Липня 18, 2025 FNU47 Залишити коментар

НЬЮ-ЙОРК (Липня 15, 2025) - Триразовий, two-division World ChampionMiyo Yoshida (18-5) is tired of waiting for her mandated International Boxing Federation (IBF) Bantamweight world title shot as its No. 1-rated mandatory challenger.

Yoshida won the World Boxing Organization (WBO) Super Flyweight title in 2019 і 2021. On December 9, 2022, she fought in San Francisco as a late replacement on only two weeks’ повідомлення, impressively defeating IBF Bantamweight World titleholderEbanie Bridges (9-1) by unanimous decision over 10 раундів (99-91, 99-91, 97-93).

Last October, Yoshida lost her IBF title in a controversial 10-round decision toShurretta Metcalf (14-5-1, 2 КО). Last Friday night, Metcalf lost the IBF belt toCherneka Johnson (18-2, 7 КО), the WBA Bantamweight World Champion, наKatie Taylor-Amanda Serrano III undercard at Madison Square Garden. З перемогою, Johnson also scooped up the vacated World Boxing Council (WBC) і Всесвітньої боксерської організації (WBO) світові титули.

When Metcalf defeated Yoshida, it was with highly questionable tallies of 99-91, 97-93, і 96-94. Her manager, Attorney Keith Sullivan, appealed the result to the IBF, arguing that Yoshida’s accurate jabs and higher punch connection rate should have earned her the win. Sullivan’s appeal was strongly supported by COMPUBOX statistics: Yoshida out-landed Metcalf in eight of the 10 rounds by a margin of 96 для 64 в цілому з'єднує, у тому числі 49-17 edge in jabs and 30 для 16 in punches landed to the body. Yoshida’s defensive skills were also on display, with Metcalf landing just nine percent of her overall punches thrown.

The IBF ruled in January that Yoshida was its No. 1 обов'язковим претендентом, requiring the titleholder to defend against Miyo by this October.

Yoshida’s promoter, Лу Дібелла, got her back into the win column against a tough opponent on February 1, when she defeatedBeata Dudek за допомогою 10-раундовому одноголосним рішенням суддів (99-91, 97-93, 96-94).

“Miyo is a three-time world champ and a trailblazing symbol for Japanese women as an athlete and single mom. I applaud the IBF for recognizing that Yoshida deserves the opportunity to regain her belt. We will continue to push for Miyo to get her title shot as soon as possible, and I am confident that we can work out a deal with MVP. They are in the business of making the best fights in women’s boxing. Undisputed Champ Cherneka Johnson vs. Miyo is a terrific match,”, - сказав Лу Дібелла, President of Дібелла Розваги.

“Lou has done a great job keeping Miyo active and creating great opportunities for her. The time is here for Miyo’s title match to finally get scheduled. На щастя, Jake and Nakisa are helping to change the landscape for women in boxing under their MVP banner,” stated Miyo’s manager, Keith Sullivan. “Congratulations to Cherneka, who fought a great fight and made history. The styles of Miyo and Johnson will make for an exciting, фан-дружніх бій. We have two promoters who firmly support women’s boxing, so I am confident we will get that title fight scheduled as soon as possible,” concluded Sullivan.

From ringside Friday night, Miyo said, “Johnson had the perfect fight plan. I respect her, but we’ll have a more intense fistfight. Так, let’s finally get my mandatory title fight scheduled. We’ll see in the ring who deserves to raise the belt as the IBF bantamweight champion.”

Miyo Yoshida, відомий як “Fighting Single Mother” в Японії, is a respected role model and was the recipient ofRing Magazine‘s “Most Inspirational Female Fighter” award in 2023. She is among just 23 female world champions from Japan and only the sixth to hold world titles in multiple weight classes.

Sullivan, a former New York State Athletic Commission Deputy Commissioner, also manages undefeated Brooklyn heavyweightPryce Taylor (8-0, 6 КО) and Bronx NYPD officerNisa Rodriguez (3-1, 1 KO). Sullivan co-manages IBF Welterweight World title challengerPaddy “The Real Deal” Donovan (14-1, 11 КО) and his cousin, pro-debuting middleweightJim Donovan, alongside coach and ex-world championЕнді Лі.

