VERONA, N.Y.. - يونيه 10, 2022 - فنان غير مهزوم بالضربة القاضية للوزن الثقيلباخودر جالولوفاستغرق وقته ليلة الجمعة, لكن في النهاية أغلق العرض بطريقة دراماتيكية بالضربة القاضية في الجولة الثامنةجاك مولويفي الحدث الرئيسي لSHOBOX: الجيل الجديدبث تلفزيوني في Turning Stone Resort Casino في فيرونا, N.Y.. التي ساعدت في بدء عطلة نهاية الأسبوع في قاعة مشاهير الملاكمة الدولية في كاناستوتا القريبة, N.Y..

المعروفة باسم "الأوزبكية الكبيرة", 6 أقدام - 7 جالولوف, أولمبي مرتين و 2020 حائز على الميدالية الذهبية من أوزبكستان, تحسن إلى الكمال 11-0 مع 11 KOs عندما هبطت يده اليسرى الضخمة التي أرسلت مولوي (11-3-1, 7 كوس) مسطحة على ظهره في الجولة الثامنة والأخيرة.

"أشعر بشعور جيد حقًا بشأن الأداء,قال جالولوف البالغ من العمر 27 عامًا. "كان الخصم في مستوى جيد حقًا وكان مقاتلًا رائعًا. لقد كان صعبًا حقًا, رجل دائم. لقد أوقعت عليه بعض اللقطات الكبيرة ويمكنه أن يأخذ لكمة ".

أمام شخصيات من ملوك الملاكمة بما في ذلك أمثال أندريه وارد, شين موسلي, أنطونيو تارفر وتيرينس كروفورد, وضع جالولوف علامة تعجب في ليلة مثيرة من الملاكمة خلال عطلة نهاية أسبوع تاريخية في قاعة المشاهير التي ستشمل آخر ثلاث فئات من المحرضين خلال حفل يوم الأحد.

كان جالولوف مهيمنًا طوال المعركة, مع السؤال الوحيد هو ما إذا كان سيواصل خطه بالضربة القاضية أم لا. بدا الأمر مرجحًا في كل من الجولتين الثالثة والخامسة, كما تذبذب جالولوف لمولاوي لكن المباراة بلجيكا أظهرت القلب في الخروج من الجولتين سالماً.. في الجولة السادسة, تم إسقاط مولويي للمرة الثانية فقط في مسيرته من خلال عرضية على اليسار مع دق الجرس. نهض على قدميه وضرب العد, ولكن تم هدمه للأبد مع توقيع آخر باليد اليسرى في 1:20 الجولة النهائية.

"اعتقدت أنني سأوقفه في نهاية الجولة السادسة عندما أسقطته, لكن الحكم سمح له بالاستمرار وانتهت الجولة,قال جالولوف, الذي حسم نقطة لحمله في الجولة الرابعة. "اعتقدت أن هذا هو الوقت المناسب. لكن كان علي الانتظار حتى الجولة الأخيرة. أنا سعيد لأنني توقفت. أشعر وكأنني آذيته ثلاث أو أربع مرات ".

تجاوز جالولوف الدور الخامس لأول مرة في مسيرته, هبوط 47 في المئة من قوته لكمات وهبوط مولوي 99-17 في مجموع اللكمات.

في حال شارك في الرئيسية, احتمال دومينيكان للوزن الثقيل غير مهزومجورج أرياس(18-0, 7 كوس) فاز في مبارزة تكتيكية على لم يهزم من قبلالانتي جرين(10-1-1, 7 كوس) عبر تقسيم القرار مع عشرات 78-74, 77-75 لصالح أرياس و 77-75 للأخضر.

"لقد تعلمت بالتأكيد أكثر من أي شيء من هذه المعركة ، لذا أعطي أدائي C-plus أو B-minus لأن هذا هو نوع القتال الذي يجعلني أعود إلى صالة الألعاب الرياضية أكثر جوعًا وأعلم أن هناك الكثير لأفعله,قال أرياس, الذي يعيش ويتدرب الآن من برونكس. "لكننا كنا محظوظين هذه المرة لأنه كان ينبغي أن يكون أقوى قليلاً, كان من الممكن أن تكون الأمور أكثر كارثية ".

