BRANDON RIOS
“I’m training really hard and I’m ready to get back in the ring. My weight is perfect right now and I’m just ready to give the fans a great show.
“This is the kind of fight that I asked for because I know that beating a guy like Danny Garcia will mean a lot to my career and put me on the fast track to accomplish my goals.
“Danny has a lot of power on his hook. He throws it hard and is accurate. We’ve worked hard to prepare for this moment and I’m excited.
“Having Robert Garcia here makes me much happier in training. I love the instructions from him and Donald Leary, and I love having them as my corner. Sparring the young guys in Robert’s gym really has helped me. Those guys are hungry and always pushing to prove themselves. I have to keep elevating my game.
“As long as I beat Danny Garcia, I know that it puts me back to the top of this division. I’m here again and I’m doing it right this time. I want to make the most of this part of my career. I don’t want to ever wonder ”what if?'”
“Jeg har tænkt mig at vinde. That’s my mentality. I’m going into this fight with that same hunger and drive to never be defeated. I’m going to do whatever I have to do to win this fight.
“We’re expecting to fight the best version of Danny Garcia. I know he had his first loss and wants his title back, so he’ll be prepared. I think we’re going to give the fans a great show.
“I feel rejuvenated and more mature than ever before. I’ve already been to the top. I just want to do things right this time so I can get back up there and stay there. I’m taking this camp very seriously to be at my best on February 17. I’m going to go out there and execute the game plan.
“We’re going to give 150 tickets to first responders of the Las Vegas incident last year and it means a lot to me and my whole team. Those men and women work very hard and put their lives on the line to protect us all around the world. It means a lot to me for them to come to this show.”
ROBERT GARCIA, Rios’ Trainer
“For this fight Brandon has been so motivated and training so hard. He’s very close to weight already and we’ve had more than enough rounds of sparring.
“Brandon is like my little brother and he’s definitely part of the family. I’ve always been in touch with him even when I wasn’t training him. When we agreed to team up again, the promise was that he had to stay healthy and train hard and show us that he wants to be champion again. Since that day, he’s been on a mission. He’s doing it the right way.
“Danny Garcia is a great two-division world champion. We expect him to be confident and I’m sure he’s training hard to get a good win. Brandon is going to be motivated to give everyone a great fight. His mind set is to go out and beat Danny Garcia and that’s what he’s going to do.
“Brandon is training hard to do what people don’t believe he can do. His confidence is like never before. I see the same Brandon that we’ve seen in the best moments of his career.”

“Jeg følte jeg kæmpede en god kamp mod Thurman. Han vidste ikke rigtig engagere. Jeg tænkte efter fjerde runde blev han dybest set skyggeboksning. Jeg bebrejder ikke ham, fordi du er nødt til at være dum at stå foran mig. Vi vil foretage nogle justeringer og tilføje til det, jeg allerede gør godt.
“Jeg er ikke blevet tilbudt Shawn Porter kampen, men jeg tror, ​​det ville være en stor kamp. Han kan lide at komme frem, og jeg er en stor bokser og tæller-puncher. Jeg tror fans ville elske det, men Shawn Porter bør være forsigtig med, hvad han ønsker for.”

“Jeg føler, at jeg vandt den første kamp klart. Gavril tror, ​​han kommer til at komme og slå mig ud nu, men hvis han har så meget tillid, han skulle have gjort det i den første kamp. Jeg træner ekstremt hårdt lige nu at gå derind og rive ham op.
“Strategien for denne kamp vil være en lille smule anderledes. Vi har nogle ting, som vi planlægger. Men det er stadig vil være en krig, fordi jeg ønsker at være en fan venlig fighter. Jeg håber at stjæle showet.
“Jeg er den mester, så jeg føler, at jeg er i stand til at gøre nogle store kampe i den nærmeste fremtid. Jeg ønsker vinderen af ​​World Boxing Super Series 168-pund turnering. Jeg er beæret over at være i samme kolonne som de andre mestre og jeg kan ikke vente med at komme i ringen med dem.

LAS VEGAS (December 21, 2017) – To-division verdensmester Danny “Swift” Garcia vender tilbage til ringen for at tage på den tidligere verdensmester Brandon “Bam Bam” Rios i en weltervægt opgør på Lørdag, Februar 17 lever videre SHOWTIME på Mandalay Bay Events Center i Las Vegas og præsenteret af Premier Boxing Champions.
