NEW YORK (Februarie 8, 2017) – Unbeaten heavyweight world champion Deontay “Bombardierul bronz” Wilder discussed his upcoming world title defense and more miercuriin New York ahead of his showdown with unbeaten Gerald “The Black Cocoșul” WashingtonSâmbătă, Februarie 25 from Legacy Arena at the BJCC in Birmingham, Alabama.

Here is what Wilder had to say Miercuri:
DEONTAY WILDER
There are a lot of heavyweights who say they want me, but at the end of the day, do they really want this? Everybody knows that Deontay Wilder comes with power.
I fight for the people, that’s what I’m all about. I like to give the fans a great fight at a reasonable price. Each fight I’m in I’m always exciting and well-prepared. I come to give people what they want to see when they see a heavyweight, and that’s a knockout.
Gerald Washington is a big guy I’ve seen fight a few times. I don’t think he’s ready to fight me, but he thinks he is. We’ll find out on February 25. I chose him because he’s always been respectful while always wanting the opportunity. He’s going to come ready to fight.
My preparation stays the same, even with the opponent change. I’ve been in situations where I’ve had to change a lot after an opponent dropped out, but Gerald being as good as he is and similar to Wawrzyk makes it easier. They have different styles but we’ll work on how to break him down.
When I knocked out Artur Szpilka, I thought he was dead for a few seconds. That’s just from natural, Alabama country power.
I’m still training while I’m here in New York. I have Mark Breland here with me helping me get a lot of good work in. I’m staying focused. When February 25 vine, Voi fi gata.
I definitely feel 100 la sută, but we’ll see what it’s going to feel like in the ring when I apply this force to a human skull. When I’m in the gym doing work, Mă simt minunat.
I never really let my hand properly heal until this injury, because the bicep takes longer to heal than the hand. The time gave me an opportunity to really improve my left hand. I feel more polished now than I’ve ever been.
You have to have patience in this sport. The big fights that people want to see will be coming. I’m not scared of anyone and I won’t run for anyone. My team is on the same page and we’re going to keep working together and moving forward.
It’s all about adjusting. Each and every time I go through something inside or outside of the ring, it just makes me better and better.
Chris Arreola’s style was perfect for mine. Even with the injuries that I was suffering, I could still get the job done. I also had to fight through the injuries with Stiverne, because I hurt my hand in the third round of that fight. Being able to have these experiences has made my confidence even higher.

This is a very challenging fight but one I believe I can win. Now that Collazo is one hundred percent healthy, I know he’s going to be at his best. We both are trying to get back on top so the fans can expect a great fight.
On his recent training camp:
It’s been a great training camp. We got a lot of good southpaw sparring and I feel sharp going into this fight. All the preparation has been done and now it’s time to fight. I’ll be at my best come fight night.
On what he learned from his first defeat:
It was a tough loss in my last fight with the late sub Felix Diaz. Although we fought another southpaw, our game plan was for Collazo, who is a totally different style. In this game, I must be prepared for any style that comes my way. I know that now and I’ll be fully prepared for anything that Collazo brings.

On what a win will do for his career:
A win against Collazo will get me right back in the mix of things in the welterweight division. With only one loss on my record, I feel I still have a lot to give to this sport. A victory will open up a path to fight for a world title.

Unbeaten Heavyweight Gerald Washington Steps in to Face Heavyweight World Champion Deontay Wilder in Main Event of Premier Boxing Champions on FOX & FOX Deportes Saturday, Februarie 25 From Legacy Arena in Birmingham, Alabama

Acoperire televizate începe la 8 p.m. ȘI/5 p.m. PT
BIRMINGHAM, AL (Ianuarie 30, 2017) – Undefeated heavyweight world champion Deontay “Bombardierul bronz” Wilder (37-0, 36 KO) will now defend his title against unbeaten contender Gerald “The Black Cocoșul” Washington (18-0-1, 12 KO) în evenimentul principal al Premier box Campionilor pe FOX and FOX Deportes Sâmbătă, Februarie 25, from Legacy Arena at the BJCC in Birmingham, Alabama.
The opponent change comes after Wilder’s original foe, Andrzej Wawrzyk, tested positive for a banned substance.
