LONDRES (Novembro. 4, 2016) – Undefeated IBF Heavyweight World Champion Anthony Joshua (17-0, 17 KOs) e challenger Eric Molina (25-3, 19 KOs) went face-to-face Friday at the kickoff press conference at Dorchester Hotel in London to formally announce their heavyweight world title fight on Sábado, Dezembro. 10, live on SHOWTIME from Manchester Arena in Manchester. Havia 17,000 tickets sold on the first day to purchase tickets.

Joshua, a British sensation and the 2012 Olympic Games heavyweight gold medalist, will be making the second defense of the title he won over Charles Martin último Abril 4. Joshua knocked out previously unbeaten Dominic Breazeale in the seventh round last Junho 25 in his initial defense.

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

Here’s what the heavyweights said:

ANTHONY JOSHUA:

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

ERIC MOLINA:

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

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

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

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

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

Taras Shelestyuk

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

JIMMY HERRERA:

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

Constantin Bejenaru:

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

 

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

 

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

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

STEVE BUJAJ:

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

VITOR JONES FREITAS:

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

MANUEL MENDEZ:

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

Chicago Welterweight Looks to Defeat Another Unbeaten Boxer When He Faces Taras Shelestyuk in Main Event Of ShoBox: A Nova Geração tripleheader, Esta sexta-feira, Novembro. 4, Ao vivo em SHOWTIME®

Deixe um comentário
NOVA IORQUE (Novembro. 1, 2016) – Jimmy “A Verdade” Herrera is accustomed to entering the ring as an underdog. The Chicago native is experienced in fighting favored prospects and contenders on the road and has had an inordinate success in these types of matchups, having defeated unbeaten prospects in four of his last nine fights.

So don’t expect Herrera (15-3-1, 8 KOs) to be in awe of his opponent, former Ukraine amateur standout and rising star, Taras Shelestyuk (14-0, 9 KOs) when they meet this Sexta-feira, Novembro. 4, in the 10-round welterweight main event on ShoBox: A Nova Geraçãoviver SHOWTIME® (10:30 p.m. E/PT, atrasado na Costa Oeste) em Omega Products Event Center em Coroa, Califa.

5 pés-10, 27-year-old Herrera has won three in a row and is 8-1-1 since dropping a close eight-round decision to Adrian Granados em fevereiro 2012. One of those victories was an upset seventh-round TKO over one-time highly ranked welterweight and world title challenger Microfone “Metralhadora” Jones on Aug. 23, 2014.

Herrera is promoted by Hitz Boxing and co-managed by Cameron Dunkin and Mike Cericola.

Here are Herrera’s responses to a recent Q&A:

What are your thoughts going into your ShoBox debut?
“Eu estou sempre pronto para um desafio, so I’m really excited about this opportunity. I’m definitely ready to compete against another undefeated fighter. I’m coming to show my skills to the world and prove I’m a boxer you have to pay attention to.

“At this point of my career, I want to make a move fast while I’m young. I don’t just want to be a guy with a nice record. I truly believe in my skills and that I can reach the highest level.

“I’ve been getting great help with sparring with the best of the best in Chicago. Sam Colonna, George Hernandez and all the Chicago boxing coaches have been great mentors to me and I am very thankful.”

What do you know about Shelestyuk?
“He was a great amateur fighter and he’s a lefty. That’s pretty much all I need to know. The only thing I can give him is that he has experience, so I’ve got to be careful of that. But it’s nothing new – I’ve seen fighters like that.”

Que tipo de luta que você espera?
“I expect him to be a boxer with movement. I think he’ll try to box me. I’ll be coming forward, being aggressive. Em seguida, we’ll see what his game plan is.”

Qual é a chave para ganhar?
“It all depends on the pressure I can apply, throwing the right punches at the right time, the accuracy of my punches. Each punch has to have a purpose. I’m definitely more of a pressure guy. I like Gennady Golovkin’s style, Julio Cesar Chavez is my idol. That is the kind of style I try to fight with.”

