TARGETING SERGEY KOVALEV TITLE SHOT IN THE FALL
“SLUGFEST AT THE SUN” RESULTS

UNCASVILLE, Conn. (Gorffennaf 1, 2018) – Returning to the ring after an 11-month layoff due to a broken jaw, Joe “The Beast” Smith, Jr. provided early fireworks last night (Dydd Sadwrn, Mehefin 30) in the latest installment in the popular “Slugfest at The Sun” Cyfres, presented by Joe DeGuardia’s Star Boxing, yn MOHEGAN Sun Arena mewn UNCASVILLE, Connecticut.

 

 

 

“Slugfest at The Sun” was taped live and will air Gorffennaf 19, 8 -10 p.m. A, ar New England Sports Network (NESN). Star Boxing’s next event, “Rockin’ ymladd”,Medi 21 at the Paramount in Huntington, NY, will also air via tape- delay on NESN.

 

 

 

Rated No. 3 a Na. 7 yn y byd, yn y drefn honno, gan Gyngor Bocsio Byd (CLlC) and World Boxing Association (WBA), Smith (24-2, 20 Kos) hurt Melvin “The Romantic Redneck” Russell (11-5-2, 7 Kos) with the first punch he landed and finished the show, two devastating knockdowns later, yn y rownd agoriadol.

 

 

 

“I hit him with a decent shot when I was walking him down and saw that I hurt him,” Joe Smith Jr. explained. “Felly, I looked to end it. I would have liked to have gotten some rust off, but I’m happy with my performance. My jaw feels great.”

 

 

 

“We’re looking to go to the top,” Smith’s promoter Joe DeGuardia Nododd. “Joe’s plan and goal has always been to be world champion. We wanted (Sergey) Kovalev before this fight, but it didn’t work out. We’re hoping to get him in the fall.”

 

 

 

“Kovalev looks great, he motivates me,” Smith noted. “I think I can take advantage of his conditioning.”

 

 

 

Coming off her historic fight this past May against the undefeated Queen of Boxing Cecelia Breakhus, who won a 10-round decision in the first female fight to air on HBO, three-time world champion Kali “KO Mequinonoag” Reis (14-7-1, 4 Kos) cruised past Mexican welterweight Patty “Las Elegante” Ramirez (11-6, 5 Kos), cyn heriol teitl y byd, winning all eight rounds.

 

 

 

“She was a survivor,” Reis commented. “There was a lot we wanted to work on, ergydion corff, jabs and more … getting more comfortable. I executed the plan my corner gave me and got the job done.

 

 

 

A Native American from Rhode Island, Reis wants a rematch with Breakhus, “I know I need to stay busy, active and remain fighting at welterweight to get the rematch,” Reis added. “I’m going to stay on her tail. I’ll be ready when it happens, I really want it to happen.”

 

 

 

In the television opener, undefeated junior welterweight “Gweithred” Anthony Laureano (8-0 3KO yn) lived up to his nickname, never taking a backwards step, as he pounded Juan Rodriguez (8-10-1 6KO yn) in the center of the ring from the opening bell through the end for a dominant six-round unanimous decision. Y 2016 New England Golden Gloves champion Laureano, who fights out of East Hartford, CT, put on an entertaining show in front of his large, loud contingent of fans. Laureano effectively used every punch in his vast arsenal to break down a tough, game Rodriguez.

 

 

 

“I thought I did well,” Laureano said after the fight, “but I’d like to see more angles. I want to see more power, hefyd. It’s there, he felt it; it’s coming. I have a long road. Frwydr Nesaf, I’d like to have an eight-rounder. We’re adding more people to the team. I hope everyone see that I’m getting better each fight. I have more tools and my discipline is there.”

 

 

 

Canol iau undefeated Wendy “Haitian Fire” Toussaint (9-0, 3 Kos) lit up an overwhelmed Andy Gonzalez (6-3, 5 Kos), battering him from pillar to post, until referee Steve Willis waved off the fight in the third round. Haiti-native Toussaint, now living in Huntington, NY, used his superior power and speed to make an impressive statement.

