Here is what the fighters had to say Friday from the JW Marriott Miami Turnberry:

BADOU JACK

“I’m just thankful that I’m still fighting on Sunday night. Now we have a new opponent and it’s going to be the same outcome. I’m in great shape and I can’t wait.

“Colina is just another guy. I respect him for coming in and stepping up as a late replacement. But I was going to win this fight on Sunday whether it was Pascal or anyone.

“I’m very frustrated about Jean Pascal. But I’m a pro and I can adjust no matter who is in front of me. I’m disappointed because I won the first fight against Pascal and I waited 18 months to get my revenge.

“I have a little anger that might get taken out on Colina, but it’s nothing personal, just business that I’m here to take care of on Sunday night.

“I don’t really care about the title too much, I really just cared about getting that revenge against Pascal. I waited so long for this and I could have taken different fights while I waited.

“He’s an undefeated guy so he’s going to come in here with a lot of confidence looking to show off his power. We’ll be ready though regardless how he comes into the fight. I had great sparring like always, so I’m prepared for what he’s going to bring.”

DERVIN COLINA

“I’d like to thank Team Badou Jack for the opportunity. Bu benim ne olduğunu. Bunun için doğdum. Come Sunday you guys will see what I do.

“I was scheduled to fight June 11 on a different card. The fight came a little bit earlier on June 6. But I’m ready to fight and there are no excuses for this fight. I’m coming to win at all costs. And you’ll see what I do on Sunday.

“I respect Badou and what he’s done in this sport, but I know that I have everything I need to shock the world come Sunday night.

“I have nothing to lose and that makes me dangerous. I’m going to leave everything in the ring and announce to the whole world that I’m a fighter you’re going to be hearing from.”

JARRETT HURD

“Everyone knows I have unfinished business at 154-pounds. I’m not looking past Arias though. This fight is just a stop at middleweight because I’m going back down to take care of that business.

“We’ve had an amazing training camp with my new trainer Kay Koroma in Colorado Springs. I have a chip on my shoulder. I think a lot of people forgot who I was. I had the best resume in the weight class. Come Sunday, I’m going to remind everyone who I am.

“It’s always strictly business and it’ll be the same on Sunday. Arias is obsessed with my weight and thinks I’m struggling. But he needs to focus on what he needs to do on Sunday night.

“I don’t know where I’m rated right now, but I’m the best fighter at 154 kilo. Showing that to the world is the goal on Sunday.

“We just took it back to the basics in training camp with my coach Kay Koroma. You can always learn more in the sport.

“I’ve been boxing for 15 years now and coach Koroma just helped me evolve the things I already knew. He’s got me not just coming forward and using my strength, but moving around and boxing a little bit.”

LUIS ARIAS

“I think the narrative is they needed an opponent for Jarrett Hurd, and I wasn’t looking so great lately. But people tend to forget I was 18-0 before I got my first blemish. When I was with Floyd Mayweather, Ben 9-0 and that’s when I was most comfortable. That’s the mentality I’m taking into this fight.

“I’ve been around Floyd since December. I’ve been in Vegas training in the altitude, just like Hurd. I’m in tip-top shape for this fight and he still has to figure out how he’s going to fight.

“Now the boxing world is going to be watching this fight. I’m going to be on my Ps and Qs and he won’t have to look for me. He will have to pick and choose once he gets hit on Sunday what style he wants to fight.

“This is a must-win for me. This is a great name for my resume. I haven’t ducked anyone. I’ve taken every name that’s been brought to me. When his name came up I said absolutely. I’m ready and I’m an old-school fighter. I’d fight you in this backyard, that backyard, any backyard. On Sunday it will show.

“He’s the one who has got the issue with the weight. The fight doesn’t really make much sense at 160 because he’s not ranked and wants to go back down to 154. But it’s too big of an opportunity and too big of a card to complain about the weight. We’re going to put the gloves on and whatever he weighs, he weighs. This is going to be the best fight on the card.”

