Sampson Boxing teken weltergewig Nicklaus Flaz by 'n promosiekontrak
Sampson Boxing kondig met trots die ondertekening van die streperige weltergewig-vooruitsigte Nicklaus “La Bestia” Flaz aan by 'n promosiekontrak.
Sedert hy sy tweede loopbaannederlaag gely het, 'n skok eerste ronde uitklophou in Oktober 2020, Flaz (12-2, 8 Uitklophoue), van Vega Alta, Puerto Rico, het op 'n traan gegaan, drie indrukwekkende omgekrapte oorwinnings behaal; ’n gevestigde duursame veteraan uit te slaan en die onoorwonne te vat 0 rekords van twee belowende opkoms langs die pad.
Die 28-jarige Flaz het sy merkwaardige wenreeks begin deur 'n meerderheidsbeslissing van agt rondes te behaal. 13-0 Brian Ceballo in Oktober 2022. Volgende het nog 'n agt-ronde meerderheidsbesluit oor toe gekom 10-0 Jahi Tucker in Julie 2023. Maar Flaz het die bokswêreld verlede Woensdag regtig aan die praat gekry (Maart 13) deur die eerste te word wat die bekwame veteraan Luke Santamaria uitslaan in die mede-hoofgeleentheid van 'n wêreldwye gestroomde ProBoxTV-geleentheid in Plant City, Florida.
Santamaria het voorheen mense soos destyds geklop 22-1 Mykal Fox, voormalige wêreldkampioen Devon Alexander en het die WBC Continental Americas Welterweight Championship gehou met 'n oorwinning oor die voormalige wêreldtitel-uitdager Abel Ramos in Februarie 2022.
Lyk soos 'n hergebore weergawe van homself, Flaz het sy krag en spoed gebruik om Santamaria drie keer te laat val voordat hy die sesde ronde onderbreking gekry het. Flaz, wat op ouderdom begin boks het 16 en gewen 88 van sy 95 amateurgevegte insluitend twee opeenvolgende nasionale titels, sê hy het uiteindelik alles wat hy nodig het in plek gekry om 'n ernstige speler in die gestapelde 147-lb-afdeling te word.
"Ek voel goed,” het Flaz gesê oor sy ondertekening met Lewkowicz. “Hy was die promotor wat ek van die begin van my loopbaan af wou hê. Hy kan my na die volgende vlak neem en my so aktief hou as wat ek moet wees om op my beste te wees.” Flaz voeg by dat sedert verloor deur KO (aan Janelson Bocachica), hy het homself opnuut toegewy aan opleiding saam met hoofafrigter David Oyola en assistent-afrigter/bestuurder Belvin García in sy geboorteland Puerto Rico en het geweldige winste in elke aspek van sy spel gemaak.
Die harde werk was ten volle teen Santamaria ten toon gestel, soos Flaz elke aspek van die stryd teen 'n taai en gerespekteerde veteraan gedikteer het. “Ek voel nie asof boks ’n werk is nie,” het die selfversekerde Flaz gesê. “Dit is my passie en ek is mal daaroor. Ek is gereed om die ranglys te begin klim en by die wêreldkampioenskap uit te kom en ek het die span in plek om dit te doen.”
“Verloor het hom dalk gehelp,” het Lewkowicz van sy jongste ondertekenaar Flaz gesê. “Hy was oorvol selfvertroue, en dit het hom gekos. Nou neem hy niemand ligtelik op nie en sit die werk in wat dit verg om 'n kampioen te word. Ek is baie bly om deel van sy span te wees en sal hard werk om hom te help om sy boksdrome te verwesenlik.”

NEW YORK CITY (Maart 19, 2024) – Brooklyn-swaargewig Pryce Taylor (3-0, 2 Uitklophoue) het suksesvol oorgeskakel van basketbal na boks en vandag is die 27-jarige vooruitsig aan die toeneem as 'n onoorwonne prysvegter.
Taylor het gesê hy het sy bene van die bane in die ring gebring. Hy het die eerste keer 'n bal gedompel toe hy in graad agt was, vier duim korter as die 6'4" Taylor vandag is. Pryce erken dat hy basketbal vermis, maar merk vinnig op dat hy nog kan speel, nie noodwendig in 'n span nie, want hy is nie meer in basketbalvorm nie. “Ek is in boksvorm,” het hy trots opgemerk.
