PARK CITY, Maio. (Febreiro 11, 2018) – U.S. Olympian and hometown favorite Nico Hernández captured the vacant International Boxing Association (IBA) Americas flyweight title in his fourth professional fight, headlining last night’s “KO Night Boxing” ouro & gloria” tarxeta, en Hartman Arena, en Park City, Kansas.
Presentado por “KO Night Boxing LLC,” the card was taped live to be shown at a later date on CBS Sports Network. “KO Night Boxing” ouro & gloria” tarxeta, presented by KO Night Boxing LLC,
A 22-year-old Hernández (4-0, 3 Kos) stopped last-minute replacement, xogo Víctor “O Touro” Torres, na quinta rolda.
Hernández’ orixinais adversario, Hungarian champion Joseph Ajtai (19-9, 12 Kos), never made it to Wichita due to a series of unfortunate circumstances. Ajtai lost one day in Frankfurt, Alemaña, after leaving his passport on the plane he took from Budapest. Once he landed in Chicago o mércores, he was tied up by a visa issue at U.S. Customs. He missed his connecting flight to Wichita and because of snowstorms that grounded numerous flights, including those to Wichita, Ajtai never made it out of O’Hare Airport, stranded there for several days.
The IBA granted a special exception for Hernandez to fight Torres, due to these unforeseen problems, with the agreement that Hernandez would next fight Ajtai for an IBA title.
“It was an electric night,” promotor John Andersen dito. “Unha vez máis, Nico made the proper adjustment that can be credited to his amateur pedigree. In the amateurs, opponents often change at the last moment and Nico has overcome many obstacles during his boxing career. We’re going to give Josef another title shot against Nico in April or May. They have unfinished business together!
“I was very pleased with Nico’s performance. It’s the best I’ve seen him. He was unbelievable in every way, on point throughout the fight. We also want to give Torres credit for accepting the fight on such late notice.”
Hernandez came out fast from the start, battering Torres’ body with tremendous combinations, and he never let up. Torres absorbed punishment but remained upright, but IBA referee Steve Smoger halted the action in the fifth round for Torres’ seguridade.
“I’m not leaving this belt,” Hernandez commented at the post fight press conference as he handled his IBA Americas belt. “It’s going everywhere with me. I was looking forward to this fight and I’m ready to continue my success. This is the first (title belt) of many. I got what I worked hard for. I want to thank my coaches, all the work paid off, and now I have this (title belt).”

KO Night Boxing signs “O Dragón” Popular Canadian junior welterweight Steve Claggett

Leave a comment

LAS VEGAS (Xaneiro 25, 2018) — KO Night Boxing LLC announced it has signed popular Canadian junior welterweight Steve “O Dragón” Claggett a un contrato de exclusividade promocional.

