He was also in Don Coscarelli’s BUBBA HO-TEP with Bruce Campbell and his upcoming film JOHN DIES AT THE END.

Chuck was on E Channel’s hit reality show THE GIRLS NEXT DOOR Season 5 with Hugh Hefner, Holly Madison, Bridget Marquardt and Kendra Wilkinson. After 20 years in Hollywood, Mr. Williams continues to create. Whether it’s producing, directing or acting, Chuck has no intention of slowing down.

Jason “Big Six” Estrada Is Ready To Rumble on The American Perspective

Posted on 28 January 2011 by Judyth Piazza

Live From Vero Beach, Florida: Judyth Piazza chats with Jason “Big Six” Estrada (click here to listen to audio interview)

2004 United States Olympian Jason “Big Six” Estrada, one of the most decorated amateur boxers in U.S. history, rated among the world`s best super heavyweights for several years, has yet to reach his potential as a professional.

Jason`s most impressive performance as a pro arguably was six fights ago, when “Big Six” won a one-sided 10-round decision from former NABO/NABA/WBC Continental Americas heavyweight champion Lance “Mount” Whitaker (32-5-1, 27 KOs) in their April 4, 2008 ESPN2 FNF show headliner.

Providence native Estrada has fought anybody put in the ring with him, never turning down a fight, and none of his opponents has had a losing record (311-101-15 combined record of his opponents) when they fought “Big Six.”

His three losses were all on the road in the backyards of former world champion Tomasz Adamek, 2004 Olympic gold medalist Alexander Povetkin and Travis Walker. Estrada has never been floored, never mind stopped, in his pro career.

His much-anticipated pro debut December 10, 2004 ended in a unanimous four-round decision in his favor against Joseph Kenneth at Foxwoods Resort Casino.

Four months later, Jason put Jerry Simpson to sleep at 2:35 of the opening round, throwing a devastating knockout punch that resulted in Simpson being taken out of the ring on a stretcher and evaluated at a nearby hospital (he was okay).

He followed June 17 with a unanimous four-round decision against Demetrice King (7-6), in which, King`s corner tried to stop the fight by throwing in the towel. Only the referee can stop a fight in Rhode Island, however, and Demetrice managed to last the remainder of the fight.

Jason floored Earl Ladson (10-6) three times en route to a unanimous six-round decision (60-51, 60-51, 60-51) on August 26, 2005 and followed that (Nov. 23) with a six-round decision against highly respected veteran Najee Shaheed (21-10-2) in back-to-back Providence-based matches.

In February of 2006, Estrada stepped into the ring at the Dunkin` Donuts Center in Providence on “The Contender Special – East Coast Pride” card against his toughest and most experienced opponent, Yanqui Diaz (13-3), who had registered victories against previously unbeaten Juan Carlos Gomez (37-0) via a shocking first-round TKO and former world title challenger Vaughen Bean (44-4). The fight, however, was stopped in the first round due to a cut on Diaz` head from an unintentional head-butt and ruled a “no contest.”

In only his sixth pro fight, Jason went 10 rounds against veteran Robert Wiggins (20-6-1), pitching a shutout (100-90 three times) in complete domination of his cross-town Providence rival, who has beaten Derek Bryant, Courage Tshabala, Eric Kirkland and Cisse Salif, as well as been in with world heavyweight title challengers Monte Barrett and DeVarryl Williamson.

Jason extended his perfect winning rounds streak to 39 on Sept. 23, 2006, easily defeating Maurice Wheeler (10-7-1) by unanimous eight-round decision (80-72 three times) in Hartford.

On November 17, 2006, Estrada injured his arm and was unable to extend his vaunted jab, resulting in an eight-round majority loss (76-76, 75-77, 74-78) on ShoBox to Travis “Freight Train” Walker (21-0-1), who Jason has beaten three times without a loss in the amateurs.

