I am excited to be able to have our first world championship boxing match on our ‘New England’s 3’ πυγμαχία εκδήλωση,” promoter Jose Rivera commented. “It’s special because it’s a women’s World Heavyweight title fight with veterans like Sonya and Laura, who also have some hostilities towards one another. They’ve both earned this opportunity to fight for the UBF Women’s World Heavyweight Championship. I expect fireworks and know fans will be in for a treat.
Pro boxing returns to the DCU Center for the first time σε 11 χρόνια, when promoter Jose Antonio Rivera defeated Αλεχάντρο Γκαρσία, by way of a 12-round unanimous decision, for the World Boxing Association (WBA) World super welterweight title.

This is still a make-dominates sport. I tell young girls to box as a side job. I have two Master’s Degrees and I’m a full-time teacher in New York. Boxing is my hobby. Very few women can make enough money boxing to make a good living. I don’t know if it’s because I was born in Greece and boxing is in my blood, but I love this sport and that’s what keeps me going. I guess I was born to fight. I enjoy getting in the ring. I’ve gotten a lot from boxing and now I’m giving back to amateurs in New York City as president of a youth organization.
Lamonakis; is a former International Boxing Organization World and New York State female heavyweight champion. Her opponent, Ramsey (10-7, KOs), as a two-time world title challenger is hoping the third time is the charm for her. They have history together and this fight nearly happened a few years ago.
I beat her daughter (Alysia Williams-Stevenson) in my second pro fight,” Lamonakis explained. “She said she’s see me and now, seven years later, we’re fighting. She’s a little older than me and I needed more fights before I fought her. We were supposed to fight a few years ago in Aruba but a hurricane cancelled the show.

