Boxing fans packed the Manchester Downtown Hotel Wednesday night to take in a spectacular night of elite amateur boxing. This was the final stop on a three-city tour of Boston and Springfield, Massachusetts and Manchester, New Hampshire. The scheduled fights featured Team USA amateurs facing the best amateur boxers from Ireland. By the final bell, Ireland managed to finish the eight bouts of the evening with a tie score, their best outcome of the tour. Team USA won the first two duals of the tour in Boston and Springfield, masing-masing, oleh sejumlah 8-4 dan 7-3.

 

Wednesday’s fights were not all about winning, akan tetapi. Bagi sebagian besar petinju yang terlibat, ini adalah kesempatan besar untuk menyempurnakan teknik mereka dan mendapatkan pengalaman kompetisi internasional yang sangat dibutuhkan.. Beberapa penampil terbaik Rabu malam juga kemungkinan akan mewakili negaranya masing-masing di masa mendatang 2020 Olimpiade.

 

 

Acara utama malam itu ditampilkan 2016 Peraih Medali Perunggu Kejuaraan Dunia Pemuda Richard Torrez mendominasi 3 kali Juara Nasional Irlandia Dean Gardiner. Ketinggian dan jangkauan panjang petarung Irlandia yang menjulang tinggi tidak bisa mengatasi kecepatan cepat dan postur pertahanan yang sangat baik dari petinju Amerika yang lebih pendek.

 

Torrez menghabiskan putaran pertama mengeksekusi tipuan dan pukulan yang sangat bagus sambil mencetak gol dengan beberapa pukulan yang membom. Torrez mengubah level, menggunakan gerakan kepala yang licin, dan tidak pernah melepaskan kakinya dari gas karena Gardiner berjalan dengan susah payah ke depan dengan pendekatan yang tidak seimbang dan liar di awal perjalanan. Sebuah tembakan tubuh berdebar-debar terhubung untuk orang Irlandia itu pada awalnya, tapi tidak banyak yang lainnya.

 

Torrez mempertahankan kecepatan kerja cepat di frame berikutnya, melepaskan kait kiri dan kanan dan mendarat dengan rapi di sebagian besar putaran. Dia mencetak gol ke tubuh dan kepala dengan mudah, meskipun sebagian besar ronde melihat lawannya menutupi dan menunggu bukaan. Satu tembakan lurus ke kiri dari Torrez membuat lawannya terhuyung-huyung sejenak, tetapi pria yang lebih tinggi pulih dan mendaratkan hook kiri yang fenomenal ke kepala Torrez saat dia bertarung di luar tali.. Gardiner mencoba mendaratkan pukulan lurus di luar dan tampaknya tidak mampu membalikkan pukulannya dalam jarak dekat.

Ronde ketiga memperlihatkan kedua petarung melesat keluar sampai bel terakhir dengan salah satu pertukaran bolak-balik paling liar di malam itu., tapi itu terlalu sedikit dan terlambat untuk Gardiner. Dia tidak bisa memutar nomornya. Torrez baru saja mengalahkan lawannya dan melakukan beberapa pukulan uppercut yang bagus untuk dilakukan dengan hook kanan dan kirinya yang menggelegar.. Dia menggunakan jab dengan hemat tetapi efektif, menghabiskan sebagian besar bingkai terakhir yang menargetkan tubuh Gardiner. Torrez meraih kemenangan Keputusan dengan Suara Penuh dengan penampilannya dan tidak melakukan lebih dari beberapa pukulan keras dalam prosesnya.

 

Kelly Harrington, peraih medali perak Kejuaraan Dunia dari Irlandia, kemungkinan memiliki performa paling ahli dalam timnya dalam meraih kemenangan mutlak atas Stacia Suttles dalam pertarungan pembukaan malam itu.. Suttles berjuang untuk menjaga dirinya pada jarak pukulan yang ideal melawan serangan tak henti-hentinya dari Harrington di ronde pertama, menghabiskan sebagian besar waktu tiga menit terombang-ambing dan menganyam untuk mencoba menghindari kombinasi tajam dari lawannya. Suttles berhasil mendaratkan pukulannya secara konsisten, dan dia mulai menyatukan beberapa kombo di akhir ronde, tapi Harrington adalah pakar mutlak dalam hal gerakan kepala. Dia tampak seperti Floyd Mayweather, Jr. adalah salah satu pelatihnya saat dia menggunakan teknik tangan rendah dengan tipuan konstan, pukulan tergelincir dan level berubah. Ronde pertama melihat dia mendaratkan pukulan lurus yang indah ke kiri ke kepala dan kombinasi pukulan tubuh dan kepala yang fantastis yang mendarat dengan kokoh. Dia melepaskan beberapa kait yang kuat, meskipun beberapa adalah pembuat jerami liar. Di bawah ini adalah gambar Harrington selama salah satu dari hanya beberapa momen singkat dalam pertarungan di mana dia mengangkat kedua tangannya untuk melindungi wajahnya.