قفز أرياس إلى الصدارة في النصف الأول من القتال, تنفيذ خطة اللعبة عن طريق إخراج Green إلى صندوق خارجي والهبوط بالمُنظف, اللكمات الأصعب. نما كليفلاند غرين إلى القتال في الجولات اللاحقة, لكن الأوان كان قليلًا جدًا وتمكن أرياس من فعل ما يكفي لتأخير التجمع المتأخر.

كانت معركة صعبة للتسجيل, حيث اتفق القضاة الثلاثة على جولتين فقط من الجولات الثماني لكن الإحصائيات دعمت قرار القضاة حيث تفوق آرياس على جرين 81-58. أصبح الأخضر 213عشر مقاتل لإفساد سجله الذي لم يهزمSHOBOX.

"كل من أواجهه دائمًا يتدرب من أجلي أفضل بنسبة ألف بالمائة,تابع أرياس. "كان حقيقيا كاملا. لم يكن لديه بالضرورة أي ضعف يمكنني استغلاله. كان وقت رد الفعل الذي حظي به جيدًا حقًا وكان لديه عمل داخلي جيد حيث استغرق الأمر وقتًا طويلاً للوصول إلى منطقة لأن كل إستراتيجية استخدمتها كان يبدو أنه يتمتع برد فعل جيد ".

في افتتاح بالتليفزيون, احتمال خفيف الوزن غير مهزومتشان تونسون (11-0, 8 كوس) وضع على عرض الملاكمة, كدمات, الضرب وفي النهاية تحطيم ما لم يهزم سابقًاتايلر توملين (13-1, 9 كوس) في طريقها إلى TKO من الجولة الخامسة. أوقف الحكم مارك نيلسون العمل 1:01 في الجولة.

كنت أعرف أنه إذا بقيت في الجيب معه ، فإن الطلقات التي كنت سأعطيه إياها ستبعده,"قال تونسون الكندي, الذي تدرب من قبل الحاصل على الميدالية البرونزية الأولمبية ومنافس الوزن الثقيل الخفيف كريس جونسون. "المدهش, لقد كان أقسى قليلاً مما كنت أتصور لأنني عندما ضربته بقوة, لم يكن يتراجع. لذلك عرفت في النهاية أن هذا سيكون زواله وأن الأمر كان مجرد مسألة وقت ".

تونسون, الذي كان يقاتل للمرة الرابعة في 2022, يتحكم في الإيقاع والمسافة من جرس الافتتاح وبدا وكأنه المقاتل الأكثر استرخاءً وذوي الخبرة. لقد استخدم ضربة بالكوع ويده اليمنى المستقيمة لإحداث تورم حول عين توملين اليسرى وسببًا خطيرًا للقلق في زاوية توملين. قبل بدء الجولة الثالثة, حث والد توملين ومدربه داريل ابنه على مواكبة الوتيرة.

لكن, كان تونسون هو من داس على الغاز أكثر. في وقت متأخر من الجولة الثالثة, ألقى Thonson وابلًا من اللكمات التي أصابت توملين وتركت وجهه في فوضى دموية. صوت الجرس أنقذ توملين مؤقتًا لكن ليلته ستنتهي في الجولة الخامسة. غير قادر على تجنب العقوبة المستمرة التي كان تونسون يقذفها, تم إيقاف الإجراء بعد أن قام طبيب الصف الأول بتقييم Tomlin.

شامل, هبطت تونسون 44 في المئة من قوته لكمات وهبطت توملين 102-39 في مجموع اللكمات.

"انا اشعر بحال جيدة, أشعر وكأنني كنت في القتال. لقد تم القبض علي مع اثنين من حقوق رفع الذراع وأنا متأكد من أن أحدهما إما كسر أو كسر أنفي,قال توملين البالغ من العمر 22 عامًا. "كان في الجولة الثانية أو الثالثة عندما تم القبض علي. شعرت وألغيت خطة اللعبة بقدر ما كنت أحاول القيام به. أصبحت مترددًا أكثر مما ينبغي. أنا فقط لا أستطيع أن أتعرض للضرب من قبل تلك الحقوق المفرطة. موعد العرض, هذا ما يفعلونه, يضعون المقاتلين الجيدين ضد المقاتلين الجيدين. شعرت وكأنني سأكون في المقدمة ولكن علينا العودة ومشاهدة الفيلم ونرى ما سيحدث بعد ذلك ".

