WBC Super Welterweight Champion Tony Harrison Injures Ankle & is Forced to Withdraw from Rematch Against Former Champion Jermell Charlo

Hard-Hitting & Dangerous Jorge Cota to Step In and Replace Harrison Sunday, Junio 23 in FOX PBC Fight Night on FOX & FOX Deportes Main Event at Mandalay Bay Events Center

in Las Vegas

LASa VEGAS (Junio 3, 2019) – Super veltero mondĉampiono Tony Harrison injured his ankle in training last week and has withdrawn from his title defense against former world champion Jermell Charlo that was scheduled to headline FOX PBC Fight Night on FOX and FOX Deportes Sunday, Junio 23 at Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas.

Harrison has an inner and outer ankle sprain with torn ligaments in his right ankle and he will be out for 10 weeks before he can resume training. Harrison and Charlo plan to have their rematch later this year.

Stepping in to replace Harrison for a 12-round fight is the always dangerousGeorgo Cota (28-3, 25 KOs), who most recently lost a disputed split-decision in April on FS1 against Jeison Rosario. The 31-year old from Los Mochis, Sinaloa, Mexico had scored three straight knockout victories before the defeat in April.

Watching my Mexican brother Andy Ruiz fight last weekend, I am very motivated,” said Cota. “I saw how he got an unexpected chance to become a champion and surprise the world. He has inspired me to win this fight in the same way. I will shock the world on June 23 just like Andy did on Saturday, for Mexico, the country that I love. This is the most important fight of my career.

As we have seen from Andy Ruiz’s incredible upset of Anthony Joshua in the heavyweight championship fight on Saturday night, replacement fighters are not to be taken as a joke,” diris Tom Brown, President of TGB Promotions. “Jorge Cota is a dangerous fighter. He has heavy hands and he’s looking for an opportunity to make a statement. Jermell Charlo realizes just how serious this is and he wants to get his title back. I know he’s going to be prepared to make his own statement.

The 29-year-old Charlo will now have to wait for his opportunity to avenge the only loss of his career and regain his title against Harrison. Fighting out of Houston, Teksaso, Charlo won the vacant WBC title with a devastating knockout victory over John Jackson in 2016. He made three successful defenses of the title with highlight-reel knockouts over Charles Hatley and Erickson Lubin, plus a majority decision win over former champion Austin Trout.

It feels like a heartbreak,” Dirita Charlo. “I was ready to destroy Tony Harrison and now I’m going to get in there and destroy Cota. I always pray for my opponent to have safe care and make it to the fight healthy. It’s unfortunate that Tony Harrison isn’t my next victim. I want the best Harrison so I want him healed up and ready to go, because that will only bring out the best in me.

I feel my title was taken from me and being held hostage and I want it back. I will go through anything to get it back. The moment he’s cleared to fight I want the match and I will get my title back. I’m going in June 23 for a dominant victory with a ferocious attitude and a mindset to destroy, because I know I can’t leave it to the judges anymore.

Harrison’s injury is the latest twist in the super welterweight division that started last December when Harrison and Charlo’s first encounter took place live on FOX. Harrison won the decision to upset Charlo and take away the title. The close nature of the bout helped warrant an immediate rematch that promises to be just as highly charged and dramatic. Julian “J-Roko” Williams scored a hard-fought unanimous decision over Jarrett Hurd as the IBF and WBA titles changed hands as well in May.

This setback for Harrison, who is from Detroit and was trained early in his career by the late Emanuel Steward, is another challenge for the 28-year-old champion. Harrison was on track for a title shot before suffering the first loss of his career in 2015 to Willie Nelson. After three-straight wins, he earned a shot at the vacant 154-pound title against Jarrett Hurd. Although Harrison had strong moments in the fight, he eventually lost to Hurd and was forced to again climb to the top. After another three victories, including a win over former champion Ishe Smith, Harrison took advantage of his second world title opportunity against Charlo.

BILOXI, F-ino. (Majo 25, 2019) – Former super welterweight champion Aŭstino “Neniu Dubo” Trutoj (31-5-1, 17 KOs) battled former title challenger Terrell Gausha (21-1-1, 10 KOs) to a split draw (96-94 for Trout, 99-91 for Gausha, 95-95) in a 10-round super welterweight bout that headlined Premier Boxing Champions on FS1 and FOX Deportes on Saturday night from Beau Rivage Resort Casino in Biloxi, Misisipio.

We need to do that again. That wasn’t right,” said Trout of Las Cruces, N.M. “Let’s do it again. That was after a year layoff. Timing is going to be off. Now that I am a little more active. I need an immediate rematch. Immediate.

You never know how the judges are seeing it, but I know 99-91 Por (Gausha) wasn’t right. I was definitely in there more than one round,” continued Trout. “But I didn’t feel good in there tonight. I had to force a lot of things, and I had to close the gap in the later rounds.

I felt like I won the fight,” said Cleveland native Gausha. “That’s boxing sometimes. You don’t get the decision.

I have been through a lot this camp. It is what it is,” continued Gausha. “I caught a bad cold the last week of training camp. My father passed away during this training camp.

I don’t really care about a rematch with Trout,” concluded Gausha. “I just want bigger fights. I’d like to do something different. But if we have to go through (Trutoj) again we’ll do it and just make it more convincing next time.

In the FS1 co-feature, unbeaten contender Chordale Booker (15-0, 7 KOs) defeated rugged veteran Wale Omotoso (27-4, 21 KOs) per unuanima decido (100-90 X 3) En 10-ronda súper veltero konkurso. Booker, a southpaw from Stamford, Conn., dominated the action against the Nigerian Omotoso.

I’m always emotional when I fight,” said Booker. “#Hodia?, I just let it all out. I feel like this was my time to shine after finally making it to this level. This was definitely a step-up fight for me, facing a guy that they told me nobody else wanted to fight.

I feel like I’ve got nothing to lose,” continued Booker. “I just feel like I’m supposed to be here. I’ve put in a lot of work to get where I’m at, but I could have gone down a very different path. I got a second chance at life and now look where I’m at. I’d love to fight Trout or Gausha next, or any other title challenger that wants to fight, I?? Preta. I pitched a shutout tonight and I’m prepared to be tested and prove I’m the best.

