 PARK CITY, Kansas ( ເດືອນພະຈິກ 20, 2017) – USA Olympian and hometown hero Nico Hernandez and Hungarian flyweight champion Jozsef “ນ້ອຍສີແດງ” Ajtai took completely different paths into the professional ranks. Hernandez vs, Ajtai is the eight-round main event for the vacant International Boxing Association (IBA) Americas flyweight title fight, ວັນເສົາ ໃນຕອນກາງຄືນ, ເດືອນທັນວາ 2, ໃນ “KO ກາງຄືນມວຍ: ຄໍາ & ລັດສະຫມີພາບ” ບັດ, ທີ່ Hartman ສະຫນາມກິລາໃນ Park City, Kansas.
“KO ກາງຄືນມວຍ: ຄໍາ & ລັດສະຫມີພາບ” ຄໍາສະເຫນີຂອງ KO ກາງຄືນມວຍ LLC., ໃນສະມາຄົມກັບ Hartman ສະຫນາມກິລາ, ແລະສະຫນັບສະຫນູນບາງສ່ວນໂດຍ Twister City Harley-Davidson Metro PCS, Mort’s Cigar Bar ແລະJimmy’s Egg.
ການດໍາເນີນການຈະໄດ້ຮັບການບັນທຶກເທບທີ່ມີຊີວິດສໍາລັບການສົນທະນາໃນອະນາຄົດກ່ຽວກັບການ CBS Sports Network.
The 21-year-old Hernandez (3-0, 2 KOs), ການຕໍ່ສູ້ຂອງ Wichita, was a decorated amateur boxer who compiled a sterling 123-12 ການບັນທຶກ, highlighted by his bronze-medal winning performance at the 2016 ໂອລິມປິກເກມໃນປະເທດບຣາຊິນ. Hernandez made his pro debut last March. All his fights have been at home, each has been in the main event, and on national television. His fight against Ajtai, ຢ່າງໃດກໍຕາມ, will be his first title fight, coming in only his fourth pro bout.
Ajtai, ຜູ້ທີ່ເປັນຫນຶ່ງປີແລະຫົກມື້ອາຍຸຕໍ່າກວ່າ Hernandez, made his professional debut 2 ½ years ago, and he’s already fought in five title fights.
Hernandez’ amateur pedigree versus Ajtai’s pro experience?
“I feel like I’m already at the level of a lot of top pro fighters,” Hernandez said. The only advantage he has is he’s used to fighting more rounds than I (this is Nico’s first scheduled 8-rounder), but I don’t plan on letting it go the distance anyways.
“I feel blessed to have this IBA title fight opportunity so early in my pro career. It honestly couldn’t come any faster. I do believe it will be special and open a tot of opportunities to fight bigger names once I win this fight. A win should open-up additional title fight opportunities, both overseas and, hopefully, back here at home to help us continue building Wichita into a fight town.”
Ajtai (19-9, 12 KOs) has already had 28 ການຕໍ່ສູ້ສົ່ງເສີມ, including a full 10-round distance loss by decision last year at Madison Square Garden in New York City to two-time Olympic gold medalist Shiming Zou, ອະດີດອົງການມວຍໂລກ (WBO) ຟາຍເວດແຊ້ມໂລກ. The Hungarian has fought at home in Hungary, as well as on the road in the United Kingdom, ສະເປນ, ເຢຍລະມັນ, Ukraine ແລະສະໂລວາເກຍ. A trip to America’s heartland doesn’t faze him in the least.
“He will be at home, where everybody wants to fight, but this isn’t a problem for me,” Ajtai explained. “I know he is a good boxer, but I will try to be a bit better December 2nd. When my condition is good, as it is for this fight, nobody likes to fight me.
“ນີ້ແມ່ນເປັນໂອກາດອັນໃຫຍ່ຫຼວງສໍາລັບຂ້າພະເຈົ້າ. It’s always difficult to beat a good fighter but doing so is real success. Fighting Shiming Zou in only my fourth fight was very nice for me. I want that feeling again in this fight against Nico.”
Hernandez realizes that this fight could be his last at home for a while, due to the lack of quality American flyweights, and that most world-class fighters in his weight class are from Central America, Thailand and Japan.
“I don’t think I’ll have many more fights at home,” Hernandez admits. “I don’t think that will matter too much because I feel more pressure fighting at home than elsewhere. I will miss everyone cheering my name like they do at home. I think I’ll be traveling more to fight bigger names to work my way up the ladder until I’m at the top.
“I think the early rounds in this fight (vs. Ajtai) will be a chess match because, from what I’ve seen, he runs a lot. I feel that once I start landing my body shots, he’ll slowdown in the latter rounds. ແລະ, like I’ve said, I don’t plan on this fight going the distance.”
Ajtai, ແນ່ນອນ, isn’t traveling all the way to Kansas to visit Dorothy or the Wizard of Oz, ເຂົາ 's ມາຈະຊະນະ!
“Nico ຈະບໍ່ຮູ້ວ່າບ່ອນທີ່ຂ້າພະເຈົ້າຈະຢູ່ໃນວົງການ,” Ajtai ຄາດ. “ໃນເວລາທີ່ເຂົາເບິ່ງໄປທາງຊ້າຍສໍາລັບຂ້າພະເຈົ້າ, ຂ້າພະເຈົ້າຈະໄປສິດທິໃນການ; ໃນເວລາທີ່ເຂົາພະຍາຍາມທີ່ຈະຊອກຫາຂ້າພະເຈົ້າກ່ຽວກັບສິດທິໃນການ, ພຣະອົງຈະຢູ່ທາງຊ້າຍ. ໃນເວລາທີ່ເຂົາຕ້ອງການທີ່ຈະພັກຜ່ອນ, ຂ້າພະເຈົ້າຈະມາຕໍ່ punching; ໃນເວລາທີ່ເຂົາຕ້ອງການທີ່ຈະດີໃຈຫລາຍ, ເຂົາຈະບໍ່ເຫັນຂ້າພະເຈົ້າ.
“ຂ້າພະເຈົ້າມີແຜນການສໍາລັບການຕໍ່ສູ້ນີ້ແລະຂ້າພະເຈົ້າແນ່ໃຈວ່າເຂົາບໍ່ເຊັ່ນດຽວກັນ. ແຕ່, ໃນວົງການ, ພຽງແຕ່ແຜນການຫນຶ່ງ fighter ຂອງສາມາດສໍາເລັດ. It’s going to be a good fight, ແຕ່ຂ້າພະເຈົ້າບໍ່ສາມາດສັນຍາກັບປະຊາຊົນວ່າ Nico ຈະເປັນຜູ້ໄດ້.”
