I don’t give a damn who it is. Così, 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.

**LOS ANGELES** (Dicembre 5, 2021) –Boxing superstar and five-time world champion Gervonta “Tank” Davis put his boxing skills on display, winning a rousing 12-round round unanimous decision over the relentless **Isacco "Pitbull" Cruz** to retain his WBA Lightweight World Title in front of a star-studded, sellout crowd of 15,850 at STAPLES Center live on SHOWTIME Pay-Per-View, in un evento presentato da Premier Boxing Champions.

Scorecards leggere 116-112 and two scores of 115-113, all for Davis.

The atmosphere in the arena was electric, with scores of current and former NBA stars in attendance, including Earvin “Magic” Johnson, Kawhi Leonard, Dwight Howard, Kenny Smith, Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce among others.

Accompanied by superstar rapper Lil Durk, Davis entered the ring in Laker purple and gold; tassels along his trunks with the late Kobe Bryant’s number “8” and “24” on each side. Cruz celebrated his Mexican heritage with a mariachi band behind him as he strode toward the ring.

There was no feeling-out process in the first. Cruz charged at the defending champion, pinning him against the ropes and wailing away.

“That’s my style. ‘Pitbull’ is always going to be on the attack,", Ha detto Cruz. “I think we retained rhythm from the start to the end.”

Davis found his rhythm in the second and third, circling the ring and walking Cruz into shots. In the fourth, Cruz concentrated his attack on the body, pounding Davis’ ribs.

The 27-year-old Baltimore native turned on the power in the fourth, alternating between the right hook and left cross behind his southpaw stance. More punishing blows came from Davis during the fifth.

“He’s a shorter fighter, so I was throwing down on the top of his head,"Ha detto Davis. “I hit him with my knuckle and messed it up. Mi sono fatto male alla mano nel sesto round. No matter if the opponent is taller or shorter, I’ve got to get through it. E 'un guerriero. Even though he didn’t win, a star was born tonight.”

“It was right around the fifth round I saw that his hand wasn’t working correctly,” Cruz observed.

Davis boxed beautifully in the middle rounds, firing quick shots and pivoting away from the return fire. A right hook in the eighth briefly buzzed Cruz and brought the audience to their feet. But just when it appeared as if the fight was slipping away, Cruz fought fire with fire, landing a flush uppercut seconds before the bell.

The 23-year-old Mexican picked up the pace in the latter rounds, keeping Davis on his toes and pounding away. Davis held his own, fighting back on even terms until the fight’s end.

Naturalmente, Cruz believed he deserved the victory.

“Viva Mexico. I have nothing to say, the fans are speaking on who won this fight,"Lui ha detto.

Following a successful title defense, Davis said he’s ready for all comers.

“L.A., we did it for Kobe,"Ha detto Davis. “At the beginning of the fight, he came on strong. I felt as the fight was going, he was breaking down. But I hurt my hand, so I wasn’t able to get him out of there.

“Whatever the best opportunity is for me, I’ll do it. All of them guys are easy work. I’m the top dog.”

In caso di co-main, **Sebastian “Towering Inferno” Fundora** moved closer to a world title shot with a 12-round unanimous decision over the previously-unbeaten **Sergio Garcia** in a WBC Super Welterweight Title Eliminator.

Final scores read 118-110, 117-111 e 115-113.

Fundora established control quickly in the first, snapping Spain’s Garcia’s head back with a booming left. The two traded evenly through the early rounds. Garcia had his moments, including a sharp overhand right in the fifth that drew blood from Fundora’s nose.

The 23-year-old Fundora found his range in the sixth, pumping the jab and using his 6-foot-5 frame and 80-inch reach to keep Garcia at bay.

“I was using my distance a lot more. I wanted to display something different than what I’m used to,” said Fundora. “Height was definitely a difference in this fight.”

Garcia struggled to land during the second half of the bout, save for a couple moments in the 12^th when the two combatants stood toe-to-toe.

“Maybe things could have been different if I had been more aggressive from the beginning,", ha detto Garcia. “I shouldn’t have let myself get carried away by what he was doing.”

