UNBEATEN COLOMBIAN POWER-PUNCHER TALKS RADZHAB BUTAEV SHOWDOWN AND FIRST FIGHT IN AMERICA

 

GILROY, Calif. (November. 7, 2017)Unbeaten Colombian power-puncher Janer Gonzalez (19-0-1, 15 KOS) takes a major step up in competition when he faces unbeaten Russian prospect Radzhab Butaev (7-0, 6 KOS; WSOB: 9-1) denne fredag, November. 10, at the Masonic at Templelive Cleveland in downtown Cleveland. The scheduled eight-round welterweight bout will be telecast on the popular ShoBox: Den nye generation series LIVE on SHOWTIME (10 p.m. OG/PT, forsinket på vestkysten).

 

Gonzalez, who is coached by Ruben Guerrero Sr., recently shared his training camp experience as his showdown with Butaev nears. Gonzalez, who is making his United States and SHOWTIME debut, last fought in September of this year.

 

Here is what Gonzalez had to say ahead of Fredag night’s fight.

 

On his recent training camp with Ruben Guerrero Sr.:

 

My good friend Oscar Escandon introduced me to Mr. Guerrero about a month ago. I came to California to start training with Ruben shortly after. It’s been a great transition and training camp has been very productive. I’ve been sparring every other day since I got here. I’m in good shape and I’m ready to perform at my best denne fredag.”

 

On facing undefeated Russian prospect Radzhab Butaev:

 

I know I have a tough fight ahead of me, but I’m ready for the challenge. Butaev had a tremendous amateur career, but so did I. I have over 300 amateur fights under my belt and there is nothing Butaev will bring to the ring that I haven’t already seen. We equally have a lot of power, so the fans can expect to see some big shots being thrown by both of us. I’m going to leave everything in the ring come fight night.

 

On making his U.S. debut and what a victory on Showtime will do for his career:

 

Fighting on SHOWTIME is a tremendous blessing for me. This is my first fight in America and I going to make it special. The exposure I will get can take my career to the next level, especially if I come out victorious. A win will garner me some big fights and some big paydays. I’m fighting for my family and my countrymen in Colombia. My motivation is at an all-time high and the boxing world will know my name after this fight.”

Ruben Villa and Michael Dutchover remain undefeated with wins in Ontario, California

PRESSEMEDDELELSE
PHILADELPHIA, PENN./ORANGE, Calif. (Syv. 25, 2017) – Heralded prospects, fjervægt Ruben Villa and junior lightweight Michael Dutchover remained perfect with unanimous decision victories this past Fredag night in Ontario, California.
Ruben Villa (8-0, 4 KOS) af Salinas, Calif. displayed his superior talent by out boxing veteran Ernesto Guerrero (26-20, 18 KOS) of Mexico through six rounds. Villa swept all three scorecards (60-54) to continue an impressive start to his young career.

In what was perhaps his toughest test to date, Villa performed admirably and displayed his quickness by darting in and out of danger, all the while landing power shots to the head and body.

We had a game plan for Guerrero, and we executed it perfectly,” Villa said. “We gave him different looks and fought him from different angles. I don’t think he ever got comfortable.

Villa is promoted by Banner Promotions and Thompson Boxing.

Dutchover (6-0, 4 KOS) of Midland, Tex. knocked down Mexico’s Carlos Flores (4-6-1, 3 KOS) in the opening round to get things going on his way to a unanimous decision sweep (40-35).

Throughout the fight, Dutchover snapped his left jab to set up an inside attack that left Flores bruised and battered by the fourth round.

I had a lot of success working off the jab,” sagde Dutchover, who is co-promoted by Banner Promotions and Thompson Boxing. “I’m happy with the win. I’ll rest for a little, and then I’ll be back in the gym working to get better.

Michael Dutchover retter på sparringsessioner med Oscar Valdez & Jessie Magdaleno

PRESSEMEDDELELSE
ORANGE, Calif. (Syv. 21, 2017) – Top junior letvægtsudsigt Michael Dutchover (5-0, 4 KOS) markerer hans tilbagevenden til ringen denne fredag nat mod Billede af Carlos Flores (4-5-1, 3 KOS) i en præsenteret 6-runde kamp på “Ny Blood” underkort.

Fem-kamp showet, forfremmet af Thompson Boxing Promotions, finder sted på Doubletree Hotel i Ontario, California.

Billetter til “Ny Blood” er prissat til $40, $60, & $100 og kan købes ved at ringe 714-935-0900, eller besøger ThompsonBoxing.com.

