The late Johnny Tapia remains strong influence for

Albuquerque amateur boxer Sharahya-Taina Moreu

2020 USA: n nyrkkeilyn kansalaiset, Joulukuu. 5-12, Shreveport, Louisiana

COLORADO SPRINGS, Kierros. (Marraskuu 23, 2020) – The late, great Hall of Fame boxer Johnny Tapia played a significant role in the development of Albuquerque welterweight Sharahya-Taina Moreu, and the 3-division world champion remains a strong influence in her life.

During the COVID-19 pandemic she has been preparing to compete in the 2020 USA Nyrkkeily SM, Joulukuu 5-12, at Shreveport Convention Center in Shreveport, Louisiana.

Tapia (shown below with his tattooed back to Moreu) helped Sharahya-Taina overcome the life-changing tragedy of her mother’s automobile accident. She was only eight at the time, laying on her mother after the accident, and the first out of the car and onto the highway asking for help.

“At first,” she spoke about her relationship with Tapia, “I was regretful and angry, getting into fights and on a bad path. I got into boxing at 12, took anger management, and became motivated.”

Tapia, who was a 2-time National Golden Gloves champion as an amateur, had a tremendous impact on Moreu’s life, something that will never leave her heart and soul.

“We became like family,” the 21-year-old explained. “At first, hän (Johnny) didn’t like girls boxing, so he worked me really hard. I was a good basketball player and he kept telling me to go play basketball. But he became a big person in my life, Mielestäni, because I had lost my mother at such a young age. He helped me in and out of the ring in so many ways. Johnny Tapia was the nicest, most humble man I’ve ever met. We became family until the gym fell apart. He only coached me for about eight months, but he taught me that boxing defines you as a person. I feel safe in the ring. I’m a better person because of Johnny and boxing.”

Training with her father/coachYoruba Moreu during the pandemic, although it was challenging to find good sparring, hasn’t been as much of a problem as for others because her gym is in the backyard. She hasn’t been in a fight since last December’s Olympic Trials.

“I’m excited to get back in the ring because I’ve gone too long without competition,” Moreu looked ahead to Shreveport. “It’s definitely going to be different, because there are a bunch of new faces coming for the number one spot, which makes it fun and worthy to fight.”

Proud to represent the United States in competition, Sharahya-Taina is proud of her Native American and Puerto Rican heritage, and she’s taken up the cause fighting for women.

“I love to embrace both sides of my culture,” she commented, “representing my Acoma side from my mother and Taino lineage from the Puerto Rican blood in me, and that’s why my name is Sharahya-Taina. Every day is a fight for women. I’m just making it known and clear that we are here to stay. I’m not just fighting for myself. I’m also fighting for my family, ancestors and the next generation of females who choose to pick up a pair of gloves. The goal is not to be just a champ in the ring, but on the outside, too.”

Moreu has been very successful in her development from youth to the elite division, voittaa 2017 Youth National Championships and Western Regional Open, sekä 2016 ja 2017 Youth Open. She’s also been runner-up at the 2018 Elite National Championships and Western Elite Qualifier, plus the 2015 National Junior Olympics.

Sharahya-Taina Moreu is a young woman on a mission. She hopes to compete in the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris, particularly with her younger brother if they both qualified to be, as she says, “an iconic brother/sister duo in Olympic boxing.”

VOITTAMATON VÄLIAIKAINEN WBA SUPER FEATHERWEIGHT CHAMPION CHRIS COLBERT -TAISTELUT KOVAT ISTUVAT JAIME ARBOLEDA LIVE SHOWTIME®-LAUANTA, Joulukuu 12 ENNEN BOXING-MESTARIEN ESITTÄMISSÄ TAPAHTUMASSA

Keskipainoiset kilpailijat Matt Korobov ja Ronald Ellis Clash

pääturnauksessa; Richardson Hitchins nousee erittäin kevyeksi tulevaisuudennäkymään entisen maailmancupin Argenis Mendezin televisio-aukkoon

NEW YORK – Marraskuu 20, 2020 - Kaksi 130-punnan divisioonan huipputaistelijoita kohtaavat, kun WBA: n superhöyhenpainon mestari on voittamaton.Chris “Primetime” Colbertkasvot kovaa lyöJaime Arboledavuonna päätapahtumaNÄYTTÖAIKA BOXING: ERIKOISPAINOS Lauantai, Joulukuu 12 at 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT livenä SHOWTIME Mohegan Sun Arenalta Uncasvillessä, Conn., Premier Boxing Championsin esittelemässä tapahtumassa.

