Hier is wat die vegters te sê gehad het Donderdag from Whiskey Red’s in Marina Del Rey:
VICTOR ORTIZ
I’m an easy-going guy but this is boxing. He might hate me. Ek respekteer hom, but I’m coming to take him down and out.
I know what I’m here for and that’s a victory. As much talking as he’s done, it was a different guy that showed up today.
This is a totally different fight than five years ago. We’re different people. I’m a different guy and so is he.
Saterdag is right around the corner and I’m here. I see loss in his eyes. Ek is gereed. 100 persent.
This is a whole new chapter in my saga. I feel like this is my time once again. I’ve only fought in my prime twice. I did a lot of damage at young age. I feel I’m in my prime now. Die lug is die limiet.
I feel very at peace being back in Ventura to train. We’re going to capture another world title. We went to training camp for that purpose. My mind is set on being one of the greatest.
ANDER Berto
We had an amazing camp. The situation five years ago, there’s no reason to keep speaking on that. I’m a better man today. I put in the work for this one.
I’m looking forward to this. Everybody knows me and knows how I get down. I’ll do my talking in the ring.
Thanks to Victor for taking this fight. All the personal stuff aside, we have to get in the ring and do what we have to do. It’s been five years coming and now we’re here.
The stuff Victor said on the stage and his body language. I believe he knows he is going to be in there with a different type of animal this time.
I think he is already defeated. He sees how focused I am. If he has been hearing anything from camp, he knows I’m ready to go.
He didn’t believe anything he said on the stage. Looking at him face to face, he was trying to tell jokes. I think that he knows that he is going to be in there with a different Andre Berto.
EDWIN RODRIGUEZ
My opponent seems to be really confident and it’s my job Saterdag to take that away. We’ve worked hard and we’re ready.
I’m happy to be here and I’m really excited about this card. I remember watching this fight in Connecticut and I’m thrilled to be involved in part two.
THOMAS WILLIAMS JR.
“Ek is net gereed om te gaan. This fight was scheduled for Maart 12, but we always stayed in the gym. We worked smart, not just hard, but smart.
I’m thankful for the opportunity to fight on this platform. This is going to be a can’t miss fight. Get there and get there early. Don’t blink.
JORGE LARA
I’m proud to be here. We’re ready for a great fight Saterdag nag. I want everyone to see how much hard work I’ve put into this fight.
It means a lot to me to be able to collide with a great champion like Fernando Montiel.
Fernando Montiel
It means a lot to be a part of a dynamic card that his highlighted by this great rematch between Victor Ortiz and Andre Berto.
“Dit gaan 'n groot nag van gevegte wees. I’ve had a lot of ups-and-downs throughout my life but I’ve always worked hard. I’m just excited to get in the ring Saterdag nag.
I am a five-time world champion and I’ve been fighting for 20 years but I know Saterdag night that I’m going to have one of the best nights of my career.
GERALD WASHINGTON
It’s an honor to be here and I’m grateful to have the opportunity to fight someone like Eddie Chambers. He has so much experience and class.
It means a lot to me to come from a little town called Vallejo and to make it all way up here to fighting at StubHub Center.
I’m looking to take advantage Saterdag night and step forward in my career. We’ve been working hard and putting things together
I’m excited for everyone to see the new and improved Gerald Washington.
EDDIE CHAMBERS
I want to thank my team for getting behind me and bringing me out there. I’m thankful to Gerald for taking this fight. Not everyone would take this fight.
This is my chance to get back in the good graces and get back to the top level of this sport.
You should show up early so you can see this one, it’s going to be a great fight.

Here is what the fighters had to say Wednesday from the Wild Card West Boxing Club in Santa Monica:
VICTOR ORTIZ
I put a total of 14 weeks of work into this fight. Nothing easy about that work. Come the 30ste, I’m going to prove why I beat Berto the first time.
“Ek weet wat ek hier is om te doen. I’ve got my fire back. People claim that I don’t have the fire, but you’ll see on April 30.
