Oxnard, Калифорнија: Вчера, WBO, WBA and IBF Light Heavyweight World Champion Sergey “Krusher” Kovalev (30-0-1, 26 КО) held an open workout for members of the media in advance of his upcoming “Pound For Pound” showdown on Ноември 19 against Andre “S.O.G.” Ward (30-0, 15 КО) at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas and distribute live by HBO Pay-Per-View. Also in attendance were Curtis “The Cerebral Assassin” Stevens (28-5, 21 КО) who will take on James “The King” De La Rosa (23-4, 13 КО) for the WBA Continental Americas Middleweight Title and Oleksandr “The Nail” Gvozdyk (11-0, 9 КО) who will face Isaac “Golden Boy” Chilemba (24-4-2, 10 КО) for the NABF Light Heavyweight Title on the Kovalev-Ward HBO Pay-Per-View telecast.

Sergey “Krusher” Kovalev

WBO, ВБА, and IBF Light Heavyweight World Champion

Ковалев: “I’m excited and everything is going good. I’m waiting for this day, Ноември 19, and I am ready to fight.”

 

SK: “I don’t have anything personal about him (Вард). I should to win this fight, I only have to prove (на) myself who I am. I am fighting for me first of all, and after this really for boxing fans. This is my boxing career since 11 years old and right now Andre Ward (е) in my way. And he wants to get my titles but I’m still alive.”

 

SK: “I don’t have any plans for each fight, just get into the ring and do my job. I must be ready for everything what he (Вард) will bring.”

 

SK: “I got some experience from my fight against Bernard Hopkins. He showed that never give up. That you should to fight all 12 rounds and hope for your win.”

 

Прашање: Do you expect Andre Ward will hold you and use his head?

SK: “Yes I think he will use it and I am ready for this too. It will be wrestling and not fight [се смее]."

 

SK: “I think he (Вард) will look much better in my fight Ноември 19 because he long time didn’t fight, couple years he had a rest and Sullivan Barrera was first fight when he returned. And with Alexander Brand he was better than against Sullivan Barrera. I accept that he’s going to look much better Ноември 19. In best shape.”

 

SK: “John (David Jackson) just gives me freedom to do what I want, what I would like to do. Знаеш, just like adjust some things and advice between rounds about technique. Working a lot with mitts. I like work with him and feel comfortable.”

 

SK: “I don’t think that Andre Ward (ќе) let me use a lot of body shots because he has great legs and a lot of movements. You know he’s very smart. And I think first part of this fight is going to be a lot mentally, but I should prove that I’m Krusher and that I’m going to do my job. He’s going to do his job, me to do my job.”

 

SK: “I think my last fight against Chilemba, it was like a similar fight you know, because Chilemba’s a little bit style as Andre Ward. But Andre Ward is Andre Ward, a little bit different and stronger, попаметни, undefeated and more motivated than Chilemba. I’m interested what he will bring Ноември 19 to the ring.”

 

SK: “We agreed two fights before our fight. I was ready last year to fight, but Andre wasn’t ready to fight without two fights at light heavyweight. We sign agreement that two more fights and then let’s fight in 2016.”

 

SK: “I work out morning time. After this some massage therapy, some treatments, after this some rest, little bit nap, cook the food, take a rest and go again to work out. Today two work outs, this was just the first. My plan was a little broke today because usually my first workout is morning time, but right now already almost 3часот. My interview is a workout [се смее].

Curtis “The Cerebral Assassin” Stevens

WBA Continental Americas Middleweight Champion

Прашање: Do you want David Lemieux and the rematches?

Стивенс: “We all know I want David Lemieux. Прашањето е, is he willing to fight me? Who else? Tureano Џонсон, he was winning the fight, but the fight wasn’t over until the final bell rung, and he got knocked out. Some people say it was a premature stoppage, but me, the ref say, you know… I want to be world champion. That was one of my goals, to become a world champion and become a unified world champion.”

