Domaćin okruglog stola bio je nagrađivani novinar SHOWTIME Sports Jim Gray iz hotela Westin Bonaventure & Apartmani, Los Angeles. Evo što su legende teške kategorije morale reći u petak:

 

EVANDER HOLYFIELD

 

 

“Osjećam da će Deontay Wilder pobijediti jer će na kraju doskočiti toj desnoj ruci. Vrlo je strpljiv. On je mislilac, ali može i riskirati. Kad ljudi riskiraju, oni pobjeđuju.

 

 

 

“Deontay možda neće imati toliko iskustva kao mi danas, ali on ima moć. To ljudi žele vidjeti i mislim da će biti sretni kad to vide.

 

 

 

“Bilo je trenutka u kojem je svaki veliki teškaš bio iz Sjedinjenih Država. Imali smo jako dobar amaterski program. Bio sam posljednji pravi prvak u teškoj kategoriji iz SAD-a. prije Wildera i dok nisam izgubio odluku protiv Lennoxa.

 

 

 

“Biti svjetski prvak u teškoj kategoriji, i reći da ste najbolji, moraš se boriti protiv bilo kojeg muškarca.”

 

Lennox Lewis

 

 

 

“Mislim da će to biti sjajna borba. Deontay Wilder ima sjajnu desnu ruku i kad padne, ne može se previše ljudi tome suprotstaviti. Također mislim da ne možete povrijediti ono što ne možete pogoditi. Tysona Furyja nije lako pogoditi. Ima velike sposobnosti i kretanje. Idem s Deontayem rano ili Fury kasno.

 

 

 

“Svi znamo kakav je osjećaj izgubiti prvenstvo u teškoj kategoriji. Znamo koliko je teško to vratiti. Fury ga je izgubio, a sada to želi natrag. Sad vidim da se žrtvuje i govori sebi da to nije smio izgubiti, a sada ga mora povratiti.

 

 

 

“Mislim da pogled u Velikoj Britaniji. je da je Tyson Fury čovjek koji se pojačao. Rukavica je bačena tamo i zauzeo se za Britaniju. Deontay je došao u Englesku da izazove Anthonyja Joshuu, ali Tyson Fury je bio taj koji se odazvao pozivu.

 

 

 

“Rekao bih da postoji nekoliko meka u boksu koja su mjesta na kojima se svi žele boriti. Las Vegas, New York i naravno, Los Angeles. Moja borba protiv Vitalija Klička u STAPLES centru bila je sjajna borba. Moj plan te večeri nije bio boksati da bih otišao na daljinu, Boksao sam da pređem kratku udaljenost i to je i učinio.”

 

RIDDICK POKLON

 

 

 

“Sutra navečer idem s Deontayem Wilderom. Priredit će sjajnu predstavu za sve i dobiti još jedan nokaut.

 

 

 

“Tyson Fury je vješt i visok, ali za mene, ne radi dovoljno na napadu. Kreće se, ali ne miče dovoljno ruke.”

 

GERRY COONEY

 

 

 

“Mislim da je to sjajna borba sutra navečer. Znamo da se Fury vraća motiviran. Ako Wilder nađe dom za to pravo, izvest će Furyja. Mislim da će se povezati kad-tad tijekom borbe.

 

 

 

“Mislim da je Tyson Fury sjajan čovjek za koliko se vratio u životu i za suprotstavljanje Deontayu Wilderu. Fury ga je prozvao, pa možda zna nešto što mi ne znamo.

 

 

 

“Tako mi je drago što sam ovdje. Pogledajte sve ove sjajne teškaše i sjajne momke. Posebna je i svi su ovdje da gledaju ovu borbu sutra navečer.”

 

EARNIE BRAVICI

 

 

 

“Ja i Deontay smo oboje iz Alabame. Uskoro ću biti primljen u Sportsku dvoranu slavnih u Alabami, a jednog će dana biti i Deontay. Deontay je izvrstan udarač i vučem za njim sutra navečer.

 

 

 

“Borio sam se u velikoj eri. Ako se borite s dečkima na istoj razini, dobit ćete dobre borbe. Ovi bi momci danas mogli ući tamo u naše dane i prirediti dobru predstavu.”

 

BUSTER DOUGLAS

 

 

 

“Mislim da će ovo biti dobra natjecateljska borba. Kad bih morao odabrati, Uzeo bih Deontaya Wildera nokautom u osmoj rundi.

