Jose Antonio Rivera Dedicates “Quest For 50” to Worcester Boys & girls Club

Toukokuu 17, 2019 FNU47 Jätä kommentti

(L-R) – Jose Antonio Rivera, current WBC Youth super lightweight champion Jermaine Ortiz
(11-0, 6 KOs) and Carlos Garcia

WORCESTER, MASS (Toukokuu 16, 2019) – Kolme-aika, kaksi-divisioonan maailmanmestari “Gallo” Jose Antonio Rivera is dedicating his 50^th pro fight, the last in his hometown of Worcester, to the Boys & Girls Club in Worcester, Massachusetts. A portion of the proceeds from “Quest For 50,” presented by Shearns Boxing Promotions (SBP) and Rivera Promotions Entertainment, will benefit the Boys & girls Club.

The 46-year-old Rivera (42-6-1, 25 KOs) faces former WFC champion **Travis “Sweet Feet” Scott** (19-5, 5 KOs), of Baton Rouge, Louisiana, in the eight-round main event at The Palladium in Worcester.

Rivera, a full-time court officer in Worcester, has had a special relationship for more than 30 years with the Worcester Boys & Girls Club and its director of boxing, **Carlos Garcia**, joka on “The Godfather of Worcester Boxing.”

Rivera moved to Worcester from Springfield 30 years ago at the age of 16 to pursue a boxing career, which included being coached by Garcia. Rivera had siblings and other relatives living in Worcester and after living with an aunt for a month, Jose moved into an apartment with another boxer, four-time national amateur champion **Bobby Harris**.

“The Worcester Boys & Girls Club helped me stay off the streets so I could focus on my dream of becoming world champion,” Rivera remembered. “It was a place for me and so many others to go and be safe. Kids, not just boxers, can be kids there, where they don’t have to worry about what’s happening in the streets.

“Carlos has played a tremendous part of my life and so many others, influencing us not only to become good boxers, but to be good people in the community. That was always so important to him and he emphasized being a good person. Tein parhaani. He was always fair across the board and gave us all opportunities. He took a liking to me and brags that he never had to throw me out of the Boys & girls Club. I graduated from high school and went after my dream in 1992 when I turned pro. Carlos is big in amateur boxing, but not so much with pros, because he doesn’t have the time to train pros. I made sure that when turned pro, tough, that he was part of my team. And he’s still a big part of my team and life.”

The number of Worcester youths Garcia has had a positive effect on, life-changing in many respects, is countless. One of those many people is Jose’s longtime friend and his current head trainer, **Sean Fitzgerald**, who retired as a boxer in 2001 kanssa 29-2-2 pro-ennätys. “Fitzy” remembers the fir time he read the sign over the door in the gym at the Boys & girls Club: “Better to seat than bleed.”

Fitzy lived with his father when his parents divorced and at the age of 10, his father sent him to the Boys & Girls Club to attend an after-school program. “Fitzy” said he had to earn his way into Garcia’s good graces.

“Carlos didn’t talk to me for the first 5-6 viikkoa,” Fitzgerald explained. “Sitten, he put me in the ring as a sparring partner, and I was badly beaten. I had a bloody nose and black eye, but the next day I came back, and the rest is history. Carlos was a great mentor, rough at times, but always there for you. I remember seeing the boxing team jackets. It intrigued me. When I got my jacket and started wearing it, I got respect from everybody, and then I knew that I belonged. I learned a lot about life at the Boys & girls Club, being with there with people from different generations and cultures. I met many friends there who I never would have met.

“The Boys & Girls Club is safe. I was from a tough area in Worcester. My father worked and it was easy to get in trouble with no supervision. Carlos stayed on top of me to graduate from school and if I was home sick, he come buy with chicken soup to make sure I was alright. My father was in my life big-time, but I joke that I had two moms growing up, my father and Carlos. Going to the Boys & Girls Club was something to look forward to every day.

“Carlos always taught us to never make the mistakes he did in life. He wanted us to go to school, stay out of trouble, and be a good person. He’s helped so many people over the years. Look around Worcester and you’ll see them: police and court officers, fire fighters, and so many others. The Boys & Girls Club was a great experience for me and so many other kids from Worcester.”

(L-R) – Ray Semidei, Carlos Garcia and Jose Antonio Rivera

Garcia has been the director of boxing at the Worcester Boys & Girls Club since 1982. Two year ago, Garcia was inductred into the National Golden Gloves Hall of Fame.

“Never in his life has Jose even raised his voice to me,” Garcia commented. “He treats me like his father and he’s like one of my sons. There aren’t not too many guys like him and he’s so well respected in the community. He came to Worcester from Springfield to train with ne and stayed with me. Jose helps everyone and now he’s promoting to help local boxers.

