**UNCASVILLE, Conn.** – December 20, 2020 – Undefeated bantamweight **Reymart Gaballo** scored a controversial split-decision victory over former world champion **Emmanuel Rodriguez** in the main event of Saturday night’s *SHOWTIMEBOXING: EDIZIONE SPECIALE* dalla Mohegan Sun Arena di Uncasville, Conn., in un evento presentato da Premier Boxing Champions. Con la vittoria, Gaballo picked up the vacant interim WBC Bantamweight Title.

Saturday’s headliner in the last SHOWTIME BOXING event of 2020 was competitive from the opening bell. In only three of the twelve rounds were Rodriguez and Gaballo separated by more than three landed punches. Generale, Gaballo (24-0, 20 KO) buttato 148 more punches than Rodriguez (19-2, 12 KO), but still managed to connect on 16 fewer power punches. The punches of the 28-year-old Rodriguez seemed to be cleaner, as he wobbled the Filipino Gaballo on more than one occasion. Tuttavia, two of the judges favored Gaballo’s aggression over Rodriguez’s ring generalship.

SHOWTIME’s unofficial scorer Steve Farhood scored the fight 118-110 in favor of Rodriguez and SHOWTIME analyst and former world champion Raul Marquez was dismayed by the judges’ decision.

“There’s no way Gaballo could have won that fight," disse Marquez. “In the worst-case scenario, you could have maybe given him three rounds. I gave him no rounds.”

“I am very happy and blessed to win this belt,” said the 24-year-old Gaballo. “I was always moving forward and controlling the pace, so I thought it was a close fight that either of us could have won.

“I’m waiting for my team to tell me what they have planned for me next. I’m going to keep training hard so I’m always ready for the opportunity when it comes.”

“It was a good fight, but he only won about two or three rounds,"Ha detto Rodriguez. “There were two punches from me for every punch he landed. He knows he lost. Everyone knows we won. My team told me to go out and keep boxing him in the late rounds. We knew he needed a knockout in the twelfth round. That was his only chance to win.”

In caso di co-main, Philadelphia’s undefeated welterweight sensation **Jaron Ennis** (26-0, 24 KO) saw his impressive 16-fight knockout streak come to a disappointing end after an accidental headbutt in the first round caused a brutal cut to the forehead of his opponent, **Chris van Heerden** (28-2-1, 12 KO).

With only two minutes and thirty-nine seconds inside the ring to showcase his skills, Ennis was still able to flash glimpses of his championship potential as he landed 22 di 57 punzoni, 19 of them power shots as he appeared destined to stop the South African van Heerden and keep his KO streak alive before the clash of heads.

“Before the headbutt I had already cut him and I felt strong,” said a disappointed Ennis. “I knew he was ready to go. I feel like I’m getting better and better. Now I’ll just get back in the gym. As you could see from the first round, I was handling him easily. I feel like everyone is still sleeping on me, but I’m ready for anyone. Bring on the big names.”

In apertura trasmissione televisiva, bantamweight contender **Gary Antonio Russell** (18-0, 12 KO) kept his unblemished record intact with a technical decision victory over former world champion **Juan Carlos Payano** (21-5, 9 KO). After an accidental headbutt caused a bad cut to the left brow of Payano, referee David Fields stopped the fight after the sixth round at the advice of the ringside physician. The fight went to the scorecards, where Russell led on all three cards (58-56, 59-55, 59-55).

Prima l'infortunio, Russell and Payano were engaged in a scrappy brawl that saw multiple exchanges of power punches. In the closing seconds of the sixth, and ultimately final round, Russell caught Payano with a counter-shot that hurt Payano. Russell landed 86 di 243 punches while Payano landed just 58 di 268 punzoni. Russell flashed excellent body work throughout the fight, out landing Payano 40 a 17 on body shots.

In SHOWTIME BOXING Prelims action that streamed live on the Canale YouTube sportivo di SHOWTIME e Showtime Boxing pagina Facebook, highly regarded 21-year-old prospect Brandun Lee (21-0, 19 KO) extended his knockout streak to 13 with a third-round stoppage of Dakota Linger (12-5-2, 8 KO) and Benjamin Whitaker (15-4, 3 KO) scored a majority decision victory (76-76, 77-75, 79-73) over previously unbeaten prospect Zsolt Daranyi (15-1, 14 KO).

CHRIS COLBERT AIMS TO “SHOW EVERYONE WHY I’M ONE OF THE BEST 130-POUNDERS IN THE WORLD” AGAINST JAIME ARBOLEDA

Dicembre 10, 2020 FNU47 Lascia un commento

***Unbeaten Interim WBA Super Featherweight Champion Colbert Battles Hard-Hitting Arboleda in Main Event Live on SHOWTIME^® questo Sabato, Dicembre 12***

**NEW YORK – Dicembre 8, 2020 –** Unbeaten interim WBA Super Featherweight Champion **Chris "Primetime" Colbert** will look to make a statement in his first nationally televised main event as he faces hard-hitting **Jaime Arboleda** in diretta su SHOWTIME questo sabato, Dicembre 12 a 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT in an event presented by Premier Boxing Champions from Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn.

