Barrett Tá snoite amach MMA gairme terrific ach bhí an itch a bheith ina Boxer i gcónaí.
Barrett Tá taithí sa chiorcal chearnógacha mar tá sé ina tharraingt i troid a ghlac sé páirt i 2006.
“Nuair a ghlac mé an chéad troid dornálaíochta go raibh sé ach é a dhéanamh agus chun fanacht gníomhach. Bhí mo chúlra mó wrestling, ach gach uair a ghlaoigh an clog bhí mé díreach tar éis a punches caith. Blianta ó shin, ba mhaith liom féachaint ar an Contender agus a fheiceáil conas a bhí a léirítear na dhornálaithe mar dhaoine gairmiúla agus lúthchleasaithe meas i gcomparáid le roinnt de na Léiríonn réaltacht troid eile den am. Thosaigh mé ag foghlaim níos mó faoi stair agus oidhreacht dornálaíocht agus bhí níos mó agus níos mó suim sa spórt.”
“Bhí mé cheana féin MMA Trodaire ar bun nuair a thóg mé mo chéad troid dornálaíochta. Chuaigh mé i gcrích go dtí Pittsburgh chun oiliúint don dara troid dornálaíochta ach roinnt opponents thit tríd agus cuireadh an seó ar ceal sa deireadh mar gheall ar stoirm sneachta. Tar éis thit go troid trí tairgeadh mé troid MMA eile, don chéad uair ag HWT, le chéile comhraic a dhiúltaigh troid liom mar athsholáthair nóiméad deireanach choinne ar troid a bhí sé sceidealta le haghaidh. Mhí ina dhiaidh sin d'iarr sé orm amach anois ar mian leo dul i ngleic. Ghlac mé go in áit go pearsanta mar sin chuaigh mé ar ais go dtí MMA chun troid dó agus bhuaigh. Tar éis gur thosaigh mé ag fáil a lán de na tairiscintí chun troid ar HWT i MMA agus ó tháinig chun bheith ina 6 am HWT Champion thar cheithre cinn éagsúla, ach fós ag iarraidh a bosca arís.”
Barrett thosaigh an chuideachta H.I.T.M. Arduithe Céime, a sheasann don Stair I An Making, toisc go raibh sé tuirseach de ag fanacht le deis i dornálaíocht, agus freisin ag iarraidh chun cabhrú le trodaithe eile a thuilleadh a ngairmeacha beatha féin.
“Tá mé íobairt an méid sin agus tiomanta mé féin chomh fada gur bhraith mé go raibh sé in am a rialú de mo chuid gcinniúint féin a ghlacadh. Níl cuma cé chomh deacair Tá mé ag obair nó conas ullmhaithe Tá mé, Bhí mé i gcónaí d'fhág ag fanacht le deis. Ag mo chuideachta chun cinn féin deireadh leis an feithimh. Is féidir liom troid anois ar seónna eile, nó mo chuid féin agus mé féin a choinneáil gníomhach. Thosaigh mé H.I.T.M. Arduithe Céime gan a bheith ina thionscnóir, ach a bheith ina Trodaire. Is é mo fócas go hiomlán ar an Satharn beag, ach i gcúl mo aigne tá mé ag smaoineamh cheana féin maidir chur chun cinn eile a thaispeáint. Sé seo go bunúsach leis an gcomhrac is lárnach i mo shaol. Ní amháin Tá mé ag transitioning ais go dtí dornálaíochta, ach is é mo chéad troid ar ais ó gortú le mo lámh chóir a bheith dar críoch mo shaol. Ar a bharr sin, tá sé an chéad thaispeáint mo chuideachta chun cinn riamh. Bhraith mé go raibh a bhfuil an troid i Beach Haven slí iontach rud éigin difriúil agus speisialta don phobal áitiúil a dhéanamh agus a thabhairt ar ais go dtí áit a bhfuil mé gotten i bhfad ó.”
Mar sin, nuair a d'iarr má tá sé seo an deireadh a Gairme MMA, Tá Barrett oscailte do rud ar bith.
“Nach bhfuil mé shíl go hionraic i bhfad faoi MMA. Ba mhaith liom go fírinneach dornálaíochta a choinneáil, ach nach bhfuil mé dúnta go hiomlán ar an doras ar MMA.
Barrett dúirt a bheith nach bhfuil Trodaire agus tionscnóir bhí éasca ag tabhairt sé ar a gcuma 2ú sa fáinne.
