IVAN BARANCHYK VS. ABEL RAMOS – 10 Rounds Super Lightweights

The offensive-minded Baranchyk packs outstanding power in both hands. Until winning a 10-round decision over Zhimin Wang últim Set. 23 a ShoBox, he’d won nine consecutive fights by knockout. En la seva última baralla, Baranchyk scored a 10-round decision over Wilberth López a Desembre. 10.

 

“I am looking forward to continuing my pursuit of a world title,” said the 5-foot-10-inch Baranchyk, who will make the first defense of his USBA junior welterweight title. “Ramos is a very tough fighter and a ShoBox alum himself, so I will enjoy knocking him out.

 

“I think I’ve proved my durability by going 10 rounds in my last two fights. My team wants me to box more and let the knockouts come, so that is something we work on all the time.’’

 

The former European amateur standout, who was born in Minsk, Bielorússia i viu a Brooklyn, is making his fourth appearance on the prospect developmental series. The 24-year-old’s two other ShoBox obertures, both first-round knockouts versus undefeated foes, sumava un conjunt 2:49. Tots 10 of Baranchyk’s knockouts have come inside three full rounds, incloent sis a la primera.

 

The skilled Ramos is a five-year pro who’s won three in a row, all by knockout in 2016, since his only loss, a ninth-round TKO to highly regarded undefeated Regis Prograis (15-0) a 2015 a ShoBox.

 

Una perspectiva en 140 pounds and a legit test for Baranchyk, the 5-foot-9-inch Ramos was a stellar amateur. The 25-year-old was the bronze medalist at both the 2010 U.S. Campionat Nacional de PAL i 2010 U.S. Campionats Nacionals (a 141 lliura) before turning pro in September 2011.

 

“I’m very excited for this fight and I am preparing for a war,” said Ramos, who possesses an aggressive style, good skills and movement. “Baranchyk likes to fight moving forward as do I, so it is going to be an action-packed main event at Buffalo Run.”

 

Ramos, who grew up in Gettysburg, Pare. and resides in Casa Grande, Ariz., is coming off a seventh-round TKO over Juan Jesus últim Agost. 26. En el seu ShoBox debut a 2014, Ramos and fellow unbeaten Maurici Agafar (12-0-1 anar a) slugged it out for eight rounds, battling to a majority draw in one of the most exciting fights on the series that year.

TREY LIPPE MORRISON VS. DANIEL MARTZ – Eight Rounds, Pesos pesats

The power-punching Morrison has recorded nine first-round knockouts, three second-round knockouts and one fourth-round KO in a career that began in February 2014. Morrison, who bears a striking resemblance to his late father in both his looks and his fighting style, has fought all but one of his fights in Oklahoma but trains at the Wild Card Boxing Club with Hall of Fame trainer Freddie Roach.

 

A la seva sortida abans de l'última, Morrison won his ShoBox debut with a ruthless first-round TKO over previously undefeated Ed Latimore (13-0) al setembre. 23, 2016.

 

Latimore was expected to provide Morrison with his most daunting test but wound up getting demolished, going down twice, in Morrison’s first start since he underwent surgery on his right tendon from an injury suffered in January, 2016.

 

“Health-wise, I’m great,’’ said the 6-foot-2, 27-year-old Morrison who resides in Hollywood, Califòrnia. “I’m going to approach this fight like I did my last fight, like I do all my fights. I can’t afford to look past any fight. I have to take them one at a time. I just have to focus on my opponent.

 

“My training has been going really good, the transition with me and Freddie continues to be smooth. I just want to continue to improve. I’m hoping for a good performance, and I think I’ll have one. All I can do is give the best I can and then whatever happens will happen.’’

 

Morrison, who was born in Vinita, Oklahoma., is one of promoter Tony Holden’s group of fighters known as the “Four State Franchise.” They include Trey’s half-brother Kenzie Morrison, Baranchyk i Dillon i Jesse Cook. The Oklahoma-based Holden promoted Tommy Morrison for most of his career.

 

The 26-year-old Martz is a classic all-or-nothing heavyweight. All but three of Martz’ wins have come via knockout, and he aims to pick up his fifth win over an undefeated opponent when he takes on Lippe Morrison.

 

Martz, who stands at 6-foot-7, handed heavyweight prospect Alexis Santos his first defeat and has shared the ring with newly crowned WBO heavyweight champion Josep Parker.

