JARON ENNIS KNOCKS OUT PREVIOUSLY UNBEATEN ARMANDO ALVAREZ IN IMPRESSIVE TELEVISION DEBUT IN MAIN EVENT OF SHOBOX: AZ ÚJ GENERÁCIÓS PÉNTEK A SHOWTIME®-on

SLOAN, Iowa (Július 20, 2018) – Jaron Ennis continued his knock out streak in impressive fashion in his ShoBox: A New Generation debut on Friday night as the highly-touted prospect from Philadelphia scored a third-round TKO against previously unbeaten Armando Alvarez in an exciting night of fights from WinnaVegas Casino.

 

 

 

The 21-year-old Ennis (21-0, 19 KO), a former National Golden Gloves Champion, dominated the Key West fighter Alvarez (13-1, 7 KO) from the start, knocking him down four times in the third round before the fight was waved off with one second remaining in the round. The win was Ennis’s 11th consecutive knockout in a step-up fight for the welterweight prospect, who appeared composed in the ring from the outset.

 

 

 

I feel so great after this fight,” Ennis said. “I came out and did what we planned on, which was to just get out there and break him down. I wasn’t nervous and I had fun in the ring, I’ve been here before and I’m aware of everything. I’ve been in the ring my entire life and this is always what I’ve been doing.”

 

 

 

Ennis came out aggressive against a game Alvarez and started his attack by going directly to the body. Leszállt 46 percent of his power shots and led 35-8 in body connects during the short fight, which was originally scheduled for 10 forduló.

 

 

 

Ennis, who has never been past the sixth round, didn’t have plans on making this a long night, as he connected on a left cross to the jaw to put Alvarez on the canvas for the first time after 30 seconds had elapsed in the third round. A delayed-reaction left to the pit of the stomach sent Alvarez down for the second time and a three-punch combination capped by a hook was good for knockdown No. 3.

 

 

 

Referee Adam Pollack waved the fight off with Alvarez on his knees with just one second remaining in the third round following a right uppercut to the chin that ended the fight.

 

 

 

“Alvarez was just another opponent,- mondta Ennis, who out-landed Alvarez 23-3 in power punches in the final round. “He’s a great fighter but it feels like I’ve been here before. I’ve been fighting forever so it was nothing new. I’ve been doing this since I was a kid.”

 

 

 

Ennis’s two older brothers have both fought previously on ShoBox but came up with losses. “This was my coming out party and it really feels great to be the third Ennis to fight on ShoBox,” Ennis continued.

 

 

 

The previously undefeated Alvarez became the second fighter of the night to lose his undefeated record and the 176th overall in the history of the ShoBox sorozat, which this week celebrated 17 years since its inception in July of 2001.

 

 

 

He was faster than I expected and I didn’t execute my game plan,” Alvarez said. “I was supposed to pressure and I didn’t. He hit me with a surprising shot. He had enough power that I had to respect him. He was just the better man tonight.”

 

 

 

In middle fight of the tripleheader, undefeated Thomas Mattice overcame a knockdown in the second round to escape with a controversial eight-round split decision victory over Armenian Zhora Hamazaryan. Two judges scored the fight 76-75 in favor of Mattice with the third judge scoring it 77-74 in favor of Hamazaryan.

ShoBox commentator Steve Farhood had Hamazaryan (9-1, 6 KO) winning by a score of 78-73. “That was the worst decision I’ve seen in the history of ShoBox,"Farhood mondta.

 

 

 

Mattice (13-0, 10 KO) said he thought he did enough to win the fight, even though he was floored by a devastating right hook from Hamazaryan at 2:30 a második fordulóban.

 

 

 

“Tonight wasn’t my best performance,” Mattice said. “I felt like I Iost the few early rounds. [Hamazaryan] landed some clean shots and he’s a crazy competitor; he wasn’t giving me anything. Azt hiszem, a döntés az volt fair. I out-jabbed him and it may have looked like he was hitting me more but he wasn’t really touching me. The crowd was going crazy over him tapping my gloves. I outpointed him overall.”

 

 

 

Hamazaryan’s pressure enabled him to work his way inside and render Mattice’s normally powerful jab mostly ineffective, as he landed just 19 percent of his jabs. Besides scoring the fight’s only knockdown in round two,Hamazaryan controlled the seventh round and applied more pressure than Mattice in the final three rounds.

