Dmitriy Salita - Præsident for Salita Promotions

"Det er en ære at promovere dette års International Boxing Hall of Fame-begivenhed - et kort, der virkelig afspejler sportens fulde spektrum, med mestre, topudfordrer, stigende udsigter, og fremtidige Hall of Famers som Franchón Crews, en sand pioner inden for kvindeboksning."

"Jeg er vokset op i denne sport. Boksning er ikke kun mit erhverv, det er min passion. Jeg nærmer mig enhver begivenhed og matchup med en fans entusiasme og en boksers passion. Efter at have været en fighter, der er underskrevet nogle af de største kampagner og nu arbejdet som promoter i over et årti, Jeg har fået et unikt perspektiv. Jeg tror på den oplevelse, parret med en dyb kærlighed til spillet, giver mig værktøjerne til at hjælpe med at løfte sporten på nye og meningsfulde måder."

»Vi er midt i en spændende overgang inden for boksning, og innovation er nøglen. Det er derfor, vi prøver nye ting – som at samarbejde med ALL THE SMOKE – for at bringe fans tættere på historierne, personligheder, og rejser, der definerer boksning. Vores vision er at være inkluderende, samarbejdende, og at dyrke sporten for fansene og give de bedste muligheder til de kæmpere, vi fremmer."

Brandon Moore – USBA Amerikansk sværvægts titelliste

"Dette er en kæmpe mulighed. Jeg har trænet til dette siden februar. Ikke at jeg vidste, at dette ville komme, men jeg vidste, at en mulighed af enhver art ville dukke op. Jeg ved, at denne begivenhed bliver stor, og der vil være masser af legender der, så jeg planlægger at se skarp ud og klar til at tage imod Stanley Wright. Han havde lige haft en sur sejr mod Jeremiah Milton, så jeg tager ham meget seriøst. Wright er en ubesejret fighter, så jeg er nødt til at give ham hans første L."

"Jeg er selv en sværvægter af større størrelse, og jeg har kæmpet med større sværvægtere før. Wright vil bare være endnu en fyr i totempælen. Jeg skal bare flytte mine fødder, slog ham med det stik, og ser godt ud at gøre det. Han kommer for at slå hårdt, så jeg ved, hvad han kommer for at gøre. Jeg skal bare holde fokus, holde min hage nede, og bliv ved med at slå ham med det stik."

"Juni 6 Jeg kommer ekstremt skarpt ind. Selvfølgelig vil jeg have knockouten, Jeg vil det dårligt. Men det handler om at være skarp og få sejren. Jeg vil altid have knockout, men hovedfokus er at forblive smart. Hvis jeg gør det, knockoutene kommer. De kommer altid."

Franchón Crews-Dezurn – WBC og WBA Unified Super Mellemvægt verdensmester

"Jeg er fra bunden, så jeg er ikke fremmed for hårdt arbejde og at arbejde for det, jeg vil. Der kom en mulighed for at arbejde med Salita Promotions, og det gav mening. Som du kan se, kvindeboksning kommer i højsædet, og der er nu mange kvinder, der får gode muligheder. Mig selv som pioner, selvfølgelig ville jeg ind i den blanding. Salita har lige skrevet kontrakt med yderligere to mellemvægtere, så der er ingen mangel på kampe for mig her."

"Boksing er min scene. Min første kærlighed før boksning var musik. Sådan som universet havde det, boksning blev min scene og platform. Men det hele virker sammen. Jeg er en skaber. Jeg udtrykker mig selv gennem musik, boksning, og mode. Da jeg fik min professionelle debut mod Claressa Shields, Jeg gik ud til min originale musik og mit originale outfit."

"Boksing er livet. Jeg tager det meget seriøst, fordi jeg er old school. Jeg er gammel nok til at vide det, ung nok til at lære. Jeg spiller ikke, fordi du kan miste dit liv i boksning. Jeg presser mig igennem en masse ting for at få mest muligt ud af denne mulighed."

Joshua James Pagan – ubesejret letvægtsudsigt

"Der er mange fantastiske kæmpere derude i eller omkring min division. Der er et par jagerfly på min radar, herunder Giovanni Marquez. Han er meget dygtig, sej og holdbar. Floyd Schofield er en anden fighter, jeg har på min radar. Jeg vil kæmpe mod dem alle."

"Det er en velsignelse at kæmpe på dette kort. Jeg voksede op med at se Manny Pacquiao og Michael Nunn. Der er mange store navne, der bliver optaget i Hall of Fame. Jeg er spændt på at vise mine færdigheder og forhåbentlig være i deres position en dag og nå frem til Hall of Fame."

"Alle burde forvente en fantastisk præstation fra mig næste fredag. Jeg har været fokuseret og haft en fantastisk træningslejr i Puerto Rico. Jeg er klar til at bruge det hele den 6. juni."

