Decorated U.S. amateur boxer Angel Gonzalez, Jr. to make pro debut on “Fight Night In Framingham” card
Fighting Life charity event,
Marec 20th at Sheraton Hotel
FRAMINGHAM, Hmota. (Marec 4, 2020) – The long-awaited professional debut of decorated amateurAngel Gonzalez, Jr. will take place Friday night, Marec 20, on the “Fight Night In Framingham” card, presented by Shearns Boxing Promotions (SBP), at Sheraton Framingham Hotel in Framingham, Massachusetts.
“Fight Night In Framingham”, the first pro boxing event ever in Framingham, is being held for the benefit ofFighting Life, an after-school youth boxing and academic empowerment program, available 100-percent free of charge, to students beginning in elementary school through high school education.
Gonzalez hasn’t fought in three years, since he moved from his native Hartford, CT to Florida. “It took me a while to settle in after I moved to Florida,” Gonzalez explained. “I’ve been going to a gym and now I’m on track and coming back to turn pro. I have the talent for bigger and better things.”
The 26-year-olldf super flyweight had a 45-6 amatérsky záznam, highlighted by three New England Golden Gloves, two Ringside National and 2014 National PAL championships.
The problem for Gonzalez, hoci, is finding appropriate opponents, especially where he was a standout amateur. Right now, he’s still without a signed opponent, largely because there are so few 115-pound boxers in America outside of California and the Southwest. “Most super flyweights are from Mexico, Japonsko, or other foreign countries,” Gonzalez said. “It doesn’t matter to me who I fight. I can slug or box, depending on my opponent. If he’s taller, I’ll fight on the inside; if shorter, I’ll box from the outside. I’ll adjust to my opponent. My best punch is my right. It’s solid and deadly.”
“I’ve offered this fight to guys with 5 na 10 fights and after consideration,” promoterChuck Shearns explained, “they have declined to fight Angel. These lower weight classes can be hard enough to match, never mind against Angel. What you find is that these smaller guys need to step up their competition earlier than other weight classes, because it’s simply a smaller pool of fighters. We will see what Angel has very early in his career.”
Two unbeaten pro “graduates” of the Fighting Life Boxing Program, super featherweightsTimmy Ramos (5-0-2, 5 KO) aNelson “Chino” Perez (2-0, 2 KO), bude v akcii, príslušne, in the main event and co-featured event.

The 45-year-old Rivera (42-6-1, 25 KO), 35 pounds lighter than he was in February when he started training, packed the house in his hometown, fully entertained his supportive fans. Three-time, two-division world champion Rivera pressured Larry “Slomoshun: Kovář (10-38-1, 7 KO) from the opening bell and he never let up.
It took a few rounds for Rivera to wear off the rust, but he fed Smith a steady diet of body shots, gradually breaking down his opponent, as he won round after round on points. Twice in the sixth round it looked like Smith was done, but the tough Texan showed a lot of heart to survive.
Konečne, Rivera closed the show in the seventh round, when Smith broke his hand in the fifth round and was unable to continue, kneeling in his corner, obviously in pain.
“I’ve always been tough,” Rivera said after the fight, “but I was a little rusty. He tested me early but, once he saw I wasn’t going anywhere and knew he was in for a fight. I started warming up in the fourth round. I was always a 12-round fighter. I didn’t know he broke his hand until after the fight. Cítim sa skvele. We gave a good fight to the fans who have always supported me.”
“I give myself a C+ tonight. I’m going to talk with my family, ale myslím ešte na jeden súboj, urobiť to 50 pre svoju profesionálnu kariéru).”

Populárny Ball bojoval doma prvýkrát ako profesionál
Odvetný zápas medzi juniorskou strednou váhou Worcesteru Khiary Greyová (16-4, 12 KO) a Antonio Chaves Fernandez (9-34, 4 KO) skončili rovnakým spôsobom ako ich prvé stretnutie pred tromi rokmi.

Fernandez prekonal počet, ale rozhodca Bob Benoit zastavil akciu.

“Gallo” Jose Antonio Rivera to headline “Návrat domov”
Champ je späť!

