Here is what the fighters had to say Wednesday from the Huntingon Center:
ROBERT PÁSCOA
We’ve had a real tough camp. Every day I’ve been pushed by team and I thank them for that. They put me in the position that I need to be in.
I understand that Shafikov is a really tough fighter. They’ve always said the guy in front of me is tough. I’m not here to talk about all the close fights he’s almost won. I will be the first man to stop him.
“De onde eu venho, we don’t play games. Especially when it comes to somebody taking something from us. We’re not going to let that happen.
I’m thankful for everyone that came out here and everyone who helped put this great card together. I’m just excited to get there in the ring and stand next to him.
I have an advantage in reach, but Shafikov is a tough opponent who’s coming to fight. I’m going to show-off my skills and be the first to stop him.
I just have to be me. If you’ve ever seen me fight, you can see that I always stay composed. You’ll see the same thing in the ring na sexta-feira.
When you get in that ring, it’s only me and him. These great fans can’t help me, only my fists. I’m focused on taking control of the fight. I know how to adjust and be a professional in there if I have to.
It’s been eight tough weeks of training camp and I can’t wait to have this beautiful city behind me. No June 30, it’ll be man down!”
DENIS SHAFIKOV
I believe that this is my time. It’s my third title fight and this will be the time that I take home the belt and reach my dream.
“eu dou 100 percent every time I step into the ring. I know that this will be an exciting fight but I also know that I have to do whatever it takes to win the title.
I’ve been able to bounce back after my last two title defeats and make myself a better fighter each time. You will see that na sexta-feira night and I will be victorious.
JULIAN WILLIAMS
I appreciate everyone coming out to support the fight. This is really a great card. I watch Robert a lot on television and I can see that the fans here are really supporting him. I’m looking forward to an excited crowd.
Joshua Conley and myself will put on a really good fight, and I expect to come out on top and get back in that win column.
I’m ready to challenge anybody in the division and I’m going to show that I’m back on the right track this Friday night.
JOSHUA CONLEY
I’ve put in the hard work during camp to get a big victory and put myself on the map in the 154-pound division.
I know that I’m fighting a really good fighter. This is my opportunity and if I knock Julian Williams out, I’ll be right in the mix with the best super welterweights in the world.

Szpilka and Kownacki spoke to press at Krolewski Jadlo Restaurant in Greenpoint, Brooklyn before heading to Johnny’s Café in Queens for a meet and greet with fans.
Aqui está o que os participantes tinham a dizer Quarta-feira:
ARTUR PIN
Everything has been different this training camp. I’m focused on training for Adam Kownacki. I’ve lost some weight and I feel faster. Everything is feeling perfect.
I want to show the world and my country that what happened in the Wilder fight was an accident. I feel ready and I can’t wait.
The sparring has been perfect for this camp. I have two great sparring partners who are giving me different looks and getting me ready for Adam. I’m glad that I’ve been pushed really hard in sparring.
I’m not worried about fighting in his hometown. I’m only focused on the man who is in front of me. It’s my job to go in there and take care of the man trying to knock me out.
I have heard the talk from Kownacki about my chin, but there is nothing that he can say once we’re in the ring. Em Julho 15 everyone will see my power and it will verify that I am the better fighter.
We have talked a lot today, mas sobre Julho 15 only our fists can talk and I can’t wait to perform in front everyone. I will show the whole world that I am ready for another shot at the world title.
ADAM Kownacka
I’m feeling great right now. I was in Poland for four weeks to spar with Tomasz Adamek and I think that helped me a lot. Now I’m back here with my team to finish up camp and work on preparing for a tough southpaw.
I think I’ll be able to control my emotions on fight night. This is another fight in my long career. I have to go and do my best. This is a big step on my way to becoming a world champion and making my dreams come true.
“Eu acho que os estilos fazem lutas. My style is perfect for his style. I come forward and bring pressure and he’s been dropped so many times, I think his chin is probably gone. It’s hard to recuperate from a knockout like he had against Wilder.
We’ve been working on everything we can in the gym. Knowing how to cut off the ring against a lefty is definitely very important. I’m getting better every day and with every sparring session. I’ll be ready on Julho 15.”
