Women’s boxing sensation Claressa Shields has been named a top-10 finalist for the 2018 Individual Sport “Sportswoman of the Year” by the prestigious Women’s Sports Foundation.

 

 

 

The two-time Olympic Gold Medalist and now two-division professional World Champion will be looking to repeat as winner this year, as she already won the award in 2016, after her second gold medal victory.

 

 

 

Finalists were selected based on athletic performances between August 1, 2017, and June 30, 2018. The public and the Women’s Sports Foundation’s Awards Committee will select the award winner. She will be the athlete who receives the highest combined share of online public voting (50% of composite) and the Awards Committee vote (50% of composite). Online voting runs from July 23 till augusti 3 vid 11:59 p.m. (EST).

A pillar of her community in Flint, Michigan, as well as a tireless advocate for women’s boxing and athletics in general, 22-year-old Shields has rocketed to superstardom and become the face behind the resurgence of women’s boxing.

 

 

 

In just six professional fights (6-0, 2 Kos), the popular Shields has won the unified women’s 168-lb Super Middleweight and unified women’s 160-pound Middleweight championships. In her last ring appearance, held on June 22 and broadcast live on Showtime Championship Boxing, Shields’ match drew higher ratings than a World Heavyweight Championship unification match held earlier this year.

 

 

 

Grundad år 1974 by tennis legend, Billie Jean King, the Women’s Sports Foundation is dedicated to creating leaders by ensuring all girls access to sports. Past winners of Women’s Sports Foundation awards include Venus and Serena Williams, Abby Wambach, Meryl Davis, Simone Biles, Yani Tseng and Candace Parker.

 

 

 

While a number of female athletes have received multiple nominations, few have been able to repeat… but Claressa Shields loves a good fight.

 

 

 

I am honored to be nominated by the Women’s Sports Foundation as a finalist for the 2018 Sportswoman of the Year,” said Claressa Shields. “It means the world to me to be in the company of such outstanding women and athletes being considered for this prestigious award. We all work hard and will not stop until every sportswoman achieves the equality we deserve.

 

 

 

I am thrilled for Claressa and so proud of her for all her accomplishments in and out of the ring as a woman, as an athlete, and as someone who is a mentor and role model to young women the world over,” said Shieldsco-manager Mark Taffet. “As a once-in-a-generation athlete, Claressa Shields sets the bar high for herself and all female athletes, lifting the conscience of the sports world with every step she takes. It is a privilege to be part of her history-making journey, and I applaud the Women’s Sports Foundation for their work in raising the profile of these great athletes.

 

 

 

“Claressa’s journey from her days as a teenager growing up in Flint has been historic every step of the way,” said her promoter, Dmitriy Word of Word-kampanjer. “She is unique combination of an elite athlete and a socially conscious hero of the people. Her record-breaking accomplishments inside the ring inspire fans and elevate women’s sports all around the world.”

BARRIOS SCORES KNOCKOUT OF THE YEAR TYPE KO OVER SATYBALDINOVA

Photos By Robert Elizondo

 

CORPUS CHRISTI, TX (Juli 8, 2018) – Last night in star fashion, San Antonio’s undefeated female boxing sensation, Selina “Aztec drottning” Stadsdelar,” förbättrades till (4-0, 2 Kos), with devastating one punch knockout over current WBF international lightweight champion, AidaLady SpartaSatybaldinova (3-1-1). Barrios landed a crushing picture perfect left hook to the chin of Satybaldinova, slutar anfallen på 1:24 mark of round four, in what many would say is a candidate for “Knockout of the Year”. The fight that took place at the American Bank Center Water Garden room in Corpus Christi, TX, presented by Reyna Promotions.

 

 

 

From the opening bell both fighters went bombs away, with Selina landing the cleaner, more powerful blows to Satybaldinova. “Lady Spartawas all game as she went toe-to-toe with Barrios, holding her ground for the time being, but taking a lot of damage. I rond två, both fighters continued to leave everything in the ring, throwing power punches with both hands. Barrios again was getting the better punches off. I runda tre, Barrios hurt Satybaldinova with a combination flurry of punches, but Aida being the warrior that she is, made it to round four. After another aggressive being to the round, Barrios landed that massive left hook to the jaw of Satybaldinova, and the fight was over.