“We’re at the Boys & Girls Club to and that’s the way it really is here. It’s so good to see so many in this community who’ve gone through our boxing program and are good people, good husbands, good parents. It makes me feel so proud. ‘Fitzy’ was a hyper kid. He’s a real gentleman who now does so much for kids here. I’ve never had a signed contract with any of the pro boxers I’ve worked with because I trust them.”

**Perjantai, MAY 10 AT MGM SPRINGFIELD**

**NABA SUPER FEATHERWEIGHT CHAMPION, ABRAHAM NOVA**
**TO RETURN IN MAIN EVENT**

**UNDEFEATED PROSPECTS, CARLOS GONGORA, WILLIAM FOSTER III & LUIS ARCON DIAZ TO APPEAR**

**TICKETS ON SALE NOW AT** WWW.MURPHYSBOXING.COM

Boston, Massachusetts (Huhtikuu 17, 2019):

Murphys Boxing is proud to announce that the debut event in their new partnership with **UFC Fight Pass** järjestetään **Perjantai, Toukokuu 10, 2019** Springfield, Massachusetts at **MGM Springfield**.

Päätapahtuma, voittamaton **NABA Super Featherweight Champion**, **Abraham Nova**(14-0, 10 KOs) will return in a 10 round super featherweight bout against an opponent to be announced.

Nova, who hails from nearby Albany, New York, recently entered the **WBA’s Top 10 Rankings** and will be making his highly anticipated 2019 debut under the Murphys Boxing banner. After an amateur career that saw ‘Super’ go 167-11 and win multiple national titles, Nova has been on the fast track as a professional having fought an unheard of 11 times in the past two years.

“I truly feel I am ready to take on anyone in the Top 10.”, explains the confident young fighter who just celebrated his 25th birthday in January.

“I hope to be in position for a mandatory shot at the WBA world title by the end of the year. I am staying focused, having a great training camp and I intend to make a statement to the rest of the division on May 10th.”

In dual co-features, two undefeated boxers from the Murphys Boxing stable will see action on the card that will stream live exclusively on UFC Fight Pass, the world’s largest subscription service for combat sports.

**NABF Jr. Featherweight Champion**, **William Foster III** (9-0, 6 KOs), who fought 5 kertaa 2018, will enter the ring for the second time this year against an opponent to be named in a 6 round junior featherweight bout. Vain 25 vuotias, the New Haven, Connecticut resident, whose older brother is Murphys Boxing’s own undefeated **NABA Light Heavyweight Champion**, **Charles Foster**, is fast becoming one of New England’s most talked about prospects displaying the rare combination of power and speed only seen in elite level fighters.

Power punching prospect, **Carlos Gongora** (15-0, 12 KOs) will take on Argentina’s **Damien Ezequiel Bonelli** (23-6, 20 KOs) in an 8 round middleweight bout. The 2x Olympian from Ecuador won the **WBC South American Middleweight Title** this past February in his native country against then undefeated **Jesus Aviles** with a highlight reel KO.

Gongora, who is on the cusp of a world ranking, is in talks for his national television debut this summer and is hoping a big win against a fellow power puncher like Bonelli will seal the deal.

In keeping with the event’s international spirit, Murphys Boxing latest signing, **Luis Arcon Diaz** (6-0, 6 KOs), an undefeated **Jumalainen** from Venezuela will return to action against Argentina’s **Jose Aubel** (8-3, 7 KOs) vuonna 6 round welterweight bout. Diaz who made his east coast debut last month against Zach Ramsey, looked sensational, dropping the usually durable veteran multiple times before scoring a second round stoppage to continue his KO streak.

Representing the Boston area, **James Perella** (2-0, 2 KOs), who turned professional last month on Murphys Boxing’s **St. Patrickin päivän törmäys** and followed up his knockout debut just two weeks later on Murphy’s **Mayhem at Melrose** kortti, will look to make it 3 straight KOs when he takes on an opponent to be named in a 4 round welterweight bout.

Rounding out the card will be two of Springfield’s own, kevyt, **Calixto Cruz** (1-0) ja välisarjan **DJ Whitley** (4-1-1) who will both appear in separate 4 round contests against opponents to be named.

“We’re incredibly excited to make our debut on UFC Fight Pass. Dana (White) is a good friend and we’re thankful that he’s taken notice of the incredible roster of fighters that Murphys Boxing currently has.”, says Murphys Boxing founder, **Ken Casey**.