“Yoshida-Metcalf 2” COMPUBOX Numbers Overwhelmingly Contradict the Judges’ Questionable Scoring

Жовтень 28, 2024 FNU47 Залишити коментар

Триразовий, two-division World Champion Miyo Yoshida

НЬЮ-ЙОРК (Жовтень 25, 2024) – COMPUBOX numbers from this past Wednesday night’s International Boxing Federation (IBF) Women’s Bantamweight World Championship match between defending champion Miso Yoshida and challenger Shurretta Metcalf clearly do not support the judges’ controversial 10-round unanimous decision in favor of Metcalf.

The judge’s dubious scores of 99-91 (Robin Taylor), Роберт Перес (97-93) and Max DeLuca (96-94) awarded Metcalf the disputed victory. The right outcome appeared clear – both in the surprise reactions of Metcalf’s corner and also the thunderous objection from the crowd.

As the scores were read, immediate objections reigned down through the arena as Yoshida and many ringsiders looked stunned.

Metcalf’s unproductive higher work rate of wildly ineffective aggression apparently was favored more by the judges than Yoshida’s well timed and forceful jabs, which set up her more impactful power shots, as well as a much higher comparable percentage of connected punches.

According to COMPUBOX, punch-wise, Yoshida finished the fight ahead 96-64 в цілому, 49-17 in jabs, 30-16 in body punches and 8-0-2 in a round-to-round breakdown of total connects. Yoshida’s masterful defense kept her opponent at a distance, resulting in a large percentage of Metcalf’s punches falling short of connecting, and striking nothing but air.

Загальний, Yoshida landed an astonishingly 50-percent more punches (96-64) than Metcalf, in addition to having a much higher accuracy percentage, nearly three times as great at 22-percent to her opponent’s 9-percent.

Considering her 4-inch height and 6 ½ -inch reach disadvantages, Yoshida shouldn’t have been discredited by the judges for her style – fighting on the outside, moving inside to land punches, and then returning to the outside – because it was really the only way she could defeat the much larger Metcalf. Based on COMPUBOX statistics, she did just that and should have had her hands raised in victory.

Putting aside the bizarrely lopsided scores from Taylor, if the other two judges scored the first, sixth and eighth rounds properly based on the COMPUBOX numbers, Miyo would have won the fight by way of a majority decision. Yoshida out-landed Metcalf in rounds one and eight by 100-percent and by 175-percent in round six. Inexplicably, those rounds were scored against Yoshida.

“Yoshida vs. Metcalf 2” headlined the “Heroes on the Hudson 2” card, presented by DiBella Entertainment, which was broadcast live from The Theater at Madison Square Garden on ProBoxTV.

“It was an honor to once again share the ring with Shuretta,” the dejected Yoshita said shortly after the fight, “this time in the mecca of boxing, Медісон-Сквер-Гарден. “I felt I did more than enough to win the fight, and I don’t understand why the judges awarded my opponent for throwing wild punches that never landed and the few that did, had no effect.”

“Having watched it ringside, read disagreement in the boxing media with the outcome and now seeing these lopsided statistics in Miyo’s favor,” Yoshita’s manager Keith Sullivan commented. “It is hard not to question the accuracy of the scoring. A 7-3 score is a disturbingly extreme stretch. The 9-1 score turned a world championship fight into a tragic farce. This was a disservice to the sport.”

The ProBox TV announcers agreed on air that the 99-91 score was “absurd”. Hall of Fame boxing writer Thomas Hauser, who covered the fight live for www.tss.ib.tv, wrote the following about “Yoshita-Metcalf 2”: “Shurretta threw wild punches from long range all night. When she landed, it seemed almost by accident. The decision could have gone either way. I thought each fighter clearly won three rounds with four rounds up for grabs. 97-93 was a stretch. 99-91 reeked of being an agenda-driven scorecard.

Matt Delaglio was recently named executive director of the New York State Athletic Commission and inherited a job that has long been marked by incompetence and neglect. Delaglio is conscientious and well-qualified for the position. But he has a lot of work to do. One of the things on his ‘to-do list’ should be an overhaul of ring judging in New York. Зараз, the judging in New York is unacceptable.”

A single mother of daughter Mina, Miyo is known as the “Fighting Single Mother” in Japan, where she is a revered role model. Yoshida received the 2023 Most Inspirational Female Fighter award from The Ring magazine. She moved half-way around the world from Japan to New York City to enhance her pro boxing career, unable to speak English, although she is studying to learn the language.

