Nov. 15 Iron Mike Productions show at Seminole Hard Rock canceled‏






The World Boxing Council (WBC) has announced its World Cup Tournament has been postponed, resulting in the cancellation of the entire Iron Mike Productions-presented show scheduled on November 15, 2013 at Hard Rock Live at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Florida.  The postponement is out of respect to WBC president and World Cup founder, Jose Sulaiman, who is recovering from recent heart surgery.  The event will not be rescheduled and refunds are available at point of purchase.
The main event and co-feature fights, slated to be part of the World Cup's opening round, were going to air live on Fox Sports I.
The WBC issue the following statement:
The WBC has asked the promoters and participants of the WBC World Cup Tournament, which has been the dream of our President Jose Sulaiman, to postpone the inauguration of the tournament as a sign of respect and solidarity for his current medical condition as he recovers from his recent heart surgery.
Jose Sulaiman worked tirelessly for several years to put together the formidable World Cup, which is a tournament between all WBC affiliated federations champions to determine the best of the division, with the winner to become a challenger of the reigning champion.
The postponement would allow our President to be involved in all the activities which he had so passionately dedicated toward its implementation, with the support of the WBC 19s 10 Continental federations.
All our efforts in the WBC will be concentrated in the successful recuperation of Jose Sulaimán, who is presently recovering at the UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles, California.

"I have known Mr. Jose Sulaiman since I was a teenager," Iron Mike Productions president Mike Tyson said.  "His recovery is of great importance to me and I am sending my prayers to the Sulaiman's and the WBC Family. Professionally, we look forward to being a part of the WBC Cup tournament when it is reinstated. In the interim we will continue getting our fighters exciting fights."

HEAVYWEIGHTS ANTONIO TARVER AND MIKE SHEPPARD HEADLINE FOX SPORTS 1 & FOX DEPORTES BROADCAST AS GOLDEN BOY LIVE! RETURNS TO THE BB&T CENTER ON TUESDAY, NOV. 26


Boxing's popular new fight series Golden Boy Live! is back at the BB&T Center in Sunrise, Fla. on Tuesday, November 26 with a stacked card featuring the return of former World Champion Antonio "Magic Man" Tarver facing West Virginia veteran Mike Sheppard in the 10 round main event which will be televised on FOX Sports 1 and FOX Deportes at 9:00 p.m. ET/6:00 p.m. PT. Also, featured on the card will be the Golden Boy Promotions debut of undefeated Cuban heavyweight star Luis "El Mercedez" Ortiz against a fighter to be announced in the co-featured fight that will get Florida fight fans up and cheering from bell to bell.

"I'm looking forward to getting back into the ring and showing the world that the 'Magic Man' is better than ever and ready for the big fights," said Tarver. "This is the perfect opportunity to make a statement at home and I can't wait."

"Beating someone like Antonio Tarver would be career-altering for me," said Sheppard. "I know what he's accomplished in the sport, but I'm hungry for this and you're going to see the best Mike Sheppard yet."

"I have not fought here in Florida in almost two years and this is what my fans have been waiting for," said Ortiz. "It's going to be a big night in Florida and I will be looking for a knockout."

Tarver vs. Sheppard is presented by Golden Boy Promotions and sponsored by Corona and O'Reilly Auto Parts. The BB&T Center doors open at 7:00 p.m. ET and the first bell rings at 8:00 p.m. ET. The FOX Sports 1 and FOX Deportes bi-lingual simulcast will air live at 9:00 p.m. ET/6:00 p.m. PT.


A 1996 Olympic Bronze medalist for the United States, Lutz, Florida's Antonio "Magic Man" Tarver (29-6, 20 KO's) is one of the premier fighters of this era, having dominated the light heavyweight division with his signature wins over Roy Jones Jr., Glen Johnson, Eric Harding and Clinton Woods. Now looking for another world title at heavyweight, the southpaw is prepared to take on and beat all comers.

A 16-year pro, Palestine, West Virginia's Mike Sheppard (21-15-1, 9 KO's) has the veteran experience needed to beat a fighter like Tarver, as he will not be intimidated by any foe in the ring. Winner of six of his last nine bouts, including an August victory over Justin Novaria, Sheppard is amped up to score the upset and get a career-defining win.

Owner of nearly 350 amateur wins, Cuba native Luis "El Mercedez" Ortiz (19-0, 16 KO's) is on the fast track to the top of the heavyweight division and the next step on his journey takes place on November 26. Now making his home in Miami, the 34-year-old southpaw has won 10 fights in three rounds or less and another quick finish will be just what his fans want to see.

