Super Prospect Shohjahon Ergashev Returns Against African Puncher Badru Lusambya on December 14


是時候見!

A year ago, Shohjahon “Shoh” Ergashev was a little-known super lightweight prospect from Central Asia.


然而, being able to punch holes in brick walls has a way of helping people remember your name and the Uzbekistani power puncher has taken the boxing world by storm this year.

擁有超過 300,000 followers on Instagram and his brutal knockout videos on YouTube regularly getting over 500,000 意見, 2018 is Shoh time.

Promoted by Salita Promotions, boxing’s Russian diamond mine, 爾加舍夫 (14-0, 13 科斯) has recently signed a co-managerial deal with TV executive turned super manager Mark Taffet. He will be looking to further his growing reputation on December 14 in a 10-round showdown against Uganda’s Badru Lusambya (26-4-2, 24 科斯) in Krasnodar, 俄羅斯.

“I am very happy to be able to show my skills to my fans in Russia on December 14 and I am training hard for a great victory,“Ergashev說. “Nothing will stop me from realizing my dreams!”
The showdown against Lusambya will be Ergashev’s fifth ring appearance this year (4-0, 3 科斯). He started the year with an impressive nationally televised TKO 3 over then 18-0 桑尼弗雷德里克森.

“Shohjahon has had a tremendous year fighting both in the US and Russia on a consistent basis,” said Dmitriy Salita of Salita Promotions. “His skills, power and charisma are making him a star on both continents. I look forward to a spectacular performance against Lusambya to end the year.”

26-year-old Ergashev is the current WBA International Super Lightweight Champion. His brand-new co-manager Mark Taffet says he appreciates the Uzbek’s willingness to take on dangerous opponents anywhere and any time.

“We are very excited that Shohjahon will be returning to the ring in Russia in what should be a tremendous fight between two knockout artists. The fans are in for a real treat December 14 as Shoh continues his march toward a world title.”

WILLIE MONROE JR. TRAINING CAMP QUOTES
Middleweight Contender Willie Monroe Jr. Talks Upcoming Showdown Against Jermall Charlo Saturday, 十二月 22 in Premier Boxing
Champions on FOX & FOX Deportes Action from Barclays Center in
布魯克林 I’m in my stable now and I’m ready to come flying out of the
gate on December 22,” – Monroe

ROCHESTER,紐約. (十二月 4, 2018) – Middleweight contender and former title challenger 威利·夢露JR. discussed his upcoming contest against WBC Interim Middleweight Champion Jermall夏洛茨維爾 as he prepares to enter the ring in Premier Boxing Champions action Saturday, 十二月 22 live on FOX and FOX Deportes from Barclays Center, 布魯克林拳擊™的家.

With fight night approaching, Monroe is hard at work in his hometown of Rochester,紐約. Along with his coach Timothy Nolan, Monroe believes he is on track to deliver a great performance against an unbeaten opponent.

Everything in camp right now is on point and moving forward,” said Monroe.We’re getting the work we need each day. We know how to run a camp smoothly. If I can’t tell anything is wrong, then it’s going great.

A veteran of two middleweight world title contests against Gennady Golovkin and Billy Joe Saunders, Monroe has had his eye on a Charlo matchup to once again prove himself against an elite middleweight.

I’ve always watched Jermall’s fights because I have an eye on anyone around my weight class,” 夢露說. “Over the last year or so I’ve started to think I’m really going to get this fight and I’m excited about it coming to fruition on December 22.

He’s considered one of the top middleweights and it makes this a great match. This time I’m going to have a full training camp like I didn’t get to have for Golovkin and Saunders and it’s going to help me.

While he doesn’t possess the prodigious knockout power of his opponent, Monroe is more than confident that his other ring attributes will make up for that difference.

We’re both at the top of the division and you don’t get this far without having a lot of physical ability,” 夢露說. “This fight isn’t about who’s the fastest and strongest though, it’s about how we’re going to execute. I’m not focused on who hits harder but who hits smarter. That’s always going to determine who wins a boxing match.

