What the fighters, trainers and executives said Kemis:

 

Julio César Chavez JR., Urut Jawara Dunya

I had a great training camp. I feel better than ever. I am ready for the fight.

 

I know that this is a new weight class for me. I realize that Fonfara is very tough and bigger than me, but I am up for the challenge.

 

I have worked on my boxing during my one year off, and I am very excited and motivated to get back in the ring.

 

I have worked so hard for this fight because I am fighting in a new weight class. I must punch harder, so I have focused on getting stronger during this training camp.

 

I have a great chin, I know how to take punches and my conditioning is great. A lot of fighters can take a punch, but I can take multiple punches and not be hurt.

 

I think that Andrzej Fonfara is one of the best fighters in the light heavyweight division. Inside of boxing, everyone knows who Fonfara is. He knocked down one of the best boxers in the world in Adonis Stevenson.

 

Fonfara is disciplined in the ring, but he doesn’t vary his punches.

 

I understand that my dad didn’t want me to take this fight. I had bigger names I could’ve fought, but I think that Fonfara is a great challenge for me and I like the challenge.

 

I would like to thank SHOWTIME for making this fight happen.

 

Andrzej Fonfara, World Title Challenger

I’m prepared very well and I’m ready for this fight. It’s been a great camp like always. I train hard for each fight. I’m a tough boxer who is feeling great. The weight is good and everything is perfect.

 

I must put everything into Saptu night and I will win the fight.

 

I must look even better than I did against Stevenson. Everyone said I looked good, but I lost the fight. I didn’t want congratulations because I did not win the fight. But this time I will win the fight. I’m ready for a decision or for a knockout.

 

I’m ready with a couple of plans. I don’t want to run around the ring, I want to fight tough. I’m going to use my jab and my right hand, which is my best punch.

 

I’m not worried about what his father said about not fighting me. Chavez JR. wants to fight and I will show him that his father was right.

 

It doesn’t matter how I win, I want to win this fight and get my rematch with Adonis Stevenson.

 

“Chavez JR. nyaeta nu bajoang gede. He uses a lot of combinations and has a powerful punch that I must be ready for. I want to show the whole world how good I am when I win this fight dina dinten saptu.

 

If I get the chance, Kaula bade sambel manehna kaluar. It’s boxing so you never know what will happen. I want to box round-by-round and win this fight.

 

I lost the fight with Stevenson but I showed that I was a good boxer. I’m a much smarter fighter now because of that experience. That was a fight at the top championship level.

 

It doesn’t matter what Chavez Jr. says at a press conference, we’ll be in the ring Saptuand everything will happen there.

 

Fan’s can expect heavy punches, knockdowns and a great fight.

 

Amir CINTA, Undefeated Super Lightweight Contender

I’m confident going into this fight because of how I train. I have put my heart and soul into this sport since I moved to Florida three years ago. I left everything behind to better myself.

 

I’m going to stay smart and composed in there and do everything I can to get the win.

 

I don’t feel like I need the knockout to come away with a successful fight. Tapi, you better believe that if there is an opportunity to knock him out, then I will take advantage of it.

 

“Dina 2015, Abdi hoyong jadi jawara dunya. This is my breakout year. A lot of people have been buzzing about me. I want to become the WBC world champion, that’s what I’m heading for.

 

“Teu nyaho manéhna [Karaton] a good opponent, he’s got a great resume, and he’s coming to fight. He has a great record, so that alone shows what he’s capable of. Sapertos Saptu night may the better man win.

 

I’ve boxed styles like [-Na] plenty of times, but you never know, he could come out different Saptuwengi.

 

I’m ready to put on a great show for the SHOWTIME audience.

 

Gulang Walter, Super Lightweight Contender

I’m coming here to fight. I can tell you one thing, Amir Imam made a big mistake by taking this fight.

 

I’ve fought a lot of tough fighters; my two losses were by decisions where I feel I was robbed. I’ve fought better fighters than Amir has.

 

“Sapertos Saptu, I’m going to announce to the whole world that Walter Castillo is here to stay and he’s going to be a world champion.

SR Julio César Chavez.

Being in Los Angeles is like being in Mexico for me; I have had many great memories. I became the world champion for this first time here and my son also became the world champion for the first time here, oge.

