The Future of Boxing 18-year-old Marco “El Tiburón” Romero Kansas super middleweight returns to ring

నవంబర్ 9, 2024 FNU47 ఒక వ్యాఖ్యను

Tonight in Portland, ME

KANSAS CITY, మే. (నవంబర్ 7, 2024) - Twenty-three-time national amateur champion, 18-year-old Kansas super middleweight prospect Marco “El Tiburón” Romero (3-0, 2 కోస్), returns this Saturday night to the scene of his successful pro debut this past June in Portland, Maine, 1,300 miles northeast of his home in Overland Park, కాన్సాస్.

A promotional free agent, Romero is matched against Orlando “El Marro” Salgado (3-5, 2 కోస్) in a four-round bout on a card promoted by Bobby Russo’s Portland Boxing Club in Portland’s Exposition Building.

“I had my first pro fight there and I love Portland people, especially Bobby Russo (who is also President of the National Golden Gloves),” Romero said. “I loved the crowd, everybody was so welcoming, మాట్లాడుతూ, ‘Go KC.’ There’s good energy and I couldn’t be more grateful.”

రొమేరో, who will celebrate his 19^వ birthday on Nov. 19, is a special boxer and young man. The last 12 months have been absolutely amazing whirlwind for him in boxing.

Because he hadn’t reached the mandatory age of 18 ఇంకా, and his weight class (సూపర్ మిడిల్వెయిట్) wasn’t included in 2024 Olympic boxing, Romero never seriously considered waiting for a shot at making the U.S. ఒలంపిక్ జట్టు. బదులుగా, his eyes were on the prize of becoming a professional fighter.

చివరి డిసెంబర్, Romero captured top honors at the prestigious USA Boxing National Championships in Lafayette, లూసియానా, followed closely by parlaying that to gold medal performance at the 2024 National Golden Gloves Tournament in Detroit.

All told, in the last 12 నెలల, he was 9-0 in amateur competition, including three at The Nationals and five at The Golden Gloves, plus three pro victories for a remarkable 12-0 రికార్డు (three pro and 8 in elite national amateur competition) during this relatively short span.

The Romero Plan has always been to close out his incredible amateur career by winning The Nationals and Golden Gloves, at which he was also named Most Outstanding Boxer, known as the Golden Boy Award, and then turn pro. Mission accomplished!

“I would have liked to have fought in the Olympics,” he explained, “because all of the good, young boxers were there, and we (U.S. పురుషులు) haven’t won an Olympic Gold Medal since Andre Ward in 2004. But I didn’t turn 18 until two weeks prior to the (Paris) Olympics and my weight class wasn’t contested there.

"ఇప్పుడు, I’m on a new journey as a pro. నిజాయితీగా, there aren’t too many differences between the amateurs and pros. The weigh-ins are right before the fight in the amateurs and the night before as a pro. I don’t have any problems fighting without headgear or with smaller gloves. To me there are really no big differences. I was born to fight!”

Romero describes himself as a heavy hitter who throws every punch with bad intentions. He’s very explosive with ring intelligence, capable of punishing his opponent by breaking them down until they either quit because they can’t take any additional punishment or get put to sleep.

In Romero’s corner is a legend in his own right, 77-year-old John Brown, who is Marco’s head trainer and manager, in the same role he played for world heavyweight champion Tommy Morrison (48-3-1, 42 కోస్) from his amateur days through his first 39 అనుకూల పోరాటాలు, 1988 కు 1993. The highlight, కోర్సు, was Morrison’s 12-round unanimous decision over George Foreman for the vacant World Boxing Organization (WBO) హెవీ వెయిట్.

Brown clearly doesn’t need to be in Romero’s corner to survive; అయితే, John knows that Marco is a special fighter with tremendous upside, and he’s vowed to get him to the top of the boxing mountain.
“I’m really excited about this kid,” Brown remarked, “and my job is to make him successful for himself and his family. Marco is an amazing kid. He has experience having boxed 10 years and 135 ఔత్సాహిక పోరాటాలు. He has good looks and a good personality, great sense of humor, speaks very well in English and Spanish, maturity beyond his years, and a work ethic that’s difficult to find in boxing.

“He’s hungry to be successful in life and knows that boxing is the vehicle to get him there. And he’s with the right people who don’t need to feed people. Anything could go wrong like injuries or illnesses, but it’s all there for him and a clear path. In terms of potential, Marco is in a rare class as part of a typical Mexican American family, tight knit and expanding. He respects everyone and Marco is a once in a lifetime talent.”

Brown knows that a champion boxer needs a supportive team in his corner. Romero has that and much more. In addition to Brown, the team is comprised of Marco’s father, Salvador, who encouraged his son to become a boxer at the tender age of seven, and he has remained with Marco through every step of his boxing journey. Brown also brought in one of his former amateur champions, Sergio Flores, who is a very successful businessman. Flores handles the tough physical training aspects required for success in the ring along with mitt work to help keep Marco’s skills razor sharp.

Fans attending this Saturday night’s show in Portland can look back in a few years and say they saw The Future of Boxing, Marco “El Tiburon” Romero, when he was just an 18-year-old prospect starting out on his mission to greatness.

LOWELL, మాస్. (ఫిబ్రవరి 26, 2016) – Western New England dominated the open class finals of the New England Tournament of Champions, part of the 70^వ annual Lowell Sun Charities Golden Gloves Championship, winning seven of 10 matches last night at historic Lowell Memorial Auditorium.

The eight men’s individual open class winners earned spots on Team New England for the 2016 National Golden Gloves Championships, మే 16-21, in Salt Lake City, ఉటా. Team New England includes two of the top ranked boxers in the country, కాంతి హెవీవెయిట్ ఎల్విస్ ఫిగ్యుఎరోతో and light welterweight Jaime Ortiz Rodriguez (repeat NE champion), both members of N.E. open class team champion from Western NE. Burlington, MA featherweight అమండా Pavone captured her sixth NE. టైటిల్.

“In the last 10 సంవత్సరాల,” explained New England Golden Gloves Executive Director Bobby Russo, “we hadn’t been on a good run. Attendance dropped off a little each year. Last year’s horrible weather killed us. ఈ సంవత్సరం, అయితే, the excitement was back and attendance was up 30-percent. There was a younger crowd and many novice boxers had good fan bases, which we need to build up every year. We had a lot of good fights and good boxers this year. Boxing is back in Lowell! We had a great season.

“Team New England will be very strong. We have a young team but many of these boxers have a lot of invaluable experience from Junior Olympics competition, from heavyweight on down. I think we have an impressive team that will do very well at The Nationals this year.”

Team champions were Western N.E. in the open class, Central N.E. in the novice class.

Three New England novice champions were also crowned last night. See complete results below as well as more pictures.

Proceeds from the Lowell Sun Charities Golden Gloves Championship go towards sending the New England Golden Gloves champions to the National Golden Gloves Championship, in addition to supporting local athletes and area gyms, the Boys & Girls Club, soup kitchens, homeless shelters, cancer funds, scholarships and many other great charitable causes.