“Tá sé ag déileáil deacair le gach ceann de na glaonna teileafóin, ríomhphoist, agus pleanáil, go léir agus ag iarraidh a ullmhú le haghaidh troid. Ní raibh amanna nuair a bhí mé ag déanamh mo cardio ar maidin ar an agus ba mhaith liom a bheith ar an teileafón agus iad ag obair amach gnó a láimhseáil. Mar a fuair an gcomhrac níos dlúithe, Bhí mé chun bhfeidhm mé féin a ghlacadh níos mó ama chun oiliúint agus mé féin a ullmhú. Bhí sé deacair a fanacht dírithe ag amanna mar gheall ar choinnigh mo chéile comhraic ag athrú, agus nuair a thit an ceann deireanach trí agus a luaidhtear siad Holdbrooks, Dúirt mé díreach tar éis yes go bhféadfaí mé ag troid.”
“Tá mé ag onóir go bhfuil an an tallann ní mór dúinn ar an gcárta a bheith go bhfuil sé seo ár gcéad seó. Is dóigh liom beannaithe chun troid i mo backyard de Long Beach Island agus ba chóir é seo a bheith ina oíche iontach de ghníomhaíocht.”

Here’s what press conference participants had to say:
Michael Yormark – Uachtarán & Chief of Branding and Strategy of Roc Nation
“Led by our Chairman JAY Z and his partners, Roc Nation was founded to work with artists and entertainers to guide them and help them build their careers even beyond the boundaries of the music industry. It is fitting then, that today we stand in a setting named for the legendary BB King – may he rest in peace – an artist and a man that knew no boundaries during a career that transcended his art. In a few short years, Roc Nation itself has expanded beyond the world of music, diversifying in a way that many never thought possible. Today we begin to celebrate a landmark in that expansion, as another legend, World Champion Miguel Cotto, prepares to headline Roc Nation’s first major fight on Saturday night against Daniel Geale, live at Barclays Center and on HBO.”
“When Roc Nation founded its boxing division less than a year ago, we committed to doing things differently, and what you will see on Saturday night will be different. The eyes of the boxing world will be fixed on Barclays Center on Saturday, with celebrities and VIP’s lining the ring and a captivated audience watching at home. They will watch with anticipation, awaiting not only a masterful performance from the champion Miguel Cotto against a formidable opponent, but also an electric appearance from Roc Nation artist and hip-hop superstar Big Sean, as well as the voice of New York Angie Martinez, and a host of other surprises that will make this live boxing experience different from anything you’ve ever seen before.”
“Saturday is the start of something new and fresh for the boxing industry. It is a chance for all of us to show boxing fans, and sports and entertainment fans around the world, that the action on fight night can and will live up to the hype.”
Hector Soto – Miguel Cotto Promotions
“It has been several months of hard work and dedication. Puerto Rico will shine again on the night of June 6 when Miguel Cotto defends his titles successfully.”
Ululy Rafael Martinez – Puerto Rican Day Parade
“We’re really happy this year to formalize a relationship with Miguel Cotto thanks to Roc Nation Sports and Miguel Cotto Promotions. I also want to thank Roc Nation Sports and Miguel Cotto Promotions for contributing to our scholarship fund. They are helping us empower young high school students and college students we provide scholarships to so they can further their education. I’m encouraging everyone planning on coming to the Parade on June 14 to support our man Miguel Cotto On Saturday, Meitheamh 6 at Barclays Center for the boxing match of the year.”
David Berlin – New York Athletic Commission
“Miguel Cotto and Daniel Geale represent the best in boxing. These are men that carry themselves with dignity both inside and outside the ring. Men who can be respectful because they don’t have to prove themselves with words. Where they prove themselves each and every time they fight is inside that ring.”
“Now that I am with the commission, I no longer root for fighters. I’m in a neutral role, but I do root for fights. I root for fights when fighters come into the ring and they fight hard but they leave the ring safely. I root for fights that satisfy the fans and fights where the right man has his hand raised at the end. That of course is where the New York State Athletic Commission comes in.
“This promises to be a competitive fight. Obviously a competitive fight means it’s a hard night for judges, but what I’m committing to the fighters and fans is that we are going to have competent, qualified and neutral officials in place and the right man is going to have his hand raised at the end of the fight. I wish both men good luck on Saturday night.”
Brett Yormark – CEO of Barclays Center and the Brooklyn Nets
“We’re expecting a great night on Saturday night. Mar sin,, hopefully we see all of you. Tá ticéid fós ar díol. Saturday night represents our 13ú night of championship boxing at Barclays Center since we opened the building 32 months ago and boxing plays a huge role in what we do in Brooklyn.”