Suttles menangkap Harrington dengan beberapa tembakan melirik dan datar di ronde kedua, tapi dia sepertinya kesulitan mendapatkan kekuatan di balik pukulannya. Dia memang bertukar tangan kanan yang layak dengan lawannya, tapi jelas pada akhir ronde bahwa dia tidak akan bisa menemukan ritme apapun dalam pertarungan karena kecerdikan lawannya.. Harrington menghabiskan waktu yang sama untuk menyempurnakan jangkauannya dengan renyah 1-2 combo dan koneksi hak timah liar. Harrington juga mencetak beberapa hook kiri yang kuat dengan gambar pendaratan kanan lurus yang sempurna hanya beberapa saat kemudian.
Babak ketiga kurang lebih sama untuk kedua petarung. Suttles bekerja di sebagian besar bingkai untuk melacak lawannya, tapi setiap kali dia turun, dia membayarnya. Satu hook kiri yang kokoh mendarat di akhir ronde, tapi itu belum cukup. Harrington menghabiskan sebagian besar dari tiga menit terakhir mencoba menghubungkan dengan tangan kanan sayap. Dia mendaratkan salah satu pukulan terberatnya dalam pertarungan di akhir ronde dan untuk sesaat membuat lawannya tertegun sebelum bel untuk mengakhiri pertarungan.. Harrington mengambil keputusan dengan suara bulat dan terlihat menjadi salah satu petinju paling menjanjikan dengan bobotnya dalam menjalankan untuk 2020 Olimpiade.
Namun contoh lain dari tinggi badan entah bagaimana menjadi kerugian memainkan peran dalam pertarungan wanita lainnya di kartu. Leah Cooper dari Tim AS (#2 Kelas Menengah Wanita AS) menggunakan merunduk dan gerak tipu untuk menghindari jangkauan panjang Aoife Burke yang lebih tinggi. Cooper bertarung dari posisi setengah berjongkok, sehingga sulit bagi Burke untuk mendarat dengan kekuatan yang signifikan pada sebagian besar pukulannya. Juara Irlandia Nasional 8 kali
memiliki beberapa tempat dalam pertarungan di mana dia mendapatkan kembali kendali atas aksinya, tetapi Cooper melakukan penyesuaian yang tepat untuk meminimalkan ancaman.
Cooper melakukan serangan mengerumuni untuk memulai ronde pertama, menembak 1-2 combo dan mendukung Burke. Dia tetap sabar dan gigih di sepanjang bingkai, tetap rendah dan di luar jangkauan tembakan kuat Burke. Burke menunjukkan pertahanan yang sangat baik, tapi dia hanya bisa melempar dan mendaratkan satu pukulan pada satu waktu. Dia memamerkan pukulan tajam di sepanjang ronde, tapi itu tidak menghalangi Cooper. Burke mengalami saat-saat terbaiknya dalam putaran menjelang bel terakhir, mencampur tembakan ke tubuh dan kepala, termasuk pengait kanan yang keras di kepala.
Burke keluar untuk ronde kedua dengan bersemangat, menyerbu Cooper dengan tembakan cepat 1-2 combo dan kait. Dia juga melakukan pukulan bagus yang menemukan dagu Cooper. Cooper berhasil melewati badai, hanya jatuh ke dalam perangkap sebentar. Dia mendapatkan kembali ketenangannya, mendaratkan beberapa pukulan balasan yang sangat baik, dan mengubah apa yang mungkin merupakan babak terbaik Burke menjadi yang terburuk bagi juara Irlandia. Cooper tetap tenang dan dingin, meski mengambil beberapa tembakan terberat lawannya mendarat dalam pertarungan. Dia mendapatkan beberapa yang luar biasa 1-2 combo setelah serangan Burke gagal, akhirnya membuka luka di dekat mata kiri Burke dan hidungnya berdarah. Meninju tubuh Cooper yang keras juga membuat Burke berjongkok ke kanvas sebentar setelah melakukan pukulan hook kanan yang kokoh.
Burke memulai ronde ketiga agak terlambat setelah diperiksa dan diizinkan oleh dokter di sisi ring. Dia kembali memulai dengan rentetan pukulan bom. Dia menargetkan tubuh dan kepala, tetapi Cooper menenangkan diri sekali lagi dan kembali bekerja. Dia mengubah level dengan baik dan mulai terhubung dengan kait yang marah, pertama ke tubuh lalu kembali ke kepala. Dia juga terus melakukan jab aktif dan mendaratkan beberapa pukulan 1-2 combo. Burke berhasil membuat kesibukan lain di menit-menit akhir pertarungan, tapi Cooper tetap menang dengan keputusan bulat.
Tim USA Lightweight James Browning bertanding pada Rabu malam melawan Francis Cleary dari Irlandia sebagai Juara Tinju USA dua kali.. Jelas, Juara Nasional Irlandia sembilan kali, mewakili celah pertama Browning di kompetisi internasional. Kedua petarung memiliki momennya masing-masing, tapi Browning akan menang di akhir tiga pertandingan yang menghibur, putaran aksi bolak-balik.
Browning menghabiskan ronde pertama untuk membangun tingkat kerja yang lebih tinggi daripada lawannya dan menggunakan banyak gerakan untuk menghindari serangan Cleary. Dia juga melakukan pukulan jab yang konsisten, mencampur tembakan tubuh dan kepalanya dengan baik. Padahal dia memenangkan ronde tersebut, Browning mengambil banyak risiko dan membayar harganya. Cleary mengambil tempatnya dan melepaskan pukulan yang lebih bersih dan kuat saat dia bisa mendarat. Dia tidak bisa cukup terhubung, dan dia keluar dari masalah hampir setiap kali dia akhirnya bertarung dalam jarak dekat.
Jelas mendaratkan beberapa bom tajam lagi di frame kedua, menjadi lebih agresif dan mulai melacak lawannya yang terus bergerak. Sebuah pukulan hook kiri yang berdebar di dekat ujung ronde terhubung dengan kepala Browning dan membuat penonton terkesan. Masih, Browning tetap sibuk dan melakukannya dengan baik dalam pertukaran peluru antara kedua petarung itu. Dia sering kali liar, tetapi hasil kerja mencegah Cleary mencuri putaran.
Cleary keluar untuk ronde ketiga dengan keganasan baru, terlibat dalam perkelahian liar dengan Browning. Itu adalah pertarungan terbaik untuk Cleary, dan Browning tidak bisa mempertahankan sifat elusif yang dia tampilkan di ronde sebelumnya. Petarung Irlandia mendaratkan hook kiri yang booming di ronde tersebut, menampilkan penghitung waktu yang sempurna, dan terus menekan hingga bel. Browning jelas terlihat frustrasi dan lelah di akhir pertarungan. Masih, dua dari tiga juri yakin dia pantas menang, mendapatkan kemenangan keputusan terpisah.
Laga berikutnya mempertemukan Juara Nasional Irlandia delapan kali Wayne Kelley melawan Juara Nasional AS 13 kali Adrian Benton dalam pertarungan ketat di kelas welter.. Kedua petarung muda itu memiliki titik terang di pertandingan tersebut, tapi Kelley berhasil mencicit kemenangan split decision dengan licik, usaha yang berani.
Benton memiliki putaran pertama yang lebih baik berkat serangan yang mengerumuni. Dia bekerja di dalam dan di luar jangkauan dengan 1-2 combo dan kait hemat. Dia menggunakan semua sudutnya dengan baik, berputar keluar dari masalah dan menuju jangkauan efektif dengan mudah. Kelley berjuang untuk mendapatkan serangan balik sampai saat-saat terakhir ronde ketika dia mendaratkan kesibukannya sendiri 1-2 combo.
