PARK CITY, Jista. (Frar 11, 2018) – U.S. Olympian and hometown favorite Nico Hernandez captured the vacant International Boxing Association (IBA) Americas flyweight title in his fourth professional fight, headlining last night’s “KO Lejl Boxing” deheb & Glorja” card, fil Hartman Arena fil-Park Belt, Kansas.
Ippreżentat minn “KO Night Boxing LLC,” the card was taped live to be shown at a later date on CBS Sports Network. “KO Lejl Boxing” deheb & Glorja” card, presented by KO Night Boxing LLC,
Il Hernandez 22-il sena (4-0, 3 Kos) stopped last-minute replacement, logħba Victor “L-Bull” Torres, fil-ħames rawnd.
Hernandez’ opponent oriġinali, 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, Il-Ġermanja, after leaving his passport on the plane he took from Budapest. Once he landed in Chicago nhar l-Erbgħa, 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,” promotur John Andersen qal. “Għal darb'oħra, 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’ sigurtà.
“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).”
Fil-każ ko dehru, Minneapolis welterweight Javonte Starks (13-2, 7 Kos) and Mexican veteran Cesar Soriano (28-36-2, 17 Kos) fought to a six-round majority draw.
Bakersfield, CA pro-debuting Derrick Clayton upset Milwaukee junior welterweight Akeem Iswed (3-2, 1 KO), registering a second-round technical knockout.
Wichita middleweight jeff Sturm (2-0, 1 KO) baqa undefeated, stopping intrastate rival Brian Clements, ta 'Topeka, halfway through the opening round.
Another pro-debuting California fighter, welterweight junior Chazz Macias, meħtieġa biss1:20 to knockout Omaha’s Corey Roberts.
Fighting for the first time in 5 ½ snin, Washington D.C. heavyweight Maurice “merkanzija ferrovija” Brerm (14-2-1, 10 Kos) took out 300-pounder Richard “Silverback” Carmack (15-13-1, 12 Kos) fil round wieħed.

Olympic medalist Nico Hernandez injured, “KO Lejl Boxing: deheb & Glorja” postponed

Ħalli kumment
Frar. 10 fil Hartman Arena fil-Park Belt, KS
PARK CITY, Kansas (Novembru 27, 2017) – Due to an injury suffered by 2016 Olympic bronze medalist Nico Hernandez last week at training camp, din is-Sibt tal-lejl “KO Lejl Boxing: deheb & Glorja” card, presented by KO Night Boxing LLC, has been postponed until Frar 10, at the same venue, Hartman Arena in Park City, Kansas.
The 21-year-old Hernandez was scheduled to headline the event in his hometown against Hungarian flyweight champion Jozsef “Aħmar Little” Ajtai (19-9, 12 Kos) in the eight-round main event for the vacant International Boxing Association (IBA) Americas flyweight championship.
The promoter plans to keep the card intact, as much as possible, and he is hopeful that Ajtai is available to challenge Hernandez for the IBA Americas title.
“Injuries are an unfortunate part of boxing, but the good news is that Nico will be 100-percent ready to go February 10th,” promotur John Andersen qal. “I know that Nico feels that he’s letting everybody down but, at the end of the day, all that really counts is his health. He’s a tough kid who has his entire pro career ahead of him.”

