Cobbs was dropped three times in the third round, one was ruled a push, and the end came when referee Jackie Morrell halted the action at the 2:51 as a reeling Cobbs was blasted backwards from the Rivera’s previously mentioned uppercut.

I got into boxing and enjoyed watching Miguel Cotto dan Mike Tyson. I even have some of Cotto’s tattoos. Sekarang, I’m more of a boxer, like a Pernell Whitaker atau 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 — pengurus A.J. Galante, Ketua jurulatih Bennie Little, cut-man Luis Marichal, strength-and-conditioning coach Chris Mulfalmi dan 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 pada pusingan keempat.
“We enjoy working with Team Bordoy,” promoter 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 this setting, the gloves are off and both fighters don their “penulis” hat to tag-team the foreword for Clark’s book.

“Adrian’s heart is where it’s needed,” McGirt said. “Everyone says they are looking out for professional boxers, but he is showing (by example) that he really looks out for the fighters. Adrian and this book are great for the sport of boxing and for the athletes.”

Protect Yourself at All Times: A Guide for Professional Boxers will be endorsed by Everlast; the leading brand in Boxing for protective gear for fighters inside and outside of the ring. Clark will have a video blog on the Everlast website beginning July 6th, dengan 3 minute summary of each chapter of this book.

“This book offers invaluable insights into the sport of boxing. Clark has shed light in grey space that exists in boxing and has effectively empowered professionals and amateurs through this important piece of work.” (Chris Beadon, Sports Marketing Manager at Everlast)

Books will be available Ogos 14, 2016 at Barnes & Noble stores and for order at Amazon and Everlast.com. Nook and Kindle versions of the book will also be available.
