With his brother, former world champion Marcos Maidana, sitting at ringside, the Argentine-slugger overcame a slow start and a first-round bloody nose for a sensational one-sided beat-down of the Puerto Rican brawler Maysonet, who failed to answer the bell for the seventh round of Saturday’s main event.
Referee Rafael Ramos, acting on the advice of Maysonet’s corner, called the fight as Maidana dominated the punch stats with a 60-22 advantage in overall punches, 49-15 in power shots, și 11-7 in jabs.
Maysonet came to fight and pressed Maidana from the beginning, eventually, nailing Maidana with a right hand to the nose that opened up a steady flow of blood.
Sensing the urgency, Maidana stormed back in the second, rocking Maysonet with a right hand, left hook combination with just over 10 seconds to go in a round in which he out-landed Maysonet 12-4 in power shots.
Maidana’s kept up a versatile attack in the third round using head movement, stick-and-move tactics and a varied assortment of punches to keep up his advantage over Maysonet.
Maidana turned the match in his favor in the next round, delivering an impressive battering of Maysonet over the final 20 seconds of the round.
The Argentine was even more dominant in the one-sided fifth and sixth rounds, doubling up on his hooks, firing straight rights and landing head-snapping shots that began the demise of a fading Maysonet.
Undefeated Alan Castano (11-0, 7 KO) failed to earn his third straight knockout despite out-landing his opponent 157-94 in overall punches, winning his middleweight bout by unanimous decision (78-74 de trei ori) over 22-year-old Aaron Garcia (15-6-1, 10 KO).
The 23-year-old Castano was accurate early in the first round with clean right hands supporting a stiff jab. The attack caused immediate swelling over Garcia’s left eye entering the second round, where he temporarily was able to trap and hammer away at Garcia with combinations against the ropes.
Garcia dominated the final 45 minutes of the second round with a momentum-swinging right to the head followed by successive combinations from both fighters at the bell.
A third-round clash of heads caused a nasty gash over Garcia’s right eye that increasingly streamed blood, forcing Garcia to go on the offensive, as Castano countered effectively with both hands to the head and body in an action-packed fourth round.
Castano continued to control the fight, establishing angles from behind his jab, follow-up rights and clean left uppercuts while Garcia stayed competitive throughout the round.
Fighting beyond six rounds for the first time in his career, Castano spent the final two rounds on the defensive, jabbing and countering from a distance and staying off the ropes on his way to winning unanimously.
The televised opener saw 19-year-old Brandon Figueroa (9-0, 7 KO) score a pair of final-round knockdowns on the way to his fifth-straight stoppage victory as he earned a TKO over Adalberto Zorrilla(7-2, 7 KO) la 2:44 mark of the third round.
The southpaw Figueroa, brother of former world champion Omar Figueroa, pressed forward with a double-fisted attack from the outset, but Zorrilla landed several uppercuts cleanly up the middle, refusing to back down from the challenge of the unbeaten prospect.
Zorrilla began to out-work the oncoming Figueroa to the head and body through the second round before being penalized for repeated low blows late in the round by referee Rafael Ramos.