I’m very happy to get this opportunity to fight for my first world championship,” Washington said. “I know that I’ll be fighting Deontay Wilder in his backyard, but that adds more excitement to the fight for me. I’m looking forward to going to Birmingham and coming away with a victory just like I did in my last fight there.
Washington, a 34-year-old U.S. Navy veteran who also played tight end and defensive end at the University of Southern California, scored a fourth round knockout over former title challenger Ray Austin in his last fight. It came on the undercard of the same show in Birmingham where Wilder suffered a torn right biceps muscle and fractured his right hand against Chris Arreola on July 16, 2016. Wilder won on a 9lea rotundă TKO, but needed several rounds of surgery to repair the damage and has spent the last six months in rehabilitation.
I was disappointed when Wawrzyk tested positive for a banned substance and wasn’t available to fight. I didn’t want to disappoint my loyal fans in Birmingham, who have always supported me,” Wilder a declarat. “I’m glad Gerald Washington stepped up to the challenge and allowed us to go forward with the show. He’s a tall heavyweight (6-foot-6) with a good jab and the kind of test that I need coming back from surgery on my biceps muscle and my right hand. I’m looking forward to putting on a good show for all my fans.
“În acest caz, losing an opponent has resulted in a much better matchup for fight fans,” a declarat Lou Dibella, Președintele Dibella Divertisment. “Gerald Washington, one of the highest rated American heavyweights, is a huge man and a physical specimen. A U.S. Navy veteran, Washington is a tremendous athlete who played football at USC and was on the practice squads of both the Seattle Seahawks and Buffalo Bills. He’s made a successful transition to boxing, and has been working toward his shot at Deontay Wilder and a heavyweight championship. This is the challenge that Deontay wanted and those that come out to the Legacy Arena or tune into Premier Boxing Champions on FOX and FOX Deportes will be the beneficiaries.
Despite the unfortunate circumstances that have allowed Gerald Washington to have this opportunity, I am confident he will be making the most of it,” spuse Tom Brown, Președintele TGB Promoții, Washington’s promoter. “Getting to fight a great champion like Deontay Wilder on national television is every fighter’s dream. Februarie 25 will be a great night for American heavyweights. Gerald is in amazing shape and he’s coming to win.

Washington calls himself “The Black Cocoșul” (The Black Rooster) to honor his African-American father and Mexican-American mother. He turned pro in July 2012, following a brief amateur career. He has risen steadily in the ranks after each fight and is now poised to take on the biggest challenge of his professional career. If he defeats Wilder, he will become the first Mexican-American heavyweight world champion.

BIRMINGHAM, AL (Iulie 17, 2016) – Premier box Campionilor televised action continued following the FOX portion of the telecast as unbeaten rising welterweight contender Jamal James (20-0, 9 KO) învins Wale Omotoso (26-3, 21 KO) prin decizie divizat (97-92, 96-94, 93-96) în cazul în 10-a rundă principal al Premier box Campionilor pe FS1 and FOX Deportes de la Legacy Arena din Birmingham, Alabama.
The second televised bout on FS1 and FOX Deportes featured Mexico’s Sergio Frias(18-6-2, 9 KO) knocking out former world champion Vic Darchinyan (42-9-1, 31 KO) în al doilea tur (2:45) of their junior featherweight bout.
Here is what the fighters had to say following their fights:
JAMAL JAMES
I didn’t want to get into a slugfest with him because I knew I had to get those points back (after getting dropped in the first round). I knew I had to make him pay for those misses. I was able to get points off that in the second half of the fight.
He was throwing some wild shots. I just had to adjust to that. I felt like my defense was good on the inside.
His shots were coming wide, and I was catching those from the inside. The second half of the fight I definitely came on hard and was putting on pressure. We waited so long that I think it might have had a little effect on my energy.
I thought I out boxed him la noapte and deserved the decision. I believe that it was close, so I have no problem with the judges ruling it a split decision, dar am câștigat.
I’d definitely fight him again. I have to be able to beat guys like him, and in better fashion, if I want to be a champion.
Acasă OMOTOSO
Look at me and look at Jamal James. Look at my face and tell me who won. When they announced the decision everyone booed.
I don’t know what’s going on. Maybe it’s because I’m from Africa. I don’t know.
