CARSON, Calif. (Apríl 18, 2015) – Confident and determined, Andrzej “The PolishPrince” Fonfara (27-3, 16 Kos) spoiled the ring return of Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. (48-2-1, 32 Kos) in resounding fashion Laugardagur nótt, flooring the former middleweight champion one time en route to a one-sided ninth-round TKO in the main event ofShowtime CHAMPIONSHIP Hnefaleikar lifa á Showtime.

 

Fonfara, of Chicago by way of Radon, Pólland, dropped Chavez, of Culiacan, Sinaloa, Mexico, with a wide left hook 50 seconds into the ninth round before a boisterous crowd of 8,636 predominately-Chavez fans at StubHub Center. It was the first time in 52 professional fights that Chavez had hit the canvas from a punch.

 

Upon returning to the corner, Chavez could be heard on the telecast telling trainer Joe Goossen that he had hurt his right leg and could no longer continue. Augnablikum síðar, the fight was halted. The busier and more accurate fighter throughout, Fonfara was comfortably ahead on the three judges’ scorecards by scored of 89-80 og 88-81 twice after nine full rounds.

 

Offered an ecstatic Fonfara, who had his fair share of Polish fans at the venue: “I knew he was a tough fighter, quick and in good shape but when he hit me for the first time in the first round, I knew I was going to win this fight. He didn’t punch as hard as everybody said he did.

 

“I saw his punches easily coming in. I know I threw more punches. I was a little surprised that he did not come out for the (10th) but he was cut, had been getting beat up and had just got knocked down, so he knew what would happen if he came out.

 

“Chavez said before the fight that he didn’t think I could take his body punches. I think I took them pretty good and passed that test.

 

“I know there are things I can still work on in training to become a more complete boxer, enkvöld was a dream come true. I want a rematch with (Light Heavyweight World Champion) Adonis Stevenson.

 

Said Chavez, the son of legendary Mexican icon, Julio Cesar Chavez Sr. in the ring afterward and before he was taken to the hospital as a precautionary measure, “Kannski 170,172 pounds is too big for me, maybe I’ll go back down. I’m not sure what my future holds. It was a very tough fight. But I congratulate Andrzej.”

 

Goossen told reporters afterward that he had “stopped the fight. It was my decision. I didn’t like what I saw. ”

 

In the first half of a SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING doubleheader, undefeated world-ranked super lightweight Amir I (17-0, 14 Kos), of Davie, Fla., með því Albany, N.Y., won a lopsided 10-round decision over Walter “The Hammer” Castle.

 

The talented, versatile, Ég hef, 24, controlled a fight that featured numerous exchanges especially early on with a left jab and straight right hand.

 

“My combinations were effective the whole night, we stuck to our gameplan and came out victorious,” said Imam. “I want any of the world champions next”.

 

Castle, who saw a nine-fight winning streak come to an end, sagði “I thought I won the fight. I didn’t get credit for the punches I threw. The judge who scored it 100-90; vel, that gives me no chance to win here. The cut bothered me in the early rounds, but was not a factor after.”

 

Fyrr Laugardagur, on SHOWTIME EXTREME, undefeated Moises “El Chucky” Blóm (23-0, 16 Kos), Guadalajara, Mexico, captured the WBA Super Bantamweight Interim World Championship with a thrilling 12-round split decision over defending champion Oscar Escandon (24-2 16 Kos), of Tolima, Colombia.

 

Blóm, gerð hans 2015 debut and third start in a row in the United States, sigraði með skori 116-112 tvisvar og 113-115.

 

An emotional Flores was near tears afterward. “Þetta er draumur að rætast – more than a dream come true – for me,” sagði hann. “I saw my family on the beach, eating meat. I saw my babies better dressed. For me this is a life-changing victory and, já, I thought it was very, very close but I absolutely feel I won.

 

“I want to fight the best next, the top guys at 122 pounds and right now the top guy is Leo Santa Cruz. That’s who I’d like to fight next. I really want to thank all my team, from top to bottom, for giving me this wonderful opportunity. We’re very happy that we joined the Al Haymon team. We’re very loyal and we just really appreciate everything they’ve done for us.”

