Here is what the press conference participants had to say Tuesday from Barclays Center:

Deontay Wilder

“It’s a pleasure to be back here in Brooklyn. Barclays Center is very close to my heart. I’ve been here so many times and I have a real connection to this arena. I’ve had some of my most memorable moments in the ring here.

“It’s always great to get a mandatory out of the way. They’re like flies buzzing in my ear. I just want to get them out of the way so I can do great things for the heavyweight division. I want one champion, one face, one name, but you need a lot of cooperation to make that happen.

“I want to prove to the world that I’m the best. That’s what I believe in my heart. Until someone proves me wrong, I will continue to believe that. Breazeale is the next man in line. I can’t wait for this one.

“I’m just going to show everyone on May 18. The way I feel right now, the fight could be this week. The champion must always be ready for whatever a challenger can bring.

“I hope he’s training his hardest. I’m glad he has Virgil Hunter on his side to show him something new. Every man I’ve faced; they’ve landed on the canvas. I’m going to continue to do that on May 18.

“No man who gets in the ring will be able to defeat Deontay Wilder. I hold the keys to the heavyweight division. No fighter is doing what I’m doing. I’m trying to give the fans something they’ve never seen before.

“Enjoy this one, because it’s going to be a massacre. Maggio 18 will be a beautiful day for me and a beautiful day to see what I’m planning to do for the sport of boxing.”

DOMINIC Breazeale

“I’m super excited for this. I’ve been waiting over a year and a half for a shot at this title. I’ve got three knockouts here at Barclays Center and I can’t wait for another.

“I’m a great fighter but there are always things to be learned. I’ve learned a lot already with Virgil Hunter. I bring something that everyone wants to see from heavyweights, and that’s trouble. I’m going to bring pressure and action.

“I’m sick of seeing this guy walking around with his belt. I’m going to put him down. People are going to be rising to their feet when I knock him down.

“I’m so excited to get this fight. I’ve been on Deontay’s undercards and I steal the show every time. Deontay does nothing right in the ring. He looks like a circus-act. All he does is talk. But there’s nothing he can say on May 18.

“Deontay loves to hear his own voice. All he does is talk and talk. It’s time to get in the ring. Nobody can get in there and save him. It’s just me and him. Leather on leather. We’ll see who lands first. Hopefully he gets off the canvas.”

VIRGILIO HUNTER, Breazeale’s Trainer

“It’s a pleasure to be here at Barclays Center for a heavyweight championship fight. We have a monumental task to try to overcome. Dominic and I connected last month and after a few workouts, we saw we had a good fit and an understanding of what needs to be done.

“Dominic works hard, he’s very determined and he knows that this is his opportunity and he can’t let it slip away from him. He also knows the risk at hand. We’re looking forward to May 18.”

STEPHEN ESPINOZA, President Sports & programmazione di eventi, Showtime Networks Inc.

“We are thrilled to be bringing you Deontay Wilder vs. Dominic Breazeale on SHOWTIME. It would be an understatement to say that there has been a lot of speculation regarding Deontay’s future. We’re proud to have him on SHOWTIME. It was critical for Deontay, for the sport and his fans, that this fight be available not on pay-per-view, but on SHOWTIME. Because of his insistence, that’s the primary reason we’re standing here today.

“SHOWTIME is where this fight belongs. We’re the home of the biggest fights and best talents, month in and month out. This is where a heavyweight title fight belongs. This will be Deontay’s 12th appearance on SHOWTIME and or SHOWTIME PPV and we’ve built something special.

“Recently ESPN named its World Fame 100, which lists the most talked about athletes in the world. Deontay is ranked 34, two slots behind Tom Brady and higher than any other active boxer in the sport. He’s a bonafide superstar, there is no question.

“Dominic Breazeale is big, forte, experienced and powerful. Above all, he’s motivated. It’s no secret that there is a personal rivalry between these two fighters. This will not be a friendly promotion. There is genuine animosity. This is a premium fight and this is the heavyweight championship on May 18 in diretta su Showtime.”

ARLINGTON, TX. (Marzo 17, 2019) – Errol Spence Jr. retained his IBF Welterweight World Championship in his hometown in front of 47,525 fans with a unanimous decision over four-division world champion Mikey Garcia in the main event of the first Premier Boxing Champions on FOX Sports Pay-Per-View event Saturday night from AT&Stadio T di Arlington, Texas.

“The motivation fighting in front of my hometown crowd made me feel great,” said Spence. “These people have supported me since day one and I wanted to put on a good performance for all of them.”

“I really appreciate the love and support of the fans tonight,” ha detto Garcia. “It’s a great night and all the credit to Errol, he’s a great champion. He’s the truth. He executed his game plan very well.”

The bout started technical, with Spence pumping a consistent jab and attempting to cut the ring off while Garcia was patiently looking for a chance to counter. Garcia had some success early throwing counter left hooks over Spence’s jab, but was never able to get in a rhythm against the busier champion.

“He came out here with a good game plan and kept the distance at his favor,” ha detto Garcia. “I couldn’t get my rhythm going and he did what he had to do. I tried to make adjustments and he kept executing.”

In quarto round, Spence dominated most of the action before Garcia made a late surge and forced Spence into a defensive crouch for the final moments of the round. Garcia kept that energy going early in round five, putting Spence on the defensive temporarily before he regained his momentum and returned to connecting on powerful straight lefts.

