EDMONTON, Canada (Novembre 6, 2017)In its continuing efforts as the boxing network destination for Canadian boxing fans, Super Channel has announced that it has secured the exclusive rights to air the LiamBeefy” Forgeron vs. Liam Williams rematch, ce samedi (Novembre. 11), live from Metro Radio Arena in New Castle, Royaume-Uni.
The replay of Smith vs. Williams I from this past April will also air on Super Channel ce vendredi(11 p.m. / 8 p.m. PT) et Samedi (1:45 p.m. ET / 10:45 a.m. PT).
Le Smith vs. Williams II carte, presented by Frank Warren’s Queensbury Promotions andà partir de 3 p.m. ET / 12 p.m. PT, will be a 12-round World Boxing Organization (WBO) super welterweight title eliminator with the winner positioned to fight the winner of the WBO title fight between defending champion Miguel Cotto et challenger Sadam Ali en Décembre. Cuit, cependant, claims that he will retire after that fight. Williams is presently rated No. 2 par la WBO, Smith No. 4, ainsi que n. 7 in The Ring magazine’s independent rankings.
Additional Smith vs. Williams II card fights airing Samedi on Super Channel will be announced later this week.
With the World Boxing Super Series taking a break before the semi-final matches return in the new year, we are excited to be able to continue to deliver high-stakes, world-class boxing to Canadian fight fans with this highly acclaimed rematch between Smith and Williams,” dit Troy Wassill, Directeur de la programmation, Domestic Distributors & Sports for Super Channel. “Given the controversy surrounding their initial match in April, tension will be high and both fighters will be looking to settle a score.
In the last fight for both boxers, Forgeron (25-1-1, 14 KOs) won a controversial fight last April when Williams retired after the ninth round, despite leading on all three judgesscorecards by identical scores of 86-85. Williams had suffered a double laceration on his right eyebrow that he claimed was the result of Smith’s flagrant headbutt in the third round. Smith believes he was robbed of the opportunity to knockout Williams.
The 29-year-old Smith captured the WBO Super Welterweight World Championship in 2015, arrêt américain Josh Thompson (17-1) au septième tour. The gifted Brit made two successful title defenses against fellow countryman and previously undefeated “Pince-monseigneur” Kilrain Kelly (16-0) et Predrag Radosevic (30-1), stopping them in the seventh and second rounds, respectivement.
Smith lost his belt to star Saul “Canelo” Alvarez a year ago, getting knocked out in the ninth round of their WBO title fight in Texas. Smith won a four-round decision against Marian Cazacu in a tune-up fight this past March, setting the stage for an interim WBO super welterweight title fight against Williams last April in Manchester, Royaume-Uni. Smith won the fight but was ineligible to capture the interim title because he failed to make the contracted weight.
I don’t think you had to be a good fighter to beat me in the first six rounds of our first fight,” Smith said about his original fight with Williams. “I was slow, flat and sluggish. I can never be that bad again. What I did to try and make weight during fight week killed me. It was nothing to do with having a slow start by game plan. Liam had a good start and I couldn’t have been worse. Il y a 10 fighters in Britain that could have properly out-boxed me on that night.
The fight was changing before round nine. He threw his head in numerous times because I didn’t get cut off it. Indépendamment, you go in the ring, you get wet. The minute you got cut, you knew your chips were down. You spewed it! You chose to let Gary (his head trainer) pull you out. You knew you’d had your moment and you were gone.
I was up for this rematch and that is why we’re here now. As soon as I start better, Liam is going to be in more of a fight earlier on and he won’t get his own way. It is only to go one way and he is going to crumble earlier than he did last time. I am stronger than him and I have more heart than him.
Williams, 25, has notable victories over Gabor Gorbics (22-4) for the vacant WBO European super middleweight title, et Gary Corcoran (15-0) for the BBBBofC British crown. The Welshman also was the Commonwealth (Empire britannique) 154-livre division titlist.
Our first meeting was a good fight,” Williams a expliqué. “I felt like I started very well. I was out-boxing him and getting a lot of rounds in the bag. Il venait sur une forte, which we were always prepared for, (parce que) that is the kind of fighter Liam is. He comes with a very solid defense and he is very strong.
Obviously it ended the way it did. It wasn’t fair. We didn’t give the fans a chance to see what the proper outcome should have been. I took a nasty cut to the eye. These things happen, it isn’t a tickling contest. These things happen in boxing and I’m glad to get a chance to do it again.
