2001 Fight of the Year Reunion planned for final stop of 2018 USA vs. Ireland Northeast Tour

Ħalli kumment
Special guests Micky Ward & Steve Smoger
Marzu 21 f'Manchester, NH
COLORADO SPRINGS, Lap. (Marzu 12, 2018) – USA Boxing is hosting a special reunion, featuring two key members of the 2001 Ġlieda tas-Sena, to be part of the final stop on the 2018 USA vs. Irlanda Grigal Boxing Tour, Marzu 21 at the Manchester Downtown Hotel in Manchester, New Hampshire.
Presented by Corona Premium, the Manchester event will start at 7 p.m. EST, and it also serves as a fundraiser for another partner of the show, the Manchester PAL Boxing Club.
Biljetti huma raġonevolment pprezzati għal $20.00 għall-ammissjoni ġenerali, $30 for reserved ringside seats, and available to purchase on Seacoast Ticket Agency’s website,www.seacoastticket.com, the official ticket distributor for the event.
Il 2001 Fight of the Year was held July 13, 2001, at Hampton Beach Casino in Hampton, NH., and it is still considered one of the greatest matches ever broadcast on ESPN. “Irlandiż” Micky Ward won an incredibly entertaining, back-and-forth junior welterweight match-up with “boxing cult” hero Emanuel Augustus, by way of a 10-round unanimous decision that was much closer than the judges’ scoring indicated (98-90, 96-91, 96-94).
The high-profile win positioned Ward for what turned out to be his epic Gatti trilogy, while Augustus went on to become one of the most dangerous, upset-minded opponents in boxing. Ward and the third man in the ring that night, Hall of Fame referee Steve Smoger, will host a USA Alumni Association event It-Tlieta, Baħar. 20 at The Shaskeen Pub & Restaurant (909 Elm St. f'Manchester), jibda 6 p.m. U, and attend the following night’s (Baħar. 21) USA vs. Ireland Northeast Boxing Tour finale in Manchester.
“I’m honored to be invited by USA Boxing to represent all professional officials who spent so much valuable time in the amateurs on their way to their positions in the pros,” Smoger said. “I’m looking forward to being part of everything planned.
“Anytime I spend time with Micky is enjoyable, u 'l barra taċ-ċirku, and we’ve truly formed a bond. I worked six or seven of his fights, including his first in Atlantic City, around the time we were both breaking in. We spend time together every year at the International Boxing Hall of Fame inductions. He’s such a pleasure to be around. He treats people very well. His history in the ring and personality make him a big fan favorite. He’s the same guy he’s always been but he still has the heart of a warrior.”
Bernard Dunne celebrating world title anniversary
Irish Team Performance Director Bernard Dunne will celebrate the ninth anniversary of his WBA super bantamweight title-winning performance, Baħar. 21, 2009, the same date as the USA-Ireland Northeaster Boxing Tour stop in Manchester.

Sharahya-Taina Moreu to make USA Boxing Women’s Elite debut at home in Albuquerque

Ħalli kumment
2018 Western Elite Qualifier and Regional Open Championships
Baħar. 6-10 at Albuquerque Convention Center

COLORADO SPRINGS, Lap. (Marzu 1, 2018) – High school senior Sharahya-Taina Moreu, one of the top youth amateur boxers in the world, will make her USA Boxing in the Women’s Elite Division at home in Albuquerque, Marzu 6-10, fil- 2018 USA Boxing Western Elite Qualifier and Regional Open Championships.

The 18-year-old Moreu, who plans to attend community college next year, huwa 2016 USA Boxing National Champion, in addition to a four-time Native American and 2014 Gene Lewis champion. She was a silver medalist at the 2015 Junior/Youth Open and 2014/2015 Junior Olympic championships.

Boxing, her father/coach, Yoruba Moreu, l-aħħar Johnny Tapia helped her overcome the life-changing tragedy of her mother’s death in an automobile accident, forging a new path for her as a role model and 2020 Olympic hopeful. “I was only eight when my mother died,” Moreu remembered. “I was laying on her when the car-rolled and she was thrown through the back window. I was the first out of the card and on the freeway asking for help.

“I’m a better person because of that accident, għalkemm. Fl-ewwel, I was regretful and angry, getting in fights and on a bad path. I got into boxing, took anger management, and became motivated. I didn’t realize that I’d become a role model until girls started asking me for advice. They do look up to me and some of them I now coach.”
Moreu started boxing at the age of 12 and Tapia, -perijodu ta 'żmien, tliet diviżjoni champion dinja, in addition to the 1983 u 1985 National Golden Ingwanti champion, had a tremendous impact on Sharahya-Taina that will remain in her heart and soul for life.
“We became like family,” Moreu said. “Fl-ewwel, he didn’t like girls boxing, so he worked me real hard. I was a good basketball player and he kept telling me to go play basketball. But he became a big person in my life, I think, because I had lost my mother at such a young age. He helped me in and out of the ring in so many ways. Johnny Tapia was the nicest, most humble man I’ve ever met. We became family until the gym fell apart. He only coached me about eight months, but he taught me that boxing defines you as a person, u 'l barra taċ-ċirku. I feel safe in the ring. I’m a better person because of Johnny and boxing.”

