ERROL Spence JR.
“Această luptă înseamnă totul pentru mine. I still have a chip on my shoulder. I want to be the last man standing. I want to beat the top fighters in my division. Lamont is the one standing in front of me, so it’s fight time.
I think it’s going to turn into a war. A lot of people have thought this would be an easy fight for me. But if you follow Lamont Peterson, you know this will be tough. He’s always in great shape and has a lot of skills. IT might be a dog fight and that’s what I wanted. He’s the guy who wanted to fight and I said of course. It’s going to be a rugged fight. Later on in the fights, he always gets rough and stands toe-to-toe.
There might not be a lot of talking and bad blood between us, but you know that the two of us always give a great fight for the fans.
I had to wait for my title defense and then I had a lot of guys not answer the call for this fight. I have a belt and I still have to call these other guys out. Lamont Peterson answered the call like a real fighter.
In a perfect world I’d be unifying with Keith Thurman this year. I’m going to fight three times this year though. You don’t get time back. I’m ready to strike now.
I’m just excited to fight. Îmi place să lupt. I can’t wait to be in front of those bright lights in front of the fans. Brooklyn is a great place to fight and my family from the area can come see me live. I can’t wait to display my skills.
A true champion can’t fight everybody who calls them out, it’s still a business. But a true champion fights other champions, especially when they’re available. You can’t avoid questions and try to delay a fight. You fight the next champion that’s available, that’s what a true champion does.
LAMONT PETERSON
When I got into boxing, I had goals. First I wanted to be a National Champion, then a world champion as a professional, but the ultimate goal is to be in the Hall of Fame. With that being my goal, I wouldn’t put myself in that conversation yet. With wins over a guy like Errol Spence and the other top welterweights, I think I’m right there in it. That’s my goal and I’ll give it my all to get there.
If you left it to me I’d fight every month. That’s how much I love the sport. I know a victory would help me get in the ring even more often. Sometimes if you lose at the top level, other top guys don’t want to take a chance against you. I can fix all of that this weekend
I don’t worry about any negativity. My resume is written in the history books. All I can do is respect the opinion of others and work hard to get this win.
I’m excited and looking forward to the skill level that’s going to be displayed this weekend. It’s going to be a rough fight for sure. But I look forward to the technique and skill level. Defense, offense and transitioning between the two. That’s the part of boxing that I love.
Errol even taking the Kell Brook fight was impressive to me. Most guys in his position take their time leading up to the first title shot, but he ended up fighting someone in his prime in his country. To will himself to that win was very impressive.
When you get to the big stages and those big fights, you have to win more than you lose. I think if I can win some big fights these next few years my career will be in a good place.
ROBERT DE PAȘTE
I have no concerns fighting a southpaw. I made my last fight hard, but this time I’m going to use my reach, my feet and my speed to dominate.
I’m looking for a great performance. This is going to be the best Robert Easter the fans have ever seen. We prepared to dominate this fight.
Javier Fortuna is an accomplished fighter but I don’t know too much about him. I know what I came to do. I’m a world champion and everyone knows what I bring to the fight game. I won’t leave without my strap.
I’m ready to fight the best in this sport. I want to become the man at this weight and I know I have to beat the other champions to do that.
Boxing is all about showing you’re the best and fighting the best. I just want to fight these other champions in my weight class. I’m looking to stay healthy in 2018 and remain on top.
JAVIER FORTUNA
I have no excuses on Ianuarie 20. I hope he doesn’t either. I will be taking that title to the Dominican Republic for my fans. I’ve been dreaming about it and I will take it.
I have the style and the skills to beat Robert Easter. I know how to make sure his height does not affect me at all. Everyone will see it on fight night.
I’ve prepared myself very well. I have a plan to win every round. If he’s able to stand there, I’m going to break him down round by round.
I am fighting for more than just myself and that is why I’ll be successful. I am going to prove that I’m truly one of the top fighters in the sport.
Robert Easter is a fighter I respect, but I believe I can defeat anyone in front of me. If he takes me lightly, it will go even worse for him. I’ve been training hard to make sure I’m at my absolute best on fight night.
A win would be great for my country, my fans and my family. Winning this title is everything for me. That’s why I’m here and I will not be stopped.
DERRICK JAMES, Trainer Spence
I started training Errol about nine years ago but I never really knew just how special he was until about a year or so into our training. I thought Olympics were definitely possible, because I didn’t want to look too far ahead. Now that we’re here, I think he can beat any of the top guys. I want him to be undisputed welterweight champion just like he wants to be.
I never worry about comparing Errol to other guys in the sport. He’s a hard puncher who breaks ribs and breaks faces. The longer the fight goes, the more pain he inflicts. I’ve never seen anybody who punches that hard.
