伍斯特, 質量. (十一月 29, 2021) – The rematch of the unofficial 2021 New England Fight of the Year will headline the December 18日 “New England Future VIII” event, 里維拉促銷娛樂介紹 (RPE), highlighting Webster’s (嘛) first professional boxing event in 27 歲月, at Webster Town Hall.

Puerto Rico-native Wilfredo “El Sucaro” Pagan (6-1-1, 3 科斯), fighting out of Southbridge (嘛), and Bridgeport’s (CT) 卡洛斯·馬雷羅, III (2-6-2), fought to an entertaining 6-round split draw this past August 14日 在伍斯特 (嘛).

“I am very excited we were able to get the rematch between Pagan and Marrero so quick,” RPE promoter Jose Antonio Rivera commented. “These two warriors put their heart and soul in their last fight and the fans were not disappointed. As a promoter these are the type of fights we love to put together. We are 3 weeks away from another great boxing event to see some talented up and coming future champions. Webster Town Hall is going to be electric!”

Pagan and Marrero will be fighting once again for the vacant New England Super Lightweight Championship in the Dec.18日 6-輪的主要事件.

The original Pagan-Marrero was non-stop, action-packed throw-down which the judges’ scored 58-56 in favor or Pagan, 55-59 for Marrero, 和 57-57. The scoring was originally announced as a split-decision win for Marrero but, 回想起來, both fighters have taken the emotional outcome changes in stride. Some fuel, 雖然, has been poured on the fire, largely through social media.

“When the fight was done,” Pagan commented, “as a fighter, you know if your fight was won, lost or very close. It was a little close, but that I won the fight. When the decision was announced that he had won, I closed my eyes, because it reminded me of my amateur career. I definitely won a few fights, 我主宰, but I didn’t get the decision. Anything can happen when it goes into the judges’ hands. The judges didn’t see me winning, okay, but then they reversed the decision. I thought that they had gotten it right and I had won, but it was announced as a draw. 就是這樣, okay, because the judges’ job isn’t as easy as people think. They saw ups and downs and had it a draw.

“II was thinking, here we go again, when it was announced a draw,” Marrero said. “For some reason, every time I fight in Massachusetts it’s always controversial. I had dropped to my knees in happiness and when the second announcement was made, I thought they were giving him the win. A draw? I’m not upset but I was surprised because I felt I had won. I went home thinking it was a draw, not a loss, and hopefully we’d have a rematch. And we do December 18日.”

Pagan vs. Marrero is an example of not needing two great fighters to have a great fight. They’re evenly matched and both fighters have tremendous heart.

“People had asked if I wanted a rematch and I said, 是的, I’m thinking about it because it was a draw,” Pagan offered. “I wasn’t going to say no if it was offered, but the No. 1 reason for me to fight him is for the New England Championship. As long as I fought him for the title, I was for it because I want to fight for the belt and that’s what is my target. That was my feeling at the beginning, but things changed a little, because he changed. I don’t know what people told him, I’m not some kid and I had a lot of respect for him. But then he started texting me. I don’t know if it was to spice up this fight, but he crossed the line. He said a lot he shouldn’t have said. I’ always humble and respect all fighters because they’re risking their lives. I don’t know why he said what he did, but he’s given me even more motivation. I want that belt! I’m training double to beat him and shut his month. I still have some respect for him, but it’s not the same.

“I made a lot of mistakes in our first fight and made the fight much harder than it was supposed to be. I’ve been working on adjustment and, 希望, 上月 18日 it will pay-off.”

“I always have a little room for improvement after a fight, and we saw some things I needed to improve for the rematch,” Marrero explained. “I’m more mentally prepared to do things and will be much smarter in the ring. 物理, I’m a lot stronger and sharper. The key for me is being mentally prepared and sharper. 他的 (Pagan’s) opponent for his last fight fell out and my manager, Nate Torres, contacted me saying I had been offered an opportunity to fight Pagan. Without hesitation, 我說是的. I’m always in the gym and ready to fight. I came in 2-pounds under and I’m on weight right now for this fight. The only thing I had to prepare for is he’s a southpaw.

