Two-Time Gold Medalist and Professional Superstar Claressa Shields and Her Team Send Congratulations to USA Boxing’s Olympic Medal Winners

Two-time Olympic champion Claressa Shields, from Flint, Michigan, is proud of Team USA’s Olympic boxing medalists and the whole USA Boxing squad, which featured five female participants for the first time. The only American boxer ever to win back-to-back Olympic gold medals, Shields stood atop the medal podium at the first-ever Olympic Games to feature women’s boxing in 2012, before duplicating the feat at the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro. The reigning middleweight Olympic champion was pleased with the United States’ performance at the Tokyo Olympics, which featured three silver medals and a bronze in the first appearance of a women’s welterweight competition.


“I’m super proud of the U.S. fhoireann. The Olympics is the hardest tournament to medal in and all of you showed a lot of grit, hard work, determination and skill,” Shields said.


Earning medals in Tokyo were female welterweight O’shae Jones from nearby Toledo, Ohio, who took home a bronze, as well as a pair of professional boxers in Duke Ragan (featherweight) and Keyshawn Davis (lightweight), and California’s Richard Torrez Jr, (super heavyweight) who each won silver medals. The four medals represent the highest total for Team USA since Ricardo Juarez, Ricardo Williams, Clarence Vinson and Jermain Taylor grabbed hardware (two silver and two bronze) ag an 2000 Cluichí Oilimpeacha.


An 2020 Olympic Games featured the addition of two women’s weight divisions, bantamweight (119 lb.) agus welterweight (152 lb.), which shows the continued growth of the sport of women’s boxing throughout the world.


Shields, who in addition to her two Olympic gold medals has won ten world titles in three weight divisions and become undisputed champion in two weight classes in just eleven fights as a professional and recently launched a two-sport career with her professional MMA debut for the PFL, says that having Jones as another American female professional boxer sporting an Olympic medal would be good for the sport. Jones has previously expressed a desire to enter the pro ranks.


“An injection of new top-level talent is always positive,"A dúirt Shields (11-0-0, 2 Kos), who aside from making her successful MMA fighting debut in June, made history last March by dethroning Canada’s Marie-Eve Dicaire and becoming the first boxer in the four-belt era to be an undisputed champion in two divisions. She also retained her WBC and WBO junior middleweight titles with the victory and claimed Dicaire’s IBF belt, as well as the vacant WBA Championship. “The idea of a new generation of ladies turning pro and deepening the talent pool with Olympic-level skills will be good for the sport of women’s boxing.”


Shields went 77-1 as an amateur and turned professional after her second Olympic victory in 2016. Her 2017 battle with Szilvia “Sunset” Szabados was the first female main event to be broadcast on American premium television. In addition to currently being the WBC, WBO, IBF and WBA champion at 154 punt, Shields had previously unified all four of the major sanctioning body belts at middleweight (160 lb..).


Shields has had a dominating, record-breaking run thus far in her professional career, tearing through other women once considered the best in their divisions with relative ease. She and Great Britain’s Katie Taylor, also undefeated as a pro, have lifted women’s boxing to new heights in recent years, leading an increasingly deeper talent pool that will only get deeper with the addition of the 2020 Olympians from around the world.


Shields’ manager, Mark Taffet of Mark Taffet Media, agrees that the impending influx of new talent to women’s boxing will benefit the sport as a whole.


I’m excited for the four Americans who brought home Olympic medals this year, particularly welterweight bronze medal winner Oshae Jones who I believe will be one to watch in the next few years,” said Taffet. “The female boxing talent pool, and importantly the U.S. pool, continues to improve and bodes well for the future of women’s boxing and the continued gains toward equality across the board.


Shields’ promoter, Dmitriy Salita of Salita Promotions, says he’s excited for the future and proud of USA Boxing, who produced four medal winners while undergoing a deadly pandemic that severely hampered the ability to train properly


“As a former amateur and professional boxer, I know the sacrifices required to fight on the elite level and I congratulate Team USA for all of its successes this year, even through all the added challenges that Covid-19 created,” said Salita.

