“This show on August 12 is jam-packed with action for boxing fans as they will get an exciting world title clash in addition to some of the area’s top rising talent in tough contests live on SHOWTIME,»Сказаў Том Браўн, Прэзідэнт TGB Акцыі. “Emmanuel Rodriguez is hungry to make a second run as world champion at bantamweight and will be given all he can handle by the red-hot Melvin Lopez. With two of Maryland’s top rising stars in Gary Antuanne Russell and Travon Marshall stepping in for separate bouts before that showdown, this lines up to be a can’t-miss card at MGM National Harbor.”

Fighting out of Manati, Пуэрта-Рыка, Радрыгес(21-2, 13 КО) defeated the previously unbeaten Gary Antonio Russell last October by technical decision to put himself back into position to fight for the world title. The 30-year-old originally won the IBF Bantamweight World Title with a unanimous decision victory over Paul Butler in 2018 and successfully defended it against the then-unbeaten Jason Moloney. Rodríguez went on to lose the title to former undisputed champion Naoya Inoue in their May 2019 title bout.

“I’m happy to have this chance to become a world champion again,- сказаў Радрыгес. “We’re gonna go out there to win in spectacular fashion and my goal is to show that I’m the best fighter in the world at 118-pounds. My goal is to become undisputed at bantamweight, however I’m not overlooking Melvin Lopez, because he’s a good fighter and will come to give it his all on August 12.”

The 25-year-old Lopez (29-1, 19 КО) has won eight-straight fights since suffering his only career loss in October 2019. Originally from Nicaragua and now fighting out of Miami, Lopez has fought professionally since 2015 and began competing stateside in 2018. Lopez scored three victories in 2022, starting the year with knockouts of Juan Gabriel Medina and Victor Ruiz, before most recently defeating Jobert Alvarez last December. Out of his last 10 перамогі, Lopez has ended nine of those inside of the distance.

“I’m very excited that the time is almost here to fight for a world title,"Сказаў Лопес. “We’ve had a great training camp and everyone has sacrificed and worked hard so that we’re at our best on August 12. I’m going to show everyone why I earned this opportunity and repay my team for all of their efforts. I have a lot of respect for Emmanuel, but the best man will have his hand raised when we share the ring.”


Fighting out of his native Capitol Heights, Md., Расэл (16-0, 16 КО) will carry on the legacy left by his late father Gary Sr. A member of one of the sport’s preeminent fighting families, Russell trains alongside his older brothers, former WBC Featherweight Champion Gary Jr. and bantamweight contender Gary Antonio. The 26-year-old has yet to allow an opponent to make it to the final bell since turning pro in 2017 following his run representing the U.S. at the Rio 2016 Летнія Алімпійскія гульні. Russell defeated his most accomplished foes to date in 2022, stopping former champion Viktor Postol in February before a TKO win against former two-division champion Rances Barthelemy in July.

“When you’re a student of the game like me, you have to consider that each step we take is about more than self-gratification. We’re doing this for keeps,- сказаў Расэл. “Kent Cruz has to catch up to me, but there’s no need for me to look back. The only direction I’m going is forward and that means putting on a spectacular performance on August 12, and proving I’m the next world champion in this division.”

The 30-year-old Cruz (16-0-3, 10 КО) steps back into the ring after a pair of draws against fellow unbeaten Enriko Gogokhia in February and then November 2022. A native of St. Луіс, Мо, Cruz defeated veterans Erik Humberto Castillo and Travis Hartman following a draw against Carlos Mohamed Rodriguez in April 2018. Cruz will pick up his past ring history with the Russell family on August 12, looking to avenge an amateur loss to Gary Allan Russell, Gary Antuanne’s older brother.

“I’m very excited for this fight on August 12,” said Cruz. “I’ve been waiting for a fight like this my whole career, so we didn’t hesitate when offered this one. I’m coming in as the underdog and that’s what’s fueling me. I’ve been an underdog my whole life and on August 12 I’m gonna shock the world. When I win this fight, I’ll be in contention to fight for a world title and have my chance to achieve my childhood dream.”

At just 22-years-old, Маршал (8-0, 7 КО) has quickly shown the skill, power and poise to become a highly regarded prospect in just eight fights. Born in Landover, Md., and now fighting out of Capitol Heights, Md., Marshall is trained by former contender Andrew Council and has already scored two stoppages in 2023. Most recently he dominated veteran contender Justin DeLoach via third-round knockout in March, his most impressive victory to date.

“I’m really excited to be fighting at home in front of my family, friends and fans on August 12,” said Marshall. “I’m working hard every day in the gym so that when fight night comes I’m 100% and ready to put on a great performance for everyone watching. My goal is to show everyone that I belong on the big stage, and that starts with a victory over Gabriel Maestre.”

A two-time Olympian for his home country of Venezuela, Maestre (5-0-1, 4 КО) had an extensive amateur run that included victories over Brian Castano, Carlos Adames, Alexander Besputin, Oscar Molina and Brian Ceballo. The 36-year-old made his U.S. debut with a controversial decision victory over Mykal Fox in August 2021 before fighting fellow unbeaten Taras Shelestyuk to a draw last March. Зусім нядаўна, Maestre defeated former two-division champion Devon Alexander after three rounds in April.