I co-feature, boksning yngste verdensmester David “The Red Flag” Benavidez will defend his Super Middleweight World Championship for the first time against Ronald Gavril in a rematch of their thrilling September 2017 bout in which Benavidez won the vacant title by split decision.
The card is promoted by Mayweather Promotions and TGB Promotions in association with DSG Promotions. The Benavidez-Gavril rematch is co-promoted by Sampson Boxing. Tickets for the live event go on sale Lørdag, December. 23 på 10 a.m. PST and will be available at AXS.com.
“I’m excited just to get back in the ring,” Said Garcia, who was reigning world champion for the better part of six years dating back to his win over Hall of Famer Erik Morales in 2012 til marts 2017. “I needed the time off to recuperate and let my body heal.”
Garcia (33-1, 19 KOS) was a unified world champion at super lightweight and welterweight and has fought and defeated many of the most formidable opponents in both divisions spanning two generations-Morales, Zab Judah, Kendall Holt, Amir Khan, Lucas Matthysse, Paulie Malignaggi and Lamont Peterson among them. Four of his five opponents in the welterweight division were world champions and 10 af hans sidste 14 opponents were world champions or former world champions.
“I was the reigning champion for six years, so I needed the rest,” continued the 29-year old Philadelphia fighter. “I’m ready to kick off the year in style and take over the welterweight division.”
I sin sidste kamp, a welterweight clash of world title holders, Garcia lost via split decision to now unified 147-pound world champion Keith Thurman in a hard-fought, exciting fight that aired live on CBS. The SHOWTIME BOXING on CBS broadcast drew the biggest boxing audience of the year, mere end fem millioner seere, der fortsat den største publikum at være vidne til et primetime boksning udsendelse siden 1998.
Nu, Garcia ser ud til at genetablere sin engang dominerende stilling på weltervægt, en division, der kan prale flere top-10 pund-for-pund krigere i sporten end nogen anden vægtklasse; krigere herunder verdensmestre Errol Spence Jr., Thurman, Shawn Porter, Kell Brook, Lamont Peterson og mere.
“Det interessante i denne kamp med Brandon Rios er vores stilarter. Vi begge gerne komme frem. Denne form for matchup vil bringe det bedste frem i os begge. Jeg er spændt på at være tilbage i Las Vegas. Jeg har haft nogle af mine bedste præstationer, og nogle af mine største kampe der. Jeg slog Lucas Matthysse og Amir Khan i Vegas. Du kæmper i Las Vegas, du er en superstjerne,” tilføjet Garcia.
Ligesom Garcia, Rios har kæmpet mange af de øverste weltervægt i denne æra, herunder verdensmestre Timothy Bradley og Manny Pacquiao. Den benhård Slugger fra Oxnard, Calif., har 34 vinder, 25 af knockout. Den 31-årige Rios kommer altid parat til at kæmpe. Med en aggressiv stil og granit hage, han er en af ​​de mest underholdende boksere i sporten. I sin sidste kamp scorede han en TKO sejr over Aaron Herrera på Juni 11. En sejr over Garcia, en top-10 weltervægt i sin egen ret, ville straks ændre løbet af Rios’ karriere og krav om, at han skal placeres blandt de top-rangerede i divisionen.
“Jeg er spændt på at bevise mine kritikere galt igen,” Said Rios. “Jeg bringe en ’Bam Bam’ Rios slugfest til mine fans. Danny er en stor fighter, but I will beat him just like I have beat others in the past. I am focused and will make this a classic Mexican-Puerto Rican battle!”
“SHOWTIME is poised to start the year with two crucial welterweight main event matchups,” sagde Stephen Espinoza, Executive Vice President og General Manager for SHOWTIME Sports®. “Following the January 20th event pitting Errol Spence Jr. vs. Lamont Peterson, Garcia vs. Rios features two of the most battle-tested and ferocious 147-pound fighters in the world. Add in the Benavidez vs. Gavril II co-feature, a fight that is guaranteed to deliver dramatic action, and we are picking up right where we left off in 2017 delivering the most compelling and important matchups in boxing’s deepest divisions.”