П: How do you feel about being part of this big card?

CS: "Тоа се чувствува одлично. Second big card of the year. The first one was Canelo–Khan and now Kovalev–Ward. Opened up the first one and now I’ll open up the second one. It’s a great feeling, голем. I’m very honored. It’s a pleasure.”

 

П: What are your thoughts on De La Rosa?

CS: “A fight is a fight. You can call it a stay busy fight, you can call it a real, well it’s a real fight in general, but you can call it what you want to call it. A fight is a fight at the end of the day.”

 

CS: “I’m a different type of breed. I come from Brownsville. I’m just a different type of guy. What people fail to realize is that some people wasn’t raised how I was raised. Знаеш? I’m from an era where you sign up in the US Championships, the National Golden Gloves, you couldn’t pick who you wanted to fight. This isn’t a show fight; this is a tournament. First day you got your Andre Ward, you got Gennady Golovkin, you got your David Lemieux’s. I mean the first day! No finals, no nothing. I fought Ward three times, he gave me my first loss ever. Then the second time I fought him, it was a US Championship semi-finals, then the third one was the US Championship semi-finals again. You don’t know where you’re going to meet these guys at.”

 

CS: “I will always be the chin checkers, that’s what I do, I check in and I check out, I will always be that. I got rid of Showtime. Showtime’s a thing of the past, that’s when I was with my old team. I’m with JDJ now, I’m the Cerebral Assassin, I got to run this tight ship wisely, instead of recklessly. Wisely, get it?"

 

CS: “John (David Jackson) makes me more relaxed, знаете? Let my hands go a little more. Tells me l’m powerful in both hands, so don’t just look to go in there and knock them out.”

Oleksandr “The Nail” Gvozdyk

NABF Light Heavyweight Champion

Gvozdyk: When I first started boxing it was for getting stronger. Then I liked it and it became a hobby. Now boxing is everything. It is my life. It is my job. It is my hobby.

Прашање: A lot of people don’t know you yet. What would you like them to know about yourself?

OG: I would like to become popular in the ring. I do my best and they supposed to watch it. I hope they’re going to like me.

OG: My nickname is “The Nail” and that is just a translation of my last name. I have had this nickname since I was ten years old so I am used to that. When I came here everyone started to call me that.

П: Talk to us about your opponent.

OG: Chilemba is a very strong fighter. Very smart. He is skilled. He has good defense. It is not going to be easy. I am happy with my preparation so far and I am expecting a good fight.

П: Talk about the transition you made from amateur to pro.

OG: Whether it is amateur or pro boxing, it is still boxing. You just have to get used to some different timing. You have to learn to distribute your power for ten or more rounds. You have to get more power in the pros but basically it is the same.

П: Talk about your preparation for the fight and the dedication it takes in the gym every day to prepare to one day get to the level of Sergey Kovalev and Andre Ward.

OG: I think that if you want to be champion you have to train hard. You are supposed to do your best and train as hard as possible. If you want to be the best, you have to fight the best and you have to train with the best. That is what I try to do. Now Sergey and Ward have both proved that they are the best fighters and now they get to find out who is Pound For Pound #1. I watch them and I try to do the same steps to be like them.

П: Who do you think wins Kovalev-Ward?

OG: I think Kovalev wins. I know it is like 50-50 fight and it is a very interesting fight for me. It is a fight between intelligence and power.

Kovalev vs. Вард “Pound For Pound”, a 12-round mega-fight for the WBO/IBF/WBA light heavyweight title at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, is presented by Main Events, Roc Nation Спорт, Krusher Promotions and Andre Ward Promotions and is sponsored by the MGM Grand Hotel & Казино, Corona Extra, Zappos, JetLux and Monster Products.

