Zanechat komentář

(L-R) – Michael Tran, Richard Rivera & Tony Blanco

HARTFORD, Conn. (Duben 4, 2018) – Professional boxing’s newest promotional company, Hartford Boxing Promotions, has announced its official formation, as well as tentative plans calling for its inaugural event this summer in Hartford.

 

 

 

Boxing trainer Tony Blanco and his Hartford-based House of Boxing gym partner, Michael Tran, have teamed with their undefeated light heavyweight prospect, Richard “Pepek Námořník Man” Rivera (6-0, 5 KO), to form Hartford Boxing Promotions. Rivera is one of the best and most popular pro fighters in New England.

 

 

 

“We want to bring boxing back to Hartford,” Blanco addressed why they founded this new promotional company. “Hartford is a hotbed of boxing. There’s a lot of talent here and Hartford has a rich boxing history.

 

 

 

“We hope to promote our first show on June 16th, subject to Connecticut Boxing Commission approval, at Xfinity Theatre in Hartford. It’s owned by Live Nation and has been used only as a concert hall, but it has an old-school feel and will be an awesome venue for boxing. We’re excited about promoting events in this new venue for boxing.”

 

 

 

Boxing’s roots in the Hartford market dates back nearly a full century, headlined by International Hall of Famers Willie “Will o’ the Wisp” Pep a Kryštof “Battling” Battalino. Other top-area boxers include world champion Marlon “Kouzelná Man” Starling, titul mistra světa vyzyvatelů Gaspar “Indián” Ortega, “Ledař” John Scully a Izrael “poněkud” Cardona, a 1996 USA Olympic Boxing Team captain Lawrence Clay-Bey.

Zanechat komentář
TISKOVÁ ZPRÁVA

Únor 14, 2017 (Danbury, CT) – One day after turning 22 let, Omar Borðoy formally announced he has turned professional. Family and friends gathered at Champs Boxing Club in Danbury, CT Pondělí night for a press conference in where Bordoy, nicknamed The Beast, signed his license and declared he is entering the pro ranks.

Bordoy, who is of Puerto Rican descent, was born and raised in the rough Mill Ridge section of Danbury, CT. A born fighter, he started boxing at 13 years old under the tutelage of former World Kickboxing Champion Bennie ‘The Jet’ Little. After nearly six years of competing in the amateurs, Bordoy’s resume is littered with achievements such as the CT J.O. State Champion, CT Golden Gloves Champion, various Regional and National tournament qualifiers, and countless fighter and fight of the night awards. His exciting boxing style has had people in Connecticut constantly asking, “When will he go pro.”

“I have nothing more to prove in the amateurs.” Stated Bordoy, who plans on competing at 135 pounds professionally, “I have been dreaming of this moment since I was 13. There were times I felt ready to make that jump, but something held me back. But now is the time, Jsem připraven. I have had a lot stacked against me but I never quit. My motivation is to provide a better life for my family, to make Danbury proud and to bring a World Championship to Connecticut.”

Bordoy is currently trained by former professional and New York City amateur standout Luis Marichal. Marichal, who trains at Champs Boxing Club in Danbury promises excitement from his first professional boxer, “Omar is ready. We have been training extremely hard every day. Sparring has been great, we have been all over for sparring and he has shown me he can handle what is to come. I feel he is being overlooked by others who have flashier amateur records and backgrounds, but that’s what motivates our team, we are ready to unleash the beast!”

Bordoy will be under the watchful eye of A.J. Galante. Galante, 30, has managed and advised fighters such as Delvin Rodriguez, Frank Galarza, Eleser Ortega, among others since 2011. He also promoted Danbury Fight Night in May of 2015, v Danbury, CT. Galante hopes to see Bordoy in action sometime in March, “We are looking at a bunch of options for Omar. March is the target, and obviously I’d like to get him in the ring as many times as possible in 2017. I am very excited to be part of Team Bordoy.”

Mashantucket, CT (Září 2, 2016) – New England boxers dominated last night’s Broadway Boxing, presented by DiBella Entertainment and sponsored by Nissan of Queens, Optyx, Hodinky Azad a Christos Steak House, held in the Fox Theater at Foxwoods Resort Casino in Mashantucket, Connecticut.
Rhode Island lightweight “Pěkný” Nick DeLomba (11-1, 2 KO) outboxed and outpunched former Florida State Golden Gloves champion Amos “2 Hladký” Cowart (11-2-1, 9 KO) for an upset victory by way of an eight-round unanimous decision.
DeLomba, who was one of five winning New Englanders without a loss, took the fight to Cowart, beating him to the punch and effectively counterpunching. Cowart was unable to contain DeLomba’s side-to-side movement or his flurries of punches in the main event.
“Everybody looks at me and thinks they’re going to attack my body,” an ecstatic DeLomba said after the fight. “Nobody moves as smooth as me and I’m going to keep doing it.”
Nick DeLomba (R) outworked Cowart
Ve spolupráci funkce, New Mexico super featherweight Jose “Shorty” Salinas (10-2-1, 5 KO) stood tall, stunning Albania native Dardan Zenunaj (12-2, 9 KO), who is trained byRobert Garcia. Now fighting out of Belgium, Zenunaj couldn’t put Salinas away early and he paid for that in the later rounds. Bloodied and bruised, Salinas refused to stop throwing punches, and his huge heart resulted in an eight-round unanimous decision victory.
Jose Salinas pulled off a stunner
Undefeated Spaniard Jon “Jonfer” Fernandez (9-0, 7 KO) used a tremendous height and reach advantage to pound his tough Mexican opponent Naciff “Chata” Zámek (17-9-2, 5 KO) until referee Joey Lupino halted the action midway through the fifth round. Fernandez recently signed a promotional contract with DiBella Entertainment and legendary boxer Sergio Martinez.

