Después de dos caídas y 12 intenso, espalda y adelante rondas, la distinción como el mejor súper mediano del mundo aún está en juego.
Campeón del CMB Badou Jack (20-1-3, 12 KOs) y campeón de la FIB James DeGale (23-1-1, 14 KOs) luchó por un empate mayoritario de 12 asaltos en el evento principal de SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING frente a 10,128 Barclays Center en Brooklyn. La pelea fue anotada 114-112 (DeGale) y 113-113 dos veces, y el único ganador claro fue el deporte del boxeo y sus fanáticos.
DeGale de Gran Bretaña, haciendo la tercera defensa de su cinturón FIB, Comenzó el drama derribando a Jack con un golpe con 30 segundos por jugarse en la primera ronda. Pero fue de ida y vuelta desde allí en un, batalla muy reñida entre el mejor consenso en la categoría de peso y en el octavo combate de unificación en la historia de la división.
Gato, haciendo su tercera defensa del título, era más eficaz por dentro y más activo, lanzamiento 745 golpes totales vs. DeGale 617.
El momento crucial de la pelea ocurrió cuando Jack derribó a DeGale por primera vez en su carrera con un golpe combinado de izquierda a derecha a mitad de camino. 12º y ronda final. Sin el 10-8 ronda, DeGale habría ganado por decisión unánime.
"Yo pensé que gané la pelea. Terminé más fuerte,"Dijo Jack. "Su caída fue una caída rápida. Que gané la pelea. Estaba corriendo mucho. Estaba tirando mucha mierda a mi guardia.
"Hagámoslo de nuevo en peso semipesado. Es hora de pasar al peso semipesado ".
DeGale respondió: "Tengo un gran respeto por este hombre, pero pensé que había ganado eso. Conseguí los tiros más limpios. Hagámoslo de nuevo. Hagámoslo de nuevo en Londres.
"Él me pegó (en el 12º), pero estaba más fuera de balance. Lo respeto. Es un buen, all-around de combate. Vamos otra vez."
Invicto protegido de Floyd Mayweather en 130 libras Gervonta Davis (17-0, 16 KOs) destronado campeón mundial de peso ligero junior de la FIB Jose Pedraza (22-1, 12 KOs) con un impresionante nocaut técnico en el séptimo asalto (2:36) en la pelea de apertura de SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING.
Davis fue sumamente preciso desde la campana de apertura, aterrizando un asombroso 48 por ciento de sus golpes de poder y 40 por ciento de sus disparos totales. Davis ganó su primer título en apenas 22 año de edad, similar a su mentor Mayweather, que recogió su primer cinturón en la misma categoría de peso cuando estaba 21.
Pedraza hacía la tercera defensa de su cinturón, pero no salió con su tradicional plan de juego de "francotirador" de luchar a distancia y destrozar a su oponente. Davis ganó confianza mientras se conectaba por dentro, aterrizando a un ritmo impresionante y evitando que su oponente puertorriqueño aterrice con un movimiento lateral y de cabeza efectivo.
El nativo de Baltimore lastimó a Pedraza con un enorme gancho de izquierda al cuerpo en los momentos iniciales del sexto asalto., obligando a Pedraza a proteger su costado derecho mientras come combinaciones repetidas sin respuesta para el ataque. Davis aterrizó más de 50 por ciento de sus golpes de poder en el sexto y Pedraza nunca se recuperó realmente. Fue derribado en el séptimo asalto por un gran gancho de derecha., cayendo a la lona por primera vez en su carrera. Pedraza se levantó, pero el árbitro Ricky González sintió que Pedraza fue derrotado e inmediatamente detuvo el concurso.
"He tenido experiencia, Te estaba contando todo eso y no lo creías,"Dijo Davis, quien se convirtió en el campeón mundial reinante más joven. "Hice el trabajo duro, y nosotros saliendo arriba, significa mucho. Tener un gran boxeador y promotor apoyándome se siente genial.