WBC SILVER CHAMPION & WBC No. 1 RANKED LIGHT HEAVYWEIGHT ELEIDER ALVAREZ IN ACTION DEC. 10

ЗА ОБЈАВУВАЊЕ ВЕДНАШ
50

та CARD AT THE MONTREAL CASINO
Монтреал (Ноември 1, 2016) – На “Фитнес 2016-2017 BOXING SERIESat the Montreal Casino Cabaret, на PRESENTATION OF MISE-O-JEU, IN COLLABORATION WITH VIDEOTRON, will host its second card of the 2016 season and 50th since 2004 ЗА Сабота, Декември 10. Светскиот боксерски совет (Земјите од Западен Балкан) Silver champion and WBC #1 светлина тешка категорија кандидат, Eleider “Бура” Алварез (20-0, 10 КО), will face tough-as-nail Polish fighter NorbertNorasDabrowski (19-5-1, 7 КО).

Dabrowski, a southpaw who has never lost by knockout during his career, will come to Montreal to try and spoil the party. Во неговата последна турнеја, he shattered the perfect record of his countryman. Marek Matyja (11-0).
In his only fight outside of Poland, Dabrowski delivered a strong opposition May 2, 2015 to German Dominic Boesel (18-0), losing by a close 10-round unanimous decision (113-115, 111-116, 110-117) to a rival who was then and remains the World Boxing Organization (WBO) #2 rated light heavyweight in the world, како и # 8 the WBC.
Алварез, a Colombian Olympian at the Beijing Games, he won the WBC Silver light heavyweight title August 25, 2014 in Monaco, defeating South African Ryno Liebenberg (16-0-0). Јуни 12, 2015, во Чикаго, на Премиер бокс шампионите series event, Alvarez knocked out Ukrainian Анатолиј Dudchenko(19-3) во вториот круг.
“Бура” then faced strong opposition, Paraguayan slugger Isidro Prieto Ranoni (24-0-3), Август 15, 2015, на Бел центар во Монтреал. After a tough brawl, the Montreal’s adoptive son Alvarez was declared the winner by unanimous decision.

