Anche in presenza alla allenamento era il fratello di Peterson, once-beaten contender Anthony Peterson, che gareggia in azione sul undercard Gennaio 20 evento.
Ecco ciò che i partecipanti di allenamento avevano da dire Giovedi:
Lamont Peterson
“Mi sento benissimo. Sono già vicino al peso. Sono felice e mangiare fino a cinque volte al giorno. Mi sento forte e sono pronto per questa lotta.
“Devo guardare a questo solo un altro grande battaglia come realmente. Quando sei in cima, si cerca di non fare troppo di ogni combattimento. Noi sappiamo cosa c'è in gioco. So che quando lo tengo semplice, in quel momento che mi esibisco meglio.
“In questo momento il mio corpo si sente meglio che mai. Sono confortevoli, con tutto che è andato su in campo e penso che si può vedere nel mio corpo.
“Ho sempre allenato duramente fin dal primo giorno mi è venuto qui come un bambino. Che è stato instillato in me fin da giovane età e mi ha portato tutta la mia carriera.
“Tutto quello che faccio è per D.C.. Sto cercando di ottenere quanto più il riconoscimento per questa zona il modo migliore che posso. Questo è quello che tutti si sforzano per in questa palestra. Questo è il più grande che è stato sul programma per un po 'e io sono pronto a portare a casa.
“E 'sempre più facile più combattimenti campionato Sono in. Ero in forma per tutti loro, ma ho sicuramente messo più pressione su me stesso quando ero giovane. Ho migliorato ogni volta e ora mi sento come se fossi davvero al posto perfetto nella mia carriera.”
ANTHONY PETERSON
“Devo fare una dichiarazione. Non ho mai sento a mio agio con una decisione. Penso che è una buona cosa perché devo essere speciale sotto le luci.
“Tutti sanno che mi piace andare al corpo. Sai che ho intenzione di farlo lavorare in modo da poter guardare fuori per me di rompere il mio avversario sul Gennaio 20.
“Sono stato sparring con una varietà di combattenti esperti nel corso dell'ultimo anno e mi hanno aiutato anche se non ho avuto una lotta. Ruggine anello è tutto mentale. E 'a voi per mettere il lavoro in.
“Non ho ottenuto le lotte che voglio, ma sarò sempre fedele al mio gioco e fedele al mio mestiere. So che se perseverare, le cose funzionino per me.
“So che io amo questo sport. So che alla fine sarò un campione del mondo. Io credo nel mio futuro e non vedo l'ora di grandi lotte.
“Mi ispira a guardare Lamont fare la sua cosa e avere successo. Ha intenzione di battere Errol Spence, anche se la gente non ci credono. Penso che stia andando a prendersi cura degli affari.”
Barry Hunter, Trainer di Peterson
“E 'stata una lunga fatica in campo per questi ragazzi. Quando ripenso a quanto tempo siamo stati in questo viaggio, Sono molto orgoglioso di loro. Li avevamo 9 e 10 la prima volta che è entrato in palestra.
“Non abbiamo il mostro di peso a che fare con la lotta al welter. Lamont è in un luogo ideale mentalmente e fisicamente. Non vedo l'ora di una lotta esplosiva.
“Quando si guarda la lotta Spence-Brook, presto Brook avuto un sacco di successo. Lungo il tratto Errol imposto la sua volontà e si è rotto verso il basso Brook. So Errol bene e l'ho allenato. Ha una grande forza di volontà. Non è grande in una zona, ma è bravo in un sacco di aree. Questo è un diverso tipo di ragazzo che sta di fronte. Cuore è qualcosa di Lamont è in nessun posto vicino a corto di. Penso che questo potrebbe cominciare tattico, e poi girare in una guerra.
“Il mio lavoro è quello di andare in là con parte di un piano, ma è sempre di regolazioni per noi. Qualunque sia Errol porta in tavola, faremo capirlo e mettere tutto in moto.
“Quest'ultima settimana è un sacco di piano di gioco e lavoro di preparazione mentale. Un sacco di combattenti non allenare la mente. Bisogna allenare la mente ancor più che il corpo. Dobbiamo essere pronti ad ogni scenario.
“Penso che se Anthony va lì e fa il suo lavoro ci sono alcuni titoli vacanti a 140-libbre e questa è una pista per noi. Vogliamo ottenere una cinghia intorno alla vita e noi affronteremo a chiunque di farlo.
“Lamont, insieme a Anthony, Gary Russell Jr., Jarrett Hurd e Gervonta Davis, sono stati tenendo premuto boxe in questo settore per un lungo periodo di tempo. Sarebbe enorme per portare a casa questo titolo. Ci sono un sacco di giovani Lamont Peterson in questo settore che vogliono raggiungere questo livello. Sarebbe un faro di luce splende e mostrare a queste persone la via.”

“Lamont Peterson è molto brillante e intelligente nell'anello. E 'un duro troppo. Egli porta che forza mentale che è necessario per avere successo. Dobbiamo essere venendo a questa lotta 100 per cento ed essere concentrati per tutto il tempo. Se non lo facciamo, possiamo venire a breve.

