MIAMI, Okla. (Março 26, 2016) – On a night of knockouts, unbeaten super lightweight Regis "Rougarou" PROGRAMAS (17-0, 14 KOs), de Houston, scored his third consecutive dominant victory on ShoBox: A Nova Geração, knocking out Mexico’s Aaron Herrera (21-5-1, 12 KOs) em 2:17 do primeiro turno Sexta-feira no evento principal emALTURA DE COMEÇAR de Buffalo Run Casino em Miami, Okla.

In scheduled eight-round bouts that all ended early, Ivan "The Beast" Baranchyk (10-0, 9 KOs), de Brooklyn, N.I., registered a 21-second, nocaute no primeiro round sobre Nick Givhan (16-1-1, 10 KOs), de Kalamazoo, Mich., in a super lightweight scrap, Ukrainian welterweight Ivan "O Volk" Golub (16-0, 10 KOs, 5-0 no World Series of Boxing), de Brooklyn, N.I., scored a sixth-round TKO over Marlon Aguas (9-1, 6 KOs), de Quito, Equador, e Justin DeLoach (14-1, 8 KOs), of Augusta, Ga., who is trained by former world champion Paul Williams, registered a fourth-round knockout over undefeated super welterweight and local favorite Dillon “White Lightning” Cook (16-1, 6 KOs).

All but Prograis and Baranchyk were making their ShoBox estréias. Cozinheiro, Aguas and Givhan became the 143rd, 144^th e 145^th boxers to suffer their first pro loss on the prospect developmental series.

“I can’t remember em 15 anos of working ShoBox a show with such emphatic knockouts – and two of them being spectacular knockout of the year candidates,'', Disse ShoBox analista especialista Steve Farhood.

PROGRAMAS, um 5-foot-9, 27-year-old originally from New Orleans, was fighting in his second consecutive ShoBox main event and second scheduled 10-rounder. The aggressive-minded southpaw pounded Herrera’s body from the opening bell; five of his six power punches were targeted to the Mexican’s midsection. A left hook to the body downed Herrera, who crumpled to the canvas and wasn’t able to beat the count.

“I was prepared to go 10 voltas completas, the last thing I was expecting was a first-round knockout,’’ said Prograis, who was making his 2016 estréia. “I’m making hard fights look easy but they’re really not. It’s all the daily work in the gym all day every day that is paying off for me. Tonight was fun. I’m very satisfied.

“I want all the fighters in my division to know one thing: I’m coming after all of you.’’

“He just got me with a great shot, it was simple as that,’’ said Herrera, who making his second start in the United States. “There’s really not that much that I can say.’’

The highly regarded Baranchyk – making his second eight-round start and second in a row on ShoBox – knocked out Givhan with a huge left hand with the first power punch of the fight. He required only two punches to finish the 17-fight veteran. Surprisingly, it wasn’t the quickest professional KO for the Belarus native. Baranchyk owns a three-second KO over Angel Figueroa a partir de 2015.

“I’m very happy,’’ Baranchyk said. “I was expecting a much longer fight. I was focused on a full fight. But knockouts are good. I know fans like knockouts.

“I’ll take a week off and then go back to the drawing board. I’m looking ahead to fighting again soon and on ShoBox again.’’

Givhan was shocked with the result.

“I’m good but I am very, very disappointed,” Givhan said. “This is the lowlight of my life. For me to get knocked out by someone I know I can beat is just the worst feeling. And there’s nothing worse than for it to happen on national television.

“No one expects 20-second fights. Eu só fui pego, that’s all.”

Golub, a former standout amateur from Ukraine, had to rally from the first knockdown of his career. “This was a little tougher than I expected,'' Disse ele. “But it’s all about learning. I had to go through some adversity to win. You don’t know adversity until it hits you in the face.”

Golub was the more active fighter against the awkward Aguas, who was at his best when matters turned ugly. In a bizarre second round, southpaw Golub scored a questionable knockdown as Aguas hit the canvas while clinching and off-balance. Aguas bounced back seconds later to knock down Golub with a short right, sending the Ukrainian to the canvas for the first time in his career.