"Jeg er fokuseret på min kamp lige nu mod James Bernadin. Jeg kan ikke overse ham. Efter denne kamp, Jeg vil tale med mit hold for at se, hvad der er det næste."

Team Ortiz moves on from disputed draw Feeling Confident Undefeated Lightweight Jamaine Ortiz Made Loud Statement

Efterlad en kommentar

WORCESTER, Masse. (April 29, 2021) – Despite a disputed draw with unbeatenJoseph “Blessed Hands” Adorno (14-0-2, 12 KOS) last Saturday night in Kissimmee, Florida, lightweight prospectJamaine “Teknikeren” Ortiz (14-0-1, 8 KOS) displayed his vast skills and courage on ESPN+.

Recovering from two knockdowns (the first from an illegal punch behind the head) and still taking the fight to the promoter’s fighter, Ortiz won six of the eight rounds but, desværre, he had to settled for an 8-round majority draw with (76-74, 75-75-75) Adorno.

Ortiz, fighting out of Worcester, Massachusetts, is the reigning WBC USNBC (OS.) Silver lightweight champion, as well as a former WBC World Youth lightweight titlist.

“I didn’t fight my fight,” Ortiz evaluated his performance. “I fought too much instead of being ‘The Technician.’ Before the fight, I thought I was the B-side fighter and wanted to please the crowd. I didn’t realize that I was on the A-side (thanks to his promoter, Jimmy Burchfield) and the betting favorite. I was fighting a Top Rank guy and felt that I had to bring the fight to him. Muscle memory, Jeg gætter, from back in the amateurs. I was fighting on his stage, so I put pressure on him. If the fight went the distance, I wanted to make sure the scoring was clear and obvious. I knew I’d break him down because I had better stamina and skills.

“I fought him too much, but I still thought I won the fight. The 76-74 score made sense. I won every round but the second and seventh (rounds of knockdowns).  I didn’t agree with the one judge who had him (Adorno) winning the sixth. He hit me behind the head in the third round and I was off balance. But the referee does his job and mine is to fight. Nothing I could do about it. The plan was to box him, going to the body, but not switch stances because it would expose me. I had to go to the body, always part of my plan, but I wasn’t ‘The Technician.’ Sometimes I switch stances without realizing it. I got clipped in the seventh round (uppercut that resulted in a standing 8 count) when I was switching for first time. I handled it like a pro. I got up and felt good. I survived the round by holding a few times and then I came back again.”

Burchfield, head of Classic Sports and Entertainment (Direktør), knows Ortiz showed that he’s somebody lightweights will have to reckon with in the immediate future.

“Jamaine’s stock went up for the second fight in a row (last November he registered a sensational stoppage ofSulaiman Segawa (13-3-1, 4 KOS), who had never been previously stopped, in seventh-round on the Mike Tyson-Roy Jones, Jr. pay-per-event),” Burchfield added. “Adorno is an animal when he’s in control of a fight. Jamaine had to take control of the fight by being the aggressor but, as ‘The Technician, knowing when to fight and when to box. The punch in the second round was, afgjort, behind the head, clearly a foul, and it was more of a slip than a knockdown because he was off balance. If that punch was disallowed, Jamaine wins the fight, even if he had lost the round. He (Emil Lombardi) is a quality ref who made a mistake. Maybe he didn’t catch it because of the angle he had, which is why I’m a firm believer in instant replay, and It would have been ruled a non-knockdown.

“Going into the seventh, I thought Jamaine led by 2-3 points having taken five of the previous six rounds. Jamaine showed the world his endurance when he came back so strong in the eighth round. If the fight had been 10-round, or even 30-sconds longer, no disrespect to Adorno, Jamaine would have knocked him out. Jamaine is the real deal. He certainly proved he’s TV friendly after his last two fights and he deserves to be mentioned among the top 135-pounders in the world. Any takers?"

Ortiz’ manager, Dick Shappy, had mixed emotions after the fight, understanding that Ortiz raised the bar, even though he fought to a draw.

“I wish he had won,” Shappy remarked, “but a draw wasn’t too bad under the circumstances. I though Jamaine won the fight outright. If not for that illegal punch in the second, he won the fight on their scorecards. It still shouldn’t have been ruled a knockdown, more of a slip, because he was going forward and lost balance. It never should have been 10-8. Adorno would have lost if they had to go into the championship rounds. Jamaine was more skilled, he did a good job.”

Count no less than former Olympic gold medalist and 2-division World ChampionAndre Ward, who served as color commentator for Ortiz-Adorno, among those impressed by Ortiz.

“Ortiz outworked Adorno, ingen tvivl, and he never backed down,” Ward commented on air. “I want to see more of Ortiz!'

As entertaining as Ortiz-Adorno was – it may have stolen the entire show – it’s unlikely that there will be a rematch.