In the last round, he was catching me with head shots.

“I need to work on my left hand. I need to be like Manny Pacquiao and work on my left hand because guys know I have power in my right hook. But I’m going down to 147. That’s my true weight.”

Holmes said no matter how much Brown hurt him, he was going to push through the pain. “I was rusty. I believe I need another fight to get the rust off. My timing wasn’t there.

I started a little slow but after the first round I settled down and fought my fight. I felt fine without the headgear. We kept bumping heads, but he never hurt me. There was a lot of pressure on me, and I was a little nervous in the leadup to the fight, but once I got into the fight I relaxed and I felt comfortable. شامل, it was a great experience.”

Following a competitive first round, the 21-year-old Marquez dominated the second round, his confidence surging with every second that passed against the Dominican-born Morlaes.

“I think I did OK,” said the 30-year-old Dominican Republic-born Morales (2-1) now living in Scranton, السلطة الفلسطينية. “My strategy was to go in and box. He cut the ring off and applied good pressure. I can’t say too much because it wasn’t the best of me. He was OK. I’ll be back.”

اورلاندو, فلوريدا. – February 18, 2022 - Jamaine “The Technician”أورتيز used his superior hand and foot speed to dance and dish out punishment against gameناهر أولبرايت to win the vacant NABF title in the main event ofShoBox: الجيل الجديد as part of an action-packed doubleheader onموعد العرض Friday night at the Caribe Royale Resort.

أورتيز (15-0-1, 8 كوس) sailed to a unanimous decision win by scores of 98-92, 97-93 و 97-93 to remain undefeated and stamp his name as a player in a loaded lightweight division. انقرهنا to watch video of the decision.

Whether he was walking Albright (14-2, 7 كوس) down or punching on the move, Ortiz produced a dominant and flashy performance over 10 جولات, wowing a crowd that included former light heavyweight championانطونيو تارفير and San Francisco 49ers All-Pro offensive linemanTrent Williams. انقرهنا to watch highlights of the ninth round.

After he was dropped twice in his last fight against Joseph Adorno in a majority draw in April, Ortiz looked more poised and patient in the early going, picking his punches carefully and hitting and moving while avoiding Albright’s big right hand.

As the difference in speed became apparent, Ortiz began to open up in the second after he scored with a big left that caught Albright clean. من تلك النقطة, Ortiz maintained control of the distance and pace, leaping at Albright with lefts and rights or peppering him with jabs.

“I think I showed maturity in this fight,” Ortiz said. “I was cautious in the beginning. I didn’t want to get caught like I did in my last fight. After I took the first couple rounds to feel him out, I saw that I could do whatever I wanted in there and I started to get into a groove and let my punches go.”

أورتيز, ووستر, كتلة., هبطت 48% (103 من 216) من اللكمات قوته, مقارنة ب 41% for Albright (88 من 216), but it was his body punching that produced the biggest numerical disparity. Ortiz out-landed Albright 42 إلى 4 to the body, showcasing that aspect of his game in the fifth round when he found a home for several thudding body shots. Afterward, Ortiz called out the power-puncher Rolly Romero (14-0, 12 كوس) as the opponent he wants to face next.

“He’s got a big name,” Ortiz said. “He’s a big puncher, but he can’t box. That would be an easy fight. My goal is to have a title eliminator and to win a title. بعد ذلك, my goal is to be one of the top pound-for-pound fighters in the sport.”

Ortiz’s signature round was the sixth, when he showcased his footwork and speed, darting around the ring and landing rights and lefts. He connected with an overhand right on the run while New Jersey’s Albright was on the ropes and then landed several unanswered right uppercuts to punctuate the round.

أولبرايت, an aspiring R&B singer, showed his toughness and resilience by trying to match Ortiz’s output each round. He had success in spurts, but it was fleeting. In the ninth, he landed a pair of overhand rights, only for Ortiz to use his footwork to avoid taking further punishment.

He was the better man in there tonight,” an emotional Albright said. “It was a great experience and I saw a different look. I know that I have all the talent and ability, and this will not deter me at all from being a world champion.

في افتتاح بالتليفزيون, بول كرول وماركيز تايلور fought to a spirited split draw in their eight-round super welterweight bout by scores of 77-75 for Kroll, 80-72 for Taylor and 76-76 in a verdict that frustrated both fighters. انقرهنا to watch video of the decision.

