QUEENS, Nueva York (May 15th, 2018) – El Matador Management, Inc. has announced the signing of hard hitting super bantamweight contender, Jonathan “Salomon Rey” Guzmán (23-1, 22 Nocáuts). Felipe Gomez will now be managing the career of hard hitting and former IBF World Super Bantamweight Champion Guzman, who hails from Santo Domingo, República Dominicana. Gomez will be working closely with Sampson Lewkowicz (Guzmán’ Promotor) as they jointly look to keep Guzman busy, while guiding him back toward a world title.

 

 

 

Guzman won the IBF World Super Bantamweight Title with an 11-round stoppage over Shingo Wake (20-4-2, 12 Nocáuts) en Japón. Guzman then defended his title against Yukinori Oguni (18-1-1, 8 Nocáuts) in Kyoto, Japan losing a 12-round unanimous decision.

That is exactly what I need, someone that can help keep me busy fighting and that also believes in me becoming a World Champion again.”

 

 

 

“I am extremely happy to be part of Jonathan Guzman’s team” said Felipe Gomez. “He is an exciting fighter to watch, he reminds me of a mini Mike Tyson. I have big plans for him and I will work relentlessly with Sampson Lewkowicz to help Guzman get back on track. Guzman is a skillful fighter that has tremendous punching power in both hands and I am excited to have him be part of my team!”

TORONTO (Mayo 14, 2018) – As two-division world champion Badou Jack “El Destripador” arrives in Canada for fight week in Toronto, he shared his thoughts on training camp and his matchup this Saturday, Mayo 19 against WBC Light Heavyweight World Champion Adonis Stevenson live on SHOWTIME from Air Canada Centre in an event presented by Premier Boxing Champions.

 

 

 

Jack conducted training camp at Mayweather Boxing Club in Las Vegas with trainer Lou Del Valle and was able to have one of his smoothest and most effective camps of his career.

 

 

 

“This is the first camp that I haven’t had any injuries or felt sick at all during,” dijo Jack. “This is definitely one of the best, si no el mejor, camp of my career. We’ve watched film, kept a strict diet and really focused this camp on gearing up toward fight night.”

 

 

 

After a successful run as a 168-pound world champion, Jack moved up to light heavyweight last August and stopped 175-pound titlist Nathan Cleverly to become a two-division champion. Sin embargo, Jack had already told his promoter Floyd Mayweather that he had his eye on the longest-reigning light heavyweight champion and he would go on to relinquish his belt to seek this fight against Stevenson.

 

 

 

“I asked for the Adonis Stevenson fight a long time ago and the Cleverly fight got me there,” dijo Jack. “We’ve been talking to Floyd a long time about this fight. He’s a man of his word and he always said that I was going to fight Stevenson. I’m grateful for what he’s done and now I just have to take advantage of the opportunity.”

 

 

 

Jack is well aware of the challenges presented by Stevenson, who last let an opponent go the distance in 2015, but enters this fight supremely confident in his abilities to bring the title back home.

 

 

 

“Adonis is definitely my toughest opponent on paper, but that doesn’t really mean he will be the toughest on fight night,” dijo Jack. “Adonis has always fought everyone put in front of him and I respect that. He’s definitely a good fighter, pero soy un mejor peleador.

 

 

 

“Everyone knows about his power, but he has good skills and overall can do everything you need to in the ring. I am excited to fight him and beat him.”

 

 

 

With the recent birth of his second child and launch of his new nutrition supplement brand “Ripper Nutrition” providing extra motivation but also possible distractions, Jack has been able to maintain a laser focus on May 19 and a matchup he calls “the biggest of my career.”

 

 

 

“Start to finish this camp has really gone smoothly and I feel sharp and ready for fight night,” dijo Jack. “Boxing is all about fighting the best. He’s one of the best, pero también lo soy yo. I’m ready to show everyone on May 19.”

 

 

 

Stevenson vs. Jack is part of a split-site SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING® telecast beginning at 10 p.m. ET/PT with featherweight champion Gary Russell, Jr. defending his title against mandatory title challenger Joseph Diaz from the MGM National Harbor in Maryland on Saturday, Mayo 19.

