WBC International Championships Dear Don José … I will be missing you and I will never forget how much you did for the world of boxing and for me. Mauro Betti The Committee decided to review each weight class and, when possible, declare some titles vacant.

Joe DeGuardia In a clash of undefeated cruiserweights, Constantin Bejenaru (12-0, 4 KOs) recovered from a trip to the canvas to outpoint Stivens “Superman” Bujaj (16-1-1, 11 KOs) over ten rounds. The vacant WBC International and WBC Continental Americas titles were on the line. The southpaw winner was giving away a bit of height to Bujaj, but still able to push forward with a style that Bujaj found difficult to solve. Bejenaru was taking the fight to Bujaj, but he suffered a bad fifth when a left hook from the latter put him down for the count. He fought his way out of that minor crisis and his case was helped when Bujaj lost a point in the ninth for hitting on the break. Despite a bad cut over his left eye, Bejenaru turned out to be a clear winner. Scores 97-91 from all three judges for Bejenaru. The 32-year-old Moldavian-born Bejenaru wins the vacant WBC International and Continental Americas titles. He did his boxing for Romania as an amateur winning five national titles, a gold medal at the World Combat Games, competing at the 2005, 2007 and 2009 World championships and taking medals at both the European and European Union Championships. That long stint as an amateur probably means he had to shed his vest earlier, as he showed against Bujaj he can be a name in this division in the pro ranks. “Superman” Bujaj, 26, moved from Albania to New York when he was only six months old and as an amateur was New York Golden Gloves champion in 2009 and 2010. He lost his unbeaten record and has some rebuilding to do after this performance against Bejenaru. Bujaj is a talent, but that is not enough at this level if he does not properly train. Promoter Joe DeGuardia had these comments on the fight "I knew this would be a very hard fight for Constantin but I was very confident he would come out on top which he did. He fought a very smart fight and we expect big things from him in the near future".

Hyppolite had edges in height and reach, but Yildirim quickly took Championship’s promoter: the Canadian to the ropes with a stiff jab and was firing hard hooks to head and body. Hyppolite tried to counter, but Yildirim just walked through the punches and hurt him with Ahmet Öner two left hooks to the body. The Turkish fighter continued to pressurise Hyppolite banging WBC International SuperMiddle weight home left hooks and right uppercuts in the first round. The second round was almost the Silver vacant Championship same, although Hyppolite threw and landed more counters. Yildirim was living up to his “Robot” nickname just walking forward driving Hyppolite around the ring and scoring with short hooks and uppercuts inside. Hyppolite tried to stand and fight in the third but Avni Yildirim TURKEY WBC #4 crunching body punches and uppercuts were draining his resistance and a short left hook followed by a clubbing right to the head sent him tumbling across the ring and down on his W TKO 3 2’ 44” back in a corner.

  • Moore-Medina Headlines ‘
    Moore-Medina headlines ‘Changing The Game’ in Boston BOSTON (August 13, 2013) — Undefeated Cleveland light middleweight Michael Moore (12-0 (6 KOs) will headline the “Changing The Game” professional boxing card, presented by Big Six Entertainment in association with Danny Kelly Promotions, on Saturday, September 7 (special 5 p.m. ET start) at The Royale Nightclub Boston (formerly The Roxy), located in the downtown theater district. “We are excited about coming right back to The Royale Boston,” Big Six Entertainment president Artie DePinho said. “The combination of New England fight fans and the venue created an electric atmosphere at our last event. We are putting together another night of can’t-miss entertainment and I encourage everybody to get tickets early.” The fast-rising Moore, who fights out of the same city that has produced contemporary world-title contenders such as Willie Nelson and Miguel Gonzales, will face face the toughest test of his young professional career, Jose “Stinger” Medina (18-13-1, 7 KOs), in an eight-round bout. Media is considered a gatekeeper whose record is deceiving because so many of his fights have been in his opponent’s backyard, many on short notice. Medina, fighting out nearby Quincy (MA), is coming of a win by six-round decision over Allen Conyers (12-8) in July. The 30- year-old Mexico-born fighter has upset 17-1 Issac Rodrigues (KO4) and he fought world champion Joachim Alcine to an eight- round draw in 2011, in which most observers felt Medina deserved the decision. Medina, who has only been stopped twice in 32 fights, has been the distance against world-class opponents such Fernando Guerrero, Bronco McKart and Matthew Hatton, as well as prospects Lamar Russ and Nick Brinson.

Born and raised in Manchester, Fury weighed just 1lb at birth after being born three months premature. His father John named him after Mike Tyson. From Irish traveller heritage, the“Gypsy King” is undefeated in 28 professional fights, winning 27 with 19 knockouts, and drawing once. His most famous victory came in 2015, when he stunned longtime champion Wladimir Klitschko to win the WBA, IBF and WBO world heavyweight titles. He was forced to vacate the belts because of issues with drugs, alcohol and mental health, and did not fight again for more than two years. Most thought he was done with boxing forever. Until an amazing comeback fight with Deontay Wilder in December 2018. It was an instant classic, ending in a split decision tie. Outside of the ring, Tyson Fury is a mental health ambassador. He donated his million dollar purse from the Deontay Wilder fight to the homeless. This book is dedicated to the cause of mental health awareness.