Kelley memulai ronde kedua dengan lebih banyak energi dan ketenangan. Dia mendarat lebih awal dan sering, mengayunkan tangan kiri dan membuka luka di bibir Benton. Benton melakukan beberapa pukulan yang lebih berbahaya, memblokir tembakan dengan baik dan mendaratkan beberapa garing, tembakan kerasnya sendiri. Pertukaran terbaiknya adalah hook kiri dan kanan ke kepala yang mendarat di dekat tengah ronde.
Kelley melambat sedikit di babak final, tidak dapat menemukan kisaran idealnya. Dia mendaratkan beberapa tangan kanan yang keras, tembakan tubuh yang ditempatkan dengan baik dan diturunkan dengan kesibukan terlambat. Benton tetap sibuk di awal ronde dan dengan licik merunduk di bawah tendangan hook kanan dari Kelley. Juri tampak lebih terkesan dengan ketenangan Kelley di dua ronde terakhir saat Benton terus terlibat perkelahian yang ceroboh.. Kelley menyisihkan kemenangan dengan a 2-1 batas.
Kelas welter ringan datang berikutnya, memproduksi kontes ketat lainnya. Caoimhin Ferguson dari Irlandia melawan Charlie Sheehy dari Tim AS dengan pendekatan taktis yang sedikit lebih baik, mendapatkan kemenangan keputusan terpisah lainnya untuk pasukannya.
Sheehy mengambil pendekatan yang lebih hati-hati dan sabar di ronde pertama, menunggu saat yang tepat untuk melempar dan mendarat. Pukulan terbaiknya di ronde tersebut termasuk tangan kanan yang keras ke tubuh dan pukulan jab. Ferguson melakukan lebih banyak pekerjaan dalam bingkai, mencetak gol di banyak kait ke kepala dan melepaskan kebingungan liar dan gila beberapa kali. Satu pukulan hook kiri membentur kepala Sheehy dengan keras di saat-saat terakhir ronde.
Ferguson melakukan beberapa tembakan yang layak di babak kedua, tapi Sheehy jauh lebih tenang. Dia bekerja di sekitar ayunan liar, serangan keras dengan menjaga jarak dan mencetak gol dari luar dengan beberapa hak tajam di dagu. Para petarung bertukar beberapa kait ke tubuh dan berakhir di clinch sebelum akhir ronde.
Sheehy berjuang untuk merangkai pukulan di babak final. Meskipun dia memiliki tangan kanan lurus yang bagus yang bekerja untuknya, Ferguson mampu menembus pertahanannya. Ferguson mendaratkan pukulan hook kiri lebih awal dan melanjutkan untuk mendaratkan beberapa bom lagi sebelum kehilangan juru bicara dalam satu pertukaran.. Mungkin dia tahu dia harus menyelesaikan dengan kuat untuk mendapatkan juri di sisinya, Ferguson bergegas masuk dengan semburan hook terakhir di detik-detik terakhir. Dia mendapatkan a 2-1 keputusan menang karena keuletannya.
Kelas welter Kieron Molloy (Irlandia) dan Freudis Rojas, Jr. (USA) kuadrat dalam pertandingan lain. Kedua petarung sebelumnya adalah Peraih Medali Perunggu Kejuaraan Dunia dengan Molloy juga mengklaim sembilan gelar Nasional Irlandia dan Rojas memenangkan gelar nasional AS. 10 kali sejauh ini. Itu adalah kemenangan tipis lainnya bagi Tim Irlandia.
Rojas jelas menjadi petarung yang lebih aktif di ronde pertama. Dia menggunakan jab yang konsisten dan meningkatkan kecepatan kerjanya melalui frame. Dia ket sibuk melakukan pelanggaran sampai bel. Molloy memulai tembakan sayap bulat dan mencoba mencari tahu jangkauannya. Dia melepaskan sedikit terlambat di beberapa pertukaran yang lebih sengit, tidak tahu cara menjalankan kombinasinya, dan kesulitan mengejar ketinggalan dengan Rojas yang lebih cepat. Molloy berhasil mendaratkan beberapa pukulan lurus ke kiri, meskipun.
Babak berikutnya berjalan jauh lebih baik untuk kidal Irlandia. Dia mulai dengan peningkatan dalam output pukulannya, meskipun dia masih berjuang untuk mendapatkan combo. Pada satu titik di ronde tersebut, Molloy melakukan pukulan lurus ke kiri, diikuti oleh jab kekuatan yang bagus, memperlambat lawannya. Rojas terus maju tetapi tidak bisa memanfaatkan peluang mencetak gol di babak tersebut. Rentetan pukulan akhir dari Rojas tidak cukup baginya untuk mencuri perhatian.
Rojas melakukan beberapa tembakan luar biasa di babak final, turun ke tubuh sesering mungkin. Dia juga menangkap Molloy di tali, meledakkannya dengan pukulan lurus. Molloy melawan putaran yang lebih cerdas, meskipun, memilih waktu terbaik untuk melempar dan sering menangkap Rojas dengan tangan ke bawah. Pertukaran terbaiknya di putaran itu menampilkan yang besar 1-2 menghubungkan ke kepala dan kait kiri liar ke kepala. Serangkaian pukulan terakhir dari petarung Irlandia menutup pertunjukan dan membuatnya mendapatkan a 2-1 keputusan split menang.
Nikita Ababiy dari Tim AS mencetak kemenangan dengan susah payah sebelum acara utama dengan Gerard Prancis dari Tim Irlandia. Babak pertama menampilkan Ababiy menusuk dengan baik. Petinju Amerika itu bertempur dengan gaya tinju yang sangat non-tradisional dengan satu tangan rendah, tapi posturnya tampaknya efektif dalam memikat lawannya ke dalam jangkauan pukulan. Ababiy mendaratkan beberapa pukulan keras dan pukulan atas kiri yang bagus yang mendukung bahasa Prancis. Sementara Itu, French berkonsentrasi mencoba mendaratkan counter. Dia memiliki tingkat kerja yang lebih rendah tetapi juga tidak menerima terlalu banyak hukuman.
Prancis menghabiskan putaran kedua mencoba untuk bertukar dalam jarak dekat. Dia mendaratkan lebih banyak tembakan kemudian di ronde tersebut, termasuk beberapa hook kanan yang panas di saat-saat terakhir. Ababiy terhubung dengan beberapa tembakan keras di ronde tersebut dan menunjukkan beberapa pertahanan yang bagus juga. Dia mencampurkan tembakannya ke tubuh dan kepala, melempar dan menutupi untuk menunggu pembukaan berikutnya. Ababiy mendaratkan hook kiri yang bagus ke kepala diikuti dengan pukulan pukulan kanan yang sempurna di menit terakhir. Dia mengakhiri ronde dengan baik dalam perjalanan menuju kemenangan pertamanya.
Babak terakhir melihat Ababiy melambat sedikit, tapi dia masih cukup efektif untuk membawa kerangka itu. French berhasil mengaitkan beberapa kait kiri ke kepala, tapi dia tidak bisa memahami gaya berbeda yang dibawa lawannya ke atas ring. Orang Amerika melaju ke kemenangan keputusan dengan suara bulat.
Malam itu juga dimulai dengan satu-satunya penghentian pada kartu berkat perkelahian liar antara pemain lokal Manchester seberat 132 pon, Novis NH Michael Correa dan Abhisek Thapa. Correa lepas landas melintasi ring setelah mendengar bel pembukaan dan melepaskan kesibukan liar satu demi satu. Thapa tidak membiarkan tornado menelannya, meskipun. Dia harus menutup-nutupi dan menunggu kesempatannya. Hanya butuh beberapa menit bagi Correa untuk mulai kelelahan dari serangan tanpa henti. Thapa kemudian mengarungi beberapa bidikan yang paling mengesankan di malam itu, memaksa wasit untuk menghentikan pertarungan selama tiga berdiri delapan hitungan sebelum akhirnya datang dengan pusaran pukulan kekuatan dari Thapa.

