NEW YORK CITY (Mart 19, 2024) – Brooklyn heavyweight Pryce Taylor (3-0, 2 KOs) has successfully transitioned from basketball to boxing and today the 27-year-old prospect is on the rise as an undefeated prize fighter.

Taylor said he brought his legs from the courts into the ring. He first dunked a ball when he was in eighth grade, four inches shorter than the 6’ 4” Taylor is today. Pryce admits missing basketball but quickly notes that he could still play, not necessarily on a team, because he’s not in basketball shape anymore. “I’m in boxing shape,” he proudly noted.

A decorated U.S. amaterski boksač, highlighted by his two New York Golden Gloves Championship titles, Taylor was also a four-time runner-up in USA National Championships, including one to Joshua Edwards, who has qualified to represent as a super heavyweight for Team USA in the 2024 Olympics in Paris.

Prošle godine, Taylor had seven wins fighting for New York in the Team Combat League (TCL), which is a one-round, team format competition. Technically-speaking, the wins are not part of his professional boxing record. Taylor has benefitted from that experience and will be competing this season as well.

Taylor played basketball for one season at Corning Community College in upstate New York. “I stopped playing basketball six years ago,” Taylor said. “I’ve had 60 tuče (amateurs, pros and TCL) and believe the best boxers get there with sparring experience. Tako, I’ve been getting a lot of experience. I have a good skill set and know what I need to do in the ring.

“My mindset is to do what other boxers don’t do. All boxers learn the basics, but everything they want to throw, I already throw myself, and I know how to counter there’s. Anything they throw I’m able to defend.”

Taylor has been placed on the fast track by his manager, New York City-based attorney Keith Sullivan, who has discovered that it’s not easy finding suitable opponents for Taylor, who because of his size, amateur pedigree and participating in the TCL, is much more advanced than his three pro fights may indicate.

Another invaluable part of Taylor’s development is sparring established heavyweights such as Jarrell “Big Baby” Miller, Otto Wallin, Vladyslav Sirenko, and Brandon Glanton to name a few of the more notables.

Taylor made his pro debut last December, stopping Mike Diorio in the opening round, followed January 27 with the exact same result versus Gabriel Aguilar Costa. In his most recent action in March, Taylor went the distance for the first time as a pro, pitching a four-round shutout for a unanimous decision against Antonio Torres (4-1), 40-36 tri puta.

U svojoj zadnjoj borbi, held at Sony Hall, Taylor came out to the ring and paraded around the ring afterwards with an Irish flag draped around his massive shoulders (see above picture).

“Keith (Sullivan) knew there would be a lot of Irish fans there to watch an Irish fighter (Emmet Brennan) fighting after me,” Taylor explained. “He figured it was a good way to engage the large Irish crowd, so he draped me in the Irish tri-color flag. He was right, the Irish in attendance absolutely loved it, and I made some more fans.”

Basketball loss is boxing’s gain; Pryce Taylor is a legitimate prospect with tremendous upside.

In addition to managing Pryce Taylor, Keith Sullivan, a former Deputy Commissioner with the New York State Athletic Commission, and longtime boxing lawyer, also manages IBF Bantamweight World Champion Miyo Yoshida (17-4, 0 KOs) and Bronx middleweight prospect Nisa Rodriguez (1-0), in addition to co-managing World Boxing Association (WBA) Nemoj. 12-rated welterweight contender Paddy “The Real Deal” Donovan (13-0, 10 KOs), the reigning WBA Continental Champion from Limerick, Irska. Sullivan co-manages Donovan with former world middleweight champion Andy Lee.

Crossroads: doubleheader results from N.H.: Kendrick Ball, Jr. hits home run vs. Bryan Vera

“Crossroads” results from New Hampshire

DERRY, N.H. (April 18, 2021) -Former New England middleweight championKendrick “Peppa” Ball, Jr. turned in a career-best performance in last night’s main event against dangerousBryan “The Warrior” Vera on the evening portion of the “Crossroads” day-night doubleheader, presented by Granite Chin Promotions, at New England Sports Center in Derry, New Hampshire.

