2018 Western Elite Kualifikimet dhe Kampionatet Rajonale Hapur
Det. 6-10 në Konventës Albuquerque Center

COLORADO SPRINGS, Prehër. (Mars 1, 2018) – SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL Kshrhy-Taina Moreu, një nga boksierët amatorë rinore të lartë në botë, do të bëjë të saj USA Boxing në Elite Divizionin e Grave në shtëpi në Albuquerque, Mars 6-10, në 2018 USA Boxing Perëndimore Elite Kualifikimet dhe Kampionatet Rajonale Hapur.

Moreu 18-vjeçari, i cili ka në plan të marrë pjesë në kolegj të komunitetit të vitit të ardhshëm, a është 2016 USA Boxing Champion Kombëtar, përveç një katër herë Native American dhe 2014 kampion Gene Lewis. Ajo ishte një medalist argjendi në 2015 Junior / Rinia Open dhe 2014/2015 kampionate Junior Olimpike.

Boks, babai i saj / trajneri, yoruba Moreu, vonë Johnny Tapia ndihmuar atë të kapërcyer tragjedinë jetës në ndryshim e vdekjes së nënës së saj në një aksident automobilistik, fallsifikimit një rrugë të re për të si një model dhe 2020 shpresë olimpike. “Unë kam qenë vetëm tetë kur më vdiq nëna,” Moreu mend. “Unë po pushonte në e saj kur makina-mbështjellë dhe ajo u hodh nga dritarja e pasme. Unë kam qenë i pari i kartës dhe në autostradë pa pagesë kërkuar ndihmë.

“Unë jam një person më të mirë për shkak të këtij aksidenti, megjithëse. Në fillim, Unë kam qenë i penduar dhe i zemëruar, duke marrë në lufton dhe në një rrugë të keqe. Kam marrë në boks, Menaxhimi i mori zemërimit, dhe u bë i motivuar. Unë nuk e kuptojnë se unë do të bëhet një model, derisa vajzat filloi duke i kërkuar mua për këshilla. Ato duken deri në mua dhe disa prej tyre unë tani trajner.”
Moreu filloi boksin në moshën 12 dhe Tapia, pesë herë, kampion bote tre ndarje, përveç sa 1983 dhe 1985 Doreza kampion kombëtar Artë, pati një ndikim të jashtëzakonshëm në Sharahya-Taina që do të mbetet në zemrën e saj dhe shpirtin për jetën.
“Ne u bë si familje,” Moreu tha. “Në fillim, ai nuk e pëlqen vajzat boks, kështu që ai ka punuar më të vërtetë e vështirë. Unë kam qenë një lojtar i mirë basketbolli dhe ai e mbajti thënë mua për të shkuar të luajtur basketboll. Por ai u bë një njeri i madh në jetën time, Unë mendoj se, sepse unë kishte humbur nënën time në një moshë të tillë të rinj. Ai më ndihmoi brenda dhe jashtë unazës në shumë mënyra. Johnny Tapia ishte nicest, njeriu më i përulur që kam takuar ndonjëherë. Ne u bë familja e deri në palestër u shpërbë. Ai vetëm coached mua për tetë muaj, por ai më mësoi se boksi përcakton ty si person, në dhe nga unaza. Unë ndjehen të sigurt në ring. Unë jam një person më të mirë për shkak të Johnny dhe boksit.”

Style-i mençur, dëmton Sharahya-Taina mbi kundërshtarët e saj’ gabime, rregullimi në unazën e njëjtë si, ajo tha, “Ashtu si në jetë.” në 5′ 10″, Moreu ka një lartësi dhe për të arritur të dallueshme përparësi mbi pjesën më të madhe të mesme kundërshtarët, duke përdorur këto atribute, Shpejtësia e saj dhe goditje e ashpër të grumbullohem relentlessly deri pikë.

Ajo fuqimisht beson se, për arsye të Claressa Shields‘ Shfaqjet ari medalje në 2012 dhe 2016 Olimpiada, dyert janë të hapura të gjerë për gratë në boks. “Unë pashë një grua amerikane të bëjë atë që bëri Clarissa dhe të bëhet një forcë dominuese në boks,” Moreu vërejti. “(2016 U.S. Madhështor dhe tre herë USA Boxing Champion Kombëtar)) Mikaela Mayer (3-0, 2 KO si një pro) ka ndihmuar shumë, shumë. Ajo nënshkroi me një promotor të mirë (Top Rank). Boxing është ngadalë bëhet më mirë për gruan, ndoshta jo të barabarta me burrat, por ka më shumë vajza Boks sot se kurrë më parë dhe kjo është një shenjë e mirë.”

