ЛОНДОН - февруари 23, 2019 - Chris Eubank Jr. earned a career-defining victory with a hard-fought unanimous decision over British rival and former two-time world champion James DeGale in a super middleweight grudge match Saturday on SHOWTIME from The O2 in London.



Eubank, the son of British boxing legend and former two-division world champion Chris Eubank Sr., floored DeGale twice en route to the clear decision, който беше отбелязан 114-112, 115-112, 117-109. ВИДЕО АКТУАЛНО: https://s.sho.com/2E6mWI8



Working in his first bout with a full-time trainer, Eubank fought a controlled fight. The former world title challenger floored DeGale in a rough moment in the second, stunning his rival with a big left hook against the ropes and flooring him moments later with a strong right cross that sent DeGale to the canvas for just the second fight of his career.



DeGale, who established his championship career as a slick southpaw, was unable to jab at range and couldn’t handle the constant pressure from Eubank. The former Olympic Gold Medalist resorted to lunging from the outside and was largely ineffective on the inside, often clinching while in close quarters.



“I knew he was going to come at me like that,” Eubank said. “He’s a slick southpaw, but my game plan worked. Smart pressure and not getting too ahead of myself. Той е адски боец, hell of a competitor but at the end of the day my head and my heart won this fight.”



“There was a lot of animosity leading to this fight. Казах му, че, ‘This is my time,’ and it was. He’s a veteran of the game, he throws big shots and he manages to stay up. To get up after those knockdowns is a statement about his tenacity and the type of fighter he is.”



The second knockdown came in the 10тата as Eubank landed a powerful left hook that buckled DeGale with just 30 секунди преди края на рунда. Отново, DeGale tried to clinch to avoid the knockdown, but his hand touched the canvas and was ruled just the third knockdown of his career.



След борбата, DeGale, who was the first British fighter to earn an Olympic Gold Medal and a world championship, appeared to be leaning toward retirement.



“I definitely I didn’t do enough,- каза ДеГейл. “He was on it and I didn’t do enough. You have to do more than enough to counter someone that came forward like Chris.



“I’m going to go back and talk to my team, моето семейство, and decide. I left my mark in boxing. I won an Olympic Medal, two world titles and it may be the time to hang it up.”



While DeGale contemplates retirement, Eubank has his sights set on another shot at a world title.



“This was the most important fight of my career, and I made a statement. I’m back where I’m supposed to be, at the top of the food chain. I’m coming for all the belts in the middleweight and super middleweight division. I’m fighting everyone they put in front of me.



“I’m glad to make my American debut here on SHOWTIME. I’m glad to be introduced to the American public this way – making a statement.”



При откриването схватката на doubleheader SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP Бокс, undefeated heavyweight Joe Joyce kept his knockout record intact with a sixth-round TKO of former heavyweight world champion Bermane Stiverne.



After an exciting first round, Joyce opened up the action in the second with a monstrous straight right and unloaded from bell to bell against a defenseless Stiverne, who continued to punch back despite eating damaging shots. After a series of combos in the opening minute of the third, Joyce caught Stiverne with a straight right hand to send him to the canvas for the fifth time in his professional career. Stiverne survived the round while throwing looping shots but failed to return any meaningful punches.



Джойс, на 2016 Олимпийската сребърна медалистка, consistently set up a powerful straight right behind an accurate and effective left jab throughout the fight. With Joyce (8-0, 8 Нокаута) continuing to tee off against a largely defenseless Stiverne, referee Howard Foster stepped in to halt the contest at 2:26 of the sixth. Stiverne (25-4-1, 21 Нокаута) did not protest the stoppage.



“Big respect to Stiverne – like a true champion, he’s very tough and was still throwing shots, but I guess I was just a bit too much,” Joyce said. “It was about being patient. He’s such a tough guy that he took those shots no problem.



“I was hitting him with everything I had, including the kitchen sink. I listened to Abel (Sanchez) in the corner, did everything he said and it went well. My jab was really effective. I’m a seasoned vet. I picked up my poise and remained calm along the way.



“Big things are coming. My next one will be for the WBA Regular (Заглавие) and I’ll be back in the gym soon. I need to have a couple more fights like this and then I’ll be ready for the big champions.”



Highlights of former world champion Lee Selby’s lightweight debut were featured during Saturday’s telecast. A former champion at featherweight, Селби (27-2, 9 Нокаута) overcame a second round accidental head butt to win a 12-round unanimous decision (116-112, 116-112, 115-114) over Omar Douglas (19-3, 13 Нокаута).

Here’s what the fighters and their respective camps had to say during Thursday’s press conference at Intercontinental at The O2:



JAMES DEGALE:

“I vacated my title for fights like this. Chris Eubank has been calling my name for a long time and finally I get a chance to punch him in his face.



