Inilah yang dikatakan para petarung pada hari Jumat dari JW Marriott Miami Turnberry:

JACK Badou

“Saya hanya bersyukur bahwa saya masih berjuang pada Minggu malam. Sekarang kami memiliki lawan baru dan hasilnya akan sama. Saya dalam kondisi sangat baik dan saya tidak sabar.

“Colina hanyalah pria lain. Saya menghormatinya karena datang dan melangkah sebagai pengganti yang terlambat. Tapi saya akan memenangkan pertarungan ini pada hari Minggu apakah itu Pascal atau siapa pun.

“Saya sangat frustrasi tentang Jean Pascal. Tapi saya pro dan saya bisa menyesuaikan siapa pun yang ada di depan saya. Saya kecewa karena saya memenangkan pertarungan pertama melawan Pascal dan saya menunggu 18 bulan untuk membalas dendamku my.

“Saya memiliki sedikit kemarahan yang mungkin terbawa pada Colina, tapi itu bukan masalah pribadi, hanya bisnis yang saya di sini untuk mengurus pada Minggu malam.

“Aku tidak terlalu peduli dengan judulnya, Aku benar-benar hanya peduli untuk membalas dendam terhadap Pascal. Saya menunggu begitu lama untuk ini dan saya bisa melakukan pertarungan yang berbeda sambil menunggu.

“Dia pria yang tak terkalahkan, jadi dia akan datang ke sini dengan penuh percaya diri untuk memamerkan kekuatannya.. Kami akan siap meskipun bagaimanapun dia datang ke pertarungan. Saya memiliki sparring yang hebat seperti biasanya, jadi saya siap untuk apa yang akan dia bawa.”

BUKIT DERVIN

“Saya ingin berterima kasih kepada Tim Badou Jack atas kesempatannya. Ini adalah apa yang saya lakukan. Saya lahir untuk ini. Ayo hari Minggu kalian akan melihat apa yang saya lakukan.

“Aku dijadwalkan untuk bertarung June 11 pada kartu yang berbeda. Pertarungan datang sedikit lebih awal pada bulan Juni 6. Tapi saya siap bertarung dan tidak ada alasan untuk pertarungan ini. Saya datang untuk menang dengan segala cara. Dan Anda akan melihat apa yang saya lakukan pada hari Minggu.

“Saya menghormati Badou dan apa yang dia lakukan di olahraga ini, tapi saya tahu bahwa saya memiliki semua yang saya butuhkan untuk mengejutkan dunia datang Minggu malam.

“Saya tidak akan rugi apa-apa dan itu membuat saya berbahaya. Saya akan meninggalkan segalanya di atas ring dan mengumumkan kepada seluruh dunia bahwa saya seorang petarung yang akan Anda dengar.”

JARRETT HURD

“Semua orang tahu saya memiliki urusan yang belum selesai dengan berat 154 pon. Saya tidak melihat melewati Arias sekalipun. Pertarungan ini hanya berhenti di kelas menengah karena saya akan kembali turun untuk mengurus bisnis itu.

“Kami memiliki kamp pelatihan yang luar biasa dengan pelatih baru saya Kay Koroma di Colorado Springs. Saya memiliki chip di bahu saya. Saya pikir banyak orang lupa siapa saya. Saya memiliki resume terbaik di kelas berat. Datanglah hari Minggu, Saya akan mengingatkan semua orang siapa saya.

“Itu selalu bisnis yang ketat dan itu akan sama pada hari Minggu. Arias terobsesi dengan berat badanku dan mengira aku sedang berjuang. Tapi dia perlu fokus pada apa yang perlu dia lakukan pada Minggu malam.

“Saya tidak tahu di mana saya dinilai sekarang, tapi aku petarung terbaik di 154 pon. Menunjukkan kepada dunia adalah tujuan pada hari Minggu.

“Kami baru saja membawanya kembali ke dasar di kamp pelatihan dengan pelatih saya Kay Koroma. Anda selalu dapat belajar lebih banyak dalam olahraga.

“Aku sudah bertinju selama 15 tahun sekarang dan pelatih Koroma baru saja membantu saya mengembangkan hal-hal yang sudah saya ketahui. Dia membuat saya tidak hanya maju dan menggunakan kekuatan saya, tapi sedikit bergerak dan bertinju.”

LUIS ARIAS

“Saya pikir narasinya adalah mereka membutuhkan lawan untuk Jarrett Hurd, dan aku tidak terlihat begitu hebat akhir-akhir ini. Tapi orang cenderung melupakan aku 18-0 sebelum saya mendapatkan noda pertama saya. Ketika saya bersama Floyd Mayweather, Tadi saya 9-0 dan saat itulah aku merasa paling nyaman. Itulah mentalitas yang saya ambil dalam pertarungan ini.

“Saya sudah berada di sekitar Floyd sejak Desember. Saya pernah mengikuti pelatihan Vegas di ketinggian, seperti Hurd. Saya dalam kondisi prima untuk pertarungan ini dan dia masih harus memikirkan bagaimana dia akan bertarung.

“Sekarang dunia tinju akan menyaksikan pertarungan ini. Saya akan menggunakan Ps dan Qs saya dan dia tidak perlu mencari saya. Dia harus memilih dan memilih begitu dia dipukul pada hari Minggu gaya apa yang ingin dia lawan.

“Ini harus dimenangkan bagiku. Ini adalah nama yang bagus untuk resume saya. Saya belum membohongi siapa pun. Saya telah mengambil setiap nama yang diberikan kepada saya. Ketika namanya muncul, saya berkata benar-benar. Saya siap dan saya seorang pejuang sekolah tua. Aku akan melawanmu di halaman belakang ini, halaman belakang itu, halaman belakang manapun. Pada hari Minggu itu akan menunjukkan.

“Dialah yang memiliki masalah dengan berat badan. Pertarungan tidak terlalu masuk akal di 160 karena dia tidak berperingkat dan ingin kembali ke 154. Tapi itu peluang yang terlalu besar dan kartu yang terlalu besar untuk dikeluhkan tentang bobotnya. Kami akan mengenakan sarung tangan dan berapa pun beratnya, dia menimbang. Ini akan menjadi pertarungan terbaik.”

CHAD JOHNSON

“Saya merasa sangat baik. Saya telah menggunakan tinju untuk mempersiapkan sepak bola selama bertahun-tahun, tapi aku belum pernah melakukannya sebesar ini. Untuk mempersiapkan pertarungan yang sebenarnya, adalah sesuatu yang baru. Saya menghadapi seorang pria yang melakukan ini untuk mencari nafkah, jadi saya tidak menganggap enteng ini sama sekali.

