Berikut adalah apa yang para pejuang harus mengatakan Hari Kamis:
JULIAN WILLIAMS
I want to thank Matano and his team for coming all the way over here. We’ve had a difficult time getting opponents for different reasons, but I’m excited to headline this stacked card.
When I win this fight I’ll be able to accomplish my dream of being a world champion. It’s one step closer.
I’m going to attack the head and body as much as I can. I’ve got enough film on him to see what he’s got. He’s pretty solid. He got better each time out. But those guys in Italy don’t have the skills that I have. I think he’s going to bring it for as long as he can handle it.
He’s an awkward fighter. He’s definitely a boxer and he can be a little skittish in the ring. I know I’ve fought the better competition and I’ve trained my hardest for this.
I’m ready to make a statement. I’m not worried about a knockout. However the win comes, it’s great. I’m just looking to win and beat him down.
I’m expecting a good Philadelphia crowd to be out here supporting me. Ninety percent of my career I’ve been on the West Coast and other places. But now fighting in front of my hometown fans, there’s nothing better. It’s perfect.
MARCELLO MATANO
I feel very good. I’ve been here since Friday so I have gotten used to the time zone difference and I’m ready to fight. My American experience is just starting and I’m looking forward to it.
It’s been a hard two months of training for this fight. This is by far the most important fight of my career so I’ve trained even harder than I usually do.
I know that Julian Williams is a top-notch athlete and that he is coming to give his best, seperti saya. It’s going to be an exciting fight because we both want to get to the top.
I can adapt myself to any opponent. I can be a boxer or I can be a brawler. But in my heart, I am a warrior and I will come forward all fight. I am coming to leave that ring victorious.
This is a dream come true to come here to the United States. I’ve always worked hard and it’s gotten me here. I will put all of my heart into the ring pada hari Sabtu malam.”
ANTOINE DOUGLAS
You can always look forward to an action-packed fight when I step into the ring. I have an admirable opponent who I know is coming to fight.
I’ve grown into this role and into who I am. If you asked me earlier in my career, I would have never thought I’d be here. This is great and it comes from all the hard work I’ve put in over the years.
You will see my growth Hari Sabtu night in the ring. I plan on being victorious. The work I put in won’t let me be any less than that. I’m looking forward to the action.
I have a very strong opponent and I think it will make for a more exciting fight than Sam Soliman.
I just always have to be prepared for whatever is thrown at me. Ini tinju – there are no guarantees. We just have to be prepared for everything and do our best.
The styles of Soliman and Khurtsidze are completely different, but we always base our offense and defense off a fighting at range and working the jab. I’m not going in blindI’ve faced opponents who come forward. We’ll be ready for him and ready to make the adjustments in the ring.
“Kemenangan pada hari Sabtu will definitely put me in a position for a title shot. We just take it day-by-day. It’s not about looking at future opponents. We take each step successfully and see where it puts us.
AVTANDIL KHURTSIDZE
I’m very happy to be here and I’m grateful for the opportunity. I’m fighting a very strong fighter. Once I step into the ring I’m expecting a good challenge and I can’t wait for Hari Sabtu malam.
Everything in training went well. We’ve trained really hard and we’re ready for Hari Sabtu malam.
Douglas is a good fighter. He’s a good boxer and he has a good left hook. But none of that means anything until you get in the ring.
Once I step into the ring, I will bring 100 persen. I am not going to stop swinging until Douglas goes down.
FERNANDO GUERRERO
We’re ready to fight. We had a great training camp and there’s not too much to say. It’s warrior time.
I’ve been through my ups and downs, but I’m still here and I’m not going anywhere. This is for my whole nation, everyone in the Dominican Republic who is watching. You have to step in that ring for something.
This isn’t a game. This is the only sport that you cannot play. I’m going to make this one of those fights that will be one of the best of the year. It will either be the best knockout or the best fight of the year. This is going to be memorable.
This is the kind of opponent who will bring out the best of me. Everybody has to watch out for me. Aku datang untuk membuat pernyataan pada hari Sabtu.”

