American Star Crawford Defends World Title Against Lundy Live on Boxnation AMERICAN STAR CRAWFORD DEFENDS WORLD TITLE AGAINST LUNDY LIVE ON BOXNATION London (14 January) – The next super-star of boxing Terence Crawford’s WBO World Super-Lightweight title defence against Hank Lundy on Saturday 27th February at the iconic Madison Square Garden, will be televised exclusively live on BoxNation. Crawford, a two-time and two-weight World Champion, a big favourite with UK fans’ on The Channel of Champions, returns to action as he looks to elevate into the position of boxing’s main man with Floyd Mayweather retired and Manny Pacquiao soon to be, many experts believe the exciting 28-year-old from Omaha can be that man. A hero in his hometown, Crawford, who sits inside the top ten of boxing’s Pound-for-Pound best rankings, now looks to make that transition when he makes his debut at MSG, known as the “Mecca of Boxing”, where the immortals of the sport have all plied there trade. Undefeated in 27 fights with 19 knockouts, 12 coming inside three rounds, the big-hitting and dangerous Crawford, 28, could have been a potential final opponent for Pacquaio, who instead wisely opted to go for a third fight against rival Timothy Bradley. Crawford, began his title reign when he totally out-classed Scotland’s Ricky Burns in his own backyard in March 2014 to win the WBO World Lightweight title. He then saw off undefeated Cuban Yuriorkis Gamboa, a former Olympic Gold medallist, in nine rounds in the first title defence in June before outpointing tough Mexican and former world title challenger Raymundo Beltran in November in his second title defence. “Bud” started 2015 by stepping up to super-lightweight and destroying number two ranked contender Thomas Dulorme to capture the Vacant WBO Crown with a sixth round stoppage in April, followed by a first title defence against the tough Puerto Rican based Frenchman and number two ranked challenger Dierry Jean in ten rounds last November. His challenger, Lundy, hails from the mean streets of Philadelphia and brings the old school fight mentality of the greats who have come out of the fighting city like Bernard Hopkins and Joe Frazier, into his showdown against Crawford. Never to shy away from a fight, his challenger “Hammerin” Lundy has defeated former world champions including David Diaz and Richar Abril as well as contenders Olusegan Ajose, Patrick Williams, Dannie Williams and Angelo Santana in his 32-fight career with 26 wins, five losses, one draw and 13 knockouts. In his last fight he captured the WBC Continental Lightweight title with a fifth round stoppage of Carlos Velasquez and is rated number eight in the world by the organisation. At the recent fight announcement Crawford and Lundy clashed and both are promising an exciting fight. “I will show the world I am the best fighter at 140 pounds,” Said Crawford. He added, “Lundy runs his mouth too much. He’s about to get hurt real bad. But Lundy can fight. He will battle.” Lunday retaliated, “This is the type of fight I have been waiting for. The last couple of fights I have beaten guys but didn’t get the fair shake. If you’re a true fan of boxing, you know I belong in the ring with the best fighters in the world. I’m the type of guy that no one wants to fight, because I am the real deal. On February 27th, I am coming to Madison Square Garden to fight Terence Crawford, and on the 28th I’ll be leaving with his belt.” Also on the exciting card another potential boxing super-star Felix Verdejo aims to break through into the mainstream when he defends his WBO Latino Lightweight title against big- hitting Brazilian Williams Silva in his return to MSG. The red-hot undefeated talent known as “El Diamante” fights out of San Juan, Puerto Rico, and aims to become the next big name fighter from the famous fighting island that has produced countless greats like Miguel Cotto, Felix Trinidad, Wilfredos Gomez and Vasquez, Hector Camacho and many more. Fire-fisted Verjdejo has stopped eight of his last ten opponents inside the distance and this will be the third defence of his title. He won the belt with a fifth round knockout of Marco Lopez in April 2014 and then outpointed undefeated contender Ivan Najera in his first defence. Last time out in December he smashed Josenilson Dos Santos inside two rounds.

