LOS ANGELES (Dec. 1, 2018) – Deontay “The Bronze Bomber” Wilder and Tyson “The Gypsy King” Fury fought to a split-decision draw on SHOWTIME PPV® on Saturday night from STAPLES Center​ ​in​ ​arguably ​one of the best heavyweight fights in years​.​

 

 

 

After controlling the WBC World Championship fight early, Kòlè (27-0-1, 19 Ko) miraculously overcame two knockdowns by Wilder (40-0-1, 39 Ko) – including one in round 12 – in the improbable draw. Jij yo bay nòt bout la 115-111 for Wilder, 114-112 for Fury and 113-113.

 

 

 

“I think with the two knockdowns I definitely won the fight,” said Wilder, who has recorded a knockdown in each of his 41 pro fights and was defending his WBC belt for the eighth time since 2015. “We poured our hearts out tonight. We’re both warriors, but with those two drops I think I won the fight.”

 

​

 

Fury saw it differently, stating that he gave it everything he had.

 

 

 

“We’re on away soil, I got knocked down twice, but I still believe I won that fight,” said England’s Fury, whose amazing comeback continues following a two and a half-year absence from the sport from drug and alcohol addiction and mental health issues.​ “I hope I did you all proud after nearly three years out of the ring. I was never going to be knocked down tonight. I showed good heart to get up. I came here tonight and I fought my heart out.​”​

 

 

It was an electrifying night with an attendance announced at 17,698 fanatik, which included Hollywood stars and fight fans like former Lakers greats Shaquille O’Neal, Jerry West, former NFL stars Michael Strahan and Michael Irvin, and ​boxing ​legends Evander Holyfield and Floyd Mayweather.

 

 

 

Kòlè, who out-landed Wilder 84-71 an jeneral, was caught by a short right hand by Wilder just behind the left ear to drop Fury for the third time in his career in the ninth round. Then in the 12th, a Wilder right hand and left hook combination sent the 6-foot-9 Fury down again, hitting his head on the canvas. Yon lòt fwa ankò, he managed to ​stand​ up and referee Jack Reiss let him continue to fight.

 

 

 

“Boxing is always the theater of the unexpected, and that’s what we had tonight,” SHOWTIME expert analyst Al Bernstein said.

 

 

 

Bernstein said seeing Fury get up and continue to fight after the brutal knockdown was “one of the most astonishing things I’ve ever seen in the boxing ring.”

 

 

 

SHOWTIME boxing historian and commentator Steve Farhood had Fury controlling the early rounds and Fury winning rounds 3-8, and ultimately scored the fight, 115-111.

 

 

 

Because of a rematch clause, both fighters were asked if they would like to do it again. “I would love for it to be my next fight,” Wilder said. “Why not? Let’s give the fans what they want to see. It was a great fight and let’s do it again. It doesn’t matter to me where we do it.”

 

 

 

“​One hundred​ percent we’ll do the rematch,” said Fury, fighting in the first heavyweight title pay-per-view bout in America since 2002. “We are two great champions. Me and this man are the two best heavyweights on the planet.”

 

 

 

Wilder said he came out slow and rushed his punches. “I didn’t sit still. I was too hesitant. I started overthrowing the right hand and I just couldn’t adjust.”

 

 

 

Kòlè, fighting for the third time this year with 26-year-old trainer Ben Davison in his corner, also had former boxing great Ricky Hatton and seven-time Trainer of the Year Freddie Roach in his corner.

 

 

 

In the lead-up fight to Wilder-Fury, “Swift” Jarrett Hurd (23-0, 16 Ko) defended his 154-pound IBF and WBA world title belts with a fourth-round knockout against United Kingdom’s James Welborn (24-7, 7 Ko), who was fighting for the first time on American soil.

 

 

Welborn was the aggressor in the first minute of the fourth round, sending Hurd to the ropes with punch after punch to the body and head. Suddenly realizing he might be in trouble, Hurd of Accokeek, Md., countered back from sudden adversity in dramatic fashion and sent Welborn back-tracking before a devastating body punch sent him to one knee. He was counted out at 1:55 by referee Lou Moret, who was officiating the final fight of his 30-plus year career.

 

 

 

Apre batay la, undefeated super welterweight Jermell Charlo entered the ring to challenge for Hurd’s coveted belts. “We definitely want Charlo,” Hurd told SHOWTIME Sports’ Jim Gray, saying the matchup would likely occur after one more fight. “I’m calling the shots. I’m No. ​1​ right now. When I say answer the phone, answer the phone. I got the date.”

 

 

 

Charlo shot back. “This is easy money. I like those belts – they look real good on you. He said he wants another fight. I’m ready now.”

 

 

 

Hurd, who unified the WBA and IBF belts by beating WBA champion Erislandy Lara in April in Las Vegas, was returning with a surgically repair left shoulder. He threw 118 jabs, more than half of the 220 punches he threw in the fight.