Tripleheader, alun perin suunniteltu marraskuuhun 28, näkee keskipainoiset kilpailijatMatt KorobovjaRonald Ellistaistelu 10 kierroksen päätuotannossa ja nouseva superkevyt ilmiöRichardson Hitchinsottaa vastaan ​​nuoren uransa vaikeimman testin, kun hän kohtaa entisen maailmanmestarinArgenis Mendez10 kierroksen televisiolähetysavaajana. Tapahtumaa markkinoivat TGB Promotions ja Sampson Boxing. Hitchins vs.. Mendeziä tukee Mayweather Promotions.

Nordine Oubaali vs.. Nonito Donaire oli alun perin tarkoitus pitää joulukuussa 12 mutta lykättiin sen jälkeen, kun Oubaali testasi positiivisen COVID-19: n.

”Tämä päätapahtuma joulukuussa 12 sijoittaa kaksi 130 kilon divisioonan jännittävimmistä nousevista kyvyistä toisiaan vastaan, kun ylivertaisesti taitava Chris Colbert kohtaa voimakkaan Jaime Arboledan epäonnistumattomassa showdownissa,”Sanoi Tom Brown, Presidentti TGB Kampanjat. "Päätapahtumassa kaksi keskipainokilpailijaa Matt Korobovissa ja Ronald Ellis haluavat osoittaa olevansa divisioonan eliitin joukossa, SHOWTIME-avaaja sisältää jännittävän potentiaalin Richardson Hitchinsin aina kovaa Argenis Mendeziä vastaan ​​suuressa askeltaistelussa. Nämä ovat kolme tasaisesti ottelua, joiden pitäisi tehdä jatkuvaa draamaa taistelun iltana. "

Edustaa kotimaista Brooklynia, N.Y., Colbert (14-0, 5 KOs) on nopeasti noussut 130 kilon rankingissa, ottamalla korkean tason kilpailun ensimmäisessä 14 pro taistelee. 24-vuotias voitti tappamattomat hävittäjät Austin Dulay, Titus Williams ja Antonio Dubose, kaikki hänen kahdeksan ensimmäisen taistelunsa ammattilaisena. Sisään 2019, Colbert lisäsi vielä neljä voittoa yhteenvetoonsa, mukaan lukien veteraani Miguel Beltran Jr: n räjähtävä ensimmäisen kierroksen pudotus. Viimeksi, Colbert won his interim title by dropping former super featherweight champion Jezreel Corrales on his way to a unanimous decision in their January 2020 clash.

“I’m super excited to be making my big stage debut in the main event,” said Colbert. “It’s been a long camp, but training is going great. I’m looking to put on a dominant performance, and I’m looking for the knockout if it’s there. If I can get it, that would be splendid. I know Jaime is going to come to fight. He wants the belt as bad as I want to keep the belt. It’s all going to come down to stamina, ring IQ and who has the greater will to win. I feel like I’m the guy for the job. Helvetissä ei ole mitään tapaa, josta luovun vyöni ensimmäisen puolustukseni aikana.

26-vuotias Arboleda (16-1, 13 KOs) on kerännyt vaikuttavan kuuden taistelun voittoputken kohti ottelua Colbertia vastaan, viisi näistä voitoista tuli etäisyyden sisälle. Syntynyt Curundussa, Panama, ja nyt taistelevat Miamia vastaan, Fla. Arboleda on taistellut ammattimaisesti siitä lähtien 2014 ja teki pudotuspelejä kahdesta sitten voittamattomasta vastustajasta 2019, Victor Betancourt ja Jose Saant. Hänen viimeinen taistelu, Arboleda, joka sijoittuu WBA: n neljänneksi 130 punnan divisioonassa, parhaan entisen maailmanmestaruuskilpailijan Jayson Velezin yksimielisellä päätöksellä voittaa ensimmäinen 12 kierroksen taistelunsa helmikuussa SHOWTIME.

