Gormley Confident that Undefeated Ruiz Will Taste Defeat at ‘Detroit Brawl’ پر ہفتے کے روز, جولائی 16
, at Masonic Temple Having already experienced being a world-rated TV-level fighter under tremendous pressure to win every fight impressively, Miami-based slugger Josh “ڈیمپسی” Gormley says he much prefers the lowered expectations of being considered the “مد مقابل” since coming back to boxing.
“There’s a lot of pressure on you as the A-side guy,” explained Gormley. “As an opponent, I’m supposed to lose, so when I win it’ll be that much more dramatic.”
Gormley (22-4, 21 کوس) will face WBO #5-, آئی بی ایف #5-, and WBC #7-rated and current NABF heavyweight champion Andy “The Destroyer from Mexicali” Ruiz میں (27-0, 18 کوس) in a non-title fight اس ہفتہ ڈیٹرائٹ میں. The two bruising heavyweights will meet in the 10-round main event of Salita Promotions’ latest “Detroit Brawl” event at the Masonic Temple.
Sponsored by Thomas Magee’s Sporting House Whiskey Bar, کے لئے ٹکٹ “Detroit Brawl” will be priced at VIP $123, Box Seats $100, Ringside $93, محفوظ $63 اور $38, and Balcony $28, and are available at all Ticketmaster outlets and Tickmaster.com.
Gormley says he isn’t prepared to go along with the expected outcome for a 41-year-old fighter taking on a top contender in just his third fight since returning from a 16-year retirement. He’s coming to Detroit to win.
“اس نے میرے لئے بہترین ہے,” he said of Ruiz. “I feel like I’m fighting the weakest guy in the top 10. He doesn’t punch hard and I won’t have to look for him. He comes forward a lot and he’s not Floyd Mayweather. I don’t think he can handle my power. Now that I’m older, I hit harder than ever and I’m in great shape. I doubt it’ll last the distance. I’ll get him out of there in about five rounds. Even if he does, I’m in great shape to beat him over the distance.”
Gormley, reportedly the grandson of all-time-great heavyweight champion Jack Dempsey, میں نواز کر دیا 1992 and flirted with world-contender status before suffering a pair of tough losses and retiring in 1999. تاہم, باکسنگ, like any addiction, eventually lured him back.
“I just want to take opportunities and see what I can do,” انہوں نے کہا کہ. “جیت یا ہار, I’m just carrying on my legacy and seeing what I can still do. My goal is to be champ of the world. But I’m not chasing that dream lie I used to. A long time ago I chased the heavyweight championship dream so hard that every loss was devastating. اب, I want to take the opportunities as they come and win some of them. And hey, when I beat this guy, I’m back in the top 10!”
