Dláždí cestu boxerkám…..
Claressa Shields
“USA Boxing je rodina!”
USA Boxing Alumni Association, Třída 2018 Branec

COLORADO SPRINGS, Klín. (Prosinec 3, 2018) – Dvojnásobný olympijský vítěz Claressa Shields nejenže stojí v čele nové vlny ženského boxu, vyvinula se ve skutečný vzor pro nespočet mladých lidí.

 

 

 

Shields bude uveden do síně slávy asociace boxerských absolventů USA tento pátek večer v Salt Lake City, spolu s třídou 2018 Členové Roy Jones Jr. a, Andre Ward, stejně jako pozdě Emanuel Stewarta Tom Cleary.

 

 

 

Druhý ročník Síně slávy USA Boxing Alumni Association, konané ve spojení s 2018 Elitní a mládežnické mistrovství USA v boxu a Junior a Prep Open, Prosinec 2-8, se bude konat v prosinci 7, v hotelu Radisson (215 S. Temple St.) v Salt Lake City, Utah.

 

 

 

“Cítím se poctěn,” Shields hovořil o svém uvedení do Síně slávy asociace boxerských absolventů USA,” Já jsem jen 23 let a být uveden do USA Boxing Hall of Fame je velká pocta, ale také šok pro mě. Věřím, že jsem hoden jakékoli cti, ale vím, že věci vyžadují čas, a vždy jsem si myslel, že v té době dám do síně slávy 40 nebo 50. To je pro mě velký problém a cítím se tak poctěn. Jen aby mé jméno bylo uvedeno vedle jmen velikánů jako Andre Ward a Roy Jones, to mě opravdu motivuje. Cítím se privilegovaný!”

 

 

 

Flintova pýcha, Michigan, Shields již úspěšně předala svůj amatérský úspěch profesionálním hodnostem, ve kterém je 7-0 (2), a panující jednota (IBF, WBA & WBC) svět middleweight mistr.

 

 

 

Shields ukončila svou amatérskou kariéru neuvěřitelně 77-1 (18 KO) záznam, zdůrazněno jejími výkony na olympijské zlaté medaili v 2012 a 2016. Od té doby se v ringu neztratila 2012, když Savannah Marshall (Anglie) vyhrál na body, 14-8, na mistrovství světa v Číně.

 

 

 

“USA Boxing vstoupil do mého života jako dvojnásobný juniorský olympijský vítěz,” Claressa vysvětlila svůj vztah mezi USA a boxem. “Pomoc od USA Boxing byla tak důležitá: jen si mě všiml jako mladého sportovce a věděl jsem, že bych byla silná mladá žena, která bude v budoucnu reprezentovat USA; setkání Julie Goldsticker, která pro mě byla požehnáním, protože mi jako teenagerka hodně pomáhala, a jen mít trenéra Abdullaha, trenér Al Mitchell, a trenér Gloria Peek nauč mě různé styly a jak používat všechny své atributy. USA Boxing mi požehnal spoustou znalostí a celoživotním přátelstvím se všemi mými olympijskými spoluhráči a olympijskými trenéry. Můj oblíbený trenér, Koroma, doslova byl se mnou celou cestu 2015-2016, pomáhat mi mimo kruh s radami a uvnitř kruhu.”

 

 

 

Shields je dnes jednou z hnacích sil ženského boxu, nošení pochodně předávané americkými pionýrkami v boxu jako např Christy Martin, Laila Ali a několik dalších.

 

 

 

“Právě teď se děje velká změna — mě, Mikaela Mayer, Franchon Crews, Katie Taylor, Amanda Serrano a několik dalších žen právě nese pochodeň pro ženský box,” Štíty vysvětleny. “Pokrok byl rychlý, každá síť letos vedla v televizi boj žen, zejména Showtime, na kterém jsem čtyřikrát boxoval na hlavní událost. Ženský box může zajít daleko. Věřím, že přijde den, kdy můžeme být vyplaceni miliony stejně jako muži.”

 

 

 

Otevřením dveří a rozbitím překážek, Claressa se stala skutečným vzorem pro mladé lidi po celém světě, dovnitř a ven z boxu.