THE BATTLE OF BROOKLYN IN ON! Former World Champions Zab Judah & Paulie Malignaggi Set To Fight on Dec. 7 At Barclays Center Live on SHOWTIME


THE BATTLE OF BROOKLYN IN ON! Former World Champions Zab Judah & Paulie Malignaggi Set To Fight on Dec. 7 At Barclays Center Live on SHOWTIME




THE BATTLE OF BROOKLYN IS ON! 
FORMER FIVE-TIME, TWO-DIVISION WORLD CHAMPION ZAB "SUPER" JUDAH TO FIGHT FOR BROOKLYN BRAGGING RIGHTS AGAINST FORMER TWO-TIME, TWO-DIVISION WORLD CHAMPION PAULIE "THE MAGIC MAN" MALIGNAGGI ON DEC. 7 AT BARCLAYS CENTER LIVE ON SHOWTIME® 
PLUS, WBA SUPER WELTERWEIGHT INTERIM CHAMPION
ERISLANDY LARA TO MAKE HIS FIRST TITLE DEFENSE AGAINST FORMER WBA SUPER WELTERWEIGHT CHAMPION AUSTIN "NO DOUBT" TROUT AND 2012 U.S. OLYMPIAN MARCUS BROWNE SCHEDULED TO FIGHT
 Barclays Center will host two of the borough's favorite sons, former Five-Time, Two-Division World Champion Zab "Super" Judah and former Two-Time, Two-Division World Champion Paulie "The Magic Man" Malignaggi, on Saturday, Dec. 7 todecide who is the true King of Brooklyn. The 12-round welterweight bout will be televised live on SHOWTIME (9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT).
"I am happy to be back fighting in front of my hometown crowd," said Judah, who is from Brownsville. "Paulie and I have known each other for a long time and we have a mutual respect for each other, but with this fight on Dec. 7 it is going to be like the ancient Roman days. There has to be a leader and that position belongs to me."
"I have always admired Zab's skills and his resume speaks for itself," said Malignaggi, a native of Bensonhurst. "But this is the 'Battle of Brooklyn' and winning this fight is worth more than any world title." 
"In a year of great fights, I have to say that this one is high on my list of the most anticipated," said CEO of Golden Boy Promotions Richard Schaefer. "Paulie and Zab are two of the slickest, fastest and most charismatic boxers in the world today and when you add in the fact that they're fighting for Brooklyn bragging rights, it's going to be an early holiday gift for boxing fans."
 "Judah vs. Malignaggi promises to be a high intensity chess match between two master boxers," said Vice President of Super Judah Promotions Bill Halkias. "This fight is not only special to Brooklyn boxing fans, but also a highly anticipated fight for boxing fans in general. Who wouldn't want to see two highly skilled and experienced world champion boxers go at it for the right to be crowned 'The King of Brooklyn'? I believe Dec. 7 will be a night to remember."
"We've hosted some great fights at Barclays Center in our first year, but this one is different - this fight is about two Brooklyn-born-and-raised fighters proudly representing their respective neighborhoods," said Barclays Center CEO Brett Yormark. "Paulie and Zab are pros at captivating audiences with their big personalities and boxing skills. We are delighted that they will once again step into Brooklyn's most celebrated ring for what is sure to be another memorable night of boxing at Barclays Center."
"Highly competitive, hard-fought, exciting fights have been the hallmark of SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING all year long, and the December 7 card is no different," said Stephen Espinoza, Executive Vice President and General Manager, SHOWTIME Sports. "If you want tune-ups, appearance fights or mismatches, then look elsewhere.  But if you're looking for evenly matched, meaningful fights featuring four of the most skilled boxers in any division, then the December 7 edition of SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING is a can't-miss."
In the 12-round co-main event, the WBA Super Welterweight Championship is on the line as interim titleholder Erislandy Lara battles former champion Austin "No Doubt" Trout. The Cuban star, Lara, is coming off a 'Fight of the Year' candidate in his 10th -round title-winning stoppage of Alfredo Angulo in June, but the gifted Trout is hungrier than ever to regain his world title. Additionally, 2012 U.S. Olympian Marcus Browne, who will be featured at Barclays Center for the fifth time in his professional career, will face an opponent to be determined.
"This is a great matchup with Austin Trout and I respect his skills in the ring," said Lara. "He knows the art of boxing like I do, and the fans will see the sport at its highest level when we fight."
