ERROL Spence JR.
“Þessi barátta þýðir allt fyrir mig. I still have a chip on my shoulder. I want to be the last man standing. I want to beat the top fighters in my division. Lamont is the one standing in front of me, so it’s fight time.
I think it’s going to turn into a war. A lot of people have thought this would be an easy fight for me. But if you follow Lamont Peterson, you know this will be tough. He’s always in great shape and has a lot of skills. IT might be a dog fight and that’s what I wanted. He’s the guy who wanted to fight and I said of course. It’s going to be a rugged fight. Later on in the fights, he always gets rough and stands toe-to-toe.
There might not be a lot of talking and bad blood between us, but you know that the two of us always give a great fight for the fans.
I had to wait for my title defense and then I had a lot of guys not answer the call for this fight. I have a belt and I still have to call these other guys out. Lamont Peterson answered the call like a real fighter.
In a perfect world I’d be unifying with Keith Thurman this year. I’m going to fight three times this year though. You don’t get time back. I’m ready to strike now.
I’m just excited to fight. Ég vil berjast. I can’t wait to be in front of those bright lights in front of the fans. Brooklyn is a great place to fight and my family from the area can come see me live. I can’t wait to display my skills.
A true champion can’t fight everybody who calls them out, it’s still a business. But a true champion fights other champions, especially when they’re available. You can’t avoid questions and try to delay a fight. You fight the next champion that’s available, that’s what a true champion does.
LAMONT PETERSON
When I got into boxing, I had goals. First I wanted to be a National Champion, then a world champion as a professional, but the ultimate goal is to be in the Hall of Fame. With that being my goal, I wouldn’t put myself in that conversation yet. With wins over a guy like Errol Spence and the other top welterweights, I think I’m right there in it. That’s my goal and I’ll give it my all to get there.
If you left it to me I’d fight every month. That’s how much I love the sport. I know a victory would help me get in the ring even more often. Sometimes if you lose at the top level, other top guys don’t want to take a chance against you. I can fix all of that this weekend
I don’t worry about any negativity. My resume is written in the history books. All I can do is respect the opinion of others and work hard to get this win.
I’m excited and looking forward to the skill level that’s going to be displayed this weekend. It’s going to be a rough fight for sure. But I look forward to the technique and skill level. Defense, offense and transitioning between the two. That’s the part of boxing that I love.
Errol even taking the Kell Brook fight was impressive to me. Most guys in his position take their time leading up to the first title shot, but he ended up fighting someone in his prime in his country. To will himself to that win was very impressive.
When you get to the big stages and those big fights, you have to win more than you lose. I think if I can win some big fights these next few years my career will be in a good place.
ROBERT Páska
I have no concerns fighting a southpaw. I made my last fight hard, but this time I’m going to use my reach, my feet and my speed to dominate.
I’m looking for a great performance. This is going to be the best Robert Easter the fans have ever seen. We prepared to dominate this fight.
Javier Fortuna is an accomplished fighter but I don’t know too much about him. I know what I came to do. I’m a world champion and everyone knows what I bring to the fight game. I won’t leave without my strap.
I’m ready to fight the best in this sport. I want to become the man at this weight and I know I have to beat the other champions to do that.
Boxing is all about showing you’re the best and fighting the best. I just want to fight these other champions in my weight class. I’m looking to stay healthy in 2018 and remain on top.
JAVIER FORTUNA
I have no excuses on Janúar 20. I hope he doesn’t either. I will be taking that title to the Dominican Republic for my fans. I’ve been dreaming about it and I will take it.
I have the style and the skills to beat Robert Easter. I know how to make sure his height does not affect me at all. Everyone will see it on fight night.
I’ve prepared myself very well. I have a plan to win every round. If he’s able to stand there, I’m going to break him down round by round.
I am fighting for more than just myself and that is why I’ll be successful. I am going to prove that I’m truly one of the top fighters in the sport.
Robert Easter is a fighter I respect, but I believe I can defeat anyone in front of me. If he takes me lightly, it will go even worse for him. I’ve been training hard to make sure I’m at my absolute best on fight night.
A win would be great for my country, my fans and my family. Winning this title is everything for me. That’s why I’m here and I will not be stopped.
DERRICK JAMES, Spence er Trainer
I started training Errol about nine years ago but I never really knew just how special he was until about a year or so into our training. I thought Olympics were definitely possible, because I didn’t want to look too far ahead. Now that we’re here, I think he can beat any of the top guys. I want him to be undisputed welterweight champion just like he wants to be.
I never worry about comparing Errol to other guys in the sport. He’s a hard puncher who breaks ribs and breaks faces. The longer the fight goes, the more pain he inflicts. I’ve never seen anybody who punches that hard.
I think Lamont knew when he moved up to welterweight that this fight would be a possibility. It’s time for us to go to work because I know Lamont and Barry Hunter are working on a game plan. They have a great team and I know Lamont will be ready for what we bring.
BARRY HUNTER, Trainer Peterson er
We stay in the gym all the time. We didn’t have to deal with the weight monster this camp. Weight issue can really derail a camp leading up to a fight of this magnitude. We didn’t have to deal with any of that.
