Atlantic City, NJ (Maart 7, 2017)–Super Middelgewig Gabriel Pham will look for his 2nd consecutive impressive performance when he takes on Chauncey Fields in the co-feature bout of a 9 bout card Saterdag aand by die Claridge Hotel in Atlantic City.
The Show is promoted by Rising Promotions.
Pham of Pleasantville, New Jersey het 'n rekord van 7-1 met 3 uitklophoue, and is coming off an explosive 2nd round stoppage over Jose Valderrama on January 28th at The Claridge.
“Alles is groot,”said Pham.”I am getting sharp, and working on my quickness and reflexes. “I have been training the whole time. I went right back in the gym on the Maandag after my last fight.”
Fields is a late-replacement, so that took some last minute studying for Pham.
“Ek weet hy is 4-1, so he knows how to win, but I am ready to fight anyone. After the loss that I suffered, I can’t be picky on who I am fighting.”
After dropping a unanimous decision to Christopher Brooker on July 9, 2016, Pham has been working very hard to continue on the winning track.
“I have been doing a lot more roadwork and sparring. Sedert 2010, I have had only 4 gevegte, so the sparring has been helping getting the rust off. Things are coming along and I am on my way.”
“This fight should not be the toughest fight, but am expecting it to be. I am just looking to sticking to the gameplan, which is hit and not be hit, and everything should be good Saterdag. I just want to thank my manager Rich Masini, Rising Promotions and The Claridge.”
In die belangrikste gebeurtenis, Anthony “Sap” Young (15-2, 6 KO se) of Atlantic City takes on Samuel Amoako (21-13, 15 KO se) of Silver Spring, MD in a 8-round welterweight bout.

In die ShoBox mede-funksie, top-10 ranked bantamweight contenders Antonio Nieves (17-0-2, 9 Uitklophoue), van Cleveland, and Russia’s Nikolay Potapov (16-0-1, 8 Uitklophoue) will put their undefeated records on the line in a 10-round matchup for the NABO bantamweight belt.

Here’s what the fighters had to say op Woensdag:

 

Claressa Shields:

“I started boxing at age 11 and all I really wanted was an opportunity. This is one of those big opportunities.

 

“Her having 124 professional rounds doesn’t mean anything to me. Her being 15-8 met 6 KOs doesn’t scare me either. But I am glad she took the fight and didn’t pull out.

 

“She’s a challenge and, op papier, she’s not supposed to be someone that I can just walk through. But I’ve been in training camp for three months and I had a great training camp.

I’m not going to let her beat me in front of my family. I’m not going to let her beat me in front of my nephews and cousins and my mom and dad. I just don’t roll like that.

 

“If she doesn’t have the talent and skill to go six rounds with me, she will not go six rounds. So, I hope she had a very good training camp. I know I did.

 

“This is the first time that a woman has been the main event on SHOWTIME and I’m not coming to make women look bad when I get in there on Maart 10."

 

Szilvia Szabados:

"Ek is gereed om te veg. I’ve been waiting a long time for this fight. I feel good and I’m in great shape.

 

“I think everyone has a destiny in life and I’m glad I chose to be a boxer. This is a huge opportunity for me and I plan to take advantage of it.

 

“I know she has the amateur experience, but I have more experience as a pro. We’ll see what’s more important Vrydag."

 

Antonio Nieves:

“I trained and did everything I have to do. I’m ready for war.

 

“Coming out of Cleveland, nobody gives us a chance. We have to fight for everything we get.

 

“I respect Potapov. Hy is 'n goeie vegter. He said he’s going to take my belt? He’s going to have to take it from me. I’m here to fight. I’m not going to just give it up. Come try and take it.

 

“When I get in there Friday, dit is alles sake. I respect him – I don’t have any problems with him as a person.

 

“I’ve fought a lot of Russians and Europeans. They’re straight-up, come forward, and try to put on a lot of pressure. They bring the fight and I’m ready for that. I’m ready for anything he brings to the table.

 

“Anything can happen in a fight, but I’m focused and ready and I know what I have to do. I’ll be able to adjust to whatever he brings.”

 

Nikolay Potapov:

“I will be a much more aggressive version of myself for this fight. I trained to be very aggressive. I have a lot of surprises in store for Antonio Nieves.

 

“I learned a lot training at Kronk and I’m very ready. I had a great training camp and I really enjoyed living here in Detroit.

 

“In Russia, there is a traditional Russian style. Over here, it’s totally different. The American style is much more aggressive. I loved training with Javan SugarHill Steward at Kronk and learned a lot.”

 

Wesley Tucker:

“I come to fight every time and everybody knows when I fight, it’s fireworks.

 

“He may be from here, but Detroit is my home, te. And I’m planning on winning here at home.”

 

Ed Williams:

“I’m glad to be home. I had a great camp and it’s going to be a hell of a fight.

 

“Wesley Tucker is coming to fight, but I’m home. You don’t let nobody take you at home. Dit is dit.

 

“He may be in for a short night. Or a long one. We’ll see.”

 

James Gordon Smith:

“I’m knocking you out. I’m not here to play games. I’m coming straight for you. I bet you I knock you out.

