Malik Scott in Zurdo Ramirez’ corner

(L-R) – Zurdo Ramirez & Malik Scott

LOS ANGELES (Október 30, 2024) – Former pro heavyweight contender Malik Scott has successfully transitioned from fighter to trainer, and he will be working the corner of reigning World Boxing Association (WBA) Cruiserweight World Champion Gilberto “Zurdo” Ramirez (46-1, 30 Kos) for his November 16th unification fight with World Boxing Organization (WBO) titleholder Chris “The Gentleman” Billam-Smith (20-1, 13 Kos) í Riyadh, Sádí Arabía.

The 44-year-old Scott, who will assist Ramirez’ head trainer Julian Chua, passionately believes that not only will Ramirez defeat Smith, but Zurdo is the No. 1 cruiserweight in the world as well. Scott was Ramirez’ head trainer when Chua was unavailable for Ramirez’ debut as a cruiserweight (Október 7, 2023), in which he defeated former world light heavyweight champion Joe Smith, Jr. (28-4) in a dominant performance by way of a 10-round unanimous decision, winning all but one round on all three of the judges’ scorecards.

Scott and Chua are “in house” trainers at the state-of-the-art Brickhouse Boxing Club in North Hollywood, California.

“Julian is one of the brightest trainers in boxing,” Scott said. “I enjoy learning from him. I had Zurdo for his fight with Joe Smith and he had a good performance. I really enjoy working with him. No disrespect to Smith-Billam, but this fight is a mismatch. Zurdo is a big, strong southpaw who has fought a higher level of opponents than Smith-Billam. Zurdo is a good body puncher who throws punches from incredible angles, and he has an incredible boxing mind. Smith-Billam is big, strong and he keeps coming forward, but he is a one-trick pony. He does have a good trainer (Shane McGuigan), but I think Zurdo takes over in the second half of the fight. And Zurdo has a Dream Team in his corner. I think he will become the undisputed world champion and only Jay Opetaia can give him a fight.”

A product of the fighting city of Philadelphia, Scott was a decorated U.S. áhugamaður Boxer (70-3), highlighted by his gold-medal performance at the 1999 National AAU Championships. He went on to have a solid 15-year professional career, which ended in 2016 með a 38-3-1 (13 Kos) met.

Scott has always studied the sport of boxing and gives it his all every day. There’s no idol worshipping for him, and he takes pride in teaching young boxers.

“A great trainer teaches boxers the why’s and how’s,” Scott explained. “A good trainer just gives instructions. I believe in teaching for a good reason. I study fighters, their styles, and habits, and I go as far as studying the opponent’s corner to learn how they work during a fight. I think everybody working corners should be mic-ed up. I’m confident and want people to hear my advice.”

Scott learned from Fred Jenkins back in Philadelphia and he has studied other trainers such as Barry Robinson, Joe Goossen, and Emanuel Steward, meðal annarra. Scott was head trainer for Deantay Wilder for his third fight with Tyson Fury. In addition to assisting Chua with Zurdo, they also team, sig, as head and assistant trainers of world super flyweight title challenger John “Scrappy” Ramirez (13-1, 9 Kos). They aren’t related but Zurdo is like a big brother and role model for “Scrappy.”

“’Scrappy’ is going to be world champion,” Scott predicted. “His day is coming!”Malik Scott is literally and figuratively in Zurdo Ramirez’ corner.

Ras Hylton er að vinna stórsigur á Charles Penn í apríl síðastliðnum (0-1) í Portland, Maine. Læknirinn stöðvaði bardagann í fyrstu lotu þegar ekki tókst að loka skurði á auga Penns. Hylton opnaði skurðinn með beinni hægri hendi sem lét blóðið renna niður á mottuna.

Hylton er uppistaðan í NEF þungavigtinni og krúsvigtinni. 6'6″ íþróttamaður er með annars stigs svart belti í Shotokan karate. Hann æfir nú með Dragon Fire Martial Arts í Portland og First Class MMA í Brunswick, Maine.

“Ég er heppinn að vera á þeim tímapunkti á ferlinum þegar ég er kallaður til að kynna nýja fagmenn fyrir starfsreynslu okkar,” sagði Hylton.  “Hnefaleikamenn eins og andstæðingur minn bjóða upp á mikla áhættu með kunnugleika sínum í vasanum og í fjarlægð, svo auðvitað munum við báðir vera meira en ánægðir með að skipta okkar bestu skotum fyrir sigurinn! Ég elska listir, en það er í bardagaþáttum bardagaíþrótta sem keppendur eins og við lifa sannarlega og finna tilgang. Þannig að við æfum eins og líf okkar sé háð því, vegna þess að okkur, svona er það. Verið velkomin í skóla hinna hörðu högga, Chris. MMA 101 er nú á þingi.”