WORCESTER, Hmota. (Júl 31, 2018) – A dozen years after he captured his third world title in two different weight classes, seven since his last fight, “Gallo” Jozef Rivera returns to the ring August 17 na titulok “Návrat domov”, v podaní Granite Chin Promotions (GCP) v spolupráci s Rivera Promotions Entertainment (RPE), The Palladium vo Worcesteri, Massachusetts.
Ten 45-ročný Rivera (41-6-1, 24 KO) has already lost more than 30 libier, now within four pounds of his contracted weight, since he started training earlier this year. He will headline against Ruben “Moderný bojovník” Galvan (27-26-4, 10 KO) v osemkolovom hlavnom turnaji.
V 1997, Rivera captured the International Boxing Organization (IBO) World welterweight title, zastavenie Gilberto Flores v druhom kole. Six years later, he traveled to Germany to take on undefeated, rodné mesto obľúbená Michel Trabant (38-0) for the vacant World Boxing Association (WBA) Majstrovstvá sveta vo welterovej váhe, v ktorom Rivera vyhral 12-kolové rozhodnutie a opasok.
Takmer pred 10,000 fanúšikov rodného mesta vo Worcestri, Rivera zavŕšil svoju boxerskú kariéru víťazstvom v 12-kolovom jednomyseľnom rozhodnutí 2006 nad obhajcom titulu Alejandro Garcia(25-1) o titul WBA v super welterovej váhe.
“Myšlienka vrátiť sa do ringu začala u môjho syna. A.J., a hovorím o prenasledovaní histórie,” Rivera je vysvetlené. “Momentálne to nevieme dať dokopy (A.J. sa narodil s rázštepom chrbtice a nebol schopný zabezpečiť lekárske vyšetrenie včas do augusta. 17th šou.), ale kvôli mojej tvrdej práci za posledných šesť mesiacov, Cítil som, že je vhodné pokračovať v boji.
“Propagácia Granite Chin bola veľmi nápomocná pri zabezpečení toho, aby bola táto show zostavená čo najprofesionálnejším spôsobom. Nemyslím si, že naša propagačná spoločnosť (Jos a A.J. vlastní a prevádzkuje RPE Promotions Entertainment) by to bol schopný zvládnuť. Museli sa uskutočniť všetky rokovania a ja som trénoval jediný spôsob, ako viem, na majstrovskej úrovni, bolo by toho príliš veľa, aby sme to zvládli.”
Akcie na žulu bradu’ spolupromotér Chuck Shearns pridaný, “Keď sme sa s Josem začali rozprávať o návrate jeho prsteňa, Bol som posledný, kto si myslel, že sa zbláznil. Boli sme priatelia počas jeho majstrovských dní a viem, aký je Jose neuveriteľne odhodlaný a disciplinovaný. Bojoval som u 49 rokov, aby som sa neporovnával s úrovňou, na ktorej bol Jose, ale viem, že sa to dá. Každý by mal vedieť, ako dobre sa o seba Jose staral počas svojej tridsiatky a štyridsiatky. Myslel som si to niekedy? Chris (Traietti, spolupromotér GCP) a ja by som bol spolupropagátorom Joseho comebacku? Do Not, ale som rád, že môžem byť zapojený a budem ho podporovať, pokiaľ to bude chcieť. Trénoval ako on 25 a Jose prekvapí niektorých ľudí.”
Počas vlády Riveraho titulu, na rozdiel od iných majstrov sveta, zastával tiež prácu na plný úväzok ako súdny úradník v Massachusetts Trial Court, pozíciu vo Worcestri, ktorú si stále drží 17 rokov neskôr. Medzi prácou a tréningom, nezabúda na jeho rodinné povinnosti, Josemu sa akosi darí všetko vo svojom mimoriadne rušnom živote vybalansovať.
“Povedzme, že to vedie k nabitému programu,” poznamenal Rivera. “Som odhodlaný postarať sa o svoju rodinu a urobím všetko, čo bude potrebné. Pred prácou väčšinou behávam a po práci trénujem. Začať skoro a skončiť neskoro znamená rušné dni, ale prácu treba dokončiť. Práve teraz, Som uprostred najťažšieho obdobia tréningu. Týždeň boja je skôr o psychickej príprave a priberaní. Počas týždňa boja nemôžete urobiť nič, čo by vám pomohlo dostať sa do lepšej formy.”
Rivera si nerobí ilúzie, že jeho comeback povedie k ďalšiemu veľkému svetovému titulu. V pláne je, že bude mať ešte dva súboje, aby dosiahol súčet 50 ako pre, ale berie veci jeden boj za druhým, a stále dúfa v ďalší boj, predbežne naplánované na koniec tohto roka, bude na rovnakej karte ako profesionálny debut jeho syna.
Rivera naposledy bojoval 2011, prijatie osemkolového rozhodnutia Paul Mpendo, v Mohegan Sun Arena v Connecticute. Bojom preverený Galvan, jeho aug. 17th súpera z Indiany, bojoval s ďalšími majstrami sveta, Počítajúc do toho Zab Judah, Julio Cesar Chavez, Jr., Jorge Paez a Paul Spadafora.
“Počul som, že prichádza bojovať a že sa rád trochu poblázni, aby sa pokúsil dostať do hlavy svojho súpera,” dodal Rivera. Sústredil som sa na seba, moje načasovanie a zameranie sa na herný plán
“Tréning na tento boj bol viac mentálny ako čokoľvek iné. Bol som schopný dosiahnuť špičkový výkon pri 45 trénovať ako v najlepších rokoch. Najdôležitejšie je, že, pracovať s mojím trénerom Sean Fitzgerald, Zameral som sa na to, aby sa moje načasovanie zlepšilo, pretože uplynulo sedem rokov, čo som naposledy bojoval.
“A, samozrejme, Je to vždy skvelý pocit boxovať pred fanúšikmi môjho rodného mesta. Ich podpora je vždy ocenená.”
Názov podujatia je “Návrat domov” pretože šesť bojovníkov v akcii je z Worcesteru, vrátane troch, ktorí tam nikdy predtým nebojovali ako profesionáli.
Middleweight Kendrick Ball, Jr. (9-1-2, 6 KO) a juniorskej strednej váhy Khiary Greyová (15-4, 11 KO), obe propagované CES Boxing, bude bojovať doma vo Worcesteri ako profíci po prvý raz v dvojici šesťkolových súbojov.

New England cruiserweight champion Chris Traietti (26-4, 21 KO), also the co-promoter, pounded “Jammin” James Morrow (12-23-3, 5 KO) from pillar to post until referee Leo Gerstel halted the action in their non-title fight for a third-round technical knockout.
Irish junior welterweight Paddy McGee, fighting out of Dorchester, MA, landed only two punches in his pro debut, both flooring Bardraiel Smith (0-4), for a quick first-round knockout.