“I was surprised that I got knocked down, but he caught me off-balance,’’ Golub said. "No geral, I am very happy with my performance.”

Golub resumed control after the second and a series of combinations in the sixth sent a gassed Aguas falling back through the ropes in the closing seconds of the round. Aguas somehow rose to his feet to beat the count, but his trainer quickly waved off the bout when the Ecuadorian returned to the corner.

Aguas said an injury, not fatigue, was the reason his corner stopped the fight at the end of the sixth. “I hurt my right bicep in the fifth round,'' Disse ele. “That’s the reason we stopped it. I wasn’t that tired.”

Na luta de a cerimônia de abertura, DeLoach made Williams a winner in his training debut. With Williams looking on from his wheelchair in the corner, DeLoach, a winner of four in a row, dropped Cook with a devastating, counter-overhand right at 2:47 of the fourth that sent Cook awkwardly to the canvas in a knockout of the year candidate.

“I’m happy with my performance,’’ said DeLoach, who was the more active fighter, jogando quase 100 more punches over the four rounds. “This was a great experience fighting a guy like this in his backyard. I enjoyed the crowd and their enthusiasm. It motivated me. I got a little lazy in parts of the second and third rounds, but I listened to my corner and picked it up on offense and got my punch count up and going again.

“Dillon was a good fighter who moved a lot. I know I have to do better cutting off the ring. He landed with a left a second before I landed that big right. This was a great win for all of us. I’m ready to do this again.’’

“Look at me, look at my shirt. It feels like I was sweating worse than when I fought,’’ said Williams, who’s pro career came to a sudden and tragic end when he was paralyzed from the waist down after a motorcycle accident in May 2012. “I am very relieved to get this one out of the way. I’m very happy for Justin and Mr. Pete (Paul’s longtime manager and trainer and DeLoach’s assistant trainer, George Williams)

"Estou bem, all things considered,’’ said Cook. “He was a tough guy. I’ve never been knocked out before so I don’t exactly know how to act. I felt I was in the fight until I was caught. It’s disappointing, but this was a great learning experience for me. It can only help me in the long run.’’

A taped interview with Williams and ShoBox analyst Steve Farhood aired prior to the bout. In the discussion, Farhood asked the former two-time champ why he chose to return as a trainer for the first time since the 2012 motorcycle accident left him paralyzed. Full Interview:http://s.sho.com/1WPrJ28

REGIS PROGRAIS

"Esta é a minha maior luta. Nós estivemos no ginásio durante dois meses se preparando. Estamos sparring com cada estilo, qualquer coisa é preciso para me preparar.

"Eu tinha todo um divertido muito na minha última luta, porque (Abel) Ramos continuou chegando. Eu estou lutando um veterano, a different kind of guy tomorrow. He’s tough with the Mexican style so I expect him to be smart and know all the tricks.

"Herrera está chegando com nada a perder, mas eu amo lutar o estilo mexicano. Venho treinando em Houston, então ele não vai trazer qualquer coisa que eu não tenha visto antes.

"Eu posso ser um canhoto habilidoso ou posso brigar. Eu adoro lutar, é por isso que eu comecei no boxe. Minha mentalidade é para bater e luta, quando se trata baixo para ele. Às vezes, se eu não acertar eu fico entediado então eu misturar-se um pouco mais por isso vou começar a batida e então eu posso voltar. I pode se ajustar a qualquer estilo.

"Esta é a minha terceira luta em ShoBox e segundo evento principal. Congratulo-me com a pressão, mas ao mesmo tempo eu sei que tenho que ignorá-lo e apenas desfrutar e se divertir lá dentro.

"Mentalmente, Sinto que estou pronto para uma grande luta contra qualquer um dos principais candidatos, mas eu sei que esses tipos de lutas ainda estão um pouco abaixo da linha para mim. Eu ainda tenho muito trabalho a fazer; Eu preciso manter a bater-lo até que eu entendi tudo certo.

