דריקט דאָ צו אָפּלאָדירן פאָטאָס; קרעדיט ראָוזי קאָהע / שאָוטיים
מאַשאַנטאַקאַט, קאַן. (יולי 23, 2016) – With a potential title shot on the line, Adam Lopez and Roman Reynoso fought to a 10-round draw in the main event of the 15-year anniversary telecast of שאָבאָקס: די ניו גענעראַטיאָן פרייַטיק אויף שאָוטיים® from Foxwoods Resort Casino.
In attendance ringside before the fight, newly crowned IBF Junior Featherweight World Champion Jonathan Guzman (22-0, 22 קאָס) announced that he’d like fight the winner of Lopez-Reynoso, raising the stakes for this matchup of 122-pound prospects. While the fight was close and entertaining, analyst Steve Farhood, who has called all 219שאָבאָקס telecasts, didn’t believe either fighter did enough to earn an immediate title shot against Guzman.
The fight looked like a toss-up heading into the 10טה – with Lopez leading by just one connect after nine rounds – and the Ronnie Shields pupil came up with a huge final round rally. The undefeated prospect hurt Reynoso (18-1-2, 7 קאָס) in the final seconds with a flurry of shots, forcing the Argentine spit out his mouthpiece to buy himself nearly 30 seconds of rest. Seemingly out on his feet, Reynoso somehow survived the onslaught without falling to the canvas before the final bell. לאָפּעז (15-0-1, 7 קאָס) out-landed Reynoso 34-21 overall and 34-20 in power shots in the final round, but it wasn’t enough to earn him the victory.
Judge Don Ackerman saw Lopez a 96-94 געווינער, while Bill Morande had it 97-93 Reynoso, and Peter Hary cast the deciding ballot at 95-95. All three judges scored the last round 10-9 for Lopez. Had Reynoso fell to the canvas in the final seconds, די 10-8 round would have given Lopez the win.
"עס איז געווען אַ האַרט קאַמף. He didn’t want to engage,"האט לאָפּעז, who out-landed Reynoso 158-144 overall and 131-125 in power shots. “He’s slick and experienced and a good fighter. I feel that this was my best performance on שאָבאָקס. I have been working on new things with Ronnie Shields and it showed in there. I know I hurt him in the last round.
“The decision was bullshit. He could not hit me.”
“It was a close fight, but I feel I won,” Reynoso said. “He never hurt me. The only thing that surprised me is that he was more aggressive than in other fights. I hurt my hand from hitting him.”
Late replacement Jerry Odom knocked out previously once-beaten Julius Jackson with a vicious third round knockout (1:57) אין די שאָבאָקסגלויבנס-שטריך.
זשעקסאן (19-2, 15 קאָס), the son of former two-division world champion Julian “The Hawk” Jackson, was outworking Odom through two rounds, who took the fight 10-days notice after Ronaldo Ellis suffered a hand injury. That was until Washington, D.C.’s Odom (14-2-1, 13 קאָס) clocked Jackson with a flush right counter shot with one minute left in the third, spelling the end for Jackson, who couldn’t beat the count and suffered his second consecutive knockout loss.
“I saw the right hand. I was throwing combinations and I saw the opening and landed a good shot,"אָדאָם האט. “As opposed to the last couple fights, I am in a great place physically, מענטאַלי און ספּיריטשאַוואַלי. I have a great team around me. We are unbreakable.”
“He threw the punch at the right time and caught me,” Jackson said. “I was OK, but the referee stopped the fight. I felt up until that point, I was boxing well and winning every round.”
Rolando Chinea won a close, eight-round split decision victory over O’Shaquie Foster (10-2, 7 קאָס) in a matchup of lightweights, סקאָרד 79-73 (Chinea), 77-75 (פאָסטער) און 78-74 (Chinea).
Chinea (13-1-1, 6 קאָס) was the aggressor, dictating the tempo of the fight from the outset. And while most rounds were extremely close – closer than the relatively wide scorecards – Chinea’s activity was the difference. Chinea threw 733 גאַנץ פּאַנטשיז, compared to 641 for Foster, and he edged Foster by nearly 150 מאַכט פּאַנטשיז (592-449).
“He is a hell of a fighter and it was fun to fight him,” said Chinea, who was largely able to minimize the jab, Foster’s best weapon. “Like I said before the fight, he could not take pressure. I brought the pressure. I blocked and slipped a lot of his punches. My will and desire to win outweighed his will to punch.
“He did not take my pressure well. I worked my shots well inside and that was a difference in the fight.”
פאָסטער, who’s record fell to 10-2 מיט 7 קאָס, complained that he “had distractions and couldn’t focus.”
אין דער עפענונג באַוט פון די טעלאַקאַסט, Ian Green handed previously undefeated super welterweight prospect Khiary Gray the first loss of his career with a stunning second round TKO (2:50).
With former world champion and fellow Paterson, נ.דזש., Kendall Holt in his corner, גרין (10-1, 8 קאָס) came from behind to floor Gray with a big right cross to the chin that sent him tumbling face-forward into the canvas. Gray, a local favorite from nearby Worchester, מאַסע., tried to hold on with just 30 סעקונדעס לינקס אויף די קייַלעכיק, but he couldn’t make it to the break and was falling backward into the ropes when the referee halted the contest.
