НЬЮ-ЙОРК - Вересень 21, 2017 - Showtime спорту® will close out a banner year of world-class boxing with back-to-back Saturdays featuring heavyweight world championship fights live on SHOWTIME. The network announced today coverage of unified heavyweight world champion Anthony Joshua’s upcoming WBA and IBF world title defense against top-rated mandatory challenger Kubrat Pulev on Субота, Жовтень 28 жити на SHOWTIME from Principality Stadium in Cardiff, Уельс.

 

The Жовтень 28 SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast will be the first of two heavyweight world title fights airing live on SHOWTIME on consecutive Saturdays, with WBC World Champion Deontay Wilder set to defend his title against undefeated contender Luis Ortiz on Субота, Листопад 4. Both main event bouts will air live on SHOWTIME as the network concludes a robust 2017 boxing campaign that will have featured 22 world championship fights, 16 bouts matching fellow undefeated fighters, three world title unifications, three world title rematches and the emergence of three bright young stars (Еррол Спенс молодший, Gervonta Davis and David Benavidez) as they earned their first world titles.

 

With the addition of Joshua vs. Pulev, four of the consensus top-five heavyweights in the world will compete on SHOWTIME in consecutive weeks. Джошуа проти. Pulev and Wilder vs. Ortiz will be the ninth and 10ї heavyweight world championship bouts to air live on SHOWTIME in the last two years.

 

“There’s so much to be excited about in the sport of boxing, and it all comes to a fever pitch on consecutive Saturdays this fall on SHOWTIME,"Сказав Стівен Еспіноза, Executive Vice President and General Manager of SHOWTIME Sports. “This has been a great year for boxing. More specifically, it has been a great year for SHOWTIME boxing. There’s no better way to end it than with two major heavyweight world championship events. We are proud to be in business with the two biggest punchers in the sport, Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder, and the rest of the talented and hungry heavyweight challengers of today.”

 

Джошуа, the undefeated British superstar (19-0, 19 КО), exploded onto the world stage in April when he defeated heavyweight legend Wladimir Klitschko via a spectacular come-from-behind knockout. In the year’s leading Fight of the Year candidate, a bout that aired live on SHOWTIME, Joshua picked up the vacant WBA heavyweight title to go along with his IBF belt. Зараз, Joshua returns to take on the top-ranked IBF challenger in Pulev (25-1, 13 КО) на 70,000 seat national stadium in Wales.

 

Джошуа, 27, has remarkably knocked out all of his opponents since turning pro shortly after winning gold in the 2012 Олімпійські ігри. The Watford, England native won his first title with a second-round KO of defending IBF Heavyweight Champion Charles Martin in April 2016, earning a heavyweight belt in the fewest number of fights in more than 20 роки. He has since successfully defended the title three times – against Dominic Breazeale in June of 2016, Eric Molina in December and Klitschko in April.

 

Pulev, Софія, Bulgaria, will be making his second attempt at winning the IBF world championship, having lost to Klitschko in his first try in November 2014. Після того, his lone loss, Pulev quickly rebounded and became a two-time European champion with a win over Dereck Chisora. He also holds wins over two former world title foes of Klitschko in Samuel Peter and Kevin Johnson.

 

Джошуа проти. Pulev is promoted by Matchroom Sport. Fewer than 200 tickets remain on sale viawww.StubHub.co.uk priced at £300.

Michael Dutchover Dishes on Sparring Sessions with Oscar Valdez & Jessie Magdaleno

ПРЕС-РЕЛІЗ
ORANGE, Халіф. (Сім. 21, 2017) – Top junior lightweight prospect Майкл Датховер (5-0, 4 КО) marks his return to the ring в цю п'ятницю ніч проти Carlos Flores (4-5-1, 3 КО) in a featured 6-round bout on the “Нова кров” undercard.

The five-fight show, promoted by Thompson Boxing Promotions, takes place at the Doubletree Hotel in Ontario, Каліфорнія.

Квитки на “Нова кров” за ціною $40, $60, & $100 and are available for purchase by calling 714-935-0900, or visiting ThompsonBoxing.com.

Dutchover, an accomplished amateur who earned a bronze medal at the U.S. Olympic Trials in 2015 and a runner-up finish at the National Golden Gloves competition a year later, turned professional last year and already possesses a fan friendly style.

