Ніжэй тое, што байцы павінны былі сказаць,:

 

Andre “S.O.G.” Ward – Unified Light Heavyweight World Champion

“I am looking forward to making a statement in this fight and answering any questions that may be out there and removing any doubt that may be out there, so I’m excited. You got to look at the other side of the coin, there’s a lot of people that thought I won the fight and he got what he asked for. Now after this, we don’t want to hear any excuses. We don’t want to hear about anything. We’re going to shut the door on this and, like I said, take all doubt and all questions off the table.

 

“In this sport, I have very little room for error. I always have the pressure on my side – no matter if I’m the challenger or the champion. But that’s OK because me and my team, we’ve learned how to deal with the pressure. We know how to deal with it. I come here looking forward to bringing back everything that I brought, including those belts. Я ўсхваляваны. Не магу дачакацца, we’re a couple days away. All of this talking is getting ready to be over. We’re getting ready for my favorite part, which is the fight. Чэрвеня 17. It’s about business, so I did what I had to do the first time. I’m looking to turn it up this time.

 

“The pressure is always on, адзін. It comes with my territory and it’s been like this since I’ve been a baby – 16 гадоў, 17 гадоў. You get to a point where you don’t run from the pressure, you embrace it. That’s what all the greats do. All I got to do is be myself and that will be enough. Everything else will take care of itself. At the highest level, you’re going to face adversity. It’s not if, it’s when. But the question is how do you respond? We responded like we were supposed to. I’m just looking forward to giving the fans another great fight in a few days here at the Mandalay Bay Events Center on Чэрвеня 17.

 

“A lot of people talk about the jab and the right hand. But if you look at the second part of the fight, ён [Кавалёў] wasn’t landing right hands and jabs. He had a good moment and he’s a really great fighter – I’m not taking anything away from him. That’s why I want to face the best, каб быць лепшым. Some people thought I won, some people thought I lost. So let’s do it again and that’s the beauty of rematches in this sport. It’s nothing to get defensive about. You just lace it up, do it again and we’ll see what happens.

 

“I got out of that business a long time ago - trying to prove people wrong – because it’s not an even playing field. I’ve shut guys out – 120-108; 120-107 on the scorecard – and I’ve literally heard grumblings about something. If it’s not this, it’s that. You get to a place where you mature as a man, you mature as an athlete, and you make the decision that ‘I’m going to live my life in the middle.’ I appreciate the praises, but I can’t get too high with those. And the criticisms – I can’t get too low with those. People are entitled to their opinions. Let me just keep doing me and that’s really the best place to be as an athlete.

 

“Tactically, I obviously want to have a better start and I’m going to have a better start. That’s really what got me in my hole – the start. I’m sure he’s made some adjustments and he’s going to come harder, але я гатовы. I’ve done everything I’m supposed to do. When you prepare the way you’re supposed to – and all the boxes are checked – it’s time to go to work. And I’m going to go to work, having fun and enjoying what I do, and put on a show in the process on Чэрвеня 17."

 

Sergey “Krusher” Kovalev – Former Unified Light Heavyweight World Champion

 

“You know it’s good that he’s believing himself right now, that he’s got the key for me, but he didn’t get the key. He won two rounds against me as empty Kovalev, I remember I was like a heavy bag. Just like a fighter who came in the boxing gym like one month ago. And he’s like right now, ‘oh yeah I beat the Kovalev, but he won with empty Kovalev’.

“For this fight, I definitely had to get in shape, have different emotions and different motivations. I don’t just want to get my belts back and thank boxing fans for the support. I want to thank my haters – they motivate me to keep going. I want to get my belts and I’m here for this.

"Так, my fists will say it. I’ve already said enough. I want to say to Team Ward – they’ve said a lot of trash to my side, my team. He will pay for everything; Я абяцаю табе.

 

“I appreciate him giving me the opportunity to get my belts back and on Чэрвеня 17 it’s going to be a different fight.

“I was empty one month before the November fight. Ward fought an empty Kovalev. This time I will not be empty – Ward will be fighting Krusher. I had pushed myself so hard in the beginning of training camp that one month out I was empty. I felt so much presser for the fight – my first fight on HBO Pay-Per-View – that I just trained too hard.”

