ЛОС-АНДЖЕЛЕС (Січень 19, 2016) In front of a packed house at Club Nokia at L.A. У прямому ефірі у вівторок night in downtown Los Angeles, Premier Boxing Champions kicked off PBC On FOX Fight Week In Los Angeles with an exciting fight card on ГО до п'ят вівторках на FS1 і Бокс чемпіонів на FOX Депортес.
Headlining the card, непереможеним напівсередній Джамал Джеймс of Burnsville, Міннесота (19-0, 9 КО), won a 10-round unanimous decision over local favorite Хав'єр Моліна, (17-2, 8 КО). Scores (99-91, 98-92 і 97-93) were surprisingly wide as most ringside observers thought it was a much closer fight.
Battling from the opening bell, James and Molina each had success with swift jabs and power shots throughout the first half of the fight. The intensity continued in the second half with both fighters sensing the bout was hanging in the balance of each stanza.
Said James, “I thought when he first came out in the first couple of rounds, it was pretty close. He was making it a tough fight. Як боротьба тривала, I got him to fight my fight. I kept him on the outside.
“I stuck to my game plan. I felt like I should have been busier. He had some tricky movement with his feet. The range was tough. I had a hard time finding my range, but once I found it, everything fell into place.
“I believe I did gain a lot of fans сьогодні ввечері and I can’t wait to get back in the ring.”
Stated Molina, “Я думав, що це був рукопашний бій. У мене був план гри, but I should have stayed inside more. He got wild and I stayed there and let him go out I started locking up. He would throw some punches that I shouldn’t have let him. I didn’t really do what I had to do.
“I didn’t feel like the scorecards were fair. One judge only gave me one round. No way that was right. Either way I think I fought a good fight.
“I felt like I had a lot of people behind me. I am bummed out and I feel like I let them down. I didn’t pull it off. I just hope I gave them an exciting fight.”
Середній проспект Калеб завод of Nashville, Штат Теннесі. (12-0, 9 КО) stayed undefeated with an entertaining sixth-round stoppage of Spain’s Adatar Rodriguez (11-5-2, 7 КО).
Plant showed excellent technique and defense keeping Rodriguez off-balance with an array of power shots. Battering the valiant Rodriguez who suffered two facial cuts, Plant earned the stoppage as the one-sided bout was stopped at 2:37 of the sixth round.
“My performance was great. We are always looking to get better. I stayed patient,” Саїд завод. “I’ve fought on five or six PBC cards. Це благословення.
“I want to dedicate this to my daughter Leah in heaven. She passed last year on Січень 29. The anniversary is 10 days away and she gives me a lot of motivation.
“I want to get back in the gym and get back as soon as I can. I’m not interested in taking time off. I’m a professional and this is what I do day in and day out.”
In a scheduled six round super middleweight clash, нокаутом художник Malcolm McAllister(7-0, 7 КО) who represented nearby Long Beach knocked out Tyrone Selders of Baton Rouge, Луїзіана (9-7-1, 6 КО) in the third stanza. Dropped in the first round, Cobb also suffered a cut over his right yet as McAllister set a relentless pace.
Continuing to batter Selders in the next two rounds, McAllister was awarded the victory as referee Zachary Young stopped the bout at the 2:39 mark of the third round.
Stated McAllister, “I am always going to do what I have to do. I’m happy I beat a tough guy. Я боєць. Я прийшов, щоб боротися. I don’t care where it is, we come to fight. It’s a great opportunity and being on TV is a bonus.
“This is my backyard. There were more people here supporting me and cheering me on than I expected. That was a great feeling.”
Opening the telecast, undefeated super middleweight prospect Девід Бенавідес Фенікс (12-0, 11 КО) stopped Burlington, VT’s Kevin Cobb, (10-2, 4 КО) in the second round of their scheduled eight-round battle. Using heavy handed left hooks to the body, Benavidez controlled the action from the opening bell.
Staggering Cobb with an overhand right in the middle of the second round, Benavidez followed up with a full arsenal of power shots causing referee Raul Caiz Jr. to stop the bout at the time of 1:08.
About the victory, Benavidez said “I feel great we had a great training camp. If you saw my fight, I looked great as well. Phoenix has always had a lot of great talent, but not that many guys come out of Phoenix and I am proud of making a name for myself.
“I knew I was going to get my opponent out that fast. I saw him fight. He doesn’t have that many skills. He was running a lot in the first round and that’s why I didn’t get him out there sooner. As soon as I got my hands on him…it was goodnight.”
Four of the fighters featured on це суботу Premier Boxing Champions on FOX event were also on hand enjoying the fights to kick off their fight week.
Денні Гарсія
“There are some great fights сьогодні ввечері. I am happy my fighter Tommy Velasquez won by fourth round knockout. I am happy to be here.
“I am proud of my fighter, he had an excellent performance and got the guy out of there.
“This is a great week to start off my fight week, with a team win. The momentum is building and I can’t wait for Субота ніч.”
Семмі Васкес
“There are some great fights here and tough competitors. It makes me more excited for Saturday’s fights.
“This is where you need to showcase your skills. On TV is where you need to be dominant, you need to be 100 percent on your A game. If you’re not, it gives someone else an opportunity to take your spot.
“I don’t get to watch fights as a fan as much as I would like so this is a real treat for me.”
Домінік Breazeale
“This is a great way to kick off fight week. FS1 is here in town in downtown LA.
“I am excited about the workout завтра, press conference and the weigh-in. All of the activities coming up.
“These fights have been great so far. Guys going punch for punch, blow for blow, cut for cut.”
Амір Мансур
“My last fighter was Gerald Washington and he was taller than Breazeale. So you have to make adjustments for taller guys, but I’ve been fighting taller guys. you will see some definite changes in my game plan.
“I thought I won my last fight. I want to take the judges out of the equation.
“It’s sad that you’re putting your all into something. You’re making sacrifices and then you get in a situation that you have to knock the guy out.
“I’m surprised Breazeale took this fight. I’ve faced better competition.
“I’m really happy to be here and cheer on these up and coming fighters and start fight week watching some great fights.”

