PHILADELPHIA – June 7, 2025 - Leggenda della boxeDanny Garcia’s Swift Promotionspresented“The Future Is Now: Series IIsabato sera, as perennial fan favorite Mickey “Time Machine” Bey reasserted his presence as a top lightweight contender with an impressive and dominant third-round TKO over fellow former world champion Oscar Escandon at 2:03 of round three in the main event from the Newtown Sports & Events Center in Newtown, Pennsylvania, outside of Philadelphia.

The action streamed live onMillions.co or through theMillions App.

Bey (26-3-1, 14 KO) a native of Cleveland, Ohio, who now trains in Philadelphia, looked sharp in battering former WBC Interim World Featherweight Champion Escandon (27-10, 18 KO) throughout the abbreviated contest.

Bey appeared to shake the Colombian Escandon with a left hook and had him bleeding steadily after round one. Bey dropped Escandon with a sharp salvo of shots at the end of round two and again in round three, prompting the responsible stoppage from Referee Eric Dali.

“I just had a ball in there like a kid in the candy store,” said Bey, post-lotta. “I didn’t want to rush it. I knew he was looking to land something big, so I put the work in, in the gym. I knew what I was doing with my brain, but I just let my body do what I trained for. I’m older now, that’s why I’m the ‘Time Machine.’ I probably have a handful of fights left. I’m here for a good time, not a long time. We have some big plans after this.”

Hard-hitting 22-year-old Russian super featherweight prospect Dariial Kuchmenov (9-0, 7 KO) showed off a formidable variety of offensive tools while stopping normally durable Mexican journeyman Diuhl “Elegante” Olguin (17-45-7, 10 KO) at the end of the sixth round.

Now fighting out of Los Angeles via Nalchik, Russia, the 5’ 10” Kuchmenov towered over Olguin and proceeded to unload a furious arsenal of power punches and virtually ignore any return fire until his Mexican Californian opponent signaled he had suffered enough.

The official time was 3:00 of round six and all three judges had Kuchmenov winning by a shutout 60-54 at the time of the stoppage.

16-year-old bantamweight boxing prodigy “King” David Garcia continued his historic rise in the professional ranks with a quick demolition of MMA fighter Marcelino Rangel (1-2).

Fenice, Arizona’s Garcia (4-0, 3 KO), a four-time national champion as an amateur, had too many gifts for Rangel, who crumbled from the powerful onslaught from the teenage sensation at 2:53 del telaio apribile.

“It’s a blessing. I wasn’t really looking for it but, it just came,” said Garcia of the knockout. “I felt like the time was right. He was moving around a lot, so I had to cut the ring off and land some power shots. I felt the time was right to trap him in the corner and demolish him.”

Rising welterweight prospect Thanjhae Teasley (13-0, 6 KO) continued his ascension with a clear six-round unanimous decision over 30-fight veteran Nelson Morales.

26-year-old Teasley looked sharp against his former sparring partner Morales, banging him with wilting left hooks to the body and strong combinations to the head throughout the action. The iron-chinned Morales, stopped just two times against a long list of top competitors in his career, was able to survive the onslaught and offered moderate resistance.

At the end of the action, the scores were academic at 60-54 da tutti e tre i giudici.

Formerly world-ranked bantamweight Jonathan Rodriguez (18-3-1, 7 KO) shook off the rust from 11 months of inactivity and got back in the win column with a unanimous eight-round decision over durable Colombian veteran Jesus Martinez (38-27-1, 16 KO).

Rodriguez got in eight workmanlike rounds of work from the well-traveled Martinez, but the outcome was never in doubt. Upping the pace in the last round, Rodriguez was able to briefly hurt Martinez in a standout round eight for him.

I punteggi sono stati 80-72, 80-72 e 79-73.

Promising 18-year-old super lightweight prospect Elijah “Macho” Gonzalez (2-0, 2 KO) scored an entertaining fourth-round knockout over Codi Chavez (0-2).

In against an offensively gifted and younger foe, the game, but outgunned, Chavez was already bleeding from the nose by the end of round one and was dropped twice in round four. The first knockdown came from a perfect Gonzalez left hook and the finishing blow was a flush right to the jaw, which prompted Referee Shawn Clark to wave it off at 1:31 del quarto round.

To open the night’s action, former amateur standout Rommel “Ro” Dunbar Jr. (1-0) made a successful professional debut at super featherweight by taking a dominant four-round unanimous decision over Denzel Bowlding (0-6). A three-time state champion before turning pro, Dunbar stayed busy throughout, working especially well to Bowlding’s body against the ropes.

All three judges had it 40-36.

LAS VEGAS (Agosto 22, 2021) – In una lotta decisiva per la carriera, yordenis ugás ha brillato sul palco più grande.

Una folla chiassosa di 17,438 alla T-Mobile Arena di Las Vegas ho guardato il perdente Ugas outbox e ha battuto i grandi Manny Pacquiao per vincere una decisione unanime di 12 round e mantenere il titolo mondiale dei pesi welter WBA nell'evento principale del pay-per-view FOX Sports PBC.