Trimmed down to 239 pounds and in his best condition of his pro career, Jason returned to the ring March 6, 2007 at Mohegan Sun Arena, where he pitched a shutout, winning a six-round decision (60-54 three times) against upset specialist Zack Page (13-11-1), who had beaten former world champion Lou Del Valle, on ESPN2 Friday Night Fights.

On May 11, 2007, Estrada weighed in at a pro career low of 238 pounds, and he easily won a six round decision (60-54, 60-54, 59-56) versus former IBU heavyweight title-holder Robert Hawkins (21-7), who went on to upset Dominick Guinn.

Jason closed out 2007 with a devastating knockout of James Northey (11-1, 8 KOs), former NABC title-holder, in the fourth round of their fight in October. Estrada easily won a unanimous 10-round decision (99-91, 99-91, 98-92) against former world title challenger Charles Shufford in January, 2008 at Foxwoods.

After Jason`s win by 10-round decision in April, 2008 versus Whitaker, Estrada registered a victory by seventh-round TKO against Moultrie Witherspoon (14-1) last May in Rhode Island and came back three months later to win an eight-round decision versus Texas State champion Domonic Jenkins (13-9) at Mohegan Sun.

Big Six” came within a single point on one judge`s scorecard of pitching a complete shutout November 29, 2008, winning an eight-round decision (80-72, 80-72, 79-73) against Philadelphia veteran Derek Bryant (20-4-1) at Twin River.

This past April, Estrada accepted the challenge to fight No. 1 IBF contender Povetkin (16-0), who won the gold medal in the super heavyweight division at the 2004 Olympics, in Povetkin`s German home base. Estrada and Povetkin were supposed to have fought two times in the amateurs, but they never did as Estrada won gold at the 2003 Pan-Am Games and Povetkin took top honors in the 2003 World Championships. Estrada went the full 10-round distance against Povetkin, who won a unanimous decision that was much closer than the final scoring (99-94, 98-92, 97-93).

Estrada bounced right back September 2 in Syracuse (NY), stopping veteran Zuri Lawrence (24-14-4) in the seventh round.

In his last fight (Feb. 6, 2010), Jason went into the lion`s den – Prudential Center in Newark before 10,000 Polish fans – to take on Adamek for the IBF International heavyweight title. Estrada extended Adamek the full 12 rounds and lost a 12-round decision that was much closer than the final scores indicated (115-113, 116-112, 118-110).

The 29-year-old Estrada was one of the most highly decorated American amateur boxers ever, compiling an amazing 261-14 record in U.S. competition, as well as the first boxer to win both the U.S. Nationals and U.S. Challenge three years (2001-2003) in a row. The highlight of his amateur career was representing the United States in the 2004 Olympics, although physical problems hampered his training and performances.

During his extraordinary amateur career, Estrada defeated some of today`s leading professionals, including former world title challenger DaVarryl “The Touch of Sleep” Williamson (26-6, 22 KOs), unbeaten Malik Scott (32-0, 11 KOs), Donnell “The Real Touch of Sleep” Holmes (32-1-2, 28 KOs), Malcolm “The Showstopper” Tann (23-4, 12 KOs), and Felix “Bad News” Cora, Jr. (22-3-2, 10 KOs).

Jason Estrada, now promoted by Boxing 360, is managed and trained by his father, Dr. Roland Estrada.

Matt “Sharp Shooter” Remillard Hits the Mark on The American Perspective

Posted on 26 January 2011 by Judyth Piazza

Judyth Piazza chats with ‘Matt Sharp Shooter’ Remillard America`s Leading American Featherweight on The American Perspective (Click here to listen to interview)

America`s leading American featherweight, unbeaten NABF and NABO champion Matt “Sharp Shooter” Remillard, has targeted a 2011 world title fight.

The 24-year-old Remillard (23-0, 14 KOs), currently a promotional free agent, won all three of his 2010 fights by knockout. He has climbed the ratings systems to No. 3 in the WBO, No. 6 in the WBC, and No. 7 in the WBA.

