Christina Hammer, World Middleweight Title Defense In Brno on April 5th‏

Christina Hammer, World Middleweight Title Defense In Brno on April 5th

21 years old, and considered the number-one female middleweight in the
world, Christina Hammer is making her third defense of the World Boxing
Federation World title on Thursday April 5 at the Vodova Arena in Brno,
Czech Republic.

Hammer, 11-0 (7), is taking on South African challenger Julie “Queen”
Tshabalala, 4-1-1 (1), on a show promoted by SES Boxing that also features
a championship fight between local hero Lukas Konecny and Frenchman Salim
Larbi.

Born in Novodolinka, Kazakhstan, the nationalized German has become
something of a Globetrotting champion, winning the WBF World title in
Slovenia in February 2011 and defending it in the Czech Republic three
months later before returning to Germany for her second defense last
October. Now she will go back to the Czech Republic for the Tshabalala
encounter.

Julie Tshabalala from Johannesburg is the reigning South African
Middleweight Champion. Making her professional debut in August 2008, she
captured the national title almost exactly a year later with a ten-round
unanimous decision over Bomkazi Klaas. She defended the title the
following year in a rematch with Klaas, and again last summer with a
stoppage over Lilian Molala.

While Hammer has five more professional bouts than Tshabalala, and been in
four title fights compared to the South Africans three, the champion will
do herself a favor by not underestimating her challenger who is known for
her fighting spirit and determination. The Christina Hammer vs. Julie
Tshabalala WBF Women’s World Middleweight title fight will be streamed

live and exclusively to the world via www.bild.de from 8 PM local time.

ShoBox: The New Generation when former undisputed middleweight champion Jermain “Bad Intentions” Taylor Friday April 20

On Friday April 20, DiBella Entertainment, in association with Golden Boy Promotions, will present a special edition of ShoBox: The New Generation when former undisputed middleweight champion Jermain “Bad Intentions” Taylor (29-4-1, 18 KO’s) looks to take another step toward reclaiming the middleweight championship when he takes on the undefeated Caleb “Golden” Truax (18-0-1, 10 KO’s) in a 10-round middleweight matchup. SHOWTIME® will begin live coverage starting at 11 p.m. ET/PT (delayed on the West Coast).

Taylor, who made his successful return to the ring in December on ShoBox after a nearly two-year layoff-scoring an eighth-round TKO over the tough-as-nails Jesse Nicklow-barely took any time off before returning to camp with longtime trainer Patrick Burns. Burns is the man responsible for guiding Taylor from the 2000 Olympics to the undisputed middleweight championship, which he won by dethroning future hall-of-famer Bernard Hopkins in 2005. After an unsuccessful bid in the super middleweight division, Taylor has reunited with Burns as he makes another run toward the middleweight championship. Already Taylor is ranked #6 by the WBO and #9 by the WBC.

“This has been another great camp and I am really looking forward to this fight,” said Taylor. “This is the new-old Jermain. I am back to working really hard, and I am really focused. This fight is another step toward regaining my championship. My body feels great. I know what it takes and what I have to do to become champion again, but first I need to take this kid’s (Truax) zero. I was praying the other day and God told me to go in there and kick this kid’s butt, and that’s exactly what I plan on doing. It is time to either put up or shut up.”

Carlos Takam Stops Botha, To Become New WBF International Heavyweight Champion

Takam Stops Botha, To Become New WBF International Heavyweight Champion

France-based Cameroonian Carlos Takam is the new World Boxing Federation
International Heavyweight Champion after scoring his biggest victory so
far on Saturday night in Noisy-le-Grand, France, stopping former World
Champion Francois Botha in the eleventh round.

The 31-year-old Takam, a 2004 Olympian, improved his impressive
professional record to 25-1 (20), while South African Botha falls to
48-7-3 (29), and could be at the end of the line after an impressive
career that saw him capture IBF and WBF world titles, and included fights
against some of the sport’s biggest names.

Botha fought well in the early rounds, and had his moments against the
lesser experienced hometown favorite, but as the rounds went by the
physical advantage and punching power of Takam took its toll, and he
slowly but surely began to wear the visitor down.

After the bout an ecstatic Takam praised Botha for putting up a good
fight, and promised his fans that the victory is only the first of many
big triumphs to come. It certainly was an impressive performance by the
winner, who could be in line to face WBF World Champion Michael Grant in
the future.

The Carlos Takam vs. Francois Botha WBF International Heavyweight title
fight at Gymnase Jean Richepin in Noisy-le-Grand was promoted by Joseph

Germain.