 

LENIN CASTILLO VS. JOE WILLIAMS – Eight Rounds, Peses lleugers

Castell, who represented the Dominican Republic at the 2008 Jocs Olímpics d'estiu a Pequín, turned pro in August 2010. He’s won three straight by knockout, since boxing an eight-round majority draw with unbeaten Travis Peterkin (15-0) a l'agost. 21, 2015.

 

El 6-peus-2, 28-year-old Castillo has 10 nocauts, and all have come in five rounds or less.

 

“I know that Williams is undefeated and that he will come in at his best,” Castillo said. “Bé, I’m coming with my best too, so it going to be an exciting fight. It’s two undefeated fighters – the perfect kind of fight for ShoBox."

 

Williams, who owns an amateur victory over undefeated prospect Andrew Tabiti, was a three-time New York Golden Gloves Champion and a 2012 Campió Nacional de Guants d'Or. La 2012 U.S. Olympic Team Alternate, Williams is popular on the New York fight scene and a union worker outside the ring.

 

The 28-year-old has been dominant since turning pro in September 2013, however he’ll be taking a leap in class in facing former Olympian Castillo.

 

“I’m already in great shape and I won’t be stopped,", Va dir Williams, who’s fought eight of his 10 fights in New York. “I’m a throwback fighter, the last of a dying breed that will fight and beat anyone in my way. It’s hard to find a fighter who can do all this.

I can’t wait till Febrer. 10 because I’m finally getting my shot on national television to show the world what I can do. This will open a lot of doors for me and the world will see the next superstar of boxing, Joseph ‘MackWilliams.

 

JON FERNANDEZ VS. ERNESTO GARZA – Eight Rounds, Super Featherweights

Fernández, of Bilbao, el País Basc, Espanya, is co-promoted by DiBella Entertainment and legendary Argentine superstar and former longtime middleweight world championSergio Martinez. He was an amateur champion in his native Spain and member of the Spanish National Team in 2013 i 2014.

 

A pro since March 2015, the 21-year-old has won eight straight by knockout, all inside five rounds. The 5-foot-10 Fernandez was a chief sparring partner for Carl Frampton as he prepared for his Jan. 28 rematch with Leo Santa Creu.

 

“This fight is very important to my boxing career and I will put on a great performance for the fans in attendance and those watching on SHOWTIME,” said the-5-foot-11 Fernandez who is coming off a fourth-round TKO over Mikael Mkrtchan (16-1 anar a) to capture the WBC Youth Super Featherweight World Title last Octubre. 8.

 

“Garza is a pressure fighter that throws a lot of punches. He reminds me of Nacif Martinez, who I beat by TKO in Connecticut. I think I can beat Garza by KO, massa. His style is perfect for me.”

 

Febrer. 10 will be Fernandez’ second fight in the United States, and second outside of Spain. He’s remained active since turning pro in March 2015; he fought five times that year, and five times in 2016.

ATLANTIC CITY (Jan. 21, 2017) – In a stunningly one-sided affair, Danny “Baby Face Assassin” Roman scored an upset ninth-round TKO over previously unbeaten Adam López in a WBA Super Bantamweight Title Eliminator Divendres en l'esdeveniment principal de ShoBox: La Nova Generació on SHOWTIME from Bally’s Atlantic City Hotel and Casino.

 

Lopez’s trainer, renowned Ronnie Shields, decided his boxer shouldn’t take any more punishment and asked the referee to stop the contest after nine completed rounds.

Romà (21-2-1, 8 KOs), who was ranked No. 4 a l'AMB, va guanyar el seu 14º in a row in a career-best performance. He out-boxed and out-slugged the No. 3-rated Lopez (16-1-1, 8 KOs), de Sant Antoni, Texas, from the outset. Roman seized command in the fourth round with two knockdowns, first with a left hook and then, with a left uppercut.

López, who was appearing on ShoBox for a fifth time, tried to fight back, but Roman’s skill and harder pinpoint-punching led to the scheduled 12-round fight being stopped between rounds nine and 10.

Win the victory, Roman is now in position to challenge WBA 122-pound World Champion Nehomar Cermeno.

“The main event was a shocker,", Va dir ShoBox analista expert Steve Farhood. “We didn’t know much about Danny Roman. And he sure earned that title fight against Nehomar Cermeno. It’s a bittersweet for us, per a López. We know him well. He’s fought five times on ShoBox but now doesn’t look like he is going to get that title fight since this is the second opportunity he had and he took a real beating. It’s going to take a while for him to come back.”

