Eleider Alvarez
Alvarez will put his WBC mandatory challenger position to champion Adonis“Superman” Stevenson (28-1, 23 Kos) in danger with an end of April date for this world title fight having already been reserved.
Bute has also set his goal to challenge Stevenson. The veteran southpaw plans to clearly demonstrate that he deserves another wotld title shot, taking on the No. 1 conternder in undefeated Alvarez. Whatever the final outcome, the winner will be the most popular and legitimate challenger for Stevenson, dramatically increasing interest and notoriety of a totally Québécois world championship showdown.
All the ingredients are gathered to heighten popular interest in this fight, which will prove to be one of the most significant in the history of Quebec.
It is a local confrontation between two athletes who chose Quebec as their adopted home, fully integrating in the loal culture and learning French, as well as where they’ve fought the vast majority of their bouts. The result of this major clash will also have enormous repercussions at the international level in the light heavyweight division.
In one corner is former world champion Bute, who has delivered many inspirational performances during his 13 world championship fights (10-2-1, 8 Kos) to become a great star and admired celebrity in Quebec.
The other corner finds unbeaten Alvarez, a world-class fighter for the past three years who has delivered his most brilliant performances abroad, albeit mostly in the shadows of other great stars of Quebec. The former Colombian Olympian wants to establish his true value after having prepared for Stevenson by fighting opponents for more than the past year. He will earn his highest purse, which is similar to what he would have received to fight Stevenson first.
It is the fans of Quebec in their entirety who will first be delighted with this mega fight and I am convinced that there will be no losers,” GYM umengameli Yvon Michel wathi. “Although it is difficult to predict the outcome of this confrontation, most likely this fight will be so interesting and close that, eventually the two could get, one after the other, a world championship fight against the powerful southpaw champion of Montreal, Adonis Stevenson.
It was important for us to have this fight at the Vidéotron Centre,” wanezela Vice-President Shows & Creative Content of Québecor, Michel Granger. The last time (the Stevenson-Williams fight) was a success and it will be the same on February 24.”

The last six months have been tough for me,” Bute explained. “After the Washington situation was settled, I was happy to finally sit down and discuss my next fight. I accepted as soon as I was offered the fight. We’re talking about an undefeated guy ranked number 1 by the WBC. It’s quite a challenge. I tip my hat to Alvarez for putting his position in peril.
I was expecting the winner of the unification title fight between James Dégale futhi Badou Jack, but I had no guarantees and I could not afford to wait. My goal is to fight again for a world championship, whether it’s at 168 noma 175 amakhilogremu, and I did not want to just take a meaningless preparatory fight.
After evaluating all the options, we came to the conclusion that we had to take this fight,” Alvarez’ ikhanda trainer Marc Ramsey remarked. “Kunjalo, there are risksbut it’s worth it. Eleider has long awaited an opportunity to box against someone recognized in Quebec, and people have not yet seen his full potential. He was all smiles when he received the offer.”.
When Marc called me into his office,” Alvarez commented, “I was wondering what was going on. Generally, when he calls me into his office, it’s not good news. He asked me to sit down and if I wanted to face Bute. I smiled and said, yebo. He is the most popular boxer in Quebec, so my motivation will be different. I’m doing this for myself and my family. I want to be world champion and now it’s going through Lucian. I’ve been looking a long time for a big fight like this and for the first time I will be the headliner.

I knew I had to be ready for 12 emahlandla, boxing or brawling. It was a competitive fight but we just worked harder every round.”

 

Lapho ebuzwa Gray uma kwakunzima ukuthola isigqi sakhe, Arroyo waphendula, “That’s a normal thing when a southpaw fights a right hander. We were both trying to be slick and smart. That happens when two boxers with the same style fight.”

UNDUNANKULU Boxing ULWELA ON CBS & SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING MEDIA CONFERENCE CALL TRANSCRIPT


 

Lisa Milner

Thank you operator. Thank you everybody for joining us. We’re going to get to the fighters for this huge, huge day of boxing next Saturday, July 18. I did want to first turn the call over to Stephen Espinoza, Executive Vice President and General Manager of SHOWTIME Sports who can get into the details of the fights and the first fighter we will have speaking immediately after Stephen is Chris Arreola. But Stephen please kick it off.

