The former champion Fortuna and the unbeaten Douglas will meet in a 50-50 fight that could put the winner in a position to fight for a world title soon. Fortuna is known for his aggressive style while Douglas looks to impress against his toughest opponent to date.
Вот то, что бойцы должны были сказать о сборах, друг с другом и более:
Как прошел сбор перед этим боем??
Хавьер Фортуна: “I’m having an excellent training camp. We’re working hard and figuring out how to break down my opponent. Hector Bermudez does a great job and I’m very comfortable training here in Boston. I’ve gotten great sparring with guys like Will Madero and Alden Whatley. I’m going to be just as strong in the final round as I was in the first.
Омар Дуглас: “Обучение продолжается уже очень хорошо. I was already working and staying sharp, because I knew a big fight was on the horizon. Training in Delaware with Douglas Petitford has been great for me and I’ve had incredible sparring. I’ve been in there getting rounds with (2016 U.S. Олимпиец) Gary Antuanne Russell and a veteran in Hank Lundy.”
Что ты думаешь о своем сопернике и как ты видишь этот бой стилистически??
JF: “Douglas is a prospect who has looked pretty good coming up. He wants to get to where I’ve been. He might be looking past me. I think that his style fits my style perfectly. I’m going to have openings and I just need to take advantage.”
OD: “Fortuna is a very decent and explosive fighter. He’s a former world champion and I expect him to stand up and get back what he thinks is his. He wants his rematch with Sosa and we are in each other’s way. He’s a frontrunner in the ring. He will try to start strong and I am prepared for whatever he brings to the table. Whether he boxes or fights me. I will make adjustments.”
Какие проблемы ставит ваш оппонент??
JF: “The only problem that he will pose is if he doesn’t show up and fight. I’m ready for anything he can bring, so I hope he’s ready to give the fans a show.”
OD: “He moves well. I can’t let myself get off-balanced trying to chase him. He’s awkward but I know that my jab will neutralize his strengths.”
What are you looking for in the future if you can get the win on November 12? What are your goals for 2017?
JF: “I want to fight the best out there. My first choice is a rematch with Jason Sosa so that I can win my belt back. I’d love to fight Vasyl Lomachenko. I don’t think he’s fought a guy quite like me yet.”
OD: “Я хочу драться за титул чемпиона мира. That’s the goal. He is a former champion who just lost his title and 2017 is my year to make a run for a title.”
How have you improved as a fighter since your loss? Do you believe a win over Douglas proves you’re still one of the best in the division?
JF: “I have learned a lot of things since I lost. My defense and my confidence in myself has improved. If I can beat a guy who is 22-0 and make it two wins over previously unbeaten fighters, then I think I’m right back in contention. He’s still considered a prospect so I think whoever wins will be a contender at the top of the division.
How does fighting in Philadelphia motivate you, having fought there in the amateurs and being from nearby Delaware?
OD: “In the amateurs I was one of the only guys from Delaware. I had a lot of obstacles. I’ve been fighting against Philly’s best fighters for years. Philadelphia is where I achieved my first goals in the sport and it will always be special to me to fight in Philly.”
Почему ты веришь, что одержишь победу в ночь боя??
JF: “With the work that I’ve been putting in, I know that I will be ready on fight night. I’ve been through too much not to leave the ring victorious.”
OD: “I’ve been waiting for this moment for all my life and I believe I am the hungrier fighter. He doesn’t want it as badly as I do. I’ve been waiting in the shadows for a long time. I have all the skills necessary to get the job done.”

Undefeated Rising Star Takes on Once Beaten Super Welterweight Contender Jorge Cota Saturday, Ноябрь 12 in Premier Boxing Champions on Spike from Temple University’s Liacouras Center
Филадельфия (Октября 19, 2016) – In the last year, undefeated 154-pound contender “Быстро” Джарретт Херд has rocketed to the top of the stacked super welterweight division, putting himself squarely in the hunt for a world title. Суббота, Ноябрь 12, Hurd continues his championship march as he takes on once-beaten Хорхе Кота в Премьер Бокс чемпионов на Spike action from Temple University’s Liacouras Center.
