Boxing fans packed the Manchester Downtown Hotel Wednesday night to take in a spectacular night of elite amateur boxing. This was the final stop on a three-city tour of Boston and Springfield, Massachusetts and Manchester, New Hampshire. The scheduled fights featured Team USA amateurs facing the best amateur boxers from Ireland. By the final bell, Ireland managed to finish the eight bouts of the evening with a tie score, their best outcome of the tour. Team USA won the first two duals of the tour in Boston and Springfield, masing-masing, oleh puluhan 8-4 dan 7-3.

 

Wednesday’s fights were not all about winning, Walau bagaimanapun. For the majority of the boxers involved it was a great opportunity to fine-tune their techniques and get some much-needed international competition experience. Some of Wednesday night’s best performers will also likely be representing their respective countries in the upcoming 2020 Sukan Olimpik.

 

 

The main event of the night featured 2016 Youth World Championships Bronze Medalist Richard Torrez dominating 3-time Irish National Champion Dean Gardiner. The Irish fighter’s towering height and long reach simply could not overcome the fast pace and excellent defensive posture of the shorter American.

 

Torrez spent the first round executing masterful feinting and punch slipping while scoring with some bombing hooks. Torrez changed levels, used slick head movement, and never let his foot off the gas as Gardiner plodded forward with an unbalanced and wild approach in the early going. A thudding body shot connected for the Irishman in the first, but not much else.

 

Torrez kept up the quick work rate in the next frame, unleashing left and right hooks and landing cleanly through much of the round. He scored to the body and head easily, though much of the round saw his opponent covering up and waiting for openings. One straight left from Torrez sent his opponent reeling for a moment, but the taller man recovered and did land a phenomenal left hook to the head of Torrez as he was fighting off the ropes. Gardiner tried landing mostly straight punches on the outside and seemed unable to turn over his punches in close.

The third round saw both fighters slugging it out until the final bell with one of the wildest back and forth exchanges of the night, but it was too little and too late for Gardiner. He just could not get his range dialed in. Torrez just outworked his opponent again and landed a few slick uppercuts to go with his thundering right and left hooks. He used the jab sparingly but effectively, spending much of the final frame targeting Gardiner’s body. Torrez earned the Unanimous Decision win with his performance and didn’t take more than a handful of hard shots in the process.

 

Kelly Harrington, a World Championship Silver Medalist from Ireland, likely had her team’s most masterful performance in cruising to a unanimous decision victory over Stacia Suttles in the opening bout of the night. Suttles struggled to keep herself at the ideal punching range against the unrelenting attack of Harrington in the first round, spending much of the three minutes bobbing and weaving to try to avoid the crisp combinations of her opponent. Suttles did land her jab fairly consistently, and she did begin to put some combos together late in the round, but Harrington is an absolute expert when it comes to head movement. She looked as if Floyd Mayweather, Jr. was one of her coaches as she utilized a hands-low technique with constant feints, punch slipping and level changing. The first round saw her landing a beautiful straight left to the head and a fantastic body and head punching combination that landed solidly. She unleashed some fierce hooks, although a few were wild haymakers. Below is a picture of Harrington during one of just a few brief moments in the fight where she brought both hands up to protect her face.