People don’t know what I go through on the daily. When I’m injured for months at a time, I just have me and my team. We work hard.
I’m going to be back on top in no time. That’s my opinion. I know where I belong.
I’m focusing on Berto. That’s my target and that’s my focus.
He’s done what he’s done. You have to respect that. I’m here and I’m not going anywhere. We’re going toe-to-toe.
ANDER Berto
This is the type of game where if you don’t respect it, it won’t respect you. I’m in a much better place right now. I’ve learned a lot over the years since the first fight. I’m healthy and focused.
“Ek is net gereed om te gaan. Camp was tremendous. We’re really ready to get in there and do it.
There’s a lot that goes into this for me. It was my first loss and I had so many emotions back then, so it’s time to get that monkey off my back.
My plan is to win this in a fashion so there will be no third fight.
My focus is on getting the victory Saterdag nag. I want to look good doing. I’m not thinking about anything after that.
I’ve worked on a lot of different things in camp. We’re going to do whatever it takes to get the win.
You all haven’t ever seen me look like this. I’ve pretty much locked myself in a cage for eight or nine weeks. I’ve put everything aside. I’ve just been grinding.
EDWIN RODRIGUEZ
He’s got some power and some style. He can do a few things. We have to go at it.
I feel great at this weight class. I have the speed and strength to make an impact in this division.
I hadn’t fought a southpaw in a while but we’ve had great sparring with guys like Marcus Browne. I feel very prepared. I’ve never had an issue with southpaws.
I’m excited to be back on the west coast. This is an incredible card. I was at the first fight between Ortiz and Berto and It’s going be another great fight. But I’m coming to steal the show Saterdag nag.
In boxing you’re as good as your last fight. Right now I’m a warrior who took more shots than I should have. I’ve improved quite a bit but I want to improve on any fights. I’m not going down again.
THOMAS WILLIAMS JR.
“Win, lose or draw you know Thomas Williams will bring the fight to you. I’ve been dropped and gotten up. This won’t go the distance, so don’t blink.
I’ve been boxing since I was five-years-old. I have an amateur pedigree and been pro since 2010. I had to take some time off in 2014 but now I’m back and stronger than ever.
The biggest challenge is just getting to the ring. I don’t want to get caught up in the talk of what he does. It’s just going to be me in there. If I go in and do the things that I’m supposed to do, I should come out on top.
You have to keep your punches short against a pressure fighter. A short punch will beat a wild punch any day. I just have to keep my composure and stay relaxed.
I haven’t watched any of his fights. I leave that up to my trainers to create the game plan and we go from there. I have seen him fight before. We were on the same card, so I did have the chance to watch him live.
JORGE LARA
Montiel has been around a long time. He’s been a world champion and he comes to fight.
I’ve studied him and watched him fight before. I feel I know him very well. I have a plan for how I’m going to get to him.
I am very well prepared. I’m not worried about his experience. I’ve trained hard to be ready and I know what I have to do on fight night.
The winners in this fight will be the fans. We are going to put on a great show and give the fans something to remember.
If I can beat him, I can move up the rankings and get closer to a world title shot. That is my goal and this is a big step on my path.
I’m really pumped up about fighting in front of the fans in Southern California. I know they will appreciate my style and it will be a great atmosphere Saterdag.”
Fernando Montiel
Lara is a young talented guy and I’m going to have to be at my best. He’s a dangerous guy and I will have to be ready.
I had to change everything to fight the lefthander after preparing to fight Abner Mares. We had a great camp and we will be ready.
I’m excited to be on a card like this. I think the main event is going to be a really fun fight for the fans. I see both guys going down during the fight but I’m going with Victor to win.

Andre Berto Training Camp Notes & Fotos

This fight has always been on my mind….
I’m going to give everyone the fight they deserve.

OAKLAND, CALIF. (April 25, 2016) – Former two-time world champion Ander “The Beast” Berto has wrapped up training camp and is set to travel to Southern California for his highly anticipated rematch against “Bose” Victor Ortiz wat nuus Premier Boxing Champions op FOX en Fox Sports hierdie Saterdag, April 30 op StubHub Center in Carson, Kalifornië.
