Paul Kroll and Marquis Taylor Battle to a Spirited Split Draw in Telecast Opener on SHOWTIME®

KlickenHIER für Fotos von Amanda Westcott / Showtime

ORLANDO, Fla. - Februar 18, 2022 - Jamaine “The Technician”Ortiz used his superior hand and foot speed to dance and dish out punishment against gameNahir Albright to win the vacant NABF title in the main event ofShoBox: Die neue Generation as part of an action-packed doubleheader onSHOW TIME Freitagabend im Caribe Royale Resort.

Ortiz (15-0-1, 8 KOs) sailed to a unanimous decision win by scores of 98-92, 97-93 und 97-93 to remain undefeated and stamp his name as a player in a loaded lightweight division. KlickenHIER to watch video of the decision.

Whether he was walking Albright (14-2, 7 KOs) down or punching on the move, Ortiz produced a dominant and flashy performance over 10 Runde, wowing a crowd that included former light heavyweight championAntonio Tarver and San Francisco 49ers All-Pro offensive linemanTrent Williams. KlickenHIER to watch highlights of the ninth round.

After he was dropped twice in his last fight against Joseph Adorno in a majority draw in April, Ortiz looked more poised and patient in the early going, picking his punches carefully and hitting and moving while avoiding Albright’s big right hand.

As the difference in speed became apparent, Ortiz began to open up in the second after he scored with a big left that caught Albright clean. Von diesem Punkt an, Ortiz maintained control of the distance and pace, leaping at Albright with lefts and rights or peppering him with jabs.

“I think I showed maturity in this fight,“Ortiz sagte. “I was cautious in the beginning. I didn’t want to get caught like I did in my last fight. After I took the first couple rounds to feel him out, I saw that I could do whatever I wanted in there and I started to get into a groove and let my punches go.”

Ortiz, von Worcester, Mass., gelandet 48% (103 von 216) seiner Macht Schläge, verglichen mit 41% for Albright (88 von 216), but it was his body punching that produced the biggest numerical disparity. Ortiz out-landed Albright 42 bis 4 to the body, showcasing that aspect of his game in the fifth round when he found a home for several thudding body shots. Afterward, Ortiz called out the power-puncher Rolly Romero (14-0, 12 KOs) as the opponent he wants to face next.

“He’s got a big name,“Ortiz sagte. “He’s a big puncher, but he can’t box. That would be an easy fight. My goal is to have a title eliminator and to win a title. Danach, my goal is to be one of the top pound-for-pound fighters in the sport.”

Ortiz’s signature round was the sixth, when he showcased his footwork and speed, darting around the ring and landing rights and lefts. He connected with an overhand right on the run while New Jersey’s Albright was on the ropes and then landed several unanswered right uppercuts to punctuate the round.

Albright, an aspiring R&B singer, showed his toughness and resilience by trying to match Ortiz’s output each round. He had success in spurts, but it was fleeting. In the ninth, he landed a pair of overhand rights, only for Ortiz to use his footwork to avoid taking further punishment.

“He was the better man in there tonight,” an emotional Albright said. “It was a great experience and I saw a different look. I know that I have all the talent and ability, and this will not deter me at all from being a world champion.”

In der Sendung Opener, Paul Kroll undMarquis Taylor fought to a spirited split draw in their eight-round super welterweight bout by scores of 77-75 for Kroll, 80-72 for Taylor and 76-76 in a verdict that frustrated both fighters. KlickenHIER to watch video of the decision.

Before the bout, Philly’s Kroll spoke of the little respect he had for Taylor’s power, since Taylor only had one knockout on his ledger, but it was Taylor who was the harder and busier puncher in the contest, relying on a check left hook that continually found its mark.

Houston’s Taylor connected on 34% of his power punches compared to 29% for Kroll, outscoring him 98 bis 71 and out-landing him 109 bis 84 in Gesamtschlägen.

Taylor (12-1-2, 1 KO) staggered Kroll (9-0-1, 6 KOs) in the sixth with the biggest punch of the fight, a left that caused Kroll to fall against the ropes as Taylor followed up with digging shots to the body.

“I thought I had it for sure,Sagte Taylor. “I thought I had the fight in the bag. I don’t know what the judges saw. I was being the aggressor and I landed the clearer shots. I thought I really had that fight with no questions. I don’t know what else I could’ve done.”

