R. Flores
I completely agree with the sentiments of John. We mentioned as well, Premier Boxing Champions is about putting boxing back on free TV. And these fights that we have on January 23 and January 19 are sure to capture the imagination of the public.
Tudo certo, let’s get back to business in regards to one of our main event fighters. As I mentioned, wins over Amir Khan, Lucas Matthysse, Zab Judah, Lamont Peterson and Erik Morales. Lutando fora de Filadélfia, Pennsylvania with an exciting style, and man-oh-man, he has vowed to put on a terrific 2016.
Ladies and Gentlemen, please welcome the former world champion. He is joined alongside by his father, Angel Garcia. Here is Danny “Rápido” Garcia.
Danny Garcia
Thank you guys for having me on, Eu agradeço. I want to say good afternoon everybody and thank you for having me on this conference call.
I’m very excited to be showcasing my skills January 23 at STAPLES Center live on FOX. I think it’s a great opportunity for the fighters to showcase their skills in a new audience. I want to thank FOX and I want to thank all my fans all around the world for making this happen.
Team Danny Garcia is training hard and we’re focused, we’re mentally prepared and we’re ready for January 23 and we can’t wait.
Q
Danny can you talk about training camp and balancing that with the holiday season?
D. Garcia
I’ve done this before. I’ve trained on the holidays before throughout my career. It’s nothing new.
Once I got the fight date in my head, it’s kind of like there are no holidays for me. So it wasn’t hard for me to stay focused. I trained just like any training camp. And me and my dad, we train hard every day. “The holiday is no holidayis kind of a saying to us.
Q
What are the goals for you this year? And what do you think this fight can do for your future at 147?
D. Garcia
I think it’s a great fight, I think it’s a great fight for the fans. Two fighters who like to fight. So I think this is going to be an interesting fight and a great matchup.
This is just another fight to prepare myself for a fight for a world title. So I’m ready right now. Every fight in my career that’s going on now is going to be a big fight for me.
Q
12 months from now, where do you see yourself?
D. Garcia
I want to remain undefeated and hopefully be a champion if the opportunity comes up. We’re just taking it one fight at a time for right now and that’s how I did my whole career and that’s how I’m going to keep doing it
Q
When you’re in a fight, does that ever come across your mind when taking a risk or being a little more aggressive? Does that like weigh on you like don’t be too aggressive to risk something like that?
D. Garcia
Não, not at all. I’m a fighter who takes risks all the time. I want to entertain the crowd. I have the ability to play it safe if I want too, but it depends on how I feel that day. But everybody knows that Danny Garcia likes to take risks.
When I’m in a fight, I’m just playing round by round; I’m not really worrying about a record or things like that.
Q
How does your body feel with moving up in the weight? You saw the power in your last fight. Do you feel like there’s anything different going from 140 para 147?
D. Garcia
Para ser honesto com você, I feel a lot better. I’m happier now. When I fought at 140, I was always mean while trying to cut weight. I was never in a good mood. I think that’s why a lot of times I would go in there and just fight.
But now I’m able to think more; I’m able to be a lot smarter. My punches are crispier and my stamina is better. I’m able to run more, run more miles, train harder; more endurance. So I may have had the energy at 140 and do that, so at 147 so I just feel a lot stronger and I have more stamina.
Q
Do you see yourself being more active?
D. Garcia
Sim, I would love to stay active; I would love to stay active. Mas, você sabe, that my team’s job., I’m a fighter so whatever my team wants, I’ll do. So if they want me to fight two times or three times or four times, then that’s what I’m going to do.
But as for now we’re focused on January 23.
Q
With PBC giving you a lot of exposure, are you focused on just winning the fight or putting on a show with this national space so people can know outside of boxing who Danny Garcia is?
D. Garcia
It’s a Danny Garcia show. I’m always looking to put on a great show, and to go out there and give the fans an exciting fight because at the end of the day, I’ve got to give the fans their money’s worth.
So I’m going there and giving the fans their money’s worth in a great fashion and a smart explosive fashion.
Q
What kind of challenge does Robert present?
D. Garcia
Estou ansioso para – I know he’s going to come ready, but we’re ready. I’m looking forward to a challenge. I’ve prepared myself for a challenge every day, day-in and day-out. So I expect nothing but a great fight and a great performance by me.
Q
What are your goals at 147?
D. Garcia
We’re taking it one step at a time. The goal is to become a world champion againmy second division of being a world champion. So we definitely want to be a world champion again. And when the opportunity arrives, we’ll take advantage of it.
Q
Can you talk of what the difference is in approaching a fight as the underdog with nothing to lose compared to the undefeated favorite with a lot to lose?
D. Garcia
I always approach my mind with the same mindset and it’s just a winner’s mindset. I’m not really too concerned about being the underdog or the promoted fighter or favorite.
I always approach my fight mentally that I’m going to win. I never feed into the politics of the sport or who people think is going to win or going to lose. I prepare myself to be the best Danny Garcia at every fight, and that’s what I prepared myself to do for this fight.
Q
I know you’ve gone on record saying that you didn’t it to be a Puerto Rico-Mexico kind of fight. But here in LA, it becomes that. We just went through that with Cotto and Canelo.
D. Garcia
Isto é o que é. Whatever the fans want to take it as or whatever the promoters want to do with it, it is what it is. I have a lot of fans and I have a lot of friends out there in Los Angeles, Califórnia.
I feel like I represent everyone; Americans and things like that and a lot of Mexican-Americans. I’m an American-Puerto Rican.
So I feel like if you’re born in American and you’re Latino, I think it’s all the same. So that’s how I’m feeling and that’s why I just feel like I represent all the Latinos.
Q
Is there a different feel when you fight in LA, when you go down to STAPLES Center?
D. Garcia
It’s a great feeling; it’s a great atmosphere. I fought there once before with Kendall Holt. I was the undercard.
LA is where stars are born. So I’m looking forward to going out there and having a star performance.
Q
What do you feel your advantages are over Guerrero going into this fight?
D. Garcia
I just feel like I’m the better fighter. I’m one of the best fighters in the world., I got to go in there and be the best Danny Garcia and have a great performance.
Q
Have you seen where and learned anything from watching any of Guerrero’s past fights?
D. Garcia
I definitely watch the fights because at the end of the day, você sabe, I’m a boxing fan too and I just like to watch boxing.
I watch those fights and I see the things he likes to do and the things he doesn’t like. I’m just preparing myself for anything.
Q
Do you feel you have to make a statement?
D. Garcia
I’ve just got to go in there and get the job done like I always do. I’m not really worried about what’s next on the agenda or anything like that. Our main focus is to get the job done and that’s what we’re preparing ourselves for. Then we can talk about future opponents after the fight.
Q
Do you want to make any predictions for this fight?
D. Garcia
I’d like to say Danny Garcia wins by TKO. Round five.
Q
Did you think that Robert came back a little bit too soon for that Martinez fight and that perhaps is why he looked bad?
D. Garcia
I’m not really too sure. He might have underestimated the guy and not realized it was going to be that tough of a fight., I’m expecting a great Robert Guerrero and I’m focused on Robert Guerrero. I’m focused, Estou treinando forte. So I’m prepared for whatever I’ve got to do to get this victory.
Q
Kenny Porter has said he had called you out and you ducked the fight with Shawn Porter. Would you care to address that at all?
D. Garcia
I’ve never ducked anybody in the sport. This is actually my second fight at 147. So it wouldn’t even make sense to duck anybody.
I addressed the situation before when he called me out and I had my comments and he had his comments, and it was what it was. Danny Garcia doesn’t duck anybody.
Q
If the opportunity does present itself and even though the report states that it did, but if the opportunity does present itself, it’s something that you would be interested in, a fight with Shawn Porter?
D. Garcia
Sim, sem dúvida. I want to be a champion. If he’s a champion or there’s a belt up for grabs, then we’ve got to make it happen.
But as of now, I’m focused on Robert Guerrero and he is the task ahead. Can’t let nothing sidetrack me; I’ve got tunnel vision. Eu estou pronto para esta luta.
R. Flores
Angel, could you just give us some thoughts on training camp before we switch over?
Angel Garcia
Well yes. The time has been great, there’s no injuries. Danny is looking good. He’s got great sparring partners, as a matter of fact we spar in a few minutes a day. He’s looking great. Janeiro 23 the world will see again, as Danny said, the Danny Garcia Show. It’s not the circus coming to town, Danny Garcia Show is coming to town.
So California LA, get ready because we coming like a tornado. Right now they’ve got a storm out there, all this rain and all that. You know who’s causing that? estamos.
So January 23, fans get ready baby. STAPLES Center on January 23. Love you guys.
R. Flores
Danny back to you for closing comments and then Robert Guerrero.
D. Garcia
I’m very excited for this upcoming fight January 23rd. Like my dad said, we’ve put a lot of work in the gym. It’s been a long, hard camp preparing ourselves for any situation. I can’t wait to go out there, show my DSG west fans a great fight.
R. Flores
Danny, muito obrigado. We really appreciate it. We look forward to fight week with Danny Garcia and his father, Angel Garcia. As mentioned, fight week kicks off in Los Angeles on Tuesday, January 19th, Club Nokia, PBC em FS1, Javier Molina and Jamal James.
We are excited and couldn’t pick a better place than STAPLES Center in Los Angeles. Thank you to all the fans in Southern California for supporting PBC and the entire staff at STAPLES Center as well.
Let’s bring up a man who is representing the Bay Area, fighting out of Gilroy, Califórnia. He has won a world championship in multiple different weight divisions. Any time he steps inside the ring, it’s always electric, it’s always a show. He puts forth everything that he has and that much more. With victories over Andre Berto, Selcuk Aydin and Aaron Martinez, anybody that’s been put in front of him he’s fought and he has given everything. Not only is he a former world champion, but his wife is a world champion in her own right, having defeated cancer and she’s been cancer free for quite some time now.
