向博士致敬. 肯·“博士”·考克斯

洛克港拳擊

等級 1998

博士. 肯·“博士”·考克斯是一個傳奇人物。 他是一名老師, 教練, 導師, 知己, 和一個朋友。 他於二月去世 5, 2022 在年齡 88 歲, 在所有認識他、愛他的人心中留下一片空白.

我思考了最後的問題 24 幾個小時我們將如何在沒有博士的世界中航行. 考克斯, 又名“醫生”, 一個指導我們的人, 教給我們, 推動我們, 並指導我們. 他是一個可以照亮整個房間並引起注意的人. 當他分享生活經歷時,他可能會讓你堅持每一個字,或者他可能會讓你在地板上打滾, 笑到身體受傷.

雖然他昨晚的去世並不出人意料, 仍然有一千個大錘的力量來傷害。 我知道在寫這篇文章時,我可能會多次崩潰、抽泣或大哭。 拳擊界肯定有人在哭泣,今晚洛克海文拳擊隊和我們的大學拳擊大家庭都在哀悼.

博士. 考克斯進入我的生活 1994 當我還是洛克黑文大學一年級學生時。 我決定去洛克港, 事實上這是我唯一的選擇, 因為我已經變得如此迷戀拳擊的夢想。 當我發現Lock Haven有一支全國排名的球隊並且有一位知名教練時, 我決心參加.

那年秋季學期我到達校園時, 我的首要任務是尋找並會見博士. 考克斯, 帶著一系列令人興奮的問題。 他同意在為潛在團隊成員舉行公開會議之前幾週與我會面。 我走進他的學術辦公室所在的大樓,就看到一個胖胖的男人,白髮,圓臉上掛著燦爛的笑容,向我走來。 我不確定他是誰,但肯定不可能是這位傳奇教練。 就在那時,他走到我面前,, 用一種經常被模仿的聲音, 他做了自我介紹。 那時我沒有意識到我剛剛遇到了一個對我的生活產生如此積極影響的男人.

認識“Doc”真是人生的一大幸事。 他可以讓你笑,也可以讓你生氣。 他會把你叫出來,讓你陷入困境。 當教授, 他重視教育,並強制他的學生運動員, 當時的拳擊手, 和之前的摔跤手, 專注於他們的教育。 他會, 毫不猶豫, 如果參賽者未能跟上學業進度,則禁止他們參加表演或錦標賽.

他知道什麼時候該推動你,以及到底該按什麼按鈕。 他將把Lock Haven拳擊手帶到Rockview St. 監獄裡與囚犯進行訓練和拳擊。 第一次他帶我一起去, 我被一位年長、更有經驗的囚犯欺負和毆打。 我很害怕,一直看著他, 在某種程度上希望他能停止陪練。 但他回頭看了一眼,他的眼神讓我平靜下來,我知道要從角落裡打出一記還擊拳。 博士. 當我不相信自己的時候,考克斯相信了我。 幾年後, 在我任命我為洛克海文拳擊俱樂部主席之後, 他要求我提交文件,說明他選擇哪一款拳擊手參加即將在紐約舉行的比賽。 他還知道我會看到這些論文,所以他在上面寫道,我“遠沒有名單上的另一位拳擊手那麼有天賦”。 雖然我們從未談論過它, 他知道他會點燃我內心的火焰,通過奉獻和決心克服我天生能力的不足。 這只是他眾多激勵方法之一。 正如他常說的, 他“利用負面刺激來產生積極的結果”。

本質上, 博士. 考克斯是一個給予者。 他分享了他的知識, 他的經歷, 最重要的是, 他把年輕男女塑造成有競爭力的學生運動員和正派的人。 他與我們分享他的家人, 包括他的妻子格倫達, 誰是司機 (“飛行員”) 我們的許多公路旅行。 那些公路旅行, 他們是否是 45 分鐘即可到達賓夕法尼亞街. 或幾個小時到達安納波利斯, 總是很有趣的人生課程。 我們從來不被允許在這些旅途中睡覺,因為“醫生”發現這是教育的最佳時間。 他會討論他想到的任何話題,而這些話題往往來自左外野。 那些旅行從不無聊.