“We’re excited to have a platform for combat sports fans around the world to experience the thriving boxing scene we have created here in New England and to introduce them to several fighters, like Abraham Nova, who we feel will be world champions. To promote the first ever boxing event to be held at an incredible venue like MGM Springfield and to have it air live as our debut on UFC Fight Pass is going to make for a historic night for Murphys Boxing.”

*Tony DeMarco at his statue dedication in Boston’s North End.*

Boston, Massachusetts (Maaliskuu 22, 2019):

Coming off the heels of the sold out **4th Annual St. Patrickin päivän törmäys** which has amassed over **225,000** online views, **Murphys Nyrkkeily** is proud to announce the creation of the **Warrior’s Code Award** to celebrate the achievements of New England’s most legendary boxers.

The award’s first recipients will be **2019 International Boxing Hall of Fame** indusoitunut,**Tony DeMarco** and one of Massachusetts’ most decorated amateur boxers, **Mike D’Ampolo**.

Both fighters will be presented with their awards next **Perjantai, March 29th** at the Murphys Boxing event at **Memorial Hall** sisään **Melrose, Massachusetts**.

At **87 vuotias**, Tony DeMarco holds the distinction of being **boxing’s oldest living world champion** and has been a beloved figure in the Boston sports world for over half a century.

Known as ‘Nardo’, the Boston fighter of Italian descent, turned pro unbelievably just a few years after the end of World War II. Jonkin sisällä 14 year career, DeMarco went 52-12-1 while fighting during boxing’s golden age. His legendary battles with Hall of Famers like **Carmen Basilio** ja **Kid Gavilin** made DeMarco a star and he won the **welterweight world title** sisään 1955 vastaan **Johnny Saxton** at the original Boston Garden in a fight that was voted one of **Boston’s Top 10 Sports Moments**.

DeMarco, who still can be found ringside at Murphys Boxing events and whose statue resides in Boston’s North End where he still lives, will receive the long overdue honor of joining the International Boxing Hall of Fame as a 2019 inductee this June.

“Murphys Boxing has always been very welcoming to me and my family.”, explains DeMarco.

“They have a true respect for boxing’s history. It’s an honor to be given their first ever award just months before entering the International Boxing Hall of Fame. I am looking forward to the evening.”

Joining DeMarco will be Melrose’s own, Mike D’Ampolo, who is considered one of the most successful amateurs ever to come out of the state of Massachusetts.

D’Ampolo was a New England Golden Gloves Champion, a **3x New England AAU Champ**, a **2x Eastern Regional Champion** and participated in the **1984 Olympic Trials**barely missing a spot on the legendary **1984 USA Olympic Team** with his weight class ultimately being represented by none other than **Evander Holyfield**.

On advice from his father, D’Ampolo made the decision to not enter the professional ranks and went onto become a successful businessman with his company, M&L Transit Systems based out of his hometown of Melrose, Massachusetts.

“I’m humbled. Back when we were fighting, there wasn’t much recognition or credit given to amateurs.”, says D’Ampolo.

“I used to be in the paper back then but it’s been a long time and I’m just very grateful to Murphys Boxing for remembering and honoring me here in my hometown.”

Murphys Boxing founder, **Ken Casey** explains the promotion’s decision to name Demarco and D’Ampolo as the first two recipients of the award named after one of the Dropkick Murphy’s signature songs, “The Warrior’s Code” which is a tribute to another New England boxing hero, **Micky Ward**.

“The idea stemmed from Tony DeMarco finally being inducted into the Boxing Hall of Fame. We wanted to celebrate Tony at one of our local shows before his big day and in talking we realized their were so many other retired New England based fighters both professional and amateur that, like Tony, deserved more recognition.”

“The Warrior’s Code Award is a way for us to honor those locally who have come before us and given so much to the sport we love. Boston and beyond has such a rich boxing history, it’s important for Murphys Boxing to respect and honor that as well as educate a new generation about these warriors that have paved the way.”

The presentation of **Murphys Boxing’s 1st Annual Warrior’s Code Award** will take place during the Murphys Boxing “Mayhem in Melrose” event next Friday, March 29th which features the return of Stoneham’s **Greg Vendetti** (20-3-1, 12 KOs) vs. **Manny Woods** (16-8-1, 6 KOs) vuonna 10 round main event as well as a packed undercard of Massachusetts based fighters including:

Quincy’s **Ryan Kielczweski** (29-4, 11 KOs) vs. **Nick Otieno** (31-15, 13 KOs).

USA Boxing Alumni Association Profile: Johannes “Quietman” Ruiz

Maaliskuu 14, 2019 FNU47 Jätä kommentti

From the projects to owning boxing’s ultimate crown

COLORADO SPRINGS, Kierros. (Maaliskuu 12, 2019) – From the projects to owning arguably the most respected individual title in sports, **Johannes “Quietman” Ruiz** remains the only Latino to capture the coveted world heavyweight title.