Kaartjies vir die lewende gebeurtenis, wat bevorder deur TGB Promotions, word geprys teen $209, $105, $53, en $27, plus toepaslike belastings, fooie en koste van diens, is nou op die rakke en is beskikbaar vir die aankoop aanlyn by AXS.com.
Prior to the start of televised fights, an Official Fan Fest will be held for ticket holders outside of StubHub Center. The events start at 2:30 namiddag. PT and features a Corona Beer Garden, food trucks, music from the band Metalachi and autograph signings with popular fighters including Leo Santa Cruz, Abner Mares, Shawn Porter and more.
Here is what Berto had to say from training camp:
On his improvements since his first fight against Ortiz:
I’ve improved tremendously. Mentally and all the way around the board. There was so much that went into that fight and that camp the first time. I shouldn’t have fought that fight, but being who I am, I wanted to get in there. I was just a young fighter who didn’t take the fight seriously. I overlooked my opponent. Now I’m a much more mature fighter. I’ve pushed myself for this camp.
This fight has always been on my mind. Even when I tried to move on, other people continued to remind me about it. Everyone said I needed to get him back. That’s the fight everyone has wanted to see and that everyone deserves. I’m going to give everyone the fight they deserve.
I believe that coming back from my shoulder surgery that I’ve been more motivated and improving as a fighter. Everyone has seen the improvements. We’re definitely ready for anything he wants to bring. If he’s aggressive we’re ready and everyone knows I can stand there and punch
On this training camp with Virgil Hunter:
“Alles gaan groot. It’s been a long, tough camp. I’m excited and ready to close it all in. We’ve done all the work. We’re in great shape. No stone was left unturned. It’s been a great eight or nine week camp.
On sharing training camp with Amir Khan and Andre Ward and the motivation it provides:
We all feed off of each other. All of us have pretty much been in camp together leading up to and through all of our fights. Even now Andre is there to watch us spar and work. It’s great motivation for all of us to be there. We’re all pushing each other to get better every day.
On how Virgil Hunter has helped him improve as a fighter:
I call Virgil the professional because he’s a teacher. He works you mentally. Each and every day. It’s like being in school. He drills it in your head over and over. He doesn’t let you go through the motions. You have to stay on track mentally to work on all of the things that you’ve been working on. He’s more of a teacher than a trainer.
On what he learned from his fight against Floyd Mayweather:
A lot of people can’t handle the atmosphere and the buildup of that magnitude. I got the chance to really find out how to handle it all. I think I surprised a lot of people around me with how easy I was taking it. I think Floyd was surprised too, he thought I would get shaken like other guys. But I felt like I was supposed to be there. I wasn’t going to be the guy who stands there in shock.
On preparing for Ortiz:
You have to be prepared for whatever he brings to the table. You don’t know how Victor is going to fight and if he’s going to do his extra stuff. Or if he’s going to try to box. Wie weet? Maybe you hit him two or three times and he feels like he doesn’t want to be there. I’m prepared for the Victor of five years ago.
On Ortiz’s claim that he will knock out Berto:
That’s what he said the first time. I’ve made it evident as well that I’ll finish him and finish this chapter. I want it to be over. Still for some reason my name comes up. People continue to cross us together. I just want to finish this chapter and finish in style.
On what fans can expect Saterdag nag:
The fans should expect an exciting fight. They might see the start of round 13 from the first one. It’s going to be extremely exciting. I doubt it’s going the distance. This is the fight the people deserve.

BETHLEHEM, PA. (April 20, 2016) – Ivan Redkach (19-1-1, 15 Uitklophoue) en Luis Cruz (22-4-1, 16 Uitklophoue) fought to a split draw and both scored knockdowns Dinsdag night in an exciting main event on Premier Boxing Champions (PBC)TOE-tot-toon DINSDAE op FS1 en Boxing Champions on FOX Deportes from Sands Bethlehem Events Center in Bethlehem, Pa.
