VERONA, N.Y.. – June 10, 2022 - Undefeated heavyweight knockout artistBakhodir Jalolovtook his time on Friday night, but ultimately closed the show in dramatic fashion with an eighth-round knockout overJack Mulowayidi acara utama dariSHOBOX: Generasi Barutelecast at Turning Stone Resort Casino in Verona, N.Y.. that helped kick off the International Boxing Hall of Fame Induction Weekend in nearby Canastota, N.Y..

Known as “Big Uzbek”, the 6-foot-7 Jalolov, a two-time Olympian and 2020 Gold Medalist from Uzbekistan, improved to a perfect 11-0 dengan 11 KOs when he landed a huge left hand that sent Mulowayi (11-3-1, 7 Biaya) flat on his back in the eighth and final round.

“I’m feeling really good about the performance,” said the 27-year-old Jalolov. “The opponent was at a really good level and a great fighter. He was a really tough, durable guy. I landed some big shots on him and he can take a punch.”

In front of a who’s who of boxing royalty including the likes of Andre Ward, Shane Mosley, Antonio Tarver and Terence Crawford, Jalolov put an exclamation mark on an exciting night of boxing during an historic weekend of Hall of Fame inductions which will include the last three classes of inductees during Sunday’s ceremony.

Jalolov was dominant throughout the entire fight, with the only question being whether or not he would continue his knockout streak. It looked likely in both the third and fifth rounds, as Jalolov wobbled Mulowayi but the game Belgium showed heart in making it out of both rounds unscathed. In the sixth round, Mulowayi was dropped for just the second time in his career by a left cross as the bell sounded. He rose to his feet and beat the count, but was knocked down for good with yet another signature left hand at 1:20 dari babak final.

“I thought I was going to stop him at the end of the sixth round when I dropped him, but the referee let him continue and the round was over,” said Jalolov, who was deducted a point for holding in the fourth round. “I thought that was the time. But I had to wait until the final round. I’m happy that I got the stoppage. I feel like I hurt him three or four times.”

Jalolov went past the fifth round for the first time in his career, pendaratan 47 percent of his power punches and out-landing Mulowayi 99-17 in total punches.

Dalam acara co-main, undefeated Dominican heavyweight prospectGeorge Arias(18-0, 7 Biaya) won a tactical duel over previously unbeatenAlante Green(10-1-1, 7 Biaya) via split-decision with scores of 78-74, 77-75 in favor of Arias and 77-75 Green.

“I definitely learned more than anything from this fight so I give my performance a C-plus or a B-minus because this is the type of fight that makes me go back to the gym hungrier and knowing there’s a lot more to do,” said Arias, who now lives and trains out of the Bronx. “But we were blessed this time because should he have been a little bit stronger, things could have been more disastrous.”

Arias jumped out to a commanding lead in the first half of the fight, executing the game plan by outboxing Green and landing the cleaner, harder punches. Cleveland’s Green grew into the fight in the later rounds, but it was too little too late and Arias was able to do enough to hold off the late rally.

It was a difficult fight to score, as all three judges agreed on just two out of the eight rounds but the punch stats backed up the judges’ decision as Arias out-landed Green 81-58. Green became the 213th fighter to have his undefeated record spoiled onSHOBOX.

“Everyone who I face always trains for me a thousand percent better,” continued Arias. “He was real complete. He didn’t really necessarily have any weakness that I could exploit. The reaction time he had was really good and he had good inner footwork where it took me a little too long to get into a zone because every strategy I used he seemed to have a good reaction.”

Di pembuka siaran, prospek ringan yang tak terkalahkanChann Thonson (11-0, 8 Biaya) put on a boxing display, bruising, battering and eventually breaking down the previously undefeatedTyler Tomlin (13-1, 9 Biaya) en route to a fifth-round TKO. Referee Mark Nelson stopped the action 1:01 ke putaran.

“I knew if I stayed in the pocket with him that the shots I was going to give him would put him away,” said Canada’s Thonson, who is trained by former Olympic bronze medalist and light heavyweight contender Chris Johnson. “Surprisingly, he was a little tougher than I thought because when I hit him hard, he wasn’t taking a step back. So eventually I knew that would be his own demise and it was just a matter of time.”

