HVAÐ: SHOWTIME Sports correspondent Brendan Schaub sits down with undefeated heavyweight world champion Deontay Wilder for an intimate conversation on the pressures of being a world champion in boxing’s highest profiled division.

 

Wilder faces former heavyweight champion Gold Cup á Showtime CHAMPIONSHIP Hnefaleikar® í a Nóvember 4 rematch that headlines a Premier Boxing Champions event LIVE on Showtime (9 p.m. OG/6 p.m. PT) frá Barclays Center, the home of BROOKLYN BOXING™.

 

“Even when people see me out and posting [on social media], it doesn’t mean I’m resting,” Wilder told Schaub. “I’m just taking a little bit of time off and relaxing my mind. In this sport there are a lot of things that I want to do, and things that have to be done. I want to be the savior of heavyweight boxing.”

 

Schaub asked Wilder as the only American heavyweight champion, why he hasn’t received the notoriety yet that he deserves in the U.S. “I don’t get it either,” Wilder said. “It’s mind boggling to see Americans support others before they support their own.”

 

hann bætti: “I like to joke around. I like to laugh. I like to get corny sometimes. I like to get silly. Þú veist, I just like to live life … I’m neutral when it comes to a lot of things. I’m an open-minded person. So whether it’s religion or whether it’s race or whether it’s sexuality; I’m not the person to judge. It’s not my place because if I judge you, then God is going to judge me the same way.”

BROOKLYN (Október. 14, 2017) – Heavyweight World Champion Deontay Wilder and Welterweight World Champions Keith Thurman and Errol Spence Jr. met with the media on Saturday at Barclays Center to discuss their upcoming bouts and expected 2018 campaigns.
Wilder will defend his WBC belt on Nóvember. 4 against mandatory challenger Bermane Stiverne live on SHOWTIME from Barclays Center in a Premier Boxing Champions event. Thurman announced he expects to return in early 2018 in his first bout since unifying the division and subsequent surgery.
In news on Saturday, IBF Welterweight Champion Spence announced that he will make the first defense of his belt against former world champion Lamont Peterson in January 2018 on SHOWTIME on a date and site to be determined.
Below are flash quotes from the three fighters:
Deontay Wilder
What other heavyweight is doing what I do? What other heavyweight has power like me? I don’t have to put you out in punches in bunches. I don’t have to do that. One punch. Goodnight.
I’m happy that I’ve had time to calm down and think about things. I’m happy that I’m fighting Stiverne because he’s my mandatory. I can finally get him out the way so I’ll be a free man.
This is the story of my life. Every situation that I’m put in, I try to be optimistic about. It’s easy to appreciate the good. But when the bad comes, some people don’t know how to manage that.
I’m the most frustrated guy around. Ég skil ekki. The best are supposed to fight the best, réttur? I’ve always done that. I called (Wladimir) Klitschko out years ago.
People make so many excuses for my career. The one who is actually trying to make a legacy out of their career, he’s the only one that’s not complaining. The people who don’t have to get in the ring and endure this suffering are the ones that complaining.
Keith Thurman
I’m in the bounce-back stage. It won’t be long before I get back into the ring and hopefully my arm will be better than ever. We’re estimating I’ll be ready for a fight the first quarter of next year.
I look forward to continuing my legacy and dominating the welterweight division.
Everything happens for a reason. I’m 28-years-old and it doesn’t feel good to not be an active fighter while you’re in your prime.
I don’t think that I will take that level of a fight [against Shawn Porter] coming off my injury. I think we’re going to just get a welcome back fight. Throw the arm around, test it out, have an injury-free camp, take the momentum from that and we can possibly get in the ring with Shawn after that.
I look forward to that [potential] fight against Errol. I look forward to great competition and Errol is that. This is a fight that you guys have been talking about, you won’t stop talking about, and you should keep talking about it because when it goes down it will be one of the best fights of this generation.
Everybody knows there’s no Floyd Mayweather. There’s no Manny Pacquiao. Everybody thinks they know who the real champion is. But real talk is that the king of the welterweight division will manifest within one to two years.
“[Terence] Crawford has whacked up a lot of people, but he hasn’t whacked up a welterweight yet. He still needs to make himself relevant in this division. He’s a 140 óumdeildur meistari. He can come up to this weight division and fight anybody in the top 10 and he deserves that. But we are so flooded with talent he is going to have to make himself relevant at 147 before he gets his hands on us.
Errol Spence Jr.
“Ég er ánægður að vera hér, it’s been awhile. It’s finally time to defend my title, capture more titles and become the undisputed welterweight champion of the world. That’s what I’m ready to do next year.
“[Peterson] is somebody that I looked up to as an amateur. I sparred with him as an amateur and learned a lot from him. He’s one of my favorite fighters and is a guy that will fight anybody. I’ve never known him to duck a fight.
Lamont is a tricky fighter. He’s been around the block. He does a lot of cagey, veteran things. I’m looking to get experience in this fight. I’m still a young fighter.
Since I was 5-0, I’ve said I’d fight Keith Thurman or anybody in the top 5. He’s got to go through rehab, but I’m ready when he is. I’m always ready to fight the best.

