Barroso raced out and set a fast pace over the first four rounds. Crolla was biding his time landing some good shots on the the middle of the ring and he started to take over on a fading Barroso towards the end of round five. In round six, Crolla began to hurt Barroso and the Venezuelan challenger started to break down and seemed spent as he walked to his corner. Crolla jumped on Barroso and landed a tremendous flurry of punches that put Barroso on the canvas for the ten count.

It was the second straight stunning knockout for Crolla on AWE–A Wealth of Entertainment as he won his title with a knockout over Darleys Perez in November.

Crolla is now 31-4-3 met 13 uitklophoue. Barroso is 19-1-2.

Pulev is 23-1. Chisora is 25-6.

Shayne Singleton stopped Anwil Anwar in round eight of their ten round welterweight contest.

Singleton looked like he was going to make it a quick and easy night as he dropped Anwar in round one from a left hook. Anwar was able to steady himself and have success over the next handful of rounds by getting in some good right hands. With the fight being on an even level, Singleton landed a big left that sent Anwar down in round eight. Anwar was clearly hurt, and Singleton jumped all over him and the fight was quickly stopped at 1:37 of round right.

Singleton is now 23-1 met agt uitklophoue. Anwar is 22-6.

Skryf 'n opmerking
Heading into his showdown with WBA World Lightweight Champion Anthony Crolla (30-4-3, 12 Uitklophoue) Saterdag night at the Manchester Arena in Manchester, Verenigde Koninkryk, WBA #1-rated contender and interim champion Ismael Barroso (19-0-2, 18 Uitklophoue) and his team wish to offer their sincere respect to the “future former champion.”
“He is a true champion,” said Barroso of Crolla. “There were easier domestic fights for more money he could have taken, but he wanted to do the right thing and face his top challenger. I admire him for that.”
Ongelukkig, the murderous punching Barroso, El Tigre, Venezuela, says he’ll be ending the brave Englishman’s run as champion Saterdag nag.
“Hy (Crolla) won the WBA title by an upset last year and he’s a likeable man,” continued Barroso, “but all good things come to an end. When they help him up after the fightSaterdag, he will have all my respect and I wish him very well for the rest of his life.”
Greg Cohen, promoter of Barroso, agrees with his fighter’s sentiment.
“Anthony is a true champion, but he’s in way over his head in this one. And him being in his home country and the fans backing him, that only makes Ismael that much more determined. Crolla has had a great and surprising run as champion, but there’s not much anyone can do for him in the face of the kind of power he’s up against.”

Canada’s Tony Luis Disappointed in Scoring of Controversial Loss, but Vows to Keep Fighting for his Goals!

Skryf 'n opmerking

Canadian lightweight Tony “Weerlig” Luis (19-3, 7 Uitklophoue) says he’s disappointed with the scoring of his controversial unanimous-decision loss last weekend to Derry Mathews (38-9-2, 20 Uitklophoue) for the interim WBA Lightweight title in Matthews’ hometown of Liverpool, Engeland, but won’t let it deter him from his goals.

Despite taking the fight on three days’ kennisgewing, Luis seemed to outwork Matthews in most rounds and would probably be wearing a championship belt today, had the fight been contested on neutral ground. Ongelukkig, the European judges saw it another way, scoring it 114-112 (Jean Legland, FRA), 115-112 (Dave Parris, Verenigde Koninkryk) en 114-112 (Stefano Carozza, ITA), all for Matthews.

“I can’t say I feel good,” said Luis, home safely in Cornwall, Ontario. “This was my shot and I didn’t get the decision, but I know with my performance, I’ll get another one. Most of the press and the fans, especially in North America, know what’s up and saw the fight for what it really was. Derry did what he had to do to survive but not enough to win. He was cagey and made the fight look more competitive than it was, and that’s what a veteran is supposed to do.”

Despite his disappointment in the scoring, Luis says taking the fight was still a good career choice. “It was absolutely the right decision. You don’t turn down a title shot. But taking it on three days’ kennisgewing, we knew we’d have to shake off the jetlag quickly. My game plan was good, but on such short notice, it wasn’t muscle memory. I had to keep thinking about it in the ring. That’s why I think it took me three rounds to get going. Despite all this, I still won the fight. Now I know I belong among the champions in this division and that’s a good feeling.”

