"В 2015, we had eight fighters who appeared on ShoBox и пошли на победу мировых титулов. That means the average number of shows in which you’ll see a future world champion is one out of four,"Сказал Farhood.
“We saw some fantastic prospects last year, в том числе Эриксон Любин и Реджис Prograis and fresh faces like Джарретт Херд, Роб Брант—and a fighter who almost seems ready to fight for a title now—СергейДеревянченко. Given ShoBox’s 15-year history, I’m fully expecting that we will have more of the same in 2016.’’

“Both Brant and Perez won their most recent appearances on ShoBoxand both were impressive,'' Сказал Farhood. “Brant took a big step up and outpointed Луи Роуз in October and Perez pulled off the upset over the previously unbeaten Хуан Убальдо Кабрера в августе. So it makes all the sense in the world to match them against each other. На Jan. 22, we’re going to find out just how hot Rob Brant is.’’
Twenty-six-year-old Brant will be headlining his second consecutiveShoBox. В своем первом, he captured a hard-fought 10-round majority decision over Rose. Собирается 10 раундов в первый раз, Brant triumphed in an entertaining tight fight.
Перед включением в ноябре про 2010, Brant was a 2010 Национальный Золотые перчатки чемпиона по 178 фунтов и членом U.S. national boxing team pro. He currently trains in Dallas alongside top prospect Эррол Спенс младший.
“I’m really excited about this fight and I’ve been training hard for several weeks now,’’ Brant said. “I’ve got a very serious opponent in front of me. He rates about a 7.7 at everything, which doesn’t leave a whole lot of weaknesses. I’ve got to go back to pure boxing for this one. I have to be better in every department. It’s my second time headlining ShoBox and I plan on improving from the first time, so viewers can chart my progress. This is my time to show my growth.’’
Перес, who hails from a fighting family, has won four straight and nine of his last 10. He scored a surprising, рассториться, a 10-round unanimous decision over Cabrera (23-0 собирается в) в его последней прогулке. Перес, кто принял бой на уведомления неделю, outpointed the two-time Dominican Republic Olympian by the scores of 98-91 в два раза и 97-92.

“Camp is going very well. My management team has brought in top sparring with all undefeated boxers, одно существо Джулиан Уильямс. I’m excited that my trainer is allowing me to fight the majority, if not all of this fight, in the southpaw stance. I’m really a southpaw, but I have fought right-handed most of my career.”
Perez’ last loss came on a split eight-round decision to world title challenger Wilky Campfort в январе 2014. Вне кольца, Perez is a pharmacy technician at an Atlantic City hospital.

На Jan. 22, I’m going to put Donovan Dennis to sleep. I’m not being heard right now, so I have to make myself known. After this fight and what I do to Dennis, things will really, really start to pick up. I’m ready to destroy.’’
Besides being a hard hitter, Miller has good overall skills and movement for a big man whose weight fluctuates from fight to fight. He’s won his last four by knockout, all inside three rounds.
Known for an aggressive style, Miller is now fully focused on a fistic career, but he hails from an MMA and kickboxing background. В течение нескольких лет, он выступал в К-1, исторически первая в мире организация по кикбоксингу, и в два раза боролся легендарный Mirko “Cro Cop” Filipović.
“There seems to be a new energy and enthusiasm on the American heavyweight scene,'' Сказал Farhood. “Part of that is explained by the fall of a dominant champion in Владимир Кличко and part of it is explained by the emergence of Deontay Уайлдер, и даже Трэвис Кауффман. So for a young heavyweight like Jarrell Miller, the time seems to be ideal to secure TV exposure and make a name for himself.’’

This is an opportunity I will take advantage of and show everyone I’m ready to step up. I let my team concentrate on my opponents and pass me instructions. I just know I’ll be ready and able to stop any opponent.’’

A natural 140-pounder,Robinson won his initial 14 starts before losing on a fourth-round TKO to then-unbeaten Амир я на ShoBox in a bout he took on short notice on Feb. 21, 2014.