The Las Vegas-based company also has 2016 Olympic bronze medalist and undefeated Wichita flyweight, Nico Hernández (3-0), 2 Kos), among its growing stable of professional boxers.
Claggett, de 28 anos (26-4-1, 17 Kos), fighting out of Calgary, is a fan-favorite because of his aggressive, non-stop style. Since the ultra-aggressive Claggett moved back down one division to junior welterweight, Claggett is a perfect 3-0 (1 KO), incluíndo un par de decisións de 10 roldas gañadoras do título sobre opoñentes previamente invictos,Yves Ulysse, JR. (14-0) para a vaga Federación Internacional de Boxeo (IBF) Título superlixeiro norteamericano, así como Emmanuel Robles (15-0-1) para a vacante Asociación Mundial de Boxeo (WBA) Coroa superlixeira NABA USA.
“I’m excited to be signed by John Andersen and KO Night Boxing,” Claggett said. “There were no guarantees (without a promoter). I’ve always had the talent but never the structure. I’ll have that now, aínda. It was always difficult making fights with long layoffs, dates falling through, and offers on short notice. I’ve only been able to show a little of what I’m capable. All I’ve ever wanted is a fair shake and this opportunity will allow me to show what I can do. This year is going to be big for me and KO Night Boxing.
“I’m just approaching my prime. I’ve only been working with my trainer, Vlad Goldenstein, for a little more than a year, pero estou 3-0 with him and have won two belts. Eu son un loitador da vella escola, action-packed and who brings the pace. This is a great for me and my boxing career.”
“We’re taking a big step in the right direction by signing Steve,” Claggett’s new promoter Andersen commented. “Estou animado. Steve deserves this opportunity and we’re going to deliver for him.
“Steve is an action fighter, always coming forward, and he hasn’t been in a bad fight during the three years I’ve known him. He took a risk but really opened some eyes with his performance against Ulysse. What an accomplishment fighting an undefeated fighter in his backyard. He took a big risk and got a big win. And now he’s beaten the man (Ulysse) who has beaten the man (21-0 Cletus Seldin, WDEC10, Decembro. 16, 2017 na HBO). Steve’s undefeated on this run as a junior welterweight, beating two previously unbeaten opponents, and he deserves more recognition and a shot at a big fight.”
“Steve’s an animal in the squared circle and the farthest thing from it outside the ring,” Claggett’s manager Max Matheny engadido. “He has all the attributes of a champion. His boxing IQ and ability to adapt under pressure makes Claggett a serious challenge. He can beat anybody in the division on any given night. We’ve had a multitude of promotional offers to consider at the end of a strong 2017 and are very excited to align with KO Night Boxing. They are going to give us the opportunities to show the world how good ‘The Dragon’ really is. His signature is turning into an autograph in 2018, mark my words.”
The boxing irony is that Ulysse, not Claggett, is now world ranked. Considering the half-Chinese, half-European Claggett beat Ulysse in his Montreal hometown, Steve proved that he’ll fight anybody, en calquera lugar, unlike many fighters who make that claim but don’t back it up. “Me and my team aren’t afraid to fight anybody,” he spoke about his most significant fight to date. “Bring it on! I’m willing to fight in hostile territory against an A-side fighter. We don’t pick and choose. Too many fighters pad their records, but that only upsets fans, and delays fights. I’m looking for tough fights to judge how much I’ve grown. I’d love to fight the top guys.
“My fight with Ulysse was my biggest but not best fight. I thought I boxed a little robotic and fell back into some old habits. I’d give myself a B- for that fight. I got the win and put on a great show that was fast paced. Ulysse and Robles box, run and move. I’d like an opponent who comes to me, stays in the pocket, and fights. I know it’ll be a helluva fight.”
Maybe Claggett’s next fight will be on a higher platform, quizais, against a legitimate fighter’s fighter like Steve.

PARK CITY, KANSAS (Outubro 23, 2017) – 2016 Medalla de bronce olímpico Nico Hernández will be fighting for his first professional title on Sábado, Decembro 2, when he takes on Hungarian invaderJózsef “Little Red” Ajtai in the eight-round main event for the vacant International Boxing Association (IBA) Flyweight Championship, headlining “KO Night Boxing: ouro & gloria” en Hartman Arena, en Park City, Kansas.

“KO Night Boxing: ouro & gloria” é unha presentación de KO Night Boxing LLC., en asociación con Hartman Arena, e patrocinado en parte pola Twister Cidade Harley-Davidson metro PCS, Mort’s Cigar Bar e Jimmy Egg.

A acción será gravado en directo para o futuro exhibición na CBS Sports Network.
The 21-year-old Hernandez (3-0, 2 Kos), loitando fóra de Wichita, will be fighting in a scheduled eight-round bout for the first time. His three pro fights to date were all scheduled for six rounds and each was held in Kansas, the last two in his second home, Hartman Arena.
In his last fight this past September 23rd, Hernandez was forced to fight late replacement Kendrick “Uprising” Latchman who outweighed the celebrated American Olympian by more than 10 libras. Hernandez won a six-round unanimous decision by scores of 60-54 e 59-55 dúas veces.
Despite being younger than Hernandez by almost a year to the day, Ajtai (19-9, 12 Kos) has already had 28 loitas profesionais, including a full 10-round distance loss by decision last year to two-time Olympic gold medalist Shiming Zou, o ex Organización Mundial de Boxeo (WBO) campión mundial peso mosca.
“By far, Nico is fighting the toughest opponent of his pro career,” Hernández’ promotor John Andersen (“KO Night Boxing LLC) dito. “Ajtai has much more experience as a pro than Nico, plus he went the distance against a two-time Olympic gold medalist, Zou. Ajtai is a busy fighter with a good knockout ratio (63%). This fight is going to tell us a lot about Nico, especially his power at 112 libras.
“Nico fighting for a title in only his fourth pro fight proves that all our hard efforts of KO Night Boxing and Team Nico has paid off quickly and we’re grateful that the IBA has given him this great opportunity. I didn’t realize the high quality of champions the IBA has had in the past and we’re proud that Nico can someday join this group. In the flyweight division, Nico may enter world title fight shot discussions earlier than I had originally thought, which was in his third year as a pro. An impressive performance against Ajtai could position him for a world title fight next year with less than 10 fights under his belt.”
“We’re excited to have an American Olympian fighting for our first Americas title,” IBA PresidentJ.C. Courreges engadido. “Nico Hernandez is an Olympic bronze medalist and we’re hopeful that he will develop into an IBA world champion in the not too distant future. His amateur pedigree speaks for itself and we’re very happy to have this young man fighting for the IBA Americas title.”
IBA world champions during the past quarter-century include Hall-of-Famers Oscar de la Hoya,George Foreman, Roberto Duran e Arturo Gatti, as well as stars such as Roy Jones, Jr,Bernard Hopkins, Shane Mosely, James Toney, Michael Kessler, Eric Morales, Diego Currais, Jose Luis Castillo, Glen Johnson e Antonio Tarver.