Ladies and gentlemen, he’s joined alongside by his father and his trainer Ruben Guerrero, it gives me a great honor and pleasure to introduce the former world champion who is without question excited and thrilled to have the opportunity to fight Danny Garcia on FOX on January 23, ladies and gentlemen here is Robert Guerrero.
Robert Guerrero
Hello everybody, how are you guys doing? I’m excited to be here and ready for your questions, so shoot away.
R. Flores
Robert, before we have open it up for questions I want to touch base with you. We heard some of the media during the conference call asking and pretty much saying that you’re the underdog. How do you react to the fact that Danny is the favorite in this fight?
R. Guerreiro
That don’t bother me at all. My whole life I’ve been an underdog, since I was a kid. My family was always an underdog, having to work out of a field and come up strong and get to what where we got. It’s just a way of life for us. A lot of us Latinos out there, that’s the way it is. We come from poverty and work our way to the top. We’ve always been with our back against the wall and always been an underdog. We never look at that being a favorite, we just come and get the job done.
Q
Could you talk about a little bit how being a boxer has shaped your faith?
R. Guerreiro
It’s just that fight and that struggle, getting through everything day in, day out. That hard work. When you go back and you look in the Bible, God says to put out as much as he put into you. That’s what I do every day I’m in the gym. This is a sport where anything can happen. One punch could change your whole life. It brings you closer to God. Everything else I’ve been through, you put God first all the time and that’s how we live.
Just being in the ring and knowing what’s God done for me and my career and my family and how far he’s taken us by having that faith in him, é incrível. It’s incredible. STAPLES Center Los Angeles main event on FOX against an undefeated fighter like Danny Garcia, it truly is a blessing from God to be able to be in the position that I’m in and the circumstances that I’ve had to face to be in this position also. The only way you can overcome everything is by having faith in God.
Q
Could you talk a little bit about the positive and negatives sides of being kind of a public religious figure?
R. Guerreiro
There’s always a positive to everything, no matter what the negative is. You get the people out there who test your faith and who judge you and try to tear you down. Mas, when you’re a believer in Christ, you put him first. Nothing else matters to you. You work hard and you do what you got to do and you let your actions speak for you and what God’s blessed you with.
That’s one of the things that we’ve always done. And I try to not overstep our boundaries and try not to be out there forcing the Lord’s word down people’s throat. You let it come and you let people see how much you’ve prospered and how good God is in your life.
Q
Do you think that you did come back to soon after the Keith Thurman fight to fight Aron?
R. Guerreiro
Eu não tenho desculpas. E, you know what? I came back; it was three months after the fight. I think somewhere around there; it was back in camp. Aron Martinez is a tough guy. Everybody saw his last fight and what he did. He came out rough and tough and did his job.
I think I have no excuses. I went out there and got the job done, he gave me a tough fight, and I’m not going to take anything away from Aron Martinez because he trained his butt off and came and did what he did and got the job done. So I have no excuses for that fight. You just got to get back on top of it and work hard.
Q
How did your body feel heading into that fight and coming out of the fight?
R. Guerreiro
I felt a little drained and worn out. Not so much of the fighting, but I had other situations going on in my life at home and emotional stuff. It all adds up. But like I said, there’s no excuse. Aron Martinez came to fight and that’s what he did. I sucked it up and bent down and showed that true grit and got through the fight and pulled a victory off.
Q
What are your thoughts on Danny?
R. Guerreiro
He’s been in some close fights. That’s the decision of the judges; that’s their job to do that. Mas, you’re just as good as your last fight. That’s what you look at. He came in and got the job done and stopped him. He cracked the wall through a division. Now it’s time to step in with me and that’s what we’re focusing on. We put a great game plan together and we’re excited to get out there and execute it.
Q
When you see that as a fighter that you’re fighting a guy who’s younger, he’s undefeated, does that give you a little more edge and if you do beat him does it make it that much sweeter for you?
R. Guerreiro
Ó, most definitely it makes it sweet to give somebody their first loss. It’s shows what a true champion is to see what they do after they lose and their adversity and their back against the wall. I’m excited to be getting in there with an undefeated Danny Garcia because I get that shot like everybody else gets that shot, to crack that zero and put a one there. It’s exciting.
Q
How important is your record finishing out?
R. Guerreiro
It’s about trying to make yourself a better fighter. To come back strong and finish out your career with a strong output. It’s about becoming a world champion again and also attracting that Hall of Fame.
Q
I want to ask you about the wholeDanny didn’t want to make it a big deal about its Puerto Rico versus Mexicobut you know the fans always get so involved in it. You’re on the West Coast here, you know what it’s like, direito?
R. Guerreiro
Ó, most definitely. Whether you like it or not it’s a rivalry and it’s been a rivalry in boxing and soccer and you name it for years. That’s what it comes down to, that’s what makes our two cultures so competitive at boxing. It’s because of that rivalry. Mexicans want to be better than Puerto Ricans in the game. In my honest opinion I think Mexicans are better in the game. It’s time to come out and show what I still got left and what I can do.
Q
Nowhere better to do than STAPLES Center right here in LA, direito?
R. Guerreiro
Ó, most definitely. Where most of my Mexican fans are, all those Latinos out there, all thoseI like to call them Chicanos out therebecause that’s what we are.
Q
What advantages do you see you have over him?
R. Guerreiro
There’s always that southpaw stance, being a volume puncher, a guy that throws a lot of punches. Plus being at 147 a little bit longer than him it’s all an advantage. The key is using those advantages and capitalizing on them and taking advantage of them. We got to go out there and execute the game plan and make it happen.
Q
You fought some of the top guys in the world at welterweight; Mayweather, Keith Thurman, Andre Berto and all of that. What have you learned from those fights that you could use against Danny Garcia?
R. Guerreiro
You got to get better sparring. For the last couple of fights I’ve just been fighting with guys that are not even pushing me in the gym and getting me 100% pronto. Guys that I can do what I want to do with in the ring. It just doesn’t cut it. It just doesn’t cut it.
That’s one of the biggest things that I’ve noticed in my training camp, is not having that solid sparring that’s going to take you to that limit and make you better, sharper, Mais rápido. Keep your eyes sharp, and be ready to make those exchanges where you do something wrong they’re going to make you pay no where you’re going to do something wrong and the guy’s going to shell up and just try to survive in the ring. You need those guys that are going to push you and make you better.
Q
Does the time in between fights give you time to heal up and get sharper better?
R. Guerreiro
Not so much heal up. I always take good care of my body and I come out of these fights not really damaged too much. Quero dizer, I do a lot of damage in the ring to guys and don’t take a lot of it. It’s a matter of me sitting back and analyzing everything that’s gone on in my training camps and my career and what I need to do, what adjustments I need to make in the gym to get back to where I need to be. I think we made those adjustments and I’m excited to get back out there and make it happen.
Q
Do you want to make a prediction for this fight?
R. Guerreiro
Previsão; I’ll come in to fight. Eu estou chegando para lutar. Only God knows what’s going to happen and all I can say is I’m coming to win and put out my best performance I can put out and make it happen and become a champion in the welterweight division again.
Q
When we had Danny on the line, Danny made a prediction. I don’t know what your thoughts on his. He said he’s going to TKO you in the fifth round.
R. Guerreiro
All I got to say is if that’s his prediction, come to do it. Because I’m coming to fight. I’m always up for that challenge and I love it because I know he’s coming to fight, muito. If he’s coming to KO me in the fifth round, that means he’s coming to fight.
Q
Where do you see this putting you back in the rankings and how important is this fight to beat the undefeated with a lot of hype behind him in Danny Garcia?
R. Guerreiro
This throws me right back in. There’s lot of hype behind Danny Garcia coming at 147 libras. There’s a lot of big talk that he’s the next star in boxing that’s going to take over. Like he says himself, stars come to Hollywood. He’s a big star in the sport and I’m not going to say he’s not because he’s been doing what he’s had to do. Ele está invicto; he’s taken out a lot of top guys. His resume is great.
I think this is a tremendous fight for me to get back on top and to get back in the ranks. To show the doubters and the media and everybody out there that Guerrero got a lot left in him. Eu estive 100% prepared for this fight fight. We got that out of the way and it’s time to take care of business on the 23 and I’m excited about it.
Q
Do you think Danny is adding in the factor that he’s not going to be the bigger guy this time?
R. Guerreiro
I think he’s going to be a lot bigger than people expect. Estar em 140 for the amount of time he was and coming up to 147 libras, he’s feeling great. He’s feeling strong, he’s feeling bigger. He just walked through Paulie Malignaggi and I know he’s expecting to walk through me. So he predicted the fifth round, a knockout. So he’s feeling great about himself. That just excites me, because I know he’s coming at his best and he’s feeling his strongest and he’s coming to fight. It’s exciting to know how he’s coming to fight.
R. Flores
Robert as we get ready to conclude the conference call, we really appreciate the time and looking forward to seeing you on fight week in Los Angeles. Did you have any closing comments for the media?
R. Guerreiro
I’m just excited to be back in the ring. It’s great to be in such a big event, especially here at home in California, no STAPLES Center, in the heart of Los Angeles. I’m excited about that. Also with this great undercard with Aron Martinez who’s a local Los Angeles fighter also who’s coming up strong. It’s going to be an exciting card and I’m excited.
Everybody says that they had the best training camp ever that they’ve had in I don’t know how long. I’m just going to tell you I had a great training camp. Estou animado com essa luta; Estou em grande forma, feeling good. Eu não posso esperar; I had great sparring. I can’t wait to get into that fight and show the world Guerrero’s still here. I got a little bit derailed and now I’m back on those tracks and it’s time to go full steam ahead.