“We had a great fight. He probably thinks he won a few rounds, I felt I won the fight. He missed more and I connected with the cleaner punches the judges could see. In the third or fourth round, I hurt him with a body shot. He folded and I hit him with another good shot.”

在共功能的事件, 丹伯里 (CT) super lightweight Omar “The Beast” Bordoy (11-1, 3 科斯) faces an opponent to be determined in the 6-round match.

Promising Boca Raton (FL) super welterweight prospect Josniel “TG” Castro (7-0, 5 科斯) is steps up in terms of quality opposition in a 6-rounder versus Lenwood “Mr. Composure” Dozier (10-28-3, 5 科斯).

Worcester super middleweight Bobby “BH3” Harris, III (3-0-1), a two-time national amateur champion and World Games Silver medalist, will meet David Rohn (0-10-1) in a 4-round super middleweight bout.

Undefeated Worcester cruiserweight prospect Derek “Hightower” Edmonds (3-0, 2 科斯), a 3-time N.E. 金手套冠軍, has been added to the card in a 4-round bout against TBA.

Worcester middleweight Eslih Owusu (6-0, 4 科斯), a native of Ghana, faces Anthony Everett (1-0), 勞倫斯, in a 4-rounder.

DERRY, N.H. (八月 30, 2020) – Two regional title bouts, supported by several stay-busy fights, highlighted Granite Chin Promotion’s first pro boxing event since this past November, ‘Return to Derry,” last night (週六, 八月. 29), in front of a near capacity crowd at New England Sports Center in Derry, 新罕布什爾.

Two world champions were in attendance to support the fighters, undefeated reigning World Boxing Organization (WBO) 中量級冠軍 德米特里 “布布” 安德拉德 和“高盧” 何塞·安東尼奧·里維拉, 退役3次, 2-division title holder.

“I’m glad that tonight we took as step forward towards normalcy,” 促進者 克里斯·特萊蒂 評論. Sports help to bring people together and tonight we had a packed house with people of all races, religions, and creeds. I’m happy these Americans enjoyed themselves here tonight.”

賈斯汀 “Crazy Train” Rolfe was crowned New England heavyweight champion by way of an 8-round unanimous decision over Tracey “泰坦” 約翰遜 在主要事件.

Rolfe vs. Johnson II was a rematch of a 6-round majority draw last November in Quincy, 馬薩諸塞州. A lot more was at stake in the rematch, 雖然, because the N.E. heavyweight title was on the line. Boston southpaw Johnson, the half-brother of Andrade, methodically boxed, while Maine-resident Rolfe came forward throwing bombs, and their contrast of styles made for a entertaining fight.

The elusive Johnson started finding his range in the fourth round, connecting with combinations as Rolfe appeared to tire, but he got his second wind and continued to be aggressive, often pinning Johnson on the ropes. The two evenly matched fighters went back and forth in the latter half of the fight, although Rolfe pressed the action and Johnson countered. Neither appeared to be hurt at any point during the bout., Both let loose in the eighth and final round, leaving nothing in the tank. Rolfe’s non-stop attack and turned out to be the difference in this match-up.

Ryan DiBartolomeo captured the vacant New Hampshire welterweight title, taking a 6-round split decision over Kris Jacobs, 在共同功能的事件. “I live in Massachusetts but all my fights (3-0-1) have been in New Hampshire and I train in Nashua (NH),” DiBartolomeo said after the fight. “Fighting in New Hampshire is like fighting at home and now I’m the New Hampshire welterweight champ.”

DiBartolemeo quickly came out of the corner and soon dropped Jacobs for an 8-count. Jacobs made it through the opening round, but he was unable to avoid the free-swinging DiBartolemeo’s strong right hand, peppering his opponents head, 在第二輪. Jacobs settled down in the third, picked-up the pace in the fourth, and started letting his hands go more in the fifth, landing more effectively on his aggressive foe. The two fighters went at it toe-to-toe in the final round and DiBartolemeo closed the show.