 

 

 

Las entradas para el evento en vivo, que está promovido por Groupe Yvon Michel, Promociones de Lee Baxter y Promociones de Mayweather, están a la venta y disponibles en www.ticketmaster.ca.

FILADELFIA (Mayo 12, 2018) – Blue chip lightweight prospect Devin Haney rose to the occasion in what was the toughest test of his career, defeating veteran Mason Menard via ninth-round TKO in the main event of ShoBox: La Nueva Generación Viernes on SHOWTIME from 2300 Arena en Filadelfia.

Haney (20-0, 13 KOs) entered the fight as a highly regarded prospect who had never been tested. He faced his first test el viernes in what was a scheduled 10-round bout against ShoBox veteran Menard (33-3, 24 KOs).

Haney took control of the fight from the opening bell and never relinquished it. The 19-year-old picked off Menard with a dominating jab from the outside and used lateral movement to avoid getting hit. Menard was unable to land any meaningful punches and he looked sluggish compared to Haney’s consistent movement and athleticism.

After nine rounds of domination, Menard’s corner had seen enough and stopped the fight following the round. Haney passed the toughest test of his career with flying colors, never once letting Menard take control of the fight.

“The plan was to go in there and work off the jab,"Dijo Haney. “If the knockout came, I would take it but I just went in there, put on a boxing clinic and showed the world that I could go the full 10 rondas.

“I feel like I put on a performance. I was relaxed and did my job. I’m definitely the next superstar. There’s only bigger and better things from here on out. I work very hard. I went in and put on a good performance against a guy that people said could knock me out or hurt me.”

Following the fight, a defeated Menard was respectful of Haney’s performance.

“He never hurt me. He was catching me with the best shots he could and never hurt me. But the kid can definitely fight,” Menard admitted.

En la pelea co-estelar de 10 asaltos, super bantamweight prospect Joshua “Don’t Blink” Greer (17-1-1, 9 KOs) scored his third ShoBox knockout against Baltimore native Glenn Dezurn (9-1-2, 6 KOs).

The fight was explosive from the outset, with both fighters pushing the pace. Greer took advantage of Dezurn’s high guard to work the body, while Dezurn pushed forward to engage Greer on the inside. Greer began to dominate in the third round, when a big right hand hurt Dezurn with two minutes remaining.

“I knew he would come hard so I put I the work in the gym to make sure I was ready,” said Greer. “I’m just happy everything paid off.”

Greer hurt Dezurn again in the fifth round with a straight left, and eventually tied him up against the ropes with a succession of blows that almost had Dezurn’s trainer Barry Hunter stopping the fight. After the round, Hunter warned Dezurn that he would stop the fight if Dezurn didn’t fight back.

Despite almost going down in the fifth, Dezurn survived for three more rounds. The injured and exhausted Dezurn wasn’t able to put anything behind his punches and hit the canvas in the eighth round for the first time in his career before referee Benjy Esteves stopped the fight with 1:47 restante.

“I got caught with a few good shots, but I recovered quickly and I was still in the fight,” Dezurn said. “I have a lot of heart, which is a gift and a curse for me.”

A confident Greer was pleased with his performance after the fight.

“I wasn’t surprised I could knock him out,” Greer said. “I knew I could break his will.”

En una atracción destacada de ocho rondas, light heavyweight prospect Charles Foster (16-0, 8 KOs) remained undefeated with a unanimous decision win against Alvin Varmall Jr. (15-0-2, 12 KOs), anotado 77-75, 78-74, 79-73.

Foster dominated the fight from the outset, controlling the scrappy Varmall, quien se convirtió en el 174º fighter to suffer his first loss on ShoBox. Varmall made a valiant attempt to get inside in the early rounds, but a more disciplined Foster held him at bay, with Vermall stumbling and getting tied up inside.

“My experience was the difference,-dijo Foster-. “He was loading up on one punches and I was sticking to my game plan – sticking behind the jab, working the body.”

