“It was not easy to put all the parts in place, to have our sanitary protocol accepted and to obtain all the required authorizations while Quebec City was in the worst of the Covid pandemic time and declared a red zone,” GYM presidentИвон Michel said. “It has been tireless teamwork for several months and full collaboration from the participants. It is an expensive but important adventure for the relaunch of our activities and the restarting of the careers of our boxers. This gala will allow several boxers to regain hope and WBC # 1 aspirant Oscar Rivas to restart the machine for whom we have very ambitious plans this year.”

Syracuse’s Amir Anderson Goes from underdog to top dog

Март 15, 2021 FNU47 Оставете коментар

2020 Национално първенство по бокс в САЩ

Море. 25-Април. 4, в Шривпорт, Louisiana

Колорадо Спрингс, Скут. (Март 8, 2021) – In the 2019 Национално първенство по бокс в САЩ, Amir Anderson was a relatively unknown competitor from Syracuse (N.Y.), but this year he believes he’s one of the “top dogs” in the 165-pound decision.

Anderson will be competing in the youth division at the 2020 САЩ Национално първенство по бокс, отложено поради пандемията на COVID-19 от миналия декември до март 25 Април 3, в Шривпорт, The.

Anderson’s goal at these championships is simple: he wants to win to lock down a slot on the USA Boxing Youth Team, which will give him a leg up in terms of qualifying for the 2024 Olympics in Paris.

“The winner in each weight class qualifies for the USA Boxing Youth Team,” he explained. “Runner-ups are alternates and can make the team if the winner can’t for whatever reason. Искам да спечеля!

“Last time I had nothing to lose at Nationals. Сега, I have everything to lose. I do my research and breakdown other fighters in my weight class. I’ll be more focused this time because I was an underdog then and now, I’m the top dog in my division.”

The 17-year-old Anderson has already tasted success, capturing top honors at the 2019 Junior Open and 2019 Източна регионална отворена, in addition to finishing in the runner-up position at the 2018 & 2019 Национална юношеска олимпиада.

Still a high school senior, Amir describes himself as an all-around boxer with a unique style in which he can box or bang, hit the angles and throw a lot of punches.

Like every amateur boxer, last year was a tremendous challenge to train, due to COVID-19 pandemic restrictions. “I trained six hours a day in my basement to get in really good workouts,” Anderson said. “And I ran my miles, твърде. When my gym opened-up last July 2^ри, it was limited so I had to still workout in my basement. It was hard to stay focused, but I knew how.

“I really planned to win a lot of regional and national tournaments to get national recognition. I wanted to fight in Bulgaria with the junior team, but that was canceled, твърде. The pandemic was a setback for me, but we’ll see what’s in store for 2021.”

The National Championships is the first trip towards Amir Anderson’s Parisian goal for 2024 at the Olympics.

CLARESSA SHIELDS DOMINATES MARIE-EVE DICAIRE, MAKES HISTORY AS THE FIRST BOXER TO BE CROWNED UNDISPUTED CHAMP IN A SECOND WEIGHT DIVISION

Март 6, 2021 FNU47 Оставете коментар

**UNDEFEATED STAR CITES JUNE IN LAS VEGAS FOR HER MMA DEBUT; CALLS OUT KATIE TAYLOR AND SAVANNAH MARSHALL IN POST-FIGHT INTERVIEW**

(Петък, Март 5, 2021 – Flint, MY) Women’s superstar **Claressa Шийлдс** furthered her claim as boxing’s “GWOAT” Friday night and became the unified WBC, WBO, IBF & WBA Super Junior Middleweight World Champion, by scoring a one-sided 10-round unanimous decision over **Мари-Ив Дикер** от Сейнт Юсташ, Quebec, Канада, in the 10-round main event of the historic all-women’s “**СУПЕРЖЕНИ: ЩИТОВЕ VS. DICAIRE** event at the Dort Financial Center and live on pay-per-view in Shields’ hometown of Flint, Мичиган.

