Pennsylvania featherweight Cornellio Phipps living the dream 2022 Youth World Championships November 14-26 in La Nucia, Spagna

Novembre 15, 2022 FNU47 Lascia un commento

COLORADO SPRINGS, Giro. (Novembre 10, 2022) – As talented featherweight Cornellio “Chada” Phipps prepares for the upcoming Youth World Championships, he admits to living the dream, and before he turns pro in a few years, the Olympic-style boxing plan for him is medaling in the 2024 Olimpiadi di Parigi.

The 17-year-old Phipps, who fights out of Oxford, Pa., first got into boxing four years ago on the advice of his father. Phipps played basketball and football, but he didn’t feel either of those were his true spot. He actually fell in love with boxing while watching fights before he even boxed, when he was seven.

“I tell people to never give up their dreams, to keep punching, and never let anybody doubt you,” Phipps said. “This feels good (preparing for the Youth Worlds). I never thought I’d get to this stage. It’s been tough but fun. I’m on Team USA representing my country.

“It starts on the big stage by me medaling at the Youth Worlds (Novembre 14-26, in La Nucia, Spagna). Being on Team USA has made a big difference for me. I’ve learned how to box against different moves, understanding the points system, and how to win. Training in Colorado Springs has helped me to succeed and also have fun learning from my new coaches.”

Phipps has already tasted success prior to the Youth Worlds. He has captured gold medals at the 2022 USA Boxing National Qualifier, 2021 USA Boxing Youth National Championships, nonché la 2020 e 2019 Junior National Championships.

All-around boxer-puncher is the best way to describe Phipps style in the ring. He can brawl, scatola, and move around well. “I’m more of a boxer than brawler,” he noted. “I can fight on the outside or lay on the ropes. I move and show angles, plus I can easily switch to southpaw (from his orthodox stance)."

Like many of his young USA Boxing teammates, the Youth Worlds will be the first international competition of his career. These championships is something he is really looking forward to for a wide variety of reasons.

“I’m excited to be fighting on my first international competition at the Youth Worlds in Spain,” Phipps concluded. “I was supposed to fight in a tournament in Bulgaria in 2020, but that was canceled due to COVID. I’m going to show my skills at the Youth Worlds to prove I belong at the top level, and that is the Olympics.”

Competition begins in La Nucia, Spain on Tuesday, Novembre. 15 and can be followed along bycliccando qui.

Jahmel Harvey.jpg — (L-R) Jahmal Harvey & Mirazizbek Mirzakhailov

**BELGRADO, Serbia – ottobre 29, 2021** – La speranza adolescenziale degli Stati Uniti Jahmal Harvey ha consegnato la prestazione sconvolta della sessione pomeridiana del quarto giorno ai Campionati mondiali di boxe AIBA a Belgrado, Serbia. Harvey ha eliminato il campione del mondo in carica dell'Uzbekistan Mirazizbek Mirzakhalilov per raggiungere il 1/8 finale.

Harvey si trasformerà 19 entro quest'anno, ma il pugile statunitense ha dimostrato di essere un talento fantastico nel pugilato. Ha avuto qualche difficoltà nel primo turno nel suo incontro di apertura, ma è riuscito a battere il belga Vasile Usturoi in una lotta frenetica. Harvey’s Irish coach Billy Walsh prepared the strategy for his second contest against Mirzakhalilov, reigning AIBA World Champion and Asian Games winner.

The Uzbek boxer is one of the top stars of the AIBA World Boxing Championships. but his US rival surprised him with his effective counter-punching and top level of footwork. Harvey exceeded all of the expectations in this featherweight (57kg) bout and eliminated the defending champion.

"Ho creduto in me stesso, my skills and on my coaches today,” Harvey said, “and I knew that I could make it. The first round was very important, and I gave in everything to take the lead on the scorecards to follow my own strategy. I have the physical condition to keep in the same level until the very end. The atmosphere is impressive in this event, and I am happy that part of it.”

Maggio 15, 2021 FNU47 Lascia un commento

COLORADO SPRINGS, Giro. (Maggio 12, 2021) — The Boxing Task Force (BTF) announced today the 49 quota places, originally to be awarded at the Road to Tokyo Americas Qualifier, that were awarded to boxers to compete in the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 this summer. The quota places included six Team USA boxers, which was based off the BTF Rankings.

“These six boxers have been staples within our program and have established themselves amongst the world’s best by their performances during the past quad,” stated USA Boxing High Performance DirectorMatt Johnson. “Now it is time for them to perform at the world’s biggest stage in Tokyo.”

