J Russell Peltz reflects on his favorite fights in Atlantic City

Peltz is the matchmaker for 24 helmikuu card at The Showboat Hotel featuring Thomas LaManna and Gabriel Bracero

ATLANTIC CITY – Helmikuu 20, 2018Boxing in Atlantic City has been prevalent for more than 45 vuotta. One man who has been in the center of a lot of the action on the boardwalk has been International Boxing and Atlantic City Boxing Hall-of-Fame promoter and matchmaker J Russell Peltz.

The Philadelphia legend, who has promoted scores of cards in the shore town, is making matches for the Helmikuu 24 card at The Showboat Hotel that will feature Thomas “Cornflake” LaManna vs. Gabriel “Tito” Bracero in a 10-round battle for the WBC Fecarbox Welterweight championship.

I did my first fight in 1973,said Peltz, who has run shows in just about every property in Atlantic City.

It is only fitting that Peltz is the matchmaker with promoter Rising Star Promotions in the South Jersey based promotional outfit’s effort to bring Atlantic City back to prominence as the the premier fight destination on the East Coast.

Peltz is hoping LaManna-Bracero is added to the memorable bouts that Peltz has been involved in Atlantic City:

1. Elokuu 31, 1981 at The Sands HotelFrank Fletcher vs Ernie Singletary.(PRISM)

The fight was televised by local cable channel PRISM (Jim Barniak and Bob Wright, both deceased, did the commentary) and it was for Fletcher’s USBA middleweight title.

This was the most brutal fight I ever saw, even more brutal than Matthew Saad Muhammad-Marvin Johnson I. This was a closet classic since few saw it on PRISM. The fight was toe-to-toe for seven rounds, no knockdowns, until ringside doctor stopped it between the seventh and eighth round. They could have fought this one in a phone booth.

Singletary was taken to hospital after fight.

“Myöhemmin, when we couldn’t find Fletcher, we broke into his hotel room, and he was out cold on the floor. We couldn’t get an ambulance so we (Marty Feldman and I) put him in the back of a police wagon and rode with him to the hospital where the doctor told us if we hadn’t found him he would have been dead.

Singletary kept saying in the pre-fight buildup that no 12-2 TV fighter was gonna beat him. This was a reference to Fletcher getting into the first ESPN tournament and winning while Singletary had been plying his trade for years (24-2 sitten) and never got that kind of exposure, just on PRISM. Todella, Fletcher already had been on NBC once, beating Norberto Sabater.

2. Syyskuu 9, 1980 from ResortsMike Rossman vs. Al Bolden (PRISM)

Ex-WBA light-heavyweight Rossman was getting beat up every round for 8 1/2 rounds against Al Bolden, of Pittsburgh, PA, and finally found a little light late in round 9 and came on to knock Bolden out at 2:32 of the 10th round and salvage the win. Bolden took the second knockdown in the 10th on his knees.

3. Maaliskuu 13, 1983 from Resorts–Jeff Chandler – Gaby Canizalez (ABC)

“Jeff Chandler, in the most brilliant performance of his Hall-of-Fame career out-boxed, out-punched and out-muscled future champion Gaby Canizales, of Texas, yli 15 rounds to defend his WBA bantamweight title for the seventh time by unanimous decision. No one thought he could stand up under Canizalesbody attack but it was Chandler’s body and head attack that kept Canizales at bay for the entire fight. Just magnificent.

4. Maaliskuu 2, 1985 from the Sands HotelGary Hinton vs Aaron Pryor (ABC)

Unknown lefty Gary Hinton gave IBF 140 pound world champ Aaron Pryor all he could handle, but a 14th-round knockdown helped Pryor gain a 15-round split decision with Sylvester Stallone in attendance. He was our partner at the time with Pryor. It was Pryor’s last successful title defense.

5. Marraskuu 19, 2011 from BallysGarrett Wilson vs. Chuck Mussachio

Moving from light heavyweight to cruiserweight, Mussachio appeared to have out-boxed Wilson for 11 rounds in their USBA cruiserweight title fight, but Wilson drilled Mussachhio with a monstrous overhand right 41 seconds into the 12th round for the knockout win.

Besides LaManna vs. Bracero, a terrific undercard has been assembled featuring undefeated fighters: light-heavyweight Frederick Julan (8-0, 6 KOs), Brooklyn, New York; super middleweight Darren Goodall (5-0, 4 KOs), New Milford, NJ; middleweight Omar Kabary Salem (1-0), Brooklyn, New York; super lightweight Jahmal Dyer (4-0, 2 KOs), Baltimore, MD.

