16-YEAR-OLD JOHNNY “NICCO” TAPIA STRIVES TO FOLLOW IN HIS LEGENDARY DAD’S FOOTSTEPSAS HE MAKES HIS AMATEUR BOXING DEBUTON HIS MOM TERESA’S FIGHT CARD
Lørdag, November. 20, 2021, IN MESCALERO, NEW MEXICO
Youngest son of late Hall of Famer Johnny Tapia to fight on the preliminary portionof Tapia Promotions’Barriere vs. Af Løve:"Den sidste stand" (Den sidste stand) levefra Inn of the Mountain Gods Resort & Kasino
ALBUQUERQUE, N.m. (November. 13, 2021)– While countless high school juniors concern themselves with standardized test scores and submitting college applications, Johnny “Nicco” Tapia, the youngest son and namesake of the late five-time world champion, will commence his pursuit of a pro boxing career when he makes his amateur debut on the preliminary portion of his Mom Teresa’sMarco Antonio Barrera vs. Daniel Ponce de Leonpay-per-view fight card Saturday, November. 20, 2021.
“Boxing is a passion,” said the 16-year-old currently working toward earning his diploma online. “I love stepping into the ring, getting hit, and feeling the crowd’s energy.”
In the Nov. 20 main event, two Mexican boxing legends will lace up the gloves for one final night when Hall of FamerMarco Antonio Barrera(67-7, 44 KOS) vender tilbage til ringen for kun anden gang i mere end et årti for at kæmpe mod tidligere to gange verdensmesterDaniel Ponce de Leon (45-7, 35 KOS). The six-round super welterweight exhibition and four additional bouts will air live on pay per view from Inn of the Mountain Gods Resort & Kasino i Mescalero, New Mexico.
FITE PPVand Golden Boy Fight Night on Facebook Watch Paid Online will televise the five-bout main card live on pay per view for$9.99 på4:30 p.m. PT /5:30 p.m. MT/7:30 p.m. OG
A native of Las Cruces, N.M., Nicco trains in the Tapia home garage, enjoys studying sociology to “look at people from a different perspective,” dislikes mathematics, and currently has no plans to further an academic career following his 2023 graduation.
“I don’t really plan to go to college,” said the music fan who freestyle raps in his downtime. “I want to keep pushing myself in the ring and turn pro as soon as I get enough experience.”
Surrounded by the sweet science from an early age, Nicco fondly looks back on innumerable heartwarming memories of watching his father train for upcoming fights.
“I used to go to the gym and run around with my Dad every day. When the bell rang, I held up the gloves with him.”
Outside of boxing, the father-son pairing spent quality time playing other sports, enjoying delicious desserts, and tuning into their favorite television programs.
“We used to go to the park, play basketball, and jump on the trampoline,” Nicco recalled. “Dad used to give me ice cream sandwiches. I remember going into his room and watching the show ‘Cops’ together.”
Aiming to find inspiration and discover boxing tips from one of boxing’s all-time greatest fighters, young Nicco frequently rewatches Johnny’s classic bouts.
“I study his speed, head movement, and angles,” said the teenager who models much of his fighting style after his Dad and Marvelous Marvin Hagler.
When asked to name his favorite “Mi Vida Loca” fight, Nicco did not hesitate in listing Johnny Tapia’s hard-fought victory over fellow Albuquerquean and former world champion Danny Romero for the IBF/WBO junior bantamweight titles on July 18, 1997, i Las Vegas, Nev.
“The crowd was wild and crazy,” Nicco recollected. “I love studying my Dad’s boxing technique.”
Originally scheduled to fight at Inn of the Mountain Gods on July 31, 2021, the aspiring actor and former viola player pulled out of his amateur debut when he sustained a hand fracture.
“I was playing football with friends and landed on my hand wrong,” lamented the proud holder of a driver’s license. “It was the first time I injured myself.”
Less than four months later, Nicco is eager to thrill the Mescalero crowd on Nov. 20 before Barrera and De Leon take center stage.
“I am ticking off the days and can’t wait for this night to come.”
Kicking off the festivities, Golden Boy Fight Night på Facebook WatchFacebook.com/GoldenBoyFNand FITE will stream Nicco Tapia’s debut and four additional outstanding preliminary bouts forfri kl 2 p.m. PT/3 p.m. MT/5 p.m. OG.