 

Julio definitely has a very difficult fight ahead of him.

 

If I was Julio’s manager, I wouldn’t have taken this fight. Fonfara is a difficult and tough fighter.

 

My son wants to fight fighters of quality and wants credibility in boxing.

 

Julio has worked and trained very hard for this fight .He has the capability to win and we expect that it will go very well.

 

JOE GOOSSEN, Chavez’ Palatih

Julio has a window here the next five, genep, seven years that he can capitalize on.

 

I think he’s left the childish stuff behind, and we’re all guilty of being childish.

 

I think that Julio has surprised his father with his determination heading into this fight.

He’s got a left hook to the liver that just sends a shock through your body.

 

He’s not soft. He’s a real fighter. I have been around enough fighters to know that he’s a real fighter. Nomer hiji, he has the never-say- die attitude in there.

 

We’re up against a very well-schooled, blue collar, workmanlike fighter in Fonfara.

 

He is an athletic, improvisational fighter, in that you don’t know where everything’s coming from.

 

I’ve watched a lot of Fonfara tape, and he pretty much repeats what he does, but he repeats it well.

 

This is going to be a battle. You’ve got two contrasting styles and personalities.

 

Julio has 51 fights under his belt. He’s no rookie and he comes from a great bloodline. (In the short time I’ve been with him, it has been) more of an association than a dictatorial effort between the two of us.

 

Based on former camps, he’s never really extracted himself from comfortable surroundings and put himself in a position where he is completely isolated like he was in Lake Tahoe.

 

SAM COLONNA, Fonfara’s Trainer

Fonfara could turn it up whenever. He could be down on the scorecards and one punch he throws could change someone’s world. He’s proven in the past that he has power in both hands.

 

The styles in this fight are perfect for each other. When people ask about the fight I say it could go either way, it depends on who catches the other first.

 

I’m looking for Fonfara to dominate, but Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. is a warrior, he comes to fight, he knows how to go to the body like his father used to, so we’ve been working on all of these strategies.

 

A knockout win would be a dream come true to me. That’s what I’ve been looking for all these years. Winning this huge fight would change everything for Fonfara and myself.

 

This camp that Andrzej had was the best we’ve ever had. He worked hard, he had time to train and there’s no excuses.

 

We’re coming to fight a war. Don’t forget that wars are won by strategy.

 

People say to listen to your father. His father told him not to take this fight, but he took it anyway and that was a mistake.

 

I see this fight not going past 10 rounds, with us getting the knockout.

 

STACY MCKINLEY, Imam sacara palatih

Amir has always trained very hard, but I did see a change in him in this training camp after the last fight. He has stepped up his training by two levels.

 

He learned a lot about his fight against [Fidel Maldonado] under the bright SHOWTIME lights at the MGM Grand.

 

Amir is always confident going into each fight, but he made a mistake in the Maldonado fight. He rolled his right hand and forgot about the left hand and was knocked down. He had to pay for his mistakes but it’s all a learning experience, he still has only 16 professional fights under his belt.

 

Castillo has a great jab and good combinations. A guy like that throws a lot of punches, but there is a technique to breaking down a fighter like that.

 

We can’t spend a lot of time on the ropes, and we must go after his body because his body is weak. Castillo is going to get knocked out dina dinten saptu.

 

I think that Amir is going to open up a lot of eyes dina dinten saptu.”

Di dieu naon Chavez Jr, Julio Cesar Chavez and Joe Goossen (palatih) kapaksa nyebutkeun Jumaah di gym Los Angeles-wewengkon:

 

Julio César Chavez JR., Urut Jawara Dunya

I am very focused going into this fight. I have changed a lot mentally this past year.

 

I am fighting [Andrzej] Fonfara now because I like big opponents. I like the challenge of fighting good, hungry fighters. Just because Fonfara doesn’t have the name recognition of other fighters, it doesn’t make him an easy fighter. Anjeunna pancer.

 

I feel comfortable at light heavyweight. Any time that you can add a couple pounds, you feel better. Although I will be fighting at 175, I feel most comfortable at 168 salaku petinju hiji. Since I have had one year off, it was a better choice to fight at this weight so that I could see how my body feels.

