“This fight is do or die,” Lopez said. “In the situation I am in now, this could make or break my career. Everything is really good and I’m happy to be back with Carlos Hernandez. Once I got back with him, a lot of what we worked on before is coming back. The sport is repetitive, and I have been sparring with aggressive guys.”

 

 

 

In Khegai (11-0-1, 8 Kos), Lopez is facing a tough and hard-nosed fighter from Ukraine. Lopez has done extensive scouting on his adversary, who will be making his American debut.

‘BLUE COLLAR’ DEZURN NOT FAZED BY PRE-FIGHT HYPE, READY TO GO TO WORK AGAINST JOSH GREER ON SHOBOX: THE NEW GENERATION ON FRIDAY, MAIO 11

Leave a comment

Maryland native Glenn Dezurn says it really doesn’t matter what his normally talkative opponent, Chicago’s Josh “Don’t Blink” Greer (16-1-1, 8 Kos) says or does before they meet in their 10-round super-bantamweight showdown Friday, Maio 11 directo na canle Showtime.

 

 

 

When you’re where he’s from and seen what he’s seen, inside the ring and out, an opponent who likes to talk doesn’t faze you. De ningún xeito.

 

 

The pair will meet in the co-featured bout of a ShoBox: A Nova Xeración quadrupleheader (10 p.m. ET / ES) a partir de 2300 Área en Filadelfia.

 

Os ingresos para o evento, which is promoted by Greg Cohen Promotions, Hard Hitting Promotions & Devin Haney Promotions, custa $125 para VIP, $70 para arena e $50 for general admission and are available at the 2300 Arena Box office or online at www.HardHittingPromotions.com.

 

 

 

Dezurn (9-1-1, 6 Kos), que tiña 94 amateur fights before turning professional five years ago, says opponent Greer, known for pre-fight hype including a pillow emblazoned with “Night Night,” is only hurting himself with the trash talk.

 

 

 

“The pressure isn’t on me,” he explained. “Where I come from, if you talk it, make sure you can walk it. The pressure is on him to back up whatever he says. It doesn’t bother me. I’m more of a doer than a talker. I only speak when I need to.”

 

 

 

Describing himself as a “blue-collar” fighter, the humble Dezurn won’t make a pre-fight prediction heading into battle, but will only say that he and trainer Barry Hunter are treating this fight no differently.

 

 

 

“Nothing is written in stone in boxing and there is no guarantee of winning against any fighter. You put in the work and believe in yourself. Fights are won in the gym with hard work. I will win because of my personality and my work ethic. I come to do my job and put my life on the line to entertain. My game plan in every fight is always the same: I just make adjustments in the ring as the fight goes on and react to whatever he is doing. I have a high ring IQ and I can adjust to anything.”

 

 

 

The 30-year-old says he’s set one goal in boxing and is enjoying his journey to reach it.

 

 

 

“I want to win a world championship. I set that goal for myself and once I achieve that, I can go on to my other goals in other areas of life. I’m earning my way to the championship the hard way against good fighters. That’s what I want. I’m living my dreams right now. And I will get there one day.”

 

 

 

“You will not meet a more humble, more down-to-earth fighter than Glenn Dezurn,” said his promoter, Greg Cohen. “He and his wife, Franchon, are very nice people who work hard to get they are. Glenn isn’t about flash. He’s about doing everything you have to do to be successful and he will get wherever he wants to be in life because of that.”

 

 

 

In the 10-round main event on SHOWTIME, Louisiana’s Mason Menard (33-2, 24 Kos) takes on undefeated Devin “The Dream” Haney (18-0, 12 Kos) of Las Vegas for the USBA Lightweight Championship. Noutra acción televisada, light heavyweight Alvin Varmall Jr. (15-0-1, 12 Kos) takes on Charles Foster (15-0, 8 Kos) longo de oito roldas; and in the opening bout, super bantamweight Arnold Khegai (11-0-1, 8 Kos) will face Adam Lopez (16-2-2, 8 Kos) nun ataque de oito rolda.

