Mewakili negara asalnya, Brooklyn, N.Y., Colbert (15-0, 6 Biaya) telah dengan cepat menaikkan peringkat 130-pon, menghadapi kompetisi tingkat tinggi dalam yang pertama 15 perkelahian pro. Already established as a fighter with dazzling boxing skills, Colbert showcased his ability to fight toe-to-toe in his last outing, as he stopped hard-hitting Jaime Arboleda in round 11 of their December 2020 bentrokan. The 24-year-old turned pro in 2015 and beat three unbeaten fighters in his first eight contests. Prior to the Arboleda fight, Colbert scored a highlight-reel first round knockout against Miguel Beltran Jr. pada bulan September 2019 and a dominant 12-round decision victory over former champion Jezreel Corrales in January 2020.
“I’m very excited to be back in the ring on July 4 weekend,” kata Colbert. “I get to set off my fireworks on SHOWTIME the night before. We’re taking this one to Dignity Health Sports Park in California, but I know I’ll have my New York family behind me. This is just another day, another dollar. I have a job to do, and that’s to get the win by any means necessary, but I’m looking to dominate. I expect Nyambayar to bring his A-game though because he knows he’ll be in there with a monster. I may not be the biggest puncher in the world, but I know how to finish a guy and get him out of there, and on July 3 that’s exactly what I’ll be looking to do.”
The 28-year-old Nyambayar (12-1, 9 Biaya) won a silver medal representing his native Mongolia in the 2012 Olympics and now lives in Southern California, where he’s trained by John Pullman. Nyambayar ascended the featherweight rankings after his extensive amateur career with victories over then unbeaten Harmonito Dela Torre and former interim champion Oscar Escandon. He earned his first world title shot when he defeated former champion Claudio Marrero in January 2019, before dropping his championship bout against long-reigning WBC Featherweight Champion Gary Russell Jr. pada bulan Februari 2020. Ahead of his super featherweight debut on July 3, the WBC’s second-ranked featherweight Nyambayar most recently handed Cobia Breedy his first loss by scoring two knockdowns and eventually earning the decision in September 2020.
“When I got the call about this fight, I jumped at the opportunity,” said Nyambayar. “I can’t wait to compete. I was born for fights like this. I’m going to leave it all in the ring and give the fans a great show on July 3.”
Lahir di Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic and now fighting out of Miami, Rivera (20-0, 13 Biaya) burst onto the scene in 2019 making his U.S. debut with a victory over Juan Rene Tellez. The 23-year-old continued his ascent in 2020, adding a stoppage win against Fidel Maldonado Jr. and a unanimous decision triumph against lightweight contender LaDarius Miller. Baru-baru ini, Rivera stepped back into the ring to knock out Anthony Mercado in February of this year.
“I can’t wait to be showcasing my skills once again on July 3,” said Rivera. “Fernández will be bringing his A-game and that’s exactly what I want. My coach Herman Caicedo and I have been zeroing in on the best approach to this fight and I’m excited to execute it. Jon is a rough and tough fighter and probably the best fighter I’ve faced to this point and I’m looking forward to the challenge. I know that I will be fighting for a world title soon, so I’m just staying focused and disciplined until that time comes.”
The 25-year-old Fernández (21-1, 18 Biaya) enters this bout on a five-fight winning streak following his only career blemish, a decision loss to O’Shaquie Foster in 2018 pada tanggalShoBox: Generasi Baru. A native of Bilbao, Spanyol, Fernández will fight in the U.S. for the fourth time on July 3. Fernández has been mentored by boxing great Sergio Martinez and will look to put himself back in position for a world title against Rivera. Dalam laga terakhirnya, Fernández knocked out Aristides Perez in the first-round of their February 2020 bentrokan.
“The fans are going to enjoy this fight with Rivera very much,” said Fernández. “Both of us are going to give our all in the ring for the opportunity to become a champion. This is the kind of fight that boxing is all about. Our division is full of great fighters, so you need to fight the best to be the best. My training is going very well and I believe that at this moment, I am in the prime of my career.”
A native of Brooklyn, Hitchins (12-0, 5 Biaya) profesional pada 2017 after representing Haiti at the 2016 Olimpiade. The 23-year-old has flashed impressive skills as he’s amassed an unbeaten record in the pro ranks, which is the product of an extensive amateur career. Dalam outing terakhir, Hitchins scored a career-best victory, as he earned a decision over former world champion Argenis Mendez. Hitchins has increased his competition in winning 10-round decisions in his last three fights.
