Pulev out – Takam in for Joshua clash

IBF install Frenchman as mandatory for Oktober 28 showdown

Carlos Takam has replaced Kubrat Pulev as the IBF mandatory challenger for Anthony Joshua at Principality Stadium in Cardiff on Oktober 28, live on Sky Sports Box Office.

Frenchman Takam is rated at number three with the governing body and has been on the hunt for a showdown with the British star, and gets his golden chance at ripping away Joshua’s titles in the Welsh capital after Pulev picked up a shoulder injury in sparring.

“I received a call from Kalle Sauerland late afternoon to inform me that Pulev had injured his shoulder and maybe ruled out of the fight – this was later confirmed by his doctor,"Sa promotor Eddie Hearn. “IBF rules state that the mandatory will go to the next fighter in line which is Carlos Takam.

“When the Pulev fight was announced I made a deal with Takam’s team to begin camp and be on standby for this fight. When I called them this evening they were overjoyed and good to go. It’s a difficult position for AJ having prepared meticulously for the style and height of Pulev, he now faces a completely different style and challenge in Takam – this hasn’t happened in his career before but he is ready for all comers on Oktober 28."

Joshua’s clash with Takam is part of a huge night of action in Cardiff where the 2012 London Olympic Gold medal man’s bitter foe Dillian Whyte aims to take a giant step to his first World title shot by facing Robert Helenius for the WBC Silver strap.

Kal Yafai defends his WBA Wold Super-Flyweight title against Japanese mandatory challenger Sho Ishida and Irish sensation Katie Taylor challenges for her first World title as she takes on two-weight World champion Anahi Esther Sanchez for the WBA Lightweight crown.

ERISLANDY LARA, JERMELL Charlo & JARRETT HURD SUCCESSFULLY DEFEND 154-POUND TITLES IN WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP TRIPLEHEADER SATURDAY ON SHOWTIME® FROM BARCLAYS CENTER

Lara Outpoints Terrell Gausha, Charlo Scores Stunning Knockout Of Erickson Lubin & Hurd KOs Austin Trout In SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING Event

