梅威瑟VS. 麦格雷戈 ** 深入预览和分析 **

2 评论

由: Tony Penecale

Fight or Farce? When Floyd Mayweather Jr. retired in 2015 with millions of dollars in his pocket and an unblemished 49-0 记录, there was a flood of speculation about whether he would ever return to the ring. A popular notion was his ego, along with his flamboyant lifestyle, would not allow Mayweather to stay away for long. When one of the young welterweight prospects–possibly Keith Thurman or Errol Spence–became the consensus #1 welterweight in the world, Mayweather would itch to come back and reclaim his throne.

 

然而, it turned out to be a boxing outsider that drew Mayweather back in the ring, in the person of the brash and cocky UFC star, Conor “The Notorious” McGregor. Known for his striking ability and fearless attitude, McGregor called out boxing’s money king and goaded him back with a High Noon showdown in Las Vegas.

 

Can this Mixed Martial Arts champion successfully make his boxing debut and defeat one of the best boxers in history? Or will Mayweather prove that there is a difference in being a superior striker in a martial arts environment than in a boxing match? Fight or Farce? We will find out in this Las Vegas “Superfight”!

风格

 

梅威瑟:

A pure boxer with extraordinary quickness and instincts who does everything well with an arsenal that includes a snapping jab, accurate right hand, and left hook that can be doubled and tripled with tremendous effect. 使用佯攻动作冻结对手和开放冲压车道. 塔克斯他的下巴远远落后于他的肩膀推出拳. 即使是在绳索, 他是一个困难的目标降落了坚实的冲上. 他没有很大的冲压能力. Most of his stoppage victories come from outpunching and outclassing his opponents while rarely scoring clean knockouts.

 

麦格雷戈:

McGregor boxes from a southpaw stance, light on his feet and using lateral movement, looking to set up openings for his thunderous left hand. While competing under mixed martial arts rules, McGregor often shunned takedowns and grappling, instead preferring to use his quickness and power from a striking stance, often with destructive results.

 

优势

 

梅威瑟:

* 经验 – Boxing is in Mayweather’s blood since his childhood. 赢得在96年奥运会上获得铜牌完成了广泛的业余生涯. 他已经成功地在竞争在过去的一个总冠军级别 19 岁月, facing and defeating all styles.

 

* 调理 - 梅威瑟是一个健身怪胎以惊人的工作热情，当谈到培训. 几个战士把自己推不亚于梅威瑟确实在健身房, 即使做午夜培训班. 它是在擂台上显而易见的，当他的耐力进行他在后期轮.

 

* 环大将 - 梅威瑟知道环的每一寸以及如何控制战斗. 他知道什么时候该进攻, 当框, 当调高热, 以及何时海岸. 梅威瑟拥有戒指的时候，他就在那里. 即使他一直愣在战斗中罕见的时代, 他能够快速地安顿下来，平息威胁.

 

麦格雷戈:

* Fearless – McGregor is a very self-confident and brash fighter. He has shown no fear against some dangerous MMA fighters and has had no problems taunting them, dropping his hands, and then backing up his bold actions.

 

* Unorthodox – Not only is McGregor a southpaw, he is an extremely unorthodox southpaw. He comes in aggressively on his toes and fires his punches from all angles, primarily his signature left hand. He will throw it straight or in a looping fashion from a distance, and even in a short chopping fashion while in close.

 

* 动力 – McGregor’s striking skills and power have been lauded in the UFC and he is widely recognized as one of the top strikers in the world of mixed martial arts. He carries thunderous power in his left hand and has scored knockouts in 18 他 21 胜利.

 

弱点

 

梅威瑟:

* 老化 – Mayweather may have an unblemished record but Father Time has never been defeated. Mayweather has been more flat-footed in recent bouts and he is now over 40 岁. He has not been as sharp in his last few bouts and is content to neutralize and outpoint opponents.

 

* Inactivity – This is Mayweather’s first bout in nearly two years. Since his win over Oscar De la Hoya in May 2007, Mayweather has only fought a total of 11 时.