 

 

 

“I’m just coming off surgery so I wanted to see how I worked off the jab,” Hurd said. “I felt good I was working behind the jab I got caught on the ropes and got caught with some shots and said ‘that’s enough. He got enough TV time.’ I heard the crowd and I didn’t want to get brave. So I turned it up and got the knockdown.​”​

 

 

 

Former Wilder foe and heavyweight southpaw Luis “The Real King Kong” Ortiz (30-1, 26 Ko) returned to STAPLES​ Center​ for a second consecutive victory with a resounding 10th-round TKO against Travis “My Time” Kauffman (32-3, 23 Ko) nan Lekti, PA.

 

 

 

The 39-year-old Ortiz of Camaguey, Kiba, registered left-cross knockdowns in the sixth, eighth and 10th rounds before the final blow coming later in the 10th round against a gritty Kauffman. It was the 26th career stoppage for Ortiz, who lost to Wilder in a Fight of the Year candidate back in March.

 

 

 

The fight was officially called at 1:58 of the 10th round. "Mwen se yon vanyan sòlda,” Ortiz said. “Nothing contains me. We didn’t have to knock him out but we wanted to show everything we have in our repertoire, and we showed it tonight.”

 

 

 

Ortiz, who was warned twice for low blows, clipped Kauffman for a second time by a lethal left hand of Ortiz at 2:29 nan wonn nan wityèm. But just like the first time he was send to canvas in the sixth round, Kauffman was able to get up and continue fighting.

 

 

 

The technically sound performance by Ortiz included 376 jab attempts to Kauffman’s 99 and out-landing him 66-7. That led to a 135-37 lead in total connects and a 69-30 margin in power connects against Kauffman, who SHOWTIME commentator Paulie Malignaggi called, “a stubborn guy who wouldn’t go away.”

 

 

 

“Of course I’ll fight the winner of this fight [Wilder-Fury],” Ortiz said. “I want that second fight with Wilder. I want to fight anybody.”

 

 

 

In the ​pay-per-view​ telecast opener, Joe “The Juggernaut” Joyce (7-0, 7 Ko) recorded a massive first-round knockout against Joe “The Future” Hanks (23-3, 15 Ko). A rising heavyweight, Joyce, nan Lond, Angletè, ended the fight officially after just 2:25 as he used a right jab to set up a near-perfect left hook sending Hanks to the canvas and down for the count.

 

 

 

Trained by noted trainer Abel Sanchez, Joyce told Gray he’s ready for anyone. “I want to get in some bigger fights,” said the former Olympic silver medal winner who recorded his fourth first-round KO. “I’ve been doing well so there is plenty more to come. All the support from back home in England, thanks for coming. I hope I put on something good to watch.”

 

 

 

It was the second win in the United States for Joyce, who also picked up the vacant WBA Continental heavyweight title. “I’m getting people out quickly,"Li te di. “I’ve got a lot of experience, I’m just going to improve on my strength and my speed. I’ve heard comments that I’m slow but I seem to land the shots and get the job done.”

 

 

 

It was the third time during his career that Hanks, from Newark, N.J., has been knocked down by a left hook.

 

 

 

Earlier in the night on SHOWTIME BOXING: SPECIAL EDITION Adonis Stevenson’s five-and-a-half year reign as the WBC Light Heavyweight Champion of the World ended as Oleksandr Gvozdyk dethroned boxing’s longest reigning champion with a devastating 11th round knockout from Videotron Center in Quebec City.

QUEBEC CITY (Desanm 1, 2018) – Adonis Stevenson’s five-and-a-half-year reign as the WBC Light Heavyweight Champion is over. Oleksandr Gvozdyk dethroned boxing’s longest reigning champion with a devastating 11th round knockout Saturday in Quebec City in a SHOWTIME BOXING: EDISYON ESPESYAL telecast that immediately preceded the Deontay Wilder vs. Tyson Fury SHOWTIME PPV.

 

 

 

Gvozdyk (16-0, 13 Ko) used a powerful multi-punch combination in the penultimate round to put the back-and-forth bout out of question. The former Olympic bronze medalist and amateur teammate of fellow Ukrainians Vasyl Lomachenko and Oleksandr Usyk was impressive throughout the entire fight. He executed trainer Teddy Atlas’ game plan to perfection and was the busier of the two fighters. Stevenson (29-2-1, 24 Ko), who was making his 10th defans tit, was able to land his signature left hand on several occasions, most notably in the tenth round, but never did enough to truly trouble his opponent.

 

 

 

“This win means everything to me. I’ve trained my whole life for this and tonight all of the hard work was worth it,” said Gvozdyk, who was the mandatory challenger for Stevenson. “Having Teddy [Atlas] in my corner was a huge help. He knew exactly what to say to me. We trained so well for this fight and I knew I was going to get the knockout.