I want to fight again as soon as I can. I’ll fight whoever. Nu-mi pasă cine este. I’ve been asking for a fight for nine months. I stay in the gym. I’ll go in the gym mâine. Boxul este viața mea.
I dropped this kid and I hurt him. I beat him up. I’ll rematch him any time, or fight anyone else. It doesn’t matter to me.
VIC DARCHINYAN
It was the first time that I’ve been knocked out in my 25 years of boxing.
He just caught me. I think it was a counter right hand.
I know I threw a punch and he just caught me. I can’t believe that happened.
SERGIO FRIAS
He’s not a technically sound boxer, so I knew if I just stuck with technique and boxed him that I would catch him.
I wanted to land the right hand, but I wanted to be careful because he has a lot of power.
I wasn’t really looking to land that particular punch, but I did, and I ended it.

BIRMINGHAM, AL (Iulie 16, 2016) – Undefeated heavyweight world champion Deontay “Bombardierul bronz” Wilder (37-0, 36 KO) finished three-time world title challenger Chris “Cosmarul” Arreola (36-5-1, 31 KO) after the eighth round of the main event of Premier box Campionilor (PBC) pe FOX and FOX Deportesfrom Legacy Arena at the BJCC in Birmingham, Alabama.
In front of a hometown crowd of 11,974, Wilder controlled the fight from bell to bell, dropping Arreola in the fourth round, and dominating the battle tested challenger. Despite a broken right hand and a torn bicep muscle, Wilder managed to persevere and secure the stoppage.
Televised action opened with Olympic Gold medalist Felix Diaz Jr. (18-1, 8 KO) defeating Sammy “Sergentul” Vasquez Jr. (21-1, 15 KO) prin decizie unanimă (96-93, 95-94, 95-94) in an exhilarating 10-round welterweight showdown.
The second televised bout featured unbeaten rising star Erickson “Ciocan” Lubin(16-0, 11 KO) a marcat-o decizie unanimă (80-72, 80-72, 80-72) peste Ivan Montero(20-2, 8 KO) in an eight-round junior middleweight bout.
Here is what the fighters had to say after their bouts:
LOU Dibella
Wilder will be taken to a local hospital la noapte, and will be seeing a specialist this week to assess the damage to his right hand and right bicep muscle.
DEONTAY WILDER
What round did you hurt your hand:
It was earlythe third or the fourth round. It was from an (awkward) lovi cu pumnul. I hurt the hand first, and then the bicep.
Was he tougher than you thought:
He was just as tough as I thought he would be. I know he was scared of the right hand for sure. I think I would have gotten him out of there (în al patrulea tur de scrutin) if he didn’t hold the ropes. On that last one he told me in my ear, I had to hold the ropes. I had to hold the ropes.
I got one of the best jabs in the world, because I have super trainers. I got Mark Breland, who showed me all kinds of ways to throw my jab. I got Russ Ambers who shows me techniques. I have Jay my long-time trainer on everything, and of course I have Cuz Hill who gives me great work on the mitts.
Look at my hand, this thing hurts.
What does it say about your toughness that you were able to fight for four rounds with a broken right hand and a torn right bicep:
“Om, it let’s me know I’m a force to be reckoned with. If I have one hand or two hands, you can’t deny that I’m the best in the world. I’m going to still give it to you whether I have one hand or two hands. I won’t stop. As a champion it’s my duty to keep going no matter what I’m going through. Pain ain’t nothing to me. I got a high tolerance on pain. When you’re dealing with fights, it’s not over until it’s over. Whoever fights me they have to be ready. They just can’t come in and think they’re going to bully me or think they’re going to out-tough me or think they’re going to out-punch me, because there ain’t no out-bullying, there ain’t no out-toughing, there ain’t no out-punching, because I’m the heavyweight champion of the world. That means a lot to me.
How satisfying was it to put on such a gutty performance before your home State fans:
It was very satisfying to punish a guy like Chris Arreola. I straight punished him. I didn’t get my knockout like I want, but it was a knockout. I’ll take that on my record. I still advanced to 37-0 cu 36 KOs.
CHRIS Arreola
When he started taunting in the eighth round I knew it was all just part of boxing. No big deal.
The fourth round knockdown was a situation where he just hit me with the perfect shot. Nothing I could do about it.
