Here is what the fighters had to say Wednesday from Wolves Den Gym in El Paso:

 

Josesito LOPEZ

 

 

 

Having Robert Garcia in my corner has given me the training and preparation of an elite fighter. It’s a big difference. He’s one of the best trainers in the world and I’m going to help show that on Saturday.

 

 

 

I’ve been training with Robert for quite some time now. I’ve been getting sharp working with other elite fighters in the gym. It’s kept me on my toes and that’s what I needed.

 

 

 

Cruz is tough, he’s undefeated and he comes focused to win. He’s a good fighter but I’m here this week to prove that I’m a better fighter.

 

 

 

Experience will definitely play a big part. But I also don’t think he’s faced anyone with the skills I have. All of my losses are to great fighters. I feel like I’ve taken a big step forward here.

 

 

 

It feels great to be headlining in El Paso on FOX and FOX Deportes. I bring exciting fights and I’m always in wars. Saturday will be no different.

 

 

 

I’m really excited to finally be fighting in Texas, it’s something I’ve looked for and asked about for many years. Texas holds a big piece of my heart and I’m ready to give the fans here a show on Saturday.

 

MIGUEL CRUZ

 

 

 

This was an excellent training camp. It was a hard camp. It was extensive but I got through it and it has me feeling very prepared. It was absolutely the most strenuous camp I’ve had. I always train hard, but this one in particular, I had extra motivation.

 

 

 

To get the win I need to use my jab and work the body. There are more aspects of it, but those two things are essential for me winning this fight.

 

 

 

I’ve fought a lot of good, jeune, strong fighters recently. Past a certain level you learn that you can’t just knock everybody out. You learn to weather the storm and use your energy more efficiently. I’ve learned a lot about myself as a fighter.

 

 

 

Josesito throws looping punches. That’s tough because it’s a bit unconventional. He throws looping punches that can take away your equilibrium. He’s got a lot of experience and that’s definitely a major factor in what I’ve been preparing for.

 

 

 

It feels great to be on this stage, but at the same time I know I earned my spot to be here. I remember watching Josesito fighting in 2011 sur le Mayweather vs. Ortiz undercard and I knew right then that I was going to be in the ring with these guys.

 

Anthony Dirrell

 

 

 

I had a great, eight-week long training camp with great sparring. I feel good and I’m ready to fight for sure.

 

 

 

I know that Han is a warrior. He’s rugged and that’s why I chose to fight him here in his backyard. I know that he’s going to bring a fight for me.

 

 

 

It’s just going to be me and him in the ring. The audience can’t help him. All his fans can’t help him. Coaches can only help him between rounds. I’m going to block everything else out and just focus on him.

 

 

 

I just need to stick to what we worked on in training camp. We have to implement those strategies and you’ll see it come Saturday night.

 

 

 

I’m a better, stronger and wiser fighter these days. I’ve been through a lot to stay in world title contention. Everybody knows how badly I want my title back. Samedi, everyone will see that I’m a champion. I’m ready for anyone with a belt.

 

ABRAHAM HAN

 

 

 

I’m so happy to be fighting at home on this big stage. In many ways this is a dream come true and something that’s been a long time coming. I can’t wait to perform in front of my people.

 

 

 

I know I’m the underdog versus Dirrell but that doesn’t bother me at all. I always train to be better than anyone expects me to be. This fight will be no difference.

 

 

 

This is a big fight for me and I’ve been training so hard to put on a great show for my hometown fans. This is a great fight town and I’m going to give the fans something to cheer about.

 

JORGE LARA

 

 

 

I’m so excited to get in the ring. I’m still eating right now leading up to the weigh-in and I feel ready to go. I’m eager to step into the ring.

 

 

 

I’m not worried about Claudio Marrero. I’m just staying loose and focused on what I have to do. Marrero has to focus on me because he’s never fought a guy like me. I’m going to stay loose and bring the fight to him.

 

 

 

The world title is my destiny. This is one shot closer to a world title. I’m highly ranked but the champions don’t want to give me a chance. So I will have to fight my way there.

 

 

 

I’m like a dog going after a bone in the ring. Je veux juste me battre. I’m here to take the fight right to him.

 

CLAUDIO MARRERO

 

 

 

It was a very hard training camp like always. I take it very seriously and I’m ready for this fight on Saturday night.