“I have no respect for him. None. This guy is a diluted idiot. And on Saturday night I can’t wait to deal with him. I’m going to come and give it to him properly. He can’t box. We’ve all heard this before.



“This is the biggest fight of his career. It’s retirement time. Whoever loses this fight is finished. It’s do or die on Saturday…His retirement fight is here. It’s his last fight, Аз ви обещавам, че.



“I’m proven. Бил съм там, направил това. I’ve won everything. He’s done nothing. And I’m going to retire him.



“Eubank is a tough fighter, той е силен. He has a lot of good attributes, but I’m too good for him. To mix it up and go to the very top you need more than strength and toughness. Every time he’s stepped up, he’s lost.



“The fear of losing is because I know what’s on the line. This is do or die. If I can’t beat him, if I can’t beat Chris Eubank Jr., Приключих.



“A lot of people think I’ve seen better days. A lot of people think I’m on the decline. I’ve had issues in the past, but I can honestly say I’m fully fit. I’m in the best shape I’ve been for a long, Дълго време, physical and mentally. When I feel like I feel no one can beat me.



“If I can’t beat Chris that means I’m shot, that means I’m over the hill.”



CHRIS EUBANK JR.:

“This guy is a bum. He talks a good game. He’s going to have a good go, but at the end of the day I’m going to be too much for him.



“We are both at a stage where we can’t lose. We are both fighting for our careers. He knows he can’t handle me. He’s asking himself, ‘Can I survive?’ And the answer is absolutely not.



“There’s nothing he can do in that ring that I can’t handle. I’m going to box his head off.



“I’ve got a full time trainer now. За първи път в кариерата ми, I have a trainer day in and day out focusing on strategy to prepare me for what James is – a slick southpaw. That’s why I’m so confident. If he wants to run, we have the gameplan. If he wants to stand and swing, we have the gameplan. We have a plan for everything.



“What matters is that James’ career is over in a few days. I sent him a message after he lost to [Джордж] Groves saying he needs to keep up because we are going to fight one day. And now that we’re finally here I look into his eyes and I don’t see a confident guy.



“It’s my time. I’m expecting the best he’s ever been and that’s still not going to be enough.



“I’m a world-level fighter. Anyone in the boxing game knows that. This is my opportunity to prove that once and for all to set the record straight and prove I’m the real deal. I know this is a defining fight in my career. It is do or die and I’m ready for that.



“James knows what’s coming. В края на деня, his last performances haven’t been up to par, but i don’t think he respected his [past] опоненти. He respects me, and I respect him and that’s why this is a real fight.



“I’ve been in the game for a long time but this is just the beginning of a long journey for me. This is my biggest fight. Аз трябва да спечели. Ако спечеля, I’m back on the world stage. Beating James DeGale sets me up for a world title which is the whole reason I started in this game.”





ДЖИМ McDonnell:

“There are levels to boxing. Chris was a good prospect coming through but he’s not on the same level as James. He’ll find out what it takes to be a world champion. James DeGale is levels above Chris Jr.



“Chris may have all the drive he needs but he doesn’t have the skills to beat James DeGale.



“I know James is not losing. James DeGale is probably the best British fighter I’ve seen in my country.”





CHRIS EUBANK SR.:

“I’ve seen the pinnacle of James and it’s intoxicating. With Chris, not everything I’ve said has been applied. It may have been heard, but not applied. What I said works. I wouldn’t have 19 championship wins if it didn’t.



“I’m not convinced [Chris will win] because James DeGale has pedigree. Being an [Olympic] Gold Medalist and former world champion is real. I respect the man’s abilities. Junior hasn’t.



“My son looks at the physical aspect of boxing and, from a physical point of view, I don’t think there is anyone who can stand with him. But boxing isn’t just physical – it’s also spiritual, and that’s where Junior lacks. I don’t know whether he has that.



“This is a 50/50 fight and for the first time I am petrified of what the outcome can be. I am petrified that Junior may not win this fight.



“This is the wisdom of someone who has been here. You never underestimate your opponent based on past performances. Anyone who thinks this guy is on a slide because of past performances is making a mistake.



“From a physical aspect, Junior has the upper hand. From a spiritual aspect and pedigree aspect, James has the upper hand, and that’s why this is a 50/50 борба.



“I do know Chris has learned and let’s see what is produced. It can be a brilliant fight.”





Поли MALIGNAGGI:

“I like our chances. I know the guy that I have been in camp with. The things I’ve seen, I like. They are much more positive this time around.



“You can’t underestimate a guy like Eubank. He always comes to win. Но, regardless of the gameplan, there is a certain mentality and my guy has it. He’s a Gold Medalist and he knows what mentality to bring on Saturday.



“James has won two major world titles, an Olympic Gold Medal. Chris has had some good wins but when he went to that elite level, he lost. Chris is a good fighter but he’s not beaten this level of opposition.”

