TOMMY FURY WITHDRAWS; JAKE PAUL TO FACE TYRON WOODLEY IN REMATCH ON SATURDAY, Diciembre 18

Paul-Woodley II “Leave No Doubt” To Take Place At AMALIE Arena in Tampa, Fla., En vivo por Showtime PPV®

NUEVA YORK - Diciembre 6, 2021 -International superstarJake "El niño problemático" Paulwill face former MMA world championTyron "El Elegido" Woodleyin a rematch of their August clash won by Paul. Paul vs. Woodley II titled “Leave No Doubt” will be the main event on SHOWTIME PPV, live from AMALIE Arena in Tampa, Fla., en sábado, Diciembre 18 (9p ET/6p PT).

Woodley steps in to replace professional boxer and reality TV starTommy Furia, who withdrew from the event due to a medical issue that impacted his training camp. Pablo vs. Woodley II is a professional cruiserweight bout scheduled for 8-rounds at a contract weight of 192 libra.

“When my team woke me up on Friday to tell me Tommy was pulling out, I told them I’m ready to fight anyone on December 18,” said Paul, que es 4-0 as a pro boxer with three knockouts. “Troy, Trey, Trevor, Travis. I don’t give a damn who it is. Así, as I predicted Tommy Fumbles and Tyron is there to pick it up, stepping in, and contractually he is getting an extra $500,000 if he knocks me out. First time I outboxed him. This time I’m gonna punish him and leave no doubt.”


En Agosto 29, in front of a sold-out crowd of 16,000 fans at the Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse in Cleveland, Ohio, Paul registered a split decision over Woodley. The former UFC champion was Paul’s toughest opponent to date and the first fighter to take boxing’s newest star the distance. Los jueces anotaron la pelea 77-75 for Paul, 77-75 for Woodley and 78-74 for Paul.

In his post-fight comments, Woodley said he thought he won the fight.

“I didn’t expect him to eat my punches like that. But the fact that one judge only gave me two rounds is insane. Forget that Tommy Fury fight. Let’s run that back,” said Woodley after the fight.

“The ropes held him up when I hit him,” Woodley continued. “I could have had that knockdown. I landed power punches and he missed shots all night.”

Luchando fuera de St. Louis, Misuri, Woodley (19-7-1 récord de MMA) tiene una carrera histórica en los deportes de combate. Se convirtió en campeón de UFC en julio. 2016, derrotando a Robbie Lawler en la primera ronda, y pasó a defender su título con éxito cuatro veces. Antes de competir en la UFC, Woodley luchó en la promoción Strikeforce MMA en SHOWTIME y compiló un 8-1 registro de 2009 a través de 2012. Ampliamente considerado uno de los golpeadores más peligrosos en la historia de UFC., Woodley ganó 14 de su 19 gana por nocaut técnico o sumisión.

LOS ANGELES (Diciembre 5, 2021) –Superestrella del boxeo y cinco veces campeón mundial Gervonta “Tanque” Davis mostrar sus habilidades boxísticas, ganando una conmovedora decisión unánime de 12 asaltos sobre el implacable Isaac “Pitbull” Cruz para retener su título mundial de peso ligero de la AMB frente a un repleto de estrellas, multitud de 15,850 en STAPLES Center en vivo por SHOWTIME Pay-Per-View, en un evento presentado por Premier campeones de boxeo.

Scorecards leídas 116-112 y dos decenas de 115-113, todo por Davis.

El ambiente en la arena era eléctrico., con la asistencia de decenas de estrellas actuales y anteriores de la NBA, incluido Earvin "Magic" Johnson, kawhi leonard, Dwight Howard, kenny smith, Kevin Garnett y Paul Pierce entre otros.

Acompañado por el rapero superestrella Lil Durk, Davis entró al ring en Laker morado y dorado.; borlas a lo largo de sus baúles con el número "8" y "24" del difunto Kobe Bryant en cada lado. Cruz celebró su herencia mexicana con una banda de mariachis detrás de él mientras caminaba hacia el ring..

No hubo un proceso de tanteo en la primera. Cruz cargó contra el campeón defensor, sujetándolo contra las cuerdas y llorando.

"Es mi estilo. 'Pitbull' siempre va a estar al ataque,"Dijo Cruz. “Creo que mantuvimos el ritmo desde el principio hasta el final”.

Davis encontró su ritmo en el segundo y tercero, dando vueltas en el ring y llevando a Cruz a los tiros. En el cuarto, Cruz concentró su ataque al cuerpo, golpeando las costillas de Davis.

El nativo de Baltimore de 27 años encendió el poder en el cuarto, alternando entre el gancho de derecha y el cruce de izquierda detrás de su postura de zurdo. Más golpes de castigo vinieron de Davis durante el quinto.

