& Former Multiple Division Champion Fernando Montiel Takes On Unbeaten Jorge Lara In Featherweight Action
Tv Dækning begynder ved 8 p.m. OG/5 p.m. PT
Billetter til salg nu!
CARSON, CALIF. (Marts 17, 2016) – Tidligere weltervægt verdensmestre “Vicious” Victor Ortiz (31-5-2, 24 KOS) og Andre “The Beast” Berto (30-4, 23 KOS) will meet again in a 12-round welterweight rematch in primetime on Saturday, April 30 som Premier Boxing Champions (PBC) på FOX og FOX Sports comes to StubHub Center in Carson, Calif.
Tv dækning begynder ved 8 p.m. OG/5 p.m. PT and features two exciting undercard attractions. Light heavyweight sluggers Edwin “La Bomba” Rodriguez (28-1, 19 KOS)og Thomas “Top Dog” Williams Jr. (19-1, 13 KOS)meet in a 10-round brawl plus former three-division world champion Fernando “Cochulito” Montiel (54-5-2, 39 KOS) faces unbeaten Mexican brawler Jorge Lara (27-0-2, 19 KOS) in a 10-round featherweight battle.
Ortiz and Berto first faced off in their 2011 welterweight world title barnburner that garnered significant Fight of the Year buzz. The bout saw both men hit the canvas twice, including a thrilling round six in which each fighter was knocked down. I sidste ende, Ortiz walked away with a unanimous decision. A victory in the rematch will propel the winner to the forefront of the world title picture in this stacked with talent division.
“I know I’m in for another war,” Said Ortiz. “I’ve always been open to a rematch because Berto has a big mouth and something to prove. After our fight, he went on a losing streak, because I gave his opponents a blueprint on how to beat him. My losses have been unfortunate, but I wouldn’t want to come up against me at this stage in the game. My name is Victor and that’s no coincidence.”
“This is the fight the people have been waiting for and it’s time to give it to them,” Said Berto. “I am in a good place mentally, physically and spiritually. I’ve never wanted my story to be perfect, that’s boring. Life is filled with ups and downs and I’ve embraced them all in my career. Everything I’ve been through has turned me into a savage. It’s time to close this chapter once and for all. I want his head!”
The undercard bouts are sure to feature exciting two-way action as the experienced veterans Rodriguez and Montiel look to hold-off rising contenders in Williams Jr. and Lara.
“This is a very big fight for the light heavyweight division,” Said Rodriguez. “Thomas brings it, men det gør jeg. You can expect fireworks from the opening bell as we are both looking to put on a sensational performance. Der bliver sagt, the light heavyweight championship is right around the corner, and there is nothing that is going to stop me from getting there.”
“I’m thrilled to be fighting on this card,” Williams sagde. “When they called me about this fight, Jeg sagde, ‘I love it, let’s make it happen.’ I think that it’s going to be a really exciting and fan-friendly matchup. Edwin is a strong fighter who I know is going to be prepared to bring it on fight night, and I’ll make sure I’m ready to do the same.”
“It’s a pleasure to be on this fight card and I promise an exciting night for the fans,” Said Montiel. “I came up short in my last fight, but I am determined to become a world champion in a new weight class. I always come to fight and I will be throwing punches non-stop until I’m victorious on April 30.”
“I’m blessed to be back in the ring as part of this great night of fights,” Said Lara. “My dream is to be a world champion, and to do that I have to beat fighters like Montiel. Jeg respekterer min modstander, but right now he is on my way and nothing is going to stop me.”
Billetter til live event, som fremmes af TGB Promotions, er prissat til $209, $105, $53, og $27, plus gældende afgifter, honorarer og gebyrer, er der tilbud nu og kan købes online på AXS.com.
PBC on FOX in primetime debuted on Januar 23 and featured a thrilling three-fight card that was topped by undefeated star Danny Garcia conquering former world champion Robert Guerrero to claim a welterweight world title in a back-and-forth brawl. Another exciting contest in the welterweight division is sure to thrill those watching at home and the Southern California boxing fans in attendance.