Fundora believes he’s ready for a world title shot.

“We just beat the No. 2 nel WBC, so we have No.1, and we have the champion,” said Fundora. “Whoever they give us next, we’re ready for.”

In a thrilling back and forth, **Carlos Adames** (21-1, 16 KO) overcame a stiff challenge from former world title challenger **Sergiy Derevyanchenko** (13-4, 10 KO) to win a 10-round majority decision in their WBC Middleweight World Title Eliminator.

Both combatants had their moments, but facing the toughest opponent of his career, the 27-year-old Adames shined. One judge scored the middleweight bout even at 95-95, while the other two scored it for Adames by scores of 96-94 e 97-93.

“This means a lot for me in my career and this is a big accomplishment winning against a fighter of his caliber,” said Adames, who was born in the Dominican Republic and fights out of Washington Heights in New York City.

“I am aggressive and speedy by nature, so I came in ready to do my thing. He started slow, wanting to see what would happen, and simply had the wrong game plan. He got a bit tired as the fight went on, took a lot of hard shots from me and it was evident that I caused him a lot of damage.”

“I expect my opponent to fight the same style. It was nothing special for me, just a quality fight,"Ha dichiarato Derevyanchenko.

“He stayed southpaw, that was the difference in the fight. I don’t know what I’ll do next. I need a little bit of rest and then I will go back to the gym because I love boxing and I love the show.”

“This gives me an opportunity to move on,” said Adames. “I dominate at both 154 e 160, so wherever they give me the opportunity to fight for a championship is where I’ll go.”

In the opening bout of the SHOWTIME PPV telecast, super featherweight contender **Eduardo “Zurdito” Ramirez** (26-2-3, 12 KO) was in peak form, winning a wide 10-round unanimous decision over former world title challenger **Miguel Marriaga**.

“I would like to thank the fans, SHOWTIME and the Montiel family for supporting me. Marriaga was a tough opponent, but I managed to dominate,” said Ramirez. “I had a varied fighting style and kept him on his toes the whole time.”

Marriaga (30-5, 26 KO) was the aggressor throughout, particularly in the first round as he backed Ramirez up with combination punching. The latter found his range midway through the frame, utilizing an accurate jab. In the third, a right hook followed by an overhand left floored an off-balance Marriaga for a flash knockdown.
“We started out strong, but then things got progressively harder. Having said that, we are pleased with the work we put in today,” said Marriaga. “We should have been more savvy, but we tried our hardest in the face of a great opportunity that unfortunately we could not take advantage of.”

Ramirez dominated after scoring the knockdown, punishing Marriaga from then on with an assortment of shots to the head and body. Final punch stats had Ramirez landing 280 di 762 (36.7%) total punches to Marriaga’s 159 fuori da 689 (21.3%).

“Now I’m going to relax with my family and enjoy the holidays,” said Ramirez. “Then hopefully 2022 will come with a title shot for me.”

Tonight’s blockbuster pay-per-view event will re-air on SHOWTIME this Saturday, Dicembre 11 a 10 p.m. ET / PT. The delayed telecast of Davis vs. Cruz will open the telecast featuring WBC Bantamweight World Champion and future Hall of Famer Nonito Donaire as he will defend his title against undefeated top contender and fellow Filipino countryman Reymart Gaballo headlining in a Premier Boxing Champions event from Dignity Health Tennis Stadium in Carson.

Tornado va al cinema: recensione rimasterizzata di Rocky iV

Dicembre 2, 2021 FNU47 Lascia un commento

da: Tony “il tornado” Penecale (sopra)

Ecco la mia recensione del film Rocky vs Drago più una foto con la locandina del film. Indovina chi è uscito con esso!

Così ieri sera sono andato a vedere il film Director's Cut di Rocky vs Drago.

qui ci sono 2 spoiler che non dovrebbero essere spoiler. Apollo muore ancora e Rocky vince ancora.

Quindi il film aveva circa 40 minuti di nuovo filmato. Inoltre ha mantenuto all'incirca lo stesso tempo di esecuzione, quindi con 40 minuti di nuovo filmato, c'è quasi 40 minuti di filmati omessi.