No Holds Barred: Joel Resnick of RUFF, Martial Arts and MMA in China, World Martial Arts Show Rocks the Bronx

http://nhbnews.podomatic.com/entry/2012-04-01T14_42_48-07_00

On this edition of No Holds Barred, host Eddie Goldman discusses the successful World Martial Arts Show in the Bronx on Saturday, the connection between traditional martial arts and mixed martial arts, and the link of all of these with China, and interviews Joel Resnick, president and co-founder of the MMA company RUFF (http://www.ruffchina.com), based in Shanghai, China.

The World Martial Arts Show and Battle of the Dojos Extravaganza took place Saturday, March 31, at the famed Paradise Theater in the Bronx, New York. After martial arts tournaments during the daytime, the activities in the evening featured a martial arts, music, dance, and fashion show, as well as the presentation of the Life Arts Award to martial artist and actor Michael Jai White. Among the topics commented upon are how the mainstream media ignored this well-attended event, how it was enthusiastically received by its largely African-American and Latino audience, the fashion show which included a wearing of hoodies in tribute to slain African-American teenager Trayvon Martin, the different styles of striking and grappling on this show, the remarks by Michael Jai White, the relationship this event showed between the traditional martial arts and MMA and boxing, and, first and foremost, its importance to the youth.

Many of the organizers of this event are also involved with the practice of Chinese Shotokan Karate. Thus examined briefly is some of the history of how karate originated in China, the relation between traditional martial arts and MMA in China, including the practice of shoubo (手搏), a form of no-holds-barred weaponless fighting some 23 centuries ago, and more recent developments in the People's Republic of China.

This leads us into our interview with Joel Resnick, the president and co-founder of RUFF (Ranik Ultimate Fighting Federation). We recorded it by Skype last Tuesday Shanghai time (Monday New York time).

"In a couple of years, the best fighters are going to be coming out of China," said Joel Resnick in this interview. "Like every other sport, when they get behind it and they really want it, they're going go get it."

We discussed how he got to China from Canada, why they just want to focus on running events in China, how RUFF is the only professional MMA organization sanctioned by the Chinese government through the Wushu Administrative Center which is the governing body of Chinese combat sports, why they adopted the North American unified rules, prefight medicals and fighter safety issues, their plans for a series of fights leading to title fights to crown China's first MMA national champions, their plans for TV and video, and much, much more.

Ju Hee Kim Retains WBF World Title

Ju Hee Kim Retains WBF World Title

South Korea icon and hero Ju Hee Kim showed exactly why she is the light flyweight champion with an emphatic 6th round stoppage over the game Ploynapa Sakrungrueng from Thailand to retain her World Boxing Federation World Title Friday March 30 in Seoul.

Before a packed University Hall of almost three thousand, Kim thrilled the many students at the university where she studied with a dominant display, and improved her impressive record to 16-1-1 (7). Sakrungrueng dropped to
5-2 (0).

After an even and slow paced first round, Ju Hee showed impressive skills
and a good work rate, while Sakrungrueng was always dangerous on the
counter. However, as the fight wore on the champion gained more and more
control, and finally overwhelmed the challenger in the sixth.

Ju Hee will defend again in North Korea at the end of the year. Special
mention must be made of WBF representative Moon Sung for his outstanding
contribution to the excellence of the event. WBF Supervisor in attendance

was president Howard Goldberg from South Africa.

CLETUS SELDIN RETURNS TO BATTLE ON MARCH 31ST AT THE PARAMOUNT

"The Hebrew Hammer" Cletus Seldin heads back to the ring on Saturday, March 31st at Star Boxing's ROCKIN' FIGHTS 3, at The Paramount in Huntington, Long Island.

The 25-year-old Seldin has turned heads in the New York City area with his stunning knockouts in his last three bouts, raising his record to 6-0-0 with five knockouts since turning pro in July 2011.

At ROCKIN' FIGHTS 3, the former bodybuilding champion will face off against Rochester, New York's Marcus Hall, 5-4-1 (2KO's) in a scheduled six round welterweight tilt.

On January 28th at The Paramount, Seldin wasted little time against Tyler Pogline; drilling him to the canvas three times as referee Ricky Gonzalez called a halt to the carnage at the 2:25 mark of the opening round.

Recently signed to Joe DeGuardia's Star Boxing, plans are big for Seldin. "Cletus has the attributes to be very successful in boxing. Only six fights into his pro career and it's already obvious he has world-class knockout power and has a huge following. The fans are turning out in strong numbers and he's impressing them with his knockouts" said DeGuardia.

On October 22nd, Seldin fought on the undercard of the HBO televised Nonito Donaire/Omar Narvaez bantamweight world title bout at Madison Square Garden, "The Mecca of Boxing."

Seldin came prepared, stopping Jose Segura Torres in brutal fashion with Torres hitting the canvas three times towards a second round knockout in front of the sold out crowd of over 4,500 in The Theatre.