“Sono molto emozionato ma, soprattutto, Voglio ringraziare Manny Pacquiao per avermi regalato questo momento sul ring oggi,"Ha detto Ugas in seguito. "Te l'avevo detto, Sono il campione della WBA e stasera l’ho dimostrato”.

“Sono molto emozionato. Molte persone dicono che i cubani non possono vincere la grande battaglia. Così, Sono molto orgoglioso di aver ottenuto questa vittoria per Cuba e di aver dimostrato di cosa siamo capaci”.

Pacquiao, come sempre, è stato gentile nella sconfitta.

“Congratulazioni a Ugas e al suo team,"Disse Pacquiao. “Grazie a tutti voi. Voglio ringraziare tutti i miei fan e i media. Per molti decenni, la stampa, i media e gli appassionati di boxe erano sempre dietro di noi, sostenendoci. Ecco perché siamo qui, perché siamo diventati popolari e perché abbiamo realizzato i nostri sogni di combattenti.

“Sono un combattente fuori e dentro il ring. Non vedo l’ora di tornare nelle Filippine e aiutarle durante questa pandemia”.

Ugas ha usato la sua taglia, forza e lunghezza per tenere perplesso Pacquiao, logorando lentamente l’unico campione in otto divisioni della boxe a vincere in modo decisivo.

Pacquiao, 42 (67-8-2, 39 KO), ha promesso un inizio veloce e ha mantenuto la sua parola nel primo, sfrecciando dentro e fuori con combinazioni. Imperturbabile, il 35enne Ugas (27-4, 12 KO) mantenuto una guardia serrata. Nella seconda, ha svelato il suo lungo jab sinistro, alternandolo su e giù per le scale mentre Pacquiao lottava per entrare.

Pacquiao ha iniziato il terzo con un sinistro corto ma Ugas ha messo a tacere il pubblico con i suoi colpi potenti. Il cubano ha iniziato ad eseguire un looping proprio nel quarto, un pugno con cui Pacquiao ha lottato tutta la notte.

A seguire un quinto posto, Ugas ha ripreso il sopravvento nel sesto posto, lavorare il jab e sferrare pugni ben piazzati al corpo. L'azione a doppio senso ha portato il pubblico in piedi nel settimo mentre gridavano “Manny! Manny! Manny!Ugas rimase in bilico, spingendo indietro il senatore filippino con più diritti.

“Il mio allenatore, Ismael Salas, e avevo un piano,“ha detto Ugas. “Stavamo per spostarlo; avremmo usato il jab per tenerlo sbilanciato. Questo era l’intero piano di gioco.

Ugas controllava l'ottavo, e il pubblico chiassoso ha risposto ai diritti più punitivi di Ugas. Percependo che la lotta stava scivolando via, Pacquiao ha accelerato il ritmo al nono posto. Ancora, i colpi più duri sono arrivati ​​da Ugas.

All'inizio del 10th, una sinistra di Pacquiao ha costretto Ugas a vincere. Lo slancio fu di breve durata. Ugas ora aveva trovato una casa per il suo diritto e lo stava lanciando con regolarità. Il 12th era particolarmente unilaterale. Ugas ha atterrato ripetutamente a destra, ferendo Pacquiao in più occasioni e aprendo un taglio vicino all'occhio sinistro.

“La mano destra era un colpo che avevo programmato di usare su Manny,“ha detto Ugas. "Continuava a funzionare, quindi ho continuato a usarlo."

Il trionfante Ugas si alzò tra le braccia in segno di vittoria mentre suonava la campana. Pochi istanti dopo, tre giudici hanno segnato l'incontro a suo favore, uno che gira in a 115-113 carta mentre gli altri due ce l'avevano 116-112.

"In futuro, potresti non vedere Manny Pacquiao sul ring,", ha detto Pacquiao. "Non lo so. Lasciami riposare prima, rilassati e prendi una decisione se continuerò a combattere o no.

“È una leggenda, uno dei più grandi combattenti mai vissuti," Ha detto Ugas del suo avversario. “Lo rispetterò sempre non solo come grande combattente ma anche fuori dal ring. Ammiro anche il fatto che combatta per il suo Paese, come faccio io. Voglio liberare Cuba”.

In caso di co-main, Robert “Il Fantasma” Guerrero (37-6-1, 20 KO) ha lottato per raggiungere una decisione unanime in 10 round Il “vizioso” Victor Ortiz (32-7-3, 25 KO).

Tutti e tre i giudici hanno segnato l'incontro 96-94.

“È stato bello essere di nuovo sul ring con i fan e mi sono sicuramente nutrito della loro energia,disse Guerrero. “Sapevo che sarebbe stata una guerra totale. Victor Ortiz ha tirato fuori il meglio di me stasera. È stato un continuo andare avanti e indietro durante l'intero combattimento e ne sono uscito vincitore come avevo previsto.

