CARSON, Calif. (April 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 IS-SIBT lejl, flooring the former middleweight champion one time en route to a one-sided ninth-round TKO in the main event ofSHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP boxing jgħixu fuq SHOWTIME.

 

Fonfara, of Chicago by way of Radon, Polonja, dropped Chavez, of Culiacan, Sinaloa, Messiku, 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. Mumenti aktar tard, the fight was halted. The busier and more accurate fighter throughout, Fonfara was comfortably ahead on the three judgesscorecards by scored of 89-80 u 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, immatonight 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, “Maybe 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 hadstopped 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., permezz ta 'Albany, N.Y., won a lopsided 10-round decision over Walter “L-Hammer” Castle.

 

The talented, versatile, Għandi, 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, qal “I thought I won the fight. I didn’t get credit for the punches I threw. The judge who scored it 100-90; ukoll, that gives me no chance to win here. The cut bothered me in the early rounds, but was not a factor after.

 

Earlier IS-SIBT, fuq SHOWTIME EXTREME, undefeated Moises “El Chucky” Fjuri (23-0, 16 Kos), ta 'Guadalajara, Messiku, 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, Kolombja.

 

Fjuri, teħid tiegħu 2015 debut and third start in a row in the United States, trijunfanti mill-punteġġi ta ' 116-112 darbtejn u 113-115.

 

An emotional Flores was near tears afterward. “Dan huwa ħolma realtà – more than a dream come truefor me,” huwa qal. “I saw my family on the beach, eating meat. I saw my babies better dressed. For me this is a life-changing victory and, iva, 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,” huwa qal. “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, welterweight super 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, hard-ġġieldu, give-and-take eight-round unanimous decision over Richard Gutierrez (28-16-1, 17 Kos), of Arjona, Kolombja.

Chavez won by the scores of 78-75 darbtejn u 77-74. There were no knockdowns.

What the fighters, trainers and executives said Il-Ħamis:

 

JULIO CESAR CHAVEZ JR., Ex Champion tad-Dinja

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 IS-SIBT 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. huwa ġellied kbir. 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 nhar is-Sibt.

 

If I get the chance, Jien ser knock lilu out. 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 IS-SIBTand everything will happen there.

 

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

 

Amir IMĦABBA, Undefeated Super Ħfief Konkorrent

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. Iżda, you better believe that if there is an opportunity to knock him out, then I will take advantage of it.

 

“Fl 2015, Irrid li ssir champion tad-dinja. 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.

 

“I know hu [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. Tali Kif IS-SIBT night may the better man win.

 

I’ve boxed styles like [tiegħu] plenty of times, but you never know, he could come out different IS-SIBTlejl.

 

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

 

CASTILLO WALTER, Super Ħfief Konkorrent

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.

 

“Tali Kif IS-SIBT, 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, wisq.

 

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. Numru wieħed, 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 rawnds, with us getting the knockout.

 

STACY MCKINLEY, Trainer Imam

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 nhar is-Sibt.

 

I think that Amir is going to open up a lot of eyes nhar is-Sibt.”

Julio Cesar Chavez, forsi l-akbar ġlied Messikan ta 'kull żmien, għamel apparenza matul workout tifel tiegħu biex juru appoġġ u l-offerta tiegħu kliem ta 'inkoraġġiment.

 

Hawn dak Chavez Jr, Julio Cesar Chavez and Joe Goossen (trainer) kellhom jgħidu Il-ġimgħa fil-ġinnasju Los Angeles-żona:

 

JULIO CESAR CHAVEZ JR., Ex Champion tad-Dinja

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. He iebsa.

 

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 bħala 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, l-ċirku, 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.

 

“Lulju [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.

