Also on the bill will be two more Roc Nation fighters that are managed by Victory Sports & Entertainment in undefeated prospects, супер лёгкі SONNY Фредриксон і ў полулегком TYLER MCCREARY.

Arias (15-0, 7 КО) Мілўокі, was a highly touted amateur who was a 2008 і 2010 national champion, and he will be will be looking for his first professional title and a ranking in the IBF.

In Cunningham, Arias is fighting a 14 year veteran who has wins over former world title challengers Antwun Echols and Rubin Williams.

This will be the 2nd consecutive fight for the 26 year-old Arias in his hometown where he has proven to be a bona fide attraction and ticket seller.

На Чэрвеня 4, Arias stopped Jorge Silva in three rounds at the same venue and had Milwaukee fight fans eager for him to return.

Fredrickson of Toledo has a record of 13-0 з дзевяццю накаўтамі, will make his third start of 2016.

The 22 year-old power puncher, recently identified by Ring Magazine as one of the new faces to keep an eye on in the sport, continues to develop as he will take on the tough veteran Ramesis Gil.

Gil has wins over previously undefeated Carney Bowman & Luis Joel Gonzales.

The speedy and highly skilled McCreary, Таксама ў Таледа, Агаё мае рэпутацыю 10-0 with six knockouts and like Fredrickson, will be making his third appearance of 2016.

“These are three of the brightest prospects in boxing, і ў “Cuba’s” case, it is time for him to make a move to the next level. We feel he is getting better everyday under John David Jackson, and with a win he becomes a legitimate contender in the middleweight division. The fights will only get bigger from here for “Куба”, his time is now and we’re confident that he will become a force in the middleweight division for years to come. Sonny and Tyler are coming along very nicely. They are getting the right fights and getting much needed experience as they continue in their development. Gil is a capable opponent, who should provide Sonny a good test, while Wisdom should be a good learning experience for Tyler, after that, we will look to step them up with each fight.

Del Valle left hook.jpg

ФОТА КРЭДЫТ: Roc Nation Спорт

Вашынгтон, Акруга Калумбія (Мая 14, 2016) - 122 pound contender Luis “Orlandito” Del Valle (22-2, 16 КО) з Bayamon, Puerto Rico scored a clear-cut, eight-round unanimous decision over local southpaw Thomas “KO” Snow (18-3, 12 КО) у пятніцу, Мая 13 у DC Armory ў Вашынгтоне, D.C.
Fighting on Roc Nation Sports’ Throne Boxing on BET, Del Valle looked to set the tone by pressuring the DC-based Snow in the opening round. У другім, the former NABA featherweight champion landed a number of straight right hands, including one that sent Snow down hard. Sensing that a knockout may be imminent, Del Valle swarmed Snow but he made it out of the round.
The third saw Del Valle land a picture perfect left hook that dropped Snow again, who effectively tied up after tasting the canvas. Del Valle continued to press the action in the fourth and fifth stanzas, while Snow began moving his hands but still held frequently. Snow found moments of success in the sixth and had his best round in the seventh, during which he connected with a hard shot that got an off balance Del Valle’s attention. Still gunning for a knockout, Del Valle pushed the action in the eighth however, Snow tied him up on multiple occasions and finished on his feet.
While most fans and ringsiders had Del Valle winning at least six rounds, the scores were surprisingly 76-74 на ўсіх трох паказчыкаў.
"Thomas Snow was a very game fighter and I tip my hat off to him for being a tough competitor,” Del Valle said shortly after the victory. “I would’ve liked to have finished him, but he was constantly tying me up. I thought the referee would’ve warned him or taken a point, but that didn’t happen. This fight was a good learning experience and like JAY Z says ‘it’s onto the next one.’”
With Snow out of his way, Del Valle’s sights are set on bigger opportunities.
"I want to get my hands on one of the champions or top contenders at 122 фунты. Ever since I started boxing, my goal was to become a world champion. I’m hoping to have the chance to fight for one of the belts soon because there’s nothing I want more than to bring a world title belt back to Puerto Rico.”

