Fighting Professionally in his Hometown for the First Time this Friday, Nick Casal to Make First Ring Appearance in Nearly Five Years

A familiar name, especially to the local boxing fans, will make his first ring appearance in just under five years este venres night in his own hometown of Niagara Falls, Nova York.
Former red-hot prospect NickHands of GoldCasal (22-4-1, 17 Kos) says he’s expecting some rust, but should have enough to overcome when he takes on 37-fight veteran Antonio Chaves Fernandez of Brockton, Massachusetts, in one of the untelevised supporting bouts at the Seneca Niagara Resort & Casino. The fight will be Casal’s first at home as a professional.
In the night’s 10-round main event, WBO #11-, WBA #12- and IBF #15-rated heavyweight boxer Jarrell “Big Baby” Moleiro (16-0-1, 14 Kos), defends his WBA NABA Heavyweight title against Topeka, Kansas, slugger Nick Guivas (12-3-2, 9 Kos). And in the 10-round lightweight semi-final, red-hot Filipino prospect HarmonitoEl Huracan de Gensan” Dela Torre (17-0, 12 Kos) will make his debut on US soil against capable veteran Guillermo Sanchez (15-18-1, 6 Kos) de Buffalo.
Presented by Greg Cohen Promotions, Salita Promocións, FightCard Productions and Winner Take All Productions, “Campionato de Boxeo na CBS Sports Network” will be broadcast live nationally at 9 pm EST.

30-year-old Casal was headed for big things in boxing before suffering a loss of focus and all four of his losses in a two-year stretch from 2007 para 2009. Desde entón, inactivity has been the name of his game.
So where was he and why wasn’t he fighting?
I never really left,” said Casal during a break in one of his final training sessions. “I’ve been working full-time for the last three years, but I was ready to go and trying to get a fight the whole time. I had a number of them fall through. I had one fight fall through at the weigh-in when a guy failed his physical. That was heartbreaking. But now, I finally have a team in place that can keep them from falling through and I’m glad to be finally getting back in the ring.
Casal says he’s basically the same talented fighter he always waswith a few improvements.
“Fisicamente, I feel exactly the same as I did five years ago. Mentalmente, I would say I’m a little stronger and a lot more patient than I was when I was younger. I set my shots up a lot better. I don’t think the ring rust will be as bad as it is for other guys who take a lot of time off. I’ve been in the gym training fighters and working out the whole time. I expect to have a little bit of rust, but not as much as someone who was completely out for years. I picture it going very well if I stick to my game plan and stay very focused.
Working with father Ray at their Casal’s Boxing Club Gym in Niagara Falls since February, Casal says he will now compete in the welterweight division and expects to take an aggressive approach to getting back on track.
I want to win a few regional titles and then earn a world title shot. Around this time next year, I’d like to be in some important fights.
Casal says he owes his apparent resurgence to promoter Greg Cohen, with whom he signed earlier this year.
He’s a great promoter and does shows in my hometown. I’ve never fought here as a professional. I fought in Buffalo a few times in 2011, but never fought here. That was important to me. People are calling like crazy for tickets. I’m excited to get it on. With the crowd behind me, I’ll be 100% listo. I’ve just been waiting for the right guy to help me get to where I want to be. Looks like I found him.

Guivas Taking a Realistic Approach to Facing ‘Big BabyMiller in CBS-televised Showdown next Friday at Seneca Niagara Resort & Casino

Topeka, Kansas heavyweight NickTwo GunzGuivas is taking a realistic approach to facing one of the most dangerous up-and-coming heavyweights in the world next weekend.
Guivas (12-3-2, 9 Kos) will take on undefeated WBO #11, WBA #12 e IBF #15 Jarrell “Big Baby” Moleiro (16-0-1, 14 Kos) for the WBO NABO Heavyweight Championship on Venres, Maio 27, 2016, at the Seneca Niagara Resort & Casino en Niagara Falls, Nova York.
The two power-punching heavies will meet in the main event of Greg Cohen Promotions’ (in association with Salita Promotions, Adam Wilcock’s FightCard Promotions and David Schuster’s Winner Take All Productions) next instalment ofChampionship Boxing on CBS Sports Network.
In the 10-round lightweight semi-final bout, red-hot Filipino prospect HarmonitoEl Huracan de Gensan” Dela Torre (17-0, 12 Kos) will make his debut on US soil against capable veteran Guillermo Sanchez (15-18-1, 6 Kos) de Buffalo.