 

Ada juga penampilan tamu yang dibuat oleh petinju Floyd Mayweather, Jr. masih menyebut lawan terberatnya, Emanuel Augustus (3-34-6, 20 Biaya). Augustus berpartisipasi dalam reuni malam sebelumnya dengan “Irlandia” Micky Ward (38-13, 27 Biaya), merayakan salah satu pertarungan terbaik dalam sejarah olahraga, yang berlangsung pada bulan Juli 13, 2001. Augustus bertahan untuk pertarungan dan bahkan datang ke atas ring untuk menunjukkan bahwa dia masih memiliki kecakapan meninju yang sama yang membuatnya menjadi salah satu petarung paling menghibur di masanya..
“Kami belajar dari tur ini bahwa kami berada di atas sana bersama tim-tim terbaik di dunia,Kata pelatih kepala Tim USA Billy Walsh. “Tim Irlandia sangat bagus, tim muda. Kami akan memiliki tim yang bagus untuk dikirim ke Tokyo (2020 Olimpiade). Saya bangga dengan tim saya. Mereka semua bekerja sangat keras. Kami tidak memiliki beberapa petinju terbaik karena beberapa berkompetisi di turnamen Internasional. Kami memiliki hasil yang bagus 18-19-20 tahun-tahun yang akan menjadi milik kita 2020 Tim Olimpiade. "

Tim Irlandia juga membawa kru produksi mereka sendiri untuk memfilmkan semua aksi bagi mereka yang tidak bisa berada di sana:

Erislandy Lara vs. Jarrett Hurd Media Conference Call Transcript & Audio Recording