King’s Promotions Thomas “KO” Snow ready for statement win over Del Valle Friday night in Washington, Акруга Калумбія

Пакінуць каментар
Вашынгтон, Акруга Калумбія (Мая 12, 2016)– У гэтую пятніцу night in Washington, Акруга Калумбія, Томас снег will meet Luis Orlando Del Valle (21-2, 16 КО) in the co-feature bout of nationally televised show live on BET.

The show is promoted by Roc Nation Sports.

Snow of Washington, DC has a record of 18-2 з 12 knockouts and this is a big opportunity fighting on a big platform.
“Трэніравальны лагер прайшло выдатна. It was a perfect camp and now it is time to do something, and I am going out there to get the win.”
Asked what he knew about Del Valle, Snow did know much other than some basic information.
“Del Valle is a conventional fighter from Puerto Rico. He has a similar record, but hasn’t fought many good guys. I saw his fight with (былы чэмпіён свету) Vic Darchinyan. (A fight that Del Valle lost via unanimous decision in 2012).
This is a fight that most boxing experts believe is a crossroads fight, with the winner leaping into contention, but Snow does not feel the pressure of the fight.

“I think he has more to lose then me. I am moving up two weight classes. I would prefer to be fighting at 115 фунты, but the opportunities have been coming at higher weights. З гэтым, як гаворыцца, I don’t think he is on my level. So I am confident in this fight and the win will be an awesome breakthrough.”
Despite fighting in his hometown, Snow does not think that plays any part in who will win the fight.
“There is no advantage to that. In boxing, it just takes one punch and that crowd I not help that.”
“I know what I did in training camp and I am prepared. I am not fearful of any man. God blessed me with skills and I am going to do the work. I just know by keeping God in your life, everything will go great for you.”
Said Snow’s promoter, Marshall Kauffman of King’s Promotions, “This is a great opportunity for Thomas. He has shown throughout his career that he has talent. His only losses have been to undefeated guys, but he has had a tremendous camp, і у пятніцу night he will show that he should be one of the top contenders in the super bantamweight division”

After shadow boxing around the ring and a few rounds working the bags, all five fighters participated in interviews with invited media members.

 

Below is what the fighters had to say during the workout:

 

Пыльная Эрнандэс-Харысан:

“I think a lot of people are underestimating Mike Dallas Jr. I think they’re counting him out too early. A lot of times when people come back from a tough loss they train harder, they take it more seriously and erase all the mistakes they made in previous training camps, so that’s what I’m expecting him to do. Luckily Barry Hunter [Hernandez-Harrison’s trainer] knows him well as a fighter, so I’ve been going off of what he says.

“I’ve been getting great sparring in. I came home from sparring Canelo Alvarez and went right into to sparring with Lamont Peterson, Осцін Траут, Demetrius Hopkins and other fighters on the card. Just really good sparring.

 

“I’m excited to fight on BET. It’s pretty cool. I think it’s good to bring boxing to a new audience. З надзеяй, I put on a good fight to get them entertained. And we have Justine Skye performing before our bout. She’s got a completely different fan base than I do and I think it’s another good way to add a new audience to our event.

 

“I took a lot of things out of training with Canelo at his training camp. It was good to get a different perspective of a training camp. Usually it’s all about me, everything is catered to me and everyone is concerned about me, so it was good to take a step back and see how someone like him at the top level prepares for a world title fight. Luckily, I walked away knowing I’ve been doing everything right.

 

“Fighting in my hometown of Washington, D.C. is better for me. I feel like I have more to fight for. I have more to lose, which for me helps. You’ll never hear me say “no mas” in D.C.

 

“At my age, my preparation changes with every fight. I remember fighting in Connecticut in April then Miami in August, which seems really close, but Billy Briscoe [Hernandez-Harrison’s assistant trainer] was there and said ‘you’ve gotten so much stronger.’ That’s just the age that I am right now. I’m really maturing and getting that man strength. Every fight I feel a lot stronger.”

 

 

MIKE “THE SILENT ASSASSIN” DALLAS JR.:

“I feel very good ahead of this fight…confident and strong. I’m just ready to go out there and perform. There’s more pressure on him than me fighting in his hometown.