“I always knew I was going to get here,” said Colbert. “It’s all God’s plan. This is just going to be another day for me and I’ll show everyone why I’m one of the best 130-pounders in the world.”

The 24-year-old Colbert has shot up the rankings of the 130-pound weight class and believes that a victory on Saturday night will lead to bigger opportunities in the jam-packed division.

“This is one of the most stacked divisions in boxing and I love competing in it,” said Colbert. “It’s great to be getting noticed in a division that has this much talent, and hopefully it’ll lead to me getting the big fights that I need. I don’t feel like there’s any certain fighter I’m targeting, but Gervonta Davis, Leo Santa Cruz and Jamel Herring would all be great fights for me. Beating them would help me become ‘the guy’ in the division.”

Colbert’s rise continued in his last fight, as he scored a 10^th-round knockdown against former champion Jezreel Corrales on his way to a decision win while showing an impressive array of skills against a fighter determined to slow the action through holding and other veteran tricks.

“Against Corrales I learned not to rush,” said Colbert. “It’s not a sprint, it’s a marathon. I can’t just go rush in there and expect everyone to get knocked out. I had to take my time, do what I do best and stick to my game plan.”

In the 26-year-old Arboleda, Colbert will be presented with another rising 130-pound contender with his own sights set on emerging amongst the elite in the division. Arboleda has won five of his last six fights by stoppage and most recently dropped Jayson Velez on his way to a decision victory in February on SHOWTIME.

“Come December 12, Sono pronto per tutto ciò che porta,” said Colbert. “I expect him to bring pressure and ‘try’ to make me tired because that’s the only chance he has. He can’t outbox me. That’s not happening. But I love to bang inside and I’m ready for whatever he does. I hope he doesn’t run or clinch me because I’d love to get the knockout and get him out of there early.”

The Brooklyn-native Colbert has continued to work with his longtime coach Aureliano Sosa in his hometown through the difficulties of the pandemic. Those difficulties have led to Colbert sparring with larger welterweight and super welterweights in camp, which Colbert believes could help him with the power Arboleda will bring into the fight.

“Training camp has been going great for the most part,” said Colbert. “It’s just been a little hard finding sparring partners. But because it’s been difficult to find fighters at my weight I’ve actually been sparring with 147 and 154-pound fighters. I honestly love that because it prepares me better, and who’s to say that Arboleda won’t have power like them? I’m on weight now, anche se, and ready to put on a show on December 12.”

RICHARDSON HITCHINS TRAINING CAMP QUOTES & FOTO

***“I truly believe I am the best up and coming fighter in the game”***

**Unbeaten Rising Super Lightweight Prospect Hitchins Battles Former Champion Argenis Méndez In Co-Main Event Live on SHOWTIME^® questo Sabato, Dicembre 12**

**NEW YORK – Dicembre 7, 2020 –** Unbeaten rising prospect **Richardson Hitchins** shared details of his training camp, including pointers and motivation he received from Floyd Mayweather and Gervonta Davis, ahead of his super lightweight showdown against former world champion **Argenis Méndez** in diretta su SHOWTIME questo sabato, Dicembre 12 a 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT in an event presented by Premier Boxing Champions from Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn.

“Floyd helped me tremendously while I was back in Las Vegas,” said Hitchins. “I already have the fundamentals as a fighter, but he showed me little things here and there and workouts that I have taken back home with me while I train for this fight. I’m not shy about my ability as a fighter, because I truly believe I am the best up and coming fighter in the game, so these are the kind of fights I need in order to show the world who Richardson Hitchins is.

“Gervonta has been instrumental in past fight camps as well, and he’s the type of person you need. He pushes you to go harder. We go head-to-head in trying to outdo each other, and that’s the type of competition that’s needed in order to really be the best.”

Despite training throughout the pandemic, Hitchins has been able to remain on task and on track throughout his camp that began in Las Vegas before ending in his native Brooklyn under the guidance of his head coach Lenny Wilson.

“The thing about me is, I’m focused no matter what,” said Hitchins. “I don’t take ‘off’ after my fights. I stay in shape all year round; I don’t need to get ready in terms of conditioning or getting my body back in shape because this is my job. I take my job very seriously. The discipline Floyd has had throughout his career is the same discipline I have. I have watched my idols and taken things from them so that I can put myself in a position to win.

“I don’t think the pandemic or the holidays necessarily altered my training. I still have access to my gym. There’s nothing that’s going to stand in my way of becoming great. The pandemic doesn’t slow me down, it’s just another roadblock to test my dedication to the sport.”

