The 27-year-old from Casa Grande, Arizona proved against James that he’s a formidable opponent for anyone in the 147-pound division.

Santana (25-6-1, 12 KOs) needs an impressive victory over Ramos to remain a force in the welterweight division. The 31-year-old Santana of Santa Barbara, California is coming off a majority decision over the always-tough Felix Diaz and owns victories over then unbeaten fighters Eddie Gomez and Kendal Mena.

Η εκδήλωση περιλάμβανε επίσης μια εμφάνιση από τον πρώην παγκόσμιο πρωταθλητή και της Νότιας Καλιφόρνιας ανεμιστήρα αγαπημένο Φερνάντο Βάργκας. Εδώ είναι που οι συμμετέχοντες συνέντευξη Τύπου είχε να πει Πέμπτη από το Conga Room:

**LEO Σάντα Κρουζ**

“Ήμασταν ετοιμάζεται για Miguel Flores, αλλά στο γυμναστήριο θα πρέπει πάντα να είναι έτοιμη για κάθε είδους στυλ. Είχαμε ήδη εργάζονται με φιλικό αγώνα συνεργάτες που συμπλοκή, και αυτό είναι που περιμένουμε από Rafael Rivera.

“Ήξερα αμέσως ότι Ριβέρα ήταν ένας καλός αντίπαλος. Είναι νέος και πεινασμένοι και αυτό τον κάνει επικίνδυνο. Αυτός μπορεί να πάρει γροθιές, έτσι είμαστε έτοιμοι για 12 γύρους. Εμείς πάμε για να είναι έξυπνος σε αυτόν τον αγώνα, γιατί ξέρουμε τι μπορεί να κάνει Rivera.

“Βλέποντας τον μπαμπά μου να περάσει από τη θεραπεία του καρκίνου ήταν πολύ δύσκολο. Μου δίνει το κίνητρο να πάει στο γυμναστήριο και να προπονούνται σκληρά, γιατί ξέρω αν βλέπει μου εργάζεται σκληρά, θα τον παρακινήσει, καθώς και.

“Είμαι ακριβώς θέλει να πάει εκεί έξω, δίνουν μια μεγάλη μάχη και να βοηθήσει το όνομά μου συνεχίσει να αυξάνεται έτσι ώστε να μπορεί να αγωνιστεί ο καλύτερος.

“Αγαπώ την καταπολέμηση και την εκπαίδευση εδώ στο Λος Άντζελες. Μου δίνει την ευκαιρία να είμαι με την οικογένειά μου περισσότερα. Όταν τους έχουμε εδώ, αυτό με κάνει να προπονούμαι πιο σκληρά. Κάνω όλα αυτά για αυτούς και το μέλλον τους.

“Αν μπορώ να πάρω τη νίκη, θέλουμε να ενοποιήσει τις ζώνες ή να κάνετε το τρίτο αγώνα εναντίον Carl Frampton. Εάν δεν, θα πάμε στο 130 λίρες και να αναζητήσουν έναν τίτλο σε μια νέα κατηγορία βάρους.”

**RAFAEL RIVERA**

“Έχω ενισχυθεί στα τέλη του πριν από ένα μεγάλο αγώνα. Είμαι πάντα έτοιμος όταν πρόκειται. Αναμείνετε μια έκπληξη να έρθει το βράδυ του Σαββάτου.

“Ξέρω ότι έχω ό, τι χρειάζεται για να φέρει αυτό πίσω τον τίτλο στην Τιχουάνα. Έχουμε εκπαιδευτεί σκληρά και είχε αυτές τις τελευταίες τέσσερις εβδομάδες για να επικεντρωθεί σε σχετικά με το σπάσιμο Leo κάτω.

“Είμαι έτοιμος για οτιδήποτε Λέοντα φέρνει στο δαχτυλίδι. Ο καθένας ξέρει ότι είναι πολύ σκληρή και ρίχνει πολλές διατρήσεις, αλλά πιστεύω ότι είμαι ο πιο γρήγορα μαχητής και μπορώ να τον βλάψουν με μετρητές.