Борбата е добавил лошо кръв хвърлен в резултат на спаринг сесия между Джойс и Stiverne в което Джойс е бил ядосан от коментари от Stiverne в интервю след това, когато той каза, че се Джойс на училище.

Джойс каза, "Имах Зачитането на Bermane Stiverne. Ние спаринг в Лас Вегас; той каза, че ме заведе до училище в интервю и т.н., го грозен и да го направи тази борба се случи. опитах да се отнасят с уважение за него, но той е груб и беше като нищо от това.

Но без значение, ние ще се вдигне парчета и върнат Джойс, точно както аз съм върнал и помогна в създаването на много по- бъдеще заедно. Спомням си, когато дойдох тук с Оливър Маккол и той е бил даден никакъв шанс срещу Ленъкс Люис. Тогава аутсайдера стана топ кучето когато Оливър KO'd преди непобеден шампион и отидохме у дома с заглавие.

Благослови всички британски фенове, Бог да пази кралицата – но небето помагат Джо Джойс! Ще се видим на 23 февруари.”

WBC World Heavyweight Шампион Дионтей Уайлдър също представи своите мисли относно интригуващ мач, той каза, “Джо Джойс ще бъде добър тест за него (Stiverne). Виждал съм Джо Джойс преди. Той е добър боец. Джо Джойс борил Джо Ханкс в моя undercard с Тайсън Фюри, но аз не се получи шанс да го видя борим тази нощ. Но аз очаквам с нетърпение да го видя срещу Stiverne.”

Ричард Poxon, Великобритания Инициатор за PBC, каза, "Познавам Джо от аматьори си дни в Шефилд. Успехът му по време на Олимпиадата не ме изненадва. Той е прехвърлен добре за плюсовете сега и е ясно в бързаме. Най-тежката категория е тази, че всеки гледа отново и очаквам Джо, за да бъде в разгара на действието през следващата година. Като на бивш световен шампион WBC в само Вашата осми борба ясно показва какво амбиции на Джо са. "

От качването на неговата про кариера в стремежа си да се превърне в световна шампион в тежка категория, спокойно говорил Джойс е нека разрушителни юмруците му да говори при вземането на смели отчети, за да направят света на бокса седне и да си вземат бележка на бързо нарастващите звезда.

През октомври 2017 той удивени критици, когато решат да се бори втвърдената Бившият британски титлата претендент Иън Lewison, който току-що бе удължен голям пробиване Dillian Уайт до десет кръга, за неговата про-дебют и го заби в осем кръга.

След това само в четвъртата си се бори само с 12 кръгове под колана си и вътре седем месеца на завъртане професионалист, Джойс разрушила Commonwealth шампион в тежка категория Lenroy Томас само два кръга – за определяне на нов рекорд от тежка категория боксьор, за да спечели Британската колан.

В последния си двубой, Американските фенове битки имаха кратка дегустатор на това, което британската звезда е всичко за когато той разби Джо Ханкс в кръгла, за да спечели титлата на WBA Continental в Staples Center в Лос Анджелис при вземането на блестящия си северноамерикански дебют.

J

Stiverne по-рано проведе короната на WBC в продължение на две години, след като победи Крис Arreola на пункта през април 2013 да спечели титлата и след това в реванша го разрушава отвътре шест кръга в първата защита на титлата май 2014.

Dkp DON KING & BERMANE STIVERNE FILE SUIT AGAINST ALEXANDER POVETKIN & WORLD OF BOXING IN COURT OF ARBITRATION FOR SPORT

Deerfield Beach, FL (Октомври 4, 2018)—Hall of Fame boxing promoter Don King and heavyweight contender Bermane Stiverne hoped to settle things in the ring in Yekaterinburg, Russia with former Olympic gold medalist Alexander Povetkin on Dec. 17, 2016.

 

 

 

Stiverne never got the opportunity in the WBC heavyweight eliminator that morning, when WBC officials announced Povetkin had tested positive for the illegal substance ostarine and the WBC pulled the sanctioning and the fight was cancelled.

 

 

 

King and Don King Productions and Stiverne will now settle things in court as they have filed suit for $2 million in the Court of Arbitration for Sport against Alexander Povetkin and the World of Boxing.

 

 

 

Don King Productions and the World of Boxing came to an agreement on Nov. 6, 2016 for the WBC sanctioned fight between Stiverne and Povetkin scheduled for Dec. 17, 2016 with the winner facing Deontay Wilder.

 

 

 

Both fighters were to receive purses of $1,424,250 and the winner of the fight would have earned an additional $316,500. It was the second failed drug test by Povetkin in a seven-month period.

 

 

 

Stiverne hopes to return to the ring to fight for the world title again.

