“It’s a big moment in my career. I want to thank all of the people who are involved with this fight, my promoter Kathy Duva, Roc Nation and HBO Pay-Per-View. Thank you to all of my fans. It will be a fight to remember; one for the history books. I just want to give the fans a really great fight in Vegas and on HBO Pay-Per-View.”
أندريه "S.O.G." وارد – Two-Time World Champion
“I’m grateful to be here today. I want to thank everyone who is associated with this event—the good, السيئ, the press, كل ذلك. Obviously HBO, بيتر نيلسون, روك نيشن, الاحداث الرئيسية, everyone who’s associated with it. It’s hard to thank everybody.

That’s what we should all focus on.
“I thank God for this opportunity. I thank God for my career and being able to compete at a high level through the peaks and valleys. Sometimes that gets overlooked, a veteran in the game. I’ve paid my dues and I continue to pay my dues. This is just another opportunity. I’ve been in this position before and so has my opponent. It doesn’t matter what the other side says, how they feel, what they say. He’s got to get it done and I’ve got to get it done. When those bright lights come on who it’s all about who executes and who gets it done. I don’t have to throw chairs. I don’t have to cuss. I don’t have to act crazy. I said let’s fight, lets fight. You’re selling yourself. I know that what I possess and what I have is in me, and not on me.”
كاثي Duva – CEO, الاحداث الرئيسية
"وأخيرا. There was a time when fighters didn’t consider preserving their undefeated records to be paramount to engaging in actual competition. There was a time when undefeated fighters who were heading to the Hall of Fame actually sought out greater and greater challenges as their careers progressed. There was a time when fighters were courageous athletes and not simply cynical businessmen.
“The two men who are here with us today—both in their athletic primes, both unbeaten, و, في رأيي, both heading to the Hall of Fame someday—chose to put their 0’s on the line and face each other to find out just which one of them is the very best. That is why they deserve to earn your pay-per-view dollars, this is what pay per view is supposed to be. That is why we should move heaven and earth in order to come to the beautiful T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas where this fight will take place. That is why the winner will earn the title of best pound-for-pound fighter in the ring.
“Since Ring Magazine began to keep records of the pound-for-pound fighters there have only been two occasions when two unbeaten top five fighters have competed in the ring for pound-for-pound supremacy. The first was Meldrick Taylor vs. Julio Caesar Chavez Sr. في 1994, the second time was Oscar De La Hoya vs Felix Trinidad in 1999. That means that on 19 نوفمبر, this will be the very first time in the 21st century that such an event will occur in our sport. Let’s hope this is the start of something new, a throwback to the way boxing used to be when it was at its best. Let’s hope it doesn’t take another 17 years before this happens again. Let’s hope all the up and coming young sweet scientists learn and follow the example of these young great athletes who sit here today.
“So as I said, finally, I’m quite pleased to officially announce “Pound for Pound” and that on السبت, 19 نوفمبر, two of the five best fighters in the whole world will fight each other. المنظمة العالمية للملاكمة, WBA and IBF Light Heavyweight Champion Sergey “Krusher” Kovalev, من هو 30-0, will risk all three of his world titles against two-time world middleweight champion Andre “SOG” Ward, who is also 30-0. The fight will take place in Las Vegas, sponsored by our friends at the MGM Grand Hotel and Casino, at the beautiful new T-Mobile Arena. التذاكر متوفرة الآن, they’re starting at $155 right now because the box office has already sold out all of the $55 tickets we put on sale. You can only get these tickets at the T-Mobile box office and online through AXS.com.

بايامون, بويرتو ريكو (سبتمبر 6, 2016) - في أقل من أسبوعين, اتحاد الملاكمة العالمي #8 ranked super bantamweight Luis “Orlandito” Del Valle enters the ring against unbeaten and highly regarded Diego De La Hoya.
The bout opens the Saul “Canelo” Alvarez –Liam Smith HBO pay-per-view telecast السبت, سبتمبر 17 من في&ملعب تي في أرلينغتون, TX and is scheduled for ten rounds. من وادي, who fought on HBO and Showtime on multiple occasions, considers this bout the most important of his career as he’s facing a foe that is in a position he himself was once in.
