Aqui está o que os participantes da coletiva de imprensa virtual disseram na quarta-feira:

ROY JONES JR.

“Eu queria lutar contra o Anderson Silva na época, mas continuou sendo empurrado para o lado. Quando eles me contaram sobre a luta de Pettis, foi intrigante. Ele fez coisas no MMA que ninguém nunca fez. Para enfrentar outra pessoa com o mesmo tipo de mente criativa, eu não poderia dizer não a isso.

“Ele é diferente e muito criativo com seu estilo. Ele sabe o que está fazendo. Ele está lutando com caras como o ex-campeão mundial Caleb Plant. Esse é o tipo certo de sparring. Ele não está jogando boxe, ele está falando sério sobre isso.

“Eu sinto que fui a primeira pessoa a criar o crossover boxe vs.. Ideia de luta de MMA, mas eu nunca consegui fazer isso. Esta foi a oportunidade perfeita. Eu sei que ele vai se esforçar com seu boxe, porque ele está enfrentando um dos grandes. Se eu estivesse jogando contra Michael Jordan, eu colocaria tudo nele.  

“Meu jogo é ajudar a fazer um cartão incrível para as pessoas. Meu objetivo no boxe sempre foi dar às pessoas o que elas querem ver.

“Adoro o fato de poder lutar em um lugar onde nunca estive. Eles têm a aberração grega [Giannis Antetokounmpo] há, e nós dois somos malucos no ringue, então porque não fazer acontecer? Quando você tiver a oportunidade, você tem que atirar, e é isso que fazemos.

"Eu sou mais velho, mas ainda sou sábio. Que melhor maneira de ele aprender boxe do que contra alguém que sabe basicamente tudo sobre o esporte??"

ANTHONY PETTIS

“É uma loucura estar nessa posição e lutar contra o Roy Jones Jr.. na minha primeira luta de boxe. Este é um desafio que eu estava esperando. Você não pode dizer não a uma oportunidade como esta. Esse é o tipo de desafio que me acorda todas as manhãs e me dá vontade de trazê-lo.

“Eu estou apenas lutando boxe agora. Estou encontrando os melhores boxeadores com quem posso lutar aqui em Las Vegas. eu estou vivendo o estilo de vida. Como você pode não estar motivado ao enfrentar um cara como Roy? Venho para vencer lutas e esse é o objetivo abril 1.

“Já fiz tanto no MMA, mas cresci assistindo lutas como Oscar De La Hoya vs. Felix Trinidad. Assistindo é por isso que entrei nos esportes de combate. Agora que tenho esta oportunidade, Estou contratando os caras certos e fazendo tudo o que preciso para levar isso 100% seriamente.

“Tenho trabalhado muito para me ajustar a lutar em um peso maior. Eu já estava em forma de luta vindo para o acampamento, porque esta é uma ótima oportunidade. Eu sinto que estou me acostumando com a pressão que ele vai trazer. Vou usar a inteligência e as habilidades que acumulei ao longo dos anos e tentar colocar isso nele.

“Se você olhar para minha carreira no UFC, Eu lutei contra o melhor dos melhores. Isso é exatamente o que estou trazendo para minha carreira no boxe. Esse é o tipo de desafio que eu quero.

“Estou me testando contra um dos grandes. Então isso seria enorme para o MMA como esporte. Eu não vou deixar isso escapar por entre meus dedos. Acho que você vai se surpreender com meu conjunto de habilidades.

JORGE MASVIDAL, CEO da Gamebred Boxing

“Estou tão empolgado. Não acredito que estou olhando para Roy e Pettis e tudo está ganhando vida. Lembro que Dean e eu estávamos conversando sobre isso acontecer meses atrás, e agora está acontecendo.

“Acompanho Roy desde criança, e sendo um cara da Flórida, nós realmente nos esforçamos para ele. Estamos muito felizes em poder juntar isso. Pettis é um dos maiores 155 libras que eu já vi. Esses estilos são uma ótima malha, porque ambos sabem ser chamativos.

“Eu não posso acreditar que este voo está prestes a acontecer. Adereços a todos por intensificar, especialmente os lutadores, porque se não fosse por eles não estaria acontecendo.

“Eu sei que Pettis tem focado na trocação por um tempo agora., e mal posso esperar para ver como um dos meus irmãos de MMA se sai contra um dos maiores boxeadores de todos os tempos.

“Nós só queremos colocar as melhores cartas possíveis e é assim que parece. Depois de uma longa semana de trabalho, vou desembolsar o dinheiro para este cartão? Quando eu olho para este cartão, Eu definitivamente pagaria por isso. Isso é história para qualquer entusiasta de esportes de combate.”

DEAN TOOLE, Presidente da Gamebred Boxe

“Este é apenas o segundo evento que o UFC Fight Pass promove através de um pay-per-view digital., com o outro sendo Mayweather vs. McGregor. Isso diz muito sobre o tamanho deste evento.

“Esta carta de luta está absolutamente empilhada. Temos campeões mundiais do UFC e do Strikeforce, Veteranos do UFC e um dos maiores boxeadores de todos os tempos, só para citar alguns. Temos uma escalação incrível e mal posso esperar para ouvir esses incríveis lutadores hoje..

“Também vamos ter perspectivas reais de boxe e novatos neste card.. Esses tipos de lutas colocarão os olhos nos próximos boxeadores que eventualmente serão a atração principal desses cards.

Potential Instant Classics in World Cup Boxing Series “4-Man Lightweight Tournament” semifinals

Deixe um comentário
POSTER.jpg
LAS VEGAS (Janeiro 27, 2022) — The semifinals of the World Cup Boxing Series’ (WCBS) inaugural “4-Man Lightweight Tournament,” presented by Roy Jones Jr. (RJJ) Boxing Promotions, has the potential to have two instant classics on February 24th.

All the Roy Jones Jr. (RJJ) Boxing-promoted action will be streamed on UFC FIGHT PASS®, serviço de subscrição do mundo líder digital para esportes de combate, live and exclusively from Palenque De La Expo in Ciudad Obregon, Sonora, México. To sign-up for UFC FIGHT PASS, visite www.ufcfightpass.com.

O Conselho Mundial de Boxe (WBC) has sanctioned the WCBS’ “4-Man lightweight Tournament,” created by CEO Terry Hollan and matchmaker Guy Taylor, and the winner will be crowned the WBC Latino Lightweight Champion, as well as positioned in the WBC’s top 15 classificações.


The WCBS “4-Man Tournament” semifinals matchups are Luis “Koreano” Torres (14-0, 9 KOs) vs. Rodolfo “Rudy” Flores (14-5, 6 KOs), Isai “Gaga” Hernandez (11-2-2, 7 KOs) vs. Irving “Poderoso” Castillo (11-2, 7 KOs).


Semifinal’s action will be contested in 8-round bouts, 10 rounds for the championship final. The WCBS will also feature one “overtime” round, se necessário, to declare a winner in the event of a draw upon the conclusion of the scheduled distance.


WCBS will also be offering a “Fight of the Night” and “Knockout” bonuses to each contestant through the duration of its “4-Man Lightweight Tournament.”


The 20-year-old Torres, a former WBC Youth Silver lightweight champion, is the No. 1 seed and pre-tournament favorite who will be fighting at home.


“I am very happy about this opportunity,” Torres said. “Thank you to the WCBS, WBC, RJJ Boxing and UFC FIGHT PASS for making this possible. Ele é (Flores) a tough, good boxer who likes to fight at a distance if he can. Nothing I haven’t seen before.


“My style is to attack at all times. I love to go for the knockout and give fans what they want to see. My fights will always go my way. Attacking from the very beginning, I hope he stands and throws with me as he says. Either way I’m coming after him. I predict pain for him and a knockout win for me before round 5.”


The 26-year-old Flores has impressive victories against Jesus Acosta Zazueta (16-5-2) and Jairo Lopez (18-5).


“It’s very important for me to be fighting in this tournament,” Flores noted. “I want to thank the WCBS and WBC for the opportunity to be part of their tournament. I know my opponent is a southpaw, but I really don’t care to know much about him. He has very good skills but that doesn’t bother me at all.


“I like to box on the outside, keep my distance, and control the pace. I think this fight is going to be a war! I am very excited for this match-up and I hope Torres is ready for a fight. I will win this fight by decision.”

Undefeated lightweight prospect Jamaine “The Technician” Ortiz No longer best kept secret after Tyson-Jones, Jr. PPV show performance

Deixe um comentário

WORCESTER, Massa. (Dezembro 14, 2020) – Prior to his sensational performance on the recent Mike Tyson-Roy Jones, Jr. pay-per-view evento, undefeated lightweight prospectJamaine “O Técnico” Ortiz was boxing’s best kept secret. No more, embora, as Ortiz firmly established himself as a rising star in front of countless fans among the 1.6 million PPV buys.

Ortiz flew from Boston to Los Angeles on Thanksgiving. He was driven to his hotel, where he immediately saw Jones, checked his weight, and walked to Staples Center. “I was comfortable from the start,” said the young fighter who was fighting for the first time as a professional outside of New England. “I was there to get the job done. I was on a mission. I walk to see the Staples Center and that was cool. I later took my run around the Staples Center and there were a lot of statues. It was beautiful. It was cool seeing the Lakers locker-room.”

The 24-year-old Ortiz (14-0, 8 KOs), the reigning World Boxing Youth World champion, nocauteadoSulaiman Segawa (13-3-1, 4 KOs) with a bruising body attack, hurting his opponent in the sixth round, and closing the show in spectacular fashion in the seventh for the vacant World Boxing Council (WBC) USNBC (U.S) Silver lightweight title. Segawa had never been stopped before as a professional.

Ortiz displayed his overall arsenal: stiff jab, lightning quick hands and feet, switching back and forth effortlessly from orthodox to southpaw stances, punishing hooks up and down, and the most lethal body shots seen from a New Englander since“Irish” Micky Ward.   

“I was calm and cool before the fight,” Ortiz added. “I like to go into a fight, mentalmente, like it was a sparring session and I always do good. I started out in an orthodox stance, established my jab and used it a lot. I think I should have used it more and could have beaten him with it. I listened to my coach (Rocky Gonzalez) and he told me when to switch. Body punching is the No. 1 thing with Rocky. I may not have shown it nearly as much in other fights, but he drills that into me all the time. In the sixth round, he told me to go more to the body, not looking to catch him, and in the seventh I really hurt him to the body.

“Segawa was definitely tough. He had beaten a lot of guys, including a few he upset. Every fight is a stepping-stone and I’m my worst critic. I felt that I could have knocked him out in the second round, but I didn’t want to go off the game plan

Ortiz set-up Segawa from the opening bell, quebrou-o para baixo, and finished the show in grand style as Seqawa was hurt and trapped on the ropes, drawing kudos from highly respected people in the industry such as“Sugar” Ray Leonard, Teddy Atlas, and others. Ortiz’ fanbase grew exponentially as boxing fans rushed to sign up to follow Jamaine during and after his breakout fight.

“Once people saw me perform and my style,” Ortiz continued, “they liked me. I could have shown more and thrown more combinations. I really needed to fight in front of the world. I got 5,500 new Instagram flowers that night. I guess, I’m no longer the best kept secret in boxing.”

“Our main goal is to win a world title,” Gonzalez commented. “This was fun and a great opportunity, but the motivation to be world champion is stronger. He dealt with this fight as just another fight, and he followed our game plan.

“His body shots set up the ending. I’m always telling him about Micky Ward’s body shots. You know, boxing is a dance, a salsa. Boxers need to dance; I don’t think they should just be orthodox. They all need to fight the other way and when Jamaine switched stances in the third, he never let up. I’ve trained him hard. I’m always on him and what better way to shut me up than ending it like he did on pay per view?  It was a drop the microphone moment!"

Ortiz is promoted byJimmy Burchfield (Classic Entertainment and Sports) and advised byRichard Shappy eEddie Imondi. 

Because of the uncertainty in boxing due to the pandemic, Ortiz’ 2021 schedule is unknown, but he isn’t boxing’s best kept secret anymore, “The Technician” is a bonafide rising star.

Undefeated lightweight prospect JAMAINE “THE TECHNICIAN” ORTIZ Hopes to Steal Tyson-Jones Junior Show

Deixe um comentário

WORCESTER, Massa. (Novembro 17, 2020) – Undefeated lightweight prospectJamaine “O Técnico” Ortiz (13-0, 7 KOs), the reigning World Boxing Youth World champion, hopes to steal the show on the November 28th Mike Tyson-Roy Jones, Jr. pay-per-view card, presented by Tyson’s Legends Only League, at Staples Center in Los Angeles.

The 24-year-old Ortiz, fighting out of Worcester, Massachusetts, will fight on the undercard against Maryland southpawSulaiman Segawa (13-2-1, 4 KOs) in an 8-round bout for the vacant World Boxing Council (WBC) USNBC (U.S) lightweight title.

“I feel good and I’m ready,” Ortiz said. “I’m privileged for this opportunity to fight on the Tyson-Jones card and get good exposure. I hope to steal the show. As a kid, I followed them both, especially Jones. I tried to imitate him”

Like all fighters, the COVID-19 pandemic has dramatically affected his career, although he has managed to train, albeit in various gyms and mostly by himself.

“It wasn’t too bad,” added Ortiz, who is an apprentice carpenter. “Not all of the facilities I use to train were open. Early on, I trained by myself, and did a lot of running. We were quarantined until late June, early July, but then I was able to get good sparring. So, No geral, it wasn’t too much of a change.”

Ortiz is promoted byJimmy Burchfield (Classic Entertainment and Sports) and advised byRichard Shappy eEddie Imondi. 

“We’re happy our fighter, Jamaine Ortiz, will be getting such great exposure and he will show the world what we already know here in New England,” Shappy commented. “Jamaine ‘The Technician’ Ortiz is a force that will have to be reckoned with.”

LAS VEGAS (Dezembro 13, 2018) – Roy Jones, Jr. (RJJ) Boxing proudly announces the signing of Dallas featherweight prospect Ray Ximenez, Jr. to a long-term, exclusive promotional contract.

Pilotando uma de cinco vitórias seguidas, the 25-year-old Ximenez (18-1, 4 KOs) is expected to make his RJJ Boxing debut in March. “We’re excited to sign another top prospect like Ray Ximenez to our growing stable of fighters,” RJJ Boxing CEO and co-founder Keith Veltre dito. “Ray is an old-school boxer, well-conditioned, hard-working, and we believe he has a very bright future.”

“I’m very excited and very appreciated for Roy Jones Jr. Boxing giving me this opportunity,” Ximenez commented. “I plan on showing everyone that I will be the next world champion from Dallas. Estou pronto, willing and able to fight anyone, em qualquer lugar, any place and any time.”

Ximenez was a standout amateur boxer, compiling a sterling 120-9 registro, highlighted by three gold-medal performances, both in the National P.A.L. Championships and Ringside World Championships.

He represented and captained Team USA at the 2009 Youth World Junior Olympics.

Em 2010, Ximenez made a successful pro debut, winning a four-round unanimous decision versus Cristoval Larrazolo..

Five years later, Ximenez defeated Jesse Angel Hernandez, currently 12-1 and world rated (IBF #14, WBO #15), by way of a six-round split decision in Fort Worth, Texas. Last February on beIN Sports, Ximenez registered an impressive eight-round unanimous decision in Dallas over EugeneLagos, who in his next fight on ESPN knocked off Golden Boy’s top prospect, invicto (15-0) Emilio Sanchez, na segunda rodada.

Ximenez won a 10-round unanimous decision over 111-fight veteran Alemão Meraz this past July in Ximenez’ last fight.

“I’m also excited and appreciative for this opportunity,” Ximenez’ manager Michael Montoya adicionado. “I’d like to especially thank CEO Keith Veltre and matchmaker Guy Taylor for believing in Ray Ximenez, Jr. and I am looking forward to a long-term relationship with one of the best boxing promoters in the sport of boxing.”
