“I think it’s inevitable,” – Logan Paul on potential fight against his brother, Jake

WHAT: YouTube sensation turned professional boxer Logan Paul joins this week’sFOOD TRUCK DIARIES, a segment under SHOWTIME Sports’ digital talk show and podcast seriesBELOW THE BELT WITH BRENDAN SCHAUBto preview his highly touted February 2021 boxing exhibition against all-time great Floyd Mayweather.

Paul details to Schaub how the Mayweather bout came to fruition, explains where his love and passion for boxing came from and speculates on a potential clash with his brother and fellow pro boxer Jake Paul, who scored a viral sensation over former NBA star Nate Robinson last month.

Following are excerpts from the episode:

On how the fight with Floyd Mayweather came about…

Paul – “I signed [the contract] and then after just months and months going back and forth, figuring out dates – we had three different dates – and how to announce it and just the strategy behind it. It finally came to fruition and this event that supersedes everything I’ve ever done in my life, finally solidified.”

On his boxing skills and last fight against KSI…

Paul – “I think we surprise a lot of people. It’s what I’ve done my whole life. I’ve just exceeded expectations and I don’t think there’s anything online that’s representative of how good I am or the level at which I’m operating at this point in my life when it comes to boxing. I think my last fight wasn’t indicative in the slightest. I remember after it happened, bro, the bell rang at the sixth round and I had half a tank left…Something just didn’t click that day…A year later, after an ‘L’, you secure a fight with the biggest fighter on the planet. It never really felt like a loss.”

On the rules of the Mayweather bout…

Paul – “I don’t think there’s a weight as of now. If they make me drop weight I’ll be pissed. I’ll make a thing about it. I’ll f***ing complain about it and sh*t. That’s the thing, dekstra? The greatest boxer of all time faces the young behemoth. I’m going in there and I’m towering over this dude and that’s what makes it exciting. It’s David vs. Goliath.”

On a potential fight with his brother, Jake…

Paul – “My dad does not want us to do that. If you want my opinion, I think it’s inevitable. I think Jake and I in two to four years’ time are going to be beating the sh*t out of each other in a ring and I think it’ll be one of the most historical sporting events to take place ever.”

Undefeated lightweight prospect Jamaine “The Technician” Ortiz No longer best kept secret after Tyson-Jones, Jr. PPV show performance

WORCESTER, Amaso. (Decembro 14, 2020) – Prior to his sensational performance on the recent Mike Tyson-Roy Jones, Jr. pay-per-view event, undefeated lightweight prospectJamaine "La Teknikisto" Ortiz was boxing’s best kept secret. No more, Tamen, as Ortiz firmly established himself as a rising star in front of countless fans among the 1.6 million PPV buys.

Ortiz flew from Boston to Los Angeles on Thanksgiving. He was driven to his hotel, where he immediately saw Jones, checked his weight, and walked to Staples Center. “I was comfortable from the start,” said the young fighter who was fighting for the first time as a professional outside of New England. “I was there to get the job done. I was on a mission. I walk to see the Staples Center and that was cool. I later took my run around the Staples Center and there were a lot of statues. It was beautiful. It was cool seeing the Lakers locker-room.”

La 24-jaraĝa Ortiz (14-0, 8 KOs), la reganta Monda Boksada Junulara Monda Ĉampiono, ElfrapisSulaiman Segawa (13-3-1, 4 KOs) with a bruising body attack, hurting his opponent in the sixth round, and closing the show in spectacular fashion in the seventh for the vacant World Boxing Council (WBC) USNBC (Usono) Silver lightweight title. Segawa had never been stopped before as a professional.

Ortiz displayed his overall arsenal: stiff jab, lightning quick hands and feet, switching back and forth effortlessly from orthodox to southpaw stances, punishing hooks up and down, and the most lethal body shots seen from a New Englander since"Irlandano" Micky Ward.   

“I was calm and cool before the fight,” Ortiz added. “I like to go into a fight, Mense, like it was a sparring session and I always do good. I started out in an orthodox stance, established my jab and used it a lot. I think I should have used it more and could have beaten him with it. I listened to my coach (Rocky Gonzalez) and he told me when to switch. Body punching is the No. 1 thing with Rocky. I may not have shown it nearly as much in other fights, but he drills that into me all the time. In the sixth round, he told me to go more to the body, not looking to catch him, and in the seventh I really hurt him to the body.