Шийлдс (11-0, 2 Нокаута) also became the first boxer in the four-belt era to become an undisputed world champion in two weight divisions by virtue of her shutout victory (100-90 by all three judges) over now former champion Dicaire (17-1).

Uncharacteristically, the 25-year-old Shields turned counterpuncher early in this fight, to offset Dicaire’s attempts to bounce in and out of range. Relying on her reflexes to punish any attempt at aggression by Dicaire, Shields shut the Canadian down and then turned back to her customary forward aggression later in the bout.

Dicaire landed a quality southpaw left on Shields in round four, possibly her only significant blow of the fight, and Shields simply shook it off to no effect.

I can’t be mad about my performance,” said Shields after the bout. “She just kept elbowing and headbutting me. I tried for the knockout and I almost had it a couple times, but we’ve got two minutes and the ref not breaking it up when she’s holding me and elbowing me. I’m happy but I still wanted the knockout. I just didn’t have enough time. В края на деня, I am the new undisputed champ at 154 and the first boxer to be undisputed champ twice.”

Shields said she was happy to have accomplished her latest piece of history in front of her family and friends in Flint, even if the pandemic meant a lot fewer fans in attendance.

“With Covid, we couldn’t have a full capacity. Има 300 here and that’s the capacity of the day, so we have a full house. We couldn’t have full capacity, but I know if we could have, we would have had 6000 people in here. I’m happy to have been able to do it here (in Flint). I started boxing here at Berston Fieldhouse at 11 възраст. Never in a million years did I think I’d be on pay-per-view and fighting for an undisputed title and be one of the biggest stars in boxing. I just wanted to win an Olympic Gold medal. God has given me two Olympic medals. имам 12 championship belts now. It doesn’t feel real to say undisputed twice.”

When asked about two of her remaining rivals in boxing, fellow superstar Katie Taylor of Ireland and her one-time conqueror in the amateurs, Savannah Marshall of the UK, Shields brimmed with confidence.

“Katie Taylor is not the worry. 147 pounds is. They’d have to pay me a lot to lose my butt and go down to 147. В края на деня, I’m a woman. I don’t have big breasts, but I got a nice butt, so come with that dough and I’ll be there. At least a million and I’ll be there.

“Savannah Marshall can’t f*** with me. Нека си го запази в реално. Savannah Marshall, you won a lucky decision when we were kids. Also London was hosting the Olympics. If you want to gloat about beating me 14 points to 8… come on now. And then I went on to become world champion in three different division and she broke. She knows she cannot and will not ever be able to f*** with me. She can come to America. I will go to the UK. We can go to Mexico. We can go anywhere, and I will f*** her up. She knows that. She’s scared of me. Savannah Marshall can get it. Tell Eddie Hearn, he came that whack-ass 250K. Tell him to come with 500K… 750K if he wants me to go to the UK and smoke his girl. Pay me.”

Dicaire continued her graciousness in post-fight questioning and promised not to let the loss dampen her future in the sport.

“I think Claressa did a good job tonight,“, каза Дикер. “Tonight, she was the best. Sometimes you win and sometimes you learn. Тази вечер, I learned. I think this is just going to allow me to grow stronger. I don’t box to protect my record or keep my record at 0 загуби. I box to beat champions. Тази вечер, I had the chance to fight the real champion. She won this time but count on me to go back to the gym and work hard and be world champion again for sure.

Шийлдс, who says her much-publicized MMA debut will likely be in Las Vegas in June, хвърли 409 punches in the fight and landed 128 включително и 34.9% of her power punches. Dicaire threw 263 punches in return but landed just 31.

“Flint Michigan got the baddest boxer in the world!” said Shields to her fans. “We two-time undisputed. Pacquiao who? Canelo who? When someone else does what I did let me know.”

В нощта на ко-основното събитие, Houston’s undefeated **Danielle Perkins** (3-0, 1 KO) showed marked improvement and had a much easier time in her rematch against Georgia’s **Monika “Lay Em Down” Harrison** (2-2, 1 KO), scoring a dominant eight-round unanimous decision while picking up the WBC Silver Heavyweight Championship in the process.

