I’m always excited about coming home and being in front of my people where I’m the most comfortable,” Saïd Wilder. “I’ve been traveling a lot, going over to Sheffield, England to train before I was supposed to fight Alexander Povetkin in Moscow. But because of his decision to use a banned substance, the fight didn’t happen. I’m disappointed about that, but it’s not going to stop me from being an active heavyweight world champion. It has also given me the opportunity to again defend my title before my hometown fans. It’s always good to come home.
This is the longest stretch that I’ve been out of the ring and I’m anxious to get back in and continue my quest to become the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world,” suite Wilder. “This is another fight in that process. I respect Chris Arreola for getting into the ring with me, but we all know who the real champion is and I’m going to prove it. I’ve been training long and hard for a fight and now I’m going to take it out on Arreola on July 16.
I’m thankful to Deontay for this opportunity, he has provena great deal by winning the heavyweight title and by defending it three times,” Saïd Arreola. “I’m very excited to step into the ring with him, put on a great show, be victorious and make history by becoming the first Mexican heavyweight world champion.
We are thrilled that Deontay will be back in the ring quickly, in primetime on FOX, and at home in Alabama. Chris Arreola knows that this is his last opportunity for heavyweight glory and will likely come out throwing bombs from the opening bell. I expect an explosive, fan friendly fight for as long as it lasts,” a déclaré Lou DiBella, Président de DiBella Entertainment. “In the wake of Povetkin’s positive PED test and the cancellation of that fight, we are happy that Deontay’s next heavyweight title defense will be contested on 16 juillet and on such a great platform.
Chris knows what this fight means, and having been in the position to be the first Mexican heavyweight world champion before, he’s not going to let that chance slip by him again, ” dit Tom Brown du TGB Promotions.
We are excited to work with DiBella Entertainment and TGB Promotions to bring the third heavyweight boxing championship in a little over a year to the state of Alabama,” a déclaré Gene Hallman, président et chef de la direction de Bruno équipe événement. “We expect tickets for this fight to sell quickly and we encourage Alabama boxing fans to show their support for Deontay.
FOX and FOX Deportes are thrilled to be broadcasting the much anticipated heavyweight championship of the world between Deontay Wilder vs. Chris Arreola as part of our partnership with Premier Boxing Champions,” a déclaré David Nathanson, Fox Sports Chef des opérations commerciales. “It’s been just over 20 years since FOX presented its last heavyweight headliner, Mike Tyson vs. Buster Mathis. We’re sure this title fight will deliver another amazing PBC show on our networks.
The heavyweight champion from Tuscaloosa is itching to get back in the ring after defending his title with stoppages of Eric Molina, Johann Duahaupas and most recently a one-punch knockout of Artur Szpilka in January. Avant de passer pro en Novembre 2008, Wilder a remporté la médaille de bronze au poids lourd pour les Etats-Unis. au 2008 Jeux Olympiques. Il est le dernier boxeur mâle américain à remporter une médaille aux Jeux olympiques. The 30-year-old won the belt with a dominant decision over Bermane Stiverne in January 2015. The six-month layoff will be the longest of Wilder’s career. This fight will mark the eighth time Wilder fights in his home state of Alabama as a professional.

With victories over Eric Molina, Seth Mitchell, Joey Abell and Jameel McCline plus championship losses to Vitali Klitschko and Bermane Stiverne, he will be one of the most battle-tested opponents of Wilder’s career.

DEONTAY WILDER STATEMENT ON HIS TITLE DEFENSE FIGHT AGAINST ALEXANDER POVETKIN

MAI 15, 2016 – In the wake of the news on Friday that Alexander Povetkin tested positive for the banned substance meldonium, WBC Heavyweight Champion Deontay Wilder and his representatives have been made aware of the WBC’s decision on Sunday that the fight will not occur in Moscow on May 21.
I’m very disappointed that due to Povetkin’s failed drug test the fight is not going to happen on May 21 à Moscou,” said Deontay Wilder. “I had worked very hard to prepare myself for this important title defense, spending the last two weeks training in England to get accustomed to fighting in Europe. I wanted to give the fans a great show, but we understand the WBC’s position that the fight occur on an even playing field.
Povetkin, the WBC No. 1 heavyweight championship contender, tested positive for the substance in a urine test conducted by the Las Vegas-based Voluntary Anti-Doping Association (VA DONNER) sur Avril 27.
