VERONA, N.Y.. - Юни 10, 2022 - Непобеден артист с нокаут в тежка категорияБаходир Джалоловотдели време в петък вечер, но в крайна сметка затвори шоуто по драматичен начин с нокаут в осмия рундДжак Мулоуейв главното събитие наSHOBOX: Новото поколениетелевизионно предаване в Turning Stone Resort Casino във Верона, N.Y.. което помогна за началото на Уикенда за въвеждане в Международната боксова зала на славата в близката Канастота, N.Y..

Известен като „Голям узбек“, 6-foot-7 Jalolov, двукратен олимпиец и 2020 Златен медалист от Узбекистан, подобрена до перфектна 11-0 с 11 Нокаут, когато той приземи огромна лява ръка, която изпрати Mulowayi (11-3-1, 7 Нокаута) по гръб в осмия и последен рунд.

„Чувствам се много добре от представянето,”, каза 27-годишният Джалолов. „Противникът беше на наистина добро ниво и страхотен боец. Той беше наистина корав, издръжлив човек. Направих му няколко големи удара и той може да поеме един удар.”

Пред кой е кой от кралските особи на бокса, включително хора като Андре Уорд, Шейн Мосли, Антонио Тарвър и Терънс Крауфорд, Джалолов постави удивителен знак на една вълнуваща боксова нощ по време на историческия уикенд на въвеждането в Залата на славата, което ще включва последните три класа новобранци по време на церемонията в неделя.

Джалолов доминираше през цялата битка, като единственият въпрос е дали той ще продължи нокаутната си серия или не. Изглеждаше вероятно и в третия, и в петия рунд, тъй като Jalolov разклати Mulowayi, но играта Белгия показа сърце, като излезе невредима и от двата рунда. В шестия кръг, Mulowayi беше изпуснат само за втори път в кариерата си от ляво центриране, когато камбаната прозвуча. Той стана на крака и победи графа, но беше съборен завинаги с още един подпис от лявата ръка 1:20 от последния кръг.

„Мислех, че ще го спра в края на шестия рунд, когато го изпуснах, но реферът го остави да продължи и рундът приключи,каза Джалолов, на когото беше отнета точка за задържане в четвъртия кръг. „Мислех, че това е моментът. Но трябваше да изчакам до последния кръг. Щастлив съм, че получих спирането. Имам чувството, че съм го наранил три или четири пъти.

Джалолов премина петия рунд за първи път в кариерата си, приземяване 47 процент от силата му удари и надхвърля Mulowayi 99-17 в общи удари.

В съвместно основното събитие, непобеден доминиканец в тежка категорияДжордж арии(18-0, 7 Нокаута) спечели тактически дуел над непобедения преди товаАланте Грийн(10-1-1, 7 Нокаута) чрез разделно решение с точки от 78-74, 77-75 в полза на Ариас и 77-75 за Green.

„Определено научих повече от всичко от тази битка, така че давам C-плюс или B-минус на представянето си, защото това е типът битка, която ме кара да се връщам във фитнеса по-гладен и да знам, че има много повече за вършене,“, каза Ариас, който сега живее и тренира извън Бронкс. „Но този път бяхме благословени, защото трябваше той да бъде малко по-силен, нещата можеха да бъдат по-катастрофални.

Arias изскочи до командваща преднина през първата половина на битката, изпълнение на плана за игра чрез изхвърляне на Грийн и приземяване на чистия, по-силни удари. Грийн на Кливланд прерасна в битката в по-късните кръгове, но беше твърде малко твърде късно и Ариас успя да направи достатъчно, за да задържи късното рали.

Беше трудна битка за отбелязване на гол, тъй като и тримата съдии се съгласиха само за два от осемте рунда, но статистиката на ударите подкрепи решението на съдиите, тъй като Ариас победи Грийн 81-58. Зеленото стана 213тата боец, за да бъде развален неговият непобеден рекордSHOBOX.

„Всеки, срещу когото се изправям, винаги тренира за мен хиляда процента по-добре,“, продължи Ариас. „Той беше наистина завършен. Не е задължително той да има слабост, която да използвам. Времето за реакция, което имаше, беше наистина добро и имаше добра вътрешна работа на краката, където ми отне малко повече време, за да вляза в зона, защото всяка стратегия, която използвах, той изглежда имаше добра реакция.