Before the bout, Philly’s Kroll spoke of the little respect he had for Taylor’s power, since Taylor only had one knockout on his ledger, but it was Taylor who was the harder and busier puncher in the contest, relying on a check left hook that continually found its mark.

Houston’s Taylor connected on 34% of his power punches compared to 29% for Kroll, outscoring him 98 إلى 71 and out-landing him 109 إلى 84 في مجموع اللكمات.

تايلور (12-1-2, 1 KO) staggered Kroll (9-0-1, 6 كوس) in the sixth with the biggest punch of the fight, a left that caused Kroll to fall against the ropes as Taylor followed up with digging shots to the body.

I thought I had it for sure,” Taylor said. “I thought I had the fight in the bag. I don’t know what the judges saw. I was being the aggressor and I landed the clearer shots. I thought I really had that fight with no questions. I don’t know what else I could’ve done.”

The busier and fresher fighter, Taylor didn’t sit in between rounds and at times had to be restrained by his trainer from running to the middle of the ring before his minute of rest was up.

Normally a patient and technically sound fighter, كرول, a former amateur star who won the 2016 الامريكى. المحاكمات الأولمبية للملاكمة, went after Taylor in the first, throwing a wild right hand that continually missed its mark.

Kroll fought well in spurts and with urgency in the eighth and final round, but Taylor was ready for him.

“I thought I won the fight 5-3,” Kroll said. “I took the beginning and the end. He won a couple rounds in the middle. We can run it back on the next ShoBox. I am ready to fight him again. He was awkward, but I outworked him on the inside. I won that fight.”

It was the first time the Dominican suffered a cut in his professional career. De Los Santos also had a point taken away in the fourth for holding. Fatigue was also a factor as De Los Santos had never been past the sixth round in his young career and seemed to run out of gas as the fight wore on.

“I was pressuring him the whole time and I knew he was slowing down and eventually I would get to him,” said Foster, who kept moving forward as the fight progressed and dictated and landed the more powerful punches. “I thought it was the right decision because I was landing more shots as the fight went on.”

The 28-year-old Foster – the younger brother of 20-0 professional light heavyweight prospect Charles Foster – was surprised with how fast De Los Santos started. “I knew I had to stay calm, and I adapted and my experience allowed me to adjust to what was happening,” Foster said. “He wasn’t devastating, and the punches never hurt me. I knew he would slow down and when he did, I began to land my shots and had success with my pressure.”

Regarding the point deduction in the fourth, De Los Santos disagreed with the referee’s decision. “I didn’t think the point should have been deducted,” said De Los Santos, who had scored stoppages in his last seven fights. “I thought I should have been warned first.

“I thought it was a close fight, but I thought I did enough to earn the victory. I was landing the harder shots throughout and he never hurt me.”

Added De Los Santos: “He was a little awkward and he came with a little more than we thought he would, but I still thought I won. He was aggressive and maybe I slowed down a little as the fight went on, but I still thought I was landing. This is a setback but I’ll learn from this and come back better.”

International Boxing Hall of Famer Barry Tompkins called the action from ringside alongside former world champion Raul Marquez and renowned combat sports expert Brian Campbell serving as expert analysts. Hall of Famer Steve Farhood was the unofficial scorer. كان المنتج التنفيذي هو جوردون هول مع إنتاج ريتش غوغان وإخراج ريك فيليبس.

The event was promoted by Sampson Boxing. الShoBox سيتم إعادة بث tripleheader يوم الإثنين الساعة 11 عصرا. ET / PT على شوتايم EXTREME®.

THIS FRIDAY’S SHOBOX: THE NEW GENERATION EMANATING FROM A UNIQUE SETTING FOR BOXING, OUTDOORS IN DOWNTOWN BROKEN ARROW, أوكلاهوما

(Broken Arrow, حسنا) As part of Showtime’s 20th anniversary season of ShoBox: الجيل الجديد, يوم الجمعة, سبتمبر 24, 2021, Salita Promotions will return to one of the most unique fight venues in the United States, outdoors in the City of Broken Arrow, Oklahoma’s arts and entertainment district, for a live tripleheader broadcast featuring six prospects boasting combined records of 72-2-1.


