Let us take a look at two former gold medalists and world champions heavyweight Muhammad “the greatest” Ali and “Smokin” Joe Frazier.

They were both born in the south. Ali in Louisville, Kentucky on January 17, 1942 and Frazier in Beaufort in southern Carolina on January 12, 1944.

The phrase would finally move to Modern York before settling to northern Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Ali finally moved to the 70th and Overbrook in Philadelphia, and then Cherry Hill, Modern Jersey.

Their amateur entries were submitted with numerous statistics. Usually, Ali’s amateur career record was granted at 69-6 with 22 detention. The phrase is usually replaced with 38-2 with 37 stops.

Ali went to the Rome Olympics in 1960 in Italy. It was said that he lost in heavyweight attempts with Percy Price, but you can never verify it. At the Olympic Games he won a lightweight gold medal in massive weight, winning all three duels. He would sign a group of investors called Louisville Sponsorship Group.

The phrase was 2-1 in Olympic rehearsals, losing to Buster Mathis, who broke the right middle finger, so the phrase became an alternative at the Olympic Games in Tokyo, Japan in 1964. He shot three knockouts, breaking his left thumb, stopping the Soviet boxer in the third duel. Then he defeated the German decision to win the gold medal. He would sign with a group of investors named Cloverlay, Inc. when he changed a professional.

In March 1968, Frazier 19-0 stopped Mathis, 23-0, in 11 rounds for the empty title of the NSAC champion in Madison Square Garden, Ny.

While the Frazier won the Olympics in 1964, Ali, 19-0, won the heavyweight title in February this year, stopping Sonny Poston, 35-1, after six rounds at the Congress Center in Miami, Florida.

In February 1970, Frazier won the world championship title, stopping Jimmy Ellis after 4 rounds in Madison Square Garden. Ellis shared with Ali (then Cassius Clay) with amateurs who lost to him in Pro.

Ali had 9 title defense before the license was withdrawn in June 1967 due to the refusal to introduce to the army. He was able to go to court, not to prison, but he was unable to extend the boxing license in any state.

From August 1967, when he knocked out Zora Folley, 74-7-4, in Madison Square Garden to October 1970, he was inactive earning in college in universities in all of the United States.

The state of Georgia again installed Ali’s license in September 1970, when he returned to the ring in the next month, stopping Jerry Quarry, 37-4-4, in 3 rounds in Atlanta. Then, in December, he stopped Oscar Bonaveny, 46-6-1, in Madison Square Garden, before he signed a contract with Frazier, 26-0, then world champion in Madison Square Garden in March 1971. Ali was knocked down in the last round, losing his FRAFT decision.

Ali would win his next 10 fights before he lost to Ken Norton, 29-1, because of a divided decision, breaking the jaw in the second round. He won the rematch on Norton, and two fights later defeated the then former world champion, 30-1, in January 1974 for the title of Nabf, a decision at Madison Square Garden.

In the next fight, Ali knocked out the golden medalist of the Olympic 1968, and then the world champion “Gigantic” George Foreman, 40-0, who defeated the phrase for the title. Ali detained a foreman in Zaire in Africa in eight rounds, winning the title for the second time.

After three title stops, Ali, 48-2, he met the phrase for the third time in the Philippines, “The Thrilla in Manila”, and then after 14 rounds, when the Frazier, 32-2, was unable to continue.

The phrase would again be detained by a foreman and would draw Cummings with Floyd “Jumbo” with Floyd, ending his career in December 1981 with a record of 32-4-1 and 27 stops.

Ali would win his next six fights, including another victory over Norton in February 1978, losing from the former Golden Olympic medalist from 1976 Leon “Neon” Spins, 6-0-1, according to a divided decision in Las Vegas, NV. Ali won the rematch, winning a record world title for the third time. After that, he announced his pension, only to return to the ring, losing to Larry Holmes, 35-0, through Stoppage for the first time in his career, after ten rounds in October 1980. Then, in December 1981, he lost his last world champion Trevor Berbick, 19-2-1 in Nassau.

Ali’s daughter, Lail, “She is Singin ‘Ali, 9-0, would defeat the daughter of Frazier, Jacqui, 7-0, in June 2001 by deciding on the majority. It ended at 13-1, winning several smaller titles. Ali ended the 24-0 record before retiring. In 2002 she won the title of Wiba Super Middle Wweight and the title of WBC in 2005 before retiring.

Former UFC Holm master signs MVP, Books Juune Boxing Match

Published

on

The former Bantam champion UFC Holly Holm will return to the boxing ring for the first time in over 12 years.

Holm is the latest woman who joined the growing group of women’s boxers in Jak Paul’s most valuable promotions and will enter the ring against the unbeaten Yoland Vega in a 10-round featherlight fight on Undercard of 28 June fight with Julio Emperor Chavez Jr.

MVP announced an unexpected announcement during the Wednesday Paul-Chavez press conference in Anaheim.

“I am excited about cooperation with the most valuable promotions and a return to the boxing ring,” Holm said by a statement to ESPN. “This modern chapter will be an thrilling journey and I can’t wait for the challenge.”

The fight against Albuquerque, Up-to-date Mexico, Holm, 43 years ancient, began a combat sports career in the boxing ring, gathering a 33-2-3-3-3–3 and winning titles in three weight classes. In 2011, she competed both in boxing and mixing martial arts, but moved only to MMA in 2013. She signed the UFC in 2015 and was renowned for the Champion Ronda Rousey on UFC 193 November 15, 2015, in one of the biggest threads in MMA history.

