بروکلن (جولائی 31, 2016) – In a possible “Fight of the Year” showdown between two undefeated fighters, کارل Frampton کی edged لیو سانتا کروز in a firefight to capture the WBA Featherweight World Championship in the main event of SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING^® ہفتے کے روز کے سامنے 9,062 fans at the electric Barclays Center in Brooklyn.

Frampton (23-0, 14 کوس), the former unified super bantamweight champion who moved up to 126 pounds to challenge Santa Cruz (32-1-1, 18 کوس), became the first native of Northern Ireland to become a two-division world champion.

The majority decision, رنز بنائے 114-114 اپنی طرف متوجہ, 116-112 اور 117-111, was fought at a blistering pace from the outset.

Santa Cruz’s hallmark has always been his high-octane output and power punching, but the three-division world champion was unable to utilize his reach advantage, and his activity was eliminated by Frampton’s tremendous counterpunching and power shots. While both fighters are top 10 in the world in jabs, a staggering 402 of their 497 combined landed punches were power shots.

While Santa Cruz landed almost equal the amount of power shots – 206 بنام. 191 – the 46 percent that Frampton connected on appeared to land cleaner and inflict more damage. And while Santa Cruz was the taller fighter, he lunged forward and fought short on the inside, allowing Frampton to minimize the reach and contest the battle toe-to-toe, where it suited him best.

“It’s a dream come true,"Frampton کی کہا. “I had the dream of winning a world title and I won it, but I never thought I’d win in two divisions. یہ ایک مشکل جنگ تھی, I wanted it to be a tough fight because I wanted a fight the people could remember. I respect him a lot. He was a true warrior.

“I had a good game plan. Shane was an unbelievable coach. He told me every time I came back into the corner that we could win this a lot easier. But I won it with my heart, not with my head and I got my hand raised.

“Distance control and hitting hard were the keys. I won the fight because I didn’t lose control. I earned his respect early in the fight with my distance control and hard punching. I would love to take this man to Belfast for a rematch and show the people there what a great fighter he is.”

In calling out the other champions at 126 pounds – including IBF champion Lee Selby and WBC champion Gary Russell Jr, who were both in attendance – Frampton said: “I want big, memorable fights.” Click یہاں for Frampton’s full post fight interview.

سانتا کروز, who captured belts at 118, 122 اور 126 پاؤنڈ, disagreed with decision but agreed with Frampton’s wish for a rematch.

“It was a tough fight from the beginning,” Santa Cruz said. “We knew it was going to be a tough fight, but I thought it was close when I was in there throwing. Maybe the judges were hearing the crowd and thought that every little punch was scoring.

“He has a difficult style, but we know his style and will get him in the rematch. The crowd was cheering, and I think the judges saw that. Maybe, without that, we would have had a draw or maybe a decision.

“It’s hard to get your first loss, but now we’ll go back to the gym, we’ll get the rematch and we’ll win. And that loss will mean nothing. I want to have a rematch in Los Angeles, but I’ll go to Belfast too.”

Undefeated former two-division world champion مکی گارسیا returned to the ring in impressive fashion after a two-and-a-half year absence, flooring former titlist Elio Rojas four times en route to a fifth round TKO (2:02).

گارسیا (35-0, 29 کوس) showed no signs of ring rust as he stalked forward from the opening bell. The former 126 and 130-pound titlist and pound-for-pound mainstay floored Rojas (24-3, 14 کوس) midway through the third with a right-left combo, sending the Dominican to the canvas for just the second time in his career. Rojas beat the count, but a monster right sent him falling face-forward less than one minute later for the second knockdown of the round. پھر سے, the durable Rojas continued to come forward as Garcia teed-off.

Rojas was tagged again midway through the fifth with a huge right, falling to the canvas for the third time in fight. Now bleeding from his nose, Rojas was knocked down again just seconds later by a brutal right uppercut from Garcia. پھر سے, Rojas beat the count, but looked defeated and referee Eddie Claudio stopped the fight.

“The two-and-a-half-year layoff sparked a fire in me and motivated me to do the best that I could,” said Garcia, جو اترا 50 اس کی طاقت شاٹس کا فیصد. “Elio is a tough guy and a former world champion. He didn’t come for a paycheck; he came to win.

“Elio took advantage of the opportunity. But we trained for a great performance like this and I was thrilled to get the job done. It felt great to be here with a supportive crowd behind me. I’m looking forward to getting back in there and winning another world title.”

Despite the four knockdowns, Rojas disagreed with the stoppage and wanted to continue fighting.

“I was able to get off the canvas because I trained so hard,” Rojas said. “Mikey is just stronger. I’m a natural 126-pounder fighting above my weight. It was a great matchup and Mikey is a great fighter. I have no doubt that he is going to take over the division.