The pre-fight plan was followed as Ball (16-1-2, 11 KOs) boxed and moved, while Vera (28-17, 18 KOs) applied pressure, right from the opening bell. Ball took control in the second round, when he stayed in the pocket, snapping off crisp combinations. Ball fired more effective combinations in the third round as Vera started chasing his opponent. Ball started moving around the ring and fighting from the outside in the fourth and stayed on his toes the remainder of the fight.

Ball won an 8-round unanimous decision (79-73, 79-73, 78-74) to become the World Boxing Council (WBC) USNBC (Sjedinjene Američke Države) Silver Super Middleweight Champion.

“This was my best fight, because of who I fought, and the magnitude of the fight,” Ball commented. “The plan was to box and move because he was much smaller and slower. At times I banged, when I knew he wasn’t hurting me, but I shouldn’t have taken the risks.”

The 39-year-old Vera isn’t the same fighter he was when he beat three different world champions –Andy LeeSergio Mora (dvaput) iSerhiy Dzinziruk.  The Texan needs to decide if it’s time to finally hang up his gloves.

“This was awesome, definitely our best show to date,” Granite Chin’sChris Traietti declared after the show. “We feel great about stepping up to give these fighters, especially the locals, a platform to perform on in front of fans. I think a lot of promoters have gotten lazy. They gave us a lane and Granite Chin took advantage. This was our fourth show with fans during the last year. Brian fought hard and he’s a great guy, but he’s not the same guy he was in 2011. He needs to think about what he’s going to do.

“Granite Chin returns here June 26th with another doubleheader. The afternoon show will be the Granite Chin Invitational for open elite boxers. With the New England Golden Gloves canceled again there is a void to fill. If promoters are going to help amateurs, I certainly will, starting June 26th."

IzazivačMarquis Bates (8-4, 6 KOs) dethroned defending New Hampshire Welterweight ChampionRyan Dibartolomeo (3-2-1, 1 KO) via a sixth-round stoppage in an entertaining co-feature. A devastating overhand right from Bates gave him his new crown as the referee didn’t even count as the ring doctor quickly entered the ring.

Larry “Hitman” Pryor took the contract out onScott Lambert and he wasted little time taking care of business to become the New Hampshire Cruiserweight Champion. Pryor took advantage of his decisive height and reach advantages, closing the show with a perfectly thrown left hook that sent Lambert to the canvas. Lambert managed to beat the count, but the referee stopped the fight midway through the opening round when he saw Lambert wobbling back and forth on rubbery legs.

Lanky lefthandedFrancis “The Tank” Hogan (5-0, 5 KOs) graduated last night with a brilliant performance againstLarry “Slo Mo” Smith, who was in his 60th career fight. Hogan put down Smith early in the third round and caught the Texan late in the same round with a lefty-combination to the temple. Smith beat the count, but he was unable to answer the bell for the fourth round, and 20-year-old Hogan became the new New Hampshire Junior Middleweight Champion.

Former New England heavyweight championJustin “Crazy Train” Rolfe (5-2-1, 4 KOs) positioned himself for another N.E. title shot with a spectacular knockout ofAlfredo “Choncho” Trevino (9-9-1, 1 KO). The 263-pound Rolfe, fighting out of Fairfield, Mejn, charged across the ring at the bell and put his Arizona opponent to sleep right in his corner, when he was counted out at the 20-seconds mark.

The newest member of the fightin’ Whitley family from western Massachusetts, neporažena velterDenzel Whitley, cruised to his fourth victory with his fourth knockout. He drilledAquilandro Brandao late in round one and the fight was stopped by the referee.

NeporaženJahye Brown (9-0, 7 KOs) captured the vacant ABF Athletic junior middleweight title with a hard fought 8-round unanimous decision over a game Mexican opponent,Dormedes Potes (12-4-1, 9 KOs).  The two fought toe-to-toe from the opening bell and Brown landed the more effective punches inside to earn the victory.

Promising middleweight prospectJulien “Black Dragon” Baptiste poboljšana u 2-0 with his second knockout, blasting outBruno Dias in the third round.

Fighting for the first time in more than eight years, Fall River, MA welterweightDustin Reinhold (6-4, 2 KOs) won a 4-round unanimous decision over pro-debutingAntonijeAndreozziin what can best be called a rough and tumble match

Junior srednjojCarlos Castillo’s professional debut was a gem as the Holyoke, MA fighter droppedTheo Desjardon dvaput, the last closing the show late in the first round.