Телевизионный охват начинается 9 p.m. И/8 p.m. CT and is headlined by Philadelphia’s own undefeated world champion Дэнни “Быстро” Гарсия, who takes on Colombia’s Сэмюэл Варгас в 10-раундовом бою. Garcia is teaming up with Philabundance, the region’s largest hunger relief organization, to arrange a regional food drive and raise money throughout the promotion. For more information on how to get involved, visit the event’s webpage ВОТ.
Hurd enters this fight coming off of two impressive victories over previously unbeaten fighters. В ноябре 2015 he dominated Frank Galarza and stalked him around the ring before ending his night in the sixth round. Hurd followed that up in June of this year, when he stopped Carlos Molina in the final round on CBS as the co-main event of the Keith Thurman vs. Shawn Porter showdown. Hurd’s blinding right uppercut in the first round sent Molina to the canvas and the основной момент earned him a spot on SportsCenter’s Top 10 Plays.
Get to know more about the rising star as he talks about his introduction to the sport and some of his personal favorites:
(On his team): I have the best team in the world. Ernesto Rodriguez is my head trainer and we do our work in Temple Hills, Мэриленд. Ernesto is great because he trains me for the style that fits my skills best.
There is no ego in my team. We’re all working toward the same goal and everyone plays their role perfectly. With each fight we’re getting closer to reaching the ultimate goal – becoming a world champion.
(On his start in boxing): My father first put me in the ring to learn how to defend myself. I was 15-years-old and didn’t really know how to fight. I took to it quickly though and it was obviously one of the best things that ever happened to me.
(On his nickname): I got my nickname from the gym. I looked calm and collective in the gym and people noticed. They said I looked swift in there. Now it’s “Быстро” и “Быстро” on the same card and it’s going to be electric.
(On his boxing idols): I tried to emulate a lot of defensive fighters. Рой Джонс-младший. and Floyd Mayweather are my favorite fighters of all time. I liked James Toney because of his shoulder roll and the Philly shell style.
(Favorite sport/team): I watch football. I only the watch the Washington Redkins though. I’ve always been a huge fan.
(Favorite television show): Power on Starz
(Favorite movie): Deadpool
(Favorite junk food): Pizza
(Favorite health food): Kale
(Celebrity crush): Keri Hilson and Nia Long
(Perfect Vacation): Definitely a cruise to Puerto Rico. I’ve never been there but I want to experience it.
(On his homemade “Полный доступ” videos): I just love to be out there and giving fans a chance to feel connected to me. My childhood friend, Christopher Walton, picked up a camera and just started recording me in the ring and outside of the ring one day. He started getting some better equipment so we decided to do these videos to help promote me. The fans are important to me and I want them to feel like they’re a part of my journey.

Дэнни Гарсия
“Being able to partner with Philabundance is a tremendous thing. В конце концов,, that’s what it’s all about. When you’re fortunate, your job is to give back and change someone else’s life. I’m looking forward to a great night and a great turnout.
“Everyone has gone through hard times. Everyone has gone through times where they need extra help. We’re going to make a big difference that night and it’ll be for a lot of people that really need it.
“I want to thank the City of Philadelphia. I’m just excited to fight at home. This card is going to allow a lot of great local fighters to be on a big stage.
“I can’t look past Samuel Vargas and I know his trainer has a couple tricks up his sleeve. I know they’re going to come to fight, but I will never underestimate anyone. I’ve learned my lessons to become the champion I am today.
“I know Vargas knows how to win. He’s won a lot in his career. I’m going to go out there and just fight. Если он пройдет расстояние, then it does. I can’t underestimate him. I’m going to put on a great show and dominate.
“People are acting like Keith Thurman has a cape like Superman and can fly. I want the other champions to think I’m vulnerable. Those are my easiest fights. I have to get past this fight to get to the next one.
“I feel like I owe this to my fans to fight in Philadelphia. The last time I fought at this venue was on a Bernard Hopkins undercard and I got a big knockout. I plan on doing the same Ноябрь 12.
