“Crossroads: doubleheader results from N.H.: Кендрыка Болль, Малодшы. hits home run vs. Браян Вера
“Crossroads” results from New Hampshire
DERRY, N гадзіну. (Красавіка 18, 2021) -Former New England middleweight championKendrick “Peppa” Ball, Малодшы. turned in a career-best performance in last night’s main event against dangerousBryan “The Warrior” Vera on the evening portion of the “Crossroads” day-night doubleheader, прадстаўлена Granite Chin Promotions, at New England Sports Center in Derry, New Hampshire.
The pre-fight plan was followed as Ball (16-1-2, 11 КО) boxed and moved, while Vera (28-17, 18 КО) applied pressure, right from the opening bell. Ball took control in the second round, when he stayed in the pocket, snapping off crisp combinations. Ball fired more effective combinations in the third round as Vera started chasing his opponent. Ball started moving around the ring and fighting from the outside in the fourth and stayed on his toes the remainder of the fight.
Ball won an 8-round unanimous decision (79-73, 79-73, 78-74) to become the World Boxing Council (WBC) USNBC (ЗША) Silver Super Middleweight Champion.
“This was my best fight, because of who I fought, and the magnitude of the fight,” Ball commented. “The plan was to box and move because he was much smaller and slower. At times I banged, when I knew he wasn’t hurting me, but I shouldn’t have taken the risks.”
The 39-year-old Vera isn’t the same fighter he was when he beat three different world champions –Эндзі Лі, Серхіа Мора (двойчы) іSerhiy Dzinziruk. The Texan needs to decide if it’s time to finally hang up his gloves.
“This was awesome, definitely our best show to date,” Granite Chin’sChris Traietti declared after the show. “We feel great about stepping up to give these fighters, especially the locals, a platform to perform on in front of fans. I think a lot of promoters have gotten lazy. They gave us a lane and Granite Chin took advantage. This was our fourth show with fans during the last year. Brian fought hard and he’s a great guy, but he’s not the same guy he was in 2011. He needs to think about what he’s going to do.
“Granite Chin returns here June 26й with another doubleheader. The afternoon show will be the Granite Chin Invitational for open elite boxers. With the New England Golden Gloves canceled again there is a void to fill. If promoters are going to help amateurs, I certainly will, starting June 26й."
ПрэтэндэнтMarquis Bates (8-4, 6 КО) dethroned defending New Hampshire Welterweight ChampionРаян Dibartolomeo (3-2-1, 1 KO) via a sixth-round stoppage in an entertaining co-feature. A devastating overhand right from Bates gave him his new crown as the referee didn’t even count as the ring doctor quickly entered the ring.
Larry “Hitman” Pryor took the contract out onScott Lambert and he wasted little time taking care of business to become the New Hampshire Cruiserweight Champion. Pryor took advantage of his decisive height and reach advantages, closing the show with a perfectly thrown left hook that sent Lambert to the canvas. Lambert managed to beat the count, but the referee stopped the fight midway through the opening round when he saw Lambert wobbling back and forth on rubbery legs.
Lanky lefthandedFrancis “The Tank” Hogan (5-0, 5 КО) graduated last night with a brilliant performance againstLarry “Slo Mo” Smith, who was in his 60й career fight. Hogan put down Smith early in the third round and caught the Texan late in the same round with a lefty-combination to the temple. Smith beat the count, but he was unable to answer the bell for the fourth round, and 20-year-old Hogan became the new New Hampshire Junior Middleweight Champion.
Former New England heavyweight championJustin “Crazy Train” Rolfe (5-2-1, 4 КО) positioned himself for another N.E. title shot with a spectacular knockout ofAlfredo “Choncho” Trevino (9-9-1, 1 KO). The 263-pound Rolfe, fighting out of Fairfield, Мэн, charged across the ring at the bell and put his Arizona opponent to sleep right in his corner, when he was counted out at the 20-seconds mark.
The newest member of the fightin’ Whitley family from western Massachusetts, непераможаным нападаючымDenzel Whitley, cruised to his fourth victory with his fourth knockout. He drilledAquilandro Brandao late in round one and the fight was stopped by the referee.
НепераможныJahye Brown (9-0, 7 КО) captured the vacant ABF Athletic junior middleweight title with a hard fought 8-round unanimous decision over a game Mexican opponent,Dormedes Potes (12-4-1, 9 КО). The two fought toe-to-toe from the opening bell and Brown landed the more effective punches inside to earn the victory.