Barry Hunter è un duro, allenatore intelligente che porta un sacco al tavolo. Lamont ha una grande squadra. E 'un piacere e un onore affrontarli sul ring.”

Ecco quello che i combattenti avevano da dire sulla loro gennaio 20 matchups e molto altro ancora:
ROBERT PASQUA (20-0, 14 KO) – Fare terza difesa del IBF leggero titolo mondiale
“Questa lotta può sicuramente dare il buon tono per me in 2018. Ho intenzione di essere fare una dichiarazione con questa lotta. I miei ultimi tre combattimenti che non hanno ottenuto un ko. Ho intenzione di essere dare i miei fans e appassionati di lotta un bello spettacolo.
“Ho intenzione di utilizzare la mia portata e la lunghezza e distruggere questo ragazzo dall'esterno. Tutta la mia carriera ho combattuto ragazzi più brevi. Ogni breve ragazzo non combatte lo stesso. Ma si ottiene sul ring e lo sente fuori ed effettuare le regolazioni.
“Non c'è nulla in particolare che devo preparare con Fortuna. Prendo ogni combattere la stessa. Ogni combattente combatte diverso in modo da ottenere in là, lui sentirsi fuori ed effettuare le regolazioni come si va avanti. Io non sono preoccupato per lui che è un mancino. Ho affrontato un sacco di mancini nella mia carriera e nei dilettanti. Questo è senza problemi a tutti.
“Penso che quello che mi fa il pugile più pericoloso in questa lotta sta avendo l'altezza che faccio e il potere di perforazione e la velocità e la mentalità pure. La mia mentalità è che non sto andando lì per giocare con lui. Sono pronto a distruggere.
“I miei obiettivi per 2018 sono per catturare più titoli e per ottenere attacchi di unificazione. Abbiamo avuto un paio di campioni nella classe di peso, ma sembra che nessuno è disposto a combattere gli altri campioni. Siamo disposti a fare qualsiasi cosa, combattere chi ha i titoli. Siamo disposti a catturare tutti quei titoli ogni volta che gli altri ragazzi sono disposti a firmare per i combattimenti.”
JAVIER FORTUNA (33-1-1, 23 KO) – L'ex Campione del Mondo Super Piuma
“La mia preparazione per questa lotta sta andando molto bene. Ho lavorato nella Repubblica Dominicana, ma sono tornato a Boston per completare la mia formazione. In questo momento siamo a 75% e in chiusura su 100%. Sarò completamente preparati quando è il momento di combattere. La mia preparazione e la mia strategia di me il ragazzo più pericoloso fanno.
“Vedo questo come nessun altro lotta che ho avuto prima, perché ogni avversario è diverso. Ognuno ha la propria nicchia a questo livello, qualcosa che funziona per loro. La sua nicchia è che è alto. Egli usa che a suo vantaggio. Ma non è niente che non riesco a superare. Ho combattuto ragazzi alti prima.
“Io preferisco i miei avversari di essere più alto. Esso svolge in quello che sono in grado di fare. Non ho mai avuto un problema con avversari più alti. Abner Cotto (5-10) è uno dei ragazzi alti che ho combattuto. Ho combattuto a Chicago e messo su una grande prestazione. (Fortuna ha segnato un 5th turno KO contro Cotto)
“Il mio obiettivo per il 2018 è quello di combattere tutti i migliori combattenti d'elite nella mia classe di peso, e sto cercando di diventare menzionato come uno dei migliori in questo sport. Ho molta voglia di vincere un altro titolo mondiale in una classe di peso diverso. Sarebbe il momento più grande finora della mia carriera di ottenere un altro titolo mondiale.”
MARCUS BROWNE (20-0, 15 KO) – Top 10 Classificato al 175 lbs. (WBC, WBO, WBA & IBF)
“Il mio avversario (Francy Ntetu, 17-1, 4 KO) si presenta come un bene durevole, tipo tosto. Vedo questa lotta essendo molto emozionante per i tifosi per tutto il tempo che dura. Ho visto un po 'di nastro adesivo su di lui. So che è sempre in perfetta forma, e ho sentito dire che è coerente nella sua performance sul ring. I just know I’m going to have to be sharp on Jan. 20.