 

Escandon felt he’d done enough to win despite injuring the right index finger on his right hand in the seventh round.

“I did all that I could, everything was in my reach, but I think I broke or fractured my finger,” sagði hann. “In boxing things happen that are out of your control. Because I hurt my hand, I couldn’t throw punches the way I wanted to with my right hand. I tried to do all I could with it. But I didn’t want to injure it further. I’m OK, but I definitely would love a rematch.”

 

In the SHOWTIME EXTREME co-feature, frábær welterweight Omar “El Businessman”Chavez (33-3-1, 22 Kos), of Culiacan, the younger brother of Chavez, Jr. and son of legendary Julio Cesar Sr., won an exciting, harður-fought, give-and-take eight-round unanimous decision over Richard Gutierrez (28-16-1, 17 Kos), of Arjona, Colombia.

What the fighters, trainers and executives said Fimmtudagur:

 

JULIO CESAR CHAVEZ JR., Fyrrverandi heimsmeistari

“I had a great training camp. I feel better than ever. I am ready for the fight.

 

“I know that this is a new weight class for me. I realize that Fonfara is very tough and bigger than me, but I am up for the challenge.

 

“I have worked on my boxing during my one year off, and I am very excited and motivated to get back in the ring.

 

“I have worked so hard for this fight because I am fighting in a new weight class. I must punch harder, so I have focused on getting stronger during this training camp.

 

“I have a great chin, I know how to take punches and my conditioning is great. A lot of fighters can take a punch, but I can take multiple punches and not be hurt.

 

“I think that Andrzej Fonfara is one of the best fighters in the light heavyweight division. Inside of boxing, everyone knows who Fonfara is. He knocked down one of the best boxers in the world in Adonis Stevenson.

 

“Fonfara is disciplined in the ring, but he doesn’t vary his punches.

 

“I understand that my dad didn’t want me to take this fight. I had bigger names I could’ve fought, but I think that Fonfara is a great challenge for me and I like the challenge.

 

“I would like to thank SHOWTIME for making this fight happen.”

 

Andrzej Fonfara, World Title Challenger

“I’m prepared very well and I’m ready for this fight. It’s been a great camp like always. I train hard for each fight. I’m a tough boxer who is feeling great. The weight is good and everything is perfect.

 

“I must put everything into Laugardagur night and I will win the fight.

 

“I must look even better than I did against Stevenson. Everyone said I looked good, but I lost the fight. I didn’t want congratulations because I did not win the fight. But this time I will win the fight. I’m ready for a decision or for a knockout.

 

“I’m ready with a couple of plans. I don’t want to run around the ring, I want to fight tough. I’m going to use my jab and my right hand, which is my best punch.

 

“I’m not worried about what his father said about not fighting me. Chavez Jr. wants to fight and I will show him that his father was right.

 

“It doesn’t matter how I win, I want to win this fight and get my rematch with Adonis Stevenson.

 

“Chavez Jr. er a mikill bardagamaður. He uses a lot of combinations and has a powerful punch that I must be ready for. I want to show the whole world how good I am when I win this fight á laugardag.

 

“If I get the chance, Ég ætla að knýja hann út. It’s boxing so you never know what will happen. I want to box round-by-round and win this fight.

 

“I lost the fight with Stevenson but I showed that I was a good boxer. I’m a much smarter fighter now because of that experience. That was a fight at the top championship level.

 

“It doesn’t matter what Chavez Jr. says at a press conference, we’ll be in the ring Laugardagurand everything will happen there.

 

“Fan’s can expect heavy punches, knockdowns and a great fight.”

 

Amir LOVE, Undefeated Super Léttur Contender

“I’m confident going into this fight because of how I train. I have put my heart and soul into this sport since I moved to Florida three years ago. I left everything behind to better myself.

 

“I’m going to stay smart and composed in there and do everything I can to get the win.

 

“I don’t feel like I need the knockout to come away with a successful fight. En, you better believe that if there is an opportunity to knock him out, then I will take advantage of it.

