Participants were on hand to discuss the exciting doubleheader on Janeiro 14 and celebrating the long awaited return of boxing to The Big Apple.
Aqui está o que os participantes tinham a dizer quarta-feira:
JACK Badou
“I think this will be an exciting fight. I’m going to give it my all and he’s going to give it his all. This is a bigger fight than anything we’ve been a part of. He’s going to turn it up and so will I.
“Now it’s me and DeGale. All the other fights are in the past. We’ve had different results against the same fighters. But none of that matters, é hora de lutar.
“A real champion can take a loss and bounce back. It shows what kind of person you are. I’ve proven I’m mentally tough.
“Boxing is not dead. It’s here to stay. There are some very good fights coming up. Probably even more next year.
“I came from Sweden, a country that has no boxing. Now I’m here headlining in New York for a unification fight. o céu é o limite. I always stay humble and never forget where I came from.
“It’s not going to matter what people think on fight night. DeGale is definitely one of the top guys in the division. He’s a road warrior. He comes over here and fights guys in their backyards. He deserves a lot of credit. That’s why this fight is so big. We both want to be great.
“I like being the underdog. If I’m the underdog in this fight, then that’s perfect for me. There won’t be any excuses when I beat him.
“I just try to stay humble win after win and keep looking forward to bigger and better things. After this fight come talk to me about who is the best in the division.
“I don’t want to compare myself to anyone else but I’ve had a couple of good years. Now we’re working to have two even better years.
“I made a mistake and got caught in my loss. I was able to bounce back and it made me a way better fighter. It was definitely a blessing in disguise. People are still overlooking me because of it. I look at it as a good thing.
“Everything happens for a reason. I’m very blessed to be here in Brooklyn. This is my second home in America. I trained at Gleason’s Gym in 2009 and now I’m headlining at Barclays Center. It’s amazing.”
James Degale
“Está aqui. The big one. The best fighting the best. Number one against number two. Badou Jack is a very good fighter. He doesn’t do anything spectacular, but he’s a compete fighter.
“I have that X-factor. I’ve lost before and I’m not going to lose again. I’ve come too far in my life to lose this opportunity.
“Em Janeiro 14, Brooklyn is in for a treat. You will not want to miss this one. Make sure you get your tickets.
“My people in London can’t wait for me to fight at home. It’s coming. But first I want to take over in America.
“New York is one of my favorite cities. It’s a boxing city. I watched Santa Cruz vs. Frampton and it was a wicked atmosphere. I can’t wait to be in there.
“I’m very confident in my abilities. I believe I’m the best in the division and one of the best in the world. I’ve been waiting for this fight for a long time and I’m ready to get in there.
“I think in the last three fights I’ve shown everything. I haven’t been getting the respect that I deserve. I’ve beaten everyone put in front of me. This is what I love to do.
“I’m a natural super middleweight. I want to be in fights where people think I’m going to lose. I’ll challenge anybody.

“I expect this to be a very exciting fight. I’m going to be ready for anything that Davis will bring into the ring. I’m going to take care of business.
“I’m very privileged to help with this cause and to help push boxing in New York. I’m going to represent my people on Janeiro 14 and I’m very proud of the opportunity.
“If Davis says he has to be killed to be beaten, then he’s going to have to go down.
“I’m undefeated and I will remain undefeated after Janeiro 14. I know Davis is a strong kid, but he isn’t on my level. I am looking to dominate this fight.
“Fighting at Barclays Center is really a dream come true. I know that I will have a lot of support from the Puerto Rican boxing fans and I’m going to train hard to perform for them.
“I’m sorry for Davis to be signed for Mayweather, because when I take away his undefeated record, I’m going to feel like I beat Mayweather.”
GERVONTA DAVIS
“It feels great to fight in Brooklyn for the first time. I’ve never fought in New York and it’s tremendous. I’ll have a lot of hometown fans driving up to here for the fight.
“Pedraza is a tough opponent. We’re going to work hard in camp and be ready to fight on Janeiro 14.
“My hometown has been backing me for all of these years. Em Janeiro 14, I get my shot. É incrível. I know Pedraza is a great fighter. People will say he has more experience. But I had 206 wins in the amateurs and a lot of titles.
“There’s nothing Pedraza can bring to the ring that I haven’t seen before. I’ve been battle-tested inside the ring and outside the ring.
“He’s going to have to kill me to retain his title. I’m coming home a champion. There’s no doubt about it.
“On paper this is definitely my hardest task. We’re both great fighters. I hope he trains hard because I’m training for the fight of my life.
“I’m going to steal the show on Janeiro 14. I’m going to get Pedraza out of there and then work to unify the division against the other champs.”
Floyd Mayweather, Presidente de Promoções Mayweather
“We’re back. What other better city to be in, than New York City? It was always one of my dreams to fight in New York City. I’m glad I’m in a position to put fighters out there to give the fans what they want to see. New York City is the best place for boxing.
“For years and years these fighters have worked so hard and dedicated their lives to get to this point. I’m thankful for everyone who is supporting us and supporting our movement.
“The only thing we’re going to do is continue to build these fighters and help these fighters get to the highest heights. So many people have helped me get to this point, where I can give back to these young fighters.
“Lou DiBella is a guy I love to work with. The boxing business is about working together. Leonard works hard day in and day out to put these fighters in the best position, and I do the same. It’s all about working to get these fighters to the next level.
“We’re here in New York and we want to bring boxing to New York City. This is one of the meccas of boxing. The whole state has embraced me throughout my career.
“I’m very proud of Badou Jack. He’s a guy who carries himself like a gentleman. That’s what a true champion does. He’s very respectful, humble and appreciative.
“Badou Jack is such a hard worker and he’s very appreciative. I remember the position he was in. He’s still very thankful and humble now that he’s in a great position in his life and career.
“I’m just happy that I’m able to put fighters in a good position. They then have to take advantage of the position I put them in.
“We want to continue to do fights in this arena and bring championship boxing to New York City. We want to give you great shows again and again.”
LEONARD Ellerbe, CEO de Promoções Mayweather
“This is a tremendous platform. Coming to New York is something that Floyd has been advocating for. He’s wanted to bring a big event here and come Janeiro 14 that’s what the fans are going to get. We have a great night of fights from top to bottom.
“This is everything for Badou. This is why you lace them up when you’re a kid. This is an opportunity to be the best. He’s the best 168-pounder in the world and on Janeiro 14 he’ll have that platform to do it.
“When it comes to unification, you don’t see too many unified champions. The best fighting the best is what it’s all about. DeGale is an Olympic gold medalist and a world champion. He’s fought some very good fighters. Badou will be making his third title defense and there is no better opponent than DeGale.
“When two guys come together and they want to determine who’s the best, with everything on the line, that’s what it’s all about.
“The fans can expect to see Mayweather Promotions go back to Las Vegas with two world champions. One will be a unified champion and one will be the new super featherweight world champion.
“This is a great step-up for Gervonta. That’s what life is about, stepping up and taking risks. That’s why you get into the sport. He’ll have his full arsenal on display on fight night.”
Lou DiBella, Presidente da DiBella Entertainment
“Fans should go out and buy their tickets once they go on sale. There is going to be a show here on Janeiro 14. We have lawyers and insurance people on it and we will pay what needs to be paid.
“This announcement not only represents a fight announcement, but a call to action to all boxing fans. Boxing needs your help in New York. We need to change or repeal this law that has really shut us down. Even if we can get really expensive insurance for Janeiro 14, the small promoters and small fights and grassroots boxing have come to a standstill.
“Come out to this incredible fight card on Janeiro 14. Jack vs. DeGale is as good as it gets. Jose Pedraza is Puerto Rico’s only champion and he’s defending against Gervonta Davis. That is a great fight. The undercard is also going to be terrific.
“It also represents boxing trying to take its rightful place back. We’re not sitting back in 2017 and letting our industry be brought to a halt. We’re going ahead and announcing Janeiro 14. But we need everyone’s help with respect to making the necessary changes to allow our sport to thrive in this space again.
“I promoted Badou early in his career and he is a terrific fighter. He does everything well. He’s active in the ring and he makes good fights, and so does DeGale. He comes forward and fights. These two guys are going to throw down. This is a fan friendly main event. With huge significance.
“The opening bout features Puerto Rico’s only champion, fighting in front of New York’s huge Puerto Rican community. Gervonta Davis comes right up from Baltimore and it’s a can’t-miss fight.”
BRETT Yormark, CEO do Brooklyn Sports & Diversão
“We want to reinforce our commitment to boxing. Not just from a Barclays Center perspective, but from a state perspective. Boxing is very important to the history here in New York and we want that to continue. We want to take a lead position as the sport continues to grow and thrive in the marketplace.
“We have become one of the premier venues in the country for boxing. We look forward to a very successful 2017. This fight in particular is very important to us. We haven’t had a championship event here since July. Floyd being involved brings a whole different dynamic as well and we’re excited for a tremendous undercard full of Brooklynites.
“Floyd has been here to the Barclays Center several times and we’re thrilled that he’s back. It’s a pleasure to welcomes Badou Jack and James DeGale to Brooklyn and I’m confident that you will like the Brooklyn crowd.
“There has not been a major boxing event at Barclays Center since the Julho 30 Santa Cruz vs. Frampton card and we’re proud to take the lead on bringing boxing back to New York. We’re excited that Janeiro 14 will be the first major boxing card in New York in 2017. We are more committed than ever before to bringing boxing to Barclays Center.
“It’s a very exciting time for the building, for the sport and it should be an electric evening for the sport.”
STEPHEN ESPINOZA, Executive VP & Director Geral, Showtime Sports
“This card is unique, high quality and special. You don’t see cards like this every day. These four fighters have made a combined 14 appearances on SHOWTIME. We’re very proud of these four fighters.
“To create and deliver special events, it takes commitment. When you’re committed to a cause, special things happen. We’ve done special things with Mayweather Promotions and now we have this great card coming to us.
“The four young men on the stage today are some of the most talented and accomplished athletes in the sport. This is the best this sport has to offer. They’re committed to taking on other accomplished athletes. We have four of those fighters here on the televised portion and we have to salute them.
“New York City has a tremendous history in boxing. It’s hosted the biggest fights in the history of the sport. Barclays Center has emerged as the biggest and most aggressive supporter of boxing on the east coast. We’re optimistic that there won’t be any holdup getting to Janeiro 14.
“No network is as committed or as passionate about boxing as SHOWTIME is. The biggest and the best fights are on SHOWTIME. No other network is televising fights like these. Top five versus top five and champion versus champion. There is no better way to kick-off boxing in 2017 than with this great card at Barclays Center.”
ERIC ADAMS, Brooklyn Borough President
“Now is the call for action. We have witnessed what happens when the call for action is not personified and mobilized. Too many people pass legislation and are focused on the paper it’s written on, instead of the people who are impacted by it. It is clear that New York state is the Empire State where we build empires instead of destroying them and we are destroying the empire of boxing in New York.
“If we don’t do something about this piece of legislation, then these fighters will no longer have the aspiration to fight in the state that they love. That cannot happen. New Yorkers don’t follow the agenda, we lead the agenda. We must do that to make sure this is done correctly.
“We are going to mobilize and move in the right direction while protecting the fighters. We don’t want to knock out boxing in the state of New York. That cannot happen.
“This is going to be a great opportunity for these fighters and for Brooklyn and we are thankful to the team at Barclays for putting these fighters on this great stage.”

