LOS ANGELES (Mars 21, 2024) – Torontos obesegrade World Boxing Association (WBA) Interkontinental mästare i lätt tungvikt Kareem "Supreme" Hackett (12-0, 6 Kos) kommer att göra sitt första titelförsvar i mars 30^th mot Rowdy Legend Montgomery (10-5-1, 7 Kos) i en 10-omgångsmatch på ett Golden Boy Promotions-kort med rubriken av WBA Cruiserweight World-titelkampen mellan titelförsvararen Arsen Goulimarian och Hacketts stallkamrat, före detta världsmästaren i supermellanvikt Gilberto "Zurdo" Ramirez.

All action kommer att streamas live på DAZN från YouTube Theatre i Los Angeles.

WBA Nej. 13 världsrankade Hackett tog sin krona i september förra året 20^th i Plant City, Florida, när han dominerade 4-1 favoriten och tidigare obesegrade Clay Waterman (11-0, 8 Kos) på väg till ett enhälligt beslut i tio omgångar, där han vann alla 10 omgångar på två av domarnas styrkort och nio på den andra domarens.

"Jag skulle ha velat slåss tidigare men det är så den här verksamheten går," sa Hackett. "Det är svårare att få slagsmål efter att ha vunnit min titel än vad det var. Mycket bra har hänt sedan min senaste kamp. Jag förstår. Jag har en titel och jag är världsrankad. Jag har en tydligare väg mot en världsmästartitel. Jag uppskattar alla möjligheter att komma i ringen.”

"Jag har fått mer respekt sedan jag visade mina kunskaper på ProBox.TV. (Annonsörer) Juan Manual Marguez, Paulie Malignaggi och Chris Algieri gav mig mycket rekvisita och det har varit väldigt validerande.”

Hackett har fått ovärderlig erfarenhet av att sparra världsmästare som "Zurdo" Ramirez, Dmitry Bivol, Peter "Kid Choklad" Quillin, Sergio Mora, Mathew Macklin och David Benavidez.

Hackett har redan etablerat de första av en Toronto-boxare när det gäller att slåss på ett Golden Boy Promotions-kort och bli WBA Inter-Continental Light Heavyweight-titelinnehavare.

"Jag är en banbrytare för boxning i Toronto,” förklarade kampanjfri agent Hackett med stor stolthet. "Jag vill ta hem den första världstiteln, Säkert, och en dag de obestridda och enhetliga titlarna, alltför, Toronto är en storstad med mycket naturtalanger, men jag vet inte varför boxningen inte har trivts där."

Hackett tränas av snabbt stigande Julian Chua på Brickhouse Boxing Club i North Hollywood (SÅSOM) och sköts av 3 Punkthantering (3 PM).

"(Dmitry) Bivol står i spetsen för divisionen lätt tungvikt, och jag vet att han är en stark kille,” noterade Hackett. "Vi har ändrat en del saker sedan min senaste kamp med slutet i åtanke. Vi har tredubblats, styrkemässigt, för när vi stöter på honom. Det är den huvudsakliga förändringen. Jag känner att jag är den smidigaste fightern i vår division och jag jobbar på att bli starkare för att matcha mina färdigheter och ring-IQ.”

I 2024, Hackett vill lägga till hårdvara och slåss mot en topp-10 rankad motståndare men, åtminstone för stunden, han är glad över att vara i sin kamp med Montgomery i sitt andra hem, Los Angeles.

"Jag älskar att den här kampen är i LA,” avslutade Hackett. "Jag trivs i Los Angeles. Jag känner mig hemma här och slåss på andra platser i Kalifornien. Jag är också glad över att slåss på ett kort med rubriken av en av mina närmaste vänner inom boxning (Southpaw)."

Gilberto "Zurdo" Ramirez Kämpar för sitt arv

LOS ANGELES (Mars 20, 2024) -- Förre världsboxningsorganisationens supermellanviktsmästare Gilberto "Zurdo" Ramirez (45-1, 30 Kos) kämpar för sitt arv, med början i mars 30^th när han utmanar obesegrade World Boxing Association (WBA) Cruiserweight-världsmästaren Arsen "Feroz" Goulamirian (21-0, 14 Kos) på You Tube Theatre i Hollywood Park i Inglewood, Kalifornien.

