I am so excited to be bringing this huge event to my hometown,” hais tias Figueroa. “It is my dream to fight on such a big stage and bring this kind of attention to Hidalgo. My fans have supported me from day one, and I plan on showing them how grateful I am with a stellar performance on Tej zaum 9.”

 

“Kuv yuav tsis tos rau no sib ntaus. Ever since it was confirmed I’ve been absolutely buzzing in the gym,” said Burns. “I’ve had some great nights in Scotland winning and defending my world titles at two different weights but I have always wanted to box in America. Our styles gel perfectly for one hell of a fight, neither of us take a step backbring on Tej zaum 9!”

 

This will be a home game for Figueroa, who will be making his initial start at 140 pounds after a hard-fought ninth-round knockout over Daniel Estrada in a slugfest last August. The 25-year-old Figueroa vacated his 135-pound belt after that defense. He became a champion in 2013 when he earned a unanimous 12-round decision over Nihito Arakawa in a brutal Fight of the Year battle. Figueroa, despite fighting with a cut on his nose from an accidental head-butt, registered two knockdowns in the memorable slugfest.

Now the Weslaco, Texas native will move up in weight when he battles Burns on Tej zaum 9.

 

An experienced fighter and former two-division world champion out of Scotland, Burns looks to add a huge victory to his resume when he takes on Figueroa. A champion in the junior lightweight and lightweight divisions, the 31-year-old owns victories over a host of accomplished fighters including Roman Martinez, Michael Katsidis and Kevin Mitchell. After suffering consecutive losses to Terrence Crawford and Dejan Zlaticanin, Burns bounced back to defeat Alexandre Lepelley in October 2014 and he will look to keep that momentum going on Tej zaum 9.

 

An undefeated world champion out of Tokyo, Kameda announced his arrival stateside with a vicious knockout over Pungluang Sor Singyu in July 2014 nyob rau hauv Las Vegas. Uas knockout yog Kameda tus thib ob bantamweight title tiv thaiv tom qab nws yeej txoj siv tawv los ntawm Paulus Ambunda nyob rau hauv 2013. The 23-year-old followed up his U.S. debut thaum nws yeej Alejandro Hernandez nyob rau hauv Chicago ntawm split kev txiav txim siab. His next challenge comes when he faces fellow bantamweight world champion McDonnell.

 

The United Kingdom’s McDonnell has been on a tear since 2008 nrog 17 sib law liag yeej. Uas nyuam qhuav, he became a bantamweight world champion with a victory over Tabtimdaeng Na Rachawat and later successfully defended against Javier Nicolas Chacon.

Q

Adonis, so much talk about you fighting the other light heavyweight champions and who the real light heavyweight champion of the world is. What are your thoughts about these other guys and it is interfering with your concentration for your fight with Sakio on Plaub Hlis Ntuj 4 on CBS?

 

A. Stevenson

Hmoob, Kuv paub tias lawv muaj heev npaum li cas tham txog hais tias, tab sis kuv heev teem rau Bika tam sim no, because Bika is in my face now. I don’t see anybody. I don’t see anybody in my face now. It’s Bika. And I don’t underestimate him, thiab kuv heev npaj rau nws. Kuv yuav tau npaj kom txhij rau nws Plaub Hlis Ntuj 4. Yog li ntawd, kuv ua kom pom tseeb yog nyob rau Bika. Kuv paub hais tias lawv muaj li ntawd muaj coob tus neeg tham rau kuv txog yuav ua li cas sib ntaus no, tab sis kuv heev tsom ntsoov rau no txiv leej tub.

Q

Yuav ua li cas yog tus txheej txheem rau kev siv yeeb tshuaj xeem ua ntej Plaub Hlis Ntuj 4?

A. Stevenson

Peb lub sij hawm nyob rau hauv cov kev cob qhia thiab ib lub sij hawm yog rau o'clock in the morning. Yog li ntawd, they come into the condo and to do a drug test and two times in the training after sparing. I think it’s good for the boxers, to protect them. I’m very glad about that. And when I got to fight, Kuv ib txwm ua lub xeem, koj paub? Yog li ntawd, nws tsis yog thawj lub sij hawm kuv ua cov kev xeem, but I always to do it. This is fantastic, Kuv hlub uas.

Q

Koj puas xav tias nws yog tsim nyog rau boxing muaj hais tias hom kev xeem?