New England middleweight champion 肯德里克·鮑爾, JR., fighting light heavyweight Tahuk Taylor, displayed his skill set to the maximum, blasting his opponent to the mat with a sweet straight right, again with a beautiful left hook, and he was about to close the show when refereeJackie Morell mercifully ended the fight with 13-seconds left in round one.

Popular junior welterweight 話筒 “Bad Man” OHan, JR. did just about everything but stop gritty DeWayne智慧, who was penalized two points and officially floored once. But he survived, albeit losing a lop-sided 6-round unanimous decision to Ohan.

新英格蘭金手套冠軍 弗朗西斯 “Frank The Tank” 霍根 dismissed Rashan Wisdom, who went down on the canvas twice before his corner threw in the towel. Hogan is a tall, lanky southpaw who is well schooled and now 2-0 (2 科斯).

In a spirited fight, 不敗輕重量級 Edet “爸爸” Mkpanam (4-0, 3 科斯) was relentless against a game 索爾 “Spider” 阿爾梅達, one of the top mixed-martial-arts fighters in New England. Mkpanan dropped Almeida in the first two rounds on his way to a tough 4-round unanimous decision.

Promising Boston lightweight prospect 喬納森Depina outclassed Theo “The Unholy Truth” Desjardin, flooring him early and finishing him off soon after with a blistering shot, to improve to 2-0 (2 科斯).

中量級 Anthony Concepcion won by way of a third-round disqualification when his opponent, 親開張 Caleb Denham, ignored the referee’s instructions to continue fighting.

中量級 Larry “Slomoshun” 工匠, 達拉斯之戰, recorded his first victory in more than nine years, taking a 4-round unanimous decision from 耶穌 “The Juice” Cintron. The 41-year-old Smith, 0-39-2 during his winless streak, dropped Anderson in the first round.


Larry Smith celebrated after his first win in 9 歲月

得克薩斯州輕重量級 布賴恩·維拉 淘汰 Mike Anderson with a big right hand early in round one. 裁判 Leo Gerstel immediately waved off the count right after Anderson hit the mat. 維拉, who is known for his participating in 競爭者 電視真人秀, has defeated world champions 塞爾吉奧·莫拉 (兩次), then-undefeated 李兆 和 Serhiy Dzinziruk during his 16-year pro career.

Veteran junior middleweight Cliff “Magician” McPherson had no tricks for 泰隆 “石手” Luckey because he was disqualified in the second round by referee Morrell for repeated holding.

Opening the night was a cruiserweight match between Larry “殺手” 普賴爾 和 Francisco Neto. It didn’t take long for Pryor, whose cousin was the late, 名人堂成員 亞倫 “Hawk” 普賴爾, put down Neto with a nicely placed left hook. Neto beat the count but stood on wobbly legs, leading referee Gerstel to halt the fight at the 35-second mark of the opening round.

Boxing saved the life of Two-Division World Champion “El Gallo” Jose Antonio Rivera

發表評論

科羅拉多斯普林斯, 膝部. (六月 4, 2020) – Like many boxers, 2處世界冠軍 “厄爾尼諾加洛”何塞·安東尼奧·里維拉 credits boxing for saving his life.

“Absolutely,” Rivera agreed. “After my mom passed away when I was 10 歲, I gave up on life and my decision-making reflected that: hanging around with the wrong crowd including gang members, consuming alcohol between the ages of 10 and 15. I was definitely going in the wrong direction.

“I never thought I had a future until I started boxing. It’s hard to say what I’d be doing if I had never boxed, but by the way I was living, I’d probably be in jail or dead by now.”

Born in Philadelphia, Rivera lived in Puerto Rico and Springfield, 嘛, prior to him moving to Worcester, 嘛, where he met a man who helped change his life, 卡洛斯·加西亞, who was in charge of a special boxing program at the Worcester Boys & 女孩俱樂部.

