16-YEAR-OLD JOHNNY “NICCO” TAPIA STRIVES TO FOLLOW IN HIS LEGENDARY DAD’S FOOTSTEPS AS HE MAKES HIS AMATEUR BOXING DEBUT ON HIS MOM TERESA’S FIGHT CARD
Sâmbătă, Noiembrie. 20, 2021, IN MESCALERO, NEW MEXICO
Youngest son of late Hall of Famer Johnny Tapia to fight on the preliminary portion of Tapia Promotions’ Barrera vs. De Leon: “La Ultima Batalla” (The Last Stand) trăi from the Inn of the Mountain Gods Resort & Cazinou
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (Noiembrie. 13, 2021) – While countless high school juniors concern themselves with standardized test scores and submitting college applications, Johnny “Nicco” Tapia, the youngest son and namesake of the late five-time world champion, will commence his pursuit of a pro boxing career when he makes his amateur debut on the preliminary portion of his Mom Teresa’sMarco Antonio Barrera vs. Daniel Ponce de Leonpay-per-view fight card Saturday, Noiembrie. 20, 2021.
“Boxing is a passion,” said the 16-year-old currently working toward earning his diploma online. “I love stepping into the ring, getting hit, and feeling the crowd’s energy.”
In the Nov. 20 main event, two Mexican boxing legends will lace up the gloves for one final night when Hall of FamerMarco Antonio Barrera(67-7, 44 KO) returns to the ring for only the second time in more than a decade to square off against former two-time world championDaniel Ponce de Leon (45-7, 35 KO). The six-round super welterweight exhibition and four additional bouts will air live on pay per view from Inn of the Mountain Gods Resort & Casino in Mescalero, New Mexico.
FITE PPV and Golden Boy Fight Night on Facebook Watch Paid Online will televise the five-bout main card live on pay per view for$9.99 la4:30 p.m. PT /5:30 p.m. MT/7:30 p.m. ȘI
A native of Las Cruces, N.M., Nicco trains in the Tapia home garage, enjoys studying sociology to “look at people from a different perspective,” dislikes mathematics, and currently has no plans to further an academic career following his 2023 graduation.
“I don’t really plan to go to college,” said the music fan who freestyle raps in his downtime. “I want to keep pushing myself in the ring and turn pro as soon as I get enough experience.”
Surrounded by the sweet science from an early age, Nicco fondly looks back on innumerable heartwarming memories of watching his father train for upcoming fights.
“I used to go to the gym and run around with my Dad every day. When the bell rang, I held up the gloves with him.”
Outside of boxing, the father-son pairing spent quality time playing other sports, enjoying delicious desserts, and tuning into their favorite television programs.
“We used to go to the park, play basketball, and jump on the trampoline,” Nicco recalled. “Dad used to give me ice cream sandwiches. I remember going into his room and watching the show ‘Cops’ together.”
Aiming to find inspiration and discover boxing tips from one of boxing’s all-time greatest fighters, young Nicco frequently rewatches Johnny’s classic bouts.
“I study his speed, mișcarea capului, and angles,” said the teenager who models much of his fighting style after his Dad and Marvelous Marvin Hagler.
When asked to name his favorite “Mi Vida Loca” fight, Nicco did not hesitate in listing Johnny Tapia’s hard-fought victory over fellow Albuquerquean and former world champion Danny Romero for the IBF/WBO junior bantamweight titles on July 18, 1997, în Las Vegas, Nev.
“The crowd was wild and crazy,” Nicco recollected. “I love studying my Dad’s boxing technique.”
Originally scheduled to fight at Inn of the Mountain Gods on July 31, 2021, the aspiring actor and former viola player pulled out of his amateur debut when he sustained a hand fracture.
“I was playing football with friends and landed on my hand wrong,” lamented the proud holder of a driver’s license. “It was the first time I injured myself.”
Less than four months later, Nicco is eager to thrill the Mescalero crowd on Nov. 20 before Barrera and De Leon take center stage.
“I am ticking off the days and can’t wait for this night to come.”
Kicking off the festivities, Golden Boy Fight Night on Facebook WatchFacebook.com/GoldenBoyFN and FITE will stream Nicco Tapia’s debut and four additional outstanding preliminary bouts forfree at 2 p.m. PT/3 p.m. MT/5 p.m. ȘI.