C-Cris "Cyborg"(25-2, 1 NC) besejret #5-Sinead Kavanagh (7-5) via KO (strejker) på 1:32 af runde én Cris “Cyborg:" “I didn’t do anything we planned. You never know. I had a feeling about the fight. Jeg føler stor. I am happy with the win.” “I knew she was more of a striker, so I went to the ground game. The right hand did it fast and was the key. I was very excited for the count.” “I really appreciate Kayla Harrison coming to the fight. If she wants to fight me one day, that would be great.” #6-Linton Vassell (22-8, 1 NC) besejret #5-Tyrell Fortune (11-2, 1 NC) via split beslutning (29-28, 28-29, 29-28)
Linton Vassell: “I am happy that I was able to out grapple a wrestler considering I’m from the U.K. and I have no wrestling background” “I give myself a good 7. I am not 100 percent happy with my performance, but I am super happy with the outcome.” “I was able to reverse him (Tyrell Fortune), get on top of him, and add some damage.” “I used to watch WWE. When I first started to train, I did wrestling moves like that.” “I always feel like we’re our own worst enemies. I wanted a knockout.” “Tyrell was so strong and powerful. There were a few times where he just stood up and shook me off.” “I went for the submission. I just carried on and tried to wear him down but couldn’t do it.”
#6-Aaron Pico (9-3) besejret #8-Justin Gonzales (12-1) via enstemmig afgørelse (30-27, 30-27, 30-26) Aaron Pico: “I knew going into the fight that he (Justin Gonzales) was going to be a tough fighter. He is a former wrestler. One thing about us wrestlers is we don’t quit. All my coaches knew he was going to be tough.” “He was just holding on to me and is really strong. When people hold on to you, it’s kind of hard to get strikes.” “Thank God I walked out of here relatively healthy. I’m just happy I got my full paycheck.” “It is the first time I’ve gone three rounds. It’s my first decision. I need the experience. I’m happy I got the win.” “I knew I was the dominant performer, but I have to get better. I am just so hard on myself. I want to finish guys.” “Let’s go back to the drawing board. Once I step out of this cage, it’s going to be a whole different ballgame. I have to get prepared for the next opponent, so let’s get to work.”
“I am my own worst critic. It wasn’t the performance that we trained for, or that I was hoping for.” “I felt my first right hand land and then just went head hunting with my hands. I was respecting her take downs.” “I feel like I’m such a well-rounded fighter now. I didn’t showcase any of that. I didn’t hit the ground though.” “You know what is not next? Retirement. Jeg er 38. Old girls rule. Retirement is nowhere near on the horizon. I’m No. 1 in the division. It is only up from here.” “I’m heading home to Australia. I haven’t been home in six months. I haven’t seen my kids, my partner, min familie, mine venner. I’m just going to go home and enjoy the rest of the year. I’ll just enjoy some family time.” “Pam Sorenson is a tough girl. She tried to take me down. I went head hunting and really wanted the knockout. I am convinced that I did enough to win the fight.”

ALBUQUERQUE, N.m. (November. 12, 2021)– From overcoming a crime-ridden, west Texas childhood environment to his father’s incarceration and living out of a car as a teenager, the path toward fighting three-time world title challenger Victor Zaleta on Tapia Promotions’Marco Antonio Barrera vs. Daniel Ponce de Leonpay-per-view card Saturday, November. 20, 2021, has been anything but smooth sailing for the undefeated El Paso boxer Abel Mendoza.
“I was surrounded by violence growing up,” said the 25-year-old lightweight contender who is 30-0 med 23 KOS. “A lot of people that I was around went to prison; I was the only one who didn’t. Boxing was my way out, my safe haven. The sport saved me.”
In the Nov. 20 main event, two Mexican boxing legends will lace up the gloves for one final night when Hall of FamerMarco Antonio Barrera(67-7, 44 KOS) vender tilbage til ringen for kun anden gang i mere end et årti for at kæmpe mod tidligere to gange verdensmesterDaniel Ponce de Leon (45-7, 35 KOS).

After initially lacing up the gloves at four years old and capturing the Regional Silver Gloves at age eight in Odessa, Texas, the Fort Stockton native secured five titles while defeating all but 20 sin 300 amateur boxing opponents.