“E 'sempre un onore per combattere qui a casa e al Barclays Center. E 'speciale per essere in grado di eseguire davanti a questi tifosi e non vedo l'ora di mettere su una buona prestazione che porta alla Spence vs. Peterson lotta.
“Questa lotta mi potrebbe mettere nella posizione che ho bisogno di essere a lottare per un titolo mondiale. Non può mancare in alcun modo. Devo venire fuori forti con una grande prestazione dall'inizio alla fine e non lasciare dubbi in là.
“Per 2018, Voglio diventare un campione del mondo. Sono determinato tomake accadere quest'anno. That vision starts on Jan. 20 at Barclays Center against Francy Ntetu.
FRANCY NTETU (17-1, 4 KO) – Combattuto David Benavidez al Barclays Center nel mese di giugno 2015
I know Marcus Browne is probably taking me lightly and thinks he will simply go through me. Mi auguro che sia il caso, perché sta andando essere uno shock per lui, i tifosi e la sua squadra quando prendo il suo posto in fila per un titolo. Voglio affrontare Eleider Álvarez nella nostra città natale di Montreal dopo che ottengo questa vittoria.
“La mia lotta precedente al Barclays Center contro l'attuale campione WBC David Benavidez era ovviamente una pessima decisione l'arbitro a fermare la lotta, soprattutto quando mi stavo vincendo il round e Benavidez stava rallentando. Mi è stato sempre più forte, mentre era sempre più debole.
“Non sono mai stato male e mai stato fatto cadere in una lotta. Voglio Marcus per sfidare se stesso e vedere se può fare qualcosa che nessun altro ha. Sono entusiasta di essere in una lotta di questa portata. Marcus, è il momento per noi di dare ai fan quello che vogliono!”
ADAM Kownacka (16-0, 13 KO) – Originario di Polonia & combattimento da Brooklyn
“Questa lotta sta per essere un altro passo per diventare un campione. So che sto andando a lavorare molto duramente e dimostrare che sto continuando a costruire la mia vittoria contro Szpilka. Dal video che ho visto su Iago Kiladze (26-1, 18 KO), egli si muove un sacco, quindi dovrò essere bisogno di tagliare l'anello. Tutto ciò che porta al ring, Avrò una risposta per.
“Tre anni di fila ora ho combattuto nel mese di gennaio. Amo partendo l'anno forte. Mia moglie e io in realtà iniziato una tradizione del “Kownacki Family Run” a mezzanotte on New Year’s Eve. Dal momento che sto sempre preparando per una lotta intorno Capodanno, abbiamo pensato che tanto vale divertirsi mentre lavoriamo. Così, avremo alcuni amici escono e corriamo a poche miglia da noi per il quartiere durante i fuochi d'artificio. E 'divertente e aiuta a ottenere me pronto.
“In definitiva, Sto cercando di diventare il migliore nella divisione dei pesi massimi. L'obiettivo finale per quest'anno è quello di diventare un campione del mondo. Ma il primo passo sta prendendo molto sul serio Iago Kiladze. I can’t look past Gennaio 20 proprio adesso. Ho un avversario difficile che si sfideranno e mi fanno un combattente migliore nel lungo periodo.”
Iago Kiladze, Terzo incontro da quando passare a divisione dei pesi massimi (2-0, 2 KO)
I feel great and my training has been terrific. Il mio allenatore Freddie Roach è ora. I sparred con (IBF Cruiserweight Champion) Murat Gassiev tre volte di recente, che è grande preparazione per me. I believe I can knockout Kownacki but if I have to go the distance I’m prepared for that. In entrambi i casi, Sarò vittoriosa. Sono sento che io sono il combattente più abili e che mostrerà sul ring.
“Questa è una grande lotta per la mia carriera e un inizio formidabile per 2018. I know that if I win this fight I’ll be that much closer to a world title opportunity.
“Il mio obiettivo è quello di essere un campione del mondo alla fine del 2018. I want to continue improving and learning under Freddie and with his guidance I’m confident of success.

