CHICAGO (April 25, 2015) – Premier boxing Champions took Chicago by stormFredag night with an exhilarating fight card featuring three captivating fights on Spike from the UIC Pavilion.

 

The televised opener showcased Roberto “The Threat” Garcia (37-3, 23 KOs) getting an eight-round unanimous decision win over James Stevenson (22-2, 15 KOs). The first main event saw Daniel “The Miracle Man” Jacobs (29-2, 26 KOs) i 12thround knockout win over the hard-nosed Caleb “Golden” Truax (25-2-2, 15 KOs). The night’s second main event featured Badou Jack “The Ripper” (19-1-1, 12 KOs) earning a majority decision over Anthony “The Dog” Dirrell (27-1-1, 22 KOs).

 

Below are comments offered by the televised fighters as they discussed their performances tonight:

 

ANTHONY DIRRELL

 

“He fought a great fight tonight.

 

“Jeg vil ha en omkamp.”

 

JACK Badou

 

“I was in great shape for tonight and I believed in myself. All the talk from Dirrell and his camp never got to me.

 

“Nothing he did tonight frustrated me. Han er en god fighter, and I didn’t fight a perfect fight, men jeg fikk seieren.

 

“I knew they couldn’t rob me. I thought I clearly won. I had a tough start to my career, but I re-focused myself with my team and got back on track.

 

“It’s a blessing to be part of PBC. Bringing boxing back to primetime is incredible for the sport. I’m not even from this country originally, but I have lots of fans here and this series will only help me gain more.

 

“I want George Groves next.”

 

DANIEL JACOBS

 

“I was in tremendous shape for this fight. I knew I was ready to go 12 runder. He’s a veteran when it comes to fighting down the stretch, so I had to be prepared.

 

“At the end of the sixth round I hit him with a right that caused him to stumble into the ropes. I wasn’t sure at that moment if he was really hurt, or if he was just playing opossum. My corner let me know when I really had him hurt though and I took advantage.

 

“He didn’t hold as much as I thought he might. I’m glad it turned out that way, but I was prepared for it if he did.

 

“He was physically stronger than I thought he’d be, but he never really hurt me tonight.

 

“PBC is an unbelievable outlet for us boxers. My hope is that I can continue to grow my brand and become a star inside and outside of the sport of boxing.

 

“I’m out to prove that I’m the best in this division. I want whoever Al (Haymon) says next.”

 

CALEB TRUAX

 

“I wanted to pressure him, but I couldn’t get my punches off the way I wanted to. His movement was great and it was just an off night for me.

 

“I couldn’t get him to engage me and I think that ended up winning him the fight.

 

“There were a couple good shots that buzzed me, but no shots that really hurt me all that much. There were no devastating blows or anything. A fighter always wants to continue on, but the ref did his job.

 

“PBC is fantastic for bringing in casual fans who wouldn’t have otherwise watched our fights. This is truly groundbreaking. After a fight like that I hope that more and more fans will continue tuning in.

 

“I’m heading back to the gym to put in hard work. Hopefully I’ll be back on another PBC card against whoever Warriors and Al (Haymon) say.”

 

ROBERTO GARCIA

 

“I felt like Stevenson was just trying to survive, whereas I was trying to win. I could tell that my punches were bothering him. I could hear him breathing very heavily.

 

“I was just trying to get back to it tonight. My last fight was almost nine months ago here in this same venue. I needed to get this fight under my belt to keep up my drive and continue working toward the goal.

 

“I usually have to chase the guys I’m fighting. Even with the punchers like (Anthony) Margarito I end up having to chase them down. I took all that previous experience and used it tonight. It basically felt like a sparring session for me.

 

“PBC is an incredible opportunity for fighters like myself and I plan on continuing to take advantage of it.

 

“I have a great team behind me and we’re just interested in moving forward. I’m ready for a big step though. I want Shawn Porter next. I made a commitment to fight him, and I plan on sticking to that.”

 

JAMES STEVENSON

 

“Nothing he was doing was really getting to me. Det er et faktum, I took this fight on a week and a half notice. I honestly thought I pulled it off. Everyone knows who really won tonight.

