ΝΕΑ ΥΟΡΚΗ (Ιούνιος 30, 2016) – Undefeated heavyweight Jarrell Miller claims he’s America’s top heavyweight prospect. “Big Baby” will get a chance to back up his boast when he faces his toughest test to date in veteran Fred Cat στο κύριο γεγονός της ShoBox: Η νέα γενιά επί Παρασκευή, Αύγουστος. 19.
The confident and hard-hitting Miller (17-0-1, 15 KOs) and the durable and vastly experienced Kassi (18-5-1, 10 KOs) will headline a tripleheader live on SHOWTIME στο 10 μ.μ. ΚΑΙ/PT from the outdoor soccer venue Rhinos Stadium in Rochester, Ν.Υ..
Two undefeated young bantamweight prospects will square off in theShoBox co-feature as world-ranked Νικολάι Potapov (14-0-1, 6 KOs) και Antonio Nieves (16-0-1, 8 KOs) meet in a 10-round bantamweight bout.
Στην περίοδο έναρξης της τηλεοπτικής εκπομπής, undefeated welterweight knockout artist Μπακτιγιάρ Eyubov (10-0, 10 KOs) will face battle-tested veteran Καρίμ Μέιφιλντ (19-3-1, 11 KOs) σε έναν αγώνα 10 γύρων.
Tickets for the event presented by Salita Promotions go on sale αυτή την Παρασκευή στο Μεσημέρι ΕΤ και είναι διαθέσιμα στο http://www.rhinossoccer.com/και http://www.etix.com
“This is an amazing opportunity. I’m in the main event going against a tough opponent, and he’s definitely game to fight,” Miller said. “I’m ready to put his lights out like I do everybody else. I know he’s durable and a little older than me. He’s a tough guy and he can take a beating. Μέχρι τώρα, he’s only been stopped once. I’ll be the second.
“I’m going back to basics in this camp. I’m an advanced fighter, but there are a couple of things I’ve wanted to work on. It’s easy for heavyweights to rely on power and forget about technique. You see what happened to Dominic Breazeale against Anthony Joshua? His power didn’t mean jack because there was no technique behind it. I want to be the kind of fighter who puts his technique first and power last.”
“I approach Jarrell like all young fighters,” Kassi said. “I’m a seasoned pro that has fought top-tier opponents. Jarrell will have to bring his ‘A game’ against me. He’s got size and power, but it’s nothing I haven’t seen. I’m tired of getting robbed by judges like in El Paso (against Chris Arreola), and in Alabama (against Dominic Breazeale). That should have been me fighting Anthony Joshua in The O2. Against (Hughie) Μανία, the cut saved him. Another round or two and he would have been done. Then we heard what we always hear, ‘oh, Fury had a bad night, so did Breazeale, so did Arreola.’ They all seem to have ‘bad’ nights when I’m in the other corner. I’m hoping to actually get some credit when Miller has a ‘bad’ night too. I’m a heavyweight boxer, that’s boxer underlined. I move my feet, I use angles, I hit and don’t get hit. That’s boxing and it’s my art. Boxing fans are going to have a great time watching me dismantle a giant.”
“I am very happy to be back on SHOWTIME fighting the best opponent of my career,” Eyubov said. “I know this will be my hardest fight to date and that’s what motivates me. I am grateful that I am getting an opportunity to prove myself and I want to show that I am ready for the best fighters in the world. I am ready for the boxing world to know my name. Αύγουστος 19, Καρίμ Μέιφιλντ, here I come.”
“This will be a special event at Rochester Rhinos soccer stadium. We have America’s brightest heavyweight contender in Jarrell ‘Big Baby’ Miller and a knockout sensation out of Brooklyn by way of Kazakhstan in Bakhtiyar ‘Bakha’ Eyubov,” promoter Dmitriy Salita είπε. “This show has all the ingredients to be one of the most talked about boxing events of the summer, and we think Miller has all the skills and charisma to break through in the heavyweight division. I am grateful to SHOWTIME and Rhinos Stadium that boxing fans will witness talented fighters in their toughest fights to date. I look forward to an explosive night of boxing.”
