NEW ENGLAND TOURNAMENT OF CHAMPIONS
71st annual Lowell Sun Charities Golden Gloves Championship
2017 New England Golden Gloves Team Champion – Western New England
(pictures courtesy of Jeffrey Freeman / KO Digest)
Lowell, Misa. (Marso 3, 2017) – Western New England won its fourth consecutive New England Tournament of Champions open class team title last night in the grand finale of the 71st annual Lowell Sun Charities Golden Gloves Championship, sa makasaysayanon nga Lowell Memorial Auditorium.
Western NE had seven individual winners to earn the Bill Hoar Memorial Award as the Most Outstanding Team. Northern New England finished second with three individual winners and Central New England had two.
“Sa higayon nga pag-usab,” Bag-ong England Golden gwantes Executive Director Bobby Russo miingon, “it was a great tournament with so many good, competitive matches. We had the biggest crowd of the season turnout for the finals. The draw was done by computer, so the marches were nice and fair. I really liked the way these boxers were matched. The fans here in Lowell have been appreciated for a long time watching good fights and we plan to keep that rich tradition going.”
Western New England bantamweight Nathan Martinez, who defeated Joseph Valdez on points last night, was named the recipient of the Thomas Costello Memorial Award as the Most Outstanding Boxer.
Norther New England lightweight Liz Leddy won her sixth All-New England title with a close points win over Kelsay Kaiser, while three-time National Golden Gloves champion Rashidi Ellis (Central Bag-ong England), who is the No. 2 rated lightweight in the United States, took a decision against defending N.E. champion Lyndsay Kyajohnian.
Western New England light heavyweight Elivis Figueroa captured his third All-New England crown. His teammate, Hampton Miller (gihulagway sa ubos), mihunong Sean Gabriel in the second round to win the Rocky Marciano Memorial Award as the Most Outstanding Heavyweight Boxer.
Last night’s open-class winners qualified to be members of Team New England at the National Golden Gloves Championships for men in Lafayette, Louisiana (Mayo) and women in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida (Hulyo).
.
“New England will be sending a strong team to the National Golden Gloves,” Russo added. “We may only have three female boxers going to The Nationals, but each one of them have won national tournaments. Anyone of the male boxers on Team New England could win at The Nationals. I think Elvis (Figueroa), Yarmarco (Guzman) ug Josniel (Castro). I will offer the Team New England head coaching position to Luis Rosa from the winning Western New England team. We’ll also be brining Carlos Garcia (veteran coach from Worcester), who will be inducted into the National Golden Gloves Hall of Fame.)
Proceeds from the Lowell Sun Charities Golden Gloves Championship went towards sending the New England Golden Gloves champions to the National Golden Gloves Championship, dugang pa sa pagsuporta sa mga lokal nga mga atleta ug dapit gyms, ang mga Boys & mga babaye Club, sabaw kusina, walay panimalay dangpanan, kanser nga pundo, scholarships ug sa daghang uban pang mga dako nga charitable hinungdan.

Nagpaabut ako sa labing kadaghan nga turn out sa bisan unsang nauna 5 reunion nga gihimo kaduha sa Rival Boxing sa Las Vegas, kausa sa Jimmy's Corner sa Manhattan ug kausa matag usa sa Connecticut's Mohegan Sun ug Foxwoods Casinos.

Sa akong mga past reunion, lakip ang pinakabag-o nga gipahigayon sa Rival Boxing Store sa Las Vegas sa Nobyembre 18, kami adunay mga sama ni Roy Jones Jr., Alex “Ang Bronx Bomber” Ramos, 1992 Olympian nga si Montell Griffin, kanhi three time world champions Mike McCallum ug Iran Barkley, ug “Ang Manlalaban” ug Irish Micky Ward nga nanambong.
Lakip sa labing espesyal nga mga higayon sa akong mga reunion, naa mi ni Mike McCallum ug Alex Ramos, kinsa nagkita sa usag usa sa semi-finals sa 1980 NYC Bulawan nga Guwantis, pagkonektar pag-usab sa Las Vegas sa ulahi 2014, naa mi nila Luis Ortiz ug Lawrence Clay-Bey, nga gitigom 2015 sa Foxwoods human dili lamang magkita sa usag usa 38 MGA TUIG pero wala gani kabalo nga nag away sila sa usag usa 1977 hangtod sa pipila lang ka adlaw sa wala pa sila nagkita pag-usab ug sa NYC sa ting-init sa 2015 kami adunay 1984 Bulawan nga Guwantis sa New York City 156 pound champion ug runner up nga si Dennis “Ang Mago” Si Milton ug Jesse Lanton nagkonektar pag-usab.
Bisan kinsa nga media nga gusto nga motambong sa kalihokan sa Harlem, New York niadtong Marso 18 mas gidawat nga mahimong bahin sa kapistahan.