In early action, Cruz began to establish his straight right hand when he knocked Redkach off balance and sent him to the canvas in round two. The Puerto Rican veteran controlled much of the early rounds with that right hand, great movement and overall boxing ability.
Redkach was aggressive throughout, gooi 602 punches over the 10-round bout to Cruz’s 485. Egter, Cruz’s 33 percent connect rate was good enough for him to dominate the first half of the fight.
Die 2008 Ukranian Olympian began to find a landing zone for his big left hand as the fight wore on and late in round eight he landed one cleanly on Cruz that dropped him hard. Redkach was then awarded a controversial knockdown in an explosive ninth round when Cruz fell to the mat on what he said was a slip as a result of a push.
Both men emptied the tank in the final round knowing that one punch could change the outcome of the fight and ended with several flurries. The scores after 10 rounds were razor thin at 94-93 for Redkach, 94-93 Cruz and 94-94, resulting in the split draw.
The co-main event of the evening featured a fast pace brawl that saw unbeaten prospect Immanuel Aleem (16-0, 9 Uitklophoue) earn a hard fought victory over Jonathan Cepeda (17-2, 15 Uitklophoue) in their eight-round middleweight contest.
Aleem and Cepeda traded power punches all fight long, with Cepeda taking the brunt of the punishment as he was out landed 272 te 107. Aleem was superior in all regards as he also landed an impressive 42 persent van sy totale stoot.
Cepeda refused to surrender however and used a powerful right hook to occasionally stun Aleem. The still unbeaten prospect was always able to return any punishment and then some, winning by the score of 79-73 op al drie beoordelaars’ telkaarte.
In the televised opener unbeaten middleweight prospects collided as Junior Castillo (10-0, 9 Uitklophoue) earned a unanimous decision over Kyrone Davis (10-1, 4 Uitklophoue) in a competitive eight-round affair.
The Delaware-native Davis was impressive early with his movement and boxing abilities but the southpaw Castillo was soon able to time his opponent and land left hands to the head and body.
In die vierde ronde, Castillo hurt and dropped Davis in the middle of the round with a left hand after an exchange. Neither man allowed the other to gain too much momentum throughout the remainder of the fight, but it was Castillo’s output advantage of 117-92 that bettered Davisaccuracy advantage of 36 percent to 30 persent.
Castillo won the decision by scores of 78-73, 77-74 en 76-75.
Hier is wat die vegters te sê gehad het Dinsdag:
IVAN REDKACH
I think I won, but it was a good fight.
The knockdown I suffered was me losing my balance. I felt I controlled the fight because I knocked him down twice. I thought I could have stopped him after the first knockdown.
I am not going to argue with the decision but I feel I won the fight.
LUIS CRUZ
I thought the last knockdown was a slip. That was the difference between the draw and my win.
“Ek het hom seergemaak. I had the power. I tried to work round-by-round. I feel that I won six rounds and that the knockdown cost me the win.
I thought I fought well. The draw was better than a loss. Why not a rematch? He is strong and dangerous. He hits hard but I know I am better than him.
IMMANUWEL ALEEM
He was a tough guy. I hit him with some good shots but he kept his ground. I respect that.
I was trying to take my time to get him out. I was being hasty. I was trying to get him every chance I got but he was tough. I am a student of the game and I was taking my time.
My manager George Peterson has a resume of building up Paul Williams and I trust what he has in store for me. He knows what I am capable of doing. We will go after everybody, just like Paul did.
JUNIOR CASTILLO
It was a very good fight. I had some difficulty at first but I felt confident that I would be victorious.
I kept consistent with my game plan and I was able to knock him down. I thought I would be able to finish him but I got too wild.
It feels good to defeat an undefeated prospect and also go the distance. I have never gone the distance before.
I want some kind of title fight. My confidence is much higher right.
KYRONE DAVIS
I felt like it was a good fight. I feel like I won. I thought the crowd swayed the judges. I felt like I won but that’s how it goes sometimes.