 

 

 

“Osjećam da je Tyson Fury već pobijedio boreći se i ulazeći u sjajnu formu i nalazeći se u ovoj poziciji. Siguran sam da su mnogi ljudi mislili da ga nikad više neće vidjeti ovdje. To je pobjeda sama po sebi.

 

 

 

“Moja pobjeda nad Mikeom Tysonom na sjajan je način promijenila moj život. Sad sam bio prvak svijeta u teškoj kategoriji. San mi se ostvario. Jedino što je moglo to nadmašiti bilo je vidjeti moje dvoje najmlađe djece.”

 

MICHAEL SPINKS

 

 

“Neka kum pobijediti. Ne znam tko je u najboljoj formi, ali mislim da me Fury zbog izlaska iz ringa naginje prema Deontayu Wilderu. Ako je Fury osobno toliko velik koliko kažu da jest, on ima veliku priliku.

 

 

“Ako ste underdog, jednostavno morate nastaviti s onim što znate i na čemu ste radili. Ne možete obratiti pažnju na sumnjičave. Usredotočite se na ono za što ste se pripremili i dajte sve od sebe. Uvijek sam se vidio kako pobjeđujem. Najveći je osjećaj izaći iz ringa pobjednički.”

Here is what the press conference participants had to say Thursday from Westin Bonaventure Hotel & Suites Los Angeles:
JARRETT HURD
Everything that my team and I have spoken about has come to pass. I’m here as the co-main of a massive card and I’m just really appreciative of everyone who believed in me and helped push me to this moment.
Saturday night I want to show my versatility. Everyone has seen that I’m electrifying. I bring the action. But I want to show that I am swift and I do have defense. I know how to use my height and range. I’m still going to bring the action on Saturday, so you have to make sure to tune-in.
We don’t think of Welborn as a tune-up fight. Jason Welborn is a British champion for a reason. We just want to go out there and establish the game plan we worked on in camp.
I want to show my defensive side and show that I can box and move. I want to show that I don’t have to just keep coming forward. I’m going to be able to do that and start to break him down and get him out of there.
Everybody sees my demeanor, and they know that I carry that to the ring. My composure is my biggest attribute. Bez obzira što bilo tko kaže, I’m always going to be me.
I’m number one in the division and things are going to play out how I want them. We’ve had three tough camps training for southpaws. When I eventually fight (WBC champion) Jermell Charlo, I’m going to be ready because of all the work on my versatility and defense. I’ll be ready for Jermell Charlo.
I want to be an active champion because I didn’t have a lot of amateur fights. I need to stay in the ring and get all the experience I can. I want to get these good fights in while I’m still young and healthy.
I’m back from my surgery and we’re going to get back to the old Jarrett Hurd. I’m going to show everyone all that I can do. Everyone knows that there’s always going to be action. It’s going to be a wonderful fight on a wonderful card. Don’t blink during this one.
JASON WELBORN
This is a dream come true to be here today. Hurd has worked his way up to get here just like I have. Sada, he’s in my way. I hope everyone enjoys what I bring to the table on Saturday night.
I have the belief that I’m born and bred for this game and I’m going to show it to the whole world on Saturday night. I always prove people wrong.
The last two years I’ve become the best in Britain and beaten everyone they put in front of me. When people doubt me, I train even harder. I’m coming to win and I’ve got nothing to lose.
I have to get what I deserve and I’ll do it on Saturday night. I’ve already been through the storm. He’s got what I want.
I’ve got to enjoy the fight and get what I want. He can look past me all he wants, but once he feels what I bring to the table, we’ll see how he reacts. I’m ready for whatever he’s going to bring to the table.
LUIS ORTIZ
I want to thank everyone who has helped me get this opportunity. I like to do my talking in the ring, but I’m happy that Travis Kauffman stepped up. A lot of heavyweights haven’t done that and I’m glad we can make this fight happen.
I’m coming to do my job. This is a heavyweight fight and we know that means one punch can change everything. It’s not going to end well for Travis on Saturday night.
“Tamo su 10 rounds to get the job done, and three minutes per round. I’m going to get my job done. The job is to seek and destroy. So I hope that Travis is very prepared to give the fans a great show. Saturday night you’ll see ‘King Kong’ u prstenu.
I’ve pushed myself even harder than ever in training camp. Mi držati s istim igra plan obitelji prvi i vjerujem da će biti nagrađeni. Moj petogodišnji dječak me podsjeća da imam gubitak i da motivira me trenirati teže i teže.
