Lisa Milner

Dankjewel, iedereen, om vandaag bij ons te komen. We have a very exciting call. All four of the fighters participating on the televised portion of deze zaterdag Premier Boxing Champions on NBC telecast will be with us. We are going to start with the heavyweights, and before we head to those fighters, I’m going to turn it over to Tom Brown, head of TGB Promotions to tell you a little more about the event and introduce our first set of fighters.

 

Tom Brown

Goed, thank you and thank you very much to the media for joining us on this call. TGB Promotions is very happy working again with PBC on this excellent card to be telecast on NBC deze zaterdag afternoon from the famed StubHub Center in Carson. The doors openop zaterdag bij 11:00 a.m. met de eerste bel om 11:15 a.m. We go on live TV starting at12:00 p.m. PT. It’s a huge sports day for NBC. They’re also telecasting the French Open, the Belmont Stakes, and game two of the Stanley Cup Playoffs.

 

The main event is former world champion, Robert Guerrero (32-3-1 18 KO) uit Gilroy, Californië. Robert’s no stranger to the southern California boxing fans, having posted two huge wins in recent years: the sensational 12-round decision over Andre Berto in November 2012 down in Ontario, and his epic fight-of-the-year win over Yoshihiro Kamegai on June 21, 2014 at the StubHub Center.

 

Aaron Martinez, West Covina, Californië heeft een record van (19-3-1, 4 KO). He made his bones on the southern California boxing circuit, and knows how valuable this opportunity to face Guerrero is on such a big platform. Martinez never takes a backward step, never tires, and that’s his primary weapon: incredible stamina. With the styles of Guerrero-Martinez, this main event has all the makings of another action-packed StubHub Center war to add to the venue’s history.

 

In the televised co-main, the opening fight, we’ve got two outstanding, undefeated young heavyweight prospects: U.S. Olympian Dominic Breazeale (14-0, 13 KO). He competed in the 2012 London games, and Yasmany Consuegra (17-0, 14 KO) outstanding Cuban amateur with a perfect pro record.

 

Opnieuw, de deuren gaan open om 11:00 a.m. Tickets beginnen bij $25 and we’re looking forward to seeing the great boxing fans of southern California attend this great event.

 

L. Milner

We’re going to do the heavyweights now. Dominic, could you make an opening statement before we turn it over to the media?

Dominic Breazeale

This is Dominic Breazeale. Goedemiddag, dames en heren. I’m excited to be part of this fantastic card this Saturday, Juni 6th. Can’t wait to get in the ring and show off my skills.

 

L. Milner

Groot. Dankjewel. And Luis DeCubas Jr. is on the line to translate for Yasmany. Luis, could you ask him to make just a quick opening statement and then translate that for us?

 

Consuegra Yasmany

I want to thank everybody on the call. I want to thank NBC, the PBC, Al Haymon for this opportunity and all the people involved. I look forward to a great fight. Op Zaterdag, I want to show everyone who I am.

Q

He, Dominic, it seems to me it’s safe to say that this is going to be your toughest opponent to date. Would you agree with that, and if so, how excited are you to get this opportunity to move up in competition and show what you’ve been able to learn?

 

D. Breazeale

Definitely toughest competition to date thus far. Zeer Zeker, Yasmany is 17-0, 14 KO. One of those guys that steps in the ring with a ton of confidence. We’re both undefeated fighters and I was extremely excited when I got the call. Thanks to Al and the team. Thanks to NBC, we’ll be able to perform in front of the whole world, nationwide, and I couldn’t ask for more. It’s a great setting, a great way to have a stepping-stone to the next level. I want to be considered the top heavyweight and I guess you’ve got to fight top guys to get there.

 

Q

What do you know about Consuegra?

 

D. Breazeale

I know he’s got a great amateur record. I know he did real well in Cuba, the Cuba National team. He had some great fights here in the States. He fought a lot in Florida.I know he’s got a boxing style. I know he’s going to come out tough. Cuban fighters always do.

 

Q

Dominic, you’ve had a lot of knockouts in your early career in the pros, but this is going to be your biggest fight yet with another undefeated fighter. Can you talk about your transition from the amateur style, which obviously you had to do in the Olympics, to the professional style?

 

D. Breazeale:

Like you said, it’s going to be a big fight with a guy that’s undefeated. I’m sure he’s coming in looking to knock me out. I’m coming in to knock him out, zeker. Maar, amateur transition into the pros, I would say was a little bit easier for myself than it was for most amateurs. The amateurs, a lot of my wins came by way of knockouts, so I’ve been knocking guys out since day one.