The former amateur world champion Perkins used every bit of her superior athleticism, 6’ height and 72-inch reach to move around the ring and keep the 5’ 10” Harrison at bay with a punishing southpaw right jab and a steady diet of strong left hands to the head and body. Понякога, Referee Michael Griffin appeared to be considering a stoppage, but the durable Harrison kept coming forward and swinging for the fences for all eight rounds, despite the firepower coming her way.

Резултатите бяха 80-72 от всички трима съдии.

“I apologize for not getting a knockout. I swear next time I’ll come back and give it to you, кремък,” said Perkins, след мача. “Monika made some adjustments this time. I hit her with some solid hammers and that girl stayed on her feet so kudos to her.”

Perkins threw 353 punches in the fight and landed 121 включително и 40.9% от нейните мощни снимки. Harrison threw 273 shots, but only found a home for 21 от тях.

“I want to be the undisputed female heavyweight champion of the world,” continued Perkins. “I want to be the best you’ve ever seen.”

Undefeated bantamweight **Джейми "Чудото" Mitchell** (6-0-2, 43 Нокаута) of Pacific Grove, Калифорния, looked impressive in battering and stopping more-experienced veteran **Noemi “La Rebelde / No-No” Bosques** (12-16-3, 2 Нокаута) in five one-sided rounds.

With the two-fisted punishment from Mitchell steadily increasing with every passing round, Referee Gerard White decided the stumbling and retreating Bosques had had enough and mercifully waved the fight off at 1:49 of the fifth.

“I was just zoned out. I was doing whatever fit the moment,” said Mitchell, след мача. “That’s how I got the knockout. Thanks to my coaches and thanks to Claressa Shields for putting me on this card. This is an unforgettable moment for women.”

Prior to scoring the technical knockout, Mitchell landed 48% (80/167) of her power punches, и 40% (94/234) от общите й удари. Noemi Bosques only landed 24 на 153 щанци.

“I like to pick on myself to do better,” said Mitchell of her performance. “There were certain things I wanted to do, but they don’t call this girl a gatekeeper for nothing. I wish I had gotten her out of there quicker and been crisper with my jab. She was a bit tricky.”

In the opening bout of the broadcast, 2012 Олимпийски бронзов медалист **Marlen Esparza**(9-1, 1 KO) stayed busy ahead of her scheduled challenge of WBC Flyweight Champion Ibeth Zamora in April with a dominant six-round unanimous decision over Canada’sShelly Barnett (сега 4-4-2, 2 KO).

Barnett tried to be aggressive, but Esparza’s skills allowed her to pot shot her bigger opponent, nearly at will, especially as the fight wore on. “We knew she was tough and bigger,” said Esparza. “I wanted someone with more weight because I never fight above 112 паунда. and I think I handled it well. I’m happy about the way everything played out. I’m happy to have been part of this event and to be working with Claressa again.”

Esparza threw 352 punches in the fight, приземяване 126, включително и 26 body shots and 38.4% от нейните мощни снимки. Barnett threw 291 and landed 49. Резултати на съдиите бяха 60-54, 6-53 х 2.

On the free pre-show portion of the pay-per-view, middleweight Timur Kerefov stayed undefeated (11-0, 6 Нокаута) with a TKO 3 over Saint Petersburg, Florida veteran Manny Woods (сега 16-11-1, 6 Нокаута). Woods left eye couldn’t hold up under the onslaught of punches from the Russian former amateur star. The time was 1:06. Kerefov, Detroit via Shalushka, Russia and now training at Kronk Gym, хвърли 190 punches in the abbreviated encounter, приземяване 80, включително и 24 снимки на тялото. Woods threw 122 and landed just 17.

**СУПЕРЖЕНИ: ЩИТОВЕ VS. DICAIRE** was presented by **Salita Промоции** във връзка с **Groupe Ивон Michel**, dedicated to this year’s International Women’s Day (Понеделник, Март 8, 2021) and proudly sponsored by online gambling titansBetonline.net and plant-based online marketplace Vejii.

