”Argentiinalainen Lomachenko’ Alberto Melian taistelee ensimmäisestä ammattinimikkeestä toisessa taistelussa
|
Päällä Lauantai, Maaliskuu 17, the “Argentiinalainen Lomachenko,” kaksinkertainen olympialainen Alberto “Vaikutus” Melian, haastaa ensimmäisen ammattitodistuksensa vasta toisessa ammattitaistelussaan.
Taistelee kotikaupungissaan Villa Dolores, Cordoba, Argentiina, Melian (1-0, 1 KO) ottaa Argentiinan Super Bantamweight -mestarin Javier Aristulen (32-8, 16 KOs) yli 10 kierrosta.
Tapahtuma, esitteli Sampson Boxing yhteistyössä Tello Boxin ja JEB Boxingin kanssa, ja oikeutettu “Olympialaisten yö,” mukana on myös lupaava entinen olympialainen Alberto “Olla” Palmetta (6-1, 2 KOs) ja se lähetetään suorana TyC Sportsin ja VTV Uruguayn kautta (saatavana teräväpiirtona) koko Latinalaisessa Amerikassa, Yhdysvallat ja Karibia.
Useat asiantuntijat pitävät sitä viime vuosikymmenen parhaana argentiinalaisena amatöörinyrkkeilijänä, Melian edusti Argentiinaa lukuisissa kansainvälisissä turnauksissa, mukaan lukien hänen kaksinkertainen olympialaiset, Lontoon olympialaisissa 2012 ja Rio de Janeiro sisään 2016.
Ensimmäisen maailmanmestaruuskilpailijan Diego Ricardo Santillanin pudottamisen jälkeen debyyttinsä viidennellä kierroksella (joka tuli kehään klo 23-2), Melian otti vastaan Aristulen haasteen, joka oli läsnä kehällä. Melian hyväksyi haasteen, mutta pyysi Aristulea asettamaan kansallisen arvonsa linjalle.
Melianin erinomaisista amatöörivoitoista olivat voitot Kuuban olympiavoittajasta Robeisy Ramirezista ja ranskalaisesta Khedafi Djelkhiristä, Olympic hopeamitalisti Pekingissä 2008 ja APB-sarjan maailmanmestari. Sisään 2014, hänelle myönnettiin “Kultainen Firpo” maan parhaimpana nyrkkeilijänä, amatööri tai ammattilainen, Argentiinan nyrkkeilyjournalistiliitto (UPERBOX).
Palmetta, entinen kapteeni Argentiinan olympiajoukkueessa, joka osallistui Rio de Janeiron olympialaisiin 2016, palaa kehään sen jälkeen, kun kärsi ensimmäisen tappionsa ammattilaisena taistelussa, joka oli dominoinut korteilla Gonzalo Coriaa vastaan.