“Jokaisen nyrkkeilijän unelma on taistella tittelistä ja olla voitokas ilman epäilyksiä,”Sanoi Arboleda. ”Se on suunnitelmani joulukuussa 12. Minulla on koko urani paras valmistelu. Tunnen suurta, vahva ja nopea kuin koskaan ennen. Olen varma, että se on erittäin jännittävä taistelu jo ensimmäisellä kierroksella. "

Korobov (28-3-1, 14 KOs) palaa toimintaan menetettyään joulukuun 2019 ottelu vastaan ​​Chris Eubank Jr.. kun hän kärsi olkavammasta, joka pakotti taistelun päättymään toisella kierroksella. Korobov, kuka lovi 300 voittaa koristeltu amatööri, tuli kyseiseen taisteluun, kun Immanuwel Aleemia vastaan ​​käytettiin enemmistön arvonta, ilmoitettuaan keskipainoluokalle, että hän olisi uhka, kun hän menettäisi kovan taistelun päätöksen voittamattomalle keskipainon mestarille Jermall Charlolle joulukuussa. Syntynyt Orotukanissa, Venäjä, ja asuu nyt St.. Petersburg, Fla, Korobov oli myöhässä korvaava ja antoi Charlolle kovempaa taistelua kuin monet asiantuntijat odottivat. Korobov had been riding a four-fight win streak before the Charlo fight, following his first professional defeat against Andy Lee in a 2014 middleweight title fight.

“I am excited to be back in a PBC event on SHOWTIME December 12,” said Korobov. “I have a difficult opponent, but I expect to win and prove that I am back and even better prepared. I must win against Ellis in order to get Jermall Charlo back in the ring. Tietenkin, I believe I beat Charlo, but that is the past. Ellis is in my future, and I am coming to show I am still one of the best middleweights in the world.”

The 31-year-old Ellis (17-1-2, 11 KOs) will look to build off of his last outing, which saw him edge fellow contender Immanuwel Aleem by majority decision in December 2019. For Ellis, tämä taistelu sai hänet takaisin voittosarakkeeseen ensimmäisen uransa tappion jälkeen, enemmistöpäätös DeAndre Ware -yrityksestä maaliskuussa 2019. Lynn, Massan syntyperäinen on keskipainoisen Rashidi Ellisin vanhempi veli, ja hänellä oli vaikuttava amatööriura mukaan lukien a 2010 Kansallinen kultahansikkaiden mestaruuskilpailu päättyi voittoon Terrell Gaushasta.

“Minun on aika ilmestyä 12. joulukuuta,” sanoi Ellis. “Korobovilla oli mahdollisuus keskikeskiöitä vastaan, ja nyt on minun aika käyttää tätä tilaisuutta hyväkseen ja käyttää voittoa hänestä saavuttaaksesi kyseisen tason. Teemme kovaa työtä San Diegossa sparraamassa Canelo Alvarezin kanssa, jotta kaikki olisi täydellistä ja olen parhaimmani taisteluiltana.”

Kotoisin Brooklynista, Hitchins (11-0, 5 KOs) kääntyi ammattilainen 2017 edustettuaan Haitia 2016 Olympialaiset. 23-vuotias on vilkaissut vaikuttavia taitoja, kun hän on kerännyt lyömättömän ennätyksen ammattiryhmissä, joka on laajan amatööriuran tulos. Hitchins teki neljä voittoa vuonna 2019, ennen debytointia 2020 päätöksellä voitolla Nicholas DeLomba. Kahdessa ensimmäisessä 10 kierroksen ottelussa ammattilaisena, southpaw on tehnyt ratkaisevat yksimieliset päätökset.

"En unohda yhtään vastustajaa, mutta uskon, että minulla on parempi ja terävämpi taito kuin Mendez,”Sanoi Hitchins. ”Minulla on kaikki aineettomat aineet tulla maailmanmestariksi. Se pidetään usein vääränä, mutta oikeastaan ​​vain minä uskon itseeni enemmän kuin kukaan muu. Otan tämän taistelun vakavasti kuten minkä tahansa muun taistelun ja jatkan sen tekemistä saadakseni yhden askeleen lähemmäksi tuota nimikettä. Leirissä Floyd Mayweatherin ja Gervonta Davisin kanssa, Olen oppinut paljon. Minusta tuntuu, että minun on kerrottava kilpailu. He todella pakottivat minut olemaan parempi taistelija. "