Fighter/Promoter Salita Says Detroit Was the Obvious Choice for Upcoming Series of Professional Boxing Shows

Залишити коментар
Detroit Brawl Banner
‘Detroit Brawl’ Begins Субота, Лютого 6, at the Masonic Temple
“I strongly feel that Detroit has a lot of potential to become a hub for pro boxing. Not only with its own talented fighters, but also for boxers from around the country and around the globe. With consistency, competitive fights and talented boxers there’s a tremendous amount of potential for world-class boxing in the city of Detroit.” Дмитро Саліта
World-class boxer turned promoter Dmitriy Salita, of Salita Promotions, says the choice to base his new series of live fights in Detroit was an easy one to make. A city and state that has produced such all-time greats as Floyd Mayweather, Tommy Hearns and Joe Louis to name a few, as well as legendary trainers such Emanuel Steward and Eddie Futch is, according to Salita, the perfect place to launch a succession of top-notch boxing shows.
Appropriately entitled the “Detroit Brawl,” the series will kick off at the iconic Masonic Temple in Downtown Detroit on Субота, Лютого 6 на 6:30 вечора. Featured that night will be a diverse array of up-and-coming prospects and established contenders from Michigan and around the world including Detroit’s James Gordon Smith (8-0, 5 КО), Ed Williams (10-1-1, 4 КО), James Ballard (5-0, 2 КО), and Antonio Wade (1-0, 1 KO), as well as former world title challenger and currently world-ranked cruiserweight Junior Wright of Chicago (14-1-1, 11 КО), undefeated Dominican Eudy Bernardo (20-0, 14 КО), Brooklyn’s Dimash Niyazov (8-0-3, 4 КО) and the professional debut of Turkmenistan’s former Asian Games Amateur Champion, Сердар Худайбердиев.
Квитки на “Detroit Brawl” за ціною $28, $38, $48, $63, $93, і $123 і are available at all Ticketmaster outlets, ticketmaster.com, по телефону 800-745-3000, or by visiting the Masonic Temple box office. For event information visit themasonic.com і SalitaPromotions.com.
“Detroit is America’s great comeback city and boxing fans love a comeback,” Саїд Слово, who once challenged for a world title and currently sports a 35-2-1, 18 KOs record as a fighter. “This city has some of the best homegrown boxers in the country and the world and we plan to highlight those talents throughout this series. I thought it was a natural to run consistent high-class show here. Detroit and the State of Michigan, as a whole, have a rich boxing culture: The boxing fans here will respond positively. And for the local up-and-comers, they will have a place close to home to build a fan base.”
Though he is Ukraine-born and Brooklyn-raised, Salita has a long history with the area, having trained here since early in his fighting career.
“I’ve been coming to Detroit for six years, to train at the Kronk Gym with Emanuel Steward and Sugar Hill, his nephew,” explained Salita. “I got a chance firsthand to see the Detroit boxing culture and witness its tremendous talent!”
33-year-old Salita started boxing at age 13 at Starret City Boxing Club in Brooklyn, Нью-Йорк, and went on to become a highly decorated amateur boxer before his professional career. “At the time I started boxing, the Starrett City Boxing Club was run by Jimmy O’Pharrow. It was one of the best gyms in New York City. It produced some of the best fighters in the world today. We all came up together and had ‘fights of the year’ sparring sessions almost every night. The competitive nature of those sparring sessions are what made me so successful in boxing, and when I came here to the Kronk gym I witnessed that same atmosphere.”
Still an active fighter, after losing his challenge to world champion Amir Khan in 2009, Salita says he looked around at his options and decided that with his strong fan base, becoming a promoter was a natural progression. Salita says he’s proud of diversity and talent level he’s been able to provide for the inaugural show of the series.
“I like that this show has several of Detroit’s up-and-coming stars and boxers from different places around the world as well. Junior Wright is world-ranked and one of the best cruiserweights in the world. He’s looking to get back to another world title shot. Eudy Bernardo, an undefeated lightweight prospect from the Dominican Republic, is looking to rise to the top of the division. And the Detroit fighters are some of the best including James Ballard, Eddie Williams and James Gordon Smith, a former national champion in the amateurs. Antonio Wade is another hot prospect from the Detroit area. We’ve also got Asian games gold medalist Serdar Hudayberdiyev making his pro debut. He’s already the greatest fighter his country has ever produced. People are flying out from Turkmenistan to see the fight. I’m very excited about this show and for the future of boxing in this great city!”