Herrera has won his last two fights and is coming off of a knockout of Isaias Cabrera.
Profissional desde 2010, the 28-year-old Kim dropped his debut but has reeled off 13 wins since then. After fighting in his native South Korea and China for the first several years of his career, Kim knocked out Lizandro De Los Santos in Mexico in March before stopping Luis Alberto Pelayo in his U.S. debut in July.

Aqui está o que os lutadores tinham a dizer sobre suas performances esta noite:
Devon Alexander
“Eu queria ser inteligente e agressivo lá hoje à noite, e é isso que eu fiz.
“Ele estava vindo em rápido como nós sabia que ele faria. Nós sabíamos que ele estava indo para vir para a frente. Eu simplesmente não conseguia meus tiros fora como eu queria.
“Derrotas consecutivas são difíceis, mas eu não estou facilmente desencorajado. Eu só preciso reagrupar e depois vamos ver o que está próximo. Eu ainda sou considerado um dos melhores.”
ARON MARTINEZ
“Eu sou o cara mais pesado. Eu sempre lutou em 147 lbs. Este é o meu peso natural e eu brigaram contra caras muito maiores durante as últimas semanas de acampamento de treinamento. Eu estava enfrentando rápido 180 LBS combatentes no campo para se preparar para esta.
“Seguimos o nosso plano de jogo hoje à noite. eu dou (Alexander) adereços para ficar lá comigo.
“Lutando em um cartão de PBC na ESPN é o melhor tipo de oportunidade para mim. Vou usar essa luta para obter um outro grande chance como eu tenho hoje à noite.
“Eu vou lutar com quem eles colocarem na minha frente. Eu sou sempre o underdog, mas eu abraçá-lo porque essa mentalidade tem empurrado me a trabalhar mais.”
LEE SELBY
“Meu jab, alcançar e velocidade eram meus maiores vantagens hoje à noite. Foi assim que conseguiu a vitória.
“Todos os cortes que tive em minha carreira vieram contra lutadores mais curtos como (Montiel). Quando fui cortar esta noite na 6ª eliminatória foi a mesma coisa. Eu peguei uma cabeçada.
“I foi sinceramente decepcionado com meu desempenho hoje à noite. Eu consegui a vitória e foi um grande sentimento para começar minha primeira em US. solo. Mas os fãs não me ver no meu melhor, e uma grande parte do que foi a experiência de Montiel. Ele é um grande lutador.”
Fernando Montiel
“Eu pensei que era luta muito mais perto do que os juízes tinham-lo no scorecard.
“Passei as primeiras rodadas esperando por ele para vir para mim para que eu pudesse contra-ataque. Mas ele não estava me engajar para que eu tornou-se o agressor e trouxe a luta para ele.
“Foi uma honra lutar neste cartão PBC aqui no Arizona. Eu honestamente acho que mereço uma revanche. Eu quero lutar com ele novamente.”