Ricky Hatton: “Browne winning the Heavyweight title would be huge for my company

Undefeated Lucas Browne to Collide with Ruslan Chagaev for the WBA World Heavyweight Title LIVE Sabtu ini on AWE at 2 PM ET

San Diego, SEPERTI – Bulan Maret 3, 2016 – Ini Hari Sabtu sore hari, March 5th, undefeated and number-two ranked WBA heavyweight contender Lucas “Big Daddy” Browne(23-0-0) will battle defending WBA World Heavyweight champ Ruslan Chagaev (34-2-1) untuk sabuknya. The bout will be broadcast LANGSUNG in the United States on AWE – Sebuah Kekayaan Hiburan.
The action begins live at 2 PM ET / 11 AM PT.
Browne is promoted by former two-division world champion and British Idol, Ricky Hatton and the Manchester great has a lot on the line Sabtu ini if Browne can come through with the victory.
It would be massive for my company, very significant,”said Hatton. “Lucas would be my first world champion as a promoter, and it’s fantastic that it would be a Heavyweight title. I was a two-time world champion as a fighter. I have trained a world champion, so I don’t know many people who have done all three as a trainer, fighter and a promoter. “
To have Browne in this position, the fighter turned promoter, is thrilled for his fighter, being that Browne was not sought after in his early career.
I am very happy for Lucas. He came up the hard way. He was not an Olympian. Faktanya, it was just a few years ago, that he was working doors at the night clubs and he has put in the hard work and this is a big night for me and my company.
Despite the fight being in enemy territory, “Hitman The”, feels his fighter is in good hands as Browne is being trained by former super middleweight world champion and British great, Nigel Benn.
He has a great team behind him. An excellent trainer. It is going to be a tough job, but I firmly believe that he will win the fight. It will be difficult as Chagaev was a big amateur and now a world champion. Lucas who has always been known as a puncher is moving a lot better on his feet. Very fluid. Lucas has also added speed and has had great preparation.
Being in enemy territory, Hatton knows that the fight may come down to the judges, and he believes that Browne will get a fair shake.
I would like to think that Lucas will not need a knockout to win, but judges can be swayed by the hometown fans, but this being a world title fight, I expect world class judges. Itu dikatakan, Lucas should not leave it to chance.
With a Browne win, there is a chance a good portion heavyweight division would run through the United Kingdom as Unified champion Tyson Fury and potentially Anthony Joshua (who fights IBF champion Charles Martin on Bulan April 9) would hold most of the hardware in boxing’s glamour division.
I thought about that. I get along well with Eddie Hearn, who has Joshua. I get a long great with my former promoter Frank Warren and you can also throw David Haye in there who is back. I can’t see any problems making fights with Joshua or Fury and we would have some massive heavyweights fights here. Lucas has fought five times here and has a good fan base.
The only thing that I am gutted about pada hari Sabtu is that I can’t be there with Lucas when he wins as I train a lot of young fighters and I have four of them fighting pada hari Sabtu and they need me in London with them, tapi Hari Sabtu will be a great day for my company.
There will be a three fight undercard beginning at 2 PM.
In a 10-round Heavyweight bout, Edmund Gerber (25-2, 16 KO) of Schwerin, Germany will fight Brian Minto (41-10, 26 KO) of Butler, PA.
In a 10-round bout for the IBO International Welterweight title, Vishkahn Murzabekodi (12-0, 6 KO) of Russia takes on former world title challenger Ali Funeka (37-5-3, 30 KO) of South Africa.
Tyrone Spong (2-0, 2 KO) dari Miami, Florida battles David Gogishvilli (12-0, 8 Aku s) of Gori, Georgia in a 6-round Cruiserweight bout.

Lopez, stayed undefeated by winning a comfortable unanimous decision over previously Mario Munoz on February 19th in Atlantic City that headlined a ShoBox: The New Generation card..
Odom and Ellis fought to a spirited draw in a Super Middleweight bout. On another televised bout, Foster was dominant in stopping Lavisas Williams. On the non-televised card, Hector Frometa went to 2-0 dengan kemenangan keputusan bulat.

Douglas is currently ranked number-six by the WBA, number-eleven by the IBF and number-three by the WBO, while Lopez is ranked number-seven by the WBA.
This is all a product of moving our guys fast and right and by not babying them on the way up.

