WORCESTER, Mass. (Januarie 8, 2018) – Een van die gewildste New England boks vooruitsigte, onoorwonne Hartford (CT) lig swaargewig Richard “Popeye Die Matroos Man” Rivera (5-0, 4 Uitklophoue), wil kop sy derde show Saterdag nag, Februarie 10, by Die Palladium in Worcester, Massachusetts.
In die vyfde paaiement van die “New England se toekoms” reeks, aangebied deur Rivera Promotions Vermaak (RPE), die 27-jarige Rivera ontmoet Kevin “kray 2 UNKL” Cobbs (10-2, 4 Uitklophoue), veg uit Burlington (VT), vir die vakante Universal Boksfederasie (UBF) New England titel in die agt-ronde hoofren.
Rivera, wat 'n 2016 Rocky Marciano Toernooi kampioen, kom uit 'n sensasionele tweede ronde knockout van 146-stryd veteraan Roberto Valenzuela die afgelope Desember 9 in Hampton, New Hampshire.
“Ek is opgewonde om Richie boks vir die UBF New England titel so vroeg in sy beroepsloopbaan het,”” gesê promotor Jose Antonio Rivera, die afgetrede 3-time, 2-afdeling wêreldkampioen. “Dit is die derde keer dat ons het die voorreg gehad om hom te veg op een van ons kaarte het. Hy het geveg in die hoofren van ons laaste show (Oktober) by die DCU Center. Rivera lyk beter en skerper elke keer as ek kyk hom geveg. Ek sien groot dinge kom vir hom. Hy het die gereedskap en dissipline 'n afrigter lyk vir en 'n bokser moet wêreldkampioen geword. Die lug is die limiet vir Richard en, vir nou, Ons is dankbaar vir 'n klein rol speel om te help sy professionele loopbaan te ontwikkel.”
Rivera het suksesvol bemark sy Popeye persona tydens sy jong pro boks loopbaan, dra cap 'n matroos se toetrede tot die ring met 'n tradisionele Popeye-agtige pyp hangend in sy mond. “Daar is verskeie redes vir my bynaam, 'Popeye', maar toe ek nog baie jonk was,” Rivera verduidelik, “Ek het abnormaal groot voorarms. Dit net vas met my deur die jare, wanneer mense in die gym vir my verwys, so ek het uit te voer met dit. Ek bring lewe terug na Hartford met geduld, regoor New England, met geduld, volharding en styl. Ek woon in die oomblik.”
Hoewel hy nie baie groot toekennings of toernooie gewen het as 'n amateur-bokser, Rivera het waardevolle ondervinding boks baie van die beste amateurs in New England en in nasionale gebeure, sowel as sparring met die hou van die voormalige wêreldkampioen Peter “Kid Chocolate” Quillin, Chad Dawson en Joe Smith, Jr. Hy het ook geleer van tyd spandeer in die ring met die voormalige titel uitdagers Israel “eerder” Cardona en John Scully.
“Ek het my tyd draai pro want ek het nie 'n ondersteuning stelsel vir my te kry na die volgende vlak,” Rivera opgemerk. “Ek was onseker. Die positiewe terugvoer wat ek ontvang het van vegters ek sparred gevoer in my vertroue. Nou, in net my sesde pro stryd, Ek sal die hemel van die derde keer, en veg vir my eerste titel. Ek kan nie bedank die Riveras (Jose en sy seun, A.J.) genoeg vir wat hulle gedoen het vir my. Hulle het geglo in my.”
Op die eerste, Rivera was ietwat huiwerig om die meer ervare Cobb veg, maar, na bietjie navorsing te doen, Hy aanvaar die uitdaging. “Ek was 'n bietjie senuweeagtig op die eerste,” hy erken. “Sommige is bevraagteken as ek gereed om te stap tot by hom te veg was. Ek het 'n bietjie navorsing: Hy het nie 'n groter amateur loopbaan, of geveg meer ses of agt rondes gevegte as my. En ek was die sparring partner vir die eerste pro om hom te klop, Tyron Burris(TKO2 in 2012). Ek is gereed! Ek is 27 en het 'n stryd soos hierdie.”
Worcester se tweemalige nasionale amateur-kampioen Bobby “BH3” Harris, III voldoen aan Brasiliaanse middelgewigtitel Saul Almeida (0-8-1) in die vier-round-mede featured gebeurtenis.