Gran parte dell'azione è stata combattuta all'interno, dove Guerrero ha sferrato i colpi più puliti. Dopo un'apertura emozionante, Guerrero si è rianimato nel secondo, stupendo Ortiz con una serie di colpi potenti.

Giro dopo giro, i due ex campioni del mondo hanno sparato colpi corti e ravvicinati, rifiutandosi di fare un passo indietro. Guerrero ha concluso la sua prestazione con un forte 10th telaio, che si è rivelato la differenza sulle carte.

“Ho pensato che ho vinto. È quello che è,disse Ortiz. “È stata una lotta serrata. Non mi ha fatto male. Un paio di volte sono rimasto colto di sorpresa, ma è tutto. Avrei dovuto boxare un po' meglio, ma ehi, ha fatto quello che doveva fare”.

“Ora sono pronto a farmi avanti e combattere chiunque mi mettano di fronte,disse Guerrero. “Ho ancora molto in me e sono in questo sport per vincere un altro titolo mondiale. Dedico questa lotta alla mia famiglia e do tutta la gloria al mio Signore e Salvatore Gesù Cristo”.

In una performance da star, Mark "magnifico" porterà via (23-0, 16 KO) delle Filippine ha segnato uno spettacolare ko Luglio Ceja (32-5-1, 28 KO), mettendo in trasferta l'ex campione del mondo 10th round del loro WBC Featherweight Title Eliminator.

“Ho lavorato molto sui pugni diretti,"Ha detto porterà via. “Ho continuato a lavorarci round dopo round e quando ho visto che era ferito, Ho seguito.

“Sono così felice per il risultato. Mi aspettavo che il suo stile lo realizzasse e stasera mi aspettavo un ko”.

Sembrava che fosse notte fonda quando un gancio sinistro di Magsayo ha messo a terra Ceja nel primo. Il messicano Ceja si è alzato coraggiosamente e si è fatto strada nella lotta, rallentando Magsayo con combinazioni alle costole.

Il lavoro di Ceja ha dato i suoi frutti alla fine del quinto, quando un montante sinistro ha introdotto Magsayo sulla tela. Il fannullone di 26 anni si è alzato in piedi. La campana suonò pochi istanti dopo.

Ceja ha attaccato il corpo con abbandono nel sesto e settimo posto, ma è stato Magsayo a ritrovare tardi il fiato. Le sue mani e i suoi piedi veloci gli hanno permesso di dettare l'azione nell'ottavo. Ha goduto di un nono posto ancora migliore, lampeggiando la sua sinistra sotto forma di jab e ganci.

Con la lotta apparentemente in bilico, Magsayo lasciò che tutto si svolgesse nel decimo. Mentre Ceja cercava rifugio lungo le corde, Magsayo ha stappato un uno-due perfetto sulla mascella del messicano. Ceja si accasciò sul tappeto, aiutato lungo la strada da un altro diritto. Non era necessario alcun conteggio. L'arbitro Kenny Bayless ha concluso l'incontro a 0:50 della 10th round.

“Sono stato abbattuto e sono rimasto sorpreso, ma ho concentrato la mia mente su ciò che volevo, un colpo da campionato del mondo,"Ha detto porterà via. “Oggi è il mio sogno e ora si sta avverando. Spero che il mio prossimo incontro sia un colpo per il titolo mondiale.

Nell'apertura del pay-per-view, Carlos Castro (27-0, 11 KO) ha regalato la migliore prestazione della sua carriera, fermare l'ex sfidante al titolo mondiale Oscar Escandon (26-6, 18 KO) nel 10th round del loro incontro avanti e indietro nei pesi piuma.

“Escandón è stato lì con i migliori. Ha fatto molti round con i campioni del mondo,", ha detto Castro. “Ma era solo questione di tempo, raccogliendo i nostri pugni. Mi sono concentrato un po' di più sui miei scatti. Sto con Manny Robles solo da quattro mesi. Con un po' più di tempo, Penso che saremo in grado di dominare la divisione”.

Castro ha sfruttato la sua altezza e la sua portata per tenere a bada Escandón nella fase iniziale. Escandón è stato sempre al gioco. Tardi nel primo, ha bloccato Castro contro le corde e lo ha allacciato con un gancio duro sinistro.

“Sapevo che sarebbe stato un inizio lento,", ha detto Castro. “Manny Robles mi ha insegnato molto, ma un anno e mezzo fuori dal ring, un nuovo allenatore: è sempre diverso. Lo sparring e l'allenamento sono sempre diversi dai combattimenti, quindi mi sento benissimo e felice per l'opportunità. Devo continuare a progredire”.

Entro l'inizio del secondo, Castro era tornato a usare il suo jab e il gioco di gambe tempestivo. La sua potenza di pugni aumentava ad ogni round che passava.