I’ve had surgery on it, and rehabbed it, and now I’m ready to return to the world stage. I’m in with a good, slick boxer, but my trainers have a game plan and we have been working on a few things that he does, just to be prepared for what’s to come against him. I’ll be ready.”

 

 

 

Menard says the hardest part of preparing to face one of boxing’s most talked-about prospects on national television is the loneliness of missing his two beloved daughters, Demi (8 anos) and newborn Amelia.

 

 

 

“I get homesick. I miss my babies back home, but it’ll all be worth it,"Dixo. “It’s my job and I’m going to do it.”

Here is what the press conference participants had to say Wednesday from the Dallas Cowboys Headquarters Atrium Interview Room at the Star:

 

Errol Spence JR.

 

 

 

“Esta é unha grande oportunidade para min. This has been a lifelong dream of mine. I can’t wait to fight in front of my hometown fans that have been rooting for me since the amateurs. It’s great to bring this event to Ford Center. I’m happy to defend my title against a great contender like Ocampo and I hope everyone comes out and supports their champion.

 

 

 

“I don’t think there’s any extra pressure fighting in my hometown. It’s just added motivation. Real pressure was fighting against 30,000 fans in the champion’s hometown for my first title against Kell Brook. This is me fighting in front of people who love me and who have seen me grow up as a boxer. I can’t wait to put on a show for them.

 

 

 

“Everybody poses a challenge in the ring. Ocampo is tough. He’s young and this is something he’s been fighting for his whole life. Sei que está chegando a loitar. Mexican fighters have a great tradition. They come to fight and they don’t back down. I know he’s going to give it his all and that gets me motivated.

 

 

 

“My motto is ‘Man Down’ and I have to live up to it. I don’t go in looking for the knockout, but I let it happen naturally. I let it come to me and we’re definitely going to let it happen on fight night.

 

 

 

“I feel like I’ve definitely earned this hometown fight. To go to another country and fight a champion in his hometown, and to win the belt, I think I deserve to defend my belt in front of my fans.

 

 

 

“It’s going to be a great feeling being at this venue on fight night. When I was a kid, I thought I was going to be playing for the Cowboys. So this is just going to be a wonderful opportunity. I’ve already talked to a lot of Cowboys players who are excited to come see me fight.

 

 

 

“I do believe I’m the best welterweight in boxing right now. I’ve been trying to prove it for a long time. I’m never looking past anyone, but I’d love to fight Danny Garcia, Shawn Porter and when he’s back, Keith Thurman. I’m ready to fight the best in the division and prove I reign supreme over all of them.”

 

CARLOS OCAMPO

 

 

 

“I know that this is a great opportunity to be fighting here in Spence’s hometown. That’s a plus for me and it motivates me. I’m going to be ready to fight for 12 rounds.

 

 

 

“It’s supposed to be tough with the crowd against me and I know I’m the underdog, but my mind is only on the fight. I’m just fighting one man, not a whole crowd. I know that I have what it takes.

 

 

 

“Spence is a very smart and tough fighter, but he doesn’t scare me. I’ve been working for this for too long and I will be 100 percent ready to win.

 

 

 

“I’ve had a very tough preparation and a very long camp. We’ve been sparring southpaws to prepare and so far everything has been smooth.

 

 

 

“Being here I am even more excited and more motivated to push hard these last weeks of training camp and come into this fight at my absolute best.

 

 

 

“I have been the underdog before and I’m prepared to once again overcome that. I’m not worried about what anybody else thinks of me or this fight. My mind is only on winning and being prepared to do whatever I have to.

 

 

 

“He can talk about knocking me out all he wants but I’m here too and I’m ready to knock him out on June 16.”

 

Derrick James, Formador de Spence

 

 

 

“Being at home, this fight is going to be about Errol keeping his focus and staying task. He’s always been able to do that. He’s motivated and driven. He’s the guy that you have to drag away from the gym.

 

 

 

“I never looked ahead to moments like this with Errol, from the beginning we just grinded away day by day. I was focused on enhancing his skillset and that’s what we’re still doing to this day.

 

 

 

“I’m able to keep my feelings bottled up until after a fight, because being at home there can be a lot of distractions. But of course, this event being here in Dallas is phenomenal. I’m most excited that my two daughters will be able to come to the fight.