“Es un peleador más bajo, así que estaba tirando hacia abajo en la parte superior de su cabeza,"Dijo Davis. “Le pegué con el nudillo y lo estropeé. Me lastimé la mano en el sexto asalto. No importa si el oponente es más alto o más bajo, tengo que superarlo. Es un guerrero. Aunque no ganó, una estrella nació esta noche.

“Fue alrededor de la quinta ronda que vi que su mano no funcionaba correctamente.,Cruz observó.

Davis boxeó maravillosamente en las rondas intermedias, disparar tiros rápidos y alejarse del fuego de respuesta. Un gancho de derecha en el octavo zumbó brevemente a Cruz y puso de pie a la audiencia.. Pero justo cuando parecía que la pelea se estaba escapando, Cruz combatió el fuego con fuego, aterrizar un uppercut al ras segundos antes de la campana.

El mexicano de 23 años tomó el ritmo en las últimas rondas, manteniendo a Davis alerta y golpeando lejos. Davis se defendió, contraatacar en igualdad de condiciones hasta el final de la pelea.

Naturalmente, Cruz creía que merecía la victoria.

“Viva Mexico. No tengo nada que decir, los fans estan hablando de quien gano esta pelea,"Él dijo.

Después de una exitosa defensa del título, Davis dijo que está listo para todos los interesados..

"LA., lo hicimos por Kobe,"Dijo Davis. “Al comienzo de la pelea, él vino fuerte. Sentí como iba la pelea, él se estaba desmoronando. Pero me lastimé la mano, asi que no pude sacarlo de ahi.

“Cualquiera que sea la mejor oportunidad para mí, Lo haré. Todos ellos son un trabajo fácil.. Soy el perro de arriba.

En el evento co-principal, Sebastián "Towering Inferno" Fundora se acercó a una oportunidad por el título mundial con una decisión unánime de 12 asaltos sobre el invicto anteriormente Sergio García en un WBC superwelter eliminatoria por el título.

Lectura de puntajes finales 118-110, 117-111 y 115-113.

Fundora estableció el control rápidamente en la primera, golpeando la cabeza del español García hacia atrás con una izquierda en auge. Los dos negociaron de manera uniforme durante las primeras rondas.. García tuvo sus momentos, incluido un fuerte derechazo en el quinto que hizo sangrar la nariz de Fundora.

Fundora, de 23 años, encontró su rango en el sexto, bombeando el jab y usando su marco de 6 pies y 5 pulgadas y su alcance de 80 pulgadas para mantener a raya a García.

“Estaba usando mi distancia mucho más. Quería mostrar algo diferente a lo que estoy acostumbrado.,”Dijo Fundora. “La altura definitivamente fue una diferencia en esta pelea”.

García tuvo problemas para aterrizar durante la segunda mitad de la pelea., excepto por un par de momentos en el 12º cuando los dos combatientes se pararon cara a cara.

“Tal vez las cosas podrían haber sido diferentes si hubiera sido más agresivo desde el principio,"Dijo García. “No debería haberme dejado llevar por lo que estaba haciendo”.

Fundora cree que está listo para una oportunidad por el título mundial.

“Acabamos de vencer al No. 2 en el CMB, así que tenemos el número 1, y tenemos al campeon,”Dijo Fundora. “Quien sea que nos den a continuación, estamos listos para”.

En un emocionante ida y vuelta, Carlos Adames (21-1, 16 KOs) superó un duro desafío del ex retador al título mundial Sergiy Derevyanchenko (13-4, 10 KOs) para ganar una decisión mayoritaria de 10 asaltos en su eliminatoria por el título mundial de peso mediano del CMB.

Ambos combatientes tuvieron sus momentos, pero enfrentándose al rival más duro de su carrera, Adames, de 27 años, brilló. Un juez calificó la pelea de peso mediano incluso en 95-95, mientras que los otros dos se lo anotaron a Adames por veintenas de 96-94 y 97-93.

“Esto significa mucho para mí en mi carrera y es un gran logro ganar contra un peleador de su calibre.,- dijo adames, quien nació en la República Dominicana y pelea en Washington Heights en la ciudad de Nueva York.

“Soy agresivo y veloz por naturaleza., así que vine listo para hacer lo mío. Empezó lento, queriendo ver que pasaria, y simplemente tenía el plan de juego equivocado. Se cansó un poco a medida que avanzaba la pelea., Recibió muchos golpes duros de mi parte y era evidente que le causé mucho daño”.

“Espero que mi oponente pelee con el mismo estilo. no fue nada especial para mi, solo una pelea de calidad,"Dijo Derevyanchenko.

“Se quedó zurdo, esa fue la diferencia en la pelea. no se que hare a continuacion. Necesito un poco de descanso y luego volveré al gimnasio porque amo el boxeo y amo el espectáculo”.

“Esto me da la oportunidad de seguir adelante.,- dijo adames. “Yo domino en ambos 154 y 160, así que donde sea que me den la oportunidad de pelear por un campeonato, iré”.

