ក្រុងប៉ារីសៈ, ប្រទេសបារាំង (ខែមេសា 18, 2021)– European Super Featherweight ChampionSamir Ziani (32-3-1, 7 លើក) has called outTevin “American Idol” Farmer (30-5-1, 6 លើក), former International Boxing Federation World Super Featherweight Champion, to fight June 5លើកទីfor the WBC Silver belt in a World Boxing Council (ស្ថាប័ន WBC) ការលុបបំបាត់ការប្រយុទ្ធ.

According to Ziani’s managerលោក Gary Hyde, was offered the WBC eliminator against Farmer and the Frenchman immediately accepted, while all has been quiet from Farmer.
“”I was excited to fight Farmer on a great Triller show,” Ziani said, “especially because it is my dream to win a World title in the United States. “I am surprised to hear that Farmer has chickened out of our fight, but I suppose je knows his boxing is slipping downwards.
“I want you, Farmer! Accept the fight and be a real warrior. Don’t run away from me. I want to box in the capital of boxing, the United States, to show American fans what I can do. They say you’re a technician, I will show you that I am a true warrior. The ring is for real men with the ambition to beat the best, not box the weakest, ដូច្នេះ, let’s give true value and pay respect to our noble art of boxing.”
Ranked No. 11 ស្ថាប័ន WBC បានដោយ, គ្មានផងដែរ. 9 in the International Boxing Federation (IBF), the 30-year-old Ziani is the reigning EBU European champion, riding a 10-fight win streak. នៅក្នុងការប្រយុទ្ធថ្មីបំផុតរបស់ខ្លួន (ចំនួនប្រាំពីរ. 5, 2020) and second title defense, Ziani dropped a bloodyAlex Dilmaghian (19-1-1) three times en route to a 12លើកទីround win by technical knockout with 9-seconds left in what was a Fight of the Year candidate.

This week we had the pleasure of interviewing Francois Botha, AKA “The White Buffalo.” We discussed his new fitness venture, his hopes to rematch Mike Tyson and how he got his nickname, among a few other topics. សូមស្តាប់នៅទីនេះ:
Worcester, អភិបូជា. (ខែធ្នូ 14, 2020) – Prior to his sensational performance on the recent Mike Tyson-Roy Jones, JR. pay-per-view event, ការរំពឹងទុកទម្ងន់ស្រាលដែលមិនចាញ់Jamaine “The Technician” Ortizwas boxing’s best kept secret. No more, បើទោះបីជា, as Ortiz firmly established himself as a rising star in front of countless fans among the 1.6 million PPV buys.
Ortiz flew from Boston to Los Angeles on Thanksgiving. He was driven to his hotel, where he immediately saw Jones, checked his weight, and walked to Staples Center. “I was comfortable from the start,” said the young fighter who was fighting for the first time as a professional outside of New England. “I was there to get the job done. I was on a mission. I walk to see the Staples Center and that was cool. I later took my run around the Staples Center and there were a lot of statues. It was beautiful. It was cool seeing the Lakers locker-room.”
The 24-year-old Ortiz (14-0, 8 លើក), the reigning World Boxing Youth World champion, គោះចេញSulaiman Segawa (13-3-1, 4 លើក) with a bruising body attack, hurting his opponent in the sixth round, and closing the show in spectacular fashion in the seventh for the vacant World Boxing Council (ស្ថាប័ន WBC) USNBC (U.S) Silver lightweight title. Segawa had never been stopped before as a professional.
Ortiz displayed his overall arsenal: stiff jab, lightning quick hands and feet, switching back and forth effortlessly from orthodox to southpaw stances, punishing hooks up and down, and the most lethal body shots seen from a New Englander since“Irish” Micky Ward.
“I was calm and cool before the fight,” Ortiz added. “I like to go into a fight, បញ្ញាស្មារតី, like it was a sparring session and I always do good. I started out in an orthodox stance, established my jab and used it a lot. I think I should have used it more and could have beaten him with it. I listened to my coach (Rocky Gonzalez) and he told me when to switch. Body punching is the No. 1 thing with Rocky. I may not have shown it nearly as much in other fights, but he drills that into me all the time. In the sixth round, he told me to go more to the body, not looking to catch him, and in the seventh I really hurt him to the body.