“Ratings do mean something because I`m eligible in three major boxing organizations to fight for the world time,” Remillard said. At No. 3 in the WBO, I`m so close that I need to stay ready in case I get a call. If either one of the two fighters rated higher than me (No. 1 Daniel Ponce De Leon and No. 2 Chonlatarn Piriapinyp) fight for another title, lose, or get injured, I move up and then I`m even closer to a mandatory shot.

“I may be the only person getting in the ring to fight, but it takes a successful team to win a world title, and everybody has to be focused on the same thing (prepared for a world title shot). My manager, Bret Hallenbeck, has done an outstanding job and I don`t think he`s received the credit he deserves. I`m very happy with my team and everything going on in my career. I will have a new promoter in 2011 that will help me get a world title shot.”

Due to promotional problems, Remillard only fought three times in 2010, stopping Rafeal Lora for the NABF title and Carlos Rivera in a NABF title defense and for the vacant NABO belt. In his last fight November 20, Matt overcame two cuts resulting from forearms to easily win an 8-round decision (80-72, 80-72, 79-73) against Oscar Cuero (13-3).

“This has been a tough year because of my promotional problems,” Matt remarked. I would have liked to have fought more often; I`m a fighter and I love to train. I don`t have control over that, though. All I can do is get better each fight. I look at it as I`m another year closer to my ultimate goal “fighting for and winning the world title. It`s not going to be easy because my division is hot.”

Judyth Piazza and John Masters Share the Secrets of Blackbeard’s Treasure?

Posted on 23 January 2011 by Judyth Piazza

Judyth Piazza chats with John Masters About The Discovery of Queen Anne’s Revenge (Click here to listen to the interview)

John Masters, Director of Operations for Intersal, Inc. and son of its late founder Philip Masters, spent years helping his father research and hunt for shipwrecks at Beaufort Inlet, NC, which resulted in the 1996 discovery of Queen Anne`s Revenge (QAR), 1718 Flagship of Blackbeard the Pirate.

Intersal donated QAR salvage rights to the state of North Carolina in 1998, and for the last dozen years has helped the NC Underwater Archeology Branch recover the wreck. His presentation will focus on the current excavation and Intersal`s hunt for QAR, the lives of real pirates in the 18th Century, and the visits of Blackbeard and other pirates to the Treasure Coast.

QAR is located near Beaufort Inlet, NC by Intersal`s former director of operations Mike Daniel, who used historical research provided by Intersal`s late president Phil Masters. Daniel now heads up Maritime Research Institute, the non-profit corporation formed to work on the project in cooperation with State archaeologists and historians of the North Carolina Department of Cultural Resource, Division of Archives and History. After recovery and storage is accomplished, artifacts will undergo a lengthy process of cleaning, stabilization, and analysis that will culminate in their public display and interpretation. The North Carolina Maritime Museum is designated as the primary exhibition facility for the QAR collection.

Educated in History (and Music) at the University of Florida, Mr. Masters has been working closely with State of NC officials and archaeologists on the recovery of QAR for almost 15 years. Mr. Masters became Intersal Director of Operations in 1999, and is Project Manager of Intersal`s search for El Salvador, a 1750 Spanish merchant vessel lost near Beaufort Inlet. He presently resides in Gainesville, Florida.

Evander Holyfield and challenger Sherman Williams Fight Abruptly Ended After 3 Rounds

Posted on 23 January 2011 by VBnewswire

Last night`s title fight between World Boxing Federation Heavyweight Champion Evander “The Real Deal” Holyfield and challenger Sherman “Tank” Williams abruptly ended after three rounds due to a cut over Holyfield`s left eye that happened in the second round suffered in the second round. Holyfield was unable to continue after three and the fight was declared a no contest because the cut was caused by an accidental head butt and the fight didn`t go four rounds.

