Això és el que els participants havien de dir Dimarts:
LEO SANTA CREU
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 o 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 any. 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 Juliol 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 Juliol 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 & Entrenador
This camp feels very close to the same as usual. El meu pare (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 CREU, Leo’s Father & Entrenador
“Em sento bé. 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 & Entrenador
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.

Això és el que els participants havien de dir Dijous:
CARL Frampton
I want to be in exciting fights. From here on in my career, Vull ser gran. 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.
“Moure fins 126 pounds was definitely the right decision for me. I’m a big puncher but I lost power coming down to 122 lliura. 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, Gerent de Frampton, L'ex Campió del Món & Saló de la Fama
After Carl defeated Scott Quigg and became a unified champion at 122 lliura, 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 Juliol 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, Entrenador de Frampton
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.

A 10-round clash between once-beaten lightweight Ivan Redkach and streaking Tevin Farmer, un guanyador de 14 straight, will open the SHOWTIME EXTREME telecast live at 7 p.m. I/PT.

 

La Juliol 30 event at Barclays Center comes on the heels of last Saturday’s potential Fight of the Year thriller between Keith Thurman i 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 19º esdeveniment de boxa, 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. Juliol 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,", Va dir Stephen Espinoza, Vicepresident Executiu & Gerent General, SHOWTIME Sports. “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, i la Juliol 30 esdeveniment, 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 i 140 lliura, 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. No obstant això, 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.”

 

García (34-0, 28 KOs), de Ventura, Qualif., 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 el gen. 25, 2014. García, the brother of renowned trainer Robert García, has been victorious by knockout in 10 del seu passat 12 fights and holds impressive victories overRoman “Rocky” Martinez, Juan Manuel Lopez, Orlando Salido i Bernabe Concepcion.

 

Rojas (24-2, 14 KOs), of San Francisco de Macoris, República Dominicana, won the WBC featherweight world championship in 2009 with a 12-round unanimous decision over defending titleholder Takahiro Ao al Japó. The 33-year-old successfully defended the title against Guty Espadas Jr. a 2010, before losing the belt via unanimous decision to Jhonny González a l'abril 2012. Since the loss to Gonzalez, Rojas moved up to lightweight, on va derrotar Robert Osiobe a l'agost 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.”

 

Amb tan sols 25 anys d'edat, Harrison (23-1, 19 KOs) has showed tremendous promise. He manufactured a 10-fight knockout streak from 2013 a 2015 and proved he could recover from a loss when he dominated Cecil McCalla per 10 rounds in October 2015 i es va aturar Fernando Guerrero in impressive fashion in March.

 

Fighting out of Belaraus, Rabchenko (27-1, 20 KOs) is looking to put himself squarely into world title contention when he makes his U.S. debutar a Juliol 30. The 30-year-old is coming off stoppage victories over Walter Calvo al maig 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.”

 

Un excampió del món en 140 i 147 lliures-, the 35-year-old Malignaggi (35-7, 7 KOs) 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 Judah, Vyacheslav Senchenko i Pablo Cesar Cano. Nascut i criat al barri de Bensonhurst de Brooklyn, “The Magic Man” was victorious twice fighting in his birth country of Italy last year after unsuccessfully challenging unbeaten Danny García a l'agost.

 

Another Brooklyn-native, Bracero (24-2, 5 KOs) 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 Dmitry Saleta i 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 Juliol 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 Juliol 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.”

 

Nascut a Ucraïna, però lluitant fora de Los Angeles, REDK (19-1-1, 15 KOs) 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 i Yakubu Amidu. Més recentment, Redkach knocked out Erick Daniel Martinez a l'octubre 2015 and fought to a draw with Luis Cruz a l'abril.

 

Representing the fighting city of Philadelphia, Farmer (24-1-1, 5 KOs) ha guanyat 14 bouts in a row since losing to unbeaten world champion Jose Pedraza a 2012. The 25-year-old has come on strong in recent years, upsetting previously unbeaten fighters such as Emmanuel Gonzalez, Angel Luna i Camilo Pérez. Farmer dominated veteran Gamaliel Díaz in March and will make his Barclays Center debut on Juliol 30.

