BROOKLYN (Desembre 8, 2019) – Undefeated WBC Middleweight World ChampionJermall Charlo (30-0, 22 KOs) successfully defended his title for the second time, stopping highly-ranked Irish contender Dennis Hogan (28-3-1, 7 KOs) with a showstopping one-punch knockout in the seventh round Saturday night live on SHOWTIME from Barclays Center, la casa de BROOKLYN BOXA ™, en un acte presentat per Premier Boxing Champions.

WATCH CHARLO’S FINISH

Houston’s Charlo, one of the most exciting young champions in the sport, delivered on his promise that he would close the show in spectacular fashion after going the distance in his previous two bouts. En :28 of round number seven, Charlo set Hogan up by feinting on the jab before connecting on a ferocious left hook to Hogan’s nose that sent him falling against the ropes. The 34-year-old Hogan, who was moving up after most recently challenging for the title at 154 lliura, rose to his feet before the ten count, but referee Charlie Fitch waived off the bout.

When Hogan was dropped in the seventh round, it was the third time in his career that he had been down and the second time during the fight. A la tercera ronda, a vicious left uppercut from Charlo just 12 seconds into the frame sent Hogan rolling backwards onto the canvas, but the Irishman rose quickly and acrobatically to his feet.

Despite throwing far fewer punches, Charlo had the more effective and efficient attack. Charlo va aterrar 86 dels 266 punches he threw (32%) while Hogan landed just 71 dels 418 punches he threw (17%). Despite Hogan landing on 61 cops de poder en comparació amb 57 for Charlo, Hogan was unable to hurt Charlo, while Charlo’s trademark power resulted in another highlight reel stoppage.

“I made it through 2019 and we’re going to 2020 amb 20/20 visió,” said Charlo in the ring following the fight. “Shout out to Dennis Hogan for giving me real competition and for coming up to fight me.Of course my power prevailed tonight.

“We’ve been working on that (the uppercut). I try to take him out with every punch and we work hard for it. He got up and he fought like a champion. Ronnie (Escuts) told me to cut him off. I just threw the shot and I made sure I threw it right on the money.

“The middleweight division is wide open. I’m the WBC Champion. I’m going to enjoy this and spend time with my team. I’m here to fight whoever. You have to make the right decisions and do it at the right time. That’s what it’s all about.”

“I wanted to keep going but the decision was fair enough by the referee,” said Hogan. “I didn’t see the punch coming on the second knockdown. I was trying to keep boxing him but then all of a sudden I was on the ground and the fight was over.

“I’m looking forward to spending the Christmas holiday with my family, taking a month off, and then we’ll work on what’s next for me.”


En la baralla co-estel·lar, Chris Eubank Jr..'S (29-2, 22 KOs) long-awaited United States debut ended in frustrating fashion as his opponent, Matt Korobov (28-3-1, 14 KOs), suffered a bout-ending injury at just :34 de la segona ronda. Because it was ruled a self-inflicted injury, the result was officially declared a TKO victory for Eubank, who picked up the Interim WBA Middleweight Title.

Korobov, a top contender in the middleweight division, injured his left shoulder after throwing a punch that failed to land. After consulting with the ringside doctor, it was deemed that he would be unable to continue.

“I felt like I was about to get my swagger on,” Eubank told SHOWTIME reporter Jim Gray following the stoppage. “He just turned around and stopped. I was going to go jump on him. I guess something happened with his shoulder. There’s nothing to take from the fight. I threw like three or four punches. I was just warming up.”

In the buildup to the fight, Eubank, el fill de la llegenda britànica de la boxa i antic campió mundial de dues divisions Chris Eubank Sr., repeatedly said that there would be a new contender in the stacked middleweight division. Despite not getting a chance to introduce himself to the American audience in the way he envisioned, Eubank is looking ahead to a busy 2020.

“I’m the winner, I’m going to move forward and challenger for these belts,” said Eubank. “This wasn’t my dream. My dream was to come here to America and make a statement. Now that I’ve landed and I settled with the new promotional team, I feel I can get the ball rolling for an active 2020. It’s a shame it had to start like this, but it is what it is.”

“I was trying to throw the left hand straight, and I just felt the muscle immediately, like I pulled it,” va dir Korobov. “It was a lot of pain right away. I couldn’t fight with just one arm, especially being a southpaw.”