 

“I’ve gotten good training in for this fight. The Bay Area has a lot of good sparring out there right now. I had good training with Ben Bautista [Dallas Jr.’s trainer] and we’ve been pushing it. I had to dig deep in training to get through it and I’m ready to dig deep in the fight.

 

“I took some time off to let my body rest and heal and to let my mind get together. Now I feel great. I’m ready to come back and get back on top of things. I’m going to go out there and do my thing.

 

“I know Dusty is a pretty good fighter. I know he can box. I’m just ready to go out there, be smart and execute the game plan. I’m ready for people to know I’m back and there mentally. I’m ready to get back in the game and take care of these people in these bigger fights.”

 

 

THOMAS “KO” SNOW:

“I know my opponent [Orlando Del Valle] is a conventional fighter from Puerto Rico. He’s a basic fighter…a basic one-two puncher. He’s the best opponent I’ve faced to date. Both of us have two losses, so I know it’s a crossroads fight for us. We’re going to go in there and do what we came to do.

“I’ve fought in D.C. a lot of times. It’s my home.

 

“It’s awesome because I’ve known Dusty since he was six years old. We used to run together. We were just talking about that over in the corner. If you watch at any of his amateur fights, you’ll hear me in the background cheering him on. I’ve been in his life for a long time and it’s awesome seeing a young guy get his opportunity and make the sport of boxing grow.

 

“I know our amateur program in D.C. is awesome so you have to give a shout out to all the amateurs. D.C. is about to be the mecca of boxing once again. We will have six, seven or eight champions in the District of Columbia. It’s rich with boxing.

 

“I think fighting on BET is a great thing. I think it’s great that boxing is on free TV now and people don’t have to pay for it. For those people who can’t afford those things, I think it’s awesome for them and I think it will make the sport of boxing better.

 

“I’ve changed a lot over the years. I’m supposed to be dead, locked up or in jail. Having God in your life, your perspective of life and everything changes. I’m calm and comfortable in my situation. I thank God for the opportunity. I thank Roc Nation Sports for the opportunity and I thank everybody who is supporting Thomas “KO” Snow. We’re ready to do it.”

 

 

MIKE BALOGUN:

“During my career, when I was playing football, I used boxing as another form of training for cardio. After my career was over, it was natural for me to keep training and now we’re here. Football is a business. I got released and had another opportunity to play in the Canadian Football League as well as the Arena Football League, but football takes a toll on your body and I played the game for a long time. It was just natural for me to transition. I still needed something to stay active, because without activity, I didn’t feel like myself.

 

"Я не ведаю шмат пра маю суперніка [Дэвон мослы]. I know he’s a southpaw just like me That’s pretty much all I know and all I need to know.

 

“I’ve prepared for this fight just like any other fight…hard work and dedicating myself to my craft. At the end of the day I’ll reap the fruits of my labor.”

 

 

SAM “VANILLA GORILLA” CROSSED:

"Я не ведаю шмат пра маю суперніка [Damion Reed]. I know he is a tall left-handed guy. I only watched a little video of him. I’ve been sparring a lot of left handers and then we just happened to get a left-handed guy, so it worked out pretty well.

 

“I’m still a little disappointed about my last performance in D.C., so I am going to come out and put on a show on Пятніца, Мая 13.

 

“Anyone you get in the ring with poses a threat, але ў той жа час, I am confident in what I have done to prepare. I’ve been sparring guys with 20 пра баі, так, I think I’m good.

 

“I played football and baseball growing up. У асноўным, what got me into boxing was that I got picked on when I was younger and smacked around on the basketball court. I always said when I grow up I want to be able to beat up the dudes that picked on me. What’s funny is that a lot of guys that bullied me are now begging me for tickets to my fights.”