 

 

 

“Je pro ně dobrý pocit být vzorem (ženy), a také pro tolik mužských boxerů,” Štíty si všimly. “Box je v jiné době a já chci jen usnadnit přicházející dívky, takže když se stanou pro, box bude blíže k rovnosti.”

 

 

 

“Claressa má jeden z největších příběhů v historii amatérského boxu,” řekl Chris Cugliari, Výkonný ředitel Asociace absolventů USA boxu. “Její jízda, závazek, talent, a postava z ní udělala USA boxerský a olympijský vítěz, zanechání odkazu, který vydrží velmi dlouho. Je průkopnicí ženského boxu a prosadila se jako jedna z nejvlivnějších amerických absolventek boxu všech dob. Asociace absolventů USA v boxu jí chce poděkovat za to, že inspirovala amatérskou boxerskou komunitu a sloužila jako skvělý vzor pro další generaci šampionů.”

 

USA Boxing Alumni Association

 

 

 

Vytvořeno k celoživotnímu prosazování, vzájemně výhodné vztahy mezi USA Boxing a jeho absolventy, –boxerky, úředníci, trenéři a fanoušci boxu — Sdružení Alumni spojuje generace šampionů, inspirovat a vracet se budoucím šampiónům USA v boxu, dovnitř a ven z kruhu.

 

 

 

USA Boxing Alumni Association je otevřena všem, kteří mají rádi box a chtěli by zůstat ve spojení s amatérským boxem.. Členům je poskytován přístup k široké škále speciálních akcí pořádaných Alumni Association, včetně recepce Síně slávy USA Boxing Alumni Association.

 

 

 

Připojit se k Alumni Association, jednoduše se zaregistrujte na alumni@usaboxing.org pro $40.00 za rok členský příspěvek. Noví členové obdrží tričko, klíčenka a elektronická peněženka.

 

 

 

 

Přes všechny pocty a uznání, ona tak bohatě přijala, Štíty nezapomněly, kde to všechno začalo, a stále se aktivně věnuje boxu v USA.

 

 

 

“Udržuji kontakt s mnoha atletkami a dávám jim rady, pokud se mě zeptají,” Přidala Claressa. “Také jsem jel na pět dní do Colorada, abych byl motivátorem a hlavním řečníkem pro Next Olympic Hopeful. Poté, co moje kariéra skončí asi 15 léta, Chci být trenérkou boxu a vést ženský tým k dalším olympijským zlatým medailím, pokud dostane příležitost. Chci také být učitelem na škole a poradcem pro mládež.”

 

 

 

Shields, bohužel, se nemůže v pátek večer zúčastnit recepce Síně slávy, protože je v sobotu večer na HBO v hlubokém tréninku na obranu svých titulů, živě z centra StubHub v Carsonu, Kalifornie, proti Fenmke Hermans (9-1).

 

 

 

“Smutně,” Štíty uzavřeny, “Nemůžu tam být, ale, kdybych tam byl, Řekl bych, že: Děkuji USA Boxing za to, že mi věřil ve věku 16. Bylo mi ctí reprezentovat Ameriku, nejen jednou, ale dvakrát na olympiádě! Děkuji trenérovi Táborový kotlík (Walsh) za to, že mě nutím kopat hluboko, tím, že se musí vypořádat s jeho irskými způsoby a vtipy, také za změnu kultury amerického boxu. Zvláštní poděkování trenérovi Kayovi, taky, Na ruce nemůžu počítat, na kolik dní jsme trénovali 1 dopoledne, kolikrát jsem zaklepal na dveře jeho pokoje a rozběhl se, kolikrát mi musel vzít telefon, protože jsem plakal nebo měl rodinný problém. Je to trenér, kterému jsem mohl říct všechno, a také mi požehnal svými znalostmi boxu a díky tomu jsem se vždy cítil v bezpečí, když byl v rohu. USA Boxing není jen personál – USA Boxing je rodina! I když jsem měl pár slov Matthew Johnson a další zaměstnanci, Děkuji jim za to, že na mě byli tvrdí a ujistili se, že jsem zvládl své povinnosti. Láska ke všem zaměstnancům USA Boxing, Jsem opravdu vděčný.”