 

Stephen Espinoza

Thanks very much Lisa. As Lisa said, it is a huge weekend of boxing coming up on CBS and SHOWTIME. First on Friday night we’ve got a stellar SHOBox card featuring six undefeated boxers in action.

 

Then on Sunday we have a unique day/night double header, which as far as we have found is unprecedented. It’s CBS and SHOWTIME teaming up to televise a total of five fights, including two world title fights and a title eliminator, all coming from the Don Haskins Center in my hometown, Step, Texas.

 

So the SHOWTIME family is very happy about these events, as are all the rabid boxing fans that are in the El Paso area. At 1:00 p.m. PT/4:00 ET on CBS we have the always exciting heavyweight star Chris Arreola as well as the U.S. debut of super bantamweight world champion Carl Frampton.

 

Shortly you’ll hear from both Chris and Carl as well as Carl’s promoter Barry McGuigan. Interesting note about Barry McGuigan, obviously a Hall of Famer in his own right. Barry McGuigan appeared in one of the first televised bouts ever on SHOWTIME back in 1986 against Steve Cruz. Unfortunately he didn’t win that night, but he was one of the very first televised events on SHOWTIME. It’s a pleasure to have him back.

 

Then in the evening portion of the telecast on SHOWTIME, 7:00 p.m. PT/10:00 p.m. ET we have what is now a three fight card. Happy to announce that we’ve added a third fight to the card, the very exciting Amir Imam will be taking on Fernando Angulo in a super lightweight title eliminator.

 

Then we are also excited to have a super flyweight world championship McJoe Arroyo, the exciting Puerto Rican star, against Arthur Villanueva. Of course the headliner is a battle of two very exciting Mexican fighters Julio Cesar Chavez, Jr. futhi Marcos Reyes.

 

Ngakho konke, kungaba usuku mlando kakhulu. Kuba Ngokuqinisekile engakaze ibonwe kwaze kwayofika sikwazi kulo mdlalo. Manje Ngiya ukufulathela phezu ku Lisa.

 

L. Milner

Okay enkulu. Ngiyabonga kakhulu kangaka futhi thina nje ukuya ngqo phambili futhi bazohlanganisa Chris “The Nightmare” Arreola. Chris ngicela wenze isitatimende kuvulwa nje mayelana ekamu lokuqeqeshela bese sizovula it up for imibuzo?

 

Chris Arreoloa

Well Ngingumfana lapha e Riverside ukuqeqeshwa. Ingihlabe lapha kule minyaka amasonto ayisikhombisa ukusebenza kanzima, igaya nsuku zonke, ukuzilungisa for kule mpi enkulu El Paso. Uyazi El Paso kuyinto enkulu impi edolobheni futhi Ngibheke phambili bembonisa yami amakhono isibhakela okubonisa wonke umuntu ukuthi ngithole namanje ngiyitholile futhi Ngisakhuluphele ibutho esinamandla futhi Ngiya for the run isihloko aphinde.

 

Q

Mane ukhulume kancane ngalokhu impi olandelayo futhi owayephikisana yakho. Yini oyaziyo ngaye? Futhi ziyini izihluthulelo ngawe?

 

C. Arreola

I know that he’s a very slick fighter, a very slick boxer, a boxer that switches a lot, switches from left to righty, depending on the kind of options that you offer them. And the thing that I’m going to need to do is use a lot of my angles and give him a different view because he’s a very skilled fighter and I want to take him out as soon as I can because they don’t pay me overtime. And the El Paso fans deserve a good outing from me.

 

Q

I know you’ve had a couple of title shots in your career, Chris, and I know there’s been some talk of you getting another title shot in September. What’s your focus right now? What’s your mentality like?

 

C. Arreola

My focus right now, it’s the 18th. That’s my one and only focus because without that win, there is no title shot. You’re only as good as your last win, and that’s the way I feel. So all the talk is just talk. It doesn’t mean anything until I win this fight. Then we can really talk about it. So first things first is the 18th. I want to make sure that I put on a good fight because Fred is a good fighter and when I beat him I want to beat him in a fashion that people want to see me fight Wilder, not just have it given to me.

 

I want to deserve that title fight. I want people to want to see that fight. So that’s my main goal of this fight, to showcase my skills and show everybody that I deserve another title shot.

 

Q

Chris is there an ideal weight for you to fight at and what do you plan to come in, tip the scales at on fight night?