'n Versierde V.S. amateur bokser, uitgelig deur sy twee New York Golden Gloves Championship-titels, Taylor was ook 'n viermalige naaswenner in die VSA se nasionale kampioenskappe, insluitend een aan Joshua Edwards, wat gekwalifiseer het om as 'n superswaargewig vir Span VSA in die 2024 Olimpiese Spele in Parys.
Verlede jaar, Taylor het sewe oorwinnings behaal wat vir New York in die Team Combat League geveg het (TCL), wat 'n eenronde is, spanformaatkompetisie. Tegnies gesproke, die oorwinnings is nie deel van sy professionele boksrekord nie. Taylor het baat gevind by daardie ervaring en sal ook hierdie seisoen deelneem.
Taylor het basketbal vir een seisoen by Corning Community College in die staat New York gespeel. “Ek het ses jaar gelede ophou basketbal speel,"het Taylor gesê. "Ek het gehad 60 gevegte (amateurs, voordele en TCL) en glo die beste boksers kom daar met sparringervaring. So, Ek het baie ondervinding opgedoen. Ek het 'n goeie vaardighede en weet wat ek in die ring moet doen.
“My ingesteldheid is om te doen wat ander boksers nie doen nie. Alle boksers leer die basiese beginsels, maar alles wat hulle wil gooi, Ek gooi myself al, en ek weet hoe om daar teë te werk. Enigiets wat hulle gooi, kan ek verdedig.”
Taylor is deur sy bestuurder op die vinnige baan geplaas, New York City-gebaseerde prokureur Keith Sullivan, wat ontdek het dat dit nie maklik is om geskikte teenstanders vir Taylor te vind nie, wie vanweë sy grootte, amateur-stamboom en deelname aan die TCL, is baie meer gevorderd as wat sy drie pro-gevegte kan aandui.
Nog 'n onskatbare deel van Taylor se ontwikkeling is om gevestigde swaargewigte soos Jarrell "Big Baby" Miller te spartel., Otto Wallin, Vladyslav Sirenko, en Brandon Glanton om 'n paar van die meer bekendes te noem.
Taylor het verlede Desember sy pro-debuut gemaak, Mike Diorio in die openingsronde te stuit, Januarie gevolg 27 met presies dieselfde resultaat teenoor Gabriel Aguilar Costa. In sy mees onlangse optrede in Maart, Taylor het die afstand vir die eerste keer as 'n pro, 'n uitsluiting van vier rondes vir 'n eenparige besluit teen Antonio Torres (4-1), 40-36 drie keer.

In sy laaste stryd, gehou by Sony Hall, Taylor het by die ring uitgekom en daarna om die ring geparadeer met 'n Ierse vlag om sy massiewe skouers gedrapeer (sien bostaande prentjie).
“Keith (Sullivan) het geweet daar sou baie Ierse aanhangers daar wees om na 'n Ierse vegter te kyk (Emmet Brennan) agter my aan baklei,” het Taylor verduidelik. “Hy het gedink dit was 'n goeie manier om die groot Ierse skare te betrek, daarom het hy my in die Ierse driekleur vlag gedrapeer. Hy was reg, die aanwesige Iere was absoluut mal daaroor, en ek het nog 'n paar aanhangers gemaak.”
Basketbalverlies is boks se wins; Pryce Taylor is 'n wettige vooruitsig met geweldige onderstebo.
Benewens die bestuur van Pryce Taylor, Keith Sullivan, 'n voormalige Adjunkkommissaris by die New York State Athletic Commission, en jarelange boksprokureur, bestuur ook die IBF Bantamgewig Wêreldkampioen Miyo Yoshida (17-4, 0 Uitklophoue) en Bronx middelgewig-vooruitsigte Nisa Rodriguez (1-0), benewens mede-bestuur van Wêreldboksvereniging (WBA) Moenie. 12-gegradeerde weltergewig-aanspraakmaker Paddy “The Real Deal” Donovan (13-0, 10 Uitklophoue), die heersende WBA Kontinentale Kampioen van Limerick, Ierland. Sullivan bestuur Donovan saam met die voormalige wêreldmiddelgewigkampioen Andy Lee.