"It's only been a few months, but I already miss being called 'champ,'" said Trout. "So I'd like to thank Lara, Golden Boy, and the WBA for this opportunity to get my belt back and I will get it back this December."
"Barclays Center has truly become my second home," said Browne. "Having the opportunity to fight there more times than any one else is an honor. I look forward to making another appearance there on Dec. 7."
Judah vs. Malignaggi is a 12-round welterweight fight taking place on Saturday, Dec. 7, 2013 at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. The event is promoted by Golden Boy Promotions and supported by Golden Boy Promotions' sponsors Corona and AT&T. The SHOWTIME telecast begins at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT (delayed on the West Coast) and will be available in Spanish via secondary audio programming (SAP). In the co-featured bout, Erislandy Lara defends his interim WBA Super Welterweight Championship in a 12-round fight against Austin "No Doubt" Trout. Preliminary fights will air on SHOWTIME EXTREME at 7 p.m. ET/PT (delayed on the West Coast).
Blessed with the speed, power and ring savvy that long ago earned him the nickname "Super,"Zab Judah (42-8, 29 KO's) has been dazzling fight fans in New York and beyond since 1996, winning world titles at 140 and 147 pounds along the way. Owner of wins against Micky Ward, Junior Witter, Cory Spinks and Lucas Matthysse, the 35-year-old southpaw has also squared off with the best of this era, including Floyd Mayweather, Kostya Tszyu, Miguel Cotto, Amir Khan and Danny Garcia, who he recently extended the 12-round distance in a memorable championship bout in April. But to get back into a title fight, Judah must first successfully defeat Malignaggi.
A former junior welterweight and welterweight world champion known as "The Magic Man,"Paulie Malignaggi (32-5, 7 KO's) built an early reputation for talking a good game, but when the bell rang, his skills backed up his boasts. Despite his flashy style in and out of the ring, the 32-year-old has proven himself to be a true warrior, as evidenced by his victories over Juan Diaz, Lovemore Ndou, Vyacheslav Senchenko and Pablo Cesar Cano, and his battles with Miguel Cotto, Ricky Hatton and Amir Khan. Coming off of a razor-thin split decision loss to Adrien Broner in June, Malignaggi's return to the ring has him more amped up than ever.
After graduating from the legendary Cuban amateur boxing program, Guantanamo's Erislandy Lara (18-1-2, 12 KO's) began his quest for professional glory in 2008, eventually settling in Miami. By 2011, he was one of the sport's unsung heroes, with the only blemishes on his record being a controversial draw with Carlos Molina and a majority decision loss to Paul Williams that most consider to be one of the worst decisions in recent history. Since then, Lara has done his best to take matters out of the judges' hands, going 3-0-1 with technical knockouts of Ronald Hearns and Alfredo Angulo. Lara's win over Angulo in June of this year earned the 30-year-old southpaw the interim WBA Championship, and he will look to defend his interim title on Dec. 7.
Slick southpaw Austin "No Doubt" Trout (26-1, 14 KO's) operated under the mainstream radar for many years, but the Las Cruces, New Mexico native never lost sight of his goals, knowing that he would capitalize on his first big opportunity. That opportunity came in February of 2011, when he traveled to Guadalajara, Mexico to take on Rigoberto Alvarez. In that bout, Trout won a 12-round unanimous decision and the vacant WBA Super Welterweight title, a crown he successfully defended four times with victories over David Lopez, Frank LoPorto, Delvin Rodriguez, and Miguel Cotto. In April, Trout lost his title in a hard-fought match with WBC champion Canelo Alvarez, but this December, the 28-year-old gets his chance to take the belt back.
After blasting through his first six opponents as a professional, Staten Island's "Sir" Marcus Browne (7-0, 6 KO's) proved that he could go the distance as well in his most recent bout, as he pounded out an eight-round unanimous decision victory over Lamont Williams at Barclays Center. On Dec. 7, the 22-year-old former Olympian seeks his eighth consecutive win.