Alvarez went on to beat top contenderИсак Марк (24-2-2), на Малави, in a WBC light heavyweight elimination bout November 28, 2015, by way of a majority decision, at the Videotron Centre in Quebec City,
Во неговата последна турнеја, this pat Јули 29 at the Videotron Centre, Alvarez dominated solid New Zealand southpaw Robert Berridge (27-4-1) to earn a clear win by unanimous decision.
I am happy to come back to the Montreal Casino, where I had my first three pro fights,” Alvarez said. “I asked my team to keep me active and to also evaluate what I do well and what I do badly against southpaws. I want to be fully ready for Адонис Стивенсон and become the first Colombian light heavyweight champion of the world!,”
This coming fight will most likely be Alvarezlast outing before fighting Stevenson, the WBC light heavyweight world champion in 2017. Dabrowski is a strong and durable southpaw, who will be an excellent test for Alvarez before he faces the champion.
It was at the insistence of his team that Alvarez will jump in the ring on Декември 10,” GYM претседател Ивон Мишел забележа.
Waiting for his world title fight, Eleider is not afraid to risk his lofty position in the rankings to give himself the best conditions for success when his time comes. Dabrowski has never been stopped and gave the # 2 WBO ranked fighter all he could handle last year. He is also a southpaw. It is logical to anticipate a captivating fight on December 10th. We have an exciting card for our 50та event at the Montreal Casino. The boxing fans will be the big winners!”
A real challenge for Dicaire
The charismatic Marie-Eve Dicaire (5-0, 0 КО), of St-Eustache, Канада, will fight in the co-main event of the evening. She will face the biggest challenge of his career against former North American Boxing Federation (NABF) боксер од полусредна категорија шампион, Мексиканската PatyLa Elegante” Рамирез (11-2, 5 КО).
Интересно е доволно, the two boxers are ranked 11th in the world by the WBC: Dicaire at welterweight (147 lb), Ramirez at super welterweight (154 lb).
Marie-Eve will look to continue her strong momentum in the pro ranks. In her last outing (Октомври. 20), she delivered a stunning performance, also at the Montreal Casino Cabaret, where she clearly feels at home. She then defeated Mexican Karla Zamora (3-2-0) со едногласна одлука.
If she is successful, it will be her last six-round fight before moving to an eight- round bouts in February.
It is a close date for me since I fought October 20 but I am coming back from a week of vacation,” Dicaire remarked. “Значи, I am fully ready to start my training camp. My last fight was a war that the crowd really liked, where I gave a little more while neglecting my defense. For this bout, I am sure that I will be able to show my real potential.
In only her fifth bout,” Мишел додаде, “Marie-Eve was already world ranked. She will eventually fight for a world title having everything it takes to do so. Исто така,, women’s boxing has boomed lately, since females can box in the Olympic Games.
Lafrenière and Phinn also in action
If the Alvarez and Dicaire fights weren’t enough to guarantee a very entertaining evening Декември. 10, also scheduled to fight on the card are two very popular boxers in Quebec, Францис
Lafrenière и Shakeel Пен.
Lafrenière (12-5-2, 7 КО), the charismatic International Boxing Federation (ИБФ) International middleweight champion, will make his debut at the Cabaret du Casino. Наречен, “The People champ,” Lafrenière is known for his aggressive and uncompromising boxing style.
He first became Canadian middleweight champion June 28, 2014, in Lachine, by winning a unanimous decision over Paul Bzdel (5-4-1) from Saskatchewan. He then won his IBF International middleweight title in a furious fight last Јануари 30 against Quebecer Renan St-Juste (26-4-1) at the Bell Centre, which many consider the Fight of the Year.
Lafrenière is currently on a nine-fight win streak. He counts on extending it to 10 на Декември. 10. His opponent will be announced within days.
I had my first pro fight here at the Montreal Casino and I had a draw,” the optimistic Lafrenière commented. “Thanks to GYM for giving me the opportunity for redemption. I had a solid brawl with Renan St-Juste, but I am ready to deliver another one this bout.
Пен (10-1, 6 КО), the Canadian super middleweight champion,is a familiar face to the Casino boxing fans. A protégé of former boxer Ian MacKillop, he won his title last Февруари. 27 in Saskatchewan by defeating Paul Bzdel (5-7-1).
Во неговата последна турнеја, во октомври 15 in New Brunswick, Phinn knocked out New Brunswick fighter Tom Vautour (2-0). It will also be his second appearance at the Montreal Casino Cabaret this year having defeated Mexican opponent Jaudiel Zepeda (12-14-1) оваа минатото Мај 24.

Лукијан BUTE и Christian Ganescu protégés, Dario Bredicean (10-0, 3 КО) и Бруно Bredicean (5-0, 1 КО), повеќе Patrice Volny (3-0, 2 КО) from Montreal, will also be in action against opponents to be announced.
The galas at the Casino
GYM BOXING SERIES AT THE CASINO DE MONTRÉALis a formula that has been very popular from 2005 на 2010. During this period, no less than nine participants eventually became world champions. For its 13th year, GYM repeated this formula where the proximity of the action, the warm and electrifying ambiance, as the intensity of the fights, provide a unique experience.
Во прилог, at each gala, you will receive a private invitation to mingle with the athletes and observers in a bar of the Casino exclusively for this purpose.
Декември 10 will be the 50th event presented by GYM at the Montreal Casino.
Поранешниот светски шампион Јоаким Alcine (seven times), Otis Grant (four times), Leonard Dorin (once), Adrian Diaconu (once, BUTE (once), Жан Паскал (nine times), Дејвид Lemieux (14 пати), Вилијам Joppy (против Sebastien Demers), and the current WBC and lineal world light heavyweight champion Adonis “Супермен” Стивенсон (six times), have all fought at the Montreal Casino Cabaret.
The WBC super middleweight elimination bout between Otis Grant и LIBRADO Андраде (Април 8, 2006), and the spectacular clash between Херман Ngoudjo и Emanuel Augustus (Октомври. 15, 2005) are among the best memories for Quebec boxing fans.