Dutchover, en dygtig amatør, der fik en bronzemedalje i USA. Olympiske forsøg i 2015 og en andenplads ved National Golden Gloves-konkurrencen et år senere, blev professionel sidste år og har allerede en fanvenlig stil.

Thompson Boxing fangede Midland, Tex. indfødt og fik sin tilgang til at flytte til Los Angeles-området, hvordan det var at sparre med to verdensmestre, og hans udsigter på fredagens kamp.

Din træningslejr var ulig nogen anden, idet du sparrede mod verdensmestre Oscar Valdez og Jessie Magdaleno, samt blue-chip udsigten Michael Conlan. Hvordan var det at gå imod et sådant talent på højt niveau?

“Sparring mod verdensmestre hæver dit spil og øger din selvtillid enormt. Jeg holdt mine egne de første par sessioner med Oscar og Jessie, og de kaldte mig tilbage til andre sessioner. Disse fyre forventer solidt arbejde, så jeg var glad for, at de bragte mig tilbage. Jeg får erfaring fra nogle af de bedste, så det er fantastisk. Det var også fantastisk sparring med Michael. Med disse tre var jeg i stand til at se forskellige stilarter, der vil hjælpe mig i min udvikling.”

Din modstander Carlos Flores har haft en ujævn karriere. Hvordan står du op til en kamp, ​​hvor du er den klare favorit?

“Du kan ikke tro, at enhver kamp bliver let. Hvis du ikke er klar til en kamp, ​​kan nogen få dig til at se dårlig ud. Denne sport er utilgivende på den måde. Jeg vil være på min “A” spil, og det vises Fredag.”

Tidligere på året traf du beslutningen om at flytte til Los Angeles-området og forlade din hjemby Midland, Tex. Hvad der har været den sværeste del af dette skridt?

“Jeg laver det, jeg elsker at gøre, og det indebærer altid ofre. Den sværeste del er at være væk fra venner og familie og være langt hjemmefra. Jeg vidste, at flytte til Los Angeles var det rigtige valg, for hvis du vil blive bedre, især i de lavere vægtklasser, dette område er stedet at være. På en given dag kan du sparre med udbydere og verdensmestre, så det har været fantastisk for mig.”

Hvordan kan du se fredagens kamp gå ned?

“Jeg kan forudsige en solid sejr for mig og mit hold. Jeg vil lade mine slag gå og bare være aktiv. Jeg arbejder ud af jabben for at åbne tingene op, og jeg vil vise et forbedret forsvar. Jeg ser det bedste ud, jeg har set hidtil. Så meget ved jeg.”

Dutchover fremmes af Banner Promotions og Thompson Boxing.

Alle fem kampe vil blive livestreamet på TB Presents: Nyt blod via vores Facebook-side og ThompsonBoxing.com.

Livestream starter kl 8:00 p.m. PT / 11:00 p.m. OG med Beto Duran som blow-by-blow-annoncøren og Steve Kim giver ekspertfarvekommentarer.

Elite Prospect Ruben Villa Battles Veteran Ernesto Guerrero Friday Night in Ontario, F.EKS

PRESSEMEDDELELSE
ORANGE, Calif. (Syv. 20, 2017) – Ruben Villa (7-0, 4 KOS), one of the featherweight division’s brightest young talents, takes the next step in his development by clashing with veteran Ernesto Guerrero (26-19, 18 KOS) in one of two highly anticipated match-ups på fredagens “Ny Blood” underkort.

The 6-round bout takes place at the Doubletree Hotel i Ontario, Calif.
Billetter til “Ny Blood” er prissat til $40, $60, & $100 og kan købes ved at ringe 714-935-0900 eller besøger ThompsonBoxing.com.

Villa, a southpaw fighting out of Salinas, Calif., turned professional last July and already has produced seven one-sided wins. His opponent for Friday, Mexico’s Guerrero, is no push over. Guerrero has won his last five fights, four of which ended in knockout fashion.

Guerrero’s a veteran so we’ve been extra serious in this camp,” sagde Villa. “My team believes that I can take him out. My team wouldn’t set me up against an opponent that I wouldn’t be able to handle so I feel ready for this challenge.

Villa, 20, loaded up on top-level sparring to help bridge the experience gap between him and Guerrero. He spent three weeks in Indio, Calif. sparring against elite competition such as unbeaten, world title contender Joseph Diaz.

The way Diaz puts his punches together was really impressive,” sagde Villa, som promoveres af Banner Promotions og Thompson Boxing. “Det var en stor og lærerig oplevelse for mig. It’s not every day you get to spar with someone with that high of a skill level.