“We’re looking forward to the action at Mandalay Bay Events Center in February,” Said Leonard Ellerbe, CEO Mayweather Promotions. “Both Garcia and Rios are seasoned fighters that have faced the toughest competition in the welterweight division and they are both very hungry for a big win. Den co-funktionen omkamp mellem den yngste regerende verdensmester David Benavidez og udfordrer Ronald Gavril vi allerede ved vil være spændende. Alle fire af disse mænd har bevist, at de vil sætte det hele på spil i bokseringen at efterlader ingen tvivl om, hvem den bedre manden er. Desuden, Vi arbejder på en crowd-glædeligt undercard nu. Alle på dette kort skal medbringe deres ’Et spil’ to Las Vegas in order to be victorious on Februar 17.”
“Danny Garcia er en af ​​de mest kamp-testet, dygtige boksere i sporten. What he did in running through the 140-pound division before moving up to welterweight is simply amazing,” sagde Tom Brown, Formand for TGB Promotions. “‘Bam Bam’ Rios is a throwback warrior. He never met a fight that he backed down from. Putting Garcia and Rios into the ring against each other promises nothing but fireworks in a match that should provide maximum entertainment for fans. It’s the kind of fight that belongs in Las Vegas, a classic battle that harkens to welterweight wars of the past. The first match between Benavidez and Gavril left enough room for doubt that a rematch should settle any remaining questions. I’d expect both boxers to come in with something to prove and that translates into a fan-friendly match.”
The 21-year-old Benavidez (19-0, 17 KOS) became the youngest reigning world champion in boxing and the youngest 168-pound champion in history at 20-years, ni måneder gammel, da han scorede et split beslutning mod Gavril at vinde super mellemvægt titel på September 8. Den kamp featured flere gynger af momentum, spændende udvekslinger og en vild 12th omgang. Benavidez og Gavril skubbede hinanden for at levere den bedste ydeevne af deres respektive karrierer hidtil.
“Jeg føler, at jeg vandt kampen,” sagde Gavril umiddelbart efter beslutningen. “Jeg dominerede tempoet. Jeg kan ikke sige noget andet… Det eneste jeg kan gøre er at bede om en omkamp.”
På Februar 17, Gavril vil få det.
“Ingen undskyldninger denne gang,” sagde Sampson Lewkowicz af Sampson Boxing. “I det øjeblik Benavidez færdig kampen jeg anmodede om omkamp-på vegne af vinderen-alene af den grund, at han havde brug for at vinde ved eftertrykkeligt og ikke opdelt beslutning. Jeg ønskede offentligheden at være i stand til at have den omkamp, ​​så alle vil vide, hvem den bedste er. Jeg forventer denne gang Gavril vil sige, at han virkelig er blevet slået. Som den yngste regerende mester i sporten i dag, Jeg ønsker ikke i tvivl om, at Benavidez er det bedre menneske. It was a great fight the first time and this time we’ll see who the best truly is. Ingen undskyldninger. No doubt.”
Kæmper ud af Phoenix, Ariz., Benavidez had scored 10 straight knockouts leading up to the match against Gavril. His eight-round KO victory over Rogelio Medina put him position for the vacant title.
“This is a fight that my father, my team and I decided to take again to show everybody that I’m really the champion and there’s more to me than just being the youngest world champion,” Benavidez said. “I feel like I’m the better fighter and I’m going to definitely show it this time. I learned from that first fight that he puts on a lot of pressure. He likes to throw at the same time that I’m throwing. There are a couple different approaches to take against that. It’s going to be a great night of fights. Danny Garcia and ‘Bam Bam’ Rios, these are two fighters I look up to in the sport and it’s an honor to fight in their undercard. My training has been going well. We decided to bring in a strength and conditioning coach and I feel really strong. I believe I’ll be very prepared.”
Gavril (18-2, 14 KOS) rose rapidly through the ranks by scoring seven straight victories including four by knockout since 2015. The 31-year-old Gavril was born in Bacau, Romania and now lives and fights out of Las Vegas. He fought a brilliant match against Benavidez, seizing control in the middle rounds and even dropping the young contender in the 12th with less than a minute left in the fight. I sidste ende, it wasn’t enough as Gavril lost on two of the three judges’ scorecards.