Orlando Del Valle made his professional debut on April 11, 2008 at the Tropicana Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City, New Jersey where he knocked out Rey Rivera in the third round. By October 2009, he had compiled a record of 7-0, including a third-round knockout victory over Christopher Rivera at Coliseo Roberto Clemente in San Juan, Пуэрта-Рыка. Чэрвеня 6, 2011, at Roseland Ballroom in New York City, he notched an impressive ten-round unanimous decision victory over Dat Nguyen in a fight telecast on Showtime’s ShoBox. У Верасні 29, 2012, Даліна, з запісам 16-0, made is HBO debut at the MGM Grand at Foxwoods Resort in Mashantucket, Connecticut against Three-Time World Champion Vic “The Raging Bull” Darchinyan. Darchinyan controlled a majority of the bout, relying on his experience to pressure the young contender. In the ninth round Del Valle’s perseverance almost carried the day when he staggered Darchinyan with a tremendous left hook, badly hurting the former world champion. Darchinyan, аднак, was able to survive the round and hold on for a ten-round unanimous decision victory. After the defeat, Del Valle moved to Mexico City to train with Hall of Fame trainer Nacho Beristain. He rebounded in 2013 with two technical knockout victories over Andre Wilson and Juan Jose Beltran. Мая 31, 2014, in a bout televised by HBO Latino from the Tropicana Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Del Valle faced another tough opponent in undefeated fellow Puerto Rican Luis Rosa. The ten-round, evenly matched fight went the distance producing a memorable, crowd-pleasing battle. У пятым туры, Del Valle sent Rosa to the canvas with a left hook and in the seventh round Rosa was deducted a point for a late punch, but in the end Rosa was awarded a unanimous decision victory. Since the Rosa setback, Del Valle has won all three of his fights, with none of them going the distance, including his last fight on April 9, in which he scored a second round technical knockout win over Josh Crespo at Rockingham Park in Salem, Нью-Гэмпшыр. Del Valle will look to keep that streak going on May 13 against Snow.

 

Deeply rooted in D.C. and the capital community, Томас снег is an experienced fighter with an impressive record of 18-2 (10 КО). Snow, who supplements his boxing earnings by working as a floor technician at Holy Cross Hospital in Silver Spring, Мэрыленд, began boxing at the age of ten at Round One Gym in Capitol Heights, Мэрыленд, compiling a stellar amateur record of 129-10, which included three Washington D.C. Metro Golden Gloves championships. У 2004, he took home the national PAL amateur tournament title in the 119-pound weight class. Лістапада 5, 2005, he made his professional debut with authority, knocking out Ronald Viera in the first round at the Lawrence Joel Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Winston-Salem, Паўночная Караліна. He would go on to win his next nine fights, with seven of those wins coming by way of knockout, before he ran into fellow undefeated prospect and future world title challenger Teon Kennedy who dealt Snow his first professional loss in July of 2008. A streak of six consecutive wins would follow before he suffered another setback, again against an undefeated prospect in Nate Green. Following the defeat, Snow took nearly two and a half years off from boxing. The southpaw returned to the ring on March 6, 2015 and continued to live up to his “KO” moniker with a first round technical knockout win over Christopher Sanchez at the Omar Shrine in Charleston, Паўднёвая Караліна. Snow followed that win with a second round knockout of Tibor Nadori on December 4, 2015 at the Rosecroft Raceway close to home in Fort Washington, Мэрыленд. He now faces a crossroads fight when he takes on Del Valle on May 13.

 

At the age of nineteen, Darmani Rock is already drawing comparisons to former heavyweight greats of the past. Rock has received high praise for his powerful jab and ambidexterity. Standing at 6’4”, he moves with an unparalleled lightness and speed for a fighter his size. Rock earned nation-wide accolades following a banner year in 2014 when he took home the USA Boxing Junior and Youth Open, Youth Continental and Youth World super heavyweight titles. During the 2014 Junior and Youth Open in Reno, Невада, Rock shut out the 2013 National Youth Champion, John Luna, 3-0. This impressive performance was followed by another super heavyweight title at the Youth Continental Championships in March 2014 in Quito, Ecuador where he defeated Argentina’s Kervin Espinola, 3-0. Rock then took home the gold medal at the prestigious World Youth Championships in Bulgaria in April 2014 by a 2-1 decision over Germany’s Peter Kadiru. Rock also took home the 2014 World Junior Amateur Championship and capped off 2014 by being named Philadelphia’s Amateur Boxer of the Year at the annual Briscoe Awards. His most noteworthy win, аднак, came in May 2015 when he beat Cam Awesome, a career amateur who has been called the next Chris Byrd, in Las Vegas for the National Golden Gloves title. Rock also captured the 2015 U.S. National Amateur super heavyweight championship. He ended his amateur career as the number one rated super heavyweight in the United States (and the number five rated super heavyweight in the world) збіраецца 19-5 in national tournaments. His assault on the heavyweight division begins Мая 13 against Black.

