LAS VEGAS (Set. 8, 2017) – At 20 any, 9 months old, David Benavidez became boxing’s youngest world champion – and the youngest ever in the super middleweight division – with a split decision victory over Ronald Gavril el divendres night on an exciting night of 168-pound action on BOXA DE SHOWTIME: EDICIÓ ESPECIAL de The Joint del Hard Rock Hotel & Casino. See the video of the decision via Twitter link AQUÍ.

 

Benavidez (19-0, 17 KOs) placed the previously vacated WBC Super Middleweight belt around his waist after winning the title against former European amateur standout Gavril (18-2, 14 KOs) in what Benavidez later described as quite possibly the “Fight of the Year.” One scorecard had Gavril winning 116-111, with Benavidez winning on the other two scorecards, 116-111 i 117-111 in the event presented by Premier Boxing Champions.

 

“It feels amazing to win this title,” said the Phoenix resident Benavidez. “It’s everything I’ve dreamed about since I was a little kid. It’s everything I’ve dedicated myself to and I’ve worked hard for. It finally paid off.”

 

The 31-year-old Romanian Gavril, who trains at Mayweather’s Gym in Las Vegas by Eddie Mustafa Muhammad, sent Benavidez to the canvas with a left hook with just 50 seconds left in the wild 12º i ronda final.

 

“I feel I won the fight. Em va dominar el ritme. I can’t say anything else other than it was up to the judges,” Gavril said, who was watched by his promoter all-time great Floyd Mayweather from ringside. “The only thing I can do is to ask for a rematch.”

 

Benavidez, who turned pro at age 16 and only had 15 baralles com amateur, took control of the fight early on, but Gavril seemed to gain steam mid-fight, out-boxing and being more active than Benavidez in the seventh, rondes vuitena i novena. In rounds 11 i 12, Benavidez out-landed Gavril 66-35 overall and 53-14 with power punches.

 

“I felt my performance was good except for the last round when I got too anxious and wanted to knock him out,” Benavidez said. “I let my young side takeover and I wanted to give the fans a great fight. I didn’t really feel hurt but it was a shock knockdown. I know to be careful and more cautious. It was a learning experience.”

 

 

 

In another super middleweight contest, Abie Han suffered a devastating accidental head-butt againstJ'Leon Amor a 1:02 into the eighth round and the fight went to the scorecards. One judge had Las Vegas’ Love winning 79-73, and the other two 76-76 making the decision a technical majority draw.

 

Following an exchange of punches, Estimar (23-1-1, 13 KOs) leaned in and the two fighter banged heads in violent fashion. Han (26-3-1, 16 KOs) of El Pas, Texas, was left stunned and fell to the floor as blood gushed from his forehead above his left eye and he was immediately checked on by referee Kenny Bayless.

 

Han, who left the arena sitting up on a stretcher before hearing the decision, won the statistical battle in the ring. Han landed more blows (78-47 total, 20-12 jabs, 58-35 energia) and did so more accurately (24 percent to 17 percent overall, 16 percent to eight percent jabs and 30 percent to 27 percent power).

 

SHOWTIME boxing analyst Al Bernstein had Han winning by one point at the time of the stoppage.

 

“I can’t rate my performance as great because I didn’t get a victory, I got a draw,” said Love, who once trained at the famed Kronk Gym in Detroit under Hall of Fame trainer Emanuel Steward.

 

The 29-year-old Love ended nearly a one-year layoff with his return to the ring. “I’m kind of rusty but I feel like I pressed the action and tried to take it to him,"Ell va dir. “Other than that I feel like I landed the cleaner shots.”

 

A la primera baralla de la transmissió per televisió, unbeaten super middleweight prospect Caleb Planta (16-0, 10 KOs) recorded a 10-round shutout decision against a tough Andrew Hernández (19-7-1, 9 KOs), 100-90 tres vegades.

