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

COLORADO SPRINGS, Prehër. (Nëntor 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 Olympics in Paris.

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 (Nëntor 14-26, in La Nucia, Spanjë). 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, si dhe 2020 dhe 2019 Kampionatet Kombëtare të Juniorëve.

All-around boxer-puncher is the best way to describe Phipps style in the ring. He can brawl, kuti, 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, Nëntor. 15 and can be followed along byclicking here.

Six Team USA Boxers Punch Ticket to Olympic Games Tokyo 2020

COLORADO SPRINGS, Prehër. (Maj 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, do të jetëRashida Ellis (Lynn, Mass.) Virginia Fuchs(Houston, Texas), Naomi Graham (Fayetteville, N.C.), delante Johnson (Cleveland, Ohio), Oshae Jones (Toledo, Ohio) dheRichard 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) ndarje. 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 12th 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. Kështu, 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 16th 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, peshë e lehtë (152 lbs./69 kg) ndarje. 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, por më e rëndësishmja, 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 Youth World Championships, 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 19th 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 11th i përgjithshëm, 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, Korrik 24th (JST). Continue to checkusaboxing.org and USA Boxing’s social media platforms to stay updated on more information regarding the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020.

Texas Twins Jordan & Josh Jenkins on special Mission to Write American Boxing History

2020 USA National Boxing ChampionshipsDet. 25-Prill. 4, in Shreveport, Luiziana

COLORADO SPRINGS, Prehër. (Mars 1, 2021) — Texas twins Ngas (L) dhe Jordan (R) Jenkins are on a mission to become the first twins ever to be on a Team USA Olympic Boxing Team.


They will both be competing in the elite division at the 2020 SHBA Kampionatet Kombëtare Boxing, postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic from last December to March 25 – Prill 3, in Shreveport, Luiziana.


The Jenkins twins have overcome numerous obstacles in Dallas, primarily their father’s long incarceration, subsequently getting into trouble and constantly fighting others in school. And that doesn’t even include COVID-19 restrictions that limited gym time and eliminated tournament competition this past year.


They were fortunate to have their grandfather, vonë Guilford Childress, who was the most significant male influence in their lives. “We played all sports but were getting into trouble fighting in school,” older brother by 1 minute Josh said. “Our grandfather took us to the gym, but our mother didn’t want us to box. He and my godfather, Darryl Thomas, who was also a father figure for us, trained us. Our grandfather used to come to school when we got in trouble. He was our disciplinarian. He’d take us right out of training at the gym or stop us from sparring for two weeks. He didn’t just want us to be champion boxers, he wanted us to become mature men.


“Two years ago, Greg Hatley became our trainer. Everything changed for us when we started being trained by Coach Hatley. Our styles completely changed, and we started settling down in the ring, and picking spots. Coach Hatley has had a big impact on our lives. He’s taught us how to be men. He’s a roofer and he taught us how to roof, change oil and tires, and save our money for later.”


The twins work for Amazon in a warehouse. Jordan is a brawling lightweight, while welterweight Josh is more of a boxer. Have they ever switched places and fought under the other’s name? “Everybody asks us that,” laughed Jordan. "A Jo, Josh is bigger than me.”


They’ve been competing in the elite division for the past couple of years, and both have reached the semifinals of major tournaments, but they’re ready to break out at the upcoming National Championships.


The Jenkins twins have had their training impacted. like most other amateur boxers, but not terribly, yet different from what they were used to. At first there were limitations at their gym, but once restrictions opened-up, they were able to train more often, spread out more than normal at the gym while working out, and COVID-19 tested monthly.


The dream for “Twin Nation”, coined by their grandfather when Josh and Jordan were in the seventh grade, is becoming the first twins on a Team USA Boxing Olympic Team, something late grandfather first mentioned to them. “We want to be the first twins on the US Olympic Boxing Team so kids can look up to us,” Jordan noted. “We want to prove that kids labeled as bad can still be successful growing up in an environment like ours. A lot of friends we grew up with are dead or in jail. We’ve worked had to change our lives and we’re looking ahead to Paris (site of the 2024 Summer Olympic Games)."


Their remarkable journey reaches a new level at the Nationals. They aren’t in a rush to go pro, ose. Oh, they both intend to be professional boxers, but only when they’re ready as a tandem.


“We’re humble,” Josh concluded. “We’ve had a lot of bumps and bruises. We could have gone left or right. A lot of our friends went one way, but we went the other way, dhe
became boxers.”