Ecco quello che i partecipanti alla conferenza stampa hanno dovuto dire Mercoledì:
ERROL SPENCE JR.
You’re going to see the same Errol Spence that you’re used to. I can’t look ahead because I know how dangerous Lamont Peterson is. I’ve been in training camps with him and I know what he can do.
I’ve seen too many fighters look down the road and get beat before they get to the big fight. I have to be 100 percent focused and hungry. I’m fully dedicated to this fight.
Lamont can push me to even greater levels. I feel like he is a better fighter than Kell Brook and has even more heart than Kell Brook and he can bring out the best in me.
I think it’s going to start out as a boxing match, but as we go on, it’s going to be a dog fight. We both have big hearts. I’ve never known Lamont to turn down any fight. Not a lot of people wanted to fight me. The big names shied away from me but Lamont stood up and said he’d fight me. This is going to be a hard fight.
I used to watch Lamont and his brother Anthony Peterson before I ever met them. I like their styles, the way they throw body punches and the fundamentals that they learned from Barry Hunter.
I think I can be known as the best pound-for-pound in the sport, but I have to take it one fight at a time. I want to be the undisputed welterweight champion. That should be everyone’s ultimate goalto be the best fighter in the sport. But first I have a big test ahead of me Gennaio 20.
This is the business of the sport. I was a young guy when Lamont was giving me advice. Now we’ve gotten to this point. It really shows his longevity in the sport and how I’ve reached the ranks of being a top pro fighter.
Sparring with Lamont Peterson was really great work. E 'stata una esperienza di apprendimento. I was an amateur so I was going at a fast pace and Lamont was being patient, blocking and countering and picking his shots. He was fighting at a pro pace and I didn’t really understand it until I got farther into my career.
You’ve seen me and Lamont fight. We’re not in boring fights. We have fan-friendly styles and you’re going to get a really good fight. We have the mentality to really go after it and give it our all to get this win.
I want the best in this division to all fight each other. It’s time for everyone else to stand up and proclaim that they want to be great. That’s how we get this division to the peak. I don’t feel like waiting to fight the best. I want to prove myself.
Lamont Peterson
This is a world title fight and I’m thankful for that. I try not to make too much out of each fight. I just want to take it one fight at a time. I’ve done this for 13 years as a professional. All fights are the same. I’m going to go in there and take care of business.
As a top fighter, you’re obligated to take what comes on the table. Regardless of who it is. It’s boxing. It’s a sport and we’re competitors. We want to go in there and compete to see who’s the best. We’re going to treat it like business like we always do.
You already know when I fight, it’s a feeling out process to start, but in my head, Sono pronto ad andare. It’s going to get rough in the trenches and we’ll see who wants it more.
I knew six years ago when Errol was in my camp that we’d get to this point. I knew he would be a champion. Per la maggior parte, I’ve seen him improve and progress throughout the pro ranks and I believe he’s going to keep getting better.
I don’t pay any attention to the outside noise. I respect everyone’s opinion. I just go out and train to do what I love to do. I do this because I love to box. I’m not here to get on a list. I truly love this sport.
I can’t worry about people thinking that Errol is the next star in this sport. I believe that, but I can’t worry about it. It is up to me and my team to come up with the right type of strategy and execute it.
I’m not too worried about figuring out his southpaw stance. I’ve been around long enough and encountered enough southpaws. I’m confident I’ll be able to handle it.
The size may seem like an advantage for Errol, but it’s up to me and my team to figure out the best way to negate it. I know who I am. I’m a competitive person. Indipendentemente da tutto, I’m going to come to win.
DERRICK JAMES, Trainer di Spence
We have a game plan in place. We’ll try to perfect everything leading up to this one. We’re working on making Errol a more complete fighter every time out. He’ll be better than he was when you saw him against Brook.
We’re looking for the perfect fight. It takes a great fighter to bring out the greatness in another great fighter. These guys are high caliber fighters and it’s about as good a matchup as you can have in the division.
These are two guys with the mentality to go after it. But they also have technical skill. This is going to be an old school fight between guys with real skills.
It’s one thing to do it, but it’s another to teach. I’ve really understood this sport since I became a trainer. Fighters are developed, not born. I’m going to keep working with these guys on the fundamentals so we can bring up the whole sport.
Barry Hunter, Trainer di Peterson
When I look at Errol Spence, I instantly fell in love with him because he reminded me of Lamont so much. They both have that dog mentality. I’ve always known he was a special fighter.
Lamont told me when he worked with Errol that he really liked the kid. He knew he would be a world champion. I had to remind myself that this is business. We have to fight our friends.
These are the two guys who are ready to fight anybody. The fight on Gennaio 20 is going to be one to remember. It’s a fan-friendly fight.
Errol Spence is the best fighter in the welterweight division. You have athletes that can fight and athletes who are fighters. Errol and Lamont are both. They have the skills and they have the ability to fight.
To be the best in the world, you have to fight the best in the world. All the greats have done it. In order to get back to the glory days, we need to put the best against the best. I have confidence in Lamont Peterson against anybody.
LOU DiBella, Presidente di DiBella Entertainment
There are very few fights you could make that are better in the welterweight division than this fight. It’s going to take place at the home of big-time boxing, here at Barclays Center in Brooklyn and live on SHOWTIME.
Errol Spence is one of the most talked about fighters in the sport. Some think he could be the best fighter in the world. He’s consistently said he only wants to fight the best and on Gennaio 20 he will be fighting another champion and another great welterweight. Lamont Peterson never backs down from a challenge and we know he’ll be ready for this fight on Gennaio 20.
This is a great event that continues the run of significant meaningful matchups on SHOWTIME. It’s been great quality programming. The fight cards have all been incredibly easy to promote because the fights have been so strong. You have to make fights with great fighters battling other great fighters. That’s what we need to energize our fans and our sport.
STEPHEN ESPINOZA, Executive VP & Direttore Generale, SHOWTIME Sports
As we come to the end of 2017 we look back on what has been a really strong year. 25 nights of live boxing, 80 live boxing matches and 27 lotte titolo mondiale. Not just title fights, but world title fights featuring top ranked challengers against top ranked champions.
We’ve brought you the most watched fight of the year in Keith Thurman vs. Danny Garcia right here at Barclays Center on CBS. It was also the most watched primetime boxing match in nearly 20 anni. But we will not be resting on our laurels.
We’ll kick off next year with an incredibly strong card. Errol Spence has grown up on SHOWTIME and we’re proud of that. He made his debut on ShoBox and won his world title on SHOWTIME. He has knocked out nine straight opponents and in his last five fights his opponents have an impressive record of 141-7-3.
Not a lot of fighters are rushing to fight Errol Spence. Lamont Peterson not only stepped up to the challenge, but he relinquished his welterweight title to take this fight. That’s the kind of fighter he is. He has one of the strongest resumes in the division and he’s fought the best guys in the sport.
We’re thrilled to kick off the year with this matchup. It’s another great fight in the welterweight division, a division we’ve been paying a lot of attention to for years. We’ll see you on Gennaio 20.”
BRETT Yormark, CEO of Brooklyn Sports & Divertimento
We’re coming off of an incredible 2017 for BROOKLYN BOXING. It far exceeded my expectations. We’re very committed to boxing, not just now, but in the future. This fight kicks off what I think will be a great 2018 for BROOKLYN BOXING.
Lamont was on the first ever PBC card at Barclays Center in 2015 and Brooklyn is happy to have you back. Errol was here in the spring of 2016 and we’ve had him as a fan several times, but we far prefer having you here in the ring.
Barclays Center is known for hosting 50-50 fights and this is no different. We’re thrilled to be holding this event here in Brooklyn. We look forward to seeing you on Gennaio 20.”