On fighting on ShoBox for the first time?
“I’m definitely excited because I know a lot of people will be watching. Eu não estou nervoso em tudo. The cameras, the bright lights, honestamente, I don’t care about. My focus is totally on this fight. This is the type of fight that can open a lot of doors for me.”

Is this your biggest fight and do you feel pressure?
“Sim, definitivamente, this is my biggest fight — just for all the doors a win would open for me, all the possibilities. Não há nenhuma pressão sobre mim. He’s the one representing his country with the weight on his shoulders. I’ve lost before, but that doesn’t make me an opponent.”

eles estão cometendo um erro brigar com você??
“I feel like they are making a mistake, but I also feel this is going to be a good test for him. I think Taras took the fight more for himself. But if he doesn’t know now about me, he’s going to find out.”

You boxed amateurs for one year and had 25 extremidades. Ele era um 2012 Olympic Bronze Medalist with a boatload of amateur accomplishments. How significant is the experience of fighting amateur?
“Pessoalmente, para mim, the amateurs are not that important at all. It’s all irrelevant once you go pro. I know some great amateur boxers who made it after turning pro, and some who didn’t. It’s a whole different ballgame. As a pro, I believe I’ve fought better guys than he has. I’ve been tested way more than he has. You can’t take away what he did as an amateur, but fighting with the smaller gloves, with no headgear, is totally different.”

Undefeated cruiserweights Constantin Bejenaru (11-0, 4 KOs, 0-1-1 no World Series of Boxing), de Catskill, N.I.. por meio da Moldávia, e Steve “Super-homem” Bujaj (16-0-1, 11 KOs), de Nova Iorque, will collide in a 10-rounder for the vacant WBC International WBC Continental Americas titles in the co-feature.

The nephew of popular former two-time lightweight world champion Acelino “Bumbum” Freitas, invicto leve Vitor Jones Freitas (12-0, 1 ND, 6 KOs), de Salvador, Bahia, Brasil, será a oposição de favorito dos fãs locais Manuel Mendez (12-1-2, 8 KOs), de Indio, Calif., in an eight-round bout in the opening match of the telecast.

Os bilhetes para o evento promovido pela Promoções bandeira, Thompson Boxe, Hitz Boxe e Star Joe DeGuardia de Boxe custam $100 (ringue), $70 (reservado) e $50 (admissão geral) e podem ser adquiridos pelo telefone (714) 935-0900.

Joshua vs. Molina and Whyte vs. Chisora land on huge December 10 mostra

AJ welcomes American to Manchester – Whyte and Chisora meet for Brit belt – Yafai in World title action – Quigg returns

 

Anthony Joshua MBE is set to defend his IBF World Heavyweight title against Eric Molina at the Manchester Arena on Dezembro 10, live on Sky Sports Box Office in the UK and on Showtime in the U.S.

 

Joshua puts his crown on the line for the second time and fights his third American in a row having destroyed Charles Martin inside two rounds to rip the title from the St. Louis man in April at The O2 in London and then stopping Dominic Breazeale in the seventh round at the same venue in June, extending his unbeaten run in the paid ranks to 17 vitórias, all inside the distance.

 

Molina becomes the latest man to attempt to derail the Olympic Gold medal hero, the Texan is looking to get his hands on the top prize in his second World title tilt after challenging Deontay Wilder for the WBC crown in June 2015. The 34-year-old enters the bout full of confidence after travelling to Poland and knocking out Tomasz Adamek in the tenth round of their clash for the IBF Inter-Continental strap in April.

 

“I am pleased that everything is now set for Dezembro 10 and I can concentrate on getting the business done in the ring,” said Joshua. “There has been plenty of talk about who I may face but all I’m doing is concentrating on finishing Molina in style and putting on a great show.

 

“Every fight is dangerous in this division and this is no exception. I saw Molina have a great fight with Wilder and he is now coming off a strong KO win against Adamek in Poland.