 

 

 

“I am extremely upset,” said Hamazaryan, who was fighting for the second time in the U.S. “I deserve a lot more being here in the United States. I worked many years for this opportunity, and for the judges to take it from me is just terrible. I know I won. I’m always a champion. I have already talked to my team and we are going to protest this fight to the right outcome and we will give him a rematch.

 

 

 

Hozzátette: “I knocked him down, hurt him several more times and dominated the fight. And how could they just take this from me.”

 

 

 

A televízió nyitójában, young super lightweight prospects Montana Love (11-0-1, 5 KO) of Cleveland and Kenneth Sims Jr. (12-1-1, 4 KO) of Chicago fought to an eight-round split draw. A bírók gólt szereztek a harcban 77-75 for Love, 77-75 for Sims and 76-76.

 

 

 

The action-packed fight was fought in flurries as both fighters came out swinging. Sims was the busier and more accurate fighter, throwing a total of 638 punches and connecting on 211 (33 százalék) while Love threw 529 punches and connected on 159 (30 százalék).

 

 

 

“I worked well in the beginning even though I was a little rusty,” said Sims, 24, who had not fought in more than a year because of right elbow surgery. “I slacked off in the middle rounds, and picked it up in the last three. I thought I won the fight, but I can’t complain. I haven’t fought in a year and I feel like I am a stronger and a better fighter than I was then.”

 

 

 

In his second appearance on the series, the 23-year-old Love came alive in the middle rounds, highlighted by a blistering right hook midway through the fifth round that knocked out Sims’s mouthpiece.

 

 

 

“Today wasn’t my best day and I just wasn’t able to get in to a groove,” said Love, who fought against Sims when the two were teenagers in the amateurs. “I definitely didn’t fight my best. I felt good in the third and fourth rounds.

 

 

 

 

“We definitely want a rematch,” Love continued. “Today was an off day but we hundred percent want a rematch and want to fight again, wherever and whenever.”

 

 

 

Friday’s tripleheader will replay on Monday, Július 23 at 10 p.m. ET/PT on SHOWTIME EXTREME and will be available on SHOWTIME ANYTIME® and SHOWTIME on DEMAND®.

 

 

 

Barry Tompkins called the action from ringside with boxing historian Steve Farhood and former world champion Raul Marquez serving as expert analysts. Az executive producer volt Gordon Hall-Richard Gaughan termelő és Rick Phillips irányítja.

JARON ENNIS vs. ARMANDO ALVAREZ – 10-Round Welterweight Bout

Ennis will debut on ShoBox following a statement second round knockout of former junior welterweight contender Mike Arnaoutis earlier this month, övé 10th consecutive KO victory. The Philadelphia native had a standout amateur career, notching an impressive record of 58-3 and winning the 2015 National Golden Gloves tournament. Ennis, aki nem volt rangsorolva. 1 as an amateur at 141 font, narrowly missed the opportunity to represent the U.S. a 2016 Olympics after losing a box-off to Gary Antuanne Russell at the Olympic Trials.

 

 

 

“This is the opportunity I have been waiting for,” Ennis said. “I can’t wait to show the world my talent.”

 

 

 

Csak 20 éves, Ennis currently trains under his father Derek “Bozy” Ennis Sr., who also trained his other sons Derek Jr. and Farah. The 5-foot-10 Ennis will be the third brother to appear on ShoBox; Derek Jr. appeared on the series in 2007, and Farah faced Badou Jack on the series in 2013.

 

 

 

“A win on this platform would mean everything,” Ennis continued. “From here on out, I want to fight only the big names in the division. I feel grateful for this opportunity to show the world my talents and skills. It’s great to follow in my brother’s footsteps, and I am ready to take the Ennis last name to the next level.”

 

 

 

The 28-year-old Alvarez turned professional in 2014 and has gradually increased his level of opposition. Alvarez, who now lives in Key West, compiled a 26-4 amateur record and won the Florida State Championship in 2013. His headlining fight with Ennis will be his second fight of 2018 and by far his toughest test to date.

 

 

 

“This is the biggest opportunity I have ever received,” Alvarez said. “This is it. It’s on. Ennis is a great young fighter, but I think he has stepped out of his league. He is just a kid. The world will find out who Armando Alvarez is on July 20.”

 

THOMAS MATTICE vs. ZHORA HAMAZARYAN – Eight-Round Lightweight Bout

A 27-year-old from Cleveland, Mattice turned pro in 2014 and had an amateur record of 72-18. He was a three-time Ohio State Golden Gloves Champion and bronze medal winner in the USA National Tournament in 2014.