Entinen superhöyhenpainon mestari, Mendez (25-5-3, 12 KOs) on tunnettu siitä, että se tarjoaa kovia haasteita urheilun parhaimmille ja on osoittautunut kestäväksi haastajaksi 140 kilolla. Sisään 2019, Mendez taisteli taaksepäin tasapeleihin erittäin kevyitä kilpailijoita vastaan, Ensin Anthony Petersonia vastaan ​​maaliskuussa ja sitten lyömätöntä Juan Heraldezia vastaan ​​toukokuussa. Syntynyt San Juan de La Maguanassa, Dominikaaninen tasavalta, Mendez taistelee nyt Yonkersista, N.Y.. ja omistaa voittoja Eddie Ramirezistä, Ivan Redkach ja entinen tittelilista Miguel Vazquez. Hän on myös käynyt varpaiden varassa entisten mestareiden Rances Barthelemyn ja Robert Easter Jr: n kanssa.

"Minulla on edessään nuori potentiaali, joka on nälkäinen menestykseen, mutta olen tänään nälkäisempi kuin koskaan olen ollut urallani, ja minulla on kokemusta siitä,”Sanoi Mendez. "Olen myös erittäin motivoitunut tähän taisteluun, mikä ei ole hyvä uutinen Hitchinsille. Kun taisteluaika tulee joulukuussa 12, näet älykkään, mutta aggressiivisemman Argenis Mendezin. "

Undefeated lightweight prospect JAMAINE “THE TECHNICIAN” ORTIZ Hopes to Steal Tyson-Jones Junior Show

WORCESTER, Massa. (Marraskuu 17, 2020) – Undefeated lightweight prospectJamainen "teknikko" Ortiz (13-0, 7 KOs), hallitseva maailman nyrkkeilyn maailmanmestari, hopes to steal the show on the November 28th Mike Tyson-Roy Jones, Jr. pay-per-view card, presented by Tyson’s Legends Only League, at Staples Center in Los Angeles.

24-vuotias Ortiz, fighting out of Worcester, Massachusetts, will fight on the undercard against Maryland southpawSulaiman Segawa (13-2-1, 4 KOs) in an 8-round bout for the vacant World Boxing Council (WBC) USNBC (US-) lightweight title.

Like all fighters, the COVID-19 pandemic has dramatically affected his career, although he has managed to train, albeit in various gyms and mostly by himself.

“It wasn’t too bad,” added Ortiz, who is an apprentice carpenter. “Not all of the facilities I use to train were open. Early on, I trained by myself, and did a lot of running. We were quarantined until late June, early July, but then I was able to get good sparring. So, yleinen, it wasn’t too much of a change.”

Ortizia markkinoiJimmy Burchfield (Klassinen viihde ja urheilu) ja neuvooRichard Shappy jaEddie Imondi. 

“We’re happy our fighter, Jamainen Ortiz, will be getting such great exposure and he will show the world what we already know here in New England,” Shappy commented. “Jamaine ‘The Technician’ Ortiz is a force that will have to be reckoned with.”

Omar Juarez’ Touching Story with Special Needs Child

Jätä kommentti
BROWNSVILLE, TX (Marraskuu 10, 2020) – The rapidly expanding emergence of an inspirational leader continues unabated in the personage of undefeated super lightweight prospect, Omar Juarez (9-0, 4 KOs). An outstanding professional boxer by trade, Juarez is rising on the national stage with his recent designation as brand ambassador for the newly formed partnership between the California based Feet First Foundation and the globally recognized World Boxing Council’s humanitarian branch “World Boxing Cares”.


Omar Juarez’ carefully crafted message about the principles needed to achieve goals has positively affected young people’s lives in his hometown, Brownsville, Texas since he was 15-years old. The overwhelmingly positive feedback he has received from young people about his message has inspired him to even greater heights in this endeavor.


None more than a touching tribute he just received from a special needs child named Isaias, who deals with acute challenges that include communication. Isaias is limited to communicating through a laptop and was a frequent visitor to Omar’s gym on Fridays when it was opened to special needs kids.