“Očekujem Travis imati veliko povjerenje on pokazuje. To je velika prilika za njega, a ja sam siguran da će biti motivirani. Ja sam motiviran za svaku borbu, jer to je ne samo o mom protivniku. Moj cilj je pružiti za moju obitelj i Travis je na putu. Nikad nisam odvratiti od tog mentaliteta i to je dobio mene spremna za subotu navečer.”
TRAVIS Kauffman
“Ja sam zahvalan Luis Ortiz za uzimanje ovu borbu. Svatko se boji da ga se boriti, ali ne bojim se nikoga. Svi znamo da je Luis Ortiz može bušiti, but I don’t care about any of that. It’s my time. I come from a rough background and I won’t back down.
“Ovo je moje vrijeme. There’s nothing that’s going to stop me from taking this guy down. He’s so worried about Deontay Wilder, but he has to worry about me before he gets any rematch.
You might not know who I am right now, but you will after Saturday night. I’m going to make sure people remember my name.
Luis Ortiz is very skilled, but if you want to be the best you have to fight the best. No one actually wants to step up and take this fight, but I really believe this is my time. I bring some heat in the ring and I come to fight every time.
JOE JOYCE
I’m excited to be on this massive card. I’m going to give the whole world a treat as part of a great event. You have to tune-in and watch me start the show off right on Saturday night.
Training in Big Bear has been a perfect environment for me. It’s in the mountains, it has the altitude and it’s secluded. I’ve seen what goes into their training camps and worked alongside the best in the world. They’ve helped me install the kind of style that will have me at my best.
I have the Olympic pedigree, but now it’s about advancing the brute strength and really getting the perfect snap on my shots.
Sparring against Tyson Fury was really top-level work. I know that it’s made me a better fighter. He’s looking fit and strong and it shows when you’re in the ring with him.
“Ovo je velika prilika. Abel Sanchez has done a tremendous job getting me ready for this position. I’m excited to show everyone my skills and everything I’ve learned.
I’m glad that Joe Hanks decided to take this fight. I can’t wait to lace up the gloves and get the party started. I’m going to keep my knockout streak going and I guarantee it’s going to be exciting
JOE HANKS
It’s been a long time coming for this moment. I’m thankful to my team and I’m excited to be on this card with other great heavyweights. It’s a great time to be a heavyweight. I’m ready to put my name in the ring to have the chance to really do something special with a great performance Saturday.
The work has been done. I did everything that I had to do. I’ve done more than I did preparing for my past fights. Being the underdog doesn’t mean much to me. I’m from Newark, New Jersey, and we’re all underdogs there.
I’ve put the time in and I’ve had everyone supporting me and pushing me and I think it’s going to get me over the hump. I’m just really excited to get in there.
STEPHEN Espinoza, Predsjednik Sport & događaj Programiranje, Showtime Networks Inc.
When we talk about Jarrett Hurd, he’s a fighter who has seemingly come out of nowhere and has had an incredibly rapid rise to the top. He was not a decorated amateur. He has learned on the job. All he has done since beating Oscar Molina in 2016 is impress. He is recognized as one of the bright young stars in boxing. He has been off due to injury and certainly could have taken an easier fight than Jason Welborn, who is a British Commonwealth champion. We’re expecting an action fight there.
Luis Ortiz is one of the top heavyweights in the world. He has one blemish on his otherwise perfect record, a loss to Deontay Wilder. Perhaps Ortiz was just seconds away from victory. We talk about a slim margin in fights, that was the slimmest of margins. I think he is going to be trying to make a statement on the undercard that he deserves a rematch against Deontay Wilder. Standing in his way will be Travis Kauffman. This is another all-action fight filled with big punchers.
In our opening bout, we have one of the most talked-about rising young heavyweights in the sport – Joe Joyce, who is taking on a tough veteran in Joe Hanks. Kao što znamo, the heavyweight division has been the focus more in the last six to nine months than we’ve seen in the last couple decades. Joe Joyce is at the top of the list on the potential next wave of future stars. He is certainly not wasting any time taking on a fighter of Joe Hankscaliber.
When you look at the card overall, you’ve got some of the biggest punchers in boxing. I wouldn’t be surprised if we see several knockouts on this card. Don’t miss the action.