“After my last fight in December, I got right back in the ring and have been training and tweaking things to help me really get to that star level,” said Hitchins. “I’ve always had the tools, but people are just now recognizing my talents. Each opponent has brought something different out of me, and I plan to keep rising to the occasion and putting on a show for the fans.”
Harga (17-1, 10 Biaya) returned to the ring in April to knock out Saul Corral in the fifth round. His previous outing had come in December 2019 when he suffered a knee injury that forced him to take a TKO loss against Malik Hawkins in a fight Price led on the scorecards. Berasal dari St. Louis and now fighting out of Houston, Price was a standout track and field runner at Grambling State University before turning pro and winning his first 16 perkelahian.
“Every dream has a process and a price tag,” said Price. “Those who embrace the process and pay the price, live the dream. Those who don’t, just dream. I can’t wait to get back in the ring on July 3 and put on a great performance.”

MIAMI(Bulan Juni 7, 2021) – All-time boxing greatFloyd "Money" Mayweatherand social media sensationLogan “The Maverick” Paulfought to the distance in their eight-round special exhibition bout Sunday night that headlined a SHOWTIME PPV from Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens.
“Dia kuat, tough and better than I thought he was,"Kata Mayweather. “I was surprised by him tonight. That was some good little work.”
“It’s an honor to share the ring with Floyd,” said Paul. “He’s one of the GOATs. This is one of the coolest things ever.”
After weeks of buildup, the star-studded event pitted superstars from two different worlds in a highly anticipated showdown for sports and entertainment fans around the globe.
Mayweather displayed his typical patient and clinical boxing style, feeling out Paul in the opening round, before allowing Paul to come forward with a flurry of power shots at the end of the round that were mostly blocked, but excited the crowd nonetheless. As the fight wore on, Mayweather began to find a spot to land numerous power shots on Paul’s head and body.
Despite sustaining punishment in the middle rounds, Paul was able to use his over 30-pound weight advantage to frequently tie Mayweather up and avoid being stopped or sent to the canvas.
“Even without much experience, he knew to use his weight to tie me up tonight,"Kata Mayweather.
Setelah pertarungan, the fighters expressed gratitude and inspiration to the fans who have helped them reach the tremendous heights that allowed this match to become reality.
“I had fun tonight,"Kata Mayweather. “I thank all the fans who came out, you’re all unbelievable.”
“I don’t want anyone to tell me anything is impossible ever again,” said Paul. “The fact that I got in here with one of the greatest boxers of all time, it proves the odds can be beat. Anyone can beat the odds and do great things in life. This is one of the greatest nights of my life, Saya senang. "
In the co-main event former two-division world championBadou Jack(24-3-3, 14 Biaya) delivered a dominating fourth-round stoppage of previously unbeatenBukit Dervin(15-1, 13 Biaya) in their light heavyweight duel.
“The game plan was just to outbox him,” said Jack. “Everything else will come. Sudah Pasti, hit the body. He was a little soft in the body but I give him respect. He came out on short notice. He was supposed to fight next week but this is a different level.”
Known as a slow starter throughout his accomplished career, Jack came out faster in this fight and was sharp from the outset against the replacement opponent Colina, who stepped in for Jean Pascal after Pascal failed a pre-fight drug test.
“He was trying to hold a lot and survive,” said Jack. “I fight better when I fight better opponents. I was a little sloppy. The world class fights are when I perform the best.”
Jack’s effectiveness forced Colina to try to hold to stop the incoming attack, but he was only able to use that strategy briefly, as referee Frank Santore Jr. took away points for holding in rounds two and three, warning Colina that one more infraction would end the fight in disqualification.
Di babak empat, Jack landed a straight right hand that put Colina on the mat in the opening minute of the frame. Colina fought valiantly to stay in the fight, but the body attack from Jack helped him finally earn the stoppage. A combination to the body put Colina down for the second time and a counter right hand dropped Colina for a third and final time as the referee halted the fight at 2:57 di putaran.
“I’m a big guy and I walk around heavy, so I might move up to cruiserweight,” said Jack post fight about his future plans. “My goal is to become a three-division champion and I fight better when I don’t have to cut a lot of weight.”
The pay-per-view telecast also saw veteran contenderLuis Arias(19-2-1, 9 Biaya) score a split-decision victory over former unified 154-pound championJarrett Hurd “Cepat”(24-2, 16 Biaya) in an action-packed 10-round affair.
“I’m not sure what went wrong tonight,” said Hurd. “I believe I won the fight. I had a knockdown. I could make a hundred excuses but it wasn’t a great performance.”