I think Lamont knew when he moved up to welterweight that this fight would be a possibility. It’s time for us to go to work because I know Lamont and Barry Hunter are working on a game plan. They have a great team and I know Lamont will be ready for what we bring.
BARRY HUNTER, Trainer Peterson
We stay in the gym all the time. We didn’t have to deal with the weight monster this camp. Weight issue can really derail a camp leading up to a fight of this magnitude. We didn’t have to deal with any of that.
There are several different things in Errol’s arsenal that I think we can exploit. Errol will make adjustments though, so I think strategy will be a key in this fight.
Lamont has always been a coach’s dream. He’s the type of athlete that you would love to coach. He does everything a coach asks of him. He will train until he passes out. All he wants is to work hard and compete.
LOU Dibella, Președintele Dibella Divertisment
This is a great night for boxing. The first January date of the year drums up a lot of excitement and we expect a great turnout sâmbăta noapte de la Barclays Center. It’s going to be a great crowd and an exciting night from top to bottom.
“Errol Spence Jr. is one of the best young fighters in the world testing himself against another great fighter in Lamont Peterson It’s the best fighting the best. Lamont Peterson is a guy with a tremendous resume. If anybody thinks Errol is going to take Lamont lightly, they’re mistaken and he would be too.
Both of these main event fighters are lucky to have trainers who are real teachers. They are old school and two of the best. Derrick James and Barry Hunter know the game inside and out.
Robert Easter is a beast, he’s got reach, power and boxing ability. He’s facing a guy in Javier Fortuna who is a confident former world champion. Javier has been talking a big game. He’s talking about knockouts. You want to see a guy come into a fight like this with that kind of confidence.
This year in boxing is starting out just like last year started, at Barclays Center with a great, even matchup like Badou Jack vs. James DeGale last year.
STEPHEN Espinoza, Executive Vice President & Director General, Showtime Sports
In terms of representing the sport, you don’t get any better than Errol Spence Jr. and Lamont Peterson. The professionalism of these guys is unmatched and they represent the best of the sport. I’m proud to have them on the network.
You can’t play boxing. You have to be dedicated and passionate. Those values are going to be reflected in the ring sâmbăta.
This is a special fight. These are the best in the sport. They’re both top 10 baieti. Errol Spence Jr. has grown up on SHOWTIME.
He made his pro debut on ShoBox and won his first world title on SHOWTIME. This is Lamont’s eighth appearance on SHOWTIME and he has one of the strongest resumes in the sport.
Robert Easter and Javier Fortuna is another matchup of top 10 baieti. What we’re doing here is special. This isn’t just another network doing boxing, this is the cream of the crop.
BRETT YORMARK, CEO of Brooklyn Sports & Divertisment
I’m really excited about Sâmbătă noapte. We’ve been very fortunate to host the first big event of the year. There’s an appetite to get back into the game and we’re happy to be hosting it.
I want to welcome back Errol and Lamont to Barclays Center. Both have been there before and we’re thrilled to have you back. We’re pleased that Robert has finally decided to take his show to Barclays Center and give the fans a performance. Last time Javier won at Barclays Center he won his world title and we’re happy to have him back.
We’re going to create something great here in Brooklyn and it continues sâmbăta night at Barclays Center.

Also in attendance at the workout was Peterson’s brother, once-beaten contender Anthony Peterson, who competes in undercard action on the Ianuarie 20 eveniment.
Here is what the workout participants had to say Thursday:
LAMONT PETERSON
“Mă simt minunat. I’m already close to weight. I’m happy and eating up to five times a day. I feel strong and I’m ready for this fight.
I have to look at this as really just another big fight. When you’re at the top, you try not to make too much of each fight. We know what’s at stake. I know that when I keep it simple, that’s when I perform best.
Right now my body feels better than ever. I’m comfortable with everything that’s gone on in camp and I think you can see it in my body.
I’ve always trained hard since the first day I came here as a child. That’s been instilled in me since a young age and it’s carried me throughout my career.
Everything I do is for D.C. I’m trying to get as much recognition for this area the best way I can. That’s what we all strive for in this gym. This is the biggest one that’s been on the schedule for a while and I’m ready to bring it home.
It gets easier and easier the more championship fights I’m in. I was in shape for all of them, but I definitely put more pressure on myself when I was young. I’ve improved each time and now I feel like I’m really at the perfect place in my career.
ANTHONY PETERSON
I have to make a statement. I never feel comfortable with a decision. I think that’s a good thing because I have to be special under the bright lights.
Everyone knows I like to go to the body. You know I’m going to make him work so you can look out for me to break my opponent down on the Ianuarie 20.
I’ve been sparring with a variety of experienced fighters over the last year and they’ve helped me out even while I haven’t had a fight. Ring rust is all mental. It’s up to you to put the work in.