Adesso qualche spoiler. Se non vuoi che nulla sia rovinato, Ti consiglio di smettere di leggere qui.

C'erano due inquadrature che speravo davvero sarebbero state montate per questo film, ma in qualche modo ce l'hanno fatta. Li raggiungo più tardi.

Quindi analizzerò alcune delle modifiche/aggiunte/omissioni e darò i miei pensieri.

1) Nuova apertura. Generalmente, inizia con il titolo ROCKY che scorre in basso fino a uno dei brani caratteristici della serie. Poi irrompe nell'ultimo round del film precedente. Questo film inizia con varie clip di Rocky 3 inclusa la sconfitta di Rocky contro Clubber Lang, Apollo gli dice di non andare in pensione, e la scena della lotta climatica. Omette completamente la sessione di sparring di Rocky e Apollo. Non ero un fan della nuova apertura. Sono abituato alle normali aperture dei film che durano 2-3 minuti e prepara il terreno per la nuova puntata. Non ero un fan della canzone che usavano “Vittoria più dolce” che è nella colonna sonora di Rocky IV ma mai usato nell'originale.

2) Nessun robot. Anche se questo era visto come un incrocio tra banale e raccapricciante (La ragazza di Paulie?), l'omissione del robot, probabilmente a causa di accordi di licenza, significava che molte scene con Paulie o Rocky Jr dovevano essere tagliate, inclusa la scena del compleanno di Paulie.

3) La nuova conferenza stampa di presentazione di Drago spiega che hanno cercato di organizzare uno scontro con Rocky. Ho pensato che fosse buono, ma hanno tagliato fuori la moglie di Drago paragonandolo a Popeye che mangia spinaci. Infatti, molti dialoghi di Brigitte Nielsen sono stati tagliati. Potrebbe essere a causa sua? “roccioso” relazione con Stallone?

4) Il motivo per cui Apollo ha combattuto è stato migliorato. Sì, si presenta ancora dal nulla e parte della scena del tavolo doveva essere tagliata (nessun robot, ricordare) ma hanno parlato di come Rocky abbia ignorato la sfida e Apollo abbia sentito il bisogno di accettarla.

5) Pensavo che l'omissione dell'intera scena del camerino prima del combattimento con Rocky e Apollo fosse un errore. Non solo taglia una delle mie battute preferite “Non ho detto niente sulle lumache, Ho detto Nails N-N-Nails” ma mostra l'eccessiva sicurezza di Apollo e la trepidazione di Rocky. L'unica parte della scena originale del camerino che è assurda è dove Rocky stava cercando di convincere Apollo a rimandare. Sul serio, chi rimanda 5 minuti prima dell'orario previsto per raggiungere il ring?

6) La lotta Creed-Drago è stata notevolmente migliorata. Tranne per l'inquadratura che hanno lasciato dall'originale in cui Apollo chiaramente non indossa i guanti. Hanno perso quella modifica la prima volta. Come hanno fatto a perderlo di nuovo?? La lotta è stata estesa e Apollo si è alzato dopo un atterramento anticipato e ha continuato a provare a contrattaccare.

7) Il funerale di Apollo è stato esteso e migliorato con la figura paterna Duke che ha tenuto un discorso e Rocky che ha tenuto un discorso più emozionante.

8) La scena con la commissione di boxe che non sanciva il combattimento tra Rocky e Drago è stata inclusa come mostrato nell'originale 1985 trailer ma tagliato da quel film.

9) La scena di Rocky che parla con suo figlio prima di partire è stata ampliata e migliorata.

10) I montaggi di allenamento sono stati leggermente modificati e alcune modifiche alle scene in Russia.

11) Il combattimento finale è stato comunque divertente. C'erano alcuni elementi aggiunti ad esso.