 

Rockville, Maryland resident Carlos Black is better known to capitol region boxing as the “DC Diamond Cutter.” Turning professional late in life at the age of thirty, making his professional debut on April 23, 2015 at Tall Cedar’s Hall in Baltimore, Maryland scoring a four-round unanimous decision over the more experienced Lonnie Kornegay. Black, аднак, would fall short of victory in his next three bouts to George Arias on May 8, 2015 at the Prudential Center in Newark, Нью-Джэрсі, to Dennis Benson by a hard-fought four-round split decision in his return to Tall Cedar’s Hall on July 9, 2015 and to Jerry Forrest on September 26, 2015 at the Masonic Temple in Norfolk, Віргінія. Tough like his nickname and propelled by his steadfast will, he believes he can one day fulfill his dream of becoming heavyweight champion of the world. That dream will come a step closer to reality should he defeat the highly touted Rock.

Авэнір Котто is part of the famous Cotto boxing family of Puerto Rico. Legendary Miguel Cotto is a second cousin, while uncles Miguel Cotto Sr. and Evangelista Cotto were pro boxers themselves. Cotto is looking for his second straight win following a loss in a world-title elimination bout against current WBA Super Featherweight World Champion Javier Fortuna. На Мая 13 he faces the vastly experienced Juan Jose Бельтрана who has faced current World Champion Leo Santa Cruz and former World Champions Eric Morel and Rico Ramos.

 

Brooklyn’s unbeaten Junior Younan faces his stiffest test to date on Мая 13 калі ён сутыкаецца з Austin Marcum. Younan returned following a nine-month injury induced layoff on Сакавіка 26 on the Andre Ward vs. Sullivan Barrera undercard by pounding out a four-round unanimous decision over Carlos Lozano. Marcum is riding a four-fight winning streak and plans to take his 20-year-old opponent into unfamiliar territory, as Younan has yet to fight past four rounds.

 

Former Washington Redskin Mike Balogun looks to make it six straight wins since turning professional as a boxer in October of 2014. Balogun was a standout inside linebacker at the University of Oklahoma and spent a year on the Redskins’ roster in 2010. He also played briefly for the Buffalo Bills and San Francisco 49ers before retiring and becoming a full time boxer. Looking to stop Balogun’s rise as a pugilist on Мая 13 will be fellow local fighter Дэвон мослы who is seeking his first professional win.

 

Local favorite Сэм Скрыжаваныя, has limited amateur experience, which his opponent Damion Reed, a 16-fight veteran hopes to exploit. Crossed, who works as bar tender, is expected to have hundreds of supporters behind him as he attempts to go to 3-0. Reed recently lost two hard-fought majority decisions to two cruiserweights and has a draw with Ken Moody.

 

Standing 6’6” and weighing 250 фунты, Кітайскі суперцяжкай адчуванне Чжан Zhilei has shown boxing skills rarely seen in a big man since turning pro in August 2014. Undefeated in eight fights as a professional, Zhilei was a highly-decorated amateur, winning a silver medal in the super-heavyweight division at the 2008 Beijing Summer Olympics, as well as bronze medals at the 2007 world amateur championships and 2009 AIBA world championships. He faces an opponent to be determined on Мая 13.

Hernandez-Harrison vs. Dallas Jr., a 10-round welterweight fight which is presented by Roc Nation Sports takes place Friday, Мая 13, 2016 у DC Armory ў Вашынгтоне, D.C.

In his most recent fight on January 29, 2016, Hernandez-Harrison scored a decisive win over Angel Hernandez via a third round technical knockout at The Belvedere in Elk Grove, Ілінойс. Hernandez-Harrison recently entered into agreements with FILA and GEICO to be a brand ambassador for both companies. He is the only professional boxer to represent each prestigious brand.