BROOKLYN (Oktober. 15, 2017) – WBA Super Welterweight World Champion Erislandy Lara knocked down previously unbeaten Terrell Gausha en route to a 12-round unanimous decision in the main event of SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXINGLørdag on SHOWTIME at Barclays Center.
The Premier Boxing Champions event featured three world title fights in the stacked 154-pound division, a lineup including five fighters ranked in the top 10, and four in the top five.
The southpaw Lara used a precise jab to set up a sharp left hand in the sixth defense of his world title. The supreme technician, known for his elusiveness, put on a clinic as expected. He fought mostly in the pocket and picked apart the 2012 US-. Olympian Gausha, a Cleveland native getting his first shot at a world title.
Lara landed 45 percent of his power shots and threw 200 more total punches in the bout that was scored 116-111 og 117-110 to ganger.
We want to give a lot of credit to Gausha. He’s an Olympian and he came to fight,” Lara said. “I take the rhythm of the boxing match and that’s when I take over. He’s fighting with the best in the division. He’s not a stupid fighter, but he knew who he was facing today.
I’m ready to box anyone that comes my way. I’m the best boxer at 154 pounds and I won’t shy away from anyone that wants to fight me. I’ll box whoever, just line them up. I’m not afraid. I have proven that I’m a true champion. I’ll fight (Jermell) Charlo if I have to. We are friends, but business is business.
One of the most anticipated fights of the year lasted only 2:41 seconds as WBC Super Welterweight World Champion Jermell Charlo knocked out Erickson Lubin with a brutal right uppercut to the chin in the opening round in the second of three 154-pound world title fights. VIDEO: http://s.sho.com/2yoXIU6
While the matchup of young, undefeated Americans was regarded as one of boxing’s best fights in a year of marquee matchups, Jermell Charlo had other plans. After feeling each other out Charlo, the twin brother of undefeated former champion Jermall, unloaded a strong right uppercut that the highly touted Lubin leaned into. With Lubin struggling to return to his feet, referee Harvey Dock waived off the contest and helped a dazed Lubin return to his corner.
They were giving him a lot of attention,” a fired up Lubin told SHOWTIME Sports reporter Jim Gray. “I was quiet the whole time. They said they were going to come take my title. I had to defend it. They didn’t know what I was brining into this and I think (Lubin) was worried about the wrong things.
We’re going to unify. The other champions want to fight me and I’ll take any of them. Give me another title. I want Hurd. Hurd just won. Give me Hurd.
The 22-year-old Lubin, boxing’s consensus 2016 prospect of the year, had his hopes of becoming the second youngest titlist in boxing dashed in less than three minutes.
I’m fine. He caught me with a blind shot. I didn’t see it coming. He landed it. I felt like when I got up I could have kept fighting, but it’s boxing. It happens.
I’m young and I’m hungry. I know I’m one of the best out there. He caught me with a blind shot that I didn’t see. Like I said, it’s boxing. I’m just going to remain hungry, get back in the gym and become the champion I know I am.
I’m young and have plenty of fight left in me. This is just a minor setback. I’ll be back sooner than later and hungrier than ever.
IBF Junior Middleweight World Champion Jarrett Hurd became the first person to stop veteran former champion Austin Trout with a 10th round technical knockout in the first defense of his world title in the opening bout of the SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast.
The 27-year-old Hurd did what Miguel Cotto, Canelo Alvarez, Erislandy Lara and Jermall Charlo could not after the ringside doctor stepped in to stop the bout following a brutal closing 20 sekunder av 10th frame.
The Accokeek, Md., native often neglected defense in the early rounds and fought back after a slow start to wear down the toughest opponent of his career. The championship affair shifted in the sixth as Trout tired and Hurd picked up his output of power shots despite a bloody cut over his left eye. Trout was practically saved by the bell in the 10thround and trainer Louie Burke did not protest as he was advised that the fight should be stopped.
It’s most definitely tougher to defend the title than win it,” Hurd said. “I’m always the one that comes on stronger at the end of the fight. We knew we were going to wear Austin Trout down in the later rounds and eventually stop him. My cut made me a little better with my head movement.
Team Swift, we don’t run from anyone. I’m ready to unify. 2018 is the year for unifications. It doesn’t matter who it is. I’m ready to fight anyone.
Hurd had a 89-31 edge in power punches landed over the last three rounds and connected on 43 percent of his power shots over 10 runder.
Trout was taken to Lutheran Hospital for observation after the bout.
Lørdagens sendingen vil spille på Mandag, Oktober. 16 ved 10 pm. OG/PT på SHOWTIME EXTREME og vil være tilgjengelig på SHOWTIME on demand® og SHOWTIME ANYTIME®.