“Αυτή είναι η καλύτερη ευκαιρία που είχα, ανεβαίνει κατά ένα μεγάλο πρωταθλητή όπως ο Λέων. Είμαι έτοιμος για τον αγώνα και μια μεγάλη επίδειξη για τους οπαδούς.”

**OMAR FIGUEROA**

“Δεδομένου στυλ μας, δεν υπάρχει κανένας τρόπος με τον οποίο πρόκειται να πάει η απόσταση. Νομίζω ότι αυτό θα είναι μια πρόωρη νύχτα και είμαι προγραμματίζετε στην κατοχή σήκωσε το χέρι μου.

“Η προσωρινή απόλυση δεν με επηρεάζει κατά τον Robert Guerrero, οπότε δεν βλέπω γιατί θα με επηρεάσει τώρα. Αυτός είναι ο λόγος για τον οποίο κρατώ το στυλ μου συνεπή. Η μόνη διαφορά είναι το χαρακτήρα απέναντι από μένα στο ρινγκ. Αυτός ο αγώνας θα εξαρτηθεί από το πώς ο John θέλει να πάει, γιατί έρχομαι για την καταπολέμηση της.

“Είμαι ακριβώς θέλει να πάρει στο δαχτυλίδι και να επωφεληθούν από αυτήν την ευκαιρία που μου έχουν δώσει. Έχω κάνει τις αλλαγές που έχουν κάνει όλο το παιχνίδι μου τόσο πολύ ευκολότερη. Είναι μια εντελώς διαφορετική νοοτροπία που έχω τώρα.

“Κατάρτιση στρατόπεδο πήγε πολύ καλά. Έχω κάνει πολλές αλλαγές στον τρόπο ζωής μου και είμαι αφιερωμένη 100 τοις εκατό στην πυγμαχία. Τα πράγματα δεν ήταν καλύτερα.”

**John Molina JR.**

“Ήρθε η ώρα για την καταπολέμηση της. Η σκληρή δουλειά γίνεται και η ώρα είναι τώρα. Talk είναι φθηνά. Το βράδυ του Σαββάτου, θα πιάσουμε.

“Έχω πάει προς αυτή την κατεύθυνση πριν. Ποτέ δεν δόθηκε υψηλές προσδοκίες. Δεν υπάρχει καμία πίεση εδώ. Νομίζω ότι το στυλ του Ομάρ θα φιλοξενήσει το δικό μου και να κάνουν έναν αγώνα διασκέδαση για τους οπαδούς.

“Κάθε φορά που παλεύω, πρόκειται να είναι συναρπαστικό. Μπορείτε να πείτε το ίδιο πράγμα για Omar. Είμαι έτοιμος για κάθε έκδοση του Omar. Ακριβώς όπως και κάθε άλλο αγώνα. Δεν μπορώ να περιμένω μέχρι το Σάββατο το βράδυ για να φτάσετε εκεί και να κάνω αυτό που κάνω καλύτερα.

“Έχω βάλει τα πάντα σε αυτό το στρατόπεδο, όπως είμαι βέβαιος ότι ο αντίπαλός μου έχει. Γι 'αυτό οφείλουμε να τους οπαδούς και πρόκειται να αποδώσει καρπούς το βράδυ του Σαββάτου.”

**SEBASTIAN Φουντόρα**

“Περιμένω μια καλή μάχη. Είναι ένας αήττητος μαχητής και ελπίζω να δώσει στους οπαδούς μια μεγάλη επίδειξη και τα πόδια νικηφόρα.

“Είμαστε απολύτως αφοσιωμένος σε αυτόν τον αγώνα. Απλά προπονούνται και όλα τα άλλα είναι έξω από το δρόμο. Έχω εκπαιδευτεί σκληρά και θα πάω να κάνω το πράγμα μου αρέσει πάντα.

“Είμαι εξακολουθεί να αυξάνεται ως μαχητής. Είμαστε όλο και καλύτερα με κάθε στρατόπεδο και κάθε αγώνα. Είναι καλό ότι έχουμε κρατήσει την ποιότητα μάχες αντιπάλων, επειδή βοηθά να επιταχύνει αυτή τη διαδικασία.