 

 

 

Claressa Shields je mnohem víc než světová a olympionická vítězka, je také třídním aktem, přesně to, co je dnes tak zoufale potřeba.

Training Camp Almost Complete; A Confident and On-Weight Claressa Shields Ready for Hannah Rankin DAZN Showdown on November 17

Zanechat komentář

Women’s superstar and two-division world champion Claressa Shields is in Florida with trainer John David Jackson, finishing up preparations for her showdown with Glasgow, Scotland’s Hannahh Rankin on Saturday, Listopad 17, at the Kansas Star Arena and Casino in Mulvane, Kansas.

 

 

 

Shields (6-0, 2 KO) will defend her IBF and WBA World Middleweight Championships, and be looking to add the vacant WBC title, against Rankin (5-2, 1 KO) in the 10-round co-featured bout to Salita Promotions stablemate Jarrell Miller’s heavyweight showdown against Romania’s Bogdan Dinu.

 

 

 

Both fights, along with former world champion Brandon Rios taking on Canelo’s brother, Ramon Alvarez, in a super welterweight 10-rounder and former two-time world middleweight title challenger Gabriel Rosado going against once-beaten contender Luis Arias, will be broadcast live on DAZN.

 

 

 

23-year-old Shields, a former two-time Olympic Gold Medallist, has reignited interest in women’s boxing and become a ratings favorite for her nationally televised championship exploits. A proud native of Flint, Michigan, Shields mixes her brash pronouncements of greatness with a genuine and continued effort to inspire female athletes and render aid to members of her home community.

 

 

 

Shields was originally scheduled to face WBC and WBO World Middleweight Champion Christina Hammer on November 17, but the bout was postponed after Hammer withdrew due to medical reasons.

 

Did the change of opponents from Hammer to Rankin affect your training?

 

 

 

I don’t train for my opponents, I just push to get the best out of me, fyzicky a mentálně. If I’m the best ‘me,’ I don’t have to worry about who the opponent is. The change of opponents didn’t bother me at all; the worst thing about this camp for me was just all the date changes – constantly having to get my mind focused on the pace and timing of training depending on the fight date. I can’t wait to get in the ring!

 

You’ve fought at super middleweight 168 and recently at middleweight 160 liber. How is your training, diet and any other efforts different to make 160?

 

 

 

Training is always hard and I’m constantly learning. I’ve had a completely different diet this camp – a real change and a positive one for me. I’ve teamed up with Perfecting Athletes for my daily meals, and I feel great. I’ve always tried to eat healthy but these folks are pros and are more educated in that field than myself. I have this magic drink that makes my stomach smile – I love it! It’s watermelon mixed with a green vegetable. I’m not going to tell you what vegetable it is, but I’ve been drinking it everyday, and I feel GREAT.

 

Your viewership numbers have been very strong. Why do you think people are drawn to you?

 

 

 

I believe that people are drawn to how real and honest I am, jak dovnitř a ven z kruhu. I say what I mean and mean what I say. I’m hard but I have a soft side also. And I think people are drawn to how I fight — not only do I talk a good game but I fight my a– off too! dávám 1000% every time – I want to change the game and bring a whole new generation of fans to women’s boxing and boxing overall.

 

What do you know about your opponent Hannah Rankin?

 

 

 

I know that my opponent Rankin is very tough and determined to be a world champion. I like her drive, I like her heart. I know that she has been in the ring as a sparring partner for many champions, one being Christina Hammer. So Rankin has seen some good fighters. But one thing is for sure – she has never seen a fighter like me. And since Hammer couldn’t fight because of her medical condition, in many ways the next best thing is to fight and beat her sparring partner and let Rankin tell Hammer what she’s in for when she returns!

 

What needs to be done to solve the Flint water crisis?

 

 

To solve the flint Water crisis, I think that people should continue to give water and also keep it in the news that there is a city in America where, unbelievably, US citizens don’t have clean water. And hopefully the president or our governor do something to fix all the pipes.

 

What’s the secret to becoming the best of the best in any sport?