“Segawa was definitely tough. He had beaten a lot of guys, including a few he upset. Every fight is a stepping-stone and I’m my worst critic. I felt that I could have knocked him out in the second round, but I didn’t want to go off the game plan
Ortiz set-up Segawa from the opening bell, ការបែកបាក់គាត់ចុះ, and finished the show in grand style as Seqawa was hurt and trapped on the ropes, drawing kudos from highly respected people in the industry such as“Sugar” Ray Leonard, Teddy អាត្លា, and others. Ortiz’ fanbase grew exponentially as boxing fans rushed to sign up to follow Jamaine during and after his breakout fight.
“Once people saw me perform and my style,” Ortiz continued, “they liked me. I could have shown more and thrown more combinations. I really needed to fight in front of the world. I got 5,500 new Instagram flowers that night. I guess, I’m no longer the best kept secret in boxing.”
“Our main goal is to win a world title,” Gonzalez commented. “This was fun and a great opportunity, but the motivation to be world champion is stronger. He dealt with this fight as just another fight, and he followed our game plan.
“His body shots set up the ending. I’m always telling him about Micky Ward’s body shots. You know, boxing is a dance, a salsa. Boxers need to dance; I don’t think they should just be orthodox. They all need to fight the other way and when Jamaine switched stances in the third, he never let up. I’ve trained him hard. I’m always on him and what better way to shut me up than ending it like he did on pay per view? It was a drop the microphone moment!"
Ortiz is promoted byJimmy Burchfield (Classic Entertainment and Sports) and advised byRichard Shappy និងEddie Imondi.
Because of the uncertainty in boxing due to the pandemic, Ortiz’ 2021 schedule is unknown, but he isn’t boxing’s best kept secret anymore, “The Technician” is a bonafide rising star.
Worcester, អភិបូជា. (ខែវិច្ឆិកា 17, 2020) – Undefeated lightweight prospectJamaine “The Technician” Ortiz (13-0, 7 លើក), the reigning World Boxing Youth World champion, hopes to steal the show on the November 28លើកទីMike Tyson-Roy Jones, JR. pay-per-view card, presented by Tyson’s Legends Only League, at Staples Center in Los Angeles.
The 24-year-old Ortiz, fighting out of Worcester, ម៉ាសាឈូសេត, will fight on the undercard against Maryland southpawSulaiman Segawa (13-2-1, 4 លើក) in an 8-round bout for the vacant World Boxing Council (ស្ថាប័ន WBC) USNBC (U.S) lightweight title.
“I feel good and I’m ready,” Ortiz said. “I’m privileged for this opportunity to fight on the Tyson-Jones card and get good exposure. I hope to steal the show. As a kid, I followed them both, especially Jones. I tried to imitate him”
Like all fighters, the COVID-19 pandemic has dramatically affected his career, although he has managed to train, albeit in various gyms and mostly by himself.
“It wasn’t too bad,” added Ortiz, who is an apprentice carpenter. “Not all of the facilities I use to train were open. Early on, I trained by myself, and did a lot of running. We were quarantined until late June, early July, but then I was able to get good sparring. So, ជារួម, it wasn’t too much of a change.”
Ortiz is promoted byJimmy Burchfield (Classic Entertainment and Sports) and advised byRichard Shappy និងEddie Imondi.
“We’re happy our fighter, Jamaine Ortiz, will be getting such great exposure and he will show the world what we already know here in New England,” Shappy commented. “Jamaine ‘The Technician’ Ortiz is a force that will have to be reckoned with.”
Colorado Springs, ភ្លៅ. (ខែមិនា 9, 2020) – By any standards, U.S. Olympian and former unified World heavyweight championRiddick “Big Daddy” Boweis inarguably one of the all-time greatest boxers, amateur និងអាជីព.