 

 

 

I know I’m facing a tough Mexican fighter who will leave it all in the ring. We worked very hard on a plan for him.

 

 

 

He must be mistaken if he thinks I’ve never seen a fighter like him before. It’s the other way around. He’ll definitely know what level I’m on after Saturday night.

 

 

 

My style is to both come forward, but have the ability to move backward. It’s all about what the fight dictates and what my corner wants.

I’m fighting a former world champion at 168-pounds. Anthony Dirrell is a great fighter and I know that I’m going to have to avoid his power. I’m going to be quick and use all my skills.

 

 

 

 

This is going to be a great fight on April 28. I’m fighting in my hometown of El Paso, and I do not lose here. Something about this town turns me into a ‘super saiyan.

 

 

 

 

I’m going to be strong and when I get the opportunity, I’m looking to hurt Dirrell. This is a fight that can get me to a world title fight.

Former super middleweight world champion Anthony Dirrell takes on El Paso’s Abraham Han in a 10-round 168-pound skirmish. The night also features unbeaten Mexican featherweight contenderJorge Lara clashing with Dominican brawler Claudio Marrero in the 10-round opening bout that kicks off coverage at 8:30 p.m. ET/5:30 p.m. PT.

 

 

 

Billets pour le spectacle, qui est promu par Promotions TGB, are on sale today, Mars 28 à 10 a.m. MT and can be purchased through Ticketmaster.

 

 

 

This is an all-action show that has all of the elements that boxing fans have come to love,” a déclaré Tom Brown, Président de TGB Promotions. “Miguel Cruz is a talented rising contender who will be taking a major step up against a hardened veteran in Josesito Lopez. Anthony Dirrell is a former world champion who is anxious to get back into the title picture and El Paso’s own Abraham Han has title aspirations of his own. And Jorge Lara and Claudio Marrero are two of the biggest punchers in the featherweight division. It promises to be a very entertaining show for boxing fans.

 

 

 

Lopez (35-7, 19 KOs) is a battle-tested veteran who has been in the ring with some of the top boxers in the sport, including Marcos Maidana, Saul “Canelo” Alvarez and Jessie Vargas. The 33-year-old Lopez of Riverside, California scored one of the biggest wins of his career when he stopped Victor Ortiz by TKO in 2012. He has been on a two-fight win streak since losing to Andre Berto and in his last fight he defeated Saul Corral by a unanimous decision on April 9, 2017 live on FS1.

 

 

 

Miguel Cruz has not faced a fighter on my level,” a déclaré Lopez. “I’m the most experienced fighter that Cruz will have fought. I’m confident in my abilities and the fact that I will come out with a victory. I’m ready to go straight through Miguel Cruz and prove I’m one of the best welterweights in the world.

 

 

 

Croix (17-0, 11 KOs) will be taking a major step forward in his career when he takes on Lopez. The 27-year-old Cruz of Lake Mary, Florida was a member of the Puerto Rican national team as an amateur and picked up four victories in 2017. In his last fight he battled adversity by overcoming two cuts to score a unanimous decision over David Grayton on Nov. 21 on FS1 and also defeated then unbeaten Alex Martin twice in 2017 in a pair of exciting contests on FS1.

 

 

 

I am incredibly excited to have a fight of this magnitude because this is what I’ve always worked for,” said Cruz. “I’m so ready to test my skills against somebody like Josesito Lopez. I belong to a new era in boxing, and I’m going to shine for the world on April 28. This is going to be an amazing fight for the fans and I’m ready for everyone to enjoy my performance.

 

 

 

Dirrell (31-1-1, 24 KOs), a former super middleweight world champion from Flint, Michigan, is coming off a technical decision victory over Denis Douglin in November on FS1. The 33-year-old Dirrell won the title with a unanimous decision over Sakio Bika in 2015 before dropping a majority decision in 2016 to Badou Jack. Depuis cette perte, Dirrell has won four straight, including a TKO victory over current 168-pound world champion Caleb Truax in 2016.

 

 

 

Abraham Han is a good fighter coming off of a tough draw with J’Leon Love, and a guy you can’t look past,” Saïd Dirrell. “Caleb Truax proved that by beating James DeGale for the title, so I’m truly focused on this fight right now. He’s a tall, switch-hitter who comes straight forward, but that’s nothing I can’t handle because I’m always ready and in shape to stick to my game plan and execute. I’m always looking for the knockout, and if it comes, then it comes, and I’ll get him out of there.

