Coyle inspired by Katie Taylor’s performance
Tampa, FL (Maio 2, 2022) – Like most who love the sweet science, middleweight invicto Connor “The Kid” Coyle was fully engaged in the Katie Taylor–Amanda Serrano luta.
Recognized as the biggest in women’s boxing history, Taylor-Serrano took place in front more than 19,000 fans at a sold out Madison Square Garden. It was the first time a female fight headlined at The Mecca of Boxing.
Following four fast-paced and competitive rounds, Serrano rocked Taylor in the fifth with a left hook followed by a left cross. Taylor was in bad shape and nearly tasted the canvas for the first time in her career but managed to finish the round on her feet.
Serrano kept the momentum over the next few rounds as she appeared to be headed towards the biggest win of her great career. Taylor impressively turned the tides in the final three rounds of the contest, finding her second wind and outfighting Serrano en route to a split decision victory.
“What an incredible fight that was – major credit to both women” said Coyle, who trained with Taylor in Dublin when both were amateurs. “Katie really had to overcome a lot of adversity against Serrano especially in the fifth round. Katie showed incredible heart and came through like a champion. She’s a true warrior and great inspiration for me heading into the most important fight of my career.”
Fernando Ezequiel, 15-0 (7 KO), meets Antonio Todd in a ten round contest for the NABA middleweight title Sábado, Maio 21 no Caribe Royale in Orlando, FL. Coyle-Todd airs live on Bally Sports Network as part of the Entrobox Championship Boxing Series em 9 pm et.

Zurdo Ramirez chasing his legacy Fighting for 44-0 vs. Dominic Boesel
May 14th streaming live on DAZN |
LAS VEGAS (Abril 28, 2022) – Rather than wait for the winner of the May 7th Las Vegas showdown between superstar Saul “Canelo” Alvarez and World Boxing Association (WBA) Super Light Heavyweight Champion Dimitry Bivol, or take a meaningless stay-busy fight, former World Super Middleweight Champion Gilberto “Zurdo” Ramirez will put his impeccable 43-0 (39 KOs) record on the line May 14th versus German Dominic Boesel (32-2, 12 KOs), the reigning International Boxing Organization (IBO) Light Heavyweight World title holder and WBA No. 1 contendor classificado. “Zurdo vs. Boesel,” presented by Golden Boy Promotions in association with Zurdo Promotions and SES Boxing, will stream live and exclusively on DAZN from Toyota Arena in Ontario, Califórnia. The winner of their 12-round main event will position himself for a shot at the Canelo vs. Bivol winner. “Boesel is the No. 1 European light heavyweight who has all the accolades to make this a challenging fight,”Ramirez disse. “Of course, Bivol (WBC & IBF champion Artur), Beterbiev and (WBO champion Joe) Smith are still at the top of my list, but they were all unavailable. Even though they are on the top of my list, I’m not waiting for them, I’ve got my own legacy to chase. I’ve said before, Beterbiev and Smith are average fighters at best, and they know not to mention my name. Bivol was close to making it (fight vs. Southpaw) happen, but he got the Canelo opportunity, so I don’t blame him.” Boesel, who has fought outside of Europe, é 2-1 in IBO world title fights, losing to Robin Krasniqi, while Zurdo is 6-0 fighting in world championships. Boesel is also a former WBA Interim, European and WBO Youth World lightweight champion. “I’m looking forward to this challenge,” Zurdo added. “He knows this fight can change his life. I’m the best light heavyweight in the world, but I still need to bring my best come fight night. I will have an advantage in experience, but I can’t take him lightly because, he’s a longtime pro who knows how to take advantage of the moment.” Because he was blocked from fighting for the WBA, WBO, WBC or IBF light heavyweight world titles right now, due to the aforementioned unavailability of Bivol, Beterbiev and Smith, Ramirez considered formally challenging WBC Cruiserweight World Champion Ilunga Junior Makabu (29-2, 25 KOs). It never came to that, contudo, Zurdo does plan to move up, but only after he takes care of business clearing out the 175-pound division. “I still plan on moving up to cruiserweight and eventually heavyweight,” Zurdo offered. “It’s always been my goal to be a 4-division world champion.” The Legend of Zurdo continues to grow!