Suttles caught Harrington with some glancing and flush shots in the second round, but she seemed to be having trouble getting power behind her punches. She did trade some decent right hands with her opponent, but it was clear by the end of the round that she just wasn’t going to be able to find any rhythm in the fight due to the craftiness of her opponent. Harrington spent the same round perfecting her range with crisp 1-2 combos and wild lead rights connecting. Harrington also scored some powerful left hooks with a picture perfect straight right landing just a few moments later.
The third round was more of the same for both fighters. Suttles worked much of the frame to track her opponent down, but every time she unloaded, she paid for it. One particularly solid left hook landed late in the round, but it just wasn’t enough. Harrington spent much of the last three minutes trying to connect with winging right hands. She landed one of her hardest punches of the fight late in the round and momentarily stunned her opponent before the bell to end the fight. Harrington took away a unanimous decision and looks to be one of the most promising boxers at her weight in the running for the 2020 Sukan Olimpik.
Yet another example of height somehow being a disadvantage played a role in the other female fight on the card. Team USA’s Leah Cooper (#2 US Female Middleweight) used ducking and feinting to avoid the taller Aoife Burke’s long reach. Cooper fought from a semi-crouch, making it hard for Burke to land with any significant power on the majority of her punches. The 8-time National Irish Champion
had a few spots in the fight where she regained control of the action, but Cooper made the right adjustments to minimize the threats.
Cooper executed a swarming attack to begin the first round, firing off 1-2 combos and backing Burke up. She remained patient and persistent throughout the frame, staying low and out of range of Burke’s power shots. Burke exhibited excellent defense, but she could only manage to throw and land one punch at a time. She showcased a crisp jab throughout the round, but it just didn’t deter Cooper. Burke had her best moments of the round toward the final bell, mixing up shots to the body and head, including a hard right hook to the head.
Burke came out for the second round on fire, storming Cooper with rapid fire 1-2 combos and hooks. She also mixed in a slick uppercut that found Cooper’s chin. Cooper weathered the storm, only falling into the trap briefly. She regained her composure, landed some excellent counter punches, and turned what might have been Burke’s best round into the Irish champ’s worst. Cooper remained calm and cool, despite taking some of the hardest shots her opponent landed in the fight. She landed some superb 1-2 combos after Burke’s attack fizzled, eventually opening a cut near Burke’s left eye and bloodying her nose. Cooper’s hard body punching also sent Burke crouching down to the canvas briefly after a solid right hook.
Burke started the third round a bit late after getting checked out and cleared by the ringside doctor. She again started out with a flurry of bombing punches. She targeted the body and the head, but Cooper collected herself once again and went back to work. She changed levels well and began connecting with furious hooks, first to the body and then back up to the head. She also kept up an active jab and landed multiple 1-2 combos. Burke did manage another late flurry in the closing moments of the fight, but Cooper still came away with the unanimous decision win.
Team USA Lightweight James Browning came into Wednesday night’s bout with Ireland’s Francis Cleary as a two-time USA Boxing Champion. Cleary, a nine-time Irish National Champion, represented Browning’s first crack at international competition. Kedua-dua pejuang mempunyai detik mereka, but it would be Browning getting the win at the end of three entertaining, back-and-forth rounds of action.
Browning spent the first round establishing a higher work rate than his opponent and using lots of movement to avoid Cleary’s attack. He also landed a consistent jab, mixing up his body and head shots well. Though he won the round, Browning took plenty of risks and paid the price. Cleary picked his spots and unleashed the more clean and powerful punches when he was able to land. He just couldn’t connect enough, and he clinched out of trouble almost every time he wound up fighting in close quarters.
Clearly landed some more sharp bombs in the second frame, getting more aggressive and starting to track down his constantly moving opponent. A thumping left hook near the end of the round connected with Browning’s head and impressed the packed house of fans. Masih, Browning remained busy and did well in the slugging exchanges between the two fighters. He was often wild, but the work output kept Cleary from stealing the round.
Cleary came out for the third round with renewed ferocity, engaging in a wild brawl with Browning. It was the best round of the fight for Cleary, and Browning could not maintain the elusiveness he displayed in the prior rounds. The Irish fighter landed another booming left hook in the round, featured perfectly-timed counters, and kept punching right up to the bell. Browning definitely appeared to be frustrated and tired by the end of the fight. Masih, two out of the three judges were sure he deserved the win, earning a split decision victory.
The next bout pitted eight-time Irish National Champion Wayne Kelley against 13-time US National Champion Adrian Benton in a close welterweight battle. Both young fighters had bright spots in the match, but Kelley managed to squeak out the split decision victory with a crafty, gutsy effort.
Benton had the better first round thanks to a swarming attack. He worked in and out of range with 1-2 combos and sparing hooks. He used all his angles well, pivoting out of trouble and into effective range with ease. Kelley struggled to land counters until the final moments of the round when he landed his own flurry of 1-2 combos.