ΒΡΕΤΑΝΙΚΟΣ ΔΥΟ ΧΡΟΝΟΣ ΟΛΥΜΠΙΑΝΟΣ, SAVANNAH ΜΑΡΣΑΛΛΙ, ΚΛΕΙΣΙΜΗ ΔΙΑΠΡΑΓΜΑΤΕΥΣΗ ΜΕ ΠΡΟΩΘΗΣΕΙΣ ΤΟΥ ΜΑΥΡΟΥΚΟΥ

LAS VEGAS, NV (Μάιος 19, 2017) – Στο 25 ετών, Σαβάνα “Σιωπηλός δολοφόνος” Μάρσαλ, είναι η τρίτη γυναίκα μπόξερ που εντάχθηκε στο Mayweather Promotions σταθερός, ενώνεται με την πρώην 4 φορές παγκόσμια πρωταθλητή Layla McCarter, και κατώτερη αήττητη προοπτική μεσαίου βάρους, LaTondria Jones. Ο μαχητής με έδρα το Χάρτλπουλ που συγκέντρωσε την προσοχή στις ερασιτεχνικές τάξεις πυγμαχίας έκλεισε αυτό το κεφάλαιο, και είναι έτοιμη να δημιουργήσει ένα όνομα για την ίδια της ανάμεσα στις μεγαλύτερες γυναίκες στον επαγγελματικό μποξ.
Ο Μάρσαλ άρχισε 12 χρονών μετά την ένταξή του σε ένα τοπικό κλαμπ του Χάρτλπουλ Χέντλαντ. Το νέο αστέρι του μποξ κέρδισε το δαχτυλίδι της λόγω της έμφυτης ντροπής της, αλλά μέσα στο δαχτυλίδι διαθέτει το πλήρες πακέτο που συνοδεύεται από έναν μακρύ κατάλογο τιμών που εκπροσωπεί τη χώρα καταγωγής της στη Μεγάλη Βρετανία.
Με την πυγμαχία των γυναικών σε άνοδο, Η Σαβάννα Μάρσαλ θα ενταχθεί στους σταθερούς της συντρόφους στο Λας Βέγκας, NV για να ξεκινήσει το ταξίδι της για να γίνει μια κορυφαία προοπτική στο άθλημα της πυγμαχίας. Ο Μάρσαλ έχει ένα εντυπωσιακό βιογραφικό ερασιτεχνών, καθώς ήταν η πρώτη φορά της παγκόσμιας πρωταθλητής πυγμαχίας δύο γυναικών της Ολυμπιακής και της Βρετανίας. Ο Μάρσαλ κέρδισε χρυσό στο 2012 Παγκόσμιοι πρωταθλητές, 2014 Παιχνίδια Κοινοπολιτείας, και συμμετείχε στους θερινούς Ολυμπιακούς Αγώνες του περασμένου καλοκαιριού, προχωρώντας στους προημιτελικούς μεσαίου βάρους. Ο “Σιωπηλός δολοφόνος” κερδίζει μια νίκη, πολλοί απέτυχαν να τα καταφέρουν, είναι ο μόνος μαχητής που νίκησε τον Αμερικανό αστέρι και τον Ολυμπιακό χρυσό μετάλλιο, Claressa Shields.
“Όταν έφυγα από το GB, Δεν είχα τίποτα, Ήθελα απλώς να εκπαιδεύσω και να δω τι επιλογές ήταν εκεί έξω. Τότε ήρθε αυτή η ευκαιρία και δεν θα μπορούσα να είμαι πιο ευτυχισμένος,” είπε ο Μάρσαλ. “Δεν είναι καλύτερο από την υπογραφή με τον Floyd Mayweather, το κάνει?”
“Ήμασταν επιμελής στη στρατηγική μας όσον αφορά την υπογραφή νέων μαχητών, αναζητούμε κορυφαίο ταλέντο σε όλο τον κόσμο και η Savannah Marshall είναι η τέλεια προσθήκη στο στάβλο μας,” λέει ο CEO της Mayweather Promotions Leonard Ellerbe.

DETROIT (Μάρτιος 11, 2017) – Two-time Olympic Gold Medalist Claressa Shields shined in her television debut, knocking out the durable Szilvia Szabados in the fourth round (1:30) to advance to 2-0 as a professional in the main event on ShoBox: Η νέα γενιά Παρασκευή on SHOWTIME at MGM Grand Detroit.

Ασπίδες (2-0, 1 KOs) put on a show less than an hour from her hometown of Flint, Μιχ., landing nearly 50 percent of her power shots in the first women’s boxing main event in premium television history.

Szabados (15-9, 6 KOs), της Ουγγαρίας, didn’t touch the canvas but never really stood a shot against an opponent that has been billed as the future of women’s boxing. Shields came out blazing in the opening round, backing up Szabados with crisp, clean punches as she out-landed her opponent 31-4 in the first.

Shields was a bit more patient and settled in the second and third, but the onslaught continued against a relatively defenseless Szabados. After a flush right hand, left hook combo in the fourth, referee Harvey Dock had seen enough and stepped in to halt the contest with Szabados still on her feet.

“It was about respect,” Shields said of her performance. “I wanted to go out there and show I had power and I wasn’t scared of her. I knew she was tough coming in. That’s why I started going to the body. I was going to get the clean shot in one round and she was going to go, but the ref stopped it in the fourth. A knock out is a knockout. It was exciting.

“I’m glad everyone came. I took advantage of this great opportunity once again. It’s another step toward winning a world title.”

Szabados said she was disappointed with Dock’s decision to stop the fight when he did. “I’m very sad and heartbroken right now because it only went four rounds and I could have kept going," είπε. “Her hits were not painful. Her right hook got me a lot, Ξέρω. I could feel that one.”

Στο ShoBox ομο-χαρακτηριστικό γνώρισμα, Nikolay Potapov narrowly edged Antonio Nieves in a close, 10-round split decision scored 96-94 Potapov twice, 96-94 Nieves.

The technical match between undefeated top-10 bantamweight prospects was close from the opening bell. Nieves was the more active fighter, προσγείωση 64 punches per round to Potapov’s 50, but the round-by-round breakdowns reveal that Potapov prevailed in total connects as well as in landed power shots.