Escandón ha iniziato a mostrare segni di usura nel quinto. Castro ora stava atterrando alla testa e al corpo con regolarità. All'inizio del settimo, Escandón è stato gravemente traballato da una mano destra. Castro si avventò, scaricando una serie di colpi potenti. Escandón ha risposto con un gancio sinistro selvaggio che ha mancato. La forza del colpo spinse Escandón al tappeto. L'arbitro Celestino Ruiz ha erroneamente decretato un atterramento, che è stato successivamente ribaltato e dichiarato scivoloso.

Castro cerca di chiudere lo spettacolo ma Escandón dimostra un cuore incredibile, combattendolo finché Castro non fu costretto a ritirarsi. La folla ha urlato di approvazione alla fine del round.

Castro ha continuato a dominare nel nono posto. Ha chiuso lo spettacolo al decimo, atterrando un altro grande destro seguito da un tiro al volo che ha messo a terra Castro. Ruiz misericordiosamente respinse la cosa 1:08 della 10th round.

“Ho combattuto con tutto il cuore e ho dato il massimo, ma semplicemente non era la mia serata stasera,", ha detto Castro. “L’ho fatto male al primo turno, ma non ho avuto abbastanza tempo per finirlo. Ho molto rispetto per Castro, è un grande combattente e ha mostrato grande sportività. Non ho finito e tornerò.

“Quello che verrà dopo dipende dai miei promotori,", ha detto Castro. “Mi prenderò un po’ di tempo libero per stare con la mia famiglia, Ringrazio i miei allenatori e mi godo la vittoria”.

Precedendo il pay-per-view, sensazione di leggerezza crescente Frank "Il Fantasma" Martin (14-0, 10 KO) impressionato nuovamente, lanciare uno shutout di 10 round Ryan Kielczweski (30-6, 11 KO) nell'evento principale dell'azione PBC in diretta su FOX e FOX Deportes.

Tutti e tre i giudici hanno segnato l'incontro 100-90.

Il 26enne Martin ha dettato il ritmo fin dalla campana di apertura, lavorando dietro un jab mancino e intervenendo con le combinazioni. Kielczewski era al gioco ma non aveva risposta alla velocità di Martin, potenza e atletismo.

Nell'evento co-principale su FOX, pesante prospettiva Steven Torres (5-0, 5 KO) reso il lavoro veloce di Justin Rolfe (6-3-1, 4 KO), picchiando Rolfe finché l'arbitro Robert Hoyle non intervenne 2:33 del primo round del loro incontro programmato di quattro round.

Nell'apertura televisiva della FOX, pubblicizzato leggero José Valenzuela migliorato per 9-0 (6 KO) con una interruzione del quarto round finita Donte Strayhorn (12-4, 4 KO).

Il 22enne Valenzuela ha segnato un atterramento all'inizio del primo quando un sinistro dall'alto ha mandato indietro Strayhorn barcollante. Arbitro Raúl Caiz Jr. ha stabilito che le corde sostenevano Strayhorn e amministravano un conteggio di otto in piedi.

Nella seconda, Valenzuela ha mostrato equilibrio mentre spingeva l'attacco dietro la sua posizione mancina. Strayhorn ha avuto i suoi momenti migliori nel terzo round. Tuttavia, i colpi più pesanti vennero da Valenzuela, che l'ha versato fino alla fine dell'incontro alle 1:29 del quarto turno.

Il primo agosto 21 si incontrano cercando di ottenere una vittoria che li riporterà in posizione per competere ancora una volta per un titolo mondiale.

Ecco cosa ha detto Guerrero sull'incontro, campo di addestramento e altro ancora:

Sul suo prossimo incontro con Victor Ortiz:

“Questa lotta è arrivata da molto tempo, se ricordo bene, è stato menzionato anni fa, ma non è mai successo. Sono emozionato per questo incontro perché entrambi abbiamo bisogno di una vittoria, e i fan hanno molta familiarità con entrambi i nostri stili. Victor Ortiz ed io siamo entrambi combattenti entusiasmanti, e tutti sanno che sarà un combattimento tra cani amichevole tra i fan.

Se non stai lottando per vincere un titolo mondiale, non dovresti praticare questo sport. Voglio vincere almeno un altro titolo mondiale prima che tutto sia detto e fatto. È un obiettivo ambizioso, ma credo in me stesso.

Unbeaten Super Bantamweight Contender Carlos Castro Faces Former Title Challenger Oscar Escandon To Open Telecast
a 10 p.m. ET / 7 p.m. PT

PHOENIX (Luglio 29, 2021) – Unbeaten two-time world champion David “El Bandera Roja” Benavídez will square off against former champion Jose Uzcategui in a WBC Super Middleweight title eliminator as Benavídez returns to his hometown of Phoenix for the first time in six years in the SHOWTIME main event on Saturday, Agosto 28 in a Premier Boxing Champions event from Footprint Center – home of the Phoenix Suns and Mercury.

