В SHOWTIME ЧЕМПИОНАТ БОКС® tripleheader card, the 23-year-old Benavídez (23-0, 20 КО) – who lost his WBC world title belt on the scale on Friday – scored a stoppage victory against the former world title challenger Angulo (26-2, 22 КО), whose corner threw in the towel after the 10й круглый.

“I rate myself a solid eight,” Benavidez said. “I could have done some stuff better, but overall it was a great performance. I didn’t want to go too fast and leave myself exposed for some big shots. He’s a heavy puncher. Но, как я сказал,, I like to do the stuff that nobody has ever done. Nobody has ever stopped him and I’m pretty sure nobody is ever going to make him look like that again. I demolished him from round one to round 10.”

A seven-year pro at the age of 23, Benavidez landed 56 percent of his power punches in the fight and averaged 29 из 70 punches thrown per round. Benavidez closed the show by landing a career high 54 punches in round 10.

Colombia’s Angulo, в настоящее время борются Майами, Штат Флорида., entered his second world title opportunity riding a three-fight winning streak, but was unable to come counter anything Benavidez threw at him.

Benavidez said he was disappointed and embarrassed by not making the 168-pound weight limit on Friday. “Everything everyone said about me is true,” Benavidez said. “I should be a professional and come in on weight, but this time I couldn’t do it. It’s my first time not making weight in eight years of being a professional.”

“I really have to talk to my promoter to see what’s next,»Бенавидес добавил. “I’ll fight anybody to get back to the spot I was. You could see by this performance tonight, I could put on a great performance against anybody and people will pay to see that. I’m probably going to go right back into training camp to make sure I don’t miss weight.”

В со-главном событии, rising lightweight Rolando “Rolly” Romero (12-0, 10 КО) scored a controversial unanimous decision over previously fellow unbeaten Jackson Maríñez (19-1, 7 КО) to capture the interim WBA Lightweight Title. Оценки были 115-113, 116-112 и 118-110, all in favor of Romero.
(For highlights, щелчок ВОТ).

The story of the fight was Maríñez’s reliable jabs as the Dominican fighter won the battle in that department (14 percent compared to Romero’s 10 процентов). It was Romero, однако, who held the advantage on power punches connecting on 24 процентов (31 из 228) по сравнению с 18 percent for Maríñez (72 из 401).

“I don’t think I had a bad performance,»Сказал Ромеро, who confidently predicted a brutal knockout would end the bout in his pre-fight comments. "Я думал, что я выиграл бой. Regardless of everything, I’m the world champ now. Я счастлив. "

Romero suffered a slight cut above his left eye in the ninth round on a head butt, but it didn’t seem to affect his performance in the championship rounds. “He came out a little bit tougher and slicker than what I thought,- сказал Ромеро. “But all he did was move around the entire fight. He didn’t even try to engage. It’s hard to knock out someone who doesn’t try to engage. I hurt him multiple times with body shots and a few hooks. There was one moment I hurt him with a right hand and he pulled my head down. It was just hard to finish him off.

"Да [I would give him a rematch]. He didn’t do anything special.”

The 29-year-old Maríñez, who holds the WBA’s No. 6 ранжирование, is trained by Robert Garcia, who was not present in the Maríñez’s corner electing not to travel cross country from his Southern California home.

“That was pure robbery,” Maríñez said. «Я выиграл бой. I out-jabbed, out-boxed him. You could tell he didn’t think he won the fight right afterwards. It’s a robbery.”

В первом бою телепередачи, heavyweight contender Otto Wallin recorded a TKO at 2:32 of the fifth round against Travis Kauffman, who re-tore his left labrum at the start of the fifth round and was unable to lift his arm. Referee Michael Ortega signaled the end of the fight and afterwards Kauffman announced he was retiring from boxing, just days ahead of his 35й день рождения.

29-летний Wallin (21-1, 14 КО) who had a four-inch height advantage over Kauffman, said he felt for the injured Kauffman, but was dominating the fight. “I was breaking him down. I had a lot left,»Сказал Валлин. “Too bad he hurt his shoulder in the end, but I was breaking him and hitting him with good clean shots.”