 

 

 

“Povetkin and Ryabinsky can’t play by the rules of the WBC and VADA,” said King, “and they denied Bermane the opportunity of a lifetime to become heavyweight champion. All the hard work leading up to the fight and then waking up the morning of the fight in Russia and being told that there wouldn’t be a fight is devastating.”

After Stiverne took Wilder the distance in their January 2015 title bout, Wilder has now knocked out every single opponent that he has faced in his career. Watch Wilder knocking out Stiverne ТУК.
So much frustration, it just seemed like my career, it’s been crazy. So many guys using PED’s”, Саид Wilder, the only American heavyweight world champion. “I just want to prove that I am the best. I know I am the best but I want to prove I am the best.
Wilder first knocked Stiverne to the ground with a devastating one-two combination that caught the Haitian challenger on the nose. Seconds after Stiverne got back to his feet, Wilder landed another clean combination with a big left and an overhand right that sent a stunned Stiverne back to the canvas. The final blow came in the waning moments of the opening round as Wilder landed four clean punches to the face of a wobbly Stiverne.
You have to give props to Stiverne for getting in the ring,” Саид Wilder. “It takes a lot of courage and it takes a lot of pride to step in the ring with someone like me. We do what we have to do in the ring and at least he stepped up. He was a clean fighter.
After the brutal knockout, an emotional Wilder was asked by SHOWTIME Sports®reporter Jim Gray about a possible fight with unified heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua.
I’ve been waiting on that fight for a long time now,” Саид Wilder. “I declare war upon you. Do you accept my challenge? I’ve been waiting for a long time. I know I’m the champion. I know I’m the best. Are you up for the test?
A king doesn’t chase the peasants. A king takes kings. I want Joshua. If he doesn’t give me the fight we have other plans. The world wants Joshua, the world wants Wilder, I want Joshua. Joshua come and see me baby. No more dodging, no more excuses. Make the date, don’t wait.
Бившият световен шампион полусредна категория Shawn Porter (28-2-1, 17 Нокаута) победен Adrian Гранадос (18-6-2, 11 Нокаута) чрез единодушно решение (отбелязаната 117-111 by all three judges) in an exciting fight between two all-action competitors that served as the co-featured event of SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING. The victory makes Porter the mandatory title challenger for unified welterweight champion Keith Thurman’s WBC belt.
Износване, who injured his left hand in the sixth round, landed the sharper and more accurate punches throughout the fight, включително и 40 процента на Неговата сила удари. Both fighters came out aggressive in the early rounds and exchanged several powerful blows.
He gave me a little trouble here and there,” Саид Porter. “I hurt my left hand in the sixth round, but I kept using it. I had to use my jab. It took a toll on me and by the 10th round I just couldn’t throw it anymore.
The strategy was to keep working the jab. I knew he’d come at me periodically. I was prepared and dug deep to get the win.
Granados, of Cicero, Ill., fought valiantly and withstood multiple barrages from the powerful Porter and countered with several quick combinations of his own. Granados, who landed just 24 процента от общите му удари, disagreed with the judgesscorecard.
I thought that I was controlling the fight and keeping up with him the whole time,” Granados told Jim Gray. “He was just trying to use his normal tricks. I rocked him multiple times and he never had me in any trouble.
He’s a brute. I thought the referee [Gary Rosato] did a good job breaking up the fight at the right times. It was rough but I definitely thought I did better than the scorecards said.
При откриването схватката на телевизията, unbeaten top contender Сергей Lipinets (13-0, 10 Нокаута) earned the vacant IBF Junior Welterweight World Championship with a unanimous decision victory over Japanese veteran Akihiro Kondo (29-7-1, 16 Нокаута). The judges scored the fight118-110, 117-111 и 117-111.
The back-and-forth 12-round world championship fight saw Lipinets control the early rounds with a diversified, creative attack targeting Kondo’s body. An accidental clash of heads in the sixth round, which opened up a deep cut on the forehead of Lipinets, altered the momentum of the fight as Kondo gained confidence and was able to land some powerful punches to the head and body of Lipinets. The 28-year old Lipinets, who earned the title in just his 13тата professional fight, was able to regain control in the later rounds to earn the unanimous win.
I think the scorecards were accurate but it was a good fight,” said Lipinets. “The head-butt really impaired my vision and it led to me walking into some stupid shots.
“Доволен съм от представянето ми. I’m just going to keep getting better from here. I’m ready to take any on challenge thrown my way.
Kondo, who was fighting for the first time in the United States, proved a worthy opponent on the night. “It was a fair decision,” said Kondo, through a translater. “He hit me with a lot of hard punches and I felt like I needed at least a knockdown in the last round.
I made up my mind that I wasn’t going to show any pain or fear from his punches. I was determined to keep fighting all night.
Събота телевизията ще се преиграе на, Неделя, Ноември 5 при 9 А.М. ET/PT and Понеделник, Ноември 6 при 10 p.m. И/PT на SHOWTIME EXTREME и ще бъде на разположение на SHOWTIME по поръчка® и SHOWTIME ВСЯКО ВРЕМЕ®.

