Ubesejrede junior mellemvægtprospekt Anthony Velazquez bliver ikke bokses bedst bevarede hemmelighed i 2026

Springfield, Masse. (Juli 10, 2025) - Lige nu, Ubeæret junior mellemvægt Anthony “ATV” Velazquez (19-0-1, 14 KOS) kan være bokses bedst bevarede hemmelighed, Men planen er for ham at gøre et stort spring fra udsigten til titeludfordrer i 2026.

Kæmper ud af Springfield, Massachusetts, Den 29-årige Valezquez er fløjet under radaren, Kæmper aldrig med en verdensklassificeret modstander eller fremvist på en marquee -begivenhed. Hans manager, Gunther Fishgold, har sat scenen for et breakout 2026 For hans talentfulde Puerto Rican-American Fighter.

Planen kræver Velazquez, Hvem er en salgsfremmende gratis agent, At kæmpe tre gange, Fra juli 19th på Mohegan Sun, Plus to gange mere i 2025 eller næste januar, at placere ham til at være verdensklassificering og kæmpe på større faser i første kvartal af 2026.


”Jeg vil være den bedste, og jeg vil bevise mig selv,”Valezquez bemærkede. ”Jeg er bokses bedst bevarede hemmelighed, Men alle vil vide, hvem jeg er meget snart. Jeg kan godt lide dette tempo (kæmper hver 2-3 måneder) Fordi jeg altid er i gymnastiksalen. Ingen ferier; Bare gymnastiksalen og hjemmet. Dette er mit job, og jeg arbejder hårdt for at holde mine færdigheder skarpe. Jeg får godt arbejde på vores fitnesscenter, fordi min træner, Hector Bermudez, har altid krigere ind fra hele verden. Jeg har sparret meget med (Verdenskarpet weltervægt) Rohan Polanco (16-0, 10 KOS), Den Dominikanske Olympian, Og jeg sparer større fyre, for, Som super mellemvægt Steven Butler (36-5-1, 30 KOS) - 'Bang Bang' – Hvem var der klar til sin kamp (Juni 27, WKO4 vs.. Jose de Jesus Macias). Det arbejde, jeg får i gymnastiksalen, hjælper mig bestemt. Det føles godt at kæmpe for forskellige mennesker, fordi de alle har forskellige stilarter. ”
Team Velazquez har ikke målrettet nogen fighter især, Men en naturlig fjende er kollega New Englander, Chordale “The Gift” Booker (23-2, 11 KOS), af Stamford, Connecticut. Booker havde for nylig sit første verdens titelbillede, At miste sin udfordring til forenet (WBC & WBO) Super weltervægt verdensmesterSebastian Fundora (21-1-1, 14 KOS) ved hjælp af en stop i runde 4. 2026, måske, er weltervægtAlexis "Lex" Rocha (25-2-1, 16 KOS), Hvem er i øjeblikket verdenskarakterer på ingen. 1 (WBO), Do Not. 5 (IBF) og nr. 9 (WBC), men kun hvis han beslutter at flytte op til junior mellemvægtdivision. Velazquez er på træningslejr og forbereder sig til sin juli 19th Vend tilbage i en 8-runde bout Vs.Terry Chatwood(12-3-1) på Mohegan Sun i Uncasville, Connecticut, som kun er en 1 ½ times kørsel fra Velazquez 'hjem i Springfield.
”Jeg ved, at Chatwood kan lide at bokse sin bagfod, og han er hård,”Sagde Velazquez, ”Men han har intet, jeg er bekymret for. Jeg vil nedbryde ham og få ham ud derfra. Jeg har det godt i ringen. Mit forsvar og selvtillid er forbedret. Og jeg nyder at kæmpe på Mohegan Sun på grund af dens historie inden for boksning, og hvor tæt det er på Springfield. Det er som mit andet hjem (Dette vil være hans tredje kamp der)."


Anthony Velazquez er klar til at foretage bevægelser i 2026.

I have a short window left, so we are going to be active, keep winning, and eventually get back to the mountain top. Regaining a world title is my No. 1 goal, and I am feeling very strong at 160. It all starts once again on July 26 in my hometown. Let’s eat.”

On the heels of two dominant unanimous decision victories in back-to-back fights, Veyre prepares to take the next step towards WBC gold against the battle-tested Boudersa. Boudersa, 32, makes her promotional debut following a closely contested loss to Beatriz Ferreira for the IBF Lightweight World Title last year.

Al handlingen vil blive streamet viderewww.bxngtv.com live from the Oceanside Events Center (Tidligere Wonderland Ballroom) I Revere, Massachusetts.