En la pelea de apertura de la transmisión televisiva de SHOWTIME PPV, contendiente de peso superpluma Eduardo “Zurdito” Ramirez (26-2-3, 12 KOs) estaba en plena forma, ganando una amplia decisión unánime de 10 asaltos sobre el ex retador al título mundial Miguel Marriaga.

“Me gustaría agradecer a los fans, SHOWTIME y la familia Montiel por apoyarme. Marriaga fue un duro rival, pero logré dominar,"Dijo Ramirez. “Tenía un estilo de lucha variado y lo mantuve alerta todo el tiempo”.

Marriaga (30-5, 26 KOs) fue el agresor durante todo, particularmente en la primera ronda cuando respaldó a Ramírez con golpes combinados. Este último encontró su rango a la mitad del marco., utilizando un jab preciso. En el tercer, un gancho de derecha seguido de un volado de izquierda derribó a un Marriaga desequilibrado para una caída rápida.
“Empezamos fuerte, pero luego las cosas se pusieron cada vez más difíciles. Una vez dicho esto, estamos satisfechos con el trabajo que realizamos hoy,- dijo marriaga. “Deberíamos haber sido más inteligentes, pero hicimos todo lo posible ante una gran oportunidad que lamentablemente no pudimos aprovechar”.

Ramírez dominó tras anotar la caída, castigando a Marriaga desde entonces con un surtido de tiros en la cabeza y el cuerpo. Las estadísticas finales del golpe hicieron que Ramírez aterrizara 280 de 762 (36.7%) golpes totales a los de Marriaga 159 fuera 689 (21.3%).

“Ahora me voy a relajar con mi familia y disfrutar de las vacaciones,"Dijo Ramirez. “Entonces, con suerte 2022 vendrá con una oportunidad por el título para mí.”

Tornado goes to the movies: rocky iV remastered review

Deja un comentario
por: Tony “the Tornado” Penecale (arriba)

Here is my review of the Rocky vs Drago movie plus a photo with the movie poster. Guess who walked out with it!

So I went to see the Rocky vs Drago Director’s Cut film last night.


Here are 2 spoilers that shouldn’t be spoilers. Apollo still dies and Rocky still wins.


So the movie had approximately 40 minutes of new footage. It also kept approximately the same run time so with 40 minutes of new footage, there is nearly 40 minutes of omitted footage.


Now for some spoilers. If you don’t want anything spoiled, I suggest you stop reading here.


There were two shots that I really hoped would have been edited out for this film but somehow still made it in. I’ll get to them later.


So I’ll breakdown some of the changes/additions/omissions and give my thoughts.


1) New opening. Por lo general, it starts with the ROCKY title scrolling across the bottom to one of the series signature songs. Then it breaks into the last round of the previous movie. This movie starts with various clips from Rocky 3 including Rocky’s loss to Clubber Lang, Apollo talking him out of retiring, and the climatic fight scene. It completely omits the Rocky and Apollo sparring session. I was not a fan of the new opening. I am used to the normal movie openings that last 2-3 minutes and set the stage for the new installment. I wasn’t a fan of the song they used “Sweetest Victory” which is on the Rocky IV soundtrack but never used in the original.


2) No robot. While this was seen as a cross between corny and creepy (Paulie’s girlfriend?), the omission of the robot, likely due to licensing agreements, meant that many scenes with Paulie or Rocky Jr had to be cut including Paulie’s birthday scene.


3) The new Drago introduction press conference explains that they tried to arrange a fight with Rocky. I thought that was good but they cut out Drago’s wife comparing him to Popeye eating spinach. De hecho, a lot of Brigitte Nielsen’s dialogue was cut. Could it be because of her “rocky” relationship with Stallone?


4) The reasoning for Apollo to take the fight was improved. Sí, he still shows up out of nowhere and part of the table scene had to be cut (no robot, remember) but they talked about how Rocky ignored the challenge and Apollo feeling the need to take it.


5) I thought the omission of the whole pre-fight dressing room scene with Rocky and Apollo was a mistake. Not only does it cut one of my favorite lines “I didn’t say anything about snails, I said Nails N-N-Nails” but it shows Apollo’s overconfidence and Rocky’s trepidation. The only part of the original dressing room scene that is preposterous is where Rocky was trying to convince Apollo to postpone. Seriously, who postpones 5 minutes before they are scheduled to walk to the ring?


6) The Creed-Drago fight was greatly improved. Except for the one shot they left in from the original where Apollo is clearly not wearing gloves. They missed that edit the first time. How did they miss it again? The fight was extended and Apollo got up after an early knockdown and kept trying to fight back.


7) Apollo’s funeral was extended and improved with his father-figure Duke giving a speech and Rocky giving a more emotional speech.


8) The scene with the boxing commission not sanctioning the fight between Rocky and Drago was included as it was shown in the original 1985 trailer but cut from that movie.


9) The scene of Rocky talking to his son before leaving was extended and improved.