Ето какво участниците на пресконференцията трябваше да се каже, Четвъртък from the Edison Ballroom in Manhattan:
Дионтей WILDER
Stiverne was the only man to survive the ‘Alabama Slammerand avoid a knockout. When I knock him out, then nobody will be able to say they made it through against me. He was nothing but a lot of lumps and excuses after the first fight.
It’s been a long road for me. Аз съм имал моите възходи и падения ми. The ups I’ve celebrated, but the downs have hurt the most. It’s all led me to here. All I ever wanted to do is prove to the world that I am the best. I am the baddest. I hit the hardest. I am the most feared. My record speaks for itself.
Winner takes all. I am a man of my word. We’ve heard Bermane Stiverne say these same things before. We’ve heard it all before. What happened the first time? Everybody knows. Hopefully he doesn’t get dehydrated this time.
This just turned up into a whole other level. The ambulance better be ready. The medical teams better be ready. The referee better be ready. They better have that towel to be able to throw it in because every blow is going to mean something. This just got even more personal.
There’s nothing different that he can bring to the table. He brought everything he could bring the first time. He brought all his tricksall his power. There’s nothing he’s going to be able to do this time. The only thing he’s going to be able to do is pick his spot on the ground where he’s going to lay at.
I do my talking and my walking in that ring. Ето какво е всичко това. That’s why we’re here. Ноември 4 the truth with reveal itself. That’s when it counts. When Deontay Wilder speaks, I mean what I say. But I’m going to show you, instead of tell you, в събота нощ.
This will be an electrifying fight. That belt isn’t going anywhere. I will unify the division. I will be the undefeated, undisputed heavyweight champion of the world.
Gold Cup
Deontay Wilder has been trying to duck me. He’s been giving a lot of excuses about my career. He should be happy if I’ve been inactive. He should be jumping in the air. Everyone knows that means he’s scared. He knows what time it is.
He already gave me his best. I had nothing last fight. But now I’m a very dangerous man. Everyone here knows what time it is.
I feel great and I feel strong. There will be no excuses this time. I can guarantee you this. Аз съм 100 percent this time.
Deontay said he fears for my life. Добре, I don’t fear for his life. I’m going to do whatever it takes to grab that title. And I’ll walk away with a smile on my face.
You caught me sleeping last time. Nobody is going to be sleeping this time. I’m going to be on you all night. It’s over for you.
This is a fighter that I took him the longest rounds in any of his fights. He had never gone past seven or eight.
He’s like a third round or fourth round knockout guy depending on the level of his opponent. Anyone that would be a decent or strong opponent, he’s not going to last. From rounds six through 12 he didn’t do much. Everything was in the first six.
His last fights that I’ve watched, I haven’t seen any progress.
Събота, Ноември 4 I will be two-time heavyweight champion of the world. No one can stop me. He can smile all he wants. Но в събота I’m taking that belt home with me.
Шон PORTER
I’m glad to be back. I’m excited to fight once more before the year is done. This is really another tremendous fight card and I’m honored to be a part of it.
I’m getting the seats warm this time before Deontay comes to close the show. You’re definitely going to want to be paying attention to this fight.
I wanted to get back in the ring. Adrian Granados was also looking for a fight and was willing to accept the fight. Това е толкова просто като това. I’m a boxer and my job is to compete against the best. Точно сега, he’s the best challenge that I have.
This is a great matchup. This is really fan friendly action everyone is going to see. I know I’m facing an aggressive guy who is going to come at me with everything he’s got.
I enjoy every bit about fighting at Barclays Center. The energy is always great in that building. The atmosphere is really unbelievable. I’m happy to fight there again.
The respect that Granados and I have for each other, that’s what boxing is all about. It’s about getting in the ring and competing. We wanted someone that was going to come here and fight me. We didn’t want someone who was going to run or lay down. We want to close the year out in fantastic form, and the best way to do that is by facing Granados.
ADRIAN Гранадос
I’m very grateful to be here and have this opportunity against Shawn Porter. I appreciate it and I thank him and his team. This is definitely going to be a great fight.
I’m fighting for everyone back home and all the people that are with me every day. Everyone knows how dedicated we are and that will all come together on fight night.
This is all about proving myself and showing that I belong with the best of the sport. I have to take an opportunity like this when it’s offered to me. There’s nothing to do now but get in the ring and get down to business.