“Cannon” Berry stops Ibarra in 5

UBO All-America Welterweight ChampionBrandon “The Cannon” Berry (21-5-2, 13 KOs) successfully defended in the afternoon card’s main event, overcoming a slow start in which he was buzzed to stop challengerGael Ibarra (5-3, 4 KOs) in the fifth round.

Berry finished the fight in the fifth, when he unloaded twin barrages of unanswered punches on a trapped Ibarra until the referee waved off the fight.

“I’m glad it wasn’t a 4-round fight,” Berry said after the fight. “He was a strong guy. I was feeling it. He tested me. I want to thank my family and friends here, and Granite Chin and everybody involved in the promotion.”

Three-time New England Golden Gloves championDemek “Hightower” Edmonds had an awesome pro debut, dropping cruiserweightFrancisco Neto twice in round one, the second a vicious body shot ending the fight. Edmonds, a southpaw from Worcester, MA, is a college graduate and bonafide prospect to watch.

Can Saunders Secure His Most Impressive Win to Date Over Lemieux?

Billy Joe Saunders will take to the ring on December 16 in Canada as the reigning and defending WBO middleweight champion, being the proud owner of a belt which he won way back in December 2015 when defeating fellow traveller Andy Lee.

 

But since outpointing Irishman Lee with a majority decision success to become world champion at the Manchester Arena, Saunders has only defended it on two occasions, with unanimous decision triumphs over Artur Akavov and Willie Monroe Jr., more recently.

 

Against game Russian Akavov, the undefeated world title holder was far from impressive and perhaps even lucky to get such a comfortable decision in the end at the Lagoon Leisure Centre on Scottish soil. The win over American challenger Monroe Jr was a lot better, having then undertaken Dominic Ingle as his newest coach.

 

But the latter bout was still a drab affair and did nothing to further or boost Saundersappeal to a broader audience, as he outworked the New York-born southpaw quite comfortably. For most of the title defence, he was barely made to work at all, with Monroe having come in with a bizarrely inefficient gameplan.

 

Međutim, the 28-year-old will next face undoubtedly his toughest career test to date against former 160lbs champion David Lemieux, a far more serious challenge than an inexperienced and youthful Chris Eubank Jr, an indifferent Andy Lee and the far from threatening Willy Monroe Junior.

 

Hard-hitting Canadian Lemieux will enter the ring ropes as the evens outsider in the latest boxing odds to prevail on home territory, a promising price for a fighter on a strong surge of victories of late. Since being viciously stopped in a gallant showing against the division kingpin Gennady Golovkin in October 2015, the 28-year-old has earned four consecutive wins, including two big knockouts of Glen Tapia and Curtis Stevens.


Of all the opponents Saunders has gone toe to toe with to date, none have possessed the punching power of Lemieux, and that could be a decisive factor come fight night. The latter home hope is promoted by Oscar De La Hoya’s Golden Boy, who are seemingly keen to match the Canadian up with main cash cow Saul ‘CaneloAlvarez next year, rather than throw him in with ‘GGGonce again in a highly awaited rematch.

 

Despite being the favourite to prevail and maintain his unbeaten record on what will be his maiden venture outside of the UK in his professional career, it seems the odds are actually stacked against Saunders for this latest encounter.

 

It has been evident, suviše, that Saunders doesn’t boast the massive power capable of keeping a fleet-footed Lemieux away from the danger areas throughout their match-up. Knockout artist Lemieux produced what could eventually be voted stoppage of the year back in March when he brutally put Stevenslights out in New York City.

 

Could another vicious stoppage success be on the cards on home soil? It’s up to Saunders and Ingle to execute their upcoming gameplan perfectly to secure what would be a highly impressive victory on the road, but it looks likely of being a truly testing night in Quebec.

BILLY JOE SAUNDERS DETHRONES ANDY LEE SATURDAY TO BECOME 12th CURRENT BRITISH WORLD CHAMPION ON SHO EXTREME® FROM MANCHESTER,ENGLESKA

NEW YORK (Decembar. 19, 2015) – Billy Joe Saunders dethroned WBO Middleweight World Champion Andy Lee with a 12-round majority decision Saturday on SHOWTIME BOXING INTERNATIONAL iz Manchester, Engleska.