Spence increased his body-punching as the fight went on and looked to wear down the fighter who was moving up in weight. Garcia began bleeding from his nose in round eight, at which point Spence increased his output and landed 35, 29, 34 e 25 punches in rounds nine through 12 rispettivamente, according to CompuBox.

“Throughout training camp, a lot of commentators thought he was too smart and I couldn’t box as well as him,” said Spence. “I showed I can box and I can move my head if I want to. The game is to be smart, it’s the sweet science. I had the size and reach advantage, so why not use it to take away the jab? It’s a weapon for me and it takes away one of his weapons.”

“I was able to hold my own,” ha detto Garcia. “I felt good and I felt strong myself. I think he felt my power, but he definitely has power also.”

While Garcia showed his mettle in making it the distance, Spence was simply too effective, with one judge even scoring round 11 10-8 for Spence. Spence threw a career-high 1082 punches and out landed Garcia by a staggering 345 a 75 margine.

After 12-rounds of action, all three judges saw the fight for Spence, con il punteggio di 120-108 due volte e 120-107.

“I give Mikey Garcia all the credit for taking this fight,” said Spence. “Mikey and I put on a great show in front of all these lovely fans. I respect him so much and I appreciate him for stepping up.”

“We just went 12-rounds with a great welterweight champion,” ha detto Garcia. “That’s a feat no one has done recently. I’m proud of what I was able to do. I have to go back and think about it. I will probably go back to lighter divisions but we’ll have to think about it.”

Dopo la lotta, Spence declared that he wanted to fight boxing legend and welterweight titleholder Manny Pacquiao il prossimo, who entered the ring after the fight.

“He’s broken records here before, he’s a legend in the sport and it’d be my honor to fight him next,” said Spence.

“Sì, why not?” said Pacquiao, when asked about facing Spence next. “We’ll give the fans a good fight. I’m so happy to be here at AT&T Stadium and I hope I will be back here soon.”

In caso di co-main, unbeaten former 168-pound world champion David Benavidez(21-0, 18 KO) dominato J'Leon Amore (24-3-1, 13 KO) to earn a second-round stoppage in their super middleweight matchup.

“It’s a dream come true to fight on this stage in front of these fans,” said Benavidez. “These fans give me the motivation to get up every day and go the extra mile.”

From the opening bell Love sought to crowd the taller Benavidez, but the 22-year-old Benavidez quickly made him pay, landing a powerful left hook that stunned Love. Love was able to last the round, but took more powerful hooks from Benavidez before the bell.

“I expected to knock him out, but when I hit him with the first god shot, I knew he wasn’t going to last,” said Benavidez. “I tried to pace myself, but it wasn’t necessary tonight.”

Benavidez wasted little time in the second round, delivering power shots that put Love on the run. Benavidez caught Love with a clean combo on the ropes that stunned Love and forced referee Laurence Cole to jump in and stop the bout 1:14 in secondo round, as Benavidez began to throw furious combos.

“He was getting his shots off, but I don’t think I was taking too much punishment,” said Love. “I wasn’t out of the game completely but he did catch me with a couple good shots.”

Dopo l'incontro, Benavidez set his sights on WBC Super Middleweight Champion Anthony Dirrell, who was in attendance at the fight.

“I saw Anthony Dirrell with the WBC belt. He can’t call himself champion until he fights me. That’s my belt. I’m going to go get it. It’s mine.”

Additional action featured former bantamweight champion Luis Nery (29-0, 23 KO) knock down former champion McJoe Arroyo (18-3, 8 KO) four times on his way to a fifth-round victory by stoppage in his U.S. debutto.

“We’re two great fighters who were here to put on a show,” said Nery. “That’s what you have to expect from fighters of our caliber. I’m happy to start on the right foot here in my U.S. debut and show everyone I’m still the best at bantamweight.”

Nery stalked Arroyo from the opening bell, throwing big power shots that forced his opponent to fight off his back foot. Con 45 seconds left in round two, Nery scored his first knockdown with a left that stunned him and follow-up combination that put Arroyo on the canvas.

Arroyo was unable to keep the hard-charging Nery from coming forward and again hit the mat late in round three, as a wide left hook hurt Arroyo before he was put down from a flurry that followed. The trouble continued for Arroyo in round four, as he was knocked down twice more in the final minute of the round.

“I never felt like I was dazed or anything, they were just hard punches,” said Arroyo. “I went down but got right back up. If it were up to me I’d have kept going. I have to give respect to my opponent for his performance. This isn’t the end of my career. I’ve seen him fight before but I was surprised by his power. It was his night tonight.”

After the fourth round, Arroyo’s corner stopped the bout, making the official stoppage 10 seconds into round five. Nery dominated the bout, out landing Arroyo 87 a 36, in fase di atterraggio 44 per cento dei suoi pugni di potenza.

“We’re going to train hard and hopefully by June, we’ll have the belt back,” said Nery. “I want to win back my belt, then unify the division.”

The opening bout on pay-per-view saw heavyweight fan-favorite Chris Arreola (38-5-1, 33 KO) score a third-round stoppage over previously unbeaten Jean Pierre Augustin (17-1-1, 12 KO).