12) Due dei migliori discorsi dei film sono stati cambiati in voci fuori campo. Apollo nel camerino dicendo a Rocky che avrebbe capito quando sarebbe finito è stato cambiato in voce fuori campo nella testa di Rocky. L'epico discorso ad Adrian in cui ha detto che Drago avrebbe dovuto ucciderlo per picchiarlo è stato anche cambiato in una voce fuori campo interiore. Penso decisamente che sia stato un errore perché toglie il fascino di vedere le espressioni facciali di Apollo e Rocky rispettivamente mentre dicevano quelle linee.

13) Il momento prima della fase finale quando il manager di Drago è corso dal suo posto in balcone con il Cremlino per rimproverare Drago nel suo angolo. Speravo che se una scena fosse stata tagliata, sarebbe quello. Preferirei che ci fosse una scena in cui Paulie sposa il robot e annuncia di essere incinta piuttosto che questa scena. l'ho odiato in 1985 (quando ero 9 anni) e lo odio adesso. C'è 60 secondi tra i round di un incontro di boxe. Quest'uomo è scappato dal balcone, tra la folla, arrivato all'angolo di Drago, e lo ha rimproverato in meno di un minuto. Drago, per aver sopportato 14 giri punitivi, è in grado di alzarsi in piedi e sollevarlo con un braccio prima di lasciarlo cadere dal grembiule. Parla di prendersi delle serie libertà.

14) La lotta finisce. Ti abitui al modo in cui finisce un combattimento di Rocky. Segna il grande knockdown, il suo avversario fa fatica ad alzarsi, e alla fine ricade quando il conteggio raggiunge 10. Questo, Drago va giù, fa una mossa per rialzarsi, una caduta piatta. L'arbitro si ferma senza contare affatto. Ho anche odiato il salto di Rocky alla fine. Nell'originale, fu sollevato in aria mentre se ne stava lì esausto da trionfante. Questo sembra che sia in grado di fare un tuffo a cigno in una piscina.

15) Il discorso è diverso. Non poteva fare riferimento a suo figlio perché mostrarlo avrebbe mostrato il robot. Sono stato contento che in un certo senso tagliassero le scene dei bambini che guardavano il combattimento. Mi ha sempre posto delle domande serie. Se Rocky, Adriano, e Paulie erano tutti in Russia, chi stava guardando il 9 bambino di un anno? Il robot? Chi lascerà un incustodito 9 un anno guarda una rissa in cui si teme che suo padre possa essere ucciso? La parte del discorso che era comica era il discorso di Rocky sul cambiamento. Ha menzionato il suo amico (Apollo) non poteva cambiare e ora è morto. Wow. Un modo per ravvivare la folla lì, Musica rock!

Nel complesso è stato piacevole. 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, Mrs. 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”

rivincita di 2021 N.E. Lotta dell'anno Wilfredo Pagan vs. Immagine segnaposto Carlo Marrero, III titola "New England's Future VIII" dicembre. 18th in Webster, Massachusetts

Dicembre 2, 2021 FNU47 Lascia un commento

ME Poster.jpg — **Dicembre. 18^th in Webster, Massachusetts**

**WORCESTER, Massa. (Novembre 29, 2021)** – La rivincita del non ufficiale 2021 Il New England Fight of the Year sarà il protagonista di dicembre 18^th Evento “New England Future VIII”, presentato da Rivera Promozioni Spettacolo (RPE), mettendo in evidenza quelli di Webster (MA) primo evento di boxe professionistico in 27 anni, al municipio di Webster.

Wilfredo “El Sucaro” Pagan . originario di Porto Rico (6-1-1, 3 KO), combattendo da Southbridge (MA), e Bridgeport's (CT) Immagine segnaposto Carlo Marrero, III (2-6-2), ha combattuto per un divertente sorteggio diviso in 6 round lo scorso agosto 14^th a Worcester (MA).

"Sono molto entusiasta di essere riusciti a ottenere la rivincita tra Pagan e Marrero così velocemente,"Il promotore dell'RPE Jose Antonio Rivera ha commentato. "Questi due guerrieri hanno messo il cuore e l'anima nel loro ultimo combattimento e i fan non sono rimasti delusi. Come promotore, questi sono il tipo di combattimenti che amiamo mettere insieme. Noi siamo 3 settimane di distanza da un altro grande evento di boxe per vedere alcuni talentuosi futuri campioni in arrivo. Il municipio di Webster sarà elettrico!"

