Mae gostyngiadau grŵp ar gael trwy ffonio 516-231-4848.
Here is what the fighters had to say Thursday from The Palm West Side in Manhattan:
PETER QUILLIN
“Awst 4 is a big day. It’s been a long time since I fought in New York and I’m ready to showcase my talents here once again.
“I’ve been away from my family for the last two years training in California with Virgil Hunter. Basically I made the decision to come back home and be closer to my family. Now being home, I’m learning how to adjust my methods and my camp around my family.
“I think this is a new chapter in my life. J’Leon Love is trying to showcase and do something memorable against me. He’s trying to get a name on his record because he desperately needs one.
“We can make it a dog fight. I wouldn’t say that J’Leon likes to be in a dog fight, he’s more of a classical boxer. He likes to be on his legs, he likes to pop the jab out and he likes to move around the ring. So let’s see who comes and brings their better stuff that night. I want to make it a dog fight.
“Love definitely wanted this fight, but it’s a perfect fight for me. I hope that he brings his very best because I’m definitely going to bring that on my behalf.
“I’m just planning to go out there and be ‘Kid Chocolate’. I’ve got some good people around me. I’m training in Brooklyn with Aureliano Sosa, who has been pushing me to the max. Awst 4 for me is really about J’Leon being delivered into my hands and giving the fans a good showcase.”
Luis COLLAZO
“Yn olaf, it’s been so long. Rwy'n ddiolchgar am y cyfle hwn. I know that I need to make the most of each opportunity I get at this point, and I feel like I’ve definitely done that in all my recent fights. Awst 4 will be another night for me to show how much I still have left.
“It’s amazing to be able to perform at this venue with me being from New York. The people, the atmosphere, the fans and how they react to the fights, it’s phenomenal. Now it’s my turn to give it back to my boxing fans and entertain them.
“Rwy'n teimlo 100 percent physically and am geared to be that way on fight night. I know that I have a tough, young opponent who needs this win as badly as I do. I’m going to show him what this sport is all about.
“I just want that win, if the knockout comes we’ll take it. But the main thing is going out there get the win and looking good while I’m doing it.”
ALICIA NAPOLEON
“Im 'yn disgwyl ymladd da. I know that Hannah Rankin is credible fighter and she’s a tough girl with a WBC Silver belt. I have the WBA World Title and I know she’s coming to take it. She’s a standup opponent, and I’m sure she’s going to be ready to give it her all that night just like I will.
“I’m a Long Island girl born and raised, so there’s nobody better to make history that night than myself. I’m ready to be the first female to fight in that arena. It’s such a beautiful feeling, I’m so excited that it’s me who is getting this opportunity, with so much to follow.
“The future is female. That doesn’t mean that were taking anything away from the males, it just means that it’s time for them to share the stage. We have a lot to offer, and we have a whole different audience and crowd to bring to boxing.
“It’s awesome to see women fighters starting to climb the ladder and I want to see more of us. It’s not about that one female fighter, it’s about the multitude of us. There is power in numbers, and we need to be shown. You’ll be surprised how quickly the crowd will just attract to the women, and we’ll automatically be bringing a bigger base than they ever brought before.”
LOU DIBELLA, Llywydd DiBella Adloniant
“Peter Quillin knows what’s at stake August 4 and so does J’Leon Love. It’s a must-win fight for both guys, which usually equals a fun fight for the fans.
“This card has so much talent. You have Marcus Browne back in the ring and Luis Collazo back against a good opponent. Mwy, Alicia Napoleon “Yr Ymerodres”, the Long Island Female World Champion is in there with a really good fighter in Hannah Rankin. She’s the biggest fighter in Scotland. That’s a real quality women’s fight between two recognizable women fighters.
“It’s a stacked card with solid fights from top to bottom. It should be a really good night of boxing on television, and a great night of fights for Long Island.”

"Ar Gorffennaf 28, I’m going to show everyone what they’ve been sleeping on & why I’m a world champion," – Pasg
Unbeaten Lightweight World Champion Faces Mikey Garcia Dydd Sadwrn, Gorffennaf 28Live on SHOWTIME from STAPLES Center in Los Angeles & Cyflwynir gan Hyrwyddwyr Bocsio Premier
Cliciwch YMA ar gyfer Lluniau gan Jose Pineiro / SHOWTIME
TRAETH PALM GORLLEWIN, FL. (Gorffennaf 19, 2018) – IBF Lightweight World Champion Robert Jr Pasg. has made the most of his inaugural training camp with Kevin Cunningham and will look to bring that same level of focus to the ring when he challenges WBC Lightweight World Champion Mikey Garcia Dydd Sadwrn, Gorffennaf 28 live on SHOWTIME from STAPLES Center in Los Angeles in an event presented by Premier Boxing Champions.