“We are proud to be bringing this long awaited rematch to the StubHub Center and the Los Angeles boxing fans,” sagde Tom Brown fra TGB Promotions. “Victor Ortiz and Andre Berto battled back in 2011, and their meeting on April 30 will take care of unfinished business.”
“After the overwhelming success of the return to boxing on FOX in January, after an almost 20 year absence, FOX Sports and FOX Deportes are thrilled to present the second Premier Boxing Champions fight on April 30,” sagde David Nathanson, FOX Sports chef for Business Operations.
“StubHub Center is excited to host this welterweight bout on Lørdag, April 30,” said Katie Pandolfo, General Manager of StubHub Center. “We look forward to an exciting rematch and an electric atmosphere at the premier outdoor boxing venue in the United States.”
En spændende fighter, der aldrig viger tilbage fra handling, Ortiz returned to the ring in December 2015 one year after injuring his hand during a third round stoppage of Manuel Perez. The 29-year-old stopped Gilberto Sanchez Leon in his last bout for his second victory in a row. Ortiz was a 147-pound world champion when he defeated Berto in 2011 at oprette et opgør med Floyd Mayweather. Kansas-indfødte har brugt tid i de seneste år at filme roller i film som “Southpaw” og “The Expendables 3” but is now fully focused on a return to the pinnacle of the welterweight division.
Berto is a former amateur standout and Olympian for his native Haiti. He challenged now-retired pound-for-pound king Floyd Mayweather in September. The offensive-minded Berto always makes for sensational scraps as his 2012 slugfest with Robert Guerrero was another Fight of the Year candidate. The 32-year-old thrilled in his PBC debut last March when he stopped Josesito Lopez in the sixth round of their welterweight showdown.
En dygtig amatør, der vandt en 2006 Nationale Golden Gloves guldmedalje og en 2005 US. Nationalt mesterskab guldmedalje, the 30-year-old Rodriguez enters this fight a winner of his last four fights. Født i Den Dominikanske Republik, men kæmper ud af Worcester, Massachusetts, Rodriguez’s only loss came to the undefeated Andre Ward in 2013. He owns impressive victories over previously unbeaten fighters Will Rosinsky, Jason Escalera, Ezequiel Osvaldo Maderna, Craig Baker and Michael Seals. Against Seals, i sin seneste kamp på November 13, Edwin rose from the canvas to score a devastating third-round TKO in what was a ‘Fight of the Year’ kandidat.
Williams Jr., a 28-year-old from Fort Washington, Maryland, was introduced to boxing by his father, a former pro fighter. A dynamite puncher, Williams Jr. has registered seven of his 13 knockouts in the first round. Men, the southpaw has also proven his endurance with unanimous decision victories over warriors like Michael Gbenga, Yusaf Mack and Otis Griffin. Most recently he earned two victories, including a second-round TKO over world-ranked contender Umberto Savigne last November.
The veteran Montiel won his first world title in 2000 i løbet af Isidro Garcia og gik på at få titel vindende forestillinger end Pedro Alzacar, Ivan Hernandez, Z Caps, Ciso Morales og Hozumi Hasegawa. Født i Sinaloa, Mexico, Montiel rode an eight-fight win streak heading into his October world title shot against Lee Selby. Montiel’s aggressive style frustrated Selby but it was not enough for him to grab a title in his fourth weight class.
Ubesejret ud af Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico, Lara gjorde hans US. debut on March 7, 2015 med en første runde standsning af Mario Macias i Las Vegas. The 25-year-old has ended seven of his last nine opponents early including experienced contenders Jovanny Soto, Jairo Hernandez og Oscar Ibarra. He looks to rebound from a technical draw in his last outing after the fight was stopped in six rounds due to numerous cuts Lara had received from accidental headbutts.