 

 

 

“Adonis was a great champion but it’s my time now. He got me with a good shot in the 10th round but I handled it and finished him. Dwa koulye a, I just want to rest before I discuss my next step. I definitely want to stay at 175 liv. "

 

 

 

Stevenson was transported to a local hospital as precautionary measure and was unavailable for comment following the fight.

Salamov Defends Championships with Unanimous Decision over Ghana’s Anim in Sochi, Larisi

Kite yon kòmantè

Nan samdi, Desanm 1, at the Galaktika Culture Centre in Sochi, Larisi, Umar Salamov will defend his Eurasian Boxing Parliament and WBO International Light Heavyweight Championships when he faces once-beaten Emmanuel “Horse Power” Anim in an explosive 10-round showdown.

 

 

 

Salamov (22-1, 17 Ko), soti nan Alkhan-Kala, Larisi, is currently ranked WBC #10, WBA #13, IBF #7 and WBO #10 nan mond lan. Anim (13-1-1, 11 Ko), from Accra, Gana, is a former Ghanaian Super Middleweight and Light Heavyweight Champion. The fight will also be televised live in Russia on Match TV.

 

 

 

“I take every fight seriously,di Salamov. “My preparations have been excellent for this match. I scored a KO in all my wins this year and I’ll do it again on December 1.”

 

 

 

Salamov caught the boxing public’s eye in North America last June with a brutal one-punch knockout over respectable prospect Brian Howard. With top-10 rankings by every major sanctioning body, it’s a matter of time for the 24-year-old slugger.

 

 

 

“The light heavyweight division is one of the most talent-packed in boxing,” said Salamov’s promoter, Mo dmitriy. “Umar is one of the best in the world and with an impressive victory on December 1, he will be one step closer to reaching his goal of becoming a world champion.”

WBO #2 Espinoza Annihilates Vargas in Two Brutal Rounds

 

Mexico’s Ricardo “Hindu” Espinoza (21-2, 18 Ko) made the most of his Telemundo appearance in the main event of “Rumble at the Rock III,” tonight (Vandredi, Nov. 30), at Hard Rock Event Center at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Fla., by destroying previously undefeated Yeison Vargas (17-1, 12 Ko) of Colombia in two rounds

 

 

 

After an uneventful first round, Espinoza impressively opened up and dropped Vargas three times in the second. Nan pwosesis la, Espinoza, the streaking WBO #2 contender, picked up a TKO 2 and the WBO Latino Bantamweight Championship. Having never left his homeland for a fight before, Vargas seemed unprepared for the brutal power of Espinoza’s hooks and right hands. The time was 1:19.

 

 

 

In the 10-round welterweight co-main event, Puerto Rican prospect Derrieck Cuevas (19-0-1, 14 Ko) scored an impressive unanimous 10-round decision over Miami via Barranquilla, Colombia veteran Breidis “Khanqueror” Prescott (31-15, 22 Ko).

 

 

 

Cuevas is a wicked puncher. Prescott was down in round one from a thudding left hook and was saved by the bell from a quick KO loss. What followed over the next nine rounds was a clinic from the surprisingly elusive 24-year-old Cuevas on hitting, difisil, and not getting hit back.

 

 

 

Always a warrior, the battle-proven Prescott tried for the entire fight, but simply couldn’t reach Cuevas with anything consequential. Cuevas looks to have the goods to continue to climb the 147-lb ladder into contender status. The scores were not announced.

 

 

 

Popular Miami light heavyweight Ulysses Diaz (7-0, 6 Ko) was too much for Sonora, Mexico’s Fabian Valdez (3-5), as he stopped him in two rounds of a scheduled four. “The Monster” Diaz, a serious crowd favorite in South Florida, clubbed Valdez with his trademarked sledgehammers, sending the hapless Mexican reeling around the ring until the slaughter was mercifully waved off at 49 segonn. Valdez was down from a body shot in round one.

 

 

 

Miami lightweight Manuel Correa (3-0, 2 Ko) pounded out a brutal unanimous (40-36 x 3) four-round decision over Dustin Arnold (6-2, 1 Ko) of Coral Springs, Florida.

 

 

 

Lacking the power to get the relentlessly energized fists of Correa away from him, Arnold did well to survive the onslaught. His face didn’t feel so lucky though, as he was reduced to a bloody mask during the carnage. Correa is a pitbull worth having another look at. The normally capable Arnold will have to improve his power to compete with savagery of the type that fighters like Correa can generate.

 

 

 

Miami welterweight Livan Navarro (10-0, 6 Ko) scored an entertaining fourth-round knockout (54 segonn) over Colombian veteran Wilfrido Buelvas (19-11, 13 Ko). The pair of sluggers traded free-swinging haymakers throughout. Buelvas even looked to have hurt Navarro in the second, men, eventually, Navarro’s superior power took over and that was it for the Colombian from Barranquilla.

