The members of Team Sosa (Jimmy Sosa is her head trainer) are also learning Japanese. The team is united.

“Although I am struggling with the English language, I am very happy to have come to New York City. I am grateful to Lou DiBella (her promoter, DiBella Entertainment) for giving me the opportunity.

Even though I don’t speak English, I have met many friends who saw what I was doing and supported me.”

Providence (Mayo 28, 2024) -Opisyal sa pulisya sa Providence nga si Kyana "Special Kay" Williams, sa usa ka 2024 Bag-ong England nga Golden Gloves Champion, nakakuha og bronze medal sa welterweight (146-pound) division sa bag-ohay lang nga National Golden Gloves Tournament of Champions nga gidumala sa Lungsod sa Detroit.

Ang National Golden Gloves Tournament of Champions adunay usa ka Who's Who sa amateur boxing sa Estados Unidos. Halos tanang dagkong U.S. boksingero sukad 1928 nakigtigi niining prestihiyosong kompetisyon.

Gipasira ni Williams si Zamyla Thurman-Houston sa opening round pinaagi sa unanimous nga desisyon, 5-0, ug napildi siya sa semifinals round, 3-2, ni Brianna Gulia, ang kataposang runner-up.

“Napamatud-an ko nga isa ako sa pinakamaayo sa pungsod,” usa ka malipayon nga si Williams miingon bahin sa iyang pasundayag. “Nalipay kaayo ko niini.”

Williams, usa ka residente sa Providence, gi-coach ni David Keefe ug Joshua Lemar sa Bishop's Boxing sa Bridgewater ug Veloz Boxing sa Providence.

TEAM WILLIAMS (R-L) – Joshua Lemar, Kyana Williams ug Dave Keefe

“Migawas siya sa wala,” pasabot ni coach Keefe. “Tulo ka tuig ang milabay, Nagbansay kog mga manggugubat ug si Kyana naa sa gym. Giingnan nako siya sa dihang andam na siya nga mokontak nako, Gibansay ko siya. Nagsugod kami upat ka bulan ang milabay ug tan-awa kung unsa ang iyang nahimo. Mahimo siyang mahimong pro karon, apan gusto ko nga magpadayon sa pagtrabaho sa pipila pa nga mga butang sa dili pa niya buhaton. ”

Si Williams adunay daghang mga babag nga gibuntog aron makuha kung asa siya sa kinabuhi ingon man sa boksing. Sa unang pagkakita ni Keefe niya, Dili pa andam si Kyana nga mopasalig sa boksing, kadaghanan tungod sa iyang bag-ong karera isip usa ka pulis. Karon, ikawalong tuig na siya isip miyembro sa Providence Police Department, nagpatrolya sa North End sa dakbayan. Bag-o lang siya naghimo sa listahan sa Detective, ug naglaum siya nga ma-promote dayon.

Tungod kay ang iyang eskedyul sa trabaho anaa sa taliwala 6:45 am. UG ug 2:45 sa gabii. UG, siya makahimo sa pag-juggle sa iyang bokasyon ug boksing. Ang iyang kasagarang adlaw magsugod sa 5 am. alang sa pagbansay sa kusog-ug-kondisyon, gisundan sa usa ka buntag run, ug nag-ehersisyo siya sa boksing sa gabii.

“Ako usa ka sayo nga mibangon,” miangkon siya, “aron wala koy problema (pagdumala sa iyang oras). Duna koy trabaho nga buhaton, mga lagda mao ang mga lagda ug ang mga balaod mao ang mga balaod, ug naningkamot ko sa paghimo sa mga adlaw sa mga tawo nga mas sayon ​​sa diha nga ako moadto sa tawag. Sa singsing, bisan, Gihatagan nako og kalisdanan ang akong mga kaatbang.”

Nagsugod si Williams sa combat sports isip kickboxer sa dihang siya pa 13, nakigkompetensya sa unang higayon sa dihang siya 15, ug una siyang nagsugod sa boksing 2013. Nagbakasyon siya og pito ka tuig sa boksing, bisan tuod siya kanunay nga mosulod sa gym sama sa iyang gibuhat sa dihang iyang nahimamat si Keefe.

“Nagpulis ko, apan dili ka makaduwa og boksing,” miangkon siya. “Wala ko apil tanan (boxing). Morag nagbisikleta. Nakat-unan nako ang pipila ka mga butang nga nakatabang kanako sa boksing. Kinahanglan nga kalmado ko sa pagbuhat sa trabaho sa pulis sama sa akong gibuhat sa ring. Ang lebel sa pagsalig nga akong nabatonan isip usa ka pulis nakatabang kanako sa ring, usab.

Adunay pipila ka ubang mga isyu. Sa 2015, siya ug ang iyang amahan parehong gipusil atol sa pagsulong sa balay. Si Williams gipusil ubos sa bat-ang, iyang amahan sa tudlo sa tiil. Gipili sa mga doktor nga dili kuhaon ang bala tungod sa posibleng kadaot sa nerbiyos ug/o impeksyon, nagtuo nga ang pag-ehersisyo luwas nga mapalayo ang bala gikan sa kadaot sa ugat. “Kon midagan ko og unom ka milya,” siya miingon, “Ang akong bitiis manhid. Kinahanglan kong magtukod og kusog sa akong wala ug, basta mag yoga ug stretch, Maayo na ko karon.”