Vera vs. Pendarvis suddenly and surprisingly ended midway through the opening round, when Pendarvis (21-8-2, 9 Нокаута), a former USBA champion, stopped throwing punches and went to his knees. He was counted out with what is believed to be a hand injury.

“Well,” Vera (20-1, 12 Нокаута) said after the fight, “the way my fight ended was anticlimactic. I was feeling really good and calm in there. I was just finding my range, establishing my jab and calculating. He threw a jab to the body and I blocked it with my elbow. I felt his knuckle hit my elbow. Sucked ut ended that way, но това, което можете да направите,?"

Vera has now won his last two fight since suffering his only loss as a professional back in 2018, when he traveled to France as a world rated fighter to take onМишел Соро(31-2-1) for the WBA Interim junior middleweight title, in which Vera lost a 12-round unanimous decision.

In Vera’s previous fight this past in August, “The Phenom” won a 6-round unanimous decision in Las Vegas overРавшан Hudaynazarov (17-2), a former world-rated fighter from Uzbekistan.

“I would like to get in the ring as soon as possible,” Vera added. “I wanted rounds, so it’s time to get right back in there. I’m unscathed and in shape.”

В съвместно черта събитието, ABF West super lightweight championChriston Edwards (12-2, 6 Нокаута) won a 6-round unanimous decision from Texas welterweightJonathan Steele (9-7-1, 6 Нокаута) in a non-title fight.

Scoring, въпреки че, was odd as Garcia won 60-54 и 59-55, but the third judge scored it a draw, 57-57.

Tennessee super lightweightTyler “Short Fuse” Tomlin остана непобеден, improving to 10-0 (6 Нокаута) with a quick stoppage of overmatched Venezuelan veteranRicardo Ocampo (12-11, 7 Нокаута), who was knocked out at the 53-seconds mark of round one.

Щракнете тук, за да гледате победата с технически нокаут на Адамс

San Juan, ПУЕРТО РИКО – март 4, 2021 – Бившият претендент за световната титла Брандън Адамс отбеляза най-голямата победа в кариерата си със зашеметяващ технически нокаут в осмия рунд, за да разстрои изгряващата звезда на сините чипове Сергей Бохачук в главното събитие на встъпилото в Ring City USA 2021 събитие от Felix Pagan Pintor Gym в Guaynabo, Puerto Rico, и на живо в NBC Sports Network.

Въпреки проблясващия атлетизъм и бързите ръце по време на битката, Adams (23-3, 15 Нокаута) беше надолу и в трите отчетни карти (68-64 x2, 69-63) в момента на спирането. 31-годишният играч загуби и трите рунда в осмия фрейм, когато отприщи идеално поставен контраудар, който нарани Бохачук, което създаде възможността за сензационно ляво кроше, което изпрати Бохачук на платното за първи път в професионалната му кариера.

„Той беше корав човек,“, каза Адамс. „Той извади от мен друга страна, за която знаех, че е вътре. Тази вечер трябваше да копая дълбоко и да използвам цялата сила, която трябваше да свържа с един от онези удари от оръдието.

Adams, който произхожда от Уотс, Калифорния, е първият боец, завърнал се в сериала Ring City USA в NBC Sports Network от създаването му през ноември 2020. В две изходи в боксовата поредица в четвъртък вечер, той е отбелязал два категорични нокаута в изпълненията на основните събития. Двубоят на Адамс с Бохачук първоначално беше насрочен за декември, но опонентът му беше принуден да се оттегли след положителна проба за COVID-19. Адамс продължи да спре Сони Дюверсон във втория кръг на това събитие в боксов клуб Wild Card в Лос Анджелис.

„Тази вечер беше наистина трудна битка,“, продължи Адамс. „Пръстенът беше мокър; тази вечер съдията беше срещу мен. Беше тежка битка. Аз съм експлозивен боец и не можах да се възползвам от това, защото нямах краката си под себе си, защото рингът беше мокър. Но въпреки че бях раздразнен, шоуто трябва да продължи. аз съм професионалист. Трябва да разбера как да взема W и това трябваше да направя. Благодарен съм за победата. Обичах Пуерто Рико, всички тук ме прегърнаха с любов.”