 

 

 

I wanted to come out tonight and give my Texas fans a night to remember,” said Selina Barrios, who is the current NABF lightweight champion. “After feeling her out in the first couple of rounds, I knew I was going to land a big shot at some point in the right, because she was standing right in front of me. When I landed that left hook, I knew she wasn’t going to get up. I set it up nicely, and she walked right into it. I have a lot of respect for Aida, she fought like a warrior, and if she wants the rematch, I’ll give it to her.

 

 

 

I fought hard but didn’t get victory tonight,” said Satybaldinova. “Next time I will win. I will continue to work harder to fight the best. I will never give up. I hope to fight Selina again in rematch.

 

 

 

 

Med segern, Selina gets the fourth win of her career. Barrios said she is willing to fight anyone in the lightweight division, including all champions. When asked about what next Barrios stated.

 

 

 

I want to call out all the women fighting in the lightweight division.” Barrios fortsatte. “You might have took the Olympics from me, but you cant run from me now. Katie Taylor och Mikaela Mayer, you can’t hide forever, I’m coming for all Y’all.

 

 

 

Selina put on a spectacular show tonight,” sa Colin Campbell, co-manager of Barrios. “A performance like this puts her at the top of all females vying to be considered the most dangerous fighter in women’s boxing.

 

 

 

What an unbelievable knockout Selina displayed tonight,” angivna Charles Campbell, who co-manages Barrios with his son Colin. “Once the knockout hits the masses, its going to go viral. Selina belongs up there with Clarissa Shield as one of the best female boxers in the sport. No female boxer is more exciting to watch then Selina Barrios, no one!”

 

 

 

All females fighting at lightweight and super featherweight better take notice of Selina Barrios.” Said Barrios’ advisor-promoter Kerry Daigle, av Keep Punching Entertainment.Although Selina had a remarkable performance tonight, the best is yet to come. We still haven’t seen the best Selina Barrios yet, and that is scary. She is taking the boxing world by storm.

SAN ANTONIO, TX (Juli 9, 2018) – For those who missed the war that everyone is talking about in women’s boxing between Selina “Aztec drottning” Stadsdelar (4-0, 2 Kos), och AidaLady SpartaSatybaldinova (3-1-1), please click the video link above to see the full fight in its entirety. Stadsdelar’ knockout over Satybaldinova is a candidate for “Knockout of the Year”.

TWO UNDEFEATED FEMALE WARRIORS COLLIDE ON JULY 7, 2018; BARRIOS vs. SATYBALDINOVA

SELINAAZTEC QUEEN” BARRIOS
RETURNS TO HER HOME STATE OF TEXAS

 

SAN ANTONIO, TX (Juli 3, 2018) – Undefeated female sensation, Selina “Aztec drottning” Stadsdelar (3-0, 1 KO), returns to the ring this Saturday night, Juli 7, 2018, as the main event in Corpus Christi, Texas, in the well-established American Bank Center Water Garden Room, bringing a loaded card of fistic fury.

Stadsdelar, who owns the NABF lightweight title, which she won in her 3rd professional bout, kommer att möta AidaLady SpartaSatybaldinova (3-0-1) från Astana, Kazakstan, best known as theFemale GGG”, and is the current WBF International Lightweight Champion. Both girls are undefeated and hold titles as lightweights. Barrios is also rated #18 in the world by the WBC (World Boxing Council). This bout will be held over 8 rundor.

This bout is promoted by Reyna Promotions Corpus Christi. The promoters were looking for a first-class main event and landed a fight that is a solid television fight. The local ABC-TV affiliate (KSAT) in San Antonio will be in Corpus to broadcast this fight live and stream it across the internet. Female and male fight fans across the world that know these two pugilists will be tuning in to watch an action-packed fight as both warriors step forward and throw punches without grabbing and holding or running. Barrios and Satybaldinova are both guaranteeing a knockout.

Selina has never been pressured in a boxing ring with a fighter like myself,” said the WBF Champ Satybaldinova. “I’m a pressure fighter that will take two punches to throw one bomb, and I feel I will be too strong for her. I do know I don’t have to look for Selina and have watched her fights. She stands and fights, which is made to order for me,”

Selina shoots back stating, “I have watched Aida’s videos and her comments about coming into my area of south Texas where I’m from, and saying she is going to knock me out, infuriates me. If it’s a war she wants, she just lit the fuse. No one is coming to south Texas to beat the “Aztec drottning” and we will find out how tough she is. Det är krigstid. Let’s do this.

