The cream always rises to the top. I’m going to show that I’m the best 154-pounder in the world.
It’s been frustrating (16-month layoff). This is something I’ve been doing since I was six and not to do it has been tough.

Demetrius Andrade to return Oct. 17 with a vengeance

 

Mohegan Suna Areno, Uncasville, Konektikuto

PROVIDENCE (Oktobro 5, 2015) – All undefeated junior middleweight Demetrius “Boo Boo” Andrade (21-0, 14 KOs) has ever wanted to do since he first laced up a pair of gloves as a kid is to box and that’s why, after a 16-month stretch of inactivity, totally unrelated to injury, La 2008 Usono. Olympian is returning to the ring Oktobro 17 to headline a non-televised show at Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Konektikuto.
A myriad of reasons kept the 27-year-old Andrade out of the ring and without a purse check since June 14, 2014, when he destroyed No. 1 Deviga konkuranto Brian “La Leono” Rose (25-1-1, 7 KOs) in seven rounds, impressively winning on HBO in what turned out to be his first and only World Boxing Organization (WBO) titoldefendo. Andrade, batalanta el Providenco, originally captured the vacant WBO 154-pound title November 9, 2013, also aired on HBO, defeating previously unbeaten 2004 Usono. Olympian Vanes “Koŝmaro” Martirosyan (33-0-1, 21 KOs) by way of a 12-round decision.
OPEN MEDIA WORKOUTPUBLIC INVITED
Demetrius Andrade will hold and open media workout #?I tiu #?a?do Nokto (8 P.M. ET komenco) at Big Six Academy, 816 Douglas Ave. in Providence.
During his past 16 frustrating months, Andrade has been stripped of his WBO title, essentially banned from fighting on network television, dropped from all ratings, and unfairly branded as a fighter who talks a big game but turns down tough fights.
I’m relieved and grateful to be fighting again, especially close to home and in front of my fans,” Andrade said about his Oct. 17 fight against Argentinian opponent Dario Fabian “El Gallo” Pucheta (20-2, 11 KOs), a former South American champion, in the 10-round main event for the vacant WBO & WBA International super welterweight championships. “It’s good to finally have a date and I’m very happy to get back in the ring. It isn’t the fight I really wanted but Pucheta has a good record and he always comes to fight. Mi deziris batali Delvin Rodriguez, which would have been a good fight in Connecticut because that’s where he comes from and I live in Rhode Island, Sed, I guess, his people didn’t want him to fight me. They must be saving him for somebody else.
“Tiel, I needed to take this fight (off-TV vs. a non-ranked opponent) to get back into action, to where I want to be and belong. It’s not like I failed in the ring to lose my title belt. I was disappointed to lose it, Nature, but that’s not what identifies me. People know who the best fighters are in the world. All I ever wanted was to do was fight. I want to stay active and I believe I can fill Floyd’s Mayweather‘s shoes as boxing’s next superstar.
During his long hiatus from the ring, Andrade called out Mayweather, Saul “Canelo” Alvarez, Erislandy Lara, and other world-class fighters to no avail, remaining on the shelf waiting to landing a career defining fight that never materialized. Andrade, oni 2007 World Championships gold medal winner and four-time national amateur champion, has filed a lawsuit against Roc Nation, claiming the promotional company, owned by Jay-Z, reneged on a promise to pay him $550,000.
The only fight I ever turned down was against (Jermall)Charlo,” Andrade explained, “because I was in that situation with Jay-Z. I thought he and his company could really help me, in the ring and marketing-wise. I chose not to take that fight (Dec. 13, 2014 #Kontra?. Charlo) Sed, when things didn’t happen with Roc Nation, I signed a contract to fight Charlo (Jan. 14, 2015). Male, he signed a deal to fight Martirosyan. I never knew anything about the (Matt) Korobov Batalo (for vacant WBO middleweight title) until after it was announced. I never intended to move up to middleweight, #?E tiu tempo, to fight him or anybody else. Poste, I even offered to fight (Anthony) Mundine in his backyard (#A?stralio) for short money, just to keep my title, but that didn’t work out either. I guess that’s all part of this game.
Andrade trained three or four days a week, even without a date to fight, and he is stronger than ever, physically and mentally. He is returning to the ring with a vengeance, promising to make a major statement Oct. 17 and beyond.
I’m going to make a statement that I’m the best 154-pound fighter in the world and show why nobody wants to fight me,” Andrade concluded. “I’m going to showcase all of my skills with my October 17Th performance. I’m looking ahead, not in the past.

ERISLANDY LARA WINS UNANIMOUS DECISION AGAINST DELVIN RODRIGUEZ

 

ARTUR BETERBIEV SCORES SEVENTH ROUND

KNOCKOUT OVER ALEXANDER JOHNSON

Klako HERE For Photos From Lucas Noonan/Premier Boxing Champions

CHICAGO (Junio 13, 2015) – Superegaj Boksaj #?ampiono (PBC) Sur Spike returned to Chicago’s UIC Pavilion Vendrede night with another installment of spectacular fights. La komenca televida vico vidis Artur Beterbiev (9-0, 9 KOs) manage a seventh round knockout against Alexander Johnson (16-3, 7 KOs). The second televised bout featured Erislandy Lara (21-2-2, 12 KOs) as he secured a unanimous decision victory over Delvin Rodriguez (28-8-4, 16 KOs).