Set in the middle of the scenic city’s town square, in the 10-round bantamweight main event bout, 26-year-old Detroit native Ja’Rico O’Quinn (14-0-1, 8 كوس) will face California’s 24-year-old Saul Sanchez (16-1, 9 كوس). The co-main event will pit undefeated featherweight prospects Jayvon Garnett (10-0, 5 كوس) and Luis Reynaldo Nunez (11-0, 8 كوس) against each other in a ten-round bout and in the opener, Alejandro Guerrero (12-1, 9 كوس) faces the undefeated Otar Eranosyan (9-0, 6 كوس) in an eight-round super featherweight contest.


The event will be Salita Promotions’ second attempt to stage a fight at the outdoor boxing hotbed. في أغسطس 2019, a Salita event featuring undefeated Uzbek Shohjahon Ergashev had to be moved to the nearby confines of the Central Park Community Center due to rain.


“I am thrilled that Showtime selected Broken Arrow for these boxing matches during ShoBox’s 20th anniversary,” said Broken Arrow Mayor Debra Wimpee. “I can’t think of a better place to showcase these amazing athletes than right here in the beautiful and award-winning Rose District. The atmosphere on Main St. is going to be like nothing we’ve seen before, and I’m excited that a global audience will get to see what we Broken Arrowans have known all along. The Rose District and our citizens are second to none when it comes to celebrating the arts and entertainment.”


Promoter Dmitriy Salita says he’s hopeful this time the weather will cooperate and set the stage for an unforgettable setting for the fights Friday night.


“I am honored to promote the September 24 ShoBox in such a unique outside setting,"سعيد كلمة. “The City of Broken Arrow have been wonderful hosts and we are happy to be returning for this out-of-the-ordinary ShoBox event. The weather reports are favorable this time and we have a fantastic show lined up with crossroads fights, top to bottom.”


In the unlikely event of inclement weather, the show will once again relocate to Central Park Community Center at 1500 S. Main St.


O’Quinn vs. Sanchez – 10-Round Bantamweight Main Event Bout


Previously rated in the top-ten in the world by the WBO at 115 جنيه, O’Quinn last fought at 118 pounds in a dominating unanimous decision over Oscar Vasquez in the 250th edition of ShoBox in January 2020. Ranked as the No. 1 amateur bantamweight in the country compiling a record of 130-18 قبل احترافه في 2015, O’Quinn boasts blazing-fast hands and an ability to throw effortless combinations. A fan favorite in his hometown of Detroit, he was busy in 2018 و 2019, winning three times in each year, with five of the six fights taking place in his home state of Michigan.


“I’ve been waiting for this moment,” said O’Quinn. “I can’t wait to show my talent to the world again. I don’t really know much about him, but he better learn all he can about me. Not that it will help him any. I’m going to win because there are levels to this and he is not on my level. That will be very apparent quickly. I’m a strong force in the bantamweight division. Training is going good but it’s hard. I train hard and fight easy.”


The 24-year-old Sanchez, الذي يأتي في المرتبة لا. 8 by the WBA at 118 جنيه, is riding a four-fight winning streak. الأخير المهلة, Sanchez made quick work of Frank Gonzalez, knocking him down three times en route to a first-round stoppage. The Pacoima, كاليفورنيا. native scored an eighth-round stoppage of Brandon Benitez in an entertaining and all-action fight in his ShoBox debut in May 2019. He dropped his next fight, a split decision to Edwin Rodriguez, but rebounded with a unanimous decision over Victor Trejo Garcia to jumpstart his winning streak. Trained by Manny Robles, Sanchez is the younger brother of 19-1 professional featherweight Emilio Sanchez.


“This is the biggest fight of my career on the biggest stage of my career, and I’m not going to let this opportunity pass me by,"وقال سانشيز. “I’m going to show everyone watching on SHOWTIME that I belong with the big boys. O’Quinn is a good fighter but I’m going to give him his first loss. I’m at a point in my career where I need to make that turning point to a world title shot, and that time is now.”


