Tässä on mitä lehdistötilaisuudessa osallistujia oli sanottavaa Keskiviikko:
ERROL SPENCE JR.
“Tämä on loistava kortti mahtavilla taistelijoilla ja sen loistava tilaisuus. Monet ihmiset ajattelevat, että olen mahdollisuus olla kilpailija. Lauantai yö tulee olemaan hieno esitys.
“En koskaan ajatellut taisteluviikkoa tulevan. Olen vain niin innoissani esitellessäni esitystä. Se tulee olemaan paras Errol Spence, jonka olet koskaan nähnyt.
“Minun on vain pidettävä kiinni pelisuunnitelmastani. Pelisuunnitelma, jonka valmentajani laati minulle ja teen mitä teen ja saan voiton.
“Mitä ikinä tapahtuu, tapahtuu. Minun täytyy tuntea se ensimmäisellä kierroksella. Minun täytyy vain taistella fiksusti.
“Olen aina tuntenut olevani valmis tälle tasolle. Lauantai yö, Etsin tulevaa juhlia. Keskityn 100 prosenttia tästä taistelusta.
“Olin valmis kaksi taistelua sitten taistelemaan tittelistä. Tämän taistelun jälkeen voimme puhua seuraavasta, mutta juuri nyt, Chris Algieri on edessäni.
“Chris on ollut kovassa taistelussa. Päivän lopussa hän on nyrkkeilijä ja minäkin. Se tulee olemaan sota.”
CHRIS ALGIERI
“Brooklyn on kohdellut minua erittäin hyvin. Minulla on ollut joitain parhaita esityksiäni täällä Barclays Centerissä ja odotan innolla toista.
“On aina kunnia jakaa näyttämö tällaisten maineikkaiden kavereiden kanssa. Monet näistä kavereista todella tuovat kunniaa ja kunnioitusta liiketoiminnalle, jota teemme.
“En usko, että olen saanut niin paljon kunnioitusta kuin ansaitsen koko urani ajan. En tiedä miksi, mutta sillä ei ole väliä. Päivän päätteeksi menen sinne ja esiintyn. Useammin silloin en ole voittaja.
“Luulen, että kaikki tietävät, että taistelen ketään vastaan. Spence on kaveri, jota ihmiset eivät halua taistella, joten he toivat hänet luokseni.
“Parasta työskennellessäni John David Jacksonin kanssa on luottamus, jonka hän antaa minulle. Hän antaa minun olla kuka olen. Hän antaa minulle uskon luottaa kykyihini. Odotan innolla uuden upean esityksen hänen kanssaan nurkassani.
“Kova työ on tehty. Harjoitusleiri oli pitkä, kova ja uuvuttava. Ei paljon muuta sanottavaa. On aika taistella. Se tulee olemaan hieno taisteluyö. “
Glowacki Krzysztof
“Olen niin onnellinen palatessani Yhdysvaltoihin ja haluaisin kiittää tiimiäni siitä, että hän on valmistellut minut niin hyvin.