OAKLAND, КАКО (Ноември 1, 2016) – On Monday, Октомври 31, 2016, Two-Time World Champion Andre “S.O.G.” Ward (30-0, 15 КО) participated in a media workout in Hayward, California ahead of his pound-for-pound showdown against WBO, WBA and IBF Light Heavyweight World Champion Sergey “Krusher” Kovalev (30-0-1, 26 КО). Kovalev-Ward “Pound For Pound” takes place Сабота, Ноември. 19 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Невада. На настанот ќе бидат произведени и дистрибуирани во живо од HBO pay-per-view почеток во 9:00 вечер. И/6:00 вечер. Португалија.

 

Ward put on a full workout session for the media in attendance, consisting of a series of shadow boxing, heavy bag, double end bag, speed bag and then stretching. Also on hand were youths from Camp Sweeney, Alameda County Probation Department’s residential facility in San Leandro, whom Ward spent time speaking with following the workout.

 

Below is what Ward had to say during the media workout:

 

ANDRE WARD, Two-Time World Champion:

 

“I feel that this fight with Kovalev is 50-50. That’s how I approach all of my big fights. I don’t go into the fight thinking, ‘I’ve got a clear-cut advantage here’ or ‘I’ve got to run through this guy.’ Personally, for me, I can’t roll like that. I’ve got to keep myself honest, stay on my grind, keep my head down and force myself to keep working. I truly believe Kovalev is everything they say he is, and I’m everything that I’ve shown over the years.

 

“There are always different game plans, nuances, different things you’re working on but I respect every fight that I fight. I don’t get caught up in the whole puncher thing, anybody can get you out of there if you get hit right. I don’t think I’d be sitting here in this position right now if I hadn’t had these highs and lows. We’ve got to find a way to get it done, and we’re going to find a way to get it done. I don’t care what he’s got in his gloves, who he’s knocked out or what he’s done. My job is to get my hand raised, and that’s what we’re focused on.

 

“I have days where I do some type of cardio in the morning – sprints, distant running – then go back to training camp to get some rest and eat. Then we come to the gym and spar and hit the heavy bag. It’s a monotonous process when you’re in training camp, and that’s pretty much every day. Of course we take days off to rest the body and be smart, but it’s really the same thing every day. As you get closer, you start to pull back a little bit so you don’t over train. That’s normally the week of the fight, so up until the Сабота пред борбата, you’re full steam ahead. 100 miles an hour.

 

“Typically, Virgil and I will go through our process together. He watches a lot more film than I do. He’s up until 3:00 изутрина.или 4:00 изутрина. watching film. As I’ve gotten older, I watch less film. I don’t need to see 10 fights to see tendencies and certain things. I know what I need to see. I may go back and watch a round here and there, but I try and leave room for my instincts. I’m very instinctual. You’ve got to be able to think on the fly thinking on the highest level. I leave room for that. It’s not a checklist you go down. You can’t get into a ring thinking like that. I just believe that who I am and what I have is enough, and that’s what I’m standing on.

 

“Having young guys like Shakur Stevenson around, it starts to make me feel old because I used to be that guy at Roy Jones’s camp, Floyd Mayweather’s camp, hanging around Bernard Hopkins. You see yourself in them. It’s a little weird, because you’re like, ‘man, now I’m the OG.’ But it’s also a beautiful thing because we need more of that. We need champions and top contenders and just fighters in general to open up the door and allow the young guys on the way to be shown how it’s done.

 

“I’m honored for Claressa Shields to say that I am her idol. I admire her story, what she’s come from, and think that she’s amazing in the ring. She’s the real deal. I watch her, I pick up things from her. For her to have two Gold medals is amazing. For her to make her pro debut on this fight card is a beautiful, beautiful thing. I think it’s a perfect situation.