Foster peppered Varmall with his lead left hand, tagging his opponent enough to break him down and eventually tire him out. Varmall landed a couple of statement shots but wasn’t able to hurt Foster and by the later rounds, his punches lacked power.

“When he would come on the inside he couldn’t hurt me,-dijo Foster-. “I was the one controlling the entire fight.”

In the opening bout of the four-fight telecast, super bantamweight Arnold Khegai kept his unblemished record intact with a unanimous decision over veteran Adam Lopez, anotado 77-74, 77-74, 78-73.

Entrando U.S. debut, the controlled Khegai (12-0-1, 8 KOs) pressed the action from the start. Khegai worked the jab and stayed mobile, capitalizing on a wobbly Lopez (16-2-3, 8 KOs) with a perfectly timed counter punch with 30 seconds remaining in the second round. Khegai stayed busy in the early rounds with consistent counter punches, but earned a point deduction for a hit to the back of Lopez’s head with seconds remaining in the sixth round.

“That was my first fight in the U.S. and I wanted to show something special,” Khegai said. “Everyone was waiting for the knockout, but I wanted to show my boxing skills. I could have gone for the KO in the middle of the fight, but I wanted to prove that I could box.”

Despite a slight dip in productivity in the later rounds, the Ukrainian stayed efficient, aterrizaje 31 golpes al cuerpo en comparación con solo 15 from Lopez.

López, caught off guard by Khegai’s fighting style, was disappointed by his performance in his record-setting seventh ShoBox apariencia.

“I was expecting him to be a dirty fighter, but it kind of threw me off my game. The referee kept telling me ‘don’t retaliate, don’t retaliate.’

"I couldn’t really land my hard shots. I landed a couple,”Dijo López. “I stunned him in the fourth or fifth with a right uppercut. He got rocked a little bit, but he’s a good fighter. He got out of it.”

El evento fue promovido por Promociones Greg Cohen en colaboración con Promociones Devin Haney y Promociones contundente.

Judges saw the bout: 97-92 Harrison, 95-94 Herrero, 96-93 Harrison.

 

 

 

“It’s difficult for me to rate my performance,” dijo Smith. “I think we put on a great show, but overall his reach made it hard for me to land my punches. I don’t think his speed or his age affected my plan, it all comes down to me. I fought a great fight and as you can see, judges ruled it a split decision.

 

 

 

“I followed the instructions my corner gave me, they asked me to move and box, y eso es lo que hice,” dijo Harrison. “I thought I could’ve put a lot more shots together offensively. Ishe is a vet and he showed it each and every round. Each round that I thought I could stop him, he came back. I just had to put the pressure on him a little more. Considerándolo todo, I rate my performance a B+, my guard, my defense and offense was on point, my legs were on point. I stood up after the 3rd round all the way to the end and proved to everybody I could finish like a champ.”

“I’m hard on myself, but I’d give my performance a solid nine,” said Tabiti. “I think I came out and did what I told everyone I would; I showed my skillset, kept a steady pace, and got the KO. I was working on that body shot uppercut combo in the gym, the Mike Tyson 1-2. Siguiente, I’m coming for a title shot. After a nine-month layoff, I’m pleased with my performance. I just want to continue bringing the fans exciting shows.”

 

 

 

“I feel that my performance was good, No estaba cansada,” dijo Kayode. “I felt that with our style of fighting we kept clashing and hugging, we should’ve been able to keep our heads up and put on a show. I was there showing I was ready to fight, but he wanted to fight too, but the way he was coming we just kept clashing and it didn’t make the show look good. I just want to get back in the gym, keep training, and I hope Mayweather Promotions brings me back for another fight.”

 

 

 

In the matchup between Ecuador’s Erick Hueso (20-5, 8 KOs) and Las Vegas fan favorite Cameron Krael (13-13-3, 3 KOs), Bone defeated Krael by a close split decision, judges scoring the bout 95-94 Krael, 95-94 Hueso, 96-94 Hueso.

He seemed to dominate the final rounds, hurting Bone several times but it wasn’t enough to up the scorecards in his favor.

