CLARESSA ŠTÍTY

This has been long overdue. I’m just glad that Hammer is here and the fight is set. She’s been at my fights before but I can’t wait to get inside the ring and show her I’m the real champion.

I’ve traveled to many different countries and dethroned champions around the world. Koniec koncov, I’m coming to fight and I recognize that she’s a great champion. To be a champion for all those years shows that she’s a good fighter. But I also look at resumes, and her resume is not as good as mine.

I’m not someone coming to lay down. I’m not afraid of her. You don’t win belts by talking. You have to fight. I said two years ago I want to fight Christina Hammer in my seventh fight. It would have been if it weren’t for her medical issue. But now we’re here and ready for April 13.

“Apríl 13 you’re going to see someone fold. Sľubujem vám, it will not be me. Make sure you all tune-in.

I think for women’s boxing this is a true super fight that we’ve never gotten before. We’ve never had a fight like this in women’s boxing. It’s great to make this happen and us being from two parts of the world makes this fight even better.

She’s not the tallest girl I’ve ever fought. I’m stronger than her and I know it. I got up from a knockdown and won. She can’t do that. I don’t believe she knows how to fight on the inside, but she better learn.

I want to make her quit. I don’t want her to just know I’m a good fighter, I want her to know I’m great. I wish we could go 12 kolesá, but I’ll be prepared for all 10 rounds.

CHRISTINA HAMMER

I’m very glad to be here and make this fight happen. I’m looking forward to April 13. I want to show the world who I am.

This is a big risk to come from Germany to the U.S., but I believe the best should fight the best and I did what I had to so that this could happen. This fight can be a game changer for our sport.

I will give everything to step out of the ring as a winner. I know Claressa Shields is also a great champion. She’s undefeated like me and that’s why people want to see the fight and that’s why we made it happen.

I want to thank everyone who made this fight a reality and brought us to this stage. It’s huge for me to be here in New York and I am looking to win on April 13.

This fight is the real deal. This is going to be a game changer for women’s boxing. I think we’re going to inspire a lot of female athletes who want to live their dream. It’s motivation for everyone.

I’ve had the title for a long time. I always push myself. This is the fight I wanted to show everyone who is the best. I will be the undisputed champion.

Shields is beatable. Hanna Gabriels caught her in the first round of their fight and I am taller and stronger than Gabriels. I want to finish the job if I get the chance.

Anything can happen in boxing. I’m prepared to go the distance. Knockout is the goal but most importantly, I want to win.

DMITRIY SALITA, President of Salita Promotions

I’m honored to bring to the fans the first super fight in women’s boxing history. A lot of questions surround this fight. Will this be a classic like Leonard vs. Hearns, where the gold medalist handles the experienced pro, or like Mosley vs. De La Hoya, where the boxing pro took the gold medalist down. This fight is going to be for all of the belts and this recognizes the true value and impact of this fight.

Christina Hammer has been a world champion for over nine years and has won titles in two divisions. She’s charismatic and a superstar in Germany and Europe. As a champion that she is, she’s traveling to the other side of the world to prove that she’s the best.

Claressa made the Olympic team when she was 17 rokov, winning our only boxing medal at the 2012 Olympijské hry. She’s the only boxer in U.S. history to win two Olympic gold medals in boxing. She’s had a very impressive pro career, beating world champions and top contenders in all her fights. She’s on her journey to be the best and this fight is a big step toward cementing herself as the GWOAT (greatest woman of all time).

This is going to be a historic night of boxing. If you watch this fight live and in-person, you will want to hold onto your ticket as a memento.

MARK Taffeta, Claressa Shields’ manažér

The media support for this fight is outstanding. This is a very special time. This fight is one of the most significant fights I’ve worked on in my career, because of the place it will hold in history.

Two years ago I met Claressa Shields and we discussed her turning pro. We made a list of dreams and I promised Claressa I would do everything in my power to fulfill every one of them. We’ve had a wonderful journey together. One of those dreams was to make this undisputed championship fight happen. We’re going to keep making dreams happen.