Born and raised in the infamous Brownsville section of Brooklyn, ញូវយ៉ក, which also produced fellow World heavyweight championsលោក Mike ថាថៃសុន និងនាង Shannon Briggs បាន, Bowe started boxing at 13 in the Bedford-Stuyvesant Boxing Association Gym.
“I wanted to do everythingលោក Muhammad Ali បានdid,” Bowe explained why he got into boxing. “He was my idol. I wanted to join the Marines, but I fell in love with boxing and stayed with it. I forgot about the Marines.”
Bowe developed his craft and became an outstanding boxer, ការចងក្រងមួយ 104-18 កំណត់ត្រាស្ម័គ្រចិត្ត, highlighted by his controversial silver-medal winning performance at the 1988 Olympic Games in Seoul, ប្រទេសកូរ៉េខាងត្បូង.
A four-time New York Golden Gloves champion, Bowe also captured top honors at the 1986 ជើងឯកពិភពលោកវ័យក្មេង, along with a bronze medal at the 1987 ប៉ានអាមេរិចហ្គេម, despite fighting in his final match with a fractured hand he hid from his coaches.
Bowe had a rivalry withRobert Salters, with whom he split four matches, but he defeated Salters, 3-2, ក្នុង U.S បាន. Box-Offs to qualify for the 1988 USA Boxing Olympic Team. His Olympic teammates includedលោក Roy Jones បាន, JR., លោក Ray Mercer, Kennedy McKinney និងAndrew Maynard.
Controversary surrounded his Olympic championship fight against future World heavyweight champion, Canadian super heavyweightលោក Lennox Lewis បាន, who returned home with the Olympic gold medal. During his fight with Lewis, Bowe was deducted a point for a “ghost” head butt that never happened, and the referee gave Bowe a pair of disputed standing-eight counts, the last of which resulted in the stoppage of the fight in Lewis’ favor.
“That fight never should have been stopped,” Bowe commented. “I’m still happy about winning a silver medal. I still have it. And then I turned pro. My mother had 13 kids and I wanted to make my mother happy. I wanted to buy her a house. That’s what inspired me to box.”
“Bowe’s success as an amateur and professional has made him a household name amongst USA Boxing Alumni,"និយាយថា:Chris Cugliari, USA Boxing Alumni Association Director. “His combination of power and skill, along with his legendary battles with other USA Boxing Alumni at the pro ranks, establishes him as one of the greatest fighters that USA Boxing has ever produced.”
With legendary trainerEddie បាន Futch នៅជ្រុងរបស់គាត់, Bowe became the first truly unified World heavyweight champion, winning the title belt for all four recognized major sanctioning bodies: ស្ថាប័ន WBC, ខ្សែក្រវាត់ WBA, IBF និង WBO.
Bowe retired with an amazing 43-1 (33 លើក) pro record. He had a 5-1 (4 លើក) mark in world title fights, 7-1 (5 លើក) versus past world heavyweight champions such asEvander Holyfield (ពីរដង), Pinklon Thomas, លោក Tony Tubbs, Bruce Seldon, Michael Dokes និងHerbie Hyde.
Bowe later avenged his lone pro loss to Holyfield, winning two of three fights with the “Real Deal.”
“I’m very happy with my pro career,” Bowe added. “I beat Holyfield two times and I think it should have been three. I’m not a sore loser, but I was the World heavyweight champion. How did he win that fight? The challenger needs to take the belt from the champion, and he didn’t do that. I thought I won by a point, at worst, maybe it should have been a draw, but I shouldn’t have lost the fight. I did become the first to ever knockout Holyfield. My pro career wasn’t too bad. I kept working hard and became two-time World heavyweight champion.”
ឥឡូវនេះ 51 and living in Maryland, Bowe has some advice for the American boxers trying to qualify for the 2020 Team USA Boxing Olympic Team.
“Just don’t think about it,” stressed Bowe, sounding like a Nike commercial. “Just do it! It worked for me. I showed up and didn’t think about it. And always finish strong.”
Riddick “Big Daddy” Bowe, who was inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame in 2015, left his mark in amateur and pro boxing. Nobody can ever take that away from the big guy from Brownsville.