I’m coming there to win, definitivamente,” dixo Guivas, “and I know I’m a lot smaller than him, but I think I can move around and stay away from his punches. He’s a very heavy hitter, so I’m going to move and box him and see what the outcome is. I’m going to give this guy everything I’ve got. And I know he’s coming to fight too, so at the end of the fight, may the best man get their hand raised.
Taking on the red-hot Miller is not a job many heavyweights are hoping to get at the moment, but Guivas says the time is right for a challenge of this magnitude.
I’m at the part of my career where I need to step up,” explicou. “When they offered me the fight, I was already somewhat in shape, so I said let’s get in better shape and see what we can do. I think at this time I’m ready for it.
Guivas says he respects Miller’s power, but might have some openings to get a few things done. “Ao longo dos anos, I’ve gotten smarter in the ring. I know the guy is a heavy puncher and had a really good amateur career. He’s got a good jab, but he doesn’t have super fast hands. I’ve also noticed he tends to wear down in the later rounds, so I have to take him deep and see if I can out-box him.
A service technician for Coca Cola during the day, Guivas stared boxing and had his first fight at age eight. He ultimately had around 200 amateur fights and was a two-time silver gloves medalist, won the regional Golden Gloves tournament twice and went to the PAL Nationals. He got the nicknameTwo Gunzfrom promoter Damon Reed.
“Meu promotor, Damon, is my promoter and a fighter too. He gave me that name because of the size of my arms and because I hit him one time and he said he felt like he’d been shot with a gun.
Guivas says he’s working hard at the Danger Fire Gym in Topeka, before and after work every day, and doing things a bit different to prepare for Miller.
I get up early in the morning and get my run in and then in evenings after work I do my boxing and sparring. I end up doing four to five hours a day of training. Non teño elección, but to do it like that. No pasado, I’ve had one or two sparring partners for a fight, and I would go five or six rounds with that guy. Para esta loita, we brought in five guys and I get a fresh one every round. And the guys I’m sparring with are guys that are at the next level or getting ready to become top fighters. I’m getting a fresh look from different guys every round.
A good counterpuncher and a decent boxer, Guivas says a victory vindeiro venres would change everything.
I think beating Miller would definitely put me to the next level. The guy is top 10. If I can get the win I’d be in the money next time. I don’t fight just for the money though. Encantaríame loitar. That’s what I do.

A loita de Ruslan con Lucas Matthysse promedió 1.243 millóns de espectadores e alcanzou o máximo 1.380 millóns de espectadores para o choque, que agora é o principal candidato para 2015 Loita do Ano.

“Ruslan volveu demostrar que é unha enorme atracción,” dixo a presidenta de Promocións Banner Artie Pelullo. “É sen dúbida o loitador máis divertido do boxeo na actualidade, e compróbano as valoracións de cada unha das súas loitas.”

Filadelfia (Abril 20, 2015)— Ese pasado Sábado noite, os afeccionados ao boxeo foron testemuñas dun combate clásico que viu a Lucas Matthysse unha decisión maioritaria Ruslan Provodnikov nunha 12 choque redondo de peso welter diante dunha xente esgotada no Casino Turning Stone Resort de Verona, Nova York.
O ataque, que foi televisado por HBO Boxing After Dark, xa saltou á cabeza da lista para 2015 Loita do Ano.
Moita das conversas post-loita centrouse na coraxe de Provodnikov, mentres loitaba once das doce roldas cun ollo esquerdo gravemente cortado debido a un cabezazo accidental. Co sangue correndo polo lado esquerdo do seu rostro, e o ollo pechándose, Provodnikov loitou heroicamente por volver e ferir a Matthysse varias veces durante o combate, e na rolda once aterrou un gancho esquerdo que case mandou a Matthysse ao lenzo.
Moitos nos arredores, incluído The Bleacher Report, Harold Lederman de HBO, Steve Kim de UCNlive.com, & E Rafael de ESPN.com, marcou o combate incluso en 114-114.
“Non podería estar máis orgulloso de Ruslan, dixo Banner Promotions Promotions Artie Pelullo.
Sábado a noite demostrou que é o loitador máis duro e convincente do boxeo. Sábado loita tamén consolidou que Ruslan é o loitador máis amable da televisión no deporte, e haberá moitos máis grandes combates para Ruslan nun futuro próximo.”