 

 

 

Popular South Boston southpaw Joe Farina (3-0, 2 Kos) overcame a flash knockdown during the opening seconds of the fight, using a relentless attack to defeat junior welterweight Steve Moore (1-4, 1 KO), by way of a four-round split decision.

 

 

 

Irish junior welterweight “Lethal” Larry Fryers (formerly known as Gleeson) gwella ei record i 7-1 (2 Kos) with a six-round unanimous decision over Anthony Woods (1-7-1). Fighting out of Yonkers NY, Fryers floored Woods with a left hook at the end of round two. Woods was penalized a point near the end of the final round for an intentional head butt.

 

 

 

Former U. of New Haven basketball star Cassius Chaney (13-0, 7 Kos), fighting out of New London (CT), cadw ei record diguro yn gyfan, dropping Mexican heavyweight Elder Hernandez (5-3, 3 Kos) twice before referee Willis halted the match near the end of the opening round.

 

 

 

The opening bout of the evening ended in the second round and ruled a “Dim Contest” because of an accidental head butt that left both fighters — William “Y Silent Assassin” Foster III (8-0, 6 Kos) ac Tyrome Jones (4-3-1, 1 KO) – with serious head cuts and unable to continue.

KALI REIS AND ANTHONY LAUREANO
LOOK TO IMPRESS IN THEIR “Homecoming” BOUTS AT MOHEGAN SUN ON JUNE 30TH

REIS OF RHODE ISLAND RETURNS FOR HER THIRD BOUT AT MOHEGAN SUN
LAUREANO OF CONNECTICUT RETURNS FOR HIS SECOND BOUT AT MOHEGAN SUN

UNCASVILLE, Conn. (jUNE 25, 2018) –With June 30th rapidly approaching, the hype for STAR BOXING’S “SLUGFEST at the SUN” continues to build as two of the premier fighters on the card will be making their New England homecoming. In the co-feature bout, KALI “KO MEQUINONOAG” REIS (13-7-1 4KO yn) of Providence, Rhode Island will be making her third appearance at Mohegan Sun against PATY “LA ELEGANTE” RAMIREZ (11-5 5KO yn). Adding to the excitement, Connecticut ei hun “ACTION” ANTHONY LAUREANO (7-0 3KO yn) of East Hartford is set to make his return home at Mohegan Sun in his bout against JUAN de la CRUZ RODRIGUEZ (8-9-1 6KO yn).

 

 

 

Rhode Island’s Native Warrior, Kali Reis, is no stranger to bright lights and pressure. Coming off an impressive performance on HBO against undisputed champion and #1 pound-for-pound female fighter in the world, Cecilia Braekhus, Reis looks to return home, back to New England and put her full warrior spirit out on display at the Mohegan Sun.

 

 

 

When commenting on her upcoming fight, Reis had this to say, “Fans can expect to see an even more determined, skilled, llwglyd, evolving WARRIOR in there! The fight on HBO with Braekhus was such a learning experience and I am grateful for making history in not only women’s boxing but my own personal journey as well.”

 

 

 

The last time Reis fought at Mohegan Sun was in November of last year. She is thrilled to be making this homecoming.

 

 

 

“I am excited to be back ‘home’ at Mohegan Sun June 30th,” said the Rhode Island native. “Star Boxing always has action packed fights lighting up this beautiful area. My fans love coming to Mohegan Sun. There isn’t a bad seat in the house and their hospitality is fantastic. Joe DeGuardia is keeping me very productive since we signed with him back in November. I am so pleased with the decision myself and manager Brian made to sign with them.”

 

 

 

Another local warrior on the card to watch is Anthony Laureano. Laureano earned the nickname “Gweithred” for his relentless, coming-forward fight style. If the East Hartford native is in the ring, fans can always expect an exciting show from start to finish. Star Boxing’s “Slugfest at the Sun” always brings fireworks to Connecticut, and Laureano looks to continue the tradition with his homecoming at Mohegan Sun.

 

 

 

Laureano was asked what he will provide the fans at Mohegan Sun, and his response was simply, “The same thing they always see, gweithredu. Gweithred, dyna ni. The people are coming to pay money and they are going to get what they paid for. Even in my last fight, people got what they paid for. They came to see action and to see somebody come forward. They don’t want to see nobody dancing around. I’m not saying that style is bad, I can do it too, but people like two guys who come forward and want to fight. I’m that fighter. I’m that fighter that always wants to fight.”

