Antonio Tarver looking through Steve Cunningham on historic run

 

 

Föstudagur nótt, Ágúst. 14 í Atlantic City, PBC á Spike TV

 

 

MIAMI (Ágúst 4, 2015) – Fimm tíma heimsmeistari Anthony “Magic Man” Tarver(31-6, 22 Kos) verður að leita í gegnum – ekki framhjá – fyrrum tveggja tíma IBF meistariSteve “USS” Cunningham (28-7, 13 Kos) á föstudaginn nótt, Ágúst. 14, í 12-umferð þungavigtar lokauppgjör þeirra í Prudential Center í Newark, New Jersey.

 

WBA #9 Tarver vs. IBF # 6 / WBC #14 Cunningham er helstu atburði á a Premier Boxing Champions röð sýna viðrun lifandi á Spike TV, sama net Tarver þjónar sem box lit hennar fréttaskýrandi.

 

Tarver er í leiðangur til að verða elsti þungavigtar meistari í heiminum í box sögu. The 46-ára gamall southpaw áttar hann þarf að komast yfir Cunningham í því skyni að fá titil veröld skot gegn Wladimir Klitschko eða Deontay Wilder.

 

“Ég virði Steve Cunningham,” Tarver útskýrði. “Ég er ekki að leita framhjá honum, Ég er að leita í gegnum hann. Ef ég þarf að fara í gegnum Wilder að fá Klitschko, svo vera það. Ég fæ að heimurinn þungavigtar titil og þegar ég sigra Klitschko það verður stærsta saga í íþróttum. En ég veit að ég mun ekki fá titil skot mitt nema ég fá með Cunningham.

 

The 'Magic Man’ er uppeldi 1000 bragðarefur í poka hans en það er bara að fara að taka einn að taka hann út. I’ve been working hard in training camp and he hasn’t been focused.Steve er solid varanlegur andstæðingi sem hefur sannað sig í þungavigtar deild, koma af náin tortími að margir hélt að hann vann. Ég hef próf berjast gaurinn sem þú getur ekki gert að hætta, svo þú þarft til að knýja hann út af því að hann er sannað hjarta hans og hugaður. Steve áhugasamir einnig vegna þess að hann veit hvað berja mig geta gert fyrir feril hans.

Á 46 og afi-til-að í næsta mánuði, Tarver áttar sig á að hann getur ekki verið sami Fighter hann var á níu berjast teygja á milli 2002-2006, þar sem hann var einn af bestu pund-fyrir-pund bardagamenn heims, átakanlegum Roy Jones, Jr.(sjá mynd til hægri) í tveimur af þremur berst, skipta par með Glen Johnson, sigraMontell Griffin, Eric Harding og Reggie Johnson, og tapa til Bernard Hopkins. Tarver, þó, telur að framangreind reynslu hans og yfirstíga svo margar baráttu verður nóg að taka hann aftur til the toppur af the box fjallinu.

 

I learned the fundamentals of boxing and that’s why I’m still here at 46,” Tarver fram. “Allan leikinn minn er byggt á blekkingum því, með the útlit af það, Ég ætla ekki að vera eins hratt, eins fljótur og sterkur, eins og sterkur, eða högg eins og harður eins og ég. Svo, sem gerir það erfitt að undirbúa sig fyrir bardagamaður eins og mig. I am sure Cunningham may have prepared for a physical war but has he prepare for the mental part of our fight? Hann verður að berjast í hring fullt af sviðum mínum, eitt rangt skref og, Kaboom!”

Tarver og höfuð þjálfari hans, Orlando Cuellar, hafa verið saman í heilt ár fyrir sem nemur þremur þjálfun vinnubúðir íhuga upphaflega berjast TARVER á hendur Jonathan Banks var frestað nokkrum mánuðum vegna brotnu hendi TARVER er, eftir glæsilega sjöunda umferð stöðvunar hans Banks síðasta desember í síðustu baráttu sinni.

 

“Við vitum hvert annað mun betri nú í skilmálar af hversu mikið á að ýta honum í búðunum og hvað á að búast við frá hvert öðru,” Cuellar sagði. “Hann kann að vera 46 en hann er aldrei verið að slá upp. Hringur kunnátta hans er burt the sjókort og hann er fróður. Mikil puncher Antonio og grimmur keppinautur. Hann er einmitt það sem ég spyr um hann í ræktina. Ég hef komist að því að hann þurfi ekki 160-200 umferðir af sparring fyrir baráttunni. Hann man allt frá slagsmálum sínum í móti svo mörg frábær bardagamenn, geyma upplýsingar í huga hans til að nota í baráttu sinni. Hann outthinks andstæðing sinn. Ég horfði á hann setja hlutina upp og setja það allt saman. Antonio er sérstakur bardagamaður, frábær greindur, a gola til að vinna með og færustu í hring. Ég er sæll að vera að vinna með honum.

