Сугар Раи Леонард & DAVID DINKINS JR. MEDIA CONFERENCE CALL HIGHLIGHTS
“These are the type of fights that are going to bring boxing back to where it used to be.” – Sugar Ray Leonard
SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING on CBS, представили Премиер Бокинг Цхампионс,
Live in Primetime on CBS From Barclays Center in Brooklyn
ЊУЈОРК (Март 1, 2017) – Boxing Hall of Famer and former undisputed welterweight world champion Сугар Раи Леонард и David Dinkins Jr., SHOWTIME Sports Senior Vice President and Executive Producer, hosted a media conference call у среду to discuss Leonard joining the CBS broadcast team for Субота је welterweight unification between undefeated champions Keith Thurman and Danny Garcia. Стивен Еспиноза, Executive Vice President and General Manger, Сховтиме Спорт, began the call with some opening remarks.
The SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING on CBS, представили Премиер Бокинг Цхампионс, broadcast will air live on CBS from 9-11 п.м. И/6-8 п.м. PT from Barclays Center in Brooklyn, дом БРООКЛИН БОКСИНГ ™. The broadcast is presented by Premier Boxing Champions and produced by SHOWTIME Sports® for CBS Television, both divisions of the CBS Corporation.
Leonard will join the SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING broadcast team у суботу alongside host Брајан Кастер, play-by-play voice Мауро Раналло, International Boxing Hall of Fame analyst Ел Бернштајн and Sports Emmy® Award-winning reporter Џим Сива.
A five-division titlist and one of the most decorated boxers of all-time, Leonard brings unique perspective to the broadcast booth having been in a similar situation to Thurman and Garcia more than 35 пре неколико година. Гарсија, the WBC 147-pound titleholder, and Thurman, his WBA counterpart, will unify the exact same titles that Leonard (ВБЦ) and fellow Hall of Famer Thomas Hearns (ВБА) unified in their classic 1981 Борба године.
Leonard made his professional boxing debut on CBS in 1977, less than one year after he won gold at the ‘76 Olympics in Montreal as part of what is considered the greatest American boxing team in Olympic history. The Март 4 event will reunite Leonard with former CBS producer and current SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING Executive Producer Dinkins Jr.
Below is what the principals said Среда on the conference call:
Сугар Раи Леонард
“I was telling David [Dinkins] данас, this is the perfect matchup. Мислим, you have two incredible fighters, each one of them with their own style and confidence with Keith and Danny. What also raises an eye is the unification. That’s big time for any fighter. And if these fighters can live up to their expectations, I think it’s going to be a home run, without question.
“These are the type of fights that are going to bring boxing back to where it used to be. It’s going to require these type of fights, these type of individuals, these type of athletes, these type of potential super stars, to really change and make boxing what it used to be.”
On the importance of having these types of fights on network television and what it takes to bring the sport back to what it used to be…
“These two young men, these two champions, these undefeated fighters, they fit the mold. I talk to people all of the time about what fights they want to see and this is a fight that has star-quality to it.”
On the advantages of each fighter…
“I look at Keith, and I’ve been watching, over and over, tapes of his previous fight. Опет, each of them bring something to the table. Кит Терман, seems to me, a little more fundamentally sound than Danny Garcia. But Danny Garcia, has a neutralizer. One thing I think is a big factor for the actual fight itself, is that both guys are great champs and both of them could take punches. Тако, Не знам. Put it this way, I wouldn’t bet my house.
“I do favor Thurman because he just seems to be a little bit more poised and collected. He just seems to be that kind of guy. Најпре, he would never give up. Nor would Danny. But I just lean… it’s just my gut that tells me that Keith is a little bit more solid than Danny.”
On Danny Garcia…
“He’s just a guy that has that internal fortitude. He has heart, big heart. And he doesn’t give in. I think he’s the kind of fighter, you know where people short-change him. But I look at him and he’s one of those fighters that, I don’t train – I never train at all – but he’s the kind of fighter that I would enjoy training. Because he deserves to be up there.”
On the importance of facing the best opponents possible…
“That’s extremely important. Срећом, I was in an era where there were just a lot of guys out there who were so talented. If given the chance they would prove to be champions.
“I always thought that we had to continue to raise the bar as a fighter, as a champion, and continue to fight better and better competition. When I was fighting, I swear, I wanted to be the underdog -psychologically, spiritually and mentally, if I wasn’t challenged, if I wasn’t considered somewhat of an underdog, I couldn’t perform the way I normally would. It’s what would get me going.
“I have said this a number of times: This fight is going to be bigger and better than what we anticipate because of what is at stake.
“The advantage [for me] was the television network exposure, without question. I loved that. It pumped me up because I loved the exposure. I loved the attention. I loved the fights and that’s what also helped me to be the fighter that I became.