12-rundan Goulamirian vs. Zurdo huvudevenemang rubricerar ett starkt kort, främjas av Golden Boy Promotions i samarbete med Y12 Boxing, som kommer att streamas live på DAZN.

Ramirez, 32, var den första mexikanska boxaren att ta en världstitel i supermellanvikt och nu vill han duplicera den oöverträffade bedriften mot Goulamirian, den armeniskfödde mästaren som bor i Frankrike och tränar i Big Bear, Kalifornien.

"Att bli den första mexikanskfödda världsmästaren i cruiservikt och världsmästaren i två divisioner är väldigt viktigt för mig,sa Ramirez. ”Arvet är det enda vi lämnar efter oss i den här världen, Jag var stolt över att vara den första mexikanen att bli världsmästare i supermellanvikt och jag kan inte vänta med att bli först igen i cruiserweight.

"Jag lär mig fortfarande varje dag. Joe Smith var en tuff uppgift och jag var tvungen att implementera några nya saker till min stil. Och den här kampen är inte annorlunda; varje läger försöker jag lägga till något nytt för att öka mina chanser att vinna. Jag känner mig bekväm med den här vikten. Naturligtvis, när jag blev äldre, det var tuffare att göra vikten och nu verkar allt vara lättare. Som jag alltid säger, det finns ingen bättre lärare än erfarenhet i det här livet."

Zurdos slutmål, emellertid, är att bli tredivisionsvärldsmästare, riktar in sig på tungviktsdivisionen när han har rensat upp viktklassen i cruiservikt.

"Det finns fortfarande många slagsmål som kan göras i den här divisionen,” förklarade Zurdo. "Jag skulle älska att enas och/eller bli den obestridda mästaren innan jag tar steget upp. När allt är sagt och gjort, mitt mål är att bli en multidivisionsmästare och avsluta min karriär som en tungviktare.”

McAllister KOs Djarbeng – Adds a WBO Title To His Collection of Championship Accolades

Juni 1, 2021 FNU47 Lämna en kommentar

Ringside Report: Gianluca Di Caro

Six time, Five Division World Champion Lee McAllister not only successfully defended the **Professional Boxing Council (PBC) Intercontinental title** he secured in Accra, Ghana back in March this year, but also added the vacant **World Boxing Organization (WBO) Africa Zone Championship** belt to his huge collection, following a fourth knockout of Ghanaian Richmond Djarbeng on the **LET BATTLE COMMENCE IV** event that took place at the Northern Hotel in Aberdeen on Saturday 29th May 2021.

Fifty lucky fans were ringside to watch the UK’s most decorated boxer in action, as LET BATTLE COMMENCE IV was the first boxing ‘test’ event in Scotland, which hopefully will lead to more fans, preferably up to full capacity, being able to attend boxing events from next month as the pandemic restrictions are relaxed further.

Millions more tuned in to watch the live and free to view the Globally broadcast event on FITE, VIVA LIVE, PPV LIVE as well as the numerous digital and linear channels that also carried the live broadcast.

There wasn’t that much action initially in the first round, so much so that world renowned Championship Referee Roger Barnor stepped in and ‘encouraged’ the protagonists to stop tentatively testing and throw some real punches in anger, which they did in style during the dying seconds of the round.

The first minute of the second stanza contained more action than the entire first round, albeit much of it being testing shots, well that is until around mid-point when McAllister burst into action, letting rip with a succession of blistering shots to send Djarbeng down to the canvas.

Have to say I was mightily surprised that Djarbeng was able to beat the count, men han gjorde, and on the restart the ‘Aberdeen Assassin’ calmly strode over and let rip another flurry of scintillating powerful Exocets to body and head to send the Ghanaian to the deck for a second and surely final time – men ingen, much to everyone’s surprise Djarbeng, som var klart mycket smärta, once again managed to make it to his feet before Roger Barnor finished the count.