The 23-year-old Hitchins represented Haiti at the 2016 Olympic Games and will return to the ring after debuting in 2020 with a 10-round decision victory over Nicholas DeLomba in February. It was Hitchins’ second 10-round decision win after his previous fight saw him best Kevin Johnson following 10 rounds in November 2019.

“I often think back to my fight against Kevin Johnson, he’s a tough fighter and he’s the one who I can confidently say brought the best out of me,” said Hitchins. “Those are the fights that make me look back and watch closely the things I need to work on. That fight also showed me that no one should be overlooked, so going into this fight against Mendez, I’m not overlooking him.”

Méndez presents the most accomplished opponent of Hitchins’ young career. The 34-year-old former champion most recently fought Juan Heraldez and Anthony Peterson to draws in 2019, and scored victories over Eddie Ramirez and Ivan Redkach prior to that. For Hitchins, the strong resume of his opponent is something he relishes as a measuring stick for his progress.

“He’s a veteran, he’s been in there with a lot of tough guys and he’s a former world champion, so he clearly has a skill set that I think I need to face at this point in my career,” said Hitchins. “I need those big fights. He’s older now, but I feel like him in his prime still couldn’t touch my skillset. It’s my job to prove that.

“I know this won’t be an easy fight, but I’ll be prepared for whatever he brings. My motivation is to be more than ordinary. I will fulfill my goals when this is all said and done, and honestly, I’m just waiting for this fight to come so I can show that. Whether it’s Méndez, or whoever, the conviction I have and how I feel about myself is stronger than anything standing in front of me in that ring.”

IN THE RING WITH HECTOR “MACHO” CAMACHO: PAST OPPONENTS SHARE THEIR STORIES AND INSIGHTS ABOUT THE LEGENDARY WORLD CHAMPION

Novembre 27, 2020 FNU47 Lascia un commento

MACHO: THE HECTOR CAMACHO STORY Premieres Friday, Dicembre 4 a 9 PM ET/PT on SHOWTIME ^®

A group of people around each other

Description automatically generated — *Courtesy of SHOWTIME*

NEW YORK – November 24, 2020 – Past opponents of legendary boxing icon Hector “Macho” Camacho, including “Sugar” Ray Leonard, Felix “Tito” Trinidad and Hall of Fame trainer Freddie Roach, share their first-hand experiences with the former world champion and recall his trademark flamboyant style in advance of the MACHO: LA STORIA DI HECTOR CAMACHO documentary premiere Friday, Dicembre 4 a 9 p.m. ET / PT su Showtime.

MACHO: LA STORIA DI HECTOR CAMACHO is an unflinching look at the remarkable life, storied career and unsolved murder of one of boxing’s greatest showmen. Through rare and revealing interviews with his mother, Maria Matias, sorelle, moglie Amy e figlio Hector Jr., il documentario approfondisce anche la mente e lo spirito tormentato del leggendario combattente, his battle with addiction and the inner turmoil that ultimately led to his demise – a mysterious double homicide on a roadside in November 2012. The film isdirected by two-time Emmy^® Il vincitore del premio Eric Drath. Drath and Danielle Naassana, entrambi di Live Star Entertainment, served as producers and sixteen-time Emmy Award winner Aaron Cohen served as writer and consulting producer.

In addition to Leonard, Trinidad and Roach, past world champions Ray Mancini, Greg Haugen, Vinny Pazienza and more reminisce about climbing into the ring against the flashy and skilled Hector “Macho” Camacho:

SUGAR RAY LEONARD – March 1, 1997; In Ray Leonard’s final career fight, Camacho won by fifth-round TKO: “We were both naturally past our prime, but I just felt that I was a bigger man. I was smarter, più forte, all those things, but the first time he threw a punch, era come, Pow! And I said, ‘Wow, that hurt.’ I tried the best I could to just go the distance. When he was at his best, he was a thing of beauty.”

FELIX “TITO” TRINIDAD - Gennaio 29, 1994; IBF Welterweight Title: “I first met Macho Camacho when I was 12 years old at an indoor arena event in Puerto Rico. He was already a world champion. I was in awe. Camacho was talking to everyone and being himself. He ate 12 empanadas at once just to be funny.

“When I got to fight him, it was my third title defense. Ero 21 and he was 10 years older than me. He had so much experience and played so many mind games. At the final press conference, he sat at the very end of the table – sideways, kind of ignoring the press – and staring at me. When it was his time to talk, he just talked trash. He was such a showman. When we got in the ring in Las Vegas, like every fighter at a crossroads fight, I was a little nervous. He was such a great fighter. He was so experienced and technical. He was a little crazy but was such a good person. Umile.

“After the fight, he came over with his chin down and congratulated me. He was like a different person – he was so friendly and calm. ‘It was a good fight,’ he told me. ‘You are going to be a great champion. Keep on climbing.’ It was a great experience for me. After that fight, I felt something had changed in me as a fighter. I had shared a ring with Macho Camacho. You are never the same after that. He helped me be a better fighter. He was the first Puerto Rican I ever faced. The only fighter that cut me. I got my win against him the same night [Frankie] Randall handed Julio Cesar Chavez his first defeat. It was a historic night.”

