FIGHTING OUT OF KRONK GYM, BANKS SEES SOUTHPAW OPPONENT SALAS AS NOTHING NEW

مه 7, 2016 FNU47 دیدگاهتان را بنویسید:

Given the number of world-class southpaws he’s been in with at the world-famous Kronk Gym in Detroit, undefeated Motown-based cruiserweight Demetrius Banks (6-0, 4 کوس) says he’s not at all concerned about facing Puerto Rican New Yorker Emilio Salas (5-1-1, 3 کوس).

The pair will meet on روز شنبه, مه 14, at the Masonic Temple in Downtown Detroit, in the six-round main event of Salita Promotions’ “Detroit Brawl,” واقعه. In the six-round co-main event Detroit’s undefeated bantamweight James Gordon Smith (9-0, 6 کوس) and Mexico’s Pablo Cupul (8-19, 5 کوس).

بلیط “Detroit Brawl” are on sale now and are priced at $28, $38, $63, $93, $100 و $123. They are available at all Ticketmaster outlets, ticketmaster.com, با تماس 800-745-3000, or by visiting the Masonic Temple box office.

“Because my experience, fighting a southpaw is not much of an adjustment,” said Banks during a break in training. “Being at Kronk, I’ve boxed world-class southpaws like (former WBO Middleweight Champion) Andy Lee and (current WBC Light Heavyweight Champion) Adonis Stevenson to name a few. It’s not a big deal for me. I fought so many southpaws, in the beginning of my career, it was more difficult to box a right hander.”

Banks, a former football star and a committed mentor to Detroit’s youth, says that despite it being his first main event, he’s not feeling any extra pressure. “جوری که بهش نگاه میکنم, این هم روز دیگری است. I don’t let the situation overwhelm me. I guess after the fight is over I’ll exhale and soak it all in. As of right now I’m ready to go to war. It doesn’t bother me what order we fight in.”

Of opponent Salas, Banks says he’s not expecting any surprises.

“من نکردم’ need to see much of him to know what I’m getting. I probably watched part of a round and he’s what I would expect. I saw things in him I can exploit. I also know he’s on a five-fight win streak. He’s 6′ 3″ بلند قد, out of the Bronx and he’s a southpaw. I guess he’s coming to win, but I can’t let this guy take food off my plate.”

Banks says he’s aware that at age 35, there is no time to waste and he is working hard at Kronk with head coach Javan Hill and assistant trainer Richard Phillips, knowing that this fight is critical if he is to ever rise to contender status.

“This fight presents a big opportunity for me, especially with Dmitriy doing so many big things in boxing. اگر در این مبارزه پیروز شوم, it gives me the opportunity to sign with him. I feel like I need to hurry. Because of my age, I have a smaller window of opportunity and I understand it. This is an opportunity for me to step it up and get things going.”

So how does he see things going against Salas?

“I definitely see a fight in my mind before it happens. I always visualize them beforehand. I see the things I don’t want to happen, the things that can’t happen and things I want to do. He’s going to come out and try to show he’s tough and come to fight and win. He’s not me though. He’s not fleet-footed or as slick as me. I’ll trick him and touch him to his body. That will give me a lot of target. I will break him down from the body up.

On the Detroit Brawl undercard, Lansing junior middleweight Antonio Urista (7-1, 2 کوس) will face Greenwood, Indiana’s Pablo Sanchez (7-1, 5 کوس) در یک جلسه چهار دور. بعلاوه, Russian cruiserweight Alexey Zubov (10-1, 6 کوس) will look to bounce back from his first career loss by taking on the capable Ernest Reyna (8-3, 4 کوس) از کورپس کریستی, وابسته به تکزاس, در شش دور میزند. And in four-round welterweight bout between undefeated fighters, Turkmenabat, Turkmenistan’s Serdar Hudayberdiyev (1-0, 1 ضربه فنی) will face Marco Russell (1-0-1) of Henderson, نوادا.

In a six-round super middleweight scrap, Detroit’s super middleweight James Ballard (6-0, 3 کوس) will face Chicago’s Edgar Perez (6-18, 3 کوس); Detroit middleweight Darrell Van Horn (8-0, 5 کوس) will go against Torreon, Mexico’s Francisco Reza (13-17, 10 کوس) در یک طفیلی چهار; East Pointe, میشیگان, cruiserweight Clarence Dubose (2-0, 2 کوس) will battle fellow Michigander Karinn Davis (2-6, 2 کوس) of Jackson in a four-round battle; and Brooklyn via Georgia super lightweight Giorgi Gelashvili (3-0, 2 کوس) will face Jackson, Michigan’s Alfred Hall (4-11-2, 2 کوس) در یک جلسه چهار دور.