I haven’t gotten the fights that I want, but I’ll always stick to my game and stick to my craft. I know if I persevere, things will work out for me.
I know that I love this sport. I know that eventually I will be a world champion. I believe in my future and I’m looking forward to big fights.
It’s inspiring to watch Lamont do his thing and succeed. He’s going to beat Errol Spence, even if people don’t believe it. I think he’s going to take care of business.
BARRY HUNTER, Trainer Peterson
It’s been a long grind in camp for these guys. When I think back on how long we’ve been on this journey, I’m very proud of them. They were 9 și 10 when they first came into the gym.
We don’t have the weight monster to deal with fighting at welterweight. Lamont is in a great place mentally and physically. I’m looking forward to an explosive fight.
When you look at the Spence-Brook fight, early on Brook had a lot of success. Down the stretch Errol imposed his will and broke Brook down. I know Errol well and I’ve coached him. He has a strong will. He’s not great in one area, but he’s good in a lot of areas. This is a different kind of guy he’s facing. Heart is something Lamont is nowhere near short on. I think this might start off tactical, and then turn into a war.
My job is to go in there with part of a plan, but it’s always about adjustments for us. Whatever Errol brings to the table, we’ll figure it out and put everything in motion.
This last week is a lot of game plan and mental preparation work. A lot of fighters don’t train the mind. You have to train the mind even more so than the body. We have to be ready for every scenario.
I think if Anthony goes in there and does his job there are a few vacant titles at 140-pounds and that’s a track for us. We want to get a strap around his waist and we’ll face anyone to get it.
“Lamont, along with Anthony, Gary Russell Jr., Jarrett Hurd and Gervonta Davis, have been holding down boxing in this area for a long time. It would be huge to bring this title home. There are a lot of young Lamont Petersons in this area who want to reach this level. It would be a beacon of light shining down and showing these people the way.

Iată ce Spence și antrenorul lui, Derrick James, a avut de spus Marți de la R&R Box Club din Dallas:
ERROL Spence JR.
“Orice om care a văzut înainte de a mă lupta știe că nu va fi o luptă plictisitoare. Chiar dacă este o singură față, Întotdeauna o să fie o acțiune ambalate. Ianuarie 20 va fi o luptă extraordinară și voi pune pe o mare performanță. Plănuiesc să domine.
“Apărarea titlul meu din Brooklyn va fi special. Am familie din New York, de asemenea, astfel că înseamnă foarte mult că voi fi în stare să-și apere la Barclays Center. New York este un oras de box, astfel încât acestea aprecia cu adevărat campioni și cunosc sportul.
“Sunt incantata sa fie lupta un tip ca Lamont Peterson. Nu lupt un nume nu-regulat luptător. El va aduce cele mai bune din mine pentru că este un adevărat luptător. Aceasta face ca întreaga experiență chiar mai bine.
“Spotul de top în acest sport este într-adevăr de luat acum și eu vin pentru ea. Nu-mi pasă cine trebuie să facă față sau în cazul în care, Voi fi ultimul om în picioare. De aceea, noi toți de acest sport. Sunt extrem de încrezător în mine.
“Lamont și am ambele au inimi mari și cred că toată lumea va putea vedea că în ring. Suntem amândoi luptători inteligente, astfel ar putea fi un sentiment înainte să plecăm. Dar mă aștept să fie un Dogfight.
“Această comunitate din Dallas este foarte important pentru mine. Când am fost
în creștere până aici nu au existat boxeri profesioniști de aici că am putea privi ca un model de rol. Odată ce au resursele necesare pentru a da înapoi, este important să o facă. Îmi place să fiu în sala de sport și de a ajuta într-adevăr băieți tineri și oferindu-le ceva să aspire.”
DERRICK JAMES, Trainer Spence
“Errol arată foarte bine în formare. El are un mare accent. El este orientat foarte detaliat și tastat pe a fi cea mai bună versiune de el însuși. Determinarea pe fața lui îmi permite să știu că el vrea să lase nici o piatră neîntoarsă și asigurați-vă că totul merge drumul său pe noapte lupta. Am câștigat lupta în sala de sport nu în ring.
“Errol trebuie să păstreze această mentalitate a intra în această luptă și dincolo, și el știe că. Câștigarea un titlu nu este ceea ce vrea. El vrea să fie campion necontestat categoriei semi-mijlocii. El este foarte orientat spre poartă și cred că va atinge acest obiectiv. El nu ia nici un răspuns. O să se împingă la limită și atinge scopurile.
“Lamont Peterson este foarte spiritual și inteligent în inelul. E un tip dur prea. El aduce ca tărie mentală de care aveți nevoie pentru a avea succes. Am să vină la această luptă 100 la sută și să se concentreze tot timpul. Dacă noi nu facem, am putea veni scurt.
