DEVIN HANEY On his recent training camp:
“トレーニングキャンプは素晴らしいされています. I always start in Las Vegas for the first two weeks. I then went to the Bay Area to train at the SNAC facility with Victor Conte for four weeks. I did a lot of rounds of sparring with Mario Barrios among others at Virgil Hunter’s gym as well. たった今, I’m back in Las Vegas with my strength and conditioning coach Reggie. We are working hard, and I’ll be at my best when I step into the ring on Jan 11th.”
On facing South Africa’s undefeated Xolisani Ndongeni:“I know fighters from Africa always come to fight. Xolisani Ndongeni is no different. He’s very experienced and undefeated. Ndongeni has gone 12 rounds many times in his career. These are the type of fights I need to win impressively. I’m always looking to improve. Beating the tough South African will get me one step closer to a world title shot.”
On making his third appearance onShoBoxの: “Fighting on SHOWTIME’sShoBoxのseries has been amazing for my career. This is my third appearance on the series.

BILL HANEY, Devin’s Father and Trainer On the progression of his son Devin Haney: “Devin always impresses me with his work ethic and commitment to the game plan. Every day in the gym he is working on the little things that makes a fighter great. Devin has come a long way since his pro debut. Once he started fighting on SHOWTIME, he’s really stepped up his game. He’s a natural born fighter and one hell of a good entertainer.”
On picking his opponents:“We always look to step him up in competition. This is a big fight for us and we know what we are up against. These are the type of fights that are going to take him to the next level.”
軽量部門の景観:“The lightweight division is stacked and is one of the best in boxing. [Vasiliy] Lomachenko and [マイキー] Garcia are considered pound-for-pound top 10. The young guys coming up are very talented as well and to hold the lightweight title at this time you got to be a bad boy. Devin is marching up the rankings and hopefully by the end of the year, we’ll get our shot, but first we must handle business against Xolisani Ndongeni.” # # #

The SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING main
event promises fireworks and high-stakes action as both men bring their
fan-friendly styles to the ring. Here is what the press conference participants
had to say Thursday from the Conga Room at L.A. ライブ:
GERVONTA DAVIS
“I believe that Abner Mares is a
future Hall of Famer because he’s fought so many top-level guys. This is big
for me because this is my first time being a main event in the U.S. and I just
feel blessed to be here.
“で 2019, I want to make a big statement
not only in the ring but by letting the boxing world know that I’m the next
star. I’m aiming to headline a pay-per-view by 2020 if everything goes right. I
have great fights lined up for next year, without looking past Abner.
“As soon as I got off the plane, I
went straight to the gym and got some work in with some guys there. We’re not
taking Abner lightly. I’m excited and blessed to be in this position. 2月
9, I’m confident it will be sold out and I’m confident that I will be that next
boxing star.
“I’ve always known that you can’t
underestimate anyone in the ring. You have to look at your opponent like
they’re equal to you. I understand exactly what I have in front of me.
“I don’t know what Abner sees, but he
was sure he wanted to take this fight so obviously he sees something. I have
power, 速度, movement and really a blend of everything. I believe that I’m a
better fighter than him.
“It’s all about being focused in that
ring and doing my job. I’m coming to get Abner Mares out of there.
“I wanted to fight Abner Mares out
here in Southern California. Floyd Mayweather fought Arturo Gatti in his
hometown and that’s basically what I’m doing here.”
アブナーマレス
“One day I just thought to myself
that this fight against Gervonta Davis would be a great matchup and that I can
win it. There are other big fights at featherweight that I could have gotten.
I’m taking this fight because of the challenge that it brings. I’m all about
that.
“I’m coming off of a great close
fight against Leo Santa Cruz. I’m a winner every time I fight. I come to prove
people wrong and perform. Not too many people do that these days.
“We’ll already
have 50 percent of the fight won just by having a good corner, a good team and
a great plan. その他 50 percent is up to the fighter to perform. One thing
is having the game plan in your mind but it’s another thing to go out there and
perform that game plan.
“We’re not just
going into this fight blind. I’m not stupid. I’m taking this fight because I
see something in this guy. 厳しい戦いだ, 間違いない. All fights are tough.
He’s in for a good fight. 一日の終わりに, you guys have to stop worrying
about my weight and if I’m too small. You guys are going to get a great fight
and that’s all that matters. Sit back, look pretty and enjoy the fight.
“You can’t compare
Jesus Cuellar to Gervonta Davis. I know some people wanted to compare how I did
against Cuellar and how Davis did against Cuellar, but he fought him two years
after I did. It makes no sense. Gervonta Davis has a different style than
Cuellar and it’s going to be a good fight. He’s an exciting fighter and he’s a
boxer. He’s a boxer that trades punches so it makes for an exciting fight.
“People are going to recognize me as
someone who took on everyone. People say this will be a new style for me, but
I’ve seen them all. This is team ‘no fear’ and we’re going to make this
happen.”
カルビンフォード, デイビス’ トレーナー
“This is a great chance for us to go
up against the great team that Abner Mares and Robert Garcia make. We’ve been
watching them for a long time and we’re looking forward to it.
“We’ve been doing
this for many years. We know that when it’s time to lock in, we’ll be locked
in. Sparring has been going well. We’re just taking our time and doing what we
have to do to get ready. We have a great team and everybody is doing their
part. It’s our time to show what we’re capable of.
“2月 9, that’s when Gervonta
Davis is going to step up and show the world what he truly is. I can’t wait for
everyone to see it.”
ROBERT GARCIA, マザーズ’ トレーナー
“Abner is very motivated. We have
very strong sparring partners and he’s doing a great job in the gym already.
2月に来てください 9, everyone is in for a surprise. I respect Gervonta Davis and
his team, but I think Abner is hungrier and looking to make history.
“これは素晴らしい戦いになるだろう.
We’re excited to see a great crowd of fans out there to enjoy a fight that’s
going to be full of action.
“We know that this is a tough
challenge. I think of this like the Adrien Broner vs. Marcos Maidana fight.
Just like Davis, they said Broner is flashy, dangerous and this and that. But
you all know what happened. Same thing is going to happen this time
around.”
LEONARD ELLERBE, メイウェザーのCEO
プロモーション
“This is a fight the fans wanted.
These two guys have gone back and forth on social media and I’m excited that
they’re going to finally get in the ring on February 9.
“デイビス対. Mares is a thrilling
matchup between two very skilled warriors. You can’t expect anything but great
fireworks from this fight.
“You can’t say enough about Gervonta
Davis. 彼は若いです, exciting and when he comes into the ring, he doesn’t play
games. That style is going to make this an electrifying matchup.
“You don’t see fighters like Gervonta
Davis very often. He has all the ingredients it takes to be a huge star. He
knows that he has room to improve and he truly wants to get better. He has a
tremendous skill set and you’ve only gotten a glimpse of what Gervonta Davis
brings to the table so far.
“Abner Mares really wanted this fight.
Any time a boxer goes out of his way to say ‘I want that guy’, the biggest and
baddest guy in the division, that speaks volumes to the confidence that Abner
Mares has. He’s exhibited this in all of his fights and he always performs at
the highest level.”
リチャード・シェーファー, 会長 & CEO of
Ringstar Sports
“This is a fascinating matchup taking
place at the perfect venue. This is a great fight to get 2019 行き. It’s
youth, strength and size against experience, will and desire. May the best man
win.
“I want to thank both fighters for
coming together to make this fight happen. This is one that had been brewing
for a while. Gervonta Davis is the best fighter in his division and he’s one of
the guys who can talk the talk and walk the walk.
“Abner Mares has always sought out
the most difficult challenges in front of him. He is a legend in this sport and
one of the best fighters to ever come out of Mexico. These are the kinds of
challenges that make Abner what he is in this sport.
“Gervonta Davis is one of the rising
stars of the sport and Mares is one of its legendary champions. When you put
those two together, the ones who are going to win are the fight fans.
“People are excited about this fight.
Fans know that you never want to count out a great champion like Abner Mares.
This is of course a dangerous fight for Mares, that’s how good Gervonta Davis
is, but he obviously sees how he can win this fight.”
ジャック vs. Browne
Serving as Co-Feature of Manny Pacquiao vs. Adrien Broner Mega-Fight
ラスベガス (12月 20, 2018) – While two-division world
championバドージャック “リッパー”wears many hats as
an entrepreneur, philanthropist and father, it is his boxing career that has
allowed him to be on the path to greatness in and out of the ring. したがって、,
he will put his championship-caliber boxing skills on full display on Saturday,
1月 19 from MGM Grand Garden Arena live on SHOWTIME PPV®against
hungry light heavyweight Marcus Browne as the co-main event of the Manny
Pacquiao vs. Adrien Broner welterweight championship fight.
Jack is no stranger the pay-per-view spotlight as one of the
brightest stars in the Mayweather Promotions stable and is preparing to make a
statement on January 19.
“私のキャリアのこの段階で, I’m motivated to fight the best
in the division and prove I am the top light heavyweight in the world,”
ジャックは言った. “I want the biggest fights on the biggest stages against the
best competition.”
Despite being deep in training camp for this major step in his
career, ジャック, who was recently named a finalist for the Boxing Writers
Association of America’s Marvin Kohn Good Guy Award, has not forgotten his
mission outside of the ring – the work he is doing through the Badou Jack
Foundation – which focuses on giving children around the world a fighting
chance at life. He spent Thanksgiving serving food to those less fortunate at
the Catholic Charities of Southern Nevada’s food distribution center and plans
to continue to volunteer with them moving forward as well as continuing his
work in the Middle East immediately following his fight.
“Badou is receiving a well-deserved acknowledgement for his
acts of kindness,” レオナルド·エラーブは言った, メイウェザープロモーションの最高経営責任者（CEO）.
“Not only does Badou put in hard work and maintain discipline for his
craft, he’s a family man who also looks to share the fruits of his success with
others. He remains humble and carries himself with poise as his career
advances. I know that good things will continue to come his way and I’m pleased
to have him on our team, he’s a promoter’s dream.”
While Jack has been in the ring with some very tough customers
including Nathan Cleverly, ジェームスDeGale, George Groves and Anthony Dirrell, he
knows that Browne is coming to fight and try to derail his successful campaign
at light heavyweight. したがって、, in addition to the work he is putting in at
the gym, Jack has instituted a performance and weight management regimen
overseen by renowned nutritionists Lockhart and Leith, whose clients include
world-class MMA fighters from Conor McGregor to Cris Cyborg.
さらに, Jack is utilizing his nutrition supplement products
Ripper Nutrition before and after each workout as Lockhart and Leith are now
official partners in the product, they believe in it so much. Jack has also
welcomed Lockhart and Leith chef James Lockwood into camp to prepare each meal
as part of this regimen.
“Thanks to the opportunities Floyd Mayweather, Mayweather
Promotions and SHOWTIME have provided Badou, he has been able to establish
Ripper Nutrition and the Badou Jack Foundation,” アムル・アブドラは言った,
Jack’s manager. “He looks great in camp, we expect a spectacular night in
the ring and then we will get back to building his empire outside
it.”