 

“It’s a beautiful thing to be fighting in Vegas. Јас сум возбуден. What better time than now in this stage in my career. I’m just excited to continue to prepare so I can do my part to give the fans their money’s worth, those that pay to be there and those paying to watch it.

Here is what the participants had to say Tuesday:
ДАНИ GARCIA
“Тоа се чувствува одлично да се бори дома. This is what Philadelphia needed. We’re a fight town. I feel like people don’t know that all over the world. We have a great history and a lot of world champions from here, and they’ve been kind of been overshadowed. It’s an honor to be able to bring a fight back to these fans.
It’s very important to give back. I’m so happy to have the opportunity. With Thanksgiving and Christmas around the corner I’m sure we’ll be making a big impact. There are a lot of families in Philadelphia who really need it and I’m glad I can help.
I’m very lucky to be where I am. It takes a lot of hard work, but you also need the right timing. My dad and I had a vision. We never gave up on that vision. We’ve been through so much in life, we didn’t want to stop till we reached our goals.
The city of Philadelphia needs a champion. They need someone to give them a hometown show. There’s a lot of excitement with the Eagles and Sixers right now, and I’m going to give them another thing to cheer for.
It’s a very short trip for me to the arena so I’m happy about that. I feel comfortable. I’m in my own backyard. We’re planning to make sure Vargas is very uncomfortable.
I love seeing these young kids from Philadelphia on the card. I love giving them an opportunity to get fights in front of their hometown fans too. There are a lot of doors opening up for young fighters from Philadelphia and I love that I can be a part of it.
I know Billy Briscoe (Варгас’ тренер) will have some tricks. We’re very familiar with each other and I know what kind of trainer he is. He’s never prepared to face someone like me.
I’ve watched the tape on Vargas. He’s a gritty fighter. He’s definitely a tough guy who won’t give up. I have to be ready. I’m going to have to be prepared. I feel ready to go.
I had to grow into 140-pounds before I started knocking people out. This will be my third fight at welterweight and I think I’m going to feel as good as I have in my career. That’s why we’re ready to take on the best.
OMAR DOUGLAS
This is just a task. I’ve been preparing for this moment all my life. Ever since I was eight-years-old. Not to take anything away from Fortuna, but he’s a gatekeeper in the division. I have to get through him to get to what I want.
Camp has been camp. It’s rough at times but it’s part of the process. I embrace it all though. I love being in camp. I’m bored when I’m not at camp so I’m definitely happiest when I’m in the gym.
My weight is on point and on target. We’re just slowing it down and getting ready to make sure I’m peaking on fight night.
Being able to fight in Philadelphia means the world to me. This is where I started my boxing career. I’ve been coming up the highway from Delaware to fight since I was a kid. Now a win here can propel me to another level.
Fortuna is where I want to be at. I want to get through him. I can’t look past him. I’m focused on Javier Fortuna and writing another chapter in my story.
You can expect a very exciting fight on Ноември 12. Hopefully he’s everything that people claim he is. I know that I am and I’m definitely going to come out on top.
АНГЕЛ GARCIA, Таткото на Danny & Обучувач
There are people in this country who don’t have food. My parents were farmers when they came to this country. When I was a child I was hungry. I ran around with no shoes and I wore my brother’s clothes. The first thing Danny and I do when we get in the ring is say a prayer and bow our heads for the kids in the world with nothing to eat. I always told Danny and my family to appreciate whatever we have gotten. We’re using our position now to make a difference.
Danny is completely ready for this fight. He’s healthy and on track to make weight. We’ll be in the ring on Ноември 12 and I think that if Samuel Vargas comes to fight and stands toe-to-toe with Danny, we’re going to end the night early.
We’ve brought in a lot of young prospects and guys with more experience for Danny to spar. I try to mix it up on Danny and keep him 100 проценти подготвена. We can’t take anything away from Vargas though. I know Danny is a very talented fighter and he gives me what I want. He’s always learning.
We don’t watch a lot of tape. My job is not to watch the opponent, it’s to train Danny Garcia. You can’t forget about what your fighter does well.
These are big things for Danny. He’s the champion and he should be on exciting cards like this. We’re looking to keep building and building his career.
We’re keeping Danny focused. He knows that he can’t underestimate anybody. We take every opponent very seriously. На 32 people that he fought before were taken just as seriously as Vargas. We don’t change anything or take anything away. I make sure his circle is tight and that camp is focused.
I’m happy because headlining in Philadelphia is Danny’s dream. What makes Danny happy makes me happy. That’s what it’s about at the end of the day.