“Ας ελπίσουμε ότι θα πάμε για να εμφανιστεί πολύ πιο πυγμαχία και την τεχνική σε αυτό τον αγώνα. Νομίζω ότι Μάρσαλ πρόκειται να έρθει μέσα και επιτίθενται στον οργανισμό. Νομίζω ότι αν είμαι σε θέση να τον σταματήσει, θα είναι από τις πυγμαχικές ικανότητες που μου δείχνουν.”

**Donnie MARSHALL**

“Είμαι έτοιμος να κυριαρχήσει τον αγώνα, όπως κάνω πάντα. Αυτό είναι το μόνο πράγμα στο μυαλό μου. Δεν με νοιάζει για το ύψος του, εγγραφή ή οτιδήποτε άλλο. Έρχομαι για να κυριαρχήσουν.

“Δεν έχω δει ποτέ ασχολούνται με το ύψος των Φουντόρα. Εμείς πυγμάχησε με μερικές καλές ισχυρή southpaws στη Φλόριντα, συμπεριλαμβανομένων Yamaguchi Falcao. Στη συνέχεια πήγαμε στο Λας Βέγκας για το δεύτερο εξάμηνο του στρατοπέδου εκπαίδευσης και εργάστηκε με κάποιες κορυφαίες προοπτικές. Είμαι περισσότερο από έτοιμοι για τίποτα.

“Κάθε αγώνας είναι μια μάρκα ή διακοπή αγώνα. Έχω εκπαιδευτεί κατά κορυφαίους μαχητές και ήταν σε όλη τη χώρα σε διάφορα γυμναστήρια. Έχω μόνο pro δυόμισι χρόνια. Είμαι ένας νεαρός 30. Πάω να ανακοινώσει ο ίδιος το Σάββατο σε ένα μεγάλο δρόμο.”

**Richard Schaefer, Πρόεδρος και Διευθύνων Σύμβουλος της Ringstar Αθλητισμός**

“Αυτό το Σαββατοκύριακο είναι άλλο ένα παράδειγμα γιατί το Λος Άντζελες είναι όπως μια πόλη μεγάλη μάχη. Εμείς πάμε για να έχουμε μια φανταστική πλήθος στο Microsoft Θέατρο στο L.A. Ζωντανά το βράδυ του Σαββάτου. Νομίζω ότι μιλά για τη δύναμη αυτής της πόλης ως πόλη μποξ, και η δύναμη αυτής της κάρτας. Αυτό είναι πάνω προς τα κάτω μία από τις καλύτερες κάρτες μπορώ να θυμηθώ εδώ στο Λος Άντζελες.

“Η tripleheader στο FOX και FOX Deportes έχει τρεις αγώνες που θέλουν να κλέψουν τη νύχτα. Θα δείτε ποια αγώνα και που ο καθένας μαχητής θα πρέπει να μιλάμε για μετά το Σάββατο. Υπάρχουν σίγουρα κάποιες μάχες σε αυτήν την κάρτα που έχει «Καταπολέμηση της Χρονιάς’ γράψει όλα πάνω τους.

“Είμαστε αποφασισμένοι να συνεχίσουμε να φέρει τις καλύτερες και μεγαλύτερες μάχες με τους οπαδούς εδώ στο Λος Άντζελες, επειδή το Λος Άντζελες είναι και πάλι η πρωτεύουσα αγώνα του κόσμου.”

**Tickets On Sale Now at SeatGeek.com**

Blockbuster Event to Feature Unbeaten Former 168-Pound Champion David Benavidez, Undefeated Former Bantamweight Champion Luis Nery & Fan Favorite Chris Arreola In Separate Bouts on Four-Fight Pay-Per-View Card

**ARLINGTON, TX.** (Φεβρουάριος 14, 2019) – Unbeaten IBF Welterweight World Champion **Errol “Η Αλήθεια” Spence Jr.** defends his title against undefeated four-division champion **Mikey Garcia** in a highly anticipated and historic showdown for pound-for-pound supremacy that headlines a Premier Boxing Champions on FOX Sports Pay-Per-View event on Saturday, Μάρτιος 16 from AT&T Stadium στο Άρλινγκτον, Τέξας.