I think he was down in the fight and he needed to do something. It was frustrating, and I do believe the head clash was intentional. We are both going to be better. I am going to be more prepared and it is going to be another cracking fight. I’m going to put this to bed.
Super Channel has aired several major boxing events live in 2017 including Brook vs. Spence Jr., Pacquiao vs.Horn, Eubank, Jr. vs. Abraham, Lomachenko vs. Marriaga, Crawford vs. Indongo and the World Boxing Super Series (WBSS) quarts de finale.

Seconds after Stiverne got back to his feet, Wilder landed another clean combination with a big left and an overhand right that sent a stunned Stiverne back to the canvas. The final blow came in the waning moments of the opening round as Wilder landed four clean punches to the face of a wobbly Stiverne.
You have to give props to Stiverne for getting in the ring,” Saïd Wilder. “It takes a lot of courage and it takes a lot of pride to step in the ring with someone like me. We do what we have to do in the ring and at least he stepped up. He was a clean fighter.
After the brutal knockout, an emotional Wilder was asked by SHOWTIME Sports®reporter Jim Gray about a possible fight with unified heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua.
I’ve been waiting on that fight for a long time now,” Saïd Wilder. “I declare war upon you. Do you accept my challenge? I’ve been waiting for a long time. I know I’m the champion. I know I’m the best. Are you up for the test?
A king doesn’t chase the peasants. A king takes kings. I want Joshua. If he doesn’t give me the fight we have other plans. The world wants Joshua, the world wants Wilder, I want Joshua. Joshua come and see me baby. No more dodging, no more excuses. Make the date, don’t wait.
Former welterweight world champion Shawn Porter (28-2-1, 17 KOs) vaincu Adrian Granados (18-6-2, 11 KOs) par décision unanime (marqué 117-111 par les trois juges) in an exciting fight between two all-action competitors that served as the co-featured event of SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING. The victory makes Porter the mandatory title challenger for unified welterweight champion Keith Thurman’s WBC belt.
Porter, who injured his left hand in the sixth round, landed the sharper and more accurate punches throughout the fight, y compris 40 pour cent de ses coups de puissance. Both fighters came out aggressive in the early rounds and exchanged several powerful blows.
He gave me a little trouble here and there,” M. Porter. “I hurt my left hand in the sixth round, but I kept using it. I had to use my jab. It took a toll on me and by the 10th round I just couldn’t throw it anymore.
The strategy was to keep working the jab. I knew he’d come at me periodically. I was prepared and dug deep to get the win.
Granados, of Cicero, Illinois, fought valiantly and withstood multiple barrages from the powerful Porter and countered with several quick combinations of his own. Granados, who landed just 24 pour cent de ses coups totaux, disagreed with the judgesscorecard.
I thought that I was controlling the fight and keeping up with him the whole time,” Granados told Jim Gray. “He was just trying to use his normal tricks. I rocked him multiple times and he never had me in any trouble.
He’s a brute. I thought the referee [Gary Rosato] did a good job breaking up the fight at the right times. It was rough but I definitely thought I did better than the scorecards said.
Dans le combat d'ouverture de la télédiffusion, unbeaten top contender Sergey Lipinets (13-0, 10 KOs) earned the vacant IBF Junior Welterweight World Championship with a unanimous decision victory over Japanese veteran Akihiro Kondo (29-7-1, 16 KOs). The judges scored the fight118-110, 117-111 et 117-111.
The back-and-forth 12-round world championship fight saw Lipinets control the early rounds with a diversified, creative attack targeting Kondo’s body. An accidental clash of heads in the sixth round, which opened up a deep cut on the forehead of Lipinets, altered the momentum of the fight as Kondo gained confidence and was able to land some powerful punches to the head and body of Lipinets. The 28-year old Lipinets, who earned the title in just his 13e professional fight, was able to regain control in the later rounds to earn the unanimous win.
I think the scorecards were accurate but it was a good fight,” Saïd Lipinets. “The head-butt really impaired my vision and it led to me walking into some stupid shots.
I’m happy with my performance. I’m just going to keep getting better from here. I’m ready to take any on challenge thrown my way.
Kondo, who was fighting for the first time in the United States, proved a worthy opponent on the night. “It was a fair decision,” said Kondo, through a translater. “He hit me with a lot of hard punches and I felt like I needed at least a knockdown in the last round.
I made up my mind that I wasn’t going to show any pain or fear from his punches. I was determined to keep fighting all night.
