They call me ‘Crunchtimeand that’s what I’m bringing to ShoBox on September 21. I’ll be ripping and running and I look forward to putting on a spectacular performance against Misael Lopez.”

Wilkins, who counts former four-division champion Roy Jones Jr. and former two-division champion Paulie Malignaggi as mentors, fought his way to the 2016 Olympic Trails in what was his last amateur tournament.

BROOKLYN (Септември 9, 2018) – Шон Портер became WBC Welterweight World Champion Saturday night as he earned a narrow unanimous decision victory over Дени Гарсија in a hotly contested fight live on SHOWTIME from Barclays Center, the home of BROOKLYN BOXING™, во настан презентиран од Премиер боксерскиот шампион.

 

 

 

All three judges scored the fight in favor of Porter (116-112, 115-113, 115-113) in an electrifying fight in front of 13,058 fans at the 30та professional boxing event at Barclays Center. (Video highlights here: https://s.sho.com/2MWXfRj)

 

 

 

 

Porter earned the belt that Keith Thurman, who previously defeated Porter and Garcia, was forced to vacate due to an injury.

 

 

 

In an anticipated title fight that was widely regarded as a 50-50 contest in boxing’s deepest division, Гарсија наспроти. Porter played out as advertised. The difference in total power punches landed throughout the 12-round battle was just five, with Garcia holding the narrow advantage.

 

 

 

In a matchup of accuracy vs. activity, Porter looked to outworked Garcia. He was relentless in his attack and threw 742 total punches and 544 моќ удари, слетување 25 проценти. Гарсија, од друга страна, was the more precise fighter, landing the higher percentage and more meaningful punches. He connected on 46 percent of the 304 power punches he threw. Due to the contrasting styles, the three judges were only able to all agree on four rounds.

 

 

 

I made a prediction and a hard one to live up to,” Саид Портер. “I said I wasn’t leaving New York without this belt and I’m not leaving New York without this belt. I knew he was going to be accurate. The game plan for me was to be accurate from the outside and show I could beat him without roughing him up on the ropes.

 

 

 

A disappointed Garcia clearly disagreed with the judges’ scorecards.

 

 

 

He was throwing a lot,” изјави Гарсија, who falls to 7-2 во светската титула тепачки. “I had my defense tight, so I wasn’t feeling his punches. I thought I landed the clearer shots and won this fight.

I have to sit back, relax and see what’s next for me.

 

 

 

Following the announcement of the decision, IBF welterweight champion and consensus top-five pound-for-pound fighter Ерол Спенс Џуниор. entered the ring to challenge the newly crowned WBC champion to what would be a blockbuster unification bout.

 

 

 

The same way that you called Danny out, I’m going to call you out”, said Spence. “I think I’m the best welterweight in the division. I’m ‘The Truthand I guarantee you I come home as unified champion. I definitely want that fight against Porter.

 

 

 

It was a star-studded night at Barclays as current and former world champions attended the fights, including Spence, Mikey Гарсија, Џарет Херд, Gervonta Дејвис, Адриен Broner, Андре Berto, Claressa Шилдс, Keith Thurman and Jermell and Jermall Charlo.

 

 

 

In the co-featured event of SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING, consensus top-10 welterweight Yordenis Ugas (23-3, 11 КО) out boxed Argentina’s Cesar Miguel Barrionuevo (34-4-2, 24 КО) on his way to a dominating unanimous decision victory (119-109, 120-108, 120-108). With the win in the WBC title eliminator, Ugas earns the WBC’s second mandatory position to fight Porter.

 

 

 

In a tactical performance, Ugas dictated the pace from the opening bell and looked comfortable throughout the 12 рунди. He was the more effective fighter from the outset, слетување 55 проценти од неговата моќ тупаници и 35 отсто од неговата вкупна удари. Barrionuevo, who was facing a big step-up in competition, was never able to trouble the former Olympic bronze medalist out of Cuba, despite throwing more punches.

 

 

 

Barrionuevo connected on just 26 проценти од неговата моќ тупаници и 19 отсто од неговата вкупна удари. Ugas was the far more accurate puncher connecting on 55 проценти од неговата моќ тупаници и 35 отсто од неговата вкупна удари, including a wild multi-punch assault on Barrionuevo in the eighth round.