 

C. Arreola

My main goalfirst and foremost my main thing is being in boxing shape. My weight doesn’t reflect my training. The main thing is I want to be a good boxing weight and great boxing weight in order for me to go the full ten rounds, in order for me to throw 80 to 100 punches around. That is my main goal is to showcase my boxing skills.

 

As far as boxing weight, if I had an optimal weight, it would be in the mid-240s, like 44, 45, at the lowest maybe 42, but for this fight I’m thinking I’m going to come in in the high 40s, — 47, 48. Kodwa into eyinhloko El Paso abalandeli uya ukubona isibhakela isisindo omuhle wesibhakela impi enkulu ngokwami.

 

Q

Kanjani usebenzisa usayizi wesithombe sakho inzuzo? Kanjani usebenzisa usayizi wesithombe sakho inzuzo yokulwa Umphikisi, ikakhulukazi kule impi ekhuphuka? Indlela ozokusebenzisa ukuthi inzuzo une?

 

C. Arreola

Phela kuze kufike isisindo sami inzuzo, kungcono more ufanele ukuphoqelela intando yakho. Ufanele ukuphoqelela intando yakho kuze kufike ukusunduza naye emuva. Pushing him back is smart with the jab and making sure I keep him in his heels because I don’t want him being on his toes because he’s very good on his toes.

 

So the main thing I have to do is impose my will, moving my head, working behind the jab, and pushing it back to the ropes. Once I push his back to the ropes, it’s trying to work his body from the body to the head. We love working the body.

 

That’s what I’m going to plan to do, is make sure that he knows that he’s in a fight, make sure that he understands that every time I touch him I don’t touch him to touch him, I touch him to hurt him.

 

Q

What does it mean to fight on network television, which everybody gets?

 

C. Arreola

Honestly it’s a privilege and an honor to be fighting on national network TV where everyone gets it. It’s different to hear of regular persona person that doesn’t even know boxingknow some boxers. Like I’ve been hit up by a guy like, “Hey do you know Keith Thurman?”

 

They never watched a boxing fight in their life. But the fact that now it’s on NBC, CBS, and all the three networks, people are able to watch boxers and showcase their skills. That’s one thing that I’m so happy and honored to do is that it’s not just a casual boxing fans but it’s anyone. Anyone could watch me fight, and that’s pretty dope. That’s really an honor and just drives me to want to display my skills a lot more, azi ukuthi kukhona kuzoba izethameli ebanzi engibukisisa.

 

Q

Chris. Bengizibuza nje ukuthi ucabangeni ukusebenza Wilder emelene Molina futhi ingabe wamangala ukuthi Molina wakwazi amnike inkathazo ukuthi Ukucabangela lokho okwenze kuye ekuzimiseleni kwakho?

 

C. Arreola

Ukuze sibe qotho nawe, lapho ngangibuka ukuthi impi bengingacabangi ukuthi kwathiwa uyohlala ezimbili, emahlandla lamatsatfu. Ngokwami ​​ngicabanga ukuthi Wilder amyisa. Kokuthoma ngicabanga Wilder wayefuna ukuthola ngokwakhe uphetha. I don’t think that Wilder was really trying to take him out until he actually pushed on the gas.

 

Sometimes trying to showcase you get caught and he got caught a couple times with some stupid shots that he should never have been caught with. That’s why I never want to go rounds. I don’t care who it is. I want to get him out of there as soon as I can because all it takes is one punch to get knocked out.

 

I honestly believe that Wilder was just showcasing. I believe that Wilder was just carrying him to fight. I take nothing out of that fight. I take no honor in me taking Molina out quicker than him.

 

Q

Does it encourage you if you were able to get the opportunity to fight him?

 

C. Arreola

It didn’t encourage me. It didn’t make me feel any better, any different. What I got to see more off of him is when he fought Stiverne. Now that fight was a good fight. That fight is a fight that I see a lot out of Wilder and a lot of mistakes, a lot of good and a lot of bad in Wilder.

 

As far as him fighting Molina, did it encourage me? Man, ngokwethembeka, I don’t fear anybody. I love fighting. I want to fight him just because I want to fight him, especially now since he has a title. And do I believe I could fight him? Yes and I believe that he hasn’t been in the ring with someone like me, someone that really doesn’t give a crap.