 

 

 

Bone reflects on his performance by saying, “When seeing a record like his, one might trust it, but he is a great fighter, real fast and technical and loves to throw punches. He is a boxer that can cause a problem to any fighter. In the ring it was much more difficult than what I had imagined and Krael made me box more. I feel that I didn’t give it the 100 percent that I am capable of, and this fight taught me a lot. No he luchado en la U.S. since June and that’s almost a year, so this was a test that I learned a lot from, I’m happy judges saw this fight in my favor.

 

 

 

“I don’t agree with the judges’ decisions at all,” says Krael. “I was caught earlier in the rounds, pero creo que hice lo suficiente para ganar la lucha. I should’ve won by split decision. My downfall was allowing myself to be open when I was trying to figure him out, and that’s when he caught me with those combinations. Estoy decepcionado, because I really thought I was the better guy at the end. My plan is to get back in the gym and keep my stamina up and work on boxing these guys out.”

Adonis Stevenson vs. Badou Jack Media Predictions

Writers See Close Contest in Light Heavyweight Title Showdown but Lean Toward Two-Division Champion Jack Over Long-Reigning Champion Stevenson
Stevenson vs. Gato Sábado, Mayo 19 en vivo por SHOWTIME®from Air Canada Centre in Toronto

TORONTO (Mayo 11, 2018) – Members of the boxing media asked to weigh in on the world title showdown between light heavyweight champion Adonis Stevenson y campeón mundial de dos divisiones Badou Jack all see a close fight on Saturday, Mayo 19 but lean toward the challenger to take the crown from the champion live on SHOWTIME from Air Canada Centre in Toronto.

 

 

 

Stevenson vs. Jack is part of a split-site SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING®telecast beginning at 10 p.m. ET/PT with featherweight champion Gary Russell, Jr. defending his title against mandatory title challenger Joseph Diaz from the MGM National Harbor in Maryland on Saturday, Mayo 19.

 

 

 

Las entradas para el evento en vivo, que está promovido por Groupe Yvon Michel, Promociones de Lee Baxter y Promociones de Mayweather, están a la venta y disponibles en www.ticketmaster.ca.

 

 

 

Here is what the media had to say about this matchup:

 

Steve Simmons (Toronto Sun) – “Jack by decision – Adonis Stevenson is 40 years old and hasn’t fought in the past 11 months and has hardly been active the past two years. Look for Badou Jack to try and box Stevenson, stay away from his immense power and work his way to a 12-round decision.”

 

Bob Velin (USA TODAY) – “Stevenson, 11th-round TKO: Jack is the bigger man, and has a six-year age advantage, and both men have not been real active recently. But Stevenson, even at 40, is an outstanding boxer-puncher and keeps impressing. I believe he will stop Jack late.”

 

Lyle Fitzsimmons (Boxing Scene / CBS.com) – “I love this fight. And every time I think about the result, my mind changes. Stevenson is certainly the puncher of the two men, while Jack seems the more dynamic all-around fighter. I can see Badou winning nearly every round based on skill and speed, but it’s harder to envision him getting through 36 full minutes without taking some solid left hands. The hunch here at this moment, aunque, is that he can avoid those bombs in the early going and lessen their severity as he wears Stevenson down in the second half — en route to a decision win.Call it 116-112 for Jack.”

 

Lester Silva (Univision) – “Although Adonis Stevenson hasn’t been tested in years, he possesses one of the best solid left hands in the sport of boxing. His hometown crowd will be on his side May 19 against Badou Jack, who is just getting off with lots of momentum after winning a title. This should be a very interesting fight only if Badou avoids getting caught with that powerful left hand.”

 

Adam Caparell (Complex) – “His age (40) and the questionable competition he’s fought the last five years has to catch up to Stevenson at some point, derecho? Not sure if I see Jack dropping Stevenson, pero I’m taking ‘The Ripper’ in a majority decision.”