Undefeated Super lightweight contender and brother of Selina, Mario Barrios (21-0, 13 Kos), called his agents and promoters to let them know he is leaving camp, to go to this fight and is bringing a huge fan base with him. George Foreman’s former camp organizer is coming in to work the corner with Selina, and Deborah Hawkins, the representative for the NABF Female title fights, will be there to discuss a possible rematch for the championship, if the fight is as competitive as she thinks it will be.

GM3 Promotions from California, Keeppunching Entertainment from Louisiana, and CCC Entertainment from Corpus Christi, among other promoters are eyeing these two warriors for future shows and will also be in the audience along with other well-known agents, chefer, and promoters. Eying this fight from long distance is DiBella Entertainment in New York as Lou DiBella is building a huge stable of top notch female fighters across the globe.

Great athletes, especially boxers and in this case female boxers, are very fascinating. It will be thrilling to watch two undefeated female athletes compete against each other, while the rest of the world of female fighters avoids the undefeated stars. The difference between the greats in boxing and the contenders are those who appear to be fearless and accept all challenges and how they respond to adversity. The greats put in persistent effort to excel while the contenders lose steam and regress by fighting easier competition on regular basis. This will be Barriossecond undefeated opponent in only her 4th fight, and both have had very advanced amateur backgrounds. Satybaldinova, å andra sidan, is coming into unfamiliar territory. That is what the greats do. Two potential greats meeting head to head early in their careers with each having the utmost confidence that they will win by KO.

Robert Hunt of GM3 Promotions: I am glad we were able to come to an agreement to make this fight happen because I know Aida is going to win. Barrios is good but has never fought a fighter like Aida. One thing I know for sure is the fans are in for a great night of boxing and know this is a match-up that helps keep female boxing on the forefront.

Colin Campbell of CCC Promotions:The boxing community in south Texas is going bonkers over this fight and plans to set a record for attendance. It’s fights like this that creates raving fight fans.

Ernest Reyna of Reyna Promotions: “This is my 3rd show and to be able to make this fight on this show is outstanding. Fighting as the co-main event is former heavyweight champion of the world, Oliver McCall. I am more excited about this show as a fan than a promoter. I’m pumped.

Charles Campbell of CCC Promotions:I travel the USA going to top fights. To think this is going to be in south Texas says a lot about the emergence of boxing here in Corpus Christi.

Kerry Daigle of Keeppunching Entertainment:In my 45 years of working in boxing, this may be one of the most fun matches to be made in professional female boxing. Kazakhstan vs Mexico. You can’t ask for better athletes to compete against each other. Two champions…. both undefeated…. going head to head.

“Jag slog honom med ett anständigt skott när jag gick ner honom och såg att jag skadade honom,” Joe Smith Jr. förklarade. “Så, Jag såg ut för att avsluta det. Jag skulle ha velat ha fått lite rost, men jag är nöjd med min prestanda. Min käke känns bra.”

 

 

 

“Vi vill gå till toppen,” Smiths promotor Joe DeGuardia angivna. “Joe’s plan and goal has always been to be world champion. We wanted (Sergey) Kovalev before this fight, but it didn’t work out. We’re hoping to get him in the fall.

 

 

 

Kovalev looks great, he motivates me,” Smith noted. “I think I can take advantage of his conditioning.

 

 

 

Coming off her historic fight this past May against the undefeated Queen of Boxing Cecelia Breakhus, who won a 10-round decision in the first female fight to air on HBO, three-time world champion KaliKO MequinonoagReis (14-7-1, 4 Kos) cruised past Mexican welterweight PattyLas Elegante” Ramirez (11-6, 5 Kos), en före detta VM-titel utmanare, winning all eight rounds.

I tv-öppnaren, obesegrad junior välvikt “Åtgärd” Anthony Laureano (8-0 3KO: s) levde upp till sitt smeknamn, aldrig ta ett bakåtsteg, när han dunade Juan Rodriguez (8-10-1 6KO: s) i mitten av ringen från öppningsklockan genom slutet för ett dominerande sex-rundars enhälligt beslut. Den 2016 New England Golden Gloves-mästare Laureano, som kämpar från East Hartford, CT, sätta på en underhållande show framför hans stora, högt kontingent av fans. Laureano använde effektivt varje slag i sitt stora arsenal för att bryta ner en tuff, spel Rodriguez.