10) The training montages were slightly changed and some edits to the scenes in Russia.


11) The final fight was still enjoyable. There were some added elements to it.


12) Two of the better movie speeches were changed to voiceovers. Apollo in the dressing room telling Rocky he would understand when it was over was changed to voiceover in Rocky’s head. The epic speech to Adrian where he said Drago would have to kill him to beat him was also changed to an inner-monologue voiceover. I definitely think that was a mistake because it takes the charm away from seeing the facial expressions of Apollo and Rocky respectively as they said those lines.


13) The moment before the final round when Drago’s manager ran from his balcony seat with the Kremlin to berate Drago in his corner. I was hoping that if any scene was cut, it would be that one. I would rather there be a scene of Paulie marrying the robot and announcing she was pregnant than this scene. I hated it in 1985 (cuando yo era 9 años) and I hate it now. There is 60 seconds between rounds of a boxing match. This man ran from the balcony, through the crowd, got to Drago’s corner, and berated him in less than one minute. Drago, for having endured 14 punishing rounds, is able to stand up and lift him with one arm before dropping him off the apron. Talk about taking some serious liberties.


14) The fight end. You get used to the way a Rocky fight ends. He scores the big knockdown, his opponent struggles to get up, and ultimately falls back down as the count reaches 10. Éste, Drago goes down, makes a move to get back up, a falls flat. The referee stops with no count at all. I also hated Rocky’s leap at the end. In the original, he was lifted in the air as he stood there exhausted by triumphant. This one looks like he is able to do a leaping swan dive into a pool.


15) The speech is different. He couldn’t reference his kid because showing him would show the robot. I was glad in a way they cut the scenes of the kids watching the fight. It always posed some serious questions to me. If Rocky, Adrian, and Paulie were all in Russia, who was watching the 9 year old kid? The robot? Who is going to let an unsupervised 9 year old watch a fight where there is a fear that his father could be killed? The part of the speech that was comical was Rocky’s talk about change. He mentioned his friend (Apollo) couldn’t change and now he’s dead. Guau. Way to perk up the crowd there, Rock!


Overall it was enjoyable. The changed scenes and alternate takes threw off the cadence so you were in truth watching a new movie. There were a lot of scenes in this film that I prefer to the original (the extended Creed-Drago fight, the extended funeral, Rocky meeting with the commission). There were some scenes that I think should have been kept (Rocky and Apollo in the dressing room, señora. Drago talking about her husband, etc). There were a few things that I definitely prefer the original, most notably the superior intro scrolling logo/final round of previous movie scene.


So in my conclusion, there needs to be a Director’s Cut of the Director’s Cut and combine the best of the original and the best of the new version.


We can call this one “Rocky IV Take III: The Tornado Cut”

Rematch of 2021 N. S.. Fight of the Year Wilfredo Pagan vs. Carlos Marrero, III headlines “New England’s Future VIII” Dec. 18th in Webster, Massachusetts

Diciembre. 18º in Webster, Massachusetts

ME Poster.jpg

WORCESTER, Masa. (Noviembre 29, 2021) – The rematch of the unofficial 2021 New England Fight of the Year will headline the December 18º “New England Future VIII” event, presentado por Rivera Promociones Entretenimiento (RPE), highlighting Webster’s (Massachusetts) first professional boxing event in 27 año, at Webster Town Hall.

Puerto Rico-native Wilfredo “El Sucaro” Pagan (6-1-1, 3 KOs), fighting out of Southbridge (Massachusetts), and Bridgeport’s (Connecticut) Carlos Marrero, III (2-6-2), fought to an entertaining 6-round split draw this past August 14º en Worcester (Massachusetts).

“I am very excited we were able to get the rematch between Pagan and Marrero so quick,” RPE promoter Jose Antonio Rivera commented. “These two warriors put their heart and soul in their last fight and the fans were not disappointed. As a promoter these are the type of fights we love to put together. We are 3 weeks away from another great boxing event to see some talented up and coming future champions. Webster Town Hall is going to be electric!"

Pagan and Marrero will be fighting once again for the vacant New England Super Lightweight Championship in the Dec.18º 6-ronda principal evento.

The original Pagan-Marrero was non-stop, action-packed throw-down which the judges’ scored 58-56 in favor or Pagan, 55-59 for Marrero, y 57-57. The scoring was originally announced as a split-decision win for Marrero but, en retrospectiva, both fighters have taken the emotional outcome changes in stride. Some fuel, aunque, has been poured on the fire, largely through social media.

“When the fight was done,” Pagan commented, “as a fighter, you know if your fight was won, lost or very close. It was a little close, but that I won the fight. When the decision was announced that he had won, I closed my eyes, because it reminded me of my amateur career. I definitely won a few fights, dominé, but I didn’t get the decision. Anything can happen when it goes into the judges’ hands. The judges didn’t see me winning, bueno, but then they reversed the decision. I thought that they had gotten it right and I had won, but it was announced as a draw. Es lo que es, bueno, because the judges’ job isn’t as easy as people think. They saw ups and downs and had it a draw.