“Saya selalu gugup sebelum setiap kickoff. Jadi saya bodoh untuk mengatakan saya tidak gugup pergi ke sesuatu di mana saya keluar dari elemen saya.


“Satu hal yang sangat aku kuasai, adalah ketika ada lampu, kamera dan kerumunan, akan masuk ke sana dan menghibur.

“Saya telah sedikit bekerja dengan Jorge Masvidal, tetapi beberapa minggu terakhir berada di Houston bersama Jermall dan Jermell Charlo. Di situlah sebagian besar pekerjaan saya. Saya telah melakukan segala yang mungkin untuk memastikan saya terlihat seperti Minggu malam.

“Aku keluar dari elemenku, jadi tentu saja saya mendekati pertarungan ini dengan rendah hati. Dia datang untuk menjatuhkan kepalaku. Sepak bola adalah sesuatu yang saya lakukan sepanjang hidup saya, itu sebabnya saya berjalan seperti yang saya lakukan. Saya tidak bisa sombong dan menganggap enteng pertarungan ini.”

BRIAN MAXWELL

“Saya tidak tahu bagaimana nama saya muncul untuk pertarungan ini. Tapi seperti yang dikatakan semua orang, 'Siapa Brian Maxwell?' Itu menjadi trending topik di setiap media sosial social. Tapi coba tebak? Hari Ini, Anda semua tahu siapa Brian Maxwell. Dan saya bersemangat tentang ini. Ini pertarungan yang sempurna untukku. Ini pertarungan yang sempurna untuk Chad. Terbaik dari kedua dunia. Berasal dari penggemar. Tagar saya di media sosial telah menjadi 'Idols Menjadi Rival.' Dan ini adalah waktu yang tepat dan momen yang tepat untuk saya dan dia. Seperti yang saya katakan padanya melalui telepon, Saya penggemar berat. Tapi fanboy telah keluar jendela. Sekarang kami harus menghibur dan itulah yang akan kami lakukan.

“Ini adalah pameran, jadi kami datang untuk menghibur para penggemar dan mengadakan pertunjukan. Tetapi pada saat yang sama, kita adalah dua pria yang datang di depan satu sama lain dan harus bertarung. Apapun hasilnya, kita akan melakukan pertarungan hebat.

“Aku sudah mengikuti pria ini sejak Day 1. Aku tahu setiap gerakannya. Saya telah mencontoh diri saya setelah dia dan itu seperti melawan diri saya sendiri. Saya akan rendah hati tentang ini dan kami akan mengadakan pertunjukan untuk semua orang.

“Itulah pertanyaannya, ronde apa aku akan menjatuhkannya?. Saya di sini untuk menghibur dan bersenang-senang. Ini adalah kesempatan besar.”

LEONARD Ellerbe, CEO Mayweather Promotions

“Kami memiliki undercard bertumpuk pada Minggu malam. Saya telah mempromosikan banyak acara dan ini adalah salah satu yang sangat saya nantikan, karena itu memberi kita serangkaian pertarungan hebat selain sedikit sesuatu yang berbeda.

“Saya sangat menantikan kartu ini. Florida Selatan telah ramai sejak kami mengumumkan acara ini. Kami tidak sabar menunggu kerumunan besar dan banyak penggemar yang datang dari seluruh dunia.

“Ketika saya memikirkan Chad Johnson, dia pemain sandiwara. Dia melakukan banyak hal berbeda dengan sangat baik. Dia akan terjun ke industri tinju dalam pertarungan hebat melawan Brian Maxwell. Chad mencari kemungkinan untuk mencuri perhatian, itulah yang dia dikenal karena melakukan.

“Mantan juara bersatu Jarrett Hurd adalah juara yang hebat dan saya sudah mengenalnya selama bertahun-tahun. Dia ingin kembali dan membuat tanda di mana dia tinggalkan. Dia memberi tahu bahwa setelah pertarungan ini, dia akan mengendalikan divisi 154 pon lagi. Dia akan melawan Luis Arias dari Mayweather Promotions sendiri dan saya memiliki kesempatan untuk menyaksikan persiapan Arias secara langsung. Saya dapat memberitahu Anda sekarang dia lebih dari siap untuk mengecewakan Jarrett.

“Selain itu, Saya tidak bisa mengatakan cukup tentang Badou Jack. Dia adalah juara yang hebat di atas ring dan contoh yang luar biasa di luar ring. Dia melakukan banyak hal untuk membantu orang-orang di seluruh dunia dan Floyd dan saya sangat bangga padanya. Kami tahu dia akan menampilkan pertunjukan yang bagus hari Minggu.

“Ketika datang ke undercard ini, para penggemar sedang dalam suguhan yang luar biasa. Ini akan menjadi apa-apa selain tindakan dari atas ke bawah.”

CARSON, CALIF.(Mei 29, 2021) -Nonito Donaire adalah juara sekali lagi. Empat belas tahun setelah dia memenangkan gelar dunia pertamanya, “Filipino Flash” memperkuat kredensial Hall of Fame-nya dengan kemenangan KO ronde keempat yang sensasionalNordine Oubaaliuntuk merebut gelar WBC World Bantamweight Sabtu malam di acara utama SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING dari Dignity Health Sports Park di Carson, Kalif. dalam acara Premier Boxing Champions.

“Raja telah kembali,Donaire berseri-seri sesudahnya. “Saya suka keramaian. Semua temanku, keluarga, semua penggemar tinju yang keluar terima kasih banyak. Kalian luar biasa.”

Donaire berusia 38 tahun (41-6, 27 Biaya) sekarang menjadi juara dunia tertua di 118-pon. Dia menyelesaikannya dengan tangan kiri yang telah menjadi kartu panggilan karirnya saat dia menjatuhkan Oubaali (17-1, 12 Biaya) total tiga kali.

“Berada di usia ini bukanlah pertanyaannya, ini tentang kinerja saya,” kata Donaire. “Tentang kemampuanku untuk tumbuh. Saya percaya tidak masalah berapa usia Anda, tapi seberapa kuat mentalmu. Apa yang saya pelajari dari [Naoya] Pertarungan Inoue adalah aku kembali. Saya masih bisa bersaing di level ini. Sepanjang waktu saya tidak berkelahi, saya sedang belajar. Saya siap untuk yang berikutnya.”

