Undefeated WBA #14-rated Dinu (18-0, 14 КО) is a powerful boxer/puncher with enormous potential. Standing six-foot five and weighing in at 250 фунтів, Dinu has the size and strong amateur pedigree to compete with any big man in the world.

 

 

 

 

The only career losses for all-action featherweight Simion (21-2, 9 КО) came against world champions Scott Quigg and Lee Selby in their backyards and both fights could have gone either way. A world-class talent with amade for TV” стиль, Simion never stops throwing punches.

 

 

 

 

Мета, says Greg Cohen, is to relocate both to Las Vegas and begin the next phase of their career journeys by training under the tutelage of highly respected former world champion Eddie Mustafa Muhammad.

 

 

 

 

Bodgan Dinu is the real deal and is ready to take on the top talent in the world. He has the size, power and boxing skill to win the heavyweight title now,” сказав Коен. “And Simion just needs the promotional backing to become champion. Both fighters are very welcome additions to my promotional stable.

 

 

 

 

The signing of both fighters comes as a result of a chance meeting with Romanian business magnate, and both fighters’ менеджер, Sorin Florea.

 

 

 

 

Sorin and I met in Bucharest two months ago,” продовжував Коен, “and we instantly hit it off. He is the most committed, knowledgeable, and passionate manager in the sport. We both agree that in order for Bogdan and Viorel to realize their maximum potential/exposure, they need to relocate to the US. I am happy to make that happen for them.

IBF World Title Challenger Emmanuel Rodriguez sends message to WBA Champion Ryan Burnett

 

In Cardiff, Уельс, WBA bantamweight world champion, Райан Бернетт ( 19-0, 9 КО ) successfully defended his belt against Venezuelan, Yonfrez Parejo ( 21-3-1, 10 КО ) одноголосним рішенням суддів.

 

 

 

 

Попередньо, Burnett was the WBA and IBF world champion, but he vacated the IBF because he decided to face WBA ranked Parejo, instead of facing the hightly touted Puerto Rican boxer, Еммануель 'Менні’ Родрігес ( 17-0, 12 КО ), who is IBF top ranked.

 

 

 

 

Now Rodriguez is facing Paul Butler from England for the vacant IBF world title on a date to be announced. Purse bid schedule on April, 3 at the IBF headquarters in New Jersey.

 

 

 

 

Congratulations Ryan Burnett on your victory. You’re lucky for not fighting me for the IBF world title but I guess you’re smart by leaving the title vacant. We know you left the title because you know deep in your heart, that the title belongs to me. I’m always willing to fight you in your house, in front of your people, but I understand that your heart of a champion is having some issuessaid a confident Rodriguez.

 

 

 

 

Burnett saw how I won gold medal at the Singapore Youth Olympic Games in 2010. In that tournament, Burnett also won gold in another category, but I won the ‘Best Fighter Award’”.

 

 

 

 

Now my mind is 100% on Paul Butler who was a former world champion and is a veteran, but after that fight, and if Burnett has some honor left, we can unify belts in front of his people. Burnett has a big fan base that I admire a lot, and they deserve to see the best fighters facing each other”, сказав Родрігес.

— продовжував Кінг: «У мене був один дзвінок з Робертом Діасом, і він мені не передзвонив. Ми йому постійно телефонували. Ми повинні були піти разом, щоб зустрітися з Пітером Нельсоном, і вони сказали, що ми матимемо 50-50 справа, і я ніколи не чув від нього. Менса три роки чекав можливості отримати титул.

«Мій боєць був налаштований на бій січня. 27, про що ми домовилися. Але я ніколи ні від кого не отримував відповіді. Вони грають в аферистську гру, намагаючись уникнути цієї бійки з Менсою. Вони намагаються підкоритися правилам і не битися з моїм майбутнім чемпіоном. Розробка бою Мачадо-Менса стала заплутаною та повною інтриг та махінацій. Вся ця справа була загадковою. Ми готові воювати!"

Jessica McCaskill Gets Her Wish to Face Katie Taylor: Social Media Challenges Turn to Women’s Super Fight on December 13 у Лондоні

Christmas comes a little early this year for hard-punching Warriors Boxing lightweight Jessica ‘CasKILLAMcCaskill.