 

“You can’t punch. What are you going to do?

 

“I’m coming to throw bombs, so I hope you trained for this because I’m going to knock that smile off your face. Your coach can’t fight for you.”

 

Joshua Greer, Jr.:

“I’m ready. You’re getting knocked out. We didn’t come here to lose.

 

“This is a fight I’ve been waiting for. Ons is gereed. Soos Vrydag, I hope he’s ready, too.”

I’ve had the WBC belt before and I’m itching to get it back. I beat the man who had taken it away from me in my last fight and I’m going to take down anyone who gets in my way. I know Shawn is going to work hard for this one, but so will I. I’m looking forward to this one, you don’t want to miss it.”

An exciting and accomplished fighter from Florida, Berto represented Haiti in the 2004 Olympics but now trains in Oakland with the renowned Virgil Hunter, who led him to a thrilling victory in April 2016 as Berto scored a fourth-round knockout of former champion Victor Ortiz in their rematch. Berto previously challenged retired legend Floyd Mayweather in September 2015 and has engaged in numerous Fight of the Year-worthy bouts including a 2012 war with Robert Guerrero and his first fight with Ortiz. He has twice held a welterweight title, first the WBC belt, which he successfully defended five times between 2008 en 2011, plus the IBF crown he picked up in 2011 with a victory over Jan Zaveck.
A physically-gifted fighter who had a strong amateur career, Porter returns to the ring at Barclays Center after a close loss to Keith Thurman in June 2016 that garnered unanimous Fight of the Year consideration. The 29-year-old had previously become a welterweight world champion at Barclays Center when he defeated Devon Alexander in 2013 in Brooklyn before defending the title with a dominant stoppage of Paulie Malignaggi. Die Akron, Ohio-native now lives and trains in Las Vegas and he bounced back from a previous defeat to Kell Brook to knockout Erick Bone and earn a unanimous over four-division world champion Adrien Broner in 2015.

“Everything went well in training. Potapov is a solid fighter but I believe giving him some movement and coming in from the side is really going to help me get the victory in this fight. Ek is 100 persent gereed. I’ve been focused on one guy the entire camp and I’m ready to get in there and get the win.
“We tried to get sparring partners that imitate him as much as possible, so when I get in there with him, there’s no surprises, but basically, I’m just going to stick to what I know.
“A victory means a lot. We’re two undefeated fighters on the verge of a world title shot. A victory over this guy would put me to the stage of being in line to fight for a world title, so this win means a lot.”
Nikolay Potapov
“I had a great training camp in Detroit at Kronk gym with Javan SugarHill Steward. It’s been a great learning experience for me. Die opleiding, intensity, sparring, living conditions have been superb.
“This is the most important fight of my career. Antonio Nieves is a very skilled, high-level fighter. I am focused on making a statement on Maart 10, and showing that I am one of the best bantamweights in the world.”

“Opleiding gaan groot,” said Halili. “Ek is skerp gevoel. I’ve haven’t taken any breaks since my last fight. After every fight, I take two days off and I’m back in the gym.”
Halili, who recently won THE RING Magazine’s “Round of the Year 2016” for the second round of his super welterweight war against Jason Thompson last Mei 27, says he’s ready for his first career main event, against Batista.
“It feels good to be fighting in the main event. I’m prepared to go in and take care of business. I’ve got a full house coming, including my Albanian fans. There should be a couple hundred of them there. They yell and scream and go crazy at my fights. I love it.”
With every fight, 26-year-old Halili is building a reputation as one of boxing’s most exciting new fighters, a reputation he says he doesn’t chase deliberately. “It’s just natural,” he explained. “You can’t try to be an exciting fighter. That’s not it. I’m a power puncher and if I feel like I’m losing, I go off and do something crazy and things seem to fall into place; like they were meant to happen.”
Halili says he’s aware that Batista has a reputation of his own.
“I know he’s a very dirty fighter. Every fight I watch of him, he’s low blowing somebody four or five times a fight. But boxing is a rough sport and I can learn a lot from him before I get him out of there. I’m prepared to go the distance, but I think I can knock him out. I just have to stay focused and not let him get in my head. If he hits me low I can’t lose my focus. That’s what he wants.”
After about 30 amateur fights with mixed success, Halili says he decided to listen to the people telling him his style was more for the pros… a decision he’s now glad he made.
“Soon as I turned pro, I started doing better. People were telling me I’d make a great pro because I set up my opponents. Op die eerste, I turned pro just to give it a try But then when I started doing good, my confidence skyrocketed and I began to believe I can really do this.”
Also featured at SUPER BRAWL® III will be Halili’s promising brother, super welterweight Enver Halili (8-0, 2 Uitklophoue), in a six-round appearance, as well as the long-awaited professional debut of Hasim Rahman Jr., son of former undisputed and two-time Heavyweight World Champion Hasim Rahman Sr., in a four-round heavyweight bout.
On the exciting undercard will be Baltimore welterweight Malik Hawkins (10-0, 7 Uitklophoue) and Baltimore super featherweight Glenn Dezurn (8-0, 6 Uitklophoue) in afsonderlike voorvalle. All un-named opponents are TBA.
