WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION DEONTAY WILDER MEDIA WORKOUT QUOTES FROM NORTHPORT, 阿拉巴马州

When we step in that ring, nothing is acceptable but a knockout. And I’m looking to knock him out.” – Deontay怀尔德
怀尔德 (36-0, 35 科斯) Defends Against Mandatory Challenger
亚历山大Povetkin (30-1, 22 科斯) One Month From Today
五月 21 在莫斯科, 俄罗斯
NORTHPORT, ALA. (四月 21, 2016) -不败的WBC重量级世界冠军 Deontay怀尔德 hosted a media workout 星期二 at the Skyy Gym in Northport, 翼. as he prepares to become the first reigning American heavyweight champion to travel to Russia to defend his title.
In exactly one month, 上 星期六, 五月 21, 怀尔德 (36-0, 35 科斯), 塔斯卡卢萨, 阿拉。, will put his world title on the line against mandatory challenger and native Russian,亚历山大Povetkin (30-1, 22 科斯), 在莫斯科.
Here’s what Wilder said at his Media Workout day 周二:
Deontay怀尔德
(On his expectations going to Russia…)
My expectation is, 当然, 赢. To come back with that victory for America. 这是一场大战, not just for myself, for America. It’s like Russia vs. 美国. 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.
“就像我之前说, 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. 太奇妙了. I just want to know what else he has in store for my life. If it’s continuously history being made, what’s next? 我很兴奋.
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, 正如他们所说. 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…)
“明确地. 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. 就像我说的, 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

点击 这里 For Photos From Dave Nadkarni/PBC

本报讯, D.C. (四月 20, 2016) - 奥斯汀鳟鱼 (30-2, 17 科斯), the former super welterweight world champion, is ready to collect his second world title on 星期六, 五月 21 when he meets IBF Junior Middleweight world champion Jermall夏洛茨维尔 in a 12-round match live on 开演时间 (10 P.M. AND/7 P.M. PT) 从 切尔西, a one-of-a-kind 40,000-square-foot venue inside 拉斯维加斯The Cosmopolitan酒店.

 

“轮到我了,” 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.”

 

门票现场活动, 这是由梅威瑟促销和TGB促销推广, 现已公开发售. 门票价格在开始 $39, 并且可在网上 www.cosmopolitanlasvegas.com 或通过 Ticketmaster (800) 745-3000www.ticketmaster.com.

 

Born in El Paso, Texas and raised in Las Cruces, 新墨西哥, 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 五月 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. 就像我说的, no half-stepping. I’m already sparring, doing the work, getting right. I’m not walking through it but running and trotting through it. 我 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.

“但是,, 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.”

这里是参与者不得不说:
BADOU JACK
I’m looking forward to another victory. 这将是一场艰苦的战斗, 但我准备好了. 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 四月 30. 我可以保证!
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 小时, but I feel brand new.
I still feel fresh! 训练营是好的. Everything is right on schedule. I’m feeling really focused.
卢西恩弼
The most important thing for me is to have fun when I train. My confidence level is back at 100 百分. 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, 华盛顿. 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). 他是一个很好的拳击手, 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. It’s hard to put into words! It’s true, 我 36 岁, 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 四月 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 狮子 是. People will know that 狮子 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
“训练营已经顺利, 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. 所以, 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.

马山, 康涅狄格州. (四月. 17, 2016) – WBC Featherweight World Champion 加里·拉塞尔JR. retained his title with a remarkable TKO of Irishman 帕特里克·海兰 星期六on SHOWTIME from Fox Theater at Foxwoods Resort Casino in Mashantucket, 康涅狄格州. 在共同特征, 何塞·佩德拉萨 defended his IBF Junior Lightweight title with a unanimous decision over Stephen Smith.

 

今晚的 event was a family affair with Russell Jr. working his brother Antonio’s corner during 今晚的 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. 从第一钟, 华盛顿, D.C. native came out swinging with his trademark hand speed and dangerous power. 罗素, 一个左撇子, successfully broke down—and knocked out—Hyland with multiple vicious right hooks.

 

“We stuck to the game plan. We stayed sharp,” said Russell Jr., 谁改进他的纪录 27 胜, one loss, 15 击倒.

 

“I’m ready to fight anyone in the division – Santa Cruz, 李谢肃方. We are ready. But what I really want is [Vasyl] Lomachenko. I don’t care if he moves up to 147 英镑. 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 今晚 and at times his hand speed was frightening.”

 

佩德拉萨 (22-0, 12 科斯) 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 今晚. 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 今晚 with different weapons. Mostly right hands to the head,“Farhood的说. “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, 着陆 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.

VERONA, 纽约州. (四月 15, 2016) – 不败的最轻量级前景 尼古拉·波塔波夫斯蒂芬·扬 争取多数平局的ShoBox: 新一代 主要事件 星期五 维罗纳 Turning Stone Resort Casino 的 SHOWTIME, 纽约州.

 

回合进行评分 96-94 波塔波夫和 95-95 两次.

 

波塔波夫和杨面临着他们最难缠的对手. 波塔波夫 (14-0-1, 6 科斯) 他的刺拳很早就控制了节奏,并且是更活跃的战士, 出拳次数几乎是杨的两倍. 杨在中间回合中恢复了活力并获得了信心,当他按下动作并放开双手时,他处于最佳状态. 但俄罗斯波塔波夫, 谁至少走了 10 他最近六场比赛的回合数, 随着战斗的进展显然更加舒服.