Wallin looked sharp in his return to the ring for the first time since he nearly defeated Tyson Fury in September 2019. Он приземлился 12 jabs per round and 54 percent of his power shots throughout the fight. Currently living in New York City and originally Representing his native Sundsvall, Швеция, Wallin had former champion Joey Gamache in his corner for the bout.

Both fighters have recovered from injury in the recent past, as well as the COVID-19 virus. “I didn’t feel anything from COVID,»Сказал Валлин. “I had great training. I was sick in March, but COVID didn’t hit me very hard. I was lucky. I’m sorry for everyone who lost their lives due to COVID.

“I want to go back to New York next and relax a little bit. I’ve been training for a long time now, almost a year. So I want to relax a little bit and hopefully I can fight again by the end of the year.”

The 34-year-old Kauffman (32-4, 23 КО) from Reading, Па., was fighting for the first time in five years and seven fights without his trainer Naazim Richardson, who died unexpectedly last month. После боя, Kauffman said he was retiring from boxing.

“I tore my left labrum getting ready for the [Луис] Ortiz fight,” Kauffman said. “Like a dummy, I waited five months to have surgery on it after the Ortiz fight [December of 2018]. I started feeling better and was going to do a tune-up fight in March, but then COVID happened. This opportunity came up and I didn’t want to pass it up and I felt good. In the first round I hurt it. I felt it, but then it went away and I thought maybe it’s just my mind and it went away. Then in the fifth round I heard it and that was it. It was torn again.

“I’m done. I’m retiring. I have kids. I’ve been doing this a long time,” Kauffman said.

“David Benavídez will look to keep his perfect record intact, continue to display his superstar potential and further cement his positioning in the stacked 168-pound division,»Сказал Том Браун, Президент TGB Акции. “As an undefeated world champ, Benavídez can expect a strong challenge from Alexis Angulo, which should create an action-packed main event on SHOWTIME. Combined with a battle of hungry unbeaten lightweights in ‘Rolly’ Romero and Jackson Maríñez, plus a heavyweight slugfest between Otto Wallin and Travis Kauffman, this shapes up to be another can’t miss night of high-stakes action.”

“It’s going to be great to be in the corner of David ‘El Bandera Roja’ Benavídez on fight night,сказал Сэмпсон Левкович из Sampson Boxing, who is recovering from a recent surgery. “I feel so good and so strong and I truly can’t wait to be there to support the youngest super middleweight champion in history.”

Мероприятие проводится при поддержке TGB Promotions и Sampson Boxing.. The Romero vs. Maríñez bout is co-promoted by Mayweather Promotions.

The 23-year-old Benavídez (22-0, 19 КО) defends his belt after defeating two-time super middleweight champion Anthony Dirrell in September, stopping him in nine rounds. Benavidez is trained by his father José Sr., вместе со своим братом и бывшим претендентом на титул, Хосе младший. В 2017, он стал самым молодым чемпионом в суперсреднем весе в истории бокса, победив Рональда Гаврила на SHOWTIME всего за 20 лет. Представляя своего родного Феникса, Аризона. Бенавидес ушел из 15-летнего вундеркинда в спарринге с Геннадием Головкиным и Питером Куиллином., к претенденту на титул чемпиона мира с серией нокаутов из 10 боев 2015 через 2017, including a highlight-reel knockout of Rogelio Medina with a seven-punch combination that earned him his first championship fight.

“It’s been almost a year since the last time I fought, so I’m very eager to get back in the ring and give the fans a great fight,- сказал Бенавидес. “Training camp has been amazing. К счастью, my dad opened his own gym just before the pandemic, so we’ve had private training and been able to safely bring in sparring partners to help me work. I’m facing a very tricky and rugged fighter, so I’m taking him very seriously. I feel like I can take advantage of some openings in his defense and look for the knockout like I do every fight.”