This is a big chance for me to shine. I wish Artur all the success in the world, but it’s my time right now. Julho 15 you will see a great fight.
Ronnie Shields, Treinador do Pin
Artur is at the level where he’ll fight anybody in the world. We know how god Adam is. It’s going to be skill against skill.
Training camp has been going great for Artur. He’s been having some really good sparring with some strong fighters who can simulate what Adam is going to do.
Szpilka is in great shape right now, he’s ready to go. We’re going to make sure he doesn’t make the same mistake from the Wilder fight. He’s watched the tape and he knows what to do.
KEITH TRIMBLE, Kownacki’s Trainer
I’m thankful that Adam has this opportunity. I grew up on Long Island so it’s a dream come true to be a part of this event.
“Esta vai ser uma grande luta para os fãs. The way people get behind their soccer teams, we will see that on Julho 15 from the Polish fans. It’s going to be a hell of a night.
Adam is training so hard and he’s ready to go the distance. We’re ready for a war. Artur fought for a title recently so we couldn’t ask for a better fight. If we get this win, there are big things ahead for us.
Lou DiBella, Presidente da DiBella Entertainment
It’s great to be here in Greenpoint where there is such a great Polish population and they understand the significance of this fight. This is the biggest fight you could make between two Polish heavyweights.
Artur was a lifelong resident of Poland, who now has ties in Houston training with Ronnie Shields, while Adam is on the rise as an American Polish kid from Brooklyn and now living on Long Island. This is the first time in 31 years that there will be a big show on Long Island. Anybody that knows boxing knows that this is going to be a great fight.
The winner of this fight is right there contending in the heavyweight division. Artur fought a great fight against Deontay Wilder before getting caught. They’re both warriors. This is a chance for Adam to prove himself. This fight has been brewing for a long time and there is a lot of pride at stake here.

BELÉM, PA. (Junho 28, 2017) – Miguel Cruz (16-0, 11 KOs) ganhou uma decisão unânime para derrotar Alex Martin (13-2, 5 KOs) e permaneceu invicto em uma revanche dos meio-médios que encabeçou Premier Boxe dos Campeões TERÇA TOE-de-toe em FS1 eBoxe dos Campeões na Fox Deportes Terça-feira noite do Sands Bethlehem Events Center em Belém, Pa.
Depois de vencer uma decisão dividida contra Martin no confronto de janeiro, Cruz manteve seu recorde perfeito intacto ao marcar dois knockdowns antes de tomar a decisão em seu confronto de 10 rounds.
“Sinceramente, não me senti bem na nossa primeira luta e quando re-assisti, Eu pensei que Martin ganhou,” disse Cruz. “Isso me fez treinar cada vez mais do que nunca para provar que tenho as habilidades e o poder para competir em nível mundial, e acho que fiz isso hoje à noite.”
Cruz começou rápido ao acertar um enorme gancho de esquerda que pegou Martin e o derrubou no final do primeiro round. Martin conseguiu se levantar e se recuperar pouco antes do sino soar para encerrar a rodada.
Martin continuou tentando trabalhar por dentro, mas Cruz estava determinado a empurrar para trás e aterrissou consistentemente com grandes tiros de força. Outro gancho de esquerda na quarta rodada mandou Martin para o tatame novamente, embora ele parecesse menos afetado do que durante o primeiro knockdown.
“Eu estava lutando contra sua luta hoje à noite,” disse Martin. “Eu simplesmente não tive meu melhor desempenho. O primeiro knockdown foi um knockdown real, mas no segundo knockdown ele me acertou na parte de trás da cabeça.”
A quinta rodada viu Martin começar a boxear de forma mais eficaz, pousando várias mãos direitas antes de um gancho de esquerda cair baixo, mandando Cruz para a lona e fazendo com que o árbitro Gary Rosato interrompesse a luta enquanto Cruz se recuperava.
Quando a ação recomeçou, Martin continuou a virar a maré da luta. Seu movimento foi muito eficaz e seu sucesso com a mão esquerda foi consistente ao longo das rodadas de cinco a oito.
“Martin foi super difícil,” disse Cruz. “Eu não achava que ele conseguiria sair da segunda rodada, mas ele definitivamente me deu problemas. Eu estava tentando impedi-lo.”