“This is a great opportunity for ‘KO Night Boxing, LLC’ to expand our brand to another state,” promoter John Andersen said. “We’re very happy to be coming to WinnaVegas and working with Mayan Beltran and his team. We’re kicking this new relationship off in a big way with these two regional title fights on CBS Sports Network.

I am looking forward to working with promoters KO Night Boxing LLC, Neon Star SE, Roc Nation Sports and, como sempre, Ringside Ticket Inc., to deliver this exciting night of entertainment.”
Roc Nation Sports’ Hooker (22-0-3, 16 Kos) will defend his North American Boxing Organization (Veciños) junior welterweight against title challenger Abdiel “Morteiro” Ramirez (23-1-1, 21 Kos) no evento de 10 rolda principal.
Fighting out of Dallas, Hooker is world rated at No. 2 pola Organización Mundial de Boxeo (WBO), e n. 4 pola Federación Internacional de Boxeo (IBF). The 27-year-old Hooker was a decorated amateur boxer in Texas, finishing with a 97-7 (67 Kos) rexistro, who turned pro in 2011.
Hooker first captured the vacant NABO title in 2015, at home in Dallas, with a six-round technical knockout of previously unbeaten Eduardo Galindo (10-0-1). Desde, Hooker has made three successful title defenses against Ghislain Maduma (17-1) at the famed Madison Square Garden on Nov. 17, 2015, Ty Barnett (23-5-1) at Oracle Arena on August 6, 2016; and in a 10-round draw with former World Boxing Association (WBA) Campión do mundo Darleys Perez (33-2-1) on undercard of Sergey Kovalev vs. Andre Ward “Pound-For-Pound” on Mov. 19 en Las Vegas.
In his most recent fight on Febreiro. 25 en México, Hooker cruised to a dominant 10-round decision victory over former IBF World Champion Cristobal Cruz (41-20-4).
Ramirez, 25, is a former FECOMBOX Lightweight Champion, fighting out of Ciudad Juarez, México. Ramirez, who is riding a nine-fight win streak, will be fighting outside of his native Mexico for the first time against Hooker.
The 10-round co-feature for the vacant United States Boxing Association (Axuste) featherweight crown has been in the works for a while and it could very well steal the show as former USBA champion Daniel “Twitch” Franco asume Jose Haro.
O Franco, de 25 anos (15-1-3, 10 Kos), fighting out of Rancho Cucamonga, California, started boxing at the age of eight, acumulando unha marca afeccionado de 67-15, highlighted by gold-medal performances at the 2006 Oxnard PAL Championships and 2017 California State Silver Gloves Championships.

Franco was stopped in his last fight by veteran Christopher Martin (29-8-3) Na terceira rolda da súa loita sen título en Los Ángeles Marzo 23. Franco está actualmente clasificado como non. 5 pola USBA e non. 11 polo nabo.
Usab. 14-rated Haro (13-1-1, 7 Kos), who is a well-kept secret outside of West Jordan, Utah, is an all-action fighter. The 29-year-old has won his last five fights, unbeaten in in his last six with a draw, since suffering his only loss to highly-touted prospect Toka Kahn Clary (11-0) a través dunha decisión de seis roldas en 2014.