On the restart once again McAllister went on the attack, yet somehow Djarbeng managed to survive the onslaught and even let rip with some shots of his own.

Round three was an edgy affair, with both fighters working off their jabs, Djarbeng proved to be quite durable, I for one was surprised when he shrugged off some seriously vicious shots to the head as the round progressed.

The fourth was by far the best round so far, action wise, and once again the Ghanaian showed just how tough he was as once again he survived some seriously powerful shots, to both body and head, that clearly hurt him.

As the round progressed McAllister landed more big shots, after which Djarbeng would grab hold of the increasingly aggressive McAllister. This tactic didn’t do the Ghanaian many favours as the Aberdeen Assassin just kept letting rip and the inevitable happened, Djarbeng crashed to the deck for a third time following a huge right-left combination to the head, this time though Djarbeng just couldn’t rise to his feet and was clearly in a lot of pain. Referee Roger Barnor waived the fight off with just twelve seconds of the round remaining.

WBO Africa’s Samir Captan presented both Championship belts as PBC President Russell Jaques was busy co-commentating alongside Sportanarium Radio’s Trevor Lake.

Preceding McAllister-Djarbeng was a fantastic lightweight contest between Denny’s Kevin Traynor and Tilbury Village’s debuting Jay Cartwright, who stepped in with just a day notice after Traynor’s original opponent Nicaraguan Jose Aguilar failed to gain entry into the UK after flying in from Spain.

The first round was phenomenal, it was all action with both protagonists giving everything for virtually every second of the round. I couldn’t split them and neither could referee Roger Barnor.

Round two was another full on war, boy oh boy did these warriors go for it! However the pace had a seriously detrimental affect on Cartwright, he was out on his feet as he headed back to his corner at the end of the round, so much so that his corner summoned over Roger Barnor and retired his charge in the corner.

Plaudits to Jay Cartwright, he was expecting to be making his professional debut in Colchester on the 31st July 2021, yet bravely agreed to take the fight at very short notice, even though he had not had any time to prepare fully for this contest.

The third bout of the evening see Aberdeen’s Nathan Beattie in action against another late replacement, Belfast’s Marty Kayes who stepped in when Nicaraguan Christian Narvaez, who like Aguilar was refused entry to the UK after flying in from Spain as a replacement for original opponent Dundalk’s Michael Kelly.

At this point I think I should mention that it was Kayes’ wedding anniversary the following day and somehow got his wife Julia’s permission to cancel their planned evening out to take the fight, I think that may just set the scene perfectly.

Kayes was clearly in the mood for a good scrap, right from the opening bell of the contest he took control of centre ring and just kept forcing Beattie onto the back foot before letting rip with shot after shot.

It really wasn’t that much different in the second, don’t get me wrong Beattie landed the best shots by far in each round, just not enough of them to secure either of the rounds.

Beattie started to get more proactive in the third and again landed the most telling shots, but still it was the Irishman that was dictating the proceedings, the same in the fourth and final round.

At the end of four action packed rounds Nate Dog’s fans were clearly expecting their hero to secure the win or at worse a draw, but when Referee Lee Murtagh’s scorecards were announced they fell into a stunned silence as they declared a 40-38 points victory in favour of Marty Kayes

The second fight of the night pitted Aberdeen’s Craig Dick (2-0-0) against Essex based Lithuanian hard-man Tomas Vaicickas (1-2-0) in a four round Heavyweight contest.

Dick is a renowned heavy hitter and Vaicickas is extremely durable, so nobody could or would have expected the contest to come to it’s conclusion after just 47 sekunder, men det gjorde det, following Dick letting rip with a huge powerful hook to the body that sent the Lithuanian to the canvas just twenty seconds into the round.

I was surprised when Vaicickas made the count and continued but not that surprised he was to return to the deck seconds later following another big hook to the ribs.

The opening contest featured local big hitting youngster Liam Allan in action against Belfast’s Darren Burns

What a cracking opening round, both lads vying to control centre ring, some very tasty bombs were thrown by both protagonists, a cracking round to watch.