Boksierët më të mirë amatorë të SHBA-ve që i përshtaten jetës pa përleshje & duke pritur edhe një vit për shfaqjen Olimpike

Arjan Iseni stërvitet gjatë pandemisë

COLORADO SPRINGS, Prehër. (Prill 23, 2020) — Boksi amator, si në gradat profesionale, është mbyllur në të gjithë botën për shkak të pandemisë Coronavirus. Anëtarët e Boksit të USA po përshtaten me këto kohë sfiduese dhe provuese në të gjithë vendin.

Palestrat dhe shkollat ​​janë të mbyllura, turne të pezulluar, dhe 2020 Lojërat Olimpike Verore në Tokio janë shtyrë për një vit. Anëtarët e Kualifikimit Elitë, Ekipet e të rinjve dhe të rinjve me performancë të lartë janë në shtëpi sesa në trajnimin e Colorado Springs në Qendrën e Trajnimit Olimpik dhe Paraolimpik të Shteteve të Bashkuara.

Si janë disa nga SHBA-të kryesore. boksierë amatorë që jetojnë gjatë kësaj periudhe pa luftime?

Hicks ishte brenda një fitoreje kualifikuese për t'u bërë zyrtarisht anëtar i 2020 Ekipi Ekipi Olimpik i Boksit në SHBA. Ai po shfrytëzon pushimin, megjithëse, duke kaluar një kohë cilësore me gruan dhe vajzën e tij të vogël.



Unë personalisht mendoj se ky ka qenë një bekim i maskuar, sepse kam më shumë kohë për të përmirësuar gjërat që trajnerët e SHBA më kanë thënë të punoj. Unë jetoj në një apartament në Lansing (MY), por unë kam qenë duke qëndruar me mamanë time në Grand Rapids në mënyrë që të mund të stërvitem komodisht. Weshtë e çuditshme në një farë mënyre, por më ka marrë malli për tu grushtuar. Jam përpjekur të përshtatem me normalin e ri, por mezi pres të kthehem në qendrën e trajnimit (në Colorado Springs).

“Më pëlqen që mund ta shoh vajzën time çdo ditë për t'i dhënë asaj gjithë vëmendjen time, por asaj i mungon palestra po aq sa unë. Gruaja dhe nëna ime kanë qenë shumë mbështetëse. Unë besoj se duke pritur një vit tjetër do të më bëjë më të mirë deri në momentin kur Lojërat Olimpike janë këtu.”

Ajo ka qenë duke u stërvitur në palestrën e familjes së saj në Toledo, si dhe përfshirja më e madhe në shërbimet dhe funksionet e komunitetit.



“Unë nuk jam përshtatur me jetën pa boks, sepse boksi nuk do të largohet kurrë nga jeta ime. Familja ime / trajnerët kanë një palestër të lidhur me shtëpinë tonë në të cilën jetojmë. Boksi nuk është një sport, është një mënyrë jetese .

“Zemra më ra kur dëgjova për herë të parë që Lojërat Olimpike ishin shtyrë. Gjithçka për të cilën kam punuar, në thelb, gjithë jeta ime është në pauzë deri në korrikun e ardhshëm. Unë nuk e di se si ndihem apo si të shpreh se si ndihem. E vetmja gjë që mund të bëj është të përpiqem të qëndroj e motivuar.”

Iseni jeton në epiqendrën e Coronavirusit, Ishulli Staten, NY. Ai dhe babai i tij ndërtuan një unazë të vogël në oborrin e shtëpisë së tyre (shih foton më poshtë) sepse ai nuk mund të stërvitej në asnjë palestër.

“Veryshtë shumë e vështirë të dihet se nuk do të jem në gjendje të përfaqësoj Team USA këtë vit në asnjë turne ndërkombëtar. Ky është viti im i fundit si boksier për të rinj, por unë kam qenë duke u stërvitur shumë fort gjatë karantinës, dhe unë do të jem i gatshëm për gjithçka që do të vijë më pas.

“Shtë e vështirë të dish se nuk do të luftoj shpejt, por kjo më jep më shumë kohë për të përsosur të metat e vogla në lojën time, dhe unë do të rikthehem më i fortë kur të mbarojë gjithçka. Shpresojmë, gjithçka kthehet në normalitet së shpejti, kështu që unë mund t'i kthehem luftimeve në mënyrë aktive dhe shpresoj ta bëj Team USA si një boksier elitar.”

Patricio jeton më larg nga kampi stërvitor dhe shokët e saj të skuadrës, por familja e saj ka një palestër boksi, dhe trajnimi / sparring nuk është problem për të sepse ajo ka tetë vëllezër e motra.