НЬЮ-ЙОРК (Січень. 17, 2016) – American heavyweight world champion Deontay Уайлдер defended his WBC title for the third time with a devastating ninth round knockout of Polish challenger Артур контактний в суботу ніч, live on SHOWTIME in front of 12,668 fans at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, N.Y.. ВІДЕО висвітиться: HTTP://s.sho.com/1Rtg0ac
With WBA and WBO Heavyweight World Champion Tyson Fury and Wilder’s mandatory challenger Alexander Povetkin watching from ringside, Уайлдер (36-0, 35 КО) impressed yet again in knocking out his 35ї opponent in 36 бої.
It was a close fight until Szpilka walked into a brutal right to the chin while throwing a wide left at 2:24of the ninth round. Szpilka fell onto his back and remained unconscious on the canvas for a few moments before responding to questions and stating he was fine. Штифт (20-2, 15 КО) was conversing and moving all his extremities, however he was taken to Lutheran Hospital on a stretcher as a precautionary measure.
“He’s doing good,” said Szpilka’s trainer Ronnie Shields. “He’s awake and knows exactly where he is. He didn’t want to go to the hospital, but he’s going as a precaution. It’s better safe than sorry.”
Power was the difference for Wilder, a 6-foot-7 bomber who landed 42 percent of his power shots against the southpaw opponent. The 30-year-old briefly celebrated his victory before checking to ensure that Szpilka was going to be fine.
“I told him he was a great contender,” Wilder said. “He came to give his all. He gave his all for Brooklyn. I always say two prayers. I say a team prayer and I say an individual prayer. I don’t want to hurt a man so he can’t go home to his family. We risk our lives every time we step in the ring. He’s definitely in my prayers and I hope he’s doing well.
“He was definitely a crafty guy,” continued Wilder. “I haven’t competed against a southpaw протягом трьох років. Він був жорстким конкурентом, but you’re fighting for a world title. It’s not supposed to be easy. I’m surprised it took that long, but we had 12 rounds and they can’t all can’t be pretty.”
Fury, the outspoken British unified world champion, climbed into the ring after the fight and claimed he wanted to fight Wilder in a unification blockbuster.
“Кожен раз,, any place, всюди. I’ll fight you in your backyard after I beat (Wladimir) Klitschko again.”
Уайлдер, the first American heavyweight champion in nearly a decade, dismissed Fury’s antics while promising he was game for a showdown that is undoubtedly one of the biggest fights that can be made in boxing.
“We all know Fury is just a phony,” Wilder said. “This is just an act. I’m not scared of anybody. We’ll come to your backyard. This is just an act – you’re not a real fighter. I don’t play. This isn’t wrestling. When you do step in that ring with me I promise you I will baptize you.
“I would love to fight him next, на жаль, I have other mandatories due. Make the date Tyson, I promise you.”
In the SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING opener, Чарльз Мартін won the IBF Heavyweight World Championship when Vyacheslav Glazkov suffered a right knee injury in the third round and was unable to continue. The fight was scored a third round TKO (1:50) after Glazkov told referee Earl Brown that he was unable to continue.