 

 

 

Buelvas went down twice in round three and twice more in round four, the final time for the full 10 konte.

 

 

 

In an eight-round super featherweight bout, former top-ranked veteran Mike “Machine Gun” Oliver (26-10-1, 8 Ko) of Hartford showed the ravages of time, as he flopped twice and quit in the first round against Miami’s undefeated featherweight Hairon “El Maja” Socarras (20-0-3, 12 Ko). What would have been an entertaining scrap a few years ago was more of a sad exhibition as Oliver dropped from the two punches he caught and elected to quit after the second “knockdown.” The time was 50 segonn.

 

 

 

All-action Miami featherweight Jessy Cruz (15-7-1, 6 Ko) continued his winning streak with a four-round beatdown of Mexican veteran Isaias Martin Cardona (25-15, 17 Ko). Cardona, a showboating type, was down in round, youn, three and four. After the fourth, saner heads prevailed, and he was prevented from coming out for the fifth. The official verdict was a TKO 5 (0:01).

 

 

 

Miami via Cuba’s hard-punching super middleweight Irosvani Duvergel (5-0, 3 Ko) stayed undefeated by making quick work of Miami’s Yendris Rodriguez Valdez (2-3, 2 Ko) by way of TKO 1 (1:46). The exciting Cuban was too strong for Valdez and after going down from a right hand, Valdez’s corner signaled their man’s surrender.

 

 

 

A four-round featherweight contest ended early when Puerto Rico’s Luis “Chucho” Melendez (3-1, 2 Ko) scored a TKO 2 (2:13) over debuting local Jonathan Conde. After a routine first round, Melendez had Conde down three times, the first with a counter left hook and then twice more with big right hands.

 

 

 

In the four-round heavyweight opener between two Miami-based sluggers, Hector “Ready for War” Hodge (3-3, 1 KO) spoiled the pro debut of Jairus Gladney (0-1) by knockout at 1:43 nan wonn de. The pair of big men traded wild shots until Hodge found pay dirt with a southpaw left hand, dropping Gladney. Gladney rose but was in no condition and another roundhouse left finished things.

 

 

 

“Rumble at the Rock III” was presented by Kris Lawrence and The Heavyweight Factory, in association with Tuto Zabala of All Star Boxing.

LOS ANGELES (Novanm 30, 2018) – One day before the most significant heavyweight event in the U.S. nan plis pase 15 ane, heavyweight legends have descended on Los Angeles to discuss the Deontay Wilder vs. Tyson Fury showdown that will be live on SHOWTIME PPV® Saturday night from STAPLES Center in an event presented by Premier Boxing Champions.

 

 

 

A media roundtable featured heavyweight greats Evandè Olifil, Lennox Lewis, Riddick Bowe, Gerry Cooney, Earnie razwar, Buster Douglas ak Michael Spinks as they broke down Saturday’s battle of unbeaten giants.

 

 

 

Biyè pou evènman an, ki ankouraje pa BombZquad Enterprises ak Queensberry Promotions, an asosyasyon ak TGB Promotions ak DiBella Entertainment, yo sou vant kounye a epi yo disponib atravè AXS.com. Wilder vs. Fury pral pwodwi ak distribye pa SHOWTIME PPV. Pri an detay sijere (SRP) pou teledifizyon ki peye pa gade se $64.99 pou definisyon estanda.

 

 

 

The roundtable was hosted by SHOWTIME Sports award-winning reporter Jim Gray from the Westin Bonaventure Hotel & Suites, Los Angeles. Here is what the heavyweight legends had to say Friday:

 

EVANDER HOLYFIELD

 

 

“I feel that Deontay Wilder will win because eventually he’ll land that right hand. He’s very patient. He’s a thinker, but he can also take chances. When people take chances, they win.

 

 

 

“Deontay might not have as much experience as we did in our day, but he’s got the power. That’s what the people want to see and I think they’re going to be happy when they see it.

 

 

 

“There was a point in time where every great heavyweight was from the United States. We had a very good amateur program. I was the last true heavyweight champion from the U.S. before Wilder and until I lost the decision against Lennox.

 

 

 

“To be the heavyweight champion of the world, and to say you’re the best, you have to fight any man.”

 

LENNOX LEWIS

 

 

 

“I think it’s going to be a great fight. Deontay Wilder has a terrific right hand and when it lands, not too many people can stand up to it. I also think that you can’t hurt what you can’t hit. Tyson Fury is not an easy person to hit. He has great ability and movement. I’m going with Deontay early or Fury late.

 

 

 

“We all know how it feels to lose the heavyweight championship. We know how hard it is to gain it back. Fury has lost it, and now he wants it back. I can see now that he’s sacrificing and saying to himself that he shouldn’t have lost it, and now he has to regain it.