 

* 冲切力 – Most of Mayweather’s stoppage wins have come from an accumulation of punches. 通常的结果是裁判或反对的角落停止回合，以防止进一步的处罚. Notwithstanding his explosive knockout of Victor Ortiz, 这是难得一见梅威瑟完成一个回合一记重拳, dating back to his days as a 130 lb boxer.

 

麦格雷戈:

* Boxing Experience – Despite competing in mixed martial arts and having a reputation as a dominant striker, there is a huge gap in the technique and skill level of professional boxing, and McGregor is clearly a novice when it comes to traditional boxing.

 

* Easy to Hit – Throughout his mixed martial arts career, defense was never McGregor’s strong point and he has taken a number of clean punches in some of those bouts. Reports of some of his sparring sessions have surfaced stating that McGregor’s defense could be a liability.

 

* Instincts – McGregor does not have traditional boxing instincts due to his lack of participation in the sport. Things that come naturally to Mayweather and other trained boxers won’t come as naturally for “Mystic Mac,” and he will have to concentrate and focus on not using his legs or elbows as he would in the mixed martial arts world.

 

上一页布特

 

梅威瑟:

(09-12-15) Mayweather was coming off of his historic win over Manny Pacquiao when he squared off against the faded Andre Berto. The bout was a letdown with Mayweather easily coasting to a unanimous decision victory in what was announced as his retirement bout.

 

麦格雷戈:

This is McGregor’s professional boxing debut.

 

3 表现最好

 

梅威瑟:

* 科拉莱斯迭戈 (1/20/01) - 专家们被撕裂的挑在这其中有许多倾向于科拉莱斯赢得由KO谁. 梅威瑟从来没有让他在回合, knocking him down five times before the bout was halted in the 10th round.

 

* 阿图罗·加蒂 (6/25/05) - 虽然梅威瑟是一个坚实的投注热门, 许多人预计加蒂把事情粗糙梅威瑟. It never happened as Mayweather floored Gatti in the 1st round and dealt out a severe beating before Gatti’s corner stopped the bout after six one-sided rounds.

 

* 哈顿 (12/8/07) - 哈顿是不败进入回合，并设定恒定压力Gameplan的磨损梅威瑟. 经过几次不舒服回合, 梅威瑟能找到他的范围，并接管, 在第10轮地板哈顿两次，迫使停工.

 

麦格雷戈:

* 埃迪·阿尔瓦雷斯 (11/12/16 - UFC 205) – Regarded as the most dominant and complete victory in McGregor’s career. He used his footwork to keep Alvarez at bay and avoid takedowns. McGregor punished Alvarez, knocking him down twice early, and then taunting him in the 2ND round with his hands behind his back. Shortly afterwards, a four punch combination left Alvarez pulverized in defeat.

 

* 何塞·阿尔多 (12/12/15 - UFC 194) – A flush counter left hand from McGregor was all that was needed to knock Aldo out, dropping him on his face and scoring the win in an amazing 13 秒.

 

* Diego Brandao (07/19/14 - UFC 46) – McGregor scored a takedown early and then started landing his left hand. Four minutes in, McGregor was able to cut the ring off and floor Brandao with a left hand, forcing a 1ST 回合暂停.

 

 

决胜关键

 

梅威瑟:

* Do not let McGregor gain any confidence

 

* Use superior boxing experience to create angles

 

* Time McGregor’s rushes and land straight right hands

 

麦格雷戈:

* Vary his attack to the head and body

* Force Mayweather against the ropes and close the distance

 

* Rough Mayweather up and force him to lose composure

 

问题与解答

 

* Why is this being contested with strictly boxing rules? Simple answer is money. To compete using boxing rules, the bout will be under the Mayweather Promotions “Money Team” banner. The money from the live gate, 广告, pay-per-view revenue, 等. will go towards the fighter’s take-home pay. To compete under mixed martial arts rules would then fall under the UFC banner where Dana White would be sure to keep a large chunk of the money.

* Will the 8oz gloves have an impact? McGregor has competed in mixed martial arts using fingerless 4oz gloves. The original plan was to use 10oz boxing gloves but it has been agreed upon to use 8oz gloves instead. That still favors Mayweather as he is accustomed to using heavier gloves.