 

Borba, koji je postigao 115-111, 114-112 i 113-113, will re-air tonight at 9 poslije podne. I/PT na SHO EXTREME.

 

In a matchup of tactical southpaws, an explosive third round from Saunders (23-0, 12 KOs) was the difference. The British challenger floored Lee twice – first with a big right hook and again with a counter right just 30 seconds later – and a dazed Lee somehow survived the 10-7 krug. VIDEO HIGHLIGHTS: http://s.sho.com/1OfibYe

 

The Irish Lee (34-3-1, 24 KOs) fought his way back and was the more aggressive fighter in the championship rounds, but it wasn’t enough to make up for a slow start and the two knockdowns.

 

Sa win, Saunders became the 12th current British world champion.

 

“I’m world champion,” Saunders said. “I beat a good champion today, a good sturdy champion. I used his power against him. When I was boxing he got a little bit careless and dropped his lead hand and I caught him with the hook.

 

“I’m not going to start running my mouth, but it was a good shot. With someone as fast as me you have to keep your hands up. I’m not the biggest puncher in the world, but I showed you there that I can punch.”

 

WBA prvak u srednjoj kategoriji Svijet Daniel Jacobs, fresh off a first round knockout of Peter Quillin two weeks ago on SHOWTIME, was a guest analyst u subotu iz New York.

 

“I thought he was going to be a big brawler, I thought he had better assets,” Jacobs said of Lee. “He didn’t do enough for me. He was too complacent and after the knockdown you didn’t see that sense of urgency that a fighter has to have on the comeback trail.

 

“All credit due to Billy Joe, but it wasn’t an impressive victory.”

 

After watching the fight, Jacobs wasn’t ready to commit to a unification showdown in 2016 with the winner.

 

“We’ll do whatever makes sense,” Jacobs said. “I think it’s time to sit-down and figure what makes sense. Obviously it’s a good time to be a middleweight champion.”

NEW YORK (Decembar. 15, 2015) – WBO Middleweight World Champion Andy Lee i neporažen Challenger Billy Joe Saunders held separate media workouts in Manchester, Engleska, as they conclude preparations for their eagerly awaited showdown this Subota, Decembar. 19, live on SHO EXTREME (5 poslije podne. I/PT)from Manchester Arena.

 

Irska je Lee (34-2-1, 24 KOs) will make the first defense of his 160-pound title against England’s Saunders (22-0, 12 KOs), the WBO’s No. 1 srednjoj.

 

The SHOWTIME BOXING INTERNATIONAL ponuda odBoxNation telecast will feature analysis from SHOWTIME boxing experts Brian Custer, Al Bernstein i Paulie Malignaggibefore and after the world championship showdown. An encore presentation of the bout will air on SHO EXTREME later that evening at 9 poslije podne. I/PT.

 

Here’s what Lee and Saunders had to say at their media workouts on Tuesday and Ponedjeljak, odnosno:

 

ANDY LEE:

“I have a punch that can end a fight, lights out, in any given second.

 

“I won’t rely on the punch. I will look to dominate from the start with educated pressure.

 

“I’m feeling very dangerous at the moment.

 

“Saunders’ unbeaten record is a disadvantage. He’s always been in fights he’s expected to win and has been well managed by(Frank) Odgajivačnica zečeva.

 

“I’ve never lost a fight on points and I never will on points. If I’m down on the cards I will go out swinging in the last round.

 

“Saunders being a fellow traveler does add another layer, but at the end the day it’s about how good you are and he’s not good enough to beat me.”

 

BILLY JOE SAUNDERS:

“I’m ready to go for Subota noć. This is the best camp that I’ve ever had. I’m prepared for the toughest test of my career, but I know that I’m in excellent shape to win this fight and become world champion.

 

“Andy Lee is a tough fighter – he’s proved that by becoming world champion and having the type of career he has had. But I’m undefeated and hungry and know that I’m on the brink of fulfilling a childhood dream. I’m not going to leave that ring without the title.