“Wendy and I are so excited to be hosting both SHOWTIME and the fighting debut of Jarrell ‘Big Baby’ Miller at Rhinos Stadium,"Είπε Wendy και David Dworkin, owners of the Rochester Rhinos soccer stadium. "Αύγουστος 19 will be a great opportunity to showcase our stadium and the City of Rochester to a nationwide audience.”
The menacing Miller, a 6-foot-4 Brooklyn, Ν.Υ.. ντόπιος, is a consensus top 15 heavyweight – he’s ranked No. 8 στην WBO, Μη. 9 in the WBA and No. 14 στην IBF. The 27-year-old former professional kickboxer has knocked out six consecutive opponents as he’s risen through the rankings as one of America’s top heavyweight hopes. Prior to Miller’s knockout of Nick Guivas επί Μάιος 27, his previous two fights were onShoBox – a third round destruction of Akhror Muralimov last October and a knockout of Donovan Dennis in January in which he was pushed to the seventh round for the first time.
Kassi has been in with some of the most recognizable names in the heavyweight division, συμπεριλαμβανομένου Αμίρ Μανσούρ, Dominic Breazeale και Hughie Fury. The 36-year-old fought to a disputed majority draw with three-time world title challenger Chris Arreola last July on PBC on CBS in which most ringside observers, συμπεριλαμβανομένου ShoBox αναλυτής Steve Farhood, had Kassi winning by a wide margin. The New Orleans resident has been stopped just once – in 2014 by Mansour – and stands as an excellent barometer for Miller’s progression as a legitimate contender.
The fast-rising Potapov, of Potolsk, Ρωσία, is ranked in the top 15 in three of the four sanctioning bodies (Μη. 7 WBO, Μη. 13 IBF, Μη. 14 WBA) after just 15 επαγγελματικούς αγώνες. A former amateur standout with over 200 αγώνες, the 25-year-old Potapov has already gone at least 10 rounds seven times since turning professional in 2010. The only blemish on his record is a draw with undefeated prospect Stephon Νέοι στην τελευταία πάλη του για Απρίλιος 15 επί ShoBox.
Coincidently, the only blemish on Antonio Nieves’ record is a 2015 draw with Stephon Young. The 29-year-old is coming off his first 10-round performance, a unanimous decision over then once-beaten Όσκαρ Mojica τον Ιούνιο 18. The Cleveland, Ohio native will face his toughest opponent to date in fellow unbeaten Potapov in the matchup of unbeaten bantamweights.
The Brooklyn-based Eyubov has passed every test he’s faced, and knocked out all of his opponents in the process. The 29-year-old native of Kazakhstan is coming off an impressive third-round stoppage of veteran Jared Robinson last January on ShoBox. Eyubov will step up his level of opposition when he faces Karim Mayfield, a 35-year-old veteran who owns wins over Mauricio Herrera και Steve Forbes and has never been stopped in 23 αγώνες.
Barry Tompkins θα καλέσει το ShoBox δράση από το ringside με Steve Farhood και ο πρώην παγκόσμιος πρωταθλητής Raul Marquez θα χρησιμεύσει ως ειδικός αναλυτής. Ο εκτελεστικός παραγωγός είναι Gordon Hall με Πλούσια Gaughan παραγωγή και Rick Phillips σκηνοθεσία.

BROOKLYN (Ιούνιος 28, 2016)—Undefeated former two-division world champion Mikey Garcia will return to the ring after a two-and-a-half-year layoff on Σάββατο, Ιούλιος 30 on an exciting night of boxing on SHOWTIME και SHOWTIME EXTREME that is one of the strongest cards ever assembled at Barclays Κέντρο σε Μπρούκλιν.
Γκαρσία, who won world titles at featherweight and super featherweight, will fight former world champion Elio Rojas in a 10-round bout in the SHOWTIME ΠΡΩΤΑΘΛΗΜΑ ΠΥΓΜΑΧΙΑΣ co-feature of the Λέων Σάντα Κρουζ vs. Ο Carl Frampton event presented by Premier Boxing Champions (PBC).
