Uskon, että olen kaiken kunnian arvoinen, mutta tiedän, että asiat vievät aikaa, ja ajattelin aina laittavani Hall of Fame iässä 40 tai 50. Tämä on iso juttu minulle ja tunnen olevani niin kunnia. Se, että mainitsen nimeni mainittakoon suuret nimet kuten Andre Ward ja Roy Jones, motivoi minua todella. Tunnen olevansa etuoikeutettu!”

USA Boxing siunasi minut paljon tietämystä ja elinikäisiä ystävyyssuhteita kaikkien olympiajoukkueideni ja olympiavalmentajien kanssa. Lempivalmentajani, Koroma, oli kirjaimellisesti kanssani läpi 2015-2016, auttaen minua renkaan ulkopuolella neuvoilla ja renkaan sisällä.”

Naisten nyrkkeily voi mennä pitkälle. Uskon, että tulee päivä, jolloin meille voidaan maksaa miljoonia samoin kuin miehille.”

 

 

 

Avaamalla ovet ja murtaamalla esteet, Claressasta on tullut todellinen esimerkki nuorille kaikkialla, nyrkkeilystä sisään ja ulos.

 

 

 

“Tuntuu hyvältä olla roolimalli heille (naaraat), ja myös niin monelle urosbokserille,” Kilvet huomataan. “Nyrkkeily on eri aikakaudella, ja haluan vain helpottaa tytöille tulemista, joten kun he kääntyvät proksi, nyrkkeily on lähempänä tasa-arvoa.”

Hän on valmentaja, jolle voin kertoa kaiken, ja hän siunasi minua myös nyrkkeilystaidollaan ja sai minut aina tuntemaan olonsa turvalliseksi itsessäni, kun hän oli nurkassa. USA Boxing ei ole vain henkilökuntaa – USA Boxing on perhe! Vaikka minulla on ollut muutama sana kanssani Matthew Johnson ja muu henkilöstö, Kiitän heitä siitä, että he ovat olleet ahkera minulle ja varmistivat, että olen hoitanut vastuuni. Rakkaus kaikelle USA: n nyrkkeilyhenkilökunnalle, Olen todella kiitollinen.”

Training Camp Almost Complete; A Confident and On-Weight Claressa Shields Ready for Hannah Rankin DAZN Showdown on November 17

Women’s superstar and two-division world champion Claressa Shields is in Florida with trainer John David Jackson, finishing up preparations for her showdown with Glasgow, Scotland’s Hannahh Rankin on Saturday, Marraskuu 17, at the Kansas Star Arena and Casino in Mulvane, Kansas.

 

 

 

Shields (6-0, 2 KOs) will defend her IBF and WBA World Middleweight Championships, and be looking to add the vacant WBC title, against Rankin (5-2, 1 KO) in the 10-round co-featured bout to Salita Promotions stablemate Jarrell Miller’s heavyweight showdown against Romania’s Bogdan Dinu.

 

 

 

Both fights, along with former world champion Brandon Rios taking on Canelo’s brother, Ramon Alvarez, in a super welterweight 10-rounder and former two-time world middleweight title challenger Gabriel Rosado going against once-beaten contender Luis Arias, will be broadcast live on DAZN.

 

 

 

23-year-old Shields, a former two-time Olympic Gold Medallist, has reignited interest in women’s boxing and become a ratings favorite for her nationally televised championship exploits. A proud native of Flint, Michigan, Shields mixes her brash pronouncements of greatness with a genuine and continued effort to inspire female athletes and render aid to members of her home community.

 

 

 

Shields was originally scheduled to face WBC and WBO World Middleweight Champion Christina Hammer on November 17, but the bout was postponed after Hammer withdrew due to medical reasons.

 

Did the change of opponents from Hammer to Rankin affect your training?

 

 

 

I don’t train for my opponents, I just push to get the best out of me, fyysisesti ja henkisesti. If I’m the best ‘me,’ I don’t have to worry about who the opponent is. The change of opponents didn’t bother me at all; the worst thing about this camp for me was just all the date changes – constantly having to get my mind focused on the pace and timing of training depending on the fight date. I can’t wait to get in the ring!

 

You’ve fought at super middleweight 168 and recently at middleweight 160 kiloa. How is your training, diet and any other efforts different to make 160?