CHAD JOHNSON

“I feel really good. I’ve been using boxing to prepare for football throughout the years, but I’ve never done it to this magnitude. To prepare for an actual fight, is something new. I’m facing a guy who does this for a living, so I’m not taking this lightly at all.

“I was always nervous before every kickoff. So I’d be a fool to say I’m not nervous going into something where I’m out of my element.


“One thing I’m extremely good at, is when there’s lights, cameras and a crowd, is going in there and entertaining.

“I’ve been working with Jorge Masvidal a little bit, but the last few weeks have been in Houston with Jermall and Jermell Charlo. That’s where most of my work has been. I’ve been doing everything possible to make sure I look the part Sunday night.

“I’m out of my element, so of course I’m approaching this fight humbly. He’s coming to knock my head off. Football is something I did all my life, that’s why I walked the way I did. I can’t be arrogant and take this fight lightly.”

BRIAN MAXWELL

“I don’t know how my name came up for this fight. But like everyone has said, ‘Who is Brian Maxwell?’ That’s been a trending topic on every social media. Ama ne tahmin? Bugün, you all know who Brian Maxwell is. And I’m excited about this. It’s a perfect matchup for me. It’s a perfect matchup for Chad. The best of both worlds. Coming from a fan. My hashtag on social media has become ‘Idols Become Rivals.’ And this is the perfect time and the perfect moment for me and him. Like I told him over the phone, I’m a huge fan. But the fanboy has gone out the window. Now we have to entertain and that’s what we’re going to do.

“This is an exhibition, so we are coming to entertain the fans and put on a show. Ancak, aynı zamanda, we are two men who are coming in front of each other and have to fight. No matter the outcome, we’re going to put on a great fight.

“I’ve followed this man since Day 1. I know his every move. I’ve modeled myself after him and it’s like fighting myself. I’m going to be humble about this and we are going to put on a show for everyone.

“That has been the question, what round am I going to knock him out. I’m here to entertain and to have fun. This is a great opportunity.”

LEONARD Ellerbe, Mayweather Promosyonlar CEO'su

“We have a stacked undercard on Sunday night. I’ve promoted tons of events and this is one that I’m really looking forward to, because it gives us an array of great fights in addition to a little something different.

“I’m really looking forward to this card. South Florida has been buzzing since we announced this event. We can’t wait for the great crowd and the tons of fans tuning in from all around the world.

“When I think of Chad Johnson, he’s a showman. He does so many different things really well. He’ll be making his foray into the boxing industry in what should be a terrific bout against Brian Maxwell. Chad is looking to possibly steal the show, which is what he’s known for doing.

“Former unified champ Jarrett Hurd is a great champion and I’ve known him for many years. He’s looking to get back and make his mark where he left off. He’s let it be known that after this fight, he’s going to take control of the 154-pound division again. He’ll be up against Mayweather Promotions own Luis Arias and I’ve had the opportunity to witness Arias preparation firsthand. I can tell you right now he’s more than prepared to upset Jarrett.

“In the co-main, I can’t say enough about Badou Jack. He’s a great champion in the ring and a terrific example outside of the ring. He does so much to help people around the world and Floyd and I are really proud of him. We know he’s going to put on a great show Sunday.

“When it comes to this undercard, the fans are in for a great treat. It’s going to be nothing but action from top to bottom.”

İlk dünya şampiyonluğunu kazandıktan on dört yıl sonra, "Filipinli Flaş", Hall of Fame referanslarını sansasyonel bir dördüncü tur nakavt galibiyetiyle pekiştirdiKuzey OubaaliCumartesi gecesi, Carson'daki Dignity Health Sports Park'taki SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING ana etkinliğinde WBC World Bantamweight unvanını yakalamak için, Halife. Premier Boks Şampiyonları etkinliğinde.

"Kral geri döndü,” Donaire daha sonra ışınlandı. “Ben sadece kalabalığı seviyorum. Bütün arkadaşlarım, aile, gelen tüm boks hayranları çok teşekkür ederim. Sizler harikasınız.”