Fighter/Promoter Salita Says Detroit Was the Obvious Choice for Upcoming Series of Professional Boxing Shows

ژانویه 20, 2016 FNU47 دیدگاهتان را بنویسید:

‘Detroit Brawl’ Begins روز شنبه, فوریه 6, at the Masonic Temple

“I strongly feel that Detroit has a lot of potential to become a hub for pro boxing. Not only with its own talented fighters, but also for boxers from around the country and around the globe. With consistency, competitive fights and talented boxers there’s a tremendous amount of potential for world-class boxing in the city of Detroit.” دیمیتری Salita

World-class boxer turned promoter Dmitriy Salita, of Salita Promotions, says the choice to base his new series of live fights in Detroit was an easy one to make. A city and state that has produced such all-time greats as Floyd Mayweather, Tommy Hearns and Joe Louis to name a few, as well as legendary trainers such Emanuel Steward and Eddie Futch is, according to Salita, the perfect place to launch a succession of top-notch boxing shows.

Appropriately entitled the “Detroit Brawl,” the series will kick off at the iconic Masonic Temple in Downtown Detroit on روز شنبه, فوریه 6 در 6:30 PM. Featured that night will be a diverse array of up-and-coming prospects and established contenders from Michigan and around the world including Detroit’s James Gordon Smith (8-0, 5 کوس), Ed Williams (10-1-1, 4 کوس), James Ballard (5-0, 2 کوس), and Antonio Wade (1-0, 1 ضربه فنی), as well as former world title challenger and currently world-ranked cruiserweight Junior Wright of Chicago (14-1-1, 11 کوس), undefeated Dominican Eudy Bernardo (20-0, 14 کوس), Brooklyn’s Dimash Niyazov (8-0-3, 4 کوس) and the professional debut of Turkmenistan’s former Asian Games Amateur Champion, سردار Hudayberdiyev.

بلیط “Detroit Brawl” در قیمت $28, $38, $48, $63, $93, و $123 و are available at all Ticketmaster outlets, ticketmaster.com, با تماس 800-745-3000, or by visiting the Masonic Temple box office. For event information visit themasonic.com و SalitaPromotions.com.

“Detroit is America’s great comeback city and boxing fans love a comeback,” سعید ورد, who once challenged for a world title and currently sports a 35-2-1, 18 KOs record as a fighter. “This city has some of the best homegrown boxers in the country and the world and we plan to highlight those talents throughout this series. I thought it was a natural to run consistent high-class show here. Detroit and the State of Michigan, as a whole, have a rich boxing culture: The boxing fans here will respond positively. And for the local up-and-comers, they will have a place close to home to build a fan base.”

Though he is Ukraine-born and Brooklyn-raised, Salita has a long history with the area, having trained here since early in his fighting career.

“I’ve been coming to Detroit for six years, to train at the Kronk Gym with Emanuel Steward and Sugar Hill, his nephew,” explained Salita. “I got a chance firsthand to see the Detroit boxing culture and witness its tremendous talent!”

33-year-old Salita started boxing at age 13 at Starret City Boxing Club in Brooklyn, نیویورک, and went on to become a highly decorated amateur boxer before his professional career. “At the time I started boxing, the Starrett City Boxing Club was run by Jimmy O’Pharrow. It was one of the best gyms in New York City. It produced some of the best fighters in the world today. We all came up together and had ‘fights of the year’ sparring sessions almost every night. The competitive nature of those sparring sessions are what made me so successful in boxing, and when I came here to the Kronk gym I witnessed that same atmosphere.”

Still an active fighter, after losing his challenge to world champion Amir Khan in 2009, Salita says he looked around at his options and decided that with his strong fan base, becoming a promoter was a natural progression. Salita says he’s proud of diversity and talent level he’s been able to provide for the inaugural show of the series.

“I like that this show has several of Detroit’s up-and-coming stars and boxers from different places around the world as well. Junior Wright is world-ranked and one of the best cruiserweights in the world. He’s looking to get back to another world title shot. اودی برناردو, an undefeated lightweight prospect from the Dominican Republic, is looking to rise to the top of the division. And the Detroit fighters are some of the best including James Ballard, Eddie Williams and James Gordon Smith, a former national champion in the amateurs. Antonio Wade is another hot prospect from the Detroit area. We’ve also got Asian games gold medalist Serdar Hudayberdiyev making his pro debut. He’s already the greatest fighter his country has ever produced. People are flying out from Turkmenistan to see the fight. I’m very excited about this show and for the future of boxing in this great city!”
