2016 Olympic bronze medalist Nico Hernandez & Hungarian champion Jozsef Ajtai have taken different paths into pro ranks

“KO Night Boxing: khauta & finyellang khanya” bakeng sa
vacant IBA Americas flyweight title
Aug. 2 ka Hartman Arena ka Park City, KS
PARK TOROPO, Kansas (November 20, 2017) – USA Olympian and hometown hero Nico Hernandez and Hungarian flyweight champion József “Little Red” 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, Moqebelo bosiu, December 2, ka “KO Night Boxing: khauta & finyellang khanya” karete ya, ka Hartman Arena ka Park City, Kansas.
“KO Night Boxing: khauta & finyellang khanya” ke nehelano ea KO Night Boxing LLC., kamanong le Hartman Arena, le tšehetsoang ka karolo ka Twister City Harley-Davidson Metro likhomphutha, Mort’s Cigar Bar leJimmy’s Egg.
ketso tla rekotoa ho phela ka eona bakeng sa airing nakong e tlang ka CBS Sports Network.
The 21-year-old Hernandez (3-0, 2 Kos), loana tsoa Wichita, was a decorated amateur boxer who compiled a sterling 123-12 rekoto, highlighted by his bronze-medal winning performance at the 2016 Olympic Games a Brazil. 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, leha ho le joalo, will be his first title fight, coming in only his fourth pro bout.
Ajtai, eo e leng selemo se le seng 'me matsatsi a tšeletseng a le monyenyane ho 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 lan lintoa, 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 magadlela, pele e neng e World Boxing Organization (WBO) flyweight lefatše mampoli. The Hungarian has fought at home in Hungary, as well as on the road in the United Kingdom, Spain, Duitsland, Ukraine le Slovakia. 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 2eff. When my condition is good, as it is for this fight, nobody likes to fight me.
“Sena ke e khōlō monyetla oa le 'na. 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. le, like I’ve said, I don’t plan on this fight going the distance.
Ajtai, ehlile, isn’t traveling all the way to Kansas to visit Dorothy or the Wizard of Oz, a ho tla ha ho hlōla!
“Nico ke ke ua tseba moo ke neng ke tla ba le ka lesale la,” Ajtai bolela esale pele. “Ha a sheba ka ho le letšehali e le 'na, Ke tla tsamaea ka ho le letona; ha a ne a leka ho fumana hore ke ka ho le letona, Ke tla ba ka ho le letšehali. Ha a ne a batla ho phomola, Ke tla tla pele otla ka litebele; ha a ne a batla ho Punch, o ke ke ba fumana 'na.

FLINT, BOPHELO BA KA BA. (November 18, 2017) – Pele e neng e lefatše 'mampoli Anthony Dirrell (31-1-1, 24 Kos) had a successful return to the ring in his hometown as he won a technical decision over Denis Douglin (19-6, 12 Kos) in the main event of a special Friday night edition of Premier Boxing Champions Toe-TO-Toe TUESDAYS ka FS1 le Boxing Champions on FOX Deportes from Dort Federal Credit Union Center in Flint, Michigan.
I wanted to pressure him and test myself,” o ile a re Dirrell. “He was wearing down and then the head butt came. I told the doctor that my vision was blurry and he decided not to let me continue.
The fight was stopped in the sixth round after an accidental clash of heads left Dirrell’s left eye badly cut. The ringside physician deemed Dirrell unable to continue and the fight went to the scorecards where Dirrell won a technical decision by scores of 49-46 le 48-47 ka makhetlo a mabeli.
Fighting in his hometown for the first time since 2011, Dirrell came out fast and appeared to have Douglin in trouble in round one with a flurry of hooks. Douglin was able to survive the round and had successful moments landing left hooks to Dirrell’s head.
Douglin was aggressive throughout but was unable to stop Dirrell from mounting his own offensive surges. Dirrell scored to the body often and was able to work through any difficult moments.
I was going for the knockout,” o ile a re Dirrell. “I wanted to get him out of there. I was getting hit and I got frustrated occasionally. I need to stick to the game plan a little better and make sure I’m doing what I want to do in the ring.
Dirrell and Douglin continued to trade blows until the decisive clash of heads that led to a premature end of the fight and Dirrell taking home the decision victory.
I’m right there with anyone in this division,” o ile a re Dirrell. “I was getting ready for a title fight and I hurt my back but I’m ready now. I want to face anyone with a belt or whoever will step up to the challenge.
A ho sebdisana ka sehloohong ketsahalo, unbeaten welterweight prospect Jamontay Clark (13-0, 7 Kos) boxed his way to a majority decision victory over Domonique Dolton (19-2-1, 10 Kos) in their eight round bout.
Clark used his significant reach advantage and pumped his jab early and often, establishing it in the first round and adding different combinations off of it throughout the contest. Dolton attempted to close down the distance but was unable to land anything that deterred Clark.
A clash of heads midway through the fourth round opened up a cut over Clark’s right eye and appeared to temporarily re-energize Dolton, who tried to take advantage of the wound. Clark showed toughness in never letting the cut slow him down as he stuck to the game plan and boxed effectively down the stretch.
Dolton stalked him throughout the final frames and landed occasionally but it was not enough as Clark took home the decision by scores of 78-74, 77-75 le 76-76.
The opening bout of the telecast saw Ryan Karl (15-1, 9 Kos) earn a unanimous decision victory over Kareem Martin (9-2-1, 3 Kos) in an eight round battle of junior welterweight prospects.
Martin had success early walking Karl down and landed a powerful looping right hand combined with a left hook midway through the first round that staggered his opponent. Karl set the tone for the fight and shook off the attack and continued to come forward in an exciting opening frame.
Karl increased his work rate after the first two rounds, consistently using the jab and throwing right hands mixed in with body shots. Martin stayed in the pocket throughout but was too easy to hit as Karl got the better of much of the action in the middle of the ring.
In the final round, Karl seemed to have more left in the tank as he buzzed Martin with a right hand that slowed his opponent and helped him on his way to a unanimous decision by scores of 78-74 habeli 'me 77-75.