38 yaşındaki Donaire (41-6, 27 KOs) şimdi 118 kiloda şimdiye kadarki en yaşlı dünya şampiyonu. Oubaali'yi bırakırken kariyerinin kartviziti olan sol eliyle başardı. (17-1, 12 KOs) toplamda üç kez.

"Bu yaşta olmak mesele değil, bu benim performansımla ilgili,dedi Donaire. “Büyüme yeteneğim hakkında. yaşının ne olduğunun önemi yok bence, ama zihinsel olarak ne kadar güçlüsün. dan öğrendiklerim [Naoya] Inoue kavgası geri döndüm. Hala bu seviyede rekabet edebilirim. Bütün zaman boyunca savaşmadım, öğreniyordum. Bir sonrakine hazırım."

Bir ilk turun ardından, Donaire ikinci günde işe gitti., Oubaali'yi aşağı yürümek ve gümbürtüyle karşı koymak. Donaire ilk nakavtını üçüncü devrenin başlarında kaydetti., Oubaali'yi ticari marka sayacı sol kancasıyla düşürüyor. Fransız dengesiz ayaklar üzerinde yükseldi ve Donaire atladı, Oubaali, raund bitmeden bir iki saniye önce başka bir sol kroşeyle yere düşene kadar daha fazla büyük şut attı. Tekrar, Oubaali ayağa kalktı, sersemlemiş ama savaşmaya istekli.

Dördüncüde son hızla geldi. Donaire, Oubaali'yi ustalıkla ringin etrafında döndürdü, sol aparkatın Oubaali'yi üçüncü ve son kez tuvale buruşturmasına neden olduğu yerde onu iplere tutturmak. Hakem Jack Reiss hemen iptal etti. Durdurmanın resmi zamanı 1:52 dördüncü turdan.

“Üç yıldır dünya şampiyonu olmak. Dokuz kez dünya şampiyonu. bu harika,dedi Donaire. "Buraya geldim ve kendimi gerçekten iyi hissettim.. Bugün tam olarak ne olacağını biliyordum. tam olarak ne yapacağımı biliyordum. Sanırım spor salonunda çok odaklandım. ben çok, çok odaklanmış. Geldiğimde gerçekten iyi hissettim ve bu fırsatı elde ettiğim için minnettardım..

"Bu gece dünyaya geri döndüğümü ve her zamankinden daha güçlü olduğumu kanıtlamam gereken bir şeydi.. çok sert bir adamdı. sonunda benim için düşünüyorum, daha sabırlı olmalı mıyım diye bir seviye vardı? yoksa bunun için mi gitmeliyim? Inoue savaşında öğrendiğim bir şey öldürmeye gitmekti.. Ve tam olarak bunu yaptım. sabırlıydım, ama onu dışarı çıkarabilecek kadar incindiğini biliyordum.”

Eş özelliği de, Porto Riko enSubriel Matias (17-1, 17 KOs) başka bir güçlü delme ekranı sundu, daha önce yenilmeyen kırmaBatyr Jukembayev (18-1, 14 KOs) Jukembayev'in köşesi sekiz perçinleme turundan sonra maçı durdurana kadar.

"Bence herkesin beklediği şey bu. Herkes bunun büyük bir savaş olacağını biliyordu.,"dedi Matias. "Ben nakavt mı olacağım yoksa Jukembayev e mi nakavt olacak, bu nakavtla sona erecekti.. Onu nakavt edenin ben olduğum için mutluyum."

Matias, kendini kümelenmiş bir bölümde en iyilerden biri olarak kabul ediyor, ama bu son galibiyet kolay olmadı. Kazakistan Jukembayev güçlü çıktı, ilk önce Matias'ın dikkatini çeken güney pençe duruşundan yukarı doğru bir sağ kanca-sağ aparkat kombinasyonunu indirdi..

Jukembayev ikinci golü attı. Matias üçüncüde ellerini bırakmaya başladı., kafa ve vücuda kombinasyon halinde atma. Her iki savaşçı da artık tamamen ısınmıştı., “Yılın Turu” için aday olabilecek dördüncü tur için zemin hazırlıyor.


