Here is what Lubin and his trainer had to say الخميس:
إريكسون لوبين
I haven’t stopped training since my last fight on ديسمبر 10. We have been full throttle since.
“هذا هو معركة كبيرة. It is a title eliminator. It is at Barclays Center. It is on CBS. You’ve got Danny Garcia and Keith Thurman in the main event. It is 12-rounds. This is definitely what I’ve dreamed of. This is the kind of opportunity that I’ve wanted. Getting to seize the moment. Going out there, dominating the fight and going on to become the mandatory challenger for the title.
We always say that we aren’t training for the fight coming up, we’ve training for the title. I’ve prepared for this. To be the youngest world champion, we just saw Gervonta Davis do that and make history like that is a blessing. I can’t wait to go for that.
The fans can expect straight fireworks. I am going to go out there and dominate the fight. A lot of fighters say they’re going to do something, but I am the type of guy that says it and lives up to it. مارس 4 fans definitely want to tune in.
[على ال “مطرقة” ring name] “There are hammers in my hands. They punish and do damage. A hammer with fireworks is dangerous isn’t it?
It is my first time fighting in Brooklyn. I expect a lot of stars to be there. A lot of people having their eyes on me. I am expecting to become the mandatory for the belt and for everyone to know my name.
“2017 is a big year. To be in this position right now is a great start for the year and to become a mandatory challenger is bigger and becoming a world champion is the biggest. I want to be undisputed.
JASON GALARZA, Lubin’s Trainer
I’ve known Erickson since he was eight-years-old. He had an aura about him back then and he still has it. He continues to be a hard-working individual. He has this drive that most athletes don’t have, but the great ones do.
There are a lot of people that don’t know of him, but there are actually a lot that do. We are going to go up to Brooklyn and show the fans at Barclays Center and the world, what we do and what he is made of.
We have a family-based gym here. The guys that have been around Erickson from the beginning. We hit the road for the first two years of his career. We did our homework. I learned from a lot of top coaches, what to do and what not to do.
I learned what I should and shouldn’t do to train a professional, but you can’t teach the chemistry that he and I have. When you are in with him, you are all the way in.
People have told me that Erickson isn’t ready for Cota. I believe this is the right time. He pushes himself, he is a student of the game and always has been. The difference with this training camp from others is that we know who our opponent is. We have focused on that one individual, so we know.
I’m from Brooklyn and I haven’t been there in about seven years. So Erickson is bringing me home.
Fans can expect fireworks. This kid is very explosive. They will see a mature fighter at 21 سنة. He will have so many more fans after March 4th.”

أدريان BRONER
I know everyone is used to me coming up here and being boastful. That’s not me anymore. I have a lot of respect for Adrian Granados and he’s a great fighter.
A businessman that can fight. That’s what I am nowadays. I’m not a sh*t talker anymore. I’m a businessman that knows how to fight.
My best knockouts come when I don’t go for the knockout. I look at my last fight and think to myself that it was terrible because I was looking for the knockout. I watch the Khabib fight, I didn’t look for the knockout and it came. That’s when the biggest knockouts come. I just want to go in there and put on a great performance for the hometown crowd.
I just want to put on a great performance for everyone in Cincinnati. It’s going to be a special atmosphere and I want to give them their money’s worth.
I’ve had an amazing training camp and I feel great right now. I’m very thankful to my team who has helped me get to this point in my career.