“II was thinking, here we go again, when it was announced a draw,", Dijo Marrero. “For some reason, every time I fight in Massachusetts it’s always controversial. I had dropped to my knees in happiness and when the second announcement was made, I thought they were giving him the win. A draw? I’m not upset but I was surprised because I felt I had won. I went home thinking it was a draw, not a loss, and hopefully we’d have a rematch. And we do December 18º."

Pagan vs. Marrero is an example of not needing two great fighters to have a great fight. They’re evenly matched and both fighters have tremendous heart.

“People had asked if I wanted a rematch and I said, sí, I’m thinking about it because it was a draw,” Pagan offered. “I wasn’t going to say no if it was offered, but the No. 1 reason for me to fight him is for the New England Championship. As long as I fought him for the title, I was for it because I want to fight for the belt and that’s what is my target. That was my feeling at the beginning, but things changed a little, because he changed. I don’t know what people told him, I’m not some kid and I had a lot of respect for him. But then he started texting me. I don’t know if it was to spice up this fight, but he crossed the line. He said a lot he shouldn’t have said. I’ always humble and respect all fighters because they’re risking their lives. I don’t know why he said what he did, but he’s given me even more motivation. I want that belt! I’m training double to beat him and shut his month. I still have some respect for him, but it’s not the same.

“I made a lot of mistakes in our first fight and made the fight much harder than it was supposed to be. I’ve been working on adjustment and, Ojalá, en diciembre 18º it will pay-off.”

“I always have a little room for improvement after a fight, and we saw some things I needed to improve for the rematch,” Marrero explained. “I’m more mentally prepared to do things and will be much smarter in the ring. Físicamente, I’m a lot stronger and sharper. The key for me is being mentally prepared and sharper. Su (Pagan’s) opponent for his last fight fell out and my manager, Nate Torres, contacted me saying I had been offered an opportunity to fight Pagan. Without hesitation, Dije si. I’m always in the gym and ready to fight. I came in 2-pounds under and I’m on weight right now for this fight. The only thing I had to prepare for is he’s a southpaw.

“We had a great fight. He probably thinks he won a few rounds, I felt I won the fight. He missed more and I connected with the cleaner punches the judges could see. In the third or fourth round, I hurt him with a body shot. He folded and I hit him with another good shot.”

En el evento co estelar, Danbury (Connecticut) super lightweight Omar “The Beast” Bordoy (11-1, 3 KOs) faces an opponent to be determined in the 6-round match.

Promising Boca Raton (Florida) super welterweight prospect Josniel “TG” Castro (7-0, 5 KOs) is steps up in terms of quality opposition in a 6-rounder versus Lenwood “Mr. Composure” Dozier (10-28-3, 5 KOs).

Worcester super middleweight Bobby “BH3” Harris, III (3-0-1), a two-time national amateur champion and World Games Silver medalist, will meet David Rohn (0-10-1) in a 4-round super middleweight bout.

Undefeated Worcester cruiserweight prospect Derek “Hightower” Edmonds (3-0, 2 KOs), a 3-time N.E. Campeón de los Guantes de Oro, has been added to the card in a 4-round bout against TBA.

Worcester middleweight Eslih Owusu (6-0, 4 KOs), a native of Ghana, faces Anthony Everett (1-0), de Lawrence, en un 4-redondo.

Also fighting on the under undercard in 4-round matches are New Haven (Connecticut) super lightweight Anuel Rosa (2-0, 2 KOs) vs. Stacy Anderson (0-8), and Bridgeport super lightweight Oscar Bonilla (6-3-2, 1 KO) vs. Seth Basler (0-17).

DEERFIELD BEACH, Florida (Noviembre 26, 2021)—Homecoming At Last! The fight for the forgotten people (the homeless, poor, and downtrodden people) will benefit from this championship doubleheader.

The world’s greatest boxing promoter, Don King, will return to his home state of Ohio on Saturday, Jan. 29, 2022, as he presents another blockbuster for the forgotten people, who won’t be forgotten any more, world championship fight pitting WBC Cruiserweight Champion Ilunga Junior Makabu and the number one challenger, WBC Silver Champion Thabiso Mchunu.

The WBC world championship fight for the love of the people, will be held at the W.D. Packard Music Hall in Warren, Ohio. In addition to Makabus-Mchunu, a special 10-round heavyweight sensational attraction will pit undefeated Jonathan Guidry (18-0-2, 10 KOs) of Dulac, Louisiana risking his perfect record against Alonzo Butler (34-3-2, 25 KOs) of Chattanooga, TN.

Rey, who represents Makabu, came to an agreement with Mchunu’s representatives on the 12-round world championship fight, and the winner will advance to fight Mexico’s great champion Canelo Alvarez in the month of May.