 

*谁的损失最大? 梅威瑟, 毫无疑问. Outside of McGregor’s team, his most loyal fans, and novice fight fans, most pundits are expecting a dominating Mayweather victory. The odds are stacked in his favor in a traditional boxing match. If McGregor loses in a close bout, it is a moral victory and a lopsided loss, even though bruising to his ego, would be expected given their respective experience. If Mayweather loses or struggles in a close, controversial victory, his legacy would be irreparably tarnished.

 

* What happens if McGregor uses MMA attacks? Mayweather and his team are thorough when constructing a fight contract. His contract when fighting Manny Pacquiao looked like the equivalent of a Herman Melville novel. If McGregor tries any illegal martial arts tactics, he will surely forfeit a large chunk, if not all, of what is estimated to be at least a $75-million-dollar payday.

 

* Will Mayweather fight more aggressively? 在过去十年中, Mayweather has made his living using his defensive and counterpunching abilities to neutralize his dangerous opponents and win on points. He hardly resembles the brilliant fighter who dazzled and overwhelmed opponents early in his career. While he will still employ a Mayweatheresque defensive strategy early, the openings McGregor presents and desire to humiliate his braggadocios adversary will result in Mayweather sitting more on his punches and looking for power opportunities to the head and body.

 

* Will the fight turn ugly? Neither fighter is afraid to play the arrogant villain role nor bend the rules a bit. In sparring sessions, McGregor was seen landing punches to the back of the head and pushing. Mayweather was criticized for knocking out Victor Ortiz with a punch when Ortiz was trying to apologize for a foul. The presence on Mayweather’s team of Roger Mayweather and Leonard Ellerbe as combustible elements adds to the potential for drama. An ugly fight ending with either fighter disqualified is not out of the question. Referee Robert Byrd will have his hands full controlling the action if fouls start to occur.

 

* 接下来发生什么? 如果打原来是娱乐, 近, 或争议, a rematch is possible. If McGregor pulls off the upset, Mayweather will certainly request a rematch. If the bout is a close Mayweather victory, his reputation may be damaged enough that he requests a rematch. If the bout ends up with a dominant Mayweather victory, McGregor can go back to the UFC a richer man and a bigger crossover star. Mayweather vows to again retire but likely only until he gets challenged again for the next ultra-rich fight. He also hinted that he may challenge McGregor in the UFC Octagon, though he told reporters on a recent conference call that this will be his last “斗争。”

 

PENECALE预测

 

It will be a raucous and electric atmosphere as the fighters enter the ring, and it will build towards a crescendo during an intense staredown. As Robert Byrd goes through the instructions, McGregor will step into Mayweather’s face and try to start capitalizing on the intimidation factor. 梅威瑟, normally confident and relaxed, will respond with an icy glare.

 

McGregor will spring out of his corner for round one, moving forward on his toes and flailing his arms in an unorthodox fashion. Mayweather will move to his left away from McGregor’s power hand as McGregor presses the action and moves forward with a few wild left hands. McGregor will throw another wild left that falls short and then try to bull Mayweather into the ropes and club him with left hands. Mayweather will clinch against the ropes and McGregor will try to maul on the inside, using his shoulders as a weapon, warranting the first warning from Robert Byrd. As the bell rings to end a sloppy 1ST 圆, McGregor will jaw with Mayweather as they walk back to their respective corners.

 

For the first half of the 2ND 圆, the pattern will continue with Mayweather playing matador to McGregor’s bull rushes and wild left hands. About a minute into the stanza, as McGregor starts another one of his advances, Mayweather will pivot to this left and land a flush right hand, causing the sweat to spray off of McGregor’s head. Mayweather will set his feet, roll his shoulders, and fire another one-two combination down the middle, feint his jab and throw another right hand, which again lands flush.

 

Starting in the 3RD 圆, Mayweather will begin to assert his dominance. McGregor will start to realize that having the best boxing ability in the mixed martial arts world does not guarantee success in the boxing world. The fastest NFL linebacker is still out of his league when racing against Usain Bolt. Mayweather’s natural ability and experience will shine as he starts to land right hands at will, and McGregor will show the effects with swelling and discoloration under his left eye.