 

Josh Katzowitz (Forbes) – “Every time I think Adonis Stevenson has gotten too old or too inactive to continue to win, I’m always proven wrong. Badou Jack is Stevenson’s biggest test in the past five years, so I’m tempted to pick him to beat Stevenson. But even at 40 años, Stevenson still has enough skills to hold on to his belt and he’s still strong enough to knock out a fighter like Jack. I’d pick Stevenson to win by late stoppage.”

 

John Cudney (Reddit Boxing – Sunday Puncher) – “Adonis Stevenson vs. Badou Jack is as close to 50/50 as they come. Stevenson’s left hand is one of the deadliest punches in the sport, and Badou Jack has established himself as one of the game’s best body punchers. To add further intrigue, both men have each suffered a single loss, with each of those losses coming by first round knockout. Either man could win, and the outcome could either be an early KO or a hard-fought decision. I’m going with Badou Jack by decision. I think Jack will be able to avoid Stevenson’s left hand and make this a long and difficult night for the champion. Jack’s body punching will be the perfect weapon to make Stevenson finally feel his age in the ring.”

 

Rhett Butler (The Shadow League) – “This is honestly a fight for true fight fans who understand the pivotal and unique David vs. Goliath matchup that this truly is. Adonis Stevenson has an illustrious array of light heavyweight bodies on his resume and is a true juggernaut in the division. Todavía, Jack earned a world title in his first jaunt at light heavyweight and as the old adage goes, ‘true champions can do it in multiple weight classes’. Both Stevenson and Jack are hungry but I think that Jack will fell the giant in Stevenson this time out. It’s his time and Stevenson thinks since Andre Ward retired he might be safe from anyone not named Kovalev. It will be a war of attrition, that ultimately Badou Jack will have his hand raised from.”

 

Gabe Oppenheim (Props) – “I pick Jack by decision, though a late stoppage wouldn’t surprise me.”

 

Gilbert Manzano (Las Vegas Review Journal) – “In a really close fight, I say Badou Jack pulls it out. Very close, split decision for Jack. I think the fans will witness a couple knockdowns too.”

 

Andreas Hale (Ring Magazine) – “Lucha cercana! Adonis Stevenson’s age might finally catch up to him and he might be underestimating Badou Jack. We might be in for a little barn burner in the middle of the rounds. I’m gonna say Jack by split decision.”

 

Salvador Rodriguez (ESPN Deportes) – “It’s not an easy fight for anyone. Adonis Stevenson is 40 years old and Jack showed some very good things in his first fight at 175 with the KO over Nathan Cleverly last year. I believe Stevenson has something in his pocket, but not enough to defeat a younger lion like Badou Jack. I go for Jack by points.”

(Mayo 11, 2018) – Campeón del mundo de peso pluma Gary Russell Jr.. y retador obligatorio invicto Joseph “JoJo” Díaz Jr. se reunió con miembros de los medios de comunicación en costas opuestas el jueves, a solo una semana de su enfrentamiento por el título mundial del CMB el sábado, Mayo 19, desde MGM National Harbor en Maryland.

Tickets for the MGM National Harbor show, que es promovido por TGB Promotions en asociación con Golden Boy Promotions, están a la venta y están disponibles visitando http://mgmnationalharbor.com/.

 

 

 

Here’s what the fighters had to say on Thursday:

 

GARY RUSSELL JR.

 

 

 

“Sometimes you tend to magnify an event because of the fact that it’s in your hometown and it’s on a major card. It tends to take away from the true goal and the true purpose. I just need to focus on what the objective is. We never magnify the events. Creo que es genial que los vecinos, la cartero y las personas que tocan el claxon cuando me ven corriendo por la calle tengan la capacidad de entrar en su coche y conducir. 15 minutos más adelante para ser parte de todo lo que está sucediendo y poder ver un producto de su entorno.

 

 

 

“Saco mi energía de mi familia, mis amigos, los verdaderos fans de Gary Russell Jr. Eso es por lo que finalmente lo hago. Independientemente de cuál sea nuestra profesión, tratamos de tener un sentido de estabilidad financiera para nuestras familias y ese es mi objetivo también. Eso es lo que me mantiene motivado.