Thompson Boxing caught up the with Midland, Tex. native and got his take on relocating to the Los Angeles area, what it was like to spar with two world champions, and his outlook на п'ятницю боротьба.

Your training camp was unlike any other in that you sparred against world champions Oscar Valdez and Jessie Magdaleno, as well as blue-chip prospect Michael Conlan. What was it like going against such high-level talent?

Sparring against world champions elevates your game and boosts your confidence tremendously. I held my own the first few sessions with Oscar and Jessie and they called me back for other sessions. These guys expect solid work so I was glad that they brought me back. I’m gaining experience from some of the best so it’s awesome. It was also great sparring with Michael. With those three I was able to see different styles that will help me in my development.

Your opponent Carlos Flores has had an uneven career. How do you get up for a fight where you are the clear favorite?

You can’t think that every fight is going to be easy. If you’re not ready for a fight then anyone can make you look bad. This sport is unforgiving in that way. I’m going to be on my “A” game and it will show П'ятниця.”

Earlier this year you made the decision to relocate to the Los Angeles area and leave your hometown of Midland, Tex. What has been the toughest part of this move?

I’m doing what I love to do and that always involves sacrifices. The most difficult part is being away from friends and family and being far from home. I knew moving to Los Angeles was the right choice because if you want to get better, especially in the lower weight classes, this area is the place to be. On any given day you can spar with contenders and world champions so it’s been great for me.

How do you see Friday’s fight going down?

I can predict a solid win for me and my team. I’m going to let my punches go and just be active. I’ll work off the jab to open things up and I’m going to show an improved defense. I’m going to look the best I’ve looked so far. That much I know.

Dutchover is promoted by Banner Promotions and Thompson Boxing.

All five fights will be livestreamed on TB Presents: New Blood via our Facebook page and ThompsonBoxing.com.

The livestream starts at 8:00 p.m. PT / 11:00 p.m. І with Beto Duran as the blow-by-blow announcer and Steve Kim providing expert color commentary.