 

Below are comments made by the televised fighters following their performances #?I-nokte:

 

ERISLANDY LARA

 

Thanks to my whole team and to Delvin for being a great competitor. Thank you Al Haymon.

 

This was a great performance #?I-nokte. I was able to land my left. Delvin was really just trying to survive in there, so I knew what I was doing was working.

 

I was trying to bait him to come in, but it wasn’t working. So I had to get aggressive in there.

 

It’s never a comfortable feeling leaving it up to the judges. I’d like to win every round and get the knockout if possible, but at least I got the win #?I-nokte.

 

I’m going to sit down with my team and Al (Haymon). The future is clear. We want the best. We want Floyd Mayweather. We want Miguel Cotto. We want Gennady Golovkin at 160 Lbs.”

 

DELVIN RODRIGUEZ

 

It was very uncomfortable in there for me #?I-nokte. He was sharp and giving me lots of weird angles to work with.

 

He was always looking to land his left. He caught me once to the body though and that took three or four rounds to shake off.

 

I think PBC is great for the sport. They’re taking boxing to a whole new level. Some of the things they do are really going to catch on with the fans. Keeping the focus on the fighters is a big part of that.

 

It’s hard to say what’s next right now. There are still some great fights for me. Just because I lost to a skilled, technical fighter like Lara doesn’t mean there aren’t great fights left for me.

 

ARTUR BETERBIEV

 

This is a big plus for me and great experience for my pro career. I’m very happy to have gone past four rounds #?I-nokte.

 

Nothing was really working that well for me #?I-nokte Tamen. I like to box smart and find the right openings. Maybe the righty to lefty switch in the last week made a difference.

 

I’m very happy and proud to have been part of another PBC card and to have had a fight here in the United States. The last time I was in Chicago was back in 2007 in the same venue. So it felt great to be back.

 

I’m a boxer, but I don’t like to call people out and insult them. I can’t predict the future, but I’ll work hard to make my winning streak even better than this one. I want the biggest belt that I can get. KE’s mia celo.”

 

ALEXANDER JOHNSON

 

Short notice doesn’t matter because it’s part of the game to always be prepared. I have no excuses. He was the better man #?I-nokte.

 

He got in one rabbit punch behind the ear that affected me more than some of the other shots, but overall he was just the better fighter #?I-nokte.

 

I think PBC is great for the sport of boxing. I can’t take anything away from them and I’m just grateful for the opportunity to fight on their card #?I-nokte.

 

I’m heading back to the gym and I’ll discuss what comes next with my family.

Here is what the press conference participants had to say Wednesday:

 

ERISLANDY LARA

I want to thank the fans here in Chicago. This is a great opportunity to show my skills on national television on Spike.

I’ve been eager to get back in the ring after my first title defense and Delvin Rodriguez is a worthy opponent.

I’m going to be electrifying on fight night and the fans are going to see a spectacular performance from me.

 

DELVIN RODRIGUEZ

“I’m tre ekscitita por ĉi tiu batalo. We had a great training camp. We’ve been going for about three months, and I really think this is one of the best camps I’ve ever had.

 

Everything has fallen into place this time around. Kiel batalanto, you always feel like there may have been something missing. For this fight we had enough time to prepare.

 

I’m taking this fight as if it’s my last opportunity. That’s how I’m going to fight this fight. That’s how I’ve programmed my mind for this fight, as if my back is against the wall. This is my last chance at a world title.

 

I’m facing a great boxer. He’s a very technical fighter and he has great skills. And that helps motivate me even more. It made me work so much harder for this fight.

 

I’ve been reading a lot about what the media is saying about this fight. I promise the fans that whatever I have to do, this is going to be an exciting fight. It has to be an exciting fight for Delvin Rodriguez because this is my last chance.

 

ARTUR BETERBIEV

I’m very glad to be here in Chicago for this fight. I’m ready for anything in the ring.

 

If my opponent is going to call himself Alexander ‘The Great’ Johnson, then I’ll be ‘King Arthurand I’m here to win. Even though I make that joke I am here to win and that is the truth.

 

We couldn’t do too much research on the new opponent, but we’ve looked through a couple of videos so we know the opponent is a southpaw and we’re ready for that.

 

I don’t like to underestimate my opponents and I prepare for everybody the same. I’ll be ready to go against him.

 

My last fight against Gabriel Campillo was against a southpaw, so it’s something I’m used to and I believe I have the knowledge so that it won’t be a problem.

 

ALEXANDER JOHNSON

 

I’m not a big talker. Vendredo Ni’ll vidas, but I think he (Beterbiev) is all hype.

 

I’m willing to fight anybody any time anywhere. This is just another stepping-stone for my legacy.

 

I was not aware of him before I took the fight, but I have fought big punchers before and my chin is strong. I will have no problem with his power.

 

I come to win, no matter what day it is, what time it is, no matter what place it is; I always come to win. I’m always ready to fight. This is a boxer’s life.

 

ARTUR SZPILKA

 

I know that Manuel Quezada is a tougher fighter than the guy I fought last time in Chicago, but I’m so much better than I was then.

 

My Polish fans always help me. When I fought Mike Mollo, and I went down, I heard them screaming my name; I know that I can’t disappoint them. I will always give them my best.

 

Of course I want to knock Quezada out, and hopefully it will be seen on Spike.

 

I want to be a bigger part of Premier Boxing Champions, but the most important thing I can do is what my trainer Ronnie Shields wants me to do in order to win.