We’ve recognized that Deontay’s opponent has changed, and we’ve restructured ticket prices to encourage as many fans as possible to attend a great night of fights, and the Heavyweight Championship of the world,” said Lou DiBella of DiBella Entertainment, the promoter of the card. “Stiverne is thrilled for this second chance and he has nothing to lose. Bermane Stiverne is the only opponent that Deontay hasn’t knocked out among his professional opponents. Deontay wants to fix that and Stiverne is looking to throw a wrench into Wilder’s dream of heavyweight unification.
Wilder (38-0, 37 Kos) dethroned defending champion Stiverne in January 2015 via unanimous decision in what was the promising challenger’s toughest fight to date. Með sigri, Wilder became the first American heavyweight champion in nearly a decade and he has gone on to defend the title five times. Stiverne (25-2-1, 21 Kos) remains the only Wilder opponent to go the distance with the hard-hitting Tuscaloosa, Ala., native who has knocked out every other professional opponent on his long resume.
Dominic Breazeale (18-1, 16 Kos), who lives in Eastvale, California, is coming off a KO victory over Izu Ugonoh on Febrúar. 25. The 32-year-old Breazeale suffered the only loss of career in a heavyweight championship match against Anthony Joshua in London on June 25, 2016.
Eric Molina (26-4, 19 Kos) has twice fought for the heavyweight world championship. In his first title shot the 35-year-old from Weslaco, Texas was knocked out by Deontay Wilder on June 13, 2015. Molina lost via TKO to Anthony Joshua in his next opportunity on Dec. 10, 2016. Molina bounced back with a majority decision victory against Jamal Woods in his last fight on Seven. 2.
Five-division world champion Amanda Serrano (33-1-1, 25 Kos) will be making her fourth appearance at Barclays Center when she defends her super bantamweight world title against Marilyn Hernandez (26-10, 17 Kos). Serrano, who was born in Puerto Rico and lives in Brooklyn, successfully defended her title with a TKO victory over Edina Kiss in her last fight on Júlí 21. Hernandez of Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic scored a TKO victory over Maria Hernandez in her last fight on Jan. 10.