 

The talent and experience disparity will be evident as the bout progresses in the 4日 和 5日 发. Mayweather will be comfortable standing in the pocket and hitting McGregor with right hands at will. While the right hand will be his punch of choice against his southpaw opponent, Mayweather will also lead with several left uppercuts, landing his punches from a dizzying assortment of angles. The end of the 5日 round will see a quickly-fatiguing McGregor slumping on his stool

 

该 6日 round will be a punishing affair, similar to Mayweather’s 2005 dissection of Arturo Gatti. Mayweather will have found the home for his right hands and will continue to land them sharply. He will also feint the jab, so when McGregor bites on the fake and turns away to protect his chin, Mayweather will drive the punch to the body before coming back over the top to the head. A left uppercut will buckle McGregor’s knees and another right hand at the bell will wobble him, sending him staggering back to his corner.

 

As McGregor sits on his stool, his left eye nearly swollen shut, and blood flowing from his nose, his corner will decide to save their warrior from additional punishment and stop the fight. Mayweather will rise from his stool and rejoice in his victory.

 

The winner by 6日 round TKO is FLOYD “MONEY” MAYWEATHER JR!!!!

“On behalf of Mayweather Promotions we send our prayers and deepest condolences to the Porter family,” 伦纳德说Ellerbe, 梅威瑟促销的CEO. “In boxing we have to deal with curveballs that constantly come at us. Thomas Dulorme has been training hard and is ready to face Yordenis Ugas. Ugas is a tough competitor that shouldn’t be overlooked, and Dulorme is ready. The fight fans are definitely in for an outstanding show between Dulorme and Ugas come 八月. 26.”
“I have been training for this fight for a several weeks now, I knew at the-time Porter was going to be a tough challenger so I took training camp extremely serious,” 说Dulorme. “Fighting on a card this big, you cannot doubt anyone in front of you. My new opponent doesn’t change much. All I can do is continue to stay focused and listen to my team and bring the best fight I can.”
“It’s an honor to be fighting on one of the biggest boxing cards in history and fighting in the same ring as one of the most famous boxers in the world – 梅威瑟,” Ugas said. “This is the type of fight that I’ve been looking forward to having since I came back last year after being off for almost three years. This will be my fifth fight in a year. And this is the second fight that I’ve taken on short notice this year. But it doesn’t bother me because I’m always training. Dulorme is a tremendous fighter. He’s very aggressive and very technical. He’s going to get my very best as I know I will get the very best from him. It’s really an honor to fight a quality opponent on a card like this.”

Prior to his title opportunity, Dulorme picked up impressive victories over Hank Lundy, Karim Mayfield and DeMarcus Corley. He will look to make a statement on his way to another world title opportunity with a win against Ugas.
Ugas will enter the ring for the third time in six months when he faces Dulorme on 八月. 26. The 31-year-old Ugas, a bronze medal winner for the Cuban team in the 2008 Beijing Olympics, has been on an impressive four-fight roll that started last year when he scored a decision victory over then unbeaten Jamal James and followed it up by stopping then unbeaten Bryant Perrella in the fourth round. Ugas continued to take down contenders in 2017 as he defeated Levan Ghvamichava by decision on 二月. 2 before stepping in at the last minute two months later to stop Nelson Lara.