Based upon Povetkin’s positive test for meldonium, and with the health and safety of Deontay Wilder the paramount consideration, this fight could not take place next Saturday,” said DiBella. “As a result of Povetkin’s use of a banned substance and breach of contract, Deontay Wilder was deprived of an opportunity to defend his title as he was prepared toon an even playing field. He and his team have suffered substantial damages as a result. Any talk of rescheduling by Mr. Ryabinskiy at this point is unfounded and premature. Team Wilder will await further communications from the WBC and will weigh all our options given what has transpired.
The 30-year-old Wilder (36-0, 35 KOs) and his team were supposed to fly to Moscow on Sunday for a week of preparation and promotion leading up to the fight. Maintenant, Wilder will return home to Tuscaloosa, Alabama and await further information from the WBC.
This is a huge disappointment and a setback to my goals in boxing. I want to be an active heavyweight champion and it is still my goal to collect all the belts and become the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world,” Wilder dit.

WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION DEONTAY WILDER MEDIA WORKOUT QUOTES FROM NORTHPORT, ALABAMA

When we step in that ring, nothing is acceptable but a knockout. And I’m looking to knock him out.” – Deontay Wilder
Wilder (36-0, 35 KOs) Defends Against Mandatory Challenger
Alexander Povetkin (30-1, 22 KOs) One Month From Today
sur Mai 21 à Moscou, Russie
NORTHPORT, ALA. (Avril 21, 2016) -Invaincu champion du monde WBC des poids lourds Deontay Wilder hosted a media workout Mardi at the Skyy Gym in Northport, Ala. as he prepares to become the first reigning American heavyweight champion to travel to Russia to defend his title.
In exactly one month, sur Samedi, Mai 21, Wilder (36-0, 35 KOs), de Tuscaloosa, Ala., will put his world title on the line against mandatory challenger and native Russian,Alexander Povetkin (30-1, 22 KOs), à Moscou.
Here’s what Wilder said at his Media Workout day mardi:
Deontay Wilder
(On his expectations going to Russia…)
My expectation is, bien sûr, pour gagner. To come back with that victory for America. This is a big fight, not just for myself, for America. It’s like Russia vs. Amérique. I’ve been getting nothing but positive feedback from fans all over. Even if they weren’t a fan of Deontay Wilder they are now for this very fight. Hopefully I can win them over to stay a fan of Deontay Wilder after this fight. I think it’s a great fight. I think it’s a great thing that we’re going over to Russia defending my title in somebody else’s backyard.
“Comme je l'ai dit avant, it’s easier for me to fight here in American but that’s not what it’s all about to me. When I have a title that says the heavyweight champion of the world, I want to travel all over the world to defend my title. I’m living my dream, I’m getting an opportunity to do that with this fight. I’m looking forward to Russia and I want to tell Russia,’Here I come.’ “
(What it means to be the first heavyweight champion to fight in Russia…)
It means a lot. It makes me even closer to my faith. God doesn’t make mistakes in lives. He doesn’t make a mistake in my life, your life or anybody else. Things happen for a reason and they happen at the right time in your life. Things may not come when you want it, but when they come it’s right on time. The things that have been accumulating throughout my career, it’s been amazing. How I’ve been able to make history, beat other records, and continue to make history. C'est incroyable. I just want to know what else he has in store for my life. If it’s continuously history being made, what’s next? Je suis surexcité.
I can’t wait to see how my life unfolds at the end of my career. What happens at the end of Deontay Wilder when it’s time for him to say I’ve done all I’ve done in this sport and I don’t want to do it anymore. I want to see how much ground I can cover for those that have come before me.
(How you predict the fight going…)
I predict the fight as being a punishment in the first round and then knocking him out. All heavyweights want to knock somebody out so we have to say we’re going to knock them out. This is the cream of the crop division. The heavyweights. The hard-hitters. The heavy hitters, comme ils disent. When we step in that ring, nothing is acceptable but a knockout. And I’m looking to knock him out.
(On if he’s reached his peak…)
Not at all and that’s the scary part about it. I haven’t even reached my peak yet and I’m still learning on the way up. I want to always learn. Each and every fight brings experience to me. It brings something that I’ve taken away from that fight and that I’ve added to the next fight. Looking forward to being very crisp and very good in this fight and showing people a little bit more of what Deontay Wilder is capable of. Especially those who haven’t seen anything thus far yet, stay tuned to this fight. This is one you don’t want to miss.
