WBC SANCTIONS SUPER ÉLIMINATEUR DE POIDS MOYEN ENTRE DAVID BENAVIDEZ ET ROGELIO MEDINA POUR #2 OBLIGATOIRE AU CHAMPIONNAT DU MONDE


Maintenant que la sanction a été officiellement accordée, le prochain combat pour le super-moyen invaincu brûlant David “Le drapeau rouge” Benavidez sera un éliminateur pour la #2 place de challenger obligatoire dans le classement mondial de la WBC contre le concurrent réputé Rogelio “Porky” Medina, de Sonora, Mexique.

Callum Smith classé n ° 1 au WBC et Anthony Dirrell, classé n ° 2 au WBC, se battront pour le poste 168 Championnat WBC (provisoirement prévu pour mai), le vainqueur de ce combat doit alors affronter WBC invaincu #3 concurrent, Avni Yildirim, de la Turquie. Le champion à l'issue de ces deux combats sera mandaté pour affronter le vainqueur du Benavidez vs. Éliminateur de médina.

Pour Benavidez (17-0, 16 KOs), qui a été le principal partenaire d'entraînement pour les récents préparatifs du champion des poids moyens Gennady Golovkin pour affronter Danny Jacobs, la nouvelle du combat avec Medina est un développement bienvenu.

“C'est la plus grande opportunité de ma vie et je ne vais pas la laisser se perdre,” Ledit Benavidez. “Je vais détruire ce mec comme je le fais avec tout le monde. Je ne me suis jamais entraîné aussi dur pour un combat et je le sens, viens le temps du combat, Je serai extrêmement fort et je le ferai.”

Considéré comme un prodige de la boxe par beaucoup, Benavidez, 20 ans, qui est devenu professionnel à l'âge 16, est le frère de l'ancien intérimaire WBA World Super Lightweight Jose Benavidez, et a été formé depuis l'âge de deux ans par son père Jose Benavidez Sr.

Le père / entraîneur Jose dit que tout le monde dans l'équipe Benavidez est conscient de ce qui est en jeu contre la formidable Médina, qui a perdu une décision controversée face au champion du monde IBF James DeGale l’année dernière, dans un combat que beaucoup pensaient que Medina avait gagné.

“Nous sommes enthousiastes et travaillons très dur,” il dit. “C'est le combat le plus dur de sa carrière, donc on prend ça très au sérieux. C'est une grande opportunité pour nous de briller et de bien paraître et de passer au niveau supérieur. Nous nous entraînions avec Golovkin ici à Big Bear (Californie) et nous avons décidé de rester ici et de continuer à nous entraîner jusqu'au combat.”

“Je sais que c’est un combattant coriace et qu’il a été dans de nombreuses guerres, et il a beaucoup d'expérience, mais je suis très motivé pour ce combat,” continua David. “Nous avons déjà un mois et demi d'entraînement avec Golovkin au camp. Camper avec lui est un travail difficile et s'entraîner ici à Big Bear vous permet de passer au niveau supérieur. Le travail acharné que je fais ici me permettra certainement d’obtenir cette victoire.”

Le promoteur Lewkowicz dit que toutes les questions restantes sur le jeune Benavidez trouveront une réponse dans ce combat.

“C'est le test final pour David Benavidez,” a déclaré Lewkowicz. “S'il fait à ce gars ce qu'il a fait à d'autres combattants, il sera temps pour le monde de reconnaître que David va être une star de la boxe. Ce test montrera à tout le monde qu'il est vraiment tout ce que nous disons depuis qu'il est adolescent. Je suis fier du travail acharné qu'il accomplit et j'ai hâte de remporter cette grande victoire.”

La date et le lieu du combat sont en cours de négociation. Plus de détails à suivre.