Mengikuti ronde pertama yang terasa, Donaire pergi bekerja di detik, berjalan Oubaali ke bawah dan melawan dengan efek berdebar. Donaire mencetak knockdown pertama di awal set ketiga, menjatuhkan Oubaali dengan hook kiri counter khasnya. Orang Prancis itu bangkit dengan kaki goyah dan Donaire menerkam, mendaratkan lebih banyak pukulan besar sampai pukulan kiri lainnya menjatuhkan Oubaali hanya sepersekian detik sebelum putaran berakhir. Lagi, Oubaali berjuang untuk berdiri, linglung namun mau berjuang.

Akhir datang dengan cepat di yang keempat. Donaire dengan ahli mengarahkan Oubaali di sekitar ring, menjepitnya ke tali di mana pukulan kiri membuat Oubaali ambruk ke kanvas untuk ketiga kalinya dan terakhir. Wasit Jack Reiss segera membatalkannya. Waktu resmi penghentian adalah 1:52 dari putaran keempat.

“Tiga dekade menjadi juara dunia. Juara dunia sembilan kali. Itu luar biasa,” kata Donaire. “Saya datang ke sini dan saya merasa sangat baik. Hari ini saya tahu persis apa yang akan terjadi. Saya tahu persis apa yang akan saya lakukan. Saya pikir saya hanya sangat fokus di gym. aku sangat, sangat fokus. Saya hanya merasa sangat senang masuk dan saya bersyukur mendapatkan kesempatan ini.

“Malam ini adalah sesuatu yang harus saya buktikan kepada dunia bahwa saya kembali dan saya lebih kuat dari sebelumnya. Dia adalah pria yang sangat tangguh. Saya pikir akhirnya untuk saya, ada level haruskah aku lebih bersabar? Atau haruskah saya melakukannya?? Sesuatu yang saya pelajari dalam pertarungan Inoue adalah untuk membunuh. Dan itulah yang saya lakukan. saya sabar, tapi aku tahu dia cukup terluka sehingga aku bisa membawanya keluar.”

Dalam co-fitur, Puerto RicoSubriel Matias (17-1, 17 Biaya) memberikan tampilan pukulan kuat lainnya power, mogok sebelumnya-tak terkalahkanBatyr Jukebayev (18-1, 14 Biaya) sampai tendangan sudut Jukembayev menghentikan pertarungan setelah delapan ronde yang memukau.

“Saya pikir ini yang diharapkan semua orang. Semua orang tahu itu akan menjadi perang yang hebat,” kata Matias. “Ini akan berakhir dengan KO apakah saya akan tersingkir atau Jukembayev akan tersingkir.. Saya hanya senang saya yang menjatuhkannya.”

Matias membuktikan dirinya sebagai salah satu yang terbaik di divisi bertumpuk, tapi kemenangan terakhir ini tidak mudah. Jukebayev dari Kazakhstan keluar dengan kuat, mendaratkan kombinasi pukulan hook-kanan kanan di lantai atas dari posisi kidalnya yang menarik perhatian Matias pada awalnya.

Jukebayev mendorong kecepatan di detik. Matias mulai melepaskan tangannya di yang ketiga, melempar kombinasi ke kepala dan tubuh. Kedua kombatan sekarang sepenuhnya dihangatkan, menyiapkan panggung untuk putaran keempat yang bisa menjadi kandidat untuk “Round of the Year.”


Itu dimulai ketika sebuah hook kiri yang keras membuat Jukebayev terhuyung-huyung dan membawanya ke kanvas. Matias berusaha untuk menutup pertunjukan tetapi Jukembayev bertahan, membersihkan kepalanya dan mulai mendaratkan tembakannya sendiri. Dengan satu menit tersisa di bait, Jukembayev mengejutkan Matias dengan umpan silang kiri. Alih-alih clinching, Matias melawan api dengan api, membawa orang banyak keluar dari tempat duduk mereka dengan aksi kaki-ke-kaki sampai bel berbunyi.

Matias tidak pernah berhenti maju. Mengikuti seperenam satu sisi, Jukebayev kembali ke sudutnya dengan kedua mata bengkak tertutup. Bolak-balik terjadi di ronde ketujuh saat Jukembayev memukul Matias dengan dua hook kanan menjelang akhir ronde..

Matias kembali ke kursi pengemudi di ronde kedelapan, menggebrak Jukebayev dengan kedua tinjunya. Total, dia mengalahkan Jukebayev dengan 100 pukulan (234/608 untuk 134 /409) dan lebih akurat (38.5% untuk 32.8%). Akumulasi pukulan sudah cukup untuk meyakinkan sepak pojok Jukembayev untuk meminta pertarungan dihentikan.

“Dia tahu dia tidak akan rugi. Dia masuk dan melakukan segalanya dengan kuat,” kata Matias. “Dia tahu bahwa yang bisa dia lakukan hanyalah menjatuhkan saya untuk menang. Saya akan melakukan hal yang sama. Itu adalah hati seorang pejuang dan dia memiliki semua rasa hormat saya.

“Setelah putaran keempat itu, Maksud saya dia adalah petarung yang sangat kompetitif, jadi itu berubah menjadi perang setelah itu. Tanganku naik ke dia juga. Itu adalah pertarungan besar. Saya pasti memiliki lawan lain yang sangat bagus, tapi ini adalah salah satu yang telah memberi saya ujian terberat. ”

Di pembuka siaran, Gary Antuanne Russell (14-0, 14 Biaya) melanjutkan pendakiannya ke peringkat super ringan. Russell yang tak terkalahkan menjadi yang pertama menghentikan yang kasarJovanie santiago (14-2-1, 10 Biaya), mendominasi Santiago sampai wasit Sharon Sands menghentikan pertandingan setelah ronde keenam atas saran tendangan sudut Santiago.

“Tujuannya adalah mengeluarkan pria itu sesegera mungkin dan keluar tanpa cedera,” kata Russel. “Saya hanya ingin mengatakan bahwa Santiago adalah lawan kelas-A. Banyak orang mengira dia mengalahkan Adrien Broner. Saya ingin Adrien Broner sekarang.”

Dengan kakak laki-laki dan Juara Kelas Bulu Dunia WBC Gary Russell Jr. bekerja di sudutnya, Gary Antuanne mengendalikan aksi dari bel pembukaan opening. Itu 2016 Olympian melakukan jab dan langsung meninggalkan posisi kidal, menjentikkan kepala Santiago ke belakang beberapa kali pada awalnya.

Russell, 24, terus mendarat di kiri di yang kedua dan ketiga. Di awal keempat, dia mengikuti lurus ke kiri ke tulang rusuk dengan hook kanan pendek di lantai atas yang menjatuhkan Santiago ke lutut. Santiago dari Puerto Rico dengan gagah berani bangkit dan selamat dari serangan lanjutan untuk keluar dari ronde.

