“Futur 5 ġdid Ingilterra”
Frar. 10 Worcester, MA

WORCESTER, Massa. (Jannar 24, 2018) – One of New England’s leading pro prospects, welterweight junior Omar Bordoy, Jr, has prepared to make a statement February 10th fi “Futur 5 ġdid Ingilterra”, presented Rivera Promotions Entertainment (RPE), fil Il Palladium Worcester.
Fighting out of Danbury, Connecticut, Bordoy (3-0, 1 KO) faces Puerto Rican-born opponent, Alexander “el Bravo” Picot (2-4-1), in a four-round bout. “My opponent is tough, and he always comes to fight,” Bordoy said. “He keeps coming forward and that’s going to make for an exciting fight.”
The 22-year-old Bordoy is the typical example of a volatile teenager who found his way in boxing. He was a high school football player who started boxing at the age of 17. Bordoy had an abbreviated amateur career, highlighted by his winning performance at the New England Golden Gloves as a novice boxer.
“I was a bad hot head as a kid,” Bordoy admitted. “Ġurnata waħda, my cousin Edgardo, invited me to his gym after football practice and he beat me up. I was knocked down a few notches. I got into boxing and enjoyed watching Miguel Cotto u Mike Tyson. I even have some of Cotto’s tattoos. Issa, I’m more of a boxer, like a Pernell Whitaker jew Floyd Mayweather, Jr. I’m a come- forward boxer who can still brawl. I’m working on my defense and feel that making adjustments in the ring is what I do best.”
Bordoy, Jr. credits Team Bordoy — maniġer A.J. Galante, trainer ras Bennie Little, cut-man Luis Marichal, strength-and-conditioning coach Chris Mulfalmi u Dave McDonough – for his success.
“I’m pleased to be with the right people to bring me to the top and I’m willing to do what’s needed to get there,” Bordoy added.
Bordoy, who works fulltime as a repair technician, made his pro debut last May and he fought a total of three times in 2017, his most recent last October in Worcester on an RPE-promoted show, in which he stopped 34-fight veteran Bryan Abraham fir-raba 'round.
“We enjoy working with Team Bordoy,” promotur Jose Antonio Rivera remarked. “I am proud of Omar and his accomplishments so far. He is a young, throwback fighter with a lot of potential. I see big things in his future and I am glad to see he is being guided in the right direction by his team.”
In the eight-round main event, undefeated Hartford (CT) heavyweight dawl Richard “Popeye Il Sailor Man” Rivera (5-0, 4 Kos) jieħu fuq Kevin “Il buli New England” Cobbs (10-2, 4 Kos), fighting out of South Boston (MA), għall-Federazzjoni vakanti Boxing Universali (UBF) titolu New England fil-każ prinċipali tmien round.

Evander Holyfield & Luis Collazo Ring 8’s Special Guest Speakers

Ħalli kumment
It-Tlieta, Novembru. 21 at O’Neill’s Restaurant
In Maspeth, NY
NEW YORK (Novembru 15, 2017)) – Sala ta 'Famer Evander “Deal Real” Holyfield and former world welterweight champion Luis Collazo will be special guest speakers at Ring 8’s next monthly meeting,It-Tlieta lejl, Novembru 21, at O’Neill’s Restaurant (64-21 53rd Drive) in Maspeth, New York,
Because a large crowd is expected, only Ring 8 members will be allowed to attend this meeting, but membership may be obtained at the door for those interested in joining Ring 8.
“Evander Holyfield is one of the few living legends in our sport,” Ring 8 president Jack Hirsch qal. “Allura, you can imagine how thrilled we are to have him as a guest speaker. We had planned to present Holyfield with the Ring 8 Legends Award at our holiday banquet, but a lucrative business opportunity will prohibit him from being there that afternoon. Minflok, we will present him with that award at O’Neil’s. It says a lot about Evander that he adjusted his schedule to remain in New York to attend our meeting.
“Luis Collazo is a terrific fighter in his own right, having been a former world champion. His career seems to be on an upswing once again and we are anxious to hear about his future plans.”
Holyfield has retired as a boxer with an outstanding 44-10-2 (29 Kos), but this past year he has operated a New York City-based promotional company, Real Deal Boxing. A U.S. Olympian, Holyfield is the only unified world cruiserweight champion, as well as a four-time heavyweight champion of the world.
He had a 16-7-2 record in world title fights and won 19 ta 30 fights with two draws against past or present world champions, defeating a Who’s Who list of all-time greats such as Dwight Muhammad Qawi, George Foreman, Larry Holmes, Riddick Bowe u Mike Tyson (darbtejn), fost l-notables aktar.
Born in Brooklyn and now a resident of Queens, Collazo (37-7. 20 Kos) captured the World Boxing Association (WBA) welterweight world title on April 2, 2005, winning a 12-round split decision over hometown favorite and defending champion Jose Antonio Rivera Worcester, Massachusetts.
The 26-year-old Collazo, who has also defeated world champions Miguel Angel Gonzalez u Victor Ortiz, remains a world title contender having upset 21-1 Sammy Vasquez in his last action by way of a sixth-round knockout last February.