On what it’s like being ringside and broadcasting a unification welterweight fight much like the fights and titles he’s fought for…
“It is an out-of-body experience. It’s déjà vu. Like holy, Ја сам 60. It’s a kind of thing that is so special and it’s so rare of a unification it seems like. It speaks volumes to me as far as the significance of it. And these guys, Keith and Danny, they know it. They realize it.”
DAVID DINKINS JR.
“When we were discussing the upcoming Thurman-Garcia fight in our senior staff meeting, many of us longtime fight fans thought about Ray’s first fight with Thomas Hearns and the many parallels there with Danny Garcia and Keith Thurman. You have two undefeated fighters and two titlists who have been on a path toward each other since Danny moved up from being a unified champion at super lightweight and moved into the welterweight ranks and gained a world title at 147 фунти.
“Ray and Tommy were two stars who it just seemed inevitable that they would fight. We feel the same way about Keith and Danny. You have two undefeated champions and it’s inevitable that they would meet and declare who would be the No. 1 борац у 147 фунти.
“I’m so happy that Ray can join us for this telecast and he and I have discussed over the past few days the many similarities between his circumstance during the Golden Era of Boxing when he had rivals like [Роберто] Дуран, Hearns and [Wilfred] Benitez at 147 фунти.
“To make the situation even sweeter it reunites myself and Ray after we had worked together years ago at CBS. He along with Tim Ryan и Гил Цланци formed a very entertaining announce team. Ray was in and out of retirement at that point. So his full-time, part-time job up at CBS was terrific fun. We got to see some great fights and work together. And now he joins Mauro Ranallo and Al Bernstein, who is also a Hall of Famer just like Ray is, ringside this Долази субота. It’s just incredible great fortune that Ray was available to join us and be a significant contributor у суботу."
Степхен ЕСПИНОЗА, Извршни потпредседник и генерални директор, Сховтиме Спорт
“SHOWTIME continues to deliver the strongest lineup of any network in boxing. We are delivering the biggest and most meaningful fights and delivering to the largest possible audience. With none on pay-per-view.
“Ове суботе SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING will present the most anticipated fight of the year live on America’s most watched network, ЦБС. Danny Garcia versus Keith Thurman is without question the best fighting the best. They are two undefeated champions with a combined record of 60 wins and zero losses and squaring off in the prime of their careers to determine who the top dog is in boxing’s marquee division.
“SHOWTIME has really made it our mission to televise the top-rated champions against the top-rated challengers in boxing’s most compelling weight classes.
“The fans have taken note, and the momentum continues to rise. Адријен Бронер и Адријан Гранадос fought a close fight two weeks ago that was our most watched main event за две године.
“This is just the second primetime fight on CBS in nearly 40 years since Ali-Spinks in 1978. We are grateful to our colleagues at CBS who are helping to deliver this important event for boxing. It is critical that we put our best foot forward in a very hyper competitive television market, and that is certainly what we are doing Субота night on CBS.”

Martiniz lunged, Ruiz countered and then he slightly moved to the side, avoiding any potential. Defensively, Ruiz was far superior, keeping Martinez off balance through out the majority of rounds.
Руиз (Р) controlled most of the action in the main event
“Одлично се осећам,” Ruiz exclaimed. “I took this last minute fight but I was ready for it. Hanzel is a tough fighter. He has guts. I didn’t think he’d to the full 10 метака. This is an opportunity that will open a lot of doors for me. He knew he was coming to fight and I as ready for him.” In a good technical fight with a lot of give-and-take action from start to finish, неумућенStephon “Showstopper” Млад (15-0-3, 6 КОс) поражен Tony Lopez, Јр.

Young won a 10-round majority decision.
(Л) Young’s quickness was the difference
“Било је веома тешко борба,” Young commented. “My coach said, if you wan it, go get him. And I did. I knew what I was coming to get. People want to see me fight in this division.” In the television opener, NABA USA super welterweight champion Јохн “Пхеном” Вјера (15-0, 10 КОс) made another strong statement under the neon lights, stopping challenger Milorad “Micko” Zizic (12-2, 7 КОс) у другом кругу. Making his second title defense, Вјера, јужњака, served notice to all super welterweights, dropping Zizic twice and then staggering him again before referee Kenny Baylesscalled an end to the fight. Вјера Vera decked Zizic twice
“I came out here to put on a show,” Vera said after the fight. “I dropped him (први) with a left-right. The second knockdown I feinted and hit him with a hard right jab. I then turned right-handed because I knew my right was working. I knew I had him.” Las Vegas junior lightweight Randy Moreno cruised to his fifth win without a loss, unloading an unanswered barrage of punches on Фабијан “El Suavecito” Alanez (1-1) until referee Jay Nady halted the fight in the second round.
