Ang mga tiket alang sa live event, nga gipasiugdahan sa Canelo Promotions ug TGB Promotions, anaa pinaagi sa AXS.com.

“Kining tulo ka mga panagsangka naghatod sa tanang malaumon sa mga boxing fans sa usa ka pay-per-view undercard ug takus sa makasaysayanong main event nga panagsangka nga ilang dad-on.,”Ingon ni Tom Brown, Presidente sa TGB Promotions. "Ang matag manggugubat nga mosaka sa ring adunay higayon nga i-catapult ang ilang kaugalingon sa tumoy sa ilang tagsatagsa ka dibisyon nga adunay kadaugan sa Septyembre 30. Ang mga fans makadahom nga makita ang tanan niining mga kakompetensya nga mohatag sa tanan nilang naa aron mogawas nga madaogon sa SHOWTIME PPV sa T-Mobile Arena sa Las Vegas.

Usa ka kusgan nga southpaw nga sa 22 wala pa makaduol sa pag-igo sa iyang kisame isip usa ka manlalaban, Ramos (20-0, 16 KOs) gipildi ang wala’y pilde nga si Joey Spencer kaniadtong Marso, gihulog siya sa una nga hugna sa wala pa siya gipahunong sa ikapitong hugna aron makuha ang TKO sa iyang makapakurat 2023 debut sa undercard ni David Benavidez vs. Caleb Plant sa SHOWTIME PPV. Lumad nga taga Casa Grande, Ariz., Si Ramos usab nanag-iya sa back-to-back 10-round unanimous decisions batok nila ni Brian Mendoza ug Javier Molina sa 2021, nga iyang gisundan pinaagi sa pagpildi nila Luke Santamaria ug Vladimir Hernandez sa 2022. Kinatibuk-an, ang batan-on nga si Ramos nakaangkon og pag-ila sa highlight-reel KOs, paghunong sa pito sa iyang katapusan 10 kaaway, nagpakita sa iyang mga kahanas ug abilidad sa pagtapos sa iyang mga away sayo.

“Naghinam-hinam ko nga mahimong bahin niining dako nga kard batok sa usa ka lisud nga kontra sa Septyembre 30, ”ingon ni Ramos.. "Nahibal-an ko nga si Lubin nagbansay og maayo ug moabut aron modaog, nga maghimo alang sa usa ka makalingaw nga away. Kini nga tibuuk nga kard na-stack ug dili namon gusto nga mahigawad, busa ang mga fans naa sa usa ka nindot nga gabii sa boksing.”

Ang 27-anyos nga si Lubin (25-2, 18 KOs) mibalik sa ring niadtong Hunyo aron paghatag og impresibong fifth-round nga pagpahunong sa beteranong si Luis Arias, nga wala pa mahunong kaniadto. Ang miaging outing ni Lubin nakakita kaniya nga nakig-away sa usa sa labing maayo nga mga away sa 2022, samtang nakigbaylo siya og knockdowns sa kaubang contender nga si Sebastian Fundora sa SHOWTIME niadtong Abril 2022. Pag-adto sa Fundora fight, Si Lubin nakahimo og usa ka impresibong unom ka sunodsunod nga kadaugan sukad sa kapildihan ngadto sa unified ug karon dili malalis nga 154-pound champion Jermell Charlo sa 2017, usa ka dagan nga naglakip sa mga kadaugan batok kang Jeison Rosario, Terrell Gausha ug Ishe Smith. Lumad nga taga Orlando, Fla., Si Lubin nahimong pro sa 18 mga tuig sa 2013 ug nahimong usa sa pinakabata nga palaaboton nga nagpakita sa serye sa pag-uswagSHOBOX: Ang Bag-ong Henerasyon®,nakakuha og “Prospect Of The Year” nga pasidungog gikan sa ESPN ug Ring Magazine sa 2016.

"Nahibal-an ko nga ang kalibutan magtan-aw sa Septyembre 30 ug nagplano ko nga modaog sa dako nga paagi,” ni Lubin. "Kami adunay usa ka batan-on ug talento nga manggugubat sa among atubangan, pero bata pa ko ug talented sab. Ang kalainan mao nga nakig-away ako sa cream of the crop sa 154-pound division. Dili igsapayan kung kini mga Olympians, nanguna nga mga palaaboton, contenders o kampeon, Gikuha nako sila. Ako adunay usa ka dako nga chip sa akong abaga ug ako nasayud nga uban niini nga kadaugan, Maapil ko sa usa ka mega fight. Nagbansay ako pag-ayo ug ang tibuuk kalibutan makakita nga kini mabayran. ”

Ugas (27-5, 12 KOs) mobalik sa aksyon sa Septyembre 30 sa unang higayon sukad niadtong Abril 2022 unification bout pildihon ni Errol Spence Jr. sa SHOWTIME PPV. Gitukod niya ang iyang kaugalingon isip usa ka elite welterweight human mibalik gikan sa kapin sa duha ka tuig nga pagtangtang sa trabaho 2016 pagsunod sa sunod-sunod nga mga kapildihan sa 2014. Gisumbag niya ang iyang tiket isip world champion niadtong Enero 2021 human makadaog og WBA belt pinaagi sa pagpildi kang Abel Ramos niadtong Septiyembre 2020. Iyang gipalig-on ang iyang world-championship status niadtong Agosto 2021, sa dihang iyang gisakyan ang usa ka naangol nga Spence aron pildihon ang maalamat nga umaabot nga Hall of Famer nga si Manny Pacquiao pinaagi sa unanimous decision. Gikan sa Santiago, Cuba ug karon nagpuyo sa Miami, Florida, ang Olympic bronze medalist nagbansay sa Las Vegas uban sa inila nga coach nga si Ismael Salas ug nanag-iya og mga kadaugan batok sa wala pay pildi nga mga manggugubat nga si Jamal James, Omar Figueroa Jr. ug Bryant Perrella, plus beteranong contenders Thomas Dulorme ug Ray Robinson.

