BROOKLYN (Julie 21, 2016) – The featherweight world championship clash between defending titlist Leo Santa Cruz and undefeated former unified super bantamweight champ Carl Frampton features an unpredictable and potentially explosive mix of styles between two of the world’s top fighters.
Santa Cruz (32-0-1, 18 Uitklophoue) will make the second defense of his WBA Featherweight Title against Irish superstar Frampton (22-0, 14 Uitklophoue), who relinquished two belts at 122 pond, when they face off in the main event of a Showtime KAMPIOENSKAP boks® tripleheader on Saterdag, Julie 30, woon op Showtime (9 namiddag. EN/6 namiddag. PT) van Barclays Center in Brooklyn.
Three-division world champion Santa Cruz ranks as one of the world’s top-three fighters in four key categories – Total Punches Thrown, Landed, Connect Percentageen Power Punches Landed (all per round, per CompuBox).
The numbers prove that Santa Cruz is one of the best punchers in the world, toppingGennadi Golovkin, Manny Pacquiao and ranking only second by a small margin to pound-for-pound champ Romeinse “Chocolatito” Gonzalez in Power Punches Landed Per Round.
More impressively, Santa Cruz ranks as the world’s best in the Plus/Minus category that was dominated for years by pound-for-pound champ Floyd Mayweather. In that statistical measure, which is determined by subtracting opponents connect percentage from a fighter’s connect percentage, Santa Cruz stands tall at No. 1 (+15.8% per fight), followed by Andre Ward (+15.3), Golovkin (+15.2), Erislandy Lara (+14.5), Terence Crawford(+13.2), Roman Gonzalez (+12.5) en Rumo Alvarez (+12).
While Santa Cruz is a statistical leader in five key categories, defending Santa Cruz’s biggest strength – krag stoot – is one of Frampton’s greatest attributes. In his last six fights, Frampton’s opponents landed just 29.2 percent of their power punches. Comparatively, Santa Cruz landed an astonishing 46.9 percent of his power shots over his last eight fights. Can both fighters continue at this impressive rate when they faceoff on Julie 30?
Frampton ranks in the top 10 van Opponents Power Punches Connected, meaning he stops his opponents from landing power shots at a staggering rate. Frampton ranks No. 10 in a group that features Guillermo Rigondeaux, Lara, Wladimir Klitschko, Ward en Crawford.
Daarbenewens, Frampton is the second best in the world in Average Number Of Jabs Thrown Per Round, behind leader Jesus Cuellar and well ahead of Rigondeaux (Moenie. 5), Golovkin (Moenie. 6), Crawford (Moenie. 7) en Kell Brook (Moenie. 8). Santa Cruz is also a statistical leader in this category, ranking No. 9 in die wêreld.
Below is the list of categories where Santa Cruz and Frampton excel:
PLUS/MINUS (hit vs. get hit):
Santa Cruz ranks as the world’s best, followed by Andre Ward (Moenie. 2), Gennadi Golovkin (Moenie. 3), Erislandy Lara (Moenie. 4), Terence Crawford (Moenie. 5), Roman Gonzalez (Moenie. 6) and Canelo Alvarez (Moenie. 7). The retired Floyd Mayweather had previously held the top spot.
TOTAL PUNCHES THROWN PER ROUND:
Leo Santa Cruz only trails Roman Gonzalez in terms of total punches thrown per round. Santa Cruz (Moenie. 2) tops Jesus Ceullar (Moenie. 3), Juan Francisco Estrada (Moenie. 6), Orlando Salido (Moenie. 7) and Gennady Golovkin (Moenie. 9). Santa Cruz throws 84.6 total punches per round, compared to boxing’s overall average of 55.5.
AVERAGE TOTAL PUNCHES LANDED PER ROUND:
Santa Cruz trails Roman Gonzalez by less than two percent, connecting at a 33.1 percent clip compared to the overall average of 16.9. At No. 2, Santa Cruz tops pound-for-pound mainstays Gennady Golovkin (Moenie. 3) and Juan Francisco Estrada (Moenie. 4). Santa Cruz’s average more than doubles the CompuBox average punches landed per round of 16.9.
TOTAL CONNECT PERCENTAGE:
Santa Cruz ranks in the top three in this important category in which only a few percentage points separate the world’s best. Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. ranks No. 1, followed by Golovkin, Santa Cruz, Roman Gonzalez, Adrien Broner and Andre Ward respectively. Op 39.2 persent, Santa Cruz landed at a nearly 10 percent higher rate than the overall average.

