If he has knocked out 21 men before, if he gets it on my chin he will knock me out too.

 

I look at Sefer like I look at Wladimir Klitschko, Deontay懷爾德, Anthony Joshua, anybody. He’s a dangerous puncher.

 

I could have picked someone a lot easier than Sefer; someone to knock out in a round. But I need rounds.”

 

On his Heavyweight rivals:They know the message – I’m back. I don’t ever remember feeling any better than I do now.

 

I feel sharper now, more power. I fell out of love with the game but now the love is thriving, we are back on fire for one another.

 

You’re going to be the best Tyson Fury you have ever seen.”

 

There are no nerves at all. I feel like I have been a goldfish in a tank, trapped and now I am getting released back into the river where I belong. So just put me there and watch me swim.

 

“I don’t ever remember feeling any better than I do now. I feel shaper now, faster than I’ve ever been, more power, I just want it more.

 

“It was a lost relationship, it was like I was married to the game too long and we sort of fell out of love with each other.”

WBC SILVER MIDDLEWEIGHT CHAMPION ROBERTO GARCIA ISN’T AFRAID OF MARTIN MURRAY; “I’M READY TO FIGHT JUNE 23”

迪爾菲爾德海灘, FL (六月 6, 2018)—Martin Murray is one very upset fighter.

Murray was scheduled to fight for the WBO Middleweight Championship at the O2 Arena in London, England on June 23, but champion Billy Joe Saunders has pulled out of the fight because of an injury for a second time.

WBC Silver Middleweight Champion Roberto Garcia has just the cure for the upset Murray.

“I’m not like Saunders,”加西亞說. “I’m not afraid of Murray. I’m willing to risk my title and come to London to fight Murray before his hometown fans. 讓我們繼續!”

Saunders postponed the originally scheduled April 14 fight with Murray because of a alleged hand injury. Now he is pulling out of the June fight because of an alleged hamstring injury.

“My manager, 李霍利迪, informed me today that my promoter, 唐金, has reached out to Warren’s team about making this fight. I have a “have Belt and will Travel” attitude and ready to back it up tomorrow if necessary.

“No more whining about Billy Joe and his excuses. If you want to fight on June 23, then put up or shut up. 否則, then you are just Billy Joe with different excuses.”

‘BULL VS. MATADOR’ MATCH-UP OF SUPER LIGHTWEIGHT PROSPECTS BAKHTIYAR EYUBOV VS. NICHOLAS GIVHAN ADDED TO UNDERCARD OF CLARESSA SHIELDS VS. HANNA GABRIELS IBF & WBA WOMEN’S MIDDLEWEIGHT WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP

欣欣拳擊: SPECIAL EDITION Live At 10 P.M. AND/PT
From Masonic Temple in Detroit, 密歇根州。; 門票現已公開發售

Another exciting battle between well-regarded prospects has been added to the un-televised undercard of Salita Promotions’ “Shields vs. Gabriels” event on Friday, 六月 22, at the Masonic Temple in Detroit.

 

 

 

In a classic “bull vs. matador” match-up, Kalamazoo, Michigan’s Nicholas “King Beamen” Givhan (21-1-1, 11 科斯) will face undefeated Bakhtiyar “Bakha Bullet” Eyubov (13-0, 11 科斯), from Aktjubinsk, 哈薩克斯坦, 以上 10 exciting super-lightweight rounds.

 

 

 

A six-year pro, Nicholas Givhan has had mixed results, 迄今, against stronger opposition. He fought to a draw with France’s 8-1 Freddy Durand in August 2015 and suffered his lone setback against undefeated top contender Ivan Baranchyk in March 2016. Givhan has won five straight fights since then and was last seen scoring a unanimous decision over rugged veteran Agustin Cicero last February. Givhan is a smooth boxer with good instincts in the ring. The 32-year-old stands 5’ 9” and has a 68” reach.