“I’m very ready for this fight against Travon Marshall,” said Maestre. “We are focused on the work that we need to put in so that we are victorious on August 12. I’m focused on having my hand raised and putting on a good show. We want to leave a good impression with the fans and move on to fight the big names in the welterweight division.”

Карсан, Каліфорніі. (Жнівень 14, 2021) - чэмпіён свету па лёгкай вазе WBO Джон Рыэль Казімера перамог чэмпіёна двух дывізіёнаў Гільерма Рыгонды захаваць свой тытул у суботу ўвечары ў прамым эфіры SHOWTIME, выступаючы ў якасці хэдлайнера падзеі Прэм'ер -міністр бокса ў спартыўным парку "Годнасць здароўя" ў Карсане, Каліфорнія.

Чэмпіён свету ў трох дывізіёнах, Чэмпіянат (31-4, 21 КО) зрабіў сваю другую паспяховую абарону тытула ў 118 фунтаў, атрымаўшы лепшую ў кар'еры перамогу над даўнім чэмпіёнам у 122 кілаграмы Рыгонда (20-2, 13 КО), які перайшоў у цяжкую вагу 2020.

“Я рады атрымаць перамогу,- сказаў Казімера. «Рыгонда-добры баксёр і двухразовы прызёр Алімпійскіх гульняў. Я хваляваўся, таму што ён сказаў, што не будзе бегаць, але ён увесь час бегаў ".

Паядынак пачаўся з першага круга насычаных падзеямі, у якім на імгненне высветлілася, што левы кручок Казімера ў патыліцы Рыгонда прывядзе да накдаўну, але суддзя Джэры Канту пастанавіў, што момант праскочыў. Падчас абмену, Казімера нанёс некалькі ўдараў, а Рыгонда быў на адным калене, атрымаўшы папярэджанне ад суддзі.

З гэтага моманту, Рыгонда застаўся ўстойлівым да абарончай стратэгіі, у выніку якой Казімера быў вымушаны пераследваць суперніка па рынгу. Тым часам, Казімера застаўся адданым прасоўванню наперад, імкнецца запаволіць Рыгонда з дапамогай стрэлаў у цела, каб наладзіць моцныя стрэлы ў галаву.

“Мае чаканні былі на накаўт,- сказаў Казімера. «Я і ўсе мае прыхільнікі гэтага хацелі. Я зрабіў усё магчымае, каб выбіць яго, але ён проста бег і не ваяваў ».

Рыгонда з задавальненнем супрацьстаяў свайму суперніку, наносячы большасць пашкоджанняў з варыяцыямі небяспечнай левай рукі. У паядынку з мноствам блізкіх раундаў, Казімера завяршыў бой вузкім 47 для 44 край у ўдарах прызямліўся, у тым ліку 41-28 падлічыць магутныя ўдары.

Гэтых магутных удараў і ўстойлівай агрэсіі аказалася дастаткова, каб Казімера ўтрымаць свой 118-кілаграмовы тытул у вачах суддзяў, як ацэнкі 117-111 і 116-112 адмяніла меркаванне аднаго суддзі 115-113 карта на карысць Рыгонда. У той час як Рыгонда аспрэчваў гэтае рашэнне, Казімера з нецярпеннем чакаў патэнцыйных сутыкненняў на аб'яднанне з чэмпіёнам WBC Нуніто Донаірам і ўладальнікам тытула WBA і IBF Наоя Інуэ.

“Ніхто не хоча са мной ваяваць, таму што я сарваў іх на рынгу,- сказаў Рыгонда. «Я атрымаў удары, неабходныя для таго, каб выйграць бой сёння ўвечары. Вось як я выйграю. У мяне ёсць гэтыя навыкі, дадзеныя Богам, і менавіта так я іх праяўляю. Я унікальны баец. Гэта мой стыль, і гэта адзіны, які я ведаю. Вы бачыце, што я ўсё ж лепш за ўсіх у палегчаных вагавых катэгорыях, і я буду працягваць барацьбу.”

“У мяне быў план з трох баёў,- сказаў Казімера. «Спачатку быў Рыгонда, і я збіў яго. Далей ідзе Nonito Donaire, а потым, нарэшце, Naoya Inoue.”

Адным з галоўных падзей стаў прэтэндэнт на рост Гэры Расэл-Антоніа (18-0, 12 КО) і былы чэмпіён свету Эмануэль Радрыгес (19-2, 12 КО) змагацца за непрыняцце рашэння 16 секунды да першага раунда іх 118-кілаграмовага матчу, пасля выпадковага ўдару галавой траўму Радрыгеса і спыніў бой.

“Здараецца,- сказаў Расэл. «Я хацеў усталяваць свой удар, і я паспрабаваў наладзіць кручок, і ён увайшоў адначасова. Гэта вельмі расчароўвае ".

“Я адчуваю сябе нармальна,- сказаў Радрыгес. «Я крыху расчараваны пасля таго, як паклаў усю гэтую працу, каб бой так хутка скончыўся, нічога не адбылося. З ударам галавы, магчыма, калі б не было крыві, мы маглі б працягваць. Але аднойчы я ўбачыў усю кроў, Я ведаў, што ўсё скончана ".