Мартін (23-0-1, 21 КО), who was the aggressor throughout the fight, becomes the sixth southpaw heavyweight champion in boxing history and the second current American heavyweight titlist.
Глазков (21-1-1, 13 КО) slipped early in the third and seemed uneasy when he returned to his feet. The previously undefeated Ukrainian continued fighting, but he fell to the canvas again while throwing a punch. Replays confirmed that the right knee injury was a slip and wasn’t the result of a connected shot from Martin. Після бою, ringside doctor Gerard Verlotta confirmed to SHOWTIME Sports reporter Jim Gray that the injury was a torn right ACL.
“I still wanted to fight,” Martin said. “Ми тренувалися на 12 rounds and we were going to get stronger as the rounds went on. He just kind of twisted his ankle, it looked like. But every time I hit him in the body and his legs were flying. It’s boxing,. That was a football injury. I’m sorry for him. It’s unfortunate he couldn’t continue the fight.
“I want to unify the titles. We didn’t even fight сьогодні ввечері. I want another fighter. I want Tyson Fury.”
A dejected Glazkov pleaded his case for a rematch while being inspected by doctors in his locker room.
“This should have been my belt,” Glazkov said. “I already had him figured out. I slipped and felt a sharp pain in my right knee and felt it give it out. I’m very upset. I want a rematch when I recover.”

В не-телевізійному дії, Брукліна Адам Kownacki (13-0, 10 КО) thrilled the hometown crowd with an exciting and dominant victory over Денні Келлі (9-2-1, 8 КО). The Polish-born fighter used precise hooks and devastating uppercuts to earn the unanimous decision by scores of 80-72 в два рази і 79-73.
Undefeated Notre Dame alum Майк Лі (16-0, 10 КО) was sharp in his cruiserweight outing as he stopped Joseph Gardner (11-9-1, 1 KO) 43 секунд в три тури. Lee dropped his opponent twice in round three before finishing the bout in round four.
Іван Голуб (10-0, 8 КО) blasted out Хуан Родрігес (12-4, 5 КО) and scored a TKO victory in the first round. The Ukranian-born fighter now training out of Brooklyn delivered an enormous overhand right that sent Rodriguez down and prompted the referee to stop the fight 2:41 в раунді.
Undefeated Polish middleweight Мацей Sulecki (22-0, 7 КО) dominated veteran
Деррік Фіндлі (22-18-1, 14 КО) to remain perfect via a stoppage 1:29 в сьомому раунді. In a fun battle of unbeaten prospects Botisher Obidov (4-0-1, 1 KO) eked out a narrow unanimous decision over Ramil Gadzhiev (1-1, 1 KO) with all three judges scoring the fight 39-37.
Light heavyweight prospect Карлос Гонгора (4-0, 3 КО) scored three knockdowns before eventually stopping Derrick Adkins (1-1-1, 1 KO) in round four. The final shot was a devastating body shot that ended the fight 1:58 в раунді.
Брукліна Julian Sosa (4-0-1, 2 КО) thrilled his many fans in attendance with a dominant performance on his way to stopping Bryan Timmons (3-7, 3 КО) на 1:48 into the second round.

