“KO Night бокса: Быстрый огонь” это презентация ООО «КО Найт Бокс».
Hernandez drew nearly 3,200 fans for his professional debut, Март 25, в соседнем Mulvane (Канзас), in which the 21-year-old future star stopped Патрик Гутьеррес в четвертом раунде главного события, which was also televised live on CBS Sports Network.
Rodriguez is chasing the American dream having moved 12 years ago to Wisconsin for a job opportunity and better life for his family. He had started boxing in Mexico but was unable to continue because he needed to work. A few years after he moved to Wisconsin, Rodriguez decided he wanted to box again, although he had a difficult time finding a trainer who wanted to work with a 24-year-old novice. Тренер Eddie Haynes gave Rodriguez an opportunity to join Team Certified, which includes former world title challenger Ангел Манфреди, who also works Rodriguez’ угол.
After a brief yet undefeated amateur career, highlighted by Rodriguez’ gold-medal performance in the in the Milwaukee Golden Gloves Championships, Jose turned pro last July in Milwaukee against Nicholas Brand. Сейчас, he has a pair of first-round knockouts, the last this past September against Ричард Таллмэддж, who was coached by Nate Jones, По иронии судьбы, also an American Olympic bronze-medal winner in 1996.
Родригес, who drives 1 ½-hours to train at his gym, works the night shift in a factory. “I fight for my wife and three children,” the 29-year-old Rodriquez said. “This is a very important fight for me because, when I knock him out, it’ll open doors for me and my team. I train very hard every day because I want to make a living boxing, or at least enough to work less hours, so I can see my kids more than the hour a day I do now. I’ve already lost too much time
“This is going to be a good action-fight, от начала до конца, as long as it lasts. I like to fight inside, putting a lot of pressure on my opponent. I don’t want to leave it in the hands of the judges. No decision, я нокаутирую его. If he thinks this is going to be an easy fight, he’ll know who I am after our fight. Я собираюсь закончить его!”