Hier is wat die deelnemers het om te sê Dinsdag:
LEO SANTA CRUZ
“My dream is to be the next big thing in boxing. We’re going to work hard every day in the gym, learn from our mistakes and improve so I can be the best fighter out there. With the help of the fans and the media I think I can accomplish that.
“He has great skills, great punches and he moves very well. It’s going to be a tough fight for me but I’m going to work hard to defend my belt.
“I see Frampton as someone trying to come and take away everything I worked hard for. I can’t let that happen. I’m going to do what I have to do to get the win.
“He’s a very skilled fighter. He has great power and I think it’s going to be an exciting fight. These are the kind of guys I want to fight. It gives me even more motivation to get in the gym and train hard.
“I’ve known Mikey Garcia from the amateur days and our families have sparred with each other. I’ve even trained with Robert Garcia before. To see another great Mexican fighter go over to New York is very exciting. I’m very happy for him. He’s a great guy and a great fighter.
“I think Frampton will keep his power up the weight classes. He couldn’t make 122-pounds anymore and he’s said that he will be even stronger this time. That’s good. That’s what I want. I want him to feel good so it’ll be a tough and entertaining fight.
“I can’t let him come over to the U.S. and get this win. We’re going to go out there and see if he can bring the best out of me. I’m going to be one-hundred percent ready.
“I’m comfortable at 126-pounds. I want to get this win against Carl Frampton and then unify against Gary Russell Jr., Lee Selby or any of the champions. When my body is ready we’ll move up in weight to seek another world title.
“When I first started boxing all I ever thought about was being a world champion one time. Then after I got there I started pushing my goals. If I continue to keep learning and improve as a fighter, I could go all the way up to 140-pounds.
“I’m thrilled to be fighting in New York. It’s going to be my first time out there. I’m excited to meet new fans. The people who have wished I would fight in New York will get to see me. There are people that don’t know me and this my opportunity to be impressive and put on a show for them.”
Mikey GARCIA
“I’m a well-rounded fighter. I can adjust to just about any style. I get a lot of diverse sparring so that I can adjust to anything Rojas might bring. Training camp has been going very well and I think it’s going to be a good night for me.
“I’ve seen Rojas before. I saw him when he was champion. He’s a good fighter with a lot of experience. He can definitely box and has a good right hand. He lost his title to a great champion. He’s very skilled and experience.
“Both of us are boxers and we tend to try to work from a distance. This time I may have to look for the fight a bit more and apply some pressure. If he tries to box around, I’ll find him. I think my power will eventually be the difference and I’ll break him down.
“I don’t believe there will be ring rust because I was never really outside of the ring. I’ve been in the gym the whole time, sparring and training. I would spar 10 of 12 rondes, just to do it. Not because I had a fight, but just to keep me active. I know it seems like a long time, but I don’t really see it. I feel like I was gone six months.
“I want to fight at 135 and fight for a title there. I’m going to see how my body feels after this fight, but that’s the plan as of now. We’re not looking past Elio. I definitely want to get back in the ring soon if everything goes right.
“I have no regrets. I’ve got to enjoy myself more than I had in the last 10 jaar. When you’re in boxing, it’s a year round sport. You don’t have time to yourself, for your family or friends. You miss out on a lot. I learned a lot in my time away about boxing and more.
“This will end up being about a seven-week training camp, but even prior to that I’ve been staying in the gym. I don’t feel any different. I feel one-hundred percent. My body is well-rested which makes me hungrier and more motivated.
“I’ve fought in New York before and it’s always been a great and very supportive crowd. I was at Barclays Center for the first time on June 25 for Thurman-Porter and it was a great arena. It had great energy and I can’t wait to fight there. I can’t wait to fight at Barclays.
“It’s great to be in the gym with all these different types of fighters that my brother trains. I have a lot of very intense sparring. I’ve gotten a chance to really learn from the different styles and it definitely helps me.”
IVAN REDKACH
“This is an excellent fight for me. I’m closing in to a title shot and I’m going to be ready on Julie 30.
“I have a plan for this fight. You’ll see it in the ring. I’m going to make this an exciting fight.
“A title fight is my motivation but my focus in fully on Julie 30. Everything I’ve done is to lead up to a world title fight.
“I know that my opponent is slick and very fast. He’s a good boxer but we’ll see what he brings to the ring.
“This is my first camp with Leo Santa Cruz and his team and it’s been going very well. I feel very prepared to fight.”
ANTONIO SANTA CRUZ, Leo’s Brother & Trainer
“This camp feels very close to the same as usual. My pa (Jose) is usually the one who tells us what to do. I’m in the ring with Leo but he’s still there. He is sick but he is still going to the gym. He wants to be there for Leo.
“Frampton is a good fighter. He’s going to give my brother a good fight. Short guys are tougher for Leo so we’re making sure we have sparring with fighters of all heights. Frampton won’t be hard to get inside but his height could pose a problem.
“It’s a little bit more pressure on me. I’m trying to show my father that I can learn and help Leo be at his best. I think he’s going to have a great night.”
JOSE SANTA CRUZ, Leo’s Father & Trainer
“Ek voel goed. Right now I’m going to the gym every day. Leo looks good in the ring and is training very well.
“Little by little Antonio is learning and even I’m still learning. We’re both getting better as trainers and that is our goal, to be great. I feel the love from my sons and I love them a lot too. I’m proud of them and I’m proud that they are my sons.
“Leo is very calm. I don’t think Leo is going to be affected by traveling to New York. Even if he doesn’t have the majority of the fans, I don’t think it will affect him.
“You never know how it’s going to go on fight night. You can prepare in the gym, but sometimes, once you’re up in the ring, a fight can get complicated.
“Even if I can’t make it to New York, I’m going to watch the fight. Even if it’s with one eye open, I’m going to watch.”
ROBERT GARCIA, Mikey’s Brother & Trainer
“Mikey definitely wants to win a title at 135-pounds. There are some good champions out there but not necessarily a huge name. Eventually Mikey would want to go up to 140-pounds where I believe there are a lot of exciting fights that could be made.
“Elio is a fighter that has been off for a while and he’s a former world champion. He’s also trying to come back and make a statement. We have to be prepared for the opponent to be at the top of his game.
“Now that he’s got a date and with the training and sparring, Mikey has been looking really good. It’s been a while. We might see a little bit of rust, a little bit of adjustment to timing. But the way he’s been in the gym, against top quality fighters, he’s been looking so good that I wouldn’t be surprised if he put on one of his best performances.”