“Going into my fight with Vic Darchinyan, I was unbeaten and there was a lot of hype behind me,"سعيد ديل فالي, من هو 22-2 مع 16 بالضربة القاضية. “That fight was supposed to get me to the next level with a victory over a former world champion but unfortunately it didn’t go down that way. Vic had a ton of experience and was the better man that night. I learned a lot as a man, fighter and about preparation at the top level. Now I feel that I’m in the role Vic was against me when I face De La Hoya.”
To ensure he excels on the grandest stage of his career, Del Valle’s currently in a grueling training camp in his native Puerto Rico. With head trainer Emilo Lozada leading the way, Del Valle’s put in countless hours honing his craft. Against the 15-0 دي لا هويا, in what most expect to be the kind of high octane fight that epitomizes the Puerto Rico vs Mexico rivalry, Del Valle added new strength and conditioning drills so he’s able to engage in a high octane battle without running out of gas.
“It’s no secret that I bring the fight to everybody that gets in the ring with me. Diego and his team are looking to prove that he’s the real deal and they expect an impressive Mexican-style performance from him. What that means is this has all the makings of a fast paced brawl where nobody wants to take a step backwards. In order to come out of the battle as the victor, you’ve got to be ready for war. After what I’ve been through physically, mentally and emotionally in my training, أنا أكثر من جاهز. All of the hard work will pay off when I break Diego De La Hoya down سبتمبر 17!"

نيويورك (سبعة. 6, 2016) – Light heavyweight Radivoje “Hot Rod” Kalajdzic will face unbeaten southpaw Travis “The Notorious” Peterkin in the 10-round main event of a stacked ShoBox: الجيل الجديد quadrupleheader على الجمعة, سبعة. 23, يعيشون على موعد العرض (10 عصرا. و/PT, تأخر على الساحل الغربي) من Buffalo Run كازينو في ميامي, أوكلاهوما.
The combined record of the eight boxers on the televised card is 114-3-1 مع 78 بالضربة القاضية.
Kalajdzic, 25, القديس. بطرسبرج, فلوريدا., وPeterkin, 26, of the Brownsville section of Brooklyn, N.Y., سيكون يدلون ShoBox debuts and initial 10-round starts.
This is Kalajdzic’s first fight since losing a highly controversial and questionable eight-round split decision to unbeaten 2012 أولمبي ماركوس براون آخر أبريل 16 في بروكلين. Kalajdzic is clamoring for a rematch with the world-ranked Browne, but he can’t overlook the strong, athletic Peterkin, who is coming off a shutout decision over لاري بريور آخر مارس 30 and is looking for a breakout performance.
في ShoBox شارك في ميزة, super lightweight powerhouse إيفان "الوحش" Baranchyk (11-0, 10 كوس), من بروكلين, N.Y., faces Roc Nation prospect’s وانغ تشى مين (7-0, 3 كوس, 7-1 WSB), of Nutley, N.J. by way of Ningbo, الصين, in a 10-rounder for the vacant USBA 140-pound title. In a scheduled eight-round bout, Ukrainian welterweight إيفان "إن فولك" غولوب (12-0, 10 كوس, 5-0 WSB), من بروكلين, يأخذ على James “Keep’em Sleepin” Stevenson (23-2, 16 كوس), من بالتيمور, MD.
Local favorite and son of the late former world heavyweight champion, Tommy “The Duke” Morrison, الوزن الثقيل Trey Lippe Morrison (11-0, 11 كوس) makes his highly anticipated television debut against fellow unbeaten and Roc Nation prospect إد لاتيمور (13-0, 7 كوس), بيتسبرغ, ولاية بنسيلفينيا, in the six-round telecast opener.
Tickets for the event promoted by DiBella Entertainment and Tony Holden Productions in association with Roc Nation Sports are priced at $35, $55 و $75 وتتوفر فيbuffalorun.com وفي stubwire.com. (ال $35 tickets are sold out).
Kalajdzic (21-1, 14 كوس), a 6-foot-2 native of Bosnia and Herzegovina, turned pro in June 2011. فاز الاولى له 21 fights before losing to Browne in a bout in which many felt he won easily. براون (18-0) landed an occasional hard shot, but Kalajdzic seemed to control the fight with his power and awkward style. Both boxers hit the deck, Kalajdzic (from what appeared to be a slip) في الاول, براون (clearly) in the sixth from a right hand to the head. Receiving credit for a knockdown in which no punch appeared to connect was the difference, and the fans booed when the scores of 76-75, 76-74 و 74-76 were announced.
