Kevin Dever Espò Jesyon siyen Undefeated pwa loud limyè Kiben Luis Garcia

Kite yon kòmantè
(L-R – Kevin Devwa, Luis Garcia ak Patrick Brown)
PEEKSKILL, N.Y.. (Desanm 1, 2015) – Kevin Dever Espò Jesyon te anonse siyen an nan undefeated limyè Prospect Kiben pwa loud Luis “Lion nan” Garcia nan yon kontra san konte gestion.
Prèske uit ane de sa,Garcia (12-0, 9 Ko) defèksyon soti nan Kiba nan Meksik ak parèy boxer Alexei Acosta. Garcia (12-0, 9 Ko), ki moun ki rete nan Cork, Iland, te fè premye pwofesyonèl li nan 2008. Li kounye a ap viv nan Peekskill, New York.
“Se te yon chanjman pi gwo lè m 'demenaje ale rete nan Iland pase sa li te sis semèn de sa lè m' vin viv isit la,” Garcia a 28-zan eksplike. “Li te yon anpil pi difisil nan Iland paske mwen pa t 'pale yon mo nan lang angle. Mwen te aprann angle nan lari a, Gade televizyon ak lekti. Li pa yon gwo chanjman pou mwen pou m deplase paske mwen te vwayaje nan tout mond lan lè mwen te yon manm nan ekip Kiben Nasyonal la.”
Garcia pa te goumen nan prèske kat ane akòz pwoblèm anvan yo gestion, men retounen pwograme l 'se sa a Samdi lannwit, Desanm 5, kont yon advèsè yo dwe detèmine nan yon bout sis-wonn nan Barkley Sant nan Brooklyn. Dènye batay li te yon genyen pa uit-wonn desizyon inanim sou deja defèt (12-0) Alexander Johnson sou Desanm 30, 2011 nan Cabazon, California.
“Li pa t 'pran desizyon m' lan pa al goumen kat ane ki sot pase yo,” Garcia te ajoute. “Yon bagay ki te pase ak manadjè kounye a ansyen mwen ak pwomotè. Mwen antrene tout tan, sparred yon anpil, Ak te fè kòm anpil jan mwen te kapab fè nan jimnastik la. Mwen toujou te gen yon kontra jiskaske li ekspire. Mwen te konnen Kevin pou 2-3 ane. Li te mande m 'poukisa mwen pa t' goumen ak mwen te di l 'tout bagay. Li te di yo rele l 'lè kontra mwen ekspire paske li te vle jere m' ak sa a, se sa ki mwen te fè.
“Amerik ofri m 'yon bon opòtinite, pi bon pase Angletè oswa Iland, Apre sa, mwen pral fini karyè boksè mwen isit la. Mwen ap goumen Desanm 5th ak pran bagay sa yo etap pa etap. Mwen pa pral kouri. Gen yon anpil nan avyon de gè gwo nan divizyon an limyè pwa lou e mwen espere yo dwe nan melanj la ane pwochèn.”
De batay Garcia nan anvan nan dènye l 'kont Johnson te enpresyonan 2010 debouchur teknik nan ansyen chanpyon nan lemonn Byron Mitchell (28-6-1) ak Jorge Rodriguez Olivera (19-1), respektivman, nan jij yo dezyèm ak sizyèm.
“Mwen te kite boksè ak yon gou move nan bouch mwen men mwen te kap jwenn tounen nan boksè,” di Kevin Devwa, ki ko-jere Garcia ak Patrick Brown. “Mwen te konnen l 'soti nan Iland e mwen toujou te vle jere jenn ti kabrit sa a. Li te rele pou di m 'kontra l' te ekspire ak nou te travay soti yon kontra ki te fè l 'isit la yo ap viv nan New York.
“Mwen onètman pa wè okenn rouye ap gade l 'spar. Mwen konnen bòks pa goumen men tout moun nan jimnastik la sispann gade l 'antrennman. Mwen onètman panse ke, yon fwa li gen kèk batay bon anba senti l ', l ap gen yon contender tèt nan divizyon an pwa loud limyè. Luis Garcia se avyon de gè a pi bon mwen te janm te travay avèk yo.”
Garcia, yon Mondyal Junior chanpyona medaye lò, defèksyon paske li te dezapwente apre yo te fin refize yon plas sou mòn lan 2008 Ekip Olympic Kiben, malgre l 'bat evantyèlman Olympic medaye ajan Emelio Correa, Jr. Nan kalifikasyon Olympic Kiben an. Correa se pitit gason an 1972 Olympic chanpyon Emelio Correa, Sr., ki moun ki te toujou patisipe nan boksè amatè Kiben lè yo te chwazi pitit gason l 'sou tout Garcia ki reprezante Kiba nan la 2008 Olympics. Correa pèdi nan chanpyona final la a James DeGale, british nan ki jounen jodi a se boksè Federasyon Entènasyonal (IBF) super titlist middleweight.
Pa yon tipik defans-premye boxer Kiben, Garcia se li te ye kòm yon pèrswa sèk ke anpil Insiders kwè te gen plis tèt pase nenpòt bokseur Kiben ki te defèksyon, deyò nan Guillermo Rigondeaux ak Yuriorkis Gamboyon, ki tou de te vin tounen chanpyon mond miltip nan tan kòm pwofesyonèl.
Garcia ap travay soti nan Fè Premye boksè a nan Peekskill ak Westchester boksè Club nan White Plains (NY), kote l 'resevwa fòmasyon pa Nick “Knuckles” Delury ak asistan li, pwovokatè Tit ansyen mond Larry Barnes (44-3, 17 Ko). Yon ansyen non. 1 klase contender wèltèr nan mond lan, Barnes’ sèlman twa pèt kòm yon pro te chanpyon mond Felix “Tito” Trinidad, Sayil Mamby ak Luis Ramon “Yuri ti gason” Campus.
“Li se yon gwo jenn ti kabrit, trè entelijan e respè,” Delury kòmante. “Genyen kèk rouye nan men yo te koupe kat ane, men Luis ap viv yon bon, mòdvi an sante epi li pa te soufri okenn domaj nan bag la. Li nan 28, edike, Ak yon mesye vre. Li te yon plezi ap travay avè l '. Luis se yon boxer ki gen don. Li trè enteresan pou gade epi li gen yon melanj pafè nan ofans ak defans.”
