MIAMI, Oklahoma. (Ožujak 26, 2016) – On a night of knockouts, unbeaten super lightweight Regis "Rougarou" PROGRAMI (17-0, 14 Kos), Houston, scored his third consecutive dominant victory on ShoBox: Nova generacija, knocking out Mexico’s Aaron Herrera (21-5-1, 12 Kos) na 2:17 prvog kruga Petak U glavnom događaju naSHOWTIME od Buffalo Run Casinu u Miamiju, Oklahoma.

In scheduled eight-round bouts that all ended early, Ivan "The Beast" Baranchyk (10-0, 9 Kos), Brooklyn, NY, registered a 21-second, prvom krugu nokaut nad Nick Givhan (16-1-1, 10 Kos), od Kalamazoo, Mičigen, in a super lightweight scrap, Ukrainian welterweight Ivan "The Volk" Golub (16-0, 10 Kos, 5-0 u World Series of Boxing), Brooklyn, NY, scored a sixth-round TKO over Marlon Aguas (9-1, 6 Kos), Quito, Ekvador, a Justin DeLoach (14-1, 8 Kos), of Augusta, Ga., who is trained by former world champion Paul Williams, registered a fourth-round knockout over undefeated super welterweight and local favorite Dillon “White Lightning” Cook (16-1, 6 Kos).

All but Prograis and Baranchyk were making their ShoBox Debi. Kuhar, Aguas and Givhan became the 143rd, 144^th a 145^th boxers to suffer their first pro loss on the prospect developmental series.

“I can’t remember u 15 godina of working ShoBox a show with such emphatic knockouts – and two of them being spectacular knockout of the year candidates,'', Rekao je ShoBox stručnjak analitičar Steve Farhood.

PROGRAMI, 5-noga-9, 27-year-old originally from New Orleans, was fighting in his second consecutive ShoBox main event and second scheduled 10-rounder. The aggressive-minded southpaw pounded Herrera’s body from the opening bell; five of his six power punches were targeted to the Mexican’s midsection. A left hook to the body downed Herrera, who crumpled to the canvas and wasn’t able to beat the count.

“I was prepared to go 10 puna kola, the last thing I was expecting was a first-round knockout,’’ said Prograis, who was making his 2016 debi. “I’m making hard fights look easy but they’re really not. It’s all the daily work in the gym all day every day that is paying off for me. Tonight was fun. I’m very satisfied.

“I want all the fighters in my division to know one thing: I’m coming after all of you.’’

“He just got me with a great shot, it was simple as that,’’ said Herrera, who making his second start in the United States. “There’s really not that much that I can say.’’

The highly regarded Baranchyk – making his second eight-round start and second in a row on ShoBox – knocked out Givhan with a huge left hand with the first power punch of the fight. He required only two punches to finish the 17-fight veteran. Iznenađujuče, it wasn’t the quickest professional KO for the Belarus native. Baranchyk owns a three-second KO over Angel Figueroa iz 2015.

“I’m very happy,’’ Baranchyk said. “I was expecting a much longer fight. I was focused on a full fight. But knockouts are good. I know fans like knockouts.

“I’ll take a week off and then go back to the drawing board. I’m looking ahead to fighting again soon and on ShoBox again.’’

Givhan was shocked with the result.

“I’m good but I am very, very disappointed,” Givhan said. “This is the lowlight of my life. For me to get knocked out by someone I know I can beat is just the worst feeling. And there’s nothing worse than for it to happen on national television.

“No one expects 20-second fights. Upravo sam dobio je uhvaćen, that’s all.”

Golub, a former standout amateur from Ukraine, had to rally from the first knockdown of his career. “This was a little tougher than I expected,'', Rekao je. “But it’s all about learning. I had to go through some adversity to win. You don’t know adversity until it hits you in the face.”

Golub was the more active fighter against the awkward Aguas, who was at his best when matters turned ugly. In a bizarre second round, southpaw Golub scored a questionable knockdown as Aguas hit the canvas while clinching and off-balance. Aguas bounced back seconds later to knock down Golub with a short right, sending the Ukrainian to the canvas for the first time in his career.

“I was surprised that I got knocked down, but he caught me off-balance,’’ Golub said. “Overall, I am very happy with my performance.”

Golub resumed control after the second and a series of combinations in the sixth sent a gassed Aguas falling back through the ropes in the closing seconds of the round. Aguas somehow rose to his feet to beat the count, but his trainer quickly waved off the bout when the Ecuadorian returned to the corner.

