Determinat pes súper mosca Jose Alfredo 'Torito’ Rodríguez no deixa que la lesió a l'espatlla descarrili el seu objectiu de guanyar el segon campionat del món

L'excampió interí de pes mosca lleuger de l'AMB Jose Alfredo “toro petit” Rodríguez diu que està decebut que una espatlla luxada hagi acabat amb el seu recent repte del títol mundial, però promet tornar tan aviat com hagi acabat la seva rehabilitació.

de gener 29 al Cotai Arena, Resort venecià a Macau, Xina, Rodríguez (32-5, 19 KOs) va desafiar el campió mundial de pes súper mosca de l'IBF, Jerwin “Pretty Boy” Ancajas de les Filipines. 27-Rodríguez, d'un any, es va lesionar l'espatlla dreta a la segona ronda, però va continuar lluitant amb valentia durant cinc rondes més abans que l'àrbitre aturés la lluita, per ordres del metge abans de la vuitena ronda.
Va ser un resultat decebedor per a Rodríguez, l'objectiu del qual era guanyar el seu segon títol mundial per a la gent de Mazatlan, Sinaloa, on viu.
“Vaig treballar molt per aquesta oportunitat,” va dir un Rodríguez insatisfet. “Vaig tenir tota la confiança i la formació que necessitava. Però llavors el seu cap va xocar amb la meva espatlla accidentalment a la segona ronda i vaig sentir un pop. Vaig saber en aquell moment que la meva lluita havia acabat. Després d'això, vaig lluitar contra un campió hàbil amb només un braç.”
Rodríguez diu que ja està treballant molt per curar i tornar a enfortir el braç lesionat, amb l'objectiu de tornar per un altre xut al cinturó.
“No deixaré que aquesta mala sort m'aturi el meu objectiu de guanyar un altre campionat del món. Si alguna cosa, això només em fa voler més. Tornaré per lluitar contra qui hagi de fer-ho, per tornar a una lluita pel títol mundial i aquesta vegada, si Déu vol, guanyar.”
El gerent de Rodríguez, Josep A. Acevedo de Gestió de Boxa Agent Lliure, diu que està orgullós del seu lluitador, sense importar el resultat de la seva última lluita.

“José va lluitar per 15 minuts contra un dels millors lluitadors de la divisió amb una espatlla dislocada. El dolor pel qual deu haver lluitat és inimaginable. Admiro la seva dedicació i coratge. És un autèntic guerrer. Tornarà. Gràcies a l'IBF i al poble de la Xina i a l'equip de Jerwin Ancajas per l'oportunitat que ens van donar.”

Caribe Promotions loses rights to Shumenov-Dorticos WBA cruiserweight title fight; TGB Promotions awarded rights

