Níl a an dá guys fhios conas rud ar bith a dhéanamh ach a chur ar an teilifís cairdiúil agus troideanna cairdiúil lucht leanúna. Sula n-éireoidh mé isteach aon rud eile leis an seó, Ba mhaith liom ach a dul sé thar a Kelly ó casadh Cloch a bhfuil an Bainisteoir PR mhaith leo a rá cúpla focal ar son nó óstach, Casadh Cloch Saoire & Casino a chuaigh amach ar a mbealach chun a chinntiú go tángadar i dtír an troid toisc go bhfuil siad i ndáiríre isteach an gnó dornálaíochta.

Mar sin,, sé ag dul a bheith ina troid i terrific ar a thaobh. Chomh fada Ruslan ar lena mbaineann, i mo thuairim níl aon cheann níos fearr. Táimid iontach le chéile ós rud é a thús, ós rud é a chéad troid i. Baineann sé le bheith de phribhléid agam a bheith ag obair leis. Tá sé ina lúthchleasaí fíor. Tá sé ag an-dírithe ar a phost. Tá sé ag thar a bheith dírithe ar a bheith ina cinn. An Vada, Is é an Tástáil Frithdhópála rud éigin i gcónaí go n-éilíonn sé agus insists ar. Ní dhéanann sé chreideann ba chóir go lúthchleasaithe a bheith rud ar bith ach dlisteanach agus 100 faoin gcéad dlíthiúil. Agus is é a bhainisteoir Vadim a tá mé ag obair le ar feadh roinnt blianta. Ní mór dúinn a lán de na trodaithe chéile. Agus tá sé daoine ach go maith, dírithe ar an bpost–Riamh ceist faoi cé. Tá sé i gcónaí nuair ag troid muid? Lig a dhéanamh ar an troideanna is fearr is féidir. Agus is é freisin anois Freddie Roach ar an glaoch le linn, mar atá a fhios agat. Gach duine a fhios Freddie. Agus d'athraigh a ghairm bheatha Ruslan nuair a chuaigh sé go dtí Freddie. Is í an fhírinne de, nuair a chuaigh sé go dtí Freddie, Fuair sa seomra aclaíochta, Bhí thart ar guys den chéad scoth, ar cháilíocht na ndaoine a bhí sé ag obair leis athrú agus forbairt a ghairm bheatha a bhí tenfold.

An tUasal. Vadim Kornilov: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Ruslan Provodnikov: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Vadim Kornilov: Tá gach rud ceart go. Ní hé seo an chéad uair nach raibh Freddie sa chúinne. Maidir liom féin cad atá tábhachtach ná go bhfuil Freddie liom i rith an champa, agus táimid ag obair le chéile mar fhoireann chun teacht suas leis an straitéis ceart agus, Tá a fhios agat, fháil réidh le haghaidh troid. Níl sé le déileáil go mór. Tá a fhios agat, Is Marvin Somodio Tá Guy Freddie ar dheis ag dul a bheith ann dom agus tá a fhios agam go bhfuil a fhios Marvin an méid is gá dom a dhéanamh ar an mícheart. Agus sin ar fad go bhfuil tábhachtach, ach go dtí mé nach bhfuil sé seo ina fhadhb.
An tUasal. Dan Rafael: Maith go leor, Freddie, bhfuil tú ann?
An tUasal. Freddie Roach: Is ea.
An tUasal. Dan Rafael: Freddie, Tá a fhios agam mhaith leat i gcónaí a bheith le do lucht múchta ar oíche troid in. Is léir go bhfuil cuid mhór de oiliúint Guy. An féidir leat labhairt leis an chúis nach mbeidh tú a bheith ann? An bhfuil sé an t-ábhar ar díreach mar gheall ar thromaíocht an champa traenála Pacquiao? Tuigim tú go raibh roinnt fadhbanna chomh maith le do ais. Cad é do ghlacadh ar na cúiseanna nach féidir leat é a dhéanamh chun casadh Cloch don troid.