“(Deontay’s) movement was really tough. He moved perfectly behind his jab. It’s not that it’s even frustrating; it was just I had to catch up to him on runs like that, but it was a fun fight.
He just kept me on the outside, I couldn’t figure him out — pur si simplu. I have to give him all the respect in the world because he was just a much better fighter.
How did he make it out of Round 4?
Let’s be honest, unul. It takes a real fighter to be in the ring with someone like him. He’s a big man. We’re in the heavyweight division, unul, this is the hurt business. You have to know how to deal with adversity. I get punched, I’m going to get back up.
I have to give him credit for using his distance, using his jab and just keeping me at bay.
SAMMY Vasquez
I knew in my heart I lost that fight. I tried my hardest but there were things I should have done that I didn’t do. We can’t look in the past. He’s a hell of fighter. He’s an Olympic gold medalist for a reason. He had a tough decision loss to Lamont Peterson. To me he was an undefeated Olympic gold medalist.
I take nothing away from the man. He’s a hell of a fighter. I’m a hell of a fighter. At the end of the day we put on a great show.
We’ll huddle up and start back at the drawing board. I’ve got to start knocking those names down again.
Ever been in a situation where the scores were added wrong:
I’ve never been in a situation where I had to wait for them to add up the scores again, because obviously I was undefeated. This is my first loss. Losses you learn from. Losses just mean you have room to grow. We’ll take this and come back strong the next time.
You hurt him in the 10lea rotund:
I know I had him hurt as soon as I hit him in the head twice. I saw him wobble and grab ahold of me. He was very slippery. As soon as I tried to push him away my hands would slip away. Hei, it was a hell of a fight. I take nothing away from the man.
FELIX DIAZ
When I first heard it was a split draw, I felt like I was the winner and I got robbed like in my fight against Lamont Peterson.
I definitely feel like the scores should have been wider on the cards, but I understand. The first couple of rounds I was feeling him out, but after those first couple I feel like I won every round.
Since Vasquez is taller than me and has longer reach, my plan of attack was to stay inside and fight him at a close distance.
I took this fight on only 15 days notice, and before this I was preparing for a right handed fighter, so it was a bit of an adjustment. I only had two weeks to make the changes that I needed to. I’m thankful to my team for getting me ready for this fight.
Fighting on a FOX and FOX Deportes primetime card and looking as good as I did makes me very happy. I’m ready for anyone at 140 sau 147 lbs.”
ERICKSON LUBIN
I’m definitely not upset with my performance. The referee was letting him get away with a lot of clinching and head butting. All in and all I’m happy with my performance. I’m still undefeated. I’m going to keep stepping up in these fights and upgrading my competition.
Anything you wanted to do that you didn’t get a chance to do:
Hell, I wanted to knock him out. But the ref wasn’t really calling him for holding or even warning him for holding so that he wouldn’t hold as much and head butt as much. He was tough. I give it to him. El a venit să lupte.
Some guys come in there to survive. That was definitely the type of fighter he was. He was in there to survive. He didn’t want to go home with a knockout loss.
Was this a big step up fight for you:
Every fight was a step up fight for me. I take every fight seriously. There are always things I can learn and improve on. This was definitely one of those fights.
IVAN MONTERO
I was happy to go the distance la noapte, and I agree with the decision. He definitely won, but I thought I put on a good fight. He didn’t do that much damage to me.
I was honored to get this fight and the opportunity to fight on national television. I hope the fans enjoyed my style of fighting. I look forward to getting back in the ring soon.
“Chiar acum, I’m just going to take some time and assess my options, but I’d like the rematch with him some time in the future.

Fighters spoke to media at the BJCC’s Arena Club inside the same venue that will host a stacked night of fights sâmbăta noapte.
Aici este ceea ce luptătorii au avut de spus Joi:
DEONTAY WILDER
I’ve wanted to hit somebody since May. I got teased but now it’s time. And I get to do it at home. There’s no better place to do it.
We’ve had a few guys that we could have chosen, but there were certain guys we didn’t want to give a short notice opportunity. We needed a certain type of fighter for this job.
We need someone who will fight with their heart and take this opportunity and make the most of it. Does he deserve the title shot? No he doesn’t. He knows it. But is Chris Arreola the perfect guy for this fight? Of course he is.