 

 

 

I believe the secret starts with believing in yourself, being dedicated, working hard and just always striving to be better. I feel I’m my biggest critic when I train and box. It’s hard to watch film of my fights because even though I’m doing 97 things right I just can’t stand to see the 3 things I’m doing wrong. I’m a person who strives to pull out my full potential. It takes guts to be great. Nothing will stand in the way of achieving my goals, which includes being the GWOAT and creating equality for all women fighters when it comes to the money, opportunities and coverage the men get.

Women’s Superstar Claressa Shields to Defend IBF and WBA Middleweight Championships and Looks to Add WBC Belt Against Scotland’s Hannah Rankin, Live on DAZN on November 17

Zanechat komentář

V sobotu, Listopad 17, at the Kansas Star Arena and Casino in Mulvane, Kansas, superstar two-division women’s world champion Claressa Shields of Flint, Michigan, will defend her IBF and WBA World Middleweight Championships and be looking to add the vacant WBC title against Hannahh Rankin from Glasgow, Skotsko.

 

 

 

The 10-round Shields (6-0, 2 KO), and Rankin (5-2, 1 KO) battle will serve as the co-featured bout to Brooklyn-born heavyweight contender Jarrell Miller’s WBA World Heavyweight Championship showdown against Romania’s Bogdan Dinu.

 

 

 

These two fights will be broadcast live on DAZN, along with former world champion Brandon Rios taking on Canelo’s brother, Ramon Alvarez, in a super welterweight 10-rounder and former two-time world middleweight title challenger Gabriel Rosado going against once-beaten contender Luis Arias.

 

 

 

Shields was originally scheduled to face WBC and WBO World Middleweight Champion Christina Hammer on November 17, but the bout was postponed after Hammer withdrew due to medical reasons. Hammer has been named a champion in recess during her recovery. The two champions are now projected to do battle in the first quarter of 2019.

 

 

 

“Claressa is a once-in-a-generation athlete that transcends the sport,” said her promoter, Dmitriy Salita. “She will take another step in her goal to achieve the status of GWOAT as she makes the first defense of her middleweight world titles against the skilled and durable Hannah Rankin.”

 

 

 

A bonafide women’s superstar and TV ratings favorite, 23-year-old “T-Rex” Shields is a two-time Olympic gold medallist and already a world champion in two weight divisions. In her fourth professional fight, she won the IBF and WBC Super Middleweight Championships in August 2017 with a dominant stoppage of Germany’s Nikki Adler. Pak, in June of this year and in just her sixth pro fight, she dropped down to 160 pounds and won the IBF and WBA Middleweight titles with an exciting unanimous decision over Hannah Gabriels.

 

 

 

“I’m so excited to be able to give my fans another chance to see me defend my championship this year and to have the opportunity to win the WBC middleweight title on November 17,” said Shields. “I appreciate the efforts of Salita Promotions, my manager Mark Taffet, and Matchroom Boxing in putting this fight together so quickly. I will be in great shape and will provide a great performance.”

 

 

 

“I want to thank Salita Promotions and Matchroom Boxing for providing Claressa with another chance to fight this year and an opportunity to attain a third middleweight world championship,” said Mark Taffet, manager of Claressa Shields. “Claressa is hungry and motivated to put on a great performance on November 17 on DAZN. Claressa has lofty goals and I have no doubt that she’s going to achieve every one of them, including fighting and defeating Christina Hammer early next year. I expect Shields vs Rankin to be an action-packed fight that fans will enjoy tremendously.”

 

 

 

28-year-old Rankin put in an impressive and brave performance while losing a challenge for Alicia Napoleon’s WBA Super Middleweight Championship in August of this year. Před tím, she picked up the WBC Silver Middleweight Championship with a dominant victory over Finland’s Sanna Turunen in June.

 

 

 

“I’m excited about the fight and proud to be representing Scotland on such a big stage,” said Rankin. “In boxing, nothing is impossible and on November 17, it will be just us in there when the bell rings and I think it’s going to be one hell of a fight.”

Houstonská muší Roma Martinez představuje další vlnu boxerek z USA

Zanechat komentář
TISKOVÁ ZPRÁVA
K okamžitému zveřejnění
Vydejte se na letní olympijské hry mládeže v Buenos Aires 2018

Říjen. 6-18 v Argentině

 

COLORADO SPRINGS, Klín. (Říjen 8, 2018) — Houston muší váha Roma Martinez, který představuje další vlnu boxerek z USA, je v současné době v Argentině, aby učinil prohlášení na probíhajících letních olympijských hrách mládeže v Buenos Aires 2018.