 

In the final three rounds, Roman out-landed Lopez 107-27, i 84-20 en cops de força. In the final session, Roman landed more punches (43) than Lopez threw. It was a merciless beating followed by a merciful stoppage. Roman landed 54 per cent dels seus tirs de l'energia, Incloent 67 per cent a la ronda final.

“Adam Lopez is a great and tough fighter,", va dir Roman. “He came prepared, but I came out with the victory.

“I started hurting him with uppercuts. I dropped him twice the fourth. I felt I was going to stop him there, but the bell saved him.

“My plan was to break him down little by little, and I felt that was starting to take effect as he was losing his steam in the third round, but he kept on going.

“I knew he would have one last stand, but I knew I would stop him. Even if they didn’t stop it in the corner, I knew I would get him out of there.

"Ara, I am going to go back to the gym. I have to start working on the basics again and begin to prepare for my title shot. I’m very excited.”

López, who left the ring promptly after the stoppage, was not happy with his performance.

“He was the better man aquesta nit,” he said as he sat with his head down in the locker room. “I kept trying to catch him with uppercuts and I got caught every time. I was trying to get on the inside, but it was hard.

“I thought I was clawing my way back into the fight, but my eye started hurting. It was the first uppercut that knocked me down in the fourth that got me right in the eye. It was hard to keep on going with my eye like that.

“When I got back to the corner after the ninth round, Ronnie told me he had seen enough and he stopped the fight.”

In the co-main event of the evening, Super Middleweight invicte Ronald "Flatline" Ellis took a unanimous eight-round decision in a messy-grappler-type affair overChristopher "Ice Cold" Brooker amb les puntuacions 79-73 dues vegades i 77-75.

“Ellis-Brooker was an ugly fight,'' Va dir Farhood. “Brooker didn’t really have any answers. Ellis won clearly but he didn’t shine, mostly because of his opponent’s style.”

 

Ellis (14-0-1, 10 KOs), de Lynn, Missa., established the tone of the fight with an explosive first round in which he went 27-of-90 overall—both high totals for the fight—to Brooker’s 8-of-45. Ellis won the body shots battle (64 a 31) and landed sharper combinations during the rare moments the fighters were at distance.

In the final three rounds, Ellis continued applying pressure with accuracy.

“I am back and I want some more,", va dir Ellis. “That was a good fight. I fought smarter today than in my last ShoBox aparença. I’m not going to lie, he was tough and came at me very hard, but I maneuvered. Estic molt content amb el meu rendiment.

 

“He was big and strong and was holding a lot, but my boxing skills took over in the fight. He was trying to get on my nerves, but I knew that my skills would get me the win.”

 

Brooker (11-3, 5 KOs), who was very unhappy with the judges’ scorecards said, “I don’t know what these judges are looking at. I had the better ring generalship, aggressiveness and I brought all the pressure.

 

“I feel that because he was undefeated, the judges must have put him on a pedestal. Even though I have a couple losses, look who I have fought and defeated. I am an elite-level fighter as well, and I should get that same respect. That’s why SHOWTIME has me on.

 

“At the end of the day, I just fight. It is up to fans who watch, they are the real judges for me.”

A l'obertura de la televisió, invicte pes súper lleuger Kenneth “Bossman” Sims Jr.Emmanuel “Renegade” Robles the second loss of his career in a closer than the scorecards reflected eight-round unanimous decision. It was scored 79-72 dues vegades i 78-73.

“Kenneth Sims Jr. is the typical ShoBox perspectiva,'' Va dir Farhood. “He showed a lot of good skills. He fought a different fight than the one we expected. He was more aggressive than we thought he’d be. With his amateur background and now the exposure on TV, I think he is a potential star.”

 

Sims (11-0, 3 KOs), de Chicago, Ill., que va passar la sisena ronda per primera vegada en la seva carrera, began the fight with an overwhelming high-volume attack highlighted by vicious body shots.

Robles (15-2-1, 5 KOs), de Sant Diego, Qualif., però, picked up the pace and took advantage of Sims slowing his pace in rounds four through six. Robles upped his work rate and out-landed Sims 78-66 total. Referee Bengy Estives took a point way from Sims in round six for dropping his mouthpiece.

