BELÉM, PA. (Junho 28, 2017) – Miguel Cruz (16-0, 11 KOs) ganhou uma decisão unânime para derrotar Alex Martin (13-2, 5 KOs) e permaneceu invicto em uma revanche dos meio-médios que encabeçou Premier Boxe dos Campeões TERÇA TOE-de-toe em FS1 eBoxe dos Campeões na Fox Deportes Terça-feira noite do Sands Bethlehem Events Center em Belém, Pa.
Depois de vencer uma decisão dividida contra Martin no confronto de janeiro, Cruz manteve seu recorde perfeito intacto ao marcar dois knockdowns antes de tomar a decisão em seu confronto de 10 rounds.
“Sinceramente, não me senti bem na nossa primeira luta e quando re-assisti, Eu pensei que Martin ganhou,” disse Cruz. “Isso me fez treinar cada vez mais do que nunca para provar que tenho as habilidades e o poder para competir em nível mundial, e acho que fiz isso hoje à noite.”
Cruz começou rápido ao acertar um enorme gancho de esquerda que pegou Martin e o derrubou no final do primeiro round. Martin conseguiu se levantar e se recuperar pouco antes do sino soar para encerrar a rodada.
Martin continuou tentando trabalhar por dentro, mas Cruz estava determinado a empurrar para trás e aterrissou consistentemente com grandes tiros de força. Outro gancho de esquerda na quarta rodada mandou Martin para o tatame novamente, embora ele parecesse menos afetado do que durante o primeiro knockdown.
“Eu estava lutando contra sua luta hoje à noite,” disse Martin. “Eu simplesmente não tive meu melhor desempenho. O primeiro knockdown foi um knockdown real, mas no segundo knockdown ele me acertou na parte de trás da cabeça.”
A quinta rodada viu Martin começar a boxear de forma mais eficaz, pousando várias mãos direitas antes de um gancho de esquerda cair baixo, mandando Cruz para a lona e fazendo com que o árbitro Gary Rosato interrompesse a luta enquanto Cruz se recuperava.
Quando a ação recomeçou, Martin continuou a virar a maré da luta. Seu movimento foi muito eficaz e seu sucesso com a mão esquerda foi consistente ao longo das rodadas de cinco a oito.
“Martin foi super difícil,” disse Cruz. “Eu não achava que ele conseguiria sair da segunda rodada, mas ele definitivamente me deu problemas. Eu estava tentando impedi-lo.”
Abaixo no placar por causa dos knockdowns iniciais, O esforço de retorno de Martin foi curto, pois Cruz conseguiu segurar Martin nas duas últimas rodadas a caminho de ganhar a decisão aos olhos de todos os três juízes pela pontuação de 96-92.
“Eu sabia que estava voltando para a luta, mas não estou dando desculpas hoje à noite,” disse Martin. “Ele ganhou a luta justa e quadrada, parabéns para ele.”
“Treinei para o Martin como se ele fosse o campeão do mundo e é assim que vou treinar para cada luta da minha carreira,” disse Cruz. “Foi uma luta tremenda, Estou feliz por ter conseguido a vitória. Eu só quero voltar para Porto Rico e comemorar meu aniversário amanhã.”
Ação televisionada adicional viu Clarence Booth (15-3, 8 KOs) parar Porto Rico Mercado Antônio (10-3, 9 KOs) na quarta rodada de sua competição meio-médio.
O mais alto Mercado teve sucesso no início da luta, enquanto Booth tentava entrar e atacar o corpo. Mercado acertou um par de mãos direitas limpas em cada uma das duas primeiras rodadas que pareciam atordoar Booth.
“Ele era um lutador duro,” disse Booth. “Eu precisava me soltar para as primeiras rodadas. Fiquei tenso no começo.”
Lutando fora de St. Petersburg, Florida, Booth foi capaz de resistir à tempestade nas duas primeiras rodadas e começou a virar a maré na terceira rodada com uma direita limpa que cambaleou Mercado.