“Ne jemi në karantinë dhe unë i jam përshtatur jetës pa luftë duke vazhduar të stërvitem në palestrën tonë personale me vëllezërit e motrat e mi. Stërvitja nuk ka qenë një problem për ne, sepse ne kemi palestrën tonë personale. Ne pastrojmë të gjitha pajisjet dhe palestrën para dhe pas trajnimit. Meqenëse nuk ka luftime që vijnë së shpejti, ne kemi qenë duke mprehur aftësitë tona dhe duke ndërtuar më shumë njohuri Ne kemi qenë duke fituar forcë dhe duke mbajtur qëndrueshmërinë tonë. Në fundjavë, babai im ngas një biçikletë ndërsa ne drejtojmë xhiro për të marrë dritën e diellit, dhe nganjëherë ne bëjmë stërvitje sprint jashtë.

“Familja jonë është një familje boksi që filloi me babanë tim pasi ai ishte boksier. Ai filloi të më stërviste, vetëm për mbrojtje, por filloi të bëhej serioz në 2015 kur fitova turneun tim të parë në Kansas. Të gjithë vëllezërit e motrat e mi janë gjithashtu boksierë dhe ata janë gjithashtu kampionë me shumë kohë. Unë dhe vëllezërit e motrat e mi kemi marrë një ton të familjes kohë duke qëndruar në shtëpi së bashku. Kjo karantinë na ka bërë edhe më afër. Lidhja jonë na bën më të fortë individualisht dhe si një. Jam larg trajnimit në Colorado Springs, por shokët e mi të skuadrës janë vetëm një telefonatë larg. Unë jam në gjendje të qëndroj në kontakt dhe kjo është shumë e ngrohtë. Disa nga trajnerët më kontrollojnë për të parë se si kam shkuar. Kam pritur me padurim të gjitha turnet që kam planifikuar të luftoj dhe jam i zhgënjyer që janë shtyrë, por kam më shumë kohë për tu përgatitur edhe më mirë për luftën time të radhës.”

Navarro po stërvitej në Colorado Springs për t'u përgatitur për konkursin ndërkombëtar në Bullgari, por udhëtimi u anulua dy ditë para se Navarro dhe shokët e tij të skuadrës të planifikohej të largoheshin.



“Si anëtar i Ekipit të Boksit për Junior të SHBA-ve, Unë pres çdo luftë / turneu, sepse mund të jetë e fundit ime. Kështu që ishte shumë zemërthyer kur u njoftova se luftimet tona në Bullgari dhe luftrat e ardhshme ndërkombëtare u anuluan për shkak të kësaj pandemie. Unë vazhdoj të punoj aq fort sa bëj rregullisht: duke u zgjuar në 5 ne mengjes, duke vrapuar 5-6 milje në kodrat aty pranë, natyrisht e veshur me maskën time. Unë vij në shtëpi për të marrë klasat e mia në internet nga 9 paradite-2 pasdite, gjë që më jep një gjumë 2 orë para se të drejtohem në palestrën time private. Unë jam i vetmi person që stërvitet në palestrën time çdo ditë në 4:30 ores. Sapo të shkoj në palestër, Unë filloj të shtrihem për 3 raunde (3-raunde minutash), kuti hije për 5-7 raunde, atëherë godita pesë lloje thasësh me grusht (3 raunde secili). Më pas, Unë punoj dorashka (5-8 raunde) ku unë përqendrohem në lëvizje dhe situata të ndryshme që mund të ndodhin në një luftë. Unë shpesh godas çantën me fund të dyfishtë dhe çantën e shpejtësisë për të 3 raunde. Unë përfundoj stërvitjen time në boks me 15 min. të litarit të kërcimit.

“Unë trajnoj çdo ditë për 2 orë me babanë / trajnerin tim Refugio Navarro. Kjo pandemi është paksa e rrezikshme për shkak të mungesës së hyrjes në ndeshje. Kam tendencë të ‘lëviz’ me babanë tim një herë në javë, por përvoja është e ndryshme. Pasi të mbarojë, I drejtohem gjyshërve të mi’ shtëpia (vetëm një bllok larg shtëpisë sime) të bëj forcën dhe kushtëzimin tim. Unë mbaj një maskë dhe doreza kur punoj atje. Gjyshi im është një aparat gjimnastikor dhe ka rregullimin e tij të palestrës në garazhin e tij. Unë punoj me gjyshin tim për një orë të mirë, dezinfektimi i vazhdueshëm i të gjitha pajisjeve, ta mbyll ditën time. Unë punoj me ato që kam, i cili është një bekim. Boksi nuk është një sport sezoni, ju duhet të qëndroni gati gjatë gjithë vitit për çdo gjë, dhe kjo është ajo që unë vazhdoj të bëj ndërsa përpiqem për madhështi.”