“I can’t wait to get into the ring again and take that belt,” said Gavril. “I learned his game plan quickly during the first fight, I blocked it well then, and I plan to do the same again. He has fast hands and power, I won’t take that from him, but I am prepared for whatever plan he comes in the ring with. I know I have what it takes to win this time. Preparing for this fight the second time around has been different, training has been more intense, and my team is preparing me to take him out once and for all. I can’t let him win. Some people said I won back in September, and were surprised by my performance. I thought it was close, and I thought the knock down gave me the advantage to win. All I can do is be ready. I don’t think either of us will upset the fans on fight night. I want to thank Floyd Mayweather and Leonard for another opportunity against Benavidez. He’s a great fighter and tough competitor and this will certainly be a great fight.”

LANCASTER, F.EKS. (Juni 12, 2017) – Tidligere verdensmester Brandon Rios (34-3-1, 24 KOS) returned to the ring with a seventh round TKO of Mexico’s Aaron Herrera (23-7-1, 14 KOS) i de vigtigste tilfælde af Premier Boxing Champions på FS1 og FOX Sports Søndagnight from The Pioneer Event Center in Lancaster, California.
“I had that good nervous feeling tonight, like before my pro debut,” Said Rios. “I was a little jittery but it felt good in there.”
In his first fight i 19 måneder, Rios showed off his signature exciting style in breaking down the very game Herrera before stopping him late in their welterweight contest. Rios controlled the action from the outset as he showed off his strong inside game while tagging Herrera with hooks and uppercuts.
Herrera received a fair deal of punishment across the early rounds but remained competitive in consistently throwing back against the aggressive Rios, who was able to parry some of Herrera’s shots with effective head movement. Herrera had his best round in the fourth when he changed the tides momentarily by being more active than Rios.
“I’m always ready for whoever they put in front of me,” Said Rios. “He was tough and he was swinging hard. I had to be careful and couldn’t go in there crazy. He caught me sometimes but that’s part of the sport.”
The shift did not last long as Rios ramped the pressure back up and began to slow Herrera down with increased body work. Herrera kept fighting back but was clearly tiring late in the sixth round as Rios teed off on him against the ropes with big power punches.
“Next time I get in there I’ll be better,” Said Rios. “You’ll see more progress each time I get out there. I still have my same style but I’m adding some more athleticism and head movement to it. I felt like I did well in there.”
The attack continued in the seventh round as Rios stalked Herrera towards the ropes before eventually delivering the pinpoint right hook to the body that put Herrera on the mat. Herrera was unable to beat the count and Rios returned to the win column with a stoppage victory2:11 i den runde.
“This is a new beginning and a new chapter in the book that I’m writing,” Said Rios. “We’re ready to move forward from here. I’m ready for the next challenge.”
The co-main event of the telecast saw unbeaten Mario Barrios (19-0, 11 KOS) score a sensational knockout of Jose Luis Rodriguez (23-9-1, 13 KOS) with left hook to the body that ended their super lightweight battle in the seventh round.
“I knew that he was going to fight the whole time,” Said Barrios. “He was going to stay coming in and I had to keep my distance. I stunned him with an overhand and then I found him on the liver.”
Barrios was impressive from the start, using his length to pick off his opponent with powerful uppercuts in the opening minutes of the bout. Despite taking numerous clean power shots from Barrios throughout the battle, Rodriguez never stopped attacking and was able to occasionally frustrate Barrios with his relentless physicality.
The bout was eventually defined by the powerful body shots that Barrios dedicated himself to delivering throughout the fight. The consistent effort clearly slowed Rodriguez, who took more and more clean punches as the fight went on.
Early in round seven Barrios’ attack finally wore Rodriguez down as a series of punches culminating with the left to the body put Rodriguez on the canvas. Referee Zac Young quickly called off the bout 37 seconds into the round to give Barrios his third straight knockout victory.
“I want to fight everyone in the 140-pound weight class,” Said Barrios. “I’m going to take it one fight at a time and work my way up to a world title shot.”
Ved indledningen anfald af telecast, stigende udsigten Billede af Jose Miguel Borrego (12-0,11 KOS) remained unbeaten with a fourth-round stoppage of Kevin Watts (11-2, 4 KOS) in their super lightweight matchup.