QABEL KIENET WBC Heavyweight CHAMPION Gold Cup, HALL OF FAME PROMOTER DON KING, TRAINER DON HOUSE MEET THE MEDIA TO DISCUSS BOXER’S CONDITION, FUTURE FOLLOWING HIS LOSS TO DONTAY WILDER ON SATURDAY NIGHT

 

Press Conference Quotes; It-tnejn, Jan. 19, fi MGM Grand

LAS VEGAS (Jan. 19, 2015) - Żewġ iljieli wara li jkunu ddaħħlu l-isptar wara t-telf tiegħu biex isfidant unbeaten Deontay Wilder fuq SHOWTIME® mill- MGM Grand Garden Arena, former WBC Heavyweight Champion Gold Cup, Hall tiegħu ta 'promotur Fame, Don King, u trainer tiegħu, Don House, ospitat konferenza stampa tard llum fil-Grand MGM.

 

Hawn dak li kellhom jgħidu:

 

Promotur DON KING

 

"Aħna sejjaħ din il-konferenza stampa għaliex il Bermane rajna nhar is-Sibt lejl ma kienx il-Bermane nafu lkoll. Deontay Wilder għamlet xogħol tajjeb ħafna; din mhix konferenza stampa skużi, huwa f'idejn fatt. Il-tobba fl-isptar tal-UMC qal li hu kellu każ sever ta 'deidrazzjoni. Muskoli tiegħu ma kienux jaħdmu u ħasbu kellu demm fl-awrina tiegħu, sabiex ikunu ħadu xi testijiet u miżmuma lilu fl-isptar sakemm dalgħodu.

"Aħna rridu li infaħħar Deontay Wilder biex isir ix-xogħol tiegħu, iżda l-bniedem quddiemu kien b'diżabilità u kapaċi jagħmlu xogħol tiegħu, iżda dan m'għandux jieħu xejn bogħod mill rebħa tiegħu. Deontay mwettqa u għamlet biċċa xogħol tajba. Hija ħasra, iżda Bermane ser ikollhom jagħmlu dan jum ieħor. Jafu l-ċampjin għandna fl Deontay jkun hekk eloquently iddikjara li huwa se jieħu fuq xi ħadd, I am ċerti mingħajr ebda ekwivoki hu se jawtorizza rematch mal-Bermane reali milli l-bniedem li kien b'diżabilità fl-ċirku, mhux qed tieħu l bogħod l-rebħa kellu u l-mod hu shined.

"Aħna tifħir Deontay u t-tama hu jista 'jkun champion twil biżżejjed biex fejn nistgħu jkollhom rematch tal-" Ritorn għall Glory. "

"Eżatt bħal militari kbir tagħna, meta huma jiksbu knocked stabbiliti, huma jiksbu lura mill-ġdid. Anke ma Bermane tiegħu deidrazzjoni severa xorta kien hemm għall 12 rawnds.

"Aħna rridu li nirringrazzja Richard Sturm, President ta 'divertiment MGM Grand u Stephen Espinoza ma SHOWTIME Boxing għal playing a sehem maġġuri fit jkollna dan il-programm flimkien. Aħna infaħħar kemm l-istaff tagħna u l-persunal MGM biex isir xogħol ifaħħarha għat-teħid dan iseħħ. L-ispirtu ta '"Ritorn għall Glory" kien għoli. Kellna card kbir mal Amir Imam fil-ġlieda tal-lejl, jkollna knocked stabbiliti u jkollna lura up. Kollha tal-ġlied kienu eċċezzjonali. Kien lejl tajba ta 'boxing għall-fannijiet u li huwa dak li aħna verament dwar.

"Don House hekk eloquently iddikjarat is-saħħa tal Bermane huwa tant importanti hekk meta I sab li kien fl-isptar, I marru biex jibqgħu l-jum hemm miegħu għaliex normalment aħna biss tibgħathom lill-isptar biex tikseb ċċekkjati out, iżda huma ddeċidew li jżommu lilu. Meta ddeċidew li jżommu lilu, I kellha tikseb minn hemm u ara ġellied tiegħi. Il-persunal kien terrific u gracious ħafna lili u definittiva ħafna dwar dak li jista 'jkun żbaljat u tinvestiga l-aspetti kollha. Huma qal li huwa b'saħħtu u għandhom jieħdu off xahar jew hekk biex nikseb xi mistrieħ u mbagħad jiksbu biex jaħdmu biex jippreparaw għar-ritorn tiegħu għall-glorja u rkuprar l-kuruna heavyweight li bħalissa qed tinżamm minn champion kbir jismu Deontay Wilder.

