Roy Jones, Jr. protégé Ikram Kerwat 1st female boxer to headline on UFC FIGHT PASS


BOUTS WILL STREAM LIVE ON UFC FIGHT PASS® THIS
THURSDAY NIGHT FROM CASINO DEL SOL IN TUCSON, ARIZONA
AT 10 P.m. E.T. / 7 P.m. P.T.

TUCSON, Arizona (Maig 22, 2019) – Tunisia native and mother of two, Ikram Kerwat, headlines this Thursday evening for her first time in the initial female main event streamed on RJJ Boxing on UFC FIGHT PASS®, a partir de 10 p.m. I / 7 p.m. PT, live from Casino Del Sol’s outdoor AVA Amphitheater in Tucson, Arizona.
 
Kerwat (9-1, 5 KOs), fighting out of Frankfurt, Alemanya, throws-down with 9-time world title challengerSimone DaSilva (15-12, 6 KOs), del Brasil, in the 10-round main event for the vacant World Boxing Council (CMB) female super featherweight championship.
 
Kerwat vs. DaSilva is presented by Roy Jones Jr. (RJJ) Boxing Promotions and Kerwat is trained by living legend and 10-time world championRoy Jones, Jr.
 
Ikram is an exciting fighter with awesome power and good hand speed,” Jones evaluated his protege. “She’s always looking to improve, and I look forward to her next voyage towards a world title.
 
The 35-year-old Kerwat is a former WBC International female lightweight champion, who will be fighting in the United States for the fourth time as a pro boxer. “Fighting in the U.S. was always one of my biggest dreams,” she commented. “És increïble. I already have a fanbase and they are really awesome. I like the enthusiasm and positive energy of U.S. gent.
 
This is my first main event and I can’t wait to step into the ring. To be live streamed on UFC FIGHT PASS is very important to me, my fans and, per descomptat, la meva família. My last fight was also live streamed on FIGHT PASS and it was amazing. I’m happy and thankful for that.
 
I want to give a big shout out to my family and my coach and promoter, Roy Jones, Jr., his wonderful wifeNatlyn Jones, i, per descomptat, the RJJ Promotions team for this opportunity and their kindness.

(L-R) Ikram Kerwat & Roy Jones, Jr.
 
Un professional des 2015, Kerwat first met Jones at the WBC Convention three years ago in Miami. “It’s an honor for me to lean from a legendary boxer like Roy,” she added. “He’s a boxing guru! Before I met Roy, I was a brawler, more of an aggressive fighter. Ara, I’d say I learned to skillfully box. I’ve made a lot of improvements and I developed more, boxing-wise. I grew mentally, which is the most important part in boxing and life.
 
Da Silva may have fought in nine world titles fights, but Ikram doesn’t feel that she’s at a disadvantage because of her opponent’s edge in quality experience. “My opponent is experienced, but this means nothing to me,” she remarked. “I fear nobody, but I respect all boxers who step in the ring. I do not underestimate anyone, nothing more, and nothing less. I don’t look at her, I look at myself. This is only thing I have control over. I do my job, live my dream, and I have fun doing it. I enjoy every single minute of it. This next step is very important for us. Every single fight brings me a step closer to my goal, which means that every single fight is significant for my career. Fights like this even more so.
 
Although she had only three amateur matches, including a gold medal performance in the Berlin Championships and taking bronze in the German Championships, Ikram is positioning herself for a world title fight in the not too distant future, assuming she gets past Da Silva.
 
I trained myself (com a aficionat) and that wasn’t easy for me, because I really wasn’t a trainer, but I wanted it so bad and now even more,” Kerwat concluded. “I have two kids and I used to say boxing is my third child. And it’s the oldest. I protest and love it, making sure that I progress and develop, getting better and better.

VALDEZ VS. RAMIREZARIZONA’S FIRST SEVEN-ROUND FIGHT


Bout headlines Guerra De Gallos at Casino Del Sol

Tucson, LA – Octubre. 23 – When Tucson’s Jensen Ramirez (6-2-3, 1KO) squares off with NogalesThomas Valdez (16-4-2, 6KO) at the Casino Del Sol’s AVA Amphitheater, jot will be the first seven-round bout in Arizona’s history. The featherweight bout headlines the Nov. 17 esdeveniment, dubbed Guerra De Gallos.

 

 

 

Raging Babe’s Michelle Rosado had to think outside the box when negotiating the card’s main event. One camp wanted an eight-round fight and one wanted a six. Rosado, consulting with her mentor, Hall-of-Fame Promoter J Russell Peltz, lamented the potential loss of a solid, local main event. Peltz had a solution. “Why not meet in the middle and make it seven rounds?” Rosado was skeptical. “I told him to get outta here,” Rosado said. “I was laughing, but Peltz wasn’t joking. School was in session.

