Paul-Woodley II “Leave No Doubt” To Take Place At AMALIE Arena in Tampa, Fla., Live pada SHOWTIME PPV®

NEW YORK - Desember 6, 2021 -International superstarJake “Anak Bermasalah” Paulwill face former MMA world championTyron "The Chosen One" 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., pada hari Sabtu, Bulan Desember 18 (9p ET/6p PT).

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

“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, siapa yang 4-0 as a pro boxer with three knockouts. “Troy, Trey, Trevor, Travis. I don’t give a damn who it is. Jadi, 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.”


Agustus 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. Para hakim mencetak pertarungan 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.

“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.”

Bertarung di St. Louis, Mo., Woodley (19-7-1 MMA record) has a storied career in combat sports. He became UFC champion in July 2016, defeating Robbie Lawler in the first round, and went on to defend his title successfully four times.

LOS ANGELES (Bulan Desember 5, 2021) –Superstar tinju dan juara dunia lima kali Gervonta “Tank” Davis tunjukkan keterampilan tinjunya, memenangkan keputusan bulat 12 ronde yang meriah atas yang tanpa henti Isaac "Pitbull" Cruz untuk mempertahankan Gelar Juara Dunia Ringan WBA-nya di depan para pemain bertabur bintang, terjual habis 15,850 di STAPLES Center langsung di SHOWTIME Bayar-Per-Tampilan, dalam acara yang dipersembahkan oleh Premier Boxing Champions.

Scorecard baca 116-112 dan dua skor 115-113, semua untuk Davis.

Suasana di arena adalah listrik, dengan sejumlah bintang NBA saat ini dan mantan yang hadir, termasuk Earvin “Magic” Johnson, Kawhi Leonard, Dwight Howard, Kenny Smith, Kevin Garnett dan Paul Pierce antara lain.

Didampingi oleh rapper superstar Lil Durk, Davis memasuki ring dengan warna ungu dan emas Laker; jumbai di sepanjang kopernya dengan nomor mendiang Kobe Bryant "8" dan "24" di setiap sisinya. Cruz merayakan warisan Meksikonya dengan band mariachi di belakangnya saat dia melangkah menuju ring.

Tidak ada proses perasaan keluar pada awalnya. Cruz menyerang sang juara bertahan, menjepitnya ke tali dan meratap.

“Itu gayaku. 'Pitbull' akan selalu menyerang,"Kata Cruz. “Saya pikir kami mempertahankan ritme dari awal hingga akhir.”

Davis menemukan ritmenya di set kedua dan ketiga, mengitari ring dan membawa Cruz ke tembakan. Di keempat, Cruz memusatkan serangannya pada tubuh, menumbuk tulang rusuk Davis.

Penduduk asli Baltimore berusia 27 tahun itu menyalakan listrik di kuarter keempat, bergantian antara hook kanan dan umpan silang kiri di belakang kuda-kuda kidalnya. Pukulan yang lebih menghukum datang dari Davis selama yang kelima.

“Dia petarung yang lebih pendek, jadi saya lempar ke atas kepalanya,"Kata Davis. “Aku memukulnya dengan buku jariku dan mengacaukannya. Aku menyakiti tanganku pada ronde keenam. Tidak peduli apakah lawannya lebih tinggi atau lebih pendek, Aku harus melewatinya. Dia seorang pejuang. Meskipun dia tidak menang, seorang bintang lahir malam ini.”

“Saat itu sekitar ronde kelima saya melihat tangannya tidak bekerja dengan benar,Cruz mengamati.

Davis bertinju dengan indah di ronde tengah, menembakkan tembakan cepat dan berputar menjauh dari tembakan balasan. Pukulan kanan di pukulan kedelapan secara singkat membuat Cruz berdengung dan membuat penonton berdiri. Tapi tepat ketika itu tampak seolah-olah pertarungan itu menghilang, Cruz melawan api dengan api, mendaratkan pukulan flush beberapa detik sebelum bel.

Petenis Meksiko berusia 23 tahun itu meningkatkan kecepatannya di ronde-ronde terakhir, menjaga Davis tetap waspada dan berdebar-debar. Davis memegang miliknya sendiri, melawan balik secara seimbang sampai pertarungan berakhir.

Tentu saja, Cruz percaya dia pantas menang.

"Hidup Mexico. Saya tidak punya apa-apa untuk dikatakan, para penggemar berbicara tentang siapa yang memenangkan pertarungan ini,"Dia berkata.

Setelah sukses mempertahankan gelar, Davis mengatakan dia siap untuk semua pendatang.