Rivera had started boxing at the age of 14 ½ in a basement with his friend, Felix Lopez.  He had fallen in love with boxing after watching羅伯托·杜蘭 upset“Sugar” Ray Leonard in their first fight. The young Puerto Rican-American specifically used his amateur boxing experience to prepare for the professional ranks. Garcia, who is in the National Golden Gloves Hall of Fame, put him in a novice match after only one amateur fight in order to put Rivera on the fast track, because he understood that Rivera dreamed of becoming a world champion as a professional. Rivera finished with a 35-15 業餘紀錄, highlighted by a bronze medal performance at the PAL Nationals.

“I never had big amateur aspirations but, 當然, I wanted to win every fight I competed in,” Rivera said. “Once I didn’t qualify for the Olympic Trials, my plan was to turn pro. I didn’t know how much the amateurs would groom me to be a successful professional boxer. I’m glad I listened to my coaches, otherwise I would have turned pro earlier, because I would get frustrated with the politics of the amateurs. I hated losing, but I hated losing even more when I knew that I should have won. After three years together (with Garcia) in the amateurs and gaining a great wealth of experience traveling all over New England, the country and even fighting in Canada, I saw all types of styles and talented boxers that helped me as a pro. Carlos is like a father figure to me and during all of our training and travels, he was always in my head, building me up to become a good boxer, but also to help me become a better man.”

十一月 7, 1992, Rivera made his pro debut, 淘汰Francisco Mercedes in the second round. He went on to win his first 23 pro bouts, including the Massachusetts State welterweight title in 1995. His first pro loss was to veteran Philadelphia fighterWillie Wise (20-3-4), who won a controversial 10-round split decision at Foxwoods Resort Casino in Connecticut. Rivera had proven that he was more than a prospect in his first loss, losing a close decision (98-95, 94-97, 94-96) to an opponent that upset Mexican icon塞薩爾查韋斯 (102-3-2) only three years later.

Showing the same resiliency that stayed with Rivera his entire career, two fights later Rivera stoppedGilberto Flores in two rounds to capture the International Boxing Organization (IBO) world welterweight championship. Rivera extended his new win streak to seven, before losing back to back fights. Four fights later, 雖然, Rivera registered his first statement victory in 2001, 淘汰Frankie Randall (55-10-1) 在 10日 round to retain his North American Boxing Association (還) crown in his first defense.

Now promoted by legendary Don King, Rivera traveled across the Atlantic Ocean in September 2003 to Germany, where few Americans were able to win. Rivera proved early that he meant business, dropping previously undefeatedMichel Trabant in the second round en route to winning a 12-round majority decision for the vacant World Boxing Association (WBA).  His reign, 然而, didn’t last long. In his first defense, Rivera lost a 12-round split decision at home in Worcester to challenger路易斯·科拉佐 (24-1)

Rivera moved up one weight class for his next fight, showing the resiliency that was a staple during his career for his next fight, also at home, against WBA junior middleweight World championAlexandro Garcia (25-1).

In his next fight and first defense of his third world title, Rivera was stopped for the first time in his pro career, by new champTravis Simms (24-0), and then he was knocked out by丹尼爾·桑托斯 (24-0) in round eight of their WBA junior middleweight title eliminator.

Rivera retired in 2008 only to make a comeback in 2001, after which he retired again until returning for two fights in Worcester to complete his pro career with 50 打架, the last coming at the age of 46.

“Jose’s USA Boxing experiences shaped him into the man of character he is today, 兩個進出環,“說克里斯tofflemire, USA Boxing Alumni Director. “He took the road less traveled for a world champion, and in doing so he showcased his toughness and perseverance that made him a great example for today’s USA Boxers.”

Rivera was a true working world champion. Few world champions also had full-time jobs during their title reigns. Rivera used vacation time, as well as personal and sick days, when he went to training camp for some of his major fights.