"Ako ug si Mario Barrios adunay daghan nga makuha sa usa ka kadaugan sa Septyembre 30, mao nga nahibal-an nako nga kini nga away usa nga mahinumduman,“miingon si Ugas. “Dako kaayo kog respeto kang Barrios. Siya usa ka tinuod nga manggugubat nga naa sa ring kauban ang labing kaayo nila, pero naa koy pagsalig nga madaog ko. Daghan pa kog away nga nahabilin ug ang akong labing maayo nga kahanas ipakita sa kini nga away. Yutang Natawhan ug Kinabuhi, Ako nakig-away alang sa akong katawhan.”

Ang 28-anyos nga si Barrios (27-2, 18 KOs) ang labing bag-o nga nakapuntos og usa ka makabungog nga knockout ni Jovanie Santiago niadtong Pebrero nga nagpahunong kang Santiago sa ikawalong hugna. Ang miaging away ni Barrios mao ang iyang welterweight debut sa dihang iyang gihulog ang usa ka lisud nga away nga desisyon ngadto sa kanhi unified champion nga si Keith Thurman niadtong Pebrero 2022. Ang San Antonio-produkto, kinsa karon nagbansay uban sa top coach nga si Bob Santos sa Las Vegas, nahimong 140-pound world champion niadtong Septiyembre 2019, gigamit ang iyang agresibo nga istilo aron mapildi si Batyr Akhmedov ug makakuha usa ka unanimous nga desisyon. Napildi ni Barrios ang super lightweight nga titulo sa laing aksyon nga puno, kaayo nga kompetisyon, kay gipildi siya ni three-division ug five-time world champion Gervonta Davis niadtong Hunyo 2021.

"Kini nga away mahimong usa ka gubat, kay mag away ming duha with a lot of heart and never mi ni atras,”Ni Barrios. "Dili ko makahulat nga makigkompetensya sa usa ka matchup nga sama niini sa usa sa pinakadako nga kard sa tuig. Kini usa ka maayong gabii sa boksing gikan sa pagsugod hangtod sa katapusan ug ang mga tagahanga sa Mexico makapaabut nga makakita usa ka eksplosibo nga pasundayag gikan sa 'El Azteca'!"

Nakig-away gikan sa Phoenix, Arizona, Garcia (15-0, 12 KOs) mao ang usa sa 2023 pinakadako nga breakout nga mga bitoon. Siya mibuto ngadto sa talan-awon sa Marso pinaagi sa pagbuto sa kanhi walay pildi nga Amilcar Vidal sa ikaupat nga-round aron ipahibalo ang iyang presensya sa 160 ka libra.. Gisundan sa 20-anyos ang maong pasundayag pinaagi sa pagdominar sa beteranong si Kevin Salgado paingon sa unanimous decision niadtong Abril sa SHOWTIME PPV undercard sa Gervonta Davis vs.. Ryan Garcia. Ang precocious nga Garcia paspas nga milihok sukad nga nahimong pro in 2020 ug na-knockout ang unom sa katapusan niyang walo ka mga kontra.

"Kini ang akong ikaduhang away karong tuiga sa usa ka dako nga pay-per-view nga kard ug ako naghinam-hinam ug labi pa nga andam kaysa sa una nga higayon.,” ni Garcia. “Si Reséndiz usa ka gutom nga manggugubat sama sa akong kaugalingon, mao nga wala ako magduhaduha nga magbutang kami usa ka impyerno nga pasundayag alang sa tanan nga mga fans nga nagtan-aw.

Ang 24-anyos nga si Reséndiz(14-1, 10 KOs) nakaangkon og career-best nga kadaugan sa iyang kataposang outing dihang iyang gipaundang ang kanhi unified champion nga si Jarrett Hurd sa 10th ug final round sa ilang March showdown sa SHOWTIME. Nanguna si Reséndiz sa tanang tulo ka baraha dihang nahunong ang sangka tungod sa grabeng samad sa ngabil ni Hurd. Lumad nga taga Nayarit, Mexico, nakig-away na siya karon gikan sa Los Angeles ug nagtinguha nga mahimo kini nga tulo ka sunod-sunod nga kadaugan sukad sa usa ka suod nga desisyon nga kapildihan ni Marcos Hernandez kaniadtong Septyembre 2021. Si Reséndiz nahimong pro niadtong Pebrero 2018 ug nakahimo og malampuson nga U.S. debut sa Abril 2021 uban sa desisyon nga kadaugan batok kang Quilisto Wood.

"Nalipay kaayo ko nga adunay kini nga maayong oportunidad nga makigkompetensya sa usa ka hinungdanon nga kard sa away,” ni Reséndiz. “Nalipay ko nga matuman ang akong damgo nga makig-away sa Las Vegas, pareha sa akong mga boxing idol nga akong gitan-aw sa TV. Ako adunay usa ka talagsaon nga kampo sa pagbansay nga makatabang kanako nga tan-awon ang akong labing maayo sa Septyembre 30 ug paghimo og usa ka pasundayag nga takus sa mga alamat sa boksing nga nagdasig kanako.

PT and will see undefeated rising star and Capitol Heights, Maryland-nativeGary Antuanne Russellpagkuha sa mga kauban sa walay pildengKent Cruzin the 10-round super lightweight co-main event, plus sensational top prospect and Landover, Maryland-nativeTravon Marshallduels unbeaten two-time OlympianGabriel Maestrein the 10-round welterweight telecast opener.

Ang mga tiket alang sa live event, nga gipasiugdahan sa TGB Promotions, are on sale now and can be purchased throughwww.mgmnationalharbor.com/.

