VILLA RUBEN: ‘I’M PRETTY SURE ME AND SHAKUR STEVENSON WILL FIGHT AGAIN

https://www.ringtv.com/533294-ruben-villa-im-pretty-sure-shakur-stevenson-will-fight/

 

 

 

BY JOSEPH SANTOLIQUITO (RINGTV.COM)

 

 

 

The encouragement wasn’t so subtle, as Ruben Villa IV looked up from his muddy hands and knees, wiping his sweaty brow with his forearm and wondering if the day would ever end. Ruben Villa III, Villa’s father, blurted out, “Do you want to do this for the rest of your life? You better start getting serious about boxing,” or working in sweltering 90-degree heat in the fields would become a fact of life.

 

 

 

Villa, the gifted featherweight southpaw, was around 15 ans, à l'époque, and boxing was just something to fill the time. Though sweating in the gym certainly beat toiling for his father in the summer, lugging boxes, landscaping in what Villa describes as abig old yard,” and making deliveries.

 

 

 

“Boxe, à moi, was hard at the time and I was too immature to understand the work that you had to put into it to be successful,” dit Villa, qui fêtera 21 la semaine prochaine. “I had to learn sacrifices were needed in order to be successful. Nothing was going to be handed to me. Once my father took me to work that day, I decided, ne pas, I’d rather get paid to beat someone up.

 

 

 

That next someone for Villa (10-0, 4 KO) could be Colombian Marlon Olea (13-2, 12 KOs) in Villa’s first scheduled eight-rounder, from the Salinas Storm House, à Salinas, Californie, le samedi soir. This is the first time Villa will be fighting at home as a pro, comme l'événement principal.

 

 

 

When I’m sweating and working my ass off at the gym, I think back to the times I worked with my father and I’ll always remember that,” dit Villa, the only boy of five children. “I’m not afraid of hard work but there are better ways to get paid. There are worse situations than boxing and boxing for a living can be a hard life too. You’re away from your family for a month and you’re sweating just as hard as when I worked for my father, who has a job in the agriculture business, doing everything from driving a forklift to making deliveries.

 

 

 

You appreciate hard work once you see what you’re doing to keep food on the table. You get a greater appreciation when you do what they do. I used to help my father when I was in my mid-teens a couple of times. I did whatever my father told me to do. It meant doing all of the moving, boîtes, wooden pallets and this yard that was always dirty. I helped my dad with deliveries and cleaning that big old yard of his. I never wanted to go back to that.

 

It made Villa look at boxing differently.

 

 

 

This fight with Olea is another step for me,” dit Villa, whose patience belies his age. “My time will come eventually. Je sais que. Olea, Je sais, is a Colombian who is 13-2 and he has 12 KO, so he comes pretty heavy-handed. My sparring went well. I had some heavier guys come in and I’m ready to show what I can do.

 

 

 

Villa is hoping his career continues on an upward trajectory, so he can one day professionally meet 2016 U.S.. médaillé d'argent olympique Shakur Stevenson, who Villa defeated twice in 2015, en tant qu'amateur. The 5-foot-6 Villa, who started boxing when he was five to curb his overly rambunctious behavior, and Stevenson, qui est 5-0, avec 2 KOs as a pro, are both featherweights.

 

 

 

After Villa beat Stevenson the second time in 2015, Stevenson made the photo of the referee raising Villa’s hand the screensaver on his cell phone. Stevenson got his revenge by beating Villa twice at the Olympic Trials, en Décembre 2015, to earn a spot on the U.S. team for the 2016 Jeux Olympiques de Rio.

 

 

 

Somewhere down the line, I’m pretty sure me and Stevenson will happen again,” Villa a dit. “I want to see him again. Once we make a name for ourselves, il va se passer. We’ll get that fight in and there is a rivalry between us. I know more people in boxing may know him more than they know me but I don’t care.

 

 

 

I’ve always had the idea to push through with hard work. I’ll get mine eventually.