Sert bir sol kroşe Jukembayev'i sendeleyip tuvale sürüklediğinde başladı.. Matias gösteriyi kapatmaya çalıştı ama Jukembayev devam etti, kafasını temizledi ve kendi atışlarını yapmaya başladı. Kıtada bir dakika kala, Jukembayev, Matias'ı sol çaprazla şaşırttı. perçinlemek yerine, Matias ateşe ateşle karşılık verdi, zil çalana kadar ayak parmaklarına hareketle kalabalığı koltuklarından çıkarmak.

Matias asla öne çıkmayı bırakmadı. Tek taraflı altıncıyı takiben, Jukembayev iki gözü şişmiş bir şekilde köşesine döndü. Jukembayev, Matias'ı raundun sonuna doğru iki sağ kancayla vızıldadığında, yedinci sırada bir ileri bir geri gitti..

Matias sekizinci turda sürücü koltuğuna geri döndü, Jukembayev'e iki yumruğuyla vurmak. Toplamda, Jukembayev'i geride bıraktı 100 yumruklar (234/608 için 134 /409) ve daha doğruydu (38.5% için 32.8%). Darbelerin birikmesi Jukembayev'in köşesini maçın durdurulmasını talep etmeye ikna etmek için yeterliydi..

Kaybedecek bir şeyi olmadığını biliyordu.. O geldi ve her şeyi güçlü yapıyordu,"dedi Matias. "Yapabileceği tek şeyin kazanmak için beni nakavt etmek olduğunu biliyordu.. Ben de aynı şeyi yapardım. Bu bir savaşçının kalbi ve benim tüm saygım var.

“Bu dördüncü turdan sonra, Yani o çok rekabetçi bir dövüşçü, bu noktadan sonra savaşa dönüştü. ellerim de ona gidiyor. Bu büyük bir kavga oldu. Kesinlikle çok iyi olan başka rakiplerim oldu, ama bana en zor sınavı veren bu oldu.”

Telecast açıcıda, Gary Antuanne Russell (14-0, 14 KOs) süper hafif sıralarda yükselmeye devam etti. Yenilmez Russell, sağlamlığı durduran ilk kişi olduJovanie santiago (14-2-1, 10 KOs), Hakem Sharon Sands, Santiago'nun köşesinin önerisiyle altıncı raundun ardından müsabakayı durdurana kadar Santiago'ya hükmediyordu..

"Amaç, adamı mümkün olan en kısa sürede dışarı çıkarmak ve yara almadan çıkmak.,"Dedi Russell. "Sadece Santiago'nun A sınıfı bir rakip olduğunu söylemek istiyorum.. Birçok insan Adrien Broner'ı yendiğini düşünüyor. Adrien Broner'ı şimdi istiyorum."

Ağabeyi ve WBC Dünya Tüy Siklet Şampiyonu Gary Russell Jr ile. onun köşesinde çalışmak, Gary Antuanne aksiyonu açılış zilinden kontrol etti. The 2016 Olympian jab'ı çalıştı ve doğrudan güney pençe duruşunun arkasında kaldı, ilkinde Santiago'nun kafasını birkaç kez geriye doğru.

Russell, 24, ikinci ve üçüncü sırada sola inmeye devam etti. Dördüncünün başlarında, üst katta kısa bir sağ kancayla kaburgalara doğru düz bir sol takip etti ve bu da Santiago'yu dizine düşürdü. Porto Riko'nun Santiago'su cesurca ayağa kalktı ve takip eden saldırıdan kurtularak raundun dışında kaldı..

"Benim için önemli olan, teker teker yürütmektir., ve teker teker, giderek daha fazla yürütüyordum. Babam bana cesede gitmemi söyledi., sağ kroşe üst katta. O buna açıktı,"Dedi Russell.

Russell, profesyonel kariyerinde ilk kez dört turun ötesine geçmesine rağmen yavaşlama belirtisi göstermedi.. Başkent Tepeleri, Md. ürün altıncı sırada Santiago'yu dövdü, çerçeve boyunca iniş cezalandırma kombinasyonları. Dakikalar sonra, maç durduruldu.