The busier and fresher fighter, Taylor didn’t sit in between rounds and at times had to be restrained by his trainer from running to the middle of the ring before his minute of rest was up.

Normally a patient and technically sound fighter, Kroll, a former amateur star who won the 2016 U.S.. Olympischen Boxen Trials, went after Taylor in the first, throwing a wild right hand that continually missed its mark.

Kroll fought well in spurts and with urgency in the eighth and final round, but Taylor was ready for him.

“I thought I won the fight 5-3,” Kroll said. “I took the beginning and the end. He won a couple rounds in the middle. We can run it back on the next ShoBox. I am ready to fight him again. He was awkward, but I outworked him on the inside. I won that fight.”

International Boxing Hall of FameBarry Tompkins nannte die Aktion vom Ring neben dem ehemaligen WeltmeisterRaul Marquez und renommierte KampfsportbehördeBrian Campbell der als Experte Analysten dienen. Hall of FameSteve Farhood was the unofficial scorer. Der Executive Producer warGordon Hall mitRich Gaughan Herstellung undRick Phillips Lenkung.

BROOKLYN – Februar 18, 2022 - Ungeschlagen aufgehender Stern Chris „Primetime“ Colbert hielt am Freitag ein Medientraining in seiner Heimatstadt Brooklyn ab, während er sich darauf vorbereitet, gegen den ungeschlagenen dominikanischen Olympioniken anzutreten Hector Garcia im SHOWTIME Main Event Samstag, Februar 26 in einem Premier Boxing Champions-Event von The Chelsea im The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas.

Kolbert vs. Garcia führt ein gestapeltes SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING an® Tripleheader beginnend bei 10 p.m. ET / 7 p.m. PT, wenn die ungeschlagenen Kämpfer in einem WBA-Titel-Eliminator im Superfedergewicht gegeneinander antreten.

Karten für das Live-Event, die von TGB Promotions gefördert wird, sind ab sofort im Angebot und können über gekauft werden Ticketmaster.com.

Der 25-jährige Colbert hielt das Training bei den NYC Cops ab & Kids Boxing Club, wo er seine Boxreise begann, aus seinen dekorierten Tagen in den Reihen der Amateure, zu seiner aufkeimenden Profikarriere. Hier ist, was Colbert über das Trainingslager zu sagen hatte, sein Februar 26 Gegner und mehr:

CHRIS COLBERT

„Er wird aus erster Hand erfahren, wie gefährlich ich bin. Ich mache mir keine Sorgen um alles, was er in den Ring bringt. Ich liebe es, wenn Leute denken, dass Macht sie gegen mich retten wird.

„Ich muss dem Namen ‚Primetime‘ nicht gerecht werden, Das bin nur ich. Das bin ich. Die Leute wissen, wer ich bin. Ich habe nur einen Job zu erledigen und ich werde ihn im Februar erledigen 26.

„Ich weiß nicht wirklich etwas über Garcia. Ich weiß, dass er zwei Arme und zwei Beine hat, und darüber hinaus erwarte ich, dass er sein A-Game bringt, weil er gegen mich muss. Auf keinen Fall lasse ich ihn als späten Ersatz kommen und mich schlagen.

„Ich habe den größten Teil des Trainingslagers mit Trainer Aureliano Sosa und Herman Caicedo bei Caicedo Sports in Miami verbracht, Aber mit dem Gegnerwechsel habe ich mich entschieden, zurück in mein Fitnessstudio in Brooklyn zu kommen, weil wir hier oben drei Linkshänder im Fitnessstudio haben.

„Der einzige wirkliche Unterschied für dieses Camp ist, dass ich jetzt einen Ernährungsberater habe, Also haben sie mich auf eine strenge Diät gebracht und ich bin einfach konzentrierter als je zuvor. Das andere an diesem Lager ist, dass ich ursprünglich Mitte Dezember kämpfen sollte, aber dann wurde es auf jetzt verschoben. Also gingen wir im Grunde durch zwei Lager. Insgesamt war es ein 14-wöchiges Camp.

„Wir sind hauptsächlich wegen des Wetters nach Miami gefahren, und wegen unserer Verbindung zu Coach Herman. Ich hasse die Kälte im Norden. Und dann haben sie unten in Miami auch viele gute Sparringspartner für mich und sie haben mir gute Arbeit gegeben, um mich auf diesen Kampf vorzubereiten.