Cesar Javier "Gandarita" Gandara (22-3, 9 KO's) is a five-year pro with tremendous potential that he hopes to begin reaching starting with Saturday's pivotal matchup against unbeaten Ivan Morales.

BERNARD "THE ALIEN" HOPKINS PHILADELPHIA MEDIA WORKOUT QUOTES & PHOTOS





BERNARD "THE ALIEN" HOPKINS
PHILADELPHIA MEDIA WORKOUT QUOTES AND PHOTOS
IBF Light Heavyweight World Champion Prepares To Take On Karo Murat on October 26 at Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City Live on SHOWTIME®
PHILADELPHIA (Oct. 17) - IBF Light Heavyweight World Champion Bernard Hopkinsdebuted his newfound ring persona known as "The Alien" at a media workout yesterday at Joe Hand's Boxing Gym in Philadelphia as he prepares for his Oct. 26 title defense against top rated contender Karo Murat. In true Hopkins fashion, the oldest fighter to win a world title in boxing history showcased his "out of this world" athletic abilities in front of a large amount of media eager to hear what he had to say. The fight will take place at Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City live on  SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING® at 9 p.m. ET/PT (delayed on the west coast).
Below please find quotes from Hopkins, who is also known for his "gift of gab" as well as his in ring talents.
BERNARD HOPKINS, IBF Light Heavyweight World Champion
"Everyone the age of 40 and over had better be on my side on October 26, or I'll kick their ass.
"I'm happy to be here, but that's where the alien comes in. You won't hear the Executioner. You won't see me with my hands crossed. The Executioner is retired. I'm an alien because I am of this world, but I'm not from this world.
"I'm now in another era because I've outlasted so many others. I outlasted the James Toney era, the Kelly Pavlik era and now I'm in the Adrien Broner and Danny Garcia era.
"There is a negative attributed to being different than everyone else, a negative attributed with being blessed and being able to do what I'm doing. You have to be able to walk the walk and talk the talk or you have haters.
"I am of a new era with an old soul...I represent the old soul of doing things the right way. Living the right way. Thinking the right way. Treating my mind, body and soul the right way.
"I know you all have questions to ask me, but there isn't really that much you can ask me. Let me do the talking. What can you ask me that you haven't heard for the last three decades? What are you going to ask me? Are you going to win? Are you ready? If I'm not, I'm going to show up anyway.
"I have been doing this for this long and going through the motions.  After a while going through the motions becomes an instinct.
"Yes I'm ready. Yes I'm hyped, but I'm in control.
"I get to show in action how special I am.  How many people get a chance to prove how special they are over and over and over again? As far as I'm concerned, it's not about how much money you make when you're fighting that makes you special.
"I believe that 10 years from now I am still going to be respected. I don't like to think about this guy being a star or that guy a star. Look back 15 years from now and we will see then.
"I never put all of my eggs in one basket. I never come into the ring with one style. How do you train to beat Bernard Hopkins?
"Karo Murat says he is coming in with youth.
"Karo Murat is smart enough, but dumb enough to say that he has half of my experience. We've heard that before. He has half of the experience. He's coming with two theories.
"He is coming to fight the guy that is 48. Just because the car is a 1965, doesn't mean it's old. Check the mileage, check the engine and then check the wear and tear. The year is old, but if you check the engine is like new.
"I call what I do in the gym, is 'the car wash.' I go all over this gym to keep my mind fresh. Some guys do that with women, I don't. At this age, you want to keep your mind stimulated and not get bored with one thing.
"My weight is good. I'm fine. I have to eat to stay on weight.
"Philly has an old history that isn't coming alive, but is alive. Danny Garcia, Gabriel Rosado, etc. But Philadelphia right now is in a good position regarding boxing. Better than the last three or four years when you have a city that had the riches of some of the greats. The load on my back that I carried for many years is being lifted with guys like Danny Garcia.