“This show on August 12 is jam-packed with action for boxing fans as they will get an exciting world title clash in addition to some of the area’s top rising talent in tough contests live on SHOWTIME,”Ingon ni Tom Brown, Presidente sa TGB Promotions. “Emmanuel Rodriguez is hungry to make a second run as world champion at bantamweight and will be given all he can handle by the red-hot Melvin Lopez. With two of Maryland’s top rising stars in Gary Antuanne Russell and Travon Marshall stepping in for separate bouts before that showdown, this lines up to be a can’t-miss card at MGM National Harbor.”

Fighting out of Manati, Puerto Rico, Rodríguez(21-2, 13 KOs) defeated the previously unbeaten Gary Antonio Russell last October by technical decision to put himself back into position to fight for the world title. The 30-year-old originally won the IBF Bantamweight World Title with a unanimous decision victory over Paul Butler in 2018 and successfully defended it against the then-unbeaten Jason Moloney. Rodríguez went on to lose the title to former undisputed champion Naoya Inoue in their May 2019 title bout.

“I’m happy to have this chance to become a world champion again,” said Rodriguez. “We’re gonna go out there to win in spectacular fashion and my goal is to show that I’m the best fighter in the world at 118-pounds. My goal is to become undisputed at bantamweight, however I’m not overlooking Melvin Lopez, because he’s a good fighter and will come to give it his all on August 12.”

The 25-year-old Lopez (29-1, 19 KOs) has won eight-straight fights since suffering his only career loss in October 2019. Originally from Nicaragua and now fighting out of Miami, Lopez has fought professionally since 2015 and began competing stateside in 2018. Lopez scored three victories in 2022, starting the year with knockouts of Juan Gabriel Medina and Victor Ruiz, before most recently defeating Jobert Alvarez last December. Out of his last 10 mga kadaugan, Lopez has ended nine of those inside of the distance.

“I’m very excited that the time is almost here to fight for a world title,"Miingon Lopez. “We’ve had a great training camp and everyone has sacrificed and worked hard so that we’re at our best on August 12. I’m going to show everyone why I earned this opportunity and repay my team for all of their efforts. I have a lot of respect for Emmanuel, but the best man will have his hand raised when we share the ring.”


Fighting out of his native Capitol Heights, Md., Russell (16-0, 16 KOs) will carry on the legacy left by his late father Gary Sr. A member of one of the sport’s preeminent fighting families, Russell trains alongside his older brothers, former WBC Featherweight Champion Gary Jr. and bantamweight contender Gary Antonio. The 26-year-old has yet to allow an opponent to make it to the final bell since turning pro in 2017 following his run representing the U.S. at the Rio 2016 Summer Olympics. Russell defeated his most accomplished foes to date in 2022, stopping former champion Viktor Postol in February before a TKO win against former two-division champion Rances Barthelemy in July.

“When you’re a student of the game like me, you have to consider that each step we take is about more than self-gratification. We’re doing this for keeps,” said Russell. “Kent Cruz has to catch up to me, but there’s no need for me to look back. The only direction I’m going is forward and that means putting on a spectacular performance on August 12, and proving I’m the next world champion in this division.”

The 30-year-old Cruz (16-0-3, 10 KOs) steps back into the ring after a pair of draws against fellow unbeaten Enriko Gogokhia in February and then November 2022. A native of St. Louis, Mo., Cruz defeated veterans Erik Humberto Castillo and Travis Hartman following a draw against Carlos Mohamed Rodriguez in April 2018. Cruz will pick up his past ring history with the Russell family on August 12, looking to avenge an amateur loss to Gary Allan Russell, Gary Antuanne’s older brother.

“I’m very excited for this fight on August 12,” said Cruz. “I’ve been waiting for a fight like this my whole career, so we didn’t hesitate when offered this one. I’m coming in as the underdog and that’s what’s fueling me. I’ve been an underdog my whole life and on August 12 I’m gonna shock the world. When I win this fight, I’ll be in contention to fight for a world title and have my chance to achieve my childhood dream.”

At just 22-years-old, Marshall (8-0, 7 KOs) has quickly shown the skill, power and poise to become a highly regarded prospect in just eight fights. Born in Landover, Md., and now fighting out of Capitol Heights, Md., Marshall is trained by former contender Andrew Council and has already scored two stoppages in 2023. Most recently he dominated veteran contender Justin DeLoach via third-round knockout in March, his most impressive victory to date.

“I’m really excited to be fighting at home in front of my family, friends and fans on August 12,” said Marshall. “I’m working hard every day in the gym so that when fight night comes I’m 100% and ready to put on a great performance for everyone watching. My goal is to show everyone that I belong on the big stage, and that starts with a victory over Gabriel Maestre.”

A two-time Olympian for his home country of Venezuela, Maestre (5-0-1, 4 KOs) had an extensive amateur run that included victories over Brian Castano, Carlos Adames, Alexander Besputin, Oscar Molina and Brian Ceballo. The 36-year-old made his U.S. debut with a controversial decision victory over Mykal Fox in August 2021 before fighting fellow unbeaten Taras Shelestyuk to a draw last March. Labing bag-o lang, Maestre defeated former two-division champion Devon Alexander after three rounds in April.

“I’m very ready for this fight against Travon Marshall,” said Maestre. “We are focused on the work that we need to put in so that we are victorious on August 12. I’m focused on having my hand raised and putting on a good show. We want to leave a good impression with the fans and move on to fight the big names in the welterweight division.”

LAS VEGAS (Marso 18, 2022) - MINGSAAD ang wala'y pildeng pagsubang sa bituon Tim Tszyu held a media workout in Las Vegas Thursday as he nears his much anticipated U.S. debut against U.S. Olympian Terrell Gausha nahitabo sa Sabado, Marso 26 live on SHOWTIME in a Premier Boxing Champions event from The Armory in Minneapolis.