Heralded Prospect Ruben Villa Remains Undefeated with Unanimous Decision this Past Friday Night in Ontario, Kalifornia

PHILADELPHIA, PENN./ORANGE, Kalifornia. (Helmikuu. 19, 2017)- Heralded prospect Ruben Villa (10-0, 4 KOs) of Salinas, Kalifornia. made it ten straight wins to start his career by outpointing veteran Juan Sandoval (15-18, 5 KOs) Meksikon. Scores: 59-55, 60-54 kahdesti.
The bout was the co-feature this past Perjantai night at the Doubletree Hotel in Ontario, Kalifornia.

Villa, 20, capitalized on his southpaw stance by landing a strong jab and countering with a right hook that routinely found its mark. Sandoval often looked confused and never managed to find any angles against the busier Villa.
I just tried to keep the pressure on him from start to finish,” said Villa, who is co-promoted by Banner Promotions and Thompson Boxing. “I think he fought a cautious fight, but I was still able to land a lot of punches in every round.
Villa was most impressive in the fourth and fifth rounds when he delivered numerous sets of combinations that stunned the taller Sandoval. While Villa kept his unbeaten streak alive perjantaina yö, another, less recognizable streak ended. In his previous unanimous decision wins, Villa had won every round on every scorecard. Perjantaina yö, one judge failed to give Villa all six rounds (59-55).
That streak was bound to end sooner or later,” Villa said. “I’ll have to start another one.
Once again Ruben had a terrific outing perjantaina yö,” sanoi Banner Kampanjat presidentti, Artie Pelullo.
Ruben continues his progression and development, and we are extremely pleased at where he is at. 2018 is going to be a big year for Ruben, as we will see him fight for some regional titles in the next 12-18 kuukautta.”
Ruben looked impressive yet again against a veteran opponent,” said Ken Thompson, presidentti Thompson Nyrkkeily. “Ruben is developing and maturing quicker than we anticipated. He’ll be back in the ring very soon.

He’ll put up a good fight and I’m pretty sure he’s got some veteran tactics he’ll try to use in there. I’ll use my youth and skills to come out on top.

HUMBERTOTITOVELAZCO SCORES SENSATIONAL KNOCKOUT IN EL PASO, TX


Kuva Mario Serrano – Prince Ranch Nyrkkeily
Aguascalientes, MX (Helmikuu 19, 2018) – Kulunut Lauantai, Don Haskins Center El Paso, TX, sokeri Kampanjat light-heavyweight prospect, Humberto “Tito” Velazco (19-1-1, 14 KOs), scored the knockout of the night, vastaan Thomas “Pomo” Williams Jr. (20-4, 14 KOs).
Velazco, who hails from Aguascalientes, Meksiko, rallied from an early first round knockdown, which was more of an off-balance circumstance. Velazco wasn’t hurt and evened the score in the second round with his own knockdown, catching Williams with a short right to the face, a punch he didn’t see coming. Williams survived the round but was walking on wobbly legs. Now in a rhythm, Velazco’s timing was on point as he sent Williams to the deck for the second time in round three, this time hurting him badly with combination of punches. Williams survived once again only to be stopped in round four when Velazco, a heavy-handed southpaw, blasted him with a straight left, forcing the referee to stop the bout at the 1:37 merkki.
It was a great feeling to get a knockout in my first fight in the united states,” said Humberto Velazco, joka hallinnoi Greg Hannley of Prince Ranch Boxing. “When I got up from the knockdown I wasn’t hurt, but it definitely woke me up. When I dropped Williams, Tiesin, että hän oli loukkaantunut, but the round ended. I knew I had to step it up and I got him out of there. I’m ready to fight all the big names at light-heavyweight and super-middleweight. Adonis Stevenson, Sergei Kovalev, Dmitry Bivol ja Artur Beterbiev are at the top. I want their belts, so they are on my target list.
A genetic freak, Velaszco stands slightly over 6″1, and has a rare combination of speed and power. His athletic pedigree runs in the family as his brother is a professional basketball player.
When I first saw Velazco in the gym, I knew he was something special,” sanoi Oscar Vazquez, CEO of Sugar Promotions. “He has great feet for a big man and showed he can bang with the best of them. I’m very grateful to the folks at PBC, who gave us the opportunity to fight on this card. I believe Velazco will be the next big star to come out of Mexico.
Velazco is a super athletic fighter with a great personality.said Prince Ranch Boxing’s Greg Hannley. “His final knockdown was amazing. We have big plans for Tito and everyone on boxing will know his name soon.
Velazco vs. Williams Jr. was showcased on the PBC card headlined by Victor Ortiz vs. Devon Alexander. Look for Velaszco to be back in the ring by summer, most likely in his hometown of Aguascalientes, Meksiko.