Pagan e Marrero combatteranno ancora una volta per il vacante New England Super Lightweight Championship nel 18 dicembre^th 6-round principale dell'evento.

L'originale Pagan-Marrero era senza sosta, lancio pieno di azione che i giudici hanno segnato 58-56 a favore o Pagan, 55-59 per Marrero, e 57-57. Il punteggio era stato originariamente annunciato come una vittoria per decisione divisa per Marrero, ma, ripensandoci, entrambi i combattenti hanno preso i cambiamenti del risultato emotivo nel passo. Un po' di carburante, anche se, è stato versato sul fuoco, principalmente attraverso i social media.

"Quando la lotta è stata fatta,” ha commentato Pagan, “come un combattente, sai se la tua battaglia è stata vinta, perso o molto vicino. Era un po' vicino, ma che ho vinto la battaglia. Quando la decisione è stata annunciata che aveva vinto, ho chiuso gli occhi, perché mi ha ricordato la mia carriera amatoriale. Ho sicuramente vinto alcuni combattimenti, ho dominato, ma non ho preso la decisione. Tutto può succedere quando finisce nelle mani dei giudici. I giudici non mi hanno visto vincere, va beh, ma poi hanno ribaltato la decisione. Pensavo che avessero capito bene e io avevo vinto, ma è stato annunciato come un pareggio. È quello che è, va beh, perché il lavoro dei giudici non è facile come la gente pensa. Hanno visto alti e bassi e hanno avuto un pareggio.

“Io stavo pensando, ci risiamo, quando è stato annunciato il sorteggio,”Ha detto Marrero. "Per qualche ragione, ogni volta che combatto in Massachusetts è sempre controverso. Ero caduto in ginocchio dalla felicità e quando è stato fatto il secondo annuncio, Pensavo gli stessero dando la vittoria. un pareggio? Non sono arrabbiato ma sono rimasto sorpreso perché sentivo di aver vinto. Sono tornato a casa pensando che fosse un pareggio, non una perdita, e speriamo di avere una rivincita. E facciamo dicembre 18^th."

Pagan vs. Marrero è un esempio di non aver bisogno di due grandi combattenti per fare un grande combattimento. Sono alla pari ed entrambi i combattenti hanno un cuore tremendo.

"La gente mi aveva chiesto se volevo una rivincita e io ho detto, di si, Ci sto pensando perché era un pareggio,"Pagano offerto. "Non avrei detto di no se fosse stato offerto, ma il no. 1 motivo per me di combattere contro di lui è per il campionato del New England. Finché ho combattuto con lui per il titolo, Lo ero perché voglio lottare per la cintura ed è questo il mio obiettivo. Questa era la mia sensazione all'inizio, ma le cose sono cambiate un po', perché è cambiato. Non so cosa gli abbiano detto le persone, Non sono un ragazzino e ho avuto molto rispetto per lui. Ma poi ha iniziato a scrivermi. Non so se fosse per ravvivare questa lotta, ma ha tagliato il traguardo. Ha detto molto che non avrebbe dovuto dire. Sono sempre umile e rispetto tutti i combattenti perché stanno rischiando la vita. Non so perché ha detto quello che ha fatto, ma mi ha dato ancora più motivazione. voglio quella cintura! Mi sto allenando doppio per batterlo e chiudere il suo mese. Ho ancora un po' di rispetto per lui, ma non è la stessa cosa.

"Ho fatto molti errori nel nostro primo incontro e ho reso il combattimento molto più difficile di quanto avrebbe dovuto essere. Ho lavorato alla regolazione e, fiduciosamente, a dicembre 18^th pagherà.”