Gathered a MMA record in the amount of 15-7 in 2011–2024. After her defeat from Kayla Harrison on UFC 300 in April 2024, Holm asked for release from UFC for other projects. With the boxing of women in a much different state than when she competed, where both the exhibition and money improved, Holm decided to give boxing in the last race.

“Holly Holm is the most dominant two-story athlete in history-show. Her achievements in boxing and MMA are incomparable and we are honored to welcome her in the most valuable promotions,” said Bidarian, co-founder of the most valuable promotions. “I remember that Holly shocked the world, destroying Ronda Rousey, and I have no doubt that he has the opportunity to shock the world again in her world champion. But Yolanda is a proud Mexican warrior and has her own plans, which is why she signed a contract with MVP with MVP.”

The fight against Ciudad Obregon, Sonora, Mexico, Vega (10-0, 1 KO) began a boxing pro-boxing career in 2015, but was relatively inactive. However, she fought four times in the last year, and her last trip in March.

“The fight with the champion of this posture on Saturday, June 28 brings me to my goal, which is to become the world champion. I respect and admire her work, but today she has become my next goal, and the goals are to be achieved,” said Vega.

Holm was introduced to the International Gallery of Boxing Fame in 2022, but plans to become a champion again before hanging gloves for good.

“Approaching boxing, I spent most of my MMA career at 135 pounds, and now I have the opportunity to debut in boxing with such a weight,” she said. “Thanks to boxing titles in three classes with a higher weight behind the belt, I am joyful to implement the fourth title in the modern branch.”

Berlanga vs. Sheeraz: The outdoor setting of the Louis Armstrong stadium contrasts with the eliteness of Times Square, but do they resonate?

Place of the event of Edgar Berlang vs. Hamzah Sheeraz from July 12 will be the National Tennis Center of 14,053 places at the Louis Armstrong stadium in Queens, Up-to-date York. It is a place that works for this sport, but not in boxing. Unfortunately, the stadium has many places at the ground level, makes them useless to watch box.

Fans are more concerned about the PPV price of the event than the location. If Turki wants to satisfy fans, he should value an event with a discount, because Berlanga is in the main event.

It is not clear why Turki Alalshikh chose this location for the event on July 12. His smaller place than Madison Square Garden or Barclays Center. The only obvious benefit from the Louis Armstrong stadium is that it will be an external place, such as the previous Turki event on May 2 at Times Square. The roof is extended in the event of a strange rain, sometimes in Up-to-date York. This is one of the green states.

Fights

Edgar Blangga vs. Hamzah Sheeraz – the main event
Shakur Stevenson vs. William Zepeda-Scholar
Alberto Puello vs. Subriel Matias
David Morrell vs. Imam khataev

Ordinary fans will be cheerful that they can participate in a fight, and not exclude, as we have seen in the Times Square event. The crowd for this event was several hundred carefully selected VIPs, many of which wealthy millionaires. The fights were terrible and it was what was happening at a bad match.

Local Berlanga string?

It is doubtful whether this place will be sold, because none of the fights resonates with the crowd from Up-to-date York. Although Berlanga comes from Brooklyn, it is not a enormous enough name to bring a crowd of 14,000. Shakur comes from Newark, Up-to-date Jersey and it is not very popular in this state. Of course, Turki can afford to make the event half -filled, but it is better to be in the formulation of this card at the 5600 places at Madison Square Garden in Up-to-date York. In this way, a sale would be guaranteed.

Berlanga did not do enough in his career to count him, to bring a enormous audience. It would be a better idea for Turk to find a popular warrior who could complain about the event. Shakur would still be a good factor, and Berlanga would be perfect for the third fight in advance.

Chantelle Cameron hopes that the Katie Taylor trilogy is closer after joining Jake Paul’s MVP

Published

on

Cameron Cameron hopes that the long -awaited trilogy fight Katie Taylor is a more realistic perspective after joining Jake Paul’s most valuable promotions.

Cameron (20-1, 8 KO) announced that she had signed a contract with MVP on Monday with another UK star IBF Super Middle Wweight, Savannah Marshall.

After two hits against Taylor (24-1, 6 KO) in 2023 with one victory, Cameron has long called for the third and deciding about the fight.

MVP, which Amanda Serrano also represents, worked closely with Taylor, and their third fight for July 11 in Modern York.

Asked if she hopes that moving to MVP can bring her closer to the third fight against Taylor, Cameron said ESPN: “Yes, I think I think I think [MVP] I now have good working relationships with Katie, she fights with Amanda.

“There is no reason that if he sets out in July, what is the excuse not to fight me.

“This is a huge move. Who knows, Amanda can make a decision, but if Katie wins a win, it will be engaging what movement he makes, because I will be with MVP, he knows that MVP will put off the money, so let’s see what he is doing.”

Cameron’s next opponent is to be announced soon, and the undisputed champion of the welterweight champion is equipped with MVP achievements with promoting fighters.

“The evidence is in the pudding with Amanda Serrano,” said Cameron.

“What they did with Amanda is unbelievable … They are changing the game. Their promotion, content, the promotion they do is simply whole.

“They absolutely break it. This is something I wanted to be part of and I didn’t want to miss the opportunity, so they didn’t even have to set me up.”

Because MVP creates a box and the center of their activities, this movement was elementary for Cameron, although he still had robust relations with the former promoter Frank Warren and Queensberry.

“It was just a really positive transition and it is the most crucial thing. It doesn’t happen often in professional boxing, but I had great relationships with Queensbury, and now I will have great relationships with MVP,” she said.

“I think that every boxer should now look at signing a contract with MVP, because they really invest and put time and effort on women.”