Born in El Bordo, Colombia and now fighting out of Miami, Штат Флорида., Ангуло (26-1, 22 КО) enters his second world title opportunity on a three-fight winning streak, including two triumphs over previously unbeaten fighters. Angulo stopped Reinaldo Gonzalez in 2018 in his first fight since losing a decision to then-super middleweight champion Gilberto Ramirez earlier that year. He scored a decision victory this January over Anthony Sims Jr. to put himself in position to again challenge the best in the division.

“I’m ready for anything that happens in the ring on August 15,” said Angulo. “This is going to be a great fight for the fans because of the style I bring to the ring. Benavidez is a strong champion, but my style will be too much for him and I will have my hand raised on fight night.”

Борьба из Лас-Вегаса, Nev., Romero(11-0, 10 КО) added three knockout victories to his tally in 2019 before his 2020 debut saw him stop previously unbeaten Arturs Ahmetovs in February. A fast-rising prospect in the Mayweather Promotions stable, the 24-year-old is ranked No. 10 by the WBA and will look to extend his six-fight knockout streak on August 15.

It feels great to return to the ring and to be fighting for such a great opportunity,»Сказал Ромеро. “This has been the best camp of my career, and I’ll just say this, if a pandemic is holding you back from training, then you don’t want it bad enough. I already believe I should be here with the top guys, but the world will actually get to see that I am who I say I am. I’m confident in my abilities as a fighter and I have the best in the business, Флойд Мэйвезер, behind me. I think this fight will end fairly quickly, but you will get to see the growth in me as a fighter. This is another fight that will further prove I’m here to stay. Sign up for KO’s!”

“This is a big step up for Rolando, and he’s been waiting for the opportunity to showcase his talent,- сказал Леонард Эллерб., Генеральный директор Мэйуэзер Акции. “He has a big test ahead to prove himself. This is going to be another one that you don’t want to miss, so tune-in to SHOWTIME on Saturday, August 15.”

The 29-year-old Maríñez (19-0, 7 КО) holds the WBA’s No. 6 ранжирование, which he earned with victories over Rolando Giono and Kenin Betancourt while picking up eight wins between 2018 и 2019. Representing his native Santo Domingo, Доминиканская Республика, Maríñez was successful in his U.S. debut in December of last year, stopping Yardley Armenta Cruz in two rounds.

“I’ve had a great training camp for this fight,” said Maríñez. “I’ve been sparring with Vergil Ortiz and Jose Ramirez, plus other fighters in Robert Garcia’s gym, and it’s gotten me ready to step into the ring. I know that Romero is a tough and durable fighter, so it won’t be easy, but I’m going to do anything I can to bring the title back home.”

Wallin (20-1, 13 КО) will return to the ring for the first time since he nearly defeated Tyson Fury in September 2019, когда он открыл жуткое рассечение над правым глазом Фьюри с правовым ударом, который почти остановил бой. While the 29-year-old lost a decision, он доказал свою храбрость, как потенциал будущего в супертяжелом весе. Представляя свой родной Сундсвалль, Швеция, Wallin поезд в Нью-Йорке с экс-чемпионом Джо Гамашей.

“I’m very happy to finally be back in the ring,»Сказал Валлин. “It’s been a long and crazy year in many ways and it feels great to be getting ready to step back into the ring. I’ve been training steady since the Fury fight and I feel like I’ve developed my game in a lot of ways. Kauffman is a tough veteran that can both come forward or box if he wants to. He’s a fan friendly fighter and I have to be ready at all times. We have a great game plan as always and I’m in excellent shape. I know I have all the tools to beat Kauffman.”

A veteran of the heavyweight landscape, Кауфман (32-3, 23 КО) owns a ledger that includes challenges of top heavyweights including Luis Ortiz, Chris Arreola and Amir Mansour, среди других. Чтение, Pennsylvania native lost his most recent bout to Ortiz, после 2018 triumph over Scott Alexander.

“This is my first training camp in seven years without Brother Naazim Richardson, but I know that he wouldn’t want me to leave camp and he’d want me to stay focused,” said Kauffman. “Having him pass away while I was in camp was one of the hardest things I’ve had to deal with, but there’s adversity in every camp I’ve had. I wouldn’t feel right if there wasn’t adversity to overcome. Мой отец, Маршалл, stepped back in as my head trainer. We know we’re facing a young, hungry fighter, but I have more experience than him and I don’t think he can last 10 rounds with me when I’m at 100% like I’ll be on August 15.”