 

“Cunningham er að fara að koma í og ​​þrýstið, en hann er aldrei barist hver eins og fimmti og greindur eins Antonio, sem getur skilið eða miði, blokk eða gegn. Hann hefur svo margar brellur upp ermi hans. Antonio er að fara að berjast við hraða sinn. Bara þegar Cunningham telur hann hefur Antonio þar sem hann vill hann, það er að fara að vera of seint og Antonio er að fara að knockout Cunningham. Tarver er mun skarpari puncher en fólk heldur. Eins Antonio segir, við erum ekki að leita fortíð Cunningham, við erum að leita fyrir hann.”

Miðar á atburði, sem byrja á bara $50, are on sale now at Bellator.com, Pechanga.com and the Pechanga Resort & Casino aðgöngumiðasala. Hurðir fyrir the atburður opinn á 4 p.m. PT staðartíma, og fyrsta keppni fer fram eina klukkustund síðar.

Í helstu atburði kvöldsins er, Melvin "The Young Assassin" Guillard (32-14-2, 2 NC) munu standa frammi Brandon "Cold Roll" Girtz (11-4). The co-headliner vilja lögun léttur aðgerð þegar Þú Awad (18-6) tekur á Patricky "Pitbull" Freire (13-6). Opnun helstu kort, Lorenzo Hood (9-2) mun gera sitt Bellator MMA frumraun gegn Raphael Butler (9-1-1).

Coenen will be returning to the Bellator MMA cage on the heels of third round rear-naked choke finish of Annalisa Bucci á Bellator 130. “Rumina” has been competing professionally since the year 2000 in promotions the likes of Strikeforce, Smackgirl, and Invicta Fighting Championships, winning a title under Bellator President Scott Coker in the process. The Dutch competitor wants nothing more than to eventually add a Bellator belt to her mantel in the near future.

Standing in the way will be former World Boxing Federation titlist Arlene Blencowe, who is also riding high after an impressive stoppage of “AJ” Jenkins at Bellator 137. Popularly known as “Angerfist,” the 32-year-old Australian has not suffered defeat since 2013 and has avoided the judges’ scorecards in four of her six professional victories. This tilt has 145-pound title implications written all over it.

In the second women’s featherweight matchup on the card, the aforementioned “A.J.” Jenkins will attempt to get back in the win column when she faces a surging Lissette Neri, who has started off her 2015 with an undefeated record.

After prominent roles on the main card of both Bellator 134 og Bellator 137, Millender will look to get back to his winning ways when he faces Jackson on August 28. “Curtious” hails from San Bernardino, Calif., and has an unquestionable amount of talent and size at his disposal and will play the role of spoiler when hisBellator MMA: Guillard vs. Girt” opponent makes his debut.

With the nickname “Stryker,” it goes without saying that Steven Ciaccio has an affinity for helping his opponents find the canvas. The Irvine, Calif., native has slept his foe in three out of four wins and will be taking a significant step up in competition when he makes his Bellator MMA debut on Ágúst. 28.

The fourth preliminary bout will take place in the welterweight division, when Johnny Cisneros meets Gabriel Miglioli. “The Tattooed Terror” will be competing for the third time under the Bellator MMA umbrella and will likely have plenty of hometown support from his fellow citizens in Laguna Nigel, Calif. Hagl frá Brasilíu, Miglioli has competed against the likes of Al Iaquinta and Rafael dos Anjos. “Biel” will be fighting for the second time in 2015.

PREMIER BOXING CHAMPIONS ON SPIKE MEDIA CONFERENCE CALL TRANSCRIPT

 

Kelly Swanson

Takk allir fyrir að hringja í. We’re excited today to be on the phone talking about a really excellent show headlined by Antonio Tarver versus Steve Cunningham also featuring the bout between Marco Huck and Krzysztof Glowacki. We are going to start with Huck and Glowacki.

 

This bout is promoted by DiBella Entertainment in association with Warriors Boxing and Huck Sports Promotions. I’m going to turn this call over to Lou DiBella to make the official introductions for the call.

 

Lou DiBella

Þakka þér Kelly. I’m thrilled to be promoting this terrific event at Prudential Center for another PBC on Spike show. The PBC on Spike shows have been terrific so far. It’s a pleasure to be working with the Prudential Center. Sean Saadeh the Executive Vice President of Entertainment and Programming and his entire staff of the Prudential Center have been a pleasure to work with so far. This is the first major event I’ve ever worked with them on and it’s been great so far.