“Broner супраць. Garcia is one of the year’s biggest matchups in boxing and we anticipate an electric atmosphere at Barclays Center,” кажа Бретт Yormark, Генеральны дырэктар Brooklyn Sports & Забавы. “This will be our fourth major card in 2017 as BROOKLYN BOXING continues to deliver dramatic moments, канкурэнтныя баі, and many of the sport’s biggest names to fight fans.”
Broner and Garcia, two world-class fighters in their prime, meet at a critical time in their respective careers in one of the most intriguing matches in boxing. Both Broner and Garcia have had spectacular victories at Barclays Center in Brooklyn during their careers. Broner successfully defended his welterweight title against Paulie Malignaggi at Barclays Center on June 22, 2013, and Garcia, coming off a lengthy layoff, defeated Elio Rojas via fifth-round TKO at the arena on July 30, 2016.
Broner, a three-division world champion by the age of 23, and one of the youngest four-division world champions in boxing history, remains one of the most accomplished and popular athletes in the sport today. Among the top 140-pounders in the world, Broner is undefeated at or below 140 pounds with his only two losses coming against welterweight world champions Marcos Maidana and Shawn Porter. На толькі 27 гадоў, Broner (33-2, 24 КО) still believes he is the future of the sport and looks to prove it against Garcia onСубота, Ліпеня 29.
Hailing from Cincinnati, Агаё, Broner has achieved more in his young career than most fighters can hope for in a lifetime. After earning world titles at 130, 135 і 147 фунты, Broner won a belt in a fourth weight division – 140 фунты – у кастрычніку 2015 when he defeated Khabib Allakhverdiev via 12й round stoppage to become the second youngest four-division champion in boxing history at 26 (behind Oscar De La Hoya, 24). Broner will turn 28 years old on Ліпеня 28, the day before his bout with Garcia.
Гарсія, 29 years old and undefeated (36-0, 30 КО), is a recently crowned lightweight champion and one of the best pound-for-pound boxers in the sport. He will move up in weight for the second time in just three fights to challenge Broner. Гарсія з'яўляецца членам вядомай сям'і бокса, і вядомы за яго спартыўны і яго камандзір прысутнасць у кольцы, вывастраныя яго брат і вядомы трэнер Роберт Гарсія. He has held world titles at 126, 130 і 135 фунты, but has never fought above 138.
Гарсія, з Moreno Valley шляхам Окснарда, Каліфорнія., вярнуўся на рынг пасля двух з паловай гадоў звальнення ў ліпені 2016 without missing a beat. After defeating Rojas, Garcia became a three-division champion by beating previously undefeated lightweight world champion Dejan Zlaticanin with a vicious third-round knockout this January. Garcia has stopped 19 з яго апошніх 21 праціўнікі, уключаючы Рамана “Скалісты” Марцінес, Хуан Мануэль Лопес, Orlando Salido and Bernabe Concepcion.

Hoffman, 86, has managed, advised or promoted 38 world champions during nearly 50 years working in the boxing industry. A product of Brooklyn and Bronx, Hoffman still advises some boxes and attends fights, but he enjoys spending time with his family, especially his grandchildren.
Hoffman worked with 38 world champions starting in 1980 з Joe Manleyand later including his first world heavyweight champion, Michael Benntt, as well as others such as Хасім Рахман |, Іран Барклая і Джэймс Тоні.
Suriname-native Tuur (46-4-1, 30 КО), who fought out of Hoogvliet, Нідэрланды, быў 1988 Алімпіец. У 1991, Tuur became the New York State lightweight champion and the following year, he captured the European super featherweight titlist.
Tuur defeated 28-1-1 Eugene Speed by 12-round unanimous decision to become World Boxing Organization (WBO) World Super Featherweight Champion. He held the WBO crown for two years, (1994-1996), successfully defending it six times, before retiring for five years until he made a comeback in 2001.

