WBO: N MAAILMAN KESKIPAINO
LEHDISTÖTIEDOTE

LONTOO (Heinäkuu 17, 2017)–WBO Keskisarja maailmanmestari Billy Joe Saunders puolustaa kruununsa toisen kerran New Yorkia vastaan Willie Monroe Jr. päällä Lauantai, 16. syyskuuta Lontoon Copper Box Arenalla, livenä BT Sport ja BoxNation.

Hatfieldin Saunders (24-0, 12 KOs) voitti irlantilaisen sankarin Andy Lee ottamaan WBO-hihnan tiiviissä ja imevässä taistelussa joulukuussa 2015 joka näki voittamaton tähti kerroksessa entisen mestarin kahdesti kolmannella kierroksella ja vaati tuomareiden enemmistöpäätöstä.

Sarja vammoja johti turhauttavaan 2016 joukkueelle Saunders, mutta lopulta hän puolusti vyöään viime joulukuussa Artur Akavovia vastaan ​​Glasgow'ssa. Saunders ei ollut parhaimmillaan, mutta ylitti venäläisen pelin. Hänen oli määrä ottaa Avtandil Khurtsidze vastaan ​​ennen Georgian pidätystä kesäkuussa.

Monroe Jr (21-2, 6 KOs) on toinen mahdollisuus voittaa maailmanmestaruus IBF: ää vastaan ​​tehdyn kuuden kierroksen keskeytyksen jälkeen, WBA: n ja WBC: n keskisarjan maailmanmestari Gennady “GGG” Golovkin takaisin sisään 2015. Siitä lähtien 30-vuotias on voittanut kaksi päätöstä John Thompsonista ja Gabriel Rosadosta ja omistanut WBO: n viidenneksi maailmanluokan.

“Olen iloinen tästä maailmanmestaruusmahdollisuudesta,” sanoi Monroe Jr.. “Olen aina kuntosalilla ja olen valmis lähtemään nyt; Elän elämää. En voi odottaa, että voin esiintyä Lontoossa. Saunders on hyvä taistelija ja kelvollinen maailmanmestari, mutta tulen tuon vyön mukaan.”

“Annoin hyvän selityksen itsestäni Golovkinia vastaan, mutta myönnän, että sain kiinni hetkestä. Billy Joe on saanut uransa aikana paljon ylellisyyttä, jota minulla ei ole ollut. Kaikki hänen taistelut ovat olleet täällä hänen omalla takapihallaan, hänen ei ole tarvinnut mennä Lion's Deniin todistaakseen itsensä. Hän kutsuu minua henkisesti heikoksi, mutta tulemme siihen 16. syyskuuta.”

“Willie on hyvä taistelija ja hyvä nyrkkeilijä,” sanoi Saunders. “Tämä on hänen suuri mahdollisuus, eikä hän tule tänne vain muodostamaan numeroita. Hän on ollut yhdessä maailman parhaiden taistelijoiden kanssa, mukaan lukien Golovkin, jossa hän tuli lyhyenä.”

“Luulen, että siitä tulee hyvin tiukka taistelu, mutta minulla on jo henkinen etu häntä kohtaan. Hän sanoi, että hänet oli tehty Golovkinia vastaan, eikä soturi tee sitä. Haluaisin mieluummin tyrmätä kylmänä kuin lopettaa. Minulla ei ole vielä ollut mahdollisuutta näyttää todellista taitoani ja lahjakkuuteni ammattilaisena. Minulla ei ole varaa jättää häntä huomiotta, ja olen elämäni parhaassa kunnossa 16. syyskuuta. Olen 100% saamme voiton.”

Artie Pelullo Banner Promotionsista sanoi: “Olen erittäin iloinen Willielle; tämä on hieno tilaisuus. Paljon asioita piti olla paikoillaan, jotta Willie saisi tämän taistelun. Saunders on loistava taistelija, ja tämän pitäisi olla loistava tapahtuma. Haluan kiittää WBO: ta sekä Frank Warrenia ja Billy Joe Saundersia tästä mahdollisuudesta.”
Lehdistötilaisuuden videokohdat kohoavat BT Sports

Saunders’ promoottori Frank Warren sanoi: “Billin on oltava pelinsä kärjessä saadakseen voiton 16. syyskuuta. Tämän taistelun voittajalla on puuttuva pala keskipainossa olevasta palapelistä, Canelo ja Golovkin haluavat molemmat WBO-vyön.”