 

 

 

There was a precedent. Peltz told the story ofThe Long-Haired Boxer” Edwin “Chu ChuMalave vs. Harold Weston, Jr. in a welterweight bout that took place in August of 1971 at New York’s Madison Square Garden. Malave wanted the bout to be eight rounds, and Weston wanted 10. The New York State Athletic Commission proposed that the bout be nine rounds. Malave went on to win a split decision, with two judges scoring the fight 5-4 in his favor, and the third scoring it 5-4 for Weston.

 

 

 

Rosado had her fight.

 

 

 

I bought right into it when Russell told me about the Malave-Weston bout,” va dir ella. “I knew we had a good fight, and there was something special about having a seven-round main event.Both Ramirez and Valdez’s teams agreed, and the Pascua Yacqui Commission sanctioned the seven-round bout. On Nov. 17, Tucson boxing fans will see Arizona’s first seven-round bout between two localgallos.

 

 

 

Raging Babe will host a press conference this Thursday, Octubre 25 at Casino Del Sol’s Paradiso Lounge at 2 p.m. The presser will be open to the public and will include a tribute to promoter Don Chargin.

Road Warriors Battle for Hometown Supremacia

TUCSON, Ariz. (Juny 12, 2018) – Michelle Rosado’s Raging Babe has built a reputation for quality, sold out events across the country, and she returns to Tucson’s Casino Del Sol a Saturday evening, Juliol 21, with Guerra De Gallos, a fight card that is quickly living up to its name.

 

 

 

The scheduled eight-round main event features a hometown battle between two fighters who have earned their stripes fighting tough competition on the road. After competing in other fightersbackyards and dealing with their opponentshome crowds and officials, pesos welter júnior Alfonso Olvera (10-4-1, 4 KOs) i Wilberth López (21-9, 15 KOs) will have a chance to showcase their incredible tenacity and talent in front of their own families, friends and Tucson fans.

 

 

 

Olvera, who has had trouble finding opponents, has faced top competition since turning pro. In his second fight, he went the distance with Ivan Baranchyk, currently unbeaten at 19-0. Olvera’s trail of upsets includes a 2005 unanimous decision over previously unbeaten Ryan “Vaquer” Karl and another over Chicago’s Genaro Mendez.

 

 

 

López, who knocked out Phoenix’s Keenan Carbajal in his professional debut in 2013, has gone on to fight stiff competition across the country. He was the first to take World Super Bantamweight Champion Isaac Dogboe the distance when they met in 2014. Tres anys després, Lopez upset Jose Roman (24-2-1, 16 KOs), via unanimous decision in Roman’s backyard. Lopez’s southpaw style and reach kept Roman at bay and earned him the win.

 

 

 

This is a fight between two highly skilled, local fighters who have never had the benefit of hand-picked opponents and hometown decisions,” va dir Rosado. “This fight will be one of the best Arizona has seen in years. I’m excited to give Tucson fans what could be Fight of the Year, and to bring back the pride that comes with competing to be the best in the state.

Casarez, who has a deceiving 13-6 registre, faced excellent opposition including Jamel Herring and multi-division title contender Cesar Seda, who he took the distance last August.
“I don’t know much about him besides that he’s a tough lefty that comes at you,” Silva said of his opponent.
Even with limited information about the man he’ll swap punches with Saturday evening, Silva’s confident he’ll defeat his Arkansas-based foe before setting his sights on the 135 pound division’s elite.
"(Amb una victòria) I hope to get ranked and fight the top fighters at 135. This is my time to make it happen because I’ve got the right people behind me that believe in my career.”

En paper, aquest és un grappler de llibres de text vs. combat de davanter en la seva forma més alta. No obstant això, tots dos homes aporten molt més a la taula del que representen els seus respectius antecedents en arts marcials.

Aquesta vegada es presenta en forma del destructor Hernández del nord de Califòrnia (5-0). L'home conegut com “Esponjosa” ha acabat amb tots els que s'ha enfrontat dins de la primera ronda.
L'esdeveniment co-principal de LFA 32 coronarà el campió inaugural de pes lleuger de la LFA. Spann (12-5) és un antic retador al títol del Legacy FC que buscarà capturar l'or de la LFA davant del seu públic local. “Superhome” està tenint un ritme considerable de cara a aquesta lluita després d'enviar un parell de principals contendents a la primera ronda dels seus dos últims combats a LFA 23 i LFA 27. S'enfrontarà a Nicholson (10-4) que ha estat un home en flames des que la seva carrera de quatre baralles amb l'UFC va acabar al maig.