“I don’t think he wants to fight me again,” Ortiz reported. “He said something about maybe when we both have world title belts.”

Ortiz has taken advantage of the tremendous opportunities for worldwide exposure in his last two fights. His reward will certainly come, in time, moving up the ratings as people continue jumping on “The Technician” bandwagon.

Quick video intro here:

Last weekend’s middleweight title showdown between Canelo Alvarez and Daniel Jacobs also featured the annual Box Fan Expo, held at the Las Vegas Convention Center. The amazing memorabilia on display and live amateur boxing action complemented an array of past and present world champion fighters available for quick meet and greets.

As a lifelong boxing fan, it was a shame that I only had a little over two hours to spend at the event before heading back to the T-Mobile Arena for the start of the undercard bouts. The time I was able to spend was thoroughly enjoyable. The prices were reasonable to meet these fistic legends and have a few moments to talk and take photos. The average $20 -$25 price for a photo op was significantly less than what would have been lost at the casino in a single roulette spin.

James Toney was there in a suit, proving that he can even make plaid look stylish. For a guy known for a surly nature, he was very accommodating and mentioned he will be in Philadelphia for a live show on June 7 and hopes to see me there.

In the booth next over was Hall-of-Fame broadcaster Al Berstein, who I had the privilege of interviewing in 2011. When told of my admiration of his classy work and being a fan since his days with Barry Tompkins on ESPN’s Thursday Night Fights, he was humble and appreciative.

The line to meet Roy Jones Jr. was long but worth the wait. While the time to talk with Roy was short, I was able to mention what an honor it was to meet one of the greatest performers of my generation and how I sat only a few feet from him when he was on the Creed II set.

While the line to meet the legendary Sugar Ray Leonard was exceptionally long, you could see he was truly enjoying himself, flashing that million-dollar smile and doing his famous fists-raised photo op with fans. Unfortunately, with time running short, I did not have the opportunity to meet one of my favorite fighters growing up. I would have loved to have shown him a photo when I was four-years-old, swinging away on the Sugar Ray Leonard punching bag I was given.

A few feet away was one of Sugar Ray’s most-famous rivals, the great Thomas “Hitman” Hearns. While the Hitman has shown some slowing as he has aged, he still proves to be an imposing figure, but he now replaces that fearsome glare with a warm smile.

Also coming up to meet Thomas Hearns was current IBF Super-Featherweight Champion Tevin Farmer, a fellow Philadelphian, who I’ve had the opportunity to watch grow from a 7-4-1 journeyman boxer to a 29-4-1 verdensmester.

My visit wouldn’t be complete without stopping to see “The Pazmanian Devil” Vinny Paz, always one of my favorite action fighters and charismatic personalities. Instead of a handshake, he greeted me with a big hug and expressed disappointment that my dad didn’t join me at the expo.

In the short time frame, it was impossible to meet all of the great fighters there including Michael Spinks, Riddick Bowe, Errol Spence, Anthony Dirrell, and Earnie Shavers. With it being Cinco de Mayo weekend, the lines for some of the Mexican legends wrapped around the convention center floor. Mikey Garcia, Marco Antonio Barerra, Erik Morales, and Juan Manuel Marquez all proved to be exceptionally popular. But nothing compared to the roar of the pro-Mexican crowd when the great Julio Cesar Chavez was introduced.

Attending this event was a dream come true and I could only wish I had more time to spend at the event. Everything was so professionally done and those in attendance were beyond accommodating.

Kudos to Box Fan Expo for such an exceptional event.

FRESNO, F.EKS (August 1, 2018) – Marcos “Mad Man” Hernandez (11-1-1, 3 KOS), who is advised by Al Haymon and fighting under the Premier Boxing Champions platform of fight cards, will appear on the upcoming season of The Contender on EPIX®.

 

The highly anticipated 12-episode season, from MGM Television and Paramount Television, will premiere on EPIX® on Aug. 24, 2018, på 10 PM ET/PT with Hernandez being one of the more notable middleweights featured on the series multiple fights televised on FS1.

 

Hernandez, a native of Fresno, F.EKS, trained with his father Joey Hernandez until a heavily debated split-decision loss to Kyrone “Lukke den ned” Davis made Hernandez rethink his training habits. He has since moved his camp to Southern California and begun training with Henry Ramirez. Since the move Hernandez, has since gone undefeated in the professional realm.

 

 

“I am excited that a lot of people will get to see me on The Contender,” Said Hernandez. “I loved being on the show and growing up I watched it every week. It was amazing to see Andre Ward og Sergio Mora der. Those guys are two fighters who fought at middleweight that I have looked up to my whole career.”

 

“This is an opportunity to create a better life for my son, my wife as well as my mom and dad. I am proud to be from Fresno and I want people to know where I am from and who I am fighting for.”