Бітва за скрыжаванне часовага тытула WBA у лёгкай вазе павінна была прапанаваць Расэлу магчымасць зарэкамендаваць сябе як сапраўдны прэтэндэнт на тытул і даць Радрыгесу магчымасць зрабіць крок бліжэй да таго, каб стаць чэмпіёнам у двух дывізіёнах. Радрыгес спрабаваў супрацьстаяць нападу Расэла, што прывяло да таго, што дзве паўднёвыя лапы сутыкнуліся галовамі.

“Я фактычна быў у лагеры каля чатырох месяцаў,- сказаў Расэл. «Я выдатна падрыхтаваўся да гэтага бою. Я сапраўды хацеў паказаць свае таленты і паказаць усім, што ёсць у маім арсенале. На жаль, адбыўся ўдар галавой ».

Радрыгес адразу ж упаў на палатно і ў яго з носа сышла кроў, прымусіўшы суддзю Шэран Сэндс адмовіцца ад паядынку, які быў прызнаны без рашэння.

“Вядома, Я хацеў бы вярнуцца,- сказаў Расэл. «Калі ён можа гэта зрабіць, Я хачу вярнуцца сюды разам з Радрыгесам ".

“Я не хачу страціць стан, у якім я знаходжуся,- сказаў Радрыгес. «Я вельмі добра рыхтаваўся да гэтага бою. Як толькі траўма будзе выпраўлена, Я вярнуся на рынг, і я хацеў бы зноў змагацца з Расэлам.”

У першым баі, былы чэмпіён свету Rau'shee Уорэн (19-3, 5 КО) пераважаюць Дэміен Vazquez (16-3-1, 12 КО) на шляху да перапынку ў другім раўндзе ў іх разборках у лёгкай вазе. Уорэн атрымаў сваю першую перамогу накаўтам 2015, пасля пераадолення дыстанцыі ў папярэдніх васьмі баях.

«На гэты раз я спрабаваў паказаць ім нешта іншае,- сказаў Уорэн. «У мяне заўсёды была ўлада, але гэты трэніровачны лагер быў зусім іншым. Я сядзеў на ўдарах і працаваў над чымсьці іншым. Гэта спрацавала на рынгу.

«Я заўсёды ведаў, што ў мяне такая сіла, і я заўсёды ведаў, што ў мяне такая хуткасць. Гаворка ідзе толькі пра тое, каб не спяшацца на рынг і дазволіць ім прыйсці. Калі я ўбачыў магчымасць, Я пайшоў на гэта ».

Трохразовы ЗША. Алімпіец, Уорэн хутка выйшаў у першым раўндзе, выкарыстоўваючы сваю перавагу ў хуткасці, абыграў Васкеса, злучыўшыся правай рукой пасярэдзіне рамкі, якая забіла першы накдаун бою. Васкес змог падняцца на ногі, але быў пасланы на палатно другі раз праз імгненні іншай вострай правай рукой Уорэна.

Уорэн Цынцынаці ўразіў 22 з 39 сілавыя ўдары ў гэтым першым раундзе, і працягнуў сваё дамінаванне ў другім. Уорэн выдатна адрэгуляваў правую левую руку, якая моцна скаланула Васкеса, прымусіўшы арбітра Рэя Карону ўскочыць і спыніць бой 2:18 у другім туры.

«Наступны бой - гэта тытульны бой,- сказаў Уорэн. «Я прэтэндэнт нумар адзін на WBA. Я хачу падзякаваць сваёй камандзе за тое, што яна паставіла мяне на гэтую пасаду і падштурхнула. Яны ведаюць, які я баец. Я збіраюся стаць чэмпіёнам. У наступным баі я захопліваю гэты тытул. Магчыма, сёння ўвечары я пазмагаюся з пераможцам галоўнай падзеі (Рыгонды супраць. Чэмпіянат)."

SHOWTIME паказвалі асноўныя моманты нетэлевізійнай бойкі, у якой назіралася непераможная рост перспектывы Брандун Лі (23-0, 21 КО) захаваць яго бездакорны ўлік некранутым, як ён зарэзаў сваё 13й накаўт першага раўнда кар'еры з сенсацыйным выступам супраць Эзэквіэль Фернандэс (28-5-1, 3 КО).

“Мой выступ быў добра,- сказаў Лі. «Магло быць лепш. Заўсёды ёсць куды паляпшацца. У рэшце рэшт,, мы зрабілі працу. Я вызначана гатовы да наступнага ўзроўню. Мне падыходзіць толькі ўзмацняць канкурэнцыю. Я вазьму ўсіх, хто гатовы.”

Тэлетрансляцыя суботняй трансляцыі чэмпіёнскага чэмпіянату па боксе будзе паказана ў нядзелю, Жнівень 15 на 9 a.m. ET/PT у SHOWTIME і аўторак, Жнівень 17 на 10 p.m. ET/PT на SHOWTIME Extreme.