TOM LOEFFLER, Christina Hammer’s Advisor

Without the fighters wanting this fight, events like this wouldn’t happen. Christina Hammer wants this challenge and she wants to prove she’s the best middleweight champion out there.

These two fighters can be an example for a lot of male boxers. These are two undefeated fighters in their prime putting it all on the line to show who is the best. You don’t see that very often these days.

This is going to be a fun promotion. This is a fight that’s a real 50-50 boj. Claressa will be coming forward with her style and tenacity, going up against Christina’s experience. It’s for all the marbles

STEPHEN Espinoza, President Sports & Programovanie Event, Showtime Networks Inc.

Let’s get one thing straight here. This isn’t just an important women’s fight. This isn’t just a high-quality women’s boxing match. This is a high-quality boxing match. This is an important fight. So certainly we have two very skilled women, we’re not going to ignore that fact. But this is one of the best fights that can be made in this sport. Two pound-for-pound boxers, najlepšie bojovať najlepšie. If you are not interested in this fight, then candidly, you are not a boxing fan. This is as good as this sport gets.

We at SHOWTIME have a long history showcasing the best in women’s boxing and MMA. Names like Laila Ali, Christy Martin, Ronda Rousey, Miesha Tate, Gina Carano, Cris Cyborg.; those are all fighters who made their debuts and that became stars on SHOWTIME. This has been a long-time commitment.

The first nationally televised women’s MMA event was on SHOWTIME. The first domestic televised MMA women’s main event was on SHOWTIME. The first women’s boxing match that was nationally televised was on SHOWTIME. The first women’s main event boxing bout was also on SHOWTIME, and that obviously was Claressa just a couple of years ago.

So here on this stage you’ve got two of the most elite athletes in the sport. Not two of the elite women’s fighters in the sport, but two of the elite athletes within this sport. Two-time gold medalist, the only American to do that consecutively, and a two-belt world champion versus a longtime middleweight champion who has dominated this division for nearly a decade.

This is one of the best fights that can be made in the entire sport. We have two of the elite athletes in boxing and they are deserving of having everything that comes with a marquee event on SHOWTIME, including our Emmy Award-winning All Access series.

JIM WYNKOOP, Generálny riaditeľ, Boardwalk Hall

We are so excited to have this great fight coming to Boardwalk Hall. It will be our first championship fight in several years and we can’t wait.

There is a huge history of boxing at Boardwalk hall in Atlantic City and we look forward to writing another chapter on April 13.

When Yomar fought the previously, we were not pleased, Yomar’s people made the decision for him to train with Iván Calderón so that he learned some techniques that Iván had already used very well. Iván is the architect of this and I recognize his work as a coach who charge of polishing this diamond. As a fighter, Iván made 18 world title defenses in the 105 a 108 pounds of the WBO and will be a safe bet for the Hall of Fame”, Varcárcel said.

An excited Álamo said: “I am very happy with this tribute. This fight was for my people of Aguas Buenas and Puerto Rico, who so need moments of happiness. Everything can be done in life, just set some goals and fight for them, no matter how strong the winds are. If you are at the hands of Jesus Christ, our savior, nothing will be missing and I know that many young people will achieve it”.

Álamo’s trainer Iván Calderón said: “I want to thank Ángel Cotto, who was the one who physically prepared Yomar Álamo for the fight and without that work, you can’t do what you did. Thanks to Efraín Román and Armando for giving me the confidence to join the team. The discipline that Yomar had to represent Aguas Buenas with a lot of pride, knowing that his people are behind him, motivated him a lot”.

From the Cagüitas neighborhood, we have a young man who, since he was a child, trained in the municipal gym of Aguas Buenas with Efraín Román and his father Armando Álamo. His dedication is remarkable throughout the town. Always running at 4:00 in the morning and that fills us with pride. His title is well deserved and thanks to the WBO for this great activity”, said the Aguas Buenas mayor Javier García Pérez, who was joined by the representative Jorge Navarro, on behalf of the House of Representatives of Puerto Rico.