“Augustin is a hungry kid who tried to make a name off of me,” Detto Arreola. “I lose and I’m out, but I’m not going out. I touched him a couple of times and saw he was hurt. I stayed calm and the stoppage came.”

After blood started pouring from Arreola’s nose towards the end of round two, the Riverside, California-native got off to a quick start in round three, connecting with a straight left that stunned Augustin and nearly sent him to the canvas in the opening seconds.

As the round progressed, Augustin tried to hold and move to regain his composure, but was eventually caught with a flurry in the neutral corner that put him on the canvas. While he got up and was able to continue, another flurry in Augustin’s corner, including a big overhand left, eventually forced referee Neal Young to stop the fight 2:03 in tre tondo.

“Every fighter feels like they can continue, ma è quello che è, it’s out of my control,” said Augustin. “I was more stunned than hurt, but he jumped on me and finished.”

In the dominant final round Arreola landed 18 di 30 pugni potenti, compared to just three punches landed in the round by Augustin.

“Amo combattere,” Detto Arreola. “We’re both were trying to beat each other up and I love it. I’m blessed to be a fighter.”

Precedendo il pay-per-view, PBC Prelims on FS1 featured former heavyweight champion Charles Martin (26-2-1. 23 KO) winning via disqualification against previously unbeaten Gregory Corbin (15-1, 9 KO) in the eighth-round of their showdown. After deducting a point from Corbin in rounds four, five and six because of low blows, referee Mark Calo-oy stopped the bout in round eight after another low blow. The official time of the disqualification came 53 seconds into round eight.

“I don’t think he really wanted to fight, he wanted to hit me low and see how much he could get away with,” ha detto Martin. “I could sense that he didn’t want to engage anymore.”

“È quello che è, I thought I was hitting him on the belt,” said Corbin. “We wanted to go to the body, I thought he was tired. I hurt him once, but the low blows did it for me.”

“We’re going to get back in camp, take a few days off and then get back to work,” ha detto Martin. “We’re staying busy in 2019.”

Ecco quello che i partecipanti alla conferenza stampa hanno dovuto dire Mercoledì:

ERROL SPENCE JR.

“This is a dream come true fighting in my hometown at AT&Stadio T. I can’t wait to put on a great performance. Seeing Mikey’s face here today, it’s got me hungrier than ever to put on a great performance

“The size difference won’t matter. Skill for skill and talent for talent, I’m more dominant than him in every aspect. I’ll beat him at anything he wants to do. On paper he’s the toughest opponent to date, but once we get in the ring we’ll find out.

“I don’t think anyone has the power to knock me out. We don’t allow that kind of mentality into training camp. I hope he tries though.

“Mikey is supposed to think he’s going to win this fight. He called me out, so they obviously think that they see something. I’m glad he’s as confident as I am. I hope he keeps that same energy inside of the ring.

“Our training camp, we train for a hard 12 lotta rotonda. We prepare for a bruising fight. If I knock him out early, then that’s a bonus. We trained for the distance because we know anything can happen in a fight.

“I’m always calm, that’s just my demeanor. I could talk to Mikey Garcia in the locker room before the fight then come out and knock his head off. I’m always on go. I’m naturally like this. I’ve been ready to go for eight weeks. I’m tired of seeing him and I’m just ready for fight night.

“I can’t worry about what Mikey sees in me. I let my coach worry about it. Everyone thinks they see something looking on the outside, but it’s a lot harder once you’re in the ring.

“This win makes me pound-for-pound number one. Mikey has a great record and a big fan base and I feel like winning this fight turns me into a star. Everyone wants to take Floyd Mayweather’s place as the face of boxing, and this puts me on the right track to become the face of boxing and the best fighter in the world.

“This is a legendary fight. This is where we see what fighters are made of. There have been a lot of great fights when little guys came up and beat a bigger fighter. You can’t ever write off the little guy. This is going to be a hard fight.

“I know I’m the best fighter in the world and I’m going to show it Saturday night. I’m going to punish him and make him wish he took his brother’s advice to not take this fight.”

MIKEY GARCIA

“I have all the tools and all the skills needed to beat Errol Spence Jr. When it comes to timing, velocità, reflexes and defense, you name it, I’m better.

“Here in Texas, it’s like a second home. I’ve won two world titles here. Having great fan support at the grand arrival was a special moment for me.

“I’ve got to go in there Saturday night and show why I picked this fight. I want to make history and this is the one that will get me there.

“I’m prepared to do whatever it takes to win this fight. We trained very hard. Possiamo andare 12 rounds for sure. Ma, if I get a chance to hurt my opponent, I’m definitely going to jump on him and get the knockout.

“sabato sera, Errol is going to find out why I picked this fight. All of my opponents say they don’t see anything special when they watch me, until they get into the ring.

“I know what I have to do on fight night. I know all the work that I put in. I didn’t put all that effort in for nothing. sabato sera, I have to execute. Once I get inside the ring, that switch will turn on.

“I have to fight the best fight of my life. If I don’t, then I can’t overcome the challenge. You don’t win a fight with size and weight. We fight smart, we fight intelligently and pick our shots. There are a lot of factors. That’s how I win this fight.

“Getting this victory will forever leave my name in the history books. No other fighter is daring to do what I’m doing. I’m here to make history and this fight does that. This fight is about big challenges and obstacles.