In addition to the knowledge learned from the Diaz sessions, Villa is attempting to sharpen his mental focus for his fight against Guerrero.

I need to be more intelligent in the ring,” Villa said. “I’ve been a little reckless listening to the crowd and taking unnecessary risks. We sparred against bigger guys during this training camp to help me stay disciplined.

Også på “Ny Blood” underkort, advanced junior lightweight prospect Michael Dutchover (5-0, 4 KOS), who is a close friend and occasional sparring partner to Villa, slagsmål Billede af Carlos Flores (4-5-1, 3 KOS) in bout set for 6-rounds.

Like Villa, Dutchover comes from an outstanding amateur career and also shares the same promotional outfits in Banner Promotions and Thompson Boxing.

Alle fem kampe vil blive livestreamet på TB Presents: New Blood via Thompson Boxing Facebook page and ThompsonBoxing.com.

Livestream starter kl 8:00 p.m. PT / 11:00 p.m. OG med Beto Duran som blow-by-blow-annoncøren og Steve Kim giver ekspertfarvekommentarer.

LONG BEACH, Calif. (Juli 30, 2017) – Undefeated fjerlette udsigten Tramaine “The Mighty Midget” Williams made a major statement last night (Lørdag, Juli 29), dropping former world title challenger WilliamChirizo” Gonzalez three times in the opening round of a sensational performance in the “KO Night Boksning” Rumble on the Water 2″ main event, which aired live on CBS Sports Network from The Queen Mary’s outdoor venue in Long Beach, California.

“KO Night Boksning: Rumble on the Water 2was presented by Black Tree, and promoted by Roy Englebrecht Promotions, in association with KO Night Boxing LLC and Roc Nation Sports.
…..and the end for William Gonzalez
The 5′ 4″ Williams (12-0, 5 KOS), fighting out of New Haven (CT), exploded with pin-point accuracy, also displaying his new-found power, dropping Gonzalez 30-8, 26 KOS), of Nicaragua, three time in the first round. The crafty southpaw finished off his more experienced opponent with a perfectly placed right-left combination, right on the button, for his third and final knockdown. Referee Raul Caiz, Jr. waved off the action, not bothering to count, as Gonzalez lay vertical on his back in dire straits.
I prepared well for this fight and anything can happen when I work hard,” Williams remarked after his third consecutive knockout victory. “I felt his power early with a body shot but I stayed focused.
I can deal with anybody in my division. I want to fight Lee Selby (IBF featherweight world champion), or any of the world champions, but none will fight me. I really want Gary Russell (WBC champion); Jeg er her, Gary. It’ll be target practice for me.
I co-feature, highly touted super middleweight prospect JuniorThe Young God” Younan (13-0, 9 KOS) forblev ubesejret, winning a close eight-round decision against tough Mike “The Menace” Guy, af Sacramento (F.EKS), the former California State champion. (9-3-1, 5 KOS) Guy was penalized a point for tossing Younan to the mat at the end of round six or the result would have been a majority draw.
In his first eight-round fight, the 21-year-old Younan gained invaluable experience fighting the non-stop Guy, who kept coming forward, throwing punches from all angles, at his Brooklyn opponent.

Junior Younan (R) had a learning experience in victory against Mike Guy
You can’t learn if you don’t go rounds,” Younan correctly noted after the fight. “I’m only going to improve. Guy kept moving forward the entire fight. There were a couple of things that bothered me, but I went eight hard rounds and won. Thank you to Mike Guy for that.
Former Winthrop College (SC) basketballspiller Jonnie Rice (7-2-1, 4 KOS), fighting out of Los Angeles, opened the televised broadcast with a convincing six-round unanimous decision over RodneyKing Corso” Hernandez (10-6-2, 2 KOS), af Fresno (F.EKS).
I thought I did real well against a good opponent,” former power forward Rice said after the fightHe’s an athlete, getting better each fight. He’s not the same fighter he was a year ago. I’m becoming more strategic, working on my jab to get better. Basketball players need good footwork like Chris Paul and Lebron James. I’m working to bring my footwork from basketball to boxing,”
Hometown favorit Raul Calderon (1-0) pitched a shutout over Eric Gomez (0-1), winning a four-round unanimous decision (40-36 X 3), in a battle of pro-debuting Californians. In the walkout-fight, Los Angeles featherweight Sergio “El NinoQuiroz forbedret til 4-0 with a four-round unanimous decision over Lupe Arrotyo (2-7).