’n Sterk suidpoot wat by 22 het nog nie naby aan sy plafon as vegter gekom nie, Ramos (20-0, 16 Uitklophoue) Joey Spencer, wat toe onoorwonne was, in Maart verslaan, hom in rondte een laat val voordat hy hom in rondte sewe keer om die TKO in sy sensasionele te verdien 2023 debuut op die onderkaart van David Benavidez vs. Caleb Plant op SHOWTIME PPV. 'n Boorling van Casa Grande, Ariz., Ramos besit ook rugby 10-rondes eenparige besluite oor Brian Mendoza en Javier Molina in 2021, wat hy opgevolg het deur Luke Santamaria en Vladimir Hernandez in te verslaan 2022. Algehele, die jeugdige Ramos het erkenning gekry met hoogtepunt-reel KO's, stop sewe van sy laaste 10 teenstanders, wys sy vaardighede en vermoë om sy gevegte vroeg te beëindig.
“Ek is opgewonde om deel te wees van hierdie groot kaart teen 'n taai teenstander op 30 September,” sê Ramos. “Ek weet Lubin oefen hard en kom wen, wat vir 'n vermaaklike geveg sal sorg. Hierdie hele kaart is gestapel en ons wil nie teleurstel nie, so die ondersteuners is in vir 'n wonderlike aand van boks.”
Die 27-jarige Lubin (25-2, 18 Uitklophoue) het in Junie teruggekeer na die ring om 'n indrukwekkende vyfde ronde onderbreking van die veteraan Luis Arias te lewer, wat nog nooit voorheen gestop is nie. Lubin se vorige uitstappie het gesien hoe hy tone-tot-toon in een van 2022 se beste gevegte was, terwyl hy in April op SHOWTIME met mededinger Sebastian Fundora knockdowns verhandel het 2022. Op pad na die Fundora-stryd, Lubin het 'n indrukwekkende ses-wedstryd-wenreeks saamgestel sedert 'n nederlaag teen die destydse verenigde en nou onbetwiste 154-pond-kampioen Jermell Charlo in 2017, 'n lopie wat oorwinnings oor Jeison Rosario ingesluit het, Terrell Gausha en Ishe Smith. 'n Boorling van Orlando, Fla., Lubin het pro geword by 18 jaar oud in 2013 en het een van die jongste vooruitsigte geword wat ooit op die ontwikkelingsreeks verskyn hetSHOBOX: Die nuwe generasie®,verdien "Prospect Of The Year"-eerbewyse van ESPN en Ring Magazine in 2016.
“Ek weet die wêreld sal op September kyk 30 en ek beplan om op 'n groot manier te wen,” sê Lubin. “Ons het ’n jong en talentvolle vegter voor ons, maar ek is ook jonk en talentvol. Die verskil is dat ek die room van die oes van die 154-pond-afdeling geveg het. Maak nie saak of dit Olimpiërs is nie, top vooruitsigte, aanspraakmakers of kampioene, Ek het hulle aangeneem. Ek het 'n groot chip op my skouer en ek weet dit met hierdie oorwinning, Ek sal in 'n mega-geveg wees. Ek oefen baie hard en die hele wêreld sal sien dat dit vrugte afwerp.”
UGAS (27-5, 12 Uitklophoue) sal weer in September in aksie tree 30 vir die eerste keer sedert 'n April 2022 eenwordingswedstryd teen Errol Spence Jr. op SHOWTIME PPV. Hy het homself as 'n elite-weltergewig gevestig nadat hy teruggekeer het van 'n meer as twee jaar lange ontslag in 2016 volgende rug-aan-rug verliese in 2014. Hy het in Januarie sy kaartjie as wêreldkampioen deurgeskop 2021 nadat hy 'n WBA-gordel gewen het deur Abel Ramos in September te verslaan 2020. Hy het sy wêreldkampioenskapstatus in Augustus versterk 2021, toe hy ingetree het vir 'n beseerde Spence om die legendariese toekomstige Hall of Famer Manny Pacquiao deur eenparige besluit te verslaan. Kom van Santiago af, Kuba en woon nou in Miami, Florida, die Olimpiese bronsmedaljewenner oefen in Las Vegas saam met die bekende afrigter Ismael Salas en besit oorwinnings oor die destydse onoorwonne vegters Jamal James, Omar Figueroa Jr. en Bryant Perrella, plus veteraan-aanspraakmakers Thomas Dulorme en Ray Robinson.