 

 

 

“Training is going great. I’m putting the work in and prepping for the big fight,” said Givhan. “I’m a very good boxer and I’m looking forward to showing off my craft with no mistakes.”

 

 

 

Givhan says he respects Eyubov, but is confident of coming out on top.

 

 

 

“I would say he’s the toughest opponent I’ve faced so far. He comes and keeps coming and coming. He’s a very in-tight fighter and has nice power. It’s hard to say how the fight will go. Real fighters adapt to any style, so I can’t say if his style is made for mine. I just know that whatever he brings, I’ll be able to adapt.”

 

 

 

A six-year pro, Brooklyn-based Eyubov is originally from Aktjubinsk, 哈薩克斯坦. A charismatic showman, Eyubov is a fast-rising prospect who has appeared twice on ShoBox: 新一代. He stopped then 16-2-1 Jared Robinson in three rounds in January 2016 and took an exciting 10-round split decision from veteran Karim Mayfield in August of the same year. He was last seen in January, when an accidental headbutt forced opponent Maurice Chalmers to quit in round one. The fight was ruled a No Contest. The 31-year-old stands 5’ 6” and has a 65.5” reach.

 

 

 

“I look forward to a great fight on June 22. I am the best junior welterweight in the world – a point I will prove it in this fight,” said Eyubov. “I will show my improved skills, strength and power in the ring. I had a great training camp in Brooklyn, 紐約, with my trainers Nirmal Lorick and Keith Hewitt. This is a very important fight for me I plan on making a statement and showing the world that I am the best and hardest punching man in the division.”

 

 

 

Eyubov says he’ll be looking for another knockout on June 22.

 

 

 

“I know Givhan is a strong fighter and is in great shape and coming to win. The fight is in his hometown but that’s no problem. My plan is not to leave it to the judges June 22nd can’t come soon enough!”

 

 

 

“This is a significant crossroads fight with each fighter understanding the upside of victory and the doom of defeat,” said event promoter Dmitriy Salita. I know Bakha is hungrier than ever to win this fight and make a statement to the junior welterweight division that he is ready for the best. This match has all the ingredients of a great fight.”

 

 

 

“Shields vs. Gabriels” will feature two-time Olympic Gold Medalist and current Unified Women’s Super Middleweight Champion Claressa Shields attempting to become a two-division world champion against unified 154-pound champion Hanna Gabriels for the vacant IBF and WBA Women’s Middleweight World Championships.

 

 

 

The main event will be televised live on SHOWTIME BOXING: 特別版本 (10 P.M. ET / PT) and will also feature highlights of Unified Women’s Middleweight Champion Christina Hammer as she defends her WBC & WBO Titles in her U.S. debut against former world champion Tori Nelson.

 

門票活動, 這是由的Salita促銷推廣, 可在 Tick​​etmaster.com or at the Masonic Temple Box Office at (313) 832-7100. VIP tickets are priced at $300, ringside tickets at $125, and remaining tickets at $75, $50 和 $35.

