NEW YORK CITY (Ožujak 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 borbe (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 posljednjoj 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) Ne. 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

Ostavite komentar

“Crossroads” results from New Hampshire

DERRY, N.H. (Travanj 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 Lee, Sergio Mora (dvaput) aSerhiy 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, neporaženi 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 za 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.”

Popular Boston IrishmanJimmy Torney (3-0, 3 Kos) – 6’ 6”, 269 lbs. – needed only 42-seconds and one big right to stop pro-debuting heavyweightMarco Nascimento. 

Massachusetts welterweightEric “Gladiator” Goff convincingly won his pro debut againstJader Alves(0-5) as he pitched a 4-round shutout

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.

U borbi bez naslova, New England welterweight championMike “Bad Man” Ohan, Jr. (12-1, 6 Kos) schooled his 54-fight Las Vegas opponent, junior srednjojRynell Griffin. Ohan decked Griffin three times in the first round, the third with a left hook to the body from which Griffin was unable to beat the count.

Canadian cruiserweightYan “Wild Thing” Pellerin (11-1, 5 Kos) landed two stinging rights to the body of 63-fight veteranSteve “The Spoiler” Walker, both flooring the Missouri fighter, the second resulting in an opening-round knockout for the vacant ABF Atlantic title.

Connecticut welterweightOmar “The Beast” Borday, Jr. (1101, 3 Kos) dominated 65-fight journeymanDewayne Wisdom en route to a one-sided 8-round unanimous decision.

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

Ostavite komentar

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 Saunders’ appeal 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 ‘Canelo’ Alvarez next year, rather than throw him in with ‘GGG’ once 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, previše, 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 Stevens’ lights 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

Ostavite komentar

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

 

Borba, koji je postigao 115-111, 114-112 a 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 POKAZATELJI: 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.

 

S pobjedom, 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 srednjoj svjetski prvak Daniel Jacobs, fresh off a first round knockout of Peter Quillin two weeks ago on SHOWTIME, was a guest analyst u subotu iz New Yorka.

 

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

 

Irska 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 kandidat.

 

The SHOWTIME Boks INTERNATIONAL prinos odBoxNation telecast will feature analysis from SHOWTIME boxing experts Brian Custer, Al Bernstein a 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) a (Genadij) 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 kao jednostavan kao taj. 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.”

I believe that Lee vs. Saunders will be another great fight to add to that list because of what’s at stake for both fighters. What lies ahead for the winner will make them fight to their very best.”

BROOKLYN (Travanj 12, 2015) – Premier Boks prvaka na Nacionalna komunikaciona mreža returned with two exciting bouts Subota night as Danny “Brz” Garcia (30-0, 17 Kos) poražen Lamont Peterson (33-3-1, 17 Kos) by majority decision and “Irci” Andy Lee (34-2-1, 24 Kos) a Nestajati “Kid Čokolada” Quillin (31-0-1, 22 Kos) fought to a split draw at Barclays Center.

 

The evening’s second main event saw the undefeated Garcia stalk the lightning quick Peterson around the ring while consistently attacking Peterson’s body. Peterson moved well in the first half of the fight, but did not begin engaging offensively until the later rounds.

 

The two exchanged blows throughout a raucous twelfth round that stirred the crowd of 12,300 at Barclays Center into a frenzy. The judges tallies ended at 115-113 for Garcia twice and one score of 114-114.

 

“Osjećam se super. I prepared for a war. He was moving a lot. I thought it was close, not going to lie,” Said Garcia. “It was definitely close the whole way through. I did enough to win and I’m happy with my performance.

 

[On going up in weight] “I feel like I have to go up. It’s affecting my performance, 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. Osjećam se super. That’s probably the least contact I’ve ever had in a fight.”

 

In the first main event, Quillin scored a huge knockdown in the first round and followed it up by putting Lee on the canvas in round three. Lee made adjustments as the fight went on and began to box Quillin effectively, even putting him down in the seventh round.

 

Lee and Quillin landed almost the same percentage of punches with Lee connecting on 38 percent and Quillin on 39 posto. One judge scored the bout 113-112 for Lee with another scoring the bout 113-112 for Quillin and the final had a score of 113-113.