There are several different things in Errol’s arsenal that I think we can exploit. Errol will make adjustments though, so I think strategy will be a key in this fight.
Lamont has always been a coach’s dream. He’s the type of athlete that you would love to coach. He does everything a coach asks of him. He will train until he passes out. All he wants is to work hard and compete.
LOU DIBELLA, Forseti DiBella Skemmtun
This is a great night for boxing. The first January date of the year drums up a lot of excitement and we expect a great turnout á laugardag nótt á Barclays Center. It’s going to be a great crowd and an exciting night from top to bottom.
“Errol Spence Jr. is one of the best young fighters in the world testing himself against another great fighter in Lamont Peterson It’s the best fighting the best. Lamont Peterson is a guy with a tremendous resume. If anybody thinks Errol is going to take Lamont lightly, they’re mistaken and he would be too.
Both of these main event fighters are lucky to have trainers who are real teachers. They are old school and two of the best. Derrick James and Barry Hunter know the game inside and out.
Robert Easter is a beast, he’s got reach, power and boxing ability. He’s facing a guy in Javier Fortuna who is a confident former world champion. Javier has been talking a big game. He’s talking about knockouts. You want to see a guy come into a fight like this with that kind of confidence.
This year in boxing is starting out just like last year started, at Barclays Center with a great, even matchup like Badou Jack vs. James DeGale last year.
STEPHEN Espinoza, Executive Vice President & General Manager, Showtime Sports
In terms of representing the sport, you don’t get any better than Errol Spence Jr. and Lamont Peterson. The professionalism of these guys is unmatched and they represent the best of the sport. I’m proud to have them on the network.
You can’t play boxing. You have to be dedicated and passionate. Those values are going to be reflected in the ring á laugardag.
This is a special fight. These are the best in the sport. They’re both top 10 krakkar. Errol Spence Jr. has grown up on SHOWTIME.
He made his pro debut on ShoBox and won his first world title on SHOWTIME. This is Lamont’s eighth appearance on SHOWTIME and he has one of the strongest resumes in the sport.
Robert Easter and Javier Fortuna is another matchup of top 10 krakkar. What we’re doing here is special. This isn’t just another network doing boxing, this is the cream of the crop.
BRETT YORMARK, CEO of Brooklyn Sports & Entertainment
I’m really excited about Laugardagur nótt. We’ve been very fortunate to host the first big event of the year. There’s an appetite to get back into the game and we’re happy to be hosting it.
I want to welcome back Errol and Lamont to Barclays Center. Both have been there before and we’re thrilled to have you back. We’re pleased that Robert has finally decided to take his show to Barclays Center and give the fans a performance. Last time Javier won at Barclays Center he won his world title and we’re happy to have him back.
We’re going to create something great here in Brooklyn and it continues á laugardag night at Barclays Center.

LAMONT PETERSON
“Mér finnst frábært. Ég er nú þegar nálægt því að þyngd. Ég er ánægður og borða allt að fimm sinnum á dag. Mér finnst sterkur og ég er tilbúinn fyrir þennan bardaga.
“Ég verð að líta á þetta sem í raun bara annar stór baráttunni. Þegar þú ert á the toppur, þú reynir ekki að gera of mikið af hverju berjast. Við vitum hvað er í húfi. Ég veit að þegar ég halda það einfalt, það er þegar ég virkar best.
“Núna líður betur en nokkru sinni fyrr líkami minn. Ég er ánægð með allt sem er farið á í búðunum og ég held að þú getur séð það í líkama minn.
“Ég hef alltaf æft erfitt frá fyrsta degi sem ég kom hingað sem barn. Sem hefur verið dreypt í mér þar unga aldri og það er bar mig um feril minn.
“Allt sem ég geri er að D.C. Ég er að reyna að fá eins mikið viðurkenningu fyrir þetta svæði er besta leiðin sem ég get. Það er það sem við öll leitast við í þessari ræktina. Þetta er stærsta einn sem hefur verið á dagskrá um hríð og ég er tilbúin til að koma með það heim.
“Það verður auðveldara og auðveldara því fleiri Championship berst ég er í. Ég var í formi fyrir þeim öllum, en ég setti örugglega meiri þrýsting á mig þegar ég var ungur. Ég hef bætt í hvert skipti og nú líður eins og ég sé í raun á fullkomna stað á ferlinum.”
ANTHONY PETERSON
“Ég hef til að gera yfirlýsingu. Ég finn aldrei ánægð með ákvörðun. Ég held að það er gott vegna þess að ég þarf að vera sérstakur undir björtu ljósin.
“Allir vita að ég vil fara að líkamanum. Þú veist að ég ætla að láta hann vinna svo þú getur litið út fyrir mig að brjóta andstæðinginn mína niður á Janúar 20.
“Ég hef verið að sparring með ýmsum reynda bardagamenn á síðasta ári og þeir hafa hjálpað mér út, jafnvel meðan ég hef ekki haft berjast. Ring ryð er allt andlegt. Það er komið að þér að setja verkið í.