MASHANTUCKET, CT (September 16, 2017)Undefeated Irishman Niall “Boom Boom” Kennedy won a controversial 10-round split decision versus defending champion Alexis Santos to capture the New England heavyweight championship in last night’s (Saterdag) hoofgebeurtenis van Broadway Boxing held in Fox Theater, at Foxwoods Resort Casino, in Mashantucket, CT.
Die Broadway Boxing series is promoted by DiBella Entertainment and presented by Nissan of Queens, Azad Watches, OPTYX, and Christos Steak House. Last night’s show, which was streamed by FightNight LIVE on Facebook, was promoted in association with Murphys Boxing.
Kennedy (9-0, 5 Uitklophoue), fighting out of Galway, Ierland, by way of Boston, battled Santos in a competitive, action-packed brawl to be awarded the N.E. title by scores of 96-93, 96-93, 93-96. The majority of fans in attendance, outside of Kennedy’s Irish supporters, and the ringside media felt that Santos, Lawrence van, MA, had the edge and deserved the decision.
Skeidsregter Al LoBianco deducted a point from Santos in the ninth round for a highly questionable low blow and failed to rule a knockdown when it appeared the ropes kept Kennedy upright in a tremendous last round surge from the Dominican American.
In die mede-featured bout, voormalige wêreldkampioen Shelly “Shelito's Way” Vincent (20-1, 1 KO), van die Voorsienigheid, RI, defeated former world title challenger Engel “Non-StopGladney (9-13-1, 6 Uitklophoue) in a junior lightweight match. The colorful Vincent was the aggressor throughout the fight, effectively cutting off the ring, outboxing and walking down Gladney for a lop-sided eight-round unanimous decision (80-72, 80-71 twee keer).
Shelly Vincent (L) outclassed Angel Gladney
Rising Connecticut welterweight star “Wonderlike” Mykquan Williams verbeter sy rekord tot 8-0 (4 Uitklophoue), pitching a complete shutout in an impressive six-round unanimous decision (almal 60-54) win over a much more experienced and considerably taller EvinciiPrize FighterDixon (7-20-2, 2 Uitklophoue). Williams is a 19-year-old from East Hartford who is a freshman at Manchester Community College.
Mykquan Williams (L) cruised to another victory
2012 Oekraïens Olimpiese IevgenThe Ukrainian Lion” Khytrov (15-1, 13 Uitklophoue), veg uit Brooklyn, bounced back from his only pro loss with a near shutout eight-round decision victory (80-72 twee keer, 79-73) over his always tough super middleweight adversary, battle-tested veteran Derrick “Superman” Finley (27-22-1, 18 Uitklophoue).
It was different when I first started training after a loss,” Khytrov said after the fight. “I started to think more and work on my defense; to fight much smarter instead of just brawling, throwing punches, like I did before my loss. I came the US four years ago from a small country that’s not rich to become a world champion. I feel I’m back on the right track.
Ievgen Khytrov (R) bounced back with a solid win
Hot New England junior welterweight prospect AdrianTonka” Sosa (5-0, 4 Uitklophoue) stepped up in class against Mexican Francisco “die Mono” matige (11-10, 7 Uitklophoue), and remained undefeated by displaying his overall game, offensively and defensively. Fighting out of Lawrence, MA, die 2014 NIKS nie. amateur champion Sosa dropped Medal with a straight right in the first round, a sneaky body shot in the second and finished him off in the third with a crisp right to the temple as referee Al LoBianco immediately halted the action.
Pro-debuting welterweights Nicky DeQuattro (1-0, 1 KO) en Timothy Wheeler (0-1) engaged in a street fight from the opening bell until DeQuartro, fighting out of Johnson, RI, connected with an overhand right that dropped his New York City rival. Oomblikke later, DeQuattro unleashed a four-punch combination that dropped Wheeler for a complete 10-count.
The night started with a barnburner as former Irish amateur standout Ray Moylette (6-0, 2 Uitklophoue) kept his undefeated pro record intact but it certainly wasn’t easy. Moylette overcame a second-round knockdown, coming back strong in the second half of the fight to take a six-round split decision versus game junior welterweight Donte Bryant (1-3-1, 1 KO).

I am proud to officially announce my 6th Official Amateur Boxing Reunion that will take place on March 18 at Monique’s Lounge in Harlem, New York.

At my past reunions, including the most recent one held at the Rival Boxing Store in Las Vegas on November 18, we’ve had the likes of Roy Jones Jr., Alex “Die Bronx Bomber” Ramos, 1992 Olympian Montell Griffin, former three time world champions Mike McCallum and Iran Barkley, en “The Fighterand Irish Micky Ward in attendance.
Among the most special of moments at my reunions, we had Mike McCallum and Alex Ramos, who met each other in the semi-finals of the 1980 NYC Golden Gloves, reconnect in Las Vegas in late 2014, we had Luis Ortiz and Lawrence Clay-Bey, who were brought together in 2015 at Foxwoods after not only not seeing each other in 38 YEARS but after not even knowing they fought against each other in 1977 until just a few days before they reunited and in NYC over the summer of 2015 ons het 1984 New York City Golden Gloves 156 pound champion and runner up DennisThe MagicianMilton and Jesse Lanton connect once again.
Any media who wish to attend the event in Harlem, New York on March 18 are more than welcome to be a part of the festivities.