 

Uyazi, I really don’t care about myself. I really care about winning the fight. I’m willing to put my life on the life because I want to win a fight. Now the time that I cried when my trainer stopped me, I didn’t cry because he said I quit or anything. I didn’t quit. I cried because of my pride. I’m a prideful man. I have too much fight for myself. And to quit, that’s horrible.

 

L. Milner

Ngibonga kakhulu. If you give just one quick closing comment and then we’ll move on to Carl Frampton.

 

C. Arreola

Okay, well I’m really looking forward to July 18 to showcase my skills in front of the whole United States to watch showcase boxing. I’m happy that we’re up here and I can’t wait to showcase my skills in El Paso, Texas which I know has been hungry for big fights. See you on the 18th.

 

L. Milner

Perfect, ngiyabonga. Okay now I am delighted to introduce Carl Frampton and his Hall of Famer manager Barry McGuigan. We also have Alejandro on the line. But before we have him make an opening statement I did want Carl and Barry to say a few words.

 

Carl Frampton

I’m just looking forward to the fight. I think it’s going to be a good fight. Kind of reiterating what Chris just said there now, it’s giving me a chance to showcase my talents on CBS, terrestrial TV in the U.S., also terrestrial television in the U.K. on ITV. So I’m really looking forward to a good fight.

 

Barry McGuigan

Just to reiterate that point, as a manager and a former world champion myself, my name was sort of written in stone 30 years ago because I appeared on terrestrial TV. It’s been that way for a long time, and I think what PBC is doing – kuhle ukuba elihlobene go-to nsizwa okwamanje wesibhakela.

 

Ukuze uthole ithelevishini abalandeli yasemhlabeni anentshisekelo wesibhakela, abayitoho boxing fans, hhayi nje aficionados kodwa abantu ngobuqotho of isithakazelo abayitoho isibhakela kodwa ones sizolinda kulwelwa big. Ngicabanga ukuthi hhayi nje Carl Frampton enkulu kodwa enkulu bonke fighters umthethosivivinywa uhambe bese esikhulu wesibhakela in general.

 

Ngakho thina uku ayajabula kube lapha. Sesikhathele kakade El Paso. Carl is expecting a tough fight from Alejandro, and we’re very much looking forward to it.

 

L. Milner

Okay, wonderful. We actually also have Alejandro Gonzalez, Jr. on the line. Alejandro could you make an opening comment just about how training camp’s going and preparing for Carl?

 

Alejandro Gonzalez

Well, we’re preparing 100% because we’re going to fight a great champion so we need to be 100% ready with the preparations.

Q

Your name is not relatively known to the casual American boxing fan and in this fight you’re going to get massive exposure to American boxing time basically. What does that mean to you?

 

C. Frampton

That means a lot, that’s something me and my time have discussed, I’m pretty well known in the UK and Ireland but in the United States, unless you’re a diehard boxing fan you won’t know who Carl Frampton is.

 

So this is giving me the chance for a lot of exposure on terrestrial television. Kuyinto enkulu. Ngicabanga boxing uye uhlobo iye elonakele. Kungcono sport for isigaba sabasebenzi nabantu ukusebenza isigaba sabantu abayi ukukubona ngoba kube bafihliwe iziteshi satellite isikhathi eside kangaka.

 

Ngakho lokhu olukhulu kimi, kahle hhayi nje mina for isibhakela futhi ngenxa yethu enhle entsha team asetshenzisiwe Cyclone ukukhushulwa ukuze babe munye fighters zabo tikhombise nhlangothi zombili Atlantic.

 

Q

What was the main reason that you decided to jump on board with Al Haymon and make a trip over to the United States?

 

Carl Frampton

Well we discussed it with our team and it was a pretty easy decision to be honest. I think the exposure that we can get with Al Haymon is absolutely massive and huge.

 

Even more so than that he’s got a lot of the top fighters around the super bantamweight division all these names that I want to fight, uyazi, Leo Santa Cruz, Abner Mares, Gary Russell those sort of fighters that he’s got that Al Haymon controls.

 

So without linking up with him it would have been pretty hard to make them fights. So it was a pretty easy decision. We are very grateful for the opportunity here.

 

As I said before to the answer previously it’s giving me a chance for massive exposure here and that’s really the big thing, exposure both sides of the Atlantic.