PHILADELPHIA MEDIA WORKOUT QUOTES AND PHOTOS
IBF Light Heavyweight World Champion Prepares To Take On Karo Murat on October 26 at Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City Live on SHOWTIME®
PHILADELPHIA (Oct. 17) - IBF Light Heavyweight World Champion Bernard Hopkinsdebuted his newfound ring persona known as "The Alien" at a media workout yesterday at Joe Hand's Boxing Gym in Philadelphia as he prepares for his Oct. 26 title defense against top rated contender Karo Murat. In true Hopkins fashion, the oldest fighter to win a world title in boxing history showcased his "out of this world" athletic abilities in front of a large amount of media eager to hear what he had to say. The fight will take place at Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City live on  SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING® at 9 p.m. ET/PT (delayed on the west coast).
Below please find quotes from Hopkins, who is also known for his "gift of gab" as well as his in ring talents.
BERNARD HOPKINS, IBF Light Heavyweight World Champion
"Everyone the age of 40 and over had better be on my side on October 26, or I'll kick their ass.
"I'm happy to be here, but that's where the alien comes in. You won't hear the Executioner. You won't see me with my hands crossed. The Executioner is retired. I'm an alien because I am of this world, but I'm not from this world.
"I'm now in another era because I've outlasted so many others. I outlasted the James Toney era, the Kelly Pavlik era and now I'm in the Adrien Broner and Danny Garcia era.
"There is a negative attributed to being different than everyone else, a negative attributed with being blessed and being able to do what I'm doing. You have to be able to walk the walk and talk the talk or you have haters.
"I am of a new era with an old soul...I represent the old soul of doing things the right way. Living the right way. Thinking the right way. Treating my mind, body and soul the right way.
"I know you all have questions to ask me, but there isn't really that much you can ask me. Let me do the talking. What can you ask me that you haven't heard for the last three decades? What are you going to ask me? Are you going to win? Are you ready? If I'm not, I'm going to show up anyway.
"I have been doing this for this long and going through the motions.  After a while going through the motions becomes an instinct.
"Yes I'm ready. Yes I'm hyped, but I'm in control.
"I get to show in action how special I am.  How many people get a chance to prove how special they are over and over and over again? As far as I'm concerned, it's not about how much money you make when you're fighting that makes you special.
"I believe that 10 years from now I am still going to be respected. I don't like to think about this guy being a star or that guy a star. Look back 15 years from now and we will see then.
"I never put all of my eggs in one basket. I never come into the ring with one style. How do you train to beat Bernard Hopkins?
"Karo Murat says he is coming in with youth.
"Karo Murat is smart enough, but dumb enough to say that he has half of my experience. We've heard that before. He has half of the experience. He's coming with two theories.
"He is coming to fight the guy that is 48. Just because the car is a 1965, doesn't mean it's old. Check the mileage, check the engine and then check the wear and tear. The year is old, but if you check the engine is like new.
"I call what I do in the gym, is 'the car wash.' I go all over this gym to keep my mind fresh. Some guys do that with women, I don't. At this age, you want to keep your mind stimulated and not get bored with one thing.
"My weight is good. I'm fine. I have to eat to stay on weight.
"Philly has an old history that isn't coming alive, but is alive. Danny Garcia, Gabriel Rosado, etc. But Philadelphia right now is in a good position regarding boxing. Better than the last three or four years when you have a city that had the riches of some of the greats. The load on my back that I carried for many years is being lifted with guys like Danny Garcia.
"Boxing in this city has a few people they can root for. One of them is Gabe [Rosado] who is fighting 'Kid Chocolate' [on October 26].
If you can't make it and you have a TV and you pay your cable bill, you can watch it on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING."

Super Bantamweight Chris Martin Triple Threat: Boxer, Corrections Officer & Family Man‏





Thompson Boxing Promotions returns to Southern California's Inland Empire with another stellar edition of its "Locked 'n Loaded" boxing series this Friday, Oct. 18, at the Doubletree Hotel in Ontario, Calif.  The 8-round main event features the veteran and technical Christopher Martin (27-2-3, 9 KOs) of San Diego against the tough-as-nails Enrique Quevedo (14-6-1, 9 KOs) of Los Angeles.  

The co-feature, also set for 8-rounds and at 122 pounds, pits volume boxer-puncher Juan Reyes (9-1-2, 1 KO) of Riverside, Calif. against Los Angeles-native Daniel Roman (8-1-1, 3 KOs).
Martin made himself available to talk about his upcoming fight against Quevedo, his professional life outside of boxing and the reasoning behind his recent knockout victories.  

You train at the Undisputed Boxing Gym in downtown San Diego with trainers Joe Varga and Sergio Melendrez. How do you feel about your training camp and physical condition heading into Friday's fight?


I feel like my timing and conditioning are where they need to be.  We got a lot of good, quality sparring for this fight.  I prepared for eight rounds, but I don't think it will go to distance. I'm looking for a knockout win.

Three out of your last four wins have come by way of knockout. You don't usually string together that many knockouts. Did you change your style or are you just being more aggressive?

When I was younger I was content with the win, I didn't take too many risks. Now it's more about winning convincingly and putting on a show for everyone. I played it too safe early in my career and was happy with a unanimous decision win. As I've grown older, my opinion has changed. I want to engage more, especially when I feel a knockout coming. I know my record would show more knockouts if I pressed the action a little more. Against Quevedo this Friday, I'm definitely going to make him work.  I'm not interested in scoring a win based on points.  I want a stoppage victory. 

In your fifth professional fight, back in 2007, you fought Enrique's twin brother, Daniel. The judges scored it a draw, but you don't think that was the correct scoring.