La trasmissione televisiva Showtime Championship Boxing inizia alle 10 p.m. ET / 7 p.m. PT and will feature the much-awaited return of longtime contender Jose Benavídez, il fratello maggiore di David Benavídez, facing Argentina’s Francisco Emanuel Torres nel co-main event dei 10 round super welter. Kicking off the telecast is undefeated contender Carlos Castro taking on former title challenger Oscar Escandon in un 10 round super-gallo attacco. The Benavídez brothers and Castro hail from Phoenix and have their sights set on impressing their hometown fans.

I biglietti per l'evento dal vivo, che è promosso da Sampson Boxing e TGB Promotions, sono in vendita ora e sono disponibili per l'acquisto tramite Ticketmaster.com.

“I am happy to be bringing David ‘El Bandera Roja’ Benavidez back to his hometown to fight after so many years away,” said Sampson Lewkowicz of Sampson Boxing. “It is going to be a sensational welcome party for him and all the fans.”

Ancora solo 24 anni, Benavidez (24-0, 21 KO) entra in questa lotta dopo aver eliminato i suoi ultimi quattro avversari, compreso un settembre 2019 knockout del due volte campione dei pesi medi Anthony Dirrell. Più di recente, he earned stoppage victories over Roamer Alexis Angulo in August 2020 and Ronald Ellis in March of this year. Benavídez è addestrato da suo padre José Sr., al fianco di suo fratello ed ex sfidante per il titolo, Jose Jr. In 2017, è diventato il più giovane campione dei pesi medi nella storia della boxe sconfiggendo Ronald Gavril su SHOWTIME a soli 20 anni. Rappresentando la sua nativa Phoenix, Ariz., Benavídez è passato da un prodigio di 15 anni a combattere con Gennady Golovkin e Peter Quillin, to world title contender with a 10-fight knockout streak from 2015 attraverso 2017, including a highlight-reel knockout of Rogelio Medina with a seven-punch combination that earned him his first title opportunity.

“I’m super excited to fight in front of my hometown fans,” said Benavídez. “It’s a dream come true for me to come back home as a two-time world champion. I’m training for Uzcategui like he’s a world champ because he has a lot of experience and he’s a hungry fighter. I know that he needs this win, but I won’t let that happen. I’m staying dedicated and motivated to win on August 28 on SHOWTIME and I want to look impressive doing it in order to get even bigger and better fights in the future.”

Born in Venezuela and fighting out of Tijuana, Messico, Uzcategui (31-4, 26 KO) captured a 168-pound world title in March of 2018 by stopping veteran contender Andre Dirrell after eight rounds. The 30-year-old put himself in position to fight for a title with four-straight stoppage victories from 2015 attraverso 2016, including a win over then-unbeaten Julius Jackson. Since losing the title to unbeaten champion Caleb Plant in January 2019, Uzcategui has rebounded to win three of his last four fights, including knockout wins in 2021 over Jaime Hernandez Lopez and Josue Obando.

“I’m excited to be back on the big stage for this fight,” said Uzcategui. “I know what I’m up against with Benavídez. Lui è un grande combattente, and that’s my biggest motivation. This is going to be a war and I can’t wait to give the people a great fight. Both of us come to brawl, so this is going to be a classic on August 28.”

The 28-year-old Benavídez (27-1, 18 KO) is the older brother of main event headliner David and returns to fight in his hometown of Phoenix for the first time in six years. A long-established contender, Benavídez will return to action for the first time since dropping a 147-pound title showdown to Terence Crawford in October 2018. Benavídez had previously earned wins over contenders such as Mauricio Herrera, Francisco Santana and Frank Rojas on his way to that world title opportunity.

“I’m really excited to be back in the ring after being out for a while,” said Benavidez. “I feel more mature, motivated and stronger than ever. Fighting alongside my brother and in my hometown is really a dream come true. I’m really looking forward to making a tremendous comeback. It doesn’t matter who they put in front of me, I guarantee that I’m going to take them out. No one is going to want to miss this night, because me and my brother are bringing the fireworks.”

A native of boxing-rich Buenos Aires, Argentina, Torres (17-3, 5 KO) enters this fight the winner of his last nine contests dating back to 2018. The 31-year-old will fight in the U.S. for the third time on August 28, having scored stateside victories over Cleotis Pendarvis in August 2020 and Louis Hernandez in February of this year. Torres most recently won a unanimous decision over Alexi Rivera in June as he prepares for his toughest fight to date against Benavídez.

“I’m very pumped up for this fight,” said Torres. “I want to thank my whole team for this opportunity to participate in such an important fight. This is a great chance for me to go to the next level against a great fighter who’s had an exceptional career. I will work very hard to get the victory on August 14 and raise high the flag of Argentina.”

Castro (26-0, 11 KO) has climbed the rankings since turning pro in 2012 as he seeks a shot at a super bantamweight championship. The Phoenix-native added two victories in 2020, defeating Jesus Ruiz in February before stopping longtime contender Cesar Juarez in four rounds in July. Castro was coming off a 2019 campaign that saw him score three victories, including 10-round unanimous decision triumphs over former title challenger Genesis Servania and veteran contender Mario Diaz.