I’m excite for this weekend. أنا مستعد للذهاب. I’ve been through a lot but we’re ready. I’m not here to lay down. I’m here to take home a victory for Chicago and for my people.
السبت I’m expecting a great fight. It is going to be a kill or be killed-type of fight. It is going to be a very exciting night for all of us.
People that think I’m an underdog don’t know me. They don’t know the tricks I have up my sleeve. I plan on thriving in the underdog position.
I’ve watched Adrien fight live on TV and in the arena many times. Spending eight weeks with him [في المخيم], I think I know him more than most people.
I plan on winning in a stoppage or a unanimous decision. No matter what I’m leaving with a victory.
“انها ستكون معركة كبيرة. We have a lot of mutual respect. Mixed with my style, I know it’s going to be a good fight. I hope everyone is ready for a great show.
DAVID AVANESYAN
I’m very happy to have this fight in America. This is my second time fighting in the U.S. and I’m looking forward to keeping my belt after fighting Lamont Peterson في.يوم السبت.
I am excited to be fighting on a show like this. I hope that if I can get another win I can get even bigger fights and prove that I’m the best.
“أنا مستعد لهذا التحدي. I know Lamont Peterson is looking to make this a great fight and I hope he brings it in the ring في.يوم السبت.”
LAMONT PETERSON
I had a great camp. I’m thankful to my team for getting me ready for this one. We got some great sparring that has me ready for this fight.
I’m ready to take care of business في.يوم السبت ليل. I’m looking forward to it and I hope everyone enjoyed it.
We always want to be in good condition. Avanesyan switches from southpaw to orthodox a lot, which is something we had to be prepared for. We’ve sparred with guys from both sides and gotten a lot of good rounds there.
He’s a strong fighter too. You know a Russian fighter is going to come in with power. We made sure I’ll be able to match him anytime the fight gets rough. I’ll be ready for anything.
I think my speed will give him trouble. He’s been able to handle everything in the past, but that doesn’t mean I won’t have advantages. I’m the more experienced fighter and I have the skills to get the win.
I feel like I’m going to get him out of there. I’m predicting a late stoppage.
MARCUS BROWNE
Top Dog can say what he wants to say. في.يوم السبت night we’ll be Dog Whisperers. Make sure you tune-in for this one.
I’ve had a great training camp and I feel ready to get in the ring. السبت night can’t come soon enough for me.
I’m thankful to have this opportunity to fight on a great card like this. I’ve seen guys like Adrien and Lamont in the ring for a lot of years and I’m proud to be up here with them.
توماس ويليامز جونيور.
“انا اشعر بفخر كبير. It was an awesome camp. Everyone should buy a ticket or watch it on TV. Get there early and don’t miss my fight.
Marcus is a boxer and I know he’s going to try to kick and scratch every now and then. If you let him get comfortable, he’s going to get in a zone. My job is to make him uncomfortable and make him do the things that I want him to do.
Everybody who knows me, knows what I bring to the table. When I get in the ring you know what’s coming. السبت ليل, ‘Top Dogwill reign.

Jermall Charlo Vacates IBF Junior Middleweight World Title

After Going Undefeated At 154 جنيه, تشارلو
Moves To 160 pounds In Search of Bigger Challenges And World Title In
Tough Middleweight Division
هيوستن, TEXAS (فبراير 16, 2017) – Undefeated champion Jermall تشارلو relinquished the IBF junior middleweight title this afternoon in order to pursue bigger challenges and another world championship in the middleweight division.
تشارلو, 26, who lives and trains in Houston, has a sterling record of 25-0 مع 19 كوس. He won the title with a TKO victory over Cornelius Bundrage on Sept. 12, 2015, and successfully defended it three times, defeating Wilky Campfort, former 154-pound champion Austin Trout and top contender Julian Williams. Charlo leaves the division after an impressive KO victory over Williams at the Galen Center on the USC campus in Los Angeles on Dec. 10, 2016.
توني هاريسون (24-1, 20 كوس) and Jarrett Hurd (19-0, 13 كوس) will battle for the vacant IBF 154-pound title on the undercard of Deontay Wilder defending his heavyweight title against Gerald Washington on primetime on Premier Boxing Champions on FOX and FOX Deportes at the Legacy Arena in Birmingham, Alabama on السبت, فبراير 25. تبدأ والتغطية التلفزيونية في 8 عصرا. و/5 عصرا. PT.
Charlo’s twin brother, Jermell, still has the WBC 154-pound title and will defend it against Charles Hatley at the MGM National Harbor in Maryland on السبت, مارس 11.
I’ve been thinking about moving to 160 pounds for a while now,” Charlo said. “It was a struggle for me to make the weight for the last title fight. Once I captured the title I defended it immediately, because I wasn’t sure how long I could hold the weight. I held it an extra year to fight Austin Trout and Julian Williams. I feel there are bigger and better things for me at 160 where I can still hold my weight and be stronger. The idea of being a two-time world champion is a big goal for me.
If there were a big fight at 154 pounds left for me, I’d stick around and wait for it. But there isn’t anything there that can be made quickly. And I wouldn’t fight my brother or my gym mate and close friend, Erislandy Lara.
Charlo’s trainer, روني شيلدز, is in favor of the move up to a higher division.
It’s a move that has to be made,” وقال شيلدز. “He was definitely having trouble making that weight. No sense in holding himself down in making that weight. Going up to 160 pounds is a must. I think he does well there. He’s big enough to handle the weight. It’s not like we have to do anything special to compete at 160 جنيه. That’s basically what he isa middleweight.
Charlo doesn’t anticipate any problems with moving up. He plans to make his middleweight debut soon.
I’ve been training for a couple weeks now. It’s like a mini-camp. I’ve been shaking out,” Charlo said. “We’re looking at May to be completely ready. I’m a big athlete already. I’m just looking forward to taking my superstar status and competing with the big boys up there.