An tUasal. Freddie Roach: Yeah, toisc go bhfuil an troid i Pacquiao-tábhachtach ceart anois agus tá Ruslan-tábhachtach freisin. Tá mé ag obair leis gach lá sa seomra aclaíochta. Sé agus Marvin bhfuil caidreamh maith le chéile. Marvin fhios cad atá le déanamh. Tá sé ina thraenálaí an-mhaith. Fiú amháin tar éis troid nuair a chuaigh muid go dtí Denver leis féin gan dom agus tháinig siad ar aghaidh tríd. Tuigeann siad cad ba mhaith liom agus díreach toisc nach bhfuil mé nach bhfuil ann–Beidh Ruslan troid fós a troid agus beidh Marvin na hoiriúnuithe ar an mbealach. Ní bheidh aon fhadhb ar bith. Níl sé an chéad nó an deiridh uair seo a tharla i mo shaol.
An tUasal. Dan Rafael: Freddie, nuair a cheapann tú faoi an gcomhrac ar pháipéar idir na guys, I mo thuairimse, go leor i bhfad Breathnaíonn gach lucht leanúna Dornálaíochta ag agus díreach a deir, “WOW, níl aon seans. Ní féidir é seo a bheith, Tá a fhios agat, d'fhéadfadh a bheith leis an gcomhrac in na bliana, nó gníomhaíocht pacáilte troid i an-i gcuimhne. An féidir leat a thabhairt ach dom do ghlacadh ar an gcluiche ar bun?
An tUasal. Freddie Roach: Is ea, tá sé an cluiche is mó suas ar fud an domhain. Tá sé–atá tú a fuair dhá guys a ghrá le dul i ngleic, dhá guys atá punches mór. Tá sé seo ag dul chun bheith ina troid an-spreagúil. Sin do cinnte, agus tá sé an gcomhrac is fearr agus an chuid is fearr an méid is gá dúinn. Is é seo cad atá ar siúl sa dornálaíocht ceart anois agus sin an fáth a bhfuil gach rud ag tarlú i ndáiríre i dornálaíocht mó ná riamh ag an bpointe seo mar gheall ar an troideanna mar seo.
An tUasal. Dan Rafael: Vadim, d'fhéadfaí tú a iarraidh ar Ruslan le do fhreagra a thabhairt chomh maith ar a ghlacadh ar an gcluiche suas? Tá lucht leanúna Dornálaíochta an oiread sin atá ag súil Super faoi seo ach mar gheall ar an stíl gníomhaíochta a Ruslan chomh maith leis Lucas leis an fáinne.
An tUasal. Vadim Kornilov: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Ruslan Provodnikov: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Vadim Kornilov: Súil agam mar go léir an lucht leanúna an gcéanna. Tá a fhios agat, tá sé seo le cluiche an-spreagúil ar bun. Tá sé seo ag dul a bheith ina troid i mór agus is dóigh liom go bhfuil mé tá sé aon níos lú ná do na daoine go léir ag faire. Tá a fhios agat, dom go bhfuil sé spreagúil chomh maith agus tá na cineálacha troideanna cad atá tábhachtach mar gheall ar dom ar an troid agus an t-airgead mar a dúirt mé mhéad uair, ní bhíonn siad uimhir amháin. Is uimhir amháin ba mhaith liom mo chuid troideanna a bheith mar chuid de stair, agus Ceapaim go bhfuil sé seo ar cheann de na troideanna go bhfuil i ndán a bheith mar chuid de stair. Agus sin cad ba mhaith liom a thabhairt ar mo lucht leanúna. Sin cad ba mhaith liom a thabhairt ar mo daoine ar ais go bhfuil baile na troideanna go mbeidh daoine cuimhneamh toisc nach bhfuil na troideanna go bhfuil a troideanna Domhanda Teideal cuimhne. Ach na troideanna a–an cineál gcomhrac féidir a tharlaíonn idir Matthysse agus mé–Is troid go bhfuil ag dul cinnte a mheabhrú go deo.
An tUasal. Dan Rafael: Gach ceart, buíochas a ghabháil leat go mór, guys–buíoch as do chuid ama.
An tUasal. Marc Abrams: Go raibh maith agat.
Oibreoir: Gach ceart, Tagann cheist eile as an líne Michael Woods leis an Eolaíocht Sweet. Tá do líne beo.
An tUasal. Michael Woods: Hey, guys, go raibh maith agat le haghaidh a dhéanamh an t-am–Is é mo cheist do Ruslan. Ruslan, Glacadh leis go Creidim tú ag dul isteach ar an gcomhrac tú ag gealltóireachta ná Matthysse. Cén chaoi a bhfuil tú níos fearr ná mar a Mattyssee?