 

 

 

“I think the view in the U.K. is that Tyson Fury is the man that stepped up. The gauntlet was thrown out there and he stood up for Britain. Deontay came to England to challenge Anthony Joshua, but it was Tyson Fury who answered the call.

 

 

 

“I would say that there are a couple of meccas in boxing that are places where everyone wants to fight. Las Vegas, New York and of course, Los Angeles. My fight against Vitali Klitschko at STAPLES Center was a great fight. My plan that night was not to box to go the distance, I boxed to go a short distance and it did.”

 

RIDDICK BOWE

 

 

 

“I’m going with Deontay Wilder tomorrow night. He’s going to put on a great show for everyone and get another knockout.

 

 

 

“Tyson Fury is skilled and tall, men m ', he doesn’t do enough on offense. He moves but he doesn’t move his hands enough.”

 

GERRY COONEY

 

 

 

“I think it’s a great fight tomorrow night. We know that Fury is coming back motivated. If Wilder finds a home for that right, he’s going to take Fury out. I think he’s going to connect at some point during the fight.

 

 

 

“I think Tyson Fury is a great man for how far he’s come back in his life and for standing up to Deontay Wilder. Fury called him out, so maybe he knows something we don’t know.

 

 

 

“I’m so glad to be up here. Look at all these great heavyweights and great guys. It’s special and they’re all here to watch this fight tomorrow night.”

 

EARNIE SHAVERS

 

 

 

“Me and Deontay are both from Alabama. I’ll be inducted into the Alabama Sports Hall of Fame soon and Deontay will be there one day as well. Deontay is a great puncher and I’m pulling for him tomorrow night.

 

 

 

“I fought in a great era. If you fight guys on the same level, you’ll get good fights. These guys today could get in there in our day and put on a good show.”

 

BUSTER DOUGLAS

 

 

 

“I think this is going to be a good competitive fight. If I had to pick, I’d take Deontay Wilder by knockout in the eighth round.

 

 

 

“I feel like Tyson Fury has already won by battling back and getting into great shape and being in this position. I’m sure many people thought they’d never see him back here. That’s a victory in itself.

 

 

 

“My victory over Mike Tyson changed my life in a great way. I was now the heavyweight champion of the world. My dream had come true. Seeing my two youngest kids being born was the only thing that could top it.”

 

MICHAEL SPINKS

 

 

“Se pou nonm sa a pi bon pou genyen. I don’t know who’s in the best of shape but I think Fury being out of the ring makes me lean toward Deontay Wilder. If Fury is as big in person as they say he is, he’s got a great chance.

 

 

“If you’re the underdog, you just have to go on what you know and what you’ve worked on. You can’t pay attention to the doubters. You focus on what you’ve prepared yourself for and give it your all. I always saw myself winning. It’s the greatest feeling to come out of the ring victorious.”