Бохачук, който е родом от Виница, Украйна, и сега живее в Лос Анджелис, влезе в битката с девствен професионален рекорд, подчертана от неговата 100% процент на нокаут 18 битки. 25-годишният играч пропусна първия рунд и на трите карти с резултати, но продължи да контролира темпото срещу ветерана Адамс през по-голямата част от битката, като прекъсна ринга и показа стабилна работа на тялото.

„Мислех, че той доминира в битката,“, каза главният треньор на Бохачук Мани Робълс. „Казах му да внимава за това ляво кроше. Казах му, че ако вземе това ляво кроше, той ще контролира битката. Необходими са няколко рунда, за да загрее Сергей, но той изглеждаше добре и защитата му наистина се подобряваше до този нокаут.”

В ко-главното събитие на вечерта, перспектива в супер полутежка категорияБрайън Шевалие (15-1-1, 12 Нокаута) на Bayamon, Puerto Rico, отбеляза впечатляващ нокаут в трети рунд срещуКарлос Самбрано (26-2, 11 Нокаута). Шевалие, 26, се върна на ринга след 15-месечно прекъсване, но не показа признаци на ръжда на ринга, тъй като отбеляза бърз нокдаун в първия рунд. В третия кръг, той отбеляза последователни нокдауни, подчертано от удара на лявата ръка към средната част, която изпрати Замбрано от Перу на платното и не успя да победи броя.

„Тази вечер имах предимството на височината и младостта, но той имаше опит,“, каза Шевалие. „Трябваше да разбера какво ще донесе той и да се адаптирам, за да получа победата. Аз съм много доволен от работата ми. Аз съм най-добрият 126-паундов в цялото Пуерто Рико.”

Откриване на телевизионното предаване в NBC Sports Network, Пуерто РикоДаниелито Зорила (15-0, 11 Нокаута) и КазахстанРуслан Мадиев (13-2, 5 Нокаута) участва във вълнуваща битка напред-назад. 28-годишният Мадиев донесе битката на Зорила с безмилостен натиск, докато тактическата Зорила противодейства добре. В петия кръг, Мадиев беше закачен точка за удар зад главата и при 1:16 от осмия кръг, реферът Джани Гомес спря двубоя заради нов удар зад главата, което беше счетено за случаен фаул. 27-годишният Зорила спечели победа с техническо решение, като две от картите с резултати бяха в полза на пуерториканеца (77-75, 77-74) докато третото беше изчислено в полза на Мадиев (76-73). Неофициалният голмайстор на Ринг Сити Стив Смогър видя битката 76-75 в полза на Зорила.

„Руслан тъкмо се захващаше,“, каза главният треньор Джоел Диас след двубоя. „Той ставаше по-силен след петия рунд и Зорила се уморяваше. Той продължи да прегръща Руслан през по-голямата част от битката. Лично, Мисля, че Зорила искаше да излезе от битката.

Мадиев напусна ринга бързо след обявяването на решението, но Диас изрази мнението си за края на двубоя.

„Той не е бил наранен, той е добър актьор,“, продължи Диас. „Зорила трябва да бъде актьор от сапунени опери. Ние спечелихме тази битка, и това не е честно за моя боец, защото той се включи в работата. Но какво можеш да направиш? Трябва да продължим напред.”

„С всяка битка, Ще продължа да се развивам и да слушам баща си,“, каза Варгас, Jr. „Това беше просто моята втора професионална битка. Търсихме нокаута, но техническият нокаут е наред. Направих удар, за да се отдалеча, и след това отпуснах лявата си ръка.”

Jimmy Williams finally gets his “world title fight”

Март 6, 2021 FNU47 Оставете коментар

BOSTON (Март 2, 2021) – New Haven (CT) super welterweight boxer Jimmy “Quiet Storm” Williams will finally get what he calls “his world title fight” tonight against former world champion Юри Форман in an 8-round bout for the vacant American Boxing Federation USA super welterweight championship, at the Kentucky Center for African Americans in Louisville, Кентъки.

