BROOKLYN (Dezember 16, 2019) – Weltmeister im ZweikampfDanny “Swift’’ Garcíein returns to the ring to take on hard-hitting sluggerIvan “El Terrible’’ Redkach in a 12-round WBC welterweight title eliminator Saturday, Januar 25 live auf Showtime von Barclays Center, die Heimat von BROOKLYN BOXEN ™, in einem Premier Boxing Champions Event.
In der Ko-Funktion, former unified 154-pound champion„Schneller“ Jarrett Hurdwill return to battle all-actionFrancisco “Chia” Santanain einem 10-Runden-Super-Weltergewicht Contest, mehr sensational super bantamweight Stephen “Cool Boy Steph’’ Fultonwird das Gesicht ungeschlagenArnold Khegaiin a 12-round WBO Super Bantamweight title eliminator to open SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING action at 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT.
García’s blend of power and sublime boxing skills has made him one of the most popular boxers of the last decade and secured him as a box-office fixture at Barclays Center, where he holds the record for the largest crowd for a boxing event. He set the benchmark when 16,533 attended his welterweight title unification match against Keith Thurman on March 4, 2017 in a bout that aired in primetime on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING on CBS. The fight against Redkach will be Garcia’s eighth appearance at Barclays Center.
“Barclays Center fan-favorite Danny García is back in Brooklyn as he continues his quest for the top spot in the welterweight division,Sagte Tom Brown, Präsident der TGB Promotions. “Danny has been in the biggest fights at Barclays Center and on January 25 there are sure to be fireworks when hard-hitting Ivan Redkach looks for a career-defining win. Redkach has upset the odds before and there’s no doubt he’ll leave it all in the ring with this opportunity to move closer to a world title fight. Combined with a former unified champion known for action fights in Jarrett Hurd, plus a rising star in Stephen Fulton, this card is loaded with intrigue from top to bottom.”
“Danny García and Jarrett Hurd are two of the biggest stars in the sport because they have consistently taken on the toughest challenges and they are always in all-action, exciting fights,", Sagte Stephen Espinoza, Präsident Sport & Event-Programmierung, Showtime Networks Inc. “On January 25, both men are fighting to maintain their place at the top of two of boxing’s deepest divisions in important, must-win fights. Add in two undefeated, promising contenders in the opener and we have the recipe for an explosive night of fights on SHOWTIME.”
“We’re thrilled to host our first boxing event of 2020 by welcoming Danny García back for his eighth fight at Barclays Center and have Jarrett Hurd return to the arena where he’s had some memorable victories,” said Keith Sheldon, EVP of Programming and Development for BSE Global. “Danny specifically has built an enthusiastic fan base in the borough, becoming one of the most popular fighters in our arena, and we can’t wait to see his supporters out in full force as he steps back into our ring against Ivan Redkach.”
Tickets für die Veranstaltung, which is promoted by TGB Promotions and DSG Promotions, jetzt sind im Angebot und kann erworben werdenticketmaster.com undbarclayscenter.com. Tickets können auch bei der American Express Box Office bei Barclays Center erworben werden. Gruppenrabatte sind telefonisch unter 844-BKLYN-GP verfügbar. The Fulton vs. Khegai bout is promoted in association with Salita Promotions.
García (35-2, 21 KOs) is the latest in a long line of great boxers from Philadelphia who have made their mark on the sport. His run through the super lightweight division and two-year reign as a unified champion is one of the most impressive in modern history as he defeated a string of champions, including Nate Campbell, Kendall Holt, Erik Morales, Amir Khan, Zab Judah und Lucas Matthysse.
After dominating the super lightweight division, the 31-year-old García moved up to welterweight where he won the vacant WBC title with a unanimous decision over Robert Guerrero in 2016. He lost a split decision to Thurman in a unification match in 2017 and dropped a narrow unanimous decision to Shawn Porter for the WBC title in 2018. García and many pundits thought he won both those matches. In seinem letzten Kampf, García scored a spectacular knockout victory over Adrian Granados on April 20 to get back into position to regain the welterweight crown.
“I’m very excited to be headlining another SHOWTIME card and to go back to Barclays Center, mein Zuhause fern von Zuhause,sagte García. “I can’t wait to step in the ring in Brooklyn and give fans the Danny García show. I watched a few of Redkach’s recent fights and he had a great knockout win over two-time champion Devon Alexander. So, I know he’s a tough fighter and competitor who I expect to bring the best out of me, and he’s someone who deserves this opportunity. But January 25 is tax season, so I’m going to have to tax him and pay him with a reality check.”