BROOKLYN (Október. 5, 2017) – WBC Heavyweight heimsmeistari Deontay Wilder will defend his title against mandatory challenger Gold Cup á laugardag, Nóvember. 4 live on SHOWTIME in a rematch of their 2015 veröld titill berjast. The event is presented by Premier Boxing Champions from Barclays Center, the home of BROOKLYN BOXING™.
Wilder (38-0, 37 Kos) dethroned defending champion Stiverne in January 2015 via unanimous decision in what was the promising challenger’s toughest fight to date. Með sigri, Wilder became the first American heavyweight champion in nearly a decade and he has gone on to defend the title five times. Stiverne (25-2-1, 21 Kos) remains the only Wilder opponent to go the distance with the hard-hitting Tuscaloosa, Ala., native who has knocked out every other professional opponent on his long resume.
Miðar á viðburð í beinni, sem er kynntur með DiBella Skemmtun og TGB Tilboð, are on sale now and can be purchased at ticketmaster.com, barclayscenter.com eða með því að hringja 800-745-3000. Tickets can also be purchased at the American Express Box Office at Barclays Center. Group afslætti eru í boði með því að hringja 844-BKLYN-GP.
The Nov. 4 main event will be the second heavyweight world championship bout to air live on SHOWTIME on back-to-back Saturdays. Á Október. 28 unified heavyweight world champion Anthony Joshua will meet Kubrat Pulev for Joshua’s IBF and WBA world titles in the main event of a fight card from Cardiff, Wales.
After Wilder vs. Stiverne I, Stiverne was hospitalized at University Medical Center in Las Vegas for severe dehydration and muscle damage, which he claimed affected his performance in his first title defense. Stiverne bounced back with a win over Derric Rossy and has been advocating for a rematch since.
Stiverne asked for it, so he’s going to get it,” Wilder said. “Whatever happens happens. Ask and you shall receive. I’m relieved to be getting my mandatory out of the way. At least now I won’t have to deal with that down the road.
In the first fight, I broke my hand in the third round, and I still dominated. That was a lot of the reason why it went the distance. This time it’s a different day, different time and different fight. This time it won’t end well for him.
Despite all of these obstacles that are thrown in my path, it still will not stop me from reaching my ultimate goal, which is to be the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world.
Stiverne replaces Luis Ortiz, who was pulled from the fight by the WBC á miðvikudag after he failed a VADA anti-doping test.
Stiverne will pay for Luis Ortiz screwing up,” Wilder concluded.
Stiverne was in camp preparing to fight Dominic Breazeale in a heavyweight attraction on the Nóvember. 4 undercard. Now the Haitian-born Las Vegas resident gets a shot at winning back the heavyweight crown he first won with a knockout of Chris Arreola in 2014.
“Ég er tilbúinn, willing and able to seize back my title from Wilder,” Stiverne Dirita. “We all know that Wilder dodged a bullet in the first fight, en ekki í þetta sinn. It was my fault, but I learn from my mistakes. Á Nóvember 4, Wilder will feel my pain.
After defeating Stiverne, Wilder went on to knockout each of his next five challengers including twice as the headliner on SHOWTIME. Wilder-Stiverne II will be the 10th heavyweight world championship fight to air live on SHOWTIME in the last two years as the heavyweight division continues its resurgence.
The show must go on, eins og þeir segja, and Deontay Wilder still plans to put on a show for New York City,” sagði Lou DiBella, President of DiBella Entertainment and promoter of the stacked Nóvember. 4 atburður. “Considering Stiverne’s status as mandatory challenger, he was always going to be a roadblock in Deontay’s quest for heavyweight unification. Now it’s time to see if Deontay can clear that roadblock and continue on his path to becoming the undisputed heavyweight champion and the most recognizable and dominant force in boxing.
Í Showtime CHAMPIONSHIP box samhliða lögun, former welterweight world champion Shawn Porter will battle perennial contender Adrian Granados in a matchup of two all-action fighters. In the opening bout of the three-fight telecast beginning at 9 p.m. OG/6 p.m. PT, unbeaten contender Sergey Lipinets will take on Akihiro Kondo for the vacant IBF Junior Welterweight World Championship.

