Robert The Ghost Guerrero Announces Retirement

german 2
GILROY, TAL (Xullo 17, 2017)After giving fans some of the most thrilling fights in boxing, which spanned over sixteen hard fought years, Robert “The Ghost” Guerreiro is announcing his retirement.
“Primeiro, I want to thank God for allowing me to have a wonderful career. I’m a kid from a small town in Gilroy, California, who made it to the mountain top of the boxing world. When I was a young kid growing up, I always believed in myself, but never in my wildest dreams would I have imagined a small-town kid like myself, would be fighting in front of millions of fans.
I was blessed to win multiple world titles in four-divisions. A boxer’s career is a long and tough road. Many tears were shed, lots of blood, and tons of sweat. Many miles were traveled, thousands of rounds sparred, none were easy and nothing was ever given to me. I earned everything I got the old fashion way. I never ducked anyone and fought the best fighters in the world. I fought my way through every obstacle to make sure my fans enjoyed every second, of every round, of my fights.
I competed at super-bantamweight (122 lb.) and won world titles across multiple weight classes, closing my career at welterweight (147 lb.), fighting the big guys 25 pounds heavier. A good friend always told me I was God’s warrior, born to fight. I enjoyed every minute of every war. I represented my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ with the bible verse Acts 2:38 on my trunks. If I reached one person and brought that person closer to Christ, then it was all worth it.
I want to thank some very important people in my career starting with the most important person, my wife Casey, who has been with me every step of the way, my soul mate, my sweetheart, the one and only love of my life. My father/trainer Ruben Guerrero Sr. He’s the one who started it all and made me the man I am today, and the champion I was in the ring. He’s one of the best trainers in the world and I hope to be working side by side with him in the future. My mother Marcy Guerrero for being a great mother and supporter. My co-manager Bob Santos for all the sacrifices he made to get me to the topI will always remember the early days when we made the most with very liitle. He always had my back and looked out for me like I was his brother. His wife Diane Santos who did a lot of secretarial work for me during my whole career. Both my grandparents on Martinez and Guerrero sides for believing in me. My brother’s Sammy, Ruben Jr., Víctor, Barulhento and especially Eric, who has been with me my whole career, my shadow every step of the way, my right-hand man. My mother and father in-law, Cheo de cunchas e Cary O’neal. My cutman Ruben Gomez. My good friends, Pastor Mark Wilson, Dave Castro, Pastor Chris Avila, John Mersho, e Albert Guarado. My uncle Russel Sr., Russel Jr., Uncle Ricky, Hector Catano e Greg Amundson. I want to thank my co-manager Luis Decubas Jr. for taking my career to the next level. Santos and Decubas Jr. are more than managers, they are family to me. My publicist Mario Serrano, who has also been with me the whole ride, he is also family to me. All the fans and the community who stuck by my side when my wife was battling cancerI will never forget the love you showed. There are so many people who have helped me, if I leave anyone off, thank you for everything.
In closing, I want to thank the most special man I’ve ever met in my boxing career, and possibly lifetime, a man who always does what’s best for the fighter, a man who has changed the sport of boxing, a man who has helped bless me and my family with a great life, and that person is my advisor Al Haymon. Not only is Al Haymon a spectacular advisor, he is a wonderful human being as well, a great man, and someone who cares. In a sport where most managers, promotores, and trainers turn their back on a fighter, when they no longer can perform, or are no longer beneficial to their interest, Haymon stands tall. Love and loyalty is tough to find in the boxing game, but for any boxer looking for it, you don’t have to look far, reach out to Al Haymon. I want to thank everyone, the fans included. I hope you guys appreciated the guts and glory I left in the ring. God bless you all.~ Robert “The Ghost” Guerreiro

O dobre campión do mundo Beibut Shumenov Retírase debido a unha grave lesión ocular