"Eu estou ansioso para uma boa luta amanhã. ''

AARON HERRERA

"Esta é uma luta interessante, porque nós dois estamos chegando no esporte. Eu vi algumas lutas dele e sabe o que eu sou contra. Parece que Prograis gosta de vir para a frente e vem para lutar, e eu vou fazer o mesmo, embora eu seja provavelmente mais de um pugilista do que um slugger.

"Trata-se de cuidar dos negócios. Eu estive 12 rodadas antes. I’ve fought some good fighters with good records. Esta é apenas a minha segunda luta na América, mas eu aprendi muito com o primeiro e que vai certamente ajudar-me. Eu tenho mais confiança. Isso não vai ser uma experiência nova para mim.

"Lutei com canhotos antes, então depois de um par de voltas, Tenho certeza de que vai se sentir confortável. Eu definitivamente estou chegando para vencer. Eu não posso esperar para ouvir o sino de abertura. ''

Oy BARANCHYK

"Isto é 100 por cento o melhor cara que já enfrentou. Nick é um grande lutador e não podemos subestimá-lo. Nós sabemos que tudo pode acontecer no boxe. I colocar o trabalho no ginásio e agora eu preciso fazer meu trabalho no ringue.

"Eu sou um perfurador, Eu gosto de trazê-lo e eu vou para o nocaute.

"Eu sou único 23 mas eu trabalho muito duro e sinto que estou bem vinda. Eu estou no ginásio o tempo todo. Uma das principais coisas que trabalham em mais é compostura dentro do ringue. Eu sinto que estou estabelecendo-se mais e trabalhando o jab, mas ainda é algo que funciona em.

"Você simplesmente não pode entrar e bater todos para fora. Não é tão fácil. Você precisa configurar seus socos, por vezes,. Eu nunca vou mudar de ser um perfurador naturais, minha equipe não está tentando tirar o fogo em mim, eles só querem me sossegar. ''

NICK Givhan

"Esta é uma grande oportunidade e eu me sinto abençoado por estar recebendo-o, mas é algo que eu tenho vindo a trabalhar no sentido durante anos. Eu sinto que este é o lugar onde eu deveria estar nesta fase da minha carreira. Eu só preciso entrar no ringue para se certificar de que eu cuido do meu negócio no ringue

"Ele é definitivamente um dos adversários mais difíceis que enfrentei. Ele é grande, poderoso e bate forte toda a luta. Mas eu sou o mais difícil que enfrentou.

"Isso molda-se como um boxeador contra luta perfurador que me favorece. Ele pode sair espetando no início, mas uma vez que ele é tocado, ele pode ser frustrada. Isso é o que eu vou tirar proveito de, o excesso de agressividade.

"Eu estou ansioso para aproveitar o momento, amanhã à noite. ''

IVAN GOLUB

"Estou muito animado por estar neste cartão e ansioso para lutar no meu primeiro ShoBox cartão. Este é um grande passo e que vai ser uma grande luta.

"Quando eu tive a chance de lutar em ShoBox, Eu nem sequer perguntar quem eu estava lutando. Eu treinar com alguns dos melhores lá fora (Ievgen Khytrov,Sergey Derevanchenko, etc.). Mas eu sou mais um boxer-perfurador que alguns dos meus companheiros de equipe.

"Eu trabalho duro. Eu estudo o boxe muito. Eu sei que minha hora está chegando. Enquanto eu mostrar boas habilidades de boxe, o nocaute virá. "

Marlon AQUAS

"Você tem que ter cuidado com figo com fomeI htersu não sei nada sobre, mas eu vou dar 100 por cento em há. Estou aqui para mostrar que tenho o que é preciso para se tornar um campeão do mundo.

"Estou muito motivado. Esta é a minha primeira luta no U.S. e no canal Showtime, então eu estou olhando para fazer uma declaração. Eu sei que depois dessa luta muitas portas se abrirão. As pessoas podem não me conhece agora, mas eles vão me saber depois de amanhã à noite.

"Eu tenho um monte de movimento, mas também pode ficar lá frente a frente e briga. They are making a mistake taking a step up and fighting me. They don’t know what they’re getting into.

"Eu estive fora por causa de uma lesão na minha mão esquerda, mas é totalmente curada e eu estou pronto. Eu tive muita disputa.