“Ek en Mario Barrios het baie om te wen met 'n oorwinning in September 30, so ek weet dat hierdie geveg een gaan wees om te onthou,"sê Ugas. “Ek het geweldige respek vir Barrios. Hy is 'n ware vegter wat saam met die beste van hulle in die ring was, maar ek het vertroue dat ek sal oorwin. Ek het baie stryd in my oor en my beste vaardighede sal in hierdie stryd ten toon gestel word. Tuisland en Lewe, Ek veg vir my mense.”
Die 28-jarige Barrios (27-2, 18 Uitklophoue) het onlangs 'n opspraakwekkende uitklophou van Jovanie Santiago in Februarie behaal en Santiago in die agtste ronde gestuit.. Barrios se vorige geveg was sy weltergewigdebuut toe hy in Februarie 'n moeilike besluit aan die voormalige verenigde kampioen Keith Thurman laat vaar het. 2022. Die San Antonio-produk, wat nou saam met die topafrigter Bob Santos in Las Vegas oefen, het in September 'n wêreldkampioen van 140 pond geword 2019, met sy aggressiewe styl om Batyr Akhmedov uit te steek en 'n eenparige besluit te kry. Barrios het die superliggewigtitel in nog 'n aksiebelaaide titel verloor, hoogs mededingende wedstryd, aangesien hy in Junie deur die drie-afdeling en vyfmalige wêreldkampioen Gervonta Davis verslaan is 2021.
“Hierdie geveg gaan 'n oorlog wees, want ons baklei albei met baie hart en nie een van ons deins ooit terug nie,” het Barrios gesê. “Ek kan nie wag om aan 'n wedstryd soos hierdie deel te neem op een van die grootste kaarte van die jaar nie. Dit gaan 'n wonderlike aand van boks van begin tot einde wees en die Mexikaanse aanhangers kan verwag om 'n plofbare vertoning van 'El Azteca' te sien!"
Veg uit Phoenix, Arizona, Garcia (15-0, 12 Uitklophoue) is een van 2023 se grootste wegbreeksterre. Hy het in Maart op die toneel gebars deur die voorheen onoorwonne Amilcar Vidal in die vierde ronde uit te blaas om sy teenwoordigheid teen 160 pond aan te kondig.. Die 20-jarige het daardie vertoning opgevolg deur die veteraan Kevin Salgado te oorheers op pad na 'n eenparige besluit in April oor die SHOWTIME PPV-onderkaart van Gervonta Davis vs.. Ryan Garcia. Die voorbarige Garcia het vinnig beweeg sedert hy prof ingeskakel het 2020 en het ses van sy laaste agt teenstanders uitgestof.
"Dit is my tweede geveg vanjaar op 'n groot betaal-per-kyk-kaart en ek is baie opgewonde en selfs meer voorbereid as die eerste keer,” sê Garcia. “Reséndiz is 'n honger vegter net soos ek, so ek het geen twyfel dat ons 'n helse vertoning gaan aanbied vir al die aanhangers wat kyk nie.”
Die 24-jarige Reséndiz(14-1, 10 Uitklophoue) het 'n loopbaanbeste oorwinning in sy laaste uitstappie behaal toe hy die voormalige verenigde kampioen Jarrett Hurd in die 10ste en finale rondte van hul Maart-kragmeting op SHOWTIME. Reséndiz het op al drie kaarte gelei toe die geveg gestaak is weens 'n ernstige skeurwond op Hurd se lip. 'n Boorling van Nayarit, Mexiko, hy veg nou uit Los Angeles en sal probeer om dit drie agtereenvolgende oorwinnings te maak sedert 'n noukeurige nederlaag teen Marcos Hernandez in September 2021. Reséndiz het in Februarie pro geword 2018 en het 'n suksesvolle V.S. debuut in April 2021 met 'n beslissende oorwinning oor Quilisto Wood.