“Olen hyvin onnellinen siitä, että olen terve. Harjoitusleiri meni haluamallani tavalla ja tunnen 100 prosenttia valmiina nousemaan kehään
“Minun täytyy voittaa. Se on tärkeintä. On hienoa taistella niin mahtavalla kortilla, mutta tärkeätä on vain pitää vyöni.
“Fanit voivat odottaa näkevänsä kauniin nyrkkeilyn. Se on sota kehän sisällä. Ennenkaikkea, Aion voittaa.
“Monet asiat ovat muuttuneet sen jälkeen kun olen voittanut maailmancupini. Kukaan ei tiennyt minua, ja nyt kaikki tuntevat minut. Olen tyytyväinen tähänastiseen uraani. En halua puhua urani tulevaisuudesta vasta taistelun jälkeen.
“Steve Cunningham ei ole vain suuri taistelija vaan myös suuri ihminen, joten odotan kovaa taistelua. Hän haluaa ottaa vyön minulta, mutta se ei tule olemaan helppoa. Haluan, että kaikki tulevat ulos näyttelyyn lauantaina.”
Steve Cunningham
“Taistelen ensimmäistä kertaa Barclays Centerissä ja olen siitä erittäin innoissani. Olen valmis taistelemaan. Leiri on ohi. Tiedät, että se on uuvuttavaa ja kovaa työtä.
“Tiedän, että minulla on loistava vastustaja. Hän otti vyön mestarilta. Hän nousi kankaalta, joten en voi ollenkaan katsoa häntä kevyesti. Mutta olen täällä tekemässä työtä.
“Olen kyllästynyt huijaamiseen ja ryöstettyjä mahdollisuuksia raskaansarjan divisioonassa. Päätin palata takaisin. Se ei ole ongelma. Kolme kiloa tai neljä kiloa, ei iso juttu. Täällä me olemme.
“Tulemme varastamaan esityksen. Haluaisin varastaa esityksen ilman, että osuisin liikaa. Taistelu on taistelu. Tiedät, että tulen voittamaan, joten meillä on hauskaa.
“On joitain säätöjä, jotka sinun on tehtävä, kun taistelet eteläkäppää vastaan. Mies heittää kaksi käsinettä sinulle ja sinun on heitettävä käsineet takaisin hänelle. Ei ole väliä, taisteleeko hän minua ylösalaisin, Minun täytyy taistella fiksusti ja lyödä häntä riippumatta.
“Naazim Richardsonin kanssa on aina jotain erityistä. Hän on hieno mieli. Yksi upeista kouluttajista siellä. Meillä on aina valmistettu jotain erityistä. Meidän on tehtävä mitä meidän on tehtävä, ja se on voitto.
“Kun voitit kaverin, kuten Marco Huck, joka oli tekemässä historiaa, ja sinä voitit hänet kuten Glowacki, sinun täytyy ajatella, että hän on hyvä, ja ymmärtää, ettet voi ottaa Glowackia kevyesti. Hän on soturi. Hän on ongelma, jotain mitä minun on käsiteltävä.
“En ole vielä 40-vuotias. Anna minulle vielä muutama kuukausi! En tunne 39 tai 40. Tunnen suurta. I just want to go in there and perform and do what I do.
I’m not one of those predicting guys. I know things happen in the ring. But come Lauantai yö, I want things to go my way. Jos ei, we’re able to evolve. Let’s go, it’s work time.
MARCUS BROWNE
We’ve done a lot of talking leading up into this fight. I want to talk with my hands. He said he’s ready to fight. We’ll see lauantaina yö.
“Tunnen suurta. Training camp has gone great. Right now the focus is to win and look good. Whatever happens after that is going to happen.
I’m going to do what I do best and that’s take care of business no matter what.
I’m ready for whatever he brings to the table. We will know that after the first minute of the first round.