Leonard Ellerbe
Moshi Moshi, semua orang. Thank you for joining our call today. We’re very excited. What a great card we have come April the 7th dari Hard Rock Hotel & Casino di Las Vegas. Dalam acara utama, we have Erislandy Lara versus Jarrett Hurd in an outstanding unification fight which will determine supremacy at the 154-weight class.
Dalam acara co-main, we have a great rematch of a fight that saw Caleb Truax wrestle the IBF Super Middleweight Championship away from James DeGale. That’s going to be a terrific fight also.
Dalam pertarungan pembukaan, we have Julian Williams taking on Nathaniel Gallimore in what will be a very, very entertaining fight as an IBF Junior Middleweight Elimination Bout.
Our card is promoted by Mayweather Promotions and TGB Promotions. Tickets are still on sale at AXS.com and it starts as cheap as $50. Lagi, this will be a terrific card led by none other thanI’m going to introduce the man who’s totally responsible for putting all this together, none other than Stephen Espinoza.
Stephen Espinoza
Terima kasih, Leonard. Dengan Baik, the hits keep coming here at SHOWTIME, coming off of a huge March schedule highlighted by the two big time heavyweight title fights. April on SHOWTIME will feature two stellar cards from Mayweather Promotions.
The first on April 7 is a high-quality tripleheader, three competitively matched fights with world title implications and our main event, Lara versus Hurd, a unification fight, featuring two of the top three consensus in the world at 154 pon. Sort of the natural evolution of what has been an unofficial super welterweight tournament over the last year, year and a half on SHOWTIME.
Di 2017, SHOWTIME televised eight matchups featuring all of the top five ranked super welterweight champions and challengers in that unofficial tournament. Now we get the natural results of that, a unification fight which happens to be only the sixth unification fight in the history of the 154-pound division.
Erislandy Lara, he’s the WBA champ, the longest reigning champion at 154 pon. He won the WBA title on SHOWTIME in 2014 and he’s now making his sixth defense. With a record of 25-2-2, he could easily make the case that he could be undefeated certainly. The loss to Paul Williams was very controversial and a very close split decision loss to Canelo. So we very well could have an undefeated fighter.
Jarrett Hurd is the IBF champion. He made the first defense of his title on SHOWTIME in October. He has scored seven consecutive KOs as his level of bout position has dramatically increased and, faktanya, he really has burst on the scene lately. His first televised fight was on SHOBOX in 2015, a KO of Frank Galarza, and he’s been on a roll ever since.
Pertarungan ini, this main event, Lara versus Hurd, is one of five matchups of top five contenders, top five ranked fighters, on the SHOWTIME schedule just in the first half of this year. So we look forward to a great fight, a great card on April 7th.
L. Ellerbe
Terima kasih, Stephen. I would like to introduce the IBF world champion. What an outstanding young fighter. He’s from my hometown. He lives and trains out of Accokeek, Maryland. Always in exciting fights and we expect nothing different come April the 7th. He’s undefeated with a record of 21-0, dengan 15 Biaya. He’s coming off of career-defining TKO victory over Austin Trout. Ladies and gentlemen, the IBF Junior Middleweight Champion, “Cepat” Jarrett Hurd.
Jarrett Hurd
Pelatihan berjalan dengan baik. We’re getting prepared. This is a fight that I wanted just as bad as any and I’m glad we can make it happen. I just can’t wait to put on a show.
L. Ellerbe
Hebat Sekali. Baik. Next up, we have Erislandy “The American Dream” Lara with a record of 25 dan 2 dengan 14 Biaya. Dan lagi, as Stephen mentioned earlier, Lara is the longest reigning champion at 154. A tremendous boxer, real slick, real smooth. He’s been in there with all the top guys in the weight class and again, he’ll be looking to put on another great performance come April the 7th. Jadi, wanita dan pria, Erislandy Lara.
Erislandy Lara
First I want to thank everyone on the call. Yang paling penting, I’d like to thank SHOWTIME for putting on a great fight, thank Mayweather Promotions, TGB Promotions and my whole team. Come April 7, I’ll be ready to fight and ready to put on a show.
Q
For Stephen, I’m just wondering if you could give your thought process as to what made you decide to make a matchup between Erislandy Lara and Hurd as opposed to either of those guys against Charlo.
S. Espinoza
I think it was really the style matchup. When we sat down and looked at them, they’re three exciting fighters, three great champions, but the matchup that was really intriguing because of the styles was Lara versus Hurd.
Erislandy has never shied away from any challenge. Jarrett was very vocal about wanting to unify. And the combination of their styles, where they are in their careers, it seemed like an intriguing matchup.
Q
Do you believe that the winner of the fight would then look to fight Charlo?
S. Espinoza
Benar. And Jermell is game. He’s on board. He’s on board for it. He was recently on SHOWTIME and he indicated he wants the winner. He wants the winner next.
Q
Jarrett, what was it about this matchup that made you want it more?
J. Hurd
Dengan Baik, I knew both fights will eventually happen. But I feel like the fight with Erislandy Lara will give me more credibility and will put me in position at number one. I wanted to be top guy in my division and now I feel like I am the top guy in my division.
Pertarungan ini, I want it over the fight with Jermell Charlo, even though the fight with Jermell Charlo is more anticipated and people wantmaybe because of our styles, but I wanted this fight because I feel like it will put me to better position in the 154 divisi.
Q
Do you feel like at 27 years old you’re now in your prime and that basically whether it’s Erislandy Lara, or anybody else in the weight class that Jarrett Hurd’s punching power can take care of them?
J. Hurd
I feel like my powerI have the power that’s deceptive and it doesn’t look as hard on TV or while you’re in there until you feel it. It’s a total different story.
I feel like my power can stop anyone, put anyone down. But on April 7th, the knockout streak, I’ll stop another guy and I plan on continuing to keep doing.
Q
Are you ready for a much different kind of style in an experienced fighter like Lara? How do you deal with that kind of skill?
J. Hurd
Lara, he’s been the longest reigning champion at 154. Saya telah berjuang di 154 all my life, so we’ve been watching him since I turned professional and the style Lara presents we’ve been training for this long before this training camp. He’s a great champion but Lara has always been on top and we always study and the game plan we got is perfect and this is why we wanted the fight. It’s no secret how badly I wanted this fight.
Tentu saja, I’m not going to stay in there and try to box with Lara because Lara is an expert on what he does. Lara is not going to stand there toe-to-toe with me because of my size, inside game and my power. So it’s going to be a cat and mouse game and I just can’t wait to show you guys that outcome.
Q
I wonder if Lara could give me his perspective on where he thinks Jarrett Hurd falls in the weight class and whether or not he feels like he is going to have to outbox him or maybe he can mix it up with him a bit.
Dan. Lara
I’m ready to go for April 7th. Jarrett Hurd, as everyone knows, he’s a big, strong fighter, but pretty basic. He can try to fight, kind of like a Mexican strong style and those are styles that I’d like to fight.
So come April 7th, we hope he’s prepared. I’m prepared and want to put on a great fight for the fans and for the writers and for everyone else.
Q
Was this a fight that Erislandy wanted or would he have preferred a Charlo unification?
Dan. Lara
Seperti semua orang tahu, I was the one who wanted this fight. He won his title in February, I wanted to fight him in October and his team said he wasn’t ready to fight me in October. They wanted him to be prepared to fight another southpaw and prepare for me.
Jadi, as the pressure mounted, Jarrett Hurd decided just to fight. So I’m happy he stepped up to the plate but as everyone knows, I want his belt and I want the other belts in this division as well.
Q
Jarrett, how do you feel Erislandy compares to Trout in the sense of how much better he might be and how much of a step-up in competition it is for you?