PREMIER BOXE CHAMPIONS na ESPN CITAÇÕES mídia treino antes da Devon Alexander VS. ARON MARTINEZ AT Gila River Arena, em Glendale, AZ em outubro 14

Cobertura na ESPN começa em 9 p.m. E/6 p.m. MT / PT
GLENDALE, THE. (Outubro 12, 2015) – Lutadores televisionados no Premier Boxe dos Campeões (PBC) em ESPN cartão da luta ocorrendo nesta quarta-feira em Glendale, AZ tirou um tempo de suas agendas lotadas para sediar um treino de mídia na Central Street Boxing Gym.

Cobertura televisionada está prevista para começar em 9 p.m. E/6 p.m. MT / PT com o U.S. estréia do campeão mundial dos penas Lee Selby (21-1, 8 KOs) quando ele assume o ex-campeão mundial três divisõesFernando “Cochulito” Montiel (54-4-2, 39 KOs).
Aqui está o que os lutadores tinham a dizer em antecipação de suas lutas:
Devon Alexander
“Este campo tem sido tudo sobre a obtenção de coisas certas. Eu tinha que ter certeza a minha mentalidade era direito. Perder não é mais uma opção. Na minha derrota para Amir (Cã), não era nada que ele necessariamente fez para me fazer perder. Todas as perdas que tive Eu acho que eu poderia ter apenas como facilmente venceu essas lutas. Este é um jogo mental, e eu não estava lá mentalmente para essas lutas.
“Eu tinha de se livrar das distrações ao redor do acampamento que estavam me impedindo de se concentrando totalmente na tarefa na mão e como o boxe é importante para mim. Eu tinha de se concentrar e, em seguida, re-foco sobre o quanto isso significa para mim. Todo mundo precisa de reprogramar-se de vez em quando para ajudar a lembrar o que é importante.
“Eu sei Aron Martinez vai vir para lutar. Ele sabe o meu recorde e que eu tenho batido alguns dos melhores. Então, ele sabe que vai ser difícil para ele, e tenho certeza que ele vai trazer o seu melhor para o ringue com ele, mas não vai ser o suficiente. Quando eu estou focado como este ninguém pode me bater.”
ARON MARTINEZ
“Meu estilo é lutar e espero que ele se levanta e intercâmbios comigo, mas se ele não temos um bom plano de jogo para caixa-lo. Sabemos que ele é um lutador de boxe, então eu tenho certeza que é o que vamos ver.
“Eu tenho que cuidar de Alexander. Eu quero dar uma boa luta e, em seguida, ir para lutas maiores. Estou aqui para lutar contra quem eles colocarem na minha frente. Eu estou pronto para lutar contra qualquer um.
“Eu não conheço uma única pessoa que não acho que eu ganhei a luta Robert Guerrero, mas isso é passado. Acredito que eu vencê-lo, mas é boxe e eu estou pronto para lutar uma maneira diferente de lutador tipo.
“Era bom para derrubar Guerrero, porque todo mundo subestima o meu poder. Eu lutei um monte de caras fortes e eles me senti meus socos. Nós treinamos para caixa ou comerciais golpes.”
LEE SELBY
“Estou realmente animado. Esta é a minha primeira defesa do título mundial e é contra um duro desafio que a maioria dos caras não aceitaria. Não é uma vitória fácil, especialmente comigo ter que vir no exterior.
“Eu escolhi um adversário formidável e se eu vencer um cara como ele e com bom aspecto, ele deve levantar meu perfil durante a noite.
“Eu realmente não estudar os lutadores, Eu só gostaria de saber um pouco sobre o seu estilo. Montiel pode fazer as duas coisas, he doesn’t have a typical style. I like to keep it simple because you don’t want to prepare for one thing and then have your opponent come out doing something different.
“Montiel é um perfurador grande, mas eu estive com muitos bons perfuradores. Eu tenho batido vários caras invictos e eu tenho muita experiência para a minha tenra idade.
“Estou acostumado a vir aqui para campos de treinamento e, tanto quanto não ter a vantagem em casa multidão, Ganhei títulos em multidões hostis antes por isso não será um problema.
“Eu acho que eu estou lá com o melhor na divisão. Eu quero lutar com os caras top e eu acho que se eu conseguir uma grande vitória e de boa aparência aqui, Eu vou estar na mistura.
“Com estas lutas estar em T.V. livre, mais as pessoas chegam a mim e meu perfil ver vai mudar rapidamente, enquanto eu faço o que eu sou capaz.”
Fernando Montiel
“Eu sinceramente acredito que (Selby) escolheu o cara errado para lutar. Eu tive uma grande preparação para essa luta. Todo o trabalho tem sido posto em. Ele apenas escolheu o cara errado para fazer sua estréia nos EUA contra.
“Fiquei muito feliz quando soube que estávamos indo para lutar no Arizona. Existem muitos mexicanos aqui, então eu sei que vou ter um monte de gente atrás de mim na quarta-feira. Vai ser ótimo para lutar aqui.
“Eu certamente não me sinto como idade tem nada a ver com essa luta. Olhe para mim. Eu estou pronto para ir.”

Carson, Califa. (Junho 6) – Southern California boxing fans were treated to an afternoon of hard punches and quick action as Premier Boxing Champions (PBC) on NBC took to the ring at StubHub Center in Carson, Califa. The Saturday afternoon fight card, part of a jam-packed day of sports action on NBC, showcased a heavyweight brawl between Dominic Breazeale and Yasmany Consuegra and a fast and furious welterweight bout between Robert Guerrero and Aron Martinez.