 

Mike Dallas Jr. was born into a boxing family and tabbed by experts during his teen years as a future professional star. At age 29, he’s in the midst of a comeback that lands him in Washington, D.C. against local unbeaten favorite Dusty Hernandez-Harrison that may be the most important fight of his life. Як аматар, Dallas shared a ring with current world champions Terence Crawford (whom Dallas claims he beat three times) and Danny Garcia as well as three-time U.S. Olympian Rau’shee Warren. He won multiple national amateur titles and qualified for the 2004 і 2008 Алімпійскія гульні. Dallas turned professional on March 20, 2008 against Alejandro Valladares in San Jose, California and won by unanimous decision. He would go unbeaten in his next 17 баі. When he faced Josesito Lopez for the vacant NABF super lightweight title on January 28, 2011 in his national television debut on ESPN at Pechanga Resort and Casino in Temecula, Каліфорнія, he was shockingly stopped in the seventh round.Пяць месяцаў праз, Dallas met fellow rising contender Mauricio Herrera. In an excellent fight, again at Pechanga Resort and Casino, Dallas lost by a razor thin majority decision. Despite the setback, Dallas’ performance showed boxing experts he was back to contender status. In his next two fights, Dallas dominated former Miguel Angel Gonzales on February 17, 2012 and knocked out Javier Castro on June 22, 2012 to capture the WBO Latino light welterweight title. Those wins brought Dallas to his biggest opportunity to date, an WBC super lightweight interim world title fight against Lucas Matthysse, студзеня 26, 2013 at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. Just after negotiations for the fight were finalized, Dallas learned that his father, Mike Dallas Sr., who introduced his son to boxing at age six, passed away suddenly at just 45 гадоў. Dallas Jr., аднак, did not pull out of the Matthysee fight. На бой ноччу, Dallas Jr. was all there physically, but mentally a fight of that magnitude was too much under the circumstances and Matthysee, probably the hardest puncher in boxing, imposed his will on Dallas, scoring a first round knockout. He then took the break he should have taken before the Matthysee fight, spending two years away from the ring. When Dallas felt the urge to fight again, he contacted his trainer Ben Bautista and the pair ventured to Tijuana, Мексіка, where Dallas picked up two quick wins against Alejandro Alonso on November 20, 2015 and most recently on December 19 against Odillon Rivera. He now returns to fight in the spotlight again on Мая 13 in a true crossroads fight against Hernandez-Harrison.

 

At the age of nineteen, Darmani Rock is already drawing comparisons to former heavyweight greats of the past. Rock has received high praise for his powerful jab and ambidexterity. Standing at 6’4”, he moves with an unparalleled lightness and speed for a fighter his size. Rock earned nation-wide accolades following a banner year in 2014 when he took home the USA Boxing Junior and Youth Open, Youth Continental and Youth World super heavyweight titles. During the 2014 Junior and Youth Open in Reno, Невада, Rock shut out the 2013 National Youth Champion, John Luna, 3-0. This impressive performance was followed by another super heavyweight title at the Youth Continental Championships in March 2014 in Quito, Ecuador where he defeated Argentina’s Kervin Espinola 3-0. Rock then took home the gold medal at the prestigious World Youth Championships in Bulgaria in April 2014 by a 2-1 decision over Germany’s Peter Kadiru. Rock also took home the 2014 World Junior Amateur Championship and capped off 2014 by being named Philadelphia’s Amateur Boxer of the Year at the annual Briscoe Awards. His most noteworthy win, аднак, came in May 2015 when he beat Cam Awesome, a career amateur who has been called the next Chris Byrd, in Las Vegas for the National Golden Gloves title. Rock also captured the 2015 U.S. National Amateur super heavyweight championship. He ended his amateur career as the number one rated super heavyweight in the United States (and the number five rated super heavyweight in the world) збіраецца 19-5 in national tournaments. In February 2016, Rock signed an exclusive promotional agreement with Roc Nation Sports.