博士. 考克斯總是懇求我們回饋這項給我們帶來如此多好處的運動。 他鼓勵他的學生拳擊手從事教練和裁判工作, 經常讓我們協助他在我們的一位隊友的角落里工作, 或舉辦研討會以便我們獲得認證。 他會, 毫無疑問, 很高興寫一份工作或實習的推薦信。 他讓我坐在他的辦公室裡,他幫我寫推薦信。 他教我如何通過書面文字進行有效溝通,並重點使用能夠引起注意和尊重的“力量”和“影響力”詞語。 他總是願意被列為工作推薦人,因為他希望看到那些接受過培訓和指導的人在生活中取得成功.

從昨天開始, 我一直在思考我最喜歡的“Doc”故事, 我最常講的那些。 當然, 如果不模仿醫生的聲音和舉止,你就無法講述他的故事。 每年, 當 LHU 拳擊校友聚集在一起參加一年一度的拳擊家庭秀和晚會時, 我們都會在模仿醫生的同時講述我們最喜歡的故事。 可悲的是, 下次我們聚會是為了他的葬禮。 這是我應對他的死亡並在淚水中微笑的一種方式。 這些沒有特定的順序。 大部分情況下, 如果有人不想被叫出,我將避免使用任何名字.

  • 第一次公路旅行和“稗牛肉”——我和 Doc 以及 LHU 團隊的第一次公路旅行是在 10 月份 1994 到美國海軍學院。 這是一年一度的賽季啟動會議以及與海軍拳擊手的一輪拳擊比賽, VMI, 洛克避風港, 希彭斯堡, 和曼斯菲爾德。 這是相對平靜的一天,只是避風港的一名新手拳擊手挨了幾拳,現在正在抱怨他的下巴疼得厲害。 在我們回家的路上, 我們本來希望能快速停下來吃晚飯, 可能是麥當勞, 直到醫生在路邊發現了一個看起來像棚屋的小地方,名叫“稗牛肉”。 一旦他看到了, 他懇求格倫達在右邊車道上攔住司機,這樣我們就可以靠邊停車,他大聲說道:“Hun Hun……那是我們需要停下來的地方。它叫稗牛肉。它一定很美味。”!“他給了我們所有人幾美元點餐,我們都點了烤牛肉三明治,醫生買了一個超大份的選擇,看上去有月亮那麼大。我們悶悶不樂的拳擊手懇求他的下巴太酸了,無法咀嚼,所以他選擇了一杯湯。醫生咬了第一口他那巨大的烤牛肉三明治,高興地翻了個白眼。”!  這是有史以​​來最好的烤牛肉三明治”,看著他孤獨的喝湯的拳擊手, 他接著說:“你必須得到其中一個!  忘記你的下巴! 別再像個三色堇了,買一個吧!”
  • 角落裡的瘋狂——如前所述, 多克想給他的學生拳擊手提供學習教練的機會。 我大二那年在賓夕法尼亞州立大學有一張十二月卡,當我們來自布法羅的對手被大雪困住時,我和另一位隊友取消了我們的比賽。醫生看到了一個讓我們在角落裡幫忙的機會,我們每人打兩場比賽,他會讓你進入拳擊場並給出指示。 我和他合作的第一場比賽在洛克海文隊取得了明顯的勝利。 我和他合作的第二場比賽進展得不太順利。 這位洛克海文拳擊手錶現不佳,當然也沒有發揮出他的潛力。 通過第一輪, 我看得出來醫生生氣了。 隨著鈴聲響起, 他咆哮道“讓我擁有戒指”這從來都不是一件好事。 當我坐在那裡時, 我發誓這種情況永遠不會發生在我身上。 快進兩個月後, 我在同一個 PSU 擂台上與一個非常馬虎和笨拙的對手競爭,而第一輪進展得很糟糕, 很差。 第一輪結束的鈴聲響起, 當我開始走回我的角落時, 我看到多克走進了擂台,他的眼神裡充滿了狂野和憤怒。 我幾乎考慮走到對手的角落,問我是否可以在那里呆下一分鐘,因為我知道我的角落不會是一個有趣的地方。 以一種瘋狂的方式, 醫生對我的釋放實際上迫使我重新集中註意力,並讓我回來贏得那場比賽.
  • 總統晚宴——每年年底, 大學校長將為拳擊隊舉辦晚宴。 由於 Doc 已作為教授退休 1996, 那一年,他們決定晚宴不僅是為現任團隊舉辦的,還為一些選定的校友舉辦。 四月份拳擊全國賽結束後, 多克飛往斐濟幾週,參加拳擊研討會。 他原定在晚宴前一天回來。 我們在健身房等他,這樣我們就可以作為一個團隊去參加晚宴。 當Doc走進門時, 我們集體的下巴都掉到了地上。 他穿著西裝外套,打著領帶,穿著傳統的斐濟蘇魯服。 在我們眼裡, 他穿著類似裙子的東西。 他只是微笑著回應說:“這些太舒服了。我想我會開始更頻繁地穿著它們。” 說他的著裝是晚宴的話題,這確實是輕描淡寫的說法.