FREDDIE ROACH – December 18, 1985; Camacho won a super lightweight bout via unanimous decision to improve to 28-0: “Hector Camacho was the best boxer I ever fought. His speed was unbelievable. At one point during the fight, we were in a clinch and I bit his shoulder. He stepped back, smiled, and told me, ‘That’s not going to work.’ He was right. I had so much trouble handling his speed. You just couldn’t prepare for it – and I had a really good training camp. I was really up for that fight. I think I won one round and that was only because I stepped on his foot and got a knock down. After the fight, we bumped into each other in our hotel lobby and he took me to dinner at the hotel restaurant. We talked and laughed throughout dinner. He was a great guy.”

RAY MANCINI – March 6, 1989; Camacho won a split decision for the vacant WBO Junior Welterweight title: “Hector had an uncanny ability to avoid punches. He had excellent hand speed, movement and reflexes. He got in the ring with everybody. And he was funny as hell. All'inizio, I couldn’t stand him. But once we were retired, we buried the hatchet and every time we’d see each other, it was hugs and laughs. He made everyone laugh. He was a good soul. I was heartbroken when I heard the news about his murder. In my book, when you talk about all-time greats, he is in the top five for Puerto Rican fighters and top 20 for Latino fighters.”

GREGHAUGEN - Febbraio 23, e forse 18, 1991; Camacho’s first career loss and the rematch for WBO Jr. Welterweight World Championship: “Camacho was looking for a tune-up fight for the big battle of the undefeateds with Julio Cesar Chavez so that’s how I got the fight. But I had studied his fights and I knew Hector only liked to fight a minute, minute and a half of each round. My plan going into the fight was to make him fight three minutes of each round. I was hitting him with body shots and he was wincing. And plus, I was talking to him the whole fight, so he was getting frustrated. So we get to the 12^th round and he ends up sucker punching me before the start of the round because I refused to touch gloves, and they end up taking a point from him which won me the fight. (Nella rivincita) he was so sure he lost the fight, he actually left the ring after the fight. The promoter Dan Duva had to pull him out of his dressing room and basically talk him into getting back in the ring to hear the decision. He had to win that fight because that would line him up with Chavez. I thought I beat him more so in the second fight than the first fight.”

VINNY PAZIENZA – February 3, 1990; Camacho won a unanimous decision for the WBO Junior Welterweight title: “I thought I was going to wreck him. I thought I was going to go right through him. But he was much stronger and much faster than I believed. And I was thinking, ‘Oh God, I’m in for a long night.’ He got ready for me like no other fight. He was so amped and so ready. He got off all the drugs. He wasn’t drinking. He got up so high and after he beat me, he was never the same again. Hector was such a character. He surpasses me in that capacity. He was a wild guy and he was wild his whole life.”

PJ GOOSSEN – June 18, 1999; Camacho won a unanimous decision at the age of 37 to improve his record to 68-4-1: “That was a bad night for me. I had three broken ribs, and no one really knew it. Così, I could barely breathe, let alone fight, but that’s what you have to do in boxing sometimes. As we were getting ready for the fight, his dressing room was right next to mine and they had this door separating us. I could hear him before the fight yelling, ‘Macho time!’ ‘Macho time!’ And he hits the wall. And he keeps doing that, yelling louder and louder. Bene, he hit the door so hard it busted through and he fell into my dressing room. Così, he gets up and walks back in around through the other opening and says, ‘Sorry about that.’ It was actually pretty funny and me and my dad and brother were laughing. To come back in and apologize when he’s supposed to be getting hyped up to fight me. I would mark him down as one of the best lefthanders there ever was, especially when he was at featherweight and lightweight.”

The event is promoted by TGB Promotions and Sampson Boxing. Hitchins vs. Mendez is co-promoted by Mayweather Promotions.

Nordine Oubaali vs. Nonito Donaire was originally scheduled to take place on December 12 but was postponed after Oubaali tested positive for COVID-19.

“This main event on December 12 will pit two of the 130-pound division’s most exciting rising talents against each other as the sublimely skilled Chris Colbert faces the powerful Jaime Arboleda in a can’t-miss showdown,"Ha detto Tom Brown, Presidente di Promotions TGB. “The co-main event will see two middleweight contenders in Matt Korobov and Ronald Ellis looking to show that they’re among the division’s elite, while the SHOWTIME opener features the exciting prospect Richardson Hitchins against the always tough Argenis Mendez in a big step up fight. These are three evenly-matched bouts that should make for nonstop drama on fight night.”