Here is what Porter and his father had to say Torsdag:

 

SHAWN PORTER

På træningslejr...

 

“Training camp is going great. It’s been hard work as always and nothing really different specifically for this fight. Obviously it is always a different game plan for a different fighter but that’s about it.

 

“I’m not making too many adjustments from my previous fight, just taking what I learn from each fight and take those learning experiences with you. Going into this fight we will definitely have some of our past experiences show up.

 

“It is getting closer. I feel it every day. It’s approaching and the excitement is brewing. The closer it gets the more excited and more focused that I get.

On being perceived as the underdog…

 

“I do not feel like I am coming in as the underdog. In order to be the champion, du nødt til at slå mesteren. That is my outlook on this fight, not only to outpoint him but to make it very decisive and dominate the fight.

 

”My motivation is to prove the doubters wrong.

 

“I have faced a tougher opposition than Keith Thurman. I feel like that may work most to my advantage. I think that there will come points in this fight where I will put him up against things that he has never been up against. It is all about how he reacts to what I throw at him.

 

“My plan is to go in there and shake him up, make him uncomfortable and carry the fight just like that.

 

“I am ready and whatever Thurman has to bring. Jeg er klar til 12 runder, I’m ready to knock him out. I’m ready to do whatever it takes to win. Jeg er klar.

On sparring with Thurman…

 

“We expect what we saw in sparring with him to show up in the fight. He moved around a lot when we sparred. There weren’t very many clean shots landed by either of us, but I know from sparring with him that I have to be aggressive and that I have to cutoff the ring.

 

“I would say that for the majority of this fight it is probably going to be me as the aggressor. He likes to bully guys at the beginning of the fight to wear them down to feel himself out.. We’re expecting him to move a lot more against me.

 

“We’re going to be aggressive, we’re going to be smart, we’re looking beyond this fight.

“In my last fight I didn’t get hit very much and I am taking that same mindset and defense into this fight.

On being the next Floyd Mayweather Jr…

 

“I am expecting to beat Keith and be the guy that everyone looks at.

 

“When you go up against someone at a high level like this, you go up and you show out.

 

“As far as Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao, I think those faces are going away. The welterweight class is exciting and there’s going to be a new face on the top of that ranking. I’d like that face to be me.

 

“I don’t make any predictions; I just know I am going to win.

 

“I have been waiting for this fight since 2013. I had just gotten my title then and I could see the way his career was moving that there was a collision course. We didn’t know how long this fight would take to happen or when it would happen, but we knew it was coming.

 

“When I was told this fight was happening all I could think was ‘Ok, let’s do it’ and it took some time to make the fight happen but when we finally did our faceoff, it felt great to look him in the eyes and let him know ‘I’m coming after you.’

 

“For me to fight Keith it has always been something that was a part of my career, all business not personal. It was just something that I needed to do to get to where I want to be.

 

“Keith Thurman is a good fighter. Nothing really sticks out to me as something I should worry about. He’s a good athlete and a good boxer, but he is very beatable, he just hasn’t been beat yet.

 

“You’re only as good as you’re last competition. If you look at the Kell Brook fight, I was not as good as I should’ve been. Since then I am very good, but still I feel that you are only as good as your last fight until you prove otherwise.

 

“It is and isn’t personal. For Keith to be considered one of the top dogs in this weight class, it is personal to me to beat him and reign over him. Other than that, it is all business.”

 

KEN PORTER

On being his son’s trainer…

“Because I have the history of working with a lot of top-level amateurs who have moved on to the professional level, I think that Shawn sees that in me as an edge.”

 

On his history with Keith Thurman…

 

“Jeg kender ham meget godt. I’ve had opportunities to work with him in the amateurs. I’ve had opportunities to work with him in the pros. I’ve worked in his corner in an amateur fight before, I’ve worked in his corner in a pro fight.

 

“Keith knows Shawn, they’ve sparred about 30 runder. He knows speed and won’t come in the ring trying to land a significant shot from the beginning. If he’s throwing that punch, he’s probably running the other direction at the same time.

 

“I would challenge [Thurman] to come in the ring and fight, but I know he’s going to fight. I know he will try to outbox us and try to land a slick and unexpected punch. Anyone can land a shot on you, that happens, but it’s what you do after the punch that counts.

 

“We’re looking forward to trading punches, boxing with him, slugging with him. We’re looking for a fight.”

On what it will take to win this fight…

 

“På dette tidspunkt, there’s going to be a lot of adjustments that have to be made, and I can’t just determine what it’s going to take to do it, but I know it’s going to take everything – speed, quickness, magt, aggressiveness, condition, making adjustments mentally – it’s an intellectual fight.”

Montiel’s aggressive style frustrated Selby but it was not enough for him to grab a title in his fourth weight class. The 36-year-old has an opportunity to get back in the mix for a world title with a victory over Mares.