Џошуа vs. Molina and Whyte vs. Chisora land on huge December 10 шоу

AJ welcomes American to Manchester – Whyte and Chisora meet for Brit belt – Yafai in World title action – Quigg returns

 

Anthony Joshua MBE is set to defend his IBF World Heavyweight title against Eric Molina at the Manchester Arena on Декември 10, live on Sky Sports Box Office in the UK and on Showtime in the U.S.

 

Joshua puts his crown on the line for the second time and fights his third American in a row having destroyed Charles Martin inside two rounds to rip the title from the St. Louis man in April at The O2 in London and then stopping Dominic Breazeale in the seventh round at the same venue in June, extending his unbeaten run in the paid ranks to 17 победи, all inside the distance.

 

Molina becomes the latest man to attempt to derail the Olympic Gold medal hero, the Texan is looking to get his hands on the top prize in his second World title tilt after challenging Deontay Wilder for the WBC crown in June 2015. The 34-year-old enters the bout full of confidence after travelling to Poland and knocking out Tomasz Adamek in the tenth round of their clash for the IBF Inter-Continental strap in April.

 

“I am pleased that everything is now set for Декември 10 and I can concentrate on getting the business done in the ring,” said Joshua. “There has been plenty of talk about who I may face but all I’m doing is concentrating on finishing Molina in style and putting on a great show.

 

“Every fight is dangerous in this division and this is no exception. I saw Molina have a great fight with Wilder and he is now coming off a strong KO win against Adamek in Poland.

 

“I’m expecting this to be the toughest fight of my career so far and I will be ready for an all-out war.”

 

“There is no Heavyweight in the world that has bounced back like I have,” said Molina. “That’s the man that Joshua faces on Декември 10, and that man is a very dangerous one.

 

“He’ll fight the toughest Molina that anybody has ever seen, just like Adamek fought the toughest Molina.

 

“I’m confident. These type of fights don’t shake me up, I’m a very strong mental fighter. I know exactly what I’ve got to do to prepare myself in the amount of time. I know exactly what I’ve got to do, ментално, физички, to go there and perform.

 

“When you walk out into the atmosphere, half the battle is the mental battle, and if you can stay in the moment mentally you have a shot in any fight.”

 

There’s a huge card in support of the main event as Dillian Whyte defends his British Heavyweight title against bitter London rival Dereck Chisora in an official eliminator for the WBC title. Whyte makes the second defence of his strap after seeing off fellow Brixton man Ian Lewison in Glasgow last month, while former World title challenger Chisora can get his hands on the Lord Lonsdale belt for the second time.

 

Scott Quigg returns to action after treatment on his broken jaw following his unification blockbuster with Carl Frampton, and the Bury star moves up to Featherweight as he looks to regain his status as a World champion.

 

Kal Yafai can become Birmingham’s first World champion but the unbeaten 27 year old faces a tough task to rip the WBA Super-Flyweight title against Luis Concepcion, the two-weight World champion that will enter the ring in his 11та World title outing.

 

Irish amateur sensation Katie Taylor boxes for the second time in the paid ranks after making her pro debut at The SSE Arena, Wembley on Ноември 26, Heavyweight wrecking ball ‘King Kong’ Luis Ortiz fights in Europe for the second time after clashing with Malik Scott in Monte-Carlo on Ноември 12 and Hosea Burton will defend his British Light-Heavyweight title against Frank Buglioni.