Kelley started the second round with much more energy and poise. He landed early and often, winging left hands and opening up a cut on Benton’s lip. Benton slipped some of the more dangerous punches, blocked shots well and landed some crisp, hard shots of his own. His best exchange was a left and right hook to the head that landed near the middle of the round.
Kelley slowed down a bit in the final round, unable to find his ideal range. He landed some hard right hands, a well-placed body shot and unloaded with a late flurry. Benton kept busy early in the round and artfully ducked under a bombing right hook from Kelley. The judges seemed more impressed with Kelley’s composure in the final two rounds as Benton kept getting drawn in to sloppy brawling. Kelley edged out the win by a 2-1 margin.
The light welterweights came next, producing another tight contest. Ireland’s Caoimhin Ferguson fought Team USA’s Charlie Sheehy with a slightly better tactical approach, earning another split decision victory for his squad.
Sheehy took on a more cautious and patient approach in the first round, waiting for the perfect moment to throw and land. His best punches of the round included a hard right hand to the body and a starching jab. Ferguson put in more work in the frame, scoring on multiple hooks to the head and unleashing wild and crazy flurries a few times. One particular left hook crashed hard into Sheehy’s head in the final moments of the round.
Ferguson landed some decent shots in the second round, but Sheehy was much more composed. He worked around the wild-swinging, hard-charging assault by keeping his distance and scoring from outside with some crisp rights to the chin. The fighters exchanged some hooks to the body and wound up in a clinch before the end of the round.
Sheehy struggled to string punches together in the final round. Though he had a nice straight right hand working for him, Ferguson was able to penetrate his defense. Ferguson landed a thumping left hook early and went on to land a few more bombs before losing his mouthpiece in one exchange. Likely knowing he needed to finish strong to get the judges on his side, Ferguson rushed in with a final torrent of hooks in the final seconds. He earned a 2-1 decision win for his tenacity.
Welterweights Kieron Molloy (Ireland) and Freudis Rojas, Jr. (USA) squared off in another bout. Both fighters are previous World Championship Bronze Medalists with Molloy also claiming nine Irish National titles and Rojas winning the US nationals 10 times so far. It was another close shave win for Team Ireland.
Rojas was clearly the more active fighter in the first round. He used a consistent jab and increased his work rate through the frame. He ket busy on offense right up until the bell. Molloy began the round winging shots and trying to figure out his range. He unleashed a bit late in some of the more fierce exchanges, couldn’t figure out how to get his combinations going, and had a tough time catching up with the faster Rojas. Molloy did land some excellent straight lefts, walaupun.
The next round went much better for the Irish southpaw. He started with an uptick in his punch output, though he still struggled to land combos. At one point in the round, Molloy connected with a huge straight left, followed up by a nice power jab, slowing down his opponent. Rojas kept coming forward but couldn’t capitalize on scoring opportunities in the round. A late flurry of punches from Rojas wasn’t enough for him to steal the round.
Rojas landed some excellent shots in the final round, going downstairs to the body frequently. He also caught Molloy against the ropes, blasting him with straight punches. Molloy fought the smarter round, walaupun, picking the best times to throw and often catching Rojas with his hands down. His best exchange of the round featured a huge 1-2 connecting to the head and a wild left hook to the head. A final swarm of punches from the Irish fighter closed the show and earned him a 2-1 split decision win.
Team USA’s Nikita Ababiy scored a hard-fought win in a wild affair before the main event with Team Ireland’s Gerard French. The first round saw Ababiy jabbing well. The American came into the fight with a very non-traditional boxing stance with one hand low, but his posture seemed to be effective in luring his opponent into punching range. Ababiy landed some booming hooks and a nice left uppercut that backed up French. Sementara itu, French concentrated on trying to land counters. He had a lower work rate but also didn’t take too much punishment.
French spent the second round trying to exchange in close quarters. He landed more shots later in the round, including some heated right hooks in the final moments. Ababiy connected with some thumping shots in the round and showcased some nice defense as well. He mixed up his shots to the body and head, throwing and covering up to wait for the next opening. Ababiy landed a nice left hook to the head followed up with a picture perfect right uppercut in the final minute. He ended the round well on his way to his first win.
The final round saw Ababiy slow down a bit, but he was still effective enough to carry the frame. French managed some crisp left hooks to the head, but he couldn’t figure out the different style his opponent brought to the ring. The American cruised to the unanimous decision win.
The night also began with the only stoppage on the card thanks to a wild brawl between local 132-pound Manchester, NH novices Michael Correa and Abhisek Thapa. Correa took off across the ring upon hearing the opening bell and unleashed one wild flurry after another. Thapa didn’t let the tornado swallow him up, walaupun. He ust covered up and waited for his opportunities. It only took a couple minutes for Correa to start tiring out from the relentless attack. Thapa then waded in to land some of the most impressive shots of the night, forcing the referee to stop the fight for three standing eight counts before the end finally came with a whirlwind of power punches from Thapa.