Deontay Wilder versus Luis Ortiz on Nóvember 4 is the best heavyweight championship fight that was makeable this year, and it will be supported by a tremendous action-packed undercard, televised on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING,” sagði Lou DiBella, Forseti DiBella Skemmtun. “Shawn Porter versus Adrian Granados is an all-action, fan-pleasing fight that will once again have fans at Barclays Center cheering. Sergey Lipinets is a knockout artist and up-and-coming star, attempting to secure his first world title. Auk, SHOWTIME will stream other undercard bouts, including what should be a competitive heavyweight title eliminator between top contenders Bermane Stiverne and Dominic Breazeale.
Adrian Granados is as tough as they come and while he may lack the name recognition of Porter, he should not be overlooked,” said Tom Brown, Forseti TGB Tilboð. “You look at his record and he has five losses, but those five losses are three split decisions and two majority decisions and the two draws that are split draws. This is another huge opportunity for him. Adrian feels he’s paid his dues and belongs in a fight of this magnitude.
The 10-round welterweight match against Granados will be Porter’s fourth fight at Barclays Center. Porter won the welterweight title in his debut at the arena with a unanimous decision over Devon Alexander on Dec. 7, 2013. He lost a narrow decision to unified welterweight champion Keith Thurman in a 2016 Fight of the Year candidate in Brooklyn, and scored a TKO victory against former welterweight champion Andre Berto in his last fight on Apríl 22 in front of the Barclays Center faithful.
The 29-year-old Porter (27-2-1, 17 Kos), who was born in Akron, Ohio and now lives in Las Vegas, remains one of the top welterweights in the division and aims to secure another title shot with a strong performance against Granados.
To be fighting on an undercard for a Deontay Wilder fight is nothing short of excellent,” Said Porter. “I’m excited and looking forward to this opportunity. Against Granados I’m getting into the ring with someone who is very established as an amateur and a professional, has great skills and isn’t going to go in there and lay down. That’s always going to bring out the best in me, and that’s always going to create a very exciting match-up. I know that when I do what I’m planning to do, it’s going to be exciting, entertaining and fill the seats.
Adrian Granados (18-5-2, 12 Kos), Chicago, is accustomed to tough assignments and is known for delivering exciting toe-to-toe action. The 28-year-old has been in with Felix Diaz, losing a close majority decision in 2014, and then unbeaten Amir Imam, whom he defeated by TKO in 2015 when Imam was the top contender at 140-pounds. Granados went punch for punch with Adrien Broner in his last match, but came up just short, losing a split decision in Broner’s hometown of Cincinnati on Febrúar. 18.
I’m very excited to be fighting one of the best welterweights in the world in Shawn Porter,” said Granados. “With our styles it’s going to be fireworks from the opening bell. I was getting ready for a fight in October but when this opportunity arose I jumped at it. It’s a tremendous card to be fighting on with the whole world watching and I’m looking to
put on a great performance.
The 28-year-old Sergey Lipinets (12-0, 10 Kos) is a former kickboxer from Russia who has been waiting nearly a year for his opportunity to fight for a world championship. Lipinets has only been the distance twice in his pro career and he earned his title shot with an eighth-round knockout of Lenny Zappavigna in a title eliminator last December. Í nýjustu byrjunarliðinu, Lipinets stopped Clarence Booth via third-round TKO in March at Barclays Center.
I feel very privileged to be in the position to fight for this world title,” said Lipinets. “I will prepare to face the best possible fighter on that night and I promise that I will not disappoint. The lights will be bright but I have trained too hard not to leave the ring as a world champion.
Akihiro Kondo (29-6-1, 16 Kos) will be making his U.S. debut and fighting for a world championship for the first time when he meets Lipinets for the 140-pound title. The 32-year-old Kondo, of Kazo, Saitama, Japan, has won eight straight matches, including five by stoppage. This will be his third fight this year after he stopped Komsan Polsan in March and defeated Yuya Okazaki by TKO in May.
Former world champion Bermane Stiverne (25-2-1, 21 Kos) is coming off a two-year absence from the ring. Stiverne, 38, became the first Haitian-born boxer to win the heavyweight title when he defeated Chris Arreola in May of 2014. He lost the title to Wilder by decision on January of 2015 í Las Vegas. In his last fight Stiverne, who moved from Canada and now resides in Las Vegas, Nev., defeated Derric Rossy via decision.
The 32-year-old Dominic Breazeale (18-1, 16 Kos) var aðili að 2012 Bandarískt. Olympic boxing team and won his first 17 pro fights before suffering the only loss of his career when he fell short vying for a title against now-unified champion Anthony Joshua in June of 2016. In his last match, the fighter from of Alhambra, Calif. scored a fifth-round TKO victory over Polish heavyweight contender Izu Ugonoh on Febrúar. 25 in a memorable slugfest.

PROMOTER DON KING HOPES WBC WILL DECLARE BERMANE STIVERNE WBC INTERIM HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMP

 

LAS VEGAS (Desember. 17, 2016) – In the aftermath of Saturday’s news that the WBC Interim heavyweight title fight in Russia between former heavyweight champion Gold Cup and top-ranked Alexander Povetkin had been cancelled because Povetkin tested positive for drugs again, Hall of Fame verkefnisstjóri Don “Only In America” King offered a simple solution:

 

Declare his fighter, Stiverne (25-2-1, 21 Kos), Las Vegas, the interim champion.

 

“I’ve had a long-standing respect with the WBC, beginning with Jose Sulaiman and now with his son, Mauricio, who has done an incredible job filling his father’s shoes as WBC president and just got re-elected for four more years. I stand with them and with the WBC for trying to do things the right way and with their organization’s safety procedures in regard to the boxers and the sport.

 

“It’s sad but this guy, Povetkin, has become a total embarrassment. He’s now tested positive in two WBC heavyweight title fights in a row. I’m all for winning and losing fights in the ring, but it’s time for justice to prevail. I don’t know what’s going on over there with so many Russian athletes in so many sports testing positive for drugs, but it has to stop. They cannot be allowed to continue to do things the way they are.