“Jos Bill käy läpi tämän taistelun, ajamme kovasti Canelo vs.. Golovkin. Jos Golovkin voittaa, toivon, että voimme taistella joulukuussa, jos Canelo voittaa, se voi olla uusi vuosi. Billin on mentävä sinne ja todistettava asia, linjalla on paljon.”

Ilford Light-Heavyweight -tapahtumakuningas Anthony Yarde ja teini-ikäinen Heavyweight-tunne Daniel Dubois esiintyvät vauhdikkaassa alikortissa. Yarde otti WBO: n eurooppalaisen hihnan voittamalla ensimmäisen kierroksen KO voiton Richard Baranyista viime kerralla Copper Box Arenalla, kun taas 19 -vuotias Dubois väitti WBC World Youth Heavyweight -vyön vasta neljännessä kilpailussaan.

Alikortin yksityiskohdat ilmoitetaan pian.

LONG ISLAND, New York (Heinäkuu 16, 2017) – Once-beaten Jamal James (21-1, 9 KOs) scored a unanimous decision victory over former title challenger Jo Jo Dan (36-5, 19 KOs) sisäänPremier Boxing Champions päällä FS1 ja FOX Sports toimintaLauantai night from thenewly-renovated NYCB LIVE, home of the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum.
Standing 6'2″, James was intent on using his length to move around Dan and deliver jabs and power punches off of it it. He had success snapping the head back of Dan throughout the early rounds and built up a lead on the scorecards.
“My range was working perfectly,” said James. “I knew he was going to be tough and he was a little tougher than I thought.”
Dan got himself back into the fight after focusing on the body throughout the early rounds and was able to break through James’ guard to land effectively. The southpaw temporarily rocked James late in the sixth round and was able to pick up some momentum for the following rounds.
“I was catching him with nice clean shots, but he kept coming,” said James. “I knew he was going to keep coming forward. He started moving his head and made me miss a couple times. I was trying to avoid a big shot but he did get me with some body shots.”
Kuitenkin, James was able to stick to his game plan and had success over the final couple of rounds while fighting Dan in the trenches. Jälkeen 10 rounds of welterweight action, the judges scored the bout 99-91-, 98-92 ja 97-93 all for James.
Fighting on the undercard of his older brother Omar, Brandon Figueroa (13-0, 8 KOs) used high volume punching to dominate Fatiou Fassinou (28-7-3, 15 KOs) on his way to a unanimous decision victory in their junior featherweight contest.
“I knew that he was a flashy fighter that was going to have a lot of speed and movement,” Said Figueroa. “I tried to attack the body. He was a really tough opponent. He took all my best body shots.”
Figueroa had no problem trying to stand and trade with Fassinou as his superior speed and length allowed him to consistently land first. Fassinou’s awkward style included switching stances almost nonstop throughout the bout, and made it tough for Figueroa to sit down and deliver knockout blows.
“This was my first fight back in a while and I was happy to get the rust off,” said James. “Now I’m going to get back to work. I want to get at least one or two more fights this year and then really explode next year and set myself up to be a top contender.”
Kun taistelu jatkui, Fassinou slowed down enough to where Figueroa was able to trap him in the corner and deliver powerful blows throughout the last two rounds. Fassinou ended the night on his feet but all three judges gave the bout to Figueroa by scores of 79-73 ja 78-74 kahdesti.
“I wanted to break him down,” Said Figueroa. “He took my punches well. I think he won a round or two. I needed to catch my breath and I was hoping to stop him late. Suuntaan tai toiseen, I got the win and I’m happy.”