 

“The Heavyweight division has been turned on its head in the last few months and while many are standing still waiting, I’m delighted to get this huge card up and running in Manchester,", Рече промоторот Еди Hearn.

 

“I have spoken to Eric Molina at length and I know this is going to be a big test for Anthony. We saw in the Wilder fight that he can punch and doesn’t give in and is coming off a strong knockout win against Adamek in his back yard in Poland. We have requested an exception from the IBF for this fight and although the plans are for a major unification in the spring this fight requires Anthony’s full focus.

 

“The card is one of the strongest we have produced, supported by a huge all-British Heavyweight grudge match between Dillian Whyte and Dereck Chisora which will be an official eliminator for the WBC World title.

 

“We are delighted to see the return of Scott Quigg who will now campaign at Featherweight and Birmingham’s Kal Yafai has a chance to make history in a brutal fight against World champion Luis Concepcion.

 

“One of the most exciting Heavyweights in world boxing Luis Ortiz will feature and Ireland’s Katie Taylor will continue to break the mould in front of a sold out 21,000 crowd. The re-scheduled Britsih Light-Heavyweight clash between Hosea Burton and Frank Buglioni is sure to produce fireworks and there will also be further names added in the following weeks.”

Планот за Липпе-Морисон

ЗА ОБЈАВУВАЊЕ ВЕДНАШ
Тулса, Во ред (Октомври 31, 2016) - Светот на боксот секогаш ја бара својата следна голема привлечност и ништо не е баран од тешка категорија; особено Американец со уништувачка моќ како Треј Лип-Морисон.
На Петок септември 23, непоразениот Липпе-Морисон го водеше својот прв телевизиски натпревар на шоуто против колегата без пораз Ед Латимор. Рунда, значаен чекор напред во конкуренција за Липпе-Морисон, привлече огромно внимание.
По Липпе-Морисон постигна два тешки нокаута и ја запре Латимор за помалку од 2 ½ минути, боксерската заедница зуеше со прашања. Дали тој ќе биде светски шампион како неговиот покоен татко Томи Морисон? Дали тој ќе биде на брза патека до ardвезда? Дали е следната голема надеж на Америка?
Според неговиот промотор Тони Холден, тие ќе одвојат време да дознаат.
"Треј е дефинитивно добра перспектива и неговата најнова победа го покажа тоа. Тој има уништувачка моќ и се подобрува под Фреди Роуч, кој направи фантастична работа со него. Во исто време,, важно е да се запаметиме како промотор, моја најголема обврска е да одвоиме време и да го придвижиме стратешки “.
Усна-Морисон, 12-0 (12 КО е), продолжува да продава емисии како главна привлечност и треба да се врати во декември во Казиното Буфало, каде што е член на „Четири државни франшиза“. Од неговата импресивна победа, Примиле повеќекратни понуди на Холден за Липе-Морисон да се врати на ТВ на почетокот 2017. На крајот на краиштата, планот е да се мешаат во вистинските ТВ-борби и нетелевизирани периоди на Бугарскиот бег, каде неговото влијание надминува боксот.
"Економијата тука се бори и за некои, боксот е една од ретките работи што треба да ги очекуваат,", Рече Холден, кој го промовираше Томи Морисон и го промовираше Липпе-Морисон од своето деби. „Ова е нашата професионална франшиза и заедницата се собра зад Теј. Тој се бори за нив и многу зачудувачки е да се види односот што Треј се разви со неговите фанови. Каде и да се бори, Треј ја претставува „Четири државна франшиза“ и нашата заедница. На крајот на краиштата, тимот ќе донесе интелигентни одлуки и ќе го приведе на следното ниво кога колективно се согласивме дека времето е исправно. “
Officialе бидат објавени официјалните податоци за следниот период на Липе-Морисон Четврток, Ноември 3.