Ніжэй тое, што байцы, прамоўтэры, трэнеры, менеджэры і іншыя ўзвышэнні госці павінны былі сказаць на прэс-канферэнцыі:

 

 

Андрэ Уорд, Двухразовы чэмпіён свету і топ-рэйтынгу фунт-для-фунта знішчальнікаў:

"Я хачу падзякаваць усім за, як звычайна. Bay Area, з'яўляецца выдатным месцам. Мы не часта атрымліваюць дастатковага крэдыту за талент, які выходзіць адсюль, але для прыхільнікаў, Гэта велізарны гэта. Я проста ўдзячны за тое, што з месца, як гэта і ўдзячны мець любоў і падтрымку на кожнае падзея, якое мы прыносім тут. Я ўдзячны, што мяне і хлопцаў, як Marshawn Lynch, Лиллард і воіны паклаў гэтае месца на карце, і людзі прымаюць апавяшчэння на нацыянальным этапе. Гэта вельмі важна для мяне.

 

"Што да самога бою, гэта вельмі проста мне ... хто-небудзь, хто ведае мяне, яны ведаюць, як я працую, і яны ведаюць, як я цікаць. Я не ўгразнуць ў тым, што будзе далей. Я не ўгразнуць ў тым, што людзі кажуць. Я ведаю, што кажуць. Я ведаю, што казаў мой праціўнік, і я бяру яго на слове. Я зрабіў усё, што я павінен рабіць, як я заўсёды раблю і як я зрабіў апошні 10 гадоў маёй кар'еры. Я ўзяў на лепшае ... калі гэта не іншы чэмпіён, то гэта галоўным прэтэндэнтам ... і гэта нічым не адрозніваецца. Вы, хлопцы, проста ведаю, што я засяроджаны і замкнулі ў, як я заўсёды. Я гатовы, і я гатовы да вайны прыйшоў Сакавіка 26."

Саліван Баррера, Нумар адзін па рэйтынгу IBF у паўцяжкай вазе прэтэндэнтам:

"Я хацеў бы сказаць дзякуй, што прыйшлі сюды. Я хачу сказаць дзякуй ГБО, дзякуй усім. Дзякуй Андрэ Уорд за прыняцце мой бой. Я абяцаю ўсім, хто прыходзіць на арэну, што я меў вялікай падрыхтоўкі, і гэта вялікая мара. У тую ноч, Я буду мець вялікае шоў для ўсіх ".

DAVID Itskowitch, COO Бокс - Roc Nation Спорт:

"Два з лепшых цяжкавагавікоў святло на планеце будуць сутыкацца на Сакавіка 26. Яны маюць агульную запіс 45-0 з 27 Накаўту і само сабой зразумела, ні адзін не выпрабаваў паражэнне як прафесіянал. У той час як кожны чалавек мае грознага суперніка перад ім, яны абодва маюць свае вочы на ​​Сяргея Кавалёва і яго трох сусветных паясоў тытул, але спачатку яны маюць справу, каб прысутнічаць на у суботу ноч.

 

"Кожны раз, калі я выходжу ў Окленд для падзеі і я з Андрэ у залежнасці, дзе ён кажа ў сродках масавай інфармацыі, мне здаецца, што, відавочна,, ён асаблівы талент атлетычнаму, але ён таксама адмысловы чалавек, і я спадзяюся, што ўсё тут у Оклендзе разумее і шануе тое, што. Ён прынцыповы сямейны чалавек, які заўсёды імкнецца рабіць правільныя рэчы, і гэта тое, што рэдка сустракаецца ў жыцці ў гэтыя дні, але асабліва рэдка ў спорце. Я спадзяюся, што вы, хлопцы цэняць яго. Бокс кар'еры не доўжацца вечна. Ён не збіраецца змагацца назаўжды, таму кожны чалавек павінен шанаваць тое, што ў вас ёсць тут у Андрэ Уорд.

 

"Андрэ захапіў залаты медаль на Алімпійскіх гульнях у Афінах і з'яўляецца апошнім U.S. баксёр зрабіў так. Яго спіс зрынутых ворагаў чытаецца як хто ёсць хто ў супер сярэдняй вазе. Акрамя таго, ён дамінаваў і накаўтаваў былога чэмпіёна ў паўцяжкай вазе свету, Чад Доўсан ў сваіх 2012 ускрыццё. У сваім апошнім баі, ён дамінаваў двухразовы тытул чэмпіёна свету Пола Сміта на Чэрвеня 20 на Oracle Arena. Ён адпраўляецца ў наступным раздзеле сваёй кар'еры на Сакавіка 26, вярнуцца да Oracle Arena у чарговы раз, як ён робіць свой рухацца да паўцяжкай вазе гатовы зрабіць тое, што ён зрабіў у супер сярэдняй вазе ... чыстка яго і дамінуючай усё, што стаіць на яго шляху ".