Boxing is about intelligence first and everything follows after that. Will I be able to execute and make Jermall uncomfortable? We’ll see what happens on fight night. I’m going to be ready though. I’m in my stable now and I’m ready to come flying out of the gate on December 22.

Charlo was serving as color commentator for Monroe’s August fight on FS1 and since then the two have gone face-to-face at two separate press events leading up to fight night. With fight week looming, Monroe believes the frequent face time will make an even more exciting fight.

I’m definitely more eager to fight from seeing Jermall over and over again,” 夢露說. “The little things that you pick up in person tend to make you want to fight even more. You see the opponent and you build it up more in your head and use it for motivation. I think it’s going to make it even more entertaining when we finally get in there.

Tickets for the show, which is being promoted by Lions Only Promotions and TGB Promotions in association with DiBella Entertainment, 開始於 $50 and are on sale now. Tickets can be purchased atticketmaster.combarclayscenter.com, 或致電 800-745-3000. Tickets can also be purchased at the American Express Box Office at Barclays Center. 集團折扣可致電844-BKLYN-GP.

ICB SIGNS VANES MARTIROSYAN; CONTENDER TO MAKE CAGE BOXING DEBUT IN 2019



SUPER WELTERWEIGHT FIRST OF SEVERAL
拳擊, MMA STANDOUTS
TO JOIN NEW COMBAT SPORT,
SAYS PROMOTER FULTON


Former super welterweight world contender Vanes Martirosyan of Glendale, 加利福尼亞州。, is the first standout to join International Championship Boxing, promoter of the revolutionary and exciting new combat sport that features boxing in a cage.


Vanes is not just the first to sign a multi-bout, multi-year agreement with ICB, but he’s also the first of several,” says Jack Fulton, founder and Chief Executive Officer of the Virginia-based ICB.


We are in discussions with many boxers, mixed martial artists and kickboxers, and some of the names definitely would surprise,” says Fulton. “It’s more than interest, it’s enthusiasm to box in ‘The Fight Zone.We’ve struck a chord with boxers and MMA fighters, and it’s resonating.


The 32-year-old Martirosyan, originally from Armenia, 有創紀錄 36-4-1 同 21 擊倒.


Martirosyan’s most recent bout was against Gennady Golovkin on May 5 為 “GGG’sWorld Boxing Association and the World Boxing Council middleweight championships, a fight he took on three-week notice.


Martirosyan had two previous title bouts, one for the WBA super welterweight crown and another for the World Boxing Organization super welterweight championship.


Martirosyan’s first bout in the ICB cage will be during the first quarter of 2019.
I was surprised when I heard about boxing in a cage, but at the same time I was real happy,” says Martirosyan. “The idea is just amazing. Fans are going to love it.


I’m going to be a nightmare in the cage,” says Martirosyan. “It’s easier to cut off the cage in a dog fight, and I’m an action fighter; I do bring the action.


I challenge all fighters in the world, boxing or MMA, to come into the cage with me, and I’ll show them what real fighting is all about,” says Martirosyan.


Vanes and his team are excited to be part of this new and unique concept for boxing,” says his manager, Vince Carthron.


It’s a format just made for Vanes, and we are delighted to be there at the beginning and helping to build it,” says Carthron. “It’s good for boxing fans, and it’s good for Vanes.


It took Fulton almost two years to get the cage designed, built, patented and approved by boxing and athletic commissions within the United States, including the state of Nevada.


An 18 year veteran promoter of the sport, through the years Fulton began to realize the sport needed something new, something fresh. And in 2016 he did something about it.


The sport of boxing needed something revolutionary, 這是它,” says Fulton.