“Ek is baie bly om hierdie wonderlike geleentheid te hê om op so 'n belangrike gevegskaart mee te ding,” het Reséndiz gesê. “Ek is opgewonde om my droom te verwesenlik om in Las Vegas te veg, net soos my boks-idole wat ek op TV gekyk het. Ek het 'n wonderlike oefenkamp gehad wat my sal help om op my beste te lyk op September 30 en lewer ’n vertoning waardig van die bokslegendes wat my inspireer.”

“This show on August 12 is jam-packed with action for boxing fans as they will get an exciting world title clash in addition to some of the area’s top rising talent in tough contests live on SHOWTIME,Sê Tom Brown, President van TGB Promotions. “Emmanuel Rodriguez is hungry to make a second run as world champion at bantamweight and will be given all he can handle by the red-hot Melvin Lopez. With two of Maryland’s top rising stars in Gary Antuanne Russell and Travon Marshall stepping in for separate bouts before that showdown, this lines up to be a can’t-miss card at MGM National Harbor.”
Fighting out of Manati, Puerto Rico, Rodríguez(21-2, 13 Uitklophoue) defeated the previously unbeaten Gary Antonio Russell last October by technical decision to put himself back into position to fight for the world title. The 30-year-old originally won the IBF Bantamweight World Title with a unanimous decision victory over Paul Butler in 2018 and successfully defended it against the then-unbeaten Jason Moloney. Rodríguez went on to lose the title to former undisputed champion Naoya Inoue in their May 2019 title bout.
“I’m happy to have this chance to become a world champion again,” said Rodriguez. “We’re gonna go out there to win in spectacular fashion and my goal is to show that I’m the best fighter in the world at 118-pounds. My goal is to become undisputed at bantamweight, however I’m not overlooking Melvin Lopez, because he’s a good fighter and will come to give it his all on August 12.”
The 25-year-old Lopez (29-1, 19 Uitklophoue) has won eight-straight fights since suffering his only career loss in October 2019. Originally from Nicaragua and now fighting out of Miami, Lopez has fought professionally since 2015 and began competing stateside in 2018. Lopez scored three victories in 2022, starting the year with knockouts of Juan Gabriel Medina and Victor Ruiz, before most recently defeating Jobert Alvarez last December. Out of his last 10 oorwinnings, Lopez has ended nine of those inside of the distance.
“I’m very excited that the time is almost here to fight for a world title,"Sê Lopez. “We’ve had a great training camp and everyone has sacrificed and worked hard so that we’re at our best on August 12. I’m going to show everyone why I earned this opportunity and repay my team for all of their efforts. I have a lot of respect for Emmanuel, but the best man will have his hand raised when we share the ring.”
Fighting out of his native Capitol Heights, Md., Russell (16-0, 16 Uitklophoue) will carry on the legacy left by his late father Gary Sr. A member of one of the sport’s preeminent fighting families, Russell trains alongside his older brothers, former WBC Featherweight Champion Gary Jr. and bantamweight contender Gary Antonio. The 26-year-old has yet to allow an opponent to make it to the final bell since turning pro in 2017 following his run representing the U.S. at the Rio 2016 Somer Olimpiese Spele. Russell defeated his most accomplished foes to date in 2022, stopping former champion Viktor Postol in February before a TKO win against former two-division champion Rances Barthelemy in July.
“When you’re a student of the game like me, you have to consider that each step we take is about more than self-gratification. We’re doing this for keeps,” said Russell. “Kent Cruz has to catch up to me, but there’s no need for me to look back. The only direction I’m going is forward and that means putting on a spectacular performance on August 12, and proving I’m the next world champion in this division.”
The 30-year-old Cruz (16-0-3, 10 Uitklophoue) steps back into the ring after a pair of draws against fellow unbeaten Enriko Gogokhia in February and then November 2022. A native of St. Louis, Mo, Cruz defeated veterans Erik Humberto Castillo and Travis Hartman following a draw against Carlos Mohamed Rodriguez in April 2018. Cruz will pick up his past ring history with the Russell family on August 12, looking to avenge an amateur loss to Gary Allan Russell, Gary Antuanne’s older brother.
