THOMAS DULORME CAPTURES NABF TITLE WITH UNANIMOUS DECISION AGAINST KARIM MAYFIELD




NEW JERSEY (March 29, 2014) - Tonight in Atlantic City NJ, Gary Shaw Productions Jr. Welterweight sensation, Thomas Dulorme (21-1, 14 KOs, captured vacant the NABF title with a 10-round unanimous decision over previously unbeaten contender Karim Mayfield (18-1-1, 10 KOs). Scorecards read 98-92, 97-94 and 96-93 all in favor for Dulorme. 

From the opening round, Dulorme controlled the action with his length and kept his distance as Mayfield tried his best to take the fight inside. As the fight went into the later rounds, Dulorme continued to mount a convincing lead as he boxed his way to victory. 

 Dulorme proved he has the talent to compete at the top level in the Jr. welterweight division and will now look to fight for a world title by the end of the year. He feels he can beat any champion in the division. 

 "Tonight I wanted to show the world that I'm a force in the Jr. Welterweight division," said Dulorme. "Mayfield was an undefeated fighter who punches with a lot of power but he never hurt me. Robert Garcia and Alex Ariza are taking me to another level and I believe I'm the best Jr. Welterweight in the world." 

"My promoter Gary Shaw said he wants to see me in a big fight with a world champion in the near future. I'm ready to fight the best. Shaw and I are ready to take on all comers. I dedicate this fight to my people back home in Puerto Rico." Dulorme concluded. 

 "Dulorme showed great poise tonight against a power puncher who likes to brawl," said Gary Shaw. "He's now in position to challenge any of the champions at 140lbs and I'll talk with his team to see what we can put together. This is a great win for Dulorme and I'm proud of his accomplishments thus far. Garcia and Ariza are doing a great job with him and happy they've united. He's on his way to big time fights."

Dulorme on working with promoter Gary Shaw and fighting on HBO...
"Gary Shaw is a fantastic promoter and I'm thrilled to be fighting back on HBO. I told Shaw that I was hungry to get back into world title contention and that is exactly what I'm doing going up against a tough fighter like Mayfield. Gary Shaw has always been straight forward with me when it comes to my career and I appreciate him standing behind me. I want to thank Shaw and everyone at HBO for giving me another opportunity to fight on the big stage. I promise to put on a great show."

Dulorme comments on his recent training camp with Robert Garcia....
"I've been here training with Robert Garcia in Oxnard, Californian for the last eight weeks.  He's a tremendous coach and I'm learning a lot about myself and what I need to improve on.  There is always room for growth and Garcia is bringing the best out of me.  I've been getting great sparring and I'll be 100% ready for Mayfield's awkward style."

Dulorme discusses strength and conditioning methods with Alex Ariza...
"Alex Ariza is great at what he does and I'm happy that he is helping me with my strength and conditioning. We are doing a lot of explosive drills that are helping me with my overall speed and stamina. I feel very strong at 140lbs and with the type of training Ariza has me doing, I feel more confident in my ability to punch with power at this weight."

Dulorme on sparring with top level opposition...
"I don't want to give up the names of my sparring partners but everyone that Garcia has me sparring have excellent professional records and all of them are giving me great work.  There are a couple of Russian fighters along with a few Olympians in camp with me.  During this camp there is no room to make mistakes or else you will pay for them.  These are the best sparring partners I've had for any camp in my pro career."

Dulorme on his fight against undefeated contender Karim Mayfield...
"Mayfield is a great fighter but he's never faced the type of punches that I'll be throwing at him.  I posses speed and power unlike any of Mayfield's past opponents.  His awkward style will not be a problem.  He also has physical disadvantages that I will exploit.  I know he thinks he's unbeatable but I will prove him wrong."

Rosinsky Returns December 19!


 
Queens, NY (November 21, 2012) – Super middleweight contender Will “Power” Rosinsky of Queens, NY makes his return to the ring Wednesday, December 19 when he faces battle tested contender Otis “Triple OG” Griffin in an eight round featured bout at the Roseland Ballroom in New York City.
 
The winner of Oscar De La Hoya’s “Next Great Champion” TV series, Griffin’s fought some of the top fighters in and around the light heavyweight division including Marcus Oliveira, Yusaf Mack, Danny Green, Jesse Brinkley, Shawn Hawk, Cedric Agnew and Jeff Lacy. The Sacramento, CA native, who played pro football prior to boxing, knocked out former world champion Byron Mitchell in 2010 and has wins over 4 undefeated opponents.
 
“I’m thrilled about this because his team made numerous inquiries about fighting me,” stated Rosinsky, who works full-time as an EMT for the FDNY. “He’s a very experienced fighter who lost some controversial decisions against world class opponents. Against me, there will be no controversy because the judges won’t be needed!”
 
Rosinsky, who is amongst the most popular fighters in the New York area, has an excellent 16-2 professional ledger with 9 wins by way of knockout. The 2005 United States Amateur titlist holds impressive wins over Aaron Pryor Jr., Zane Marks and Yasin Rashid. In October 2011, Rosinsky fought on a national stage for the first time, dropping a controversial decision to top-notch Edwin Rodriguez on Showtime.
 
In his most recent bout, Rosinsky lost a gutsy decision to former undisputed middleweight champion Kelly Pavlik on HBO. Against Pavlik, the popular New Yorker recovered from a flash knockdown to open a cut below Pavlik’s left eye, but ultimately dropped a competitive ten round decision.
 
“I’m looking forward to returning to the Big Apple,” said Rosinsky, who fought 15 of his 18 bouts in New York City. “I’ve had many good memories here and I’m putting the work in during my training to make sure that the fans will enjoy a great fight on the 19th.”
