LAS VEGAS (Junho 10, 2021) - Tetracampeão mundial Gervonta “Tank” Davis realizou um treino de mídia em Las Vegas na quarta-feira, enquanto se aproxima de seu confronto contra o campeão WBA Super Lightweight Mario “El Azteca” Barrios que é a manchete de um SHOWTIME PPV de sábado, Junho 26 da premiada State Farm Arena em Atlanta em um evento Premier Boxing Champions.

Ingressos para o evento ao vivo na State Farm Arena, que é promovido pela Mayweather Promotions, Promoções GTD e Promoções TGB, já estão à venda e podem ser comprados em ticketmaster.com.

Uma das maiores estrelas do boxe com apenas 26 anos de idade, Davis chega a pesar até 140 libras pela primeira vez em sua carreira, com o objetivo de adicionar o campeão dos superleves a seu currículo estelar. Com uma vitória, Davis realizará campeonatos mundiais em três divisões diferentes simultaneamente, um feito apenas alcançado por alguns lutadores na história, incluindo Henry Armstrong e Canelo Alvarez.

Aqui está o que Davis, junto com o treinador Calvin Ford, Promoções Mayweather e CEO Leonard Ellerbe, tive que dizer quarta-feira do Mayweather Boxing Club:

GERVONTA DAVIS

“Não podemos dizer quem é o maior perfurador até entrarmos naquele ringue e testarmos o seu poder. Não importa quem é mais forte, Quero ser melhor do que ele em todos os aspectos e em todos os aspectos do jogo.

“As pessoas que estão aqui na academia comigo veem muitas coisas que não preciso destacar, mesmo nas minhas lutas. Floyd está sempre me dizendo para lutar boxe e usar minhas habilidades, e nem sempre procure o nocaute. Este acampamento em que estamos realmente trabalhando para voltar a isso e deixar o nocaute vir.

"Para mim, grandeza não é apenas retroceder. Eu só quero seguir em frente, não importa o que aconteça. Não importa quem está na minha frente, Eu só tenho que passar por eles. De onde eu sou, muitas pessoas não conseguem sair, então estou fazendo algo certo. Nem precisa ser um oponente, pode ser algo fora do ringue. Estou sempre perseguindo a grandeza.

“Minha coisa é vencer quem quer que seja colocado na minha frente. Quando for a hora, veremos quem é o cara mais importante. Até então, Eu não preciso falar sobre nenhum outro lutador além daquele na minha frente.

“Barrios e eu passamos pelos amadores juntos. Ele sabe o que tenho feito. É uma loucura como a vida às vezes funciona.

“Eu sou um jogador de equipe, então tudo o que minha equipe me disser deve ser feito para me melhorar, Eu sou totalmente a favor. Isso é o que me tornou tão bom. Eu não me destaquei sozinho. Eu tenho o melhor time no boxe.

“Minha última luta as pessoas reclamaram que Leo Santa Cruz era muito pequeno, então, basicamente, estou indo lá e mostrando que a diferença de tamanho não importa. Eu vou bater em quem eles colocarem na minha frente. Estou tentando perseguir a grandeza.

“Definitivamente, estou procurando derrubar o cara maior. Ele pode sentir que pode me acompanhar. Eu definitivamente estava assistindo Floyd lutar contra um cara muito maior em Logan Paul e recebendo algumas dicas dele.

“Eu não sei o que Barrios vai trazer, mas do meu lado, Estou trazendo tudo que tenho. Você sabe sempre que eu luto, Estou trazendo algo para os fãs aproveitarem. ”

CALVIN FORD, Treinador de Davis

“Os números de pay-per-view de 'Tank' abriram as portas para o resto deles. É por causa da mídia social de ‘Tank’. Quando as pessoas me perguntam por que as pessoas gravitam em torno dele – ele é como qualquer criança que vem do interior das cidades. Veja os jogadores de basquete - cidades do interior. Veja os jogadores de futebol - cidades do interior. Ele está mostrando a eles que se você colocar as pessoas certas ao seu redor e se dedicar a algo, tudo é possível.