埃德蒙頓, 加拿大 (六月 5, 2018)Canadian boxing fans will have the opportunity to watch the long-awaited return of the“吉普賽國王,undefeated former unified heavyweight world champion 泰森怒 這個星期六 針對 Sefer “真正的交易” 遠征 在10輪的主要事件, airing in Canada exclusively on Super Channel, live from Manchester Arena in Manchester, 英國.
他回來: 憤怒vs. 遠征, presented by Frank Warren’s Queensbury Promotions, will air exclusively on Super Channel across Canada, 開始 2:00 P.M. AND / 11:00 A.M. PT.
We couldn’t be more excited to be bringing this highly anticipated bout marking the return of Tyson Fury to the boxing world, to our viewers,” said Don McDonald, 總裁兼首席執行官, 超級通道. “This is exactly the type of exclusive content that Canadian boxing fans have come to expect from Super Channel Sports and is a welcome addition to our growing catalogue of marquee boxing events.
Perhaps boxing’s most polarizing figure, 憤怒 (25-0, 15 科斯) has been sidelined with mental health issues for the past 2 年半, after shocking the boxing world November 28, 2015, when he defeated future Hall of Famer 弗拉基米爾克里琴科 (64-3, 53 科斯) 通過10輪的一致決定的方式 (116-111, 115-112, 115-112).
6′ 9″ Fury became the undisputed world heavyweight champion, securing the IBF, WBA, WBO, IBO and 午夜凶鈴 冠軍, only to be stripped and/or relinquish his title belts without a single defense.
(L-R) – 在他的最後一戰, Tyson Fury upset Wladimir Klitschko
Canadian boxing fans are more than familiar with Fury, who held his extended training camp in Canada, at Hotel Lac Leamy in Gatineau, prior to his April 20, 2013 fight at famed Madison Square Garden in New York City, in which he stopped multiple world champion 史蒂夫·坎寧安 在第七輪.
I can’t wait to get in there and prove that I’m a better fighter than I’ve ever been,” the charismatic Fury said. “I’m coming into the prime of my career now and I’ve never felt better. I’m fitter, stronger and faster than the Fury of 2015.
It’s going to be a huge night for the City of Manchester (where Fury was born). I’m delighted to be fighting at the iconic Manchester Arena for the first time in my career. I’m promising the fans a special performance to thank them for their loyal support.
遠征, fighting out of Albania, has suffered only one loss during his otherwise perfect 11-year pro boxing career, losing a 10-round decision in 2016 to future WBA heavyweight world champion Manuel Charr (29-4) for the vacant WBA International crown.
This is going to be a hard fight for Fury,” Seferi predicted. “I’m very disciplined and always ready to take on everyone and anyone. This will not be an easy night for him. I’m coming to Manchester to beat one of the boxing legends of the 21ST century.
He is tall and strong, but he won’t be ready for the pressure that I will bring. Two-and-one-half years out of the ring is a long time and nobody knows if he is still the same fighter that dethroned Wladimir Klitschko. I am going to seize the opportunity with both hands.
The 12-round co-feature features local hero, undefeated Brit 特里 “渦輪” Flanagan (33-0, 13 科斯), in his bid to become a two-division world champion, versus unbeaten American 莫里斯 “浩浩蕩盪莫” Hooker (23-0-3, 16 科斯) for the vacant WBO super-lightweight world title.

AND/1:30 P.M. PT.

 

 

 

在開幕回合, 當地的英雄 特里·弗拉納根(Terry Flanagan) (33-0, 13 KO的) will look to become a two-division world champion when he clashes with unbeaten American 莫里斯·胡克(Maurice Hooker) (23-0-3, 16 KO的) for the vacant WBO Junior Welterweight crown. This will be the fourth live streaming boxing event this year on SHOWTIME Sports social media platforms.

ET / PT, delayed in the West Coast) from Staples Center. 在共同特徵, Jermell Charlo will face Austin Trout for the WBC Super Welterweight World Championship.

 

 

 

憤怒 (25-0, 18 科斯), a former WBA, WBO and IBF Heavyweight World Champion will end a two-years-and-seven-months exile from the sport on June 9. Fury has been inactive since outpointing 弗拉基米爾克里琴科 in Dusseldorf in November 2015 due to an injury, personal problems and a doping ban.

 

 

 

“I’m the fittest I’ve ever been,” said Fury, who has teamed up with new trainer Ben Davison. “Timing, reflexes, everything is better than it’s ever been.

Albania’s Seferi (23-1, 21 科斯) is a 39-year-old Switzerland-based cruiserweight who is stepping up in weight and opposition when he faces the 6-foot-9 Fury. Seferi’s sole loss came in 2016 in a heavyweight bout against now-secondary WBA heavyweight champ Manuel Charr.