 

“I was getting in a groove, but then my back started hurting me and that took me out of it a little bit.

 

“PBC gives fighters like me a chance to showcase my skills to so many more people than we’ve been used to.

 

“I’m ready for all takers in my weight class. I’m heading back to the gym immediately and I’ll be ready for whatever’s next.”

Her er hva pressen konferansedeltakerne hadde å si:

 

ANTHONY DIRRELL

 

“I’m a better fighter now because I’m working harder. You have to work harder to stay at this level. Now everybody is gunning for you because you have what they want.

 

“I’m glad that because of this platform, everybody knows what I’ve been through now. People can see that anything is possible. Going through something like defeating cancer has helped me achieve my dreams.

 

“Badou Jack is a good fighter, but he hasn’t fought a guy like me.

 

“På fredag night I just have to hope that Jack doesn’t run. I want him to stand in there with me and we’ll see who’s better. I’m going to test his chin like nobody else has.”

 

JACK Badou

 

“I had the best training camp I’ve ever had and I’m ready to bring the title back to Las Vegas.

 

“I don’t do the social media trash talking, I save it for the ring and på fredag I’m going to show the world why I deserve to be world champion.

 

“I respect Anthony Dirrell for winning the fight against cancer. I lost two of my amateur trainers to that disease and I’ll be dedicating this fight to them.

 

“His team likes to bark and talk a lot of trash but they can’t fight for him. Slik som Fredag night it’s just going to be the two of us in the ring.

 

“I don’t bark, I don’t talk trash, I let my fists do the talking.

 

“Opportunities like this don’t always come around and I will make sure I don’t let this one slip away.”

 

DANIEL JACOBS

 

“Fighting here in Chicago serves as extra motivation for me. I’ve always been the guy fans favored at Barclays Center, and I may have gotten a little spoiled. So I’m excited to be the guy that people want to see lose. Truax will probably have a larger crowd supporting him, and those fans will motivate me to be stronger and fight better på fredag.

 

“People love a great story. I’m extremely proud of my story and for having beat cancer, but let’s not forget about my skill set.

 

“Truax can say he’s tired of hearing about ‘The Miracle Man’ all he wants, but he shouldn’t be thinking about my cancer when we get in the ring. He should just fear me. I’m going to be a cancer to him once we start fighting.

 

“I’m not saying I’m going to knock him out. I’m just saying I’m going to win because that’s what I came to do. I’ll take a win however I can get it.”

 

CALEB TRUAX

 

“This is a huge fight and a huge opportunity for me. It’s a career-changer and life-changer for my career in boxing. I’ve got to be smart in this fight.

 

“I couldn’t be in any better shape right now. Physically I’m mature at 31-years-old. This is the right spot for me and a great opportunity.

 

“I want to thank all of my fans and you should expect to see a lot of people from Minnesota coming down to see me. It’s going to be great to celebrate with all of them.”

Before getting off to an undefeated professional career, 24-year-old Carrillo was a heavily decorated amateur, går 215-14. He was a four-time Chicago Golden Gloves Champion and a two-time National Silver Gloves Champion. He won the National Blue and Gold Tournament and was the runner up in the Mexican Olympic Trials.

 

Tilnavnet “El Lobito”, meaning little wolf, Carrillo is an aggressive boxer/brawler who loves to go to the body. So much so that a high percentage of his professional knockouts have come from body shots.

 

Carrillo is co-trained by his father Antonio and former world champion David Diaz and managed by Ernesto Pedroza.

 

“I am very proud to be signing with Warriors,” said Carrillo. “All of the pieces are in place for me now. I have a strong team to help me reach my dreams of winning the world championship. All I have to do is train hard and win.”

 

“Ramiro makes an excellent addition to our roster,” said Leon Margules of Warriors Boxing. “He is an outstanding young fighter with a bright future. We will be looking to provide him with every opportunity he deserves in boxing. I love that he has the rare gift of being a debilitating body puncher in an age where so few fighters pay attention to the lost art.”

