Další Sobota, Listopad. 4, WBC Heavyweight World Champion Deontay Wilder headlines a three-fight telecast when he faces former world champion Bermane Stiverne at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, NY.

Creative combinations and some inside fighting rarely seen from the rangy Joshua opened up a cut over Takam’s right eye and floored the challenger in the 4th. Později, Joshua opened another gash over the left eye but a bloody and battered Takam continued to press forward. Takam was able to land some significant punches in the middle rounds but not enough to take Joshua off his game.

V 10th, after Joshua landed several big punches including a left-right combination that rocked the courageous challenger, referee Phil Edwards stepped in and stopped the fight at 1:34.

“I kept my composure,” said Joshua when asked about a head butt in the second round that may have broken the champion’s nose. “We will get my nose cracked back into place and then we can get back to training.”

When SKY Sports’ ringside reporter Andy Scott asked the beloved champion about a unification bout with fellow undefeated champion Wilder, Joshua said, “It has to happen. It has to happen for sure. When it comes down to it, IBF, IBO and WBA have mandatory challengers. I can’t just fight any Joe Blow I want. I have to fight the obligations as champion and once I fulfill those, my door is open to fight anyone, be it Wilder or anyone else.

“Everyone saw how hard it took to get the belts,” he continued. “I am not giving them up for anyone.”

When asked about fighting overseas in America or elsewhere, Joshua replied to the delight of the U.K. Fanoušci, “As I said, it’s not my decision what happens outside the ring… but look at what boxing is doing. We are getting people coming in from all around the U.K. and from different countries. I think we should keep on boxing right here in the U.K.”

Porter hovořil ze svého tréninkového kempu v Las Vegas, zatímco Granados sdílel své myšlenky z tábora v Chicagu, jen něco málo přes týden, než půjdou od špičky k patě v Brooklynu:
SHAWN PORTER
“Tréninkový kemp dopadl velmi dobře. Většinu naší práce jsme udělali zde v Las Vegas a také trochu na Wild Card v Kalifornii. Nyní jsme na konci tábora. Každý den bude vzrušující, protože se zužujeme a připravujeme se na něj Listopad 4.
“V tomto bodě se cítím velmi dobře obeznámen s Granadem. Jednou v noci jsem sledoval asi tři nebo čtyři jeho zápasy a nějaké rozhovory a opravdu jsem si ho vložil do mysli. Je to agresivní bojovník, který se nedá snadno zranit nebo zklamat tím, co se děje v ringu. Ať už je to on, kdo dostane ránu, nebo když ho soupeř mine.
“Bude to velmi konkurenční boj. Klíčem k jeho poražení bude moje rychlost. Musím ho vybalit, přimět ho jít do několika těžkých výstřelů a nakonec ho vyřadit.
“Miluju Las Vegas, ale vždy jsem velmi nadšený, že dostanu příležitost bojovat v Barclays Center. Je to opravdu zábavná aréna. Energie tam není žádná. Naprosto miluji, když můžu bavit davy tam venku v Brooklynu.
“Jdeme po titulu WBC. Zaměříme se na Keitha Thurmana. Ten odvetný zápas chci uskutečnit někdy příští rok. Mimo to, jediný bojovník, na který myslím, je Danny Garcia, protože je to chlap, se kterým si myslím, že bych svedl vzrušující souboj.”
ADRIAN GRANADOS
“Vím, že mám styl přátelský k fanouškům a nutím svého soupeře bojovat bez ohledu na to, jestli bouchá nebo boxuje. Fanouškům a médiím jsem známý tím, že přináším vzrušující souboje. Bude to boj noci.
“Bylo to překvapení, když jsem dostal výzvu k tomuto souboji, ale skočil jsem hned po příležitosti dostat se do ringu se Shawnem Porterem.. Měl těsný souboj s Keithem Thurmanem a vyhrál nad Adrienem Bronerem, takže vítězství nad ním mě staví zpět do čela divize..
“Shawn bojoval 165 v amatéry, mnohem větší než já a dobře si ho pamatuji, byl také fotbalista, takže byl mnohem těžší. Od té doby, co se stal profesionálem, jsem trávil více času sledováním jeho zápasů a jeho studiem, zvláště v posledních několika týdnech s vědomím, že spolu bojujeme 147.
“Je pro mě lepší hned od začátku vědět, jaká je váha 147, předchozí tábor pro Bronera, ve kterém jsme začínali 142 a pak se musel přestěhovat 147 velmi pozdě v táboře. S vědomím, že to bylo 147 od začátku mi pomohl lépe se připravit na tento boj se Shawnem Porterem. Také mi pomůže, když budu v noci na boj o něco těžší.
“Trénink a sparing byly tady v Chicagu v Garfield Park Gym. Tábor byl úžasný, velmi hladké, zejména bez problémů s hmotností.
“Jsem velmi nadšený, že budu bojovat v Barclays Center a vím, že toto je spíše neutrální stránka. Vím, že Shawn je favorit, ale z boje v Brooklynu mám dobrý pocit. Dvakrát jsem byl v Barclays Center sledovat zápasy a jsem nadšený, že tam budu bojovatpříští sobotu noc.
“Kdybych vyhrál, Budu povinný získat pás WBC Keitha Thurmana a to je moje motivace. Očekávejte klasický „El Tigre“.’ výkon, žádné couvání, ne končit, klasický boxerský zápas.”