“I’m very grateful for this opportunity to fight an excellent opponent in Oscar Escandon,", ha detto Castro. “I’m very motivated to put on a great performance in front of my hometown fans. Il primo agosto 28, I’m going to be ready to showcase all of my skills and hard work in the ring so I leave with my hand raised.”

A native of Ibague, Colombia, Escandon (26-5, 18 KO) has faced a slew of top contenders and champions including featherweight champion Gary Russell Jr. and super bantamweight champion Brandon Figueroa, plus hard-hitting contender Tugstsogt Nyambayar. Escandon captured an interim title in 2016 when he knocked out Robinson Castellanos to earn his world title shot against Russell. Più di recente, Escandon scored a first-round knockout over previously unbeaten contender Jhack Tepora in December of 2019.

“I’m very focused on training for this fight because I know a win can lead me back to another world title opportunity,” said Escandon. “Castro is a good young fighter who has a solid jab and can move.

Ontario, Calif. (Sette. 30) – In a marathon night of fights, Southern California fans were treated to performances in a variety of weight classes headlined by Brandon Figueroa (17-0-0, 12 KO) di Weslaco, TX against Columbian Oscar Escandon (25-5-0, 17 KO) in an action-packed 10-round super bantamweight bout that ended with a knockout by the young prospect Figueroa in the final round live on FS1 and FOX Deportes from Citizens Business Bank Arena.

 

 

 

Both Figueroa and Escandon picked up the pace early as they went toe-to-toe battling in an entertaining fight from the first bell. Figueroa, who typically fights at a distance, wanted to make a statement that he isn’t afraid to fight on the inside. An accidental head butt caused a large cut over the left eye of Figueroa, as blood poured the remainder of the fight. The combatants continued to throw high volumes of punches throughout the bout, but Figueroa remained more accurate and active as Escandon did his best to stay strong. In the tenth and final round, Figueroa sealed the win with a powerful combination that ended in a right upper cut to Escandon’s chin, sending him to the canvas rendering him unable to stand at minute 1:42.

 

 

 

“Escandon is tough. He is short and it was hard to get to the body,” Detto Figueroa. “I can fight both inside and outside, but his size did matter. I had to get in there and he wasn’t backing up. I was ready for this fight. Opportunities like this don’t come often so I had to take it and run with it. I have been training all summer and I am ready to take a few days off and get right back to it.”

 

 

 

“I knew Figueroa was good, but I was surprised at how tough he was,” said Escandon. “Everyone can get caught with a punch. I wasn’t tired. I just got caught. I am okay. I am going to keep going.”

 

 

 

The co-main event saw British Silver Medalist Joe Joyce (6-0, 6 KO) make his U.S. debut in a heavyweight fight domnation against Iago Kiladze (26-4-0, 18 KO) della Georgia. Thirty seconds into the second round, Joyce sent Kiladze through the ropes with a flurry of right hands. Kiladze recovered and fought back, surviving the remainder of the round. He entered the third throwing everything he could, but Joyce hit him with a hard hook to the body forcing him to the canvas again. The fight ended in the with 41 seconds to go in the fifth round as Joyce landed a hard left hook to Kiladze’s body knocking him out.

 

 

 

“It is great to be here,” said Joyce. “I started training in the United States because it was the best way to start my career here,” said Joyce. “It is great to have my sixth win here and I look forward to getting in the ring again soon. I think I made a great impression here tonight and I just want to continue that streak.”

 

 

 

Also featured on the card was fast-rising star Joey Spencer (5-0, 5 KO) of Union City, Calif. Against Cory Macon (0-3-0) of Durham, NC in a four-round middleweight bout. The 18-year-old Spencer, with dreams to become the youngest American with a world title, went to work immediately, going to the body of Macon. He continued to attack the body, but with a hard left hook, he sent Macon to the canvas, ending the fight just inside round number one at minute 2:36.

 

 

 

“I stay active and stay in the gym. It keeps me focused and ready,” said Spencer. “My goal is to become a world champion by age 20. Fans need to keep an eye on me and my career because I am here to stay.”

 

 

 

Efe Ajagba (7-0-0, 6 KO) faced Nick Jones (7-1-0, 5 KO) of Okmulgee, OK in a six-round heavyweight fight that didn’t even last one round. With a hard right hand, Ajagba sent Jones to the canvas with a devastating knockout in 2:25 della prima.

 

 

 

“Now we know why my last opponent walked out of the ring. He was afraid that was going to happen to him,” said Ajagba. “I watched tape of Jones and I knew he was slow. I was ready to attack the minute I got into the ring. I want anyone that my management will put in front of me. Sono pronto. I prepared for six rounds and I can’t wait to get back in the ring.”

 

 

 

In a televised swing bout, young prospect Jose Balderas (5-0-0) of Santa Maria, Calif. was tested by Mexican Ivan Martino (3-3-0, 3 KO) in un gallo, but was able to get his shots off, connected with several left hooks to Martino’s body.

