Rising Star Julian Williams Aims to Remain Undefeated

Lørdag, Juni 13 at Bartow Arena in Birmingham, Ala.

 

NEW YORK (Juni 5, 2015) – With a shot at a lightweight world title on the line, ubeseirede verdens rangert utfordrere John “Den grusomme” REDK og Dejan “The Dynamite” Zlaticanin vil stille opp i en 12-runde eliminator Lørdag, Juni 13, i hovedturneringen av SHOWTIME BOKSING på SHO EXTREME® (7 pm. OG/PT, forsinket på vestkysten) ved Bartow Arena i Birmingham, Ala.

 

I co-feature, ubeseiret topp 10-rangerte super weltervekt Julian “J Rock” Williams (19-0-1, 11 PRISER, 1 ND), av Philadelphia, vil bli motarbeidet av Armenias Dårlig Ovsepyan (14-4, 11 KOs), av Glendale, Calif., in a ten-round bout. Time permitting, hardtslående lette tungvektere Ahmed Elbiali (10-0, 9 KOs, 1-1 WSB), Miami, Fla, og Mottak Woods (8-4, 7 KOs), av Atlanta, will collide in a swing match.

 

Senere den kvelden, i SHOWTIME Championship Boxing®main event, undefeated WBC Heavyweight World Champion Deontay “Bronse Bomber” Wilder (33-0, 32 KOs), av Tuscaloosa, Ala., will make the first defense of his title when he faces Eric “Drummer Boy” Molina (23-2, 17 KOs), av Raymondville, Texas, leve på SHOWTIME® (9 pm. OG/6 pm. PT).

 

Vinneren mellom Redkach (18-0, 1 ND, 14 KOs), av Los Angeles, og Zlaticanin (16-0, 9 KOs), Montenegro, blir obligatorisk utfordreren til Jorge Linares, the WBC 135-pound world champion who registered a 10th-round TKO over then-No. 1 kandidat Kevin Mitchell mai 30. Zlaticanin and Redkach are the second- and third-rated contenders by the WBC at 135 pounds.

 

Redkach and Zlaticanin are talented southpaws who were both accomplished amateurs in Eastern Europe. REDK, en 2008 Olympic Games alternate for his native Ukraine, is known for his aggressive and relentless style. The 29-year-old is coming off a sixth-round knockout over Yakubu Amidu siste Jan. 9 på ShoBox: Den nye generasjonen and has been angling for a title shot in 2015.

 

“This is the most important fight of my life,” said Redkach, who made ESPN.com’s “Topp 20 Prospects to Watch” lists in 2012 og 2013. “I’ve never trained longer or harder for a fight. Min trener, Robert Garcia, has me totally prepared and in great shape.

 

“It’s going to be a good action fight. I’ve watched tapes of [Zlaticanin’s] last two fights so I feel I’m familiar with him. He’s very strong and he throws a lot of punches. I thank him [Zlaticanin] for coming to the United States. I’m honored. But this is a good matchup for me. I want to thank my team for giving me this opportunity. This is another step closer to my dream, the world title. I’m confident in myself. I’m going to put on a great show.”

 

Dejan (uttales “DAY-han) Zlaticanin (silent “med” – uttales “la-ti-CAH-nin) is making his U.S. og 2015 debut. Zlaticanin’s most significant victory of his career came two outings ago when, as a prohibitive underdog, he earned a well-deserved 12-round split decision over hometown favorite Ricky Burns, a former two-division world champion.

 

The 31-year-old Zlaticanin, who moved training camps to the U.S. for his stateside debut, is an offensive-minded fighter who constantly pressures his opponents, outworks them and wears them down. Zlaticanin, of the Southeastern European country of Montenegro, represents the toughest opponent of Redkach’s career, though he’ll be giving away four inches in height to his opponent.

 

“I think I will knock Ivan Redkach out,” Zlaticanin said. “I don’t like his behavior. Now that I’m training in America, I think I will be stronger and better than I was before.”

 

The fast-rising Williams, 25, is making his sixth appearance on SHO EXTREME, more than any other boxer. Ranked in the top ten by multiple sanctioning bodies, the undefeated 154-pounder has won six consecutive fights, four by knockout since a bout with still-unbeaten Hugo Centeno Jr., ended in a fourth-round No Decision in September 2013. Williams was up, 3-0 i runder scoret, when the fight was halted due to an unintentional clash of heads. In his last start he scored one knockdown en route to a shutout 10-round decision over veteran Joey Hernandez på April 4.

 

“I’ve seen some tape on my opponent,” Williams sa. “He seems to be a really good, solid fighter. I’m expecting a tough fight, and I’m prepared. Jeg er klar.”