 

Since I have added a few pounds, I have become a more physical and stronger boxer. The light heavyweight division has very big and physical contenders.

 

“Joe [Goossen] is a great trainer. He is a great motivator to his fighters and makes them better. I have worked very hard with him for the 35 days we spent together in Lake Tahoe.

 

When I was training with Freddie Roach, it was very different. I think Freddie is a great trainer, but Joe also has a lot of experience and we have made a connection together.

 

I really liked training in Lake Tahoe. The altitude, ring, everything I needed was there. I felt very comfortable up there and I would like to come back there to train for a fight again.

 

I promise a great fight, this is a very exciting fight. Fonfara isn’t an easy opponent, but he has never seen an opponent like me.

 

 

SR Julio César Chavez.

I am here to support and be with my son. I try to give him good advice. I tell him to train and prepare hard, and fortunately he is doing that well.

 

I think Joe [Goossen] is doing a great job, we are on the same page. We are all focused on him [Chavez Jr.] getting to the fight well prepared. This fight requires great preparation because he is going into the fight at a weight that’s higher than his normal weight and he is facing a very tough opponent.

 

He must go in 100 percent to win this fight.

 

I think there has been a 180 degree turn in his career. I see this as a positive because he can really develop his ability and looks very well prepared.

 

I would’ve liked to have seen him take a tune up fight instead because of his long layoff; I particularly didn’t want this fight.

 

“Juli [Chavez Jr.] wants credibility in this sport and that’s why he made the decision to take this fight, even though it’s a dangerous decision. He must be very prepared for this fight.

 

JOE GOOSSEN, Chavez Jr.s’ Palatih

I’ve been asked over the years who the one fighter was that I would like to work and my answer was always Julio Cesar Chavez Jr.

 

I’ve always really admired his style. I had known him as a kid, his father is a legend. It had always seemed like a dream job for me, and out of nowhere I got it.

 

Lake Tahoe was tremendous for training camp. You are isolated and it’s not an easy thing. When you aren’t training you are sitting in a hotel room. You are deprived the comforts of home, but it really gives you that concentration and dedication factor and I think that will interpret into some positive results.

 

I matured over my years, once I had a kid and a family and I think the same has happened with Julio. Life becomes clearer when you put away the immaturity. You realize that you have a future and if you really want to access what’s available to you, then you are going to have to work hard and dedicate yourself to it.

 

Going to Lake Tahoe and really working hard is a sign of maturity and I think that’s what Julio is going through right now. He really showed it by leaving his home and spending an extended period of time up there. To me that is a great indicator that he is mature, dedicated and taking this fight very seriously.

 

Of course I believe Julio is ready to fight Fonfara. The fight was made before I even came on board, but that’s the challenge that I am presented with. You must figure out a good game plan and figure out what you’re up against.

 

Just because Julio has been out a year doesn’t mean that it’s going to be a cake walk for Fonfara. We went up to Lake Tahoe with one thing in mind, and that’s winning this fight and that’s exactly what we’re going to do.

“I had a hard life so yes, I am angry with him.” – Julio Cesar Chavez, JR.

“I had all Mexico and the world at my feet at that time. But it still didn’t fill the void…So what was it that I looked for? The easiest and stupidest things…drugs and alcohol.” – Julio Cesar Chavez, Sr.

ALL ACCESS: Chavez is written and reported by SHOWTIME Sports contributor Mark Kriegel. Author of acclaimed biographies “The Good Son: The Life of Ray ‘Boom Boom’ Mancini” and “Pistol: The Life of Pete Maravich,” Kriegel has long focused on the conflicts and complexities that beset fathers and sons in sports.

 

With unprecedented access to the young star–Mexico’s first and only middleweight world champion–and his famous father, ALL ACCESSuncovers the stormy yet loving relationship between Junior and his legendary father.

 

No question remains unanswered in a series of interviews at Junior’s high-altitude camp in Lake Tahoe, where his father once trained. What was it like to grow up as the son of Mexico’s greatest fighter? What price does a fighter pay for drugs and alcohol? And what does it do to his family?

 

Only the ending remains in doubt: Is Junior being punished for the sins of his father, or is he doomed to repeat them?