It’s an incredible honor to be representing my hometown. Fighting in front my home fans is always very motivating and I can’t wait to put on another show for them.
People have said a lot about how this will be my toughest fight. I can’t listen to anything on the outside. I’m prepared to my fullest and we’ll see what he has lauantaina night.”
Radivoje KALAJDZIC
“Olen valmis. I don’t have too much to say. Olen vain valmis taistelemaan.
“Leiri meni hienosti. We got a full eight weeks in. Roadwork, ilmastointi, kaikki. Olen vain valmis taistelemaan.
I want to introduce myself to the fans by knocking out Marcus Browne. If that doesn’t come, Haluan laittaa suurta suorituskykyä. Being on the big stage doesn’t bother me, once the bell rings its just another day.
I know Marcus is fast and has pop to him. I don’t want to give too much away.
I’m a boxer puncher. I’ve got the power to knock a fighter out. Most of my knockouts have come in the first round.
“Minusta tuntui kuin tulin oikealle tielle. Minulla ei ollut niin paljon amatöörikokemusta, mutta käytin tätä isoa mahdollisuutta oikeaan aikaan.”
HEATHER HARDY
“Odotan kohtaavani hyvän vahvan nyrkkeilijän lauantaina yö. Hän laskee painossa taistellakseen minua vastaan, joten älä missaa sitä.
“Muutimme hieman tämän harjoitusleirin aikana. Lisäsin toisen ilmastointivalmentajan. Mies, joka on kiduttanut minua kolme kertaa viikossa.
“Vastustajani on vahva, hänellä on hyvät ennätykset, hän on ulkomailta. Tiedän, että minulla on kädet täynnä.
“On todellinen kunnia taistella Barclays Centerissä. En voinut kysyä parempaa paikkaa. Maailmassa ei ole missään päin taistelua kuin täällä kotona. Sikäli kuin urani etenee, Haluaisin olla siellä lavalla ja olla televisiossa.
“En voi odottaa taistella (unbeaten contender) Shelly Vincent. I think that will be the big breakthrough fight that let’s me establish who I am in this game and who I am for the bigger competition. That’s a perfect fight for TV. Fingers crossed.
LOU Dibella, Presidentti Dibella Viihde
This great card features a fighter who is believed to be the top prospect in boxing, in Errol Spence Jr. versus New York’s own, a former world champion in Chris Algieri in what promises to be an exciting primetime main event.
Marcus Browne has fought more times at Barclays Center than any other professional fighter. He has the chance to make the jump towards a world title by taking out another young undefeated fighter. ‘Hot Rodis not planning on letting that happen without serious resistance.
“Glowackin taistelu Huckin kanssa oli yksi viime vuoden parhaista, ja hän voi odottaa Brooklynissa olevien puolalaisten fanien olevan takanaan lauantaina yö.
“Steve Cunningham on ikäisensä arvostetuimpia taistelijoita. Ei vain hänen laadunsa puolesta kehässä, mutta hänen ominaisuutensa perheenjäsenenä ja ihmisenä. Hän tietää taistelevansa loistavaa mestaria vastaan ​​ja tiedän, että hänellä on loistava pelisuunnitelma.”
JOE DEGUARDIA, Presidentti Star Boxing
“On ilo palata takaisin Brooklyniin ja saada Chris Algieri taistelemaan jälleen Barclays Centerissä. On erittäin palkitsevaa, että hän on NBC: n kansallisen television päätapahtumassa. Se on todellinen osoitus tästä taistelusta.