In the opening bout of the SHOWTIME ΠΡΩΤΑΘΛΗΜΑ ΠΥΓΜΑΧΙΑΣ telecast that begins at 9 μ.μ. ΚΑΙ/6 μ.μ. PT, once-beaten 154-pound contenders Tony Harrison και Σεργκέι Rabchenko will meet in a 12-round IBF Junior Middleweight Eliminator. Harrison and Rabchenko will square off for the No. 2 mandatory challenger spot to IBF titlist Jermall Charlo, who successfully defended his crown on Μάιος 21, and undefeated contender Julian Ουίλιαμς, who earned the No. 1 mandatory position on Μάρτιος 5, both on SHOWTIME. Harrison vs. Rabchenko is the sixth matchup in 2016 between top 154-pound fighters, a lineup showcasing three world title fights and three title elimination matches in one of boxing’s deepest divisions.
The combined record of the six fighters on the SHOWTIME telecast is an impressive 162-4-1 με 113 knockouts.
An all-Brooklyn showdown between welterweight technicians Paulie “Magic Man” Malignaggi και Gabriel “Tito” Bracero highlights the undercard action on SHOWTIME BOXING on SHOWTIME EXTREME. The 10-round bout is a matchup between a former two-division world champion, Malignaggi, and a fellow Brooklyn native, Bracero, coming off the biggest win of his career when he knocked out Danny O'Connor τον περασμένο Οκτώβριο.
A 10-round clash between once-beaten lightweight John Redkach and streaking Tevin Αγρότης, νικητής 14 ευθεία, will open the SHOWTIME EXTREME telecast live at 7 μ.μ. ΚΑΙ/PT.
Ο Ιούλιος 30 event at Barclays Center comes on the heels of last Saturday’s potential Fight of the Year thriller between Keith Θέρμαν και Shawn Porter, a back-and-forth slugfest that generated the top grossing live gate and second-highest attended boxing event in venue history.
“This is the strongest card from top to bottom that I have promoted at Barclays Center,” said DiBella Entertainment President Lou DiBella. “Every single fight is significant and competitive, and this is a great follow up from the tremendous success that boxing had with Thurman-Porter this past weekend.”
“This will be our 19ου πυγμαχία εκδήλωση, but from top to bottom it’s arguably our best card yet,” said Brooklyn Sports & Entertainment CEO Brett Yormark. “We are excited to welcome undefeated Santa Cruz and Frampton to Brooklyn for the first time, a fight that could rival Barclays Center’s epic Thurman-Porter bout for Fight of the Year. It’s also a pleasure to welcome Brooklyn’s own Paulie Malignaggi back to Barclays Center for the fifth time and to host the return of Mikey Garcia after a two and a half year hiatus. Ιούλιος 30 is going to be another big night for BROOKLYN BOXING.”
“We are excited to be part of Mikey Garcia’s return to the ring. Before the layoff, he was a two-division world champion and considered one of the top boxers in the world. We know he is determined to reclaim his place among the elite,"Είπε Stephen Εσπινόζα, Εκτελεστικός Αντιπρόεδρος & Γενικός Διευθυντής, Αθλητισμός SHOWTIME. “SHOWTIME has distinguished itself by delivering the most compelling matchups and the most important events in boxing all year long. There is no other network as committed to the sport, και ο Ιούλιος 30 συμβάν, from top-to-bottom, is a prime example.”
MIKEY GARCIA vs. ELIO ROJAS
“I expect to pick up right where I left off,” Garcia told SHOWTIME Sports reporter Jim Gray last Saturday on CBS. “I was a world champion, I was undefeated, and I still am. I didn’t leave because I was injured. I think I’ll come back even better. I’m hungrier now than I was before.
“I just have to get one fight in. This first fight with Elio (Rojas) will be somewhere between 135 και 140 λίρες, but I want to fight at 135 and win a title there. I want to win a title there and keep going after champion after champion. Now that all that (uncertainty) is behind me I look forward to the next stage of my career. This next stage of my career will be what people remember me for.”
“Mikey Garcia is a great fighter,” Rojas said. “I want to thank him for this opportunity. We are both former WBC World Champions and I expect a great fight. Ωστόσο, all of the talk surrounding this fight has been about Mikey’s comeback and his future plans. I am no tune-up. This is also about me coming back and fighting again. He may be looking past me, but I am fully focused on him and securing the victory. I will do whatever I have to do to win, so I can move on and regain my world championship.”