 

 

 

Mattice will be making his second ShoBox appearance following a strong debut Feb. 2, when the undefeated lightweight rallied from behind to score a seventh round TKO of ShoBox veteran Rolando Chinea. Mattice has recorded five straight KOs and nine overall in 11 szakmai harcol.

 

 

 

“I am excited for the opportunity to showcase my talent again on ShoBox," Mattice said. “I’m going to go out there and do what I did before. I’m going to get a win, hopefully in knockout fashion. Ez a fickó (Hamazaryan) doesn’t know what he’s getting himself into.”

 

 

 

Undefeated lightweight prospect Hamazaryan, who signed with Banner Promotions and Thompson Boxing in February, is originally from Armenia but fights out of Los Angeles. Part of a long line of Armenian fighters who have fought in the U.S., Hamazaryan won his U.S. debut on Feb. 16, when he scored a unanimous decision win over the previously unbeaten Sergio Ramirez.

“I am happy that I got the victory and finally made my US debut,” said Khegai. “I thank Salita Promotions and Showtime for the opportunity. US fans saw a glimpse of my potential and I got a lot more to show. I look forward to fighting the best in the world and becoming a world champion in the near future.”

 

 

 

Salita says he’ll have his newest “one to watch” back in action quickly.

 

 

 

“Arnold is a ‘made for TV’ fighter and I’m looking forward to moving him quickly. He was able to dominate a world-class opponent with relative ease and that’s just the beginning for him. He’s going to be a real force in the super bantamweight division and we will have him back for the fans’ enjoyment very soon.”

PHILADELPHIA (Május 12, 2018) – A Blue chip könnyűsúlyú esélyese, Devin Haney pályafutása legkeményebb próbáján tette fel ezt az alkalmat, a veterán Mason Menard legyőzése kilencedik körös TKO-val a főversenyben ShoBox: A New Generation Péntek a SHOWTIME műsorán, órától 2300 Arena Philadelphiában.

Haney (20-0, 13 KO) nagyra becsült jelöltként szállt be a küzdelembe, akit soha nem teszteltek. Első próbája előtt állt pénteken elleni 10 menetes összecsapáson ShoBox veterán Menard (33-3, 24 KO).

Haney a nyitó harangtól átvette a küzdelem irányítását, és soha nem adta fel. A 19 éves férfi egy domináns ütéssel kívülről vette le Menardot, és oldalirányú mozgást alkalmazott, hogy elkerülje az ütést.. Menard nem tudott értelmes ütéseket mérni, és Haney következetes mozgásához és atletikusságához képest lomhának tűnt..

Kilenc uralmi kör után, Menard szöglete eleget látott, és a kört követően megállította a küzdelmet. Haney remekül teljesítette pályafutása legkeményebb próbáját, egyszer sem engedte, hogy Menard átvegye a harc irányítását.

„Az volt a terv, hogy bemegyek oda, és ledolgozom a szúrást,”Haney mondta. „Ha jönne a kiütés, Elvinném, de csak most mentem be, beültem egy bokszklinikára, és megmutattam a világnak, hogy ki tudok telni 10 forduló.

„Úgy érzem magam, mintha egy előadást adtam volna elő. Nyugodt voltam és tettem a dolgomat. Biztosan én vagyok a következő szupersztár. Innentől kezdve csak nagyobb és jobb dolgok vannak. nagyon keményen dolgozom. Bementem, és jó teljesítményt nyújtottam egy srác ellen, akiről azt mondták, hogy kiüthet, vagy megsérthet.”

A harcot követően, egy legyőzött Menard tisztelte Haney teljesítményét.

„Soha nem bántott. A lehető legjobb lövésekkel fogott el, és soha nem bántott meg. De a gyerek biztosan tud harcolni,– ismerte el Menard.

A 10 körös co-szolgáltatás, szuperbantamsúlyú esélyes Joshua „Don’t Blink” Greer (17-1-1, 9 KO) megszerezte a harmadikat ShoBox kiütéses a baltimore-i születésű Glenn Dezurn ellen (9-1-2, 6 KO).

A harc kezdettől fogva robbanásszerű volt, mindkét harcossal tolta a tempót. Greer kihasználta Dezurn magas őrségét, hogy megdolgoztassa a testet, miközben Dezurn előrenyomult, hogy belülről elkapja Greert. Greer a harmadik körben kezdett dominálni, amikor egy nagy jobb kéz megsértette Dezurnt a hátralévő két percben.

„Tudtam, hogy keményen fog jönni, ezért az edzőterembe helyeztem a munkát, hogy megbizonyosodjak arról, hogy készen állok,– mondta Greer. "Örülök, hogy minden kifizetődött."