En del af indtægterne vil blive doneret til Quincy brandmænd Cancer Foundation, En non-profit organisation, hvis mission er at yde urokkelig støtte til brandmænd og deres familier, når de står over for udfordringerne ved erhvervskræft, sikrer, at de får pleje, Ressourcer, og hjælp, de har brug for. Gå tilwww.quincyfirecancerfoundation.com For information.

“It’s been long overdue that Granite Chin did an event on the North Shore,” promoterChris -træksagde. “Oceanside Events Center is a beautiful venue, and they have been a pleasure to work with. This event will be an incredible night of fights with a new WBC Silver U.S. Champion crowned. Oven i købet, we will be raising money for the Quincy Firefighters Cancer Foundation, which as a member of the Quincy Fire Department, hits home for me. The foundation does amazing work and provides critical support for our fellow firefighters at a time of need.”

Perkins and Andreozzi are throwback fighters who could fight in a proverbial phone boothproviding non-stop action in an entertaining, competitive encounter for a regional title.

En gravedigger fra det nærliggende Lynn (MA), the 32-year-old Perkins was a solid hockey player at St. Mary’s High School in Lynn, who also had another intensive labor job working on a lobster boat.

James and Tony are two guys who refuse to take a step backwards, for better or worse, coming forward and bringing non-stop pressure. Getting both guys to agree to fight was one of the easiest things I have done all year. They were chomping at the bit. This fight is a can’t miss regional main event.”

Traietti concluded, “On top of a great main event, SHEA WILLCOX IS COMING HOME! Getting Shea a fight in his home area was paramount this year. We plan to make it a recurring theme. He is a terrific talent with a loyal fan base that traveled twice to Bridgewater to support him. Now he is coming to the North Shore where he belongs, and the sky’s the limit.”

Do Not. 1 rated WBA Super Flyweight John “Scrappy” Ramirez believes in the process

LOS ANGELES (Juli 2, 2025) -- It’s “Scrappy Time” again!

For the first time in 2025, charismatic super flyweight contenderJohn “Scrappy” Ramirez (15-1, 9 KOS) returned to the ring on last Saturday’s DAZN Pay-Per-View event, presented by MVP Promotions and Golden Boy Promotions, and headlined by YouTuber turned boxerJake "The Problem Child" Paul(12-1, 7 KOS) modJulio Cesar Chavez, Jr. (54-7-1, 34 KOS) at Honda Center in Anaheim, California.

I en 8-round Bout, “Scrappy” dominated Houston’sJosue Jesus Morales (33-19-5, 14 KOS), who was a very late replacement forSaleto Henderson (10-2, 7 KOS), enroute to an 8-round unanimous decision (80-72, 80-72, 89-73).

Henderson pulled out of the fight last Wednesday night, Morales accepted the fight Thursday evening after the event’s final press conference.

“I trusted the process,” Ramirez explained. “It was emotional when my original opponent pulled out of the fight so late and I didn’t know if I’d be fighting. I’m happy I got the fight, even if I had to open the show, because I’ve learned to embrace the opportunity. I trained to fight a 5’ 2”, righty and fought a southpaw. I was comfortable, regardless, because I prepare at camp for anything that may happen. I wanted the fight and gave him (Morales) two passes on weight. He was coming in heavy; så, we agreed to fight at a 120-pound catchweight. Before he stepped on the scale, he said he weighed 121.6. I didn’t want him to be fined for coming in overweight because he was doing me a favor by taking the fight. I respect him for taking the fight on late notice and we changed the contract to 121.6. Nothing changed for me other than the opponent and opening the preliminaries. Time is money, and I wanted everything I had done to count like camp (expenses), resources I used, mileage on my body. Alt sker for en grund. There are six months left in 2025, and my goal is to have two more fights.”

The 29-year-old Ramirez is world rated at No. 1 i WBA, samt nr. 12 og nr. 15, henholdsvis, af World Boxing Council (WBC) and WBO.Fernando Daniel Martinez (16-0, 9 KOS), of Argentina, is the reigning WBA Super Flyweight World ChampionDavid Jimenez (17-1, 11 KOS) remains the WBA Interim Champion.

“I’m back where I left off (Do Not. 1 ranking)," sagde Ramirez. “After my last fight I was No. 2, ‘Chocolatito’ (Roman Gonzalez) was on top. And before this coming fight, I wanted to go up to No. 1 og derefter, a little while ago, I saw that I was back at No. 1. It’s a good feeling to have put myself back where I was. At this point, I have power and leverage. They may want me to fight a rematch with Jimenez, who is still the (WBA) Interim champion but we’ll see how everything plays out. If I get the opportunity to fight ‘Chocolatito’ or ‘Bam’ (WBC world championJessie Rodriguez), I’d do that if it makes sense.”