 

In the PBC on NBC main event, Guerrero and Martinez let their fists fly from the opening bell to the closing bell in a showdown that saw over 1,000 punches thrown between the two welterweights over 10 rounds. It was clear from the beginning of the fight that Martinez was not intimidated by Guerrero’s skills or resume as he dominated the first several rounds, even dropping Guerrero in the fourth. But Guerrero was able to turn the table in his favor as the fight progressed and dominate the second half of the 10 round brawl. Os juízes marcou a luta 97-95 e 95-94 for Guerrero and 95-94 for Martinez in a split decision victory that brought the crowd to its feet.

 

Breazeale, um 2012 U.S. Olympian and Southern California-native, needed less than three rounds to defeat previously unbeaten heavyweight Conguegra. The referee called off the fight at 1:49 of the third round after Consuegra hit the canvas three times as Breazeale extended his professional record to 15-0 com 14 KOs.

 

The featured fight on NBC SportsNet saw a featherweight battle between the once-beaten Argentinean Jesus Cuellar and former world champion Vic Darchinyan that came to a half when Cuellar knocked out Darchinyan at 1:04 of the seventh round.

 

NBCSN also featured the return of Alfredo Angulo, who scored a fifth-round knockout victory over Delray Raines in a middleweight contest that saw “Cão” raise his hand in victory for the first time since 2012.

 

Here is what the fighters had to say about Saturday afternoon’s fights:

 

Robert Guerrero

 

Aron Martinez came to fight and the fans got to see two warriors go at it.

I can’t explain why I go to war so much. I just love to get in there and mix it up.

When I got up off the canvas, I told myselfget up and win this fight.

Once I started boxing I felt I started dominating the fight.

We got the victory and now it’s time to move on to some big fights and give the fans the warrior type fights they deserve. I’m an action fighter and I’ll continue to be so.

 

There is something about this arena that makes you want to stand there and trade.

 

I just suffered the loss of my cousin. She passed away last week and this fight was for her.

 

 

ARON MARTINEZ

 

“Estou muito feliz com meu desempenho. Eu pensei que ganhei a luta.

 

I thought the third scorecard was way out of line.

 

It was a great experience fighting on NBC. I wanted to put on a great fight for the fans and me and Robert did that.

 

I look forward to being more active and fighting again as soon as possible.

 

DOMINIC Breazeale

 

Its always a little different to fight in the afternoon. The fans came out to support me. I put on a big show and got the win.

 

He was putting his hand on his right side and I was hitting him with the upper cut.

 

“Eu não podia pedir nada melhor.

 

I’d love to be back in the ring as soon as possible. Everybody did a great job putting this together. This was only three rounds right here and lets do it again in a couple months.

 

JESUS ​​CUELLAR

 

I wasn’t hurt. It was more of a slip. Darchinyan is a very tough warrior and I’m glad I came out on top.

 

I want to fight again as soon as possible. I saw Abner Mares sitting in the first row and I want to fight him next.

 

Alfredo Angulo

 

I have so many fans and I want to thank them. They are here cheering for mecheering for the dog. I always say it’s for the fans and I want to thank them for the support.

 

This is my first fight coming back to my old trainer [Clemente Medina] and it was great.

 

A lot of people say ‘the dog is dead,’ but if you ask the people that saw my performance, they will all tell you the dog is alive and well.

It’s a unique event starting so early. I’ll get up, eat and go fight but I’m ready for it.

 

I want to fight often, inactivity is the worst thing for a fighter. I want to fight three-four times per year, every year.

 

I never take another fighter lightly. This is a huge opportunity for Aron Martinez and I’m sure he’ll be ready for a real fight.

 

Fighting on NBC puts all the eyes on me. I know how big of a platform this is.

 

StubHub Center is a terrific venue, fans are right on top of you. I love fighting there and I’m not going to leave the fans disappointed.

 

ARON MARTINEZ

 

“Tal Como Sábado, expect a great fight. Vai ser uma guerra. I want to go in there and show everybody who I am.

 

I know how tough of a fighter Robert is, he’s fought at the top level for a long time.

 

I’m a brawler and I’m ready to test whatever skills he has. I need to close the distance, stay on top of him and get to him early. My power will surprise him.

 

I love StubHub Center. I’ve been there many times to watch fights and can’t wait to fight there myself.

 

“Esta é uma grande oportunidade para mim, fighting on such a big card. We know Robert is a former world champion but I’m focused and ready. I’ve trained extra hard for this fight.

 

DOMINIC Breazeale

 

Everything starts off the jab, I need to put pressure on him early. I’ve seen a couple of YouTube clips of him fighting but the key is to focus on what I do best.

 

This is a huge opportunity for me to fight on NBC at StubHub Center and I plan to take full advantage of it.

 

This camp has been great, my whole team has done a phenomenal job getting me ready for this fight.

 

I have to thank my opponent for coming out and putting his record on the line. When I’m done with him, he’ll be 17-1. I’m looking for an early round knockout and I want to keep the fans on the edge of their seats.

 

YASMANY CONSUEGRA

 

I’m very prepared for this fight. I’m thankful to Dominic for taking this fight and I can’t wait to put on a show neste sábado tarde.

 

I feel strong and ready for this challenge. My team has done everything they need to help me come out victorious.

 

I was part of the national team in Cuba which is very difficult to do. I’m not worried about any hype leading into this fight.

 

JESUS ​​CUELLAR

 

First Darchinyan, Then Leo Santa Cruz or Abner Mares, those are the fighters

I’m targeting.

 

He can talk as much as he wants but we’re going to fight and find out who is better no sábado.

 

I’m very prepared and ready to represent Argentina. I trained hard and I’m ready to get in the ring. I’ve put in the hard work and I’m going to step inside the ring and showcase my talent for all of Argentina.

 

VIC DARCHINYAN

 

I will demolish this kid no sábado, I have much more experience.

 

He has no idea what’s going to happen.

 

I was a champion for many years and want to win another title. I will show everyone that I’m still capable no sábado.

 

We’re going to see great fights and great action no sábado. I’m ready to go and I hope everyone enjoys the fights.

 

Alfredo Angulo

 

I’m so happy to be here in Los Angeles and fighting so close to home. 'O cachorro’ is coming back and you’ll see that no sábado.

 

“Estou muito animado por estar de volta no ringue. It’s been a bit of a layoff but I want to be as active and busy as possible.

 

I’m back now with Clemente Medina. I work best with him and I’m happy to be back training in Los Angeles again.

 

I recently got married. I’m much more settled and much more focused on my career. I look forward to becoming a champion again.

 

MOLINA OSCAR

 

My left shoulder is completely healed, the recovery took a while which was frustrating but now all systems are go.

 

I’ve prepared well for this fight and I’m excited to go out and perform. It’s an honor for me to be on the same card as all these great fighters. I’m going to give a great show no sábado.