 

 

 

We won today and I think I showed everybody my talent,” said Ugas, who improves to 8-0 на 147 фунти. “I’m happy with my performance. I showed enough, now I’m ready for a championship fight.

 

 

 

I want the winner of Danny Garcia vs. Шон Портер. I’m here to compete with the top-level guys in the sport.

 

 

 

I just didn’t have the right distance tonight,” said Barrionuevo, who was making his U.S. деби. “It was hard to catch him and attack. He countered well and attacked the body. I showed my heart but he was the better fighter tonight.

 

 

 

Во отворачот за телевизиска емисија, heavyweight slugger Адам Kownacki (18-0, 14 КО) remained undefeated by scoring a unanimous decision victory over former world champion Чарлс Мартин (25-2-1, 23 КО) in a sensational action-packed fight. Each of the judges scored the fight 96-94 in favor of the hometown favorite Kownacki, who was fighting in front of a boisterous contingent of Polish fans.

 

 

 

Both fighters were incredibly active, со блиски до 1400 total punches thrown throughout the 10 рунди. Kownacki and Martin, the former IBF heavyweight champion, each threw over 500 power punches and landed 37 percent of them.

 

 

 

Kownacki, who was fighting at Barclays Center for the seventh time in his pro career, started the fight on the front foot, backing up his opponent and wearing him out on his way to winning the early rounds. Martin began to claw his way back into the fight and caught a second win in the seventh round, landing several powerful left-handed blows to the head of Kownacki.

 

 

 

In a contender for the 2018 Круг на годината, на 10та and final round saw tremendous back-and-forth action with both fighters trading devastating exchanges while doing their best to stay on their feet. The two fighters combined to land 62 punches in the round, 57 of which were power punches.

 

 

 

I think I proved tonight that I’m a top 10 fighter,” Kownacki told SHOWTIME Sports® reporter Jim Gray. “I think I need one or two more fights before I go for a title fight. Имам одличен тим зад мене. Whatever they decide, that’s the route we are going to take.

 

 

 

I thought I won the decision a little wider than the cards, but Charles came to fight all night. He was in shape and coming forward and I had to dig deep.

 

 

 

Мартин, who was punished by a slow start, was gracious in defeat and gave credit to Kownacki.

 

 

 

I’m a late starter, but he was the better man tonight,” рече тој. “Looks are very deceiving, but it’s boxing. I put up a hell of a fight and went the 10 рунди. I just came up short.

 

 

 

In streaming coverage of live undercard fights on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING COUNTDOWN, Аманда Серано (35-1-1, 26 КО) became the first six-division world champion in women’s boxing history, joining Manny Pacquiao and Oscar De La Hoya as the only boxers, male or female, to reach the mark. The Brooklyn native defeated an aggressive and determined Yamila Esther Reynoso (11-5-3, 8 КО) to earn the vacant WBO Junior Welterweight World Championship via unanimous decision (all three judges scored the fight 99-91).

 

 

 

This means everything to me,” Саид Серано. “I work so hard and I hope this fight shows the fans that girls can fight and we can give it our all just like the men do. We deserve to have this platform and we deserve to be shown.

 

 

 

Also on the live stream, Brooklyn fan-favorite Крис Колбер (9-0, 3 КО) cruised to a unanimous decision win over Fatiou Fassinou (28-11-3, 15 КО) Мејведер и Промоции’ unbeaten prospect Ричардсон Hitchins (6-0, 3 КО) dominated Mexico’s Cesar Valenzuela (7-3, 2 КО) en route to a unanimous decision victory.

Here is what the press conference participants had to say Thursday from Dream Hotel Downtown in Manhattan:

 

ДАНИ GARCIA

 

 

 

I know I’m the better all-around fighter. I can just do more in the ring than Shawn Porter, период. I’m going to prove it on Saturday.

 

 

 

It means the world to me to get this belt back. This is a new chapter in my career. I’ve been in a lot of great fights. I’m a seasoned champion. This is a chance to regain something that was mine. This is one of the moments where I have to just go out there and prove myself.

