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 (טשעק אויס 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. טאָם, 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:
הייַנט בייַ נאַכט (סעפּטעמבער 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” געשעעניש, WBC Youth World Lightweight Champion and top-ranked amateur, Devin “The Dream” Haney (16-0, 11 קאָס), will face Mexico’s Enrique Tinoco (16-4-3, 12 קאָס) in an eight-round showcase. The event is topped by Philadelphia heavyweight Joey “די טאַנק” דאַוועדזשקאָ (17-4-4, 10 קאָס) taking on Detroit’s Demetrius Banks (9-1, 4 קאָס) in an eight-round battle. Tickets are priced at Front row VIP: $150, וויפּ: $100, רינגסייד: $65 און אַלגעמיינע אַדמיססיאָן: $45 and can be purchased at 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 און, אין עלטער 18, is undefeated in 16 פייץ. 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, ענריקווע טינאָקאָ? 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?’ עס Feels גרויס. 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. הייַנט בייַ נאַכט, טירן עפענען בייַ 6PM און דער ערשטער באַוט איז ביי 7PM. The Sugarhouse casino is located at 1001 N Delaware Avenue אין פילאדעלפיע. |

שבת, אָקטאָבער 28 FROM CARDIFF, WALES
Joshua vs. Pulev Kicks Off First Of Consecutive Saturdays Featuring Heavyweight World Title Fights From SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING®
פאָטאָ קרעדיט: Mark Robinson/Matchroom Sport
NEW YORK – סעפּטעמבער 21, 2017 - שאָוטיים ספורט® will close out a banner year of world-class boxing with back-to-back Saturdays featuring heavyweight world championship fights live on SHOWTIME. The network announced today coverage of unified heavyweight world champion Anthony Joshua’s upcoming WBA and IBF world title defense against top-rated mandatory challenger Kubrat Pulev on שבת, אָקטאָבער 28 לעבן אויף שאָוטיים from Principality Stadium in Cardiff, וואַלעס.
די אָקטאָבער 28 SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast will be the first of two heavyweight world title fights airing live on SHOWTIME on consecutive Saturdays, with WBC World Champion Deontay Wilder set to defend his title against undefeated contender Luis Ortiz on שבת, נאָוועמבער 4. Both main event bouts will air live on SHOWTIME as the network concludes a robust 2017 boxing campaign that will have featured 22 world championship fights, 16 bouts matching fellow undefeated fighters, three world title unifications, three world title rematches and the emergence of three bright young stars (ערראָל ספּענסע קינג, Gervonta Davis and David Benavidez) as they earned their first world titles.
With the addition of Joshua vs. פולעוו, four of the consensus top-five heavyweights in the world will compete on SHOWTIME in consecutive weeks. Joshua vs. Pulev and Wilder vs. Ortiz will be the ninth and 10טה heavyweight world championship bouts to air live on SHOWTIME in the last two years.
“There’s so much to be excited about in the sport of boxing, and it all comes to a fever pitch on consecutive Saturdays this fall on SHOWTIME,"האט געזאגט סטעפאנוסן עספּינאָזאַ, Executive Vice President and General Manager of SHOWTIME Sports. “This has been a great year for boxing. More specifically, it has been a great year for SHOWTIME boxing. There’s no better way to end it than with two major heavyweight world championship events. We are proud to be in business with the two biggest punchers in the sport, Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder, and the rest of the talented and hungry heavyweight challengers of today.”
יהושע, the undefeated British superstar (19-0, 19 קאָס), 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. איצט, Joshua returns to take on the top-ranked IBF challenger in Pulev (25-1, 13 קאָס) בייַ די 70,000 seat national stadium in Wales.
יהושע, 27, has remarkably knocked out all of his opponents since turning pro shortly after winning gold in the 2012 אָלימפּיקס. The Watford, England native won his first title with a second-round KO of defending IBF Heavyweight Champion Charles Martin in April 2016, earning a heavyweight belt in the fewest number of fights in more than 20 יאָרן. He has since successfully defended the title three times – against Dominic Breazeale in June of 2016, Eric Molina in December and Klitschko in April.
פולעוו, פון Sofia, בולגאַריאַ, will be making his second attempt at winning the IBF world championship, having lost to Klitschko in his first try in November 2014. נאָך וואָס, his lone loss, Pulev quickly rebounded and became a two-time European champion with a win over Dereck Chisora. He also holds wins over two former world title foes of Klitschko in Samuel Peter and Kevin Johnson.
Joshua vs. Pulev is promoted by Matchroom Sport. Fewer than 200 tickets remain on sale viawww.StubHub.co.uk priced at £300.