Additional non-televised action will include super middleweight contenderAlantez Фокс(26-2-1, 12 КО) battling Ghana’sХабиб Ахмед(27-1-1, 18 КО) в аттракционе с восемью раундами.

Мудрое решение 4 лет назад находит “Чудесный” Mykquan Williams 15-0 сегодня как профессионал, а не как элитный любитель

Mykquan Williams (Фото Эмили Гарни / Команда Williams)

МАНЧЕСТЕР, Коннектикут. (Сентябрь 9, 2019) – Если бы не критическое решение четырехлетней давности, 21-лет “Чудесный” Mykquan Williams вполне может быть элитной любительской тренировкой, чтобы побороться за место на турнире. 2020 Олимпийская сборная США по боксу, а не 15-0 восходящая звезда, которой он является сегодня в профессиональном боксе.

Уильямс (15-0, 7 КО), который живет в Ист-Хартфорд (Коннектикут), преодолел изменяющие жизнь препятствия: его отец был убит, когда Миккуану было всего восемь месяцев., и семейный дом сгорел дотла, когда он был 10.

Не имеет права бороться за место в составе на 2016 Олимпийская сборная США по боксу, потому что он был слишком молод, У Уильямса было два варианта: оставаться любителем в течение четырех лет без каких-либо гарантий попадания на Олимпийские игры., или начать свою профессиональную карьеру. Он выбрал последний путь и не оглянулся назад..

Уильямс был заслуженным любителем, чей стиль, ретроспективно, гораздо лучше подходит для профессионального бокса, чем для любителей. Он имел 45-13 любительские записи, выделено три золотых медали выступления на чемпионате мира по рингу, помимо получения высших наград на чемпионатах National PAL и National Silver Glove..

“Я был слишком молод для последнего,” Уильямс объяснил свое решение стать профессионалом, когда он это сделал.” Уильямс объяснил. Я завершил любительскую карьеру после того, как произошли изменения в счете.. Я проиграл несколько трудных решений. Я решил сделать следующий шаг и стать профессионалом, чтобы получать деньги.. Мой стиль больше подходил для профессионалов. я не бросаю 100 пробивает раунд; Я выбираю места, когда у меня есть вакансии.

“Я не хотел ждать несколько лет. Я решил стать профессионалом (когда он был старшим в Prince Tech). Я уже 15-0, поднимаясь в рейтингах, и мне за это платят. Я должен был сделать это.”

Williams является царящим Всемирным боксерским советом (WBC) Соединенные Штаты Америка супер легкий вес, по рейтингу Нет. 5 Ассоциация бокса США (USBA), и Нет. 12 по Северо-Американской федерации бокса (NABF в).



“Я верил, что Майки готов стать профессионалом.,” Каллен прокомментировал. “Под опекой Пола он продвинулся достаточно далеко и стремился к профессионалам.. Его стиль идеально подходил профессионалам и профессионалам. 18 лет он был готов совершить прыжок. Его юношеская внешность сделала его идеальным молодым перспективным человеком.”

В то время меня беспокоило то, что олимпийская сборная не была уверена в этом.,” добавил Сишон, кто тренировал Уильямса в прошлом 10 годы. Я был уверен в Майки, но риск не стоил выигрыша. Мы решили стать профессионалом.”

Четыре года спустя, вместо того, чтобы соревноваться с элитными американскими боксерами-любителями в своей весовой категории – Keyshawn Дэвис, Брюс Carrington и Далис Калейопу — на 2020 Олимпийские испытания и национальный чемпионат США по боксу, Декабрь 7-15, в Лейк-Чарльзе, Луизиана, Уильямс – один из самых перспективных игроков в боксе среди юношей до 21 года..