“I always had a good work ethic growing up,” he explained. “When I moved to Worcester at 16 歲, I lived by myself: 學校, 工作, and then to the Boys & Girls Club to train. I kept the same work ethic I had at 19 when I turned pro. I became a father at 20, so providing for my family was essential. Although it was hard, I knew boxing wasn’t going to last forever, and I was lucky enough to find a good job working for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Trial Courts. It made for long days when I was training, especially when I was fighting for or defending my world championships. In the end, 雖然, keeping my job was the best decision I could have made for me and my family.”

里維拉. who was an Associate Court Officer for years and promoted last year to Assistant Chief Court Officer, is still involved in boxing. He and his oldest son, A.J. 里維拉, own and operate a boxing promotional company, 里維拉促銷娛樂, to give young fighters in his area opportunities to fight more often and at home. Jose occasionally drops by the Boys & Girls Club to visit his former coaches, Garcia and洛基岡薩雷斯, to support their young talent. He also goes to his friend肯德里克·鮑爾’s gym, Camp Be Right, to give young fighters there a few tips and to keep in shape (not for another comeback).

Jose Antonio Rivera will be best known for his toughness and determination, which led him into a different life, including three world championships and a wonderful life he never would have enjoyed.

“伍斯特男孩 & 女孩俱樂部幫我遠離街道，所以我可以專注於我成為世界冠軍的夢想,” 里維拉想起. “這對我是一個地方，這麼多的人去和安全. 童裝, 不只是拳擊手, 可那裡的孩子, 他們不必擔心發生的事情在街頭.

官方結果
THE CHAMP IS BACK: referee Bob Benoit (L) and Jose Antonio Rivera

伍斯特, 質量. (八月 19, 2018) – Seven years after his last fight, “高盧” 何塞·安東尼奧·里維拉 returned to the ring in grand fashion last night (星期六) 頭條 “歸國, presented by Granite Chin Promotions in association with Rivera Promotions Entertainment, 在伍斯特鈀, 馬薩諸塞州.

 

 

 

The 45-year-old Rivera (42-6-1, 25 科斯), 35 pounds lighter than he was in February when he started training, packed the house in his hometown, fully entertained his supportive fans. 三次, two-division world champion Rivera pressured Larry “Slomoshun: 工匠 (10-38-1, 7 科斯) from the opening bell and he never let up.

 

 

 

It took a few rounds for Rivera to wear off the rust, but he fed Smith a steady diet of body shots, gradually breaking down his opponent, as he won round after round on points. Twice in the sixth round it looked like Smith was done, but the tough Texan showed a lot of heart to survive.

 

 

 

最後, Rivera closed the show in the seventh round, when Smith broke his hand in the fifth round and was unable to continue, kneeling in his corner, obviously in pain.

 

 

 

“I’ve always been tough,” Rivera said after the fight, “but I was a little rusty. He tested me early but, once he saw I wasn’t going anywhere and knew he was in for a fight. I started warming up in the fourth round. I was always a 12-round fighter. I didn’t know he broke his hand until after the fight. 我感覺好極了. We gave a good fight to the fans who have always supported me.”

 

 

 

“I give myself a C+ tonight. I’m going to talk with my family, but I’m thinking about one more fight, to make it 50 for his pro career).”

 

 

 

何塞·安東尼奧·里維拉 (ř) had a successful comeback fight

 

 

 

在共功能的事件, Worcester super middleweight 肯德里克·鮑爾, JR. (10-1-2, 7 科斯) demolished 法比安 “El Lobo” 瓦爾迪茲 (2-4), flooring him with a right uppercut and soon after finished him with a vicious body shot for a technical-knockout victory in the opening round. The popular Ball was fighting at home for the first time as a professional

 

 

 

The rematch between Worcester junior middleweight Khiary Gray (16-4, 12 科斯) 和 安東尼奧·費爾南德斯查韋斯 (9-34, 4 科斯) ended in the same fashion as their first encounter did three years ago. Also fighting at home for the first time, Gray blasted out his game opponent, cracking him with a picture-perfect, left-fight combination that put Fernandez on his back. Fernandez beat the count, but referee Bob Benoit halted the action.