Hier is wat die deelnemers het om te sê Donderdag:
CARL Frampton
“I want to be in exciting fights. From here on in my career, Ek wil groot wees. Who better to face than Leo Santa Cruz? This is a chance to put my name down in history and become a two-weight world champion from Ireland.
“I’ve been listening to Barry McGuigan since I turned professional. I just wanted to soak all of it up like a sponge. He’s got so much knowledge and he’s been around for so many years. I just need to be around him and learn. Shane does an amazing job training me, and between the two of them, I feel like I’m benefitting every day.
“It’s very nice to be here in Brooklyn, it’s a lovely borough and it’s so great to be here in New York. There are a lot of boxing fans in New York and I really think this is the number one city for boxing.
“We’re bringing a lot of lads from back home, and I also hope the Irish-Americans get to know my name, and everyone in Brooklyn as well. I expect about 1,500 traveling fans from Belfast. I think I’ll have more support than Santa Cruz.
“This fight is huge for me because I really want to create a legacy. I know how people talk, and I think people will be talking about this for a very long time. I want people to remember me as a great fighter, that’s all.
“I train very hard for every fight. No less or no more for Santa Cruz. We’re expecting a very tough fight with a lot of action.
“The last time I was an underdog was the Irish championships, when I was an amateur. You could have got me at 11:2, I was a massive underdog. I dropped him pretty early on, so the last time I was an underdog, a lot of people who knew me made a lot of money. It’s going to be the same result this time.
“Beweeg tot 126 pounds was definitely the right decision for me. I’m a big puncher but I lost power coming down to 122 pond. I’m going to be punching harder and be at my very best.
“I’m right on the door step of everything. I’m so excited for fight night, it’s going to be a truly special experience.
“It’s important to be recognized in the States. This is where all of the great fighters from around the world end up fighting, and I really want to be recognized as a great fighter.”
Paulie Malignaggi
“I think my fight with Bracero is an interesting clash of styles. We have similar styles in that we like to box and counter punch but we’re also both very familiar with each other. I’m sure he’ll have something up his sleeve for me.
“Making this kind of all-Brooklyn fight is great for the fans. We both have our own followings so it should make for an electric atmosphere at Barclays Center.
“The main event is going to be a great fight. When you look at the styles and the pedigrees of both men, it’s hard to predict what’s going to happen. Both guys have exciting styles so I’m betting on the fans getting their money’s worth.”
BARRY McGuigan, Frampton se Bestuurder, Voormalige wêreldkampioen & Hall of Famer
“After Carl defeated Scott Quigg and became a unified champion at 122 pond, we believe that all of the exciting fights in that division have passed. We want to be involved in exciting fights.
“The Quigg fight wasn’t as exciting as we would have liked, but we knew it was going to be like that. We knew he’d come on late in the fight and we had our tactics planned well. This is going to be a much better fight because Santa Cruz is brave and takes chances. He also has underrated boxing skills.
“Shane is making Carl a better fighter every day. Every day that you don’t get better is a day you wasted. Carl is in the best physical shape of his career and we will have a plan A, B and C for this fight.
“Santa Cruz is a great fighter. He’s low-key, humble and he hasn’t talked trash. This will be Carl’s hardest fight. It feels great to be involved helping Carl reach his maximum potential, it’s the second best thing to being in the ring yourself.
“We believe 100 percent in Frampton’s ability to win this fight and that he will be successful on fight night.
“There are some great fights out there for Carl. We’re 100 percent committed to Julie 30 but there are lots of great fights in the featherweight division. We will have lots of support on fight night and I have no doubt there will be a large Irish crowd there to support Carl.”
SHANE McGuigan, Frampton se Trainer
“Leo Santa Cruz is unbeaten and there aren’t really any weaknesses from my perspective. He’s a phenomenal fighter, but I don’t believe he’s fought a fighter of Carl Frampton’s caliber, as an all-around fighter.
“When he meets someone who is as good, or in my opinion, better than him, we’ll see what he’s made of. I think it’s going to make for one of the most exciting fights of the year.
“I wouldn’t be taking on this fight it I wasn’t extremely confident in Carl, even though he’s coming in as the underdog. I don’t think Santa Cruz has ever felt the power that Carl brings before. I think Carl can beat him comfortably if he continues to prepare well, and then steps into the ring and does what he’s capable of doing.
“We’re finishing up camp now and making sure we’re 100 percent read. We have to be 100 percent to fight Leo Santa Cruz.
“Carl is extremely heavy-handed. He’s extremely skillful, a true all-rounder. He really lives the life, and that makes it easy for me. The way he trains, how he eats, how he sleeps: he takes it seriously and takes care of himself.
“The transition coming over to New York to finish training camp has been great. We could have waited until closer to fight night but we want every single percent to our advantage.
“We’re still acclimatizing to the heat, the jet lag is no problem and we’re going to be ready on fight night.
“This fight is history in the making. It’s a fight that can really put Carl on the map. It’s always a huge opportunity when you’re fighting for a title, against someone of Santa Cruz’s caliber.”

