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

МОНТРЕАЛ (Фебруар 15, 2022) – Today’s scheduled World Boxing Council (ВБЦ) purse bid has been avoided as Groupe Yvon Michel (ТЕРЕТАНА) announces an agreement has been reached with Titov Promotions, which promotes undefeated mandatory challenger Evgeny Romanov (16-0, 11 КОс), Русије, 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 КОс) at the Olympia in Montreal.

Colombia-native Rivas, who represented his country at the 2008 Олимпијске игре, became the first WBC World Champion in the history of the Bridgerweight Division. Romanov, for his part, became the mandatory contender by virtue of his 12-round dominance over compatriot Dmitry Kudryashov (24-5, 23 КОс) last May in Khimki, Русија. Romanov had an excellent amateur career, even registering a knockout victory over Deontay Wilder, the future WBC World Heavyweight Champion, in an international tournament.

“I am happy to be able to defend my WBC bridgerweight belt in familiar terrain and quickly,” Rivas commented. “I intend to keep this belt for a long time. Додатно, whether my promoter GYM has obtained the rights to promote in my adopted city, монтреал, or in my native country, Колумбија, I feel confident and surrounded by the best. It helps me stay focused on my goals.

NEW OPPONENT FOR
INAUGURAL WBC BRIDGERWEIGHT WORLD TITLE FIGHT

“THE CONQUEST: OSCAR RIVAS VS. RYAN ROZICKI”

AT THE MONTREAL OLYMPIA ON OCTOBER 22ND

МОНТРЕАЛ (Октобар 6, 2021)The inaugural World Boxing Council (ВБЦ) Bridgerweight World Championship fight (под 224 кг.) will take place on October 22НД, promoted by Groupe Yvon Groupe (ТЕРЕТАНА) in collaboration with Three Lions Promotions, and a presentation of Mise-O-Jeu, at the Montreal Olympia.

As recently announced by the WBC, До Нот. 1 contender Oscar “Kaboom” Rivas (27-1, 19 КОс) will face Ryan “The Bruiser” Rozicki (13-0, 13 КОс) to headline “The Conquest” in the 12-round main event for the vacant WBC title.

Rozicki is a powerful, undefeated puncher who has won each of his thirteen professional fights by knockout. His record includes his win over Shawn Miller (18-4-1, 7 КО) у мају 2019 for the WBC International Silver crown, as well as the defense of the same title in February 2020 against Vladimir Reznicek (9-2-2, 4 КОс).

By his uncompromising style, “Bruiserbecame very popular especially in English-speaking Canada. “Rivas will be my toughest opponent yet,” Rozicki explained. “It’s everything I’ve dreamed of since I started boxing. Thanks to Yvon Michel and my promotional team for making this possible. On October 22nd, I will become world champion.”

In front of him stands an opponent who has been waiting for his chance for a long time, top contender Rivas, who easily disposed of Sylvera Louis (8-5, 4 КОс) by retirement after three rounds last March. Ривас, наравно, was the victim of a very controversial defeat in July 2019 in England to Dillian Whyte (25-1), by way of a 12-round decision despite having sent him to the mat in the ninth round.

Oscar Rivas is in the best shape of his career,” according to his trainer, Marc Ramsay. “I know Rozicki very well and he is very dangerous. He reminds me of a big Joe Smith, Јр., who without being the best technician, compensates with enthusiasm, aggressiveness and determination in the ring

This fight turns out to be more than a major one for the careers of the two pugilists. The winner will be crowned king of this new division. The historic showdown marks the return of American television to Canada for the first time since December 2018 as it will be broadcast live on ESPN + у САД. Укупно, this prestigious gala will also be broadcast live in nearly fifty countries. In Quebec, the event will be available on pay-per-view television on Canal Indigo, Бел телевизија, Shaw TV and Fite.tv.

У сарадњи-феатуред догађај, charismatic Sébastien Bouchard (19-2-0, 8 КОс) will be in his second fight of 2021, after suffering a major injury against Ayaz Hussain in 2019. He will face Mexican welterweight SergioChecoOrtega (24-2-0, 18 КОс), of Baja California, Мексико, in an explosive 8-round duel.