REDK (23-4-1, 18 KOs) has his sights set on winning a welterweight title and will face the toughest challenge of his career when he steps in against Garcia. The 33-year-old Redkach, who was born in Shostka, Ukraine and now lives in Los Angeles, is accustomed to stern tests. He started boxing as an amateur in Ukraine where he had over 300 Kämpfe. When he turned professional he traveled to Mexico to train and develop the “Mexican Style’’ – a style that emphasis standing in the pocket and throwing hard shots to the body.
Things started out slowly for Redkach, but soon he began to hold his own in Mexico and prevailed, earning the nickname “El Terrible’’ from his training partners. Redkach won 14 seiner ersten 18 professional fights by stoppage and has won three in a row, including most recently knocking out former world champion Devon Alexander in June.
“I’m very motivated to take a massive step in my career and get closer to becoming world champion against a strong and accomplished fighter like Danny García,", Sagte Redkach. “I have been to a lot of Danny’s fights and now I get the chance to test myself against him. I am training very hard so that I am the best that I have ever been on January 25. I’m going to shock the boxing world just like I did against Devon Alexander. I’ve never been this hungry before and I’m confident I will win this fight.”
The former WBA and IBF champion at 154-pounds, Hurd (23-1, 16 KOs) returns to action for the first time since losing his belts via decision against Julian Williams in one of 2019’s best fights. The 29-year-old from Accokeek, Maryland captured his first title by stopping current WBC titlist Tony Harrison in 2017 and then added the WBA belt by defeating Erislandy Lara in 2018’s consensus Fight of the Year. Hurd earned his title opportunity by going on a run of knocking off unbeaten fighters including Frank Galarza and Oscar Molina, and also owns a successful title defense against Austin Trout at Barclays Center in 2017.
“Just because I fell back, doesn’t mean I fell off,” said Hurd. “I’m back and excited to fight at Barclays Center for the third time. I’m bringing the storm back on January and I’m going to make a statement everyone is going to see. You’re not going to want to miss this fight and the best Jarrett Hurd anyone’s seen.”
Santana (25-7-1, 12 KOs) has taken on the toughest challenges at 154 und 147 pounds and has made his name with an all-action action style throughout a long career as a contender. The 33-year-old will look to bounce back from a close decision loss to Abel Ramos in March, in a fight where Santana dropped Ramos in the second round. Prior to the setback against Ramos, the Santa Barbara, California native was coming off of a victory over Olympic gold medalist Felix Diaz in April 2018. Santana has faced former champions Jermell Charlo and Sadam Ali while also owning a six-round draw against Julian Williams in 2011.
“This is a great opportunity for me against a fighter like Jarrett Hurd,” said Santana. “When you get an opportunity like this, it’s hard to turn it down. My job is to rise to the occasion and have the best moment of my career on fight night. This is my Super Bowl. When I last fought at 154-pounds, I was basically self-trained. Now I have my coach Joseph Janik training me and I really think he’s the missing piece of the puzzle for me. I’m going to go in there and leave it all in the ring January 25.”
The 25-year-old Fulton (17-0, 8 KOs) has made a rapid rise through the super bantamweight ranks with superb boxing skills, befitting a slick fighter from Philadelphia. Lately Fulton has shown flashes of power that have caught his opponents off guard. In his last fight he stopped Isaac Avelar with a body shot to end their fight in the fifth round on August 24.
Fighting out of Odessa, Ukraine and training for this fight in Los Angeles, Khegai (16-0-1, 10 KOs) will make his third start in the U.S. im Januar 25, after a successful U.S. debut in in May 2018 when he defeated Adam Lopez on the prospect developmental seriesShoBox: Die neue Generation. The 27-year-old has already been victorious twice in 2019, stopping Haidari Mchanjo in March and most recently winning a unanimous decision over Vladimir Tikhonov in August onShoBox.

Tony Penecales Bericht über die Box Fan Expo Ringside
Von: Tony Penecale
Schnelles Video-Intro hier:
https://www.facebook.com/TornadoTP/videos/10156003723726436/
Beim Titelkampf im Mittelgewicht am vergangenen Wochenende zwischen Canelo Alvarez und Daniel Jacobs fand auch die jährliche Box Fan Expo statt, im Las Vegas Convention Center statt. Die erstaunlichen Erinnerungsstücke und die Live-Amateur-Box-Action ergänzten eine Reihe von früheren und gegenwärtigen Weltkämpfern, die für schnelle Meet & Greets zur Verfügung standen.