Peter Nelson – Vice President of Programming HBO Sports Programming
“We look forward to two fighters who have always rose to every challenge that has been put in front of them. Daniel Geale had a lucrative opportunity at one point in time to make his HBO debut and he actually decided instead to go to Germany, to Felix Sturm’s backyard, fight him for his world titles and ended up lifting the titles away from him. He is naturally the largest opponent that Miguel Cotto has ever fought and he’s stepped up to every challenge that’s ever been put in front of him.”
“Miguel Cotto…the last time he stepped into the ring, he entered it an underdog and he ended up leaving it the lineal middleweight champion. He joined just a handful of fighters ever to win four world titles in four separate divisions and he was the first man from Puerto Rico ever to do so. He performed what I saw as one of the strangest punches ever in boxing when he touched a man on the temple and it caused his knee to twist into a knot. I’ve never seen that happen. It was an extraordinary performance.”
“We look to see in this fight, fighters who are going to give us moments of great bravery and great courage. These are the kind of men we want to have on the network. That’s what makes great fights.”
Gary Shaw – Gary Shaw Productions
“I have a personal problem with catch weights. We accepted the catch weight of 157 and I’m not here to complain about the catch weight. We’re going to make the weight. It’s going to be tough. I believe that if a fighter wants to fight at any weight that he wants to fight at, he has that opportunity, but he shouldn’t stop the opponent from fighting at the sanctioned weight which in this case is 160.”
“I believe Daniel Geale is going to win the fight. I believe that Miguel and his team made a mistake. If they were looking at the Golovkin fight, thinking that’s the Daniel that is going to come into the ring…it will not be that same Daniel Geale.”
“It’s truly an honor to represent Daniel Geale because he’s a different young man. The first time I met him, I flew to Germany. I looked around and I couldn’t identify Daniel Geale. Little did I know, he was standing against the back wall. After taking my seat at the dais, Daniel Geale walked up. I looked at him and I said “we’re in trouble! This kid looks like a choir boy not a fighter,” but he gave it all he got and he won the fight. He’s a family man. Doesn’t travel with an entourage. Always on time. Trains hard. Does everything that a true champion has to do.”
Daniel Geale – Former Two-Time World Champion
“This is a huge opportunity and I’m very excited. We’re so excited as a team that this fight is taking place. We’ve put a great training camp in for this fight and I’m feeling as good as I ever have. Níl aon leithscéal. I’m going in as the best fighter I can possibly be. I’m hoping Miguel Cotto is the best fighter he can be as well. I want the fans to enjoy a great fight and I believe it will be a great fight. I can’t wait to walk away with another title. I’m going in very confident and I know a lot of people aren’t giving me much of a chance, but I have a huge amount of confidence in myself knowing I’ve completed a great training camp. Knowing that I have put everything that I possibly can into it and knowing that I have such a great team. I look forward to Saturday night.”
Freddie Roach – Cotto’s Trainer
“We’ve had a great training camp. Miguel is in great shape. Our sparring partners on our team have been great. And we’re ready for this fight. Gary’s been making a big deal about catch weights, but they have been around for a long time and he knows how to read a contract and he’s had that contract for a long time now, so I don’t think that’s an issue. We look forward to seeing you at the fight.”
Miguel Cotto – WBC & Ring Magazine Middleweight World Champion
“I want to thank my lovely family for being here with my. My kids, my wife, my lovely mom. Thank you for always supporting my career no matter how hard it seems or looks to you. I love you.”
“I think that people are making a big issue where there does not need to be a big issue with catch weights. Freddie, back in 2009, made me go down from 147 go 145. Did anyone hear anything about Miguel Cotto disagreeing with the catch weights? Ná Gan, I was a gentlemen the whole way. Catch weights were our main point to make this fight happen. Daniel and his team agreed to going down to 157 and I hope he can make weight on Friday. I hope to see everyone there on Saturday night.”
“Freddie brings the confidence back to Miguel. He comes every day no matter what he feels and gives his best to me. When you have this kind of person in front of you giving you his best and making sure that you are going to do your best, the only way you can pay him back is bringing your best too. We only talk about boxing when we are in the gym. He’s my trainer there, but as soon as we finish our training session, he’s my friend.”