“Barclays Center on innoissaan saadessaan Chris Algierin takaisin neljänteen taisteluunsa ja odotamme suurta äänestysaktiivisuutta Long Islandin faneilta, jotka odottavat Lauantai myös. Odotamme myös uutta nimeä Brooklynin otsikkoon ja toivotamme tervetulleeksi Errol Spence Jr.

NEW YORK (Huhtikuu 13, 2016) – WBC Featherweight Champion Gary Russell Jr. (26-1, 15 KOs), Capitol Heights, Md., and Irish contender Patrick Hyland (31-1, 15 KOs), of Dublin, faced off at the final press conference Keskiviikko at Highline Ballroom in New York, as they approach tämä Lauantain Featherweight World Title fight live on SHOWTIME® from the Fox Theater in Foxwoods Resort Casino in Mashantucket, CT.
The SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP NYRKKEILY® telecast begins live at 11 p.m. JA/8 p.m. PT on SHOWTIME with IBF Junior Lightweight World Championship clash between unbeaten Puerto Rican Jose Pedraza (21-0, 12 KOs) and mandatory challenger Stephen Smith (23-1, 13 KOs), of Liverpool, Englanti.
Here’s what the fighters had to say at Keskiviikon final press conference.
GARY RUSSELL JR.
(On Patrick Hyland…)
“Ennen kaikkea, I gotta tip my hat off to him. I heard him say he was being trained by his father. Me and my younger brothers are also trained by my dad. My father is my favorite superhero, so it is very hard to deal with a situation like this and to bounce back and to grind and put all the hard work and effort into it after all the heartache and loss, I gotta tip my hat off to him for that.
I know that anytime you have a fighter that trains for six to eight weeks and prepares for no one else but you, is a dangerous fight. Hän on pitkä, he’s long, but we can take him. We’re going to handle it.
(On returning from injury…)
“Minusta tuntuu hyvältä. Olen valmis; I put the work in at the gym. Kuten sanoin aiemmin, I got cussed out several times and sometimes I left the gym feeling like the worst fighter ever. Mutta, juuri tällä hetkellä, we’re ready and we’re prepared to invest in my ability.
(On what it means to have his brother Antonio on the card he’s headlining…)
It means a lot. I’m looking forward to it. I’m actually more looking forward to watching my brother compete than my own fight. I will definitely be working his corner in that fight. It means a lot for us to be able to pass this information down from generation to generation and watch it grow and watch us build as a family and as a unit. It’s amazing.
He definitely has the potential to be the best. Him as well as Antuanne, who is now on the 2016 Olympiajoukkue. It’s all information passed down from generation to generation. I feel as though they definitely have the ability to be better than me. I would want them to be anyway.
(On what he needs to win the fight…)
I need to maintain control of the fight, close the distance and maintain the jab. Complete dominance; I want to touch the body early. He likes to move a lot, so we’re going to cut all that down.
(On potential future opponents…)
God willing, everything goes right come Huhtikuu 16, we would love to unify with Lee Selby. If I had my choice, I would go with Lee Selby first to unify. Immediately after that, I want Leo Santa Cruz and after that I need Lomachenko.
I don’t care where [Lomachenko] moves. He can lose his next 10 taistelee, but before my career’s done he has to see me.
PATRICK HYLAND
(On what gives him the sense of satisfaction in boxing…)
To fight for the WBC title is everything I’ve dreamed of since I was a kid and all of the hard work that I have put in to get to this position to fight for it. I am happy and I am just living for it now for Lauantai night.”
(On being the first Irish boxer since Barry McGuigan to hold a featherweight world title…)
It’s a whirlwind and it’s great. I’m just a local lad from Johnstown in Dublin and to be fighting on the big stage and to be fighting for a major world title, and again to be named the second featherweight ever to win a world title would be just amazing; a real dream come true for myself.
(On Gary Russell…)
I know he’s got fast hands. He’s a great southpaw and a great boxer so I have to be at the best of my ability lauantaina night for that. I worked on a game plan in the gym to counter his hand speed and it all has to come together on fight night. I can do all this and say all that, but I just have to perform lauantaina night and put it in by doing everything I’ve worked on to become champion.
Jose Pedraza
(On training camp)
I am feeling really good, we’re in the last stretch of conditioning. It was a very long and intense training camp but we saw improvements in my abilities. I have been waiting a long time for this day to come and we are going to demonstrate to Smith that I am a weapon.
(On Stephen Smith)