  • 豬肉 & Beans – Doc 生活中的決定性特徵之一是他的慷慨和樂於助人。 他與當地救世軍關係密切,每年, 他會安排一天讓拳擊隊敲響救世軍水壺的鐘聲。 當醫生髮現他的一名拳擊手經濟困難且買不起食物時, 他與救世軍達成協議,他們將為他捐贈一些食物。 我們正在裝載一箱捐贈的雜貨,這位來自穆斯林家庭的拳擊手看了一眼,拒絕了,因為裡面有豬肉。 醫生拿起罐子說:“你確定嗎??  你怎麼知道?”他被告知這是一罐豬肉 & 豆子。 他沉思了一會兒,簡單地說:“嗯……你知道我從來不知道裡面有豬肉。”?”
  • 不要吃披薩——感恩節前幾天,我們正前往紐約參加紐約體育中心的年度表演。 這是一場罕見的演出,演出前一天稱重,並全程前往曼哈頓, 醫生正在談論稱重後我們如何出去吃飯。 因為這是我第一年參加 NYAC 表演, 他允許我選擇我們稍後要享用的民族食物。 當然, 我選的是意大利語。 醫生還有一個非常重要的建議。 稱重後, 那裡會有披薩。 儘管我們都因為為了演出而增肥而感到飢餓, 他建議我們不要吃披薩,因為我們要出去吃晚飯。 洛克海文的三名拳擊手的體重和, 改變後, 我們走過去發現醫生正在吃他的第三片披薩。 不久之後, 我們坐在小意大利著名的盧娜餐廳,醫生抱怨說他不應該吃那個披薩,而且他太飽了,無法點餐。 傳說中的博士. 考克斯, 講述故事的人前一年吃了很多中國菜, 只剩下一份沙拉了。 當我們邊吃邊笑的時候, 肯·庫珀教練做出了敏銳的觀察。 醫生已經吃完了沙拉,正在吃妻子盤子裡的東西, 一直在說他不餓。 不錯過任何一個節拍, 醫生繼續從一名拳擊手的餐中取出多餘的肉丸.
  • 雪茄和伏特加——這是我沒有親眼目睹的,但他經常告訴我,讓我感覺自己就在那裡。 作為一位備受尊敬的摔跤教練, 多克經常被邀請參加俄羅斯的摔跤研討會,在那裡這項運動就像上帝一樣。 多克經常收到許多瓶最好的俄羅斯伏特加。 他將參加古巴的拳擊研討會。 在翻轉卡車輪胎成為大多數健身中心的流行事物之前, 多克借用了古巴的方法,讓他的戰士在卡車輪胎上彈跳,以增強腿部力量和體能。 許多次旅行結束後,他都帶著一些正宗的古巴雪茄回家。 他會告訴我們他如何去商店購買最便宜的雪茄和伏特加, 只是為了切換標籤。 然後,他會模仿那些抽廉價雪茄、喝廉價伏特加的人,認為他們正在消費真正的商品。 他會模仿他們喝伏特加和慢慢吸雪茄的動作,同時評論“如何才能真正品嚐到其中的不同”, 他一直在咯咯地笑,因為他知道他們真的滔滔不絕地談論這兩種商品的最低質量.
  • 體重——這不是什麼秘密, 醫生希望他的拳擊手參加不同重量級別的比賽. 他還總是設想在他的球隊中出現一個占主導地位的重量級人物,他會訓練那些在各自運動中已經耗盡資格的足球運動員或摔跤運動員. 每個學年開始時, 我會出現在周圍 190-195 醫生會設想我成為他重量級的解決方案, 儘管我沒有身高, 一旦我開始調節, 支撐它的重量. 我仍然記得那些對話. “好的佩內卡萊, 你的體重是 185 上週的比賽. 你今天體重多少?” 我會回复“182”,他會回复“好的”, 本星期, 我要把你和一個‘小’重量級人物放在一起。 ” 當他說“小”的時候, 通常是以下任何人 235 我會帶著口袋裡的石頭去稱重. 然後有一天, 距離區域賽僅幾天, 他決定嘗試另一條路. 我曾經介於 178-180 並充分期待參加比賽 180 在地區賽中,當他問“你認為你可以 165 週五之前?” 已經是周二下午了. 他認為這是我進入全國錦標賽的最佳途徑,所以我同意了. 春天的時候 1997, 一月之間 30 和四月 12, 醫生讓我參加五個不同重量級別的比賽.
  • 我的最後一次家庭秀——明天就是這個週年紀念日 (二月 7) 我會像每年一樣發布 Youtube 視頻. 家庭秀總是一件大事,醫生希望一切都完美. 正如庫普教練會對我們說的, 醫生會非常不耐煩,或者正如他雄辯地描述的那樣“他會是一頭屁股酸痛的熊”。 你最不想做的事就是惹惱醫生, 中, 或在主場表演結束後. 我的大四那年, 我正在與一位名叫邁克爾·喬丹的陸軍拳擊手較量. 我的朋友和室友帶著定制標誌和襯衫出現,他們坐在靠近我角落的看台上. 早在卡上, 當我換衣服的時候, 肯塔基州的一名拳擊手擊倒了賓夕法尼亞州立大學的一名對手,並通過跳繩和炫耀引起了觀眾的憤怒. 我不知道這一點, 當終場鈴聲響起時我的情緒突然襲來, 我敲響了手套,開始跑到我的角落,跳上繩子,向我的歡呼者致敬. 醫生讀懂了我的心思,嚴厲地說:“不!”這迫使我的動力變成了一種尷尬的疾馳, 看起來就像一匹剛剛被牛棒擊中的狂野野馬.

