I’m learning how to parry punches and my defense is improving. On offense, I’m using my jab more to set up combinations. With Chris in my corner, I feel I have someone who can help me make the proper adjustments in a fight.”
On facing veteran Allan Green:
“I know I’m up against a fighter in Allan Green who’s been in the ring and went the distance with some very good fighters. 他有很多的经验，, so I must fight wisely to be victorious. I’m going into this fight with a do or die mindset and I’m going to leave everything in the ring.”
On making the move from Miami to Las Vegas:
“It’s been a tremendous blessing since I moved here a few months ago from Miami. The quality of sparring I’m getting is just incredible.

On making his return to the ring:
“I only fought once last year so I’m hoping to get back on track fighting regularly in 2019. I think with a few more fights I’ll be ready to challenge anyone in my division. I just need to stay active.”

back to the amateur days in Sweden,” 杰克说. “It was great seeing

The SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING main
event promises fireworks and high-stakes action as both men bring their
fan-friendly styles to the ring. Here is what the press conference participants
had to say Thursday from the Conga Room at L.A. 直播:
GERVONTA DAVIS
“I believe that Abner Mares is a
future Hall of Famer because he’s fought so many top-level guys. This is big
for me because this is my first time being a main event in the U.S. and I just
feel blessed to be here.
“在 2019, I want to make a big statement
not only in the ring but by letting the boxing world know that I’m the next
star. I’m aiming to headline a pay-per-view by 2020 if everything goes right. I
have great fights lined up for next year, without looking past Abner.
“As soon as I got off the plane, I
went straight to the gym and got some work in with some guys there. We’re not
taking Abner lightly. I’m excited and blessed to be in this position. 二月
9, I’m confident it will be sold out and I’m confident that I will be that next
boxing star.
“I’ve always known that you can’t
underestimate anyone in the ring. You have to look at your opponent like
they’re equal to you. I understand exactly what I have in front of me.
“I don’t know what Abner sees, but he
was sure he wanted to take this fight so obviously he sees something. I have
power, 速度, movement and really a blend of everything. I believe that I’m a
better fighter than him.
“It’s all about being focused in that
ring and doing my job. I’m coming to get Abner Mares out of there.
“I wanted to fight Abner Mares out
here in Southern California. Floyd Mayweather fought Arturo Gatti in his
hometown and that’s basically what I’m doing here.”
押尼珥Mares
“One day I just thought to myself
that this fight against Gervonta Davis would be a great matchup and that I can
win it. There are other big fights at featherweight that I could have gotten.
I’m taking this fight because of the challenge that it brings. I’m all about
that.
“I’m coming off of a great close
fight against Leo Santa Cruz. I’m a winner every time I fight. I come to prove
people wrong and perform. Not too many people do that these days.
“We’ll already
have 50 percent of the fight won just by having a good corner, a good team and
a great plan. 另一个 50 percent is up to the fighter to perform. One thing
is having the game plan in your mind but it’s another thing to go out there and
perform that game plan.
“We’re not just
going into this fight blind. I’m not stupid. I’m taking this fight because I
see something in this guy. It’s a tough fight, 毫无疑问. All fights are tough.
He’s in for a good fight. 在一天结束时, you guys have to stop worrying
about my weight and if I’m too small. You guys are going to get a great fight
and that’s all that matters. Sit back, look pretty and enjoy the fight.
“You can’t compare
Jesus Cuellar to Gervonta Davis. I know some people wanted to compare how I did
against Cuellar and how Davis did against Cuellar, but he fought him two years
after I did. It makes no sense. Gervonta Davis has a different style than
Cuellar and it’s going to be a good fight. He’s an exciting fighter and he’s a
boxer. He’s a boxer that trades punches so it makes for an exciting fight.
“People are going to recognize me as
someone who took on everyone. People say this will be a new style for me, but
I’ve seen them all. This is team ‘no fear’ and we’re going to make this
happen.”
卡尔文·福特, 戴维斯’ 训练者
“This is a great chance for us to go
up against the great team that Abner Mares and Robert Garcia make. We’ve been
watching them for a long time and we’re looking forward to it.
“We’ve been doing
this for many years. We know that when it’s time to lock in, we’ll be locked
in. Sparring has been going well. We’re just taking our time and doing what we
have to do to get ready. We have a great team and everybody is doing their
part. It’s our time to show what we’re capable of.
“二月 9, that’s when Gervonta
Davis is going to step up and show the world what he truly is. I can’t wait for
everyone to see it.”
ROBERT GARCIA, 母亲’ 训练者
“Abner is very motivated. We have
very strong sparring partners and he’s doing a great job in the gym already.
Come February 9, everyone is in for a surprise. I respect Gervonta Davis and
his team, but I think Abner is hungrier and looking to make history.
“这将是一个伟大的斗争.
We’re excited to see a great crowd of fans out there to enjoy a fight that’s
going to be full of action.
“We know that this is a tough
challenge. I think of this like the Adrien Broner vs. Marcos Maidana fight.
Just like Davis, they said Broner is flashy, dangerous and this and that. But
you all know what happened. Same thing is going to happen this time
around.”
LEONARD ELLERBE, CEO of Mayweather
Promotions
“This is a fight the fans wanted.
These two guys have gone back and forth on social media and I’m excited that
they’re going to finally get in the ring on February 9.
“戴维斯VS. Mares is a thrilling
matchup between two very skilled warriors. You can’t expect anything but great
fireworks from this fight.
“You can’t say enough about Gervonta
Davis. 他还年轻, exciting and when he comes into the ring, he doesn’t play
games. That style is going to make this an electrifying matchup.
“You don’t see fighters like Gervonta
Davis very often. He has all the ingredients it takes to be a huge star. He
knows that he has room to improve and he truly wants to get better. He has a
tremendous skill set and you’ve only gotten a glimpse of what Gervonta Davis
brings to the table so far.
“Abner Mares really wanted this fight.
Any time a boxer goes out of his way to say ‘I want that guy’, the biggest and
baddest guy in the division, that speaks volumes to the confidence that Abner
Mares has. He’s exhibited this in all of his fights and he always performs at
