Resulta-From-Las-Vegas-Where-Dmitry-Bivol-Upsets-Canelo-Alvarez

LAS VEGAS, NV — The presumption going into tonight’s big fight in Las Vegas between Saul “Canelo” Alvarez and Dmitry Bivol was that Bivol didn’t punch hard enough to worry the Mexican superstar, the consensus #1 pound-for-pound fighter in the sport. But while it was true that Bivol — who was making the eighth defense of his WBA 175-pound title — didn’t have much mustard on his punches, he was far busier and walked away with a well-deserved unanimous decision. The three judges scored it for the Kyrgyzstan-born Russian by identical 115-113 margins.

Canelo, a 6/1 favorite, had the best of the early going. In the second round, he worked the body effectively and it seemed that Bivol would eventually be worn down. But as the bout progressed, the well-conditioned Bivol started putting his punches together, utilizing his faster hands to land many multiple-punch combinations.

The crowd came to life in round 11 when it appeared for a moment that Canelo had imposed his will on Bivol, but that moment proved to be fleeting.  At the final bell, Bivol raised a gloved fist in a symbol of triumph.

Bivol, who reportedly had 283 amateur fights, improved his pro ledger to 20-0 (11) while ending Canelo’s 16-fight unbeaten streak. Canelo was 57-1-2 heading in with 39 kayos and hadn’t lost since 2013 when he lost a majority decision to Floyd Mayweather Jr. His next fight would supposedly come against Gennadiy Golovkin in September on Mexican Independence Day weekend, but that trilogy fight appears to be in limbo.

Co-Features

The co-feature was a 12-round junior welterweight contest between Cleveland’s Montana Love and Guadalajara’s Gabriel Gollaz Valenzuela. Love scored a flash knockdown in the opening round with a sweeping left hook that landed high on Valenzuela’s head. Valenzuela returned the favor in the next round, decking Love with the exact same punch. From that point on, the bout degenerated. There was more posturing and more feints than punches that actually landed. Periodically the crowd erupted in boos.

When the smoke clared, Love (18-0-1) remained unbeaten. All three judges had it 114-112 for the Buckeye. This reporter had it 114-112 for Valenzuela (25-3-1) in a bout that neither fighter deserved to win.

Shakhram Giyasov scored three knockdowns en route to a lopsided decision over Christian Gomez in a 10-round welterweight contest.  Giyasov, 13-0 (9), a 2016 Olympic silver medalist for Uzbekistan, had Guadalajara’s Gomez on the canvas in rounds four, seven, and 10. Gomez had his moments. He came back to stagger the Uzbek after suffering a dubious knockdown in round seven and hurt him again in the next stanza –far and away his best round of the fight– but Giyasov had too much class and won by scores of 98-89 and 99-88 twice.

China’s Big Bang

In the first match on the pay-per-view portion of the show, two-time Olympian Zhilei “Big Bang” Zhang, who is listed at six-foot-six and looks taller and is 39 years old and looks older, whacked out LA’s Scotty Alexander in the opening round. A straight left hand that wasn’t much more than a jab was perfectly placed and Alexander went down hard. The referee didn’t bother to count and it was all over in 114 seconds.

Zhang, who had a 54-pound weight advantage, improved to 24-0-1 (18 KOs) and stirred the pot for a match with Filip Hrgovic, his originally scheduled opponent. Alexander declined to 16-5-2.

Other Bouts

Zhang’s quick knockout converted Marc Castro’s match with Puerto Rico’s Pedro Scharbaai from a walkout-fight into a swing-fight. Fresno’s Castro, reportedly 177-7 as an amateur and now 7-0 (5) as a pro, won all six rounds of this lightweight scrap on all three scorecards, Scharbaii’s record dipped to 7-5-1.

Cancun, Mexico flyweight Joselito Valazquez, a 2016 Olympian, improved to 15-0-1 (10) with a sixth-round stoppage of Colombia’s Jose Soto (15-2). A short left hand brought a sudden conclusion to what had been a good action fight. The punch knocked Soto flat on his back. He got to his feet, but the referee waived it off. The official time was 1:06. Soto’s lone previous defeat had come by disqualification.