Eins og Hylton sagði, Andstæðingur hans Chris Sarro gæti verið nýliði í MMA búrinu, en hann er ekki ókunnugur bardagaíþróttaheiminum. Sarro skapaði sér nafn sem áhugamaður í hnefaleikum með metið 7-1. Hann náði í 2019 Northern New England Golden Gloves meistaramótið í ofurþungavigt. Innfæddur maður í Ellsworth, Maine, Sarro er nú fulltrúi Acadia Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.

„Ég er bara spenntur að berjast nálægt heimilinu,” sagði Sarro.  “Orono líður eins og bakgarðinum mínum. Komdu 7. september, Ég ætla að sýna heiminum að það er nýr þungavigtarmaður í bænum. Þetta er minn tími."

New England Berst’ næsti viðburður í blönduðum bardagalistum, “NEF 40: HARÐHARÐARSKÓLI,” fer fram laugardaginn, September 7, 2019 í Collins Center for the Arts við háskólann í Maine þegar kynningin er frumsýnd í Orono, Maine. Aðgöngumiðar eru seldir núna klwww.collinscenterforthearts.com.

Crushing Power Puncher Shohjahon Ergashev snýr aftur á laugardaginn í Chicago

Ógnvekjandi ofurlétt mulningurinn Shohjahon „Descendant of Tamerlane“ Ergashev mun snúa aftur til leiks á laugardaginn, Nóvember 10, í UIC Pavilion í Chicago gegn Springfield, Massachusetts, öldungur Zack "AK47" Ramsey.

 

 

 

Ergashev (13-0, 12 Kos) frá Detroit um Úsbekistan og Ramsey (8-4, 4 Kos) mun mætast í sex umferða bardaga á undirspili World Boxing Super Series Cruiserweight Tournament tvíhöfða með Krzysztof Glowacki, fyrrverandi heimsmeistara WBO Cruiserweight. (30-1, 19 KO), frá Walcz, Pólland, mun mæta Maksim Vlasov (42-2, 25 KO) Samara, Rússland, í 12 lotu bardaga um bráðabirgðamót WBO heimsmeistaramótsins og fyrrum WBC heimsmeistara í siglingavigt, Mairis Briedis (24-1, 18 KO) frá Riga, Lettland, tekur á móti Hamborg, Þjóðverjinn Noel Mikaelian (23-1, 10 KO) fyrir WBC World Diamond Belt Championship.

 

 

 

Ergashev byrjar hressilega sem atvinnumaður, fara vegalengdina aðeins einu sinni, svona langt. Hann er núverandi alþjóðlegur ofurléttvigtarmeistari Alþjóða hnefaleikasambandsins. Þessi 26 ára gamli flutti frá heimalandi Úsbekistan til að æfa í Kronk Gym Detroit á síðasta ári og dúndrandi kraftur hans hefur aðeins batnað.

 

 

 

„Ég hef æft í Detroit í sjö vikur og mér finnst ég verða betri og betri með hverri herbúðum,sagði Ergashev. „Ég hlakka til að sýna færni mína í nóvember 10 í Chicago."

 

 

 

Dmitriy Word, verkefnisstjóri námu Rússlandi og Mið-Asíu fyrir frábærar framtíðarhorfur eins og Ergashev, segir hina öflugu suðurpung stefni í mikilfengleika.

 

 

 

„Shohjahon Ergashev er besti ofurléttur í heimi og, pund-fyrir-pund, einn erfiðasti kýli í hnefaleikum,“ sagði Salita. „Ég hlakka til annarrar glæsilegrar sýningar frá honum á stóru hnefaleikakvöldi í Chicago.

Vlasov: „Það er annað hvort að gera eða deyja“

Pólland er Krzysztof Glowacki og Rússland Maxim Vlasov hafa rannsakað hvort annað rækilega áður en þeir Ali Trophy Cruiserweight 8-liða úrslit nóvember 10 í UIC Pavilion í Chicago.

 

Miðar fást í gegnum TicketMaster.com eða með því að hringja 800-745-3000.

 

 

 

„Ég hef horft mikið á hann (hjá Vlasov) berst saman við þjálfarann ​​minn og við erum með taktík tilbúin,“ sagði 32 ára Glowacki (30-1, 19 Kos). „Auðvitað, hann er með marga veika punkta en hann hefur líka marga styrkleika.

 

 

 

„En ég er ekki að einbeita mér að honum, raunverulega. Mér er alveg sama hvað hann gerir, hvað hann borðar eða hvort hann sefur mikið. Ég hef aðallega áhuga á sjálfri mér og því sem ég geri. Því ég veit það ef ég gef allt, ég mun sigra.