LONG ISLAND, New York (Heinäkuu 15, 2017) – Lyömätön Omar Figueroa (27-0-1, 19 KOs) returned to the ring in emphatic fashion with a third-round stoppage of former champion Robert Guerrero (33-6-1, 18 KOs) vuonna päätapahtuma Premier Boxing Champions päällä FOX jaFOX Sports Saturday night from the newly-renovated NYCB LIVE, home of the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum. The show was the first major boxing event to take place at the Coliseum in 31 vuotta.
The former world champion Figueroa returned to the ring after a 19-month layoff and hardly missed a beat, as he sent Guerrero to the canvas five times over the three rounds and became the first fighter to ever stop Guerrero.
“We knew that it was going to be tough to accomplish but I had obviously trained to get the knockout,” said Figueroa.” With my hands finally being healthy, we knew that it was actually possible.
After winning the first round on all three judges’ tuloskortit, Guerrero continued to fight Figueroa from the inside and attempted to punish him with power shots. Kuitenkin, it was Figueroa who landed the first decisive blow of the fight, a scorching left uppercut that sent Guerrero immediately to the floor.
“I haven’t fought this way in a long time because I didn’t have the power in my hands,” Said Figueroa. “I’ll always find a way to come out on top though.”
Figueroa continued to attack, putting Guerrero down for a second time with a body shot and once more with a glancing shot right before the end of the round. Guerrero looked to blitz Figueroa to start the third round and immediately had Figueroa cornered.
“After the first knockdown I knew that the instinct would kick-in for him and he’d go all out,” Said Figueroa. “I thought it was going to be over after the first knockdown of the second round but the ref let it keep going.
“I’ve been working since January so I’m going to take some time off,” continued Figueroa. “Then I’m going to get back into camp to get back to 140-pounds. I want to be back in the ring by the end of the year.”
The unbeaten fighter was able to turn the tide quickly however, putting Guerrero down twice more with strong flurries before referee Ron Lipton waved off the bout 1:34 pyöreään. Jälkeen bout, Guerrero was taken to Nassau University Medical Center for precautionary reasons.
Lyömätön 2012 US-. Jumalainen Marcus Browne (20-0, 15 KOs) continued to solidify his status as a world title contender with an electrifying stoppage of previously undefeatedSeanie Monaghan (28-1, 17 KOs) in the second-round of their light heavyweight battle.
Despite fighting in front of a friendly crowd in his native Long Island, Monaghan struggled from the start as a blistering left hand from Browne sent him to the canvas early in the first round. Monaghan was quickly in survival mode and was aided when referee Steve Willis halted the bout after deeming that Browne had connected with an accidental low blow while looking to finish his opponent.
“”I could tell that I hurt him, but I didn’t want to rush and walk into anything,” Said Browne. “I just took my time and allowed everything to fall into place.”
“It was an honor for me to represent Long Island,” said Monaghan. “I knew that it was a big task tonight. Marcus is even faster than in sparring. I’ll be alright though, I’m happy that if I had to lose, it was to a guy the quality of Marcus Browne.”
Monaghan was able to recover and eventually make it through the round, but Browne put his foot on the gas pedal to begin round two. Browne was able to trap Monaghan against the ropes and delivered a crushing series of body blows and chopping shots that caused Monaghan to hunch over. The onslaught eventually forced the referee to call a halt to the bout 40 sekunnin kierroksella.
“I’m honored and blessed to be a part of this event and I just want to move upwards and onward from here,” Said Browne. “I want a date with Adonis Stevenson next. It’s amazing to have this kind of exposure on FOX and FOX Deportes. I loved the opportunity to make new fans tonight.”
“Marcus has always been a fast starter,” said Monaghan. “He always comes out very fast. I thought I was ready for the speed, but he is very skilled. I think he’s going to go a long way.”
In front of a large contingent of his hometown fans, Adam Kownacki (16-0, 13 KOs) put on an impressive performance against his best opposition to date by scoring a fourth-round TKO of former title challenger Arthur Pin (20-3, 15 KOs) in their heavyweight showdown.
“I always knew that I had him,” sanoi Kownacki. “From the first shot I hit him in the body, I knew he didn’t have enough. My pressure was too much.”
The fight began with both men looking to impose their styles as Szpilka attempted to establish his jab and evade his opponent, while Kownacki tried to trap Szpilka in a corner where he could tee-off with power punches.
Despite his left eye swelling up after two rounds, Kownacki was able to take the first bit of momentum by connecting late in round three with a series of power shots that appeared to at least shake Szpilka up.
As the fourth round began Kownacki wasted no time, landing a big punch that caused blood to start pouring out of the nose of Szpilka. While the former title challenger tried to keep his distance, the heavier Kownacki was able to land a series of power punches that put Szpilka on the canvas.
“I have a great trainer and a great team that has gotten me into great shape,” sanoi Kownacki. “I have to give them all of the credit. Whatever he was doing, I was ready for.”
While Szpilka was able to get to his feet, Kownacki continued to keep the pressure on as another series of power punches, led by a strong right hand, sent Szpilka into a heap and forced referee Artur Mercante to stop the bout 1:37 pyöreään. Kownacki landed 42 percent of his power punches in the decisive fourth round.
“It took Deontay Wilder and Bryant Jennings a lot longer to get him out of there,” sanoi Kownacki. “But I still have things that I’m going to go back and fix. Once I improve those aspects of my game I think that a lot of people are going to know me.”
“He hit me once with a good shot and after that I just never recovered,” said Szpilka. “I think it was a left hook. I’m going to rest now. This was not how I wanted this to go and I’m very disappointed.”