The four-fight pay-per-view card will also see unbeaten former super middleweight world champion **David Benavidez** taking on veteran contender **J'Leon Αγάπη** σε αναμέτρηση 10 γύρων, undefeated former 118-pound champion **Luis Nery** μάχεται πρώην πρωταθλητής **McJoe Arroyo** in a 10-round attraction and fan-favorite **Chris “Ο εφιάλτης” Arreola** facing unbeaten **Jean Pierre Augustin** for 10-rounds of action.

Tickets for this showdown, η οποία προωθείται από TGB προωθήσεις και Ringstar Αθλητισμός, είναι στην πώληση τώρα, και μπορούν να αγοραστούν στο SeatGeek.com, ο Επίσημος Πάροχος Εισιτηρίων του Α.Τ&Γήπεδο Τ.

Spence and Garcia will go face-to-face on Saturday, Φεβρουάριος 16 at a press conference in Los Angeles that will air live on FOX from the Microsoft Theater at L.A. Live in downtown Los Angeles beginning at 4:30 μ.μ. ΚΑΙ / 1:30 μ.μ. PT. The press conference is open to ticket holders for the Leo Santa Cruz vs. Rafael Rivera featherweight championship fight.

Την Τρίτη, Φεβρουάριος 19, Spence and Garcia will square off at a press conference from
AT&T Stadium where they will finally go toe-to-toe on March 16.

Garcia is stepping up two weight classes from his last fight to challenge Spence for the welterweight title in Spence’s backyard, not far from the Dallas suburb of DeSoto where Spence grew up a lifelong Dallas Cowboys fan. Garcia will be fighting in Texas for the ninth time as a pro and figures to be buoyed by the large contingent of Mexican and Mexican-American fans that will be in attendance.

His task has historical parallels to the paths taken by great fighters like Shane Mosley, Juan Manuel Marquez and Manny Pacquiao, who all moved up multiple weight classes to challenge all-time great welterweights. Mosley and Pacquiao were both successful in moving up from lightweight to defeat Oscar De La Hoya, while Marquez’s rise to welterweight was halted in a decision loss to Floyd Mayweather.

Spence is a power-punching welterweight who has stopped his last 11 opponents heading into this intriguing matchup against the brilliant tactician that Garcia has established himself as. With a clash of two superb boxers in the prime of their careers and squarely in the top-five of the mythical pound-for-pound rankings, the winner can stake a claim as the best boxer in the sport today.

“Errol Spence Jr. vs. Mikey Garcia is a matchup of two highly-skilled and accomplished fighters in a true blockbuster showdown,” είπε ο Τομ Μπράουν, Πρόεδρος της TGB Προσφορές. “Fans will get to see the hometown hero Spence against the Mexican-American superstar Garcia with huge contingents of fans uplifting them to put on a performance to match the moment. Combined with a jam-packed pay-per-view undercard of action fights, this has all the makings of a once-in-a-lifetime event.”

“Spence vs. Garcia is an event that transcends boxing and is a coronation that will crown the new ‘King of Boxing,'” said Richard Schaefer, Πρόεδρος και Διευθύνων Σύμβουλος της Ringstar Αθλητισμός. “In addition to the main event, fight fans will be treated to a spectacular night of boxing featuring three of the most exciting Mexican fighters in the sport in David Benavidez, Luis Nery and Chris Arreola. This is exactly what a pay-per-view card is and should be all about: entertainment and non-stop action from the first bell to the last!”

“We are proud to host a boxing match of this magnitude with Errol Spence Jr. and Mikey Garcia,” said Dallas Cowboys Owner, President and General Manager Jerry Jones. “AT&T Stadium was built to house the greatest sporting events on the planet, and we feel we have another incredible boxing event on the horizon with this matchup in our building on March 16.”