As the pandemic took hold, Isaias found himself isolated at home and began to feel the effects of this isolation, he typed out a message of gratitude to Omar for being a source of inspiration and hope. His family acknowledged to Omar the much needed solace this represented to their son.


“To hear a message like the one I received from Isaias and his family made my day,” said Omar Juarez, who fights under the Premier Boxing Champions lippu. “Its moments like these that keep me motivated as I continue to be a positive role model in my community. As a Chinese proverb states…I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across the water to create many ripples.”


These are the touching moments that energize Omar as he continues his quest to become an inspirational leader on a worldwide scale.

Sa’Rai Brown-El : The future of women’s boxing – 2020 USA: n nyrkkeilyn kansalaiset, Joulukuu. 5-12, Shreveport, Louisiana

Jätä kommentti

COLORADO SPRINGS, Kierros. (Marraskuu 9, 2020) – The future of women’s boxing, ehkä, is 15-year-oldSa’Rai Brown-El, who has already captured top honors in 11 national and regional tournaments.

Since she started boxing in 2015, Sa’Rai has collected gold medals at the 2019 Junior Open, 2019 Kansallinen PAL, 2019 & 2017 Kansalliset nuorten olympialaiset, 2017 Western Regional Open, and Eastern Regional Open in 2017, 2018 and 2019.

“I stayed focused and hungry and, tärkeintä, humble,” she spoke about her success in the junior division. “No matter how much you’ve accomplished or the number of accolades you’ve gotten, always stay hungry and always strive for more.”

Boxing started for her when she was 10, training at Lugo Boxing and Fitness in Marietta, Georgia. Prior to that in her native Albany (New York), she went to her uncle’s gym and found a pair of boxing gloves.

“I fell in love with boxing when I found that first pair of gloves,” Brown-El explained. “I first started boxing because, tuolloin, my dad didn’t agree with me. I saw a lot of people who didn’t agree with females competing in a male dominated sport, so I wanted to prove those people wrong. I just love boxing because my whole family boxes.”

The COVID-19 pandemic adversely effected most boxers, who were limited in terms of training and sparring, in addition to being shutout of tournaments. Brown-El, kuitenkin, made the best of a bad situation, running miles with her siblings, cardio mitt work with her father, and much more.

Brown-El has her sights firmly set on the 2020 USA Nyrkkeily SM, Joulukuu 5-12, at the Shreveport Convention Center in Shreveport, Louisiana.

“I am super excited and super focused on the National Championships,” she added. “I am fighting to get on the USA High Performance Team for my second year. I really want this and I will be working hard every day. My goal for now is to be on Team USA for the second time. I want to fight internationally and be Number 1 in the world.”

Brown-El has definitive long-range goals in boxing, starting with the Olympics and finishing as the face of women’s boxing.

“If I win a gold medal at the 2024 Olympialaiset, maybe a second time in 2028, after that I think that will open up great opportunities for me,” the prodigy commented. “I think it’ll especially help me in the pro ranks. Winning a gold medal is my biggest goal right now.

“I want to be the greatest female boxer in the world. I want to be known and I want to make a statement for all females. I really want to shock the world. I eat, sleep, and breath boxing. This is not just a sport for me, this is a lifestyle.”

Sa’Rai Brown-El is on a golden path to stardom. She represents the future!

Giovanni Marquez following in Olympian and world champion father’s footsteps

Jätä kommentti

2020 USA: n nyrkkeilyn kansalaiset, Joulukuu. 5-12, Shreveport, Louisiana

COLORADO SPRINGS, Kierros. (Marraskuu 2, 2020) – Houston welterweight amateur boxerGiovanni Marquezis hoping for a little Deja-vu from his chief coach and grandfather, Arturo Marquez, who guided his son and Giovanni’s father, Raul “El Diamante” Marquez, to a roster spot on the 1992 USA Boxing Olympic Boxing Team.

Raul, who was a 2-time US amateur champion in two different weight classes, välisarjan nyrkkeilijä, and junior middleweight, went on to become the International Boxing Federation (IBF) light middleweight World champion, retiring with a 41-4 (12 KOs) pro record.

Rather than turn pro this year, 19-year-old Giovanni remained in the amateur ranks, albeit with a series of goals, first and foremost, to capture a gold medal at the 2020 USA Nyrkkeily SM, Joulukuu 5-12, at the Shreveport Convention Center in Shreveport, Louisiana.