“I decided to go to Florida for a different environment than I usually trained in,” said Easter, a Toledo-native who had trained in his hometown for much of his pro career. “I needed to be taken out of my comfort zone. At home, I was focused on too many other things. Coming to West Palm Beach has allowed me to focus on nothing but myself and boxing.”
Easter saw what Cunningham had done for his close friends Adrien Broner and Gervonta Davis, who both trained with Cunningham leading into April 21 fights on SHOWTIME that saw Broner battle to an entertaining draw against Jessie Vargas and Davis capture a second world title with a spectacular knockout of Jesus Cuellar.
“I was with Adrien Broner and Gervonta Davis every step of the way during training camp with Kevin Cunningham earlier this year,” said Easter. “I saw for myself that it was something I needed to do. I talked with my dad about getting away from the distractions and we agreed this was the right move.”
Easter burst onto the scene in 2016 with a dominant knockout of former champion Argenis Mendez before beating Richard Commey later that year in an entertaining battle to capture the lightweight belt. Easter’s last two defenses however have seen him narrowly escape with decision victories, something the unbeaten champion believes won’t be a factor on July 28.
“People are paying attention to my last couple of fights when I wasn’t using my height and reach,” said Easter. “I can improve on that by taking it back to what I had been doing before. I was knocking people out fight after fight.
“If you’re looking at just my last two fights, you aren’t giving me credit for everything I bring to the table. I faced two tough southpaws recently but on July 28 I’m going to show everyone what they’ve been sleeping on and why I’m a world champion.”
The 27-year-old Easter will now step up to take on one of boxing’s pound-for-pound best in four-division world champion Mikey Garcia. For Easter, this is a fight that he’s had on his mind and one that can put him into the top echelon of the sport.
“I’ve always wanted to fight the best in my weight class and now I have my chance to unify,” said Easter. “I know that Mikey is going to fight his fight and look to counter. He wants to wait for you to make a mistake so he can take advantage.
“What I have to do is go in there and impose my attributes on him. My height and reach are my advantages, but also my speed and power. I just have to combine all that and focus on my footwork.”
Although Easter will be fighting in Garcia’s hometown of Los Angeles, he has no plans to let the partisan crowd effect his focus as he looks for his biggest pro win in the same building where he made his professional debut.
“It doesn’t matter to me where we fight,” said Easter. “None of the fans can help him fight. It’s only about me and him in that ring together.
“My first pro fight was at STAPLES Center and even though it was early on an undercard, I still felt like there were 10,000 fans watching me. I just fought my fight. It’s all about staying focused. There will be no excuses on July 28.”
Mae tocynnau ar gyfer y digwyddiad yn fyw, sy'n cael ei hyrwyddo gan Ringstar Chwaraeon a TGB Promotions, begin at $50, yn ogystal â ffioedd perthnasol, ac ar werth yn awr. Er mwyn prynu tocynnau, visit AXS.com.
The three-fight SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast (10 p.m. ET / 7 p.m. PT) will also see Cuban heavyweight slugger Luis “The Real King Kong” Ortiz returning to action to face former title challenger Razvan Cojanu in a 10-round bout and unbeaten super lightweight contender Mario “El Azteca” Barrios cymryd ar caled-taro Jose Rufeinig in a 10-round showdown.

WORCESTER, Offeren. (Gorffennaf 19, 2018) – Hyrwyddiadau ên gwenithfaen (GCP) and Rivera Promotions Entertainment (RPE) hosted a press conference yesterday at The Ballot Box in Worcester, Massachusetts, to make a major announcement, as well as introduce local fighters on the August 17fedpro boxing card at The Palladium in Worcester.
Tri-amser, bencampwr byd dau-adran “Y Gallo” Jose Antonio Rivera (41-6-1, 24 Kos) is making his return in the “Making History” prif ddigwyddiad, in large part because he wanted to fight on the same card as his son, A.J. Rivera, who was to become the first pro boxer who was born with Spina Bifida. A.J., who is a rising matchmaker in New England, was unable to get medically cleared in time and he will not be fighting Aug. 17.
The event has been renamed, “Homecoming”, because six of the competing fighters, including Jose Antonio Rivera, live in Worcester.
“Yn anffodus,” announced promoter Chuck Shearns, who co-promotes Granite Chin Promotions with Nodweddion Chris, “A.J. isn’t fighting on this show because he couldn’t get medically cleared in time.”
