(L-R) — Roger Flores, Rob Diaz, CEO de Havoc Boxing, Oliver Flores, Norma Flores i Ray Campbell, Jr., Director d'operacions de Havoc Boxing
CIUTAT DE NOVA YORK (Febrer 6, 2017) – Nicaragüenc lleuger Oliver “Trompeta” Flors‘ bon rendiment aquest passat Divendres tarda contra l'invicte, No. 1 classificat Felix “El Diamant” Verdejo, lluitat davant de més de 7,000 aficionats a la ciutat natal de Verdejo, San Juan, Port Ric, va encarnar realment l'esperit de Flores’ promotor, Boxa estralls.
Conegut a tota la boxa pel seu cridaner, boxa d'aspecte totalment únic “uniformes” – baguls i jaquetes – que són famosos per campions del món actuals i passats com ara Danny “Ràpid” García, Danny “Home Miracle” Jacobs, Paulie “Magic Man” Malignaggi i altres, Havoc Boxing també és una empresa de promoció de boxa en augment.
Tot i que Havoc Boxing pot no ser un jugador important, almenys no ara mateix, compta amb un creixent estable de boxejadors dotats com Flores, l'antic desafiador del títol mundial de pes súper ploma que molts van caure mereixia un destí molt millor que la seva controvertida pèrdua per decisió de 10 rondes (94-96, 91-99, 92-92), que va ser lliurat pels tres jutges porto-riquenys al costat del ring.
Flors (27-3-2, 17 KOs) va ser un desfavorit viu que va donar un prohibitiu favorit a Verdejo (23-0, 15 KOs) tot el que podia manejar i molt més. Verdejo fins i tot va provocar la ira dels seguidors de la seva ciutat natal per no implicar Flores, que va entrar fort a la segona meitat de la lluita, sagnant el 2012 El nas de l'olímpic porto-riqueny a la vuitena ronda i li va fer mal greu a la 10a. L'Organització Mundial de Boxa (OMB) El campió llatí de pes lleuger va deixar l'anell al Roberto Clemente Coliseum a un cor d'esbroncades.
Els titulars que descriuen la lluita utilitzaven frases com “va escapar amb la victòria” i “lluita per guanyar” per descriure la victòria contaminada de Verdejo. Un escriptor de boxa va fer que Flores guanyés sis rondes a quatre, afirmant que Verdejo simplement no va fer prou per guanyar cap altra ronda.
“Estem molt orgullosos d'Oliver,” CEO de Havoc Boxing Rob Díaz dit. “Vam pensar que va guanyar la lluita, però és difícil lluitar contra un heroi nacional al pati del darrere amb tres dels seus compatriotes com a jutges. Els que van demanar excuses a Verdejo dient que no estava en el seu millor moment a causa del seu acomiadament de vuit mesos, vam recordar que l'Oliver feia més d'un any que no lluitava perquè van caure algunes baralles que havíem alineat.. Després de la baralla, tants aficionats porto-riquenys ens van felicitar, dient que Oliver va ser robat, i que es mereixia una represa. Verdejo està buscant un oponent per a la seva lluita de la vigília del dia de Puerto Rico (Juny 10) al Madison Square Garden. Sens dubte, estem oberts a una represa, però dubto que s'arrisquen a lluitar contra Oliver de nou.
“Flores és el que tracta Havoc Boxing Promotions. Encara estem construint el nostre estable de lluitadors, però la gent de la indústria de la boxa ja hauria de saber que els nostres lluitadors vénen a lluitar. Tots estan disposats a lluitar contra qualsevol, en qualsevol moment, on sigui, sempre que sigui un tracte just per a nosaltres.”
A més de Flores, Havoc també promou la perspectiva de pes ploma de la República Dominicana de 22 anys Joan “La Fira” Vásquez (19-1, 16 KOs), qui ocupa el lloc n. 14 per l'Associació Mundial de Boxa (AMB), així com una parella de lluitadors colombians, supergallo Wilner Soto (16-1, 8 KOs) i pes creuer Santander “Cha Cha” Silgado (27-4, 21 KOs), que va lluitar pel títol mundial de l'AMB a Rússia i es va classificar entre els primers 15 a l'AMB i al Consell Mundial de Boxa (CMB) fa uns anys.
“Estem reconstruint la marca Havoc Boxing per mostrar també la nostra divisió promocional,” va continuar Díaz. “Tenim alguns talentosos, lluitadors famolencs que mantenim el més ocupats possible, movent-los en posició per a lluites importants, com Flores contra Verdejo, incloent-hi dues cops de títol mundial fins ara. Estem a prop de coronar el nostre primer campió del món. Havoc Boxing és molt més que la millor empresa de disseny i marxandatge de boxa. El futur és Havoc!”