 

“Training in Spain allows me to lock myself away from all distractions and focus solely on the fight. It’s hard being away from home, but it’s all part of boxing. It’s been a long camp, a tough camp, but after that I know that I’m ready to go through hell to make sure that I’m successful come fight night.

 

“The middleweight division is one of the hottest around and I’m prepared to fight any of the other champions in there once I win the title.

 

"Danny Jacobs had a great win against Peter Quillin , and then there is Canelo (Alvarez) i (Gennady) Golovkin. I know the importance of this fight for the division and I want my name to be among the very best. I’m taking it one step at a time, but I’m open to fight anyone.

 

“There has been no trash talk with Andy because we know what each person is about. We share a similar background and neither of us is going to take a back step.

 

“This is going to be a very exciting all-action fight because we’re going to leave it all in the ring. I know I have the skills to beat him and I intend to show the world why I’m among the best around.”

 

Saunders on fellow Brit Chris Eubank Jr.:

“The truth of the matter is that Eubank Jr. does not belong at the world level – he’s a phony. To je tako jednostavno. I wasn’t impressed with his win over Gary O’Sullivan, who I’ve already beat. He thinks he can fool the public with a win like that, but he can’t.

 

“His aim now is to move up and fight the best guys in the world, but we saw what happened the last time he stepped up a notch and faced me: he was badly exposed. The same thing will happen with him if he fights someone like Danny Jacobs for the WBA title.

 

“You’re not the best middleweight in your own country and you want to fight a world champion and say you’re going to beat him? I think it’s a delusion and he thinks he’s greater than he actually is.

 

“Sooner rather than later he’s going to get exposed again as the fraud that he is. You can keep talking, but eventually you have to back it up in the ring against top-level fighters. He’s won his last fight and now he’s back talking (psovka) again like he’s the best fighter in history.

 

“If he has the balls to fight again, which I doubt, I would happily hand him another beating, this time in even more convincing fashion.”

It’s a big boost for me and takes the fight to another level when American TV comes on board and then you know it’s a big fight on the world stage. I hope that (Gennady) Golovkin i (Miguel) Cotto će biti i gledanje jer sam brzo približava njihovu razinu i oni će doći do vidjeti ono što sam sve o. "

 

Promotor Frank Warren, rekao je, "Oduševljen sam da SHOWTIME će sada biti televising Lee vs. Saunders žive u U.S. as it confirms the importance of this fight on the world scene.

[Da ide u težini] “Osećam se kao da moram da idem gore. To utiče na moj nastup, but I feel like I did a great job.

 

I did my part. I’m not calling it a robbery but it was a good fight,” Said Peterson. “I don’t expect an easy journey for me to get where I’m going. Osećam veliku. That’s probably the least contact I’ve ever had in a fight.

[Na biće srušena] “Tu je prvi put za sve. Veoma sam zahvalan što sam bio u mogućnosti da se vrati i držati borbe. Sam uzeo godinu dana pauze i bio sam u mogućnosti da se 12-runde, a mogao sam i dalje radio.”

 

“Bila je to teška borba. On me je rano pao, jer sam bila lenja. Sam dobio zamah kasno u borbi i boksovao dosljedno. Ja razumijem zašto sa dva knockdowns osjetio ljudi koje je osvojio odluka. Sam mogao bolje večeras. Ako je moj sljedeći borba je Peter Quillin.”

LAMONT PETERSON

“Danny je razgovor svejedno mi je. Mislim da sam čak i više samopouzdanja od njega, a ja ću dobiti pobjede Subota noći i to će biti to.

 

“Ulozi su visoki. Ovo je definitivno da me gura na viši nivo u ovoj boks igra. Ja sam bio na vrhu za neko vrijeme, ali postoji razlika između biti na vrhu i biti elitna borac. Mislim da će mi učvrstiti kao elitna borac.

 

“Pogledao sam nekoliko Danny je tuča, ali ništa nije stvarno stajao do mene. Znam Danny je odbrambeno, to je ono što on radi. Došli smo sa planom igra da se zaustavi taj.

 

“Ja sam drugačija osoba nego druge Danny se borio. Ja sam drugačija osoba sa drugačijim stilom. Nadam se da prilagodbe make u ringu.