"'Tanque', Devin Haney, Teofimo Lopez e Ryan Garcia serão os Quatro Reis se as lutas acontecerem. Vamos mantê-lo real. Agora, eles estão fazendo a mesma coisa que os Quatro Reis fizeram no estágio inicial. Tudo o que temos que fazer é sentar e deixar as mentes que estão, fazer as coisas deles. Vai acontecer. Todas essas lutas que as pessoas querem ver vão acontecer.

“Você notou que‘ Tank ’não chama ninguém? Ele nunca fez. Mas se você colocá-lo na frente de alguém, ele vai te mostrar. Se você conhece ‘Tank’ dos amadores, ele vai aparecer no ringue. Ele é como um bebê Mike Tyson.

“Não estou focado no peso, na verdade é o oponente. Quando comecei a estudar o adversário, seu treinador e eu voltamos nos amadores. Quando nos vemos, nós nos conhecemos. É sobre as mentes. Ele conhece seu atleta e eu conheço meu atleta. Naquela noite, é sobre as mentes. É sobre quem vai se apegar ao que deveria estar fazendo. Essa é a luta para mim.

“Eu não diria que este é o teste mais difícil da carreira de‘ Tank ’porque ninguém pode me mostrar o melhor de‘ Tank ’ainda. Eu conheço o melhor de ‘Tank’. Você não viu ‘Tank’. ”

LEONARD Ellerbe, CEO de Promoções Mayweather

“De cima a baixo, este é um daqueles eventos pay-per-view que você não quer perder. Anytime you have the most exciting fighter in the sport, you know it’s going to be big. Don’t expect anything less on June 26.

“Coach Calvin Ford is a tremendous trainer who’s been with Gervonta since day one and they have a great game plan in place. I fully expect him to be able to execute. But Barrios is coming for him. He’s got a great trainer himself in Virgil Hunter and has made great progression with Virgil.

“We know this is going to be a tough fight, but Gervonta just has to figure it out from the opening bell. And I believe he’ll do that, but it will take some time. Barrios is looking to upset the apple cart.

“Gervonta is molding into his comfort zone. Ele está se tornando mais confortável com a mídia porque ele realmente entende o que tem pela frente. Ele sabe que seu teto é ser a maior estrela do esporte. No interior do ringue, no entanto, nada mudou.

“O co-longa é uma luta incrível com Erickson Lubin enfrentando Jeison Rosario. Vai ser uma luta muito divertida. Uma vitória de Lubin o coloca um passo mais perto de seu objetivo final. Lubin se sente o melhor na categoria de peso e, eventualmente, corrigiu o erro de sua derrota para Jermell Charlo. Mas ele tem um lutador duro e robusto pela frente e isso deve ser uma luta emocionante.

“O ex-campeão unificado Julian Williams está tentando se recuperar contra Brian Mendoza no pay-per-view. Julian é obviamente um dos melhores lutadores da categoria, e ele está tentando recuperar o que perdeu.

“Na luta de abertura o duríssimo Batyr Akhmedov enfrenta Argenis Mendez, quem está sempre em modo go. Isso realmente mostra como este cartão é altamente divertido durante todo o. Estou muito animado por estar de volta à State Farm Arena. ”

JAKE PAUL VS. TYRON WOODLEY FACEOFF QUOTES AND PHOTOS

Deixe um comentário

CliqueAQUI para fotos de Amanda Westcott / SHOWTIME

MIAMI(Junho 4, 2021) – Social media superstar and undefeated pro boxerJake “o filho problemático” Paul faced off with his next opponent, five-time UFC championTyron Woodley, at the historic 5th Street Gym in Miami on Thursday ahead of their highly anticipated summer showdown on SHOWTIME PPV.