“Yang penting bagi saya adalah untuk mengeksekusi putaran demi putaran, dan putaran demi putaran, Saya mengeksekusi lebih dan lebih. Ayahku menyuruhku pergi ke tubuh, kait kanan di lantai atas. Dia terbuka untuk itu,” kata Russel.

Russell tidak menunjukkan tanda-tanda melambat meskipun diperpanjang lebih dari empat ronde untuk pertama kalinya dalam karir profesionalnya. Ketinggian Ibukota, Md. produk mengalahkan Santiago di babak keenam, mendaratkan kombinasi hukuman di seluruh frame. Beberapa saat kemudian, pertarungan dihentikan.

“Sangat penting bagi saya untuk tampil jadi saya tidak hanya dikenal sebagai adik laki-laki Gary Russell,” kata Russel, yang mendarat 146 dari 444 pukulan (32.9%). “Saya berasal dari latar belakang petarung yang luar biasa. Kami sedang membangun sebuah dinasti.

“Seberapa cepat saya ingin kembali ke ring? Jika saya bisa bertarung dengan kartu Deontay Wilder, itu akan sangat bagus.”

Siaran SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING hari Sabtu akan diputar ulang pada hari Minggu, Mei 30 di 9 a.m. ET/PT pada SHOWTIME dan Senin, Mei 31 di 10 p.m. ET/PT pada SHOWTIME EXTREME.

Berikut adalah apa yang para pejuang harus mengatakan Kamis:

NORDINE OUBAALI

"Iya nih, we’ve sparred but training is training. When you go into a fight, it’s not the same. Every fight is different and I know on Saturday I will put on a great show with Nonito Donaire because I know he’s a good boxer but I know I’m the best. I trained so hard for this and now I’m ready to fight. I want to show everybody that the best two bantamweights in boxing today are fighting on Saturday.

"Iya nih, he’s had an outstanding career and he has power but I believe I have more power than him. I know I have the power. He’s a good boxer but I’m the world champion and on Saturday I’m going to show the world who is the best. I know I am the best. I respect Nonito. He’s had a good career but I’m the best in the division.

“The difference in the fight is going to be I want to win more. I want to continue to make history and stay as the world champion in this division. I know that it’s my time. I want this more than he does.

“If I’m victorious, why not have my next fight be for the unification? I want to make history every time and this is my motivation. I’m here because I love boxing and I want to face the best boxers every time. I’m facing Nonito Donaire and that’s great for my career. I just like to fight and this is my life.”

NONITO DONAIRE

“It would be great to win the title at 38 years old and become the oldest champion at 118 pon, but let’s keep it going. Let’s make it 40. Let’s make it 42. There ain’t no stopping me. Mental, I’m very grateful but at the same time I’m just very ready.

“I’m always healthy and the reason why I can compete with anybody is because I keep myself healthy and I work hard. There’s nothing less than 100 percent every time I’m in that gym.

“I’m very hard-headed so I don’t always do what people tell me to do. People can say that it’s their time. But I also have my time and I’m always going to be the one who concedes their time or makes that decision. It’s still my time.

“It’s going to be a great fight. Oubaali is the champion for a reason. He’s been through it in terms of the amateurs and making it here. So we’re not underestimating any of that. But I’ve fought in this venue many times and I always make magical fights in the first place. It’s always going to be magical with me. I’m a unicorn.

“The difference in this fight is going to be my hunger. He’s younger than me but I have the hunger. We both have an objective and that’s what’s going to make this a great fight.

“I want to fight the best out there. I want the rematch with Naoya Inoue and I want to get all the belts. The only thing I haven’t accomplished in boxing is becoming undisputed champion. I’ve done everything else. Fighter of the Year. Knockout of the Year. Multiple championships. Four-division champion. You name it. That’s my main goal. Get the belt and put them all together.

“Bantamweight is my real weight. I’ve always fought in the heavier division because of the excitement, the challenge and the lucrative offer or the names at that time. Saat Ini, I’m here where I belong and this is where I’m really strong.

“The layoff will not be a factor at all. The time off helped me out. Just being out of the ring helped my body recover. And the eagerness and the hunger is there more than ever. It was a blessing for me.”

SUBRIEL MATIAS

“I will be his toughest test without question and come Saturday night, everybody will find out why I’m saying that.

“I believe him when he says that he has the tools to get a stoppage on Saturday. But it’s not just a matter of saying, on Saturday night he has to prove it. If it’s going to come out of your mouth, then you have to prove it.

“We’re both knockout artists and with what we’re looking at, this fight should not finish by a decision.

“I don’t have much to say about that fight against Petros Ananyan. Those that saw me lose, I lost. There’s nothing I can say about it. But those that know boxing know that I’ve been progressing and improving and you all will see that on Saturday.”

BATYR JUKEMBAYEV

“I had a great training camp. I am ready for Saturday night. I know that he’s a good fighter but I promise that I will be ready.

“We will see Saturday night whether it’s going to end in a knockout. I’ll show you what I’m made of and you will all see.”

GARY ANTUANNE RUSSELL

“I’m in the hurt business. He’s a slugger. If he wants to come in there and slug with me, he will feel my power. He will see how intelligent I am. Not just mentally, but physically with my hands. Seperti saya katakan, I’m in the hurt business. I come to hurt.

“Pardon my lack of Spanish, but what you are going to see is, ‘la violencia.’ He’s going to bring his pressure. He’s going to bring punches in bunches and I believe that’s all he can bring. If he’s been training and trying to perfect himself for my style of fighting, that’s fine. You’re not supposed to come in here one-dimensional. A diamond shines from all sides.

“The only thing I can say is this venue is going to promote blood, sweat and tears and the desire of people to be great. I’m definitely one of them. I’ve been in the gym giving my blood, my sweat and my tears and I’m bringing all of that to this venue come Saturday night.

“I definitely want to stay more active. That’s always been my plan. The pandemic slowed things down. Fans always tell me they want to see me get back in there…I just tell them, me too. The fighters aren’t the ones pulling all of the strings. Should I be more active? Tentu saja. I want to be more active.

“I want to show that I’m the cream of the crop. I’m a superstar. The light hasn’t been shining on me because there’s a lot of other things going on. Sampai saat itu, you’re going to have to wait and see. Come Saturday, it will be a great show. There will be some sparks and fireworks. I have an opponent that’s not willing to lay down. If he’s not willing to, I must make him lay down.”

JOVANIE SANTIAGO

“I know that he’s a good fighter. An Olympian. He’s young and he’s going to come fight. I’m going to come to fight too, so if the fight finishes early, then it finishes early.