Booth manteve o ritmo e rapidamente colocou Mercado na tela com um par de mãos direitas na quarta rodada. Mercado conseguiu ficar de pé, mas eventualmente Booth rompeu novamente e surpreendeu Mercado com mais mãos direitas. A agitação final levou o árbitro Eric Dali a interromper a luta 1:30 no quarto quadro.
“Eu tive algumas perdas difíceis, mas agora estou em um grande retorno,” disse Booth. “Estou muito feliz por ter esta oportunidade na televisão e fiz o melhor possível. Meu promotor Marshall Kauffman e a King's Promotions me darão ótimas oportunidades no futuro.”
“Ele me acertou com um bom tiro,” said Mercado. “Ele espetou e veio com a mão direita que eu não vi chegando. Voltarei ainda melhor.”

BROOKLYN (Março 5, 2017) – Keith Thurman is the unified welterweight world champion.
Thurman (28-0, 22 KOs) unified boxing’s glamour division with a split-decision victory over Danny Garcia (33-1, 19 KOs) no sábado, defending his WBA belt and picking up Garcia’s WBC crown on boxing’s biggest stage in primetime on CBS from Barclays Center, a casa de BROOKLYN BOXE ™.
O evento, which was produced by SHOWTIME Sports® for the CBS Television Network, marked the highest-attended boxing event in Barclays Center history with 16,533 fans witnessing just the 10th unification in division history.
The close affair, which was only the third time undefeated fighters unified the 147-pound division, was scored 116-112 Thurman, 115-113 Thurman and 115-113 Garcia.
The SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING on CBS main event, which was presented by Premier Boxing Champions, was a tale of effective aggression and ring generalship. Thurman came out swinging and was the busier and more accurate fighter in nine of the 12 rounds. “Uma Vez” Thurman was more tactical in the second half of the fight, utilizing lateral movement and working off his jab. Garcia picked up the pace and was more active in the final rounds, but it was too little too late for the previously undefeated Philadelphia native.
I thought I out-boxed him.” Disse Thurman, who likely earned a spot on boxing’s mythical pound-for-pound list with the impressive victory. “I thought it was a clear victory, but Danny came to fight. I knew when it was split and I had that wide spread, I knew it had to go to me.
I was not giving the fight away. I felt like we had a nice lead, we could cool down. I felt like we were controlling the three-minute intervals every round. My defense was effectivehe wasn’t landing.
A former unified champion at 140-pound, Garcia was aiming to be the first fighter in history to unify titles at 140 e 147 libras.
I came up short hoje à noite,” disse García, who entered the bout with a 7-0 record in world title bouts. “I thought I was the aggressor. I thought I pushed the pace. But it didn’t go my way.
I thought I won and I was pushing the fight. But it is what it is. I’ll come back strong like a true champion. I would love a rematch to get these titles.
SHOWTIME Sports analyst and unofficial scorer Steve Farhood scored the fight 116-112 for Thurman.
Invicto welterweight super Erickson Lubin (18-0, 13 KOs) nocauteado Jorge Cota (23-2, 20 KOs) in a WBC 154-pound title eliminator, dropping the previously once-beaten Cota with a flush overhand left at 1:25 (QUEM) of the fourth round.
Lubin now becomes the No. 2 challenger to WBC Welterweight World Championship Jermell Charlo, who is due a mandatory bout against No. 1 contender Charles Hatley.
The Orlando-native Lubin landed 47 percent of his power shots across four rounds of shutout boxing.
I baited him with the jab. I knew he was going to come with the big shots early,” Lubin said to reporter Jim Gray. “I put a few tricks on him, I landed that overhand and it was night-night. I put my hands down to bait him in, I did a squat and then it was night-night. I was ready to follow-up with a right but he was already out.
At just 21-years-old, Lubin now has an opportunity to become the youngest world champion in boxing today.
That would mean a lot to me; that would mean a lot to Orlando, Florida,” Lubin said. “This is my second time knocking someone out in front of Ray Leonard. He’s one of my favorite fighters of all time. It’s an honor to do this on CBS.