Chris is lucky to get a third chance at a title. There’s a lot of prospects who would love to fight him just to get a chance to fight for this belt. We needed a special person for this situation and I blessed Chris Arreola with the opportunity.
It’s time to fight. He’s ‘The Nightmareand I’m a knockout artist. What makes me special is the way I knock people out. Go look at the people I’ve knocked out and see what I’ve given them.
This is going to be another story for me to write in the history books. I can feel it. O să fie un spectacol mare. Nu rata.
I appreciated everyone who comes out for me when I’m here fighting at home. I’m really excited about this show. You know the words at the end of the night will be ‘And still! Heavyweight champion of the world.'
CHRIS Arreola
“Sunt gata pentru această luptă. I’m more ready than I’ve ever been. Mi-e foame. This isn’t a cakewalk. I respect Deontay, that’s why I trained for you. Come fight time, there’s no respect, it’s time to fight.
One thing no one can question about me is my heart. I’m going to come at him but be smart. My goal is to take home that title and make history.
I want to thank Deontay for giving me this opportunity. I am a sleeping giant. I’m being underestimated. Place your bets on me and make some money.
SAMMY VASQUEZ JR.
Me and Felix Diaz are both coming to bring it. It’s going to be a tough fight for him and myself. People have to watch this fight. To me he’s undefeated and I’m coming in undefeated. We’re putting it all on the line in this fight.
Felix and I have worked together and we’re friends, dar acest lucru este de afaceri. He knows that I’m going to bring it like I do every fight. It’s a great opportunity to be showcased on this card.
If you feel that you’re the best in your weight division, then it doesn’t matter who they put in front of you. My opponent doesn’t matter; we’re going to get the job done. I have to fight quality opponents to be able to step up to the next guy.
Felix Diaz is a great competitor and he’s a very tough fighter. He has a tremendous amount of talent and he never stops coming, just like I do.
“Sunt un luptător presiune. I like to show the crowd how I get down. I’m an undefeated fighter and I will remain that way Sâmbătă noapte. I’m here to take care of business.
I need wins like this to get fights with Danny Garcia and Keith Thurman and I need to do it decisively.
If I can get this win I definitely want Danny Garcia. He’s a Philadelphia guy. I’m from Pittsburgh, it’d be a fun matchup. We’re both marketable guys and I think it’d be a huge fight.
“Vreau doar să lupte mai bune. That’s what I’m here for. Voi lupta nimeni. I want to get a world title.
FELIX DIAZ
I want to thank everyone who is here today. Everything is ready to go. We’ve had a great training camp leading up to this fight.
I know that Sammy is a very good fighter. We’ve been stablemates before, dar acest lucru este de afaceri. I’m going to do what I have to do to be victorious sâmbăta.
I’m ready to get in the ring and do anything that I can sâmbăta to get the victory.
ERICKSON LUBIN
This is a great opportunity on a big card. I’m here to showcase my talent and show why I’m one of the best 154-pound fighters in the world.
This is a stepping stone for me. I know this is a tough Mexican who will be a great opponent. I just took care of business early a few weeks ago in Chicago and I’m looking to do the same thing Sâmbătă. I’m here to steal the show.
I want to thank my team for helping me in training camp and getting me to this moment. It’s ‘Hammer Timesâmbăta.”
JAMAL JAMES
We always stay ready in the gym. It’s always training camp. I’m at a point in my career where I have to be ready at all times. When the call comes, Sunt gata.
We’re working on some things that we wanted to tighten up from the last fight and I can’t wait to show everybody my improvements.
Wale has been in there with some great competitors. We had to make sure everything is tightened up because he’s a strong guy. He has a good knockout ratio so you have to watch out for power punches.
A lot of guys I fight are shorter than me. I’m one of the tallest welterweights in the game. A lot of guys have to fight me the same way, so we know what to expect. Our defense is tight and I’m sitting down on my punches more than ever.
It’s a blessing to be on a card like this. I was very excited when I got the call. Deontay Wilder is a heavyweight champion and it’s a stacked card. It’s a great honor. I’m happy to keep stepping up in competition and in platform.
I’m a class-act in the ring. I’m trying to bring the master skill back to boxing. But I’m ferocious at the same time. You won’t be mad because I always give you a great show.