“All the attention and buzz about this fight is for real. It’s not often you get a fight like this. Undefeated champions in their prime facing each other. If you want to witness history, you better buy a ticket or the pay-per-view.”

DERRICK JAMES, Trainer di Spence

“Getting up on the stage today, it was like fight night. I feel what Errol and Mikey are feeling. It’s go-time for both of these guys.

“Mikey Garcia is a great opponent, but he’s still just another opponent. We’re going to go in there and show him why we’re better. Errol is feeling great, so I am too.

“Ring intelligence is definitely one of Mikey’s best attributes. But he’s never been in the ring with Errol. Errol has been in the ring sparring with Floyd Mayweather before and I don’t think Mikey has the same ring intelligence as him.

“Errol knows what he should be doing and what he shouldn’t be doing during fight week. He will be ready on Saturday night.”

ROBERT GARCIA, Garcia’s Brother & Allenatore

“Not only have all of our sparring partners told us this, but his opponents always say the same thing. Once they’re in the ring, they realize how hard Mikey hits and how strong he is. Spence doesn’t know that but he’ll find out Saturday.

“A lot of fighters have problems with southpaws like Spence, but Mikey has a lot of experience facing lefties and I’m confident that won’t be a factor.

“Spence’s style is pretty basic, so it’s not too hard to find sparring partners to emulate him. Spence does everything right, just like Mikey. From a preparation standpoint, his style isn’t a big challenge.

“We haven’t just been facing regular sparring partners. They’re experienced, talented and undefeated fighters. He’s facing middleweights to get ready for this one and I know he will be.”

CARSON, CALIF. (Marzo 9, 2019) – WBC Welterweight World Champion Shawn Porter retained his title with a close split-decision victory over yordenis ugásSaturday night in the main event of Premier Boxing Champions on FOX and FOX Deportes from Dignity Health Sports Park in Carson, California.

“The crowd was expecting a big brawl, but that’s not the way this fight needed to go tonight,” disse Porter. “The style that we used left the fight close. As the clock ticks, you have to do what’s working. Tonight the foot movement was working and it made Ugas have to reset.”

“I showed tonight that I belong with the elite fighters at welterweight,” disse Ugas. “All I can say is that I’m ready to fight any of the top names in the division. I’ll be back.”

The early rounds were defined by Porter using his jab to try to cut down the distance, while Ugas worked power shots and jabs to the body. Porter had some success on the inside landing on Ugas’ chin during flurries, but was unable to hurt the Cuban.

In tutto cinque, both men stood in the center of the ring for an extended period of time throwing power punches that had the crowd on their feet. Ugas began to work cleaner on his counterpunching as the fight went on, and Porter focused on movement while trying to snap his jab.

“I was on my toes all night,” disse Porter. “I was very focused the entire fight and just listening to my corner. We wanted to out box him and eventually turn it on and press him. But my dad did not think that was the smartest way to win the fight. We fought this way for 12 rounds and no one has ever seen that from me before.”

Porter’s activity clashed with the sharp countering and body punching from Ugas. Secondo Compubox, Porter was more active on a per round basis, lancio 42.9 punches per round to 37.4 from Ugas. Ugas held the advantage in body punches landed at 57 a 34, while the two fighters each landed 79 pugni potenti.

Nel secondo round 10 Porter began to bleed from his right eye due to an accidental head butt, but late in round 11 he landed one of his most significant punches of the fight when he backed Ugas up with a left hook to the head. Dopo 12 round, i giudici’ scorecards reflected that there were numerous close and hard to score rounds as all three judges agreed on only the fourth and ninth rounds, which went to Ugas and Porter respectively.

One judge saw the fight 117-111 for Ugas, which was overruled by scores of 116-112 e 115-113 for Porter. Both fighters believed after the fight that they had done enough to win.

“There’s no doubt about it, I was robbed tonight,” disse Ugas. “After the first round I figured him out and dominated the fight. He had no answer when I was pushing him back. I dominated the fight in my opinion.”

“We fought a good smart fight tonight,” disse Porter. “I was consistent and I thought we won a majority of the rounds. We got the win, we’re still champion and we’re looking forward to what is next.”

Additional action, saw a back-and-forth welterweight contest in which Abel Ramos(24-3-2, 18 KO) got a unanimous decision over Francisco Santana (25-7-1, 12 KO) dopo 10 round.

Santana struck first, landing a clean left hook that put Ramos on the canvas late in the second round. Santana had been stalking Ramos around the ring for much of the early action, before catching him in a neutral corner for the knockdown.

“He caught me on a flash knockdown in the second round,” disse Ramos. “I didn’t see the punch coming and he caught me a little bit off balance. As soon as I got up, I was good.”

Both fighters were effective in mixing up their attacks, although it was Ramos that held a 138 a 46 advantage in jabs landed, per CompuBox. Santana’s power punching caused Ramos to begin bleeding from his nose in round six, but in round seven Ramos connected with a flurry of shots that appeared to have Santana temporarily out on his feet.

Santana was able to survive the round, but was then out landed 56 a 26 over rounds eight and nine. Both fighters pushed forward in a 10th and final round that saw them land a combined 68 punches out of 224 gettato. Despite the early knockdown, Ramos was awarded the decision on all three scorecards by tallies of 98-92, 97-92 e 95-94.