Michael Dutchover Dominates in Main Event Debut

PHILADELPHIA, PENN./ORANGE, Californie. (Mars 19, 2018)–Junior léger Michael Néerlandais Plus (8-0, 5 KOs) delivered an impressive performance in his main event debut Samedi night from the Hôtel Doubletree en Orange, Californie.

Pays-Bas Plus, 20, thoroughly out boxed and outmaneuvered solid prospect Ricardo Lopez(7-2-2, 6 KOs) to the tune of a one-side, unanimous decision win (scores: 59-55 all around).
I felt like I controlled the entire fight from beginning to end,” remarked Dutchover, qui est co-promu par Banner Promotions et Thompson Boxing. “He tried to come on late in the fight, but it was too late for him. I had already figured him out.
En Effet, Dutchover put his stamp on the fight from the outset. The first three rounds consisted of the Texas native firing shots from a variety of angles. Lopez, who is based in Tijuana, Mex., tried to get back in the game in the fourth and fifth rounds, but Dutchover used his counter punching ability to stymie the attack.
Avant le combat, Dutchover promised to show off a more polished skill set after recently working as the chief sparring partner to world champion Oscar Valdez. He certainly looked like the high-end prospect that many predicted he would become once his impressive amateur run came to a close.
I wanted to be smart out there,” said Dutchover after the fight. “You can’t overwhelm everyone with natural ability. At some point you’re going to have to think your way out of a tough situation. I think I showed off my ring IQ tonight [Samedi].”

“Je suis 10-0 maintenant, and I cant ell you how excited I am to get the early knockout in front of my adopted American fans,” said Kilic. “Taronze was a tough opponent, but I trained too hard for this fight not to get the early knockout. 2018 est mon année, and I am putting the middleweight division on notice. I trust my manager to get the opportunity to showcase my talent to the entire world.
Kilic is managed by No Limit Mindset LLC, and CEO Shane Shapiro is extremely confident in the direct that his fighter is heading.
Vendredi was a big step for Cem Kilic. He demonstrated that at age 23 against a very tought opponent, who had fought three world champions (Autres Berto, Alfredo Angulo and Austin Trout) as well as a plethora of big name contenders, that Cem was able to take him out in 2 tours. I am very pleased and excited to announce a MAJOR mover very shortly.
Kilic is promoted by Greg Cohen Promotions.

PHILADELPHIA, PENN./ORANGE, Californie. (Février. 19, 2017)- Heralded prospect Ruben Villa (10-0, 4 KOs) de Salinas, Californie. made it ten straight wins to start his career by outpointing veteran Juan Sandoval (15-18, 5 KOs) du Mexique. Scores: 59-55, 60-54 deux fois.
The bout was the co-feature this past Vendredi night at the Doubletree Hotel in Ontario, Californie.

Villa, 20, capitalized on his southpaw stance by landing a strong jab and countering with a right hook that routinely found its mark. Sandoval often looked confused and never managed to find any angles against the busier Villa.
I just tried to keep the pressure on him from start to finish,” dit Villa, qui est co-promu par Banner Promotions et Thompson Boxing. “I think he fought a cautious fight, but I was still able to land a lot of punches in every round.

Vendredi nuit, one judge failed to give Villa all six rounds (59-55).
That streak was bound to end sooner or later,” Villa a dit. “I’ll have to start another one.
Once again Ruben had a terrific outing vendredi nuit,” dit Promotions bannière président, Artie Pelullo.

Top Prospect Ruben Villa (9-0, 4 KOs) in Action TONIGHT!! en Ontario, COMME

Philadelphie, Penn./ORANGE, Californie. (Février. 16, 2018) – Rising featherweight talent Ruben Villa (9-0, 4 KOs) de Salinas, Californie. faced some fight week uncertainty after his initial opponent, Ruben Tamayo, fell in and was replaced by Juan Sandoval (7-20-1, 4 KOs) de San Bernardino, Californie. tard Mercredi.

Le “Path to Glory” co-feature between Villa and Sandoval is set for 6-rounds and originates from the Doubletree Hotel in Ontario, Californie. Ce soir.