 

Planta, who resides in Las Vegas by way of Ashland City, Tenn., was the more active fighter against the 31-year-old switch-hitting journeyman Hernandez, who took the fight on just eight daysnotice after Alan Campa dropped out. Plant jabbed effectively (81 de 271, 30 per cent) while neutralizing Hernandez’s usually effective jab (46 de 325, 14 per cent). Plant was also sharp with his power shots landing 44 percent to Hernandez’s 19 per cent.

 

“I’m very pleased with my performance,” Plant said. “I boxed well and I dictated the pace. I pressed when I needed to press and boxed when I needed to box. I felt I put on a great show for the fans. I want to be star in boxing. I know with hard work I can accomplish anything.

 

“Hernandez is tough, I sent him with everything and he stood tall and my hats off to him. He’s a tough competitor.”

 

Hernández, from Phoenix, Ariz., suffered a cut under his left eye in the third and it caused him problems throughout the fight, opening up and bleeding over the final two rounds.

 

“All respect to Caleb Plant on his performance tonight,” Hernandez said. “He put on a solid fight and he’s got a great future. I was happy I was able to stay in there and last the entire 10 rondes.

 

“I felt Caleb won, but I don’t think it was 10 rounds to none. But that’s not for me to decide. It’s all up to the judges at the end of the day it only matters what they think.”

 

Plant added: “I’m ready to step up in competition and fight anybody in the top 10 of the super middleweight division. I got my eye on Benavidez and all the other world champions. I’m coming!"

 

Divendres de tripleheader will replay on Sunday, Set. 10, a 9 a.m. I/PT, i Dilluns, Set. 11, a 10 p.m. I/PT on SHOWTIME EXTREME and will be available on SHOWTIME on DEMAND® i SHOWTIME EN QUALSEVOL MOMENT®.

 

Barry Tompkins called the action from ringside with Bernstein and former world champion Raul Marquez serving as expert analysts. The executive producer was Gordon Hall with Richard Gaughan producing and Rick Phillips directing.

On his matchup with late opponent Andrew Hernandez
“Sincerament, it doesn’t matter who they put in front of me, I’ll fight anyone. I was originally supposed to fight Alan Campa, but he pulled out, like most of my opponents. Hernandez recently fought so I know he’s in good shape. I’m happy that he stepped up, but I’m going to put tips on him. There’s no two ways about it, I’m coming out on top.
On his recent training camp
Training camp has been unbelievable. It’s no doubt, one of my best training camps ever. My weight is perfect and I couldn’t be happier with the way I’ve been looking in the gym. My trainer Justin Gamber is doing a phenomenal job, as well as my dad Richie. Larry Wade, my strength and conditioning coach, has got me in tip top shape. We are going to dictate our game plan on Hernandez, and try to get him out of there before the final bell. If it goes the distance, Vaig a estar llest.”
On making his Showtime debut
I’m very excited to be making my debut on Showtime. This is the first of many as I believe I can become a household name on their network. Showtime is looking for their next star and I believe it’s me. I’m going to put on a spectacular performance. Everyone watching can expect to see a very skilled and determined fighter when they see me fight aquest divendresnit.”
On fighting in his new hometown of Las Vegas
This will be my third time fighting in Las Vegas, the mecca of boxing, and I want to stamp my legacy here. Since moving here from Nashville about a year ago, I’ve been getting some great work with some top-level fighters. Nashville will always be home, but Vegas is where I’m at right now. I have a lot of new fans out here and I can’t wait to put on a great show for them.
On what a victory will do for his career
“Una victòria aquest divendres will get me one step closer to a world title shot. I’m currently ranked WBA #7 i #11 per la Federació Internacional de Boxa. I’m right there knocking on the door. David Benavidez is fighting for the WBC title in the main event, and he’s definitely someone I want to fight. J'Leon Amor, who’s world ranked, is also on the card. Both are on my radar. I’m want all the champions in my division. I’m going to be a world champion when I get my opportunity.

The following is a training camp update from each of the fighters on d'aquest divendres triple.