The son of Hall of Famer Kostya, Tszyu arrived stateside last Saturday from his native Australia to finish training camp in Las Vegas before heading to Minneapolis. After amassing a 20-0 rekord sa 15 knockouts, Tszyu looks to move himself one step closer to a title shot with an emphatic victory on March 26.

Ang mga tiket alang sa maong kalihokan, nga gipasiugdahan sa TGB Promotions, No Limit Boxing and Warriors Boxing, are on sale now and can be purchased at the Armory at http://ArmoryMN.com/ and through Ticketmaster.

Here is what Tszyu and his trainer, Igor Goloubev, had to say Thursday from Left Right Boxing Gym in Las Vegas:

TIM TSZYU

“We’ve done a few camps here in Las Vegas before so we’re familiar with the terrain out here. It’s not too far to then go to Minneapolis, but it’s a lot warmer here is Las Vegas, so I’m glad I came here first. Adjusting to the time difference was tough at first but I’ve definitely recovered. By the time I arrived in Las Vegas, it was just about sharpening everything up.

“I’m coming to fight and I’m coming to win. I’m not here to ‘tip-tap’. If that means going for the knockout, I’ll go for it right away. I’m not here to out-jab someone and win on the scorecards. From the first second when the fight starts, my objective is to take him out. Every second of every round, I’m going to be in front of my opponent’s face.

“This has been a long time in the making. I’ve been keen on making my debut here ever since I beat Jeff Horn [August 2020]. It’s good to finally be here and I’m quite excited to be on this platform. This is a real opportunity for me.

“My dad hasn’t talked to me too much about what to expect fighting in the U.S. Mostly he just reminds me to stay ready, which I always am. I’m a professional and I’m fighting nonstop. I don’t take rests or honeymoons like some of these other fighters.

“It’s a big deal for me to be in this position headlining on SHOWTIME. You dream of it as a kid, and now for it to actually be happening, it’s unreal. I’m the first Australian who’s had their U.S. debut as a headline act, having not even won a world title yet. It shows that what we’ve done so far is pretty good for the moment. We’re here to make statements.

“This is going to be an interesting fight. I’m quite interested to see what he’s going to bring. Gausha has the tools to win. He’s got great skills and quick hands and a good variety of punches. He does the simple things very well. I like those types of styles. I’ve sparred guys like that in the U.S. and it’s a fun style to fight against.

“I don’t look particularly big or strong, but when I get in the ring, I give off that dominance that says ‘this is my ring. This is what I do and you’re coming onto my stage’. I present that dominance straight away and let everyone know.

Tszyu on the Jermell Charlo vs. Brian Castaño 154-pound title rematch taking place May 14 on SHOWTIME”

“Charlo is a cautious fighter with power in both hands. He wobbled Castaño a few times. Charlo waits to land that perfect shot and that’s why Castano’s output wasn’t too high in that fight. I thought Castaño fought a great fight and out worked him. Charlo didn’t know what to do at times. I think it’s either going to be Castaño by decision or Charlo by knockout in the rematch.

“I’m coming for everyone in the division. I’m coming for the belts. You have to have confidence in yourself. I believe that I defeat either Charlo or Castaño. I wouldn’t be in the sport if I didn’t believe that. I’d take those guys to places they’ve never been and that’s all that matters to me.”

IGOR GOLOUBEV, Tszyu’s Trainer

“Tim is going to make adjustments, like he always does, based off what Gausha brings in the first round. Tim is an absolute pressure fighter. He’s going to be right on top of Gausha from the start. There’s going to be no rest and nowhere for him to go. This is going to be fought on the inside.

“Gausha is a crafty fighter. He’s got a good style from his amateur background and he’s also got strong legs and upper body. We’ve seen footage of him and we know that he can punch, that he’ll move and that he throws lots of jabs. He’s all-around a very good fighter.”

TERRELL GAUSHA: “WE’RE GOING TO GIVE TIM TSZYU A DIFFERENT LOOK THAN HE’S EVER SEEN BEFORE”

Leave sa usa ka comment

Super Welterweight Contender Gausha Faces Unbeaten Rising Star Tim Tszyu in SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING®

Main Hitabo Sabado, Marso 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, Marso 26 nagpuyo sa 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. Nga nga miingon, 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. Karon, 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. Karon, 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.”

ARLINGTON, T.X. – Marso 17, 2022 - Three sensational matchups have been added to the SHOWTIME PPV lineup headlined by WBC and IBF world champion Errol “The Truth” Spence Jr. and WBA World Champion Yordenis Ugas squaring off in a welterweight title unification clash on Saturday, Abril 16 live from AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas in a Premier Boxing Champions event.

The pay-per-view telecast begins at 9 sa gabii. ET / 6 hapon. PT and features exciting lightweight contender Isaac “Pitbull” Cruz taking on veteran former world champion Yuriorkis Gamboa in the 10-round co-main event.

The lineup also includes unbeaten Jose Valenzuela nakigbatok sa kanhi world champion Francisco "El bandidong" Vargas in a 10-round lightweight fight, plus unbeaten Cody Crowley faces veteran contender Josesito Lopez in a 10-round duel of all-action welterweights that kicks off the telecast.

Ang mga tiket alang sa live event, which is promoted by TGB Promotions and Man Down Promotions, are on sale now and can be purchased at SeatGeek.com, the Official Ticketing Provider of AT&T Stadium.

