LAS VEGAS (Avril 29, 2017) – Champion poids plume par intérim WBA nouvellement couronné Claudio Marrero (22-1, 16 KOs) choqué auparavant invaincu Carlos Zambrano (26-1, 12 KOs) avec un KO au premier tour dans l'événement principal de Premier Champions de boxe sur FS1 et Fox Deportes, Samedi nuit de Sam's Town Live à Las Vegas.
“Il y a tellement d'émotions qui me traversent la tête en ce moment, que je ne peux toujours pas comprendre ce que ça fait d'être un champion maintenant,” dit Marrero. “Je ne le laisserai pas me distraire, parce que je combattrai celui qui est le meilleur dans ma catégorie de poids. Je savais quel genre de combattant j'allais affronter et je savais ce qu'il fallait faire. j'avais faim”
Le combat s'est terminé brusquement comme Marrero de Saint-Domingue, La République dominicaine a lancé une main gauche droite solide comme un roc qui a envoyé Lima, Le Zambrano du Pérou sur la toile, le rendant incapable de se tenir debout et l'arbitre Vic Drakulich a annulé le combat à 1:30 du seul et unique tour. Marrero prolonge une séquence de sept victoires consécutives.
“Après avoir été inactif pendant un an, bien sûr mon timing était un peu décalé je ne suis pas du tout content de ma performance,” dit Zambrano. “C'est un combat qui était attendu depuis longtemps et je sais que Marrero me lorgne depuis un moment, donc c'est juste malheureux la façon dont les choses se sont terminées.
“Je dois revenir aux États-Unis et trouver des partenaires d'entraînement qui peuvent vraiment m'aider à atteindre le niveau que je veux être,” suite Zambrano. “Pour que mon record soit battu à ce stade, c'est vraiment décevant, je n'ai pas d'autres mots pour le décrire.”
Le co-événement principal de la télédiffusion FS1 et FOX Deportes s'est terminé par un TKO au sixième tour par un poids moyen affamé Nathaniel Gallimore (18-1-1, 15 KOs) de Kingston, Jamaïque à propos Jeison Rosario (12-1, 9 KOs) de Saint-Domingue, République dominicaine. Les deux combattants se sont balancés au premier tour, Rosario l'emportant sur les trois tableaux de bord des juges. Chapelet, qui n'avait jamais dépassé le quatrième tour a commencé à ralentir au cinquième lorsque Gallimore a pris le relais.
“Je suis entré dans le combat confiant, puis à un moment donné, quelque chose s'est passé, mon corps a commencé à ralentir,” dit Rosario. “Je me suis un peu fatigué et j'ai commencé à me battre un peu bâclé. Mon plan est de revenir en arrière et de commencer à travailler régulièrement sur mon jab, c'était ma faiblesse pendant tout le combat.”
Gallimore est sorti du coin au sixième tour déterminé à mettre fin au combat et a réussi. Il a laissé tomber Rosario, mais le dominicain se leva, seulement pour être lâché par une coupe supérieure dure. À la fin, c'est un crochet du gauche qui a envoyé Rosario sur la toile pour la troisième et dernière fois alors que l'arbitre Jay Nady a annulé le combat à 2:15 du sixième tour.
“Il se battait vraiment sale tout le combat, Je pense qu'il savait qu'il avait été blessé dès le début,” dit Gallimore. “Je savais que j'avais beaucoup plus d'expérience alors j'ai juste commencé à le décomposer tour par tour et c'est ce qui m'a valu la victoire. C'était la première fois qu'il faisait autant de tours, donc je pense que ça l'a vraiment atteint au point où il essayait juste de tenir les derniers tours. Je suis venu le finir et c'est ce que j'ai fait.”
Dans l'événement principal de la télédiffusion FS2 et FOX Deportes, perspective super légère Ladarius Miller (13-1, 4 KOs) faire une performance impressionnante avant de s'arrêter Jésus gutierrez (14-2-1, 4 KOs) dans le huitième et dernier tour de leur affrontement.
“je suis super content de ma prestation,” dit Miller. “C'est le meilleur Ladarius Miller que j'ai montré. Je le connaissais en tant que combattant donc je savais ce que je devais faire sur le ring. Je pensais l'avoir eu au premier tour avec l'uppercut, mais il était en bien meilleure forme que je ne le pensais. Il a pris les coups mais à la fin je savais que je finirais en tête avec la victoire. Je suis juste prêt à remonter sur le ring et à regarder vers mon prochain défi.”
Miller a éliminé Gutierrez avec une combinaison de mouvements et de mains gauches principales pour prendre le contrôle de la première partie du combat. Gutierrez a tenté de réduire la distance entre lui et Miller, mais a été incapable de rassembler suffisamment d'attaques pour ralentir son adversaire.