“I trained hard and was within five or six pounds of my contract weight,” a disappointed A.J. Esboniodd Rivera. “I passed all of the medical tests except for the CATSCAN. I fought the doctor a little and said I wanted a second opinion. Those results won’t be in time, so I can’t fight on this card.”
“The reason I’m coming back was to make history with my son,” Jose Antonio Rivera added. “We had talked about it a long time but, yn anffodus, it wasn’t meant to be for A.J. for this card. He’s already part of history already as the only fighter born with Spina Bifida who fought as an amateur. I feel bad, but everything happens for a reason and as a father, my son’s safety always comes first. He will continue to be an important part of our team to make our company a success. People are thrown curveballs in life like this and we’ve regrouped to turn this into a positive. We’re still fighting for the cause (Spina Bifida).”
Nawr 45 mlwydd oed, Rivera has already lost more than 30 bunnoedd, and he is within eight of his contracted weight for his eight-round fight against Ruben “Modern Day Warrior” Galvan (27-26-4, 10 Kos).
Yn 1997, Rivera captured the International Boxing Organization (IBO) World welterweight title, rhoi'r gorau i Gilberto Flores yn yr ail rownd. Six years later, he traveled to Germany to take on undefeated, ffefryn tref enedigol Michel Trabant (38-0) for the vacant World Boxing Association (WBA) World Welterweight Championship, in which Rivera won a 12-round decision and the belt.
Dwy ymladd yn ddiweddarach, in front of nearly 10,000 hometown fans in Worcester, Rivera won a 12-round unanimous decision in 2006 over defending champion Alejandro Garcia (25-1) for the WBA World super welterweight title.
Canol Kendrick Ball, Jr. (9-1-2, 6 Kos) and junior middleweight Khiary Gray (15-4, 11 Kos), both promoted by CES Boxing, will be making their pro debuts at home in Worcester. Ball faces an opponent to be determined in the six-round co-featured event, while Gray (15-4, 11 Kos) yn cyfarfod Antonio Chaves Fernandez (9-33, 4 Kos), o Brockton, MA, also in a six rounder.
Undefeated light heavyweight prospect Richard “Popeye Y Sailor Man” Rivera (8-0, 7 Kos), fighting out of Hartford, CT, is slated to fight in a six-round bout vs. I'w drefnu, as well as his stable mate, two-time New England Golden Gloves champion “Yr Un Dewisedig” Sharad Collier (1-0, 1 KO), who takes on his Mexican opponent, Emmanuel “Pollo” Valadez (5-4, 4 Kos), in a four-round match.
Also scheduled to fight on the undercard in four-round bouts are Springfield, MA pwysau welter Jose Angel “KO” Ortiz Jose Angel “KO” Ortiz (4-13-1, 1 KO) vs. Seth Basler (0-8) and pro-debuting featherweight Joshua Orta vs. Caerwrangon Edwin Rosado (1-7-1, 1 KO), Southbridge, MA pwysau welter Wilfredo “y Sucaro” Pagan (4-0, 2 Kos) vs. I'w drefnu, Worcester lightweight Francisco Irizarry (4-0, 2 Kos) vs. I'w drefnu, Worcester’s pro-debuting lightweight Eslih Owusu.vs. Mecsicanaidd Engelberto “Guarura” Valenzuela (11-14 (3 Kos).
Mae'r holl ymladd a diffoddwyr yn destun newid.
Tocynnau, Pris $75.00 (ringside) ac $45.00 (mynediad cyffredinol), ar werth ac ar gael i'w prynu am www.ThePalladium.net neu y swyddfa docynnau Palladium (mynediad cyffredinol yn unig), neu drwy gysylltu â Jose Rivera (elgallojar@gmail.com/508.864.6954), AJ Rivera (anthoneerivera@gmail.com/774.272.2269) neu unrhyw un o'r diffoddwyr.

DYFYNIADAU CYNHADLEDD I'R WASG
Joe Antonio Rivera: “I want to thank everybody for coming. Tomorrow is four weeks to the weigh in. It’s an important date because fighting is easy, making weight isn’t. I want to thank Granite Chin Promotions
“Four Worcester fighters (Ball, Gray, Irizarry and Owusu) on this card have never fought here. It’s huge having Kendrick and Khiary on this card and I’d like to thank CES Boxing for allowing them to fight here. I’m proud of Kendrick and Khiary and excited to have them fighting on this show. Chuck and Granite Chin are running this show, I’m only focused on my opponent.