"LA., kami melakukannya untuk Kobe,"Kata Davis. “Di awal pertarungan, dia datang dengan kuat. Saya merasa saat pertarungan sedang berlangsung, dia sedang mogok. Tapi tanganku terluka, jadi saya tidak bisa mengeluarkannya dari sana.

“Kesempatan apa pun yang terbaik untukku, Aku akan melakukannya. Semuanya adalah pekerjaan mudah. Saya anjing teratas. ”

Dalam acara co-main, Sebastian "Menjulang Inferno" Fundora bergerak lebih dekat ke perebutan gelar dunia dengan keputusan bulat 12 ronde atas yang sebelumnya tak terkalahkan Sergio Garcia dalam Eliminator Gelar Kelas Welter Super WBC.

Skor akhir dibaca 118-110, 117-111 dan 115-113.

Fundora membentuk kontrol dengan cepat di awal, mematahkan kepala Garcia dari Spanyol dengan pukulan kiri yang menggelegar. Keduanya berdagang secara merata melalui putaran awal. Garcia memiliki momennya, termasuk pukulan overhand yang tajam pada pukulan kelima yang mengeluarkan darah dari hidung Fundora.

Fundora yang berusia 23 tahun menemukan jangkauannya di urutan keenam, memompa jab dan menggunakan bingkai 6-kaki-5 dan jangkauan 80-inci untuk menjaga Garcia di teluk.

“Aku lebih sering menggunakan jarak. Saya ingin menampilkan sesuatu yang berbeda dari biasanya,Kata Fundora. “Tinggi jelas merupakan perbedaan dalam pertarungan ini.”

Garcia berjuang untuk mendarat di babak kedua pertarungan, simpan untuk beberapa saat di 12th ketika kedua kombatan berdiri kaki-ke-kaki.

“Mungkin segalanya bisa berbeda jika saya lebih agresif dari awal,Kata Garcia. "Aku seharusnya tidak membiarkan diriku terbawa oleh apa yang dia lakukan."

Fundora yakin dia siap untuk perebutan gelar dunia.

“Kami baru saja mengalahkan No. 2 di WBC, jadi kita punya No.1, dan kami memiliki juara,Kata Fundora. “Siapa pun yang mereka berikan selanjutnya, kami siap.”

Dalam mendebarkan bolak-balik, Carlos Adames (21-1, 16 Biaya) mengatasi tantangan berat dari mantan penantang gelar dunia Sergiy Derevyanchenko (13-4, 10 Biaya) untuk memenangkan keputusan mayoritas 10 ronde dalam Eliminator Gelar Dunia Kelas Menengah WBC mereka.

Kedua kombatan memiliki momen mereka, tapi menghadapi lawan terberat dalam karirnya, Adames yang berusia 27 tahun bersinar. Seorang juri menilai pertarungan kelas menengah bahkan pada 95-95, sementara dua lainnya mencetak gol untuk Adames dengan skor 96-94 dan 97-93.

“Ini sangat berarti bagi saya dalam karir saya dan ini adalah pencapaian besar menang melawan petinju sekalibernya,” kata Adames, yang lahir di Republik Dominika dan bertarung di Washington Heights di New York City.

“Saya agresif dan cepat secara alami, jadi saya datang siap untuk melakukan pekerjaan saya. Dia mulai lambat, ingin melihat apa yang akan terjadi, dan hanya memiliki rencana permainan yang salah. Dia sedikit lelah saat pertarungan berlangsung, mengambil banyak pukulan keras dari saya dan terbukti bahwa saya menyebabkan banyak kerusakan padanya.”

“Saya berharap lawan saya bertarung dengan gaya yang sama. Itu tidak ada yang istimewa bagi saya, hanya pertarungan kualitas,"Kata Derevyanchenko.

“Dia tetap kidal, itulah perbedaan dalam pertarungan. Saya tidak tahu apa yang akan saya lakukan selanjutnya. Saya perlu sedikit istirahat dan kemudian saya akan kembali ke gym karena saya suka tinju dan saya suka pertunjukannya.”

“Ini memberi saya kesempatan untuk melanjutkan,” kata Adames. “Saya mendominasi di keduanya 154 dan 160, jadi di mana pun mereka memberi saya kesempatan untuk memperjuangkan kejuaraan, di situlah saya akan pergi.”

Dalam pertarungan pembukaan siaran SHOWTIME PPV, penantang kelas bulu super Eduardo "Kiri" Ramirez (26-2-3, 12 Biaya) berada dalam bentuk puncak, memenangkan keputusan bulat 10 ronde yang lebar atas mantan penantang gelar dunia Miguel Marriaga.

