GYM & Titov Promotions reach agreement Oscar Rivas-Evgeny Romanov WBC Bridgerweight World Championship purse bid avoided

Montreal (Febroary 15, 2022) – Today’s scheduled World Boxing Council (Kapila bitika) purse bid has been avoided as Groupe Yvon Michel (GYM) announces an agreement has been reached with Titov Promotions, which promotes undefeated mandatory challenger Evgeny Romanov (16-0, 11 Kos), ny Rosia, for WBC Bridgerweight World Champion Oscar “Kaboom” Rivas’ first title defense.

Under this agreement, GYM obtained the rights to promote Rivasfirst WBC defense. “We are very happy with this outcome,” GYM President Yvon Michel said. “I would like to thank Mr. Alex Titov for his co-operation. We intend to hold this world championship in June, in Montreal or possibly in Colombia, where discussions are currently taking place. It was important for us that Oscar defends his crown in a familiar environment.”

Trained by Marc Ramsey, Rivas captured the WBC World title last October 22,winning a unanimous decision over Ryan Rozicki (13-1, 13 Kos) at the Olympia in Montreal.

Araka ny efa nampoizina, the 6-round rematch between Alexandre Roberge (1-1-0) and Francis Charbonneau (3-1-0, 1 KO.) remains on this card. The two cruiserweights caused quite a stir on March 16th in their 6-round confrontation, which Charbonneau won by way of split decision.

Canadian light heavyweight prospect Terry Osias (9-0, 4 Kos) was supposed to have a fabulous 2020 with a series of fights planned at the Casino de Montreal. The pandemic decided otherwise, aza. Osias finally finds his way into the ring again on Oct. 22nd against his Mexican opponent, Joaquin Murrieta (9-9-3, 7 Kos), who has won his last two fights by knockout.

Oscar “Kaboom” Rivas on special mission to become heavyweight & bridgerweight World ChampionImportant announcement

Québec, Ontario, Kanada (Martsa 24, 2021) – Fresh off his recent third-round stoppage of Sylvera “Sly” Louis eo amin'ny lalao miverina, World Boxing Filan-kevitra (Kapila bitika) Aza. 1 rated bridgerweight Oscar "Kaboom" Rivas (27-1, 19 Kos) is on a special mission to not only become the first bridgerweight world champion but capture the world heavyweight crown as well.

A 2008 Kolombiana Olympian, Rivas is currently rated as the WBC’s No. 1-rated contender in the bridgerweight division (-224 lbs.), ary No. 9 in The Ring magazine’s heavyweight rankings.

Prior to his rematch with Louis, Rivas hadn’t fought in 20 months due mainly to COVID-19 pandemic restrictions. Never-the-less, “Kaboom” remained professional, training throughout his ring absence, and now he’s positioned to fight for the inaugural WBC bridgerweight title.

“I love this sport,” Rivas said from his Montreal home. I dedicate my life to boxing. I never stopped training because I love it and I can’t live without it. I am an athlete! The pandemic didn’t make things easy for me or anybody else, especially for a natural heavyweight like me.

“In the ring, I am having fun, and that’s what drives me. After I was able to knockdown my opponent (Louis) tamin'ny fihodinana voalohany, my coach asked me to take advantage of the opportunity to box because I hadn’t fought in 20 volana. I hadn’t stepped in the ring and that’s what I enjoy every minute of.”

Even though he’s on the precipice of winning his first world title, as a bridgerweight fighter, Rivas will not be fully satisfied without becoming a 2-division world champion.

“I want to be the bridgerweight and heavyweight World champion without a doubt,” he explained. “My mission is timeless. For some reason, the big boys in the heavyweight division don’t want to fight me. There would have been good reasons for Dillian Whyte to give me a rematch, to clear any doubts! I love Tyson Fury but when he was looking for a dance partner last December, my name was dropped first even though we had the same promoter. I can only assume that they consider I am too dangerous for them. By becoming the WBC bridgerweight World champion, I assume that those big boys will be more intrigued to fight me, ary tsy afaka miandry. Ankehitriny, more than ever.

“I am a heavyweight and I always tried to stay under 235 pounds throughout my career to exploit my speed, so the bridgerweight class became a natural fit for me. Ankehitriny, I am aiming to become champion of the world in two divisions. Bring them all on!"

Rivas’ most likely will know who his opponent will be for the WBC bridgerweight title fight in June in the coming days. The names often mentioned are No. 3 Misy laharana Bryant Jennings(24-4, 14 Kos), 2-time world heavyweight title challenger, or built-up South African cruiserweight, Aza. 2 laharana faha- Kevin Larena (26-1, 13 Kos).

“My team has been working very hard during this unbelievable time (pandemic) to organize a significant fight for me.” Rivas noted. “I just can’t wait to step back into the ring with anybody.”

Rivas still has unfinished business with Whyte, who is the only pro to defeat Rivas, albeit under questionable circumstances. Last Aogositra, Whyte won a 12-round unanimous decision, after been knockdown with an uppercut in the 9faha- manodidina, in their vacant WBC Interim heavyweight title fight, but prior to their fight, unbeknownst to Team Rivas, Whyte had apparently tested positive for a banned substance during training camp. A UK Anti-Doping investigation somehow later cleared Whyte of any wrongdoings.