Representing Team USA at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020, pending United States Olympic & Paralympic Committee approval, saràRashida Ellis (Lynn, Mass.) Virginia Fuchs(Houston, Texas), Naomi Graham (Fayetteville, N.C.), delante Johnson (Cleveland, Ohio), Oshae Jones (Toledo, Ohio) eRichard Torrez Jr. (Tulare, Calif.). All six boxers will be competing in their first Olympic Games.

2019 Elite Women’s World Championships bronze medalist Ellis will compete in the women’s lightweight (132 lbs./60 kg) divisione. Ellis won bronze at the 2019 Pan American Games to add to her BTF rankings to solidify her position in Tokyo as the second highest ranked America’s boxer and 12^th overall in her weight class. Ellis will be looking to win Team USA’s first women’s lightweight Olympic medal.

“Qualifying for the Olympics has been one of my deepest dreams,” mentioned Ellis. “I never doubt my ability. I have stopped being afraid of what could go wrong and start being excited about what could go right. Così, I embrace my mistakes and learn from them, as my mistakes have helped me improve and reach the Olympics. I don’t do easy; I make things happen. The hard work and dedication with effort and determination, I can succeed.”

Fuchs will represent Team USA in the flyweight division (112 lbs./51 kg). The 33-year-old will be looking to earn USA Boxing its second medal in the women’s flyweight division since the introduction of the event in London 2012. Fuchs brings an impressive resume to the ring, including a bronze medal at the 2018 Elite Women’s World Championships and silver medal from the 2019 Pan American Games, which places her as the second highest America’s flyweight boxer and 16^th overall in the BTF rankings.

“I have been waiting for this moment for a very long time. I am so excited I can finally call myself an Olympian,” stated Fuchs. “With all this world has been through and having to postpone the Olympics a whole year, I am proud to say I am one of the participants in what will be known as the most recognized Olympics in history. I am ready to represent my country in the most respected way and bring home the gold!"

2019 Pan American Games Graham is the highest seeded America’s female middleweight (165 lbs./75 kg) boxer in the BTF rankings, where she currently sits eighth overall. Graham earned points from her Pan American Games title, as well as her third-place finish at the 2018 Elite Women’s World Championships and top five finish at the 2019 edition. Graham, who will become USA Boxing’s first active female military member to compete in an Olympic Games, will be in contention to grab Team USA’s third straight Olympic gold medal in the women’s middleweight division.

“It feels unreal that I am going to the Olympics,” Graham stated when talking about earning her place to Tokyo. “I continue to surprise myself by finding my own limits, and then having the courage to blow past them.”

Joneswill step into the ring in one of the two newly added women’s weight classes, il welter (152 lbs./69 kg) divisione. Jones, who made history in 2019 with her gold medal performance at the Pan American Games, will look to continue making history by becoming the first Olympic gold medalists in her weight division. The 23-year-old added valuable points to her rankings with her top five placement at the 2019 Elite Women’s World Championships to finish as the top America’s boxer and seventh in the overall BTF rankings for the welterweight division to punch her ticket to the Olympics.

“I may only take up one spot, but my one spot represents so much,” shared Jones. “I’m beyond grateful for the chance to represent women, African Americans, my small city of Toledo, ma soprattutto, my country.”

The second Ohioan to represent Team USA, Johnson, extends the streak of Cleveland-native boxing Olympians to four, following in the footsteps of Charles Conwell (2016), Terrell Gausha (2012) and Raynell Williams (2008). The welterweight (152 lbs./69 kg), who first caught the attention of the boxing world with his gold medal performance at the 2016 Campionato mondiale giovanile, earned his ranking points through his bronze medal finish at the 2019 Pan American Games and top 16 placement at the 2019 Elite World Championships. Johnson was the third highest seeded America’s boxer and 19^th overall.

“My struggles are my stripes, and I wear them on my back, so that the people around me can see that even when you’re living in a jungle, you can still chase your dreams,” stated Johnson. “I am not only doing this for my city, but for my two coaches, Dante Benjamin Sr. and Clint Martin, whom I lost during my journey to these Games.”

Torrez, the highest ranked super heavyweight (201+ lbs./91+ kg) boxer from the Americas and 11^th generale, earned his place through his third-place performance at the 2019 Pan American Games and top five standing at that year’s Elite Men’s World Championships. Torrez, a former Youth World Championships bronze medalist, will be the first American boxer to compete in this weight class since 2012.

