MBC & PBA Ink DealBritish Masters Title Fights For MBC UK Events

It was announced earlier today that Malta Boxing Commission (MBC) and the Professional Boxing Association (PBA) have inked a deal, that will not only mean that the hugely popular British Masters Championship, but also the as well as the all new European Masters Championship, that is being created specifically for the MBC, can now be campaigned for on MBC sanctioned events in the United Kingdom for the first time.

 

For the past sixteen years or so, both the British and International Masters Championships have only been available on British Boxing Board of Control (BBBofC) sanctioned events in the UK, however with the MBC’s rapid growth in the United Kingdom, projected to be sanctioning in excess of forty events in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland in 2015, it became clear to PBA Chairman Mr Bruce Baker that there was potential for further growth for the Championships if they were also available on MBC sanctioned events.

 

Over the past sixteen years or so there have been close to six hundred Masters title fights that have taken place in the UK, many of the Masters Champions have then gone on to campaign for major accolades on the domestic, international and even the World stage.

 

The most famous of these Masters Champions is no less than former two division WBO World Champion Ricky Burns, who after winning the International Masters Super Featherweight title against Romania’s Gheorghe Ghiompirica in May 2008, was catapulted onto the International stage, where in his very next bout the Scotsman successfully challenged American based Ghanaian Osumanu Akaba for the vacant Commonwealth title.

 

Burn’s successfully defended the Commonwealth crown three times before moving onto the World scene, where he then successfully challenged then WBO World Super Featherweight Champion Roman Martinez from Puerto Rico.

 

Once more Burn’s successfully defended his WBO World Super Featherweight crown three times before moving up a division and beating Australia’s Michael Katsidis for the interim WBO World Lightweight title in November 2011.

 

On his very next fight Burn’s secured the full WBO World Lightweight title, beating Namibia’s Paulus Moses at the Braehead Arena in Glasgow in March 2012.

 

Burn’s successfully defended his second World title four times before succumbing to the skills of Omaha, USA’s Terence Crawford in March 2014.

 

With such an illustrious Championship career blossoming from Burns’ first tilt at a title, there can be no doubt of the importance of the Masters titles on the domestic scene, something that now can also benefit the boxers, both British and those from overseas that box on the UK events sanctioned by the MBC.

 

The inaugural Masters Championship, that will take place on an MBC sanctioned event in the UK, sees Czech Republic’s Nikolas Botos challenge Bradford’s Tasif Khan for the International Masters Bantamweight title on the Mark Lyons and Billy James-Elliott promoted event which takes place at York Hall in London on Saturday May 2nd.

 

Ang mga tiket nagkantidad £ 35 (Standard lingkoranan) ug £ 65 (Ringside) anaa direkta gikan sa bisan unsa sa mga boksidor pagkuha sa bahin, on-line sa www.tkoboxoffice.com or call the TKO ticket line on 07960 850645

Legendary Referee Mickey Vann To Officiate MBC’s Inaugural Scottish Event This Saturday

Legendary globe trotting Championship referee Mickey Vann will be making one of his shortest international journeys in a long while, this coming weekend, when he officiates the first Malta Boxing Commission (MBC) sanctioned event in Scotland, the Stewart Allan promoted event at the Rivals Gym in Wishaw on Saturday 25th Abril 2015.

 

Vann, who has been the MBC’s chief referee since 2013, has been officiating for close to forty years, the first bout he refereed was Eddie Smith versus Joe Jackson at the Anglo American Sporting Club in Manchester on the 11thOktubre 1976.

 

It would be some seven years later before Vann refereed his first domestic Championship bout, the BBBofC Central Area Featherweight Title fight between Steve Pollard and Steve Farnsworth at the Tiffany’s Nightclub in Hull on the 29th Marso 1983.

 

Three years later Vann refereed his first International Championship contest, the Commonwealth Lightweight Title fight between Zimbabwe’s Langton Tinago and Australia’s Graeme Brooke at the Granada Studios in Manchester on 23rd August 1986.