Brooklyn lightweight Wesley Ferrer (12-0, 6 KO), a 2013 New York City Golden Gloves champion, kept his undefeated record intact by outclassing a game Angel Figueroa (4-4-1). Referee Arthur Mercante stopped the fight 20 seconds into the seventh round.
Wesley Ferrer (L) was simply too much for Angel Figueroa
Sensational high school senior “Podivuhodný” Mykey Williams (4-0, 2 KO) unloaded a three-punch combination that knocked out David Nelson (3-6, 1 KO) jen 24 sekund do prvního kola. 18letý Williams, fighting out of East Hartford, is rapidly developing into a rising star.

Broadway Boxing je hrdě sponzorován společností Nissan of Queens, OPTYX, Hodinky Azad, a Christos Steakhouse.
“Jsem rád, že se vracím do Foxwoods s další skvělou kartou, a mít příležitost předvést tyto dva nové přírůstky do seznamu DBE,” řekl Lou DiBella, Prezident DiBella Entertainment. “Propagace Sergia Martineze byla jedním z vrcholů mé kariéry a jsem hrdý na to, že mohu říci, že on a já jsme vytvořili celoživotní přátelství.. Sergio mi řekl, že Jon je jedním z nejlepších mladých bojovníků, které za dlouhou dobu viděl, a těším se, že budu pomáhat budovat kariéru Jona Fernandeze zde ve Státech se svým přítelem a velkým šampionem Maravillou.”
Ohledně Romana, pokračoval DiBella, “José Roman byl skvělý amatér, a získal neocenitelné zkušenosti z bojů v portorickém národním týmu. Byl jedním z nejvyhledávanějších amatérů na ostrově a jsme nadšeni, že nazývá DBE svým domovem. Těšíme se na jeho představení v USA, stejně jako v Portoriku, a postavit ho před obrovskou základnu portorických fanoušků tady na východním pobřeží.”

Stojí na 5:11”, Fernandez je extrémně vysoký na 130 liber. divize a má v obou rukou zničující moc. Fernandez zaujal bývalého krále střední váhy a budoucího člena Síně slávy Sergia Martineze, když ještě bojoval jako amatér.. Martinez okamžitě viděl hvězdný potenciál a podepsal Fernandeze do své propagační společnosti, Propagační akce MaravillaBox, v 2015 a brzy poté se začal dvořit mladému Fernandezovi jeho bývalému promotérovi Lou DiBellovi. DiBella a Martinez udělali věci oficiální v červnu, podepsání smlouvy o spolupráci s Fernandezem na letošní Boxing Writers Association of America (BWAA) večeře s cenami, kde DiBella obdržel James A. Farley Award za poctivost a integritu v boxu.
“To je sen. Pořád tomu nemůžu uvěřit,” řekl Fernandez. “Jsem velmi vděčný Lou DiBella, jeden z nejvýznamnějších a nejprestižnějších promotérů ve Spojených státech, za důvěru a víru, kterou do mě a do Sergia vložil (Martinez) za potenciál, který ve mně jako boxerovi viděl. Box je můj život a chci být nejlepší. Jít ve stopách Sergia a stát se mistrem světa jako on je můj celoživotní sen.”
“Sleduji Jona bojovat od jeho amatérských dnů a opravdu věřím, že nebe je pro něj limit,” řekla Maravilla Martinezová. “S každým dalším bojem, nadále vykazuje obrovské zlepšení a věřím, že má schopnost stát se nejen budoucím šampionem, ale budoucí hvězdou v tomto sportu. Jon se musí soustředit a pokračovat v práci, učit se a dát tomuto sportu vše, co má. Aby měl Jon příležitost podepsat smlouvu s Lou na just 20 let, příležitost, kterou jsem neměl, dokud jsem už nebyl 32, je úžasný a musí toho naplno využít. Jon musí zničit vše, co se mu postaví do cesty a časem, trpělivost a tvrdá práce, v tomto sportu dosáhne velikosti.”
Rodák z boxerského bohatého města Bayamon, Portoriko, Roman začal boxovat v 13 let nashromáždil hvězdný 124-17 zaznamenat po cestě. Roman se připojil k portorickému národnímu týmu v 2012, vyhrál tři po sobě jdoucí národní šampionáty 2013-2015.

DiBella za ta léta odvedla obrovskou práci s tolika skvělými bojovníky, a těším se na růst a zářit pod hlavičkou DiBella Entertainment. Snem každého bojovníka je bojovat v USA, a teď mám příležitost zde debutovat profi, a za to chci poděkovat svému manažerovi Ricardu Figueroovi a mému trenérovi Emilio Lozadovi za to, že mi dali tuto úžasnou příležitost,” řekl Roman.