“I was very surprised by the scorecards,” said Santana. “I thought I did enough to win. It was very competitive but I was landing more significant punches. I knew he was a warrior who would come back to fight after the knockdown. I don’t know what else to do at this point, but I’ll always keep my head held high.”

“Ho pensato che ho vinto la battaglia,” disse Ramos. “I landed more punches. I felt like I was landing all night and I was doing good clean work throughout the fight.”

In the opening bout on FOX and FOX Deportes, rising heavyweight prospect Efe Ajagba (9-0, 8 KO) remained unbeaten and earned the best win of his young pro career by stopping veteran Amir Mansour (23-4-1, 16 KO) after two rounds.

Ajagba was dominant from the outset, knocking Mansour down twice in the first round. He first landed a clean straight right to Mansour that caused him to tumble to the ground. He got to his feet but was then put onto the ground by a straight left from Ajagba.

“I’ve never fought a southpaw in the pros before,” said Ajagba. “Ronnie Shields has taught me a lot and given me the plan on how to fight a southpaw and how to use my right hand against them.”

Mansour made it to the second round but continued to take a beating as Ajagba landed flush to the head consistently. After the round, referee Thomas Taylor took a long look at Mansour in his corner decided to call the fight after two rounds.

“I want to be the best heavyweight in the world,” said Ajagba. “That’s my dream. I’m going to go home and work hard and prepare for the next fight.”


PBC Prelims on FS1 preceded the main card and featured former world championJuan Carlos Payano (21-2, 9 KO) sconfiggendo in precedenza imbattuto Damien Vazquez (14-1, 7 KO) by unanimous decision after eight-rounds of bantamweight action with scores of 80-71 due volte e 79-73. Additional action on FS1 saw rising welterweight prospect and 2016 Lithuanian Olympian Eimanta Stanionis (8-0, 5 KO) score a unanimous decision victory over a game Samuel Figueroa (11-2, 4 KO) con il punteggio di 80-72 three times across eight rounds of action.

“Danny Garcia è uno dei pugili preminente di questo generazione,” ha detto Tom Brown, Presidente di Promotions TGB. “Lui è un campione tutto e per tutto. Il suo curriculum è un vero e proprio ‘chi è chi?’ del meglio a 140 e 147 sterline nel corso dell'ultimo 10 anni. Ha fame per ottenere il suo titolo indietro e lui è disposto a passare attraverso a chiunque di farlo. Adrian Granados è un concorrente difficile cercando di entrare nelle fila di campionato e Danny rappresenta Percorso diretto. E 'il tipo di scontro che fa per intrattenere fiammiferi. The fans at Dignity Health Sports Park and watching on FOX and FOX Deportes on April 20 are in for a treat.” 

“Danny Garcia knows that he¹s going to have to be on his A-game, as a victory over Adrian Granados puts him back in position to regain his welterweight championship,” , ha detto Leonard Ellerbe, CEO of Mayweather Promotions. “Adrian Granados is a fighter thatalways comes to put on exciting fights and holds nothing back against his opponents. The action leading up to the main event is sure to be crowd pleasers. I expect the fans in attendance to bring the energy to Dignity Health Sports Park and those tuning in on FOX and FOX Deportes will be fully entertained as well.”

Garcia (34-2, 20 KO) has fought and defeated many of the most formidable opponents at 140 and 147-pounds spanning two generations-Erik Morales, Zab Judah, Kendall Holt, Amir Khan, Lucas Matthysse, Paulie Malignaggi and Lamont Peterson among them. Six of his seven opponents in the welterweight division were former or current world champions and 12 del suo ultimo 16 opponents overall carried the same distinction. Included in that run was a headlining performance live on FOX in January 2016, when he defeated Robert Guerrero to capture his welterweight title in Los Angeles. Representing the fighting city of Philadelphia, the 30-year-old most recently lost an exciting and narrow decision to Shawn Porter in their September title fight.

“I cannot wait to get back in the ring and put on the Danny Garcia show once again,” ha detto Garcia. “Granados was talking a big game when we first announced the fight and I plan on proving him wrong on April 20. The Southern California fans have always treated me right and I’m excited to give them a great fight.”

Fighting out of Cicero, Ilinois, Granados (20-6-2, 14 KO) has made a name for himself by delivering tough, action-packed fights against top fighters in the sport, including Shawn Porter and Adrien Broner. The 29-year-old burst onto the scene by shocking then unbeaten Amir Imam via a stoppage victory in their 2015 clash. After a fight last June against Javier Fortuna that ended in a no contest, Granados picked up two-straight knockout wins heading into this matchup.

“This is a huge fight for me and definitely one of the most important in my career,” said Granados. “I’m looking to dominate, look impressive and control the fight. I’ve fought in Southern California before and I’m looking to take advantage of the great Mexican crowd. This is Mexico versus Puerto Rico and Chicago vs. Philadelphia. It’s territorial on a lot of levels and you can expect us to leave it all in the ring.”

Fighting out of Imperial, California, Ruiz (31-1, 20 KO) was a two-time Mexican national champion at super heavyweight as an amateur, before embarking on a pro career that saw him win his first 29 combattimenti. The 29-year-old lost a close majority decision against Joseph Parker in their 2016 world title fight and rebounded with victories over Kevin Johnson and Devin Vargas last year.