This is a tremendous opportunity. Идвам, за да спечели, not lay down. I’m here to fight. We both have fan-friendly styles and may the best man win.
СЕРГЕЙ LIPINETS
“Това е една сбъдната мечта за мен. I had to work very hard and overcome a lot to get to this point. Now that I’m here, I want to give the fans a great fight.
I’m going to go for the knockout and become a world champion. This is the thing that motivates me every day through this hard training camp.
I am prepared for anything Kondo can bring to the ring. He has earned his right to fight for the title and I have to take him very seriously and be at my very best.
AKIHIRO KONDO
I’m going to do my best to win for all of my fans in Japan. I’m going to take this world title belt back home to Japan and I’m happy to have the support of my country.
I’ve come a long way to get here. Това е Меката на бокса. I feel really relaxed and calm. This feels like a normal fight for me still.
No matter what happens in this fight, I think that is going to come down to heart. I am determined not to lose in that area.
LOU DIBELLA, Президентът на DiBella Entertainment
This is a terrific card from top to bottom. I love this show. Dominic Breazeale vs. Ерик Молина, Amanda Serrano a pound-for-pound champion, and two undefeated local kids Chris Colbert and Titus Williams, all featured on this card. The show is truly loaded with talent and stars.
Nothing gets bigger than the defense of America’s only heavyweight championship. Deontay Wilder defending his title against Bermane Stiverne, the only man that Deontay has not been able to knockout.
“Това е опасна битка. Stiverne is big, strong and he can punch. This is Christmas for him. He has nothing to lose. He can walk out of here with the heavyweight championship of the world.
Shawn Porter is fighting against a real deserving challenger. Shawn is a champion with or without a belt, and Granados always makes great fights and he’s going to give it 120 на сто.
Kondo is a very accomplished fighter, but he’s going to have his hands full with Sergey LIpinets. Whenever LIpinets gets in the ring, someone gets hurt. I think he has a chance to go very far.
Дон Кинг, Зала на славата Promoter
I want to thank all of these young men up here who are fighting for the crown. Stiverne has something in store for Wilder в събота night that will be a shock. It’s going to be the Fight of the Year. Unquestionably.
Deontay has never really met Bermane Stiverne, so I’m going to introduce them. It’s going to be a fantastic night of fighting at Barclays Center. You will have a tremendous upset в събота night when Bermane Stiverne knocks out Deontay Wilder.
After this happens, we can have a rubber match. It will be an exciting time for me в събота night and the start of a ‘November to Remember.'
СТИВЪН Еспиноза, Изпълнителен вицепрезидент & Генерален мениджър, Шоу Спорт
This weekend’s telecast will be the second weekend of heavyweight title fights on SHOWTIME. We all know these two faced each other in 2015, but neither fighter went home happy. Deontay was impressive but he didn’t get the knockout. Stiverne is the only blemish on Wilder’s perfect knockout streak. Ever since that fight, Bermane has been asking for the rematch. В събота both men will get their wish. Deontay can send a message to the rest of the division and Bermane gets a second chance at a world title
The first time they fought, everyone saw it as Deontay’s toughest opponent. Out of 42 media members, 22 predicted Deontay to win and 20 picked Stiverne. This is an all-action heavyweight fight with America’s heavyweight world champion.
Sometimes a big fight can suck up the attention from the co-featured fights on the card. Both of these opening bouts could have been a main event and would be a main event on any other network. Porter and Granados is an intriguing matchup of all action fighters and if you haven’t seen Sergey LIpinets fight, I urge you to turn on the TV early and get to the arena, because this will be an entertaining fight.
By the end of the night we will have done 29 world title fights this year alone. There is no other network that could put on that many high quality fights. We look forward to closing the year on a strong note в събота нощ.”
BRETT YORMARK, CEO of Brooklyn Sports & Забавление
Тази събота will be our last Brooklyn boxing event of the year. It’s been an incredible 2017. It started with Badou Jack vs. James DeGale, then in March the Keith Thurman vs. Danny Garcia fight, which was probably the biggest we ever had at the arena. It hit new marks that we hadn’t seen before. This summer we had the Mikey Garcia vs. Adrien Broner fight and we’ve also seen the Charlo brothers fight at Barclays Center in 2017 and become stars.
It’s been a great year full of memorable moments and I couldn’t think of a better way to end the year than with Deontay в събота нощ. When Deontay defended his title at Barclays Center last year, it was the first heavyweight title fight in the borough of Brooklyn in 115 years and we’re excited to have him back.

