Here is what Thurman had to say Miércoles from the St. Petersburg Boxing Club:
KEITH Thurman
“Al final de la día, it’s just another fight. My job has not changed since I was seven years old. This is the sport that I love. The name of the game to hit and not get hit, but you know I’m looking to inflict some damage as well.
I know Danny is confident coming into this fight. He’s trying to challenge me and hurt me. I have an ‘0’ and I’m not ready to let it go. Si usted cree que me puede vencer, beat me. It’s going down on Marzo 4.
You can expect a world class fight. We’re both great champions with impressive skills. We’re going to be pushing each other and testing each other. I see myself as the smarter fighter. I’ve shown that I can adjust in the middle of a fight. With the experience that I have, I go in there with an objective I’m trying to achieve. If it’s not happening, then I have to use something else.
“Por último, my heart desires victory at this stage and at this level. I’m looking to do what I do best. Which is be a smart fighter, look for the openings and if I can cause some damage, hopefully I can capitalize on that.
I showed against Shawn Porter that when you fully challenge me and make me gut it out, Estoy allí. I’m a champion and this champion doesn’t lie down for anybody. That fight was a tremendous fight and we showed that we understand each other as fighters.
I thought to myself after eight rounds against Porter, ‘this fight is tied.Nothing that happened in the first eight rounds mattered. The fight was going to be decided in four rounds, just like the amateurs. I had to do what Ben Getty always said, ‘smart fighters win and dumb fighters lose.
I just want to keep moving myself up and establishing my legacy. I want to distinguish myself from the other welterweights. The winner of this fight will get the spotlight over everyone else in the division.
I’m doing this for my career, for my legacy and for the fans. Without the fans, there’s no legacy. I’ve been boxing for 21 years of my life and I look forward to having some more great years. I’m proud to be living my dream.
To get two tremendous fights back-to-back is evidence that I’m on the right track and you could say we’re gaining more power in the sport. I’m getting what I want out of the sport, which are big fights like this.
This is something that the fans are excited about and I’m truly looking forward to this fight. I just want to keep living my dreams and working to become the best fighter in the world.
Establishing a unification of a weight class is my ultimate goal in the sport of boxing. That’s what we’re working for.
DAN BIRMINGHAM, Thurman’s Trainer
The preparation has been fantastic. Keith has been on both. His long runs, short runs, sprinting, listening to everything in the gym not to mention great sparring. You are going to see a great performance.
“Esto es un sueño hecho realidad para mí. I never dreamed of this when I was Youngstown, OH before I came to Florida. When I came here there were guys like Jeff Lacy and Winky Wright that came into my gym who I’ve been fortunate enough to work with. Then came Ben Getty and Keith Thurman.
I owe most of this to Ben Getty. I want him to get a lot of the recognition. He really deserves it. I am just trying to continue what he started.
Fans are going to see a great performance. They are going to see a well-conditioned, well-trained Keith Thurman. He is very focused on getting rid of Garcia and moving up in the ranks.

Un profesional desde noviembre 2011, he won the initial 12 fights of his career before boxing to an eight-round draw with Stephon joven de junio 20, 2015. The NABO bantamweight champion, he has gone 6-0-1 since and is coming off a second-round TKO over Szilvester Ajtai último Noviembre. 26. En agosto 2016, he fought to a 10-round split draw against Mexico’s Alejandro Santiago en ShoBox.
Because they are both residents of Ohio, Nieves has long clamored for a showdown with former WBA Champion and fellow 118-lb contender Rau’shee Warren. A victory over Potapov may put him in the right position to have his wish granted later this year.
I feel great about this opportunity and I’m going to take advantage of it,” Said Nieves. “Él es un buen boxeador. He comes forward and throws a lot of punches. He’s got a solid foundation.

Since the disappointing result against Young, Potapov has fought twice, leaving nothing in the hands of the judges by winning both by early round knockout. He’s coming off a fourth-round TKO over Alexander Saltykov last Diciembre. 15.
I have been training in Russia and am excited to be in Detroit (since Feb. 1) training at the Kronk Gym with world-class trainer Javan SugarHill Steward,” Potapov said. “Antonio Nieves is a very talented fighter and I look forward to a great exciting fight of skill and will on Marzo 10.”