In a battle of former world champions to open the telecast, del Japó Ryosuke Iwasa (27-3, 17 KOs) knocked out the Philippines’ Marlon Tapales (33-3, 16 KOs) with a devastating straight left-hand at 1:09 dels 11º ronda. Amb la victòria, Iwasa earned the vacant Interim IBF World Junior Featherweight Title.

Iwasa, who held a six-and-a-half-inch reach advantage, was more consistent throughout the entirety of the bout, stringing together multi-punch combinations. The decisive moment of the 12-round fight came in the penultimate round, when Tapales was caught with a counter left-hand that connected flush on his chin and put him sprawled on the canvas. Tapales beat the count, rising after eight seconds, but referee Shada Murdaugh waved the fight off.

En el moment de la detenció, Iwasa led on all three scorecards (97-92, 95-94, 97-92). While Tapales was more accurate throughout the night, Iwasa was busier and landed 163 cops totals en comparació amb 148 for Tapales and held a 125-99 advantage in power punches landed. A la tercera ronda, Tapales was dropped to a knee after an accidental clash of heads. The clash, which was incorrectly ruled a knockdown, caused severe swelling under Tapales’ right eye and swung a would-be 10-9 round in his favor to a 10-8 round in Iwasa’s favor.

“I knew that I had him hurt in the 11º round and I was ready for the finish if the referee had let him keep fighting,” said the 29-year-old Iwasa. “It was a tough fight but I trained really hard for this performance. My height and reach was definitely an advantage. I was able to put my punches together well. He never hurt me but he was still difficult and I had to focus to figure him out.

“We’re ready for anyone next. I’m going to keep working hard to become a world champion again next year.”

On Saturday’s telecast it was announced that former two-division world champion Danny Garcia would return to the ring on Saturday, Gener 25 en viu per SHOWTIME a Barclays Center. During an interview with SHOWTIME Sports host Brian Custer, Garcia discussed his anticipated return to the ring.

“Gener 25, I’m back at Barclays Center, my home away from home,” va dir Garcia. “It’s a great atmosphere. Every time I’m here, I get the jitters, so I just can’t wait to be back. I’ve been in the gym for a month. I’m already ready. I don’t know who my opponent is, but whoever they put in front of me, Estic preparat per aconseguir-ho.

“Abans de res, gràcies a Déu (Errol) Spence is doing good. I hear that he’s recovering well. I was really looking forward to fighting him but maybe he could be next after January 25. Pac-Man (Manny Pacquiao) or Spence, that’s who we want. 2020 is going to be a big year for me.”

Prior to the telecast on SHOWTIME, SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING COUNTDOWN streamed live on the Canal de YouTube SHOWTIME Sports i Pàgina SHOWTIME Boxa Facebook and saw Ronald Ellis (17-1-2, 11 KOs) win a majority decision over Immanuel Aleem (18-2-2, 11 KOs) in their 10-round super middleweight fight.

The back and forth affair saw both men grab the momentum of the fight at different points, but it was Ellis’ activity and ability to box effectively from the outside that gave him the edge. While one judge had the fight 95-95, he was overruled by two scores of 98-92 i 97-93 for Ellis.

The opening streaming bout saw Louisa Hawton (10-2, 5 KOs) retain her Interim WBC Atomweight Championship by unanimous decision in an all-action rematch againstLorraine Villalobos (4-3, 2 KOs).

Hawton came back after being dropped by a powerful left hook from Villalobos in the sixth round. Hawton was saved by the bell in the round and finished the fight strong, punctuating the action getting the best of several exchanges in the late rounds to win by the score of 95-94 en les tres targetes.

Middleweight Star Chris Eubank Jr. & Top Contender Matt Korobov Discuss Upcoming Showdown for Interim WBA Middleweight Title On Saturday, Desembre 7 En viu per SHOWTIME® from Barclays Center in Premier Boxing Champions Event



BROOKLYN (Novembre 19, 2019) – Middleweight star Chris Eubank Jr.. i els principals candidats Matt Korobov shared their thoughts on their upcoming showdown for the Interim WBA Middleweight Title taking place Saturday, Desembre 7 en viu per SHOWTIME a Barclays Center,la casa de BROOKLYN BOXA ™.