Here is what Lara had to say about Foreman, training camp with Ronnie Shields and more:
Sur son récent camp d'entraînement…
We just wrapped up about a week and we got some good rest during fight week. Training camp has been very productive. I’m comfortable with my weight and I feel strong going into this fight. My strength and conditioning is right where I want it. Ronnie and I are always polishing up on the things I do well. Global, it’s been a great camp.
On facing former world champion Yuri Foreman
I’m grateful to Yuri Foreman for accepting this fight. I know he’s hungry to get back in the ring. He wants to prove that he’s still relevant in the super welterweight division. He’s a former world champion who knows what it’s like to win at the elite level. I’m not looking past Yuri Forman, but I’m very confident I’ll be victorious. I feel I’m going to be the superior fighter when we both step in the ring demain nuit.”
On returning to Miami to fight in front of a large Cuban community
My last fight here was amazing and the fan support was unbelievable. I got the knockout and I’m hoping to do the same again. If I see my opponent hurt, I’ll be looking to take him out. I love my Cuban countrymen and all their support, as well as my American fans. Miami is like a second home to me and I can’t wait to give the fans a great show.
On the state of the super welterweight division
The division, pour moi, is the most talented division in boxing. Everyone at the top is looking to cement their legacy in boxing history and everyone is spectacular. À l'avenir, we will all have to face each other at some point. Si, expect some unification bout to be presented, and may the best man rise to the top. I know I’m ready to fight everyone, but first I must get past Foreman.
On fighting in the main event on Spike
Fighting on Spike, comme l'événement principal, is going to fantastic. The exposure is wonderful for any athlete competing on their network. La boxe est un grand sport, and Spike TV is helping us gain more fans with their viewers. The PBC is doing an excellent job. I’m very happy to be fighting on network television.

Erislandy Lara
Thank you everyone for coming, especially Spike TV and Hialeah Park. Thanks to Team Foreman for taking this fight. Ça va être un grand combat Vendredi nuit.
Yuri Foreman is a great fighter and a very smart fighter. I am also a very smart fighter, si Vendredi night we’re going to find out who is the smarter one in the ring.
“Je me sens bien. Very happy to be back in Miami in front of my Cuban and Latin fans. This is a great night for Miami and Spike and I plan on putting on a show and making a statement to the boxing world.
“Je me sens bien. I’m in great shape and feel very strong. I’m ready to fight right now. I just want the bell to ring.
Yuri Foreman
It’s great to be here in Miami where it’s nice and warm and with so many great fighters on this card. I’m ready and looking forward to Vendredi. I came here to win and I feel very positive about this.
Erislandy Lara is a great fighter, but me being from the Soviet Union, I’m very familiar with Cuban boxing and have quite a bit of experience with their style, so I’m looking forward to stepping in and showcasing my talents and skills.
Being a rabbi, it is sometimes very interesting to mix that with fighting, mais Vendredi night I won’t be in rabbi mode. I will be all fighter. We are going to show skills and heart and power vendredi nuit.”
Anthony Dirrell
I think this is my third Spike event and I’m happy to be fighting on a show with two great fighters like Lara and Foreman.
It’s going to be a hell of a show. We are going to put on a great show. All the fights on the card are tremendous fightsundefeated fighters fighting undefeated fighters and champions fighting champions and we are all coming to win.
I was going to talk a lot of trash to him (Nemespati), but he can’t understand me anyway. I am looking forward to a great fight against a good opponent like him. Assurez-vous de syntoniser vendredi and catch the action!”
NORBERT NEMESAPATI
I am coming in as the smaller fighter, so I will have to put a lot of pressure on him. I sparred a lot of rounds for this fight, with a lot of tall guys. That’s fine with me that he is taller because I love to punch to the body.
I might never get another opportunity like this, so I have to make the most of it. This is a beautiful place and I’m coming to the ring to win big. Thank you for this very special opportunity.
MIGUEL CRUZ
I wish that Alex Martin was here so I could talk a little smack to his face.
“13-0, 11 KOs vs. 13-0, 5 KOs… basically somebody’s ‘0’ has to go and I can give you a hintit’s not going to be mine.
I’m going to crush him like an ant with a sledgehammer. I’m going to destroy him. That’s the plan. Ne le manquez pas.”