В телевизията отварачка, непобедена лека перспективаЧан Тонсън (11-0, 8 Нокаута) постави на боксов дисплей, синини, поразяване и евентуално разбиване на непобедените преди товаТайлър Томлин (13-1, 9 Нокаута) на път за технически нокаут в петия рунд. Реферът Марк Нелсън спря действието 1:01 в кръглата.

„Знаех, че ако остана в джоба с него, инжекциите, които щях да му дам, ще го отблъснат,“, каза Тонсън от Канада, който е трениран от бивш олимпийски бронзов медалист и претендент в полутежка категория Крис Джонсън. „Изненадващо, той беше малко по-твърд, отколкото си мислех, защото когато го ударих силно, той не правеше крачка назад. Така че в крайна сметка знаех, че това ще бъде неговата собствена смърт и беше просто въпрос на време.

Тонсън, който се биеше за четвърти път в 2022, контролираше темпото и разстоянието от началната камбана и изглеждаше като по-спокоен и опитен боец. Той използва удара си и правата си дясна ръка, за да причини едновременно подуване около лявото око на Томлин и сериозна причина за безпокойство в ъгъла на Томлин. Преди началото на третия кръг, Бащата и треньорът на Томлин Дарил призова сина си да ускори темпото.

Обаче, Тонсън беше този, който натисна още повече газта. Късно в третия кръг, Thonson нанесе порой от удари, които нараниха Tomlin и оставиха лицето му кървава каша. Звукът на камбаната временно спаси Томлин, но нощта му щеше да приключи в петия рунд. Не можеше да избегне постоянното наказание, което Thonson раздаваше, действието беше спряно, след като лекарят край ринга оцени Томлин.

Общо, Тонсън се приземи 44 процент от силата му удари и надви Томлин 102-39 в общи удари.

"Чувствам се добре, Чувствам се като в битката. Току-що ме хванаха с две десни и съм почти сигурен, че едната ми счупи или счупи носа,“, каза 22-годишният Томлин. „Беше във втория или третия рунд, когато ме хванаха. Почувствах и това отхвърли плана на играта, що се отнася до това, което се опитвах да направя. Станах малко по-колеблив, отколкото трябваше. Просто не мога да бъда ударен от тези свръхправа. ВРЕМЕ ЗА ШОУ, това е, което те правят, те поставят добри бойци срещу добри бойци. Имах чувството, че ще изляза на върха, но трябва да се върнем и да гледаме филм и да видим какво следва.”

(Holmes scores unanimous decision, кликванеТУК)

“I was reborn tonight,” Holmes said. “This performance showed that I still have it in me. I hurt my left hand in the second round. I couldn’t punch how I wanted to. I was in a bunch of pain but I pulled through. Thinking about my family pushed me through the pain.”

The 27-year-old southpaw Holmes had a 194-129 edge in total punches while landing more than 40 процента на Неговата сила удари. A total of 280 of the combined 323 total punches landed were power punches.

"Той беше най-добър човек довечера,” Brown said. “I give it up to him. He studied me. He knew the punches I was going to throw. His corner kept yelling, ‘Watch the right hook.’ He did knock the wind out of me a couple times with body shots. I had to take a second to recover. 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’ve been off for like 800 дни, but this fight showed that I have a lot of heart. I want Paul Kroll next. He was talking a lot of junk against me. We have a history in the amateurs. He’s who I want.”

В съвместно основното събитие, heavy-hitting lightweightЕдуин де лос сантос (14-1, 13 Нокаута) scored a devastating second-round knockout againstLuis Acosta (12-1, 11 Нокаута), who suffered the first loss of his career.Acosta became the 211тата fighter to have his undefeated streak snapped in the 21-year history of the prospect series.

“One-hitter quitter for De Los Santos!"SHOBOX аналитикБрайън Кембълsaid of De Los Santos’ clean left cross that sent Acosta to the canvas as referee Mark Nelson signaled the end of the fight at 48 seconds in the second round.

“It was a left hand that was just a thing of beauty,” said International Boxing Hall of Famer andSHOBOXblow-by-blow announcerBarry Томпкинс.