The middleweight division will take center stage on the SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING®transmissió per televisió (9 p.m. ET / 6 pm. PT) that is headlined by undefeated WBC Middleweight World Champion Jermall Charlo defending his title against highly-ranked contender Dennis Hogan. A la primera baralla de la transmissió per televisió, former world champions Marlon Tapales i Ryosuke Iwasawill meet for an interim 122-pound title.



Les entrades per a l'esdeveniment en viu, which is promoted by Lions Only Promotions and TGB Promotions, are on-sale now and can be purchased at ticketmaster.com
i barclayscenter.com. Tickets also can be purchased at the American Express Box Office at Barclays Center. Descomptes per a grups estan disponibles trucant al 844-BKLYN-GP.



Eubank will make his U.S. pro debut on December 7, after establishing himself as a contender at 160 i 168 pounds while fighting in his native United Kingdom. He most recently registered a career-best win over former champion James DeGale in February on SHOWTIME in London but will now move back down to 160 pounds to seek a title at middleweight beginning with the fight against Korobov.



Korobov will return to fight at Barclays Center for the second time nearly one year after losing a close decision to Charlo as a late replacement opponent last December in Brooklyn. After fighting to a controversial draw against Immanuwel Aleem in May, Korobov will look to make a statement against Eubank to earn another shot at a world title.



Here is what Eubank and Korobov had to say about their matchup, a future fight with Jermall Charlo and more:



CHRIS EUBANK JR.



How does it feel to be making your U.S. pro debut on December 7? What are you looking to show the U.S. fans in this fight?



“It’s always been a dream of mine to fight in the U.S. Even with everything I’ve done in the sport over in the U.K, I’ve always felt there was something missing and I believe it was the urge to introduce myself and my fight style to the American audience of fight fans. Now I have my opportunity.”



Why did you make the decision to move down to middleweight for this fight? In what ways are you stronger at 160-pounds?



“I’ve never been a real super middleweight. I walk around at 170 pounds out of competition and have to eat breakfast the day of my weigh-ins to make 168. I believe at 160 I am going to be a beast now that I have become accustomed to fighting much bigger fighters over the last three years.”



What do you know about Korobov as a fighter and how do you see this fight going stylistically?



“I think Korobov will be awkward until I pin him down and when I do, I will show the audience why I am a fan friendly fighter.”



If you’re able to get past Korobov, what would you think of a fight against Jermall Charlo? What advantages do you think you have in that fight?



“When I dispatch of Korobov, Charlo is definitely the name that’s on my radar. He is seen as one of the elite fighters in the middleweight division and I intend to prove that he is not on my level. It will be satisfying stamping my mark on the division against Charlo after I beat Korobov. I think it will be a great fight for the fans as together our styles would make for a very exciting bout.”



MATT KOROBOV



Is it exciting to be back at Barclays Center as the co-main event to Charlo, because with a win, you have an opportunity to show him why you deserve the rematch?



“Sí, it is very exciting to be back at Barclays Center, only this time I will leave with the belt. I thought I deserved an immediate rematch against Charlo because many people believed I won. I think when I defeat Eubank Jr. and win this belt, it will force Charlo to give me a rematch. We shall see. I only focus on one fight at a time and right now I am only focused on Chris Eubank Jr.”

How do you stay mentally focused on the next fight when you believe you had two bad scorecards go against you?



“I do not focus on the past. I focus on the future because I can only control the future. I will be my best and my best will be good enough against Chris Eubank Jr. We’re doing everything possible in camp to make sure I’m ready.”

What do you make of Eubank as a fighter? How do you expect the fight to look stylistically?



“Eubank is a very good fighter, one of the best. I believe I am a more disciplined fighter. I think my technique is better, but he does some things very well. Let’s see on December 7. I don’t want to give away the weaknesses I see, but the style difference will make a very entertaining fight for the fans.

Do you think you have the advantage as far as boxing skills over Eubank? How do you counter his possible size advantage, given that he’s coming down from 168 lliura?



“I think my skills are better. I do not think weight will be an issue. He is professional and I am professional. Si alguna cosa, perhaps it is a little more difficult for him to make 160 after years at 168. I will fight anyone between 160 i 168 lliura, so I don’t see any problem with weight for me, perhaps more for him. We will find out December 7.”

El camp de Korobov exigeix ​​la investigació

Leave a comment
Per veure la carta i les exposicions evidenciadores adjuntes, clic AQUÍ.