Γκαρσία (34-0, 28 KOs), Βεντούρα, Καλιφόρνια., is 28-years-old and in the prime of his career. Once considered one of the top young boxers pound-for-pound in the world, he will make his first ring appearance since he retained the WBO 130-pound title with a 12-round unanimous decision overJuan Carlos Burgos στις Ιαν. 25, 2014. Γκαρσία, the brother of renowned trainer Robert Garcia, has been victorious by knockout in 10 τελευταία του 12 fights and holds impressive victories overRoman “Rocky” Martinez, Juan Manuel Lopez, Ορλάντο Salido και Bernabe Concepcion.
Rojas (24-2, 14 KOs), of San Francisco de Macoris, Δομινικανή Δημοκρατία, won the WBC featherweight world championship in 2009 with a 12-round unanimous decision over defending titleholder Takahiro Ao Ιαπωνία. The 33-year-old successfully defended the title against Guty Espadas Jr. σε 2010, before losing the belt via unanimous decision to Jhonny Gonzalez τον Απρίλιο 2012. Since the loss to Gonzalez, Rojas moved up to lightweight, όπου νίκησε Robert Osiobe τον Αύγουστο 2014.
TONY HARRISON vs. SERGEY RABCHENKO:
“I’m thrilled to return to the ring on this big stage for my first fight in Brooklyn, and I’m ready to put on a show,” said Harrison. “Fighting for a world title is my dream and I know that I have a challenge in front of me. I’m working hard in camp to get another knockout and to make my mark on the division.”
“This is the start of realizing my dream,” Rabchenko said. “America is the Mecca of boxing so it is a huge privilege for me to be asked to fight there. American fans like to see knockouts and I like to knock people out so I think they will like what they see. I think I can build a fan base there. I am hungrier than ever. I have not seen much of Harrison, but I am ready for anyone. People say he is a very good fighter with good power. I’m not worried. I have good power as well and I think I will have too much for him.”
Σε απόσταση μόλις 25 χρονών, Harrison (23-1, 19 KOs) has showed tremendous promise. He manufactured a 10-fight knockout streak from 2013 να 2015 and proved he could recover from a loss when he dominated Cecil McCalla για 10 rounds in October 2015 και σταμάτησε Fernando Πολεμιστής in impressive fashion in March.
Fighting out of Belaraus, Rabchenko (27-1, 20 KOs) is looking to put himself squarely into world title contention when he makes his U.S. κάνει το ντεμπούτο την Ιούλιος 30. The 30-year-old is coming off stoppage victories over Walter Calvo το Μάιο 2015 and Miguel Aguilar in February.
SHOWTIME EXTREME:
PAULIE MALIGNAGGI vs. GABRIEL Bracero:
“I feel truly blessed to have yet another opportunity to fight in Brooklyn,” Malignaggi said. “I have known Tito a long time and I know he always comes to fight. We will give the Brooklyn fans a great appetizer before the terrific main event later that night in Barclays Center.”
“I’m looking to make a statement by winning this fight,” said Bracero. “Paulie and I have been friends since the amateurs and I’m thankful to have this opportunity, but he’s had his run. Now it’s time for me to have mine. This fight is going to change my life.”
Ο πρώην παγκόσμιος πρωταθλητής στο 140 και 147-λιβρών, the 35-year-old Malignaggi (35-7, 7 KOs) will return to the ring to fight at Barclays Center for the fifth time. He has faced a slew of big names throughout his career and has been victorious over the likes of Zab Judah, Vyacheslav Senchenko και Pablo Cesar Cano. Γεννήθηκε και μεγάλωσε στη γειτονιά Bensonhurst του Μπρούκλιν, “The Magic Man” was victorious twice fighting in his birth country of Italy last year after unsuccessfully challenging unbeaten Ντάνι Γκαρσία τον Αύγουστο.
Another Brooklyn-native, Bracero (24-2, 5 KOs) comes off of a sensational one-punch knockout of rival Danny O'Connor in their rematch last October. The 35-year-old owns victories over Ντμίτρι Salita και Πάβελ Miranda in addition to his first triumph over the previously unbeaten O’Connor in 2011.
IVAN REDKACH vs. TEVIN FARMER:
“I am extremely happy to be back in the ring on a big show in New York,” Redkach said. “There are so many Ukrainian fans in New York and I am thrilled to have their support and will put on a great show for them. I want to thank Leo Santa Cruz and his team for having me in their camp as we both prepare ourselves to put on tremendous performances come Ιούλιος 30."