(On unifying the titles in the future…)
Most definitely. I really feel when I say that I will be the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world, I don’t just say it to say it, but I also feel it inside me, deep inside me that I will be the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world and add my name to the few undisputed champions that have come before me. My name will be placed in history on that. Why wouldn’t it? All the things I’ve done up to now, that will be the icing on my cake to be the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world. I won’t stop, no matter how many hours I have to put in. No matter how many fights that I have to take. No matter how many countries I have to visit to defend my title. I will be the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world.
(On concerns about going to Russia…)
I don’t have any concerns. I don’t let my brain sit back and think about if I don’t knock him out or are they going to rob me, or anything like that. I just don’t want my mind to be on that when I’m in a fight. I want to have a clear mind. I want to go in there and do what Deontay is capable of doing. Comme je le disais, all things are in God’s hands and if it’s in his will for me to win, it’s going to happen. If not then, I don’t stop there. My legacy is not going to stop there. But I’m very confident in what I’m about to do and what I’m going to do, and we all know that if we knock him out then we don’t have to worry about that. So of course that’s going to be my priority on my listto knock him out.

(Former world champ Andre Berto with Denver Broncos Running Back Ronnie Hillman

See below for Super Bowl 50 predictions from PBC fighters:
Autres Berto: I’ve got the Panthers by a dime. Homme, that Broncosdefense is ferocious! I’ve never seen any team get after a guy like they got after Tom Brady. So how is my boy Cam Newton gonna handle them? Have you seen Cam run? He’s gonna run right over them.
Against the Patriots, that defense was allowed to be ferocious, but Cam won’t allow that. As for [Broncos running back] Ronnie Hillman, he’s my dude; he’s just gotta work on them hands a little bit.
Dominic Breazeale: I’ve got the Panthers winning, 35-21. Cam Newton is just having way too much fun, and at this point, I would have to say the guy is unstoppable.
Omar Douglas: I’m going with Panthers. Cam Newton has played great all season and almost went undefeated. He is not your average quarterback. He can throw the long ball or run it in for a touchdown. And on top of it all, he’s having fun. It’s hard to beat a guy like that!
Omar Figueroa Jr.: I don’t want to give a prediction. I love the Broncos like I love the San Antonio Spurs. But the Panthers are the Golden State Warriors of football right now. I see the Broncos having a really hard time keeping up.
Miguel Flores: Carolina has been smashing everyone, and Denver has been somewhat inconsistent. But after the Broncosmost recent games and their showing on defense, I will have to stick with the famous cliché: “Offense wins games, defense wins championships.
The Panthers have shown that they can be great offensively, but their defense hasn’t always been on point. So I’m going with the Broncos in a tight one.
Danny Garcia: I’m going with the Panthers. They’re rolling right now. They’ve got youth and energy, and they’ve got a lot of momentum going into the game. If they just stay focused and don’t party and get caught up [in the hype], they’ll win it.
Terrell Gausha: Panthers, because my bro that I went to high school with plays for Carolina: wide receiver Ted Ginn Jr. Plus, I think they are just that good.
Tony Harrison: Carolina Panthers all the way. As a former high school quarterback, I love what Cam is doing for the game. He’s amazing. Aussi, many people don’t know but my younger cousin, Devin Funchess (pictured above with Harrison while at the University of Michigan), plays wide receiver for the Panthers. So I’m always going with family in any situation.
Julius Jackson: I’ve got the Broncos. They have a better system as far as demonstrating an ability to play as a cohesive unit. That’s what will give them the edge.
Jamal James: I’m gonna have to go with the Panthers, because Cam Newton has been handling business. Plus, that team has kinda been an underdog. But every time people count them out, they come out and refuse to lose, which is something I respect and relate to.
Amir Khan: I would have to say that the Broncos have the veteran leadership in Peyton Manning and they’ve been there before, so they have the better overall experience. Mais au final, the youth and explosiveness of Cam Newton will win the day in what will be a hard-fought Panthers’ victoire.
Paulie Malignaggi: I’m going with the underdog Broncos. Maybe it’s just going with my heart, but I’m a Manning fan, mainly because his brother is the QB for my New York Giants, so I’m keeping it in the family.