Totuși, numerous obstacles have beset Abel on his road toward achieving he and his father’s goal of the young fighter becoming a world champion.
“My Dad got into some trouble at the beginning of my boxing career,” Abel said. “He was on house arrest and then went to jail for a while. It was an extremely difficult time for my family.”
While still in high school, the 17-year-old Mendoza often slept in his vehicle after moving from Odessa to El Paso to become a professional boxer.
“That was a point in my career when I was homeless,” the aspiring titleholder recalled. “I was surrounded by a lot of violence and crime in Odessa and left because I wanted a fresh start. Sometimes I had to stay in my car.”
Never one to shy away from strenuous manual labor, Mendoza’s first job consisted of unearthing fruit in a Pecos, Texas, field with his grandfather at age 13.
“It was summer, and we picked cantaloupes in the hot sun all day,” said the multi-faceted student who is currently taking psychology classes at Odessa College. “That was the year I first won Nationals. I still trained while working in the fields. It was the best and the worst.”
Recalling the arduous memories when he did not know where he would sleep or locate his next meal, the Native American history fan finds solace in giving back to the El Paso community during the holiday season.
“I love to help out at shelters because I have been in that situation where I needed food and a place to stay,” said Santa’s helper who also hands out gifts at west Texas hospitals each December. “It makes me feel good to see the children smile.”
Hoping to battle for a world crown within the next year, the never-married Mendoza counsels the wedded on social media when not honing his skills in the squared circle.

Los Angeles, CA. (Noiembrie 8, 2018) – Într-o epocă în care boxul greoi este din nou o diviziune fierbinte. Întrebarea este încă pusă, cine va fi următorul Mike Tyson ca artist knockout? Sau sporturile precum fotbalul și baschetul i-au luat pe cei mai buni bărbați mari departe de box?
Intră pe James “Bestia” Wilson.
Wilson are toate atributele calităților menționate mai sus. Un sport extraordinar, care se afla într-un lagăr de antrenament NFL cu un fundal în lupte care afișează o putere feroce.
Wilson, care tocmai a semnat cu Golden Boy Promotions, are un record de 8-0 cu șapte lovituri, dar povestea lui începe 20 cu ani în urmă pe străzile din Los Angeles.
Wilson trecea prin momente grele și era fără adăpost între vârstele 13 și 15, unde dormea în moteluri, bancuri de parc, și duș în acele parcuri. Wilson avea o legătură cu legea, iar asta i-a schimbat viața….pentru mai bine.
“Am fost închis și apoi plasat într-un grup. Asta m-a determinat să am structură și m-a plasat pe drumul cel bun. M-am descurcat bine în școală și am început să joc sport și acum am avut opțiuni pozitive în viața mea,” spuse Wilson.
Wilson a devenit jucătorul de fotbal din Los Angeles Times High School, precum și un traseu în trei orașe & Atlet de teren, care i-a câștigat o bursă la Universitatea Concord din Virginia de Vest.
Wilson, care a absolvit o diplomă în sociologie, apoi a continuat să joace fotbal profesionist în toate locurile, Polonia.
După aceea, a câștigat o invitație în tabără de antrenament cu Chicago Bears. Cu toate acestea, a ales să urmeze o altă pasiune atletică.
“Am început să fac Kenpo-Karate, Muay-Thai și Kickboxing.” Wilson a avut un record profesionist de Kickboxing 16-2-1 unde a concurat în organizații de top precum K-1 și Glory.

Dupa aceea, Wilson și-a încercat mâna la MMA și a ridicat un impresionant 5-2 înregistrează și luptă pentru apreciatele Campionate de luptă Bellator.
Încă nu sunt mulțumit, Wilson a început să facă box.
Wilson a călătorit din nou pe glob și și-a început perforarea pentru cariera salarială în Noua Zeelandă.
“Am cunoscut un promotor în Noua Zeelandă, și am putut să lupt în fiecare săptămână acolo. Asta mi-a accelerat procesul și dezvoltarea. Am revenit la Los Angeles, și a reușit să obțină încă patru victorii.”
La 7-0, Wilson a cunoscut apoi un jucător de lungă durată din industria boxului, Jared Shaw.
Shaw a văzut videoclipuri cu Wilson pe contul său de Instagram, și a întins mâna grea neînvinsă.
“Jared m-a contactat, și m-am întâlnit la sală, și el a avut aceeași viziune pentru mine pe care am avut-o, iar restul este istorie.”
“L-am văzut pe James ca pe un romb grosier,” spuse Shaw. “El are combinația și viteza și puterea pe care nu le vedeți în diviziunea grea. El are asta “aceasta” factor pe care l-am văzut cu Kimbo Slice. Am avut norocul să-l fi semnat pe Kimbo din luptele care au fost văzute pe Youtube. Când Kimbo a intrat într-o cameră, ai simțit prezență și energie. Văd o mulțime de aceleași calități în ceea ce privește James fiind acel tip de atracție. Oricine a greșit pe James cu un jucător de fotbal sau un artist marțial mixt, cu siguranță va avea mâinile pline în ringul de box. Acesta este un atlet albastru, ” spuse Shaw, care a crescut în sport, deoarece tatăl său Gary Shaw a fost unul dintre cei mai buni promotori din lume în ultimele trei decenii.
Prima treabă a lui Shaw a fost să-l aducă pe James cu formatorul potrivit. Intră pe Justin Fortune.
“Îl cunosc pe Justin de mult. Atât ca antrenor de forță și condiționare, cât și ca antrenor. Cei mai mulți l-ar cunoaște de partea lui Manny Pacquiao, dar poate că majoritatea oamenilor nu știu că Justin era un potențial greu care s-a luptat cu Lennox Lewis. Ceea ce îmi place cel mai mult la această împerechere este Justin, de asemenea, un greutate mai scurtă, ci un perforator puternic. Anii săi de experiență sunt ceea ce îl va ajuta pe James să își accelereze creșterea în sport. Ca o echipa, avem un obiectiv de a readuce un campionat mondial în Los Angeles și în timp util,” continuă Shaw.
Următoarea mișcare a lui Shaw a fost să găsească promotorul potrivit pentru care va semna Wilson, iar duo-ul a găsit una dintre cele mai mari companii din lume care era interesată.
“O mulțime de promotori se uitau la mine. M-am întâlnit cu Golden Boy, și mi-au văzut talentul și viziunea și simt că vor face asta pentru mine, și du-mă la Campionatul Mondial de Greutate,” spuse Wilson.
Shaw a vorbit puternic despre căsătoria dintre luptător și promotor.