Monterrey, Mexico middleweight Aaron Silva (10-0, 7 KOs) scored the best win of his career with a fourth-round stoppage of Alexis Espino (9-1-1). Silva hurt Espino with a left hook to the liver and then followed up on his advantage, pummeling Espino against the ropes and forcing the stoppage which came at 1:17. A local fighter, Espino was a two-time national amateur champion dressing as a small underdog.

Junior lightweight Elnur Abduraimov, who trains in Indio, CA, improved to 9-0 (8 KOs) with a second-round stoppage of free-swinging Miami-based Cuban exile Manuel Correa (11-1). Abduraimov scored three knockdowns before the fight was waived off at the 2:43 mark of round two. A 27-year-old southpaw who has the same management as Dmitry Bivol, Abduraimov had his first seven pro fights before representing Uzbekistan in the Tokyo Olympics.

In the opener of the nine-bout card, Guadalajara’s 19-year-old junior welterweight prospect Fernando Molina had his hands full with San Diego’s Ricardo Valdovinos (8-2) but prevailed on a split decision. A knockdown made the difference with Molina winning by a 57-56 score on two of the cards.

Seasons Beatings from Philly where Local Fighters of Note are in Action This Weekend

Seasons Beatings from Philly where Local Fighters of Note are in Action This Weekend

Tomorrow night (Friday, Dec. 8) begins a nice stretch of live boxing in the Philadelphia area after a relatively quiet fall schedule. These shows will wrap a bow on the 2023 fight schedule for the Delaware Valley with a slate of shows already scheduled for the early part of the upcoming new year.

This sudden boom, well overdue, is good for the Delaware Valley, for its fighters and its fight fans. So, while these shows aren’t large-scale, they are a great way for fight fans to learn about fighters they may see competing on those larger shows in the future.

Let’s look at what exactly fans are in for with the final shows of 2023.

Friday, December 8th – Wind Creek Events Center, Bethlehem, PA (Kings Promotions)

Jesse Hart (29-3) vs. Jeyson Minda (14-7-1) tops a massive 11-fight card. For years now, Marshall Kauffman’s Kings Promotions has put on successful shows in the Philadelphia region. Not only do they hit the mark from a commercial standpoint, but his shows always have entertaining fights where the result could go either way and this show should be no different.

Jesse Hart (pictured with Jarrett Hurd) finds himself somewhat in limbo in the sport. Staying active and keeping his tools sharp is crucial for Hart to continue to keep his name out there and work his way back into the rankings.

A powerful fighter who often finds himself in engaging battles, Hart’s three defeats happened against only two fighters — Gilberto Ramirez (twice) and Joe Smith, both former world champions. Since his last setback in 2020, Hart has won three fights on the local scene while enduring some setbacks outside of the ring due to hand injuries. Released from his contract with Top Rank, Hart finds himself in the position where his name and pedigree (he’s the son of former middleweight standout Eugene “Cyclone” Hart) coupled with a string of quality victories could open the door to another crack at a marquee name in the super middleweight or light heavyweight division.

Former super welterweight king Jarrett Hurd (24-3) takes on Tyi Edmonds (14-5). In his most recent fight back in March, Hurd returned to the ring after a long absence and was shockingly stopped in the tenth round by Armando Resendiz.  Against Edmonds, Hurd looks to prove that he still has elite-level abilities as he too tries to work his way back to the top. A much-needed victory would start that process while a third defeat in a row, especially if it’s physically taxing, would all but mark the end of having his name mentioned anywhere near the division’s best.

Julian Gonzalez (11-0-1) is a talented Kings Promotions fighter who packs a punch, especially for a super featherweight. The 22-year-old Reading, PA native continues his growth against Texas journeyman Juan Antonio Lopez (17-15-1). If successful, Gonzalez will set himself up for a bright 2024 that should see him face quality fringe contenders as well as other prospects which will lead to bigger fights down the road.

Saturday, December 9th – Showboat Hotel, Atlantic City, NJ (Champions Sports and Entertainment)

Philadelphia fan favorite Joey “The Tank” Dawejko (26-10-4, 14 KOs) is staying busy in the twilight of his career. He’s 3-0 thus far in 2023 which includes two exciting victories over Colby Madison (their first fight, a bruising tiff, will most likely be the 2023 Philadelphia Fight of the Year). On Saturday he returns to the ring to defend his WBC USA heavyweight title in an 8-round battle vs. Jesse Bryan (21-7-2, 16 KOs) of Jefferson City, Missouri. This fight headlines a nine-bout show by CSE which is trying to revive boxing on the boardwalk.