“I’m excited to have an opponent who is coming to fight. He’s my third opponent, but that’s part of boxing. Im 'yn ymarfer yn galed, passed my medicals, and it’s like I’m hungry again. I haven’t fought in years, but I’ve taken good care of my body. I didn’t visualize doing this at 45. I’ve also heard that, after August 17fed, there’s a possibility of a title for me by the end of this year.”
Chuck Shearns (GCP co-promoter): “I’m honored to be involved in this show. Jose and I have been friends for years. Months ago, this all started with a text conversation (Chuck, Jose and A.J.). A week later, it started getting serious, and then we had Jose and A.J. fighting on this card. Yn anffodus, A.J. isn’t fighting on this card, but the show will go on.”
Jimmy Burchfield (CES promoter): “What’s important is that Jose Antonio Rivera is fighting on this card and that’s why I’m allowing ‘Pepper’ (Ball) and Khiary to fight on this card. I’ve had a good relationship with Chuck and I’ve known Jose and A.J., who worked for me, for a long time. Nothing was happening in Worcester boxing for years, until Jose and A.J. started promoting here, but Worcester has always been a good fight town. All the fighters here will be proud of your victory. This is beautiful! They’ve been around him and know what he’s accomplished in life. Jose has never abused his body, he’s taken good care of himself.
“We (CES Boxing) had an event scheduled August 17fed at Twin River (Lincoln, RI), but we moved from that date, and now everything is focused August 17fed on Worcester. How could I not have my Worcester fighters on Jose Rivera’s comeback card? ‘Pepper’ and Khiary really wanted to fight on this card. These kids (fighters seated at head table) look up to Jose for what he’s done and in life and his comeback is a really big story. I know what ‘Pepper” and Khiary are going to do and I know what Jose is going to do because he’s a veteran. I believe this will be a sell out!”
Kendrick Ball, Jr: “I want to thank my promoter, Jimmy Burchfield, for giving me the okay to fight on this card. I also want to thank Granite Chin Promotions and Rivera Promotions Entertainment. I’ve waited for this a long time. This fight will give me a chance to redeem myself and show why I’m the next great middleweight to come out of Worcester. I’m ready to get it on.”
Khiary Gray: “I want to thank Rivera Promotions Entertainment, CES Boxing and Granite Chin Promotions for giving me a chance to fight at home for the first time. This is a rematch for me. I stopped him in the first round, but there was some controversy. I know he’s coming to fight.”
Eslih Owusi: “I just graduated from high school and I wasn’t going to turn pro until after that. Fighting as a pro will be much more exciting than in the amateurs.”
Jose Angel Ortiz: “Rwy'n teimlo'n gyffrous iawn. I haven’t fought in two years. I was supposed to return before, but things didn’t work out. I never left boxing because I’m in the gym all the time working out or training other fighters. Jose and I are both in our forties. We’re going to show everybody that we can still fight.”
Edwin Rosado: “I will try and put on the best show I can.”
Joshua Orta: “I’m very happy about my first pro fight. I’ve dreamed of this day. Everybody is going to see an exciting card. I love this sport and always train hard.”

BETH: SHOWTIME Sports provides a glimpse into the life and training camp of Philadelphia’s Jaron Ennis as he prepares to face fellow undefeated welterweight prospect Armando Alvarez in the main event of ShoBox: Y Genhedlaeth Newydd hwn Dydd Gwener, Gorffennaf 20, byw ar Showtime yn 10 p.m. ET / PT from WinnaVegas Casino in Sloan, Iowa.
Ennis (20-0, 18 Kos), who has knocked out 10 consecutive opponents, yn gwneud ei ShoBox debut against the 28-year-old Alvarez (18-0, 12 Kos) in the 10-round main event of a three-fight telecast featuring six fighters with a combined record of 82-1.
Dim ond 20 mlwydd oed, Ennis trains under the tutelage of his father Derek “Bozy” Ennis Sr., who also trained his other sons Derek Jr. and Farah. The 5-foot-10 former amateur standout will be the third Ennis brother to appear on ShoBox; Derek Jr. appeared on the series in 2007, and Farah faced Badou Jack on the series in 2013.
“Having my Dad as a trainer means everything,” said the youngest Ennis. "Mae e'n 63 years old and he puts in the same work I put in.
“My brothers always tell me to stay focused, it’s my turn now. I’m fighting for my family. I’m putting Philly on my back and I’m ready to show the world my talent.”
Yn y cyd-nodwedd, undefeated lightweight Thomas Mattice (12-0, 10 Kos) returns to Iowa for his second ShoBox appearance of the year when he clashes with former Armenian amateur standout Zhora Hamazaryan (9-0, 6 Kos) mewn pwl o 10-rownd.