“I just have to work round-by-round, throw punches and win one round at a time. After I beat Russell, everybody is going to be on my side.

“This is my weight. This is where I’m most comfortable. I’ve always been a 140-pounder and Saturday that’s what I’m going to demonstrate.

“This time, I’m fighting at my actual weight. Saya merasa kuat. I’m coming to work round-by-round and on Saturday everybody will see what I’m all about.”

HOUSTON- (Mei 26, 2021) – Former NFL star wide receiverChad Johnsonmade a name for himself throughout his storied career by combining elite on-field production with highlight-reel celebrations and an outspokenness that made him a household name. Saat Ini, he will look to take that same formula into his boxing debut when he steps into the ring for an exhibition against versatile fighterBrian Maxwellpada hari Minggu, June 6 as part of the Mayweather vs. Paul SHOWTIME PPV event at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens.

In addition to bringing his brand of entertainment to the event, Johnson compared his own boxing style to one of the sport’s most unique fighters.

“I’m transitioning that flair you saw from me on the football field all into this sport,” said Johnson. “To me, my style is like Emanuel Augustus. Once I got those basic fundamentals down to a tee, I could add that trickery to my game.”

A long-time fan and student of the sweet science, Johnson never believed that he’d have this opportunity to box on this stage. Namun Begitu, once he received word from Mayweather and knew how long he’d have to prepare, he jumped on the chance presented.

“I never thought about stepping in the ring,” said Johnson. “I never thought there would be an opportunity to do so. But I love boxing. I’m friends with every boxer out there because I love and study all of it. I didn’t expect anything like this to happen. When Floyd called, the first thing I wanted to know, was how much time I had to prepare. Once I knew that I had enough time that I could look like myself in there, I knew I could pull it off.”

Always pushing the boundaries of what the public expects from athletes, Johnson will add another feather into what has been a remarkable career as an athlete and entertainer with this fight on June 6.

“This is a one-time thing,” said Johnson. “I’ve done some crazy things in life, and this is one to add and scratch off the bucket list. I’m coming in there to have fun and entertain.”

Berikut adalah apa yang para pejuang harus mengatakan Selasa:

JEAN PASCAL

“I’m very excited about the rematch. I’ve been training in Puerto Rico since December. I’ve been waiting this whole time for the rematch and I’m ready. I respect Badou, but he’s always whining after he loses. The judges said I won the fight and that’s it.

“The first fight, in the first six rounds I did everything well. I might have gotten a little overconfident. I took it a bit too easy after that. The fight got close because of that knockdown he got that wasn’t from a real punch. Without that, it wouldn’t have even been close. We’re going to settle this June 6 di Miami.

“I think I just have to pace myself a little better this fight. I got over excited because I’ve sparred with Badou before and know what I can do. I am a veteran, so I shouldn’t have gotten too excited like that. As far as knocking him down again in this fight, my mom taught me that anything you can do once, you can do twice.

“I do believe that Badou respects my power. If he doesn’t, then he better watch that fourth round again. But I also have skills with my power. I am naturally-gifted and I have the better skills. I was born for this sport and built to win.

“I really think the work in the gym will help so I don’t have ring rust. Saya seorang veteran. I’ve been here and done that. At this age, it’s better to have more rest than to be over trained. I had the right intensity in camp to make sure I’m not over trained.

“He’s coming for revenge and I’m coming with bad intentions. Ini akan menjadi pertunjukan besar, so make sure you tune-in for this one.”

JACK Badou

“I’m feeling great with my new trainer Jonathon Banks. Physically I’m in amazing shape and I can’t wait. Another week and a half and it’s all going to happen.

“This has been in the works since our first fight. Last year Floyd called me and said, ‘it’s on.’ Then the pandemic hit and it got pushed back. There is a reason there is a rematch, because everyone knows who won that fight. It’s better late than never. I was back in the gym Monday after the first fight.

“There were three judges and Julie Lederman had it for me and the two other guys had never judged a big fight before. We have two judges for this fight: the right hand and the left hand. Itu dia. I’m very confident for this fight and I’m not worried about the judges. I know Jean Pascal is a warrior, and I’m a warrior. Aku hanya siap untuk melawan.

“Looking at the past, iya nih, I need to start faster. Setiap pertarungan, that can apply. I will listen to my corner, and we’re going to figure out how to win the fight. By any means we need.

“He can say whatever he wants about when I knocked him down. I hit him five straight times and he swung and missed and I hit him. That’s why he went down.

“This is going to be a firefight. We already know that. Tune in to this fight. Boxing is not a game and I’m going to show everyone that and try to steal the show.

“I’ve watched the last fight once or twice, maybe three times. I just need to make some small adjustments. You can always do better. I’m more confident than last time. I know we are both warriors. We’ve fought everyone. We’re the same age (Jack is 37; Pascal 38), even though I look a little bit better. I’m looking younger. Nobody has seen my birth certificate. I’m not really 37. I’m 27.”

JARRETT HURD

“Training camp has been great. I haven’t fought in a year and a half, so I had a chance to really take my time with this camp. I’ve had a lot of time to put in the work. I’m training with fighters like Terence Crawford, Shakur Stevenson, Troy Isley and a lot more. We’re all out here working day after day.

“Arias is a great fighter. This is going to be the type of toe-to-toe fight I like. He’s going to be there in front of me and ready to fight. Dia tidak pernah berhenti, so I’ll be prepared to go the distance.

“We’ve seen this story before from Arias. He talks a big game but look at his fights against top fighters. It doesn’t matter what weight I’m at, Arias knows what’s coming. I suffered a loss, but I got the win in my last fight and I’m on my way back.

“I just need a dominant win on June 6. Luis Arias can make it ugly, but I have to go win convincingly and let everyone know I’m back. I don’t want to win in a sloppy way, I want to look good doing it.

“He might think he’s catching me at the right time, but it’s not going to be a good time for him on June 6. Saya dapat kotak dan saya bisa bang, tidak masalah. We’ll decide on fight night which style I’m going to use. I know that I can beat him either way.

“I tried to work on my bad habits after my loss. I was a straight-forward guy who just came at you. I wanted to show in my last fight against Francisco Santana that I can use my height and range if I need to. I wanted to box all 10 rounds and I did that.

“I still have too much unfinished business at 154-pounds. I have a lot of fights, including my rematch against Julian Williams, that I still want to get. I want to regain my titles. Me and Jermell Charlo is probably the biggest fight at 154 sekarang juga. I want to handle that before I move up in weight.”

