As
is our tradition here, if we covered a fight live and tweeted details from
ringside we like to post a recap later for any of you anti-social media
types. Here is a chronological recounting of our live-tweets from
ringside, made slightly more grammatical and a little bit less hashtaggie.

Ringside here @FoxwoodsCT for
#BroadwayBoxing, bout 2 underway. Good action 1st round from Nicklaus Flaz, 156lbs,
vs. Elie Augustama, 162lbs
blood coming from the right
eyebrow of Elie Augustama. Niklaus Flaz coasted a bit in the final minute of
the third but he looks to be ahead
Augustama is much busier but Flaz
more accurate. good action in the third. Augustama's corner shouts for body
shots & he delivers big
also, Hurshidbeck Normatov scored a 1st rd TKO over Bruce Lutchmedial |
Flaz seems to be the harder
puncher but Augustama is really pressing the fight, busier, more aggressive. Flaz
countering well. Not busy enuf
This is gonna be a tough one to
score because the judges will have to chose from volume punching & pressure
vs. accuracy & hard counters
Augustama's punches just haven't
seemed to do the damage that Flaz' shots have done and in the end #Boxing is
first & foremost about hurting
Augustama won that last rd. But
this is going to B interesting. I've been tweeting & posting & writing
so I didn't score it. Flaz likely won
Ok, official scorecards are 60-54
x 2 and 59-55 all in favor of Niklaus Flaz who improves to 5-0 (4). They didn't
think it was close at all
Next up is rugged journeyman
Evincci Dixon of PA who goes up against Khiry Todd of Lynn ,
MA . 4 rounds, welterweights #BroadwayBoxing
mostly uneventful 1st, Todd
firing shots at Dixon 's head while
the Pennsylvanian holds his gloves high. Todd pressing action & landing
more
Todd seems able to hook his shots
right around the hands-held-high, gloves-up defense of Evincii Dixon. Todd
going to body & head, combos
Not only is Todd landing when he
wants he's out maneuvering the come-forward Dixon ,
giving him angles, walking away and leaping back in
Khiry Todd shoots a jab through the guard of Evincii Dixon |
Todd winning all these rds but he
hasn't been able 2 hurt or drop Dixon
& don't wait for it Dixon has
been stopped only 4 times in 20 losses
Khiry Todd picks up a six round
unanimous decsision over Evincii Dixon. scorecards were 60-54 and 59-55 x 2. #BroadwayBoxing
Up next, Steve Rolls, 162lbs,ofToronto, Canada, versus Andrik Saralegui 168lbs of San Diego, CA#BroadwayBoxing
Steve Rolls controlled much of
the 1st, shooting a big right to the guts of Saralegui with some success
that long lunging right to the
body is paying off for Steve Rolls. Saralegui is wilting quite a bit here in
round 2
Ref. Joey Lupino just asked a
very red-faced Saralegui if he was ok.
Just seconds later Rolls drives
Saralegui into a corner behind a barrage of head shots & finishes with a
nasty left hook to the belly. BOOM!
This looked bound 2 end w/a body
shot from round 1 and it did. 2:17
of round 3 is the official time of the stoppage. Rolls now 17-0 (10)
up now, Nicky DeQuattro 141lbs of
Johnston , RI ,
versus Andre Bellacarris 146lbs of Bennington ,
VT. Yes, VERMONT !!
These guys are so green we could
seriously use a lawnmower... huh? not
even sure what that means. #BroadwayBoxing
lots of wide swinging and
stalking here between these 2 New Englanders
DeQuattro has landed harder and a
few more often and he's more elusive. But these two are raw.
very good third round for
DeQuattro. He made Bellacarris miss and made him pay for it in the final
seconds of the rd #BroadwayBoxing
Bellacarris seems exhausted, has
lost his mouthpiece twice here in the final round
Bellacarris scores with a wild
right. He loses the mouthpiece again. Callas is letting it go. DeQuattro
landing left hooks on charging foe
well, that was a wild 1 this
crowd enjoyed. Nick DeQuattro should pick up his second win in as many fights. Bellacarris
backs into the pros
Nick DeQuattro wins a unanimous
decision, scorecards are 40-36 x 2 & 39-37 all in favor of the Rhode
Islander. Bellacarris now 0-1 as a pro
#boxing now, Mykquan Williams 143lbsof East Hartford, CT versus Somner Martin 144lbs of Virginia #BroadwayBoxing
Mykquan Williams just overwhelmed
Somner Martin, blasting him with speedy shots to the head & body. A hard
left hook prompted the stoppage
the official time of the stoppage
is 2:19 of round number 1. Marvelous
Mykquan Williams improves to 9-0 (5), now 4-0 (2) in 2017
up now, Shelly Vincent, 129lbs,of Providence, RI, versus Calixta Silgado, 130lbs, of Tolu, Colombia #BroadwayBoxing
@shelitosway going right for the
belly of Silgado in round number one.
Silgado has been away from the
ring since December of twenty-sixteen but she's not holding back here in rd 2
Silgado hit Vincent after the
bell to end the second and she apologized
@shelitosway throwing punches in
bunches & crowding Silgado in rd 3. Silgado's best shot seems to be the
uppercut. good shot on come-fwd SV
Vincent doing the bulk of the
landing through 4 rounds. Silgado holding to break up Vincent's attacking,
pressing style #BroadwayBoxing
Shelly Vincent's hand is raised in victory by Ref Johnny Callas |
Silgado is losing big here but
she's got good balance and she's not easy to hit cleanly. Lots of moving from
her. #BroadwayBoxing
Silgado is timing @shelitosway's
charges better in the sixth. Catching her on the way in with uppercuts &
left hooks. She may have won rd 6
Silgado seems to have found the
range. Interesting fight. Boxer versus Puncher.
coming up on the 8th and final
round. @shelitosway in control but Sigado has looked better in last couple
rounds. #BroadwayBoxing
Silgado sweeps at @shelitosway
with a quick left hook as Vincent comes forward, she's had some success with it.
@shelitosway lands a hard left
hook of her own and then bangs at Silgado's body in the neutral corner.
Crowd really enjoying that final
frame. Silgado and @shelitosway embrace at the bell. Fun fight. Vincent should
pick up a UD.
Here's the scorecards... @shelitosway
wins a unanimous decision 79-73 x 2, 77-75 all in her favor. She improves to 21-1
(1), now 3-0 in 2017
Main Event time! Matt Remillard 129lbs of Hartford, CT versus
Yardley Armenta Cruz 130lbs of Sacramento, CA 10 rds, 135lbs #BroadwayBoxing
Remillard in charge in round 1. Yardley
Cruz seems intimidated, hesitating too much.
Cruz shoots a right and a left at
Remillard's belly, the left lands. Remillard fighting at a very sharp angle
behind that left shoulder
Matt Remillard after his 3rd straight win this year |
Remillard putting serious
pressure on Cruz. Speedy jabs are reddening the brow of Cruz. This is not going
the distance I bet.
Cruz is being completely
outclassed. Ringside physician Michael Schwartz is up in the corner of Cruz
checking on him. #BroadwayBoxing
third time through the ropes this
year for Remillard and he looks pretty damn terrific here. 3rd times a charm. Cruz
has no answers.
If this was a chess game it would
be damn close to checkmate. Remillard beating him to the punch again and again.
Bang bang bang and Referee Joey
Lupino has seen enough. It's a stand-up TKO win for Remillard.
That's all from here, fight-fans!
Thanks for all the follows & retweets! Until next time, EXCELSIOR!! #BroadwayBoxing