 

 

 

„Hvað er ég að koma með á mótið? Trú mín að mestu leyti, trú mína á að ég eigi eftir að vinna og ég veit að það getur bara verið einn meistari."

 

 

 

Vlasov, bardagamaður með árangur í mörgum þyngdum, er vel undirbúinn fyrir áskorunina.

 

 

 

„Ég veit mikið um andstæðing minn Krzysztof Glowacki,“ sagði hinn 32 ára gamli Vlasov (42-2, 25 Kos). „Ég horfði á marga bardaga hans, hann er erfiður og hættulegur boxari. Hann er bardagamaður sem getur skotið hvenær sem er og maður þarf alltaf að fylgjast með honum og halda einbeitingu.

 

 

 

“Á þessu stigi ferils míns, þessi barátta gegn Glowacki er lykilatriði. Það er annað hvort að gera eða deyja."

 

 

 

Lettlands Mairis Deer á móti Þýskalandi Noel Mikaelian og Krzysztof Glowacki vs Maxim Vlasov eru tveir 8-liða úrslit Cruiserweight í ótrúlegum tvíhöfða þegar World Boxing Super Series kemur til UIC Pavilion í Chicago.

Nokkrir staðbundnir möguleikar munu leggja áherslu á spennandi undirspil.

Mikaelian: „Ég er snjallari“

Þjóðverjinn Noel Mikaelian telur sig hafa það sem þarf í nóvember 10 í 8-liða úrslitum Ali Trophy Cruiser-vigtar gegn Mairis Briedis frá Lettlandi í UIC Pavilion í Chicago., USA.

 

Miðar fást í gegnum TicketMaster.com eða með því að hringja 800-745-3000.

 

 

 

„Hnefaleikar eru mjög erfið íþrótt og einhvern veginn verður maður háður henni,” sagði 28 ára Mikaelian (24-1, 10 Kos).

 

 

 

„Ef þú ert boxari, þú ert boxari fyrir lífstíð. Hnefaleikar kenndu mér að ég er virkilega agaður; Ég fékk vígslu fyrir íþróttina og ég gefst aldrei upp.”

 

 

 

Mikaelian er fyrrum WBO ungmennameistari og WBO International Cruiserweight meistari, en stærsta prófið hans til þessa er aðeins eftir nokkra daga.

 

 

 

„Fjórðungsúrslitin gegn Briedis… það verður hörð barátta. Hann er í uppáhaldi, hann er virkilega góður bardagamaður. Hann er með góðan skóla, sovéska skólanum, gata máttur. Hann er líka hugsuður í hringnum, en ég held að ég sé sá gáfaðri.

 

 

 

„Ég mun gera það sem þarf til að vinna. Ég berst eftir fyrirmyndinni; högg og ekki fá högg. Þetta er hnefaleikar fyrir mér og hvernig hnefaleikar eiga að vera.“

 

 

 

“Ég hef gefið annað tækifæri,“ sagði Briedis (24-1, 18 Kos) ein af stjörnum tímabils I af World Boxing Super Series.

 

 

 

Og lettneska íþróttahetjan er án efa í uppáhaldi til að taka heim Ali-bikarinn á þessu tímabili í 200 lb skipting.

 

 

 

„Ég vil nota þetta annað tækifæri. Ég ætla að nota það, og við skulum sjá hversu langt ég kemst. Hvert og eitt okkar í mótinu er öðruvísi. Það er mjög stór próf fyrir sjálfan mig. Bæði líkamlega og andlega."

 

 

 

Á síðasta ári í október var fyrrverandi heimsmeistari WBC veittur sem yfirmaður þriggja stjarnanna, hæstu ríkisverðlaun í Lettlandi, fyrir „framúrskarandi afrek í íþróttum og umtalsvert framlag til kynningar á Lettlandi í heiminum.’

 

 

 

„Ég vil sýna með fordæmi mínu að það er þörf fyrir Letta, og ekki bara Lettar, en fyrir alla almennt að taka sig saman. Að fólk þurfi að hafa baráttuanda,“ sagði hinn 33 ára gamli.

 

 

 

„Það er margt sem ég þarf að vinna í sjálfur, bæði líkamlega og andlega. Ég er ekki að yngjast, en ég ætla að gera allt sem ég get.

 

 

 

„Líkamlega líður mér vel í sjálfum mér. Líkamsvísitalan mín er góð. Nú, það mikilvægasta, með Guðs hjálp, er að vinna hörðum höndum með alla mína hnefaleikatækni. Ég vil sýna hvers ég er megnugur í hnefaleikum og sýna hvernig ég er."

 

 

 

Mairis Briedis gegn Noel Mikaelian og Krzysztof Glowacki gegn Maksim Vlasov eru tveir 8-liða úrslitum krúservigtarinnar á ótrúlegum tvíhöfða þegar World Boxing Super Series kemur í UIC Pavilion í Chicago..

