PITTSBURGH (Januar 12, 2022) – Für Matt „Sweet Child“ Conway geht die Reise an diesem Samstag weiter (20-2, 8 KOs) während er die Popularität des Boxens weiterhin zu dem macht, was es in den glorreichen Tagen war.

Conway titelt „Winter Mayhem“,“, das live gestreamt wird www.facebooklive.com für $19.99 (auf der Seite Cut 'N' Run Productions), gegen den staatenübergreifenden Rivalen Avery Sparrow (10-3, 3 KOs), von Philadelphia, im 12-Runden-Hauptevent für den vakanten International Boxing Association (IBA) Meisterschaft im Superfedergewicht, im Pittsburgh Shrine Center in Cheswick, Pennsylvania.

Während Boxen in Pittsburgh nie so beliebt sein wird wie in den glorreichen Jahren, als Lokalmatador Harry Greb (1913-26), Billy Conna 1934-48), und Charlie Burley (1936-50) waren bekannte Namen an der Kreuzung von 3 Flüsse, Conway hofft, die süße Wissenschaft relevanter zu machen, als sie es seit vielen Jahren gegeben hat.

„Für mich ist der Kampf um den WM-Titel ein wahr gewordener Traum, vor allem einen Titel nach Pittsburgh zurückbringen,“ sagte Conway, wer wurde noch nie aufgehalten 22 Profi Kämpfe. „Pittsburgh ist seit Paul Spadafora keine große Boxstadt mehr (1995-2014) und Sammy Vasquez kämpften (2012-2017). Ich würde gerne helfen, das Boxen wieder auf dieses Niveau zu bringen.

"Ich hoffe wirklich, den IBA-Weltmeistertitel zu gewinnen, um meinen Namen bekannt zu machen, damit dieses Kind aus Pittsburgh mehr Anerkennung und Chancen im Titelkampf bekommt.". Ich möchte die reiche Boxtradition von Pittsburgh fortsetzen. Es beginnt, wenn ich den IBA-Titel nach Pittsburgh bringe. Es gibt viele Talente, junge Kämpfer in Pittsburgh. Wir müssen nur kämpfen und (Promoter) Derek Gionta tut das für mich und andere Kämpfer. Er hilft uns wirklich.“

Der 26-jährige Conway ist voll und ganz auf Sparrow vorbereitet, deren bemerkenswerte Siege gegen andere Philly-Kämpfer waren? 29-2-1 Hank Lundy (WMDEC10) und 19-1-1 Jose Lopez (WUDEC10).

"Er ist ein harter Kämpfer, der seinen Jab benutzt und in der Lage ist, sich zu bewegen und zu boxen.",“, sagte Conway über Sparrow. "Ich werde versuchen, seine linke Hand zu neutralisieren und zu tun, was ich tue."
Conway, wer wurde noch nie aufgehalten 22 Profikämpfe bis heute, hat sich erfolgreich von aufeinanderfolgenden Verlusten in Reno und Las Vegas auf der ESPN+-Plattform erholt, um, beziehungsweise, bis 10-1-1 Francisco Esparza (SDEC8) und 17-0 Gabriel Flores Platzhalterbild, Jr. (UDEC8).

„Es war nicht schwer,“ Conway sprach davon, nach zwei Niederlagen in Folge zurückzukommen, nachdem er seinen ersten gewonnen hatte 17 Profi Kämpfe. „Ich habe gegen einen verloren 17-0 Typ in Las Vegas. Ich habe aus meinen beiden Niederlagen mehr gelernt als in meinen 17 gewinnt in diesen Kämpfen. Ich habe das, was ich aus diesen Kämpfen gelernt habe, auf meine letzten drei Kämpfe angewendet (alle Gewinne). Ich habe Hunger!"

„Matt hat im letzten Jahr alles getan, was von ihm verlangt wurde, Gehen 3-0),“ bemerkte Gionta. „Das ist ein großer Kampf für die Region. Einen staatenübergreifenden Rivalen aus Philadelphia im Main Event zu haben, ist riesig. Sparrow ist ein sehr guter Boxer und jeder, der sich mit Boxen auskennt, weiß das und wie gut das für ein Match ist.