 

 

 

Training is always hard and I’m constantly learning. I’ve had a completely different diet this camp – a real change and a positive one for me. I’ve teamed up with Perfecting Athletes for my daily meals, ja minusta tuntuu hyvältä. I’ve always tried to eat healthy but these folks are pros and are more educated in that field than myself. I have this magic drink that makes my stomach smile – I love it! It’s watermelon mixed with a green vegetable. I’m not going to tell you what vegetable it is, but I’ve been drinking it everyday, and I feel GREAT.

 

Your viewership numbers have been very strong. Why do you think people are drawn to you?

 

 

 

I believe that people are drawn to how real and honest I am, sekä sisään ja ulos rengas. I say what I mean and mean what I say. I’m hard but I have a soft side also. And I think people are drawn to how I fightnot only do I talk a good game but I fight my aoff too! annan 1000% every time – I want to change the game and bring a whole new generation of fans to women’s boxing and boxing overall.

 

What do you know about your opponent Hannah Rankin?

 

 

 

I know that my opponent Rankin is very tough and determined to be a world champion. I like her drive, I like her heart. I know that she has been in the ring as a sparring partner for many champions, one being Christina Hammer. So Rankin has seen some good fighters. But one thing is for sure – she has never seen a fighter like me. And since Hammer couldn’t fight because of her medical condition, in many ways the next best thing is to fight and beat her sparring partner and let Rankin tell Hammer what she’s in for when she returns!

 

What needs to be done to solve the Flint water crisis?

 

 

To solve the flint Water crisis, I think that people should continue to give water and also keep it in the news that there is a city in America where, unbelievably, US citizens don’t have clean water. And hopefully the president or our governor do something to fix all the pipes.

 

What’s the secret to becoming the best of the best in any sport?

 

 

 

I believe the secret starts with believing in yourself, being dedicated, working hard and just always striving to be better. I feel I’m my biggest critic when I train and box. It’s hard to watch film of my fights because even though I’m doing 97 things right I just can’t stand to see the 3 things I’m doing wrong. I’m a person who strives to pull out my full potential. It takes guts to be great. Nothing will stand in the way of achieving my goals, which includes being the GWOAT and creating equality for all women fighters when it comes to the money, opportunities and coverage the men get.

Houstonin sulkapaino Roma Martinez edustaa USA: n naisbokserien seuraavaa aaltoa

LEHDISTÖTIEDOTE
Heti julkaistavaksi
Ulkona antamaan lausunnon Buenos Airesin nuoriso-kesäolympialaisissa 2018

Lokakuu. 6-18 Argentiinassa

 

COLORADO SPRINGS, Kierros. (Lokakuu 8, 2018) — Houstonin höyhenpaino Roma Martinez, joka edustaa Yhdysvaltain naisbokserien seuraavaa aaltoa, on tällä hetkellä Argentiinassa ja antaa lausunnon meneillään olevista Buenos Airesin kesäolympialaisista 2018.

 

 

Buenos Airesin nuorisokesäisten kesän olympialaiset 2018 jatkuu lokakuun kautta. 18 Parque Polidesportivo Rocassa Argentiinassa.

 

 

 

18-vuotias Martinez aloitti nyrkkeilyn kuusi vuotta sitten, kun hänen isäpuoli tuli hänen elämäänsä, vie hänet paikalliseen nyrkkeilykuntosaliin pitämään hänet poissa mahdollisista vaikeuksista, sekä puolustaa itseään.

 

 

 

Hän on online-opiskelija Saint Thomasin yliopistossa Houstonissa, Suunnittelu merkittävään liiketoimintaan, ja Roma on pystynyt tasapainottamaan kiireisen aikataulunsa yksinkertaisesta syystä. “Minulla ei ole paljon sosiaalista elämää,” hän myönsi, “joten minulla on helppo kouluttaa ja opiskella.”

 

 

Argentiina on toinen ulkomaa, johon hän on matkustanut kilpailtuaan viime marraskuussa Intiassa. Vaikka hänellä on suhteellisen rajallinen amatööriura, Martinez on onnistunut vangitsemaan parhaimmat kunnianosoitukset kuudessa kansallisessa tapahtumassa: 2016 USA: n nyrkkeilyn kansalaiset, 2014 & 2015 Se voittaa maailmankaikkeuden, 20-15 Naisten kultainen hansikas, 2-15 Junioriolympialaisten kansalaiset, ja 2014 Ruskeat hanskat.