 

 

 

“Errol has been training extremely hard like he always does. On the first day of sparring he did 15 con roldas [WBC 154-pound champion] Jermell Charlo and [unbeaten light heavyweight] Adrian Taylor.

 

 

 

“The two of us just have to stay focused and everything comes naturally. It’s going to be a great show for this city and a great night for Errol.”

 

STEPHEN Espinoza, Presidente, Sports and Event Programming, Showtime Networks, Inc.

 

 

 

“SHOWTIME is the home of the biggest fights and brightest stars in boxing, so we are particularly thrilled to be here at the home of the best professional franchise in sports, the Dallas Cowboys. We’re proud to be bringing the first boxing event ever inside of the Ford Center and we can’t wait to show off these facilities on SHOWTIME in June.

 

 

 

“This is the first world title fight in Dallas in quite some time and I can’t think of anyone better to bring that here with than Errol Spence Jr. It’s fitting that the NFL Draft was here last week, because I think that if boxing had a draft, there’s a good argument Errol Spence Jr. would be the number one pick. He’s top pound-for-pound champion, he’s a popular draw and he’s in boxing’s most talent-rich division. He has the ‘Trainer of the Year’ in his corner and has won 10 straight fights by knockout, from contender to champion. That is the sign of a truly great fighter.

 

 

 

“The great thing about boxing and for Carlos Ocampo, is that none of those accolades matter on June 16. Rankings, opinions and belts don’t matter. It’s just two guys in a ring and only one man will win. He’s spent his whole life working for this opportunity and I believe that will make this an exciting event.

 

 

 

“As a Texas-native, I know that Dallas is a football town, it’s a good town for all sports but at its heart, Dallas is a football town. But I have great confidence that on June 16, Dallas will be a great boxing town as well.”

 

TOM BROWN, Presidente da TGB Promocións

 

 

 

 

“With IBF Welterweight World Champion Errol Spence Jr. making his homecoming debut at this great venue, the Headquarters of the Dallas Cowboys, I know that this is going to be a hot ticket and one you’ll want to purchase right way.

 

 

 

“A lot of hard work went into getting this event together at this great venue and we’re thrilled to be working with the team here at Ford Center to bring it to the fight fans of this city.

 

 

 

“Errol Spence is one of most talked about fighters in the sport. Many consider him the best welterweight and perhaps the best fighter in the world. He’s also made it known that he’s willing to prove that and fight the best in the division. But he can’t afford to look past this young undefeated challenger from Mexico, in Carlos Ocampo. He’s fought his whole life for this opportunity and is here to make the most of it. It’s going to be a great night and a great homecoming for Errol Spence Jr. on June 16.”

 

STEPHEN JONES, Chief Operating Officer of the Dallas Cowboys

 

 

 

“These are two really special young men on this stage and this is the kind of event that we had in mind when we opened The Star. To be able to have great athletes like these as part of unique events at The Star is something we’re very excited about.

 

 

 

“We like to create versatility for this venue and we want to bring all types of sporting events here. This doesn’t happen without the city of Frisco and the Frisco independent school district. We’re also honored to partner with TGB Promotions and Premier Boxing Champions for this groundbreaking announcement.

 

 

 

“It’s known how energetic the sport of boxing is, but to be able to host Errol Spence Jr. and have him represent our city will be an unforgettable experience for all. Carlos Ocampo is a quality opponent who is also unbeaten. I admire both of you men and I look forward to watching you on June 16.”

It will be the first boxing event inside Ford Center and Spence’s first hometown fight as world champion.

 

 

 

Spence, who will attempt to make the second defense of the world title he won last May from Kell Brook, combines explosive power with sublime boxing skill. In his last four fights, Spence has begun to assert himself as the best boxer in the deep and talented 147-pound weight division. Hoxe, Spence is rated in the top-10 on boxing’s coveted pound-for-pound list. Ocampo, who had a highly rated amateur career in Mexico, is also undefeated but will be facing his toughest challenge to date as a professional in his first world title fight.