The 10-round bout is a matchup between a former two-division world champion, Malignaggi, and a fellow Brooklyn native, Bracero, coming off the biggest win of his career when he knocked out Danny O'Connor verlede Oktober.

 

A 10-round clash between once-beaten lightweight Ivan Redkach and streaking Tevin Farmer, 'n wenner van 14 straight, will open the SHOWTIME EXTREME telecast live at 7 namiddag. EN/PT.

 

Die Julie 30 event at Barclays Center comes on the heels of last Saturday’s potential Fight of the Year thriller between Keith Thurman en Shawn Porter, a back-and-forth slugfest that generated the top grossing live gate and second-highest attended boxing event in venue history.

 

“This is the strongest card from top to bottom that I have promoted at Barclays Center,” said DiBella Entertainment President Lou DiBella. “Every single fight is significant and competitive, and this is a great follow up from the tremendous success that boxing had with Thurman-Porter this past weekend.”

 

“This will be our 19ste boxing event, but from top to bottom it’s arguably our best card yet,” said Brooklyn Sports & Entertainment CEO Brett Yormark. “We are excited to welcome undefeated Santa Cruz and Frampton to Brooklyn for the first time, a fight that could rival Barclays Center’s epic Thurman-Porter bout for Fight of the Year. It’s also a pleasure to welcome Brooklyn’s own Paulie Malignaggi back to Barclays Center for the fifth time and to host the return of Mikey Garcia after a two and a half year hiatus. Julie 30 is going to be another big night for BROOKLYN BOXING.”

 

“We are excited to be part of Mikey Garcia’s return to the ring. Before the layoff, he was a two-division world champion and considered one of the top boxers in the world. We know he is determined to reclaim his place among the elite,"Sê Stephen Espinoza, Uitvoerende vise-president & Algemene Bestuurder, Showtime Sport. “SHOWTIME has distinguished itself by delivering the most compelling matchups and the most important events in boxing all year long. There is no other network as committed to the sport, en die Julie 30 gebeurtenis, from top-to-bottom, is a prime example.”

 

Mikey GARCIA vs. ELIO ROJAS

“I expect to pick up right where I left off,” Garcia told SHOWTIME Sports reporter Jim Gray last Saturday on CBS. “I was a world champion, I was undefeated, and I still am. I didn’t leave because I was injured. I think I’ll come back even better. I’m hungrier now than I was before.

 

“I just have to get one fight in. This first fight with Elio (Rojas) will be somewhere between 135 en 140 pond, but I want to fight at 135 and win a title there. I want to win a title there and keep going after champion after champion. Now that all that (uncertainty) is behind me I look forward to the next stage of my career. This next stage of my career will be what people remember me for.”

 

“Mikey Garcia is a great fighter,” Rojas said. “I want to thank him for this opportunity. We are both former WBC World Champions and I expect a great fight. Egter, all of the talk surrounding this fight has been about Mikey’s comeback and his future plans. I am no tune-up. This is also about me coming back and fighting again. He may be looking past me, but I am fully focused on him and securing the victory. I will do whatever I have to do to win, so I can move on and regain my world championship.”