Oliver Flores (134 lliures.)

SAN JUAN, Port Ric (Febrer 2, 2017) – Live underdog Oliver “Trompeta” Flors has prepared to shock the boxing world demà nit (Divendres, Febrer. 3), albeit it in hostile territory. challenging undefeated World Boxing Organization (OMB) Latino lightweight champion Felix “El Diamant” Verdejo in the 10-round main event at Robrerto Clemente Coliseum in San Juan, Port Ric.

A rising star in a universarlly recognized boxing hotbed, Verdejo (22-0, 15 KOs) represented Puerto Rico in the 2012 Jocs Olímpics, losing in the quarterfinals to two-time Olympic gold medalist Vasyl Lomachenko, who is the reigning WBO super feathereight world champion. The 23-year-old will be fighting in front of a passionate hometown crowd in San Jose, risking his WBO No. 1 contender status and impending world title shot against current champion Terry Flanagan. He’s also scheduled to fight 10 de juny on Top Rank’s major Puerto Rican Day card at New York City’s famed Madison Square Garden.
Havoc Boxing-promoted Flores (27-2-2, 17 KOs), però, is looking forward to spoiling Verdejo’s party and bringing joy back to his native Nicaragua.
We accepted this challenge because we believe Oliver will rise to the occasion,” Flors’ promotor Rob Díaz (Boxa estralls) dit. “He hadn’t fought for more than a year because several fights we lined up fell through. Així, we decided to move him up to lightweight to challenge a great prospect like Verdejo. This is a tremendous opportunity for Oliver. He’s not concerned about fighting Verdejo in Puerto Rico. Oliver has effectively fought on the road throughout his career because he’s a true warrior. He has a real chance to shock the boxing world demà night and we’re confident that he will bring his best into the ring. Oliver is one of the best kept secrets in boxing but fans all over the world will know his name after de demà lluitar.”
In his last fight on New Year’s Eve of 2015, Flores unsuccessfully challenged then-World Boxing Association (AMB) Super world super featherweight champion Takashi Uchiyama (23-0-1) a Tòquio, getting stopped in the third round.
Flors’ only other pro loss was in 2012 to current WBC super featherweight world champion Berchelt Miguel, while his two draws were both on the road in Mexico and Costa Rica.
Flors (pictured to right on the scale) is a past WBA Fedebol lightweight title holder, as well as former World Boxing Council (CMB) FECARBOX and International Boxing Federation (FIB) campió súper ploma. He has proven to be a dangerous, upset-minded opponent having defeated previously unbeaten boxers Marcos Mojica (12-0-2), by way of unanimous decision, i Gabriel Dorado (9-0) via a first-round knockout.
A victory over Verdejo should position Flores for another world title shot in the not too distant future.

I’m going to seize the opportunity to the best of my ability.
What kind of fight are you expecting from the champion?
Oliver Flores: Takashi Uchiyama is an incredible fighter. He’s defended his title many times over and his record is unblemished. Most of his title defenses have ended in a knockout so I know he’s a very powerful puncher. I’m expecting him to be aggressive in his approach.
How is the relationship with you and your father, who also serves as your trainer?
Oliver Flores: My father Roger Flores is a former pro boxer who has been guiding my corner since I turned professional. He knows my strengths and weaknesses and is very good at finding flaws in my opponents. He’s been with me from day one and I wouldn’t want it any other way.

I’ve had some great sparring here in Nicaragua where I’m working out with a few different guys. Everyone is pushing me to the limit. It’s this type of training camp that’s going to get ready for Uchiyama, who I know is going to be at his best. I’m executing every possible situation that I feel will come up in this fight. I’m ready for battle.
Without giving up your game plan, what do you feel you’ll need to do to come out victorious against Uchiyama?
Oliver Flores: I need to be aware of his powerful right hand power punchers. He also likes to land he left hook to the body, so I need to be ready to counter those punches.

Talk about you relationship with Havoc Boxing Promotions.
Olivier Flores: Fighting for Havoc Boxing has been a tremendous blessing to for me and my career. I signed with them in June and shortly after I had a fight in August. Now remarkably I’m fighting for a world title and I couldn’t be happier. As a fighter you want to stay busy and put yourself in position to take your career to the next level. With Havoc Boxing, I’ve been able to do all of the above. My dad and I are very pleased to be part of Team Havoc Boxing.