 

 

 

My style is totally different than Keith Thurman, so I hope Shawn isn’t going off of that fight. I know I’m a better boxer than Shawn Porter and I’m going to make sure everyone else knows it too.

 

 

 

I absolutely want to unify with Errol Spence Jr. after I win. I want the biggest fights. This would be my fourth world title. All I’ve ever done is face everyone they put in front me and I’ve earned those huge fights.

 

 

 

This is nothing new to me. I’ve performed at this level for a long time. I’ve put in the hard work. Come Saturday night I’m going to get this victory because I’m the better fighter and a true champion.

 

 

 

I’m incredibly motivated, but I know that sometimes in life if you want something too much, you don’t get it. I’ve achieved a lot in this sport. This will just add more hardware to my collection.

 

 

 

I didn’t take any punishment in the Thurman fight. I could have come back two months later. I know that I could have started earlier and been more relentless, but I’m just going to take that into this fight and make the best of it.

 

Шон PORTER

 

 

 

The way I’m going to win this fight will change the conversation at welterweight. You’re going to have to wonder whether Errol Spence Jr. and Terrence Crawford have what it takes to beat me. I’m here to put on a great show, win this title and do it in spectacular fashion

 

 

 

I’m used to being the underdog. I’ve upset people before. I’m looking forward to doing what it takes to be that one to pull it off.

 

 

 

Styles make fights. One way or another, I’m ready to do whatever it takes to win this fight. There’s nothing I’ve ever wanted in my entire life more than this. I’m out here to take it.

 

 

 

Anything Danny is coming with, I’m taking it. It’s mine. Се што е потребно, I will not be stopped on Saturday night.

 

 

 

This means the world to me. This is my goal. I’m a goal-oriented person. I didn’t know when I was going to be fighting for this WBC title, I knew this was my time. This title has so much lineage and history to go along with it and I want to be a part of it.

 

 

 

I’m setting the tone now for what Danny should expect from fight night. He’s had this before, but this is my goal and this world title is mine to take.

 

 

 

Danny has to know that he’s getting in the ring with a bull. This isn’t going to be an easy 12 рунди. I’m going to make him earn every inch.

 

YORDENIS UGAS

 

 

 

It’s an honor to be a part of such a big card at Barclays Center. I’m going to do what I need to do. I’m going to put on a great performance, and the rest will take care of itself.

 

 

 

I think I’ve been the most consistent fighter at welterweight for the last two years. If I take care of business on Saturday, a world title shot will be next.

 

 

 

My opponent is going to try to make a big name for himself, but it’s my job to study him and make adjustments in the ring to get him out of there.

 

CESAR BARRIONUEVO

 

 

 

I’m very happy to be in this position. It’s going to be a great fight and it’s going to be my announcement to the U.S. I’m very ready to perform on that stage.

 

 

 

I know that my power and my relentlessness will make this an exciting fight for the fans. I hope that Ugas is not underestimating me, because I want him to be at his very best.

 

 

 

Fighting in Brooklyn is exciting. I could not be on a more exciting or perfect stage for this fight. Saturday will become the night that everyone remembers for my arrival.

 

Адам Kownacka

 

 

 

After Saturday night, everybody will know my name. I’m the next great heavyweight here in America. I want to make my splash on the national scene.

 

 

 

Last year against Artur Szpilka was an appetizer and this is my main course for really making myself known as a threat to everyone at heavyweight.

 

 

 

I can’t wait to hear the Polish fans and see the red and white. It’s going to be another awesome atmosphere and I’m definitely coming to send those fans home happy.

 

 

 

I feel like I’ve been getting better and better as I get more recognition. A world title fight is not that far in my future. I’m focused on beating Charles Martin first and letting my performance speak for itself.

 

Charles Martin

 

 

 

I’m going to go in there and put on a show. I’m going to get myself back to the position I want to be. That’s at the top of the heavyweight division.

 

 

 

I’m in phenomenal shape. I’ve been working hard for two and a half months. We’re back to where we need to be and you’ll see it on Saturday.

 

 

 

Training in the altitude in California is rough, but it’s great once you get here and feel great. That’s why you work so hard to get in shape, so you can be twice as good on fight night.