“78-73 was too wide. I controlled the first two rounds. He crossed over and hit me with a good shot. He may have won the knockdown round and the last round.
If he gives me a rematch, I would love it. This is just a minor setback. I will improve after this fight and I will move forward.

Ortiz and Berto will square-off in a rematch of their 2011 Fight of the Year in which Ortiz took home a victory as both men hit the canvas throughout the 12-round affair. Nou, Ortiz is preparing for another big victory that could catapult him back to world title contention.
Here is what Ortiz had to say about Berto, training camp and more:
VICTOR ORTIZ
On his first bout against Berto:
I made a lot of mistakes that night but I did enough to get the victory. I always said if I ever got the rematch, I would end him and now I have the chance.
Berto had an off night. I wasn’t at my best either, but I destroyed him regardless. This time we’ll both be at our best.
Berto just talks and talks. When you have to hype yourself up just to think you have a chance, that’s on you. I don’t need to talk myself into thinking I’m going to win. I just know I’m going to win.
We’ve both had some wars since our first fight, but if you can’t back it up, you should just stop.
I had injuries heading into the last fight, but now you have two guys who are 100 persent. That is going to make for an even better fight this time around.
On the rematch with Berto:
Berto comes to fight. He comes for war and wont give up ever, but that makes two of us.
We have been through a lot in the last five years. He hates me. I have no hate in my heart, but I know it’s a sport. I’m not leaving that ring without a victory.
Berto wants to hurt me just as bad as I want to hurt him. I’m ready to go again. This is going to be a Fight of the Year for sure.
Anytime you have to convince yourself that you’re going to beat me. That you actually had a chance the first time, there’s a lot wrong with you.
It’s a sport. It’s not personal. Two guys going back and forth. I want to rip his head off and he wants to rip my head off. Its nothing personal. We can go get a burger after the fight.
He’s a heck of a fighter and a boxer and I am too. He’s had his fair share of wars. He’s had his fair share of injuries and I’ve had mine.
I would hate someone that took my undefeated record. So maybe he hates me, but I don’t hate him. Whatever his mindset is, April 30 is right around the corner and I’m ready.
On working with Coach JosephHossJanik & David Rodela:
Coach Hoss has always been there 100 persent. He has been in my corner about a decade and he knows the game better than a lot of the people I’ve worked with. Every fighter needs to find a ‘zenwith their coach and I have that with Coach Hoss.
I feel like this is the best fit for me. Hoss has been with me through it all, from being dropped, to the hospital and everything. He always says that this is just another way to make you stronger.
I also have coach David Rodela in my corner. We were once upon a time rivals and now we are closest of friends. It is a true ‘Grudge Matchright there. Now he just tortures me in training.
On his acting career:
At this point I have one focus. For the next three or four years I am going to be 100 percent focused on boxing.
I’ve had big celebrities and actors come up to me and say ‘you’re Victor Ortiz, can we take a picture?’ It’s mutual respect, but it’s also kind of crazy. I don’t overstep my boundaries.
I don’t watch the movie I’ve been in. That is too much. Some people like to see themselves on the screen, I’m not one of those people.
On his positive attitude:
I believe that if you’re a bad person, bad things happen. I’m a hard worker. I used to work construction and out in the fields. I never complained. Always smiled.
I wake up in the morning with a smile on my face. People take some things too seriously. Of course there are haters out there, but I don’t pay attention to any of that. I’ve found that a good positive attitude goes a long way.
It doesn’t matter what people say. What matters what I want, what I’m going to do. April 30is going to be the rebirth of me.
On what’s next after April 30:
I’m ready to fight for a world title. Especially after this victory that’s coming. This is for personal satisfaction. Berto has been talking for five years and I’m ready to go.
I took a different route, a different approach. Hoekom? Because I wanted to try other things. Do I have to be here? Moenie. I turned down two movies to be here. Boxing is my first and true love.
I’m ready to conquer the 147 en 154 pound divisions and Andre Berto is standing in my way right now.