“Segawa was definitely tough. He had beaten a lot of guys, including a few he upset. Every fight is a stepping-stone and I’m my worst critic. I felt that I could have knocked him out in the second round, but I didn’t want to go off the game plan

Ortiz set-up Segawa from the opening bell, Rompis lin malsupren, and finished the show in grand style as Seqawa was hurt and trapped on the ropes, drawing kudos from highly respected people in the industry such as“Sugar” Ray LeonardTeddy Atlaso, and others. Ortiz’ fanbase grew exponentially as boxing fans rushed to sign up to follow Jamaine during and after his breakout fight.

“Once people saw me perform and my style,” Ortiz continued, “they liked me. I could have shown more and thrown more combinations. I really needed to fight in front of the world. I got 5,500 new Instagram flowers that night. I guess, I’m no longer the best kept secret in boxing.”

“Our main goal is to win a world title,” Gonzalez commented. “This was fun and a great opportunity, but the motivation to be world champion is stronger. He dealt with this fight as just another fight, and he followed our game plan.

“His body shots set up the ending. I’m always telling him about Micky Ward’s body shots. You know, boxing is a dance, a salsa. Boxers need to dance; I don’t think they should just be orthodox. They all need to fight the other way and when Jamaine switched stances in the third, Li neniam lasis supre. I’ve trained him hard. I’m always on him and what better way to shut me up than ending it like he did on pay per view?  It was a drop the microphone moment!?

Because of the uncertainty in boxing due to the pandemic, Ortiz’ 2021 schedule is unknown, but he isn’t boxing’s best kept secret anymore, “The Technician” is a bonafide rising star.

CHRIS COLBERT AIMS TO “SHOW EVERYONE WHY I’M ONE OF THE BEST 130-POUNDERS IN THE WORLD” AGAINST JAIME ARBOLEDA

Unbeaten Interim WBA Super Featherweight Champion Colbert Battles Hard-Hitting Arboleda in Main Event Live on SHOWTIME? #?I tiu sabato, Decembro 12

NOV-JORKO – Decembro 8, 2020 – Unbeaten interim WBA Super Featherweight Champion Chris "Primetime" Colbert will look to make a statement in his first nationally televised main event as he faces hard-hitting Jaime Arboleda vivu ĉe SHOWTIME ĉi-sabate, Decembro 12 #?E 9 P.M. ET/6 p.M. PT en okazaĵo prezentita fare de Premier Boxing Champions de Mohegan Sun Arena en Uncasville, Conn.

“I always knew I was going to get here,”Diris Colbert. “It’s all God’s plan. This is just going to be another day for me and I’ll show everyone why I’m one of the best 130-pounders in the world.”

The 24-year-old Colbert has shot up the rankings of the 130-pound weight class and believes that a victory on Saturday night will lead to bigger opportunities in the jam-packed division.

“This is one of the most stacked divisions in boxing and I love competing in it,”Diris Colbert. “It’s great to be getting noticed in a division that has this much talent, and hopefully it’ll lead to me getting the big fights that I need. I don’t feel like there’s any certain fighter I’m targeting, but Gervonta Davis, Leo Santa Cruz and Jamel Herring would all be great fights for me. Beating them would help me become ‘the guy’ in the division.”

Colbert’s rise continued in his last fight, as he scored a 10Th-round knockdown against former champion Jezreel Corrales on his way to a decision win while showing an impressive array of skills against a fighter determined to slow the action through holding and other veteran tricks.

“Against Corrales I learned not to rush,”Diris Colbert. “It’s not a sprint, it’s a marathon. I can’t just go rush in there and expect everyone to get knocked out. I had to take my time, do what I do best and stick to my game plan.”

In the 26-year-old Arboleda, Colbert will be presented with another rising 130-pound contender with his own sights set on emerging amongst the elite in the division. Arboleda has won five of his last six fights by stoppage and most recently dropped Jayson Velez on his way to a decision victory in February on SHOWTIME.

“Come December 12, Mi estas preta por kio ajn li alportas,”Diris Colbert. “I expect him to bring pressure and ‘try’ to make me tired because that’s the only chance he has. He can’t outbox me. That’s not happening. But I love to bang inside and I’m ready for whatever he does. I hope he doesn’t run or clinch me because I’d love to get the knockout and get him out of there early.”

The Brooklyn-native Colbert has continued to work with his longtime coach Aureliano Sosa in his hometown through the difficulties of the pandemic. Those difficulties have led to Colbert sparring with larger welterweight and super welterweights in camp, which Colbert believes could help him with the power Arboleda will bring into the fight.

“Training camp has been going great for the most part,”Diris Colbert. “It’s just been a little hard finding sparring partners. But because it’s been difficult to find fighters at my weight I’ve actually been sparring with 147 and 154-pound fighters. I honestly love that because it prepares me better, and who’s to say that Arboleda won’t have power like them? I’m on weight now, Tamen, and ready to put on a show on December 12.”

