“I am excited that we will be having our ‘New England’s Future 3’ boxing event at the DCU Center,” promoter Jose Antonio Rivera said. “The last time there was boxing at the DCU was when I fought for and won the WBA Junior Middleweight world title. It was an electric night with the fight televised live on Showtime. I am hoping we can bring the same kind of excitement with our action- packed lineup of young and hungry up-and-coming boxers.
“We have two UBF title fights on the line with Sonya Lamonakis fighting for the female UBF Heavyweight World Title and Worcester’s own Irving Gonzalez, in only his seventh pro fight, fighting for the UBF 126-pound division East Regional championship. I’m also excited to have five Worcester boxers on our event at the DCU and I hope our Worcester fan-base comes out to support them. I am looking forward to seeing another great night of action-packed boxing.”

WORCESTER, Маса. (Март 20, 2017) – The long trip back begins April 1во за Матов “Sharp Shooter” Remillard, 12 years to the day from his professional debut, на “New England’s Future 2” show at the Palladium in Worcester, Massachusetts.
Remillard (23-1, 13 Нокаута), fighting out of Manchester, Connecticut, hasn’t boxed for the six years, due to him serving a five-year prison sentence. He takes on Lawrence (MA) лек Августин “Безскрупулен” Маура (6-1-3, 3 Нокаута) in the eight-round co-feature. If their tense, near volatile stare-down at a recent press conference is a true indication, Remillard vs. Mauras is not going the distance, to put things mildly.
New England’s Future 2″ is presented by Rivera Promotions Entertainment (RPE), which is owned and operated by retired three-time, две разделение световен шампион Хосе Антонио Ривера и синът му, Anthonee (A.J.) Rivera.
“I am excited to have a boxer of Remillard’s caliber on our ‘New England’s Future 2’ Бокс събитие,” promoter Jose Antonio Rivera remarked. “He has a tough match against August time Mauras for his first fight back. Knowing Remillard, въпреки че, he wouldn’t have it any other way. I want to thank Matt, Пол Чишон (главата треньор) and their team for trusting Rivera Promotions Entertainment for Matt’s first boxing match back from his long layoff.”
Remillard is a former World Boxing Council (WBC) САЩ & Youth World, North American Boxing Federation (NABF) и World Boxing Организация (WBO) шампион в перо. His lone pro loss came in his last fight, Март 23, 2011 in Atlantic City to then rising star Mikey Garcia (24-0), when Remillard retired after 11 кръга. He won’t make excuses; обаче, he never should have taken the fight with Garcia, facing the impending court case that sent him to prison and working with a new head trainer he’d only met two weeks prior to the fight.
“I’m confident I can get back to where I was in about a year,” the 30-year-old Remillard said. “A dream come true would be a rematch with Garcia, at any weight, but I have to earn that shot. Everybody wants a rematch with the guy who gave you the first loss. It seldom happens but, ако не, in time I believe there will be other big fights out there for me.
“I’m fighting an opponent who fought by buddy, Chip Perez, три пъти (0-2-1), so I’m familiar with his style. He doesn’t back down. I don’t expect him to back down against me…until he feels my power. I’m going to take out those five years that I was away on him. I’ve been through so much the last six year but I’m most comfortable in the gym. The past is past and this is my last run. Paul and I have a lot of unfinished business to take care of.”
Seventeen years ago, Chicon first met Remillard at the Manchester PAL gym, but he made the 13-year-old aspiring boxer earn his opportunity to be trained. Paul made Matt clean the bathrooms, take care of spit buckets, и т.н.. before he started training him.
“When he returned to the gym a few months back, I saw that his work ethic hadn’t faded,” Cichon commented. “I don’t believe he’s really that far away from where he was six years ago. He was idle five years but his first day back he sparred 12 кръга. He stayed in good physical shape and is hungrier than ever. He thinks he has something to prove after his last fight, but he really doesn’t have anything to prove to me or anybody else. He is fighting a tough kid but Matt’s going to be victorious. I think in four or five more fights he’ll be back where he was in boxing.”
Pembroke (MA) cruiserweight Vinnie “American Nightmare” Carita (15-1-1, 14 KOs will headline against Brazilian KO specialist Gilberto Matheus “El Magico” Domingos (22-6, 20 Нокаута), the former South American light heavyweight champion, в основното събитие от осем кръга.