这里是参与者不得不周四说:
梅威瑟
“I’ve been here before and I know what it takes. It’s my same old routine but I’m older now so I have to let the body rest a lot more. With age comes wisdom. When I was a lot younger I would just train and train and never let myself recuperate. When I come back from resting I come back rejuvenated and with a lot more spark.
“This isn’t just a fight; this is an event. We both owe the fans and everyone tuning in a lot of excitement. That’s what we’re there to give them.
“I know I’m going to face a warrior. It’s not for me to worry about what he does on a day-to-day basis. I have to worry about what I have to go out there and do. I have to execute the game plan. I’m not going to overlook him. That’s why I’m in here working extremely hard.
“When it’s all said and done it comes down to the two competitors. My dad can give me a brilliant game plan but he can’t get in there and fight for me. Same for Conor and his team. It doesn’t matter who the crowd’s rooting for, it’s two men in there.
“This training camp has been a lot different. I’ve spent some time in Miami and in Los Angeles training. I’ve been pushed really hard by the young guys in camp. I don’t need to post every workout video because I’ve been around this sport a long time and everyone knows what I can do.
“On paper we know he’s taller and has a long reach. He has youth on his side. People say that he has power on his side. I know that ring IQ and experience are in my favor. I have the fight knowledge on my side. We both have advantages.
“I know he’s going to come out and try to switch stances. He’ll come out southpaw then go the other way. But all that does is burn energy. Then I’m going to give him a look and give him some knowledge, and we’ll see what happens.
“Conor feels it’s not going to go past four rounds and I don’t think it’s going the distance. We’re both confident in our skills and we’ll see who gets it done.
“My opponent is always confident, but it’s different being in there with Floyd Mayweather. They realize that this is real. But for me, it’s just another day. That’s the mentality that has allowed me to stay undefeated.
“It’s been great to be in a position as a promoter to give knowledge to young fighters. It’s one of my ultimate goals to take a young fighter and make them a household name. I want to take fighters to the next level.”
GERVONTA DAVIS
“我感觉好极了. Being in the same ring and on the undercard of Floyd’s fight is amazing. I’ve worked hard to get to this point and I’m ready to put on a great show on 八月 26.
“Training has been sharp. I’ve been stopping a lot of guys in training. I can’t wait to get in the ring and give the fans a big knockout.
“Being on this card has been a big motivation in training. It feels great and I’m truly blessed to be in this position. I think the excitement that this card brings will be great for the sport of boxing. I’m ready to shine.
“I know I have a tough undefeated opponent who’s going to come in and try to take my belt and I have to take care of business. He has some decent power so I think it’s going to be an exciting fight.
“I’ve accomplished a lot at a young age. It’s all because of the hard work that I’ve put in for my entire life. I don’t complain, I just keep working every day.
“I’m ready to take full advantage of this chance I have. It’s just one step on a long road I see to the top of this sport.”
BADOU JACK
“Everything is great in training camp. I’ve been in training for about seven weeks getting ready for this matchup. I’m excited and happy to be a part of such a big event.
“I think this weight is going to be better for me. I’m going to have more power. I’ll be more athletic and style-wise I prefer to fight bigger guys. I can use my speed, but I also like to go inside and break my opponent down. It’s harder if I have to chase them, but the big guys are going to be right there.
“Cleverly has a high work rate and he’s very tough. 他要来打. That’s what we want. It’s a good first fight for me at this weight.
“I’m excited to work hard these next two weeks and get to fight night. He’s been in some good fights but I’m different than anyone he’s faced. I’ll show how my skills translate to light heavyweight.
“It’s really a blessing to be in this position. I’m happy because a lot of other fighters don’t get to be on this stage. I’m so thankful to my whole team. I won’t let the fans down and on八月 26, I’m coming to steal the show.
“I’ve done everything right to get to this point. 这是一种荣誉，在这个位置上. I just have to take care of business.”
ANDREW TABITI
“This is a huge deal to me. Floyd Mayweather is the biggest star in boxing and to be a part of everything that’s going on is a dream come true.
“I was really happy when I found out that I’d be fighting on this card. There aren’t really words for how blessed I am to be in this position.
“这场斗争意味着很多给我. This is a chance for me to become the American face of cruiserweights just like Steve Cunningham was. I’m taking this very seriously and I have great respect for Steve Cunningham, but this is my time to take it.
“I’m ready to be a fresh face in the cruiserweight division. I’m going to give it everything I have. I’m humbled by this experience and I’m going to take advantage of it.
“I can’t wait to open the show. There’s a little added pressure being at the beginning of the PPV but I’m going to embrace it and put on a great performance.”
LEONARD ELLERBE, 梅威瑟促销的CEO
“Floyd is a lot wiser now. He’s gotten smarter with age. He’s a young man who has an incredible vision and I have a great deal of respect for everything he’s done.
“The older you get, the harder it is to get things going in training. It’s taken Floyd a while to get in a groove, but he’s in a groove now.
“All of these records being broken are because of Floyd Mayweather. He’s been innovative and he always thinks outside the box. That’s why he’s had such tremendous success.
“We’ve been able to generate a great deal of interest in new avenues and bring Floyd to even more casual fans because of the boxing and MMA worlds colliding. This is going to be one of the biggest nights in sports entertainment history.
“Both guys are looking to knock each other out. I believe Conor McGregor when he says that he’s looking to knock Floyd out in the first four rounds. He hasn’t shown me anything to make me think differently. Floyd usually just goes and does his thing, but with some things that have happened recently, I think Floyd really wants to get him out of there.”