Abaixo no placar por causa dos knockdowns iniciais, O esforço de retorno de Martin foi curto, pois Cruz conseguiu segurar Martin nas duas últimas rodadas a caminho de ganhar a decisão aos olhos de todos os três juízes pela pontuação de 96-92.
“Eu sabia que estava voltando para a luta, mas não estou dando desculpas hoje à noite,” disse Martin. “Ele ganhou a luta justa e quadrada, parabéns para ele.”
“Treinei para o Martin como se ele fosse o campeão do mundo e é assim que vou treinar para cada luta da minha carreira,” disse Cruz. “Foi uma luta tremenda, Estou feliz por ter conseguido a vitória. Eu só quero voltar para Porto Rico e comemorar meu aniversário amanhã.”
Ação televisionada adicional viu Clarence Booth (15-3, 8 KOs) parar Porto Rico Mercado Antônio (10-3, 9 KOs) na quarta rodada de sua competição meio-médio.
O mais alto Mercado teve sucesso no início da luta, enquanto Booth tentava entrar e atacar o corpo. Mercado acertou um par de mãos direitas limpas em cada uma das duas primeiras rodadas que pareciam atordoar Booth.
“Ele era um lutador duro,” disse Booth. “Eu precisava me soltar para as primeiras rodadas. Fiquei tenso no começo.”
Lutando fora de St. Petersburg, Florida, Booth foi capaz de resistir à tempestade nas duas primeiras rodadas e começou a virar a maré na terceira rodada com uma direita limpa que cambaleou Mercado.
Booth manteve o ritmo e rapidamente colocou Mercado na tela com um par de mãos direitas na quarta rodada. Mercado conseguiu ficar de pé, mas eventualmente Booth rompeu novamente e surpreendeu Mercado com mais mãos direitas. A agitação final levou o árbitro Eric Dali a interromper a luta 1:30 no quarto quadro.
“Eu tive algumas perdas difíceis, mas agora estou em um grande retorno,” disse Booth. “Estou muito feliz por ter esta oportunidade na televisão e fiz o melhor possível. Meu promotor Marshall Kauffman e a King's Promotions me darão ótimas oportunidades no futuro.”
“Ele me acertou com um bom tiro,” said Mercado. “Ele espetou e veio com a mão direita que eu não vi chegando. Voltarei ainda melhor.”

Indio, TAL COMO (Junho 26, 2017) – South Texas de Omar “O Panterita” Figueroa, a former lightweight world champion, heads into training camp on a balmy 118-degree day in Indio, TAL COMO, home to his trainer Joel Diaz and his new boxing home-base since January. Figueroa re-enters the boxing ring on Sábado, Julho 15 when he takes on former multiple-division world champion Robert “The Ghost” Guerreiro in the 147-pound main event of Premier Boxing Champions on FOX and FOX Deportes em 8 p.m. E/5 p.m. PT in the first boxing event at the newly-renovated NYCB LIVE, home of the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum.
The break that Figueroa took saw him embracing his Weslaco, Texas home, which sits right on the border to Mexico. It was a reset that had been coming for a fighter who fought in both Mexico and the U.S. as an amateur before turning pro after his first semester in college.
Boxing is a very jealous sport. You do it 100% or you don’t do it at all,” said Figueroa explaining his 18-month break from the ring. “After my last fight I felt that I needed a breaktime to be a father, a son, a brother and a friend. I needed the time to heal my body, mind and soul. I fought with broken hands, I fought world-class athletes; having fought since I was 6, I wanted to take a break and just be human. So I took a year off to heal from the injuries, be with my family and friends, be a father and just be me.
It’s a break that Diaz, who Figueroa first trained with three years ago, agrees with. The two made a plan during his break to have the young fighter come from his Weslaco, TX home to California for an extended training period in preparation for his next fight, as well as set up his camp.
It’s necessary to take time off,” disse Diaz. “Sometimes fighters work too hard in training or in the action that they bring to the fights. Omar is the type of fighter that brings a lot of action to his fights and it takes a toll on his body. He’s an all-out fighter so he needs that time off to recuperate and restart himself. This break in his body and mind helped him recover from that strain so that he could come back and start fresh again. “
Figueroa faces a tough opponent in Robert Guerrero when he steps back in the ring. Not only is Figueroa fighting above his normal weight-class, but he’s also fighting a former world champion across multiple weight-classes known to be a tough and cunning opponent.