 

With numerous British, Commonwealth and European title contests under his belt on the 8th Hunyo 1990 Vann refereed his first World Championship bout, the WBC World Minimumweight title fight between Japan’s Hideyuki Ohashi and Thailand’s Napa Kiatwanchai in Tokyo, Japan.

 

To date Vann has refereed one hundred and forty three International, Inter-Continental and World title contests for the World Sanctioning Organisations, such as WBC, WBO, IBF, WBU etc as well as an even higher number of European, Commonwealth, British and Irish domestic title fights during his eight hundred and eighty two bout career to date.

 

The most recent of these bouts being the WBO Inter-Continental Cruiserweight title fight between Ukrainian Oleksandr Usyk and Russian Andry Knyazev, which took place in Kiev just last weekend.

 

In addition Vann has also judged one hundred and seventy three Championship contests since 1978, taking his officiating career total to an incredible one thousand and fifty five contests, sorry make that one thousand and fifty six contests if we include the upcoming event this weekend.

 

Shortly after returning from Kiev, the effervescent Vann spoke briefly about his career and the upcoming event he is to officiate in Scotland sa Sabado.

 

“What can I say I didn’t realise I’d refereed that many fights,

 

My most memorable fight would naturally be Lennox Lewis and Frank Bruno at Cardiff Arms Park, that was history.

 

But have refereed so many memorable fights, where do I start, Shea Neary and Mickey Ward, now that was a great fight.

 

There’s some from years ago I can remember, like Jean-Marc Renard against Farid Benredjeb, oh what a war that was, they both ended up in hospital.

 

Another memorable fight was Cassius Boloyi against Phillip Ndou, It was a war, usa ka hingpit nga gubat

 

They were two South Africans but from different tribes, they wanted me to referee it, not a South African, which was very much appreciated.

 

I remember refereeing the WBC mandatory Lightweight title fight, between Leavander Johnson and Miguel Angel Gonzalez, in a bullring, which was an experience.

 

I refereed in America Jorge Paez and Angel Manfredy, that was a terrific fight, in fact refereed three or four times in America.

 

I think if you count them all I think I refereed in thirty nine different countries, I left school at seven and went back at thirteen and left again at fourteen and I didn’t know at that time that there were that many countries in the world. Ako wala, sa matinud-anon.

 

I just enjoy what I do, you know I’ve been to Russia, Argentina, Japan, all over, I just got back from Kiev.

 

People come up for photographs, even in Kiev, with Mickey the dancer and then they pretend they are you moving about, it’s lovely.

 

I pick out nothing really, I just pick out what has been the big fights that I’ve enjoyed.

 

I qualified as a star grade referee in 1978 and I’m still going, I’d done hundreds of fights by then, it’s not a job really, it’s just enjoyment as such.

 

I wasn’t a very good pro fighter, I was a pretty good amateur, I had sixty six fights as an amateur and lost nineteen, but you used to have three fights a day in the Championships, you fought in the morning, won that you fought in the afternoon and if you won that you fought at night to get through to the next round, in the Army Championships and the boys clubs sort of thing, that’s what we all did.

 

As a pro I have fourteen fights but I lost nine, but I enjoyed it, I’m glad I turned pro and I’m glad I fought, I’m glad I fought amateur and pro and I missed it when I retired and I wanted to do something and my manager suggested I referee, I wanted to coach but Tommy Miller, my manager said to me ‘Jesus Mick what could you teach anyone’, so he said to me you want to be a referee, so I put in for it and it took me two years and I qualified.

 

I’ve enjoyed every minute of it and some times have been better than others, in fact they used to hate me in Scotland, they thought I hated the Scots. I heard this on the radio many times.

 

Alex Morrison will tell you, he thought I was hater of Scotsmen, Ako wala, just they never seemed to get the verdict from me, so it’s quite ironic that karong Sabado it’s the Scottish promoter and the Scottish boxers that asked for me for this show.

 

I’ve always had great fun there and my all time favourite fighter is a Scotsman, Ken Buchanan, so it’s really nice that they want me to be there for the first MBC sanctioned event there, I can’t wait.”