"En este campamento, Estudié "Pretty Boy" Floyd, no 'Dinero'. Aprendí a mantener la compostura. Me atrapó con algunos buenos tiros. Lo tomé y volví a salir. Así es como demuestras que eres un tipo de verdad.
"Sentí que se estaba acostando. Lo atrapé una vez en el cuerpo y retrocedió. Mi equipo me dijo que volviera al cuerpo. Mi equipo me dijo que me mantuviera bajo control y volviera al cuerpo ”.
Dijo Mayweather: "Para este campo de entrenamiento, No quería estar cerca de él. No queria hablar con el. Quería que se concentrara para que pudiera salir y tener razón.. ¿Es este el futuro del boxeo?? Absolutamente jodidamente. "
Pedraza admitió que cometió un error fundamental al luchar contra el juego de Davis.
"La estrategia era luchar contra él desde la distancia, pero no funcionó de esa manera,Pedraza dijo. "En rachas lo hice, pero al final estaba tratando de presionar demasiado y eso no funcionó.
"Hubo un momento en el que me ajusté al plan de juego que quería, pero seguí tratando de pelear con él y no funcionó.
"No es excusa, pero yo estaba en 135 libras y aceptar esta pelea tal vez no fue el movimiento correcto ".
Amanda Serrano (31-1-1, 23 KOs) aprovechó la oportunidad de pelear en la primera pelea por el título mundial de mujeres en la televisión nacional en inglés en casi una década, con una actuación dominante en la victoria. Serrano defendió su Campeonato Mundial Peso Pluma Júnior de la OMB sobre la ex campeona mundial de dos divisiones Yazmin Rivas (35-10-1, 10 KOs) por decisión unánime. Los jueces anotaron la pelea 97-97, 98-92, 99-91.
Serrano fue el peleador más ocupado desde la campana de apertura, y conectó casi el doble de golpes que su oponente - 206 comparado con 107 - mientras se conecta en una impresionante 41 por ciento de sus golpes de poder.
“We knew she was going to come to fight,” Serrano said. “She’s a Mexican fighter who’s very tough and experienced. I had to show her my power and my skills. I was glad to get 10-rounds in and I hope the fans enjoyed the fight.
“We wanted the knockout, but I was ready for 10-rounds. People who think I’m just a brawler saw that I’m a great boxer today. We picked a tough opponent because we wanted to showcase that I can beat good fighters and take a punch if I have to. I can do everything in the ring. We wanted the toughest fighter out there and she came to fight.
“It was a great night for women’s boxing and I hope it keeps getting bigger and bigger. Queremos lo mejor. My goal is to drop to 118 pounds and win a title in my fifth division. I want to fight other champions. My goal is to be the first Puerto Rican to hold world titles in five weight classes.”
Rivas disagreed with the decision.
“It was an excellent fight. I followed all of the instructions from my corner and I believe that I won,” Rivas said. “I think the last round was very close, but I think I did well in all the rounds.
“I knew everything was against me and to win I had to knock her out. Unfortunately it didn’t happen today. I believe that after this fight, women will have more opportunities to show their skills on television.”
In an exciting matchup of undefeated middleweights that saw multiple knockdowns and swings of momentum, Immanuel Aleem (17-0-1, 10 KOs) defeated previously unbeaten Ievgen Khytrov (14-1, 12 KOs) by sixth-round TKO.
Aleem struck first with a massive overhand right that staggered Khytrov and left him wide-eyed and susceptible to punishment. Aleem pushed forward and continued to land punches, but the Ukrainian was able to stay on his feet to survive the round and return to his corner.
Khytrov recovered brilliantly to win the second round on all three judges’ scorecards, Incluyendo 10-8 in the eyes of one judge. The third round saw an early candidate for Round of the Year in which Aleem dropped Khytrov hard with a strong left hook that put Khytrov down for the first time in his career. Khytrov continued to show incredible resolve as he was able stay on his feet and blast Aleem with a late shot that nearly put Aleem out.
The back-and-forth continued with Khytrov seemingly beginning to take control of the bout until the sixth round when Aleem landed a series of overhand right hands that put Khytrov down again. Khytrov beat the count but Aleem continued to push forward and battered a defenseless Khytrov until referee Eddie Claudio halted the bout 1:20 into round six. Aleem landed 50 percent of his power punches in the bout that was scheduled for 10-rounds.