L’equip que representa el WBC #14 de pes mig Matvey Korobov ha enviat una carta al fiscal general i governador de Virgínia, demanant que obrin una investigació sobre el controvertit sorteig de Korobov dissabte passat (Maig 11) contra el lluitador de Virgínia Immanuwel Aleem i diversos "incidents circumdants" rellevants.




Leon Margules, Advocat de Team Korobov, va enviar la carta en nom del lluitador, juntament amb diverses proves de suport, al fiscal general de Virgínia, Mark Herring i al governador Ralph Northam.


En ell, Margules assenyala el que al·lega és un conflicte d’interès perquè els dos jutges de Virgínia, Mark D’Actilio i Brian Costello, que van governar sobretot el mal 95-95, són membres de la boxa de l'Estat, Arts marcials, i el consell assessor de lluita professional responsable de seleccionar els jutges de cada lluita i els combatents de llicències.


Costello, de fet, és el president del consell.


I així, Dos membres de l'organisme responsables de designar els jutges d'una lluita designats i un àrbitre relativament inexpert (Michelle Myers) de Virgínia a oficialitzar un atac televisat nacionalment amb un lluitador del seu estat natal, contra Korobov, Un rus que viu a Florida.


A continuació, es pregunta per què, De les tres baralles televisades, aquest va ser l'únic que es va dur a terme així, amb funcionaris no neutres.


La carta també fa referència al quadre de comandament original proporcionat als mitjans de comunicació, Això va mostrar a Korobov com a guanyador de la decisió majoritària, així com el mateix quadre de comandament 20 minuts més tard, amb la ronda de D’Attilio 10 La puntuació de Korobov es va ratllar i va canviar de 10 a un 9, Transformar el resultat en un sorteig majoritari.


Un altre punt de contenció és el rendiment de jutges dels dos jutges basats a Virgínia, que va marcar la lluita un empat quan una victòria de Korobov va ser gairebé universalment acordada pels mitjans de comunicació i els fans de la boxa, posterior a la baralla.


A la majoria, Korobov va semblar guanyar les set primeres rondes i va ferir a Aleem malament a la sisena ronda abans que Aleem va muntar una remuntada menor en les dues o tres rondes últimes. A la campana final, Korobov va gaudir d'un avantatge important en els cops de puny desembarcats (Segons les estadístiques de Compubox, Korobov va aterrar 154 cops de puny de 417 llançat (37%), Mentre Aleem va aterrar 119 trets de fora 630 [19%]).


Respecte oficial de boxa i jutge no oficial del concurs, Larry Hazard Sr., va marcar la lluita 97-92.


També s'adjunta una llarga llista de fans a les xarxes socials que veuen la corrupció sospitosa.


La carta de Margules també assenyala el que molts consideren una derrota perduda per l'àrbitre Myers a la quarta ronda, Quan Korobov va enviar Aleem amb un taulell dret només per tenir -ne la regla incorrectament.


L’equip Korobov assegura que espera que l’estat trobi una solució per a aquesta desgraciada situació per evitar un altre ull negre per a la boxa i un “efecte esgarrifós” sobre els combatents que vinguin a lluitar a Virgínia.

FAIRFAX, Virginia. (Maig 11, 2019) - Julian “J-Rock’’ Williams knew he was walking into the lion’s den when he traveled from Philadelphia to Virginia to face undefeated unified super welterweight champion “Swift” Jarrett Hurd in his backyard. But Williams (27-1-1, 16 KOs) wasn’t afraid.


Va venir. He saw and he conquered Hurd (23-1, 16 KOs), scoring a 12-round unanimous decision, handing Hurd his first loss and taking the IBF, WBA and IBO championships before a hometown crowd at the EagleBank Arena on the campus of George Mason University.


The crowd and the primetime audience, which tuned in to FOX and FOX Deportes, witnessed a valiant performance from both Williams and Hurd in what will certainly be a “Fight of the Year’’ candidate. The judges had Williams handily defeating Hurd with scores of 116-111 i 115-112 dues vegades.


Williams had come up short in his previous attempt at a world title when he was stopped on via TKO by Jermall Charlo in 2016. He was overwhelmed by emotions after his upset victory over Hurd, who was a presumptive favorite over the 29-year-old Williams.


“I am just overwhelmed. This is such a great feeling. I outclassed him. I am one of the best fighters in the world,", Va dir Williams. “Maybe I wasn’t ready for the title the first time I got the shot. I took the loss. I took it like a man and the whole world doubted me. I went into this fight a five to one underdog.’’