LUIS ARIAS

“Camp has been excellent. Saya senang untuk melawan. I think this is a perfect fight and a perfect opportunity. It’s a great matchup. I’ve been working on the right things to make sure I’m one hundred percent prepared for this fight and I think I’m catching Jarrett Hurd at the right time. He’s switching styles. He really doesn’t know how he wants to fight.

“When this fight was brought to me, he was ranked No. 1 at the Ring Magazine at 154 and that’s part of why I wanted this fight. Leonard Ellerbe asked if I was willing to fight Hurd, and I said one hundred percent. It’s all about challenging yourself. This is another challenge and I never turn down a challenge. I’ve been in there with the best and there’s nothing that Jarrett Hurd can bring to the table that I haven’t already seen.

“A win puts me right back in the mix. I’ve always been just one step away from really getting into the mix with the big guys. My last couple fights have all been just one fight away from getting that world title fight. Once I beat Jarrett Hurd on June 6, I’ll be right there with the big dogs. He’s calling out Jermell Charlo and he wants to fight all these other big names, but he’s going to have to get through me. If he loses to me, I’ll be in position for the fights that he wants.

“It’s going to be a hard fight. If he wants to bang, we can bang. If he says he wants to box, he’s not the better boxer. But there’s only one way to find out and we’re going to find out in two weeks. I have to do everything that I can do to make sure that I show up and I impress.

“I’m still young and I’m still fighting my way through. I just needed to make the proper adjustments. I’m not going to be a desperate fighter. I’m going to go in there and fight the way I fight. I’ve always had championship-level fighting in me, but I just haven’t shown it. This is a perfect opportunity for me to show it.

“I’m coming after him. Aku harus menang. He’s not going to have to find me. Aku akan berada di sana. If I have to box him in the middle of the ring or if I have to put my head in his chest and dog him out, then that’s what I got to do. From the opening bell to the final bell, if we make it to the final bell, I’m going to be on him. We’ll see what type of adjustments he makes, but I don’t feel he’s a better inside fighter than me and I don’t feel like he’s a better boxer than me.”

LEONARD Ellerbe, CEO Mayweather Promotions

“The world is buzzing about this whole event, including our terrific undercard with two great professional bouts. Hurd vs. Arias is going to be a scintillating bout. I’ve seen Luis up close and personal during this training camp and I know that he’s 100% prepared and ready to pull off the upset. Hurd on the other hand is looking to maintain his footprint in the 154-pound division and prove he’s the best at that weight.

“Pascal and Jack had a fantastic bout a year and a half ago on SHOWTIME. Dari bel pembukaan, those guys proved they are great warriors and we expect nothing less in the rematch on June 6. The fans are truly in for a treat on that night.

“The energy between these four fighters today has been incredible. As the promoter of this event, Saya senang, so I can only imagine what the fans are in for. Hurd and Arias are both looking to make a statement, and that’s going to roll right into Pascal against Jack, who are going to pick up right where they left off in their first fight.”

ATLANTA (Mei 20, 2021) – Four-time world champion Gervonta “Tank” Davis and undefeated WBA Super Lightweight Champion Mario “El Azteca” Barrios went face-to-face Thursday at a press conference to preview their SHOWTIME PPV main event taking place Saturday, Bulan Juni 26 at the award-winning State Farm Arena in Atlanta in an event presented by Premier Boxing Champions.

One of boxing’s biggest stars at just 26-years-old, Davis will take on a career-defining challenge in the undefeated Barrios, as he sets his sights on capturing a title in a third weight class. With a victory, Davis will hold world championships in three different divisions simultaneously, a feat only accomplished by a few fighters in history. Standing in his way is the undefeated 26-year-old Barrios, who owns a 9-0 record with eight knockouts during his 140-pound reign and holds a six-inch height advantage over Davis.

Davis returns to fight at State Farm Arena after selling out the venue in December 2019 during a star-studded event that saw him stop former champion Yuriorkis Gamboa in the 12thand final round to capture a lightweight title.

Tickets for the live event at State Farm Arena, yang dipromosikan oleh Mayweather Promotions, GTD Promosi dan TGB Promosi, go on sale tomorrow, Hari Jumat, Mei 21 di 10 a.m. DAN, dan dapat dibeli di ticketmaster.com.

Here is what the press conference participants had to say Thursday at State Farm Arena:

GERVONTA DAVIS

“Camp has been great for me. We know that Barrios is a bigger guy and that he can punch. We’re working hard each day in the gym, because we’re going up against a big task on June 26.

“We all have challenges we go through in life, and that’s what makes us strong. This is another challenge that I have on my road to success. I’m ready to walk through it and keep pushing.

“We know this is a dangerous fight. Barrios is coming with power and you know for sure I’m coming with power. Semoga orang terbaik menang.

“I took this fight because I want to be great. All the other big names at lightweight had scheduled fights so I felt like I wanted to go out and beat the best fighter out there for me.

“Even if he is bigger than me on fight night, tidak masalah. This is all part of the sport. My goal is to break him down. If I can get him out of there, I’ll get him out of there. If it goes 12 putaran, jadi itu. He’s big and strong, but he’s never faced anyone like me.

“We have to wait and see what happens on fight night. Different styles dictate what I need to show in the fight. We’ll see what he brings to the table, and then we’ll capitalize off of it.

“I’m not worried about losing any speed by adding weight. I’m going to be quick regardless. I think I’m going to be at my best at 140-pounds.

“Like all of the rest of my fights, this is going to be action packed. Don’t go get popcorn during the fight, because it could end at any moment. I bring what boxing needs, and that’s excitement. We all know when I fight, it’s never a boring fight. Dari putaran pertama, until whenever it ends, I just keep coming, in all of my fights. That’s what you’re going to see June 26.”

MARIO Barrios

“This is a huge opportunity for me. ‘Tank’ called me out. I know he’s trying to do something great, but this is a dangerous fight for him. It’s going to be an action-packed fight. We’ve never faced fighters like each other before. We’re going to see on June 26 if it’s the right move for him.

“I fight to represent my city and my people. I’m going to go out there and do my best to make everybody proud.

“They might be looking at my fight against Batyr Akhmedov closely. But I think he has a totally different style and that this fight will be different than what they expect if they just watch that match. I don’t know what they see in me to want this fight, but none of it matters to me. All the questions are going to be answered on June 26.

“’Tank’ is jumping up two weight classes. He’s doing something a lot of great fighters have done. He even said it: this isn’t an easy fight for him. We’re ready to face the best version of ‘Tank’ that anyone has ever seen and it’s going to be war.

“I was surprised when his name was brought up to me. But whether you like ‘Tank’ or not, he has one of the biggest names in boxing. This is the type of fight that can skyrocket my name up there to the top level of the sport.