The opening bout on FS1 featured Ahmed Elbiali (19-1, 16 KOs), an Egyptian-American who lives in Miami, Florido, scoring a technical knockout victory over Marlos Simões (13-2-2, 5 KOs) of Curitiba, Parana, Brazil who was unable to continue due to an injured jaw. Elbiali knocked Simões to the canvas and referee Keith Hughes stopped the contest 2:12 into the second frame.

When he went down, I clipped him with a left hook,” said Elbiali. “I knew right away that I could hurt him, and that hook felt like it landed well. He was a tricky and really awkward opponent, but I just went for it and got the job done.

I don’t really like calling out individual fighters, but I feel like I’m ready for a world title shot,” continued Elbiali. “We’re getting better with every fight and I’m ready.

The swing bout on FS1 saw Chicago’s Shawn Simpson (10-0, 3 KOs) defeat Sergio Quiroz (6-2, 1 KO) of Los Angeles by unanimous decision (60-54 X 3).

The PBC Prelims on FS2 and FOX Deportes featured hard-hitting cruiserweight prospect Efe Apochi (8-0, 8 KOs) of Nigeria continuing his perfect knockout streak as he stopped Brooklyn’s Earl Newman (10-2-1, 7 KOs) 2:17 into round seven.

The FS2 co-main event showcased a welterweight attraction with top prospect Amon Rashidi (7-0, 5 KOs) De Dallas, Texas scoring a sensational knockout over Mexico’sJuan Jesus Garces (19-25, 13 KOs) 2:12 into the fourth round.

In the opening fight of the FS2 telecast, Ghanaian super middleweight Habib Ahmed(27-1-1, 18 KOs) defeated Colombia’s Juan De Angel (21-11-1, 19 KOs) per unuanima decido (80-72 X 3) in an eight-round contest.

LASa VEGAS (Majo 22, 2019) – Light heavyweight brawler Ahmed Elbiali will return to the ring, and for the first time with new trainer Justin Gamber, kiam li alfrontas Marlos Simões in a 10-round showdown as part of Premier Boxing Champions on FS1 and FOX Deportes action this Saturday night from Beau Rivage Resort Casino in Biloxi, Misisipio.

PBC on FS1 and FOX Deportes begins at 8 P.M. Et / 5 p.m. PT and is headlined by former super welterweight champion Aŭstino “Neniu Dubo” Trutoj returning to the ring to take on former title challenger Terrell Gausha in a 10-round super welterweight battle.

Elbiali has recently began working with a new trainer in Gamber, who also trains super middleweight champion Caleb Plant, and will look to show his improvement in the ring this Saturday night. Here is what he had to say about his new trainer and more:

On training with new coach Justin Gamber:I’ve been learning a lot since I started training with Justin Gamber, which was about six weeks ago. Nothing against my old trainers, I just felt I needed a new look. Justin and I work well together and I’ve improved tremendously. I’m learning how to relax more in the ring, which has helped me keep my power in the later rounds of sparring. Justin is a great coach and together we are going to make some noise in the light heavyweight division.

On his recent training camp:
I’ve put in a lot of hard work for this training camp and I can see the difference compared to other camps I’ve had in the past. I’m working on the fundamentals of boxing, using my jab more and setting up my combinations. I know I have the power to knock out my opponents, but now I’m learning more how to set it up. Living and training in Las Vegas has been a big boost to my career because the sparring out here is second to none. I’m having a great training camp.

On his matchup with Marlos Simões:
I know Simões is a durable opponent who’s only been stopped once in his career. I’m expecting him to be in great shape. He’s had a lot of success in the ring, so I’m preparing for a guy who can really fight. I’m just going to go in there and execute my game plan.

On when he will be ready for a world title shot:
I want to get as many fights as possible this year and make a world title run in 2020. Certe, everything is predicated fight to fight, but that is the goal.

On making his televised return on FS1:
Fighting on FS1 is always fun and exciting. FS1 is the platform where us fighters get the most exposure while we’re coming up. You can’t compare any other network to FOX, where the whole world can tune in. It’s truly a blessing for me to be fighting on FS1.

Planto vs. Lee is presented by TGB Promotions and Sweethands Promotions.

Here is what the fighters had to say Tuesday from Gotham Hall in New York City:

MANNY PACQUIAO

I’ve never been scared of a challenge. I’m so excited for this fight against an undefeated champion. He’s the kind of fighter that you can’t underestimate. His record and successe gives me more motivation to work hard.

I will make sure that I’m 100 percent and ready for this fight. We’ll find out what happens on July 20, but it’s going to be exciting. I like being the underdog for this fight because that gives me more focus in training.

I’ve been careless and over confident in some fights, but this time around it’s different. Keith Thurman is a good fighter and we’re going to make sure the fans are happy on July 20.

It’s a great honor for me to be fighting back in Las Vegas and on the FOX Sports pay-per-view. I’m going to take advantage of the opportunity.

I chose Keith Thurman because he’s undefeated and I want to prove that at age 40 I can still beat a great fighter like Keith.

My time is not yet over. My journey is continuing. I’m going to prove that and more on July 20 against Keith Thurman.

I’m the kind of fighter that I don’t talk too much. I do my talking in the ring. I can do a lot of things in that ring. He can prove his words in the ring. I’m going to be a warrior on July 20 and show Keith Thurman what it’s like to be in the ring with me.

I will work hard for this fight. I haven’t felt this motivated and excited since the Oscar De La Hoya fight. I feel like I’m back against the best fighters in the world.

Our focus in every fight is on the speed and footwork, because those are advantages for me. We’re going to work on avoiding Keith’s offense.

Fans should watch this fight because it’s a once in a lifetime showdown. We’re going to bring action and I’m confident I will be victorious.

KEITH THURMAN

“Ni’re prete. This is a blessing to be here and a dream come true. I started boxing at the age of seven. I worked hard to be a champion and I’ve always wanted to fight the greatest names in the sport.

Pacquiao wants a challenge and I’m very grateful to be sharing a ring with a legend. If you understand boxing history, you know that times change. I believe boxing is in a new era. Come July 20, Pacquiao will disappear. He’ll always be remembered in the sport, but I’m doing to Manny Pacquiao, what he did to Oscar De La Hoya.

This is a big fight. I’ve waited 22 months to get back in the game. We had our ups and downs, but Keith Thurman is back on the rise. I’m going to make a big statement.

This training camp is going to start this Saturday. Once I get home, it’s grind time and on July 20, it’s going to be my time.