 

 

南橋, MA junior middleweight 維爾弗雷 “該Sucaro” 異教徒 (5-0, 3 科斯) 保持不敗, using a relentless body attack to drop Engelberto “Guarura” 巴倫蘇埃拉 (11-15, 3 科斯) 三次, the last ending the fight midway through the third round.

 

 

 

斯普林菲爾德, MA junior lightweight Joshua Orta (1-0, 1 KO) turned in an impressive pro debut in a barn-burner that ended when (1-8-1, 1 KO), 伍斯特的, was unable to continue fighting after the third round.

 

 

 

Worcester welterweight Eslih Owuso (1-0) pitched a shutout in his pro debut, decking veteran 布賴恩 “The Brick” 亞伯拉罕 (6-31-2, 6 科斯) 在第二輪的兩倍, 途中一致決定勝利.

 

 

 

In the opening bout of the night, 45-歲 何塞·安赫爾 “KO” 奧爾蒂斯 (5-14-1, 2 科斯) 下降 帕特里克·萊亞爾 (0-5) 10-seconds into the fight, once more later in the opening round, and stopped him in the second. Oritz, fighting out of Springfield, MA by way of Puerto Rico, was fighting for the first time in five years, and he registered his first victory in seven.

“高盧” Jose Antonio Rivera to headline “歸國”

發表評論
的冠軍又回來了!
八月 17 在伍斯特鈀, 嘛
“高盧” Jose Antonio Rivera hitting the pads with his trainer Sean Fitzgerald

 

伍斯特, 質量. (七月 31, 2018) – A dozen years after he captured his third world title in two different weight classes, seven since his last fight, “高盧” Jose Rivera returns to the ring August 17 頭條 “歸國”, presented by Granite Chin Promotions (GCP) in association with Rivera Promotions Entertainment (RPE), 在伍斯特鈀, 馬薩諸塞州.

 

 

 

The 45-year-old 里維拉 (41-6-1, 24 科斯) has already lost more than 30 英鎊, now within four pounds of his contracted weight, since he started training earlier this year. He will headline against Ruben “Modern Day Warrior” Galvan (27-26-4, 10 科斯) 在八輪的主要事件.

 

 

 

在 1997, Rivera captured the International Boxing Organization (IBO) World welterweight title, 停車 Gilberto Flores in the second round. Six years later, he traveled to Germany to take on undefeated, 家鄉的喜愛 Michel Trabant (38-0) 為空置世界拳擊協會 (WBA) World Welterweight Championship, in which Rivera won a 12-round decision and the belt.

 

 

 

In front of nearly 10,000 hometown fans in Worcester, Rivera capped his boxing career by winning a 12-round unanimous decision in 2006 over defending champion 亞歷杭德羅·加西亞(25-1) for the WBA World super welterweight title.

 

 

 

“The idea to return to the ring started with my son. A.J., and I talking about chasing history,” 里維拉解釋. “We are not able to put that together right now (A.J. was born with Spina Bifida and he was unable to secure medical clearance in time for the Aug. 17日 show.), but because of my hard work these last six months, I felt that it was only fitting to continue with my fight.

 

 

 

“Granite Chin Promotions has been very instrumental to make sure that this show is put together in the most professional manner possible. I won’t think our promotional company (Jos and A.J. own and operate RPE Promotions Entertainment) would have been able to pull this off. All the negotiations had to be done and me training the only way I know how, at a championship level, would have been too much for us to handle.”

 

 

 

花崗岩下巴促銷’ co-promoter 查Shearns 額外, “When Jose and I started talking about his ring return, I was the last person to think he was crazy. We were friends during his championship days and I know how incredibly committed and disciplined Jose is. 我在打 49 歲, not to compare myself to the level Jose has been on, but I know that it can be done. What everyone should know is how well Jose has taken care of himself during his thirties and into his forties. Did I ever think that 克里斯 (Traietti, GCP co-promoter) and I would be co-promoting Jose’s comeback? 別, but I’m happy to be involved and I will support him as far as he wants to take this. He’s been training like he’s 25 and Jose’s going to surprise some people.”