Vargas (27-2, 10 Kos) is returning to the ring for the first time a 13 dikgwedi tseafter dropping a 12-round decision in a welterweight title defense against Manny Pacquiao on Nov. 5, 2016. The 28-year-old Vargas, who was born in Los Angeles and now lives in Las Vegas, won the welterweight title with a technical knockout victory over Sadam Ali on March 5, 2016. His only other loss came against former welterweight champion Timothy Bradley and he owns victories over the likes of Antonio DeMarco, Josesito Lopez, Aron Martinez and Wale Omotoso.
Every fighter is dangerous and if I give Herrera the chance, he’ll knock my head off,” o ile a re Vargas. “But I come into every fight with bad intentions and I’m in a position where I know exactly what it takes to get where I want to go. I have a lot of opportunities ahead of me, but first, I have to show the fans that I’m back and look exciting while doing that. Herrera is going to give me his best, but I feel that I have the speed, the experience and the game plan to overcome anything he brings to the table.
Herrera (33-7-1, 22 Kos) has already fought four times in 2017 including his most recent outing, a stoppage of Israel Toala in July. The 28-year-old from Merida, Yucatan, Mexico lost to Brandon Rios via knockout on June 11 in a FS1 and FOX Deportes main event at Pioneer Events Center, where he will face Vargas.
I’m going against a really good fighter, but he doesn’t punch very hard,” re Herrera. “I will go bombs away from the first round. He can’t hurt me. I’m confident I will win this fight. Ena ke monyetla o moholo le 'na. I’ve got to start faster than I did against Brandon Rios and I can’t take anything for granted. The fans will get a great fight and definitely be winners on fight night.
Chaves (26-2-1, 22 Kos) is a tough veteran who has faced some of this generation’s best welterweights, including current unified welterweight champion Keith Thurman. The 31-year-old from Buenos Aires, Argentina, has won three straight fights since battling to a draw against former welterweight champion Timothy Bradley in 2014 including his most recent triumph, a knockout victory over Jean Carlos Prada on June 17.
James (21-1, 9 Kos) is on the comeback trail after suffering the first loss of his career to Yordenis Ugas via unanimous decision on Aug. 12, 2016. The 29-year-old James of Minneapolis, Minnesota bounced back from that loss with a unanimous decision victory over Jo Jo Dan on July 15. James has fought on FS1 and FOX Deportes his last four times in the ring and has recorded three wins in that stretch. Chaves represents a major challenge for James in his attempt to climb the welterweight ladder as he looks to add another name to his list of victories that includes Wale Omotoso, Javier Molina and Juan Carlo Abreu.
REDK (20-3-1, 16 Kos) and Molina (29-7, 23 Kos) are both coming off losses and will look to go through each other to regain top contender status. The 31-year-old Redkach, who was born in Ukraine and now lives in Los Angeles, is coming off a split decision loss in a FS1 and FOX Deportes main event to Argenis Mendez in his last fight on Ka 2. Molina la, 34, had one of the best performance of his career in June 2016 when he defeated Ruslan Provodnikov by unanimous decision. The Covina, Dorella. native earned a shot at Terrence Crawford in December that saw him lose by TKO in the eighth round.

I learned a lot in that fight. I took my time, and worked off the jab. I picked my shots and was not in a rush. I started to work the body and eventually broke him.

Atlantic City, NJ (November 15, 2017)–Super Bantamweight contender Adama Lopez is looking to getting back to the perch of being on a short list to fight for a world title.
Back on January 20th, Lopez was right there when he took on Daniel Roman in what was a WBA title elimination bout in Atlantic City.
Unfortunately for Lopez, he came up on the short end of that fight, empa Saturday bosiu he returns to Atlantic City when he takes on Jorge Diaz in an eight-round bout for the WBC Fecarbox Super Bantamweight title at The Claridge Hotel.

Camp was good. I am just taking off the last few pounds. I take my weight off slowly, and be comfortable, and then I rehydrate the right way,” o ile a re Lopez.
Lopez knows a win over the tough Diaz would get him right back in contention in the 122 boima ba arola.
I think a win gets me back to the place where I was at before the Roman fight. I will be knocking on the door of a title fight.
Diaz is a rough fighter, and I expect a tough fight from him. He has some good wins, and even though he has lost a few fights, four of them have been to undefeated fighters and the other was to a fighter with one loss, so I expect and I am preparing for the best Jorge Diaz.
I just want everyone to come out on November 18th, and I will put on a good show.