L'evento è presentato da Premier Boxing Champions e andrà in onda in diretta su Showtime (9 p.m. E/6 p.m. PT) da Barclays Center, la casa di Brooklyn boxe ™.
Because of inclement weather near his home in Miami, Ortiz was unable to travel to New York, but did offer his thoughts about the upcoming fight via telephone.
I biglietti per l'evento dal vivo, che è promosso da DiBella Entertainment e TGB Promozioni, sono già in vendita e possono essere acquistati presso ticketmaster.com, barclayscenter.com o chiamando 800-745-3000. Tickets can also be purchased at the American Express Box Office at Barclays Center. Sconti di gruppo sono disponibili chiamando il 844-BKLYN-GP.
Ecco ciò che i partecipanti dovevano dire Mercoledì:
Deontay Wilder
“Sono il best. I am the toughest heavyweight in the division. Sono il man in the division. I don’t care what anybody else has going on. You’ve got to come through me.
When I knock him out, I want my due respect. I’m the only American heavyweight champion of the world and I am the man. Nobody is stronger physically, mentalmente e spiritualmente. They are all scared of me.
I’m the heavyweight in the division with real knockout power. I put grown men down easily. Su Novembre 4, Ortiz is going down. Dopo di che, you already know who is next. I’m ready to unify.
If he’s the boogeyman, I can’t wait to shine a light on him because the boogeyman is only effective at night. And we’re in New York so you already know what happened to King Kong in New York.
The game plan is the same as usual. We’re going to use my attributes. I’m going to set him up until the time comes. Ortiz has a great set of skills and I like his aggressive style. That’s one of the reasons I chose him. I wanted to beat him to prove that I am the man.
It definitely won’t go the distance. Ora, I’m thinking about three rounds but come November 4th, it might be in the first round.
LUIS ORTIZ
I’m ready to go and excited for the fight. I want to get to Novembre 4 so I can do what I have to do.
Wilder does a lot of talking. He’s nervous and keeps forgetting the date of the fight. I think he took this fight because he has no choice and no one else to fight.
I think Wilder is going to run in this fight. He should be careful what he says before the fight, because I think he’s going to run from me.
Wilder should sign his death sentence. I’m very different than anybody else that he’s fought. I punch harder than anybody else. I’m going to teach him not to mess with Cubans.
Some skeptics are talking about my age, but look at Mayweather. I still have my speed and my quickness.
JAY bello, Wilder’s Co-Manager and Trainer
Everything in camp has been going well. Last time we were here in New York we had a great crowd and it was a wonderful event. This will be an even bigger challenge. This is the fight the fans wanted and this is the fight we wanted.
Deontay has always wanted the biggest challenges. We won the belt in [Bermane] Stiverne’s hometown and we were ready to go to Russia to defend the belt. These are two guys in the division no one wants to fight, but they’ve decided to fight each other.
This is a great opportunity for Deontay to show who he is and where he is. It’s going to be well worth everyone’s time to be there at Barclays Center.
LOU DiBella, Presidente di DiBella Entertainment
There is nothing like a great heavyweight championship fight and on November 4th, a great champion is going to fight a great contender. This is a terrific fight.
This fight is happening because Deontay Wilder wants the world to know that he is afraid of no one, and that he’s prepared to fight anyone and he’s the best heavyweight in the world today. I could not be prouder of him for making this fight happen.
This is the toughest fight that Deontay Wilder could engage in right now. This is the most difficult opponent he possibly could fight.
Luis Ortiz is the boogeyman of this division. You haven’t heard anyone scream about fighting Luis Ortiz. A lot of people were shocked when they heard that Deontay Wilder wants to fight him. He not only wants to fight him, but he insisted upon it.
This isn’t a 43-year-old champion on his last legs in Luis Ortiz. This is a hungry beast that wants to beat Deontay Wilder. But Deontay is a champion. He’s not doing this for the money. A lot of people would think this is a dumb economic move. This is a legacy move. This is a move to prove who is the best. We’re not afraid of Anthony Joshua. If he was available on November 4th and wanted to fight, we’d fight him then.
STEPHEN ESPINOZA, Executive VP & GM, SHOWTIME Sports
This has been a really strong year for SHOWTIME Boxing. This will be our 23rd live boxing event on SHOWTIME this year. And they’ve been important, lotte significative. Not just a big name against a nobody. Infatti, 16 times this year on SHOWTIME we’ve featured and unbeaten fighter taking on another unbeaten fighter. We know on SHOWTIME that you’re seeing the best fighting the best. No other network is as dedicated to delivering the highest quality fights. So without question, it’s been a great year.