 

David “El Bandera Roja” Benavidez

  • He trains out of The Summit Gym in Big Bear, Califòrnia.
  • His trainer is his father, Jose Benavidez Sr.
  • With a victory, Benavidez (edat 20) would become the youngest Super Middleweight to ever win a world title and the youngest current world champion.
  • He’s very familiar with the gym because his brother Jose Benavidez Jr. (former WBA interim super lightweight champion) used to train there when he was active.

 

Benavidez on training camp:

“My training camps are always fairly long. I only take a week off after every fight and go back into training. For the first couple weeks, it’s just moving around, then we slowly work into the hard training. For this one, I probably had like a month and a half, two months.”

 

En el seu oponent:

“I feel like he [Ronald Gavril] has a really good style for me to showcase my skills, like how I did against Rogelio Medina. With our sparring partners, we have brawlers and we have boxers, també. Whatever style he fights on that night, I’m going to be prepared for it.”

 

Ronald “The Thrill” Gavril

  • He trains at the Mayweather Boxing Club in Las Vegas.
  • He is a former European amateur standout.
  • His trainer is Eddie Mustafa Muhammad (65 anys; former WBA light heavyweight world champion, retired in 1988 amb un registre de 50-8-1, 39 KOs).

Gavril on training camp:

“I feel really sharp and I’m really happy with how everything has gone during training. This is the opportunity that I’ve worked so hard to get to and I’m definitely not letting it slip by. I know that everything needs to be 100 percent on fight night so I’m pushing myself to be ready to do whatever it takes to leave with the belt.”

 

En el seu oponent:

“Benavidez is a strong guy who’s coming in with a lot of support behind him, but I’m not going to let any of that distract me from my preparation. Me and my trainer are going to have a great game plan for him. I know he wants to be active and smother me and we’re going to show him all of the parts of my game.”

Eddie Mustafa Muhammad:

“I got Ronald sparring with the IBF’s number-one super middleweight contender, Jose Uzcategui. He’s giving us good work, too—he can fight. We also sparred Badou Jack for a couple rounds. We’ve got an abundance of guys that we’re working with.

 

“The way they’re talking about Benavidez, it’s like he’s King Kong. But it’s good—perfect! Ronald is a boxer-puncher, he can adapt. That’s the whole key. He has a wealth of amateur experience. This is our opportunity. We’ve talked about this for a while now, and Ronald is at a point where he’s ready right now…It’s going to be a great fight.”

 

J'Leon Amor

  • He trains at the Mayweather Boxing Club in Las Vegas.
  • His trainer is Theo Chambers.
  • He’s been in training camp for about five months

 

Love on training camp:

“My training camp—it’s been months! I started training in April. Being that we had fights fall out, I always stayed in the gym. That’s the hardest part, because I feel like I’ve had bad luck with fights falling out. But one thing I can say—we train our ass off! I just want to go on vacation after this.”

 

“We’ve had a lot of good sparring—Lionell Thompson and Denis Douglin have been in here working. We’ve had so many sparring partners throughout this camp, and we’ve just been working, working, working.

 

En el seu oponent:

“I remember Abie Han from the amateurs. He’s always been a tough fighter. You can’t look past anybody. Everybody comes in that ring to fight. Everybody comes in with a different mode or a different drive, so this may be the drive he has to really come out and explode on the scene and beat me. Així, I’m taking him absolutely, positively serious, like he’s a world championship fighter and we’re fighting for the world title.”

 

Abraham “The Sun City Warrior” Han

  • Trains out of his father’s martial arts studio in El Paso, Texas (Han’s Martial Arts).
  • He is trained by Louie Burke — 56 anys; former pro junior lightweight, retired in 1985 amb un registre de 19-3, 12 KOs; won the “ESPN Junior Lightweight Title” on Apr. 14, 1983, with a 12-round unanimous decision against Freddie Roach; also won a 10-round decision against Roach in the rematch on Nov. 10, 1983.
  • He has sparred with former world champion Austin Trout.

 

Han on training camp:

“I train at my dad’s martial arts studio in El Paso – Han’s Martial Arts. I’m sparring mostly with local people from El Paso, and I also sparred with Austin Trout.

