Seconds Out Promotions Signs Light Heavyweight Powerhouse Marcus Oliveira to a Promotional Agreement

Kite yon kòmantè

Tony Grygelko of Minneapolis-based Seconds Out Promotions proudly announces the signing of hard-punching former world-title challenger Marcus Oliveira to a promotional contract.

 

From Menominee, Wisconsin, and of Menominee Nation, natif natal, heritage, 36-year-old Oliveira (25-1-1, 20 Ko) is also a former NABF and WBA Fedebol Light Heavyweight Champion.

The promotional agreement is a reunion of sorts, as Grygelko was Oliveira’s promoter for much of his early professional career.

 

“I used to promote Marcus, prior to him signing with Don King, and it’s truly an honor to be able to promote him again and help position him for another world title shot,” said Tony Grygelko. “It seems that with his previous promoter not actively seeking fights, and his loss to Jurgen Brähmer, that Marcus has been written off, but the truth is he is extremely focused and has a burning desire to show all his fans that he has the talent to win a World Championship! He plans to shake off some ring rust off with a couple fights and then he’ll be looking to go after some of the big names in the division, such as Andrezj Fonfara, Sergey Kovalev, Bernard Hopkins, and a rematch with Brähmer.”

 

Oliveira, who was a heavily decorated amateur boxer before turning pro in 2006, said he feels his career had been stalled by an agreement he signed with another promoter. He says he happy to now be free of that contract and back to working with someone he trusts.

 

“I was looking for someone who could get me to the next level in my career and Tony has already done that for quite a few guys, so it was an easy decision,” said Oliveira. “He’s always straight-up with me and treats me well. I have a great relationship with him. I’m very happy about this new direction.”

 

“We’re very excited to be back working with Tony,” said Oliveira’s Manager, Douglas Ward from the Underground Boxing Company. “It’s good to be working with a promoter that has our same set of goals.”

 

Oliveira joins a Seconds Out stable that also includes Carson Jones and recent world-title challenger Caleb Truax.

Tradisyon rich la ap kontinye nan nouvo nan 5th St. Gym, sitiye tou pre a 1434 Alton Street, kote avyon de gè tèt yo atravè mond la tankou Bernard Hopkins toujou tren.

 

“M 'premye wè l' fòmasyon nan la 5th St. Gym epi li te sanble ak yon amatè tipik,” Seip eksplike. “Li jete pwenson nan lajè ak pa t 'konnen ki jan yo jete yon koutpwen bon.

Li nan pasyone sou boksè, koute ak aprann chak jou. Daniele gen vitès men bon ak pouvwa. Li se yon jenn ti kabrit bèl, twò. Mwen te wè yon bagay nan l ', imateryèl, ak deside siyen l '.

Li nan deja aparan ke Danielle te amelyore fòmasyon konpetans li gen. Li nan tan, vit ak pwisan. Etik travay li, se yon enkwayab; li se premye a nan jimnastik la, dènye yo kite. Ou pa ka fè mal jenn ti kabrit sa a, swa. Nou tout kwè ke li te gen yon tan kap vini trè byen klere.”

Antuofermo, menm si, deplase li ak fanmi li nan Brooklyn soti nan Puglia, Itali lè li te 17 epi li te aprann kouman yo bwat nan Amerik.

 

“Mwen te toujou te vle yo dwe yon chanpyon nan Amerik,” Scardina di. “Sa a rèv Ameriken an pou m '. Mwen panse mwen pral gen yon gwo opòtinite nan peyi sa a yo dwe boxer nan pi gran mwen ka avèk èd nan dwa. Jan Seip se manadjè nan dwa pou m 'paske li kwè nou kapab chanpyona nan mond yo ansanm kòm yon ekip.”

DAVID LEMIEUX, Middleweight Contender

 

“I have put in the work. What you saw in Brooklyn was only 50 percent of what I can do and I feel like I can be a lot better. I want to show that in my next fight.

 

“I fear no man, I want to go after the top of the food chain. Oscar and Bernard came up fighting the best and I am of the same mind.

 

“Canelo is a younger, hungrier fighter. He is explosive. He is a tough fighter and it would be a good match up.

 

“Everyone is on the list. Mwen vle goumen pi bon an.

 

“The reason I started so young was because I was a trouble maker. I was fighting in the streets. My neighbor was a boxer and he told me to come fight real fighters. I got my ass kicked a few times but I fell in love with it.

 

“We want to make a good run at 160 and then think about moving up in weight.

 

“I have always liked power punchers and I respect others’ styles and other champions, but I never mimic them.”