 

“The WBC should declare Stiverne world champion, make him the mandatory for (WBC Heavyweight World Champion Deontay) Wilder, and let’s move on with it. There are a lot of great heavyweight fights that can be made with willing boxers who don’t break the rules every fight.

 

“I’m very disappointed for Bermane, who’s now gone through two training camps with nothing to show for it. Why put up all that money for travel and expenses and then have no fight. He was ready to beat Povetkin and regain a part of the WBC title.

 

“And then – worse yetfor them to try and put it on Bermane for not fighting is just ludicrous. They’re taking the victim and trying to set him up as the criminal in this.’’

 

Stiverne pulled out after the WBC withdrew its sanction because Poverkin tested positive for the banned substance Ostarine. WBC President Mauricio Sulaiman revealed the positive test by the Voluntary Anti-Doping Association (VADA) on Saturday morning. Þá, the WBC withdrew its recognition of the fight.

“There’s no reason to fight if the WBC won’t sanction the bout,” said Stiverne, who could have gone through with the bout but without the sanction opted not to. “I’m very disappointed in the actions of Povetkin. I’ve been training for months to be victorious.

“To wake up the day of the fight, have breakfast, take a nap and then find out he tested positive is the worst possible situation.”

This is the second time in seven months Povetkin (30-1-0, 22 Kos) has tested positive for a banned substance. He tested positive for Meldonium ahead of a scheduled May bout with Wilder, cancelling that fight.

If it had transpired, the winner of the fight for the WBC interim heavyweight title would have become the mandatory challenger to Wilder. Stiverne lost the WBC title to Wilder on a 12-round decision on Jan. 15, 2015. He’s the only fighter to go the distance with Wilder.

Press Conference Quotes; Mánudagur, Jan. 19, á MGM Grand

LAS VEGAS (Jan. 19, 2015) - Tvær nætur eftir að hafa verið lagður inn á sjúkrahús eftir tap hans til ósigraður Challenger Deontay Wilder á Showtime® frá MGM Grand Garden Arena, former WBC Heavyweight Champion Gold Cup, Hall hans Frægð verkefnisstjóri, Don King, og þjálfari hans, Don House, hýst á blaðamannafundi seint í dag á MGM Grand.

 

Hér er það sem þeir höfðu að segja:

 

Forgöngumaður DON KING

 

"Við kölluð þennan fréttamannafund því Bermane við sáum á laugardag nótt var ekki Bermane við vitum öll. Deontay Wilder gerði mjög gott starf; þetta er ekki blaðamannafundi eftir afsökun, það er fyrir því. Læknarnir á sjúkrahúsi í UMC sagði að hann hefði alvarlega ræða ofþornun. Vöðvarnir hans voru ekki að virka og þeir töldu að hann hefði blóð í þvagi hans, svo þeir tóku nokkur próf og hélt honum á sjúkrahúsi þar í morgun.

"Við viljum að fagna Deontay Wilder fyrir að gera starf sitt, en sá maður fyrir honum var fatlaður og ekki að gera starf sitt, en það ætti ekki að taka neitt frá sigur hans. Deontay gerðar og did a mikill starf. Það er óheppilegt, en Bermane verður að gera það annar dagur. Vitandi meistari Við höfum í Deontay hefur svo eloquently fram að hann muni taka á neinn, Ég er viss um án equivocation hann myndi veita vera enn með alvöru Bermane en maðurinn sem var fatlaður í hring, ekki taka í burtu sigur hann hafði og hvernig hann shined.

"Við lofum Deontay og vona að hann getur verið meistari nógu lengi til þar sem við getum haft vera enn á 'Til baka í Glory."

"Rétt eins og mikill her okkar, þegar þeir fá slegnir niður, þeir fá upp aftur. Jafnvel með alvarlega vessaþurrð Bermane hans er enn stóð þar í 12 umferðir.

"Við viljum þakka Richard Sturm, Forseti MGM Grand skemmtun og Stephen Espinoza með Showtime Boxing fyrir að spila stóran þátt í að fá þetta forrit saman. Við fögnum bæði starfsfólk okkar og MGM starfsfólki fyrir að gera lofsvert starf til að gera þetta gerast. Andi fyrir 'Til baka í Glory' var mikil. Við höfðum mikla kort með Amir Imam í baráttunni í nótt, fá slegnir niður og komast aftur upp. Allar átök voru óvenjulegur. Það var mjög skemmtilegt kvöld á box fyrir stuðningsmennina og það er það sem við erum í raun um.