бригадир (35-3, 10 Нокаута), биете от Brooklyn, captured the World Boxing Association (WBA) super welterweight World title in 2009, when he won a unanimous 12-round decision versus defending champion Даниел Сантос (32-3-1).

“We sparred back when I was a kid when I trained at the Joe Grier Boxing Academy in Patterson, New Jersey,” Williams explained. “Joe was the one who gave me my nickname, ‘Quiet Storm.’ Yuri is a true world champion. I basically have come from nowhere to share the ring with a world champion. What we’re doing is what boxing is all about. It’s not about age; той е 40 and I’m 34. Age doesn’t mean anything. I’m not a top dog, which is probably why they offered me the fight, but I’m a real fighter who will be in with a world champ. This is my world title fight! Печалба, губя, или равенство, I’ll be fighting a world champion. I’m not scared of anybody. It’s not about money, it’s who I am, and I always step up to the challenge. This is going to be a great fight.”

Williams (16-5-2, 5 Нокаута) is proud to be one of the rare football players who has succeeded in boxing. He was a standout cornerback at Southern Connecticut State University and invited to several NFL tryout camps. He came close to making the cut with the then-Oakland Raiders.

“I’ve always been a boxer at heart,” Williams said, “so football was easy for me. It was great getting calls from NFL scouts. I walked away from football for boxing. I’m a former Division 2 college football player fighting a world champion. I knew when it was time to leave football, but I’m not ready to leave boxing yet. I don’t need to box. I’m educated, work in the community, and I’m a father. I’m blessed to be boxing and I’ll know when it’s time to hang up my gloves.”

Williams didn’t box until after his mother, Belinda, was murdered in 2008 and her case remains unsolved. He lost his father to cancer.

“This fight for Jimmy is by far the biggest of his career,” Williams managerРайън Роуч (Locker Locker) remarked. “It’s a must win to get him back on track. He knows what he has to do. He made a move to Veloz Boxing in Rhode Island and he’s a different fighter from what he was in his last two fights. Just being around ‘Boo Boo’ (световен шампионDemetrious Andrade) and those guys there has Jimmy where he needs to be for this fight.”

Williams has been promoted byДжими Бърчфийлд’s Classic Entertainment and Sports (CES) since he turned pro in 2013.

“We have a close relationship,” Burchfield commented. “I turned him pro, got him on national television a few times, and even attended his wedding. I’m very proud of him. He’s been tremendously loyal to CES as we have to him. This is a great opportunity. He didn’t hesitate a minute to take this fight. He has a new trainer, Brian Johnson, and Jimmy has been driving bad and forth from New Haven to Providence to train. I think he’s in the top shape of his life, because he knows the importance of this fight. He deserves to have this opportunity.

Something special about his fight tonight against Foreman for Williams, an African American, is fighting at this venue (Kentucky Center for African Americans) in the hometown of his hero,Мохамед Али.

“I’m paying homage to all people who’ve lived my dream,” Williams remarked. “It is what I represent. We’ve lost a lot of people in the last year. Fighting in Louisville is big for me because it’s the home of ‘The Greatest,’ Muhammad Ali. I look at Ali more for his character and what he stood for than his boxing. He stood for something and lost the prime of his career because of it. I try to be like him in terms of who I am. He gave me the confidence be who I want to be in life. I’ve read every book about him. I refuse to give up like Ali. I’m a throwback fighter.”

LAS VEGAS (Март 1, 2021) – Undefeated world light heavyweight contender and former world super middleweight champion, Gilberto "Zurdo" Ramirez (41-0, 27 Нокаута), recently signed an exclusive promotional contract with Golden Boy Promotions, primarily because of the strong support he will receive fromOscar De Lay Hoya and his team.

“Ultimately,” the 29-year-old Ramirez explained, “Golden Boy understood the goals and agendas I set for myself and I felt the strong support from Oscar and his team. It’s a multi-fight deal with potential for something longer pending this first experience. From all the conversations my team and I have had with Golden Boy, I felt comfortable with them and the future opportunities that will arise from our relationship.