“One of the year’s biggest events will feature a deserving pay-per-view undercard lineup loaded with consequential matchups that are primed to deliver drama and action,”Ingon ni Tom Brown, Presidente sa TGB Promotions. “Isaac Cruz showed against Gervonta Davis that he is a star in the making, and he’ll be looking to display those talents once again against an accomplished opponent in Yuriorkis Gamboa. More, another rising star in Jose Valenzuela will step up in competition against former champion Francisco Vargas, while Cody Crowley and Josesito Lopez will both bring their high-octane styles into the ring in what shapes up to be a ‘can’t-miss’ showdown to open the loaded SHOWTIME PPV.”

The 23-year-old Cruz (22-2-1, 15 KOs) will return to the ring after dropping a competitive decision against three-division champion Gervonta Davis on SHOWTIME PPV in December. A native of Mexico City, Cruz shot up the lightweight rankings in 2020, announcing his presence with an electrifying first-round knockout over veteran Diego Magdaleno in October. Cruz followed that up in 2021 by winning a unanimous decision over previously unbeaten Matías Romero in March and by defeating former champion Francisco Vargas by decision in June. After making his U.S. debut sa Disyembre 2019, Cruz went unbeaten in his next four bouts, appearing on SHOWTIME® three times in addition to beating Magdaleno on the Davis vs. Leo Santa Cruz SHOWTIME PPV undercard.

“I can’t wait to be back in the ring and to fight at AT&T Stadium,"Miingon Cruz. “I love the fans in Texas, they always give me tremendous support. Akong promoter, Manny Pacquiao, has fought at AT&T Stadium before and won both times. I’m excited to follow in his footsteps against a very accomplished former champion in Gamboa. I’m coming to show the fans why I’m one of the best lightweights in the world and to drive Gamboa into retirement on April 16.”

Gamboa (30-4, 18 KOs) is a former unified featherweight champion, holding the IBF and WBA 126-pound titles between 2009 ug 2011. A native of Guantanamo, Cuba, he now lives and trains in Miami, Fla. He dropped a showdown against Terence Crawford in a 2014 Fight sa Tuig, before rebounding to win seven of eight fights. That run included victories over former world champions Jason Sosa and Roman Martinez, putting Gamboa back into world title contention. In his last two fights, Gamboa has dropped contests against current lightweight world champions, losing via 12th-round TKO to Gervonta Davis in 2019 and by decision against Devin Haney in November 2020.

“I always come to the ring to display my talents and April 16 nga walay lain-laing mga,”Ingon ni Gamboa. “It’s very motivating to be facing a young, strong opponent like Isaac Cruz. I’m going to test him and see if he can stand up to my power. I’m coming to win and make a big statement that I still have what it takes to become champion again.”

The 22-year-old Valenzuela (11-0, 7 KOs) now trains as a stablemate of unbeaten two-time world champion David Benavidez as he seeks to move from prospect to contender in 2022. Born in Los Mochis, Sinaloa, Mexico, Valenzuela turned pro in 2018 and rode a five-bout knockout streak before earning his first 10-round decision in a victory over Deiner Berrio in September 2021. Valenzuela capped off his breakout 2021 sa Disyembre, dominating Austin Dulay on his way to a TKO in round four.

“It’s a dream come true to be on a high-stakes, stacked card like this,” said Valenzuela. “I’ve admired and studied Spence for a long time, especially because we’re both lefties. I can’t wait to get in the ring. I’m not overlooking or underestimating Francisco Vargas in any way. I’m expecting fireworks. You always get a big fight when two Mexican warriors go head-to-head, so I know the fans are going to be delighted with what they see on April 16.”

Fighting out of Mexico City, Vargas (27-3-2, 19 KOs) won a 130-pound title in 2015 by defeating Takashi Miura in one of the year’s best fights. The 37-year-old would go on to fight Orlando Salido to an action-packed draw before losing his title to Miguel Berchelt in another memorable affair. Vargas later defeated Stephen Smith and Rod Salka before losing in his rematch with Berchelt in 2019. Labing bag-o lang, Vargas began campaigning at lightweight, scoring back-to-back victories over Ezequiel Aviles in 2019 and Otto Gamez in 2020, prior to dropping a decision against Isaac Cruz in his last fight in June 2021.

“It is an honor to be on such a big card with so many great fighters,” said Vargas. “I’m going to come prepared for this fight and ready to leave the ring with a victory. I know Valenzuela will be trying to make a statement, but I’m coming to do the same. Sama sa kanunay nga, the fans can expect a tremendous fight from start to finish.”

Representing his native Ontario, Canada, Crowley (20-0, 9 KOs) returns to the ring after a sensational SHOWTIME debut in December 2021 that saw him beat the previously unbeaten Kudratillo Abdukakhorov by unanimous decision. Crowley had previously defeated Josh Torres in September 2020 following a 2019 run that saw him win a Canadian super welterweight title with a 12-round decision over Stuart McLellan in February before successfully defending that title with a dominant decision over Mian Hussain in October. The 28-year-old returned to fight in the U.S. for his last two fights after seven of his first eight pro fights took place in the U.S.

“After my win in December on SHOWTIME, I’m ready to accept the next challenge on my journey to becoming welterweight champion of the world,” said Crowley. “Josesito Lopez is always tough and he brings an exciting style to the table. Unfortunately for him, he will discover what 20 fighters before him have learned, which is that I will not be stopped from achieving my destiny. I want to thank my team for this opportunity to display my skills, heart and relentlessness on this great card at the home of the Dallas Cowboys.”

Lopez (38-8, 21 KOs) earned the nickname “The Riverside Rocky’’ because of his go-for-broke style in the ring. He has stepped in across from some of the top boxers in the sport, including champions Canelo Alvarez, Marcos Maidana, Andre Berto and Victor Ortiz. The 37-year-old from Riverside, California is always a tough out in the ring as noted by his narrow majority decision loss to then-champion Keith Thurman in 2019. Since that loss, Lopez has put together back-to-back victories, defeating John Molina, Jr. and Francisco Santana.