 

 

Letní olympijské hry mládeže Buenos Aires 2018 pokračuje do října. 18 v Parque Polidesportivo Roca v Argentině.

 

 

 

Osmnáctiletý Martinez začal boxovat před šesti lety, když do jejího života vstoupil její nevlastní otec, odvedl ji do místní boxerské tělocvičny, aby jí pomohl vyvarovat se potenciálních problémů, a také se bránit.

 

 

 

Je online studentkou na University of Saint Thomas v Houstonu, plánování na obor podnikání, a Roma dokázala vyvážit svůj nabitý program z jednoduchého důvodu. “Nemám moc společenského života,” přiznala, “takže se mi snadno trénuje a studuje.”
 

 

Argentina je druhou cizí zemí, do které cestovala v loňském listopadu v Indii. I když má relativně omezenou amatérskou kariéru, Martinez se podařilo získat nejvyšší ocenění na šesti národních akcích: 2016 Státní příslušníci USA v boxu, 2014 & 2015 Poráží vesmír, 20-15 Dámská zlatá rukavice, 2-15 Státní příslušníci juniorských olympijských her, a 2014 Hnědé rukavice.

 

 

 

Stejně jako mnoho jejích spoluhráčů z týmu USA, kromě oponentů z celého světa, Roma doufá, že dokáže předvést působivý výkon v Buenos Aires, aby si zlepšila šance na postup do kvalifikace 2020 Olympiády v Japonsku.

 

 

 

“Olympiáda mládeže je největší věc v mé kariéře, protože doufám, že budu soutěžit v 2020 Olympijské hry,” Řekla Martinez. “Olympiáda mládeže je téměř stejně velká jako olympiáda, soutěží pouze mladší sportovci. Beru věci jeden den po druhém, ale mám cíle udělat olympijské hry, vyhrajte zlatou medaili, a pak se stal profesionálem a získal světový titul.

 

 

“Toto je moje poslední soutěž pro mládež. Letos v prosinci přejdu do elitní divize. Rozdíl bude ve věku (jejích oponentů) a další mezinárodní konkurence, ale potřebuji tuto zkušenost, abych dosáhl svých cílů.”

 

 

 

Romové, ona říká, je technický boxer, který občas přináší tlak. Její oblíbený boxer je skvělý “Cukr” Ray Leonard a vzhlédne Nicola Adams (2012 & 2016 Zlatý olympijský medailista z Velké Británie) a Mikaela Mayer (2016 Olympionik USA). Roma využil výhod sparringových setkání s Adamsem a Mayerem, příslušně, v Houstonu a Colorado Springs.

 

 

 

Martinez věří, že ženský box je na vzestupu a těší se na jeho budoucnost. “Čím více nejlepších boxerek pro nás bude znamenat větší věci,” Přidal Martinez, “Získáme více času na televizi a vyděláme více peněz.”

 

 

 

Roma připíše USA Boxing za to, že se naučila být disciplinovaná, a je vděčná za vynikající koučování, které získala. Martinez plánuje v budoucnu hodně cestovat a až získá obchodní titul, Roma je odhodlána to využít ve svůj prospěch, vlastnit restauraci a, možná, tělocvičnu, aby mohla zůstat v boxu poté, co zavěsí rukavice dolů po silnici.

V prvních kolech, both fighters were very active, throwing a lot of punches, but Barrios was the one landing the cleaner shots.

Barrios hurt Juarez in round five, knocking her mouthpiece out with right hook, forcing the referee to stop the action momentarily. Juarez recovered but never was able to stop Barrios from coming forward as she continued to land thumping power shots. A clash of head butts cut Barrios on the forehead during the middle rounds, but she was never bothered by them.

I hit her with a lot of power shots and she hung in there. I didn’t feel any power in her punches, so I kept coming forward. I got the victory and I’m ready to fight any of the champions at Lightweight. Katie Taylor, Mikaela Mayer a Amanda Serrano, I’m coming for you guys. You can run, but you can’t hide.”