The 36-year-old Dimitrenko (41-4, 26 KO) is a longtime heavyweight contender who has challenged top fighters throughout his career. Born in Russia but fighting out of Hamburg, Germania, he most recently lost to Bryant Jennings in a back and forth fight in August and owns wins over Derric Rossy, Adrian Granat and Miljan Rovcanin.

The 22-year-old Figueroa (18-0, 13 KO) most recently delivered a dominant performance in knocking out Moises Flores in the third-round of their January fight on FS1. Representing Weslaco, Texas, the younger brother of former world champion Omar has a five-fight knockout streak that he brings into the ring on April 20.

A former interim champion and title challenger at bantamweight, Parejo (22-3-1, 11 KO) will look to make his mark at 122-pounds when he battles Figueroa on April 20. The 32-year-old from Venezuela lost a bantamweight world title fight to Ryan Burnett last March, but rebounded to most recently defeat Benjamin Mendoza in February. He won an interim title by stopping Luis Hinojosa in 2014 before losing a split-decision the following year to former champion Zhanat Zhakiyanov.

ARLINGTON, TX. (Marzo 5, 2019) – IBF Welterweight World Champion Errol Spence Jr. e campione del mondo in quattro divisioni Mikey Garcia hosted separate media workouts in Dallas and Riverside, COME. respectively on Tuesday as they near their historic showdown that headlines the first Premier Boxing Champions on FOX Sports Pay-Per-View event Saturday, Marzo 16 from AT&Stadio T di Arlington, Texas.

Spence hosted media at World Class Boxing Gym in Dallas and was joined by undefeated former super middleweight champion David Benavidez, che assumeJ'Leon Amore in PBC on FOX Sports Pay-Per-View action. Garcia’s workout also featured heavyweight fan-favorite Chris Arreola, who participated in the workout at Robert Garcia Boxing Academy and will face Jean Pierre Augustin in Pay-Per-View action beginning at 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT.

Tickets for this showdown, che è promossa da Promozioni TGB e Ringstar Sport, sono già in vendita, e può essere acquistato presso SeatGeek.com, il Fornitore Ufficiale di Biglietteria di AT&Stadio T.

Here is what the fighters and more had say Tuesday from the two media events:

ERROL SPENCE JR.

“Sono molto eccitato per questa lotta, especially to have it at AT&Stadio T. Sono 100% focused and ready for next week. This fight is going to have a bigger crowd, be more electrifying and will just be an amazing event overall.

“A lot of times when I’m in AT&T Stadium watching the NFL games, or watching Pacquiao fights or Canelo fights, the jumbotrons are so big that you get caught up looking up even when you’re ringside. It’s great because there isn’t a bad seat in the place with the jumbotron.

“This is definitely one of those crossover fights for me. Garcia is the biggest name to date that I’m fighting on American soil. It’s just great being so young in my career, fighting in my first pay-per-view and fighting with a guy like Garcia who brings over a different fanbase.

“You can tell how I looked ten weeks ago compared to how I look now. I’m not overlooking Garcia. I’m in tip-top shape, slim and ready. The difference is that now in a pay-per-view fight you have to be more dedicated and focused to promote the fight, showing that you are a star in boxing and sports media.

“If you know me and you know my boxing style, you know I’m never in a boring fight. Even if it’s just me beating up my opponent, or them just being hurt, I’m always going to try to stop my opponent and put on a spectacular performance.

“I put that pressure to look great on myself, not just because I’m undefeated or because everybody says this about me, I do it for myself to put on a great performance and a great show. I want to do that so great guys can look at me and think about if they want to fight me or not. That’s why a lot of guys don’t want to fight me.”

MIKEY GARCIA

“A lot of people underestimate the power when they face me. They don’t see my physical size as a threat. But you know they feel the power once we’re in the ring and definitely change their minds.

“(I wanted to fight Spence) because he’s the best right now in the (welter) divisione. I want to make a statement. I want to make a mark, and you know I have to do that against the best.

“I believe I’m a better fighter overall. When it comes to footwork, I think I have the better footwork. When it comes to speed, I think I have better speed. When it comes to defense, I have better defense. With timing, I have better timing. All of these things are what will help me win this fight. The only thing that he has going for him that’s apparent is the size, height, weight and reach.

“I’ve always said I’m better than him. Not by a lot, but just enough to beat him. He also reminds me of myself in a lot of ways, il modo in cui combatte, the way he is. He does everything well, good footwork, buona velocità, controls the fight at his distance that he likes… In a lot of ways, it resembles the way I fight. But I still feel that I’m better in every one of those ways and that’s what I’m betting on.”

DAVID BENAVIDEZ

“I’m extremely excited to be fighting in front of 40,000-plus people in the co-main event on March 16. It’s like a dream come true fighting at AT&Stadio T.

“I’m looking forward to going in and getting a knockout… I’ve been training extremely hard. Three months of training for this camp. It’s been good. I have like six pounds left to lose, so I haven’t struggled with the weight at all. I’ve been on a diet for at least three months now. The work has been done in and outside of the ring. Everything has been perfect leading up to this fight and I’m extremely ready.