Breazeale тренувався в тренажерному залі The Rock в Карсоні, Каліфорнія з Менні Роблесом. Ось що Брізлі сказав про Мансура, тренувальний табір, у важкій вазі та багато іншого:
ДОМІНІК BREAZEALE
“Не важко було перефокусуватись після того, як випав бій Чарльза Мартіна. Я взяв пару вихідних, а потім знову опинився у спортзалі в понеділок.
“Мене не турбує боротьба з півзубою. У мене було достатньо часу, щоб влаштуватися з ігровим планом проти півкулі.
“Я щойно провів тиждень спарингу в Сан-Франциско з Лероном Мітчеллом. Це того варте. Він лівша, така ж побудова, як і Мансур. Це було ідеально.
“Я бачив пару боїв Мансура, особливо бій Джеральда Вашингтона, і я знаю, що він хоче потрапити всередину. Мені потрібно, щоб він поважав мою дистанцію та дальність. Вашингтон був високим, як я, тому вчитися добре.
“Мій час гри у захисника в коледжі мені дуже допоміг. Робота ніг дуже схожа. Кидання футбольних м’ячів і кидання ударів не так вже й різні.
“Я хотів би, щоб Шарль Мартін переміг В’ячеслава Глазкова, і тоді, сподіваюся, я зможу з ним боротися. Глазков був олімпійцем і мав великий досвід. Я вірю, якщо Глазков переможе, це буде вражаюче. Я не впевнений, що Мартін має достатньо таланту, щоб бути на рингу з Глазковим.
“Деонтей Уайлдер дуже добре володіє своїм асортиментом. Я вірю в нього, і не думаю, що Артур Шпілка зможе проникнути всередину. Я вибираю Деонтея.
“Мій бій точно буде насиченим. У мене є можливість нокаутувати Мансура, і я шукаю нокауту в середніх раундах. Це, безумовно, буде дуже насиченим.”

Васкес тренувався у тренажерному залі потрійної загрози в Колорадо-Спрінгс. Ось що Васкес мав сказати про тренування, його U.S. Армійська служба, Арон Мартінес та інші:
Семмі Васкес
“Мені подобається тренуватися в Колорадо. Тут я живу зараз, і висота робить моє тренування ще кращим. Чим довше я залишаюся тут, чим більше переваг я отримую.
“Я дуже радий битися на західному узбережжі. Я люблю битися тут. Я захоплюючий боєць і воюю з місцевим хлопцем. Сподіваюся, я зможу перемогти і почати будувати своїх власних вболівальників у Л.А..
“Арон Мартінес збирається виступити. Він засовує голову у ваші груди і намагається вас зносити. Вся справа в атаці на тіло. Якщо він хоче бути биком, Я буду матадором.
“Ми знаємо його ігровий план, тому готуємось дуже добре. Якщо він спробує боксувати мене, Я буду виходити з нього весь день.
“Ми будемо приймати це по одному бою за раз. Конкуренція за титул чемпіона світу - це те, чого ми хочемо. Усі найкращі хлопці - у напівсередній вазі.
“Де я зараз, Я на порозі переїзду до великих собак у дивізії. Я хочу битися з тими хлопцями. Я відчуваю, що готовий піти. У цьому дивізіоні ви повинні брати по одному бою за раз. Вся справа в тому, щоб вибити ім’я, щоб отримати ім’я.
“Я намагаюся використовувати бокс, щоб дістати що-небудь про військові, що тільки можу. Мене двічі застосовували і діагностували ПТСР (Посттравматичний стресовий розлад). ПТСР та ЧМТ (Травматична травма мозку) дуже серйозні речі. Мені пощастило опинитися там, де я зараз. Я хочу ще більше висунути це слово. Це дуже серйозно, але мені пощастило бути в змозі поширити цю інформацію.
“Я думаю, я збираюся його зупинити. Між шостим і восьмим туром. Ми збираємось зустрітися в середині рингу. Я отримав більше влади, ніж він звик. Всі виходять вперед, поки не отримують удару по обличчю.”

