WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION DEONTAY WILDER MEDIA WORKOUT QUOTES FROM NORTHPORT, ALABAMA

When we step in that ring, nothing is acceptable but a knockout. And I’m looking to knock him out.” – دئوتای وایلدر
متحیر کردن (36-0, 35 کوس) Defends Against Mandatory Challenger
الکساندر Povetkin (30-1, 22 کوس) One Month From Today
بر مه 21 در مسکو, روسیه
NORTHPORT, ALA. (آوریل 21, 2016) -شکست نخورده WBC قهرمان سنگین وزن جهان دئوتای وایلدر hosted a media workout سهشنبه at the Skyy Gym in Northport, علا. as he prepares to become the first reigning American heavyweight champion to travel to Russia to defend his title.
In exactly one month, بر روز شنبه, مه 21, متحیر کردن (36-0, 35 کوس), از تاسکالوسا، آلاباما, علا., will put his world title on the line against mandatory challenger and native Russian,الکساندر Povetkin (30-1, 22 کوس), در مسکو.
Here’s what Wilder said at his Media Workout day در روز سه شنبه:
دئوتای وایلدر
(On his expectations going to Russia…)
My expectation is, البته, بردن. To come back with that victory for America. این یک دعوای بزرگ است, not just for myself, for America. It’s like Russia vs. آمریکا. I’ve been getting nothing but positive feedback from fans all over. Even if they weren’t a fan of Deontay Wilder they are now for this very fight. Hopefully I can win them over to stay a fan of Deontay Wilder after this fight. I think it’s a great fight. I think it’s a great thing that we’re going over to Russia defending my title in somebody else’s backyard.
“مانند قبل از من گفت:, it’s easier for me to fight here in American but that’s not what it’s all about to me. When I have a title that says the heavyweight champion of the world, I want to travel all over the world to defend my title. I’m living my dream, I’m getting an opportunity to do that with this fight. I’m looking forward to Russia and I want to tell Russia,’Here I come.’ “
(What it means to be the first heavyweight champion to fight in Russia…)
It means a lot. It makes me even closer to my faith. God doesn’t make mistakes in lives. He doesn’t make a mistake in my life, your life or anybody else. Things happen for a reason and they happen at the right time in your life. Things may not come when you want it, but when they come it’s right on time. The things that have been accumulating throughout my career, it’s been amazing. How I’ve been able to make history, beat other records, and continue to make history. این شگفت انگیز است. I just want to know what else he has in store for my life. If it’s continuously history being made, what’s next? من بسیار هیجان زده هستم.
I can’t wait to see how my life unfolds at the end of my career. What happens at the end of Deontay Wilder when it’s time for him to say I’ve done all I’ve done in this sport and I don’t want to do it anymore. I want to see how much ground I can cover for those that have come before me.
(How you predict the fight going…)
I predict the fight as being a punishment in the first round and then knocking him out. All heavyweights want to knock somebody out so we have to say we’re going to knock them out. This is the cream of the crop division. The heavyweights. The hard-hitters. The heavy hitters, آنها می گویند. When we step in that ring, nothing is acceptable but a knockout. And I’m looking to knock him out.
(On if he’s reached his peak…)
Not at all and that’s the scary part about it. I haven’t even reached my peak yet and I’m still learning on the way up. I want to always learn. Each and every fight brings experience to me. It brings something that I’ve taken away from that fight and that I’ve added to the next fight. Looking forward to being very crisp and very good in this fight and showing people a little bit more of what Deontay Wilder is capable of. Especially those who haven’t seen anything thus far yet, stay tuned to this fight. This is one you don’t want to miss.
(On unifying the titles in the future…)
“قطعا. I really feel when I say that I will be the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world, I don’t just say it to say it, but I also feel it inside me, deep inside me that I will be the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world and add my name to the few undisputed champions that have come before me. My name will be placed in history on that. Why wouldn’t it? All the things I’ve done up to now, that will be the icing on my cake to be the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world. I won’t stop, no matter how many hours I have to put in. No matter how many fights that I have to take. No matter how many countries I have to visit to defend my title. I will be the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world.
(On concerns about going to Russia…)
I don’t have any concerns. I don’t let my brain sit back and think about if I don’t knock him out or are they going to rob me, or anything like that. I just don’t want my mind to be on that when I’m in a fight. I want to have a clear mind. I want to go in there and do what Deontay is capable of doing. همانطور که گفتم, all things are in God’s hands and if it’s in his will for me to win, it’s going to happen. If not then, I don’t stop there. My legacy is not going to stop there. But I’m very confident in what I’m about to do and what I’m going to do, and we all know that if we knock him out then we don’t have to worry about that. So of course that’s going to be my priority on my listto knock him out.