Joining the televised fighters at Gleason’s Gym в сряда were five-time world champion Аманда Serrano, who returns to the ring in undercard action Saturday. Also in attendance were unbeaten prospects Chris Colbert и Titus Williams, who meet in an eight-round featherweight attraction.
Ето какво борците трябваше да каже Сряда:
Дионтей WILDER
Stiverne is going to see me come to Barclays Center and finish the job в събота. He survived the first time. He’s the only one to survive on their feet. This is something that I’ve come back to. I will finish the job this time.
Stiverne had a lot of excuses after the last fight. Nobody wants to hear excuses from the loser. He knows what happened. Аз го победи 12 rounds in a row. I think this fight will be even easier for me. He hasn’t improved since we last fought, but I’m going to show him a whole new Deontay Wilder. This is the end of Bermane Stiverne’s career right here.
As soon as Anthony Joshua accepts the fight, then I’ll be there. They’re trying to distract people because they know that I’m a danger to anybody’s career. All their excuses have nothing to do with the sport of boxing. The only thing people care about is the best fighting the best, and that’s what I’m trying to do.
I thought the first Stiverne fight should have been stopped. He had knots all over his faced and was concussed. I’m not trying to leave any doubt this time around.
This is my mandatory opponent. I must face him and that’s just what it is. I’ve called out every name in the sport. All the top guys have ducked me, so I just have to take care of the people that are able to get in the ring.
Gold Cup
I have no fear heading into this fight. It’s not that I didn’t see the openings in the last fight, I just couldn’t physically perform how I needed to.
I had health concerns last fight but now I’ve turned the chapter on that and I’m focusedв събота нощ. This is going to be a completely different fight this time around
I’m hungry to win. I’m always motivated and excited about getting into the ring, but obviously this is the biggest chance I’m going to have.
The stage is set and my destiny is in front of me. I always said I was going to be the first person to beat him, and that is going to come together в събота.
Everything has been perfect in camp. Deontay is going to be in for a real rude awakening в събота. I’m going to let my fists do the talking for me.
Шон PORTER
“Това е страхотен мач в стил. I think that’s why this fight was made. We are two guys that are going to go in there and go 12 твърди кръга. My job is to get in there and outbox him and get him out of there.
I don’t think I need to make any adjustments because I can come forward, move around the ring, create anglesI think Adrian isn’t exactly ready for that. My foot movement and of course my hand speed will be the difference.
This is the second eliminator for me. It is about doing it again. I have to get the job done and get that fight with Keith Thurman.
I want to make it very clear that I’m the better boxer. I want it to be clear that I can do to Adrian Granados what no one else has been able to doput him on his butt.
On all of our gear we wrote #VegasStrong. We want to send a message to everyone in Vegas that I don’t just live there, but it is part of my heart now. My heart goes out to everyone affected by the tragedy and now we are over a month past that. I am fighting for the people of Vegas.
ADRIAN Гранадос
It means a lot to me to be in this fight on this stage. I definitely need to win and bounce back from my loss to Broner and show that I have a lot more to give to this sport. I’m far from down and out, I just showed up to the party and I’m ready to leave my mark.
“Мисля 147 is a weight that I’ll be good at. I’ve fought here and at 140-pounds so I’m comfortable either way. This was just an opportunity that I couldn’t pass up.
I never fight the same way. This is a fight and it’s going to have everything that comes with that. I’m going to be prepared for what Shawn Porter brings to the ring. This fight kind of came out of nowhere but it was easy for me to agree to.
This is a great opportunity to prove that I’m able to fight with anyone in this sport. I can compete on the highest level and I’m going to show everyone that I’m a force on fight night.
СЕРГЕЙ LIPINETS
I’m very happy right now. I’m very excited to fight for a title, but I know how to contain my emotions and direct them in a positive way. When I get in the ring, I’m going to make everyone else happy with my performance.
I had great sparring partners for this camp and I’ve worked hard with Buddy McGirt to get in the best shape possible. My team did a great job getting me to this point so I couldn’t be happier.
“На това ниво, there are no bad fighters. Anyone who walks in the ring and stands in their across from me should be respected.
My preparation for this fight has been at the same level as it was for all of my other fights. I always train like the title is on the line. I always bring my best and I know that Kondo will do. He’s trying to take advantage of this opportunity too.
I was here in March fighting on the Keith Thurman vs. Danny Garcia undercard and I knew that one day I would be fighting for the title in that same arena. I love New York and I love the boxing fans here. This is just a great event and I hope everyone sees my performance.
AKAHIRO KONDO
I had a really strong training camp. Чувствам се готов да се бие. I’m ready to go today If I had to. Everything in camp went as well as I could have hoped.
I know that Lipinets is a hard puncher and a very good overall fighter. I’m going to do my best to avoid the big shots and use my skills.
I want to put on a performance that will guarantee that people will remember my name. I think it’s going to be a really good fight and make me more well-known throughout the world. I’m not just doing this for myself, but for everybody back home.
I’m so grateful and excited to have the opportunity to be on this card. I know how fortunate I am to be in this position and I’m ready to make the most of it.
Аманда SERRANO
Every fight is huge for me to show that I’m still winning and continuing to get better. I love fighting at Barclays Center on big shows like this one. It’s always fun to fight in front of your fans and hopefully as I gain recognition I can bring bigger and better things to women’s boxing.
I’m always looking for the next big challenge. Eventually I would like to break my own record and look to grab a title in a sixth weight class. I’m ready to take on the best fighters and the biggest challenges.
You can’t underestimate anyone in this sport, so we trained very hard leading up to this one. She’s coming in here to knock my head off. This camp was actually a little different because I didn’t have to diet for this fight. I could actually eat at this weight and I’m feeling really strong.
I’m facing a tough girl who’s only been stopped twice, so my goal is to make this one quick. The faster the fight the easier for me and it gives the fans something to get excited about.
CHRIS COLBERT
I’m different from a lot of other up-and-coming fighters in this business. I’m willing to take risks. In this boxing game it’s either win or lose, and I’m in it to win.
I’m familiar with Titus as a fighter and I know that I have what it takes to beat him. That’s the name of the game and that’s the goal в събота.
Training camp was tremendous. This was the longest camp that I’ve ever had. We’ve gone strong for seven weeks straight. No days off, just hard work every day.
“чувствам 100 percent healthy right now. Всичко се случва с причина. That minor setback that I had, it’s leading to a major comeback starting в събота нощ.
I love to fight in my city. It’s always great to have my city behind me. Once I get in the ring though, it’s just another day for me. I’m going to show off my skills. I’m going to bring everything I need to get this win.
TITUS WILLIAMS
Taking on a fight like this proves that I’m fearless. I’m willing to take on all the challenges in this sport. I’m not looking to pad my record with easy wins. When there is a challenge put in front of me, I’m ready willing and able to face it.
I’m in the best shape of my life right now. I’ve never felt this good heading into a fight. Mentally and physically I’m in a really good place and ready to go.
Colbert has speed, he’s crafty and he’s slick. He’s going to come to fight and he’s going to come to win. But I’m going to break his will.
All of those attributes that he has, I have the same ones. But I have the difference maker. In the professional game, that difference maker is power.
I’m facing a guy I came up with during the amateurs and went on national trips with. None of that really matters to me when the bell rings. I have to go in there and do my job, and that’s to win.