這兩天心情很激動,也很困難, 從發現Doc即將過渡到他去世的悲痛消息. 成為 LHU Boxing Facebook 頁面的管理員, 其中一項能力是批准職位。 我看到很多朋友提交的帖子供批准, 家庭, 校友們,包括很多照片。 不崩潰幾乎是不可能的。

博士. 考克斯是一名教練, 教育家, 導師, 和一個朋友。 正如我在他去世後首先在帖子中所說的那樣, 他在拳擊場內外教給了我很多教訓。 即使我不相信自己,他也相信我。 他推動我變得更好, 更好的拳擊手, 一個更好的學生, 一個更好的兒子, 一個更好的朋友, 和一個更好的人。 這些人生教訓仍然每天影響著我,我發現自己經常分享它們.

庫珀教練也表達了敬意 “那個在很多人心中的人從未真正消失”.  這是一個真實的陳述。 博士. 考克斯將通過他對眾多學生產生的積極影響繼續生活, 運動員, 家庭, 和朋友.

一定會想念你的, 博士. 考克斯。 謝謝你,我們愛你!!!

World Cup Boxing Series signs 2-time World title challenger “Mighty” Aston Palicte

Aston Palicite.jpg
LOS ANGELES (二月 7, 2022) World Cup Boxing Series (WCBS), co-founded by CEO Terry Hollan and matchmaker Guy Taylor, has announced it has signed 2-time World title challenger “Mighty” Aston Palicte (28-4-1, 24 科斯) to a multi-year promotional contract.

The 31-year-old Palicte, who fights out of Bago City, Negros Occidental, Philippines is the two-time World junior bantamweight title challenger against a pair of future Hall of Famers, fighting to a draw with fellow Filipino Donnie Nietes (43-1-6, 24 科斯), losing to current World Boxing Organization (WBO) Junior Bantamweight Champion Kazuto Ioka (28-2, 15 科斯).

A veteran matchmaker, Taylor has known and had a working relationship with Palicte and his manager, Jason Soong, for the past six years.
“We had a great run,泰勒說. “Getting the old team together feels like and old music group coming back for one more hit album. I think we’ve all learned a lot during this experience and realize we are a better unit when this team is together.”

“I am very happy that they still believe in me,” Palcite commented. “I’m excited to make another run for a world title.”

“I am really excited to go on our next title journey at bantamweight with World Cup Boxing Series,” Soong added. “We have been working with Guy Taylor since day-one and it just feels right that we continue our next chapter with him.”

在他的 2016 United States debut, Palicte faced off in Las Vegas with former World Boxing Council (WBC) 別. 5-rated contender and North American Boxing Federation (NABF) Super-Flyweight Champion Oscar Cantu (14-0) in Las Vegas Nevada. Palicte defeated the then-undefeated Texan by 10-round split decision to capture the NABF and WBO Inter-Continental Championships.