HARTFORD, Коннектикут. (Сентябрь 7, 2019) – CES MMA World Welterweight Champion Виниций De Jesus made his first title defense tonight, stopping game challenger Chris «The Cleveland Ассасин» Лозано in the third round in the “CESMMA 58” main event at the Connecticut Convention Center in Hartford.

The main card was streamed live and exclusively on UFC FIGHT PASS®, ведущий в мире цифровой подписной сервис для единоборств.

Lozano (10-5) dropped De Jesus (9-2) in the opening round with a shot to the temple, but the Brazilian bounced up and fought back. The first two rounds were fought relatively cautious as both fighters took turns being the aggressor. De Jesus took charge in the third connected on punches and kicks, while avoiding Lozano’s limited offensive attacks. A strong De Jesus punch snapped Lazano’s head and that’s the opening the defending chance had set up. He bashed Lazano around the cage, trapping him as he threw punishing combinations until the referee waved off the action midway through the third.

“I appreciate him (Lozano) accepting this fight when others didn’t,” an excited De Jesus praised his opponent after the fight. “I respect him very much and hope he’s okay and back in the cage soon. I have a high fight IQ and he was difficult to hit. This is for my fans and family.

“My boxing paid off. My father coached me to box. Сейчас, I’m looking for the big show, the lions in the UFC.”

Porter couldn’t miss his overhand right in the first round, but Broenstrup responded in the second and came out hot for the third. All of a sudden Porter unloaded a straight right on Broenstrup’s chin and that’s all she wrote with less than two minutes remaining on the clock.

“I knew I started to get tired in the third round,” Porter commented. “I felt that I had won the first two rounds and my mentality was stay alive and don’t get taken out. I’d love to get a shot at the CES heavyweight strap in my next fight.”

Veteran Cincinnati lightweightРеджи Merriweather (13-5) ruined the homecoming type of night for popular and previously undefeatedДжесси Джеймс Kosakowski (3-1) from Waterbury, Коннектикут. Merriweather landed several bombs, Kosakowski got out of a few jams, and then suddenly Merriweather closed the show with a single righthanded punch halfway through the first round. Kosakowski’s large crowd of supporters expressed their collective feelings the referee had prematurely stopped the fight, but the upset was already in the books.

Massachusetts featherweight«Безжалостный» Робби Леру switched positions onПит «The Heat» Rogers, Младший.  to win by way of a reverse heal hold (pictured below) forcing a tap-out. It appeared that Rogers had the advantage and was moments away from victory Leroux did his thing.

Florida bantamweightЙорнел "A1" Луго, who lived in Wallingford (Коннектикут), used his speed and angles to stopHarris “Dirty Harry” Bonfilgio on punches in the first round. “Only one thing pays the bills…skills,” Lugo said after the fight. “Everybody kept telling me to watch out for his kicks. I studied – I’m paranoid – so I was prepared.”

“Особенный” Sharad Collier Back in action Oct. 10 at Foxwoods

 

HARTFORD, Коннектикут. (Август 21, 2018) – Hartford blue-chip prospect “Особенный” Шарада Collier returns to action October 20, on a show presented by CES Boxing, at Foxwoods Resort Casino in Uncasville, Коннектикут.

 

 

 

The two-time New England Golden Gloves champion made his professional debut this past June 16, on his promoter’s Hartford Boxing Promotions’ инаугурационное событие, “Fight Night at The Capital”, in which he registered a sensational first-round knockout of Antonio Castillo Jr. (1-1), в Xfinity Center в Хартфорде.

 

 

 

Collier will step-up in competition, fighting in to his first scheduled six-round bout Oct, 20, against undefeated Springfield, MA полусреднего Деррик Уитли, Младший. (4-0, 0 КО), the son and uncle of well-known retired New England fighters.

 

 

 

I feel the same as I did in my pro debut, maybe less pressure, but I’m more familiar with the guy I’m fighting October 20й,” Collier said. “I fought and beat his cousin and brother in the amateurs. I feel like he’s out for revenge for them.