Spence (24-0, 21 KOs) is no stranger to big stadium events as he won the IBF title by traveling to England to take on then-champion Kell Brook at Bramhall Lane soccer stadium on May 27, 2017. In front of a raucous crowd of over 27,000 loyal Brook supporters, the 28-year-old Spence stopped Brook in round 11 to wrest away the title.

This will be Spence’s third defense of the title. After beating Brook, he successfully defended it with an eighth-round stoppage of two-division champion Lamont Peterson and then knocked out mandatory challenger Carlos Ocampo in the first round in his last fight at Ford Center at The Star in Frisco, Τέξας, near his hometown of Desoto, Texas on June 16. Spence turned pro shortly after representing the U.S. κατά το 2012 London Olympics with much promise and rose to the championship ranks with wins over former champion Chris Algieri and veteran contenders Leonard Bundu, Alejandro Barrera and Chris van Heerden.

“I can’t wait for March 16th. It doesn’t get bigger than this,” said Spence. “Fighting at AT&T Stadium in my hometown is a dream come true. If I beat Mikey Garcia the way I plan on beating him, I will be the guy in the sport. This is my year and Mikey isn’t going to stop me. I am training like this is the biggest fight of my life and I want to put on a great show for the fans and win convincingly.”

Γκαρσία (39-0, 30 KOs) is striving to put together a legendary career and is aggressively pursuing that goal. He has won world championships at featherweight, κατώτερος ελαφρύς, lightweight and junior welterweight. He now eyes a welterweight title against the consensus class of the division in Spence. Fighting out of Moreno Valley, Καλιφόρνια, Garcia unified the IBF and WBC Lightweight World Championships in his last bout by scoring unanimous decision victory over Robert Easter, Jr. τον Ιουλιο 28.

The 31-year-old first reached the championship ranks by blitzing through the featherweight and junior lightweight division, defeating Orlando Salido, Juan Manuel Lopez, Roman Martinez and Juan Carlos Burgos to establish himself as a star in the sport. Garcia has been on a fast track since ending a nearly 2-1/2-year hiatus with a knockout victory over Elios Rojas in 2016. After the victory over Rojas, Garcia scored a KO victory over Dejan Zlaticanin for the WBC lightweight championship in January 2017, before defeating four-division champion Adrien Broner in July and then captured a title at 140-pounds by dropping and defeating Sergey Lipinets last March.

“In my career I’ve always sought to fight the best in boxing and this fight against Errol Spence Jr. is just that,” είπε ο Γκαρσία. “I want to be known as one of the all-time greats and what better way to do that than to win a welterweight title and become a five-division world champion. I have a tremendous amount of respect for Errol and what he’s accomplished, but I fully expect to leave the ring at AT&T Stadium with the welterweight world title. This is a match that I’ve been looking forward to for a long time and I plan on giving the fans a performance they’ll never forget.”

The 22-year-old Benavidez (20-0, 17 KOs) became the youngest fighter to ever win a super middleweight title in 2017 when he defeated Ronald Gavril at just 20-years-old. Fighting out of Phoenix, Benavidez’s older brother Jose is also a pro fighter who challenged Terrence Crawford last year. Benavidez most recently won a rematch against Gavril last February, and as WBC “Champion in Recess” he will look to reclaim his belt against the winner of the Anthony Dirrell vs. Avni Yildirim bout for the vacant title on February 23.

Born in Detroit but fighting out of Las Vegas, Αγάπη (24-2-1, 13 KOs) has long been amongst the top contenders at super middleweight and most recently lost a decision to Peter Quillin in August. The 31-year-old had been previously unbeaten in seven bouts heading into the contest against Quillin.

Currently riding a nine-fight knockout streak, Nery (28-0, 24 KOs) will look to get one step closer to a fight to regain a bantamweight title when he steps into the ring March 16. The 24-year-old from Tijuana, Mexico twice traveled to Japan and stopped Shinsuke Yamanaka in WBC title fights. Σε 2018 he stopped Jason Canoy and Renson Robles heading into his U.S. debut against Arroyo.