Inaugural “Бъдещето на Нова Англия” series event in Worcester
WORCESTER, Маса. (Януари 11, 2017) – Fast rising featherweight prospect Ървин Гонзалес (4-0, 4 Нокаута) will continue Worcester’s rich boxing tradition Четвъртъкнощ, Януари 19, headlining the inaugural “Бъдещето на Нова Англия” series event against Mexican invader Израел “Тигър” Rojas (9-14, 3 Нокаута), at the Worcester Palladium.

Worcester’s boxing tradition started close to a century ago with Canadian import Lou Brouillard, a two-division world champion and Hall of Famer, 1928 Олимпийски бронзов медалист Leo Sawicki, and more recently, наред с други, pro and amateur standouts such as multiple national amateur champion Боби Харис, Sean “The Irish Express” Sean Fitzgerald и Edwin Rodriguez.
Arguably the greatest Worcester fighter in the past 50 years is three-time, две разделение световен шампион Jose Antonio “Гало” Rivera, who is promoting “Бъдещето на Нова Англия” with his son, Anthonee. “I have seen Irvin train and fight since he was in the Junior Olympics,” Rivera said. “I am very proud of him because he was able to discover on his own that he was getting in his own way. He was always a talented fighter but, at times in the ring, he was inconsistent and it cost him a few fights. As he got older, he boxed more talented boxers and looked good against them. He started believing in himself more and it showed in his training. His abilities and confidence grew and that got him all the way to the Olympic Trials. I feel he has the skills to become world champion in the future. The sky is the limit for this young man and I am proud to have him fighting on our show.”
Gonzalez, а 2015 Нова Англия Златни ръкавици шампион, will be headlining his first show in his first scheduled six-round bout. “Fighting in my hometown in the main event means a lot to me because,” Gonzalez admitted. “I’ve grown up in this city, fighting my whole life, and of people who’ve supported me will be watching me fight for the first time as a pro. Развълнуван съм. I’m comfortable fighting here in Worcester and I want to showcase the boxing talent we have in Worcester.”
Gonzalez qualified for the 2016 Olympic Trials but he was eliminated, not due to a loss in the ring, for missing weight. He decided not to wait four years for another Olympic shot, turning pro this past March with a first-round stoppage of Gilvan Santos at Foxwoods Resort Casino. In four pro fights to date, Gonzalez has four knockouts and only one was extended into the second round.
“I was always told that I had a pro boxing style,” the well-spoken, handsome Gonzalez continued, “but we didn’t immediately decide to turn pro until the time was right. I had some stoppages as an amateur but, като про, I’ve been going more to the body. I do have heavy hands. I don’t go into a fight looking for a knockout. I just let ’em come but I’ve prepared to go six rounds if needed for this fight. I’ve been sparring eight rounds with different guys coming in fresh.”
In addition to being a prize fighter, the 20-year-old Gonzalez works at a bank and he also owns and operates New England Boxing gym with his father, former boxer Ървин Гонзалес, where the youngster serves as a personal trainer.