“Ég hef ekki fengið slagsmál sem ég vil, en ég ætla alltaf standa við leik minn og standa við iðn mína. Ég veit að ef ég þrauka, það mun virka fyrir mig.
“Ég veit að ég elska þessa íþrótt. Ég veit að á endanum mun ég vera heimsmeistari. Ég trúi á framtíð mína og ég hlakka til stóru átök.
“Það er hvetjandi að horfa Lamont gera hlutur hans og ná árangri. Hann er að fara að slá Errol Spence, jafnvel þótt fólk trúi því ekki. Ég held að hann er að fara að hugsa um viðskipti.”
BARRY HUNTER, Trainer Peterson er
“Það hefur verið langur mala í búðunum fyrir þessar krakkar. Þegar ég hugsa til baka um hve lengi við höfum verið í þessari ferð, Ég er mjög stoltur af þeim. Þau voru 9 og 10 þegar þeir komu fyrst inn í ræktina.
“Við höfum ekki þyngd skrímsli til að takast á við að berjast á veltivigtar. Lamont er á frábærum stað andlega og líkamlega. Ég hlakka til að sprengiefni berjast.
“Þegar þú horfir á Spence, Brook baráttunni, snemma á Brook hafði mikla velgengni. Niður teygja Errol leggja vilja hans og braut Brook niður. Ég veit Errol vel og ég hef þjálfað hann. Hann hefur sterka vilja. Hann er ekki mikill á einu svæði, En hann er góður í fullt af sviðum. Þetta er annars konar strákur hann er frammi. Hjarta er eitthvað Lamont er hvergi nærri stutt á. Ég held að þetta gæti byrjað á taktísk, og þá snúa í stríð.
“Starf mitt er að fara í það með hluta af áætlun, en það er alltaf um leiðréttingar fyrir okkur. Hvað Errol koma að borðinu, Við munum reikna það út og setja allt í gang.
“Þessi síðustu viku er mikið af leiknum áætlun og andlega undirbúnings. A einhver fjöldi af bardagamenn þjálfa ekki hugann. Þú þarft að þjálfa hugann jafnvel meira svo en í líkamanum. Við verðum að vera tilbúin fyrir hvert atburðarás.
“Ég held að ef Anthony fer í það og gerir starf sitt að það eru nokkrar lausar titlar á 140 pund og það er lag fyrir okkur. Við viljum fá ól um lendar hans og við munum standa frammi fyrir neinum að fá það.
“Lamont, ásamt Anthony, Gary Russell Jr., Jarrett Hurd og Gervonta Davis, hefur verið að halda niðri box á þessu sviði í langan tíma. Það væri mikið að koma þessu Titill Heim. There ert a einhver fjöldi af ungu Lamont Petersons á þessu sviði sem vilja ná þessu stigi. Það væri leiðarljós ljós skínandi niður og sýna þessu fólki leið.”

Hér er það sem Spence og þjálfari hans, Derrick James, þurfti að segja Þriðjudagur úr R&R Boxing Club í Dallas:
ERROL Spence JR.
“Allir sem hafa séð mig berjast fyrir veit að það mun ekki vera leiðinlegur bardagi. Jafnvel ef það er einhliða, það er alltaf að fara að vera aðgerð pakkað. Janúar 20 er að fara til vera a gríðarstór berjast og ég ætla að setja á a mikill árangur. Ég ætla að ráða.
“Verja titil minn í Brooklyn verður sérstakur. Ég hef fjölskyldu í New York líka svo það þýðir mikið að ég ætla að vera fær um að verja á Barclays Center. New York er box borg svo þeir raunverulega þakka meistarar og vita íþrótt.
“Ég er spenntur að vera að berjast við mann eins Lamont Peterson. Ég ætla ekki að berjast reglulega engum nafn bardagamaður. Hann er að fara að koma best út úr mér því hann er sannur bardagamaður. Það gerir alla reynslu enn betri.
“Efstu í íþróttum er í raun upp fyrir grípa núna og ég er að koma að því. Mér er alveg sama hver ég þarf að takast eða þar, Ég ætla að vera Last Man Standing. Þess vegna höfum við öll fá inn í þessa íþrótt. Ég er mjög öruggur í sjálfum mér.
“Lamont og ég bæði hafa stór hjörtu og ég held að allir geti séð það í hringnum. Við erum bæði snjöll bardagamenn þannig að það gæti verið smá tilfinningu út áður en við fáum að fara. En ég búast við það til að vera Dogfight.
“Þetta samfélag í Dallas er mjög mikilvægt fyrir mig. Þegar ég var
alast upp hér voru engin fagleg Boxer frá hér að ég gæti litið á sem fyrirmynd. Þegar þú hefur úrræði til að gefa til baka, það er mikilvægt að gera það. Ég elska að vera í ræktinni og aðstoða virkilega ungu krakkar og gefa þeim eitthvað að stefna að til.”
DERRICK JAMES, Spence er Trainer
“Errol lítur mjög vel út í þjálfun. Hann hefur mikla áherslu. Hann er mjög smáatriði stilla og fært inn á að vera besta útgáfan af sjálfum sér. Ákvörðunin á andliti hans lætur mig vita að hann vilji fara ekki steinn unturned og ganga úr skugga um að allt gengur leið sína á Fight Night. Við vinna baráttuna í ræktina ekki í hring.