 

 

 

During Rivera’s title reigns, unlike other world champions, he also held a full-time job as a court officer in the Massachusetts Trial Court, a position in Worcester that he still holds 17 years later. Between working and training, never mind his family responsibilities, Jose somehow manages to balance everything in his extremely busy life.

 

 

 

“Let’s just say it makes for a busy schedule,” Rivera remarked. “I am committed to taking care of my family and will do whatever it takes. I usually run before work and train after work. Starting early and finishing late makes for busy days, but the job needs to get done. 現在, I’m in the middle of the hardest period of training. The week of the fight is more about preparing mentally and making weight. There’s nothing you can do the week of the fight to help you get into better shape.”

 

 

 

Rivera isn’t under any illusions that his comeback will lead to another major world title. The plan is for him to have two more fights to reach a total of 50 作為一個親, but he’s taking things one fight at a time, and he still hopes his next fight, tentatively slated for later this year, will be on the same card as his son’s pro debut.

 

 

 

Rivera last fought in 2011, taking an eight-round decision over Paul Mpendo, at Mohegan Sun Arena in Connecticut. The battle-tested Galvan, his Aug. 17日 opponent from Indiana, has fought other world champions, Including 朱達, 塞薩爾查韋斯, JR., 豪爾赫·佩茲 和 保羅Spadafora先生.

 

 

 

“I hear he comes to fight and that he likes to fool around a bit to try and get into his opponent’s head,” Rivera added. I’ve concentrated on me, my timing and focus on the game plan

 

 

 

“Training for this fight has been more mental than anything else. I have been able to reach peak performance at 45 training like I did in my prime. The most important thing is that, working with my trainer 肖恩·菲茨杰拉德, I’ve been focused on making sure my timing gets better since it’s been seven years since I last fought.

 

 

 

“和, 當然, it’s always a great feeling to box in front of my hometown fans. Their support is always appreciated.”

 

 

 

The name of the event is “歸國” because six fighters in action are from Worcester, including three who’ve never fought there before as professionals.

 

 

 

中量級 肯德里克·鮑爾, JR. (9-1-2, 6 科斯) and junior middleweight Khiary Gray (15-4, 11 科斯), both promoted by CES Boxing, will be fighting at home in Worcester as pros for the first time in a pair of six-round bouts.

伍斯特, 質量. (七月 19, 2018) – 花崗岩下巴促銷 (GCP) 里維拉促銷娛樂 (RPE) hosted a press conference yesterday at The Ballot Box in Worcester, 馬薩諸塞州, to make a major announcement, as well as introduce local fighters on the August 17日pro boxing card at The Palladium in Worcester.

 

 

 

三次, 2處世界冠軍 “高盧” 何塞·安東尼奧·里維拉 (41-6-1, 24 科斯) is making his return in the “Making History” 主要事件, in large part because he wanted to fight on the same card as his son, A.J. 里維拉, who was to become the first pro boxer who was born with Spina Bifida. A.J., who is a rising matchmaker in New England, was unable to get medically cleared in time and he will not be fighting Aug. 17.

 

 

 

The event has been renamed, “歸國”, because six of the competing fighters, including Jose Antonio Rivera, live in Worcester.

 

 

 

“不幸,” announced promoter 查Shearns, who co-promotes Granite Chin Promotions with 克里斯·特萊蒂, “A.J. isn’t fighting on this show because he couldn’t get medically cleared in time.”

 

 

 

“I trained hard and was within five or six pounds of my contract weight,” a disappointed A.J. 里維拉解釋. “I passed all of the medical tests except for the CATSCAN. I fought the doctor a little and said I wanted a second opinion. Those results won’t be in time, so I can’t fight on this card.”