The fighters engaged toe-to-toe, at ring center to start the third until a Figueroa left to the head rocked Zorrilla to the ropes. Figueroa saw his opportunity and pounced, flooring him with a left hand near the one-minute mark.
Zorrilla beat the count and engaged immediately, staggering Figueroa with a left jab. Figueroa came back to floor him for good, cu 18 seconds to go after a left to the body followed by one to the head. The blows sent Zorrilla to his back beneath a bottom rope, where Ramos waved an end to the fight.
Here is what the fighters had to say Saturday night:
FABIAN MAIDANA
“We were very pleased with our performance. He caught me with a good shot that drew blood from my nose in the first round. I just kept calm, listened to my corner and stuck to the game plan. I knew I was the stronger fighter; I just had to remain patient.
“I was a little disappointed that I didn’t get to knock him out, but I sensed that he would eventually quit. He stopped throwing punches and didn’t want to fight back.
“It means everything to have Chino (Marcos Maidana) by my side, supporting my career. It meant a lot to get this win on US TV in the same city where he beat Adrien Broner (în decembrie. '13) and became a star. With each fight, I want to show fans that I’m Fabian Maidana, not just his little brother. I proved that tonight and will do so with more experience. I’m ready to carry the family name in the ring.
“This was only my 10th pro fight. I’m going to keep improving each time. Lupta departe, I will look even better, no matter when it is.”
JORGE MAYSONET
“I had him hurt early, but I couldn’t put my punches together after that. I gave 100% of what I had, but I really only had 50% of my best stuff. I’m a lightweight. They wanted the fight at super lightweight, apoi 143. We took the fight because of who he is, really who his brother is.
“Ca să fiu sincer, we don’t think much of him as a fighter. He’s bigger than me and was able to beat me that way. My corner saw that I reached a point where I couldn’t fight the way I wanted to. We didn’t want to disappoint the crowd by going out there and not fighting, so my corner stopped the fight and I respect their decision. This isn’t the last of me, I’m coming back at my natural weight and will go on to achieve great things in this sport.”
ALAN CASTANO
“Sunt foarte fericit cu performanța mea. It was my first time going eight rounds, I had a lot of energy throughout the fight and was able to do everything I wanted in there.
“He was tough, but we knew that going in. I didn’t pay a lot of attention to his fight with Brian (Alan’s older brother, who beat Garcia by eight-round decision last December). I couldn’t tell you if he was any different tonight than when he fought that night. I just know what I wanted to do. He gave me a good test that I needed at this point in my career.
“I’d love to come back as soon as my team can make a fight for me.”
BRANDON FIGUEROA
“It was good to get the knockout, but I felt very off tonight, very sluggish. I like the activity I’ve had but this might be the first time in my career where I need a break.
“This was the toughest test to date for me. I knew that going into the fight and he landed a few good shots. This was a night where I needed to be at my best. I wasn’t but fortunate to get the job done.
“I know the left hook landed to his body to end the fight, but I don’t even remember it. I felt a little sick towards the end of training camp. My focus was just trying to get him out of there. I did that, so now it’s time to act like a teenager and enjoy a summer vacation, maybe slow it down just a little.”

