DETROIT (May 10, 2018) – Two-time Olympic Gold Medalist and unified women’s super middleweight champion Claressa Shields worked out for the media and spoke to local youth Wednesday at The Downtown Boxing Gym in Detroit. The boxing star is two weeks into training camp ahead of her SHOWTIME BOXING: SPECIAL EDITION showdown Friday, İyun 22 at 10 dək. ET/PT live on SHOWTIME from the historic Masonic Temple.

 

 

 

The 23-year-old Shields, who grew up in nearby Flint, will attempt to become a two-division world champion when she faces unified women’s 154-pound champion Hanna Gabriels for the vacant IBF and WBA Middleweight World Titles.

 

 

 

Ahead of the crucial middleweight world title fight, Shields has altered her preparations significantly. She has changed her diet, switched to renowned trainer John David Jackson and has moved her camp from Michigan to Florida.

 

 

Joining Shields at the workout on Wednesday was Dmitriy Salita, Founder of Salita Promotions. Here is what Shields and Salita had to say.

Claressa Shields:

On fighting in Detroit…

“To fight in Detroit for a world title on SHOWTIME and to be mentioned with great Detroit fighters like Tommy Hearns and James Toney is incredible. Those guys are known worldwide. It shows me that I have a chance to do the same thing and bring attention to women’s boxing. That’s my goal overall – to make sure women’s boxing lives for a long time”

 

On moving camp to Florida…

“You really can’t deal with unnecessary distractions getting ready for big world title fights like I have been having. You want people pushing you to be better and not have people pulling you down.

 

 

 

“I was dealing with everybody who’s around pulling me left and right and calling me at 2, 3 o’clock in the morning. All this negative stuff that goes on in Flint that 23-year-olds are being involved in is something I can’t be involved in. That initially made me do the whole move. I have to stay focused and work hard on my goal of beating Hanna Gabriels and capturing the world title in a second division.

 

On training with John David Jackson…

“We’re on the same page and we’re always talking about the game plan for Hanna and what we’re going to do and what we have to work on. John doesn’t try to change my style, he just makes small adjustments to improve the good things that got me to this level. I feel great about this camp so far and I look forward to putting it all together in June.”

 

On Hanna Gabriels…

“Hanna is a talented world champion. I have a lot of respect for her skills and accomplishments. It takes great, competitive matches to bring women’s boxing to an elite level and that’s what I want to do. I always said that I want to fight the best. Iyun 22, I look forward to putting on a special performance for the fans watching the fight on SHOWTIME and those at the Masonic Temple. It’s going to be a special night and I can’t wait to capture my second division world title close to home in front of my hometown fans live on SHOWTIME.”

 

On being an inspiration for kids…

“Kids need to know that everything is possible. I decided to be an Olympic gold medalist at the age of 11. I did it when I was 17. How do you stay focused on one goal all that time? Take one step towards it every day, sometimes small and sometimes bigger. Lakin, the important thing is to keep focused on your goal. If you persevere and work hard enough, truly everything is possible”

 

Dmitriy Salita, Founder of Salita Promotions

“We had a tremendous media turnout at today’s media workout at Detroit Downtown Boxing Club. It’s very special to see such support for Claressa, who’s story and success transcends boxing and is very much in line with the comeback story of Flint and Detroit – “America’s Greatest Comeback City”.

 

 

 

“It’s very meaningful for kids in Detroit gyms like the Downtown Boxing Club to see someone that came from a similar background and neighborhood that they did and accomplish all the amazing things that Claressa is doing. Claressa makes them see and believe that through hard work, belief and focus everything is possible. Boxing is a tool that she has mastered with which to deliver this very important message.

 

 

 

“June 22 is going to be one of the biggest fights of the year and one of the most meaningful and memorable moments in sports and women’s boxing.”

“I have to drop down and see how I feel (ilk),"Shelds dedi. “I think I could make 160 easy, I’m going to be bigger and stronger than any girl.

 

 

 

“Hammer just wants to scope. I think she’s pretty scared to be honest. She is more worried about me than I am about her. I’m going to kick Hammer’s ass. People think Hammer is more skilled than me so I can’t wait to show her that she’s not.”

 

 

 

Çəkic, who is expected to fight in a co-featured bout on the next Shields card, was interviewed by SHOWTIME analyst Steve Farhood and expressed excitement to make her U.S. debut and eventually face the American champion.

 

 

 

“It’s a great combination me and her on the same card,” Hammer said. “I can’t wait to show the fans who Christina Hammer is. That will be the best fight ever. It will be the game-changer for female boxing. It’s our time to shine.

