The World Boxing Organization (WBO), chaired by Francisco “Paco” Valcárcel, will celebrate five interesting title fights; two of which are for world championships. The bouts will take place this Saturday, Maj 12.

 

 

 

Brooklyn native Saddam “World Kid” Ali (26-1, 14 KO s), coming off the most important victory of his career against legendary Puerto Rican boxer Miguel Cotto, makes the first defense of his WBO junior middleweight world title, when he faces the dangerous Mexican Jaime Munguía (28-0, 24 KO s). The fight will take place at the Turning Stone Resort & Casino in Verona, New York. The fight will be televised live on HBO at 10:00 p.m. OG.

 

 

 

We will have a lot of activity this Saturday from the WBO. You have to pay close attention to the performance of the huge puncher Jaime Munguía, who will face a good attacker like Ali. It’s going to be a classic fight of puncher against a boxer. If Munguía wins, he would be placed on a select list of great Mexican boxers who have been world champions at or before 21 years of age”, said Valcárcel.

 

 

 

In Augsburg, Tyskland, women’s boxing takes the stage when the popular former world champion Nikki Adler (16-1, 9 KO s) of Germany and the world contender Femke Hermans (6-1, 3 KO s) of Belgium, face each other for the vacant WBO world belt of the super middleweight division. The fight will be in the Eisstadion in Augsburg.

 

 

 

We remain committed and supportive of women’s boxing. Germany is no exception. This great fight has the community looking on because there is a world title at stake and the fight will be liked by the public”, said Valcárcel.

 

In Latvia, three WBO International titles will be in play in 12-round duels in an evening at the Riga Arena. For the vacant International junior middleweight belt, the 13th ranked Ismail Iliev (10-0-1, 3 KO s) of Nazran, Russia will face Konstantin Ponomarev (33-0, 13 KO s) of Miass, Rusland.

 

 

 

Også, the WBO International Lightweight Champion and 5th ranked Isa Chaniev (12-1, 6 KO s) of Nazran, Rusland, will defend his title against the strong Venezuelan puncher, Ismael Barroso (20-1-2, 19 KO s).

 

 

 

For the vacant middleweight WBO International belt, Artur Akavov (18-2, 12 KO s) from Russia, will face against Argentina’s Gonzalo Coria (12-1, 5 KO s).

 

 

 

We are making a presence in eastern Europe. Denne gang, it was Latvia’s turn to have boxers who are already ranked in the top positions of the WBO and for the rest of the year, could be fighting for world titles”, expressed Varcárcel.

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

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

Despite taking the fight on three days’ meddelelse, 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. Desværre, the European judges saw it another way, scoring it 114-112 (Jean Legland, FRA), 115-112 (Dave Parris, UK) og 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’ meddelelse, 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 af ​​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 på lørdag,” sagde 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 Juni 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,” fortsat 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!”

Barroso (17-0-2, 16 KOS), El Tigre, Venezuela, fik sin amerikanske tv-debut og hentede Nabo og NABA Letvægts mesterskaber med en imponerende TKO i gutty New Yorker Issouf Kinda (17-3, 7 KOS).

 

Efter fem runder af absorbere Barrosos magt, herunder en femte runde én punch knockdown, Kinda udviklede problemer med sin vision og kampen blev stoppet blot tre sekunder til den sjette runde. Barrosos øjenåbnende sejr, dog, var ikke uden en pris, da han har lidt grimme nedskæringer over hans højre øje og under hans venstre øje fra utilsigtede heabutts.

 

“Barroso har magt som (tidligere mellemvægt mester) Julian Jackson. Han slår fyre og de går,” sagde en glad Cohen, post-kamp. “Folk vil gerne se krigere som dette. Steve Farhood fra Showtime sagde Ismael er "en af ​​boksning bedst bevarede hemmeligheder.’ Hemmeligheden er nu ude. Min fyr er et dyr!”

 

Den brutale sejr over Kinda vil helt sikkert gendanne Barroso til de høje højder i verden ratings han engang nød. Han var tidligere vurderet #5 i verden, før visum problemer gået i stå sin karriere. Men tilbage på sporet nu og arbejder med GCP, himlen synes at være grænsen for denne Sydamerikansk med granit næver.

 

“Vi ønsker en rangeret fighter næste,” fortsat Cohen, “med det mål at blive en VM kamp og en eventuel all-Venezuela opgør med (WBC Letvægts Champion) Jorge Linares.”

 

Cohen ønsker også at lykønske hans partnere, GH3 Kampagner præsident Vito Mielnicki, hvis krigere Antoine Douglas, Jerry Odom og Adam Lopez, der indspillede imponerende Knock Outs i tv-aktion.