“Oscar is a great guy and it’s been nothing but a pleasure dealing with him and his team. As my relationship with Golden Boy continues to grow, I’m sure we (Oscar) will become closer. He’s a champion and one of the greatest to ever lace up the gloves. I look forward to working to him closely.”

Ramirez’ goal is to become the undisputed light heavyweight champion world, something he will have a better shot of accomplishing with Golden Boy in his corner.

"(WBA Super light heavyweight World championДмитрий) Bivoл (17-0, 11 Нокаута) is someone who has always been on the radar and I have full faith in (Golden Boy matchmaker) Robert Diaz to put together the best fights for me,” Ramirez added. “Unification has always been the goal. I know I’m the best in the division and hope to make this happens for the history books in the near future.”

This past December, Ramirez launched his own promotional company, Зърдо Промоции, which will remain active.

“Zurdo Promotions will continue and stay active,” Ramirez said. “Going forward, all my fights with Golden Boy will be in association with Zurdo Promotions. I will host fights in Mexico to be a bridge between Latin America and the United States. There’s tremendous talent in that region and I hope to use my platform to help and support the underserved fighters in Mexico.”

Ramirez, who is tentatively slated to return to the ring in May, в момента е класиран №. 1 от WBC, както и Не. 4 и Не. 5, съответно, by the WBA and WBO.

This will be my second fight on SHOWTIME and I feel that, този път, I’ll be coming back stronger, both mentally and physically. The audience will see the best of me.”

“I’m excited and thankful for the opportunity,” said Hill. “I’ve been working hard and grinding for a chance like this. I feel like I’m overdue for this type of fight and this kind of exposure, so I’m just ready to show everyone what I can do. I’m about to cut up on national TV.”

Padilla vs. Velasquez – Eight-Round Super Featherweight Bout

Padilla, 22, was born in Vieques, Puerto Rico, and currently lives and fights out of Berlin, N.J. The all-action, power-punching southpaw has stopped all but one of his professional challengers, including six opponents who failed to make it out of the first round. His last time out in January 2020, Padilla needed just 2:46 to stop Israel Suarez-Olmeda. Padilla turned professional in December 2016 after a stellar amateur career that included three National Championships and a record of 90-7. He trains alongside former world champions Tevin Farmer and Jason Sosa under trainer Raul “Chino” Rivas.

“Първо и преди всичко, Искам да благодаря на Бог, my family and my team for keeping me positive through these hard times,” said Padilla. “I am very excited for this opportunity to showcase my skills in front of a national audience. I have sacrificed a lot to get to this point in my career. It takes a lot of dedication to the sport and I am confident that it will pay off. It has been 13 long years of working hard to show the world who Victor Padilla is and, за март 10, a new chapter will begin. Thomas Velasquez is a good fighter and this is a good matchup, but may the best man win.”

Velasquez, another Philadelphia native, направи своя професионален дебют в 2015 and looked to be rapidly rising through the ranks, winning his first nine fights including five by way of knockout. A draw with Tyrome Jones in September 2017 stalled his career to a near standstill, as he did not fight again until 2020 when he scored a third-round KO over veteran Gustavo Molina in his return bout. The 25-year-old will look to regain the momentum he had earlier in his career with a win over the highly regarded Padilla. Като аматьор, Velasquez had a 30-3 record and won the Pennsylvania State Golden Gloves. He is trained by Hamza Muhammad, who also trains the newly crowned WBO Junior Featherweight World Champion Stephen Fulton Jr.

“I could not be happier to have this opportunity to show the world what I can do,” said Velasquez. “It doesn’t matter who is standing in the opposite corner, I fight to provide a better life for my twin daughters. I look forward to putting on a spectacular performance on March 10 and leaving that ring with my unbeaten record intact.”

Международната боксова зала на известността Бари Томпкинс ще извика екшъна от ринга заедно с колегата от Залата на славата и историка на бокса Стив Фардъти и бившият световен шампион Раул Маркес, служещи като експертни анализатори. Изпълнителният продуцент е Gordon Hall с Ричард Gaughan производство и Rick Phillips режисура.
