Akce za miliony. Legenda dřela na návrat, spolu s tím žhavila telefon

52 výher a 5 porážek. A také celá řada titulů, což z Konečného dělá jednoho z nejlepší boxerů české historie. Legendární rohovník kariéru oficiálně ukončil před více než deseti lety, teď se ale znovu vrací. Soupeřem mu bude Tomáš Bezvoda (17 výher a 24 porážek).

„Já jsem to bral tak, že do zápasu na své vlastní akci půjdu proto, abych podpořil promo a zájem fanoušků,“ uvádí Konečný důvod, jenž ho přinutil se znovu postavit pod světla reflektorů. Původně se měl přitom postavit nejmenované celebritě, která se na poslední chvíli přestala ozývat.

Konečný to během přípravy neměl vůbec jednoduché. Jelikož na očekávané události v Praze působí i v roli pořadatele a promotéra, musel se podílet na zabezpečení turnaje a také obvolával boxery, aby dokázal složit atraktivní startovku. Když se například někdo zranil, musel navzdory své gradující přípravě okamžitě nažhavit telefon a bádat po vhodné náhradě.

„Všechno dělám já,“ usmívá se 46letý boxer. „Člověk musí prostě vypnout a hotovo. Dřív jsem si říkal, že být boxer je nejhorší, ale když člověk začne dělat promotéra a manažera, tak najednou zjistí, že ani z té druhé stránky to není žádná sranda,“ povídá z vlastních zkušeností.

Boxerské akce v ikonické Lucerně nejsou výjimkou. Také v tomto případě by mělo být vyprodáno. Přenos navíc živě poběží na stanici Oneplay Sport 2. „Člověk musí dodržovat různé postupy, platit rozhodčím a zvát oficiální lidi. Z tohoto důvodu to není úplně levné. S mojí firmou Tohle je box to dělám ještě s Patron Boxingem, rozpočty jdou samozřejmě do milionů,“ uvádí Konečný, někdejší mistr světa ve veltrové váze a v současné době také trenér.

„S většími akcemi a titulovými zápasy to tak je. Vždycky to jde do jednotek milionů. Záleží na startovní kartě, kde to děláte, na nájmu, co potřebujete za show, světla či zvuk. Pak se to blbě získává zpátky od sponzorů či ze vstupenek, když profesionální box není na vrcholu nějaké mediální pozornosti,“ drbe se na hlavě.

I tak se na místě, kde se normálně konají například maturitní plesy, předvede domácí boxerská špička. O titul křížové váhy si to rozdají Vasil Ducár s Viktorem Agateljanem, úřadovat bude také těžkotonážník Lukáš Fajk, jenž okusí dovednosti Keňana Morrise Alfaya. Nesmí se zapomenout ani na ženu mnoha tváří Fabianu Bytyqi.

Rukavice opráší i zmíněný Konečný, pro nějž se bude jednat již o 58. profesionální duel. „Karta je opravdu povedená, zápasy jsou suprové. Měly tu být ještě dva tři jiné, ale bohužel neklaply,“ uvádí vyhlášený český boxer a zmiňuje absenci neporaženého Ukrajince Daniela Lapina, s nímž měl přiletět i světový boxerský šampion Oleksandr Usyk.

A pokud se vše povede na jedničku, jsou ve hře i další galavečery. „Všechno bude záležet na tom, jak to v sobotu dopadne. Může se stát, že to v uvozovkách skončí špatně a já nebudu mít náladu na další Lucerny. (smích) Ale doufám, že to dopadne dobře. Je jasné, že bude vyprodáno, což mě těší. Snad se povedou jednotlivé zápasy a diváci budou spokojení, že tam mohli být. Mám v plánu to dělat minimálně jednou do roka, ale všechno závisí na této akci.“

Análise: Perda da liderança do Brasileirão após derrota e queda de rendimento ligam sinal de alerta no Flamengo

A derrota do Flamengo ontem, por 1 a 0, para o Bahia, na Fonte Nova, ligou o sinal de atenção no clube por diversas razões. A principal delas é que, junto da virada por 3 a 2 conquistada pelo Palmeiras em clássico contra o São Paulo, o resultado fez com que o rubro-negro caísse para a segunda colocação do Campeonato Brasileiro, com os mesmos 55 pontos do alviverde, mas com uma vitória a menos e um jogo a mais. Além disso, a derrota representou a quarta partida das últimas seis em que o Flamengo não venceu no Brasileirão — e a segunda consecutiva que não marcou um gol sequer. O retrospecto indica uma queda no rendimento do time de Filipe Luís em meio a uma fase decisiva da temporada. Os três próximos jogos do rubro-negro após a pausa para a […]

How McLaren climbed out of the doldrums to become serial champions

"I walked in not understanding how bad it was..."Those are the words of McLaren chief executive Zak Brown reflecting on his first weeks in the team at the end of 2016, following two painful seasons during which finishing races wasn't a guarantee, let alone scoring points. Under Brown's leadership, with some significant help from team principal Andrea Stella, McLaren have transformed into a dominant force at the close of the current ground-effect regulations.On Sunday, the team wrapped up the Constructors' Championship with a record-equalling six rounds to go to match Red Bull's 2023 feat of the earliest the teams' title has ever been won.Stella told Sky Sports F1: "It's an incredible feeling, a feeling I want to share with the entire team. Congratulations to everyone at the factory, all our technical partners, everyone that supported us on this journey. "Already […]