 

“I’m expecting this to be the toughest fight of my career so far and I will be ready for an all-out war.”

 

“There is no Heavyweight in the world that has bounced back like I have,” said Molina. “That’s the man that Joshua faces on Dezembro 10, and that man is a very dangerous one.

 

“He’ll fight the toughest Molina that anybody has ever seen, just like Adamek fought the toughest Molina.

 

“I’m confident. These type of fights don’t shake me up, I’m a very strong mental fighter. I know exactly what I’ve got to do to prepare myself in the amount of time. I know exactly what I’ve got to do, mentalmente, fisicamente, to go there and perform.

 

“When you walk out into the atmosphere, half the battle is the mental battle, and if you can stay in the moment mentally you have a shot in any fight.”

 

There’s a huge card in support of the main event as Dillian Whyte defends his British Heavyweight title against bitter London rival Dereck Chisora in an official eliminator for the WBC title. Whyte makes the second defence of his strap after seeing off fellow Brixton man Ian Lewison in Glasgow last month, while former World title challenger Chisora can get his hands on the Lord Lonsdale belt for the second time.

 

Scott Quigg returns to action after treatment on his broken jaw following his unification blockbuster with Carl Frampton, and the Bury star moves up to Featherweight as he looks to regain his status as a World champion.

 

Kal Yafai can become Birmingham’s first World champion but the unbeaten 27 year old faces a tough task to rip the WBA Super-Flyweight title against Luis Concepcion, the two-weight World champion that will enter the ring in his 11th World title outing.

 

Irish amateur sensation Katie Taylor boxes for the second time in the paid ranks after making her pro debut at The SSE Arena, Wembley on Novembro 26, Heavyweight wrecking ball ‘King Kong’ Luis Ortiz fights in Europe for the second time after clashing with Malik Scott in Monte-Carlo on Novembro 12 and Hosea Burton will defend his British Light-Heavyweight title against Frank Buglioni.

 

“The Heavyweight division has been turned on its head in the last few months and while many are standing still waiting, I’m delighted to get this huge card up and running in Manchester,"Disse o promotor Eddie Hearn.

 

“I have spoken to Eric Molina at length and I know this is going to be a big test for Anthony. We saw in the Wilder fight that he can punch and doesn’t give in and is coming off a strong knockout win against Adamek in his back yard in Poland. We have requested an exception from the IBF for this fight and although the plans are for a major unification in the spring this fight requires Anthony’s full focus.

 

“The card is one of the strongest we have produced, supported by a huge all-British Heavyweight grudge match between Dillian Whyte and Dereck Chisora which will be an official eliminator for the WBC World title.

 

“We are delighted to see the return of Scott Quigg who will now campaign at Featherweight and Birmingham’s Kal Yafai has a chance to make history in a brutal fight against World champion Luis Concepcion.

 

“One of the most exciting Heavyweights in world boxing Luis Ortiz will feature and Ireland’s Katie Taylor will continue to break the mould in front of a sold out 21,000 crowd. The re-scheduled Britsih Light-Heavyweight clash between Hosea Burton and Frank Buglioni is sure to produce fireworks and there will also be further names added in the following weeks.”

NOVA IORQUE (Outubro. 31, 2016) – Promising unbeaten 2012 Jogos Olímpicos Medalha de Bronze Taras "Real Deal" Shelestyuk (14-0, 9 KOs) will make his main event debut when he faces upset-minded Jimmy Herrera in the 10-round featured attraction of a ShoBox: A Nova Geração tripleheader this Fridae, Novembro. 4, viver ALTURA DE COMEÇAR em 10:30 p.m. E/PT (atrasado na Costa Oeste) a partir de produtos Omega International Event Center em Corona, Califa.

 

A 5-foot-10 up-and-coming rising star, Shelestyuk, de Los Angeles, está classificado n º. 9 pela WBO e Não. 13 no WBA. Shelestyuk, who is making his second ShoBox start, média 85 punches a round en route to winning his ShoBox debut with a 10-round division over Aslanbek Kozak em novembro. 6, 2015.