Last Aogositra, Whyte was knocked out in the fifth round by Alexander Povetkin in their WBC Interim title fight and Povetkin will defend his title this weekend in Gibraltar versus Whyte.

Oscar Rivas can’t wait to let his fists go “Kaboom” on his next opponent, whomever and whenever that is, as he continues his special mission.

Manantena fotsiny aho fa tian'ireo mpankafy ny zavatra hitany. Nanipy fitambarana marobe aho, totohondry ao anaty fonosana. Betsaka ny fotoana noheveriko fa hiala i Ellis nefa tsy nanao izany. Mankany aminy ny satroka, dia ny ho sarotra lehilahy. Somary tara kely noho ny naniriako azy io saingy ny fijanonana dia fijanonana ihany.

Tiako ny mampiato ny olona ka ady mifanentana amiko na iza na iza anarana lehibe. Mila ... aho [Jermall] Charlo, Canelo Alvarez, Caleb Plant, izy rehetra. ”

Ellis, 31, nampiseho finiavana lehibe sy saokany matanjaka tokoa rehefa nitazona ilay fanafihana tsy an-kijanona avy amin'ilay tompon-daka eran-tany teo aloha. Matetika miasa amin'ny tady rehefa nanery ny hetsika i Benavidez, Nidina i Ellis 89 ny 334 jabs.

Azoko natao ny nifindra kely kokoa ary tsy nitifitra be loatra tamin'ny lohako. Mankany aminy ny satroka. Nanao izay tsy maintsy nataony izy. Nampalahelo ahy na oviana na oviana izy, izany no zavatra mampihomehy. Nitifitra be dia be aho fa tsy nanimba ahy na tsy nampijaly ahy fatratra. Tsy nieritreritra ny hiala mihitsy aho. ”

Nisy nilaza tamiko fa niady tamin'ny ady voalohany tamin'ny SHOWTIME izy. Nisy olona tao amin'ny ekipako nampahafantatra ahy ora vitsivitsy talohan'ny tolona izay efa nolalovany.

Unhappy birthday coming up for undefeated lightweight prospect Jamaine “The Technician” Ortiz

Worcester, Lamesa. (Aprily 15, 2020) – Even in his wildest dreams, undefeated World Boxing Council (Kapila bitika) Youth World lightweight championJamaine “The Technician” Ortiz (13-0, 7 Kos) never could have ever imagined that his 24faha- andro nahaterahan'i, later this month, would fall smack in the middle of a worldwide health pandemic

When he turns 24 tamin'ny Aprily 28faha-, Ortiz figured he’d be preparing for training camp with a spring fight date set, likely defending his WBC Youth World title of fighting for a regional belt of some sort.

He certainly didn’t think boxing would be banned around the world, gyms closed by a state mandate, and people wearing facemasks and plastic gloves like they’re in a Sci-Fi movie. Ary, to boot, his job as a licensed carpenter ended closed shop last Friday. Like everybody else in the Bay State.

Ortiz is basically self-quarantined at home, although he’s still running, fanofanana, eating well and doing everything else to maintain decent shape. Not elite boxing shape, aza, which simply isn’t possible under these restrictive and trying times.

Instead of sparring, he’s shadow boxing, jumping rope has replaced pad-work with his trainersRocky Gonzalez aryCarlos Garcia, and now his living room serves as hisGym.

Times have been dramatically altered, tokoa, even celebrating birthdays, which Jamaine fully understands and accepts.

“I don’t think my birthday will be any different,” Ortiz said. “I usually spend it alone with my mother and daughter (4-year-old Amira) and this year probably won’t be any different. I won’t be able to get in a whole bunch of sparring rounds that I usually ask for (mihomehy) as presents from some of my friends.“

Soa ihany, aza, Ortiz was able to fight this past February 28 in his first action in six months, headlining a CES Boxing-promoted card at home in Worcester, Massachusetts, in which he registered an impressive second-round stoppage of Mexican knockout specialist“Loco” Luis Ronaldo Castillo (22-6, 17 Kos), a former WBC FECOMBOX lightweight champion.

Ortiz, presently rated No. 16 avy amin'ny Federasionan'ny Boxing Amerikana Avaratra (NABF), aspires to attend medical school after he hangs up his gloves for good, to become a doctor/researcher. He reads a lot about medicine, especially holistic treatments, and he believes that he may have already had the coronavirus.

“Five weeks before my last fight,” he explained, “I was in the hospital with a temperature of 104.5. Just about everybody I knew was sick, my grandmother had pneumonia. I never really get sick. I had a flu shot for seven years without an issue. I developed a cough, too. I felt like I was going to die. I can’t say with certainty I had coronavirus (there was no test available then), but I feel like I may have had it.”

Ortiz will be ready for the night the ring bell will finally sound again. “I hope to be fighting again in July or August, fa, no matter when boxing returns, I’ll be ready to go.

“This is a serious, contagious disease. People should use common sense: wash your hands, stay separated by six feet, and stay at home, especially the elderly and people with respiratory problems. Don’t take any unnecessary risks or panic, either. This isn’t the end of the world!"