Watts was the more aggressive fighter in round one, controlling the action with his jab as Borrego switched stances but threw few punches. Watts continued to have success in round two sticking Borrego with power shots while avoiding the returning punches Borrego threw back.
The third round saw Borrego begin to break through the guard of Watts with powerful left hooks, which seemed to slow the movement of the previously once-beaten Watts, who began to stand and exchange more with his opponent. As the action heated up in round four, Borrego connected with a massive left hook that stunned and bloodied Watts’ right eye.

Borrego kept up the attack and eventually sent Watts to the canvas with another left hand over two minutes into the round. While Watts returned to his feet, Borrego quickly cornered him and delivered another flurry that forced referee Jack Reiss to halt the bout 2:42 i den runde.

Here is what Barrios had to say about training camp, his matchup and more:
On fighting Jose Luis Rodriguez:
“Desværre, in the last twelve months, I’ve had two opponents come in overweight when I was scheduled to fight on national television. I was ready to fight both times but my team advised me to cancel the bouts because the fighters were at least 10 pounds above the contracted weight. Jose Luis Rodriguez is a very tough fighter who went the distant with Felix Verdejo, who many people consider a top prospect. I just hope Rodriguez makes weight and the fight happens because I’m ready to shine.”
On his return to FS1 & FOX Deportes as the co-main event:
“I’m very excited to be returning on FS1 even though I’m not the main-event as I was scheduled to be last month. My management team once again is putting me in a great position on national television. In this fight, I’m the co-main event and I’m eager to showcase my talents at super-lightweight. I’m going to put on a great show for everyone watching.”
On his recent training camp with Virgil Hunter in California…
“Virgil and I are working great together. I feel I’m constantly getting better with Virgil each and every day we are together. He’s a great motivator and I’m pushing myself to become a stronger, faster fighter. I’ve been in camp for the last three months and I’m like a lion ready to come out of his cage.”
On fighting in Lancaster, F.EKS…
“I’ve fought several times in California and the fans out here are incredible. This will be my first time fighting in Lancaster and I’m expecting the same lively crowd. The fans are what make this sport go so expect me to come out guns blazing. I’m going to explosive in this fight.”

BRANDON RIOS
“I’m just ready to get back to the top. I know that I have to climb the ladder and that’s what I’m here for.
“When I said that I was done, I was done. Eventually though I started getting that urge again, to get on that stage and perform on TV. My wife told me that if I wanted to fight again, I had to come back dedicated.
“It’s really cool to be fighting right after the Mexico vs. USA match. I’m a Mexican-American but I live in the United States so it’ll be USA vs. Mexico in the ring as well when I face Herrera.
“I know that I have a very skilled, tough opponent. He’s working with Juan Manuel Marquez and he’s very experienced. He’s faced some really tough opponents. It’s going to be a good fight to get back in the ring with.
“I felt like I needed a new voice in my corner. There’s nothing against (former trainer) Robert Garcia, I respect him and he got me to where I am today, but I felt like I got too used to that situation.
“I told (Rios’ træner) Ricky Funez that I wanted to come back and have him train me and thankfully he was excited to work with me. We started working really hard and we took some time to get to know each other more and more.
“I Googled ‘Southern California boxing trainers’ and Ten Goose Boxing and Ricky came up, and I decided to hit him up. So I direct messaged him on Instagram and the rest is history.
“I feel like I’m in really good shape after working with a nutritionist for the first time. My nutritionist is with me 12 hours a day and it’s had me feeling great heading into this fight.
“I’ve always been a brawler, but I’m capable of boxing, especially with my inside game. The way I can deflect punches is a strength.
“I’m just ready to get back to the top. I know that I have to climb the ladder and that’s what I’m here for.”
RICKY FUNEZ, Rios’ Trainer
“Training Brandon was a good challenge for me but he has been disciplined from the very start. I laid it all out for him from the beginning, I just wanted a good response from him and he said he’s going to work hard.
“A lot of people said that he was done, and that motivated me. I’ve seen Joe Goossen bring fighters back like Diego Corrales and he’s my mentor in this sport. I’m working hard to push Brandon and get him to that level.
“Brandon is a stubborn fighter but he really does listen. He has a lot of tools and I think you’ll see that he hasn’t lost anything in that ring søndag.”
