KWARTA, Misa. (Marso 26, 2024) - Mga Promosyon sa Granite Chin (GCP) mipahibalo sa paglusad sa iyang innovative one-night tournament, “Granite Chin Box Off,” niadtong Sabado sa gabii, Mayo 11, nga nagpakita sa usa ka quartet sa throw-back super middleweight fighters gikan sa New England headlining sa “Rumble at the Rink” pro boxing card, sa Quincy Youth Arena sa Quincy, Massachusetts.

Ang quartet sa mga super middleweight makig-away sa tulo ka hugna nga away (4th round sa kalit nga kamatayon kon gikinahanglan sa kaso sa usa ka draw) sayo sa gabii ug ang duha ka mananaog moabante sa lima ka hugna nga main event (6th round sa kalit nga kamatayon sa panghitabo sa usa ka draw) aron madeterminar ang kampeon sa plano sa promoter nga si Chris Traietti nga mahimong tinuig nga torneyo, nga gitugutan sa Massachusetts Boxing Commission.

Ang tanan nga upat ka mga manggugubat mga agresibo ug kusgan nga moabut aron makig-away, nga gihubad ngadto sa usa ka halandumon nga gabii alang sa mga fans.

"Kini nga torneyo usa ka ideya nga akong gi-flirt sukad sa 2021," miingon ang presidente sa GCP nga si Chris Traietti. "Dili ko gusto nga ibira ang gatilyo niini hangtod nga gibati nako nga ingon og ako adunay pipila sa mga una nga mga kabalaka nga nahimo ug ako adunay husto nga upat ka mga lalaki. Nahiusa na ang tanan karon! Wala’y kombinasyon sa mga away sa upat nga dili mapuno sa aksyon gikan sa pagsugod sa kampana. Kini usa ka butang nga giplano sa Granite Chin nga buhaton matag tuig, mao nga sa higayon nga makompleto na kining inaugural tournament, sutaon nato kini aron masuta kung gikinahanglan ba ang mga pag-uswag aron maandam ang usa 2025. Salamat sa mga manggugubat alang sa ilang kadasig sa pagkahimong bahin sa usa ka espesyal nga butang nga sama niini ug sa Massachusetts Commission alang sa tanan nga tabang niini sa pag-navigate kanako aron matubag ug madumala ang tanan nga mga isyu sa kahilwasan aron kini mahatagan og pagtugot.

Ania ang usa ka breakdown sa upat ka "Granite Chin Box Off" challengers:

James "Pitbull" Perkins (13-1-1, 9 KOs), Lynn, MA

Si Perkins ang paborito sa pre-tournament base sa iyang pro record ug kalidad sa oposisyon. Usa ka gravedigger sa adlaw, Si Perkins nag-antus sa iyang nag-inusarang kapildihan niadtong Agosto ngadto kang Steve Sumpter (9-0, 7 KOs), napildi sa walo ka hugna nga mayoriya nga desisyon alang sa bakanteng IBA America Super Middleweight Championship.

“Nagpaabot gyud ko ani nga panghitabo. Kanunay kong gusto nga makig-away sa usa ka torneyo tungod kay wala ako nakig-away sa Golden Gloves o bisan unsang amateur nga mga torneyo. Nakahukom ko nga mahimong pro pagkahuman sa akong ikaunom nga away sa amateur. Mas maayo pa nga ang kalihokan gihimo sa usa ka hockey rink tungod kay ako nagdako sa akong tibuok kinabuhi nga nagdula og hockey. Nagsugod ko sa skating sa duha ka tuig ang edad ug nagdula hangtod sa high school (St. Mary ni Lynn).

"Andam ko nga atubangon ang bisan unsa nga moabut kanako. Nahibal-an ko kung kinsa ang tanan nga mga manggugubat, pero mas nakaila ko ni Clark kay sa ubang fighters. Ako ug si Clark nag-away sa samang card sa makadaghang higayon. Ganahan ko ni Clark ug siya usa ka gahi nga lalaki, pero kung magdungan mi sa ring, mahimong negosyo ang tanan. Dili mi mag uyab kung naa mi. Sa kataposan sa gabii, Masaligon kaayo ko nga ako ang modaog sa torneyo.”

Anthony "The Gentle Savage" Andreozzi (5-3, 2 KOs), Swansea, MA

Usa ka kanhi Massachusetts Middleweight Champion, Naayo na si Andreozzi gikan sa usa ka brutal nga kadaot sa bitiis / buolbuol nga nahiaguman kapin sa usa ka tuig ang milabay, nibalik karong Pebrero 24th sulod sa ikaduhang hugna nga knockout ni Igor Pessoa.

“Kini (tournament) paglapas sa mga utlanan sigurado. Kini ang matang sa torneyo diin importante ang pagkontrolar sa emosyon. Dili nimo mabugto ang imong load sa unang hugna sa unang away ug magdahom gihapon nga molampos. Duna koy pipila ka gatos nga wrestling matches ug kapin sa usa ka dosena nga karate match. Naanad na ko sa emosyonal nga pagkontrol nga gikinahanglan aron epektibong makabuhat og kapintasan kaduha sa usa ka gabii. Ako dili maghulat!

"Si Ryan Clark usa ka maayong tawo. Nakahimo na mi og rounds sa wala pa ang akong away ni Kyle Cusick (Abril 22, 2022). Si Perkins miapil og unom ka malisud nga hugna uban sa akong kanhi kauban sa team. Morag buotan si Bernard, busa walay personal batok kaniya.”