„Mir geht es nur darum, Anpassungen vorzunehmen. Ich hatte schon einmal gegnerische Auswechslungen, und ich weiß, dass dies Teil des Geschäfts des Boxens ist. Ich muss nur mit den Schlägen rollen, mach Limonade aus diesen Zitronen und mache das, was ich im Februar mache 26.

„Ich kämpfe nicht um die Gürtel. Ich kämpfe für das Geld und mein Vermächtnis. Ich habe nächsten Samstag noch eine Aufgabe zu erledigen. Ich werde immer noch bezahlt. Nachdem ich gewonnen habe, Ich werde bald wieder um den Gürtel kämpfen und für diesen Kampf wieder bezahlt werden.“

LAS VEGAS (Februar 17, 2022) – Unbesiegter Dominikaner bei den Olympischen Spielen Hector García wird versuchen, seinen Meisterschaftsträumen einen Schritt näher zu kommen, wenn er gegen einen ungeschlagenen Kollegen antritt Chris „Primetime“ Colbert in einem 12-Runden-WBA-Weltmeistertitel im Superfedergewicht als Headliner live am SHOWTIME-Samstag, Februar 26 in einem Premier Boxing Champions-Event von The Chelsea im The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas.

García trat gegen Colbert an, nachdem sich WBA-Champion im Superfedergewicht, Roger Gutiérrez, aufgrund eines positiven COVID-19-Tests zurückgezogen hatte. Trotz der plötzlichen Veränderung, Der 30-Jährige ist bereit für das, was der überaus talentierte Colbert in den Ring bringt.

„Chris Colbert halte ich nicht für besonders gefährlich,sagte García. „Ich habe ihn schon früher kämpfen sehen und ich weiß, dass ich agil sein muss, da er sehr schnell ist. Ich habe hier in Las Vegas mit vielen Trainingspartnern trainiert, die einen ähnlichen Stil wie er haben, und das sollte mir helfen, mich anzupassen, sobald wir im Kampf sind.

Ausgebildet von dem renommierten Coach Ismael Salas in Las Vegas, García hat mit Champions und Top-Konkurrenten trainiert, darunter Devin Haney und Rolando „Rolly“ Romero. Er tritt in diesen Kampf ein und erringt den beeindruckendsten Sieg seiner Karriere, ein einstimmiger Entscheidungssieg über Isaac Avelar im Dezember 2021.

„Ich sorge dafür, dass ich in Form bleibe, auch wenn ich nicht für ein bestimmtes Datum oder einen bestimmten Gegner trainiere,sagte García. „Ich habe von dieser Gelegenheit gehört, als ich aus der Dominikanischen Republik nach Las Vegas zurückgekehrt bin, und ich wusste einfach, dass ich den Stier bei den Hörnern packen musste. Ich sorge dafür, dass ich das Beste daraus mache, indem ich mich optimal vorbereite.“

Die San Juan de la Maguana, Das Produkt aus der Dominikanischen Republik weiß, dass dies seine Chance ist, vom Außenseiter zum WM-Anwärter aufzusteigen, und plant, seine Vielseitigkeit und Kraft im bisher größten Kampf seiner Karriere zu demonstrieren.

„Die Leute werden mein Potenzial am 26. Februar sehen“, sagte García. „Sie werden auch herausfinden, dass ich aus jeder Entfernung prügeln oder taktisch vorgehen kann. Wenn ich mich mit einem Wort als Boxer definieren müsste, das wäre "vielseitig". Meine Kraft ist eine Waffe, denn ich kann dich mit allem und jedem verletzen, was ich werfe.“

García ist ein begeisterter Fan der Boston Red Sox, der früher Baseball spielte und davon träumte, im Fenway Park Homeruns zu schlagen, während er dominikanische Baseballlegenden wie Pedro Martínez bewunderte, David Ortiz und Manny Ramirez. Seine Familie wollte, dass er studiert, aber es war sein Stiefbruder, der ihn zum Boxen brachte, als García ein Teenager war.