JUNIOR MIDDLEWEIGHT CONTENDER, GREG VENDETTI RETURNS MARCH 29TH IN HOMECOMING MURPHYS BOXING EVENT


JR. MIDDLEWEIGHT CONTENDER, GREG VENDETTI TO FACE
MANNY WOODS IN HEADLINING HOMETOWN AREA SHOW


RYAN KIELCZWESKI RETURNS IN CO-MAIN EVENT


UNDEFEATED WELTERWEIGHT, MIKE OHAN JR. TO APPEAR


Piatok, MARCH 29TH AT MEMORIAL HALL
IN MELROSE, MASSACHUSETTS


TICKETS ON SALE NOW AT WWW.MURPHYSBOXING.COM



Boston, Massachusetts (Február 26, 2019):


Murphys Boxing is proud to announce the return of junior middleweight contender and fan favorite, Greg Vendetti (20-3-1, 12 KO) kto bude mať na Manny Woods (16-8-1, 6 KO) v piatok, March 29th at Memorial Hall v Melrose, Massachusetts v 10 round bout.


Vendetti, who last summer pulled off a massive upset against former world title challenger,Yoshihiro Kamegai na ESPN2, found himself in the Top 10 rankings and was offered the chance to fight France’s Michel Soro pre WBA Interim Super Welterweight Championship in Paris this past December.


‘The Villain’, who was on an incredible 16 fight winning streak, came up short in his first shot at a title but is looking to get back in the winning column in front of his hometown fans at Memorial Hall in a tough match up against upset specialist, Manny Woods.


Despite the loss, 2018 was an amazing year for me. Bojoval som 5 times and I had the biggest win of my career as a B-side against Kamegai which landed me in the Top 10. We were offered the Soro fight for the Interim world title and even though I felt like my body needed some time off, you can’t say no to that kind of opportunity. You never know when or if it will come again.”, explains the Stoneham, Massachusetts native.


It was a rough camp. I trained too hard. My body was falling apart. As for the fight, it was an ugly knockout but that’s part of the game. I’m proud of how I handled it. No shame. No embarrassment. I wasn’t phased by it. Of course I wasn’t happy about it but my first thought was what do we do to get better? The fight showed me I have to get sharper. Continue to be aggressive but be smarter and more tactical about it. It was only one battle in a long war.


As for taking on a seasoned veteran like Woods when he could have easily asked for a tune up, Vendetti shows the attitude that has made him such a fan favorite.


I like to fight and wanted to be in a real fight in my return. Knocking out a ham and egger in the first round isn’t enjoyable for me or the fans. It’s a waste of a camp and a weight cut not to mention you don’t learn anything. Woods is a durable, legit guy who is coming to win. That’s what I need and want.


And after going 50/50 against against world class opposition last year, would Vendetti be willing to take on a top 10 fighter again in 2019?


“100%. I want to make a statement against Woods then keep improving with each fight. I don’t want to take any steps back with the opposition. Everything forward. As long as I’m healthy, I will fight anyone in the division.


V čo-hlavné udalosti, fellow Murphys Boxing stablemate and Massachusetts fan favorite, Ryan Kielczweski (29-4, 11 KO) will take on an opponent to be named in an 8 round contest in the lightweight division.


‘The Polish Princeis coming off his show stealing back and forth battle with Tommy Coyle at TD Garden in Boston this past October on the undercard of the Demetrius Andrade WBO world middleweight title fight.


Despite dropping the decision, Kielczweski, who hails from Quincy, Massachusetts, showed world class talent and massive heart in an all out war that had the arena crowd on it’s feet.


Also featured on the card will be the most recent addition to Murphys Boxing’s growing roster, Mike Ohan Jr. (8-0, 5 KO).


The son of a popular New England area professional fighter in the 1990s, Ohan Jr. followed in his father’s footsteps going 82-10 in the amateurs and picking up multiple New England Golden Gloves tituly.


Fighting a remarkable 8 časy v 2 years and upping the competition level in each outing, including a unanimous decision over veteran, Daniel Sostre in his last fight, Ohan has been on the fast track as a professional. The impressive win lead to the young fighter, who hails from Holbrook, Massachusetts, being offered a contract with Murphys Boxing.


I am beyond excited to be a part of the Murphys Boxing family.”, says Ohan, Jr. who will fight an opponent to be named in a 6 round bout on the card.