In the co-main, Glassboro, NJ native Derrick Webster (29-4-1) will take on the always durable Cleotis Pendarvis (22-19-2) in an 8-round battle of super middleweights.

Liverpool, NY super lightweight Bryce Mills (13-1, 4 KO) looks to add to his 7-fight winning streak when he battles the durable Tackie Annan (15-10) in a fight scheduled for six rounds. Mills has continued to grow his fan base in the northeast by taking part in action-packed fights from the opening bell. His fans tend to travel well and Saturday looks to be no different as a large contingent of his fans are expected to turn up in Atlantic City to support their young charge. It also helps that Mills, like Dawejko, has teamed up with Hall-of-Fame promoter J. Russell Peltz to help guide his professional career.

Edward Donovan (7-0), a super welterweight prospect from Limerick, Ireland, puts his undefeated record on the line when he battles tough Jetter Burgos (6-1, 5 KO) from the Bronx, NY. Puerto Rican lightweight Joey Borrero (11-1, 9 KO), along with super middleweight prospect Cali Box (2-0) from Franklin Township, NJ, will appear in separate fights.

Date TBD– 2300 Arena, Philadelphia, PA (R&B Promotions)

Tevin Farmer (32-5-1) and Patrick Okine (21-6-2) were slated to meet in the main event last Friday, Dec. 1, on a show at the always-fun 2300 Arena. At the last minute, the show was postponed. An e-mail announcing the unfortunate postponement stated that the show would be rescheduled soon. While a new date has yet to be locked in, all signs point toward the show coming to fruition at the close of 2023 or early in 2024.

A former IBF world super featherweight champion, Tevin Farmer was set to make his third appearance of 2023 as he continues to shake off the ring rust that formed after a much-needed break and continue his push toward becoming a two-time world title-holder. It’s crazy to think, but it’s already been more than three full years since Farmer lost his title to Jojo Diaz in January of 2020.

Farmer, who had a late start in the sport, turned pro without the glitz and glamour that accompanies a highly decorated amateur, but fought his way to the top, beating the odds to achieve his life’s dream of championship glory. His break from the sport following his defeat to Diaz was needed to reenergize him from both a physical and mental standpoint.

In Okine he will find himself in the ring with a sturdy opponent that has faced some of the top contenders in and around the lightweight division. “I wanted Tevin [Farmer] to stay active and keep sharpening his tools and Okine provides that opportunity for him,” stated Alex Barbosa, the promoter/matchmaker. “Okine is always tough and comes to win, which is just what Tevin needs at this point of his career.”

With the lightweight division having had a changing of the guard at the top in terms of the championships, Farmer, 33, just may get that second chance at the top of the mountain. And if he continues to stay active while racking up solid victories, it may come sooner rather than later.

Ebanie Bridges Poised to Defend Her Title and Boost Her Brand in SanFran This Weekend

Published

on

Ebanie-Bridges-Poised-to-Defend-Her-Title-and-Boost-Her-Brand-in-SanFran-This-Weekend

Ebanie Bridges opposes late sub Miyo Yoshida on the undercard of Saturday’s Matchroom card in San Francisco featuring the WBC lightweight title fight between Regis Prograis and Devin Haney. It’s doubtful that Bridges vs. Yoshida will steal the show (Prograis vs Haney is a compelling match-up), but it’s a stone-cold lock that Bridges vs. Yoshida will steal the weigh-in. It goes at 1 pm Friday at the Chase Center and is open to the public.

This is all Bridges’ doing. She can fight more than a little, as Damon Runyon would have phrased it, but is best known for turning up at weigh-ins in lingerie so sexy that Matchroom honcho Eddie Hearn averts his eyes to keep from blushing. Others can’t keep their eyes off the 37-year-old, well-endowed Australian and on Friday the paparazzi will crash the scene to capture images that will be all over the internet within hours.