“I’m very excited for this fight on August 12,” said Cruz. “I’ve been waiting for a fight like this my whole career, so we didn’t hesitate when offered this one. I’m coming in as the underdog and that’s what’s fueling me. I’ve been an underdog my whole life and on August 12 I’m gonna shock the world. When I win this fight, I’ll be in contention to fight for a world title and have my chance to achieve my childhood dream.”
At just 22-years-old, Marshall (8-0, 7 Uitklophoue) has quickly shown the skill, power and poise to become a highly regarded prospect in just eight fights. Born in Landover, Md., and now fighting out of Capitol Heights, Md., Marshall is trained by former contender Andrew Council and has already scored two stoppages in 2023. Most recently he dominated veteran contender Justin DeLoach via third-round knockout in March, his most impressive victory to date.
“I’m really excited to be fighting at home in front of my family, friends and fans on August 12,” said Marshall. “I’m working hard every day in the gym so that when fight night comes I’m 100% and ready to put on a great performance for everyone watching. My goal is to show everyone that I belong on the big stage, and that starts with a victory over Gabriel Maestre.”
A two-time Olympian for his home country of Venezuela, Maestre (5-0-1, 4 Uitklophoue) had an extensive amateur run that included victories over Brian Castano, Carlos Adames, Alexander Besputin, Oscar Molina and Brian Ceballo. The 36-year-old made his U.S. debut with a controversial decision victory over Mykal Fox in August 2021 before fighting fellow unbeaten Taras Shelestyuk to a draw last March. Mees onlangs, Maestre defeated former two-division champion Devon Alexander after three rounds in April.
“I’m very ready for this fight against Travon Marshall,” said Maestre. “We are focused on the work that we need to put in so that we are victorious on August 12. I’m focused on having my hand raised and putting on a good show. We want to leave a good impression with the fans and move on to fight the big names in the welterweight division.”
The eight-day invitational event is open to novice (beginner) and open (ervaar) boxers of all ages from pee wee (aged 8-10) to masters (35 en oor) and aims to create opportunities for women of all ages and abilities to compete.
Meer as 200 boxers from eight National Federations across four continents are currently registered to take part.
The President of USA Boxing and a member of World Boxing’s Interim Executive Board, Tyson Lee, gesê: “USA Boxing is extremely proud to be able to host this event in association with World Boxing. The Championships aim to celebrate women and create valuable competition opportunities for female boxers of all standards and ages.
“Working with USA Boxing to deliver this event is a sign of World Boxing’s support for boxers at every level, from the grassroots to the elite, and its commitment to creating competitive opportunities that will enable all boxers to flourish.”
World Boxing was launched in April 2023. It will hold its inaugural Congress in November and plans to publish details of its competition strategy, tournament calendar and the bidding process for staging events in the latter part of 2023.
QUINCY, Mass. (Julie 10, 2023)– Like some of his fellow countrymen in the past, undefeated Irish light heavyweight prospects Tommy Hyde (5-0, 3 Uitklophoue) and Thomas “The Kid” O’Toole (7-0, 5 Uitklophoue) have traveled across “the pond” from their native Ireland to Boston in order to enhance their professional boxing careers.
They will both be fighting on the August 11ste (Augustus. 12sterain date) on the “Veterans Stadium Showcase” Pro-Am card, aangebied deur graniet Chin Promotions (GCP), at Veterans Memorial Stadium on Quincy (MA), a suburb of Boston only 10 miles to the south of the Massachusetts capital.
“This card wouldn’t be complete without some Irish flair to it,” GCP president Chris Traietti said. "Met wat gesê het, I didn’t want just any Irish fighters on the show. I wanted two of the hottest prospects. Working with both guys has been a pleasure. Their teams have been great. Their fan-bases are in for a treat come August 11ste."
They’ve built solid fanbases of Irish natives who now live in the United States, as well as Irish American boxing fans, just like their predecessors from the Emerald Isle, world champion Steve Collins and Mike Tyson-conqueror Kevin McBride.