Being with such an active promotional company will give me the opportunity to grow as a fighter and showcase my skills as I move towards my dream of one day being a world champion.


In addition to the three headlining local favorites, the card will feature a 4 round super lightweight women’s bout between Jillian DiAuto (1-1, 1 KO) a Sarah Click (0-1-1), as well as the east coast debut of Venezuelan super lightweight sensation, Luis Arcon (5-0, 5 KO) who will take on an opponent to be named in a 6 round bout.


3 more undercard bouts will be announced shortly to kick off the night at the beloved throwback venue which has become a mainstay of Murphys Boxing.


Memorial Hall is my favorite fight venue.”, says Ken Casey, founder of Murphys Boxing.


It gets incredibly loud in there when Greg fights and with the bowl seating, it feels like a mini coliseum.


Vendetti, who will be making his 7th appearance at the always sold out venue, couldn’t agree more with his promoter.


It’s intense. I really do feel like a gladiator fighting in a coliseum when I’m at Memorial Hall and for a gladiator there’s only two optionsvictory or death.


Vendetti vs. Woods takes place on Saturday, March 29h at Memorial Hall in Melrose, Massachusetts (590 Main Street). Doors open at 7pm. Vstupenky sú už v predaji v: www.murphysboxing.com

MINNEAPOLIS (Február 24, 2019) – Anthony Dirrell (33-1-1, 24 KO) porazenýAvni Yildirim (21-2, 12 KO)by technical split decision (96-94 X 2 for Dirrell, 98-92 for Yildirim) for the vacant WBC Super Middleweight World Championship in the main event of Premier Boxing Champions on FS1 and FOX Deportes from the Armory in Minneapolis. Referee Mark Nelson stopped the contest in the tenth round due to an accidental clash of heads and a cut over Dirrell’s left eye with the decision going to the scorecards.

I was upset with the stoppage because I wanted finish the fight like a champion,” Said Dirrell. “It feels great getting my WBC belt back. We want to unify against Caleb Plant or any of the champions. I’m just going to go home, take some time, talk to my camp and then we’ll go from there. If the Benavidez fight comes calling then I’ll fight him.

I thought I was winning this fight by more than what the judges had,” added Dirrell. “I was jabbing him and he was applying some pressure, but that’s just what he does. I won the fight though and that’s all that matters.

Minneapolis-native Jamal James (25-1, 12 KO) scored a crowd-pleasing technical knockout win over Janer Gonzalez (19-2-1, 15 KO). Midway through the sixth stanza, James appeared to drop Gonzalez with a straight overhand right, but referee Gary Miezwa declared it a slippage. Near the end of the sixth round, James landed another knockdown and this time it counted and hurt Gonzalez. At the close of round six, Gonzalez went to his corner and never came out with the fight being declared a sixth-round stoppage as Gonzalez was unable to answer the bell for the seventh round.

This is the best crowd I’ve ever fought in front of,” said James. “We packed this place out. Middle of winter, snow all around us and they still came out and showed a lot of support. I can’t even explain the feeling to come out here and stop (Gonzalez). The only question I have is where’s my belt? I’m ranked third in the WBA. Keith Thurman got the belt, Pacquiao got the belt. But in all honesty, whoever gives me that opportunity I’m stepping in there with them.

He gave me a great fight, but at the end of the day I had too much to offer and he couldn’t get back up,” continued James. “I just kept my range and was able to counter on him. And when he was coming in he was coming in real wild and opening himself up for some big shots that I was able to take advantage of. The first time he went down I thought it was a legitimate knockdown, but the ref was a good ref. I definitely caught him with a good combination and a nasty body shot for the second knockdown. Po tom, I knew that took the rest of the fight out of him and all I had to do was finish the job.

I was thinking this was a very important fight for my career,” Said Gonzalez. “I was so happy for this fight, it just didn’t go my way. I am going to fight again, hoci. Every fight is a learning experience for me.