"Irrid ruhna biex ma jagħtux il-konferenza stampa wara l-ġlieda. Sfortunatament I ma kienx kapaċi jwettqu fil-ġlieda bħal jien ridt li 'minħabba deidrazzjoni severa u ħsara fil-muskoli. Ma kontx naf li kien li serju sakemm huma told me. I setgħet mietu minn dan. Ninsab kuntenta li jkun biss myself, walk and talk again. Thank God for this, dan huwa verament dak li jgħodd għalija li jkunu b'saħħithom dritt issa.

"Ma kontx naf-severità ta 'dan IS-SIBT lejl. I kien kapaċi jagħti lill-poplu juru tajjeb, 12 rawnds ta 'boxing. Jekk I kellha tagħmel dan mill-ġdid nixtieq jagħmlu mill-ġdid. Dan mhuwiex it-tmiem għalija. I se tagħtiha ftit ġimgħat u mbagħad terġa 'lura għax-xogħol. I jkollhom viżjoni għal din, iżda issa dritt huwa biss fuq pause.

Huma ma let me leave sakemm I kien idrati biżżejjed. Ich danke. Grazzi għal promotur tiegħi u trainer, kulħadd li laqa lili.

"Biex fannijiet tiegħi, I ruhna li ma kinitx f'pożizzjoni li jwettaq bħal Bermane normalment ma. Naf li nies li verament jafu lili, taf kif I ġlieda. Ġlieda aħħar My ma 'Chris Arreola, I taw inti juru tajjeb. Hija ħasra li jien ma setgħux jagħmlu dak li ridt li tagħmel mal-ġlieda tiegħi ma Deontay Wilder. Irrid nifraħ lilu, huwa ġġieldu ġlieda tajba. Nisperaw x'imkien fil-futur aħna se jerġgħu jiltaqgħu.

"Grazzi lil kulħadd għall ġejjin biex il-konferenza stampa, I am lura fuq saqajn tiegħi 100 mija dritt issa. I biss bżonn ftit ġimgħat jew xahar ta 'mistrieħ li jiġu lura fejn tlaqt off. "

DON HOUSE, Trainer Stiverne tal-

"Grazzi guys għall ġejjin out. L-aktar ħaġa importanti hija li Bermane huwa OK. Dan huwa tħassib ewlieni tiegħi. I ndunat x'imkien fil-ġlieda, probabbilment madwar it-tielet jew raba 'round, xi ħaġa ma kienx dritt. Anki jekk hu told me li kien OK, nafu lkoll Bermane. I ma mind jitilfu ġlieda, imma kont naf xi ħaġa ma kienx dritt, so I kien imħasseb ħafna. Madwar id-disa 'jew 10 round I kienet taħseb biex tieqaf il-ġlieda għaliex inti ma jkollhom ikomplu, imma ried li jkompli jiġġieled.

"Inti ma tara Bermane, inti raw forsi 10-15 mija ta 'Bermane. I verament nemmnu u verament ħass dan missu kien ġlieda deċenti għal Bermane, imma kieku l-aħħar erba 'rawnds jew anqas għax-poter tiegħu u l-veloċità. Aħna qatt sottovalutati lilu. Aħna mħarrġa daqs li kieku kien ġlied King Kong. I ferrovija kull ġellied bħal dik, jissottovalutaw l-ebda wieħed. Iżda IS-SIBTlejl, kellna dwar 15 mija ta 'Bermane.

"Aħna qed tmur biex tħares lura, tara dak li għamilna ħażin, kif nistgħu nagħmlu l-affarijiet aħjar, dak li għandna għamlu. Aħna se tagħti ħarsa lejn kif il-deidrazzjoni jista 'jkollhom ġara. Aħna se tagħti ħarsa lejn il-ġlieda u xi wħud mill-affarijiet għamilna fit-taħriġ u nsib dak li għamilna ħażin. "
