"Hoc torneamentum ideae me cum 2021 nutibus fuisse," GCP praeses Chris Traietti dixit. “Velebam felis in eo vellere donec sensi tamquam quasdam initiales curas elaboratas habere et quattuor guys rectas habui.. Omnes conveniunt nunc est! Nulla compositione pugnarum cum his quattuor quae in campanili apertione recta non erunt.

Pugnatoribus gratias ago propter passionem suam in parte alicuius huius modi speciali et Commissio Massachusettae pro omnibus eius auxiliis in navigando me ut omnes quaestiones salutis de instrumento electronico et tractato sic sanciri possent".

Hic est naufragii quattuor "Granite Chin Box Off" challengers:

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

Perkins est praecellens tournament ventus secundum suum pro recordum et qualitatem oppositionis. Gravidgger interdiu, Perkins sola detrimenta in Steve Sumpter ultimo Augusti passa est (9-0, 7 KOs), amissis octo-rotundis maioris sententiae vacanti IBA America Super Middleweight Championship.

"Ego vere exspecto hunc eventum". Semper in hastiludio certare volui quod numquam in Gloves Aurea aut aliquo amateur torneamentis pugnavi.. Placui pro vertere post Sextum amateur pugna. Melius est eventu in hockey rink teneri quia tota vita mea crevit in hockey ludentem. Ego coepi skating ad duos annos et per totam viam egit alta schola (S.. Mariae de Lynn).

"Paratus sum agere quidquid apud me venerit". Scio qui omnes pugnatores sunt, sed scio Clarkium multum plus quam alios pugnatores. Me et Clark pluries in eodem card. Ego Clark amo et guy est lentus, si denique anulum simul, erit omne negotium. Amici non erimus cum ibi sumus. Fine noctis, Valde confido me victorem esse torneamentum."

Antonius "Mitis barbarus" Andreozzi (5-3, 2 KOs), Swansea, MA

Vetus Massachusetts Middleweight Champion, Andreozzi ex truculento crure / talo iniuriam plus quam anno elapso passus est, hoc praeteritum Februarii reddens 24th in secundo per Knockout de Igor Pessoa.

"Est" (tournament) certo limites praevaricationem. Genus torneamentum est ubi motus animi magni momenti erit. Primum onus tuum in prima pugna flare non potes et successorem exspectare. Habeo pauca certamina centum par et duodecim karate compositus. In potestate motus sum usus necessarios ut bis una nocte vim facerem. Non expectare!

"Ryan Clark est magnus guy". Ante pugnam meam cum Kyle Cusick elaboravimus (Aprilis 22, 2022). Perkins sex circumeunt cum priore teammate meum. Bernardus videtur bonus dude, nihil personae contra eum. "

Bernardus Josephi (6-1, 4 KOs), Dorcestriae, MA

Iosephus duas pugnas ultimas vicit et cum quattuor pugnis strenuus fuit 2023 et haec erit secunda eius anni 2024.

"Aliter est" (torneamentum forma), sed venit usque ad viam. multum mihi parcere facio et quod mihi bonum erit. Descenditur ad disciplinam et adipiscendi corpus meum ad intermissum sicut in sparring. Pugnare potui quattuor et sex.

"Ego sum pro nunc", pugnando sex rounders, sed non longa interposita mora inter pugnas sicut in hoc torneamento. Tempus rehydrandi et noctis secundae pugnam expediri dabit. Video alios pugnatores vidi et quoslibet non malus hiantes, sed non possum non sentire me omnia deliciarum vincere.

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

A naturalis middleweight, Clark moveatur gravissimum in hastiludio, quod bene sibi conscius est sed non nimis pertinet. Alius actio-packed Pugnator, Clark's litteras fallit quia tam lentus est quam veniunt et quemlibet aliorum trium provocatorum vincere capax est..

"Est" (tournament) magna idea. Chris (Traietti) est dolor guy, et hoc torneamentum in fans convivii providebit, et erit pugna pugnantium. Laudo suam ideam. Ego saepe pugnare ad 160 et hoc torneamentum me habet pugnam in paulo grandiore classe. Ego amo provocationem.

"Scio Tony et Perkins et revereor eos". Sunt ingeniosi. Haec (tournament) est similis sparring. Tibi parcant quinque vel sex rounds, Suspendisse circa loquentes, ut in aliqua alia disciplina, et in anulo redire iterum spar-. Hoc nimis dissimile non est."

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

thumbnail_IMG_3224.jpg
Las Vegas (January 12, 2022) World Cup Boxing Series (WCBS) has finalized plans for its inaugural “4-Man Lightweight Tournament,” presented by Roy Jones Jr. (RJJ) Boxing Promotions, 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, si opus fuerit,, 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.


Flores, 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).
Ultima Augusti, 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.”

With three high-profile signings confirmed and many more to come, the stage is set for an exciting tournament. “The quest for the Muhammad Ali Trophy has officially begun and we are thrilled to welcome two unbeaten world champions and a top-ranked challenger, who is a former champion, to the World Boxing Super Series,” Dalmiglio said. “They have accepted the ultimate challenge to determine the best cruiserweight in the world.
Season 1 of the World Boxing Super Series will feature the cruiserweights and super-middleweight divisions. In each weight class, eight top fighters will battle out a bracket-style elimination tournament. There will be four quarter-finals (September / October 2017), two semi-finals (early 2018) and one final (May 2018), which makes for a total of 14 high-class fights. “We have received a massive amount of applications for both divisions,” said Kalle Sauerland, Comosa`s Chief Boxing Officer. “The best fighters are lining up to be in the tournament. Just like the fans, they love the format and the fact that there will only be one man standing at the end.
Richard Schaefer, Comosa`s Chairman of the Americas, additae: “We promised you the biggest names and champions in the divisions and here we are delivering. More names will follow shortly. We simply can’t wait to get the action started!”
The quarter-final pairings will be determined during the Draft Gala in Monaco in early July. In each weight class, the four top-seeded boxers (which will be determined by the Comosa Board) will select their quarter-final opponents from the four unseeded boxers. Once the pairings are set, the exact fight dates and venues will be announced. Details about the participants in the super-middleweight division will be revealed shortly.