 

It’s one of those things that I transitioned from putting punches in bunches to putting punches in bunches with power. I’m throwing a lot more punches now. I’m putting a lot more punches together with power. Every punch I throw has got devastating power. I not only punch with the right hand, but I can punch with the left. So long as I make contact, somebody’s going down for sure.

 

Q

Can you talk about the experience factor? You both fought a number of guys who have a lot of fights under their belt. Zijn laatste gevecht, he defeated Taurus Sykes, who’s been around for a long time, a guy with a winning record. Tell us where you think you’re at. Because eventually, everybody wants to become a world champion, but what level do you think you’re at and how does that compare to Yasmany?

D. Breazeale

I think I’m right up there, als niet, definitely above him. I’ve fought some very experienced guys and guys that have been former Olympians, ook. Guys like Matt Galer, who have been in heavyweight ranks and considered top contenders at one point. Me and Matt put on a great fight.

 

My last fight with Victor Bisbal, that was March 7th van dit jaar. He’s a Puerto Rican Olympian. He came out with a great amateur background, very good professional background. When I finally beat him he had fought some experienced guys as well, so I definitely have the experience there. Not only as an amateur, but definitely as a pro, ook.

Q

And a similar question for Yasmany. Naar mij, it looks like this is going to be your biggest fight as a pro. Where do you think you are as a professional at this point? Where do you think you rank overall in the professional ranks?

 

Y. Consuegra

It’s definitely my toughest fight. Breazeale’s a real good fighter out of the pros, but I’ve also had a great amateur background. I fought the best of the best, blijkbaar. The Cuban heavyweight program is much more difficult than the American heavyweight program, and he was an Olympian, but I won a lot of world amateur tournaments. I look forward to just getting in the ring with Breazeale and showing what I’ve got, because I think I could beat Breazeale, and I think I’m ready for Breazeale. The top guys in the division, I’m going to show them.

 

Q

Yasmany, how influenced are you by some of the great Cuban fighters and heavyweights of the past year: Teofilo Stevenson, Felix Savon, en vele anderen? How much of a role have they played in influencing your style?

 

Y. Consuegra

Duidelijk, Cuba has a great history of Cuban amateur heavyweights. I like to put my style more toward Savon, who is a power puncher, as looking for the knockout at all times. And Stevenson’s a great fighter, but he’s more of a boxer, so was Roberto Balado, but that’s definitely a great point.

Q

How does it feel to be fighting on NBC in front of such a big network audience, especially on a day when you’re going to be right in between French Open final and Stanley Cup game. Dominic, could you answer that first?

 

D. Breazeale

I am definitely excited. I’ve got to thank NBC for giving me the opportunity to fight on this card. It’s a wonderful date. Can’t ask for anything better: southern California, middag. Sun’s going to be out. The weather is going to be great. Great venue at the StubHub Center there. It’s definitely exciting. Whenever I get a chance to perform in front of a hometown crowd, family and friends, and things like that, it brings out the best in me, so I’m definitely looking forward to it and, zoals ik al zei, I’ve got to thank NBC, Al HAYMON, Goossen Promotions for putting this all together. My team, all of you guys, I definitely, truly appreciate it.

 

Q

And Louis, could you ask Yasmany the same question?

 

Y. Consuegra

Ja, it’s definitely the biggest fight of my life, the biggest fight of my career. Op dit moment, I’d also like to thank Dominic Breazeale for taking this type of risk. Not too many guys are willing to take these risks to fight an undefeated heavyweight and fight the best. Zo, it’s a big day for both of us, and come Zaterdag, I’m going to show everybody that I’m one of the top guys in the division.

 

L. Milner

Oke, groot. Dankjewel, beide, so much. We will see you this week for a great event. We have the main event on the line now, so I’m going to turn it back over to Tom Brown to introduce Robert Guerrero and Aaron Martinez. Tom, wegnemen.
T. Bruin

Oke, groot. Dankjewel. Eerste, I’d like to introduce former world champion, Robert “The Ghost” Krijger, opnieuw, met een record van 32-3-1 en 18 KO, making a quick return to the PBC on NBC.

 

Robert Guerrero

I just want to thank everybody for being on and I’m ready to go.

 

T. Bruin

Oke, we’ve got Aron Martinez here also, met een record van 19-3-1, and he understands how valuable this opportunity is to face Guerrero on such a big platform.

Aron Martinez

Ja, natuurlijk, Ik ben hier. Het is een geweldige kans voor mij; I’m ready for battle. We’re at weight and everything went pretty good at this camp, and what can I say, één? Just excited to fight Zaterdag.

Q

Robert, you’re a guy that has fought a lot of big name fighters over a really nice career, an illustrious career. Does it become a little more difficult to get up for a fighter like Aron Martinez who is, kind of unknown, at least as compared to the other guys that you’ve fought?