“Julio 20 Estas 23 Jaroj en la faranta. I’ve dedicated myself to this beautiful sport of boxing for so long and my first trainer Ben Getty told me that I had what it takes to be a great champion. I’m truly looking forward to having another chance to show it.

We definitely had a stretch with a lack of activity. Not everyone knows who Keith Thurman is today. You could see that I wasn’t at my best in January. But on July 20, ‘One Time’ Estas reen. I’m getting ready to have one of my best training camps for this fight.

I had the knockdown in my last fight that was a reminder of what ‘One Time’ Estas ĉiuj proksimume. We brushed the dust off and we’re taking that momentum into this fight.

I’m excited to be the guy who shows Manny Pacquiao where the exit is. He’s a legend who’s done great things. But I’ve never lost to a fighter who’s lost seven times. I have no intention of losing this fight and I don’t see him winning in any shape or form.

“Rapido, power and overall ring IQ will be the difference. I’m one of the smartest fighters in the sport. I always find a way to win. I know Pacquiao comes in shape, but he’s going to fall short of that finish line.

Caleb PLANT

I’ve been boxing my whole life. They say it takes 10,000 hours of work to become a true success at something. Come July 20, I’ll have been doing this for 18-years straight. No breaks and no Plan B. I’ve just been boxing, day in and day out.

Mike Lee may have a financial degree, but in boxing, I have a Ph.D. That’s something he doesn’t know anything about. I came from very rock bottom, where nobody makes it out. If he thinks I’m going to let him mess this up for me, he’s not half as educated as I thought he was.

I have everything to lose. Every night from now until July 20, I hope Lee and his team are envisioning the worlds ‘and still’. Because that’s all anyone is going to hear on fight night.

It’s exciting to be on this primetime card. Everyone who wants to take it to the top of the sport wants to be a main event at MGM Grand. Samtempe, where we fight is not most important to me. We can fight in the parking lot, because it’s about legacy to me.

Anytime that someone steps into the ring and wins their first world title in fashion, it’s going to be a confidence booster. But I did tell everyone what was going to happen. There’s a season for everything and right now is mine.

He may come into the ring bigger and heavier than me, but boxing skills are what wins fights. Years of repetition with boxing teachers, are what wins fights. You’ll see all of that on July 20.

I don’t look at myself as the favorite in any fight. I’m the one who’s not supposed to be here. Put everyone through what I’ve been through, and see if they would make it here.

MIKE LEE

This has been a culmination of years of hard work and sacrifice. Plej grave, I’ve gotten somewhere no one thought I would get. I’m fine being the underdog. I have nothing to lose.

I’m coming out with everything I have. This is everything I’ve ever wanted. I respect Caleb Plant, but on July 20, I plan on making it my moment.

I’ve headlined cards in Chicago and at Notre Dame before so the bright lights are nothing new to me. I’m very excited and working hard. On July 20, I’m going to keep proving people wrong.

The whole reason I got into this sport is to do it on big stages. Everyone wants to prove it on the biggest stage possible and there’s no bigger stage than at MGM Grand in Las Vegas. It’s a dream come true and it’s the reason I’ve worked so hard.

Moving down in weight is an advantage. I’ve got a great team working with me to make the weight easily and rehydrate the right way. I’m going to be the bigger and stronger guy in the ring.

I’ve had people that never thought I’d get here and I love it. It takes a different kind of person to step into that ring in front of so many people. You have to be ready to go out there and risk it all. I fight who they put in front of me and keep winning. That’s what I plan to do on July 20.

FOX Sports is thrilled to present our second Premier Boxing Champions Pay-Per-View featuring one of boxing’s biggest stars, Pacquiao, facing the champion Thurman, who wowed nearly three-million viewers live on FOX in January with his latest title defense,” said Bill Wanger, FOX Sports EVP, Programaro, Live Operations and Research. “This promises to be a can’t miss night of boxing with an unprecedented FOX Sports PBC doubleheader, as we open the evening with the FOX PBC Fight Night, headlined by newly crowned champion Plant defending his title against the undefeated Lee. Plant set the FS1 viewership record for a boxing show in January when he won his title, and we’re sure this match up will deliver even bigger audiences leading into the Pacquiao vs. Thurman Pay-Per-View.

A three-time Fighter of the Year and the Boxing Writers Association of America’s reigning Fighter of the Decade, Pacquiao (60-7-2, 39 KOs), who hails from Sarangani Province in the Philippines, is the only sitting Congressman and Senator to win a world title. After serving two terms as Congressman, Pacquiao was elected to a Philippine Senate seat in May 2016, capturing over 16 million votes nationally. Pacquiao’s boxing resume features victories over at least seven current and future Hall of Famers, Inkluzivanta Oscar De La Hoya, Ricky Hatton, @Marco Antonio Barrera, Erik Laborspiritoj, Miguel Cotto, Shane Mosley and Juan Manuel Marquez.

In his last match on January 19, Pacquiao put on a vintage performance against four-division champion Adrien Broner, scoring a 12-round unanimous decision in the 70th match of his illustrious career. It was his first time fighting in the U.S. en du jaroj. Before that, he scored an impressive knockout over Lucas Matthysse to win his version of the WBA welterweight championship in Malaysia last July 15.

All my life I have confronted challengesin life, in politics, and inside the ring,” said Pacquiao. “Keith Thurman is the type of challenge I crave as a fighter. He is the biggest and best test. That is why I want to fight him. We are going to give boxing fans an exciting fight and a great night.

The 30-year-old Thurman (29-0, 22 KOs) is the longest reigning welterweight champion in boxing, having collected his WBA title with a stoppage victory over Diego Chaves in 2013. He has successfully defended that title eight times and became a unified welterweight champion when he defeated Danny Garcia by split decision to win the WBC title. Plagued by a litany of injuries, including bone chips in his right elbow that had to be surgically removed, Thurman was out of action for nearly two years before getting back into the ring with a hard fought victory against Josesito Lopez in January on FOX.

Having taken up the sport when he was in grade school, the Clearwater, Florida native blossomed under the tutelage of his first trainer, Ben Getty, to become an outstanding amateur. Though Getty has passed away, Thurman still carries those boxing and life lessons with him whenever he steps into the ring with his current longtime trainer Dan Birmingham. His power punching earned him the nicknameOne Time.