Here is what Paul and Woodley had to say following their heated stare down in Miami:

JAKE PAUL

“I told him I’ll pay you double your purse if you beat me. But if you lose, you have to pay your purse to my charity. He lacks confidence. Why wouldn’t you take that bet as a fighter if you knew you were going to win? To make double the money? This is the biggest pay day of your life and you can make double? Put your money where your mouth is.

“He’s a good striker. He’s known for knocking people out. But I think when I beat Tyron, people have to put respect on my name. But that’s not what I’m here for to be honest. I already know how good I am. I know that this is going to be another easy fight. That’s why SHOWTIME is in business with me. Você está olhando para o futuro do boxe.

“He’s not as good as me and he’s playing catch-up. We see holes in his whole entire game and he has try to learn how to box. He’s stiff. Muscles don’t fight and he’s going to be out of his element. This is boxing. This isn’t MMA. You can’t learn how to box in this amount of time. Now we’re going to show him the reins. The Disney kid is going to beat up the five-time UFC champion of the world. It’s going to be hilarious.

“I haven’t even shown my fighting abilities at all. I haven’t even made it past two rounds in my professional career. I haven’t been hit in the face. Nobody can even see if I have a chin or my inside fighting game. I haven’t even warmed up yet. And by the way, I’m the type of fighter that gets better the longer the fight goes on. Eu fico melhor no sparring, então eu nem consegui me aquecer e estou animado para mostrar minha habilidade se ele conseguir sair da primeira rodada.

“Eu previ cada uma das minhas lutas. Eu disse Ben Askren, primeiro round. Eu disse Nate Robinson, primeiro round. Ele chegou ao segundo. Eu disse na minha primeira luta profissional, primeiro round. Eu não acho que Tyron vai sobreviver em duas rodadas. Você pode nem mesmo conseguir ver minhas habilidades de boxe nesta luta para ser honesto. ”

TYRON WOODLEY

“Eu sempre quis boxear minha vida inteira, mas nunca fiz isso. Esta é minha oportunidade. Este é um garoto que é um perfurador de energia. Ele tem muita força por trás dele. Esta será uma grande plataforma para mostrar o que posso fazer em um ringue de boxe. E ele é um lutador. Ele pode lutar. No final do dia, você pode observá-lo e o tempo, o ritmo e o footwork estão lá.

“Ele não lutou muito tempo. Mas a pequena ação que vi foi limpa. Boa defesa. Nate estava correndo com ele, ele se protegeu e saiu de sua concha e o quebrou.

“Ele está tentando minimizar sua habilidade. Ele é um lutador. Não o deixe brincar com você dizendo, _ Sou apenas um YouTuber. _ Semana passada, ele era um lutador. Quando ele estava dizendo que ninguém queria lutar com ele, ele era um lutador. Você não é mais um YouTuber. Você não está na Disney. Já se passou muito tempo desde que ele esteve na Disney. É como se eu dissesse que sou apenas um lutador universitário e não soco as pessoas.

"Eu só quero me divertir. Eu quero treinar forte. Quero melhorar. Eu quero ir lá fora e fazer as coisas nos meus termos e ser aquele que manda. Eu quero ir lá e fazer história. Eu sempre faço história. Nem sempre recebo o crédito por isso, mas sou sempre o primeiro. Os lutadores sempre me perguntam o que devem fazer, o que eles estão fazendo de errado. Agora é hora de eu fazer isso sozinho. "

MIAMI(Junho 4, 2021) - Lutadores competindo no Mayweather vs. Paul SHOWTIME PPV undercard previewed their respective showdowns during a final press conference Friday before they enter the ring this Sunday, Junho 6 at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens.

Friday’s press conference featured two-division championBadou Jacke invictoDervin Hill, who meet in the 10-round light heavyweight co-main event, and former unified champion“Swift” Jarrett Hurdand veteran contenderLuis Arias, who square off in a 10-round attraction.