Dalam perayaan persaingan terbaik di SHOWTIME, lihat di bawah untuk kolom khusus dari analis ahli SHOWTIME Sports dan sejarawan tinju Steve Farhood.

 

LEGENDS

Oleh Steve Farhood

 

Tinju tanpa legenda akan seperti agama tanpa orang suci.

Tidak ada formula bagi seorang petarung untuk maju dari bintang menjadi superstar menjadi legenda. Prosesnya tergantung waktu, keadaan, dan terkadang hanya satu atau dua poin pada juri’ kartu-kartu.

Dan oh, ya: Ini membantu jika seorang pria benar-benar bisa bertarung.

Saat kita merayakan 30 tahun bertinju di SHOWTIME, kami fokus pada tema yang berbeda setiap bulan. Sepanjang Maret, temanya adalah Legenda.

Dalam 130 tahun dari John L. Sullivan ke Floyd Mayweather, tinju telah memberi kita apa yang olahraga lain tidak bisa berikan. Mempertimbangkan:

  • The Associated Press memilih Luis Firpo knockdown of Jack Dempsey sebagai momen olahraga terbesar di paruh pertama abad ke-20.
  • The Frazier-Ali "Fight Of The Century" in 1971 dengan mudah menjadi acara olahraga yang paling diantisipasi dalam sejarah.
  • Pertarungan Mayweather-Pacquiao tahun lalu menghasilkan lebih dari setengah miliar dolar — dalam satu malam!

Legenda dibuat oleh momen-momen besar … dan bagaimana mereka menanggapi momen-momen itu.

Pada SHOWTIME, kami telah menampilkan legenda selama tiga dekade. Berikut ini pandangan mereka yang akan berbagi sorotan di bulan Maret.

MARVIN HAGLER: Karena Vince Lombardi tidak mengatakannya dengan tepat, “Pengaturan waktu bukanlah segalanya, itu satu-satunya,Hagler seharusnya mengatakannya.

Hagler adalah petarung hebat jauh sebelum dia menjadi superstar, tapi tidak sampai dia melawan Roberto Duran, Thomas Hearns, dan Sugar Ray Leonard (tiga dari enam pertarungan terakhir Hagler) bahwa Marvin menjadi Luar Biasa.

Satu penampilan Hagler di SHOWTIME, yang kebetulan merupakan pertarungan pertama yang disiarkan di jaringan (Bulan Maret 1986), adalah kemenangan terakhir dalam karirnya. Tak terkalahkan 10 tahun, Hagler telah membuktikan dirinya sebagai salah satu kelas menengah terbesar dalam sejarah. Dan sementara dapat diperdebatkan di belakang bahwa pada usia 31, petarung kerah biru pamungkas sedikit melewati masa jayanya, banyak dari apa yang membuat Hagler istimewa diperlihatkan selama pembelaannya yang kejam terhadap penantangnya yang tak terkalahkan dan ganas, John Mugabi.

Hampir tiga dekade setelah pensiun, Hagler tetap menjadi kelas menengah saat ini dengan 160 pon diukur.

GULA RAY LEONARD: Jika Hagler mekar terlambat, Leonard adalah seorang superstar sebelum dia melemparkan satu pukulan sebagai seorang profesional.

Kembali di pertengahan tahun 70-an, itulah senyuman yang magnetis, medali emas olimpiade, dan paparan berulang di televisi prime time bisa dilakukan untuk seorang pejuang muda.

Sungguh ironis bahwa Leonard pada awalnya dipandang oleh beberapa orang sebagai ciptaan media yang dimanjakan. Faktanya, dia sekuat petarung bertabur bintang di awal tahun 80-an. Lebih baik, dia tetap menjadi petarung terbaik yang pernah saya bahas 38 tahun di pukulan tinju.

Penampilan Leonard di SHOWTIME adalah pertarungan kedua dari belakang dalam karirnya. Dalam memilih untuk mengakhiri PHK panjang lainnya, Sugar Ray, 34, memilih peraih gelar kelas welter super berusia 23 tahun, Terry Norris sebagai lawannya. Leonard turun dari 160 untuk 154 pound dan bertarung di Madison Square Garden untuk pertama kalinya.