Guerrero is one of the toughest challenges for any boxer. He is a tough fighter, he doesn’t back down and he doesn’t quit,” Disse Figueroa. “You have to go into the fight knowing it’ll go the full 12 rounds and there won’t be any easy moment in the fight. But I’m prepared for that, it’s what I’ve been training for and it’s who I am.
I’m excited and grateful to be part of bringing boxing back to the Nassau Veterans Coliseum and I plan to set a high standard. When you have fights in this arena, you know they are going be memorable,” added Figueroa.
See below for additional quotes from Figueroa and Diaz:
Omar Figueroa quotes:
On changing camp to Indio, CA and working with Joel Diaz:
Janeiro 1 I was back in the boxing mode. Training, encontro, focusing on diet and getting ready and into camp. The break has given me more focus and the opportunity to change my camp up.
I am back training with Joel Diaz in Indio, CA and have been going back to Texas to see my family. My dad will always be my father and a big part of my career, but I felt that when I ended my break, I wanted to change my program and go back to Joel. This is our first fight back and I’m looking forward to it in many ways.
No acampamento de treinamento:
My health and the time training have been great. I’m getting more and more excited for the fight as I’m getting prepared for it. It’s on my mind.
“Eu sou mais velho, I’m wiser, I have been through this before and know what not to do. It’s the wisdom that comes with experience.
On taking time off:
It bought me the tranquility and peace of mind that I’m good, I’m healthy, I’m ready for this. This is what I want. I was missing this. I’ve never been more mentally ready for a fight than now.
On his future:
I don’t plan ahead; I don’t look to next fights. I look at the now and think about future fights after this one. I want to make sure I’m healthy.
I don’t get ahead of myself with boxing. I am a boxer, um ex-campeão do mundo, I love and believe in the power of this sport, but I don’t let it rule my life.
On training with his brother, Brandon Figueroa, em Indio:
It helps me, we push each other. My family is very competitive so it helps to have someone like that training with me. It helps to have Brandon here as well as my cousins; we push each other to the limits. We live together, we train together, and we make sure we are the best we can be.
On fighting for the first time in New York and his expectations:
This is my first time fighting in New York, I expect the New York crowd to be ready for a good fight, because that’s what they’ll see from me.
I want to be known for good shows. It’s what we get paid to do as fighters. I showcase the technical side of boxing and add a lot of entertainment behind how I fight, so that’s what the fans get.
The role that Mexico, Texas and California play in his career;
I feel like I get the best of all the worlds. I love MexicoI go there all the time; I plan to go there after the fight. I love California, it’s taught me a lot, o povo, the culture, the boxing here is phenomenal; and obviously Texas is where I grew up and it’s made me who I am. I love the opportunities that I get and the things I get to do, who I get to do it with and where I get to do it. “
Joel Diaz, Figueroa’s Trainer:
On Training Camp:
“Campo de treinamento foi indo muito bem, we’ve had no problems like we have had in previous camps with injuries. His hands are healthy, his weight is good and overall he’s healthy. I think the layoff he took helped him a lot, he wants to get back in it and you can tell he’s motivated. It’s a great camp, great atmosphere and that’s what matters.
On what he’s focusing on:
Omar Figueroa is a fighter. He’s never going to change. My job is not to change him but make him better. He has a unique style that shows to everyone he’s a very effective puncher and it’s my job to get him in the right condition so he gets hit less, because he’s a risk taker. You wont see much change on the style, you’ll see the same action Omar that people want to see.
On training both brothers
They push each other; Omar being the oldest really pushes his brother. They train in two different weight classes and it’s good that they see the work they do amongst each other. They push each other in conditioning and in the ring. It’s good having them together.
On his role as trainer:
I’m in this sport for the fighters, my pride and my work. I take a lot of pride in what I do and I am not trying to fight for a trophy nor am I in it for myself. I’m in it for my fighters. This is work and I’m here to take full responsibility for the fighters in my program. I’m here to make my fighters champions in life, not just the ring.
It took me years of hard work and effort, and now that I’m here I have to work harder, keep my same values and work to stay there.

