WBC heavyweight champion Bermane 'B. Ware' Stiverne Honored by Nevada Boxing HOF

PRESS RELEASE For Immediate Release     NBHOF host Rosie Perez & Bermane Stiverne LAS VEGAS (August 14, 2014) - World Boxing Council (WBC) heavyweight champion Bermane "B. Ware" Stiverne(24-1, 21 KOs) was honored this past weekend by the Nevada Boxing Hall of Fame (NBHOF) at its annual awards dinner in Las Vegas. Stiverne was presented a Special Achievement Award by the NSBHOF for becoming the first Haitian-born World Heavyweight Champion. "It felt great to represent Haiti," Stiverne said, "but what really felt amazing was to receive it amongst legends like Mike Tyson, Evander Holyfield, Roberto Duran and Floyd Mayweather." Stiverne, who knocked out Chris Arreola(35-4) this past May to claim the coveted title belt vacated by retired Vitali Klitschko, is tentatively scheduled to defend his title for the first time later this year against mandatory challenger Deontay "The Bronze Bomber" Wilder (31-0, 31 KOs). During the NBHOF dinner, Stiverne spent most of the time with his head trainer, Don House, along with his long-time friend and former world champion, Kevin Kelley. However, Bermane was introduced to a few people he's always wanted to meet. "I had the honor to meet Evander Holyfield, the talented actress and host of the night, Rosie Perez, and Roberto Duran," Stiverne noted. "It's really funny how I used to watch these icons when I was a young kid." "I'm very happy Bermane is getting the recognition he deserves," Stiverne's manager Camille Estephan (Eye of the Tiger Management) added. "We've all worked hard to get him to this point but this isn't our destination point. He's gong a lot further. He has the WBC belt, the same one held by Muhammad Ali, George Foreman and so many other great heavyweights. Someday, we want Bermane talked about in the same way. We can't wait for his next fight so he can make a major statement."    For further information visit www.eottm.com, follow on Twitter @eotmvd and @BStiverne, or Instagram @BermaneStiverne.

FLOYD MAYWEATHER HEADS NEVADA FIGHTER HONOREES AT NEVADA BOXING HALL OF FAME INDUCTION CEREMONY

     

MAGDALENO, MCCARTER, GAYTAN

ALSO GET RECOGNITION AT SOLD-OUT CEREMONY 

            LAS VEGAS, NEV. (August 10, 2013) -- Undefeated welterweight champion Floyd Mayweather heads a list of four resident boxers who will be honored with "Nevada Fighter of the Year Awards" tonight at the Inaugural Nevada Boxing Hall of Fame Dinner in Las Vegas. 

            Mayweather Jr., who is 44 and 0 in his long career, receives the Nevada Male Fighter of the Year honor for his virtuoso performance May 4 against Robert Guerrero at MGM Grand Garden Arena. Floyd entered the ring at the age of 36, having been out of action one day short of a year, against a young, hungry opponent in Guerrero. However, after a close battle in the first two rounds, Mayweather seized control and using his experience and guile, dominated the rest of the way.

            Three other Nevada-based boxers also will receive plaques honoring their achievements over the past year.  Layla McCarter is the NVBHOF Female Fighter of the Year. McCarter pulled off the difficult assignment of traveling to South Africa and defeating the previously unbeaten Noni Tenge by eight-round TKO to take the WBA Female Light Middleweight.  Jesse Magdaleno was named Nevada Prospect of the Year for his rapid development into a main event fighter. Magdaleno, a two-year pro, is now 15-0.  Josue Gaytan,  will be honored with the Nevada Amateur Fighter of the Year Award. Gaytan, a junior at the University of Nevada in Reno, won his second consecutive National Collegiate Championship in the 185-pound division.

            NVBHOF Founder and President Rich Marotta said, "We are a Nevada-centric organization and we want to recognize not only the past greats, the inductees, but those from Nevada who are making it happen in our state right now."

           Tonight's first-ever Nevada Boxing Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony and Dinner takes place at the Monte Carlo Las Vegas Resort and Casino is a complete sellout.