49-year-old pro boxer “Ирландски” Chuck Shearns Hanging up gloves January 19th

НАПОМНЯНЕ: The deadline to apply for a media credential is Jan. 12тата

WORCESTER, Маса. (Януари 5, 2017) – Auburn (MA) младши среднотежка “Ирландски” Chuck Shearns will become the second-oldest professional fighter in Massachusetts boxing history в четвъртък нощ, Януари 19, in his farewell performance at the Worcester Palladium, marking the first pro boxing event in Worcester, located in Central Mass., in more than five years.
Учредителната “Бъдещето на Нова Англия” series event is being presented by Rivera Promotions Entertainment (RPE), which is owned and operated by one of Worcester’s all-time greatest boxers – 3-време, 2-разделение световен шампион Jose Antonio “Гало” Rivera – и синът му, Anthonee “AJ” Rivera.
Rising junior lightweight prospect, 2015 Нова Англия Златни ръкавици шампион Ървин Гонзалес (4-0, 4 Нокаута), will be fighting at home in the 6-round main event against Mexican invader Oscar Eduardo Quezada (2-1, 1 KO), while Springfield (MA) полутежката Reinaldo “Базука” Graceski (4-0, 2 Нокаута) meets Worcester’s Ralph Johnson (2-9, 1 KO) in the six-round co-feature.
The 49-year-old Shearns (2-1, 1 KO), who is the general manager of Lundgren Honda in Auburn, ще поеме Shavonte Dixon (0-1), Филаделфия, в четири кръг мач на. The state record, set in 2011 by then 53-year-old Joe Siciliano, is safe because Jan. 19тата will definitely be Shearns’ last fight.
“I have a tremendous amount of respect for all boxers in terms of what they go through to be able to perform at their best in the ring,” promoter Jose Antonio Rivera said. “Chuck is doing it at 49 възраст! That takes a lot of sacrifice and courage to put your body through that rugged training. I wish him the best and I am glad I can provide him with the opportunity to be able to say goodbye to boxing on his own terms.”
Shearns made his amateur debut at the age of 29, 10 years later he made his professional debut. “I grew up watching boxing with my father (Клозет), who boxed in the Navy, and my grandfather (Клозет),” Shearns explained. “My grandfather was a club fighter, така, boxing was in my blood. I only had four amateur fights and one day I met “Fitzy,” who is now one of my closest friends. (Sean Fitzgerald, one of Worcester’s all-time best boxers, who is Shearns’ head trainer.) I told him I wanted one pro fight and asked him to train me.”
Защо, въпреки че, на възраст от 49 does he still put himself through such extensive training, while working fulltime during the holiday season, to fight an opponent half his age?
“Boxing was the ultimate hobby for me and I just got carried away with it,” Shearns admitted. “I’m a novelty, not a real pro boxer. I’m fighting Януари 19тата because I was given this opportunity and decided to accept it but, честно, I’m sure that this it! Maybe I just wanted a chance to go out with a win because I lost my last one? Не знам. Sometimes I wake up asking myself, ‘What am I doing?’ And ‘Fitzy’ is working me so hard for this fight – I don’t know if it’s my age or what – but I’ve hated every minute of it. I lost my father in March. He was always in my corner and this fight I’ll have RIP on my trunks in his honor.”
Lately, Shearns’ typical day has been, добре, in a word, unordinary, меко казано. He reports to work at 5 А.М., exercises and runs on the treadmill for an hour in a small gym at work, catches up with “Fitzy” at Anytime Fitness to hit the heavy and speed bags, and after work “Fitzy” trains Shearns at Camp Get Right.
Shearns has the complete support of his family and co-workers, who will all be at the Worcester Palladium supporting him Jan. 19. “Моята съпруга (Karen) and two daughters (Kayla and Olivia) have always been there for me,” Shearns noted. “My wife supports me and has jokingly said, ‘We’re getting divorced if you lose this fight.’ I’ve worked at Lundgren Honda for about 20 years and most of the 100-plus employees there will be at my fight. I did want to fight one more time before I turn 50. When Jose asked me to fight, how could I pass up this final opportunity?”
Also fighting on the undercard in 4-round bouts are Worcester junior lightweight Andino Ranse in his pro debut vs. Lowell’s (MA) Jonathan Perez (2-0-1, 2 Нокаута), pro-debuting Worcester heavyweight Felix Martinez срещу. Dorchester’s (MA) Brian Richardson (0-8), Hartford’s (CT) pro-debuting light heavyweight Ричард “Попай Моряка” Rivera срещу. Brockton’s (MA) Huston Crayton (1-8, 0 Нокаута), pro-debuting Southbridge (MA) боксьор Wilfredo Pagan срещу. Puerto Rican Alexander Picot (1-1-1, 0 Нокаута) at a 145-pound catchweight, pro-debuting Springfield (MA) младша полукатегория Luis “Pancho” Santiago срещу, Mexican Jonathan Ramos (1-2, 0 Нокаута), 2016 N.W. Golden Gloves шампион Антъни Laureano (1-0), of East Haven (CT), срещу. Boston junior welterweight Rafael Francis (0-8), Saugus (MA) полутежката Brandon Montella (5-0, 4 Нокаута) срещу.

I never had a press conference until I was much more established in my career. This is about them showcasing their skills.
“After my son graduated from Johnson Wales University with a degree in Sports Management, he told me he was ready to form Rivera Promotions Entertainment, as we had discussed, and promote shows. I lost a lot of money promoting a show in 2008, so I told him to put a plan together first and within a week he did. He had gotten his feet wet in the business as an intern for a boxing promoter. We went over the plan ad decided that we can do this. We’re not signing fighters, в момента, we’re helping them build their careers. We do a lot of hard work behind the scenes that the public doesn’t see; the fighters work in the gym. I’m really excited about January 19тата. Irvin Gonzalez is a future world champion.”

Rivera added. “I got into the business side of boxing as an intern working for CES.