‘I don’t see this being a boring fight; he’s going to bring it, I’m going to bring it’ – Austin Trout

واشنگتن, D.C. (آوریل 20, 2016) - آستین ماهی قزل آلا (30-2, 17 کوس), the former super welterweight world champion, is ready to collect his second world title on روز شنبه, مه 21 when he meets IBF Junior Middleweight world champion Jermall چارلو، مونتانا in a 12-round match live on SHOWTIME (10 p.m. و/7 p.m. PT) از چلسی, a one-of-a-kind 40,000-square-foot venue inside جهان وطنی از لاس وگاس.

 

“It’s my time,” said Trout. “My focus is amplified 10-fold. I’m the confident, happy Austin that fans know, but trust me, when it’s fight time I’m ready for any dogfight that comes. You’ll see Austin bring out and defeat the ‘Lion’ in him because at the end of the day I’m taking that belt.”

 

بلیط برای رویداد زنده, است که توسط تبلیغات Mayweather و جوایز TGB ترویج, در حال حاضر در فروش هستند. قیمت بلیط در شروع $39, و در دسترس هستند آنلاین در www.cosmopolitanlasvegas.com از طریق کارتون در یا (800) 745-3000و www.ticketmaster.com.

 

Born in El Paso, Texas and raised in Las Cruces, نیومکزیکو, Trout is trained by Barry Hunter and Louie Burke of Headbangers Gym in Washington D.C. Having started boxing at the age of 10, his natural talent and the ability to grow into the sport took Austin across the United States and Latin America in the amateur divisions and then into the pros. Known as one of the fiercest gentlemen competitors in the sport, he beat the likes of Miguel Cotto, Rigoberto Alvarez and Delvin Rodriguez, before losing his title to Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez. Trout comes into مه 21 looking to claim a title in a division he’s been a true threat within for his career.

 

You’ve said you’ve been led to this fight, why is it important?

“Coming off of four consecutive wins, I’m not just on a comeback streak but I’m taking a full step forward. Charlo is the champ, this fight is about no more half stepping. It’s about taking on the best. Isn’t that what it’s about, being the best?"

 

How is camp going?

“I physically feel great. I’m really comfortable with Barry, it’s my fourth camp with the Headbangers team; Luis is there as well. Luis helps me with pre-camp and then I shift to D.C.

 

“I was already in D.C. getting camp started when the rumors about this fight came true. I had been at the gym at home for pre-camp for a month and a half before hitting D.C. I was working out five times a week, running every day just getting the program going. همانطور که گفتم, no half-stepping. I’m already sparring, doing the work, getting right. I’m not walking through it but running and trotting through it. من هستم 30, I’m at my physical peak, my talent couldn’t be any better.”

 

Talk about the fight and what to expect?

“Neither one of us is going out without a fight, so I don’t see this being a boring fight. It’s time for people to remember me. I’ve earned this championship shot against an undefeated bull like Jermall Charlo but I will take his belt. "

 

Your first professional loss was against ‘Canelo’ Alvarez in San Antonio in 2013. What are your thoughts on that fight?

“I had a good, competitive fight with Saul – it felt like a unification bout – I was WBA champion and he was WBC champion. The open scoring was more detrimental to my game plan thea the judges! During the fight when I was told that I wasn’t winning on anyone’s cards I had to change my game plan. It was a dogfight. Canelo never had to box and move that much before in a fight.

"اما, live and learn. Instead of walking into a fight like that I listened to those around me. No more surprises. This Charlo fight is a fight I want, a fight my team wants and we’re ready. I’m a more mature, focused champion who’s coming back. I’m dangerous – I have experience, talent and God on my side.”