“Això és un somni fet realitat. I have been waiting for this for years. I never ditched the gym. I never got into girls or left the gym. I am from the streets, but I was never in the streets. I was in the gym practicing my craft.


“The only people that believed in me were my team, but all I can say is ‘and the new’!”


Hurd is often a slow starter and Williams made him pay for that. He jumped on the defending champion right out of the gate, throwing crisp punches behind a pistol-like jab. Williams dropped Hurd in the second round with a shot to the temple.


“It didn’t really change my strategy. It was just a flash knockdown. It caught me by surprise. I wasn’t really hurt,’’ Hurd said.


Sensing he had stunned Hurd, Williams came out firing in the next round. He picked up the pace and Hurd decided to match the ferocity of the attack rather than wither under it. Midway through the third round, Hurd landed a blistering left uppercut that snapped Williams’ head upward and slowly started to regain his form.


Hurd and Williams went to the trenches in the middle rounds, closing the distance and fighting in tight quarters. Conventional wisdom would seem to favor Hurd in that space, because he is physically bigger than Williams. But Williams did more than hold his own.


By the seventh round, the fight had become a war of attrition and a test of wills. Hurd was cut over his left eye in the eighth round. By then, Williams was completely in control.


Williams said he was well prepared for everything that Hurd threw at him, but it was by no means a cakewalk.


“He wasn’t easier to hit than I thought. He was crafty and he had heavy hands. I just stayed poised. I listened to my coach and I just worked,’’ Williams said. “He couldn’t hurt me. I saw everything he was throwing. El vaig fer caure. The game plan was to win however I could. I adapted on the fly. We knew he had certain tendencies and worked on his tendencies. ''


Hurd said he didn’t feel like himself in the fight against Williams. Fighting in front of a raucous hometown crowd filled with family and friends as he hails from nearby Accokeek, Maryland.


“I wasn’t able to get off. I can’t really call it right now. I have to go back and watch. I was loading up on my shots instead of just letting my hands go,’’ Hurd said. “J-Rock was just the better man tonight. There’s definitely a rematch clause in our contract and I’m going to go for it. I’m going to come back better than I was tonight.’’


Super lightweight sensation Mario Barrios (24-0, 15 KOs) scored a devastating second round knockout victory over Juan Jose Velasco (20-2, 12 KOs) en la baralla co-estel·lar. Barrios of San Antonio, Texas kept his undefeated record intact when he landed a crushing body shot that sent Velasco to the canvas midway through the second round. Referee Hugo Spinola counted out Velasco at 1:16 of the second round as the Argentine was on his hands and knees trying to catch his breath.


Barrios said he was trying to be patient and use his jab to set up the perfect shot.


“I saw him opening up every time he would step in. I knew one of the body shots was going to do it and I found the sweet spot,’’ Barrios said. “We weren’t expecting it to end that quickly. I wasn’t predicting a knock out, but I knew I had the power to do it and stop him.”


“I was very confident. Vaig tenir un gran campament. I can’t thank Virgil Hunter and the team for the preparation for this fight. We knew he was vulnerable with body punches and that was something I work on regardless. It is one of my favorite shots. I have been working on it since the amateurs.”


Barrios said he would build on the victory over Velasco and continue to climb the ladder at 140 lliura.


“I want a world title shot. I am always in the gym. I am always ready. I want all the smoke at 140. I want any of the champions. And I’m ready to bring a big fight to all my hometown fans in San Antonio.’’


In the opening television bout middleweight contenders Matt Korobov of Orotukan, Russia and Immanuwel Aleem of East Meadow, N.Y. stalked each other for 10 rondes. They took turns pressing the action and playing the aggressor, dishing out and absorbing the best that each had to offer. In the end Korobov (29-2, 14 KOs) and Aleem (18-2-1, 11 KOs) had fought to a majority draw. One judge had Korobov winning 97-93 and two judges scored it 95-95.


In the sixth round Korobov landed a combination that rocked Aleem and had him in trouble momentarily. But Aleem weathered the storm. Aleem came out strong in the ninth round, practically running across the ring to meet Korobov, who had slowly raised his 36-year-old body off the corner stool at the last second. Sensing the close nature of the fight, both Korobov and Aleem unloaded and landed some heavy shots seeking to keep the outcome away from the judges’ scorecards.


Aleem said he thought he won the fight.