NOV-JORKO – Decembro 7, 2020 – Nevenkita altiĝanta perspektivo Richardson Hitchins dividis detalojn pri sia trejnejo, inkluzive de montriloj kaj instigo li ricevis de Floyd Mayweather kaj Gervonta Davis, antaŭ lia supermalpeza konflikto kontraŭ iama mondĉampiono Argenis Mendez vivu ĉe SHOWTIME ĉi-sabate, Decembro 12 #?E 9 P.M. ET/6 p.M. PT en okazaĵo prezentita fare de Premier Boxing Champions de Mohegan Sun Arena en Uncasville, Conn.

"Floyd ege helpis min dum mi estis reen en Las Vegas,”Diris Hitchins. “Mi jam havas la bazojn kiel batalanto, sed li montris al mi malgrandajn aferojn ĉi tie kaj tie kaj ekzercojn, kiujn mi kunportis hejmen dum mi trejnas por ĉi tiu batalo.. Mi ne estas timema pri mia kapablo kiel batalanto, ĉar mi vere kredas, ke mi estas la plej bona batalanto en la ludo, do ĉi tiuj estas la speco de bataloj kiujn mi bezonas por montri al la mondo kiu estas Richardson Hitchins.

"Gervonta estis instrumenta en pasintaj bataltendaroj ankaŭ, kaj li estas la speco de homo, kiun vi bezonas. Li puŝas vin iri pli forte. Ni iras kap-al-kapa provante superi unu la alian, kaj tio estas la speco de konkurado kiu estas bezonata por vere esti la plej bona."

Malgraŭ trejnado dum la pandemio, Hitchins povis resti sur tasko kaj survoje dum sia tendaro kiu komenciĝis en Las Vegas antaŭ finiĝi en sia indiĝena Broklino sub la gvidado de lia ĉeftrejnisto Lenny Wilson..

“La afero pri mi estas, Mi estas koncentrita negrave kio,”Diris Hitchins. "Mi ne demetas" post miaj bataloj. Mi restas en formo la tutan jaron; Mi ne bezonas prepariĝi pri kondiĉado aŭ refari mian korpon ĉar ĉi tio estas mia laboro. Mi prenas mian laboron tre serioze. La disciplino kiun Floyd havis dum sia kariero estas la sama disciplino kiun mi havas. Mi rigardis miajn idolojn kaj prenis aferojn de ili, por ke mi povu min venki.

"Mi ne pensas, ke la pandemio aŭ la ferioj nepre ŝanĝis mian trejnadon. Mi ankoraŭ havas aliron al mia gimnazio. Estas nenio, kio malhelpos mian manieron fariĝi bonega. La pandemio ne malrapidigas min, estas nur alia vojbaro testi mian dediĉon al la sporto."

La 23-jaraĝa Hitchins reprezentis Haition ĉe la 2016 Olimpikoj kaj revenos al la ringo post debuto en 2020 kun 10-raŭnda decidvenko super Nicholas DeLomba en februaro. Ĝi estis la dua 10-raŭnda decida venko de Hitchins post kiam lia antaŭa batalo vidis lin plej bone sekvi Kevin Johnson 10 rondoj en novembro 2019.

"Mi ofte pensas reen al mia batalo kontraŭ Kevin Johnson, li estas hardita batalanto kaj li estas tiu, kiun mi povas memcerte diri, alportis la plej bonan el mi,”Diris Hitchins. "Tiuj estas la bataloj, kiuj igas min rigardi malantaŭen kaj rigardi atente la aferojn pri kiuj mi devas labori. Tiu batalo ankaŭ montris al mi, ke neniu estu preteratentita, do enirante ĉi tiun batalon kontraŭ Mendez, Mi ne preteratentas lin."

Méndez prezentas la plej plenumeblan kontraŭulon de la juna kariero de Hitchins. La 34-jara iama ĉampiono plej lastatempe kontraŭbatalis Juan Heráldez kaj Anthony Peterson al remizoj. 2019, kaj gajnis venkojn super Eddie Ramirez kaj Ivan Redkach antaŭ tio. Por Hitchins, la forta resumo de lia kontraŭulo estas io, kion li ĝuas kiel mezurbastono por sia progreso.

“Li estas veterano, li estis tie kun multaj malmolaj uloj kaj li estas iama mondĉampiono, do li klare havas kapablon, kiun mi pensas, ke mi devas alfronti ĉi-momente en mia kariero,”Diris Hitchins. “Mi bezonas tiujn grandajn batalojn. Li estas pli maljuna nun, sed mi sentas, ke li en sia floro ankoraŭ ne povis tuŝi mian kapablon. Estas mia tasko pruvi tion.