BROOKLYN (Novembro 16, 2016) – WBC Super campeão dos médios do Mundo Badou Jack (20-1-2, 12 KOs) and IBF Super Middleweight World Champion James Degale (23-1, 14 KOs)will look to stake their claim as the best 168-pound fighter in the world when they meet in a title unification clash on Sábado, Janeiro 14 from Barclays Center in Brooklyn and live on SHOWTIME as boxing returns to New York for the first time in five months.
The SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast will also feature undefeated junior lightweight world champion Jose “Sniper” Pedraza (22-0, 12 KOs) defending his title against up-and-coming Mayweather Promotions’ undefeated contender Gervonta “Único” Davis (16-0, 15 KOs).
“I’m expecting a very tough fight from James DeGale,” disse Jack. “But I’m very confident that I’m going to win the fight and become the unified champion. This is an incredible stage to be at Barclays Center and on SHOWTIME and I’m going to take full advantage of it. I’m ready to make my mark as the best in the division.”
“I am so happy that this fight has finally been made,” said DeGale. “This is the best fighting the best. Isto é o que o boxe é tudo. Badou Jack is a very good fighter and he’s underrated. I am going to have to be 100 percent on my game to beat him, but I am confident I will deliver on January 14. I have already fulfilled my dream of becoming a world champion and now it is time to unify.”
“Davis is a great young fighter with an impressive record,” Disse Pedraza. “He is a complete fighter and I am very happy to fight a challenger of his caliber. Contudo, I do feel that Davis has been protected so I plan to really show off in this fight and perform at my best. Defeating Davis will be a great start to 2017, a year I would love to unify my division. I am thrilled to be back on SHOWTIME and look forward to putting on a great show for all those in attendance at Barclays Center.”
“I’m excited for the opportunity to fight a respected undefeated world champion like Jose Pedraza,” disse Davis. “I’m also ready to show the boxing world what I’m capable of doing. Boxing is searching for its next star and I believe that I’m the one. Em Janeiro 14, I plan to show what over 200 amateur wins and 12 years of training with coach Calvin Ford looks like. Baltimore, we’re here. Brooklyn, I’m ready to shine for you. Jose Pedraza, get ready. I’m coming to kick your a**.”
“Mayweather Promotions is pleased to have the opportunity to bring this huge event to Brooklyn and Barclays Center,” said Floyd Mayweather, Presidente de Promoções Mayweather. “Badou Jack versus James DeGale is one of the best match-ups in the sport. It’s the best fighting the best. I believe that Badou Jack has what it takes to be a unified world champion. I’m also excited to see Gervonta Davis fight for his first world title. He has the skills to be a fighter who carries the sport. He has a tough, undefeated world champion in front of him and I am looking forward to seeing him perform on Janeiro 14. These are two evenly-matched fights that will bring a lot of explosive action to the ring on fight night, you don’t want to miss it.”