Manchester, ហ៊ុគ. (ខែកុម្ភៈ 12, 2020) – Women’s pioneerជែកគី Kallen, the first and arguably most successful female manager in the boxing history, strongly believes unbeaten 21-year-old“Marvelous” Mykquan Williams (15-0-1, 7 លើក) will develop into her sixth world champion.
Williams បាន, fighting out of East Hartford, ភាព CT, is the reigning the World Boxing Council (ស្ថាប័ន WBC) United States super lightweight champion.
“Mykey has a lot of the qualities as some of the greats in boxing,” Kallen said. “He has some of the flash and speed of fighters likeរ៉េលីអូណា, and the training habits and dedication ofThomas Hearns និង លោក Mike ថាថៃសុន. He also has a killer smile and good looks likeHector Camacho, sr.
“Mykey can go all the way to a world title. He has the speed, attitude, and heart, along with exceptional boxing ability. He has been groomed perfectly by his trainer, Paul Cichon, who has kept Mykey true to his style, working hard to perfect his skill. Mykey trains hard, eats right, and takes the game seriously.”
“Jackie’s very experienced and knowledgeable in boxing,” Williams remarked. “She’s worked with some great, world-class fighters, so she knows the route to take for me to get there.”
Cichon added, “I sought out Jackie as our manager because of her love for the sports, as well as the knowledge of that she brings to the table. She’s very well respected, as she certainly deserves to be.”
Boxing has dramatically changed since Kallen covered her first fight for a Detroit daily newspaper in 1978. The card showcased Hearns andMickey Goodwin. She became an instant fan and wrote about boxing on a regular basis. A legendary trainer/manager based in Detroit, Emanuel Steward, hired her as a publicist for his famed Kronk Gym. Some of her best friends to this day are fighters who she worked with back then. She and Hearns still get together.
After serving as Kronk’s publicist for a decade, Kallen decided to branch out and she started managing fighters. Her first client was heavyweightBobby Hitz, who today is a successful promoter and restaurateur in Chicago. She went on to manage a group of Who’s Who fighters, including world championsលោក James Toney, Bronco McKart, Tom “Boom Boom” Johnson, Pinklon Thomas និងNonito Donaire.
Kallen, who overcame sexism in the boxing industry, is best known, ប្រហែលជា, for her working relationship with Toney, largely because her life during that period was the inspiration for the popular 2004 ខ្សែភាពយន្ត, Against the Ropes, starringMeg Ryanas Kallen.
“Boxing today is a totally different animal,” she explained. “That’s not to say it’s better or worse, just different. There used to be more gyms in every city, heavy amateur programs, lots of shows on television networks, and enough local club shows to keep a young fighter active. I had guys back then who fought 8 ទៅ 10 times a year, ដែល, ជាការពិតណាស់, is almost impossible in 2020.
“There wasn’t as much information available on opponents either. If you were lucky, you could buy a tape. If the fighter hadn’t been on television, បើទោះបីជា, you were out of luck. There was no Internet, so there was nothing like BoxRec to check opponents’ records. You just had to believe the matchmaker. I had fighters expecting to fight a 14-4 guy who found out at the weigh in that he was actually 16-0.”
ប្រដាល់, likely the second-oldest profession, has continued to survive, albeit often on a roller-coaster ride.
“Today’s fighters are not as quick to fight each other as they were in the days of Hearns/Hagler/Leonard/Duran,” Kallen noted. “Back then, fighters wanted to really fight to be the best they could be. I see fighters today being more analytical and taking less chances.
“There are also more sanctioning organizations today. Back then it was most the WBA, WBC and IBF. Not to mention there was never one person who managed dozens and dozens of boxers at the same time. The game has definitely changed!"
Kallen, though is still heavily invested in the sport she loves. Confident Williams will be her next world champion, her dream is to be inducted into the Hall of Fame with Toney.
“In 1992,” Kallen concluded, “I was named ‘Manager of the Year’ and my love for the sport has never waned. As long as there is talent out there needing guidance, I will stay active.”