 

“I’ve been working hard and working with Austin (Truita) and that makes a big difference. Austin makes me so much better. He’s been a world champion and he will be a world champion again. His expertise and his knowledge is amazing. He’s been in those situations and he tells me little things along the way and I think that will make all the difference in this fight.”

 

Caleb “Sweet Hands” Plant

  • Moved to Las Vegas from Nashville about a year ago to train
  • He is trained by Justin Gamber and his father Richie Plant.

 

Plant on training camp:

I’ve been living in Las Vegas for more than a year now – since August 24th, 2016. I’ve been in the gym consistently this whole time since my last fight, but my ‘officialtraining camp will be seven or eight weeks. We bounce around to a couple of different gyms for sparring. I’ve had good work this camp – great sparring, good strength and conditioning, good gym work, and I’ve had good rest. I have a good diet.

 

I know every boxer says, ‘Oh, this is my best camp,’ and a lot of times they don’t mean it. But this has literally been my best camp. Things are very smooth.”

 

Andrew Hernández

  • He is managed by his wife Jacquie Hernandez and trained by Alan Beirs.
  • Alfred Quintana serves as his cut man and strength and conditioning coach.
  • A late replacement, Hernandez got the call on Aug. 29 and accepted the fight; contract signed the next day.
  • Trains at Gents Gym in Arrowhead, Ariz.

 

What Hernandez has to say:

I’ve known my trainer, Alan Beirs, for a while. He actually helped me with my last couple of fights – we’ve only been together maybe six months or so. He worked my corner in February, but we weren’t working completely together. Then when I got back in the gym in March, that’s when we really started working together.

 

I train at a place called Gents Gym in Arrowhead, Ariz. I trained there with the Busted Knuckles Boxing crew – that’s Alan Beirscrew. We’re all pushing each other to get better and I know they’ll have me ready for fight night.”

Això és el que els combatents havien de dir abans del Dijous de pesatge:

 

GALARZA:

“We had some great sparring with guys like Daniel Jacobs, Saddam Ali, Khytrov. They always give me top tough work. That’s top competition right there. Fighting guys like that builds my confidence. If I can hang in there with them then I can hang with anyone. They’re going to help to bring me to another level. I feed off their energy.

 

“Moore is an aggressive fighter, but I’m a come-forward guy, massa. Jo puc ser agressiu, but smart aggressive. Not just aggressive to punch and throw punches wildly. It’s more being smart, using my defense, my offense and countering when he makes mistakes.

 

“I try not to think about fighting in the main event in Brooklyn, but it helps and it definitely motivates me. Vull dir, it doesn’t get any better than that – fighting in my home in the main event.

 

“It’s my backyard, so I have to put on a show. It doesn’t give me jitters because I’ve fought in my home before, but the main event is different. I just need to do my job.

 

"Per a mi, it’s will and skill. I bring my skill level to the next level. How bad do I want it? Am I going to perform well enough to move to the next level and face those top contenders?

 

“I want to face the top prospects so I can earn a spot as a contender. But I need to get through this guy first.”

 

MOORE:

“The main reason why I came all the way to the United States is because here is where boxing is at its best. I’m really excited about this opportunity. Being on SHOWTIME as a main event is huge for me.

 

“It’s not going to be easy, I’m fighting a guy from Brooklyn in Brooklyn in his back yard. But I’ve been in this situation before, I’ve fought abroad many times before and I’m not intimidated. It’s another day at the office for me.

 

“This is it for me, there’s no turning back. He de guanyar. I just don’t see myself losing tomorrow.

 

“I’ve seen a couple Galarza videos on YouTube. He was more of a brawler at the beginning of his career. Ara, he’s a more disciplined boxer. That can backfire sometimes, something to watch out.

 

“You’ll see fireworks and excitement. I’m not going to look for the knockout. I think it’s a bad strategy to do that. If it comes, it comes. I’ll be looking to win, no matter what. This is a very big fight for me, so it’ll be all about winning, impressing and being at my best.”