Six Team USA Boxers Punch Ticket to Olympic Games Tokyo 2020

COLORADO SPRINGS, Lap. (Bealtaine 12, 2021) — The Boxing Task Force (BTF) announced today the 49 quota places, originally to be awarded at the Road to Tokyo Americas Qualifier, that were awarded to boxers to compete in the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 this summer. The quota places included six Team USA boxers, which was based off the BTF Rankings.

“These six boxers have been staples within our program and have established themselves amongst the world’s best by their performances during the past quad,” stated USA Boxing High Performance DirectorMatt Johnson. “Now it is time for them to perform at the world’s biggest stage in Tokyo.”

Representing Team USA at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020, pending United States Olympic & Paralympic Committee approval, BeidhRashida Ellis (lynn, Aifreann.) Virginia Fuchs(Houston, Texas), Naomi Graham (Fayetteville, N.C.), Delante Johnson (Cleveland, Ohio), Oshae Jones (Toledo, Ohio) agusRichard Torrez Jr. (Tulare, Calif.). All six boxers will be competing in their first Olympic Games.

2019 Elite Women’s World Championships bronze medalist Ellis will compete in the women’s lightweight (132 lbs./60 kg) roinn. Ellis won bronze at the 2019 Pan American Games to add to her BTF rankings to solidify her position in Tokyo as the second highest ranked America’s boxer and 12ú overall in her weight class. Ellis will be looking to win Team USA’s first women’s lightweight Olympic medal.

“Qualifying for the Olympics has been one of my deepest dreams,” mentioned Ellis. “I never doubt my ability. I have stopped being afraid of what could go wrong and start being excited about what could go right. Mar sin,, I embrace my mistakes and learn from them, as my mistakes have helped me improve and reach the Olympics. I don’t do easy; I make things happen. The hard work and dedication with effort and determination, I can succeed.”

Fuchs will represent Team USA in the flyweight division (112 lbs./51 kg). The 33-year-old will be looking to earn USA Boxing its second medal in the women’s flyweight division since the introduction of the event in London 2012. Fuchs brings an impressive resume to the ring, including a bronze medal at the 2018 Elite Women’s World Championships and silver medal from the 2019 Pan Cluichí Mheiriceá, which places her as the second highest America’s flyweight boxer and 16ú overall in the BTF rankings.

“I have been waiting for this moment for a very long time. I am so excited I can finally call myself an Olympian,” stated Fuchs. “With all this world has been through and having to postpone the Olympics a whole year, I am proud to say I am one of the participants in what will be known as the most recognized Olympics in history. I am ready to represent my country in the most respected way and bring home the gold!"

2019 Pan American Games Graham is the highest seeded America’s female middleweight (165 lbs./75 kg) boxer in the BTF rankings, where she currently sits eighth overall. Graham earned points from her Pan American Games title, as well as her third-place finish at the 2018 Elite Women’s World Championships and top five finish at the 2019 edition. Graham, who will become USA Boxing’s first active female military member to compete in an Olympic Games, will be in contention to grab Team USA’s third straight Olympic gold medal in the women’s middleweight division.

“It feels unreal that I am going to the Olympics,” Graham stated when talking about earning her place to Tokyo. “I continue to surprise myself by finding my own limits, and then having the courage to blow past them.”

Joneswill step into the ring in one of the two newly added women’s weight classes, an welterweight (152 lbs./69 kg) roinn. Jones, who made history in 2019 with her gold medal performance at the Pan American Games, will look to continue making history by becoming the first Olympic gold medalists in her weight division. The 23-year-old added valuable points to her rankings with her top five placement at the 2019 Elite Women’s World Championships to finish as the top America’s boxer and seventh in the overall BTF rankings for the welterweight division to punch her ticket to the Olympics.

“I may only take up one spot, but my one spot represents so much,” shared Jones. “I’m beyond grateful for the chance to represent women, African Americans, my small city of Toledo, ach níos tábhachtaí fós, my country.”