Promising middleweight prospectJulien “Black Dragon” Baptiste палепшылася 2-0 with his second knockout, blasting outBruno Dias in the third round.
Fighting for the first time in more than eight years, Fall River, Маса ў сярэднім вазеDustin Reinhold (6-4, 2 КО) won a 4-round unanimous decision over pro-debutingЭнтаніAndreozziin what can best be called a rough and tumble match.
Малодшы сярэднімCarlos Castillo’s professional debut was a gem as the Holyoke, MA fighter droppedTheo Desjardon двойчы, the last closing the show late in the first round.
“Cannon” Berry stops Ibarra in 5
UBO All-America Welterweight ChampionBrandon “The Cannon” Berry (21-5-2, 13 КО) successfully defended in the afternoon card’s main event, overcoming a slow start in which he was buzzed to stop challengerGael Ibarra (5-3, 4 КО) in the fifth round.
Berry finished the fight in the fifth, when he unloaded twin barrages of unanswered punches on a trapped Ibarra until the referee waved off the fight.
“I’m glad it wasn’t a 4-round fight,” Berry said after the fight. “He was a strong guy. I was feeling it. He tested me. I want to thank my family and friends here, and Granite Chin and everybody involved in the promotion.”
У са-прыкметах падзеі, New England heavyweight championMike “Fly” Marshall (4-1, 3 КО), in a non-title fight, накаўтаваўTracey Johnson (4-10-6) in the third round.
Popular Boston IrishmanJimmy Torney (3-0, 3 КО) – 6’ 6”, 269 фунтаў. – needed only 42-seconds and one big right to stop pro-debuting heavyweightMarco Nascimento.
Massachusetts welterweightEric “Gladiator” Goff convincingly won his pro debut againstJader Alves(0-5) as he pitched a 4-round shutout
Three-time New England Golden Gloves championDemek “Hightower” Edmonds had an awesome pro debut, dropping cruiserweightFrancisco Neto twice in round one, the second a vicious body shot ending the fight. Edmonds, a southpaw from Worcester, Масачусэтс, is a college graduate and bonafide prospect to watch.

3-час, 2-division world champion Jose Antonio Rivera returns with a bang KO winner in his first fight in 7 гады

Вустер, Маса. (Жнівень 19, 2018) – Seven years after his last fight, “Gallo” Хасэ Антоніо Рывера returned to the ring in grand fashion last night (Субота) у загалоўку “Вяртанне на радзіму, presented by Granite Chin Promotions in association with Rivera Promotions Entertainment, у The Palladium ў Вустере, Масачусэтс.
The 45-year-old Rivera (42-6-1, 25 КО), 35 pounds lighter than he was in February when he started training, packed the house in his hometown, fully entertained his supportive fans. Трохразовы, two-division world champion Rivera pressured Larry “Slomoshun: Каваль (10-38-1, 7 КО) from the opening bell and he never let up.
It took a few rounds for Rivera to wear off the rust, but he fed Smith a steady diet of body shots, gradually breaking down his opponent, as he won round after round on points. Twice in the sixth round it looked like Smith was done, but the tough Texan showed a lot of heart to survive.
У рэшце рэшт, Rivera closed the show in the seventh round, when Smith broke his hand in the fifth round and was unable to continue, kneeling in his corner, obviously in pain.
“I’ve always been tough,” Rivera said after the fight, “but I was a little rusty. He tested me early but, once he saw I wasn’t going anywhere and knew he was in for a fight. I started warming up in the fourth round. I was always a 12-round fighter. I didn’t know he broke his hand until after the fight. Я выдатна сябе адчуваю. We gave a good fight to the fans who have always supported me.”
“I give myself a C+ tonight. I’m going to talk with my family, but I’m thinking about one more fight, to make it 50 for his pro career).”
Хасэ Антоніо Рывера (R) had a successful comeback fight
У са-прыкметах падзеі, Worcester super middleweight Кендрыка Болль, Малодшы. (10-1-2, 7 КО) demolished Фабіян “El Lobo” Valdez (2-4), flooring him with a right uppercut and soon after finished him with a vicious body shot for a technical-knockout victory in the opening round. The popular Ball was fighting at home for the first time as a professional
The rematch between Worcester junior middleweight Khiary Шэры (16-4, 12 КО) і Antonio Chaves Fernandez (9-34, 4 КО) ended in the same fashion as their first encounter did three years ago. Also fighting at home for the first time, Gray blasted out his game opponent, cracking him with a picture-perfect, left-fight combination that put Fernandez on his back. Fernandez beat the count, but referee Bob Benoit halted the action.