Joshua (19-0, 19 KO) returns for the first time since unifying the heavyweight division via knockout in a leading Fight of the Year thriller with long-reigning kingpin Wladimir Klitschko this past April.

 

“We’re going to have to put that Klitschko win to the side at some stage because boxing is unforgiving,” Joshua said ve čtvrtek. “That was that. This is now. Carlos is a completely different animal than Klitschko.

 

“Who knows what’s going to happen in that ring Sobota. This division is unpredictable. You saw I got tired in the fifth round against Klitschko. Am I going to find out I’m only a five round fighter? Takam is tough and can go the distance. He’s definitely going to take me into late waters and that’s where it’s going to be interesting.”

 

Takam (35-3-1, 27 KO) has experience in close bouts with reigning WBO Heavyweight Champion Joseph Parker and former challenger Alexander Povetkin. The 2004 Olympian from Cameroon enters the contest having boxed more than three times the professional rounds as Joshua.

 

“My experience will help me win the fight,” Takam said. “I’ve been in there with a champion. When we get in the ring it’s just two fighters. Only at the end of the fight will we know who the real world champion is.

 

“I saw Joshua go down. I saw he has a weak point, and we’ve been working on targeting that.”

 

Joshua and Takam meet 24 years after Lennox Lewis and Frank Bruno squared off in the first all-British heavyweight world championship in front of more than 25,000 fans at the National Stadium in Cardiff. There will be more than 78,000 at the new National Stadium – Principality Stadium – v sobotu.

 

Here’s what the fighters had to say ve čtvrtek:

 

Anthony Joshua

 

“Fighting is all I do. It’s all I know. It’s an honor to be defending these belts. I don’t always like to talk about the belts because I’ve always been a fighter before that and I’ve always had the ambition of being a talented fighter before I became champion. I’m just looking forward to getting in the ring and handling business.

 

“We’re going to have to put that Klitschko win to the side at some stage because boxing is unforgiving. That was that. This is now. Carlos is a completely different animal than Klitschko.

 

“I do know that I’m willing to do whatever it takes to win. In terms of style, technique and preparation, it’s completely different. Every camp is completely different. My mindset is completely different. All will be revealed Sobota. Best of luck to both men and the best man will win.

 

"[Trainer Rob McCracken] has never just trained me for one style of opponent. He’s trained me to be the best me. He’s trained me to be ready, to be fit, to be focused and to adapt new skills to my boxing. Bez ohledu na to, kdo je můj protivník, I’ll always be in good condition to compete against any champion or any contender in the world.

 

“We’re in the business of providing really good fights. We’re not here to tip and tap and run for 12 kola. We’re here to get stuck in.

 

“I know what it’s like to be the non-champion fighting for a championship. When there’s that pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, it’s going to be competitive. This is heavyweight championship boxing. Both of us are on the same elite level so you’re going to see an elite fight.

 

“Who knows what’s going to happen in that ring Sobota. This division is unpredictable. You saw I got tired in the fifth round against Klitschko. Am I going to find out I’m only a five round fighter? Takam is tough and can go the distance. He’s definitely going to take me into late waters and that’s where it’s going to be interesting.

 

“With [Takam’s] style and his strength, I wish I came into this fight heavier so we could just stand there and slug it out with each other. Why’d I come in lighter? I thought I was fighting Pulev – a real amateur-style boxer. I had to stay off the line, jab with him and match his speed. Takam is a completely different style of fighter so I might have come in a bit heavier if I knew I was fighting Takam.

 

“I’m just a reflection of hard work. The UK boxing scene is quite grassroots. I still go to my amateur club. Just before this championship fight, I was training with all the amateurs – kids that were just 10 let starý. You can only achieve what you see, so when they’re training with Olympians and professional World Champions, they’re inspired. That’s real nice to be the champion and still keep it real training with the grassroots athletes.”

 

Carlos Takam

“My experience will help me win the fight. I’ve been in there with a champion. When we get in the ring it’s just two fighters. Only at the end of the fight will we know who the real world champion is.

 

“I saw Joshua go down. I saw he has a weak point, and we’ve been working on targeting that.”

 

“I’m going to box my way. I’m going to come forward, fight my fight.

 

“I believe in myself. I’m confined. It wouldn’t be a shock if I won because of the confidence I have.

 

“When I heard about the fight, I was already in preparation for another fight so I had to completely change the way I trained to be ready for this fight. I’m coming out on the 28th to win the fight.

 

“All I can do is invite you to see the outcome of the fight on the 28th. I’m coming out to win.

 

“I know it’s going to be a great fight. This will change my life in boxing but not from the person I am.”