Men sa patisipan konferans pou laprès yo te di Jedi soti nan Westin Bonaventure Hotel & Swit Los Angeles:
JARRETT HURD
“Tout sa ekip mwen an ak mwen te pale sou yo rive fèt. Mwen isit la kòm ko-prensipal nan yon kat masiv epi mwen jis vrèman apresye tout moun ki te kwè nan mwen epi ki te ede pouse m 'nan moman sa a..
“Samdi swa mwen vle montre adaptabilite mwen. Tout moun te wè ke mwen elèktrize. Mwen pote aksyon an. Men, mwen vle montre ke mwen rapid e mwen gen defans. Mwen konnen ki jan yo sèvi ak wotè mwen ak ranje. Mwen toujou pral pote aksyon an nan Samdi, kidonk ou dwe asire w ke ou branche-nan.
“Nou pa panse de Welborn kòm yon batay melodi. Jason Welborn se yon chanpyon Britanik pou yon rezon. Nou jis vle ale deyò epi etabli plan jwèt nou te travay sou nan kan an.
“Mwen vle montre bò defansiv mwen an epi montre ke mwen ka bwat epi deplase. Mwen vle montre ke mwen pa bezwen jis kontinye vini pi devan. Mwen pral kapab fè sa epi kòmanse kraze l 'epi fè l' soti nan la.
“Tout moun wè konpòtman mwen, epi yo konnen ke mwen pote sa nan bag la. Kondisyon mwen se pi gwo atribi mwen. Pa gen pwoblèm sa yon moun di, Mwen toujou pral mwen.
“Mwen se nimewo en nan divizyon an e bagay yo pral jwe jan mwen vle yo. Nou te gen twa kan difisil fòmasyon pou sid. Lè mwen finalman goumen (chanpyon WBC) Jermell Charlo, Mwen pral pare paske nan tout travay sou adaptabilite mwen ak defans mwen. Mwen pral pare pou Jermell Charlo.
“Mwen vle vin yon chanpyon aktif paske mwen pa t gen anpil batay amatè. Mwen bezwen rete nan ring la epi jwenn tout eksperyans mwen kapab. Mwen vle jwenn bon batay sa yo pandan ke mwen toujou jèn ak an sante.
“Mwen tounen soti nan operasyon mwen an epi nou pral tounen nan ansyen Jarrett Hurd la. Mwen pral montre tout moun tout sa mwen kapab fè. Tout moun konnen ke toujou ap gen aksyon. Li pral yon batay bèl bagay sou yon kat bèl bagay. Pa bat je pandan yon sèl sa a.”
JASON WELBORN
“Sa a se yon rèv ki vin reyalite yo dwe isit la jodi a. Hurd te travay wout li jiska rive isit la menm jan mwen te fè. Dwa koulye a, li nan wout mwen. Mwen espere tout moun jwi sa mwen pote sou tab la samdi swa.
“Mwen gen kwayans ke mwen fèt ak elve pou jwèt sa a epi mwen pral montre li nan lemonn antye nan Samdi swa.. Mwen toujou pwouve moun yo mal.
“De dènye ane yo mwen te vin pi bon an nan Grann Bretay ak bat tout moun yo mete devan m '. Lè moun gen dout mwen, Mwen antrene menm pi rèd. Mwen vin genyen e mwen pa gen anyen pou m pèdi.
“Mwen dwe jwenn sa mwen merite epi mwen pral fè li nan Samdi swa. Mwen te deja pase nan tanpèt la. Li gen sa mwen vle.
“Mwen dwe jwi batay la epi jwenn sa mwen vle. Li ka gade pase m 'tou sa li vle, men yon fwa li santi sa mwen pote sou tab la, nou pral wè ki jan li reyaji. Mwen pare pou tou sa li pral pote sou tab la.”
LUIS ORTIZ
“Mwen vle remèsye tout moun ki te ede m jwenn opòtinite sa a. Mwen renmen fè m pale nan bag la, men mwen kontan ke Travis Kauffman te monte. Anpil pwa lou pa fè sa e mwen byen kontan nou ka fè batay sa a rive.
“Mwen vin fè travay mwen. Sa a se yon batay pwa lou epi nou konnen sa vle di yon sèl kout pyen ka chanje tout bagay. Li pa pral fini byen pou Travis nan Samdi swa.
“Gen 10 tou pou fè travay la, ak twa minit pou chak wonn. Mwen pral fè travay mwen. Travay la se chache ak detwi. Se konsa, mwen espere ke Travis trè prepare pou bay fanatik yo yon gwo show. Samdi swa ou pral wè 'King Kong’ nan bag la.
“Mwen te pouse tèt mwen menm pi rèd pase tout tan nan kan fòmasyon. Nou ap rete soude ak menm plan jwèt la nan fanmi an premye e mwen kwè ke mwen pral jwenn rekonpans. Pitit gason mwen an ki gen senkan fè m sonje ke mwen gen yon pèt e sa motive m pou m antrene pi rèd ak pi rèd..
“Mwen espere ke Travis gen gwo konfyans li montre. Se yon gwo chans pou li e mwen sèten li pral motive. Mwen motive pou chak batay, paske se pa sèlman sou advèsè mwen an. Objektif mwen se bay fanmi mwen ak Travis se nan chemen an. Mwen pa janm dekouraje nan mantalite sa a epi li te fè m 'pare pou Samdi swa.”
TRAVIS KAUFFMAN