“I`m cut,” Holyfield said after the fight. “He head-butted me. He came down on me with his head. I don`t know about my next fight (March 5 vs. Brian Nielson in Denmark). I`m cut, I`m cut. I`ll give Sherman a rematch.”

“I`m back,” said Williams who staggered Holyfield at the end of the third round with an overhand right. “This fight was circus: on again, off again. But I stayed focused. I hurt him with an overhand punch. Let`s bring this fight to Atlantis – Holyfield-Williams II. I`ll take his place in Denmark and fight Nielson.”

Holyfield-Williams headlined the “Redemption In America” pay-per-view card, viewed by boxing fans in 17 different countries worldwide, live in front of a black-tie crowd from America`s resort – The Greenbrier`s Colonial Hall – in White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia.

“Redemption In America: The Journey Begins Now” pay-per-view event, presented by ARK Promotions in association with The Greenbrier, was distributed in North America by Integrated Sports Media.

“Redemption” fused world-class boxing and entertainment; showcasing a production that included high-energy music presented by Broadway performers, along with dancers and aerial artists. World-renowned saxophone player Clarence Clemons also headlined a live band between fights throughout the night.

In the co-feature, WBC #16 heavyweight Kevin “Kingpin” Johnson (24-1-1, 10 KOs) dropped a much taller Julius “Towering Inferno” Long (15-15, 13 KOs) twice in the final round en route to a convincing win by 8-round unanimous decision. Johnson, a former world title challenger, won seven rounds on all three judges` scorecards.

Former world heavyweight title challenger Monte Barrett (34-9-1) and veteran Charles “Showboat” Davis fought to an 8-round majority draw.

In the PPV opening bout, unbeaten Detroit middleweight Willie Fortune (10-0, 5 KOs) won an 8-round split decision against Lithuania-native Donatas Bondoravas (10-2-1, 3 KOs) in a spirited bout.

In one of three off-PPV fights, Detroit middleweight Domonique Dolton (10-0, 6 KOs) kept his undefeated record intact, pitching a complete shutout (80-72 three times) versus veteran Marcos “The Terminator” Primera for an 8-round unanimous decision.

NABA Heavyweight Champion Cedric “The Bos” Boswell (33-1, 26 KOs) successfully defended his title, knocking out Dominique “Diamond” Alexander (19-10, 9 KOs) in the second round via the three-knockdown rule.

Cleveland junior welterweight Miguel “Silky Smooth” Gonzalez (13-2, 12 KOs), 2008 U.S. National AAU champion, dropped Ramon Che” Guevara three times in the sixth round for an automatic knockout victory.

Special guests at ringside included former world heavyweight champions Lennox Lewis and Larry Holmes, as well as 4-time world heavyweight title challenger Jameel McCline.

Holyfield-Williams Post Fight Quotes

WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, West Virginia (January 22, 2011)

Evander Holyfield: “I`m very disappointed. He fought the way he should have. He understood he would have his head low when he threw the overhand right. If I didn`t move back, we`d clash heads. It was to his advantage to get lower because he`s short. Being that short he had to fight that fight. He didn`t have to, he chose to.”

“Stuff like this happens and I`ll shake it off. Hopefully, I`ll get this stitched up and it won`t be a problem. Life goes on, it`s part of boxing.”

Sherman Williams: “I`ve had my own personal setbacks. To get over what I did was a miracle. I trained hard for this fight. I was fighting a legend and I can`t take anything away from him. I feel like I should have won by TKO. I cut him with an overhand right, but I respect him.”

“I root for him. He`s almost 50 and still training and performing. I admire what he`s done but it`s time to let younger guys fight and older guys do television commentary. He`s not as good looking as I am. You`ve made sacrifices, won 4 world championships and fought in the Olympics. But this is a new time, a new era. Mr. Holyfield shouldn`t be taking punches from younger guys. That`s how I feel. It`s time for him to move on but, if he wants, we can do it again.”

“After the first round he was falling into my trap. When he felt I was in retreat…bang with the overhand right, and that`s when I saw blood.”