MIAMI, Okla. (Heinäkuu 15, 2017) – Ivan Baranchyk went the distance with Keenan Smith in front of Baranchyk’s adopted hometown in the main event of a quadrupleheader featuring eight returning fighters perjantain ShoBox: New Generationfrom Buffalo Run Casino & Lomakeskus.

In a battle of undefeated fighters, the hard-hitting Baranchyk (15-0, 10 KOs) took advantage of a one-point holding deduction against Sims in the fifth round to earn the decision in his fifth appearance on the ShoBox series and six consecutive fight out of Miami.

“I’m happy to be fighting back home in Miami, I love to fight here,” said Baranchyk, who was happy with his win but displeased with his overall performance. “I came out too hard and tried too hard to knock Smith out. I really wanted to knock him out which is why my punches were wild.”

Seppä (11-1, 5 KOs) sealed his fate when he was deducted a point by officials after excessive holding throughout the first half of the fight. He became the 166th fighter to lose his undefeated record on the ShoBox sarja.

“They weren’t playing fair,” Smith said. “Anything that I did, the referee was on me. I was hitting him with clean body shots, and he kept telling me to keep them up, and then he took a point for holding. I don’t know what fight [tuomarit] were watching.”

The fight was a hard-hitting and physical affair from the beginning. Baranchyk came out swinging, landing just 21% of his jabs and 29% of total punches, edging out Smith who landed just 22% of his total punches.

“I came out too hard and tried to knock him out, which is why my punches were wild,” said Baranchyk.

Vuonna yhteistyössä ominaisuus, Rolando Chinea upset previously unbeaten former national amateur champion Kenneth Sims Jr. in a close majority decision.

“I was most confident after the second round of the fight, when I noticed he was sticking his tongue out and making certain gestures that showed he was tired,” Chinea said. “If I had to grade myself I would rate my overall performance as a B… I have a lot to improve on and my job here is never finished.”

Like Smith, Sims (12-1, 4 KOs) suffered the first loss of his career, becoming the 165th fighter to lose his undefeated record on the ShoBox sarja.

In the wild final round, the pair combined for 291 punches and 85 connects, but Chinea’s surge earned him the majority decision win.

“My body just didn’t respond tonight,” Sims said. “I am done at 140 kiloa. I just did not feel right from the opening bell. I am going to 147 kiloa. "

In the sixth round, Chinea took control and was the busier fighter against a fading Sims. While both fighters exchanged numerous punches in the seventh and closed the fight out with a flurry of activity, Sims clearly struggled at 140 kiloa.

In the wild final round, the pair combined for 291 punches and 85 connects, but Chinea’s surge earned him the majority decision win.

In the second fight of the night, Glenn Dezurn (9-0-1, 6 KOs) stepped up to the 121-pound super bantamweight division to go the distance with ShoBox veteran Adam Lopez (16-1-2, 8 KOs) in an action-packed eight-round slugfest that ended in a split draw. Both fighters were visibly disappointed by the judge’s decision.

“I thought I did enough to win,” said the still-undefeated Dezurn, who spars with his wife, women’s pro fighter Franchon Crews. “I’m just fortunate for this opportunity and hope [Lopez] and I can come back strong and fight again someday.”

The first round was a round of give-and-take where both Dezurn and Lopez landed and sustained an impressive amount of body punches. It was Lopez who originally appeared more subdued, foregoing the counterpunch as Dezurn worked the jab.