Las Vegas (Decembrie 18) – The “forta” a fost cu starul cubanez și proaspăt încoronat campion mondial la categoria ușoară Rances Barthelemy (24-0, 13 KO) întrucât a câștigat o decizie unanimă în 12 runde în privința sudoxului rus Denis Shafikov (36-2-1, 19 KO) în meciul principal al finalei Premier box Campionilor (PBC) pe Spike carte de lupta de 2015. Transmisiunea de patru lupte, care a fost susținut de lupte netelevizate cu unele dintre promoțiile Mayweather’ creștere stele, a avut loc la Pearl at Palms Casino Resort din Las Vegas.
Ieșind dintr-un turneu mondial de lux, Floyd Mayweather s-a întors în Statele Unite și a stat lângă ring ca promotor al luptelor din această seară. Campionul mondial de cinci divizii, recent retras, care a aflat şi astăzi că a fost ales caSports Illustrated Fighter anului, a fost animat și angajat prin clopoțelul final al serii.
Evenimentul principal, care a început ca o luptă strânsă între picioare, s-a încheiat în favoarea lui Barthelemy, când a măturat ultimul sfert al meciului. Shafikov a controlat începutul luptei, să rămână în buzunar și să arunce pumni mai puternici decât Barthelemy, deoarece cubanezului i-a fost greu să se adapteze la un timp semnificativ mai scurt., totusi mai puternica, stilul lui Shafikov.
Punctul de cotitură al luptei a avut loc atunci când o tăietură cauzată de un pumn al lui Barthelemy s-a deschis deasupra ochiului drept al lui Shafikov în runda a opta.. Sângele a început să se slăbească cu furie și arbitrul Vic Drakulich a chemat medicul de lângă ring pentru a inspecta tăietura.. Când lupta s-a reluat, Barthelemy a atacat ochiul rusului și nu s-a lăsat niciodată pentru restul luptei. A profitat de tăietură și a combinat-o cu avantajul său de înălțime și atingere, ceea ce a condus la o rețetă pentru succes, deoarece acum este campion mondial în două divizii.. Judecătorii au văzut meciul 119-109 și 116-112 de două ori.
“Au fost momente în care am fost prins în stilul meu de a lupta. Mi-a luat un minut să mă adaptez la stilul lui Shafikov și să schimb pumni cu el,” Said Barthelemy. “Sunt foarte mulțumit de numărul de lovituri pe care am reușit să le scot.
“Am fost foarte impresionat de stilul războinic al lui Shafiov. Nu a renuntat niciodata nici dupa ce a fost ranit cu pumnii care i-au afectat lupta. Asta chiar m-a prins prin surprindere și, de asemenea, că a fost capabil să reziste toată lupta. Faptul că a continuat chiar spune ceva despre el ca luptător.”
“Nu sunt sigur dacă am câștigat lupta,” Said Shafikov. “Sunt foarte dezamăgit și vreau o revanșă.”
Evenimentul co-principal a avut un sfârșit bizar pentru ceea ce urma să fie o luptă de eliminare a cruiserweight. Southpaw din DetroitIsiah Thomas (15-0, 6 KO) a câștigat lupta pe toți cei trei judecători’ cartele de scor prin runda a treia când rusesc putere-puncher Murat “Fier” Gassiev (22-0, 16 KO) i-a aruncat accidental lovituri tardive lui Thomas’ cap după clopot. Loviturile l-au forțat pe arbitru Jay Nady pentru a face apelul dur pe care pumnii “a diminuat valoarea” lui Toma’ capacitatea de a continua. Întrucât lupta nu durase încă patru runde, regulile unificate afirmă că lupta nu se duce la scorecards, hotărând astfel un nu contest.
Chris Pearson (16-1 11 KO), o super welter promițătoare de la Dayton, Ohio și-a pus recordul anterior neînvins pe linie împotriva unui coleg neînvins Eric Walker (12-0, 6 KO) de Plaquemine, Louisiana în al doilea meci televizat. Walker a ieșit puternic, dominând primele runde împotriva lui Pearson, un alt membru al grajdului stelelor în devenire de la Mayweather Promotions. Un Pearson clătinat a perseverat și a încercat să schimbe curentul într-o rundă a cincea plină de acțiune cu o serie de lovituri în cap..