Two-Division World Champion Guillermo Rigondeaux Takes Bantamweight World Champion John Riel Casimero Saturday, Жнівень 14 Live on SHOWTIME Headlining a Premier Boxing Champions Event from Dignity Health Sports Park in Carson, Каліфорнія

STAFFORD, Тэхас. (Жнівень 5, 2021) – Two-division world champion Гільерма Рыгонды gave insight into his training camp as he prepares to take on WBO Bantamweight World Champion Джон Рыэль Казімера у суботу, Жнівень 14 in the main event live on SHOWTIME from Dignity Health Sports Park in Carson, California in a Premier Boxing Champions event.

Мерапрыемства прасоўвае TGB Promotions. Квіткі прадаюцца зараз і іх можна набыць на AXS.com. The SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast will begin at 10 p.m. ET / 7 p.m. PT and will see Cuba’s two-time Olympic gold medalist Rigondeaux, who has earned pound-for-pound recognition at various points in his career, return to action against the Philippine’s Casimero, a three-division world champion looking for a career-best victory in his second 118-pound title defense.

Here is what Rigondeaux had to say about training camp with Ronnie Shields and more:

On his upcoming matchup with John Riel Casimero: “It has been a very focused camp, and I have found inspiration watching the Olympics, and it has lit a spark in me. Winning two gold medals in my early years gives me added incentive to win this fight. I want to prove to the world that I am one of the best boxers ever, and that I have a lot left to give in this sport. I am confident that I am going to do that against the most avoided fighter in my weight class. Casimero is a dangerous fighter and a very powerful puncher, but I’m going to tame him with great boxing skills.”

On his recent training camp with coach Ronnie Shields: “Training in Texas with Ronnie Shields has been great and our energy working together is fantastic. Ronnie has had a lot of world champions, and has a very professional boxing gym, with a lot of world champions and fighters who are competing at the highest level of the sport. I am motivated to work hard, not just to reach my own goals, but by all the young fighters in the gym who are driven and focused. The atmosphere has brought something new out of me. I’m revived and feeling young again.”

On fighting for WBO world title: “It always feels good fighting for a world title, and I have had the WBO title before after I beat Nonito Donaire, but this time I’m going up against a hungry young lion. I am looking to capture another world title, and give another great fight that fans will talk about for years.”

On returning to the ring after a year-long layoff: “I feel good. I think at this point in my career, all the time away from the ring helps. I know how to fight and I know how to train, the big thing is knowing how to recover, and not damage my body. I am doing a good job at staying sharp in the gym, but not over training. A win against Casimero will do wonders for my career.”

A longtime champion of the 122-pound division, Рыгонды (20-1, 13 КО) moved down in weight and captured a WBA bantamweight title against Liborio Solis in February 2020 на SHOWTIME. Since turning professional in 2009 after one of the best amateur careers in history, Rigondeaux has showcased masterful technical skills that made him a unified super bantamweight world champion and perennial member of the pound-for-pound list. A two-time Olympic gold medalist for his native Cuba, Rigondeaux made his name with victories over the likes of Nonito Donaire, Rico Ramos and Joseph Agbeko.

“This is a big fight for me and my team because we have a chance to win that WBO title,- сказаў Рыгонда. “Fighting on SHOWTIME once again is going to be fun and I’m grateful for the opportunity. Although I’ve been out of the ring for well over a year, I’m still in great shape and have plans to ruin Casimero’s dreams. I know he has a lot of power, but he’s fighting a man with excellent boxing skills and a high ring IQ. I’m going to box circles around Casimero and show him what ‘El Chacal’ is all about. My trainer Ronnie Shields, and I have been working on some new tricks, so don’t be surprised if I knock him out.”

The 32-year-old Casimero (30-4, 21 КО) of Ormoc City, Leyte, Philippines will make his second title defense in this August 14 супадаюць, having successfully defended it for the first time by knocking out Duke Micah in September 2020. Casimero trains in Las Vegas and originally won the title with an impressive third-round stoppage of Zolani Tete in November 2019. The three-division champion had previously captured titles at flyweight and light flyweight in a career that dates back to 2007. This will be his third career fight in the U.S. and his second to take place at Dignity Health Sports Park.

“I am very excited to be back on SHOWTIME and fighting in Southern California where a lot of Filipino fans can come see me fight,- сказаў Казімера. “I look forward to defending my title against Guillermo Rigondeaux. Rigondeaux is known to a lot of Filipino fans for beating my fellow countryman Nonito Donaire . I will show the boxing world how to beat Rigondeaux and send him into retirement once and for all.”

The middle brother between WBC Featherweight Champion Gary Jr. і 2016 U.S. Olympian Gary Antuanne, Антоніа Расэл (18-0, 12 КО) announced his arrival amongst the bantamweight division contenders with a technical decision over former world champion Juan Carlos Payano in December 2020 на SHOWTIME. The 28-year-old from Capitol Heights, Мэрыленд. стаў прафесіяналам у 2015 after an impressive amateur career. After four wins in 2019, Russell kicked off 2020 defeating Jesus Martinez in February.

“I’m very excited for this fight on August 14 на SHOWTIME,- сказаў Расэл. “I’ve put in the work and I’m always ready to fight, no matter when the call comes. I’m so focused right now. Rodriguez is the only thing on my mind and I’m ready to put on a show.”