Fighting out of South Central Los Angeles, “Scrappy” hasn’t fought since last December 14th when he decisioned previously undefeatedEphraim Bui (10-0) af snesevis af 97-93 tre gange. In Ramirez’ previous fight in April of 2024, “Scrappy” had suffered the lone loss of his pro career to Jimenez for the WBA Interim Super Flyweight crown.

“I’m hungry! I feel like I’ve been locked up in a cage. I’m happy to be back to the spot I had before.,” Ramirez continued. ”I’m ignoring distractions and continue to work on my craft and self-discipline. I know my opportunity (world title shot) will come. Even when I didn’t know who my opponent would be or even if I’d fight (denne lørdag), I just let that go and kept training hard to keep improving.

“Everything is based on my confidence. Jeg er stadig læring på jobbet. I like to compare it to when I played football, my level of confidence, because I knew what that was all about for me. I’ve gained that same level of experience in the ring, when to or when not to do something that I’ve learned through my experiences. Going back to December 14th, I was coming off my only loss eight months earlier, and it’s been six months since my last fight. I kept on the right path, and now I have my old football comfort and understanding. People compared me with fighters who’ve fought their whole lives, but I didn’t make my pro debut until December of 2020. I started late (i boksning) and I’m still learning and figuring things out.”

Faktisk, ‘Scrappy’ has been an adaptive learner who resents being called by some as ahyped-up fighter, primarily because of his commitment and sacrifices he’s made to be the all-around fighter he has become.

“I know I have the skills to be world champion,” Ramirez concluded. “I like to fight and prove people wrong. I train to learn how to perform better. I’m in a great spot. I know I need to keep winning and that my opportunity will come. I’m only really thinking about this fight as I glimpse a little into my future.”

It’s “Scrappy Time” again and the dynamic super flyweight is closing in on his world title.

Angel Fierro: “I HAVE NO RESPECT FOR PITBULL CRUZ. HE DOESN’T INTIMIDATE ME & HE’S AN ORDINARY FIGHTER!" – Fierro Talks Training With Robert Garcia & More Ahead of Cruz Rematch on Saturday, Juli 19

Hard-Hitting Fierro Talks Training with Robert Garcia & Previews Mexico vs. Mexico Rematch Against Former World Champion Isaac “Pitbull” Cruz onLørdag, Juli 19 on PBC Pay-Per-View Event on Prime Video from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas

RIVERSIDE, F.EKS. – July 1, 2025 -Hard-hitting Mexican contenderAngel “Tashiro” Fierrosent a direct message to his compatriot and rivalIsaac "Pitbull" Cruzduring a tense face-to-face at the Los Angeles press conference in June to announce their rematch, and has continued to express his ire toward Cruz as we near their showdown on Saturday, Juli 19 as part of a PBC Pay-Per-View event on Prime Video from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.

“When I say something to him, like I did at that press conference, I follow through,” said Fierro. “I promised I would show him that I’m elite and this fight will be more of the same. I have no respect for ‘Pitbull’ Cruz. He doesn’t intimidate me and he’s an ordinary fighter. He’s a human and he gets tired too. I stayed true to myself when I told him I’m coming for war.”

The biggest change for Fierro since the first showdown is the addition of famed trainer Robert Garcia, who has led his training camp and will do the same for his corner on July 19. By joining forces with Garcia, Fierro believes he’s unlocked a better version of himself that he’ll display in the rematch.

“It’s been a tough camp,” said Fierro. “I’ve never trained with this much intensity before. Robert Garcia and the whole team has been excellent. We’ve made changes to my sparring sessions and I believe we’re going to deliver a great result.

“I’ve gone through changes physically, mentally and nutritionally. It’s going to make me formidable. I’m in the best shape of my life and my diet is on point. I’m not worried about making weight and that’s how an elite fighter should come into a fight.”

The Tijuana-native’s first fight against Cruz was a tale of two halves, as Cruz controlled the early rounds before Fierro appeared to turn the tide, out landing his opponent 132 til 106 across the final five frames. While he believes he’ll be even better on July 19, Fierro is confident that he proved his elite status in the first fight, even if Cruz doesn’t.

“I’ve worked on myself and correcting the mistakes I made in the first fight that would have changed the outcome,” said Fierro. “Robert Garcia is very experienced and I watched the fight with him to work on what I need to do to win this time.

“I didn’t keep my hands up 100% of the time like I needed to. That was the main mistake at the time. ‘Pitbull’ underestimated me – and still does- but I already showed him that I’m not middling fighter. I proved I’m elite and now I’m working twice as hard.”

In addition to showing Cruz his level, Fierro believes that he took advantage of the big stage in February on the undercard of David Benavidez vs. David Morrell Jr. to show the Mexican people that he was a true contender. With that extra motivation, he’s promised to show that he will be the next big star to take off from the boxing-rich country.