 

R. Krijger

Niet Doen, not at all. Coming off the last fight with a loss at the short end of the stick, it drives you to be hungry. Zo, that’s why I wanted to get right back into the ring, stay active. That’s one of the biggest problems with being inactive and not having enough action throughout the year. The year layoffs, a nine-, eight-month layoff, it really kills you, especially at that championship elite level. It’s hard to come back and be 100 percent sharp, so the plan is to just stay sharp all year and get back on it.

 

Q

Wat weet je over hem? Do you watch any tapes of your opponents or anything like that?

 

R. Krijger

Ja, I’ve watched some tape on him. I watched a few of his fights that I found on YouTube and he’s a crafty little guy. He’s in there and he can fight on the inside. He’s got some good counter shots and he mixes it up. Zo, you’ve just got to be ready for everything all around, because you never know what’s going to come your way, especially when this is such a big opportunity for him, fighting on NBC. You know he’s going to come 100 percent ready and that seems to happen all the time when I fight somebody. They come 10 percent better than they were in their last couple of fights, so it’s about being prepared and being ready for whatever comes.

 

Q

Is there any concern about coming back to the ring so soon after a brutal fight like you just had three months ago?

 

R. Krijger

Oh, niet doen, not at all. Naar mij, the fight wasn’t even that brutal. It may have been brutal for Thurman, but I was just getting started toward the end. It actually feels good to get right back in. I got right back into the gym three weeks after that and stayed on it. Zo, after I left that ring, I still felt good. My body felt good. I just had that cut, got that taken care of, but other than that, Ik voel me geweldig. That’s why I’m jumping right back in the ring so quick.

 

Q

I know you’re a well-known fighter throughout your career, but was there any difference after fighting on that show. That was the most viewed fight in quite a long time, being that it was on free TV on a primetime Zaterdag nacht. Zo, I just want to know if anything changed on your end, like more notoriety.

 

R. Krijger

Zeer Zeker. When you have a 96-year-old woman come up to you in the parking lot and say, “Man, what a great fight; that reminds me of the olden days of boxing,” it’s nice to see that. And you see all the fans coming around and just the average person that’s at the grocery store recognizing you, it’s huge. It’s not just huge for my career, but it’s huge for boxing.

 

Q

Did that factor into your wanting to come back so soon? I know you said you want to stay sharp, maar, blijkbaar, staying in the public eye helps as well.

 

Robert Guerrero: Oh, definitief. Out of sight, out of mind. So you want to stay active, you want to stay busy; you want to stay sharp. You want to stay in the public eye to make that big run before time passes.

 

Q

Aron, I just have one question for you. You’ve been out of the ring for over a year since your fight with Josesito. Was there any reason for that delay? Could you just not get fights or did you just want to take the time off to clear your head?
Een. Martinez

It was just with my promoter, little here and there, they were not giving me the right fights. Anybody that knows me, I stayed in the gym, because that’s what makes it easy for me, making weight. I never have trouble making weight and that goes to show that I stay active. I stay active in the gym and that’s what it is.

 

Q

My question is for Robert Guerrero. I was a little disappointed to see that it took you quite a while to get into the fight with Keith Thurman. Do you feel like that’s going to be something you’re going to change for this fight with Aron, is taking off right off the bat, eerste ronde?

 

R. Krijger

Ja, it goes back to being active in the ring. Everybody says, goed, Ik voel me geweldig, there’s no ring rust, and this and that, but you truly don’t know until you get into that ring. Vervolgens, those long layoffs really kill me. You develop bad habits. You lay back a little bit too much, and you end up getting started a little bit late like I did in the Thurman fight. But when I did get started, there was no stopping me.

 

Zo, that’s why I want to stay active and stay in the ring. Zoals ik eerder zei, it’s being inactive, not being in the ring fighting. You develop habits where you do start off slowly and I felt like after the fight, when I looked back on it, it felt like I was starting off like I was sparring and just working into it, warming up, and then getting started. Glad to get that fight out of the way and shake off that ring rust, and it’s time to make that push.

 

Q

First question for Robert. Can you talk about getting up for this fight, because you fought such top level opponents and championship fights, Thurman and Mayweather and higher profile fights, and I think in this fight, you’re going to come in as a favorite. Can you talk about making sure that you don’t overlook Aron Martinez and staying sharp and getting up mentally.

 

R. Krijger

You never want to overlook anybody. Kan me niet schelen wie het is. You’ve got two hands, you can throw a punch. Alles kan gebeuren in de ring. Zo, you never want to overlook anybody. I found that out earlier in my career with a loss against Gamaliel Diaz. I was overlooking him, thought I was going to take him out and he ended up out-boxing me. He beat me by one point.