Runda a șaptea i-a văzut pe ambii luptători schimbând un baraj brutal de pumni, culminând cu o rundă a opta și ultima rapidă, care a atras ovații din partea mulțimii.. Walker, cel defavorizat, care a cheltuit 13 ani în Institutul Corecțional Dixon din Louisiana, a obținut o victorie prin decizie unanimă (79-71, 78-74, 80-72) câștigând cea mai mare luptă din viața sa în fața unui public captivat de televiziune națională.

“Dacă crezi în Dumnezeu și muncești din greu la ceea ce faci, vei reuși,” spus Walker. “Uită-te la mine acum.
“I-am urmărit luptele anterioare și știam că mâna mea dreaptă va fi prea mult pentru el și că o puteam ateriza oricând.,” a continuat Walker. “Condiționarea mea a fost cu adevărat diferența în seara asta. Eram într-o formă grozavă și m-am putut baza pe asta când lucrurile au devenit grele.”

Pearson a fost dezamăgit de decizie și a rămas dorind o revanșă.

“Eu iau palaria mea off la el,” Said Pearson. “Pumnii lui erau clare și dure. Pur și simplu nu am putut să merg la nimic în mod constant. Am crezut că este mai aproape decât judecătorii’ scorecards și cu siguranță vreau o revanșă cât mai curând posibil.”

În meciul de deschidere de seara, una dintre vedetele în ascensiune rapide ale boxului, Gervonta “Alesul” Davis (14-0, 13 KO) din Baltimore și-a pus în joc recordul de neînvins împotriva Mexicului Luis Sanchez (17-5-1, 5 KO) într-o ciocnire ușoară.

Davis, un protejat de 21 de ani al lui Mayweather, și-a respectat reputația de superstar în devenire, obținând o victorie în runda a IX-a, la knockout.. Sanchez și-a arătat duritatea și rezistența în timp ce l-a forțat pe Davis să lupte cu trei runde mai lungi decât orice luptă din cariera sa. Davis și-a arătat viteza și puterea în runda a opta în timp ce a aterizat un uppercut pentru a-și doborî adversarul hotărât.. În runda a noua, a aruncat o mână stângă masivă pentru a-l termina pe Sanchez, trimițându-l pe Mayweather în picioare în semn de sărbătoare.

“M-a simțit grozav să lupți cu toate aceste runde și să lucrezi,” Davis a spus. “Este un luptător dur și am învățat multe în seara asta. A fost o experiență foarte bună pentru mine.
“Am ascultat doar colțul meu și Floyd, mi-a luat timp și l-am dărâmat. Vreau să lupt din nou cât mai curând posibil pentru un titlu mondial.”
Mayweather, care era foarte încântat de Davis’ performanţă, vede viitorul tânărului luptător neînvins ca fiind luminos.
“Este întotdeauna bine să mergi acolo și să iei W,” Said Mayweather. “E tânăr. El încă învață. Așteptăm cu nerăbdare să devină campion mondial într-o zi.”
Mayweather sa bucurat de oportunitatea de a promova una dintre ultimele lupte ale anului în orașul său natal, Las Vegas, spunând, “Sunt atât de fericit că am putut să prezentăm la televiziunea națională câțiva dintre luptătorii talentați pe care îi avem la Mayweather Promotions. Câștiga sau pierde, Sunt mândru de toți.
“Mai important, vreau să urez tuturor Sărbători Fericite și să le mulțumesc pentru că m-au sprijinit, Mayweather Promotions și The Money Team în toți acești ani. Apreciez din suflet.”

CARSON, Calif. (Aprilie 18, 2015) – Confident and determined, Andrzej “The PolishPrinț” Fonfara (27-3, 16 KO) spoiled the ring return of Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. (48-2-1, 32 KO) in resounding fashion Sâmbătă noapte, flooring the former middleweight champion one time en route to a one-sided ninth-round TKO in the main event ofSHOWTIME Campionatul BOX trăi pe ARATĂ TIMPUL.

 

Fonfara, of Chicago by way of Radon, Polonia, dropped Chavez, of Culiacan, Sinaloa, Mexic, with a wide left hook 50 seconds into the ninth round before a boisterous crowd of 8,636 predominately-Chavez fans at StubHub Center. It was the first time in 52 professional fights that Chavez had hit the canvas from a punch.

 

Upon returning to the corner, Chavez could be heard on the telecast telling trainer Joe Goossen that he had hurt his right leg and could no longer continue. Momente mai târziu, the fight was halted. The busier and more accurate fighter throughout, Fonfara was comfortably ahead on the three judges’ scorecards by scored of 89-80 și 88-81 twice after nine full rounds.

 

Offered an ecstatic Fonfara, who had his fair share of Polish fans at the venue: “I knew he was a tough fighter, quick and in good shape but when he hit me for the first time in the first round, I knew I was going to win this fight. He didn’t punch as hard as everybody said he did.

 

“I saw his punches easily coming in. I know I threw more punches. I was a little surprised that he did not come out for the (10lea) but he was cut, had been getting beat up and had just got knocked down, so he knew what would happen if he came out.