Pertarungan itu berfungsi sebagai pengingat bahwa setidaknya di dunia pra-Bernard Hopkins, tinju adalah permainan anak muda.

FELIX TRINIDAD: Hanya ada tiga pejuang Hispanik yang menjadi superstar di AS tanpa berbicara bahasa Inggris. Yang pertama adalah Roberto Duran dari Panama. Yang kedua adalah Julio Cesar Chavez dari Meksiko.

Yang ketiga adalah Trinidad Puerto Riko.

Motto Trinidad mungkin juga demikian, “Jika Anda tidak bisa dari Amerika, lalu kalahkan Amerika. ”

Pons klasik dengan senyuman pramuka dan kepribadian yang ramah penggemar, Trinidad membuat namanya dengan mengalahkan empat AS. Olympians, Pernell Whitaker, Oscar De La Hoya (meskipun dengan keputusan yang buruk), David Reid, dan Fernando Vargas.

Tambahan Pula, Whitaker, De La Hoya, dan Reid semuanya adalah peraih medali emas.

Pertarungan yang akan kita bahas Bulan Maret 17 pada SHO EXTREME, Trinidad vs.. Reid, adalah penampilan ke-14 Trinidad dan penampilan terakhirnya di SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING dan SHOWTIME bayar-per-tayang.

Dari kayo pemenang gelar kelas welternya Maurice Blocker di 1993 melalui pertahanannya melawan Mahenge Zulu masuk 1998, 13 dari Trinidad 14 pertarungan disiarkan pada SHOWTIME. Dua belas dari pertarungan itu adalah kemenangan KO.

Di mana Trinidad sejajar dengan Wilfredo Gomez, Miguel Cotto, Carlos Ortiz, Wilfred Benitez, dan legenda lainnya dari Puerto Rico masih bisa diperdebatkan. Apa yang tidak bisa dibantah adalah bahwa "Tito" menghasilkan kegembiraan yang sama seperti petarung di jamannya.

RICARDO LOPEZ: Apa yang lebih kecil: kemungkinan bahwa strawweight (105 pon) menjadi bintang televisi Amerika atau petarung itu sendiri?

Tidak pernah ada juara dunia kelas jerami Amerika (atau bobot minimum). Kami hanya tidak menumbuhkan pejuang sebesar itu. Faktanya, sampai kemunculan Lopez dari Meksiko di awal tahun 90-an, sebagian besar penggemar tinju Amerika tidak dapat mengidentifikasi satu pun kelas jerami jika dipersenjatai dengan peta dunia dan serangkaian peringkat WBC.

Lopez sangat lengkap, sangat dominan, sangat sempurna secara teknis, itu dari 1994 ke '99, dia adalah inti dari program tinju SHOWTIME. Dia berkelahi 13 pertarungan berturut-turut di SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING atau SHOWTIME Pay-Per-View, dan yang pertama 11 dari kontes itu adalah mempertahankan gelar kelas jerami.

Dan jika Anda berpikir orang-orang kecil tidak bisa meninju, dengan baik, ada beberapa kayo satu pukulan yang ditaburkan.

Lopez, yang pensiun dengan tanda 51-0-1, secara universal diakui sebagai yang terbaik sepanjang masa. Sayang sekali dia tidak pernah bertarung melawan Michael Carbajal dari Amerika di kelas terbang ringan. Apakah dia memenangkan pertarungan itu?, dia kemungkinan akan diakui sebagai salah satu dari dua atau tiga petarung Meksiko terhebat yang pernah ada.

Yang mengatakan banyak untuk seorang pejuang yang tidak pernah menghadapi lawan yang diakui oleh publik Amerika menonton.