 

 

 

Ils (26-3-1, 16 KOs) returns to fight in his hometown of El Paso for the ninth time, including a victory he picked up at Don Haskins Center in his fifth pro fight. The 33-year-old is looking to rebound from a technical draw against J’Leon Love last September, in a fight many thought Han was winning before the referee stopped the fight due to a cut caused by an accidental headbutt. He had won three fights in a row heading into that bout against Love.

 

 

 

Anthony Dirrell probably sees me as someone that he can beat while he waits for a title shot, but I’m looking to mess up his plans,” said Han. “I felt like I won my last fight with J’Leon and would have easily beat him if it wasn’t stopped. This is another great opportunity to fight in my hometown of El Paso. I’ll focus on winning round-by-round and putting on a great show for my fans. I know everyone is going to come out and support me and help carry me to this victory.

 

 

 

Lara (29-0-1, 21 KOs) has scored two victories, including a knockout against former champion Fernando Montiel, since he had a technical draw against Jesus Rojas in 2015. He knocked down Montiel four times on the way to the first round stoppage in their April 2016 showdown on FOX. The 27-year-old southpaw from Guadalajara, Mexico has shown heavy hands for a featherweight and is coming off a TKO victory over Mario Briones in his last fight on May 20 sur FS1.

 

 

 

I have been training with former champion Alejandro Gonzalez, and four weeks out from the fight, I am already in excellent condition and in tremendous fighting shape,” a déclaré Lara. “I know that this is a very important fight, and that Marrero is a very tough opponent, but I am going to be the winner because I am determined to continue on my road toward winning a world title. Après cela, we’ll see which champion will be ready to give me the opportunity.

 

 

 

Marrero (22-2, 16 KOs) was riding an eight-fight win streak before losing by knockout to Jesus Rojas in his last fight. Inside of that eight-fight win streak the 29-year-old Dominican southpaw scored a sensational knockout victory over Carlos Zambrano to earn an interim featherweight title on FS1. The only other blemish on Marrero’s record was a unanimous decision loss to former world champion Jesus Cuellar in 2013.

 

 

 

I’m excited to be fighting on April 28 on this great show in El Paso,” dit Marrero. “I’m fighting an undefeated tough Mexican fighter, but this is the type of fight I wanted to put myself back into title contention. I’m really excited to get in there. Come fight night, you will see ‘The Matrixin full effect. Don’t miss it because it’s going to be a great fight.