Alvarez will be ringside in Warren, OH to see who his next opponent will be.

“This is going to be one action packed WBC world championship fight with a very big fight on the horizon for the winner,”Dijo King. “They are both warriors and this war for the recognition of the homeless will start the new year in grand style, recognizing the homeless, and helping others.”

Makabu (28-2 con 25 KOs) is from the Democratic Republic of The Congo, defended his championship in his hometown of Kinshasa as he stopped Nigeria’s Olanrewaju Durodola with two solid left hooks in the seventh round last December.

Makabu, who has won his last nine decisions, won the vacant title on Jan. 31, 2020 in winning a unanimous decision against Michael Cieslak.

Thabiso (23-5, 13 KOs), who hails from South Africa and is nicknamed “The Rock”, became the WBC Silver Titlist with a unanimous decision over Denis Lebedev on Dec. 21, 2019. He last defended his title and scored another unanimous victory over Evgeny Tishchenko on March 27, 2021. Thabiso has won his last four fights.

Undefeated Polish cruiserweight prospect Adrian “Pretty Boy” Pinheiro Makes Nashville debut this Saturday

Adrian.jpeg
ORLANDO (Noviembre 22, 2021) – Undefeated Polish cruiserweight prospect Adrian “Pretty Boy” Pinheiro (5-0, 5 KOs) has taken an unusual route to Nashville, where he will take on veteran Eric Abraham (6-10, 3 KOs) this Saturday night in a 4-round bout at Municipal Auditorium.
The 24-year-old Pinheiro was born in Poland, grew up in Brazil, moved to Orlando and then up to Massachusetts for a job opportunity in security in Boston’s Seaport and Financial districts. He started boxing three years ago, rapidly developing into a Central New England Golden Gloves Novice super heavyweight champion, turning pro this past May in Orlando where he lives again.

“I’ve always been a fan of boxing,” Pinheiro explained, “but I didn’t box until I moved to the United States. I appreciate the art of boxing. I’m an exciting boxer who can mix it up. I fight on the outside or inside, depending on who I’m fighting, and adapting in the ring.

“My opponent is a southpaw, and he can be a little awkward. Va a ser una buena pelea. He’s more experienced than me, but I’m comfortable fighting a southpaw. I’m working to improve as an all-around fighter in every aspect, mentally and physically.”

The 6’ 4”, 200-pound Pinheiro will be fighting on the “Nashville Beatdown” card, presented by Lank The King & Lank Promotions, in association with Affiliation Management.

“’Pretty Boy’ is a boxer who looks like a model,” promoter Langston Hampton, Jr. comentado. “He’s real fast and swift. He has to be reckoned with because he’s a good, clean fighter. I’m one of the promoters involved with him. He made his pro debut May 8º on my show in Orlando. With his talent and looks, Adrian could be the next champion from Poland. The sky is the limit for him. It’s all about dedication. He has the talent in the ring and outside he’s very marketable. The Polish need a new champion and it’s going to be Adrian Pinheiro!"

Back living in Orlando and training at the Orlando Boxing Club, Pinheiro is an avid country music fan who is excited to be fighting in Nashville, the capital of country “his music.”

“I can’t wait to get to Nashville,” Pinheiro said. “I’m a huge country fan. This is special to me!"

“I’m excited about this young man,” Pinheiro’s manager/head trainer Tony Blanco remarked. “He’s a humble beast who works hard. He works out twice a day. My only problem with him is getting him out of the gym. He is the future!

“Adrian is a big country music fan. When the opportunity came to fight in Nashville, in front of Floyd Mayweather, Jr., he accepted right away.”
Polish boxing fans are known for their passion. Waving red and white Poland flags and singing loudly, they haven’t really had many fighters to follow in the United States since Andrew Golota and Tomasz Adamek. “Pretty Boy” would love to get support from his fellow Polish and Polish-Americans.

“I’ve heard a lot about them,” Pinheiro added. “Orlando doesn’t have much of a Polish community, but I hope that time will come. I love my people!"

With exceptional power and sublime technical skills, Ortiz (32-2, 27 KOs) has been a fixture atop heavyweight rankings for years, with his only defeats coming in memorable contests against former longtime heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder. Born in Camaguey, Cuba and trained by longtime coach Herman Caicedo in Miami, Ortiz won three bouts between Wilder contests, defeating Travis Kauffman, Christian Hammer and Razvan Cojanu. Prior to that run, Ortiz picked up victories over the likes of Bryant Jennings, Tony Thompson and Malik Scott to build up his heavyweight resume. Más recientemente, Ortiz blasted out Alexander Flores in the first round of their November 2020 fin.

“I can’t wait to give my fans in South Florida a great show on New Year’s Day and earn another shot at the heavyweight title,” dijo Ortiz. “Charles Martin is a good fighter, but he’s standing in my way. The only thing on my mind is getting in the ring and making a big statement in this fight to show again why I’m feared by the heavyweight division.”