“Saya ingin mengucapkan terima kasih kepada para penggemar, SHOWTIME dan keluarga Montiel yang telah mendukung saya. Marriaga adalah lawan yang tangguh, tapi aku berhasil mendominasi,” kata Ramirez. “Saya memiliki gaya bertarung yang bervariasi dan membuatnya tetap waspada sepanjang waktu.”

Marriaga (30-5, 26 Biaya) adalah agresor di seluruh, khususnya di ronde pertama saat ia mendukung Ramirez dengan pukulan kombinasi. Yang terakhir menemukan jangkauannya di tengah bingkai, memanfaatkan jab yang akurat. Dalam ketiga, sebuah hook kanan diikuti oleh sebuah pukulan overhand kiri membuat Marriaga tidak seimbang untuk sebuah pukulan knockdown.
“Kami memulai dengan kuat, tapi kemudian segalanya menjadi semakin sulit. Setelah mengatakan itu, kami senang dengan pekerjaan yang kami lakukan hari ini,” kata Marriaga. “Kita seharusnya lebih cerdas, tetapi kami berusaha sekuat tenaga dalam menghadapi peluang besar yang sayangnya tidak dapat kami manfaatkan.”

Ramirez mendominasi setelah mencetak knockdown, menghukum Marriaga sejak saat itu dengan berbagai macam tembakan ke kepala dan tubuh. Statistik pukulan terakhir membuat Ramirez mendarat 280 dari 762 (36.7%) pukulan total untuk Marriaga 159 dari 689 (21.3%).

“Sekarang saya akan bersantai dengan keluarga saya dan menikmati liburan,” kata Ramirez. “Kalau begitu semoga 2022 akan datang dengan tembakan judul untuk saya.”

Acara bayar-per-tayang blockbuster malam ini akan ditayangkan ulang pada SHOWTIME Sabtu ini, Bulan Desember 11 di 10 p.m. ET / PT. Siaran tertunda dari Davis vs. Cruz akan membuka siaran yang menampilkan Juara Dunia Kelas Bantam WBC dan Hall of Famer masa depan Nonito Donaire saat ia akan mempertahankan gelarnya melawan penantang teratas yang tak terkalahkan dan rekan senegaranya asal Filipina Reymart Gaballo yang menjadi headline dalam acara Premier Boxing Champions dari Dignity Health Tennis Stadium di Carson.

Tornado goes to the movies: rocky iV remastered review

oleh: Tony “the Tornado” Penecale (di atas)

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. Usually, 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 usedSweetest Victorywhich 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. Faktanya, a lot of Brigitte Nielsen’s dialogue was cut. Could it be because of herrockyrelationship with Stallone?


4) The reasoning for Apollo to take the fight was improved. Iya Nih, 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 linesI didn’t say anything about snails, I said Nails N-N-Nailsbut 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 (when I was 9 tua tahun) 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. This one, 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. Wow. 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, Nyonya. Drago talking about her husband, dan sebagainya). 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 oneRocky IV Take III: The Tornado Cut

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

Desember. 18th in Webster, Massachusetts

ME Poster.jpg

WORCESTER, Massa. (November 29, 2021) – The rematch of the unofficial 2021 New England Fight of the Year will headline the December 18th “New England Future VIII” event, disajikan oleh Rivera Promosi Entertainment (RPE), highlighting Webster’s (MA) first professional boxing event in 27 tahun, at Webster Town Hall.

Puerto Rico-native Wilfredo “El Sucaro” Pagan (6-1-1, 3 Biaya), fighting out of Southbridge (MA), and Bridgeport’s (CT) Carlos Marrero, AKU AKU AKU (2-6-2), fought to an entertaining 6-round split draw this past August 14th di Worcester (MA).

“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.18th 6-acara utama putaran.

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, dan 57-57. The scoring was originally announced as a split-decision win for Marrero but, dalam retrospeksi, both fighters have taken the emotional outcome changes in stride. Some fuel, meskipun, 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, I dominated, but I didn’t get the decision. Anything can happen when it goes into the judges’ hands. The judges didn’t see me winning, boleh saja, 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. Ini adalah apa itu, boleh saja, 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,"Kata 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 18th."

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, iya nih, 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, semoga, di Desember 18th 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. Secara Fisik, I’m a lot stronger and sharper. The key for me is being mentally prepared and sharper. Nya (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, Saya bilang iya. 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.”

Dalam acara co-fitur, Danbury (CT) super lightweight Omar “The Beast” Bordoy (11-1, 3 Biaya) faces an opponent to be determined in the 6-round match.