Arias controlled the early rounds of the duel, attacking Hurd with numerous combinations that landed flush. His clean power punching was an advantage throughout, as he out landed Hurd in power punches by a total of 153 untuk 120 while landing over 40% of those shots.
“The game plan was to jump on him, get the early lead and keep it,” said Arias. “I felt like in the middle rounds I was winning the fight but you never know because I wasn’t the A-side in this fight. I buzzed him a lot, especially on the inside.”
Hurd began to attempt to mount a comeback in rounds five and six, closing the distance effectively and finding a home for short right hooks and right uppercuts, with Arias even acknowledging that he was made unsteady after the action.
“I came in here and challenged the number one guy at 154 pounds and we fought somewhere halfway and I was able to edge a decision,” said Arias. “Props to Jarrett Hurd. You fought a great fight. Dengan Jujur, you could have had me out of there. I was definitely buzzed. If you would have found a way, I definitely would have gone down.”
In a fight that had two brief delays to weather affecting the ring surface, Hurd scored a knockdown in round nine with a glancing right hand after Arias appeared to slip on the ring. Despite the advantage on the scorecard, the uneasy footing affected Hurd’s plan to box Arias from the outside.
“The plan coming out in the first round was to box,” said Hurd. “I wasn’t as confident in my feet as the rain came down, so I had to go toe-to-toe more. That wasn’t really what we trained for, so I was a bit sloppy.”
Arias bounced back effectively from the knockdown in the final round, with his onslaught eventually forcing Hurd to look to hold on in the final minutes to reach the final bell. In his first outing with new trainer Ismael Salas, Arias ended the night victorious, with one judge scoring the fight 95-94 for Hurd, overruled by scores of 97-93 dan 96-93 for Arias.
“I would like to thank Ismael Salas,” said Arias. “I came to him semi-late. About six or seven weeks and I needed to change something in my game plan to beat Jarrett. The things I was doing before would have gotten me a loss tonight. I needed somebody to just tweak a little bit and put my game up a little bit so I could beat this champion.”
“I’ll take the rematch at whatever weight,” said Hurd. “I know I’m the better man.”
In the opening bout of the pay-per-view, former NFL starChad Johnsonmade his boxing debut in an exhibition that went the four-round distance against versatile pro fighterBrian Maxwell.
“I had fun,” said Johnson. “I had two months to get ready for this and I want to thank God for keeping us safe out there. I want to thank Floyd, Leonard Ellerbe and my whole team for allowing me to check this off my bucket list.”
“Ask the world who Brian Maxwell is now,” said Maxwell. “Brian Maxwell is here. Terima kasih, Chad. It was an honor fighting my idol and I appreciate it.”
Johnson showed off the “sweet feet” that made him a six-time Pro Bowler, landing some strong jabs and check hooks from distance, while avoiding serious damage from Maxwell over the first three rounds.
Di babak empat, Maxwell provided an exclamation to the bout, landing a counter overhand right that connected and put Johnson onto the canvas with 40 detik tersisa di putaran. In his first foray into the sweet science, Johnson was able to recover from the shot, get to his feet and make it to the final bell.
Always willing to step into uncomfortable waters throughout his career, Johnson post-fight expressed hope that his venture into the ring will serve as a positive example for those watching.
“My life has always been about taking chances and doing crazy stuff and this is just another one off my bucket list,” said Johnson. “It’s a message for a lot of people who are scared to fail, scared to lose, scared to take chances to go out there and live. Don’t be scared to fail, it’s okay. I don’t box. I fight but it ain’t in the ring, so of course I was a little sloppy.”

JAKE PAUL VS. KUTIPAN DAN FOTO TYRON WOODLEY FACEOFF

MIAMI(Bulan Juni 4, 2021) – Superstar media sosial dan petinju profesional yang tak terkalahkanJake “Anak Bermasalah” Paul berhadapan dengan lawan berikutnya, juara UFC lima kaliTyron Woodley, di tempat bersejarah 5th Street Gym di Miami pada hari Kamis menjelang pertarungan musim panas mereka yang sangat dinanti di SHOWTIME PPV.