Luftimi në shtëpi në kualifikimet perëndimore ka një domethënie të veçantë për Moreu. “I menduar luftuar në Albuquerque do të jetë një shumë e presionit,” ajo pranoi, “por ka jo shumë presion mbi mua për shkak të të gjitha mbështetja unë jam duke marrë. Është e lehtë këtu. Albuquerque nuk është si një qytet i madh, por është duke u bërë një qytet luftë.

“Më pëlqen të udhëtojnë dhe të takohet me njerëz të ndryshëm. Vitin e kaluar, I përfaqësuar në Shtetet e Bashkuara në Indi në Kampionatin Rinisë, dhe pashë një pjesë tjetër të botës, se si njerëzit të trajnuar dhe kishin stile të ndryshme të jetës. Unë jam kthyer 19 maj, kështu që kjo është për herë të parë tim boks në një turne Elite, dhe është e madhe duke bërë atë në vendlindjen time.

Moreu gjithashtu kredi atit të saj një sasi të madhe të suksesit të saj në ring dhe jetën. “Ai ka qenë një prind i vetëm, por ai gjithmonë është aty duke bërë më të mirën për mua si një baba dhe trajner,” Sharahya-Taina vuri në dukje. “Shumica e njerëzve nuk e dinë se ai është Puerto Rican, nëna ime një Native American (Pueblo).”

Ashtu si shumica e të rinjve, atletët elitës, Sharahya-Taina ka një ëndërr. “2020 në Olimpiadën,” ajo arriti në përfundimin. “Unë dua për të krijuar veten si një amator dhe përfundimisht shkojnë pro dhe të ketë një karrierë të mirë.”

Billy Walsh (qendër) is shown here receiving his Best of 2017 Elite World Championships Award

C
OLORADO SPRINGS, Prehër. (Shkurt 22, 2018) – USA Boxing head coach Billy Walsh was the head coach of his native country’s amateur program in Ireland for 12 years and, ironi, those two squads will compete in three friendly duals next month on the 2018 SHBA vs. Ireland Northeast Tour.
Një 1988 Ireland Olympian, Walsh coached the Irish Team from 2003 në 2015, and he took over Team USA in 2015, capturing the AIBA’s World Coach of the Year the past two years.
The USA vs. Ireland Northeast Boxing Tour will commence Mars 12 në Royale komplekse argëtimi Bostonit, followed by match-ups on Mars 15 në Qendrën MassMutual në Springfield, Mass., and Manchester, NH will close out tours onMars 21 në Downtown Hotel The Manchester. Boxing do të fillojë në 7:00 ores. EST në të tre qytetet.

Tickets for any of these events may be purchased online at http://go.teamusa.org/2nX3Vjc. Çdo qytet do të shfaqë deri në 12 fundet, each to be live-streamed, pa pagese, në faqen e internetit USA Boxing-së (www.usaboxing.org).

“Në fund të ditës,” the 54-year-old Walsh admitted, “it is an unusual situation for me. But I’ve been coaching here two years and Team USA is my team now. I didn’t come here for just a few years. When I eventually leave, Team USA will have developed continuity and a solid program.
I am a true Irishman who developed through a system that won multiple titles and I was the Irish Team captain for five years. I’m helping develop strong relations between USA and Ireland that can help both programs. Ireland has been among the best of the worldamazing considering the geographical size of Irelandwith its fightersgreat hearts along with their technique and skill. There’s a lot of talent and resources in the states, but amateur boxers have been taught to develop skills more for professional boxing. Here there is a variety of different ethnic groups: Mexicans, African-American and Caucasians, shumë. It’s truly a melting pot and each has a unique style of boxing. We are now providing coaching education for US programs to be sustainable long term.
Boston, sigurisht, is known for being Irish friendly, to say the least. The Mayor of Boston, for example, është Marty Walsh. Coach Walsh has only been in Boston once, 10 years ago with his wife for a short holiday.
I didn’t do or get to see too much,” Walsh added. “but I know that there’s a lot of Irish history in Boston. Boston is a home away from home for the Irish. I have some friends and family there. I even joke that the mayor is my cousin. I understand that there are a lot of Irish in Springfield and Manchester, po ashtu. I’m looking forward to going to all three cities on this tour.
Rosters for the USA and Irish teams will soon be announced.