Sims gritted his teeth and caught his second wind in the seventh and eighth by out-landing Robles 49-34 en general i 46-24 power to grab a wider-than-expected decision.

“I didn’t have my best performance, but I still got the win,” Sims said. “I was trying too hard for a knockout, and that’s not me. He was a durable opponent, but my performance had nothing to do with that.

“I want to talk to my team about my next fight. My speed and feet were the difference in the fight, but I did not use them as much as I should.”

Robles, who was disappointed with the verdict, acknowledged Sims’ speed.

“He was moving a lot and I couldn’t neutralize that,’’ Robles said. “He was slicker than I thought he was going to be. I was putting on a lot of pressure and wanted to work the body, but he was slick and able to withstand what I was doing.

“I just have to get back to training and get better. You’ll see more of me. I will be back.”

Divendres de three-fight telecast will re-air Dilluns, Gener 23 a 10 p.m. I/PT on SHOWTIME EXTREME and will be available on SHOWTIME ON DEMAND beginning January 21.

Amb una victòria, Lopez will become the mandatory challenger for WBA Super Bantamweight champion Nehomar Cermeno, and he realizes that he has chance to be mentioned with the elite of the 122-pound division.
This would be a life changing win,” Va dir López. “It would be privilege and a blessing to fight for the great title. I feel that because I have been on this stage now for the fifth time, it could be a little bit of an advantage. He has fought on some swing bouts before, but I know what to expect in the days leading up to Friday night. Amb això es diu, ShoBox is a great platform for young prospects like me and can turn us into contenders. It has also raised my stature in terms of gaining more fans. A lot of people have seen me on SHOWTIME and it has got my name out there. This is a high stakes fight. I am putting all cards in and I am taking this as there is no demà. I am going to put on a great show and I think, I will come out with the victory.

ADAM LOPEZ VS. DANNY ROMAN – 10 Rondes, Super Bantamweights

López, de Sant Antoni, Texas, a través de Phoenix, Ariz., is a prototypical ShoBox prospect-turned-contender. Ell és 3-0-1 on the series, having defeated three previous unbeaten boxers on the series: Mario Muniz (11-0) in a hard-fought 10-round decision on Feb. 19, 2016, vèncer Eliezer Acquino (17-0-1) across 10 rounds on July 17, 2015, and knocking out Pablo Cruz (11-0) in the second round on March 13, 2015. En la seva més recent ShoBox excursió, Lopez boxed a 12-round draw with Roman Reynoso(18-1-1) al juliol 22, 2016.

"Aquesta serà la meva lluita més dura. It is all about levels and progressing,’’ Lopez said of the matchup between the 26-year-old world-ranked contenders. “This may be my lastShoBox fight so I want to save the best for the last.

“Roman is very good fighter and I’m ready for a tough fight. He’s progressed a lot. He’s a good puncher, counter puncher and works the body. But I’m ready for whatever he brings. A win would be hugeit puts me in contention to fight a world champion.’’

An excellent boxer-puncher and tactician that likes to counter, Lopez was a standout amateur before going pro in February 2012. He is coming off an eighth-round knockout over Carlos Valcarcel al novembre. 11, 2016, and is facing likely his toughest test to date in Lopez.

 

Roman has won 13 in a row dating to March 2014 – and none of the fights have been close. Va continuar 4-0 a 2014, 6-0 a 2015 i 4-0 a 2016. The Los Angeles native, who is coming of an eight-round decision over previously unbeaten Marlon Olea (12-0) últim Novembre. 18, farà la seva ShoBox and East Coast debut in just his second outing outside of Southern California.

 

“I’ve been extremely active over the last few years and now all the hard work is starting to pay off,’’ said Roman, a pro since October 2009. “This is a tremendous opportunity and the type of fight I’ve been preparing for. Adam Lopez is a great fighter, and he’s highly ranked just like me. We are going to give the fans an exciting fight.

 

“Puc caixa, I can brawl. I give the fans what they want. I think people are going to be impressed with how I fight. People want to see a fight and I know I’m going to bring it. Boxing fans are going to know who Danny Roman is on Jan. 20.''