 

“There’s a reason why judges are judges. They see it their way. I respect the decision,” Said Quillin.

 

[On being knocked down] “There’s a first time for everything. I’m very thankful that I was able to get back up and keep fighting. I took a year off and I was able to go 12-rounds and I could have kept going.”

 

“To je bio tvrd borba. He dropped me early because I was being lazy. I got my momentum late in the fight and I boxed consistently. I understand why with two knockdowns people felt he won the decision. I could have done better večeras. If my next fight is Peter Quillin.”

Here are what the fighters had to say at Thursday’s press conference:

 

DANNY GARCIA

 

“I’ve been working on fighting hard, but also smart. I’m going to go in there and dictate the pace and I’m always looking for the knockout. If I can’t knock him out then I’ll be ready to go 12 kola.

 

“It’s always hard making weight, but I’m on weight now. Right now I’m growing into my prime and my body is getting bigger and it’ll be time soon for me to go up in weight.

 

“I’m looking at this as a very big fight. So I’m going in there mentally and physically ready. He’s coming to fight and I’m coming to fight. Subota is going to be about who can make the right adjustments.

 

“I love Brooklyn. This is my fourth fight here and I’ve heard that the tickets for this fight are selling faster than any other fight they’ve held here. So I must be doing something right in Brooklyn. The atmosphere is great at Barclays Center.

 

“I’ve always felt that I’m one of the best pound-for-pound fighters in the world. I’ve won a lot of big fights with a lot of great fighters, and my goal is just continue winning one fight at a time.”

 

LAMONT PETERSON

“Danny’s talk makes no difference to me. I think I’m even more confident than him and I’ll get the victory Subota night and that will be that.

 

“The stakes are high. This can definitely push me to the next level in this boxing game. I’ve been at the top for a while but there’s a difference between being at the top and being an elite fighter. I think this will solidify me as an elite fighter.

 

“I looked at a few of Danny’s fights but nothing really stood out to me. I know Danny is a counterpuncher, that’s what he does. We’ve come up with a game plan to stop that.

 

“I’m a different person than the other guys Danny has fought. I’m a different person with a different style. I trust myself to make adjustments in the ring.

 

“This fight will be different than either of our fights with Matthysse. It’s two different fights and styles make fights. There will be different results. I had to prepare for Danny Garcia and Danny Garcia had to prepare for me.

 

“There’s no pressure fighting on this big card, but I know what it brings. This brings more exposure and I want to use that exposure in the right way. I know I’m looked up to as a role model and I just want to use this exposure.

 

“This will put a big spotlight on boxing and I’m happy to be a part of it.

 

“Spreman sam se boriti, I’ve prepared well and I’m ready to put on a show.”

 

ANDY LEE

 

“I’m eager to fight and ready to go. I’m feeling very dangerous right now.

 

“My ring generalship is one thing, but overall I feel like I have a good idea of what I want to do in the ring. Peter has an idea too, but it’s more moment to moment for him, which can be good as well, when you improvise. I’m more of a guy who will set you up and work to a plan.

 

“Coming back and winning a fight really strengthens your resolve. You know in your mind that at any time, you have a chance of winning. I never plan to be behind but it happens. This time I plan to lead from the front.

 

“Peter is offensive, which leaves openings. He might be cautious for a while because both of us know that we might pay the price of being offensive. Eventually we’ll exchange and it will be explosive one way of the other.

 

“I’m a southpaw puncher who can box and I’ve never been in a dull fight. I have a ‘never say die’ attitude and I’m not someone who is just going to go out there and play it safe. I’ll risk it all to win.

 

“My confidence is very high. I’m the champion of the world and there’s no higher station than that in boxing. I’m the champion and he’ll have to come and take my title.”

 

PETER QUILLIN

 

“Everyone tune in on Travanj 11 because we’re going to do more than just try to take that belt, we’re going to take that belt because that’s what we do.

 

“Andy is the champion of the world but this is the second time I’ve been the challenger to a world champion. I’ve been here before. I know he’s a newly crowned champion so I have nothing bad to say about him.

 

“Andy’s greatest strength is that he lost twice and was able to come back and make himself look very good.