 

KHYTROV

“The atmosphere training in Big Bear was amazing. It was one of the best training camps I’ve had. I’ve never been through a camp in the amateurs like that.

 

“I had a chance to meet Gennady (Golovkin) in Big Bear and we spoke and actually became pretty close. We talked about training regime, stuff athletes talk about. I loved it there.

 

“The adjustment from amateurs to pros has been fine. The only difference is handling the different rounds and realizing that you have to pace yourself for these eight, 10, 12 round fights.

 

“The best time to knock a guy out is in the first two rounds when they aren’t warmed up yet. I tried against (Jorge) Melendez but I couldn’t get him out. I just realized I needed to pace myself for the other six rounds and work the body. It was nice to get those rounds and experience against a tough fighter.

 

“I know he (Coley) is a pretty hard-hitting southpaw. I assume that he won’t come forward, but maybe he’ll surprise me. He has a few knockouts, but I’m going to watch him, learn and adapt.

 

“I faced southpaws in the amateurs. His style won’t give me any issues. I could even switch to a southpaw stance if I need to.

 

“Personally, health allowing, I think I should be a contender by the end of 2015. But I put all my trust into my team. They know best. My job is just to train and prepare for everything they put in front of me.

 

“Yes, 100 percent I’d like to face Gennady. To be the best you have to fight the best. And right now I consider him to be the best 160 pound fighter in the world.”

 

COLEY:

“Fighting on TV for me is a big deal. When I was little, my father used to throw fight parties to watch big fights and tomorrow he’s throwing one for me. That alone makes me so proud. I’ll have my own viewing party. I’m fighting on national television, per SHOWTIME. That’s such of big deal for me. This is my breakout. This is the sign I’m made it.

 

“I stay in shape all year round, but for the past two months I’ve been taking it to the extreme. Training hard, sparring even harder.

 

“I’ve been working very hard. I’ve sparred with world champions and I’ve been doing well. I think this is my time to step up and show everybody how good I am.

 

“I’m predicting there will be a stoppage in the later rounds.”

DEREVYANCHENKO:

“The competition I faced in the WSB was, for the most part, the best fighters in the world. Fins ara, the guys I’ve faced in the pros don’t have that resume, that skill level. So I think I’ve fought in more than just four pro fights.

 

“I’m working hard in the gym to make the transition from amateur to pro. I’m taking it step-by-step. I don’t want to jump the gun or make a mistake too fast. I’m looking forward to increasing my level of opposition gradually.

 

“I’ve seen some of his (Campa) baralles. In some fights he boxes different than in other fights. We’ll see what he does in the ring and adjust accordingly. But I don’t think he can bring anything that I haven’t seen before. But he’s a Mexican fighter so we know he won’t give up.

 

“I’m going to show what I’m worth. I’ve been preparing for this my whole life. Now is my chance to build my fan base and show what I can do in the ring.”

CAMPA:

“This is my first fight in the U.S., and I’m planning to take full advantage of this opportunity.

 

“My training was intense, a lot of running, especially in the mountains. I worked on my conditioning and my speed. I’m at the best shape I’ve ever been.

 

“When I found out about my opponent, I watched video on him and I know I’m better than him. I think my main advantages are age and speed. My opponent is 29, Estic 23. I’m younger and quicker and I’m not about to make it easy for him.

 

“I’m going to read him in the early rounds and, if I feel he’s not hurting me, I’ll go the distance.

 

“This fight is a huge step-up for me. I see it as key fight. I feel it might be a make or break for me. We’ll see, I might get a chance to deliver a knockout and that might spark some attention in the boxing world.”

Galarza, considerat per molts com "El Brooklyn Rocky," continua recuperar el temps perdut. La seva impactant victòria per nocaut en el segon assalt sobre el favorit John Thompson sobre la seva ShoBox: La Nova Generaciódebut, was one of the most memorable knockouts of the year. Galarza has been on a tear since.