 

The dedicated, hard-working Shelestyuk, que é treinado por Eric Brown and spars a few days a week with former world champion Shane Mosley, at Wild Card West in Santa Monica, Calif., possesses solid skills, poder movimento e socos.

 

Shelestyuk was a member of a vaunted 2012 Ukrainian Olympic team that included featherweight gold medalist Vasyl Lomachenko and heavyweight gold medalist Oleksandr Usyk. The 30-year-old feels he’s still about a year away from competing against the best at 147 pounds and that he first must get by Herrera. But Mosley claims Shelestyuk reminds him of a bigger Lomachencko and believes he’s already ready for the top names in the welterweight division.

 

Herrera (15-3-1, 8 KOs), de Chicago, Ill., has defeated unbeaten prospects in four of last nine fights and is 8-1-1 geral desde julho 2012.

 

Shelestyuk, Brown and Mosley spoke to SHOWTIME after a recent workout. Here’s what they said:

 

Taras Shelestyuk:

What are your thoughts going into the fight?
“I’m very excited. It’s been six months since my last fight. It’s my first headline fight and hopefully not my last one.

 

“I’ve been putting in a lot of work in my training camp with my trainer Eric Brown, and with my physical conditioning coach. My opponent is a tough fighter. He’s had some good fights with guys like Mike Jones, Egidijus Kavaliauskas and a couple of other big guys. He likes to fight and I think it will be a good fight and a good matchup for our styles.”

 

You’re now a ranked fighter; are you happy with the pace of your progression?

“I’m happy with my progression but of course I want to fight bigger names in championship fights and all of that. I know it’s coming soon. I enjoy my way of training and developing my skills, but if you see your dream you do anything to reach it and don’t let anything get in your way.’’

 

What do you think of the welterweight division?

“It’s a very good division because there are a lot of fighters, but some don’t want to fight each other (very often). There are some very good championship fights to be made and hopefully I will be one of them.”

 

Why did you chose to move to Southern California?

“Well, [risos] mainly because if the great weather, but this is also a good area with a lot of good fighters and a lot of good trainers as well. When I first moved here my manager invited me out and showed me around and I got in the gym right away. I was training with Ruslan Provodnikov and got some sparring in with him before a fight that he had and next thing you know, two weeks later I had my pro debut and now three-and-a-half years later here I am.’’

 

Is there pressure on you when you fight?

“I wouldn’t say I feel pressure because everyone around me is supporting me, they believe in me and I believe in them. My team believes in me and I trust them. I just want to do what I do in the ring, melhor. I want to do better for me, for my family and for my friends.’’

 

Do you follow your Olympic teammates?

“I watch fights of the Ukrainian Olympic Team, and I enjoy when the other guys win. We support each other and we call each other. It is good for there to be more Ukraine fighters who are champions now. Próximo ano, I hope to be one of them.”

 

How did it feel going 10 rodadas para a primeira vez?

“Last year in November I had my first 10-round fight on ShoBox, I fought with a strong guy and he gave me a very good fight. I went the 10 rounds and I felt like I could still go two more. I am ready for 10, para 12, não importa. I feel much better, much more powerful. I have more speed than I had in my last fight, demais."

 

How did you end up training with Eric?

“I trained with Freddie Roach for about two and a half years when I met Eric at Wild Card West Gym. I started sparring with some of his guys there. After my fight with Rodriguez on ESPN in 2015 I asked Eric to train me and we started working. Now that I’ve fought two fights with him as my trainer, I feel my boxing skills are better, I feel more powerful and I enjoy training in his gym.

 

“All of the trainers help us and they give us advice. On the days I spar with Shane Mosley he stops and gives me some advice. I learn a lot from him, being the fighting legend that he is. I grew up watching him fight as a kid and respect what he’s able to teach me. Then the next time I try what he has taught me and it works.”