LANCASTER, ТАКОЙ ЯК. (Чэрвеня 12, 2017) – Экс-чэмпіён свету Брэндон Рыас (34-3-1, 24 КО) returned to the ring with a seventh round TKO of Mexico’s Аарон Herrera (23-7-1, 14 КО) у галоўную падзею Прэм'ер Бокс чэмпіёнаў на FS1 і FOX Sports Нядзеляnight from The Pioneer Event Center in Lancaster, Каліфорнія.
“I had that good nervous feeling tonight, like before my pro debut,” сказаў Рыас. “I was a little jittery but it felt good in there.”
In his first fight у 19 месяцы, Rios showed off his signature exciting style in breaking down the very game Herrera before stopping him late in their welterweight contest. Rios controlled the action from the outset as he showed off his strong inside game while tagging Herrera with hooks and uppercuts.
Herrera received a fair deal of punishment across the early rounds but remained competitive in consistently throwing back against the aggressive Rios, who was able to parry some of Herrera’s shots with effective head movement. Herrera had his best round in the fourth when he changed the tides momentarily by being more active than Rios.
“I’m always ready for whoever they put in front of me,” сказаў Рыас. “He was tough and he was swinging hard. I had to be careful and couldn’t go in there crazy. He caught me sometimes but that’s part of the sport.”
The shift did not last long as Rios ramped the pressure back up and began to slow Herrera down with increased body work. Herrera kept fighting back but was clearly tiring late in the sixth round as Rios teed off on him against the ropes with big power punches.
“Next time I get in there I’ll be better,” сказаў Рыас. “You’ll see more progress each time I get out there. I still have my same style but I’m adding some more athleticism and head movement to it. I felt like I did well in there.”
The attack continued in the seventh round as Rios stalked Herrera towards the ropes before eventually delivering the pinpoint right hook to the body that put Herrera on the mat. Herrera was unable to beat the count and Rios returned to the win column with a stoppage victory2:11 у раўндзе.
“This is a new beginning and a new chapter in the book that I’m writing,” сказаў Рыас. “We’re ready to move forward from here. I’m ready for the next challenge.”
The co-main event of the telecast saw unbeaten Марыё Барриос (19-0, 11 КО) score a sensational knockout of Jose Luis Rodriguez (23-9-1, 13 КО) with left hook to the body that ended their super lightweight battle in the seventh round.
“I knew that he was going to fight the whole time,” Саід Барриос. “He was going to stay coming in and I had to keep my distance. I stunned him with an overhand and then I found him on the liver.”
Barrios was impressive from the start, using his length to pick off his opponent with powerful uppercuts in the opening minutes of the bout. Despite taking numerous clean power shots from Barrios throughout the battle, Rodriguez never stopped attacking and was able to occasionally frustrate Barrios with his relentless physicality.
The bout was eventually defined by the powerful body shots that Barrios dedicated himself to delivering throughout the fight. The consistent effort clearly slowed Rodriguez, who took more and more clean punches as the fight went on.
Early in round seven Barrios’ attack finally wore Rodriguez down as a series of punches culminating with the left to the body put Rodriguez on the canvas. Referee Zac Young quickly called off the bout 37 seconds into the round to give Barrios his third straight knockout victory.
“I want to fight everyone in the 140-pound weight class,” Саід Барриос. “I’m going to take it one fight at a time and work my way up to a world title shot.”
У першым баі тэлеперадачы, расце перспектыва Jose Miguel Borrego (12-0,11 КО) remained unbeaten with a fourth-round stoppage of Kevin Watts (11-2, 4 КО) in their super lightweight matchup.
Watts was the more aggressive fighter in round one, controlling the action with his jab as Borrego switched stances but threw few punches. Watts continued to have success in round two sticking Borrego with power shots while avoiding the returning punches Borrego threw back.
The third round saw Borrego begin to break through the guard of Watts with powerful left hooks, which seemed to slow the movement of the previously once-beaten Watts, who began to stand and exchange more with his opponent. As the action heated up in round four, Borrego connected with a massive left hook that stunned and bloodied Watts’ right eye.

Borrego kept up the attack and eventually sent Watts to the canvas with another left hand over two minutes into the round. While Watts returned to his feet, Borrego quickly cornered him and delivered another flurry that forced referee Jack Reiss to halt the bout 2:42 у раўндзе.