 

B. McGuigan

If I could add to that, there isn’t any bigger than Al Haymon at the moment. If you want to get into the American market and the reality is Carl is a superstar in Britain and in Europe and in Ireland and the reality is when your career is dead and buried all they remember is the stuff you’ve done in the United States.

 

So it’s a very important decision for us to come over here and try and be impressive and trying to make a name for ourselves.

 

Q

How much of that went into your decision to come over here and expand the market and be able to touch on those big fights against Leo Santa Cruz, Gary Russell or even Abner Mares if he can upset Leo in August.

 

B. McGuigan

Here’s the thing, here’s the thing again there are at the last count 27 million people of Irish descent in America I think that’s on the East Coast actually. So we want to get into that market.

 

It’s a great market, we need to get as many people on our side as possible and we have great respect for Alejandro and his dad. He’s got a great Mexican boxing heritage and obviously that’s the fight that we’re looking at and concentrating on at the moment.

 

But it would be foolish certainly of me not to look ahead and plan ahead and think about what are the super fights out there for us and that is against Leo Santa Cruz and Abner Mares, Gary Russell and I believe Frampton can to go 130 as well and be successful there.

 

But one stage at a time and we’re not taking our eyes off the ball on the 18th. It’s a very tough fight for us, Alejandro is a great fighter.

 

C. Frampton

I just agree 100% on everything that Barry said. If you want to do anything in America at the minute the way boxing is going Al Haymon is the man to link up with and we’ve done that.

 

I’m very pleased with doing that. Me and the team are all very pleased and we think that things are just really going to kick off. But again it’s one fight at a time.

 

I’m not looking past Alejandro. I leave it to my manager Barry and the rest of the team to think ahead but for me I just think about the fighter in front of me and that’s Alejandro .

 

He’s the only guy I’ve been thinking about for the last 14 week training camp and that’s the way it will remain until the fight.

 

Q

I’m just wondering what your thoughts are on adopting fighting on the East Coast, beginning to draw in some of those new American Irish boxing fans who may not be familiar with you yet?

 

C. Frampton

That’s where we want to be, we want to be on the East Coast. We want to be fighting around the East Coast, I-New York, Madison Square Garden, Barclays Center, those sort of places, Boston potentially as well.

 

I’m hoping that there is already talk about my next fight I’m not too sure where it will be but good chance my next fight could be in the UK and Ireland again somewhere.

 

Then we’d be looking to go to New York or the east coast. I think that’s where my American fan base will be, mainly on the East Coast.

 

I think they’ll appreciate the way I fight. It’s all well and good me winning fights but I think what the Americans and boxing fans want to see is exciting fighters and I think that I’ve got an exciting style to please them.

 

So East Coast is where we want to be. I think El Paso was the only matinee show that we could link up with British TV Time. So it’s setting pretty in the UK at the minute, it’s being shown at around 10:00 pm out of the UK.

 

That’s why we had to go to El Paso but, uyazi, I’m very happy for this chance to fight here but of course I want to fight on the East Coast.

 

B. McGuigan

Can I also add to that, what we see and Carl wants to do what GGG has done. We want to get the Mexicans fans on our site too and obviously the fight against Alejandro on the 18th of July is a fight that we, that Carl must win, he must win impressively. Sethemba ukuthi ngeke amavoti ukwesekwa ezinye kusuka abalandeli Mexican kakhulu futhi ukuthi bayokwazisa isitayela Carl sika.

 

Q

Yini it like esebenza Barry futhi hlobo luni lwezinto Ufundeni kuye ngesikhathi sakho ndawonye?

 

C. Frampton

Well kuhle. Ingihlabe nge Barry kusukela eminyakeni eyisithupha edlule. Ekuqaleni ekuqaleni I wayenze okuningi lokuqeqeshwa Barry kanye yena the best for me futhi ehamba nami ngokusebenzisa ukuzozilolonga.

 

Ngangihlala endlini yakhe ngesikhathi ngaqeqeshwa eNgilandi, the South of England. I abe nobuhlobo obuhle kakhulu Barry kanye nawo wonke umkhaya wakhe. Indodana yakhe manje ukuqeqesha kimi ngomzuzu futhi uhlobo wathatha izintambo.

 

Barry ungaphakathi ejimini izinsuku kakhulu. Uyafika futhi sibuka nami Spar futhi kuye kwaba kanye ukwenzile, akwenzile kuwo wonke futhi kuba iseluleko nsuku zonke umuntu owenze lokho kungcono kusobala enkulu futhi inenzuzo kakhulu kimi.