 

“Í 2015, Ég vil verða heimsmeistari. This is my breakout year. A lot of people have been buzzing about me. I want to become the WBC world champion, that’s what I’m heading for.

 

“Ég veit að hann er [Castle] a good opponent, he’s got a great resume, and he’s coming to fight. He has a great record, so that alone shows what he’s capable of. Svo sem eins og Laugardagur night may the better man win.

 

“I’ve boxed styles like [hans] plenty of times, but you never know, he could come out different Laugardagurnótt.

 

“I’m ready to put on a great show for the SHOWTIME audience.”

 

CASTILLO WALTER, Super Léttur Contender

“I’m coming here to fight. I can tell you one thing, Amir Imam made a big mistake by taking this fight.

 

“I’ve fought a lot of tough fighters; my two losses were by decisions where I feel I was robbed. I’ve fought better fighters than Amir has.

 

“Svo sem eins og Laugardagur, I’m going to announce to the whole world that Walter Castillo is here to stay and he’s going to be a world champion.”

SR JULIO CESAR CHAVEZ.

“Being in Los Angeles is like being in Mexico for me; I have had many great memories. I became the world champion for this first time here and my son also became the world champion for the first time here, of.

 

“Julio definitely has a very difficult fight ahead of him.

 

“If I was Julio’s manager, I wouldn’t have taken this fight. Fonfara is a difficult and tough fighter.

 

“My son wants to fight fighters of quality and wants credibility in boxing.

 

“Julio has worked and trained very hard for this fight .He has the capability to win and we expect that it will go very well.”

 

JOE GOOSSEN, Chavez’ Trainer

“Julio has a window here the next five, six, seven years that he can capitalize on.

 

“I think he’s left the childish stuff behind, and we’re all guilty of being childish.

 

“I think that Julio has surprised his father with his determination heading into this fight.

He’s got a left hook to the liver that just sends a shock through your body.

 

“He’s not soft. He’s a real fighter. I have been around enough fighters to know that he’s a real fighter. Númer eitt, he has the never-say- die attitude in there.

 

“We’re up against a very well-schooled, blue collar, workmanlike fighter in Fonfara.

 

“He is an athletic, improvisational fighter, in that you don’t know where everything’s coming from.

 

“I’ve watched a lot of Fonfara tape, and he pretty much repeats what he does, but he repeats it well.

 

“This is going to be a battle. You’ve got two contrasting styles and personalities.

 

“Julio has 51 fights under his belt. He’s no rookie and he comes from a great bloodline. (In the short time I’ve been with him, it has been) more of an association than a dictatorial effort between the two of us.

 

“Based on former camps, he’s never really extracted himself from comfortable surroundings and put himself in a position where he is completely isolated like he was in Lake Tahoe.”

 

SAM COLONNA, Fonfara’s Trainer

“Fonfara could turn it up whenever. He could be down on the scorecards and one punch he throws could change someone’s world. He’s proven in the past that he has power in both hands.

 

“The styles in this fight are perfect for each other. When people ask about the fight I say it could go either way, it depends on who catches the other first.

 

“I’m looking for Fonfara to dominate, but Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. is a warrior, he comes to fight, he knows how to go to the body like his father used to, so we’ve been working on all of these strategies.

 

“A knockout win would be a dream come true to me. That’s what I’ve been looking for all these years. Winning this huge fight would change everything for Fonfara and myself.

 

“This camp that Andrzej had was the best we’ve ever had. He worked hard, he had time to train and there’s no excuses.

 

“We’re coming to fight a war. Don’t forget that wars are won by strategy.

 

“People say to listen to your father. His father told him not to take this fight, but he took it anyway and that was a mistake.

 

“I see this fight not going past 10 umferðir, with us getting the knockout.”

 

STACY MCKINLEY, Trainer Imam er

“Amir has always trained very hard, but I did see a change in him in this training camp after the last fight. He has stepped up his training by two levels.