Hefyd ar y cerdyn, undefeated super lightweight prospect Montana Love (11-0, 5 Kos) will take on former national amateur champion Kenneth Sims Jr. (12-1, 4 Kos) mewn wyth rownd bout super ysgafn.

LAS VEGAS, NV (Gorffennaf 18, 2018) – Undefeated Las Vegas native, 21-mlwydd oed Damien “Siwgr” Vazquez (14-0, 7 Kos), wants to get in the ring with Rhufeinig “Chocolatito” Gonzalez (46-2, 38 Kos), when he makes his return to the ring, rumored to be on the undercard of Canelo vs. GGG ar Fedi 15, 2018.
Vazquez is the younger brother of former three-time super bantamweight world champion, Israel Vázquez. He’s been making noise in the lower weight classes since he captured the NABF Junior Flyweight Title as a teenager, yn yr oedran 17. Before turning pro, Vazquez compiled an impressive record of (83-3, 46 Kos), unheard of in the amateurs. Vazquez is currently rated WBA #14, putting him in position to land a big fight, possibly a dream bout with Roman Gonzalez.
“If Chocolatito is seeking an opponent for September 15fed, then who better than me,” said Damien Vazquez, who on March 28, 2018, captured the vacant WBC Youth Silver Super-Flyweight Title against Luis Golindano (10-1, 7 Kos). “I think it makes a lot of sense to make this fight because the fight is in Las Vegas, fy hometown, and I’m Mexican. This would make for a classic showdown on Mexican Independence Day in Las Vegas, Mexico vs. Nicaragua, gadewch i ni wneud iddo ddigwydd. It’s time for the new blood to take over.”
Vazquez, sy'n cael ei reoli gan Greg Hannely, o Prince Ranch Bocsio, is trained by former world champions Joel Cassamayor ac Bones Adams. Yn ogystal,, Vazquez owns his own promotional company, siwgr Hyrwyddiadau. His last four bouts have taken place in Aguascalientes, Mecsico, all televised on the local government channel.
“My fanbase has grown tremendously in Mexico, since we’ve been promoting shows in Aguascalientes,” Vazquez continued. “It would be an honor to share the ring with a legend like Gonzalez. I know we would both put on a great show for all the fans who’ll be watching. It will be an explosive fight, y gallaf warantu.”
“Edrychwch, Damien is a world class fighter who is hungry to make a name for himself,” Dywedodd Oscar Vazquez, who runs and operates Sugar Promotions. “If Tom Loeffler makes this fight with us, he will not regret it, that I can assure you.”
“Damien has worked very hard to get where he’s at today,” said manager Greg Hannley. “If this opportunity presents itself, then there’s no doubt in my mind that Damien will step up to the plate and give the fans a great show. He’s a true Mexican warrior, who fights with a lot of heart.”

Here is what the 23-year-old Barrios had to say about his July 28 matchup and more from training camp in Northern California with Virgil Hunter:
On his fight against Jose Roman:
“Roman is a very dangerous fighter with a good record. He’s a tall fighter like myself, so that will be a different challenge for me to overcome.
“There is no doubt he will be my toughest opponent to date. These are the kind of difficult fights I need to win and win convincingly to get to the championship level. I’m going in there on mission July 28 and I’m going to prove I’m ready for a title shot.
“I know he’s motivated going into this fight since he’ll be fighting near his hometown. I’m just going to stick to my game plan and focus on what I must do, and that’s throw hard punches with precise accuracy.”
On his current knockout streak:
“Since I’ve move up to super-lightweight, my body has adjusted to the weight gain, and I’m feeling stronger than I ever have. I’m still growing into my man strength and my power is growing as well. I never go into a fight looking for the knockout, but if I get my opponent hurt, I promise I’ll be looking to take him out.”
On his training camp for this bout:
“I’ve had a tremendous training camp. For the first few weeks I was training in San Antonio at the South Park Boxing Gym with my dad and Rick Nunez laying the groundwork for what we wanted to accomplish.
“Then I finished it off in up in Northern California with Virgil Hunter, who will be guiding my corner. Together we all make a fantastic team. I’ve had tremendous sparring for this fight, my health is good and I’m ready to go.”
On making his SHOWTIME debut:
“I’m really excited to be making my debut on SHOWTIME debut on this card. I always knew I would be fighting on the big stage at some point in my career. Now it’s time to show the world what I’m made of. I’m very grateful to my team for giving me this opportunity.”
