Mashantucket, CT (Lipanj 4, 2017) – The amazing comeback of Matt “Sharp Shooter” Remillard continued last night as the popular Connecticut lightweight stopped Fatiou Fassinou u Broadway Boks headliner held in Fox Theater, u kazinu Foxwoods Resort, in Mashantucket, CT.
The Broadway Boks series is promoted by DiBella Entertainment and presented by Nissan of Queens, Azad Watches, OPTYX, and Christos Steak House.
Remillard, 30, was the No. 2-ranked featherweight in the world in 2011, when he lost to future world champion Mikey Garcia (LRTD11). Fighting out of Manchester, CT, tonight’s fight was Remillard’s first in his home state in six-and-a-half years, due to him serving a five-year prison sentence. He returned to the ring this past April, taking an eight-round decision from Agustine Mauras, u Worcester, MA.
U krugu otvaranja, Remillard (25-1, 14 Kos) and the slick Benin-native, former WBC International Silver champion Fassinou (27-6-3, 14 Kos) got to know each other as both fighters were cautious. Remillard opened up in the second round, using his left to the body, dropping Fassinou in his corner during the final seconds. Remillard pressed the action in the third, peppering Fassinou around the ring in his familiar punishing style, putting Fassinou in his “Sharp Shooter” sights for target practice in the fourth. Fassinou failed to answer the bell for the fifth round.
“Against a southpaw, the left hook to the liver is there, a punch I’m known for,” Remillard commented after the fight. “He was a little sloppier than I expected. Osjećao sam se dobro; Ja sam 24/7 in the gym. Maybe I’ll have one more fight this year to get in some rounds, and then get ready for a big 2018. I want a rematch with Garcia, na 135 ili 140 funti, 100-posto. He owes me a rematch. The guy he beat wasn’t me.”
Ruslan Shamalov (L) & George Arias turned in the Fight of the Night
U suradnji značajke, two New York City-based heavyweights, 6’5″ Ruski Ruslan Shamalov (4-1, 3 Kos) and Dominican “Gentleman” George Arias (7-0, 3 Kos), fighting out of Brooklyn and the Bronx, odnosno, put their undefeated records on the line. Shamalov’s power punches rocked the much shorter 5’11” Arias in the first round, but Arias stayed off the ropes and boxed much better in the second. The two fighters exchanged bombs throughout a terrific third round and, somehow, the fourth was even better with back-and-forth, non-stop action. The pace subsided slightly in the fifth round, setting the stage for a bombs-away sixth and final frame that didn’t disappoint.
Shamalov and Arias fought a furious pace, especially for heavyweights, in a legitimate six-round “Borba godine” kandidat. Arias, the leader of Team Wash Em’ Up in the Bronx, won a six-round unanimous decision by scores of 60-54, 59-55, a 58-56.
“This win was humungous for me,” said an overjoyed Arias, after his first six-round fight. “I had a game plan, but once he hurt me in the first round, my heart took over and I just fought. I like to fight for the people, so I held on in the first instead of taking a knee.”
Mykquan Williams (R) celebrated his high school graduation a little early
Crowd favorite “Veličanstven” Mykquan Williams (7-0, 4 Kos) gave himself an early high school graduation present as the East Hartford fighter defeated Nicaraguan welterweight Ariel “La Guerra” Vasquez (13-18-2, 9 Kos) in the former’s first six-round bout. The 19-year-old Williams, a five-time national amateur champion, is a budding star with tremendous upside. Poised beyond his years, Williams controlled the pace against his battle-tested southpaw opponent, koji je 11 years Williams’ senior, displaying his vast arsenal of punches, especially his left-right combination that landed consistently. Williams’ fast hands exploded for the first time at the end of the second round, then he picked up his assault in the third, as he cruised to a six-round shutout decision, with three tallies of 60-54.
Williams graduates on Lipanj 20 from Prince Tech. “That was a good graduation present,” Williams je rekao. “My hand speed played a big factor. He was a tough guy, especially for my first six-rounder.”
Jennifer salinas (R) had too much for Marquita Lee
pero prvak Jennifer “Bolivijska kraljica” Salinas (20-4, 5 Kos) poražen Marquita Lee (3-5) by way of a hard-fought six-round unanimous decision. Salinas, boreći se Providnosti, was the aggressor throughout, but Lee never took a backward step. Scorecards 59-55 dvaput, a 58-56, all for Salinas.
Fighting a much more experienced and taller opponent from Africa, promising Lynn, MA prospect Khiry “TNT” Todd (5-0, 5 Kos) won his fifth pro fight, sve po nokaut. A 2016 New England Zlatni Rukavice prvak, Todd gained invaluable experience against cagey super welterweight Nicolas Sarouna (12-9-1, 9 Kos), of Togo, who took a knee after getting hit by a sneaky uppercut in the third round. Sarouna failed to beat the 10-count as Todd improved his perfect record, with a TKO stoppage at the 1:32 oznaka.
Radzhab Butaev left Abraham Alvarez on the mat in serious pain

Butaev dropped Alvarez early with a vicious left hook, from which Alvarez never fully recovered. A brutal right to the liver put the Mexican on mat once again, in obvious pain, as referee Joey Lupino immediately waved off the fight at 1:05 okruglog jedan.