“I’m eager and very motivated to step back in the ring and prove myself as one of the best fighters in the world,"Miingon Lopez. “I expect a stiff challenge from Crowley and the fans can expect to see me at my very best. I’m in great shape and ready to put everything on the line. You will definitely want to make sure you don’t miss my fight on April 16.”

ARDREAL HOLMES SURVIVES TOUGH TEST IN UNANIMOUS DECISION WIN OVER VERNON BROWN IN MAIN EVENT OF SHOBOX: ANG BAG-ONG HENERASYON

Leave sa usa ka comment

Edwin De Los Santos Scores Devastating Second-Round Knockout Over Former Unbeaten Luis Acosta; Giovanni Marquez Shines in his Pro Debut in Telecast Opener on SHOWTIME®

I-klikHERE alang sa mga Litrato sa Amanda Westcott / Showtime

DEADWOOD, S.D. – March 11, 2022 - Ardreal “Bossman” Holmesfought through injury and survived a tough test in his return to the ring for the first time in 28 months scoring a unanimous 10-round decision overVernon “Sub Zero” Brown sa main event saSHOBOX: Ang Bag-ong Henerasyon as part of an action-packed tripleheader onShowtime Friday night at the Deadwood Mountain Grand in Deadwood, S.D.

(Full-fight highlights, clickHERE)

Ang Flint, Mich., middleweight prospect Holmes (12-0, 5 KOs) remained undefeated fighting past the eighth round for the first time in his career even while hurting his left hand sometime in the second round during a flurry of punches. Ang iskor sa mga 98-92, 97-93, 96-94 as Holmes seemed to get his second wind as the fight progressed over Chicago’s Brown (13-2, 9 KOs).

(Holmes scores unanimous decision, clickHERE)

“I was reborn tonight,” Holmes said. “This performance showed that I still have it in me. I hurt my left hand in the second round. I couldn’t punch how I wanted to. I was in a bunch of pain but I pulled through. Thinking about my family pushed me through the pain.”

The 27-year-old southpaw Holmes had a 194-129 edge in total punches while landing more than 40 porsyento sa iyang gahum kinumo. A total of 280 of the combined 323 total punches landed were power punches.

"Siya mao ang mas maayo nga tawo karong gabii,” Brown said. “I give it up to him. He studied me. He knew the punches I was going to throw. His corner kept yelling, ‘Watch the right hook.’ He did knock the wind out of me a couple times with body shots. I had to take a second to recover. In the last round, he was catching me with head shots.

“I need to work on my left hand. I need to be like Manny Pacquiao and work on my left hand because guys know I have power in my right hook. But I’m going down to 147. That’s my true weight.”

Holmes said no matter how much Brown hurt him, he was going to push through the pain. “I was rusty. I believe I need another fight to get the rust off. My timing wasn’t there. I’ve been off for like 800 adlaw, but this fight showed that I have a lot of heart. I want Paul Kroll next. He was talking a lot of junk against me. We have a history in the amateurs. He’s who I want.”

Sa co-main event, heavy-hitting lightweightEdwin De Los Santos (14-1, 13 KOs) scored a devastating second-round knockout againstLuis Acosta (12-1, 11 KOs), who suffered the first loss of his career.Acosta became the 211th fighter to have his undefeated streak snapped in the 21-year history of the prospect series.

“One-hitter quitter for De Los Santos!"SHOBOX analistaBrian Campbellsaid of De Los Santos’ clean left cross that sent Acosta to the canvas as referee Mark Nelson signaled the end of the fight at 48 seconds in the second round.

“It was a left hand that was just a thing of beauty,” said International Boxing Hall of Famer andSHOBOXblow-by-blow announcerBarry Tompkins.

Dominican Republic’s De Los Santos landed 19 punches before scoring the fight-ending knockout in his secondSHOBOX appearance.

"Ako balik,” said De Los Santos, who suffered a loss in his first SHOBOX appearance in January to William Foster III. “Everyone was counting me out after the last fight. They thought I was done after the loss to Foster. But I’m back. This is the kind of statement that I should have made last time. This is a new beginning for me. I thought I was going to catch him later in the fight but the opening came early with the straight left. My preparation was just better this time, I was just more focused and better prepared and this was the result. I’m ready for anyone.”

Sa telecast opener, highly regarded prospectGiovanni Márquez (1-0) became the seventh fighter in the history ofSHOBOXto make his professional debut on the series, extending the streak to 7-0 in those bouts as Marquez scored a four-round unanimous decision over a gameNelson Morales. Ang iskor sa mga 40-36, ug 39-37 twice in the welterweight bout.

(Marquez scores unanimous decision, clickHERE)

“I felt great,” said Marquez. “I hurt my left hand in the second round on a jab. I think I would have been able to stop him if I hadn’t hurt my hand.”

With his father and trainer, kanhi world championRaul Marquez, barking instructions from his corner, Houston’s Márquez – the 2021 national Golden Gloves 152-pound champion – dominated the welterweight affair, displaying his offensive skills and using his jab and uppercut effectively as the quicker and busier fighter. Marquez landed 30 porsyento sa iyang kinatibuk-ang kumo (85 alang sa 280) compared to Morales at 21 porsyento (42 sa 201).

“All the attention, it’s really not normal for a 21-year-old,” said the elder Marquez, as he joined Tompkins and Campbell in the booth before the main event. “He handled all the pressure. I’m really proud of my son. I’m very satisfied.”

Added Giovanni: “It was a great experience. He was a tough, durable guy, but I feel like I handled everything, the cameras, all the attention pretty well. I started a little slow but after the first round I settled down and fought my fight. I felt fine without the headgear. We kept bumping heads, but he never hurt me. There was a lot of pressure on me, and I was a little nervous in the leadup to the fight, but once I got into the fight I relaxed and I felt comfortable. Kinatibuk-an, it was a great experience.”