Dominican Republic’s De Los Santos landed 19 punches before scoring the fight-ending knockout in his secondSHOBOX appearance.

"Аз съм назад,” said De Los Santos, who suffered a loss in his first SHOBOX appearance in January to William Foster III. “Everyone was counting me out after the last fight. They thought I was done after the loss to Foster. But I’m back. This is the kind of statement that I should have made last time. This is a new beginning for me. I thought I was going to catch him later in the fight but the opening came early with the straight left. My preparation was just better this time, I was just more focused and better prepared and this was the result. I’m ready for anyone.”

В телевизията отварачка, highly regarded prospectGiovanni Márquez (1-0) became the seventh fighter in the history ofSHOBOXto make his professional debut on the series, extending the streak to 7-0 in those bouts as Marquez scored a four-round unanimous decision over a gameNelson Morales. Резултатите бяха 40-36, и 39-37 twice in the welterweight bout.

(Marquez scores unanimous decision, кликванеТУК)

“I felt great,- каза Маркес. “I hurt my left hand in the second round on a jab. I think I would have been able to stop him if I hadn’t hurt my hand.”

With his father and trainer, Бившият световен шампионРаул Маркес, barking instructions from his corner, Houston’s Márquez – the 2021 national Golden Gloves 152-pound champion – dominated the welterweight affair, displaying his offensive skills and using his jab and uppercut effectively as the quicker and busier fighter. Marquez landed 30 процента от общите му удари (85 за 280) compared to Morales at 21 на сто (42 към 201).

“All the attention, it’s really not normal for a 21-year-old,” said the elder Marquez, as he joined Tompkins and Campbell in the booth before the main event. “He handled all the pressure. I’m really proud of my son. I’m very satisfied.”

Added Giovanni: “It was a great experience. He was a tough, издръжлив човек, but I feel like I handled everything, the cameras, all the attention pretty well. 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. Общо, 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, Татко. “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.”

The six other fighters’ victorious in theirSHOBOX pro debut include Dominic Breazeale, Маркъс Браун, Теръл Gausha, Ерол Спенс Jr., Rau’Shee Warren and Gary Russell, Jr.

ORLANDO, Fla. - февруари 18, 2022 - Jamaine “The Technician”Ortiz used his superior hand and foot speed to dance and dish out punishment against gameNahir Albright to win the vacant NABF title in the main event ofShoBox: Новото поколение as part of an action-packed doubleheader onSHOWTIME Friday night at the Caribe Royale Resort.

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

Whether he was walking Albright (14-2, 7 Нокаута) down or punching on the move, Ortiz produced a dominant and flashy performance over 10 кръга, wowing a crowd that included former light heavyweight championAntonio Tarver and San Francisco 49ers All-Pro offensive linemanTrent Williams. КликнетеТУК 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. From that point on, 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,- каза Ортис. “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.”

Ortiz, от Уорчестър, Mass., поземлен 48% (103 на 216) от неговите силови удари, в сравнение с 41% for Albright (88 на 216), but it was his body punching that produced the biggest numerical disparity. Ortiz out-landed Albright 42 към 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 Нокаута) as the opponent he wants to face next.

“He’s got a big name,- каза Ортис. “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. След това, 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.

Albright, 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.”

В телевизията отварачка, Пол Kroll иMarquis Taylor 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. КликнетеТУК 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 към 71 и го кацнете извън него 109 към 84 в общи удари.

Taylor (12-1-2, 1 KO) staggered Kroll (9-0-1, 6 Нокаута) 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, Kroll, a former amateur star who won the 2016 U.S. Olympic боксови Trials, 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.”

The 28-year-old Eranosyan nicknamed “Pitbull” made hisShoBox debut in September and defeated the highly regarded Alejandro “Pork Chop” Guerrero via unanimous decision in Broken Arrow, Оклахома.

В телевизията отварачка, Уилям Фостър III passed a difficult test, earning a hard-fought split decision againstЕдуин де лос сантос в осем кръгли супер перо мач. Двама съдии отбелязаха борбата 77-74 twice for Foster, с трети съдия точкуване него 77-74 in favor of De Los Santos.(Foster’s split-decision winТУК)

Foster (14-0, 9 Нокаута) of West Haven, Кон., overcame a slow start but was the busier fighter, outthrowing De Los Santos 468-421. Борбата в неговия U.S. дебют, the power-punching De Los Santos (13-1, 12 Нокаута) от Санто Доминго, Доминиканската република, had an eventful fourth round, suffering a cut above his left eye, which seemed to slow him over the final four rounds. 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. Изпълнителен продуцент е Гордън Хол с продуцент на Рич Гоган и Рик Филипс.