Como profesional, he’s stayed relatively active since his debut in February 2013, but the 5-foot-8 southpaw has been virtually untested. Tucker will be looking to score his first significant professional victory against Williams.
“Me siento bien. Excited about the opportunity,” , dijo Tucker. “He’s a tough fighter from Detroit. But I’m better. I’ve seen every kind of style there is. You can expect fireworks that night. Estoy 100 percent ready.
Detroit’s Ed Williams is coming off a unanimous decision victory over then 6-1 Christon Edwards, last July at the MGM in Las Vegas. The 27-year-old suffered his lone career loss in November 2015 via unanimous decision to Marcus Beckford in Beckford’s home state of Louisiana. Como amateur, Williams was a two-time Michigan State Champion and a two-time Detroit Golden Gloves Champion.
I feel like this is a great opportunity to fight at home and on TV,” dijo Williams. “It’s the first fight at the MGM, first women’s bout to headline. There’s a lot of firsts going on that night and it’s a big stage, but I’m not afraid of anything. I don’t know much about Tucker other than he’s from Oho and he’s shorter than me. I’m just going to prepare for everything. One thing about meI’m a gladiator. If he doesn’t show up to go to war, I will get him out of there. El entrenamiento va genial. I’m in Houston for this camp. I’m working on a lot of things and getting sharper and staying busy.
James Gordon Smith vs. Joshua Greer, Jr. – Eight Round Bantamweight Bout

Greer suffered the lone loss of his career in the fifth fight of his career, a majority four-round decision against fellow unbeaten Stephen Fulton en diciembre 2015.
I feel really good about this. I’m ready and can’t wait for it to happen,” said Greer. “I don’t know much about James Smith, but I know we fought the same opponent, Antwan Robertson, and he got dropped by him. And I stopped him within 24 segundos de la primera ronda. El entrenamiento va genial. I have the best sparring you can ask for, guys like Adrian Granados, Eddie Ramírez, Hank Lundy. I will be well prepared for this fight. If it was mañana, I’d be ready.

Here is what Garcia and his father and trainer, Ángel, tenía que decir Miércoles from DSG Boxing Gym:
DANNY GARCIA
“Al final de la día, I prepare myself to be 100 percent ready for anything Thurman does. I’m a true champion because I’m able to adapt to anything he can bring.
Training camp has been crucial. We’re working hard and pushing ourselves to the limit. We’ve done everything we have to do so far. It’s almost fight time.
We’re just working smart and hard. We’re sharpening and working on a great game plan. I have to stick to the game plan and adjust if I have to.
I’ve been in a lot of big fights, so I can’t psych myself out. En Marzo 4 I’m going to show the world again why I’m a real champion.
There’s no better feeling than unifying the title. I did it at 140 and now I have the chance to accomplish my goals at 147. It’s up to me to take advantage of it.
There’s been a lot of trash talk, but come Marzo 4, that’s all over. We each need to do what we do best, and that’s win.
I think I have a lot of advantages. One of them is that Barclays Center is like a second home. I’m the sharper, more patient and more battle-tested fighter. I’ll prove it on Marzo 4.
Thurman’s fight against Porter was a good fighter but I’m a different fighter than Shawn Porter. I bring a whole different skill set.
It feels good to represent my city. This is what Philadelphia fighters are all about. We rise to the occasion. I’ve been doing it my whole career.
There’s a lot of pressure on me to be the best. That’s what keeps me focused. I think about the eyes that are going to be on me and I have to go in there and look my best. These kind of fights really bring out the best in me.
ÁNGEL GARCÍA, Padre de Danny & Entrenador
For me it’s an important fight every time Danny steps in that ring. We train the same way no matter who the opponent is. We have to take everybody very seriously. There’s nothing easy in life. From the beginning of his career to its end.
Thurman is undefeated but just because they call him ‘One Timedoesn’t mean he’s going to do that to Danny. My son has a great chin. We don’t know about Thurman’s chin. He hasn’t fought a guy like Danny. This is a good sight for Danny to take into even bigger successes.
Danny has power just like Keith. We’re not scared of him. This is the hurt game. You know you’re going to get hit. We just don’t know if he can take a punch.
You can bet your money on whoever you want. At the end of the night, I know what Danny is going to bring to the table. At the end of the night, he’s going to be the new unified champion of the world.