“I have a good team around me. There should be no distractions leading up to this fight. All the people who deserve to get tickets will be there and there won’t be anything distracting me. Я 100 percent focused on this matchup.
“I’m at the point in my career where I’m working smarter and harder. Такой Как Ноябрь 12 we want to give the city of Philadelphia a night to remember. I can’t overlook this fight, but I guarantee that I’m going to unify titles at 147 pounds soon.”
SAMUEL VARGAS
“I’m very blessed to be here today. This fight could change my whole life. The lives of my family. Danny is a great fighter and I have to give it my all.
“I have to take advantage of this. I have the best trainer in the world with me and we’re going to take care of business Ноябрь 12.
“Me and my trainer work on a lot of different styles. We like to switch it up and keep the opponents guessing. Sometimes we pressure and sometimes we stay outside. I’m learning every day and making adjustments.
“I’m an underdog and I have been my whole life. There are very few options for a Latin immigrant all the way up in Canada. I beat the odds to make it up there and have a life and a family.
“I’m a guy with just over 10 amateur fights and I’ve made it this far. Danny Garcia is my chance. I have to make the best of it and give it my all. This is everything for me.”
Джарретт Херд
“I’ve been to Philadelphia a couple times and the city has welcomed me. I just want to put on another show. This will get me one step closer to my dream of fighting for a title.
“We’ve looked at some of my opponent’s fights and he’s a veteran. He’s got a lot of power and a good knockout rate to go with it. He’s awkward and tall. If you don’t come in on top of your game, he can make you look bad. We’re looking to do what we always do.
“Я многому научился из своего последнего боя. It opened a lot of doors for me, like fighting on the Danny Garcia undercard. I feel like I’m what the division is missing. I’m a tall, lanky fighter with a lot of power and good hand speed.
“Мое время здесь. I feel like this is my opportunity to get closer to fighting for a world title. I can’t wait to become a world champion.
“I want to face all of the 154-pounders. We’re not ducking anyone. There are so many talented fighters in the division, but I believe that me and my team train so hard and prepare so well that we’re ready to face any of them. The time will come and we’re just waiting.
“This is a tremendous opportunity to be on the Danny Garcia undercard because we’re all trying to get to where he’s at. Make sure you’re watching my fights because I promise I’m going to do something memorable.”
ОМАР Дуглас
“I just wanted to say this is the opportunity of a lifetime to fight in Philadelphia where my career started. I won Pennsylvania Golden Gloves several times.
“To be in with a former world champion is a terrific thing. I’m going to take full advantage of this opportunity. I’ve been waiting for this a long time and this is my time.
“Fortuna is a very confident fighter. He likes to give it all the first few rounds. I’m going to come in and use my jab and invest in the body. I think we can have an early night.
“I believe I have the best jab in the business. I have to keep him off me with the jab and head movement. I’ve been fighting for a long time and there’s nothing I haven’t seen.
“I think I’ve improved a lot. Fighting guys with one loss and world ranked guys over my last couple fights has helped me. My confidence is definitely rising every day.
“You can look forward to a crowd pleasing performance and knockout.”
ANGEL GARCIA, Отец Дэнни & Тренер
“Danny has been the underdog before. Lucas Matthysse or Amir Khan, you name it. We don’t underestimate Vargas. We don’t take him lightly. We are going to come ready to rumble.
“Vargas is the underdog today, but Danny has been the underdog his entire life.Ноябрь 12 my son will still be undefeated.
“I came to Philadelphia at six years old. I had no food. Only you know you’re pain. I ate a lot of food from a can growing up, so if you guys donate anything or buy a ticket that donates money, you’ll be doing something great. We pray every day for the hungry kids, not just in America but the whole world.”
BILLY BRISCOE, Варгас’ Тренер
“This is a great opportunity for me and Samuel. In my opinion he’s an underrated fighter. He’s been under the radar for a while. We’ve been working together in Canada and starting a farm system.
“We’re fighting in my opinion the best welterweight in the world. This is no easy task and we’re not fooling ourselves. We won’t leave any stone unturned.
“We’ll find a way and we’ll make a way. That’s what we’re going to do and I look forward to this.”