Following a competitive first round, the 21-year-old Marquez dominated the second round, his confidence surging with every second that passed against the Dominican-born Morlaes.

“I think I did OK,” said the 30-year-old Dominican Republic-born Morales (2-1) now living in Scranton, Pa. “My strategy was to go in and box. He cut the ring off and applied good pressure. I can’t say too much because it wasn’t the best of me. He was OK. I’ll be back.”

The six other fighters’ victorious in theirSHOBOX pro debut include Dominic Breazeale, Marcus Browne, Terrell Gausha, Errol Spence Jr., Rau’Shee Warren and Gary Russell, Jr.

International Boxing Hall of Famer Tompkins called the action from ringside alongside former world champion Marquez and renowned combat sports authority Campbell serving as expert analysts. Hall of FamerSteve Farhood was the unofficial scorer. Ang executive producer mao angGordon Hall uban saRichard Gaughan sa paghimo ug saRick Phillips magiyahon nga.

The event was promoted by Holden Productions. AngSHOBOX tripleheader will re-air on Tuesday at 10 sa gabii. ET/PT on SHOWTIME EXTREME®.

The son of former unified champion Kostya, Tim Tszyu (20-0, 15 KOs) has quickly made a name for himself as one of the most promising contenders at 154-pounds. Tszyu headlines on SHOWTIME following in his father’s footsteps after Kostya competed 10 times on the network, including memorable knockouts of Julio Cesar Chavez Sr. and Zab Judah. Fighting out of his native Sydney, Australia, Tszyu will make his U.S. debut on March 26 after earning his first 20 pro wins in his home country. The 27-year-old went the 12-round distance for the first time in his last fight, dominating Takeshi Inoue on his way to a unanimous decision in November 2021. The decision victory came after Tszyu had put together stoppage wins in eight of his previous ten outings.

“I’m very excited to be fighting in the U.S., ilabi na sa Showtime, where my dad was featured for most of his career,” said Tszyu. “I’m proud and excited to continue on the Tszyu name with SHOWTIME. Once I take care of Gausha, I will be coming for the title.”

Usa ka sakop sa 2012 U.S. Olympic team, Gausha (22-2-1, 11 KOs) was born in Cleveland, Ohio but now fights out of Encino, Calif., where he is trained by Manny Robles and Prenice Brewer. The 34-year-old has faced tough competition throughout his career, having fought former champion Austin Trout to a draw in 2019 in addition to decision losses against former champion Erislandy Lara and top contender Erickson Lubin. Gausha showed improved power in his most recent bout, stopping rising contender Jamontay Clark in two rounds in March 2021.

“I’ve been ready for this fight for a long time,” said Gausha. “I came into this game to be a world champion and fight the best. I expect Tim to come in great shape and I’ll also come in my best shape to put on a great fight for the fans. My coaches are getting me prepared perfectly for the kind of fight I need to put on so that I can leave the ring victorious.”

Natawo sa Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic and now fighting out of Miami, Fla. Rivera (22-0, 14 KOs) burst onto the scene in 2019, making his U.S. debut with a victory over Rene Tellez Giron on SHOBOX: ANG BAG-ONG HENERASYON®. The 23-year-old continued his ascent in 2020, adding a stoppage win against Fidel Maldonado Jr. and a unanimous decision triumph against lightweight contender LaDarius Miller. Rivera carried his dominance into 2021 with three more victories, including a stoppage of Anthony Mercado in February before delivering a highlight-reel knockout of Jon Fernandez in July on SHOWTIME. He most recently scored a shutout unanimous decision over Matias Romero in October.

“This is a great opportunity for me to display my talents once again against a high-quality opponent in Joseph Adorno,"Miingon Rivera. “I’m ready to take on anyone willing to challenge me until my time comes to fight for the world title. My goal is to be victorious on March 26 and then face Gervonta Davis for his title. With each fight I’m getting closer to reaching that goal. I can’t wait to show off all the hard work that I’ve put into this camp on fight night.”

Adorno (14-0-2, 12 KOs) has fought to a draw in each of his last two fights, dropping fellow unbeaten Jamaine Ortiz twice in April 2021 after dueling Héctor “Guadaña” García in January 2020. The 22-year-old was born in Union City, New Jersey and now resides in Allentown, Pa., having fought in nearby Philadelphia five times throughout his career. Adorno turned pro in 2016 sa edad nga 17 after a standout amateur career where he amassed a 178-22 record and beat Shakur Stevenson’s twice. He has scored knockout victories in nine of his first 10 pro away.

“This fight is a chance for me to show my true talents,” said Adorno. “Not taking anything away from Rivera, but I know I’m going to be the better fighter on March 26. I’m working with a new trainer, Raúl ‘Chino’ Rivas, who has trained many talented fighters, and I’m ready to showcase myself at my very best. I’m more focused than ever and I’m not going to let this opportunity pass me by. Everybody better be ready for a show on March 26.”

Rodríguez (12-1-1, 11 KOs) bounced back from his first career defeat, a majority decision loss to Kenneth Sims Jr., to knockout the previously unbeaten Juan Pablo Romero on the Canelo vs. Plant SHOWTIME PPV® undercard in November. The 26-year-old burst onto the scene with knockout victories in 10 sa iyang unang 11 fights and put together an impressive five wins in 2020.

“March 26 is another step toward my world championship goal,” said Rodríguez. “I am fighting a tough veteran fighter who has faced top-level competition. I’ve stayed in camp through Christmas so that I can be 100% ready for this fight. Winning on March 26 means a lot for my career and I hope that a win will put me in contention for a title shot this year. I want to show the world that I’m ready for the big names in the division.”