The 28-year-old Rodríguez (19-2, 12 КО) returns to action after dropping a controversial split-decision to Reymart Gaballo last December on SHOWTIME. Fighting out of Manati, Пуэрта-Рыка, Rodríguez won the IBF Bantamweight World Title with a unanimous decision victory over Paul Butler in 2018 and successfully defended it against then-unbeaten Jason Moloney. Rodríguez went on to lose the title to unbeaten champion Naoya Inoue in their May 2019 title bout.

“I can’t wait to get back in the ring for this fight,” said Rodríguez. “Everyone knows what happened in my last fight against Gaballo. На гэты раз, I’m not leaving it up to the judges. I’m going for the knockout and a statement victory.”

Трусіны садок (18-3, 4 КО) bounced back from a close decision loss in a world title fight against then unbeaten former champion Nordine Oubaali in January 2019 by earning decisions over Gilberto Mendoza and Sharone Carter. A southpaw from Cincinnati, Агаё, Warren won the WBA Bantamweight World Championship with a majority decision over Juan Carlos Payano in 2016 and lost the title the next year to Zhanat Zhakiyanov by split-decision. The 34-year-old became the first three-time Olympic boxer from the U.S. when he qualified for consecutive Olympic teams in 2004, 2008 і 2012.

“Vázquez is not the type of fighter that can compete with me,- сказаў Уорэн. “When they sent me the name, I looked at one of his fights and 10 seconds was all I needed to see. I really want to face Rigondeaux, but I’m going to handle this and I’m going to wait until I get who I want to get. I’ve been sparring with a lot of top amateurs and that’s been keeping me sharp. They throw punches in bunches and they’re keeping me on my toes heading into August 14.”

The 24-year-old southpaw Vázquez (15-2-1, 7 КО) was born in Thornton, Col. and now fights out of Las Vegas. The younger brother of former two-time champion Israel Vázquez, he most recently lost to super bantamweight champion Brandon Figueroa last September after having previously scored a stoppage win over Alejandro Moreno in February of 2020. Vázquez turned pro in 2013 and reeled off 14 consecutive wins to begin his career in the paid ranks.

“This is a great opportunity for me,” said Vázquez. “I turned pro at sixteen-years-old, so I took a much needed break after the Brandon Figueroa fight. Now I’m back and more ready than ever. I’m back fighting at bantamweight and that’s for sure the best weight for me going forward. I’m ready to show the world what I’m capable of. Гэта будзе вайна. Warren is a world class fighter, but if he thinks this is an easy fight, then he is totally mistaken and I’ll prove it on August 14.”

Ункасвилль, Канэктыкут. – December 20, 2020 – Undefeated bantamweight Reymart Gaballo scored a controversial split-decision victory over former world champion Эмануэль Радрыгес in the main event of Saturday night’s SHOWTIMEBOXING: SPECIAL EDITION from Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn., in an event presented by Premier Boxing Champions. З перамогай, Gaballo picked up the vacant interim WBC Bantamweight Title.

Saturday’s headliner in the last SHOWTIME BOXING event of 2020 was competitive from the opening bell. In only three of the twelve rounds were Rodriguez and Gaballo separated by more than three landed punches. Агульны, Gaballo (24-0, 20 КО) threw 148 more punches than Rodriguez (19-2, 12 КО), but still managed to connect on 16 fewer power punches. The punches of the 28-year-old Rodriguez seemed to be cleaner, as he wobbled the Filipino Gaballo on more than one occasion. Аднак, two of the judges favored Gaballo’s aggression over Rodriguez’s ring generalship.

SHOWTIME’s unofficial scorer Steve Farhood scored the fight 118-110 in favor of Rodriguez and SHOWTIME analyst and former world champion Raul Marquez was dismayed by the judges’ decision.

“There’s no way Gaballo could have won that fight,” said Marquez. “In the worst-case scenario, you could have maybe given him three rounds. I gave him no rounds.”

“I am very happy and blessed to win this belt,” said the 24-year-old Gaballo. “I was always moving forward and controlling the pace, so I thought it was a close fight that either of us could have won.

“I’m waiting for my team to tell me what they have planned for me next. I’m going to keep training hard so I’m always ready for the opportunity when it comes.”

“It was a good fight, but he only won about two or three rounds,- сказаў Радрыгес. “There were two punches from me for every punch he landed. He knows he lost. Everyone knows we won. My team told me to go out and keep boxing him in the late rounds. We knew he needed a knockout in the twelfth round. That was his only chance to win.”

У са-галоўную падзею, Philadelphia’s undefeated welterweight sensation Ярон Эніс (26-0, 24 КО) saw his impressive 16-fight knockout streak come to a disappointing end after an accidental headbutt in the first round caused a brutal cut to the forehead of his opponent, Chris van Heerden (28-2-1, 12 КО). Watch the clash of heads ВОТ: https://twitter.com/ShowtimeBoxing/status/1340495823474442240

With only two minutes and thirty-nine seconds inside the ring to showcase his skills, Ennis was still able to flash glimpses of his championship potential as he landed 22 з 57 ўдары, 19 of them power shots as he appeared destined to stop the South African van Heerden and keep his KO streak alive before the clash of heads.