The event was promoted by Sampson Boxing. TheShoBox tripleheader ще бъде излъчен отново в понеделник в 11 p.m. ET / PT на SHOWTIME EXTREME®.

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

Оставете коментар
(Broken Arrow, Добре) As part of Showtime’s 20th anniversary season of ShoBox: Новото поколение, този петък, Септември 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 Нокаута) will face California’s 24-year-old Saul Sanchez (16-1, 9 Нокаута). The co-main event will pit undefeated featherweight prospects Jayvon Garnett (10-0, 5 Нокаута) and Luis Reynaldo Nunez (11-0, 8 Нокаута) against each other in a ten-round bout and in the opener, Алехандро Гереро (12-1, 9 Нокаута) faces the undefeated Otar Eranosyan (9-0, 6 Нокаута) in an eight-round super featherweight contest.


The event will be Salita Promotions’ second attempt to stage a fight at the outdoor boxing hotbed. През август 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,"Саид Word. “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 паунда, 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 преди да се обърне професионалист в 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 и 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, който се класира Не. 8 by the WBA at 118 паунда, is riding a four-fight winning streak. Неговото последно време,, Sanchez made quick work of Frank Gonzalez, knocking him down three times en route to a first-round stoppage. The Pacoima, Халиф. 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,- каза Санчес. “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, Ohio, where he first put on a pair of boxing gloves at the age of six. He had a stellar amateur career fighting over 110 пъти, 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. Аз не знам много за моя опонент, but I will win this fight because I’m smarter. В пръстена, I’m a boxer and a thinker, but I also have heavy punches. С тази победа, 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. Фен-приятелски борец под налягане с тежки ръце, Нунес се превърна в професионалист в 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.”


Воин срещу. Eranosyan – Eight-Round Lightweight Bout


Борбата от Хюстън, Texas, 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. Известен аматьор, който спечели две национални титли за юноши, 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.”


Класиран №. 9 by the WBA at 130 паунда, 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, Fla., “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.”

Kalvin is a come-straight-forward fighter and he punches hard. I was supposed to fight him before, so this fight has been brewing for a while.”

Janelson Bocachica vs. Shinard Bunch – 10-round Welterweight Bout

A native of Puerto Rico and fighting out of Detroit, Mich., Bocachica is just 22 years old and already has five years of pro experience, including two appearances onShoBox.

He is from the same gym as Mark Reyes, and you saw what I did to him, На July 23, it will be much of the same. Fighting on SHOWTIME has helped with my profile.

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

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

(Петък, Март 5, 2021 – Flint, MY) Women’s superstar Claressa Шийлдс furthered her claim as boxing’s “GWOAT” Friday night and became the unified WBC, WBO, IBF & WBA Super Junior Middleweight World Champion, by scoring a one-sided 10-round unanimous decision over Мари-Ив Дикер от Сейнт Юсташ, Quebec, Канада, in the 10-round main event of the historic all-women’s “СУПЕРЖЕНИ: ЩИТОВЕ VS. DICAIRE event at the Dort Financial Center and live on pay-per-view in Shields’ hometown of Flint, Мичиган.

Шийлдс (11-0, 2 Нокаута) 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. В края на деня, 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. Има 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 възраст. 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. имам 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. В края на деня, 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. Нека си го запази в реално. 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,“, каза Дикер. “Tonight, she was the best. Sometimes you win and sometimes you learn. Тази вечер, 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 загуби. I box to beat champions. Тази вечер, 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.

Шийлдс, who says her much-publicized MMA debut will likely be in Las Vegas in June, хвърли 409 punches in the fight and landed 128 включително и 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.”



В нощта на ко-основното събитие, 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. Понякога, 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.

Резултатите бяха 80-72 от всички трима съдии.

“I apologize for not getting a knockout. I swear next time I’ll come back and give it to you, кремък,” said Perkins, след мача. “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 включително и 40.9% от нейните мощни снимки. Harrison threw 273 shots, but only found a home for 21 от тях.