The 34-year-old Velasco (23-2, 14 KOs) enters this fight on a three-bout winning streak, having most recently earned a split decision victory over Zachary Ochoa in February 2021. A native of Jujuy, Argentina, Velasco has tangled with some of the toughest fighters in the 140-pound division, including former champions Mario Barrios and Regis Prograis. Velasco will fight in the U.S. for the fifth time on March 26.

“I’m very honored to be on a great card like this,” said Velasco. “This is actually the second time that I’ve been preparing to face Rodríguez, so I know what I’m up against. He’s going to come into the right at 100%, just like I will. May the best man win on March 26.”

Orlando, Fla. – February 18, 2022 - Jamaine “The Technician”Ortiz used his superior hand and foot speed to dance and dish out punishment against gameNahir Albright to win the vacant NABF title in the main event ofShoBox: Ang Bag-ong Henerasyon as part of an action-packed doubleheader onShowtime Friday night at the Caribe Royale Resort.

Ortiz (15-0-1, 8 KOs) sailed to a unanimous decision win by scores of 98-92, 97-93 ug 97-93 to remain undefeated and stamp his name as a player in a loaded lightweight division. I-klikHERE to watch video of the decision.

Whether he was walking Albright (14-2, 7 KOs) down or punching on the move, Ortiz produced a dominant and flashy performance over 10 rounds, wowing a crowd that included former light heavyweight championAntonio Tarver and San Francisco 49ers All-Pro offensive linemanTrent Williams. I-klikHERE to watch highlights of the ninth round.

After he was dropped twice in his last fight against Joseph Adorno in a majority draw in April, Ortiz looked more poised and patient in the early going, picking his punches carefully and hitting and moving while avoiding Albright’s big right hand.

As the difference in speed became apparent, Ortiz began to open up in the second after he scored with a big left that caught Albright clean. From that point on, Ortiz maintained control of the distance and pace, leaping at Albright with lefts and rights or peppering him with jabs.

“I think I showed maturity in this fight,” Ortiz said. “I was cautious in the beginning. I didn’t want to get caught like I did in my last fight. After I took the first couple rounds to feel him out, I saw that I could do whatever I wanted in there and I started to get into a groove and let my punches go.”

Ortiz, of Worcester, Misa., mitugpa 48% (103 sa 216) sa iyang gahum kumo, compared to 41% for Albright (88 sa 216), but it was his body punching that produced the biggest numerical disparity. Ortiz out-landed Albright 42 sa 4 to the body, showcasing that aspect of his game in the fifth round when he found a home for several thudding body shots. Afterward, Ortiz called out the power-puncher Rolly Romero (14-0, 12 KOs) as the opponent he wants to face next.

“He’s got a big name,” Ortiz said. “He’s a big puncher, but he can’t box. That would be an easy fight. My goal is to have a title eliminator and to win a title. Human nga, my goal is to be one of the top pound-for-pound fighters in the sport.”

Ortiz’s signature round was the sixth, when he showcased his footwork and speed, darting around the ring and landing rights and lefts. He connected with an overhand right on the run while New Jersey’s Albright was on the ropes and then landed several unanswered right uppercuts to punctuate the round.

Albright, an aspiring R&B singer, showed his toughness and resilience by trying to match Ortiz’s output each round. He had success in spurts, but it was fleeting. In the ninth, he landed a pair of overhand rights, only for Ortiz to use his footwork to avoid taking further punishment.

“He was the better man in there tonight,” an emotional Albright said. “It was a great experience and I saw a different look. I know that I have all the talent and ability, and this will not deter me at all from being a world champion.”

Sa telecast opener, si Pablo Kroll ugMarquis Taylor fought to a spirited split draw in their eight-round super welterweight bout by scores of 77-75 for Kroll, 80-72 for Taylor and 76-76 in a verdict that frustrated both fighters. I-klikHERE to watch video of the decision.

Before the bout, Philly’s Kroll spoke of the little respect he had for Taylor’s power, since Taylor only had one knockout on his ledger, but it was Taylor who was the harder and busier puncher in the contest, relying on a check left hook that continually found its mark.

Houston’s Taylor connected on 34% of his power punches compared to 29% for Kroll, outscoring him 98 sa 71 and out-landing him 109 sa 84 in total punches.

Taylor (12-1-2, 1 KO) staggered Kroll (9-0-1, 6 KOs) in the sixth with the biggest punch of the fight, a left that caused Kroll to fall against the ropes as Taylor followed up with digging shots to the body.

“I thought I had it for sure,” ni Taylor. “I thought I had the fight in the bag. I don’t know what the judges saw. I was being the aggressor and I landed the clearer shots. I thought I really had that fight with no questions. I don’t know what else I could’ve done.”

The busier and fresher fighter, Taylor didn’t sit in between rounds and at times had to be restrained by his trainer from running to the middle of the ring before his minute of rest was up.

Normally a patient and technically sound fighter, Kroll, a former amateur star who won the 2016 U.S. Olympic Boxing Pagsulay, went after Taylor in the first, throwing a wild right hand that continually missed its mark.

Kroll fought well in spurts and with urgency in the eighth and final round, but Taylor was ready for him.

“I thought I won the fight 5-3,” Kroll said. “I took the beginning and the end. He won a couple rounds in the middle. We can run it back on the next ShoBox. I am ready to fight him again. He was awkward, but I outworked him on the inside. I won that fight.”

International Boxing Hall of FamerBarry Tompkins called the action from ringside alongside former world championRaul Marquez and renowned combat sports authorityBrian Campbell sa pag-alagad ingon nga batid nga analista. Hall of FamerSteve Farhood was the unofficial scorer. Ang executive producer mao angGordon Hall uban saRich Gaughan sa paghimo ug saRick Phillips magiyahon nga.