„Einen Gürtel in einem 12-Könner aufs Spiel zu setzen reicht aus, um neben unseren treuen Boxfans auch Gelegenheitsfans zu faszinieren. Ein Sieg gegen Sparrow wird Conway viel bringen. Am wichtigsten, es wird zeigen, wie sehr er sich im letzten Jahr oder so entwickelt hat und wird ihn für größere Herausforderungen aufstellen.“

In der Zusammenarbeit vorgestellten Ereignis, Ohio leichter Ryizeemmion „The Humble Beast“ Ford (6-1, 4 KOs) steht im 6-Runden-Co-Featured-Event einem noch zu bestimmenden Gegner gegenüber.

Der beliebte Pittsburgh-Mittelgewichtskandidat Eric Lomax (4-0, 3 KOs) nimmt es mit Samuel Wildenhaus aus Ohio auf (4-1, 1 KO) in einem 6-rounder.

BETHLEHEM, PA. (Juni 28, 2017) – Miguel Cruz (16-0, 11 KOs) earned a unanimous decision to defeat Alex Martin (13-2, 5 KOs) and remained unbeaten in a welterweight rematch that headlined Premier Boxing Champions TOE-bis-Fuß DIENSTAGS auf FS1 undBoxing Champions auf FOX Deportes Dienstag night from Sands Bethlehem Events Center in Bethlehem, Pa.
After winning a split-decision against Martin in their January showdown, Cruz kept his perfect record intact by scoring two knockdowns before getting the decision in their 10-round matchup.
“I honestly didn’t feel great in our first fight and when I re-watched it, I thought Martin won,” said Cruz. “That made me train ever harder than ever to prove that I have the skills and power to compete at the world class level, and I think I did that heute Abend.”
Cruz got off to a fast start by landing a huge left hook that caught Martin and dropped him late in the first round. Martin was able to get to his feet and recover just before the bell sounded to end the round.
Martin kept trying to work on the inside but Cruz was determined to push back and consistently landed with big power shots. Another left hook in round four sent Martin to the mat again, although he appeared less effected than during the first knockdown.
“I was fighting his fight heute Abend,” sagte Martin. “I just didn’t put on my best performance. The first knockdown was a real knockdown but the second knockdown he hit me in the back of the head.”
Round five saw Martin begin to box more effectively, landing several right hands before a left hook landed low, sending Cruz to the canvas and causing referee Gary Rosato to halt the bout while Cruz recovered.
When the action resumed Martin continued to turn the tide of the fight. His movement was very effective and his success with the left hand was consistent throughout rounds five through eight.
“Martin was super tough,” said Cruz. “I didn’t think he would make it out of the second round but he definitely gave me problems. I was trying to stop him.”
Down on the scorecards because of the early knockdowns, Martin’s comeback effort came up short as Cruz was able to hold Martin off in the final two rounds on his way to earning the decision in the eyes of all three judges by the score of 96-92.
“I knew I was getting back into the fight but I’m not making any excuses heute Abend,” sagte Martin. “He won the fight fair and square, congratulations to him.”
“I trained for Martin like he was the champion of the world and that’s how I’m going to train for every fight of my career,” said Cruz. “It was a tremendous fight, I’m glad I got the victory. I just want to go back to Puerto Rico and celebrate my birthday morgen.”
Additional televised action saw Clarence Booth (15-3, 8 KOs) stop Puerto Rico’s Anthony Mercado (10-3, 9 KOs) in the fourth round of their welterweight contest.
The taller Mercado had success early in the fight while Booth tried to work his way inside and attack the body. Mercado landed a pair of clean right hands in each of the first two rounds that appeared to daze Booth.
“He was a tough fighter,” said Booth. “I needed to get loose for the first couple rounds. I was tense in the beginning.”
Kampf aus St.. Petersburg, Florida, Booth was able to weather the storm in the first two rounds and began to turn the tide in round three with a clean right hand that staggered Mercado.
Booth kept the momentum going and quickly put Mercado on the canvas with a pair of right hands in the fourth round. Mercado was able to get to his feet but eventually Booth broke through again and stunned Mercado with more right hands. The final flurry prompted referee Eric Dali to call a halt to the bout 1:30 into the fourth frame.
“I had a couple of tough losses, but now I am on a major comeback,” said Booth. “I’m so happy to have this opportunity on television and I made the best of it. My promoter Marshall Kauffman and King’s Promotions will get me great opportunities in the future.”
“Er schlug mich mit einem guten Schuss,” sagte Markt. “He jabbed and came with a right hand that I didn’t see coming. I will be back even better.”