“I didn’t feel like he was doing enough. I was trying to use my range. He was just touching me. I realized when I started hitting him that he didnt have the gas.,’’ Aleem said. “I am faster than people think. I see open shots better than people expect. I made a statement tonight and I want to keep making statements.”


Korobov , who lost a unanimous decision to Jermall Charlo in his last fight, said he felt sluggish during the match against Aleem.


“I felt heavy and not totally sharp enough. It was hard to react and stop him from going inside. I have things to work on.,’’ Korobov said. “He was tougher than I expected. He wasn’t as strong as Charlo, but he is a really good fighter. He kept coming forward. He wasn’t afraid. He just kept throwing punches.”

Here is what the fighters had to say Thursday from the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel in Arlington, Virginia:

Jarrett Hurd

“This has been a great week. This is the homecoming I always wanted. It’s even better than I imagined and I can’t wait to step into the ring.

“You can tell a lot about a fighter when you see them in the lead up to a fight. Julian Williams looks confident and he looks ready. It’s going to be a classic on fight night.

“It’s been fun to have this support from the city and my hometown. It’s fueled me. The love and support motivated me in the gym to make sure I go out there and put on a show.

“I’m a big 154-pounder but I know how to cut the weight and get it off right. We’re still eating and we’ll be strong come fight night.”

JULIAN WILLIAMS

“I really don’t think too much about fighting in his hometown. I’ve fought on the road my whole career. I just focus on the fight, not what’s going on outside of the ring.

“We touched on a lot of different things in training camp. We left no stone unturned. It sounds cliché and I’ve never said this before, but this was the best camp I’ve ever had. I’m ready to go get this win.

“I just see a man over there. His crowd can’t fight for him. That’s all it’s going to be Saturday night.

“The jab is always a key. It’s the most important punch in boxing and it’s the key for me no matter who I fight. I always work with bigger guys in camp so the size is going to be nothing new.”

MARIO BARRIS

“We focused on being explosive in training camp. Working with Virgil Hunter was great as always. This is a big opportunity and I’m excited to put on a great show for these fans.

“És un lluitador famolenc. Això és el principal. He’s tasted defeat and he doesn’t want to again. I’m blocking his path. Dissabte a la nit, he’s not getting past me.

“I’m getting stronger and better every camp. There’s not too much to say, but I’m just looking forward to getting in the ring Saturday.”

JUAN JOSE VELASCO

“The fight against Regis Prograis was very tough and important for me. I want to be champion of the world and it showed me what I need to do to achieve that goal. I’m going to put what I learned on display Saturday.

“We’ve watched him and we know what he’s capable of doing. We know we have to be prepared to get this victory.”

MATT KOROBOV

“I took the fight against Jermall Charlo as a win because people know me better now and know where I stand in this division with my performance on short notice. I’m happy to be back and have this fight. My team did a great job preparing and we’ll be ready on Saturday night.”

Sóc OFMUS ELEs.

“My trainer George Peterson has always stressed to train year round. We’re not part time fighters. I’m always in the gym working. When the fight comes, we’re always prepared.

“Korobov is another opponent who’s in my way to becoming a world champion. I’ve gotten some good work with southpaws to get ready for him and I feel fully prepared.

L'espectacle de tres hores de campions de boxa Premier compta amb Jamal James fent un nocaut a la segona ronda de Mahonry Montes davant la multitud de la ciutat natal divendres a la nit a FS1 & FOX Deportes de The Armory de Minneapolis

Leave a comment

MINNEAPOLIS (Agost 24, 2018) – Contendent de pes welter Jamal James (24-1, 11 KOs)va donar un regal a la gent de la seva ciutat natal mentre enviava Mahonry Montes (35-8-1, 24 KOs)a la tela per a un nocaut de segona ronda en l'esdeveniment principal d'una nit plena de tres hores de Lliga de Campions de Boxa acció divendres des de l'Armeria de Minneapolis, Minnesota.

 

 

 

“Vaig sortir aquí per fer una declaració i estic encara més feliç de poder-ho fer aquí mateix a casa,” va dir James. “El suport a Minnesota és increïble i em va donar una motivació addicional per fer la feina d'una manera espectacular. Tothom sap que ataco el cos i aquesta nit l'he pogut utilitzar per aconseguir el final”

 

 

 

En la seva segona lluita consecutiva a l'Armeria, James va fer una declaració enviant ràpidament els Montes de Mèxic amb un ganxo d'esquerra castigador al cos que va deixar el seu oponent arrugat a la lona..