 

I don’t know much about my opponent but I’ve been very busy in the gym learning everyday and I look forward to setting the pace and fighting my fight no sábado.

 

I’ve been going to fights at StubHub Center for years and it’s great to be fighting there for the first time.

Bem, thank you and thank you very much to the media for joining us on this call. TGB Promotions is very happy working again with PBC on this excellent card to be telecast on NBC neste sábado afternoon from the famed StubHub Center in Carson. The doors openno sábado em 11:00 a.m. com o primeiro sino às 11:15 a.m. We go on live TV starting at12:00 p.m. PT. It’s a huge sports day for NBC. They’re also telecasting the French Open, the Belmont Stakes, and game two of the Stanley Cup Playoffs.

 

The main event is former world champion, Robert Guerrero (32-3-1 18 KOs) fora de Gilroy, Califórnia. Robert’s no stranger to the southern California boxing fans, having posted two huge wins in recent years: the sensational 12-round decision over Andre Berto in November 2012 down in Ontario, and his epic fight-of-the-year win over Yoshihiro Kamegai on June 21, 2014 at the StubHub Center.

 

Aaron Martinez, West Covina, Califórnia tem um registro de (19-3-1, 4 KOs). He made his bones on the southern California boxing circuit, and knows how valuable this opportunity to face Guerrero is on such a big platform. Martinez never takes a backward step, never tires, and that’s his primary weapon: incredible stamina. With the styles of Guerrero-Martinez, this main event has all the makings of another action-packed StubHub Center war to add to the venue’s history.

 

In the televised co-main, the opening fight, we’ve got two outstanding, undefeated young heavyweight prospects: U.S. Olympian Dominic Breazeale (14-0, 13 KOs). Ele competiu no 2012 London games, and Yasmany Consuegra (17-0, 14 KOs) outstanding Cuban amateur with a perfect pro record.

 

Novamente, as portas se abrirão em 11:00 a.m. Os ingressos começam em $25 and we’re looking forward to seeing the great boxing fans of southern California attend this great event.

 

L. Milner

We’re going to do the heavyweights now. Dominic, could you make an opening statement before we turn it over to the media?

Dominic Breazeale

This is Dominic Breazeale. Good afternoon, senhoras e senhores. I’m excited to be part of this fantastic card this Saturday, Junho 6th. Can’t wait to get in the ring and show off my skills.

 

L. Milner

Grande. Obrigado. And Luis DeCubas Jr. is on the line to translate for Yasmany. Luis, could you ask him to make just a quick opening statement and then translate that for us?

 

Consuegra Yasmany

I want to thank everybody on the call. I want to thank NBC, the PBC, Al Haymon for this opportunity and all the people involved. I look forward to a great fight. No Sábado, I want to show everyone who I am.

Q

Ei, Dominic, it seems to me it’s safe to say that this is going to be your toughest opponent to date. Would you agree with that, and if so, how excited are you to get this opportunity to move up in competition and show what you’ve been able to learn?

 

D. Breazeale

Definitely toughest competition to date thus far. Definitivamente, Yasmany is 17-0, 14 KOs. One of those guys that steps in the ring with a ton of confidence. We’re both undefeated fighters and I was extremely excited when I got the call. Thanks to Al and the team. Thanks to NBC, we’ll be able to perform in front of the whole world, nationwide, and I couldn’t ask for more. It’s a great setting, a great way to have a stepping-stone to the next level. I want to be considered the top heavyweight and I guess you’ve got to fight top guys to get there.

 

Q

What do you know about Consuegra?

 

D. Breazeale

I know he’s got a great amateur record. I know he did real well in Cuba, the Cuba National team. He had some great fights here in the States. He fought a lot in Florida.I know he’s got a boxing style. I know he’s going to come out tough. Cuban fighters always do.

 

Q

Dominic, you’ve had a lot of knockouts in your early career in the pros, but this is going to be your biggest fight yet with another undefeated fighter. Can you talk about your transition from the amateur style, which obviously you had to do in the Olympics, to the professional style?

 

D. Breazeale:

Like you said, it’s going to be a big fight with a guy that’s undefeated. I’m sure he’s coming in looking to knock me out. I’m coming in to knock him out, com certeza. Mas, amateur transition into the pros, I would say was a little bit easier for myself than it was for most amateurs. Os amadores, a lot of my wins came by way of knockouts, so I’ve been knocking guys out since day one.

 

It’s one of those things that I transitioned from putting punches in bunches to putting punches in bunches with power. I’m throwing a lot more punches now. I’m putting a lot more punches together with power. Every punch I throw has got devastating power. I not only punch with the right hand, but I can punch with the left. So long as I make contact, somebody’s going down for sure.

 

Q

Can you talk about the experience factor? You both fought a number of guys who have a lot of fights under their belt. Sua última luta, he defeated Taurus Sykes, who’s been around for a long time, a guy with a winning record. Tell us where you think you’re at. Because eventually, everybody wants to become a world champion, but what level do you think you’re at and how does that compare to Yasmany?

D. Breazeale

I think I’m right up there, se não, definitely above him. I’ve fought some very experienced guys and guys that have been former Olympians, também. Guys like Matt Galer, who have been in heavyweight ranks and considered top contenders at one point. Me and Matt put on a great fight.

 

My last fight with Victor Bisbal, that was March 7th deste ano. He’s a Puerto Rican Olympian. He came out with a great amateur background, very good professional background. When I finally beat him he had fought some experienced guys as well, so I definitely have the experience there. Not only as an amateur, but definitely as a pro, muito.

Q

And a similar question for Yasmany. Para mim, it looks like this is going to be your biggest fight as a pro. Where do you think you are as a professional at this point? Where do you think you rank overall in the professional ranks?

 

Y. Consuegra

It’s definitely my toughest fight. Breazeale’s a real good fighter out of the pros, but I’ve also had a great amateur background. Eu lutei contra o melhor dos melhores, obviamente. The Cuban heavyweight program is much more difficult than the American heavyweight program, and he was an Olympian, but I won a lot of world amateur tournaments. I look forward to just getting in the ring with Breazeale and showing what I’ve got, because I think I could beat Breazeale, and I think I’m ready for Breazeale. The top guys in the division, I’m going to show them.

 

Q

Yasmany, how influenced are you by some of the great Cuban fighters and heavyweights of the past year: Teofilo Stevenson, Felix Savon, e muitos outros? How much of a role have they played in influencing your style?

 

Y. Consuegra

Obviamente, Cuba has a great history of Cuban amateur heavyweights. I like to put my style more toward Savon, who is a power puncher, as looking for the knockout at all times. And Stevenson’s a great fighter, but he’s more of a boxer, so was Roberto Balado, but that’s definitely a great point.

Q

How does it feel to be fighting on NBC in front of such a big network audience, especially on a day when you’re going to be right in between French Open final and Stanley Cup game. Dominic, could you answer that first?