 

在第七和第八处减速后, 年轻 (14-0-3, 6 科斯) 在令人印象深刻的第九个位置找到了另一个齿轮, 在所有评委的记分卡上赢得倒数第二轮. 但, 即使在他的角落发出紧急指示后, 杨无法将势头带入 10 并在所有三张记分卡上都输掉了最后一轮.

 

“我对这个决定非常不满意. 每次他打我, 我打了他两次,”波塔波夫说, 谁扔 315 与仅刺针相比 113 对于年轻. “我是更忙碌的战士. 我不知道该怎么打法官看. 我最多输了四轮.

 

“我以前从未抽过奖. 我感觉自己被骗了. 我很高兴能在美国打仗,但现在我感觉自己被欺骗了。”

 

战斗结束后, 圣. 路易斯本地人杨很失望,但知道他需要打更多拳.

 

“我觉得这是一场精彩的战斗, 但我应该做出决定,”杨说. “我每次打他都会伤害他. 我让他比我忙, 但就联系方式而言, 我觉得我打出了更有效的拳头. 这就是我的策略.

 

“我应该早点来. 这就是我的计划, 但我在战斗中放松了一点. 当我的教练告诉我让他离开那里时,我在第九轮上场.

 

“我绝对想要一场重赛. 我想再做一次。”

面对迄今为止最难对付的对手, 梅纳德地板 (31-1, 23 科斯) 贝尔纳多在第二轮接近尾声时职业生涯第一次获得一系列权利. 多米尼加选手贝尔纳多 (Bernardo) 击败计数并完成本轮比赛, 但他无法回答梅纳德的力量. 第三场不到一分钟, 梅纳尔右脚巨大, 敲贝尔纳多 (21-1, 15 科斯) 在他踏上画布之前就出来了.

 

“我发表了声明 今晚. 没有多少人知道我要参与的是谁, 但他们现在认识我了,”梅纳德说, 谁几乎落地了 50 他的力量,投篮的百分比. “我的速度, 力量和步法是不同的.

 

“我在擂台中央为他祈祷,希望他能健康地回到家人身边。”

 

贝尔纳多, 作为预防措施,他被担架从擂台上移走, 被送往附近的奥奈达医疗中心,在那里他清醒且反应灵敏.

 

在转播的开幕回合, 不败的轻量级康斯坦丁·贝杰纳鲁阿列克谢·祖博夫 令人信服的八回合一致判定取得了他职业生涯的第一场失利 77-74, 78-73 两次.

 

第七轮闪电击倒, 贝杰纳鲁 (11-0, 4 科斯) 从一开始就控制了战局. 这位摩尔多瓦人克服了四英寸身高的劣势, 多角度出击,掌控内外交流. 祖博夫 (10-1, 6 科斯) 从来没有进入节奏,也未能利用他在对抗活跃且运动能力强的左撇子时的伸展优势.

 

“他是一位优秀的古典拳击手, 但他太直了,无法调整,”贝杰纳鲁说. “击败他并不像看起来那么容易. 我调整了自己的风格来做到这一点,因为我知道这会让他犹豫. 我知道如果我不断地攻击他,他就会不知道该怎么办。”

 

祖博夫和贝尔纳多现在是 146 和 147 拳击手在未来发展系列赛中遭遇职业生涯首场失利.

纽约 (四月 13, 2016) – WBC羽量级冠军 加里·拉塞尔JR. (26-1, 15 科斯), 国会高地, MD。, and Irish contender 帕特里克·海兰 (31-1, 15 科斯), of Dublin, faced off at the final press conference 星期三 at Highline Ballroom in New York, as they approach 这个星期六的 Featherweight World Title fight live on 开演时间® from the Fox Theater in Foxwoods Resort Casino in Mashantucket, CT.
精彩表演拳击锦标赛® telecast begins live at 11 P.M. AND/8 P.M. PT on SHOWTIME with IBF Junior Lightweight World Championship clash between unbeaten Puerto Rican 何塞·佩德拉萨 (21-0, 12 科斯) 和强制性挑战者 Stephen Smith (23-1, 13 科斯), of Liverpool, 英国.
Here’s what the fighters had to say at 周三 final press conference.
GARY RUSSELL JR.
(On Patrick Hyland…)
“首先, 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. 他的身高, 他的长, but we can take him. We’re going to handle it.
(On returning from injury…)
“我感觉很好. 我准备好了; I put the work in at the gym. Like I said earlier, I got cussed out several times and sometimes I left the gym feeling like the worst fighter ever. 但, 现在, 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. 我对此很期待. 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. It’s amazing.
He definitely has the potential to be the best. Him as well as Antuanne, who is now on the 2016 国奥队. 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 四月 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 [Lomachenko] moves. He can lose his next 10 打架, 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 星期六 夜晚。”
(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 周六 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 周六 night and put it in by doing everything I’ve worked on to become champion.
何塞·佩德拉萨
(在训练营…)
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 周六…)
With my abilities, 例如 星期六, I will demonstrate that I am above Smith and that I am at the level of what I am, a champion. 总体, 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. 如 [菲利克斯] 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 英镑…)
I have always said that the less Puerto Ricans I fight, 更好. If it is the last option, I will fight with Puerto Ricans too but aside from that Rocky [马丁内斯] the world champ, there’s Francisco Vargas, [哈维尔] 运气, to name a few that are at the top of my list.
STEPHEN SMITH
(On his first time fighting in the U.S….)
“我很兴奋. 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)
“很好, 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
(在训练营…)
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 周六.”
(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 [安德烈] Klimov, he started out very well, put him under manners very quickly and had him nearly beat by the fourth round but [安德烈] 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.
(他的预测…)
“Stephen Smith. Possibly by knockout. 别, definitely by knockout.