Here is what Stevenson, Gvozdyk and their respective trainers had to say Thursday at Chateau Bonne Entente in Quebec City:

 

ADONIS STEVENSON:

 

 

 

“Saturday is a big fight. I’m not underestimating Gvozdyk. I know he’s a good fighter and he’s hungry. He’s trained very hard to get my title. But everybody who comes to my home in Canada always wants my title, but it’s never happened and it’s not going to happen now.

 

 

 

“I’m looking for the knockout. That’s just my mentality and the way that I train. Šećer [Hill Steward] trains me to think that way but I can also go 12 kola, it’s not a problem. I know that if he makes a mistake, I’m going to catch him. He only has to slip up once in 12 kola. One mistake, one punch. That’s all it’s going to take. Ja sam spreman. I know I can punch and it’s 12 kola. I just need one punch. Just one. I’m going to catch him and the night will be over.

 

 

 

“I’ve been pushing myself in training and I’m going to put on another great performance come Saturday and will defend my title once again. In the words of my old trainer, Emanuel Steward, ‘knockouts selland that’s what I’m going for in this fight. I know I’m facing a good boxer who’s coming in very determined. He’ll be ready, but it won’t be enough. Superman is in the building!"

 

OLEKSANDR GVOZDYK:

 

 

“I’m glad to finally be here. Jako sam uzbuđen. I want to thank Top Rank and GYM Promotions for finally making this happen. I respect Adonis Stevenson as a fighter, he’s a great champion. But I am ready to accept this challenge and on Saturday night there will be a new champion.

 

 

 

“I have one of the greatest trainers in the history of boxing so I’m very confident. We have a good strategy. We had an excellent training camp and I’m ready. Adonis is a great fighter. He’s a dangerous southpaw and this is a real step-up for me but it’s my time.

 

 

 

“People always ask about Stevenson’s age but George Foreman and Bernard Hopkins performed at a high level when they were 50-years-old. It really just depends on how you maintain your body, your living conditions, how you eat and how you train.

 

 

 

“I’m not worried about what the bookmakers say. It doesn’t mean anything that they think I am the favorite. I try to stay focused on the things that I need to be focused on, not what the bookmakers think. The further this fight goes, the better my chances are. My height, my movement and my patience will win me this fight.”

 

SUGAR HILL STEWARD, STEVENSON’S TRAINER

 

 

 

“I’m happy to be here once again. This is like a second home for Adonis. This fight is just going to be regular Adonis. Adonis wants to get a knockout. Volim knockouts. This is how we train for every fight. It’s no disrespect to any fighter, but that’s just the mentality that we have. Adonis and I don’t believe in leaving it in the hands of the judges and that’s been working so far. We will continue to do what we’ve been doing.”

 

 

 

“Adonis has been training his whole life for something like this. This is a big world championship fight against a former Olympian. Welcome to big time boxing, this is what it’s all about. Come December 1, Adonis Stevenson is going to get another knockout.”

 

TEDDY ATLAS, GVOZDYK’S TRAINER

 

 

“We knew that this would be a very difficult fight but what we didn’t know was how difficult it would be to get here. That part of the fight is over, zahvaljujući. We spent eight weeks in California preparing for this bout. Preparing for a tremendous champion. I don’t have to speak about how long he’s been a champion, his reign, his experience, how talented and dangerous he is as a puncher. I believe he’s the best or second-best puncher in boxing today. It’s either him or [Deontay] Wilder, whatever you choose.

 

 

 

“Stevenson has all of the qualities a great fighter needs. He has a great heart, he’s gotten off the canvas and showed tremendous heart late in the Badou Jack fight. This is quite a task that’s in front of us. We understand that. The good news is that we know exactly what we’re facing and we’ve prepared the last eight weeks for that. We have not overlooked anything. I have no doubt that although we have a very steep challenge in front of us, that on Saturday night we will have a new Light Heavyweight Champion of the World.”

Decastro: It’s My Destiny To Be World Champion.

 

 

Bardney, Lincolnshire’s Nathan Decastro (14-0-0) wholeheartedly believes it is his destiny to become World Champion. In just over a weeks time he finally gets the opportunity to make his childhood dream come true, when challenges Accra, Ghana’s Daniel Adjei Sowah (20-6-2) za World Boxing unije (WBU), Super Middleweight Championship of the World at the Glasgow Club in Bellahouston, Glasgow on Saturday the 8th December 2018.