LAS VEGAS (Helmikuu. 17, 2018) – Entinen kahden divisioonan maailmanmestari Danny Garcia palasi kostolla, tyrmäsi Brandon Riosin WBC:n keskisarjan tittelin eliminaattorissa SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXINGin päätapahtumassa Lauantai SHOWTIMElla Mandalay Bay Events Centeristä Las Vegasissa.
Paluu ensimmäistä kertaa sen jälkeen, kun hän teki läheisen eropäätöksen Keith Thurmanille keskisarjan maailmanmestaruusottelussa maaliskuussa. 2017, Garcia muistutti faneja asemastaan ​​nyrkkeilyn eliittissä 147 puntaa varhaisen ehdokkaan kanssa 2018 Knockout of the Year.
Garcia (34-1, 20 KOs) teki parhaansa kehän keskellä, jossa hän pystyi nyrkkeilemään etäältä ja torjumaan Rios’ raivoissaan vauhdissa. Rios, joka palasi sisään 2017 lyhyeltä eläkkeeltä, oli tehokkain köysiä vastaan, missä hän vaikeutti Garciaa jatkuvalla painostuksellaan ja suosikkiasellaan – leveä yläoikea.
Yhdeksännellä kierroksella taistelulla missä Garcia halusi – renkaan keskellä – Philadelphialainen laskeutui valtavan vastarin leukaan, joka sai Riosin selälleen. Rios voitti määrän, mutta oli selvästi horjumassa jaloillaan, Pakottaen erotuomarin Kenny Baylessin keskeyttämään kilpailun klo 2:25 yhdeksännestä.
“Tunsin, että rengas ruostui hieman alussa,” Said Garcia, joka teki uransa 20. pudotuksen. “Hän on hyvä sisätaistelija ja hän antoi minulle hyviä lyöntejä. Tuntui hyvältä, se oli hyvät yhdeksän kierrosta. Hän tuli taistella. Tulin nyrkkeilemään, tein tuon. Tulin nappaamaan, ja annoin faneille mitä he halusivat – tyrmäys.
“Huomasin juuri, kun sain lyöntejäni pois, hän seisoi aivan edessäni ja annoin sen mennä. Heti kun sain taistelun keskellä kehää haluamaani kohtaan, sain hyviä laukauksia. Olin vain päästänyt käsistäni irti ja lyönti osui.”
Taistelun jälkeen, SHOWTIME Urheilutoimittaja Jim Gray kysyi Garcialta, kuinka menetys Thurmanille vaikutti häneen.
“Tappio oli kova. Minulla on voittajan ajattelutapa,” Garcia sanoi. “Inhoan häviämistä. Otin sen kuin todellinen mestari ja palasin takaisin kuin todellinen mestari.
“Haluaisin uusintaottelun Keith Thurmanin kanssa. Se on hänestä kiinni. Aina kun hän on valmis, taistelemme.”
WBA- ja WBC-mestari Thurman ei ole Garcian ainoa mahdollinen menestys. Entinen keskisarjan mestari ja WBC:n n:o. 1 rankattu haastaja Shawn Porter suunnittelee massiivista välienselvittelyä entisten mestareiden välillä.
Taistelun jälkeen, Rios (34-4-1, 24 KOs) oli turhautunut keskeytykseen ja lupasi palata.
“Olen vihainen. En pidä tuollaisesta ulkoilusta,” Rios sanoi. “Olen soturi, Nousin takaisin ja halusin jatkaa. Luulen, että he lopettivat sen, mutta olen vihainen. Olen vihainen, koska nousin ylös.
“Minulla meni hyvin. Minusta tuli laiska pistoksen kanssa ja hän tuli oikealla kädellä ja sai minut kiinni. Olen soturi. Olen edelleen pelissä. En uskonut, että hän teki paljon satuttaakseen minua. Luulen, että se oli lähempänä kuin mitä hän luuli sen olevan. Hän sai minut vain onnekkaaseen lyöntiin. Olin valmis jatkamaan.”
Nyrkkeilyn nuorin maailmanmestari, David Benavidez, ei jättänyt kysymyksiä uusintaottelussa Ronald Gavrilin kanssa, puolustaa WBC:n superkeskisarjan maailmanmestaruutta hallitsevalla 12 kierroksen yksimielisellä päätöksellä Lauantain yhteisominaisuus SHOWTIMEssa.