“Before the headbutt I had already cut him and I felt strong,” said a disappointed Ennis. “I knew he was ready to go. I feel like I’m getting better and better. Now I’ll just get back in the gym. As you could see from the first round, I was handling him easily. I feel like everyone is still sleeping on me, but I’m ready for anyone. Bring on the big names.”

У тэлеперадачы нож, bantamweight contender Гэры Расэл-Антоніа (18-0, 12 КО) kept his unblemished record intact with a technical decision victory over former world champion Хуан Карлас Паяно (21-5, 9 КО). After an accidental headbutt caused a bad cut to the left brow of Payano, referee David Fields stopped the fight after the sixth round at the advice of the ringside physician. The fight went to the scorecards, where Russell led on all three cards (58-56, 59-55, 59-55).

Да траўмы, Russell and Payano were engaged in a scrappy brawl that saw multiple exchanges of power punches. In the closing seconds of the sixth, and ultimately final round, Russell caught Payano with a counter-shot that hurt Payano. Russell landed 86 з 243 punches while Payano landed just 58 з 268 ўдары. Russell flashed excellent body work throughout the fight, out landing Payano 40 для 17 on body shots.

Лас-Вегасе (Лістапада 24, 2019) – WBC у суперцяжкай вазе свету Deontay “Бронзавы бамбавік” Уайлдэр continued his title reign with a one-punch knockout victory over Луіс “Кінг-Конг” Ортис in the seventh round of their rematch Saturday night that headlined a FOX Sports PBC Pay-Per-View from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.

Wilder made his 10й consecutive successful title defense, tying him with Joe Louis, Мухамед Алі, Майк Тайсан, Лары Холмс, Tommy Burns and Vitali and Wladimir Klitschko as the only heavyweight champions to achieve that feat.

У матчы-рэваншы іх эпасу 2018 fight that saw Wilder rally back from nearly being stopped to knock out Ortiz in round 10, the fight again saw both men hold the momentum of the fight at different times.

Ortiz controlled much of the action of the fight as he sought to become the first Cuban heavyweight champion in history. Wilder was not very active in the early rounds, while Ortiz was able to effectively jab, move and throw overhand lefts to rack up rounds on the scorecard.

“With Ortiz, you can see why no other heavyweight wants to fight him,” сказаў Уайлдэр. “He’s very crafty, he moves strategically and his intellect is very high. I had to measure him in certain places.”

Much of Wilder’s attack throughout the first six rounds was centered on his jab and a sweeping left hook that didn’t seem to land cleanly until early in round seven. With the seventh round waning, Wilder used a feint and a straight right cross to put Ortiz down, the first time he had been hurt at all in the fight.

“I had to go in and out and finally I found my measurement,” сказаў Уайлдэр. “I saw the shot and I took it. My intellect is very high in the ring and no one gives me credit for me. I think I buzzed him with a left hook earlier in the round and I took it from there.”

While Ortiz was able to get to his feet, referee Kenny Bayless waived off the bout at 2:51 у сёмым раундзе. Ortiz led on all three scorecards, by margins of 58-56 і 59-55 двойчы. Па Compubox, Ortiz out landed Wilder 35 для 34, з 28 для 17 advantage in power punches.

“гэта бокс,” сказаў Ортиз. “I said that one of us was going to get knocked out and it wasn’t going to go 12 раўндаў. I was clear headed when I hit the canvas. When I heard the referee say seven I was trying to get up, but I guess the count went a little quicker than I thought.

“This was a great fight and I thought I was clearly winning,” continued Ortiz. “I got caught with a big shot and I have to give Deontay Wilder a lot of credit. I knew my movement was giving him problems. I landed some big shots and I thought I had him hurt. I thought I was up by the count and could have continued.”

In the ring following the fight, Ortiz asserted that he will continue his quest for a heavyweight championship.

“Deontay showed great will and I’m not ashamed with my performance,” сказаў Ортиз. “I know I can beat anyone in the heavyweight division. My career is not over. I’m going to work my way back into a big fight.”

Пасля бою, Wilder told FOX Sports’ Heidi Androl that his goal is to unify the heavyweight division and become undisputed champion.

“Наступны, we have Tyson Fury in the rematch,” said Wilder.” It’s scheduled for February, so we’ll see. Затым, I want unification. I want one champion, one face and one heavyweight champion – Deontay Уайлдэр. The heavyweight division is too small, there should be one champion and it’s Deontay Wilder.”

У са-галоўную падзею, Леў “Землятрус” Санта-Крус (37-1-1, 19 КО) became a four-division world champion by capturing the WBA Super Featherweight with a unanimous decision over Мігель Флорэс (24-3, 12 КО).

“Winning this title means the world to me,” сказаў Санта-Крус. “This is all for the fans who support me. I didn’t feel myself today and didn’t perform the way I wanted to. I’m going to get back in the gym and get a big fight in 2020.”

The action began to heat up in round three, as Santa Cruz began to find a home for his straight right hand that would help him control much of the remainder of the fight. Flores adjusted and used more movement to try to counteract Santa Cruz’s aggression and also focused on countering those right hands with body shots.