CHRIS ALGIERI HEADLINES ON LONG ISLAND SATURDAY NIGHT

"The Fighting Pride of Huntington, Long Island", Chris Algieri has returned home to headline ROCKIN' FIGHTS 3, a world class professional boxing card presented by Star Boxing this Saturday night, March 31st at The Paramount in Huntington, Long Island.

The undefeated Algieri, 13-0-0 (6KO's), will battle Rochester, New York's Winston Mathis, 7-4-1 (2KO's), in the junior welterweight main event.

Although future plans for Algieri include medical school as well as pursuing a world title, he recently returned from his first training camp, joining numerous world champions and contenders in Oxnard, California, under the watchful eye of noted trainer and former lightweight world champion Robert Garcia.

"I went for three weeks and the training was terrific. It seemed like the whole gym had fights coming up this Saturday as do I so we were all on the same schedule" said Algieri.

"The gym has a very electric atmosphere. Most of my sparring came against Brandon Rios and Rolando Reyes. Training alongside world-class fighters like Rios and Kelly Pavlik was a great experience. Kelly and I worked out together and ran every morning and he really pushed me."

About returning to Oxnard, Algieri stated, "Next time I'll go back for a longer period. Although Robert won't be in my corner, his guidance while training out there was a perfect compliment to my trainers, Keith Trimble and Tim Lane."

In regards to fighting at The Paramount for the third straight fight and facing Mathis, Algieri said, "The Paramount is perfect, I've been home for just a couple days and my phone hasn't stopped ringing with people wanting to buy tickets. We've sold it out the last two times and should again this Saturday night."

"I've seen some tapes of Mathis' fights. He's an aggressive boxer who I'm sure is coming to win. But my team has put together a game plan and it's my job to execute it."

The Algieri/Mathis bout headlines the sensational seven bout ROCKIN' FIGHTS 3card.

Women’s MMA Promotion Invicta FC Joins Streaming Party

All-women’s mixed martial arts promotion Invicta FC announced today that their first event will stream live via the promotions website free of charge. The live stream has recently become the way for foreign-based MMA promotions to gain some traction inside the American market. But the Kansas City based Invicta sees it as a way for the new women’s league to reach more local fans.

“The live stream,” said Invicta President Shanon Knapp in a press release, “is the best way to give fans, no matter where they are located, the opportunity to participate and take in the action as it unfolds and, at the same time, establish the forthcoming Invicta website as an online destination for women’s MMA content.”

MMA promotions in the past that have been purely dedicated to women’s divisions have been somewhat flash in the plan in the US, which places Invicta in what is already considered an experimental position. To top it off, Invicta has brought together some of the most well-known free agents in women’s MMA, so its inaugural event will likely not be the most low-cost start up for a new professional promotion.

Invicta FC will debut April 28th at 8 PM EST at Memorial Hall in Kansas City. The first Invicta card is headlined by former Strikeforce champion Marloes Coenen in a rematch with Romy Ruyssen. The bout will also feature former Bellator fighters Jessica Penne and Lisa Ellis-Ward.

Ju Hi Kim Set For Second Title-Defense‏

Ju Hi Kim Set For Second Title-Defense

South Koreas World Boxing Federation Women’s World Light Flyweight
Champion Ju Hi Kim is set to make her second title-defense on Friday March 30 in hometown Seoul, taking on tough challenger Ploynapa Sakrungrueng from Thailand.

26-year-old Kim, 15-1-1 (6), won the WBF World title in September 2010 when she outpointed Jujeath Nagaowa from the Philippines, and successfully defended it last July with a unanimous decision over another Thai, Fahpratan Looksaikongdin.

Ploynapa Sakrungrueng, 5-1 (0), turned professional at seventeen in 2010
after an extensive Muay Thai career, and amazingly fought for her first
title in only her second bout, losing a decision to another Korean,
Yeon-Hee Kim, for a regional strap. Since then she has racked up four
straight victories, and at 19 years old has the advantage of youth on her
side.

WBF President Howard Goldberg will be ringside for the fight, and the
South African is certain it will be well worth the long flight from Cape
Town, saying: “I was in South Korea for Kim’s first title defense, and
it was a fantastic fight. She is a very entertaining fighter, and when you
pair that with the fact that Sakrungrueng is an immensely talented
up-and-coming boxer I think we are in for a treat once again”.

Besides the WBF World title, Ju Hi Kim has also captured a host of other
championships since her debut in 2001 at only fifteen years of age, some
of which will also be on the line against Sakrungrueng.

A sell-out crowd is expected to cheer on the national sporting hero as she
attempts to continue her impressive reign as queen of the Light Flyweights.