Miyo Yoshida set to avenge loss to Shurretta Metcalf & defend her IBF Bantamweight World title

Жовтень 22, 2024 FNU47 Залишити коментар

SULLIVAN MANAGEMENT

This Wednesday vs. Shurretta Metcalf on ProBox TV live from The Theater at Madison Square Garden

Miyo Yoshida(зображення люб'язно надано DiBella Entertainment)

НЬЮ-ЙОРК (Жовтень 21, 2024) – So much has changed in the last year for three-time, two-division World Champion Miyo Yoshida (17-4, 0 КО) when she enters the ring this Wednesday night (Жовтень. 23) to make the first defense of her International Boxing Federation (IBF) bantamweight title, as well as avenge a loss to her challenger, Чи не. 1 contender Shurretta “Chiccn” Metcalf (13-4-1, 2 КО), at The Theater at Madison Square Garden in New York City.

Yoshida vs. Metcalf will headline the “Heroes on the Hudson 2” card, presented by DiBella Entertainment and broadcast live on ProBoxTV, in the 10-round (2-minutes each) main event to celebrate and support heroic veterans of the United States Armed Forces in advance of Veterans Day in the latest addition of the popular Бродвей боксу серія.

A year ago, in the inaugural “Heroes on the Hudson” card, Metcalf defeated Yoshida by way of a 10-round unanimous decision, але, a month later, Yoshida answered the call to challenge IBF Bantamweight World Champion Ebanie Bridges (9-1) and the Japanese boxer was an upset winner in San Francisco via a 10-round unanimous decision (99-91, 99-91, 97-93), capturing her third world title.

“Everything changed when I received the offer two weeks before the world title I won,” Yoshida explained. “I had planned to fight if I received a nomination order, and I want to take revenge and increase my value. I can learn from my losses, so this result will be different.

“I think Metcalf maintains her boxing style with that blessed height (5" 7 ½”) because she works so hard. She is a single mother (as is Miyo) and tries many things. She can be rough with her language, but I basically respect her. I will defend and firmly avenge my loss to her to advance my story.”

Yoshida also attributed much of her success to her New York City-based team: head trainer Jimmy Sosa, his brother and assistant trainer Aurelinna, strength-and-conditioning coach Sergie Korchynskyy, and manager Keith Sullivan.

“The Sosas are like a father to me and Sergie is like my brother,” Yoshida said. “They come to listen to my lectures, and I learn important things in life, not only through boxing, but also with many kids at Cops & Kids Boxing gym in Brooklyn. Team Sosa patiently teaches me until I understand even if there is a language barrier. I appreciate that and members of Team Sosa are learning Japanese, because the team is united as one.” 4-time World Champion Jorge Linares will work her corner, and he speaks fluent Japanese.

“Keith is my manager, and he listens to me kindly and explores many possibilities for me. He understands my struggles as a single mother, in a foreign country.”

Yoshida vs. Metcalf launches the Great 8 Tournament to crown the undisputed women’s World Bantamweight Champion.

Miyo had been training regularly with veterans and active duty personal at the U.S. military bases in Japan since her July 2016 match at Camp Zama, which inspired her to move to New York. She is still supported by the people at Camp Zama and Atsugi Base.

“It is truly an honor to be managing Miyo,” Sullivan commented. “She is a three-time world champion who brings tremendous professionalism and commitment to her training. This fight has a great drama built into it because of the loss she suffered in their first fight followed by Miyo convincingly winning the world title one month later as a last-minute fill-in. This is a Do Not Miss fight. It will be an exciting fight. I am hopeful that this tournament can be the blueprint for other female divisions to keep the champions and their mandatories active. It is a win-win for all involved.”

Sullivan is a former Deputy Commissioner for the New York State Athletic Commission, who manages IBF and WBA #6 rated welterweight Paddy “The Real Deal” Donovan (14-0, heavyweight prospect Pryce Taylor (4-0, 2 КО), і WBC #9 rated super middleweight Nisa Rodriguez (2-0, 0 КО), amongst several other professional fighters.

Однак, in women’s boxing today, Yoshida is arguably the best from Japan, as well as one of the greatest female prizefighters of all-time from the Land of the Rising Son, behind only retired Japanese fighters Naoko Fujioka (19-3-1, 7 КО), Japan’s only five-weight class female world champion, and possibly Emiko Raika (24-8-1, 10 КО).

A single mother of daughter Mina, Miyo is known as the “Fighting Single Mother” in Japan, where she is a revered role model. Yoshida received the 2023 Most Inspirational Female Fighter award from The Ring magazine.

