Known for his strong character and integrity outside the ring and his killer instinct inside it, Andre Ward’s skill and talent were apparent early in his outstanding amateur career. He racked up every title in the books, culminant amb una medalla d'or en la divisió de pes semipesado al 2004 Jocs Olímpics d'Atenes. As the only male American boxer to claim Olympic gold since 1996, Ward, es va unir a la talla de Muhammad Ali, Sugar Ray Leonard i Oscar De La Hoya. Es va convertir en professional al desembre 18, 2004, scoring a second round technical knockout victory over Chris Molina at Staples Center in a fight that was televised live on HBO. He has gone on to rack up 26 more victories since then, building an ever-growing legion of fans in the process. Després de convertir-se en el campió del món de Ring Magazine i AMB súper mitjà, rising to the number two spot on the pound-for-pound list and winning the 2011 Boxejador de l'Any (ESPN, Sports Illustrated, Ring Magazine i l'Associació d'Escriptors de Boxa d'Amèrica), es va anunciar que la sala ha signat un acord exclusiu de promoció amb Roc Nation Esports al gener 2015, l'obertura d'un nou capítol en la seva carrera en la boxa pisos. Now the Bay Area product is ready to return to the ring on Juny 20 a l'Oracle Arena davant dels seus fanàtics locals a Oakland, Califòrnia.
Paul “Real Gone Kid” Smith enters his fight against pound-for-pound star Ward coming off of two heroic performances against WBO Super Middleweight World Champion Arthur Abraham. Smith challenged the Armenian-German for his title in Kiel, Germany in September 2014 and put on the performance of his career in his world title first shot. The 32-year-old native of Liverpool was the clear winner of large parts of the fight and celebrated at the bell in front of a hushed partisan crowd that thought that Abraham had been dethroned. Smith was not expecting the wide scorecards that were read out in favor of the hometown fighter and, judging by the far-reaching outrage at the lopsided numbers, neither were the majority of the boxing world and beyond, with Smith receiving support from some of Britain’s biggest sports stars on social media. A rematch was the only possible scenario and, like a true champion, Abraham duly obliged. Smith returned to Germany in February of this year to face Abraham again, this time in Berlin, but Abraham was a different fighter the night of their second fight, successfully defending his belt against a brave challenge from Smith. Once again the judges’ were forced to give a verdict and this time a decision win by Abraham was met with no outcry of controversy. En Juny 20, “Real Gone Kid” will return to the ring and once again venture into hostile territory to take on one of boxing’s best, looking to silence the crowd.

I’m in the gym everyday working extremely hard on everything. Now that I’m ranked in the WBA, I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. My co-promoters Gary Shaw and Lou Savarese have assured me a big fight if I continue to win. I know Gbenga has a lot of power, però sento que els meus cops seran més explosiu i vaig a estar fent foc per al nocaut des la campanada inicial. Estic a punt per llançar bombes!”

Gerent Gary Hyde peticions han AMB Per fer complir lluita pel títol obligatori Entre Rigondeaux i Quigg
| SURO, Irlanda (Març 12, 2015) – Gerent internacional de boxa Gary Hyde, president de Gestió Nowhere2Hyde, ha sol·licitat formalment a l'Associació Mundial de Boxa (AMB) per fer complir una baralla pel títol obligatori entre el caça de Hyde, AMB super & Organització Mundial de Boxa (OMB) campió supergallo Guillermo “El Xacal” Rigondeaux (15-0, 10 KOs), i de l'AMB “regular” 122-lliura divisió campió De Scott Quigg (30-0-2, 22 KOs).
A continuació trobareu una còpia de la carta de Hyde a l'AMB:
Dear Chairman Mendoza:
Escric com el gerent de Guillermo Rigondeaux, el campió de l'AMB / OMB Unificat.
I write to request enforcement of the mandatory. Uniquely in the Super Bantamweight Division Guillermo Rigondeaux is the “Campió Unificat” i Scott Quigg és la “Campió Regular.” Clearly as the Regular Champion Quigg is the highest ranked contender in the division. While he was injured he is now back in training and there is no reason why Mr. Rigondeaux no pot o no ha de complir les seves obligacions obligatòries contra el Sr.. QUIGG.
We are aware that there are some discussions about a bout between Quigg and Frampton. No obstant això, hem estat en contacte amb la Federació Internacional de Boxa i que no anem a sancionar la baralla d'unificació amb qualsevol que no sigui el més alt nivell de campió que en aquest cas és Guillermo Rigondeaux.
Respectuosament suggerim que el millor és tractar la qüestió obligatòria ara i sol·licitar que Quigg i Guillem dirigir-se a iniciar les negociacions.
Respectuosament,
Gary Hyde
Hyde també gestiona l'AMB campió creuer interí Yuri “El Toro” Kalenga(21-1, 14 KOs), l'ex campió de pes mitjà de l'OMB i actual Federació Internacional de Boxa (FIB) No. 1 contendent obligatori Hassan N'Dam N'Jikam (31-1, 18 KOs), i la part superior de pes súper gall perspectiva Marc Forestal (1-0, 1 KO).

“Encara Thurman i jo vam anar a la guerra, el meu cos s'està recuperant bé,” va dir Robert Guerrero. “Tan boig com sona, I’m ready to get back to work and start training. I’m hoping I can get back in the ring by the summer and finish off strong by the end of the year. If I can get two more fights in this year, I’ll be happy. I know the fans are looking forward to my next fight, i estic preparat per portar-los una altra emocionant nit d'acció.”
Bob Sants que co-administra Guerrero va declarar, “Després de veure la lluita, Em vaig adonar de Guerrero estava lliurant una súper mitjà en la nit del combat, which makes his fight with Thurman even more unbelievable. Guerrero who came up from 122 lliura. va anar a la distància amb un campió invicte que va lluitar la major part de la seva carrera en 154 lliura, that’s incredible. The fans got to see a true warrior in Guerrero last Saturday, i s'arriba a veure-ho de nou en un futur pròxim.”