I’m extremely excited for this opportunity to get a fight that I’ve wanted for a long time,” said Thurman. “The right circumstances have aligned for it to happen now and I’m grateful for that. Me and my team are looking forward to it. It’s going to be an honor to be in the ring with Manny Pacquiao. It’s going to be fun to go back to MGM Grand in my first pay-per-view with FOX Sports. I believe that Ben Getty would be very proud of what I’ve been able to accomplish. He said I’d be able to dominate the welterweight division and be a multi-million-dollar fighter and a star in the sport.

Manny Pacquiao is beatable. He’s been beaten before in his career. He’s a fan favorite and a legend. For me his boxing tactics are predictable. He fights in spurts and you have to take advantage of that. You have to be respectful of his power. But I believe my movement, athleticism and ring knowledge will be able to present him something he’s not seen in all his years of boxing.

LASa VEGAS (Majo 21, 2019) – Undefeated IBF Super Middleweight World Champion Caleb “Sweethands” Planto will make the first defense of his title against unbeaten contender Mike Lee in the main event of FOX PBC Fight Night and on FOX Deportes Saturday, Julio 20 from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.

Televidigita priraportado komenciĝas je 7 P.M. ET / 4 p.m. PT and will precede the FOX Sports PBC Pay-Per-View event that also takes place at MGM Grand and is headlined by eight-division champion Manny Pacquiao facing WBA Welterweight World Champion Keith Thurman.

Caleb Plant put the boxing world on notice with his exciting title-winning performance in January and will look to build on that showing against an unbeaten contender in Mike Lee on July 20,” diris Tom Brown, Prezidanto de TGB Promotions. “His first defense of the title will put Plant in primetime on FOX and FOX Deportes in Las Vegas and building up to the Pacquiao vs. Thurman pay-per-view event. With two undefeated fighters going toe-to-toe in this first main event of the evening, fans are in for a memorable night of action.

Biletoj por la evento, which is presented by TGB Promotions and Sweethands Promotions, are on sale now and can be purchased online through AXS.com, charge by phone at 866-740-7711 or in person at any MGM Resorts International box office.

Planto vs. Lee will see two hungry unbeaten fighters square off, as Plant looks to defend his title and cement himself as the class of the 168-pound ranks, while Lee will look to join the super middleweight elite as a world champion for the first time.

To win the title, Planto (18-0, 10 KOs) turned the tables on the hard-hitting Venezuelan slugger Jose Uzcategui in their IBF championship fight in January on FS1. Going into the match the consensus was that Uzcategui was the harder puncher and that Plant would have to withstand his power to walk away with the belt. It was the 26-year-old Plant, Tamen, who stunned Uzcategui by dropping him to the canvas twice on the way to a convincing unanimous decision. It was an emotional night for Plant, who is from Ashland City, Tenn. and now lives in Las Vegas. He had dedicated his career-best victory to the memory of his late daughter Alia, who suffered from a rare disorder that caused seizures.

I’m more than ready to return to the ring on July 20 as the main event on FOX at MGM Grand in Las Vegas,” said Plant. “I’ll be defending my IBF world title in tremendous fashion and this is one fight you guys will not want to miss. I’m taking this fight just as seriously as my last opponent.

This guy is undefeated and looking to stay that way, but unfortunately for him, he took on the wrong challenge against the wrong guy. Come July 20, he’ll realize he’s in deeper water than he’s ever been in. My last fight was for Alia, but this fight I’m dedicating to my beautiful mother Beth Ann. May you Rest in Peace, Love you Momma.

The 31-year-old Lee (21-0, 11 KOs) graduated from the University of Notre Dame with a degree in business, but decided to pursue his boxing dreams rather than take a job on Wall Street. A native of Wheaton, Illinois who now lives in Chicago, Lee has made a steady climb up the ladder and has been campaigning at light heavyweight. He will be moving down to super middleweight to challenge for his first world championship. Lee is coming off an impressive unanimous decision victory over Jose Hernandez on last June 8.

I’ve have dreamt of the opportunity to fight for a world title for years,” Diris Lee. “All the years of hard work, pain and sacrifice have led me to this moment. On July 20 I will be victorious and prove everyone wrong that didn’t believe I was good enough to even get here.

When I spent almost two years in and out of hospitals battling an autoimmune disease there were moments I never thought I could get back to this level and there were doctors who told me my fighting days were done. But I have won every fight since and I plan to prove that anything is possible if you want it bad enough. I could not have done this without my Dad, my advisor Mike Borao and my trainers Jamal Abdullah and Julian Chua.

BROOKLYN (Majo 19, 2019) – WBC Superpezula Monda #?ampiono Deontay “La Bronza Bombisto” Pli #sova?a liveris la 40Th knokaŭto de sia kariero en giganta modo sabatvespere, sendante devigan kontestanton Dominic “Problemo” Breazealeplata sur la dorso kun varmarko dekstra antaŭ raŭka homamaso en Barclays Centro, la hejmo de BROOKLYN boksado ™, en evento prezentita de ĉefaj boksaj ĉampionoj. Sukcese defendante sian zonon la naŭan fojon, Wilder aliĝas al glora firmao kune kun Hall of Famers Joe Louis, Mahometo Ali, Mike Tyson kaj pli kaj iĝas la 10-a batalanto en historio por fari naŭ aŭ pli sinsekvajn sukcesajn pezegultitoldefendojn.. Rigardu TIE: Https://s.sho.com/2Hp0AEh

En la amasiĝo al la ĉi-vespere mondĉampiona batalo, Pli #sova?a (41-0-1, 40 KOs) plurfoje promesis, ke la batalo ne daŭros longe. La altega Tuscaloosa, Ala. indiĝeno plenumis sian vorton, notante la 20Th unua ronda knokaŭto de lia kariero kaj lia 15Th knockdown kiel pezegulo mondĉampiono. Breazeale (20-2, 18 KOs) povis elteni la unuan fruan atakon de Wilder, sed ne povis venki la 10-kalkulon de arbitraciisto Harvey Dock kiam Wilder konektis fluan kun la plej danĝera dekstra en boksado poste en la malfermaĵrondo..

“Ĉio ĵus eliris el mi ĉi-vespere”, Said Wilder. “Mi scias, ke ĝi estis granda amasiĝo, estis multe da malamikeco kaj multaj vortoj kiuj estis diritaj kaj ĝi ĵus eliris el mi ĉi-vespere. Tio estas kio faras boksadon tiel bonega.

