LAS VEGAS (Maio 15, 2015) – A highly anticipated showdown between former world champions Adrien “O Problema” Broner (30-1, 22 Kos) e “Altura De Comezar” Shawn Porter (25-1-1, 16 Kos) headlines the Premier Boxing Champions on NBC primetime event Sábado, Xuño 20 live from the MGM Grand Garden Arena.

“It’s time for AB on NBC and I can’t wait for the opportunity,” Dixo Broner. “This is a great fight that the fans wanted and I wanted. I’m going to come prepared and I’m going to put on a show. I’ve never lost at MGM Grand and I don’t plan on starting now. Porter is a strong guy but he’s never been in the ring with someone like me.”

“I feel like this fight is what the PBC is all about – bringing big fights to network TV and this is one of the biggest so far,” afirmou Porter. “I am excited to be the headliner against Adrien Broner. I’m always ready for a fight and facing Adrien is definitely going to be a challenge, but I’ve watched his career, even in the amateurs and I know he can be beat. I’m also looking forward to fighting at the MGM Grand Garden Arena. We moved to Las Vegas for opportunities like this and I would love to make MGM Grand my home.”

“I’m excited to have the chance to fight Roberto Garcia,” dixo Spence Jr. “He is a great fighter and I’m happy to have an opportunity to fight on this huge card. It is definitely the biggest opportunity of my career so far and I won’t disappoint.”

O Desoto, Texas born fighter was dominant in his PBC debut onAbril 11 como derrotou Samuel Vargas por nocaute quinta redonda.

Un veterano do deporte por case 15 anos, the 35-year-old Garcia has racked up nine straight victories and will look to extend that streak to 10 when he faces Spence Jr. enXuño 20. O Weslaco, Texas native has most recently put together wins over Victor Manuel Cayo, Breidis Prescott and a unanimous decision victory over James Stevenson on the April 24 Tarxeta PBC.