Thonson, who was fighting for the fourth time in 2022, controlled the tempo and distance from the opening bell and looked like the more relaxed and experienced fighter. He used his jab and straight right hand to cause both swelling around Tomlin’s left eye and serious cause for concern in Tomlin’s corner. Prior to the start of the third round, Tomlin’s father and trainer Darryl urged his son to pick up the pace.

Namun Begitu, it was Thonson who stepped on the gas even more. Late in the third round, Thonson landed a barrage of punches that hurt Tomlin and left his face a bloody mess. The sound of the bell temporarily saved Tomlin but his night would come to an end in the fifth round. Unable to avoid the constant punishment that Thonson was dishing out, the action was stopped after the ringside physician assessed Tomlin.

Secara Menyeluruh, Thonson landed 44 percent of his power punches and out-landed Tomlin 102-39 in total punches.

"Saya merasa baik, I feel like I was in the fight. I just got caught with two overhand rights and I’m pretty sure one of them either broke or fractured my nose,” said the 22-year-old Tomlin. “It was in the second or third round when I got caught. I felt and it threw off the game plan as far as what I was trying to do. I got a little more hesitant than I should have. I just can’t get hit by those overhand rights. SHOWTIME, that’s what they do, they put good fighters against good fighters. I felt like I was going to come out on top but we have to go back and watch film and see what comes next.”

(Holmes scores unanimous decision, klikDISINI)

“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 persen pukulan kekuasaannya. A total of 280 of the combined 323 total punches landed were power punches.

"Dia adalah orang yang lebih baik malam ini,” 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 hari hari, 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.”

Dalam acara co-main, heavy-hitting lightweightEdwin De Los Santos (14-1, 13 Biaya) scored a devastating second-round knockout againstLuis Acosta (12-1, 11 Biaya), who suffered the first loss of his career.Acosta became the 211th fighter to have his undefeated streak snapped in the 21-year history of the prospect series.

“One-hitter quitter for De Los Santos!"SHOBOX analisBrian Campbellsaid 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 Tompkins.

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

"Saya kembali,” 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. Ini adalah awal baru bagi saya. 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.”

Di pembuka siaran, 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.

(Marquez scores unanimous decision, klikDISINI)

“I felt great,” said Marquez. “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, Mantan juara duniaRaul Marquez, 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 persen dari total pukulan (85 untuk 280) compared to Morales at 21 persen (42 untuk 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, durable guy, 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. Secara Menyeluruh, 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, Pa. “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, Marcus Browne, Terrell Gausha, Errol Spence Jr., Rau’Shee Warren and Gary Russell, Jr.

JAMAINE ORTIZ DAZZLES IN STANDOUT PERFORMANCE AGAINST TOUGH NAHIR ALBRIGHT IN MAIN EVENT OF SHOBOX: THE NEW GENERATION

ORLANDO, Fla. - Februari 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: Generasi Baru as part of an action-packed doubleheader onSHOWTIME Friday night at the Caribe Royale Resort.

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

Whether he was walking Albright (14-2, 7 Biaya) down or punching on the move, Ortiz produced a dominant and flashy performance over 10 putaran, wowing a crowd that included former light heavyweight championAntonio Tarver and San Francisco 49ers All-Pro offensive linemanTrent Williams. KlikDISINI 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. Dari titik pada, 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.”

Ortiz, of Worcester, Mass., mendarat 48% (103 dari 216) pukulan kekuasaannya, dibandingkan dengan 41% for Albright (88 dari 216), but it was his body punching that produced the biggest numerical disparity. Ortiz out-landed Albright 42 untuk 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 Biaya) 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. Setelah itu, 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.

Di pembuka siaran, Paul Kroll danMarquis 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. KlikDISINI 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 untuk 71 and out-landing him 109 untuk 84 in total punches.

Taylor (12-1-2, 1 KO) staggered Kroll (9-0-1, 6 Biaya) 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 DIRI KITA. Olympic Trials Tinju, 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.”

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 knew he would slow down and when he did, I began to land my shots and had success with my pressure.”

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 Biaya) will face California’s 24-year-old Saul Sanchez (16-1, 9 Biaya).