 

RONALD ELLIS VS. Christopher Brooker, 8 Rondes, Superpesos mitjans

Ellis, de Lynn, Missa., and Brooker, de Filadèlfia, are making their second ShoBox obertures. Like Lopez, they fought Feb. 19, 2016, a Atlantic City. Ellis boxed an entertaining eight-round majority draw in a slugfest with hard-hitting Jerry Odom; Brooker took an eight-round majority decision over previously unbeaten John Magda(11-0) in a match that was originally announced a split draw but was later changed to a majority decision win for Brooker.
This will be Ellis’ second fight since the Odom fight. The 27-year-old Ellis, el germà gran de la perspectiva de pes pesat Rashidi Ellis, outpointed Oscar Riojas across eight rounds on Dec. 10.

 

Ellis feels he’s benefited from going the distance in consecutive contests. “It’s helped me that I’ve gone through it before,"Va dir Ellis, whose 10 knockouts have come inside two rounds (Vuit al primer). "Ara, I know what they’re looking for. This time I’ll finish super strong and put on a show. I need this to further my career and put me in main event fights.

 

“I’ve seen Brooker fight a few times. He’s a tough guy who comes forward and comes to fight, and that is perfect for me. Brooker will be there for me to hit, and it will give me a great opportunity to showcase my talents.’’

 

Com amateur, Ellis upset Terrell Gausha to win the 2010 Guants d'Or Nacionals. Gausha went on to represent the United States at the 2012 Olympic Games and is now an undefeated professional middleweight.

 

Brooker, a physically strong, aggressive-minded boxer-puncher, is trying to regain his winning ways after a nine-fight winning streak ended when he lost by 10º-round TKO to highly regarded Ronald Gavril (16-1) últim Octubre. 8 in Las Vegas. The 25-year-old Brooker dropped Gavril in the fifth round but went down twice in the 10º before it was stopped at 2:04. Entering the 10º i ronda final, the fight was even on the judges’ scorecards.

 

“I’m ready and excited to get back in the ring,’’ said Brooker. “I can’t wait to fight another undefeated fighter on ShoBox. I’m still looking to get to the next level. I was at Ellis’ last fight, and I saw an average fighter compared to the guys I’ve fought. He’s solid, throws nice, short punches but runs out of gas.

 

“In my last fight I lost because I kept looking for the KO. I have a new trainer now (Gaunch Muhammad), and I’m getting back to the technical part of boxing. I’m jabbing more, and in my previous camps I wasn’t jabbing or boxing enough. I have the heart and condition but I have to get to my opponent with the jab.’’

The Philadelphia native was a top level amateur who has been active since turning professional in 2015.

 

KENNETH SIMS JR. VS. WELLINGTON ROMERO – 8 Rondes, Super Lightweights

Sims, de Chicago, is matched with unquestionably the most dangerous opponent of a career that began in March 2014. This will be the eight-round debut for the 23-year-old, who has gone six full rounds six times.

 

“This is the biggest fight of my career,’’ said Sims, who is coming off a six-round decision over Jonathan Dinong últim Novembre. 11. “I will be prepared for anything that I have to do. I’ve seen videos of Romero and I know he is a good fighter. I fought world champions in the amateurs so it’s not a big deal to fight him. I need to take care of business and get my win on national television. It’s as simple as that.”

 

Sims was a main sparring partner for Floyd Mayweather (when he was getting prepared for Andre Berto) i Manny Pacquiao (as he was getting ready for Mayweather). Sims, known for his boxing skills and ability to work the body, era una 2013 U.S. National Amateur Champion and a 2012 Olympic Trials semifinalist.

 

Romero had 268 amateur bouts and represented his native Dominican Republic in the 2012 Jocs Olímpics, where he lost to eventual Gold Medalist Vasyl Lomachenko. Shortly thereafter he relocated to New York, where he turned pro in 2013. The 25-year-old is coming off a first-round knockout over Engleberto Valenzuela al desembre. 10.

 

A slick boxer who can punch and gives opponent issues because of his awkward style and movement, Romero has been brought along carefully against mostly modest opposition. The southpaw is coming off a first-round TKO over Luis Meroles last Dec. 5.

 

Romero understands that this could likely be his most daunting task to date. “I’m looking forward to introducing myself to the American public,'', Va dir. “Sims is a good fighter but I will always like challenges, and this will be my biggest challenge as a pro.’’

 

STEPHON YOUNG VS. DANIEL ROSAS – 8 Rondes, Super Bantamweights

 

Jove, de St. Louis, is making his second ShoBox Començar. In his debut, he boxed a 10-round draw with previously undefeated Nikolai Potapov (14-0) a l'abril de 2016.