The 35-year-old Martin (28-2-1, 25 KOs) se convirtió en campeón de peso pesado en enero 2016 cuando ganó por nocaut técnico contra el entonces invicto Vyacheslav Glazkov. Después de perder su título a Anthony Joshua, Martin has won five of his last six fights, con todas sus victorias viniendo dentro de la distancia. Originario de San. Louis, que ahora vive en Las Vegas y en la actualidad la formación en el sur de California con Manny Robles, Martin se recuperó de una derrota estrecha decisión de Adán en Kownacki 2018 to earn three-straight victories, including most recently knocking out Gerald Washington in February 2020.

“Nobody wants to fight me and nobody wants to fight Ortiz, so we’ll fight each other,” dijo Martin. “I’m going to show the world on January 1 why I deserve a title shot. I’ve paid my dues and I want my belt back. Beating Ortiz is going to get me one step closer to that goal. In order to become two-time heavyweight champion, I have to get past Ortiz first, so that’s exactly what I’m going to do.”

An amateur standout from his native Cuba, Sánchez (19-0, 13 KOs) now trains in San Diego with top trainer Eddy Reynoso. The 29-year-old has stayed busy on his rise up the heavyweight rankings, scoring three victories in 2020 as he earned a unanimous decision over Joey Dawejko and stopped Brian Howard and Julian Fernandez. Sanchez most recently scored a career-best win in October, dropping previously unbeaten Efe Ajagba on his way to a unanimous decision victory.

“I’m happy to be back so soon after beating Agjaba, but the work is only beginning,” dijo Sánchez. “There’s much more to be done. I believe I will be the first heavyweight champion in Cuban history. Negron is a strong, dangerous opponent. I’ll have to be my best, but I’m confident that I will come out victorious. I believe in my team, and my team believes in me. We’ll start the New Year off getting to 20-0, remain busy and make a strong case for a world title by year’s end.”

La 2008 Puerto Rican Olympian Negron (25-3, 20 KOs) rides a five-fight winning streak into January 1, including four wins by stoppage. The 34-year-old bounced back from defeats to Dominic Breazeale and Brian Howard to put together his win streak, which includes a March 2020 knockout over previously unbeaten Robert Alfonso. Negron has fought professionally since 2009 and now lives in Miami where he trains alongside Luis Ortiz.

“This is a great opportunity for me to get a win over a strong up-and-coming fighter and show everyone what I’m capable of,” said Negron. “I’m training hard and I’ve had great sparring in order to be ready for anything that Sanchez is going to bring. My experience and preparation are going to be the difference. I’m extremely motivated to give the fans a great fight and put myself in position to get a world title opportunity.”

Born in South Carolina and now fighting out of Los Angeles, Arroz (14-6-1, 10 KOs) will look to repeat a career-best performance in the rematch against Coffie, after he stopped the previously unbeaten fighter in the fifth-round in July. Rice won six of seven fights from 2018 a través de 2019 before a pair of losses in 2020 against then unbeatens Efe Ajagba and Demsey McKean. In a pro career that dates back to 2014, the blemishes on Rice’s records have all come against previously unbeaten fighters.

“In my last fight against Coffie, I went in there to prove myself and do what I had been training to do,” said Rice. “It was sink or swim, and I came out on top. Now I have to go out there on January 1 and show that it wasn’t a fluke. This is a great stage for me to display my talents and prove that I’m capable of big things. I’m looking to give the fans a great performance and I know that Coffie is doing the same. Don’t miss this fight.”

Coffie (12-1, 9 KOs) hopes to bounce back from his first career defeat after dropping the first matchup against Rice in July. A Marine Corps veteran who picked up boxing after returning from overseas, Coffie quickly impressed in amateur tournaments enough to earn sparring assignments with Deontay Wilder and Adam Kownacki. He was born in the Bronx, but now trains in Orlando, Florida and broke through in 2020 with three dominating stoppage victories, including knockouts over previously unbeaten opponents Darmani Rock and Luis Pena.

“I want to get it back and make it an actual fight this time against Jonny Rice,” said Coffie. "La última vez, I was in a position where I faced some adversity, and I had to make a decision to go through with the fight. I know that I can fight through adversity, and on January 1, I will be ready for whatever way the fight goes. En enero 1, there will be a fight.”

Washington (20-4-1, 13 KOs) es una y seis de seis pies contendiente de peso pesado que era un ex estrella de fútbol americano universitario en la Universidad del Sur de California y una U.S. veterano de la Marina. Nacido en San José, California, Washington most recently lost a contest against former heavyweight champion Charles Martin in February 2020. Antes de esa pelea, Washington had delivered a knockout of veteran contender Robert Helenius in July 2019. Washington fue invicto en su primera 19 pro fights before dropping his world title challenge to Deontay Wilder in February 2017.