“Mwen remèsye Luis Ortiz paske li te pran batay sa a. Tout moun pè goumen ak li, men mwen pa pè pèsonn. Nou tout konnen ke Luis Ortiz ka kout pwen, men mwen pa okipe anyen nan sa. Se tan mwen. Mwen soti nan yon background ki graj epi mwen pa pral fè bak.
“Sa a se tan mwen. Pa gen anyen ki pral anpeche m pran nèg sa a desann. Li tèlman enkyete sou Deontay Wilder, men li dwe enkyete pou mwen anvan li jwenn nenpòt revanch.
“Ou ka pa konnen ki moun mwen ye kounye a, men ou pral apre samdi swa. Mwen pral asire w ke moun sonje non mwen.
“Luis Ortiz trè konpetan, men si ou vle vin pi bon an ou oblije goumen pi bon an. Pa gen moun ki aktyèlman vle monte epi pran batay sa a, men mwen vrèman kwè sa a se tan mwen an. Mwen pote yon ti chalè nan bag la epi mwen vin goumen chak fwa.”
JOE JOYCE
“Mwen kontan pou mwen sou kat masiv sa a. Mwen pral bay lemonn antye yon trete kòm yon pati nan yon gwo evènman. Ou dwe branche epi gade m kòmanse emisyon an dwa samdi swa.
“Fòmasyon nan Big Bear te yon anviwònman pafè pou mwen. Li nan mòn yo, li gen altitid la epi li izole. Mwen te wè sa ki ale nan kan fòmasyon yo ak travay ansanm ak pi bon nan mond lan. Yo te ede m enstale kalite style ki pral fè m nan pi bon an.
“Mwen gen jeneyalojik Olympic, men kounye a li sou avanse fòs brital la ak reyèlman jwenn menen an pafè sou vaksen mwen yo.
“Sparring kont Tyson Fury te vrèman travay wo nivo. Mwen konnen ke li te fè m 'yon pi bon avyon de gè. Li ap gade anfòm ak fò epi li montre lè w ap nan bag la avè l '.
“Sa a se yon gwo opòtinite. Abel Sanchez te fè yon travay fòmidab pou prepare m pou pozisyon sa a. Mwen kontan montre tout moun konpetans mwen ak tout sa mwen te aprann.
“Mwen byen kontan ke Joe Hanks deside pran batay sa a. Mwen pa ka tann lase gan yo epi kòmanse fèt la. Mwen pral kenbe streak knockout mwen ale epi mwen garanti li pral enteresan”
JOE HANKS
“Li fè yon bon bout tan vini pou moman sa a. Mwen rekonesan ak ekip mwen an e mwen kontan pou m sou kat sa a ak lòt gwo pwa loud. Li se yon bon moman yo dwe yon pwa loud. Mwen pare pou m mete non mwen nan bag la pou m gen chans pou m vrèman fè yon bagay espesyal ak yon gwo pèfòmans samdi.
“Travay la fin fèt. Mwen te fè tout sa mwen te oblije fè. Mwen te fè plis pase mwen te fè prepare pou batay sot pase yo. Lè w pèrdan an pa vle di anpil pou mwen. Mwen soti Newark, New Jersey, epi nou tout moun ki pa gen anyen la a.
“Mwen te mete tan nan epi mwen te gen tout moun sipòte m 'ak pouse m' e mwen panse ke li pral fè m 'sou bos la. Mwen jis vrèman eksite pou m antre la.”
STEPHEN Espinoza, Prezidan Espò & Programmation evènman, Chotim Networks Inc.
“Lè nou pale de Jarrett Hurd, li se yon avyon de gè ki sanble soti nan okenn kote e li te gen yon ogmantasyon ekstrèmman rapid nan tèt la.. Li pa t 'yon amatè dekore. Li te aprann nan travay la. Tout sa li te fè depi li te bat Oscar Molina nan 2016 se enpresyone. Yo rekonèt li kòm youn nan jèn zetwal klere nan boksè. Li te koupe akòz aksidan ak sètènman te kapab pran yon batay pi fasil pase Jason Welborn, ki se yon chanpyon Britanik Commonwealth. Nou ap tann yon batay aksyon la.
“Luis Ortiz se youn nan pi gwo pwa loud nan mond lan. Li gen yon sèl defo sou dosye li otreman pafè, yon pèt devan Deontay Wilder. Petèt Ortiz te jis kèk segonn lwen viktwa. Nou pale sou yon maj mens nan batay, sa ki te pi mens nan maj. Mwen panse ke li pral eseye fè yon deklarasyon sou undercard la ke li merite yon revanch kont Deontay Wilder.. Kanpe nan wout li pral Travis Kauffman. Sa a se yon lòt batay tout-aksyon plen ak gwo pwenson.
“Nan bout ouvèti nou an, nou gen youn nan ki pi pale-sou k ap monte jenn pwa loud nan espò a – Joe Joyce, ki ap pran sou yon veteran difisil nan Joe Hanks. Kòm nou konnen, divizyon pwa lou an te konsantre plis nan dènye sis a nèf mwa yo pase nou te wè nan dènye dekad yo.. Joe Joyce se nan tèt lis la sou potansyèl pwochen vag zetwal nan lavni. Li sètènman pa gaspiye nenpòt ki tan pran sou yon avyon de gè nan Joe Hanks’ kalib.
“Lè ou gade nan kat la an jeneral, ou te gen kèk nan pi gwo punchers nan boksè. Mwen pa ta sezi si nou wè plizyè knockouts sou kat sa a. Pa rate aksyon an.”

