BRITISH CHAMP HASKINS LEADS EXPLOSIVE SUPER FLYWEIGHT PRIZEFIGHTER

Posted on | September 13, 2011 | No Comments


Liverpool to host October 12 show with Sexton, Lyon and Robinson in the mix

British Super Flyweight Champion Lee Haskins tops the bill in a star-studded Prizefighter Super Flyweights at Liverpool Olympia on Wednesday 12 October, live on Sky Sports.

Former English and Commonwealth champ Haskins will be severely tested on the night with St. Helens’ unbeaten English Bantamweight champion Craig Lyon and hotly fancied unbeaten English flyweight champion Ashley Sexton both in action.

Liverpool’s Mike Robinson will be hoping the draw pairs him with Londoner Sexton on home turf, having lost a tight decision to Sexton in April and then drawing with him on the undercard of David Haye’s fight with Wladimir Klitschko in Hamburg.

Merseyside’s third representative in the first six fighters named is unbeaten 23 year-old Ryan Farrag, the 2010 ABA finalist who has won his first four fights in the paid ranks – with the his last two triumphs coming at the Olympia.

Another unbeaten fighter takes the sixth spot as Northampton’s Nathan Reeve, the 21 year-old former England international with four wins to his name in his first year as a pro, two of them by knockout. The boxers taking the final two spots will be announced soon.

“Two of the most exciting Prizefighter’s have been in the lower weights with Super-Featherweights and Super-Bantamweights – I expect this to be an all out war,” said promoter Eddie Hearn. “The lack of depth in the smaller weights means that the line up will feature the very best in the division and the winner can expect to propel himself to a whole new level.”

The 19th edition of Prizefighter takes place on Thursday night at York Hall in Bethnal Green as the Light Middleweight II – the second Prizefighter tournament in a row to be sold-out. Former two-weight World Champion tops the bill which sees the draw done on the night for the first-time and also the introduction of the Prizefighter Prospect – with Ryan “Crash Bang” Taylor making his debut before Prizefighter begins.

Tickets for the Super Flyweights show at Liverpool’s Olympia on Wednesday 12 October are on sale now from Matchroom Sport on 01277 359900 priced £30 unreserved, £50 ringside, £100 VIP.

BELIEVE IT OR NOT! WINKY WRIGHT HELPING TRAIN CHAD DAWSON FOR HOPKINS FIGHT

Posted on | September 13, 2011 | No Comments

Beloved former world champion and one-time Bernard Hopkins opponent, Ronald “Winky” Wright is in camp in the Pocono Mountains in Pennsylvania, serving as a training advisor to former light heavyweight champion “Bad” Chad Dawson, as Dawson prepares to face the current WBC and Ring Magazine Light Heavyweight World Champion Hopkins on Saturday, October 15, at the STAPLES Center in Los Angeles, California.

 

Dawson vs. Hopkins, an evening of elite professional boxing entitled “Believe it or Not”, will be presented by Golden Boy Promotions and Gary Shaw Productions and sponsored by Cerveza Tecate, AT&T and Ripley’s Believe It or Not. It will be produced and distributed live by HBO Pay-Per-View® beginning at 9:00 p.m. ET/ 6:00 p.m. PT.

 

Dawson had been training with the legendary Emanuel Steward for his last fight, a victory over Adrian Diaconu, but geography forced an ending to their partnership and a reunion with former trainer John Scully.

 

“It wasn’t an ugly separation by any means,” explains Dawson’s promoter, Gary Shaw. “I have a world of respect for Emanuel and I know he’s top-notch, but we couldn’t get them to travel to one another, so there was no other choice but to move on. Chad’s training camp is in Pennsylvania. He didn’t want to train in Detroit again for this fight. But with all of his commitments and responsibilities, it wasn’t feasible for Emanuel to stay in the Poconos that long. So they’ve parted ways amicably and John Scully is back in, with Winky Wright providing his expert eye.”

 

So is Wright planning on retiring and becoming boxing’s newest high-profile trainer?

 

“No way,” he laughs. “I’m still a fighter. I don’t feel like being a trainer. I don’t know how to tell somebody to train. I can tell you what you’re doing wrong and stuff like that, but as far as telling them when to get up and run; I’m not really into that. I’m here to just fine-tune little things that John and I feel he needs to work on. John is the coach and we are working together very well.”