“It was difficult (losing my title). I beat myself for that belt. In 2019, we are not taking any steps back, only forward.

“There are a lot of good fights I know that can be made. Così, I am very excited to do my part and hopefully face-off against Anthony Dirrell, Caleb Plant or Callum Smith at the end of the year. I’m already in line to fight for the WBC title, but I’ve got to first take care of my job with J’Leon Love.

“Love is a good boxer, una contro-perforatore. He’s been in the game for a while now. Ma come ho detto, I’m ready for anything. I’ve studied him a lot, so I’m just ready for anything he presents.

“I want to become the undisputed champion (at super middleweight). That’s my ultimate goal. Then I can talk about moving up. Ora, I want all the belts.”

Chris Arreola

“Ora, my career is all about putting in the work and my legacy. I’m not in this anymore for money. I love money, but I’m comfortable. I’m here for legacy. I want to leave something behind… I’m chasing a title.

“I feel mentally sharper now. Mentally I’m just relaxed in the ring. Some people are amped the whole round. But no, I know how to relax and work the ring and work my fight.

“The main thing this time around is I’m fighting a lefty and the first three or four times being in the ring sparring it’s a little different. It’s different angles and different punches… So that’s the main thing that’s probably the hardest part is lefties and getting used to it.”

DERRICK JAMES, Trainer di Spence

“I just think Errol is so hungry and he has the ability to be great. The way he adjusts in the fights and he really sets the tone. Soprattutto, his fights have been one-sided. Regardless who he’s fighting against, how great they are, what their record is, what they said they’ll do to him, he’s just been able to have one-sided affairs. Hopefully we can have the same thing in this fight.

“This has been a tremendous training camp. I’ve seen how hard Errol has worked and how motivated he is. He’s extremely confident, and rightfully so. Nel marzo 16, I know Mikey is going to come prepared, but so are we. Whatever Mikey brings into the ring, we’re going to have the answer.”

ROBERT GARCIA, Mikey’s Brother & Allenatore

“Mikey has been there before in many championship fights. Ovviamente, this is the biggest challenge against a bigger, heavier guy. But at this point in training, I think we’re in great shape. We know (Errol) is going to be the heavier guy in the ring, but he’s not going to be the better or smarter guy.

“We’re going to fight a technical fight, especially in the first few rounds, to figure out what Errol Spence is brining into the fight. But if we have to back him up and fight on the inside, then we’re going to do what’s necessary.”

Richard Schaefer, Presidente & CEO di Ringstar Sport

“FOX is really putting their weight behind boxing, and you’ve seen what that meant for other sports. When UFC got involved with FOX, you saw how it elevated the sport of MMA and UFC… FOX is doing the same thing now on the boxing side and I really believe it will elevate boxing. It brings the general market to this sport, and I think that’s what we’re going to see here with this pay-per-view.

“When you have a fight like Spence and Garcia, boxing fans know about it. Sports fans know about it. But the general market doesn’t really know about it. Così, I think if you can market towards the general market it just opens up the flood gates as it relates to pay-per-view. And that’s the advantage FOX has compared to an ESPN.”

MINNEAPOLIS (Febbraio 24, 2019) – Anthony Dirrell (33-1-1, 24 KO) sconfittoAvni Yildirim (21-2, 12 KO)mediante decisione di scissione tecnica (96-94 X 2 per Dirrell, 98-92 per Yildirim) per il vacante WBC Super Middleweight World Championship nell'evento principale dei Premier Boxing Champions su FS1 e FOX Deportes dall'Armory a Minneapolis. L'arbitro Mark Nelson ha interrotto la gara al decimo round a causa di uno scontro accidentale di teste e di un taglio sull'occhio sinistro di Dirrell con la decisione che andava alle scorecard.

“Ero arrabbiato con l'interruzione perché volevo finire la lotta come un campione,” , ha detto Dirrell. “È fantastico riavere la mia cintura WBC. Vogliamo unirci contro Caleb Plant o uno qualsiasi dei campioni. Vado solo a casa, prenditi un po 'di tempo, parla con il mio campo e poi andremo da lì. Se la battaglia di Benavidez viene chiamata, allora lo combatterò.

“Pensavo di vincere questa battaglia con più di quello che avevano i giudici,” ha aggiunto Dirrell. “Lo stavo colpendo e lui stava esercitando una certa pressione, ma è proprio quello che fa. Ho vinto la battaglia però e questo è tutto ciò che conta.”

Nativo di Minneapolis Jamal James (25-1, 12 KO) ha segnato una vittoria ad eliminazione diretta tecnica gradita dal pubblico Janer Gonzalez (19-2-1, 15 KO). A metà della sesta strofa, James sembrava abbandonare Gonzalez con un destro dritto dritto, ma l'arbitro Gary Miezwa lo ha dichiarato uno slittamento. Verso la fine del sesto round, James ha atterrato un altro atterramento e questa volta ha contato e ha ferito Gonzalez. Alla fine del sesto round, Gonzalez è andato al suo angolo e non è mai uscito con la lotta dichiarata interruzione del sesto round poiché Gonzalez non è stato in grado di rispondere alla campana per il settimo round.