 

There was also a guest appearance made by the boxer Floyd Mayweather, Jr. still calls his toughest opponent ever, Emanuel Augustus (3-34-6, 20 KOs). Augustus participated in a reunion the previous night with “Ireland” Micky Ward (38-13, 27 KOs), celebrating one of the best fights in the history of the sport, which took place on July 13, 2001. Augustus stuck around for the fights and even came into the ring to showcase that he still has the same punching prowess that made him one of the most entertaining fighters of his era.
“We learned from this tour that we’re right up there with the best teams in the world,” Team USA head coach Billy Walsh said. “Team Ireland is a very good, young team. We’re going to have a good team to send to Tokyo (2020 Sukan Olimpik). I’m proud of my team. They all worked very hard. We didn’t have some of our best boxers because some were competing in an International tournament We do have a good crop of 18-19-20 year-olds who will make up our 2020 Olympic team.”

Team Ireland also brought their own production crew to film all the action for those who couldn’t be there:

USA vs. Jelajah Tinju Timur Laut Ireland Permulaan Mac 12 di Boston

“saya lawan’ Ireland” sejarah tinju
Kaya di Boston
COLORADO SPRINGS, Lap. (Februari 12, 2018) – “saya lawan’ Ireland” dan tinju Boston telah sinonim selama lebih daripada satu abad, sejak orang Ireland mula berhijrah ke Amerika Syarikat secara amnya, Boston khususnya, selepas Kebuluran Kentang Besar.
Ramai peninju Ireland dan Ireland-Amerika telah bertempur di kawasan Greater Boston, ada yang dilahirkan dan ada yang menetap di sana. Tradisi kaya ini diteruskan bulan depan dengan cara yang berbeza apabila tiga bandar 2018 USA vs. Jelajah Tinju Timur Laut Ireland bermula Isnin, Mac 12, di Kompleks Hiburan Royale yang baru diubah suai di daerah teater terkenal di Boston. Perhentian Boston, yang sedang dibentangkan oleh Budweiser, akan mempunyai tiket kemasukan am untuk $20.00 dan jumlah terhad $30.00 tiket yang ditempah mula dijual hari ini (Isnin, Februari. 12) di 12 petang. DAN tersedia untuk dibeli dalam talian di sini.
Amerika Syarikat lwn. Jelajah Tinju Timur Laut Ireland akan diteruskan Mac 15 di Pusat MassMutual di Springfield, Mass., membuat kesimpulan Mac 21 di Hotel Manchester Downtown di New Hampshire.
Semua dwi akan bermula pada 7:00 petang. EST dan tiket akan mula dijual pada minggu-minggu akan datang. Setiap bandar akan mempamerkan sehingga 12 hujung, yang semuanya akan disiarkan secara langsung, percuma, di laman web Amerika Syarikat Boxing ini (www.usaboxing.org).
Tradisi itu bermula pada zaman dahulu 19ke- abad dengan “The Boston Strongboy,” John. L. Sullivan (Roxbury, MA), jutawan pertama atlet Amerika, serta yang pertama “sarung tangan” juara heavyweight dunia dan final “buku jari kosong” juara heavyweight dunia. Dewan Kemasyhuran Tinju Antarabangsa, Sullivan menang 38 daripada 38 pergaduhan pro, 30 datang secara kalah mati, dengan hanya satu kekalahan dan dua seri.
Satu lagi Hall-of-Famer dari era itu, Jake Kilrain (29-5-8, 17 KOs), tinggal di Somerville dan Quincy, kedua-dua pinggir bandar Boston. Kilrain (1829-1899) juga memerintah sebagai juara heavyweight dunia.
Peninju Ireland dari Greater Boston meneruskan tradisi yang kaya ini hingga akhir 19ke- dan permulaan 20ke- berabad-abad dengan juara dunia dan pesaing utama seperti welterweight Paddy Duffy (31-3,16, 18 KOs), Lawrence kelas welter Mike Glover(Cavanaugh – 30-5-5, 16 KOs), dan kelas welter Charlestown Mike “kembar” Sullivan(28-6-16, 17 KOs), dan kelas bantam Newton Jimmy Walsh (33-10-20, 14 KOs)
Pada tahun 1950-an, Woburn ringan “Ireland” Tommy Collins (61-12, 44 KOs) telah digugurkan 10 kali di Boston Garden oleh juara dunia Jimmy Carter, sehingga dia akhirnya tewas pada pusingan keempat. Persembahan beraninya, Walau bagaimanapun, memperolehnya penampilan di Ed Sullivan Show yang popular.