VERONA, Nova York (Abril 18) -Turning Stone Resort Casino en Verona, Nova York recibiu un partido histórico esgotado entre dous dos gladiadores máis emocionantes do boxeo Lucas “La Maqina”” Matthysse (37-3, 34 KO) tomou a vitoria por decisión maioritaria “A Siberian Rocky” Ruslan Provodnikov (24-4, 17 KO) nun combate de peso welter junior de 12 xornadas na cabeceira dividida en HBO Boxing After Dark ®.

Presentado por Banner Promotions e Golden Boy Promotions, & Arano Box Promotions a noite chea de acción amosou a dous atletas loitando no mellor dos seus carreiras, cun disparo de título na división de 140 quilos probablemente colgado no horizonte.

Provodnikov quedou mal cortado na segunda rolda por golpe de cabeza accidental. Matthysse apuntou ao ollo pero Provodnikov percorreu cada disparo. Provodnikov volveu máis tarde na rolda con algunhas combinacións sólidas e lanzou algúns tiros furiosos á cabeza de Matthysse. Matthysse tivo un bo rebote na quinta quenda cando aterrou uns duros golpes na cara dun Provodnikov que se achegaba.

A guerra continuou durante as roldas medias, mentres ambos loitadores ían de punta a punta mentres Matthysse aterraba combinacións desde a distancia e Provodnikov pasaba á ofensiva e seguía loitando. Provodikov tivo unha forte rolda once cando aterrou cunha esquerda dura á cabeza que abrochaba Matthysse e o arxentino viuse obrigado a aguantar. Os dous protagonizaron un último ataque na doce xornada e foi Matthysse o ex campión do WBC que gañou por decisión maioritaria con puntuacións de 115-113 dúas veces e 114-114.

“Creo que dominaba a loita, Sabía que tiña os mellores éxitos,” Sa'id Lucas Matthysse. “Ruslan é un loitador duro, levou todo o que lle tirei. Teño moito respecto por el. Houbo un momento no que pensei que pararían a loita por mor do corte de Ruslan, pero o seu equipo puido controlalo. Ferín a man na sexta rolda, pero seguín porque quería demostrar que son o mellor da división e que estou preparado para os loitadores máis duros. Quero avanzar e loitar contra o gañador de Mayweather-Pacquiao.”

“É o puncher máis duro que loitei nunca, pero loito todo o que poida ata o final,” Dixo Provodnikov. “Nunca quero que a loita pare. A única vez sería cando estou de costas.”

Continuaremos antes da partida dobre HBO Boxing After Dark, Patrick Teixeira(25-0, 21 Kos) de Santa Catarina, Brasil enfrontouse a Accra, De Xeorxia Patrick Allotey (30-2, 24 Kos) nun combate programado de 10 redondas de peso medio. Ambos loitadores enfrontáronse agresivamente na primeira rolda nun emocionante intercambio de duros golpes. Teixeria puxo fin á loita na segunda rolda cando deu un golpe devastador ao corpo de Allotey derrubándoo para gañar a loita por eliminatoria..

“Estou moi feliz e síntome emocionado pola miña primeira loita con Golden Boy Promotions,” dixo Patrick Teixeira. “Quería asegurarme de que os impresionara na miña primeira loita, así que adestrei moi duro para asegurarme de que fun o máximo 10 redondo. Pero estou moi emocionado de conseguir a eliminatoria.”

Vitaly Kopylenko (25-1, 14 KO) gañou unha decisión unánime por oito roldas Lekan Byfield (6-8-2, 1 KO) nun ataque dos medios. Kopylenko derrubou a Byfield dúas veces en golpes que deixaron as cordas ao nativo de Atlanta. Kopylenko percorreu o tramo da loita para gañar por decisión unánime cunha puntuación de 79-72.

I hurt my shoulder in the first round but I was able to gut it out and land some good shots,” said Kopylenko.

Washington, D.C standout, Lamont Roach Jr.. (7-0, 3Kos) faced Carolina, Puerto Rico de Jose Miguel Castro (4-3, 2 Kos) in a scheduled six-round lightweight bout. Roach dominated the fight early on, winning the bout by unanimous decision.

It was my first six-rounder,” said Lamont Roach Jr. “I think that I could have knocked him down or made him quit if I would have hit him harder in the beginning but I trained for six round and wanted to make sure I could go the distance. I did want the knockout towards the end, but I didn’t get it.

Vitor Jones De Oliveira (9-0, 5 KO) won a six round unanimous decision over Guillermo Sanchez (15-14-1, 6 Kos) nun ataque lixeiro. De Oiveira boxed well from the outside and countered the southpaw Sanchez nice and came home with the victory by scores of 59-55 e 58-56 dúas veces.