“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 Джейми "Чудото" Mitchell (6-0-2, 43 Нокаута) of Pacific Grove, Калифорния, looked impressive in battering and stopping more-experienced veteran Noemi “La Rebelde / No-No” Bosques (12-16-3, 2 Нокаута) 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, след мача. “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, и 40% (94/234) от общите й удари. Noemi Bosques only landed 24 на 153 щанци.

“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 Олимпийски бронзов медалист 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 (сега 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 паунда. 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.”

Esparza threw 352 punches in the fight, приземяване 126, включително и 26 body shots and 38.4% от нейните мощни снимки. Barnett threw 291 and landed 49. Резултати на съдиите бяха 60-54, 6-53 х 2.

On the free pre-show portion of the pay-per-view, middleweight Timur Kerefov stayed undefeated (11-0, 6 Нокаута) with a TKO 3 over Saint Petersburg, Florida veteran Manny Woods (сега 16-11-1, 6 Нокаута). Woods left eye couldn’t hold up under the onslaught of punches from the Russian former amateur star. The time was 1:06. Kerefov, Detroit via Shalushka, Russia and now training at Kronk Gym, хвърли 190 punches in the abbreviated encounter, приземяване 80, включително и 24 снимки на тялото. Woods threw 122 and landed just 17.

The highly regarded Lee made quick work of the previous two opponents he faced at Mohegan Sun Arena in 2020, scoring a highlight-reel first-round KO of Jimmy Williams onShoBox in October and a third-round stoppage of Dakota Linger in December. Lee has knocked out all but two of his professional opponents and owns 12 first-round knockouts.

Born in Sonora, Мексико, and raised in Denver, Colo., Lopez had a successful amateur career before turning professional in 2016. Той събрал рекордно аматьор на 50-5, winning gold at the 2010 Colorado State Silver Gloves Tournament and the Colorado State Golden Gloves Tournament in 2009 и 2015.

Ортис срещу. Hill – Eight-Round Lightweight Bout

The 27-year-old Ortiz has developed a cult following in his hometown region, fighting seven times in the greater Philadelphia area. Ortiz rallied off five straight wins in the “City of Brotherly Love” before making hisShoBoxdebut in September 2018, a majority decision victory over then-unbeaten Wesley Ferrer in Shawnee, Оклахома. Ortiz picked up two wins in 2019, including a unanimous decision over previously undefeated Philadelphian Jeremy Cuevas, but did not fight in 2020.

“The pandemic was a major setback for me and the careers of many other fighters, разбира се, but it kept me focused,” said Ortiz. “I stayed in the gym getting ready for when the opportunity came, and here it is. Hill is a tall, awkward fighter, но аз съм за предизвикателството. It doesn’t matter who is in front of me, Аз съм тук, за да се бори. This will be my second fight on SHOWTIME and I feel that, този път, I’ll be coming back stronger, both mentally and physically. The audience will see the best of me.”

New Orleans’ Jeremy Hill blends his unique size, accuracy and power in both hands inside the ring with showmanship and charisma outside of it. A successful amateur who rose all the way to the No. 4 класира САЩ. lightweight amateur, Hill won the Male Elite Champion at the Ringside World Championships in 2017 and turned professional in April 2018 after posting a 55-10 record in the unpaid ranks.

He also owns a unanimous decision over then-once-beaten Xavier Wilson in July, one of Hill’s four wins in 2020.

“I’m excited and thankful for the opportunity,” said Hill. “I’ve been working hard and grinding for a chance like this. I feel like I’m overdue for this type of fight and this kind of exposure, so I’m just ready to show everyone what I can do. I’m about to cut up on national TV.”

Padilla vs. Velasquez – Eight-Round Super Featherweight Bout

Padilla, 22, was born in Vieques, Puerto Rico, and currently lives and fights out of Berlin, N.J. The all-action, power-punching southpaw has stopped all but one of his professional challengers, including six opponents who failed to make it out of the first round. His last time out in January 2020, Padilla needed just 2:46 to stop Israel Suarez-Olmeda. 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.