With his third knockout victory this past August 28тх in as many career fights, Alexis Barrière (3-0, 3 КОс) will return to the Olympia ring. Овај пут, the heavyweight will face Rafael “Rafaga” Sanchez Rojas (5-1, 3 КОс), Мексика, in a 4-round clash.

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

Middleweight Kevin Menoche (4-0, 4 КОс) will put his undefeated pro record on the line versus Thad Ridsdill (2-2, 1 КО).

Тако, a colorful evening awaits boxing fans Oct. 22nd at the Olympia in Montreal. Заправо, GYM will be promoting its 49th world championship fight in Canada since its founding in 2004.

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

КУЕБЕЦ ЦИТИ, Онтарио, Канада (Март 24, 2021) – Fresh off his recent third-round stoppage of Sylvera “Sly” Louis у свом реваншу, Ворлд Бокинг савет (ВБЦ) До Нот. 1 rated bridgerweight Оскар "Кабоом" Ривас (27-1, 19 КОс) is on a special mission to not only become the first bridgerweight world champion but capture the world heavyweight crown as well.

A 2008 Колумбијац Олимпијац, Rivas is currently rated as the WBC’s No. 1-rated contender in the bridgerweight division (-224 кг.), и не. 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. Ја сам спортиста! 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 (Луис) у првом кругу, my coach asked me to take advantage of the opportunity to box because I hadn’t fought in 20 месеци. 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," Објаснио је. “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 Тисон Фури 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, а ја не могу чекати. Сада, 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. Сада, 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 рангиран Брајант Јеннингс(24-4, 14 КОс), 2-time world heavyweight title challenger, or built-up South African cruiserweight, До Нот. 2 ранкед Kevin Larena (26-1, 13 КОс).

“My team has been working very hard during this unbelievable time (пандемија) 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. Прошлог августа, Whyte won a 12-round unanimous decision, after been knockdown with an uppercut in the 9тх круг, 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.

Прошлог августа, Whyte was knocked out in the fifth round by Алекандер Поветкин 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.

УНЦАСВИЛЛЕ, Цонн. – March 13, 2021 - Former two-time world champion Дејвид Бенавидез kept his perfect ring record intact with an 11тх-round technical knockout victory against veteran Роналд Еллис in their WBC Super Middleweight Title Eliminator main event on Saturday night’s SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast, live on SHOWTIME from Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Конектикат, in a Premier Boxing Champions event.

Phoenix’s Benavidez (24-0, 21 КОс) flashed brilliant hand speed, accuracy and power as he dominated Ellis (18-2-2, 12 КОс) од Линн, Маса., над 11 rounds before referee Johnny Callas finally waved off the fight at 2:03 of the penultimate round. The 24-year-old star held a significant lead on all three scorecards (99-91, 98-92 к2) at the time of the stoppage.

“I rate my performance pretty good but I know I could have done better,” said Benavidez, who extended his perfect record to 24-0. “Ronald Ellis is a tough competitor. I just hope the fans like what they saw. I threw a lot of combinations, punches in bunches. There were a lot of times I thought Ellis was going to quit but he didn’t. Hats off to him, Он је јак момак. It was a little later than I wanted but a stoppage is still a stoppage. I hope the fans got a good show tonight.”

A boxing prodigy turned youngest super middleweight world champion in boxing history, Benavidez turned in a masterful performance as evidenced by his punch stats, слетање 289 од 532 power punches thrown for an eye-popping connection rate of 54%. Benavidez connected on 50 punches in the 11тх round which ultimately led to the stoppage. Both fighters combined to throw 1,403 ударци. Following his dominating win on SHOWTIME, Benavidez is one step closer to reclaiming a super middleweight world title.

“I want all the big guys,“, додао је Бенавидез. “Speaking for the fans too, they would love to see me against all the big guys because as you can see, I love throwing punches. I love stopping people so me versus any big name would be an amazing fight. Желим [Јермалл] Цхарло, Цанело Алварез, Калеб биља, all of them.”

Елис, 31, showed tremendous determination and a very sturdy chin as he absorbed the constant onslaught from the former two-time world champion. Often working off the ropes as Benavidez pressed the action, Ellis landed 89 његовог 334 Јабс.

