Fleischer, with an amateur record of 112-18, is a protégé of 1996 Olympic Head Coach Al Mitchell and the youngest graduate of the U.S. Olympic Education Center for boxing at the age of 16. Mitchell’s guidance helped to propel Fleischer to U.S.A.

He compiled an amateur record of 90-5, racking up an impressive series of titles along the way including nine Junior Olympic championships, nine Junior Metro championships, eight New York State Silver Gloves championships and five Regional Silver Gloves championships.

Hailing from Carolina, Puerto Rico, Jose “Wonder Boy” Lopez (15-0-1, 11 KO) is a bit modest when it comes to discussing his punching power, but that power was evidenced during the 21-year-old’s appearance on October 26, 2013 at the Ray G. Amalbert in Juncos, Puerto Rico when he faced veteran Nicaraguan Sergio Gomez and knocked him out in the eighth and final round. En marzo 29, 2014, the undefeated powerhouse scored a first round technical knockout win over Leivi Brea of The Dominican Republic to capture the vacant WBC FECARBOX super bantamweight title at the Cosme Beitia Salamo Coliseum in Cataño, Puerto Rico.

Na súa última loita en Febreiro 7, Lopez fought to a draw with Josean Figuroa at the Coliseo Guillermo Angulo in Carolina. En Xuño 6, Lopez will look to add another win to his record in a six round featherweight bout.

No Novembro 11, 2012, Machado made is professional debut against Alex Nazario at the Coliseo Roger L. Mendoza en Caguas, Puerto Rico scoring a third round technical knockout win. Seven consecutive wins would follow, and on November 1, 2014, Machado fought for his first professional title at the Coliseo Hector Sola Bezares in Caguas where he defeated Alvin Torres via a second round technical knockout to capture the vacant WBC United States super featherweight title. Na súa loita máis recente, Machado successfully defended his title on March 14 against Jean Javier Sotelo at the Coliseo Roger L. Mendoza in Caguas with a first round knockout. Machado faces an opponent to be determined in a six round junior lightweight bout on June 6.

Wilfredo Vázquez Jr. (24-4-1, 19 KO) xurdiu a partir da gran sombra do seu pai, Lenda portorriqueño Wilfredo Vazquez, para facer un nome para si mesmo dentro do círculo cadrado. The 30-year-old former World Champion from Bayamon is on a quest to recapture a world title belt now campaigning in the featherweight division. After storming out of the gates with an 18 loitar serie invicta, Vázquez capturou a WBO pluma Júnior campionato mundial ao derrotar entón compañeiro invicto Marvin Sonsona vía unha cuarta fase eliminatoria en febreiro 27, 2010.

It took courage, but frankly Roc Nation is nothing if not courageous…we’re committed to promoting the biggest fights and the biggest fighters.

You’re going to see a great fight. Miguel Cotto is a great fighter. Daniel understands that and we have a great deal of respect for him, pero sobre Xuño 6on HBO at Barclays Center, it will be a whole new night.

Aquí está o que os loitadores tiñan que dicir antes do xoves pesaxe:

GALARZA:

“We had some great sparring with guys like Daniel Jacobs, Sadam Ali, Khytrov. They always give me top tough work. That’s top competition right there. Fighting guys like that builds my confidence. If I can hang in there with them then I can hang with anyone. They’re going to help to bring me to another level. I feed off their energy.

“Moore is an aggressive fighter, but I’m a come-forward guy, moi. Podo ser agresivo, but smart aggressive. Not just aggressive to punch and throw punches wildly. It’s more being smart, using my defense, my offense and countering when he makes mistakes.

“I try not to think about fighting in the main event in Brooklyn, but it helps and it definitely motivates me. Quero dicir, it doesn’t get any better than that – fighting in my home in the main event.

“It’s my backyard, so I have to put on a show. It doesn’t give me jitters because I’ve fought in my home before, but the main event is different. I just need to do my job.

"Para min, it’s will and skill. I bring my skill level to the next level. How bad do I want it? Am I going to perform well enough to move to the next level and face those top contenders?

“I want to face the top prospects so I can earn a spot as a contender. But I need to get through this guy first.”

MOORE:

“The main reason why I came all the way to the United States is because here is where boxing is at its best. I’m really excited about this opportunity. Being on SHOWTIME as a main event is huge for me.

