Special guests Micky Ward & Steve Smoger
Mars 21 i Manchester, NH
COLORADO SPRINGS, Lap. (Mars 12, 2018) – USA Boxing is hosting a special reunion, featuring two key members of the 2001 Fight of the Year, to be part of the final stop on the 2018 USA vs. Irland East Boxing Tour, Mars 21 at the Manchester Downtown Hotel in Manchester, New Hampshire.
Presented by Corona Premium, the Manchester event will start at 7 p.m. EST, and it also serves as a fundraiser for another partner of the show, Manchester PAL Boxningsklubb.
Biljetter är rimligt prissatta på $20.00 för allmän antagning, $30 för reserverade ringsidor, och finns att köpa på Seacoast Ticket Agency: s webbplats,www.seacoastticket.com, den officiella biljettdistributören för evenemanget.
Den 2001 Fight of the Year was held July 13, 2001, at Hampton Beach Casino in Hampton, NH., and it is still considered one of the greatest matches ever broadcast on ESPN. “Irländsk” Micky Ward won an incredibly entertaining, back-and-forth junior welterweight match-up with “boxing cult” hero Emanuel Augustus, by way of a 10-round unanimous decision that was much closer than the judges’ scoring indicated (98-90, 96-91, 96-94).
The high-profile win positioned Ward for what turned out to be his epic Gatti trilogy, while Augustus went on to become one of the most dangerous, upset-minded opponents in boxing. Ward and the third man in the ring that night, Hall of Fame referee Steve Smoger, will host a USA Alumni Association event Tisdag, Hav. 20 at The Shaskeen Pub & Restaurant (909 Elm St. i Manchester), börjar vid 6 p.m. OCH, and attend the following night’s (Hav. 21) USA vs. Ireland Northeast Boxing Tour finale in Manchester.
“I’m honored to be invited by USA Boxing to represent all professional officials who spent so much valuable time in the amateurs on their way to their positions in the pros,” Smoger said. “I’m looking forward to being part of everything planned.
“Anytime I spend time with Micky is enjoyable, in och ut ur ringen, and we’ve truly formed a bond. I worked six or seven of his fights, including his first in Atlantic City, around the time we were both breaking in. We spend time together every year at the International Boxing Hall of Fame inductions. He’s such a pleasure to be around. He treats people very well. His history in the ring and personality make him a big fan favorite. He’s the same guy he’s always been but he still has the heart of a warrior.”
Bernard Dunne celebrating world title anniversary
Irish Team Performance Director Bernard Dunne will celebrate the ninth anniversary of his WBA super bantamweight title-winning performance, Hav. 21, 2009, the same date as the USA-Ireland Northeaster Boxing Tour stop in Manchester.
Dunne (28-2, 15 Kos), fighting out of Dublin, fought professionally between 2001-2009. Han var 119-11 som amatör, Inklusive 13 Irish titles.
I 2009, han slutade Ricardo Cordoba i 11th round at O2 Arena in Dublin, att bli världsmästare.
USA stars out in Manchester
USA Boxing will be looking to conclude the tour on a high note with expected boxers on the show such as 2017 four-time international gold medalist Ginny Fuchs (Kemah, TX), 2017 Elite Women’s Continental Championships bronze medalist Oshae Jones (Toledo, OH), 2017 World Championships silver medalist Duke Ragan (Cincinnati, OH), 2017 World Championships bronze medalist Freudis Rojas (Las Vegas, NV), 2016 USA Nationals tungvikt jared Anderson (Toledo, OH), och 2016 Youth World Championship bronze medalist Richard Torrez (Tulare, SÅSOM).

Former Irish National Team head coach Billy Walsh Now rebuilding Team USA boxing program

Lämna en kommentar
2018 USA vs. Irland East Boxing Tour:
Hav. 12 Boston, Hav. 15 Springfield, Hav. 21 Manchester, NH

billy Walsh (centrum) is shown here receiving his Best of 2017 Elite World Championships Award

COLORADO SPRINGS, Lap. (Februari 22, 2018) – USA Boxing head coach Billy Walsh was the head coach of his native country’s amateur program in Ireland for 12 år och, ironiskt, those two squads will compete in three friendly duals next month on the 2018 USA vs. Ireland Northeast Tour.
EN 1988 Ireland Olympian, Walsh coached the Irish Team from 2003 till 2015, and he took over Team USA in 2015, capturing the AIBA’s World Coach of the Year the past two years.
USA vs.. Ireland Northeast Boxing Tour will commence Mars 12 på Bostons Royale Entertainment Complex, followed by match-ups on Mars 15 på Massmutual Center i Springfield, Mass., and Manchester, NH will close out tours onMars 21 på The Manchester Downtown Hotel. Boxning börjar kl 7:00 p.m. EST i alla tre städer.