اینجا چیزی است که شرکت کنندگان به حال برای گفتن:
JACK BADOU
I’m looking forward to another victory. این است برای رفتن به یک مبارزه دشوار, اما من آماده ام. I’ve been training really hard and I’m ready to get into the ring.
I’m more focused and determined now than ever to secure what is mine. The fans will have an exciting show to look forward to on آوریل 30. I can guarantee that!
My daughter being born this morning is extra motivation for me and to continue working hard to provide for my family. I only slept for 2 ساعت, but I feel brand new.
I still feel fresh! اردوگاه آموزشی خوب است. Everything is right on schedule. I’m feeling really focused.
لوسین BUTE
The most important thing for me is to have fun when I train. My confidence level is back at 100 در صد. There’s a great atmosphere here at the gym and I have great chemistry with my trainers. I’ve done quality sparring and starting next week we’ll be reducing the training volume so as to focus more on the level of intensity.
The pressure won’t be on me because I’ll be on his turf, در واشنگتن. He is the favorite because he’s the champion, but I’m confident and I’m able! We looked at some video of him with Howard (Grant). او یک قهرمان بوکس خوب است, but he’s not exceptional and he makes mistakes. I have experience. This will be my 13th world championship fight. My experience and my speed will make the difference.
My confidence level wasn’t at 100 percent before I fought James DeGale, but now it’s all back after performing the way I did against him. All the better for me if Badou Jack is already looking ahead to his next fight, is taking me for granted and is underestimating me. I know for my part that I can beat him. He did well in his last bout against George Groves, where he was able to come up with a good right blow that sent him to the canvas. But I’m going there to deliver.
I’ve now been training for a year with Howard Grant, who already knows me well and pushes me to go beyond my limits. We’ve developed a trusting relationship and I feel very comfortable working alongside him. بیان آن در کلمات سخت است! It’s true, من هستم 36 ساله, but I still have some good years ahead of me in professional boxing. For Éric Lucas, who had this belt for several years, I will bring back the title to the province of Quebec.
SHARIF BOGERE
Training camp has been going tremendously well. I’m excited to get back in action on آوریل 30. it’s going to be a good show. Two world titles on the line, that’s something big.
I want people to know who شیر است. People will know that شیر is here to stay. I will put on a great show as I always do.
I want to put on a good show so the fans will never forget about my presence in this division. Being born in Uganda, it’s important for me to make my homeland proud.
LATONDRIA JONES
“اردوگاه آموزشی شده است به خوبی رفتن, I am looking forward to going into the fight real strong, dominating and come out with a win. It’s important that I continue to stay mentally focused and physically ready.
I don’t really look too much into to my opponents, until I’m getting ready for that belt. As far as I know, this is her pro debut. I’m going to show her what this is all about, and give her that pro life.
I was born in D.C. پس, I look forward to going back and fighting at the Armory to give my hometown fans what they want to see. They came to see a show, and I plan on delivering. I look forward to getting better and coming out on top. I’m working hard and taking it day-by-day. I thank God for being in this position that I’m in.

WITH HIGHLIGHT-REEL KNOCKOUT, MASON MENARD NOW SERIOUS CONTENDER IN LIGHTWEIGHT DIVISION

It’s been three days sincethe shot heard round the world,” the one-punch knockout Louisiana lightweight Mason “سنگ سخت توانا” Menard scored over opponent Eudy Bernardo. VIDEO: HTTP://s.sho.com/1NtEYjW

In what will certainly be a “حذفی از سال” نامزد, Menard’s devastating right hand left the formerly undefeated Bernardo unconscious and announced the 27-year-old as an unexpected fighter to watch in the lightweight division.
“من سخت تمرین می کنم, diet right. I get good sparring. I do everything to the tee. I go to church on Sundays and the blessing come true for me,” said a happy Menard, پس از مبارزه. “It felt great to be on the world stage and perform like that. With all my people back home watching and developing new fans out of the people watching everywhere, it’s just a great feeling. I want to continue this.