ATLANTIC CITY, New Jersey (Avril 30, 2016) – Médaillé de bronze olympique Andre Dirrell (25-2, 16 KOs) defeated Australia’s Blake Caparello (22-2-1, 6 KOs) par décision unanime (98-91 X 3) in a 10-round super middleweight attraction in the Premier Champions de boxe (PBC) sur Épi main event from the Taj Mahal Casino and Hotel in Atlantic City, New Jersey.
In a bout that started off with a lot of back and forth action, Caparello struck first with a left in the second round that sent Dirrell to the canvas.
The knockdown I got in the second round felt good,” Saïd Caparello. “I knew I had him hurt, but I wasn’t able to capitalize on it.
Caparello again got Dirrell against the ropes and seemingly into a bit of trouble with a similar left in round three, but eventually Dirrell settled in and managed to gain control of the fight.
Dirrell a dit, “My focus, determination and my drive got me the win ce soir. I know I’ve got more work to do, but I never stopped grinding in there ce soir.”
Caparello continued to go to work and battle, but it was clear who the ring general was from the close of the third round and until the final bell rang.
Dirrell exclaimed, “I wanted to send the boxing world and this whole division a message. I’m coming for anyone with a belt. I’ll take on anyone who’s a champion. I know I’ll be a world champion. I have to be a champion. I don’t slow down for anyone. I’m going to keep pushing to get where I’m going.
On his struggles in the later rounds, Caparello said, “I continued to look for the same left hand all night, it just didn’t come again. Andre has a lot of tricks, he is both good and fast. I am not happy with my performance.
Dirrell concluded, “Ce soir my brother and I were both able to display our talents in front of a national audience on Spike. Anthony is strong as an ox and got the win quickly ce soir. I got the win on determination and heart. I had to use my toughness in this fight, and I pushed myself as hard as I could to get the win.
In the second televised bout of the evening, ancien champion du monde Anthony “Le Chien” Dirrell (29-1-1, 23 KOs) met former world title challenger Caleb “D'or” Truax (26-3-2, 16 KOs) in a 10-round super middleweight affair.
The former 168-pound titleholder Dirrell got off to a quick start, scoring two knockdowns in the first round, causing referee Harvey Dock to stop the fight at just 1:49 dans le premier tour.
Dirrell said of the dominating performance, “What helped me ce soir was landing my shots early. I was right on top of him with combinations and controlling my jab and that set the tone. J'ai montré ce soir that I work hard in the gym, and it paid off. If I work like I did this time leading up to the fight, then I know nobody can beat me.
A stunned Truax said, “Everything was great leading up to the fight. Je ne sais pas ce qui est arrivé ce soir. He just caught me early. I think it was an overhand right.
Reflecting on what the victory means for his struggling hometown of Flint, MON, Dirrell a dit, “My work ce soir inside the ring made a big statement for what my brother and I are doing outside of the ring. A lot of people were watching ce soir, and now they know a little bit more about what’s going on with the Flint Water Crisis back home.
The opening televised bout featured undefeated knockout artist Jonathan Guzman (21-0, 21 KOs) continuing his hot streak in a 12-round super bantamweight title eliminator against Mexico’s Daniel Rosas (20-3, 12 KOs).
Guzman, an unbeaten fighter out of the Dominican Republic and now training in Massachusetts, stabilized early and easily controlled the action in the second half of the fight.
Guzman said, “I used a lot of concentration early and let him make errors so I could see what he was planning to do. Once I saw the mistakes he was making I let my hands go.
Rosas was stunned in the third round, but Guzman was unable to close on the wobbled fighter. Dans la cinquième ronde, Guzman landed a left that knocked Rosas back and followed it with another, dropping Rosas just before the bell.
I wanted to let him throw some punches early. It helped me gain confidence and learn his tendencies,” said Guzman. “I saw him dropping that right hand, and I knew it would open up the opportunity for me to land my left.
Rounds six and seven saw Rosas take a pummeling, but miraculously stay on his feet. At the end of the eighth frame, Guzman dropped Rosas for a second time, and again Rosas was saved by the bell.
Cependant, referee Benjy Esteves had seen enough and stopped the fight following the close of round eight.
When asked about the stoppage, Rosas said, “The ref stopped the fight. I thought the fight should have continued, but he decided to stop it.Rosas continued, “(Guzman) knocked me down, but I kept on fighting. On ne m'a jamais fait mal. Guzman is a strong fighter, but I felt I could have continued and come back in the rest of the rounds.