This doesn’t sit well with a lot of people. Former opponent Shannon Courtenay, who saddled Bridges (9-1, 4 KOs) with her only defeat, chastised her for selling their fight for the wrong reasons and disrespecting the sport. Her most recent opponent, Shannon O’Connell, called her a skank and other terms of derision unfit for a family newspaper.

Bridges stopped her in the eighth round in what is her most gratifying win to date. “She made it personal,” says Ebanie. “It felt good to make her eat her words.”

Bridges, who set a withering pace, was making the first defense of the IBF bantamweight title she won with a comprehensive 10-round decision over Argentina’s long-reigning Maria Cecilia Roman. Shannon O’Connell, a fellow Aussie, entered that bout on an 8-fight winning streak that included hard-earned decisions over Australian standouts Taylah Robertson and Cherneka Johnson.

So, although Bridges vs O’Connell was contested in Leeds, England, it was something of the culmination of an Australian round-robin tournament, and it would be Ebanie Bridges that emerged as the Queen Bee.

Bridges has a platform on Only Fans. Known for its “adult” content, the web site is also a place where B-list celebrities go to monetize their fan base by promising a closer look into their personal lives. For attractive female celebs, that usually means displaying more skin that can be found in generic publicity photos, but well short of hard-core. Current Only Fans performers include recording artist Cardi B, actress Denise Richards, the former spouse of Charlie Sheen, actress Drea de Matteo, best known for portraying Adriana on “The Sopranos,” former “Baywatch” sex symbol Carmen Electra, boxer Mikaela Mayer, and former Miss USA Shanna Moakler who shares a daughter with Oscar de la Hoya.

Women that profit from cheesecake, to use an old word for racy photos, aren’t known for having the brightest bulbs between their ears but Bridges, despite embracing her nickname, the Blonde Bomber, doesn’t fit the stereotype. She’s no bimbo.

Ms. Bridges has two college degrees, an undergraduate degree in math and a master’s in secondary education. In her spare time, she finds solace in playing the piano and in drawing, a skill that she inherited from her father, a painter and commercial artist.

In her drawings, she is partial to British soccer coaches and athletes, in particular boxers. Some of her photos are embedded in her smart phone. These, I can attest, are very good. There was no mistaking her drawing of Sugar Ray Robinson. It ranked right up there with Stanley Weston whose illustrations adorned the covers of 57 issues of The Ring magazine.

Bridges is her own best publicist. It’s an attribute she shares with UFC superstar Conor McGregor.

It comes as no surprise to learn that they are well-acquainted. Bridges and McGregor sat together at the first fight between Katie Taylor and Chantelle Cameron. She is a spokesperson for the latest product that McGregor is pushing, Forged Irish Stout, a brand of beer that debuted at the Black Forge Inn, the Dublin pub that McGregor owns.

“I love Conor,” she says, “he’s lovely,” a rather odd adjective to apply to a man who once attacked a bus with a metal barricade at a UFC media event in Brooklyn, injuring three people.

“He’s great for my brand,” says Bridges of McGregor, “and I’m great for his brand.”

Like it or not, this is the new world order. This reporter is old enough to remember when colleges and universities had football teams. Now they have football franchises, which isn’t quite the same. A franchise requires a well-oiled marketing department to enhance the value of the brand.

Bridges got her first crack at a world title (the WBA version held by Shannon Courtenay) after only five pro fights against opponents who were collectively 12-25-5. Her opponent on Saturday, Miyo Yoshida, sports a 16-4 record and is coming off a loss.

This is fodder for critics of female boxing but, make no mistake, Bridges would be a tough out for any female bantamweight in the world and she has paid her dues. She had 30 amateur fights after previously training in karate, kickboxing, and Muay Thai. (In fairness to Matchroom’s matchmaker, he salvaged Saturday’s date for her, securing Yoshida after three previous opponents fell out.)

Looking ahead to 2024, Bridges envisions fighting England’s Nina Hughes, the WBA belt-holder, and then Denmark’s Dina Thorslund who owns the other two meaningful pieces of the bantamweight title. A match with Thorslund (currently 20-0, 8 KOs) with all four belts on the line would be a blockbuster and, by then, should it transpire, the Blonde Bombshell would undoubtedly be one of the most well-known boxers in the world.