 

 

 

There are a lot of great heavyweight out there. I’m glad that people are giving it the acclaim they deserve. I think all of those guys are beatable and I look forward for my chance to prove it.

 

AMANDA SERRANO

 

 

 

I’m so thankful to have this great opportunity to make history again. I’m going to put on a tremendous show like I always do and give my hometown fans something to cheer for.

 

 

 

Come Saturday night, I’m super excited to grab this title in a sixth division. It puts me up there with two of the best fighters of all time in Oscar De La Hoya and Manny Pacquiao. I’ve won all of my titles by knockout and I have to keep that streak going on Saturday night.

 

 

 

Winning this fight is everything. I hope that I’m doing something great for young Latinas coming up in the sport. I’m going to continue to break down these barriers and one day cement my legacy in the Hall of Fame.

 

LOU DIBELLA, Претседателот на DiBella Забава

 

 

 

This is going to be a sensational show this Saturday night at Barclays Center. This is about as good as it gets. I’ve said that a number of times over recent years, and that’s a good thing. This is another show loaded with talent and has a sensational main event between two of the best fighters in the world, with styles that will mesh really well.

 

 

 

“Гарсија наспроти. Porter is a can’t miss fight. The winner will establish themselves as one of the best in the welterweight division and all of boxing. There will really be no loser, because there’s no way this isn’t an action-packed clash that lifts up both men in the eyes of fans.

 

 

 

There is really a terrific undercard on this show including amazing talent off of television. We always have a strong representation from Brooklyn and this show is no different with unbeaten rising prospects Chris Colbert, Richardson Hitchins and Chordale Booker. Повеќе, Brooklyn’s own Amanda Serrano looking to make history once again.

 

CHRIS DEBLASIO, SVP Sports Communications, Showtime Мрежи Inc.

 

 

 

We have established ourselves as an industry leader during an incredible time for boxing. We’ve delivered the largest slate of live boxing, with the best fighters in the most pivotal matchups. Our commitment will continue to be second to none.

 

 

 

“Во 2018, we have delivered 26 live boxing events and 22 светската титула борби, far more than anyone else. It’s not just the quantity, but the quality. We’ve had several of the best fights of 2018 and have presented three world title unifications and four women’s world title fights so far.

 

 

 

Saturday’s main event is a 50-50 matchup that everyone from Sugar Ray Leonard and Manny Pacquaio to Errol Spence Jr. and Keith Thurman have seen as an all-action fight where it’s hard to pick a winner. Danny and Shawn have been presented by our SHOWTIME team 20 пати. We’ve seen them come of age, achieve stardom and even navigate setbacks. It all leads up to this fight on Saturday night.

 

Брет YORMARK, CEO of BSE Global

 

 

 

It’s been six years since we’ve been in Brooklyn. We’ve hosted 260 краеви, 46 title fights and on September 8, our 30та big night of BROOKLYN BOXING™. From the start we wanted to make a commitment to the sport and we’ve done that.

 

 

 

Fights like Saturday help us standout from other venues in the marketplace. We have two of the best and brightest stars in the sport Saturday night and we can’t wait for them to enter the ring. We welcome back those who are returning to our ring such as Amanda Serrano, Adam Kownacki and Charles Martin, and we also welcome Ugas and Barrionuevo, for their first fights in Brooklyn.

 

 

 

This is truly an exciting time for the entire sport of boxing. We’re going to continue to reach the masses and provide unprecedented support for our boxing events. Tickets are moving fast and it should be another electric night. That’s what BROOKLYN BOXING™ is all about.

Here is what a group of current and former welterweight fighters had to say about the Garcia vs. Porter world title showdown:

 

Шугар Реј Леонард, Сала на Famer & Former Unified Welterweight World Champion

 

 

 

I feel the Danny Garcia vs. Shawn Porter fight has the makings of an exciting fight from what I’ve seen of both of these talented fighters. So here is my prediction based on what I feel both fighters bring into the ring

 

 

 

Garcia will win if he uses his jab to keep Porter at bay and off balance, but Porter gains a victory if he connects and hurts Garcia early and makes him abandon his boxing ability and fight like a sluggeras I did with my first fight vs Roberto Duran.