“Foi unha boa loita. It took me a few rounds to get going but I am very happy with my performance and looking forward to my next fight,” said De Oliveira.

I want to thank Turning Stone Resort Casino, they are a first class operation.
Both these fighters have gotten here fighting tough, top fighters. They want to fight the best just like Oscar and Bernard who are here today. Ruslan and Lucas believe that they are the best, they are fighting each other in their prime, something that is very rare in the sport.

When I was here at Turning Stone Resort Casino last year for the International Boxing Hall of Fame induction, I stood up and preached on how we should put aside our egos to make fights for the fans. This is the perfect example of what boxing can be when you have two great fighters face each other in the ring. Putting on the great fight is what Banner Promotions and Golden Boy Promotions is all about.

HBO is one of the best partners in the business, they are committed to putting on the best fights on television. When you watch HBO, you know it’s the best.

Mario is the top promoter in Argentina, a partner who understands our philosophy, and he trusts us. They have been instrumental to put on the best boxing in the last 10 anos. We have to thank partners like him for our success.

Lucas is one of the best fighters to come out of Argentina. He has a great fighting spirit. He has the best combination of being a brawler and can also box and move when he wants to. This great combination makes him a boxer-puncher, which makes him fun to watch.

“Lucas’ record speaks for himself, with one of the best percentages of knockouts in the sport.

VADIM KORNILOV, Manager for Ruslan Provodnilkov:

I want to thank the whole team for making this fight happen.

Ruslan is ready for this fight, this is something he has been waiting for to show that be is the best in his weight class.
Oscar De La Hoya for saying that the winner of MatthysseProvodnikov should fight the winner of Mayweather -Pacaquio, Oscar that fighter will be Ruslan.
ANDREI NAPOLSKIKH, Co-manager for Ruslan Provodnikov:

This is one of the fights Ruslan has been waiting for,. That has caused a lot of motivation on our side and we are looking forward to a good fight on Saturday, April 18.
Bernard Hopkins, Futuro Hall of Famer e Golden Boy Promotions Socios:
We are here to make the best fights. The kinds of fights the fans want to see.

I want to address the media: you all get a chance to write about good fights, you follow them and you know who the fighters need to fight to be on the highest level. To be able to continue to put on the best fights, we need you to put pressure on us to continue to do strive to put on the fights the fans want to see.

Verona,Nova York (Abril 15) – Training camp is going smoothly for former WBC Light Weight Champion Lucas “La Maquina” Matthysse and Former WBO Jr. campión welterweight “A Siberian Rocky” Ruslan Provodnikov as they continue to prepare for their showdown on Sábado, Abril 18 no Turning Stone Resort Casino. The junior welterweight fight will be televised as part of a split site doubleheader live on HBO Boxing After Dark®, comezando o 9:45 p.m. E/PT.

Matthysse has been training out his gym in Argentina and Provodinkov has been training out of the famed Wild Card Gym in Hollywood, California under the watchful eye of International Boxing Hall of Fame trainer Freddie Roach.

Both fighters arrived at Turning Stone Resort Casino today and took some time to do a photo-op at the hotel and answer a few questions about their training camp.

Below is what they had to say:


How do you feel about the fight and when did you begin training?

Lucas Matthysse: I have been training non-stop, way before the fight was officially announced. I have been doing a lot of sparring to improve my speed and make sure I make as much contact with my opponent as possible.

Ruslan Provodnikov: I am excited and motivated for this fight, I will not disappoint my fans and it will be a real war! Everything is going great with my training and will be ready for a really war in the ring.

How are you preparing to face each other?

Matthysse: Ruslan is a great fighter, he comes prepared for a war. My strategy against him will be to make sure to box and keep moving, that is why sparring has been really important in my training.

Provodnikov: I will be ready for whatever Matthysse does. Eu 100% percent believe that this fight will be the fight of the year. I always give everything I can in training camp and I’m very responsible. Non levo ninguén levemente, but to answer your question: walking into the ring with a fighter that I know will fight back will definitely show that what I can do as a boxer than going up against a fighter who will just run.

What should fans expect to see on Abril 18?

Matthysse: Fans can expect one of the greatest fights in the division. I know I am ready to win this fight and fans should expect a victory.

Provodnikov: I promise this is going to be the fight you guys are all waiting for.