“I hope to further shape the way that was created by our predecessors into a better one for the next generation,” Yoshida said.

To cement her legacy, Yoshida must first get past Metcalf in their rematch, avenging Miyo’s loss by way of 10-round decision a year ago, and advance in the Great 8 Tournament to determine the undisputed women’s bantamweight world champion. На щастя, all of the world bantamweight champions – WBC/WBO & The Ring Champion Dina Thorslund (22-0, 9 КО) of Denmark, IBF Ellie Scotney (9-0, 0 КО) from the United Kingdom, and the Yoshida vs. Metcalf winner (their fight technically launches the tournament) – will compete in the Great 8 along with some of the leading contenders such as Cherneka Johnson (16-2, 6 КО), Yulihan “La Cobritas” Luna Avila (27-4-1, 4 КО), and Segolene “Majestic” Lefebure (18-1, 1 KO).

“Прямо зараз,” Yoshida noted, “I’m only thinking of defending my title belt. I had been hoping for unification fights since I was able to become world champion again. I was impatient with this interval between matches because it is the last chapter due to my age. If I couldn’t compete in boxing, I thought about returning to kickboxing or MMA. I didn’t want to be in between fights, and I thought it would be better for me and for women’s boxing if I became well known.”

“Japan’s boxing scene carries a rich history with a strong cultural connection to its people,” Miyo’s manager Keith Sullivan commented. “Japanese boxers honor a tradition of competitive excellence and outstanding sportsmanship. Miyo embodies these qualities as she fights for the pride of Japan. She is an exemplary champion for her native country.”

Sullivan is a former Deputy Commissioner for the New York State Athletic Commission, who manages IBF and WBA #6 rated welterweight Paddy “The Real Deal” Donovan (14-0, heavyweight prospect Pryce Taylor (4-0, 2 КО), і WBC #9 rated super middleweight Nisa Rodriguez (2-0, 0 КО), amongst several other professional fighters.

VERONA, N.Y.. – червень 10, 2022 - Непереможений нокаутер у важкій вазіБаходір Джалоловне поспішав у п'ятницю ввечері, але зрештою драматично закрив шоу нокаутом у восьмому раундіДжек Муловейу головній подіїShoBox: Нове поколіннятелетрансляція в казино Turning Stone Resort у Вероні, N.Y.. що допомогло розпочати вступні вихідні до Міжнародного боксерського залу слави в сусідній Канастоті, N.Y..

Відомий як «Великий узбек», 6-футовий 7 Джалолов, дворазовий олімпієць і 2020 Золотий медаліст з Узбекистану, покращений до ідеального 11-0 з 11 Нокаут, коли він приземлився величезним лівим ударом, який відправив Муловаї (11-3-1, 7 КО) лежачи на спині у восьмому й останньому раунді.

«Я почуваюся дуже добре від виступу,», - сказав 27-річний Джалолов. «Суперник був на справді хорошому рівні та чудовий боєць. Він був справді жорстким, витривалий хлопець. Я завдав йому кілька великих ударів, і він може прийняти удар».

На очах тих, хто є хто з королівських боксерів, у тому числі Андре Уорда, Шейн Мослі, Антоніо Тарвер і Теренс Кроуфорд, Джалолов поставив знак оклику на хвилюючому вечорі боксу під час історичного уїк-енду вступу в Зал слави, який включатиме останні три класи вступників під час церемонії в неділю.

Джалолов домінував протягом усього бою, з єдиним питанням, чи продовжить він свою серію нокаутів чи ні. Це виглядало вірогідним і в третьому, і в п’ятому раундах, коли Джалолов похитував Муловаї, але гра Бельгії показала відвагу, вийшовши з обох раундів неушкодженою. У шостому турі, Муловаї вдруге в своїй кар'єрі був скинутий лівим кросом, коли пролунав дзвінок. Він підвівся на ноги і побив графа, але був збитий назавжди ще одним підписом лівою рукою 1:20 в останньому турі.

«Я думав, що збираюся зупинити його в кінці шостого раунду, коли кинув його, але рефері дозволив йому продовжити, і раунд закінчився,– сказав Джалолов, з якого було знято очко за витримку в четвертому раунді. «Я думав, що настав час. Але довелося дочекатися фінального раунду. Я щасливий, що отримав зупинку. Мені здається, що я зробив йому три чи чотири рази».

Джалолов вперше в кар'єрі пройшов п'ятий раунд, посадка 47 відсоток його потужності ударів і викидання Муловаї 99-17 у загальній кількості ударів.