DANNY GARCIA & KEITH THURMAN JOIN RECORD BOOKS & ELITE GROUP OF LEGENDS IN MARCH 4 WELTERWEIGHT UNIFICATION

Just The Third Unification Between Undefeated Welterweights In Boxing History

SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING en CBS, presentado por Premier Boxing Champions, Live on CBS From Barclays Center In Brooklyn

NUEVA YORK (Febrero. 15, 2017) – Sugar Ray Leonard vs. Tommy Hearns. Felix Trinidad vs. Oscar De La Hoya. Floyd Mayweather vs. Manny Pacquiao.

That is the elite company welterweight champions Danny Garcia and Keith Thurman will join when they meet in just the 10ºunification in division history on Sábado, Marzo 4 on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING on CBS, presentado por Premier Boxing Champions, del Barclays Center, la casa de BROOKLYN BOXEO ™, live on CBS from 9-11 p.m. Y/6-8 p.m. PT.

García, the WBC titleholder, and Thurman, the WBA champion, will unify the exact same titles that Leonard (CMB) y Hearns (AMB) unified in their 1981 Pelea del Año.

And while Hearns was undefeated and Leonard entered with one loss, García (33-0, 19 KOs) and Thurman (27-0, 22 KOs) will meet in just the third unification between invicto welterweights in boxing history, la primero since Trinidad vs. De La Hoya in 1999, a bout billed as “The Fight of the Millennium.”

García vs. Thurman will be broadcast in Primetime on CBS, the first unification on network television in any division in over two decades (Nota: Terry Norris vs. Paul Vaden at 154-pounds on Dec. 16, 1995 en FOX). It’s also just the second primetime boxing presentation on the CBS Television Network in nearly 40 año.

While Danny Garcia and Keith Thurman are joining a who’s who of legendary 147-pounders, their showdown also presents current implications in boxing’s glamour division. With the retirement of pound-for-pound kingpin Floyd Mayweather, Garcia and Thurman, both just 28 años, meet with a chance to become the new face of the stacked 147-pound division, and perhaps earn a spot on the mythical pound-for-pound list.

Más que 80 percent of the total punches landed by Garcia are power shots, putting his high-octane power punch output nearly 10 percent higher than the welterweight average.

Keith Thurman ranks No. 4 amongst all current boxers in percentage of power punches landed, connecting at 48.2 percent according to Compubox. That’s more than 10 percent better than the welterweight average.

Both fighters are young, hungry and undefeated. Their bout on Marzo 4 is the quintessential career-defining fight. It is a chance for both to add to their growing legacy and potentially, por último, be forever linked with every boxing great in the coveted International Boxing Hall of Fame.

Ivan Baranchyk – Is he the next Arturo Gatti?

 

Baranchak Gatti.png

Miami, OKAY (Febrero 14, 2017) – El Viernes, Febrero 10, boxing fans were treated to a fight of the year candidate between junior welterweights Ivan “The Beast” Baranchyk of Brooklyn, NY and Arizona’s Abel Ramos. The bout took place at the Buffalo Run Casino in the main event of ShoBox: La Nueva Generación. It was a significant fight for both combatants, with Baranchyk looking to move further up the ladder while Ramos hoped to become a player at 140 pounds by taking out his highly regarded foe.

 

When the matchup was announced, Baranchyk and Ramos were expected to put on an entertaining fight. What ultimately transpired however far exceeded expectations.

 

For ten rounds, Baranchyk and Ramos had the capacity crowd on their feet cheering on the incredible action. Both men hit the canvas and were badly hurt at different points of the fight, trading punches at a frenetic pace. They bled, brawled and left everything in the ring in a fight that was among the greatest in ShoBox’s 17 year history.

 

Los puntajes fueron 99-91, 97-92 y 97-93 for Baranchyk, que es 14-0 con 10 nocauts. Ramos, whose stock went up tremendously in defeat, es 17-2-2 (12 Nocáuts).

 

The CompuBox stats were similar to the first showdown between Arturo Gatti and Mickey Ward. Baranchyk and Ramos combined to land 664 golpes totales y 482 power shots. Gatti-Ward I saw a total of 618 connects with 521 being power punches.