“Vaig treballar en aquest cop durant sis setmanes,” Bracero said after the fight. “En la meva última baralla, 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, lluny de la meva família.
“Estic molt honrat i agraït. Jo sabia que venia aquí que tota la pressió estava sobre ell (O'Connor); la multitud tractava de prendre la bèstia fora de mi i em va posar en la defensa.
Tot funcionarà (pel que fa a la seva pròxima baralla). I’ll let Tommy Gallagher iLou DiBella take care of my next fight. I’m ready to go right back in the gym.
O'Connor va ser traslladat en ambulància a l'pròxim Hospital de Lowell General d'observació.

CITES DE COMBAT
GABRIEL BRACERO:
“Déu beneeixi a Danny O'Connor. Ell és un campió. El fet que ell va perdre avui, Encara em trec el barret davant seu. Es necessita un veritable campió de venir aquí i fer el que fa. Li desitjo la millor.
“És una sensació increïble. La veritat és, Jo era un guanyador abans que jo vaig entrar al ring. Això és un somni fet realitat. He somiat amb aquest dia durant molt de temps. Vaig cometre alguns errors en els meus baralles anteriors, però em vaig anar de nou al tauler de dibuix, se'n va anar al campament, fix meus errors i va arribar aquí avui súper enfocada.
Pel que va dir O'Connor després de la baralla…
“El meu missatge a Danny era, després de la meva última baralla, després de la meva última derrota, Jo era a baix. Vaig passar per una depressió. Li vaig dir que no a deixar que això passi a ell. Per recollir-se a si mateix una còpia de seguretat, estar orgullós de si mateix. Per anar a casa la seva bella dona i fills i gaudir de la vida. No volia que el mateix passi amb ell, que em va passar a mi.”
JONATHAN GUZMAN:
“He demostrat que puc lluitar i puc colpejar. Aquesta baralla va ser un exemple del que puc fer.
“A partir de la segona volta he lluitat amb les dues mans lastimadas. No importava a les meves mans, Jo anava a aturar-lo.”
RYAN KIELCZWESKI:
“Abans d'aquesta lluita, Jo sabia que podia perforar. Vaig pensar que vaig evitar durant tota la baralla, però en el desè round, ell em va aconseguir. Se sentia prou bo per ser sacsejat per primera vegada, només per saber el que se sent.”
“Jo com que vaig començar lent, però en els assalts intermedis, Vaig començar a posar els meus cops junts, tirar de quatre, de cinc, 06:00 cops a la vegada i que estava treballant. Però va tornar cada vegada i va començar a negociar amb mi.
(En anar 10 rondes…)
“Tot és el mateix. Ets tan cansat després d'una baralla a quatre assalts com vostè és després de les sis, eight or 10. You leave it all till the end of the fight. Tot se sent la mateixa.
(Per fer-se mal en el desè….)
“Jo no sabia on tenia els peus. Era una sensació estranya, No tenia ni idea del que se sentia com. Ell em va trucar i jo podia veure directament, però vaig sentir que em va esquerra i dreta.
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.
“La sang no estava en el meu ull. Jo no sabia que estava tallat fins que l'àrbitre es va acostar.
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 vegades com un aficionat.”
RAFAEL VAZQUEZ:
“Era un lluitador slick, que mogut i tenia un gran poder. Ell estava en bon estat. És jove, Seré 38 aquest any. Sense excuses, Em vaig traslladar fins 126 lliures per enfrontar-s'hi, Estic 122 lliura.
“Vaig pensar que havia guanyat les tres últimes rondes. Especialment la ronda novè i desè. La desena ronda era gran. Ell potser connectat 10 cops en tota la ronda. Li va sacsejar. El llastimar. Però, estem lluitant a la seva ciutat natal, i estic agraït per donar-me l'oportunitat.”
Cartellera
Pes pesat polonès Adam Kownacki (12-0, 10 KOs), lluitant des de Brooklyn, va mantenir el seu rècord invicte intacte, convertint en un esforç raonable per guanyar una decisió unànime de vuit assalts (78-73 X 3) sobre Rodney Hernández (8-3-1, 1 KO).