“I couldn’t be more excited about this fight,” Farmer said. “This is my Barclays Center debut and it is going to be a spectacular performance. I have called out anyone and everyone in the 130- pound division to no avail, so now I’m moving up to 135 to take on Redkach, one of the most feared punchers in the division. Redkach is an aggressive guy and I know he is coming to fight, but there is no way I leave that ring without my hand being raised. This is a fight where I can and I will make a major statement. I’m willing to fight whoever they put in front of me to inch closer to a world title opportunity and Ιούλιος 30 is another step in that direction. I tip my hat off to Redkach for giving me this fight, but this is my time to shine.”
Γεννήθηκε στην Ουκρανία, αλλά παλεύει έξω από το Λος Άντζελες, REDK (19-1-1, 15 KOs) began boxing at the age of six and has put together an impressive career since turning pro in 2009. The 30-year-old owns victories over Tony Luis, Σεργκέι Gulyakevich και Yakubu Amidu. Πιο πρόσφατα, Redkach knocked out Erick Daniel Martinez τον Οκτώβριο 2015 and fought to a draw with Luis Cruz τον Απρίλιο.
Representing the fighting city of Philadelphia, Αγρότης (24-1-1, 5 KOs) έχει νικήσει 14 bouts in a row since losing to unbeaten world champion Χοσέ Pedraza σε 2012. The 25-year-old has come on strong in recent years, upsetting previously unbeaten fighters such as Emmanuel Gonzalez, Angel Luna και Camilo Perez. Farmer dominated veteran Γαμαλιήλ Diaz in March and will make his Barclays Center debut on Ιούλιος 30.

BROOKLYN (Ιούνιος 26, 2016) – Prizefighting returned to CBS Σάββατο with a Fight of the Year candidate as undefeated welterweight world champion Keith Θέρμαν edged former world champion Shawn Porter in a close but unanimous decision scored 115-113 by all three ringside judges.
Ο 12,718 fans in attendance at Barclays Center in Brooklyn and the viewers across the U.S. watching the first primetime boxing event on CBS since Muhammed Ali-Leon Spinks in 1978 were treated to a slugfest between two of the brightest stars in boxing’s glamour division.
Θέρμαν (27-0, 22 KOs) and Porter (26-2-1, 16 KOs) combined to throw over 1200 punches in the SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING on CBS event, presented by Premier Boxing Champions. The marquee showdown was a story of accuracy vs. activity, as Thurman landed 50 τοις εκατό των πυροβολισμών δύναμης του, σε σύγκριση με 38 percent for Porter, και 44 percent of his total punches compared to just 36 percent for the challenger. While Thurman landed at a higher percentage, Porter was the busier fighter, throwing over 100 more punches across 12 γύρους.
“One Time” and “Showtime” delivered as advertised, with the powerful sharpshooter buckling Porter multiple times, while the swarming and smothering Porter barreled forward to bully Thurman into the ropes. And while there were no knockdowns, the back-and-forth blockbuster never lacked action and culminated in a standing ovation in the second-highest attended boxing event in Barclays Center history.
“I want to thank Shawn Porter for a tremendous fight. He’s a great warrior,” said Thurman. “Defense is the key to victory. He smothers his punches a lot and makes it difficult for the judges to score. I was able to rock him with clear, effective blows and I believe that was the difference today.
“I would give him a rematch. It was great fight. He was a great opponent. Everyone was saying would he be my toughest opponent to date. I wasn’t able to drop him but I did buckle him a few times.”
The former world champion Porter, a perennial underdog but consummate gentleman, didn’t complain about being on the losing end of his second close decision in a title bout.
“We worked hard, Keith is a great champion,” Porter said. “My dad says to keep your head up. Νομίζω ότι κέρδισε τον αγώνα, but I’m satisfied because the competitor came out απόψε.
“We need that rematch. I know the fans want that rematch. If he gives me another chance, I’m going to work hard in the ring and leave with his title.”
The opening bout of the CBS telecast featured a matchup of undefeated super welterweights as Jarrett Hurd graduated from prospect to legitimate contender in the stacked 154-pound class with a dominating 10ου round TKO over Oscar Molina.