"Mi scias, ke ĉi tio ne estos facila batalo, sed mi estos preta por ĉio, kion li alportos. Mia instigo estas esti pli ol ordinara. Mi plenumos miajn celojn kiam ĉi tio ĉio estos dirita kaj farita, kaj honeste, Mi nur atendas, ke ĉi tiu batalo venos, por ke mi povu montri tion. Ĉu ĝi estas Méndez, aŭ kiu ajn, la konvinko kiun mi havas kaj kiel mi sentas pri mi mem estas pli forta ol io ajn staranta antaŭ mi en tiu ringo.”

Ryan Roach’s Fighter Locker Signs Boston featherweight Troy Anderson, Jr.

BOSTON (Decembro 7, 2020) – Ryan Roach’s Fighter Locker has signed Boston featherweight Troy Anderson, Jr. Al eksklusiva manaĝera kontrakto.

Anderson, sindikato Sheetmetal laboristo en loka 17, estis ornamita amatoro, kiu gajnis oran medalon ĉe la 2016 Turniro de Rocky Marciano, same kiel La Nov-Anglia Turniro dufoje en 2018-2019, kaj gajnis Centran Dividadon de la Nov-Anglia Ora Ganto-Turniro dufoje kaj dualokulon dufoje dum sia kvarjara (2016-2019) run. He also competed in three national tournaments.

Anderson, Tamen, didn’t start boxing until he was 23, when he walked into a gym for the first time, 10 years after his two best friends introduced him to boxing. “I started in boxing because I hoped to succeed and reach my goals through boxing,” Anderson explained. “I train at Nonantum Boxing Club in Newton (MA), Kie Marc Gargaro is my coach. He’s one of the best in New England. He coaches for USA Boxing. I wouldn’t be in this business without him because he’s built me from scratch. I’m so glad to be coached by him and we’ve developed a bond like family.

#?E la #a?o de 28, Anderson has decided to turn pro, kiu, Nature, is relatively late in boxing. But he still feels 21 because of the way he moves and that he wasn’t on the wrong end of beatings in the amateurs. He’s also gained confidence sparring with some of New England’s top pros and amateurs.

I put a lot of hard work in the gym the past 5 #A? 6 years and I got tired of the amateurs,” Anderson explained why he decided to turn pro now. “It’s not too late for me; others have started late like me and went on to become world champion. I want to be in that group.

I thank Ryan Roach for giving me this opportunity to join Fighter Locker. He’s honest and I was comfortable with him. I like him and know he’s going to keep an eye on me. Why not sign with a Boston manager to help put boxing here back on the map?”

I’m excited about signing Troy Anderson, Jr.” Roach said. “I’ve been watching him for years and he’s developed well under Marc. Troy has fought the best in the country. He’s a very well-rounded fighter. I’m excited about adding him to the stable. He’s a BOSTON fighter and a great young man. It’s a win-win for us.



Anderson realizes that he needs to move to set up his shots, throw multiple punches, and change angles. He’s a slick southpaw who normally doesn’t rush in the ring. Anderson is thrilled to know that ripping body punches will score points, unlike in the amateur ranks, and breakdown his opponent. He predicts that he’ll display more power than he did as an amateur.

I’m driven to reach my goals,” he concluded. “I hope to make my pro debut early next year, pending pandemic restrictions. Ryan has kept his fighters busy, some fighting in Mexico. I love the challenge and can’t wait!”

WBO #7 AND IBF #8 BANTAMWEIGHT NIKOLAI POTAPOV BACK IN ACTION ON CHRISTMAS EVE AGAINST UKRAINE’S OLEKSANDR HRYSHCHUK

SKILLFUL RUSSIAN LOOKING TO STAY IN LINE FOR ANOTHER CHAMPIONSHIP CHALLENGE WITH IMPRESSIVE VICTORY

WBO #7 kaj IBF #8 bantamweight Nikolai Potapov will return to the ring on Christmas Eve, Decembro 24, at Soviet Wings Sport Palace in Moscow, Rusio, to take on Ukrainian contender Oleksandr Hryshchuk.

Potapov (21-2-1, 11 KOs), of Podolsk, Rusio, now residing Brooklyn, will face Hryshchuk (16-2-1, 6 KOs) of Bilytske, Ukrainio, as part of a mammoth 19-fight event presented by Shamo Boxing.

30-year-old Potapov was last seen obtaining a DQ victory over foul-plagued Tanzanian veteran Nasibu Ramadhani in five rounds last November.