 

“Fame can be a disease, like addiction,” says Kriegel. “And this family has battled both. Junior and Senior weren’t merely candid. They were confessional. Jeung, Émutan abdi, courageous, too.”

 

Jeung ALL ACCESS cameras entrenched in camp, viewers will meet three generations of Mexico’s most famous fighting family as the 29-year-old Junior navigates a crossroads of his career.

Oh, these guys very strong. But I think, sanggeus ieu tarung, Kaula bade ka handap pikeun 168 jeung mondok di kelas beurat ieu. Hiji atawa dua taun ka tukang kuring pindah ka 175 tapi nu ieu teuing pikeun awak mah. Ayeuna, Aku 168. Tapi, pikeun sataun off, ieu tarung aya dina 172.

Q

Andrzej, kumaha Anjeun ngarasa fisik datang off perangna Adonis Stevenson?

It doesn’t matter if it’s Chavez or whoever else, Mah sok ngaraos latihan teuas.

 

Q

Ieu boh Julio JR. and Sr. For Jr., kalawan nyata, aya hiji benefit jeung meureun aral hiji, oge, to having such a famous name. Benefit is that everybody knows your father and what he accomplished. And that brings you attention early in your career as it has. The possible drawback is that you’re always going to be compared to him, aya sababaraha bakal disebut ieu ampir hiji mungkin, impossibly high standard to try to live up to. From your perspective and also from your father’s, kumaha upami nu, beungbeurat jeung kapentingan ngabogaan saperti ngaran kawentar?

 

J. Cesar Chavez JR.

I think I’m well respected because I’m world champion. Tapi, anjeun terang, Jigana ieu téh léngkah mangpaatkeun. Tapi ieu henteu mantuan kuring di ring. Kaula dibuktikeun dina ring. I beat the champions. I beat the number one, jumlah dua, jumlah tilu jeung nomer opat di 168 kilogram. Sarta kuring geus némbongkeun everybody, jelema, mah bisa ngalawan, oge. Kami hiji bajoang alus sarta (Kuring ditunda gelut alus). Jeung jelema siga tempo gelut mah. My style is a good style for the people. And I think this fight, oge, gaya Fonfara nyaéta datang tarung, he’s a fighter with a great heart and great chin. And both of us will make a great fight.

 

J. Cesar Chavez Sr..

 

The name has helped. Kalawan atra, ayeuna teh mantuan meunangkeun perhatian, but we are very different. Manehna — my son fights at a higher weight than I fought. And so, there’s a lot of difference. Fisik, he’s a lot bigger than I was. Janten, aya nu alus jeung goréng, and we understand that. Tapi, manéhna bajoang sorangan saukur kawas ieu.

 

Q

Am, you mentioned earlier that you had a lot of names mentioned for Andrzej before you finally settled on Chavez. Are you willing to reveal some of those names?

 

S. Tihang

Anjeun terang teu? I really don’t have them right in front of me. Tapi, aya saeutikna tilu, four different guys they were throwing at us. And as soon as they said Chavez, Kuring rék, 'Tuh nu bodo urang hayang,’ margi, kawas mah ceuk tadi, the style is perfect for us. And we don’t have to look for him too much, anjeun terang? He’s going to be right there for us. Janten, gaya nu bener, bener dicampur alus.

 

Q

Andrzej, Anjeun geus perang di middleweight, super middleweight, heavyweight cahaya. How does it feel fighting at 172? And do you see yourself moving possibly down in weight in the near future, atawa Anjeun ngarasa anjeun lampu heavyweight bener?

 

A. Fonfara

Aku hiji bajoang heavyweight cahya. That’s because I’m fighting with Chavez. That’s why we have a catch-weight. And that’s why I go down. Mah biasana ngalawan di 175, at least for maybe two years. And this my weight. It’s not impossible for me to go, siga, dua, tilu ratus dinar turun sabab, anjeun terang, basa kuring perang Stevenson taun ka tukang di Méi, Mah ieu 173 terus. And I felt good then. Two pounds down is not problem for me. Should be good, anjeun terang? Just more diet, more work in the last week. And I should be good.