“Errol hefur að halda þetta hugarfar að fara inn í þessari baráttu og víðar, og hann veit að. Aðlaðandi einn titil er ekki það sem hann vill. Hann vill vera óumdeildur welterweight meistari. Hann er mjög markviss og ég tel að hann muni ná því markmiði. Hann tekur ekki nei fyrir svar. Hann er að fara að ýta sér til takmörk og ná markmiðum sínum.
“Lamont Peterson er mjög fyndinn og greindur í hringnum. Hann er sterkur strákur líka. Hann færir það andlega æðruleysi sem þú þarft til að ná árangri. Við höfum til að koma til þessa baráttu 100 prósent og einbeitt allan tímann. Ef við gerum ekki, við getur komið upp stutt.
“Ég verð að vera bestu útgáfu af sjálfri mér líka. Ég reyni að fá betri og betri í hvert berjast og á hverjum degi í ræktina. Ég veit að ég þarf að vera á toppur af öllu sem gæti gerst. Barry Hunter er sterkur, greindur þjálfari sem koma mikið að borðinu. Lamont hefur frábært lið. Það er ánægjulegt og heiður að takast þá í hringnum.”

Hér er það sem bardagamenn hafði að segja um janúar þeirra 20 matchups og fleira:
ROBERT Páska (20-0, 14 Kos) – Gerð þriðja varnir IBF Léttur heimsmeistaratitilinn
“Þessi bardagi getur ákveðið að setja góða tón fyrir mig í 2018. Ég ætla að vera að gera yfirlýsingu þessari baráttu. Síðustu þrjú berst mínar sem ég hef ekki fengið knockout. Ég ætla að vera að gefa aðdáendum mínum og berjast fans góð sýning.
“Ég ætla að nota seilingar og lengd og eyðileggja þessa strákur frá úti. Allt sem ferill minn sem ég hef verið að berjast styttri krakkar. Sérhver stutt strákur er ekki að berjast við það sama. En þú færð í hring og þú finnur hann út og gera breytingar.
“Það er ekkert í lagi að ég þarf að undirbúa sig fyrir með Fortuna. Ég tek hvert berjast sama. Sérhver bardagamaður berst öðruvísi þannig að þú færð í það, finnst hann út og gera breytingar sem þú ferð með. Ég hef ekki áhyggjur af honum að vera southpaw. Ég hef staðið frammi nóg af lefties á ferli mínum og í áhugamenn. Það er ekkert vandamál á öllum.
“Ég held að það sem gerir mig meira hættulegri Boxer í þessari baráttu er að hafa hæð sem ég geri og gata kraft og hraða og hugarfari sem. hugarfari mitt er að ég ætla ekki að fara í það að leika í kring með honum. Ég er tilbúinn til að eyða.
“Markmið mín fyrir 2018 eru að ná fleiri titla og fá sameiningu lota. Við áttum nokkur meistarar í þyngd flokki, en það virðist sem enginn er tilbúinn að berjast við aðra meistarar. Við erum tilbúin til að gera hvað sem það tekur, berjast hver hefur titla. Við erum tilbúin til að handtaka alla þá titla þegar aðrir krakkar eru tilbúnir til að skrá þig fyrir átök.”
JAVIER FORTUNA (33-1-1, 23 Kos) – Fyrrum Super Featherweight heimsmeistari
“Undirbúningur minn fyrir þessari baráttu er að fara mjög vel. Ég hef verið að vinna í Dóminíska lýðveldinu, en ég hef komið aftur til Boston til að ljúka þjálfun minni. Núna erum við á 75% og að krækja í 100%. Ég mun vera alveg tilbúinn þegar það er kominn tími til að berjast. Undirbúningur minn og stefna mín gera mig hættulegri strákur.
“Ég sé þetta eins og engin önnur berjast sem ég hef haft áður, vegna þess að hvert andstæðingurinn er öðruvísi. Allir hafi eigin sess þeirra á þessu stigi, eitthvað sem virkar fyrir þá. sess hans er að hann er hávaxinn. Hann notar það til framdráttar. En það er ekkert sem ég get ekki sigrast. Ég hef barist á hæð krakkar áður.
“Ég vil frekar andstæðinga mína til að vera hærri. Það spilar inn í það sem ég er fær um að gera. Ég hef aldrei haft vandamál með hærri andstæðinga. Abner Cotto (5-10) er eitt af stóru krakkar sem ég barðist. Ég barðist í Chicago og setja á a mikill árangur. (Fortuna skorað 5th umferð KO gegn Cotto)
“Markmið mitt fyrir 2018 er að berjast við efstu Elite bardagamenn í þyngd bekknum mínum, og ég er að reyna að verða nefnd sem einn af þeim bestu í íþróttinni. Ég vil virkilega að vinna annan heiminum titil í öðru þyngd bekknum. Það væri stærsta stund svo langt á mínum ferli til að fá annað heimsmeistaratitilinn.”