 

 

 

“The reason I’m coming back was to make history with my son,” Jose Antonio Rivera added. “We had talked about it a long time but, 可惜, it wasn’t meant to be for A.J. for this card. He’s already part of history already as the only fighter born with Spina Bifida who fought as an amateur. I feel bad, but everything happens for a reason and as a father, my son’s safety always comes first. He will continue to be an important part of our team to make our company a success. People are thrown curveballs in life like this and we’ve regrouped to turn this into a positive. We’re still fighting for the cause (Spina Bifida).”

新聞發布會行情

 

Joe Antonio Rivera: “I want to thank everybody for coming. Tomorrow is four weeks to the weigh in. It’s an important date because fighting is easy, making weight isn’t. I want to thank Granite Chin Promotions

 

 

 

“Four Worcester fighters (球, Gray, Irizarry and Owusu) on this card have never fought here. It’s huge having Kendrick and Khiary on this card and I’d like to thank CES Boxing for allowing them to fight here. I’m proud of Kendrick and Khiary and excited to have them fighting on this show. Chuck and Granite Chin are running this show, I’m only focused on my opponent.

 

 

 

“I’m excited to have an opponent who is coming to fight. He’s my third opponent, but that’s part of boxing. 我刻苦訓練, passed my medicals, and it’s like I’m hungry again. I haven’t fought in years, but I’ve taken good care of my body. I didn’t visualize doing this at 45. I’ve also heard that, after August 17日, there’s a possibility of a title for me by the end of this year.”

 

查Shearns (GCP co-promoter): “I’m honored to be involved in this show. Jose and I have been friends for years. Months ago, this all started with a text conversation (Chuck, Jose and A.J.). A week later, it started getting serious, and then we had Jose and A.J. fighting on this card. 不幸, A.J. isn’t fighting on this card, but the show will go on.”

 

吉米·伯奇菲爾德 (CES promoter): “What’s important is that Jose Antonio Rivera is fighting on this card and that’s why I’m allowing ‘Pepper’ (球) and Khiary to fight on this card. I’ve had a good relationship with Chuck and I’ve known Jose and A.J., who worked for me, for a long time. Nothing was happening in Worcester boxing for years, until Jose and A.J. started promoting here, but Worcester has always been a good fight town. All the fighters here will be proud of your victory. 這很漂亮! They’ve been around him and know what he’s accomplished in life. Jose has never abused his body, he’s taken good care of himself.

 

 

 

“We (CES拳擊) had an event scheduled August 17日 at Twin River (Lincoln, RI), but we moved from that date, and now everything is focused August 17日 on Worcester. How could I not have my Worcester fighters on Jose Rivera’s comeback card? ‘Pepper’ and Khiary really wanted to fight on this card. These kids (fighters seated at head table) look up to Jose for what he’s done and in life and his comeback is a really big story. I know what ‘Pepper” and Khiary are going to do and I know what Jose is going to do because he’s a veteran. I believe this will be a sell out!”

 

肯德里克·鮑爾, 小: “I want to thank my promoter, 吉米·伯奇菲爾德, for giving me the okay to fight on this card. I also want to thank Granite Chin Promotions and Rivera Promotions Entertainment. I’ve waited for this a long time. This fight will give me a chance to redeem myself and show why I’m the next great middleweight to come out of Worcester. I’m ready to get it on.”

 

Khiary Gray: “I want to thank Rivera Promotions Entertainment, CES Boxing and Granite Chin Promotions for giving me a chance to fight at home for the first time. This is a rematch for me. I stopped him in the first round, but there was some controversy. I know he’s coming to fight.”

 

Eslih Owusi: “I just graduated from high school and I wasn’t going to turn pro until after that. Fighting as a pro will be much more exciting than in the amateurs.”

 

Jose Angel Ortiz: “我很興奮. I haven’t fought in two years. I was supposed to return before, but things didn’t work out. I never left boxing because I’m in the gym all the time working out or training other fighters. Jose and I are both in our forties. We’re going to show everybody that we can still fight.”

 

埃德溫·羅薩: “I will try and put on the best show I can.”

 

Joshua Orta: “I’m very happy about my first pro fight. I’ve dreamed of this day. Everybody is going to see an exciting card. I love this sport and always train hard.”