“Trebuie să fiu cea mai bună versiune de mine prea. Încerc să obține o mai bună și mai bine fiecare luptă și în fiecare zi în sala de gimnastică. Știu că trebuie să fie pe partea de sus a tot ceea ce ar putea întâmpla. Barry Hunter este un dur, antrenor inteligent care aduce mult la masa. Lamont are o echipă mare. Este o plăcere și o onoare să le facă față în ring.”

Fiecare luptător luptă diferite, astfel încât să obțineți acolo, sa-l simt afară și să facă ajustări pe măsură ce merge de-a lungul. Nu sunt îngrijorat de el fiind stangaci. M-am confruntat cu o mulțime de stângaci în cariera mea și în amatori. Asta e nici o problema.
“Cred că ceea ce mă face să mă mai periculos boxer în această luptă are înălțimea pe care o fac și puterea stantare și viteza și mentalitatea precum. mentalitatea mea este că eu nu mă duc acolo să se joace în jurul cu el. Sunt gata să distrugă.
“Obiectivele mele pentru 2018 sunt de a capta mai multe titluri și pentru a obține crize de unificare.

JAVIER FORTUNA (33-1-1, 23 KO) – Fostul Campion Mondial Super Ușoară
“pregătirea mea pentru această luptă merge foarte bine. Am fost de lucru în Republica Dominicană, dar m-am întors la Boston pentru a termina formarea mea. Chiar acum suntem la 75% și de închidere de pe 100%. Eu voi fi complet pregătită atunci când este timpul pentru a lupta. pregătirea mea și strategia mea mi mai periculos tip face.
“Eu văd acest lucru ca nici o altă luptă pe care le-am avut înainte, pentru că fiecare adversar este diferit. Orice persoană are propria lor nișă la acest nivel, ceva care lucrează pentru ei. nisa lui este că el e înalt. El folosește în avantajul său. Dar nu e nimic care nu pot depăși. M-am luptat băieți înalți înainte.
“Prefer adversarii mei sa fie mai inalt. Se joacă în ce sunt în stare să fac. Nu am avut niciodată o problemă cu adversari mai inalti. Abner Cotto (5-10) este unul dintre băieți înalți pe care am luptat. M-am luptat în Chicago și a pus pe o mare performanță. (Fortuna a marcat un 5lea KO rundă împotriva Cotto)
“Scopul meu pentru 2018 este de a lupta împotriva tuturor top luptători de elită din clasa mea de greutate, și am încercat să devin menționat ca unul dintre cele mai bune din sport. Chiar vreau să câștige un alt titlu mondial într-o clasă de greutate diferită. Ar fi cel mai mare de până acum acest moment al carierei mele pentru a obține un alt titlu mondial.”
MARCUS BROWNE (20-0, 15 KO) – Top 10 clasat la 175 lbs. (WBC, WBO, WBA & IBF)
“Adversarul meu (francy Ntetu, 17-1, 4 KO) arata ca un durabil, tip dur. Eu văd această luptă fiind foarte interesant pentru fani atât timp cât durează. Am văzut un pic de bandă pe el. Știu că întotdeauna vine în forma tip-top, și am auzit că e consecvent în interpretarea sa în ring. I just know I’m going to have to be sharp on Jan. 20.
“Este întotdeauna o onoare să lupte aici, acasă și la Barclays Center. Este special pentru a putea efectua, în fața acestor fani și eu nu pot să aștept pentru a pune pe o performanță bună care duce la Spence vs. lupta Peterson.
“Această luptă mi-ar putea pune în poziția pe care trebuie să fiu în a lupta pentru un titlu mondial. Nu pot lipsi în nici un fel. Trebuie să iasă puternic cu o mare performanță de la început până la sfârșit și se lasă nici o îndoială acolo.
“Pentru 2018, Vreau să devin campion mondial. Sunt hotărât tomake se întâmple în acest an. That vision starts on Jan. 20 at Barclays Center against Francy Ntetu.
FRANCY NTETU (17-1, 4 KO) – David Luptat Benavidez la Barclays Center din iunie 2015
I know Marcus Browne is probably taking me lightly and thinks he will simply go through me. Sper că e cazul, pentru că va fi un șoc pentru el, fanii și echipa lui atunci când iau locul lui în linie pentru un titlu. Vreau să se confrunte cu Eleider Alvarez în orașul nostru natal de la Montreal după ce am obține acest câștig.
“lupta mea anterioară la Barclays Center împotriva actualului campion WBC David Benavidez a fost, evident, o decizie foarte proastă de arbitru pentru a opri lupta, mai ales atunci când am fost câștigarea etapei și Benavidez a fost încetinirea. Am fost mai puternică în timp ce el a fost obtinerea mai slab.