 

OSCAR DE LA oya, Fondatè ak Prezidan Pwomosyon Boy Golden

 

“We are exploring every option. We can go to Montreal, we can go back to New York City, we can come to Las Vegas; that’s the beauty of David. He can fight anywhere and people will come out to watch him.

 

“He’s still growing. We haven’t seen his full potential which is very exciting. He has explosiveness and power.

 

“We will be working hand and hand with Eye of the Tiger Management. We are partners and we want the best fights, the best deals. We will be working together in the best interest for David.

 

“A future fight with Canelo is possible. Canelo wants to fight the best. Lemieux wants to fight the best. For now we want to focus on 160-pounds weight class and on Cotto, Andy lee and Golovkin.”

 

Bernard Hopkins, Future Hall nan Famer ak Pwomosyon Boy Golden kreye patenarya

 

“We got this guy [Lemieux], he is tough. I know Gabriel Rosado and he handled him easily. I know what I am looking at. I have an eye for talent and he has it.

 

“We are going to continue and show you that we will put on the best fights and give the fans quality. I’m in it to make the best fights. The ratings speak for themselves. The fans speak for themselves. Judge us by the quality of the matches you see and don’t get caught up in the ‘feelings’ of it.

 

“I want to put a call out to everyone, that is how Oscar was brought up, that is how I was brought up, fighting the best.

 

“Three things about David: youn, he signed with Golden Boy Promotions; de, he has talent in many ways, not only is he a fan favorite he is a good defensive fighter; twa, he has good looks.

 

“I am seeing now the molding of another legacy, his legacy. But at the end of the day he has an opportunity in the middle weight division, I am glad to be here with a middleweight who I feel already has a lot of respect.

 

CAMILLE ESTEPHAN, President of Eye of the Tiger Management

 

“Canelo is on the list. Cotto is on the list. Golovkin is on the list. Andy Lee is on the list. Everyone is on the list.

 

“I definitely think he is the most popular boxer, the numbers prove it. He has a lot of potential and the sky is the limit.

 

“I got a call yesterday from someone in the boxing world about how exciting it is to be working with Golden Boy and he said ‘David is like a sunshine that beams on the world of boxing’ and it is very heartwarming. It’s heartwarming to sit down with Oscar, Bernard and Eric, whom I have gotten to know very well since the Rosado fight. This is great group of people and I think that we can build something together that will make a huge impact in the boxing world.

 

“David is the one guy, that as soon as I saw him the first time in the gym, the first sit-up he did and the last sit-up he did were exactly the same, he doesn’t cheat. He has the ultimate confidence because he doesn’t cheat himself and I have the ultimate respect for him. I am very proud of him as a person.

 

ERIC GOMEZ, Senior Vis Prezidan an Pwomosyon Boy Golden

 

“After the Rosado fight, Lemieux was impressive and we began talks with Camille. People love David and it made sense. David has an exciting style.

 

“We are looking at HBO, the ratings against Rosado were some of the best all year. They are very excited about David.”

BOXING LEGEND AND FUTURE HALL-OF-FAMER BERNARD HOPKINS CELEBRATES 50

Kite yon kòmantè

Foto kredi: Greg Gorman

PHILADELPHIA (Jan. 15, 2015) – Boksè lejand Bernard Hopkins se li te ye yo anpil non – “Bouro la,” “Etranje nan” ak “B-Hop” nan non yon kèk. Kòmanse jodi a, li pral gen ankò yon lòt moniker – “50-ane-fin vye granmoun.”

 

Sa a se yon etap enpòtan enpòtan nan lavi a nan tan kap vini Hall la nan Famer. Li se selebre yon anivèsè nesans ke pou pifò atlèt vini lontan apre pou pran retrèt yo. Li se remakab ke li se pa sèlman toujou aktif, men jis mwa yo retire nan batay nan pwent fetay la anpil nan espò l 'yo.

 

Hopkins se yon surefire de sa premye bilten Entènasyonal boksè Hall nan rnome (IBHOF) lè li te vin ki kalifye. Deseni-long li kouri kòm chanpyon nan lemonn, konbine avèk inifikasyon tout nan senti yo nan divizyon an, ba l 'yon reklamasyon ke yo te middleweight nan pi gran nan tout tan tout tan. Lefèt ke li mete ansanm yon dezyèm-karyè ki wè l 'inifye limyè pwa loud tit Confer kredans Hopkins’ reklamasyon ke se li ki “pa nan mond sa a.”