Both Jack and DeGale retained their titles on SHOWTIME in April. Jack kept his belt via a controversial split draw against Lucian Bute, a match in which many thought Jack had prevailed, while DeGale defeated mandatory challenger Rogelio Medina. Both fighters were sharp; each landed over 60 percent of his respective power punches to set up this showdown for the top spot in the super middleweight division.
“We’re looking forward to bringing our first boxing event to Barclays Center in Brooklyn on Janeiro 14, when Badou Jack will face James DeGale in a world title unification bout live on SHOWTIME,” disse Leonard Ellerbe, CEO de Promoções Mayweather. “Badou has a tremendous work ethic and ability to stay focused and this has helped him get to where he is now in his career. He’s prepared to keep putting the hard work in to stay on top. Every time he was counted out, it just made him work harder. He’s proof that if you stay focused and dedicated to your craft, you can reach your dreams. I’m also eager to see Mayweather Promotions’ own Gervonta Davis in his first world title fight. We believe there is a bright future ahead for that young man and this could be the first step on his way to a truly special career.”
“Boxing will return to New York in 2017 with a tremendous card at Barclays Center on Janeiro 14 featuring two high caliber championship contests,” disse Lou DiBella, Presidente da DiBella Entertainment. “With Badou Jack and James DeGale facing off, you have champion versus champion, the best fighting the best in what promises to be an action-packed battle in a super middleweight unification. Puerto Rico’s only world champion, undefeated Jose Pedraza, will defend his junior lightweight title against a hungry, heavy-handed challenger in Gervonta Davis.”
“Jack vs. DeGale is a terrific start to 2017,” disse Brett Yormark, CEO do Brooklyn Sports & Diversão. “I want to thank Floyd Mayweather for making this fight happen and to Lou DiBella for his continued support of BROOKLYN BOXING. In our fifth year at Barclays Center, we are committed to boxing more than ever before.”
“Em 2016, SHOWTIME delivered more high-quality, competitive fights than any other network and 2017 não será diferente. We’re thrilled to kick off the year with a true ’50/50′ unification fight between two world champions in the prime of their career,” disse Stephen Espinoza, Vice-Presidente Executivo e Gerente Geral, Showtime Sports. “Badou Jack vs. James DeGale is boxing at its best – a matchup between the No. 1 – e n. 2-ranked boxers in the division – the right fight happening at the right time. And the Jose Pedraza-Gervonta Davis co-feature, which features two of boxing’s rising stars, could have been a main event on its own. There is no better way to begin the year, as well as our tremendous run of four separate SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING presentations over a seven-week span.”
Tomada, who fights out of Las Vegas by way of Stockholm, Suécia, captured the WBC 168-pound crown with a 12-round majority decision over previously unbeaten defending champion Anthony Dirrelllast Abril 24. A former amateur standout who represented Gambia in the 2008 Jogos Olímpicos, Jack retained his belt against former world title challenger George Groves last Sete. 12 on the undercard of Floyd Mayweather’s final fight. Jack was an underdog against both Dirrell and Groves before retaining his title. A 6-foot-1, 33-year-old won four in a row leading up to his controversial draw against Bute in April.
DeGale won the vacant IBF belt in his U.S. debut last May by dropping Andre Dirrell twice on his way to a unanimous decision. O 2008 Olympic Gold Medalist from London then successfully defended it last November in a thrilling shootout with the hometown favorite and former titlist Bute. A 30-year-old, who’s only blemish came in a majority decision in his 11th bout against the then-unbeaten Groves, will make his fourth consecutive start outside his native England as he looks to become a global power and a unified champion at 168 libras.
The switch-hitting Puerto Rican Olympian Pedraza backed up his “The Sniper” moniker against Andrey Klimov, picking apart the Russian with superior speed and accuracy on his way to a world title win last June. Pedraza earned a shot at the title in his previous bout with a career-best victory over former world title challenger Michael Farenas. The 27-year-old then went on to defend his title successfully against Edner Cherry last October and most recently against Stephen Smith in April. This fight marks the fourth consecutive time that Pedraza has fought on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING.
A highly regarded prospect that won the 2012 Campeonato nacional Luvas, the 22-year-old Davis recorded five victories inside of the distance in 2015. The Baltimore native, who Floyd Mayweather has called “the next big star in boxing,” kept his momentum going into 2016 as he recorded a sixth-round stoppage of Guillermo Avila in April and a first round knockout of Mario Macias in June. Davis enters his first world title showdown with seven straight victories by stoppage.