ترقيات غريغ كوهين يوقع المنافس ذو الوزن الثقيل جوي داويكو على اتفاقية ترويجية

يعلن Greg Cohen Promotions بفخر عن توقيع المنافس للوزن الثقيل Joey Dawejko (17-4-3, 10 كوس).

Dawejko (أعلنها دا فايكو) فيلادلفيا, لقد كان منخفضًا كلاسيكيًا, حتى الآن, في حياته المهنية, لكنه يقول إن إضافة كوهين كمروّج له هي مجرد واحدة من التغييرات التي أجراها.

لطالما كان فيلادلفيان البالغ من العمر 26 عامًا موهوبًا, باعتراف الجميع, لم يكن دائمًا في أفضل حالاته خلال معاركه. “مديري, مارك سيبارون, غير حياتي,” he explained. “اعتدت على خوض المعارك في إشعار مدته أسبوع مقابل المال, لذلك لم أعطيها قط 100%. أكثر, كنت اعمل 12-14 ساعات في اليوم كسقف. في اليوم الأول جئت معه, أخبرته أنني لا أستطيع إنشاء صالة الألعاب الرياضية اليوم لأنني سأعمل ولن أتمكن من الوصول إلى هناك في الوقت المناسب. قال "استقال. هذه هي وظيفتك بدوام كامل الآن.”

“كل شيء سيكون مختلفا من الآن فصاعدا,” سعيد Dawejko. “أنا شخص مختلف, مقاتل مختلف, كل شيء مختلف وأنا أتحسن كثيرًا. لدي فريق جديد وأنا أتدرب في لوس أنجلوس. أعيش حياة جديدة ويسعدني أن أعمل أخيرًا مع جريج كوهين. يمكنه أن يجلب لي المعارك الكبيرة التي أحتاجها. سيكون الأمر رائعا لأنني فقط بحاجة إلى فرصة في مواجهة خصم كبير آخر.”

على الرغم من صغر سنه نسبيا 26 سنوات, دوجكو يمارس الملاكمة منذ سن التاسعة, حيث ظهر لأول مرة كوزن ذبابة صغير. تمكنه الخبرة التي تدوم مدى الحياة من استخدام 5′ 10″ الارتفاع للعمل يتحرك تحت اللكمات من عمالقة الوزن الثقيل اليوم ويقومون بعمل قوي. تمكن من الاحتفاظ بالمنافس الأعلى جاريل “كبير الطفل” ميلر إلى التعادل 2013.

كان قرار الخسارة أمام المتصدر أمير منصور في 2015, لكن, التي جعلته إلى الأمام قفزات كبيرة كمقاتل.

“كانت أول قتال لي من 10 جولات ولم أكن أنا نفسي في تلك الليلة. كلفني خسارة, لكنه ربما كان شيئًا جيدًا لأنني تعلمت الكثير من تلك المعركة. بمجرد انتهائه, كنت مقاتلا أفضل. أدركت ما يجب أن أفعله بشكل أفضل ومختلف.”