Smith is a very good boxer, he has a lot of abilities and intelligence. He’s a boxer with very good defense, but we already utilize a variety of strategies to be able to neutralize all of his abilities.
(On what he plans to demonstrate lauantaina…)
With my abilities, kuten esimerkiksi Lauantai, I will demonstrate that I am above Smith and that I am at the level of what I am, a champion. Yleinen, I just want to put on a show and I hope that the fan base will enjoy this great card.
(On what he learned from fighting Edner Cherry)
I learned what I have always said and what I have always done to this very day, which is never watching. I never watch too many videos of my opponent because on the day of the fight he could be a completely different fighter and I think that is what occurred then. Aside from that, he utilized a great strategy.
(On his thoughts on other Puerto Rican boxers)
Actually I am a world champion just like Rocky Martinez; there are many Puerto Rican prospects. Like [Felix] Verdejo but I don’t consider him as a world title contender just yet. He hasn’t fought with a boxer of championship caliber but he is currently among the top fighters in Puerto Rico.
(On other fights he may be interested in at 130 kiloa…)
I have always said that the less Puerto Ricans I fight, parempi. If it is the last option, I will fight with Puerto Ricans too but aside from that Rocky [Martinez] the world champ, there’s Francisco Vargas, [Javier] Onni, to name a few that are at the top of my list.
STEPHEN SMITH
(On his first time fighting in the U.S….)
“Olen innoissani. If you want to make a name in boxing, then you’re going to do it in the states and that’s what I plan on doing by becoming a world champion Saturday.
(On what he knows about Pedraza)
“Hyvin, not quite a lot. I know his name from the amateur days. He’s well established, he’s an Olympian and he’s a talented man. To fight somebody consists of winning or not, it goes beyond tactics, beyond style and beyond skillset really. I believe I have what it takes to fight anyone and nothing will keep me from becoming a world champion.
(On what he needs to do to get the victory)
It can be a different type of fight; we know he likes to switch it up and box from different stances. He’s obviously talented so it’s going to take a different set from each way but we know what to expect. I’ve gone over everything with my trainer Joe Gallagher and we’re ready to go.
(On his brothers Liam and Callum being champions and what it could mean to potentially join them)
It’s special. Two weeks ago Liam and Callum won a European world title and it just gives me the confidence, the spirit to hike. I’m in a really good place mentally and I couldn’t be feeling better going into it. After my boot camp going successfully, it just makes you feel better going ahead to become a world champion.
(On UK champions on the rise in the past year)
There’s a lot of history there and for myself and my family, so we do what we’ve always wanted to do and we’re looking to just keep moving forward.
TRAINER JOE GALLAGHER
(On training camp)
It was good. Obviously it boiled up to Callum’s win. There’s a good momentum. Callum and then Stephen has his world title opportunity. It’s been a slow burning rise with Stephen but he’s got, as I call it ‘his World Cup final’ — something that is going to take heart and strength. His strength is going very well. Pedraza is a very good fighter, good orthodox, good southpaw, he can mix it up and we’re prepared for whatever style he wants to bring lauantaina.”
(On the process of preparing for a fighter like Pedraza)
It’s a nightmare. It’s hard enough when you’re fighting a quality orthodox or a quality southpaw, of which he is, but not only that. He can also box on the back foot and on the front foot so we’re varying sparring partners, we’re mixing up the sparring in between the rounds, switching stances, and whichever way Pedraza wants to fight at the end of the night, I’m sure we’ll have an answer for.
(On how he feels the fight will play out)
I think that’s all up to Pedraza, looking back at a few of his fights, he boxes slow and gets off to a good start but then he seems to lose his way a little in rounds. When you watch him against [Andrey] Klimov, he started out very well, put him under manners very quickly and had him nearly beat by the fourth round but [Andrey] managed to stay in very well and boxed really well. He got to the middle rounds, lost his way a little bit, switched southpaw, so either way it’s going to be fascinating. We’ve just got to make sure we don’t get caught to early when he’s quick and he’s sharp and he’s trying to put manners in Stephen Smith and then take him into the deep waters like Edner Cherry.
(His prediction)
Stephen Smith. Possibly by knockout. Älä, definitely by knockout.