Ruiz, 47, is a proud Puerto-Rican American boxer who grew-up in a Chelsea, Massachusetts. The two-time World Boxing Association (WBA) heavyweight champion, defeated USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Famer **Evander Holyfield** in the second of their three title fights, to secure for the first time, the world heavyweight crown.

Koristeltu amatööri nyrkkeilijä, Ruiz compiled a 50-5 ennätys, similar to his final pro record of 44-9-1 (30 KOs) välillä 1992-2010, including gold- medal performances at the All-New England Championships, USA Boxing National Championships and the Los Angeles Olympic Festival, which elevated him to the No. 1 light heavyweight position in the United States ratings.

Ruiz was also an outstanding all-around athlete at Chelsea High, particularly in football, in which he was an all-star. He started boxing at the age of seven, eventually developing his skills at the Somerville Boxing Club.

“Boxing was the only sport I figured I’d have a good chance of succeeding,” Ruiz (pictured here on far left) explained why he pursued boxing as opposed to football or another team sport. “The other sports you had to go to college, and I didn’t have the grades.”

Ruiz never looked back and no boxer ever got more out of their God-given skills than him. After winning his first tournament (PAL in New Jersey), he became part of the USA Team that traveled to Sweden to compete in a dual-meet.

“Outside of Puerto Rico (he lived there for 6-7 years in his early youth),” Ruiz remembered fondly. “I had never traveled outside of the United States. USA Boxing gave me an opportunity to travel there, Australia, Italy and all over the United States. Even more than how those experiences prepared me for the pro ranks, it gave me a taste of life experience, traveling to places I never would have been able to go to on my own. Amateur boxing also gave me structure and confidence in myself for when I turned pro. I also met so many different people, fighters and coaches, from all over the world.”

In addition to his aforementioned victory at the Los Angles Olympic Festival, which qualified him as a Team USA member to compete in the World Championships in Australia (päättynyt 6^th maailmassa), perhaps the highlight of his amateur career was defeating **Torsten May**, the 1992 Olympic gold medal winner from Germany, at a dual meet in Florida.

“My association with John goes back to 1990,” lisä- **Al Valenti**, USA Boxing Special Projects Consultant. “I was thrilled that a local kid was honing his skills in the boxing ring. John made an incredible impact on the National Amateur boxing scene in the early nineties; making it all the way to the Olympic Trials in Worcester (MA). Having been involved in the trials was extra special for me because John was such a great competitor and good kid. Boxing history will have a place for John Ruiz, not many survived 36 rounds with Evander. Being the first Latino World Heavyweight Champion was quite an accomplishment for “Quietman”.

Ruiz turned pro August 20, 1992, winning a four-round unanimous decision over Kevin Parker. During his pro career, he defeated top contemporary names such as Holyfield,**James Thunder**, **Jerry Ballard**, **Fernely Felix**, **Kirk Johnson**, **Fres Oquendo**, **Andrew Golota** ja **Jameel McCline**.

History was made March 3, 2013 Las Vegasissa, when he became only the second fighter to drop Holyfield en route to his WBA title-winning fight by way of a 12-round unanimous decision, earning him instant notoriety as the first Latino to hold the coveted world heavyweight title belt.

“I’m very proud to have accomplished that,” he continued, “but my main goal was to provide for my family and I always maintained that goal. Most fighters don’t succeed, but at the end of the day, that’s what pushed me. I don’t really think about being the only Latino to win the world heavyweight title, mutta, when I hear people talk about it today, Mielestäni, wow, I’m still the only Latino to do that.”

Several years ago, Ruiz opened a gym (Quietman Urheilu Kuntosali) in Medford, MA, not too far from where he grew up in Chelsea and trained in Somerville. It has been a registered club member by USA Boxing since 2012, mutta, vielä tärkeämpää, it’s Ruiz’ way of giving back to amateur boxing.

“I felt there was a need to help more kids and give them an opportunity to get out of the house and do something productive and fun,” Ruiz commented. “They all have a chance to work on self confidence and one could possibly become world champion. I feel obligated to help kids because I remember years ago when I was in the same position. They need guidance. If I didn’t have all the support I did growing up, I wouldn’t have turned out the way I did. I want to help kids understand how to accomplishment their goals.”