 

 

 

I’m motivated to be fighting at Foxwoods. I feel like that’s fighting under the big lights, where I fought once as an amateur. I signed my contract the first day, I’ve been training hard in the gym every day. My pro debut was against a 1-0 парень, my second is against another undefeated fighter. I believe in my skills. I want to separate myself to show people that I am special.

 

 

 

The 21-year-Collier has dedicated his boxing career to his uncle and father. His uncle was murdered three years ago, outside of a venue in which Sharad was boxing and his father has been in and out of prison. Collier grew up in toughest part of (south) Хартфорд, spent time in a detention center and, at times, lived in and out of foster homes.

 

 

 

It was my idea to move up now to six rounds,” Collier noted. “I’m familiar with my opponent. I’m not sleeping on this kid but, if I don’t get him out early, it will just mean there are more rounds for me to beat him up.

 

 

 

“Мы рады,” Collier’s promoter Тони Уайт добавленной. “В его профессиональный дебют, he was up against a 1-0 противник, and now he’s stepping up to fight a 4-0 opponent in his first six-round fight. That’s why they call himThe Special One.'

 

 

 

Here’s what ‘Specialstands for: S = speed, P = power, E = enthusiasm, C = charisma, I = intelligence, A = athleticism, L = looks.

Ringsiders Talk Show Set to Cover Pro and Amateur Boxing from corner to corner; Giving voices to those currently involved with the sport.

Danbury, Коннектикут (Июль 13, 2018) – A new boxing talk show is set to hit the internet. Ringsiders will feature hosts that are currently in the sport of boxing, including both professional and amateur boxers, тренеры, менеджеры, promoters and more. The goal of the show is to give viewers a true insider’s look between the ropes. Another major difference of the show is that it will be taped, and feature different visual effects for viewers enjoyment as well as other innovative concepts.

 

 

 

Ringsiders will be taped in Champs Boxing Club in Danbury, Коннектикут, which is owned by professional boxing manager A.J. Галанте, who will also co-produce the show. He sees Ringsiders as a show that can help give everyone involved with boxing a voice, and a platform to elevate the sport. “Even though we will feature it, Ringsiders is not really about mainstream boxing news. Our main goal is to cover boxing’s other 99% and their perspectives. Boxing is made up of more blue collar individuals then millionaires. We want to do something different, we are looking to highlight the club shows, the club fighter, the up and coming trainer, amateurs trying to find their way, A-Side, B-Side, неважно, if it is interesting we want to highlight it, and give people a true insiders look, and have a lot of fun in the process.

 

 

 

Ringsiders is set to have a rotation of hosts and guests, all who are involved currently with boxing, but two mainstays will include Professional Boxer “Летать” Mike Marshall and amateur sensation Fernely Feliz Jr. Mike Marshall is currently 3(3 kos) – 1 as a professional and is also a licensed USA Boxing Amateur coach for Champs Boxing Club’s amateur team, the CBC Wolfpack. Fernely Feliz Jr. is a Danbury native and one of the top Super Heavyweight amateurs in the Nation. Он 3 time Western New England and All New England Golden Gloves Champion. A.J. Galante says he couldn’t think of a better embodiment of Ringsiders, “I think both Mike and Fernely fit exactly what this show is about. Mike is a talented pro, who hasn’t always gotten the best opportunities in his career. He’s coming off a loss and in the process of making a comeback, but he is going to also be one of the best trainers in the game in time. He has a great personality and says a lot of things most just think. Fernely is one of the best kids in the world. He is super talented, and can give a lot of insight into the amateur scene, and can give insight into just how hard it is to train and compete, deal with high expectations and trying to prepare for a professional career.

 

 

 

The shows director of production will be Danbury native Teyonte Best. “I don’t come from a boxing background, but that’s what A.J. and I like about my involvement, just bringing a different perspective.Best stated, “We believe in different concepts, not telling the same stories, reporting the same news, and we are very much committed to providing an entertaining and informative product for viewers. We want fans and viewers to be involved, and we are working with a few interactive concepts we think will be awesome. As A.J. has stressed to everyone involved, this show is about bringing the whole boxing community together, and we will definitely succeed.