 

Mickey Vann will be the referee for both the Sandy Robb versus Mathew Ellis and Scott Allan versus Isaac Quaye that co-headline the Stewart Allan (Kaatbang Promotions) kalihokan sa Rivals Gym sa Wishaw, Scotland sa Sabado 25th Abril 2015.

 

Ang mga tiket nagkantidad £ 30 ug £ 40 anaa sa direkta nga gikan sa bisan unsa sa mga boksidor nga pagkuha sa bahin, o pagtawag Stewart sa 07711 725257.

Team Dulorme is heading to Texas

Today at the Luis Munoz Marin Airport in Carolina, Puerto Rico, Puerto Rican world title contender, Thomas Dulorme ( 22-1, 14 KOs ) alongside with his team, are heading to Arlington, Texas for the biggest fight of Dulorme’s career schedule for this Sabado, Abril 18 against Terence Crawford ( 25-0, 17 KOs ) of Nebraska, for the vacant WBO World super lightweight title.
The fight will air live on HBO as part of its series ‘HBO Boxing After Dark’, which starts from 9:45 pm (EST) sa College Park Center, located in University of Texas at Arlington.
I’m just two pounds over the weight limit. It is a matter of reaching Texas and continue the work plan for the fight,” said Thomas Dulorme who continued, “I will not let my people of Puerto Rico and the Latinos down”.
This fight is dedicated to all the Latinos and Caribbean people that day after day, and night after night, work very hard in the United States, especially those who work hard in the state of Texas,”, Dulorme concluded.

Boxing’s most avoided world champion Guillermo Rigondeaux heading to UK next month To publically confront Scott Quigg

Cork, Ireland (Abril 12, 2015) – Unified super bantamweight world champion Bill “Ang iro nga ihalas” Rigondeaux (15-0, 10 KOs), arguably the most avoided reigning world title holder in modern boxing history, will travel to London next month in order to publicly confront his mandatory challenger, Scott QUIGG (30-0-2, 22 KOs), the World Boxing Association (WBA) “regular” 122-pound division champion.

 

A month ago in an unusual move, Rigondeaux’ manager Gary Hyde formally petitioned the WBA to enforce a mandatory title fight between his WBA Super champion and Quigg. Hyde is awaiting the WBA’s decision. Rigondeaux is also the World Boxing Organization (WBO) ug Ang Ring magasin super bantamweight champion.

 

A reigning world champion hasn’t been avoided by other world champions and top contenders like Rigondeux has for the past two years since, tingali, junior middleweight Sergio Martinez, or possibly all the way back to middleweight Mike McCallum.

 

The top three super bantamweights in the world outside of RigondeauxInternational Boxing Federation (IBF) ug World Boxing Council (WBC) mga kampeon, Carl Frampton ug Leo Santa Cruz, sa tinagsa, plus Quigghave avoided the Cuban great like the plaque. Once Santa Cruzpromoter at the time, Oscar de la Hoya, announced that a Rigondeaux-Santa Cruz had to happen, Santa Cruz’ powerful adviser, Al HAYMON, exercised a contract option and bought him out to avoid a fight with ‘Rigo.Frampton’s promoter, Barry McGuigan, has proclaimed his fighter, not Rigondeaux, as the No. 1 super featherweight in the world. McGuigan, bisan, is interested in Frampton fighting Quigg in a U.K. showdown, rather than a world mega-fight for three of the four major sanctioning world titles. As the “regular” WBA champion, Quigg is Rigondeaux’ mandatory challenger, bisan pa, he apparently wants no part of the two-time Olympic gold medalist because his promoter, Barry Hearn, not only hasn’t pushed the issue, he’s in negotiations with McGuigan for Frampton to fight Quigg.

 

Former world super bantamweight champions Nonito Doniare, after he lost a unification fight to Rigondeaux two years ago, ug Abner Mares chose to move up one division to fight as featherweights. And now Donaire reports that his manager was contacted by a Quigg representative to discuss a Donaire-Quigg fight in England.

 

Another two-time Olympic gold medalist, WBO 126-pound champion Vasyl Lomachenko, continually insists that “Line” has to move up in weight for a fight to happen despite him having no problems making 126.