Here is what Julian and his trainer, Stephen Edwards, harus mengatakan Hari Selasa:
JULIAN WILLIAMS
I am extremely focused. There is a lot at stake Sabtu ini. I am finally in the position I wanted to be in since turning pro.
I have come to a conclusion that if people don’t have to fight Julian Williams then they won’t. It hasn’t been that frustrating though because I always have a fight on the books. I can’t worry about the people who won’t fight me. I just have to stay ready and put myself in the mandatory spot. That’s what I am going to do pada hari Sabtu malam.
It’s never any challenge fighting at home. I know exactly what I have to do. I don’t cut any corners in camp. The biggest challenge is the waiting because I am so anxious to get in there and get a win, especially in front of my home crowd.
I always knew I wanted to pursue a boxing career, so I treat it like I want it. I’ve been dreaming about this for a long time and my opportunity is finally here.
I’ve been a student of the game since I started watching boxing. I want to learn and I want to know everything about boxing.
It means everything to have my biggest fight to date in my backyard. I know my fans cheer loud and it feels great to have their support in my corner.
I know everything about my opponent. I probably know what kind of toothpaste he used this morning. I searched high and low for videos of Matano. I am ready because I know he is ready.
He is a little bit awkward. He seems to have a really good gas tank. He said he wants to take me the distance, jadi kita akan melihat.
The last fight solidified the things that I already knew about myself. I know I am fundamentally sound and I know I am the hungriest fighter in the world.
I always want to put on an explosive performance. It’s always about a win.
In about nine months, Philadelphia will have it’s fourth IBF super welterweight champion after David Reid, Robert Hines and Buster Drayton.
STEPHEN EDWARDS, Williams’ pelatih
We are ready. It’s been a long four-month camp. We thought were going to fight in January, so we’ve been grinding through this rough weather early in the morning. Julian is chomping at the bit and ready to rock ‘n roll.
We thought we were going to fight Austin Trout in December, and he saw that Julian gave his opponent a concussion and said I don’t want to fight him. It’s just that simple. We have to get past Matano and then we can talk about (super welterweight champion Jermall) Charlo.
Anybody with two hands and a heartbeat can fight. Matano is ranked and just because he isn’t well known, it doesn’t mean he can’t fight. Dia adalah 16-1 and they didn’t have a hard time convincing him to take the fight. The best soldiers are volunteers. Any time someone willingly comes to someone else’s country, you have to take him seriously.
I don’t want to make a prediction, but Julian will hurt this guy very bad.

Yehuda (42-9, 29 Biaya), berjuang keluar dari Las Vegas, has been a professional boxer for nearly 20 tahun. The southpaw has defeated seven world champions during his outstanding career: Junior Witter, Terron Millet, DeMarcus Corley, Raphael Pineda, Corey Spinks, Joshua Clottey dan(interim champ) Lucas Matthysse. The Brooklyn native has an outstanding 11-8 (9 Biaya) rekor dalam pertarungan gelar dunia.
Saat Ini, meskipun, his past is in the rearview mirror and Judah’s on a mission to capture his sixth world title. That’s what drives the 38-year-old originally from Brooklyn. “I’m very happy to be headlining the first show of the ‘Knockout Night at the D’ seri,” Judah said. “I’m always comfortable and happy in the squared ring. I enjoy the sport of boxing and have one more goalto be six-time world champion of the world!”
Due to a variety of reasons, Judah has been out of action for two years, but that doesn’t necessarily mean he hasn’t been ready to rock in the ring. “Saya sangat senang bisa kembali di atas ring,” Judah remarked. “I helped Floyd (Mayweather) get ready for (Manny)Pacquiao and last May came out of that camp in great shape. I’ve been ready to fight since then.
I’ve studied him (Torres) and he’s a hungry, young guy with a great opportunity in front of him. We aren’t overlooking him.
The 24-year-old Torres (15-4-2, 7 Biaya) may not have the same name recognition as many of Judah’s past opponents, but the determined prospect from Albuquerque, NM has nothing to lose and everything to gain fighting Judah.
I believe this fight can be life changing, not only for me, but also for upcoming New Mexico fighters,” Torres commented. “Boxing doesn’t get a lot of attention in my state.
Torres is a protégé of the late 5-time world championJohnny Tapia. His brother-in-law, Chris Chavez, now trains Torres, who has been sparring with fellow New Mexican and former world junior middleweight champion, Austin Trout, to prepare for the left-handed Judah.
Torres is also a professional barber who’d like to clip Judah, boleh dikatakan. “I haven’t had a promoter or manager,” he explained the need for him to be a barber as well as a pro boxer. “I’ve always had to work to pay bills. It’s just had to be that way in my boxing career.