“I am really excited about this fight and that I am on television again fighting another undefeated southpaw,"قال Kalajdzic. “I am continuing where I left off with training camp from my previous fight since it’s another southpaw, so I will be more than prepared. نأمل, Peterkin comes to fight and not hug like my last opponent did so we can give the fans a good fight.”
Peterkin (16-0-1, 7 كوس) would still have an unblemished record if not for losing two points in an eight-round majority draw with 2008 الدومينيكان أولمبي لينين كاستيلو (12-0) في أغسطس. 1, 2015 في مركز باركليز. Peterkin had a point deducted in the fourth for hitting after the break and in the fifth for a low blow. وكانت عشرات 76-74 و 75-75 مرتين.
Despite the draw in his outing before last, Peterkin considered this the most gratifying moment of his life. من 2012-14, he stocked and served food in the suites at Barclays. في أحدث جهوده, Peterkin easily outpointed Pryor by the scores of 80-72 three times in New York. This will be Peterkin’s first fight outside of his home state.
A good boxer with excellent technique, Peterkin was introduced to boxing by his father, Bernard, ل 1987 heavyweight Golden Gloves semifinalist, في 2001. ذهب 95-7 في الهواة; after winning the 2010 قفازات نيويورك الذهبي, he went pro in January 2011.
“I was ringside at Hot Rod’s last fight. أنا أحترمه, but I saw what his flaws are and will exploit them,” said Peterkin. “I am anticipating a war. Brooklyn is coming to Oklahoma and I will not disappoint. في سبعة. 23, greatness beckons.”
Baranchyk, an offensive-minded fighting machine, packs outstanding power in both hands. He’s making his third appearance on ShoBox and third in a row at Buffalo Run. His otherShoBox يبدأ, both first-round knockouts versus undefeated opponents, totaled a combined2:49.
The highly regarded, all-action Baranchyk registered a brutal, two-punch, 21-second stoppage over نيكولاس جيفان (16-0-1) آخر مارس 25 في ShoBox at Buffalo Run. He scored a 2:28, الجولة الأولى بالضربة القاضية على شادي شحادة (9-0-2) في كتابه ShoBox debut last ديسمبر. 11 في هيوستن, تكساس.
Baranchyk was born in Minsk, Byelorussia and lives in Brooklyn. He’s won eight straight by knockout, including a third-round TKO over previously undefeated Joaquim "Eliseo” الصليب (9-0-1) آخر يونيو 25 at Buffalo Run. Dominant with his speed and power from the outset, Baranchyk dropped Cruz in the second. Cruz’s corner threw in the towel at 1:07 من الثالثة.
جميع 10 of the 5-foot-7, 23-year-old Baranchyk’s knockouts have come inside three full rounds, including six in the first. He’s fought 22 rounds in an 11-fight career. The only time he went the distance was in his third fight, a four-rounder in December 2014. Baranchyk, a former European amateur standout, turned pro in June ‘14 and relocated to the United States a few months later.
“I couldn’t be more excited about returning to ShoBox,” said Baranchyk. “Zhimin is a very skilled fighter and he will be my toughest opponent yet. لكن, I intend on ending this bout in devastating fashion. I guarantee you will see Zhimin on his back when the fight is over. I am looking to send a message to the rest of the junior welterweight division that I am someone to be feared.”
Zhimin, 30, أصبح محترفًا في نوفمبر 2010 and fought eight times in the WSB through 2011. After a three-year layoff, he relocated to the U.S. and has gone 7-0. He’s coming off an eight-round decision over Matthew Doherty آخر يونيو 11. Zhimin had great success in the WSB, winning the gold in 2011 in his native China, defeating Yerzhan Mussafirov of Kazakhstan in the tightly contested lightweight final. قبل ذلك, he reached the final in the Chinese National Boxing Championship in 2010, where he received a silver medal. في 2012, فاز بالميدالية الفضية أخرى, هذه المرة في مسابقة أردوس الدولية للملاكمة.