the highest level.”
理查德·谢弗, 主席 & CEO of
Ringstar Sports
“This is a fascinating matchup taking
place at the perfect venue. This is a great fight to get 2019 去. It’s
youth, strength and size against experience, will and desire. May the best man
win.
“I want to thank both fighters for
coming together to make this fight happen. This is one that had been brewing
for a while. Gervonta Davis is the best fighter in his division and he’s one of
the guys who can talk the talk and walk the walk.
“Abner Mares has always sought out
the most difficult challenges in front of him. He is a legend in this sport and
one of the best fighters to ever come out of Mexico. These are the kinds of
challenges that make Abner what he is in this sport.
“Gervonta Davis is one of the rising
stars of the sport and Mares is one of its legendary champions. When you put
those two together, the ones who are going to win are the fight fans.
“People are excited about this fight.
Fans know that you never want to count out a great champion like Abner Mares.
This is of course a dangerous fight for Mares, that’s how good Gervonta Davis
is, but he obviously sees how he can win this fight.”
布鲁克林 (十二月 23, 2018) – WBC Interim Middleweight ChampionJermall夏洛茨维尔(28-0, 21 科斯) won a hard-fought unanimous decision over马特·科罗博夫 (28-2, 13 科斯) to defend his title in the main event of Premier Boxing Champions on FOX and FOX Deportes Saturday night from Barclays Center, the home of BROOKLYN BOXING™.
“I had fun in there with a tough opponent like that,” 说夏洛茨维尔. “I got the win and that’s the main thing. I still feel I’m the best in the world. I just need to prove it to the rest of the world.”
The southpaw Korobov had success early countering Charlo with straight left hands that landed cleanly, even if they didn’t deter Charlo from coming forward. Korobov was successful countering to the body as well and ended the fight with a 119 到 114 advantage in power punches landed according to CompuBox.
Charlo stayed consistent with his jab however through the early rounds and began to break through later as Korobov’s right eye appeared to close during the middle rounds. Charlo out-jabbed Korobov by a 56 到 9 advantage in jabs landed, and also threw nearly 200 more punches throughout the fight per CompuBox.
在第二轮 12 Charlo closed the show and nearly stopped Korobov, who used his experience to hold and move enough to survive the round. Charlo landed a clean left hook to the head early in the round that put Korobov on shaky legs, and he followed up with several strong punches that forced Korobov to try to survive.
“I used everything that happened tonight as motivation in the 12th round,” 说夏洛茨维尔. “I haven’t been that far in a fight in a couple of years. It felt good to be in there, get hit and bang with someone. He was an experienced guy who will make me better.”
经过12轮动作, Charlo won the unanimous decision by scores of 119-108 和 116-112, even after watching his twin brother lose a tough decision minutes prior to his fight starting. “I felt like Jermell made his fight harder than it was,” 说夏洛茨维尔. “I had a really tough opponent, but he wasn’t better than me. There was a lot on my mind in the ring.”
Korobov thought he had done enough to win the fight after he stepped in as a replacement opponent one week prior to fight night. “我以为我赢得了这场战斗,” 说科罗博夫. “It was definitely a fight that could have gone either way, but I believe the people know that I won. I’m the most avoided fighter in boxing and I showed why tonight. I hope this performance will get me another title fight.”
In a back-and-forth title showdown, 底特律活塞队的 托尼·哈里森 (28-2, 21 科斯) pulled off the upset to win a narrow unanimous decision overJermell夏洛茨维尔 (31-1, 15 科斯) and capture the WBC Super Welterweight Championship.
“I dictated the pace,” Harrison说. “That’s what champions do. He wound up for big shots and I kept my defense tight. All we worked on was defense. I kept my composure and I did what champions do.”
Charlo expressed his disagreement with the judges’ decision after the fight. “They took that fight from me,” 说夏洛茨维尔. “I was pressing the action. He didn’t win that fight.”
Harrison was effective with his jab as he attempted to keep the power-punching Charlo at bay. Harrison landed his biggest punch of the fight in round five when a straight left appeared to temporarily stun Charlo. Charlo was able to land several effective power punches throughout the 12 发, including an overhand right late in round five that wobbled Harrison.
Round nine saw both men land significant shots, which lead to an exchange where Charlo urged Harrison to keep coming forward. “I got back to my corner after every round and they told me to just keep doing what you’re doing,” Harrison说, “You’re dictating the pace they said. That’s what champions do. Champions don’t just try to knock people out. That’s all he wanted to do. I dictated it. 我用我的刺拳. I dictated the fight. That’s what champions do.”
Harrison was caught off balance in round 11 and again in round 12 by Charlo power punches, but was able to use his movement and hold at key times to survive both rounds. 后 12 rounds of action the judges preferred Harrison’s jab, movement and counters to the forward-charging power punches of Charlo. All three judges scored the fight for Harrison, 通过分数 116-112 和 115-113 两次. Per CompuBox, Harrison connected on 34 percent of his punches throughout the fight to Charlo’s 29 剪辑百分比, while Charlo out landed Harrison 160 到 128, plus a 108 到 71 优势力量拳降落.
战斗结束后, Harrison indicated he would be willing to give Charlo a rematch while Charlo immediately stated his intention to get his belt back. “Jermell – you gave me a shot – I’ll give you a rematch,” Harrison说. “I’m going to get my belt back,” 说夏洛茨维尔. “I still want Jarrett Hurd. I know my brother knows I won that fight. I might have given away a few rounds, but I won that fight.”
在转播的开幕回合, top heavyweight contender多米尼克 “麻烦” BREAZEALE(20-1, 18 科斯) delivered a one-punch knockout victory over卡洛斯·内格龙 (20-2, 16 科斯) in the ninth-round of their heavyweight showdown. “I knew the big shot was coming, it was just a matter of time,” 说Breazeale. “I was setting up that right hand all night. Since the third round I noticed he dropped his left hand when he took a step to the left, and that’s what I got him with.”
Breazeale started out slowly as Negron was able to score early with a lead left hook and an effective body attack. Breazeale stalked his opponent and threw power punches with some success before connecting on a huge right hand before the bell to end the fourth round. “It’s been a long stretch since I’ve been in the ring,” 说Breazeale. “I definitely worked off some ring rust, worked some great combinations and body shots, and finally got the knockout.”