 

Zo, it’s one of those things where you live and learn. You learn your lesson throughout the years and at this level of boxing and competition, you’ve got to just be able to get up and do your job and be prepared for everything. Zo, it’s not a problem. It’s like second nature to me. I wake up every day. I run. I do my gym work. If I don’t do it, it feels like I’m cheating, because I’ve been doing it since I was a kid. Zo, it’s just being well-prepared and I’m always well-prepared for every fight, as you’ve seen through my previous fights. I come to fight no matter what.

 

Q

What do you think your advantages are over him coming into this fight?
R. Krijger

Maybe the arm reach, the hand speed, the height. It’s a matter of not just having the advantages, but putting them to work and using them, and sticking to your game plan and being well prepared and being able to execute. Zo, it’s time to react when you get in that ring and what you’re going to do with everything to make it happen.

 

Q

Aron, I think Robert’s going to be the one coming in as the favorite in this fight, but I just noticed on a lot of the PBC cards, there have been a lot of upsets and unexpected outcomes coming in. Tell us why you’re going in expecting to win and what the effect is being on the PBC card on NBC. Does that add something special to this?
Een. Martinez

Yes of course. It’s on national TV at StubHub Center, this is where I grew up. It’s my home base. I’ve got 23 gevechten. Out of these 23 gevechten, I’ve never been the favorite; I’ve always been the underdog. I’m not even supposed to be at this stage. That’s what I’m looking forward to. I’ve never been the favorite in any of my fights, so I come out for every fight. I know Rob, he’s an excellent champion; he’s been in with the best. He knows I train hard for this fight because I really want it and it and I’m going to lay it all on the line. This is what I’m talking about. I’m on to show everybody.

 

Q

You’re coming off a little over a year layoff as you explained earlier, and he’s coming off just a three-month layoff after a 12-round fight. Do you think that’s going to factor into this fight, especially if it goes the distance?

 

Een. Martinez

Niet Doen. It’s like what Robert said. You don’t really know until you get in the ring. We could say a bunch of things now, but you never know until you get in the ring and you actually feel it, because once you’re in the ring, it’s a whole different story, how it’s going to be. We train really, really hard for this fight, en we zijn klaar. It’s whatever I’ve got to do, I’ve got to do. We fight inside we box, wat dan ook. We’re ready for whatever comes our way.
Q

Aron obviously, I know you’re up for this fight, and Robert’s already expressed that he’s trained for this fight and he’s expecting the very best from you, it’s been asked twice on this call if Robert is overlooking you. Do you find that disrespectful that nobody is giving you a shot in this fight? Or do you just use it as extra motivation?

 

Een. Martinez

Niet Doen. I don’t find it that way. It’s what it is. Robert has been up there with the best. And I don’t find it disrespectful; it’s just what it is, and it makes me train harder and just to make a point that who I am and they’re going to see Aron Martinez in there op zaterdag and they’re going to see who I am.

 

L. Milner

Oke, that was our last question. Robert, do you want to make a closing comment?

 

R. Krijger

Ja. I just want to thank everybody. Thank Al Haymon and thank my team and thank everybody who’s been putting in the work to get this together, and I’m coming to fightZaterdag nacht. Ik ben klaar om te gaan. I’m excited and going on right before the Belmont Stakes and it’s a big event leading into another big event. Zo, I’m excited and I just can’t wait to fight.

 

The thing is staying active all year and doing my job and giving the fans what they love to see and giving them a great fight. Zo, thank all the fans and thank everybody that’s on the conference call. I really appreciate it and God bless everybody.

 

L. Milner

Oke, dank. Aaron, do you want to make a closing comment?

 

Een. Martinez

Ja, I want to thank NBC, PBC and all. Goossen for giving me this chance to show what I’ve got op zaterdag, and I thank Robert, and just give a good show to everybody op zaterdag, and I’m ready to push off and I’m ready to go. Dank, iedereen.
Lisa Milner: Dankjewel. Fight week events start morgen bij 11:00 a.m. at the Wild Card West Boxing Gym with a media workout and I hope to see everybody there. Heel erg bedankt. Thanks to the fighters. Dank, Tom Brown, and thanks to the media.

DOMINIC “PROBLEMEN” BREAZEALE OPENS UP PBC ON NBC LIVE TELECAST & FACES UNDEFEATED CUBAN HEAVYWEIGHT YASMANY CONSUEGRA

Laat een reactie achter

Hoogland, Californië (Juni 3, 2015) – Top U.S. zwaargewicht vooruitzicht Dominic “Moeite” Breazeale (14-0, 13 KO's) makes his return to the ring deze zaterdag middag, June 6th at the StubHub Center in Carson, Californië. Breazeale, takes another step up in competition and faces Cuban heavyweight Yasmany Consuegra (17-0, 14 KO's) in a battle of undefeated heavyweights. The televised bout will support the Robert Guerrero-Arron Martinez main-event and will open up the Premier Boxing Champions (PBC) live telecast on NBC.