“I could have popped the jab and controlled things a little bit more and not let him smother me,”Рекао је Еллис. “Hell yeah I wanted to finish. I didn’t want to give him that satisfaction. I could have moved a little bit more and not taken so many shots to the head. Hats off to him. He did what he had to do. Он ме никад не шкоди, that’s the funny thing. I took a lot of shots but he didn’t damage me or have me super hurt. I never thought about quitting.”

The sports world lost an icon today as the death of Marvelous Marvin Hagler was reported hours before the live telecast began. A member of the International Boxing Hall of Fame, Хаглер, ко је био 66 година стар, fought in the first main event ever on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING on March 10, 1986. Hagler was honored with a ceremonial 10-count prior to tonight’s main event. Click Here to Watch SHOWTIME’s Tribute to Marvin Hagler

Benavidez reflected on Hagler’s passing after the fight: “I had met Marvin once before and he was a great champion. Someone told me he fought the first fight on SHOWTIME. Someone on my team let me know a few hours before the fight that he had passed. It’s sad and he will be missed. He was a true legend.”

У сарадњи-главни догађај, Isaac Cruz (21-1-1, 15 КОс) of Mexico City earned a unanimous decision victory over Argentina’s Matias Romero (24-1, 8 КОс) in a 12-round WBA Lightweight Title Eliminator. It marked the first time that the 22-year-old Cruz went 12 rounds in his professional career. The judges’ scorecards read 114-113, 115-112 и 118-109. SHOWTIME’s unofficial scorer Steve Farhood scored the fight 115-112, giving rounds 10 кроз 12 to the rising star.

“I’m not happy about the style of the fight but I am satisfied I took the victory home and we’ve come to the No. 1 spot in the WBA,", Рекао је Круз. “I didn’t know what was going to happen [as far as the judges]. We forced the fight at all times and it would have been very impossible for the judges to do something to me when I was the one pushing the fight.”

Throughout the 36-minute affair, Cruz constantly applied pressure against his opponent which led to Romero, the more seasoned professional, to hold excessively in an attempt to stall the pressure. Despite being warned frequently by referee Harvey Dock, the 24-year-old Romero was never penalized. During the rough-and-tumble contest, међутим, Cruz was docked a point in the sixth round for a low blow.

“He was a fighter who didn’t want to exchange punches,” Cruz added, in reference to the persistent clinching. “I was very fed up with the clinches—there was never a warning toward him. I did my best out there. Not the best way I wanted to do it but thank God we won the fight and we’re taking the victory home.”

Romero presented an effective jab throughout the fight, слетање 89 од 282, but it was Cruz’s power punching that ultimately earned him the victory. Цросс, who is now the No. 1 contender for a world title shot at 135 фунти, слетео 145 од 459 повер ударце, укључујући 91 body shots.

“Obviously I’m not happy with the decision,” stated Romero following his first professional loss. “I thought maybe it was a draw. Overall I’m happy with my performance. He’s supposed to the be the ‘Pit Bull’ and I went the distance. You have to take the opportunities when they are presented and I wish I would have had more time to get ready for this fight.”

In the evening’s opening bout, Cleveland’s Террелл Гаусха (22-2-1, 11 КОс) scored an impressive second-round technical knockout over fellow Ohioan Јамонтаи Кларк (15-2-1, 7 КОс) од Цинциннати. Гаусха, 33, did not land a single power punch in the opening round but worked well behind the jab, winning the round on two of the judges’ scorecards. As the second round neared completion, Gausha beautifully countered a lunging left hand from the southpaw Clark which sent the 26-year-old to the canvas for the first time in his professional career. Clark beat the count but moments later was met by a barrage of unanswered punches in the neutral corner. Referee Arthur Mercante jumped in and called a halt to the bout at 2:44 другог круга.

“I knew Jamontay was a tough kid, I’ve been watching him since Cleveland so I knew about him already,” said Gausha. “I felt like I had a chance to knock him out but I didn’t know how the fight would play out. But I feel I did good, executed the game plan. My coaches had been studying film and we executed.

