Andrzej Fonfara
“Hàbilment té una gran mandíbula. Ell és un gran lluitador. Estava prenent una gran quantitat de cops i no trencar. Ell encara volia anar cap endavant i lluita. Ell creia que podia guanyar fins al final.
“Jo pensava que anava a noquejar abans de la baralla, però durant la baralla em vaig adonar que té una gran defensa. No tenia ni idea que pogués prendre tants cops i seguir sent en la lluita. Em vaig adonar que seria molt difícil de noquearlo. El respecto molt.
“No va ser la baralla més dura de la meva carrera, però estic content perquè era un disc 12 rondes.
“Em va donar la sensació que vaig trencar el nas al voltant de la setena o vuitena ronda. Després de prendre tants cops durs Vaig sentir que portava a sota.
“Estava segur que va guanyar abans de llegir la decisió. L'últim parell rondes no hi havia dubte que era el millor lluitador. Ell encara estava llançant cops, però jo estava bloquejant ells i ho va copejar molt dur.
“Què segueix per a mi? Hawaii. Vacances.”
Nathan Cleverly
“Va ser una baralla fantàstica – Tenia la sensació que els nostres estils anaven a quallar i això és el que va passar. Va ser una guerra des de la primera campana i no estic sorprès que es va trencar el rècord de la major quantitat de cops llançats, perquè quan vam començar simplement no aturem.
“Ell realment pot colpejar – ell no està lluny Sergey Kovalev pel poder. Però vaig pensar que el tenia fins que el nas es va anar i crec que sense aquest, Podria haver aconseguit la victòria. Però al final, Crec que la 115-113 estava a punt de dret, i el crèdit a ell, va prendre alguns cops en allà també i seguia arribant.
“Ha estat una gran experiència aquí als EUA. – és un públic molt hostil però tots em va felicitar després de la baralla. Ho faria de nou? Perquè no – que és el que estem aquí per fer, posar en baralles entretingudes per als grans aficionats, i estic segur que hi haurà la demanda del mateix.”
Kohei Kono
“He estat entrenant per guanyar aquest títol per anys i estic molt feliç que he defensat el títol.
“Estic tan feliç que he d'afrontar Kameda i obtenir aquesta victòria sobre ell. És una gran victòria per a la meva carrera.
“Si haguéssim lluitat usant moviment, probablement m'hauria colpejat, però va decidir intercanviar cops amb mi i que em va donar l'oportunitat de guanyar.
“El meu jab era excel·lent aquesta nit i el meu ganxo poques vegades es va perdre. A principis de la lluita no estava segur que podria prendre el seu poder. Però després que ell em va colpejar un parell de vegades i que encara hi era, Vaig començar a tenir la confiança.
“Em vaig sentir molt bé durant tota la setmana i jo sabia que el meu rendiment seria molt fort. Fins i tot abans d'anar-me'n a la U.S. Em vaig sentir millor que he tingut abans d'una baralla.”
KOKI Kameda
He entrenat molt dur per aquesta baralla. Estic molt decebut.
“Anava a prendre una decisió sobre si retirar-se o no sobre la base de la meva actuació. Crec que podria ser el moment de retirar-me.
“El meu resistència no era el que hauria de ser en els últims assalts.
“Em vaig veure embolicat en la segona volta, perquè he comès un error que no hauria d'haver fet. Va barallar molt bé i em va sorprendre pel seu poder. Crec que és hora que em retiri.”