 

“Ova borba će biti drugačije nego bilo koji od naših borbi s Matthysse. To su dva različita tuče i stilova da se bori. Tu će biti različite rezultate. Morao sam da se pripreme za Danny Garcia i Danny Garcia je morao da se pripremi za mene.

 

“Nema borbe pritiska na ovom velikom kartica, ali ja znam šta ona donosi. To donosi više izloženosti i želim da koristim da izlaganje na pravi način. Znam da sam pogledao kao uzor i samo želim da biste koristili ovu izloženost.

 

“To će staviti veliki pažnju na boks i drago mi je da budem dio toga.

“Moj prsten Generala je jedna stvar, ali sve u svemu osećam se kao da imaju dobru ideju o tome šta želim da radim u ringu. Peter ima ideju previše, ali to je više trenutka u trenutak za njega, što može biti dobar kao i, kad improvizirati. Ja sam više tip koji će vas i rad na plan.

 

“Vraća i osvajanje borbu stvarno jača odlučnost. Znate li u vidu da je u svakom trenutku, imate priliku za pobjedu. Nikada nisam planiram da stoji iza ali se dešava. Ovo sam plan vremena da se vodi s prednje strane.

 

“Peter je uvredljiv, što ostavlja otvore. Mogao bi biti oprezan za neko vrijeme, jer oboje znamo da bi mogli platiti cijenu što ofanzive. Na kraju ćemo razmijeniti i to će biti eksplozivan jedan od načina drugi.

 

“Jućnjak sam udarač koji mogu kutiju i nikad nisam bio u dosadan borbi. Imam 'nikad ne reci umrijeti’ stav, a ja ne neko ko je samo da odem tamo i igrati na sigurno. Ja ću riskirati sve da osvoji.

PETER Quillin

 

“Svi prionemo na posao April 11 zato ćemo učiniti više nego samo pokušaj da se taj pojas, ćemo uzeti pojas, jer to je ono što mi radimo.

 

“Andy je prvak svijeta, ali ovo je drugi put da sam bio izazivač svjetski prvak. Bio sam ovdje prije. Znam da je nedavno okrunjen prvaci, tako da nemam ništa loše reći o njemu.

 

“najveća snaga Andy je da je izgubio dva puta i bio u mogućnosti da se vrate i da se izgledaju vrlo dobro.

 

“Ovo je potpuno različitog kalibra borbu nego bilo ko od nas ima. Ja nisam ništa od toga boraca da je lica. Ne mogu ići tamo i pokušaj da se bore kao Julio Cesar Chavez Jr.

 

“Samo sam zabrinut oko naporno, što sam učinio svaki dan koji su doveli do ove borbe. Tako da nemam problema na svim.

 

“Ja sam motivisan periodu. Moje srce je izgrađen na motivaciju u svemu. U razgovoru za medije, biti na NBC, bori za pojas i kao pozitivne osobe. Zahvalna sam da je svaki dan ne mogu ugasiti pozitivna priča o sebi.”

“Prvi glavni događaj večeri ima Andy Lee, prvak u srednjoj i ponosni borac Limerick. On je ratnik, on je najviše samopouzdanja trenutku u svojoj karijeri i on će morati da se zato što se bori neporažen prvak.

 

“Peter Quillin čini Brooklyn svom domu. To mu je treća borba u Barclays Center i on ima savršen rekord 31-0. On će pokušati da se Andy pojas, ali to neće biti lako.

Evo šta borci imaju da kažu na U utorak trening:

 

DANNY GARCIA

 

“Ja samo želim dati fanovima veliku borbu. Želim da vidi najbolje Danny Garcia. Na kraju dana, ovo je borba navijači žele da vide. Moj glavni fokus stavlja na veliku predstavu za fanove.

 

“Suočio sam se mnogo iskusniji bokseri u mojoj karijeri i ja i dalje neporažen. To bi trebalo reći fanova širom svijeta koji ima više vještina. Kao što su April 11 kad se oseća ove dvije bombe na licu on će zaboraviti svoju vještinu.

 

“Ja samo želim dati fanovima veliku borbu. Nisam previše zabrinut zbog ‘0’ na moj rekord. Borim se teško ga zaštitili ali moj glavni fokus je da ode tamo i obaviti posao jedna borba u jednom trenutku.