And to do it before one of the most anticipated sporting events ever is even more exciting. I feel like I’ve earned this spot and I’m ready to give the people the appetizer they deserve! ‘Showtime’ Shawn Porter never disappoints and I will prove that again on August 26.”

WBA Light Heavyweight Titlist 弥敦道巧妙 will defend his title against former 168-pound world champion 八斗杰克 “开膛手”, who is stepping up in weight and into this world title tilt.
The pay-per-view telecast will open with undefeated rising cruiserweight contender安德鲁 “野兽” Tabiti taking ontwo-time world champion 史蒂夫 “美国标准” 坎宁安 in a 10-round bout for the USBA cruiserweight title.
“What a night this will be for fight fans,” 伦纳德说Ellerbe, 梅威瑟促销的CEO. “Not only will they witness a first of its kind main event, but they will also see two incredible world title fights, as Mayweather Promotions’ very own current and former world champions go head-to-head in separate bouts. Gervonta Davis is nothing short of pure boxing talent with dynamite power. Former super middleweight world champion Badou Jack is making his light heavyweight debut, and looking to take the title away from a tough and experienced Nathan Cleverly. 但首先, 安德鲁 “野兽” Tabiti will open the pay-per-view telecast with what I expect to be a magnificent performance. This diverse card is an epic, international affair stacked with talent. Make sure you don’t miss the biggest event the sport has ever seen.”
“This undercard includes three meaningful matches featuring fighters we’ve seen develop over the years on SHOWTIME,” 斯蒂芬说埃斯皮诺萨, Executive Vice President and General Manager, SHOWTIME体育. “Gervonta Davis has fast-tracked himself to stardom on this network, we’ve seen Badou Jack develop from prospect to champion, and we’re now witnessing similar growth with Andrew Tabiti. We’re excited to watch them compete in tough, competitive matchups on this global stage.”
格文塔·戴维斯 vs. 弗朗西斯科·丰塞卡 – IBF Junior Lightweight World Championship
One of the fastest-rising young stars in the sport, 戴维斯 (18-0, 17 科斯) became the youngest reigning champion from the U.S. when he knocked out Jose Pedraza in January to capture the IBF 130-pound crown. The 22-year-old made his first title defense in style when he went to London and stopped Liam Walsh in May. Both bouts aired live on SHOWTIME. Representing Baltimore, Davis won the 2012 National Golden Gloves championship and scored knockouts in his first eight fights after turning pro in 2013. He enters this matchup on a streak of nine-straight fights that have ended with a knockout victory.
“I’m really excited to fight as the co-main event on the biggest card in combat sports history,” 戴维斯说. “I plan to put on a great show for everyone in attendance in Las Vegas and for those who purchase the PPV. I want to thank my team for this incredible opportunity. I’m ready for Floyd Mayweather to pass his torch to me. To my fans, I appreciate all of you. Support me and I’ll fight for you!”
Fighting out of San Ramon, 哥斯达黎加, 丰塞卡 (19-0-1, 13 科斯) 赢了 19 straight fights after turning pro with a majority draw in 2013. Fonseca quickly established himself as one of the top fighters from his country with victory after victory, including a fourth-round knockout of Luis Gonzlaez to capture a regional 130-pound belt last August. The 23-year-old will make his U.S. debut when he faces Davis and he enters this contest having won his last five bouts inside of the distance. Fonseca began his 2017 with a third round knockout of Eliecer Lanzas in March and is trained by two-time world champion Ivan Calderon.
“I am super grateful for this great opportunity,” said Fonseca. “The dream of every young boxer is to fight for the world title and this opportunity comes at the best moment of my career and in the biggest in the history of this sport. I will beat Gervonta Davis and I will shock the world that night.”
Nathan Cleverly vs. 八斗杰克 – WBA Light Heavyweight World Championship