Nearly one year to the day, Palicte took on former world champion Jose Alfredo Rodriguez (32-6) 在得克薩斯州, scoring an emphatic 5-round technical knockout victory.

The two aforementioned triumphs set-up the biggest fight in Palicte’s career September 8, 2018, when the stage was set in Los Angeles for an All-Filipino matchup with legend Nietes on HBO for the vacant WBO Junior Bantamweight World Championship.

In a very close and entertaining bout, in which both men had their moments, the judges couldn’t come to an agreement and rendered even scorecards to keep the title vacant. Nietes would claim the vacant title three-months later, defeating Ioka by way of a 12-round split decision.

The WBO ordered a “Title Eliminator” that Palicte won with a second-round stoppage of WBO No. 4 contender Jose Martinez (20-0), setting up a rematch between Nietes and Palicte. 然而, Nietes vacated the world title just hours before the scheduled WBO purse bid, positioning Palicte versus Ioka in Japan for the vacant WBO Jr. Bantamweight Championship. In another all-action war, Palicte seriously hurt Ioka in the seventh round, only to get caught himself in the 10 as Ioka caught and wobbled Palicte, prompting the referee to halt the action.

There are some great potential matchups in the bantamweight division for the powerful Filipino, including a showdown with Jason Moloney 22-2 (18 科斯), who is the current WBC “Silver” Bantamweight Champion and WBC #2 競爭者, but more notably would be against the Bantamweight King Pin and unified World champion (WBA和IBF), 井上直ya 22-0 (19 科斯). Palicte is presently ranked No. 9 由國際拳擊聯合會, 還有沒有. 14 由WBO.

“I feel Aston can compete with anyone at 118 英鎊,泰勒得出結論. “He was the strongest contender at 115 and that was after depleting himself. Can you imagine what he will be like at his natural weight of 118? My partner (特里·霍蘭) and I are already working on a bout in the late March / early April timeframe and, after that, we would like an eliminator bout for the mandatory position against anyone in the top 15.”
Palicte joins rising Mexican lightweight prospect Luis “Koreano” Torres (14-0, 9 科斯) in the relatively new WCBS stable.

LAS VEGAS (二月 5, 2022) - Former unified welterweight world championKeith “One Time” Thurman又回來了.
 
Thurman proved he is still an elite welterweight, winning a 12-round unanimous decision over former super lightweight world champion馬里奧·“阿茲特卡”·巴里奧斯 in the main event of a FOX Sports PBC Pay-Per-View event Saturday night from Michelob ULTRA Arena at Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino in Las Vegas.


“This was a comeback fight after two and a half years away,” said Clearwater, Florida’s Thurman. “I wish I had my best performance, but I did the best I could under the circumstances. “I grade this performance a C+ or B- for myself.”
 
In his first fight in over 30 個月, the 33-year-old Thurman (30-1, 22 科斯) displayed the attributes that led him to the top of the 147-pound division. Thurman got off to a strong start and never relinquished control, at times punishing Barrios with hard shots.
 
鄰里 (26-2, 17 科斯) had his moments in his welterweight debut, particularly in the eighth when a left hook to the body caused Thurman to back up. The 26-year-old slugger from San Antonio, Texas also showed grit, gamely fighting back despite Thurman’s heavy artillery.
 
Tonight I showed the Mexican warrior in me. I take my hat off to Keith Thurman, he’s a warrior as well. We gave the fans a great fight,”巴里奧斯(Barrios)說.


然而, it wasn’t enough to overcome what was a fine performance from the relentless Thurman.
 
“We rocked him. We weren’t able to put him down and out, but we had a great performance and a great fight,” said Thurman.
 
“I want the belts. I want the champions. I want to be back on top, so whoever is willing to send Keith Thurman the contract, let’s go!”
 
In the super featherweight co-main event, four-division world champion獅子座“地震”聖克魯斯 delivered another vintage performance, overcoming adversity to win a wide 10-round unanimous decision overKeenan “Bedo” Carbajal.
 
“I went good rounds. If I had gone in there and finished him fast, I wouldn’t have gotten the experience I needed,” said the 33-year-old Santa Cruz. “I felt the long layoff a little bit, but I did my best and hopefully the fans loved it and want to see me again.”


聖克魯斯 (38-2-1, 19 科斯) suffered a cut underneath his left eye and one along his right eyelid both from accidental headbutts.
 
Undaunted, “El Terremoto” dominated the action, hurting Carbajal (23-3-1, 15 科斯) several times on his way to winning every round on all three scorecards (100-90).
 