 

The 29-year-old Ovsepyan trains out of the Wild Card Boxing Club in Los Angeles and has campaigned for most of his career in California or Russia. The aggressive-minded Ovsepyan has had difficulty getting fights in the past and this will be his first ring assignment in 13 måneder.

 

“I’ve been training for a whole year now,” han sa. “They kept telling me that I could get a fight at any minute. I was supposed to have a fight in December, but it was canceled.

 

“I’ve seen Williams fight a couple of times, but it doesn’t matter to me. I don’t even want to know anything about my opponent. I just want to get back in the ring and get a win. I’m hungry and he better not be taking me lightly.”

 

I SHOWTIME Championship Boxing co-feature, ubeseiret Jose “The Sniper” Pedraza(19-0, 12 KOs), av Cidra, Puerto Rico, vil ta på Andrey Klimov (19-1, 9 KOs), av Klimovski, Russland, i en 12-rounder for den ledige IBF Junior Lett VM.

 

Brian Custer will host the SHOWTIME EXTREME telecast with Barry Tompkins calling the blow-by-blow at ringside alongside expert analyst Steve Farhood.

GCP er "Lightning’ Luis Off to Sensasjonell start i 2015

Legg igjen en kommentar

“Jeg visste ikke at oddsen var 7-1 mot meg, eller jeg ville ha satset på meg selv!” lo kanadiske lette Tony “Lyn” Luis (19-2, 7 KOs).

I den første boksing opprørt av det nye året, Luis plukket opp WBC Continental Amerika Weight Championship og ødela den ubeseirede rekord på IBF #15 karakter Karl “Dynamitt” Dargan (17-1, 9 KOs), sist fredag ​​kveld på Foxwoods Resort Casino i Mashantucket, Connecticut, ved hjelp av en 10-runde enstemmig avgjørelse. Luis klart dominert Dargan og droppet ham i runder tre (dommeren feilaktig hersket det en slip) og 10 til hetten av en svært imponerende ytelse.

Karrieren skiftende seier er den siste i en varm strek for den 27 år gamle Luis, fra Cornwall, Ontario. Dargan var den andre “0” på rad at Luis har tatt, som han ga New Jerseys Wanzell Ellison sitt første tap i juli i fjor, så vel. Det ville være hans tredje på rad hvis ikke for noen tvilsom scoring mot Ukrainas Ivan Redkach sist januar. De kombinerte registreringer av Luis siste tre motstandere var 43-0-1, 27 KOs.

“Ord kan ikke engang beskrive hva jeg føler akkurat nå,” fortsatte Luis. “Det har ikke engang sunket inn ennå. Det virket som det tok så lang tid å komme dit, med alle oppturer og nedturer i treningsleir, men nå som det er over, det føles som om det skjedde for fort.”

Luis sier at mens det kan ha sett ut til å være en enkel seier for ham (score var 97-92, 99-90, og 97-92), utseende bedrar. “Jeg trodde ikke det skulle se så lett som det gjorde. Det var ikke lett på noen måte, Jeg måtte jobbe hardt i det å få vinne, men ser det, det ser ut som jeg hadde en lett tid. Jeg er bare takknemlig for min promoter, Greg Cohen, for muligheten og for rettferdig bedømming og tjenestegjør vi fikk denne gangen.”

2015 starter ut smashingly for Luis. Ikke bare vil han nå himmelen rakett gjennom verdensrankingen som en streaking kandidat (Han er for tiden #13 i WBA), han og forloveden Manon Latulippe venter sitt første barn noen dager nå.

“Året starter med et smell. Jeg kunne ikke vært lykkeligere. Jeg kommer til å nyte min baby og deretter, snart han er født, Jeg kommer straks tilbake i gymsalen.”

Arrangøren Greg Cohen sier han er spent på fremtiden for sin kanadiske slugger.

“Tony jobber veldig hardt i gym og har alt hjertet du kan be om, og det viser i sine kamper. Han outworks hans motstandere og overvelder dem med sin nådeløshet aggresjon. Dette er hans andre år på rad seier over et godt ansett, ubeseiret fighter, og bør faktisk være hans tredje. Jeg er stolt over å få jobbe med en så fremragende fighter og hans team. Tony er klar til å kjempe om verdensmestertittelen, og vi skal gjøre alt vi kan for å levere ham en tittel kamp eller tittel eliminator.”

En rusmisbruk rådgiveren hjem, Luis sier resepsjonen i Cornwall har vært enorm. “Alle. Min familie, alle mine venner og så mange fans fra hjem er ekstatisk. Jeg er overveldet av støtten jeg får. Det er en ære.”