Kevin Dever Sport Uprava potpisuje neporažena Kubanski poluteškoj Luis Garcia

(L-R – Kevin Duty, Luis Garcia i Patrick Brown)
Peekskill, NY. (Prosinac 1, 2015) – Kevin Dever Sport Uprava je najavila potpisivanje neporaženi kubanske poluteškoj klubova Luis “Lav” Garcia na ekskluzivnom menadžerskih ugovora.
Prije gotovo osam godina,Garcia (12-0, 9 Kos) prebjegao iz Kube u Meksiko s kolegama boksača Aleksej Acosta. Garcia (12-0, 9 Kos), koji su se naselili u Corku, Irska, made his professional debut in 2008. He now lives in Peekskill, Njujork.
“Bio je to veća promjena kada sam se preselila u Irskoj nego što je bio prije šest tjedana, kada sam se preselio ovdje,” the 28-year-old Garcia explained. “It was a lot harder in Ireland because I didn’t speak a word of English. I learned English from the street, watching TV and reading. It’s not a big change for me to move around because I traveled all over the world when I was a member of the Cuban National Team.”
Garcia nije borio u gotovo četiri godine, zbog prethodnih menadžerske pitanja, ali njegov povratak je planiran ove subote noć, Prosinac 5, against an opponent to be determined in a six-round bout at Barclays Center in Brooklyn. His last fight was a win by eight-round unanimous decision over previously undefeated (12-0) Alexander Johnson prosinca 30, 2011 u Cabazon, Kalifornija.
“Nije to bila moja odluka da ne boriti se posljednje četiri godine,” Garcia added. “Something happened with my now former manager and promoter. I trained all the time, sparred puno, and did as much as I could do in the gym. I still had a contract until it expired. I’ve known Kevin for 2-3 godina. He asked me why I wasn’t fighting and I told him everything. He said to call him when my contract expired because he wanted to manage me and that’s what I did.
“Amerika mi nudi dobru priliku, bolji od Engleske ili Irske, and I’m going to finish my boxing career here. I’m fighting December 5th and taking things step by step. I’m not going to rush. There are a lot of great fighters in the light heavyweight division and I hope to be in the mix next year.”
Garcia je dvije borbe prije njegova posljednja protiv Johnson bili su impresivni 2010 tehničke knockouts bivše svjetski prvak Byron Mitchell (28-6-1) a Jorge Rodriguez Olivera (19-1), odnosno, u drugoj i šestoj rundi.
“Ostavio sam boks s lošim okusom u ustima, ali sam tražio da se vrati u boks,” rekla Kevin Duty, koji je co-upravlja Garcia s Patrick Brown. “I knew him from Ireland and I always wanted to manage this kid. He called to tell me his contract had expired and we worked out a deal that brought him here to live in New York.
“I honestly don’t see any rust watching him spar. I know sparring isn’t fighting but everybody in the gym stops to watch him workout. Ja iskreno mislim da je, nakon što je on ima neke dobre borbe pod pojasom, on će biti glavni kandidat u poluteškoj podjele. Luis Garcia je najbolji borac sam ikad radio.”
Garcia, World juniorsko prvenstvo zlatne medalje, prebjegao jer je razočaran nakon što je odbijen mjesto na 2008 Kubanski olimpijski tim, unatoč ga je porazio eventualne olimpijski srebrne medalje Emelio Correa, Jr. in the Cuban Olympic Qualifier. Correa is the son of 1972 Olimpijski prvak Emelio Correa, Sr., koji je još bio uključen u kubanskom amaterskom boksu, kada je izabran njegov sin preko Garcia predstavljati Kubu u 2008 Olimpijske igre. Correa lost in the championship final to James DeGale, Britanac koji je danas Međunarodni Boks Federacija (IBF) super srednjoj titula.
Nije tipična obrana-prvi kubanski boksač, Garcia je poznat kao oštar sprava za perforiranje da mnogi insajderi vjerovao je više od bilo naopako kubanskih boksača koji su prebjegao, outside of Guillermo Rigondeaux a Yuriorkis Gamboa, koji su i postali više-vremena svjetski prvaci su profesionalci.
Garcia radi iz biti prvi boks u Peekskill i Westchester boks kluba u White Plains (NY), gdje je trenirao od strane Zarez “Zglavci” Delury i njegov pomoćnik, Naslov bivši svjetski izazivač Larry Barnes (44-3, 17 Kos). A former No. 1 rangiran velter kandidat u svijetu, Barnes’ samo tri gubitke kao profesionalac bili svjetski prvaci Feliks “Tito” Trinidad, Saul Mamby a Luis Ramon “Jurij dječak” Kampus.
“On je sjajan dečko, jako pametna i poštovanja,” Delury komentirao. “Tu je neki rđa od toga off četiri godine, ali Luis živi dobro, healthy lifestyle and he hasn’t suffered any damage in the ring. On je 28, obrazovan, and a true gentleman. It’s been a pleasure working with him. Luis is a gifted boxer. He’s extremely exciting to watch and has a perfect blend of offense and defense.”