Jermall Charlo vs. Julian Williams Media Conference Call Transcript

Deixe um comentário
Richard Schaefer
Muito obrigado. And thank you to all the media to be on today’s call. Estou realmente animado. My first boxing conference call after almost three years out of the sport. Assim, I’m really excited to be at it again.
And what better way to do it than with a double header like this? It’s rare enough to have a match up like Jesus Cuellar versus Abner Mares, which has fight of the year written all over it.
But to have Jermall Charlo versus Julian Williams which is another fight of the year candidate – I can tell you that right now. To have two fight of the year candidates, it’s like today’s day and age almost unheard of. E assim, it really is a very special treat.
I want to thank first and foremost the fighters for agreeing to these great up match-ups. I want to thank SHOWTIME for the commitment to the sport, to showcase fights like that. Stephen Espinoza goes out there and wants to put together competitive match-ups. And I think he is doing an absolutely terrific job.
But before we begin, I just want to make a brief comment. The sport of boxing lost a great friend yesterday, Todd Harlib, who could be seen in countless fighter’s quarters including Jermall Charlo, who is on the phone with us today.
Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends and the whole boxing community at this time. Assim, I’m very sorry about having to report this.
This fight here which we’re discussing today is without any question one of the best fights which can be made in the sport, irrespective of weight class. It is a fight which was really demanded by fight fans and by media.
A lot of people wondered if it was ever going to happen? And here it is. Here it is, one of the most talked about fights, one of the most asked for fights to be seen live on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING on December 10th as part of this terrific double header with Cuellar and Mares.
The fight is in association with Premier Boxing Champions live from the Galen Center at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles which is a terrific new state-of-the-art arena where the basketball and volleyball teams of the university play as well. It has hosted a fight there as well before with the heavyweight title fight with Bermane Stiverne and Chris Arreola.
Assim, if you live in and around the Los Angeles area or somewhere in Southern California, please, make sure you come out and be part of this terrific doubleheader. Tickets are available and are starting at as little as $35.00. Fantastic seats for $35.00
Para comprar bilhetes, please, ir a www.galentix.com.
It is a pleasure now to introduce to you our co-promoter. This fight is a co-promotion between Ringstar Sports and TGB Promotions. Tom Brown is very familiar with the arena there at the Galen Center. He was the one who put together the fight with Stiverne and Arreola back in the days. And so it’s a pleasure now to turn it over to Tom Brown to make a few comments.
Tom Brown
Bem, muito obrigado, Richard. I just want to say that TGB Promotions is thrilled to be partnered once again with Stephen Espinoza and the great team at SHOWTIME along with Richard Schaefer and Ringstar Sports.
I’m also happy to back on the beautiful campus of the University of Southern California at the Galen Center.
The idea of championship fight between Charlo and Julian Williams is – as Richard just mentioned – is a can’t miss match-up between two of the best junior middleweights in the world.
Assim, este, along with the main event – the WBA Featherweight Championship fight between Cuellar and Mares makes it a can’t miss night. And like Richard said, two possible fight of the year candidate fights.
Richard and I are working out putting together an action packed under card which will be announced very soon. Assim, we’re looking forward to a great night on December 10th at a great venue with even greater fights. Muito obrigado.
R. Schaefer
Muito obrigado, Tom. Now the next man I’m going to introduce is a good friend of mine. We have known each other for a long time. And we put together some of the biggest fights in the past. Back in 2013 when we were on fire.
Everybody recognized SHOWTIME as the leader in the sport of boxing. And that is because of Stephen Espinoza. Stephen is first and foremost a fan. And he likes to sit there and see great match ups. And that’s exactly what you’re getting here.
Assim, we as fight fans. We as members from the media being promoters or whatever, we can really benefit from Stephen’s passion of putting together these amazing fights.
Assim, it’s a pleasure for me to introduce to you now – I know his title is Executive Vice President in charge of Sports but I’m calling him the President of SHOWTIME Sports. I always – and I always did that. Remember?
Stephen Espinoza
Sim, you’re right. Since the first day I had this job. Obrigado, Richard. We’re thrilled to be working with Richard and Ringstar and Tom Brown and TGB once again. And a special welcome Richard, who we are happy to see back in the sport. Not just because he’s my friend but because he is one of the standup guys in the sport. Very professional and a straight shooter. It’s something that this sport can use more of.
Assim, the combination of Tom and Richard is two straight arrows – as straight as they come. And I’m thrilled to be working with both of them.
This year SHOWTIME really has continued to deliver the biggest and best fights. And I think there’s really no question that we’ve had the strongest lineup of the best and most significant match ups of any network in boxing.
2016 so far has included two fight of the year contenders, a KO of the year contender. Fight after fight of top ten opponent versus top ten.
And as we wrap 2016 and go into 2017, we are definitely looking to keep that momentum going. We recently announced seven great match ups – 14 topo 10 fighters taking on each other – in six world title fights.
And we could go on and on about the numbers. Three fights which are number one versus number two in the division. But among the pleasures of doing that is getting to make fights like this one.
Ever since Floyd retired, going on a little more than a year ago, there’s one question that personally I get and all of us here at SHOWTIME get consistently.
And that’s, você sabe, who’s the next star? Who’s the next super star? Who’s going to be carrying the sport going forward. And the good thing about this sport of boxing is that that gets determined in the ring. I can’t tell you.
Even if I were to pick two or there that I thought would develop that way, look – they’ve got to perform in the ring. But it’s fights like this one. Like, Jermall Charlo versus Julian Williams, that determine who are the next stars.
We’ve got two young fighters in the peaks of their career. One world champion who’s established himself as really one of the future stars of the sport. And taking on one of the toughest contenders in any division in Williams.
We’re very proud of both of these fighters. They both been home grown here on SHOWTIME. Jermall has fought with us five times before. Julian has been on SHOWTIME seven times. Assim, we’re proud that both of the role that SHOWTIME has played in both their careers.
Mas o mais importante, we’re proud that these guys stepped up to take this kind of fight. Jermall Charlo was seen as one of the most exciting, jovem, champions in the sport. He’s defended that title successfully, built a fan base in his hometown of Houston, and really looks to really take over the division and elevate to the star echelon of the sport.
Julian Williams has been a guy that people have quietly identified as one of the rising stars for quite some time. I know he’s been patiently waiting – and sometimes not so patiently waiting – for his shot. And so I know he’ll be ready.
I think it’s somewhat fitting that this fight is taking on December 10th, a week before the very legendary Philadelphia world champion Bernard Hopkins retires. Philly fighters are a long tradition. And it takes a lot of work and a special kind of individual to be called a Philly fighter. Just fighting in Philly doesn’t make you a Philly fighter. And I know Julian is poised to carry that title of Philly fighter very proudly and actively for many years to come.
Assim, of all the fights that we’ve announced. And there’s a lot of quality fights. Esta luta – the Charlo-Williams fight – is one of the ones that I’m most excited about. Two young guys at the peaks of their career really battling to determine who could be controlling this division for a long time to come.
This will help determine who are the future stars of our sport. Richard?
R. Schaefer
Muito obrigado, Stephen, very well said. And for me, we all know they are terrific fighters. They’re both are undefeated. I’ve known them – both of them – for a long time. I’ve been involved with many of their fights.
They are terrific young men outside of the ring as well. And just as good as it gets inside of the ring. Assim, they’re really – both of them – they carry the total package. And you’re right, Stephen, he has patience and sometimes not so patiently been waiting.
It is a pleasure for me now to introduce to you Julian Williams, who is trained by Stephen Edwards. He’s the number one ranked contender by the IBF in the Junior Middleweight division. And he secured his top ranking after stopping Marcello Matano in the 7th round in March.
He’s undefeated with a record of 22-0-1, 14 nocautes, Julian Williams.
Julian Williams
Ei, how’s everybody doing? First I want to send my thoughts prayers out to Todd Harlib and his whole family and loved ones. He was a great guy. He was a great cut man and even better guy. And I consider him as a friend. I think it’s a sad time right now, assim, I just want to do that first of all.
Training’s been going really well. We’ve got a really good team and lots of good sparring. We have a really good camp so far. I think this is a really, really good fight. I think it was a fight that hardcore boxing fans needed to see.
It’s a fight that had to happen. I commend Charlo for stepping up and being a true champion. And I want to show the world what I already know. I’m extremely motivated. And I know Jermall is motivated too.
Assim, I think you guys are going to see a real shoot-out. He’s got all the tools and skills. And I’ve got all the tools and skills. And you’re going to see who comes out on top on this night.
E eu sou 100% sure it’ll be me.
R. Schaefer
. Now Jermall Charlo and his brothers, bem, I’ve known them since their first fight. And what a journey it has been.
Today he is the undefeated IBF Junior Middleweight World Champion. He’s training with Ronnie Shields. One of the most legendary trainers out of Houston, Texas.
He won his title by stopping Cornelius Bundrage in the third-round last September. And has defended his belt already twice including a unanimous decision victory over former – very game world champion – Austin Trout in May.
And it’s a pleasure now for me to introduce to you again, somebody I’ve introduced before many times. The IBF Junior Middleweight World Champion, Jermall Charlo.
Jermall Charlo
Obrigado, Richard. Like Julian said, Todd was my man. And I want to give his family and everyone that’s close to Todd my prayers and my condolences.
I hear Julian talk about he’s 100% pronto. And he’s 100% sure he’s going to win this fight. But I’ve heard that before. I’m ready for the stakes. I’m ready for this level. Sorry the fight took so long. It wasn’t necessarily up to me. But I think everything happens for a reason. And it’s perfect timing and I can’t wait to get in there and show the world what I’m actually made of against a guy that’s so highly confident about the things that I do.
R. Schaefer
Ok. I agree with you. Things do happen for a reason. I’m very happy that I’m the one who has the honor to promote this fight and this entire card. I know it’s going to be toe-to-toe battles with the two of you.
And I know with Cueller and Mares as well. They say styles make fights. I think those styles of those four fighters are perfectly done. And I just can’t wait for December 10th at the Galen Center and live on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING.
We are going to open it now to the media for questions for any of the participants on the call.
Q
Jermall, I know that you had to have a procedure that you did voluntarily on your eye. Can you give me any details about that? What exactly was the issue? Was it just a matter of, como, you’re as blind as a bat? Or was there something else that was going on there?
J. Charlo
It wasn’t necessarily voluntarily. I pretty much had some vision problems up to my last fight in Las Vegas.
I fought the fight. I adjusted myself to be able to fight unclear. So now I got the procedure done. Sim, the fight was supposed to happen in October. And I wanted it then. But it was just for me to be able to clear the medical exam. Less stress now to go ahead and go 20/20 and I’m ready now.
Like I said everything happens for a reason. And crystal clear vision is one of the things that helps me make the fight easier.
Q
And which eye was it, a propósito, Jermall?
J. Charlo
Both eyes.
Q
Both of them? Ok, and now you feel like a new person?
J. Charlo
Eu sou 110%, crystal clear, Eu sou bom. Estou pronto.
Q
How much better will that make you? That you can now see clearly. I mean your fighting skills are one thing. But now you can see the target, obviamente, much better it sounds like. I mean do you think that will make you a much better, precise fighter?
J. Charlo