An excellent boxer-puncher and tactician that likes to counter, Lopez won his ShoBox debut in his outing before last with a close, hard-fought 10-round majority decision over previously undefeated, DominicanЕліезер Акіно (17-0-1 збирається в). Lopez is coming off a second-round TKO over Ерік Айкен останній Грудня. 12.

 

Lopez was born in Phoenix, raised in Los Angeles and moved to San Antonio when he was 15. Він пішов 125-23 in the amateurs and won six national championships before turning pro in February 2012. He’s trained by former two-time world champion Карлос "Famoso" Ернандес.

 

Munoz will be making his United States debut and first start outside of Mexico. A pro since September 2010, he’s known for his come-forward style, first-rate overall skills and proficient punching power. Він пішов 140-10 в любителях, winning three national Junior Olympic tournaments and coming away with bronze and silver medals in national championships.

 

Муньос, who hails from a fighting family, has an uncle who boxed professionally. He’s the one he credits for introducing him to boxing when he was 13. This will be his first fight since he scored a lopsided eight-round decision over Даніель Франко останній Травня 2.

 

Ellis upset highly regarded Террелл Gausha to win the 2010 Національні Золоті Рукавички (Gausha would go on to represent the U.S. на 2012 Олімпійські ігри). Since going pro in February 2011, Ellis has fought in two countries (Пуерто-Ріко, Мексика) and six U.S. cities (Сан - Антоніо, Carson, Каліфорнія., Winchester, Вірджинія., Нью-Йорк, Tulsa and Inglewood, Каліфорнія.). The 26-year-old has faced mostly modest opposition and has seldom come close to putting in a full night’s work.

 

Ellis had had a series of delays and restarts since turning pro but feels he’s grown from his mistakes and that he’ll be stronger because of them. For sure, his power hasn’t been affected. Всі 10 of his knockouts have come inside two rounds (eight in the first). The older brother of boxer Rashidi Ellis has won four straight by knockout, including a second-round TKO over Jas Phipps in his last start last Серпня. 29. But he seems to be taking a sizeable step-up in class here.

 

Odom is looking to turn it around after losing two of his last three, the most recent defeat coming via a shocking third-round TKO to Самуїл Кларксон (14-3 збирається в) на ShoBox. The heavily favored, heavy-hitting Odom was dropped three times, once in the second and twice in the third, before the fight was halted at 1:15.

У його ShoBox дебют, Одом, who makes for exciting scraps, dropped previously unbeaten Vilier Кіньонес (8-0) twice before stopping him in the seventh round on July 25, 2014.

 

Smith won his ShoBox debut in his last start on a hard-fought, eight-round unanimous decision over Бенджамін Уїтакер останній Листопад. 6 in an outdoor fight in Las Vegas. Fighting in memory of his mother who died in late September and going eight rounds for the first time, the 5-foot-7Smith, overcame a nasty cut over the left eye from an unintentional headbutt in the sixth, rallied to score a knockdown in the seventh and triumphed by the scores of 79-73 і 78-74 двічі.

 

Before turning pro in April 2010, Smith was a 2008 National Golden Gloves Featherweight Champion and 2007 Молодший Олімпійський Чемпіон. His 74-2 record in the amateurs included two victories overworld-ranked contender Амір я.

Romero had 268 amateur bouts and represented the Dominican Republic at the Olympics in 2012 (he lost to Vasyl Lomanchenko). Shortly thereafter he relocated to New York. He went pro in October 2013, fought four times in 2014 and five times last year.

 

A slick 5-foot-9 boxer who can punch and gives opponent issues because of his awkward style and movement, Ромеро, 24, has beat up on ordinary opposition and is coming off a first-round TKO over ЛуїсMeroles останній Грудня. 5. This looks to be his most daunting assignment to date.