The former world champion Nelson (17-1-3, 2 Kos) became the 173rd undefeated fighter to suffer their first professional loss on ShoBox: New Generation.

 

 

 

“I’m not happy because I didn’t win, but other than that I thought I executed pretty well,” said the 41-year-old Nelson. “I gave her a better fight than she was expecting.

 

 

 

“No disrespect to Claressa, she doesn’t have great power. She has great speed and she overwhelms you with a lot of punches. My movement threw her off like I knew it would but knowing she was the champion, I needed to just push a little bit more.”

 

 

 

Ilə ShoBox ATƏT-xüsusiyyət, Jesse Hernandez narrowly defeated Ernesto Garza via split-decision in an action-packed fight that was scored 95-94 Hernandez, 95-93 Garza, 97-93 Hernandez.

 

 

 

After a close first round, Garza floored Hernandez with a flush left hand to the nose in the closing moments of the second round. Hernandez recovered, and while the middle rounds featured tremendous back-and-forth action, Hernandez seemingly had no trouble walking down Garza, who’s punches seemed to lack any real power.

“I’m not completely happy with my performance. I have to control my distance and my range a little bit better. I need to go back to the gym and work on those things. Before the summer comes I hope to have another fight and I hope it’s on SHOWTIME.

 

 

 

“I give Garza a lot of credit for getting in the ring and knocking me down. He hung in there for 10 rounds even after I caught him with some good shots. He was able to withstand those shots, but all that said, I still think it should have been a unanimous decision.”

 

 

 

Garza countered that sentiment.

 

 

 

“I thought it was a bogus decision,” Garza said. “I don’t understand that last judge’s card. I was happy with everything that I did. I executed well and did everything I needed to do to win the fight.

 

 

 

“I’m really disappointed with the outcome. I felt that I won. Mənə, I won a majority of the rounds and I knocked him down. I know knocking your opponent down usually leads to you winning the fight.”

 

 

 

Undefeated Uzbekistan power-puncher Shohjahon Ergashev handed Sonny Fredrickson the first loss of his career with an impressive third round TKO in the opening bout of the ShoBox veriliş.

“The ref saved him,” Ergashev said. “If he let him stay on his feet any longer I would have knocked him out. He couldn’t handle my power.

 

 

 

“At this stage of my career, I am in the best shape of my life and the best I have felt. This is my time right now, especially because I am training with Rick (Phillips) və (Javan) Şəkər (Hill Steward). That’s what leads to all of my knockout power.

 

 

 

“I’m ready for whatever comes next. I’m ready for more fights in the U.S., and I want to keep getting more exposure to show off my skills. I’m ready to fight anybody in America.”

Claressa SHIELDS:

 

 

"Tori daha çox təcavüz gətirir, a lot more fight than a lot of my previous opponents. Kağız üzərində, o qarşı-qarşıya olduğunuz və daha yaxşı mübarizə qoya bilər hər hansı bir rəqib yaxşı CV var.

 

 

 

"Hər kəs mənim ölçüsü məni düzgün qiymətləndirmir. Mən deyiləm kimi mənim frame görünür 140 amma həqiqətən mən bir 168. Hər kəs qazana bilər düşünür döyüşə gedir, but once that right hand lands everything changes. I’m going to go after her in the first round and get her out of there like Nikki Adler.

 

 

 

"Mən rəqib təzyiq tətbiq gözləyirik, və bəzi çirkli taktika istifadə etmək. O, daha çox təcrübə var, lakin çox onun həvəskar təcrübə danışmaq zaman.

 

 

 

“She’s confident and she believes in herself. She thinks I haven’t earned my place yet. She doesn’t think I throw hard punches. Speed is power. She doesn’t get that.

 

 

 

"Bu çətin düşərgə olmuşdur, Mən, həqiqətən, özüm sövq. Mən adətən nə altı həftə, bu dəfə mən səkkiz həftə etdi. Mən özüm əlavə iki həftə vermək istəyirdi ki, mən mükəmməl forma idi bilirdi ki, mən avqustun bəri mübarizə deyil.

 

 

 

"Mən qələbə ilə il başlamaq heç bir şübhə yoxdur, amma rəqabətli mübarizə kimi görürük. Mən qələbə qazanmaq üçün gedirəm amma altıncı mən KO onun inanıram, yeddinci dəyirmi ".

 

 

 

Tori NELSON:

 

 

"Mən underdog deyiləm bilirik, amma doqquz nəfər azalıb etdik. O, bir pro kimi bir portatif hələ vurdu deyil. Zaman Claressa pro çevirdi, Mən nəhayət onun üz istədiyiniz bilirdi.