SHBA vs. Ireland Northeast Boxing Tour Kicks-off March 12 në Boston

Fightin’ Irlandez” boxing history
Rich in Boston
COLORADO SPRINGS, Prehër. (Shkurt 12, 2018) – “Fightin’ Irlandez” and Boston boxing has been synonymous for more than a century, since the Irish first started emigrating to the United States in general, Boston in particular, pas Great Potato Famine.
Many Irish and Irish-American boxers have fought in the Greater Boston area, some born and others resettling there. This rich tradition continues next month in a different way when the three-city 2018 SHBA vs. Ireland Northeast Boxing Tour kicks-off E hënë, Mars 12, at the newly renovated Royale Entertainment Complex in Boston’s famed theater district. The Boston stop, which is being presented by Budweiser, will have general admission tickets for $20.00 and a limited amount of $30.00 reserved tickets go on sale today (E hënë, Shkurt. 12) në 12 ores. DHE are available to purchase online here.
The USA vs. Ireland Northeast Boxing Tour will continue Mars 15 në Qendrën MassMutual në Springfield, Mass., concluding Mars 21 at The Manchester Downtown Hotel in New Hampshire.
All the duals will begin at 7:00 ores. EST dhe bileta do të vihen në dispozicion për blerje në javët e ardhshme. Çdo qytet do të shfaqë deri në 12 fundet, which will all be live streamed, pa pagese, në faqen e internetit USA Boxing-së (www.usaboxing.org).
The tradition started back in the 19th century with The Boston Strongboy,” Nevojtore. L. Sullivan (Roxbury, MA), the first millionaire American athlete, as well as the firstglovesworld heavyweight champion and finalbare knucklesheavyweight champion of the world. An International Boxing Hall of Famer, Sullivan won 38 i 38 lufton pro, 30 coming by knockout, with only one loss and two draws.
Another Hall-of-Famer from that era, Jake Kilrain (29-5-8, 17 KO), lived in Somerville and Quincy, both Boston suburbs. Kilrain (1829-1899) also reigned as world heavyweight champion.
Irish boxers from Greater Boston continued this rich tradition through the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th centuries with world champions and top contenders such as welterweight Paddy Duffy (31-3,16, 18 KO), Lawrence welterweight Mike Glover(Cavanaugh – 30-5-5, 16 KO), and Charlestown welterweight Mikrofon “TwinSullivan(28-6-16, 17 KO), and Newton bantamweight Jimmy Walsh (33-10-20, 14 KO)
In the 1950’s, Woburn lightweight “Irlandez” Tommy Collins (61-12, 44 KO) was dropped 10 times at the Boston Garden by world champion Jimmy Carter, until he finally succumbed in the fourth round. His gutsy performance, megjithatë, earned him an appearance on the popular Ed Sullivan Show.
Arlington heavyweight Tom McNeeley (37-14, 28 KO), unsuccessfully fought for the world title in 1961, stopped in the fourth round of his Toronto fight versus defending champion Floyd Patterson, and McNeeley’s son, Boston-native and later Medfield resident Peter “Stuhi” McNeeley (47-7, 30 KO) famously was stopped in the opening round by “Hekur” Mike Tyson in the latter’s first fight after his release from prison.
In the 1980’s, Irish boxers made their way to Boston to fight; some returned home after their careers, others relocated in the area. Në 1984, Ireland-native Sean Mannion (42-14, 13 KO), who had moved to the Dorchester section of Boston, lost a 15-round decision in Madison Square Garden to Mike McCallum for the World Boxing Association (WBA) Super Middleweight World Championship.
Steve “Celtic WarriorCollins (25-2-1, 18 KO) moved to Everett, later to Brockton, to work with Goody dhe Pat Petronelli, who handled Mrekullueshme Marvin Hagler throughout is Hall of Fame career. Collins captured the World Boxing Organization (WBO) middleweight and super middleweight world titles before moving back to Ireland.
Collinsyounger brother, Packie Collins, also moved to Brockton to fight. He later worked with Irish heavyweight champion Kevin “The Clones ColossusMcBride (35-10-1, 29 KO), who went on to knock Tyson out and into retirement. McBride, who still lives in Dorchester, was a stablemate of former Team Ireland head coach and current Team USA head coach, Billy Walsh, at the European Games. Both were also Ireland Olympians, përkatësisht, në 1988 dhe 1992.
Another Ireland Olympian, WaynePocket RocketMcCullough (27-7, 18 KO), moved to Las Vegas from Northern Ireland. The luck of the Irish wasn’t with him in Boston in 1997, when he lost his World Boxing Council (WBC) bantamweight title at Hynes Convention Center, by way of a 12-round split decision to Daniel Zaragoza.
Arguably the most famous and popular Irish-American boxer, outside of Sullivan and Jack Dempsey, is Lowell junior welterweight “Irlandez” Micky Ward (38-13, 27 KO), who was involved in three Fight of the Year award winners, two from his epic trilogy with Arturo Gatti, and the first boxer with more than 10 career losses to earn a $1-million purse. Ward’s life was portrayed by another Boston icon, actor Mark Wahlberg, in the award-winning movie, “The Fighter.
Irish boxers are still coming to Boston to fight. Locally-based Murphys Boxing has promoted numerous shows in Boston featuring world-class boxers such as Gary “Gozhdë” O'Sullivan and undefeated super bantamweight TJ “Pushtet” Doheny (18-0, 13 KO), as well as undefeated rising stars such as StingRay Mayotte and New England & Massachusetts heavyweight champion Niall Kennedy (10-0, 6 KO).
The Irish team will announce its boxers later this month after the conclusion of its National Championships.
Headlining Team USA’s roster is 2017 medaljen e bronzit World Championship Troy Isley(Aleksandri, VA). USA Boxing’s team will also include Virginia Fuchs (Kemah, Texas), who won four international gold medals in 2017, 2016 Youth World Champion dhe 2017 Elite Continental Championships medaljen argjendi, delante Johnson (Cleveland, OH), 2017 USA Boxing Heavyweight National Champion Jared Anderson (Toledo, OH) dhe 2016 medaljen e bronzit Youth World Championship dhe 2017 USA Boxing Super Kampion Kombëtar Heavyweight, Richard Torrez (Tulare, Të tilla si).