 

“We are all very excited about this opportunity,” said Ernesto Pedroza. “Ramiro is extremely serious about his career and works very hard. From what I see, competition wise, we feel that signing with Warriors will provide him with the platform to become a world champion soon.”

“Jeg er svært glade for å være med å kjempe på Spike TV, og jeg har tenkt å være fyren alle snakker om når kvelden er omme,” Said Dirrell. “Dette er en flott plattform for meg, og jeg er mer motivert enn noen gang å sette på et show for fansen. Badou Jack er en tøff motstander, men jeg kommer til å gjøre det en veldig dårlig natt for ham.”

 

“Dette er en stor mulighet for meg, og jeg har ikke tenkt å la det skli gjennom fingrene mine,” sa Jack. “Jeg vet Anthony Dirrell er en meget dyktig fighter, men han er i ferd med å føle en annen type makt når jeg treffer ham. Jeg ser frem til å bli super mellomvekt mester på April 24th.””

“Jeg er så begeistret for å være i stand til å konkurrere i en så stor kamp på en slik enorm scene,” Said Truax. “Jacobs er en god fighter og jeg respekterer ham, men han har aldri vært i ringen med en som meg. Jeg vil gjøre ham betale hvis han undervurderer meg.”

 

“Vi er glade for å være å bringe Premier Boxing Champions tilbake til Spike TV og til UIC Pavilion i Chicago for første gang,” sa Leon Margules, President of Warriors Boxing, kopromotoren av hendelsen med Mayweather Kampanjer. “Chicago har en stor kamp historie og med to mesterskap kamper, April 24 vil være en annen stor kapittel i denne historien.”

Dirrell har sett mer motgang enn de fleste gjennom hele sin karriere som hans tid i boksing har blitt alvorlig truet to ganger. Først i desember 2006 da han ble diagnostisert med non-Hodgkins lymfom og ble satt på sidelinjen for 20 måneder og igjen i mai 2012 da han brakk nedre venstre ben og venstre håndledd i en motorsykkelulykke. Flint, Michigan-innfødte aldri la det holde ham ned men som han holdt vinne kamper og jobber seg opp et profesjonelt team. I 2014 han vant sitt første mesterskap, da han beseiret Sakio Bika i en omkamp av deres 2013 tegne. Nå 30 år gamle ser ut til å sette på en annen show på April 24 i Chicago.

 

Den 31-årige Jack har vært på kurs for en VM-tittel sjanse siden signering med Mayweather Kampanjer i 2013. Den hardtslående fighter ut av Las Vegas gjennom Stockholm, Sverige, tapt for første gang i 2014 men hentet seg i sin neste kamp med en 10-runde enstemmig vedtak seier over Jason Escalera i august og fortsatte å imponere i desember da han stoppet Francisco Sierra i den sjette runden. Nå, den 2008 Gambisk Olympian vil få et skudd på den store scenen når han tar på Dirrell på April 24.

 

En annen inspirerende skikkelse som skal inn i ringen, Brooklyn Jacobs avsluttet sin vei fra kreft overlevende til mester i august i fjor da han beseiret Jarrod Fletcher for hans mellomvekt tittel. I 2011, han var på jakt etter et mesterskap når kreft truet livet hans og holdt ham ut av ringen for 19 måneder. Men da han kom tilbake, han plukket opp der han slapp, har ikke tapt siden. Nå, han ser ut til å bygge på hans momentum mot en tøff motstander på April 24.

 

Født i Osseo, Minnesota, Truax is an experienced veteran who has fought professionally since 2007. Kjemper for det meste i sin hjemstat, 31-åringen vant sin første 14 kamper før hans første skavank på sin rekord, en trekke med Phil Williams i 2010. Truax ville vinne fire kamper, inkludert en seier over Williams som skaffet ham en 2012 kjempe med Jermain Taylor. Truax droppet en tøff avgjørelse å Taylor, men har gått ubeseiret i åtte kamper siden. Nå, han entrer den største kampen av sin karriere på April 24 i Chicago.