There is no question about that. This will be the eighth heavyweight title fight we’ve featured in the last two years. The only way to get to one unified champion in the heavyweight division is to have the best fight the best, and that is what is happening here on Novembre. 4, and we can’t wait.

He cemented his standing in the division with victories over veteran contenders Bryant Jennings, Tony Thompson and Malik Scott and is the No. 1-ranked contender by the WBC.
If Ortiz wins, he will become the first Cuban born fighter to win a heavyweight world championship.

BROOKLYN (Luglio 30, 2017) – campione del mondo tre divisioni Mikey Garcia kept his undefeated record intact with a dominant 12-round performance against four-division world champion Adrien Broner nel main event di Showtime Championship Boxing, Saturday on SHOWTIME from Barclays Center, la casa di Brooklyn boxe®.
In what could be considered one of the best performances of his career, Garcia (37-0, 30 KO) won a unanimous decision by scores of 117-111 e 116-112 due volte.
“Ci siamo allenati per 10 settimane, we had a great training camp and great sparring, we knew it was going to be a tough fight,” Ha detto Garcia.
Garcia took the lead early on, showcasing fundamentally sound technique and backing Broner into the ropes midway through the second frame. A flurry of body shots put Broner in trouble in the second round. While Broner was able to stay on his feet, Garcia emerged with another round in his favor.
I think I controlled the fight in the early rounds and I kept the activity up,” Ha detto Garcia. “Broner is a great fighter and he has great skills but I was the superior fighter stasera.”
Garcia showed a combination of jabs, power punches and body shots all night long. He cornered Broner on the ropes with a huge left hook halfway through the third frame, and backed him in to the ropes again with 39 seconds remaining in the round. While Broner showed some movement in the fourth round and hit Garcia with a succession of 1-2 combinations, Garcia’s bodywork kept Broner at bay.
It was part of the strategy to be a little busier in this fight than in the fights I have previously had,” Ha detto Garcia.
Broner (33-3, 24 KO) looked to get back in the fight as he started the eighth round with a succession of sharp combinations, however his lack of consistency couldn’t withstand Garcia’s phenomenal body shots and overall punch output. Through eight rounds, Garcia had thrown a total of 500 punzoni, while Broner had just thrown 291.
It was a good fight at the end of the day, I come to fight I come to win and I put my heart on the line,” Broner said. “But it was Tom & Jerry; I had to catch the mouse.
Although Garcia had amassed an early lead from the first three-quarters of the fight, Broner continued to walk through heavy fire from Garcia in an attempt to connect with a big punch and change the tide of the fight. While he was able to ignite the crowd and land several big punches over the final three rounds, none of it proved to be enough to slow down Garcia.
It was my timing, I’ve always said I have very good timing,” ha detto Garcia. “It is underestimated when you are outside the ring but once you get inside the ring with me, I’m a step ahead.
Undefeated Jermall Charlo (26-0, 20 KO) made his debut at 160-pounds with a stoppage of Argentine contender Jorge Sebastian Heiland (29-5-2, 16 KO) in the co-featured event of SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING. L'arresto è venuto a 2:13 of the fourth round after Charlo delivered a devastating left hook followed by a big right to end the fight.
Charlo, di Houston, Texas, dominated the pace from the beginning. He landed the sharper and more accurate punches throughout the fight, especially in the first round where he landed 50 percent of his power shots to Heiland’s 13 cento. Charlo’s straight right was his power weapon throughout the contest.
I felt good at this weight. I was in good shape all camp,” Detto Charlo. “I just had to keep my composure in the ring. That’s always something I have to work on and I was able to do it.
After I dropped him the first time they said he fell on top of his ankle. That’s just part of the boxing game. I had to just stay consistent and get the work done.
Heiland, di Buenos Aires, Argentina, had issues with his left leg after injuring his knee in the first round. His discomfort was clear in his awkward footwork and lack of power behind his punches. Referee Benjy Esteves had the doctor examine him twice throughout the fight, once before the third round and then again before the fourth.
I turned my left knee in the first round, but I did not want to give up,” said Heiland. “Ho cercato di dare tutto me stesso, but it was not my night. I had bad luck but I am going to work harder than ever to get back and get another opportunity to achieve my dream and win a world title.
Charlo stayed focused on his game plan despite seeing his opponent injured. “Sometimes the injury can be a decoy, you never want to just jump in and think it’s part of his game plan,” Charlo said. “My coach told me to stay behind my jab like I did; continue to work and it’s going to come.