 

“Chavez said before the fight that he didn’t think I could take his body punches. I think I took them pretty good and passed that test.

 

“I know there are things I can still work on in training to become a more complete boxer, darla noapte was a dream come true. I want a rematch with (Light Heavyweight World Champion) Adonis Stevenson.

 

Said Chavez, the son of legendary Mexican icon, Julio Cesar Chavez Sr. in the ring afterward and before he was taken to the hospital as a precautionary measure, “Poate 170,172 pounds is too big for me, maybe I’ll go back down. I’m not sure what my future holds. It was a very tough fight. But I congratulate Andrzej.”

 

Goossen told reporters afterward that he had “stopped the fight. It was my decision. I didn’t like what I saw. ”

 

In the first half of a SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING doubleheader, undefeated world-ranked super lightweight Amir I (17-0, 14 KO), of Davie, Fla., prin Albany, N.Y., won a lopsided 10-round decision over Walter “Hammer” Castel.

 

The talented, versatile, Am, 24, controlled a fight that featured numerous exchanges especially early on with a left jab and straight right hand.

 

“My combinations were effective the whole night, we stuck to our gameplan and came out victorious,” said Imam. “I want any of the world champions next”.

 

Castel, who saw a nine-fight winning streak come to an end, a spus “Am crezut că am câștigat lupta. I didn’t get credit for the punches I threw. The judge who scored it 100-90; bine, that gives me no chance to win here. The cut bothered me in the early rounds, but was not a factor after.”

 

Anterior Sâmbătă, on SHOWTIME EXTREME, neînvinsă Moises “El Chucky” Flori (23-0, 16 KO), Guadalajara, Mexic, captured the WBA Super Bantamweight Interim World Championship with a thrilling 12-round split decision over defending champion Oscar Escandon (24-2 16 KO), of Tolima, Columbia.

 

Flori, face sa 2015 debut and third start in a row in the United States, triumfat prin scorurile 116-112 de două ori și 113-115.

 

An emotional Flores was near tears afterward. “Acest lucru este un vis devenit realitate – more than a dream come true – pentru mine,” el a spus. “I saw my family on the beach, eating meat. I saw my babies better dressed. For me this is a life-changing victory and, da, I thought it was very, very close but I absolutely feel I won.

 

“I want to fight the best next, the top guys at 122 pounds and right now the top guy is Leo Santa Cruz. That’s who I’d like to fight next. I really want to thank all my team, de sus până jos, for giving me this wonderful opportunity. We’re very happy that we joined the Al Haymon team. We’re very loyal and we just really appreciate everything they’ve done for us.”

 

Escandon felt he’d done enough to win despite injuring the right index finger on his right hand in the seventh round.

“I did all that I could, everything was in my reach, but I think I broke or fractured my finger,” el a spus. “In boxing things happen that are out of your control. Because I hurt my hand, I couldn’t throw punches the way I wanted to with my right hand. I tried to do all I could with it. But I didn’t want to injure it further. I’m OK, but I definitely would love a rematch.”

 

In the SHOWTIME EXTREME co-feature, super-semimijlocie Omar “El Businessman”Chavez (33-3-1, 22 KO), of Culiacan, the younger brother of Chavez, Jr. and son of legendary Julio Cesar Sr., won an exciting, hard-au luptat, give-and-take eight-round unanimous decision over Richard Gutierrez (28-16-1, 17 KO), of Arjona, Columbia.

Chavez won by the scores of 78-75 de două ori și 77-74. There were no knockdowns.

 

Unbeaten Argentine welterweight Fabian “TNT” Maidana (6-0, 5 KO), de Santa Fe, Argentina, the brother of former world champion Marcos Maidana, registered a second-round TKO (32 secunde în runda) over outclassed Cory Vom Baur (2-3), of Vancouver, Spălare.

