Mashantucket, CT (Júní 4, 2017) – The amazing comeback of Matt “Sharp Shooter” Remillard continued last night as the popular Connecticut lightweight stopped Fatiou Fassinou í því Broadway Boxing headliner held in Fox Theater, at Foxwoods Resort Casino, in Mashantucket, CT.
The Broadway Boxing series is promoted by DiBella Entertainment and presented by Nissan of Queens, Azad Watches, OPTYX, and Christos Steak House.
Remillard, 30, var nr. 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, í Worcester, MA.
Í opnun umferð, 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. Mér fannst gott; Ég er 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, á 135 eða 140 £, 100-prósent. He owes me a rematch. The guy he beat wasn’t me.”
Ruslan Shamalov (L) & George Arias turned in the Fight of the Night
Í samstarfi lögun, two New York City-based heavyweights, 6’5″ rússneska, Rússi, rússneskur Ruslan Shamalov (4-1, 3 Kos) and Dominican “Gentleman” George Arias (7-0, 3 Kos), fighting out of Brooklyn and the Bronx, sig, 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 “Fight ársins” frambjóðandi. Arias, the leader of Team Wash Em’ Up in the Bronx, won a six-round unanimous decision by scores of 60-54, 59-55, og 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 “Marvelous” 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, sem er 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 Júní 20 from Prince Tech. “That was a good graduation present,” Williams sagði. “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
featherweight champion Jennifer “The Bolivian Queen” Salinas (20-4, 5 Kos) ósigur Marquita Lee (3-5) by way of a hard-fought six-round unanimous decision. Salinas, berjast af Providence, was the aggressor throughout, but Lee never took a backward step. Scorecards 59-55 tvisvar, og 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, allt eftir knockout. A 2016 New England Golden Gloves meistari, 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 merkja.
Radzhab Butaev left Abraham Alvarez on the mat in serious pain
Unbeaten Russian middleweight prospect Radzhab “The Python” Butaev (6-0, 4 Kos) was too much for Mexican Abraham “The Swift” Alvarez (20-11-1, 11 Kos). 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 af umferð einn.
Cuban cruiserweight Luis “El Leon” Garcia (15-0, 12 Kos) kept his perfect pro record intact with a first-round knockout of his outclassed Mexican opponent Felipe Romero (19-14-1, 13 Kos), að berjast úr San Diego. Now living in Peekskill, NY, Garcia dropped Romero with an overhand right in the opening seconds and he never let up, consistently hurting Romero with a series of devastating rights. Garcia closed the show with a powerhouse uppercut, leading referee Johnny Callas to halt the action at the 1:48 merkja.
Three-time Puerto Rican National Boxing team member Jose Roman (4-0, 3 Kos) went the distance for the first time against a game William Hill (2-3), af Detroit.

Kevin Dever Sports Management undirritar Undefeated Kúbu ljós þungavigtar Luis Garcia

Skildu eftir athugasemd
(L-R – Kevin Duty, Luis Garcia og Patrick Brown)
Peekskill, N.Y.. (Desember 1, 2015) – Kevin Dever Sports Management hefur tilkynnt um undirritun undefeated Kúbu ljós þungavigtar horfur Luis “The Lion” Garcia að sérstakri stjórnunar samning.
Næstum átta árum,Garcia (12-0, 9 Kos) Lagið frá Kúbu til Mexíkó með náungi Boxer Alexei Acosta. Garcia (12-0, 9 Kos), sem settust að í Cork, Írland, made his professional debut in 2008. He now lives in Peekskill, New York.
“Það var stærri breyting þegar ég flutti til Írlands en það var sex vikum þegar ég flutti hingað,” 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 hefur ekki barist í næstum 4 ár vegna fyrri stjórnunarstörfum málefni, en áætlað endurkomu hans er laugardag nótt, Desember 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 desember 30, 2011 í Cabazon, California.
“Það var ekki mín ákvörðun að berjast á undanförnum fjórum árum,” Garcia added. “Something happened with my now former manager and promoter. I trained all the time, sparred mikið, 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 ár. 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.
“America býður mér gott tækifæri, betri en Englandi eða Írlandi, 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.”
Tveir berst Garcia fyrri til hans síðasta móti Johnson var áhrifamikill 2010 tæknilegar knockouts fyrrverandi heimsmeistari Byron Mitchell (28-6-1) og Jorge Rodriguez Olivera (19-1), sig, í annarri og sjötta umferðir.
“Ég fór á box með slæmt bragð í munni mínum, en ég var að leita að komast aftur inn í box,” sagði Kevin Duty, sem samstarf stýrir Garcia með 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. Ég held nefnilega að, þegar hann hefur sumir góður slagsmál undir belti hans, hann verður að vera efst keppinautur í ljós þungavigtar deild. Luis Garcia er besti bardagamaður sem ég hef unnið með.”
Garcia, World Junior Championship gullverðlaunahafi, Lagið vegna þess að hann var vonsvikinn eftir að hafa verið neitað blettur á 2008 Kúbu Olympic Team, þrátt hann sigra endanlega Olympic silfur Minnispeningur Emelio Correa, Jr. in the Cuban Olympic Qualifier. Correa is the son of 1972 Olympic meistari Emelio Correa, Sr., sem var enn þátt í Kúbu áhugamaður box þegar sonur hans var valinn yfir Garcia tákna Kúbu í 2008 Olympics. Correa lost in the championship final to James DeGale, Brit sem nú er International Boxing Federation (IBF) frábær middleweight titlist.
Ekki dæmigerður varnar- fyrst Kúbu Boxer, Garcia er þekktur sem skörpum puncher sem margir innherjar talið hafði meira kosti en allir Kúbu Boxer sem hefur Lagið, outside of Guillermo Rigondeaux og Yuriorkis Gamboa, sem bæði hafa orðið margar sinni heimsmeistarar sem fagfólk.
Garcia er að vinna úr Vertu fyrstur box í Peekskill og Westchester Boxing Club í White Plains (NY), þar sem hann er þjálfaður af Nick “Knuckles” Delury og aðstoðarmaður hans, fyrrum veröld titill Challenger Larry Barnes (44-3, 17 Kos). A former No. 1 raðað welterweight keppinautur í heimi, Barnes’ aðeins þremur tap sem atvinnumaður var að heimsmeistarar Felix “Tito” Trinidad, Saul Mamby og Luis Ramon “Yuri Boy” Campus.
“Hann er frábær strákur, mjög klár og virðingu,” Delury athugasemd. “Það er einhver ryð frá því að vera burt fjórum árum, en Luis býr góður, healthy lifestyle and he hasn’t suffered any damage in the ring. Hann er 28, menntuðu, 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.”