 

“I believe this has to be the best fight in ShoBox history,” exclaimed Baranchyk’s promoter Tony Holden, who promotes him along with DiBella Entertainment and Fight Promotions Inc. “Ivan is a natural crowd pleaser. He has the biggest heart in boxing and incredible conditioning. Like we saw many times from the late, great Arturo Gatti, Ivan was hurt, bloodied and took a lot of punches but his will powered him to victory. I believe he could become the next Arturo Gatti but there’s still work to do.

 

Lou DiBella, who promoted the aforementioned Ward, believes Baranchyk is boxing’s newest action star.

 

“We got stats from CompuBox and they were almost identical to Gatti-Ward 1 and Corrales-Castillo 1, two of the greatest fights in boxing history. Baranchyk and Ramos put on a fight for the ages and I think the comparison to Gatti-Ward is a good one. Ivan’s offensive mindedness and willingness to take and give punishment is reminiscent of Arturo Gatti. He’s already shown he can get a crowd behind him and that was proven by how quickly the fans in Miami, OK adopted him as if he were one of their own. I really think he can become the Belarusian Gatti.”

Below are excerpts from the interview:

 

MARK KRIEGEL: “What does this fight represent to you?"

ADRIAN GRANADOS: “Cubs just won. This is my own World Series, ya sabes. It took me this long to finally get a big fight, but I got it. This is going to be my coming out. I know a lot of people don’t know who I am. Those who do know me, they know I come to fight.”

KRIEGEL: “One of the guys who does know you is Adrien Broner. You were in his camp for Marcos Maidana. What stands out to [usted] sobre él?"

GRANADOS: "Es un gran luchador. Quiero decir, it’s no fluke that he is a four-division world champion.”

KRIEGEL: “Did he ever hurt you?"

GRANADOS: "Definitivamente, we are humans. He can crack. He just had that explosive power. He had 16-ounce gloves and it felt like he was hitting me with his bare fist. He just hits hard.”

KRIEGEL: “Did you ever hurt him?"

GRANADOS: "Definitivamente. Sé que lo hice. He may not admit it. Sí, I know I had him bloodied a couple times. I know I had him backing up a couple of times. You just know as a fighter when you crack somebody.”

On the passing of top prospect and friend Ed Brown…

GRANADOS: “I believe it was a Domingo. I was in a barbershop…They were like, ‘I heard about your boy.’ And I’m … trying to keep it together. I just called George, our coach. He told me, ’Yeah man, Ed has died. Ed is dead.’ And right there I broke down and cried and screamed to coach, ‘I’m going to win this fight. I’m going to win this fight for him.’”

CITAS FINALES:

 

IVAN “THE BEAST” BARANCHYK:

"Estoy trabajando con un nuevo entrenador (Eduard Kravtsov) en Wild Card Gym. Tuvimos algunos errores con nuestro antiguo equipo y era hora de seguir adelante. Fue mi decisión seguir adelante.

 

"Tenemos mejores sparring ahora, un nuevo entrenador, nueva estrategia. Wild Card es una experiencia diferente. Tenemos un combate duro, entrenamiento duro. Fue un buen cambio.

 

"Sigo siendo el mismo luchador agresivo; Me adelanto y trato de detenerte. Solo estamos trabajando en algunas cosas nuevas, más combos, mejor defensa.

 

“Ramos es mi oponente más duro, pero estamos listos para todo lo que trae. Estamos listos para luchar por dentro, en el exterior.

 

"El plan de juego es conseguir la victoria. Eso es lo mas importante

 

"Las primeras dos rondas son las más peligrosas. Sabemos que es duro y experimentado. Necesitamos convertirlo en mi pelea, estilo.

 

"Mis dos últimas peleas se fueron a la distancia, pero fue bueno saber que puedo ir 10 rondas. Fue bueno tener esa experiencia.

 

"La gente se conecta conmigo aquí (en Miami, Oklahoma.). No puedo explicarlo, simplemente funciona ".

 

ABEL RAMOS:

"Iván es un luchador diferente. Sabemos con qué nos estamos metiendo allí y vamos a sentir su poder. Sus dos últimas peleas fueron a la distancia, por lo que no debe golpear tan fuerte.. Lo vamos a desgastar.

 

"Iván es agresivo, y puede ser explosivo a veces, pero comete errores. Pelea un poco salvaje.