Andrzej Fonfara
“He guanyat algunes grans baralles i estic orgullós d'això, però he de mantenir la concentració en l'esport i seguir fent el meu millor. Només sóc un noi normal. Sóc un boxejador i un guerrer i segueixo millorant amb cada baralla. Això és més important per a mi que s'anomena una estrella en ascens en la boxa.
“Hàbilment diu que és massa relliscós per a mi, però veurem què passa en el ring el divendres. Mai se sap el que passarà en una baralla. Potser és més ràpid i més polit, però jo sóc més fort i crec que sóc un millor lluitador en aquest moment.
“El pla és per a vèncer- el divendres, però si tinc l'oportunitat vaig a noquejar. Aquest és l'esport estem en: sang i suor.
“Hàbilment és realment un gran pas per a mi. Sé que és un home amb experiència. Ell és un bon tipus tècnic. És ràpid i astut, però vull que tipus com ell. No vull vagues que es presenten per rebre el pagament i baixar a la segona o tercera ronda. Vull un home que em diu abans d'una baralla que pot colpejar-. Això em motiva.”
Nathan Cleverly
“Serà una experiència agradable lluitant al pati de casa de Chicago. És una mica d'una aventura. La pressió està fora de forma perquè té les expectatives de l'afició local. Jo només vinc aquí per fer la meva feina i guanyar la lluita.
“Estic segur que serà una bona baralla i vull.
“Fonfara és un bon boxejador. És alt i llargarut. Ell és un bon colpejador i fort. És convenient. Ell llança correcta, cops sòlids, però crec que guanyaré, perquè simplement tinc més eines i he fet més que el meu joc. Estic més nítida amb major moviment. El meu combinació de perforació serà massa per a ell.”
KOEHEI Kono
“Sempre he tingut el somni de lluitar als Estats Units. Jo faré tot el possible per dur a terme fins el caràcter històric d'aquesta lluita.
“Kameda diu que és un "geni carismàtic.’ No estic d'acord i estic aquí per demostrar que estava equivocat. Vaig a provar-Divendres la nit que jo sóc la força veritable.
“Estic orgullós de la meva resistència i l'activitat taxa i el meu poder de cop. És per això que vaig a guanyar aquesta baralla.”
KOKI Kameda
“Estic en la millor forma de tota la meva carrera en la boxa en aquest moment. Vaig passar cinc setmanes d'entrenament de Las Vegas amb Ismael Sales i això va ser el millor que vaig poder haver fet. Jo no he fet res més que preparar-me per aquesta baralla.
“Kono va prometre a la premsa japonesa i els seus fans que m'anava a noquejar… això és l'últim que passarà en aquesta lluita. Em sembla que divertit.
“Aquesta és la primera vegada que dos japonesos han lluitat per un títol mundial als Estats Units, però jo no tinc cap sentiment especial sobre la naturalesa històrica. Això és només una altra baralla per a mi perquè cada baralla que estic en és igualment important per a mi. Fins i tot una baralla a quatre assalts és la vida o la mort per a mi.”

CARSON, Califòrnia. (Abril 18, 2015) – Confident and determined, Andrzej “The PolishPríncep” Fonfara (27-3, 16 KOs) spoiled the ring return of Juli Cèsar Chavez Jr. (48-2-1, 32 KOs) in resounding fashion Dissabte nit, flooring the former middleweight champion one time en route to a one-sided ninth-round TKO in the main event ofSHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING viure TEMPS DE LA FUNCIÓ.

 

Fonfara, of Chicago by way of Radon, Polònia, dropped Chavez, of Culiacan, Sinaloa, Mèxic, 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. Moments després, 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 i 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 (10º) 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, peròaquesta nit was a dream come true. I want a rematch with (Light Heavyweight World Champion) Adonis Stevenson.

 

Said Chavez, the son of legendary Mexican icon, Juli Cèsar 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 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., per mitjà d'Albany, N.Y., won a lopsided 10-round decision over Walter “El Martell” Castell.

 

The talented, versatile, Tinc, 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”.

 

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

 

Més d'hora Dissabte, on SHOWTIME EXTREME, invicte Moises “El Chucky” Flors (23-0, 16 KOs), de Guadalajara, Mèxic, captured the WBA Super Bantamweight Interim World Championship with a thrilling 12-round split decision over defending champion Oscar Escandón (24-2 16 KOs), of Tolima, Colòmbia.

 

Flors, fent la seva 2015 debut and third start in a row in the United States, triomfat amb les puntuacions 116-112 dues vegades i 113-115.