Porter spoke from his training camp in Las Vegas, while Granados shared his thoughts from camp in Chicago, just over a week before they go toe-to-toe in Brooklyn:
Шон PORTER
Training camp has gone very well. We did most of our work here in Las Vegas and also a little bit at Wild Card in California. We’re at the tail end of camp now. Every day is going to be exciting as we taper off and get ready for Ноември 4.
I feel very familiar with Granados at this point. One night I watched about three or four of his fights and some interviews and really got to put him in my mind. He’s an aggressive fighter who’s not easily hurt or fazed by what’s going on in the ring. Whether that’s him getting hit or an opponent making him miss.
This is going to be a very competitive fight. The key to beating him will be my speed. I have to out box him, make him walk into some heavy shots and eventually knock him out.
I love Las Vegas but I’m always very excited to get the opportunity to fight at Barclays Center. It’s a genuinely fun arena. The energy there is bar-none. I absolutely love being able to entertain crowds out there in Brooklyn.
We’re going after the WBC title. We’re going to have our sights set on Keith Thurman. I want to get that rematch sometime next year. Outside of that, the only fighter on my mind is Danny Garcia, because he’s a guy who I think I’d make an exciting fight with.
ADRIAN Гранадос
I know I have a fan-friendly style and I make my opponent fight regardless if he bangs or boxes. Bringing exciting fights is what I’m known for to the fans and media. It’s going to be the fight of the night.
It was a surprise when I got the call for this fight but I jumped right at the opportunity to get in the ring with Shawn Porter. He had a close fight with Keith Thurman and a win over Adrien Broner so a victory over him puts me right back at the top of the division.
Shawn fought at 165 в аматьорите, much bigger than me and I remember him well, he was also a football player so he was much heavier. Since he turned pro I’ve spent more time watching his fights and studying him, especially these last few weeks knowing that we’re fighting each other at 147.
It’s better for me to know right from the start the weight is at 147, the previous camp for Broner we started at 142 and then had to move to 147 very late in the camp. Knowing it’s been 147 from the start has helped me to better prepare for this fight with Shawn Porter. It will also help me to come in a little heavier on fight night.
Training and sparring has all been here in Chicago at the Garfield Park Gym. Camp has been terrific, very smooth especially with no weight issues.
I’m very excited to be fighting at Barclays Center and I know that this is more of a neutral site. I know that Shawn’s the favorite but I feel good about fighting in Brooklyn. I’ve been to Barclays Center twice to watch fights and I’m excited to be fighting thereследващата събота нощ.
“Ако спечеля, I’ll be the mandatory for Keith Thurman’s WBC belt and that’s my motivation. Expect a classic ‘El Tigre’ производителност, no back down, no quit, a classic boxing match.