It gives me a lot more confidence. Claro, it’s something important and I probably had to get it. I haven’t fought with crystal clear vision my whole life.
So now I’m even more motivated motivated. I’m eager to get in there to see what the new person is like.
Q
Did you think about having this earlier in your career?
J. Charlo
Sim, I always wanted it. I always wanted it. But I’m a superstitious guy. Assim, I like to keep things, the way I always wanted. It’s just something I feel like it’s going to take me to the next level.
Q
Some people suggested maybe he would vacate the title and go up to middleweight to not fight you. When all that was happening and you were sitting there as a mandatory for him – what was your personal feeling about what was going on?
J. Williams
I didn’t really know about the medical situation until about mid-September.
I actually thought that he would fight. And not think about the notion that he would vacate. The fact that he kept complaining about weight the previous fights. If the fight was being delayed, people are going to start saying this is how boxing is.
But I didn’t think that he was – I thought that he was putting the fight off for whatever reason. But like I said, at the time I didn’t know what the reason was.
All that is under the bridge. It doesn’t even matter anymore. The fight is December 10th. You know what I mean. He said he’s going to bring his A game. He’s got 20/20 vision. I had 20/20 vision my whole life. Now we’re even.
Assim, there will be no excuses.
Q
When you found out that it was finally done and it was good to go. And SHOWTIME was going to announce it and the fight was on. What was your feeling? Was it relief? Was it excitement?
J. Williams
I just felt like I wanted to get to work. The whole process has made me practice my patience.
I wasn’t overly excited because I knew I would fight for the world title my next fight with someone. I was more so like let’s look at the work. I want to start training camp immediately and get myself ready to win.
Q
Was there any frustration that you guys were not in the main event? And that you’re in a co-feature. Or did you kind of understand because Abner Mares is Southern California. And that’s the reason why you guys are put in the co-feature.
J. Charlo
Richard Schaefer is a good promoter. He has a lot of experience in the game. I’m not worried about being the opening or the main event or any of that.
Claro, I’m tired of being in second place. I feel like Kevin Durant. But it’s not in the sense of, como, nothing I can do about it.
Q
And then Julian, same question for you. Is there any surprise that you guys were put in the co-feature and not the main event?
J. Williams
Para ser honesto com você, I didn’t really even think about it. I just want to get in the ring and put some gloves on so we can get this thing going.
I think everything happens for a reason. Abner Mares is a really good fighter. He’s like a three division champion. He earned his stripes.
Assim, obviamente, we’ve got more work to do before we can headline the card. Assim, I didn’t think about it and on top on of that I never thought about.
R. Schaefer
The fact is you’re absolutely right. Each one of those events could be a main event. And in any other network would be a main event. Some other networks would probably even make it a pay-per-view.
Assim, that’s how good this card is. It could have very easily brrn Charlo-Williams is the main event if it would have been in Philly. It would have been. If it would have been in Houston, it would have been.
It’s in LA in Southern California. Assim, that’s why we have Cuellar and Mares. This is about creating excitement. It’s about the fans and so on. All four of those guys are just terrific champions. That’s what they are. Terrific people. It doesn’t really impact one way or the other.
S. Espinoza
And I’ll add from the network perspective, one of the things that we were grateful for in working with fighters like these and promotors like Tom and Richard is, what we want to put together as far as blockbuster events, we don’t have those ego problems.
Richard is absolutely right. Not every network programs this way. But what we’re trying to do – we as a group of fighters, promotores, gerentes, is show off the best this sport has to offer.
Assim, we’re really over delivering on each card. This clearly could’ve been a main event in Houston or Philly or anywhere else. But the idea was, this was going to be a slate of A++ level fights top to bottom.
And that requires the commitment of everybody. And people realizing it’s about not having ego. And just realizing that rising tide lifts all boats.
Q
Jermall, where do you think Julian Williams rates as an opponent?
J. Charlo
We’re both on the way up to the top level. He’s definitely one of my best opponents up to this date. He’s hungry as me. I’m not necessarily worried about any of the things he said about being as hungry as he is to be fighting me. I was that guy too. Being ready to fight K9 and waiting and waiting.
He’s my toughest opponent. And I’m ready for it.
Q
Tell us about taking this fight. And why it’s important to you.
J. Charlo
Every fight is a hard fight. Every fight I have to come out and give my best and be on my A-game. So it’s a good fight to me technically. This is the Roy Jones and Bernard Hopkins back in middleweight type of fight. We’re going to get down and get ready. I’m ready for it.
This part of our legacy is everything that I’ve wanted, growing up as a young fighter, young champion. Seeing these great fights being broadcast on SHOWTIME. And it’s, como, now is my turn. And I have to deliver everything that I’ve always wanted. And that is something I’ve been waiting for.
And it just so happens it has to be Julian Williams. And like I said we both came up the hard route. It wasn’t, como, as easy as I give my hand off to my challenger being one of the best in the world. And that’s kind of what I want to be classified as.
Q
Juliano, também, you’ve been very vocal about this fight. Tell us why you’re so confident you’re going to be able to win this fight.
J. Williams
I’m confident because of what I can do.
I’m confident because I want to be the junior middleweight champion of the world. I think Jermall’s a good fighter. But he doesn’t recognize the scene before. He’s engaged, forte, and fast. I just want to make sure we have no excuses about weight and that kind of talk.
J. Charlo
No weight problem. There’s no weight problem. Get that out of your mind. There’s no weight problem. I’ll tell you everybody knows.
Q
You had talked about Todd Harlib earlier. Can you elaborate on what he meant to you? And the confidence he brought to you as a cutman?
J. Charlo
Todd taught me a lot. He meant a lot to me also. Ronnie Shields and Todd elaborated about how long they’d been around the boxing game and seen the same things they’re seeing now.
Todd, meant a lot. Just spoke to him, como, a couple of days ago because he sent me a few guys to work with. I know he had went over to Russia and caught a little bug. But I didn’t think it would be nothing. I prayed for him. And hoped he got better.
It’s like I said, it just happened to be something that, I can’t control. Assim, I just have to keep fighting. And hope that my next cut man is just as good as Todd. I’ve even been across the ring and looked at Todd working on another guy. And he came talked to me and let me know that it was just all business. And Jermall, just stay focused. Don’t worry about anybody.
I’m just putting the fight in God’s hands. And hoping that I never have to need the urgency to need Todd again.
Q
I spoke to Ronnie, he said that you told him that this fight is going to be a little more special because you’re going to possibly dedicate this fight to him. Is that going to take any form representing his name on your robe or your trunks or anything like that?
J. Charlo
Sim, I’m dedicating this fight to Todd. Actually once we map everything out. But I want to keep talking about it.
I dedicate this fight to Todd. He’s a real close friend of mine. And it’s just unfortunate for me to have to get in the locker room and not have Todd helping me out and everything like that. So of course, I feel some sadness about him not being here. But I know he’s in good hands. So that’s the main thing.
Q
Is this fight right here the first one that really will test you and perhaps take you to the next level and start to light that fuse for you?
J. Williams
Sim, definitivamente. Definitivamente. Whenever you’ve got a 50/50 luta, two guys 26-years-old both in the prime of their careers. It’s going to be a test for both fighters.
It’s rare we see two fighters get in the ring in this type of fight. So I think it’s definitely the first step in building my legacy.
Q
Richard, what does this fight represent in the scheme of this division which is a stacked division and these two fighters in particular?
R. Schaefer
I think you have two of the best fighters in their division fighting in this particular fight. And so this is an extremely significant fight for the division. And these are two – somebody said before – these are two young undefeated and confident fighters who dare to be great.
At this point in their career fighting each other they dare to be great. And that is. These kinds of fights will separate one from the other. And I think the sky is the limit here for within that division and potentially other divisions.
But that’s how you build a champion into a star and then a super star. These kinds of fights, você sabe, these kinds of meaningful fights. And in order for that to happen, you need to have two fighters who are willing to challenge themselves.
And as I said, dare to be great.
Q
Jermall, what weaknesses do you see in Julian Williams that you plan to exploit on fight night?
J. Charlo
Nothing, he’s a strong guy. Whatever you all want to say about him. He’s good, old-school fighter. I’m tired of hearing questions about what he’s done or what he does.
I’m a champion for a reason. I’m staying champion. I don’t plan on moving. I don’t plan on none of that stuff that you all talked about. Eu sou bom.
Q
What do you consider your biggest advantage going into this fight?
J. Charlo
That I’m not supposed to go and be in some superstar. Veja. It’s a business. I’m betting and fighting for everything that boxing has to offer.
And my advantage is being focused and humble and strong-minded like I’ve always been.
Q
Para ambos os lutadores, how important is building a new chapter in your career? And maybe a new idol in boxing.
J. Williams
Ó, it’s an extremely big fight. I think whoever wins this fight is going to be considered the best junior middleweight in the world. I think whoever wins the fight will have the most significant win in the junior middleweight division.
I think since Canelo was basically says he’s not fighting in this division. Whoever wins the fight is going to be king of the division.
Assim, I think it’s extremely, extremely important.
J. Charlo
Very big fight, very important fight for me, clinch the division. Vai ser uma luta boa, um. I’m ready to just give everything I have. It’s going to be a good fight for me. And it’s going to be a good fight for Julian. We both hit it big and we both need to give the fans what they want to see. Assim, it’s that time.
Q
Richard, how important for you was what this first event with Ringstar Sports would be? And for Stephen, how important was having these great fights for Showtime this year?
S. Espinoza
Bem, from the SHOWTIME perspective, our goal is to provide spectacular fights every month or more often if we can. Sometimes dues to scheduling or injuries or things, there are some gaps in our schedule.
But once we came back, we wanted to end the year strong. And really, send a message about our commitment to the sport. Assim, with the help of the promotors, the managers, and most importantly the fighters, we’re able to put together a slate that is stronger than anything we’ve seen again in recent boxing programming schedule. It really is all without the use of pay-per-view. And it’s all top guy versus top guy.
It’s something that is very special to us. We’re very proud of. And we’re looking to continue it throughout all of 2017.
R. Schaefer
Bem, and for me, I think my reputation speaks for itself. I like to put together big events, significant fights, and that’s what I’ve always done.
And this right here is no exception to come back and together promote a card which consists without any question of two potential Fight of the Year candidates. Two barn burners in one night is a dream come true.
And to do that for my hometown. To do it from the University of Southern California, USC, Galen Center the newest indoor venue in Los Angeles. And the university where two of my sons go to school. It’s a very special night for me.
And it’s a very special night as well because Charlo and Williams and Mares and Cuellar – I have known these young men for a long time. So really it’s nice – it’s like a coming home or coming back.
Since this was the last question, Entendo, I’d like to thank you all. But I want to make one comment. Sim, they both have 20/20 vision. But let there be no question about it. The name of this card is 50/50. And you know why it’s 50/50.
Because these two fights are 50/50 lutas. E assim, may the better man win that night. Como um fã, Estou animado. I can’t wait for December 10th. Por Favor, please, make it out to Galen Center. Para $35.00 you can watch two of the best fights of the year in one night at the Galen Center. Or if you can’t make it there. Then make sure you turn in on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING at 10:00 pm ET/7:00 pm PT. I’m looking forward to see you all during fight week. And thank you very much.