Is USA Boxing Nationals Champion Jared Anderson America’s next great heavyweight?

COLORADO SPRINGS, Kolorado (Dhjetor 21, 2017) – Christmas came early for Jared Anderson, who not only won the heavyweight title at the recent USA Boxing National Championships, the 18-year-old also captured the Most Outstanding Boxer Award in the Elite Division.
Seeded No. 7 in an eight-boxer field at The Nationals, Anderson, in order, defeated No. 2 Jesus Flores në raundin e hapjes, 5-0, edged No. 3 Adrian Tillman në gjysmëfinale, 3-2, and upset five-time national champion Cam F. Awesome, 5-0, në finalen e kampionatit.
In USA Boxing’s most recently listed heavyweight ratings (Nëntor. 17, 2017), Tillman and Awesome are ranked No. 1 dhe 2, përkatësisht, Flores is No. 5, and Anderson is unranked.
I think that’s going to change,” Anderson noted. “Winning the heavyweight title and Most Outstanding Boxing Award meant the world to me. Maybe some people had never heard of me, but I’ve been boxing since I was eight, and I’ve faced a lot of different styles.
I had a vendetta going with Tillman and, instead of boxing, I tried to take his head off. Simple work allowed me to beat Awesome. He is a good fighter. Cam does what he wants in the ringthrows jabs, sits there and builds up pointsand intimidates some opponents. I took the fight to him. Not wild, megjithëse, because he’d have been there in the ring, calm and smiling, and I would have lost. I used my jab more than anything against him.
One of 11 siblings in two households, Anderson is another USA Boxing success story. Growing up in Toledo, Ohio, Anderson was constantly getting into trouble in school and boxing eventually saved him. His mother convinced her son to meet a local boxing coach, who introduced Jared to boxing, drilling discipline into him, something Jared desperately needed at that point in his young life.
Boxing in Toledo has also aided his overall development in boxing. “We push each other,” Anderson explained. “We support each other and perfect our crafts. There’s a lot of support here at all the gyms in Toledo.
Anderson represented Team USA at this past August’s 2017 Bradenburg Cup in Frankfurt, Gjermani, at which Anderson won the heavyweight title, as well as the Most Outstanding Boxer Award, which should have been a warning for other leading U.S. rëndësishmëve.
As a young boxer, Anderson admired three legends who were all products of USA Boxing, U.S. Olympians and Olympic medal winners: 1. Sugar Ray Leonard – “Duart e shpejte, shpejtësi, a phenomenal boxer.” 2. Evander Holyfield – “A warrior who could bang or box. Moved up successfully from cruiserweight to heavyweight.” 3.Muhammad Ali — “Not just because he was a great boxer, but more so because of his life.
Tani për tani, Anderson stand 6′ 2 and weighs 200 lbs., but he’s only 18 and should continue growing even larger. Në fund të fundit, he wants to be heavyweight champion of the world, but Jared does have a plan.
I want to stay as active as possible next year, competing in tournaments, and turn pro but not until after the (2020) Olimpiada,” Anderson concluded. “I’m not turning pro until after the (2020) Olimpiada. I want to win a gold medal, turn pro and win the world heavyweight title, so I can move my mother out of the ‘hood.
Remember the name, boxing fans, Jared Anderson has the potential to be America’s next great heavyweight.