 

Ngingumfana 28 engamashumi angiyena umfana omncane emhlabeni kodwa ngisazimisele like Ngifunda sonke isikhathi. Ngisazimisele like sengiba kangcono futhi ngizama nje futhi bathele ukwaziswa okuningi up engingakwenza.

 

Q

Barry fantshi you fikisa kuye Ngicabanga mayelana iseluleko in the nithi yini ufune njengoba enaka phambili emsebenzini wakhe?

 

B. McGuigan

Ngicabanga Carl Frampton kungenye yezindlela ezingcono kakhulu Irish fighters ukuthi kukhona owake nokuthi isitatimende ngesibindi futhi yena 28 ubudala, yena ngokulandelana 28 kodwa physiologically yena kuphela insizwa ngenxa yendlela lwempi, indlela isitayela sakhe iyona.

 

Akenzi ukuthatha eziningi isijeziso futhi angakwazi ebhokisini uya emuva, uya phambili futhi ngicabanga ukuthi ngayithola isitayela olukhulu ukulwa. Ngicabanga baseMelika bazoya zokumthanda futhi ziyi-18 kuNtulikazi iyona impi lapho senza isinyathelo bethu bokuqala futhi ngikholwa ukuthi kuzoba nethonya elikhulu.

 

Silindele impi ezinqala kodwa Ngikholelwa ngempela ukuthi Carl has kokubili ubuntu, udlambedlu isitayela kanye engasenathonya ukuthi zisebenze phezu lapha, I believe we’re on the threshold of something very big.

 

Q

Barry does it bring back a lot of memories for you seeing Carl.

 

B. McGuigan

The next best thing to actually fighting yourself is being involved with young men and developing talent and as you come along through your career and I’m sure the same is with Alejandro ‘s dad.

 

Being involved with kids and developing them, especially if they are your own child and often Carl feels like he is part of the family. He’s been involved so long and he’s a really talented kid. He’s very dedicated and it’s great to see him make progress.

 

For me vicariously I love and appreciate all of the things that he’s doing and making the progress he’s making and turning into the fighter that I always believed he could.

 

Q

What do you see as being the potential for you fighting either or both Guillermo Rigondeaux and Scot Quigg?

 

C. Frampton

Bheka, I would like to fight them all. I think the situation with Quigg is he’s outpricing himself on a fight. He thinks he’s worth more than what he is. I was always told by my mother growing up never to sell myself short so I’m not going to sell myself short to Scott Quigg or Eddie Hearn.

 

I think the Rigondeaux fight is a great possibility. There’s rumors that he may be linking up with Al Haymon and if he does link up with Al Haymon then of course the fight would be easier to make. I believe I could win.

 

You ukubheka Rigondeaux futhi ngiyayithanda ngokuphelele lokho akwenzayo futhi ukulwa kwakhe isitayela, kodwa Ngicabanga ukuthi indoda kuphela division Super Bantamweight ukuthi ungakwazi ukuwunqoba naye. Sengilungele ukuthatha ukuthi impi noma nini kuziwa.

 

Q

Koze kube nini ubona wena nangokunamathela bezungeza 122?

 

C. Frampton

Well Angikwazi ukuhlala lapha isikhathi eside ngangokunokwenzeka. Ngicabanga nginga cishe, uma ngifuna ukuba, I kungaba career super bantamweight. Ngikuthola ukuthi ngenza the division isisindo lula kancane kancane nge ekamu ngalinye.

 

Kodwa Ngingumfana big super bantamweight. I think Alejandro is maybe a few inches taller than me. He’s about five foot seven area. I’m about five foot five.

 

Ngikhathazekile strong. Ngingumfana kakhulu, very solid. I’m quite a super bantamweight. But if I wanted I could just stay here for the rest of my career. But I think it’s some sort of legacy and it’s important to move up the weight divisions. I think I would be very dangerous as well.

 

B. McGuigan

Very simple situation with Scott Quigg. Scott Quigg has got the regular title. Scott Quigg has never headlined to show, although he’s a champion and I really respect the guy. He thinks I don’t, but I do. I just want to set the record straight in America too. He’s a decent fighter, no question about it.