 

 

 

This is how I see this matchup which should be an exciting fight!”

 

ERROL SPENCE JR., Unbeaten IBF Welterweight World Champion

 

 

 

I definitely want to fight the winner of Danny Garcia vs. Шон Портер. That’s a close fight. I always picked against Danny Garcia in the past, and he always proved me wrong. Shawn Porter’s always a tough fight, because he’s going to come forward and give it his all. He’s basically trying to mug you. Но, за оваа борба, it’s hard to go against Danny Garcia. I pick Danny Garcia to win a split decision.

 

Кит Турман, ВБА боксер од полусредна категорија светски првак; Former Unified Champion

 

 

 

I honestly love this fight, and I consider it a tremendous battle and one of the best matchups of the year. За мене, having fought both of them, I do believe that each is capable of hurting the other and getting one another out of there.

 

 

 

I know most fans are going to lean toward Danny Garcia with his knockout power and the potential for that. Then there is Shawn, who’s got a decent punch, even though he focuses on his output more than his one-punch solid blow and has it in his arsenal to hurt Danny Garcia.

 

 

I wouldn’t bet on Shawn getting the knockout, but I would on Shawn getting the victory, simply because of his output. I think Danny’s only chance of winning is by knockout, but even as a gambling man, I can’t put my money on Danny getting it. I’m taking Shawn Porter by decision.”

 

MANNY PACQUIAO, Multiple-Time Welterweight World Champion

 

 

 

I’m going to give the edge to Danny Garcia. They’re both gritty fighters, but I think Garcia is a little more technical with a little more ring generalship. It should be a great fight, and there’s a possibility of me fighting the winner, but we’ll have to see what happens.

 

Mikey GARCIA, Four-Division World Champion

 

 

 

I think this is a very good matchup. Shawn Porter is the kind of athlete who is always bringing the fight to you with pressure and volume punching. They both come to fight and they can both take it and dish it out.

 

 

 

Danny Garcia can use his skills to box on the outside and work from a distance. I think Danny will be able to box a little more and win more of the tight rounds in a very close fight. I’m not sure if it will be a split-decision or a unanimous decision. I believe that Danny will use more of those tactics to win an exciting decision.

 

YORDENIS UGAS, Top Welterweight Contender

 

 

 

I have much respect for Shawn Porter, and I think it will be a great fight but, Danny Garcia has more technique and he’s also faced and beaten better opponents than Porter. I am leaning toward Danny Garcia to pull off the victory.

 

РОБЕРТ GUERRERO, Former Multiple Division World Champion

 

 

 

This will be a very entertaining fight for the fans. I can see Danny putting up a good fight, but Porter is going to make the fight rough, and Garcia doesn’t like those type of fights. I’m going with Porter to win by split decision.”

 

Виктор Ортиз, Former Welterweight World Champion

 

 

 

“Мислам дека тоа ќе биде брза борба. Shawn will be pushing forward, making it rough on Danny, and Danny will be trying to control the distance. I’m going with Danny, giving him the slight edge and saying he wins by a decision.”

 

Џамал ​​ЏЕЈМС, Полусредна категорија Кандидат

 

 

 

It’s a good one. Shawn is busier than Danny, more active and carries a lot of momentum when he fights. But that’s not always a good thing because Garcia has power with his timing, he might be able to catch Porter coming in. I’m thinking that Shawn Porter pulls it off. ”

 

BRANDON RIOS, Поранешниот светски шампион & Welterweight Title Challenger

 

 

 

That’s a really tough fight to predict. If Danny can counter really well and keep Shawn Porter off of him while Porter’s coming in, then I see Danny stopping him.

 

 

 

But if Shawn Porter is able to pressure Danny like he usually does, I don’t see Shawn Porter stopping Danny, or anything, but I see him winning by split-decision if he can be in his chest all night long. But if Porter gets nailed with one of those left hooks or a straight right hand, I say Porter goes down. I’m going to go with Danny because he knocked me out.”

 

BRYANT PERRELLA, Боксер од полусредна категорија Проспект

 

 

 

It could come down to how well Shawn Porter can take Danny Garcia’s punches in a fight that’s really hard to predict, and how well Danny can move, given that he’s not known for having fast feet similar to a guy like Keith Thurman.