MARCUS BROWNE (20-0, 15 Kos) – Top 10 sæti á 175 £. (WBC, WBO, WBA & IBF)
“Andstæðingurinn minn (Francy Ntetu, 17-1, 4 Kos) lítur út eins og a varanlegur, töffari. Ég sé þessi bardagi sé mjög spennandi fyrir aðdáendur eins lengi og það endist. Ég sá smá borði á honum. Ég veit að hann kemur alltaf í þjórfé-toppur lögun, og ég heyri hann er samræmi í frammistöðu hans í hringnum. I just know I’m going to have to be sharp on Jan. 20.
“Það er alltaf heiður að berjast hér heima og á Barclays Center. Það er sérstakt að vera fær um að framkvæma í framan af þessum aðdáendur og ég get ekki beðið eftir því að setja á góðum árangri aðdraganda Spence vs. Peterson berjast.
“Þessi bardagi gæti sett mig í stöðu sem ég þarf að vera í til að berjast fyrir titli heimsins. Ég get ekki verið ábótavant á nokkurn hátt. Ég verð að koma út sterk með miklum árangri frá upphafi til enda og fara eflaust í það.
“Fyrir 2018, Ég vil verða heimsmeistari. Ég er ákveðinn Tomake það gerast á þessu ári. That vision starts on Jan. 20 at Barclays Center against Francy Ntetu.
Francy NTETU (17-1, 4 Kos) – Barðist David Benavidez á Barclays Center í júní 2015
I know Marcus Browne is probably taking me lightly and thinks he will simply go through me. Ég vona það er málið, vegna þess að það er að fara að vera áfall fyrir hann, aðdáendur og hans lið þegar ég tek hann blettur í lína fyrir a titli. Ég vil að takast Eleider Alvarez í heimabæ okkar Montreal eftir að ég fá þetta vinna.
“Fyrri berjast minn á Barclays Center gegn núverandi WBC meistari David Benavidez var augljóslega mjög slæmt ákvörðun dómarans að stöðva í baráttunni, sérstaklega þegar ég var að vinna umferð og Benavidez voru hægja. Ég var að fá sterkari á meðan hann var að fá sterkari.
“Ég hef aldrei verið sárt og aldrei dottið í baráttunni. Ég vil Marcus að skora sjálfur og sjá hvort hann geti gert eitthvað sem enginn annar hefur. Ég er spenntur að vera í baráttunni af þessari stærðargráðu. Marcus, það er kominn tími fyrir okkur að gefa stuðningsmönnunum það sem þeir vilja!”
ADAM Kownacka (16-0, 13 Kos) – Upphaflega frá Póllandi & berjast af Brooklyn
“Þessi barátta er að fara að vera annað skref í átt að verða meistari. Ég veit að ég er að fara að vinna mjög hart og sanna að ég er að halda áfram að byggja á sigri mínum gagnvart Szpilka. Frá myndband sem ég hef séð á Iago Kiladze (26-1, 18 Kos), Hann flytur mikið, þannig að ég ætla að þurfa að skera burt hringinn. Hvað sem hann færir hringinn, Ég hef svarið fyrir.
“Þrjú ár í röð núna sem ég hef verið að berjast í janúar. Ég elska að byrja á því ári sterk. Konan mín og ég reyndar byrjaði hefð “Kownacki Family Run” á miðnætti on New Year’s Eve. Þar sem ég er alltaf að undirbúa að berjast um áramótin, við mynstrağur við might eins og heilbrigður að hafa gaman á meðan við vinnum. Svo, Við munum hafa sumir vinir koma fram og hlaupa nokkra kílómetra með okkur um hverfið á flugelda. Það er gaman og hjálpar að fá mér tilbúinn.
“Á endanum, Ég er að leita að verða bestur í þungavigtar deild. The endir takmark fyrir þetta ár er að verða heimsmeistari. En fyrsta skrefið er að taka Iago Kiladze mjög alvarlega. I can’t look past Janúar 20 núna. Ég hafa a sterkur andstæðingur sem vilja áskorun og gera mig að betri bardagamaður í the langur hlaupa.”
Iago KILADZE, Þriðji bardagi þar færa allt til þungavigtar deild (2-0, 2 Kos)
I feel great and my training has been terrific. Þjálfari minn er Freddie Roach nú. Ég sparred með (IBF Cruiserweight Champion) Murat Gassiev þrisvar sinnum undanfarið sem er mikill undirbúningur fyrir mig. I believe I can knockout Kownacki but if I have to go the distance I’m prepared for that. Hvort heldur, Ég ætla að sigra. Ég finn að ég er meira þjálfaður bardagamaður og það mun sýna í hringnum.
“Þetta er frábær berjast fyrir feril minn og frábær byrjun fyrir 2018. I know that if I win this fight I’ll be that much closer to a world title opportunity.
“Markmið mitt er að vera heimsmeistari í lok 2018. I want to continue improving and learning under Freddie and with his guidance I’m confident of success.