“Errol Spence, JR. has emerged as one of the most exciting champions in the sport today with a combination of skills that he has crafted into a fan-friendly style,” said Tom Brown, Presidente da TGB Promocións. “This is an opportunity for Errol to defend his title before the fans in his hometown at Ford Center at The Star and to continue to demonstrate why he is the top man in the 147-pound division. Carlos Ocampo, a young hungry contender, will certainly bring his A-game and that will bring out the best in Errol. It promises to be an entertaining show for boxing fans.”

 

 

 

“SHOWTIME has become home to the biggest stars in boxing and Errol Spence is one of its brightest,” dixo Stephen Espinoza, Presidente, Sports and Event Programming for SHOWTIME. “Spence made an emphatic statement one year ago when he traveled to Sheffield, England to wrest the title from the champion on his home turf. Agora, a young and talented Carlos Ocampo has an opportunity to do the same. We are proud to team up with the Dallas Cowboys, Ford Center, TGB Promotions and Premier Boxing Champions to deliver yet another of boxing’s must-see, marquee events.”

 

 

 

“It’s known how energetic and exciting the sport of boxing is, but to be able to host IBF World Champion Errol Spence Jr. here at The Star to represent our city, and his home town, will be an unforgettable experience for all,” said Dallas Cowboys Chief Operating Officer Stephen Jones.

 

 

 

Spence (23-0, 20 Kos) returned home with the welterweight title last May after defeating champion Kell Brook in Brook’s hometown of Sheffield, Inglaterra. The 28-year-old southpaw from Desoto, Texas made his first defense against former two-division champion Lamont Peterson, stopping him via seventh round technical knockout on Jan. 20 en Brooklyn.

 

 

 

A 2012 U.S. Olympian at the London Games, Spence has knocked out 10 straight opponents to climb the ranks of the division. In the wake of Floyd Mayweather’s retirement from boxing, four of the top-five ranked welterweights-Danny Garcia of Philadelphia, Shawn Porter of Las Vegas, Keith Thurman of Clearwater, Fla., and Spence-are all vying for the top spot in one of history’s most popular weight classes.

 

 

 

“I’m honored to be fighting in Dallas before my hometown fans and the people who have supported me from the beginning,” said Spence, who last fought in Dallas in 2015, a knockout victory over Alejandro Barrera. “This is something I’ve been wanting to do for a while now. It’s going to be great to fight at The Star, and because I’m a big Dallas Cowboys fan, I’m looking forward to fighting on the campus of Dallas Cowboys World Headquarters.

 

 

 

“I believe that I’m the number one fighter in the welterweight division and I’ll step into the ring on June 16 with that feeling. I’m going to draw from the energy of my fans. I’ve studied some of Ocampo and I can tell he likes to box but he’s willing to get into a fight. I know how he feels going into someone else’s hometown for his first shot at the title. This is his big opportunity and it’s going to make this a great event.”

 

 

 

The 22-year-old Ocampo (22-0, 13 Kos) will be taking a major step forward in his career with this mandatory title challenge against Spence. Ocampo, de Ensenada, Baja California, Mexico will be making his U.S. debut and fighting professionally outside of Mexico for the first time. Ocampo is a two-time silver medalist at the Mexican Olympiad, an amateur national championship tournament. His holds significant professional victories over former world title challengers Jorge Paez, JR. and Charlie Navarro while he most recently scored a seventh round stoppage of Dario Ferman in November.

 

 

 

“I’m training very hard for my fight against Errol Spence Jr.,” said Ocampo. “This is the opportunity that I’ve worked my whole life to get and I’m coming to take Spence’s belt on June 16. I will give the fans a very exciting fight and show once again what Mexican fighters are made of.”

Na súa primeira defensa desde destronando Kell Brook na canle Showtime en maio pasado, Spence (23-0, 20 Kos) fóra casetonado nun Peterson difícil (35-4-1, 17 Kos) do principio ao final, presentando unha gran variedade de habilidades, velocidade e poder. A loita foi interrompida antes do inicio da oitava rolda tras o adestrador de Peterson, Barry Hunter, pediu a paralización.