With this win, Charlo becomes a mandatory challenger for the WBC Middleweight World Championship.
I’m ready for anyone. I’m ready for whoever wants to fight me,” Charlo added. “Bring on the biggest names at 160. I’m the real Tommy Hearns. I feel it’s my turn and I’m going to go get it.
In primo piano il “SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING Prelims,” dei pesi massimi Jarrell Miller (19-0-1, 17 KO), di Brooklyn, N.Y., stopped former world title challenger Gerald Washington (18-2-1, 12 KO) after eight-rounds.
Miller used his significant size advantage and effective power-punching to break down the former collegiate football player. Washington had some success early with his jab and body attack, but was not able to stay out of punching range of Miller
Washington surged in the sixth round with a series of power shots that staggered Miller, however the Brooklynite countered and further broke down Washington, who landed just 20% of his jabs overall.
Mugnaio, who landed almost half of his power punches, continued the onslaught in the seventh and eight rounds, and while Washington was able to stay on his feet, he took enough punishment that his corner called the fight after the eighth round.
I definitely felt the ring rust,” ha detto Miller, who was making his third appearance on SHOWTIME. “Gerald was very tough. It was a very good fight that had me thinking. My power was there, but I couldn’t put it together the way I wanted to today.
I took the hard way back coming in off of a layoff. Gerald definitely pushed me and motivated me. I had to rely on my brain and my power.
I knew there would be a give and take in this fight. It’s one thing to fight when you have stamina, it’s another to fight when you’re tired. I was trying to outthink him.
Nel match di apertura “SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING Prelimson Facebook Live, Irish sensation Katie Taylor (6-0, 4 KO) fermato Jasmine Clarkson (4-9) after three rounds of action in the latter fighter’s U.S. debutto.
The Olympic Gold medalist was dominant from the outset, stalking her opponent around the ring and consistently trapping her in the corner. Taylor was effective with both hands and did most of her work to the head of Clarkson. After three rounds of damage, Clarkson’s corner stopped the bout and gave Taylor her first stateside win as a pro.
It was a fantastic experience being my first time competing here in the U.S,” ha detto Taylor. “There were definitely some nerves before the fight. It was great to go in there and get a stoppage.
I hope that I made some fans stasera. I loved hearing the Irish fans in the crowd. I hope that there will be even more next time I fight here. The more fights I have here in the U.S. il meglio.
I thought I performed pretty well. I definitely got caught with a few silly shots. I could have been cleaner but overall it was a good performance. I felt good and strong. I’ll be ready to get back in there as soon as possible.
Additional action saw former world champion Rau'shee Warren (15-2, 4 KO) earn a unanimous decision victory over former champion McJoe Arroyo (17-2, 8 KO) and became the mandatory challenger for the IBF Junior Bantamweight World Title.
Warren attacked the body throughout the bout and landed the cleaner, more effective punches over the 12-round contest. The judges concurred and gave him the decision by scores of 118-10 e 117-111 due volte.
I would give myself a B+ for that performance,” said Warren. “I wanted to make sure to use my jab and I felt like it really helped me win the fight.
I feel really good at this weight. Now it’s time for me to go get a strap. I haven’t been at this weight since the Olympics. I want to get these titles and then go down to 112 pounds for another title. First I want to take care of Jerwin Ancajas.
Sabato di fights will replay on Sunday, Luglio 30 a 8:35 a.m. ET on SHOWTIME and on Lunedi, Luglio 31 a 10:30 p.m. E/PT on SHOWTIME EXTREME and will be available on SHOWTIME on DEMAND® e SHOWTIME ANYTIME®.

Here is what the press conference participants had to say Thursday from Dream Hotel Downtown:

ADRIEN BRONER

“Just know that I’ll be ready il Sabato notte. I’m not worried about how much he’ll weigh when we step into the ring. I’m ready for anything.

“Camp was tough, but it was great. I did a lot of things differently and made sure that I was doing everything right. I made sure not to cut any corners this camp.

“This is going to be a great fight for boxing. I’ve done my due diligence. I’m going to take care of business. I just know myself and know what I’m capable of.

“Every fight is a must-win in this sport. There’s no fight you go into with a loss on your mind. I’m going to put on a show il Sabato.

“I laugh when people write me off. I’m used to being the underdog coming from where I come from. People don’t know what I’ve been through to get to this point. I’m blessed to be where I’m at. Sabato night there will be a lot more room on the bandwagon.

“We’ll see who’s on the pound-for-pound list after Sabato notte. We could have fought years ago but the time is now and I’m ready.