"Don House svo eloquently fram heilsa Bermane er svo mikilvægt svo þegar ég fann út að hann var á sjúkrahúsi, Ég fór að vera þar deginum með honum vegna þess að yfirleitt erum við að senda bara þá á spítalann til að fá köflóttur út, en þeir ákváðu að halda honum. Þegar þeir ákváðu að halda honum, Ég þurfti að komast yfir það og sjá bardagamaður minn. The staff was frábær og mjög miskunni mér og mjög endanlega um hvað gæti verið rangt og rannsaka alla þætti. Þeir sögðu að hann er heilbrigður og ætti að taka burt á mánuði eða svo til að fá smá hvíld og þá fá að vinna til að undirbúa endurkomu hans til dýrðar og endurheimt þungavigtar kóróna sem er nú haldin með miklu meistari heitir Deontay Wilder. "

Gold Cup

 

"Ég vil biðjast afsökunar fyrir að hafa ekki að gera eftir berjast blaðamannafundi. Því miður var ég ekki fær um að framkvæma í baráttunni eins og ég vildi vegna alvarlega ofþornun og vöðvaskemmdum. Ég vissi ekki að það var að alvarlegt fyrr en þeir sögðu mér. Ég hefði getað dáið af því. Ég er fús til að vera bara sjálfur, walk and talk again. Thank God for this, það er í raun það sem skiptir mig til að vera heilbrigð núna.

"Ég vissi ekki alvarleika þess Laugardagur nótt. ÉG var fær til að gefa fólki góð sýning, 12 umferðir box. Ef ég þurfti að gera það aftur ég myndi gera það aftur. Þetta er ekki endirinn fyrir mig. Ég mun gefa það a par vikum og þá fá aftur til vinnu. Ég er með framtíðarsýn fyrir þetta, en núna er það bara á hlé. Það er bara spurning um tíma áður en ég mun komast aftur á fætur og ganga aftur. Þegar það kemur að heilsu mína, Ég hef verið útskrifaður af spítalanum. Þeir myndu ekki láta mig fara fyrr en ég var nægilega vökva. Ég er þakklátur. Þakka þér að verkefnisstjóra minn og þjálfari, allir sem hafa á móti mér.

"Til að aðdáendum mínum, Ég afsökunar fyrir að vera ekki fær um að framkvæma eins Bermane yfirleitt er. Ég veit að fólk sem raunverulega þekkja mig, vita hvernig ég berjast. Síðasta berjast minn með Chris Arreola, Ég gaf þér góð sýning. Það er óheppilegt að ég gat ekki gert það sem ég vildi gera með baráttu mína við Deontay Wilder. Ég vil hamingju hann, hann barist góðu baráttunni. Vonandi einhvers staðar í framtíðinni munum við hittast aftur.

"Takk allir fyrir að koma út á blaðamannafundi, Ég er aftur á fætur 100 prósent núna. Ég þarf bara nokkrar vikur eða mánuði hvíld til að vera aftur þar sem ég var horfið. "

DON HOUSE, Trainer Stiverne er

"Þakka ykkur fyrir að koma út. Það mikilvægasta er að Bermane er í lagi. Það er helsta áhyggjuefni mitt. Ég tók eftir einhvers staðar í baráttunni, sennilega um þriðja eða fjórða umferð, eitthvað var ekki rétt. Jafnvel þótt hann sagði mér að hann væri í lagi, við vitum öll Bermane. Ég huga ekki að missa berjast, en ég vissi eitthvað var ekki rétt, svo ég var mjög áhyggjufullur. Around níunda eða 10 umferð ég var að hugsa að hætta í baráttunni vegna þess að þú þarft ekki að halda áfram, en hann vildi halda áfram að berjast.

"Þú varst ekki sjá Bermane, þú sást kannski 10-15 prósent af Bermane. Ég trúi í raun og virkilega fannst þetta ætti að hafa verið ágætis berjast fyrir Bermane, en myndi endast fjórum umferðir eða minna vegna máttur hans og hraða. Við vanmetin hann aldrei. Við æfðum eins og hann var að berjast King Kong. Ég þjálfa hvert bardagamaður svona, vanmeta enginn. En Laugardagurnótt, fengum við 15 prósent af Bermane.