 

 

 

“This is going to be a hard fight for Fury,” said Seferi. “Two-and-a-half years out of the ring is a long time and nobody knows if he is still the same fighter that dethroned Wladimir Klitschko.”

 

 

 

Flanagan, the first Englishman to earn a lightweight world title, will seek to capture a title in a second weight class just days away from his 29 生日. Hooker, a southpaw from Dallas, Texas and 的ShoBox alum, has been training with 特倫斯·克勞福德. Hooker will look to follow in the footsteps of fellow Dallas resident 埃羅爾·斯彭斯JR., who went to Kell Brook’s hometown of Sheffield, England to capture his first world championship.

Nicaraguan challenging WBO light flyweight champion Tito Acosta

La Batalla, 六月 16
Live on PPV from Puerto Rico

聖胡安, 波多黎各 (六月 4, 2018) – Nicaraguan challenger 卡洛斯 “ChocorroncitoBuitrago hopes his fifth world title shot, 六月 16 against World Boxing Organization Light Flyweight World Champion Tito Acosta, 領銜 “La Batallato air on pay-per-view, live from the Coliseo de Puerto Rico Center in Hato Rey, 波多黎各.

 

La Batalla: Acosta vs. Buitrago is presented by Miguel Cotto Promotions, which is owned and operated by the first Puerto Rican boxer to capture world titles in four different weight classes, 名人堂成員的未來館 米格爾·庫托, and H2 Entertainment, in association with DIRECTV Puerto Rico.

 

 

 

綜合體育媒體將分發 La Batalla: Acosta vs. Buitrago card in the United States on cable, 通過iN需求進行衛星和數字按次計費, 無處不在, DIRECTV, DISH and live-streamed worldwide (excluding Puerto Rico) 在 FITE.TV 應用程式和網站 (www.fite.tv), 開始 9 P.M. AND / 6 P.M. PT, 對於只有一個建議零售價 $34.95.

 

 

 

WBO #12-rated Buitrago (30-3-1, 17 科斯) has had four unsuccessful title challenges, losing three times, along with one draw. He was stopped for the first time in his last fight this past December, by undefeated International Boxing Federation (IBF) Minimumweight World Champion Hiroto Kyoguchi (8-0), in the eighth round of their title fight in Japan.

 

 

 

All three of (圖為左) Buitrago’s career losses have been to world champions, including a pair to Thammanooon Niyomtrong (11-0) 在 2016 和 2014, both by way of 12-round unanimous decisions in Thailand for the Interim WBA title. Buitrago also fought a 12-round split draw in 2013 to then-WBO Minimum World Champion Merlito Sabillo (12-0) in Manila, 菲律賓.

 

 

 

阿科斯塔 (17-1, 17 科斯), who will be making his first world title defense against Buitrago, at home in Puerto Rico, captured the vacant WBO title last December at famed Madison Square Garden, 當他淘汰 Juan Alejo (24-4-1), 墨西哥, 在 10 圓.

 

 

 

 

I’m not at all concerned about fighting Tito Acosta in his country, basically his ‘hood,” Buitrago said. “I’m used to fighting for the world championship in my opponentscountry, just as I did with Merlito Sabillo, but they robbed me of that victory. I’m working consciously and think I’m in great shape to challenge Tito Acosta and seize the championship.

 

 

 

Truth be told, I’m in perfect shape, I will fight a smart fight; if Acosta wants to battle, 就這樣吧, I’m used to battling hard hitters. If he comes into the ring with the intention to battle, I will fight intelligently.

 

 

 

Naturally, the 26-year-old Buitrago believes his experience advantage will be the difference versus Acosta, allowing him to bring the world title back to Nicaragua, like Puerto Rico, a hotbed for boxing.