„Baseball war meine erste Liebe, aber mein älterer Stiefbruder Derlin Valdez boxte früher und er ermutigte mich, dasselbe zu tun,sagte García. „Er sagte mir immer wieder, ich solle ins Fitnessstudio gehen und, Als ich war 14, Ich beschloss, seinem Rat zu folgen und mich dem Boxen zu widmen. Ich wollte anfangs nicht wirklich, aber ich hatte auch nicht die Ressourcen, die ich brauchte, um ein echter Baseball-Profi zu werden.“

García wurde im Dezember Profi 2016 nach einem zweiten Platz in der 2015 Pan-Am-Spiele in Toronto und Qualifikation für die 2016 Olympiade in Rio de Janeiro.

„Ich habe auf die gewartet (2016) Olympia bevor er Profi wird,sagte García. „Mein Traum war es, eine Medaille zu gewinnen, und ich bin wegen einer unfairen Niederlage in den Vorrunden nicht dazu gekommen.“

Sechs Jahre später, Boxen ist im García-Haushalt immer noch eine Familienangelegenheit. Das treibt ihn zum Erfolg.

„Mein Ziel ist es, Weltmeister zu werden, und ich bin bestrebt, meiner Familie zu zeigen, dass ich tatsächlich in der Lage bin, als Athlet erfolgreich zu sein,sagte García. „Sie wollten, dass ich studiere, lernen, lerne und lerne noch mehr, aber ich zeige ihnen, dass ich mein Ziel erreicht habe.“

TEMPLE STUDENT LIVING THE DREAM PURSUING A CAREER AS A PROFESSSIONAL BOXER

Hinterlasse einen Kommentar

Temple student Daiyaan Butt (10-1, 5KOs) is living the dream.
As a first grader, he stood in front of his classmates on career day and declared he would become a boxer. When asked “why a boxer?” He responded he regularly watches Mike Tyson and Roberto Duran with his father which inspired his dream.


Butt will go toe-to-toe with Bryce Mills, of Liverpool, NY, (7-1, 4 KO) at Live! Kasino & Hotel in South Philadelphia on Thursday, Februar 24.

A boxer is not the only way that Butt wants to be remembered. He wants to be more than just a boxer. When asked about his hopes and dreams in boxing, Butt responded: “I don’t want to be labeled as just a boxer,” citing Muhammad Ali as an example. He wants to us his platform to make this world a better place.


As a junior at Temple University, Butt is studying Management Information Systems (MIS). He wants to be the leader of his own career inside the ring and outside the ring. He wants to use what he is learning at Temple University in their Fox School of Business and apply it to the business side of boxing.


With a great understanding with how money and finance works he will be able to make sure he understands his value and getting what he deserves. He enjoys learning new things, but enjoys it more when he can it apply it in everyday life.


Butt admits getting his hand raised is a great accomplishment in the ring, he also loves learning new skills in the gym and applying it the next sparring session or fight is just as gratifying.


ADDITIONAL Q&A with DAIYANN BUTT:


What is the biggest life lesson you have learned in boxing?

“You can’t take anything for granted in life in general but boxing taught that because in boxing it only takes one punch and that translates to life, next thing you know you could be on top of the world and then a your nobody.”

Is there current or former fighters that you took pieces of their style from and implemented into your style?

“Yes and no, yea obviously I look at great fighters and different fighters and take what they do and see if it works for myself but at the end of the day you have to be your own fighter and different person. You do not want to be a factory car and be the same as everyone else, you want to be your own person a little different, a little spice and twist in it. Yea I watch fighter and I’ll take little things that they do but you have to put your own style and twist with it. My style is a pure boxer puncher.”

The live boxing event, which is produced in partnership between Joe Hand Promotions and Russel Peltz, will feature a six round heavyweight bout between Sonny Conto (8-0, 7 KOs) out of Philadelphia, PA going up against Mike Marshall (6-2-1, 4 KOs) Kämpfe aus Danbury.

FITNESSSTUDIO & Titov Promotions reach agreement Oscar Rivas-Evgeny Romanov WBC Bridgerweight World Championship purse bid avoided

Hinterlasse einen Kommentar

MONTREAL (Februar 15, 2022) – Today’s scheduled World Boxing Council (WBC) purse bid has been avoided as Groupe Yvon Michel (FITNESSSTUDIO) announces an agreement has been reached with Titov Promotions, which promotes undefeated mandatory challenger Evgeny Romanov (16-0, 11 KOs), Russlands, for WBC Bridgerweight World Champion Oscar “Kaboom” Rivas’ first title defense.