 

 

 

A loita vai fóra semellante á forma como os dous loitadores previsto, a partir dun caso táctico cauteloso antes de que se converteu nunha loita agresiva nas roldas intermediarias. Dous minutos rodada cinco, Spence utilizado un gancho de esquerda empolando para enviar Peterson para a pantalla (Prema AQUIpara destaque).

O 2012 U.S. fóra Olympian desembarcou Peterson 161-45, durante a conexión en 49 por cento dos seus golpes de enerxía só 31 por cento a Peterson.

 

 

 

Tras a loita Spence falou ao reporteiro Showtime Sports Jim Gray e foi rápido para dar crédito ao seu adversario. "Quero agradecer Lamont,"Dixo. "Unha morea de caras rexeitou a loita e tomou isto como un verdadeiro guerreiro e felicito o por iso. He’s a tough fighter. He’s willing to die in there.” Click AQUI para ver o destaque entrevista.

 

 

 

A pesar de gañar a vitoria ao mando de moda, Spence aínda cre que ten espazo para mellorar. "Eu aínda pode mellorar moito na miña defensa,", Dixo o campión mundial invicto. "Eu só teño que manter perfeccionando as miñas habilidades e seguir progresando. Vai ver un mellor Errol Spence próxima vez que entrar no arena.

 

 

 

"Todo o mundo sabe que eu estiven esperando em'Some Time'Thurman,", Dixo Spence, mirando adiante para unha posible unificación partido con WBC e WBA Welterweight Campión do Mundo Keith Thurman. "Dende que eu era 15-0 I’ve been calling this guy out and he keeps making excuses. Imos busca-la en. Ten dous dos cintos e ambos temos grandes nomes. É unha loita fácil de facer e que quero. "

 

 

 

Peterson, que loitou bravamente contra o Spence máis novo, respectada a decisión do seu adestrador para deter a loita, "Se me pide para combater un millón de persoas, Vou. Se me pide para deixar. vou deixar. Eu nunca vou cuestionar a súa decisión. Sei que ten os meus mellores intereses no corazón. "

 

 

 

"Foi moi difícil, pero se sabe Lamont, vostede sabe que el non ía desistir,"Dixo o adestrador Barry Hunter. "Tiven que paralo. Ao final do día, este é o meu fillo aquí. Non hai nada máis valioso do que o seu benestar. Se se trata de el ou gañar, Eu pegalo. Eu me preocupo con el. "

“Eu non podería obter o KO, pero conseguimos a vitoria e iso é todo o que importa. Eu sabía que estaba indo a executar xa que sentía o meu poder. El só quería coller e prender toda a loita. "

 

 

 

Mirando cara o futuro, Pascua fixo as súas intencións claras, mentres el busca ataques unificación nun futuro próximo, "Eu quero loitar contra os campións e unificar eses cintos. Loitas como estes non están no meu plan de xogo. Estou preparado para Mikey García e Jorge Linares para asinar o contrato. "

 

 

 

A Fortuna descontento tamén falou para Gris, "O público sabe o que pasou aquí. Eles vaiaram porque saben que eu gañei esa loita.

 

 

 

"Se el é un home imos loitar de novo en 135 libras,", Dixo Fortuna, who failed to make weight on two attempts Venres, o que significaba que o cinto de Pascua non sería na liña. "En definitiva vou facer o peso. Non me dar tempo suficiente para adestrar. "

A presa de combinacións poderosas aterrou no Ntetu indefenso deixou o árbitro con pouca opción senón deixar a loita con 45 segundos restantes na rolda número un.

 

 

 

“Traballamos por esta vitoria. Andou nun tiro seguro e eu fíxenlle pagar,", Dixo Browne. "A esquerda overhand o colleu e ese foi o comezo do fin para el. Eu sabía que estaba ferido.

 

 

 

“Necesito un tiro título mundial. Estou preparado para asumir calquera dos campións. Non teño ningunha preferencias. Estou contento por unirse outro gran actuación aquí no Barclays Center. Vou continuar a mellorar ata que realmente facer-se o Sr. Barclays Center ".