DEVON ALEXANDER
“Denne lejr har været om at få tingene rigtigt. Jeg havde for at sikre min mentalitet havde ret. At miste er ikke en mulighed længere. I mit tab til Amir (Khan), det var ikke noget, at han nødvendigvis gjorde for at gøre mig mister. Alle de tab, jeg har haft, jeg tror, ​​jeg kunne have lige så let vandt disse kampe. Dette er en mental spil, og jeg var ikke der mentalt for de kampe.
“Jeg var nødt til at slippe af med de distraktioner omkring lejren, der var holde mig fra fuldt fokus på opgaven ved hånden og hvor vigtigt boksning er for mig. Jeg var nødt til at fokusere og derefter re-fokusere på, hvor meget det betyder for mig. Alle har brug for til at omprogrammere sig selv en gang imellem for at hjælpe dig med at huske, hvad der er vigtigt.
“Jeg ved Aron Martinez vil komme til at kæmpe. Han kender min rekord, og at jeg har slået nogle af de bedste. Så han ved det vil være hård for ham, og jeg er sikker på, han vil bringe sit bedste i ringen med ham, men det kommer ikke til at være nok. Når jeg er fokuseret på denne måde ingen kan slå mig.”
ARON MARTINEZ
“Min stil er at kæmpe og forhåbentlig han står og udveksling med mig, men hvis han ikke vi har en god slagplan til boksen ham. Vi ved, han er en bokser, så jeg er temmelig sikker på det er, hvad vi vil se.
“Jeg er nødt til at tage sig af Alexander. Jeg vil gerne give en god kamp, ​​og derefter gå videre til større slagsmål. Jeg er her for at kæmpe hvem de sætter foran mig. Jeg er klar til at kæmpe nogen.
“Jeg har ikke mødt en eneste person, der ikke tror, ​​at jeg vandt Robert Guerrero kampen, men det er fortiden. Jeg tror, ​​jeg slog ham, men det er boksning og jeg er klar til at kæmpe en måde anden type kampfly.
“Det føltes godt at vælte Guerrero fordi alle undervurderer min magt. Jeg kæmpede en masse stærke fyre og de har følt mine slag. Vi tog til kasse eller handelsmæssige slag.”
LEE SELBY
“Jeg er virkelig begejstret. Dette er min første verden titel forsvar, og det er mod en hård udfordring, at de fleste fyre ikke ville tage. Det er ikke en nem sejr, især med mig at skulle komme i udlandet.
“Jeg har valgt en formidabel fjende, og hvis jeg slog en fyr som ham og se godt, det skal hæve min profil natten.
“Jeg ved ikke rigtig studere krigere, Jeg bare gerne vide lidt om deres stil. Montiel kan gøre begge, Han har ikke en typisk stil. Jeg kan lide at holde det enkelt, fordi du ikke ønsker at forberede sig til én ting og derefter har din modstander kommer ud at gøre noget anderledes.
“Montiel er en stor puncher, men jeg har været med masser af gode læreboremaskiner. Jeg har slået flere ubesejrede fyre, og jeg har masser af erfaring for min unge alder.
“Jeg er vant til at komme ud her for træningslejre og så vidt ikke at have Hjemmepublikummet fordel, Jeg har vundet titler i fjendtlige skarer før, så vil det ikke være et problem.
“Jeg tror, ​​jeg er der med de bedste i divisionen. Jeg ønsker at bekæmpe de øverste fyre, og jeg tror, ​​at hvis jeg får en stor gevinst og se godt her, Jeg vil være i mix.
“Med disse kampe være på fri T.V., flere mennesker får at se mig og min profil vil ændre sig hurtigt, så længe jeg gør, hvad jeg er i stand til.”
Fernando Montiel
“Jeg tror helt ærligt, at (Selby) valgte den forkerte fyr til at kæmpe. Jeg har haft stor forberedelse til denne kamp. Alt arbejde er sat i. Han valgte bare den forkerte fyr at gøre sin amerikanske debut mod.
“Jeg var meget glad, da jeg hørte, at vi skulle til at kæmpe i Arizona. Der er masser af mexicanere her, så jeg ved, at jeg vil have en masse mennesker bag mig onsdag. Det kommer til at være stor for at kæmpe her.
“Jeg bestemt ikke lyst til alder har noget at gøre med denne kamp. Se på mig. Jeg er klar til at gå.”