The FS1 and FOX Deportes opening bout featured a hard-fought rematch betweenJeison Rosario (18-1-1, 13 KO) a Marcos Hernandez (13-2-1, 3 KO). In February of 2018, the two fought to a draw. In the rematch, Rosario was able to secure a technical knockout with referee Celestino Ruiz halting the action 2:45 into the ninth frame. V čase do zastavenia, Hernandez was up on judge Kyle Shiely’s scorecard (77-75) with Rosario ahead on judges John Mariano’s and Tim Taggart’s scorecards (78-74, 77-75).

He let his guard down and he kept making the same mistakes,” said Rosario. “When I saw the opportunity, I dropped him.

The first time we fought I wasn’t ready,” added Rosario. “I was weak. But I learned from the first fight what to do in the second one. That’s how I took him out.

It was a close fight that could have went either way,” Said Hernandez. “He hit me with a good shot. I got up and felt O.K. I was just trying to dodge some shots and he hit me with a left. He was firing and I just should have thrown back.

I think the ref stopped the fight early, but that’s not my job,” continued Hernandez. “I’d definitely welcome a third fight with Rosario, hoci. I’ve never been afraid to fight anyone, so fighting him a third time wouldn’t be a problem at all.

In the Premier Boxing Champions on FS2 prelims, Bryant Perrella (16-2, 13 KO) won a unanimous decision (78-74, 79-73 X 2) cez Breidis Prescott (31-16, 22 KO).

I’m very happy with my performance tonight,” Said Perrella. “I felt great going the distance. My endurance was fantastic. I would have been much more aggressive and thrown harder shots, but I hurt my hand in the second round and it was hurting the rest of the fight. I just used my jab and ring generalship to control the fight and get the win.

The FS2 co-feature saw Money Powell IV (9-0, 5 KO) stop Javier Frazier (8-9-1, 4 KO) by third-round technical knockout (2:03). Powell landed 86 punches in the bout, 36 of which were to Frazier’s body.

This training camp we really worked on a lot of body shots,” said Powell. “I feel like body shots are neglected nowadays and body shots pay the bills, break you down real quick.

In the FS2 swing bout, Austin Dulay (13-1, 10 KO) scored a very quick first-round knockdown of Yardley Cruz (24-13, 14 KO) before cruising to a third-round stoppage (:27).

I just listened to my coaches and they told me to be a dog and come forward,” said Dulay. “I thought I had him stopped with that first knockdown after the opening bell, but I didn’t want to rush into anything because he has a ton of experience.

I want a rematch with Chris Colbert right away on the April 13 card here at the Armory,” added Dulay. “I got back in camp after that loss, figured out what was wrong, got a nutritionist and moved up to 135 libier. I feel better than ever, so I’m definitely ready for that rematch.

In the opening televised bout on FS2, Justin Pauldo (12-1, 6 KO) scored a first-round knockdown and stoppage (1:17) proti Federico Malespina (16-11-2, 2 KO) who was unable to continue.

I landed a solid straight right hand,” said Pauldo. “I saw him fall back into the ropes and I knew I had him hurt. Tak, I touched the body and got him out of there quickly.

LONDÝN - február 23, 2019 - Chris Eubank Jr. si vyslúžil víťazstvo v kariére tvrdým jednomyseľným rozhodnutím nad britským rivalom a bývalým dvojnásobným majstrom sveta Jamesom DeGaleom v sobotnej nevraživosti v zápase strednej váhy v SHOWTIME od londýnskeho The O2.



Eubank, syn britskej legendy v boxe a bývalý majster sveta v dvoch divíziách Chris Eubank st., na podlahe DeGale dvakrát na ceste k jasnému rozhodnutiu, , Ktorý bol hodnotený 114-112, 115-112, 117-109. VIDEO UDALOSTI: https://s.sho.com/2E6mWI8



Práca v jeho prvom zápase s trénerom na plný úväzok, Eubank viedol kontrolovaný boj. Bývalý vyzývateľ na titul majstra sveta položil DeGale v drsnej chvíli v druhej, omráčil svojho rivala veľkým ľavým hákom proti povrazom a o chvíľu neskôr ho podlomil silným pravým krížom, ktorý poslal DeGale na plátno len pre druhý boj v jeho kariére.