CABAZON, Calif. (Jan. 9, 2015) – Undefeated prospect John Redkach (18-0, 14 KOs) was impressive in a sixth-round knockout victory over Yakubu Amidu (19-6-2, 17 KOs), who failed to get off his stool following the sixth round in Fredagens main event of ShoBox: Den nye generasjonen fra Morongo Casino, Resort & Spa i Cabazon, Calif.

 

Working for the first time with new trainer Robert Garcia, REDK, of Los Angeles by way of Ukraine, started out slow as he found his range, with the durable Amidu handling his power in the opening rounds. Amid, of Los Angeles by way of Ghana, started slow but picked up the pace in the fourth and then was docked a point by referee Ray Corona for repeated low blows in the fifth.

 

Amid, who had never been knocked down in 26 profesjonelle kamper, suffered two knockdowns in the sixth, with the first coming after a quick right followed by a hard left and the second after an onslaught of power punches. Amidu barely beat the count both times, but he simply couldn’t handle the power of Redkach, som landet 45 prosent av hans makt slag.

 

“I was getting ready to knock him out,” Redkach said. “I was going to finish him before his corner stopped the fight. I would have finished him in the next round.

 

“I hadn’t been in the ring for sixth months, so I had to feel him out in the beginning before we attacked,” said Redkach. “That was the game plan with Robert Garcia. I was in perfect physical condition. I will be a world champion very soon. That is my dream.”

 

Amidu complained that a leg injury was the reason he quit on his stool.

 

“I hurt my knee in the last round when I fell on it,” Amidu said. “I was OK after the knockdown, but when I stood up I felt something in my knee. I didn’t stop fighting because of the punches; I stopped because I hurt my knee.”

 

While Amidu complained of a hurt knee after the fight, the California State Athletic Commission stated that the bout was stopped due to punches. By rule, the commission rules that a knockout.

 

SHOWTIME Analyst Steve Farhood was impressed by Redkach, who has been labeled by many boxing pundits as a hot prospect to watch.

 

“It was a very impressive victory because Amidu had never been down and had fought much better opposition,"Farhood sa. “It’s not that Redkach beat him, it’s the way he beat him. When Redkach debuted on ShoBox we billed him as a lightweight terror and he didn’t really fight that way. But tonight he fought smart and in the sixth round the terror came out. He showed he had legitimate power.”

 

I co-feature, undefeated junior middleweight prospect Alantez “SlyAza” Fox, av Forestville, MD, kept his undefeated record intact with an eight-round majority decision victory over previously unbeaten Patrick Day, scoret 76-76, 78-74, 80-72.

 

Fox (14-0-1, 4 KOs), who is 6-foot-5, was able to keep Day at distance with his highly effective jab, averaging 54 jabs a round with a total of 436 jabs thrown in just eight rounds. Dag (9-1, 5 KOs), who went past six rounds for the first time in his career, wasn’t able to come forward and looked frustrated in later rounds as he entered unchartered territory.

 

“I was able to land my jab,” said the 22-year-old Fox. “I kept moving and was able to stay off the ropes. I kept him on the outside with my jabs and movement. That definitely was the advantage that I had over him in the fight. It wasn’t just my height that worked; it was my movement and range.

 

“I was anxious before the fight, but once I was in the ring I settled down,” said Fox, who was making his SHOWTIME debut. “I’m very thankful for the opportunity and am very excited for big things to come.”

 

Day seemed frustrated with the decision saying, “I think I did enough to win. I think that I landed the better, harder, cleaner, more effective punches. I thought that’s how professional boxing is scored, but I guess not tonight. His height wasn’t a huge issue because I still think I won, but it was definitely an obstacle.”

 

I ShoBox: Den nye generasjonen opening bout, 2012 Olympian Ievgen “Ukrainian Lion” Khytrov (8-0, 8 KOs) remained undefeated with a dominating third-round technical knockout victory over outmatched Maurice “The Natural” Louishomme (8-1-1, 4 KOs).

 

Khytrov, av Brooklyn, N.Y., gjennom Ukraina, controlled the fight from the outset, lighting up Louishomme, av Colorado Springs, Colo., with aggressive right hands and uppercuts to the body that sent Louishomme staggering on multiple occasions in a fight that was entirely one-sided.

 

Khytrov was highly accurate, landing 53 prosent av hans makt slag, 51 percent of his jabs and 52 prosent av sine totale slag. Referee Ray Corona stopped the fight just 24 seconds into the third round after a hard right from Khytrov sent Louishomme’s mouthpiece flying for the third time and awarded Khytrov the technical knockout.

 

“I was just concentrating and trying to get some work in,” Khytrov said. “I wasn’t in there just looking for the knockout. I was looking for chances, but I wasn’t going to force it. The plan was to get some rounds in and really start pushing in the fourth.

 

“I’m ready to take on anyone. It’s been hard to get fights, but we’re just going to go home and prepare for the next one.”