TIM TSZYU LAS VEGAS MEDIA WORKOUT QUOTES AND PHOTOS
TERRELL Gausha: “WE’RE GOING TO GIVE TIM TSZYU A DIFFERENT LOOK THAN HE’S EVER SEEN BEFORE”
Super Welterweight Contender Gausha Faces Unbeaten Rising Star Tim Tszyu in SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING®
Evento Principal sábado, Março 26 from The Armory in Minneapolis
LOS ANGELES – March 17, 2022 - U.S. Olympian and super welterweight contenderTerrell Gaushais confident that he’ll be spoiling the stateside debut of unbeaten rising starTim Tszyuwhen they square off on Saturday, Março 26 vivo no canal Showtime® headlining a Premier Boxing Champions event from The Armory in Minneapolis.
“We’ve been working on some different things for this fight,” said Gausha. “We’re going to give Tim Tszyu a different look than he’s seen before. Compared to most of the fights that everyone has seen, they’re going to see something new from me on March 26.”
Tszyu, the son of Hall of Fame fighter Kostya Tszyu, will be making his much-anticipated debut in the U.S. against Gausha, after dominating his first 20 fights in his native Australia. For the Cleveland native Gausha, his motivation comes from within and not from the hype surrounding Tszyu entering this matchup.
“I’m just motivated period,” said Gausha. “It’s got nothing to do with any hype around Tszyu. It has everything to do with where I’m at in my life and my career. Things are happening at the right time for me. I’m in a good place. This is the perfect fight for me at this point in my career.
“I appreciate him for taking this challenge. Most other fighters would try to protect their record. This shows that he believes in himself. He wants the tough fights. Dito, I think he took the wrong fight.”
Gausha scored an impressive knockout over young contender Jamontay Clark in his last fight, stopping his opponent in round two in March 2021, and will look to build on that triumph against a bigger name in Tszyu.
“That was a good fight for me against Clark,” said Gausha. “I wanted to get right back in the ring, but sometimes it’s hard to make fights with certain guys. I have a great opportunity against Tszyu and I’m looking to capitalize and build off of my last performance. I’m going to make an even bigger splash in this fight.”
Training in Los Angeles with Manny Robles and Prenice Brewer, Gausha has received excellent sparring leading up to fight night, having shared the ring with 154-pound champion Brian Castaño, welterweight contender Vergil Ortiz and 2020 U.S. Olympian Delante Johnson. While Gausha expects Tszyu to display his typical come forward style, he plans to be ready for anything that his opponent presents.
“I expect Tim to try to bring pressure and come forward,” said Gausha. “He’s a one-trick pony. What you see is what you get. He doesn’t do too many things spectacularly, but what he does do well, he does it very well, and that’s bring the pressure. We have something ready for that and we’re going to do our thing no matter what he tries to do.”
Gausha previously challenged for the 154-pound world title in losing a 2017 decision against Erislandy Lara and also owns a decision defeat to Erickson Lubin and a draw against former champion Austin Trout. Agora, Gausha will look to catapult himself right back into the title picture with a victory on March 26.
“After everyone sees this performance on March 26, they’re going to know where I fit into this division,” said Gausha. “I’ve got a job to do. Agora, I’m really just starting to show people my skills and what I can do. This is going to solidify that. I’m knocking on the door of a title fight right now. A win over Tszyu would be great for my career and get me to the world titles.”
Os ingressos para o evento, que é promovido pela TGB Promoções, No Limit Boxing and Warriors Boxing, are on sale now and can be purchased at the Armory athttp://ArmoryMN.com/ and through Ticketmaster.