“Everyone is happy they’re going to the Olympics, it’s everyone’s dream, but I need to be there,” said Torrez. “The fire that was instilled in me before I could even walk, that drives me to be the best, the fire that has been in my family for generations, has overflowed. It has set ablaze all my second options, and it has made ashes of any other possibility besides that of success.”

Team USA will be guided by USA Boxing National Head Coach Billy Walsh during these Olympic Games.

“It is fantastic news for our six boxers who have worked endlessly for the past five years to become an Olympian,” Walsh shared. “We now focus on the next stage of the process, to become an Olympic Champion.”

The boxing competition will begin on Saturday, Luglio 24^th (JST). Continue to checkusaboxing.org and USA Boxing’s social media platforms to stay updated on more information regarding the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Giro. (Marzo 1, 2021) — Gemelli del Texas **Josh** (L) e **Giordania** (R) **Jenkins** sono in missione per diventare i primi gemelli in assoluto a far parte di una squadra di boxe olimpica USA.

Entrambi gareggeranno nella divisione elite al 2020 USA Boxing Campionati Nazionali, rinviata a causa della pandemia COVID-19 dallo scorso dicembre a marzo 25 – Aprile 3, a Shreveport, Louisiana.

I gemelli Jenkins hanno superato numerosi ostacoli a Dallas, principalmente la lunga incarcerazione del padre, successivamente mettersi nei guai e combattere costantemente gli altri a scuola. E questo non include nemmeno le restrizioni COVID-19 che hanno limitato il tempo in palestra ed eliminato le competizioni nei tornei lo scorso anno.

Sono stati fortunati ad avere il nonno, alla fine degli anni **Guilford Childress**, chi era l'influenza maschile più significativa nelle loro vite. “Facevamo tutti gli sport, ma stavamo avendo problemi a combattere a scuola,"Fratello maggiore di 1 minuto Josh ha detto. “Nostro nonno ci ha portato in palestra, ma nostra madre non voleva che ci inscatolassimo. Lui e il mio padrino, **Darryl Thomas**, che era anche una figura paterna per noi, ci ha addestrati. Nostro nonno veniva a scuola quando eravamo nei guai. Era il nostro disciplinare. Ci porterebbe subito fuori dall'allenamento in palestra o ci fermerebbe dallo sparring per due settimane. Non voleva solo che fossimo campioni dei pugili, voleva che diventassimo uomini maturi.

"Due anni fa, **Greg Hatley** è diventato il nostro allenatore. Tutto è cambiato per noi quando abbiamo iniziato a essere allenati da Coach Hatley. I nostri stili sono completamente cambiati, e abbiamo iniziato a sistemarci sul ring, e punti di raccolta. Coach Hatley ha avuto un grande impatto sulle nostre vite. Ci ha insegnato a essere uomini. È un conciatetti e ci ha insegnato a coprire i tetti, cambiare olio e pneumatici, e risparmia i nostri soldi per dopo ".

I gemelli lavorano per Amazon in un magazzino. Jordan è un leggero combattente, mentre il welter Josh è più un pugile. Hanno mai cambiato posizione e combattuto sotto il nome dell'altro? “Tutti ce lo chiedono,"Rise Jordan. "Non, Josh è più grande di me. "

Hanno gareggiato nella divisione Elite negli ultimi due anni, ed entrambi hanno raggiunto le semifinali dei principali tornei, ma sono pronti a sfondare ai prossimi Campionati Nazionali.

I gemelli Jenkins hanno avuto un impatto sul loro allenamento. come la maggior parte degli altri pugili dilettanti, ma non terribilmente, ma diverso da quello a cui erano abituati. All'inizio c'erano dei limiti nella loro palestra, ma una volta aperte le restrizioni, hanno potuto allenarsi più spesso, distendersi più del normale in palestra durante l'allenamento, e COVID-19 testato mensilmente.

Il sogno di "Twin Nation", coniato dal nonno quando Josh e Jordan erano in seconda media, sta diventando il primo gemello di una squadra olimpica di boxe USA, qualcosa che il nonno in ritardo ha menzionato loro per la prima volta. "Vogliamo essere i primi gemelli della squadra olimpica di boxe degli Stati Uniti in modo che i bambini possano ammirarci,"Jordan ha osservato. “Vogliamo dimostrare che i bambini etichettati come cattivi possono ancora avere successo crescendo in un ambiente come il nostro. Molti amici con cui siamo cresciuti sono morti o in prigione. Abbiamo lavorato per cambiare le nostre vite e guardiamo avanti a Parigi (sito del 2024 Giochi olimpici estivi)."