He has since recovered. “I knew in my mind it’d last about three rounds, but I didn’t expect that shot to take him out,” continued Menard. “It’s a great feeling to get a victory, but I’d rather my opponent walk out of the ring. I saw he was seriously hurt and I got down on one knee and said a prayer for him.
For Menard’s promoter, گرگ کوهن از تبلیغات گرگ کوهن, the victory was not unexpected, despite Bernardo being favored going in, but is still a very pleasant development.

MASHANTUCKET, را هدایت کردن. (آوریل. 17, 2016) – WBC Featherweight World Champion گری راسل جونیور. retained his title with a remarkable TKO of Irishman پاتریک Hyland روز شنبهon SHOWTIME from Fox Theater at Foxwoods Resort Casino in Mashantucket, را هدایت کردن. در همکاری ویژگی, خوزه Pedraza از تیم defended his IBF Junior Lightweight title with a unanimous decision over استفان اسمیت.

 

امشب event was a family affair with Russell Jr. working his brother Antonio’s corner during امشب undercard and boxing’s Smith brothers, including current WBO Super Welterweight World Champion Liam Smith, cheering from the crowd.

 

A relentless Russell brought the main event to a quick halt by registering three knockdowns in the second round, the last of which forced referee Danny Schiavone to end the contest at 1:33. از زنگ اول, واشنگتن, D.C. native came out swinging with his trademark hand speed and dangerous power. راسل, یک southpaw, successfully broke down—and knocked out—Hyland with multiple vicious right hooks.

 

“We stuck to the game plan. We stayed sharp,” said Russell Jr., که پرونده خود را به بهبود می بخشد 27 برنده, one loss, 15 knockouts به.

 

“I’m ready to fight anyone in the division – Santa Cruz, لی سلبی. We are ready. But what I really want is [واسیل] لوماچنکو. I don’t care if he moves up to 147 پوند. I will go anywhere to get that fight,” Russell said.

 

“There aren’t many fighters who you instantly know are special,” said SHOWTIME Sports expert analyst Steve Farhood. “The combination of Gary Russell’s hand speed and accuracy instantly shows us that he’s special. That was plainly evident امشب and at times his hand speed was frightening.”

 

Pedraza از تیم (22-0, 12 کوس) remained disciplined and came out victorious during his second IBF 130-pound world title defense. A combination of timing, hand speed and good defense allowed the Puerto Rican native to dominate the 12-round championship fight.

 

“This definitely was a tough fight but the training really came to advantage in this fight,” Pedraza told SHOWTIME Sports reporter Jim Gray. “I knew he was a tough fighter so I was always aware.”

 

“I had better focus امشب. I had a better training camp,” said Pedraza, referring to his controversial split decision win over Edner Cherry two fights ago. “I knew that Stephen Smith was a great fighter and even after the knockdown, we were very cautious not to rush in.”

 

“Pedraza won امشب with different weapons. Mostly right hands to the head,گفت: "فرهود. “I had the fight even after eight rounds and once Pedraza dropped Smith in the ninth, he gained momentum that he never lost and he pulled away. It was an impressive performance but also an important one because it erased a lot of the negative criticism Pedraza received in his controversial win over Edner Cherry.”

 

Pedraza was the more accurate fighter, فرود 50 percent of his power punches over the 12-round bout. The Sniper was able to pick his spots and pocket rounds once he figured out the distance. Smith had his moments, but wasn’t active enough.

بعد از کند شدن در هفتم و هشتم, جوان (14-0-3, 6 کوس) چرخ دنده دیگری را در یک نهم چشمگیر یافت, برنده شدن در دور آخر در تمام کارتهای امتیازی داوران. اما, حتی پس از دستورالعمل های فوری از گوشه او, جوان نمی توانست حرکت را به 10هفتم و دور آخر را در هر سه کارت امتیازی از دست داد.

 

"من از تصمیم گیری بسیار ناراضی هستم. برای هر بار که او مرا زد, دو ضربه بهش زدم,”گفت پوتاپوف, که انداخت 315 ضعف در مقایسه با فقط 113 برای یانگ. "من مبارز بسیار سرگرم کننده ای بودم. من نمی دانم قضات چه نبردی را تماشا می کردند. حداکثر در چهار دور باختم.