“I was very upset when the fight was stopped. I wanted to keep going because I have a champion’s heart and I never want to quit.”

Once-beaten 154-pound contender ٹونی ہیریسن secured the IBF’s No. 2 position with a ninth round TKO (1:18) کے سرگے Rabchenko in the opening bout of the SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast.

ہیریسن (24-1, 20 کوس) is now ranked No. 2 behind IBF Junior Middleweight World Champion Jermall Charlo and No. 1 mandatory challenger Julian Williams, who have agreed to fight later this year.

Harrison set up the distance with his jab, controlled the pace and outpunched Rabchenko (27-2, 20 کوس) by a nearly 2-1 margin. He was breaking Rabchenko down with a steady diet of power shots and well-timed jabs when he floored the Belarus native with a sharp right hand one minute into the ninth. Rabchenko got up, but looked defeated and unsteady on his feet, forcing referee Arthur Mercante to halt the contest.

Harrison landed 11 کے 40 jabs per round on top of an impressive 46 اس کی طاقت شاٹس کا فیصد.

“This is definitely my biggest win ever,” Harrison said. “I was luring him to sleep. My trainer told me that I would have the right hand behind the jab and that’s what happened. I’m a finisher. I had him hurt and I said to the ref ‘you better not let him go.’ I knew I had him beat.

“A focused Tony Harrison can beat anybody at 154-pounds. Now it’s on Jermall Charlo and Julian Williams. I’m in the catbird seat.”

Rabcheko threw an average of only 31 راؤنڈ فی punches کے, connecting just seven per round.

“I didn’t throw enough punches,” Rabchenko admitted. “I kept relying on my defense and didn’t attack enough. I was looking for one shot and it was difficult to do it against Tony Harrison with one punch. The ref did a great job with the stoppage. My health is first and foremost. The health of any fighter is the most important thing. I knew I couldn’t continue.”

Former two-division world champion and SHOWTIME analyst Paulie Malignaggi won a 10-round unanimous decision over fellow Brooklynite جبرائیل Bracero in the “Battle for Brooklyn.” The welterweight bout was scored 96-94 اور 98-92 دو بار.

“The Magic Man” stuck to his usual game plan, jabbing at range and utilizing his reach advantage against the naturally smaller Bracero, who was unable to get inside against the master technician. Malinaggi (36-7, 7 کوس) dictated the pace and was the more effective fighter, لینڈنگ 35 percent of his total punches compared to 29 for Bracero (24-3, 5 کوس). Malignaggi dominated with the jab, لینڈنگ 11 per round, which is double the welterweight average.

“I knew Bracero was a counter-puncher like myself. I was just trying to be the sharper counter-puncher. We both try to set traps and I just wanted to make him earn any points that he got. ایک ہی وقت میں, I felt like I had to earn my points. I dictated the fight with pot shots and stepping over.

“I didn’t want to get desperate. I wanted to force him to get desperate from being behind on the scorecards. I think I did a good job of that. As the fight went on, I just used my movement and feints to stay in control.

“The plan was to keep it simple – if he didn’t adjust to any traps, then I was going to keep using them. I kept it as simple as I could against a guy who if you complicate things, he will catch you. He’s a counter-puncher who can make you pay. "

Later in the evening, Malignaggi returned to his ringside position as commentator for the SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast.

“I’m excited to call the fights tonight,” Malignaggi said. “I’m a fan before I’m a fighter. I’m excited to go to work right now.”

Fighting on his 26^ویں سالگرہ کی, Farmer (22-4-1, 5 کوس) was the more effective fighter from the start.

“I’m proud of my performance tonight,” Farmer said. “I was very confident that I would be victorious as long as I executed the game plan and that’s what I did. I want a world title. I’m going to go back to 130-pounds and I feel like I’m ready for a title shot. If I have to fight an eliminator I will. I won’t back down from any challenge.

“I beat him down. I was the more experienced fighter and I came in with more rounds and with better opponents on my resume.”

Both fighters were deducted a point, Farmer in the eighth for a low blow and Redkach in the ninth for an intentional head butt.

The SHOWTIME EXTREME telecast also featured highlights of WBO Featherweight World Champion Amanda کی Serrano کی as she dropped Colombia’s Calixta Silgado twice on her way to a first round stoppage.

Serrano کی (29-1-1, 22 کوس) defended her title in the first women’s world championship bout at Barclays Center and made quick work of the challenger. Serrano swarmed Silgado (14-7-3, 9 کوس) from the start with strong combinations and powerful hooks. Silgado was able to recover from the first knockdown but was quickly smothered by Serrano, who sent her to the canvas and forced referee Benjy Esteves to halt the bout 1:41 گول ایک میں.

گیری رسل جونیئر: “I want all of the above. I want to address something that that Lee Selby said.