“Ce était un grand combat, Je pense que nous avons donné aux fans ce qu'ils voulaient voir,” dit Gutierrez. “Je n'ai que du respect pour Ladarius, Il est sorti ce soir et a montré de quoi il était fait. J'ai maintenu la pression et j'ai pensé que ce serait suffisant pour l'avoir.”
Plusieurs rafales de va-et-vient ont défini les deux derniers tours du combat avant que Miller ne puisse finalement utiliser une grosse main droite pour frapper Gutierrez et forcer l'arbitre Russell Mora à arrêter le combat à 2:34 au huitième tour.
Le combat d'ouverture sur FS2 et FOX Deportes a vu l'ancien champion du monde Layla McCarter(39-13-5, 10 KOs) dominer et finalement arrêter Szilvia Szabados (15-10, 6 KOs) au septième tour de leur combat des poids welters.
“J'ai vu au début du combat une opportunité, aller pour le corps et c'est ce que j'ai fait,” dit McCarter. “Elle a subi beaucoup de dégâts et était une adversaire coriace. J'ai senti que j'aurais pu le rendre beaucoup plus difficile, J'ai eu un si bon camp d'entraînement que j'aurais aimé pouvoir livrer le Layla que je sais pouvoir apporter.”
Szabados est sorti agressif dès le début, mais le concurrent vétéran McCarter l'a enlevée avec des coups de poing tout au long des premiers tours avant que Szabados ne commence à s'user et à devenir frustré.
“Elle était une grande adversaire pour moi, il y a certainement beaucoup plus de choses sur lesquelles je dois rentrer à la maison et travailler,” dit Szabados. “Global, elle est venue pour gagner et elle l'a montré. J'ai apporté beaucoup de ténacité, mais à la fin elle est arrivée en tête.”
L'arbitre Tony Weeks a déduit un point de Szabados pour des coups à l'arrière de la tête au début du septième tour avant qu'une dernière rafale de McCarter n'oblige l'arbitre à arrêter le combat 56 secondes dans la ronde.

Here is what Barrios had to say from training camp:
On fighting in his first main event on FS1:
“Fighting in the main event on FS1, à la télévision nationale, is going to be an incredible blessing. I know it’ll be a tremendous boost to my career. I want to set the pace from the opening bell, and give the fans a night to remember. These are the type of fights I’ve always dreamed of.”
On his recent training camp with Virgil Hunter in the Bay Area:
“Training with Virgil Hunter has been great. This will be my third fight with him as the lead in my corner. We are working tremendously well as a team and I’m happy where my career is at. We got a lot of good sparring in, with a lot of different looks. I feel my punches are sharp and my timing is on point. I’m going to shine in this fight.”
On his matchup with Nelson Lara…
“I really don’t know much about Nelson Lara, except for the fact that he’s coming off a couple of wins. I’m sure his confidence is high, so I’m expecting a tough fight. Aussi, I know he’s fought at lightweight or super-lightweight for most of his career, so he’s got more experience fighting at this weight. One thing for sure is…I’ll be ready for anything he brings to the ring.”
On moving up two weight classes…
“It’s hard to believe, but I started off my career at super-bantamweight while standing six feet plus. It was getting to make those smaller weights. I was killing myself to make super featherweight, so my team and I felt it was best to skip lightweight, and move to super-lightweight. It’s a big jump, but I feel real strong at this weight. This is where I want to make my run toward a world title, at super lightweight. You’ll see a stronger Mario Barrios.”
On fighting in Mississippi…
“I actually fought out here early in my career but at a different venue. The fans are great and they get loud. A lively crowd is always fun to fight in front of. I plan on giving the Mississippi fans a great night of boxing.”

Voici ce que les combattants avaient à dire à la suite de leur combat:
Josesito LOPEZ
“Ce soir was a result of all the work I put in over the last few months with Robert Garcia.
“I dropped him with a left hook, but he’s a gritty guy. He took some punishment. I was a little careful in there, bien que. It’s been a while since I fought some good rounds like that. There were a few times that I tried to go for the kill, but he’s tough guy and stayed alive.
“It felt good going the distance. Mon corps se sentait bien. Plus que tout, I was alert and my instincts were quick. I had good reflexes and I was sharp. I got hit with very few punches, so I think I did OK ce soir.
“I’m coming along. This is my second fight coming back dans deux ans. It’s a little process. I feel like for my next fight I’ll be that much better. I’m just focused on continuing to get better. I want to step it up for the next fight.
“We have a plan. Robert and I have only been training together for a short while, but the improvement is there and there’s more to come.