 

“This is a totally different caliber fight than either of us has had. I’m not any of those fighters that he’s faced. I can’t go in there and try to fight like a Julio Cesar Chavez Jr.

 

“I’m only concerned about working hard, which I’ve done every day leading up to this fight. So I have no concerns at all.

 

“I’m motivated period. My heart is built on motivation in all things. Talking to media, being on NBC, fighting for the belt and being a positive person. I’m thankful that every day I can put out a positive story about myself.”

LOU DIBELLA, Predsjednik DiBella Entertainment

 

“We have a great night of boxing from beginning to end, you will be hearing a lot more from these young fighters.

 

“If you want to see everything, get there to Barclays Center at 5 poslije podne.

 

“We’re very thrilled that this is going to be televised in primetime on NBC. PBC na NBC. It has a nice ring to it.

 

“The first main event of the evening features Andy Lee, middleweight champion and the fighting pride of Limerick. He is a warrior, he’s at the most confident point of his career and he’s going to need to be because he’s fighting an undefeated champion.

 

“Peter Quillin makes Brooklyn his home. It’s his third fight at Barclays Center and he has a perfect record of 31-0. He’s going to try to take Andy’s belt, ali to neće biti lako.

 

“The bout that will close the show is one of the most eagerly anticipated bouts in all of boxing. Lamont Peterson is noted for being one of the most technically sound boxers in the game and he has an outstanding record to a back it up.

 

“Danny Garcia really embodies what it means to be a Philadelphia fighter. He’s a tough guy with an undefeated record. He’s going to look to keep that record perfect against Lamont Peterson.”

 

JON MILLER, Predsjednik, Programiranje, NBC Sports & NBCSN

 

“On behalf of NBC Sports we’re thrilled to be a part of this and to be in our own backyard. We couldn’t pick a better venue than Barclays Center. The card put together is spectacular. There are great fights once again and we’re excited about the progress that this new property has taken for us.

 

“I think one of the most unique things about ove subote night is that it’s going to make history in television because three of the most venerable and outstanding sports television personalities will be working together for the first time as Al Michaels will be our host, Marv Albert will be doing play-by-play and for the first time ever they will be joined by Bob Costas.

 

“These three iconic figures have worked Olympics and Super Bowls but it’s the first time they’ve ever worked together on one event and that is a tribute to what the entire has put together in delivering this great card.”

 

Brett YORMARK, CEO Barclays Center

 

“Ove subote marks a historic moment for Barclays Center as we host our 11thprofessional boxing event and our first Premier Boxing Champions event.

 

“When you combine the talent in the ring, the production of the show and the iconic broadcasting team of Al Michael, Bob Costas and Marv Albert plus boxing legend Sugar Ray Leonard this will be one of the best fight nights that New York has hosted in decades.

 

“Signifying the magnitude of the event, tickets have sold faster than at any other boxing show Barclays Center has hosted.

 

“At Barclays Center, we have not only served as a launch pad for many local boxers’ careers, but have relished in the role of becoming the home for Champions.”

Evo na što su borci morali reći Utorak vježbati:

 

DANNY GARCIA

 

“Želim samo pružiti sjajnu borbu navijačima. Želim da vide najboljeg Dannyja Garciju. Na kraju dana, ovo je borba koju navijači žele vidjeti. Moj glavni fokus je priređivanje sjajne predstave za obožavatelje.

 

“U karijeri sam se suočio s puno spretnih boksača i još uvijek sam neporažen. To bi trebalo reći obožavateljima širom svijeta tko ima više vještina. Kao što Travanj 11 kad na licu osjeti ove dvije bombe, zaboravit će na svoju vještinu.

 

“Želim samo pružiti sjajnu borbu navijačima. Nisam previše zabrinut zbog ‘0’ na moju ploču. Borim se snažno da bih je zaštitio, ali moj glavni fokus je ući tamo i obaviti posao jedan po jedan.

 

“Sve što sam radio u karijeri s razlogom je. Sad sam ovdje na NBC-u koji se bori na ovom velikom igralištu. Ovo je izvrsno za boks i dašak svježeg zraka za ovaj sport.

