Ósigraður tilvonandi Richard “Páfi The Sailor Man” Rivera tekur athöfn sína suður

HARTFORD, Conn. (Nóvember 26, 2018) – Ósigraðir möguleikar Richard “Páfi The Sailor Man” Rivera mun taka leik sinn suður á föstudagskvöldið, þegar hann berst Joshua Robertson í a “vertu upptekinn” berjast á “Boxing Bash” kort, kynnt af Christy Martin Promotions, og Centerstage@Noda í Charlotte, North Carolina.

 

 

 

Rivera vs. Robertson, keppt í 185 punda aflaþyngd, verður kynnt af verkefnisstjóra Rivera, Hartford hnefaleikatilboð.

 

 

 

Rivera (8-0, 7 Kos), ríkjandi hnefaleikasambandi (UBF) All America léttþungavigtarmeistari, er hluti af tríói sem stofnaði Hartford Boxing Promotions fyrr á þessu ári, þar á meðal framkvæmdastjóri/aðalþjálfari Rivera Tony Blanco og maka þeirra, Michael Tran.

 

 

Að berjast frá Hartford (CT), Rivera hefur endurnært þann markað, Rík hnefaleikasaga hans nær næstum heila öld aftur í tímann, undir fyrirsögn International Hall of Famers Willie “Mun o’ the Wisp” Pep og KristóferAð berjast” Battalino. Aðrir efstu hnefaleikamenn eru heimsmeistarar Marlon “Magic Man” Stari, áskorun titill heim Gaspar “Indverjinn” Ortega, og Ísrael “frekar” Cardona, og 1996 Fyrirliði bandaríska ólympíuliða í hnefaleikum Lawrence Clay-Bey.

 

 

 

Nú, þó, það er kominn tími Rivera til að skína. Án efa erfiðast, vinsælasti bardagakappinn á Nýja Englandi, Rivera sló Randy Campbell svo erfitt í apríl síðastliðnum í New Hampshire að krafturinn í kraftmiklum hægri hans braut ökkla andstæðingsins aðeins nokkrum sekúndum af keppninni..

 

 

Rivera hefur þróað sterkan aðdáendahóp um Nýja England og nú er hann að koma með sitt “Popeye” persóna fyrir sunnan í fyrsta sinn. “Þetta er gott tækifæri til að auka „Popeye“ minn’ vörumerki,” sagði Rivera. “Síðasti bardagi minn var í Mexíkó og þessi bardagi er í Norður-Karólínu. Við erum á leiðinni til að fara um allan heim. Ég á mikla fjölskyldu í Norður-Karólínu, Fayetteville og Raleigh, svo ég verð ekki einn þarna niðri.

 

 

 

“Ég tel 2019 verður ekki mikið öðruvísi en fyrsta árið mitt sem atvinnumaður. Ég mun fá mikið af slagsmálum og ég held það, um næstu áramót, Ég mun berjast fyrir einhverju stóru. Ég held mér í toppformi ef gott tækifæri gefst. Ég er sjálfsörugg og hef virkilega notið góðs af því Joe Smithsparring félagi. Þessi bardagi snýst um að vera skarpur því mér líkar ekki að hafa of mikið frí. Ætlunin er að berjast í öðrum landshluta, fá sigur, og haldast svo í toppformi.”

 

 

 

Hinn geysivinsæli Rivera fékk upphaflega gælunafn sitt vegna þess, þegar hann var yngri, Framhandleggir hans voru töluvert stærri en biceps hans. Bardagamenn í ræktinni stríttu Rivera í gríni vegna stækkaðra framhandleggja hans, að hringja í hann “Popeye,” og gælunafnið hefur fest sig. Nú, Rivera sýnir Popeye persónu sína á fullu, sem hefur bætt mörgum konum og börnum við vaxandi aðdáendahóp hans, og hann rekur vinninga sína til að borða spínatið sitt til að vera gott til enda.

 

 

 

“Bardagamenn í dag þurfa að vera meira en hæfileikaríkir,” bætti verkefnisstjóra Christy “Dóttir kolahugans” Martin, tveggja deilda heimsmeistari sem var frumkvöðull í hnefaleikum kvenna. Ég hef ekki séð hann (Rivera) berjast enn, en ég hef verið hrifinn af því sem ég hef heyrt um hann. Hann er frábær viðbót við kortið okkar. Rivera er stór strákur með kraft og allir vilja sjá stóra stráka. En hann er líka klár, markaðslega séð, með því að nota „Popeye.’ Hann fær það.”