“Mi ĵus diris al Breazeale, ke mi amas lin kaj kompreneble mi volas vidi lin iri hejmen al sia familio. Mi scias, ke ni diras kelkajn aferojn, sed kiam vi povas batali kontraŭ viro kaj tiam vi povas brakumi kaj kisi lin, Mi deziras, ke la mondo estu tia. Ni manpremas kaj ni vivas por vidi alian tagon kaj pri tio temas.”

Ĉar la atento de la peza divido turniĝas al kio sekvas, Wilder insistas ke batalo kun Tyson Fury, la solan homon, kiun li alfrontis kaj ne venkis, aŭ Anthony Joshua restas sur la tablo kaj en la laboroj.

“Mi komprenas kion Fury faris,” Said Wilder. “Kiam vi estas faligita sur la tolon tiel, mi komprenas, ke vi devas rekunigi vin. Sed la revanĉo okazos, kiel ĉiuj ĉi tiuj aliaj bataloj okazos. La bonega afero estas ĉiuj ĉi tiuj bataloj maloftaj en diskuto. La grandaj bataloj okazos. Mi nur volas, ke vi havu paciencon.”

Breazeale, kies nur du malvenkoj nun venis kontraŭ kaj Wilder kaj Josuo, estis seniluziigita li ne estis permesita daŭrigi la batalon.

“Mi pensas, ke la refulo haltigis ĝin iom frue, ĉar mi povis aŭdi lin diri sep kaj ok, sed tio estas boksado,” Dirita Breazeale. “Li faris sian laboron kaj konservis nin sekuraj por nia venonta batalo.

“Mi stariĝis kaj havis miajn krurojn sub mi. Ĝi estas la peza divido, do iras al grandaj pafoj de uloj kun potenco. Ĉi tio estis situacio, kie li atingis la grandan dekstran manon antaŭ ol mi. Mi pensis, ke mi venos en la postaj ĉirkaŭvojoj. Mi revenos kaj iros por la peza titolo denove.”

En la co-#?efa?o, Mondĉampiono de WBC Lanuga Peza Gary Russell Jr. (30-1, 18 KOs) surmetis ankoraŭ alian profesian elmontron por defendi sian zonon la kvaran fojon kontraŭ kuraĝa Kiko Martinez (39-9-2, 28 KOs). Pro fendo kiu malfermiĝis super la maldekstra okulo de Martinez, arbitraciisto Ricky Gonzalez ĉesigis la batalon en la kvina raŭndo laŭ la konsilo de la ringbordkuracisto, rezultigante teknikan knokaŭton.

Russell, kiu batalis unuafoje en jaro, montris neniujn signojn de ringa rusto kaj elmontris sian plenan lertecon inkluzive de siaj varmarkaj fulmaj rapidaj manoj. La 30-jaraĝa Capitol Heights, Md. indiĝeno estis domina de la malferma sonorilo kaj alteriĝis sur rimarkinda 40% Lia potenco stampiloj. En tute-aga batalo kun malmulte da malfunkcio, Martinez faris pli ol sufiĉe por ludi sian rolon. La hispano konstante venis antaŭen, sed Russell daŭre celis la tranĉon, kiu malfermiĝis super lia okulo post dekstra hoko en la dua raŭndo.. La ringflankoficialulo postulis la ĉesigo de la batalo ĉe 2:52 de ronda numero kvin.

“Mi faris sufiĉe bone,” Diris la 2008 Usono. Olimpikulo Russell al SHOWTIME-raportisto Jim Gray. “Ni restis malantaŭ la piko kaj li ne povis preterpasi ĝin. Ni sciis, ke intelekto super atletiko faros ĝin.

“Ni volas [WBA Featherweight Champion] Leo Santa Cruz,” Russell daŭrigis portante ĉemizon kiu legis "Leo Next". “Ni volas fari ĉi tiun batalon okazi. La fajro estas tute varma ĉi-flanke de la kampo. Vi estos bruligita. Mi ŝatus ke tiu batalo okazu ĉi-jare. Ni faru ĝin okazi.”

“Ĝi estis bona halto por tre dura batalo,” diris la eksa mondĉampiono Martinez. “Mi certe estas vida batalanto do la tranĉo malfaciligis ĝin. Gary estis en bonega fizika kondiĉo kaj ĝi estis tre malfacila batalo.

“Mi nun iom ripozos, sed mi revenos. Mi pensis, ke mi havis kelkajn bonajn momentojn kaj havis bonan dividadon. Mi pensas, ke mi falos reen al 122-funtoj por gajni mondan titolon tie.”

En la teleelsenda malfermilo, Undefeated perspektivo Juan Heraldez (16-0-1, 10 KOs) kaj iama mondĉampiono Argenis Mendez (25-5-2, 12 KOs) batalis al tre konkurenciva plimulta remizo. Du juĝistoj gajnis la batalon 95-95, dum triono havis Mendez venkanta 97-93.

Batalante antaŭ sia mentoro Floyd Mayweather, Las Vegas’ Heraldez kontrolis multajn el la fruaj preterpasas fiksante la rapidecon kaj establante sian pikon. Heroldez ekstermis Mendez 126-108 en tutaj pugnobatoj kaj 70-30 en pikoj tra la 10 Rondoj. Malfrui frue, Mendez, sperta veterano kaj 2004 Dominika Respubliko Olimpiko, uzis sian sperton por kreski reen en la batalon. La takto reprenis en la kvina raŭndo, ĉar ambaŭ batalantoj akiris plurajn pezajn batojn sed la impeto ŝanĝiĝis direkte al Mendez. La 32-jara Mendez, kiu kontraŭbatalis sep nunajn aŭ iamajn ĉampionojn, fermis la batalon escepte forta, gajnante la finan raŭndon sur ĉiuj tri juĝistoj’ scorecards. Sen fari tion, Mendez perdintus la batalon.


“Mi pensis min gajnis la batalon,” diris seniluziigita Mendez. “Li faris nenion al mi. Kiel li gajnis la batalon? Se mi devas pruvi, ke mi venkis lin en revanĉo, I’ll esti preta. Mi ne lasos ĝin al la juĝistoj.