 

Вільямс, 24, is a boxer-puncher who’s won seven in a row since boxing a draw in his second start in March 2013. This will be his first fight outside of New York. Making his eight-round debut in his last start onЖовтень. 8, he won a shutout decision over Czech Republic’s Michal Dufek.

 

Сприяти, 22, gets a quick-fix opportunity to redeem himself after losing hisShoBox debut on an eight-round unanimous decision to underdog Сем Seah (6-1) на Листопад. 6 card in Las Vegas.

 

A highly decorated amateur, the 5-foot-8½ inch Foster advanced to the 2012 U.S. Олімпійські ігри випробування, де він програв непереможним про перспективи, Йосип "Джо-Джо" Діас. До цього, Foster was a 2011 Х'юстон Золоті рукавички і 2010 PAL Чемпіон, a five-time Ringside National Champion and two-time National Junior Golden Gloves Champion.

Ось те, що учасники повинні були сказати, Четвер:
Deontay Уайлдером
“I’m so happy to be here in the ‘Big Apple.’ It’s been over 115 years since there’s been a heavyweight title fight in Brooklyn and you’ve invited your ‘country friend’ to end that streak.
“Everything has happened at the right time in my life. Even the people I’ve met in my career have come at the right time. I still think about the first time I met Lennox Lewis and he took the time out to talk to me and he showed me different techniques. I’ll never forget.
“Lennox was one of those guys that set the standard. He’s a hard act to follow. But I love a challenge. Everybody has had struggles coming up. Now my children are my motivation and that’s what has made me strong physically and mentally.
“Here we are in 2016, with a young champion trying to follow in the footsteps of a great champion to become undisputed heavyweight champion of the world.
“People who know me know that if I say I’m going to do something, I’m doing it. I am hungry. I am determined. I’m not playing with anybody in 2016. I don’t say things just to sound good. My actions will speak for themselves.
“This is a great card. Two heavyweight title fights in one night. It doesn’t get much better than that. The heavyweight division is exciting again. Having someone like me, it’s only going to get better.
“I take pride in what I do and what I have. I’m very honored to have the WBC belt. I even have the belt tattooed on my body. It’s not going anywhere. But there are more belts that I want. It’s going to be a long journey and a tough path to fulfill. But I’m that man.
“When people say the heavyweight champion of the world, I want one person to be recognized. I wish my opponent and all future opponents good luck, cause they’re going to need it.
“We’re not looking past Artur Szpilka. Things happen due to adrenaline and excitement, but I’m very confident about what I’m going to do в суботу ніч. He wants to be the first Polish heavyweight champion of the world. You know he’s coming to make history.
“This is going to be a hard fight, but a fun fight. Everyone who sees this fight, they’re going to get their money’s worth. Це буде велике шоу. Я не можу чекати. Waiting is the hardest part of boxing.”
АРТУР PIN-
“I’m so happy to fight in front of so many great Polish fans. I want to be the first Polish heavyweight champion of the world. I want to do it.
“Там немає тиску на мене. The pressure is on Deontay because I just want to be a world champion, він уже.
“I’m not just here to get my paycheck. Everyone who knows me, knows I come to fight. I don’t just want to win; I want to win in spectacular fashion.
“I have a bunch of friends coming in from Chicago but the next 48 hours will be mostly relaxing. I have a couple small training sessions with Ronnie (Щити) but that’s it.
“I know you have to have a great respect for your opponent and I used to have respect for him. But after what he has said about me, I have a problem. You have to prove it in the ring. He has to do it in the ring, not outside the ring. He can say whatever he wants, but we will see it in the ring.
“I will fight hard and after the fight you will hear ‘The New Heavyweight Champion of the World.’ “
Чарльз Мартін
“I’m so thankful to be in this position. Everyone who put this together and got me here, I owe them everything. I want to thank my mom for making me a strong guy. We went through everything together. We’ve seen it all.
“It’s starting to get real. I can feel my aggression coming out. I’m a Taurus, I’m a bull. I get mean when it’s time to fight. That’s what I want to bring into the ring в суботу ніч. Controlled aggression.