By the fifth round it was clear Dezurn was losing steam when Lopez began to break him down and force him against the ropes. Lopez went on to dominate the sixth and seventh rounds, when Dezurn, clearly out-fought, looked tired and began to lean over.

“After the first round, I dominated the action,” Said Lopez, who has now fought on ShoBox a record-tying six times. Ehkä [Dezurn] won the seventh, but I whipped him. I should have won the fight, this was a redemption for me. Once I got used to his speed, I feel I won rounds six to two. The whole fight, his back was against the ropes and I beat up his body.”

Trained by the famed Coach Barry Hunter, the still-undefeated Dezurn made a valiant comeback in the final round, where he came back to life.

“I thought it was fair,” Hunter said. “We came on in the middle rounds, and Glenn won the seventh and eighth to get us the draw. It all came down to the stretch and I thought we did enough to win those rounds.”

Vuonna avaaminen bout televisiointi, former knockdown-of-the-year candidate Joshua Greer Jr. (14-1-1, 6 KOs) stopped Leroy Davila (5-2, 3 KOs) after five rounds, when Davila’s corner called the fight at the conclusion of the fifth.

“The game plan was to box and hit hard, ja se mitä tein,” said Greer, who earned a memorable knockout against James Gordon Smith in his last ShoBox ulkomuoto. “I had to put on a good show. I will fight whoever has the belts. I want to fight for a world title.”

The 23-year old Greer landed a number of aggressive combinations that had Davila against the ropes from the onset. While Davila appeared to come alive in the second round, the 29-year old southpaw became stationary and had trouble recovering from a shot to the face that had him bleeding out of the left side of his nose and struggling for the second half of the fourth and the fifth. His corner called the fight just after the bell sounded, ending the fifth round.

The event was co-promoted by GH3 Promotions and Holden Productions.

Perjantain quadrupleheader will replay on Maanantai, Heinäkuu 17 at 10 p.m. JA/PT on SHOWTIME EXTREME and will be available on SHOWTIME on DEMAND® and SHOWTIME ANYTIME®.

Here is what Flores had to say about training camp, his matchup and more:
On his recent training camp:
“I’ve had a tough training camp with a lot of hard, but smart training. I stepped up my strength and conditioning, in addition to going back to the basics. My coach, Aaron Navarro and I, agreed that it would be best to focus on the fundamentals of boxing. I’m in great shape and plan on performing at a high level.”
On his matchup with Chris Avalos…
“At this level in my career there are no easy fights. Chris Avalos has been in the ring with some of the best fighters in the world and I’m expecting a grueling fight. I know he’s coming to win, but I believe I have the skills to come out on top. It’s going to be one of those hard-fought fights that the fans can appreciate.”
On returning to FS1 and FOX Deportes in another tough fight after suffering his first defeat:
“Fighting in the main event on FS1 and FOX Deportes is exactly what I need right now. It was definitely a hard learning experience suffering my first loss, but one that I took in stride. No fighter ever wants to suffer defeat, but it’s what that fighter does to get back on top that matters. Looking back, I know what I must improve on and everyone will see that improvement against Avalos. It’s very important for me to be fighting in front of a nationally televised audience, because I want to show the world that I have what it takes to get back into world title contention. This type of fight brings out the best in me and my warrior spirit will be shinning on fight night”