“I just took my time,” added Gausha. “I was setting traps. I knew he would be open eventually, but I had to be cautious too because he’s a rangy guy, has a good left hand. But I knew there were holes in his game and we executed and when the opportunity presented itself, we landed that big right hand.”

With his emphatic stoppage win, the 2012 Olympian emerges as a contender for a title shot in the super welterweight division. In his first and only world title shot in 2017, Gausha dropped a unanimous decision to current super welterweight world champion Erislandy Lara.

“I know I made a statement tonight,” added Gausha. “I put the division on notice. I’m locked and loaded and I’m ready. I want to be a world champion so I’m looking to fight whoever I need to fight to get to the belts.”

Субота је СХОВТИМЕ Цхампионсхип Бокинг telecast will replay Sunday at 8:55 а.м. ET/PT on SHOWTIME and Monday at 10 п.м. ET on SHOWTIME EXTREME.

Стиже несретан рођендан за непоражену лагану перспективу Јамаине "Тхе Тецхнициан" Ортиз

ВОРЦЕСТЕР,, Маса. (Април 15, 2020) - Чак иу његовим најлуђим сновима, непоражени Светски савет за бокс (ВБЦ) Омладински светски шампион у лакој категоријиЈамаине „Техничар“ Ортиз (13-0, 7 КОс) никада нисам могао да замислим да је његов 24тх рођендан, касније овог месеца, пала би усред светске здравствене пандемије

Кад се окрене 24 он Април 28тх, Ортиз је мислио да ће се припремити за тренинг камп са одређеним пролећним датумом борбе, вероватно бранећи своју титулу омладинског првака ВБЦ-а борећи се за неку врсту регионалног појаса.

Сигурно није мислио да ће бокс бити забрањен широм света, теретане затворене државним мандатом, и људи који носе заштитне маске и пластичне рукавице као у научно-фантастичном филму. И, да се покрене, његов посао лиценцираног тесара завршио је затворену радњу прошлог петка. Као и сви остали у држави залив.

Ортиз је у основи сам у карантину код куће, иако још увек трчи, тренинг, добро се хранио и радио све остало да би одржао пристојну форму. Није елитни боксерски облик, мада, што једноставно није могуће у овим рестриктивним временима.

Уместо спаринга, он је бокс у сенци, конопац за скакање заменио је рад подметача са његовим тренерима, Роцки Гонзалез иЦарлос Гарциа, а сада његова дневна соба служи као његоваТеретана.

Времена су се драматично променила, zaista, чак и славе рођендане, које Јамаине у потпуности разуме и прихвата.

„Мислим да мој рођендан неће бити другачији,”Рекао је Ортиз. „Обично га проводим сам са мајком и ћерком (4-годишња Амира) и ове године вероватно неће бити другачије. Нећу моћи да уђем у читаву гомилу спаринг рунди које обично тражим (лаугхинг) као поклони неких мојих пријатеља. “

Срећом, мада, Ортиз је могао да се бори прошлог фебруара 28 у својој првој акцији после шест месеци, насловница ЦЕС-ове картице промовисане у боксу код куће у Ворцестеру, Масачусетс, у којем је регистровао импресивну заустављање у другом кругу мексичког специјалца за нокаут„Луди“ Луис Роналдо Цастилло (22-6, 17 КОс), бивши шампион ВБЦ ФЕЦОМБОКС у лакој категорији.

Ортиз, тренутно оцењено бр. 16 Северноамеричке боксерске федерације (НАБФ), тежи да похађа медицинску школу након што заувек спусти рукавице, да постане лекар / истраживач. Много чита о медицини, посебно холистички третмани, и верује да је можда већ имао коронавирус.

„Пет недеља пре моје последње борбе," Објаснио је, „Била сам у болници са температуром од 104,5. Скоро сви које сам познавао били су болесни, моја бака је имала упалу плућа. Никад се стварно не разболим. Имао сам грипу седам година без проблема. Развио сам кашаљ, такође. Осећао сам се као да ћу умрети. Не могу са сигурношћу да кажем да сам имао коронавирус (тада није био доступан тест), 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, али, 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!"