 

 

 

Blanco tengdist Martin í gegnum samfélagsmiðla og, eins og hann útskýrði, þaðan gekk allt snurðulaust til að setja Rivera á það kort. “We want to keep Richard busy and then have a breakout year in 2019,Blanco noted. “The beauty of Richard is that he stays busy and works hard, sometimes when he’s training by himself. Boxing is his job and I believe he’s destined for greatness.

 

 

 

Robertson (7-11, 2 Kos), af Lynchburg, Virginia, has fought the likes of unified world junior middleweight champion Jarrett Hurd, former USBA middleweight title holder Luis Arias, and ex- WBC FECARBOX welterweight titlist Thomas Lamanna.

 

 

 

Miðar eru verðlagðar á $70.00 (Ringside) og $35.00 (general admission and available to purchase at the venue.

 

 

 

Húsið opnar kl 6 p.m. ET with the first bout scheduled to start at 7 p.m. OG.

 

 

 

Öll berst og bardagamenn eru háð breytingum.

Tickets for LFA 17 – Moisés vs. Watley are available for purchase NOW. You can support your favorite fighter by purchasing your tickets through CrownTickets.com and selecting their name at checkout.
Moisés (9-1) is one of the most dominant champions in RFA history. This is a promotion that has sent champions such as Sergio Pettis, Pedro Munhoz, and Brian Ortega to the UFC. The 22-year-old Brazilian dominated in all four of his RFA fights, but his title winning performance at RFA 35 is perhaps the most memorable. Moisés utilized an ultra-rare Helicopter Armbar to submit David Castillo to capture the vacant title. Highlights of the submission went viral and he was subsequently nominated forSubmission of the Yearat the annual World MMA Awards in Las Vegas. Moisés then defended his title twice and was featured on Dana White: LookinFor A Fight during his first title defense. He is now looking to add the inaugural LFA lightweight title to his ever-growing list of accomplishments.
Watley (7-1) is widely considered the top lightweight prospect on the east coast. The Maryland native is currently riding a seven-fight win streak that has wreaked havoc along the eastern seaboard to the point that movie buffs are now looking to amend the famous quote from Wedding Crashers: “Crabcakes, Football, and MMA. That’s what Maryland does!” Watley is looking to win a third MMA title in four consecutive title fights. Hins, this will be the most prestigious title that he has vied for and he sees the LFA title as his proof that he his the undisputed top lightweight prospect in the sport. The surging Baltimore battering ram put theharmin Charm City and now looks to do the same further south as he heads to North Carolina to fight for the inaugural LFA lightweight tile.
Co-helsta viðburði LFA 17 will feature a heated border war and long-awaited rematch between top bantamweight prospects from North Carolina and Virginia, when Dylan Cala (5-1) looks to avenge the lone loss on his record against longtime rival Tony Gravely (9-4). Cala is a highly-touted prospect fromThe Tar Heel State”. He is looking to defend his home turf and even the score against the only man to defeat him. That man would be Gravely, who is an NCAA Division I wrestler who grew up just north of the border in Virginia.
In the women’s bantamweight division, Alexa Conners (4-1) returns to the LFA Octagon after an exciting and triumphant performance at LFA 8. That bout served as the first televised MMA fight to take place in her home state of South Carolina. The 26-year-old now heads north of the border where she will welcome one of Brazil’s top female prospects to the Carolinas.
Talita de Oliveira (5-1) has competed five times in her native Brazil and once in Europe. Her most recent bout was a first round win in Poland, which took place one day after Connersmost recent bout at LFA 8. The 30-year-old Brazilian submission expert is now set to make her North American debut against one of the division’s top American prospects as she faces Conners at LFA 17.
LFA 17 will also feature the promotional debut of Nathan “Mayhem” Maness (8-0), who is one of the top bantamweight prospects in the country. The 25-year-old regional champion is widely considered one of the south’s most promising talents. After the first two opponents he signed on to face withdrew due to various reasons, the third scheduled opponent is expected to be named soon.