The event will be Salita Promotions’ second attempt to stage a fight at the outdoor boxing hotbed. Pada bulan Agustus 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,Kata Salita. “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 pon, 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 sebelum berbalik profesional dalam 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 dan 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, yang berada di peringkat No. 8 by the WBA at 118 pon, is riding a four-fight winning streak. Terakhir kali dia keluar, Sanchez made quick work of Frank Gonzalez, knocking him down three times en route to a first-round stoppage. The Pacoima, Kalif. 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,” said Sanchez. “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 kali, 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. Saya tidak tahu banyak tentang lawan saya, but I will win this fight because I’m smarter. Di atas ring, I’m a boxer and a thinker, but I also have heavy punches. Dengan kemenangan ini, 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


Berjuang dari Houston, 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. Seorang amatir terkenal yang memenangkan dua gelar nasional junior, 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,” kata 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.”


Peringkat No. 9 by the WBA at 130 pon, 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.”

CLARESSA SHIELDS MENGUASAI MARIE-EVE DICAIRE, MEMBUAT SEJARAH SEBAGAI PETINJU PERTAMA YANG MENJADI JUARA TAK TERDUGA DI DIVISI BERAT KEDUA

BINTANG TAK TERKALAHKAN MENGUTIP JUNI DI LAS VEGAS UNTUK DEBUT MMA nya; MENYEBUT KATIE TAYLOR DAN SAVANNAH MARSHALL DALAM WAWANCARA PASCA-FIGHT

(Hari Jumat, Bulan Maret 5, 2021 – Flint, MY) Superstar wanita Claressa Shields melanjutkan klaimnya sebagai "GWOAT" tinju pada Jumat malam dan menjadi WBC yang bersatu, WBO, IBF & Juara Dunia Kelas Menengah Super Junior WBA, dengan mencetak keputusan bulat 10 ronde satu sisi atas Marie-Eve Dicaire dari St-Eustache, Quebec, Kanada, dalam acara utama 10 putaran dari all-women bersejarah "WANITA SUPER: PERISAI VS. DICARE acara di Dort Financial Center dan langsung bayar per tayang di kampung halaman Shields di Flint, Michigan.

Shields (11-0, 2 Biaya) juga menjadi petinju pertama di era empat sabuk yang menjadi juara dunia yang tak terbantahkan dalam dua divisi berat berdasarkan kemenangan shutout-nya (100-90 oleh ketiga juri) atas sekarang mantan juara Dicaire (17-1).

Tidak seperti biasanya, Shields yang berusia 25 tahun berubah menjadi counterpuncher di awal pertarungan ini, untuk mengimbangi upaya Dicaire untuk memantul masuk dan keluar dari jangkauan. Mengandalkan refleksnya untuk menghukum segala upaya agresi oleh Dicaire, Shields menutup pemain Kanada itu dan kemudian kembali ke serangan biasa ke depan dalam pertarungan.

Dicaire mendaratkan kidal berkualitas yang tersisa di Shields di ronde keempat, mungkin satu-satunya pukulan signifikan dari pertarungan, dan Shields mengabaikannya tanpa efek.

Saya tidak bisa marah tentang penampilan saya,” kata Shields setelah pertarungan. “Dia terus menyikut dan menandukku. Saya mencoba untuk KO dan saya hampir mendapatkannya beberapa kali, tapi kami punya waktu dua menit dan wasit tidak menghentikannya ketika dia memegang saya dan menyikut saya. Saya senang tetapi saya masih menginginkan KO. Saya hanya tidak punya cukup waktu. Pada akhir hari, Saya adalah juara baru yang tak terbantahkan di 154 dan petinju pertama yang menjadi juara tak terbantahkan dua kali.”

Shields mengatakan dia senang telah menyelesaikan bagian sejarah terbarunya di depan keluarga dan teman-temannya di Flint, bahkan jika pandemi berarti lebih sedikit penggemar yang hadir.

“Dengan Covid, kami tidak dapat memiliki kapasitas penuh. Ada 300 di sini dan itulah kapasitas hari ini, jadi kita punya rumah penuh. Kami tidak dapat memiliki kapasitas penuh, tapi aku tahu jika kita bisa, kami akan memilikinya 6000 orang di sini. Saya senang bisa melakukannya di sini (di Flint). Saya mulai bertinju di Berston Fieldhouse di 11 tua tahun. Tidak pernah dalam sejuta tahun saya pikir saya akan berada di bayar-per-tayang dan berjuang untuk gelar yang tak terbantahkan dan menjadi salah satu bintang terbesar dalam tinju. Saya hanya ingin memenangkan medali Emas Olimpiade. Tuhan telah memberi saya dua medali Olimpiade. Saya sudah 12 sabuk juara sekarang. Rasanya tidak nyata untuk mengatakan tak terbantahkan dua kali.”