De 2012 U.S. Olympian is coming off of a solid win against heavyweight veteran Victor Bisbal this past March during the inaugural PBC on NBC series. Breazeale showed true heart and resilience after experiencing the first knockdown of his career early in the first round of the bout. Breazeale recovered quickly and dominated Bisbal until the bout was stopped in the fourth round, resulting in Breazeale’s 14th win and 13th by knockout.

Immediately following the bout with Bisbal, Breazeale asked his advisor Al Haymon for another tough-quality opponent and Breazeale was granted his request.

“My last bout with Bisbal was by far the toughest opponent I have ever shared the ring with. He caught me with a good shot and I recovered quickly. I shook it off and ended up stopping him a couple of rounds later. Na de bout, I wasn’t happy that I was knocked down although many people told me that I showed resilience and that is what champions are made of. Nog, I wanted another tough opponent and Al Haymon gave me the opportunity,” said Breazeale.

In addition to the quality opponent, Breazeale now has the chance to make an impression on many avid and casual boxing fans who will be watching the bout live on NBC Zaterdag middag, an opportunity Breazeale welcomes and is thankful for.

“Dit is een droom die uitkomt voor mij. Some of my previous bouts have been televised in the past, but not on a prime-time network where millions of people will be tuning in and see an American heavyweight like me. The heavyweight division is the most popular division in boxing because of its excitement and this is a bout between two undefeated heavyweights.” 

If this bout turns out as well as Breazeale has worked so hard for, he is looking to transition from a top prospect to a contender. Since turning professional two and a half years ago, Breazeale has been on the fast track to the world heavyweight title and has been learning from every training camp and fight thereafter under the tutelage of trainer John Bray.

“I know I still have some room to
Foto c / o Team Breazeale

grow. I’ve been learning in the gym everyday and with every bout that I have had. in slechts 14 professional bouts so far, I feel that I have fought tougher opposition at this particular point of my career than the current American world heavyweight champion did in his first fourteen bouts. With the platform I have been provided deze zaterdag, I intend to make the best of it and will definitely give the fans watching at home an entertaining fight and hope to make a name for myself in the heavyweight division.” 

Tickets voor de live-evenement, die wordt bevorderd door TGB Promotions, zijn geprijsd op $200, $150, $100, $50 en $25, plus van toepassing zijnde belastingen, vergoedingen en servicekosten, zijn nu te koop en zijn beschikbaar voor aankoop online op AXS.com.

Lara Takes On Delvin Rodriguez On Vrijdag, Juni 12 Installment Of

Premier Boxing Champions On Spike Live From UIC Pavilion In Chicago

Klik HIER For Photos From Francisco Perez/Team Lara

HOUSTON (Juni 2, 2015) – Super weltergewicht wereldkampioen Erislandy “The American Dream” Lara (20-2-2, 12 KO) is wrapping up his final days of training camp in anticipation of his Premier Boxing Champions on Spike debut taking place at UIC Pavilion in Chicago on Vrijdag, Juni 12.

 

Deze editie van PBC op Spike begint bij 9 p.m. EN/PT. Deuren op UIC Pavilion open 5 p.m. CT met het eerste gevecht set voor 5:30 p.m. CT.

 

Before escaping communist Cuba, where Lara had to swim in dangerous waters to reach freedom, he was a decorated international amateur champion, winning numerous titles against some of today’s champions. He has followed his dream of becoming a world champion and now looks to build on his legacy.

 

Having fought some of the top names in the super welterweight division, Lara is looking to keep the momentum roaring with a dominant performance against the always tough Delvin Rodriguez. Known as one of the most skillful fighters in boxing, Lara spoke on his recent training camp, his opponent and fighting on PBC:

 

Op trainingskamp…

“My trainer Ronnie Shields and I have been sharpening up what I do best. It’s been a long hard camp and I’m going into this fight with a 100 percent healthy body.

 

On fighting on PBC on Spike…

“PBC on Spike is a great series that shows a lot of good fights. A lot of young fight fans are tuning into Spike on a regular basis. I want to gain new fans with a great performance.

 

On sparring with top level partners…

“I’ve been sparring with the (Jermell and Jermall) Charlo brothers and a few other top contenders. The work I’m getting is unbelievable. I feel my timing is right on point. I’m getting pushed by some of the best fighters in the world.