“Νόμιζα ότι ήταν μια στενή μάχη, but I came on strong at the end,” Potapov said. “I had more and finished stronger. That made the difference. I am much more aggressive now and I sit down on my shots. That’s the difference training at Kronk has done for me.

I knew I won the fight. I wasn’t surprised when I got it. I wasn’t happy about the judging in my last big fight, but I thought this time I had done more than enough to win.”

Nieves did impressive work to the body, σύνδεση για 59 total body shots compared to just 14 for Potapov, but it wasn’t enough to earn him the decision.

“Νόμιζα ότι κέρδισε. I thought it was a bad decision,” Nieves said. “I don’t even think it should have been a spilt decision. I thought I was up clearly. He didn’t really score like he wanted to. I was making him miss and landing all the sharper punches. Everything he was hitting me with I was blocking and coming back.

I don’t know why close fights don’t go my way. From here I go back to the drawing board. My whole team and a lot of the crowd felt like I won. I would love to fight him again.”

In a featured matchup between undefeated welterweights, Wesley Tucker (14-0, 8 KOs) edged Ed Williams in an eight-round unanimous decision scored 77-73, 79-71, 78-72 Tucker.

The foul-filled fight featured little action. Toledo’s Tucker landed 31 τοις εκατό των πυροβολισμούς δύναμής του σε σύγκριση με μόλις 19 percent for Detroit’s Williams (12-2-1, 4 KOs), who was deducted two points for hitting to the back of the head on separate occasions. Tucker (14-0, 8 KOs) didn’t land a jab the entire fight, but his heavier shots and accuracy with his power shots seemed to be more impressive to the judges.

He was an awkward, long fighter, who knew how to move very well,” Tucker said. “I’m not disappointed it turned out like that. Not every fight can be pretty, so I came out with the win and that’s what matters most.

I was really frustrated in there, but I’m an action kind of fighter, so when he was running it kind of was pissing me off. He was all over the place. He ran the whole fight.”

Williams landed only 17 τοις εκατό του συνόλου των γροθιές του.

He didn’t show me anything I didn’t expect,” Williams said. “This week was a great experience for me, but you want to come out with a win and I wasn’t able to get it done.”

Στην τηλεοπτική ανοιχτήρι, Joshua Greer Jr. handed bantamweight prospect James Gordon-Smith his firstloss with a brutal one-punch sixth-round knockout (2:06).

After a blazing first round that saw over 50 power shots landed, Greer pepped his opponent with a steady diet of counter rights as Gordon-Smith continued to charge forward and fight largely off-balance. Chicago’s Greer floored Gordon-Smith with a perfectly timed right uppercut in the opening seconds of the fifth and, despite looking dazed, Gordon-Smith rallied to survive the back-and-forth round.

In the sixth, Greer (12-1-1, 5 KOs) knocked Gordon-Smith out cold with a huge straight right that sent the Detroit native falling face forward as referee Harvey Dock immediately waved off the bout.

“I guess he blinked. That was the problem,” Greer said. “I told everyone when I got here I didn’t have that pillow for no reason. I said don’t blink and I wasn’t playing. I knew I was going to get him. The pillow is just my trademark. It’s nothing personal. You have to stand out somehow. That’s just what I do. Nothing personal to him.

“I knew what I came to do. I’m excited but I’m not shocked. My team knew what would happen and they had confidence in me. I knew it was only a matter of time.”

Gordon-Smith (11-1, 6 KOs) ήταν η 160ου fighter to suffer his first defeat on the prospect developmental series. And Nieves would later become the 161st.

Της Παρασκευής quadrupleheader will replay on Τρίτη, Μάρτιος 14 στο 10 μ.μ. ΚΑΙ/PT σε SHOWTIME EXTREME. The telecast will also be available on SHOWTIME on DEMAND® και SHOWTIME ANYTIME®.