“Nu am mai fost rănit și nu a fost abandonat într-o luptă. Vreau Marcus să se provoace și să vedem dacă el poate face ceva ce nimeni altcineva nu are. Sunt încântat să fiu într-o luptă de o asemenea magnitudine. Marcus, este timpul pentru noi pentru a da fanilor ceea ce doresc!”
ADAM Kownacka (16-0, 13 KO) – Originar din Polonia & lupta din Brooklyn
“Această luptă va fi un alt pas spre a deveni un campion. Știu că va trebui să lucreze foarte greu și dovedi că sunt în continuare să se bazeze pe victorie împotriva Szpilka. Din film l-am văzut pe Iago Kiladze (26-1, 18 KO), se mișcă mult, așa că voi avea nevoie să taie inelul. Oricare ar fi el aduce la inelul, Voi avea un răspuns.
“Trei ani la rând acum am luptat în ianuarie. Îmi place începând de pe anul puternic. Soția mea și am început de fapt, o tradiție a “Kownacki familie” la miezul nopții on New Year’s Eve. Din moment ce eu sunt mereu pregătesc pentru o luptă în jurul valorii de Anul Nou, ne-am gândit că s-ar putea avea la fel de bine distractiv în timp ce lucrăm. Așa, vom avea niște prieteni ieși și a alerga câteva mile cu noi în jurul valorii de cartier în timpul focuri de artificii. Este distractiv și ajută să mă gata.
“În cele din urmă, Sunt în căutarea de a deveni cel mai bun din divizia grea. Scopul final pentru acest an este de a deveni un campion mondial. Dar primul pas este de a lua foarte în serios Iago Kiladze. I can’t look past Ianuarie 20 chiar acum. Am un adversar dur, care va provocare și mă face un luptător mai bine pe termen lung.”
IAGO KILADZE, A treia luptă deoarece se deplaseze până la diviziunea grea (2-0, 2 KO)
I feel great and my training has been terrific. antrenorul meu este Freddie Roach acum. I sparred cu (IBF Cruiserweight Champion) Murat Gassiev de trei ori mai recent, care este o mare pregătire pentru mine. I believe I can knockout Kownacki but if I have to go the distance I’m prepared for that. Oricum, Voi fi victorios. Sunt simt că eu sunt luptător mai calificați și care vor arăta în ring.
“Aceasta este o lupta mare pentru cariera mea și un început teribil pentru 2018. I know that if I win this fight I’ll be that much closer to a world title opportunity.
“Scopul meu este de a fi un campion mondial la sfârșitul anului 2018. I want to continue improving and learning under Freddie and with his guidance I’m confident of success.

Aici este ceea ce participanții la conferință de presă a avut de spus miercuri:
ERROL Spence JR.
You’re going to see the same Errol Spence that you’re used to. I can’t look ahead because I know how dangerous Lamont Peterson is. I’ve been in training camps with him and I know what he can do.
I’ve seen too many fighters look down the road and get beat before they get to the big fight. I have to be 100 percent focused and hungry. I’m fully dedicated to this fight.
Lamont can push me to even greater levels. I feel like he is a better fighter than Kell Brook and has even more heart than Kell Brook and he can bring out the best in me.
I think it’s going to start out as a boxing match, but as we go on, it’s going to be a dog fight. We both have big hearts. I’ve never known Lamont to turn down any fight. Not a lot of people wanted to fight me. The big names shied away from me but Lamont stood up and said he’d fight me. This is going to be a hard fight.
I used to watch Lamont and his brother Anthony Peterson before I ever met them. I like their styles, the way they throw body punches and the fundamentals that they learned from Barry Hunter.
I think I can be known as the best pound-for-pound in the sport, but I have to take it one fight at a time. I want to be the undisputed welterweight champion. That should be everyone’s ultimate goalto be the best fighter in the sport. But first I have a big test ahead of me Ianuarie 20.
This is the business of the sport. I was a young guy when Lamont was giving me advice. Now we’ve gotten to this point. It really shows his longevity in the sport and how I’ve reached the ranks of being a top pro fighter.
Sparring with Lamont Peterson was really great work. A fost o experiență de învățare. I was an amateur so I was going at a fast pace and Lamont was being patient, blocking and countering and picking his shots. He was fighting at a pro pace and I didn’t really understand it until I got farther into my career.
You’ve seen me and Lamont fight. We’re not in boring fights. We have fan-friendly styles and you’re going to get a really good fight. We have the mentality to really go after it and give it our all to get this win.
I want the best in this division to all fight each other. It’s time for everyone else to stand up and proclaim that they want to be great. That’s how we get this division to the peak. I don’t feel like waiting to fight the best. I want to prove myself.