Abner Mares: I’m taking the Panthers. Cam Newton has a style on and off the field that just dominates. It’s the Panthers’ an, Cam is a tremendous leader and QB, and it’s time for a new dynasty to be born.
Shawn Porter: I think this is gonna be a great Super Bowl! It’s a very evenly matched game. Both teams are solid on both sides of the ball and have great quarterbacks. Peyton Manning is trying to solidify his status as an all-time great QB, and Cam Newton is trying to establish himself as a future great. I’m having a really hard time picking a winner, but personally I would love to see Cam Newton and the Panthers win.
Michael Seals: I’ve got to go with the Panthers. I’m gonna take Billy the Kid-Cam Newton-over the Old Deputy Sheriff, Peyton Manning.
Errol Spence Jr.: The Panthers will win because the Broncosdefense will not be able to contain or stop Cam Newton. And the Pantherspass 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.
Antonio Tarver: 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.
Austin Trout: I’ve got the Panthers winning. 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 Wilder: I like the Panthers because Cam Newton is just on a different level, a force to be reckoned with.
Thomas Williams Jr.: 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: Panthers 17, Broncos 4.

NEW YORK (Jan. 17, 2016) – Champion du monde américain des poids lourds Deontay Wilder a défendu son titre WBC pour la troisième fois avec un KO dévastateur au neuvième tour du challenger polonais Arthur Pin Samedi nuit, en direct sur SHOWTIME devant 12,668 fans au Barclays Center de Brooklyn, N. Y.. FAITS SAILLANTS VIDEO: http://s.sho.com/1Rtg0ac
Avec le champion du monde des poids lourds WBA et WBO Tyson Fury et le challenger obligatoire de Wilder Alexander Povetkin regardant depuis le ring, Wilder (36-0, 35 KOs) impressionné encore une fois en assommant son 35e adversaire dans 36 combats.
Ce fut un combat rapproché jusqu'à ce que Szpilka se heurte à un droit brutal au menton tout en lançant un large gauche à 2:24du neuvième tour. Szpilka est tombé sur le dos et est resté inconscient sur la toile pendant quelques instants avant de répondre aux questions et de déclarer qu'il allait bien.. Goupille (20-2, 15 KOs) parlait et bougeait toutes ses extrémités, cependant, il a été emmené à l'hôpital luthérien sur une civière par mesure de précaution.
“Il va bien,” a déclaré Ronnie Shields, l'entraîneur de Szpilka. “Il est éveillé et sait exactement où il est. Il ne voulait pas aller à l'hôpital, mais il y va par précaution. Il vaut mieux prévenir que guérir.”
La puissance a fait la différence pour Wilder, un bombardier de 6 pieds 7 pouces qui a atterri 42 pour cent de ses coups puissants contre l'adversaire gaucher. Le joueur de 30 ans a brièvement célébré sa victoire avant de vérifier que Szpilka irait bien..
“Je lui ai dit qu'il était un grand concurrent,” Wilder dit. “Il est venu tout donner. Il a tout donné pour Brooklyn. Je dis toujours deux prières. Je dis une prière d'équipe et je dis une prière individuelle. Je ne veux pas blesser un homme pour qu'il ne puisse pas rentrer dans sa famille. Nous risquons nos vies à chaque fois que nous montons sur le ring. Il est définitivement dans mes prières et j'espère qu'il va bien.
“Il était définitivement un gars rusé,” suite Wilder. “Je n'ai pas affronté un gaucher en trois ans. Il était un concurrent dur, mais tu te bats pour un titre mondial. Ce n'est pas censé être facile. Je suis surpris que cela ait pris autant de temps, mais nous avions 12 tours et ils ne peuvent pas tous ne peuvent pas être jolis.”
Fureur, le franc-champion du monde unifié britannique, est monté sur le ring après le combat et a affirmé qu'il voulait combattre Wilder dans un blockbuster d'unification.
“N'importe quand, n'importe où, ne importe où. Je te combattrai dans ton arrière-cour après avoir battu (Wladimir) Klitschko encore.”
Wilder, le premier champion américain des poids lourds depuis près d'une décennie, a rejeté les singeries de Fury tout en promettant qu'il était prêt pour une épreuve de force qui est sans aucun doute l'un des plus grands combats qui peuvent être faits en boxe.