Both lads started the second stanza more cautiously, Burns was the first to throw a big shot, but Allan, who is remarkably agile for a big lad, moved just enough to prevent it landing, Allan then took to the front foot backing up Burns before letting rip with a huge right to send the Irishman to the canvas.

Burns made the count, but on the restart Allan moved in and let rip with a big left, followed by a left-right combination that rocked Burns, Allan continued the assault with another powerful left-right to send Burns down for the second time .

Again Burns made the count, this time Allan stepped in on the restart and let rip with a massive right to send the tough as nails Irishman down to the canvas where he ended doubled up, Referee Lee Murtagh was so concerned he immediately waived the fight off and summoned Burns’ corner and the medical team to the ring.

I’m pleased to say the medical team wasn’t needed and the official time of the stoppage was one minute and fifty four seconds off the second round.

Have to say it was really great to be at an event with fans in attendance again, even though there was only fifty allowed, it may sound crazy but even though the fans were instructed by the authorities to stay seated and just offer polite clapping at the end of the fights, the atmosphere was so different from the ‘behind closed doors’ events that had preceded over the past year.

For reference, as I am sure a lot of people will be wondering how Lee Mcallister was eligible to compete for the WBO Africa region Championship, this was explained on the British & Irish Boxing Authority’s website on the result page, which states; It should be noted that Mr McAllister was eligible to compete for the World Boxing Organization (WBO) Africa Championship due to his Ghana National Championship (and PBC Intercontinental Championship) victory over Collinson Korley on the 7th March 2021 in Accra, Ghana – it should also be noted Mr McAllister was eligible to compete for the Ghana National Championship as well as the World Boxing Organization (WBO) Africa Zone Championship due to family heritage.

Finally if you missed the live broadcast of LET BATTLE COMMENCE IV, you can still catch up as free to view replays are available on FITE athttps://www.fite.tv/watch/let-battle-commence-iv/2p9er/ – or check listings for replays on your local TV listings or if in UK the entire event will be available on demand via Sports Channel Network (Channel 265 on Freeview.YouView) from next weekend.

Perfect connection Gilberto“Zurdo” Ramirez & Trainer Julian Chua

Maj 26, 2021 FNU47 Lämna en kommentar

LAS VEGAS (Maj 25, 2021) – Back in February of 2019, World Boxing Organization (WBO) Super Middleweight ChampionGilberto "Zurdo" Ramirez had made a decision to move up to fight in the light heavyweight division, and he was searching for a new head trainer.

Ramirez (41-0, 27 Kos) immediately connected with a then 28-year-oldJulian Chua, a former amateur boxer who had been training boxers atFreddie Roach’s famed Wildcard Boxing Club in Hollywood, California. “Zurdo” and Chua are now 2-0 (2 Kos) and preparing for a mega-fought later this year, ideally, against undefeated World Boxing Association (WBA) Super Light Heavyweight ChampionDmitry Bivol (17-0, 11 Kos).

How Ramirez ended up with Chua as he head trainer isn’t a typical boxing story. After all, “Zurdo” was the first Mexican world super middleweight champion, sporting a 29-0 pro record, and only 27 when they first met.

Ramirez’ manager, David Suh, conducted a search to hire Ramirez’ chief second. He had a list that included some of the top trainers in the industry, as well as a young, relatively unknown – at least outside of southern California – in Chua.

“I don’t know how I got on that list,” a humble Chua said. “There was going to be a tryout of sorts to determine who would work with ‘Zurdo.’ We trained together in Long Beach (where Ramirez was training) and then I met with David for coffee. He asked if I was interested in becoming the head trainer. We trained together a little more. He liked the way I trained, and we got along well. I texted David saying we liked working together and that I was interested in becoming his head trainer.