Men sa Stevenson, Gvozdyk ak antrenè respektif yo te oblije di Jedi nan Chateau Bonne Entente nan Quebec City:

 

Adonis Stevenson:

 

 

 

"Samdi se yon gwo batay. Mwen pa souzèstime Gvozdyk. Mwen konnen li se yon bon konbatan e li grangou. Li te antrene trè difisil pou jwenn tit mwen an. Men, tout moun ki vin lakay mwen nan Kanada toujou vle tit mwen an, men li pa janm rive epi li pa pral rive kounye a.

 

 

 

"Mwen ap chèche pou knockout la. Sa a se jis mantalite mwen ak fason ke mwen antrene. Sugar [Hill Steward] fòme m pou m panse konsa men m ka ale tou 12 jij, se pa yon pwoblèm. Mwen konnen ke si li fè yon erè, Mwen pral kenbe l. Li gen sèlman glise moute yon fwa nan 12 jij. Yon erè, yon kout pwen. Se tout sa li pral pran. Mwen pare. Mwen konnen mwen ka kout pyen epi li la 12 jij. Mwen jis bezwen yon kout pwen. Jis youn. Mwen pral kenbe l 'epi lannwit lan pral fini.

 

 

 

"Mwen te pouse tèt mwen nan fòmasyon epi mwen pral fè yon lòt gwo pèfòmans vini samdi epi mwen pral defann tit mwen yon lòt fwa ankò.. Nan pawòl ansyen antrenè mwen an, Emanuel Steward, 'Knockouts vann’ e se sa mwen pral pou nan batay sa a. Mwen konnen mwen ap fè fas a yon bon boksè ki ap vini nan trè detèmine. Li pral pare, men li pap ase. Devni selèb nan bilding lan!"

 

OLEKSANDR GVOZDYK:

 

 

"Mwen kontan finalman isit la. Mwen trè eksitan. Mwen vle remèsye Top Rank ak GYM Promotions pou finalman fè sa rive. Mwen respekte Adonis Stevenson kòm yon konbatan, li se yon gwo chanpyon. Men mwen pare poum aksepte defi sa e samdi swa ap gen yon nouvo chanpyon.

 

 

 

"Mwen gen youn nan pi gwo antrenè nan istwa boksè, kidonk mwen gen anpil konfyans. Nou gen yon bon estrateji. Nou te gen yon kan fòmasyon ekselan e mwen pare. Adonis se yon gwo konbatan. Li se yon vandè danjere e sa a se yon etap reyèl pou mwen men li lè mwen.

 

 

 

"Moun yo toujou mande sou laj Stevenson men George Foreman ak Bernard Hopkins te fè yon wo nivo lè yo te gen 50 an.. Li vrèman jis depann sou ki jan ou kenbe kò ou, kondisyon lavi ou, ki jan ou manje ak ki jan ou antrene.

 

 

 

"Mwen pa enkyete w pou sa boukmèyker yo di. Li pa vle di anyen ke yo panse mwen se pi renmen an. Mwen eseye rete konsantre sou bagay mwen bezwen konsantre sou yo, pa sa boukmèyker yo panse. Plis batay sa a ale, se pi bon chans mwen yo. Wotè mwen, mouvman mwen ak pasyans mwen pral genyen batay sa a pou mwen.”

 

SUGAR HILL STEWARD, Fòmatè STEVENSON

 

 

 

"Mwen kontan isit la yon lòt fwa ankò. Sa a se tankou yon dezyèm kay pou Adonis. Batay sa a se jis pral regilye Adonis. Adonis vle jwenn yon knockout. Mwen renmen debouchur. Men ki jan nou antrene pou chak batay. Li pa manke respè pou okenn konbatan, men sa se jis mantalite ke nou genyen. Adonis ak mwen pa kwè nan kite li nan men jij yo e sa te travay jiskaprezan.. Nou pral kontinye fè sa nou te fè."

 

 

 

“Adonis te antrene tout lavi l pou yon bagay konsa. Sa a se yon gwo batay chanpyona mondyal kont yon ansyen zolenpik. Byenveni nan gwo boksè, sa a se sa li ye tout sou. Vin Desanm 1, Adonis Stevenson pral jwenn yon lòt KO.”

 

TEDDY ATLAS, Fòmatè GVOZDYK

 

 

"Nou te konnen ke sa a ta dwe yon batay trè difisil men sa nou pa t 'konnen se ki jan difisil li ta dwe rive isit la.. Pati sa a nan batay la fini, Erezman. Nou te pase uit semèn nan Kalifòni prepare pou bout sa a. Preparasyon pou yon chanpyon fòmidab. Mwen pa bezwen pale sou konbyen tan li te yon chanpyon, rèy li, eksperyans li, ki jan talan ak danjere li se kòm yon puncher. Mwen kwè ke li se pi bon oswa dezyèm pi bon pwen nan boksè jodi a. Se swa li oswa [Deontay] Wilder, tou sa ou chwazi.

 

 

 

"Stevenson gen tout kalite yon gwo konbatan bezwen. Li gen yon gwo kè, li te desann kanva a epi li te montre kè fòmidab an reta nan batay Badou Jack la. Sa a se byen yon travay ki nan devan nou. Nou konprann sa. Bon nouvèl la se ke nou konnen egzakteman sa n ap fè fas ak nou te prepare uit dènye semèn yo pou sa.. Nou pa neglije anyen. Mwen pa gen dout ke byenke nou gen yon defi trè apik devan nou, ke nan Samdi swa nou pral gen yon nouvo chanpyon limyè lou nan mond lan."