 

Decastro, who is currently ranked #6 in the International Boxing Federation (IBF) Intercontinental rankings, earned the shot for the WBU World Crown with a solid points victory over West African Boxing Union (WABU) Champion Agoe Ashong (11-2-0) to secure the Professional Boxing Council (PBC) Commonwealth title at Pride Park in Derby back in September.

 

Speaking from his home earlier Decastro could barely hide his joy at the opportunity to fight for his first World Championship.

 

I’m buzzing, I just can’t wait. I mean not only am I fighting for the World title, but will be fighting for it on the undercard of Scott Harrison’s return to the ring, exciting times.

 

My camps gone really well, I’m feeling fitter and stronger than ever. We’re not leaving anything to chance; we’ve covered every conceivable angle.

 

My father Frank has made sure of that, he’s a great coach, I really am blessed that he trains me.

 

We know he’s a banger, but so am I and what’s more I have a better KO ration of 11 u 14 against his 13 u 28 and more importantly I believe I am more hungry for this than him.

 

It’s been my dream since I started boxing as a youngster to win a World title and now I’m just over a week away from making my dreams come true.

 

Especially as I am fighting for the WBU Title, we have history with this Championship at the Bracebridge Boxing Club, as Kelly Oliver whose father owns the club also fought for the WBU crown, at Cruiserweight, so have to win it and bring the belt back to the gym I’ve trained at all my career.

 

Decastro then went on to vent his frustrations over the way bureaucracy had thwarted his previous Championship efforts.

 

I’ve had a really frustrating year or so, yes I won the Commonwealth title last time out but twice this year I was supposed to challenge for the World title.

 

Unfortunately bureaucratic red tape caused the fights to be cancelled, either Visa issues came into play, as with the original planned fight against Agoe (Ashong) in July or worse still unnecessary political interference by the EBU, which scuppered the IBF European fight against Ronnie (Landaeta).

 

This time though it’s different, Daniel has his Visa and the EBU can’t possibly interfere, so no excuses.

 

It’s my destiny to be World Champion, come 8th December, my dreams will come true, I will be crowned World Champion as I owe it to my legion of fans that have been awesome and so supportive.

 

Nathan ‘NightmareDecastro versus Daniel Adjei Sowah for the World Boxing Union (WBU) Super Middleweight Championship of the World, is the main support for the highly anticipated return to the ring of two time WBO World Champion Scott Harrison (27-3-2) against Tackie Annan (11-6-0) at the Glasgow Club in Bellahouston, Glasgow on Saturday the 8th December 2018.

Before he meets Fury on SHOWTIME PPV®from STAPLES Center, Wilder delivered tickets for first responders alongside L.A. Fire Department Chief Ralph Terrazas at LAFD Station 3. Wilder spent time with the first responders and donned the firefighter uniform while conducting interviews.

 

 

 

These men and women risk their lives each and every day,” Said Wilder. “When the duty calls, they’re at the top of their game. I really respect the hard work that they do and I’m blessed to be here and be amongst so many brave people.

 

 

 

I just really appreciate everyone here and I’m looking forward to seeing them at the fight on Saturday night. This donation is for all of the things that they do on a daily basis, and everything they do that people don’t see. They are always ready when the time comes. I know that the city and the state appreciates everything you do.

 

 

 

We’re very proud to host the champ here at LAFD Station 3,said Chief Terrazas. “We wish you well and we look forward to celebrating with you on Saturday night. It’s very special that Deontay wanted to come here and recognize all the hard work that these men and women do.

 

 

 

Bijes, who spent his training camp Southern California, joined L.A. County Fire Chief Daryl Osby at the L.A. County Fire Department Headquarters to meet with first responders.

 

 

 

These firefighters are heroes who have been out there every day saving lives,” said Fury. “Since I’ve been here I’ve been following the situation and the fantastic job these men and women have been doing. I’m glad to be here to tell them how thankful I am for what they do and help give them a break Saturday night.

 

 

 

Training in California has really opened my eyes to see so many different cultures and so many different things that are going on here. There’s a lot of homeless people on the streets and when I go home I’m going to build homes for the homeless and set up funds for those in need. Being here has given me that extra push to do more.