Representing his native Brooklyn, N.Y., Colbert (14-0, 5 KO) has quickly shot up the 130-pound rankings, taking on high-level competition in his first 14 lotte pro. The 24-year-old beat then-undefeated fighters Austin Dulay, Titus Williams and Antonio Dubose, all in his first eight fights as a professional. In 2019, Colbert added four more victories to his tally, including an explosive first-round knockout of veteran Miguel Beltran Jr. Più di recente, Colbert won his interim title by dropping former super featherweight champion Jezreel Corrales on his way to a unanimous decision in their January 2020 clash.

“I’m super excited to be making my big stage debut in the main event,” said Colbert. “It’s been a long camp, but training is going great. I’m looking to put on a dominant performance, and I’m looking for the knockout if it’s there. If I can get it, that would be splendid. I know Jaime is going to come to fight. He wants the belt as bad as I want to keep the belt. It’s all going to come down to stamina, ring IQ and who has the greater will to win. I feel like I’m the guy for the job. There’s no way in hell I’m giving up my belt in my first defense.”

The 26-year-old Arboleda (16-1, 13 KO) has amassed an impressive six-fight winning streak heading into the matchup against Colbert, with five of those victories coming inside of the distance. Born in Curundu, Panama, and now fighting out Miami, Fla. Arboleda has fought professionally since 2014 and scored knockouts over two then-undefeated opponents in 2019, Victor Betancourt and Jose Saant. Nel suo ultimo incontro, Arboleda, who is ranked fourth in the 130-pound division by the WBA, bested former world title contender Jayson Velez by unanimous decision to win his first 12-round fight this February on SHOWTIME.

“Every boxer’s dream is to fight for a title and be victorious without leaving any doubt,” said Arboleda. “That is my plan for December 12. I’m having the best preparation of my entire career. Mi sento benissimo, strong and fast like never before. I’m sure it will be a very exciting fight from the very first round.”

Korobov (28-3-1, 14 KO) returns to action after losing his December 2019 clash against Chris Eubank Jr. when he suffered a shoulder injury that forced the fight to end in the second round. Korobov, who notched 300 wins as a decorated amateur, came into that fight off of a majority draw against Immanuwel Aleem, after serving notice to the middleweight division that he would be a threat when he lost a hard-fought decision to undefeated middleweight champion Jermall Charlo in December. Born in Orotukan, Russia, and now living in St. Petersburg, Fla, Korobov was a late replacement and gave Charlo a tougher fight than many experts expected. Korobov had been riding a four-fight win streak before the Charlo fight, following his first professional defeat against Andy Lee in a 2014 middleweight title fight.

“I am excited to be back in a PBC event on SHOWTIME December 12,” said Korobov. “I have a difficult opponent, but I expect to win and prove that I am back and even better prepared. I must win against Ellis in order to get Jermall Charlo back in the ring. Naturalmente, I believe I beat Charlo, but that is the past. Ellis is in my future, and I am coming to show I am still one of the best middleweights in the world.”

The 31-year-old Ellis (17-1-2, 11 KO) will look to build off of his last outing, which saw him edge fellow contender Immanuwel Aleem by majority decision in December 2019. For Ellis, that fight got him back in the win column after his first career defeat, a majority decision against DeAndre Ware in March 2019. The Lynn, Mass.-native is the older brother of welterweight Rashidi Ellis, and had an impressive amateur career including a 2010 National Golden Gloves championship capped off by a victory over Terrell Gausha.

“It’s time for me to show out on December 12,” said Ellis. “Korobov had his chance against the top middleweights, and now it’s my time to take advantage of this opportunity and use a win over him to reach that level. We’re working hard in San Diego sparring with Canelo Alvarez so that everything is perfect and I’m at my best on fight night.”

A native of Brooklyn, Hitchins (11-0, 5 KO) diventato professionista in 2017 after representing Haiti at the 2016 Olimpiadi. The 23-year-old has flashed impressive skills as he’s amassed an unbeaten record in the pro ranks, which is the product of an extensive amateur career. Hitchins scored four victories in 2019, before debuting in 2020 with a decision victory over Nicholas DeLomba. In his first two 10-round bouts as a professional, the southpaw has scored decisive unanimous decisions.

“I don’t overlook any opponent, but I believe I have a better and sharper skillset than Mendez,” said Hitchins. “I have all of the intangibles to become a world champion. That’s often mistaken as being cocky, but it’s really just me believing in myself more than anyone else. I will take this fight seriously like I do any other fight and continue to do what I do in order to get one step closer to that title shot. Being in camp with Floyd Mayweather and Gervonta Davis, I’ve learned a lot. I feel like I have to one-up the competition. They really pushed me to be a better fighter.”