“Първо и преди всичко, Искам да благодаря на Бог, 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. It has been 13 long years of working hard to show the world who Victor Padilla is and, за март 10, a new chapter will begin. Thomas Velasquez is a good fighter and this is a good matchup, but may the best man win.”

Velasquez, another Philadelphia native, направи своя професионален дебют в 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. Като аматьор, 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 could not be happier to have this opportunity to show the world what I can do,” said Velasquez. “It doesn’t matter who is standing in the opposite corner, I fight to provide a better life for my twin daughters. I look forward to putting on a spectacular performance on March 10 and leaving that ring with my unbeaten record intact.”

Международната боксова зала на известността Бари Томпкинс ще извика екшъна от ринга заедно с колегата от Залата на славата и историка на бокса Стив Фардъти и бившият световен шампион Раул Маркес, служещи като експертни анализатори.

Тренировъчният лагер вървеше отлично и ще бъда готов.”

Шишкин срещу. Агбеко - 10 рунд в супер средна категория

Преди това Шишкин се е бил два пътиShoBox печелейки впечатляващи победи над Ulises Sierra и DeAndre Ware. Стюард отправи ъгъла на Шишкин за битката със Сиера, но ангажиментът на Стюард към шампиона в тежка категория Тайсън Фюри не е позволил на двамата да тренират изключително заедно. Наскоро Шишкин работи с Л. Дж. Harrison. В последната си битка през август 20, той записа технически нокаут от деветия рунд на Оскар Риохас. В момента Шишкин е класиран №. 9 от WBC, Do Not. 11 от WBA и не по-. 12 от IBF в 168-паундова дивизия.

„Обучението върви чудесно и ние тренираме от известно време, така че просто удвояваме няколко неща и също така прецизираме борбата,- каза Агбеко. „Знам, че опонентът ми има богат аматьорски опит и стил, който отразява откъде е в Русия. Очаквам агресивен, но добре пресметнат боец. Ще спечеля тази битка, защото знам, че я искам повече и, като резултат, са положили повече усилия в подготовката. Моите превъзходни боксови умения, съчетани с желание и усилия, ще го направят. "

Преди тази победа, Гереро беше спрял трима поредни противници, включително нокаута за втори кръг на Дарнел Джайлс, Jr. през януари 2020. Известен аматьор, който спечели две национални титли за юноши, 22-годишният „Свинско месо“ е направил спаринг със световните шампиони Майки Гарсия и Брандън Риос в известната боксова академия Гарсия в Калифорния.

„Не знам нищо за опонента си, но гледах един негов клип и това е всичко, което трябваше да видя, за да разбера, че ще слезе,- каза Гереро. „Тази битка ще означава много за мен, защото ще покаже на света, че съм истинската сделка. Ще спечеля тази битка за кариерата и семейството си. "

26-годишната Монтоя, на Долна Калифорния, Мексико, ще дебютира в САЩ на февруари 17 и ще се бие извън родния си Мексико само за втори път. След отпадането на втория си професионален конкурс, Монтоя се събра, за да остане непобеден в следващия си 18 пристъпи преди пътуване до Русия през ноември 2019 да поеме непобедената перспектива Мохамедхуджа Якубов, където загуби решение от 12 кръга. Монтоя отскочи, за да отбележи втория рунд на TKO над Рейес Дейвид Лопес, последния му аут през октомври, and also owns an impressive victory over then-undefeated prospect Luis Alberto Lopez Vargas.

“Fighting in the U.S. and on SHOWTIME has always been my dream and I can’t wait for February 17 to show what I can do,- каза Монтоя. “I’ve never worked or trained as hard for a fight as I have for this one. I’ve seen my opponent and know he will bring the action just like his last fight. He will be tough, but I’m as ready for this as I’ve ever been.”

Kerefov vs. Espana – Eight-Round Middleweight Bout

Hailing from Shaluska, Русия, and now fighting out of Detroit, Mich., Kerefov will make hisShoBox debut on February 17.

В 2019, Kerefov turned in five impressive victories in Russia prior to his United States debut at the famed Kronk Gym in Detroit in August 2020, where he turned in a dominating unanimous decision victory over Calvin Metcalf in a middleweight bout.

“I am in the middle of a great training camp with trainer SugarHill Steward in Florida,” Kerefov said. “I look forward to showing the boxing fans that I am the new face of the middleweight division.”