 

“To be able to be back on ShoBox feels good,” said Young, who registered a majority 10-round decision over previously once-beaten Juan Lopez Jr. in his last scrap on Sept. 30, 2016. “My first fight on ShoBox was not a fair decision. It was my first 10-rounder and I feel like I won the fight. This time I will be able to show more of what I have.

 

“Training has been great. I already have been in camp for two months. The fight against Potapov was my first with my new coach (Herman Caicedo), and this will be our third fight. We won the NABA title by beating Lopez and now we’re back.”

The 25-year-old Young, que actualment ocupa el número núm. 9 a l'AMB, was an experienced amateur who compiled a record of 86-13 while representing the U.S. in a number of tournaments. In the U.S. Proves Olímpiques a 2011, he lost to the No. 1-rated amateur, Rau'shee Warren.

 

The 27-year-old Rosas, de la Ciutat de Mèxic, is a nine-year veteran who is experienced against top opposition. En 2011, in just his 13º lluita professional, Rosas fought to a 12-round split draw against Josep Cabrera in a bout for the Interim WBO Super Flyweight World Title. En 2014, he lost a close, unanimous decision to Alejandro Hernandezfor the Interim WBO Bantamweight Title.

 

Rosas has rattled off three consecutive victories since fighting Hernandezt. En la seva última baralla el Abril 29, he lost via TKO to current IBF Super Bantamweight ChampJonathan Guzmán en el seu U.S. debut.

CORONA, Califòrnia. (Novembre. 4, 2016) - Tares "The Real Deal Shelestyuk va mantenir un rècord d'imbatibilitat i va continuar el seu ascens a la divisió de pes welter amb un tancat, decisió unànime de 10 rondes sobre el seu oponent més dur fins ara, Jimmy "La Veritat" Herrera a Divendres de esdeveniment principal d'a ShoBox: La Nova Generació triple en viu en TEMPS DE LA FUNCIÓ des de l'exterior Productes Omega Centre d'esdeveniments a Corona, Califòrnia.

 

Shelestyuk (15-0, 9 KOs), la 2012 Medalla de bronze dels Jocs Olímpics per Ucraïna, va ser victoriós pels resultats de 96-93 dues vegades i 95-94. Malgrat un coratge, actuació valenta, Herrera (15-4-1, 8 KOs), de Chicago, Ill., va acabar amb una ratxa de tres victòries consecutives. No hi va haver cap derrota.

 

En brut i caiguda, col·lisió sagnant de pesos creuer invictes a la funció conjunta, esquerrà Constantin Bejenaru (12-0, 4 KOs, 0-1-1 a la Sèrie Mundial de Boxa), de Catskill, N.Y. a través de Moldàvia, va sobreviure a un derrocament i a diversos cops de cap no intencionats per registrar una decisió unànime de 10 rondes sobre Steve Bujaj (16-1-1, 11 KOs), de Nova York.

 

Favorit dels fanàtics locals Manuel “La Tempesta” Méndez (13-1-2, 9 KOs), of Indi, Qualif., va registrar un cop de puny impressionant, 2:32 nocaut a la primera ronda davant invictes anteriorment Vitor Jones Freitas (12-1, 1 ND, 6 KOs), de Salvador, Bahia, Brasil, en un combat programat de vuit rondes que va obrir la retransmissió.

 

Southpaw Shelestyuk, que va entrar al ring va ocupar el número núm. 9 a l'OMB i núm. 13 a l'AMB, va rebutjar una aposta decidida d'Herrera per guanyar tot i haver-se atorgat un punt per una retenció excessiva a la cinquena ronda.

 

"Va ser una baralla dura,'' Shelestyuk. "És un lluitador dur, és lent però ha treballat bé. A la primera ronda, M'ha anat bé, però les cames m'han anat damunt. Crec que va ser perquè no vaig dormir bé.

 

“Després de cinc rondes vaig començar a trobar el meu ritme. Vaig començar a boxejar-lo. Vaig cometre alguns errors allà dins com tirar cap enrere. Aquesta lluita em farà millor. Com vaig dir, era dur però res d'especial. Quan em van anar les cames, Vaig començar a treballar dins. El vaig guanyar bé a l'última ronda i si n'hi havia 30 segons més, Jo podria haver-lo aturat.