“Mia rapideco kaj mia potenco malfaciligis al li. Mi pensis, ke mia kontraŭpunado estas vere bona. Li laciĝis al la postaj ĉirkaŭvojoj kaj tio lasis min proksimiĝi iom al li por ekigi mian ofendon.”

simile, Heraldez opiniis ke li faris sufiĉen por venki en la batalo kiun li rigardis kiel ebla elirpartio.

“Mi pensis, ke mi gajnis proksiman decidon,” Heroldez diris. “Mi ne pensis, ke ĝi estas remizo. Li faris nenion, kio dolorigis min iam ajn.

“Li ne vere okupiĝis kun mi. Li nur provis moviĝi kaj elekti siajn pafojn, sed ĝi ne estis io por kio mi ne estis preta. Mi aŭ prenos la revanĉon kun Mendez aŭ antaŭeniros al mia celo de mondĉampioneco.”

Antaŭ la televidelsendo, SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING COUNTDOWN prezentis tri subkartajn altirojn elsenditajn vive sur la sociaj platformoj de SHOWTIME Sports. Batalo inter pezeguloj robert alfonso (18-0-1, 8 KOs) Kaj Iago Kiladze (26-4-1, 18 KOs) finiĝis en disigo post ok raŭndoas de ago. Dum unu juĝisto gajnis la batalon 77-75 por Alfonso, alia havis ĝin 77-75 por Kiladze, kun la tria juĝisto gajnante ĝin 76-76, rezultigante la remizo.

Ankaŭ eniri la ringon estis 2016 Usono. Olympian Gary Antuanne Russell (9-0, 9 KOs), la pli juna frato de la lanugpeza ĉampiono Gary Russell Jr., Kiu falisMarcos Mojica (16-4-2, 12 KOs) dufoje por gajni halton 2:13 en la tria raŭndo. Rondigi la agon estis Brooklyn-indiĝena kaj 2016 Haitian Olympian Richardson Hitchins (9-0, 5 KOs), kiu gajnis TKO de Alejandro Donacoj (4-2-3, 4 KOs) post kiam Munera estis terenbatita en raŭndo tri kaj nekapabla daŭri malgraŭ fari ĝin al la fina sonorilo de la rondo.

Jen kion la gazetara konferenco partoprenantoj devis diri ĵaŭdon de Barclays Center:

DEONTAY PLI #SOVA?A

“Ĉi tiuj batalantoj ĉiam bonege kaj pensas, ke ili havas la ludplanon por venki min. Ili pensas, ke ili kaptos min. Ĝi ne funkcios. Nenio, por kio ĉi tiu ulo preparis, funkcios.

“Mi esperas, ke li alportas la plej bonan, kiun li povas alporti. Ĉi tio estas pli ol nur boksa matĉo. Mi estas pasia pri tio, kion mi faras. Ĉi tio jam delonge venis por mi kaj Dominiko. Li petis ĉi tion, kaj li ricevos.

“Ĝi estos mirinda nokto por mi, kaj malgaja nokto por li. Esti pezego-ĉampiono estas granda respondeco. Ne ĉiuj estas faritaj por esti ĉampiono. Ĝi estas pli ol esti glamour aŭ porti ĉirkaŭ ĉi tiu prestiĝa zono.

“Mi trejnis pli malfacile ol mi iam trejnis. Li inspirigis min kiel mi estis kontraŭ Bermane Stiverne. Mi volas vundi Breazeale tiel malbone. Mi konservos mian trankvilon ĝis tiu tempo venos sabaton nokte.

“Mi ne kredas Breazeale kiam li parolas. Mi estas en ĉi tiu ludo dum tre longa tempo. Iu kiel li ne venkos min. La plej proksima li atingos ĉi tiun zonon estas en siaj sonĝoj.

“Mia tuta teamo estas kun mi ekde la unua tago. Ni komencis kune kaj ni iros la tutan vojon kune. Ĝi estis mirinda kuro por mi. Mi komencis mian karieron ĉe la fundo kaj laboris ĝis ĉi tiu punkto.

“Ni neniam rapidis ion ajn. Eĉ en la Olimpikoj, Mi ankoraŭ lernis en la laboro. Ni trejnis por esti longtempa ĉampiono, ne mallongperspektiva ĉampiono, kaj ni plenumis tion. Mi dankas kiom malproksimen mi venis kaj por ĉio, kio estas kun ĝi. Malfacila laboro pagas.

“Miaj agoj parolos pli laŭte ol miaj vortoj. Mi estas la plej bona. Mi estas la elektita. Li povas diri kion li volas. Ĝi estos bonega batalo tiel longe kiel ĝi daŭras. Mi alportos la doloron. sabato nokte, ĉiuj estas gajaj.”

DOMINIC BREAZEALE

“Mi estas tre ekscitita pro ĉi tiu batalo. Vergilio Hunter kaj mi mem havis bonegan tendaron. Ĝi estis vere unu el la plej bonaj de mia vivo. Mi estas mense koncentrita kaj fizike pravas.

“Mi estas ekscitita reveni kaj akiri alian knokaŭtan venkon. Akiri tiun WBC-zonon estas ĉio por mi. Ĉi tio estas mia Super Bowl.

“Venko por mi sabate estas ĉio. Wilder ne scias en kio li eniras sin. Li estas en batalo. Li pli bone estu memfida pri siaj kapabloj, ĉar sabate nokte, li estos en la plej malfacila batalo de sia vivo.

“Mi venkos Deontay tiel malbone, ke li neniam volos laĉi la gantojn denove. Sportoj estas 80% mensa. Kiam I’m farita kun li, la mensa aspekto tuj estos batita el li.

“Mi faros alian eksplodan agadon. Mi revis dum la lasta jaro pri aŭdado 'kaj la nova.’ Ĝi estas bela afero kaj mi ne povas atendi por realigi ĝin kaj havi mian manon levita.

“Wilder tute ne evoluis dum sia kariero. Li aspektas same kiel ĉe la amatoroj. Li devas paroli sin mem por senti sin memfida.

“Mi estas tro mense agordita por koncentriĝi pri tio, kion iu diras. Kiam mi batalas, mi ne zorgas pri tio, kion mia kontraŭulo povas fari, sed pri tio, kion mi volas fari kaj kiel mi povas ekzekuti.

“Neniu el la vortoj de Deontay tute influas min. Li daŭre bojos kaj mi nur atendos. Mi trankviligos lin sabate nokte.”

GARY RUSSELL JR.