 

 

 

James va trencar a l'últim 30 segons de la segona ronda, aterrant nombroses mans dretes sense resposta que van posar Montes en problemes immediats. James va acabar l'espectacle amb el devastador tir al cos que finalment va obligar l'àrbitre Mark Nelson a aturar el combat 2:58 de la ronda.

 

 

 

“Sento que estic preparat per als pes welter d'elit i aquesta nit ho he tornat a demostrar,” va dir James. “Seguiré treballant dur i eliminant qualsevol persona que em posin al davant. Ha arribat el moment de deixar la meva empremta a la divisió.”

 

 

 

En l'esdeveniment co-principal, contendent de pes mitjà Willie Monroe Jr.. (23-3, 6 KOs) va mostrar la seva habilitat de boxa i es va separar Javier Francisco Maciel (33-7, 23 KOs) per prendre una decisió unànime en el seu combat de 10 rondes.

 

 

 

Monroe era dominant amb el seu jab, moviment i una sèrie d'atacs ofensius. Va ser capaç de variar els seus cops prou com per evitar que l'agressiu Maciel aterrissin qualsevol cosa que causés danys.

 

 

 

Maciel va mirar de marcar amb cops de força i tirs al cos, però l'antic desafiador al títol Monroe es va sentir còmode per fora i barrejant-ho per dins en el seu camí per guanyar la lluita per desenes de 99-91 i 100-90 dues vegades.

 

 

 

L'atac d'obertura de la televisió va comptar amb una perspectiva en ascens ràpid i 2016 Olímpic lituà Eimantas Stanionis (7-0, 5 KOs) ja que va obtenir una decisió unànime Levan Ghvamichava (18-4-1, 13 KOs)en el seu enfrontament de vuit rondes de pes welter.

 

 

 

Stanionis va fer un cop potent i una combinació nítida donant cops a la victòria dominant mentre s'enfrontava a l'oposició més dura de la seva carrera professional fins ara.. Ghvamichava va ser un joc i va intentar contrarestar el dur Stanionis, però massa sovint s'emportava el pitjor dels intercanvis per dins.. Al final de l'acció, els tres jutges van veure l'enfrontament a favor de Stanionis per dotzes 80-72 i 79-73 dues vegades.

 

 

 

Serra d'acció addicional Jeison Rosario (16-1-1, 11 KOs) aprovar una decisió unànime Jamontay Clark (13-1, 7 KOs) en el seu combat de 10 rondes de pes superwelter.

 

 

 

Rosario va anotar una caiguda del rodet destacada amb una contra mà dreta a la tercera ronda que va veure Clark sortir del ring.. Clark va poder tornar al ring i vèncer el recompte, però va patir més danys durant tot el combat abans de perdre la decisió per centenes de 99-90, 98-91 i 97-92, tots a favor de Rosario.

 

 

 

Un combat de pes pesat programat va acabar d'una manera impactant abans de començar, com a perspectiva de pes pesat Adora a Ajagba (6-0, 5 KOs) va obtenir una victòria per desqualificació en contra Curtis Harper (13-6, 9 KOs) quan Harper va sortir del ring moments després que sonés la campana d'obertura, optant per no enfrontar-se a l'Ajagba.

 

 

 

Les preliminars a FS1 i FOX Deportes van veure un augment de la perspectiva de pes superwelter Sebastià Fundora (10-0, 6 KOs) parar Antonio Urista (10-3, 2 KOs)a 2:22 de la quarta ronda, superpès welter invicte Leon Lawson (8-0, 4 KOs) guanyar una decisió unànime sobre Brandon Adams (4-7-1, 2 KOs) en la seva lluita de sis rondes i perspectiva invicta Gary Antonio Russell (12-0,10 KOs) anotar un nocaut de la primera ronda Nick Otieno (31-15, 13 KOs) només 1:18 a la ronda.

MINNEAPOLIS (Agost 2, 2018) – Contendent de pes welter Jamal James will return to action in his hometown as he takes on Mexico’s Mahonry Montes in the main event of an exciting night of Campions Premier de Boxa a FOX i FOX Deportes action Friday, Agost 24 de l'Armeria de Minneapolis, Minnesota.