Para divulgación inmediata
LAS VEGAS (Xuño 26, 2017) – Dous división Asociación Mundial de Boxeo (WBA) Campión do mundo Shumenov Beibu renunciou ao seu título mundial de peso cruceiro da AMB, debido á súa lesión no ollo que acabou coa súa carreira, e anunciou a súa retirada do ring.
“Lamentablemente renunciei ao meu título de peso cruceiro da AMB e retireime do boxeo por mor dunha traumática lesión ocular sufrida a semana anterior á miña última loita programada.,” Shumenov dixo desde a súa casa de Las Vegas. “Estou moi decepcionado que a miña carreira no boxeo rematara así, pero, desgraciadamente, as lesións son parte deste deporte e non podo facer nada. Aínda teño a visión borrosa e teño que someterme a unha cirurxía adicional o mes que vén para tentar reparar máis para non arriscarme a cegueira. (dereito) ollo.

“Gustaríame dar as grazas á miña familia, o meu equipo ao longo dos anos, amigos e fans polo seu apoio continuo durante todos estes anos. Estaba orgulloso de levar o cinto do campionato da AMB durante moitos anos como campión de dúas divisións. Estou agradecido ao presidente da AMB Gilberto Jesús Mendoza, seu pai, e todos os da miña familia WBA. Foi todo un paseo e espero con moita ilusión o próximo capítulo da miña vida co meu fillo e os futuros esforzos.”

Shumenov (17-2, 11 Kos), un 2004 Kazajistán Olympian, estaba programado para enfrontarse ao campión interino da AMB yunier Dorticós (21-0, 20 Kos) no mes de abril 29th evento principal de Premier Boxeo League en FS1 e Fox Deportes, Da cidade de Sam vive en Las Vegas.

Durante as súas últimas sesións de sparring programadas, Shumenov sufriu unha ferida no ollo que requiriu unha cirurxía inmediata, obrigándoo a retirarse da súa Abril 29 loita contra os Dorticos.

A principios deste mes, a AMB recibiu unha carta do cirurxián ocular de Shumenov, Dr. Kent L. Ben, quen escribiu o seguinte: “Señor. Beibut Shumenov ten un problema ocular grave, unha erosión corneal recorrente do seu ollo dereito, que con loita continuada, pono en risco de perder permanentemente a vista.

“A miña opinión médica é que debería absterse permanentemente de combater, adestramento e boxeo debido á gravidade do dano no seu ollo e ao alto risco de sufrir máis danos de discapacidade visual., incluíndo a posibilidade de perda permanente da visión.”
A AMB aceptou a renuncia de Shumenov ao seu campionato, sinalando que expresou o seu agradecemento e orgullo pola súa carreira profesional coa AMB.

Os últimos tres anos da carreira de Shumenov foron marcados pola inactividade, no que loitou só tres veces por falta de apoio directivo, a pesar de adestrar a diario, en plena forma e sempre preparado para loitar. De feito, case espallou 400 roldas desde a súa última loita (Maio 21, 2016) en previsión de, primeiro, unha loita de unificación con Denis Lebedeve despois pola súa loita contra os Dórticos. Tampouco pasou, con todo, xa que a política do boxeo permitiu a Lebedev evitar loitar contra Shumenov, quen derrotou BJ Flores e, a continuaciónJúnior Anthony Wright en loitas consecutivas de eliminación da AMB para ser o retador obrigatorio de Lebedev.

Mesmo a loita obrigatoria de Shumenov contra Dórticos atrasouse innecesariamente porque Dórticos’ promotor, Promocións Caribe, incumpriu o seu dereito a promover a loita que gañara por bolsa, seguido de continuos e numerosos cambios de data de febreiro a marzo ata a aterraxe definitiva Abril 29.

Shumenov, de 33 anos, retírase como o primeiro e único campión do mundo de dúas divisións ata agora procedente de Kazajistán., así como o récord de menos loitas necesarias para gañar o campionato mundial de peso semipesado, 10.

Durante a súa 9 1/2 -ano de carreira profesional, Shumenov derrotou a catro campións do mundo – Gabriel Campillo, Byron Mitchell, William Joppy e Montell Griffin – así como os retadores do título mundial Epifanio Mendoza, Vlacheslav Uzelkov, Danny Santiago, Enrique Ornelas, Tamas Kovacs, BJ Flores e Júnior Wright.