 

“Mwen soti nan yon lekòl fin vye granmoun nan boksè kote ou goumen pi bon an soti la ak pwouve tèt ou,” Di Hopkins. “Mwen vle fè yon egzanp pou avyon de gè yo jenn vini ke yo nan lòd yo dwe reyisi nan espò a, ou gen pwoteje tèt ou nan tout fwa. Sa vle di nan ak soti nan bag la. Mwen te kapab fè sa jan mwen menm mwen toujou ap goumen pandan y ap tou selebre anivèsè nesans 50th m '. Sa a se kontra Bondye mwen an siksè.”

 

Pandan tout karyè li Hopkins pa janm te apiye desann soti nan fè fas a pi bon nan. Batay-pa-batay li li tankou yon moun ki nan Ki moun ki nan Hall nan Famers, chanpyon nan lemonn ak bokseur tèt-vòl. Hopkins te fè fas tout twa avyon de gè au nan IBHOF a nan 2014, gen bat Oscar De La oya ak Felix Trinidad ak jete yon desizyon yo Joe Calzaghe. Li kenbe dosye miltip pou kouri l 'nan middleweight, ki gen ladan tout rèy pi long kòm chanpyon nan lemonn (10 ane, de mwa ak 17 jou) ak pou defans yo tit pi youn apre lòt (20).

 

Nan pwa loud limyè ak nan karantèn l 'li te kontinye fè istwa. Nan mwa me 2011, Hopkins bat Jean Pascal pou WBC Limyè lour Championship Mondyal la, pase George Foreman kòm boxer ki pi ansyen janm genyen yon tit mond (46 ane, kat mwa ak sis jou).

 

Li kraze dosye pwòp tèt li de ane pita lè li bat Tavoris Cloud pou IBF Limyè lour Championship Mondyal la (48 ane, yon mwa ak 22 jou). Nan 2014 li te mete yon lòt dosye kòm li te vin avyon de gè a pi ki inifye tit mond lè li bat Beibut Shumenov ajoute WBA Limyè lour Championship Mondyal la kouwòn IBF li.

 

“Pa gen moun ki ka refize eritaj la ke mwen te kreye nan sa a espò. Mwen vrèman fyè de sa mwen te fè, ki moun ki mwen te goumen, ki jan mwen gen ase matirite sou wout la. Mwen santi mwen reyèlman bon sou yon bagay pa gen yon ka wete oswa refize plas mwen nan espò yo’ istwa,” Di Hopkins.

 

Hopkins’ espere yo kite yon eritaj depase espò a nan boksè, espesyalman kòm yon gwo estati sante ak kondisyon fizik pou kominote a Afriken-Ameriken yo ak sou-40 foul moun yo. Tou de nan Hopkins’ paran te pase lwen anvan yo gen 50, akòz konplikasyon nan dyabèt ak maladi kè. Sa a te mennen Champ la sou kwazad l 'pou k ap viv pwòp ki ba l satisfaksyon nan manje yo òganik ke li kwit tèt li.

 

“Nou sèlman ap viv yon fwa ak kò nou se tanp nou an. Mwen pa ale nan manje yon bagay ki pa bon pou sistèm m ',” Di Hopkins. “Mwen gaz tèt mwen ak enèji pwodwi manje. San yo pa sa a abitid chak jou ta kò mwen an te bay moute sou m 'yon tan long anpil.”

Nan dènye dekad la, Hopkins te kontribiye nan espò a kòm yon pwomotè. Depi l ' 2005 middleweight tit inifikasyon bout ak Oscar De La oya, Hopkins ak “Ti gason an Golden” te fòme yon patenarya ak Hopkins jan mèt yon pousantaj nan Pwomosyon Boy Golden ak ede ankouraje batay yo nan tout peyi a.

Pwòp Eric Filadèlfi a “Outlaw a” Hunter volonte gran tit nwit la la nan batay. Li pral pran sou Rene “Twin” Alvarado nan yon plum bout 10-wonn.

 

“Mwen kwè nan envesti nan sa a espò ak sa vle di kite moute nan plak la kòm yon atlèt epi kòm yon pwomotè,” Di Hopkins. “Mwen gen yon opòtinite ak yon responsablite yo avyon de gè yo ak fanatik yo nan fè sa-a ap pase nan betiz pi bon an li kapab.”

 

Si ou admire l 'pou l' travay andedan bag an, oswa wout la li ap viv lavi l 'deyò, pa gen okenn anpeche ke Hopkins se yon sèl-a-yon-kalite. Lè li evantyèlman kite espò a li pral ègr, jan li yon fwa te di:
