LOS ANGELES (Dezembro 5, 2021) - Superstar do boxe e pentacampeão mundial Gervonta “Tank” Davis colocar suas habilidades de boxe em exibição, vencendo uma decisão unânime de 12 rodadas empolgantes sobre os implacáveis Isaac “Pitbull” Cruz para reter seu título mundial de peso leve WBA na frente de um craque de estrelas, multidão esgotada de 15,850 no STAPLES Center ao vivo no SHOWTIME Pay-Per-View, em um evento apresentado pela Premier Boxing Champions.

scorecards ler 116-112 e duas dezenas de 115-113, tudo por Davis.

A atmosfera na arena estava eletrizante, com dezenas de estrelas atuais e ex-estrelas da NBA presentes, incluindo Earvin “Magic” Johnson, Kawhi Leonard, Dwight Howard, Kenny Smith, Kevin Garnett e Paul Pierce entre outros.

Acompanhado pelo rapper superstar Lil Durk, Davis entrou no ringue em Laker roxo e dourado; borlas ao longo de seus troncos com o número do falecido Kobe Bryant "8" e "24" em cada lado. Cruz celebrou sua herança mexicana com uma banda mariachi atrás dele enquanto caminhava em direção ao ringue.

Não houve nenhum processo de sondagem no primeiro. Cruz atacou o atual campeão, prendendo-o contra as cordas e gemendo.

“Esse é o meu estilo. ‘Pitbull’ sempre estará no ataque,", Disse Cruz. “Acho que mantivemos o ritmo do início ao fim.”

Davis encontrou seu ritmo no segundo e terceiro, circulando o ringue e levando Cruz para os tiros. No quarto, Cruz concentrou seu ataque no corpo, batendo nas costelas de Davis.

O nativo de Baltimore, de 27 anos, ligou a energia no quarto, alternando entre o gancho de direita e cruz de esquerda atrás de sua postura canhoto. Mais golpes de punição vieram de Davis durante o quinto.

“Ele é um lutador mais baixo, então eu estava jogando no topo de sua cabeça,"Disse Davis. "Eu bati nele com meu dedo e baguncei tudo. Eu machuquei minha mão na sexta rodada. Não importa se o oponente é mais alto ou mais baixo, Eu tenho que passar por isso. Ele é um guerreiro. Mesmo que ele não tenha ganhado, uma estrela nasceu esta noite. ”

“Foi por volta da quinta rodada que vi que sua mão não estava funcionando corretamente,”Cruz observou.

Davis encaixotou lindamente nas rodadas intermediárias, disparando tiros rápidos e girando para longe do fogo de retorno. Um gancho de direita na oitava atingiu Cruz brevemente e trouxe o público a seus pés. Mas apenas quando parecia que a luta estava escapando, Cruz combateu fogo com fogo, pousando um uppercut flush segundos antes do sino.

O mexicano de 23 anos acelerou o ritmo nas últimas rodadas, mantendo Davis na ponta dos pés e batendo forte. Davis se segurou, lutando de forma equilibrada até o fim da luta.

Naturalmente, Cruz acreditava que merecia a vitória.

"Viva México. não tenho nada a dizer, os fãs estão falando sobre quem ganhou essa luta,"Ele disse.

Após uma defesa de título bem-sucedida, Davis disse que está pronto para todos os visitantes.

“L.A., nós fizemos isso por Kobe,"Disse Davis. “No começo da luta, ele veio forte. Eu senti como a luta estava indo, ele estava quebrando. Mas eu machuquei minha mão, então eu não fui capaz de tirá-lo de lá.

“Qualquer que seja a melhor oportunidade para mim, Eu vou fazer isso. Todos eles são trabalhos fáceis. Eu sou o chefe. ”

No co-main event, Sebastian “Towering Inferno” Fundora chegou mais perto de uma chance pelo título mundial com uma decisão unânime de 12 rodadas sobre o invicto Sergio Garcia em um eliminador de título WBC Super Welterweight.

Pontuações finais lidas 118-110, 117-111 e 115-113.

Fundora estabeleceu o controle rapidamente no primeiro, jogando a cabeça de Garcia da Espanha para trás com uma esquerda forte. Os dois negociaram uniformemente nas primeiras rodadas. Garcia teve seus momentos, incluindo um golpe direto à direita na quinta que tirou sangue do nariz de Fundora.

Fundora, de 23 anos, encontrou seu alcance no sexto, bombeando o jab e usando seu quadro de 1,8 m e alcance de 80 polegadas para manter Garcia longe.

“Eu estava usando muito mais minha distância. Eu queria mostrar algo diferente do que estou acostumado,”Disse Fundora. “A altura foi definitivamente uma diferença nesta luta.”

Garcia lutou para pousar durante a segunda metade da luta, salve por alguns momentos no 12th quando os dois combatentes ficaram frente a frente.

“Talvez as coisas pudessem ter sido diferentes se eu tivesse sido mais agressivo desde o início,”Disse Garcia. “Eu não deveria ter me deixado levar pelo que ele estava fazendo.”

Fundora acredita que está pronto para uma chance pelo título mundial.

“Acabamos de vencer o Não. 2 no WBC, então nós temos o nº 1, e nós temos o campeão,”Disse Fundora. “Quem quer que eles nos dêem a seguir, estamos prontos para. ”

Em um empolgante vaivém, Carlos Adames (21-1, 16 KOs) superou um duro desafio do ex-desafiante ao título mundial Sergiy Derevyanchenko (13-4, 10 KOs) para ganhar uma decisão por maioria de 10 rodadas em seu eliminador do título mundial WBC Middleweight.

Ambos os combatentes tiveram seus momentos, mas enfrentando o adversário mais difícil de sua carreira, o Adames de 27 anos brilhou. Um juiz marcou a luta dos médios mesmo em 95-95, enquanto os outros dois marcaram para Adames por dezenas de 96-94 e 97-93.

“Isso significa muito para mim na minha carreira e é uma grande conquista vencer um lutador do calibre dele,”Disse Adames, que nasceu na República Dominicana e luta em Washington Heights, na cidade de Nova York.

“Eu sou agressivo e rápido por natureza, então eu vim pronto para fazer minhas coisas. Ele começou lento, querendo ver o que aconteceria, e simplesmente tinha o plano de jogo errado. Ele ficou um pouco cansado enquanto a luta continuava, levou muitos tiros fortes de mim e era evidente que eu causei muitos danos. ”

“Espero que meu adversário lute no mesmo estilo. Não foi nada especial para mim, apenas uma luta de qualidade,"Disse Derevyanchenko.

“Ele ficou canhoto, essa foi a diferença na luta. Eu não sei o que vou fazer a seguir. Preciso descansar um pouco e depois vou voltar para a academia porque adoro boxe e adoro o show ”.

“Isso me dá a oportunidade de seguir em frente,”Disse Adames. “Eu domino em ambos 154 e 160, então, onde quer que eles me dêem a oportunidade de lutar por um campeonato, é onde eu irei. ”

Na luta de abertura da transmissão da SHOWTIME PPV, contendor superpluma Eduardo “Zurdito” Ramirez (26-2-3, 12 KOs) estava em sua melhor forma, vencendo uma decisão unânime de 10 rodadas sobre o ex-desafiante ao título mundial Miguel Marriaga.

“Gostaria de agradecer aos fãs, SHOWTIME e a família Montiel por me apoiarem. Marriaga foi um adversário difícil, mas consegui dominar,”Disse Ramirez. “Eu tinha um estilo de luta variado e o mantive alerta o tempo todo.”

Marriaga (30-5, 26 KOs) foi o agressor durante todo, particularmente na primeira rodada, quando ele apoiou Ramirez com uma combinação de socos. Este último encontrou seu alcance no meio do quadro, utilizando um jab preciso. No terceiro, um gancho de direita seguido por um overhand esquerdo com chão desequilibrado Marriaga para um knockdown flash.
“Começamos fortes, mas então as coisas ficaram cada vez mais difíceis. Tendo dito isto, estamos satisfeitos com o trabalho que realizamos hoje,”Disse Marriaga. “Deveríamos ter sido mais experientes, mas tentamos ao máximo diante de uma grande oportunidade da qual infelizmente não pudemos aproveitar. ”

Ramirez dominou após marcar o knockdown, punindo Marriaga a partir de então com uma variedade de tiros na cabeça e no corpo. Estatísticas de socos finais fizeram Ramirez pousar 280 de 762 (36.7%) socos totais para Marriaga 159 de 689 (21.3%).

“Agora vou relaxar com minha família e aproveitar as férias,”Disse Ramirez. “Então, esperançosamente 2022 virá com uma chance pelo título para mim.”

O evento pay-per-view blockbuster de hoje à noite será exibido novamente no SHOWTIME neste sábado, Dezembro 11 em 10 p.m. ET / PT. A transmissão atrasada de Davis vs. Cruz vai abrir a transmissão com WBC Bantamweight Campeão Mundial e futuro Hall of Famer Nonito Donaire enquanto ele vai defender seu título contra o invicto contendor e compatriota filipino Reymart Gaballo como atração principal em um evento Premier Boxing Champions do Dignity Health Tennis Stadium em Carson.

Van Nuys, CALIFÓRNIA. (Abril 21, 2021) – All-action heavyweight Chris “The Nightmare” Arreolashowed off his skills in the ring during a virtual media workout Wednesday, which streamed live on the Página PBC do YouTube, as he nears his clash against former unified heavyweight championAndy “The Destroyer” Ruiz Jr. that headlines a FOX Sports PBC Pay-Per-View Saturday, Maio 1 from Dignity Health Sports Park in Carson, Califórnia.

The full replay of the workout, which includes interviews with Arreola and his famed trainer Joe Goossen, can be watched AQUI.

The May 1 event is promoted by TGB Promotions. Tickets are on sale now and can be purchased at AXS.com. Dignity Health Sports Park will be open to fans in a limited capacity, with all guests remaining socially distanced and subject to local and state health guidelines throughout the event.

Arreola’s workout took place at the Ten Goose Boxing Gym in Van Nuys, California where Arreola is participating in his second training camp with Goossen. Arreola’s first fight with Goossen saw the veteran former title challenger set numerous CompuBox heavyweight records in a narrow decision loss to Adam Kownacki.

Here is what Arreola and Goossen had to say Wednesday:

Chris Arreola

“I’m ready for this fight. I’ve been waiting for this fight for four or five months. This one is going to be a barnburner for sure.

“This fight is important for my legacy. I want to make the fans happy they bought this fight. I don’t fight for paychecks. I’m a fighter for the fans. So I hope they enjoy this fight and buy this pay-per-view.

“I love what I do. I’m a fortunate person to have been a fighter since a young age. I bleed boxing. I put my whole self out there every time I fight. I know that I owe it to the fans to give them a great fight.

“Defensively I’ve grown so much working with Joe. He’s taught me a lot about keeping my hands up and countering. He hasn’t reinvented the wheel, he’s just made sure the wheel is round.

“I was able to keep up the pace against Kownacki because I did everything I had to do in the gym. I could have given three more rounds at the end of that fight too. The fight is always won in the gym and we put all of the work in to win that fight. I thought I won that fight. Despite not getting the decision, it was a fun fight for me.

"Eu me sinto ótimo. I’ve been working hard for months. I know that I have to make this a great fight for the fans and for myself. I know how crucial this fight is for my career.

“I don’t pay attention to the odds. If people want to make me the underdog, I’m comfortable with that. I’ve been an underdog my whole life.

“I’ve had some long layoffs before, so I know how to get back into it when the time comes. The sparring helps you know where your timing is at. That’s the best way to gauge where you’re at in your training camp.

“It’s a beautiful venue at Dignity Health Sports Park. There isn’t a bad seat in the house. Every time I go there I love to sit up there with all the fans and enjoy the fights. It’s going to be a fun night of boxing on May 1 and I can’t wait.”

JOE Goossen, Arreola’s Trainer

“Chris and Andy are veterans. They’ve been around a longtime. They know how to turn on the switch when the time comes. We’re preparing for a great fight on May 1.

“When you have two guys of the same talent, how do you determine who wins the fight? It’s the fighter who’s in better shape. That’s the underlying thought process here. Both Chris and Andy have talent, but our goal is for Chris to be in the best shape possible. The difference plays itself out in those last few rounds of the fight.

“You’re going to have the best Andy Ruiz that we’ve seen in this fight. And we have the same on our side. Our team has been working hard as well. I don’t expect anything but a great fight. However many rounds this goes, ele vai ser fogos de artifício.

“We’ve been training for around four months but he hasn’t peaked too early because we’ve been consistent. Once we built up to a certain point, we’ve kept it there. He’s not worn out at all. This is what fighters are supposed to do. They’re supposed to be in the gym training.

“I’m very confident and calm heading into this fight, because Chris has been doing exactly what he’s supposed to be doing. That’s all you can ask for.”

Lara will make his 2021 debut after his last fight saw him defeat Greg Vendetti by unanimous decision on FOX in August, making it three-straight fights without a loss combined with his knockout victory over Ramon Alvarez in August 2019 and a split-draw in a 2019 action fight against current 154-pound champion Brian Castano.
 
Prior to narrowly dropping 2018’s Fight of the Year to Jarrett Hurd, Lara was established as the longest-reigning 154-pound champion, owning six title defenses. Lara has faced a slew of top names in the division throughout the years, including Canelo Alvarez, Austin Trout, Alfredo Angulo, Paul Williams, Ishe Smith and Vanes Martirosyan, in addition to Hurd and Castano.
 
Here is what Lara had to say about training camp, moving up to middleweight and more:
 
On this recent training camp:
Training camp has been hard. I am working with my coach Ismael Salas, and things have just been very calculated and scientific. We got great sparring and I’m feeling young in my mind, corpo, and soul. I like the way the camp is being managed, and I expect to have a lot of success in this fight based on the preparation I have had in Las Vegas.”
 
On his matchup with LaManna:
Thomas LaManna is really big and tall and brings a unique style to the ring. This is not an easy fight at all, and I know I will have to be my very best to come out victorious. He has never fought for a world title so I am fighting a person who is looking to accomplish his lifelong dream of becoming a world champion. I am fully prepared, focused, and I’m expecting a tough fight.
 
On fighting for the vacant WBA middleweight title:
I’m looking to become a two division and three-time world champion. I take great pride in being a fighter that puts everything on the line. I want to face any-and-all challengers, and this will continue May 1. My goal is to be an all-time great and a legend in the sport. I’m moving up in weight to become a world champion and show the world I’m ready for new challenges.”
 
On what a win will do for his career:
A victory against LaManna will put me in position to challenge the other champions at middleweight. I am looking at unification bouts, I want the biggest bouts possible, but I must win this fight first. There are a lot of meaningful fights at middleweight, and I want them all. I want to be a Hall-of-Famer and go down as one of the best Cuban boxers to ever do it. For my legacy to be thought of that way, I have to fight the best.

ABEL & JESÚS RAMOS TRAINING CAMP QUOTES

“I love training with a young, hungry fighter like Jesús. We feed off of each other’s energy,” – Abel Ramos

“We both have the same goal, which is to win on May 1… If I’m ever tired, I just look to Abel and know that I have to keep pushing,” – Jesús Ramos

Welterweight Contender Abel Ramos & Rising Welterweight Star Jesús Ramos Preview Respective Showdowns on FOX Sports PBC Pay-Per-View Undercard Taking Place Saturday, Maio 1 from Dignity Health Sports Park in Carson, Califórnia

CASA GRANDE, THE. (Abril 14, 2021) – Welterweight contender Abel Ramos and his nephew, rising welterweight star Jesús Ramos, discussed their family’s bond through boxing while previewing their upcoming respective showdowns taking place Saturday, Maio 1 in FOX Sports PBC Pay-Per-View undercard action from Dignity Health Sports Park in Carson, Califórnia.

Abel Ramos will step in to face former world champion Omar “Panterita” Figueroa in the co-main event of the pay-per-view, while Jesús Ramos will battle Javier “El Intocable” Molina in a welterweight attraction that kicks off the pay-per-view at 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT.

Abel and Jesús are trained by Abel’s brother and Jesús’ father, Jesús Ramos Sr. in their hometown of Casa Grande, Arizona. Both have spoken effusively about how training alongside a family member, and a fighter at a different point in their career, helps push them during camp.


“It’s great working with Abel,” said Jesús. “We both have the same goal, which is to win on May 1. If I’m ever tired, I just look to Abel and know that I have to keep pushing. I’m always able to ask him for advice and we help each other a lot.”

“It’s great training with a young, hungry fighter like Jesús,” said Abel. “We feed off of each other’s energy, and there’s lots of competitiveness when we train. I think that’s a good thing for both of us.”

Both Abel and Jesús have known since Jesús was little that this was a path the younger Ramos would eventually walk. For Jesús, he’s always used Abel as his inspiration to help get him where he is today.

“Deep down I always knew he’d get into boxing,” said Abel. “He was at all of my fights when he was younger and he always showed an interest in the sport.”


“Abel is the guy that I’ve looked up to since I was a little kid,” said Jesús. “I watched him box from a very young age and have learned a lot from him. Seeing him do it has always inspired me. He’s always taken tough fights and that’s inspiring too. He’s played a huge role in getting me to where I am today.”


While the 20-year-old Jesús is considered a young up-and-comer in the sport, who will be taking on his toughest test May 1 in Javier Molina, Abel believes that his nephew will show wisdom beyond his years in this fight.


“People think because Jesús is young that he doesn’t have experience, but that’s where they’re wrong,” said Abel. “At a very young age he displayed a lot of the abilities of a veteran fighter. He’s always had great patience, as well as the ability to think in the ring. His ring IQ is really high for his age.”

Ahead of the two fighting Ramos’ sharing the pay-per-view undercard on May 1, here is what Abel and Jesús had to say about their training camp, their respective showdowns and more:

ABEL RAMOS

“We’re less than three weeks away now, and every week I feel stronger and more ready for May 1. I’ve been sparring with a bunch of local fighters from Arizona who are helping prepare me. The hardest part is yet to come, but I’m just focusing on the game plan and executing the same program that’s worked in the past.


“It’s great to be a part of this event and show the fans the warrior mentality that us Mexican and Mexican-American fighters have. I can’t wait to put on a great show! It’s motivating for me to showcase our warrior style and it’s making me work my absolute hardest in order to give my best on fight night.


“I learned a lot from facing Yordenis Ugas. I went back and watched that fight, and I saw some things I can improve on. It serves as motivation, but it also showed me that I belong in there with the best in the division. I don’t feel like it was a total loss because I learned from it. But in this fight, I’m going to show all the improvements I’ve made since the Ugas fight.


“I watched Figueroa’s fight against Ugas. But styles make fights and I think my fight against Figueroa is going to be different than what Figueroa and Ugas had. I expect way more action when I face Omar.


“The majority of the game plan is preparing for Figueroa to come forward. We’re getting sparring partners that mimic what Figueroa does. Even when I’m working on the heavy bag, we’re keeping that in mind. I’m constantly imagining someone in front of me who I know is going to throw a lot of punches.


"No fim do dia, I just want the win by any means necessary. I love that people are expecting a great fight from us and I just use that as motivation to prepare myself for what I know will be a grudge match.”

JESÚS RAMOS


“Everything is going how we planned for in this training camp. It’s a grind seven days a week. I’m just keeping up a good diet and focusing on strength and conditioning. We’re going 12 rounds in sparring and I’m feeling ready. I’m in great shape already and we still have two and a half weeks to go. I’ve been sparring with my uncle Abel, Jorge Cota and some other local fighters from Arizona.


“I think Molina has a lot of experience, which I know he’ll try to use against me. He’s a fighter with good speed. But when he fought Jose Pedraza, he struggled against a southpaw. Assim, I might cause him some problems there, but I’m also bigger than Pedraza. I’m a legit welterweight.


“This fight being so close to Cinco De Mayo, this is a huge deal for me. There are going to be tons of events and festivities that week and to be a part of all of that is an honor. I just want to represent Mexico in the best way that I can.


“A victory over Molina would be a big statement. A lot of people are saying that he’s my toughest opponent to date. And beating him will get me fights with some even bigger names. But I have to beat Molina first.


“I’d love to get a knockout against Molina. He’s faced some tough fighters and nobody has been able to knock him out. But if I can’t get the knockout then I just want to dominate him and look good getting the win however I can.”

The 33-year-old Martin (27-2-1, 24 KOs) became heavyweight champion in January 2016 when he won by TKO against then unbeaten Vyacheslav Glazkov. After losing his title to Anthony Joshua, Martin has won four of his last five fights, with all of his wins coming inside the distance. Originally from St. Louis, now living in Las Vegas and currently training in Southern California with Manny Robles, Martin bounced back from a narrow decision defeat to Adam Kownacki in 2018 to earn victories in 2019 against Gregory Corbin in March and Daniel Martz in July.

It is great to be back on the big stage,” disse Martin. “Wilder vs. Fury II is the biggest heavyweight fight in a long time and it’s great to be on the PPV. Fevereiro 22 will get me one step closer to my goal of becoming two-time heavyweight champion. Gerald Washington is standing in my way, so it’s my job to go right through him toward my ultimate goal.

Washington (20-3-1, 13 KOs) is a six-foot-six heavyweight contender who was a former college football standout at the University of Southern California and a U.S. Navy veteran. Born in San Jose, Califórnia, Washington scored an impressive victory in his last outing, knocking out veteran contender Robert Helenius in July. Washington was unbeaten in his first 19 lutas profissionais, before dropping his world title challenge against Deontay Wilder in February 2017.

This title eliminator is a very big opportunity for me and I’m going to do everything in my power to win on February 22,” disse Washington. “I have the right team behind me and the right mindset. I’ve known Martin my whole career and we even spent some time working together in the ring. I’m going to be at my best and I expect the same from him. It’s an honor to be a part of an event like this. Deontay and Tyson are both characters and I’m glad I can be a part of what’s going to be a great night of boxing on February 22.

Representing San Juan Zitlaltepec, Distrito Federal, México, Navarrete (30-1, 26 KOs) captured his 122-pound title by defeating Isaac Dogboe in December 2018, and emphatically retained the title by stopping Dogboe in the final round of their rematch in May 2019. The 25-year-old stayed busy after securing the title, scoring stoppage victories in successful title defenses in August, September and most recently in December, when he knocked out Francisco Horta in Mexico. He is boxing’s most active world champion, as the Santisima bout will be his fifth title defense in nine months.

I am motivated to make my fifth defense in less than a year and especially because I’m proud to be part of a historic card headlined by Wilder vs. Fury II,” said Navarrete. “This is a great opportunity to put on an exhibition for the fans and showcase my talent once again. I’m very grateful to my promoters, Bob Arum and Fernando Beltran, for giving me these opportunities.

The 23-year-old Santisima (19-2, 16 KOs) tornou-se profissional em 2013 as a 16-year-old and has not lost a fight since his fourth career contest in 2014. A native of Masbate City, Filipinas, Santisima will ride a 17-fight winning streak into his U.S. debut and his first world title opportunity on February 22. Seu 2019 campaign saw him deliver victories over Alvius Maufani in August and Rene Dacquel in December.

I really appreciate this opportunity, as this has been my dream since I was a kid,” said Santisima. “Para esta luta, I will train and prepare to become the new champion. I don’t feel any pressure. I will just do my best on fight night to show the world who I am. I heard and read the news that this fight is a mismatch, but I will do my best to give a great fight.

Towering at nearly six-feet six-inches, Fundora (13-0-1, 9 KOs) has used his height and length, combined with power and aggressiveness, to rack up an unbeaten record since turning pro in 2016. Fighting out of Coachella, Califórnia, Fundora fought three times in 2019, including TKO victories over then unbeaten fighters Donnie Marshall and Hector Manuel Zepeda. The 22-year-old most recently fought to an exciting split-draw against fellow contender Jamontay Clark in August.

A 2016 Olympian representing his native Sydney, Austrália, Lewis (6-0, 4 KOs) was unbeaten in 2019, his first year as a professional. The 26-year-old picked up his first five wins between his debut in March and his U.S. debut in November where he defeated Alexis Gaytan. Mais recentemente, Lewis knocked out then unbeaten Rivo Kundimang in December.

Eu confio na minha equipe e minhas habilidades,"Ele disse. “Eu não me preocupo com quem está na minha frente. Eu teria vencido o primeiro cara e vou vencer esse cara também. Eu não treino para vencer um lutador especificamente. Eu treino para vencer todos os lutadores e faço ajustes no ringue. Alguns lutadores ficam chateados quando o oponente muda. Eu não. Mesmo que minha equipe diga que quer que eu lute com um cara diferente na pesagem, meu trabalho continua o mesmo. ”

Ele treina no Coachella com Freddy Fundora, pai e treinador do lutador principal Sebastian Fundora. Em sua última saída em janeiro, Araujo parou o veterano Pablo Rodriguez em quatro rodadas.

This is a show not to be missed.”



O evento é promovido pela Sampson Boxing em associação com a Paco Presents. Ingressos, a partir de $10, já estão à venda e disponíveis em www.WinnaVegas.com.



“I’m very proud to present these future champions on ShoBox: A Nova Geração, a show that has built so many careers and champions,” said promoter Sampson Lewkowicz of Sampson Boxing. “It’s very exciting to present so many undefeated fighters against each other in one event. Every one of these fighters are putting their young careers on the line and three of them will move forward and three will step back that night.”



Nicknamed “The Towering Inferno” and trained by his father, the 21-year-old Fundora fought three times in 2018 and has been called the tallest 154-pound boxer in the division’s history. Often holding a five- to eight-inch height advantage over his opponents, Fundora has knocked out his last four opponents and started 2019 in electrifying fashion with a third-round knockout of then 10-0 Donnie Marshall. Nove dele 12 wins have come against opponents with winning records.



“It’s an honor to be the headliner on a ShoBox event,”Disse Fundora, originally from West Palm Beach, Fla., whose all-action style has been compared to former world champion Antonio Margarito. “My opponent, Hector Zepeda, is from a respected Tijuana boxing family and he will be very tough. A victory over an undefeated fighter like Zepeda will be a big step forward for me. Treinamento está indo bem, and I’ll be more than ready to give the fans another exciting performance on June 21.”



Also 21-years-old, Zepeda is a busy, five-year veteran who goes by the nickname “Baby” and who fought five times in 2018.

He loves to exchange blows and I am sure this is going to be a great fight. Treinamento está indo muito bem. I am working very hard physically and mentally to leave everything inside the ring June 21. A victory over Fundora on SHOWTIME will open doors, so that a lot of people will know who I am and open the way for better things in my career.”

Rivera has stopped five of his last six opponents and was last seen scoring a two-round stoppage over Argentina’s Carlos Daniel Cordoba in January. He has faced eight fighters with winning records, including two who were previously undefeated.



“I am super excited to have this opportunity to fight on ShoBox,” Rivera said. “That is where all boxers dream to fight on, especially those with less opportunities like me. My opponent is shorter than me and fights at half-distance and likes to counterattack. He uses his jab a lot and is used to fighting bigger rivals. He’s also more active the first three rounds, then starts to lower the intensity. I need to be aware of his overhand right.”



The 20-year-old Tellez Giron is a native of Queretaro, México. The undefeated slugger known as “El Bravo” is an almost four-year professional with a reputation for fighting in his opponents’ backyard and still coming away victorious.

Em sua última luta, he stopped fellow Mexican Mario Enrique Martinez in two rounds in December of last year. He has faced nine fighters with winning records, including five who were undefeated.



“In reality, para mim, this is just another fight,” Tellez Giron said. “I have been in tough fights before and this is nothing new for me. I am aiming for bigger and better things, so I feel very motivated because this is the time to demonstrate what I have and to show everyone what I am made of. Rivera is a strong fighter, who likes to use distance. I also know that he is very disciplined.”



The 23-year-old Romero is a native of Cordoba, Argentina. He won the World Boxing Council Latino Super Featherweight Title in November 2017 and defended it twice. He is also the current Argentina (FAB) Super Featherweight Title and International Boxing Federation Latino Super Featherweight Champion.



“I am a proud champion of Argentina, but now I’m ready to do what so many of my great countrymen have done and bring my skills to the world,”Disse Romero, fighting for the first time in the U.S. “It is a great honor to fight on SHOWTIME, onde tantos campeões lutaram antes de mim. Da minha estréia profissional, meu promotor Sampson Lewkowicz prometeu-me esta oportunidade e agora é aqui. Eu não vou explodi-lo. Estou treinando como todos os meus sonhos dependem de ganhar. Eles fazem."



Solano é um nativo 26-year-old de Monteria, Colômbia. O hard-perfuração Solano é um ex-Associação Mundial de Boxe Fedebol campeão de pouco peso e em 2012 terceiro colocado nos Jogos Nacionais Colômbia.

Ele está atualmente treinando em Compton Boxing Gym em Compton, Calif., e é treinado por José Ponce, Sr. e seu filho José Ponce, Jr.



“Eu me sinto muito feliz por ter esta plataforma para mostrar meu talento,”Solano disse. “Meu adversário tem um extenso registro e sei que ele é um bom lutador e, Como eu, I know that he is probably preparing for a war. I look forward to demonstrating all the hard work I am putting in for this fight and at the end of the fight, I will continue to be undefeated.”