“I’m the Riverside Rocky and I want to be in exciting fights that friends and family members will remember for years. I definitely have the grit and the (guts) to get in there with the best of them. I’m a lot smarter inside the ring now.”
SAUL CORRAL
“I felt like my distance was off ce soir. I think I need to spend more time sparring. I didn’t have a lot of sparring partners for this fight and I think that affected me.
“I thought when Lopez landed punches I came back strong, but I didn’t continue with the attacks because he was able to stop me.
“I just need to change some things up in training camp, and then I think I can get back to another big fight.”
Alejandro Luna
“Klimov is a very tough guy. We’ve seen him go the distance with Terrence Crawford. He’s fought the cream of the crop, so it’s an honor to get a win over him. He’s a top-level fighter, so this victory goes to show that we’re ready for any top-five lightweight.
“Our plan ce soir was to work the body. We noticed he has a pretty high guard, so I wanted to go to the body to break him down little by little.
“I know that I hurt him with a couple body shots, but he recovered fast. Later on, I hit him with an overhand right that got to him, but he’s such a tough guy.
“My thing is always to please the crowd. I think this sport is as much about entertainment as it is skill and the fans want to see a show. That’s why I bring the action and do whatever I can to make it exciting for them.
“The last round wasn’t my best. He was outworking me a little, so as soon as the 10-second bell rang I wanted to close the fight out strong. Malheureusement, I opened up and we clashed heads, which caused the cut over my left eye.”
Andreï Klimov
“I got staggered a little bit, but it wasn’t anything that I thought was going to turn my lights out.
“Luna is a very herky jerky fighter. The cut over my left eye came near the end of the fight when we clashed heads.
“Je suis 35 ans. We’re going to go home and take some time to think about what’s next. I’ve been fortunate to do a lot of things in this sport. Now it’s time to talk with my family and decide my future.”
KARLOS Balderas
“We spent a lot of time sparring with great fighters to get ready for this fight. I think all the practice paid off and my speed was my biggest asset ce soir.
“I think their corner stopped the fight because he was taking so many shots, but I’m not sure.
“I’m happy and excited to be a pro. I have so many people here ce soir supporting me coming in from Oklahoma and Texas, so it’s an honor. I felt like a win wasn’t enough. I needed to make a statement.
“I’m going to try to stay busy. I’d like to fight every two months, so I hope to be back in June fighting again.”
THOMAS SMITH
“I really had a bad headache. After the first two punches, I thought I could take it. I know he has a good body shot, but it didn’t really affect me. But after the fourth and fifth good one, I knew it was too much. I didn’t want to go out there in the second round just to get hurt.”
MISAEL RODRIGUEZ
“I honestly thought it was going to be an easier opponent. I haven’t been active since the Olympics eight months ago, but I trained very hard for this fight and got the win ce soir.
“I don’t think he brought anything to the table that was that different than what I’ve seen before, but it was my first pro fight and maybe there were some first fight jitters.
“I’ve never had a bloody nose before, si ce soir was definitely something different for me, but I rolled with the punches.
“It means a lot to me to be a professional fighter now. I know the expectations are higher, and there are a lot of differences between the pros and amateurs, but it felt great in there.”
EIMANTAS STANIONIS
“J'ai eu un super camp, I have fantastic coaches and I work hard every day in the gym. Ce soir, it all paid off.
“I saw that I was able to land some good shots, and I could tell I was getting to him a little bit, so I started throwing more and more to try and stop him.
“This has been a dream of mine forever. I grew up watching legends like Mike Tyson and Manny Pacquiao, and now I’m a professional fighter just like them.
“I’m ready to continue proving myself. I’ll fight anyone they put in front of me.”
LINDOLFO DELGADO
“My team and I had a game plan and I followed it to the letter.
“The punch that I dropped (Silva) with was a left uppercut. Thankfully I was able to land it and I knew I had him hurt.
“Competing in Rio de Janeiro in the Olympics was an incredible experience and a good learning lesson for me, but now I’ve officially made my transition into the pros. It felt different in the ring ce soir, but I was very prepared.
“I’m just going to continue training hard to build on this performance and little by little we’re going to reach our goals.”
MONEY POWELL IV
“I did what I wanted to do ce soir. I dominated early. (Templeton) is a tough, old dude, and I want to thank him for taking this fight and allowing me to showcase my skills.
“I was just trying to start the fight out by controlling my distance and using my jab, but I could see he didn’t have much to offer, so I stopped using my jab so much. Once I realized I could land shots on him I went with my power punches because anything I threw was going to get him.
“Becoming a professional fighter is a dream come true for me. I always wanted to be a fighter ever since I was a little kid. Thankfully Richard Schaefer signed me and gave me a chance to realize my dream.
“This is only the beginning for me. I’m trying to be the best fighter that’s ever lived.”