 

Wright, who will not be in Dawson’s corner on fight night, says he likes his friend’s chances in this fight. “Bernard is sneaky and crafty, but I think that Chad has a style that can beat him. He’s tall and quick, with a good defense and hand speed. He can move, but he’s not scared to get in there and fight.  Bernard wants to try and take you out of your fight. Chad doesn’t need to do that. He needs to do what we’re showing him and make Hopkins fight our fight. We can win this.”

 

Dawson says the one/two training punch of Scully as head coach and Wright as an advisor is exactly what he needs at this time. “Everything is going great. I couldn’t ask for anything better. I’m in a great position right now. Not only to fight with Bernard, but to work with John Scully who is very underrated as a trainer and Winky who I think beat Hopkins when they fought and is still a great fighter to this day. I’m very excited. I have great sparring partners and it’s going great.”

 

According to Dawson, the reunion with Scully will bring about a renaissance in his career. “Scully knows how to go to get me in shape.  With him in my corner, you will see a return of the Chad Dawson from 2007/2008 in this fight. I am the best light heavyweight in the world and I’m going to prove it.”

 

Scully says even though it came as a surprise, he’s overjoyed to be back to guiding Dawson.

 

“I was very happy, of course, to be asked to come back to training Chad. I’ve always said that training him was one of the most positive experiences of my career and I always felt we had a very good working relationship.”

 

He adds that Wright’s presence in camp is very welcome and the two are working together in harmony.

 

“Winky is here to lend support to a friend in the boxing game in Chad. As a former champion and a great southpaw, Winky’s knowledge obviously speaks for itself, plus he’s been in the ring with Bernard and knows all the little tricks Bernard will try. He has a special insight into the boxing game, and into this fight in particular, that can’t be overlooked. He’s a very good guy, very respectful, doesn’t step on anyone’s toes. He speaks up if he sees something that needs to be spoken about. Everyone here in camp with us plays a vital role. It’s a team effort and everyone here is working towards that one common goal.”

According to Scully, Dawson is showing his hunger to get his title back. “He’s looking perfect in camp so far. He’s a champion at heart and knows what needs to be done to get ready for a fight like this and he’s doing it.

 

In addition to this championship main event showdown, the televised pay-per-view undercard will also feature Antonio DeMarco vs. Jorge Linares in a 12-round fight for the vacant WBC Lightweight World Title and Kendall Holt vs. Danny Garcia in 12-round bout for the vacant NABO Junior Welterweight Title which will also be an eliminator for the number one rating by the WBC and the number two rating by the IBF.

Williams Fired Up For Okoth Showdown This Sunday

Posted on | September 13, 2011 | No Comments

Southern Area Cruiserweight Champion Leon ‘Solid’ Williams gets his first outing of the new season, against Battersea’s fighting fireman Nick ‘The Ox’ Okoth, at the Miranda Carter and Bruce Baker co-promoted ‘Great Expectations’ event at the York Hall in Bethnal Green, London, this coming Sunday.

Williams is seems particularly pleased that Okoth is his opponent on Sunday, as not only has ‘The Ox’ fought all the main players in the division, but Williams also wanted a tough test to prepare for the upcoming English title clash with Tony ‘The Conqueror’ Conquest , which is scheduled for late October.

Following a highly explosive final sparring session, against fellow Johnny Eames managed and co-trained Dutch Cruiserweight prospect Mitchell Balker, at the TRAD TKO Gym in Canning Town, Williams spoke briefly on his preparations and his opponent Nick Okoth. “Just got back from Marbella, been out there training and that, so am good to go and preparations have been perfect.

Yeah Okoth’s been around, he’s fought everyone so it’ll be good to fight me.

He’s fought all the top people, Nathan Cleverly, Tony Bellew, Danny McIntosh, Tony Dodson and that. He’s also fought Tony (Conquest), which is good for me.

I mean, he’s fought Denis Lebedev  and at one stage I want to be at the same level as that guy is now. You know, he fought Okoth, he knocked out Maccranelli so I want to fight the same opponents as him and try and beat them quicker than he did.

I didn’t want to say this but Mitchell (TKO team mate Mitchell Balker) beat him on points so I want to see if I can go one better and stop him. Take his head off, send it into the crowd. Happy days.

He comes to fight, I like that, I like a fight. Team Solid going forward, entertaining the supporters and getting another good win. Team Solid will be everywhere.”

Leon ‘Solid’ Williams versus Nick The Ox’ Okoth headlines the Miranda Carter and Bruce Baker co-promoted ‘Great Expectations’, which takes place at York Hall, Bethnal Green, London on Sunday 18th September 2011.