“We’re going to go back to the gym, get better and work on what we did wrong,” Santa Cruz said. “We want to unify and defend our title. We want all the champions at 126 英鎊“。
 
Pay-per-view action also saw rising super welterweight sensationJesus “Mono” Ramos (18-0, 15 科斯) deliver a spectacular performance in the biggest fight of his career. The 20-year-old Ramos remained undefeated by knocking out dangerous veteran弗拉基米爾·埃爾南德斯 (13-5, 6 科斯) 在 2:21 of the sixth round.
 
“I was boxing him smartly and I wasn’t really looking for the knockout,” said Ramos. “他是一個強硬的, durable guy. I broke him down round by round, landing a clean shot that hurt him, so I got the job done.
 
The end came swiftly in the sixth when a Ramos overhand left caused Hernandez to lose control of his legs. Ramos proceeded to batter him to the head and body until referee Mike Ortega mercifully stepped in.
 
“We want to build our resume, like Floyd Mayweather did,” said Ramos. “He had Gatti, 科拉萊斯, Castillo and all the guys. That’s something you can’t take away from him and that’s what I want to do. I want to earn my reputation. I’m not here to have Instagram followers. I’m here to make a statement in boxing.”
 
In the pay-per-view opener, 前兩區世界冠軍Luis “Pantera” Nery 下降卡洛斯·卡斯特羅 in the first round on his way to a 10-round split decision win in a tactical battle between super bantamweights.
 
“My experience was definitely a factor,”內裡(Nery)說. “I have three world title fights under my belt and have faced tougher opponents than he has. It showed tonight.”
 
The action heated up in the first when southpaw Nery connected with a straight left that deposited Castro on the seat of his trunks. 鳳凰城, Arizona native managed to rise and survive the frame.
 
The bout turned into a chess match in the middle rounds as both Castro (27-1, 12 科斯) and Mexico’s Nery (32-1, 24 科斯) had their moments. 到底, Nery’s defense and accuracy proved to be the difference as he won 96-93 和 95-94 上兩張牌, while a third judge scored it for Castro, 95-94.
 
“I wanted to show everyone that I’m not just about haymakers,”內裡(Nery)說. “If I wanna brawl and be tactical, I can do that too.
 
“I knew I could knock him out, but I wanted to win proving I could box too. I would counter-punch and attack the way I wanted to.”
 
Preceding the pay-per-view, the PBC on FOX main event sawLuke Santamaria (13-2-1, 7 科斯) overcome a stiff challenge from阿貝爾·拉莫斯 (27-5-2, 21 科斯) to win a 10-round unanimous decision in their welterweight encounter. Following a slow start, Santamaria found his footing, often switching from orthodox to southpaw and having success from both stances. Ramos was game throughout, but all three judges saw Santamaria winning clearly by scores of 98-92, 96-94 和 96-94.
 
In the co-main event on FOX, super lightweight contenderOmar “El Relámpago” Juárez (13-1, 5 科斯) won a hard-fought 10-round split decision over 瑞安·“牛仔”卡爾. Juarez controlled the early action, surviving a mid-fight surge from Karl (19-4, 12 科斯) to walk away with the victory. One judge scored the action 95-94 for Karl while the other two judges had Juarez winning by scores of 96-93 和 95-94.

Toronto’s undefeated light heavyweight Kareem Hackett joins same 3 Point Management stable as 43-0 吉爾伯托“Zurdo創作”拉米雷斯

(L-R) — Gilberto “左撇子” 拉米雷斯 & Kareem Hackett


LAS VEGAS (二月 2, 2022) – Undefeated Toronto light heavyweight prospect Kareem Hackett (8-0, 7 科斯) 已經簽署了合同管理 3 積分管理 (3PM), which also manages 43-0 吉爾伯托“Zurdo創作”拉米雷斯, the former World Super Middleweight Champion, and today the top-ranked World light heavyweight contender.

“Kareem is a great talent that just needs an opportunity,”拉米雷斯說. “He’s been a good sparring partner for me in the past and I’m glad he can be in the same stable as I am, 3 Point Management.”

In Canada, Hackett participated in combat sports like kickboxing, 柔術, and boxing. 他有一個 40-6 amateur boxing record, including a pair of Ringside International boxing titles, as well as being crowned a Canadian National kickboxing champion.