 

“Samo želim istovremeno biti samopouzdana i skromna. Želim da me fanovi vole jer sam svoja. To je vrlo važno za mladog prvaka.

 

“Pokušat ću diktirati tempo, budi pametan, pomakni mi glavu, upotrijebi moja stopala i udari dobre udarce. Ne mogu ga pokušati progoniti.

 

“Nekad sam volio druge sjajne portorikanske boksače poput Felixa Trinidada, Miguel Cotto i Hector Camacho. Osjećam da se definitivno probijam do njih i slijedim njihove korake.

 

“Moram biti pametan u ringu. Moram ući tamo i biti Danny Garcia. Ovdje sam jer sam pametan borac. To svi znaju. Imam moć. Pronaći ću svoje otvaranje i iskoristiti njegove pogreške.”

 

 

LAMONT PETERSON

 

“Ovo je samo još jedna borba za mene. Ne brinem se što ću biti glavni događaj. Ja samo volim da se bori. Sve dok se borim sretna sam.

 

“Mnogi nas vide kako se tučemo i vide kako udaramo, ali to je samo lakši dio. Žrtvovanje u teretani i kažnjavanje mog tijela grub je dio.

 

“Ne pokušavam dokazati da netko griješi, ali ova borba mi je važna i želim je dobiti. Želim biti najbolji čovjek, a to znači pobijediti vrhunskog.

 

“Ljudi pričaju kako je on tukao Matthyssea, a Matthysse mene, ali onaj tko zna za boks zna da to ne znači ništa. Kao što Subota navečer ću svima dokazati da sam bolji borac od Dannyja Garcije.

 

“Angel Garcia ima svoje mišljenje o ovoj borbi, i ja to poštujem. Može snimati i reći sve što poželi, ali ako kaže da je Danny Garcia jači od mene, Reći ću vam da je to laž.

 

“Ne brinemo se zbog Dannyjeve moći. Mnogi su me ljudi pitali o tome, ali nisam zabrinut. Danny Garcia imao je podijeljenu odluku s Kendallom Holtom, koga sam nokautirao. Čini se da to nitko ne spominje.

 

“Ugodno mi je kako god krenula ova borba. Gotovo garantiram pobjedu.

 

“Mislim da me ne shvaćaju olako. Na kraju dana, Garcia zna da je ovo borba i zna da se nije borio ni s kim poput mene. Očekujem veliku pobjedu Subota noć.

 

“Nikad ne znaš što ćeš vidjeti sa mnom. Što god osjećam da moram učiniti za pobjedu, to ću učiniti. Spreman sam 100 posto. U formi sam za 30 krugova i bit ću spreman na sve. ”

 

ANDY LEE

 

“U posljednjih godinu dana postigli smo nevjerojatan napredak u mojim vještinama i sve je stvarno kliknulo za mene i moj tim, a sada vidimo rezultate u ringu.

 

“Ponosan sam što sam Irac iz Limericka koji brani svoje svjetsko prvenstvo u New Yorku, ne postaje puno bolje od toga.

 

“Otkako sam osvojio svjetski naslov, dignuta mi je velika težina s ramena. To sam oduvijek želio raditi, a godinama su me slavili kao prvaka i da ga nikad nisam dobio, bio bih razočaran. Sad mi je majmun s leđa i mogu samo boksati i pokazati ljudima tko sam.

 

“Od posljednje borbe napravili smo fizička i taktička poboljšanja u teretani i nadamo se da će se oni pojaviti u ringu u subotu.

 

“Mislim da bi ovo mogla biti tehnička borba ili malo vatrogasna borba. Povremeno će biti malo oboje. Bit će trenutaka kada se gledamo, odgonetavajući jedno drugo, ali kad jednom razmijenimo, moglo bi biti eksplozivno.

 

“Quillin je siguran u sebe, ali mora biti, Ja imam isti mentalitet. Morate biti da biste se natjecali u ovom sportu.

 

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

 

“Nisam trebao stvoriti svoje samopouzdanje za ovu borbu. Nije vrijeme za razmišljanje. Vrijeme je da radim ono što sam radio svaki dan u teretani.”