To me, there's no way that fight was a draw. I beat him cleanly. I landed the stronger punches. I controlled the fight from start to finish. He never tagged me with anything substantial. That blemish still bugs me to this day 

So is there any added motivation for your fight against Enrique? 

There's definitely a little bit of redemption, a little bit of revenge associated with fighting Enrique. I'm basically going to be punching the same guy in the face because they're twins. I'm not going to make it easy on Enrique. He's going to get a tough fight. I'm going to walk him down and wear him out.  

On top of being a full-time boxer, you also have a career as a corrections officer in San Diego. Plus, you're married and have two young boys. How do you manage all the responsibilities?

It's definitely not easy. You have to maximize your time. I've become more organized and efficient as a result. I've had this busy schedule for more than five years now so it actually feels normal. If I have a long gap between fights, which doesn't happen often, but when I do, I kind of don't know what to do with all the free time.

How does your family handle the busy schedule?  You're up at six am to run four to five miles, you go to work all day, and then from four to six you're at the boxing gym.


It's tough on our kids. I only get to spend about two hours a day with them. Sometimes my wife will complain about me going to sleep early because I usually do my roadwork in the early morning before I go into work. She's very supportive though and I'm very fortunate to have her in my life. There's no way I could do this without her

The company you work for, Corrections Corporation of America, are they supportive of what you do outside of work?

They're very supportive of my boxing career, especially during the week of the fight. I take those days off to relax, spend time with my family and ready myself for the fight. I actually might have a few colleagues from my work attend the fight.

What energizes you?

I try to stay upbeat. My dad actually is a big inspiration; he's a ball of energy. He's really upbeat and positive and that's the way I try to be. There's really no reason to be negative. I think the people that have negative attitudes or a negative outlook do so on purpose because it requires less energy than being positive and warm. 

Doors open at 6:30 p.m. and the first bell rings at 7:45 p.m. The Doubletree Hotel is located at 222 N. Vineyard Dr. Ontario, CA 91764 and can be reached at (909) 937-0900.

"Locked 'n Loaded" is presented by Thompson Boxing Promotions and sponsored by Lucas Oil, in association with Time Warner Cable Deportes.

GOLDEN BOY PROMOTIONS SIGNS BRAZILIAN OLYMPIC BRONZE MEDALIST YAMAGUCHI FALCAO


A 2012 Olympic Bronze medalist and one of the most promising boxers to ever come from the country of Brazil, Yamaguchi Falcao will begin his journey toward professional gold as a member of the Golden Boy Promotions team, the Los Angeles-based promoter announced today.
"Yamaguchi Falcao is a top-tier talent and a major signing for us," said Richard Schaefer, CEO of Golden Boy Promotions. "He has the skill and charisma to become a star and with the entire country of Brazil behind him, the sky's the limit for him."
"I'm honored to be signed with Golden Boy Promotions and I appreciate the faith they have in me," said Falcao. "I promise to train my hardest and fight my best to one day become a world champion."
"The signing of Yamaguchi Falcao is a extremely exciting to me," said Rolando Arellano, Manager of Falcao, "I have had the pleasure and honor of managing the first Brazilian Boxing Olympian in 44 years. This is a historic and epic moment for all and now we move on to the pros. We will use this as an opportunity to rebuild boxing in Brazil."
A native of Vitoria, Espirito Santo, Brazil, Falcao was born into combat sports, as his father was a former mixed martial artist who gave his son the first name of his Japanese trainer, Yamaguchi. Along with his brother Esquiva, Falcao entered the world of amateur boxing, hoping to one day escape the poverty they grew up around.
After facing the likes of "Sir" Marcus Browne, Shawn Estrada, and Ronald Gavril, Falcao fought his way to the brink of the 2012 Olympics at 160 pounds, but with his brother also weighing 160, he decided to move up to eight pounds to avoid possibly fighting Esquiva. The fighting Falcao brothers both went to the London Games, with Esquiva winning a Silver medal and Yamaguchi a Bronze, marking the first time in 44 years that a Brazilian boxer had won an Olympic medal.
The two became instant heroes in Brazil, receiving accolades from the President as well as state politicians. Yamaguchi stayed with the AIBA for a year and has he now decided to toss his hat into the pro ring in an effort to follow in the footsteps of Brazilian greats Eder "Gallo de Oro" Jofre and Acelino "Popo" Freitas.
A date and venue for Yamaguchi's professional debut will be announced at a later date.