A former super featherweight champion, Mendez (25-5-3, 12 KO) has a reputation for providing stiff challenges to the sport’s best and has proven to be a durable contender at 140-pounds. In 2019, Mendez fought to back-to-back draws against super lightweight contenders, first against Anthony Peterson in March and then against the unbeaten Juan Heraldez in May. Born in San Juan de La Maguana, Repubblica Dominicana, Mendez now fights out of Yonkers, N.Y.. and owns victories over Eddie Ramirez, Ivan Redkach and former titlist Miguel Vazquez. He has also gone toe-to-toe with former champions Rances Barthelemy and Robert Easter Jr.

“I’m facing a young prospect who’s hungry for success, but I’m hungrier today than I’ve ever been in my career and I have the experience to go along with it,” said Mendez. “I’m also extremely motivated for this fight, which isn’t good news for Hitchins. When fight time comes on December 12, you’ll witness an intelligent but more aggressive Argenis Mendez.”

Ecco cosa hanno detto giovedì i partecipanti alla conferenza stampa:

**GERVONTA DAVIS**

“Io e la mia squadra abbiamo deciso di spostare il nostro campo a Las Vegas in modo da poter avere un campo perfetto. Abbiamo trascorso 15 settimane di formazione, quindi sono ben preparato. Speriamo che Leo sia ben preparato e diamo ai fan quello che vogliono vedere.

"Sappiamo che Leo arriverà con molti pugni e io sarò esplosivo. Si tratta solo di dare un regalo ai fan. Sono grato di essere in questa posizione e sono pronto. Sabato sera sarà una notte memorabile.

“Non prendere niente da lui, Yuriorkis Gamboa stava solo cercando di sopravvivere contro di me. È più difficile ricevere pugni quando qualcuno non sta cercando di portare la lotta. So che Leo verrà a combattere. Penso che questa performance mi porterà al livello successivo.

"Non credo di doverlo mettere fuori combattimento, Devo solo andare là fuori ed essere fantastico. Dimentica tutto il resto, Devo solo andare là fuori e mostrare a tutti che sono il miglior ragazzo nel mondo della boxe. Questo è il mio obiettivo principale.

"Michael Jordan leggeva il giornale e faceva quello che dicevano che non poteva fare. È quello che sto facendo. Devo dimostrare di essere l'uomo più cattivo dello sport sabato sera.

"Leo verrà a combattere e si tratta solo di me che faccio un passo avanti e faccio quello che so fare meglio. Puoi vedere il potenziale di un combattente dall'esterno, ma devi vederlo effettivamente uscire in una lotta per crederci. Questa è la posizione in cui mi trovo. Tutti sanno che sono fantastico, Devo solo mostrarlo.

"Leo ha dimostrato di essere un combattente di alto livello, e sta andando contro un esplosivo, combattente potente come me. Penso che il vincitore dovrebbe essere tra i primi 10 dell'elenco libbra per libbra.

“Floyd Mayweather mi ha appena detto di rimanere concentrato nonostante tutto ciò che viene fornito con la settimana in pay-per-view. Devo prima portare a termine il lavoro, ma anche fare tutto ciò che è necessario per essere la prossima star del pay-per-view.

"Sono uno di quei combattenti che sa come concentrarsi quando ho qualcosa di grande davanti a me. Nessuno dei grandi combattenti prima di me si è congelato quando è il momento cruciale. Sono sempre stato in grado di concentrarmi quando sono in gioco grandi cose. È quello che ho fatto per questo campo di addestramento.

"Non sono davvero concentrato su nessuno che non sia Leo Santa Cruz. Non posso trascurare Leo. Per quanto riguarda qualsiasi altro combattente là fuori, semplicemente non mi interessano adesso. Lo proverò lungo la strada. Questo è un passo avanti per dimostrare il punto che voglio dimostrare ".

**LEO SANTA CRUZ**

"Questo è quello che ho sempre sognato. Quando ero un ragazzino, Volevo essere su questo palco. Sto vivendo quel sogno e sono molto felice ed emozionato. Non avrei mai pensato di riuscirci. Ho pensato che fosse come vincere alla lotteria. Ma grazie ai fan, Sono qui dove sono.

"Sto affrontando il miglior combattente della divisione. Se vuoi essere il migliore, devi battere il migliore. Devo andare contro il miglior combattente. Volevo sfidare me stesso. So che questa è una lotta pericolosa per me, ma voglio mettermi alla prova.

"Abbiamo entrambi sofferto e passato molto per arrivare qui. Nessuno di noi vuole tornare al punto di partenza. Quindi so che entrambi daremo una grande battaglia ai fan.

“Ho il cuore di un guerriero messicano. Mio padre mi ha detto di combattere una lotta intelligente, ma anche se lo dirà, ci sono buone probabilità che finisca per litigare con lui, a volte. Non importa cosa, troveremo un modo per batterlo.

"Non mi preoccupo davvero di essere il perdente. Ognuno ha la sua opinione. Il mio lavoro è andare là fuori e dimostrare che i dubbiosi si sbagliano. Mi sono allenato duramente per andare là fuori e farlo sabato.