What the fighters, trainers and executives said Joi:

 

JULIO CESAR CHAVEZ JR., Fostul campion mondial

“I had a great training camp. I feel better than ever. I am ready for the fight.

 

“I know that this is a new weight class for me. I realize that Fonfara is very tough and bigger than me, dar sunt pregătit pentru provocare.

 

“I have worked on my boxing during my one year off, and I am very excited and motivated to get back in the ring.

 

“I have worked so hard for this fight because I am fighting in a new weight class. I must punch harder, so I have focused on getting stronger during this training camp.

 

“I have a great chin, I know how to take punches and my conditioning is great. A lot of fighters can take a punch, but I can take multiple punches and not be hurt.

 

“I think that Andrzej Fonfara is one of the best fighters in the light heavyweight division. Inside of boxing, everyone knows who Fonfara is. He knocked down one of the best boxers in the world in Adonis Stevenson.

 

“Fonfara is disciplined in the ring, but he doesn’t vary his punches.

 

“I understand that my dad didn’t want me to take this fight. I had bigger names I could’ve fought, but I think that Fonfara is a great challenge for me and I like the challenge.

 

“I would like to thank SHOWTIME for making this fight happen.”

 

Andrzej Fonfara, World Title Challenger

“I’m prepared very well and I’m ready for this fight. It’s been a great camp like always. I train hard for each fight. I’m a tough boxer who is feeling great. The weight is good and everything is perfect.

 

“I must put everything into Sâmbătă night and I will win the fight.

 

“I must look even better than I did against Stevenson. Everyone said I looked good, but I lost the fight. I didn’t want congratulations because I did not win the fight. But this time I will win the fight. I’m ready for a decision or for a knockout.

 

“I’m ready with a couple of plans. I don’t want to run around the ring, I want to fight tough. I’m going to use my jab and my right hand, which is my best punch.

 

“I’m not worried about what his father said about not fighting me. Chavez Jr. wants to fight and I will show him that his father was right.

 

“It doesn’t matter how I win, I want to win this fight and get my rematch with Adonis Stevenson.

 

“Chavez Jr. este un mare luptător. He uses a lot of combinations and has a powerful punch that I must be ready for. I want to show the whole world how good I am when I win this fight sâmbăta.

 

“If I get the chance, Am de gând să-l bat. It’s boxing so you never know what will happen. I want to box round-by-round and win this fight.

 

“I lost the fight with Stevenson but I showed that I was a good boxer. I’m a much smarter fighter now because of that experience. That was a fight at the top championship level.

 

“It doesn’t matter what Chavez Jr. says at a press conference, we’ll be in the ring Sâmbătăand everything will happen there.

 

“Fan’s can expect heavy punches, knockdowns and a great fight.”

 

AMIR IUBIRE, Undefeated Super ușoare Contender

“I’m confident going into this fight because of how I train. I have put my heart and soul into this sport since I moved to Florida three years ago. I left everything behind to better myself.

 

“I’m going to stay smart and composed in there and do everything I can to get the win.

 

“I don’t feel like I need the knockout to come away with a successful fight. Dar, you better believe that if there is an opportunity to knock him out, then I will take advantage of it.

 

“În 2015, Vreau să devin campion mondial. This is my breakout year. A lot of people have been buzzing about me. I want to become the WBC world champion, that’s what I’m heading for.

 

“Știu că e [Castel] a good opponent, he’s got a great resume, and he’s coming to fight. He has a great record, so that alone shows what he’s capable of. Ca Sâmbătă night may the better man win.

 

“I’ve boxed styles like [lui] plenty of times, but you never know, he could come out different Sâmbătănoapte.

 

“I’m ready to put on a great show for the SHOWTIME audience.”

 

CASTILLO WALTER, Super ușoare Contender

“I’m coming here to fight. I can tell you one thing, Amir Imam made a big mistake by taking this fight.

