriana manodidina ny vokatry ny faha-4 Desambra “avy ny fifaninanana” fitsapana MMA indrindra mpankafy manerana izao tontolo izao no izao rehetra tsara loatra. Ho an'ireo ao amin'ny planeta hafa izay tsy nandre ny vaovao, ny fitsapana dia nanambara Jones dia cocaine metabolites ny tontolo.

Anio alina, Jones dia miseho amin'ny nandrasana hatry ny ela “hanatona an'i Jesosy” fotoana eo anoloan'ny ny fakan-tsary, fa raha tokony Barbara Walters mametraka ny fanontaniana, izany Charissa Thompson. The Jones Interview is slated for an 11PM EST time slot, ela be araka izay rehetra ankizy kely izay miandrandra any amin 'azy any am-pandriana. Manazava bebe kokoa momba izay ho voasarona, zahao hoe izany mialoha maty tamin'ny Fox mialoha.

Tsy mandray tatitra ela taorian'ny fitsapana ny tsara nipoitra ny Scarface vazivazy , sarisary mampihomehy sy parodies hanombohana mivezivezy. Though the situation is far from funny to many folks who are truly disgusted by these developments, it’s really hard not to laugh at some of the stuff voalalotra rehetra manerana ny Twitter about Jones. Kevitra manan-danja kokoa dia dia milaza fa ny UFC Hazavana Tompon-daka sokajy mavesatra lany ihany 24 ora amin'ny Rehab, fa ry namana ao amin'ny Twitter indray mandeha indray nahita fomba vitsivitsy mba manala azy amin'i izany koa fampandrosoana:

Izay nampanantena fampandrosoana ho avy avy amin'ny toe-javatra rehetra dia ny UFC Nankeny farany ka voafetra ny sasany takin'ny sazy amin'ny Jones. Na dia toa andro vitsivitsy tara sy arivo dolara fohy, ny fisondrotana namely ny sary zaza amin'ny $25,000 tsara ka namoaka ity fanambarana manaraka ity:

"Jones nizaha toetra tsara ny cocaine nandritra ny an-of-zava-mahadomelina fifaninanana fitsapana natao ny Nevada Athletic Commission amin'ny Dec. 4, 2014. The $25,000 dia natolotra ho fisorohana ny fidorohana zava-mahadomelina fandaharana.

Ny UFC fanapahan-kevitra izany dia tonga rehefa avy nandinika ny zava-misy manodidina ny olana, ary rehefa avy nahazo ny fandraisana ho mpikambana avy amin'ny Nevada Athletic Commission izay Jones nandalo fitsapana zava-mahadomelina rehetra ilaina ny manaraka ao amin'ny UFC bout 182 amin'ny Jan. 3."

No mahatsiaro fotsiny ny UFC manana fitsipi-pitondran-tena dia mitaky ny fifanarahana rehetra atleta hanaraka? Izany fanontaniana ara-drariny, fa complicating raharaha dia ny hoe ny ara-teknika Commission Athletic Nevada overstepped ny morony amin'ny alalan'ny hanaiky mihitsy aza ny fitsapana Jones noho ny zavatra izay tsy tena voarara amin'ny fifaninanana amin'ny tontolo iainana. The UFC’s legal bigwigs had to take a step back and figure out how to defend whatever punishment Jones would face in light of the test.

Ny fitsipi-pitondran-tena toa toy ny fanitsakitsahana misokatra ka nakatony raharaha ny ankamaroan'ny manam-pahaizana manokana, fa manao ny sazy lafo loatra Azo inoana hanome Jones ny làlana mba iadian-kevitra ny tsara. Rehetra tsy maintsy atao dia antso ny saina ho amin'ny fanatanjahan-tena niresaka momba ny asa nanirahana ny fitsapana ho toy ny “panjakana mpiandraikitra.” Ny fanaovana ny tsara ho toa toy ny fanomezana lehibe ho fiarovana ara-dalàna misy zava-tsarotra amin'ny Jones.

Na izany aza, na inona na inona izay lafiny ianao amin'ity laharana ity ao amin'ny, ny zava-nitranga rehetra smacks ny mahasoa nasehon'ny tavan'olona ny UFC mankany Jones. Mora ny sary an-tsaina ny olona iray izay miady amin'ny savaranonando UFC ny karatra hatao hatsipy avy hatrany avy amin'ny fikambanana raha toa ka tratra tao amin'ny toe-javatra toy izany koa. Na izany aza, Jones no namelaka tehamaina eo amin'ny hato amin'ny tsara sy ara-bakiteny firy nomena fiderana ambony noho ny miatrika ny olana toy ny tompon-daka izy. He even gets to go on national television and explain why he “tsy mandeha tsara.”