“لا يزال جوي شابًا لوزن ثقيل,” وقال جريج كوهين. “في الماضي, لم يكن مستعدًا جيدًا كما كان يجب أن يكون وما زال قادرًا على التغلب على كل شخص يواجهه تقريبًا. جوي Dawejko المركّز والحازم يمثل مشكلة لأي شخص في العالم وأنا كذلك 100% متأكد من أن جوي يمكنه الفوز بلقب عالمي. أنا متحمس لقيادة مسيرته مع مديره المتفاني, مارك سيبارون.”

يقول Dawejko إنه في حين أنه سعيد بالابتعاد عن الانحرافات في المنزل للتدريب ، وفي النهاية في وضع يمكنه من الوصول إلى إمكاناته, إنه يفتقد عائلته الصغيرة والمتنامية.

“خطيبتي في المنزل مع أطفالي. لدي ثلاث فتيات, سن 11, 4 وواحد 2 في أبريل. أكثر, لدي آخر في الطريق. إنه’ صعب الابتعاد عنهم. أنا أعطيها كلها من أجلهم.”

LAS VEGAS (فبراير. 15, 2017) – You may not have heard of Izuagbe Ugonoh…بعد. But the Polish-born heavyweight contender plans to change that when he takes on دومينيك Breazeale in a 10-round match on the undercard of WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder’s title defense against Gerald Washington in primetime on FOX and FOX Deportes, في Legacy أرينا في برمنغهام, Alabama on فبراير. 25.
I’m looking forward to displaying my skills and letting the U.S. boxing fans get a look at what I’m bringing to the heavyweight division,” Ugonoh said. “I’m very excited to be making my U.S. debut in primetime on FOX and FOX Deportes. Dominic Breazeale is a tough opponent, but he is also the kind of boxer that will allow me to put on an entertaining show for the fans in the arena and those watching on FOX and FOX Deportes.
Ugonoh, who prefers to be called Izu (pronounced E-Zoo), has a unique blend of athleticism, speed and power that he honed as a kickboxing champion in Poland before switching over to boxing in 2010. Starting with his match against the hard-hitting Breazeale (17-1, 15 كوس), Ugonoh has an ambitious timetable as he works his way toward fighting for a boxing world title.
This is my moment and 2017 هي لغتي العام,” Ugonoh said. “I want to challenge myself and show the world how good I am. I believe the heavyweight division is wide open right now, and the top fighters are going to bring the best out of me. If I do what I’m supposed to do, I can see myself fighting for a world championship in the next 18 أشهر.”
I’ve been hearing great things about Izu internationally for years,” وقال توم براون من الترقيات TGB. “انه لكبير, strong athletic heavyweight with good power. But Dominic isn’t a pushover. أكثر, he is coming off his first loss. He is in a make or break type fight. It’s the classic case of a guy with something to prove against a guy with a lot to lose.
The 30-year-old Ugonoh was born in Szczecin, بولندا, to Nigerian parents, and has a 17-0 سجل مع 14 بالضربة القاضية. Ugonoh has a master’s degree from Jedrzej Sniadecki School of Physical Education and Sports in Gdansk, بولندا. He grew up playing soccer, before focusing on becoming an elite, all-around fighter by training in kickboxing, boxing and martial arts.
Izu is a big, physically imposing, strong heavyweight who, while virtually unknown here, has developed a reputation abroad,” said Lou DiBella of DiBella Entertainment. “In his first fight on American soil, he will take on a legitimate heavyweight contender and world title challenger in Dominic Breazeale. We’re going to find out in Birmingham whether Izu is the real thing; if he’s able to shine, the mystery man is an immediate factor in the heavyweight division.
Not afraid to step out of his realm, Ugonoh was a contestant on the past season ofDancing With the Stars” في بولندا, making it to the final two rounds.
It was a lot of work,” هو قال. “I trained for 35 hours a week to dance for 1 minute 15 seconds on the show. Dancing was more work than boxing,” he laughed. “People laugh when I say that because they think I’m joking, but it was as much work as training camp. One of the key benefits is it improved my footwork in the ring.
Ugonoh is trained by Kevin Barry, the corner man for WBO heavyweight champion Joseph Parker and former heavyweight title challenger David Tua. Ugonoh has been fighting out of New Zealand for the last two years, but now he will train in Las Vegas and is ready to make a name for himself in the U.S.
With Barry in his corner, Ugonoh is anxious to power his way into the heavyweight championship ranks.