 

Garcia (34-0, 28 Uitklophoue), van Ventura, Kalifornië., is 28-years-old and in the prime of his career. Once considered one of the top young boxers pound-for-pound in the world, he will make his first ring appearance since he retained the WBO 130-pound title with a 12-round unanimous decision overJuan Carlos Burgos Jan. 25, 2014. Garcia, the brother of renowned trainer Robert Garcia, has been victorious by knockout in 10 van sy laaste 12 fights and holds impressive victories overRoman “Rocky” Martinez, Juan Manuel Lopez, Orlando Salido en Bernabe Concepcion.

 

Rojas (24-2, 14 Uitklophoue), of San Francisco de Macoris, Dominikaanse Republiek, won the WBC featherweight world championship in 2009 with a 12-round unanimous decision over defending titleholder Takahiro Ao in Japan. The 33-year-old successfully defended the title against Guty Espadas Jr. in 2010, before losing the belt via unanimous decision to Jhonny Gonzalez in April 2012. Since the loss to Gonzalez, Rojas moved up to lightweight, waar hy verslaan Robert Osiobe in Augustus 2014.

 

TONY HARRISON vs. SERGEY RABCHENKO:

“I’m thrilled to return to the ring on this big stage for my first fight in Brooklyn, and I’m ready to put on a show,” said Harrison. “Fighting for a world title is my dream and I know that I have a challenge in front of me. I’m working hard in camp to get another knockout and to make my mark on the division.”

 

“This is the start of realizing my dream,” Rabchenko said. “America is the Mecca of boxing so it is a huge privilege for me to be asked to fight there. American fans like to see knockouts and I like to knock people out so I think they will like what they see. I think I can build a fan base there. I am hungrier than ever. I have not seen much of Harrison, but I am ready for anyone. People say he is a very good fighter with good power. I’m not worried. I have good power as well and I think I will have too much for him.”

 

Op net 25-jaar-oue, Harrison (23-1, 19 Uitklophoue) has showed tremendous promise. He manufactured a 10-fight knockout streak from 2013 te 2015 and proved he could recover from a loss when he dominated Cecil McCalla vir 10 rounds in October 2015 en gestop Fernando Warrior in impressive fashion in March.

 

Fighting out of Belaraus, Rabchenko (27-1, 20 Uitklophoue) is looking to put himself squarely into world title contention when he makes his U.S. debuut op Julie 30. The 30-year-old is coming off stoppage victories over Walter Calvo Mei 2015 and Miguel Aguilar in February.

 

Showtime EXTREME:

 

PAULIE MALIGNAGGI vs. GABRIEL BRACERO:

“I feel truly blessed to have yet another opportunity to fight in Brooklyn,” Malignaggi said. “I have known Tito a long time and I know he always comes to fight. We will give the Brooklyn fans a great appetizer before the terrific main event later that night in Barclays Center.”

 

“I’m looking to make a statement by winning this fight,” said Bracero. “Paulie and I have been friends since the amateurs and I’m thankful to have this opportunity, but he’s had his run. Now it’s time for me to have mine. This fight is going to change my life.”

 

'N Voormalige wêreldkampioen by 140 en 147-pond, the 35-year-old Malignaggi (35-7, 7 Uitklophoue) will return to the ring to fight at Barclays Center for the fifth time. He has faced a slew of big names throughout his career and has been victorious over the likes of Zab Juda, Vyacheslav Senchenko en Pablo Cesar Cano. Gebore en getoë in die omgewing van Brooklyn Bensonhurst, “The Magic Man” was victorious twice fighting in his birth country of Italy last year after unsuccessfully challenging unbeaten Danny Garcia in Augustus.

 

Another Brooklyn-native, Bracero (24-2, 5 Uitklophoue) comes off of a sensational one-punch knockout of rival Danny O'Connor in their rematch last October. The 35-year-old owns victories over Dmitri Salita en Pavel Miranda in addition to his first triumph over the previously unbeaten O’Connor in 2011.

 

IVAN REDKACH vs. TEVIN FARMER:

“I am extremely happy to be back in the ring on a big show in New York,” Redkach said. “There are so many Ukrainian fans in New York and I am thrilled to have their support and will put on a great show for them. I want to thank Leo Santa Cruz and his team for having me in their camp as we both prepare ourselves to put on tremendous performances come Julie 30."

 

“I couldn’t be more excited about this fight,” Farmer said. “This is my Barclays Center debut and it is going to be a spectacular performance. I have called out anyone and everyone in the 130- pound division to no avail, so now I’m moving up to 135 to take on Redkach, one of the most feared punchers in the division. Redkach is an aggressive guy and I know he is coming to fight, but there is no way I leave that ring without my hand being raised. This is a fight where I can and I will make a major statement. I’m willing to fight whoever they put in front of me to inch closer to a world title opportunity and Julie 30 is another step in that direction. I tip my hat off to Redkach for giving me this fight, but this is my time to shine.”

 

Gebore in die Oekraïne, maar veg uit Los Angeles, REDK (19-1-1, 15 Uitklophoue) began boxing at the age of six and has put together an impressive career since turning pro in 2009. The 30-year-old owns victories over Tony Luis, Sergey Gulyakevich en Yakubu Amidu. Mees onlangs, Redkach knocked out Erick Daniel Martinez in Oktober 2015 and fought to a draw with Luis Cruz in April.