Arlington kelas berat Tom McNeeley (37-14, 28 KOs), tidak berjaya memperjuangkan gelaran dunia di 1961, berhenti pada pusingan keempat pertarungan Toronto menentang juara bertahan Floyd Patterson, dan anak lelaki McNeeley, Penduduk asli Boston dan kemudiannya bermastautin Medfield Peter “Hurricane” McNeeley (47-7, 30 KOs) terkenal telah dihentikan dalam pusingan pembukaan oleh “Besi” Mike Tyson dalam pergaduhan pertama yang terakhir selepas dibebaskan dari penjara.
Pada tahun 1980-an, Peninju Ireland pergi ke Boston untuk bertarung; ada yang pulang ke rumah selepas kerjaya mereka, yang lain ditempatkan semula di kawasan tersebut. Dalam 1984, asli Ireland Sean Mannion (42-14, 13 KOs), yang telah berpindah ke bahagian Dorchester di Boston, kalah keputusan 15 pusingan di Madison Square Garden kepada Mike McCallum untuk Persatuan Tinju Dunia (WBA) Kejohanan Dunia Super Middleweight.
Steve “Pahlawan Celtic” Collins (25-2-1, 18 KOs) berpindah ke Everett, kemudian ke Brockton, untuk bekerja dengan Goody dan Pat Petronelli, yang mengendalikan Marvelous Marvin Hagler sepanjang kerjaya Hall of Fame. Collins menawan Pertubuhan Tinju Dunia (WBO) gelaran dunia kelas menengah dan kelas menengah super sebelum kembali ke Ireland.
Collins’ adik lelaki, Packie Collins, juga berpindah ke Brockton untuk bertempur. Dia kemudiannya bekerja dengan juara heavyweight Ireland Kevin “The Clones Colossus” McBride (35-10-1, 29 KOs), yang seterusnya menjatuhkan Tyson dan bersara. McBride, yang masih tinggal di Dorchester, ialah rakan stabil bekas ketua jurulatih Pasukan Ireland dan ketua jurulatih Pasukan USA semasa, Billy Walsh, di Sukan Eropah. Kedua-duanya juga merupakan ahli Olimpik Ireland, masing-masing, dalam 1988 dan 1992.
Seorang lagi atlet Olimpik Ireland, Wayne “Roket Poket” McCullough (27-7, 18 KOs), berpindah ke Las Vegas dari Ireland Utara. Nasib orang Ireland tidak bersamanya di Boston 1997, apabila dia kehilangan Majlis Tinju Dunianya (WBC) gelaran bantamweight di Pusat Konvensyen Hynes, dengan cara keputusan split 12 pusingan kepada Daniel Zaragoza.
Boleh dikatakan petinju Ireland-Amerika yang paling terkenal dan popular, di luar Sullivan dan Jack Dempsey, ialah Lowell junior welterweight “Ireland” Micky Ward (38-13, 27 KOs), yang terlibat dalam tiga pemenang anugerah Fight of the Year, dua daripada trilogi epiknya dengan Arturo Gatti, dan peninju pertama dengan lebih daripada 10 kehilangan kerjaya untuk mendapatkan wang tunai $1 juta. Kehidupan Ward digambarkan oleh ikon Boston yang lain, pelakon Mark Wahlberg, dalam filem yang memenangi anugerah, “Sang Pejuang.”
Peninju Ireland masih datang ke Boston untuk bertarung. Murphys Boxing yang berpangkalan di tempatan telah mempromosikan banyak pertunjukan di Boston yang menampilkan petinju bertaraf dunia seperti Gary “Spike” O'Sullivan dan kelas bantam super yang tidak terkalahkan TJ “Kuasa” Doheny (18-0, 13 KOs), serta bintang yang sedang meningkat naik yang tidak terkalahkan seperti “Menyengat” Ray Mayotte dan New England & Juara kelas berat Massachusetts Niall Kennedy (10-0, 6 KOs).
Pasukan Ireland akan mengumumkan peninjunya lewat bulan ini selepas tamat Kejohanan Kebangsaannya.
Jadual Tajuk Pasukan USA ialah 2017 pemenang pingat gangsa Kejohanan Dunia Troy Isley(Alexandria, VA). Pasukan USA Boxing juga akan termasuk Virginia Fuchs (Kem, Texas), yang memenangi empat pingat emas antarabangsa dalam 2017, 2016 Youth World Champion dan 2017 Kejohanan Continental Elite pemenang pingat perak, Delante Johnson (Cleveland, OH), 2017 Juara Kebangsaan Tinju Heavyweight Amerika Syarikat Jared Anderson (Toledo, OH) dan 2016 pemenang pingat gangsa Youth World Championship dan 2017 Amerika Syarikat Boxing Super Champion Negara Heavyweight, Richard Torrez (Tulare, SEPERTI).