“I got him good, and I got him out of there,” said Green, who out-landed Gray 14-0 in the final minute. “He got me good one time, but I kept my left hand up and hung in there. We’re going all the way up. This is just the start.”
Gray (13-1, 10 קאָס), who was seemingly in control of the fight and rocking Green with ease, געווארן די 151סט fighter to suffer his initial defeat on the prospect developmental series.
“ער האָט מיך נאָר געכאַפּט,” Gray said. “I don’t even know what punch it was. I didn’t even see it. I tried to hold on and waste some time, but I got caught again. I just need to get back to the gym and fix my mistakes. I’ll bounce back.”

Odom was deep in training and looking to bounce back from a controversial draw with Ellis in February on שאָבאָקס when he received the opportunity to face Jackson (19-1, 15 קאָס). Jackson is the older brother of John and son of former two-division world champion Julian “The Hawk” Jackson.
“I have been training for a few fights that fell through. I’m in shape and ready to go,"אָדאָם האט. “When my team got the call we decided it was the right decision to take this opportunity.
“My power will be a big factor. Jackson has faced punchers before, but he hasn’t faced one like me. דאס איז אַ גרויס געלעגנהייט, and I will put on a show ווייַטער פרייטיק.”

לאָפּעז, Ellis and Foster fought on GH3’s פעברואר. 19 שאָבאָקס at Atlantic City. Lopez and Foster triumphed; Ellis boxed a draw.
Adam Lopez vs. Roman Ruben Reynoso: 10-round bantamweight bout
The steadily improving Lopez, now trained by Houston-based ראַני שיעלדס, will be making his fourth שאָבאָקס start since March 2015. In his first three, he defeated previously unbeaten prospects (combined record: 44-0-2) on each occasion.
לעצט פעברואר. 19, the 5-foot-7, 25-year-old Lopez captured a career-best, highly competitive 10-round decision over Mario Muñoz (16-0-1) of Mexico. Lopez survived a nasty cut over his right eye to win by the scores of 98-92 צוויי מאָל און 97-93. In his other fights on שאָבאָקס, Lopez won a (then personal-best) 10-round majority decision over Dominicanעליעסער אַקינאָו (17-0-1) אויף יולי 17, 2015, and by second-round knockout over פּאַבלאָ קרוז (11-0) אויף מאַרץ 13, 2015.
Regarding his upcoming fight against Reynoso, Lopez said, “Everything is good. I’m starting to turn up my sparring. I have switched trainers to ראַני שיעלדס אין האָוסטאָן. I see a lot of improvement since my last fight.
“Reynoso is a good fighter from Argentina. He is in Canada now, so I am sure he is getting good sparring there. He is kind of wild, but guys like that are hard to fight because you don’t know where the punches are coming from, but we will be prepared for anything.”
Born in Phoenix and raised in Los Angeles, Lopez moved to San Antonio at 15. ער איז געקומען 125-23 in the amateurs and won six national championships before turning pro at 21 אין פעברואר 2012.
The 25-year-old Reynoso brings a 10-fight winning streak into his United States and שאָבאָקס דעבוט. A five-year pro, the South American lightweight champion fought his initial 18 fights in Buenos Aires before winning his last fight and lone start this year on a decision over Cristian Arrazola לעצט מייַ 20 אין קאַנאַדע. Reynoso’s lone defeat came in his fourth fight.
“Everything is going well in training camp,’’ Reynoso said. “We know that Lopez is tall for 122 pounds and he has good hand speed. He has a good name and we will try to learn more in the next few weeks.
“This is a big opportunity for us and we will do our best. This is a big fight and we know we have to win. With a win, we would hope to get a world title opportunity.’’
Ronald Ellis vs. יוליוס זשעקסאן: Eight-round middleweight bout
Ellis gets an immediate opportunity to regain his winning ways after taking a sizeable jump up in class and boxing an eight-round draw with hard-hitting דזשערי אָודאַם אין זיין פעברואר. 19 שאָבאָקס דעבוט. A spirited, close contest throughout was scored 78-74 for Ellis and 76-76 אַפּיס. The draw snapped a four-fight-knockout streak for Ellis, who’s won all 10 of his knockouts inside two rounds (eight in the first) since turning pro in 2011.
“This is going to be another coming out party for me,’’ the 5-foot-11, 25-year-old Ellis said. “The last fight was a draw. I had some problems with my hand, but I’m back and this is a step for me. Hopefully he comes to fight. I hope he brings it 100 percent because I am bringing 200 פּראָצענט.
“I am glad to be on שאָבאָקס ווידער. I showed the fans a little bit in my last fight. They can expect the same thing but a little bit more on יולי 22.''
Jackson is making his second שאָבאָקס אָנהייב. In his debut – and initial go in the U.S. – the older brother of יוחנן and son of former two-division world champion Julian “The Hawk” Jackson registered two knockdowns en-route to a ninth-round TKO over Jonathan Nelson (19-2, 10 קאָס) אויף דעצעמבער. 20, 2014.