“My goal this year is to win the U.S. Nationals and have outstanding performances throughout the tournament,” Giovanni reported. “My long-term goal is to compete internationally and represent the United States at the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris.

“The reason I returned for another year after missing in the Olympic Trials is because I still have a lot to prove on the amateur boxing scene. My team and I decided this was the best decision and I am still very young. My performances in every national tournament I’ve competed in have consistently improved every time. In my last national tournament – Last Chance Qualifier – I faced off withdelante Johnson, the 2020 US Olympic Qualification Team member, and I lost a split decision. Although I lost the fight, I proved that I could compete at the highest level with the top dogs. Now that I’m a little bit older, vahvempi, and physically and mentally more mature, I’m confident I have what it takes to become No. 1 in the division. This is why my team and I decided to stay an amateur instead of turning pro.

“I’m very excited about these Nationals, excited to show what I’ve been working on and critiquing everyday inside the gym. Winning the Nationals will mean the world to me, as I have put in so much time and effort into this sport. With my experience gained the past few years, hard work and maturity, I am confident a gold medal awaits me in Shreveport.”

A boxer-puncher who makes the necessary adjustments needed to win, Giovanni has the ability to switch from his orthodox stance to southpaw, comfortably and effectively.

Being the son of a famous boxer, luonnollisesti, has its advantages and disadvantages. Giovanni is ready to break out on his own, at least to some extent, with his grandfather and grandmother (Yolanda Marquez) working his corner, while his dad sits in the stands watching the action.

“Coming from a boxing family,” Giovanni remarked, “I was always in the gym messing around on the heavy bag while my father was training. The reason I started boxing was because it’s something that was just part of my family’s life. I had an interest to try it out myself and realized I was talented. I fell in love with the sport and haven’t looked back since. My first official fight was when I was 12.

“There definitely are more eyes on the son of a famous boxer. This doesn’t add pressure on me, it motivates me to prove that I am capable of accomplishing the same things my father did like winning national titles. To have a father with his experience and knowledge in boxing is truly a blessing.”

Training during the COVID-19 pandemic hasn’t really been a problem, largely because his grandfather and father are boxing gym owners. Giovanni did struggle, vaikka, because he worried about his grandfather’s health due to his advanced age and susceptibility to dangerous complications if infected. They’ve stayed healthy by practicing social distancing and properly sanitizing each and every day in the gym.

“Being cornered by my grandfather is a good feeling,” Giovanni explained, “because I know everything he tells me is for my own good. I feel like my grandfather already created one Olympian in my dad, so he has all the right tools and knowledge to do the same with me.

“Not only is he my boxing coach, he’s also a mentor who has groomed me into the young man I am today. My father and uncle also help to train me by working the mitts and helping out with strength and conditioning workouts. Ultimately, it is a good feeling to have my family in my corner, pushing me beyond my limits in order for me to be successful.”

Giovanni Marquez is preparing to establish his own identity.

WBC Lightweight Champion Haney Battles Former Two-Time World Champion Yuriorkis Gamboa on Saturday, Marraskuu 7 Live on DAZN from Hard Rock Live at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in an Event Presented by Matchroom USA and Devin Haney Promotions

LAS VEGAS, NV (Lokakuu 30, 2020) – Undefeated WBC lightweight world champion Devin “Unelma” Haney (24-0, 15 KOs), will return to the ring on November 7, 2020, against former 2004 Olympic Gold Medalist and two-time world champion Yuriorkis Gamboa (30-3, 18 KOs).


Haney vs. Gamboa is a 12-round world title fight taking place at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada, and will be the main event on a highly anticipated Matchroom USA card in association with Devin Haneyn promootiot, broadcast on DAZN.


Here is what Devin Haney, the WBC Lightweight Champion, had to say ahead of his fight with Gamboa as he wraps up his final day of training camp in Las Vegas.


On his recent training camp in Las Vegas.


“I stay in the gym, I basically live in the gym, so once camp begins, I put my all into training. I do not want to be outworked, and I am driven by those around me. I am extremely focused right now. I’m going to be the face of boxing.”


On returning after his shoulder injury.