Na dia raharaha mahakasika ny ankamaroan'ny mpiady UFC izay naka fanahy tsara ny vilany tao anatin'ny taona vitsivitsy tafiditra amin'izany toe-javatra samy hafa tanteraka amin'ny fifaninanana momba ny fitsapana, Dana White dia tsy tonga avy tany misy ohatra ireo miresaka momba ny tena ireo mpiady fanampiana. Tsy hamaritana ny tafatafa misy na inona na inona ireo mpiady tamin'ny tambajotra lehibe ny UFC manana multi-tapitrisa dolara fandefasana fifanarahana amin'ny.

Jones sasany mpankafy mety hilaza fa ny ankamaroan'ireo sazy henjana dished ho an'ny mpampiasa rongony ireo toe-javatra ny Averimbereno meloka. Marina, izany dia fandikan-dalàna ny Jones voalohany raha ny amin'ny zava-mahadomelina fitiliana. Na izany aza, isika koa tsy afaka ny hoe tsy miraharaha izy nosaronany ny Bentley manodidina ny telefaonina amin'ny tsato-kazo, fitadiavam-bola DUI, an'arivony dolara amin'ny lamandy sy ny sazy (ao anatin'izany ny $7,000 mba hisolo ny tsato-kazo) ary enim-bolana ny fahazoan-dalana mpamily fampiatoana noho ny zavatra nataony ny marainan'ny May 19, 2012. Tsy nisy manam-pahefana avy amin'ny UFC sazy noho ny loza. Izy dia nahazo alalana mba hiaro ny anaram-boninahitra tamin'ny Septambra tamin'io taona io ihany.

Sarotra ny sary an-tsaina na dia ny tsara indrindra amin'ny zavatra hafa atleta fanatanjahan-tena toy izany koa ny fahazoana fitsaboana araka ny mpampiasa. Diniho, ohatra, i Diego Maradona, arguably the best soccer player ever. Dia naato avy amin'ny fanatanjahan-tena ho an'ny 15 volana amin'ny 1991 rehefa tsy mahomby ny fitsapana zava-mahadomelina noho ny cocaine. Back amin'ny 2007, Martina Hingis nizaha toetra tsara fa iray ihany no hita ao amin'ny Jones metabolites, fa raha ny marina dia ny ambaratonga ambany lenta ny azo ekena any Etazonia ny zava-mahadomelina tafika fitiliana fifanarahana. Ny International Tennis Federation mbola nampiato azy nandritra ny roa taona. Ireo no fanatanjahan-tena roa izay nilaza tanjona dia tsy ny hanimba ny mpifanandrina mba handresy. MMA dia biby hafa, ary na dia afaka nampiofana mpiady matetika haratra.

Na izany aza “avy ny fifaninanana” dia tsy ahitana ny ady ofisialy manokana mpanakanto miaramila samy hafa firenena no aloa mba hifaninana amin'ny, fa ny fotoana, rehefa be ny Samy te mety hitranga. Na dia vitsy no miady hevitra cocaine dia mampitombo fampisehoana zava-mahadomelina, misy antony ny andian-teny “hopped maso ny cocaineis so common. Raha Jon Jones dia eo ambany fitarihan'ny zava-mahadomelina nandritra misy fivoriam-piofanana izay nitranga Samy te, Azony natao ny tenany sy / na ny mpiara-miasa amin'ny lehibe Samy te-doza. Not to mention the damage a long-term cocaine habit can do to a person. Manizingizina izy, na dia tsy iray andevozin'ny zava-dratsy, izany iraisana ny hitsaharanao ny olona izay manana olana lehibe zava-mahadomelina.

Matetika, ny olona ao amin'ny toerana toy ny Jones fotsiny dia tsy afaka mitana ny laza sy ny fiheverana izay tonga amin'ny stardom. Izy ireo avy eo mitodika numbing an-tsaina ny zavatra ara-dalàna sy ny tsy ara-dalàna isan-karazany. Mora ny mahatakatra ny antony Jones no manana olana ireo, fa tamin'izany andro izany dia vao mainka ilaina rehetra mba mandà tsy hanome azy toy izany fomba tsotra avy.

Na izany mihoatra lavitra noho ny ankamaroan Joe, izay mifarana ny nanandrana zava-mahadomelina, olona toa Jones Mora hamela ny hisian 'ny tena fahazaran-dratsy, ary manana ny antony rehetra mba hafeniny amin'ny ankapobeny. Izany dia midika hoe ny toetra hamantarana ny fiankinan-doha–mampiasa raha irery–Nety ho voafina amin'ny Jones ho ela ny fotoana.

Zara fa vita fotsiny nanatitra sazy, dia lasa tsy tiany fa tsy misy olana lehibe, ary mamela azy ho any amin'ny firaketana an-tsoratra ny fomba ofisialy izy handa manana olana amin'ny mety ho tena cocaine manimba ny fanarenana. Marina indrindra izany, raha izy tokoa no manana olana lehibe fa ny miezaka mafy mba tsy niaiky.