A. Stevenson

Ntawm chav kawm nws yog tsim nyog vim hais tias, yog pab koj. Yog li ntawd, nws yog ib qho tseem ceeb heev kom paub tseeb tias txhua yam yog mus zoo heev. Thiab hais tias yog ib feem ntawm boxing thiab hais tias yog cov evolution. Kuv zoo siab heev thiab zoo siab thiab txhawb uas.

Q

Sakio, koj xav li cas txog hais tias?

S. Taurus

Kuv xav tias nws yog heev, zoo heev vim hais tias kuv muaj [unintelligible] since I’ve been here. I think it’s good for the new generation. It goes for this sport. Rau kuv, Kuv xav tias nws yog zoo meej. Nws yog zoo meej vim hais tias, li ntawd muaj coob tus neeg [unintelligible] so num lawm [unintelligible] drug and they never get tested. And now with new generation, Kuv xav tias nws yog zoo heev, koj paub, for younger kids to try to see if they want to win. Once you come in this sport you have to have been clean. Nws yog ib tug zoo meej lub koom haum kom tau cov neeg muab kev koom tes nyob rau hauv thiab sim lawv. Nws yog lub zoo meej tshaj plaws ua.

Q

Yog li ntawd neb ob leeg yuav tau mus soj ntsuam peb lub sij hawm, ob lub sij hawm thaum lub sij hawm txoj kev kawm camp, ib lub sij hawm ua ntej kev sib ntaus? Is that correct, hais mav?

A. Stevenson

Kuv tsis paub rau nws, but for me it’s three time. And we do a piss test, thiab peb ua ib tug kuaj ntshav, heev.

S. Taurus

Hmoob, for me it was three time. Then two blood testlike blood test and piss test. This is the third time them testing me since I was here.

Q

Thawj lo lus nug uas twb nug mus rau Adonis txog nws tej kev npaj rau tom ntej sib ntaus thiab kuj cuam tshuam nyob ib ncig ntawm tag nrho yav tom ntej tej zaum tw, Kuv xav tau mus ntxiv tib lo lus nug rau Adonis dua.

 

A. Stevenson

Koj paub, lub hom khoom xws li Bika yog qus thiab tau qhia nws tuaj–koj paub, he just keep coming. The kind of stuff like that, I love this kind of stuff because he’s large and keep pressuring. And so, nws qhia tau hais tias yog koj ua yuam kev li ntawd ces nws yuav yog ib lub knockout sai sai nyob rau hauv lub sib ntaus.

Q

Kuv lo lus nug yog rau “Qab Zib” Hill. “Qab Zib”, Kuv cia li xav paub hais tias koj twb txaus siab nrog rau hauv cov style uas tau xaiv rau no tom ntej sib ntaus, yog tias qhov no yog lub hom xeem koj saib rau raws li ib tug kws qhia.

S. Hill

Raws li deb raws li tab tom nrhiav rau ib tug style rau Adonis mus tua–and actually it doesn’t really matter to me. I’m happy with the selection of Sakio Bika. I have no problem with his style. I actually like the style because he’s coming forward. He wants to fight, and Adonis loves to fight. Adonis likes to go to toe-to-toe, and he likes to box. This is important for the maturity and, rau Adonis kawm ntxiv txog boxing yuav tsum tau yuav tsum tau nyob rau hauv nws nrog ib tug dav hlau tua rog zoo li Sakio Bika, uas yog ib tug muaj zog, txiav txim siab thiab nyuaj qub tub rog uas tau withstand. He can take a punch. He’s never been knocked out or anything like that. Yog li ntawd, qhov no yog ib lub sij hawm rau Adonis rau tej zaum mus 12 rounds los yog mus rau hauv lub tom qab rounds, uas yuav tsim thiab ntxiv rau nws cov hauj lwm raws li sib ntaus sib tua nyob rau hauv tom qab rounds, uas nws tau muaj peev xwm ua. No sib ntaus ntawm no nrog Bika yog ib txoj kev kuaj, thiab Adonis hlub yuav tsum tau soj ntsuam kuaj. I love for him to be tested as well. This is the only thing that’s going to make him grow and become more of a talented fighter and become a bigger superstar.

Q

Adonis, yog koj nrhiav nyob rau hauv ib tug nyuaj 12 puag ncig kev sib ntaus los yog koj saib nws raws li txug raws li ua thawj mus khob qhov no txiv leej tub tawm yog hais tias caij rau nws?