 

On being a Cuban-American boxer:

“Voor mij, defecting to the United States was a shot at achieving my dream – the American dream – of being a world champion. I love my former country and look forward to the day when the world can see the talent in Cuba and allow my fellow boxers the chance to truly pursue their dream. This is my dream, and it’s come true.

 

On fighting in Chicago…

“I know there’s a lot of great boxing fans in Chicago. I’m coming to put on a great show for everyone and I’m going to look electrifying on fight night.

 

On fighting Delvin Rodriguez…

“Since this fight is for my world title, I know Delvin Rodriguez is hungry for victory. He’s my main focus and all my concentration is on the defeating him.”

CUBAN SENSATION ERISLANDY LARA TO FACE DELVIN RODRIGUEZ AS PREMIER BOXING CHAMPIONS ON SPIKE RETURNS TO UIC PAVILION IN CHICAGO ON FRIDAY, Juni 12

Laat een reactie achter

KNOCKOUT ARTIST ARTUR BETERBIEV TO FACE DOUDOU NGUMBU

Cuban boxing sensation Erislandy “The American Dream” Lara (20-2-2, 12 KO)returns to the ring on Friday, Juni 12 to face veteran Delvin Rodriguez (28-7-4, 16 KO) as Premier Boxing Champions heads back to Spike.

 

Daarnaast, Russian knockout artist Artur Beterbiev (8-0, 8 KO) is set to square off against the ring-savvy Doudou Ngumbu (34-6, 13 KO) of Haute-Garonne, Frankrijk.

 

Deze editie van PBC op Spike begint bij 9 p.m. EN. Deuren op UIC Pavilion open 5 p.m. CT with the first fight set for 5:30 p.m. CT.

 

“I’m very excited to be fighting on Spike TV on June 12th in Chicago.” said Erislandy “The American Dream” Lara. “Delvin Rodriguez is a tough veteran fighter who I respect. He has a lot of heart and determination. But once the bell rings I’m looking for the knockout!”

 

“Op juni 12, I am going to change everyone’s mind about me and show that I can beat Lara,” Said Rodriguez.

 

Tickets voor de live-evenement, die wordt bevorderd door Warriors Boksen in samenwerking met Group Yvon Michel (SPORTSCHOOL), zijn geprijsd op $151, $101, $51, en $31, niet met inbegrip van de toepasselijke service-, eend are on sale now. To charge by phone with a major credit card, bel Ticketmaster op (800) 745-3000 of UIC Pavilion Box Office op (312) 413-5740. Tickets zijn ook verkrijgbaar bij www.ticketmaster.com of door een bezoek aan de UIC Pavilion Box Office (Thursday or Friday 9:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m.).

 

De 32-jarige Lara is a slick boxer with the ability to deliver punishment while taking very little of it in return. Lara has notched victories over Alfredo Angulo, Austin Trout en Freddy Hernandez zijn hele carrière. Als amateur, Lara won vele titels, waaronder een nationaal kampioenschap in weltergewicht en ook deel aan de 2007 Pan-Am spellen. De vechter oorspronkelijk uit Guantanamo, Cuba but fighting out of Houston most recently defeated former world champion Ishe Smith on his way to his 20th professional victory.

 

Already deep into an accomplished career, the 35-year-old Rodriguez looks to give Lara a stiff test and entertain the crowd at UIC Pavilion on June 12. Having battled the likes of Miguel Cotto and Austin Trout, Rodriguez has also picked up victories over Mike Arnaoutis, Pawel Wolak and Shamone Alvarez throughout his accomplished career. Born in Santiago de le Caballeros, Dominican Republic but fighting out of Danbury, Connecticut, Rodriguez will look to improve on his last outing, a draw against Joachim Alcine in May 2014.

 

Having floored every opponent he’s faced professionally, the now 30-year-old former amateur standout Beterbiev will be seeking to keep his knockout streak alive in Chicago. Having notched impressive wins over Tavoris Cloud in 2014 and Gabriel Campillo earlier this year, the heavy-fisted Russian knows he’ll be tested with an experienced opponent on June 12.

 

Following a hard-fought loss to Andrzej Fonfara in November 2014, Frankrijk's Ngumburebounded nicely with a knockout win in January of this year. The battle-tested 33-year-old veteran will look to use his wealth of professional experience at UIC Pavilion in order to emerge victorious.

BROOKLYN (Mei 30, 2015) – Premier Boxing Champions (PBC) op Aarkeerde terug naar het Barclays Center in Brooklyn op vrijdag nacht met weer een explosieve nacht vol aanvallen voor vechtfans. In het main event, Emir “Koning” Khan (31-3, 19 KO) scoorde een sluwe en hard bevochten unanieme beslissing Chris Algieri (20-2, 8 KO) en Javier Fortuna (28-0-1, 20 KO) won een unaniem besluitoverwinning voor het publiek Bryan Vasquez (34-2, 18 KO) in de op televisie uitgezonden opener.