"Performans yapmak benim için kesinlikle önemli, bu yüzden sadece Gary Russell'ın küçük erkek kardeşi olarak tanınmıyorum.,"Dedi Russell, kim indi 146 arasında 444 yumruklar (32.9%). “Mükemmel bir dövüşçü geçmişinden geliyorum. Bir hanedan inşa ediyoruz.

"Ne kadar çabuk ringe geri dönmek istiyorum?? Deontay Wilder kartında savaşabilseydim, bu harika olurdu."

Buradayım çünkü boksu seviyorum ve her seferinde en iyi boksörlerle yüzleşmek istiyorum. Nonito Donaire ile karşı karşıyayım ve bu kariyerim için harika. Sadece savaşmayı seviyorum ve bu benim hayatım.”

NONITO DONAIRE

"Her zaman sağlıklıyım ve herkesle rekabet edebilmemin nedeni kendimi sağlıklı tutmam ve çok çalışmam.. daha azı yok 100 o spor salonunda olduğum her zaman yüzde.

“Çok dik kafalıyım, bu yüzden her zaman insanların yapmamı söylediği şeyi yapmam. İnsanlar zamanlarının geldiğini söyleyebilir. Ama benim de zamanım var ve her zaman zamanını kabul eden ya da bu kararı veren ben olacağım.. hala benim zamanım.

"Harika bir dövüş olacak. Oubaali bir nedenden dolayı şampiyon. Amatörler açısından bunu yaşadı ve burada yapıyor. Yani hiçbirini hafife almıyoruz. Ama bu mekanda birçok kez dövüştüm ve her zaman ilk etapta büyülü dövüşler yaparım.. Benimle her zaman büyülü olacak. Ben bir tekboynuzum.

"Bu dövüşteki fark benim açlığım olacak.. Benden küçük ama açlığım var. İkimizin de bir amacı var ve bunu harika bir dövüş yapacak olan da bu..

"Orada en iyi dövüşmek istiyorum. Naoya Inoue ile rövanş maçı istiyorum ve tüm kemerleri almak istiyorum. Boksta başaramadığım tek şey tartışmasız şampiyon olmak. diğer her şeyi yaptım. Yılın Fighter. Yılın Nakavt. Çoklu şampiyonalar. Dört bölüm şampiyonu. Adını koy. asıl amacım bu. Kemeri al ve hepsini bir araya getir.

“Bantamweight benim gerçek kilom. Heyecandan dolayı hep ağır ligde savaştım., the challenge and the lucrative offer or the names at that time. Şimdi, 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.

“İkimiz de nakavt sanatçılarız ve baktığımız şeyle, bu kavga bir kararla bitmemeli.

"Petros Ananyan'a karşı verilen mücadele hakkında söyleyecek pek bir şeyim yok.. kaybettiğimi görenler, kaybettim. bu konuda söyleyebileceğim bir şey yok. Ama boksu bilenler, ilerlediğimi ve geliştiğimi biliyorlar ve bunu cumartesi günü hepiniz göreceksiniz."

BATIR JUKEMBAYEV

“Harika bir eğitim kampı geçirdim. cumartesi gecesi için hazırım. Onun iyi bir dövüşçü olduğunu biliyorum ama söz veriyorum hazır olacağım.

"Cumartesi gecesi nakavtla bitip bitmeyeceğini göreceğiz.. Size neyden yapıldığımı göstereceğim ve hepiniz göreceksiniz."

GARY ANTUANNE RUSSELL

“Ben zarar işindeyim. O bir tembel. Eğer oraya gelip benimle takılmak isterse, gücümü hissedecek. Ne kadar zeki olduğumu görecek. Sadece zihinsel olarak değil, ama fiziksel olarak ellerimle. Dediğim gibi, zarar işindeyim. zarar vermeye geldim.