“Nous savons tous que Fury n'est qu'un faux,” Wilder dit. “C'est juste un acte. je n'ai peur de personne. Nous viendrons dans votre jardin. C'est juste un acte – tu n'es pas un vrai combattant. je ne joue pas. Ce n'est pas de la lutte. Quand tu montes sur ce ring avec moi, je te promets que je te baptiserai.
“J'aimerais le combattre ensuite, malheureusement, j'ai d'autres mandats dus. Prenez rendez-vous avec Tyson, Je vous promets.”
Dans l'ouverture du SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING, Charles Martin a remporté le championnat du monde IBF des poids lourds lorsque Viatcheslav Glazkov a subi une blessure au genou droit au troisième tour et n'a pas pu continuer. Le combat a été marqué par un TKO au troisième tour (1:50) après que Glazkov a dit à l'arbitre Earl Brown qu'il n'était pas en mesure de continuer.
Martin (23-0-1, 21 KOs), qui était l'agresseur tout au long du combat, devient le sixième champion poids lourd gaucher de l'histoire de la boxe et la deuxième titlist américaine actuelle des poids lourds.
Glazkov (21-1-1, 13 KOs) a glissé au début de la troisième et semblait mal à l'aise lorsqu'il est revenu sur ses pieds. L'Ukrainien, auparavant invaincu, a continué à se battre, mais il est retombé sur la toile en lançant un coup de poing. Les rediffusions ont confirmé que la blessure au genou droit était une glissade et n'était pas le résultat d'un tir connecté de Martin. Après le combat, Le médecin du ring, Gerard Verlotta, a confirmé au journaliste de SHOWTIME Sports, Jim Gray, que la blessure était une déchirure du LCA droit.

Voici ce que les participants avaient à dire Jeudi:
Deontay Wilder
I’m so happy to be here in the ‘Big Apple.It’s been over 115 years since there’s been a heavyweight title fight in Brooklyn and you’ve invited your ‘country friendto end that streak.
Everything has happened at the right time in my life. Even the people I’ve met in my career have come at the right time. I still think about the first time I met Lennox Lewis and he took the time out to talk to me and he showed me different techniques. Je n'oublierai jamais.
Lennox was one of those guys that set the standard. He’s a hard act to follow. But I love a challenge. Everybody has had struggles coming up. Now my children are my motivation and that’s what has made me strong physically and mentally.
Here we are in 2016, with a young champion trying to follow in the footsteps of a great champion to become undisputed heavyweight champion of the world.
People who know me know that if I say I’m going to do something, I’m doing it. I am hungry. I am determined. I’m not playing with anybody in 2016. I don’t say things just to sound good. My actions will speak for themselves.
This is a great card. Two heavyweight title fights in one night. It doesn’t get much better than that. The heavyweight division is exciting again. Having someone like me, it’s only going to get better.
I take pride in what I do and what I have. I’m very honored to have the WBC belt. I even have the belt tattooed on my body. It’s not going anywhere. But there are more belts that I want. It’s going to be a long journey and a tough path to fulfill. But I’m that man.
When people say the heavyweight champion of the world, I want one person to be recognized. I wish my opponent and all future opponents good luck, cause they’re going to need it.
We’re not looking past Artur Szpilka. Things happen due to adrenaline and excitement, but I’m very confident about what I’m going to do Samedi nuit. He wants to be the first Polish heavyweight champion of the world. You know he’s coming to make history.
“Ça va être un dur combat, but a fun fight. Everyone who sees this fight, they’re going to get their money’s worth. Ça va être un grand spectacle. J'ai hâte. Waiting is the hardest part of boxing.
ARTUR PIN
I’m so happy to fight in front of so many great Polish fans. I want to be the first Polish heavyweight champion of the world. I want to do it.
“Il n'y a pas de pression sur moi. The pressure is on Deontay because I just want to be a world champion, il est déjà.
I’m not just here to get my paycheck. Everyone who knows me, knows I come to fight. I don’t just want to win; I want to win in spectacular fashion.
I have a bunch of friends coming in from Chicago but the next 48 hours will be mostly relaxing. I have a couple small training sessions with Ronnie (Shields) mais c'est tout.
I know you have to have a great respect for your opponent and I used to have respect for him. But after what he has said about me, I have a problem. You have to prove it in the ring. He has to do it in the ring, not outside the ring. He can say whatever he wants, but we will see it in the ring.
