Just The Third Unification Between Undefeated Welterweights In Boxing History
SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING on CBS, مقدمة من Premier Boxing Champions, Live on CBS From Barclays Center In Brooklyn
نيويورك (فبراير. 15, 2017) – Sugar Ray Leonard vs. تومي Hearns. فيليكس ترينيداد مقابل. أوسكار دي لا هويا. فلويد مايويذر مباراة. الرماية.
That is the elite company welterweight champions Danny Garcia and Keith Thurman will join when they meet in just the 10عشرunification in division history on السبت, مارس 4 on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING on CBS, مقدمة من Premier Boxing Champions, من مركز باركليز, منزل BROOKLYN الملاكمة ™, live on CBS from 9-11 عصرا. و/6-8 عصرا. PT.
غارسيا, the WBC titleholder, and Thurman, the WBA champion, will unify the exact same titles that Leonard (WBC) وهيرنز (رابطة الملاكمة العالمية) unified in their 1981 المعركة من السنة.
And while Hearns was undefeated and Leonard entered with one loss, غارسيا (33-0, 19 كوس) and Thurman (27-0, 22 كوس) will meet in just the third unification between مهزوم welterweights in boxing history, ال أولا since Trinidad vs. De La Hoya in 1999, a bout billed as “The Fight of the Millennium.”
غارسيا مقابل. Thurman will be broadcast in Primetime on CBS, the first unification on network television in any division in over two decades (ملاحظة: تيري نوريس مقابل. Paul Vaden at 154-pounds on Dec. 16, 1995 على FOX). It’s also just the second primetime boxing presentation on the CBS Television Network in nearly 40 سنوات.
While Danny Garcia and Keith Thurman are joining a who’s who of legendary 147-pounders, their showdown also presents current implications in boxing’s glamour division. With the retirement of pound-for-pound kingpin Floyd Mayweather, Garcia and Thurman, both just 28 سنة, meet with a chance to become the new face of the stacked 147-pound division, and perhaps earn a spot on the mythical pound-for-pound list.
أكثر من 80 percent of the total punches landed by Garcia are power shots, putting his high-octane power punch output nearly 10 percent higher than the welterweight average.
Keith Thurman ranks No. 4 amongst all current boxers in percentage of power punches landed, connecting at 48.2 percent according to Compubox. That’s more than 10 percent better than the welterweight average.
Both fighters are young, hungry and undefeated. Their bout on مارس 4 is the quintessential career-defining fight. It is a chance for both to add to their growing legacy and potentially, في النهاية, be forever linked with every boxing great in the coveted International Boxing Hall of Fame.

لوس انجليس (ديسمبر. 10, 2016) - أبنير ماريس (30-2-1, 15 كوس) scored an impressive, upset 12-round split decision over defending champion يسوع كويلار (28-2, 21 كوس) to capture the WBA Featherweight World Championship and become a four-time boxing titlist السبت in the main event of a SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING doubleheader.
In the co-feature from Galen Center on the campus of USC in Los Angeles, Jermall تشارلو (25-0, 19 كوس) retained his IBF Junior Middleweight World title with an emphatic fifth-round knockout over previously unbeaten, top-ranked جوليان "J-روك" ويليامز (22-1-1, 14 كوس). (لقطات فيديو: http://s.sho.com/2hqXDr8)
Earlier in the day on SHOWTIME, unbeaten IBF Heavyweight World Champion أنتوني جوشوا (18-0, 18 كوس) خرج اريك مولينا (25-4, 19 كوس), من يسلاكو, تكساس, in the third round in Manchester, انجلترا. (لقطات فيديو: http://s.sho.com/2hqHTo8)
الأمهات, من هنتنغتون بيتش, كاليفورنيا., by way of Guadalajara, المكسيك, was victorious by the scores of 117-110, 116-111 و 112-115. Judge Kermit Bayless was the lone descender to score the hard-fought match for the Argentine. Mares scored the bout’s lone knockdown in the 11th round. كويلار, بوينس آيرس, had an 11-fight winning streak end. (لقطات فيديو: http://s.sho.com/2hbJayp)
الأمهات, making his first start في 16 أشهر and first with renowned trainer روبرت غارسيا, executed a technically sound game plan and was the more accurate puncher than Cuellar, who was under the tutelage of Hall of Famer فريدي روتش لأول مرة في حياته المهنية.
“I feel so good, it’s been a long time. I’m champion, طفل,’’ said Mares, 31, a former WBC featherweight and super bantamweight world champion and IBF bantamweight world champion, who became Garcia’s 10عشر بطولة العالم. “We had the perfect game plan.
“I never doubted myself. I felt it in my heart. When I fought الأسد (سانتا كروز) I beat myself because I fought the wrong fight. I fought smart هذه الليلة. I thought it would be a unanimous decision, but at the end of the day I’m champion.’’
Cuellar is known as a devastating puncher, but he was unable to land his power shots or cut off the ring against Mares, who seemingly pocketed rounds with accuracy and a solid left hook. Mares floored Cuellar with a straight right in the opening minute of the 11th, sending Cuellar to the canvas for the third time of his career. The onslaught continued, with a resurgent Mares teeing off on Cuellar until he raised his hands following the final bell.
“They said he was a power puncher, they said he was going to knock me out, but I proved that I have some power, أيضا,’’ said Mares, who dropped a majority 12-round decision to Santa Cruz in his last fight on Aug. 29, 2015. “I want Leo, أريد (كارل) فرامبتون, I want anyone. أنا بطل. I’m not afraid of anyone.”