"Við erum að fara að líta til baka, sjá hvað við gerðum rangt, hvernig við getum gert hlutina betri, hvað við ættum að hafa gert. Við munum taka a líta á hvernig vökvatap gæti hafa gerst. Við munum taka a líta á baráttunni og sumir af þeim hlutum sem við gerðum í þjálfun og finna út hvað við gerðum rangt. "

LAS VEGAS (Jan. 17, 2015) – Og nýja WBC Heavyweight heimsmeistari…

 

Ameríka hefur loksins þungavigtar heimsmeistari sína sem Alabama er Deontay Wilder dethroned verja meistari Gold Cup með samhljóða ákvörðun (118-109, 119-108, 120-107) Laugardagur á Showtime® frá MGM Grand Garden Arena í Las Vegas.

 

Wilder (33-0, 32 Kos), sem hafði aldrei barist framhjá fjórðu umferð og hafði slegið út alla 32 faglega andstæðinga sína, boxed brilliantly behind a stellar jab to become the first U.S.-born heavyweight champion in nearly a decade. The towering 6-foot-7 Tuscaloosa native capitalized on his reach advantage, jabbing stöðugt að setja upp öflugt beina rétt.

 

Berjast á Hall of Famer Muhammad Ali er 73Rd afmæli, Wilder varð fyrsta undefeated American þungavigtar meistari síðan Riddick Bowe í 1992 og fyrsta American meistari frá Shannon Briggs vann kórónu í 2006.

 

“Ég er bara spennt og fús til að koma þessu belti aftur til Ameríku,” Wilder said. “Það er að fara að þýða mikið. I think I answered a lot of questions tonight. We knew we could go 12 umferðir. We knew we could take a punch. We knew we could do it.

 

Stefnir í fyrsta þungavigtar titil baráttunni í MGM Grand frá frægi Mike Tyson-Evander Holyfield eyra bit í 1997, voru spurningar box innherja ef Wilder, sem hafði aldrei verið sannarlega prófað, gæti séð kraft a sannur þungavigtar og síðast í síðari lotum. But Wilder answered those questions with a disciplined game plan, lending meira en tvöfalt samtals kýla og henda 420 Jabs til Stiverne er 139.

 

When I saw he could take a great punch we knew we were in for the long run. Twelve rounds is nothing. I want to bring excitement back to the heavyweight division. Whoever is ready, Ég er tilbúinn.”

 

Stiverne (24-2-1, 21 Kos) var fær skjögra Wilder með nokkrum skot, but he did not throw enough jabs or cut off the ring effectively. Wilder was allowed to circle the ring and pop his jab at will. Stiverne landed just 39 Jabs samanborið við Wilder er 120.

 

“Það var ekki nótt minn,” Stiverne Dirita. “Ég fann 100 prósent áður baráttunni en þegar ég fékk í hringnum sem ég gat ekki skera hringinn, I couldn’t move my head like I usually do. Hvað get ég sagt? Congrats to him.

 

I knew I was trying to throw combos of four or five punches and I could only throw two of them. I just felt like I was flat in the ring. What I know I could do I didn’t do. I just have to go back and learn from my mistakes and find out what happened tonight.

 

WBC Super Bantamweight heimsmeistari Leo Santa Cruz varði kóróna hans í fjórða sinn með áttunda umferð TKO Jesú Ruiz og eftirmála kallaði náungi meistarar Abner Hryssur og Guillermo Rigondeaux í samstarfi lögun af Showtime Championship Boxing.

 

The snemma umferðir voru nálægt og samkeppnishæf og Ruiz, þungur lítilmagni, seemed to be a tougher test than he looked on paper. But it was clear that Santa Cruz was landing the cleaner shaper punches. The former bantamweight world champion landed some meaningful shots and had Ruiz in trouble in the seventh and, í fyrsta skipti, það virtist sem hann gæti lokið Ruiz.

 

Santa Cruz (29-0-1, 17 Kos) kom út logi í áttunda, landed a big right cross to kick off the round and continued to tee-off on the challenger. In trouble against the ropes and not fighting back, Dómarinn Kenny BAYLESS hljóp inn og stöðvaði bardagann með Ruiz (32-6-5, 21 Kos) enn á fótum hans á :29 of the eighth round. The champion landed 43 prósent af heildar kýla hans og næstum 50 prósent af orku högg hans, en lending glæsilega 73 máttur skot að líkamanum.