Also participating in the press conference was former NFL starChad Johnsonand versatile fighterBrian Maxwell, as Johnson makes his boxing debut in a special exhibition against Maxwell to kick off the pay-per-view telecast at 8 p.m. ET / 5 p.m. PT.

Tickets for the live event are on sale now and available for purchase through Ticketmaster.com.

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

JACK Badou

“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. Isto é o que eu faço. Eu nasci para isso. 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. Eu acho que muitas pessoas esqueceram quem eu era. Tive o melhor currículo na categoria de peso. Vem domingo, Vou lembrar a todos quem eu sou.

“É sempre estritamente profissional e será o mesmo no domingo. Arias está obcecado com meu peso e acha que estou lutando. Mas ele precisa se concentrar no que precisa fazer no domingo à noite.

“Não sei onde estou classificado agora, mas eu sou o melhor lutador em 154 libras. Mostrar isso para o mundo é a meta no domingo.

“Acabamos de voltar ao básico no campo de treinamento com meu treinador Kay Koroma. Você sempre pode aprender mais no esporte.

“Eu tenho lutado boxe por 15 anos agora e o treinador Koroma apenas me ajudou a desenvolver as coisas que eu já sabia. Ele me fez não apenas avançar e usar minha força, mas movendo-se e lutando um pouco de boxe. ”

LUIS ARIAS

“Acho que a narrativa é que eles precisavam de um oponente para Jarrett Hurd, e eu não estava tão bem ultimamente. Mas as pessoas tendem a esquecer que eu era 18-0 antes de eu ter minha primeira mancha. Quando eu estava com Floyd Mayweather, Eu estava 9-0 e foi quando eu estava mais confortável. Essa é a mentalidade que estou levando para essa luta.

“Estou perto do Floyd desde dezembro. Eu estive em Vegas treinando na altitude, assim como Hurd. Estou em ótima forma para essa luta e ele ainda precisa descobrir como vai lutar.

“Agora o mundo do boxe vai assistir a essa luta. 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. Mas é uma oportunidade muito grande e um cartão muito grande para reclamar do peso. Vamos colocar as luvas e tudo o que ele pesar, ele pesa. Essa vai ser a melhor luta do card. ”

CHAD JOHNSON

“Eu me sinto muito bem. Tenho usado o boxe para me preparar para o futebol ao longo dos anos, mas eu nunca fiz isso nesta magnitude. Para se preparar para uma luta real, é algo novo. Estou enfrentando um cara que faz isso para viver, então eu não estou levando isso levianamente.

“Eu estava sempre nervoso antes de cada pontapé inicial. Então, eu seria um tolo em dizer que não estou nervoso ao entrar em algo onde estou fora do meu elemento.


“Uma coisa em que sou extremamente bom, é quando há luzes, câmeras e uma multidão, 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. Mas adivinhem? Hoje, 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. mas ao mesmo tempo, 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, CEO de Promoções Mayweather

“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.”

BADOU JACK DO CAMPEÃO DE DUAS DIVISÕES PARA ENFRENTAR DERVIN COLINA NÃO BATIDO EM MAYWEATHER VS. PAUL SHOWTIME PPV

Deixe um comentário
MIAMI - (Junho 3, 2021) - campeão mundial de duas divisões Badou Jack vai enfrentar invicto Dervin Hill em uma luta de 10 rounds meio-pesados ​​que serve como o Mayweather vs. Paul SHOWTIME PPV co-evento principal neste domingo, Junho 6 do Hard Rock Stadium em Miami Gardens.

Colina substitui Jean Pascal, que foi originalmente escalado para enfrentar Jack antes de falhar em um teste de drogas antes da luta.

A transmissão do pay-per-view começará ao vivo às 8 p.m. ET / 5 p.m. PT and will feature former unified 154-pound champion “Swift” Jarrett Hurd assumindo Luis Arias in a 10-round showdown, plus former NFL star wide receiver Chad Johnson will make his boxing debut in an exhibition match against versatile fighter Brian Maxwell.