Southbridge, MA junior middleweight Вільфрэда “Sucaro” язычнік (5-0, 3 КО) застаўся непераможаным, using a relentless body attack to drop Engelberto “Guarura” Валенсуэла (11-15, 3 КО) тры разы, the last ending the fight midway through the third round.
Springfield, MA junior lightweight Joshua Orta (1-0, 1 KO) turned in an impressive pro debut in a barn-burner that ended when (1-8-1, 1 KO), of Worcester, was unable to continue fighting after the third round.
Worcester welterweight Eslih Owuso (1-0) pitched a shutout in his pro debut, decking veteran Браян “The Brick” Абрагам (6-31-2, 6 КО) у два разы ў другім туры, на шляху да аднагалосным рашэннем перамогу.
In the opening bout of the night, 45-гадоў Jose Angel “KO” Ортис (5-14-1, 2 КО) ўпаў Patrick Leal (0-5) 10-seconds into the fight, once more later in the opening round, and stopped him in the second.

In front of nearly 10,000 hometown fans in Worcester, Rivera capped his boxing career by winning a 12-round unanimous decision in 2006 over defending champion Алехандра Гарсія(25-1) for the WBA World super welterweight title.
“The idea to return to the ring started with my son. Эй-Джэй, and I talking about chasing history,” Рывэра патлумачыў. “We are not able to put that together right now (A.J. was born with Spina Bifida and he was unable to secure medical clearance in time for the Aug. 17й show.), but because of my hard work these last six months, I felt that it was only fitting to continue with my fight.
“Granite Chin Promotions has been very instrumental to make sure that this show is put together in the most professional manner possible. I won’t think our promotional company (Jos and A.J. own and operate RPE Promotions Entertainment) would have been able to pull this off. All the negotiations had to be done and me training the only way I know how, at a championship level, would have been too much for us to handle.”
Акцыі з гранітнага падбародка’ co-promoter Chuck Shearns дабаўленай, “When Jose and I started talking about his ring return, I was the last person to think he was crazy. We were friends during his championship days and I know how incredibly committed and disciplined Jose is. Я ваяваў у 49 гадоў, not to compare myself to the level Jose has been on, but I know that it can be done. What everyone should know is how well Jose has taken care of himself during his thirties and into his forties. Did I ever think that Крыс (Traietti, GCP co-promoter) and I would be co-promoting Jose’s comeback? Ня, but I’m happy to be involved and I will support him as far as he wants to take this. He’s been training like he’s 25 and Jose’s going to surprise some people.”
During Rivera’s title reigns, unlike other world champions, he also held a full-time job as a court officer in the Massachusetts Trial Court, a position in Worcester that he still holds 17 years later. Between working and training, never mind his family responsibilities, Jose somehow manages to balance everything in his extremely busy life.
“Let’s just say it makes for a busy schedule,” Rivera remarked. “I am committed to taking care of my family and will do whatever it takes. I usually run before work and train after work. Starting early and finishing late makes for busy days, but the job needs to get done. Зараз, I’m in the middle of the hardest period of training. The week of the fight is more about preparing mentally and making weight. There’s nothing you can do the week of the fight to help you get into better shape.”
Rivera isn’t under any illusions that his comeback will lead to another major world title. The plan is for him to have two more fights to reach a total of 50 а пра, but he’s taking things one fight at a time, and he still hopes his next fight, tentatively slated for later this year, will be on the same card as his son’s pro debut.
Rivera last fought in 2011, taking an eight-round decision over Paul Mpendo, at Mohegan Sun Arena in Connecticut. The battle-tested Galvan, his Aug. 17й opponent from Indiana, has fought other world champions, Including Заб Джуда, Хуліа Сезар Чавес-, Малодшы., Jorge Paez і Пол Спадафора.
“I hear he comes to fight and that he likes to fool around a bit to try and get into his opponent’s head,” Rivera added. I’ve concentrated on me, my timing and focus on the game plan
“Training for this fight has been more mental than anything else. I have been able to reach peak performance at 45 training like I did in my prime. The most important thing is that, working with my trainer Sean Fitzgerald, I’ve been focused on making sure my timing gets better since it’s been seven years since I last fought.
“І, вядома, it’s always a great feeling to box in front of my hometown fans. Their support is always appreciated.”