“No athlete wants to ever be injured. I took the time I needed to, listened to the doctors, and let my body rest. One good thing from the social distancing and stay-at-home orders was it occurred during the time I was recovering so I was able to be fully rested once the gyms reopened. I am now 100% and better than ever, you will see on fight night.”


On his matchup with Yuriorkis Gamboa.


“Gamboa has done a lot in the sport, and the fact that he gave a lot of fighters tough fights, says a lot about him. I want to prove a point in this bout that a lot of people are not mentioning my name amongst the best in the world, and I am looking to change that by putting forth a performance against Gamboa that no one has ever seen before. I respect Gamboa as a fighter, but in the ring, I will have no respect for him at all. In the ring he is my enemy.


On what a spectacular win means for your career.


“Obviously, a win gives me my 2nd world title defense which is very important to me. Title defenses shows a lot about what kind of fighter you really are. I don’t care how you won it or who you won it from…can you defend the world title against all challengers? That’s what I represent as a throwback champion. You can have a strategy to get there but when you become a champion you become a target. Tank Davis, Teofimo Lopez and Ryan Garcia are all great potential opponents for me. I’d rather fight sooner than later but they have to feel the same way about me. I have a goal to be the first billionaire boxer, and to do that I have to put forth billion-dollar performances. That’s exactly what I’m going to do on November 7th in Miami.”

Here is what the press conference participants had to say Thursday:

GERVONTA DAVIS

“My team and I decided to move our camp to Las Vegas so we could have a perfect camp. We spent 15 weeks in training, so I’m well prepared. Hopefully Leo is well prepared and we give the fans what they want to see.

“We know Leo is going to come with a lot of punches and I’m going to be explosive. It’s all about giving fans a treat. I’m grateful to be in this position and I’m ready. Saturday night is going to be a memorable night.

“Not to take anything from him, Yuriorkis Gamboa was just trying to survive against me. It’s harder to get punches off when someone isn’t trying to bring the fight. I know Leo is going to come to fight. I think this performance is going to put me up to the next level.

“I don’t think I have to knock him out, I just have to go out there and be great. Forget everything else, I just have to go out there and show everyone that I’m the top guy in the boxing world. That’s my main goal.

“Michael Jordan used to read the paper and do what they said he couldn’t do. That’s what I’m doing. I have to prove that I’m the baddest man in the sport on Saturday night.

“Leo is going to come to fight and it’s just about me stepping up and doing what I do best. You can see the potential in a fighter from the outside, but you have to see it actually come out in a fight to believe it. That’s the position I’m in. Everyone knows I’m great, I just have to show it.

“Leo has shown that he’s a top tier fighter, and he’s going up against an explosive, powerful fighter like myself. I think the winner should be in the top 10 of the pound-for-pound list.

“Floyd Mayweather has just told me to stay focused despite everything that comes with pay-per-view week. I have to get the job done first, but also do everything that comes with being the next pay-per-view star.

“I’m one of those fighters that knows how to focus when I have something big in front of me. None of the great fighters before me have frozen up when it’s crunch time. I’ve always been able to focus when big things are on the line. That’s what I did for this training camp.

“I’m not really focused on anyone who isn’t Leo Santa Cruz. I can’t overlook Leo. As far as any other fighter out there, they just don’t matter to me right now. I’ll prove it along the way. This is one step closer to proving the point I want to prove.”

LEO SANTA CRUZ

“This is what I’ve always dreamed of. When I was a little boy, I wanted to be on this stage. I’m living that dream and I’m very happy and excited. I never thought I’d accomplish it. I thought it was like winning the lottery. But thanks to the fans, I’m here where I’m at.

“I’m facing the best fighter in the division. If you want to be the best, you have to beat the best. I have to go against the best fighter. I wanted to challenge myself. I know this is a dangerous fight for me, but I want to test myself.

“We’ve both suffered and been through a lot to get here. Neither of us wants to go back to where we started. So I know we’re both going to give a great fight to the fans.

“I have the heart of a Mexican warrior. My dad has told me to fight a smart fight, but even though he’s going to say that, there’s a good chance I end up brawling with him at times. Ei ole väliä mitä, we’re going to find a way to beat him.

“I don’t really worry about being the underdog. Everyone has their opinion. It’s my job to go out there and prove the doubters wrong. I trained hard to go out there and do that Saturday.