GERALD WASHINGTON
I’m looking to go out there and take care of my business. We’ve worked hard in training camp and we’re prepared for anything.
I’m going to use my speed and athleticism. The goal is to execute my game plan. Hopefully I can stay busy, land something big and get him out of there.
My grandfather is actually from Alabama so I have roots here. It’s very exciting to be on an undercard for Deontay Wilder defending the heavyweight world title. I have to perform and be exciting so that I one day I can be fighting a great champ like Deontay Wilder.
I’m different than I was before. This is going to be the best me stepping in there Sâmbătă. I’m looking to get him out of there.

The fighters worked out at Round 1 Boxing in Vestavia Hills, Alabama as they prepare for the card headlined by the hometown favorite, Wilder, making the fourth defense of his heavyweight title.
Aici este ceea ce luptătorii au avut de spus Miercuri:
DEONTAY WILDER
When it comes to Deontay Wilder, people look for the knockouts and I deliver. What separates me from other heavyweights is the fashion in which I knock guys out. I don’t just knock you out, I really put you out.
Arreola definitely has a style prone to a knockout. He’s a pressure fighter who will come forward all night. That plays to my style. I love pressure fighters who give me a challenge. They keep me moving and thinking. I love the sweet science and the art to it.
I never look at films of opponents because I want to be surprised and I want to give myself a mental challenge in there. That’s what makes this sport so great.
Birmingham has showed me love from day one. I don’t just represent my city; I represent the state. Everywhere is my home. Birmingham understands entertainment and excitement and that’s what I’m trying to bring to people here.
I’m here to defend my title against a very hungry fighter. It’s a life-changing event for the man who holds the belt at the end of the night.
I never look past anybody. But I can look through them. Before I became a champion, I said I wanted to be an active champion. Just like I was active coming up. This has been my longest time away from the ring, so if all goes well sâmbăta, I want to be back in the next few months.
I have an ability to get out of bed and fight. I can do things that regular fighters can’t do. I don’t do miles of roadwork. I’m blessed with stamina.
This is my gift to give back to my state. Boxing is growing fast here. Me and Jay Deas have always wanted to do this. It warms my heart that we’re living our dreams.
CHRIS Arreola
Deontay is a very tough opponent so I have to come hard this time. This is my third world title shot and I have to make it count. The first time I was too young, the second time I got caught with a shot, but this time I’ll be ready for anything.
Fighting a guy like Wilder, I have to be ready for anything. But he has to be ready too. I’m no slouch. I have fire and he’s another person in my way. I’m here to get it.
There’s no challenge to get ready for a fight. Sunt un boxer. This is what I do and this is what I love to do. Boxing is the most gentlemanly sport there is. You beat each other up then you shake hands like nothing happened. I’ve been grinding every day in the gym for this.
This is a big night for both of us. It’s a great opportunity to be on primetime television. People are going to be watching for free at sports bars and it puts us out there. They’re going to watch two big men on display going for it all.
I took it one day at a time in camp. I had to grind and get better every single day. Mă tem nici un om. I respect the man, but I don’t fear him. Everybody knows that I fight coming forward. I have to be smart and I have to move in angles.
I want to leave a legacy behind. When they talk about Chris Arreola, they’re going to say ‘he did it.I took the long road but here we are now.
I expect him to have a lot of fans and he’s very deserving of that. He’s made things happen in this state and this state is lucky to have a fighter like him. But no one can get in there with him. The fans can’t fight for him. I love the fans, but they’re just there to watch. It’s just me and Wilder in there Sâmbătă.
Beating Bermane Stiverne and defending the title how he has, I definitely respect Deontay. The humility that Deontay has shown has been impressive. He was more brash coming up the rankings and flamboyant. Now he’s come into his own and he understands who he is.
The biggest difference between now and earlier in my career is that I’m comfortable with myself. My main motivation is being a boxer. I’m a boxer first. It’s not about who has the better six-pack.
Weaknesses are something that I have to bring out of Deontay. Someone different shows up every fight. We have a plan but we’ll have to expose him while I’m in the ring. You can see videos all day, but it might not be the same guy in the ring.
SAMMY VASQUEZ JR.
I think this fight goes eight rounds at the most. It’s tough to predict and he’s a shifty guy but I’m confident. I’m going to key in on the body and try to wear him out. I’ll be smart about it, because I have to make a statement in this fight.