 

 

 

Ringsiders is set to debut in August at a date to be announced. Have an idea for the show or want to have your voice heard? Contact the show at ringsidersboxingshow@gmail.com

 

Fight Night in The Capital” ОФИЦИАЛЬНЫЕ РЕЗУЛЬТАТЫ

Toot, Toot!
Ричард “Попай” Rivera smokes Jaime Solorio in 8th round

HARTFORD, Коннектикут. (Июнь 17, 2018) – Rising Hartford folk hero Ричард “Папай Морячок Человек” Ривера kept his pro record perfect (8-0) неповрежденный, knocking out his tough opponent, JaimeZarcoSolorio (12-4-2, 9 КО), in the eighth round to capture the vacant ABF Continental cruiserweight title, last night (Суббота) in the main event on theFight Night at The Capitalpro boxing card, в Xfinity Center в Хартфорде.

 

 

 

The reigning UBF All Americas light heavyweight champion, Ривера (8-0, 7 КО) is arguably the hardest pound-for-pound puncher in New England, if not the entire Northeast. After breaking his last opponent’s ankle with the force of his power, the incredibly popular Hartford fighter

 

 

 

тренер по боксу Тони Уайт и его партнер по спортзалу Hartford Boxing Center, Майкл Тран, recently teamed with Rivera to form Hartford Boxing Promotions, which was promoting its first pro boxing event, “Fight Night at The Capital.

 

 

 

I’m excited to have promoted our first show here in Hartford and I hope other promoters will follow,” Blanco commented. “I’m happy for all of the fighters. This was our first but not last show. We’re bringing boxing back to Hartford.

 

 

 

I’m also excited about Sharrad’s pro debut (Collier), who is like a son to me, and Richie, my brother and partner. Everything I do is for them, that’s who I work for them.

 

 

 

The durable Solorio had only been knocked out once in 17 pro fights going into the ring against Rivera, who has knock out six of his seven victims.

 

 

 

The first was a feeling-out round, but Rivera picked up the pace in the second, landing several hard shots on his game Mexican opponent. The highly entertaining Rivera cruised through the third through fifth, picking his spots better, but it was bombs away in the sixth as Rivera landed a right that sent Solorio to the deck. Solorio was penalized a point in the sixth for unsportsmanlike conduct.

 

 

 

 

В седьмом раунде, Solorio appeared to be fighting to survive, frequently holding and clinching, but he came forward in spurts as Rivera started loading up for a knockout that finally came in the eighth round. Rivera had never fought more than four rounds, but he was determined to ward off his opponent’s wrestling, landing a right-left-right uppercut combination to close the show with only 30 seconds left in the contest.

 

 

 

I want to thank everybody for being here and bringing our community together in one house,” Ривера сказал. “Happy Father’s Day. I dedicated this fight to my father who I love so much. I told everybody that he was going down in three, but Solorio was tough. I took him in deep water and I’m strong to the finish because I eat my spinach…..гудок, гудок!”

 

 

 

In an intra-Connecticut clash of junior welterweights, Danbury’s undefeated Омар “Зверь” Бора, Младший. (6-0, 2 КО) нокаутировал Александр “El Bravo” Пико (2-6-1), Хартфорд, with only one second left in the sixth and final round of co-featured event.

 

 

 

Bordoy was hampered by a cut over his right eye, suffered during the second round from an unintentional headbutt, who was fighting in his first scheduled six-rounder. He pivoted and threw a short, straight right that rocked Picot, dropping him forward on the mat as referee Shada Murdaugh immediately waved off the count, calling the doctor into the ring.

 

 

 

A star was born in a professional debut as two-time New England Golden Gloves champion “Особенный” Шарада Collier (1-0, 1 KO, fighting at home in Hartford, displayed his vast arsenal of skills, нокаутировав Antonio Castillo, Младший. (1-1) в первом раунде.

 

 

 

The 21-year-old Collier showed the poise of a veteran and surprising power, especially considering he fought two full divisions higher than his natural weight class, due to his opponent weighing in as a junior middleweight. Collier decked Castillo early and finished him off with a barrage of unanswered punches until referee Дэнни Sciavone приостановлено действие.