 

 

 

This bout against Rodriguez will mark the third time in his career that Laureano is fighting at Mohegan Sun.

 

 

 

When asked about the venue, this is what Laureano had to say, “I love Mohegan…Mohegan is my home. There is no place like it. I love the ring, everything is just so beautiful. The atmosphere, the crowd, my hometown crowd is there, and when they’re there it’s loud…Mohegan is my home, dim amheuaeth. The casino treats me good, and when I go there I feel this is where I belong. I’ve never felt that anywhere else.

DYFYNIADAU & PICTURES FROM THE NYSBHOF INDUCTEES

 


(L-R) – Ron McNair, Jake Rodriguez and Bob Duffy
JAKE RODRIGUEZ: “I want to thank Ring 8 for the opportunity for me to be here. I’d also like to thank my wife for always being there for me, and my trainer.”

(L-R) – Herb Goldman, Don Majeski and Bob Duffy
HERB GOLDMAN: “If I have made any contributions to boxing – I hope I have – I did by redefining record keeping and creating a new perspective on boxing history. I’m proud of that, but I didn’t do it alone.”
(L-R) – Joe Mesi, Jack Hirsch and Bob Duffy
JOE MESI: “I have so many people to thank for this honor. I’m a Buffalonian. There’s nobody more in favor of one New York, but it’s not. Mae hyn yn arbennig i mi oherwydd dyna Oriel Anfarwolion Bocsio Talaith Efrog Newydd. Mae hyn yn fy solidoli ac yn gwneud i mi feddwl nad bachgen lleol ydw i. Roedd anfantais enfawr yn dod o ddinas fach, nid oedd sparring yr un peth ag yng nghampfeydd Dinas Efrog Newydd, ond cefais fantais yn dod o Orllewin Efrog Newydd. Nid oedd neb yn gwella fel y gwnaethom yn Buffalo gyda 10,000, Yna, 16,00 ac yn olaf 18,000 pobl. Roedden nhw bob amser y tu ôl i mi ac rydw i'n rhannu hyn gyda nhw oherwydd bod eu cefnogaeth wedi fy ngwneud i. Fy mreuddwyd oedd ymladd yn Buffalo a pharhau i ymladd yno.
“Un o uchafbwyntiau fy mywyd oedd ymladd yn erbyn Monte Barrett ar HBO yng Ngardd Madison Square. Roedd yn un o'r diffoddwyr mwyaf yn y byd a frwydrodd am deitl y byd. Roeddwn bob amser eisiau cael fy nheitl byd yn cael ei saethu, ond ni chefais i mohono erioed. Mae hynny'n iawn, Ychydig a chwerwais am ychydig, ond allwn i ddim bod yn hapusach gyda fy ngyrfa. Y rhan orau o focsio yw'r frawdoliaeth rydyn ni'n ei rhannu.

(L-R) – Randy Gordon, Ron Scott Stevens a Bob Duffy
RON SCOTT STEVENS: “Rwy'n gwybod bod pobl bob amser yn ei ddweud, ond dyma'r gwir: Mae arnaf gymaint o bobl sydd wedi fy nghefnogi trwy gydol fy ngyrfa. Mae bocsio bob amser wedi bod adref oddi cartref i mi a heddiw rwy'n teimlo fy mod adref.
“Roeddwn yn 30, yn byw yn Brooklyn Heights, ac yn ôl yn gyrru tacsi yn aros ar fyrddau. Aeth golau i ffwrdd yn fy mhen: paffio yw camp yr isdog ac rwy'n isdog. Drannoeth es i i Gleason’s Gym – canol y bydysawd. Gwneuthum fy ffordd o amgylch yr holl gampfeydd yn y ddinas, cyfarfod hyrwyddwyr, rheolwyr a hyfforddwyr. I started making matches for promoters and then Cedric Kushner hired me from 1980-2002. Yn 2002, I got a call to work for the New York State Athletic Commission as its Community Co-Ordinator and Director of Boxing. Yna, I was made chairman and I served two terms. Heddiw, I’m extremely proud to be part of the New York State Boxing Hall of Fame.