NEW YORK (Heinäkuu 13, 2017) – Heidän menestyneen maailmankiertueen sahanyrkkeilylegendansa kolmas päivä Floyd Mayweather ja UFC-supertähti Conor McGregor jatka kauppaa sanallisilla töksillä, kun globaalit tähdet kohtasivat kasvotusten yli 13,000 fanit Barclays Centerissä edellä heidän Elokuu. 26 Showdown SHOWTIME PPV:llä T-Mobile Arenalta Las Vegasissa.
Los Angelesin ja Toronton paikkojen täyttämisen jälkeen, sähköinen väkijoukko tervehti kahta hävittäjää torstaina, kun Mayweather ja McGregor jatkoivat siitä mihin jäivät, kahden yhä kamppailevamman lehdistötilaisuuden pohjalta Tiistai jaKeskiviikko.
Maailmankiertue päättyy perjantaina kun taistelijat matkustavat SSE Arenalle, Wembleyllä Lontoossa.
Tässä on mitä taistelijoita oli sanottavaa torstai:
FLOYD Mayweather
“Tiesin, että tästä tulee valtava tapahtuma. Meidän piti antaa ihmisille se, mitä he halusivat nähdä, ja jos rikkoisimme PPV-ennätyksen, aion rikkoa vain oman ennätykseni.
“Olen vain kiitollinen, että olen tässä asemassa. Olla tässä iässä ja kilpailla nuoria vastaan, se on siunaus. Hän on isompi, hänellä on pidempi ulottuvuus ja minä olen ollut passiivinen. Lisää, emme ole koskaan nähneet hänen menettävän pystyssä. Hän tuntee olevansa paras. Olin paras kilpaillessani. Joten luulen, että minun piti palata tähän viimeiseen hurraan.
“Vaikka en ole kilpaillut nyrkkeilyssä, sinulla on edelleen nuoria miehiä, jotka kutsuvat minua koko ajan. Jopa MMA-taistelijat kutsuvat minua.
“Asiani on, että joko aion saada hänet, tai hän saa minut. Tulos tulee olemaan se, mikä tulee olemaan. Kun sinulla on sellainen ajattelutapa, sinä tulet pärjäämään. Hän tulee luokseni ja minä tulen hänen luokseen.
“Kukaan ei tunne sitä neliöympyrää kuten minä. Tiedän kulmat. Tiedän missä koskettaa sinua. Tiedän mistä et pidä. Minun ei tarvitse katsoa nauhojasi. Se on asia, jolla minua on siunattu. Mutta, hän on epätavallinen. Joten se on varmasti jotain erilaista kehässä. Minun täytyy vain säilyttää malttini.
“Minun täytyy puolustaa amerikkalaisia ​​ja amerikkalaisia ​​taistelufaneja. Hän edustaa maataan ja minä punaista, valkoinen ja sininen. Edustan kaikkia tässä maassa.
“Olen tehnyt tätä 21 vuotta viidessä punnitusluokassa. En ole koskaan lopettanut.”
CONOR MCGREGOR
“Floydin sanominen, että hän tyrmää minut, on koko kiertueen hauskin kommentti. Toivon, että hän tulee hakemaan sitä ja toivon, että hän tuo sen. Olen valmis kaikkeen ja ennakoin mitä tahansa hän tuo.
“Olen hyvässä kunnossa, siksi en käytä paitaa. Olen nyt taistelukunnossa. Minulla ei ole tällä hetkellä merkkiä vartalossani. Aion olla 100 prosenttia taisteluiltana.
“Minulla on erittäin korkea taistelu-IQ. Ymmärrän milloin mennä ja milloin ei. Vain minä ja vastustaja näemme nämä yksityiskohdat. Olen hyvin varma, onko se kehässä vai kahdeksankulmiossa.
“Kierrokset ovat kaksi minuuttia lyhyempiä kuin olen tottunut ja toimintaa on paljon vähemmän kuin mihin olen tottunut. Hänestä tuntuu kuin hän painiisi karhun kanssa, kun sitoudumme ensimmäistä kertaa. Hän on liian pieni. Tulen pärjäämään hänen kanssaan.
“Tiedän jokaisen laukauksen, jonka hän heittää. En tiedä mitä odottaa. Hän taistelee joka kerta samalla tavalla. Joten valmistaudumme. Mutta hän ei tiedä minusta mitään. Hänellä ei ole aavistustakaan, kuinka aion lähestyä häntä.
“En ole kyllästynyt tähän. Se on todella hauskaa. Pidämme sen toistaiseksi ammattimaisena. En voinut koskaan kyllästyä tähän. On hienoa aikaa olla taistelufani.
“Floyd puhuu paljon minusta, mutta hänellä ei ole koskaan ollut todellista taistelua. Hän ei tiedä mitään pelistä, jossa olen mukana. Katsotaan kuka lopettaa Elokuu. 26.
“Palatakseni tänne New Yorkiin, jossa tein historiaa ja minusta tuli ensimmäinen UFC-historian taistelija, joka on voittanut tittelit samanaikaisesti, Olen hämmästynyt tuesta.”
