“The Gallo” Jose Antonio Rivera to headline “Homecoming”

The Champ wabwerera!
August 17 pa The Palladium mu Worcester, MA
“The Gallo” Jose Antonio Rivera hitting the pads with his trainer Sean Fitzgerald

 

WORCESTER, Misa. (July 31, 2018) – A dozen years after he captured his third world title in two different weight classes, seven since his last fight, “The Gallo” Jose Rivera returns to the ring August 17 kuti litsogolera “Homecoming”, zoperekedwa ndi granite Chin Kukwezedwa (GCP) Pankhani yokhala ndi Rivera Zikondwerero (RPE), pa The Palladium mu Worcester, Massachusetts.

 

 

 

Wazaka 45 Rivera (41-6-1, 24 Ko) has already lost more than 30 mapaundi, now within four pounds of his contracted weight, since he started training earlier this year. He will headline against Ma rubeen “Wankhondo Wamakono” Gavan (27-26-4, 10 Ko) in the eight-round main event.

 

 

 

Mu 1997, Rivera captured the International Boxing Organization (IBO) World welterweight title, kukatseka Gilberto Flores mu kwachiwiri. Six years later, he traveled to Germany to take on undefeated, kwawo ankakonda Michel Trabant (38-0) for the vacant World Boxing Association (WBA) World Welterweight Championship, in which Rivera won a 12-round decision and the belt.

 

 

 

In front of nearly 10,000 hometown fans in Worcester, Rivera capped his boxing career by winning a 12-round unanimous decision in 2006 over defending champion Alejandro García(25-1) for the WBA World super welterweight title.

 

 

 

The idea to return to the ring started with my son. A.J., and I talking about chasing history,” Rivera anafotokoza. “We are not able to put that together right now (A.J. was born with Spina Bifida and he was unable to secure medical clearance in time for the Aug. 17TH show.), but because of my hard work these last six months, I felt that it was only fitting to continue with my fight.

 

 

 

Granite Chin Promotions has been very instrumental to make sure that this show is put together in the most professional manner possible. I won’t think our promotional company (Jos and A.J. own and operate RPE Promotions Entertainment) would have been able to pull this off. All the negotiations had to be done and me training the only way I know how, at a championship level, would have been too much for us to handle.

 

 

 

Grinite chin kukwezedwa’ co-promoter Chuck Shearns anawonjezera, “When Jose and I started talking about his ring return, I was the last person to think he was crazy. We were friends during his championship days and I know how incredibly committed and disciplined Jose is. I anamenyana pa 49 zaka, not to compare myself to the level Jose has been on, but I know that it can be done. What everyone should know is how well Jose has taken care of himself during his thirties and into his forties. Did I ever think that Chris (Traietti, GCP co-promoter) and I would be co-promoting Jose’s comeback? Osa, but I’m happy to be involved and I will support him as far as he wants to take this. He’s been training like he’s 25 and Jose’s going to surprise some people.

 

 

 

During Rivera’s title reigns, unlike other world champions, he also held a full-time job as a court officer in the Massachusetts Trial Court, a position in Worcester that he still holds 17 years later. Between working and training, never mind his family responsibilities, Jose somehow manages to balance everything in his extremely busy life.

 

 

 

Let’s just say it makes for a busy schedule,” Rivera remarked. “I am committed to taking care of my family and will do whatever it takes. I usually run before work and train after work. Starting early and finishing late makes for busy days, but the job needs to get done. Pompano, I’m in the middle of the hardest period of training. The week of the fight is more about preparing mentally and making weight. There’s nothing you can do the week of the fight to help you get into better shape.

 

 

 

Rivera isn’t under any illusions that his comeback will lead to another major world title. The plan is for him to have two more fights to reach a total of 50 monga ovomereza, but he’s taking things one fight at a time, and he still hopes his next fight, tentatively slated for later this year, will be on the same card as his son’s pro debut.

 

 

 

Rivera omaliza kumenya nawo 2011, kutenga lingaliro lozungulira eyiti Paul MPTO, ku Mohegan Strenna ku Connecticut. The battle-tested Galvan, his Aug. 17TH opponent from Indiana, has fought other world champions, Including Zab Yuda, Julio Cesar Chavez, Jr., Jorge Paez ndipo Paul Spadafora.

 

 

 

I hear he comes to fight and that he likes to fool around a bit to try and get into his opponent’s head,” Rivera added. I’ve concentrated on me, my timing and focus on the game plan

 

 

 

Training for this fight has been more mental than anything else. I have been able to reach peak performance at 45 training like I did in my prime. The most important thing is that, working with my trainer Sean Fitzgerald, I’ve been focused on making sure my timing gets better since it’s been seven years since I last fought.

 

 

 

“Ndipo, kumene, it’s always a great feeling to box in front of my hometown fans. Their support is always appreciated.

 

 

 

Dzina la mwambowu ndi “Homecoming” because six fighters in action are from Worcester, kuphatikiza atatu omwe sanamenyepo komweko kale ngati akatswiri.