 

Hieronder vindt u opmerkingen van de op televisie uitgezonden vechters na hun optredens vanavond:

 

AMIR KHAN

 

“Ik dacht dat ik van binnen goed werkte. Ik heb nog nooit zo veel werk in de zak gedaan en ik ben van plan daar in de toekomst meer van te doen.

 

“Ik geef Chris veel lof. Hij kwam veel meer naar voren dan we dachten dat hij zou doen en hij had een grote kin vanavond.

 

“Chris heeft alles gegeven vanavond. Dit is de beste Algieri die we in lange tijd hebben gezien, en als hij Manny had bevochten (Pacquiao) op die manier had hij kunnen winnen.

 

“Iedereen weet dat ik Floyd wil (Mayweather) volgende na al het gepraat erover, maar als je zo lang op iets wacht, kan het je tegenhouden. Ik wil geen andere vechters over het hoofd zien, inclusief Chris.

 

“Mijn eerste show met PBC was geweldig. Het publiek in New York was geweldig en raakte er echt in geïnteresseerd. De promotie was uitstekend en ik ben er trots op deel uit te maken van dit team.”

 

CHRIS Algieri

 

“Ik dacht dat ik Khan goed onder druk zette en kreeg mijn aanrakingen. Hij vond het absoluut niet leuk toen ik in zijn lichaam kwam.

 

“Ik dacht dat ik hem meerdere keren pijn had gedaan, maar Khan is een terughoudende vechter en hij draait weg. Ik denk dat de juryleden dat leuk vonden vanavond. Ik zou denken dat de stofzuiger, hardere schoten zouden wat meer respect krijgen.

 

“Ik vind PBC fantastisch. De focus ligt op de jagers, niet de politiek of de initiatiefnemers. Dit helpt de sport terug te brengen naar de gloriedagen van boksen van primetime-evenementen voor de fans.

 

“Ik heb niet veel over nagedacht na dit gevecht. Ik ben teleurgesteld, maar ik zal de film van dit gevecht bekijken en vanaf daar gaan we verder.”

 

JAVIER FORTUNA

 

“Ik ben erg verrast dat het gevecht de hele afstand ging. Vasquez is een sterke vechter. Na de vijfde ronde, Ik was aan het boksen om punten te scoren.

 

“Ik ben nooit echt gekwetst door Vasquez, maar ik heb mijn eigen hand op zijn hoofd bezeerd.

 

“Vasquez had tijdens het gevecht niet echt invloed op me. De zwelling in mijn oog is van een kopstoot.

 

“De grootste sleutel tot mijn succes vanavond was mijn training. Hiervoor had ik niet het uithoudingsvermogen dat ik nodig had. Echter, na mijn werk met Hector Bermudez in de aanloop naar dit gevecht was ik er meer dan klaar voor.

 

“Kampioen worden hier in New York is enorm voor mij. Ik ben erg trots op mijn prestatie vanavond.”

 

BRYAN VASQUEZ

 

“Mijn stijl is om te boksen en dan te bewegen. Fortuna vocht een slim gevecht vanavond. Hij wilde me niet aanspreken en vechten.

 

“Fortuna gebruikte zijn hoofd en ellebogen veel vanavond, maar ik wil dat niet als excuus gebruiken. Ik probeerde het de scheidsrechter te vertellen, maar er werd niets gedaan.

 

“Ik heb drie maanden lang heel hard gewerkt om dit gevecht aan te gaan. Ik hoop dat ik vandaag een aantal fans heb gewonnen, want ik vecht om ze te plezieren.

 

“Hopelijk krijg ik een herkansing want dit is niet het einde van mijn carrière, en ik zou graag de kans krijgen om die riem van Fortuna te nemen.

 

“Ik wil PBC bedanken voor deze kans. Het was geweldig om deel uit te maken van deze show en ik hoop dat ze in de toekomst weer aan me zullen denken.”

“This is going to be an entertaining fight because of our styles. We both like to throw a lot of punches and there will be a lot of movement. This will be a more skillful fight and I think the fans will enjoy what they see.

 

“I’ve always wanted to fight here at Barclays Center and I really am excited to put on a great performance for all the New Yorkers.

 

“Virgil Hunter has been great for me as a fighter and he’s helped me really understand the sport of boxing. I’ve worked on my technique and my defense and really just everything.

 

“Training camp for me has been really good. I’m focused on my opponent and I’m not going to make any mistakes. It’s going to be a great performance from me op vrijdag.”

