  • 49-Year-Old Pro Boxer “Irish”
    49-year-old pro boxer “Irish” Chuck Shearns Hanging up gloves January 19th WORCESTER, Mass. (January 5, 2017) – Auburn (MA) junior middleweight “Irish” Chuck Shearns will become the second- oldest professional fighter in Massachusetts boxing history on Thursday night, January 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. The inaugural “New England’s Future” 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-time, 2-division world champion Jose Antonio “El Gallo” Rivera – and his son, Anthonee “AJ” Rivera. Rising junior lightweight prospect, 2015 New England Golden Gloves champion Irvin Gonzalez (4-0, 4 KOs), will be fighting at home in the 6-round main event against Mexican invader Oscar Eduardo Quezada (2-1, 1 KO), while Springfield (MA) light heavyweight Reinaldo “Bazooka” Graceski (4-0, 2 KOs) 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, will take on Shavonte Dixon (0-1), of Philadelphia, in a four-round bout. The state record, set in 2011 by then 53-year-old Joe Siciliano, is safe because Jan. 19th 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.

  • Land Below the Wind: Inserting Dominance
    Greetings from MIMMA! LAND BELOW THE WIND: INSERTING DOMINANCE Kota Kinabalu, 11th APRIL 2015 – The unprecedented adrenaline rush of mixed martial arts seamlessly merged with the spine-tingling and shocking intensity is what drives the Malaysian Invasion Mixed Martial Arts team to continue our journey back to East Malaysia in the hunt for more Borneo warriors. Talents are abundant in Sabah, the land below the wind, and they are ready to bring on the storm. Sabah’s MMA talents are impressive with the likes of MIMMA Season 1 Heavyweight Champion, Adrian Tham, MIMMA Season 1 Lightweight Champion, Allen Chong, the current Heavyweight Champion, Darren Low, Malaysian MMA princess, Ann Osman and AJ Pyro, Malaysian MMA Champion. Expectation is very high as the current MMA roster for the state is tremendously remarkable. These big names plus all the other MMA talents yet to be discovered in Sabah will surely the tryouts an unforgettable event. Jason Lo stated, “What better place to find MMA talents than in Sabah? The state has already proven that it can produce excellent fighters with the likes of Adrian Tham, Allen Chong, AJ Pyro, Ann Osman and the monstrous Darren Low. There are more talents yet to be discovered in Sabah and we will make sure those talented ones will show up for the tryouts.” He added, “Personally I do believe that the MIMMA3 Sabah tryouts will be huge solely based on the MMA alumni that the state currently has. Not forgeting all the MMA gyms that are available there which are equipped with trainers who are well known in this sport”.

Paul Gift Abstract This paper investigates the effect of a change in cage size on fighter performance outcomes in Zuffa-owned mixed martial arts (MMA) promotions. Variation in cage size is observed through different events over time in the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) and World Extreme Cagefighting (WEC). Results suggest that smaller cages lead to more fight finishes (knockouts and submissions) and higher rates of distance knockdowns and choke attempts, all exciting outcomes for viewers. But they also lead to a higher proportion of time with fighters pressed against the cage, a position some viewers may dislike.

  • Golden Boy Promotions In
    GOLDEN BOY PROMOTIONS IN ASSOCIATION WITH ZR ENTERTAINMENT SIGNS MULTI- FIGHT DEAL WITH OLYMPIC GOLD MEDALIST AND FORMER THREE- DIVISION WORLD CHAMPION YURIORKIS GAMBOA LOS ANGELES (Jan. 23, 2017) – Building on its record of signing and promoting the best of the best, Golden Boy Promotions – in association with ZR Entertainment — today announced a multi-fight deal with former three-division world champion and Olympic Gold medalist Yuriokis “El Ciclón de Guantánamo” Gamboa (25-1, 17 KOs). The Cuban standout, who has defeated a who’s who of champions and contenders throughout his 10-year professional career, will look to add to the title belts he has held in the featherweight, super featherweight and lightweight divisions as he makes another run at championship glory. “I am looking forward to winning yet another world title, and I know Golden Boy Promotions is the perfect place to help guide me,” Gamboa said. “Though I have recently had some long stretches of inactivity, that stops today, and I will take on anyone, anytime, to achieve my goal of recapturing a championship belt.” Gamboa will come out of the gate facing a tall order on March 11 when he squares off with Rene “Gemelo” Alvarado (24-7, 16 KOs) who was last seen defeating contender Jason “Star” Velez. The fight will serve as chief support for the highly anticipated HBO Boxing After Dark card featuring middleweight knockout artist David Lemieux taking on the heavy-handed Curtis “Cerebral Assassin ” Stevens at Turning Stone Resort Casino. Gamboa has been a force in multiple divisions for many years, defeating big names along the way including former world champions Orlando “Siri” Salido, Daniel Ponce De León and the contender Jorge “Coloradito” Solís.

  • Broner and Vargas Fight to Majority Draw
    Jermall & Jermell Charlo Plus Willie Monroe Jr. & Tony Harrison Talk Holiday Memories and Traditions Ahead of Respective Primetime Showdowns Just Days Before Christmas BROOKLYN (December 11, 2018) – As the holiday season ramps up with Christmas just around the corner, twin champions Jermall and Jermell Charlo, plus Willie Monroe Jr. and Tony Harrison discussed their favorite holiday memories and traditions while preparing for their respective showdowns on Saturday, December 22 in Premier Boxing Champions on FOX and FOX Deportes action from Barclays Center, the home of BROOKLYN BOXING™. The Charlo twins have intertwined holiday memories from growing up in Houston and not even Christmas could stop the legendary competitiveness of the twins. “My biggest childhood memories from Christmas was that my brother and I would get bikes and then disassemble them to see who could put it back together better,” said Jermell. “We didn’t tighten up the bikes enough so they would fall apart and we would have to walk home. But we really wanted to see who was the better mechanic and who could put together the cooler bike.” “My brother and I were definitely concerned about our toys on Christmas,” said Jermall. “We would have a big dinner with our whole family and it felt like everyone loved buying the twins gifts. It was always competition to see who had the better toys. I love that now I can give my kids that same feeling on Christmas morning.” A native of Rochester, N.Y., Monroe’s family, which includes his pro boxer father who defeated Marvin Hagler, was close knit throughout Monroe’s childhood.