 

 

 

“Díaz ya hizo la declaración de que soy el mejor peleador de la división de peso pluma.. Ya hizo la declaración de que ninguno de los otros campeones del mundo está dispuesto a subir al ring para competir contra mí.. Los gerentes y los promotores no están dispuestos a poner a sus luchadores en el ring contra mí..

 

 

 

“Doy la bienvenida al hecho de que Díaz quiera la pelea. Como campeón del mundo, No querría ni esperaría menos. Quiero un competidor que esté listo para pelear y que dará lo mejor de sí.. Creo que va a ser lo mejor que pueda ser. Mi objetivo es prepararme lo mejor que pueda.. Realmente nunca me concentro demasiado en mis oponentes. Si Gary Russell Jr. es lo mejor que puede estar en la noche de la pelea, entonces estamos bien.

 

 

 

“Yo se que diaz es joven, tiene hambre. Él es el contendiente número uno. Tiene ocho semanas para prepararse para nadie más que para mí. Esa es siempre una receta para alguien que realmente estará listo y hambriento.. Creo que sabe que está subiendo al ring con uno de los mejores luchadores del mundo, así que estará listo..

 

 

 

“Yo amo lo que hago. Incluso cuando haya terminado con el deporte del boxeo, Todavía estaré en el gimnasio entrenando y buscando entrenar. He estado compitiendo desde que tenía siete años. Estaré 30, es mucho tiempo que he pasado moliendo. Solo quiero poder pasar tiempo con mi familia y mis amigos y ayudar a retribuir a esta generación más joven..

 

 

 

“Me quito el sombrero ante él por subir al ring y hacer que esta pelea suceda.. Tienes que apreciar eso como compañero guerrero y compañero gladiador., lo respeto.

 

 

 

“Tengo la fuerza, la velocidad, el poder, generalato anillo, coeficiente intelectual de boxeo – todo eso se juntará en el 19º.

 

 

 

“Definitivamente veo que la velocidad de mi mano es efectiva, pero es más que eso. Eso es solo un atributo físico. ¿Qué sucede cuando ves a dos luchadores que tienen la misma velocidad de mano y la misma cantidad de poder?? Es la mentalidad.

 

 

 

“Siempre es genial competir con mis hermanos menores y compartir el campo de batalla con ellos.. Pero trato de no magnificar el evento. El verdadero enfoque es salir victorioso 19º.

 

 

 

“Siempre es importante ver a mis hermanos desarrollarse, incluso si no estaba en mi tarjeta. Tenemos un concepto de dinastía.. My definition of that is information being passed down from generation to generation. I feel as though when my younger brothers get to the age I am, I expect them to be better than what I am now. The sky is the limit and I want them to keep developing not just as fighters but as men.

 

 

 

“We put the city on the map. We’re bringing boxing back to the DMV area. Gervonta Davis is a fighter that I’ve watched come up through the amateurs and now he’s a world champion. Jarrett Hurd is another one that I’ve watched come up in the amateurs. He used to watch me train getting ready for the Olympics and now he’s a world champion as well. It goes to show that if you keep pushing, you stay hungry, diligent and you don’t cut corners, el cielo es el limite.”

 

JOSEPH DIAZ JR.

 

 

 

“I have no hostility toward Gary Russell Jr. I respect Gary Russell Jr., and I know what he brings to the table. Ever since I was brought up as a professional fighter I was always humble and I was always down to earth. Now that I have the opportunity to become the champion that I know I can be I feel like I’m more outspoken because I know that the opportunity is finally here, and I know what I’m capable of doing.

 

 

 

“I want to fight the best at 126 pounds and I want to show all the fans that I’m the real deal. By fighting and bringing on the toughest 126 pounders like Gary Russell Jr., and defeating him, that’s going to showcase to the whole boxing world that I am the real deal and I will be the king at 126 libra.