Much like Ellis, Jackson is also getting a quick-fix chance to redeem himself and get back on the winning track. אָבער, unlike Ellis, זשעקסאן losthis most recent fight. His perfect record and 19-fight winning streak ended when he lost by second-round TKO to now top-rated super middleweight contender Jose Uzcategui לעצט אקטאבער. 6.
“I’m looking to redeem myself and come out with a win,’’ said the 6-foot-2 Jackson, וואס טורנס 29 אויף אויגוסט. 1. “This is my second שאָבאָקס fight and I’m excited to get back to let the world see my talent. I’m getting better, my training has been good. I expect to be in with another really good fighter. It should be a great fight.’’
א 2008 Olympian for the Virgin Islands and a pro since January 2009, Jackson is fighting for the third time in a row in the U.S.
O’Shaquie Foster vs. ראָלאַנדאָ טשינעאַ: Eight-round featherweight bout
O’Shaquie (pronounced “oh-SHACK-ee”) Foster is making his third appearance on שאָבאָקס. לעצט פעברואר. 19, he began to live up to expectations when he rebounded from a sub-standard performance in his שאָבאָקס דעבוט (an eight-round decision loss to שמואל סעאַה אין נאוועמבער 2015) to register a seventh-round TKO over previously undefeated Lavisas Williams (8-0-1).
פאָסטער, 22, dropped southpaw Williams four times – in the second, third, fourth and seventh rounds. Three of the knockdowns appeared to result from a push, but Williams’ gloves touched the canvas each time so they went into the books as knockdowns. After the final knockdown in the seventh, the fight was stopped at 52 סעקונדעס אין די קייַלעכיק.
“Everything is going good,’’ Foster said. “I’ve been doing a lot of conditioning. I am in the best shape of my life. Chinea has a good jab and I know he will be in a good shape.
“Ever since I moved to Virginia to train, my conditioning, mentality and confidence has gone way up and that was the difference from my first fight to my last fight on שאָבאָקס. אויף יולי 22, I will be even that much better.’’
A highly decorated amateur standout, the 5-foot-8½ inch Foster advanced to the 2012 יוז. Olympic Trials where he lost to unbeaten pro prospect, יוסף "דזשאָו-דזשאָו" דיאַז. איידער אַז, Foster was a 2010 כאַווער לאַנדיש טשאַמפּיאָן, a five-time Ringside National Champion and two-time National Junior Golden Gloves Champion.
Chinea, a 5-foot-8, 25-יאָר-אַלט, איז געמאכט זיין שאָבאָקס דעבוט. After going pro in November 2011, ער איז 10-0-1 before losing an eight-round decision to Ismail Muwendo אין אפריל 2015. He’s won two straight since, including a six-round decision over previously undefeatedלאַדאַריוס מיללער (דעמאָלט 9-0) אין זיין לעצט קאַמף אויף פעברואר. 16.
“I treat every opponent the same,’’ Chinea. “I give everything I got and I leave it all in the ring. I know Foster was a good amateur. I know he can box and I know he has some pop.
“This is the moment I’ve dreamed about since I started boxing at 14. My main goal is to tune out the crowd and win. I want to be a main event fighter on SHOWTIME and this is the first step.’’
Khiary Gray-Pitts vs. Ismael Garcia: Eight-round super welterweight bout
גרוי-פּיץ, 23, will be boxing on שאָבאָקס פֿאַר די ערשטער מאָל. Ambidextrous with quick hands and feet, Gray-Pitts turned pro in June 2014. He fought three times that year, eight times in 2015 (8-0, 8 קאָס, seven in the first, one in the second) and this will be his third fight in 2016.
“I’m very excited,’’ Gray-Pitts said. “Now I get to showcase my skillset to the whole world. It’s something I’ve been waiting for. There’s still more that people haven’t seen yet when it comes to me. Now I get to see what I have the ability to do. I’m able to block [the crowd] out.
“The more pressure there is, the more relaxed I am. I don’t know a lot about my opponent, but it doesn’t matter as long as I go in there and get done what I need to get done.”
The 5-foot-9 Gray-Pitts is coming off a second-round knockout overQuinton Willis לעצט מייַ 13. In his outing before last, the previous פעברואר. 19, won a 10-round decision over Eduardo פלאָרעס.
גאַרסיאַ, 29, has fought sporadically since turning pro in March 2010, although he’s been more active in the last 14 חדשים. He fought in May and October in 2015 and won his one start this year on a six-round split decision over קאַרלאָס גאַרסיאַ לעצט מאַרץ 18. Garcia’s initial seven fights took place in Atlantic City, the last three in Philadelphia.
“It is my television debut, and everything we have been working on in my first 10 fights we will put together for this fight,’’ Garcia said. “This is SHOWTIME. Being on שאָבאָקס is a long time coming for me. It’s what I’ve dreamed about since I started boxing. It’s his TV debut as well so I know he will be on top of his game. We will be preparing 100 percent for that and then some.
“I have seen a little of Gray-Pitts on tape. This will be my toughest test, as I will be his toughest test. When you have 13-0 מלחמה 10-0, it will be a good fight.’’