 

Q

Juli Jr, sabaraha lega nyaeta eta kanggo Anjeun pikeun pamustunganana ngalawan sanggeus sataun? I know it’s been trying for you with the whole lawsuit and everything. Janten, kumaha teu eta ngarasa for nyaho ka tungtungna geus perang nepi ka payun?

 

J. Cesar Chavez JR.

Abdi ngaraos séhat. Kuring ngarasa gede, anjeun terang, because this problem offended me a lot mentally more than physically. But I’m really happy that this problem is better now. I have a fight in front of me. And you know, I’m not remembering anything about that. I’m just focusing on the fight April 18 pikeun Fonfara. Abdi ngaraos séhat, Kuring ngarasa gede. You know I can’t tell you with words how I feel because I’m better to the ring. (Tapi kuring ngaraos bungah kacida jadi balik) ka ring.

 

Q

Joe Goossen, nu kaahlian ti Julio Cesar nu narjamahkeun anu pangalusna pikeun division heavyweight cahya?

J. Goossen

Sumur, kahiji off, Julio is a well-rounded fighter. Maksad abdi, we’ve seen him box before. And we’ve seen him pressure before. I don’t want to tip my hand on what we’re going to do but we have studied the films. We’ve talked about the films of Andrzej. Sarta tangtu, we’re developing a game plan. I think the weight — dasarna, 172 is very close to 68. It’s a weight he’s fought at before. So I don’t think the weight is going to be a problem at all. The way he’s working right now and the weight he’s at right now, Jigana urang nuju bade bisa baé 172 mark quite easily. Tapi, deui, as far as what skills he has that we’re going to bring to the table is something that I think is private to us. But Julio Jr. is a multi-talented fighter. Just watching him spar yesterday, lamun urang diperlukeun kotak, he did it beautifully. And when we needed pressure in a few rounds, he pulled it off exactly how I like it. So I’m very confident that whatever style we bring and game plan we bring, urang geus bade suksés jeung éta.

Q

Dupi anjeun tiasa nyieun berat?

J. Cesar Chavez JR.

Nuhun. Sure. I’ll make 172 alatan kuring mayar $100,000 per hiji pound (lamun kuring teu ngalakukeun). Kuring teu bisa mayar nu jenis duit. Kuring geus kungsi ditimbang leuwih ti 172 dina perang. Hiji-hijina fight mah dijieun 172 téh mibanda Brian Vera, the first fight. But in all the rest of my career of boxing, dina sagala bouts kajawaraan mah (Kuring pernah teu make beurat). Kuring henteu weruh naha Anjeun ménta kuring. Oké. Tiasa waé, Aku hiji bajoang leuwih badag, anjeun terang? I know I am a bigger fighter. Tapi, Kuring mah teu boga masalah. Jeung (lamun manéhna teu) teu nyieun berat, meureun kuring gé meunang $100,000 tambih deui.

Q

Janten, Juli, Anjeun geus hoping pikeun $100,000 ti Andrzej Fonfara, tapi nu nuju nyebutkeun yén anjeunna teu kudu asa $100,000 ti Anjeun?

 

J. Cesar Chavez JR.

Entong, entong. I think that the fight’s in the right way. And he’s not going to take advantage of anybody, anjeun terang, margi (Kuring datang di korek api). Anjeun terang, beurat kasebut cukup alus Jigana boh pejuang.

 

Q

Bisa ngobrol ngeunaan kaputusan Anjeun boga Joe Goossen di sudut Anjeun, Anjeun ngarasa, salaku hasil gelut Vera, nu ngahutang fans kinerja hiji?

 

J. Cesar Chavez JR.

Sumur, I’ve known Joe Goossen for a long time. He’s a great trainer. He’s a great person. He’s somebody that motivates fighters. And we have a true connection. We’ve connected again. And I like him a lot. I like that he’s a hard worker, just like me. And I think, bareng, we’re going to do really well. With regards to the performance, Kuring bisa nyaritakeun yén, this show is for the people. Eta nu keur jalan jadi gelut gede. It’s going to be a better fight. Jeung ayeuna, jeung pausahaan promotion anyar mah jeung nyaho nu lawan mah bade jadi sateuacanna, Jigana eta nu keur jalan jadi peuting gede.