 

"Estic desitjant ser més actiu 2017. Em prendré dues o tres setmanes de descans i tornaré de seguida al gimnàs".

 

"La veritat" fa mal i Herrera va tenir més de la seva part justa de moments en una lluita apretada. Herrera, un professional des de desembre 2009, va pensar que era una prova legítima per a Shelestyuk i ho va ser. Però Taras era més actiu (aterratge 169 de 689 cops, comparat amb el d'Herrera 130 de 460). Cada un connectat 28 per cent del temps.

 

Herrera, que havia derrotat a prospectes invictes en quatre dels nou combats anteriors, no estava content amb el veredicte. “Va ser una bona lluita. No hi ha molt que pugui dir. Vaig pensar que estava més a prop del que indicaven les puntuacions. M'he divertit allà dins i li dono crèdit. Ell era tot el que esperava. És un lluitador intel·ligent".

 

"Viuria per ser un maniquí de prova per a tots aquests joves prospectes. Vaig pensar que podria haver estat un empat, però la gent que ho va veure a la televisió pot tenir la seva opinió’’.

 

Fent el seu segon ShoBox Començar, Bejenaru va triomfar pels marcadors de 97-91 a les fitxes dels tres jutges. L'esquerra va baixar d'una neta, counter ganxo esquerre a la barbeta a la cinquena i va empitjorar els cops de cap no intencionats, però semblava superar i lluitar contra un Bujaj reticent durant la major part del camí..

 

Un pes creuer curt amb un pes incòmode, estil herky-jerky Bejenaru va pressionar tot el tema i va ser molt més actiu, tirant més de 100 més cops de puny que Bujaj (454-336) i mitjana 45 cops de puny llançats per ronda en comparació amb 38 per Bujaj.

 

"És un lluitador brut,'', va dir Bejenaru després d'un partit en què va patir un mal tall a l'ull esquerre i una gran llaçada al cap.. "Mireu totes les seves baralles, tot el que fa és conduir amb el cap. Em van afectar els culs del cap, però no hi havia manera de parar. Es queixa molt, però tot el que va fer va ser una falta. Em va semblar com si em mossegués a l'orella esquerra després... així és com lluita.

 

“L'esport és la boxa, no neda i bateja els cops com un nedador, un lluitador de carrer, no un lluitador professional. Em va agafar amb un xut net a la caiguda, però em vaig aixecar i no em vaig fer mal.

 

“Aquesta victòria és un gran pas en la meva carrera. M'ajudarà a continuar pujant al rànquing en el meu camí cap al títol".

 

बुजाज, que estava fent el seu debut amb ShoBox, va quedar lívid després.

 

"L'infern, si, Estic boig,"Ell va dir. “El marcador va ser dolent. Sabia en què m'estava ficant lluitant al seu pati del darrere, però definitivament vaig pensar que havia guanyat. El vaig fer caure. Mai em va fer mal".

 

Mendez, de mentalitat agressiva, va sortir pacientment i va permetre a Freitas llançar la majoria dels primers cops de puny.. El primer cop significatiu de la baralla de Mendez va ser un ganxo esquerre paralitzant al cos que va posar Freitas avall i es va retorçar de dolor..

 

"Em va sorprendre que no prengui bé aquest tir al cos, va dir Méndez, és qui està entrenat Joel Díaz. "Sabia que li vaig fer mal, però vaig pensar que s'aixecava. Vaig veure que no s'estava tapat molt bé, així que vaig saber que finalment en aconseguiria un.”

 

"Estava sorprenentment nerviós en aquesta baralla. Vaig ser una mica tímid per començar. Normalment surto més fort, però no va importar perquè vam aconseguir el resultat que volíem.”

 

"Estic animat per la victòria per eliminatòria. Sé que no va durar gaire, però espero que l'audiència de la televisió hagi gaudit.”

 

Freitas va controlar la major part de la ronda amb el seu moviment i cops de puny més aguts, sinó un ganxo salvatge al cos — la seva tercera connexió amb el cos — va deixar el brasiler a la lona molt després del 10 compte.

 

“m'he equivocat,", va dir un Jones Freitas plorós. "Vaig fer una pausa en el moment equivocat i em va colpejar amb el cop correcte. Això no vol dir res per a mi. Seguiré treballant i entrenant molt. Vull una revenja.”