“It’s not going to be easy, I’m fighting a guy from Brooklyn in Brooklyn in his back yard. But I’ve been in this situation before, I’ve fought abroad many times before and I’m not intimidated. It’s another day at the office for me.

“This is it for me, there’s no turning back. Teño que gañar. I just don’t see myself losing tomorrow.

“I’ve seen a couple Galarza videos on YouTube. He was more of a brawler at the beginning of his career. Agora, he’s a more disciplined boxer. That can backfire sometimes, something to watch out.

“You’ll see fireworks and excitement. I’m not going to look for the knockout. I think it’s a bad strategy to do that. If it comes, it comes. I’ll be looking to win, no matter what. This is a very big fight for me, so it’ll be all about winning, impressing and being at my best.”

KHYTROV

“The atmosphere training in Big Bear was amazing. It was one of the best training camps I’ve had. I’ve never been through a camp in the amateurs like that.

“I had a chance to meet Gennady (Golovkin) in Big Bear and we spoke and actually became pretty close. We talked about training regime, stuff athletes talk about. I loved it there.

“The adjustment from amateurs to pros has been fine. The only difference is handling the different rounds and realizing that you have to pace yourself for these eight, 10, 12 round fights.

“The best time to knock a guy out is in the first two rounds when they aren’t warmed up yet. I tried against (Jorge) Melendez but I couldn’t get him out. I just realized I needed to pace myself for the other six rounds and work the body. It was nice to get those rounds and experience against a tough fighter.

“I know he (Coley) is a pretty hard-hitting southpaw. I assume that he won’t come forward, but maybe he’ll surprise me. He has a few knockouts, but I’m going to watch him, learn and adapt.

“I faced southpaws in the amateurs. His style won’t give me any issues. I could even switch to a southpaw stance if I need to.

“Personally, health allowing, I think I should be a contender by the end of 2015. But I put all my trust into my team. They know best. My job is just to train and prepare for everything they put in front of me.

“Yes, 100 percent I’d like to face Gennady. To be the best you have to fight the best. And right now I consider him to be the best 160 pound fighter in the world.”

COLEY:

“Fighting on TV for me is a big deal. When I was little, my father used to throw fight parties to watch big fights and tomorrow he’s throwing one for me. That alone makes me so proud. I’ll have my own viewing party. I’m fighting on national television, na canle Showtime. That’s such of big deal for me. This is my breakout. This is the sign I’m made it.

“I stay in shape all year round, but for the past two months I’ve been taking it to the extreme. Training hard, sparring even harder.

“I’ve been working very hard. I’ve sparred with world champions and I’ve been doing well. I think this is my time to step up and show everybody how good I am.

“I’m predicting there will be a stoppage in the later rounds.”

DEREVYANCHENKO:

“The competition I faced in the WSB was, for the most part, the best fighters in the world. Moi lonxe, the guys I’ve faced in the pros don’t have that resume, that skill level. So I think I’ve fought in more than just four pro fights.

“I’m working hard in the gym to make the transition from amateur to pro. I’m taking it step-by-step. I don’t want to jump the gun or make a mistake too fast. I’m looking forward to increasing my level of opposition gradually.

“I’ve seen some of his (Campa) loitas. In some fights he boxes different than in other fights. We’ll see what he does in the ring and adjust accordingly. But I don’t think he can bring anything that I haven’t seen before. But he’s a Mexican fighter so we know he won’t give up.

“I’m going to show what I’m worth. I’ve been preparing for this my whole life. Now is my chance to build my fan base and show what I can do in the ring.”

CAMPA:

“This is my first fight in the U.S., and I’m planning to take full advantage of this opportunity.

“My training was intense, a lot of running, especially in the mountains. I worked on my conditioning and my speed. I’m at the best shape I’ve ever been.

“When I found out about my opponent, I watched video on him and I know I’m better than him. I think my main advantages are age and speed. My opponent is 29, Eu son 23. I’m younger and quicker and I’m not about to make it easy for him.

“I’m going to read him in the early rounds and, if I feel he’s not hurting me, I’ll go the distance.

“This fight is a huge step-up for me. I see it as key fight. I feel it might be a make or break for me. We’ll see, I might get a chance to deliver a knockout and that might spark some attention in the boxing world.”

Invicto Brooklynites FRANK Galarza, Ievgen KHYTROV E SERGIY DEREVYANCHENKO Resaltado en ShoBox: THE NEW Generation tripleheader AT Deportes Aviator centro de eventos e IN BROOKLYN, N.I..