Chavez është një anëtare e vitit të parë të Ekipit të Performancës së Lartë Junior dhe kampi i saj trajnues inaugurues në Colorado Springs u tërhoq prapa.

“Përshtatja me këtë stil të ri jetese nuk ka qenë më e lehtë. Jam mirënjohës që kam familjen time, pasi ne kemi qenë duke shkuar në vrapime të përditshme dhe stërvitje në parqe. Familja ime e kupton rëndësinë e atletizmit tim dhe qëndrimin në formë, e cila është arsyeja pse ne vazhdojmë të motivojmë njëri-tjetrin gjatë kësaj kohe të vështirë. Nuk jam i sigurt kur jetët tona do të kthehen në normalitet, prandaj jam akoma i përgatitur në çdo kohë.

“Gjërat që unë pres më shumë në kampin në Colorado Springs është takimi me femra të tjera të reja në ekip, si dhe të mësuarit e stileve të ndryshme që ato sjellin. Unë gjithashtu pres të krijoj lidhje midis shokëve të mi të rinj të skuadrës dhe trajnerëve nga i gjithë kombi.”

West Point Boxing Fall Classic Winchester Senior Cadet Luca LoConte Botis to be showcased in final local boxing match

Nëntor. 10 në Anthony-së në Malden, Në masë.

BOSTON, Në masë. (Tetor 28, 2019) – United States Military Academy Senior Cadet Luca LoConte Botis, who was born and raised in Winchester (Mass.,) is looking forward to his final local boxing competition on Sunday, Nëntor 10.

Botis, captain of the West Point boxing team, will be in action in front of many friends and family members Nov. 10 at the National Collegiate Boxing Association’s (NCBA) “West Point Fall Classic,” to be held at Anthony’s in nearby Malden, Massachusetts.

Members of the West Point boxing team will compete against amateur boxers from USA Boxing New England, University of Connecticut, Trinity College, Hartford College, and the University of Massachusetts.
Botis is a 2015 graduate of Winchester High School, where he captained the school’s cross country, swimming and outdoor track teams.

It always feels nice to comeback home and fight in front of my home crowd,” Botis said. “Since this is the last local fight for me, I can definitely say there is an early sense of nostalgia.

Botis will graduate from the United States Military Academy on May 23, 2020, after which he will be commissioned as a Second Lieutenant in the U.S. Ushtri. Although he hopes to serve in the Infantry in either Colorado or Kentucky, Botis will not know his first assignment until Nov. 13, nor where he will be assigned until February.

Boxing has been an enjoyable experience for Botis for numerous reasons. “Boxing has helped me become a more humble, respectful person,” he explained. “In the boxing ring there must be mutual respect between the two opponents; no taunting, teasing, or any form of disrespect. Boxers must also learn to not feel emotional toward their opponents. I learned these lessons by fighting in or watching fights where instances as such occurred.

I will not be boxing competitive in the army, but I will continue to train, because it is the best form of exercise I have ever experienced. Regarding my post-Army life, I will most likely volunteer at local gyms to train the younger generations to box.

Unsure how long he will serve in the U.S. Ushtri, at least at this stage, Botis plans to serve more than his required five years, but less than 10 vjet. He speaks an incredible seven languages: Anglisht, Italian, Sicilian and Romanian he learned at home, adding Portuguese, Spanish and a little Hebrew at West Point.

Botis has somewhat followed the path set by his great uncle, Louis LoConte, who was a varsity athlete excelling in hockey. He graduated in 1948 with honors from West Point, where he was trained to fly B-52 bombers. The now 93 vjeç, who lives in Louisiana, served in the military until 1956. Lucas’ i madh, great grandfather, Louis LoConte, Sr., immigrated to the U.S. from Sicily, working as mason on the West Point military base. He used to speak to his son, Lou, about how much he admired young Cadets, understanding that they were special.

West Point has taught me that life is not about my own personal gains but, instead, about service to others,” Botis concluded. “It doesn’t matter what kind of service, military of civil, but what does matter is that I will help people everywhere I go. I value my relationships at West Point so much that I would not have made it this far if I didn’t have them.

A tribute to the USA Boxing Alumni Association will also be held during theWest Point Fall Classic,” including appearances by 1988 Medaljes së artë olimpike Ray Mercer, three-time Fight of the Year participant “Irlandez” Micky Ward (Lowell, MA), three-time, kampion bote dy ndarje “Gallo” Jose Antonio Rivera(Worcester, MA), and former New England amateur champion and reigning IBA super welterweight champion GregThe VillainVendetti (Stoneham, MA).