"Gervonta è il miglior avversario che ho affrontato. È il combattente più forte che avrò affrontato. I combattimenti Abner Mares e Carl Frampton sono stati una grande esperienza per questo tipo di combattimento. Ho imparato molto da quei quattro incontri e da allora ho imparato molto di più.

“Per me significherebbe il mondo diventare un campione in cinque divisioni. Sarebbe un altro sogno che si avvera. Metterei il cognome di Santa Cruz proprio lì con i migliori.

"Gervonta è un ragazzo grande e so che verrà colpito duramente. Ma mi sono allenato con ragazzi più grandi in tutto il campo e sono stato in grado di prendere tutto ciò che mi veniva lanciato.

“I fan vogliono che tu vada a fare una guerra avanti e indietro. So che contro Gervonta devo combattere in modo intelligente. Cercherò solo di ascoltare il consiglio di mio padre il più possibile.

“Ho decisamente preso questa lotta per calmare i critici. La gente diceva che non volevo combattere contro i grandi nomi. Quindi ho seguito la sfida più grande della divisione e questo è Gervonta Davis.

“Lascio le opinioni ai fan e ai media. Il mio lavoro è ottenere la vittoria e dare ai fan una bella battaglia. Darò il massimo e lascerò tutto sul ring. "

**CALVIN FORD, Allenatore di Davis**

“Il campeggio è stato fantastico. È stato incredibile. Apprezzo molto il lavoro che ha svolto. Non vedo l'ora di vedere Tank sul ring. Non vedo l'ora di grandi prestazioni da entrambi i combattenti.

"'Tank' ha realizzato molte cose che gli avevo chiesto di fare, ma questo è l'apice di tutti loro qui. Entrambe queste famiglie hanno percorso la stessa linea con sentieri diversi. Entrambi hanno la possibilità di diventare grandi con questa vittoria.

"Ogni volta che guardo" Tank "adesso, Ricordo con un flash quegli anni da bambino in palestra con lui. Ora è l'uomo che ho sempre considerato come lui. È un padre di famiglia, uomo d'affari e un meraviglioso combattente. È incredibile vedere uno dei miei ragazzi tutti cresciuti. "

**JOSÉ SANTA CRUZ, Padre e allenatore di Santa Cruz**

“Abbiamo fatto un ottimo campo di addestramento e comprendiamo l'importanza di questa lotta. Leo è completamente preparato per questa lotta sabato e mi aspetto che abbia una grande prestazione.

"Sono molto grato di essere qui. Sono così felice di essere qui con mio figlio per una battaglia così grande ed essere in grado di guidarlo e aiutarlo a realizzare il suo sogno.

“Sappiamo che Davis è un combattente molto forte e compiuto. Ma Leo l'ha usato ogni giorno per motivarlo in palestra e sabato lo vedrai ".

**STEPHEN ESPINOZA, Presidente, Programmazione di eventi e sport, Showtime Networks Inc.**

"Uno dei motivi principali per cui amo la boxe è perché possiamo assistere ai giovani uomini, come "Tank" Davis e Leo Santa Cruz, svilupparsi e maturare proprio davanti ai nostri occhi. Questa è la nostra nona battaglia con "Tank" e 13^th con Leo. Li abbiamo visti maturare come combattenti e li abbiamo visti maturare come giovani uomini. Li abbiamo visti lottare, sudore, e trionfo. Li abbiamo visti diventare padri ".

"Ricordo la prima volta che ho incontrato" Tank ", era aprile 2016 a Washington, D.C. Era sulla undercard non televisiva di una lotta di Adrien Broner. Aveva già combattuto, è venuto durante la trasmissione e Floyd lo ha presentato. Ricordo le sue stesse parole, 'Questo è il mio giovane combattente. Attento a questo ragazzo. "E da allora lo guardiamo.

“Ricordo che la prima volta che ho incontrato Leo è stato a giugno 2012. Poco prima del suo primo incontro per il titolo mondiale. Era molto umile, silenzioso, parlato dolcemente, giovani quasi timidi. Molto diverso dal ragazzo che ho visto sul ring 48 ore dopo. Il punto è, siamo stati insieme per il viaggio di questi giovani uomini.

“Hanno combattuto le probabilità, letteralmente dalla nascita. Siamo stati abbastanza fortunati da trascorrere del tempo con loro durante *ALL ACCESS*. Hanno aperto i loro cuori, le loro menti, e se stessi per condividere le loro storie. La cosa che ho sentito di più è che la difficoltà di questo combattimento non è se le persone vogliono guardarlo o se lo compreranno, è per chi faranno il tifo. Perché se conosci le storie di questi giovani uomini, quello che hanno passato, e quello che hanno vissuto, è incredibile.

"La linea di fondo è che in questi due giovani uomini abbiamo due dei giovani combattenti più affermati e popolari nello sport oggi. Leo has been a champion almost consistently since 2012. ‘Tank’ had sellouts or near sellouts in Los Angeles, Baltimore and Atlanta, just last year. We have got these two accomplished young men fighting on Saturday night. You have to respect their journey, da dove vengono, and respect the teams that come around him.