“Mi estas malsata kaj preta. Ĉiu, kun kiu mi paŝas sur la ringon, malhelpas miajn celojn. Kiu ajn provas haltigi min, estas en danĝera pozicio.

“Ni provos kontroli la ritmon de la batalo per mia piko. Mi ne pensas, ke li preterpasos la pikon. Li provos fariĝi malglata kaj fizika. Mia plano estas fari la ĝustigojn, kiujn mi bezonas por akiri ĉi tiun venkon.

“Ĝi ĉiam estas familia afero kun la Russells. Ni moviĝas kiel unuo kaj ni elstaras kiel unuo. Mia familio estas de kie mi tiras mian tutan energion. Ĝi neniam estas distraĵo. Ili donas al mi la brulaĵon, kiun mi bezonas.

“En boksado vi devas havi plenan fidon kaj kredon je via trejnisto. Mi ne povis imagi pli bonan taŭgan ol havi mian patron. Eĉ se li donas instrukciojn, tio eble ne estas 100% ĝuste en miaj okuloj, Mi scias, ke ĝi estos la plej bona afero por mi.

“Neniu en ĉi tiu divizio volas paŝi sur la ringon kun mi. Ili scias la rapidecon kaj potencon kaj kapablojn, kiujn mi alportas ĉiun fojon kiam mi paŝas en la ringon.

“Deontay kaj mi estis en la sama olimpika teamo, plus Dominic kaj mia frateto Gary Antuanne Russell ankaŭ estis U.S. Olympians. Ĝi faras mirindan karton sabate nokte.”

KIKO MARTINEZ

“Mi venas por batali kaj akiri tiun titolon. Mi havis tre glatan trejnejon kaj senton 100 procentoj fizike.

“Mi pensas, ke mia sperto estas supera. Li pensas, ke mi estas nur prema batalanto, sed li ne vidis min boksi tiel, kiel mi boksos lin sabate.

“Ĉi tio estas la plej granda ŝanco de mia vivo. Esti sur ĉi tiu platformo kaj povi batali por la ĉampioneco estas tre speciala. Mi tuj profitos ĝin.

“Mi esperas, ke Russell ne prenas min malpeze ĉar mi ankoraŭ havas multajn kapablojn. Ĝi estos bonega batalo tiel longe kiel ĝi daŭras.”

JUAN HERALDEZ

“Tendaro iris bonege kaj mi ne povas atendi prezenti spektaklon. Mi sciigos ĉiujn en ĉi tiu divido, ke mi venas por ili. Mi kaptos la momenton kaj plene profitos ĝin.

“Mi sentas min forta kaj mi pretas batali. Mi nur kalkulas la minutojn ĝis mi povos paŝi en la ringon. Estas multe da ekscito kaj mi ĉion ellasos sabaton.

“Mi planas venki en sensacia modo sabate. Mi montros al ĉiuj, ke mi estas ludanto ĉe 140-funtoj kaj mi pretas por iu ajn, kiun ili povas meti antaŭ mi..

“Mi ne planas trafi. Mi tuj skatolos lin kaj algluiĝos kaj moviĝos. Li ne povos tuŝi min. Se venos la okazo por knokaŭto, Mi prenos ĝin.”

ARGENIS MENDEZ

“Mi estas tre ekscitita pro ĉi tiu ŝanco. Mi havis bonegan trejnejon kaj sabate nokte vi vidos spektaklon en Barclays Center.

“Mi amas boksadon kaj mi amas ĉi tiun ŝancon, kiun mi havas sabate nokte. Mi montros mian pasion por la sporto dum ĉi tiu batalo. Mi sentas min bone fizike kaj simple ne povas atendi eniri la ringon.

“Venko sabate vespere malfermas la pordon al mi. Homoj komencos vidi min kiel unu el la plej bonaj batalantoj de Dominika Respubliko.

“Ĝi tuj estos bona batalo. Mi havas la rapidecon kaj kapablojn por eksterigi lin. Ni ambaŭ estas tre inteligentaj batalantoj. Mi kredas, ke mi estas la pli bona batalanto kaj ĝi montros sabate nokte.”

STEPHEN ESPINOZA, Prezidanto Sporto kaj Eventa Programado, Showtime Retoj Inc.

“La peza divido denove ekscitas kaj multe de tio rilatas al Deontay Wilder. Ĝi ankaŭ estis helpita de SHOWTIME kaj nia engaĝiĝo al la dividado. Neniu alia reto estis pli engaĝita aŭ investita pli en la pezaj pezoj ol SHOWTIME kaj ni fieras pri tio.

“Ni ankaŭ fieras, ke pluraj el la batalantoj sur ĉi tiu karto ofte batalis en SHOWTIME. Deontay faros sian 12Th aspekto kaj Gary faros sian 11-an. Pli #sova?a, Russell kaj Dominiko ĉiuj lanĉis siajn karierojn sur ShoBox, kiel tiom da aliaj grandaj batalantoj.

“Kiam vi kunigas du ulojn por longe atendita rankora matĉo, ne estas multo, kion oni devas diri. Deontay estas la plej long-reganta pezeguloĉampiono en la sporto. Ĉi tio estus la naŭa defendo por li, kio estas io, kion nur naŭ aliaj pezeguloj faris en la historio de boksado.

“Deonay havis du el la plej ekscitaj pezegulbataloj en lastatempa historio pasintjare. Koncerne Dominiko, li estas granda forta sperta ulo, kiu antaŭe estis sur la mondscenejo. Li batalis por mondĉampiona titolo kaj li venas de tri sinsekvaj venkoj. Li havas multe da potenco kaj ni vidis tion en sia lasta batalo kontraŭ Carlos Negron, ke li povas ŝanĝi la batalon per unu pugnobato.”

BRETT YORMARK, Ĉefoficisto de BSE Global

“La peza divido estas la parolado de la sporta mondo dum monatoj, kaj decas, ke la mondĉampiono defendos sian titolon ĝuste ĉi tie en Broklino en unu el la plej grandaj bataloj en la sporto ĉi-jare..

“Deontay, Mi diris delonge, ke ĉi tio estas via hejmo for de hejmo kaj ni ne povas atendi havi vin reen. Vi havas grandan kontraŭulon ĉi-semajne en Dominic Breazeale. Dominic vi jam faris du prezentiĝojn en nia ringo kaj ni scias, ke la adorantoj antaŭĝojas pri alia bonega spektaklo.”