MARSHALL KAUFFMAN, Акции короля
“It’s very exciting to be promoting this young man, Дэнни Гарсия. I remember him as a young kid and it’s exciting to see where he’s come in the world of boxing. I’ve known a lot of these guys for a long time and I’m excited to see how they perform.
“This card is going to be stacked with local talent and I hope that everyone comes out and supports these fighters and this great cause.

Garcia insisted on staging the fight in his hometown and using the event as a vehicle to raise awareness and money for the less fortunate in the area.
“My dad and I wanted to get one more fight in before the end of the year and there was no doubt in my mind it had to be in Philadelphia,” сказал Гарсия. “My team got it done and it’s a great feeling to fight at home over the holidays. I’m excited to use this opportunity to give back to the community and put on a show on November 12. This city means everything to me. I hope everyone comes out, but shows up with cans of food too.

См. Ниже Суперкубок 50 предсказания бойцов ПБК:
Другое Берто: У меня пантеры копейки. Мужчина, что Бронкос’ оборона свирепая! Я никогда не видел, чтобы какая-либо команда преследовала парня, как Тома Брэди. Так как же мой мальчик Кэм Ньютон с ними справится?? Вы видели, как Кэм бежит?? Он собирается наехать на них.
Против патриотов, этой обороне было позволено быть свирепой, но Кэм этого не допустит. Что касается [Бронкос бежит назад] Ронни Хиллман, он мой чувак; ему просто нужно немного поработать с ними руками.
Доминик Breazeale: Я выиграл Пантеры, 35-21. Кэм Ньютон слишком развлекается, и в этот момент, Я бы сказал, что этого парня не остановить.
Омар Дуглас: Я иду с пантерами. Кэм Ньютон отлично сыграл весь сезон и почти не проиграл. Он не обычный защитник. Он может бросить длинный мяч или запустить его для тачдауна.. И вдобавок ко всему, он веселится. Такого парня сложно победить!
Омар Фигероа младший: Я не хочу давать прогнозы. Я люблю Бронкос, как люблю Сан-Антонио Спёрс. Но Пантеры - это Голден Стэйт Уорриорз футбола прямо сейчас. Я вижу, что Бронкос очень трудно не отставать.
Мигель Флорес: Каролина всех крушила, и Денвер был несколько непоследователен. Но после Бронкос’ самые последние игры и их показ в защите, Мне придется придерживаться известного клише: “Нападение побеждает в играх, защита выигрывает чемпионаты.”
Пантеры показали, что они могут отлично играть в атаке., но их защита не всегда была на высоте. Так что я иду с Бронкосом в напряженном.
Дэнни Гарсия: Я иду с пантерами. Они сейчас катятся. У них молодость и энергия, и у них есть большой импульс в игре. Если они просто будут сосредоточены, а не тусуются и увязнут [в шумихе], они выиграют это.
Террелл Gausha: Пантеры, потому что мой братан, что я ходил в среднюю школу, играл за Каролину: широкий ресивер Ted Ginn Jr. Больше, Я думаю, они настолько хороши.
Тони Харрисон: Каролина Пантерс полностью. Как бывший защитник средней школы, Мне нравится то, что Кэм делает для игры. Он великолепен. Также, многие люди не знают, но мой младший кузен, Станьте Funchess (на фото выше с Харрисоном, когда он учился в Мичиганском университете.), играет широкий ресивер для Пантер. Так что я всегда хожу с семьей в любой ситуации.
Юлий Джексон: У меня Бронкос. У них лучшая система, поскольку они демонстрируют способность играть как единое целое.. Вот что даст им преимущество.
Джамал Джеймс: Мне нужно пойти с пантерами, потому что Кэм Ньютон занимается бизнесом. Больше, эта команда была неудачницей. Но каждый раз люди их считают, они выходят и отказываются проигрывать, что я уважаю и отношусь к.
Амир Хан: Я должен сказать, что у Бронкос есть ветеранское лидерство в лице Пейтона Мэннинга, и они были там раньше., чтобы у них был лучший общий опыт. Но в конце, молодость и взрывной характер Кэма Ньютона выиграют день в упорной борьбе Пантер.’ победа.