“I’m glad that the Garcia team took this fight as quickly as we did. I’ve been taking everything seriously in Colorado. I know Mikey will be ready too. Robert Garcia definitely has some confidence from beating me with Marcos Maidana. But Mikey is not Maidana.

“I just don’t feel like Mikey will be able to do anything to stop me from getting the victory. I’m sure he’s confident too. After I make it look easy, I want everyone to write about it and say something good.

“I can make anybody quit in the ring. Mikey is no different. If I execute and stay focused, don’t be surprised. Sono pronto per questa lotta.

"Sabato is going to be a special day for me. My birthday is domani. Sono quasi 30. I want to dedicate this victory to my twin brother Andre. Seeing his smile will make it even more special for me.”

MIKEY GARCIA

“I’m prepared to go 12 hard rounds with Adrien Broner. This is a high profile fight. Probably more than my other fights. It’s created a lot of buzz amongst fans and media. Everyone is anticipating a great fight. This is a great matchup that can take me to the next level.

“I don’t think that he’s going to be desperate but he knows that I’m not an easy opponent. That’s why he’s taken camp so seriously. I expect him to be at his best and be ready. He knows that if he beats me he can launch his career back to where it was.

“He’s a four-division world champion so clearly he has the skills. I need someone who is hungry and motivated to bring out the best in me. My main focus is getting the win by any means necessary.

“I’m going to lo look to box effectively and show that I’m the better fighter. We’re both smart fighters but neither of us will run from the other. When you have styles like ourselves, with two guys who like to exchange punches, you’re in for a great battle.

“I think Adrien will be fine with the weight. He’s a pro and he knows that he really has to make weight. He’s learned from his mistakes. Sometimes he jokes around but that’s just part of his character. He takes things a lot more seriously because he’s facing me.

“If I can get this win, I just want to keep moving forward and fulfilling my dreams. I want to be in huge fights consistently. This is a crossroads fight for both of us to get to that level.

“I’m very excited to be here. Brooklyn was very kind to me when I fought here last year. I expect the fans to be here and show up like they always do il Sabato. There are incredible boxing fans in New York.

“I’m here to prove that I’m back and stronger than ever. This is another opportunity to show the kind of fighter that I am. I won’t let Adrien Broner stand in my way. This is my chance to show the best version of myself.”

Charlo JERMALL

“I feel great and ready to make my debut at 160 libbre. Camp has gone smoothly. I’m ready to dominate this division like I did 154 libbre. My plan is to care of Heiland and then everything else will fall into line from there.

“This is a bigger, better and stronger version of Jermall Charlo. Everything has come together during camp. Ronnie Shields runs a great camp and I believe he’s continuing to bring the best out of me.

“I’m completely focused on this matchup. I know that I can’t get any of the big fights that I crave without taking care of Heiland. I’m going to break him down and if the knockout comes, I’ll make sure to take advantage.

“My hat is off to Adrien Broner and Mikey Garcia for bringing out all the fans and media for this great show. It’s a real thrill to be a part of this event.”

JORGE SEBASTIAN HEILAND

“I’m thankful to everyone who has welcomed me to New York. I’m happy to have this big opportunity and I’m 100 percent prepared for whatever Jermall Charlo brings. Jermall is a great fighter and I know that he is going to bring everything he has.

“I’ve had an amazing camp and I’ve never felt more prepared for an opportunity than this. I was very patient and I will take full advantage. My plan is to leave everything in the ring il Sabato.

“My team has been with me for a long time as I waited for this opportunity. Be ready because it’s going to be a battle and a great matchup il Sabato. You won’t want to miss it.”

GERALD WASHINGTON

“I came here to go to work. I’m going to shut that big mouth of his up. I hope someone is holding him accountable for all the words he’s been saying. You’re in there with a real one il Sabato notte. I’m going to welcome you to this game for real.

“I’m sure he’ll try to bring some extra pressure. I’m going to introduce him to a new class of boxing. I’ve taken a lot from my experiences in training camp with Wladimir Klitschko and in the ring with Deontay Wilder. You’ll see the difference il Sabato.

JARRELL MILLER

“If you don’t know who “Big Baby” is, you soon will. I’ve never seen anyone get knocked out and get praised for it, but that’s what people are doing for Washington. I’ve never been hurt in my life in the ring and I’ll prove it il Sabato.

“This guy said he’s going to introduce me to big-time boxing. I’ve been in front of huge crowds and I’ve come through with knockout wins. I’ll be more than ready il Sabato notte.

“I’ve got big plans in this sport and this is only the start. Brooklyn fans loved their hometown heavyweights Mike Tyson and Riddick Bowe. I’m going to be next in that line and this city will love me.”

KATIE TAYLOR

“It’s incredible to be here in New York and to make my US debut on this incredible card. It’s truly a privilege.

The heavyweight fight between Gerald Washington and Jarrell Miller is another one that deserves to be seen and I think it could be the fight that steals the show.

You know their resumes and you have to give them all of the credit in the world for taking this fight. Neither had to take this fight, but it will be one of the most exciting matchups of the summer.