 

"من قبلا هرگز قرعه کشی نکرده ام. احساس می کنم از یک برد فریب خورده ام. من از اینکه در آمریکا می جنگیدم بسیار خوشحال شدم اما اکنون احساس فریب خورده ام. "

 

پس از مبارزه با, سنت. جوان ، اهل لویی ، ناامید شد اما می دانست که لازم است مشت های بیشتری پرتاب کند.

 

"من احساس می کنم که این یک جنگ خوب بود, اما من باید تصمیم می گرفتم,"جوان گفت. "من هر وقت او را می زنم او را آزار می دهم. به او اجازه دادم شلوغتر از من باشد, اما تا آنجا که تماس, احساس می کنم مشت های م moreثرتری را به زمین فرود آورده ام. این استراتژی من بود.

 

"من باید کمی زودتر می آمدم. نقشه من این بود, اما در مبارزه کمی آرام شدم. من در دور نهم وارد زمین شدم که مربی ام به من گفت او را از آنجا بیرون کن.

 

"من قطعاً یک بازی برگشت می خواهم. دوست دارم دوباره این کار را انجام دهم. "

روبرو شدن با سخت ترین حریف خود تا به امروز, منارد کفپوش کرد (31-1, 23 کوس) برناردو برای اولین بار در کار خود با یک سری حقوق نزدیک به پایان دور دوم است. برناردو دومنیکن شمارش را شکست داد و دور را تمام کرد, اما او پاسخی برای قدرت منارد نداشت. کمتر از یک دقیقه به سوم رسیده است, منارد با یک حق بزرگ ارتباط برقرار کرد, در زدن برناردو (21-1, 15 کوس) قبل از اینکه حتی به بوم ضربه بزنه.

 

"من بیانیه دادم امشب. افراد زیادی نمی دانستند که من به دنبال چه کسی می روم, اما آنها اکنون من را می شناسند,"گفت منارد, که تقریباً فرود آمد 50 درصد از عکس های قدرت خود را. "سرعت من, قدرت و کار پا تفاوت بود.

 

"من در وسط حلقه برای او دعا کردم که او سالم به خانواده اش برگردد."

 

برناردو, به عنوان یک اقدام احتیاطی با استفاده از برانکارد از رینگ خارج شد, او به نزدیكی بهداشت Oneida منتقل شد و در آنجا بیدار و پاسخگو بود.

 

در جلسه افتتاحیه این برنامه تلویزیونی, وزنه برداری بدون شکستکنستانتین بنجارو دست آلکسی Zubov اولین باخت در حرفه خود در یک تصمیم متقاعد کننده هشت دور متفق القول 77-74, 78-73 دو برابر.

 

صرفه جویی در یک ناک داون دور هفتم, Bejenaru (11-0, 4 کوس) مبارزه را از همان ابتدا کنترل کرد. بومی مولداوی بر یک ضعف قد چهار اینچ غلبه کرد, حمله از زوایای مختلف و کنترل مبادلات داخلی و خارجی. دندانها (10-1, 6 کوس) هرگز وارد ریتم نشد و نتوانست از مزیت دستیابی خود در برابر پنجه جنوبی فعال و ورزشی استفاده کند.

 

او بوکسور کلاسیک خوبی بود, اما او خیلی صاف است و نمی تواند خودش را تنظیم کند,"Bejenaru گفت. "ضرب و شتم او به آسانی به نظر نمی رسید. سبک خودم را برای این کار تنظیم کردم زیرا می دانستم این کار او را دچار تردید خواهد کرد. من می دانستم که اگر فقط مدام به او حمله کنم ، نمی داند چه کاری انجام دهد. "

 

زوبوف و برناردو اکنون این افراد هستند 146هفتم و 147هفتم بوکسورها اولین ضرر حرفه ای خود را در سری توسعه چشم انداز متحمل می شوند.