Men, numerous obstacles have beset Abel on his road toward achieving he and his father’s goal of the young fighter becoming a world champion.
“My Dad got into some trouble at the beginning of my boxing career,” Abel said. “He was on house arrest and then went to jail for a while. It was an extremely difficult time for my family.”
While still in high school, the 17-year-old Mendoza often slept in his vehicle after moving from Odessa to El Paso to become a professional boxer.
“That was a point in my career when I was homeless,” the aspiring titleholder recalled. “I was surrounded by a lot of violence and crime in Odessa and left because I wanted a fresh start. Sometimes I had to stay in my car.”
Never one to shy away from strenuous manual labor, Mendoza’s first job consisted of unearthing fruit in a Pecos, Texas, field with his grandfather at age 13.
“It was summer, and we picked cantaloupes in the hot sun all day,” said the multi-faceted student who is currently taking psychology classes at Odessa College. “That was the year I first won Nationals. I still trained while working in the fields. It was the best and the worst.”
Recalling the arduous memories when he did not know where he would sleep or locate his next meal, the Native American history fan finds solace in giving back to the El Paso community during the holiday season.
“I love to help out at shelters because I have been in that situation where I needed food and a place to stay,” said Santa’s helper who also hands out gifts at west Texas hospitals each December. “It makes me feel good to see the children smile.”
Hoping to battle for a world crown within the next year, the never-married Mendoza counsels the wedded on social media when not honing his skills in the squared circle.
“I go on Instagram Live because people ask me for marriage advice. A lot of people need help.”

BELGRADE, Serbien (November 4, 2021) — Team USA’s impressive 2021 Elite Men’s World Championships will continue into the finals, as four boxers won their semifinal bouts to advance to their championship bout.
Flyweight Roscoe Hill (Forår, Texas) kicked off the evening session for Team USA in dominating fashion over his opponent, Akhtem Zakirov, of the Russian Boxing Federation. Hill used his height to his full advantage over Zakirov to take all five judges’ cards every round. Hill will face the 2020 Olympic bronze medalist and 2019 World Championships bronze medalist Saken Bibossinov of Kazakhstan on Saturday.
The American will look to become the first American male featherweight World Champion since Rau’shee Warren accomplished the feat in 2007. Hill is also the first World Championships flyweight male medalist since 2011, when Warren won silver.
Jahmal Harvey (Oxon Hill, Md.) picked up his fourth win of these World Championships to secure his spot in the featherweight finals. Harvey, who was facing 2020 Olympian Samuel Kisohurry of France, began the bout extremely strong, taking all five judges’ cards at the end of the round. The American did not slow down in the second, taking all five cards again to have a comfortable lead heading into the final round.
Even with a 3-2 final round in favor of Kisohurry, the 18-year-old American claimed the unanimous decision to set up a final against 2020 Olympian Serik Temirzhanov of Kazakhstan on Saturday.
Rahim Gonzales (Las Vegas, Nev.) closed out the evening session with what may end up being the bout of the whole World Championships. Gonzales was faced with the tough task of taking to the ring with Serbia’s own Vladimir Mironchikov.
After seeing the first round go in favor of Mironchikov, 4-1, Gonzales came back strong in the second round, taking the round 3-2. With the bout on the line, the American light heavyweight did not back down and left it all in the ring to grab all five judges’ cards and the final decision, 3-2. Gonzales, who has earned just the fourth light heavyweight World Championship medal since 1974 and first medalists since Michael Simms gold in 1999, will step into the ring on Saturday with Aliaksei Alfiorau of Belarus.
Welterweight Omari Jones (Orlando, Fla.) was scheduled to go head-to-head against Georgia’s Lasha Guruli in the first session of the day, dog, Guruli pulled out of the competition due to injury, advancing Jones to the finals against 2020 Olympian Sewonrets Okazawa of Japan, i morgen.
Jones is now guaranteed either a silver or gold medal in his World Championships debut and becomes the first American male to win a welterweight World Championships medal since Demetrius Andrade won gold in 2007.
Jones will compete in tomorrow’s first day of finals, while Harvey, Hill and Gonzales will take to the ring on Saturday. Click here to follow all the action.