Als lebenslanger Boxfan, Es war eine Schande, dass ich nur etwas mehr als zwei Stunden für die Veranstaltung hatte, bevor ich zum Start der Undercard-Kämpfe zurück in die T-Mobile Arena ging. Die Zeit, die ich verbringen konnte, war sehr angenehm. Die Preise waren angemessen, um diese fistischen Legenden zu treffen und ein paar Momente Zeit zum Reden und Fotografieren zu haben. Der Durchschnitt $20 -$25 Der Preis für einen Fototermin war deutlich niedriger als der Preis, der im Casino bei einem einzigen Roulette-Spin verloren gegangen wäre.
James Toney war dort in einem Anzug, ein Beweis dafür, dass er Plaid sogar stilvoll aussehen lassen kann. Für einen Mann, der für seine mürrische Natur bekannt ist, Er war sehr zuvorkommend und erwähnte, dass er im Juni für eine Live-Show in Philadelphia sein wird 7 und hofft mich dort zu sehen.
Am nächsten Stand stand der Hall-of-Fame-Sender Al Berstein, Wen ich 2011 interviewen durfte. Als ich von meiner Bewunderung für seine noble Arbeit und seiner Fanatiker seit seinen Tagen mit Barry Tompkins bei ESPNs Thursday Night Fights erfuhr, Er war demütig und dankbar.
Die Linie, um Roy Jones Jr. zu treffen. war lang, aber das Warten hat sich gelohnt. Während die Zeit, um mit Roy zu sprechen, kurz war, Ich konnte erwähnen, was für eine Ehre es war, einen der größten Künstler meiner Generation zu treffen und wie ich nur ein paar Meter von ihm entfernt saß, als er am Creed II-Set war.
Während die Schlange, um den legendären Sugar Ray Leonard zu treffen, außergewöhnlich lang war, man konnte sehen, dass er sich wirklich amüsierte, Dieses Millionen-Dollar-Lächeln aufblitzen lassen und sein berühmtes Foto mit den Fäusten mit Fans machen. Unglücklicherweise, mit der Zeit knapp, Ich hatte keine Gelegenheit, einen meiner Lieblingskämpfer zu treffen, als ich aufwuchs. Ich hätte ihm gerne ein Foto gezeigt, als ich vier Jahre alt war, Ich schwang mich auf dem Boxsack von Sugar Ray Leonard weg, den ich bekommen hatte.
Ein paar Meter entfernt war einer der berühmtesten Rivalen von Sugar Ray, der große Thomas "Hitman" Hearns. Während der Hitman etwas langsamer geworden ist, als er gealtert ist, er erweist sich immer noch als imposante Figur, aber jetzt ersetzt er diesen furchterregenden Blick durch ein warmes Lächeln.
Ebenfalls zu Thomas Hearns kam der aktuelle IBF-Champion im Superfedergewicht, Tevin Farmer, ein Mit-Philadelphianer, wem ich die Gelegenheit hatte zu sehen, wie er von einem wächst 7-4-1 Gesellenboxer zu einem 29-4-1 Weltmeister.
Mein Besuch wäre nicht vollständig, ohne anzuhalten, um "The Pazmanian Devil" Vinny Paz zu sehen, Immer einer meiner Lieblings-Actionkämpfer und charismatischen Persönlichkeiten. Anstelle eines Händedrucks, Er begrüßte mich mit einer großen Umarmung und drückte seine Enttäuschung darüber aus, dass mein Vater nicht zu mir auf die Messe kam.
In dem kurzen Zeitrahmen, Es war unmöglich, alle großen Kämpfer dort zu treffen, einschließlich Michael Spinks, Riddick Bowe, Errol Spence, Anthony Dirrell, und Earnie Shavers. Es ist Cinco de Mayo Wochenende, Die Zeilen für einige der mexikanischen Legenden wickelten sich um den Boden des Kongresszentrums. Mikey Garcia, Marco Antonio Barerra, Erik Morales, und Juan Manuel Marquez erwiesen sich alle als außerordentlich beliebt. Aber nichts im Vergleich zu dem Dröhnen der pro-mexikanischen Menge, als der große Julio Cesar Chavez vorgestellt wurde.
Die Teilnahme an dieser Veranstaltung war ein wahr gewordener Traum und ich konnte mir nur wünschen, ich hätte mehr Zeit für die Veranstaltung. Alles war so professionell gemacht und die Anwesenden waren nicht zuvorkommend.
Ein großes Lob an Box Fan Expo für solch ein außergewöhnliches Ereignis.
Hören Sie sich unsere Radiosendung von Anfang dieser Woche an für mehr Einblick von Tony “Der Tornado” Penecale über dieses Ereignis.