“Gervonta is the best opponent I’ve faced. He’s the strongest fighter I’ll have faced. The Abner Mares and Carl Frampton fights were great experience for this kind of fight. I learned a lot from those four fights and since then I’ve learned a lot more.

“It would mean the world to me to become a five-division champion. It would be another dream come true. I would put the Santa Cruz last name right up there with the best.

“Gervonta is a big guy and I know he’s going to come hit hard. But I’ve trained with bigger guys all camp and I’ve been able to take everything thrown at me.

“The fans want you to go and make it a back and forth war. I know against Gervonta I have to fight smart. I’m going to just try as hard as I can to listen to my father’s advice.

“I definitely took this fight to quiet the critics. People said I didn’t want to fight the big names. So I went after the biggest challenge in the division and that’s Gervonta Davis.

“I leave the opinions to the fans and media. My job is to get the win and give the fans a great fight. I’m going to give it my best and leave it all in the ring.”

CALVIN FORD, Davis’ Trainer

“Camp has been great. It was unbelievable. I really appreciate the work that he put in. I can’t wait to see Tank in the ring. I’m looking forward to great performances from both fighters.

“’Tank’ accomplished a lot of things that I’ve asked him to do, but this is the pinnacle of them all right here. Both of these families have walked the same line with different trails. They both have a chance to become greats with this win.

“Every time I look at ‘Tank’ now, I flash back to those younger years in the gym with him as a child. Now he’s the man I’ve always looked at him to be. He’s a family man, business man and a wonderful fighter. It’s amazing to see one of my boys all grown up.”

JOSÉ SANTA CRUZ, Santa Cruz’s Father and Trainer

“We had a really good training camp and understand the importance of this fight. Leo is fully prepared for this fight on Saturday and I expect him to have a great performance.

“I’m very thankful to be here. I’m so happy to be here with my son for such a big fight and be able to guide him and help him accomplish his dream.

“We know that Davis is a very strong and accomplished fighter. But Leo has just used it to motivate him in the gym every day and you’ll be able to see that on Saturday.”

STEPHEN ESPINOZA, Presidentti, Urheilu- ja tapahtumaohjelmointi, Showtime Networks Inc.

“One of the biggest reasons I love boxing is because we get to witness young men, like ‘Tank’ Davis and Leo Santa Cruz, develop and mature right in front of our eyes. This is our ninth fight with ‘Tank’ and 13th with Leo. We have seen them mature as fighters and we have seen them mature as young men. We’ve seen them struggle, hiki, and triumph. We’ve seen them become fathers.”

“I remember the first time I met ‘Tank’, it was April 2016 kohteessa Washington, D.C. He was on the non-televised undercard of an Adrien Broner fight. He had already fought, he came over during the telecast and Floyd introduced him. I remember his very words, ‘This is my young fighter. Watch out for this kid.’ And we’ve been watching ever since.

“I remember the first time I met Leo was in June 2012. Shortly before his first world title fight. He was a very humble, quiet, soft spoken, almost shy young men. Very different from the guy that I saw in the ring about 48 hours after that. The point is, we’ve been along for the journey of these young men.

“They have been battling the odds, literally since birth. We were lucky enough to spend time with them during All Access. They opened their hearts, their minds, and themselves to share their stories. The thing I’ve heard most is that the difficulty about this fight is not whether people want to watch it or whether they’re going to buy it, it’s who they’re going to root for. Because if you know these young men’s stories, what they’ve gone through, and what they’ve experienced, it is incredible.

“The bottom line is in these two young men we have two of the most accomplished and popular young fighters in the sport today. Leo has been a champion almost consistently since 2012. ‘Tank’ had sellouts or near sellouts in Los Angeles, Baltimore and Atlanta, just last year. We have got these two accomplished young men fighting on Saturday night. You have to respect their journey, mistä he tulevat, and respect the teams that come around him.

“We do know what’s going to happen on Saturday night. Leo is going to come into the ring, throw a lot of punches and show an activity rate that’s unlike just about anybody else in the sport. ‘Tank’ is going to show the power, nopeus, and the athleticism that has made him one of the fastest rising young stars that we’ve seen in sport in some time. Beyond että, it will be up to them, just like it’s been up to them for their entire lives.”