У со-головній події, непереможний домініканський проспект суперважкої вагиДжордж Аріас(18-0, 7 КО) виграв тактичний поєдинок над раніше непереможенимАланте Грін(10-1-1, 7 КО) роздільним рішенням суддів з очок 78-74, 77-75 на користь Арія і 77-75 для Зеленого.

«Цей бій я навчився більше, ніж будь-чому іншому, тому я ставлю своєму виступу C-плюс або B-мінус, тому що це тип бою змушує мене повертатися в спортзал голоднішим і знати, що є ще багато чого, що потрібно зробити.,– сказав Аріас, який зараз живе та тренується в Бронксі. «Але цього разу ми були благословенні, тому що він повинен був бути трохи сильнішим, все могло бути більш катастрофічним».

У першій половині бою Аріас переміг у переважній позиції, виконання плану гри шляхом перебоксування Гріна та отримання чистішого, сильніші удари. Клівлендський Грін виріс у боротьбу в останніх раундах, але було надто мало, надто пізно, і Аріас зміг зробити достатньо, щоб утримати пізнє зростання.

Це була важка боротьба за забити, оскільки всі три судді погодилися лише на два з восьми раундів, але статистика ударів підтвердила рішення суддів, оскільки Аріас переміг Гріна 81-58. Зелений став 213^ї боєць, щоб зіпсувати свій рекорд непереможеностіShoBox.

«Усі, з ким я зустрічаюся, завжди тренуються для мене на тисячу відсотків краще,– продовжив Аріас. «Він був справді повним. Насправді він не обов’язково мав якусь слабкість, якою я міг би скористатися. Час реакції у нього був дуже добрим, і він мав хорошу внутрішню роботу ніг, тому мені знадобилося занадто багато часу, щоб потрапити в зону, тому що на кожну стратегію, яку я використовував, він, здавалося, мав хорошу реакцію».

У телеконвекторі, непереможна перспектива в легкій вазіЧенн Тонсон (11-0, 8 КО) виставити боксерський дисплей, синці, бити та зрештою зламати раніше непереможенихТайлер Томлін (13-1, 9 КО) на шляху до технічного нокауту в п'ятому раунді. Арбітр Марк Нельсон зупинив дію 1:01 в раунді.

«Я знав, що якби я залишався з ним у кишені, то уколи, які я збирався йому зробити, відштовхнули б його,», - сказав Тонсон з Канади, якого тренує колишній бронзовий призер Олімпійських ігор і суперник у напівважкій вазі Кріс Джонсон. «Дивно, він був трохи міцнішим, ніж я думав, тому що коли я його сильно вдарив, він не відступав ні на крок. Тож зрештою я знав, що це буде його власна смерть, і це було лише питанням часу».

Тонсон, який вчетверте бився в 2022, контролював темп і дистанцію від початкового дзвінка і виглядав більш розслабленим і досвідченим бійцем. Він використав свій удар і випрямлену праву руку, щоб викликати як набряк навколо лівого ока Томліна, так і серйозну причину для занепокоєння в кутку Томліна. До початку третього туру, Батько і тренер Томліна Дарріл закликав сина набрати темп.

Однак, це був Thonson, який ще більше натиснув на газ. Наприкінці третього раунду, Тонсон завдав шквал ударів, які завдали Томліну болю та залишили на його обличчі криваве місиво. Звук дзвоника тимчасово врятував Томліна, але його ніч закінчилася в п'ятому раунді. Неможливо уникнути постійного покарання, яке виношував Тонсон, дію було зупинено після того, як лікар біля рингу оцінив Томліна.

Загальний, Тонсон приземлився 44 відсоток його потужності пробиває та переміщує Томліна 102-39 у загальній кількості ударів.

"Я почуваюся добре, Я почуваюся так, наче був у бою. Мене щойно спіймали з двома правами, і я майже впевнений, що один з них або зламав, або зламав мені ніс,», - сказав 22-річний Томлін. «Це було в другому чи третьому раунді, коли мене спіймали. Я відчув, що це відхилило план гри щодо того, що я намагався зробити. Я трохи вагався, ніж мав би. Я просто не можу потрапити під ці накладні права. SHOWTIME, це те, що вони роблять, вони ставлять хороших бійців проти хороших бійців. Я відчував, що збираюся виграти, але ми повинні повернутися, подивитися фільм і подивитися, що буде далі».