I will fight hard and after the fight you will hear ‘The New Heavyweight Champion of the World.’ “
Charles Martin
I’m so thankful to be in this position. Everyone who put this together and got me here, I owe them everything. I want to thank my mom for making me a strong guy. We went through everything together. We’ve seen it all.
It’s starting to get real. I can feel my aggression coming out. I’m a Taurus, I’m a bull. I get mean when it’s time to fight. That’s what I want to bring into the ring Samedi nuit. Controlled aggression.
I’m a nice person but when it’s time to go, I have an angry heart.
I train for every fight like a title fight. Mentally there was nothing to gear up for. I’m strong mentally. I’ve been running up in the mountains and doing a lot of rounds.
We’re in great shape after being in one camp for eight weeks and then taking a week off before we got back to it. It was a great training camp.
I’m happy and excited. Je suis impatient de ce combat Samedi and taking what’s mine.
I’m so sick of talking about what Glazkov does well, I just want to see if he can do it well against me.
VYACHESLAV GLAZKOV
Thank you everyone who supports me and loves boxing. Ceci est une grande opportunité pour moi. Je suis 100 pour cent prêt. This will be a good fight and I hope everyone is watching.
“Je me sens bien. I’ve trained very hard. Je suis très prêt pour ce combat. Everything is in place for me to become world champion.
Charles is a big guy. He’s a lefty but he hasn’t fought good opponents. He’s a big strong guy, but it’s the heavyweight division. Everyone is strong. This will be a good fight.
All of my past fights have helped me get ready for this one. I want all of the belts. This is the first step towards my dream.
Lennox Lewis, Former Unified Heavyweight World Champion
I’m looking forward to the fights Samedi. There are four great heavyweights that I’m excited to see. I’m happy that my WBC belt is looked after so well.
The heavyweight division is wide open right now. Now it’s time for the guys who were standing by the wayside to show that they want to be the next undisputed champion.
DiBella LOU, Président de DiBella Entertainment
This is going to be a huge event at Barclays Center Samedi nuit. There are still some tickets available, but you better run and get them. We just opened up some more tickets today. We could have a record crowd for boxing at Barclays Center and that’s the power of the heavyweight division and the power of boxing when you deliver a great product to people.
There are two terrific fights in one night. They will be the first heavyweight title fights in Brooklyn in 115 ans. We knew we were going to have Deontay Wilder taking on Artur Szpilka. We didn’t initially expect it, but now we have a title fight for a vacant belt as a co-feature. It really makes it a special night.
STEPHEN ESPINOZA, Vice-président exécutif & Directeur Général, Sports Showtime®
SHOWTIME Sports was born on March 10, 1986 with its first telecast of a sporting event, which happened to feature a spectacular 11e-round knockout by “Merveilleux” Marvin Hagler. This is SHOWTIME’s 30eanniversary and we’ll be celebrating all year long.
In keeping with our heavyweight theme, we are featuring our long history with Evander Holyfield and airing some of his biggest fights. Holyfield has fought with us 18 fois, the most of any other fighter. If there is a current fighter who can break that record, it’s Deontay Wilder. He’s fought eight times and we’ve seen the progression of his skills.
I can’t think of a better way to kick off our year than with this doubleheader of heavyweight title fights. For each of these four fighters on this SHOWTIME card, Samedi night represents a lifetime of work and their dream of being heavyweight champion. I’m convinced we’re going to have two memorable fights that will add to the great history of SHOWTIME.
We have such confidence in this card we’re doing something unprecedented. Not only is it a part of our Free Preview Weekend, but we’re putting the entire telecast on the SHOWTIME Sports YouTube Channel. There’s no excuse for anyone to miss it.
BRETT YORMARK, PDG de Barclays Center
Barclays Center is in the big event business and it doesn’t get any bigger than hosting two heavyweight world championship fights Samedi nuit. Brooklyn has a great history with heavyweights but it’s been a long time. Deontay is the perfect person to bring this tradition back to Brooklyn. Il est confiant, tenacious and has a big personality. He’s made to fight in Brooklyn.
Wilder versus Artur Szpilka is the matchup Brooklyn has been waiting for. The Fort Greene section of Brooklyn has a tremendous Polish population and Artur will have a big rooting section Samedi nuit.
This will be our sixteenth event and I expect 2016 to be our biggest year ever. This is certainly an exciting way to kick off boxing at Barclays for 2016.