Venres, Abril 10 En 10 p.m. E/PT; Directo na canle Showtime^®

Nova York (Abril 2, 2015) - Brooklyn nativo, invicto Frank "Notorious" Galarza (16-0-2, 10 Kos) volta ao arena para loitar contra a Bélxica de Sheldon "The Closer" Moore (13-2-1, 9 Kos) nun oito redonda welterweight super duelo que encabeza ShoBox: A Nova Xeración tripleheader on Venres, Abril 10 do Aviator Sports e Centro de Eventos en Brooklyn, N.I., vivir ALTURA DE COMEZAR (10 p.m. E/PT, atrasado na Costa Oeste).

Galarza, considerado por moitos como "The Brooklyn Rocky," segue a compensar o tempo perdido. Súa impactante segunda rolda KO vitoria sobre o favorecido John Thompson na súa ShoBox: A Nova Xeraciónestrea, was one of the most memorable knockouts of the year. Galarza has been on a tear since.

"Galarza foi un achado fortuito por ShoBox,'' Historiador do boxeo recoñecido e ShoBox analista experto Steve Farhood. "Desde que chat Thompson, el venceu catro veces, e mirou cada vez mellor. O nivel da súa oposición non permitir que fose chamado un candidato aínda, pero fixo grandes avances. Gustaríame pensar na idade 29 ía tentar facer deste un gran ano para el. "

A loita Galarza-Moore é un dos tres programados oito polivalentes nunha cerimonia que ten un sabor distinto Brooklyn a el. Invicto medios poder de perforación Ievgen "O ucraíno Lion" Khytrov (9-0, 9 Kos) e stablemate, blue-chip super-medios perspectiva Sergiy "The Technician" Derevyanchenko (4-0, 3 Kos / World Series of Boxing: 23-1, 7 Kos) tamén residen en Brooklyn.

Khytrov asume compañeiro invicto Aaron "Heavy Metal" Coley (9-0-1, 6 Kos), de Hayward, Calif., mentres que o Derevyanchenko mundo do ranking ha caixa xa batido A Área "Ameaza / Threat" Campa (13-1, 1 NC, 9 Kos), de Sonora, México.

Para Galarza, quen está subindo no ránking mundial, O recente incremento non podería vir en mellor momento. A forte físicamente, agresiva boxer-perforado, Galarza comezou tarde no boxeo e tiña só 11 loitas afeccionadas.

"O tempo para min é sempre agora,'' Dixo el. "O meu primeiro ShoBox loitar definir a plataforma para me. Non só gañou unha loita que absolutamente ninguén pensou que podía, Gañei o en grande. Eu fixen unha declaración. Eu continuou a crecer e sentir que comece mellor desde que loita. Pero eu estou aquí para amosar á xente o que eu estou pensando, seguir a adestrar moito e só leva-la aos poucos, unha loita de cada vez.

"É emocionante para loitar no evento principal televisado no meu curro. Nunca estiven máis motivado para un xogo. Quero agradecer a Showtime por darme outra oportunidade de loitar ShoBox.''

En termos de estilo, Galarza cre que esta é unha gran disputa para el. "Moore parece fisicamente grande e forte, resistente e con fame e vén para loitar,'' Dixo el. "El é agresivo e iso é a mellor parte para iso - debe facer para unha gran loita. Podo ser agresivo, moi. Sei que está a benvida a loitar e todo o mundo sabe que eu non estou movendo cara atrás, por iso espero que fogos de artificio.

"Eu veño para loitar cada vez, especialmente na canle Showtime, en ShoBox onde eles dan-lle adversarios de bo calibre que son esperamos para facer un concerto e esperamos para facer unha boa loita.

"É en Brooklyn, miña cidade natal, e quero entreter a xente. Este é o meu show, o meu regreso a casa, e eu vou defender a miña propia casa. Eu teño un traballo a facer en abril 10, pero despois diso, os grandes nomes da división van ser forzados a manexar comigo. Eu son 29 e poñendo todo na liña. ''

No seu último ShoBox aspecto, Galarza gañou unha decisión de oito unánime redonda sobre invicto Sebastien Bouchard (8-0 indo en) en maio 16, 2014, polos correas de 78-73 e 77-74 dúas veces, a pesar de ter un punto deducido por un golpe baixo na rolda final.