CORONA, Califa. (Novembro. 4, 2016) - Joio “The Real Deal Shelestyuk manteve uma invencibilidade e continuou sua ascensão na divisão do welterweight com um close, decisão unânime 10-redonda sobre o seu adversário mais difícil até agora, Jimmy “The Truth” Herrera em Sexta-feira evento principal de um ShoBox: A Nova Geração tripleheader viver ALTURA DE COMEÇAR a partir do exterior produtos Omega Centro de eventos em Corona, Califa.

 

Shelestyuk (15-0, 9 KOs), o 2012 Jogos Olímpicos medalha de bronze para a Ucrânia, foi vitorioso pelas dezenas de 96-93 duas vezes e 95-94. Apesar de uma gutsy, desempenho corajoso, Herrera (15-4-1, 8 KOs), de Chicago, Ill., tinha um vencedor final sequência de três luta. Não houve knockdowns.

 

Em um embaralhado, colisão sangrenta de cruiserweights invicto no co-metragem, canhoto Constantin Bejenaru (12-0, 4 KOs, 0-1-1 no World Series of Boxing), de Catskill, N.I.. por meio da Moldávia, sobreviveu a um knockdown e várias cabeçadas não intencional para registrar uma decisão unânime 10-redonda sobre Steve Bujaj (16-1-1, 11 KOs), de Nova Iorque.

 

Favorito dos fãs locais Manuel "La Tormenta" Mendez (13-1-2, 9 KOs), de Indio, Calif., registrou uma impressionante um soco, 2:32 nocaute no primeiro round sobre previamente invicto Vitor Jones Freitas (12-1, 1 ND, 6 KOs), de Salvador, Bahia, Brasil, em um ataque de oito rodada programada que abriu a cerimônia.

 

southpaw Shelestyuk, que entrou no ringue classificado n º. 9 na WBO e Não. 13 no WBA, virou uma tentativa determinada por Herrera para ganhar, apesar de se encaixado um ponto de retenção excessiva na quinta rodada.

 

“Foi uma luta dura,'' Shelestyuk. “Ele é um lutador muito duro, ele é lento, mas ele trabalhou bem. Na primeira rodada, Eu fiz bem, mas minhas pernas ficaram em mim. Acho que foi porque eu não dormir bem.

 

“Depois de cinco rodadas, comecei a encontrar o meu ritmo. Eu comecei a lutar boxe dele. Cometi alguns erros lá como puxar costas retas. Esta luta vai me fazer melhor. Como eu disse, ele era duro, mas nada de especial. Quando minhas pernas passou, Comecei a trabalhar dentro. Eu vencê-lo bem na última rodada e se houvesse 30 segundos mais, Eu poderia tê-lo impedido.

 

“Eu estou ansioso para ser mais ativo em 2017. Vou levar duas ou três semanas de folga e volto no ginásio.’’

 

“A Verdade” dói e Herrera teve mais do que seu quinhão de momentos em uma luta apertada. Herrera, um pro desde dezembro 2009, figurou a ser um teste legítimo para Shelestyuk e ele estava. Mas Taras foi mais ativo (aterrissagem 169 de 689 socos, em comparação com Herrera de 130 de 460). cada conectado 28 por cento do tempo.

 

Herrera, que tinha derrotado perspectivas invicto em quatro dos últimos nove lutas, não estava feliz com o veredicto. “Foi uma boa luta. Não há muito que eu posso dizer. Eu pensei que era mais perto do que a pontuação indicada. Eu me diverti lá e eu dar-lhe crédito. Ele foi tudo o que eu esperava. Ele é um lutador inteligente.’’

 

“Eu viveria para ser um boneco de testes para todos estes jovens promessas. Eu pensei que poderia ter sido um empate, mas as pessoas que o viram na TV pode ter a sua opinião.’’

 

Fazendo sua segunda ShoBox começo, Bejenaru triunfou pelos escores de 97-91 em scorecards dos três juízes. O esquerdino passou de um ambiente limpo, contador de gancho de esquerda no queixo, no quinto e tem a pior das cabeçadas não intencionais, mas parecia outhustle e outfight um Bujaj relutantes maior parte do caminho.