Ένας 2008 Olympian for his home country of Puerto Rico, Ξερολάγγαδο (18-2. 8 KOs) captured a 115-pound championship with a technical decision over Arthur Villanueva in their 2015 clash. After dropping decisions against Rau’shee Warren and Jerwin Ancajas, the 33-year-old most recently defeated Sander Diaz last June.

An exciting brawler inside the ring, Arreola (37-5-1, 32 KOs) is well-known for challenging the best heavyweights in the sport throughout his career, and for becoming a popular attraction in and around his native Los Angeles for his fighting style and persona. The 37-year-old faced the likes of Vitali Klitschko, Tomasz Adamek, and Bermane Stiverne, before challenging Deontay Wilder for his title in 2016. After a brief retirement, Arreola returned to stop Maurenzo Smith last December.

Unbeaten and fighting out of Louisville, Augustin (17-0-1, 12 KOs) will face his toughest and most experienced test to date in Arreola. Γεννήθηκε στην Αϊτή, Augustin turned pro in 2014 and has steadily climbed up the heavyweight rankings.

Τάμπα, FL (Φεβρουάριος 13, 2019) – Fire Fist Boxing’s Connor “The Kid” Coyle, Willian “Baby Face” Silva and Mark Reyes Jr. will all fight as part of a UFC Fight Pass card Saturday, Φεβρουάριος 16 at the Coliseum in St. Πετρούπολη, FL.

This excellent evening of boxing is promoted by Roy Jones Jr. Boxing Promotions in association with Rite Hook Promotions.

Headlining the telecast is an eight round middleweight showdown between Coyle and Travis “Dirty Red” Scott.

Splitting time between his native Ireland and St. Πετρούπολη, FL, Coyle’s a perfect 8-0 με 3 κερδίζει με νοκ-άουτ. He’s become a big draw in the Tampa-St Pete area and most recently scored a sixth round TKO of Danny Pastrana. The talented Coyle has been featured as a prospect to watch out for by media members from both sides of the pond.

Fighting out of Baton Rouge, LA, Scott is Coyle’s most experienced foe to date. The 38-year-old has an excellent 19-4 επαγγελματικό βιβλίο με 5 KO του. A true veteran of the sport, Scott turned pro in 2004 when Coyle was 14.

Welterweight phenom Mark Reyes Jr of Tampa, FL risks his 0 against fellow unbeaten Rodrigo Tatijewski of Sao Paolo, Brazil in a highly-anticipated six round contest.

The wildly popular Reyes Jr. είναι 8-0 με 6 KO του. An athletic boxer-puncher, Reyes is coming off a third round TKO of Juan Garces last October and at 22-years-old, continues to improve rapidly.

Tatijewski, who is fighting for the first time in the United States, είναι 8-0 και έχει 7 wins by way of knockout. He’s confident of making a major splash by taking out Reyes in front of millions of viewers on UFC Fight Pass.

Junior welterweight Willian “Baby Face” Silva of Plant City, FL by way of Sao Paolo, Brazil challenges rugged Argentinian Juan Ramon Solis in a ten rounder.

Δάση, who has an excellent 26-2 professional ledger and 15 κερδίζει με νοκ-άουτ, scored a dominant 9^ου round TKO over Jose Forero last October. After fighting most of his career at lightweight, Silva’s sights are set on the best at 140 pounds but he must first get past Solis.

Living and fighting out of Buenos Aires, Αργεντινή, Solis is 25-13 με 9 KO του. The 36-year-old’s faced many top fighters including world champion Robert Easter, contenders Sergio Thompson and Diego Silva along with unbeaten Saul Rodriguez among others.

“This is a great opportunity for Connor, Mark and Willian,” said Jody Caliguire of Fire Fist Boxing. “The UFC Fight Pass platform is perfect for all three of these excellent boxers to showcase their talent to fans from all over. We’re looking forward to Saturday evening.”