Jack won the 168-pound world title with a majority decision against Anthony Dirrell in 2015 and successfully defended the belt three times before being handed a hard-fought majority draw against James DeGale in one of 2017’s best fights. In his first bout at 175 libras, Jack stopped Nathan Cleverly to pick up the WBA light heavyweight title before fighting to a majority draw against then WBC champion Adonis Stevenson in May 2018. After dropping a narrow fight to Pascal in 2019, Jack’s most recent outing saw him earn a unanimous decision over Blake McKernan in November 2020.

The 33-year-old Colina (15-0, 13 KOs) lives in Medellin, Colômbia, and is a native of Venezuela. He steps in on short notice to make his United States debut against Jack. Colina has competed at both super middleweight and light heavyweight in recent years and is riding a six-fight knockout streak into June 6. Colina has been training with renowned coach Stacy McKinley for the last two months in Pompano Beach, Florida.

CARSON, CALIF.(Maio 29, 2021) -Nonito Donaire is champion once again. Fourteen years after he won his first world title, the “Filipino Flash” cemented his Hall of Fame credentials with a sensational fourth-round KO win overNordine Oubaalito capture the WBC World Bantamweight title Saturday night in the SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING main event from Dignity Health Sports Park in Carson, Califa. in a Premier Boxing Champions event.

“The king has returned,” Donaire beamed afterward. “I just love the crowds. All my friends, família, all the boxing fans that came out thank you so much. You guys are wonderful.”

The 38-year-old Donaire (41-6, 27 KOs) is now the oldest world champion ever at 118-pounds. He accomplished it with the left hand that has been the calling card of his career as he dropped Oubaali (17-1, 12 KOs) three times in total.

“Being at this age is not the question, it’s about my performance,” said Donaire. “About my ability to grow. I believe it matters not what your age is, but how mentally strong you are. What I learned from the [Naoya] Inoue fight is that I’m back. I can still compete at this level. The whole time I was not fighting, I was learning. I’m ready for the next one.”

Following a feel-out first round, Donaire went to work in the second, walking Oubaali down and countering with thudding effect. Donaire scored the first knockdown early in the third, dropping Oubaali with his trademark counter left hook. The Frenchman rose on unsteady legs and Donaire pounced, landing more big shots until another left hook floored Oubaali just a split second before the round ended. Novamente, Oubaali struggled to his feet, dazed yet willing to fight on.

The end came swiftly in the fourth. Donaire expertly maneuvered Oubaali around the ring, pinning him against the ropes where a left uppercut sent Oubaali crumpling to the canvas for a third and final time. Referee Jack Reiss immediately called it off. The official time of the stoppage was 1:52 of the fourth round.

“Three decades of being world champion. Nine-time world champion. That’s amazing,” said Donaire. “I came in here and I felt really good. Today I knew exactly what was going to happen. I knew exactly what I was going to do. I think I was just very focused in the gym. I was very, very focused. I just felt really good coming in and I was grateful to get this opportunity.

“Tonight was something that I had to prove to the world that I’m back and I’m stronger than ever. He was a very tough guy. I think ultimately for me, there was a level of should I be more patient? Or should I go for it? Something I learned in the Inoue fight was to go for the kill. And that’s exactly what I did. I was patient, but I knew he was hurt enough that I could take him out.”

Na co-metragem, Puerto Rico deSubriel Matias (17-1, 17 KOs) delivered another power-punching display, breaking down previously-unbeatenBatyr Jukembayev (18-1, 14 KOs) until Jukembayev’s corner stopped the bout after eight riveting rounds.

“I think this is what everybody expected. Everybody knew it was going to be a great war,” said Matias. “This was going to end by knockout whether I was going to get knocked out or Jukembayev was going to get knocked out. I’m just glad it was me who knocked him out.”

Matias establishes himself as one of the best in a stacked division, but this latest win wasn’t easy. Kazakhstan’s Jukembayev came out strong, landing a right hook-right uppercut combination upstairs from his southpaw stance that got Matias’ attention in the first.