 

Um curto cruiserweight com um estranho, estilo herky-jerky Bejenaru pressionado a questão em toda e foi muito mais ativo, jogando mais de 100 socos mais do que Bujaj (454-336) e média 45 socos jogado por rodada em relação ao 38 para Bujaj.

 

“Ele é um lutador sujo,‘’ Disse Bejenaru após um jogo no qual ele sofreu um corte ruim sobre seu olho esquerdo e um grande vergão em sua sobrecarga. “Você olha para todas as suas lutas, tudo que ele faz é levar com a cabeça. I foi afetado por suas cabeçadas, mas não havia nenhuma maneira que eu ia parar. Ele reclama um monte, mas tudo que ele fez foi falta. Parecia-me que ele me mordeu na orelha esquerda após ... que é como ele luta.

 

“O esporte é o boxe, não nadar e ele flails seus golpes como um nadador, um lutador de rua, não um lutador profissional. Ele me pegou com um tiro limpo sobre o knockdown, mas eu tenho direito para cima e não ficou ferido.

 

“Esta vitória é um grande passo na minha carreira. Ele vai me ajudar a continuar a me subir no ranking no meu caminho para uma disputa de título.’’

 

Bujaj, que fazia sua estréia ShoBox, estava lívido depois.

 

"Inferno, sim, Eu estou bravo,"Ele disse. “A pontuação foi ruim. Eu sabia o que estava me metendo lutando em seu quintal, mas eu definitivamente pensei que ganhou. Eu o derrubei. Ele nunca me machucar.”

 

O Mendez agressivo de mente saiu pacientemente e permitiu Freitas para jogar a maioria dos primeiros socos. primeiro soco significativa Mendez’da luta foi um gancho de esquerda paralisante para o corpo que colocar Freitas para baixo e se contorcendo de dor.

 

“Fiquei surpreso que ele não levou esse tiro corpo bem, Disse Mendez, é que é treinado por Joel Diaz. “Eu sabia que machucá-lo, mas eu pensei que ele ia se levantar. Eu vi que ele não estava encobrindo muito bem, então eu sabia que eu estava indo para uma terra eventualmente.”

 

“Eu era surpreendentemente nervoso indo para essa luta. Fiquei um pouco tímido para começar. Eu costumo sair mais forte, mas não importa, porque nós temos o resultado que queríamos.”

 

“Eu estou bombeado para a vitória por nocaute. Eu sei que não durou muito tempo, mas espero que a audiência da TV gostei.”

 

Freitas controlava a maior parte da rodada com seu movimento e mais penetrante perfuração, mas um gancho selvagem ao corpo — seu terceiro ligar para o corpo — deixou o brasileiro na tela por muito tempo após o 10 contagem.

 

“eu estraguei,‘’ Um lágrimas Jones Freitas disse. “Parei na hora errada e ele me bateu com o soco direito. Isso não significa nada para mim. Vou continuar trabalhando duro e treinando duro. Eu quero uma revanche.”

Molina will be getting his second opportunity at a world title. Molina has won two straight since challenging WBC title holder Deontay Wilder em 2015, incluindo um 10th-TKO redonda sobre o ex-campeão do mundo Tomasz Adamek último Abril 4 in Poland.

Here’s what the heavyweights said:

ANTHONY JOSHUA:

“I don’t think that I’ll be rusty. I’m not going to say camp is smooth or great because it’s always tough and exhausting for the body. I needed a break because I live in the gym, it’s what I’ve been doing since I was 18 and I haven’t taken my foot off the gas since. The task is to express myself under the bright lights in the arena and show what we’ve worked on in the dark corners of the gym.

“I started preparing my body for camp and then training for this date. I don’t want to mention Wladimir Klitschko too much because that’s not the relevant opponent – Eric Molina is the man that will stand across the ring from me on Dezembro 10. He’s a tough competitor and represents a strong challenge to me. We are competing for my belt and the guys that want to become world champion raise their levels by 50-60 por cento.

“There’s nowhere to hide on fight night. There’s no change in my focus for Eric. Wladimir doesn’t enter the equation for me. People will talk about him and I’ll answer the questions, but that’s as far as it goes. He’s not in my mind, Eric is.

“It takes courage to step into the ring. Deontay Wilder is known as a one-punch KO artist and Eric stood up to his power, so it shows that he’s here to push the champion and take my title.

“I don’t get involved in other people’s issues or stories, it’s nothing to do with me. It wasn’t that long ago that no one cared what I was doing, so I don’t really have to prove myself to anyone aside from myself.

“The division has been blown wide open but they’ve been saying that for a while and they will keep saying it until someone dominates the division again. It’s not so much about brand and hype, it’s about guys like Eric that come with true heart and are gladiators and fight for the love of the sport, and leave everything in the ring on fight night.

“There’s a lot at stake and with Sky Sports and SHOWTIME behind us, this is a big stage to show what you have got. I’m serious about what I do and about moving forward. I don’t have a script, I can only speak from the heart; whatever Eric’s destiny is, that’s what will happen on the night. If his destiny is to become heavyweight champion, assim seja. But my destiny is to carry on the path I am on and put in a dominant performance on an explosive night of boxing in Manchester."

ERIC MOLINA:

“I’ve been in these fights before. I have no amateur experience so I’m learning no the job — and I’m getting better every fight. I fought five rounds against Wilder with a busted ankle, so everything you saw from me was done on one ankle. That’s the kind of guy this young man is facing. I fight with everything I’ve got. Even if I’m hurt, I still fight, because I know that one punch at any given moment can win me the fight. Anything can happen in the heavyweight division.

“I knew this fight was coming my way because nobody wants to fight him. Let’s be real. All the other fighters want to go and fight other guys and for the other belts and not face Anthony Joshua. I’m a guy that’s been in with Wilder – no one wants to fight Wilder, mas eu fiz, and that’s why I’m in London today and will be in Manchester on Dezembro. 10 putting it all on the line, body and soul. I want that IBF belt, I don’t have the option to go for another belt or down another route. This is it for me, and that means he’s going to have the toughest fight of his career, I can guarantee that.

“Tomasz Adamek had never been KO’d, so the momentum from that win in Poland was big. I felt it was time to take time off from work and put 100 percent into this.

“Back home, people know me as a certain type of fighter. On day one of my career I lost in the first round and that’s why on the back of my shirt it says ‘The Art Of Bouncing Back.’ Those aren’t just words. Boxing is the most brutal sport when it comes to trying to bounce back. Once you lose, everybody is gone from your side. There are fighters out there that say they want to bounce back but they don’t have the guts to put themselves in a position to do it. I put myself in the fight with Wilder and I went to Poland and beat Adamek to bounce back and show people who I am.

“You have to prove yourself in this sport and then you can claim the rewards. I didn’t have an easy road to get here, I’ve had to do it the hard way and I’ve earned my way here.’’

Taras Shelestyuk

 

“Herrera é um bom lutador, um lutador muito duro. Eu sei que ele derrotou alguns bons lutadores como Mike Jones, que era um lutador top que tinha estado fora um par de anos. Mas eu 100 por cento pronto. Espero uma luta muito dura e emocionante, mas eu espero ser muito mais forte e mais inteligente.

 

“Estou animado por toda a atenção esta luta e eu estamos nos. Eu sempre soube que os fãs na América ter me conhecido, mas talvez agora mais do que antes. Eu acho que no próximo ano, I pode se tornar ainda mais conhecida.

 

“Eu tenho trabalhado em força e tornar-se mais poderoso. Acho que minhas habilidades de boxe já são bons, mas a minha velocidade e poder são melhor do que antes. Eu me sinto em sparring que eu estou perfurando mais difícil.