A. Stevenson

It is motivation for me. That’s why I train very hard. I know he’s large as well in his punch. And he wants to keep me pressured. I love this kind of style. And if he goes for 12 rounds Kuv npaj txhij rau 12 rounds. I fight and spar. My fight is, sparing thiab cob qhia rau cov 12 rounds.When kuv tau nyob rau hauv lub nplhaib, Kuv tab tom nrhiav rau cov knockout. I don’t look for the 12 puag ncig. If he goes the distance or 12 rounds, this is not a problem. Kuv yuav lub thawv. I’m beautiful. I got a good skill. I’m a Superman. Yog li ntawd, it’s not a problem for me. Tab sis, first I’m looking for a knockout. And I think any boxer going in the ring to fight always looks for a knockout. Tej zaum, it’s not like that. Tab sis, kuv, Kuv tab tom nrhiav rau cov knockout. And Emanuel said knockouts sell.

Q

You said that you weren’t impressed with Kovalev’s performance over Jean Pascal. Do you want to put on a better performance? Do you feel pressure to put on a better performance since you said that? What do you think about that?

A. Stevenson

I’m not going to put pressure on myself. “Superman” tsis xav tias siab. Kuv yuav siv kuv boxing kev txawj, thiab kuv yuav mus siv kuv lub taub hau nyob rau hauv lub nplhaib. I don’t have to put pressure on something like that. I don’t feel like that. I’m the man. I’m the guy to get beat.

Q

Yog Sakio Bika thawj tus nrog sib ntaus lawv muab rau koj?

A. Stevenson

Hmoob, it was the first. He was the first to open. We’re happy, and we don’t have a problem. And I know Sakio he was light–ua tsis tau, super middleweight champion. It’s very good, vim hais tias nws yog ib tug zoo boxer. He was champion last two fights. That’s a good opportunity for him, heev, mus los ntawm lub teeb ib tug Heavyweight mus tua kuv. And it’s a good opportunity for me, heev.

Q

Kuv xav nug koj nyob li cas point koj puas tau hais rau koj tus kheej, “Kuv muaj sib ntaus,” los yog “Kuv xav mus tua Sergey Kovalev los koom ua tag nrho cov koj cov menyuam nyob rau hauv division.” At what point did you say that in your career?

A. Stevenson

I don’t think about Kovalev now. I think about Bika. It doesn’t matter what I said now because I have a fight coming up with Bika. Tab sis, kom kuv xav sib ntaus rau lub npe, tab sis tam sim no–rau tam sim no kuv twb tau txais Bika nyob rau hauv kuv lub ntsej muag.

Q

Koj twb tsis qhuas nrog rau txoj kev uas Kovalev ntsia nyob rau hauv lub sib ntaus rau lwm lub lim tiam tiv thaiv Pascal. Yog vim li cas?

A. Stevenson

I’m not impressed by it because this is the first big fight Pascal had since Bernard and he fights one time a year before Bernard Hopkins. Yog li ntawd, in four years he fights one time. Yog li ntawd, yog vim li cas kuv tsis impressed txog hais tias, vim hais tias Pascal tsis yog ib tug active boxer zoo li nws siv yuav rov qab nyob rau hauv lub hnub.

 

Q

Koj paub hais tias Kovalev, because of the WBC is going to be mandatory. I want to know how hard will you press for that mandatory if you’re successful again.

A. Stevenson

Ntawm chav kawm, Kuv paub. I’m ready to fight a title. Tab sis, Kuv cia kuv pab neeg, Al HAYMON, tu txog hais tias. Then after that Kovalev we can unify the title. It’s not a problem for me because the two titles he gets now he gets Bernard Hopkins’ title, thiab kuv yuav tsum tua Bernard Hopkins.

Q

Qhov no yog ib sib ntaus uas yuav yuav nyob rau lub teb chaws TV nyob rau hauv lub tebchaws United States, free TV. Have you given any thought about the fact that you’ll be performing in front of an audience probably bigger than has ever seen you fight ever?

A. Stevenson

Ntawm chav kawm. This is a good opportunity for that. And first of all, Kuv xav ua tsaug rau Al Haymon rau cov uas, heev, vim hais tias, that’s him putting on the show. And since Muhammad Ali and Sugar Ray Leonard, back in the day it was free. Tam sim no, we offer the public the fight for free and that’s a great opportunity for me. Yog li ntawd, I have a good performance for Sakio Bika. Tab sis, I know Sakio Bika is a tough opponent and he’s very awkward and tough. We’ll prepare for that, thiab peb npaj txhij. Nws kuj yog zoo heev rau cov hluas cov me nyuam, saib kev sib ntaus. Nws yog ib tug zoo lub sij hawm rau txhua leej txhua tus.

Q