The ICB cage better assures toe-to-toe, non-stop action, something that’s appealing to both boxing and mixed martial arts fans, and to the new hybrid athlete that’s proficient in more than one combat sport


We have no doubt ICB boxing in the cage will engage all ring sports fans,” says Fulton. “‘This is boxing for a new generation, a generation that has grown up watching combat sport in a cage. And that’s the main reason we conceived, created and now launched the ICB. It will re-energize boxing fans and bring MMA fans who prefer stand-up striking.


Vanes gets it; he sees the future and the opportunity,” says Fulton. “The ICB cage doesn’t force a boxer or an MMA fighter to make a choice; it offers them flexibility.

Confident Abreu Looks To Shine In Lomachenko-Pedraza Card

Dominican Juan Carlos “Merengue” Abreu (24-4-1, 19 科斯) aims to beat in high fashion the current IBF USBA welterweight champion Alexander Besputin (11-0, 9 科斯) 俄羅斯, in a duel that will be broadcast by the ESPN+ app this Saturday,十二月 8 在 6:00 下午ET.

The fight will be part of the world championship unification bout between José Pedraza and Vasyl Lomachenko at the Madison Square Garden Theater.

I feel very well prepared for this fight. Focused and motivated for victory. It would be very important because it is at a huge event, and many people all over the world will see it. I’m just waiting to have that title, God willing”, said Abreu, who is trained by Chiro Perez in Florida, and managed by Spartan Boxing Club.

“Besputin is strong, and he is protected by Top Rank. I know I have to do extra work than I normally do for the win, and I have the experience to beat him or any other boxer. I am ready to win, and I hope the judges are fair to my performance”, he added.

In his last appearance, Abreu lost by unanimous decision in close fight against Egidijus Kavaliauskas of Lithuania.

I know what it feels like to face the promoter’s fighter and lose unfairly. I’min the same situation this Saturday, but that doesn’t take away my dream of being great in this sport. Let’s do this,” said Abreu.

CLARESSA SHIELDS INDUCTED INTO USA BOXING ALUMNI ASSOCIATION HALL OF FAME

Paving the way for female boxers…..
Claressa盾
USA Boxing is family!”
美國拳擊校友會, 等級 2018 Inductee

科羅拉多斯普林斯, 膝部. (十二月 3, 2018) – Two-time Olympic gold medalist Claressa盾 not only is spearheading a new wave in women’s boxing, she has developed into a true role model for countless youths.

 

 

 

Shields will be inducted into the USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame this Friday night in Salt Lake City, along with Class of 2018 成員 羅伊·瓊斯JR. 和, 沃德, as well as the late Emanuel Stewart 湯姆·克利.

 

 

 

The second annual USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame reception, held in conjunction with the 2018 USA Boxing Elite and Youth National Championships and Junior and Prep Open, 十二月 2-8, will be held December 7, at the Radisson Hotel (215 S. Temple St.) in Salt Lake City, Utah.

 

 

 

I feel honored,” Shields spoke about being inducted into the USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame,” I am only 23 years old and to be inducted into the USA Boxing Hall of Fame is a great honor, but also a shock to me. I believe I am worthy of any honor, but I know things take time, and I always thought I would put in the Hall of Fame at the age 40 或 50. This is a big deal to me and I feel so honored. Just to have my name mentioned alongside names of greats like Andre Ward and Roy Jones just really motivates me. I feel privileged!”

 

 

 

The pride of Flint, 密歇根, Shields has already successfully parlayed her amateur success to the professional ranks, in which she is 7-0 (2), and the reigning unified (IBF, WBA & WBC) 世界中量級冠軍.

 

 

 

Shields finished her amateur career with an incredible 77-1 (18 科斯) 記錄, highlighted by her Olympic gold-medal-performances in 2012 和 2016. She hasn’t lost in the ring since 2012, 什麼時候 薩凡納·馬歇爾 (英國) won on points, 14-8, at the World Championships in China.