Мікалая DOVE, Віцэ-прэзідэнт па маркетынгу і генеральны саветнік - Асноўныя падзеі:

"Я сапраўды хацеў бы падзякаваць Андрэ Уорд. Ён не павінен быў узяць на сябе непераможным байцом у сваім першым баі ў паўцяжкай вазе, але ён зрабіў гэта, і я думаю, што заслугоўвае высокай ацэнкі.

 

"У сваім апошнім баі, Саліван стаў абавязковым прэтэндэнтам на IBF паясы Сяргея Кавалёва. Ён мог бы сядзеў і чакаў, калі яго тытульны бой, але замест гэтага ён бачыў гэты бой супраць Андрэ Уорд як магчымасць сапраўды дасягнуць велічы, і ён зрабіў гэта. Як вы ўсё ведаеце, Асноўныя падзеі і Roc Nation Спорт ёсць вялікія планы на Андрэ Уорд і Сяргей Кавалёў у канцы гэтага года і Саллівана Баррера можа сапраўды засмучаны тым, што яблык кошык.

 

"Абодва гэтых мужчын, Саліван і Андрэ, ёсць усё, што язда на зыходзе Суботу барацьба. У клімаце, які мы маем у боксе прама цяпер, гэта прыемна бачыць рэальных воінаў, якія не баяцца рызыкаваць. Яны абодва заслугоўваюць нашай павагі і захаплення, што. Гэта тое, што наш від спорту павінен быць аб.

 

"Sullivan Баррера непераможаным з запісам 17-0 з 12 выйграе бліжэйшыя шляхам накаўтам. Ён проста павярнуўся 34, месяц таму, які вы маглі б падумаць трохі стары для гэтага моманту ў сваёй кар'еры. Тое, што вы можаце не ведаць, што ён меў паспяховую аматарскую кар'еру на Кубе, а затым страціў некалькі гадоў свайго росквіце сіл у той час як ён быў дэзертыраваць ў Злучаныя Штаты. Ён прыйшоў сапраўды доўгі шлях, каб быць тут сёння на гэты момант і гэтую магчымасць. ён галодны, ён упэўнены, і ён гатовы ".

ВИРДЖИЛ паляўнічы, трэнер Андрэ Уорд:

"Гэта фантастычная карта з фантастычнымі спартсменаў, якія спрабуюць зрабіць свой шлях у свеце бокса. Калі гэты бой адбываецца ў любым іншым горадзе, гэта было б вялікім падзеяй. Тое, што мы хочам зрабіць, гэта пераканацца, што Oakland разумее, і што разумее навакольны Bay Area, велічыня гэтай падзеі такім чынам, мы зможам працягваць прынесці сусветнага класа бокс у Окленд.

"Яны кажуць, што іншыя сеткі робяць байцоў, але HBO робіць зоркі, таму мы рады быць часткай гэтага. Мы просім вас, каб выйсці і падтрымаць гэтую барацьбу. выходзь Субота ноч і атрымлівайце асалоду ад для добрай ночы топ бокса ".

BEN ліры, Трэнер Sullivan Баррера:

"Я хачу падзякаваць ўсіх людзей, якія ставяць разам гэта супер падзея у суботу. Мы тут, каб пакласці на вялікую шоў, і Саліван зрабіў усё, каб падрыхтаваць сябе да гэтай падзеі.

"Больш за ўсё на свеце, мы паважаем Mr. Уорд за яго дасягненні, яго аўтарытэт і ён супер хлопец у спорце. Гэта выдатна, каб быць часткай гэтага.

Джэймс Прынс, менеджэр Андрэ Уорд:

"Гэта гістарычны момант для нас. Мы ўваходзім у 175 Фунт паўцяжкай вазе. Гэта момант, што горад не хоча прапусціць. Менавіта ў гэты момант у пачатку руху.