 

Representing the fighting city of Philadelphia, Farmer (24-1-1, 5 Uitklophoue) gewen het 14 bouts in a row since losing to unbeaten world champion Jose Pedraza in 2012. The 25-year-old has come on strong in recent years, upsetting previously unbeaten fighters such as Emmanuel Gonzalez, Angel Luna en Camilo Perez.

“Ek het gewerk op daardie punch vir ses weke,” Bracero said after the fight. “In my laaste stryd, I fought a southpaw and made some mistakes. I specifically worked on that punch because Danny’s a southpaw. I slipped to the side and threw the right. This was the first time I went away to camp, weg van my familie.
“Ek is net so nederig en dankbaar. Ek het geweet hier kom in dat al die druk op hom was (O'Connor); die skare sou probeer om die dier uit te neem van my en het my op die verdediging.
Alles gaan om uit te werk (aangaande sy volgende geveg). I’ll let Tommy Gallagher enLou DiBella take care of my next fight. I’m ready to go right back in the gym.”
O'Connor is per ambulans na die nabygeleë Lowell Algemene Hospitaal vir waarneming.
Tuisdorp held “Ierse” Micky Ward en die Nasionale Hokkie League Hall-of-Famer NBCSN ontleder “Sugar” Ray Leonard terug na dieselfde gebou waarin vasgevang hy 'n Nasionale Golden Gloves toernooi titel in 1973.

Guzman gedaal Aquino, 'n Mexikaanse moedertaal veg uit Connecticut, in die tweede ronde. The badly hurt Aquino, egter, lasted until the ninth round when Guzman ended the show with a brutal left hook. Aquino, 'n ander New England Golden Gloves kampioen wat sy titel in hierdie baie gebou het, het nog nooit opgehou as 'n professionele.
Quincy (MA) veergewigtitel Ryan “Die Poolse Prince” Kielczweski (24-1, 7 Uitklophoue), wat twee New England Golden Gloves kampioenskappe by Lowell Memorial Ouditorium gewen, het 'n 10-ronde, hard geveg besluit oor Brooklyn se Rafael “Dinamiet” Vazquez (16-2, 13 Uitklophoue).

Fighter KWOTASIES
GABRIEL BRACERO:
“God seën Danny O'Connor. Hy is 'n kampioen. Net omdat hy vandag verloor hier, Ek het nog tip my hoed af vir hom. Dit neem 'n ware kampioen hier in te kom en te doen wat hy doen. Ek wens hom die beste.
“Dit is 'n ongelooflike gevoel. Die waarheid is, Ek was 'n wenner voor ek gewandel in die ring. Dit is 'n droom wat waar geword. Ek het gedroom oor hierdie dag vir 'n lang tyd. Ek het 'n paar foute in my vorige gevegte, maar ek gaan terug na die tekenbord, het na die kamp, vaste my foute en het in vandag hier super gefokus.
Oor wat hy gesê O'Connor na die stryd…
“My boodskap aan Danny was, ná my laaste stryd, ná my laaste verlies, Ek was af. Ek het deur 'n depressie. Ek het vir hom gesê om nie te laat gebeur om hom te. Om homself terug te haal, trots op homself te wees. Huis toe gaan om sy pragtige vrou en kinders en geniet die lewe. Ek wou nie dieselfde ding gebeur met hom, wat met my gebeur.”
JONATHAN GUZMAN:
“Ek het bewys dat ek kan veg en ek kan punch. Hierdie stryd was 'n voorbeeld van wat ek kan doen.
“Vanaf die tweede ronde geveg ek met twee hande seer. Dit maak nie saak aan my hande, Ek gaan om hom te stop.”
RYAN KIELCZWESKI:
“Voor hierdie stryd, Ek het geweet hy kon pons. Ek het gedink ek vermy dit vir die hele stryd, maar in die 10 ronde, Hy het my. Dit het gevoel redelik goed om ontslae geruk vir die eerste keer, net om te weet hoe dit voel.”
“Ek soort van begin stadig af, maar in die middel rondes, Ek het begin om my stoot saam, gooi vier, vyf, ses houe op 'n tyd, en dit is besig. Maar hy het terug gekom en elke keer begin handel met my.
(Aan die gang 10 rondes…)
“Dit is almal dieselfde. Jy is net so moeg na 'n vier-round stryd as jy na ses, eight or 10. You leave it all till the end of the fight. Dit het alles voel dieselfde.
(Op seerkry in die 10….)
“Ek het nie geweet waar my voete was. Dit was 'n vreemde gevoel, Ek het geen idee gehad wat dit voel soos. Hy het my en ek kon sien reguit, maar ek het gevoel myself gaan links en regs.
“He’s a tough guy. I really needed that fight.
“We knew he wasn’t much of a volume pincher. It didn’t surprise us when he came on in the middle rounds.
“Die bloed was nie in my oog. Ek het nie geweet ek is gesny totdat die skeidsregter oor gekom.
“I like to entertain in the ring. I don’t need to do this. I do it because I like to fight and entertain.
“This was my favorite venue to fight in as an amateur. I fought here 10-15 keer as 'n amateur.”
RAFAEL Vazquez:
“Hy was 'n gladde vegter, Hy verhuis en hy het baie mag gehad. Hy was in 'n groot vorm. Hy is jong, Ek sal 38 hierdie jaar. Geen verskoning, Ek verhuis na 126 pond hom in die gesig staar, Ek is 122 pond.
“Ek het gedink ek het die laaste drie rondes. Veral die negende en tiende ronde. Die tiende rondte was groot. Hy verbind miskien tien houe in die hele ronde. Ek het hom geskud. Ek het hom seergemaak. Maar, ons veg in sy tuisdorp, en ek is dankbaar vir hom vir my die geleentheid gee.”