Villa, a former two-time Golden Gloves winner, gave his take on ce soir last minute match up, his early dominance on the scorecards, and what its like sparring against heavier competition.

Your main sparring partners for this training camp were Joel Diaz, Jr. and Andy Vences. Both fight at a heavier weight class than you (135-140 lbs.). What kind of advantage will that give you vendredi nuit?

It’s a tremendous advantage. Mon entraîneur, Max Garcia, wanted me to spar bigger, longer guys with respectable records. Both Joel and Andy have hit the 20-fight mark and are highly skilled. I went four-minute rounds with them to make sure I was prepared for Tamayo. They gave me excellent work.

Is there anything specific that you dialed in on for this training camp?

I’m trying to use more angles so I can attack in different ways. Aussi, trying to mix up my movements so I don’t telegraph what I’m trying to do.

Your opponent, Juan Sandoval, was added at the last minute. How does this affect your preparation?

“Il boxe. This type of stuff happens all the time especially when you’re first starting out. I’m not too worried. I put in an excellent training camp and I’m prepared for everything.

Of your five wins that have resulted in unanimous decision victories, you’ve managed to win every round on every scorecard. Did you expect that kind of dominance early on?

Staying in the gym pays dividends, but at the same time you should see that type of dominance in a prospect. The ability to impose your will boosts your confidence. I see every round of every fight going my way. It’s not arrogance, it’s confidence and you need that belief otherwise you’re in trouble.

Villa est promue par Banner Promotions et Thompson Boxing.

Tous les combats seront diffusés en direct sur TB Presents: Path to Glory via our Facebook page and ThompsonBoxing.com.

The entire main card of all three of these events will be televised live and nationwide on AXS TV at 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT.
I’m excited to kick off 2018 with three straight weeks of LFA action across the country”, A déclaré Soares. “Curtis Millender and Nick Barnes are coming off big wins in LFA headliners and will meet in the main event of LFA 30 in southern California on 12 janvier. The following week, we head to Arizona with top contenders Bobby Moffett and Thanh Le meeting for the interim featherweight title in the main event LFA 31. We finish the month with two title fights at LFA 32 in southern Louisiana. Brendan Allen faces Anthony Hernandez for the vacant middleweight title in the main event and Ryan Spann will take on Alex Nicholson for the inaugural light-heavyweight title in the co-headliner.
Mill Ends (13-3) returns home to the building where he fought and won his first seven fights. The Orange County juggernaut is looking to build off a perfect 2017 where he won three fights, including back-to-back LFA headliners. His most recent win came via highlight reel Head Kick KO in the main event of LFA 24. Millender will meet Barnes (12-2) in a long-awaited showdown between two of southern California’s finest. The welterweight stars started their careers in the southern California regional circuit, moved on to Bellator, and will finally meet in the main event of LFA 30. Barnes, like Millender, is coming off an impressive win in an LFA headliner.
L'événement principal de LFA 31 is a fight that casual fans and MMA purists alike are salivating over. It pits a rugged and accomplished BJJ black belt in Moffett (10-2) against one of the most dynamic strikers in all of MMA in Le (7-1) with the LFA interim featherweight title on the line. Sur papier, this is a textbook grappler vs. striker bout at its highest form. Cependant, both men bring so much more to the table than what their respective martial arts backgrounds represent. Moffett, who trains out of The MMA Lab, has shown a willingness to throw down with anyone, while Le trains with BJJ wunderkind and UFC star Ryan Hall in northern Virginia.
LFA will conclude its busy month of January with a pair of title tilts in southern Louisiana. LFA standout and Louisiana native Allen (8-2) will get a second shot at LFA gold after going five rounds with current UFC star Eryk Anders for the inaugural LFA middleweight title in June. Allen quickly rebounded six weeks later with a submission win in the co-main event of LFA 18. He will face another highly-touted undefeated prospect for the title. This time it comes in the form of the northern California destroyer Hernandez (5-0). L'homme connu sous le nom “Fluffyhas finished everyone he has faced inside the first round.