 

“QUIGG, Santa Cruz and Frampton have showed no desire to challenge Rigondeaux,” Hyde miingon. “These three fighters are trying to fool the public into believing that fight ang No. 1 guy in the world is not important. While they are lining their pockets with ridiculous amounts of cash for fighting below par opponents, Rigondeaux is forced to wait around until some Asian opponent steps up. This is a sport in which we are accustomed to seeing the best fighting the best but, in the super bantamweight division, it’s the best versus the rest.

 

Rigondeaux will travel to Manchester to fight Quigg, Belfast to fight Frampton, or Las Vegas to fight Santa Cruz. None of these so-called world champions, bisan, will consider fighting the acknowledged world super bantamweight champion. They’re all much more content to hold onto their belts than beating The Man in their weight class.

 

Next month, Hyde reports, Rigondeaux will travel to the United Kingdom in a bold attempt to embarrass Quigg into fighting him. “I don’t like traveling overseas unless I have a fight lined up,” Rigondeaux explained, “but I will travel to England in May to publicly call out Scott Quigg. If he turns down the chance to fight our WBA mandatory, he will be remembered for that instead of being known as a great fighter. While I’m in the UK, I will also go to Belfast to checkout Carl Frampton to ask if he wants to prove himself against the best in his division.

 

Understanding that the top super bantamweight action is currently in Europe, noting a record purse ($2.2 million USD) offered for a Frampton vs. Quigg fight, Rigondeaux is considering a major change in the not too distant future, moving his base from Miami to the UK, if that’s what it takes for him to get in on the action.

 

Hyde also manages former WBO middleweight champion and current International Boxing Federation (IBF) Buhata Dili. 1 mandatory contender Hassan N'Dam N'Jikam (31-1, 18 KOs), former WBA Interim cruiserweight champion Yuri “El Toro” Kalenga (21-2, 14 KOs) and Georgian super lightweight Levan “The Wolf” Ghvamichava (14-1-1, 11 KOs) , as well as top prospects such as Cuban super bantamweight Mark Forest (2-0, 2 KOs), Irish heavyweight Uban sa Sheehan and Bulgarian light heavyweight Blagoy Naydenov.

WBC PURSE BID ALANG SA STEVENSON / KOVALEV Abril 17 SA MEXICO CITY

MONTREAL (Marso 27, 2015) – Ang concretization sa Ang Ring, WBC, WBA, IBF ug WBO kahayag heavyweight panaghiusa away tali Adonis “Superman” Stevenson ug Madaniyah “Krusher” Kovalev gikuha sa laing importante nga lakang. Ang World Boxing Council (WBC) nagmando sa usa ka puntil tinguha sa pagkuha sa dapit Abril 17 aron sa pagtino sa promoter niini nga dakong panghitabo.

Sa sinugdan gihangyo sa Groupe Yvon Michel (Gym) aron siguruhon ang gikinahanglan nga panahon sa pag-andam alang sa usa ka dakong panghitabo nga sama niini super nga away, ang WBC miuyon sa host sa pitaka bid sa Apr. 17 sa Mexico.

Ang mananaog sa niini nga gamay nga bag bid adunay usa ka bentaha sa ibabaw sa uban nga mga promoter sa mga termino sa pagtino sa petsa, dapit ug sa telebisyon network alang sa mga kahayag heavyweight showdown. Ang matag grupo nga gipikas ang bid parehong sa usa ka 50-50 basehan.

Sa wala pa ang Stevenson (25-1, 21 KOs) vs. Kovalev (27-0-1, 24 KOs) dinahunog mahitabo, bisan, ang duha manggugubat kinahanglang modaog sa ilang sunod nga away. Stevenson, sa Haiti-natawo Quebecer, may sa malampuson nga pagpanalipod sa iyang WBC ug Ang Ring mga korona Abril 4 sa Quebec City batok sa Cameroon lumad Sakio Bika (32-6-3, 21 KOs), samtang Kovalev adunay 90 adlaw sa pagpatay sa usa ka mandatory nga depensa sa iyang IBF belt batok sa Pranses Nadjib Mohammedi (37-3, 23 KOs) sa usa ka dapit nga determinado.