DeGale, , ktorý založil svoju majstrovskú kariéru ako uhladená južná labka, nebol schopný bodnúť na diaľku a nedokázal zvládnuť konštantný tlak z Eubank. Bývalý zlatý olympijský medailista sa uchýlil k výpadom zvonku a vo vnútri bol z veľkej časti neúčinný, často klinčovanie v tesnej blízkosti.



"Vedel som, že na mňa takto príde.",“Povedala Eubank. "Je to úhľadná južná labka.", ale môj herný plán fungoval. Chytrý tlak a príliš sa nedostávam pred seba. Je to pekelný bojovník, sakra konkurent, ale na konci dňa moja hlava a moje srdce tento boj vyhrali. “



"K tomuto boju viedlo veľa nepriateľstva.". Povedal som mu, „Toto je môj čas,' a bolo to. Je veteránom tejto hry, hodí veľké strely a podarí sa mu zostať hore. Vstať po týchto zrážkach je vyjadrením o jeho húževnatosti a type bojovníka, aký je. “



Druhé zrazenie prišlo v 10th keď Eubank pristál so silným ľavým hákom, ktorý DeGalea podlomil iba 30 sekúnd zostáva na bicykli. Opäť, DeGale sa pokúsil zaistiť, aby sa vyhol úderu, ale jeho ruka sa dotkla plátna a bolo ovládnuté len tretím zrazením jeho kariéry.



Po boji, DeGale, ktorý ako prvý britský bojovník získal zlatú olympijskú medailu a svetový šampionát, sa zdalo, že sa prikláňa k dôchodku.



"Rozhodne som neurobil dosť.",”Povedal DeGale. "Bol na tom a ja som neurobil dosť.". Musíte urobiť viac ako dosť, aby ste čelili niekomu, kto sa prihlásil ako Chris.



"Idem sa vrátiť a porozprávať sa so svojím tímom.", moja rodina, a rozhodnúť sa. Nechal som svoju stopu v boxe. Vyhral som olympijskú medailu, dva tituly majstra sveta a môže byť čas zavesiť to. “



Zatiaľ čo DeGale uvažuje o odchode do dôchodku, Eubank sa zameriava na ďalší pokus o titul majstra sveta.



"Toto bol najdôležitejší boj v mojej kariére.", a urobil som vyhlásenie. Som späť tam, kde som mal byť, na vrchole potravinového reťazca. Prichádzam pre všetky opasky v divízii strednej a super strednej váhy. Bojujem s každým, koho postavia predo mňa.



"Som rád, že tu môžem debutovať v Amerike v čase SHOWTIME.". Som rád, že ma takto môžem predstaviť americkej verejnosti - urobiť vyhlásenie. “



V úvodnom záchvate Showtime CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING doubleheader, neporazený hráč v ťažkej váhe Joe Joyce udržal svoj vyraďovací rekord nedotknutý so šiestym kolom TKO bývalého majstra sveta v ťažkej váhe Bermana Stiverna.



Po vzrušujúcom prvom kole, Joyce v druhom otvorila akciu obludnou pravou rukou a vyložená zo zvončeka na bezbranný Stiverne, ktorý pokračoval v úderoch napriek tomu, že jedol škodlivé výstrely. Po sérii komb v úvodnej minúte tretiny, Joyce chytila ​​Stiverna rovnou pravou rukou, aby ho po piatykrát v profesionálnej kariére poslal na plátno. Stiverne kolo prežil pri zahadzovaní opakovaných striel, ale nedokázal vrátiť zmysluplné údery.



Joyce, the 2016 Strieborný olympijský medailista, dôsledne nastavujte silný bojový zásah priamo za presným a efektívnym ľavým úderom počas celého boja. S Joyce (8-0, 8 KO) pokračovanie v odpaľovaní proti prevažne bezbrannému Stivernu, Rozhodca Howard Foster nastúpil, aby zastavil súťaž o 2:26 šiesteho. Stiverne (25-4-1, 21 KO) proti zastaveniu neprotestoval.



"Veľký rešpekt k Stivernovi - ako skutočný šampión.", je veľmi tvrdý a stále hádzal strely, ale myslím, že som bol len trochu príliš,“Povedala Joyce. "Išlo o trpezlivosť.". Je to taký tvrdý chlap, že tieto zábery neurobil bez problémov.