“İspanyolca eksikliğimi bağışlayın, ama ne göreceksin, ‘la violencia.’ Baskısını getirecek. Demetler halinde yumruklar getirecek ve getirebileceği tek şeyin bu olduğuna inanıyorum.. Antrenman yapıyorsa ve kendini benim dövüş tarzım için mükemmelleştirmeye çalışıyorsa, bu iyi. Buraya tek boyutlu gelmemelisin. Her taraftan bir elmas parlıyor.

“Söyleyebileceğim tek şey, bu mekanın kanın tanıtımını yapacağıdır., ter ve gözyaşı ve insanların büyük olma arzusu. 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? Elbette. 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. O zamana kadar, you’re going to have to wait and see. Come Saturday, it will be a great show. There will be some sparks and fireworks. Yatmak istemeyen bir rakibim var. O istekli değilse, Onu yatırmalıyım."

JOVANIE SANTIAGO

"Onun iyi bir dövüşçü olduğunu biliyorum.. bir olimpiyatçı. O genç ve savaşmaya gelecek. ben de savaşmaya geleceğim, yani dövüş erken biterse, o zaman erken biter.

"Yalnızca teker teker çalışmak zorundayım, yumruk atmak ve her seferinde bir tur kazanmak. Russell'ı yendikten sonra, herkes benim tarafımda olacak.

"Bu benim ağırlığım. En rahat olduğum yer burası. Ben her zaman 140 librelik oldum ve Cumartesi göstereceğim şey bu..

"Bu zaman, Gerçek kilomda savaşıyorum. Ben güçlü hissediyorum. Her gün çalışmaya geliyorum ve Cumartesi günü herkes neyle ilgili olduğumu görecek."

CHAD JOHNSON TRAINING CAMP QUOTES AND PHOTOS

“I’m transitioning that flair you saw from me on the football field

all into this sport.”

HOUSTON- (Mayıs 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. Şimdi, he will look to take that same formula into his boxing debut when he steps into the ring for an exhibition against versatile fighterBrian MaxwellPazar günü, 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. Ancak, 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.”

İşte savaşçıların Salı söyledikleri ise:

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 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. Ben bir usta değilim. 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. Harika bir gösteri olacak, so make sure you tune-in for this one.”

BADOU JACK

“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. Bu kadar. 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. Kavga sadece hazırım.

“Looking at the past, evet, I need to start faster. Her kavga, 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. Durdu olmamıştı, 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. I can box and I can bang, farketmez. 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 hemen şimdi. I want to handle that before I move up in weight.”

LUIS ARIAS

“Camp has been excellent. Ben mücadele için heyecanlıyım. 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. Ben kazanmak zorunda. He’s not going to have to find me. Ben orada olacağım. 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, Mayweather Promosyonlar CEO'su

“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. Açılış çan itibaren, 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, Heyecanlıyım, 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 (Mayıs 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, Haziran 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. Zaferle, 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, which is promoted by Mayweather Promotions, GTD Promotions and TGB Promotions, go on sale tomorrow, Cuma, Mayıs 21 at 10 a.m. VE, ve şu adresten satın alınabilir: 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. Iyi adam kazansın.

“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, farketmez. 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 mermi, öyle olsun. 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. İlk turda itibaren, 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, Mayweather Promosyonlar CEO'su

“’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.”

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.”

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.

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.

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 KOs) earned a career best-victory in his last outing, beating veteran contender Thomas LaManna by unanimous decision in August 2020.

En son olarak, Akhmedov blasted out Ray Perez in the first round of their September 2020 clash.

“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.”

A former super featherweight champion, Mendez (25-6-3, 12 KOs) has a reputation for providing stiff challenges to the sport’s best and has proven to be a durable contender at 140-pounds, including his most recent outing that saw him drop a split-decision to Richardson Hitchins last December.

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 ve Micky Scala, who will compete in separate non-televised bouts on Sunday, Haziran 6. Here is what the fighters had to say Tuesday from the Mayweather Boxing Club:

BADOU JACK

“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. Günün sonunda, 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. Mutluyum. Kutsandım. 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. Bu bir rüya gerçek oluyor. 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. Eş-ana olay, we have none other than Pascal vs. Kriko. 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.”