THREE SENSATIONAL UNDERCARD MATCHUPS HIGHLIGHT ERROL SPENCE JR. VS. YORDENIS UGAS SHOWTIME PPV® ON SATURDAY, Abril 16
Lenda de Los Angeles Inner-City Prospect invicto do peso galo John “Scrappy” Ramirez Lutando em casa pela primeira vez neste sábado
LOS ANGELES (Março 17, 2022) – Prospecto invicto do peso-galo de Los Angeles John “Scrappy” Ramirez (8-0, 7 KOs) volta aos ringues neste sábado (Mar. 19) para enfrentar Roberto “Escorpion” Pucheta (10-20-3, 10 KOs), de México, em uma luta de 6 rounds no card Blair Cobbs-Alexis Rocha (substituindo Vergil Ortiz, Jr.-Michael McKinson), apresentado por Golden Boy Promotions.
O card principal será transmitido ao vivo no DAZN do USC Galen Center em Los Angeles; vá para a página do YouTube do Golden Boy para assistir o Ramirez vs. Transmissão ao vivo de Pucheta.
Ramirez é uma lenda do esporte no centro da cidade de LA. Sua jornada começou no gridiron, não em um anel, quando ele era um membro-chave do time de futebol Lincoln High, perfilado em um 2015 documentário, “ESPN 60: Letreiro.” Os jogadores eram de uma seção cheia de crimes de Hollywood, repleta de drogas e armas. Ramirez era um 5’ 4”, 160-libra correndo de volta em uma equipe que, começando na competição Pop Warner, e avançou para Lincoln High, que não teve sucesso no futebol. Lincoln High tornou-se tricampeão da liga, destacado por sua aparição nas semifinais em seu último ano, que acabou levando "Scrappy" a um lugar no elenco do time de futebol do Los Angeles Valley College.
“O local fica a apenas cinco minutos de carro da minha casa,” um Ramirez animado disse. “Eu literalmente passo por ele todos os dias. Eu cresci perto da USC e joguei futebol lá. Agora, Estou lutando no centro da cidade onde cresci. Isso é muito droga! Meu sonho é lutar no Staples Center, que é apenas uma viagem de três minutos para mim. estou me aproximando.
“Coisas assim não acontecem por acaso. Em março 18th, Vou mostrar minhas habilidades na frente do meu povo. LA é a Cidade dos Campeões, mas não temos um campeão mundial de boxe desde Oscar de la Hoya, que cresceu no leste de LA. Meu objetivo é ser o próximo campeão de LA.”
“Descascado,” que foi um dos lutadores mais ativos do 2021 com sete lutas, fez a transição com sucesso do futebol para o boxe, embora uma carreira de boxe amador relativamente curta com apenas 25 partidas amadoras. Ele ganhou as principais honras no Campeonato Nacional Sugar Bert, bem como nos torneios regionais Golden Gloves e SoCal.
“Eu lutei pela última vez em dezembro 18th, tirou uma semana de folga, e voltou direto para o campo de treinamento no Brickhouse Boxing Club (N. Hollywood),”, acrescentou Ramirez, de 26 anos.. “Estou melhorando e isso é super empolgante para mim. Eu estive com meu treinador de força e condicionamento, encontro, e trabalhando em minhas habilidades de boxe. Meu treino não parou, vai com força total”.
Pucheta foi parado apenas uma vez em 33 lutas profissionais, de volta 2016 por Emanuel Navarrete, a atual Organização Mundial de Boxe (WBO) Super Campeão Peso Galo, quem pratica um 35-1 (29 KOs) registro profissional.
“Ele é duro, oponente durável,” Ramírez observou, “que esteve no ringue com muitas boas perspectivas. Esta é uma grande oportunidade para eu fazer uma declaração, tornando-me apenas o segundo a nocauteá-lo.”
Ritmo acelerado e desenvolvimento de Ramirez continua neste sábado, quando será "Scrappy Time" mais uma vez, só que desta vez em casa.
“Quero estar no topo e vou,", concluiu. “Toda luta me eleva. Meu objetivo é ser Não. 1 na minha categoria de peso, e eu vou chegar lá por causa do meu trabalho duro e dedicação.”