This is everything we’ve ever dreamed of. This is going to be a great night of boxing and I’m preparing myself for war. Austin Trout is a seasoned vet.

I’m ready to make history.
I’m extremely excited and grateful for the opportunity to fight for the world title on Toukokuu 21,” sanoi Taimen. “It’s a twice-in-a-lifetime chance for a second world title and I’m going to take full advantage of it. I’m working hard and have already been in training camp in D.C. and ready to take full advantage of the moment.

I’m excited to get in the ring and I know John Jackson is too. This is an important time in my career and I will be well prepared. Let the best man win.
I’m very grateful for this opportunity to become a world champion,” Said Jackson. “I’ve been training very hard for the last two months for this fight and come Toukokuu 21 I will be victorious over Jermell Charlo and realize my lifelong dream of becoming a world champion, like my dad, the great Julian Jackson.

Alla on mitä taistelijoita oli sanottavaa:

 

RUSLAN PROVODNIKOV

“As soon as I heard the name John Molina, I jumped on it. Molina fights with the type of style that people want to see. He brings the action.

 

"Kesäkuu 11 is another Fight of the Year-type fight. Voit odottaa ilotulitus.

 

“People expect action fights when I get in the ring. I appreciate that SHOWTIME saw a value in what I can offer and I want to make sure that I don’t let them down.

 

“I’ve only seen one fight of his, and that was the fight with (Lucas) Matthysse. That fight shows the type of fighter he is.

 

“I think our styles are going to clash. The reason people love this is because it’s unpredictable. Nobody knows what’s going to happen on Kesäkuu 11. Nobody can even predict which way it’s going to go. We’re both punchers, we both go forward, we both fight in a risky style. I think that’s going to make this fight a fight that everybody should watch.

 

“The fight is already a huge motivation, but the fact that the Hall of Fame is the same weekend is definitely great. I’m definitely pleased to know that because hopefully one day I can be a part of that.”

 

 

JOHN MOLINA JR.

 

“We’re never say die fighters. We come forward. It’s literally like two trains that are going to collide. It’s a can’t miss fight.

 

“He’s a hell of a fighter. He has a big heart and a big will.

 

“Right now, my only focus is – and I know it sounds generic – but my only focus is on Ruslan Provodnikov. He deserves my undivided attention right now because he’s that kind of fighter.

 

“I have to prepare for someone that has a never say die attitude. He’s like a virus that will never go away. He’s a hell of a fighter – he has a big heart and a big will. It’s tough to beat a guy that wants to win.

 

“We’re going to give the fans a treat, a Gatti-Ward type fight. I expect nothing less. We can have a phone booth, we don’t need a big ring.

 

“The judges probably don’t even need to be there because we’re going to decide the fight ourselves.”

 

Demetrius ANDRADE

 

“Willie Nelson, he’s going to come in and he’s going to try and throw those power shots. He’s going to try to stomp me down and make a statement, but I’ve been doing this for too long. I’m just ready to be where I need to be, where I deserve to be, and that’s on the top.

“I’m not worried about ring rust. I stayed in the gym like a true champion should. I’m still young in the game so I don’t think I should have any problems seeing or ducking any punches.

 

“I’m confident and I know I’m the best 154-pounder out there and this fight right here is going to let people know that I’m back in business.

 

“Everybody knows the work that I’ve put in. The time is now and the time is coming.

 

“I’m ready to re-introduce myself to boxing fans and show them I’m the best 154-pounder in the world.

 

“After this fight with Willie Nelson, I plan on fighting the winner of Jermell Charlo and John Jackson and getting that WBC belt. Ja sen jälkeen, I want to face the rest of the division and prove I’m the best.”

RUSSIA’S ZUBOV LIVING OUT HIS DREAMS FIGHTING FOR DETROIT’S KRONK GYM WHILE PREPARING FOR HIS SHOBOX: THE NEW GENERATION DEBUT THIS FRIDAY, Huhtikuu 15

BROOKLYN, New York (Huhtikuu 12, 2016) – As a kid growing up in Magnitogorsk, Venäjä,Cruiserweight Alexey Zubov heard stories about the fabled Kronk Gym and the late legendary trainer Emanuel Steward, but never thought he’d have a chance to join the team. But then one day, the former amateur champion was asked to come to Detroit to spar with Kronk’s Johnathon Banksand the rest is history.
Tämä Perjantai, Huhtikuu 15, the undefeated Zubov (10-0, 6 KOs) will face Mandilesti, Moldova’s Constantin Bejenaru (10-0, 4 KOs, WSB: 0-1-1) in the eight-round opener of an internationally televised ShoBox: New Generation live on SHOWTME (10 p.m. JA/PT, viivästynyt länsirannikolla) Turning Stone Resort Casino Verona, New York.
Presented by Salita Promotions in association with AASHA Record Breakers,the mainevent will featureIBF No. 10-sijoittui kääpiösarjalainen Nikolay Potapov (14-0, 6 KOs), of Podolsk, Venäjä, ottamista Stephon Young (14-0-2, 6 KOs), St. Ludvig, Missouri in a 10-round bout. Vuonna yhteistyössä päätapahtuma, Eudy Bernardo (21-0, 15 KOs) of the Dominican Republic faces Muurari “Rock Hard Mighty” Menard (30-1-0, 22 KOs), of Rayne, Louisiana, kahdeksan kierroksen taistelussa.

