ReplyDeleteI thought he was from Lanham? He fought in Dc a lot as a amateur.
ReplyDeleteI believe he trains in Alexandria but is living in Lanham. That's what I was told originally.
ReplyDeleteWhere in Alexandria
ReplyDeleteWhy no results of tonight fights,?
ReplyDeleteBecause I wasn't there at the card. As I said before, Juan Marshall was blogging live on his site, ProAm Fight Talk. I have now, based on his posting, listed the results.
ReplyDeleteI believe Polischuk is at Raw Assassin Gym.
Clueless management
ReplyDeleteWasn't expecting Polischuk to lose this early in his career. Also wasn't expecting Jerry Forrest to lose this early either. Hope they both continue to train and work their way back.
ReplyDeleteThat is why trainers and managers have to bring these young fighters along slowly to establish confidence and experience. It takes time to build up a fighter and when you rush or think that you are better than what it really is, this is the result that you get. Good fighters with early losses. Many people think they know the business of boxing but really don't. Only know how to down talk others.
ReplyDeleteYori and forest are fighters and want to fight real fights.
ReplyDeleteTake my hat off to them
You don't have to have a perfect record to get your big shot.
Yori's camp must not keep up with amateur boxing. Arturo has been fighting a while and fought the likes of Alan Russell and Alantez Fox. He hung in there with both. Some of these coaches aren't doing their homework, or don't know their fighters. I would of expected Yori to lose that one
ReplyDeleteYeah, I googled/youtubed Arturo and he looked solid from what I saw of his previous fights. Yuri was matched tough but so was Arturo. Don't forget that Yuri cleaned up the 140lbd division as an amateur and his only loss I can recall was to Mike Reed.
ReplyDeleteIf he lost to Mike Reed that means he didn't clean up the 140 lbs division.. Because Mike didn't clean it up himself but he represented well... Yuri should've stayed amateur a little longer... Yuri fought most of his bouts novice anyway & he didn't win all his bouts at novice.. When he did turn open he didn't make any noise or never made it out of town to any national tournaments.. He wasn't ready then & he's definitely not ready for the pros, he has good potential that just needed to be groomed, what was the rush?
ReplyDeleteI would like to know why they took that fight. You go to fight a guy in his home town and he was an national champ
ReplyDeletethats what he gets for not fighting in the open division in the golden gloves, I wish I was there to see him get paid back! Hes not an american anyway. Shit on him.
ReplyDeleteI heard that yuri got ko'd in the gym before this fight and his confidence was gone
ReplyDeletedamn, ko'd by who?