Hurd (18-0, 12 KOs) got to work early, flooring Molina for the first time in his career in the opening round with a powerful counter right uppercut. The bigger and taller Hurd was the more active fighter from the outset, dismantling the previously unbeaten Mexican Olympian with a supremely effective inside game. Hurd threw nearly 750 punches over 10 γύρους, σε σύγκριση με μόλις 376 for Molina, σύνδεση για 220 power shots at a nearly 40 percent clip.
Hurd put a stamp on his performance in the final round, closing the show by out landing Molina 33-7 in the final round. With Molina taking a brutal beating and seemingly defenseless in the final minute of the final round, Ricky Gonzalez stepped in to halt the contest at 2:02.
“This is definitely a big win for my career,” Hurd said. “He was taking a lot of shots, but he knew how to survive. It was a big uppercut that knocked him down in round one. People know from my last fight that I have a great right uppercut. He was hurt a couple of times. I don’t think it was a bad stoppage. Molina is a very tough guy who just kept coming through.
“This fight here puts me up with the top contenders in the division. I felt like I could have gone three or four more rounds. I was getting stronger as the fight went on. We’re going right back to the gym so we can get in there again.”
Molina (13-1-1, 10 KOs) protested, but barring a stunning knockout he was just seconds away from suffering the first loss of his career via a unanimous decision.
“I felt like Hurd was throwing a lot of punches in the tenth round but they weren’t really hurting me,” Molina said. “He was staying busy but he was never really hurting me.
“I went low and I had my head down and he caught me with that uppercut in the first round. He got me with a shot I wasn’t expecting but it was definitely a flash knockdown. I wasn’t hurt.
“I was supposed to use my footwork a lot more but I ended up smothering my shots. He had an awkward defense with a lot of bending down and I couldn’t get into a rhythm.
“This was a big opportunity for me and I felt like I fought a good fight. I’m going to come back stronger. We’re going to work on a lot of things and get back in there.”

Earlier in the evening on SHOWTIME, undefeated heavyweight sensation Anthony Joshua successfully defended his IBF Heavyweight World Championship for the first time with a seventh round knockout of previously unbeaten American Dominic Breazeale at The O2 in London. ΒΙΝΤΕΟ: http://s.sho.com/28VGgsa
Below are quotes from Joshua after Σάββατο win on SHOWTIME BOXING INTERNATIONAL:
Many thought that Dominic Breazeale wouldn’t be able to stand up to your power and speed, but were you grateful for the opportunity to work a little bit more of your boxing skills?
“Well, it’s hard because you can see they’re hurt with every shot – well not every shot – but when you start catching them flush, they can feel the shots with these ten ounce gloves on. Έτσι, it’s just a matter of time, but in the process I didn’t want to be receiving any haymakers on the way back.
“It’s been tough I had two weeks off after my last fight, and got straight back in the gym so it was tough. I get a nice little break for once and then I can come back with recharged batteries.”
We know Deontay Wilder was watching the fight. Have you got a message for him, the WBC Champion?
“Unbelievable inspirational person. He was patient, 30-odd fights [και] got his hands on the WBC [ζώνη]. I’m following suit. I’m making my way into the U.S. with SHOWTIME backing me as well. Έτσι, he watched that.
“He can pick up whatever he wants to pick up from that, but it’s so different when you’re in the ring with each other. So one day we’ll get to experience what each other’s about.”
Who do you want to fight next?
“Well I think it’s gonna have to be the likes of [Ιωσήφ] Parker. I was really looking at Fury… I hope he gets better soon. He hurt his ankle unfortunately, which has postponed it because I was hoping to get that some time in the winter if everything went well July 9th like it didαπόψε, but we’re gonna have to reschedule that and in the meantime, we can look at other opponents like Parker, if he’s vacant, or anyone else that the people want.”
What do you think that you still need to work on?
“Rest. I need to rest. I’m tired, I’m working hard and as I said, now i can get

Keith Θέρμαν, Shawn Porter, Jarrett Hurd & Oscar Molina Final Press Conference Quotes & Φωτογραφίες
Major statement made by Undefeated Demetrius “Boo Boo” Andrade
ΠΡΟΝΟΙΑ (Ιούνιος 23, 2016) – A year after he was stripped of his world super welterweight title by the World Boxing Organization (WBO), undefeated super welterweight Δημήτριος “Boo Boo” Andrade has repositioned himself off of his sensational June 11 ου stoppage of Willle “Ο Μέγας” Νέλσον επί SHOWTIME ΠΡΩΤΑΘΛΗΜΑ ΠΥΓΜΑΧΙΑΣ®.