 

"Galarza va ser una troballa fortuïta per ShoBox,'' Historiador de boxa reconegut i ShoBox analista expert Steve Farhood. "Des que va trasbalsar Thompson, que ha guanyat quatre vegades més, i es veia cada vegada millor. El nivell de la seva oposició no li permet ser anomenat un contendent encara, però ell ha fet grans avenços. M'agradaria pensar en l'edat 29 que tractaria de fer d'aquest un gran any per a ell ".

 

La baralla Galarza-Moore és un dels tres programats 08:00 terrenys en una transmissió per televisió que té un gust Brooklyn diferent a ella.

For Galarza, que està grimpant en el rànquing mundial, el recent augment no podia arribar en un millor moment. Un físicament fort, agressiu boxejador-colpejador, Galarza va començar tard en la boxa i tenia només 11 baralles com amateur.

 

"El moment per a mi és sens dubte ara,'', Va dir. "La meva primera ShoBox lluitar establir la plataforma per a mi. No m'acaba de guanyar una baralla que absolutament ningú va pensar que podia, El vaig guanyar en gran estil. Vaig fer una declaració. He seguit creixent i sento que he millorat des que lluita. Però sóc aquí per mostrar a la gent el que estic tot sobre, continuar entrenant molt dur i que acaba de prendre a poc a poc, una baralla a la vegada.

 

"És emocionant per lluitar en l'esdeveniment principal televisat al meu pati del darrere. Mai he estat més motivats per a un partit. Vull agrair a SHOWTIME per donar-me una altra oportunitat de lluitar a ShoBox.''

 

Per l'estil, Galarza creu que això és un gran dol per ell. "Moore es veu físicament gran i fort, resistent i amb fam i ve a barallar,'', Va dir. "És agressiu i aquesta és la millor part d'això - el que farà que una gran baralla. Jo puc ser agressiu, massa. Jo sé que ell ve a barallar i tothom sap que no em moc cap enrere, així que espero que els focs artificials.

 

"Vinc a lluitar cada vegada, especialment per SHOWTIME, a ShoBox on et donen els opositors de bon calibre que s'espera posar en un espectacle i espera fer una bona baralla.

 

"Està a Brooklyn, la meva ciutat natal, i vull entretenir a la gent. Aquest és el meu xou, meu retorn a casa, i vaig a defensar la meva terra natal. Tinc una feina a fer a l'abril 10, però després d'això, els grans noms de la divisió seran obligats a tractar amb mi. Estic 29 i posant tot en la línia. ''

 

En la seva més recent ShoBox aparença, Galarza va guanyar una decisió unànime de vuit assalts sobre el prèviament invicte Sebastien Bouchard (8-0 anar a) al maig 16, 2014, amb les puntuacions 78-73 i 77-74 dues vegades tot i haver-hi un punt per un cop baix a la ronda final.

 

El oponent de Galarza, 27-anys d'edat, Moore, està fent la seva ShoBox debut i quarta obertura als Estats Units, on és 1-1-1. La seva última aparició en el U.S. al juny 2012.

"Aquesta és una gran oportunitat per a mi i la meva carrera, sens dubte aquesta és la baralla més important de la meva vida,"Va dir Moore. "És una lluita que han de guanyar per a mi. He vist algunes de les baralles de Galarza i estic completament segur que tinc el que es necessita per molestar en el vostre jardí. Això és un somni fet realitat per a mi, lluitant en la televisió nacional, i penso en mostrar el món de la boxa que pertanyo a nivell d'elit d'aquesta divisió.

"El meu estil és definitivament agressiu. M'agrada caminar per la meva oponent. Galarza té bon moviment i bon abast. Però aquesta baralla serà la primera baralla en la qual no he de treballar al costat durant la preparació. Estic 100 cent dedicat a l'esport i que sortirà el 10 d'abril "

 

El 5 peus i 10 Moore ha guanyat les seves últimes dues baralles, el més recent en un nocaut en el primer assalt sobre Janos Varga últim Desembre. 20 a Bèlgica. Igual que Galarza, ell va començar tard en la boxa i va tenir una carrera amateur limitada (27 extrems). Ell kickboxing quan era 15, però no va tenir la seva primera baralla amateur fins a l'edat de 19.