 

He never has fought the level of opposition Carl has fought. The real champion is Guillermo Rigondeaux. Scott Quigg doesn’t merit 50% of the purse. Carl has won all his title fights. He’s taken risks. He’s buying out arenas. He’s been a headline act; all of the things that Quigg has not done. Quigg got WBA isihloko njalo. The real champion is Guillermo Rigondeaux.

 

Uma Hearn wakubeka emahlombe akhe ukuba ahambe bese ubuza, Wahamba ngemuva ezinkalweni zethu futhi sambuza ukulwa babengase ajeziswe kanzima njengoba impi ubunye. Watshelwa akekho ngoba iqhawe kwangempela Guillermo Rigondeaux.

 

Ngakho Sinalokhu engqondweni, asifuni isihloko njalo. Asifanele nesithakazelo isihloko njalo. We unentshisekelo ukulwa, kodwa hhayi ukuthi isihloko.

 

Thina Yebo nesithakazelo isihloko emhlabeni Guillermo Rigondeaux sika Super. Lokho-ke udaba olwehlukile. But the fact is, if we’re going to Manchester, we’re putting Carl’s credibility on the line and we’re going into his home first.

 

When you come into this fight with a voluntary defense, the guy gets as much as the champion wants to pay him. Or even in the mandatory position, it’s still a 75/25% situation. So we said we’d star at 70/30 but the least we would take would be 60/40, and they wouldn’t play ball. It’s as simple as that.

 

So the fight doesn’t matter and therefore we now have a situation where we can fight a number of these great guys, provided Carl gets back and gets past Alejandro on the 18th of July.

 

Q

How much of an adjustment is it going to be for you not being in that arena full of the big supporting crowd for you?

 

C. Frampton

I think it will be absolutely fine. I’ve boxed all over the world as an amateur. I’ve boxed away from home a lot of the time. I’ve been in very, very hostile environments in Turkey. I remember Turkey being extremely hostile for some reason and I went out there and beat three Turks three years in a row.

 

Q

Have you noticed any difference around since that fight on ITV?

 

C. Frampton

I get recognized a lot, but obviously back home in Belfast it’s very good, and especially around a fight. It’s hard to kind of go anywhere without someone coming and asking for a photograph or even just to shake your hand, which I don’t mind at all. I enjoy it and I enjoy people’s company and I enjoy chatting to him.

 

In London since the last fight it has got a little bit better. Well better or worse; whatever you want to call it. People are approaching me a little bit more. But I can still go fairly unrecognizable in London.

 

It’s all about the change. We’re fighting here on CBS here. I’m fighting on ITV at prime timea prime time slot. We don’t have any other big shows to go up against. The last time I fought it was pretty late on ITV much of the day and stuff was on at the same time.

 

So they took a lot of viewing figures we’re expecting to do about a million viewers here, and obviously when you do that, more people are going to recognize you in the street.

 

Q

Did you get any feedback from ITV?

 

C. Frampton

I think they were over the moon with it and that’s why this came back and they’re showing another. You know if they weren’t happy with it they wouldn’t have put me back on again. That’s the bottom line.

 

So ITV were very happy. They were very happy with their viewing figures and they want to continue a relationship with us and that continues with the fight on the 18th against Alejandro.

 

L. Milner

Okay, omkhulu. We’re actually going to take one question for Alejandro and then we have to move on to Julio Cesar Chavez. So can we please have this question for Alejandro and then we will turn it over.

 

Q

Alejandro you’ve fought before at the Sun Bowl on the Julio Cesar Chavez undercard. Ingabe ufuna ukucasula Carl Frampton ngale ndlela lapha ukwethusa emhlabeni?

 

A. Gonzalez

Yebo, lokhu kuzoba isikhathi sami sesibili ibambene ngezihluthu undercard Chavez sika, kodwa Ngijabule kakhulu ukulwa fighter enkulu. Kodwa ubaba wangitshela, uma ufuna ukuba umhlabeleli kufanele silwe the best. Ngakho yilokho Ngicabanga ukuthi Carl Frampton ingenye best of the Champs bantamweight.

 

Q

Ingabe ubheke phambili ekulweni phambi elikhulu crow Mexican-American in El Paso?

 

A. Gonzalez

Yebo, kunjalo. In El Paso kukhona inqwaba yabantu Mexican. Like I nje wathi, Chavez abazobe kuleyo mpi nokuthi yena a Mexican. Ngakho has a lot of isixuku. I Ziningi isixuku futhi kuzoba empini enkulu futhi abantu abaningi futhi eziningi Mexican nabantu American in the lwa.

