Spence Jr. and Bundu spoke to media at Via Della Pace in downtown Manhattan before they visited Coney Island for photo-ops ahead of their Søndag bout in the Brooklyn venue. Her er hva deltakerne hadde å si Torsdag:
ERROL SPENCE JR.
This has been a long camp. I’m in great shape and I’ve had strong sparring partners throughout. Bundu is a very good fighter. He’s experienced and technically sound, but he can be awkward.
I’m happy to be back in New York. I think it’s going to be a good fight and I’m looking to put on a spectacular performance.
We went up the rankings trying to find an opponent. A lot of guys didn’t want to fight me, even in a title eliminator. So I want to thank Bundu for taking the fight.
I’m not worried about what’s going to happen next. I know what’s next if I take care of my business. If I win I’m guaranteed a chance at the world title. I want the title fight sooner rather than later.
We try to break down an opponent’s weakness in camp. But we’re also looking at what they do right. We have to capitalize on everything. My trainer will watch the video and talk about what he sees. It’s a lot of communication in the gym.
I love sparring with younger guys. Preferably amateurs or guys who just turned pro. They have more to prove in a sparring session. They really push me and help make me better.
My main goal is to win. The only thing I have to do, is win. Hvis knockout kommer, Jeg tar det. But I’m not going to force it. He’s a tough and durable fighter. It has to be setup and it has to be calculated.
LEONARD BUNDU
“Spence Jr. er en god bokser. He’s probably my toughest fight to date. These kind of fights make me more motivated.
I have nothing to lose. I’m going to give it all I have and I’m very confident in myself. I believe I can be victorious.
“Spence Jr. and Thurman have some similarities but also are completely different fighters. I have studied Spence and I believe I will have an even better chance against Spence Jr..
I’m always trying new workouts and trying to improve my training. I’m in tremendous shape and I know it will help carry me in the ring.
I thought my performance was okay against Thurman. There was definitely room to improve and I think I’m an even better fighter now than I was then. I feel like I was 10 år siden. I’m like wine, I’m truly getting better with age.
I see his weaknesses and I have to take advantage of them. I believe I can put him in trouble with my countering but it all has to come together in the ring.
I love the challenge. I want to give him his first loss. That’s what I have to do. That’s all that is in my head.
LOU DiBella, President i DiBella Entertainment
Everyone should come out to Coney Island på søndag afternoon to see what’s going to be an incredible day and early evening of boxing. The fights start at 2:30 pm. in the afternoon and is fully covered, so there will be no weather issue. It’s a beautiful new facility with an incredible view.
This is the first boxing broadcast that will be nationally televised from Coney Island. In my mind we have one of the best young fighters in the world defending his standing against a guy who has had a long and successful career. Both Spence Jr. and Bundu were Olympians and it will be a real test for Errol.
There’s no question Errol is the favorite while Bundu is the underdog, but he’s been the underdog before. He knows he has to win and that this could be his last chance on a big stage.
I’ve promoted a lot of fighters throughout the years and there wasn’t a better fighter from the last Olympic class or this one that is better than Errol Spence Jr. In terms of ability, talent and instincts he’s world class. He fights with much more intelligence than his ring age. He’s a master of controlling the ring. When I watch this kid fight I’m always blown away.
On Sunday Spence Jr. is fighting a real professional and he has a chance to prove something on national television. This is a great forum for him to follow the Olympic Gold medal basketball game. The kind of audience that is going to watch the Gold medal game are the kind of people that we need to bring into boxing. I’m proud to promote this show.

BROOKLYN (August 15, 2016) -Ubeseiret stigende stjerne Errol “The Truth” Spence Jr.is leaning on his experience as part of the 2012 US-. Olympic team as he nears a world title eliminator on network television and eventually a world title shot.
People ask if I’m nervous about headlining big fights, but I’ve already fought on the biggest stage you can fight on at the Olympics,” sa Spence Jr. “I was fighting in front of the whole world and it got me ready for where I’m at today.
The 26-year-old will take on once-beaten Italian contender Leonard “Løven” Bundu in a welterweight world title eliminator that headlines Premier Boxing Champions NBC Søndag, August 21 from Ford Amphitheater at Coney Island Boardwalk in Brooklyn.
Televised coverage begins on NBC at 5 pm. OG/2 pm. PT following the Olympic Men’s Basketball Gold Medal Game. For Spence Jr., it was the experience of being around world class athletes such as the members of the USA Men’s Basketball team that he remembers most vividly about his time in London.
I’ll never forget meeting all of the athletes that I had grown up watching,” sa Spence Jr. “I got to meet Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, the Williams sisters and Usain Bolt. Just being able to talk to them and be around them was amazing. I was an Olympian just like them.
It was a big moment for me when people like that would recognize me and tell me they were going to come watch me fight. That’s something I’ll always remember.
While Spence Jr. had the best run of any of the men on the 2012 US-. lag, he came up short of his goal of bringing home a medal for his country. Despite that, Spence Jr. wouldn’t change anything about his 2012 erfaring.
I feel like everything happens for a reason,” sa Spence Jr. “If I go back and change something, it might change something in my future. So far my future is looking great right now. I’m one of the top fighters in the game and everything that happened in the Olympics led to that.
Four years removed from his time in the Olympic Village, Spence Jr. is ready to make his mark as a pro, but will still have an eye on the new crop of talent that is currently competing in Rio.
I would tell the Olympians to stay focused no matter what happens,” sa Spence Jr. “Work with what you have there, listen to your coaches and stay 100 percent dedicated. You got this far, so why slack now?
I wish them the best of luck and I think we definitely have some gold medal hopefuls like Shakur Stevenson and Claressa Shields. They’re going to come home with gold and it’s going to be big for U.S boxing.