“’Tank’ is a good fighter and a very explosive fighter. There is the question of whether he’s bringing his power up to 140. I don’t have any concerns about it though. He’s the guy who has to show people he can handle my power at this weight.

“I’m excited to be fighting in Atlanta. This is my first time here actually but I know the fans here are very passionate. I’m expecting to see a great turnout here at State Farm Arena.”

LEONARD Ellerbe, CEO Mayweather Promotions

“’Tank’ is a generational fighter. He has certain abilities that others just don’t. He’s special, but this is a dangerous fight for him. This is a tremendous challenge and I’m really excited for this fight.

“Atlanta is a hot market. Obviously the first fight they had in a long time was ‘Tank’ vs. Yuriorkis Gamboa and it was a packed sold out crowd in this building. The fans really enjoyed it. The city needs big events like this. We told the fans we were coming back and here we are.

“’Tank’ is chasing history. When you look back at a lot of all-time greats, they’ve gone through things no one else ever has. Looking to be a three-division champion at 26 years old is another example of him chasing greatness like that.

“’Tank’ is the most exciting fighter in the entire sport and he gives the fans what they want to see. He puts butts in seats. People gravitate to the way he fights. This new generation of fans that we have, they love him.”

The Baltimore-native also owns knockout performances in world title fights over Jesus Cuellar in 2018 and Yuriorkis Gamboa in 2019.

“I’m excited to make history on June 26 in Atlanta and become a three-division world champion,"Kata Davis. “Atlanta welcomed me with open arms for my fight against Gamboa and I couldn’t wait to come back and headline a spectacular SHOWTIME PPV card. Mario Barrios is an undefeated champion, but he hasn’t ever faced anyone like me before. Moving up to 140-pounds is a big challenge but I’ve been working hard in camp and I’ll be ready.

His first 140-pound bout came in 2017 and saw him increase his power from his previous performances. At super lightweight, Barrios has scored knockouts in every fight except the title-winning performance against Akhmedov, where his power was still on display with a pair of knockdowns.

“Fighting on SHOWTIME PPV is a dream come true and an opportunity that I’m going to take full advantage of,” said Barrios. “Gervonta Davis is a pound-for-pound champion and it’s going to be an honor sharing the ring with him. This fight is my shining moment and the pinnacle of the boxing world, on the biggest stage possible. Boxing fans around the globe will be watching this fight and I’m coming to shock the world. To all my Mexican fans, I’m going to bring this historic victory home for La Raza.”

A native of Orlando, Fla., Lubin is trained by acclaimed coach Kevin Cunningham as he continues his quest toward another title opportunity. Setelah karir amatir yang luar biasa, Lubin turned pro at 18 years old in 2013, eventually being named “Prospect Of The Year” by ESPN and Ring Magazine in 2016.

“I’m so ready for this fight and we’ve been working hard in preparation for Rosario,” said Lubin. “This fight is another step closer to getting that world title shot. Coach Cunningham and I have a great game plan in place. We know this is going to be a tough fight and the fans are going to see a much-improved version of myself. I’ve taken my training to the next level during this training camp. Rosario is a former world champion who I know is going to bring his best, which is going to make for a great night of boxing. This card is stacked, but I’m going to steal the show with an incredible performance. I will not be denied, I’m coming out on top. It’s Hammer Time!"

Rosario (20-2-1, 14 Biaya) will look to climb back into world title contention after losing his 154-pound belts to Jermell Charlo in their September 2020 bentrokan. The 26-year-old captured the WBA and IBF belts by stopping Julian Williams in one of 2020’s biggest upsets. Born in the Dominican Republic and now fighting out of Miami, Rosario rode an eight-fight unbeaten streak into the showdown with Williams, including victories over 154-pound contenders Jamontay Clark, Justin DeLoach, Jorge Cota and Marcos Hernandez. Coming into the Charlo matchup, Rosario had established his power by earning a stoppage victory or scoring a knockdown in seven of his previous nine contests.

“I make no excuses for losing the fight to Charlo, but that was then, and this is now,” said Rosario. “I have turned to a new page in my career with my new trainer Herman Caicedo. I will not lose again, especially in this fight against Lubin. He’s a great contender, and I respect his abilities, but I will knock him out on June 26.”

Philadelphia’s Williams (27-2-1, 16 Biaya) became a unified world champion at 154-pounds in May 2019 when he upset Jarrett Hurd in one of the year’s best fights, winning a close-quarters brawl by unanimous decision. The 31-year-old dropped the titles in his first defense, losing to Jeison Rosario in January 2020. Williams had been riding a five-fight winning streak going into the Rosario matchup, in which he added victories over former champion Ishe Smith and hard-hitting contender Nathaniel Gallimore to his ledger.

“This has been the longest layoff of my career, so I’m excited to get back in the ring,"Kata Williams. “Mendoza is a decent fighter. I’ve even been in the gym with him and he’s a good guy. But on June 26, it’s going to be all business. I just need to come out on top. He doesn’t have anything that I haven’t seen before. I know he’ll be ready because this is like the Super Bowl for him. So I know he’ll be ready, but I’ll be ready too. If I’m able to get the win, then it’s on to bigger and better opportunities. But I’m definitely not looking past Brian because I know how seriously he’s taking this fight.”

Mendoza (19-1, 13 Biaya) earned a career best-victory in his last outing, beating veteran contender Thomas LaManna by unanimous decision in August 2020. The 27-year-old has fought professionally since 2014, with his only defeat coming by a narrow split-decision in November 2019 against Larry Gomez. Mendoza was born in Albuquerque, New Mexico, where he won two New Mexico Golden Gloves Championships as an amateur, and currently fights out of Las Vegas.

“This fight against Julian Williams is just the fight I’ve been waiting for,” said Mendoza. “I’m planning to take full advantage of the opportunity. Julian Williams is a great fighter, but after June 26, the whole world is going to know that I belong at this level.”

Born in Uzbekistan and now fighting out of Los Angeles, Akhmedov (8-1, 7 Biaya) represented Turkey at the 2016 Permainan Olimpik. The 30-year-old turned pro in 2017 and won his first seven pro fights, with six coming by knockout. His lone blemish came in an action-packed title fight against Mario Barrios in September 2019, where he was able to survive two knockdowns to make it a close fight, before eventually losing by decision. Baru-baru ini, Akhmedov blasted out Ray Perez in the first round of their September 2020 bentrokan.