I’ve been in Detroit for the last two months and I am so happy; I want to stay here, train here and live here,” said Zubov. “Every Russian fighter knows about Kronk Gym and Emanuel Steward.
Zubov is currently winding down camp with his trainer and Steward’s nephew Javan “Sokeri” Hill at the resurgent Kronk Gym. “I like Javan’s style,” said Zubov, “and I’ve learned so much about hand speed and footwork and about using intelligence in the ringhow you need to think when you’re in a fight.
Alexey is able to learn a lot and absorb boxing knowledge easily,” said Hill. “He barely speaks English and yet he soaks it in. It’s amazing. I brought him in to spar with Banks and when we were training, Alexey just sat on the side and watched. Myöhemmin, he was sparring with Johnathon and I told him to stop. I said ‘listen here. I’m training Jonathon Banks and you’re doing everything I told him to do. What’s wrong with you?’ Then I laughed and said ‘I like that. Keep watching. I’ll teach you everything you want to know.’ “
Hill says this camp with Zubov was a transition for the fighter. “We are moving into the championship level where you train for a specific fighter. A lot of it is strategy and planning. The only thing I worry about is him being too excited. He’s very high-strung and wants to prove things. I have to control him and keep him from getting over-excited. That’s what we’ve been working on. He gets antsy when he’s excited.
Training was prefect. Olen 100 prosenttia valmiina,” said Zubov. “I know Bejenaru is a southpaw and he is a short guy with a good record. It’s my first time on SHOWTIME and I am so happy to be showing the world what I can do.

