This episode of the FNU Combat Sports Show features special guest Eddie Barraco. Eddie was a fighter who last connected with us when MySpace was still cool (проверити Eddie’s Facebook page Here), and it’s been too long. We cover a wide range of issues and catch up on what he’s been up to as a first class MMA trainer in Las Vegas. Том, Tony and Rich also discuss the abhorrent judging of Adelaide Byrd, who scored the Canelo Alvarez vs. Gennady Golovkin fight 118-110 in favor of Canelo, who by most accounts lost a close fight at best. Additionally we touch on Ana Julaton’s transition from boxing to MMA, Conor McGregor’s upcoming appearance before congress, and former heavyweight champion boxer Michael Moorer’s new job punching out looters in Florida.
Part One and Show Close:
Eddie’s Interview:
Вечерас (Септембар 22), at the SugarHouse Casino in Philadelphia, a young prospect being called “the future of boxing” by some important people will have the toughest fight of his career.
In one of the main supporting bouts of Hard Hitting Promotions’ (in association with Greg Cohen Promotions & Devin Haney Promotions) “Fight Night at The Sugarhouse” догађај, WBC Youth World Lightweight Champion and top-ranked amateur, Devin “The Dream” Haney (16-0, 11 КОс), will face Mexico’s Enrique Tinoco (16-4-3, 12 КОс) in an eight-round showcase. The event is topped by Philadelphia heavyweight Joey “Танк” Давејко (17-4-4, 10 КОс) taking on Detroit’s Demetrius Banks (9-1, 4 КОс) in an eight-round battle. Tickets are priced at Front row VIP: $150, ВИП: $100, Рингсиде: $65 и генерални Улаз: $45 и могу се купити на www.hardhittingpromotions.com. So advanced in skills at a young age was Haney, a Mayweather family associate, that he turned pro in Mexico at 16 и, у доби 18, is undefeated in 16 туче. He is trained by well-respected former world champion Mike McCallum. Haney also has the distinction of being the youngest promoter in boxing, as he also operates Devin Haney Promotions. This is the toughest fight of your career; did you do anything differently in training? I did the same stuff I always do. This is what I’ve prepared for my whole life, so I’m always ready.” Tell me about working with an all-time great like Mike McCallum as your trainer. I’ve been working with Mike for about three fights and it’s going great. I’ve learned a lot of things from him. What do you think of your opponent, Енрике Тиноцо? I saw him fight a while back. Watched him live. He looks rugged and put some pressure on his opponent. He comes to fight, but I definitely know what to do with him. I had a lot of experience in the amateurs and have sparred a lot of great pros. I’m ready for whatever he has to bring to the able. What’s it feel like when someone like Floyd Mayweather calls you the ‘future of the sport?’ Осећај је сјајан. I worked hard for people to acknowledge me in the sport and compare me to the top fighters in boxing right now. Floyd is like a mentor to me. Both Floyds are. I just want to keep training hard an showing everybody that I really am the future of boxing. I don’t feel any pressure to perform perfectly every time though. I don’t believe in pressure. That’s all in the head. I’m just going to go in there and showcase my skills. Вечерас, Врата се отварају у 6АМ и прва борба је на 7АМ. The Sugarhouse casino is located at 1001 N Delaware Avenue у Филаделфији. |

Џошуа, the undefeated British superstar (19-0, 19 КОс), exploded onto the world stage in April when he defeated heavyweight legend Wladimir Klitschko via a spectacular come-from-behind knockout. In the year’s leading Fight of the Year candidate, a bout that aired live on SHOWTIME, Joshua picked up the vacant WBA heavyweight title to go along with his IBF belt. Сада, Joshua returns to take on the top-ranked IBF challenger in Pulev (25-1, 13 КОс) у 70,000 seat national stadium in Wales.