“Ho sempre un piccolo margine di miglioramento dopo un litigio, e abbiamo visto alcune cose che dovevo migliorare per la rivincita,” Marrero ha spiegato. "Sono più preparato mentalmente a fare le cose e sarò molto più intelligente sul ring. Fisicamente, Sono molto più forte e acuto. La chiave per me è essere mentalmente preparato e più acuto. Il suo (Pagan's) l'avversario per il suo ultimo combattimento è caduto e il mio manager, Nate Torres, mi ha contattato dicendo che mi era stata offerta l'opportunità di combattere Pagan. Senza esitazione, Ho detto di sì. Sono sempre in palestra e pronto a combattere. Sono arrivato a 2 libbre sotto e sono ingrassato in questo momento per questa lotta. L'unica cosa per cui dovevo prepararmi è che è un mancino.

“Abbiamo litigato alla grande. Probabilmente pensa di aver vinto qualche round, Sentivo di aver vinto la battaglia. Gli mancava di più e mi sono collegato con i pugni più puliti che i giudici potevano vedere. Nel terzo o quarto round, L'ho ferito con un colpo al corpo. Ha passato e l'ho colpito con un altro buon tiro".

Nel caso in cui co-optional, Danbury (CT) super leggero Omar "The Beast" Bordoy (11-1, 3 KO) affronta un avversario da determinare nella partita a 6 round.

Il promettente Boca Raton (FL) prospetto super welter Josniel "TG" Castro (7-0, 5 KO) fa un passo avanti in termini di opposizione di qualità in un 6 rounder contro Lenwood "Mr. Compostezza” Dozier (10-28-3, 5 KO).

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

Dicembre 2, 2021 FNU47 Lascia un commento

Dkp — DEERFIELD BEACH, FL (Novembre 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 KO) of Dulac, Louisiana risking his perfect record against Alonzo Butler (34-3-2, 25 KO) of Chattanooga, TN.

Re, 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 con 25 KO) 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 KO), 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

Novembre 27, 2021 FNU47 Lascia un commento

**ORLANDO (Novembre 22, 2021)** – Undefeated Polish cruiserweight prospect Adrian “Pretty Boy” Pinheiro (5-0, 5 KO) has taken an unusual route to Nashville, where he will take on veteran Eric Abraham (6-10, 3 KO) 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. E sarà una bella lotta. 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. commentato. “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 8^th 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 KO) 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. Più di recente, Ortiz blasted out Alexander Flores in the first round of their November 2020 fine.

“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,” detto 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 KO) became heavyweight champion in January 2016 when he won by TKO against then unbeaten Vyacheslav Glazkov. After losing his title to Anthony Joshua, Martin has won five of his last six fights, with all of his wins coming inside the distance. Originally from St. Louis, now living in Las Vegas and currently training in Southern California with Manny Robles, Martin bounced back from a narrow decision defeat to Adam Kownacki in 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,” ha detto 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 KO) 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,” Ha detto 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.”

Il 2008 Puerto Rican Olympian Negron (25-3, 20 KO) 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 KO) 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 attraverso 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 KO) 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. "L'ultima volta, 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. A gennaio 1, there will be a fight.”

Washington (20-4-1, 13 KO) is a six-foot-six heavyweight contender who was a former college football standout at the University of Southern California and a U.S. Navy veteran. Born in 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 was unbeaten in his first 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,” ha detto che Washington. “I’m ready to go to work and get myself back in position for some big time fights. La mia esperienza sta per essere la differenza in questa lotta. It’s going to be a great night of heavyweight action!”

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

Novembre 18, 2021 FNU47 Lascia un commento

LAS VEGAS (Novembre 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 KO) has been matched against Yunieski “The Monster” Gonzalez (21-3, 17 KO) a dicembre 18 a 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 ha detto. “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.”

Buffalo (18-0, 11 KO) expressed his desire to fight Ramirez before and after the latter knocked out Sullivan Barrera (22-3, 14 KO) this past this past July. Suddenly, anche se, 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 KO), at either 168 o 175 libbre.

“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. Di nuovo, nel pugilato, 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 questa lotta (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. Purtroppo, 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 KO). Ramirez and Gonzalez, rispettivamente, are rated No. 3 e No. 4 dalla WBA, and their 12-round main event will headline a Golden Boy-promoted card to be streamed live on DAZN.