 

 

 

But if Shawn can get close and smother Danny’s punches, he will make it a difficult fight. But Danny’s got really heavy hands and sits on his shots well, timing and counter-punching guys, so Porter could play into his hands.

 

 

 

Based off of clean, effective hard shots and giving him the edge in the close, competitive rounds, I’m leaning toward Danny Garcia. Shawn is tough as nails, so I see it going the distance, but just the slight edge to Danny.

 

SAMMY VASQUEZ JR., Полусредна категорија Кандидат

 

 

 

 

I’m going with Shawn Porter. Not by stoppage, but Shawn creates too much pressure and Danny Garcia doesn’t throw enough punches and doesn’t deal with pressure. You saw that when he fought Guerrero, who wasn’t looking too bad in that fight.

 

 

 

Danny can win by knockout if he catches Shawn with that hook, but Shawn’s a workhorse and he puts forth far more pressure than I think Danny’s ever seen in a fight. Shawn may not be susceptible to it if he doesn’t have the proper head movement, but I believe that he will.

WELTERWEIGHT WORLD CHAMPION KEITH THURMAN BREAKS DOWN CHAMPIONSHIP MATCHUP OF FORMER FOES DANNY GARCIA & Шон PORTER

This is one of the best matchups of the year. I try not to overthink it. It’s Porter by decision or Garcia only by KO. I lean toward Porter.” –
Кит Турман
Гарсија наспроти. Носете | Сабота, Септември 8 Во живо на Showtime®
From Barclays Center In Brooklyn, Presented By
Премиер бокс шампионите

ЊУЈОРК (Септември 4, 2018) – Welterweight World Champion Keith Thurman has an acute understanding of what it takes to beat Danny Garcia and Shawn Porter. Непобедените, former unified champion edged both fighters in blockbuster matchups and will be watching intently from ringside at Barclays Center as the two face off for the WBC Welterweight World Championship Thurman vacated due to injury.

 

 

 

The reigning WBA 147-pound champion, Thurman defeated Porter via unanimous decision in a 2016 Борбата на кандидатот Година (FULL FIGHT VIDEO: https://s.sho.com/2MAUoNH), and narrowly beat Garcia via majority decision in 2017 (FULL FIGHT VIDEO: https://s.sho.com/2MZB6kA). The matchups were so closely contested that both fights would have been ruled draws if a single round were scored differently.

 

 

 

Thurman spoke with SHOWTIME Sports® Hall of Fame analyst Steve Farhood to break down what he callsone of the best matchups of the yearin seven key categories – удирање моќ, physical strength, defense, брзина, boxing ability, ring IQ and chin.

 

 

 

See below for Thurman’s analysis of the showdown of consensus top-5 welterweights, which airs this Saturday live on SHOWTIME.

 

PUNCHING POWER: Edge GARCIA: “Danny can punch with both hands. He does load up, so you can’t be right there in front of him.

 

PHYSICAL STRENGTH: Edge PORTER: “Shawn is clearly the more physical fighter.

 

DEFENSE: Edge GARCIA: “Porter’s defense is his offense. Со Danny, I’ve never seen anyone so willing to just stare at me without throwing a punch. He’s committed to being second, a pure counterpuncher.

 

SPEED: Edge PORTER: “Shawn is faster and a little more athletic. He’ll triple on the jab to get inside and use stutter-steps. Danny’s real relaxed, but that doesn’t necessarily come through in his hand speed.

 

BOXING ABILITY: Edge GARCIA: “Neither one is known for boxing. Danny’s a counterpuncher, and Shawn outworks you. Danny has nice boxing movement when he wants to be evasive. He’s underrated when on his back foot. We saw that against (Лукас) Matthysse и (Брендон) Rios.

 

RING IQ: EVEN:Hard to judge. These are two world champions with tremendous amateur pedigrees.

 

CHIN: EVEN: “In my fights, Porter took more big punches than Garcia did. I had to hit hard to keep Porter off me. They both have enough power to hurt each other.

 

Предвидување:This is one of the best matchups of the year. I try not to overthink it. It’s Porter by decision or Garcia only by KO. I lean toward PORTER.