Il loro straordinario viaggio raggiunge un nuovo livello a livello nazionale. Non hanno fretta di diventare professionisti, o. Oh, entrambi intendono essere pugili professionisti, ma solo quando sono pronti in tandem.

"Siamo umili,"Josh ha concluso. "Abbiamo avuto molti urti e contusioni. Avremmo potuto andare a destra oa sinistra. Molti dei nostri amici sono andati in un modo, ma siamo andati dall'altra parte, e
sono diventati pugili. "

Top USA amateur boxers adjusting to life without fights & waiting another year for Olympics show

Aprile 27, 2020 FNU47 Lascia un commento

Arjan Iseni training during the pandemic

COLORADO SPRINGS, Giro. (Aprile 23, 2020) — Amateur boxing, as in the professional ranks, has been shut-down worldwide due to the Coronavirus pandemic. USA Boxing members are adjusting to these challenging and trying times all across the country.

Gyms and schools are closed, tournaments suspended, e la 2020 Summer Olympic Games in Tokyo have been postponed a year. Members of the Elite Qualification, Youth and Junior High Performance teams are home rather than in Colorado Springs training at the state-of-art United States Olympic and Paralympic Training Center.

How are some of the leading U.S. amateur boxers living during this period without fights?

**ELITE OLYMPIC QUALIFICATION TEAM**

***Joseph Hicks*** (grandi rapide, Michigan), 26-year-old middleweight, USA Ranking #2
Gold medal performances: 2019 Golden Gloves nazionali; 2017 & 2018 Qualificazioni Elite dell'Est; 3-time Eastern Elite Qualifier (2017-2019)

Hicks was within one qualifier victory of officially becoming a member of the 2020 Team USA Olympic Boxing Team. He is taking advantage of the break, anche se, spending quality time with his wife and young daughter.

“

I personally feel that this has been a blessing in disguise, because I have more time to improve on the things the USA coaches have been telling me to work on. I live in an apartment in Lansing (MY), but I’ve been staying with my mom in Grand Rapids so I can comfortably train. It’s weird in a way, but I miss getting punched at. I’ve been trying to adapt to the new normal, but I can’t wait to be back at the training center (a Colorado Springs).

“I love that I can see my daughter every day to give her all my attention, but she misses the gym as much as me. My wife and mother have been very supportive. I believe waiting another year will only make me better by the time the Olympics are here.”

***Oshae Jones***, (Toledo, Ohio), 22-peso welter di un anno, USA Ranking #1
Gold Medal Performances: 2020 Olympic Team Trials, 3-time Elite National Championships (2016-2019), 2017 Qualificazioni Elite dell'Est, 2016 Youth Open, 2014 PAL Nazionale. Internazionale: 2020 Torneo di Strandja & 2019 Pan-American Games

Jones had been on a roll leading up to the since postponed Americas Qualifier to lock a roster spot on the 2020 Team USA Olympic Boxing Team. She has been training at her family’s gym in Toledo, as well as getting more involved in community services and functions.

“I have not adapted to life without boxing, because boxing will never leave my life. La mia famiglia / coaches have a gym connected to our house we live in. Boxing is not a sport, it’s a lifestyle .

“My heart dropped when I first heard that the Olympics were postponed. Everything that I have been working toward for basically my whole life is on pause until next July. I do not know how I feel or how to express how I feel. The only thing I can do is try to stay motivated.”

**YOUTH HIGH PERFORMANCE TEAM**

***Arjan Iseni*** (Staten Island, New York), 17-year-old light heavyweight, USA Ranking #1
Gold Medal Performances: 2019 Youth National Championships, Eastern Regional Open & Youth Open

Iseni lives in the Coronavirus epicenter, Staten Island, NY. He and his father built a small ring in their backyard (vedi foto qui sotto) because he couldn’t train in any gyms.

“It’s very hard to know that I won’t be able to represent Team USA this year in any international tournaments. This is my last year as a youth boxer, but I have been training very hard during quarantine, and I will be ready for whatever is next for me.

“It is hard knowing that I will not be fighting soon, but this gives me more time to perfect the little flaws in my game, and I’ll comeback stronger when this all ends. Fiduciosamente, everything goes back to normal soon, so I can get back to fighting actively and hopefully make Team USA as an Elite boxer.”