 

“He learned a lot about his fight against [Fidel Maldonado] under the bright SHOWTIME lights at the MGM Grand.

 

“Amir is always confident going into each fight, but he made a mistake in the Maldonado fight. He rolled his right hand and forgot about the left hand and was knocked down. He had to pay for his mistakes but it’s all a learning experience, he still has only 16 professional fights under his belt.

 

“Castillo has a great jab and good combinations. A guy like that throws a lot of punches, but there is a technique to breaking down a fighter like that.

 

“We can’t spend a lot of time on the ropes, and we must go after his body because his body is weak. Castillo is going to get knocked out á laugardag.

 

“I think that Amir is going to open up a lot of eyes á laugardag.”

VAN NUYS, Calif.(Apríl 13, 2015) – Fyrrum heimsmeistari Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. hélt fjölmiðla líkamsþjálfun á föstudaginn in front of a packed house at Ten Goose Boxing Gym in Van Nuys, Calif., as the Mexican superstar prepares to make his Showtime CHAMPIONSHIP Hnefaleikar® Frumraun á Laugardagur, Apríl 18, á að StubHub Center í Carson, Calif., lifa á Showtime(10 p.m. OG/7 p.m. PT).

 

Í aðalkeppni af Showtime CHAMPIONSHIP Hnefaleikardoubleheader, Mexican Superstar Chavez, Jr. (48-1-1, 32 Kos) meets dangerous brawler Andrzej Fonfara (26-3, 15 Kos) í 12-umferð ljós þungavigtar lota.

 

Í 10-umferð samhliða lögun, efst 10 ranked junior welterweight contender Amir I (16-0, 14 Kos) will aim to move one step closer to a world title opportunity when he makes his second start of 2015 against fellow power-puncher Walter Castillo (25-2, 18 Kos).

 

Julio Cesar Chavez, að öllum líkindum mesta Mexican bardagamaður allra tíma, gert betur á æfingu sonar síns til að sýna stuðning og bjóða orð hans hvatningu.

 

Hér er það sem Chavez Jr., Julio Cesar Chavez and Joe Goossen (þjálfari) þurfti að segja Föstudagur á Los Angeles-svæðinu ræktina:

 

JULIO CESAR CHAVEZ JR., Fyrrverandi heimsmeistari

“I am very focused going into this fight. I have changed a lot mentally this past year.

 

“I am fighting [Andrzej] Fonfara now because I like big opponents. I like the challenge of fighting good, hungry fighters. Just because Fonfara doesn’t have the name recognition of other fighters, it doesn’t make him an easy fighter. Hann er sterkur.

 

“I feel comfortable at light heavyweight. Any time that you can add a couple pounds, you feel better. Although I will be fighting at 175, I feel most comfortable at 168 sem Boxer. Since I have had one year off, it was a better choice to fight at this weight so that I could see how my body feels.

 

“Since I have added a few pounds, I have become a more physical and stronger boxer. The light heavyweight division has very big and physical contenders.

 

“Joe [Goossen] is a great trainer. He is a great motivator to his fighters and makes them better. I have worked very hard with him for the 35 days we spent together in Lake Tahoe.

 

“When I was training with Freddie Roach, it was very different. I think Freddie is a great trainer, but Joe also has a lot of experience and we have made a connection together.

 

“I really liked training in Lake Tahoe. The altitude, hringurinn, everything I needed was there. I felt very comfortable up there and I would like to come back there to train for a fight again.

 

“I promise a great fight, this is a very exciting fight. Fonfara isn’t an easy opponent, but he has never seen an opponent like me.”

 

 

SR JULIO CESAR CHAVEZ.

“I am here to support and be with my son. I try to give him good advice. I tell him to train and prepare hard, and fortunately he is doing that well.

 

“I think Joe [Goossen] is doing a great job, we are on the same page. We are all focused on him [Chavez Jr.] getting to the fight well prepared. This fight requires great preparation because he is going into the fight at a weight that’s higher than his normal weight and he is facing a very tough opponent.

 

“He must go in 100 percent to win this fight.