Tickets for any of these events may be purchased online at http://go.teamusa.org/2nX3Vjc. Varje stad kommer att visa upp till 12 ändarna, each to be live-streamed, gratis, på USA Boxing hemsida (www.usaboxing.org).

“Vid slutet av dagen,” the 54-year-old Walsh admitted, “it is an unusual situation for me. But I’ve been coaching here two years and Team USA is my team now. I didn’t come here for just a few years. When I eventually leave, Team USA will have developed continuity and a solid program.
“I am a true Irishman who developed through a system that won multiple titles and I was the Irish Team captain for five years. I’m helping develop strong relations between USA and Ireland that can help both programs. Ireland has been among the best of the world – amazing considering the geographical size of Ireland — with its fighters’ great hearts along with their technique and skill. There’s a lot of talent and resources in the states, but amateur boxers have been taught to develop skills more for professional boxing. Here there is a variety of different ethnic groups: Mexicans, African-American and Caucasians, alltför. It’s truly a melting pot and each has a unique style of boxing. We are now providing coaching education for US programs to be sustainable long term.”
Boston, Naturligtvis, is known for being Irish friendly, minst sagt. The Mayor of Boston, for example, är Marty Walsh. Coach Walsh has only been in Boston once, 10 years ago with his wife for a short holiday.
“I didn’t do or get to see too much,” Walsh added. “but I know that there’s a lot of Irish history in Boston. Boston is a home away from home for the Irish. I have some friends and family there. I even joke that the mayor is my cousin. I understand that there are a lot of Irish in Springfield and Manchester, samt. I’m looking forward to going to all three cities on this tour.”
Rosters for the USA and Irish teams will soon be announced.