Tässä taistelijoiden oli sanottava olympiakokemuksistaan, fighting on the same card, advice to the 2016 team and more:
On fighting in televised fights on the same card:
Errol Spence Jr.: My pro debut was on the ‘Night of the Olympiansand it had me, Terrell Gausha, Marcus Browne, and Rau’Shee Warren. These are the kind of nights we envisioned. It’s so great to see my friends and Olympic brothers doing as well as me.
Marcus Browne: We always thought about nights like these where we’re both center stage. This couldn’t have happened if we didn’t keep our records clean and fought hard. To have gotten to this point alongside an Olympic teammate is an amazing thing. I look forward to both of us being propelled to the next level.
On their favorite Olympic memories:
ES: My favorite memory is competing and being around all of the great athletes. I got to meet Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony, Serena Williams ja Michael Phelps. Kaikki nämä urheilijat, jotka olin nähnyt televisiossa. Tässä ilmapiirissä oleminen auttoi minua ymmärtämään, että olen suuri urheilija muiden suurten urheilijoiden joukossa.
MB: “Se kuulostaa materialistiselta, mutta kaikki saamamme ilmaiset varusteet olivat hämmästyttäviä. Tulen minne tulen, Minulle ei ollut koskaan aiemmin annettu mitään sellaista. Olin yllättynyt ihailusta, jota sain ihmisiltä. Kaikki halusivat vain saada meidät tuntemaan osan tätä uskomatonta tapahtumaa.
Kuinka olympialaiset valmistivat heitä ammattilaisille:
ES: “Olympiavaihe valmistaa sinut mihin tahansa. Se on maailman suurin turnaus. Pidetään mediapäivää ja puhutaan kaikille niille myyntipisteille ja sitten koulutetaan, se valmistaa sinut ammattilaisille. Kun pääset huipulle, joudut tekemään nuo samat asiat.
MB: “Taistelu edessä 10,000 ihmiset, jotka hurraavat sinua vastaan, valmistavat sinut mihin tahansa tässä urheilussa. Monet ihmiset eivät saa sitä ennen kuin he ovat korkeimmalla tasolla. Ilmapiiri on vain niin kiihkeä ja olympiafanit ovat niin intohimoisia.
Joukkovelkakirjasta he jakavat olympiakaverinsa kanssa:
ES: “Meillä kaikilla tiimissä on suuri site. Aina kun vietät neljä kuukautta leirillä saman kaveriryhmän kanssa ja harjoittelet ja laihdutat yhdessä, sinusta tulee hyvin läheinen. Se luo automaattisesti luonnollisen sidoksen ja yhteyden. He ovat minulle kuin veljiä.
MB: “Veljeskunnan sidos tulee aina olemaan riippumatta siitä, puhutko joka päivä vai joka kolmas vuosi. Vietetään jokainen heräämishetki näiden kavereiden kanssa ja lauletaan "Tähtien Spangled Banner"’ joka aamu, rakennamme ryhmäsidoksen ja henkilökohtaisia ​​ystävyyssuhteita, jotka ovat meille niin tärkeitä.
Heidän vaikutelmistaan ​​toisesta:
ES: “Marcus oli aina äänekäs olympiakeskuksessa. Marcus kannusti aina kaikkia työskentelemään kovasti ja harjoittelemaan kovemmin. Haluan olla kuin Evander Holyfield. Hän ja hänen olympiakaverinsa, kuten Pernell Whitaker, pitivät vyötä samanaikaisesti.
MB: “Errol ja minä olemme eräänlaisia ​​vastakohtia. Errol on enemmän hiljainen ja varattu kaveri. Hän työskentelee ahkerasti ja juoksee kuin gaselli. Hän taistelee kovasti ja päivän päätteeksi hän on vain hyvä kaveri. Suunnitelman mukaan meidän kaikkien tulee olla maailmanmestareita ja tehdä suuria asioita.
Heidän neuvonsa 2016 US-. Olympiajoukkue:
ES: “Kerroisin 2016 team to just keep doing what they’re doing. Stay focused. Don’t get too big headed. Listen to your coaches and do everything you’ve been doing. The Olympics are right around the corner and we want to see medals in the men’s division this year.
MB:I just want to tell the team to make sure you get all the international experience you can get and fight hard for your country.

New British & Irish Professional Boxing Sanctioning Organization Launches

 

 

British and Irish boxers and promoters are set to have a choice of National Licensing and Sanctioning Authority for the first time in living memory, as a new Professional Boxing Governing, Sanctioning and Licensing organization for the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland officially launches this month.

 

In the past the British and Irish professional boxers have had little choice but to be licensed with either the British Boxing Board of Control (BBBofC) Yhdistyneessä kuningaskunnassa, or the Boxing Union of Ireland (BUI) in the Republic of Ireland.

 

The only feasible alternative available, being via the overseas licensing route, through organizations such as the Malta Boxing Commission (MBC) or the German Boxing Association (GBA), which have both successfully sanctioned numerous events in the British Isles over the past few years.

 

Kuitenkin, that is all set to change with the introduction of the BRITISH & IRISH BOXING AUTHORITY (BIBA), an organization formed by the team that has successfully operated the Malta Boxing Commission’s UK and Irish division for the past three years and several former BBBofC officials.

 

The British & Irish Boxing Authority is set to begin operation with immediate effect, having incorporated Malta Boxing Commission’s entire British and Irish division into the new organization, following the MBC Executive Committee’s decision to revert and concentrate their efforts on the licensing and sanctioning of boxers and events in the Republic of Malta for the foreseeable future.

 

For further information on the British & Irish Boxing Authority (BIBA) please see the official website; www.boxbiba.com and also please follow on Facebookwww.facebook.com/BibaBoxing ja Twitter www.twitter.com/BIBABoxing