Bernard Joseph (6-1, 4 KOs), Dorchester, MA

Si Joseph nakadaog sa iyang katapusang duha ka away ug aktibo sa upat ka away 2023 ug kini mao ang iyang ikaduha sa 2024. Ang 33-anyos nga aduna usab usa ka hometown advantage nga makig-away sa duol nga Quincy.

“Lahi kini (pormat sa torneyo), apan kini moabut ngadto sa paagi sa atong pagbansay. Daghan kog sparring ug maayo kana para nako. Kini moabut ngadto sa pagbansay ug pagpasanay sa akong lawas sa break sama sa sparring. Mahimo kong makig-away sa upat ka hugna ug unya unom.

“Pro ko karon, nakig-away sa unom ka rounders, apan dili sa taas nga paghunong tali sa mga away sama niining torneyo. Maghatag kini kanako og panahon sa pag-rehydrate ug pag-andam alang sa ikaduhang away sa gabii. Nakita nako ang video sa tanan nga uban pang mga manggugubat ug dili ako daotan nga nagsulti bisan kinsa, apan dili nako mabati nga ako ang paborito nga makadaog sa tanan.

Ryan Clark (4-5, 2 KOs), Barrington, KANAKO

Usa ka natural nga middleweight, Si Clark maoy nagsaka sa pinakataas nga gibug-aton sa torneyo, usa ka butang nga nahibal-an niya pag-ayo apan dili kaayo nabalaka. Laing fighter nga puno sa aksyon, Ang rekord ni Clark nagpahisalaag tungod kay siya sama ka lig-on sa ilang pag-abot ug makahimo sa pagpildi sa bisan kinsa sa laing tulo ka mga challenger..

“Kini (tournament) usa ka maayong ideya. Chris (Traietti) usa ka maalamon nga lalaki, ug kini nga torneyo maghatag ug kalingawan sa mga fans, ug kini usa ka hagit alang sa mga manggugubat. Gidayeg ko ang iyang ideya. Kanunay kong mag-away sa 160 ug kini nga torneyo nakig-away kanako sa usa ka gamay nga mas dako nga timbang nga klase. Ganahan ko sa hagit.

“Nakaila ko kang Tony ug Perkins ug gitahud ko sila. Talentado sila. Kini (tournament) susama sa sparring. Nag-spar ko og lima o unom ka round, pagbitay sa pagsulti, kuha ug laing training, ug unya balik sa ring aron mag-spar na usab. Kini dili kaayo lahi. ”

Mexican Quartet announced for World Cup Boxing Series “4-Man Lightweight Tournament” February 24th in Mexico

thumbnail_IMG_3224.jpg
LAS VEGAS (Enero 12, 2022) World Cup Boxing Series (WCBS) has finalized plans for its inaugural “4-Man Lightweight Tournament,” presented by Roy Jones Jr. (RJJ) Mga Pagpasiugda sa Boxing, with the semifinals on February 24th at Palenque De La Expo in Ciudad Obregon, Sonora, Mexico.

At its 59th annual World Boxing Council (WBC) Convention in Mexico City this past November, the WBC committee approved to sanction the WCBS’ “4-Man lightweight Tournament,” created by CEO Terry Hollan and matchmaker Guy Taylor.

“We are extremely grateful for the WBC to sanction our upcoming ‘4-Man Lightweight Tournament,’” Taylor said. “The semifinals will be held February 24th, the championship final June 2nd. The World Boxing Council will crown the winner of the ‘4-Man Tournament’ as its new WBC Latino Lightweight Champion.”


“The WBC hopes to be able to sanction more World Cup Boxing Series tournaments and create great regional champions to enter our world rankings and achieve their goals with the WBC,” WBC Latino President Alberto Guerra commented.


The WCBS “4-Man Tournament” semifinals matchups have been announced: Luis “Koreano” Torres (14-0, 9 KOs) vs. Rodolfo “Rudy” Flores (14-5, 6 KOs), Alberto “El Alacan” Ruiz (11-4, 8 KOs) vs. Isai “Gaga” Hernandez (11-2-2, 7 KOs).


Semifinal’s action will be contested in 8-round bouts, 10 rounds for the championship final. The WCBS will also feature one “overtime” round, kon gikinahanglan, to declare a winner in the event of a draw upon the conclusion of the scheduled distance.


WCBS will also be offering a “Fight of the Night” and “Knockout” bonuses to each contestant through the duration of its “4-Man Lightweight Tournament.”


The 20-year-old Torres is the favorite going into the tournament. The southpaw is a former WBC Youth Silver lightweight champion who has cruised through his first 14 opponents since making his pro debut in 2017. His last fight was an impressive 10-round decision over Guillermo Avila Godinez (19-11) this past December in Ciudad Obregon.


Bulak, 26, has won two of his last three fights. His most notable wins have been by decision versus Jesus Acosta Zazueta (16-5-2) and Jairo Lopez (18-5).
Last August, Ruiz upset 15-0 WBC Latino Lightweight Champion Jair Valtierra by way of a fifth-round knockout to capture the crown.
Hernandez has won five of his last six matches, excluding a “no-contest” in his last fight against 13-0-1 Francisco Lopez, in which Hernandez was holding his own until the fight was stopped due to an accidental headbutt.


“To have undefeated Luis Torres, Mexico’s top-rated lightweight prospect, and the last one to be WBC Latino champion, Alberto Ruiz, in this tournament should show everyone the quality fighters we are providing,” Taylor concluded. “Any man can be defeated on any given night and that’s the beauty of a tournament model.”