FED UP FEMALE BOXERS DEMAND FAIRNESS AND A PLATFORM

Boxing’s top female athletes have no “Hejmo”, no network to showcase their talent

PRO TIO KE TUJA ELKARCERIGO

NOV-JORKOAs women continue to make strides toward equality across industries, boxing and its media partners remain in the past by disenfranchising women from a fair opportunity to showcase their skills and earn a living. In the same year that America elected its first female Vice President, a woman of color, the elite women athletes that top the world rankings have no regular television platform or boxing series. Nowhere is this unfair playing field more apparent than in the United States and North America.

The overwhelming majority of top females in boxing have not fought in 2020, or have not fought since January. The pandemic has hit women in boxing even harder than it has hit the men. The picture wasn’t rosy before Covid-19 and, without action, there is no reason to believe that it will improve.

This impacts all women in American boxing, from stars Claressa Shields and Amanda Serrano, to reigning world champions, to six-round and four-round fighters. Other than a handful of athletes, most female boxers must hold down a full-time or part-time job to make ends meet.

Amanda Serrano, Heather Hardy, Ava Knight and others have pursued opportunities in MMA to supplement their income and avoid inactivity. Claressa Ŝildoj, the most acclaimed woman in American amateur history, du-tempo Olimpika ora medalulo, and a proven attraction, is presently without a platform and just announced a multi-year deal with the Professional Fighters League.

The unified champion from Flint, #Mi?igano, told The Athletic that, “Ĝi estas (Boksanta) a sexist sport. It’s sexist with the opportunities we’re given. It’s sexist with the TV time. It’s sexist with how much we get paid. ĉiuj tri. It’s fine for a female boxing star to try her hand at MMA. They shouldn’t be compelled to do so for lack of opportunities.

These women consistently deliver great fights and solid viewership numbers,” Diris Lou DiBella, who promotes more women than any other US promotional entity. “They put people in seats, and viewership of their events often rivals the men. These aren’t club level fighters. They are elite world champions and, without television, without a regular platform, they can’t be financially secure or build any kind of fan base. It’s remarkable that women’s boxing is growing its talent pool and raising its stature, given the scarce television and streaming slots that are reserved for female fighters. This is a testament to the resiliency and dedication of boxing’s female athletes, who deserve better.

Local promoters, who are in the business of growing fighters and filling seats, can offer spots on their cards and regional exposure, but purses are very limited without television revenue. Female fighterspurses are often limited to a percentage of tickets they sell out of hand.

At the top levels, women are passed over. Heather Hardy, a DiBella Entertainment fighter, has seen the difference in the growth of boxers of both genders. “At press conferences, I sit at a seat at the very end, with the rest of the undercard fights,” Diris Fortikan. “I watch the boys go from sitting next to me at the end of the table, to moving up to the main card, then the co-main, and then the main event, but my seat never moved. No matter how much press I got, no matter how many fights I won, I never moved. Systemic sexism didn’t allow me to move.

It isn’t like we are a separate organization like the WNBA. We are only provided with token opportunities, fighting on the same cards, often in much more competitive fights than the men, and still aren’t treated fairly,” Diris Fortikan. “We have no place or professional home of our own.

This trickles down to aspiring female boxers and the amateur programs,” DiBella continued. “Young women in boxing need to see other women on the big stage. They need to see women that look like them on television and on streaming platforms. They need to know that if they pursue a boxing career, there will be sufficient opportunities to be seen showcasing their talents, for fair wage. If women are able to headline a boxing event, or capable of selling a significant percentage of a live gate, they should not be paid ten to twenty percent of what similarly situated men are paid. We’re not sending the right message here, and there’s no good reason for it in the 21st century.

The pool of talent available to women in the pro ranks is smaller, but it forces the best matchups. It forces women to fight outside of their weight classes.

Jessica McCaskill just won unified world titles, and wants to fight me at 147,said Amanda Serrano, seven-division world champion. “She called me out at 147! It’s kind of sad. Good for us if it makes sense, but the truth is, they’re calling out champs at 126. That is four different weight classes to go up. Men don’t have to do that! Women are constantly forced to compromise ourselves just to get a chance.

The talent pool won’t increase unless younger generations are inspired by women on television and streamingwomen who can fight as well as, and often better than, the men who are on television now. It’s time to stop asking nicely. It’s time for women boxers to demand fairness and stability, and it’s up to network executives, La amaskomunikilaro, and those who control access to media platforms, to stop living in the past. It’s time for women in boxing to fight for themselves and for the right to earn a living. And it’s now a time for action.