 

Once again great to be working with Spike their Senior Vice-President of Sports and Multi-Platform Programming is Jon Slusser. Their whole staff is great I’ve been very impressed with what Spike has done and with their on-air team I think is one of the best young energetic broadcast teams in boxing right now. Interestingly Antonio Tarver is part of that broadcast and he will be competing in the main event in a heavyweight bout against Steve “U.S.S.” Cunningham in a bout that I think is going to be terrific for fans and a must win fight for both guys.

But before we get into the main event, tickets for event are priced at $150, $100, $70 og $45 not including service charges. They’re available at Ticketmaster.com or charged by phone at 1-800-745-3000 or at any Ticketmaster outlet. They can also be purchased Prudential Center’s box office. The Spike telecast and PBC off site telecast will begin at 9 pm both Eastern Time and Pacific Time.

 

The opening bout is the terrific world championship cruiserweight battle between Marco “Captain” Huck who is 38-2-1 með 26 KOs who’s defending his supremacy of the cruiserweight division who’s not only is he a champion but really at the moment he is the dominant cruiserweight in the world against Krzysztof Glowacki who is 24-0 með 15 Kos. This is the US debut for Glowacki and also for Huck. I think this is a really great bout for boxing fans. Huck is really the king of the cruiserweights right now.

 

He’s also campaigned at heavyweight where he’s been able to compete effectively and he’s got his hands full with an undefeated opponent. For both Krzysztof and Marco this is their first fight on US soil and is the first opportunity to be televised in front of a huge audience on a prime time American television.

 

I’d like to ask the first question of both of them and I’ll start with Krzysztof, how have you prepared for this opportunity and what does it mean for you to make this first major fight on US soil and tell us a little bit more about your feelings about fighting in America for the first time. Krzysztof first.

 

Krzysztof Glowacki

I am very happy to fight in the United States. I’m very thankful to my promoters who gave me the chance to do it but I also did it myself winning elimination fights. I just hope that on August 14 Ég ætla að vinna. I’m going to bring the title back to Poland and Poland will have the new World Champion. I am very motivated for this fight I trained a long time. There are no injuries I am completing healthy so a great motivation before August 14.

 

Marco Huck

I’m very happy this is my first time in America boxing. I’m very much looking forward to the fight in America. It’s always been one of my biggest ambitions and career goals to fight over here and I’ve achieved pretty much everything that is in Europe. I also fought some Americans before and now I want to come over here to show the American people my skills over here and I’m just really looking forward and I’m excited for August 14.

 

L. DiBella

Thank you so much and I think this is great for boxing fans we get to see a fighter with quality of Marco Huck on PBC on Spike. Krzysztof is an undefeated hungry guy looking to bring the belt back to Poland. So I have a special thanks to Krzysztof’s promoters Warriors Boxing and my friend Leon Margules and to all the people who are with Huck’s promotional company.

 

I’m going to open it up for a couple of questions for each guy. We’re going to limit it to just to a couple of questions for each of these guys before we get on to the main event. So if you could please open it up for questions from the press.

 

Q

Marco you’re coming in probably better known but again as is said this is your first fight in the United States you’re fighting a younger undefeated guy who is a southpaw. Tell us what you think your advantages are in this fight?

 

M. Huck

My biggest advantage of all is I am Marco Huck. Ég hef 13 title defenses against all the big names. I show them all what I am all about. He hasn’t really got that much experience I hear that he’s been talking himself up a bit lately. But a lot of people have done that before him and I will show him what the real deal actually is.

 

Q

Okay and question for Krzysztof similarly. This is in my opinion a step up for you fighting a championship fighter more experienced as he said. Tell us what you think your advantages are in this fight?

 

K. Glowacki

Marco just said that he basically has won everything, I think this is my strength because he’s got everything he wanted and I’m a more hungry a guy, a guy with bigger motivation versus the fighter who is basically achieved the maximum what he could achieve. So motivation and being hungry and hungrier will be a number one.

 

Q

Marco, I just wanted to know how long has it been in plan to come to the United States and why he felt now was the right time to make that happen?

 

M. Huck

I have been wanting to fight in the US for over ten years to be honest the problem was that I didn’t really have anyone by my side who could help me to achieve this dream. But now I found Lou DiBella whose experience is great and who can help me over here and help me with something that my former promoters weren’t able to do. I said already that I achieved everything in my career so far and now I get to achieve my debut in the US and I’m looking forward to this fight and for a long run over here in the United States.

 

Q

Is there any concern about having not fought in nearly a year?

 

M. Huck

There are no concerns whatsoever. I just started sparring and I actually was a bit surprised myself how good it was going and how my sparring partner was sent flying to the floor. I’m just really looking forward to getting back into the ring. I’m so motivated my motivation is bigger than ever before even in my previous fights even when I wasn’t that motivated I was still able to do what I have to do. I’m just looking forward to coming over here and do what I can do best. I really want to present myself to the American audience and I am convinced that I will have a popular style.