LAMONT PETERSON
This is a world title fight and I’m thankful for that. I try not to make too much out of each fight. I just want to take it one fight at a time. I’ve done this for 13 years as a professional. All fights are the same. I’m going to go in there and take care of business.
As a top fighter, you’re obligated to take what comes on the table. Regardless of who it is. It’s boxing. It’s a sport and we’re competitors. We want to go in there and compete to see who’s the best. We’re going to treat it like business like we always do.
You already know when I fight, it’s a feeling out process to start, but in my head, Sunt gata să merg. It’s going to get rough in the trenches and we’ll see who wants it more.
I knew six years ago when Errol was in my camp that we’d get to this point. I knew he would be a champion. În majoritatea cazurilor, I’ve seen him improve and progress throughout the pro ranks and I believe he’s going to keep getting better.
I don’t pay any attention to the outside noise. I respect everyone’s opinion. I just go out and train to do what I love to do. I do this because I love to box. I’m not here to get on a list. I truly love this sport.
I can’t worry about people thinking that Errol is the next star in this sport. I believe that, but I can’t worry about it. It is up to me and my team to come up with the right type of strategy and execute it.
I’m not too worried about figuring out his southpaw stance. I’ve been around long enough and encountered enough southpaws. I’m confident I’ll be able to handle it.
The size may seem like an advantage for Errol, but it’s up to me and my team to figure out the best way to negate it. I know who I am. I’m a competitive person. Regardless of everything, I’m going to come to win.
DERRICK JAMES, Trainer Spence
We have a game plan in place. We’ll try to perfect everything leading up to this one. We’re working on making Errol a more complete fighter every time out. He’ll be better than he was when you saw him against Brook.
We’re looking for the perfect fight. It takes a great fighter to bring out the greatness in another great fighter. These guys are high caliber fighters and it’s about as good a matchup as you can have in the division.
These are two guys with the mentality to go after it. But they also have technical skill. This is going to be an old school fight between guys with real skills.
It’s one thing to do it, but it’s another to teach. I’ve really understood this sport since I became a trainer. Fighters are developed, not born. I’m going to keep working with these guys on the fundamentals so we can bring up the whole sport.
BARRY HUNTER, Trainer Peterson
When I look at Errol Spence, I instantly fell in love with him because he reminded me of Lamont so much. They both have that dog mentality. I’ve always known he was a special fighter.
Lamont told me when he worked with Errol that he really liked the kid. He knew he would be a world champion. I had to remind myself that this is business. We have to fight our friends.
These are the two guys who are ready to fight anybody. The fight on Ianuarie 20 is going to be one to remember. It’s a fan-friendly fight.
Errol Spence is the best fighter in the welterweight division. You have athletes that can fight and athletes who are fighters. Errol and Lamont are both. They have the skills and they have the ability to fight.
To be the best in the world, you have to fight the best in the world. All the greats have done it. In order to get back to the glory days, we need to put the best against the best. I have confidence in Lamont Peterson against anybody.
LOU Dibella, Președintele Dibella Divertisment
There are very few fights you could make that are better in the welterweight division than this fight. It’s going to take place at the home of big-time boxing, here at Barclays Center in Brooklyn and live on SHOWTIME.
Errol Spence is one of the most talked about fighters in the sport. Some think he could be the best fighter in the world. He’s consistently said he only wants to fight the best and on Ianuarie 20 he will be fighting another champion and another great welterweight. Lamont Peterson never backs down from a challenge and we know he’ll be ready for this fight on Ianuarie 20.
This is a great event that continues the run of significant meaningful matchups on SHOWTIME. It’s been great quality programming. The fight cards have all been incredibly easy to promote because the fights have been so strong. You have to make fights with great fighters battling other great fighters. That’s what we need to energize our fans and our sport.
STEPHEN Espinoza, Executive VP & Director General, Showtime Sports
As we come to the end of 2017 we look back on what has been a really strong year. 25 nights of live boxing, 80 live boxing matches and 27 lupte titlu mondial. Not just title fights, but world title fights featuring top ranked challengers against top ranked champions.
We’ve brought you the most watched fight of the year in Keith Thurman vs. Danny Garcia right here at Barclays Center on CBS. It was also the most watched primetime boxing match in nearly 20 an. But we will not be resting on our laurels.
We’ll kick off next year with an incredibly strong card. Errol Spence has grown up on SHOWTIME and we’re proud of that. He made his debut on ShoBox and won his world title on SHOWTIME. He has knocked out nine straight opponents and in his last five fights his opponents have an impressive record of 141-7-3.
Not a lot of fighters are rushing to fight Errol Spence. Lamont Peterson not only stepped up to the challenge, but he relinquished his welterweight title to take this fight. That’s the kind of fighter he is. He has one of the strongest resumes in the division and he’s fought the best guys in the sport.