The opening bout of the telecast saw former title challenger Thomas Dulorme (24-2, 16 KOs) earn a sixth-round TKO victory over Brian Jones (13-7, 7 KOs) in their welterweight contest. In his first bout since signing with Mayweather Promotions, the Puerto Rican-fighter dominated and controlled the fight by landing 46 por ciento de sus golpes de poder.
Big overhand rights and uppercuts did most of the damage early for Dulorme as he staggered Jones in a dominant third round. Dulorme began to work the body shots in as he wore Jones down but missed low repeatedly in round five and had a point deducted from him by referee Shada Murdaugh. Dulorme was able to recover in the next round and used a strong flurry to force the referee to intervene and stop the fight at 1:49 de la sexta ronda.

Esto es lo que los combatientes tenían que decir Miércoles:
JACK BADOU
“I’m just trying to stay positive and enjoy this moment. I wish that the fight was mañana noche. But we’re showing patience and bracing for the opportunity.
“This is the biggest fight of my career and I’m ready to take it to the next level. I have the experience to be on this stage and I’m ready to show that I’m one of the best in the sport.
“I’ve seen DeGale fight a few times. His last couple of fights I don’t think we’ve seen the best of him. I want the best James DeGale to show up on fight night. There won’t be any excuses on fight night.
“I’m in the best shape of my life. I’m pretty sure he’s in the best shape of his life too. So let’s see who is the best.
“I’m going in there to break him down. I’m going to be the better fighter. If I get an opportunity to land something that can change the fight, I’m going to take my chance.
“This has been one of the best training camps of my career. My nutrition is better than it’s ever been and I have positive people around me.
“I believe I can knock anybody out who gets in the ring with me. If you don’t believe that in yourself, then you’re in the wrong sport. I’m not expecting an easy fight, but I’ll do whatever it takes to win.
“My trainer Lou Del Valle is the reason that I’ve improved so much. I brought him back in after my loss and he’s helped get me to where I am right now.
“There is no doubt we’ll know who the best super middleweight in the world is after Sábado noche ".
James DeGale
“I just flew to New York los lunes after a brilliant camp. I’ve been training well and sparring hard. I’ve had some great work on the track and I’ve ran a lot of miles. Estoy en forma fantástica.
“This fight has a different feel. I feel like I’m in a big fight. I feel like I’m on a different level of fitness for this one. Mind, body and soul. Todo está bien.
“I’m mentally prepared. Badou Jack is an extremely good fighter. He’s a tough opponent. He gets better every single fight. The way I’m feeling right now, Badou Jack shouldn’t beat me. I’m focused on fighting my very best.
“I’ve sacrificed a lot to put myself in this position and to make sure this was a great camp. Now the time is here.
“To have a media day in Brooklyn is great. I’m in a fantastic position in my life and career. I’m more comfortable than I was years ago. Back in the day I wouldn’t know what to say. I’m a man now and I’m ready to reach my destiny.
“Movement, speed and angles are my keys. If I’m focused and take no rounds off, that should do it. It will do it. Anything can happen in boxing, but I’m too prepared for this.
“I look at Badou Jack, and even though he’s been getting better, I think I’m a much better fighter. He’s very high quality and I have to be on my game. Va a ser una gran pelea, but I will be victorious.
“My loss to George Groves was a blessing in disguise. If that didn’t happen to me, I don’t know where I would be in my career. I was too big for my boots back then. I thought I was the golden boy and I was humbled. I had to rebuild and I came back.”
JOSE PEDRAZA
“I let [Gervonta] Davis do the talking. I like when people talk like that, because I get to shut them up on the night of the fight. He’s a Floyd Mayweather imitation. Just like all imitations, it’s not as good as the real one.
“I’m very happy to be here representing Puerto Rico in New York City with another Puerto Rican champion in Amanda Serrano. She’s a four-time champion who is very accomplished and it’s an honor to be on this card with her.