 

“Sve što sam učinio u mojoj karijeri je s razlogom. Sada sam ovdje na NBC-u bore na ovaj veliki igralište. To je odlično za boks i dašak svježeg zraka za sport.

 

“Ja samo želim da budu sigurni i skroman u isto vrijeme. Želim navijače da me vole jer sam bio ja. To je vrlo važno za mladu prvaka.

 

“Ja ću pokušati da diktira tempo, budi pametan, potez glavu, koristiti noge i zemljište pogodno udarce. Ne mogu pokušati da ga jurim.

 

“Nekada sam volela drugi veliki portorikanski bokseri kao Felix Trinidad, Miguel Cotto i Hector Camacho. Osećam se kao da sam definitivno rade svoj put gore u redove s njima i nakon njihovim stopama.

 

“Moram biti pametan u ringu. Moram da idem tamo i biti Danny Garcia. Ovdje sam zato što sam pametan borac. Svi znaju da je. Imam moć. Idem da nađem otvaranje i iskoristi svoje greške.”

 

 

LAMONT PETERSON

 

“Ovo je samo još jedna borba za mene. Ne brinem o tome da glavni događaj. Ja samo volim da se borim. Dokle god Borim se da sam sretna.

 

“Mnogo ljudi vide da se borimo i vidjeti nas odvesti udaraca, ali to je samo lakši deo. The sacrifice in the gym and putting my body through punishment is the rough part.

 

I’m not trying to prove anyone wrong, but this fight is important to me and I want to win it. I want to be the top guy and that means beating the top guy.

 

People talk about him beating Matthysse and Matthysse beating me, but anyone who knows about boxing knows that doesn’t mean anything. Kao što su Subota night I will prove to everyone that I’m a better fighter than Danny Garcia.

 

Angel Garcia has his opinion on this fight, and I respect it. He can go on record and say anything he wants, but if he says Danny Garcia is stronger than me, I’ll tell you that’s a lie.

 

We’re not worried about Danny’s power. Mnogi ljudi su me pitali o tome, ali ja ne brinem. Danny Garcia je imao split odluku Kendall Holt, ko sam nokautirao. Izgleda da niko ne spominje da je.

 

“Ja sam ugodno sa bilo koji način ova borba se nastavlja. Skoro sam se garantuje pobedu.

 

“Ja ne mislim da me vodiš olako. Na kraju dana, Garcia zna da je ovo borba i on zna da nije borio niko kao ja. Očekujem veliku pobjedu Subota noć.

 

“Nikad ne znaš šta ćeš vidjeti sa mnom. Sve što sam se kao da treba da uradim da pobedi, to je ono što ću učiniti. Ja sam spreman 100 posto. Ja sam u formi za 30 zaokružuje, a ja ću biti spreman na sve. ”

 

ANDY LEE

 

“Napravili smo nevjerovatno napredak u posljednjih godinu dana na moje sposobnosti i sve je zaista samo kliknuo za mene i moj tim, a sada vidimo rezultate u ringu.

 

“Veoma sam ponosan što Irac iz Limerick brani svjetsko prvenstvo u New Yorku, ne može bolje od toga.

 

“Došlo je do ogromne težine podigao sa ramena od osvajanja svjetski naslov. To je ono što sam oduvijek želio učiniti i sam reklamira kao prvak već godinama, a ako nisam dobila ja bih bio razočaran. Sada je majmun je sa mojih leđa i mogu samo kutiju i pokazati ljudima ko sam.

 

“Napravili smo fizički i taktički poboljšanja u teretani od posljednje borbe i nadam se da će se pojaviti u ring u subotu.

 

“Mislim da bi ovo mogla biti tehnički borba ili to može biti malo vatre. To će biti malo i na vrijeme. Tu će biti trenutaka u kojima gledamo jedni druge, figuring međusobno, ali kada smo razmijeniti bi mogao biti eksplozivna.

 

“Quillin je siguran u sebe, ali on mora biti, I ja imam isti mentalitet. Morate biti da se takmiči u ovom sportu.