FAIRFAX, VA. (Majo 11, 2019) ? Julian “J-Rock’’ Williams knew he was walking into the lion’s den when he traveled from Philadelphia to Virginia to face undefeated unified super welterweight champion “Swift” Jarrett Hurd in his backyard. But Williams (27-1-1, 16 KOs) wasn’t afraid.


He came. He saw and he conquered Hurd (23-1, 16 KOs), scoring a 12-round unanimous decision, handing Hurd his first loss and taking the IBF, WBA and IBO championships before a hometown crowd at the EagleBank Arena on the campus of George Mason University.


The crowd and the primetime audience, which tuned in to FOX and FOX Deportes, witnessed a valiant performance from both Williams and Hurd in what will certainly be a “Fight of the Year’’ candidate. The judges had Williams handily defeating Hurd with scores of 116-111 Kaj 115-112 Dufoje.


Williams had come up short in his previous attempt at a world title when he was stopped on via TKO by Jermall Charlo in 2016. He was overwhelmed by emotions after his upset victory over Hurd, who was a presumptive favorite over the 29-year-old Williams.


I am just overwhelmed. This is such a great feeling. I outclassed him. I am one of the best fighters in the world,” said Williams. “Maybe I wasn’t ready for the title the first time I got the shot. I took the loss. I took it like a man and the whole world doubted me. I went into this fight a five to one underdog.’’


“Tio ĉi estas revo venita veran. I have been waiting for this for years. I never ditched the gym. I never got into girls or left the gym. I am from the streets, but I was never in the streets. I was in the gym practicing my craft.


The only people that believed in me were my team, but all I can say is ‘and the new’!”


Hurd is often a slow starter and Williams made him pay for that. He jumped on the defending champion right out of the gate, throwing crisp punches behind a pistol-like jab. Williams dropped Hurd in the second round with a shot to the temple.


“It didn’t really change my strategy. It was just a flash knockdown. It caught me by surprise. I wasn’t really hurt,’’ Hurd said.


Sensing he had stunned Hurd, Williams came out firing in the next round. He picked up the pace and Hurd decided to match the ferocity of the attack rather than wither under it. Midway through the third round, Hurd landed a blistering left uppercut that snapped Williams’ head upward and slowly started to regain his form.


Hurd and Williams went to the trenches in the middle rounds, closing the distance and fighting in tight quarters. Conventional wisdom would seem to favor Hurd in that space, because he is physically bigger than Williams. But Williams did more than hold his own.


By the seventh round, the fight had become a war of attrition and a test of wills. Hurd was cut over his left eye in the eighth round. By then, Williams was completely in control.


Williams said he was well prepared for everything that Hurd threw at him, but it was by no means a cakewalk.


He wasn’t easier to hit than I thought. He was crafty and he had heavy hands. I just stayed poised. I listened to my coach and I just worked,’’ Williams said. “He couldn’t hurt me. I saw everything he was throwing. I knocked him down. The game plan was to win however I could. I adapted on the fly. We knew he had certain tendencies and worked on his tendencies. ‘’


Hurd said he didn’t feel like himself in the fight against Williams. Fighting in front of a raucous hometown crowd filled with family and friends as he hails from nearby Accokeek, Md.


“I wasn’t able to get off. I can’t really call it right now. I have to go back and watch. I was loading up on my shots instead of just letting my hands go,’’ Hurd said. “J-Rock was just the better man tonight. There’s definitely a rematch clause in our contract and I’m going to go for it. I’m going to come back better than I was tonight.’’


Super lightweight sensation Mario Barrios (24-0, 15 KOs) scored a devastating second round knockout victory over Juan Jose Velasco (20-2, 12 KOs) En la co-#?efa?o. Barrios of San Antonio, Texas kept his undefeated record intact when he landed a crushing body shot that sent Velasco to the canvas midway through the second round. Referee Hugo Spinola counted out Velasco at 1:16 of the second round as the Argentine was on his hands and knees trying to catch his breath.


Barrios said he was trying to be patient and use his jab to set up the perfect shot.


I saw him opening up every time he would step in. I knew one of the body shots was going to do it and I found the sweet spot,’’ Barrios said. “We weren’t expecting it to end that quickly. I wasn’t predicting a knock out, but I knew I had the power to do it and stop him.


I was very confident. I had a great camp. I can’t thank Virgil Hunter and the team for the preparation for this fight. We knew he was vulnerable with body punches and that was something I work on regardless. It is one of my favorite shots. I have been working on it since the amateurs.”


Barrios said he would build on the victory over Velasco and continue to climb the ladder at 140 Funtoj.


I want a world title shot. I am always in the gym. I am always ready. I want all the smoke at 140. I want any of the champions. And I’m ready to bring a big fight to all my hometown fans in San Antonio.’’


In the opening television bout middleweight contenders Matt Korobov of Orotukan, Russia and Immanuwel Aleem of East Meadow, N.Y. stalked each other for 10 Rondoj. They took turns pressing the action and playing the aggressor, dishing out and absorbing the best that each had to offer. In the end Korobov (29-2, 14 KOs) and Aleem (18-2-1, 11 KOs) had fought to a majority draw. One judge had Korobov winning 97-93 and two judges scored it 95-95.


In the sixth round Korobov landed a combination that rocked Aleem and had him in trouble momentarily. But Aleem weathered the storm. Aleem came out strong in the ninth round, practically running across the ring to meet Korobov, who had slowly raised his 36-year-old body off the corner stool at the last second. Sensing the close nature of the fight, both Korobov and Aleem unloaded and landed some heavy shots seeking to keep the outcome away from the judges’ scorecards.


Aleem said he thought he won the fight.


“I didn’t feel like he was doing enough. I was trying to use my range. He was just touching me. I realized when I started hitting him that he didnt have the gas.,’’ Aleem said. “I am faster than people think. I see open shots better than people expect. I made a statement tonight and I want to keep making statements.


Korobov , who lost a unanimous decision to Jermall Charlo in his last fight, said he felt sluggish during the match against Aleem.


I felt heavy and not totally sharp enough. It was hard to react and stop him from going inside. I have things to work on.,’’ Korobov said. “He was tougher than I expected. He wasn’t as strong as Charlo, but he is a really good fighter. He kept coming forward. He wasn’t afraid. He just kept throwing punches.