 

“I think there has been a 180 degree turn in his career. I see this as a positive because he can really develop his ability and looks very well prepared.

 

“I would’ve liked to have seen him take a tune up fight instead because of his long layoff; I particularly didn’t want this fight.

 

“Júlí [Chavez Jr.] wants credibility in this sport and that’s why he made the decision to take this fight, even though it’s a dangerous decision. He must be very prepared for this fight.”

 

JOE GOOSSEN, Chavez Jr.s’ Trainer

“I’ve been asked over the years who the one fighter was that I would like to work and my answer was always Julio Cesar Chavez Jr.

 

“I’ve always really admired his style. I had known him as a kid, his father is a legend. It had always seemed like a dream job for me, and out of nowhere I got it.

 

“Lake Tahoe was tremendous for training camp. You are isolated and it’s not an easy thing. When you aren’t training you are sitting in a hotel room. You are deprived the comforts of home, but it really gives you that concentration and dedication factor and I think that will interpret into some positive results.

 

“I matured over my years, once I had a kid and a family and I think the same has happened with Julio. Life becomes clearer when you put away the immaturity. You realize that you have a future and if you really want to access what’s available to you, then you are going to have to work hard and dedicate yourself to it.

 

“Going to Lake Tahoe and really working hard is a sign of maturity and I think that’s what Julio is going through right now. He really showed it by leaving his home and spending an extended period of time up there. To me that is a great indicator that he is mature, dedicated and taking this fight very seriously.

 

“Of course I believe Julio is ready to fight Fonfara. The fight was made before I even came on board, but that’s the challenge that I am presented with. You must figure out a good game plan and figure out what you’re up against.

 

“Just because Julio has been out a year doesn’t mean that it’s going to be a cake walk for Fonfara. We went up to Lake Tahoe with one thing in mind, and that’s winning this fight and that’s exactly what we’re going to do.”

UNDEFEATED 140-POUND CONTENDER AMIR IMAM TO FACE WALTER CASTILLO IN CHAVEZ-FONFARA CO-FEATURE APRIL 18 ON SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING®

Skildu eftir athugasemd

Laugardagur, Apríl 18, LIVE á Showtime® (10 p.m. OG/7 p.m. PT)

From StubHub Center In Carson, Calif.

NEW YORK (Apríl 8, 2015) – Top 10 ranked super lightweight contender Amir I (16-0, 14 Kos) will aim to move one step closer to a world title opportunity when he makes his second start of 2015 against fellow power-puncher Walter Castillo (25-2, 18 Kos) in the 10-round co-feature of Showtime CHAMPIONSHIP Hnefaleikar á Laugardagur, Apríl 18, LIVE on Showtime (10 p.m. OG/7 p.m. PT)

 

In the main event from StubHub Center í Carson, Calif., Mexican Superstar Julio Cesar Chavez(48-1-1, 32 Kos) faces exciting brawler Andrzej Fonfara (26-3, 15 Kos), of Chicago by way of Poland, í 12-umferð ljós þungavigtar lota.

 

Einn af hraðast vaxandi horfur box er, 24 ára gamall Imam hefur slegið út 14 hans 16 professional opponents since turning pro in 2011. The Albany, N.Y., native is coming off a fifth-round TKO of Fidel Maldonado Jr., in a brawl on Jan. 17 on SHOWTIME that featured five total knockdowns. Ég hef, currently ranked No. 4 in the WBA and No. 7 í WBC, touched the canvas for the first time in his career but bounced back and relied on his power to floor Maldonado a total of four times.

 

“I know Walter is a tough fighter, he comes forward and throws a lot of punches,” Imam sagði. “But I will figure him out quickly once I get inside the ring. I’m working on a lot of different things for this training camp, lots of tricky moves that are going to excite the fans. It’s great to fight outdoors at StubHub Center and to showcase my talents on SHOWTIME. I’m here to entertain and prove I’m ready for that title shot.”