The second Ohioan to represent Team USA, Johnson, extends the streak of Cleveland-native boxing Olympians to four, following in the footsteps of Charles Conwell (2016), Terrell Gausha (2012) and Raynell Williams (2008). The welterweight (152 lbs./69 kg), who first caught the attention of the boxing world with his gold medal performance at the 2016 Youth World Championships, earned his ranking points through his bronze medal finish at the 2019 Pan American Games and top 16 placement at the 2019 Elite World Championships. Johnson was the third highest seeded America’s boxer and 19ú overall.

“My struggles are my stripes, and I wear them on my back, so that the people around me can see that even when you’re living in a jungle, you can still chase your dreams,” stated Johnson. “I am not only doing this for my city, but for my two coaches, Dante Benjamin Sr. and Clint Martin, whom I lost during my journey to these Games.”

Torrez, the highest ranked super heavyweight (201+ lbs./91+ kg) boxer from the Americas and 11ú tríd is tríd, earned his place through his third-place performance at the 2019 Pan American Games and top five standing at that year’s Elite Men’s World Championships. Torrez, a former Youth World Championships bronze medalist, will be the first American boxer to compete in this weight class since 2012.

“Everyone is happy they’re going to the Olympics, it’s everyone’s dream, but I need to be there,” said Torrez. “The fire that was instilled in me before I could even walk, that drives me to be the best, the fire that has been in my family for generations, has overflowed. It has set ablaze all my second options, and it has made ashes of any other possibility besides that of success.”

Team USA will be guided by USA Boxing National Head Coach Billy Walsh during these Olympic Games.

“It is fantastic news for our six boxers who have worked endlessly for the past five years to become an Olympian,” Walsh shared. “We now focus on the next stage of the process, to become an Olympic Champion.”

The boxing competition will begin on Saturday, Iúil 24ú (JST). Continue to checkusaboxing.org and USA Boxing’s social media platforms to stay updated on more information regarding the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020.

Is curadh Oilimpeach Sóisearach Náisiúnta 5-uaire í freisin (2015 trí 2019).

Amir Anderson de chuid Syracuse ag dul ó mhadra go dtí an madra uachtarach

2020 Craobhchomórtais Náisiúnta Dornálaíochta SAM

Farraige. 25-Aibreán. 4, i Shreveport, Louisiana 

COLORADO SPRINGS, Lap. (Márta 8, 2021) – Sna 2019 Craobhchomórtais Náisiúnta Dornálaíochta SAM, Amir Anderson bhí sé ina iomaitheoir réasúnta anaithnid ó Syracuse (N.Y.), ach i mbliana creideann sé go bhfuil sé ar cheann de na “madraí is fearr” sa chinneadh 165 punt.

Beidh Anderson san iomaíocht i rannóg na n-óg ag an 2020 USA Comórtas Náisiúnta Dornálaíochta, curtha ar athló de bharr na paindéime COVID-19 ó Nollaig seo caite go Márta 25 Aibreán 3, i Shreveport, An.

Tá sprioc Anderson ag na craobhchomórtais seo simplí: tá sé ag iarraidh a bhuachan chun sliotán a ghlasáil ar Fhoireann Óige Dornálaíochta na Stát Aontaithe, a thabharfaidh cos suas dó ó thaobh cáiliú le haghaidh an 2024 Cluichí Oilimpeacha i Bpáras.

“Cáilíonn an buaiteoir i ngach rang meáchain d’Fhoireann Óige Dornálaíochta SAM,” a mhínigh sé. “Is malartaigh iad na dara háit agus is féidir leo an fhoireann a dhéanamh mura bhfuil an buaiteoir in ann ar chúis ar bith. Ba mhaith liom a bhuachan! 

“An uair dheireanach ní raibh aon rud le cailliúint agam ag na Náisiúnaigh. Anois, Tá gach rud le cailliúint agam. Déanaim mo chuid taighde agus miondealaíonn mé trodaithe eile i mo rang meáchain. Beidh mé ag díriú níos mó an uair seo mar bhí mé i mo underdog anois agus anois, Is mise an madra is fearr i mo roinn.”