“I’m looking forward to stepping back in the ring on January 1,” dijo que Washington. “I’m ready to go to work and get myself back in position for some big time fights. Mi experiencia va a ser la diferencia en esta lucha. It’s going to be a great night of heavyweight action!”

La 2016 Olympian for Turkey, Demirezen (14-1, 11 KOs) has fought out of Hamburg, Germany in the professional ranks since turning pro in late 2016. The 31-year-old won his first 11 peleas como profesional, including a second round stoppage of Rad Rashid to capture a European heavyweight title in 2018. Demirezen made his only other U.S. comienza en 2019, when he became the first person to go the distance against Efe Ajagba, losing by decision. Since that defeat, Demirezen has scored three-straight victories, most recently stopping Nikola Milacic in March.

“I learned a lot from my loss to Ajagba and I’m looking forward to getting another chance to box in the U.S.,” said Demirezen. “I’m still angry about the Ajagba fight, because I know that I could have won. I want to show now that I belong on this stage. I’m proud to be in this position to show what I can do and I’m going to make the most of the opportunity.”

The 29-year-old Faust (8-0, 6 KOs) turned pro in February 2020 after an extensive amateur career fighting out of his native Svitlovodsk, Ucrania. Faust knocked out his first four opponents, before winning dominant six and eight round decisions. After a first round knockout over previously unbeaten Jacek Piatek in May, Faust made his U.S. debut in October, dropping Mike Marshall twice on his way to a third-round TKO victory.

“I’m really excited to be back fighting in the U.S. again on January 1,” said Faust. “I’ve been welcomed warmly and fighting stateside already feels like my living room. I love the atmosphere. This is a great chance to show myself on this pay-per-view show against a very high-quality opponent. I won’t disappoint fans when I step into the ring.”

Kiladze (27-5-1, 19 KOs) returned to the win column in September, with a knockout victory over Mathew McKinney. Since he began fighting stateside full time in 2017, Kiladze’s losses have come against top heavyweights Adam Kownacki, Michael Hunter, Efe Ajagba and Joe Joyce, who sported a combined 45-1 record heading into their matchups against Kiladze. Originally from Georgia and now fighting out of Los Angeles, Kiladze owns a 2019 draw against then unbeaten Robert Alfonso and won six straight fights between 2014 y 2018.

“I’ll be ready on fight night and I’ll be focused,” said Kiladze. “I’m grateful for the opportunity and training hard to put on a good performance and leave the ring with a victory.”

Gilberto “Zurdo” Ramirez says Dmitry Bivol now has nowhere to run

Deja un comentario
zurdo posed.jpg

LAS VEGAS (Noviembre 17, 2021) – Frustrated by Dmitry Bivol’s silence, even after Team Zurdo and Golden Boy Promotions sent the World Boxing Association (AMB) Light Heavyweight World Super Champion a legitimate contract offer, Gilberto “Zurdo” Ramirez now has a clear path to his first World title shot in the light heavyweight division.

Ramírez (42-0, 28 KOs) has been matched against Yunieski “The Monster” Gonzalez (21-3, 17 KOs) en diciembre 18 en San Antonio (TX) in the official WBA Light Heavyweight Title Eliminator to determine Bivol’s mandatory challenger.

“I’m excited to end the year with this eliminator bout,"Ramírez dijo. “This is the path I’ve been planning for and I’m very humbled and honored to be in this position. The WBA is a great organization and I appreciate Mr. Gilberto Mendoza for allowing me to be in this position.”

búfalo (18-0, 11 KOs) expressed his desire to fight Ramirez before and after the latter knocked out Sullivan Barrera (22-3, 14 KOs) this past this past July. Suddenly, aunque, Matchroom Boxing’s Eddie Hearns claimed that Bivol would instead fight John Ryder next month in the United Kingdom, and then target WBA and WBC Super Middleweight Champion“Saúl “Canelo” Álvarez (56-1-2, 38 KOs), at either 168 o 175 libra.

“I was surprised when Bivol turned down the fight we offered because it was something I thought he wanted. I know he’s a tough warrior and aspires to be the best, which is why I was surprised. He publicly called me out and sand that he was ‘ready.’ But unfortunately, that doesn’t seem to be the case on his end. De nuevo, en el boxeo, this seems like a common scenario where a fighter barks and barks, but he can’t back it up when it’s time to fight. Con esta lucha (vs. González) in place, Bivol has nowhere to run, and he will eventually have to face me.

“I’m not sure why Bivol thinks Canelo will face him in the near future. The probability of that happening within the next three fights is very, very low for him. Tristemente, I think he’s just the cannon fodder for this scenario.”

The first Mexican to capture the World super middleweight title, “Zurdo” has waited too long to risk his first World title opportunity in the 175-pound division to look past the dangerous Gonzalez’ (21-3, 17 KOs). Ramirez and Gonzalez, respectivamente, are rated No. 3 y n. 4 por la AMB, and their 12-round main event will headline a Golden Boy-promoted card to be streamed live on DAZN.