 

 

 

USA Boxing came into my life as a two-time Junior Olympic champion,” Claressa explained her USA Boxing relationship. “The help from USA Boxing was so important: just noticing me as a young athlete and knowing I would be a strong young woman to represent the USA in the future; 會議 Julie Goldsticker, who was a blessing for me as she helped me with a lot as a teenager, and just having Coach Abdullah, 教練 阿爾·米切爾, and coach Gloria Peek teach me different styles and how to use all my attributes. USA Boxing blessed me with a lot of knowledge and life-long friendships with all my Olympic teammates and Olympic coaches. My favorite coach, 科羅馬, literally was with me the whole way through 2015-2016, helping me outside the ring with advice and inside the ring.

 

 

 

Shields is one of the driving forces in women’s boxing today, carrying the torch handed off by American female boxing pioneers such as 克里斯蒂·馬丁, 萊拉·阿里 and a few others.

 

 

 

There is great change going on right now — 我, 邁卡拉邁耶, Franchon Crews, 凱蒂·泰勒, 阿曼達·塞拉諾 and a few other women are carrying the torch for women’s boxing right now,” Shields explained. “Progress has been fast, every network has had a women’s fight on television this year, especially Showtime, on which I have boxed the main event four times. Women’s boxing can go far. I believe the day will come when we can be paid millions just like men.

 

 

 

By opening doors and breaking down obstacles, Claressa has become a true role model for youngsters all over, in and out of boxing.

 

 

 

It feels good to be a role model for them (females), and also for so many male boxers,” Shields noted. “Boxing is in a different era and I just want to make it easier for girls coming up, so when they turn pro, boxing will be closer to equality.

 

 

 

Claressa has one of the greatest stories in the history of amateur boxing,” 說 克里斯tofflemire, 美國拳擊校友會執行董事. “Her drive, commitment, talent, and character made her a USA Boxing and Olympic champion, leaving a legacy that will last for a very long time. She is a trailblazer for women’s boxing and has established her place as one of the most influential USA Boxing Alumni members of all time. The USA Boxing Alumni Association wants to thank her for inspiring the amateur boxing community and serving as a great role model for the next generation of champions.

Despite all the honors and accolades, she has so richly received, Shields hasn’t forgotten where it all started, and she’s still actively involved in USA Boxing.

 

 

 

I keep in contact with a lot of the female athletes and give them advice if they ask me,” Claressa added. “I also went to Colorado for five days to be a motivator and keynote speaker for the Next Olympic Hopeful. After my career is over in about 15 歲月, I want to be a boxing trainer and lead the women’s team to more Olympic gold medals, if given the opportunity. I also want to be a school teacher and a counselor for youth.

 

 

 

希爾茲, 可惜, is unable to attend this Friday night’s Hall of Fame reception because she’s in deep training for her titles defense this Saturday evening on HBO, live from the StubHub Center in Carson, 加利福尼亞州, 針對 Fenmke Hermans (9-1).

 

 

 

“可悲的是,” Shields concluded, “I can’t be there but, if I was there, I would say: Thank you to USA Boxing for believing in me at the age of 16. It was an honor to represent America, not only once but two times in the Olympics! I thank Coach 比利 (Walsh) for making me dig deep, by having to deal with his Irish ways and jokes, also for changing the culture of USA Boxing. A special thank you to coach Kay, also, I can’t count on my hands how many days we trained at 1 上午, how many times I knocked on his room door and ran, how many times he has had to take my phone from me because I was crying or having a family problem. He is the coach I could tell everything to, and he also blessed me with his boxing knowledge and made me always feel secure in myself when he was in the corner. USA Boxing isn’t just staffUSA Boxing is family! Even though I’ve had a few words with Matthew Johnson and other staff, I thank them for being hard on me and making sure I handled my responsibilities. Love to all USA Boxing staff, I’m truly thankful.

 

 

 

Claressa Shields is much more than world and Olympian champion, she’s a class act as well, exactly what’s so desperately needed today.
