HARTFORD, Conn. (Juin 7, 2018) – Hartford boxing prospect “L'unique “Sharad Collier has overcome tougher obstacles in life than he may ever face in the ring.

 

 

 

The two-time New England Golden Gloves champion will make his professional debut Saturday night, Juin 16, on Hartford Boxing Promotions’ événement inaugural, “Nuit de combat à la capitale”, au Xfinity Center à Hartford.

 

 

 

“I’m excited to make my pro debut at home in Hartford,” Collier said. “Fans are going to see a whole new beast: plus de pouvoir, speed and I’m not just in the ring to fight. I’m going to put on a show. Here’s what ‘Special’ stands for: S is for speed, P for power, E for enthusiasm, C for charisma, I for intelligence, A for – athlétisme, L is for the looks.”

 

 

 

Fédération universelle de boxe (UBF) Championne des poids mi-lourds de toute l'Amérique Richard “Popeye le marin” Rivera (7-0, 6 KOs) will defend his title and fight Mexican challenger Jaime “Zarco” Solorio (12-3-2, 9 KOs) en cas de huit tour. They will also fight for the vacant ABF Continental Americas Championship.

 

 

The 21-year-Collier, who will fight Ohio’s Image de balise Antonio Castillo, Jr. (1-0) in a four-round Special Welterweight Attraction, has dedicated his boxing career to his uncle and father. His uncle was murdered three years outside of a venue in which Sharad was boxing and, sadly, his father has been in and out of prison. Collier grew up in toughest part of (south) Hartford, spent time in a detention center and, at times, lived in and out of foster homes.

 

 

 

“I’ve been through a lot in life,” the charismatic Collier admitted. “I’ve had to fight my whole life. My goals include becoming world champion, making good money, and buying a house. I have two kids and I want them to have a better life than I did. I love boxing and it’s my way out.”

 

 

 

Undefeated Danbury, CT légère Omar “La Bête” Bordoy, Jr. (5-0, 1 KO) will fight in his first scheduled six-round bout versus. Alexander “El Bravo” picot (2-5-1), combats hors de Hartford via Porto Rico.

POUR DIFFUSION IMMÉDIATE

PHILADELPHIA–Ce passé Vendredi nuit, Christopher Brooker won a workmanlike eight-round unanimous decision over veteran Oscar Riojas in a super middleweight bout that highlighted a seven bout card at a jam packed Casino SugarHouse.

La carte a été promu par Promotions roi.

Brooker was very solid throughout as he tried to work on in the inside. Dans la troisième manche, he landed a perfect left hook that drove Riojas into the ropes. Brooker worked inside and was the busier man throughout the contest.

Brooker of Philadelphia won by scores of 78-74 sur toutes les cartes et est maintenant 12-3. Riojas of Monterrey, Le Mexique est 14-8-1.

Jérôme Conquest put in a solid six-rounds in winning a unanimous decision over Daniel Perales in a super lightweight bout.

Conquest of Philadelphia won by scores of 60-54 et 59-55 deux fois, et est maintenant 7-2. Perales of Monterrey, Le Mexique est 10-10-1.

Henry Beckford scored an upset as he took a four-round majority decision over previously undefeated Blake Mansfield in a super middleweight contest.

Beckford of Coram, New York won by scores of 58-56 deux fois et 57-57, et est maintenant 5-6. Mansfield of Burlington, NC is now 5-1-1.

Sam Orapeza literally had to hang on and win a four-round unanimous decision in a cruiserweight bout over Kyle McNutt.

Orapeza dropped McNutt with a perfect straight left in round one, and it looked like it was going to be Orapeza’s 2nd consecutive first round knockout. McNutt gathered himself and had a solid round two. Orapeza took control again in round four, as he scored a hard knockdown and seemed seconds away from finishing the fight. He may have punched himself out as in the last 45 seconds of the bout, McNutt battered and staggered Oarapeza all over the ring. Had the bout been 30 seconds longer, the outcome could very well have been different, but Orapeza of Philadelphia got the nod by the tune of 38-37, 39-35 et 39-36. Orapeza is now 2-0. McNutt of Battle Creek, MI est 1-3.

Jeffrey Torres won a four-round unanimous decision over Kashon Hutchinson in a lightweight bout.

Les scores étaient 40-36 et 39-37 twice for Torres of Philadelphia, qui est maintenant 3-0. Hutchinson of Reading, PA est 2-3.

Harold Lopez et Basyzbek Baratov fought to an exciting majority draw in a flyweight bout.

Towards the end of round three, Lopez landed a left to the body that sent Baratov to the canvas.

Lopez of Bethlehem, PA took a card 39-38 and two other scorecards read even at 38-38.

Lopez is 1-0-1. Baratov is 2-1-2.

Chaise Nelson won a four-round unanimous decision over Bryan Perez Nevarez in a featherweight bout.

À la fin du deuxième tour, Nevarez dropped Nelson with a counter right hook.

Nelson of Dayton, Ohio won by scores of 39-37 et 38-37 twice and is now 5-1. Nevarez of Carolina, Porto Rico est 2-6-1.

CONFÉRENCE DE PRESSE, TUESDAY MAY 9TH AT 5 PM AT THE SUGARHOUSE CASINO
POUR DIFFUSION IMMÉDIATE

Philadelphie, Pennsylvanie. (Mai 4, 2017) – Christopher Brooker (11-3, 5 KO)va prendre Oscar Riojas (14-7-1, 4 KO) sur Vendredi, May 12th à la cabane à sucre Casino.

The scheduled eight-round super middleweight bout will headline a card promoted by King’s Promotions.

Brooker was summoned to San Diego to help Canelo Alavrez prepare for Samedi mega showdown with Julio Cesar Chavez, Jr that will take place in Las Vegas.
Being that Brooker is a strong super middleweight, and Chavez having a similar build, it made sense that Brooker would get such a call to help out the Mexican Idol for the much anticipated showdown.
“I went to camp with Canelo in San Diego, and we ran in the mountains at 15,000 pieds. I was there close to two weeks and sparred twenty rounds with him,” said Brooker.
“It was a great experience to be around a fighter who is one of the elite fighters in the world. He is so composed. I was brought into to pressure him and mimic Chavez, Jr. Canelo is such an experienced fighter, and I learned so much from him. He was showing me how to set up my shots, and even certain exercises with my neck.”
Brooker was very impressed with the whole team, and believes that this camp will take him to the next level.
“His team is so professional and down to earth. I am looking forward to this fight Samedi. Ce sera un bon combat. I was shocked to know that Canelo watched my last fight on ShoBox. They could tell that I was trying to box more and get a way from my brawling style that I had employed in most of my bouts. They gave me good advice, and told me not to change who I was when I was having a lot of success as a pressure fighter, and then to mix in the boxing aspect to my game.”
“I needed this. This will take my to another level.”
Also in a six-round bout:
Blake Mansfield (5-0-1, 2 KO) de Burlington, NC se battra Henry Beckford (4-6, 1 KO) of Coram, NY in a super middleweight bout.
Dans les combats de quatre rondes:
Chaise Nelson (4-1, 3 KO) of Dayton, Ohio will take on aBryan Perez Nevarez (2-5-1, 1 KO) de la Caroline, Puerto Rico in a featherweight bout.