An tUasal. Vadim Kornilov: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Ruslan Provodnikov: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Vadim Kornilov: Bhuel, an gcéad de gach ní dúirt mé go bhfuil mé níos fearr ná é nó go bhfuil mé níos fearr ná aon duine eile mar nach bhfuil sé dom a bhreitheamh. Gach féidir liom a rá go bhfuil go bhfuil a fhios agam gur féidir liom a buille aon duine agus tá sé ar fad faoi mo thoil. Agus tá a fhios agam go má mé a thabhairt gach rud go bhfuil mé an fáinne, agus a thabhairt mé gach rud go bhfuil mé in oiliúint, Is féidir liom a buille aon duine. Tá sé ar fad faoi mo charachtar agus tá gach mé sásta a thabhairt. Ní féidir liom a breitheamh atá níos fearr nó atá níos fearr, Tá a fhios agat? Agus tá a fhios agam go bhfuil a fhoireann ag rá a lán rudaí agus tá siad ag rá, “Tá a fhios agat, táimid ag dul chun cnag iad amach. Tá muid níos cliste, tá muid níos fearr, tá muid boxers níos fearr.” Níl mé ag iarraidh a rá ar bith de sin. Tá mé a lán níos polaitiúla ná sin. Tá a fhios agat, Tá caint saor. Tá a fhios agat, níl rá na Rúise a deir, “Ná rá bhuaigh mé go dtí go bhuachan tú,” Tá a fhios agat go bunúsach. Agus níl mé ag dul chun labhairt. Tá a fhios agat, Tá mé ag dul go dtí mo caint an fáinne agus sílim gur féidir liom a bheith níos fearr ná aon duine má tuillte mé é agus a thabhairt liom go léir in oiliúint.
An tUasal. Dan Rafael: Stuif maith–Is maith liom go. Is ceist do Freddie–Freddie, Níl mé ag iarraidh do phlean cluiche, ach tá mé ag iarraidh ar conas a chreideann tú go bhfuil Ruslan fearr ná Matthysse ar pháipéar ag dul isteach sa troid.
An tUasal. Freddie Roach: I mo thuairimse,, yera yeah, Tá sé, Sílim go bhfuil sé ina pollaire maith, ach tá Matthysse an-láidir freisin. Ciallaíonn mé go bhfuil sé seo–an dá guys an-chontúirteach. Dúirt mé Ruslan má tá tú Gortaítear Guy, ní labhairt ach i toisc go bhfuil sé de chumhacht ollmhór. Don’t let him get lucky. Mar sin,, Tá a fhios agat, we have a pretty good game plan down. We know what do I think and how to do it I think. And so, probably we had a great training camp.
An tUasal. Dan Rafael: Gach ceart, good stuff–go raibh maith agat, guys, Is mór agam é.
Oibreoir: Our next question comes from the line of Distino Lois Jr. from Black Star News New York City. Tá do líne beo.
An tUasal. Distino Lois Jr.: Go raibh míle maith agat go mór–thank you for the invitation, Is mór agam é. The question to Ruslan is, Ruslan, ar an drochuair–this is Distino Lois Jr., Black Star News, –you suffered a setback with your loss to Chris Algieri. Do you consider this fight with Lucas Matthysse a redemption, a door opener if victorious so that you can take advantage of the vacancies of the 140 pounders because now, ar ndóigh, we are aware of the fact that Danny Garcia and Lamont Peterson, two of your future opponents, have moved up to 143 catch-weight fight for the 11th. Mar sin,, now the victory over Matthysse would be a door opener for you. Is that how you feel?
An tUasal. Vadim Kornilov: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Ruslan Provodnikov: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Vadim Kornilov: I definitely know that there’s a lot of different things going on at 140 ceart anois, but for me right now I’m thinking about April 18th, Tá a fhios agat? Tá a fhios agat, I’m thinking about this fight and I know that once I win this fight it will open a lot of doors for me. Ach, Tá a fhios agat, once the fight is over we can sit down and I’ll be happy to answer all your questions about what’s next.
An tUasal. Artie Pelullo: I see–let me just also clarify the question that was asked. So you know, neither one of those two guys are giving up their title. They’re fighting at 143 punt. Mar sin,, neither one of them would have to be at risk of losing their title, which I find very interesting that neither one of them would fight for their title so they could give up their title to the winner. Mar sin,, nobody is giving up their titles in that fight. What they’re doing is they made an agreement not to put their titles on the line, which is a big difference in what your question was originally about, a dhuine uasail.