Luis’ promotor, Greg Cohen van Greg Cohen Promotions, says he’s pleased with his fighter’s strong performance and will immediately go to work for the 27-year-old.

“Tony looked sensational Saterdag,” gesê Cohen. “Taking the fight on such short notice, you’d think fatigue would play a role, but he was a machine in there. That shows you how hard he works in the gym. Of course we’re disappointed in the scoring, but looking at the big picture, we now know we have a championship-caliber fighter in Tony. He responded perfectly to the pressure of a world championship fight. I will be petitioning the sanctioning bodies to keep Tony high up in the ratings and give him another title shot very soon. This time on neutral ground.”

Luis will be returning to action quickly, he is set to fight for a regional title against an opponent TBA on Junie 26 at the Seneca Niagara Event Center in Niagara Falls, New York, and live on CBS Sports Network.

“I’m a bit discouraged from the politics,” voortgegaan Luis, “but am I deterred from my goals? Absolutely not. The people have spoken, the fans know who won and that is consolation for me. I will keep moving forward!”

He will now take Luis’ place in Hinckley and will take on Terry in an eight-round attraction Vrydag.

“It worked out well for everyone,” gesê Greg Cohen. “Tony Luis was high enough in the ratings and ready to fight, so he’s one of the few fighters in the world who could have stepped into this important fight on such short notice. And fortunately, he is a GCP fighter as well, so we made it happen quickly and he is on his way to the UK as we speak. Tony gets his dream shot at a world championship and the fans in Hinckley, and on CBS Sports Network, will get their first look at one of the most fearsome punchers in boxing, Ismael Barroso. So it seems that everyone wins in this unique situation.”

Promotor Greg Cohen stuur sy geluk uit te steeds-onoorwonne hotklou Ismael “El Tigre” Barroso, en 'n gasheer van ander, ná sy hoogs suksesvolle en heeltemal uitverkoop quadrupleheader opwindende ShoBox: Die nuwe generasie-televisie uitklophoueVrydag aand by die Space by Westbury in Westbury, New York.

 

Barroso (17-0-2, 16 Uitklophoue), El Tigre, Venezuela, het sy Amerikaanse televisie debuut en opgetel die bure en Naba Liggewig Kampioenskappe met 'n indrukwekkende TKO oor gutty New Yorker Issouf Kinda (17-3, 7 Uitklophoue).

 

Na vyf rondes van absorbeer Barroso se krag, insluitend 'n vyfde ronde een-punch uitklop, Kinda probleme met sy visie ontwikkel en die stryd is gestop net drie sekondes in die sesde ronde. Barroso se eye-opening oorwinning, egter, was nie sonder 'n prys, as hy gely nare sny bo sy regteroog en onder sy linkeroog toevallige heabutts.

 

“Barroso het mag soos (voormalige middelgewig-kampioen) Julian Jackson. Hy tref ouens en hulle gaan,” gesê 'n gelukkige Cohen, post-stryd. “Mense wil vegters soos wat om te sien. Steve Farhood van Showtime gesê Ismael is 'n boks se bes bewaarde geheime.’ Die geheim is nou uit. My man is 'n dier!”

 

Die wrede oorwinning oor Kinda sal sekerlik Barroso herstel na die verhewe hoogtes in die wêreld graderings hy eens geniet. Hy was voorheen gegradeerde #5 in die wêreld voor visum probleme oorreed sy loopbaan. Maar terug op die regte spoor nou en werk met GCP, die lug lyk die limiet vir hierdie Suid-Amerikaanse met graniet vuiste te wees.

 

“Ons wil 'n posisie vegter volgende,” voortgegaan Cohen, “met die doel om 'n wêreld kampioenskap stryd en 'n uiteindelike alles-Venezuela konfrontasie met (WBC liggewig-kampioen) Jorge Linares.”

 

Cohen wil ook sy vennote gelukwens, GH3 Promotions President Vito Mielnicki, wie vegters Antoine Douglas, Jerry Odom en Adam Lopez wat indrukwekkende Klop Outs aangeteken in televisie aksie.

 

“GCP en GH3 albei het groot nagte. Ek is baie gelukkig my promosie vennoot Vito se vegters was die oorwinning behaal en hulle almal kyk sensasionele. Ek wil ook dankie sê Dawid Schuster se wenner neem al Productions vir hul geweldige werk in die maak van hierdie geleentheid so 'n sukses.