 

Q

Krzysztof is there any opponent that you feel has helped prepare you for this fight?

 

K. Glowacki

There’s only one Marco Huck so I did not fight anybody who is close to the style and the problems that Marco brings to the ring. But I fought very good fighters. Every fighter I fought was there and this is kind of verification for me if I am the guy to be our next World Champion and I hope I am and this is the time.

 

Q

Marco you fought Alexander Povetkin arguably the top two or three heavyweights in the world and it was a draw. A lot of people think you beat him. How long are you going to be staying a cruiserweight?

 

M. Huck

Everybody knows that I actually won the fight against Povetkin. Povetkin himself actually came to me after the fight and told me that he never wants to see me again. My ambition has always been to fight the best and also to fight the best in the heavyweight division. Looking at the division right now and just the fight of Wilder against Molina was actually embarrassing to be honest. But yes I want to go back to the heavyweight division in the future and take over there as I did in the cruiserweight division.

 

L. DiBella

Well thank you very much. Thanks very much gentlemen. One thing that I want to make clear by both fighters on this call, there is only one Marco Huck. He’s the dominant cruiserweight in the world he’s the guy that has the ability to challenge for a heavyweight championship and he’s going to be tested at the Prudential Center on PBC on Spike on August 14. I thank you both for joining us and look forward to seeing you in the states in the next few weeks. So thank you Marco thank you Krzysztof.

 

Our main event of the evening features two guys who are really well known to boxing fans Antonio “Magic Man” Tarver is 31-6 með 22 KOs and has worn a number of belts is now trying to fight his way to a shot at the heavyweight world championship and he has a very big obstacle in his way in Steve “U.S.S.” Cunningham. Steve’s record is 28-6 með 13 KOs but it’s a deceptive record because many of those seven losses should have gone the other way in my view.

 

Steve is a guy who’s one of the highest character people in all of boxing one of the most well respected by his peers by the press by the media by the fans because of the type of guy he is. He’s a family man, he’s a man of faith and he’s a guy that lays it all out in the ring. He’s never been in a bad fight and he’s never given anything but 110% and I’m proud to be able to promote a fight featuring Steve Cunningham. They will headline the evening in a 12-round heavyweight battle.

 

This is a match that both fighters must win. This is a must win fight if they’re going to continue at the highest levels of the heavyweight division Antonio and Steve don’t have a margin for error here. The winner will move on to a huge opportunity and the loser of this bout it’s a huge step back and maybe really the end of the line. So this is the kind of fight that figures to be a terrific match up and a must win fight that’s a recipe for a great fight.

 

Steve Cunningham

Thanks for having me, it’s a pleasure and honor to be here I’m working hard and going at it.

 

L. DiBella

Antonio Tarver is one of the biggest names in boxing for a long time. Antonio and I got to spend some time together because of the Rocky Balboa movie. He’s an actor and he’s a commentator for Spike now and one of the best in my view actually up and coming on air guys in boxing. Antonio I know you’re looking forward to this opportunity and you want that shot at a heavyweight title but you got to get through Mr. Cunningham. What do you have to say about that?

 

Antonio Tarver

Well it’s just like any fight I’ve had over the years. All of my fights have been huge fights. I can tell you I feel good going in. I’ve done the work. I haven’t underestimated Steve Cunningham at all. I have a great deal of respect for the man. His story with his daughter is really outstanding. But unfortunately we in the hurt business and this is boxing at the highest level and it’s all about opportunities.

 

There’s no fighter out there that has struggled and overcame like I have and it’s those struggles that are going to carry me through this fight and beyond. I hear his story and it’s heartfelt but the last three years of my life can’t nobody even comprehend. Það er það sem meistarar eru úr. I truly believe God gives his toughest test to his strongest warriors and I’ve been tested and I’ve proven that I can go through and I can endure.

 

So this fight is going to be about who wants it most and that’s the bottom line because we both know how to pull our hands that’s not a doubt. But it’s going to come down to who want it most. He has a good distance, he’s long, he’s rangy and got good movement. He’s an active fighter. But at the same time, the boxing match within this boxing match is going to be a fight.

 

When the fight slows down, I’m going to be right there. Ég ætla ekki að fara neitt. He’s going to have to knock me out to take this victory from me. That’s the only way I’m going out there.

 

That’s the only way I’m losing is if I get knocked out because I’m in great shape. Ég er tilbúin til að fara. I know what this fight means to me, and the time is now.