SEGÜENT la tràgica pèrdua del seu pare i entrenador contendre IRLANDÈS PATRICK HYLAND porta un cor pesat com sembla trobar consol en el ring la nit de dissabte

DEVOLUCIONS a la cartellera de PBC ON NBCSN AT Lowell Memorial Auditorium a Lowell, MISSA.
LOWELL, Missa. (10/9/15) – En dissabte nit, Contendent classificat mundial irlandès Patrick Hyland (30-1, 14 KOs) faces David Martinez on the undercard of the PBC on NBCSN event from Lowell, Missa. The fight won’t be shown on television, Hyland veu aquesta és la baralla més important de la seva carrera com ell treballa el seu camí de retorn a la contesa pel títol mundial.
La baralla en dissabte night will be the first in a career that dates back to his days as a 9-year-old amateur in Ireland where his trainer, father and best friend Patrick Sr. no estarà en el seu cantó. Patrick Sr., millor conegut com arròs, tràgicament mort a la primavera d'aquest any. En sortir de la comunitat de la boxa irlandès va commocionar.
“Sento la seva veu en la part de darrere del meu cap cada dia. Cada dia. Especialment al gimnàs encara que quan estic formació,” said Hyland Jr.
La pèrdua del pare de Hyland es va produir tot just setmanes abans de l'esposa de Hyland Lorna va donar a llum al seu primer fill, Callum, a més d'afegir a la importància d'aquesta lluita.
I challenged Javier Fortuna for the world championship,” said Hyland. “Vaig guanyar el títol mundial d'Irlanda. He lluitat al MGM Grand, l'O2 Arena i el Madison Square Garden. Per a mi, però, this is the most important fight of my career. No només estic lluitant pel meu fill acabat de néixer, però jo estic lluitant per mantenir viu el llegat del meu pare. Ell em va fer l'home que sóc avui i l'home que jo vull que el meu fill algun dia es converteixi en. Winning a world title was our dream that we had together. He was always pushing me and my brothers to be the absolute best that we can be, i no pararé fins que arribi una altra oportunitat per un títol mundial.”
La baralla en dissabte night will be Hyland’s fourth since the lone loss of his career, una decisió de 12 assalts molt entretingut pel títol ploma interí contra l'ara actual campió súper ploma Javier Fortuna. Following the loss to Fortuna, Hyland was out of action for a year and a half, mentre revisava temes promocionals. Hyland va signar amb DiBella Entertainment al juny de 2014 and has since put together three impressive victories. Hyland believes that he will be knocking on the door to challenge for another world title in 2016.
“Tinc un gran equip darrere meu. El meu manager Brian Peters i el promotor Lou DiBella estan treballant dur,” seguit Hyland. “Mentre segueixo guanyar i fer el que he de fer, Sé que em van a tenir l'oportunitat de provar-me a mi mateix i demostrar que sóc un dels millors 126 lliures en el món. 2016 serà un gran any per a mi i estic totalment d'esperar per ser una vegada més un repte per a un tros de la corona de pes ploma.”