 

“Eins og ég bjóst við, það var stríð,” Santa Cruz said. “He came prepared. We hurt him and we didn’t let the chance go away. We kept going after him and we stopped him. I hurt him with the right hand. I knew he was hurt so I went after him. I knew Kenny Bayless would stop it because he wasn’t throwing punches.

 

I want the best and I want to please the fans. Ég vil (Abner) Mæður, Ég vil (Bill) Rigondeaux. Vonandi næst barátta okkar er gegn einum af þeim bestu.”

 

Ruiz, sem aðeins lenti 22 prósent af heildar kýla hans, ósammála með stöðvun.

 

“Ég vil vera enn,” Ruiz sagði. “Ég finn ekki þeir ættu að hafa hætt að berjast, but I have to accept it. But I’m fine. Líttu á mig – Ég er ekki skera. Hann vissi ekki einu sinni falla mig.”

 

Í opnun lota af Showtime CHAMPIONSHIP Hnefaleikar útsending, undefeated frábær léttur Amir I floored Fidel Maldonado Jr. fjórum sinnum og skoraði fimmta umferð tæknilegt rothögg í brawl sem lögun fimm samtals knockdowns.

 

Maldonado var uppflettingar bardagamaður, en Imam floored Albuquerque búsettir í fjórða sinn á ferli sínum með stuttum rétt bara smá stund áður en bjallan hringdi til enda annað. Þá, í byrjun frambjóðandi fyrir umferð ársins sem lögun þrjár knockdowns, Maldonado brást við með því að berja niður Imam í fyrsta skipti á ferli sínum 30 seconds into the third with a solid straight left. Imam bounced back and sent Maldonado to the canvas with a huge right with 20 sekúndur eftir í þriðja og svo aftur með beinni hægri sem hluti af grimmur árás með minna en 10 sekúndur eftir í umferð.

 

Aðgerðin áfram og Imam (16-0, 14 Kos) floored Maldonado for the fourth time in the fight with a short right followed by a left hook just seconds before the bell to close the fifth. Maldonado (19-3, 16 Kos) stóð upp en var vagg og dómarinn Robert Byrd stöðvaður keppnina á 2:59. Imam’s power was the difference, lending 50 prósent af orku skot hans.

 

“Það var erfitt knockdown, en kappar fá upp og klára berjast hart og það er það sem ég gerði,” Imam sagði. “I just had to stay composed and do what I had to do. “I started timing him. When I hit him with that good shot he was out. I could see it. That was the rope-a-dope. I was swinging for the fences and that was it, barn.

 

I’m ready for the title shot right now. I just want to fight for the title.

 

Fjórir af þeim fimm knockdowns kom með minna en 30 seconds left in each round. Eftir að berjast, Maldonado viðurkenndi að hann ekki einfaldlega að verja sig þegar umferðir voru vinda ofan.

 

“Ég bara lenti með a par af kýla,” Maldonado said. “Hann hélt composure hans og hann kom fram með W. I just got caught. I got lazy in there and he capitalized. He was the better man tonight. I got kind of bored at the end of the rounds and I paid for it.

 

Í helstu atburði á Showtime Hnefaleikar á Sho Extreme, undefeated ljós þungavigtar horfurVyacheslav Shabranskyy (12-0, 10 Kos) haldið fullkomna met sitt ósnortinn með rækilega sannfærandi TKO sigur Garrett Wilson (13-9-1, 7 Kos).

 

Shabranskyy haldið fjarlægð hans og var mjög áhrifarík; lending 48 prósent af krafti skot hans og kastaði meira en 60 punches in each round. The Ukrainian prospect scored a knockdown with a right in the closing seconds of the second and another with a clean right in the final 10 sekúndur áttunda, sending Wilson face first to the canvas. Wilson beat the count but was saved by the bell as Shabranskyy unloaded more than a dozen consecutive punches.

 

The varanlegur Wilson tók gríðarlega högg í níunda og virðist ekki lenda í bolla, þvingunar dómarann ​​Jay Nady að stöðva bardagann eftir níunda á tillögu ringside læknis.

 

Í opnun lota í Sho EXTREME útsending, þungavigtar Eric Molina (23-2, 17 Kos) ósigur Raphael Zumbano (32-9-1, 25 Kos) um áttunda umferð TKO í einhliða mál.