LAS VEGAS (Avril 29, 2017) – Champion poids plume par intérim WBA nouvellement couronné Claudio Marrero (22-1, 16 KOs) choqué auparavant invaincu Carlos Zambrano (26-1, 12 KOs) avec un KO au premier tour dans l'événement principal de Premier Champions de boxe sur FS1 et Fox Deportes, Samedi nuit de Sam's Town Live à Las Vegas.
“Il y a tellement d'émotions qui me traversent la tête en ce moment, que je ne peux toujours pas comprendre ce que ça fait d'être un champion maintenant,” dit Marrero. “Je ne le laisserai pas me distraire, parce que je combattrai celui qui est le meilleur dans ma catégorie de poids. Je savais quel genre de combattant j'allais affronter et je savais ce qu'il fallait faire. j'avais faim”
Le combat s'est terminé brusquement comme Marrero de Saint-Domingue, La République dominicaine a lancé une main gauche droite solide comme un roc qui a envoyé Lima, Le Zambrano du Pérou sur la toile, le rendant incapable de se tenir debout et l'arbitre Vic Drakulich a annulé le combat à 1:30 du seul et unique tour. Marrero prolonge une séquence de sept victoires consécutives.
“Après avoir été inactif pendant un an, bien sûr mon timing était un peu décalé je ne suis pas du tout content de ma performance,” dit Zambrano. “C'est un combat qui était attendu depuis longtemps et je sais que Marrero me lorgne depuis un moment, donc c'est juste malheureux la façon dont les choses se sont terminées.
“Je dois revenir aux États-Unis et trouver des partenaires d'entraînement qui peuvent vraiment m'aider à atteindre le niveau que je veux être,” suite Zambrano. “Pour que mon record soit battu à ce stade, c'est vraiment décevant, je n'ai pas d'autres mots pour le décrire.”
Le co-événement principal de la télédiffusion FS1 et FOX Deportes s'est terminé par un TKO au sixième tour par un poids moyen affamé Nathaniel Gallimore (18-1-1, 15 KOs) de Kingston, Jamaïque à propos Jeison Rosario (12-1, 9 KOs) de Saint-Domingue, République dominicaine. Les deux combattants se sont balancés au premier tour, Rosario l'emportant sur les trois tableaux de bord des juges. Chapelet, qui n'avait jamais dépassé le quatrième tour a commencé à ralentir au cinquième lorsque Gallimore a pris le relais.
“Je suis entré dans le combat confiant, puis à un moment donné, quelque chose s'est passé, mon corps a commencé à ralentir,” dit Rosario. “Je me suis un peu fatigué et j'ai commencé à me battre un peu bâclé. Mon plan est de revenir en arrière et de commencer à travailler régulièrement sur mon jab, c'était ma faiblesse pendant tout le combat.”
Gallimore est sorti du coin au sixième tour déterminé à mettre fin au combat et a réussi. Il a laissé tomber Rosario, mais le dominicain se leva, seulement pour être lâché par une coupe supérieure dure. À la fin, c'est un crochet du gauche qui a envoyé Rosario sur la toile pour la troisième et dernière fois alors que l'arbitre Jay Nady a annulé le combat à 2:15 du sixième tour.
“Il se battait vraiment sale tout le combat, Je pense qu'il savait qu'il avait été blessé dès le début,” dit Gallimore. “Je savais que j'avais beaucoup plus d'expérience alors j'ai juste commencé à le décomposer tour par tour et c'est ce qui m'a valu la victoire. C'était la première fois qu'il faisait autant de tours, donc je pense que ça l'a vraiment atteint au point où il essayait juste de tenir les derniers tours. Je suis venu le finir et c'est ce que j'ai fait.”
Dans l'événement principal de la télédiffusion FS2 et FOX Deportes, perspective super légère Ladarius Miller (13-1, 4 KOs) faire une performance impressionnante avant de s'arrêter Jésus gutierrez (14-2-1, 4 KOs) dans le huitième et dernier tour de leur affrontement.
“je suis super content de ma prestation,” dit Miller. “C'est le meilleur Ladarius Miller que j'ai montré. Je le connaissais en tant que combattant donc je savais ce que je devais faire sur le ring. Je pensais l'avoir eu au premier tour avec l'uppercut, mais il était en bien meilleure forme que je ne le pensais. Il a pris les coups mais à la fin je savais que je finirais en tête avec la victoire. Je suis juste prêt à remonter sur le ring et à regarder vers mon prochain défi.”
Miller a éliminé Gutierrez avec une combinaison de mouvements et de mains gauches principales pour prendre le contrôle de la première partie du combat. Gutierrez a tenté de réduire la distance entre lui et Miller, mais a été incapable de rassembler suffisamment d'attaques pour ralentir son adversaire.
“Ce était un grand combat, Je pense que nous avons donné aux fans ce qu'ils voulaient voir,” dit Gutierrez. “Je n'ai que du respect pour Ladarius, Il est sorti ce soir et a montré de quoi il était fait. J'ai maintenu la pression et j'ai pensé que ce serait suffisant pour l'avoir.”
Plusieurs rafales de va-et-vient ont défini les deux derniers tours du combat avant que Miller ne puisse finalement utiliser une grosse main droite pour frapper Gutierrez et forcer l'arbitre Russell Mora à arrêter le combat à 2:34 au huitième tour.
Le combat d'ouverture sur FS2 et FOX Deportes a vu l'ancien champion du monde Layla McCarter(39-13-5, 10 KOs) dominer et finalement arrêter Szilvia Szabados (15-10, 6 KOs) au septième tour de leur combat des poids welters.
“J'ai vu au début du combat une opportunité, aller pour le corps et c'est ce que j'ai fait,” dit McCarter. “Elle a subi beaucoup de dégâts et était une adversaire coriace. J'ai senti que j'aurais pu le rendre beaucoup plus difficile, J'ai eu un si bon camp d'entraînement que j'aurais aimé pouvoir livrer le Layla que je sais pouvoir apporter.”
Szabados est sorti agressif dès le début, mais le concurrent vétéran McCarter l'a enlevée avec des coups de poing tout au long des premiers tours avant que Szabados ne commence à s'user et à devenir frustré.
“Elle était une grande adversaire pour moi, il y a certainement beaucoup plus de choses sur lesquelles je dois rentrer à la maison et travailler,” dit Szabados. “Global, elle est venue pour gagner et elle l'a montré. J'ai apporté beaucoup de ténacité, mais à la fin elle est arrivée en tête.”
L'arbitre Tony Weeks a déduit un point de Szabados pour des coups à l'arrière de la tête au début du septième tour avant qu'une dernière rafale de McCarter n'oblige l'arbitre à arrêter le combat 56 secondes dans la ronde.