Stil għaqli, Sharahya-Taina preys on her opponents’ mistakes, adjusting in the ring the same as, she says, “Just like in life.” At 5′ 10″, Moreu has a distinct height and reach advantage over most of her middleweight opponents, using those attributes, her speed and stiff jab to relentlessly pile up points.

She strongly believes that, because of Claressa tarki‘ gold-medal performances in the 2012 u 2016 Olimpjadi, the doors are open wider for women in boxing. “I saw an American woman do what Clarissa did and become a dominant force in boxing,” Moreu remarked. “(2016 U.S. Olympian and three-time USA Boxing National Champion)) Mikaela Mayer (3-0, 2 KOs as a pro) has helped a lot, wisq. She signed with a good promoter (Top Rank). Boxing is slowly getting better for woman, maybe not equal to men, but there are more girls boxing today than ever before and that’s a good sign.”

Fighting at home in the Western Qualifier has a special meaning for Moreu. “I thought fighting in Albuquerque would be a lot of pressure,” she admitted, “but there’s not much pressure on me because of all the support I’m receiving. It’s easy here. Albuquerque isn’t like a big city but it’s becoming a fight town.

“I like to travel and meet different people. Is-sena loħra, I represented to United States in India at the Youth Championships, and I saw another part of the world, how people trained and had different life styles. I’m turning 19 Mejju, so this is my first-time boxing in an Elite tournament, and it’s great doing it in my hometown.

Moreu also credits her father for a large amount of her success in the ring and life. “He’s been a single parent, but he’s always been there doing his best for me as a father and coach,” Sharahya-Taina noted. “Most people don’t know that he’s Puerto Rican, my mother a Native American (Pueblo).”

Like most young, elite athletes, Sharahya-Taina has a dream. “2020 in the Olympics,” she concluded. “I want to establish myself as an amateur and eventually go pro and have a good career.”

Baħar. 12 Boston, Baħar. 15 Springfield, Baħar. 21 Manchester, NH

billy Walsh (ċentru) is shown here receiving his Best of 2017 Elite World Championships Award

COLORADO SPRINGS, Lap. (Frar 22, 2018) – USA Boxing head coach Billy Walsh was the head coach of his native country’s amateur program in Ireland for 12 years and, Ironikament, those two squads will compete in three friendly duals next month on the 2018 USA vs. Ireland Northeast Tour.
A 1988 Ireland Olympian, Walsh coached the Irish Team from 2003 biex 2015, and he took over Team USA in 2015, capturing the AIBA’s World Coach of the Year the past two years.
L-Istati Uniti vs. Ireland Northeast Boxing Tour will commence Marzu 12 fil Kumpless Royale Divertiment Boston, followed by match-ups on Marzu 15 fiċ-Ċentru MassMutual fi Springfield, Massa., and Manchester, NH will close out tours onMarzu 21 fil Il Downtown Hotel Manchester. Boxing se jibda fi 7:00 p.m. EST fi tlett ibliet kollha.

Tickets for any of these events may be purchased online at http://go.teamusa.org/2nX3Vjc. Kull belt se nuru sa 12 truf, each to be live-streamed, b'xejn, fuq il-websajt USA Boxing tal (www.usaboxing.org).

“Fl-aħħar tal-ġurnata,” the 54-year-old Walsh admitted, “it is an unusual situation for me. But I’ve been coaching here two years and Team USA is my team now. I didn’t come here for just a few years. When I eventually leave, Team USA will have developed continuity and a solid program.
“I am a true Irishman who developed through a system that won multiple titles and I was the Irish Team captain for five years. I’m helping develop strong relations between USA and Ireland that can help both programs. Ireland has been among the best of the world – amazing considering the geographical size of Ireland — with its fighters’ great hearts along with their technique and skill. There’s a lot of talent and resources in the states, but amateur boxers have been taught to develop skills more for professional boxing. Here there is a variety of different ethnic groups: Mexicans, African-American and Caucasians, wisq. It’s truly a melting pot and each has a unique style of boxing. We are now providing coaching education for US programs to be sustainable long term.”
Boston, tal-kors, is known for being Irish friendly, to say the least. The Mayor of Boston, for example, huwa Marty Walsh. Coach Walsh has only been in Boston once, 10 years ago with his wife for a short holiday.
“I didn’t do or get to see too much,” Walsh added. “but I know that there’s a lot of Irish history in Boston. Boston is a home away from home for the Irish. I have some friends and family there. I even joke that the mayor is my cousin. I understand that there are a lot of Irish in Springfield and Manchester, kif ukoll. I’m looking forward to going to all three cities on this tour.”
Rosters for the USA and Irish teams will soon be announced.