“We do know what’s going to happen on Saturday night. Leo is going to come into the ring, throw a lot of punches and show an activity rate that’s unlike just about anybody else in the sport. ‘Tank’ is going to show the power, velocità, and the athleticism that has made him one of the fastest rising young stars that we’ve seen in sport in some time. Oltre a ciò, it will be up to them, just like it’s been up to them for their entire lives.”

***Su Davis VS. SANTA CRUZ***
Davis vs. Santa Cruz vedrà tre volte campione del mondo **Gervonta “Tank” Davis** e campione del mondo in quattro divisioni **Leo "The Earthquake" Santa Cruz** battaglia per i campionati WBA Super Featherweight e WBA Lightweight come headliner in uno SHOWTIME PPV sabato, Ottobre 31 (9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT) in un evento presentato dai Premier Boxing Champions dall'Alamodome di San Antonio, Texas.

ANNUNCIA I FILM DOCUMENTARI DI SHOWTIME® SPORTS “macho: La storia di Hector Camacho”

Ottobre 29, 2020 FNU47 Lascia un commento

Film Chronicles: l'improbabile ascesa e la morte prematura di uno dei campioni più colorati della boxe

Anteprima venerdì, Dicembre 4 a 9 PM ET / PT

**NEW YORK - ottobre 27, 2020** - La Showtime Sports Documentary Films ha annunciato oggi che andrà in onda *MACHO: LA STORIA DI HECTOR CAMACHO,* uno sguardo risoluto alla vita straordinaria, carriera leggendaria e omicidio irrisolto di uno dei più grandi showmen della boxe. In anteprima venerdì, Dicembre 4 a 9 p.m. ET / PT su Showtime, il documentario debutta appena due settimane dopo l'ottavo anniversario della sparatoria fatale di Camacho a Bayamon, Puerto Rico.

Per la prima volta su pellicola, *MACHO: LA STORIA DI HECTOR CAMACHO* offre un esame approfondito di un improbabile eroe dello sport. Il film celebra le sublimi abilità di boxe di Camacho e il carisma sfrenato che ha portato la Harlem spagnola e la cultura portoricana al centro del mondo dello sport. Attraverso interviste rare e rivelatrici con sua madre, Maria Matias, sorelle, moglie Amy e figlio Hector Jr., il documentario approfondisce anche la mente e lo spirito tormentato del leggendario combattente, la sua battaglia contro la dipendenza e il tumulto interiore che alla fine ha portato alla sua fine: un misterioso doppio omicidio sul ciglio della strada a novembre 2012.

"Il carisma di Macho Camacho, abilità di boxe e stile fiammeggiante lo hanno reso un'icona dello sport portoricano, e, per un periodo, la più grande star della boxe. Quando è salito sul ring, tutti sapevano che era 'Macho Time,'"Ha detto Stephen Espinoza, Presidente, Programmazione di eventi e sport, Showtime Networks Inc. "Questo film rivela i complessi alti e bassi della vita di Ettore: la gioia che ha portato così tanti, così come i demoni che ha combattuto in privato dietro le quinte. Nonostante tutto, tuttavia, Camacho ha portato la boxe a un livello di spettacolarità e stravaganza che era molto più avanti dei suoi tempi ".

Nato a Bayamon e cresciuto nei progetti di Spanish Harlem negli anni '70, Camacho è salito all'apice della boxe. La sua velocità dinamica, gioco di gambe e potenza combinati con la sua spettacolarità senza precedenti hanno contribuito a inaugurare una nuova era della boxe moderna e lo hanno reso membro di un club esclusivo di combattenti che ha trasceso lo sport. Il film racconta la storia dell'ascesa di Camacho da giovane travagliato a campione del mondo multidivisione. *MACHO: LA STORIA DI HECTOR CAMACHO* rivisita le indimenticabili esibizioni di Camacho contro leggende come Roberto Duran, Sugar Ray Leonard e Julio Cesar Chavez, e punti di svolta cruciali della carriera negli incontri con Ray "Boom Boom" Mancini e l'amato combattente del New England Vinny Pazienza. Attraverso tutti gli alti e bassi, le vittorie e le sconfitte, La storia della resilienza di Camacho è stimolante, anche se, alla fine, c'era un avversario che non avrebbe mai potuto battere: se stesso.

*MACHO: LA STORIA DI HECTOR CAMACHO* è diretto dal due volte Emmy^® Il vincitore del premio Eric Drath (*Assalto sul ring e niente più, 30 per 30)*, e prodotto da Drath e Danielle Naassana, entrambi di Live Star Entertainment. Il sedici volte vincitore dell'Emmy Award Aaron Cohen è stato scrittore e produttore consulente.