Jukembayev pushed the pace in the second. Matias began letting his hands go in the third, throwing in combination to the head and body. Both combatants were now fully warmed up, setting the stage for a fourth round that could be a candidate for “Round of the Year.”


It began when a hard left hook staggered Jukembayev and drove him to the canvas. Matias sought to close the show but Jukembayev held on, cleared his head and started landing his own shots. With a minute left in the stanza, Jukembayev stunned Matias with a left cross. Instead of clinching, Matias fought fire with fire, bringing the crowd out of their seats with toe-to-toe action until the bell sounded.

Matias never stopped coming forward. Following a one-sided sixth, Jukembayev returned to his corner with both eyes swelling shut. The back and forth ensued in the seventh as Jukembayev buzzed Matias with two right hooks toward the end of the round.

Matias returned to the driver’s seat in the eighth round, pounding away at Jukembayev with both fists. No total, he out-landed Jukembayev by 100 socos (234/608 para 134 /409) and was more accurate (38.5% para 32.8%). The accumulation of blows was enough to convince Jukembayev’s corner to request the bout be stopped.

“He knew he had nothing to lose. He came in and was doing everything strong,” said Matias. “He knew that all he could do was knock me out to win. I would have done the same thing. That’s a warrior’s heart and he has all my respect.

“After that fourth round, I mean he is a very competitive fighter, so it turned into a war after that point. My hands go up to him as well. Foi uma grande luta. I definitely have had other opponents that were very good, but this is the one that has given me the hardest test.”

Na abertura da cerimônia, Gary Antuanne Russell (14-0, 14 KOs) continued his ascent up the super lightweight ranks. The undefeated Russell became the first to stop the ruggedJovanie Santiago (14-2-1, 10 KOs), dominating Santiago until referee Sharon Sands halted the contest following the sixth round at the suggestion of Santiago’s corner.

“The objective is to get the man out as soon as possible and come out unscathed,” said Russell. “I just want to say that Santiago was a class-A opponent. A lot of people think he beat Adrien Broner. I want Adrien Broner now.”

With older brother and WBC World Featherweight Champion Gary Russell Jr. working his corner, Gary Antuanne controlled the action from the opening bell. O 2016 Olympian worked the jab and straight left behind the southpaw stance, snapping Santiago’s head back several times in the first.

Russell, 24, continued to land the left in the second and third. Early in the fourth, he followed up a straight left to the ribs with a short right hook upstairs that dropped Santiago to a knee. Puerto Rico’s Santiago gamely rose to his feet and survived the follow-up onslaught to make it out of the round.

“The importance to me is to execute round-by-round, and round-by-round, I was executing more and more. My father told me to go to the body, right hook upstairs. He was open to that,” said Russell.

Russell showed no signs of slowing despite being extended beyond four rounds for the first time in his pro career. The Capital Heights, Md. product battered Santiago in the sixth, landing punishing combinations throughout the frame. Momentos depois, the bout was stopped.

“It’s definitely important to me to perform so I’m not just known as Gary Russell’s younger brother,” said Russell, que desembarcou 146 de 444 socos (32.9%). “I come from an excellent background of fighters. We’re building a dynasty.

“How soon do I want to get back in the ring? If I could fight on the Deontay Wilder card, that would be great.”

Saturday’s SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast will replay Sunday, Maio 30 em 9 a.m. ET/PT on SHOWTIME and Monday, Maio 31 em 10 p.m. ET / PT no Showtime EXTREME.

Aqui está o que os lutadores tinham a dizer quinta-feira:

NORDINE OUBAALI

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

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

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

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

NONITO DONAIRE

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

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

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

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

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

“I want to fight the best out there. I want the rematch with Naoya Inoue and I want to get all the belts. The only thing I haven’t accomplished in boxing is becoming undisputed champion. I’ve done everything else. Lutador do Ano. Knockout do Ano. Multiple championships. Campeão de quatro divisões. You name it. That’s my main goal. Get the belt and put them all together.