2016 Olympic bronze medalist Nico Hernandez & Hungarian champion Jozsef Ajtai have taken different paths into pro ranks

“KO Lejl Boxing: deheb & Glorja” għall
vacant IBA Americas flyweight title
Diċembru. 2 fil Hartman Arena fil-Park Belt, KS
PARK CITY, Kansas (Novembru 20, 2017) – USA Olympian and hometown hero Nico Hernandez and Hungarian flyweight champion Jozsef “Aħmar Little” Ajtai took completely different paths into the professional ranks.
Hernandez vs, Ajtai is the eight-round main event for the vacant International Boxing Association (IBA) Americas flyweight title fight, IS-SIBT lejl, Diċembru 2, fuq il- “KO Lejl Boxing: deheb & Glorja” card, fil Hartman Arena fil-Park Belt, Kansas.
“KO Lejl Boxing: deheb & Glorja” hija preżentazzjoni ta KO Lejl Boxing LLC., f'assoċjazzjoni ma Hartman Arena, u sponsorjati parzjalment mill Twister Belt Harley Davidson metro PCS, Mort’s Cigar Bar uJimmy’s Egg.
L-azzjoni ser tkun taped ħajjin għal ventilazzjoni futura dwar Netwerk Isport CBS.
The 21-year-old Hernandez (3-0, 2 Kos), ġlieda kontra minn Wichita, was a decorated amateur boxer who compiled a sterling 123-12 rekord, highlighted by his bronze-medal winning performance at the 2016 Logħob Olimpiku fil-Brażil. Hernandez made his pro debut last March. All his fights have been at home, each has been in the main event, and on national television. His fight against Ajtai, madankollu, will be his first title fight, coming in only his fourth pro bout.
Ajtai, li huwa ta 'sena u sitt ijiem iżgħar minn Hernandez, made his professional debut 2 ½ years ago, and he’s already fought in five title fights.
Hernandez’ amateur pedigree versus Ajtai’s pro experience?
“I feel like I’m already at the level of a lot of top pro fighters,” Hernandez said. The only advantage he has is he’s used to fighting more rounds than I (this is Nico’s first scheduled 8-rounder), but I don’t plan on letting it go the distance anyways.
“I feel blessed to have this IBA title fight opportunity so early in my pro career. It honestly couldn’t come any faster. I do believe it will be special and open a tot of opportunities to fight bigger names once I win this fight. A win should open-up additional title fight opportunities, both overseas and, hopefully, back here at home to help us continue building Wichita into a fight town.”
Ajtai (19-9, 12 Kos) has already had 28 tissielet pro, including a full 10-round distance loss by decision last year at Madison Square Garden in New York City to two-time Olympic gold medalist SHIMING Zou, l-ex-Organizzazzjoni Dinjija Boxing (WBO) champion tad-dinja flyweight. The Hungarian has fought at home in Hungary, as well as on the road in the United Kingdom, Spanja, Il-Ġermanja, Ukraina u s-Slovakkja. A trip to America’s heartland doesn’t faze him in the least.
“He will be at home, where everybody wants to fight, but this isn’t a problem for me,” Ajtai explained. “I know he is a good boxer, but I will try to be a bit better December 2nd. When my condition is good, as it is for this fight, nobody likes to fight me.
“Din hija opportunità kbira għalija. It’s always difficult to beat a good fighter but doing so is real success. Fighting Shiming Zou in only my fourth fight was very nice for me. I want that feeling again in this fight against Nico.”
Hernandez realizes that this fight could be his last at home for a while, due to the lack of quality American flyweights, and that most world-class fighters in his weight class are from Central America, Thailand and Japan.
“I don’t think I’ll have many more fights at home,” Hernandez admits. “I don’t think that will matter too much because I feel more pressure fighting at home than elsewhere. I will miss everyone cheering my name like they do at home. I think I’ll be traveling more to fight bigger names to work my way up the ladder until I’m at the top.
“I think the early rounds in this fight (vs. Ajtai) will be a chess match because, from what I’ve seen, he runs a lot. I feel that once I start landing my body shots, he’ll slowdown in the latter rounds. u, like I’ve said, I don’t plan on this fight going the distance.”
Ajtai, tal-kors, isn’t traveling all the way to Kansas to visit Dorothy or the Wizard of Oz, hu wasal biex tirbaħ!
“Nico mhux se tkun taf fejn I se jkunu fiċ-ċirku,” Ajtai mbassra. “Meta huwa jistenna lejn ix-xellug għalija, I se jmorru lejn il-lemin; meta huwa jipprova jsib lili fuq il-lemin, I se tkun fuq ix-xellug. Meta trid mistrieħ, I se tressaq ippanċjar; meta trid punch, hu mhux se ssib lili.
“I jkollhom pjan għall din il-ġlieda u jien żgur hu ma ukoll. Iżda, fiċ-ċirku, biss pjan wieħed ġellied tista 'tirnexxi. Huwa ser tkun ġlieda tajba, imma ma nistax wegħda lill-pubbliku li Nico se jkun ir-rebbieħ.”
The full “deheb & Glorja” card will be announced later this week. Kollha ġlied u ġellieda huma soġġetti għal bidla.