LONG ISLAND, NY (Júlí 16, 2017) – Once-beaten Jamal James (21-1, 9 Kos) scored a unanimous decision victory over former title challenger Jo Jo Dan (36-5, 19 Kos) íPremier Boxing Champions á FS1 og FOX Sports aðgerðLaugardagur night from thenewly-renovated NYCB LIVE, home of the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum.
Standandi 6'2″, James was intent on using his length to move around Dan and deliver jabs and power punches off of it it. He had success snapping the head back of Dan throughout the early rounds and built up a lead on the scorecards.
My range was working perfectly,” said James. “I knew he was going to be tough and he was a little tougher than I thought.
Dan got himself back into the fight after focusing on the body throughout the early rounds and was able to break through Jamesguard to land effectively. The southpaw temporarily rocked James late in the sixth round and was able to pick up some momentum for the following rounds.
I was catching him with nice clean shots, but he kept coming,” said James. “I knew he was going to keep coming forward. He started moving his head and made me miss a couple times. I was trying to avoid a big shot but he did get me with some body shots.
Hins, James was able to stick to his game plan and had success over the final couple of rounds while fighting Dan in the trenches. Eftir 10 rounds of welterweight action, the judges scored the bout 99-91-, 98-92 og 97-93 all for James.
Fighting on the undercard of his older brother Omar, Brandon Figueroa (13-0, 8 Kos) used high volume punching to dominate Fatiou Fassinou (28-7-3, 15 Kos) on his way to a unanimous decision victory in their junior featherweight contest.
I knew that he was a flashy fighter that was going to have a lot of speed and movement,” Said Figueroa. “I tried to attack the body. He was a really tough opponent. He took all my best body shots.
Figueroa had no problem trying to stand and trade with Fassinou as his superior speed and length allowed him to consistently land first. Fassinou’s awkward style included switching stances almost nonstop throughout the bout, and made it tough for Figueroa to sit down and deliver knockout blows.
This was my first fight back in a while and I was happy to get the rust off,” said James. “Now I’m going to get back to work. I want to get at least one or two more fights this year and then really explode next year and set myself up to be a top contender.
As the fight went on, Fassinou slowed down enough to where Figueroa was able to trap him in the corner and deliver powerful blows throughout the last two rounds. Fassinou ended the night on his feet but all three judges gave the bout to Figueroa by scores of 79-73 og 78-74 tvisvar.
I wanted to break him down,” Said Figueroa. “He took my punches well. I think he won a round or two. I needed to catch my breath and I was hoping to stop him late. Hvort heldur, I got the win and I’m happy.

LONG ISLAND, NY (Júlí 15, 2017) – Ósigraður Omar Figueroa (27-0-1, 19 Kos) returned to the ring in emphatic fashion with a third-round stoppage of former champion Robert Guerrero (33-6-1, 18 Kos) í aðalkeppni á Premier Boxing Champions á FOX ogFOX Sports Saturday night from the newly-renovated NYCB LIVE, home of the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum. The show was the first major boxing event to take place at the Coliseum in 31 ár.
The former world champion Figueroa returned to the ring after a 19-month layoff and hardly missed a beat, as he sent Guerrero to the canvas five times over the three rounds and became the first fighter to ever stop Guerrero.
We knew that it was going to be tough to accomplish but I had obviously trained to get the knockout,” said Figueroa.With my hands finally being healthy, we knew that it was actually possible.
After winning the first round on all three judges’ skorkort, Guerrero continued to fight Figueroa from the inside and attempted to punish him with power shots. Hins, it was Figueroa who landed the first decisive blow of the fight, a scorching left uppercut that sent Guerrero immediately to the floor.
I haven’t fought this way in a long time because I didn’t have the power in my hands,” Said Figueroa. “I’ll always find a way to come out on top though.
Figueroa continued to attack, putting Guerrero down for a second time with a body shot and once more with a glancing shot right before the end of the round. Guerrero looked to blitz Figueroa to start the third round and immediately had Figueroa cornered.
After the first knockdown I knew that the instinct would kick-in for him and he’d go all out,” Said Figueroa. “I thought it was going to be over after the first knockdown of the second round but the ref let it keep going.
I’ve been working since January so I’m going to take some time off,” continued Figueroa. “Then I’m going to get back into camp to get back to 140-pounds. I want to be back in the ring by the end of the year.
The unbeaten fighter was able to turn the tide quickly however, putting Guerrero down twice more with strong flurries before referee Ron Lipton waved off the bout 1:34 í umferð. Eftir bardaga, Guerrero was taken to Nassau University Medical Center for precautionary reasons.
Ósigraður 2012 Bandarískt. Olympian Marcus Browne (20-0, 15 Kos) continued to solidify his status as a world title contender with an electrifying stoppage of previously undefeatedSeanie Monaghan (28-1, 17 Kos) in the second-round of their light heavyweight battle.
Despite fighting in front of a friendly crowd in his native Long Island, Monaghan struggled from the start as a blistering left hand from Browne sent him to the canvas early in the first round. Monaghan was quickly in survival mode and was aided when referee Steve Willis halted the bout after deeming that Browne had connected with an accidental low blow while looking to finish his opponent.
“”I could tell that I hurt him, but I didn’t want to rush and walk into anything,” Said Browne. “I just took my time and allowed everything to fall into place.