We’re thrilled to kick off the year with this matchup. It’s another great fight in the welterweight division, a division we’ve been paying a lot of attention to for years. We’ll see you on Ianuarie 20.”
BRETT YORMARK, CEO of Brooklyn Sports & Divertisment
We’re coming off of an incredible 2017 for BROOKLYN BOXING. It far exceeded my expectations. We’re very committed to boxing, not just now, but in the future. This fight kicks off what I think will be a great 2018 for BROOKLYN BOXING.
Lamont was on the first ever PBC card at Barclays Center in 2015 and Brooklyn is happy to have you back. Errol was here in the spring of 2016 and we’ve had him as a fan several times, but we far prefer having you here in the ring.
Barclays Center is known for hosting 50-50 fights and this is no different. We’re thrilled to be holding this event here in Brooklyn. We look forward to seeing you on Ianuarie 20.”

I’m pleased to be promoting Spence vs. Peterson, one of the very best matchups in the welterweight division and in all of boxing,” a declarat Lou Dibella, Președintele Dibella Divertisment. “Spence is not only one of the best welterweights in the world, but one of the best pound-for-pound fighters in boxing. In Peterson, he faces another elite welterweight and a two-time world champion. Spence vs. Peterson will bring the heat to Barclays Center on a chilly January 20. This is yet another night in the outstanding run of big time fights on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING.
“Spence vs. Peterson is an intriguing matchup between two elite welterweights looking to reach the top of this marquee division,” spuse Tom Brown, Președintele TGB Promoții. “Errol Spence is a rising star with his sights set on title unification and the top of the pound-for-pound list, but he’s going to receive a stern test from Lamont Peterson, a multiple division champion whose resume is filled with top class opponents. It’s going to be another fantastic atmosphere at Barclays Center and a great night of fights live on SHOWTIME.
With his breakout performance against Kell Brook, Errol Spence established himself as one of top fighters in the welterweight division, if not in all of boxing,” a declarat Stephen Espinoza, Executive Vice President și General Manager de, Showtime Sports. “Never one to rest on his laurels, Errol continues to seek out the toughest available opponents, and he has found exactly that in Lamont Peterson. Lamont has never backed down from a challenge, and as a result, he has a wealth of experience with one of the strongest resumes in the division. This type of high profile, dangerous matchup is the quintessential SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING main event.
BROOKLYN BOXING enjoyed a banner year in 2017, and we are looking forward to carrying that momentum into 2018,” a declarat Brett Yormark, CEO of Brooklyn Sports & Divertisment. “Spence vs. Peterson sets a strong precedent for the year, with two top welterweights returning to the ring at Barclays Center to compete for recognition in one of the sport’s most talented divisions.
Spence (22-0, 19 KO), de Dallas, traveled to England to dethrone IBF 147-pound champion and hometown favorite Kell Brook on Mai 27 on SHOWTIME in one of the defining fights of 2017. The 27-year-old, who had long been touted as boxing’s next big thing, fulfilled his promise with a breakthrough performance, fracturing Brook’s orbital bone en route to an 11lea rotundă TKO. A 2012 S.U.A.. Olimpic, Spence will enter the ring at Barclays Center for the third time after most recently stopping former champion Chris Algieri in an April 2016 main event. He will fight in Brooklyn for the fourth time; he earned his title shot by knocking out Leonard Bundu at the Ford Amphitheater at Coney Island Boardwalk in August 2016.
My goal is to unify the welterweight division in 2018, but this fight is a true test and Lamont Peterson is a veteran that I definitely will not overlook,” said Spence. “I sparred him in the amateurs and I know what he brings to the table. I have to get through him to achieve my goals and that is what I plan on doing January 20th.”
Peterson (35-3-1, 17 KO), de Washington, DC, has won titles at 140 și 147 pounds while facing some of the biggest names in the sport, including Danny Garcia, Amir Khan and Timothy Bradley. The 33-year-old won the WBA 147-pound title in his last outing Februarie. 18 on SHOWTIME before relinquishing the belt for the chance to challenge Spence. Peterson has won four of his last five outings, twice fighting at Barclays Center. His Brooklyn debut saw him defeat Edgar Santana by TKO in 2014 before dropping a narrow majority draw to Garcia in a 2015 main event in Brooklyn.
“Întâi și întâi, I’m happy to be getting back in the ring,” Said Peterson. “I’ve stayed in the gym and I’m ready to go. This is a fight I wanted and as I said before when I became a welterweight, I want to fight the best and make the fights that people want to see. I’m ready to give it my all and give the fans a great show.

BROOKLYN (Noiembrie. 5, 2017) – Undefeated heavyweight world champion Deontay Wilder retained his WBC title in his sixth defense with a dominant first-round knockout of mandatory challenger Cupa de aur în evenimentul principal al SHOWTIME Campionatul BOX Sâmbătă night on SHOWTIME from Barclays Center, casa de BROOKLYN Boxing®.