 

I wanted a big name guy so that I could really put my skill on display. Steve Cunningham gives me the opportunity. I know he wants this fight bad; we both do. There can only be one winner.

 

I’m bringing it August 14. Ég er tilbúin til að fara. my sparring is going well, my training camp is going well. I have a great trainer in Orlando Cuellar who’s on the line as we speak.

 

So we’re just ready for August 14, and we’re going to set the Prudential Center on fire. We know we’ve got some foreigners that are going to be coming over and they may bring a lot of fans. But we’re going to bring the show. Don’t miss the Magic Show on August 14.

 

Q

Anthony, there are a lot of rumors that you’re looking past Mr. Cunningham and to the next big fight. Can you please shed some light on that?

 

A. Tarver

No man, Ég er ekki, I’m a veteran. I’ve been around the game forever and a day. I’m not ever going to be that naïve to look past a credible fighter like Steve Cunningham. That would be dumb of me.

 

Ég er ekki að leita framhjá honum, but I’m a realist. I can see the future too. I’m a realist. I know what this fight means. Ég er ekki að leita framhjá honum. But I am looking through him. Straight through him. He’s transparent. I’m looking straight through Steve Cunningham; já. I’m not looking past him but I’m looking through him.

 

Q

Any predictions for this fight at all champ?

 

A. Tarver

You’re going to see a well-conditioned Magic Man doing what he do best and that’s winning. Það er það. I mean I’m not going to have no predictions. I mean I know I’ve got my hands full. I’m going to have to bite down on that mouthpiece. I’m going to have to pull that cup up and I’ve going to have to dig to get Steve Cunningham out of there, einn.

 

I’m ready for that. I’m preparing for that war, a battle of attrition; it’s going to be a hell of a fight.

 

I predict that this fight can be a candidate for fight of the year because I know what it’s going to have to take for me to get this victory. It’s going to have to take the old Magic Man. I’m going to have to show you glimpses of the old Magic Man with the things that I’m able to do in the right.

 

If it comes down to making adjustments, I’m going to be able to make those adjustments. If it comes down to getting inside and letting them rip, I’m going to be able to do that. If it comes down to making him miss and making him pay, I’m going to be able to do that.

 

I just believe in my skill and my ability man, even at the late age of 46. It’s just a blessing from God that I’m even still able to do it.

 

So I’m walking through my destiny knowing that it’s not an accident that I’m here today. It’s not an accident that I had to go through what I had to go through to get here.

 

This is a purpose and its destiny for me. Nothing is going to stop me. That’s bottom line. I can’t wait to see this shit unfold.

 

I’m ready you and excited that I’m back on national network TV; that I’m back at the top of the game and everybody is going to be able to see for themselves. After August 14 there won’t be no more doubt about what I can do and my capability at 46.

 

My skills haven’t eroded. My timing hasn’t eroded. My speed hasn’t eroded. I’m still here and that’s what I want to show the world on August 14, that they slept on the wrong man; tímabil.

 

Q

A lot of people have you as the underdog in this fight, and want to see a Tarver-Deontay Wilder fight? Can you stop all that from happening?

 

S. Cunningham

I’ve been getting counted out since I started challenging for a world title. I’ve been traveling to Europe fighting in Poland where nobody wants to go. Fighting in Germany, successfully defending my title numerous times, where nobody wants to go. South Africa, where nobody wants to go. I could care less about what anybody says. When I fought Marco Huck I was the five to one underdog and they threw the towel in on him in the last round. So I can care less about what anyone says. I’ve got to question myself to Antonio Tarver. He’s speaking about his respect for me and there is respect for fighters regardless before and after the fight.

 

But a lot of people who know fighters, they know that at a certain point in training camp a fighter is agitated, he’s ready to fight, and it’s time to fight. I’ve been at that point, so I’m ready to fight right now.

 

He’s trying to compare life woes. My daughter’s struggle and the struggle he said he went through in the past three years. Look dude, you can keep all the woes. You can take my daughter’s woes. You can take your woes. I don’t want them. Nobody wants those woes. We can’t compare that. I’m not into comparing life woes.

 

Now you say your life was hard in the past three years and nobody could understand; nobody could fathom. Have you been driving that Bentley you bought after the Green fight?

 

You’ve been driving in a Bentley. You understand what I’m saying. Have you made over $500,000 in the last three years? I haven’t. I don’t have a Bentley and beating you is going to get me that; you understand.

 

So don’t try to compare nothing that you’ve been through that will not stand up to a damn thing Steve Cunningham has been through in his whole career.

 

A. Tarver

With all due respect, I think you kind of misinterpreted what I was saying. I know we both got struggles and I respect that. And no, my struggles may not be personal like yours, family oriented, and I respect that too.