World-Class Dominican Boxers Payano, Marrero and Vicente Sign Long-Term Agreements with King Kong Boxing Management

 

Well-known Florida-based manager/trainer Herman Caicedo proudly announces the signing of three of his world-class Dominican fighters, former WBA Super World Bantamweight Champion and WBA #2, WBC #11 contender Juan Carlos Payano, WBA #3 featherweight ClaudioThe Matrix” Marrero, and well-respected featherweight contender YenifelThe Lightning” Vicente, to multi-year managerial agreements with Jay Jimenez of King Kong Boxing Management.
The deal frees Caicedo, who formerly held both duties with the three fighters since their amateur days, to focus solely on training, while Jimenez takes the reins over furthering their careers in the professional boxing business.
32-year-old southpaw Payano (18-1, 9 KOs) won the WBA strap in September 2014 by stopping long-time world champion Anselmo Moreno. He then defeated and lost a rematch to Ohio’s Rau’shee Warren. He was last seen scoring a TKO 7 over Isao Gonzalo Carranza in January of this year.
King Kong Boxing exploded on the scene with (former interim WBA Heavyweight Champion) Luis Ortiz and has fast-tracked the careers of several Cuban fighters,” said Payano. “I am very happy to be working with Jay Jimenez. And my trainer Herman has always been very honest with us and protected us from the sharks in boxing. Through his philosophy of hard work and dedication, I became a world champion. I am happy he will now be able to concentrate on training, which he is the best in the world at.
Marrero (21-1, 15 KOs) will face Peru’s Carlos Zambrano for his interim WBA World Championship, as well as the IBO World Championship, sur Février 24 in Palm Springs, Californie.
Joining the King Kong team is great, but as we see it, we have been part of this team for some time,” dit Marrero. “Jay has always helped us with anything we needed. It’s just official now. King Kong Boxing Management is looking to bring more superstar elite fighters to boxing’s forefront, through aggressive marketing and strategic alliances with top promoters in the business.
Vicente (30-3-2, 22 KOs) is one of the world’s most exciting fighters. Currently riding a five-fight winning streak, the power-punching 30-year-old is a television favorite for his all-action fighting style.
Herman has done a great job with my training and my career,” a déclaré Vicente. “He has worked very hard for me and all his fighters. Now he will get some expert help from King Kong Boxing Management. I am looking forward to a very bright future working with these two great men.

Payano, Marrero and Yenifel Vicente are superstar, elite-level fighters,” said Jimenez. “Payano is a former champion, Marrero a soon to be champion and Vicente on a fast track to becoming a champion as well. This is exactly what King Kong Boxing is interested in signing: the very best. I have no doubt that Payano will once again become champion this year. Working with Herman is easy and inspiring. He brings the same approach to his training that I do to management. He is professional, intelligent, and a no-nonsense worker.

I am very sad and ecstatic at the same time,” said Caicedo. “I have been a trainer/ manager for over 23 years and believe that the only way to develop a champion is to avoid the distractions in boxing, such as when some managers change coaches like they change underwear. Malheureusement, most of the time fighters don’t have a say due to financial restraints or influence the manager might have. I did away with that as much as possible by doing most of the managing myself. King Kong Boxing is, de loin, the best management team in the business. These three fighters are special to me because we debuted as pros and became champions together. But I have zero doubt I made the right decision for the guyscareer and future. I want to thank Jay from King Kong Boxing for the trusting in me to work with his fighters over the past few years and for having the vision in the signing of his newest additions.