Garnett vs. Nunez – 10-Round Super Featherweight Bout


Jayvon Garnett hails from the boxing talent-laden city of Cincinnati, أوهايو, where he first put on a pair of boxing gloves at the age of six. He had a stellar amateur career fighting over 110 مواعيد, developing his style and sharpening his skills in Ohio’s very competitive amateur boxing scene. The 26-year-old is coming off his career-best professional win, a unanimous decision over the once-beaten Jose Argel in June. Combining exceptional quickness and accuracy with a propensity for power, the 5’3” Garnett stopped five of his first six professional opponents. He has won his last four contests on the scorecards, all unanimously.


“It feels great to be fighting on SHOWTIME,” said Garnett. “I always dreamed of fighting on big platforms, but never dreamed it would be ShoBox for my first TV fight. أنا لا أعرف الكثير عن خصمي, but I will win this fight because I’m smarter. في الحلقة, I’m a boxer and a thinker, but I also have heavy punches. بهذا الفوز, I’m going to the next level up the ladder and getting closer to being in the world rankings.”


A decorated amateur in the Dominican Republic, Puerto Plata’s Luis Reynaldo Nunez started boxing at age eight and went on to win a number of national championships as a member of the Dominican national team, including gold in the 2016 Youth Championship. A fan-friendly pressure fighter with heavy hands, Nunez turned professional at 18, passing every test put in front of him in his native country. His unblemished resume includes a unanimous decision over then 20-3-1 Eliezer Aquino and a fourth-round KO over then once-beaten Giovanni Gutierrez.


“I am extremely grateful for the opportunity to be fighting on SHOWTIME,” said the 21-year-old Nunez, who will be fighting outside of the Dominican Republic for the first time. “My opponent is a good fighter but I am here to show him what happens against real competition. Thanks to my team for getting me this opportunity and I look forward to making a splash on national television.”


Guerrero vs. Eranosyan – Eight-Round Lightweight Bout


القتال من هيوستن, تكساس, Guerrero is a big-punching prospect who will be making his third appearance on ShoBox, looking to improve his record to 2-1 on the prospect development series. He won a closely contested slugfest via majority decision over Jose Angulo in March 2020, but was upset by Abraham Montoya in February. A celebrated amateur who won two junior national titles, the 23-year-old “Pork Chop” has sparred with the likes of world champions Mikey Garcia and Brandon Rios at the famed Garcia Boxing Academy in California.


“Training is going great,” said Guerrero. “I’ve been in shape for two months so now it’s just touching up basic stuff here and there with my technique. I know Eranosyan will be tough, so we’re going in with a strong mind knowing he can fight. I’m training hard because I will have to be more than ready. The guy will not be a walk in the park. But I have a different mentality now. The last fight, I went in with the mentality of ‘I can beat everybody.This one, I have to go in with a smart mind and actually box the guy and use all my skills.”


Ranked No. 9 by the WBA at 130 جنيه, Eranosyan was a highly decorated Georgian amateur who has transitioned seamlessly into the paid ranks. The 27-year-old didn’t turn professional until August 2020, but has already fought nine times. Now based in Miami Beach, فلوريدا., “Pitbull” owns two notable fourth-round KOs over the 32-4 Juan Carlos Pena, including in his last time out on August 13. Eranosyan will make his ShoBox debut as he fights for the seventh time in 2021, which also marks his first pro fight outside of Florida.


“I haven’t studied Guerrero too much, but I watched a couple fights and he’s a good fighter with very good punching power and very good stamina,” said Eranosyan. “I’m adding a lot of stamina training and working on my legs for this fight to be ready for him. I don’t know exactly what will happen, but simply I am the best in the division, so I will win.”

CLARESSA SHIELDS DOMINATES MARIE-EVE DICAIRE, MAKES HISTORY AS THE FIRST BOXER TO BE CROWNED UNDISPUTED CHAMP IN A SECOND WEIGHT DIVISION

UNDEFEATED STAR CITES JUNE IN LAS VEGAS FOR HER MMA DEBUT; CALLS OUT KATIE TAYLOR AND SAVANNAH MARSHALL IN POST-FIGHT INTERVIEW

(الجمعة, مارس 5, 2021 – Flint, لي) Women’s superstar Claressa شيلدز furthered her claim as boxing’s “GWOAT” Friday night and became the unified WBC, المنظمة العالمية للملاكمة, اتحاد الملاكمة العالمي & WBA Super Junior Middleweight World Champion, by scoring a one-sided 10-round unanimous decision over ماري إيف ديكاير سانت يوستاش, كيبيك, كندا, in the 10-round main event of the historic all-women’s “امراة خارقة: الدروع مقابل. ديكير event at the Dort Financial Center and live on pay-per-view in Shields’ hometown of Flint, ميشيغان.

