SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING on CBS, प्रीमियर बॉक्सिंग चैंपियंस द्वारा प्रस्तुत किया गया, Live on CBS From Barclays Center In Brooklyn
न्यूयॉर्क (फ़रवरी. 15, 2017) – Sugar Ray Leonard vs. टॉमी Hearns. Felix Trinidad vs. ऑस्कर डी ला होया. बनाम फ्लोयड मेवेदर. मैनी पैक्युओ.
That is the elite company welterweight champions Danny Garcia and Keith Thurman will join when they meet in just the 10वेंunification in division history on शनिवार, मार्च 4 on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING on CBS, प्रीमियर बॉक्सिंग चैंपियंस द्वारा प्रस्तुत किया गया, बार्कलेज सेंटर से, ब्रुकलिन बॉक्सिंग का घर, live on CBS from 9-11 बजे. व/6-8 बजे. पं.
गार्सिया, the WBC titleholder, and Thurman, the WBA champion, will unify the exact same titles that Leonard (WBC) and Hearns (WBA) unified in their 1981 साल की लड़ाई.
And while Hearns was undefeated and Leonard entered with one loss, गार्सिया (33-0, 19 KOs) and Thurman (27-0, 22 KOs) will meet in just the third unification between अपराजित welterweights in boxing history, the प्रथम since Trinidad vs. De La Hoya in 1999, a bout billed as “The Fight of the Millennium.”
गार्सिया बनाम. Thurman will be broadcast in Primetime on CBS, the first unification on network television in any division in over two decades (नोट: Terry Norris vs. Paul Vaden at 154-pounds on Dec. 16, 1995 लोमड़ी पर). It’s also just the second primetime boxing presentation on the CBS Television Network in nearly 40 वर्षों.
While Danny Garcia and Keith Thurman are joining a who’s who of legendary 147-pounders, their showdown also presents current implications in boxing’s glamour division. With the retirement of pound-for-pound kingpin Floyd Mayweather, Garcia and Thurman, both just 28 वर्षों पुराना, meet with a chance to become the new face of the stacked 147-pound division, and perhaps earn a spot on the mythical pound-for-pound list.
इससे अधिक 80 percent of the total punches landed by Garcia are power shots, putting his high-octane power punch output nearly 10 percent higher than the welterweight average.
Keith Thurman ranks No. 4 amongst all current boxers in percentage of power punches landed, connecting at 48.2 percent according to Compubox. That’s more than 10 percent better than the welterweight average.
Both fighters are young, hungry and undefeated. Their bout on मार्च 4 is the quintessential career-defining fight. It is a chance for both to add to their growing legacy and potentially, ultimately, be forever linked with every boxing great in the coveted International Boxing Hall of Fame.