Ketika ditanya tentang dua saingannya yang tersisa di tinju, sesama superstar Katie Taylor dari Irlandia dan penakluk satu kali di amatir, Savannah Marshall dari Inggris, Perisai yang dipenuhi dengan kepercayaan diri.

“Katie Taylor tidak perlu khawatir. 147 pound adalah. Mereka harus membayar saya banyak untuk kehilangan pantat saya dan pergi ke 147. Pada akhir hari, Aku seorang wanita. Saya tidak memiliki payudara besar, tapi aku punya pantat yang bagus, jadi datanglah dengan adonan itu dan saya akan berada di sana. Setidaknya satu juta dan saya akan berada di sana.

“Savannah Marshall tidak bisa bercinta denganku. Mari kita tetap nyata. Savannah Marshall, Anda memenangkan keputusan yang beruntung ketika kami masih kecil. Juga London menjadi tuan rumah Olimpiade. Jika Anda ingin menyombongkan diri tentang mengalahkan saya 14 poin ke 8… ayo sekarang. Dan kemudian saya menjadi juara dunia di tiga divisi berbeda dan dia bangkrut. Dia tahu dia tidak bisa dan tidak akan pernah bisa bercinta denganku. Dia bisa datang ke Amerika. Saya akan pergi ke Inggris. Kita bisa pergi ke Meksiko. Kita bisa pergi kemana saja, dan aku akan bercinta dengannya. Dia tahu itu. Dia takut padaku. Savannah Marshall bisa mendapatkannya. Beritahu Eddie Hearn, dia datang 250K. Katakan padanya untuk datang dengan 500K… 750K jika dia ingin aku pergi ke Inggris dan merokok gadisnya. Bayar aku.”

Dicaire melanjutkan keanggunannya dalam interogasi pasca-pertarungan dan berjanji untuk tidak membiarkan kekalahan itu mengurangi masa depannya dalam olahraga..

“Saya pikir Claressa melakukan pekerjaan dengan baik malam ini,”Kata Dicaire. "Malam ini, dia yang terbaik. Terkadang Anda menang dan terkadang Anda belajar. Malam Ini, aku telah belajar. Saya pikir ini hanya akan membuat saya tumbuh lebih kuat. Saya tidak bertinju untuk melindungi catatan saya atau menyimpan catatan saya di 0 kerugian. Saya bertinju untuk mengalahkan juara. Malam Ini, Saya memiliki kesempatan untuk melawan juara sejati. Dia menang kali ini tetapi mengandalkan saya untuk kembali ke gym dan bekerja keras dan menjadi juara dunia lagi pasti.

Shields, yang mengatakan debut MMA-nya yang banyak dipublikasikan kemungkinan akan diadakan di Las Vegas pada bulan Juni, melempar 409 pukulan dalam pertarungan dan mendarat 128 termasuk di dalamnya 34.9% dari pukulan kekuatannya. Dicaire melempar 263 pukulan sebagai balasannya tetapi mendarat dengan adil 31.

“Flint Michigan mendapat petinju paling buruk di dunia!” kata Shields kepada para penggemarnya. “Kami dua kali tak terbantahkan. Pacquiao siapa?? Canelo siapa?? Ketika orang lain melakukan apa yang saya lakukan, beri tahu saya.”



Dalam acara co-utama malam itu, Houston tak terkalahkan Danielle Perkins (3-0, 1 KO) menunjukkan peningkatan yang nyata dan memiliki waktu yang jauh lebih mudah dalam pertandingan ulangnya melawan Georgia Monica “Lay Em Down” Harrison (2-2, 1 KO), mencetak keputusan bulat delapan ronde yang dominan saat mengambil Kejuaraan Kelas Berat Perak WBC dalam prosesnya.