Vegi aquí el que els participants havien de dir Dimecres:
DANNY O'CONNOR
“Això té a veure amb la lluita contra mi el procés. 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. Jo era 14-0 i la lluita per 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!
“Aquesta lluita és contra mi. em. 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. Ara, 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, on vaig guanyar el títol de Guants d'Or de Nova Anglaterra i estic lluitant en la televisió nacional, però l'esdeveniment està entre les quatre cantonades i això és el que realment compta.”
GABRIEL BRACERO
“Estic emocionat. 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.
“Jo sóc més experimentat. I moved to train in Orlando and get away from distractions. I hit a few bumps and got incarcerated. Tommy Gallagher (entrenador) 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, però Tommy i el meu pare, 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. No puc prendre res fora d'ell, però estic mirant endavant a posar en una actuació espectacular Dissabte nit.”
JONATHAN GUZMAN
“Vaig a fer 20-per-20, si! I’m powerful because I make strong moves. My left hook is my best punch. Puc sentir el poder a través de tot el meu cos quan em va colpejar algú dreta.
“No em preocupo per la meva oponent o el que ha fet en el passat.
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
“La meva última baralla em va impulsar (molest per la decisió sobre Ryan Kielczweski). It made me more confident in myself. La meva última baralla va ser en ESPN i aquest està en 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 i és per això que estic tan motivat per aquesta baralla.
“Vaig guanyar el Campionat Guants d'Or de Nova Anglaterra a Lowell Memorial Auditorium en 2007.
“Entrenament dur i sempre estic en bona forma suficient per guanyar-li a qualsevol.”
RYAN KIELCZWESKI
I like fighting at home and this is one of my favorite venues. I won the New England Golden Gloves there twice.
“He entrenat perquè això sigui la baralla més dura de la meva carrera.
“(Vásquez) is tough with a lot of power. He’s going come forward, però podré amb ell fora de la caixa.
“Està classificat en la part superior 10 del món i una victòria m'hauria de posar de nou en la part superior 10 lluitar per un títol mundial en el pròxim any.”
RAFAEL VASQUEZ
“Aquesta és una gran oportunitat per a mi. I think this fight will put me on the map fighting on national TV and showing fans what I’ve got.
“Sóc una fam, small fighter determined to win. I fight for my wife, Sandra, que té l'escenari i 4 càncer i el meu fill de vuit anys d'edat, filla, Kaline, who has autism. It’s not just me fighting in the ring, it’s the Vasquez family. With God’s grace, tot és possible.
“Ryan es mou molt. 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.
“Sóc un emocionant, combat entretingut que sempre ve a barallar.
“Després que acabi fora Eubanks, Vaig a ser el núm. 1 competidor a l'AMB i Golovkin no em pot mantenir per més temps.
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, però quan vaig arribar a la gent, cauen.”
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. Nova York és un duel clàssic que ha dominat els titulars esportius al nord-est durant anys com els Yankees de Nova York i els Mitjanes Rojas de Boston va lliurar incomptables guerres mentre que els Patriotes de Nova Anglaterra es van enfrontar als New York Giants en dos Super Bowls i van continuar la seva llarga rivalitat amb el Nou York Jets. La rica tradició d'aquesta rivalitat també s'ha vessat al ring com molts millors peleadores de cada regió s'han enfrontat a-off en els últims anys.
La primera Boston significatiu vs. NYC lluita es remunta a 1927 en el Yankee Stadium, quan Jack Dempsey detingut Gat “El Boston Gob” Sharkey en el setè assalt de la seva eliminatòria pel títol de pes pesat per desafiar campió del món Gene Tunney. Controversy surrounded this fight as Sharkey, un mariner en el U.S. Marina, lluitat al seu ídol de la boxa, Dempsey, qui juntament amb Babe Ruth ruled Manhattan during America’s Golden Age of Sports in the 1920s. Sharkey out-boxed Dempsey for six rounds until, protestar a l'àrbitre sobre cops baixos de Dempsey, va ser noquejat amb un ganxo d'esquerra de somni.
Un altre campió de pes pesat llegendària de la zona de Boston, Rocky Marcià, no hi hauria retirat amb el seu famós 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. Tres anys més tard, al Pol Grounds, Marcià va defensar amb èxit el seu títol mundial, noquejar Lastarza al 11ºassalt de la seva 1953 Baralla de l'Any.
Un parell de Saló de la Fama dels pesos pesants de Brooklyn, Floyd Patterson i “Planxa” Mike Tyson, respectivament, noquejar a Boston Tom McNeeley i el seu fill, Peter McNeeley. McNeeley dropped Patterson once but he hit the deck 11 vegades abans de sucumbir finalment en el quart assalt de la seva 1961 title fight in Toronto. His son, Peter, va perdre per desqualificació en primera ronda a Tyson qui lluitava per primera des que va ser alliberat de la presó.
Un bomber de Boston amb les mans fràgils, Paul Pender, dues vegades derrotat sens dubte el consens més gran de tots els temps, Harlem “Sucre” Ray Robinson, no una vegada, sinó dues vegades per 15 assalts divideix decisions en 1960 títol mundial de pes mitjà baralla al Boston Garden.
“Meravellós” Marvin Hagler, 1 trasplantat lluitador de New Jersey, que vivia a la ciutat natal de Marcià de Brockton, Missa., vaig sentir estafat quan se li va donar un empat en la seva primera baralla de títol mundial contra el campió defensor de Brooklyn Vito Antuofermo in Las Vegas. Dos anys després, en 1981, Hagler va capturar la corona cobejat al Boston Garden com Antuofermo va retirar després de quatre rondes.
Fins i tot Lowell “Irlandès” Micky Ward tenia un rival de la ciutat de Nova York a Brooklyn Zab Judah, 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.
Més recentment, Irish olímpic Kevin McBride, lluitant fora de la secció de Dorchester de Boston, va acabar la carrera de Tyson en 2005 amb una victòria per nocaut tècnic en el sisè assalt que va deixar el món de la boxa en estat de xoc, i Boston pes pesat John Ruiz – l'únic campió de pes pesat llatí del món – guanyat 2008 barallar a Mèxic en contra de Harlem Jameel McCline per decisió en 12 assalts en una eliminatòria pel títol mundial.
En Octubre 10, O'Connor, Bracero, Kielczweski i Vázquez tindran la seva oportunitat no només de representar a les seves ciutats d'origen, però per gravar a si mateixos en els annals de la rivalitat.