 

Castle (25-2, 18 Kos), af Managua, Nicaragua, has won nine straight and KO’d six of his last seven opponents. The 26-year-old has fought mostly in Nicaragua and the only blemishes on his record are a split-decision loss in his pro debut and a controversial 2008 split decision on the road against former world champ Vicente Mosquera í Panama. Castle, who has knocked out his last four opponents inside of four rounds, will make his second start in the U.S. after winning his American debut via first round TKO last October.

 

“Ég er mjög spennt fyrir þessari baráttu. I’ve been training hard for months now and can’t wait for the bell to ring,” Castillo said. “Where I’m from we have a history of great warriors like Alexis Arguello and Rosendo Alvarez and on Apríl 18 I’m looking to moving one step closer to adding my name to that list. Imam may be undefeated but I’m ready for a war.”

Press Conference Quotes; Mánudagur, Jan. 19, á MGM Grand

LAS VEGAS (Jan. 19, 2015) - Tvær nætur eftir að hafa verið lagður inn á sjúkrahús eftir tap hans til ósigraður Challenger Deontay Wilder á Showtime® frá MGM Grand Garden Arena, former WBC Heavyweight Champion Gold Cup, Hall hans Frægð verkefnisstjóri, Don King, og þjálfari hans, Don House, hýst á blaðamannafundi seint í dag á MGM Grand.

 

Hér er það sem þeir höfðu að segja:

 

Forgöngumaður DON KING

 

"Við kölluð þennan fréttamannafund því Bermane við sáum á laugardag nótt var ekki Bermane við vitum öll. Deontay Wilder gerði mjög gott starf; þetta er ekki blaðamannafundi eftir afsökun, það er fyrir því. Læknarnir á sjúkrahúsi í UMC sagði að hann hefði alvarlega ræða ofþornun. Vöðvarnir hans voru ekki að virka og þeir töldu að hann hefði blóð í þvagi hans, svo þeir tóku nokkur próf og hélt honum á sjúkrahúsi þar í morgun.

"Við viljum að fagna Deontay Wilder fyrir að gera starf sitt, en sá maður fyrir honum var fatlaður og ekki að gera starf sitt, en það ætti ekki að taka neitt frá sigur hans. Deontay gerðar og did a mikill starf. Það er óheppilegt, en Bermane verður að gera það annar dagur. Vitandi meistari Við höfum í Deontay hefur svo eloquently fram að hann muni taka á neinn, Ég er viss um án equivocation hann myndi veita vera enn með alvöru Bermane en maðurinn sem var fatlaður í hring, ekki taka í burtu sigur hann hafði og hvernig hann shined.

"Við lofum Deontay og vona að hann getur verið meistari nógu lengi til þar sem við getum haft vera enn á 'Til baka í Glory."

"Rétt eins og mikill her okkar, þegar þeir fá slegnir niður, þeir fá upp aftur. Jafnvel með alvarlega vessaþurrð Bermane hans er enn stóð þar í 12 umferðir.

"Við viljum þakka Richard Sturm, Forseti MGM Grand skemmtun og Stephen Espinoza með Showtime Boxing fyrir að spila stóran þátt í að fá þetta forrit saman. Við fögnum bæði starfsfólk okkar og MGM starfsfólki fyrir að gera lofsvert starf til að gera þetta gerast. Andi fyrir 'Til baka í Glory' var mikil. Við höfðum mikla kort með Amir Imam í baráttunni í nótt, fá slegnir niður og komast aftur upp. Allar átök voru óvenjulegur. Það var mjög skemmtilegt kvöld á box fyrir stuðningsmennina og það er það sem við erum í raun um.