GĦALL-ĦRUĠ IMMEDJAT
“KO NIGHT BOXING” RESULTS FROM KANSAS
PALM CITY, Kansas (Settembru 24, 2017) – The name of last night’s “KO Lejl Boxing: Step Up” event certainly was appropriate as 2016 Olympic bronze medalist Nico Hernandez had to overcome a major obstacle to remain undefeated at Hartman Arena in Palm City, Kansas.
“KO Lejl Boxing: Step Up!” was a presentation of KO Night Boxing LLC., in association with Roc Nation Sports and Hartman Arena, sponsored by Mort’s Cigar Bar, Jimmy Egg and Twister City Harley-Davidson. The action was taped live for future airing on CBS Sports Network.
St. Louis southpaw Kendrick “Uprising” Latchman outweighed regular flyweight Hernandez by more than 10 pounds when the two fighters entered the ring because Hernandez’ scheduled opponent, Basyzbek Baratov (2-1-2), abruptly pulled out of the fight after the weigh in due to a contractual disagreement. Hernandez weighed in at 113 liri, Baratov was 112, which was the contracted weight. The Kansas Athletic Commission, madankollu, automatically allows one-pound over for all non-title fights. Baratov refused to fight but Latchman agreed to fight at a 125-pound catchweight. Hernandez gained four pounds and the fight was on.
Wichita hero Hernandez was unmoved by the late change, largely due to his standout amateur career, in which his opponents often changed at the last moment. Latchman (1-5-1, 1 KO) is a pro boxer-MMA hybrid fighter who is 6-3 (5 Kos) fil MMA, including a 55-second stoppage of 14-7-1 Cody Land f'Lulju ta 'din passat.
Latchman buzzed Hernandez in the first round, much to the chagrin of the Hernandez’ loud hometown crowd. The U.S. Olympian displayed a good chin and went on to win a six-round unanimous decision to improve his pro record to 3-0 (2 Kos).
“They (his corner and fans) were nervous,” the 21-year-old Hernandez said after the fight, “imma jien ma kienx. My coach (father Lewis Hernandez) told me to feint and go in, but I lunged a little too much. Ħej, I’m staying in my division (flyweight) before moving up in weight.”
“Nico had to step up, fighting a new opponent on 24-hour notice, along with the difference in their weights,” promotur John Andersen ikkummenta. “Everything turned out okay but it wasn’t an easy fight. My palms were a little sweaty in the first round when he got hit hard, but Nico pulled out the win and he’ll be an even better fighter because of this experience. His father said Nico had never been hit like that before. It was a good card and the crowed was really into it.”
KO Night Boxing LLC announced that Hernandez would return Diċembru 2 to headline another show at Hartman Arena.
USBA No. 2- rated featherweight Tramaine “The Might Midget” Williams (13-0, 5 Kos), fighting out of New Haven (CT), cruised to his 13th victory without a defeat, taking a one-sided 10-round unanimous decision over Derrick Murray (13-3, 5 Kos), in the co-featured event.
Key West, FL welterweight Armando “L-Gentleman: Alvarez (17-0, 11 Kos) baqa undefeated, winning a 10-round unanimous decision against Hungarian champion Gabor “Squirrel” Gorbics (23-8, 14 Kos) in a competitive Special Welterweight Attraction. Alvarez is the WBC Latino welterweight title holder.
Undefeated Chinese heavyweight prospect Zhilei “Big Bang” Zhang (18-0, 14 Kos), the reigning WBO Oriental champion, meħtieġa biss 2:28 to stop veteran Byron “Il Bear” Polley(30-22-1, 13 Kos). Zhang, as well as Williams, are promoted by Roc Nation Sports.
In the most dramatic fight of the night, Los Angeles heavyweight Scott Alexander (13-2-2, 7 Kos) rebounded from being decked, as well as a pre-fight cut, to knockout 361-pound Richard “Silverback” Carmack (15-12-1, 12 Kos) fit-tieni rawnd. Alexander suffered a cut on his shin that resulted from a step breaking as he entered the ring.
Milwaukee junior middleweight Akeem Iswed (3-1, 1 KO) won three of four rounds on all three judges’ scorecards for a four-round unanimous decision over Marcus Neal (2-2, 2 Kos).
Wichita light heavyweight Jeff Strum pitched a shutout in his pro debut against Topeka’s (KS) previously unbeaten Chris Ortega (3-1-1), winning all four rounds in impressive fashion.