 

 

 

La transmissió comença a les 8:00 p.m. I / 5:00 p.m. PT and will feature middleweight contenders Willie Monroe Jr.. i Immanuel Aleem going to battle in a 10-round attraction and unbeaten rising prospect Jamontay Clark taking on once-beaten Jeison Rosario en un concurs de pes súper welter a 10 assalts.

 

 

 

Les entrades per a l'esdeveniment en viu, que està impulsat per TGB Promotions i Warriors Boxing, ja estan a la venda i estan disponibles visitant-los www.ArmoryMN.com oTicketmaster.com.

 

 

 

“Jamal James is building a following in his hometown of Minneapolis as he builds momentum in the welterweight division, and this fight against Mahonry Montes will help him accomplish both things,” va dir Tom Brown, President de Promocions TGB. “The undercard features some strong matches that include boxers who will figure prominently into the championship picture in the near future. It will be an entertaining show for the fans in Minneapolis and those tuning in on FS1 and FOX Deportes.”

 

 

 

“Warriors Boxing is very excited to return to the beautiful newly-renovated Armory in Minneapolis with another PBC on FS1 and FOX Deportes show,” va dir Leon Margules, President de Warriors Boxing. “In addition to the great lineup of televised fights, headlined by local star Jamal James, favorite son and former world champion Caleb Truax returns to the ring at home for the first time since back-to-back road performance in world title fights.”

 

James (23-1, 10 KOs) built on the biggest victory of his career – a knockout over tough veteran Diego Chaves last December – with a decision win against Abel Ramos in April at the Armory and on FS1. The 30-year-old James has picked up three-straight victories since suffering the only loss of his career – a unanimous decision defeat to Yordenis Ugas in August 2016. He returns to downtown Minneapolis looking to keep his momentum going towards the top of the welterweight division.

 

 

 

“I’m in camp training hard for another thriller at home against a pressure fighter in Mahonry Montes,” va dir James. “I’m going to use my height, range and skills to show that I’m hungry and keeping my eyes on the prize. Once I get past Montes, a big name is going to have to fight me. I’m right on the road to a world title challenge.”

 

 

 

El jove de 28 anys Muntanyes (35-7-1, 24 KOs) has challenged everyone from world champions to top rising prospects throughout his pro career and enters this bout having scored knockout victories in consecutive fights. Representing Sinaloa, Mèxic, Montes owns a victory over welterweight contender Francisco Santana in a fight last year that saw Montes drop his opponent on the way to a decision victory.

 

 

 

“I’m am so excited to have this opportunity against Jamal James,” said Montes. “My last loss was unfortunate because I thought I had my opponent hurt, but I’ve picked up a couple of wins since then and have been training very hard. I’m ready to show everyone that I belong with the best fighters in the world. I’m never in a bad fight and I’m going to show the fans in Minnesota how a real Mexican fights.”

 

 

 

A two-time title challenger, Monroe (22-3, 6 KOs) has faced current titlists Gennady Golovkin and Billy Joe Saunders in his forays into championship fights. The 31-year-old from Rochester, New York has defeated Gabriel Rosado, Brian Vera and John Thompson since 2015 to earn multiple opportunities at the middleweight title. Monroe most recently won a dominant decision over Carlos Galvan in March.

 

 

 

Fighting out of Virginia, Aleem (18-1-1, 11 KOs) stopped Juan De Angel in the sixth-round of their May fight to get back in the win column after his first defeat in a bout against Hugo Centeno Jr last August. The 24-year-old had stopped then unbeaten Ievgen Khytrov in the sixth round of a January 2017 fight that became a Fight of the Year nominee prior to the Centeno fight.

 

 

 

El jugador de 23 anys d'edat, Clark (13-0, 7 KOs) has used his height and reach to establish himself as a fast-rising prospect on his way to contender status. The Cincinnati-native had two impressive victories in 2017, first defeating then unbeaten Ivan Golub and then a decision victory over Domonique Dolton last November as he came out victorious against his toughest pro opponent so far.

 

Rosario (15-1-1, 11 KOs) fights out of Miami but is originally from the Dominican Republic. Rosario suffered his first defeat last year at the hands of Nathaniel Gallimore, but has rebounded to be undefeated in his last four fights. This run has seen the 23-year-old fight to a draw with Mark Anthony Hernandez in February before defeating Justin DeLoach and dropping him twice on his way to a decision victory in May.