“We clicked right away, and we learned things about each other and how we liked to train. I study a lot and do a lot of research of how he had been trained, because I wanted to help him to improve. I was getting four fighters ready in LA and “Zurdo” couldn’t go there for sparring. I said I couldn’t leave these fighters and go to Santa Barbara. “Zurdo” respected me even more for not jumping ship from those four fighters for a better opportunity. We still wanted to work with each other, and ‘Zurdo’ made it work. I went to Long Beach twice a week, he came to Wildcard three times.”

Ramirez won his light heavyweight debut April 12, 2019, närTommy Karpency (29-6-1) kunde inte fortsätta efter fyra omgångar, followed last December 18^th med en 10^th round stoppage ofAlfonso Lopez (32-3) to capture the North American Boxing Federation (NABF) titel.

Chua was trained by Roach when he was an amateur from Indiana, but when Chua started at Wildcard, Roach’s assistantEric Brown became Chua’s mentor. During his training career atWildcard West Boxing, known now as Churchill Boxing in Santa Barbara, Chua has trained several world champions in boxing and MMA.

The 29-year-old Ramirez, who recently signed an exclusive promotional contract withOscar De La Hoya’s Golden Boy Promotions, is currently ranked No. 3 by the WBA and WBO. “Zurdo” returns to action July 9^th in Los Angeles againstSullivan Barrera (22-3, 14 Kos).

Whether it’s Bivol, or the other world light heavyweight champions — Artur Beterbiev ochJoe Smith – “Zurdo” and Chua are preparing to beat the best for Ramirez to wear the coveted World championship crown in a second division.

Shields To Face IBF Super Welterweight Champion Marie-Eve Dicaire With All Four Major Belts On The Line In 154-Pound Unification Bout

SHOWTIME BOXNING: SPECIAL EDITION Saturday, Maj 9 Vid 9 p.m. OCH / 6 p.m. PT

NEW YORK – March 11, 2020 – Undefeated three-division world champion Claressa Shields will attempt to become the first boxer in the four-belt era to become an undisputed world champion in two weight divisions when she faces unbeaten IBF Super Welterweight Champion Marie-Eve Dicaire in a 154-pound unification bout on Saturday, Maj 9, leva på SHOWTIME(9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT) from the Dort Federal Credit Union Event Center in Shields’ hometown of Flint, mig.

The winner of the SHOWTIME BOXING: SPECIAL EDITION main event will walk away with Shields’ WBC and WBO titles, Dicaire’s IBF belt, and the WBA (Super) crown. This is the first time in its 99-year history that the WBA has awarded a Super Champion belt to a female boxer.

Tickets for the Salita Promotions event start at $35 and can be purchased at Ticketmaster.com and at the Dort Federal Credit Union Event Center box office.

“I can’t wait to make history again on May 9,” said Shields. “Fighting in Flint in front of all my fans has been a dream of mine since turning pro. Having the opportunity to make history by fighting for the undisputed title in a second weight division is something I’m very proud of. Fighting against undefeated IBF 154-pound champion Marie-Eve Dicaire continues my quest to fight the very best in women’s boxing. And headlining on SHOWTIME again will continue my goal to lift women’s boxing to new heights. I’m going to give Flint and fight fans all over the world a night to remember on May 9!"

“I am very excited for this opportunity and it is an honor to face an opponent like Claressa Shields,” said Dicaire. “I am thankful to my promoter Yvon Michel and everyone involved in making this possible. For me, this is a dream come true. I will be prepared the best I can be and I am ready to leave everything in the ring to win the fight!"

In the four-belt era, only seven fighters have been undisputed in one division, including Shields, Katie Taylor, Cecilia Braekhus, Bernard Hopkins, Jermain Taylor, Terence Crawford, and Oleksandr Usyk.

på januari 10 i Atlantic City, N.J., Shields made history by claiming the WBC and WBO 154-pound world championships with a dominating unanimous decision over Ivana Habazin. Shields blev historiens snabbaste kämpe, man eller kvinna, att vinna världstitlar i tre olika viktdelar, surpassing the records of Vasiliy Lomachenko and Kosei Tanaka, som båda uppnådde brådskan i 12 slagsmål.