(L-R) – Bob Duffy, Henry Hascup, Bob Goodman and Tommy Gallagher
BOB GOODMAN: “I can’t believe this crowd. In order to do what we do, the sacrifices and support you get from your family is so important and (in Goodman’s case) was for so many years. They allowed us to do what we do. All of us love boxing!”

(L-R) – Ray Mercer, Penny Allen, I'r ysgol, Clay Jenkins and Bob Duffy
AL COLE: “I thought boxing was the stupidest and dumbest sport ever. Who wanted to get punched in the face? I started boxing late. Chwaraeais o gwmpas rhai a dywedodd pobl fy mod yn eithaf da. Dechreuais focsio pan oeddwn i 20, yn y Fyddin, wedi'i leoli yn Ft. Hood. Bedair blynedd yn ddiweddarach, Roeddwn i ar y Tîm Olympaidd. Y rheswm pam oedd gen i bartner sparring gwych, Ray Mercer. Pe bawn i'n mynd i fod yn y cylch bob dydd gyda Ray, Roeddwn i naill ai'n mynd i gael fy curo i fyny, neu wella.
“Rwy'n cofio Bob Arum yn rhoi ei gerdyn busnes i mi. Nid oeddwn yn ei adnabod. Dim ond tri pherson roeddwn i'n eu hadnabod ym myd bocsio: Don Brenin, Muhammad Ali ac Sugar Ray Leonard. Doeddwn i ddim yn dilyn bocsio a’r unig reswm i mi focsio oedd y byddwn i wedi gorfod cysgu yn y coed pe na bawn i wedi gwneud hynny (yn y Fyddin). Paffio yw: ei daro, cyn iddo fy nharo.”

(L-R) – Bobby Cassidy, Jr, Jaime Drubin a Pete Brodsky
PETE BRODSKY: “Rwyf am ddiolch i'r bwrdd. Rydw i'n mynd i fod 70 a dechrau bocsio pan oeddwn i 18. Fe greodd gyfeiriad newydd yn fy mywyd. I’m so proud to be in company with guys who didn’t just talk it, they loved it. If you really love this sport, you really have to learn it. Any man who stepped in the ring, plus all the roadwork, time in the gym and sacrificing what they eat, did it to be the best they can be.
“Yn bocsio, you’re not going to win every fight, but whether a fighter wins or loses, if he gives 100-percent, he’s a winner. They work a job, run five miles day, workout at the gym, and then went home to spend time with his family. Friends and family always have your back.”

(L-R) – Pobl Darryl & Melvina Lathan
MELVINA LATHAM: “I’m speechless. It’s wonderful. Randy (former NYSAC chairperson Gordon), do you remember this story? There were only three judges and, yn anffodus, one called in sick. I was sitting at ringside with no responsibilities. Randy said I had to workheno. I said that I wasn’t licensed and couldn’t do it. Randy said, ‘Raise your right hand’, and it was on. I was thrown in there, but it was okay.
“My greatest accomplishments are my children and husband. I couldn’t ask for a better situation. A Ralph Petrillo is part of my family; he was my second in command. I also had the best officials: deputy commissioners, inspectors, judges and referees. I wouldn’t be here with without them. Bob Duffy put this whole thing together. I personally think he’s amazing. My journey continues, I am blessed.”