Aguas said an injury, not fatigue, was the reason his corner stopped the fight at the end of the sixth. “I hurt my right bicep in the fifth round,'', Rekao je. “That’s the reason we stopped it. I wasn’t that tired.”

U uvodnom borbi za TV prijenos, DeLoach made Williams a winner in his training debut. With Williams looking on from his wheelchair in the corner, DeLoach, a winner of four in a row, dropped Cook with a devastating, counter-overhand right at 2:47 of the fourth that sent Cook awkwardly to the canvas in a knockout of the year candidate.

“I’m happy with my performance,’’ said DeLoach, who was the more active fighter, bacanje gotovo 100 more punches over the four rounds. “This was a great experience fighting a guy like this in his backyard. I enjoyed the crowd and their enthusiasm. It motivated me. I got a little lazy in parts of the second and third rounds, but I listened to my corner and picked it up on offense and got my punch count up and going again.

“Dillon was a good fighter who moved a lot. I know I have to do better cutting off the ring. He landed with a left a second before I landed that big right. This was a great win for all of us. I’m ready to do this again.’’

“Look at me, look at my shirt. It feels like I was sweating worse than when I fought,’’ said Williams, who’s pro career came to a sudden and tragic end when he was paralyzed from the waist down after a motorcycle accident in May 2012. “I am very relieved to get this one out of the way. I’m very happy for Justin and Mr. Pete (Paul’s longtime manager and trainer and DeLoach’s assistant trainer, George Williams)

"Ja sam u redu, all things considered,’’ said Cook. “He was a tough guy. I’ve never been knocked out before so I don’t exactly know how to act. I felt I was in the fight until I was caught. It’s disappointing, but this was a great learning experience for me. It can only help me in the long run.’’

A taped interview with Williams and ShoBox analyst Steve Farhood aired prior to the bout. In the discussion, Farhood asked the former two-time champ why he chose to return as a trainer for the first time since the 2012 motorcycle accident left him paralyzed. Full Interview:http://s.sho.com/1WPrJ28

"Mogu biti gladak ljevak ili mogu svađa. Ja samo volim da se bori, što je razlog zašto sam počeo u boksu. Moja razmišljanje je lupati i borba, kad ga se svodi na to. Ponekad, ako ne udariti mi dosadi pa sam ga pomiješati malo više tako da ću dobiti pogodak, a onda sam se vratiti. Mogu se prilagoditi svakom stilu.

"Ovo je moj treći borba na ShoBox i drugi glavni događaj. Pozdravljam pritisak, ali u isto vrijeme znam da sam ga ignorirati i samo uživati ​​i zabaviti se u tu.

"Mentalno, Osjećam da sam spreman za veliku borbu protiv bilo koje od glavnih pretendenata, ali znam one vrste borbe su još malo niz liniju za mene. Još uvijek imam puno posla za napraviti; Moram držati ga lupa dok sam to sve u redu dobiti.

"Veselim se dobrim borbi sutra. ''

"Ovo je brigu o poslovanju. Bio sam 12 kola prije. I’ve fought some good fighters with good records. To je samo moj drugi bore u Americi, ali sam mnogo naučio od prve, te da će definitivno pomoći mi. Imam više povjerenja. To neće biti novo iskustvo za mene.

"Ja sam se borio s lijevo-handers prije pa nakon par rundi, Sigurna sam da ću se osjećati ugodno. Ja sam definitivno dolaze pobijediti. Ja ne mogu čekati da čuti otvaranje zvono. ''

Oy BARANCHYK

"To je 100 posto je najbolji momak smo suočeni. Nick je veliki borac, a mi ga ne možemo podcijeniti. Znamo da sve što se može dogoditi u boksu. Stavio sam na rad u teretani i sad moram raditi svoj posao u ringu.

"Ja sam bušač, Volim ga donijeti, a ja dolazim za nokaut.

"Ja sam samo 23 ali ja rade vrlo teško i osjećam dolazim zajedno. Ja sam u teretani cijelo vrijeme. Jedna od glavnih stvari koje rade na najviše je mirnoća u ringu. Osjećam se kao da sam se smiri više i rade na ubod, ali to je još uvijek nešto radimo na.