 

 

 

"A qələbə Mən gəlib nə. I expect nothing different. I hope it would expose female boxing and not only open doors for me, lakin digər qadın boksçular məndən sonra gələn.

 

 

 

"Mən bir qadın mübarizə izləmək üçün daha əyləncəli hiss. qadın düşdü almaq zaman, Onlar doğru geri almaq və yenidən sonra getmək. men sökülür almaq zaman, onlar yenidən hit almaq istəmirəm, çünki gizlətmək başlamaq. Belə ki, biz kişilər kimi çox ödənilmiş almaq lazımdır.

 

 

 

"Burada olmaqdan mübarək deyiləm, but I’m not a winner until I complete what I came here to do. And that’s win. The odds are definitely against me, amma dünya şok gedirəm.

 

 

 

“I want to take her into the deep waters. We don’t think she can beat us in a 10-round fight.

 

 

 

"Onlar mənə bir şey vermək fikrində deyilik. I have to be a dog and go in there and win this fight. I’ve always been aggressive. Why change anything for her?"

 

 

 

JESSE HERNANDEZ

 

 

"Mən yalnız bir adı mübarizə yaxın almaq üçün çalışıram. əsas məqsədi indi reytinq qədər hərəkət, və mən doğru yolda Ben. 10 dəyirmi mübarizədə Burada qələbə mənim karyera üçün böyük olacaq.

 

 

 

"Bir bütün ətrafında döyüş olan mən çalışıram ki, bir şey. Amma təcrübə və döyüşlərdə almaq qədər bir yaxşı dairəvi qırıcı ola bilməz ki, mən indi bunu çalışıram budur. Mən və davam daha el almaq istəyirəm.

 

 

 

"Bir Southpaw mübarizə mənim üçün problem deyil. Mən mövqe keçid edə bilərsiniz, lakin mən düşünmək bir şey və ya plan deyil. Bu, sadəcə bir döyüşdə təbii olur.

 

 

 

"Mən həmişə özüm iman etdik, Mən vaxtı gəldiyində. Mən onu geri almaq və bir üst səviyyəyə almaq bilər ki. The wins over two undefeated fighters did a lot for my confidence. I knew I could do it, lakin mən məxsusdur və mən üst səviyyədə rəqabət edə bilər ki, başqaları göstərdi. "

 

 

 

ERNESTO GARZA

 

 

"Mən təzyiq gətirmək istəyirəm, and he’s a pressure fighter too. We’ll see who backs up once we start throwing punches.

 

 

 

“I like to face fighters who come forward like him so I think everything will work for me. I plan on applying the pressure, sonuncu turda yorğun onu əldə, və onu həyata alaraq.

 

 

 

"O, keçid çalışır, but I think that’s when he gets off-balance. He won’t bring anything I haven’t seen before.

 

 

 

“I’m fighting at my natural weight class this time. My last fight on ShoBox (namağlup Jon Fernandez qarşı) Mən daha çox çəki ilə mübarizə etdi.

 

 

 

“I don’t think his height and reach will give me any issues. I’ve been working with a lot of guys in the gym who have similar size and style. We’re ready for anything.

 

 

 

“A win would be a great step for me and my career. All the doors would open up for us.”

"Mən fərqli bir atmosfer Ştatları burada ki, burada təlim sevgi. Bu real professional quraşdırma var, Mən bacarıq və texnika Sugar Hill ilə burada çox yaxşı təlim kazanılmış ki, hiss.

 

 

 

"Mən o təcrübəli döyüşçü olduğunu bilirik. O, namağlup və o mübarizə gələn. Bu, bizim üçün böyük bir fürsət var.

 

 

 

"Mən çox Showtime olmaq qürur və milli ifşa bu cür əldə etmək xoşbəxtəm. A qələbə dünyanın ən yaxşı kiçik Welter Siklet perspektivləri biri kimi məni sement olardı.

 

 

 

"Mən Detroit Kronk Boks Gym bir çox daha yaxşı təlim kazanılmış. Son təlim-məşq toplanışı boks Amerika stil və bu düşərgəyə giriş həqiqətən gərgin sparring ilə texnika və taktika təkmilləşdirilmiş idi.

 

 

 

"Mən 11-0 ilə 11 knockouts. Mən ştamplayıcı və mən onu döymək istəyirəm, amma məsafə üçün təlim etdik. Mən ilk turda və səkkizinci turda kimsə döymək təlim etdik.