Wilder (39-0, 38 Lui KO) knocked Stiverne (25-3-1, 21 KO) to the ground three times before referee Arthur Mercante halted the bout at 2:59 a runda de deschidere. After Stiverne took Wilder the distance in their January 2015 title bout, Wilder has now knocked out every single opponent that he has faced in his career. Watch Wilder knocking out Stiverne AICI.
So much frustration, it just seemed like my career, it’s been crazy. So many guys using PED’s”, Said Wilder, the only American heavyweight world champion. “I just want to prove that I am the best. I know I am the best but I want to prove I am the best.
Wilder first knocked Stiverne to the ground with a devastating one-two combination that caught the Haitian challenger on the nose. Seconds after Stiverne got back to his feet, Wilder landed another clean combination with a big left and an overhand right that sent a stunned Stiverne back to the canvas. The final blow came in the waning moments of the opening round as Wilder landed four clean punches to the face of a wobbly Stiverne.
You have to give props to Stiverne for getting in the ring,” Said Wilder. “It takes a lot of courage and it takes a lot of pride to step in the ring with someone like me. We do what we have to do in the ring and at least he stepped up. He was a clean fighter.
After the brutal knockout, an emotional Wilder was asked by SHOWTIME Sports®reporter Jim Gray about a possible fight with unified heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua.
I’ve been waiting on that fight for a long time now,” Said Wilder. “I declare war upon you. Do you accept my challenge? I’ve been waiting for a long time. I know I’m the champion. I know I’m the best. Are you up for the test?
A king doesn’t chase the peasants. A king takes kings. I want Joshua. If he doesn’t give me the fight we have other plans. The world wants Joshua, the world wants Wilder, I want Joshua. Joshua come and see me baby. No more dodging, no more excuses. Make the date, don’t wait.
Former welterweight world champion Shawn Porter (28-2-1, 17 KO) învins Adrian Granados (18-6-2, 11 KO) prin decizie unanimă (marcat 117-111 de toți cei trei judecători) in an exciting fight between two all-action competitors that served as the co-featured event of SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING. The victory makes Porter the mandatory title challenger for unified welterweight champion Keith Thurman’s WBC belt.
Uzură, who injured his left hand in the sixth round, landed the sharper and more accurate punches throughout the fight, inclusiv 40 la sută din pumni sale de putere. Both fighters came out aggressive in the early rounds and exchanged several powerful blows.
He gave me a little trouble here and there,” Said Porter. “I hurt my left hand in the sixth round, but I kept using it. I had to use my jab. It took a toll on me and by the 10th round I just couldn’t throw it anymore.
The strategy was to keep working the jab. I knew he’d come at me periodically. I was prepared and dug deep to get the win.
Granados, of Cicero, Ill., fought valiantly and withstood multiple barrages from the powerful Porter and countered with several quick combinations of his own. Granados, who landed just 24 la sută din totalul pumni sale, disagreed with the judgesscorecard.
I thought that I was controlling the fight and keeping up with him the whole time,” Granados told Jim Gray. “He was just trying to use his normal tricks. I rocked him multiple times and he never had me in any trouble.
He’s a brute. I thought the referee [Gary Rosato] did a good job breaking up the fight at the right times. It was rough but I definitely thought I did better than the scorecards said.
În meciul de deschidere al transmisiunii, unbeaten top contender Sergey Lipinets (13-0, 10 KO) earned the vacant IBF Junior Welterweight World Championship with a unanimous decision victory over Japanese veteran Akihiro Kondo (29-7-1, 16 KO). The judges scored the fight118-110, 117-111 și 117-111.
The back-and-forth 12-round world championship fight saw Lipinets control the early rounds with a diversified, creative attack targeting Kondo’s body. An accidental clash of heads in the sixth round, which opened up a deep cut on the forehead of Lipinets, altered the momentum of the fight as Kondo gained confidence and was able to land some powerful punches to the head and body of Lipinets. The 28-year old Lipinets, who earned the title in just his 13lea professional fight, was able to regain control in the later rounds to earn the unanimous win.
I think the scorecards were accurate but it was a good fight,” said Lipinets. “The head-butt really impaired my vision and it led to me walking into some stupid shots.
I’m happy with my performance. I’m just going to keep getting better from here. I’m ready to take any on challenge thrown my way.
Kondo, who was fighting for the first time in the United States, proved a worthy opponent on the night. “It was a fair decision,” said Kondo, through a translater. “He hit me with a lot of hard punches and I felt like I needed at least a knockdown in the last round.
I made up my mind that I wasn’t going to show any pain or fear from his punches. I was determined to keep fighting all night.