My reach and my height will give me an advantage but he’s a slick fighter. All of these things can be advantages, but they can also work against you. I like to box and keep my opponent at range. I can’t let him smother me. We’re very prepared for his best shots.
I think it’s going to be a great fight. He has a great amateur pedigree but I think I’ve made more impact as a pro. We’re equals and it’ll make for an explosive fight.
Diaz is a slick southpaw, just like Luis Collazo. He’s had a couple decent names on his resume. I think Lamont Peterson fell into Diaz’s trap a little bit, which made that a close fight. He’s coming up to my weight, but he brings it and he’s dangerous.
It feels good to be here. It’s been a long training camp leading up to an unbelievable card like this. I’m very grateful for the opportunity to be here. My coach (Charles Leverette) is from Alabama and he represents the state hard, so I’ve been on the ‘Roll Tidebandwagon.
When I was young I remember watching great heavyweight title fights and now to be on the undercard of one is incredible. There are kids out there looking at me and Deontay in the same way. It’s amazing. It’s a blessing that really boosts my career and lets people get to know me better.
FELIX DIAZ
Sammy is a very good opponent of course. He’s undefeated right now, but he won’t be after Sâmbătă.
Moving up to 147 is going to be great for me and allow me to be at my very best. I think I can do big things in this division and Sâmbătă night will be the start.
What you train for and what happens in the ring are two different things. I’m prepared for anything that could happen in the ring.
I have a great team and training camp has gone very well. I’ve been ready to fight for a long time and I can’t wait to get in the ring.
Everyone should come out, because it’s going to be a great fight. I’m very confident in my ability to pull off this victory.

A highly regarded prospect with an exciting style, în vârstă de 20 de ani Lubin burst onto the scene looking to finish opponents early as he cements his status as an elite contender. Fighting out of Orlando, he has already taken down experienced veterans including Orlando Lora, Ayi Bruce, Michael Finney and Norberto Gonzalez. He was sensational in November 2015 when he knocked out Alexis Camacho and in January he headlined his first card and dominated Jose De Jesus Macias in his first 10-round bout. He kept the hot streak going in June when stopped veteran Daniel Sandoval in the third round.
Un profesionist de la 2011, Montero was unbeaten in his first 19 pro fights including victories in 2015 over Michel Rosales and Julio Cesar Avalos. Fighting out of Yucatan, Mexic, he began his 2016 campaign by defeating Roberto Valdez in April. Now he looks to make a mark in his U.S. debuta pe Iulie 16.
A tall welterweight at 6-foot-2, James is undefeated as a pro and beat tough contender Javier Molina in an FS1 and FOX Deportes main event in January. The 27-year-old out of Minneapolis had a big 2015 that began with victories over Michael Balasi and Daniel Sostre and culminated with a hard fought decision over once-beaten Juan Carlos Abreu in September. He will look to keep that momentum going when he faces his most dangerous opponent to date on Iulie 16.
Născut în Nigeria, dar lupta din Oxnard, Omotoso earned a unanimous decision over Gilberto Sanchez Leon in his last bout. He was unbeaten in his first 18 pro bouts while fighting out of Australia. The 31-year-old won his first five bouts stateside and will look for back-to-back victories when he battles James in Birmingham.
The fighter from Armenia who now fights out of Glendale, California, Darchinyan is coming off of stoppage victories over Cris Paulino and Prayoot Yaijam. Having fought against top contenders and former champions such as Abner Mares, Isus Cuellar, Nonito Donaire and Nicholas Walters, Darchinyan looks to work his way back into world title contention after picking up titles in multiple weight classes. He takes on Quevedo out of Los Algodones, Mexico who most recently stopped previously unbeaten Yoandris Salinas in the fifth-round of their 2014 sfârșit.
Un jucător cu două sensuri (scop bine și scop defensiv) de la Universitatea din California de Sud, Washington spent time with the Seattle Seahawks and Buffalo Bills practice squads on his unconventional path that led him to boxing. The 34-year-old also worked in the Navy as a helicopter mechanic before going to USC and did not get his start in professional boxing until 2012. Fighting out of Vallejo, California, he is yet to lose in his latest endeavor and most recently he defeated former title challenger Eddie Chambers in April.