 

“Eu gosto de trabalhar o corpo. I como o fato de que a terra suficiente deles cedo, eles tomam um pedágio tarde. Isso é uma coisa boa sobre a luta como profissional. Sinto-me bem sobre minha carreira; Espero estar lutando alguns dos melhores lutadores na divisão dentro de um ano.

 

“Tenho certeza de Herrera provavelmente vai tentar vir para mim; não há nenhuma chance de que ele pode me vencer no boxe. Gosto de caras que vêm para a frente. Eles são bons para mim, porque eu pode contrariar e mover-se lado a lado. E eu estou pronto para lutar no interior, se necessário.

 

“Eu sei que posso melhorar no meu último ShoBox luta. Eu fiz isso mais perto do que deveria ter sido. Se tivéssemos tudo de novo eu acho que talvez impedi-lo apenas por causa do que nós estamos trabalhando em no ginásio.

 

“Sparring com Shane Mosley tem sido enorme para mim. Ele é um grande lutador, tais. Quando eu era mais jovem, Gostaria de ver suas lutas. Agora vamos treinar. Ele é mais velho, mas ainda muito bom. Ele sabe todos os truques e me dá uma série de conselhos que me ajuda dentro e fora do ringue. Tudo o que ele me disse:, Eu tentei aplicar.”

 

JIMMY HERRERA:

“Eu tenho trabalhado um total de dois meses para essa luta, então eu estou pronto. Este vai ser um teste muito bom para nós dois, uma grande luta. Ele é um bom boxeador Europeia, outro invicto para mim. Mas eu não sinto que estou entrando como azarão em tudo. Ele tem seus pontos fortes, Eu tenho meus pontos fortes.

 

“Tem que haver um propósito para cada soco. Cada um tem que contar. Se ele se abre e comete um erro, Eu tenho que tirar proveito. Eu preciso tirá-lo de seu ritmo no início, forçá-lo para fora de sua zona de conforto e fazê-lo lutar a minha luta.

 

“Eu vou ser o agressor. Mas eu adoraria se ele era o agressor. Eu apenas penso, embora, conhecê-lo, ele vai tentar caixa e vencer os rounds dessa maneira. Eu trabalho o tempo todo vindo para a frente e isso é o que vou fazer amanhã.

 

“Um garoto de Chicago, Como eu, é difícil chegar a qualquer lugar no boxe sem conexões, Então, finalmente, depois de lutar tanto tempo sem um gerente, Eu assinei com Cameron Dunkin. Eu sempre soube que poderia ser um bom pugilista, mas nunca pensei que eu iria ser um boxeador. Mas olhe para mim saber, Estou lutando no canal Showtime, e essa luta não pode estar chegando ao longo de cada vez melhor “.

 

Constantin Bejenaru:

“Eu sinto sua carreira amadora lhe dá uma boa base, como um iniciante, mas uma vez que você ligar pro é um jogo totalmente diferente. Não importa quem tem mais experiência como um amador. como profissionais, todos nós temos que fazer o nosso trabalho aqui.

 

“Eu não sei Bujaj, mas eu vi sua luta com o Junior Wright então eu sei que ele é resistente.

 

“Eu sinto que este é um grande passo para mim. Ele é 16-0, um bom lutador que pode perfurar ou caixa, e isto é para uma correia. Esta uma luta boa para nós dois.

“Eu trabalho duro para cada luta e este não foi excepção. Sabemos que temos de prestar atenção aos detalhes. Este é um cara perigoso, mas estou muito confiante.

 

“Eu definitivamente não espera uma luta fácil. Eu tenho que pressionar a ação. Eu preciso para torná-lo tão desconfortável que eu puder.

 

“Eu não tenho um monte de pro nocautes mas o boxe não é apenas sobre o poder. O boxe é inteligência e mental; não é apenas uma briga de rua para mim.

 

“Esta é a minha segunda luta em ShoBox. Estou tão feliz por estar de volta novamente depois que a última vitória sobre Zubov. O objetivo é manter ocupado, voltar no início do próximo ano e, em seguida, em algum momento no próximo ano estar pronto para lutar por um título importante de algum tipo.’’

 

STEVE BUJAJ:

 

“Estou ansioso para essa luta, minha rede de TV pela primeira vez em, para ver onde eu estou. Da maneira que eu me sinto, Eu tenho tudo a ganhar, tudo a perder. Isto quer me empurra para o próximo nível, ou fico onde estou.

 

“Eu estou pronto para qualquer tipo de luta. Eu sou um lutador versátil e terei a vantagem de altura.

 

“Eu me sinto pronto agora para as lutas maiores, a exposição adicional no canal Showtime, as classificações, os títulos, tudo. Mas eu definitivamente será ainda mais depois Sexta-feira.

 

“Eu não sinto isso vai 10 rounds. Eu sinto que eu vou quebrá-lo para baixo e, eventualmente, impedi-lo. Eu sinto que tenho as habilidades e definitivamente o coração. Eu sou saudável e pronto para ir.

 

“Vi sua última luta em ShoBox, e pensei que era bastante decente. Ele é muito curto para um cruiserweight. Embora estamos ambos de Nova York, Eu nunca tinha ouvido falar dele antes.

 

“Acampamento foi impressionante com lotes de treino. Em Las Vegas. Eu treinei com lutadores Mayweather como Ronald Gavril, Badou Jack e Caleb Planta. Já se passaram quatro anos desde que eu lutei um canhoto, mas eu não considero fator.’’

 

VITOR JONES FREITAS:

“Agradeço a Deus e meus tios por me ajudar a chegar onde estou, por me ensinar e por me guiar em cada etapa da minha vida e no boxe. Sem a sua influência e o que eles fizeram para mim desde que eu era 11, Eu sinto que eu estaria morto hoje.

 

“Estou muito animado com esta luta e a oportunidade de lutar caras melhores. Isto para mim é tudo sobre aproveitando a oportunidade.

 

“Estou ficando mais e mais experiência. Meu objetivo é trabalhar duro e, como meu tio Acelino, fazer boas lutas e se tornar um campeão mundial “

 

“Nós estudamos estilo de luta Mendez’ e ter um grande respeito por seu treinador, Joel Diaz. Eu sei Mendez é muito forte e vem para a frente. Eu não sei se ele gosta quando seus oponentes atacar pelos lados, mas eu estou pronto para lutar com ele nas laterais, de frente e de igual para igual “.

 

MANUEL MENDEZ:

 

“Esta é a minha nona luta com Joel e nos conhecemos muito bem. Através do mau e bom, ele esteve lá para mim.

 

“Tenho certeza de Freitas tem confiança na sua capacidade, mas como qualquer outro lutador invicto ele faz bem até que ele bate na parede, que é o que Joel quer que eu faça-o fazer. Ele quer que eu puni-lo, tomar meu tempo.

 

“Sinto-me ter eu tenho poder natural, pode levar um soco e ter coração. Bata-me tanto quanto você quiser, mas cuidado, uma vez que se conectar e mudar as coisas. Meu objetivo é sempre para quebrá-las para baixo, começando com o corpo.

 

“Posso não ter o pedigree de alguns desses caras, mas estou aprendendo defesa, como passear sozinho, ficar pronta e mais importante, apenas como lutar. Quanto mais experiência, o mais maduro você se tornar.

 

"Amanhã Eu só quero ser eu e ouvir Joel no canto. Eu não gostaria de estar de pé a partir de mim. Se ele quer ficar e estrondo, vamos fazer isso. Eu garanto que ele é o único voltando após os primeiros momentos.”