 

 

 

I think that this being my fifth world title fight, I have experience on my side,” Buitrago added. “I’m relaxed and ready thanks to the training I’ve had in Nicaragua. I’m not sure what Tito Acosta will bring into the ring June 16. I don’t think Tito Acosta is going to learn the necessary moves and techniques in a month. He is a raw boxer who relies only on the strength of his blows. I don’t believe that he will bring anything new into the ring and if they change him, the only thing that will accomplish is confuse him. I’m always emphasising my preparation. I’m coming in smart because I’m bringing the ability to work round for round. My only objective is to bring the world championship to Nicaragua.

 

 

 

I think’s it’s great initiative on Miguel Cotto’s part to promote new boxing talents. I’m grateful to Miguel Cotto and his team for giving me the opportunity to be the one to challenge Tito Acosta in his first world title defense.

 

 

 

I’m a likeable boxer, people like to watch me fight. I’m known for being a smart fighter that, when fighting is needed, I fight, and when boxing is needed, I box. We work on half and short distance, which is why I believe people like to see me fight. All those who attend or watch on pay per view will enjoy a great fight.

This is shaping up to be a fantastic card with the addition of the 122-pound championship fight between Daniel Roman and Moises Flores and former champion Javier Fortuna taking on Adrian Granados in a 140-pound special attraction,” 說湯姆·布朗, TGB促銷總統. “None of these boxers have reverse in their gear box, which promises entertaining battles for the fans at The Star and those watching at home on SHOWTIME.

 

 

 

The 27-year-old Roman (24-2-1, 9 科斯) will be making his second title defense of the WBA 122-pound championship he won with a TKO victory over Shun Kubo last September in Japan. The 28-year-old, 洛杉磯, 加利福尼亞州。, returned to Japan and made his first title defense with a unanimous decision victory over Ryo Matsumoto this February. Roman enters this bout having won 16-straight fights.

 

 

 

Everyone knows I want to fight the best and Flores is right up there,” 說羅馬. “He’s unbeaten for a reason and he’s the number one challenger for my title. 我不會把他掉以輕心. I’m motivated to be great. I’m more focused now than ever before. I’m not going to let Flores, or anyone else take my belt. The plan is simple. Pick him apart round by round just like I’ve done in my other world title fights.

 

 

 

花卉 (25-0, 17 科斯), 瓜達拉哈拉, 哈利斯科, 墨西哥, returns to the ring after a no contest against Guillermo Rigondeaux in a fight that saw Flores hit and knocked out with a shot that was initially called legal, but was eventually ruled to have come after the bell, thus causing the no contest. The 31-year-old scored an impressive win with a decision victory over Oscar Escandon in 2015 that earned him an interim 122-pound title and followed that up with victories over previously once-beaten fighters Luis Emanuel Cusolito and Paulus Ambunda.

 

 

 

I’m going to make Daniel Roman fight me every round until the end,” 弗洛雷斯說. “He’s a good boxer and a counter puncher, but I’m a warrior so I’ll be ready for anything he brings. If he can’t hold up to my power, then he’s going down early. This is a must-win and I’m determined to become a world champion on June 16.

 

 

 

運氣 (33-2-1, 23 科斯) won the super featherweight title with a unanimous decision against Bryan Vasquez in 2015 and enters this fight looking to bounce back from a split-decision loss to lightweight champion Robert Easter, JR. in January on SHOWTIME. The 28-year-old Fortuna, 拉羅馬納, 多明尼加共和國, failed to make weight for the Easter fight and will now seek to challenge in the 140-pound division.

 

 

 

I know that Adrian Granados is a warrior, but this fight breaks in my favor because I am simply the better fighter,” 說財神. “I respect Granadosstyle and I know he surprises a lot of people with his resiliency in the ring. I’m fully prepared to out-box him on fight night. I’m not concerned about moving up in weight either because once we step into the ring, I’ll be the bigger guy.

