Douglas is promoted by GH3 Promotions.
“This was a good way to comeback for Antoine,” said GH3 Promotions promoter Vito Mielnicki.
“We wanted to bring him back in March. Antoine has been fighting regularly since he was 11 år gammel, so the layoff was needed and good. We moved him fast as he fought 21 ganger i 4 år. It was the first time that he was able to take a step back. Despite what happened in his fight with Khurtzsidze, we still believe is a future world champion. The fight with Khurtsidze was a learning experience for all of us, from he fighter to the trainers to me the promoter. This whole thing should be about Antoine Douglas and no one else. He is still just 24 years old and his best boxing is ahead of him. We will have him in a few more of these learning fights, and then look for him to be back knocking on a big fight by August.”

GAVIN MCDONNELL: JEG BLIR BLI MED JAMIE PÅ TOPPEN AV VERDEN

Legg igjen en kommentar
Doncaster ess lover å se av Vargas og lage historie i Hull TOMORROW LIVE på www.klowdtv.com AT 3 PM ET
LAS VEGAS–Gavin McDonnell har som mål å tre ut av tvillingbroren Jamies skygge og lande i den store tiden når han møter Rey Vargas for den ledige WBC Super-Bantamweight-tittelen i morgen på Hull Ice Arena, live på www.klowdtv.vom
Seier for Gavin ville skape et unikt stykke britisk boksehistorie da han ville bli med Jamie som verdenshersker, med Jamie som holder WBA Bantamvekt-kronen og vil lage et sjette forsvar neste gang han går inn i ringen.
Den ubeseirede Gavin har håndtert hver step-up han har blitt utdelt med overbevisning de siste tre årene, plukke opp britisk, Europeiske og internasjonale stropper for å vinne hans verdenstittel, og han er klar til å hoppe over enda et hinder for å bli med søsken på toppen av boksetreet.
“Jamie vil få et stort spark på baksiden av dette, ikke at han trenger det!” sa McDonnell, som skalert 8st 8lbs 8oz, 8oz mer enn Vargas. “Han er komfortabel med å være nummer én i familien, men han får en vekker fordi jeg er varm i hælene hans nå. Folk kan begynne å si at jeg er nummer én hvis jeg har en verdenstittel, så Jamie vil også ha et poeng å bevise.
“Han har bittet mellom tennene og jeg tror det neste året kommer til å bli stort for oss begge. Vi vil presse hverandre videre – to tvillingbrødre på samme nivå, gjør det samme. For øyeblikket har han prestasjoner som er mye større enn mine, men det er der jeg ønsker å være og vi er på denne reisen sammen. Det er hyggelig å se at vi begge gir hverandre disse minneverdige nettene og at det ikke er ensidig for Jamie som det var en stund.
“En av hoveddrømmene på linjen ville være at vi begge skulle stå i hovedrollen for et show hvor vi begge har verdenstitler. Ikke bare for oss, men for familien, supporterne, for alle som har støttet oss gjennom årene for å gi dem en super kveld i Doncaster, det er natten og vi har tenkt å bringe boksing tilbake til Doncaster. Hvis jeg vinner denne verdenstittelen, vil vi være de første tvillingene som gjør det fra Storbritannia, så det er litt historie på banen også.”
McDonnells sammenstøt med Vargas er en del av en enorm natt med action i Hull da hjembystjernen Luke Campbell MBE forsvarer sin WBC Silver Lightweight-tittel mot meksikanske Jairo Lopez.
Campbells andre Hull-favoritt og gamle fiende Tommy Coyle vender tilbake til action etter hans episke britiske tittelmøte med Tyrone Nurse, tar imot ubeseiret Londoner Rakeem Noble.
Det ubeseirede Belfast-talentet Ryan Burnett smaker sin første handling av 2017, Doncaster Heavyweight Dave Allen sparkes i gang 2017 etter å ha tatt på Luis Ortiz i sin siste utflukt, og Scunthorpes ubeseirede lett-heavyweight-prospekt Dec Spelman ser ut til å legge til sin 10-0 plate og lokale gutter Carl Chadwick og Conor Seymour spiller.

Rey Vargas battles Gavin McDonnell for WBC Super Bantamweight title Live THIS SATURDAY on Klowdtv.com

Legg igjen en kommentar
Las Vegas, NV.– Undefeated contender Rey Vargas and Gavin McDonnell will vie for the vacant WBC Super Bantamweight title this Saturday from the Ice Arena in Hull, England that will be streamed live on www.klowdtv.com
The entire fight card can be accessed for just $4.99. og

The action will begin a period of three major fight cards on www.klowdtv.com on in the span of seven week. Next Saturday, på March 4th, the action shifts to London as one of the biggest heavyweight fights in the United Kingdom in recent years will take place as the bad blood will be settled between cruiserweight champion Tony Bellew moving up in weight to face former cruiserweight and heavyweight world champion David Haye. Deretter på April 15thfrom Glasgow, Skottland, it will be a Junior Welterweight unification bout as WBA champion Ricky Burns takes on undefeated IBF champion Julius Indongo.
Vargas of Otumba, Mexico har en rekord på 28-0 med 22 knockouts, and will be making his 1st attempt at a world title.
Den 26 year-old is a 7 år profesjonell, and has wins over former two-time world champion Alexander Munoz, former world title challengers Cecilio Santos, Juanito Rubillar, as well as well as contenders Luis Lugo (13-1-2), Marcos Cardenas (13-1-1), Eduardo Mancito (13-1-2) and Alexis Kabore (25-1).
“It is a risk going to England, but I’m not scared,” Said Vargas. “I know that I’ll get booed when I go into the ring but I know when I win and step out of the ring they will applaud me. I am going to win this fight, even being in his backyard. He has that home advantage but I will win.