نیویورک (آوریل 13, 2016) – WBC ورزشکار پروزن قهرمان گری راسل جونیور. (26-1, 15 کوس), از کاپیتول ارتفاعات, دکتر., and Irish contender پاتریک Hyland (31-1, 15 کوس), of Dublin, faced off at the final press conference چهار شنبه at Highline Ballroom in New York, as they approach این روز شنبه Featherweight World Title fight live on SHOWTIME® from the Fox Theater in Foxwoods Resort Casino in Mashantucket, CT.
The SHOWTIME قهرمانی بوکس® برنامه تلویزیونی آغاز می شود در زندگی می کنند 11 p.m. و/8 p.m. PT on SHOWTIME with IBF Junior Lightweight World Championship clash between unbeaten Puerto Rican خوزه Pedraza از تیم (21-0, 12 کوس) و چالش اجباری استفان اسمیت (23-1, 13 کوس), of Liverpool, انگلستان.
Here’s what the fighters had to say at چهارشنبه final press conference.
گری روسل JR.
(On Patrick Hyland…)
“اولین و مهمترین, I gotta tip my hat off to him. I heard him say he was being trained by his father. Me and my younger brothers are also trained by my dad. My father is my favorite superhero, so it is very hard to deal with a situation like this and to bounce back and to grind and put all the hard work and effort into it after all the heartache and loss, I gotta tip my hat off to him for that.
I know that anytime you have a fighter that trains for six to eight weeks and prepares for no one else but you, is a dangerous fight. او قد بلند, he’s long, but we can take him. We’re going to handle it.
(On returning from injury…)
“من احساس می کنم خوب. من حاضرم; I put the work in at the gym. مثل من که قبلا گفت, I got cussed out several times and sometimes I left the gym feeling like the worst fighter ever. اما, همین الان, we’re ready and we’re prepared to invest in my ability.
(On what it means to have his brother Antonio on the card he’s headlining…)
It means a lot. من مشتاقانه منتظر آن هستم. I’m actually more looking forward to watching my brother compete than my own fight. I will definitely be working his corner in that fight. It means a lot for us to be able to pass this information down from generation to generation and watch it grow and watch us build as a family and as a unit. این شگفت انگیز است.’
He definitely has the potential to be the best. Him as well as Antuanne, who is now on the 2016 تیم المپیک. It’s all information passed down from generation to generation. I feel as though they definitely have the ability to be better than me. I would want them to be anyway.
(On what he needs to win the fight…)
I need to maintain control of the fight, close the distance and maintain the jab. Complete dominance; I want to touch the body early. He likes to move a lot, so we’re going to cut all that down.
(On potential future opponents…)
God willing, everything goes right come آوریل 16, we would love to unify with Lee Selby. If I had my choice, I would go with Lee Selby first to unify. Immediately after that, I want Leo Santa Cruz and after that I need Lomachenko.
I don’t care where [لوماچنکو] moves. He can lose his next 10 دعوا, but before my career’s done he has to see me.
PATRICK HYLAND
(On what gives him the sense of satisfaction in boxing…)
To fight for the WBC title is everything I’ve dreamed of since I was a kid and all of the hard work that I have put in to get to this position to fight for it. I am happy and I am just living for it now for روز شنبه شب.”
(On being the first Irish boxer since Barry McGuigan to hold a featherweight world title…)
It’s a whirlwind and it’s great. I’m just a local lad from Johnstown in Dublin and to be fighting on the big stage and to be fighting for a major world title, and again to be named the second featherweight ever to win a world title would be just amazing; a real dream come true for myself.
(On Gary Russell…)
I know he’s got fast hands. He’s a great southpaw and a great boxer so I have to be at the best of my ability در روز شنبه night for that. I worked on a game plan in the gym to counter his hand speed and it all has to come together on fight night. I can do all this and say all that, but I just have to perform در روز شنبه night and put it in by doing everything I’ve worked on to become champion.
خوزه Pedraza از تیم
(در اردوی آموزشی…)
I am feeling really good, we’re in the last stretch of conditioning. It was a very long and intense training camp but we saw improvements in my abilities. I have been waiting a long time for this day to come and we are going to demonstrate to Smith that I am a weapon.
(On Stephen Smith)
Smith is a very good boxer, he has a lot of abilities and intelligence. He’s a boxer with very good defense, but we already utilize a variety of strategies to be able to neutralize all of his abilities.