Ось те, що учасники прес-конференції повинен був сказати Середа:
Юніс Дортікос
I’m happy to be a part of this great event. У Суботу night you will see what I’m all about. Субота is going to be an explosive matchup and I will leave with my belt.
This is definitely going to be an exciting fight but I have to focus on my game plan and being at the very top of my game в суботу.
I’ve trained really hard for this fight. None of the storms in Miami have slowed me down at all. There will be no excuses on fight night.
To be a part of this tournament is truly an honor and I know that it’s going to put me at the top of this division. I’ve always believed in my abilities and now I can go prove myself against the best.
Winning the Muhammad Ali Trophy would mean so much to me because he is the fighter that everyone looks up to and tries to be like. Субота night is my first step toward that goal.
The fans in San Antonio are in for a great show. That’s on my mind every time I step into the ring and this is really a great opportunity to give the fans something memorable.
DMITRY KUDRYASHOV
I am excited to see all the fans в суботу ніч. We both have a lot of knockouts so this is going to be a great fight. У мене буде мій підняв руку в суботу.
This chance to become a world champion for the first time is something that I have worked towards for many years. This is my dream and the fact that it brings me closer to the Ali Trophy adds even more excitement.
I know that I have a very tough opponent in front of me. We’ve worked so hard to prepare my body and mind for 12 rounds of war. There is no way I can lose this fight.
My training camp has been very strong. I’ve been more focused than ever on winning this fight. I knew that I would need to have a great training camp to advance and leave here with the title.
I always train to deliver a knockout. That is my goal for myself. But I will definitely also be ready to go the full 12 раундів. I’m going to leave it all in the ring в суботу.
Being a part of this tournament brings me a lot of joy because it gives me the chance to fight the best. That is why I started boxing and now it is time for me to prove that I’m the best in the world.
КИТ Тапіа
I’m hyped to fight and do what I have to do. I have a really tough opponent and I respect him 100 відсотків. I’m ready to rock and roll and show off all my skills.
This is a great chance for me to prove that I am an elite fighter in this division. I’m going to keep working hard until I get my chance at the best.
We’ll see what happens when we step into the ring but it’ll be a lot of action for all of the fans. I’m ready to show off the ‘Machine Gunand get this win.
I want to shout out to Puerto Rico because they’re going through a lot right now with the storms and they’re always in my heart.
LATEEF KAYODE
“Я готовий до бою. У Суботу everyone is going to see a good show and a great fight with two warriors.
This fight is going to be fought hard all the way until the end. I am going to leave everything in the ring and get this victory any way that I can.
I’m ready to show that I still have what it takes to be the best in the world and I’m planning on getting this win в суботу.”
NONITO DONAIRE
I’m thankful to Ringstar Sports for believing in me. The second half of my career is going to be an explosion. It’s going to be an amazing ride and everyone is going to see great fights. You know I’ll get in there with anybody.
I think that people take things for granted in this life. I want to enjoy this time in my career and make the best of it. I know that I have a lot left in the tank.
I’m thrilled to be here in one of the best cities for boxing in the world. I trained in Las Vegas for this fight so I will be able to handle the heat all week.
I’m ready to destroy everybody in my path. That’s the game plan. I want to get back to that world title shot. I will happily fight anybody for that shot to reclaim my place at the top of the division.
This is very exciting for me. To be on the card with the World Boxing Super Series is a great honor for me. Having the best fighting the best is exciting for everyone and I’m glad to be here for it.
Річард Шафер, Голова & Генеральний директор Ringstar спорту
San Antonio is a fight town. In my opinion it is one of the best fight towns in the United States. The fans can remember countless great fights with awesome crowds and I think we will have that again в суботу.
I made a commitment to San Antonio and the fight fans here that if they showed up, I would bring them more fights. That’s what I hope will happen в суботу. If you show up, I will continue to bring big fights here.
The World Boxing Super Series cruiserweight tournament features eight fighters, including four world champions and four of the number one ranked challengers for each title. This shows the hunger that all of these fighters have to prove that they are the best in this division.
This is the second quarter-final matchup of the cruiserweights and I have to say that all of the major U.S. boxing media and around the world are calling Dorticos vs. Kudryashov the best fight of the tournament.
I am going to guarantee that в суботу ніч, you will see a knockout. That’s the only thing these two fighters know how to do. I don’t know who or when, but I’m very comfortable saying this will end in a knockout. These are two guys who know that this is their opportunity to elevate themselves to the forefront of this sport.
Nonito Donaire is a legend who doesn’t need much introduction. He’s one of the biggest names in the sport because he’s one of those guys you will never see a boring fight from. He always brings excitement and he always gives it his all.
The reserve match between Keith Tapia and Lateef Kayode is a very even matchup with two once-beaten fighters. You will see fireworks for this fantastic matchup as both men know that this win could get them into the WBSS.