“I’m glad I got the victory,” сказаў Санта-Крус. “Miguel is a good fighter, he gave me a tough fight and he proved he’s not a pushover. We put on a great battle.”

“It was a good fight and I showed I belong at this level,” said Flores. “I just went 12 rounds with Leo Santa Cruz. It’s not an accomplishment in itself but I slowed down his pace. Like I said before, it’s not only about throwing punches, but it’s about ring IQ and I showed I have it.”

Despite Flores’ tactics, Santa Cruz was able to stay in control and frustrate his opponent. Flores was deducted a point by referee Tony Weeks in round eight due to excessive holding during the many exchanges.

Santa Cruz held the edge in punches landed at 253 для 222, while Flores threw more punches than Santa Cruz by a tally of 1024 для 907.

“It was a close fight and I didn’t think he was landing too much,” said Flores. “He was busy but he wasn’t landing too many shots. I landed cleaner harder shots but he was just busier.”

Flores continued to try to rough up Santa Cruz and accidentally hit him with a headbutt in the ninth round that opened up a cut over Santa Cruz’s left eye. The four-division champion was able to weather that cut and finished strong on his way to a unanimous decision by scores of 115-112 і 117-110 двойчы. Watch highlights ВОТ.

“I want to stay at 130,” сказаў Санта-Крус. “We want the big fights in 2020. I want Gervonta Davis or Gary Russell Jr. I want to show the world I’m not scared of anybody.”

The pay-per-view also featured WBA Super Bantamweight Champion Брэндон “The Heartbreaker” Фігероа (20-0-1, 15 КО) retaining his title with a split draw against former champion Ліпеня Ceja (32-4-1, 28 КО) пасля 12 rounds of action.

“I think I did win the fight,” Саід Фігероа. “He put on a lot of pressure, but I fought better in the early rounds and I finished strong.”

Figueroa started the fight in control, closing down the distance early and using his activity and combinations to take early control of the action. Ceja’s strategy early was to counter his charging opponent, but he soon picked up the aggression to not allow Figueroa’s offensive momentum to grow.

In the middle rounds, Ceja began taking control, landing the more powerful punches while Figueroa continued to come forward, but was not able to land anything that slowed Ceja’s offense. Watch highlights ВОТ.

Figueroa was able to weather the storms in the middle rounds and make it to the late rounds where he again picked up the activity and body attack. He was able to bust Ceja’s lip throughout the action, causing it to swell and bleed.

The punch output was impressive from both fighters, with their 784 combined punches landed good for the fourth most in super bantamweight history, while their 2,811 punches thrown were the second highest, according to CompuBox. Figueroa earned a narrow 411 для 373 advantage in punches landed.

Пасля 12 раўндаў, суддзі’ Вынікі былі 115-113 for Figueroa, 116-112 for Ceja and 114-114, which resulted in the split draw decision.

“This fight is for all of you fans who came here to see me,” said Ceja. “He was a man about it and he gave me the fight. I think I won, but I respect the judges’ рашэнне. I’ll definitely run it back in a rematch.”

Ceja was not able to win the title after failing to make the 122-pound limit at Friday’s weigh-in.

“I basically fought a person in a weight class above mine tonight,” Саід Фігероа. “I’m pretty sure if he weighed 122, it wouldn’t even be a close fight. We have to run the rematch back but he better make the weight.”

The pay-per-view opener saw Mexico’s Eduardo Ramirez (23-2-3, 10 КО) deliver an impressive fourth-round TKO victory over previously unbeaten Leduan Бартелеми (15-1-1, 7 КО) in their featherweight rematch. Watch the highlightВОТ

“I said before the fight, I wasn’t going to let it go to the judges,” said Ramirez. “The first fight wasn’t a draw. I worked very hard for this and it turned out how I wanted today. I felt his punching power. Ён добры баец. I came here to fight. Viva Mexico.”

The fight began tactically, with Barthelemy looking to use his reach advantage to work off of his jab, while Ramirez sought to work inside and deliver power punches. У трох круглых, Ramirez began to break through Barthelemy’s defense with a series of hooks late in the round.

Ramirez continued to come forward in round four, pressing Barthelemy and finding additional cracks in his defense. Late in the round, Ramirez broke through with a glancing right hook that he followed up with a perfect straight left that put Barthelemy down.

While Barthelemy was able to get to his feet, referee Russell Mora waived off the bout at 2:59 чацвёртага тура. Ramirez held a 73 для 52 advantage in punches landed, у тым ліку 27 in round three and 31 in round four.

“I’ve got no excuses,” Саід-Бартэльмі. “The better man won tonight. I had a great camp and I was feeling good. But when I got out there I wasn’t really feeling my best. I turned around to try to walk around and get my feet under me after the knockdown. I wasn’t trying to stop the fight or anything and I thought I could continue. Now I just have to live with it and come back.”

FOX Sports PBC Pay-Per-View Prelims on FS2 and FOX Deportes saw sensational 17-year-old prospect Vito Mielnicki малодшы. (3-0, 3 КО) deliver a stoppage of Marklin Bailey (6-6, 4 КО) 2:31 into the second round of their welterweight affair.