“I have the advantage in experience and in reach and height. He’s going to try to bring pressure but I’ll be ready for it.
“Not only do I have more pro experience, but more amateur experience as well. All of these years of being on the big stage is going to help me in the fight.
“I don’t think I’m underrated. People know my quality, which is why people avoid fighting me. I believe I’m the best fighter at 130-pounds.
“I’m ready for any type of fight. La pregunta es, will Davis be ready? If Davis gets tired, he’s going to have trouble in the late rounds.”
GERVONTA DAVIS
“I feel great right now. I’m in tip-top shape. I had the best sparring available and everything went smoothly. I’m ready to go to work Enero 14.
“We know that Pedraza is a world champion who comes in undefeated. He does a lot of good things in the ring but we’ll be ready for them come fight night.
“It feels good to be on this stage. I feel ready to headline my own card. I’m ready to do my own thing and that comes with winning this world title.
“I haven’t watched too much of him, but my team is prepared. He doesn’t have anything I haven’t seen before. We just have to execute the game plan when the bell rings.”
YAZMIN RIVAS
“I know that I’m up against a girl who is a heavy hitter and can punch hard. I’ve been training extremely hard to prepare for this fight because I know I’m facing a dangerous fighter. I just need to maintain my weight up until fight night.
“I’ve trained with a lot of southpaws to prepare for Serrano’s style. It’s only the second time I’ve faced a southpaw. I come in with a game plan, but once you step in that ring, I know that anything can happen.
“I’m a veteran and I have the experience. Serrano will have to overcome my advantage there.
“I’m excited to be fighting in the U.S. and I know that this is a huge opportunity. Fighting on television is something I have to take advantage of. Después de esta pelea, people will really see what female boxing is all about.
“I’m very motivated and excited that I have the chance to fight in Brooklyn in the best city in the U.S. for boxing. Voy a venir a luchar. I won’t back down and we will be in the middle of the ring exchanging.”
IEVGEN KHYTROV
“I’ve seen Aleem fight and he’s nothing special. He’s very fast. He does everything very quickly. But he can be hit. He has a little bit of power, but I can hit him.
“I’m going to take advantage of his mistakes. I’m ready for this fight and I’m going for the knockout. This isn’t going to be a long fight. I think I will knock him out in five or six rounds.
“I’m an aggressive fighter. I want to brawl. I want to throw a lot of punches. I’m happy if I can throw 100 punches in a round. Nobody can take that kind of punishment and it helps me get my opponent out of there.
“I’m happy to be fighting in Brooklyn at Barclays Center. It’s very important to my career. After this fight I am going to get big steps up and big names. I’m going to show what I can do en sábado.
“I want to fight for a real world title. I’m ready for it and I just want to face good opponents and challenge myself.”
IMMANUWEL ALEEM
“This has been a great training camp. I have George Peterson in my corner and he made Paul Williams a three-time champion. He’s putting me through the same regimen that made him one of the most feared fighters in the sport.
“No sé mucho acerca de mi oponente. We have a game plan based around him being some type of bull, but my trainer is the one analyzing that, and then we go from there.
“I bring the total package into the ring. No hay nada que no pueda hacer. I can box and I can brawl. Most importantly, I can make adjustments during a fight.
“A win here will really stamp who I am in this sport. We’re leading to become a world champion. I’m not a regular fighter in there. I can beat these top guys.”
JULIAN SOSA
“I can honestly say that this is one of the best training camps that I’ve had. I’m both nervous and excited. I’m nervous because I’ve never had a training camp like this and I’m excited to see how I feel in the ring.
“I’ve seen a few tapes of my opponent. He’s a very aggressive fighter who throws a lot of right hands. I have to prepare myself for that. If he wants to start early or take his time, I’m ready for anything.
“I’m very confident heading into this fight. I believe that I will put on a great performance and possibly the best of my career.
“I’m very thankful to be fighting at home in Brooklyn and I’m humbled to have the opportunity to perform at Barclays Center once again. There’s no better feeling than having your friends and family cheering you on.