Поли Малиньяджи: Я иду с проигравшим Бронкосом. Может быть, это просто мое сердце, но я фанат Мэннинга, в основном потому, что его брат - QB для моих New York Giants, так что я храню это в семье.
Авенир Mares: Я беру пантер. У Кэма Ньютона есть доминирующий стиль на поле и за его пределами.. Это пантеры’ год, Кэм - потрясающий лидер и QB, и пора родиться новой династии.
Шон Портер: Я думаю, это будет отличный Суперкубок! Это очень равномерно подобранная игра. Обе команды сильны по обе стороны от мяча и имеют отличных квотербеков.. Пейтон Мэннинг пытается укрепить свой статус великого QB на все времена, и Кэм Ньютон пытается зарекомендовать себя как великий будущий. Мне очень сложно выбрать победителя, но лично мне бы хотелось увидеть победу Кэм Ньютон и Пантеры..
Майкл Уплотнения: Я должен пойти с пантерами. Я возьму Билли Малыша - Кэма Ньютона - на старого помощника шерифа., Пейтон Мэннинг.
Эррол Спенс младший: Пантеры выиграют, потому что Бронкос’ защита не сможет сдержать или остановить Кэма Ньютона. И пантеры’ pass defense is too good for a shell-of-himself Peyton Manning. I went to school with [Broncos defensive end] Von Miller, but I want Cam to win.
Антонио Тарвер: It’s a destiny type of year for Cam Newton and the Panthers. I don’t think anyone is gonna stop them. While my heart is with Denver and the wise old veteran Peyton Manning-us old guys gotta stick together-I have to put my money on Cam and the Panthers.
All I pray for is to go out like Peyton Manning: attempting to win it all before I retire. But I have to say the Panthers will win.
Остин Траут: Я выиграл Пантеры. They’re just playing with great team chemistry and great leadership in Cam Newton. But I’m still J-E-T-S till I D-I-E.
Sammy Vasquez Jr.: It’s simple: Panthers all day. They’ve been on fire. Cam Newton deserves it now after putting in the years with the team and all the hard work. They work together as a team, and that’s a great part of being successful.
Deontay Уайлдер: I like the Panthers because Cam Newton is just on a different level, a force to be reckoned with.
Томас Уильямс-младший.: I’m taking the Broncos simply because of the experience factor. Cam Newton’s year has been phenomenal; he is an MVP for sure. But I think Peyton Manning’s postseason and all-around experience will outweigh Cam’s magic.
This will be just another walk in the park for Manning, who has been in the tougher, more grueling games over the course of his career.
Final tally: Пантеры 17, Broncos 4.

Лос-Анджелес, ТАКОЙ КАК (Январь 23, 2016) Before a crowd of 12,052 at STAPLES Center in downtown Los Angeles, Дэнни “Быстро” Гарсия, (32-0, 18 КО) of Philadelphia won a unanimous 12-round decision over Gilroy, Calif.’s Роберт “Призрак” Воин, (33-4, 18 КО). Счета были 116-112 на всех трех судей’ scorecard.
Fighting for the vacant WBC Welterweight World Title in the first Премьер Бокс чемпионов (PBC) на FOX событие, Guerrero came out aggressively in the first four rounds using a solid jab and strong over hand left hands to control the action.
Garcia acclimated well to the pressure in the fifth round, finding his range and using potshotting right hands to halt the oncoming Guerrero. The theme would play itself out during the second half of the fight as well with Garcia dominating the action. Чувствуя, что борьба ускользает, Guerrero came on strongly in the final round with both combatants fighting to the bitter end as the crowd stood and roared with approval.
Said Garcia following the victory, “It was what I expected. I knew I would win at least eight or nine rounds. I knew there would be some head butts in there. He head butted me so much on my forehead.
“I was throwing my combinations, using my legs like my dad told me to do. I knew he was going to come to fight. He’s a rugged warrior. I’m back where I belong. I am now a two-division world champion.