Kyk hier wat die deelnemers te sê gehad het Woensdag:
DANNY PUMPKINS
“Dit is alles oor my veg die proses. Gabriel Bracero beat me but I really beat myself. Just like training for this fight, we had a baby son. Two weeks before our first fight, my first son was born and I didn’t know how to separate sport from such life-changing events. Ek was 14-0 en veg op Showtime. We just had a baby boy two weeks before this fight. I want to prove to myself that I can beat this process. Bracero is my redemption!
“Hierdie stryd is my vs. my. The time was right for this fight. I was offered this fight five times during the past few years but the time wasn’t right.
“I was a scared little kid with no experience in our first fight. I couldn’t handle the pressure, I didn’t even know it was there. Nou, I’m a mature man who is a husband and father. I’m a totally different person.
“This fight could be in my living room. I’m at peace in the ring doing what I love to do. It’s great being back in the ring in Lowell, waar ek het die New England Golden Gloves titel en ek veg op die nasionale TV, maar die geval is tussen die vier hoeke en dit is wat regtig tel.”
GABRIEL BRACERO
“Ek is opgewonde. I’ve trained for this fight like I’ve never fought Danny before. I beat him but that was four years ago. I can’t overlook him. He has obviously made improvements and I did also to get where we are today.
“Ek is meer ervare. I moved to train in Orlando and get away from distractions. I hit a few bumps and got incarcerated. Tommy Gallagher (afrigter) saved my lie. He was there when I went to prison and there when I got out. I added a new trainer to our corner, Alexander Lopes, maar Tommy en my pa, Kiro, are still there. Tommy gives the orders and he likes what Lopez has done with me.
“Tommy Gallagher is my guardian angel. He believed in me more than I believed in myself. He had this vision before I did.
“Danny has become a better fighter. Ek kan niks wegneem van hom, maar ek sien uit daarna om om op 'n skouspelagtige vertoning Saterdag nag.”
JONATHAN GUZMAN
“Ek gaan om te maak dit 20-vir-20, Ja! I’m powerful because I make strong moves. My left hook is my best punch. Ek kan die krag deur my hele liggaam voel wanneer ek getref iemand reg.
“Ek is nie bekommerd oor my opponent of wat hy gedoen het in die verlede.
“Lawrence is my home now. I will go back to the Dominican Republic in December for the holidays. I feel like a Bostonian. This is the sixth fight I’ve trained here for and I love the Boston Red Sox.”
DANNY Aquino
“My laaste stryd aangedryf my (ontstel deur 'n besluit oor Ryan Kielczweski). It made me more confident in myself. My laaste stryd was op ESPN en hierdie een is op NBCSN.
“I don’t know too much about my opponent other than he has power that I’ll be looking out for. A win over him should put me in the top 10 en dit is hoekom ek so gemotiveerd vir hierdie stryd.
“Ek het die New England Golden Gloves-kampioenskap in Lowell Memorial ouditorium in 2007.
“Ek oefen hard en ek is altyd in 'n goeie genoeg vorm aan enigiemand te klop.”
RYAN KIELCZWESKI
“I like fighting at home and this is one of my favorite venues. I won the New England Golden Gloves there twice.
“Ek het opgelei vir hierdie die moeilikste stryd van my loopbaan wees.
“(Vasquez) is tough with a lot of power. He’s going come forward, maar ek sal in staat wees om uit te-Box hom.
“Hy is in die top gegradeerde 10 van die wêreld en 'n oorwinning moet my terug te sit in die top 10 veg vir 'n wêreld titel binne die volgende jaar.”
RAFAEL Vasquez
“Dit is 'n groot geleentheid vir my. I think this fight will put me on the map fighting on national TV and showing fans what I’ve got.
“Ek is 'n honger, small fighter determined to win. I fight for my wife, Sandra, wat stadium vier kanker en my agt-jarige dogter, Kaline, who has autism. It’s not just me fighting in the ring, it’s the Vasquez family. With God’s grace, enigiets is moontlik.
“Ryan beweeg 'n baie. He uses the ring and boxes. He lost to Aquino and I know he’ll be coming back to prove himself. “
GARY “SPIKE” O'SULLIVAN
“Boston is my second home. I love it here. The people are so nice and there are good gyms.
“Ek is 'n opwindende, vermaaklike vegter wat altyd kom om te veg.
“Nadat ek af Eubanks, Ek sal die No. 1 aanspraakmaker in die WBA en Golovkin kan hou nie my af nie langer.
“I watched a few clips of my opponent. We have identical records. We both knock people out, so I have to be careful. I’d like to get in a few rounds, maar toe ek die mense, hulle val.”
STEPHEN ORMOND
“My first four fights were here in the US. Boston is like my second home. The people are so nice. Boston is a real fight city. I can’t wait for these people to see me in the ring.
“I saw my opponent fight last year in Boston. He’s an experienced guy with a lot of fights. He fought for a world title a long time ago.