"Ti jednostavno ne mogu otići i pokucati svima iz. To nije tako jednostavno. Morate postaviti udarce ponekad. Ja nikada ne će se promijeniti od toga da bude prirodna bušač, moj tim ne pokušava oduzeti vatru u meni, oni samo žele da se smiri. ''

NICK GIVHAN

"Ovo je velika prilika i osjećam blagoslovljen biti uzimajući ga, ali to je nešto što sam radio prema godinama. Osjećam to je mjesto gdje sam trebao biti u ovoj fazi moje karijere. Samo moram doći u ring kako bi bili sigurni da obrađuju svoje poslovanje u ringu

"On je definitivno jedan od najtežih protivnika sam s kojima se suočavaju. On je veliki, snažan i udari teško cijelu borbu. Ali ja sam najteži on je suočen.

"Ovo oblikuje se kao boksač u odnosu na bušač borbi koja mi ide na ruku. On može izaći pokazujući na prvi, ali nakon što je dotaknuo on može biti frustriran. To je ono što će se iskoristiti, njegova nad-agresivnost.

IVAN GOLUB

"Ja sam bio zaustavljen zbog ozljede moje lijeve strane, ali to je potpuno ozdravio i spreman sam. Ja sam imao puno sparing.

Seneka, MO (Ožujak 18, 2016) - Na Ožujak 25, junior middleweight prospect Dillon “White Lightning” Cook will find himself in a familiar place but with a new challenge when he battles Justin DeLoach in an eight round bout on ShoBox: The New Generation at the Buffalo Run Casino in Miami, OK.

Tickets for the event promoted by DiBella Entertainment and Holden Productions are $45, $55 a $75 and can be purchased by logging onto Buffalorun.com or Stubwire.com.

Nepobjedivosti 16 professional bouts with six wins by knockout, Cook’s fought five of his last seven matches at the Buffalo Run, winning handily each time. A member of Holden Productions’ “Four State Franchise”, the popular Cook is from nearby Seneca, MO and fought in front of sellout crowds on multiple occasions. While these are definite advantages for Cook, DeLoach comes into the ring with an impressive background.

Against DeLoach, 13-1 (7 KO-a), Cook is taking a significant step up in competition and will do so before a national audience. Hailing from Augusta, GA and based in Houston, TX, DeLoach trained alongside top fighters including IBF junior middleweight champion Jermall Charlo, undefeated Jermell Charlo, Bryan Vera and Edwin Rodriguez amongst others. Nedavno, Team DeLoach announced that his new chief second is former two division champion Paul Williams and highly respected George Peterson will work as an assistant.

To prepare for DeLoach, Cook’s been training out of the Heartland Boxing Gym and travels to various gyms for sparring as he anxiously waits for the opening bell on Ožujak 25.

“I’m excited for the fight but trying not to let the pressure of fighting on TV get to me,” said Cook, a former National Junior Golden Gloves titlist and six time Kansas City Golden Gloves winner. "(To specifically prepare for DeLoach) we’re working on (technique to counter) his style. DeLoach is a good fighter I’ve seen him fight a few times he’s fast and a busy fighter but I’m pretty fast myself. I expect to match his speed, if not beat it.”

Cook also acknowledges his advantages and never second guessed taking the step up in competition.

“I’m a smart fighter and can adapt well (plus the) hometown crowd is definitely a benefit. I knew we’d step (up the competition in the near future) and this is a great time for it. Imao sam 16 professional fights and am ready to show the world that I’m capable of going to the next level.”

Cook’s promoter, Tony Holden, is confident in his fighter and believes the locals will come out droves to support him.

“I’m proud to see him get a shot on a national stage. He’s a key part of the “Four State Franchise” and is a big crowd draw. He’s worked very hard and I expect him to put forth a tremendous performance. I’d like to personally thank Showtime as well for this incredible opportunity.”

The Cook-DeLoach bout opens up a quadrupleheader live on Showtime (10:30 PM ET). The card also features highly regarded junior welterweight Regis Prograis (16-0) against Aaron Herrera (29-4-1), two showdowns where somebody’s 0 must go between unbeaten welterweights Ivan Golub (10-0) and Marlon Aguas (9-0) and junior welterweights Ivan Baranchyk (9-0) vs Nicholas Givhan (16-0-1).

FORMER WORLD CHAMPION TO TRAIN PROSPECT JUSTIN DELOACH

IN FOURTH FIGHT ADDED TO Petak, OŽUJAK 25,

SHOBOX: NOVA GENERACIJA televizijska emisija

“I’m scared all over again, like this is my first fight.” – Paul Williams

Super Welterweight DeLoach Takes on Undefeated Local Favorite Dillon Cook;

Promising Meets Aaron Herrera in Main Event;

Uživo na Showtime^® Na 10:30 poslije podne. I/PT

NEW YORK (Ožujak 15, 2016) – Former two-time world champion Paul Williams, who’s pro career came to a sudden and tragic end when he was paralyzed from the waist down after a motorcycle accident in May 2012, is back in boxing as a trainer.