 

 

 

Everything went the way I had planned,” Collier said after the bout. “Before the fight, I knew I was going to win, because I felt so good. People were asking me before the fight how I was feeling and, если быть честным, I was a lot more nervous as an amateur.

 

 

 

Новый рай, CT легкий Ануэль Роза (1-0, 1 KO) turned in an explosive pro debut, blasting an overwhelmed Roger Бланкеншип (1-3) around the ring until the referee Murdaugh stopped the action at the 49-second mark of the opening round. The 21-year-old Rosa dedicated the fight to his cousin, поздно Луис “KO короля” Роза (23-1, 11 КО), who tragically died last January in a car accident at the age of 26.

 

 

 

Новая Британия, КТ в полулегком весе Натан Мартинес (1-0) had another very impressive pro debut, pitching a complete shutout (40-35) на всех трех судей’ scorecards against Генри Гарсия (0-2), despite it being an action-packed bout from start to finish. Martinez used lethal body shots, dropping Garcia with a left hook to the liver, and crisp combinations.

Undefeated light heavyweight Richard “Папай Морячок Человек” Rivera to Headline “Ночь боев в столице”

Июнь 16 в Xfinity Center в Хартфорде, Коннектикут

HARTFORD, Коннектикут. (Мая 15, 2018) – New England’s hottest, most popular and hardest hitter, Ричард “Папай Морячок Человек” Ривера, will defend his Universal Boxing Federation (UBF) All America light heavyweight title at home on Hartford Boxing Promotions’ инаугурационное событие, “Ночь боев в столице”, Июнь 16й в Xfinity Center в Хартфорде, Коннектикут.

 

 

Ривера (7-0, 6 КО) has partnered with his trainer, Тони Уайт, and Hartford Boxing Center gym co-owner, Майкл Тран, to form Hartford Boxing Promotions and bring world-class boxing back to Hartford.

 

 

Boxing’s rich roots in the Hartford market dates back nearly a full century, озаглавлен Международным залом славы Вилли “Уилл о’ огонек” Пеп и КристоферБитва” Батталино.

 

Среди других боксеров высшего уровня чемпион мира Marlon “Magic Man” Скворец, титул чемпиона мира соперники Гаспар “Индийский” Ортега, и Израиль “скорее” Кардона, и 1996 Капитан олимпийской сборной США по боксу Лоуренс Клей-Бей.

 

 

Rivera will take on JaimeZarcoSolorio (12-3-2, 9 КО) in the eight-round main event versus an opponent to be determined.

 

 

There’s a lot of pressure fighting at home because, конечно, I want a victory, but I also need to be impressive for me to be recognized,” Ривера сказал. “I’m all about boxing. My partners, Tony and Michael, take care of the business end of Hartford Boxing Promotions. I’m excited about fighting June 16й and I expect a great turnout. A lot of people know who I am from fighting all over New England. Сейчас, I want to expand my horizons. I have a huge following from our gym and church, but I want to bring non-boxing fans to our show to make them boxing fans.

 

 

There’s no such thing as an easy fight. It all starts with training, which makes fighting easier. I may get an early knockout, but I always train to go the distance. My opponent has fought on television a few times against some fighters with good records. I know that I am going to be in a fight. I’ll be ready for war!”

 

 

This past April in New Hampshire, Rivera hit his opponent, Рэнди Кэмпбелл, so hard with a powerful right, that the force broke Campbell’s ankle only seconds into the contest.

 

 

Fighting is a way of life,” Ривера объяснил. “All the training and fighting, it’s for the love of boxing, not money. Fighting never leaves a boxer.

 

 

Rivera originally got his nickname because, when he was younger, his forearms were considerably larger than his biceps. Fighters in the gym jokingly teased Rivera about his enlarged forearms, calling him “Попай,” and the nickname has stuck. Сейчас, Rivera showcases his Popeye persona in full, which has added many females and children to his growing fanbase of hardcore boxing fans. Июнь 16йwill open a new chapter in the life of for the man who’s always good to the finish because he eats his spinach.