Now a resident of Los Angeles, where Kareem trains at Brickhouse Boxing Club, in which “Zurdo” is part of its ownership. Hackett is coached by Ramirez’ head trainer, Julian Chua.

“I met ‘Zurdo’ through Julian,” Hackett explained. “We have the same trainer, 朱利安. Sparring with ‘Zurdo’ is great. Afterwards, we always talk about boxing. He has a lot of experience and he’s taught me so many different things. It also adds to my competitiveness. I try to bring different things I’ve learned from him into our sparring, and that’s been great for me.

“I work with Julian; he is here in Los Angeles. Because of the pandemic, it’s been complicated for me, so I haven’t been going home a (多倫多) is much as I used to or want to. We’re super spoiled at Brickhouse. I grew up in a classic gym, and I was used to its griminess. I can’t believe how nice Brickhouse is.”

“Kareem is a very skillful fighter that has been under the radar too long,” Chua remarked. “He’s one of the best strategists in the ring I’ve ever seen. We started his professional career together and we’ve built a brother bond. He knows he can trust my eyes in the corner like I can trust his skills in the ring.”

Hackett, 31, is a southpaw from Toronto, who has learned from sparring sessions with world boxing champions such as “Zurdo,” Peter “Kid Chocolate” Quillin, 塞爾吉奧·莫拉, Mathew Macklin, 大衛Benavidez, and Dmitry Bivol. Hackett’s 3PM stablemate, “Zurdo” Ramirez, is the mandatory challenger for Bivol, 現任世界拳擊協會 (WBA) Light Heavyweight World Champion.

“What I’ve learned most from sparring all these world champions is, unlike a lot of guys who believe they need to knockout their opponent in one round,” Hackett noted, “it’s not a one-round fight and could go as long as 12 發. I’ve learned long-term strategy. Boxing is more like a marathon-like mindset than a sprint.”

In his most recent action, Hackett stopped 2-0 Giovanni Lizarraga Garate midway through the opening round last April in Mexico.
Self-described as using a strategic violence style, Hackett is a smart, elusive, accurate, and opportunistic. Sounds as if he’s describing “Zurdo.” “We do have the same coach,” Hackett added.

Hackett’s goals in 2022 includes knocking out each opponent he faces, as well as capturing U.S. or Canadian regional titles. His first fight of 2022 is tentatively set for February 17 in Texas against an opponent to be determined.

“Kareem is a smart, intelligent fighter with a gifted physic to be a force in this game,” Ramirez concluded.

BELLATOR MMA 273: 巴德VS. MOLDAVSKY 主卡:
Ç-瑞安貝德 (29-7, 1 NC) defeated IC-瓦倫丁·摩爾達夫斯基 (11-2) 通過一致決定 (48-47, 48-47, 48-47)

Ryan Bader defends his heavyweight title:“明顯地, it was a really close fight and at the end there I’m like man that’s a toss up. I felt like I did more damage but it felt so good considering the last fight was a fight I lost. But it was a back and forth, even fight the whole five rounds. It’s just anticlimactic to go out there and have a exciting heavyweight championship five-rounder with a tough dude in Arizona. I wanted that bad!

I’m never too confident, going to judges you know. It’s the first time in my life that I was hoping that they weren’t scoring for the wrestling. I was rocking him pretty good with my punches and I was seeing everything clearly. I underestimated his clenching, his body lock, he kept stepping in front of me with this weird move and he’s stronger than I thought. I’ve never been picked up like before…but I just told myself to keep getting up and then keep with the strikes. At the end there he was just holding on and I landed 20 unanswered elbows to his head. Those can’t be ignored and so when he went to the score cards, I said who knows now…”

#6-本森·亨德森 (29-11) 打敗 #7-伊斯蘭教馬梅多夫 (20-2-1) 通過分裂的決定 (29-28, 28-29, 29-28)

Benson Henderson following the win in front of his hometown: “Fighting in front of my adopted hometown Phoenix, THE, it’s amazing. Last time I didn’t give Arizona a very good show. 這次, I thought I had a better performance so win or lose I knew that I could live with that. Just having a good performance, not a great performance but having a good performance, as opposed to having a bad performance, win or lose you always feel good after great performances. We’re seeking perfection. If you write a book, all these journalists, all these moviemakers, they want to make them part of a movie then make an amazing movie. If you want to, then you have to do your absolute best out there and that’s why I’m always after a better performance.”
“今晚, getting my hand raised is awesome. This was the first time I fought in front of my sons, my two oldest sons. 我的 6 year-old and my 4-year-old. Tonight was a great night, but they’re not all great nights so I’m learning to definitely appreciate the good ones when I have them.”