“I can’t wait to get back in the ring for a big fight on June 26,” said Akhmedov. “I’ve been training hard to get another shot at the title. I know that if I make a big statement and defeat a former world champion in Mendez, I expect my next fight will be for the title. I’m always in exciting fights that fans love, and this matchup is going to be no different.”

Mantan juara kelas bulu super, Mendez (25-6-3, 12 Biaya) memiliki reputasi untuk memberikan tantangan berat untuk olahraga terbaik dan telah terbukti menjadi pesaing yang tahan lama di 140-pon, including his most recent outing that saw him drop a split-decision to Richardson Hitchins last December. Di 2019, Mendez fought to back-to-back draws against super lightweight contenders Anthony Peterson and Juan Heraldez. Lahir di San Juan de La Maguana, Republik Dominika, Mendez sekarang bertarung melawan Yonkers, N.Y.. dan memiliki kemenangan atas Eddie Ramirez, Ivan Redkach and former titlist Miguel Vazquez. He has also gone toe-to-toe with former champions Rances Barthelemy and Robert Easter Jr.

“I am ready for anything Akhmedov brings and then a world title fight after,” said Mendez. “I believe that I beat Hitchins in my last fight, even though I was coming off a long layoff. I’m in great shape right now. Akhmedov is a hard puncher, but the fans are going to see me shine against him. There is a lot left in my tank and that will be obvious to everyone on June 26.”

The event also featured Mayweather Promotions’ fighters Jean Carlos Torres, Dorian Khan Jr., Jalil Hackett dan Micky Scala, who will compete in separate non-televised bouts on Sunday, Bulan Juni 6. Here is what the fighters had to say Tuesday from the Mayweather Boxing Club:

JACK Badou

“Floyd called me in January last year and told me the rematch was on for April. That was last year. It’s been done since we walked out of the ring the first time, but I’m happy it’s finally done. I’m happy it’s here and I’m ready to put on a show.

“I’m trying to perfect everything in preparation for this matchup. Better nutrition. Better conditioning. Better sparring. I’m trying to be better at everything.

“This is my second fight with my new trainer Johnathan Banks. The first was just a tune-up fight. It wasn’t a high-level fight. It was an eight-rounder, so it was just like a sparring session. But I’m in way better shape than I was in the last camp and I’m ready to go.

“My fight is going to be a hell of a fight. Everybody knows that. It was a Fight of the Year contender last time. Floyd vs. Logan is going to be entertainment. That’s a different kind of fight, but Floyd is going to put on a show. All of the eyeballs are going to be on that night so it’s going to be a great night.

“Pascal likes trying to get under my skin, but I’m too calm. I’m too confident for that. Pada akhir hari, he’s a veteran, I’m a veteran and it’s going to be a great fight night.

“I thought I won the first fight. 75 percent of everybody that watched the fight thought I won. There was only one judge that had experience, Julie Lederman, and she had me winning. The other two might have scored his so-called punches but it is what it is.

“Johnathan Banks is my new coach. He’s great. He’s only a year older than me so we have great chemistry together and everything has been working great. It was a little hard in the beginning to adjust to certain things, but now in camp I feel great in sparring and everything we’re doing right now.”

LUIS ARIAS

“It feels amazing to be involved in this event. For a fighter like me who’s been up and down, who was undefeated at one point and then lost it all, went from being one of the best to being overlooked, to be able to fight my way through and to be able to keep fighting and keep working to get back on this big stage is truly a blessing. Saya senang. Saya diberkati. I can’t wait to get on that stage.

“Boxing is my life and I had to make the necessary changes to get back to this level. I’ve already been to the highest level and I fell short. I got the experience of being there, I know what I need to do to get there and I made those necessary changes. It’s one of the reasons I came back to Vegas, to start training over here to get that experience, to get to that level and to get better. That’s what I’ve been doing and that’s why I’ve been able to prove that I still belong. Floyd saw it. I sparred Floyd. He sees that I still got it and I’m making the changes. He sees how my body is changing and he sees that I can still compete.”

JEAN CARLOS TORRES

“I’m very happy to be on this card. I am going to give the best fight that I can for all my fans. I’m going to do the best that I can.”

DORIAN KHAN JR.

“It feels good to be a part of this event. I’m just getting ready for my fight and focusing on that, but it’s a good opportunity so I’m ready.”

JALIL HACKETT

“It’s amazing to sign with Floyd Mayweather and be a part of this event. Ini mimpi yang menjadi kenyataan. I’ve worked so hard since I was eight years old and I’m finally here getting the fruits of my labor.”

MICKY SCALA

“It feels great to be part of the biggest event probably in boxing history. I’m super excited. My family and friends are super excited. We have a lot of fans that are excited and I can’t wait to put on a show. I’m very thankful to Mayweather Promotions for getting me on this card and giving me this opportunity. I’m going to make the best of it.

“That fight before the pandemic at Sam’s Town was a big motivation for me during the down time to stay ready because I knew another fight was going to come soon. My family was a big part of that motivation. I want to make sure that they can live however they want to, so I’m working hard every single day. I’ve been ready to fight since the day the pandemic started until now. I can’t wait to put on a show in Miami.”

LEONARD Ellerbe, CEO MAYWEATHER PROMOTIONS

“We have two hot events coming up. We have the Floyd event with him taking on Logan Paul. Tremendous undercard from top to bottom. We have all my pro debut guys. I call them my starting five. And then we have Chad Ochocinco who is going to be fighting in an exhibition. Everybody is dying to see that. And then we have former unified champion Jarrett Hurd taking on Mayweather Promotions’ own Luis Arias. I think that will be a tremendous fight. Those guys will be looking to steal the show in a 10-round bout. Dalam acara co-main, we have none other than Pascal vs. Dongkrak. That will be a war. Their first fight was a Fight of the Year and I expect nothing different. The fans are really in for a treat with that fight.

“We were just waiting for the right opportunity to make the Pascal vs. Jack rematch. This is a tremendous platform. It’s a huge event and it’s the type of platform that these two guys deserve, to be seen on a global situation around the world.

“My starting five is filled with top-tier talent. I know talent when I see it. Each and every one of these guys I’ve had a great look at up close and personal and I was beyond impressed. Floyd was also. All of them have big futures.

“Floyd Mayweather vs. Logan Paul is entertainment. Floyd is an entertainer. Logan Paul is an entertainer. One thing about the Paul brothers is they’ve shown they can have an impact on anything that they do. I’ve been very impressed with both of those guys, especially Logan. I call him the king of the internet. One thing about both of them is that they’ve been extremely consistent at what they’ve been doing. I’m not going to stand here and pretend that these guys are ready for championship fights because they’re not, but they work extremely hard and they’re very good at what they do.”