 

 

 

“He is a strong guy and he kept coming, but we were ready for it,” said Balderas. “I think I got the rounds he needed. I have been improving since my first fight. I am going to keep learning and keep growing.”

 

 

 

Stephen Fulton (14-0-0, 6 KO) della città di combattimento di Philadelphia ha affrontato tedesco Meraz (61-50-2, 38 KO) del Messico ha aperto la trasmissione televisiva in un programma otto round piuma lotta.

Here is what the participants at the media event had to say Thursday from Fortune Gym in Los Angeles:

 

Victor Ortiz

 

 

 

“John Molina Jr. is a warrior, and it’s going to be two warriors on fight night. This is another chance for me to do what I love to do and what I have the most passion in the world for.

 

 

 

“You have to keep that fire burning inside you to keep competing in this sport. You have to go in there 100 miglia all'ora. This is a sport and I’m going in there to destroy him, then we can go have lunch after.

 

 

 

“I have lots of respect for Molina, but this is still boxing. He’s in my way right now and I’m going to knock him out of the way.

 

 

 

“I have one big task ahead of me and that’s John Molina Jr. settembre 30. I can’t focus on anyone else out there, as much as I may want to fight them. I have a tremendous challenge in front of me.

 

 

 

“I don’t feel that I have the size advantage. Molina is a big guy. I’m not too small or anything, but at the end of the day we’re going to have a good dance in that ring and there’s going to be no excuses.

 

 

 

“I’m working hard each day in camp to be ready for September 30. Whatever the coaches have been asking of me, I’ve been there and delivered.”

 

JOHN MOLINA JR.

 

 

 

“I know that Victor is going to be himself in there. We’re both veterans who have been been down this road before. He’s coming to win and that’s what excites me. I think everyone watching is going to get a treat on September 30.

 

 

 

“Victor is probably the physically bigger guy because he’s been at welterweight longer, but I think I carry the weight well. I’ve always been big for my weight classes so I think it will fit perfectly.

 

 

 

“Training is what I do. I’ve been down this road before so it’s really just built into my system to get in the gym and work hard. Everything has been going great. We’re on track with some hard work ahead to be ready for fight night.

 

 

 

“Victor deserves my undivided attention and he has it. Especially for this fight. He is a big strong guy who hits hard for 147-pounds. I never pick the easy guy when I move up in weight. My first fight at 140 was Lucas Matthysse and I expect fireworks for this fight as well.

 

 

 

“My ability to bounce back and deal with adversity in the ring is all about mindset. When I’m in that ring, I’m just 100 percent focused on doing what I have to do for my family. I’ve been blessed by boxing. I put it all on the line.

 

 

 

“I know I have to go through the fire every time I get into the ring. If I didn’t think that I’d be fooling myself. You can say what you want about Victor, but he’s always been in exciting fights and I’m going to have to deal with that style on September 30.”

 

KARLOS BALDERAS

 

 

 

“I envision myself going out there and breaking down my opponent little by little. I think we’ve kept the same kind of training going, but me and my brother are much more comfortable as pros now, so it’s gotten even more productive.

 

 

 

“I’m excited to keep working and getting my rounds in, while also having fun with this job I’m blessed to have. I’m not planning to let this fight go the distance and I’m going to take the opportunity to end it when I see it.

 

 

 

“Me and my brother both believe that the fight is really won in the gym. By the time you get up into the ring, it’s just sparring really. That helps me stay relaxed and focused on the work I’m there to do and not worried about anything going on around me.

 

JOSE BALDERAS

 

 

 

“I feel great going into this fight. I’ve learned a lot from each time I’ve gotten into the ring and I’m going to take that into this next fight to put on my best performance.

 

 

 

“My goal is always to go out there and be great. I’m ready to break my opponent down and do what I have to do.

 

 

 

“It’s exciting to be on the same card as my brother again. We definitely are still invested in each other’s fights. Hopefully we can each take care of business and be able to be there cheering each other on.”

 

Richard Schaefer, Presidente & CEO di Ringstar Sport

 

 

 

“It’s refreshing to see the level of respect from Ortiz and Molina. This is an extremely evenly matched fight with no clear favorite. These are fighters who can create a memorable night. It’s the perfect example of how styles make fights.

 

 

 

“Both of these men know how to entertain and are must-see television every time they step into the ring. Now they’re fighting each other and it’s got war written all over it. The fans watching on Sunday night and here in Ontario are in for a treat.

 

 

 

“I’m excited to see the continued development of Karlos Balderas on September 30. He is quickly making an impression throughout the sport and I believe he’s going to prove that he can live up to the promise in the not too distant future. Sunday will be another step toward what he can really accomplish.”

Victor Ortiz, Former Welterweight World Champion

 

 

 

“John Molina Jr. is an amazing warrior just like myself. He’s got a huge heart and he’s not going to back down and neither will I. E sarà una grande lotta.

 

 

 

“John and I have known each other for many years. I’m not one to bad mouth anybody, but especially this guy. We’re in this to go to war on September 30. I fight violently and I can’t change that. I hope at the end of the day it gives people a fun showdown.