Inilah yang dikatakan Paul dan Woodley setelah tatapan panas mereka di Miami:
JAKE PAUL
“Saya mengatakan kepadanya bahwa saya akan membayar Anda dua kali lipat dompet Anda jika Anda memukuli saya. Tapi kalau kalah, Anda harus membayar dompet Anda untuk amal saya. Dia kurang percaya diri. Mengapa Anda tidak mengambil taruhan itu sebagai petarung jika Anda tahu Anda akan menang?? Untuk menghasilkan uang dua kali lipat? Ini adalah hari bayaran terbesar dalam hidup Anda dan Anda dapat menghasilkan dua kali lipat? Letakkan uang Anda di tempat mulut Anda berada.
“Dia striker yang bagus. Dia dikenal karena menjatuhkan orang. Tapi saya pikir ketika saya mengalahkan Tyron, orang harus menghormati nama saya. Tapi bukan itu yang saya di sini untuk jujur. Saya sudah tahu seberapa baik saya. Saya tahu bahwa ini akan menjadi pertarungan mudah lainnya. Itu sebabnya SHOWTIME berbisnis dengan saya. Anda sedang melihat masa depan tinju.
“Dia tidak sebagus saya dan dia mengejar ketinggalan. Kami melihat lubang di seluruh permainannya dan dia telah mencoba mempelajari cara bertinju. Dia kaku. Otot tidak bertarung dan dia akan keluar dari elemennya. Ini tinju. Ini bukan MMA. Anda tidak dapat belajar cara bertinju dalam jumlah waktu ini. Sekarang kita akan menunjukkan padanya kendali. Anak Disney akan mengalahkan juara dunia UFC lima kali. Ini akan menjadi lucu.
“Aku bahkan belum menunjukkan kemampuan bertarungku sama sekali. Saya bahkan belum melewati dua putaran dalam karir profesional saya. Saya belum dipukul di wajah. Tidak ada yang bahkan bisa melihat apakah saya memiliki dagu atau permainan pertarungan batin saya. Aku bahkan belum melakukan pemanasan. Dan ngomong-ngomong, Saya tipe petarung yang semakin baik semakin lama pertarungan berlangsung. Saya menjadi lebih baik dalam sparring jadi saya bahkan belum bisa melakukan pemanasan dan saya bersemangat untuk menunjukkan kemampuan saya jika dia bisa keluar dari babak pertama.
“Aku sudah memprediksi setiap pertarunganku. Saya bilang Ben Askren, babak pertama. Aku bilang Nate Robinson, babak pertama. Dia sampai ke yang kedua. Saya katakan dalam pertarungan pro pertama saya, babak pertama. Saya tidak berpikir Tyron akan berhasil keluar dari dua putaran. Anda mungkin bahkan tidak bisa melihat kemampuan tinju saya dalam pertarungan ini, jujur saja.”
TYRON WOODLEY
“Saya selalu ingin bertinju sepanjang hidup saya tetapi tidak pernah melakukannya. Ini adalah kesempatan saya. Ini adalah anak yang sangat kuat. Dia punya banyak kekuatan di belakangnya. Ini akan menjadi platform besar untuk menunjukkan apa yang bisa saya lakukan di ring tinju. Dan dia seorang pejuang. Dia bisa melawan. Pada akhir hari, Anda dapat menontonnya dan waktunya, ritme dan gerak kaki ada di sana.
“Dia belum bertarung terlalu lama. Tapi tindakan kecil yang saya lihat bersih. Pertahanan yang bagus. Nate mengejarnya, dia melindungi dirinya sendiri dan dia keluar dari cangkangnya dan memecahkannya.
“Dia mencoba mengecilkan kemampuannya. Dia seorang pejuang. Jangan biarkan dia mempermainkanmu dengan mengatakan, ‘Saya hanya seorang YouTuber.’ Minggu lalu, dia adalah seorang pejuang. Ketika dia mengatakan tidak ada yang ingin melawannya, dia adalah seorang pejuang. Anda bukan seorang YouTuber lagi. Anda tidak di Disney. Sudah lama sejak dia berada di Disney. Itu seperti saya mengatakan saya hanya pegulat perguruan tinggi dan saya tidak memukul orang.
"Saya hanya ingin bersenang senang. Saya ingin berlatih keras. Saya ingin menjadi lebih baik. Saya ingin pergi ke sana dan melakukan hal-hal sesuai keinginan saya dan menjadi orang yang mengambil keputusan. Saya ingin pergi ke sana dan membuat sejarah. Saya selalu membuat sejarah. Saya mungkin tidak selalu mendapatkan pujian untuk itu tetapi saya selalu yang pertama. Pejuang selalu memukul saya menanyakan apa yang harus mereka lakukan, apa yang mereka lakukan salah. Sekarang saatnya bagi saya untuk melakukannya sendiri. ”