LAS VEGAS (Junho 21, 2017) – Invicto Eddie Ramirez (17-0, 11 KOs) ganhou uma vitória decisão dividida sobre Erick Óssea (16-5, 8 KOs) no evento principal de Premier Boxe dos Campeões TERÇA TOE-de-toe em FS1 e Boxe dos Campeões na Fox Deportes Terça-feira night from Sam’s Town live in Las Vegas.
Representing Chicago, Ramirez controlled the fight early by working off of his jab and attacking with both hands on the inside. Bone was able to consistently throw counters back, but Ramirez showed good defensive skills throughout the night, never taking serious punishment.
I was comfortable in the ring hoje à noite,” said Ramirez. “I remain unbeaten. I put the pressure on and I got the win. I think the fans will start to see me more and more.
Ramirez began to break through the guard of Bone and had him in trouble in round four before Bone found his composure and finished the round. The second half of the fight saw Bone increase his movement, which seemed to frustrate Ramirez, who was looking to engage and deliver a knockout.
He made it a little difficult because he wasn’t cooperating,” said Ramirez. “He was running around the ring, but I am proud of my performance. I won and that’s all that matters. I’m going to get back in the ring and get back to training until I get word on my next fight.
Bone finished the fight strong and believed he did enough to earn the decision.
“Eu não concordo com a decisão,” disse Osso. “I am frustrated because I feel I won, however the judges saw it differently. I thought I landed more punches and I just don’t see how they came to the decision that was made. He was a good fighter, tough opponent, but again I believe the wrong decision was made hoje à noite.”
After the 10-round welterweight contest concluded it was Ramirez who was awarded the decision with scores of 97-93 duas vezes, while one judge saw the bout 97-93 for Bone.
I want whoever is next,” said Ramirez. “I’m ready for whoever can get me closer to a title shot.
Ação televisionada adicional viu Xavier Martinez (8-0, 4 KOs) keep his perfect record intact by earning a shutout unanimous decision against previously unbeaten Prince Smalls (11-1-1, 4 KOs) in their eight-round featherweight contest.
While Smalls had the reach advantage and was dedicated to his jab throughout the bout, Martinez was consistently aggressive and was able to navigate the distance and punish Smalls with hooks to the head and body.
I knew the one advantage he had going into this fight was his height,” , disse Martinez. “But once I got in the ring I saw quickly that he was leaving his body open so I just went in and tried to deliver as many combos and hit the body as much as I could.
Martinez landed big power punches all night, including a pinpoint right cross that connected with Smalls at the end of round four. A clean left hook staggered Smalls in round seven as Martinez spent the round punishing his opponent, who was barely able to stay on his feet and finish the frame.
After another dominant round to close out the bout, Martinez was awarded the decision by the score of 80-71 em todos os três juízes’ scorecards.
I wanted the knockout and I think the fans could tell,” , disse Martinez. “This is my first fight this year, so it’s back in the gym for me as I look to my next opponent. I’ll definitely be ready for anyone.
The opening bout of the telecast saw lightweight prospect Dennis Galarza (16-2, 9 KOs) record his third straight victory via a unanimous decision over Mexico’s Omar Tienda (18-5, 11 KOs) in their 10-round contest.
The taller Galarza used his length early and landed clean hooks on the inside during round one. Tienda came out in round two intent on making it a rough fight and crowding Galarza to negate his reach advantage.
I give my performance about a 7.5,” Disse Galarza. “I knew I was coming into the ring with a tough rugged veteran Mexican fighter and he used that to his advantage, I should have used my jab more.
Galarza continued to have success with his left hook throughout the night, while Tienda was able to slow down Galarza’s offense in the middle rounds with a relentless body attack. Much of the battle took place in close quarters and in round nine Tienda was deducted a point by referee Robert Byrd for throwing Galarza to the canvas.
After 10-rounds of hard-fought action, Galarza’s clean work and good movement in the late rounds helped him earn a unanimous decision by scores of 100-89, 99-90 e 98-91.
There was a lot of holding, but it didn’t really affect my plan,” Disse Galarza. “I wanted the knockout going in but I’m just happy I got the win unanimously. I need to get back in the gym and work on really using my jab and uppercut more and I think that will help me going into the next fight.