“Este situația perfectă. Golden Boy Promotions este unul dintre liderii sportului nostru atunci când vine vorba de companii de promovare. In aceasta situatie, s-a gândit că aveți o perspectivă grozavă de la lupta din Los Angeles de la o companie de renume mondial cu sediul în Los Angeles. În prezent, Golden Boy se află în vârful sportului. Ei promovează, probabil, cel mai înalt luptător din lume în Canelo Alvarez, și au putut să-i asigure o înțelegere fără precedent cu DAZN. Așteptăm cu nerăbdare oportunitățile care vor veni pentru James, și să-l arătăm pe James’ set extraordinar de abilități. eu am 100% încredere în Oscar (De La Hoya), Eric (Gomez) și Robert (Diaz) să-l conducă pe James la campionatul mondial Heavyweight, și contribuie la maximizarea potențialului său de câștig. Los Angeles nu a avut niciodată un campion la Greutate, deci are sens perfect că primul va fi cu o echipă completă din Los Angeles cu James, Justin, Băiatul de Aur și cu mine. ”
“Ce mi-aș dori ca oamenii să știe despre James este că în interiorul corzilor, el este un film al bestiei și al luminilor umane, deci nu clipi. Dar în afara ringului, el este un tată incredibil pentru cei trei băieți ai săi. Un vorbitor motivațional extraordinar, și un model pozitiv pentru orașele interioare și restul lumii. El este mare pe comunitate și ajută tinerii. Mai ales a celor bulversați.”
Wilson vorbește cu mulți tineri despre Anti-Bullying. “Spun multe seminarii și seminarii pentru anti-intimidare. Mă duc la o mulțime de școli și locuințe adoptive și le spun povestea mea. Cred că pot fi cineva pentru care copiii să privească și să-i anunțe că au un viitor, în ciuda circumstanțelor în care se află. Le spun copiilor că mâinile tale sunt arme, gura ta este o armă, iar singurul loc de luptă este în interiorul unui inel.”
Când a fost întrebat cu cine vrea să lupte și care sunt obiectivele sale în sport, Spuse Wilson, “Nu caut să lupt cu nimeni în mod special, Caut să-i lupt pe toți. Cel mai important, Sunt aici pentru a le oferi fanilor ceva de urmărit. Este 365 zile de “Fiară” sezon. Este modul Beast sau modul fără.”

The resumes of Liddell and Ortiz speak for themselves as both fought the most important fighters of their era. The two first fought in the UFC cage in 2004 after months of trash talk in which Liddell said he always dominated Ortiz in sparring during their past training sessions together. Liddell won the fight in spectacular fashion via KO, but the grudge was far from over. În 2006 the two faced off again with Ortiz vowing he would even the score. Ortiz fared much better in the second encounter but again succumbed to Liddell via referee stoppage TKO.
Tito Ortiz returns to the cage after a submission win over Chael Sonnen back in January 2017 to fight for redemption against his longtime rival Chuck Liddell. Liddell, coming out of retirement, is fighting to make it a perfect 3-0 over the “The Huntington Beach Bad Boy” and to close the door on a feud that has spanned more than a decade. With a rivalry this intense and emotions still running high, this trilogy fight has fighters and fans from multiple generations excited to see the final chapter of one of the biggest rivalries of all time!