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

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

SUBRIEL MATIAS

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

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

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

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

BATYR JUKEMBAYEV

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

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

GARY ANTUANNE RUSSELL

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

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

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

“I definitely want to stay more active. That’s always been my plan. The pandemic slowed things down. Fans always tell me they want to see me get back in there…I just tell them, me too. The fighters aren’t the ones pulling all of the strings. Should I be more active? Claro. 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. Até então, you’re going to have to wait and see. Come Saturday, it will be a great show. There will be some sparks and fireworks. I have an opponent that’s not willing to lay down. If he’s not willing to, I must make him lay down.”

JOVANIE SANTIAGO

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

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

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

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

HOUSTON- (Maio 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. Agora, he will look to take that same formula into his boxing debut when he steps into the ring for an exhibition against versatile fighterBrian Maxwellno domingo, 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,”Disse Johnson. "Para mim, 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. Contudo, 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,”Disse 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,”Disse 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.”

LOS ANGELES - Hoje, BELLATOR MMA confirmou que Não. 6 pluma classificadosAaron Pico (7-3) foi adicionado aoBELLATOR MMA 260: Lima vs. Amosovcard principal na sexta-feira, Junho 11, onde ele vai se opor ás de lutaAiden Lee(9-4), em uma luta de 145 libras. A luta acontecerá na Mohegan Sun Arena em Uncasville, Conn. e será transmitido ao vivo no SHOWTIME às 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT.

Bellator 260 será estrelado pelo campeão mundial dos meio-médiosDouglas Lima(32-8), que defenderá seu título de 170 libras contra o invicto e melhor classificado Yaroslav Amosov(25-0).

O evento marca o primeiro evento com a participação de fãs do BELLATOR nos Estados Unidos desdeBellator 239 aconteceu em fevereiro 21, 2020. Um número limitado de ingressos começando em $60 já estão disponíveis e podem ser adquiridos através da Ticketmaster ou em Bellator.com.

Desde sua estreia profissional no MMA no 2017, Aaron Pico tem sido amplamente considerado uma das perspectivas mais brilhantes do esporte. O lutador de Jackson Wink demonstrou uma perspicácia de wrestling que se equipara aos melhores do mundo, junto com o poder de soco vicioso que lhe rendeu vitórias impressionantes por KO com a mão esquerda e direita. O jogador de 24 anos tem mostrado um crescimento constante a cada vez que está na gaiola BELLATOR e atualmente está em uma seqüência de três vitórias consecutivas.

Lutando pela primeira vez em solo americano, Lee, de 26 anos, busca garantir sua terceira vitória consecutiva dentro da jaula BELLATOR. Um especialista em submissões subestimado, o inglês conquistou sua quarta vitória na carreira com um mata-leão contra Damian Frankiewicz e um nocaute com um chute na cabeça impressionante contra Jeremy Petley na primeira rodada do confronto em setembro passado.

Adicionalmente, uma luta de meio-médio entre veterano BELLATORKyle Crutchmer (6-1) e estreante promocionalLevan Chokheli(9-0, 1 NC) foi adicionado como uma luta preliminar. Crutchmer, que treina na AKA em San Jose, lutou na Oklahoma State University, onde se tornou duas vezes All-American e duas vezes Big 12 campeão. Entrementes, Chokheli procura manter seu histórico impecável ao mesmo tempo em que causa uma boa primeira impressão em sua estreia no BELLATOR. O georgiano de 24 anos ostenta um impressionante 100% taxa de acabamento, nunca tendo visto o sino final em todas as suas nove lutas.

Também adicionado ao cartão preliminar, "O bicho papão," Lance Wright(5-1) fará sua estreia no BELLATOR após uma exibição impressionante no cenário regional americano. Ele terá a tarefa de lutarTaylor “Tombstone” Johnson (6-2), um veterano de duas lutas da gaiola BELLATOR.