“Guerrero is tough. No one has ever stopped him. Он пришел, чтобы бороться; he was in shape. I’m taking nothing away from him. I am glad it went the way it went. I just want to take some time off, let my body heal and take one day at a time.”
Father/trainer Ангел Гарсия сказал, “I thought it was a good fight. There were a lot of head butts. He is a dirty fighter. В конце концов,, Danny pulled it off, it doesn’t matter what people say.
“I knew Robert was going to be at 100. It was a world title fight. Anytime it is a world title fight, no one is going to slouch. When you come to fight a former champion or champion, it’s going to be a battle. These are elite fighters and there is always going to be a great fight.”
Stated a disappointed Guerrero, “I want a rematch and that’s it. Not one person out there thought Danny won, but his team. I pressured him, I nailed him, busted his body up. Я
out-jabbed him.
“Я думал, что я выиграл бой. The crowd thought I won the fight. Это был великий бой. I am happy I’m healthy. Я вернусь.
“It’s all for the fans. That’s why they bring me back. They love it and they enjoy it. They were entertained tonight. They thought I won the fight.”
Continued Robert’s father and trainer Рубен Герреро, “”I know we won it. He kept running and holding, running and holding. How are you going to win a fight when you run and hold every time?
“We wanted to win every round and I think we won every round. Я хочу матч-реванш. That wasn’t fair. I want a rematch as soon as possible.”
Punch stats showed Garcia with a wide margin of power shots landed, 33 percent to Guerrero’s 24 процентов.
In a 10-round welterweight battle, “Сержант” Сэмми Васкес of Monessen, Pennsylvania improved to (21-0, 15 КО) with a sixth round stoppage of Aron Martinez, (20-5, 4 КО) of Michoacan, Мексика.
Peppering Martinez with a piston like jab, Vasquez controlled the action using his full skillset to
score points at will against the slower Martinez. Staying the aggressor through round four and five, Vasquez continued to beat Martinez to the punch using a battering right hook.
The bout ended abruptly as Martinez was not able to continue following the sixth round due
to a left elbow injury.
Said Vasquez, “Of course I won the fight, but Martinez is a tough competitor, a tough Mexican fighter. I tried to mix it up with him a little bit, but there was no sense in me trying to do that. I could have easily outboxed him, which I started to do, but I wanted more. I was just starting to warm up.
“A victory feels good of course, but I wanted more. I wanted to go 12 раундов, if it would have lasted that long. I wanted a very decisive win. К сожалению, he got hurt, but every fight is a learning experience for me.
“It’s on to the next chapter and I’m ready for all of the guys at the top. В конце концов, I’m going to get them.”
A disappointed Martinez stated, “I hurt my elbow. I couldn’t throw my jab. I started to feel it in the third round. The doctor stopped it.
“I was doing okay. Not my best. I tried, but once I hurt my elbow, I knew it was going to be tough to continue.”
Opening the telecast was an outstanding heavyweight back and forth brawl between
2012 U.S. Олимпиец Доминик “Беда” Breazeale, (17-0, 15 КО) Глендейл, California and Эмир “Хардкор” Мансур, (22-2-1, 16 КО), Филадельфия.
From the first bell it was readily apparent that both big men would throw bombs throughout
with Mansour in particular throwing caution to the wind.
Swinging wildly Mansour dropped Breazeale early in the third stanza, badly shaking the former
college football quarterback.
Однако, Breazeale confidently kept his composure, fighting his way back in the fourth. With Mansour apparently running out of gas in the fifth round Breazeale went to work, drilling the
muscular southpaw with battering uppercuts and hooks on the inside.
Following the fifth round, Mansour bit through his tongue and cited a jaw injury (which was not broken) and could not continue as the valiant Breazeale was awarded the well-earned victory.
Said a happy Breazeale, “I didn’t know what happened. Usually when they wave off a fight, это конец. Shows I have punching power after all.
“I’ve been on the canvas before. I just had my hand in the wrong place. I knew I could get back up. Я нахожусь в отличной форме. It happens to the best of us.
“I’m a fighter at heart and I wanted to just get in there and brawl, but I new I had to stick to the game plan and box him.”