J. Hurd
I feel like Lara has a little bit better foot movement than Trout. And one thing about Trout, he took chances in my fight. He stayed there with me. I don’t think Lara is going to take that many chances. He’s a very disciplined fighter.
So whatever works for him, he’s going to stick to exactly what he’s working for. He’s never going to change it no matter how hot on the scorecard he is or not, he’s going to stick to his game plan and I think he’s much more disciplined and a little sharper than Trout.
Q
How much do you feel that it helped you to fight Trout to get ready for this fight?
J. Hurd
It definitely helped me, not only to fight Trout, but just going to two training camps with southpaws. I only fought three southpaws in my career before Trout. So now I have a lot of experience with them. So going into this fight I wanted to kind of go into two or three camps before I face Lara and I think it helped me.
Q
Erislandy said that you fight like a Mexican. How much of a compliment do you take that as?
J. Hurd
Mexicans are fighters, satu. I take it as a compliment. When you describe a Mexican fighter, you stay toe-to-toe and that’s what the fans like to see. Tentu saja, that’s not my only style. Everyone sees I can switch it up with my fight with Frank Galarza back in Las Vegas and it all depends on what I have to bring out that night. I can do it all.
Q
Erislandy, what do you think of how Hurd fought in the Trout fight?
Dan. Lara
I watched the Trout fight in the locker room and as I was preparing for my fight, so I couldn’t watch that carefully but from what I saw in the fight, I thought Trout was winning the fight and as the fight wore on, jelas, Trout’s legs weren’t there and he hadn’t fought in 17 months and he’s also a fighter who’s on the back-end of his career, and had lost already several times.
But I thought Trout was actually doing a good job in the fight and, seperti yang saya katakan, Hurd is a guy who likes to take it up a notch after six, seven rounds and I like to take it up a notch or two after six, seven rounds. Jadi, ini akan menjadi pertarungan besar. And come April 7, I’m just ready to rumble.
Q
Based on what you just said, do you feel that maybe too much has been made of the Trout win?
Dan. Lara
People are going to have their take on the Trout fight but, there is no fighter at 154 atau 160 or anywhere around this weight division that has my style and my boxing ability and my smarts, and that’s the reason I’ve made it this far.
Trout was out 17 bulan. He is an older guy. He’s been defeated several times and he is a former world champ but he’s also had a loser mentality.
It’s a lot different when you’re fighting a winner and you’re fighting the guy who also dominated Trout and put him on the deck and let him off the hook in the 12th. It’s an exciting fight and we’re excited to put on a great fight.
Q
How important is it for you, if you’re able to beat Jarrett Hurd, that you go and fight Jermell Charlo and you in effect clean out the 154-pound division?
Dan. Lara
I said it before and I’m going to say it again. I’m going to clean out the division and that has been my plan from the beginning and I’m going to stick to my plan. I don’t care who the champions are. I don’t care what their names are or where they’re from. I’m going to clean up the division and it starts April 7.
Q
Do you view Hurd as a tougher fight than Charlo or vice versa?
Dan. Lara
I don’t look at them any different. They’re both to me kind of the same fighter. They both come up to the ring with a purpose and they’re trying to win. Tetapi pada akhir hari, I’m the best fighter in this division. It’s been proven over years. So whether it was Hurd first, Charlo first, it didn’t matter. I’m just ready to rumble.
L. Ellerbe
I would also like to touch on that. With all due respect to Trout, Jarrett Hurd ain’t Austin Trout. Maksudku, this kid is the real deal. I try to look back in the history of this particular division and I can’t think of a fighter who was as big and physical and applies the kind of pressureespecially mental pressurethat he puts on guys in a very, very long time. Ini akan menjadi pertarungan yang luar biasa, an excellent matchup, contrasting styles and I’m really, really excited to see this bout.
Q
You said before in the past that you start off slow in your fights on purpose even to the point of taking a blow or two from your opponent. What’s your thinking behind strategy like that?
J. Hurd
I’m just feeling my opponent out. You don’t want to go out there and not know what he’s capable of. So you just don’t want to go out there and take that many chances without seeing what the guy’s got. Jadi, I just use the first round to see what he has and take it from there, make the adjustments.
Q
Do you think people recognize your size and your power? Do they underestimate your ability to fight inside?
J. Hurd
A hundred percent. I don’t think now, but I think they did before. Me being a taller, longer, rangier guy they expect me to be on the outside and I know I surprised a lot of people when I start to fight inside, that close. I watched a lot of James Toney. So that’s where I kind of get it from.
Q
Stephen, you said this fight was chosen and put together based on the styles of these fighters. Is it that you recognized the last four opponents that Hurd’s faced were two orthodox fighters and also two southpaw fighters that he put on a great performance against?
S. Espinoza
Dengan Baik, it was more looking for an entertaining fight. It’s sort of the classic matador-and-bull type of fight. You’ve got a really aggressive hard-punching, muda, strong champion and you’ve got, another champion who’s known as one of the most skilled fighters in any division. So it’s sort of the unstoppable force immovable object coming together; which style is going to win out?
So it really wasn’t as much looking at past opponents as it was, what might be the most exciting fight. And not to say that Jermell isn’t an exciting fighter, terlalu, karena, that is definitely something that’s very, very possible in the near future.
So it was just, which one could come first, which one would come next, and I think the clash of styles is what attracted us to this matchup first.
L. Ellerbe
Sometimes when people referred to Lara, they just mostly speak about his boxing skill. But Lara can also crack, terlalu. So those out there who sleep on Lara’s power are sadly mistaken. I’ve sat ringside, first row a couple of his fights and especially the Canelo fight and I’ve seen firsthand what his power looks like. And if anybody’s sleeping on his power, they are sadly mistaken.
Q
Jarrett do you think those recent fights are the fights that prepared you going into this fight against Lara?
J. Hurd
Iya Nih, I feel more though that my career period has prepared me for this fight. I didn’t come up the easy route. So I didn’t have a big amateur career. A lot of people didn’t want to give me a chance. I had to go out there and take them. My performances I put on when I got the opportunity each and every time on TV, I went out there and did what I was supposed to.
Jadi, I feel like just my career, periode, and all I’ve been through prepared me for this fight, not just those fights on TV, but those little fights.
Q
You say that you want to go ahead and walk opponents down and try to get rid of them, put the more pressure on. Is that the case?
Jarrett Hurd:
It depends. Like during the Austin Trout fight. He did lack a little power, so I was willing to take some to get some in. I was willing to take some chances but, it all depends on, seperti yang Anda katakan, if they all lack a little power. Are you willing to take those chances?
Like my fight with Oscar Molina, he can crack a little more than Tony Harrison, so I was kind of a little more head movement and little less willing to go into there without being cautious.
Itu semua tergantung. But like I said man it’s crazy because people define me by my last two fights as that’s my style. I was the guy that always was the kind of puncher and fought from his back foot until guys started to compare me and look at my size. I didn’t even realize I was that big of a fighter until I got on the stage with some of these guys. So my last two fights are the only fights that I have fought that way in my career, coming forward and then pressure, because I knew eventually I would have to come into a fight with a guy like Lara. We’ve been working on it, but I could switch it up. I can do whatever. It all depends on my opponent that night and y’all just going to have to wait and see.