 

But what I’m saying that the struggle that I had to overcome to get back to where I’m at right now today. After I got suspended, I can just talk all day about it. Losing my job; losing the opportunity to commentate in the Olympics; that meant a lot to me.

 

S. Cunningham

But listen, we can go all day. We could trade back and forth all day like baseball cards. You had troubles; I had troubles.

 

A. Tarver

No income. I didn’t make no income.

 

S. Cunningham

We’re going to get in the ring and match skills. I don’t want to hear about your woes. I’m actually sick about talking about my daughter’s situation because it’s out there.

 

A. Tarver

But look dude, I’m just givingI’m giving you the utmost respect on that because I’d understand if it was my daughter, I understand that’s out of our control.

 

S. Cunningham

Well this is another question I have for you then. Where does all this utmost respect come from? A few years ago it was all, who are you. You’re nobody. Come on man, let’s keep it real. No Tarver, let’s keep it real.

 

A. Tarver

I keep it real.

 

S. Cunningham

I’m not one of these smart-ass, trash talkers who can run they mouth and get themselves into some money. I fight to get my money, you understand? So you’re that dude who runs his mouth so much. Þú ert að atvinnu munn-hlaupari.

 

Yes you’re a great fighter but then you’re also a professional mouth-runner. Ég er menntuð bardagamaður, tímabil. You understand? I’m not jumping in the ring on August 14 to beat the hell out of Antonio Tarver. Do you understand?

 

A. Tarver

Hey, that’s your mission. That’s everybody’s mission. But at the same time, I don’t understand where you’re coming from because I’ve been as quiet as I’ve ever been before a fight. I haven’t really been digging at you about nothing. I’m giving you the utmost respect because I know you’re a warrior. I know you’re coming to win, and I know I’ve got my hands full. That’s why I’m busting my ass in training camp.

 

If you ask me, I think you’re taking me lightly. Þú ert með útsýni mig. How in the hell you going to break camp and go to Vegas and commentate, like you’ve got it easy. You feel me? I wouldn’t break camp for you, but you going to break camp for me? Good luck August 14.

 

S. Cunningham

If you think me going to commentate for two days is breaking camp

 

A. Tarver

You got a problem. You’re out your rabbit ass mind. You going to fly to Vegas and think you going to beat me August 14, you crazy. You out your mind. You distracted.

 

S. Cunningham

I was ready to fight when they announced it. Do you understand me?

 

A. Tarver

You don’t know what’s coming at your ass August 14. You playing.

 

S. Cunningham

Distracted? There’s no such thing as a distraction.

 

A. Tarver

You playing with it. I ain’t Marco Huck. When I knocked Danny Green out, none of them clowns wanted to fight me. I ain’t Marco Huck.

 

S. Cunningham

When you start looking like him in the 12th, then think about that.

 

A. Tarver

Whatever. Hey, enjoy your weekend in Vegas, Bro. I’m going to be in camp. Putting on the fine touchesputting on the final touches to this great training camp I’ve had.

 

S. Cunningham

I’m going to enjoy it. I’m going to drink a beer. Man you going to be putting on final touches for a long time fat boy.

 

A. Tarver

Go to Vegas.

 

S. Cunningham

You need to be in camp for seven, eight, nine weeks.

 

A. Tarver

Ain’t nothing fat about me. Ain’t nothing fat about me, I’m just not a muscular toned guy. I knocked a lot of them out though. I’ve knocked a lot of muscular men out. Them the easiest muscles to box.

 

S. Cunningham

Ágúst 14. Það er það.

 

A. Tarver

Muscles ain’t never whipped me. I can’t believe you so irate.

 

S. Cunningham

I’ll see you August 14, my man.

 

A. Tarver

I ain’t even did nothing psychological. I ain’t even got to play the psychological game. Your mind is already gone. Your mind already blown. Just the thought of August 14, so it’s going to be easy pickings.

 

S. Cunningham

There’s no way in God’s green earth you could ever, ever attack me psychologically. I’m a war tested as a veteran of this country.

 

Q

I don’t know if you saw that fight, but tell me what you think at this point today, your advantages are over Steve given he’s proven himself in the heavyweight and other divisions.

 

A. Tarver

I wouldn’t say any advantage or anything. It’s just going to be two men in there and we’ve got to fight. I stand on my experience. I stand on everything I’ve accomplished in boxing. And I’m saying, whatever goes on in the fight, I’m going to figure it out between the 12 umferðir. That’s what I’m saying.

 

I’m going to figure it out and I’m going to do what I’ve got to do to get the win. That’s all I’m saying. I’ve got the utmost respect for Steve and I keep saying that. Man this is one fight I don’t even have to be mad or even have to have no personal feelings towards nobody. This is just a fight that we’re in. It’s a business.