The popular Williams will work the corner of once-beaten Justin DeLoach (13-1, 7 Kos) when DeLoach faces undefeated super welterweight and local favorite Dillon Cook (16-0, 6 Kos) in the opening eight-round bout of what is now a ShoBox: Nova generacija quadrupleheader na Petak, Ožujak 25, živjetiSHOWTIME (10:30 poslije podne. I/PT, odgođeno na Zapadnoj obali) iz Buffalo Run Casino u Miami, Oklahoma.

DeLoach is the first boxer to be trained by Williams, the former 154-pound southpaw who has been confined to a wheelchair since the accident.

“I guess I was being selfish at first,“, rekao je Williams. “I didn’t want to deal with the fight game. I wanted to be the one fighting. But that changed.”

Williams was reluctant to train fighters for a long time. Bilo jeGeorge Peterson, who managed and trained Williams from the time the boxer was a skinny kid with little amateur experience until his career ended, that helped persuade “The Punisher” to return to the ring. Williams trains his pupil at a private gym in his hometown of Aiken, S.C.

“You know me, I really didn’t want to do this,’’ Williams said. “But finally after three or four years of George practically begging me to try and do it, this opportunity came along and I decided to give it a shot.

“Everything is about timing. I started thinking about it, George kept asking me and messing with me about it, one thing led to another, and I finally said I’d take a stab at it.
Williams, who is enjoying his new job description, admits there are some pre-fight jitters.

“I’m scared all over again, like this is my first fight. Sada, I have to think about everything that Mr. Pete was thinking about when I was fighting. I have to try and teach Justin what I knew how to do.

“George and I accomplished a lot. He made me a world champion; before that, no one knew who he or I was. We were just a couple of guys from Aiken, S.C. We gave fans fights to remember.

“I was the fighter the press labeled as ‘Most feared in boxing.’ But that’s over for me now. I’m jumping into a whole new thing. It’s been an adjustment but I’m glad I’m doing it.’’

In his role as a trainer, Williams’ mindset has changed drastically from his fighting days. “Look, I always feel good,'', Rekao je. “What’s happened has happened. Tako je kako je. This is my first time stepping back into the world. Volim boks.

“What I don’t want to see is a fighter getting hurt. This is a hard sport. I know when I was in there I was always going for broke. But I want Justin, all fighters actually, to come out of the ring the same way they came in. Pobijediti ili izgubiti, I don’t want to see anybody get hurt.’’

On DeLoach, Williams je rekao, “He’s a good fighter and now he’s in the spotlight. I want to do my best in the training world to get him at his peak. I hope he does his best. I’d love to one-up George with Justin.’’

Becoming the best takes strenuous work on a daily basis, and Williams was no stranger to putting in the hours.

“I never took a shortcut,'', Rekao je. “You take shortcuts, you know what’ll happen. I took the long road home when I was fighting and fans, Borci, everybody knew what to expect when I stepped in the ring.

“Justin isn’t like this, but one thing I know is that fighters think they’re slick. Dobro, you can’t pull anything over me. Ja sam bio tamo, seen it all.’’

A, kao i uvijek, he’ll have George Peterson by his side.

“I’m just helping Paul,’’ said Peterson, who will serve as Williams’ assistant trainer. “So far, he’s doing great.”

It will be the ShoBox a 2016 Debi — and toughest fight to date — for both DeLoach and Cook.

DeLoach was a top amateur, competing in the USA Boxing National Championships in 2012. He won a National Silver Golden Gloves title when he was 13.

The 22-year-old DeLoach, of Augusta, Ga., has won three in a row since suffering his lone loss to Cesar Villa vel. 6, 2015. That was before he started training with Williams.

“This has been a total blessing, and I say that every day,” DeLoach said. “Thank God. He’s the one who brought the two of us together, that’s the main thing. Paul loves it, just to be back. I think he was scared at first, his reputation was at stake and so was mine.

“But he’s been so helpful – just in the mental side of things. I was already a good boxer but he’s taken me to another level mentally. He’s been pushing me, criticizing me, giving me instructions and picking my brain.”

DeLoach and Williams grew up just 30 minutes down the road from each other.

“Me and Paul, we’ve known each other our whole lives,’’ DeLoach said. “I’m from Augusta, Ga., and he was right across in Aiken. We knew each other when I was coming up as an amateur.