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

Worcester super middleweight Bobby “BH3” Harris, AKU AKU AKU (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 Biaya), a 3-time N.E. Juara Sarung Emas, has been added to the card in a 4-round bout against TBA.

Worcester middleweight Eslih Owusu (6-0, 4 Biaya), a native of Ghana, faces Anthony Everett (1-0), dari Lawrence, in a 4-rounder.

Don King Returns to Ohio to Present WBC Cruiserweight Champion Fight on Saturday, Jan. 29 Pitting Makabu & Mchunu

Dkp
DEERFIELD BEACH, FL (November 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, OH. In addition to Makabus-Mchunu, a special 10-round heavyweight sensational attraction will pit undefeated Jonathan Guidry (18-0-2, 10 Biaya) of Dulac, Louisiana risking his perfect record against Alonzo Butler (34-3-2, 25 Biaya) of Chattanooga, TN.

Raja, 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,” said 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 dengan 25 Biaya) 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 Biaya), 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 (November 22, 2021) – Undefeated Polish cruiserweight prospect Adrian “Pretty Boy” Pinheiro (5-0, 5 Biaya) has taken an unusual route to Nashville, where he will take on veteran Eric Abraham (6-10, 3 Biaya) 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. Ini akan menjadi pertarungan yang bagus. 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. berkomentar. “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 8th 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 Biaya) 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. Baru-baru ini, Ortiz blasted out Alexander Flores in the first round of their November 2020 akhir.

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,” kata 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 Biaya) menjadi juara kelas berat pada bulan Januari 2016 ketika ia dimenangkan oleh TKO melawan Vyacheslav Glazkov yang tidak terkalahkan. Setelah kehilangan gelarnya dari Anthony Joshua, Martin has won five of his last six fights, dengan semua kemenangannya datang dari kejauhan. Berasal dari St. Louis, sekarang tinggal di Las Vegas dan saat ini berlatih di California Selatan bersama Manny Robles, Martin bangkit kembali dari kekalahan tipis dari Adam 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,” kata 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 Biaya) 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,” kata Sanchez. “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.

Itu 2008 Puerto Rican Olympian Negron (25-3, 20 Biaya) 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, Rice (14-6-1, 10 Biaya) 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 melalui 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 Biaya) 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. "Terakhir kali, 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. Pada Januari 1, there will be a fight.

Washington (20-4-1, 13 Biaya) adalah pesaing kelas berat enam kaki enam yang dulunya adalah pemain sepak bola perguruan tinggi yang menonjol di University of Southern California dan A.S. Veteran angkatan laut. Lahir di San Jose, California, Washington most recently lost a contest against former heavyweight champion Charles Martin in February 2020. Prior to that fight, Washington had delivered a knockout of veteran contender Robert Helenius in July 2019. Washington tidak terkalahkan dalam yang pertama 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,” mengatakan Washington. “I’m ready to go to work and get myself back in position for some big time fights. Pengalaman saya akan menjadi perbedaan dalam laga ini. It’s going to be a great night of heavyweight action!”

A 2016 Olympian for Turkey, Demirezen (14-1, 11 Biaya) has fought out of Hamburg, Germany in the professional ranks since turning pro in late 2016. The 31-year-old won his first 11 perkelahian pro, including a second round stoppage of Rad Rashid to capture a European heavyweight title in 2018. Demirezen made his only other U.S. memulai 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 Biaya) turned pro in February 2020 after an extensive amateur career fighting out of his native Svitlovodsk, Ukraina. 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 Biaya) 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 dan 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

zurdo posed.jpg

LAS VEGAS (November 17, 2021) – Frustrated by Dmitry Bivol’s silence, even after Team Zurdo and Golden Boy Promotions sent the World Boxing Association (WBA) 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.

Ramirez (42-0, 28 Biaya) has been matched against Yunieski “The Monster” Gonzalez (21-3, 17 Biaya) di Desember 18 di 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,” Ramirez said. “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.”

Kerbau (18-0, 11 Biaya) expressed his desire to fight Ramirez before and after the latter knocked out Sullivan Barrera (22-3, 14 Biaya) this past this past July. Suddenly, meskipun, 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“Saul “Canelo” Alvarez (56-1-2, 38 Biaya), at either 168 atau 175 pon.

“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. Lagi, dalam tinju, 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. Dengan laga ini (vs. Gonzalez) 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. Kurang sehat, 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 Biaya). Ramirez and Gonzalez, masing-masing, are rated No. 3 dan Tidak. 4 oleh WBA, and their 12-round main event will headline a Golden Boy-promoted card to be streamed live on DAZN.