 

 

 

Kuten monet hänen Team USA-joukkuetovereistaan, kaikkialla maailmassa olevien vastustajien lisäksi, Roma toivoo voivansa tarjota vaikuttavan esityksen Buenos Airesissa parantaakseen mahdollisuuksiaan päästä lopulta 2020 Olympialaiset Japanissa.

 

 

 

“Nuorten olympialaiset ovat urani suurin asia, koska toivon kilpailla 2020 Olympialaiset,” Martinez sanoi. “Nuorten olympialaiset ovat melkein yhtä suuret kuin olympialaiset, vain nuoremmat urheilijat kilpailevat. Otan asioita päivä kerrallaan, mutta minulla on tavoitteita tehdä olympialaiset, voittaa kultamitalin, ja sitten kääntyä ammattilaiseksi ja voittaa maailmanmestari.

 

 

“Tämä on viimeinen nuoriso-kilpailuni. Muutun tämän vuoden joulukuussa Elite Divisioniin. Ikässä on ero (hänen vastustajistaan) ja lisää kansainvälistä kilpailua, mutta tarvitsen kokemusta tavoitteideni saavuttamiseksi.”

 

 

 

Roma, hän sanoo, on tekninen nyrkkeilijä, joka toisinaan painostaa. Hänen suosikki nyrkkeilijänsä on hieno “Sokeri” Ray Leonard ja hän odottaa Nicola Adams (2012 & 2016 Ison-Britannian olympialaisten kultamitalisti) ja Mikaela Mayer (2016 USA: n olympialainen). Roma on hyödyntänyt sparrausistuntoja Adamsin ja Mayerin kanssa, vastaavasti, Houstonissa ja Colorado Springsissä.

 

 

 

Martinez uskoo, että naisten nyrkkeily on nousussa ja odottaa innolla sen tulevaisuutta. “Mitä enemmän huipputasoista naisbokseria, meille tarkoittaa suurempia asioita,” Martinez lisäsi, “Saamme enemmän tv-aikaa ja ansaitsemme enemmän rahaa.”

 

 

 

Roma arvostaa USA: n nyrkkeilyä oppimisestaan ​​kurinalaisuudesta ja on kiitollinen saamastaan ​​erinomaisesta valmennuksesta. Martinez aikoo matkustaa paljon tulevaisuudessa ja kun hän ansaitsee kauppatieteiden tutkinnon, Roma on päättänyt käyttää sitä hyväkseen, ravintolan omistaminen ja, mahdollisesti, kuntosali, jotta hän voi jatkaa nyrkkeilyä, kun hän ripustaa hansikkansa tien päähän.

CORPUS CHRISTI, TX (Syyskuu 22, 2018)Tonight at Whataburger Field in Corpus Christi, TX, San Antonio’s female boxing sensation, Selina “aztec Queen” Lähiöissä (5-0, 2 KOs), remained undefeated with a dominating 10-round unanimous decision victory over Patricia Juarez (4-1), sister of WBC Bantamweight champion, Mariana “Barbie” Juarez (50-9-4, 13 KOs). Kun voitto, Barrios retains her NABF Lightweight title.

 

 

 

In the early rounds, both fighters were very active, throwing a lot of punches, but Barrios was the one landing the cleaner shots. Although Juarez was doing her best to box from the outside using a one-two combo, her power wasn’t enough to keep Barrios off her as she kept coming forward, landing her signature overhand right. Barrios hurt Juarez in round five, knocking her mouthpiece out with right hook, forcing the referee to stop the action momentarily. Juarez recovered but never was able to stop Barrios from coming forward as she continued to land thumping power shots. A clash of head butts cut Barrios on the forehead during the middle rounds, but she was never bothered by them. In the later rounds, Barrios continued to apply pressure, forcing Juarez to fight on the inside. Juarez showed a lot of heart making it to the final bell but came up short as Barrios remains undefeated. Tuloskortit luettu 100-89 ja 99-91 twice all in favor of Barrios.

 

 

 

I felt I controlled the fight from the opening bell,” said Selina Barrios. “Juarez was a very tough opponent and I give her a lot of credit for going the distance. I hit her with a lot of power shots and she hung in there. I didn’t feel any power in her punches, so I kept coming forward. I got the victory and I’m ready to fight any of the champions at Lightweight. Katie Taylor, Mikaela Mayer ja Amanda Serrano, I’m coming for you guys. You can run, but you can’t hide.