FJERVEKT CHAMPIONS LEO SANTA CRUZ & ABNER MARES SCORER SEIRER FOR Å SETTE OPP VERDENSMESTERSKAPET I 2018

CARSON, CALIF. (Oktober 14, 2017) – Verdensmestere i fjærvekt Leo Santa Cruzog Abner Mares var begge seirende i sine Premier Boxing Champions på FOX og FOX deporteres kamper lørdag kveld fra StubHub Center i Carson, Calif. og satte offisielt opp en omkamp om verdensmesterskapet mellom de to populære mesterne i Sør-California tidlig 2018.
“Jeg vil ha Abner Mares,” sa Santa Cruz. “Jeg sa hvis vi begge vinner; vi skal kjempe. Jeg er klar til å kjempe mot ham i Los Angeles i begynnelsen av neste år.”
“Jeg er en helt annen fighter nå siden jeg begynte å jobbe med Robert Garcia,” sa Mares. “Vi kommer til å fortsette å vise det når vi kjemper mot Leo Santa Cruz.”
I hovedturneringen, Santa Cruz (34-1-1, 19 KOs) tok seg av virksomheten og forsvarte tittelen sin ved å stoppe Chris Avalos (27-6, 20 KOs) i den åttende runden.
“Han var veldig tøff og jeg kjempet feil kamp,” sa Santa Cruz. “Jeg ville glede fansen og gi dem et slagsmål. En gang fortalte faren min hvordan jeg enkelt kunne stoppe ham, Jeg bokset ham mer og fikk stoppet.”
Santa Cruz brukte lengden sin effektivt og satte opp stikket mens han skjøt rett høyrehender mot Avalos’ hode. Avalos holdt seg tøff, men var i trøbbel i runde fire da Santa Cruz koblet til med en venstre krok som overveldet Avalos i hjørnet.
Avalos trakk seg opprinnelig tilbake, men da Santa Cruz kom frem ble han tvunget til å kjempe seg gjennom resten av runden og fikk mye straff. Alltid spill, Avalos fortsatte å slå tilbake og fikk slag da Santa Cruz forsøkte å gå ned motstanderen.
“Jeg trodde jeg hadde ham i fjerde runde,” sa Santa Cruz. “Jeg gasset litt, men jeg fikk luften tilbake senere. Jeg trodde dommeren skulle hoppe inn i løpet av den runden, men han lot ham fortsette.”
Endelig, i den åttende runden, etter flere strafferammer, dommer Thomas Taylor hoppet inn og stoppet kampen 1:34 inn i den runde. Selv om han var ute landet 282-169, Avalos trodde han kunne ha fortsatt i kampen.
“Jeg er veldig opprørt over stansen,” sa Avalos. “Vi kjempet hele tiden. Det var ingen grunn til å stoppe denne kampen. Jeg ble ikke såret som dommeren trodde. Jeg vil kjempe om tittelen igjen.”
Co-hovedbegivenheten så Mødre (31-2-1, 15 KOs)gjøre det første forsvaret av tittelen hans ved å slite ned og til slutt få en teknisk avgjørelse over Andres Gutierrez (35-2-1, 25 KOs).
Dommer Jack Reiss ringte på råd fra ringsidelegen midtveis i 10thrunde, som slo fast at Gutierrez ikke var i stand til å fortsette på grunn av et kutt. Selv om kuttet opprinnelig ble åpnet av et slag, kommisjonen fastslo at en serie utilsiktede feil førte til at kuttet ble verre til det punktet at kampen ble avsluttet, og en endelig dom ville avgjøres av målkortene.
Mares var skarp fra første stund, bruke stikket for å komme til Gutierrez og slå ut med kombinasjoner. Høyre hånd var et våpen hele natten, og i andre runde koblet han seg til skuddet som åpnet snittet under Gutierrez sitt venstre øye.
“Jeg fortalte alle at jeg var her for å komme med en uttalelse,” sa Mares. “Jeg hadde en tøff motstander og han viste hvor god han er. Det tok mange slag og mange store slag. Det var bare et spørsmål om tid før jeg stoppet ham.”
Gutierrez fortsatte å gjøre en sterk innsats og sluttet aldri å kaste slag, ved å bruke stikket sitt for å prøve å holde Mares i sjakk. Men, da kuttet ble verre gjennom kampen, Mares hadde lettere for å lande med å dunke høyre hender i ansiktet til Gutierrez.
“Jeg følte ikke at kampen burde vært stoppet,” sa Gutierrez. “Jeg såret ham like mye som han såret meg. Kuttene mine plaget meg ikke. Jeg vil kjempe mot ham igjen eller ha et nytt forsøk på tittelen. Jeg var forberedt på å kjempe til den siste klokken.”
“Jeg trodde de kunne ha stoppet det tidligere,” sa Mares. “Han er en ung fyr som var for modig for sitt eget beste. Jeg var fornøyd med avgjørelsen. Jeg fortjente stoppet, men jeg er glad for at jeg vant.”
Det var opphopningen av slag som til slutt tvang dommeren til å stoppe kampen. På tidspunktet for stansen hadde alle tre dommerne kampen til fordel for Mares, av score til 100-90 og 99-91 to ganger.
Åpningskampen av sendingen så en actionfylt åpningsrunde som endte i kontrovers som tidligere verdensmester Antonio DeMarco (33-6-1, 24 KOs)scoret en stopp i første runde av tidligere ubeseiret Eddie Ramirez (17-1, 11 KOs) i deres superlette affære.
Fighterne var uenige om beslutningen om å stoppe kampen av dommer Gerard White for å stoppe kampen.
“Den stansen var altfor tidlig,” sa Ramirez. “Jeg ble ikke skadet. Jeg kjempet tilbake og jeg følte at jeg kom meg. Jeg vil ha en umiddelbar omkamp hvis det er mulig.”
“Jeg synes det var en god avgjørelse fra dommeren,” sa DeMarco. “Han tok mange solide slag, og jeg følte at jeg hadde ham.”
Ramirez kom tidlig ut aggressivt og presset DeMarco mot tauene, ønsker å straffe ham med kombinasjoner. Men midtveis i omgangen, DeMarco koblet til med en rett venstre krok som overveldet Ramirez og satte DeMarco inn i angrepet.
Da DeMarco forfulgte Ramirez rundt ringen, han fanget ham i hjørnet og tvang Ramirez sine knær til å spenne seg. Ramirez klarte å holde seg på beina og så ut til å kaste seg tilbake, men dommeren hoppet inn og stoppet kampen 1:56 inn i runde en.
“Jeg er veldig takknemlig til Ramirez for at han tok kampen,” sa DeMarco. “Jeg tror store ting kommer for meg. Jeg skal snakke med teamet mitt og se hva som skjer videre. Jeg tror denne forestillingen vil slette mye tvil om meg.
“Jeg er en erfaren fighter og jeg var tålmodig. Jeg hadde gode forberedelser og ventet på det rette øyeblikket. Jeg føler meg bra akkurat nå.”
“Jeg vil ha en umiddelbar omkamp hvis det er mulig,” sa Ramirez. “Jeg skal snakke med laget mitt, men det var en dårlig stopp, og jeg vil ha en sjanse til å forløse meg selv.”