***Shera Mae Patricio*** (Waianae, Hawaii), 17-year-old flyweight, USA Ranking #1
Gold Medal Performances: 2019 Youth National Championships & Western Regional Open; 2018 Youth National Championships & Western Regionals Open; 2017 Olimpiadi nazionali juniores & Golden Gloves nazionali

Patricio lives the furthest away from training camp and her teammates, but her family owns a boxing gym, and training/sparring isn’t as a problem for her because she has eight siblings.

“We are in quarantine and I have adapted to life without fights by continuing to train at our personal gym with my siblings. Training hasn’t been a problem for us because we have our own personal gym. We sanitize all the equipment and the gym before and after training. Since there are no fights coming soon, we have been sharpening up our skills and building more knowledge We’ve been gaining strength and keeping up our endurance. On weekends, my dad rides a bike while we run laps to get some sunlight, and sometimes we do sprint drills outside.

“Our family is a boxing family that started with my dad as he was a boxer. He started training me, only for defense, but it started to get serious in 2015 when I won my first tournament in Kansas. All of my other siblings are also boxers and they’re also multiple-time champions. My siblings and I have been getting a ton of family time staying home together. This quarantine has made us even closer. Our bond makes us stronger individually and as one. I’m far away from training in Colorado Springs, but my teammates are only a phone call away. I’m able to stay in touch and that’s very warming. Some of the coaches check on me to see how I’ve been doing. I looked forward to all the tournaments I planned to fight in and I’m disappointed they’ve been postponed, but I have more time to be even better prepared for my next fight.”

**JUNIOR HIGH PERFORMANCE TEAM**

***Steven Navarro*** (Los Angeles, California) 16-year-old flyweight, USA Ranking #1
Gold Medal Performances: 2019 Junior National Championships & PAL Nazionale; 2018 Junior National Championships; 2017 Prep Open & Western Regional Open

Navarro was training in Colorado Springs to prepare for international competition in Bulgaria, but the trip was cancelled two days before Navarro and his teammates were scheduled to depart.

“As a member of the USA Boxing Junior Team, I look forward to every fight / torneo, because it could be my last. So it was very heartbreaking when I was notified that our fights in Bulgaria and future international fights were cancelled due to this pandemic. I continue working as hard as I do on a regular basis: waking up at 5 in the morning, in esecuzione 5-6 miles in nearby hills, of course wearing my mask. I come home to take my online classes from 9 a.m.-2 p.m., which gives me a 2-hour nap before heading to my private gym. I am the only person who trains at my gym every day at 4:30 p.m. Once I get to the gym, I begin stretching for 3 round (3-minute rounds), shadow box for 5-7 round, then I hit five varieties of punching bags (3 colpi ciascuno). Afterwards, I work mitts (5-8 round) where I focus on different movements and situations that could possibly happen in a fight. I often hit the double-end bag and speed bag for 3 round. I finish my boxing training with 15 min. of jump rope.

“I train on a daily basis for 2 hours with my father/coach Refugio Navarro. This pandemic is a bit of a gamble due to not having access to sparring. I do tend to ‘move’ with my father once every week, but the experience is different. Once finished, I head to my grandparents’ house (only one block away from my home) to do my strength and conditioning. I do wear a mask and gloves when working out there. My grandfather is a bodybuilder and has his gym setup in his garage. I work-out with my grandfather for a good hour, constantly disinfecting all equipment, to wrap-up my day. I work with what I have, which is a blessing. Boxing isn’t a season sport, you must stay ready all year for anything, and that’s what I continue to do as I strive for greatness.”

***Fernanda Chavez*** (Dallas, Texas), 14-year-old bantamweight, USA Ranking #2
Gold Medal Performances: 2019 Junior Open; 2018 Prep Open & Eastern Regional

Chavez is a first-year member of the Junior High Performance Team and her inaugural training camp in Colorado Springs was pushed back.

“Adapting to this new lifestyle hasn’t been the easiest. I’m thankful I have my family, as we’ve been going on daily runs and workouts at parks. My family understands the importance of my athleticism and staying fit, which is why we continue to motivate each other during this tough time. I’m not sure when our lives will return to normal, which is why I’m still prepared at all times.

“The things I’m looking forward to most at camp in Colorado Springs is meeting other junior females on the team, as well as learning the different styles they bring. I also look forward to creating bonds between my new teammates and coaches from across the nation.”