 

D. Breazeale

I am definitely excited. I’ve got to thank NBC for giving me the opportunity to fight on this card. It’s a wonderful date. Can’t ask for anything better: southern California, meio-dia. Sun’s going to be out. The weather is going to be great. Great venue at the StubHub Center there. It’s definitely exciting. Whenever I get a chance to perform in front of a hometown crowd, family and friends, and things like that, it brings out the best in me, so I’m definitely looking forward to it and, like I said, I’ve got to thank NBC, Al Haymon, Goossen Promotions for putting this all together. My team, all of you guys, I definitely, truly appreciate it.

 

Q

And Louis, could you ask Yasmany the same question?

 

Y. Consuegra

Sim, it’s definitely the biggest fight of my life, the biggest fight of my career. At this moment, I’d also like to thank Dominic Breazeale for taking this type of risk. Not too many guys are willing to take these risks to fight an undefeated heavyweight and fight the best. Assim, it’s a big day for both of us, and come Sábado, I’m going to show everybody that I’m one of the top guys in the division.

 

L. Milner

Ok, grande. Obrigado, ambos, so much. We will see you this week for a great event. We have the main event on the line now, so I’m going to turn it back over to Tom Brown to introduce Robert Guerrero and Aaron Martinez. Tom, tirá-lo.
T. Marrom

Ok, grande. Obrigado. Primeiro, I’d like to introduce former world champion, Robert “The Ghost” Guerreiro, novamente, com um recorde de 32-3-1 e 18 KOs, making a quick return to the PBC on NBC.

 

Robert Guerrero

I just want to thank everybody for being on and I’m ready to go.

 

T. Marrom

Ok, we’ve got Aron Martinez here also, com um recorde de 19-3-1, and he understands how valuable this opportunity is to face Guerrero on such a big platform.

Aron Martinez

Sim, claro, Estou aqui. É uma grande oportunidade para mim; I’m ready for battle. We’re at weight and everything went pretty good at this camp, and what can I say, um? Just excited to fight Sábado.

Q

Robert, you’re a guy that has fought a lot of big name fighters over a really nice career, an illustrious career. Does it become a little more difficult to get up for a fighter like Aron Martinez who is, kind of unknown, at least as compared to the other guys that you’ve fought?

 

R. Guerreiro

Não, not at all. Coming off the last fight with a loss at the short end of the stick, it drives you to be hungry. Assim, that’s why I wanted to get right back into the ring, stay active. That’s one of the biggest problems with being inactive and not having enough action throughout the year. The year layoffs, a nine-, eight-month layoff, it really kills you, especially at that championship elite level. It’s hard to come back and be 100 percent sharp, so the plan is to just stay sharp all year and get back on it.

 

Q

O que você sabe sobre ele? Do you watch any tapes of your opponents or anything like that?

 

R. Guerreiro

Sim, I’ve watched some tape on him. I watched a few of his fights that I found on YouTube and he’s a crafty little guy. He’s in there and he can fight on the inside. He’s got some good counter shots and he mixes it up. Assim, you’ve just got to be ready for everything all around, because you never know what’s going to come your way, especially when this is such a big opportunity for him, fighting on NBC. You know he’s going to come 100 percent ready and that seems to happen all the time when I fight somebody. They come 10 percent better than they were in their last couple of fights, so it’s about being prepared and being ready for whatever comes.

 

Q

Is there any concern about coming back to the ring so soon after a brutal fight like you just had three months ago?

 

R. Guerreiro

Ó, não, not at all. Para mim, the fight wasn’t even that brutal. It may have been brutal for Thurman, but I was just getting started toward the end. It actually feels good to get right back in. I got right back into the gym three weeks after that and stayed on it. Assim, after I left that ring, I still felt good. My body felt good. I just had that cut, got that taken care of, but other than that, Eu me sinto ótimo. That’s why I’m jumping right back in the ring so quick.

 

Q

I know you’re a well-known fighter throughout your career, but was there any difference after fighting on that show. That was the most viewed fight in quite a long time, being that it was on free TV on a primetime Sábado noite. Assim, I just want to know if anything changed on your end, like more notoriety.

 

R. Guerreiro

Definitivamente. When you have a 96-year-old woman come up to you in the parking lot and say, “Cara, what a great fight; that reminds me of the olden days of boxing,” it’s nice to see that. And you see all the fans coming around and just the average person that’s at the grocery store recognizing you, it’s huge. It’s not just huge for my career, but it’s huge for boxing.

 

Q

Did that factor into your wanting to come back so soon? I know you said you want to stay sharp, mas, obviamente, staying in the public eye helps as well.

 

Robert Guerrero: Ó, definitivamente. Out of sight, out of mind. So you want to stay active, you want to stay busy; you want to stay sharp. You want to stay in the public eye to make that big run before time passes.

 

Q

Aron, I just have one question for you. You’ve been out of the ring for over a year since your fight with Josesito. Was there any reason for that delay? Could you just not get fights or did you just want to take the time off to clear your head?
A. Martinez

It was just with my promoter, little here and there, they were not giving me the right fights. Anybody that knows me, I stayed in the gym, because that’s what makes it easy for me, making weight. I never have trouble making weight and that goes to show that I stay active. I stay active in the gym and that’s what it is.

 

Q

My question is for Robert Guerrero. I was a little disappointed to see that it took you quite a while to get into the fight with Keith Thurman. Do you feel like that’s going to be something you’re going to change for this fight with Aron, is taking off right off the bat, primeiro round?

 

R. Guerreiro

Sim, it goes back to being active in the ring. Everybody says, bem, Eu me sinto ótimo, there’s no ring rust, and this and that, but you truly don’t know until you get into that ring. Em seguida, those long layoffs really kill me. You develop bad habits. You lay back a little bit too much, and you end up getting started a little bit late like I did in the Thurman fight. But when I did get started, there was no stopping me.

 

Assim, that’s why I want to stay active and stay in the ring. Como eu disse antes, it’s being inactive, not being in the ring fighting. You develop habits where you do start off slowly and I felt like after the fight, when I looked back on it, it felt like I was starting off like I was sparring and just working into it, warming up, and then getting started. Glad to get that fight out of the way and shake off that ring rust, and it’s time to make that push.

 

Q

First question for Robert. Can you talk about getting up for this fight, because you fought such top level opponents and championship fights, Thurman and Mayweather and higher profile fights, and I think in this fight, you’re going to come in as a favorite. Can you talk about making sure that you don’t overlook Aron Martinez and staying sharp and getting up mentally.

 

R. Guerreiro

You never want to overlook anybody. Eu não me importo quem é. You’ve got two hands, you can throw a punch. Qualquer coisa pode acontecer no ringue. Assim, you never want to overlook anybody. I found that out earlier in my career with a loss against Gamaliel Diaz. I was overlooking him, thought I was going to take him out and he ended up out-boxing me. He beat me by one point.