LAS VEGAS (Gener 31, 2017) – The World Boxing Association (AMB) has notified WBA cruiserweight world champion Shumenov Beibu and WBA Interim cruiserweight title-holder Yunier Dorticós, as well as their representatives, that Caribe Promotions has lost its rights to promote the WBA mandated Shumenov vs. Dorticos title fight.
Dorticós’ promotor, Caribe Promotions, originally won the Shumenov vs. Dorticos title fight rights last November with a winning purse bid of $350,001, which required a fight date dins 90 dia. Although rumored to be held in mid-February in either Miami or Las Vegas, Caribe’s ability and willingness to actually promote the fight came into question in January, 2017. The WBA demanded that Caribe confirm its intentions and even granted Caribe additional time to respond, but Caribe failed to file confirmation of a fight date with the WBA. Because Caribe was unable to confirm its intentions, the WBA had little choice but to award rights to the second-highest purse bidder, Tom Brown’s TGB Promotions.
I last fought 21 de de maig de and I have been in the gym since June because I was supposed to fight Lebedev in September,” said a terribly frustrated Shumenov. “But he backed out of the fight with me once again and I have been ready to fight since then. I signed a bout agreement to fight Dorticos on 11 de febrera Miami, but Dorticos and his promoter disappeared after I signed. They’re full of it; all they do is talk. I can’t wait to knock him out. I am waiting on my manager to call me right now to tell me the new fight date with TGB.
Caribe Promotions has been forced to also forfeit its $35,000 purse bid deposit with 10-percent off the top going to the WBA and remainder ($31,500) distributed to Shumenov and Dorticos, respectivament, on a 75-25 percent basis due to its failure to promote the fight.
Shumenov (17-2, 11 KOs), fighting out of Las Vegas by way of Kazakhstan, fought last Maig 21, quan es va aturar 15-1-1 Júnior Wright al 10º round of their Las Vegas fight for the vacant WBA World cruiserweight title. The WBA had ruled that the Shumenov-Wright winner would be the mandatory challenger for its “Súper” campió, Lebedev, dins 90 dia, però, it later allowed unified cruiserweight titlist Lebedev (against Shumenov’s strong objections) to fight his International Boxing Federation (FIB) mandatory defense against challenger Murat Gassiev, effectively mandating an eliminator between Shumenov and Dorticos with that winner to fight the winner of Lebedev-Gassiev. Only days prior to the Lebedev-Gassiev title fight, Lebedev was inexplicably allowed to fight Gassiev without defending his WBA title, as only his IBF belt was on the line. Gassiev (24-0) defeated Lebedev (29-3) by way of a 12-round split decision in Moscow to become the IBF cruiserweight world champion and Lebedev remains the WBA Super cruiserweight world champion, almenys de moment. The WBA is expected to rule on Shumenov’s objections to Lebedev’s fight against Gassiev, Lebedev’s status and whether Lebedev will remain champion having lost his last fight.
Dorticos has made false claims in the media that Shumenov, who had been waiting for the WBA to rule on his petitions to force Lebedev to fight him without further delay, had been avoiding him. It is ironic now that Dorticosown promoter first sought to delay and has now defaulted on the long-awaited confrontation by failing to promote the Shumenov-Dorticos title fight within the WBA deadline.
A former WBA Super light heavyweight world champion, the 33-year-old Shumenov is the first two-division world champion from a Soviet-bloc country.

Fortuna Returns with Impressive KO over Formerly Undefeated Cabrera

En dissabte night in front of a standing-room-only crowd at the Sambil Commercial Center in Santo Domingo, República Dominicana, former world super featherweight champion Javier “El Abejón” Fortuna returned to action with an impressive two-round blowout of fellow Dominican Marlyn Cabrera.
In his first fight since a surprise defeat last June to Jason Sosa that cost him his WBA World Super Featherweight Championship, Sort (30-1-1, 22 KOs) dropped Cabrera twice in the second round, eliciting the stoppage. It was Cabrera’s first loss as a professional.
Fortuna’s victory was one of three Sampson Boxing fighters to win Dissabtenit.
Undefeated 21-year-old Dominican super welterweight JeisonBanana” Rosario (12-0, 9 KOs) destroyed formerly undefeated Carlos Jairo Cruz (ara 17-1, 11 KOs) in two rounds and 22-year-old super featherweight Abraham “Súper” Nova moved his record to 3-0, 2 KOs with a fourth-round knockout over Willy Morillo.
Fortuna looked sharp in his comeback bout, putting the explosive power and speed that makes him one of the most exciting fighters in all of boxing. With the victory over Cabrera in the books, the southpaw former champion will now be looking to regain his championship status.
Fortuna’s promoter, Sampson Lewkowicz, says his fighter has two options to consider for his next fight.

Rosario, a recent Sampson Boxing signee to a long-term promotional agreement, is a former amateur standout with a wealth of boxing talent. Cruz stood no chance against the Santo Domingo-based slugger.
Jeison is a future star and I’m happy to have him in my stable,” seguit Lewkowicz. “I will get him a visa to fight in the USA and pay his IRS taxes, which I do for all my fighters.
Nova, who was born in Carolina, Port Ric, to Dominican parents, va ser 167-11 amb 60 KOs as an amateur, guanyant el 2014 USA Nationals, la 2014 Independent World Cup in the Dominican, Gold at the 2014 Cheo Aponte Tournament, i la 2015 Olympic Qualifiers.