Cuellar stated his case for a rematch afterward.
“I thought the fight was pretty even until he threw me down, and that’s when he took control,"قال كويلار, who was making his third title defense. “He definitely had the boxing skills going today. I would have preferred a rough fight, but Mares had his skills today. اريد مباراة العودة. I gave him the opportunity and now I think it’s fair that he gives it to me.”
في حال شارك في الرئيسية, Charlo dropped Williams three times, once in the second and twice in the fifth. وليامز, who had not lost a round in 10 consecutive fights, went down for the first time in his career from a strong counter left-hand midway through the second round.
وليامز, who established his counter right early, performed well for the next two rounds in the first title fight between undefeated 154-pound champions since فلويد مايويذر dismantled Canelo ألفاريز في 2013.
But Charlo decked him again with a brutal right uppercut midway through the fifth round that sent Williams collapsing face-forward onto the canvas. Williams got up, but he was clearly in trouble. Charlo floored him seconds layer with a left hook, forcing referee Wayne Hedgepath to instantly halt the contest at 2:06.
Charlo was ahead with scores of 38-37 on the three scorecards entering the fifth round in a highly skilled matchup between two fighters in their prime.
Afterward a fracas broke out in the ring between the fighters and their cornermen after Charlo wouldn’t acknowledge Williams’ congratulatory hand shake. Williams immediately stormed from the ring. The fans booed Charlo loudly throughout his post-fight interview with SHOWTIME reporter Jim Gray.
“I did what I was supposed to do, أنا سعيد جدا بأدائي, I listened to my trainer,’’ said Charlo, the identical twin brother of WBC 154-pound titlist Jermell تشارلو. “I trained hard for this fight, I stayed in the gym the whole time.
“No matter what, people have to respect my accomplishments. He just wasn’t on my level. I told everyone what I was going to do since the fight was announced. I knew I was going to win; he was badly hurt after the knockdown.
“I just want to tell Julian Williams, أنا آسف. Leading up to this fight Julian talked, and I held it in. I did what I had to do to become the champion of the world and I deserve my respect. He disrespected me all the way up to the fight. I made the fight happen; I gave the fans what they wanted to see. I stayed at 154 جنيه, although I do want to move up to 160, just to fight someone the world said I couldn’t beat.
“I said I don’t want your congratulations; I want your apology. I don’t care what they say, لقد طردته. No matter what they say about me I’m going to continue to work hard. I did what my trainer told me to do, I stayed in there and bang the shot came home. I’m never disrespected this dude, never, until I knocked him out.
"نعم, اريد ان اتحد. I want to prove I’m the best junior middleweight in the world, none of them are on my level.”
Williams offered no excuses. “أنا فقط حصلت واقعة,’ he said. “I was fine after the second round and kept going. He just caught me. He wasn’t too big. He just caught me.
“I didn’t care about any of that [post-fight drama]. I just wanted to win.”
Charlo-Williams was the fourth 154-pound title fight on SHOWTIME in 2016.
In one off the fights streamed earlier السبت on FACEBOOK LIVE, سيرغي Lipinets (11-0, 9 كوس) خرج Lenny Zappavigna(35-3, 25 كوس) to become the mandatory challenger for the IBF Junior Welterweight World Title.
After flooring Zappavigna midway through the fourth, Lipinets finished off the Australian with an overhand right in the eighth in a closely contested and bloody affair.
"نعم, this was my toughest fight, it’s bloody and rugged but no problem for me,’’ Lipinets said. “This was an eliminator and now I want my next fight to be for the world championship. Julius Indogo has the IBF title and now I’m the mandatory.
“I’m very happy with my performance. We’ve worked on adjusting during fights and that worked very well for me هذه الليلة. I was hoping for the knockout but my trainer said to keep working and the stoppage will come.”
“I left it all in the ring,’’ Zappavigna said. “I fought my heart out and I came here to give it my best. Even though I’m disappointed with the loss, I am at peace with the result because I know I couldn’t have done anything else.
“I wish Sergey all the best in his world title fight.
“I know my fans are behind me and I’m bringing pride back to Australia. I know I was in control of the fight, but my Australian ‘white line fever’ kicked in and I tried to take his head off.”
In the opening bout on Facebook Live, talented undefeated middleweight إريكسون لوبين (17-0, 12 كوس) knocked out previously once-beaten خوان أوبالدو كابريرا (23-2, 15 كوس) في 2:09 الجولة الثانية.
“He was a little awkward in the first round,’’ Erickson said. “I set him up with my jab and I knew I hurt him in the second. That’s when I knew it was time for him to go.
“I think that fight definitely proves that I’m in the discussion as one of the top up and comers in the sport, but I don’t feel any pressure. I’m back in the gym في يوم الاثنين.
“I want to be undisputed champion. I want all of the belts. Give me the Charlos, جوليان وليامز, أيا منهم.
“I’ll take whoever is in front of me next, but those names and put them in bold letters and you know I’ll be front and center for that Charlo-Williams fight.”
The SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING doubleheader and SHOWTIME INTERNATIONAL telecast will re-air on Monday, ديسمبر. 12, 10 عصرا. ET / PT على شوتايم EXTREME. The fights were promoted by Ringstar Sports and TGB Promotions and sponsored by Corona.