delivering action when they step into the ring,” レオナルド·エラーブは言った, CEO
of Mayweather Promotions. “Mares has
an impressive resume and is determined to
hand Davis his first loss. Davis has made a lot of noise in the sport at a
young age and isn’t slowing down. He executes impressively and continues to
prove that he will be the next big star in boxing.”
“Abner Mares is
looking to join a select group of boxers by winning a title in his fourth
different weight class and carrying that kind of motivation into the ring is
the thing that can propel a boxer to greatness,” トム・ブラウンは言いました, President of
TGB Promotions. “We’ve already seen the kind of speed and explosive
punching power that Gervonta Davis brings into the ring. I expect that Mares
will push him to even higher levels and that is the kind of match that should

“This is an
intriguing matchup for both men at crucial points of their careers,” said
Stephen Espinoza, 社長, ショウタイムスポーツ. “Abner Mares has never
backed down from a challenge, quietly building one of the strongest resumes in
all of boxing while consistently delivering fight-of-the-year performances.
In his first fight in the super featherweight division, Abner will be
facing Gervonta Davis, one of the strongest, most talented and most exciting
young champions in all of boxing. Abner seeks another signature upset in

デイビス (20-0, 19 戦績)
最年少の現アメリカ世界チャンピオンとなった 2017 when he delivered
a star-making performance on SHOWTIME by knocking out Jose Pedraza for the IBF
130-pound title at just 22 歳. He became the youngest two-time world champion
in April when he knocked out Jesus Cuellar in the third round of their WBA
Super Featherweight Championship bout. The 24-year-old from Baltimore, メリーランド。, has
earned the reputation as a power-punching menace as he has stopped all but one
of his professional opponents.
“I’m
very excited to be showcased in my first main event in the United States on
February 9,” デイビスは言いました. “I want to make a statement in this fight by
putting on a tremendous performance against an experienced world champion like
Abner Mares. I plan on showing everyone why I belong in pound-for-pound
discussions and why I’m the most exciting champion in boxing today. You don’t
want to miss it!”
The 33-year-old Mares
(31-3-1, 15 戦績) will be moving up to 130 pounds as he aims to become just the
fourth fighter born in Mexico to win titles in four divisions, joining Juan
Manuel Marquez, Erik Morales and Jorge Arce. マザーズ, who was born in
Guadalajara, Jalisco and now lives in Montebello, カリフォルニア州。, was a member of the
Mexican Olympic boxing team in the 2004 Athens Olympics before going on to win
world titles at bantamweight, スーパーバンタム級とフェザー級. His two
battles for the featherweight world title against Leo Santa Cruz epitomized the
kinds of high-volume clashes that have set Mares apart from many of his
contemporaries in the same weight classes. He lost a unanimous decision to
Santa Cruz in his last fight in June and aims to tackle another weight class on
February 9.
“I wanted this
fight and I want this challenge against Gervonta Davis,” マレスは言った.
“I’m preparing well and I will add my fifth world title in my fourth
weight class on February 9 on SHOWTIME.”