 

 

 

“Jag trodde att jag gjorde det bra,” Laureano sa efter kampen, “men jag skulle vilja se fler vinklar. Jag vill se mer kraft, alltför. Det är där, han kände det; det kommer. Jag har en lång väg. Nästa kamp, Jag skulle vilja ha en åtta rundare. Vi lägger till fler personer i teamet. Jag hoppas att alla ser att jag blir bättre varje kamp. Jag har fler verktyg och min disciplin är där.”

 

 

 

Undefeated junior mellanvikt Wendy “Haitiska eld” Toussaint (9-0, 3 Kos) tände en överväldigad Andy Gonzalez (6-3, 5 Kos), slog honom från pelaren till stolpen, tills domare Steve Willis vinkade av kampen i tredje omgången. Haiti-infödda Toussaint, bor nu i Huntington, NY, använde sin överlägsna kraft och hastighet för att göra ett imponerande uttalande.

Russian Prospect Elena Savelyeva to Face IBF #10- and WBC #11-rated Nina Radovanovic on Friday, Juli 13 in Montenegro

Gold-star women’s bantamweight prospect Elena Savelyeva (4-0, 3 Kos) of Russia will return to the ring on Friday, Juli 13, in Herceg Novi, Montenegro, for an eight-round showdown against current #10 IBF och #11 WBC contender Nina Radovanovic (12-2, 3 Kos) of Serbia.

 

 

 

Formerly one of the most decorated female amateur boxers in the world, Savelyeva is being fast-tracked by her co-promoters, Salita Promotions and Russia-based Alexander Nevskiy Promotion Group. Radovanovic is a two-time world-title challenger, whose only two losses occurred in world-championship fights.

 

 

 

“Even though I only have four professional fights, I want to fight the best and show the boxing world my skills,” said Savelyeva, a former world, Europeisk (2X) och ryska (6X) amatör mästare, who represented her homeland in the 2012 Summer Olympics and competed in the first-ever women’s Olympic boxing match in history.

 

 

 

“Nina Radovanovic will be my toughest opponent on the professional ring. She is more experienced than me as professional, but I am sure that my amateur experience and already acquired professional experience will be enough for my victory which I plan to be impressive.”

 

 

 

Savelyeva says she’s optimistic about her quickly developing career, given the current state of female boxing.

 

 

 

“Female professional boxing is going in the right direction. Some of the top female fights are as exciting as the male boxers. The fact that Claressa Shields vs Hanna Gabriels did such amazing, record-setting TV ratings proves that women’s boxing at the top level is exciting and wanted.”

 

 

 

Savelyeva’s co-promoter, Dmitriy Salita, says the fast-track is justified for his talented Russian prospect.

 

 

 

“Women’s boxing had grown exponentially in recent times. Elena’s elite amateur pedigree makes her already one of the best female fighters in the world and I believe in the very near future, she will be a world champion.”

Reis kommer ut från en historisk kamp förra månaden kontra obestridda kvinnors världsmästerskapsmästare och pund-4-pund drottning, 33-0 Cecilia Braekhus, i den första kvinnliga anläggningen någonsin med på HBO.

COTER OCH BILDER FRÅN DAGENS MEDIA WORKOUT:

 

 

 

 

“Jag är så upphetsad över att kämpa hemma igen, särskilt efter vår historiska kamp mot HBO. Jag kämpade med Cecilia Braekhus. Vi var de första kvinnorna som någonsin kämpade på HBO och det var mer än en miljon tittare. Om jag visste att många skulle titta på, Jag skulle ha varit mycket mer nervös.”

 

 

 

“På papperet, det var en förlust, men det var verkligen en win-win för mig, och kvinnors boxning. Det har redan öppnat många dörrar för mig. Det har varit så mycket tillväxt för mig och kvinnors boxning. Det kommer att öppna dörren för andra kvinnor att slåss i nätverk. Det var ett steg upp för kvinnors boxning, inte bara för ett evenemang, men för evigt.”

 

 

 

“Jag är den första kvinnliga indian som slåss i New England.”

 

 

 

“Jag har kämpat 18 år. Jag spelade basket och volleyboll på gymnasiet, men jag älskar boxning.”

 

 

 

I showed in my last fight that I belong to be with the elite. I want to get a rematch (with Braekhus).”

 

 

 

Being a road warrior, I’m familiar fighting away or at home, but it’s more comfortable fighting here at home. My hometown crowd is always very supportive.

 

 

 

“(Lördag) I am going to come out with a victory. My opponent’s taller, but I just need to follow the game plan and execute.