Atol sa iyang pahulay gikan sa boksing, Midugang og gibug-aton si Williams ug sa dihang andam na siyang mopasalig sa boksing, siya kinahanglan nga mawad-an sa gibug-aton ug mawala 65 libra.

“Pagkita nako ni Dave,” dugang sa 27-anyos nga si Williams, "Nahibal-an ko nga kinahanglan ko nga mabalik ang porma sa wala pa nako siya makontak bahin sa pagbansay kanako. Mao kadto ang pinakamaayong desisyon nga akong nahimo sukad.”

Usa pa ka hinungdanon nga pangutana kung magpabilin ba siya nga boksing ingon usa ka amateur o mahimong pro.

“Nalipay ko nga nahimong bahin sa USA Boxing,” siya mitapos, “Apan maminaw ko kung ang husto nga deal gitanyag. Gibuksan nako ang daghang mga mata sa The National Golden Gloves.

Coyle inspired by Katie Taylor’s performance

Tampa, FL (Mayo 2, 2022) – Like most who love the sweet science, undefeated middleweight Connor “The Kid” Coyle was fully engaged in the Katie TaylorAmanda Serrano away.


Recognized as the biggest in women’s boxing history, Taylor-Serrano took place in front more than 19,000 fans at a sold out Madison Square Garden. It was the first time a female fight headlined at The Mecca of Boxing.


Following four fast-paced and competitive rounds, Serrano rocked Taylor in the fifth with a left hook followed by a left cross. Taylor was in bad shape and nearly tasted the canvas for the first time in her career but managed to finish the round on her feet.


Serrano kept the momentum over the next few rounds as she appeared to be headed towards the biggest win of her great career. Taylor impressively turned the tides in the final three rounds of the contest, finding her second wind and outfighting Serrano en route to a split decision victory.


“What an incredible fight that was – major credit to both women” said Coyle, who trained with Taylor in Dublin when both were amateurs. “Katie really had to overcome a lot of adversity against Serrano especially in the fifth round. Katie showed incredible heart and came through like a champion. She’s a true warrior and great inspiration for me heading into the most important fight of my career.”

Teen Sensation Hollie Towl Secures European Crown After Battle Royale Against Italy’s Nadia Flalhi

Hollie Towl may only be 18 mga tuig sa edad, but already she is competing at the highest level in the professional game, just as she did as an amateur, winning no less than five National championships as well as many other regional accolades.


Since turning pro in September 2020 the sensational teen has racked up an impressive 6-0-0 record and is the youngest World Champion, of either gender, having secured the Women’s International Boxing Association (WIBA) Featherweight World Championship back in September 2021, with a win over Argentina’s Cristina Del Valle Pacheco.


On Sunday afternoon Towl stepped up a division to challenge and beat former Italian Amateur National Champion Nadia Flalhi to secure the Professional Boxing Council (PBC) Super Featherweight European Championship by unanimous decision; winning every round on judges Carla Fox and Steve Tighe’s scorecards and winning all but three rounds which judge Adrian Thorne scored as drawn on his card.


On paper this was as as close to a genuine fifty-fifty contest you possibly wish for, exceptional amateur careers and both unbeaten as professionals, so no surprise then that the actual fight soon became a full on Battle Royale.


Right from the opening bell both sensational young warriors went into battle, it was breathtaking watching the contest unfold, initially Flalhi took full advantage of her height and superior reach to keep Towl at bay, but Towl is as savvy as they come and it wasn’t long before she used her exceptional ring craft to neutralise the Italian’s height and reach advantage, before letting rip with scintillating flurries and big shots to head and body.


As the fight progressed Flalhi adapted her game plan and drew the feisty teen to the inside, a plan that may have worked on others with less ability, but not with Towl, she was just as happy to go to war up close and took advantage of every opportunity that came her way.


In addition to the sensational Towl versus Flalhi finale of the Boyle Pro Boxing promoted event, the fans in attendance were treated to five further closely matched contests.


Worksop’s Eleanor Coulson extended her record to 5-1-0 after her opponent Aimee Moody was forced to retire at the end of the first with a serious knee injury.


Middleweight Cameron Moran took his record to 2-0-0 with a close victory over the extremely tough Afghan born Londoner Zahir Bennett. Moran versus Bennett was without doubt a leading candidate for Fight of the Night, as with Towl versus Flalhi it was an all action affair.


Cruiserweight Alvis Berzins extended his unbeaten record to 3-0-1 with a closely fought victory over debuting Owen James. After four sensation rounds Referee Lee Murtagh scored the contest 39-38.


Chesterfield Super Middleweight Luke White endured a baptism of fire on his pro debut against Chessington, Surrey hard man Richard Harrison. White securing his first win as a pro by a 40-37 points victory.


Worksop’s Ben Gore made a surprise appearance, following debuting Jayden Harris pulling out the day before, and faced Belfast’s Marty Kayes. Clearly was worthwhile stepping up to the plate for Gore as Referee Adrian Thorne scored the contest in his favour 40-37.


Boxing fans will not have to wait long to watch these young warriors in action again, as Boyle’s Pro Boxing has another event planned at the Shirebrook Leisure Centre in Mansfield on the 26th March 2022, and as with Sunday’s event will be broadcast exclusively live on FITE, in association with KC Sofas, and word is Chris Boyle is contemplating Hollie Towl making her first defence of her WIBA Featherweight World titlewatch this space!