It was an honor for me to represent Long Island,” said Monaghan. “I knew that it was a big task tonight. Marcus is even faster than in sparring. I’ll be alright though, I’m happy that if I had to lose, it was to a guy the quality of Marcus Browne.
Monaghan was able to recover and eventually make it through the round, but Browne put his foot on the gas pedal to begin round two. Browne was able to trap Monaghan against the ropes and delivered a crushing series of body blows and chopping shots that caused Monaghan to hunch over. The onslaught eventually forced the referee to call a halt to the bout 40 sekúndur í hring.
I’m honored and blessed to be a part of this event and I just want to move upwards and onward from here,” Said Browne. “I want a date with Adonis Stevenson next. It’s amazing to have this kind of exposure on FOX and FOX Deportes. I loved the opportunity to make new fans tonight.
Marcus has always been a fast starter,” said Monaghan. “He always comes out very fast. I thought I was ready for the speed, but he is very skilled. I think he’s going to go a long way.
In front of a large contingent of his hometown fans, Adam Kownacki (16-0, 13 Kos) put on an impressive performance against his best opposition to date by scoring a fourth-round TKO of former title challenger Arthur Pin (20-3, 15 Kos) in their heavyweight showdown.
I always knew that I had him,” sagði Kownacki. “From the first shot I hit him in the body, I knew he didn’t have enough. My pressure was too much.
The fight began with both men looking to impose their styles as Szpilka attempted to establish his jab and evade his opponent, while Kownacki tried to trap Szpilka in a corner where he could tee-off with power punches.
Despite his left eye swelling up after two rounds, Kownacki was able to take the first bit of momentum by connecting late in round three with a series of power shots that appeared to at least shake Szpilka up.
As the fourth round began Kownacki wasted no time, landing a big punch that caused blood to start pouring out of the nose of Szpilka. While the former title challenger tried to keep his distance, the heavier Kownacki was able to land a series of power punches that put Szpilka on the canvas.
I have a great trainer and a great team that has gotten me into great shape,” sagði Kownacki. “I have to give them all of the credit. Whatever he was doing, I was ready for.
While Szpilka was able to get to his feet, Kownacki continued to keep the pressure on as another series of power punches, led by a strong right hand, sent Szpilka into a heap and forced referee Artur Mercante to stop the bout 1:37 í umferð. Kownacki landed 42 percent of his power punches in the decisive fourth round.
It took Deontay Wilder and Bryant Jennings a lot longer to get him out of there,” sagði Kownacki. “But I still have things that I’m going to go back and fix. Once I improve those aspects of my game I think that a lot of people are going to know me.
He hit me once with a good shot and after that I just never recovered,” said Szpilka. “I think it was a left hook. I’m going to rest now. This was not how I wanted this to go and I’m very disappointed.

Here is what the press conference participants had to say Wednesday from Gallagher’s Steakhouse in Manhattan:
OMAR FIGUEROA
We know that Guerrero is a tough guy and it’s going to be a rough fight. We prepared really well to go 12-rounds and get the win.
I love having my brother Brandon in camp and on this card with me. It gives me an opportunity to take my mind off of my fight and focus on Brandon for a bit. It really helps me cope with everything leading up to a big fight.
Training camp was amazing. We did a lot of sparring with lefties so that my footwork is down. Other than that I was just grinding every day and trying to get better.
I’m really happy to have the team that I have. Joel Diaz and I work really well together because we have the same mentality, but he can tell me when I need to take a step back.
New York is one of the places that has held historic fights. Being on that same stage as great fighters from the past is amazing. It’s one of those things that makes you feel like you made it.
I know how hard Robert Guerrero has worked to get to this point in his career. I want to prove that I can be in the big fights that Guerrero has already had. I’ve had a long time off but I can’t wait to get it á laugardag nótt.
I feel like I have everything in my arsenal to make this a successful night. I’m looking to show all of the things I’ve been working with Joel Diaz on and give the fans a great fight to remember.
ROBERT Guerrero
I’m expecting Omar to come to fight. He’s undefeated with a great record so if it’s not broken, I don’t expect him to change his style.
You have to prepare for everything for a guy as awkward as Omar. I’m going to have to make adjustments in the ring. If I can stay focused I know I can get the victory.
I’ve made a lot of improvements since the last time people saw me. There’s way too much talent in this division for me to just come forward and press. I’m in great shape and I’m ready to work behind my jab do everything I need to do to be successful in the ring.
I’m blessed to be here and have this tremendous opportunity in the main event again on FOX and FOX Deportes. It’s been a while since I’ve been in the ring but I never stopped working in the gym.
I’ve said before that I had to go to the drawing board but this time we erased everything and rewrote it. This layoff has really helped me get in great shape and I’m really excited to get in the ring. I’m ready to turn the page to the next chapter of my career and that starts with this fight.
It’s an honor to be able to work with my dad every day. It’s an incredible blessing for me to have such a loyal team. My father treats me like a man just like he always has. He makes me a better fighter every time out. He knows me like the back of his hand.