 

“I’ve fought a lot of tough fighters; my two losses were by decisions where I feel I was robbed. I’ve fought better fighters than Amir has.

 

“Ca Sâmbătă, I’m going to announce to the whole world that Walter Castillo is here to stay and he’s going to be a world champion.”

SR JULIO CESAR CHAVEZ.

“Being in Los Angeles is like being in Mexico for me; I have had many great memories. I became the world champion for this first time here and my son also became the world champion for the first time here, prea.

 

“Julio definitely has a very difficult fight ahead of him.

 

“If I was Julio’s manager, I wouldn’t have taken this fight. Fonfara is a difficult and tough fighter.

 

“My son wants to fight fighters of quality and wants credibility in boxing.

 

“Julio has worked and trained very hard for this fight .He has the capability to win and we expect that it will go very well.”

 

JOE GOOSSEN, Chavez’ Antrenor

“Julio has a window here the next five, șase, seven years that he can capitalize on.

 

“I think he’s left the childish stuff behind, and we’re all guilty of being childish.

 

“I think that Julio has surprised his father with his determination heading into this fight.

He’s got a left hook to the liver that just sends a shock through your body.

 

“He’s not soft. He’s a real fighter. I have been around enough fighters to know that he’s a real fighter. Numărul unu, he has the never-say- die attitude in there.

 

“We’re up against a very well-schooled, blue collar, workmanlike fighter in Fonfara.

 

“He is an athletic, improvisational fighter, in that you don’t know where everything’s coming from.

 

“I’ve watched a lot of Fonfara tape, and he pretty much repeats what he does, but he repeats it well.

 

“This is going to be a battle. You’ve got two contrasting styles and personalities.

 

“Julio has 51 fights under his belt. He’s no rookie and he comes from a great bloodline. (In the short time I’ve been with him, it has been) more of an association than a dictatorial effort between the two of us.

 

“Based on former camps, he’s never really extracted himself from comfortable surroundings and put himself in a position where he is completely isolated like he was in Lake Tahoe.”

 

SAM COLONNA, Fonfara’s Trainer

“Fonfara could turn it up whenever. He could be down on the scorecards and one punch he throws could change someone’s world. He’s proven in the past that he has power in both hands.

 

“The styles in this fight are perfect for each other. When people ask about the fight I say it could go either way, it depends on who catches the other first.

 

“I’m looking for Fonfara to dominate, but Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. is a warrior, he comes to fight, he knows how to go to the body like his father used to, so we’ve been working on all of these strategies.

 

“A knockout win would be a dream come true to me. That’s what I’ve been looking for all these years. Winning this huge fight would change everything for Fonfara and myself.

 

“This camp that Andrzej had was the best we’ve ever had. He worked hard, he had time to train and there’s no excuses.

 

“We’re coming to fight a war. Don’t forget that wars are won by strategy.

 

“People say to listen to your father. His father told him not to take this fight, but he took it anyway and that was a mistake.

 

“I see this fight not going past 10 runde, with us getting the knockout.”

 

STACY MCKINLEY, Trainer Imam lui

“Amir has always trained very hard, but I did see a change in him in this training camp after the last fight. He has stepped up his training by two levels.

 

“He learned a lot about his fight against [Fidel Maldonado] under the bright SHOWTIME lights at the MGM Grand.

 

“Amir is always confident going into each fight, but he made a mistake in the Maldonado fight. He rolled his right hand and forgot about the left hand and was knocked down. He had to pay for his mistakes but it’s all a learning experience, he still has only 16 professional fights under his belt.

 

“Castillo has a great jab and good combinations. A guy like that throws a lot of punches, but there is a technique to breaking down a fighter like that.

 

“We can’t spend a lot of time on the ropes, and we must go after his body because his body is weak. Castillo is going to get knocked out sâmbăta.

 

“I think that Amir is going to open up a lot of eyes sâmbăta.”