All year, she and manager/trainer Rick Ramos have been expressing their wish, via social media, to face Irish gold medalist turned professional world champion Katie Taylor.
На Середа, Грудня 13, they will get their wish, as Chicago-based McCaskill (5-1, 3 КО) will challenge Taylor (7-0, 4 КО) for her WBA Lightweight Championship at York Hall in London, Англія, and live before a massive audience on Sky Sports.
I’m relieved. I’ve been working toward this fight for a long time,” said McCaskill, номінальний #2 in the world at 135 lbs and #1 in the United States in women’s boxing. “We have been training for this fight since my last fight because we knew it was coming and we’ve definitely bumped up the intensity.
Before turning professional a year ago, the popular Taylor, from Bray, won lightweight gold at the 2012 London Olympics, as well as an impressive assortment of world and European amateur championships. Known as the Irish athlete of her entire generation, Taylor is regarded as a superstar in the UK because of her aggressive and crowd-pleasing style.
I’ve never watched a full fight of hers,” professed McCaskill. “I’ve seen some highlights. I see mistakes she makes, but it’s not so much what I see in her. It’s what I see in all her opponents. They’ve all been scared of her. I am not. You won’t see any fear in me. Everybody else was terrified to engage her. They just showed up. I’ll be fighting to the last bell.
Much of the credit for landing the fight must go to Ramos, who doggedly pursued Taylor and her promoter, Eddie Hearn of Matchroom Boxing, on social media.
I felt like offended about comments Katie and Eddie made about how no one wants to fight her,” explained Ramos. “I remember thinking, ‘well, NO ONE called Jessica. We would love to fight Katie!’ That kind of started everything. Eddie Hearn finally did contact me via Instagram and things started getting real. I was happy that my social-media tactic worked!”
McCaskill, who also works full-time in Regulatory and Reporting at R.J. O’Brien & Associates investment bank in Chicago, says she’s not intimidated about stepping into Taylor’s home field for this fight. Насправді, she’s expecting a number of her fans to be there as well.
It’s funny because of my job and my previous investment banking job, I have a lot of contacts and friends over there who are excited to show up for me. My company I work for has a branch that is three miles from the venue. I’ll be expecting a lot of fans there for me as well that night. It would be incredible to headline over there and to break her undefeated record and get my first world title in one night in front of them. Не можу дочекатися!”

Two-time world champion Beibut Shumenov Retires due to severe eye injury

ПРЕС-РЕЛІЗ
Лас-Вегас (Червень 26, 2017) – Два-Всесвітня боксерська асоціація (WBA) чемпіон світу Шуменов Бакбо has relinquished his WBA cruiserweight world title, due to his career-ending eye injury, and he has announced his retirement from the ring.
I have regrettably relinquished my WBA cruiserweight title and retired from boxing because of a traumatic eye injury suffered the week before my last scheduled fight,” Shumenov said from his Las Vegas home. “I’m extremely disappointed my boxing career has ended like this but, на жаль, injuries are part of this sport and there’s nothing I can do about it. I still have blurred vision and I need to have an additional surgery next month to try to further repair so I don’t risk blindness in my (право) eye.

I’d like to thank my family, my team throughout the years, friends and fans for their continued support all these years. I was proud to wear the WBA championship belt for many years as a two-division champion. I’m grateful to WBA President Gilberto Jesus Mendoza, його батько, and all those in my WBA family. It was quite a ride and I look forward with great anticipation to the next chapter of my life with my son and future endeavors.

Шуменов (17-2, 11 КО), a 2004 Казахстан олімпієць, was scheduled to face Interim WBA champion Юніер Дортікос (21-0, 20 КО) in the April 29ї головна подія Прем'єр Бокс чемпіонів на FS1 і FOX Депортес, від Сема міста живуть в Лас-Вегасі.

During his last slated sparring sessions, Shumenov suffered an eye injury that required immediate surgery, forcing him to withdraw from his Квітня 29 fight against Dorticos.

Earlier this month, the WBA received a letter from Shumenov’s eye surgeon, Доктор. Kent L. Wellish, who wrote the following: “Містер. Beibut Shumenov has a serious ocular issue, a recurrent corneal erosion of his right eye, that with continued fighting, puts him at risk for permanently losing his eyesight.

It is my medical opinion that he should permanently refrain from sparring, training and boxing due to the severity of damage to his eye and the high risk of further damage of vision impairment, including the possibility of permanent vision loss.
The WBA accepted Shumenov’s relinquishment of his championship, noting that it expressed its gratitude and pride for his professional career with the WBA.

The last three years of Shumenov’s career was marred by inactivity, in which he fought only three times due to lack of managerial support, despite him training daily, in top shape and always being ready to fight. Насправді, he sparred almost 400 rounds since his last fight (Травня 21, 2016) in anticipation of, перший, a unification fight with Денис Лебедєвand then for his fight versus Dorticos. Neither happened, проте, as boxing politics enabled Lebedev to avoid fighting Shumenov, who defeated BJ Флорес а потімJunior Anthony Wright in back-to-back WBA elimination fights to be Lebedev’s mandatory challenger.

Even Shumenov’s mandatory fight against Dorticos was unnecessarily delayed because Dorticos’ промоутер, Caribe Promotions, defaulted its right to promote the fight it had won by purse bid, followed by continuous and numerous date changes from February to March until finally landing on Квітня 29.

The 33-year-old Shumenov retires as the first and only two-division world champion to date from Kazakhstan, as well as the record-holder for fewest fights needed to win the world light heavyweight championship, 10.

During his 9 1/2 -year pro career, Shumenov defeated four world championsГабріель Кампільо, Байрон Мітчелл, Вільям Джоппі і Montell Гріффінas well as world title challengers Епіфаніо Мендоса, Vlacheslav Узелков, Денні Сантьяго, Енріке Орнеласа, Тамаш Ковач, BJ Флорес і Молодший Райт.