USA vs. Ireland Northeast Boxing Tour Kicks-off March 12 i Boston

“Fightin’ Irländsk” boxing history
Rich in Boston
COLORADO SPRINGS, Lap. (Februari 12, 2018) – “Fightin’ Irländsk” and Boston boxing has been synonymous for more than a century, since the Irish first started emigrating to the United States in general, Boston in particular, efter Great Potato Famine.
Many Irish and Irish-American boxers have fought in the Greater Boston area, some born and others resettling there. This rich tradition continues next month in a different way when the three-city 2018 USA vs. Ireland Northeast Boxing Tour kicks-off Måndag, Mars 12, at the newly renovated Royale Entertainment Complex in Boston’s famed theater district. The Boston stop, which is being presented by Budweiser, will have general admission tickets for $20.00 and a limited amount of $30.00 reserved tickets go on sale today (Måndag, Februari. 12) vid 12 p.m. OCH are available to purchase online here.
USA vs.. Ireland Northeast Boxing Tour will continue Mars 15 på Massmutual Center i Springfield, Mass., concluding Mars 21 på The Manchester Downtown Hotel i New Hampshire.
All the duals will begin at 7:00 p.m. EST och biljetter kommer att göras tillgängliga för köp under de närmaste veckorna. Varje stad kommer att visa upp till 12 ändarna, som alla kommer att livestreamas, gratis, på USA Boxing hemsida (www.usaboxing.org).
The tradition started back in the 19th century with “The Boston Strongboy,” John. L. Sullivan (Roxbury, MA), the first millionaire American athlete, as well as the first “gloves” world heavyweight champion and final “bare knuckles” heavyweight champion of the world. An International Boxing Hall of Famer, Sullivan won 38 av 38 pro slagsmål, 30 coming by knockout, with only one loss and two draws.
Another Hall-of-Famer from that era, Jake Kilrain (29-5-8, 17 Kos), lived in Somerville and Quincy, both Boston suburbs. Kilrain (1829-1899) also reigned as world heavyweight champion.
Irish boxers from Greater Boston continued this rich tradition through the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th centuries with world champions and top contenders such as welterweight Paddy Duffy (31-3,16, 18 Kos), Lawrence welterweight Mike Glover(Cavanaugh – 30-5-5, 16 Kos), and Charlestown welterweight Mike “Twin” Sullivan(28-6-16, 17 Kos), and Newton bantamweight Jimmy Walsh (33-10-20, 14 Kos)
In the 1950’s, Woburn lightweight “Irländsk” Tommy Collins (61-12, 44 Kos) was dropped 10 times at the Boston Garden by world champion Jimmy Carter, until he finally succumbed in the fourth round. His gutsy performance, emellertid, earned him an appearance on the popular Ed Sullivan Show.
Arlington heavyweight Tom McNeeley (37-14, 28 Kos), unsuccessfully fought for the world title in 1961, stopped in the fourth round of his Toronto fight versus defending champion Floyd Patterson, and McNeeley’s son, Boston-native and later Medfield resident Peter “Orkan” McNeeley (47-7, 30 Kos) famously was stopped in the opening round by “Järn” Mike Tyson in the latter’s first fight after his release from prison.
In the 1980’s, Irish boxers made their way to Boston to fight; some returned home after their careers, others relocated in the area. I 1984, Ireland-native Sean Mannion (42-14, 13 Kos), who had moved to the Dorchester section of Boston, lost a 15-round decision in Madison Square Garden to Mike McCallum for the World Boxing Association (WBA) Super Middleweight World Championship.
Steve “Celtic Warrior” Collins (25-2-1, 18 Kos) moved to Everett, later to Brockton, to work with Goody och Pat Petronelli, who handled Marvelous Marvin Hagler throughout is Hall of Fame career. Collins captured the World Boxing Organization (WBO) middleweight and super middleweight world titles before moving back to Ireland.
Collins’ younger brother, Packie Collins, also moved to Brockton to fight. He later worked with Irish heavyweight champion Kevin “The Clones Colossus” McBride (35-10-1, 29 Kos), who went on to knock Tyson out and into retirement. McBride, who still lives in Dorchester, was a stablemate of former Team Ireland head coach and current Team USA head coach, billy Walsh, at the European Games. Both were also Ireland Olympians, respektive, i 1988 och 1992.
Another Ireland Olympian, Wayne “Pocket Rocket” McCullough (27-7, 18 Kos), moved to Las Vegas from Northern Ireland. The luck of the Irish wasn’t with him in Boston in 1997, when he lost his World Boxing Council (WBC) bantamweight title at Hynes Convention Center, by way of a 12-round split decision to Daniel Zaragoza.
Arguably the most famous and popular Irish-American boxer, outside of Sullivan and Jack Dempsey, is Lowell junior welterweight “Irländsk” Micky Ward (38-13, 27 Kos), who was involved in three Fight of the Year award winners, two from his epic trilogy with Arturo Gatti, and the first boxer with more than 10 career losses to earn a $1-million purse. Ward’s life was portrayed by another Boston icon, actor Mark Wahlberg, in the award-winning movie, “The Fighter.”
Irish boxers are still coming to Boston to fight. Locally-based Murphys Boxing has promoted numerous shows in Boston featuring world-class boxers such as Gary “Spike” O'Sullivan and undefeated super bantamweight TJ “Ström” Doheny (18-0, 13 Kos), as well as undefeated rising stars such as “Sting” Ray Mayotte and New England & Massachusetts heavyweight champion Niall Kennedy (10-0, 6 Kos).
The Irish team will announce its boxers later this month after the conclusion of its National Championships.
Headlining Team USA’s roster is 2017 VM bronsmedaljör Troy Isley(Alexandria, VA). USA Boxing’s team will also include Virginia Fuchs (Kemah, Texas), who won four international gold medals in 2017, 2016 Youth World Champion och 2017 Elite Continental EM silvermedaljören, delante Johnson (Cleveland, OH), 2017 USA Boxing Heavyweight National Champion jared Anderson (Toledo, OH) och 2016 Youth VM bronsmedaljör och 2017 USA Boxning Super Heavyweight National Champion, Richard Torrez (Tulare, SÅSOM). En fullständig förteckning för varje stad kommer att släppas närmare starten av turnén.