  • Boxing: Rising Stars Expected to Shine Bright in NYC
    Boxing: Rising Stars Expected to Shine Bright in NYC Author : Robert D. Cobb This Saturday, HBO Boxing will be live from the city that doesn’t sleep, New York City, as Top Rank Promotions will be presenting a doubleheader of two rising stars in the sport of boxing. Omaha’s finest, Terence Crawford, steps into the ring and defends his WBO junior welterweight title on the line against Philadelphia’s own, Hank Lundy, and also in what will be the fight that gets the crowd most hyped, the face of the future of Puerto Rican boxing, Felix Verdejo, will be facing off against William Silva. Terence Crawford (27-0 with 19 KOs) is a highly skilled boxer that is one of the new rising stars of the sport. He has dominated every one of his opponents, he has put on good live shows in his hometown of Omaha, and most importantly, he seems to want to be “The guy”. Crawford has taken a step back this year from the run he was on in 2014 when he faced, and beat, Ricky Burns, Yuriorkis Gamboa, and Raymundo Beltran, and was mentioned in everyone’s list as a fighter of the year candidate. However, since then, He has faced 2 opponents in Thomas Dulorme and Dierry Jean that really got no buzz and has someone halted the rise he was having. Given the fact that the 140 lb division may not be as full with names as the 147 lb welterweight division, Crawford may be forced to dispense with the guys in front of him as fast as possible and move up by the start of 2017.

  • Thomas Dulorme Gives Back to His Community in Puerto Rico

On this afternoon, the NABF Jr. Welterweight champion made his own charity event dedicated to the Community institution of “La Perla de Gran Precio”, a needy neighborhood in the barrio of Obrero, Santurce. “Since I’m training in California, I’m always thinking on how to help my people from Puerto Rico,” said an excited Thomas Dulorme, who is promoted by Gary Shaw Productions, and managed by Cameron Dunkin. “Today I provided food to those in need and it was an amazing experience that I will never forget. Soon I’ll be visiting more institutions.

  • In the United States District Court for the District of Nebraska
    8:17-cv-00011-JMG-SMB Doc # 123 Filed: 04/09/18 Page 1 of 16 - Page ID # <pageID> IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF NEBRASKA MITTENDORF SPORTS, a Maryland Sole Proprietorship, 8:17-CV-11 Plaintiff, vs. MEMORANDUM AND ORDER TOP RANK, INC., a Nevada corporation, and TERENCE CRAWFORD, an individual, Defendants. The defendants in this case are successful boxer Terence "Bud" Crawford and his promoter, Top Rank, Incorporated. The plaintiff is Mittendorf Sports, a sole proprietorship of Chris Mittendorf (collectively, Mittendorf). At issue is a 2011 contract between Mittendorf and Top Rank that allowed Top Rank to become Crawford's promoter: Mittendorf claims that Top Rank breached that contract by not paying Mittendorf a percentage of the purse from Crawford's championship title defenses, as Mittendorf claims the contract requires. Specifically, Mittendorf claims the contract gives him a piece of the action any time Top Rank promotes a Crawford title defense. Top Rank, on the other hand, claims the contract only gives Mittendorf a cut of a title defense promoted pursuant to a specific 2011 promotional rights agreement between Top Rank and Crawford—a promotional rights agreement that, Top Rank points out, ended in 2014. But the Court agrees with Mittendorf's reading of the relevant contractual language and will, therefore, deny Top Rank's motion for summary judgment. 8:17-cv-00011-JMG-SMB Doc # 123 Filed: 04/09/18 Page 2 of 16 - Page ID # <pageID> BACKGROUND1 In 2010, Crawford entered into a promotional rights agreement with TKO Boxing Productions, a Nevada boxing promoter.

  • Subdued Lundy Prepared for “
    Subdued Lundy prepared for “war” against Crawford NEW YORK (Feb. 25th, 2016) — The playful ribbing between Hank Lundy and Terence Crawford that began in mid-January continued at Thursday’s final press conference when Crawford’s trainer, Brian McIntyre — a former fighter himself — walked to the podium at Chase Square with a T-shirt that read, “I went to the Madison Square Garden and all I got was knocked out by Terrence Crawford,” an obvious jab at Lundy. “These will be available for Hank and his team following the fight,” McIntyre deadpanned. Team Lundy, led by CES Boxing president Jimmy Burchfield Sr., Lundy’s promoter, enjoyed a quick laugh at its own expense, with Burchfield taking the shirt, folding it carefully and placing it on his lap while McIntyre continued his monologue, merely an extension of the month-long social media war between the two sides. Though the verbal back-and-forth has helped turned Saturday’s event into a near sellout — Top Rank vice president Carl Moretti reported only 23 tickets remain at the box office — Lundy (26-5-1, 13 KOs) is leaning on a more powerful source of motivation heading into the biggest fight of his life Saturday night in New York City. “My babies are going to be right there,” Lundy said, referencing his daughters, Amiriah, 7; Adriana, 8; Amari, 10 and Aniyah, 12. “This is the first time I’m going to battle in front of my four little queens and God knows the electricity, every punch I hit you with, you’re going to feel Philadelphia, you’re going to feel my pain, my struggle.