 

Assim, it’s one of those things where you live and learn. You learn your lesson throughout the years and at this level of boxing and competition, you’ve got to just be able to get up and do your job and be prepared for everything. Assim, it’s not a problem. It’s like second nature to me. I wake up every day. I run. I do my gym work. If I don’t do it, it feels like I’m cheating, because I’ve been doing it since I was a kid. Assim, it’s just being well-prepared and I’m always well-prepared for every fight, as you’ve seen through my previous fights. I come to fight no matter what.

 

Q

What do you think your advantages are over him coming into this fight?
R. Guerreiro

Maybe the arm reach, the hand speed, the height. It’s a matter of not just having the advantages, but putting them to work and using them, and sticking to your game plan and being well prepared and being able to execute. Assim, it’s time to react when you get in that ring and what you’re going to do with everything to make it happen.

 

Q

Aron, I think Robert’s going to be the one coming in as the favorite in this fight, but I just noticed on a lot of the PBC cards, there have been a lot of upsets and unexpected outcomes coming in. Tell us why you’re going in expecting to win and what the effect is being on the PBC card on NBC. Does that add something special to this?
A. Martinez

Yes of course. It’s on national TV at StubHub Center, this is where I grew up. It’s my home base. Eu tenho 23 lutas. Out of these 23 lutas, I’ve never been the favorite; I’ve always been the underdog. I’m not even supposed to be at this stage. That’s what I’m looking forward to. I’ve never been the favorite in any of my fights, so I come out for every fight. I know Rob, he’s an excellent champion; he’s been in with the best. He knows I train hard for this fight because I really want it and it and I’m going to lay it all on the line. This is what I’m talking about. I’m on to show everybody.

 

Q

You’re coming off a little over a year layoff as you explained earlier, and he’s coming off just a three-month layoff after a 12-round fight. Do you think that’s going to factor into this fight, especially if it goes the distance?

 

A. Martinez

Não. It’s like what Robert said. You don’t really know until you get in the ring. We could say a bunch of things now, but you never know until you get in the ring and you actually feel it, because once you’re in the ring, it’s a whole different story, how it’s going to be. We train really, really hard for this fight, e nós estamos prontos. It’s whatever I’ve got to do, I’ve got to do. We fight inside we box, whatever. We’re ready for whatever comes our way.
Q

Aron obviously, I know you’re up for this fight, and Robert’s already expressed that he’s trained for this fight and he’s expecting the very best from you, it’s been asked twice on this call if Robert is overlooking you. Do you find that disrespectful that nobody is giving you a shot in this fight? Or do you just use it as extra motivation?

 

A. Martinez

Não. I don’t find it that way. It’s what it is. Robert has been up there with the best. And I don’t find it disrespectful; it’s just what it is, and it makes me train harder and just to make a point that who I am and they’re going to see Aron Martinez in there no sábado and they’re going to see who I am.

 

L. Milner

Ok, that was our last question. Robert, do you want to make a closing comment?

 

R. Guerreiro

Sim. I just want to thank everybody. Thank Al Haymon and thank my team and thank everybody who’s been putting in the work to get this together, and I’m coming to fightSábado noite. Eu estou pronto para ir. I’m excited and going on right before the Belmont Stakes and it’s a big event leading into another big event. Assim, I’m excited and I just can’t wait to fight.

 

The thing is staying active all year and doing my job and giving the fans what they love to see and giving them a great fight. Assim, thank all the fans and thank everybody that’s on the conference call. I really appreciate it and God bless everybody.

 

L. Milner

Ok, thanks. Aaron, do you want to make a closing comment?

 

A. Martinez

Sim, I want to thank NBC, PBC and all. Goossen for giving me this chance to show what I’ve got no sábado, and I thank Robert, and just give a good show to everybody no sábado, and I’m ready to push off and I’m ready to go. Obrigado, todo o mundo.
Lisa Milner: Obrigado. Fight week events start amanhã em 11:00 a.m. at the Wild Card West Boxing Gym with a media workout and I hope to see everybody there. Muito obrigado. Thanks to the fighters. Obrigado, Tom Brown, and thanks to the media.

DOMINIC “TROUBLE” BREAZEALE OPENS UP PBC ON NBC LIVE TELECAST & FACES UNDEFEATED CUBAN HEAVYWEIGHT YASMANY CONSUEGRA

Planalto, Califórnia (Junho 3, 2015) – Top U.S. prospeto pesado Dominic “Dificuldade” Breazeale (14-0, 13 KO) makes his return to the ring neste sábado tarde, June 6th at the StubHub Center in Carson, Califórnia. Breazeale, takes another step up in competition and faces Cuban heavyweight Yasmany Consuegra (17-0, 14 KO) in a battle of undefeated heavyweights. The televised bout will support the Robert Guerrero-Arron Martinez main-event and will open up the Premier Boxing Champions (PBC) live telecast on NBC.

O 2012 U.S. Olympian is coming off of a solid win against heavyweight veteran Victor Bisbal this past March during the inaugural PBC on NBC series. Breazeale showed true heart and resilience after experiencing the first knockdown of his career early in the first round of the bout. Breazeale recovered quickly and dominated Bisbal until the bout was stopped in the fourth round, resulting in Breazeale’s 14th win and 13th by knockout.

Immediately following the bout with Bisbal, Breazeale asked his advisor Al Haymon for another tough-quality opponent and Breazeale was granted his request.

My last bout with Bisbal was by far the toughest opponent I have ever shared the ring with. He caught me with a good shot and I recovered quickly. I shook it off and ended up stopping him a couple of rounds later. Após o ataque, I wasn’t happy that I was knocked down although many people told me that I showed resilience and that is what champions are made of. Ainda, I wanted another tough opponent and Al Haymon gave me the opportunity,” said Breazeale.

In addition to the quality opponent, Breazeale now has the chance to make an impression on many avid and casual boxing fans who will be watching the bout live on NBC Sábado tarde, an opportunity Breazeale welcomes and is thankful for.

“Este é um sonho tornado realidade para mim. Some of my previous bouts have been televised in the past, but not on a prime-time network where millions of people will be tuning in and see an American heavyweight like me. The heavyweight division is the most popular division in boxing because of its excitement and this is a bout between two undefeated heavyweights.” 

If this bout turns out as well as Breazeale has worked so hard for, he is looking to transition from a top prospect to a contender. Since turning professional two and a half years ago, Breazeale has been on the fast track to the world heavyweight title and has been learning from every training camp and fight thereafter under the tutelage of trainer John Bray.

I know I still have some room to

grow. I’ve been learning in the gym everyday and with every bout that I have had. em apenas 14 professional bouts so far, I feel that I have fought tougher opposition at this particular point of my career than the current American world heavyweight champion did in his first fourteen bouts. With the platform I have been provided neste sábado, I intend to make the best of it and will definitely give the fans watching at home an entertaining fight and hope to make a name for myself in the heavyweight division.” 

Os ingressos para o evento ao vivo, que é promovido pela TGB Promoções, custam $200, $150, $100, $50 e $25, mais impostos aplicáveis, taxas e taxas de serviço, já estão à venda e estão disponíveis para compra on-line em AXS.com.