 

Boxing is in your blood; your dad and brother boxed. When you were younger, did you think you were going to become a fighter?

"Não, but my father pushed me in a lot of sports. I did gymnastics, soccer for five years, and played chess. I fought as a kid but it was always friendly. I always enjoyed the training aspect. To train for soccer sometimes my father and I would run barefoot in the snow and I enjoyed it. Assim, as a kid, when I first stepped into the boxing gym, it was just so much fun.’’

Your ShoBox fight falls on your father’s birthday; do you have a special present in mind for him?

“It makes me want to get the victory for him. On his day, he will be sitting and watching my fight so I want to get that victory for him, for my family and for the Ukraine.’’

 

ERIC BROWN, Shelestyuk’s trainer

What kind of camp has Taras had has had and what do you see happening na sexta-feira?

“I see a lot of progression in Taras. When we first started working together, one of the things was that Taras always had great boxing ability, but he wasn’t a great finisher. I don’t know if he was gun shy or what it was but he had a tendency of using his talent to get people in trouble but then he would stand back and let them get back in the fight. Assim, what we’ve been working on a lot more is getting him to become a better finisher and recognize when he has his man in trouble and how to seize the moment, without being reckless at the same time. He’s improving at a fast pace.

 

“A lot of guys from Ukraine seem to have similar tendencies because they have long amateur careers and they start picking up bad habits that we need to correct. Taras had a little bit of that in him but he seems to be making the adjustments very well. He’s an extremely hard worker and you often have to tell him to slow down, you never have to tell him to do more.”

 

Where do you see him in his career as a welterweight?

“It’s a great division. I’d say that Keith Thurman tops it without a doubt now but there are good fighters like Shawn Porter too. If Mayweather decided to come back, I think he would be all over this division again. Canelo is a good super welterweight, but he’s too busy worrying about catch-weights. Undoubtedly in another year, I think Taras will be right there with the best of them. He’s got a lot of talent, great versatility, great hand speed and foot speed and he’s a good puncher. Not a devastating knockout puncher but a great puncher nonetheless with both hands.’’

 

SHANE MOSLEY, O ex-Campeão do Mundo

How has it been working with Taras and how did you become involved in his training?

“I have been sparring with Taras and he’s looking really sharp. I’ve been sparring with him for about four or five months now pretty consistently because a lot of guys won’t spar with him. Guys are worried that he will make them look bad; he’s so technical and sharp that they don’t want to spar with him. Assim, I go in there with him a lot. It’s hard to get people to spar with him.’’

 

Where do you see him in the welterweight division?

“He’s on that championship path, that level, but I think once he gets there, he’ll get more sparring partners and will get even better. He really is a world champion, a world-class fighter. He reminds me of a bigger Lomachenko, sparring with him is just like that. I see him as a top welterweight champion. The way he throws his combinations, he’s a smart boxer who works out very hard. He’s at the gym every single day, whether he’s sparring or not, whether he has some training to do or not. He’ll even be here by himself just moving around and staying sharp. His work ethic is really, really strong.

 

How do you like working with Taras?

“I like Taras and I enjoy working with him. He’s extremely dedicated and that’s hard to find. I like Taras’ work ethic, his personality, how he takes to boxing. He loves this sport and he wants to be the best. He doesn’t like to lose, even in sparring. I’m impressed with him. When I sparred with him for the first time I was very impressed at his swing, his power, his ring accuracy, his IQ of boxing. I was impressed with how hard he worked and his willingness to learn.’’

 

Do you find it unusual for guys to be as dedicated as Taras at this point in their careers?

“It’s unusual in the sense that a lot of fighters want to learn from the top guys but it seems to me with Taras that it’s not fake. He truly does want to learn about boxing so that he can be the best. He wants to become a world champion and is working to become one of the best. If you put Taras in the ring with any big name today and I’d say he would take the victory. He has a sound mind. He has the mentality to be at the top. He’s serious about being the world champion, about being the top fighter. He’s serious about winning and he’s going to take it all the way to the end. If you put this guy against Thurman, I’d go with him. I think he beats Thurman right now.’’