The 28-year-old Andrade (23-0, 16 KOs) decked Nelson (25-3-1, 15 KOs) four times, finishing off his game opponent who’d never been knocked out, στην 12ου round of their fight at Turning Stone Casino (Βερόνα, Ν.Υ.).
Andrade successfully defended his WBO International title and also gained several valuable options in terms of world title and/or major fights. He is now the No. 1 mandatory contender in the World Boxing Council (WBC), waiting to challenge the winner of a mandated title fight between new champion Jermell Charlo and WBC Silver title holder Ο Τσαρλς Χέτλεϊ. Ο 2008 Η.Π.Α.. Olympian is No. 2 στην WBO, Μη. 3 in the World Boxing Association (WBA), και Miguel Cotto is No. 1 in both of those sanctioning organizations.
After his sensational, statement-making performance against Nelson, Andrade said he wanted to fight anybody whose name started with “Γ” and ended in ‘O” – the Charlo brothers (IBF champion isJermall Charlo), Cotto and “Canelo” (Σαούλ Alvarez).
“I am the best fighter in the 154-pound division,” Andrade proclaimed. “I’m the No. 1 contender in the WBO. Liam Σμιθ is holding my belt but I don’t believe he’ll fight me. I’m the WBC mandatory for the Charlo-Hatley winner. Once I get that belt I’ll beat Charlo’s twin for the IBF title and I’ve been calling out (WBA champ Erislandy) Lara for a long time. But ‘Canelo’ is the big money fight out there for me and who I want the most. I can be ready for him in September for his next fight. Στο τέλος της ημέρας, we’ll see what’s up, but I want to get right back in the ring as soon as one of these guys step up to fight me.”
During his long layoff, Andrade made a conscious effort to be a more fan-friendly fighter, building up his strength to go along with his superior quickness. Many called his last fight, ‘Mayweather-like,’ in which Demetrius displayed tremendous power and explosiveness, which complemented his incredible boxing skills and defense.
“When I first turned pro,” Andrade εξήγησε, “I was getting in the ring with some good fighters, so I was cautious and settled in on just getting a victory. I learned that I needed to change in order to put butts in seats. I don’t get hit and I also showed that I could go 12 γύρους, good for experience, and still takeout a tough fighter like Nelson who had never been stopped. I wasn’t going for the knockout but, after I caught him early with a right hook, I knew that it would come if I was patient and kept up the pressure. I think Willie can give any of the other top guys at 154 a good fight. He has a big heart and came to win. It wasn’t as easy as it may have looked on the scorecards. Willie pushed me to look good. During my layoff, I worked hard on my craft to be better, concentrating on strength and conditioning, and it really showed in my last fight. I worked on my fundamentals and had a lot of success going to the body. I believe fans saw improvement in my performance and appreciated it.”
More comfortable knowing his promotional issues are now in the past (his A Team Promotions owns 50% of his rights to go along with 25% each for Banner Promotions (Άρτι Pelullo) και Star Boxing (Joe DeGuardia), Andrade is prepared to clean out the 154-division before eventually moving up in weight to take on Gennady Golovkin in what Andrade believes can be a mega-fight in due time.
“I’ve always known since I first saw Demetrius in the ring at 14 years old that he was going to become a superstar,” A Team Promotions president Και Φάρις σχολίασε. “There were so many doubters and obstacles along the way. It sure took a long time to get here but I’m so happy for him that his moment has finally arrived. You don’t know how good it feels to see him fulfill his destiny.”
Andrade, όντως, hasn’t lost inside the ring in nearly eight years, when he was ripped off against Korean boxer Kim Jung-Joo, 11-9, in the quarterfinals of the 2008 Ολυμπιακοί Αγώνες στο Πεκίνο, Κίνα. The boxer named “Boo Boo” – as a kid with cuts, bumps and bruises – doesn’t plan on changing his unbeaten script.
“I’m still untouchable,” Andrade concluded. “I’ve shown my continued commitment to boxing. It’s ‘Boo Boo’ ώρα!”