Greer ismét megsebesítette Dezurnt az ötödik menetben egy egyenes balbal, és végül a kötelekhez kötötte egy sor ütéssel, amitől Dezurn edzője, Barry Hunter majdnem megállította a harcot.. A kör után, Hunter figyelmeztette Dezurnt, hogy leállítja a harcot, ha Dezurn nem harcol vissza.

Annak ellenére, hogy majdnem leesett az ötödikben, Dezurn még három kört túlélt. A sérült és kimerült Dezurn semmit sem tudott ütései mögé tenni, és pályafutása során először a nyolcadik menetben találta el a vásznat, mielőtt Benjy Esteves játékvezető leállította a küzdelmet. 1:47 többi.

„Néhány jó lövéssel elkaptak, de gyorsan felépültem és még mindig harcban voltam,– mondta Dezurn. „Sok szívem van, ami ajándék és átok számomra.”

Egy magabiztos Greer elégedett volt a küzdelem után nyújtott teljesítményével.

„Nem lepődtem meg, hogy ki tudtam ütni,– mondta Greer. – Tudtam, hogy megtörhetem az akaratát.

Nyolc fordulós kiemelt attrakcióban, félnehézsúlyú esélyes Charles Foster (16-0, 8 KO) veretlen maradt, egyhangú döntéssel győzött Alvin Varmall Jr. ellen. (15-0-2, 12 KO), szerzett 77-75, 78-74, 79-73.

Foster kezdettől fogva uralta a küzdelmet, irányítva a selejtes Varmall, aki lett a 174th harcos, hogy elszenvedje első veszteségét ShoBox. Varmall bátor kísérletet tett a bejutásra a korai fordulókban, de egy fegyelmezettebb Foster kordában tartotta, Vermall botladozva és odabent megkötözve.

„Az én tapasztalatom volt a különbség,– mondta Foster. „Egyetlen ütést hajtott végre, én pedig ragaszkodtam a játéktervemhez – a szúrás mögé ragadva, megdolgoztatja a testet."

Foster ólom bal kezével meghintette Varmallt, eléggé megcímkézve ellenfelét ahhoz, hogy letörje és végül kifárassza. Varmall lőtt néhány nyilatkozatot, de nem tudta megbántani Fostert és a későbbi körökben, ütéseiből hiányzott az erő.

„Amikor bejött, nem tudott bántani,– mondta Foster. – Én irányítottam az egész harcot.

A négymeccses tévéadás nyitómérkőzésén, A szupersúlyú Arnold Khegai a veterán Adam Lopez felett egyhangú döntéssel megőrizte hibátlan rekordját, szerzett 77-74, 77-74, 78-73.

Így ő az Egyesült Államokon kívül. bemutatkozás, az irányított Khegai (12-0-1, 8 KO) kezdettől fogva nyomta az akciót. Khegai kidolgozta a szúrást, és mozgékony maradt, kihasználva egy ingatag Lopezt (16-2-3, 8 KO) tökéletesen időzített ellenütéssel 30 másodperc van hátra a második körből. Khegai továbbra is elfoglalt maradt a korai körökben a következetes ellenütésekkel, de pontlevonást szerzett Lopez tarkóba ütéséért a hatodik körből hátralévő másodpercekkel.

„Ez volt az első csatám az Egyesült Államokban. és valami különlegeset akartam mutatni,– mondta Khegai. „Mindenki a kiütésre várt, de meg akartam mutatni a boksztudásaimat. A küzdelem közepén mehettem volna a KO-ért, de be akartam bizonyítani, hogy tudok bokszolni.”

Annak ellenére, hogy a későbbi körökben a termelékenység enyhén visszaesett, az ukrán hatékony maradt, leszállás 31 testlövésekhez képest csak 15 Lopeztől.

Lopez, meglepte Khegai harci stílusa, csalódott volt a rekordot felállító hetedikben nyújtott teljesítménye miatt ShoBox megjelenés.

„Arra számítottam, hogy piszkos harcos lesz, de ez valahogy kidobott a játékból. A játékvezető folyamatosan azt mondta nekem, hogy „ne viszonozzam”., ne viszonozd.'

"Nem igazán tudtam elérni a kemény lövéseimet. Leszálltam páran,– mondta Lopez. „A negyedik vagy az ötödik szakaszban elkábítottam egy jobb felsővel. Kicsit megrázott, de jó harcos. Kiszállt belőle."