An 17-bliain d'aois Anderson tasted cheana féin rath, onóracha barr a ghabháil ag an 2019 Sóisearach Oscailte agus 2019 Oscailte Réigiúnach an Oirthir, chomh maith le críochnú sa dara háit ag an 2018 & 2019 Na Cluichí Oilimpeacha Sóisearacha Náisiúnta.

Sinsear ardscoile fós, Déanann Amir cur síos air féin mar dornálaí uileghabhálach a bhfuil stíl uathúil aige inar féidir leis bosca a chur air nó bualadh, bhuail an uillinn agus caith a lán de na punches.

Cosúil le gach dornálaí amaitéarach, Ba dhúshlán ollmhór é an bhliain seo caite oiliúint a fháil, mar gheall ar shrianta paindéime COVID-19. “Thraenáil mé sé huaire an chloig in aghaidh an lae i m’íoslach le dul i mbun cleachtaí an-mhaith,” a dúirt Anderson. “Agus rith mé mo mhíle, freisin. Nuair a d'oscail mo seomra aclaíochta i mí Iúil seo caite 2ú, bhí sé teoranta mar sin bhí orm a workout fós i mo íoslach. Bhí sé deacair fanacht dírithe, ach bhí a fhios agam conas.

“Bhí sé ar intinn agam go leor comórtas réigiúnach agus náisiúnta a bhuachan chun aitheantas náisiúnta a fháil. Theastaigh uaim troid sa Bhulgáir leis an bhfoireann sóisear, ach cuireadh sin ar ceal, freisin. Chuir an phaindéim bac ar ais dom, ach feicfimid cad atá i ndán do 2021.”

Is é an Craobh Náisiúnta an chéad turas i dtreo sprioc Pháras Amir Anderson 2024 ag na Cluichí Oilimpeacha.

The one and only 1956 olympic gold medalist pete rademacher

COLORADO SPRINGS, Lap. (Lúnasa 27, 2020) - 1956 Bhuaigh bonn óir OilimpeachPete Rademacheris the only boxer to fight for a world title in his pro debut.

Rademacher, who died this past June at the age of 91 in Sandusky, Ohio, was a native of Tieton, Washington. He had a 72-7 taifead amaitéarach, highlighted by his gold medal performance at the 1956 Olympic Games in Melbourne, Australia.

Rademacher started boxing during his rehabilitation for Rheumatic Fever, which he contracted while attending Castle Heights Military Academy. The gifted heavyweight captured top honors at numerous national tournaments, lena n-áirítear an 1951 & 1953 National AAU Championships, 1954 All-Army Championship and Service Championships, and Olympic Trials.

In Australia, he knocked out the three opponents he faced, in ord, Josef Nemec (Czechoslovakia) in the quarterfinals, South AfricanDaan Bekker sa semifinals, and the Soviet Union’sLev Mukhin in the opening round of the championship final for the gold medal.

Rademacher was so hot after the Olympics that he publicly proclaimed that he would be able to become world heavyweight champion in his pro debut. Soon after he became the only fighter to make his pro debut in a world title fight, when he challenged defending World heavyweight championFloyd Patterson (32-1)  ar Lúnasa 22, 1957 in Seattle. Rademacher floored Patterson in the second round, áfach, he was dropped six times before the fight, which was refereed by Hall of FamerTommy Loughran, was halted at 2:57 of that round.

Rademacher, who was an offensive lineman on Washington State University’s football team, didn’t take many easy fights during his 5-year pro career (15-7-1, 8 Kos). His most notable pro victories were against World title challengerGeorge Chuvalo (17-3-1) and future Hall of Famer and World middleweight championBobo Olson(87-12), both by way of 10-round unanimous decisions, as well as technical knockouts overLaMar Clark (42-1) and NorwegianBuddy Thurman(32-5-1), faoi ​​seach, sa 10ú and ninth rounds.

Rademacher’s pro losses were to some of the best heavyweights in the world, such as Hall of FamerArchie Moore, along with world title challengersKarl Mildenberger (29-1), undefeatedDoug Jones (17-0) agusZorro Foley (40-2-2), who had been Rademacher’s arch-rival in the amateur ranks.