Boston vs. New York is 'n klassieke matchup wat oorheers sport nuus in die noordooste vir die jaar as die New York Yankees en Boston Red Sox gevoer talle oorloë terwyl die New England Patriots gekonfronteer die New York Giants in twee Super Bowls en het voortgegaan om hul jarelange wedywering met die nuwe York Jets. Die ryk tradisie van hierdie wedywering het ook oorgespoel na die ring soveel top vegters van elke streek in die gesig gestaar-off oor die jare.
Die eerste beduidende Boston vs. NYC stryd gaan terug na 1927 Yankee Stadium, wanneer Jack Dempsey gestop Jack “Die Boston Gob” Sharkey in die sewende ronde van hul swaargewig titel eliminator om wêreldkampioen te daag Gene Tunney. Controversy surrounded this fight as Sharkey, 'n matroos in die U.S. Navy, geveg sy boks idol, Dempsey, wat saam met Babe Ruth ruled Manhattan during America’s Golden Age of Sports in the 1920s. Sharkey out-boxed Dempsey for six rounds until, kla by die skeidsregter oor Dempsey se lae stoot, hy uitgeslaan koue met 'n foto-perfekte links haak.
Nog legendariese swaargewigkampioen van die Boston area, Rocky Marciano, sou nie afgetree met sy beroemde 49-0 record if one round or another were scored differently against Bronx favorite Roland LaStarza in 1950. Marciano took a questionable 10-round decision from LaStarza at Madison Square Garden. Drie jaar later by die Polo Gronde, Marciano suksesvol verdedig sy wêreld titel, klop LaStarza in die 11steronde van hul 1953 Stryd van die Jaar.
'N paar van Hall of Fame swaargewigte van Brooklyn, Floyd Patterson en “Yster” Mike Tyson, onderskeidelik, uitgeslaan Boston se Tom McNeeley en sy seun, Peter McNeeley. McNeeley dropped Patterson once but he hit the deck 11 keer voordat uiteindelik toegee in die vierde ronde van hul 1961 title fight in Toronto. His son, Peter, verloor deur die eerste ronde diskwalifikasie om Tyson wat veg vir die eerste sedert hy uit die tronk vrygelaat.
'N Brandweerman van Boston met bros hande, Paul Pender, twee keer verslaan waarskynlik die konsensus grootste van alle-time, Harlem se “Sugar” Ray Robinson, nie een keer, maar twee keer deur 15-ronde verdeel besluite in 1960 wêreld middelgewigtitel veg by die Boston Tuin.
“Wonderlike” Marvin Hagler, 'n oorgeplant New Jersey vegter wat in Marciano se tuisdorp van Brockton geleef, Massa., voel afgeruk toe hy was 'n trekking in sy eerste wêreldtitel stryd teen Brooklyn se verdedigende kampioen Vito Antuofermo in Las Vegas. Twee jaar later in 1981, Hagler gevang die gesogte kroon op die Boston Tuin as Antuofermo afgetree ná vier rondes.
Selfs Lowell se “Ierse” Micky Ward het 'n New York City mededinger in Brooklyn se Zab Juda, who he dropped a hard-fought 12-round decision to in 1998. For many years Judah said Ward was the toughest opponent he ever fought.
Meer onlangs, Ierse Olimpiese Kevin McBride, veg uit die artikel Dorchester van Boston, geëindig loopbaan Tyson se 2005 met 'n sesde ronde TKO oorwinning wat die wêreld verlaat boks in skok, en Boston swaargewig John Ruiz – die enigste Latino swaargewigkampioen van die wêreld – het 'n 2008 veg in Mexiko teen Harlem se Jameel McCline 12-ronde besluit in 'n wêreld titel eliminator.