Stevenson ni promoter, Gym Presidente Yvon Michel, ang naghinam-hinam sa posibilidad sa pagpalambo sa kon unsa ang mahimong ang pinakadako nga kahayag heavyweight kumbati sa tanan-panahon. “Kami miadto sa unahan tungod kay Adonis ug sa iyang team (adviser Al Haymon ug ulo trainer Jevan Sugar Hill) gusto niini nga makalilisang nga away nga mahitabo,” Michel mipasabut. “Ang akong boksidor (Stevenson) gusto nga sa paghatag sa iyang fans, dili lamang gikan sa Quebec apan gikan sa palibot sa tibuok kalibutan, ang away nga sila gayud gusto.

“Adonis si unfairly akusado sa ducking Kovalev sa miaging ting-init apan ang iyang katapusang tumong sa kanunay sa pagpakita nga siya mao ang Hari sa mga Kahayag heavyweights.”

Ang tanan makigsulti kanako bahin sa Madaniyah Kovalev,” WBC, Ang Ring ug lineal nga kalibutan sa kahayag heavyweight champion Stevenson dugang pa. “Ako bug-os nga focussed sa Sakio Bika karon, apan ako gusto nga paghiusa sa mga titulo. Ako mao ang hari sa akong division ug andam sa pagsulay sa niini.”

Ang 37-anyos nga walhon, bug-os nga pagsalig sa pagdaog sa tanan nga mga mayor nga world title bakus, usab nakamatikod, “Sa pagkatinuod, ang duha ka titulo (WBA ug IBF) nga Bernard Hopkins nawad-an sa sa Kovalev unta gihunahuna nga mga sa akong, apan Hopkins midalagan ngadto sa HBO kay sa makig-away kanako.”

Uban sa tabang sa WBC

Uyon lawas panagsa ra motugot sa mga kampyon sa ubang mga organisasyon nga bahin sa iyang ranggo. Sa kini nga kaso, Apan, ang WBC naghimo sa usa ka gawas ug miingon nga, sa iyang 52th tinuig nga kombensiyon sa miaging Disyembre sa Las Vegas, ang Kovalev vs. Jean Pascal bout winner mao ang mandatory challenger alang sa Stevenson sa titulo.

Ang kamahinungdanon ug kadako sa usa ka away uban sa tanan nga mga titulo sa usa ka division sa stake nakaimpluwensya sa WBC Board of Governors sa paghimo niana nga desisyon.

“Nga mao ang usa ka maayo kaayo nga estratehiya sa Kathy Duva (presidente sa Main Events ug Kovalev ni promoter),” Michel mikomentaryo. “Adonis karon obligado sa pag-atubang sa usa ka unification Kovalev bout, nagpasalig sa usa ka yano nga proseso nga walay taas nga, dili kinahanglan nga baratilyo.

Dear Chairman Mendoza:

 

Nagasulat ako ingon sa manager sa Guillermo Rigondeaux, sa Unified WBA / WBO Champion.

 

I write to request enforcement of the mandatory. Uniquely in the Super Bantamweight Division Guillermo Rigondeaux is the “Unified Champion” ug Scott Quigg mao ang “Regular Champion.”

Clearly as the Regular Champion Quigg is the highest ranked contender in the division. While he was injured he is now back in training and there is no reason why Mr. Rigondeaux dili o kinahanglang dili pagtuman sa iyang mga obligasyon mandatory batok sa Mr. QUIGG.

 

We are aware that there are some discussions about a bout between Quigg and Frampton. Apan, kita sa paghikap uban sa IBF ug sila dili sanction sa panaghiusa away uban sa bisan kinsa sa uban nga kay sa labing taas nga ang-ang champion nga sa niini nga kaso mao ang Guillermo Rigondeaux.

 

Kita matinahorong isugyot nga kini mao ang labing maayo sa pag-atubang sa mga mandatory nga isyu karon ug hangyo nga Quigg ug Guillermo nga gitumong ngadto sa pagsugod negosasyon.

 

Matinahurong gisumiter,

 

Gary Hyde