Ось те, що учасники повинні були сказати, Середа:
Deontay Уайлдером
“Мені the best. I am the toughest heavyweight in the division. Мені the man in the division. I don’t care what anybody else has going on. You’ve got to come through me.
When I knock him out, I want my due respect. I’m the only American heavyweight champion of the world and I am the man. Nobody is stronger physically, розумово і духовно. They are all scared of me.
I’m the heavyweight in the division with real knockout power. I put grown men down easily. На Листопад 4, Ortiz is going down. Після того, you already know who is next. I’m ready to unify.
If he’s the boogeyman, I can’t wait to shine a light on him because the boogeyman is only effective at night. And we’re in New York so you already know what happened to King Kong in New York.
The game plan is the same as usual. We’re going to use my attributes. I’m going to set him up until the time comes. Ortiz has a great set of skills and I like his aggressive style. That’s one of the reasons I chose him. I wanted to beat him to prove that I am the man.
It definitely won’t go the distance. Зараз, I’m thinking about three rounds but come November 4th, it might be in the first round.
LUIS ORTIZ
I’m ready to go and excited for the fight. I want to get to Листопад 4 so I can do what I have to do.
Wilder does a lot of talking. He’s nervous and keeps forgetting the date of the fight. I think he took this fight because he has no choice and no one else to fight.
I think Wilder is going to run in this fight. He should be careful what he says before the fight, because I think he’s going to run from me.
Wilder should sign his death sentence. I’m very different than anybody else that he’s fought. I punch harder than anybody else. I’m going to teach him not to mess with Cubans.
Some skeptics are talking about my age, but look at Mayweather. I still have my speed and my quickness.
JAY приємно, Wilder’s Co-Manager and Trainer
Everything in camp has been going well. Last time we were here in New York we had a great crowd and it was a wonderful event. This will be an even bigger challenge. This is the fight the fans wanted and this is the fight we wanted.
Deontay has always wanted the biggest challenges. We won the belt in [Bermane] Stiverne’s hometown and we were ready to go to Russia to defend the belt. These are two guys in the division no one wants to fight, but they’ve decided to fight each other.
This is a great opportunity for Deontay to show who he is and where he is. It’s going to be well worth everyone’s time to be there at Barclays Center.
Лу Дібелла, Президент Дібелла Entertainment
There is nothing like a great heavyweight championship fight and on November 4th, a great champion is going to fight a great contender. This is a terrific fight.
This fight is happening because Deontay Wilder wants the world to know that he is afraid of no one, and that he’s prepared to fight anyone and he’s the best heavyweight in the world today. I could not be prouder of him for making this fight happen.
This is the toughest fight that Deontay Wilder could engage in right now. This is the most difficult opponent he possibly could fight.
Luis Ortiz is the boogeyman of this division. You haven’t heard anyone scream about fighting Luis Ortiz. A lot of people were shocked when they heard that Deontay Wilder wants to fight him. He not only wants to fight him, but he insisted upon it.
This isn’t a 43-year-old champion on his last legs in Luis Ortiz. This is a hungry beast that wants to beat Deontay Wilder. But Deontay is a champion. He’s not doing this for the money. A lot of people would think this is a dumb economic move. This is a legacy move. This is a move to prove who is the best. We’re not afraid of Anthony Joshua. If he was available on November 4th and wanted to fight, we’d fight him then.
Стівен Еспіноза, Executive VP & GM, Showtime спорту
This has been a really strong year for SHOWTIME Boxing. This will be our 23rd live boxing event on SHOWTIME this year. And they’ve been important, значущі бої. Not just a big name against a nobody.

Elite Prospect Ruben Villa Battles Veteran Ernesto Guerrero Friday Night in Ontario, ТАКИЙ ЯК

ПРЕС-РЕЛІЗ
ORANGE, Халіф. (Сім. 20, 2017) – Вілла Рубен (7-0, 4 КО), one of the featherweight division’s brightest young talents, takes the next step in his development by clashing with veteran Ернесто Герреро (26-19, 18 КО) in one of two highly anticipated match-ups на п'ятницю “Нова кров” undercard.

Villa, a southpaw fighting out of Salinas, Каліфорнія., turned professional last July and already has produced seven one-sided wins. His opponent for Friday, Mexico’s Guerrero, is no push over. Guerrero has won his last five fights, four of which ended in knockout fashion.

Guerrero’s a veteran so we’ve been extra serious in this camp,” said Villa. “My team believes that I can take him out. My team wouldn’t set me up against an opponent that I wouldn’t be able to handle so I feel ready for this challenge.

Villa, 20, loaded up on top-level sparring to help bridge the experience gap between him and Guerrero. He spent three weeks in Indio, Халіф. sparring against elite competition such as unbeaten, world title contender Joseph Diaz.

The way Diaz puts his punches together was really impressive,” said Villa, who is promoted by Banner Promotions and Thompson Boxing. “Це був великий досвід для мене. It’s not every day you get to spar with someone with that high of a skill level.

In addition to the knowledge learned from the Diaz sessions, Villa is attempting to sharpen his mental focus for his fight against Guerrero.

I need to be more intelligent in the ring,” Villa said. “I’ve been a little reckless listening to the crowd and taking unnecessary risks. We sparred against bigger guys during this training camp to help me stay disciplined.

Крім того, на “Нова кров” undercard, advanced junior lightweight prospect Майкл Датховер (5-0, 4 КО), who is a close friend and occasional sparring partner to Villa, бої Carlos Flores (4-5-1, 3 КО) in bout set for 6-rounds.

Like Villa, Dutchover comes from an outstanding amateur career and also shares the same promotional outfits in Banner Promotions and Thompson Boxing.

All five fights will be livestreamed on TB Presents: New Blood via Thompson Boxing Facebook page and ThompsonBoxing.com.

The livestream starts at 8:00 p.m. PT / 11:00 p.m. І with Beto Duran as the blow-by-blow announcer and Steve Kim providing expert color commentary.