21-vuotiaat Benavidez ja Gavril olivat taistelleet tiukkaan päätökseen yhdessä vuoden 2017 parhaista taisteluista, jolloin Benavidez putosi kankaalle ottelun viimeisellä minuutilla. 12th ja viimeinen kierros. Phoenix-syntyperällä ei ollut ongelmia välittömässä uusintaottelussa, käyttämällä jäykkää iskua ja tasaista yhdistelmälaukausten dieettiä voittaakseen Gavril-pelin lähes sulkemisen.
Benavidez (20-0, 17 KOs) uuvutti Gavrilia älykkään kehon hyökkäyksessä, lyömällä keskiosaa avataksesi voimalaukauksia ja töytöjä päähän. Benavidez teki parhaan kierroksensa neljännessä, yhdistää valtavan oikean yläleikkauksen, joka melkein peitti Gavrilin – jotka näyttivät pelastuneen köysien avulla – ja sitten iski sarja vahingollisia yhdistelmälaukauksia.
Benavidez näytti loukkaavan oikean kätensä taistelun toisella puoliskolla ja poistui kaasusta 10., 11päivä ja 12. Mutta Benavidez, kuka liittyi 41 prosenttia valtaansa laukausta, osui silti kovempiin laukauksiin ja käytti jäykkää vasenta lyöntiä pitääkseen Gavrilin suurelta osin loitolla.
“Tiesin, että hänestä tulee aggressiivinen. Hän on yhden tempun vastustaja,” Benavidez sanoi. “Tiesin, että voisin nyrkillä ja nyrkkeillä häntä koko päivän. Kun näin avauksen, otin sen. En kuitenkaan tyrmännyt häntä – hän on kova aseen poika.
“Molempiin käteni sattuu, mutta minulla on soturi mentaliteetti, joten jatkoin työntämistä.
“Haluan olla sarjan paras. Joten kenet he laittavat eteeni, sen haluan tehdä.”
Gavril (18-3, 14 KOs) ei keksinyt tekosyitä luopua toiminnantäyteisestä tapauksesta, joka tehtiin 119-109 ja 120-108 kahdesti.
“Hän yritti nyrkkeillä minua ulkopuolelta,” Gavril sanoi. “Se oli hyvä taistelu. Hän oli parempi mies tänä iltana. Mitä voin sanoa? Haluan palata kuntosalille ja tulla takaisin vahvempana.”
SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXINGin avausottelussa, Yordenis Ugas teki uransa suurimman voiton, tyrmäsi Ray Robinsonin IBF Welterweight Eliminatorin seitsemännellä kierroksella.
ugas (21-3, 10 KOs) omistaa nyt IBF:n numeron. 2 sija voittamattomalle mestarille Errol Spence Jr.
ugas, entinen amatööri erottuva, joka on nyt 6-0 siirtyessään 147 punnan luokkaan, asetti sävyn tyrmäyksellä avauskierroksen viimeisellä minuutilla. Robinson (24-3, 12 KOs) selviytyi ja myöhemmin vähennettiin piste kellon lyömisestä, kun neljäs erä päättyi. Laiton lyönti aiheutti odottamattoman Ugasin, joka pomppasi ja hallitsi edelleen myöhemmillä kierroksilla.
Seitsemännen avausminuutilla, 31-vuotias Ugas laskeutui massiiviselle oikealle, joka peitti Robinsonin, joka löi laskun, mutta loukkaantui selvästi. Ugas päästi valloilleen hyökkäyksen sarjalla komboja, pakottaa erotuomari Robert Byrdin astumaan väliin ja pysäyttämään kilpailun klo 1:05 Robinsonin kanssa puolustuskyvyttömänä köysiä vastaan.
Ugas laskeutui 51 prosenttia hänen voimalaukauksistaan ​​ja oli mukavasti kaikkien kolmen tuomarin edellä pysäytyshetkellä.
“Minusta tuntui, että olin ylivoimaisesti vahvempi taistelija, eikä hän satuttanut minua,” sanoi Ugas. “Hän menetti pisteen lyömisestäni kellon soidessa, ja kaatoi minut alas, mutta sekään ei haitannut minua. Hän oli hyvin kömpelö ja hänen tyylinsä tyrmäsi ajoitukseni.
“Onneksi sain laukauksia, joiden tiesin vahingoittavan häntä. Pystyin sanelemaan vauhtia, eikä meillä koskaan ollut ongelmia.
“Haluan Errol Spencen seuraavaksi. Kaikki haluavat Errolin.”