"Don House svo eloquently fram heilsa Bermane er svo mikilvægt svo þegar ég fann út að hann var á sjúkrahúsi, Ég fór að vera þar deginum með honum vegna þess að yfirleitt erum við að senda bara þá á spítalann til að fá köflóttur út, en þeir ákváðu að halda honum. Þegar þeir ákváðu að halda honum, Ég þurfti að komast yfir það og sjá bardagamaður minn. The staff was frábær og mjög miskunni mér og mjög endanlega um hvað gæti verið rangt og rannsaka alla þætti. Þeir sögðu að hann er heilbrigður og ætti að taka burt á mánuði eða svo til að fá smá hvíld og þá fá að vinna til að undirbúa endurkomu hans til dýrðar og endurheimt þungavigtar kóróna sem er nú haldin með miklu meistari heitir Deontay Wilder. "

Gold Cup

 

"Ég vil biðjast afsökunar fyrir að hafa ekki að gera eftir berjast blaðamannafundi. Því miður var ég ekki fær um að framkvæma í baráttunni eins og ég vildi vegna alvarlega ofþornun og vöðvaskemmdum. Ég vissi ekki að það var að alvarlegt fyrr en þeir sögðu mér. Ég hefði getað dáið af því. Ég er fús til að vera bara sjálfur, walk and talk again. Thank God for this, það er í raun það sem skiptir mig til að vera heilbrigð núna.

"Ég vissi ekki alvarleika þess Laugardagur nótt. ÉG var fær til að gefa fólki góð sýning, 12 umferðir box. Ef ég þurfti að gera það aftur ég myndi gera það aftur. Þetta er ekki endirinn fyrir mig. Ég mun gefa það a par vikum og þá fá aftur til vinnu. Ég er með framtíðarsýn fyrir þetta, en núna er það bara á hlé. Það er bara spurning um tíma áður en ég mun komast aftur á fætur og ganga aftur. Þegar það kemur að heilsu mína, Ég hef verið útskrifaður af spítalanum. Þeir myndu ekki láta mig fara fyrr en ég var nægilega vökva. Ég er þakklátur. Þakka þér að verkefnisstjóra minn og þjálfari, allir sem hafa á móti mér.

"Til að aðdáendum mínum, Ég afsökunar fyrir að vera ekki fær um að framkvæma eins Bermane yfirleitt er. Ég veit að fólk sem raunverulega þekkja mig, vita hvernig ég berjast. Síðasta berjast minn með Chris Arreola, Ég gaf þér góð sýning. Það er óheppilegt að ég gat ekki gert það sem ég vildi gera með baráttu mína við Deontay Wilder. Ég vil hamingju hann, hann barist góðu baráttunni. Vonandi einhvers staðar í framtíðinni munum við hittast aftur.

"Takk allir fyrir að koma út á blaðamannafundi, Ég er aftur á fætur 100 prósent núna. Ég þarf bara nokkrar vikur eða mánuði hvíld til að vera aftur þar sem ég var horfið. "

DON HOUSE, Trainer Stiverne er

"Þakka ykkur fyrir að koma út. Það mikilvægasta er að Bermane er í lagi. Það er helsta áhyggjuefni mitt. Ég tók eftir einhvers staðar í baráttunni, sennilega um þriðja eða fjórða umferð, eitthvað var ekki rétt. Jafnvel þótt hann sagði mér að hann væri í lagi, við vitum öll Bermane. Ég huga ekki að missa berjast, en ég vissi eitthvað var ekki rétt, svo ég var mjög áhyggjufullur. Around níunda eða 10 umferð ég var að hugsa að hætta í baráttunni vegna þess að þú þarft ekki að halda áfram, en hann vildi halda áfram að berjast.

"Þú varst ekki sjá Bermane, þú sást kannski 10-15 prósent af Bermane. Ég trúi í raun og virkilega fannst þetta ætti að hafa verið ágætis berjast fyrir Bermane, en myndi endast fjórum umferðir eða minna vegna máttur hans og hraða. Við vanmetin hann aldrei. Við æfðum eins og hann var að berjast King Kong. Ég þjálfa hvert bardagamaður svona, vanmeta enginn. En Laugardagurnótt, fengum við 15 prósent af Bermane.

"Við erum að fara að líta til baka, sjá hvað við gerðum rangt, hvernig við getum gert hlutina betri, hvað við ættum að hafa gert. Við munum taka a líta á hvernig vökvatap gæti hafa gerst. Við munum taka a líta á baráttunni og sumir af þeim hlutum sem við gerðum í þjálfun og finna út hvað við gerðum rangt. "