(L-R) – Bob and Murray Goodman
NEW YORK (Mawrth 26, 2018) – Boxing lifers Bob Goodman a'i dad, y diweddar Murray Goodman, are among 23 members of the Class of 2018 being inducted into the New York State Boxing Hall of Fame (NYSBHOF) ar Dydd Sul prynhawn (12:30-5:30 p.m. A), Ebrill 29.
The seventh annual NYSBHOF induction dinner will be held once again at Russo’s On The Bay in Howard Beach, Efrog Newydd.
A legendary boxing publicist, Murray Goodman (Bronx) brought his son into the sweet science when Bob was only eight years old. The rest was historic for the Goodmans, who are both inductees in several Halls of Fame, including the International Boxing Hall of Fame.
“This is a great honor for me and my father,” Bob said. “I wish he were alive today to be there. I’m a boxing lifer. I was eight years old going to all the training camps with my father, who was a boxing writer and sports editor for the INS (Hearst News Service) gwasanaeth. The joke is I was conceived at Grossinger’s (Catskill Resort Hotel training camp). Boxing just came into my life. My dad and I had some businesses in promotions and public relations, all different kinds of sports-related businesses, but there was always boxing.
“I’m the luckiest guy in the world. I was brought up doing the very things I loved. How many people can say that? I met and became friends with Joe Louis, Marcel Cerdan, Sugar Ray Robinson, Rocky Graziano, Rocky Marciano and so many others. I’d stay in camps for weeks. I’d get up to run with the boxers and got a chance to be around my heroes. I also got to know trainers and others in boxing and later fans. I got to know everybody. I was brought up in boxing, my whole life was boxing, 65 years in the business.”
Bob is, efallai, best known as Vice President and Matchmaker for Madison Square Garden (1985-1994), as well as a quarter-century serving as Vice President of Boxing Operations, Matchmaker and Director of Public Relations for Don King Productions. He also promoted many world champions as President of his own company, Garden State Boxing.
“I remember going away to training camps for weeks at a time,” the 78-year-old Goodman fondly remembered. “I’d take pictures, write stories every day and use my telecopier to send them to AP and UPI. I did so much being brought up un the business, even loading trucks up with chairs, y cylch, speakers and more. My father was the Publicity Director for the International Boxing Club at Madison Square Garden. I worked there when I was a teenager.
“I’m honored to be inducted into the New York State Boxing Hall of Fame with my father and so many boxing guys. They’re different from people in any other sports. One of the awards I’ve won that I’m most proud of is the James J. Walker Memorial Award for Long and Meritorious Service to Boxing (BWAA in 1960).
“I’m fortunate to have transcended various eras in boxing. It was a different world back then, we had 20-30 writers stay for weeks at training camps. I got to know old-time boxers and trainers.”

Goodman, who served in the U.S. Coast Guard from 1958-62, stays active today working with veterans’ groups. He is President of the Weymouth Township Veteran’s Advisory Board, and also active with the American Legion and part of the Honor Guard with the Korean War Veterans Association.

A graduate of Brown University, the now 80-year-old Sammartino has enjoyed two other careers as an oral surgeon and investment advisor at Blue Fin in Providence, in addition to his role as an international boxing judge since 1985.
“I first got into boxing because Joey Angelo married my cousin,” Sammartino explained. “He fought back in the early forties. Joey fought Willie Pep twice and Sandy Saddler. That’s what got me started. We used to have the great Dydd Llun Night Fights at Rhode Island Auditorium and I remember watching Rocky Marciano fight “Teigr” Ted Lowry there.”
Because he was a successful oral surgeon, Clark could take long weekends to judge fights all over the world. His first and most memorable world title fight was Vinny Paz-Greg Haughn I. Through his long career, Sammartino judged more than 400 ymladd pro, Gan gynnwys 50 major world title fights.
The list of boxers whose fights Sammartino judged reads like a Who’s Who of Boxing during the past 32 flynyddoedd: Mike Tyson, Oscar de la Hoya, Evander Holyfield, Julio Cesar Chavez, Johnny Tapia, Naseem Hamed, Chris Eubank, Marco Antonio Barrera, Mark Johnson, Wayne McCullough, Wladimir Klitschko, Gennady Golovkin, Anthony Joshua, Sergey Kovalev, Bernard Hopkins, Juan Manuel Lopez, Nonito Donaire, Acelino Freitas, Ivan Calderon, Felix Trinidad, Tommy Morrison and many more.
Sammartino, who proudly says he never missed a day of work in 40 flynyddoedd, has decided to retire, although he’ll remain a boxing fans for the rest of his life. “I started slowing down at my age, doing local shows and maybe three or four world title fights a year, mostly WBO and IBF,” Sammartino remarked. “I had a tough bout with pneumonia the past 5-6 months and that made working difficult.”
His CBHOF induction is a fitting ending and tremendous tribute to Sammartino and his career in boxing. “I’m humbled to be inducted into the Connecticut Boxing Hall of Fame,” dywedodd. “This is a great way to end my career.”