 

PETER QUILLIN

 

“Nikad nisam zaostajao u borbi i vratio se i pobijedio kao Lee. Upravo sam cijelo vrijeme pobjeđivao odmah ispred vrata. Ti drugi dečki nisu 'Kid Chocolate’ pa mislim da je zato napravljena ova borba.

 

“To je velika borba za njega i velika borba za mene. Pametan je borac kad je u nevolji pa na to moram pripaziti. Najvažnije je da jednostavno moram biti vjeran sebi.

 

“Mnogi su ljudi imali Leea kao undersaga u njegovoj posljednjoj borbi, ali on je izašao i sjajno se snašao. To je stvar boksa; jedan udarac može promijeniti borbu.

 

“Plaćam 12 krugova pa se pripremam za 12 runde, ali ako ga uspijem rano izvući, hoću.

 

“Cijeli moj život su borbe i morao sam prevladati svaku pojedinu od tih borbi. Ovo se neće ništa razlikovati od toga.

 

“Budući da sam otac, naravno, učinilo me nadahnutijim, a promatranje strica prošao me motiviranije nego ikad da ostvarim sve što želim.

 

“Kad sam odustao od pojasa, naučio sam da mogu biti veći čovjek i cijelo vrijeme donositi teške odluke poput toga. Ljudi misle da je lako izgubiti, ali stalno je pobjeda drugačija vrsta pritiska.”

 

ERROL SPENCE JR.

 

“Ja sam najbolji mladi potencijalni igrač. Na granici sam statusa kandidata i vjerujem da sam samo jedna borba od toga da budem kandidat.

 

“Stilski sam malo mješavina. Ja sam boksač, Mogu udarati i mogu se boriti ako moram.

 

“Borba iz koje sam najviše naučio bila je s Emanuelom Larteyem, bio je neporažen zajedno sa mnom i to mi je bila prva prava borba i prvi put da sam prešao daljinu.

 

“Vidim sebe kako se borim sa svim najboljim momcima u velter kategoriji. Vidim se s Keithom Thurmanom, Amir Khan i bilo koji vrhunski velter kategorija.

 

“Izgledat ću dobro kao i uvijek u subotu noć, Bit će fantastično i izaći ću s pobjedom.”

 

Marcus Browne

 

“Upravo sam blagoslovljen što imam priliku da se osmi put borim u Barclays Centeru pred svojim rodnim navijačima.

 

“Volim nastupati u Brooklynu. Ovdje su navijači fantastični i znaju kad uđem u ring vidjet će nešto posebno.

 

“Ispred sebe imam žilavog protivnika. On je doživio, vrlo lenjiv borac, ali jako smo trenirali i spreman sam na sve što ima.

 

“Subota bit će sjajna noć za Team Browne, Staten Island i svi moji obožavatelji. Ne trepnite jer bi vam moglo nedostajati!”

 

Luis Collazo

 

“Proveo sam neko vrijeme s obitelji, pregrupirao sam se i uvjerio se da i dalje imam istu strast prema ovom sportu. Uzbuđena sam što sam se vratila i iskoristila sam priliku da budem na ovoj kartici.

 

“Za to živim. Boks je moj život.

 

“Nakon Khan borbe uzeo sam oko mjesec dana pauze, a zatim sam otišao ravno u teretanu. Nisam mogao izaći kao protiv Khana. Nema isprike, ali bilo je vrijeme da se vratimo na ploču za crtanje i ostanemo motivirani tijekom cijele godine.

 

“Navijači mogu očekivati ​​isto uzbuđenje koje uvijek donosim. Sada sam motiviraniji i nadam se da nakon ove borbe mogu dobiti veliku borbu i pružiti navijačima ono što žele.”

 

HEATHER HARDY

 

“Imam isti način razmišljanja koji ulazi u svaku borbu. Treniram da se borim i napravim prilagodbe kad uđem tamo.

 

“Osjećam se snažno i osjećam se sposobnim za sve što treba učiniti.

 

“Boksam tek četiri godine pa još uvijek puno učim boksačku tehniku ​​u kampu plus radim tri ili četiri dana u tjednu sa svojim trenerom snage i kondicije.

 

“Navijači mogu očekivati ​​dobru predstavu i veliku pobjedu u subotu.”