 

 

 

We’re very thankful for these tickets and for the support shown today for our firefighters,” said Chief Osby. “They put their lives on the line to protect our citizens and our community and we’re happy that their efforts are acknowledged.

Undefeated prospect Richard “Popeye mornar čovjek” Rivera takes his act South

HARTFORD, Conn. (Studeni 26, 2018) – Neporažena perspektiva Richard “Popeye mornar čovjek” Rivera will take his act South this Friday night, when he fights Joshua Robertson u “stay busyfight on theBoxing Bash” kartica, presented by Christy Martin Promotions, at Centerstage@Noda in Charlotte, Sjeverna Karolina.

 

 

 

Rivera vs. Robertson, contested at a 185-pounds catchweight, will be co-promoted by Rivera’s promoter, Hartford Boxing Promotions.

 

 

 

Rivera (8-0, 7 Kos), the reigning Universal Boxing Federation (UBF) All America light heavyweight champion, is part of a trio that formed Hartford Boxing Promotions earlier this year, including Rivera’s manager/head trainer Tony Blanco and their partner, Michael Tran.

 

 

Fighting out of Hartford (CT), Rivera has rejuvenated that market, whose rich boxing history dates back nearly a full century, headlined by International Hall of Famers Willie “Will othe WispPep a ChristopherBattlingBattalino. Other top-area boxers include world champion Marlon “Magic Man” Čvorak, naslov svjetskog prvaka izazivači GasparEl IndioOrtega, a Izrael “radije” Cardona, a 1996 USA Olympic Boxing Team captain Lawrence Glina-beg.

 

 

 

Sada, iako, it’s Rivera’s time to shine. Arguably the hardest-hitting, most popular fighter in New England, Rivera hit Randy Campbell so hard this past April in New Hampshire that the force of his powerful right broke his opponent’s ankle only seconds into the contest.

 

 

Rivera has developed a strong fan-base throughout New England and now he’s bringing his “Popeye” persona to the South for the first time. “This is a good opportunity to expand my ‘Popeyebrand,” Rivera said. “My last fight was in Mexico and this fight is in North Carolina. We’re on our way to going worldwide. I have a lot of family in North Carolina, Fayetteville and Raleigh, so I won’t be alone down there.

 

 

 

“Ja vjerujem 2019 won’t be much different that my first year as a pro. I’ll be getting a lot of fights and I think that, by the end of next year, I’ll be fighting for something big. I stay in top shape in case a good opportunity comes around. I’m confident and I’ve really benefitted from being Joe Smith‘s sparring partner. This fight is about staying sharp because I don’t like having too much time off. The plan is to fight in a different part of the country, get a victory, and then remain in top shape.

 

 

 

The wildly popular Rivera originally got his nickname because, when he was younger, his forearms were considerably larger than his biceps. Fighters in the gym jokingly teased Rivera about his enlarged forearms, calling him “Popeye,” and the nickname has stuck. Sada, Rivera showcases his Popeye persona in full, which has added many females and children to his growing fanbase, and he attributes his wins to eating his spinach to be good to the finish.

 

 

 

Fighters today need to be more than talented,” added promoter ChristyThe Coal Minder’s Daughter” Bregunica, the two-division world champion who was a women’s boxing pioneer. I haven’t seen him (Rivera) fight yet, but I’ve been impressed by what I’ve heard about him. He’s a great addition to our card. Rivera is a big guy with power and everybody wants to see big guys. But he’s also smart, marketing wise, by capitalizing on ‘Popeye.He gets it.

 

 

 

Blanco connected with Martin through social media and, as he explained, things went smoothly from there to place Rivera on that card. “We want to keep Richard busy and then have a breakout year in 2019,Blanco noted. “The beauty of Richard is that he stays busy and works hard, sometimes when he’s training by himself. Boxing is his job and I believe he’s destined for greatness.

 

 

 

Robertson (7-11, 2 Kos), od Lynchburg, Virdžinija, has fought the likes of unified world junior middleweight champion Jarrett Hurd, former USBA middleweight title holder Luis Arias, and ex- WBC FECARBOX welterweight titlist Thomas LaManna.

 

 

 

Ulaznice se po cijeni od $70.00 (ring) a $35.00 (general admission and available to purchase at the venue.

 

 

 

Vrata se otvaraju u 6 poslije podne. ET with the first bout scheduled to start at 7 poslije podne. I.