Q
Erislandy, are there any concerns about him getting stronger as the fight goes on and also how he’s able to take punches from people and actually take their power?
Dan. Lara
I keep seeing people refer to his height or how big he is, but Williams was taller and bigger than him. Canelo was and is stronger than him, and they couldn’t deal with me.
So I’m not worried about what he has to bring today. I’m worried about what I have to do in that ring. I’m focused. Saya siap, and there’s no question in my mind I know I can knock him out. If he gets reckless, he’s going to get knocked down. And if not, then he’s going to get beat up.
He’s going to have to make that decision on April 7 whether he’s willing to go through the fire or if he’s just willing just to lose a decision. It’s up to him. He’s going to have to decide that on April 7.
Q
Do you think that those past fights have given you any kind of preparation or anything for this fight coming? Or do you feel that you’re totally different from when you fought Paul Williams and when you fought Canelo, secara fisik?
Dan. Lara
I don’t look for one specific fight. I don’t look at last fight or the last four fights because my whole life, I’ve been preparing for this, since Cuba.
I didn’t have shoes until I was 5 tua tahun. I was preparing for this. I was born to be a fighter. It was during my whole amateur career, 350 plus amateur fights, several world championships across the amateurs. Now my whole pro-career, I fought the top guys, I’ve beat the top guys, and that’s what’s prepared me for this fight and prepared me to fight whoever is available in the division.
So I’m ready to go and I’m ready to fight.
Q
Leonard, with Mayweather Promotions, are you guys planning to put more and more fights together, not just with your own fighters but working with SHOWTIME to put on just top-quality fights, periode?
L. Ellerbe
We’re very excited to promote all these big events, working along with SHOWTIME and expect to see more of it in the next couple of months.
We’ve outlined our next few big events that we have and expect more of that in the fall of this year. All we’re looking to do is put on the biggest and best events and make them for the fans.
Q
What is Erislandy’s take on sometimes people not appreciating the sweet science and his boxing ability?
Dan. Lara
This is a sport. Boxing is hit and don’t get hit. That’s the way it was taught from the beginning of time. It’s a sweet science and all fights are different. Styles are different. Styles obviously make fights.
Some guys are willing to take more risk than others and that sometimes dictates the action in a fight. My main focus is to win every fight and win clearly. Itu pekerjaan saya.
Q
Erislandy are you the only fighter in the division that could put Jermell Charlo in his place?
Dan. Lara
One hundred percent yes. And from my experiences of hundreds of rounds of sparring, Jermell Charlo won’t fight Erislandy Lara next when we get done with Hurd. Only time will tell.
Q
Jarrett, do you see any weakness in Erislandy Lara?
J. Hurd
Well you all will have to see that on fight night. Not to give away too much of the game plan, tapi, seperti yang saya katakan, Lara’s toughest fights are when guys put pressure on him. And that’s what we’re going to do.
Q
Leonard, you talked about Jarrett’s versatility and how you’ve done some research on this weight class and his size. But in your time, have you seen a guy with his relative inexperience to someone like Lara expressing the confidence that he has done and also just rising so quickly against quality opposition like this?
L. Ellerbe
Tidak, I think it’s a tremendous asset. Confidence is everything in this sport. He has a strong belief in his skill set and his ability to go out there and get it done.
Jelas, this is the biggest and toughest challenge to date with Lara being a great champion who has fought on the big stage and has fought a number of great fighters. But again, those contrasting styles and Jarrett having the ability and the confidence to bring that to the table I think is going to make a big, big difference.
Because it’s one thing with sitting on the outside and watching guys fight on TV, but it’s a whole different ballgame when you got a light heavyweight walking you down and putting that kind of mental pressure on you. But Lara’s built for this kind of thing because he’s seen any and every kind of style out there.
So these are the reasons why I think it’s a great, great matchup because again, I think that Jarrett is going to bring out the best in Lara and I think vice-versa, Lara is going to bring the best out in Jarrett. Period.
When it comes to Lara, we’ve seen him on the big stage before. He’s a tremendous boxer. He’s actually, in my eyes, the best boxer that’s out there. Tremendous foot movement, head movement, coming from that great Cuban school of boxing, he’s a real deal.
But again, you got this young, tough, hungry lion that had the mindset that he doesn’t care what Lara has done in the past because Lara has never fought nobody like Jarrett Hurd, and vice-versa.
That’s what makes this an intriguing matchup. Come April 7, I expect this fight probably might end in a knockout.
Q
What is your assessment of Jarrett Hurd compared to the guys you faced in your career?
Dan. Lara
I don’t compare fighters. I look at him as a young, hungry kid who’s got desire. He wants to be great. He’s going to come forward and he’s going to come ready to fight. If he doesn’t come forward, then I’ll be ready to fight, terlalu, however it plays out. But I’m ready for everything he brings to the table.
Q
When was the last time, Erislandy, that someone outright predicted that they were going to knock you out as he has done?
Dan. Lara
Every fighter wants to knock you out when you get in that ring. Paul Williams wanted to knock me out. Canelo, Baling-baling, plus he keeps mentioning how it’s going to be Angulo and this and that.
Dengan Baik, Angulo connected on me twice, but don’t forget how that fight finished. I ended Angulo’s career. I ruined his career and I put him out of the top level of boxing.
If Jarrett Hurd thinks he’s going to come like that, I’m going to end his career too, di 27 tua tahun. So come April 7, I’m hoping he puts that pressure so I could ruin his career for all the talking that he’s been doing.
Q
Jarrett? What did you think of what he just said?
J. Hurd
Maksudku, here’s the thing, we all know that Lara has the experience. He’s seen every style from right-handed to the southpaw. Anything you give him, he’s seen it all. But he has not experienced what I’m about to give him.
It’s not about the styles that you’ve seen; it’s about what you’re about to experience. So this is a whole different ballgame. You get in there to fight with Jarrett Hurd and you’ll see how that all ends.
I speak from the heart and I say what I feel. I’m not just out here talking just to talk. I’m putting in the work. Where my chance is going and where I see this fight playing out, there’s no way that Lara is going to come out of top.
Q
What makes you different from Angulo? Dan juga, does it give you a little bit of an edge that he is a little bit older now than he was then?
J. Hurd
Tidak, we never play that old card. You’ve seen Lara’s performances. He’s still in great shape. Age is not factor. I hate guys saying the same thing with Austin Trout. They say age is starting to show.
We’re not going to play the age card. We see that Lara is still a great fighter. He’s the longest reigning champion for a reason and age shouldn’t play a part.
As far as the past Angulo thing, nothing to take away from Angulo. Dia seorang pejuang besar, he’s done great things, but I’m much faster than Angulo, much sharp than Angulo, hit harder than Angulo and I’m a much bigger guy.
So physically, when I’m in there, on him in the ring, he’s going to feel it. He couldn’t take the pressure and the style from Angulo. He’s going to be in long night when he fights me.
L. Ellerbe
Baik. Ladies and gentlemen, you’ve heard from both fighters. Lagi, we have a tremendous lineup, great tripleheader live on SHOWTIME, April the 7th, 10 p.m. ET / 7 p.m. PT, dari Hard Rock Hotel & Casino di Las Vegas. Lara versus Hurd, Truax versus DeGale, Julian Williams versus Nathaniel Gallimore. What a tremendous tripleheader, hidup di SHOWTIME.
We want to thank everyone for joining us on the call. Have a wonderful day.