الدروع (11-0, 2 كوس) also became the first boxer in the four-belt era to become an undisputed world champion in two weight divisions by virtue of her shutout victory (100-90 by all three judges) over now former champion Dicaire (17-1).

Uncharacteristically, the 25-year-old Shields turned counterpuncher early in this fight, to offset Dicaire’s attempts to bounce in and out of range. Relying on her reflexes to punish any attempt at aggression by Dicaire, Shields shut the Canadian down and then turned back to her customary forward aggression later in the bout.

Dicaire landed a quality southpaw left on Shields in round four, possibly her only significant blow of the fight, and Shields simply shook it off to no effect.

I can’t be mad about my performance,” said Shields after the bout. “She just kept elbowing and headbutting me. I tried for the knockout and I almost had it a couple times, but we’ve got two minutes and the ref not breaking it up when she’s holding me and elbowing me. I’m happy but I still wanted the knockout. I just didn’t have enough time. في نهاية اليوم, I am the new undisputed champ at 154 and the first boxer to be undisputed champ twice.”

Shields said she was happy to have accomplished her latest piece of history in front of her family and friends in Flint, even if the pandemic meant a lot fewer fans in attendance.

“With Covid, we couldn’t have a full capacity. يوجد 300 here and that’s the capacity of the day, so we have a full house. We couldn’t have full capacity, but I know if we could have, we would have had 6000 people in here. I’m happy to have been able to do it here (in Flint). I started boxing here at Berston Fieldhouse at 11 سنة. Never in a million years did I think I’d be on pay-per-view and fighting for an undisputed title and be one of the biggest stars in boxing. I just wanted to win an Olympic Gold medal. God has given me two Olympic medals. لدي 12 championship belts now. It doesn’t feel real to say undisputed twice.”

When asked about two of her remaining rivals in boxing, fellow superstar Katie Taylor of Ireland and her one-time conqueror in the amateurs, Savannah Marshall of the UK, Shields brimmed with confidence.

“Katie Taylor is not the worry. 147 pounds is. They’d have to pay me a lot to lose my butt and go down to 147. في نهاية اليوم, I’m a woman. I don’t have big breasts, but I got a nice butt, so come with that dough and I’ll be there. At least a million and I’ll be there.

“Savannah Marshall can’t f*** with me. دعونا يبقيه الحقيقي. Savannah Marshall, you won a lucky decision when we were kids. Also London was hosting the Olympics. If you want to gloat about beating me 14 points to 8… come on now. And then I went on to become world champion in three different division and she broke. She knows she cannot and will not ever be able to f*** with me. She can come to America. I will go to the UK. We can go to Mexico. We can go anywhere, and I will f*** her up. She knows that. She’s scared of me. Savannah Marshall can get it. Tell Eddie Hearn, he came that whack-ass 250K. Tell him to come with 500K… 750K if he wants me to go to the UK and smoke his girl. Pay me.”

Dicaire continued her graciousness in post-fight questioning and promised not to let the loss dampen her future in the sport.

“I think Claressa did a good job tonight,قال ديكاير. “Tonight, she was the best. Sometimes you win and sometimes you learn. هذه الليلة, I learned. I think this is just going to allow me to grow stronger. I don’t box to protect my record or keep my record at 0 خسائر. I box to beat champions. هذه الليلة, I had the chance to fight the real champion. She won this time but count on me to go back to the gym and work hard and be world champion again for sure.

الدروع, who says her much-publicized MMA debut will likely be in Las Vegas in June, threw 409 punches in the fight and landed 128 بما فيه 34.9% of her power punches. Dicaire threw 263 punches in return but landed just 31.

“Flint Michigan got the baddest boxer in the world!” said Shields to her fans. “We two-time undisputed. Pacquiao who? Canelo who? When someone else does what I did let me know.”



في الحدث الرئيسي المشارك ليلة, Houston’s undefeated Danielle Perkins (3-0, 1 KO) showed marked improvement and had a much easier time in her rematch against Georgia’s Monika “Lay Em Down” Harrison (2-2, 1 KO), scoring a dominant eight-round unanimous decision while picking up the WBC Silver Heavyweight Championship in the process.