Леа Санта Крус

“I’m only focused on my fight because I know that Miguel Flores is going to bring everything he has to try to win that title. There are a lot of great champions in this division but I can’t think of anything past Flores.

“I’m expecting a classic Mexico vs. Mexico brawl. Flores is from Michoacan and the people from there have a lot of heart and they leave everything in the ring. I’ve seen him do it. He throws to the body really well. He has a good uppercut too. So I know it’s going to be a tough fight.

“We always work hard in the gym so that we can throw a lot of punches in the fight. We want to put the pressure on and give the fans a great fight and take home the win.

“I train hard no matter who the opponent is. That’s the only thing I know how to do. So I don’t think about any let downs, only about winning the fight in front of me. I think this is a great opportunity to introduce myself to the division.

“I’m going to go in there and fight hard for 12 rounds or as long as it lasts. I’m going to be smart and make sure I get the win. But we also always want to give the fans a great show from start to finish.

“I feel really good right now. I think I’m going to be strong at that weight and have extra power in the ring on fight night. I don’t spend as much time in camp worrying about cutting weight so everything else will be better because of that. I’m going to be ready for everything Miguel Flores can bring.

“I want to win another title for my legacy and so I can continue to give fans great fights. This is a great opportunity so I’m going to go ahead and make the most of it.

“It’s great to be on this card with such an exciting main event. You know that Deontay Wilder can knock anyone out at any minute. The heavyweight division is really exciting right now and I know Wilder and Luis Ortiz are going to give everyone something to remember. I want to make an exciting fight too and steal the show. It’ll be hard to do, but I’m going to go out there and try to do it.”

The 22-year-old Figueroa (20-0, 15 КО) will look to make the first defense of his super bantamweight championship in his fourth fight of 2019. He knocked out Moises Flores in January on FS1 and won an interim super bantamweight title in April on FOX by stopping Yonfrez Parejo. Representing Weslaco, Тэхас, Брэндон, the younger brother of former world champion Omar, has a seven-fight knockout streak that he brings into the ring on November 23, having most recently stopped Javier Nicolas Chacon with an exciting fourth-round knockout in an FS1 main event in August. He was subsequently elevated to full champion by the WBA.

“This is probably going to be the biggest test of my career in the first defense of my title against a solid fighter like Ceja,” Саід Фігероа. “To be fighting on pay-per-view of the Wilder-Ortiz II undercard at MGM Grand is a dream come true. I’ve been working towards this moment my whole life. I attended Pacquiao vs. Thurman in July and the crowd was electric that night. I told myself while watching that fight ringside that I couldn’t wait to fight at MGM on a similar card, and now look at where we are. Ceja might have lost against Rigondeaux, but he put on a great fight and I know he’s going to come forward and brawl with me on November 23.”

Fighting out of Tlalnepantla, Мексіка, Брыво (32-4, 28 КО) will look to rebound from a loss to Guillermo Rigondeaux on FOX in June, when he was stopped in round eight while leading on all three judges’ сістэмы паказчыкаў. The 26-year-old knocked out Hugo Ruiz in 2015 to win an interim title before eventually being elevated to the full champion. While he lost the rematch to Ruiz, Ceja put together wins in two of his next three fights heading into the Rigondeaux bout.

“This is a great opportunity and I plan to win the world title again on November 23,” said Ceja. “I know what it takes to win and I will have the best training of my career for this fight. I hope Brandon Figueroa is prepared for fireworks. This title is coming back to Mexico for my country, my pride and my people.”

нэры (30-0, 24 КО) is a power puncher who has stopped his last 11 праціўнікі і 15 з яго апошніх 16. The 24-year-old southpaw from Tijuana, Mexico will be making his third appearance on a FOX Sports PBC Pay-Per-View this year. He scored a dominant stoppage victory over McJoe Arroyo on the March event in Arlington, Texas and returned on the July 20 show to stop former champion Juan Carlos Payano. He scored a TKO victory over Shinsuke Yamanaka to win the bantamweight world title in 2018.

“I’m excited for another opportunity to perform on the biggest stage and show that I’m the best bantamweight in the world,” said Nery. “Rodríguez is a tough competitor and he will help bring out my best on November 23. Mexico and Puerto Rico have a storied rivalry in this sport and I intend to make my mark in history with a spectacular win.”

The 27-year-old Rodríguez (19-1, 12 КО) will also look to put himself back in position to reclaim a 118-pound belt with a statement win on November 23. Fighting out of Vega Baja, Пуэрта-Рыка, Rodríguez won the IBF Bantamweight World Title with a unanimous decision victory over Paul Butler in 2018 and defended it successfully against then-unbeaten Jason Moloney. He most recently was stopped by unbeaten champion Naoya Inoue in their May title bout.

“Switching opponents is no problem for me since we always train for different fighting styles,” said Rodríguez, who had previously been scheduled to face former champion Rau’shee Warren before Warren withdrew due to injury. “My Puerto Rican and Mexican people want to see a great fight and that’s what they will have on November 23. I know what Nery brings to the table and I’m ready for that. We are confident in victory and that in 2020 I will be crowned world champion again.”