STAPLES Center i Los Angeles
Billetter til salg nu!
LOS ANGELES (November 3, 2021) - Ubesejret femdobbelt verdensmester og boksningens hotteste attraktionGervonta "Tank" Davis vil forsvare sit WBA letvægtsmesterskab mod hårdtslåendeIsaac "Pitbull" Cruz søndag, December 5 live på SHOWTIME PPV fra STAPLES Center i Los Angeles i en Premier Boxing Champions-begivenhed.
Cross, rangeret Nej. 2 i IBF, træder ind for at erstatte Rolando Romero.
Billetter til live event, som promoveres af Mayweather Promotions, GTD-kampagner og TGB-kampagner, er til salg nu, og kan købes påAXS.com.
Davis' tredje lige pay-per-view hovedattraktion vil se ham kæmpe mod den hårdføre Cruz, der med rette har fået tilnavnet "Pitbull" i løbet af sin professionelle karriere.
"Dette bliver en fantastisk kamp på SHOWTIME PPV,” sagde Leonard Ellerbe, CEO for Mayweather Promotions. “Isaac Cruz var klar til denne store mulighed, og jeg forventer, at han kommer klar til at levere sit livs kamp. Men, Gervonta Davis er et generationstalent, der kun bliver bedre. Denne kamp vil ende på spektakulær vis den 5. december.”
“Kudos til Isaac Cruz for at træde ind som erstatningsmodstander i et højtryk, pay-per-view-kamp mod en af de klareste stjerner inden for boksning i Gervonta Davis,sagde Tom Brown, Formand for TGB Promotions. "Cruz præsenterer en anden, og nogle vil hævde en sværere udfordring til Tank Davis. Cruz vil ikke trække sig tilbage, og han vil bringe kampen til Davis fra åbningsklokken. Vi har alle set Gervontas blanding af fremragende bokseevner og eksplosiv kraft, og vi ved, hvad han er i stand til. Det vil være den uimodståelige kraft versus den ubevægelige genstand, hvilket betyder fyrværkeri på STAPLES Center og på SHOWTIME PPV søndag, 5. december.''
Davis (25-0, 24 KOS), stjerne i Mayweather Promotions-stalden, tilføjede endnu en præstation fyldt med højdepunkter i juni, da han stoppede tidligere ubesejrede Mario Barrios for at erobre en titel på 140 pund og blive verdensmester i tre divisioner. Baltimore-indfødte erobrede sit letvægtsmesterskab med en 12th-runde knockout af den tidligere mester Yuriorkis Gamboa i december 2019.
“Jeg respekterer Isaac Cruz for at gå op og tage kampen, men alle ved hvad jeg laver,"Sagde Davis. "Jeg kommer ind på udkig efter knockouten, og det er præcis, hvad jeg vil gøre i denne kamp. Jeg er tilbage i Los Angeles, hvor stjernerne skinner, og jeg har tænkt mig at tænde op mod Isaac Cruz i STAPLES Center den 5. december.''
Den 23-årige Cruz (22-1-1, 15 KOS) vil forsøge at hærde Davis og få ham til at arbejde overarbejde, hvis han ønsker at komme afsted med sejren. En indfødt i Mexico City, Cruz skød op i letvægtsranglisten 2020, annoncerede sin tilstedeværelse med en elektrificerende knockout i første runde over veteranen Diego Magdaleno i september. Cruz fulgte det op 2021 ved at vinde en enstemmig afgørelse over tidligere ubesejrede Matías Romero i marts, og senest besejrede den tidligere mester Francisco Vargas ved afgørelse i juni. Siden han lavede sin U.S. debut i december 2019, den 23-årige er gået ubesejret i sine næste fire ringoptrædener, optrådte på SHOWTIME tre gange ud over at have slået Magdaleno på Gervonta Davis vs. Leo Santa Cruz SHOWTIME PPV underkort.
"Først vil jeg gerne takke Gervonta Davis og hans team for denne mulighed - en mulighed jeg ikke vil lade gå forbi mig," sagde Cruz. "Hvis Gud vil, bliver jeg verdensmester i december 5. Denne kamp er en meget stor motivation for mig som professionel og som et personligt mål. Jeg er sikker efter december 5 alle i boksning vil kende navnet Isaac 'Pitbull' Cruz.''