Tänään, John lives in Palm City, Florida. He’s a correctional officer for the Martin County Sheriff Department. “Winning the world title twice as a pro was awesome,” Ruiz concluded, “but I definitely enjoyed the amateurs more than the pros, even though I would have loved to have represented the USA in the Olympics. USA Boxing opened up my mind to different things, taking me off the streets of Chelsea to made me feel……special.”

John Ruiz has always preached, “Follow Your Dreams!” and he’s still doing that today.

UNDEFEATED IRISH HEAVYWEIGHT, NIALL KENNEDY ADDED TO MURPHYS BOXING 4TH ANNUAL ST. PATRICK’S DAY CLASH

**KENNEDY JOINS FELLOW COUNTRYMEN, GARY ’SPIKE’ O’SULLIVAN, JOHN JOYCE & NOEL MURPHY ON STACKED HOLIDAY CARD**

**Lauantai, MARCH 16TH AT THE HOUSE OF BLUES IN BOSTON**

***EVENT IS ALMOST SOLD OUT. LIMITED TICKETS*** TÄSTÄ!

Boston (Maaliskuu 4, 2019):

**Murphys Nyrkkeily** is excited to announce that undefeated, Irlannin raskaansarjan, **Niall Kenned**ja (12-0-1, 8 KOs) on lisätty **The 4th Annual St. Patrickin päivän törmäys** joka tapahtuu **Lauantai, March 16th** sisään **Boston, Massachusetts** klo **Bluesin talo**.

One of Murphys Boxing’s most popular fighters, ‘Boom Boom’, is coming off a dominant unanimous decision win this past October when he took the ‘O’ from fellow undefeated heavyweight, Brendan Barrett in a fight broadcast on **DAZN.**

Kennedy’s 2019 debut will fittingly take place at this year’s St. Patrickin päivän törmäys, his third time appearing at the annual event, and he knows firsthand the excitement and energy that comes with it.

“I won the **Massachusetts State Heavyweight Title** on the Murphys Paddys Day show in 2017 and it was an amazing experience. The atmosphere is like nothing I’ve ever witnessed at a boxing event. I’m looking forward to being part of it again.”

Kennedy, despite hailing from Gorey, Ireland where he works full time as a policeman, on taistellut 10 hänen 13 professional fights in the New England area and actually considers Boston his boxing home.

“I’m blessed with the support that I have received from the people of Boston and Massachusetts in general. I have a large family connection in the state who bring out massive support so when it comes to boxing homes, Boston is my first boxing home.”

As for 2019, Kennedy is dead set on upping the competition and even has his eyes on a fellow unbeaten heavyweight who like himself is creating a buzz in a boxing crazed east coast city.

“My goal is always to improve with each fight. I want to be world ranked and fight the top names in the division but I know if that’s going to happen, 2019 has to be a huge year for me. There’s a lot of fighters I want to share the ring with but right now I think myself vs Philadelphia’s **Darmani Rock** is a fight that should and will happen.”

Murphys Boxing founder, **Ken Casey** agrees that 2019 will be a breakout year for Kennedy and that his addition to the St. Patrick’s Day Clash takes the event to a whole new level.

“Niall is one of our most popular fighters and he has huge fights on the horizon. We want to keep him active this year so he can be at his best for what lies ahead. Having an Irish heavyweight on a St. Patrick’s Day show puts this card over the top as one of the best Murphys Boxing has ever done.”

The Saint Patrick’s Day Clash will truly be an Irish heavy affair as Kennedy joins a card that has fellow Murphys Boxing stablemate, Korkki, Irlannin **Gary ‘Spike’ O’Sullivan** (29-3, 20 KOs) in a risky fight against **Khiary Harmaa** (16-4, 12 KOs) as well as the much anticipated all Irish welterweight showdown between Cork, Irlannin **John Joyce** (7-0, 4 KOs) and Lucan, Irlannin **Noel Murphy** (12-1-1, 2 KOs).

Headlining the annual event will be **NABA Junior Middleweight Champion**, Massachusetts’ **Mark DeLuca** (22-1, 13 KOs) who will put his title, and his **toppi 10 world ranking**, on the line against Connecticut’s **Jimmy Williams** (16-1-1, 5 KOs).

Vuonna yhteistyössä päätapahtuma, voittamaton **NABA Light Heavyweight Champion**, Connecticut’sCharles Foster (17-0, 8 KOs) will take on once beaten, Chicago power puncher, **Mike Jiminez** (22-1-2, 14 KOs).

Murphys Boxing’s 4th Annual St. Patrick’s Day Clash takes place on Saturday, March 16th in Boston, Massachusetts at the House of Blues (15 Lansdowne Street). Doors open at 7pm. The night will also feature a special “in ring” acoustic performance by The Dropkick Murphys. Limited tickets are on sale now at:
