Richard “Popeye sjömansmannen” Rivera
Bra att avsluta eftersom han äter sin spenat
Russell Kimber vinner proffsdebut
HAMPTON, N.H. (December 9, 2017) — Färgglad lätt tungviktsprospekt Richard “Popeye The Sailor Man” Rivera förblev obesegrad (5-0, 4 Kos), veteran Roberto “The Old” Valenzuela, igår kväll (Lör) i “Rulla på The RIM” main event, Presenterat av Kampanjer i granithaken, på RIM Sports Complex i Hampton, New Hampshire.
Rivera, slåss ut från Hartford (CT), kontrollerade handlingen från öppningsklockan mot sin stridstestade motståndare från Mexiko, som hade en enorm erfarenhetsfördel i sin 147th pro-kamp, jämfört med Riveras femma.
Valenzuela tillbringade större delen av tiden vid repen, medan Rivera teed-off på honom, tills en vackert placerad vänsterkrok av Rivera prydde Valenzuela, som misslyckades med att resa sig förrän efter domaren Mike Ryan avslutade 10-räkningen.
En busslast med Riveras fans körde fem timmar från Hartford genom en snöstorm, anländer precis innan Rivera gick in i ringen. “Det betyder mycket för mig,” Rivera log när han pratade om sina fans. “Vi är mer än ett gym, vi är familj.
“Jag var så van vid en amatörstil men nu är jag ett proffs. Jag slappnar av och slår mina slag. Nästa, Jag vill vinna New England-titeln. Det är tomt och jag vill ha det!”
“Det här var vår första show i New Hampshire och jag ser det som en succé,” medarrangör Chuck Shearns sa, “trots att vissa saker går emot oss som kvällens väder. Vi är tacksamma för det stöd vi fick från Hampton, New Hampshire, kommissionen och lokala företag. De arbetade med oss ​​och vi kan inte vänta med att återvända.”
Son och brorson till flerfaldiga världsmästare i kickboxning – pappa Tommy och farbror – arbetade sitt hörn — Peabody, MA Russell Kimber hade en lovande proffsdebut mot tuffa Nathan Schulte i en match som tävlades på en 185-pund catchweight. Den 32-åriga Kimber, som var publikens favorit efter att ha bott flera år i New Hampshire, övervann den målmedvetna Schulte för en hårt kämpad seger genom ett majoritetsbeslut i fyra omgångar.
“Jag var lite nervös över att detta var min första gång i en proffsring,” Kimber erkände efter sitt slagsmål. “Jag hade inte varit i en ring för 1 ½ år och det var lite ringrost. Nu, Jag vet vad jag behöver för att bli bra, och jag kommer att bli mycket bättre nästa match. Det här var mitt första läger och jag har lärt mig mycket. Jag vill vara upptagen, kom tillbaka i slutet av januari, början av februari.”
obesegrade Whitman, MA junior weltervikt prospekt Mike “Dålig man” JE, Jr.laddas över ringen, lossning av en kraftfull rättighet som omedelbart skickades Bardraiel Smith till duken. Smith reste sig på något sätt men Ohan avslutade snabbt Smiths natt, bara 30 sekunder in i omgång ett, som domare Ryan vinkade av handlingen.
New Englands mästare i cruiservikt och showens medarrangör, Irakkrigsveteran Chris Traietti (25-5, 19 Kos) utklassade Fabian Valdez på väg mot vinst genom knockout i andra omgången i en upptagen kamp för att avsluta 2017. I en kamp utan titel som tävlades i en 185-pounds catchweight, Quincy, MA-baserade Traietti golvade sin mexikanska motståndare med en rak höger mitt i den inledande omgången, avslutar showen i den andra omgången med en rad obesvarade slag.
Den enda infödda New Hampshire på kortet, Claremont junior mellanvikt Ricky Ford(1-1-1) vann sin första proffskamp, tar en skev, enhälligt beslut i fyra omgångar över proffs MMA-fighter Andy Aiello, som gjorde sin proffsboxningsdebut.
I ännu en upptagen kamp, tidigare världsrankad Ryan “Den polska Prince” Kielczweski(27-3, 9 Kos), slåss ut av Quincy (MA), behövde bara 51 sekunder för att avsluta mexikansk lättvikt Francisco “Apan” Medalj. Kielczweski slog Medal med a med en dödlig kvar till kroppen, lämnar medaljen i uppenbar smärta och oförmögen att resa sig före 10-tal.
New Jersey mellanvikt Chris “John blund” Thomas (7-0-1, 4 Kos) höll sitt obesegrade proffsrekord intakt med ett avbrott i andra omgången Demetrius Thomas. Thomas använde en snabbskjutskombination för att släppa Thomas, som slog greven, men han höll på att hamra när domaren Ryan stoppade kampen sent i andra ronden.

JARON “BOOTS” ENNIS STOPS ROBERT HILL FOR THIRTEENTH VICTORY

Lämna en kommentar
One of boxing’s most exciting prospects, Ennis returns August 12th i Washington DC
PRESSMEDDELANDE

Philadelphia – Juni 27, 2017 – Victory Boxing Promotions’ most talked-about prospect, Jaron “Boots” Ennis, has much to celebrate for his 20th birthday today. The Philadelphia welterweight secured his 13th win at the Durham Armory in North Carolina last Thursday, besting Robert Hill over three rounds.

Hill, a veteran of forty fights, came to Durham just one fight removed from an impressive upset victory over the Dominican Republic’s Eudy Bernardo (21-2, 15KO). After three rounds that included Ennis’ trademark punishment to the body, Hill’s corner declined to send him back into the ring for the fourth round, handing Ennis his 13th victory, and his 11th by stoppage.

“I only got hit one time during the fight,” said Ennis. “I went in there, and had fun like I always do. He backed up the whole time. When I first came, I was touching him to the body a lot, and that slowed him down. He didn’t come out for the fourth round.”

Ennis returns to the ring in the co-main event August 12th at Nations Fight Night at the historic Howard Theatre in Washington DC. Ennis will be the co-feature in what will be his first eight-round bout. “I’m thankful to have been so busy since my debut,” said Ennis. “It keeps me sharp, and I’m excited for my first eight rounder. I’m ready to show more of my talent, and the results of my hard work.”

Tickets for Nations Fight Night are priced $60-2000, and are available through Ticketmaster. Dörrar för händelsen öppen 6:00 p.m. and the first bell is at 7:00 p.m.på August 12th.

“I am looking forward to a great fight on Saturday. I am not taking Velasquez lightly as he is a tough veteran who has had 54 slagsmål,” sade Lamanna. “Efter att jag vunnit, I want something big. Myself and Rising Promotions have regional title bouts in mind. Fights with Zab Judah and Kermit Cintron have been brought up. The ultimate goal is to get world rated, and climb up the ladder with meaningful fights that I would like to take place in Atlantic City.”
“Because I have two losses, I get calls all the time to be an opponent. I don’t look at myself as being one. I am one of the biggest, if not the biggest tickets seller in New Jersey, with a tremendous fan base, and myself and my Rising Promotions team would like to capitalize on that and move me along like a real promotional company is supposed to move a fighter. Atlantic City is a great fight town, and I think that we can bring the type of bouts back to the boardwalk that made this town the mecca of boxing that it once was.