PARK CITY, Kansas (Awissu 10, 2017) – KO Night Boxing LLC and Hartman Arena hosted a private media luncheon today to announce the return of 2016 Olympic bronze medalist Nico Hernandez for his third professional fight on IS-SIBT, Settembru 23, headlining “KO Lejl Boxing: Step Up!” fil Hartman Arena fil-Park Belt, Kansas.
“KO Lejl Boxing: Step Up!” hija preżentazzjoni ta KO Lejl Boxing LLC., f'assoċjazzjoni ma Hartman Arena, Mort’s Cigar Bar and Jimmy Egg.
Wichita-native Hernandez (2-0, 2 Kos) will face the stiffest test of his young pro career, Mexican flyweight Francisco “Warrior” Lapizco (8-5, 2 Kos), in the six-round main event.
“I’m very fortunate that my promoter, John Andersen(KO Lejl Boxing), has worked hard to make my third pro fight at home,” Hernandez said. “I’m very excited to be able to show boxing at its best.
“My opponent has never been stopped. Ovvjament, he has more professional experience than me, and I understand he likes putting pressure on his opponent. I want to be the first to stop this guy! I also want the boxing world to know I’m coming for belts. Champions should get ready for Nico Hernandez.”
In his professional debut on March 25th, Hernandez knocked out Patrick Gutierrez fir-raba 'round, and this past June 17th at Hartman Arena, the 21-year-old U.S. Olympian stopped previously undefeated Jose Rodriguez in the third round of the main event.
Lapizco, 22, has already defeated an unbeaten opponent, Cesar Sustaita (3-0), three years ago at Ontario, California. His last fight was this past January at home in Sinaloa, Messiku, in which Lapizco won a six-round unanimous decision over Jairo Miranda.
“This fight is a step up for Nico against a proven opponent who goes rounds,” Andersen noted. “He has already upset an undefeated fighter. It’s time for Nico to step up, as well as the city of Wichita, in terms of supporting him. This is a major event on September 23rd that will bring national attention, not only for Nico, but to Wichita.
“We have an opportunity to put Nico, all of Kansas, on the national map in boxing. We have a multi-fight deal to showcase Nico at Hartman Arena. After the September 23rd juru, we’ll announce his final fight of 2017. We need people to turnout September 23rd at Hartman Arena to continue promoting Nico at home.”

Nico Hernandez (R) battered Jose Rodriguez in a one-sided contest
The 21-year-old Hernandez (2-0, 2 Kos) came out fast, rapidly firing combinations that consistently landed to his opponent’s head and body. Hernandez was as electric in the ring as the sky outside, battering the over-matched Rodriguez, finally dropping him midway through the second round.
The extremely sharp Hernandez floored Rodriguez again in the third with a right-left combination but the tough Mexican rose again. The onslaught continued briefly as the Olympian pounded Rodriguez (2-1, 2 Kos), knocking him down for the third time and final time as referee Kevin Champion counted him out at 2:38.
“I came out with a victory, it can’t get better than that,” Hernandez said after the fight. “I put him down a few times. I was happy with my performance. I was trying to get out of her to celebrate with my family and friends.

“I didn’t expect him to keep coming, getting up and still coming forward. I’ll talk to my promoter and coaches and see what’s next.”

Nico Hernandez celebrated his triumph at home in front of family and friends

Local favorite Noel Esqueda (7-3-2, 5 Kos), of Wichita, was unable to handle Mexican junior middleweight Limberth “El Gallito” Ponce (13-3, 9 Kos), fighting out of Quad Cities (IL), in the co-featured event The two fighters fought mostly on the inside as Ponce effectively landed overhand rights on his way to a six-round unanimous decision,
Kansas featherweight rivals Eric Vargas (3-0, 1 KO), of Garden City, and Winfield’s pro-debuting Humberto “Tito” Tellez (0-1) had fans screaming from start to finish in an entertaining match. The stronger Vargas outworked the game Tellez through most of their action-packed fight to earn a hard-fought win by four-round majority decision.
In the television opener, pro-debuting Kansas super middleweights Eddie Chavez (0-1), of Wichita, and Garden City’s Luis Fernando Juanez Jasso (1-0, 1 KO) went toe-to-toe from the opening bell until there was one minute left in the opening round, when Jasso suddenly dropped Chavez with a punishing right. Chavez beat the count but he was hurting. Jasso trapped Chavez on the ropes and unloaded seven unanswered punch until Chavez took a knee and referee Champion immediately stepped in to stop the fight.
Pro-debuting Brian Clements (0-0-1), fighting out of Topeka (KS), and Garden City veteran Bryant Montalvo (1-9-1) fought to a four-round draw in a back-and-forth contest.
Winfield (KS) heavyweight dawl “The Prince” Juan Hollingsworth (1-0-1, 1 KO) and pro-debuting Matt Dixon (0-0-1), tal Tulsa (OK), fought to an entertaining four-round split draw in the opening bout of the evening.