Midway through the ninth round, Breazeale caught Negron in the corner and connected on an overhand right that sent Negron crashing into the ropes.

“I’m next in line for Deontay Wilder and I’m coming for him,” 说Breazeale. “I’ve been waiting for him and I did what I had to do tonight. I’m ready for him now. “I know Wilder is here in the crowd. He came to watch. He knows I’m next. He better be holding on to that belt really tightly, because I’m coming. ‘Trouble’ is already here.”
伦敦 (十二月 22, 2018) –Dillian Whyte delivered a Knockout of the Year candidate with a devastating left hook in the 11日round in a dramatic rematch of one of 2016’s best fights between two top-rated heavyweight contenders Saturday in London in a SHOWTIME BOXING INTERNATIONAL telecast from The O2 Arena. 同赢, Whyte now has the inside track at a world title fight in 2019.视频: https://s.sho.com/2BDKBOP
Whyte (25-1, 18 科斯), who entered the fight holding the No. 1 ranking in the WBC and WBO, used a lethal left hook in the eleventh round to end the rematch, which was just as thrilling and memorable as the 2016 冲突, in dramatic style. The highly competitive, back-and-forth bout was evenly contested from the opening bell. Chisora (29-9, 21 科斯), who was perhaps the more aggressive fighter, was deducted two points, once for a low blow in the eighth round and once for an elbow in the 11日 圆. Despite the two-point deduction, Chisora was ahead on two scorecards, 95-94, at the time of the KO. Anthony Joshua, who called the fight ringside for Sky Sports, went face-to-face with Whyte following the bout.
“That left hook is my money shot. That shot is going to put a lot of people away,” said Whyte, whose only professional loss came to Joshua in 2015. “They can train for it as much as they want. I’ve been in deep waters and I can swim. I was in great shape. I wasn’t tired once, I was just pacing myself and I knew the knockout was going to come. Whoever wants it can get it. I want Joshua next! Let’s do this. Rematch!”
“Let’s forget about what’s happened in the past. We were at British level in our last fight and now we’re at world level,” replied Joshua, who holds the WBA, IBF and WBO heavyweight titles. “It was a good fight back then but let’s see where we’re at right now. If anybody deserves a world title shot, I think it’s Dillian. Deontay Wilder is the target, but if it’s not him, it’s Dillian Whyte.”