Den 24-åriga Shields (10-0, 2 Kos) övermannade Habazin från öppningsklockan, med hjälp av en stark jab och en stadig diet av kroppsskott som lämnade kroaten mestadels i defensivt läge under 10-omgångsslaget. I sjätte omgången, a series of body shots forced Habazin to take a knee in the first knockdown of her career.

“SHOWTIME has a long history of featuring the best in women’s combat sports, whether it was with Gina Carrano, Cris Cyborg and Ronda Rousey in MMA, or Laila Ali and Christy Martin in boxing,”Sade Gordon Hall, Executive Producer of SHOWTIME BOXING: SPECIALUTGÅVA. “More recently, we have shown Claressa Shields, Christina Hammer, Lightweight Champion Katie Taylor and seven-division champion Amanda Serrano. Shields vs. Dicaire will be our 12th women’s boxing event since 2017. Claressa’s bout with Dicaire represents another historic battle of unbeatens and attempt for another ‘first’ on SHOWTIME as Claressa looks to become undisputed in two weight classes.”

“I am excited to bring a historic night of boxing to fans in Flint at the Dort Federal Credit Union Event Center and to those watching on SHOWTIME,"Said Dmitriy Salita, VD för Salita Promotions. ”I Claressa Shields och Marie-Eve Dicaire, Vi har de två bästa juniorviktarna i världen och två obesegrade mästare som kämpar för det obestridda världsmästerskapet. Förutom hennes redan historiska lista över först, om seirande, Claressa blir den första obestridda mästaren i två divisioner i fyrbälte-eran. Det blir en triumferande natt i Flint den 9 maj. ”

Efter att ha blivit den första amerikanska boxaren i historien - man eller kvinna - som vann två olympiska guldmedaljer i rad, Sköldar blev professionella efter 2016 OS och rubriken det första kvinnors boxnings-huvudevenemanget i premium-kabel-tv-historien i bara hennes andra professionella kamp 2017. Sköldar, som kommer att gå i riktning för sjunde gången på SHOWTIME, now has her sights on making even more history.

“Claressa Shields continues to be a beacon of light and a trailblazer for women’s boxing, women’s sports, and boxing overall,” said Mark Taffet, Shields’ manager. “Being the only American to win back-to-back Olympic Gold in boxing, having won world titles in three weight divisions faster than any man or woman in boxing history, and now having the chance to be the first person – man or woman – to be an undisputed champion in two weight divisions in the four-belt era, Claressa will continue to add to her list of legendary, unprecedented and history-making accomplishments come May 9. I’m proud to be a part of her journey.”

The 33-year-old Dicaire (17-0) is from Saint-Eustache, Quebec, Kanada, and started karate at the age of six. She worked her way up through the ranks until she obtained her black belt. After winning five world championship titles, Dicaire turned her attention to boxing and won the IBF Super Welterweight World Championship belt in December 2018 dethroning by decision the Uruguayan Chris Namus at the Quebec City Videotron Center. In her last fight in November of 2019, Dicaire defended her title for the third time beating experienced Venezuelan Ogleidis Suarez by unanimous decision. Dicaire will be fighting outside of the province of Quebec for the first time on May 9 and will be looking to score the upset victory in front of Shields’ hometown fans.

“Marie-Eve Dicaire against Claressa Shields, a battle of two undefeated champions for all the titles – you can’t get a better match in boxing,” said Yvon Michel, Dicaire’s promoter, VD för GYM. “We have great respect and admiration for all Shields has accomplished but there is no doubt Marie-Eve is the most skilled, strong and dedicated opponent Claressa has faced. We are very confident that all the belts will come back to Canada with us. Thanks to Salita Promotions and SHOWTIME for the opportunity. Marie-Eve Dicaire will provide a great fight for the fans and viewers.”

Barry Tompkins kommer att kalla SHOWTIME BOXING: SPECIAL EDITION action från ringside med boxningshistorikern Steve Farhood och före detta världsmästaren Raul Marquez som tjänar som expertanalytiker. Exekutiv producent är Gordon Hall med Richard Gaughan producera och Rick Phillips rikta.