Voici ce que les combattants avaient à dire Mercredi:

Andre Dirrell

I can tell that Caparello is coming from Australia to prove a point. He’s hungry for a victory and It’s my job to make sure he doesn’t get that. I take this as a championship fight.

The blessing in having a layoff is that my body is in great shape. I feel 25-years-old not 32.

I don’t see myself as the smaller man. I suppose he can take a few shots but I am going to display my skill and show that it will lead to a world championship.

I feel I am at the championship level. I’ll have an eye on the 168-pound title fightsSamedi. I’m looking to get that championship as soon as I can. I am ready and I want DeGale. I don’t care if it’s in his hometown, backyard, basement, living room or kitchen. I want to make sure that fight happens.

I worked really hard and I can’t wait to get in the ring vendredi nuit.”

BLAKE CAPARELLO

It’s good to be back in Atlantic City. I took a lot from my fight against Sergey Kovalev. Being in the ring with him taught me a lot about ring composure. This is my Atlantic City redemption.

Dirrell is a very difference fighter. Andre is very quick and slick. I can’t afford to make minor mistakes. I didn’t make the 20-hour flight for a loss. I was small for 175 pounds which made the move to 168 very comfortable.

The plan is to win and fight one of the champions but fighting Andre is a world title for me.

People don’t think that I can punch, but I’m coming to win and put on a show. I’m looking to bring a victory back to Australia.

Anthony Dirrell

It means a lot to share this card with my brother. We share everything. He is my big brother and this is a great moment for both of us.

I will be watching the super middleweight title fights Samedi nuit, but I am not looking past Caleb Truax.

I know Truax has fought some good competition in Daniel Jacobs and Jermain Taylor. I have my hands full but I prepared to have my hand lifted in Victory.

I think the loss made me a better fighter because I know what it takes to get there. I am just looking for the next shot. When I get it, I’m going to capitalize and not let the title go.

I’m going to stick to my game plan and try to get Truax out of there. Then I can start thinking about Badou Jack. I definitely want a rematch.

CALEB TRUAX

I have to make the most of this opportunity. Ceci est un énorme combat pour moi. I can get another shot at a world title with a win.

Dirrell is a good fighter. I’ve seen a lot of his fights and we’ve fought on the same card before. You have to respect that he is a former world champion.

I have to draw from all the experiences I’ve had in my career. I have to use my experience and be on top of my game.

Most of my fights have been around super middleweight. I don’t have to struggle to make weight as much and I couldn’t turn down this opportunity.

JONATHAN GUZMAN

Rosas is a typical Mexican fighter who will come forward and be in great condition. I’m ready for him and I feel I know him well.

I want a world title and we’re happy that if we get this win we can compete for a belt next time out.

We are excited to put on a great show Vendredi nuit. I will break him in half.

DANIEL ROSAS

We know our opponent is very good, but we trained 100 percent to get the victory.

We’ve been waiting and putting in the work. Si le coup de grâce vient, ça arrive.

I know this is an elimination bout. We came to win and we’re prepared for anything that comes. I’m ready to be a world champion.