 

Khytrov (HE-costos pronunciades) era un aficionat fenomenal amb els informes, 500 baralles amateur. Ell era el 2011 campió del món amateur i un representant d'Ucraïna en el 2012 Jocs Olímpics.

 

Aquesta serà la seva segona aparició en ShoBox. En el seu debut a Jan. 9, destruir el prèviament invicte Maurici Louishomme, guanyar per nocaut tècnic en el tercer assalt. Va encendre Louishomme amb de dreta i uppercuts al cos, ell trontollant en múltiples ocasions en un sol costat assumpte que va ser detingut a 0:24 a la tercera ronda.

 

Agressiu, ofensiva de ment Khytrov ha lluitat un total de 27 rondes en nou obertures, una mitjana de tres rondes d'una lluita - i que inclou al seu nocaut tècnic en el millor de la seva carrera en el vuitè assalt sobre el sempre difícil porto-riqueny Jorge Melendez al març 6.

 

"Ievgen [pronunciat yev-gin, amb un disc G] és tan fan d'usar un lluitador, que trobarà, mai fa un pas cap a enrere, sembla fer mal al seu oponent amb cada cop,'' Va dir Farhood. “After nine fights, que mostra tots els signes que ell serà un aspirant al títol en un any a 18 mesos-. El seu més recent, una aturada de més de Jorge Meléndez, Va ser un pas valent per assumir un oponent perillós i experimentat, i ell ho va prendre, ell es va trencar. Què és el que em diuen?"

 

Un dels millors prospectes de la boxa, el 5 peus i 11 polzades, 26-anys Khytrov s'ha mogut a un ritme molt més ràpid que la majoria dels altres prospectes en aquesta etapa de la seva carrera. Va fer el seu debut professional a l'edat 25 al desembre 2013 i va barallar sis vegades en 2014. Aquesta és la seva tercera baralla de 2015. Totes les seves baralles han estat en els Estats Units.

Khytrov, qui es va mudar a Brooklyn, poc després de la 2012 Jocs Olímpics, està ansiós per Abril 10 arribar. "Estic molt emocionat d'estar tornant al ring el Abril 10, especialment sent que la lluita està en la meva llar adoptiu de Brooklyn,'', Va dir. "Vull agrair als meus promotors DiBella Entertainment i Lluita Promocions Inc. i el meu manager Al Haymon per aquesta oportunitat de mostrar un cop més les meves habilitats per ShoBox.

"Espero una baralla difícil de Coley, qui, com jo, mai ha estat derrotat com a professional. Sabíem que 2015 que seria un gran any per a mi i la meva carrera, i prometo altra espectacular actuació en Abril 10 a mesura que continuem ascendint en el rànquing de la meva divisió ".

Khytrov compara el seu estil a un dels grans de tots els temps de la boxa. “Tinc un estil de Roberto Durán. Sóc un lluitador sense quarter,'', Va dir. "Ataco el cos. M'encanta el punt de mira TV. ''

 

Coley és un esquerrà i dos anys de professional que està tenint un immens pas endavant en aquesta lluita, la seva ShoBox i el debut de vuit assalts. Una perspectiva en 160 lliura - es va traslladar des de la divisió de pes mitjà júnior en la seva última baralla - que iscoming fora del nocaut en el sisè de la seva carrera, una cinquena ronda de KO sobre Loren Myers a l'octubre. 11, 2014.

 

"Estic molt emocionat per exhibir meves habilitats en una plataforma com SHOWTIME,'', Va dir el Coley sempre ben condicionat, que mai ha estat enderrocat com a professional o aficionat. "He vist Khytrov lluita. A partir del que sembla, ell és un lluitador decent. Realment no crec que hi hagi res especial en ell. És bastant senzill, un tipus d'Europa de l'Est que simplement va i utilitza petits angles. Ell és un pegador dur amb bona potència, però no sé els nois que ha estat lluitant.