 

 

 

“Ha estado inactivo y ahora está acostumbrado a pelear solo una vez al año. Pero lo que lo hace tan peligroso es que es muy, muy rápido y tiene una gran velocidad de mano. Y no solo eso, sino que sabe cómo usar la velocidad de su mano y el contraataque cuando los muchachos se están abriendo.. Mi padre y yo sabemos lo que estamos trayendo a la mesa., y soy rápido, también. Tengo un coeficiente intelectual de boxeo muy alto y soy muy poderoso allí. Sé cómo lanzar golpes furtivos al cuerpo y soy un gran luchador de 126 libras, y esa será la clave de la victoria. Intentará aterrizar sus golpes de poder, pero no van a ser efectivos porque soy el luchador más grande.

 

 

 

“Necesito traer este cinturón WBC a L.A. y al sur de El Monte. I’ll be the first champion coming out of there and I’m a role model to a lot of youth. That’s what makes me hungry and I’m one hundred percent confident I’ll be the champion and we will have a big parade in South El Monte, and you’re all invited!

 

 

 

“I’m like Pernell Whitaker and an Oscar De La Hoya mix. Pernell because he’s fast and Oscar because he applies the pressure and throws combinations. That’s what I plan on bringing to this fight. Applying the pressure and taking him to a point where he’s never been before. He drops his hands a lot and his defense is not that good, so I’ll be taking advantage of that. I’ll be landing body shots, and let’s see if he can take it for 12 rondas.

 

 

 

“This is an opportunity of a lifetime. Fighting for a world title against Gary Russell Jr., es un sueño hecho realidad. I feel like I’m so much better a fighter now than I was at the Olympics. If feel like if I fought that kid who was in the Olympics now I’d stop him in the first round. My management and trainers have groomed me for this fight on May 19. I fought some undefeated fighters, some experienced fighters and some real live dogs. I just feel like all the experience I’ve gained in the past will serve me well.

 

 

 

“I’d like to fight all the best in the 126-pound division, Leo Santa Cruz, Abner Mares, Oscar Valdez and Lee Selby. These are big fights that I really want to make and I want to fight the best and be the best.”

GARY RUSSELL ANTONIO

 

 

 

“We’re in the ring with Gary every day, so we see a lot of things that other people don’t. People only judge him for his hand speed and are just starting to recognize his power, but nobody has seen his full potential yet. No fighter he has faced has forced him to bring it out.

 

 

 

“Diaz doesn’t know what he has coming for him. Most fighters are one-dimensional. Gary is comfortable fighting anyway. He can fight on the inside, the outside, he can counter, he can box you, JoJo Diaz does not know what to expect.

 

 

 

“There’s never a time when we’re in the gym together when we’re not critiquing each other and learning. That’s the whole point of being in the gym every day. Once you feel you’re learning has stopped, I think you should give it up. We’re always in here trying to sharpen our game.”

GARY ANTUANNE RUSSELL

 

 

“It’s more enjoyable fighting with my brothers. As a child, if you had three kids and one of them went to school by himself, it would be a little rough. It’s great having that support and the comfort having your brothers on the same card.

 

 

 

“We try to gravitate towards our brother and take certain things from him. We notice his hand speed and we’re his younger brothers, of course we have that alter ego where we think we could be faster than him or hit harder than him. That competitiveness drives us. It’s always there.”

 

GARY RUSSELL SR.

 

 

 

“The camp has been good. We’ve been getting the work in. Everybody seems to be on point. We’re always in camp together.

 

 

 

“JoJo Diaz has a lot of confidence. All fighters pretty much all do the same thing, unless they have incredible physical attributes that make them stand out. JoJo believes in himself and that’s something that’s a plus for any fighter. Whether or not he’s ready to go out of his shell, Eso aún está por verse. He loves his left hand, he tries to go to the body. He impressed me as a good inside fighter.

 

 

 

“This is a huge plus for us. We’re only 15 minutes from home. We just get to do what we have to do and go home.

 

 

 

“Antonio is a really hard puncher. A lot of people don’t know it, but for that weight class, he hits extremely hard. Antuanne is starting to develop into a complete fighter. He’s always learning. You never get to the point where you have it all, it’s a constant growth but he’s really starting to understand the technical aspects of the sport. I’m happy with both of them.”