 

 

 

“I’m happy to be back in this position as the main event and for it to be in Southern California is even better. I’m humbled to have this opportunity.

 

 

 

“I still feel strong and powerful and I’m not going to waste this time I have to still compete at the highest level. I’m ready to go out there and put on another war for the fans.

 

 

 

“John Molina Jr. actually told me at the Mayweather vs. McGregor press conference that he was moving up to 147 and I better get out of the way, so it’s funny now that we’re facing-off. We have a lot of mutual respect for each other. It doesn’t change anything though, we’re going to go out there and give it our all.”

 

JOHN MOLINA JR., L'ex sfidante titolo mondiale

 

 

 

“I’m grateful to Victor Ortiz and his team for accepting this challenge. We have nothing but respect for each other. My only prediction is that September 30 is going to be two guys coming to win and two guys refusing to go home with a loss.

 

 

 

“I know that Victor is going to be up in my face and that’s exactly my style and how I like to fight. It’s got all the makings of an all-action brawl.

 

 

 

“In this business we have to fight people we know very well. This is how we feed our families so we take it extremely seriously. I know we’re both going to be prepared and the best man will win.

 

 

 

“Every time I get into the ring it’s a war. My way of boxing has always been to fight the toughest guys and Victor is certainly no slouch. E 'un enorme combattente. He’s explosive and it’s going to make it a great fight.

 

 

 

“In a fight like this you’re going to have fireworks. Victor is a big, strong guy who’s coming to win. He wants to get back to the mountain top. But there’s no quit in me. That’s the intrigue for this fight. Can I out will him? We’ll find out on September 30.

 

 

 

“Every fight that I’ve had, has been my biggest fight. Everyone knows that I leave everything in the ring. Every fighter says that, but if you’ve ever watched my fights you know it’s the truth. It’s going be the same thing on September 30.”

 

JOE JOYCE, Unbeaten Heavyweight Prospect

 

 

 

“I have a plan, and a goal to get where I want to be to win a world title. I’ve settled into Big Bear to train and it’s like my second home. I’m looking forward to making my U.S. debut on September 30.

 

 

 

“I’m going to show the American fans my style and put on a really good show and a strong performance. Stay tuned and watch my progression here in the U.S., because I’m going to be heavyweight champion of the world.

 

 

 

“I’ve looked at Kiladze’s record and he has a good knockout percentage and he has a lot of good experience. He’s a strong guy but I’m just going to have to look a little more closely and work out his strengths and weaknesses and capitalize on that.

 

 

 

“I have a lot of really good sparring up in Big Bear for the next couple weeks and it’s going to get me ready for September 30. It’s a different structure and tempo in Big Bear than it was in the UK. It took a bit of time to adjust but now I feel comfortable and I feel like I fit into the group of boxers we have there. I see myself progressing and getting even stronger.”

 

Iago Kiladze, Heavyweight fighting out of Los Angeles

 

 

“I have a very good and strong opponent but I am in great shape and I’ve had an incredible training camp. I’m ready to go and I know I’m going to come out with the victory.

 

 

 

“Los Angeles is my adopted home and I love being able to fight here with those close to me watching. It’s going to give me more motivation to win this fight and help once fight week comes.

 

 

 

“I don’t worry too much about what my opponent has accomplished but I am mostly preparing myself to be my best. My team will have a great plan to guide me to this win on September 30.”

 

KARLOS BALDERAS, Unbeaten Super Lightweight Prospect

 

 

 

“I’m really focused right now on finishing 2018 strong so I can pick it right back up in 2019. I’m going to continue to take my time and move forward, but I have my eye on a world title. My brother Jose Balderas will also be on the card, so we’re looking to both put on a show for everyone watching.

 

 

 

“I’ve been getting better at controlling my emotions in the ring. Me and my brother get mentally prepared in camp so that when we get to the fight, it’s really just another day.

 

 

 

“We’re just going to continue working and growing and building up our fan base step-by-step. We might start fighting on different cards down the road, but for now we enjoy fighting on the same night.

 

 

 

“I don’t think it will be too long until I start moving my up the cards until eventually I’m the main event. I want to close this year strong so that in 2019 I’m in a position to get even closer to a title shot.”

 

Richard Schaefer, Presidente & CEO di Ringstar Sport

 

 

 

“This fight between Victor Ortiz and John Molina Jr. is a great cherry on top to a great month for the sport of boxing. This is an all-action brawl that will be toe-to-toe. That’s what the fight fans want to see and that’s what we are going to get.

 

 

 

“This card is absolutely loaded. It is full of young talent and experienced fighters who are sure to put on a great night of action for the fans at Citizens Business Bank Arena.

 

 

 

“I know that Karlos Balderas and Joe Joyce are fired up to have this chance to perform on this platform and I believe the fans are going to be in for a real treat. For Joe it’s a debut in the U.S. that gives him a chance to make a big first impression. Both of these guys are absolutely ready to step into the spotlight.”