HOUSTON, Texas – Legacy Fighting Alliance (LFA) CEO Ed Soares announced today that the LFA will return to California in March with a bantamweight world title fight and a high-stakes featherweight war.
Päätapahtuma LFA 36 will feature the return of LFA bantamweight champion Ricky Simon when he defends his title against LFA #1 bantamweight contender Vinicius “Don” Zani. LFA 36 – Simon vs. Zani takes place Perjantai, March 23rd at the Morongo Outdoor Pavilion at the Morongo Casino, Lomakeskus & Spa in Cabazon, Kalifornia. Koko pääkortille televisioidaan suorana ja valtakunnallisesti AXS television 10 p.m. JA / 7 p.m. PT.
“I’m excited to bring an LFA title fight to Coachella Valley at LFA 36”, Totesi Soares. “This will be our third show in my home state of California. Morongo Casino, Lomakeskus & Spa is a beautiful 4-diamond establishment and we look forward to featuring our bantamweight world title fight at the world-class Morongo Outdoor Pavillion on March 23rd.”
Simon (11-1) returns tot he LFA Octagon after winning the vacant LFA bantamweight title in December in the main event of LFA 29. The fight served as the LFA’s final fight of 2017 and left fight fans and MMA pundits anxiously awaiting the next move of the wildly popular Pacific Northwesterner. Simon took home LFA gold by shutting down eight-time UFC vet Chico Camus with a bloody and dominant 5-round decision win. The title win stamped a career-year for the 25-year-old, which also saw him pick up a win a fight in front of UFC President Dana White on Week 5 of Dana White’s Tiistai Night Contender Series. Simon is now eager to defend his title instead of basking in the glow of 2017. He also wants to up the ante by taking on the clear cut #1 contender Vincius Zani.
Zani (11-4) will challenge the champion in one of the most anticipated title fights of 2018. Zani has been perfect since competing for the promotion. This started before the merger of RFA and Legacy FC, when he showcased his world-class Muay Thai skills in the co-main event of RFA 38. The Brazilian known as “Don Zani” defeated Joe Murphy that night with UFC President Dana White sitting cageside. Zani unleashed a barrage of leg kicks and other violent techniques that excited the crowd, while putting the division on notice. He would win his next two fights in LFA after the merger and has shown no signs of taking his foot off the pedal. In his last appearance in October, Zani defeated former RFA title challenger Joey Miolla via Unanimous Decision in the co-main event of LFA 24.
Co-päätapahtuma LFA 36 will feature the return of Jamall “Pretty Boy” Emmers (12-3). The powerful 28-year-old is one of the only people to have fought for LFA, RFA, and Legacy FC. He became the third fighter to complete this rare hat trick of promotional appearances when he co-headlined LFA 5 viime vuonna. Sinä yönä, Emmers lived up to the hype surrounding him after the praise he received from UFC President Dana White on Episode 7 of Dana White: Lookin’ for a Fight just a few months earlier. Emmers traveled to the high-altitude of Colorado and defeated the highly-touted Cory Sandhagen, who is now making waves in the UFC. Emmers hopes to shine once again and perhaps punch his own ticket to the UFC with a breakthrough performance at LFA 36.
Emmers will face Talison Soares (10-2), who is coming off a breakthrough performance of his own last month in the co-main event of LFA 30. The 29-year-old Brazilian prospect, who is a decorated BJJ black belt from the prestigious Checkmat academy, made his international debut against fellow top prospect and BJJ ace Fernando Padilla that night. He took full advantage of the opportunity and wowed the crowd by thoroughly out-grappling his heavily favored Mexican opponent. Soares now looks to keep the momentum moving in the right direction by defeating Emmers, who has won three straight fights since impressing the UFC boss at RFA 38. Soares knows a second straight impressive showing will catapult him to the top of what many consider LFA’s deepest division.

FOCUSED REGIS PROGRAIS UNDAUNTED BY CHANGE IN OPPONENT TO JULIUS INDONGO FOR INTERIM WBC SUPER LIGHTWEIGHT WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP FRIDAY, MAALISKUU 9 Live On SHOWTIME®
NÄYTTÖAIKA BOXING: SPECIAL EDITION Live At 10 p.m. JA/PT From Deadwood Mountain Grand in Deadwood, Etelä-Dakota
HOUSTON (Helmikuu. 15, 2018) – Undefeated 140-pound contender Regis “Rougarou” Prograis remains focused on the prize despite the recent change in opponent for his Maaliskuu 9 showdown for the Interim WBC Super Lightweight World Championship. Prograis will now face former unified world champion Julius Indongo in the 12-round main event of a SHOWTIME BOXING: SPECIAL EDITION live on SHOWTIME at 10 p.m. JA/PT from Deadwood Mountain Grand in Deadwood, Etelä-Dakota.
The southpaw Indongo replaced Viktor Postol, who was forced to withdraw from the bout maanantaina with a hand injury.
“Lou called and told me about what happened to Viktor Postol and that Indongo could be the new opponent and I said yes immediately,"Sanoi Prograis. “I always want to fight the best and with Indongo being a former unified champion, he brings a great deal of credibility to the fight. Both of his titles were won on the road in Russia and Scotland, so I know how fearless and determined he will be.
“I had to switch up my training a little for sparring with Indongo being a lefty and a little taller, but I’m sparring with middleweights. I’ve heard how hard he hits and I want to be fully prepared. Maybe down the line Postol and I could still fight, but I’m only focused on Indongo now. This is my time and my year to shine. I’m ready to put on a spectacular performance on Maaliskuu 9."
“This fight came together in a matter of two phone calls – one to Prograis and one to Indongo – and that speaks volumes about the championship mentality of both fighters,” said Lou DiBella, Presidentti Dibella Viihde. “Prograis wanted to fight the best fighter available, even if that fighter presented a different style and was recently a unified champion. Indongo immediately jumped at the opportunity to again be a champion. They are true professionals and their desire to fight will be evident in the ring.”
The event is presented by DiBella Entertainment, in association with Fight Promotions Inc., Holden Productions and Sauerland Promotions.

OHJELMAT (20-0, 17 KOs), Houston Poiketen New Orleans, has scored knockouts in 13 hänen viimeisen 14 fights and is a rising star in the wide-open 140-pound division. Indongo represents the toughest challenge of his career.