The 28-year-old Hammer (24-0, 11 KOs) owns the WBO belt, is the WBC Champion in Recess, and has dominated the women’s middleweight division for more than eight years. Shields and Hammer fought on the same card last June on SHOWTIME, with both fighters winning impressively to set up the first undisputed showdown in the women’s 160-pound division.

The winner of Shields vs. Hammer will join Terrence Crawford, Jermain Taylor, Bernard Hopkins, Oleksandr Usyk and women’s welterweight Cecilia Braekhus as the only fighters to have unified all four major world titles in any weight class.

Shields vs. Hammer is promoted by Salita Promotions. Ticket prices and on-sale date will be announced next week by Boardwalk Hall.

“I always seek the biggest challenges and set the highest goals.

I want to be the greatest of all time and change the game forever for all women in sports, and April 13 is an important step on that road to history.”

“I have waited a long time for this moment,” said Hammer. “I am bigger, stronger and more experienced than Claressa Shields. I am undefeated and have been a champion for over eight years. I can’t wait to show the world that I am the best and undisputed middleweight champion of the world.”

“SHOWTIME Sports has a long history of featuring the best in women’s combat sports, whether it was with Laila Ali and Christy Martin in boxing, or Gina Carano, Cris Cyborg and Ronda Rousey in MMA,” said Gordon Hall, Executive Producer του *SHOWTIME BOXING: SPECIAL EDITION*. “More recently, αφού 2016 we have featured today’s elite with Claressa Shields, Christina Hammer, Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano appearing in an industry-leading 10 presentations of women’s boxing.

We have two of the best pound-for-pound female fighters in the world facing each other with all four middleweight titles at stake. It doesn’t get much better than that.”

“The biggest women’s fight of all time is set to take place on April 13 at Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City,” said promoter Dmitriy Salita. “Claressa Shields and Christina Hammer, και οι δύο πρωταθλητές, both in their prime, are not only taking on the biggest challenge in their respective careers by meeting each other in the ring, but are breaking barriers for boxing and for women in sports. Απρίλιος 13 is destined to be an electric and historic night of boxing live on SHOWTIME.”

“Shields vs. Hammer is the biggest and most important fight in women’s boxing history – two undefeated unified champions in their prime battling for the undisputed middleweight championship of the world,” said Shields’ manager Mark Taffet. “Christina Hammer is indeed a very good fighter and champion, but Claressa Shields is once-in-a-lifetime. The same intense focus and determination that got Claressa through life, earned her two Olympic gold medals, and won her five world titles in eight pro fights will carry her to victory on April 13.”

“We are very excited to bring world-class championship boxing back to Atlantic City’s Jim Whelan Boardwalk Hall,” said Matt Doherty, Executive Director of the Casino Reinvestment Development Authority. “This reinforces the CRDA’s commitment to attract world-class sporting events and increase visitors to our destination.”

Shields was the first American boxer in history – male or female – to win consecutive Olympic gold medals. Ο Φλιντ, Μιχ., native turned professional following the 2016 Olympics and became unified women’s super middleweight world champion in just her fourth professional fight. Shields moved down to middleweight for her June 22 headliner on SHOWTIME, defeating Hanna Gabriels to win the IBF and WBA titles and become a two-division champion in just her sixth professional contest. After Hammer was named WBC Champion in Recess due to her medical issue, Shields picked up the vacant WBC title last November with a unanimous decision over Hannah Rankin. She most recently defended all three titles in December against Femke Hermans.

Σφυρί, of Dortmund, Γερμανία, has been the dominant force in the women’s middleweight division since winning the WBO title in 2010. Hammer became unified champion in 2016 with a unanimous decision over WBC titlist Kali Reis and made four defenses as unified champion. In her eight years as champion, Hammer has lost just a handful of rounds across 16 αγώνες παγκόσμιου τίτλου. Σφυρί, who also models professionally and was recently featured at Fashion Week in New York City, made her U.S. debut on June 22 after campaigning mostly in Germany since turning professional in 2009. After being forced to withdraw from the November unification due to the health issue, Hammer won a non-title fight via second round knockout last Saturday, Φεβρουάριος 9 στη Γερμανία.