O adversario de Galarza, 27-anos de idade, Moore, está facendo a súa ShoBox estrea e cuarta inicio nos Estados Unidos, onde está 1-1-1. El apareceu por última vez no U.S. en xuño 2012.

"Esta é unha grande oportunidade para min e para a miña carreira, mans para abaixo esta é a maior loita da miña vida,"Moore dixo. "É unha loita debe-gañou para min. Teño visto algunhas das loitas de Galarza e estou plenamente seguro de que teño o que fai falta para perturbalo lo no seu curro. Este é un soño feito realidade para min, loitando na televisión nacional, e eu pensando en dar a coñecer o mundo do boxeo que eu pertenzo ao nivel da élite desa división.

"O meu estilo é sempre agresivo. Eu gusto de camiñar ata o meu adversario. Galarza ten boa desprazamento e bo alcance. Pero esa loita vai ser a primeira loita en que eu non teño que traballar na parte durante a preparación. Eu son 100 por cento dedicado ao deporte e preparado para ir o 10 de abril "

O 5-foot-10 Moore gañou súas dúas últimas loitas, o último en un combate no primeiro round sobre Janos Varga último Decembro. 20 en Bélxica. Así como Galarza, el ten un inicio tardío no boxeo e tivo unha carreira afeccionada limitada (27 extremos). Fixo kickboxing cando era 15, pero non tivo a súa primeira loita afeccionada ata a idade de 19.

Khytrov (pronunciadas HE-custos) era un afeccionado fenomenal con reportedly 500 loitas afeccionadas. El foi o 2011 campión mundial afeccionado e un representante para a Ucraína no 2012 Xogos Olímpicos.

Esta será a súa segunda aparición no ShoBox. Na súa estrea en Xan. 9, el destruíu o previamente invicto Maurice Louishomme, vencendo por nocaute técnico na terceira rolda. Acendeu-se Louishomme coa man dereita e uppercuts para o corpo, cambaleando-lo en varias ocasións nun one-sided caso que estaba parado en 0:24 na terceira rolda.

Agresivo, ofensiva de espírito Khytrov loitou un total de 27 rounds en nove partidos, unha media de tres rounds unha loita - e que inclúe a súa TKO carreira-mellor oitava rolda sobre sempre difícil Puerto Rican Jorge Melendez en marzo 6.

"Ievgen [pronunciado yev-gin, cun disco G] é tan fan-friendly un loitador como vai atopar, nunca dá un paso atrás, mira para machucar seu adversario con cada zócolo,'' Farhood dixo. “After nine fights, mostra todos os sinais de que vai ser un candidato ao título un ano a 18 meses. Seu último, unha paralización de máis de Jorge Melendez, Foi unha xogada ousada para asumir un adversario perigoso e experimentado e el levou para fóra, rompe-o para abaixo. O que isto quere dicir-me?"

Un dos mellores perspectivas no boxeo, o 5-foot-11, 26-year-old Khytrov movida a un ritmo moito máis rápido que a maioría das outras perspectivas, nesta fase das súas carreiras. Fixo o seu debut profesional en idade 25 en decembro 2013 e loitou seis veces en 2014. Esta é a súa terceira loita de 2015. Todas as súas loitas foron en Estados Unidos.

Khytrov, que se cambiou para o Brooklyn logo o 2012 Xogos Olímpicos, está ansioso para Abril 10 chegar. "Estou moi animado para volver aos cuadriláteros en Abril 10, especialmente sendo que a loita está o meu fogar adoptivo de Brooklyn,'' Dixo el. "Quero agradecer aos meus promotores DiBella Lecer e Combate Promotions Inc. e meu director Al Haymon por esta oportunidade para unha vez máis amosar as miñas habilidades en ShoBox.

"Espero unha loita dura de Coley, quen, como eu, nunca foi derrotado como un profesional. Sabiamos que 2015 ía ser un gran ano para min e para a miña carreira, e prometo aínda outro rendemento espectacular en Abril 10 mentres seguimos a subir as filas da miña división ".

Khytrov compara o seu estilo para un dos grandes nomes de todos os tempos do boxeo. “Eu teño un estilo de Roberto Durán. Eu son un Brawl all-out,'' Dixo el. "Eu atacar o corpo. Eu amo os focos TV. ''

Coley é un zurdo e de dous anos pro que está dando un paso inmenso superior nesta loita, súa ShoBox e estrea oito rolda. A perspectiva en 160 libras - subiu de división dos medios júnior na súa última loita - el iscoming off sexto nocaute da súa carreira, un KO quinta redonda sobre Loren Myers en outubro. 11, 2014.