What other heavyweight is doing what I do? What other heavyweight has power like me? I don’t have to put you out in punches in bunches. I don’t have to do that. One punch. Goodnight.
I’m happy that I’ve had time to calm down and think about things. I’m happy that I’m fighting Stiverne because he’s my mandatory. I can finally get him out the way so I’ll be a free man.
This is the story of my life. Every situation that I’m put in, I try to be optimistic about. It’s easy to appreciate the good. But when the bad comes, some people don’t know how to manage that.
I’m the most frustrated guy around. Jeg forstår ikke. The best are supposed to fight the best, rett? I’ve always done that. I called (Wladimir) Klitschko out years ago.
People make so many excuses for my career. The one who is actually trying to make a legacy out of their career, he’s the only one that’s not complaining. The people who don’t have to get in the ring and endure this suffering are the ones that complaining.
Keith Thurman
I’m in the bounce-back stage. It won’t be long before I get back into the ring and hopefully my arm will be better than ever. We’re estimating I’ll be ready for a fight the first quarter of next year.
I look forward to continuing my legacy and dominating the welterweight division.
Everything happens for a reason. I’m 28-years-old and it doesn’t feel good to not be an active fighter while you’re in your prime.
I don’t think that I will take that level of a fight [against Shawn Porter] coming off my injury. I think we’re going to just get a welcome back fight. Throw the arm around, test it out, have an injury-free camp, take the momentum from that and we can possibly get in the ring with Shawn after that.
I look forward to that [potential] fight against Errol. I look forward to great competition and Errol is that. This is a fight that you guys have been talking about, you won’t stop talking about, and you should keep talking about it because when it goes down it will be one of the best fights of this generation.
Everybody knows there’s no Floyd Mayweather. There’s no Manny Pacquiao. Everybody thinks they know who the real champion is. But real talk is that the king of the welterweight division will manifest within one to two years.
“[Terence] Crawford has whacked up a lot of people, but he hasn’t whacked up a welterweight yet. He still needs to make himself relevant in this division. He’s a 140 ubestridte mester. He can come up to this weight division and fight anybody in the top 10 and he deserves that. But we are so flooded with talent he is going to have to make himself relevant at 147 before he gets his hands on us.
Errol Spence Jr.
“Jeg er glad for å være her, it’s been awhile. It’s finally time to defend my title, capture more titles and become the undisputed welterweight champion of the world. That’s what I’m ready to do next year.
“[Peterson] is somebody that I looked up to as an amateur. I sparred with him as an amateur and learned a lot from him. He’s one of my favorite fighters and is a guy that will fight anybody. I’ve never known him to duck a fight.
Lamont is a tricky fighter. He’s been around the block. He does a lot of cagey, veteran things. I’m looking to get experience in this fight. I’m still a young fighter.
Since I was 5-0, I’ve said I’d fight Keith Thurman or anybody in the top 5. He’s got to go through rehab, but I’m ready when he is. I’m always ready to fight the best.