 

"Creo que puedo empezar a preocuparlo. Vamos a poner a prueba su poder y decidir cómo necesito pelear.. Todavía no ha peleado con nadie a mi nivel..

 

"Tengo que ganar esta pelea. Esta es mi tercera vez en SHOWTIME y tengo que ganar. Tengo que hacer una declaración.

 

"He estado trabajando para acelerar el ritmo. Verás algo de eso mañana noche.

 

“Entrenamos con Sergey Lipenets, ayudándolo a prepararse para su pelea en diciembre. Esa fue una buena experiencia para nosotros.

 

"He aprendido mucho desde mi derrota ante Regis (Prograis - ShoBox, 2015). Estoy entrenando más duro, trabajando en el gimnasio, tomando esto más en serio.

 

"Estoy aquí para demostrar que he vuelto y estoy listo para los mejores. He tenido tres victorias por nocaut desde la derrota. Soy un luchador diferente ".

 

LENIN CASTILLO:

“Sabemos que Williams es un peleador agresivo que se presenta. He visto una cinta. Espero que se me acerque. Pero no es nada que nunca haya visto antes.

 

"Necesito presionar para que los jueces no tengan ninguna duda. Necesito pelear mi pelea.

 

"Creo que he luchado contra los mejores oponentes. Creo que mi experiencia va a marcar la diferencia.

 

“La calidad de los luchadores aquí (en los EE.UU.) es mejor que volver a casa (República Dominicana). Aquí es donde quiero pelear ahora ".

 

JOSEPH "MACK" WILLIAMS:

"Él (Castillo) tiene algunas peleas más, pero sobre todo en la República Dominicana, así que no sabemos qué tan bueno es en realidad.

 

"Él nunca ha peleado con alguien como yo. Va a venir con confianza porque está 15-0 con 10 KOs. Tiene confianza porque es olímpico. Pero nunca se ha enfrentado a nadie como yo..

 

"Puede que sea un olímpico, pero mira con quien peleé en los amateurs. Mira a los hombres a los que vencí. Y esos tipos son en su mayoría pesos crucero ahora. Soy mucho más fuerte en el peso semipesado.

 

"Este es el momento y el lugar adecuados para nosotros. Esta es una gran oportunidad.

 

"No creo que sea el mejor luchador que he enfrentado. Si lo golpeo limpio, no creo que llegue tan lejos. Voy a entrar allí con la mente abierta y explotar su debilidad..

 

"He bajado gradualmente de peso. Soy más rápido en el peso semipesado. Cuando estaba pesado me tomé mi tiempo. Soy más agudo, Más rápido. Solo soy una persona totalmente diferente.

 

"Siempre me comparo con James Toney. Puedo golpear fuerte, Puedo recibir un golpe, y soy hábil. Lo que veas dependerá de mi oponente. Si siento que es débil, Saltaré temprano. Puedo pelear, Yo puedo boxear. Soy explosivo ".

 

JON FERNANDEZ:

"Yo discutió con (Carl) Frampton en Las Vegas para el (León) Pelea de santa cruz. Fue una gran experiencia entrenar con él tres veces por semana.. Me dio más confianza saber que podía manejarlo..

 

"Garza tiene básicamente la misma altura que Frampton, así que será una ventaja.

 

"Sé que él va a venir a mí, y estamos listos para eso. Necesito mantener mi ritmo y que sea una pelea entretenida. Creo que mi poder y velocidad serán la diferencia.. Lanzo muchos golpes.

 

“Esta pelea significa mucho para mí. Ambos somos buenos luchadores y la exposición televisiva significa mucho. Es una buena oportunidad y necesito aprovecharla ".

 

ERNESTO GARZA:

"Le daremos algo que nunca ha visto antes. Vamos a llevar la acción.

 

"Siempre he sido un luchador agresivo. Me gusta traer la presión.

 

"Me he enfrentado a tipos tan altos como él antes, Luché contra un tipo que medía 6 pies 2. Sé que necesito entrar con un tipo como este.

 

"He visto muchas de sus peleas, y no creo que sea un golpeador rápido. El siempre pelea el mismo estilo, y sus oponentes siempre están ahí para tomar. No voy a estar ahí para que él golpee así.

 

"Esta es mi oportunidad. Esta es una gran oportunidad para mí ”.