The former amateur world champion Perkins used every bit of her superior athleticism, 6’ height and 72-inch reach to move around the ring and keep the 5’ 10” Harrison at bay with a punishing southpaw right jab and a steady diet of strong left hands to the head and body. في اوقات, Referee Michael Griffin appeared to be considering a stoppage, but the durable Harrison kept coming forward and swinging for the fences for all eight rounds, despite the firepower coming her way.

وكانت عشرات 80-72 من جميع القضاة الثلاثة.

“I apologize for not getting a knockout. I swear next time I’ll come back and give it to you, صوان,” said Perkins, بعد المباراة. “Monika made some adjustments this time. I hit her with some solid hammers and that girl stayed on her feet so kudos to her.”

Perkins threw 353 punches in the fight and landed 121 بما فيه 40.9% of her power shots. Harrison threw 273 shots, but only found a home for 21 منهم.

“I want to be the undisputed female heavyweight champion of the world,” continued Perkins. “I want to be the best you’ve ever seen.”

Undefeated bantamweight Jamie “The Miracle” Mitchell (6-0-2, 43 كوس) of Pacific Grove, كاليفورنيا, looked impressive in battering and stopping more-experienced veteran Noemi “La Rebelde / No-No” Bosques (12-16-3, 2 كوس) in five one-sided rounds.

With the two-fisted punishment from Mitchell steadily increasing with every passing round, Referee Gerard White decided the stumbling and retreating Bosques had had enough and mercifully waved the fight off at 1:49 of the fifth.

“I was just zoned out. I was doing whatever fit the moment,” said Mitchell, بعد المباراة. “That’s how I got the knockout. Thanks to my coaches and thanks to Claressa Shields for putting me on this card. This is an unforgettable moment for women.”

Prior to scoring the technical knockout, Mitchell landed 48% (80/167) of her power punches, و 40% (94/234) of her total punches. Noemi Bosques only landed 24 من 153 اللكمات.

“I like to pick on myself to do better,” said Mitchell of her performance. “There were certain things I wanted to do, but they don’t call this girl a gatekeeper for nothing. I wish I had gotten her out of there quicker and been crisper with my jab. She was a bit tricky.”

In the opening bout of the broadcast, 2012 الميدالية البرونزية الاولمبية Marlen Esparza(9-1, 1 KO) stayed busy ahead of her scheduled challenge of WBC Flyweight Champion Ibeth Zamora in April with a dominant six-round unanimous decision over Canada’sShelly Barnett (الآن 4-4-2, 2 KO).

Barnett tried to be aggressive, but Esparza’s skills allowed her to pot shot her bigger opponent, nearly at will, especially as the fight wore on. “We knew she was tough and bigger,” said Esparza. “I wanted someone with more weight because I never fight above 112 رطل. and I think I handled it well. I’m happy about the way everything played out. I’m happy to have been part of this event and to be working with Claressa again.”

Padilla turned professional in December 2016 after a stellar amateur career that included three National Championships and a record of 90-7. He trains alongside former world champions Tevin Farmer and Jason Sosa under trainer Raul “Chino” Rivas.

“أولا وقبل كل شيء, أريد أن أشكر الله, my family and my team for keeping me positive through these hard times,” said Padilla. “I am very excited for this opportunity to showcase my skills in front of a national audience. I have sacrificed a lot to get to this point in my career. It takes a lot of dedication to the sport and I am confident that it will pay off.

Thomas Velasquez is a good fighter and this is a good matchup, but may the best man win.

فيلاسكيز, another Philadelphia native, made his professional debut in 2015 and looked to be rapidly rising through the ranks, winning his first nine fights including five by way of knockout. A draw with Tyrome Jones in September 2017 stalled his career to a near standstill, as he did not fight again until 2020 when he scored a third-round KO over veteran Gustavo Molina in his return bout. The 25-year-old will look to regain the momentum he had earlier in his career with a win over the highly regarded Padilla. كهاو, Velasquez had a 30-3 record and won the Pennsylvania State Golden Gloves. He is trained by Hamza Muhammad, who also trains the newly crowned WBO Junior Featherweight World Champion Stephen Fulton Jr.

I look forward to putting on a spectacular performance on March 10 and leaving that ring with my unbeaten record intact.