“I felt that I did enough to deserve to get my hand raised, but you just never know. Like Burt Watson always says, if you leave it to the judges, they’re going to make you cry. He is absolutely right. 所以, I definitely don’t ever want to leave it to the judges. When someone says split decision I’m like oh no, my boys are in the ring…but it was a good night, so I was thankful for it.”

亨利·科拉萊斯 (20-6) 打敗 李艾登 (10-6) via unanimous technical decision (29-28, 30-27, 30-27) - (accidental eye poke)

Henry Corrales following his victory: “That’s definitely not the way I wanted to end it here in Phoenix. The fans deserve more and that’s nothing against him, it’s just kind of a late finish and this was the final fight on my contract. This was my 15th fight with BELLATOR and my 20th win, so there’s a lot riding on this fight. I needed to go out there and put on a good performance…I tried.”

I didn’t feel like I really poked him to be honest with you and the replay was showing that it just didn’t look as serious as he was playing it off to be, but it’s the eye, so only he knows how much that hurt. He was super upset after and I was like hey big dog I didn’t poke you on purpose. I mean this is a fist fight! 但, he was walking away from the cage after and he was acting disappointed the the fight was stopped but while the fight was going on he wasn’t really fighting. His demeanor was off and he was kind of whimpering on shots and it’s like dude you weren’t really going, you were just acting.”

早晨的主頁 (16-10) 打敗 Jaleel Willis (15-4) 通過提交 (arm-triangle) 在 1:42 圓一個

Sabah Homasi following his submission win: “It’s one of the kicks I threw I just kicked hard man. I expect this after every fight but just a little swelling. It’s the same stuff after every fight man from all my kicks.”

“You know I just I take whatever they give me. I had his back, I thought I was going to get the rear naked. I don’t like to exert too much energy on something, so if I don’t have it I’m not going to force it. I’m going to take something that’s there, so I let it go and I set up a little trap. It’s something that I’ve transitioned with very well from the back to that trick, so it was there and I took it.”

“He was saying something to me earlier and if he’s saying something to me he should say it like a man. Say it with your damn chest, don’t whisper it. I forgot what he said, but I told him he was going to feel real power tonight and that was it and then obviously quick fight. I’m healthy, 我在偉大的形狀, going to get back in the gym and whenever BELLATOR lets me know I’ll give my manager the green light.”

Gilberto “Zurdo” Ramirez fights back against Dmitry Bivol’s claim of turning down a title fight

Zurdo logo.jpg
LAS VEGAS (一月 31, 2022) – Back in December, right after Gilberto “Zurdo” Ramirez (43-0, 29 科斯) stopped Yunieski Gonzalez to become the mandatory challenger for World Boxing Association (WBA) Light Heavyweight World Super Champion Dmitry Bivol (19-0, 11 科斯) who suddenly and surprisingly went dark, until he recently make an unsubstantiated claim that “Zurdo” had turned down an offer to fight him.


Bivol was quoted in a recent boxing news report, which was also picked up by other media outlets, 話, “I know for a fact that my team did offer Team Ramirez to fight me December 11 在俄羅斯, and the purse offered was about the same as what I was offered to fight him on a (金童推廣) 演出. He rejected the offer.”


“I don’t know why he’s saying they offered a fight to me,” Ramirez countered, “but he must be really confused. To be clear there was never a contract that was sent to my team or Golden Boy for a fight; unlike how a contract was delivered to him and his team from Golden Boy for the December bout. I’m confused why he continues to be a pawn and create false narratives and tries everything to hide from this fight. It’s just a matter of time before that belt comes to where it belongs.”


拉米雷斯, the first Mexican to capture the World super middleweight title, is a former World Boxing Organization (WBO) 冠軍, who earned his title shot against Bivol by winning his WBA Title Eliminator versus Gonzalez.


“After Bivol, Joe Smith is my next target since he has my belt (WBO) that I had at 168 英鎊,” Ramirez remarked. “I am the best light heavyweight out there and it’s not even close. There’s a reason why these champs are scared to call my name, but soon they won’t have a choice. I would end Smith in less than 6 回合。“


Bivol also said in the aforementioned story: “My motivation and my ambitions have not changed for a long time – I want to fight the best. I want to prove that I am the best in my division.”


Guess what, 梅德, 43-0 “Zurdo” is the best!