 

"Alguna cosa Mas, vostè no pot fer mal al que no pot colpejar ".

 

Un boxejador àgil que ara treballa de Virgil Hunter'S gimnàs al nord de Califòrnia, Coley està fent la seva segona obertura del seu nou entrenador Eddie Croft.Ell havia estat vivint i entrenant a Las Vegas. Va continuar 8-0 l'inici d'una carrera professional que va començar a l'abril 2012.

 

Quant al seu sobrenom, Coley va dir, "El meu pare és propietari d'un negoci de la ferralla."

 

Derevyanchenko (pronunciat der-que-van-CHENK-oh), que està fent la sevaShoBox debut, té l'aspecte d'un competidor "imperdible". Un pas més enllà, molts esperen que el seu ascens en el rànquing mundial de ser ni més ni menys que meteòrica. Ell està actualment en el lloc N. 12 al FIB, No. 25 en el CMB.

 

"Estic molt emocionat per la meva primera baralla a la televisió americana,'', Va dir. "Aquesta serà la primera vegada que apareix en ShoBox i estic absolutament encantat. Aquest és el meu festa de presentació. M'estic preparant dia i nit, i estic llest per mostrar les meves habilitats al món. Estic a punt per mostrar-El Tècnic. '

 

"El meu estil és molt tècnic, però una vegada que m'imagino que el meu oponent fora, Ataco brutalment. Amb treball dur i un gran equip darrere meu, Vaig a ser un campió del món en la meva divisió. No hi ha dubte en la meva ment ".

 

Un aficionat excepcional, el de 5 peus i 7 Derevyanchenko compilar un rècord sorprenent de 390-20 mentre que en representació del seu Ucraïna natal a la 2008 Jocs Olímpics. Un any abans, va guanyar la medalla de bronze en el 2007 Campionats del Món Amateur.

 

Aquesta serà la cinquena inici d'Derevyanchenko en una fila fora de la Sèrie Mundial de Boxa on va ser 23-1. Ell era el 2012 Team Champion WSB i 2011 i 2012 WSB Campió Individual. Va lluitar en la WSB de novembre 2010 a abril 2014.

 

Derevyanchenko guanyar la seva primera baralla fora de la WSB en un nocaut tècnic en el segon assalt sobre Cromwell Gordon al juliol 23, 2014. En la seva última baralla el passatFebrer. 20, anotar un sol costat KOT en el segon assalt sobre Govern Biosse.

 

Quant al seu oponent, Derevyanchenko dir, "Campa és un bon boxejador - alçada, fort. Ell mira durador, un oponent sòlid. ''

 

Campa està fent la seva ShoBox debutar a Abril 10 i serà la seva primera baralla fora de Mèxic. Ha guanyat quatre en fila, tres per nocaut. Noquejar Christian Chavez en la segona ronda en la seva última sortida el passatDesembre. 6.

El 6-peus-1, 23-anys d'edat, està prenent un salt gegantí a la classe i les probabilitats estan en contra, però res d'això importa a ell una vegada que els sons de campana d'obertura.

“I am very excited to finally make my dream a reality and fight in the United States,'', Va dir. "Això és només l'oportunitat que he entrenat i lluitat pels últims cinc anys. Sóc versàtil; Puc lluitar agressivament o caixa i moviment.

“Many promising young prospects got their start on ShoBox i va passar a guanyar títols mundials. En Abril 10, Alan Campa començarà aplanant el camí per unir-se a la llista de ShoBox campions del món.

"He entrenat molt dur. Sé que puc guanyar aquesta baralla ".

Campa també va tenir una forta experiència com a aficionat (182-6). Abans de convertir-se en professional al setembre 2010, ell era un campió de l'estat de Sonora, cinc vegades, un campió regional en cinc ocasions, i un campió nacional en quatre ocasions. També va ser el medallista d'or en la 2010 Campionat Panamericano de la Joventut a 165 lliura.