Here’s what Cotto and his trainer, Freddie Roach, Bhí a rá:
Miguel Cotto – WBC & Ring Magazine Middleweight World Champion
“I feel good and in the best shape possible. I just feel ready. I know Geale is a tough opponent and he is going to bring his best on Meitheamh 6, but I trust in the work we have done here in Los Angeles and I’m going to bring my best too.”
“After 14 years in boxing, the best decision I could have made was to take the last year off. My mind was not in boxing, but since I got here with Freddie, everything is working perfectly again. Boxing is all I know. Is Dornálaíochta mo shaol. Through boxing, I raised my family and I work to provide the best future for them. They are the reason I love boxing.”
“Boxing at this point in my career is a battle with myself. Everyday I need to bring my best in the gym from morning to evening. Next week has to be better than last week. I need to ask myself to be better every day. I know that if I bring my best to the gym every day, I can bring my best the night ofMeitheamh 6 against Geale.”
“Freddie comes here every day with the best attitude and he knows how to get the best out of me.”
“It will have been 364 days to the day on Meitheamh 6 since I have been in the ring. It’s not difficult to get back in after this long stretch. I’ve been focused on my work. I have gained more knowledge during my time off in order to get myself ready to fight again.”
“Daniel Geale is the next chapter in my career. After I get through him, I can talk about what comes next.”
Freddie Roach – Cotto’s Trainer
“Miguel’s sparring has been great. His movement has been very good. It’s hard on me in the ring! His body shots are very effective and the head shots come with it. I think we are going to get a late round knockout. Geale is tough enough to go some rounds, but a knockout in a late round…that’s my call.”
“One of Miguel’s greatest strength against Geale will be his body shots, but Miguel’s knowledge in the ring will be Geale’s ultimate undoing.”
“He has found a new home here at Wild Card and I’m glad I provided that for him. He loves this gym. He loves the atmosphere. He’s thrived in this environment and when a fighter is in a good mood and happy, he performs at the highest level.”

DANIEL GEALE NEW YORK MEDIA WORKOUT QUOTES & Grianghraif
FORMER TWO-TIME WORLD CHAMPION DANIEL GEALE TO CHALLENGE
WBC MIDDLEWEIGHT WORLD CHAMPION MIGUEL COTTO
AR Meitheamh 6, 2015 AT BARCLAYS CENTER IN BROOKLYN LIVE ON HBO®
ARNA THÍOLACADH AG ROC NATION SPÓIRT + MIGUEL COTTO PROMOTIONS
Nua-Eabhrac (Bealtaine 19, 2015) – Miguel Cotto (39-4, 32 KO s), the reigning WBC and Ring Magazine Middleweight World Champion and the first native of Puerto Rico to become world champion in four different weight classes will defend his titles against former Two-Time World Champion Daniel Geale (31-3, 16 KO s) of Australia on Meitheamh 6, 2015 at Barclays Center in Brooklyn in a 12-round fight that will be televised live on HBO. Geale hosted a New York City media workout this afternoon at Mendez Boxing Gym in preparation for his title challenge against Cotto. Here’s what Geale, and his American promoter Gary Shaw, Bhí a rá:
Daniel Geale – Former Two-Time World Champion
“Cotto has trouble in stages against guys that move and use their reach. He knows that’s what I’m going to be doing and he’s going to be trying to counter that with aggression and coming forward. I’m going to use my abilities and not get caught up in his game plan.”
“The game plan is to go in and fight my fight. It’s not to get sucked in. It’s not to get caught up in what he [Cócaráilte] is doing. It’s to do what I do best.”
“This is going to be a huge fight for me. Fighting a guy like Miguel who’s fought some of the greatest fighters is going to be a great test. We’re going in very confident.”
“I want this one badly. It’s something that we have wanted for a while and I’m extremely excited. I’ve got guys like Gary Shaw and my team at the Grange from Australia and they are working very hard behind the scenes. I’m just going to worry about my job and they do their job greatly. I just worry about getting myself in perfect condition.”
Gary Shaw – President of Gary Shaw Productions
“If Daniel wins, Cotto has a rematch clause, so if Cotto wants the immediate rematch then that’s what he gets. Más rud é nach, according to WBC, it would be GGG again, but it doesn’t make a difference. Daniel will fight anybody, áit ar bith. We went to Germany and fought Strum on his territory. He’s coming to New York which is Cotto’s town. It just doesn’t make a difference when you have a great fighter.”
“It’s going to be a great show and the fans are going to get what they want. Tune in for a great fight on Meitheamh 6. It’s going to be a great night of boxing.”