“I’m a nice person but when it’s time to go, I have an angry heart.
“I train for every fight like a title fight. Mentally there was nothing to gear up for. I’m strong mentally. I’ve been running up in the mountains and doing a lot of rounds.
“We’re in great shape after being in one camp for eight weeks and then taking a week off before we got back to it. It was a great training camp.
“I’m happy and excited. Я з нетерпінням чекаю цього бою в суботу and taking what’s mine.
“I’m so sick of talking about what Glazkov does well, I just want to see if he can do it well against me.”
VYACHESLAV GLAZKOV
“Thank you everyone who supports me and loves boxing. Це велика можливість для мене. Я 100 відсотків готовий. This will be a good fight and I hope everyone is watching.
“Я почуваю себе добре. I’ve trained very hard. Я дуже готовий до цього бою. Everything is in place for me to become world champion.
“Charles is a big guy. He’s a lefty but he hasn’t fought good opponents. He’s a big strong guy, but it’s the heavyweight division. Everyone is strong. This will be a good fight.
“All of my past fights have helped me get ready for this one. I want all of the belts. This is the first step towards my dream.”
Леннокс Льюїс, Former Unified Heavyweight World Champion
“I’m looking forward to the fights Субота. There are four great heavyweights that I’m excited to see. I’m happy that my WBC belt is looked after so well.
“The heavyweight division is wide open right now. Now it’s time for the guys who were standing by the wayside to show that they want to be the next undisputed champion.”
Лу Дібелла, Президент Дібелла Entertainment
“This is going to be a huge event at Barclays Center в суботу ніч. There are still some tickets available, but you better run and get them. We just opened up some more tickets today. We could have a record crowd for boxing at Barclays Center and that’s the power of the heavyweight division and the power of boxing when you deliver a great product to people.
“There are two terrific fights in one night. They will be the first heavyweight title fights in Brooklyn in 115 роки. We knew we were going to have Deontay Wilder taking on Artur Szpilka. We didn’t initially expect it, but now we have a title fight for a vacant belt as a co-feature. It really makes it a special night.”
Стівен Еспіноза, Виконавчий віце-президент & Головний Керуючий, Showtime спорту®
“SHOWTIME Sports was born on March 10, 1986 with its first telecast of a sporting event, which happened to feature a spectacular 11ї-round knockout by “Чудесний” Марвін Хаглер. This is SHOWTIME’s 30їanniversary and we’ll be celebrating all year long.
“In keeping with our heavyweight theme, we are featuring our long history with Evander Holyfield and airing some of his biggest fights. Holyfield has fought with us 18 раз, the most of any other fighter. If there is a current fighter who can break that record, it’s Deontay Wilder. He’s fought eight times and we’ve seen the progression of his skills.
“I can’t think of a better way to kick off our year than with this doubleheader of heavyweight title fights. For each of these four fighters on this SHOWTIME card, Субота night represents a lifetime of work and their dream of being heavyweight champion. I’m convinced we’re going to have two memorable fights that will add to the great history of SHOWTIME.
“We have such confidence in this card we’re doing something unprecedented. Not only is it a part of our Free Preview Weekend, but we’re putting the entire telecast on the SHOWTIME Sports YouTube Channel. There’s no excuse for anyone to miss it.”
Бретт Yormark, Генеральний директор Barclays Center
“Barclays Center is in the big event business and it doesn’t get any bigger than hosting two heavyweight world championship fights Субота ніч. Brooklyn has a great history with heavyweights but it’s been a long time. Deontay is the perfect person to bring this tradition back to Brooklyn. Він упевнений,, tenacious and has a big personality. He’s made to fight in Brooklyn.
“Wilder versus Artur Szpilka is the matchup Brooklyn has been waiting for. The Fort Greene section of Brooklyn has a tremendous Polish population and Artur will have a big rooting section в суботу ніч.
“This will be our sixteenth event and I expect 2016 to be our biggest year ever. This is certainly an exciting way to kick off boxing at Barclays for 2016.”