“At the beginning of the fight, people looked at me like I was a nobody,” said Fierro. “But by the halfway point, I felt a shift, and people were already seeing me as a big-time fighter. I felt like Rocky in Russia! I proved that I’m not just a talker. I’m a true Mexican…We’re two Mexicans with pride on the line and looking to show who the next great Mexican boxing star will be. I’m fighting to bring honor to my country.”

Having already delivered a fight that’s garnering early Fight of the Year consideration, Fierro has promised to deliver even more action the second time around, and perhaps bring back memories of Fierro’s personal favorite all-Mexican rematch Marco Antonio Barrera vs. Erik Morales II.

“You’re going to see a different ‘Tashiro’ and it’s going to be an even better war than the first one,” said Fierro. “The fans will be on their feet from the very first round. I will beat ‘Pitbull’ – no matter what. He better prepare well and I think he will, because deep down he knows what he’s up against.”

Reminder: Undefeated Russian super middleweight Petr “The Surgeon” Khamukov to headline This Friday in Long Beach on DAZN



LOS ANGELES (Juni 16, 2025) - Often avoided Russian super middleweight Petr “The Surgeon” Khamukov (13-0, 6 KOS) will headline “LA Friday Night Fights”, presented by Paco Presents and Golden Boy Promotions, against David “Dynamite” Stevens (14-2, 10 KOS) this week in Long Beach, California.


Khamukov faces Stevens, who was a standout amateur boxer out of Pennsylvania, i den 10-round main event. “LA Friday Night Fights” will be streamed live this Friday on DAZN from Thunder Studios.


A promotional free agent who now resides in Woodland Hills (F.EKS), Khamukov had 350 amateur matches, represented Russia in the 2016 OL, and he was the only Russian to qualify for the same Olympics in two weights classes (middleweight and light heavyweight). He captured gold medals at the 2015 European Championships and 2016 Russian National Championships.


Khamukov, 33, is excited to be fighting again, never mind headlining, because he has had a difficult time securing fights prior to recently signing a managerial contract with 3 Point Management (3 PM). Khamukov’s last fight was 13 måneder siden, when he knocked out Esau Herrera de la Cruz (21-16-1) i tredje runde.


“It was a real challenge, both physically and mentally,” Khamukov spoke about his absence from the ring. “As they say, the darkest night is followed by the brightest dawn. That time away helped me reset, reflect, and come back even stronger. Sometimes those moments are necessary to build true resilience. You have to ask fighters why they have avoided me. I’ve always been ready to fight but they weren’t. Maybe the risk just didn’t justify the reward? Fear of losing can be a powerful force. Let them run, I’m not chasing anyone. I’m focused on my own path.


“It’s a huge honor and a big responsibility to be headlining this Friday night in Long Beach. A main event, worthy opponent, and a team that’s worked incredibly hard to get us here. Now it’s time to do what I do best: step into the ring and prove myself. Fighting on DAZN is a launchpad to a whole new level. Millions of eyes, a bigger stage and new doors that could open for me after a strong performance. One thing will stay the same: moving forward with dignity and respect for the sport, my opponent and myself.”


In his most recent fight last November in Las Vegas, the 24-year-old Stevens lost a 12-round split decision to Bektemir Melikuziev (14-1, 10 KOS). Stevens’ most impressive performance to date was an 8-round stoppage of then 14-0 Sean Hemphill in 2023.


“My opponent is a strong, erfaren fighter, ingen tvivl om det,” Khamukov said. “I respect that, but I didn’t just start boxing yesterday, enten. I’ve prepared thoroughly – physically, mentalt, tactically. The rest will be shown in the ring. Jeg taler ikke meget, Jeg gør, and that’s what professionalism is about.


“The biggest change in training camp has been volume. We’ve increased endurance work and focused on managing pace and energy. At my core, I’m still the same…. aggressiv, technical, and hungry for victory.


Khamukov is the latest member of 3 Point Management’ (3 PM) stable of gifted boxers including WBA & WBO Cruiserweight World Champion/Ring Magazine No. 1 rated Gilberto “Zurdo” Ramirez (47-1, 30 KOS), former WBC World Light Heavyweight Champion/WBC No. 3 rated Oleksandr “Nails” Gvozdyk (20-2, 16 KOS), world super flyweight title challenger/WBO No. 1 rated John “Scrappy” Ramirez (14-1, 9 KOS), WBA #6 rated super middleweight Darius “DFG” Fulgham (14-1, 12 KOS), former WBA Inter-Continental Light Heavyweight Champion Kareem “Supreme” Hackett (12-1, 6 KOS) and German junior welterweight Simon “Saucy” Vollmer (7-0, 3 KOS).