NEF MAKES HISTORY WITH NEW WEIGHT DIVISION AND TITLE FIGHT

Portland, Maine (Október 15, 2018) - New England Berst (NEF) will hold its final mixed-martial-arts event of 2018, “NEF 36: Battle for the Gold,” á laugardag, Nóvember 17 at Aura in Portland, Maine. Fyrr í dag, the fight promotion announced the addition of a professional cruiserweight championship bout to the card. “The Jamaican Shamrock” Ras “Rasquatch” Hylton(3-1) will meet undefeated Yorgan De Castro (2-0) to crown the first-ever NEF Professional Cruiserweight Champion.

The fight will officially give birth to the brand-new NEF cruiserweight division. This bout, as well as future bouts in the weight class, will take place at the 225-pound limit. The division, which sits between light-heavyweight and heavyweight, was approved as an official weight class for MMA by the Association of Boxing Commissions at their annual conference in July 2017. NEF will be one of the first promotions in the country to institute a cruiserweight division.

The adoption of new weight classes at the highest levels of the sport in order to account for the wide gaps in the current championship class structure is inevitable—we’re just getting there first,” said NEF co-owner and matchmaker Matt Peterson. “There’s no more perfect way to usher in this new era of the 225-pound weight class than with a championship fight on the year-end “Battle for the Gold” show between two high-caliber, hungry opponents that NEF fans are very familiar with. This action-packed event was tailor made to include this breakthrough boutit’s just one more element to an already blistering card. Fans can be certain that they will get their money’s worth on November 17th.

Ras Hylton will return to the NEF cage after nearly a year-and-a-half absence. He is a five-fight veteran of the NEF cage where he is undefeated with three wins as an amateur and two as a professional. Síðasta ágúst, Hylton knocked out veteran Eric Bedard (6-8) in Rhode Island with a single elbow strike after absorbing a barrage of shots from Bedard that had little-to-no effect. Standing at a towering 6’6,Hylton holds a black belt in Taekwondo. He trains with both First Class MMA in Brunswick, Maine and Dragon Fire Martial Arts of South Portland.

“I’m ecstatic about the response to my FaceTime call to action, and that I get to kick off my cruiserweight run back home,” sagði Hylton. “I’ve spoken at length about my dream to elevate the draw and excitement to see the heavier divisions, so I thank (NEF owners) Matt Peterson and Nick DiSalvo for working with me again, and launching the title here with NEF! Yorgan is a good strong fighter with heavy hands that I saw work against my best friend Nick Gulliver in another belt war. Now I move to follow ‘The Guardian’sexample, and keep the inaugural strap right here in Maine. Thanks for staying with us everyone!"

As Hylton noted, this will not be the first time Yorgan De Castro has come to Maine looking to take gold back with him to Massachusetts. De Castro faced Hylton’s teammate Nick Gulliver for the NEF Amateur Heavyweight Title in a losing effort atNEF 26almost two years to the day he will fight Hylton.

I’m very excited to become the first 225-pound NEF champion,” said De Castro. “We will be sure to put on a great show for the fans. I’ve been through some very dark moments in my all life and on November 17 I’ll make sure I bring all my demons with me and Ras will have to deal with them. This fight will be absolutely epic.

A native of Portugal now residing in the fighting city of Brockton, Massachusetts, De Castro has had success to date in his professional career. He has finished both of his previous opponents via technical knockout at light-heavyweight. For fighters like De Castro and Hylton, the creation of a cruiserweight division in NEF opens a new realm of career possibilities that did not exist before. De Castro was one of the first individual to respond positively to Hylton’s Face Time video calling for the creation of a cruiserweight division.

I’m excited to make my NEF debut as a professional fighter in the inaugural cruiserweight division,” De Castro continued. “This is a huge opportunity for fighters and I’m looking to make my mark in that division. I have nothing but respect for Ras—he’s a class act man and very tough—but he has never faced a more dedicated and focused Yorgan and on November 17, I’ll be victorious and write my name in NEF history.

Næsta NEF er blönduð Martial-Arts atburði, “NEF 36: Battle for the Gold,” will see the company make its return to Aura in Portland, Maine. The event is scheduled to take place Saturday, Nóvember 17, 2018 with a bell time of 7 kl. Miðar eru á sölu núna á www.AuraMaine.com.

I have been doing the same amount of running, physical exercising and sparring. I am not thinking about what he is doing. I need to be Murat Gassiev and do my bestI am only thinking about myself, my skills and my condition. Það er það.

 

 

 

I would fight anywhere in the world, but it is a plus for my mother and brother that they easily can watch the fight live. I am sure the final will be a very interesting and good fight for fans all over the world. Megi FJALLIÐ vinna!”