A two-time world champion at light heavyweight, Cleverly (30-3, 16 科斯) bounced back from a defeat to Andrzej Fonfara in a 2015 Fight of the Year contender to defeat hometown champ Juergen Braehmer last October to pick up his WBA title. Cleverly’s previous title reign saw him take down the likes of Tony Bellew, 纳吉布·穆罕默迪（Nadjib Mohammedi）, Shawn Hawk and Tommy Karpency before dropping a contest to Sergey Kovalev. The Wales resident will make his fourth start in the U.S., having won two of his first three contests stateside.
“This is a fight I have wanted ever since Badou Jack moved to light heavyweight and I’m delighted to fight in Vegas on an event like this,” 说巧. “I’ve trained long and hard for this fight and I’m ready to be let off the leash. This is the biggest fight of my career so far and I’m going to do a number on Badou Jack on 八月 26.”
Now fighting in the 175-pound division, Jack’s final fight at 168 pounds came in a title unification on SHOWTIME in January against James DeGale. 千斤顶 (21-1-2, 12 科斯) shook off an early knockdown to floor DeGale in the final round in a close majority draw in which both fighters retained their belts. 该 2008 Olympian from Gambia won his world title in 2015 by defeating then unbeaten Anthony Dirrell and defended the belt against current champion George Groves and former champion Lucian Bute. The 33-year-old is unbeaten in his last six bouts as he seeks a world title in a second weight class.
“I’m thankful for this opportunity and I’m excited about getting another shot at a world title,” 杰克说. “To be a part of this event and fighting on this card is historic. Nothing beats it. 我很高兴能在环回. I’m getting ready to take that belt, and win a title in my second weight class. The biggest difference between past training camps and preparing for this fight is the fact that I was training to get the weight down, now I’m training to build muscle and perfect my boxing strategy. This will be a tough fight, but I don’t see any issues getting through it. I feel confident and fans can expect a win by knockout or decision. He’s not leaving with that belt. It’s staying right here in Las Vegas.”
Andrew Tabiti vs. 史蒂夫·坎宁安 – 10 Round Cruiserweight Bout
Originally from Chicago but fighting out of Las Vegas, Tabiti (14-0, 12 科斯) recorded victories against previously unbeaten fighters Keith Tapia and Quantis Graves in his last two outings – both on 的ShoBox: 新一代 – as he works to solidify himself as a contender in the red hot cruiserweight division. The 27-year-old turned pro in 2013 after amassing a solid 32-6 amateur record and scored knockout victories in his first 10 打架. He’ll battle his most experienced opponent to date when he faces the multiple-time champion Cunningham.
“I’ve always been dedicated when it comes to training and this camp has been no different,” said Tabiti. “I know I am fighting a veteran who has a lot of experience, so I can’t slack on my conditioning and training. He’s tough and he’s only been stopped once and that was when he moved up in weight to heavyweight, so it would be a big statement for me to stop him. This fight is a test for me. Anytime you get in the ring you never really know how things will pan out, but I have a great team. To the fans, expect a victory and a great fight on August 26th because I am going to make sure I come out on top.”
费城代表的伟大斗争城市, 坎宁安 (29-8-1, 13 科斯) returned to action in March with a victory over Felipe Romero after an exciting challenge of cruiserweight champion Krzysztof Glowacki in April 2016. 两次获得轻量级世界冠军, 他击败了克日什托夫·沃达尔奇克 2006 to capture his belt before successfully defending his title against Marco Huck via a twelfth-round TKO. 他成为了世界冠军再次 2010 当他停止特洛伊罗斯在第五轮. 这位经验丰富的老将还战胜了之前不败的拳手阿米尔·曼苏尔和纳图·维西尼亚，并在一场失败的比赛中击倒了泰森·富里。 2013 结束.
“This is one of the biggest cards of the decade and its mind blowing to be a part of it,” 坎宁安说. “I have to top it off with a victory. Taking on a good, undefeated young prospect is a challenge in itself, but a victory will prove age is just a number. Hard work is a part of my everyday life.”