"Eu sou mais de um estilista, o pugilista. Eu gosto de se movimentar muito. Mas se eu tiver que ir para lá e briga eu vou. Eu realmente quero mostrar aos fãs que eu sou digno de assistir novamente. ''

DILLON COOK

“This will be my toughest fight but I’m feeling great. I’m excited but not all that nervous. Há alguma pressão lutando na TV pela primeira vez, mas não foi desesperador.

"Esta é uma luta grande; Estou pronto para qualquer coisa que ele traz. Eu não estou tentando excesso de pensar qualquer coisa. Eu só quero fazer o que faço.

"Este é um jogo em casa para mim. Eu vivo sobre 25 minutos. Por isso, ajuda que eu estou acostumado a atmosfera e não tem que viajar.

"Eu vi um pouco dele. Eu sinto as coisas que ele faz o tempo todo vai trabalhar contra ele. Seu estilo de vir para a frente é uma boa para mim. Eu tive muito tempo para se preparar (cinco semanas) de modo que não haverá nenhuma surpresa.

"Eu acredito que tenho as habilidades para ir um pai muito, então eu quero deixar uma boa impressão.

“Speed and footwork are my biggest weapons. I’ve been dazed before, mas não derrubado. ''

JUSTIN DELOACH

"Tudo até este ponto tem sido uma bênção para mim. Esta é definitivamente uma grande luta e eu estou ansioso para fazer o que eu faço e colocar em um grande show. Eu não vi um monte de Dillon mas ele está invicto e está chegando para vencer. Eu estou pronto para o que ele traz.

"Sinto que tenho um monte de talento bruto que ainda está para ser visto. Meu principal coisa é tomar o controle da luta desde o início.

"Isso é tão emocionante. My biggest and most important fight yet. If I do what I’m supposed to I’ll be OK. Este é o primeiro de oito rounds, mas eu não estou preocupado com isso em tudo.

"Nós somos parte de uma grande ShoBox mostra. Eu não posso esperar. ''

Sêneca, MO (Março 18, 2016) - Em Março 25, junior middleweight prospect Dillon “White Lightning” Cook will find himself in a familiar place but with a new challenge when he battles Justin DeLoach in an eight round bout on ShoBox: The New Generation at the Buffalo Run Casino in Miami, ESTÁ BEM.

Tickets for the event promoted by DiBella Entertainment and Holden Productions are $45, $55 e $75 and can be purchased by logging onto Buffalorun.com or Stubwire.com.

Invicto em 16 professional bouts with six wins by knockout, Cook’s fought five of his last seven matches at the Buffalo Run, winning handily each time. A member of Holden Productions’ “Four State Franchise”, the popular Cook is from nearby Seneca, MO and fought in front of sellout crowds on multiple occasions. While these are definite advantages for Cook, DeLoach comes into the ring with an impressive background.

Against DeLoach, 13-1 (7 KO), Cook is taking a significant step up in competition and will do so before a national audience. Hailing from Augusta, GA and based in Houston, TX, DeLoach trained alongside top fighters including IBF junior middleweight champion Jermall Charlo, undefeated Jermell Charlo, Bryan Vera and Edwin Rodriguez amongst others. Recentemente, Team DeLoach announced that his new chief second is former two division champion Paul Williams and highly respected George Peterson will work as an assistant.

To prepare for DeLoach, Cook’s been training out of the Heartland Boxing Gym and travels to various gyms for sparring as he anxiously waits for the opening bell on Março 25.

“I’m excited for the fight but trying not to let the pressure of fighting on TV get to me,” said Cook, a former National Junior Golden Gloves titlist and six time Kansas City Golden Gloves winner. "(To specifically prepare for DeLoach) we’re working on (technique to counter) his style. DeLoach is a good fighter I’ve seen him fight a few times he’s fast and a busy fighter but I’m pretty fast myself. I expect to match his speed, if not beat it.”

Cook also acknowledges his advantages and never second guessed taking the step up in competition.