Ny ampahany ratsy indrindra io tranga rehetra, aza, dia ny hafatra nalefan'ny ny fanambarana fa tsy misy mafy cocaine fitsipika mandrara ny fampiasana amin'ny fifaninanana, fara fahakeliny, hatrany amin'ny Nevada Athletic Commission no resahina. Mino aho fa maro samy hafa firenena na ny mpanao ady totohondry, mpanakanto miaramila fantany fa alohan'ny zava-nitranga io nanao lohateny vaovao. Kanefa ireny dia mitady, ary afaka mamorona ny tena olana lehibe.

Matetika mpiady avy masiaka fiaviana, ary raha tokony perpetuating ny fitondran-tena izay mitondra any am-ponja ihany, dia mitodika any ady mba hanadinoana ny zava-mahadomelina sy ny heloka bevava. Izany zava-nitranga mazava tsara ny mpiady rehetra izay mety ho tsy nety hiditra amin'ny cocaine tany aloha tany fa izy izao afa-maina manao izany amin'ny whim, indray mandeha na indroa, na isaky ny tsy miady. Firy ireo mpiady dia hitsambikina tsara indray izany fiainana taloha raha vao mahazo any an-tsisin'ny hantsana?

Firy ny fiainany mety mety ho ringana, firy modely Hiharihary hoe hosoka, sy ny asa tsara maro no ho tanteraka, satria mpiady izao derailed mahalala tsy misy isalasalana fa afaka manao zava-mahadomelina tsy ara-dalàna isan-karazany raha mbola Tsy hita ao fa kely “mifaninana” varavarankely? Fa tsy ho fantatsika, satria tahaka ny mitsangana tsy afaka mahalala. Tsy izahay tokony mahalala. Toy izany mandrakizay ny loza dia mijanona ho isan'ny miafina, izay toerana sy ny zava-mahadomelina, ary mitombo fanararaotana festers miely patrana kokoa sy mampidi-doza ho an'ny mpampiasa sy ireo manodidina azy.

Na Jones dia andevozin'ny zava-dratsy na tsia tsy mampaninona. Raha ny marina, izy nanao safidy ratsy hoe, maro be afaka manao raha mpiady nataony tao amin'ny toerana iray ihany. Sometimes it just takes one poor decision to start a downward spiral that only ends in tragedy. Bandy mitondra izany amin'ny fomba hafa fotsiny satria afaka mahazo ao amin'ny tranony sy handrava ny tsara indrindra ny antokony dia fomba fahandro ho an'ny loza.

Na dia izany enim-bolana avy amin'ny fanatanjahan-tena fampiatoana, zavatra bebe kokoa tokony ho nataon'ny UFC mba handefa hafa ary zava-dehibe kokoa hafatra. Mila ny UFC ny mpiady mba mahalala izany dia tsy OK, dia tsy ho leferina, ary tsy tokony hiverina intsony ny olona eo amin'ny roster. Ny orinasa dia tsy mila ny mpiady nihevitra fa ny ambony sy ny laza haavon'ny toerana dia mahazo eo amin'ny fanatanjahan-tena dia midika hoe ny fitondran-tena manahiran-tsaina kokoa izy ireo dia afaka ho afa-maina.

Izany hevitra rehetra izany na ara-panatanjahantena stardom hakingan'olombelona ampitoviny amin'ny fitsaboana manokana mihitsy no manome ny NFL aretin'andoha maro isan-taona, ary mametraka olo-malaza maro any am-pasana tany am-boalohany. Mpiady dia tokony hatao amin'ny fenitra avo kokoa, ary ny tsara indrindra handefa hafatra dia izay maneho izany tsara kokoa ny zava-mahadomelina sy ny rehetra tsy olana ny fitondran-tena, raha te hahomby amin'ny ady ho fanatanjahan-tena. Loza sy ny fahadisoana manjo ny tsara indrindra ny olona izay manana ny toetra amam-panahy mafy indrindra, fa kely ireny dia mety ho lasa molehills tandavan-tendrombohitra, rehefa tsy voafehy.

Aho, tena te-hahita ny UFC hanaikitra ny bala ka ento amin'ny fikambanana toy ny World Anti-nanatrika ny Fahafahanao Misafidy mba hanao ny karazana zava-mahadomelina fitiliana kisendrasendra izy ireo indray mandeha nampanantena izy ireo no namela ny mpiady rehetra teo amin'ny roster ny. Izany fitiliana dia tokony ahitana sendra fitsapana ho an'ny zava-mahadomelina tsy ara-dalàna eny an-dalana, ankoatra ny PEDs. Raha ny orinasa tena nikarakara varahina bebe kokoa momba ny mpitolona ara-bola noho ny tsipika ambany, izy ireo te-hahafantatra ny fomba maro ny mpiasa tsy manana olana ary mila “vonjeo.”