“The only thing that matters is proving something to myself and I do feel like I have to prove something. I wasn’t happy with my last performance at all. I know I belong here at the elite level and it’s time for me to prove it.

 

“I like to challenge myself and this is a great opportunity. I’m ready for this, I will challenge anybody in the welterweight division.

“My intensity and focus has never been higher. The fun part of boxing is back again.

“Fans can expect to see ‘spizazz’ from me. That’s a word I came up with back in my amateur days. I’m here to bring that ‘spizazz’ terug, if you want to know what that is you have to buy a ticket for Vrijdag nachts.”

 

HEIDE HARDY

 

“I don’t look past what is in front of me. I have a really tough challenge in front of me op vrijdag. I know she has an incredible desire to win and I’m ready for that.

 

“I’m a pretty aggressive fighter but I’ve been known to box. I go in there and make adjustments but I’m not afraid to throw punches.

 

“There was a really unfinished feeling after my last fight, I was disappointed. I expected more from my opponent. I wanted to put on a show for fans to remember.

 

“I definitely want to make up for my last fight this time and I feel like my opponent is on the same page with me about where we need to go to take this sport further.”

Here is what Khan and Algieri had to say about training camp, each other and more:

 

AMIR KHAN

 

“Algieri is a fighter that has a lot of skills and assets. His range and height give him good advantages against opponents but I believe with my speed, movement and style it will be too much for him.

 

“Each day me and Virgil Hunter are getting stronger and we have built a really good rapport. It takes time to get that but he understands my style even more now and what works for me so we’re only going to keep growing.

 

“My aim since I was a kid and got into this sport was to be the very best. I fulfilled a dream when I got to the Olympics at 17 and brought back a silver medal. Later I became a world champion and then unified the light-welterweight division. My goal now is to fight the very best at 147 pounds and make my mark on this division too.

 

“I was away in training camp when my daughter turned one last week. It’s hard to be away from her but as a fighter those are the sacrifices you have to make. Everything I do is for her and I can’t wait to see her and spend time with her after this fight. Her birthday celebrations have been put on hold until after the fight!

 

“I’m really looking forward to returning to New York and fighting at Barclays Center in Brooklyn. I have good memories of this city because it’s the place where I had my first fight on US soil against Paulie Malignaggi in 2010 and also where I got married. I’m out to make it another good time this weekend.”

 

 

CHRIS Algieri

“I know that it gets said all the time, but this was truly the best and most intense training camp of my life. Working with John David Jackson has truly been a blessing. He has brought out the best Chris Algieri there is. You are going to see a whole new fighter come Vrijdag nacht.

 

“I am excited to be back in New York and excited to show the world what I am really made of op vrijdag nacht. We are just a few days away from the fight and I am so anxious to get in there and get to work.

 

“Amir is a tough fighter there is no doubt about that, but I am very confident in my ability and the game plan that coach has come up with for me.

 

“You are going to see two proven champions in a high intensity and high level fight, laying everything on the line come Vrijdag nachts.”

GILROY, ZOALS (Mei 26, 2015) – While entering the final days of training camp, four-division world champion, Robert “The Ghost” Krijger (32-3-1, 18 KO), gives his thoughts on his upcoming PBC on NBC main-event attraction against Aron Martinez. The 10-round bout will take place at StubHub Center in Carson, Calif., Juni 6, 2015 and will air live on NBC starting at 3:00 p.m. EN/12:00 p.m. PT.

 

On fighting in the PBC on NBC main-event:

“First I really want to thank Al Haymon for bringing boxing back to the fans. This is another wonderful opportunity where fans from all walks of life can see me fight on NBC for free. PBC on NBC has taken boxing back to its glory days and I’m honored to be headlining my second show. Everyone knows I come to fight and you can expect the same when I step in the ring with Martinez.

 

On staying active

“When a fighter is constantly staying busy, it makes a world of difference. My timing is down, my body is used to the rigorous training. When I’m on the grind, I perform at a much higher level. This will be the first time I’ve had back to back fights in a very long time. Everyone watching this fight will see the difference in my fighting style.

 

On fighting at the StubHub Center

“The StubHub Center is probably my favorite venue to fight in. The fans are incredible. Everyone has a great seat and you can feel the energy from the crowd while you’re fighting. It’s like there right on top of you. For some reason the StubHub Center brings out the warrior spirit in everyone. It’s a great place to fight!”

 

Op trainingskamp…

“Trainingskamp is al geweldig. Like I mentioned before, when you stay active, everything flows a lot smoother. I’ve taken my sparring sessions to a new level. I’m quicker on my feet and my timing is spot on. My dad Ruben who trains me, is really happy with my progress. Everything has come together really nice. It’s time to go to war!”