“Questa è la migliore folla a cui abbia mai combattuto,” disse James. “Abbiamo imballato questo posto. Mezzo inverno, neve tutt'intorno a noi e sono comunque venuti fuori e hanno mostrato molto supporto. Non riesco nemmeno a spiegare la sensazione di venire qui e fermarmi (Gonzalez). L'unica domanda che ho è dov'è la mia cintura? Sono al terzo posto nella WBA. Keith Thurman ha ottenuto la cintura, Pacquiao ha ottenuto la cintura. Ma in tutta onestà, chiunque mi dia questa opportunità, io intervengo con loro.

“Mi ha dato una grande battaglia, ma alla fine della giornata avevo troppo da offrire e lui non poteva rialzarsi,” ha continuato James. “Ho mantenuto il mio raggio d'azione e sono stato in grado di contrastarlo. E quando stava entrando, stava entrando in modo selvaggio e si stava aprendo per alcuni pezzi grossi che ho potuto sfruttare. La prima volta che è caduto ho pensato che fosse un atterramento legittimo, ma l'arbitro era un buon rif. L'ho sicuramente catturato con una buona combinazione e un brutto colpo al corpo per il secondo atterramento. Dopo di che, Sapevo che gli aveva tolto il resto della lotta e tutto quello che dovevo fare era finire il lavoro.”

“Pensavo che questa fosse una battaglia molto importante per la mia carriera,” Ha detto Gonzalez. “Ero così felice per questa lotta, semplicemente non è andata a modo mio. Combatterò di nuovo, anche se. Ogni combattimento è un'esperienza di apprendimento per me.”

L'incontro di apertura di FS1 e FOX Deportes è stato caratterizzato da una combattuta rivincita traJeison Rosario (18-1-1, 13 KO) e Marcos Hernandez (13-2-1, 3 KO). Nel febbraio del 2018, i due hanno combattuto per un pareggio. Nella rivincita, Rosario è stato in grado di assicurarsi un ko tecnico con l'arbitro Celestino Ruiz che interrompe l'azione 2:45 nel nono fotogramma. Al momento dell'arresto del gioco, Hernandez era in testa alla classifica del giudice Kyle Shiely (77-75) con Rosario in vantaggio sui punteggi dei giudici John Mariano e Tim Taggart (78-74, 77-75).

“Ha abbassato la guardia e ha continuato a fare gli stessi errori,” disse Rosario. “Quando ho visto l'opportunità, L'ho lasciato cadere.

“La prima volta che abbiamo litigato non ero pronto,” ha aggiunto Rosario. “Ero debole. Ma ho imparato dal primo combattimento cosa fare nel secondo. È così che l'ho portato fuori.”

“È stata una lotta serrata che sarebbe potuta andare in entrambi i modi,” Ha detto Hernandez. “Mi ha colpito con un buon tiro. Mi sono alzato e mi sono sentito a posto. Stavo solo cercando di schivare alcuni colpi e mi ha colpito con un sinistro. Stava sparando e avrei dovuto ribattere indietro.

“Penso che l'arbitro abbia interrotto la lotta in anticipo, ma non è il mio lavoro,” ha continuato Hernandez. “Darei sicuramente il benvenuto a un terzo incontro con Rosario, anche se. Non ho mai avuto paura di combattere nessuno, quindi combatterlo una terza volta non sarebbe affatto un problema.”

Nei Premier Boxing Champions su preliminari FS2, Bryant Perrella (16-2, 13 KO) ha vinto una decisione unanime (78-74, 79-73 X 2) su Breidis Prescott (31-16, 22 KO).

“Sono molto contento della mia prestazione di stasera,” Detto Perrella. “Mi sono sentito benissimo andando lontano. La mia resistenza è stata fantastica. Sarei stato molto più aggressivo e avrei lanciato colpi più duri, ma mi sono fatto male alla mano nel secondo round e mi ha fatto male il resto della lotta. Ho appena usato il mio jab e ring generale per controllare il combattimento e ottenere la vittoria.”

La sega co-caratteristica di FS2 Money Powell IV (9-0, 5 KO) fermare Javier Frazier (8-9-1, 4 KO) per KO tecnico al terzo turno (2:03). Powell atterrò 86 pugni nell'incontro, 36 di cui erano al corpo di Frazier.

“In questo campo di allenamento abbiamo davvero lavorato su molti colpi del corpo,” disse Powell. “Mi sento come se i colpi del corpo siano trascurati al giorno d'oggi e che i colpi del corpo paghino i conti, abbatterti molto velocemente.”

Nell'incontro swing con FS2, Austin Dulay (13-1, 10 KO) ha segnato un atterramento al primo turno molto veloce di Yardley Cruz (24-13, 14 KO) prima di passare a un arresto del terzo round (:27).

“Ho appena ascoltato i miei allenatori e mi hanno detto di essere un cane e di farsi avanti,” disse Dulay. “Pensavo di averlo fermato con quel primo atterramento dopo la campana di apertura, ma non volevo precipitarmi in nulla perché ha un sacco di esperienza.

“Voglio subito una rivincita con Chris Colbert in aprile 13 carta qui all'Armeria,” ha aggiunto Dulay. “Sono tornato al campo dopo quella perdita, capito cosa c'era che non andava, ho un nutrizionista e sono passato a 135 libbre. Mi sento meglio che mai, quindi sono decisamente pronto per quella rivincita.”