“It’s an honor for me to be a part of this great event,” said Zhimin. “I want to thank the promoters, my team and everyone who gave me this opportunity. My goal is to get that belt. I know it’s a process full of challenges, but I am not afraid of what lies ahead. I know that I will make it. I have faith in myself. I will do whatever I can to prepare myself for this title showdown and give the fans my best performance and bring home the belt.”
غولوب, a 27-year-old who, at 6-feet, is tall for a welterweight, turned pro as a middleweight in November 2012. في بداية حياته المهنية, ذهب 5-0 in the WSB. لقد رحل 12-0 منذ, فوز 10 بالضربة القاضية, including his last six in a row, the last three as a welterweight.
في كتابه ShoBox لاول مرة, he touched the canvas for the first time in his career, but bounced back to blast out مياه مارلون with a series of combinations in the closing seconds of the sixth. He won by TKO.
غولوب, a southpaw who’s coming off a second-round TKO over Ernesto Ortiz آخر يوليو 21, was an outstanding amateur. ذهب 270-32 كهاو, was a five-time national champion in Ukraine and won bronze at the 2009 بطولة العالم للهواة.
“Stevenson has a lot of experience and I am preparing for a very tough fight,” said Golub. “He is a guy that likes to sit on his punches and trade, which is exactly what I want. Once he feels my power, he is going to be in trouble. This will be an exciting fight for as long as it lasts.”
Stevenson is making his ShoBox لاول مرة. مؤيد منذ 2008, he won his first 21 scraps until losing by ninth-round TKO to then-undefeated سامي فاسكيز في أغسطس. 8, 2014. The fight was competitive for five rounds before Vasquez took over. Stevenson went down in the ninth.
The 5-foot-11, 33-year-old Stevenson has won two-of-three since, بما في ذلك بالضربة القاضية الفنية في الجولة الخامسة على Kevin Womack آخر مايو 14 in his first fight في 13 أشهر. A hard-hitting boxer-puncher, Stevenson has feasted on modest opposition and is still seeking a signature victory.
Stevenson has produced a respectable record in spite of his career getting sidetracked by a series of setbacks and tragedies. في 2011, during a routine jog, a dog viciously attacked him, requiring Stevenson to get more than 20 stitches. بعد ذلك بوقت قصير, his father James Stevenson Sr. passed away, as did his mother-in-law.
“I appreciate the opportunity,” said Stevenson. “But they made a big mistake giving me the time to get ready for this fight. I’m training real hard and I’m coming to make a statement. I’m not scared of Golub and I promise it won’t go the distance. I’m putting him to sleep.”
Morrison has registered eight first-round knockouts, two second-round knockouts and one fourth-round KO in a career that began in February 2014. موريسون, who bears a striking resemblance to his late father facially, physique-wise and with his fighting style, turns 27 فيسبعة. 27. He’s fought all but one of his fights in Oklahoma; this is his 10عشر start at Buffalo Run.
A popular member of Holden’s Four State Franchise stable, the 6-foot-2 Morrison is fighting for the first time since he underwent surgery on his right tendon from an injury suffered in his most recent bout, a fourth-round TKO over Thomas Hawkins آخر يناير. 23.
“I have worked so hard to get to this point and now this is my chance to show the world who I am. I want to thank SHOWTIME for the opportunity,” said Morrison. “Latimore is a huge step up in class for me, but I am ready for it. Once I hear those Oklahoma fans and feel the energy inside the arena, I flip a switch and it’s go-time. This is going to be my coming-out party.”
Latimore, who majored in physics in college, is a boxer-puncher expected to give Morrison his toughest test. Latimore is making his ShoBox debut and fourth start this year. He’s coming off an eight-round split decision over Juan Goode آخر يوليو 15.
6 أقدام 1, 31-year-old Latimore turned pro in January 2013. كهاو, he won the Pennsylvania Golden Gloves, National PAL and Ringside Championships, and was victorious over 2012 أولمبي دومينيك Breazeale and former IBF Heavyweight Champion تشارلز مارتن.
“Morrison will be a real test for me,” said Latimore. “It’s never easy to fight someone in their backyard. I just fought in my hometown of Pittsburgh so I know the feeling coming into it and the momentum on fight night. I am looking forward to putting on a good show for all the fans in Oklahoma and those watching on ShoBox."