 

L. Milner

Asinaye Julio Cesar Chavez on the line ukuze sesikude sifinyelele phezu kuze SHOWTIME

 

Julio Cesar Chavez

Ngiyajabula kakhulu ukuthi sekuseduze ukuba ukulwa. I abe amasonto amahlanu (Robert) ngalungela 100% ngoba impi. Ngizizwa ngikulungele ukulwa.

 

Q

July, ungumuntu njalo umuntu othembekile. You’ve always been very sincere about everything. And my question to you is, whether the biggest enemy of your career has been Julio Cesar Chavez, ngokwakhe?

 

J. Cesar Chavez

I haven’t been 100% all the time, but my career has had lots of accomplishments. I was the first Mexican to win the Middleweight World Champion. I’ve been a World Champion. I’ve defended my belt. In addition to that I’ve beaten really great fighters. And I have a record of 48 futhi 2. And so it’s not fair to say that I haven’t accomplished a lot and haven’t been prepared all the time. But this is a great challenge.

 

Q

Do you feel you owe the public a great performance?

 

J. Cesar Chavez

Obviously I have to win this fight. I have to be great.

 

I took on a challenge that was tough. I fought somebody who was 175 amakhilogremu. I fought somebody after two years of being inactive.

 

There were a lot of things going on in my career including the legal problems that I was going through at the same that I was trying to get ready for a fight. It was a tough challenge.

 

Even though it was a defeat for me I feel like I was a better fighter than him. But he was more prepared. I think that those were the factors. I plan to win this next fight.

 

L. Milner

Okay we actually have Marcos Reyes on the line before okay our next question I just want to let him say a few words about training camp.

 

Marco Reyes

Well I’ve been Mexico City for six weeks right now in camp with Nacho Beristain, my trainer right now. A number of you have been excited for that fight July 18 which I’m going to face with Julio Chavez and I’m going to be in great shape for it.

 

Q

Nacho Beristain says that Julio changing trainers is not the issue, that it’s a personal and a mental issue and that’s the problem. Do you have a response?

 

J. Cesar Chavez

Robert Garcia is a great trainer. He has respect for a lot of people. He’s a respected trainer. I don’t understand what Nacho Beristain’s problem is.

 

He has in the past criticized me and he’s also criticized other people. In his career he goes around criticizing people. Kodwa, the facts are different.

 

I’m is first Mexican middleweight champion. I’ve only had two defeats. One was number two pound fighter which is Martinez. And I knocked him down, almost knocked him out, almost finished the right.

 

My second was against a natural 175 pounder who was ranked number four in the world who’s a very top level fighter.

 

So on July 18 I plan to show Nacho Beristain and everybody else that I’m one of the greatest fighters.

 

Q

Julio have you ever thought about losing again since you lost again what would happen in your career with another defeat?

 

J. Cesar Chavez

I’m not planning on losing. I’m planning on winning. When I fight at my weight I can beat anybody. There’s nobody in boxing who can beat me when I fight at my weight.

 

I feel right now that I’m at the best. I feel this is the best part of my career. And on July 18 I’m going to win.

 

If I lost this fight then it would make me think about retiring because this is not the type of rival that should beat me. The type of rivals that I fought are much better and tougher than this rival.

Q

What big name are you thirsty for?

 

J. Cesar Chavez

Well firstly I respect my opponent a lot. All opponent are dangerous because Reyes, he’s a tough guy.

 

I have big plans for the division, I will fight anyone out there.

 

But now I focus on Reyes. After that it’s whatever opponent comes. I’m ready for whatever name

 

I fight for the people and if the people want a big name I will fight anyone

 

L. Milner

Okay. Julio could you just close out today as you wrap up training camp and head into fight week in El Paso?

 

J. Cesar Chavez

I feel ready to show the people a great fight. I’m ready to show the people my great fighting and I hope they enjoy the fights. Because two Mexican fighters in the ring every time makes a great fight.

 

I want to send a big hug to all of the people in El Paso. I hope that they come out and support both fighters. This is going to be a great fight between two Mexican fighters.

 

But obviously I intend on winning this fight. And most importantly I plan on giving the fans a great fight on July 18.