I know that this fight will be a war. I’ve been working hard with Freddie Roach and I’m excited to show what I’ve learned and get my frustration of waiting off my chest. I am more motivated than ever to keep my title and prove who is the best in the division.”
“I’m excited to get back in the ring and win my fourth world title,” disse Mares. “Eu sou 100 percent healthy and ready to go. I’m looking forward to showing that to my fans and the entire audience on December 10. Los Angeles is my town.

“Camp for me started a month after I defeated Austin Trout,” Disse Charlo. “From that point on, I’ve been in the gym working and I got my vision corrected, so I’m feeling great. I’m looking forward to putting my clearer vision to the test and I’m so prepared and ready for this fight. This is everything I’ve ever wanted. It’s the best fighting the best. Julian brings an undefeated record to the table and I know he’s watched a lot of my past fights because we always knew we would fight one day. So who’s the best?

“I’m excited to get my first title shot, but more than anything I’m just focused on winning,” disse Williams. “Jermall Charlo is strong and fast, but I will be better than him on Dezembro 10. I’ve been waiting for this fight for the longest time and I know this will be a great night for the fans. I plan on giving them an exciting, explosive fight and most importantly a win.”
The action-packed doubleheader features two evenly matched showdowns as all four men, firmly in the top 10 in their division, will enter the ring believing that they will be the one leaving with a belt around their waist.

I also want to thank Stephen Espinoza and the SHOWTIME team along with the Galen Center staff for their help in making what will undoubtedly be an outstanding night of boxing.”
“These two world title fights exemplify what SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING has and will continue to deliver – true ‘pick-em’ fights between top-rated fighters in the prime of their career,,” dito Stephen Espinoza, Vice-Presidente Executivo e Gerente Geral, Showtime Sports. “Cuellar vs. Mares is arguably the toughest to predict of the five featherweight world championships we’ve presented this year. And in Charlo vs. Williams, our latest in a series of significant bouts at 154-pounds, we have a prime example of how great this sport can be. These are major fights between the top players in two of boxing’s deepest divisions.”
Uma estrela fast-levanta-se fora de Buenos Aires, Argentina, Cuellar isworking toward his 12th consecutive victory when he gets in the ring to defend his 126-pound title against Mares. His power in both hands has helped him deliver seven knockouts in his last 10 vitórias, including an eighth-round knockout of former world champion Vic Darchinyan em Junho 2015. The 29-year-old won his world title with a unanimous decision over Claudio Marrero na sua U.S.. estréia em agosto 2013. He went on to defend his title against Rico Ramos, Juan Manuel Lopez e Ruben Tamayo.
Nascido em Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico and fighting out of Huntington Beach, Calif., Mães won his first title in 2011 when he beat Joseph Agbeko to capture the bantamweight crown. He continued to rise in the pound-for-pound list with victories over Anselmo Moreno e Daniel Ponce De Leon to win world titles at super bantamweight and featherweight. The 30-year-old won three straight fights leading to a massive showdown with Leo Santa Cruz em agosto passado. Mares showed the same explosiveness that made him a multiple-division world champion in a thrilling “Luta do Ano” candidate which he lost by majority decision. The always-exciting Mares will enter the ring for the first time under the tutelage of renowned trainer Robert Garciaand strength coach Luis Garcia as he seeks to capture another world title.
Twin brother of fellow 154-pound world champion Jermell, Jermall Charlowill be making the third defense of the super welterweight crown he won last September with a dominant stoppage over Cornelius Bundrage. The 26-year-old is coming off of a career-best, hard-fought decision over crafty former world champion Austin Trout in May in Las Vegas. Training with Ronnie Shields em Houston, Charlo will look to silence Williams and stake his claim as the best in the division.
Uma das estrelas jovens mais conceituados no boxe, Williams, de Filadélfia, will be getting his first world title opportunity.