This is another great opportunity for me to gain exposure on NBC,” sa Spence Jr. “A lot of people will be watching because of the Olympics that may not have known my name before. As an Olympian, headlining a major event four years after my Olympic run is exciting. Bundu is an older fighter, but he’s tough and has a lot of experience. He fought well against Keith Thurman. Thurman outboxed him but couldn’t knock him out. I think I can make a big statement in the division if I can stop him, as I did with Chris Algieri.
I am going to use my experience to my advantage on August 21,said Bundu. “When I fought Thurman I ended up being overcautious, but that will not be the case this time. I know it’s now or never for me and I won’t let this chance slip away. Spence will come forward but that will work to my advantage because I love fighting on the inside. I’m going to show Spence a few things that he hasn’t seen before.
The brand new Ford Amphitheater at Coney Island Boardwalk builds on the rich history of the sweet science in the Brooklyn neighborhood. Several heavyweight title fights took place on Coney Island at the turn of the 20th century, including James J. Jeffriesheavyweight world title knock out of Bob Fitzsimmons in the 11th round on June 9, 1899. Jeffries would then defend the title two more times on Coney Island with a points victory over Tom Sharkey and a knockout in the 23rd round against James J. Corbett. Lightweight great Joe Gans and former middleweight champion “nonpareil” Jack Dempsey also boxed in Coney Island.
It is exciting to have rising star Errol Spence headlining the inaugural boxing event held on August 21 at the new Ford Amphitheater at the historic Coney Island Boardwalk,” sa Lou DiBella, President i DiBella Entertainment. “Spence is one of the most gifted young fighters in all of boxing and is on track to be a world champion. He will face off against Leonard Bundu, in a final elimination bout, to become the mandatory for the IBF welterweight title, currently held by Kell Brook.
An Olympian who boasted a highly decorated amateur career, the 26-year-old Spence Jr.is coming off a dominating performance in which he stopped former world champion Chris Algieri in the fifth-round in a PBC on NBC main event. Spence Jr. is widely regarded as a future star in the sport and was dominant in his previous NBC appearances when he stopped Phil Lo Greco in the third round in June. His impressive 2015 also included TKO victories over Chris van Heerden, Samuel Vargas and Alejandro Barrera, culminating with him being named ESPN’s Prospect of the Year. Nå, he looks to secure himself a world title shot.
Originally from Sierra Leone but fighting out of Toscana, Italia, Bundu represented Italy at the 2000 Olympic games where he defeated eventual world champion Daniel Geale. A former European welterweight champion, he owns victories over Frankie Gavin, Lee Purdy and Ismael El Massoudi in addition to going the distance in defeat against Keith Thurman. Bundu comes into this bout with victories over Pablo Munguia and Jussi Koivula in his last two bouts.

$2000 Throwdown Fantasy Boksing Jacobs vs. Quillin overskrifter nytt spill & Return of Head-to-Head spill

For umiddelbar utløsning
NEW YORK (Desember 1, 2015) – Head-to-head-spill, tillater spillerne å gå en-mot-en til enten opp sjansene for å vinne eller å løse en poengsum, avkastning for neste $2,000Throwdown Fantasy Boksing spill, online på www.ThrowdownFantasy.com, drevet avCompubox.

Den mye etterlengtede mellomvekt oppgjøret mellom regjerende verdensmester Danny Jacobs og tidligere 160-pound divisjon titlist Peter “Kid Chocolate” Quillin headlines the new Throwdown Fantasy Boxing Game. Jacobs ($5100) er favoriserte over Quillin ($4700) fordi det tidligere er yngre, bigger and hits equally hard. Both are dangerous punchers but Quillin has proven to have the superior whiskers.
Det mest uoverkommelige favoritt i dette spillet er Regis Prograis ($5800) versus underdogAbel Ramos ($4000). Prograis is a rising star whose boxing skills are far superior to always tough Abel Ramos ($4000)
En annen tung favoritt er Fedor Chudinov ($5600) løpet aldrende tidligere verdensmesterFelix Sturm ($4300). Not only has Chudinov already defeated Sturm, han er også yngre, raskere og friskere.
Crafty southpaw Jesus Cuellar ($5400) har størrelse og makt fordeler motJonathan Oquendo ($4300). Cuellar figures to catch Oquendo after a few feeling-out rounds.
Tidligere verdensmester Chris Algieri ($5000) kan ha mistet sine to siste kamper, men de var til Manny Pacquiao og Amir Khan. Algieri’s aggressive style and experience should prove to be the difference against Erick Bone ($4300).
Den beste kampen i uken kan være mellom unge, folkemengde-tiltalende Omar Figueroa($5000) og veteran Antonio DeMarco ($4200). The aggressive Figueroa must control the pace against DeMarco, som beste dagene ser ut til å være bak ham.
En tungvekter pick-em har et par potensielle fremtidige verden tittel utfordrere i Dominic Breazeale ($4800) og Charles Martin ($4700). The big punching, tough Breazeale has holes in his game that he’s been able to overcome against smaller opponents. Martin, men, is a live ‘dog with the same size as Breazeale and equal power. Mer, Han er en lefty.
En annen tungvekter klassen finner en fading Chris Arreola ($4800) slåssing Travis Kauffman($4500), who is moving up in clash in terms of quality of opponent. Weight is always an issue with Arreola, which effects his ability to throw punches in bunches. Kauffman wants to push the pace versus Arreola, å ta ham ut på dypt vann, men å vinne runder underveis.