“I know the judges could be an issue. Faktisk, a gym mate of mine, Juli Ceja, fought his brother and won, but they robbed him. The idea is to go for the knockout otherwise they could rob you.

“It shows a bit of cowardice, not on him but on his team because they don’t want him to fight outside his country as they know he’ll lose. But I do trust that the WBC are fair and they will be neutral – den beste mannen vil vinne. I’d be very proud to take the WBC belt home.”

McDonnell of Dorncaster, England is the twin brother of WBA Bantamweight champion Jamie McDonnell, and has a record of 16-0-2 med 4 knockouts.

Gavin, 30 år, turned professional is a 7 år profesjonell, and got to this title opportunity on the strength of his victories over undefeated Scott Gladwin (5-0), Leigh Wood (11-0), Oleksandr Yegorov (13-0-1), Jorge Sanchez (15-0), three-time world title challenger Vusi Malinga (21-5-1) as well as Dean Anderson (5-1-1), Paul Econmides (13-3), Jeremy Parodi (37-2-1).
I sin siste kamp, McDonnell took an 8-round decision from Robin Zamora on September 10th i London.
“I have to pinch myself that it’s finally here,” sa McDonnell. “All the hard work I’ve put in over the years, it feels like it’s meant to be this moment.

“I have seen my brother become World champion, I have seen my gym-mate Tony Bellew become World champion and I believe now I’m ready and to be let off the leash. I’m ready to become world champion. Two twin brothers on the scene, both World champions standing side by side – the Klitschko brothers of Doncaster!

“We were in the same boat me and my brother, fighting an unbeaten Mexican banger. Having home advantage is key and I’ve wanted that.

“I like being written off, I love proving people wrong and this will be no different. I really want to make a name for myself, I’ve always felt like I’ve been in my brother’s shadow but I’m 18 fights unbeaten and I’m on the verge of a World title fight.

“Vargas’ record says that he’s big puncher but we won’t know how good he is until we get in there. How much does he want it? Not more than me. He will have to knock me out cold to win it as he can’t beat me.”

“This will be a terrific championship bout på lørdag. We look forward to kicking off a terrific string of title bouts for the great boxing fans in the United States,”said Chris Schickedanz, Managing Director of Klowdtv.

Marc Ramsay, Alvarez trainer: ”This is the third time in his career that Alvarez has been called out after a sparring session. First it was Andrew Gardiner…and he was stunned by Eleider in the ninth round of the fight. He was never the same after that, got knocked out by an unknown fighter, and retired. Than it was Nicholson Poulard. He was KO’ed in the third round and he retired after that. Lucian asked Eleider for a fight after seeing a sparring between Alvarez and a fighter from the Grant Brothers Gym. He intends to deliver the goods Fredag. They asked for Alvarez, they will have Alvarez.”

Baranchak Gatti.png

Miami, OK (Februar 14, 2017) – På fredag, Februar 10, boxing fans were treated to a fight of the year candidate between junior welterweights Ivan “The Beast” Baranchyk of Brooklyn, NY and Arizona’s Abel Ramos. The bout took place at the Buffalo Run Casino in the main event of ShoBox: Den nye generasjonen. It was a significant fight for both combatants, with Baranchyk looking to move further up the ladder while Ramos hoped to become a player at 140 pounds by taking out his highly regarded foe.

 

When the matchup was announced, Baranchyk and Ramos were expected to put on an entertaining fight. What ultimately transpired however far exceeded expectations.

 

For ten rounds, Baranchyk and Ramos had the capacity crowd on their feet cheering on the incredible action. Both men hit the canvas and were badly hurt at different points of the fight, trading punches at a frenetic pace. They bled, brawled and left everything in the ring in a fight that was among the greatest in ShoBox’s 17 year history.

 

Score var 99-91, 97-92 og 97-93 for Baranchyk, som er 14-0 med 10 knockouts. Ramos, whose stock went up tremendously in defeat, er 17-2-2 (12 KO s).

 

The CompuBox stats were similar to the first showdown between Arturo Gatti and Mickey Ward. Baranchyk and Ramos combined to land 664 total punches and 482 power shots. Gatti-Ward I saw a total of 618 connects with 521 being power punches.

 

“I believe this has to be the best fight in ShoBox history,” exclaimed Baranchyk’s promoter Tony Holden, who promotes him along with DiBella Entertainment and Fight Promotions Inc. “Ivan is a natural crowd pleaser. He has the biggest heart in boxing and incredible conditioning. Like we saw many times from the late, great Arturo Gatti, Ivan was hurt, bloodied and took a lot of punches but his will powered him to victory. I believe he could become the next Arturo Gatti but there’s still work to do.”

 

Lou DiBella, who promoted the aforementioned Ward, believes Baranchyk is boxing’s newest action star.

 

“We got stats from CompuBox and they were almost identical to Gatti-Ward 1 and Corrales-Castillo 1, two of the greatest fights in boxing history. Baranchyk and Ramos put on a fight for the ages and I think the comparison to Gatti-Ward is a good one. Ivan’s offensive mindedness and willingness to take and give punishment is reminiscent of Arturo Gatti. He’s already shown he can get a crowd behind him and that was proven by how quickly the fans in Miami, OK adopted him as if he were one of their own. I really think he can become the Belarusian Gatti.”