 

“Borba kod kuće kao Quillin je u subotu, donosi drugačiju vrstu pritiska na stol, to je pritisak očekivanja i ljudi koje poznajete dolaze u borbama. To je i pritisak i znam sve o tome.

 

“Nisam potrebno da izgrade samopouzdanje za ovu borbu. To nije vremena za razmišljanje. To je vrijeme da radim ono što radim svaki dan u teretani.”

 

PETER Quillin

 

“Nikada nisam vučena u borbi i vratio i osvojio kao Lee. Upravo sam dobio sve vreme pravo iz vrata. Oni drugi momci nisu "Kid čokolade’ tako da mislim da je zašto je ova borba.

 

“To je velika borba za njega i velika borba za mene. On je pametan borac kad je u nevolji, pa moram paziti da. Ono što je najvažnije samo moram biti iskren prema sebi.

 

“Mnogi ljudi su imali Lee kao autsajder u svojoj zadnjoj borbi, ali on je izašao i učinio veliku. To je stvar o boksu; jedan udarac može promijeniti borbu.

 

“Plaćen sam za 12 kola tako da se spremam za 12 runde, ali ako ne mogu ga odande rano hoću.

 

“Moj cijeli život je bio borba a ja sam morao da prevaziđe svaki od tih borbi. Ovo će biti ne razlikuje od onog.

 

“Biti otac naravno me više nadahnuta i gledanje moj stric dodavanje još me više motivirani nego ikada ostvariti sve što želim.

 

“Kada sam odustao od pojasa naučio sam da mogu biti veći čovjek i donese teške odluke kao i svi vremena da. Ljudi misle da porazi lako, ali osvajanje svih vremena je drugačija vrsta pritiska.”

 

Errol SPENCE JR.

 

“Ja sam najbolji mladi izglede u igri. Ja sam na granici statusa kandidat i mislim da sam jedna borba daleko od toga da bude kandidat.

 

“Ja sam pomalo style mix-mudar. Ja sam bokser, Ja mogu udariti i ja da se borim ako moram.

 

The fight I learned the most from was with Emanuel Lartey, he was undefeated along with me and it was my first real fight and first time going the distance.

 

I see myself fighting all the top guys in the welterweight division. I see myself with Keith Thurman, Amir Khan and any top welterweight.

 

I’m going to look good as always u subotu noć, It’s going to be fantastic and I’m going to come out with the victory.

 

MARCUS BROWNE

 

I’m just blessed to have this opportunity to fight at Barclays Center for the eighth time in front of my hometown fans.

 

I love performing in in Brooklyn. The fans here are fantastic and they know when I get in the ring they’re going to see something special.

 

I have a tough opponent in front of me. On je iskusio, vrlo Lanky borac ali smo obučeni teško i spreman sam na sve što ima.

 

Subota će biti velika noć za Tim Browne, Staten Island i sve svoje fanove. Ne trepere jer si mogao propustiti!”

 

Luis Collazo

 

“Proveo sam neko vrijeme sa porodicom, pregrupisanje i pazeći i dalje imam istu strast za ovaj sport. Uzbuđen sam što sam se vratio i sam skočio na priliku da budem na ovoj kartici.

 

“To je ono što ja živim za. Boks je moj život.

 

“Nakon što je Khan boriti Uzeo sam oko mjesec dana off, a onda sam otišao pravo u teretanu. Nisam mogao izaći kao i ja protiv Khan. Nema opravdanja, ali da je vrijeme da se vratimo na crtanje i boravak motivirani tijekom cijele godine.

 

“Navijači mogu očekivati ​​isti uzbuđenje ja uvek nosim. Ja više motivirani sada i nadam se da nakon ove borbe mogu dobiti veliku borbu i daju fanovima ono što žele.”

 

HEATHER HARDY

 

“Ja sam isto razmišljanja idu u svaku borbu. Treniram da se borim moja borba i prilagođavanje kada se tamo.

 

“Osećam jak i osećam sposoban sve što treba da se uradi.

 

“Samo sam se boks za četiri godine, tako da još uvek učim puno boksa tehnike u kampu plus rade tri ili četiri dana u tjednu sa svojim trenerom kondicioni.

 

“Fanovi mogu očekivati ​​dobru predstavu i veliki dobitak od mene u subotu.”