“I’m a smart fighter and can adapt well (plus the) hometown crowd is definitely a benefit. I knew we’d step (up the competition in the near future) and this is a great time for it. I’ve had 16 professional fights and am ready to show the world that I’m capable of going to the next level.”

Cook’s promoter, Tony Holden, is confident in his fighter and believes the locals will come out droves to support him.

“I’m proud to see him get a shot on a national stage. He’s a key part of the “Four State Franchise” and is a big crowd draw. He’s worked very hard and I expect him to put forth a tremendous performance. I’d like to personally thank Showtime as well for this incredible opportunity.”

The Cook-DeLoach bout opens up a quadrupleheader live on Showtime (10:30 PM ET). The card also features highly regarded junior welterweight Regis Prograis (16-0) against Aaron Herrera (29-4-1), two showdowns where somebody’s 0 must go between unbeaten welterweights Ivan Golub (10-0) and Marlon Aguas (9-0) and junior welterweights Ivan Baranchyk (9-0) vs Nicholas Givhan (16-0-1).

FORMER WORLD CHAMPION TO TRAIN PROSPECT JUSTIN DELOACH

IN FOURTH FIGHT ADDED TO Sexta-feira, MARÇO 25,

ShoBox: A NOVA GERAÇÃO televisionar

“I’m scared all over again, like this is my first fight.” – Paul Williams

Super Welterweight DeLoach Takes on Undefeated Local Favorite Dillon Cook;

Promising Meets Aaron Herrera in Main Event;

Vivo no canal Showtime^® Em 10:30 p.m. E/PT

NOVA IORQUE (Março 15, 2016) – Former two-time world champion Paul Williams, who’s pro career came to a sudden and tragic end when he was paralyzed from the waist down after a motorcycle accident in May 2012, is back in boxing as a trainer.

The popular Williams will work the corner of once-beaten Justin DeLoach (13-1, 7 KOs) when DeLoach faces undefeated super welterweight and local favorite Dillon Cozinhe (16-0, 6 KOs) in the opening eight-round bout of what is now a ShoBox: A Nova Geração quadrupleheader em Sexta-feira, Março 25, viverALTURA DE COMEÇAR (10:30 p.m. E/PT, atrasado na Costa Oeste) a partir de Buffalo Run Casino em Miami, Okla.

DeLoach is the first boxer to be trained by Williams, the former 154-pound southpaw who has been confined to a wheelchair since the accident.

“I guess I was being selfish at first,” Williams said. “I didn’t want to deal with the fight game. I wanted to be the one fighting. But that changed.”

Williams was reluctant to train fighters for a long time. EraGeorge Peterson, who managed and trained Williams from the time the boxer was a skinny kid with little amateur experience until his career ended, that helped persuade “The Punisher” to return to the ring. Williams trains his pupil at a private gym in his hometown of Aiken, S.C.

“You know me, I really didn’t want to do this,’’ Williams said. “But finally after three or four years of George practically begging me to try and do it, this opportunity came along and I decided to give it a shot.

“Everything is about timing. I started thinking about it, George kept asking me and messing with me about it, one thing led to another, and I finally said I’d take a stab at it.
Williams, who is enjoying his new job description, admits there are some pre-fight jitters.

“I’m scared all over again, like this is my first fight. Agora, I have to think about everything that Mr. Pete was thinking about when I was fighting. I have to try and teach Justin what I knew how to do.

“George and I accomplished a lot. He made me a world champion; before that, no one knew who he or I was. We were just a couple of guys from Aiken, S.C. We gave fans fights to remember.

“I was the fighter the press labeled as ‘Most feared in boxing.’ But that’s over for me now. I’m jumping into a whole new thing. It’s been an adjustment but I’m glad I’m doing it.’’

In his role as a trainer, Williams’ mindset has changed drastically from his fighting days. “Look, I always feel good,'' Disse ele. “What’s happened has happened. Isto é o que é. This is my first time stepping back into the world. Eu amo o boxe.

“What I don’t want to see is a fighter getting hurt. This is a hard sport. I know when I was in there I was always going for broke. But I want Justin, all fighters actually, to come out of the ring the same way they came in. Ganhar ou perder, I don’t want to see anybody get hurt.’’