LAS VEGAS (Bulan Maret 22, 2018) — Unbeaten bantamweight prospect The Baby-Faced AssassinMax Ornelas (10-0-1, 4 Biaya) goes from the University of Nevada at Las Vegas classroom into an on-campus ring at Cox Pavilion on April 20th to take on his Roy Jones Jr, (RJJ) Boxing Promotions stablemate, Dallas challenger Tony Lopez (12-3, 4 Biaya), in the 10-round main event for the vacant World Boxing Association (WBA) North American Boxing Association (Juga) bantamweight title.
Ornelas vs. Lopez, presented RJJ Boxing Promotions, will air live on beIN Sports, mulai dari 10 p.m. DAN / 7 p.m. PT.
I’ve watched Max come up in the rankings and as his confidence and power have grown,” co-promoter Roy Jones, Jr. tersebut. “The way he has represented his hometown and my stable is remarkable. Saat Ini, to witness him fight in front of his fellow UNLV student body, I know he will exude humbleness for RJJ, UNLV and Las Vegas.
The Las Vegas-born Ornelas was 38-5 sebagai seorang amatir, highlighted by a bronze-medal winning performance at the National PAL Championships, ranked as high as No 2 in the United States in the 123-pound division.
RJJ Boxing Promotions immediately put Ornelas on the fast track from the start. He was late for the official weigh in of his June 10, 2016 pro debut because of his high school graduation, turned 18 the day after his first fight, and later signed an exclusive promotional contract with RJJ on the following Hari Senin.
The lone blemish on his otherwise perfect pro record is a two-round technical draw against 6-0 Leopoldo Martinez, which Ornelas avenged tiga bulan kemudian di pertandingan ulang, stopping Martinez in the fifth round. In his most recent fight last November, Ornelas was in his fist 10-round bout, headlining on beIN Sports from Sloan, Iowa, in which Ornelas won a 10-round unanimous decision over veteran Nick Otieno (31-11).
I love what RJJ Boxing Promotions has done for me,” WBA N0. 14-rated Ornelas spoke about his accelerated pace. “I’m only 19 but they’ve shown that they trust me. They gave me seven fights in six months, making it much quicker for a world title fight. The rest is up to me.
Ornelas (digambarkan ke kiri) is familiar with Mexico-born Lopez, yang merupakan 2012 Ft. Worth Golden Gloves champion, having fought on the same card twice in Las Vegas and Arizona. “He’s a southpaw with a cocky style that’s hard to defend,” Ornelas remarked, “but my speed and smarts in the ring will beat him. I think we’ll box a few rounds, like a chess match to open the fight, but I’ll open-up in the middle rounds and take him out in the sixth, seventh or eighth round.
This will be my toughest fight yet. He’s more experienced. This is going to be a good fight with a title on the line. An impressive win is going to open up more doors for me.
Ornelas’ parents insisted that Max would have to attend college if he turned pro. He balances his life as a UNLV sophomore, majoring in criminal justice, with that of a prize fighter. Fighting at home, on the UNLV campus in front of family, friends and fellow students, pumps up the affable Ornelas.
When I’m not training, I’m in school or studying,” Ornelas explained. “I’ve handled things well. I’m disciplined and like to stay busy. I’ll stay in school and keep fighting until I graduate. I’ll probably cut back my workload, meskipun, when I’m training for a world title fight.
I’m really excited about fighting at home. I’ll have a lot of people there supporting me. I like pressure and my adrenalin will be pumping. Because of my weight class, I realize that I will need to travel to other countries to fight for titles, but it’s always exciting for me to fight at home in Las Vegas (this will be his sixth pro fight in Las Vegas).”
Former WBA junior featherweight RicoSuavacito” Ramos (28-5, 13 Biaya) squares off against Mexican featherweight Daniel “El ChatoNoreiga (30-11, 15 Biaya), a former WBA Fedecentro super flyweight titlist, dalam delapan putaran, co-featured event on beIN Sports.
Opening the televised portion of this loaded card is the much-anticipated professional debut of Uzbekistan-native Elnur Abduraimov, now fighting out of Las Vegas, who was a bronze medalist at the 2015 Kejuaraan Amatir Dunia, as well as a 2015 Asian Amateur Boxing Championships winner. The gifted Uzbek will be in a six-round bout versus an opponent to soon be determined.
In a pair of eight-round fights, Australian junior middleweight and past world title challenger, Orang bodoh “The Titan” Browne (35-7-2, 13 Biaya), memenuhi Carlos Hernandez (15-17, 12 Biaya), Puerto Rico, while unbeaten World Boxing Council (WBC) United States welterweight champion Linggis kecil “Quiet Storm” Williams (14-0-1, 5 Biaya) faces TBA. Williams is a former college football player from New Haven, Connecticut.
Fighting on the undercard in six-rounders are Las Vegas welterweights Kevin Johnson (4-0, 4 Biaya) vs. TBA, and undefeated Roy Jones protégé Shady Gamhour (6-0, 5 Biaya), a Swedish middleweight now living in Joneshometown of Pensacola, Florida.
In four-round action are Russian middleweight Pete Khamukov (1-0, 1 KO) vs. TBA, Kelas berat ringan Rusia Vyacheslav Barsukov (4-0, 3 Biaya) vs. TBA and pro-debuting Las Vegas junior lightweight Jaime Gomez vs. Ivan Ortiz (1-0-1, 1 KO), Los Angeles.
Semua perkelahian dan pejuang tunduk pada perubahan.
With Ornelas vs Lopez,” co-promoter Keith Veltre ditambahkan, “fans are going to watch a great battle in every sense of the word. They’re two aggressive fighters who will surely entertain fans on April 20th.
This card is filled with heavy hitters, power punchers and body shot artists. People are going to walk away feeling the pain of each loss and ready to celebrate all of the victories.