"Bil som ho so všetkým, čo som mal.", vrátane kuchynského drezu. Počúval som Ábela (Sanchez) v rohu, urobil všetko, čo povedal, a dopadlo to dobre. Môj úder bol skutočne efektívny. Som ostrieľaný veterinár. Vzal som svoj postoj a zostal som pri ceste pokojný.



"Veľké veci sa blížia.". Moja ďalšia bude pre WBA Regular (Názov) a čoskoro som späť v telocvični. Potrebujem ešte pár takýchto súbojov a potom budem pripravený na veľkých šampiónov. “



Najvýznamnejšie momenty debutu ľahkej váhy bývalého majstra sveta Lee Selbyho boli uvedené počas sobotňajšieho televízneho vysielania. Bývalý šampión v mušej váhe, Selby (27-2, 9 KO) prekonal náhodné zadok v druhom kole a získal jednomyseľné rozhodnutie v 12 kolách (116-112, 116-112, 115-114) nad Omarom Douglasom (19-3, 13 KO).

Tu bolo povedané, čo museli povedať bojovníci a ich príslušné tábory počas štvrtkovej tlačovej konferencie v Intercontinental v spoločnosti The O2:



JAMES DEGALE:

"Uvoľnil som svoj titul pre takéto boje.". Chris Eubank už dlhšie volá moje meno a nakoniec mám šancu udrieť mu päsťou do tváre.



"Nemám pred ním rešpekt.". Žiadne. Tento chlap je zriedený idiot. A v sobotu večer sa už neviem dočkať, kedy to s ním budem riešiť. Prídem mu to poriadne dať. Nemôže škatuľkovať. Všetci sme to už počuli.



"Toto je najväčší boj v jeho kariére.". Je čas odchodu do dôchodku. Kto tento boj prehrá, je hotový. Urobte alebo zomrite v sobotu ... Jeho boj o dôchodok je tu. Je to jeho posledný boj, Sľubujem vám, že.



"Som dokázaný.". Bol som tam, urobil. Vyhral som všetko. Nerobil nič. A idem ho do dôchodku.



"Eubank je tvrdý bojovník.", on je silný. Má veľa dobrých atribútov, ale som na neho príliš dobrý. Aby ste to premiešali a vyšli na samý vrchol, potrebujete viac ako silu a húževnatosť. Zakaždým, keď vystúpil, je stratený.



"Strach zo straty je ten, že viem, čo je na rade.". Toto je urob alebo zomri. Ak ho nemôžem poraziť, ak nemôžem poraziť Chrisa Eubanka ml., Skončil som.



"Mnoho ľudí si myslí, že som videl lepšie dni.". Mnoho ľudí si myslí, že som na ústupe. V minulosti som mal problémy, ale môžem úprimne povedať, že som úplne fit. Som v najlepšej forme, v ktorej som už dlho bol, dlhá doba, fyzicky aj psychicky. Keď mám pocit, že mám pocit, nikto ma nemôže poraziť.



"Ak nemôžem poraziť Chrisa, znamená to, že som zastrelený.", to znamená, že som za kopcom. “



CHRIS EUBANK JR.:

"Tento chlapík je zadok.". Hovorí dobrú hru. Bude to mať dobré, ale na konci dňa budem na neho príliš veľa.



"Obaja sme v štádiu, keď nemôžeme prehrať.". Obaja bojujeme za svoju kariéru. Vie, že ma nezvládne. Pýta sa sám seba, „Môžem prežiť?‘A odpoveď absolútne nie je.



"V tom krúžku nemôže robiť nič, čo by som nezvládol.". Idem mu boxovať hlavu.



"Teraz mám trénera na plný úväzok.". Prvýkrát v kariére, Denne mám trénera zameraného na stratégiu, ktorá ma pripraví na to, čo je James - uhladená južná labka. Preto som si taký istý. Ak chce kandidovať, máme gameplan. Ak chce stáť a hojdať sa, máme gameplan. Na všetko máme plán.