MARCUS BROWNE
I’m ready to roll. I’m ready let my hands go and get in the ring and rumble á laugardag nótt. This is going to be a great night of fights.
“Þetta er stór bardagi fyrir mig. It’s a great fight against a very determined and experienced fighter. Seanie is a veteran in this sport but he’s still hungry. He has a lot to lose, eins gera I. We’re both going to put it on the line.
I’m excited to be part of opening up this new venue. There are a lot of different cultures that come together in Long Island and it should make for a great crowd.
I think the timing that my career has progressed has been great. I’ve been going step-by-step and I feel like I’m on a good path towards a world title.
I’m very familiar with Seanie from sparring together but I know that he’s a veteran who’s going to have a great game plan. Training camp has me ready and I’m going to be prepared to make adjustments. I’m ready to lay it all out there.
SEANIE MONAGHAN
“Æfingabúðir hefur verið frábær. I’ve been sparring a lot of lefties and getting ready for this style matchup. This is probably the longest camp I’ve ever had and I feel great. I’m on weight right now and ready for this fight. This is the best shape I’ve ever been in.
It’s very inspiring to be looking at the place that you’ll be fighting while you’re training. I do my hardest workout on the track right across the street from the Coliseum. It helps me dig deep while I’m suffering.
This is going to be an interesting matchup. Marcus and I are pretty much opposites in the ring. I’m a righty and he’s a lefty. He’s a fast-starter and I’m a strong finisher. It’s my job to turn it into a battle of wills.
I’m fully-charged physically and locked and loaded mentally heading into Laugardagur nótt. This is the caliber of opponent I’ve been looking to face for a while and I’ll be ready when the bell rings.
This is my 29th time getting into the professional ring so I’m not concerned about the emotions that come with fighting at home. Any kind of energy that I feel, I’m going to use it for fuel in the later rounds when I need it.
Artur PIN
I want to show that my loss was an accident and that I’m ready to put on a great show for the fans.
We will see how hard this fight will be. That is up to him, because I will be ready to put it all on the line and get this win. People want to see emotions in the ring and we will see if Kownacki is ready for me.
I have to take this fight very seriously. I am in the best shape of my career. I can’t take for granted that I’m going to go in there and knock him out immediately.
I waited a long time for this return. I broke my hand after the Deontay Wilder fight but now I am back and 100 percent ready for this fight.
Adam is like I was before. He’s working his way up this sport and he’s very hungry. I respect Adam and I wish him the best, but not á laugardag nótt.”
ADAM Kownacka
This is a big stage and a great challenge for me. Now it’s time for me to show that I’m ready for this. I’ve never ducked a challenge and I never will.
All the hard work is done. I feel great after a really strong training camp and now the fun part comes Laugardagur nótt.
“Ég sparred með (top U.S. áhugamaður) Cam Awesome, who is a good mover around the ring so he’s definitely helped prepare me for what Artur is going to bring.
It means a lot to be in a fight between two Polish heavyweights. We’re two of the best Polish heavyweights in the world and only one of us can wear the crown.
“Þetta er minn koma út aðila. I’m going to make a statement á laugardag. I’ve been patiently waiting for this chance and now I’m going to prove that I belong.
Artur and I definitely have different styles. I’m more of a puncher and he’s more of a mover. I worked a lot in training camp on cutting off the ring.
BRANDON FIGUEROA
I feel like I’ve improved a lot during this training camp. I feel very strong and confident heading into this fight. It’s really exciting to be on a card like this with my brother headlining.
I’m just going to take my career step-by-step and take it one fight at a time. Hopefully if I keep working hard and performing I can get a title shot. I just want to take every fight that I can so that I can perform in front of the fans and give them a great show.
I feel very prepared and very confident heading into this fight. This is definitely one of the best camps I’ve had. I fight a lot of heavy guys in Joel Diaz’s gym and it helped me get perfectly prepared for this fight.
I love fighting on television so that I can give fans a good show. I’m always hungry for the win and now being in New York is an added piece of motivation.
LOU DIBELLA, Forseti DiBella Skemmtun
Á laugardag big-time boxing returns to Long Island. Það hefur verið 31 years since a big boxing show on Long Island and that show was headlined by Mike Tyson. Laugardagur night is going to be a great night for boxing in the New York area.
This show has three terrific fights coming to us á laugardag nótt. I love that this card has three fights where the outcome is up in the air and they’re all-action matchups.
Artur and Adam are in something of a grudge match, with these two Polish heavyweights talking about this for over a year, and now it’s finally going to happen. This is an important heavyweight fight. The loser takes a big step back.
Marcus Browne is a young lion rising his way up the ranks at light heavyweight. Seanie has been waiting a long time for an opportunity like this. The winner of this fight is right there for a world title. These guys have been friendly in the past, but they won’t be friends á laugardagnótt.
The main event is definitely a crossroads fight to some extent. I have tremendous respect for both Omar and Robert. Omar is returning to the ring against one of the most experienced and battle-tested fighters out there in Guerrero.
This is going to be a good night for Long Island and everyone who watches this in person or on FOX and FOX Deportes is going to be in for a great night of fighting.