 

 

 

The 28-year-old Granados (18-6-2, 12 科斯) has garnered a reputation as a boxer willing to accept all challenges and one who always pushed his opponents to the brink. Fighting out of Chicago, he looks to get back on the winning track with a victory over Fortuna. Last year Granados lost a unanimous decision to former welterweight champion Shawn Porter and a split-decision to four-division champion Adrien Broner. Before those two losses, Granados had put together a five-match win streak that included a TKO victory over Amir Imam.

 

 

 

Javier Fortuna is a crafty southpaw, but I’m going to be stronger and better than ever back at 140-pounds,” 格拉納多斯說. “I feel like I can knock out anybody at this weight. After I beat Amir Imam, everyone has been ducking me at this weight class. I’m going to make a statement about where I belong in boxing and give the fans a great show like I always do.

Calderon to Face Crosstown Rival Martinez at Hard Rock Event Center at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & 賭場在好萊塢, 佛羅里達州. 在週五, 七月 6

在週五, 七月 6, 2018, Heavyweight Factory Boxing promoter Kris Lawrence will continue his “Greatest Dark Series” in all of boxing with “Hometown Throwdown,” a night of world-class professional boxing highlighting 10 結束.

 

 

 

Taking place at Hard Rock Event Center at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & 賭場在好萊塢, 佛羅里達州。, the night’s main event will feature a 10-round crosstown rivalry showdown between undefeated Miami-based welterweights Harold “King” Calderon (16-0, 10 科斯) and John David “Pretty Boy” Martinez (10-0, 8 科斯). The pair have decided Miami isn’t big enough for two undefeated 147-lb. fighters and one of them will lose their “0” that night.

 

 

 

The co-main event will be the 10-round rubber match of an entertaining three-fight series between veteran Florida middleweights Joey “Twinkle Fingers” Hernandez (26-4-1, 16 科斯) and Ed “The Lion” Paredes (38-7-1, 25 科斯). Also featured in a showcase bout that night will be 19-year-old Hawaiian WBO-NABO Youth Super Lightweight Champion and WBO #13-rated contender Logan “The Korican Kid” Yoon (11-0, 11 科斯), who will face an opponent TBA.

 

 

 

Tickets for “Hometown Throwdown” cost $60, $100, $150, $250 和 $500 要人. 門票可通過 ticketmaster.com.

 

 

 

Thirty-year-old Calderon is a popular slugger of Honduran heritage. He enjoys a friendship with Miami Dolphins linebacker Kiko Alonso and has already been featured in several main events. The powerful southpaw was last seen in March, stopping veteran Ronald Montes in three impressive rounds.

 

 

 

Also a fan favorite, 29-year-old Martinez was 14-2 作為一個業餘, and won the 2009 Golden Gloves and Florida PAL Championships. In addition to fighting, Martinez is a successful entrepreneur. He trains at the world-famous 5th Street Gym under Dino Spencer. He was last seen in April stopping Felix Sandoval in two rounds at Casa de los Clubes in Santo Domingo, 多明尼加共和國.

 

 

 

埃爾南德斯VS. Paredes will be third meeting between the two fighters. They fought to a thrilling split draw in August 2009 and then again, on ESPN in February 2010 when Paredes scored a shocking KO 2 “Knockout of the Year” contender over Hernandez. It was southpaw Hernandez’s first career loss. The two fighters are not fans of each other. Their first two fights featured dirty tactics and body slams. They have also had to be separated at previous weigh-ins.

 

 

 

Nineteen-year-old Yoon, from Honolulu, won the WBO-NABO Youth Super Lightweight Championship by impressively battering Mexican former two-time world champion Juan Carlos Salgado over 10 rounds last March.

 

 

 

Expected special guests that evening include Heavyweight Factory regulars, former heavyweight champions Riddick “Big Daddy” Bowe and Evander “The Real Deal” Holyfield. 搏擊之夜, the action starts at 7:15 P.M. Doors open one hour prior to start time. Hard Rock Event Center at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & 賭場位於 1 Seminole Way 好萊塢, 佛羅里達州.