Under this agreement, GYM obtained the rights to promote Rivas’ first WBC defense. “We are very happy with this outcome,” GYM President Yvon Michel said. “I would like to thank Mr. Alex Titov for his co-operation. We intend to hold this world championship in June, in Montreal or possibly in Colombia, where discussions are currently taking place. It was important for us that Oscar defends his crown in a familiar environment.”

Trained by Marc Ramsey, Rivas captured the WBC World title last October 22,winning a unanimous decision over Ryan Rozicki (13-1, 13 KOs) at the Olympia in Montreal.

Colombia-native Rivas, who represented his country at the 2008 Olympiade, became the first WBC World Champion in the history of the Bridgerweight Division. Romanov, for his part, became the mandatory contender by virtue of his 12-round dominance over compatriot Dmitry Kudryashov (24-5, 23 KOs) last May in Khimki, Russland. Romanov had an excellent amateur career, even registering a knockout victory over Deontay Wilder, the future WBC World Heavyweight Champion, in an international tournament.

“I am happy to be able to defend my WBC bridgerweight belt in familiar terrain and quickly,” Rivas commented. “I intend to keep this belt for a long time. Außerdem, whether my promoter GYM has obtained the rights to promote in my adopted city, Montreal, or in my native country, Kolumbien, I feel confident and surrounded by the best. It helps me stay focused on my goals.”

Hagler teams with Roach

Hagler family.jpg
(L-R) - Das späte, great Marvelous Marvin Hagler, his grandson James Jr., and son James

BOSTON (Februar 15, 2022) – There are few family names in boxing, especially in New England, as universally revered as Hagler and Roach.
They are part of boxing royalty.

There is a new connection as James Hagler, Jr., the grandson of the late Hall of Famer Marvelous Marvin Hagler, has signed an exclusive managerial contract with Fighter Locker, owned and operated by the nephew of Hall of Fame trainer Freddie Roach, Boston-based Ryan Roach.

The plan is for Roach to have Hagler fight in Massachusetts, ideally in Brockton, the City of Champions in which Hagler as well as another Hall of Famer, Rocky Marciano, fought out of during their professional careers.

“I was looking for a manager and read about Ryan,” Hagler said. “I looked him up online, talked with him, and met him last weekend for the first time. He is not a greedy person. By far, he offered me the best deal I have ever received. He really wants to help me. Ryan’s a cool dude. I feel good about signing with him.

“Fighting someday in Brockton and Boston means a lot to me, because of my grandfather’s background, and that’s one of the reasons I signed with Ryan. My mother and father are from that area, and I still have a lot of family living on both sides living there. I’ll be the third member of the Hagler family to fight in New England, joining my grandfather and uncle (Robbie Simms)."

“I’m excited to be managing James,” Roach commented. “Right away, I was interested in a fighter with the Hagler name. I spoke with James and he’s a good kid who is all in. He wants to prove himself on his own and I get that, because I want to make it on my own terms, not my last name.
“We’re excited to get him fighting in New England. We’re going to do great things together. We plan on having him fight in Brockton, hopefully this summer, to bring boxing back to Brockton.”

The 31-year-old Hagler, who fights out of Atlanta, didn’t start boxing until he was 24. Why did he start so late?

“My grandfather didn’t want any of us (in the Hagler family) to box,” James explained. “I wanted to be a boxer since I was 3 oder 4. He didn’t want anybody in his family to go through what he did in the Sugar Ray Leonard fight. Mein Vater (a boxing promoter in Atlanta) was an amateur boxer who fought in the Olympic Trials. He stopped boxing because my grandfather wouldn’t watch him fight. My father didn’t want to continue fighting.

“There’s a lot of pressure on me fighting because people expect me to be like my grandfather or want me to live up to the Hagler name. I feel good following in my grandfather’s footsteps. When guys fight me, it’s like their championship fight, because they want to say they beat a Hagler for bragging rights. I know that they will always have their best fight against me.”

Jakob (2-1, 1 KO) had a relatively brief amateur career, fighting in Alabama and Georgia, and the southpaw made his pro debut December 14, 2019, in Ohio, when he stopped Michael Widmer in round one. He’s only had two fights since, winning one and losing the other, the latest this past November.

Hagler will fight as a super middleweight for now, but he intends to campaign as a middleweight in the same division his legendary grandfather owned for so many years. He does have a dream fight in mind, Sprichwort, “I met Muhammad Ali’s grandson (Nico Walsh). I’d love to fight him someday.”