(On what he plans to demonstrate در روز شنبه…)
With my abilities, مانند روز شنبه, I will demonstrate that I am above Smith and that I am at the level of what I am, a champion. به طور کلی, I just want to put on a show and I hope that the fan base will enjoy this great card.
(On what he learned from fighting Edner Cherry)
I learned what I have always said and what I have always done to this very day, which is never watching. I never watch too many videos of my opponent because on the day of the fight he could be a completely different fighter and I think that is what occurred then. Aside from that, he utilized a great strategy.
(On his thoughts on other Puerto Rican boxers)
Actually I am a world champion just like Rocky Martinez; there are many Puerto Rican prospects. مانند [فلیکس] Verdejo but I don’t consider him as a world title contender just yet. He hasn’t fought with a boxer of championship caliber but he is currently among the top fighters in Puerto Rico.
(On other fights he may be interested in at 130 پوند…)
I have always said that the less Puerto Ricans I fight, بهتر. If it is the last option, I will fight with Puerto Ricans too but aside from that Rocky [مارتینز] the world champ, there’s Francisco Vargas, [خاویر] ثروت, to name a few that are at the top of my list.
STEPHEN SMITH
(On his first time fighting in the U.S….)
“من بسیار هیجان زده هستم. If you want to make a name in boxing, then you’re going to do it in the states and that’s what I plan on doing by becoming a world champion Saturday.
(On what he knows about Pedraza)
“خوب, not quite a lot. I know his name from the amateur days. He’s well established, he’s an Olympian and he’s a talented man. To fight somebody consists of winning or not, it goes beyond tactics, beyond style and beyond skillset really. I believe I have what it takes to fight anyone and nothing will keep me from becoming a world champion.
(On what he needs to do to get the victory)
It can be a different type of fight; we know he likes to switch it up and box from different stances. He’s obviously talented so it’s going to take a different set from each way but we know what to expect. I’ve gone over everything with my trainer Joe Gallagher and we’re ready to go.
(On his brothers Liam and Callum being champions and what it could mean to potentially join them)
It’s special. Two weeks ago Liam and Callum won a European world title and it just gives me the confidence, the spirit to hike. I’m in a really good place mentally and I couldn’t be feeling better going into it. After my boot camp going successfully, it just makes you feel better going ahead to become a world champion.
(On UK champions on the rise in the past year)
There’s a lot of history there and for myself and my family, so we do what we’ve always wanted to do and we’re looking to just keep moving forward.
TRAINER JOE GALLAGHER
(در اردوی آموزشی…)
It was good. Obviously it boiled up to Callum’s win. There’s a good momentum. Callum and then Stephen has his world title opportunity. It’s been a slow burning rise with Stephen but he’s got, as I call it ‘his World Cup final’ — something that is going to take heart and strength. His strength is going very well. Pedraza is a very good fighter, good orthodox, good southpaw, he can mix it up and we’re prepared for whatever style he wants to bring در روز شنبه.”
(On the process of preparing for a fighter like Pedraza)
It’s a nightmare. It’s hard enough when you’re fighting a quality orthodox or a quality southpaw, of which he is, but not only that. He can also box on the back foot and on the front foot so we’re varying sparring partners, we’re mixing up the sparring in between the rounds, switching stances, and whichever way Pedraza wants to fight at the end of the night, I’m sure we’ll have an answer for.
(On how he feels the fight will play out)
I think that’s all up to Pedraza, looking back at a few of his fights, he boxes slow and gets off to a good start but then he seems to lose his way a little in rounds. When you watch him against [آندری] Klimov, he started out very well, put him under manners very quickly and had him nearly beat by the fourth round but [آندری] managed to stay in very well and boxed really well. He got to the middle rounds, lost his way a little bit, switched southpaw, so either way it’s going to be fascinating. We’ve just got to make sure we don’t get caught to early when he’s quick and he’s sharp and he’s trying to put manners in Stephen Smith and then take him into the deep waters like Edner Cherry.
(His prediction)
“استفان اسمیت. Possibly by knockout. نکن, definitely by knockout.