On DeLoach, Williams disse, “He’s a good fighter and now he’s in the spotlight. I want to do my best in the training world to get him at his peak. I hope he does his best. I’d love to one-up George with Justin.’’

Becoming the best takes strenuous work on a daily basis, and Williams was no stranger to putting in the hours.

“I never took a shortcut,'' Disse ele. “You take shortcuts, you know what’ll happen. I took the long road home when I was fighting and fans, lutadores, everybody knew what to expect when I stepped in the ring.

“Justin isn’t like this, but one thing I know is that fighters think they’re slick. Bem, you can’t pull anything over me. Eu estive lá, seen it all.’’

E, como sempre, he’ll have George Peterson by his side.

“I’m just helping Paul,’’ said Peterson, who will serve as Williams’ assistant trainer. “So far, he’s doing great.”

It will be the ShoBox e 2016 estréias — and toughest fight to date — for both DeLoach and Cook.

DeLoach was a top amateur, competing in the USA Boxing National Championships in 2012. He won a National Silver Golden Gloves title when he was 13.

The 22-year-old DeLoach, of Augusta, Ga., has won three in a row since suffering his lone loss to Cesar Villa em fevereiro. 6, 2015. That was before he started training with Williams.

“This has been a total blessing, and I say that every day,” DeLoach said. “Thank God. He’s the one who brought the two of us together, isso é o principal. Paul loves it, just to be back. I think he was scared at first, his reputation was at stake and so was mine.

“But he’s been so helpful – just in the mental side of things. I was already a good boxer but he’s taken me to another level mentally. He’s been pushing me, criticizing me, giving me instructions and picking my brain.”

DeLoach and Williams grew up just 30 minutes down the road from each other.

“Me and Paul, we’ve known each other our whole lives,’’ DeLoach said. “I’m from Augusta, Ga., and he was right across in Aiken. We knew each other when I was coming up as an amateur. He came to my last pro fight that was in San Antonio. When I saw him, I got so excited. We started to talk and I said something like, 'Hey, Paul, wouldn’t it be cool if we got together?'

“Once I came home, we started working together and he’s been training me since. I think we’re going on about three months now. It’s an unbelievable feeling to be able to work with one of my favorite fighters.”

Em sua última excursão, DeLoach won a shutout four-round decision overSantos Benavides último Dezembro. 12. DeLoach, a pro since March 2013, fought six times that year and four times each in 2014 e 2015.

“I’m really looking forward to fighting for the first time for him,” DeLoach said. “I’ve gone crazy waiting for my break and an opportunity like this to fight on SHOWTIME. I know it’s not easy fighting in your opponent’s backyard, but with Paul, George Peterson and me and my skills, we are confident it will be a good fight.’’

Cozinheiro, 25, is from Seneca, Mo., which is located about 20 minutes from Buffalo Run Casino where he has fought six times. A top amateur, he won six Golden Gloves titles, a Junior Golden Gloves National title, a Heartland title and four regional Silver Gloves titles. He is popular at Buffalo Run and will be making his premium network television debut against easily his most dangerous assignment as a pro. Cook’s brother, Jesse, a welterweight with a record of 15-1-1, will box on the non-televised portion of the event.

Dillon Cook turned pro in August 2012, fought twice that year, seven times in 2013, four times in 2014 and three times last year. Five of his last seven took place at Buffalo Run, including two out of three in 2015. He’s coming off a lopsided eight-round decision overRahman Yusubov último Novembro. 14.

“I couldn’t be more excited about making my ShoBox estréia, right at home, at the Buffalo Run Casino,” Cook said. “This is a huge opportunity for me, and I plan on putting on a spectacular showing, for all my fans there that night and everyone watching on TV.”

No ShoBox evento principal, unbeaten super lightweight knockout artist and emerging rising star, Regis "Rougarou" PROGRAMAS (16-0, 13 KOs), Houston by way of New Orleans, will meet experienced Aaron "The Jewel" Herrera (29-4-1, 18 KOs), of Valladolid, México, in a 10-round match.