 

An emotional Flores was near tears afterward. “Això és un somni fet realitat – more than a dream come true – for me,” ell va dir. “I saw my family on the beach, eating meat. I saw my babies better dressed. For me this is a life-changing victory and, si, 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 Creu. 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,” ell va dir. “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, súper welter Omar “El Businessman”Chávez (33-3-1, 22 KOs), of Culiacan, the younger brother of Chavez, Jr. and son of legendary Julio Cesar Sr., won an exciting, renyit, give-and-take eight-round unanimous decision over Richard Gutierrez (28-16-1, 17 KOs), of Arjona, Colòmbia.

Chavez won by the scores of 78-75 dues vegades i 77-74. There were no knockdowns.

What the fighters, trainers and executives said Dijous:

 

JULIOL CESAR CHAVEZ JR., L'ex Campió del Món

“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 Dissabte 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. Chávez 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.

 

“Chávez Jr. és un gran lluitador. 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 en dissabte.

 

“If I get the chance, Vaig a noquejar. 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 Dissabteand everything will happen there.

 

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

 

AMIR AMOR, El invicte superlleuger 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. Però, you better believe that if there is an opportunity to knock him out, then I will take advantage of it.

 

“En 2015, Vull arribar a ser un campió del món. 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.

 

“Sé que és [Castell] 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. Tal Com Dissabte night may the better man win.

 

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

 

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

 

WALTER CASTELL, Superlleuger 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.

 

“Tal Com Dissabte, 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.”

JULIO CESAR CHAVEZ SR.

“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, massa.

 

“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, Chávez’ Entrenador

“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. Nombre un, 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 rondes, with us getting the knockout.”

 

STACY MCKINLEY, Entrenador de l'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 en dissabte.

 

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

VAN NUYS, Qualif.(Abril 13, 2015) – L'ex campió del món Juli Cèsar Chavez Jr. va dur a terme una sessió d'exercicis de mitjans el divendres in front of a packed house at Ten Goose Boxing Gym in Van Nuys, Qualif., as the Mexican superstar prepares to make his SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING® debutar a Dissabte, Abril 18, al StubHub Center a Carson, Qualif., viure TEMPS DE LA FUNCIÓ(10 p.m. I/7 p.m. PT).

Juli Cèsar Chavez, per a molts el millor boxejador mexicà de tots els temps, fet acte de presència durant l'entrenament del seu fill per mostrar el seu suport i oferir paraules d'alè.

 

Això és el que Chávez Jr., Julio Cesar Chavez and Joe Goossen (entrenador) havia de dir Divendres al gimnàs de Los Angeles-area:

 

JULIOL CESAR CHAVEZ JR., L'ex Campió del Món

“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. És dur.

 

“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 com boxejador. 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'anell, 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.”

 

 

JULIO CESAR CHAVEZ SR.

“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.

 

“Juliol [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, Chávez Jr.s’ Entrenador

“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.”

From StubHub Center In Carson, Califòrnia.

NOVA YORK (Abril 8, 2015) – Superior 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 Castell (25-2, 18 KOs) in the 10-round co-feature of SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING a Dissabte, Abril 18, LIVE on TEMPS DE LA FUNCIÓ (10 p.m. I/7 p.m. PT)

 

In the main event from StubHub Center a Carson, Qualif., Superestrella mexicana Juli Cèsar Chavez(48-1-1, 32 KOs) faces exciting brawler Andrzej Fonfara (26-3, 15 KOs), of Chicago by way of Poland, en una baralla de pes lleuger de 12 assalts.

 

Un de més ràpid creixement prospectes de la boxa, de 24 anys d'edat, el Imam ha noquejat 14 de la seva 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. Tinc, currently ranked No. 4 in the WBA and No. 7 en el CMB, 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 va dir. “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.”

 

Castell (25-2, 18 KOs), de 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 a Panamà. Castell, 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.

 

“Estic molt emocionat per aquesta baralla. 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 Abril 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.”