Mantan juara dunia amatir Perkins menggunakan setiap bagian dari atletisnya yang superior, 6' tinggi dan jangkauan 72-inci untuk bergerak di sekitar ring dan menjaga 5' 10" Harrison di teluk dengan pukulan kanan kidal yang menghukum dan diet yang stabil dari tangan kiri yang kuat ke kepala dan tubuh. Kadang-kadang, Wasit Michael Griffin tampaknya mempertimbangkan penghentian, tetapi Harrison yang tahan lama terus maju dan berayun ke pagar selama delapan putaran, meskipun kekuatan senjata datang padanya.

Skor yang 80-72 dari ketiga hakim.

“Saya minta maaf karena tidak mendapatkan KO. Saya bersumpah lain kali saya akan kembali dan memberikannya kepada Anda, Batu api,” kata Perkins, pasca-pertarungan. “Monika membuat beberapa penyesuaian kali ini. Saya memukulnya dengan beberapa palu kuat dan gadis itu tetap berdiri, jadi pujian untuknya.”

Perkins melempar 353 pukulan dalam pertarungan dan mendarat 121 termasuk di dalamnya 40.9% dari tembakan kekuatannya. Harrison melempar 273 tembakan, tetapi hanya menemukan rumah untuk 21 dari mereka.

“Saya ingin menjadi juara dunia kelas berat wanita yang tak terbantahkan,” lanjut Perkins. "Aku ingin menjadi yang terbaik yang pernah kamu lihat."

Kelas bantam tak terkalahkan Jamie "Keajaiban" Mitchell (6-0-2, 43 Biaya) dari Pacific Grove, California, tampak mengesankan dalam memukul dan menghentikan veteran yang lebih berpengalaman Noemi "La Rebelde / Tidak-Tidak ”Hutan (12-16-3, 2 Biaya) dalam lima putaran satu sisi.

Dengan hukuman dua tangan dari Mitchell yang terus meningkat setiap putaran yang lewat, Wasit Gerard White memutuskan bahwa Bosques yang tersandung dan mundur sudah cukup dan dengan senang hati melambaikan pertarungan di 1:49 dari yang kelima.

“Aku baru saja dikategorikan keluar. Saya melakukan apa pun yang sesuai saat ini,” kata Mitchell, pasca-pertarungan. “Begitulah cara saya mendapatkan KO. Terima kasih kepada pelatih saya dan terima kasih kepada Claressa Shields karena telah menempatkan saya di kartu ini. Ini adalah momen yang tak terlupakan bagi wanita.”

Sebelum mencetak technical knockout, Mitchell mendarat 48% (80/167) dari pukulan kekuatannya, dan 40% (94/234) dari total pukulannya. Noemi Bosques hanya mendarat 24 dari 153 pukulan.

“Saya suka memilih diri sendiri untuk melakukan yang lebih baik,” kata Mitchell tentang penampilannya. “Ada hal-hal tertentu yang ingin saya lakukan, tapi mereka tidak menyebut gadis ini penjaga gerbang tanpa alasan. Saya berharap saya mengeluarkannya dari sana lebih cepat dan lebih tajam dengan jab saya. Dia agak rumit.”

Dalam pertarungan pembukaan siaran, 2012 Peraih medali perunggu Olimpiade Marlen esparza(9-1, 1 KO) tetap sibuk menjelang tantangan yang dijadwalkan dari Juara Kelas Terbang WBC Ibeth Zamora pada bulan April dengan keputusan bulat enam ronde yang dominan atas KanadaShelly Barnett (saat ini 4-4-2, 2 KO).

Barnett mencoba menjadi agresif, tetapi keterampilan Esparza memungkinkannya untuk menembak lawannya yang lebih besar, hampir sesuka hati, terutama saat pertarungan berlangsung. “Kami tahu dia tangguh dan lebih besar,” kata Esparza. “Saya menginginkan seseorang yang lebih berat karena saya tidak pernah bertarung di atas 112 lbs. dan saya pikir saya menanganinya dengan baik. Saya senang dengan cara semuanya dimainkan. Saya senang menjadi bagian dari acara ini dan bisa bekerja sama dengan Claressa lagi.”

Esparza melempar 352 pukulan dalam pertarungan, pendaratan 126, termasuk di dalamnya 26 tembakan tubuh dan 38.4% dari tembakan kekuatannya. Barnett melempar 291 dan mendarat 49. Skor hakim 'yang 60-54, 6-53 x 2.