 

I’m not taking this personal, but I’ve got my work to do because I’ve got big dreams.

 

Ain’t nobody going to out-box me, tímabil. The only way you’re going to beat me is to knock me out and that’s it. He got an opportunity to do that. Það er það. We’re going to fight and that’s the bottom line.

 

I ain’t got to cut no weight. I’m feeling strong. I don’t have the problems I had at light heavyweight. So I’m at my best and bringing it, tímabil.

 

I’ve got the best defense in the game so, how are you going to hit me? I see it coming a mile away. Come on man.

 

The bottom line, I’m gone have to close my eyes for this guy to hit me because he ain’t going to be able to hit me with that basic stuff. You ain’t fighting no average fighter, you fighting an exceptional fighter dude.

 

You ain’t faced nobody like me. I don’t care nothing about all them European you’ve fought. I’m the Magic Man. I’ve got a thousand tricks up my sleeve and you it ain’t gone take but one to get your ass out of there, tímabil.

 

S. Cunningham

You sound like you’re getting yourself up for the fight right now. Like you’re a hype man.

 

A. Tarver

I’m keeping it 100 with you Steve. I’m keeping it 100 with you boy.

 

S. Cunningham

Keep it 100 with me and let’s have this out.

 

A. Tarver

All the rest of the those guys you fought are basic robotic standup fighters.

 

Q

Speak on Tarver as you see the more fights that you watch, what the apparent weaknesses of Antonio Tarver?

 

S. Cunningham

The strength of Antonio Tarver is steroid use. Weakness is his mouth.

 

A. Tarver

Now that’s the most disrespectful thing. Because someone say you failed the test, that don’t mean nothing. You can go to GNC and get whatever you want. It may not be NFS certified.

 

But I spent my year. I did my time and that’s it. That’s behind me. That ain’t got nothing to do with right now. You looking for excuses already. Ain’t no steroids in my system bro. I don’t need no steroids. Never have, tímabil.

 

S. Cunningham

The question was for me, now let me get my time.

 

A. Tarver

So I just don’t understand why you trying to shoot low. I can get off the phone man. I’ll see you August 14. I ain’t got time to go through this with you.

 

S. Cunningham

Bye. Bye.

 

A. Tarver

I ain’t got time to do this with you. Because that stuff you talking is beneath me.

 

S. Cunningham

I’ll see you in a few weeks, Bro. See you.

 

A. Tarver

Beneath me.

 

S. Cunningham Bye, hang up.

 

Q

Tarver, one question for you big man. Nú, what’s the strengths and weaknesses of Mr. Cunningham?

 

A. Tarver

Man his weakness is me. He fighting me. That’s his weakness. He ain’t got no weakness as far as boxing is concerned. He’s a complete fighter. He has the heart, he has the durability; he’s a strong fighter. He’s going to be there to win but he’s fighting me. That’s the difference from everybody else he’s ever fought, he’s fighting me; tímabil. A hungry, determined, focused Magic Man.

 

S. Cunningham

But how you hungry and you driving Bentleys? How you hungry and you making over $500,000 a year? I ain’t see those numbers yet bro.

 

A. Tarver

I’m going to tell you because I’m not a prize fighter. I don’t fight for the money, I fight for pride. I fight for the glory of the game. It ain’t about no money. Ég græða peninga. It ain’t about that. It’s about my name, it’s about my history.

 

This Hall of Fame runthis Hall of Fame run that I want to put the final chapter on my career. Það er það. It’s bigger than money Steve. It’s bigger than money.

 

Q

Anthony, is there anyone in particular that you would want to face, higher than your ranking, if you beat Cunningham.

 

A. Tarver

I want to face Wilder and Klitschko. I ain’t got nothing else to prove man. I’m going to prove it August 14. They know who I am. I’ve got five championships to my name. I don’t have to prove nothing. They know who I am and they know when I’m ready to fight, I’m going to tough out for anybody.

 

So I ain’t got time to be fighting all these non-descript fighters. I ain’t worried about ranked above me because my name carry weight. My name carry weight and that’s it.

 

Whatever I do on August 14, my next goal is to become the Heavyweight Champion because it ain’t nobody on they resume that they’ve faced that can add up to my name and my credibility in the game of boxing.

 

Not none of them guys that ain’t never won anything in they whole career. So I rest my case. Ágúst 14 everybody can see where I’m at. After that I want to chop down one of these giants and that’s it, tímabil.

 

Q

Steve, can you tell the viewers honestly, what weaknesses do you see in Antonio Tarver that you think you can exploit on August 14.