"Dôležité je, že Jamesova kariéra sa skončila za pár dní.". Poslal som mu správu potom, ako podľahol [George] Groves hovoril, že musí držať krok, pretože jedného dňa budeme bojovať. A teraz, keď sme konečne tu, sa mu pozriem do očí a nevidím sebavedomého chlapa.



"Je môj čas.". Očakávam to najlepšie, čo kedy bol, a to ešte nebude stačiť.



"Som bojovník na svetovej úrovni.". Každý v boxerskej hre to vie. Toto je moja príležitosť dokázať, že raz a navždy nastavím rekord a ukážem, že som skutočná dohoda. Viem, že ide o určujúci boj v mojej kariére. Urob to alebo zomri a ja som na to pripravený.



"James vie, čo príde.". Koniec koncov, jeho posledné vystúpenia neboli na úrovni, ale nemyslím si, že rešpektoval svoje [minulosť] oponenti. Rešpektuje ma, a rešpektujem ho, a preto je to skutočný boj.



"Som v hre už dlho, ale toto je pre mňa iba začiatok dlhej cesty.". Toto je môj najväčší boj. Musím vyhrať. Keby som vyhral, Som späť na svetovej scéne. Porážka Jamesa DeGaleho ma pripravuje o titul majstra sveta, čo je celý dôvod, prečo som v tejto hre začal. “





JIM MCDONNELL:

"Existujú rôzne úrovne boxu.". Chris mal dobrú perspektívu, ale nie je na takej úrovni ako James. Zistí, čo je potrebné na to, aby sa stal majstrom sveta. James DeGale je o úroveň vyššie ako Chris Jr..



"Chris môže mať všetku potrebnú energiu, ale nemá schopnosti poraziť Jamesa DeGaleho.".



"Viem, že James nestráca.". James DeGale je pravdepodobne najlepší britský bojovník, akého som vo svojej krajine videl. “





CHRIS EUBANK SR.:

"Videl som vrchol Jamesa a je to opojné.". S Chrisom, nebolo použité všetko, čo som povedal. Možno to bolo počuť, ale neaplikované. To, čo som povedal, funguje. Ja by som nemal 19 šampionát vyhrá, ak nie.



"Nie som o tom presvedčený." [Chris vyhrá] pretože James DeGale má rodokmeň. Byť [Olympijské] Zlatý medailista a bývalý majster sveta je skutočný. Rešpektujem schopnosti človeka. Junior nie.



"Môj syn sa pozerá na fyzickú stránku boxu a.", z fyzického hľadiska, Myslím si, že nie je nikto, kto by s ním vydržal. Ale box nie je iba fyzický - je to aj duchovný, a tam Juniorovi chýba. Neviem, či to má.



"Toto je 50/50 bojovať a prvýkrát som skamenený, aký môže byť výsledok. Som skamenený, že Junior nemusí tento boj vyhrať.



"Toto je múdrosť niekoho, kto tu bol.". Na základe minulých výkonov svojho súpera nikdy nepodceňujete. Každý, kto si myslí, že tento človek je na snímke kvôli minulým vystúpeniam, robí chybu.



"Z fyzického hľadiska.", Junior má navrch. Z duchovného a rodokmeňového hľadiska, James má navrch, a preto je to 50/50 boj.



"Viem, že sa Chris naučil, a pozrime sa, čo sa vyrába.". Môže to byť skvelý zápas. “





Paulie Malignaggi:

"Páčia sa mi naše šance.". Poznám toho chlapa, s ktorým som bol v tábore. Veci, ktoré som videl, mám rád. Tentokrát sú oveľa pozitívnejší.



"Nemôžeš podceniť chlapa ako Eubank.". Vždy príde vyhrať. Ale, bez ohľadu na gameplan, existuje určitá mentalita a môj chlap ju má. Je zlatým medailistom a vie, čo si má v sobotu priniesť.



„James získal dva významné svetové tituly, zlatú olympijskú medailu. Chris má za sebou niekoľko dobrých výhier, ale keď šiel na túto elitnú úroveň, on stratil. Chris je dobrý bojovník, ale túto úroveň odporu neprekonal. “