"Estou moi animado sobre presentando as miñas habilidades nunha plataforma como canle Showtime,'' Dixo o Coley sempre ben acondicionado, que nunca foi derrubado como un profesional ou afeccionado. "Vin loita Khytrov. Polo que parece, el é un loitador decente. Realmente non creo que haxa algo de especial nel. El é moi sinxelo, un gajo do Leste, que só entra e utiliza pequenos ángulos. El é un perforado duro con bo poder, pero eu non sei as faces que está loitando.

"Un Pouco Máis, Non podes ferir o que non pode bater. "

Un boxer áxil que agora traballa fóra de Virgil Hunter'S ximnasio no norte de California, Coley está facendo a súa segunda partida para novo adestrador Eddie Croft.El fora vivir e adestrando en Las Vegas. Foi 8-0 no inicio dunha carreira profesional que comezou en abril 2012.

Respecto do seu apelido, Coley dixo, "O meu pai é propietario dunha empresa de chatarra de metal."

Derevyanchenko (pronunciado der-you-van-CHENK-oh), que está facendo a súaShoBox estrea, ten a aparencia dun candidato "imperdible". Un paso máis, moitos esperan que o seu ascenso no ránking mundial para ser nada menos que meteórica. El está actualmente clasificado n. 12 na IBF, Non. 25 no WBC.

"Estou moi animado coa miña primeira loita na televisión americana,'' Dixo el. "Esta será a primeira vez que aparece en ShoBox e eu estou absolutamente encantado. Esta é a miña festa de debutante. Estou preparando día e noite, e eu estou listo para amosar as miñas habilidades para o mundo. Estou preparado para amosar-lles 'The Technician ".

"O meu estilo é moi técnico, pero unha vez eu creo que o meu adversario para fóra, Eu atacar ferozmente. Con moito traballo e un gran equipo detrás de min, Vou facer un campión do mundo na miña categoría. Non hai dúbida na miña mente. "

Un afeccionado excepcional, o 5-foot-7 Derevyanchenko compilou unha marca impresionante de 390-20 mentres representando súa Ucraína natal no 2008 Xogos Olímpicos. Un ano antes, el gañou a medalla de bronce no 2007 Afeccionado Campionatos Mundiais.

Este será o quinto inicio do Derevyanchenko nunha cola do lado de fóra do World Series of Boxing onde foi 23-1. El foi o 2012 WSB Team Champion e 2011 e 2012 WSB Individual Champion. El loitou na WSB desde novembro 2010 a abril 2014.

Derevyanchenko venceu súa primeira loita fóra da WSB nun TKO segunda rolda sobre Cromwell Gordon en xullo 23, 2014. Na súa última partida pasadoFebreiro. 20, el marcou un TKO no segundo round unilateral sobre Goberno Biosse.

En canto ao seu adversario, Derevyanchenko dixo, "Campa é un bo loitador - tall, forte. El mira duradeiro, un adversario sólido. ''

Campa está facendo a súa ShoBox estrearase no Abril 10 e será a súa primeira loita fóra do México. Gañou catro nunha fileira, tres por KO. El nocauteou Christian Chavez na segunda rolda na súa última excursión últimaDecembro. 6.

A 6-foot-1, 23-anos de idade, está dando un salto xigantesco en clase e as probabilidades están contra el, pero nada diso importa para el unha vez máis a apertura sons de campá.

“I am very excited to finally make my dream a reality and fight in the United States,'' Dixo el. "Esta é só a oportunidade que eu teño entrenado e loitou polos últimos cinco anos. Son versátil; Podo loitar de forma agresiva ou caixa e movemento.

“Many promising young prospects got their start on ShoBox e pasou a gañar títulos mundiais. En Abril 10, Alan Campa comezará a pavimentar o camiño para unirse á lista de ShoBox campións do mundo.

"Eu teño entrenado moi duro. Sei que podo gañar esta loita. "

Campa tamén tiña un fondo afeccionado forte (182-6). Antes de facer profesional en setembro 2010, el foi cinco veces campión do estado de Sonora, un campión rexional de cinco veces, e un campión nacional catro veces. Tamén foi o medallista de ouro no 2010 Pan Campionato mocidade americana na 165 libras.