 

S. Cunningham

The good thing about fighting a guy like Tarver is youif you think you see a weakness than you’re fooling yourself. Like I said before in the beginning, respect is there most definitely. But fighting is fighting and getting prepared for a fight is mental and physical.

 

So our banter back and forth, that’s what fighters do also. But there’s no way I would disrespect myself to sit there and say that’s a weakness we’re going to exploit on Tarver. We’re going to beat him. You understand what I’m saying?

 

I mean and his strengths, like he said, he’s five time world champion. He’s a Fall of Famer already. Hann er frábær bardagamaður. I think he’s a great fighter.

 

L. DiBella

I’ve got to say, I’ve got a lot of these calls. And the last 20 minutes or so were about the chippiest I’ve ever heard. So I think we’ve got a war ahead of us in the right on August 14, PBC on Spike, 9:00 Eastern Time; 9:00 Pacific Time. Miðar á atburði eru verðlagðar á $150, $100, $70, $45. Ticketmaster.com, Ticketmaster verslunum, Prudential Center.

 

Hope to see you in Jersey. If we don’t see you in Jersey, tune in to Spike and this is going to be a great card. Thanks everyone for joining us. See you on August 14.

Here is what the fighters and their trainers had to say Wednesday:

 

DANNY GARCIA

 

There’s no reason to go back in my career. The sky is the limit. Það er 147 for me now. I definitely feel a lot stronger.

 

I’m able to work on things now later in camp. Before I would just be coming in to lose weight. Now I’ve had great nutrition throughout camp. My legs are there and I’m faster. It’s all going to fall into place on Ágúst 1.

 

I’m not really concerned about Paulie, at this point in my career if I’m 110% prósent tilbúinn, I feel like I can adapt to anything and find a way to win.

 

I couldn’t cut the ring off the way I wanted to at 140. Now I have more agility and I can really corner people, use the jab and control the fight.

 

My weight is great. I’ve been really disciplined with what I eat. I’m staying sharp and building muscle. I believe I could have been a welterweight two years ago.

 

He’s from Brooklyn, I’m from Philly. The fight makes perfect sense. All the Italian fans, the Puerto Rican fans will be coming in to see a great fight. He’s a former 147-pound champion, það er að fara til vera a mikill bardagi.

 

There’s no pressure on me. I just want to go in there and be Danny Garcia, a smart Danny Garcia.

 

I feel like my style matches up great with anybody at 147. I’m ready for Paulie Malignaggi. I know he’s coming into his hometown. It’s a big fight for him so I just have to be completely ready.

 

“Ég flutti upp til 147 to fight the best fighters. Whatever the best fights are, that’s what I want.

 

STEVE CUNNINGHAM

 

When we were offered this fight, we took it right away. Not that I think It’s going to be easy, because no fight is easy until you go in there and make it look easy.

 

“Ég ætla að gera það sem ég geri. I put in the work in the gym and then I do work in the ring. The fans are going to enjoy what they see and we’re going to come out victorious.

 

All I know is my situation. My back is against the wall. I want to be the heavyweight world champion and I want to be great in the sport. Fighting guys like this and beating them is what makes me great. Even as a two-time champion, my back has always been against the wall.

 

There’s so much talent in Philadelphia, there has been for generations. You come to the city and see the stars. Philly is a rough city, it’s a tough hardcore city and you need to be cut from a special cloth to come out of the city and be successful.

 

People came together for a cause to try and help my family. The boxing community got us to Pittsburgh in time for my daughter Kennedy to get her heart transplant. Indebted doesn’t event match how we feel, I owe the boxing community everything and I wish I could pay them back double. What I can do is continue to stay in shape and prepare right and give everyone the fights that they want to see.

[On his 9-year-old daughter Kennedy’s heart transplant which took place seven months ago in Pittsburgh]

 

We’re going to take everything we’ve done in past camps and fine-tune it for this fight. Naazim has the plan and we’re going to execute it. It’s not just going to be outworking him, I’m a veteran too. I’ve been in the lion’s den and won.

 

I don’t underestimate anybody. I just prepare and we’re prepared for the best Antonio Tarver we’ve ever seen.

 

ANGEL GARCIA, Danny Garcia’s Father & Trainer

 

Danny’s going to be ready on Ágúst 1 to show the world that he’s ready. The power is there. He’s coming like a lion in the night. He’s going to eat everybody up at 147.

 

“Í lok dagsins, you gotta fight. He’s not going to win running around. We’re coming to smash you.

NAAZIM RICHARDSON, Cunningham’s Trainer

 

With Steve you have to gauge the camp differently. He comes into camp in such good shape; he lives it because he’s in this shape year round.

 

He’s in such good shape, he throws your timing off. There are things that you want to do, but you don’t have to because he’s there. He’s already looking very good in camp.