Although Hyde and O’Toole will be fighting in separate six-round bouts this could be a prelude to a showdown between the Irish light heavyweights. They fought twice as amateurs with each winning one and in the future, they could be matched against each other once again, only this time as professionals.

The 24-year-old Hyde is a three-time Irish National Champion who had an 80-26 amateur rekord. Sy pa, Gary Hyde, is an international matchmaker who has represented numerous world champions.
“I am delighted to be fighting in Boston again,” Hyde said. “It’s like a second home now. I have a lot of family and friends living there and they all show me great support when I’m fighting there. It’s a big boxing city and it’s great to be following in the footsteps of Steve Collins and Kevin McBride who I really admire.
“I fought all over the world as an amateur in 2019. I fought outdoors in a multi-national tournament in Odessa, Oekraïne. It was a really good experience, so I’m really looking forward to fighting outdoors in a Boston stadium.
“This will be the second show we shared since we’ve been pros and it probably won’t be the last. A fight between us could be big down the line in Boston or Ireland. He’s an Irishman like me, so I’ll be supporting him until we fight just like any other Irish boxer.”
Hyde faces an opponent to be determined.

O’Toole, 25, is another celebrated Irish amateur boxer who captured top honors in the Haringey Box Cup and Irish Elevate final, in which he decisioned Hyde. “The Kid” won 51 van 60 amateur matches. Ten Years ago, O’Toole fought outdoors for the first and only time in an amateur show at Boston City Hall, arranged by then- Boston Mayor Marty Walsh.
A hotklou, O’Toole lives in nearby Braintree (MA). Six of his seven pro matches have been held in Greater Boston, the lone exception in Manchester, New Hampshire. “The Kid” is moving up one division to fight Massachusetts cruiserweight champion Scott “Scottie Bombs” Lampert (5-8, 4 Uitklophoue) for the vacant United States Boxing Federation (USBF) cruiserweight crown.
“Fighting outdoors does make a difference,” O’Toole commented, “especially if it’s hot and humid. I couldn’t prepare for fighting outdoors here in the summer if I was training in Ireland. We don’t have hot and humid weather there. I’ve been training here in this weather. It’s amazing how the weather can zap your strength. It did have an effect on me when I fought in Boston outdoors as an amateur.
“Tommy and I have gone our separate ways as pros, but our paths may grow down the line. We haven’t seen much of each other when we fought on the same card here. He is coming on very well in the pro ranks. He has a good man behind him in his father, Gary, and I think Tommy can go far. He’s said that a fight between us can easily be made if it makes sense. Ek stem saam. We both have big fan bases. This is going to be an amazing, fun night.”
Irish eyes will certainly be smilin’ Aug. 11stein Quincy.

”It’s a tremendous honor to be inducted into the New York State Boxing Hall of Fame,” said Collins (married name Globuschutz). “This is my fourth induction into Halls of Fame, which is special to me since I also held four world titles. But this is even more special since it is finally here in New York, the Mecca of Boxing, and where it all started for me.
“In 1995, I was part of the first class of women ever allowed to box in the fabled Daily News Golden Gloves. A year later, the first women’s fight televised on the USA Tuesday night boxing series from the Paramount at Madison Square Garden, which culminated in the highest female purses at the time from Madison Square Garden as a co-featured bout on a major pay-per-view for Don King. These were major accomplishments in women’s boxing. It helped paved the way for women today, some coming out of the Olympics, selling out The Garden and working towards equal pay with seven-figure pay days.”
Collins’ second professional fight was a six-round decision over Andrea DeShong in 1996, which brought pro women’s boxing to the famed Madison Square Garden and regular cable television.

Collins became the first fighter to simultaneously own world titles in the WIBF, IFBA, and IWBF.
Kathy Collins is a true pioneer in women’s boxing. Nou, she’ll be honored at home in New York by her induction into the NYSBHOF.
“In 30 jaar,” het sy afgesluit, “we’ve come a long way baby! It is truly an honor to be recognized by the New York State Boxing Hall of Fame and to be recognized and included in in a tremendously talented, successful class of inductees, and being around so many of my friends and colleagues that helped me break ceilings along the way.”