An tUasal. Distino Lois Jr.: Bhuel, go hiomlán, but I question Danny Garcia and you said he was having trouble making the weight. That’s why he agreed–.
An tUasal. Artie Pelullo: –Then he should give up the title–.
An tUasal. Distino Lois Jr.: –To, go–.
An tUasal. Artie Pelullo: –Then he should give up the title, but anyway–.
An tUasal. Distino Lois Jr.: –Ceart–.
An tUasal. Artie Pelullo: –That’s not–he should give up the title, but that’s not what’s going on–.
An tUasal. Distino Lois Jr.: –Ceart–.
An tUasal. Artie Pelullo: –What’s going on is they’re not fighting on weight, so neither one of them are at risk to lose their title–.
An tUasal. Distino Lois Jr.: –Ceart, I’m aware of that. Go raibh míle maith agat go mór. Ruslan, without giving out any trade secrets with your Hall of Fame Freddie Roach trainer, how are you all prepared for Matthysse, being that Matthysse has already shown some flaws of being knocked down twice by Molina and once by Danny Garcia? Mar sin,, what are you doing to make sure that yours is the final punch?
An tUasal. Marc Abrams: I guess next question?
Oibreoir: Gach ceart, our next question comes from the line of Briggs Seekins from Bleacher Report. Tá do líne beo.
An tUasal. Briggs Seekins: Yeah, hi, Ruslan–I’m wondering is there a sense where mentally it’s a little bit easier to relax in training camp when you know you’re playing a guy who is going to give you the kind of fight you want and not be, Tá a fhios agat, an evasive sort of fighter like Algieri, but a guy who is going to, Tá a fhios agat, like you say, give you a fight that makes history and also give you the kind of fight that you like to fight?
An tUasal. Vadim Kornilov: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Ruslan Provodnikov: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Vadim Kornilov: For me training camp is training camp. I always give everything I can in training camp and I’m very responsible in training camp. Ní féidir liom a ghlacadh aon duine héadrom, but to answer your question, Tá a fhios agat, walking into a ring with a fighter that I know will fight me definitely I can do a lot better than a fighter who will just run.
An tUasal. Briggs Seekins: Mór, go raibh maith agat–and Artie I did–I want to thank you for calling out the situation at 140 with the titles. It’s a little discouraging to see them not treated the way that a lot of us grew up seeing titles treated.
An tUasal. Artie Pelullo: Yup, you’re right, agus, Tá a fhios agat, what’s going on is purely that they don’t want to have anything at risk. It’s a dangerous fight for both guys, but not for like Provodnikov and Matthysse. They’re putting it all on the line because they’re still fighting at 12 babhtaí. Tá sé 140 punt. There is no title because we don’t have one, and I’m telling you both these kids would put their titles out if they had, but they wouldn’t be avoiding fighting for the title because then they don’t want to take a chance at losing it. That’s what’s going on. That’s exactly what’s happening.
An tUasal. Briggs Seekins: Yeah, go hiomlán–all right, good luck, Ruslan.
An tUasal. Marc Abrams: I guess we’ll take one more for Ruslan.
Oibreoir: Our last question comes from the line of Chris Gunzz with 15rounds.com. Tá do líne beo.
An tUasal. Chris Gunzz: Ruslan, he is a huge puncher as a few different guys brought up already. Do you think he’s going to be the biggest puncher you’ve faced and do you ever wonder if you’ll be able to handle that power? Have you ever had the experience of getting hit by a guy who carries a massive punch like that, and do you feel–any questions on whether you’ll be able to take it on the night?
An tUasal. Vadim Kornilov: The question is about Matthysse being the biggest puncher that Ruslan has faced, correct?
An tUasal. Chris Gunzz: Is ea, and if he has any questions of whether he’ll be able to take it.
An tUasal. Vadim Kornilov: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Ruslan Provodnikov: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Vadim Kornilov: Looking at his record, he seems to be one of the biggest punchers of this decade, Tá a fhios agat? He’s probably one of the biggest punchers right now. Does it bother me–not at all. It only makes me more excited because I know that this is going to be a real fight and I know that either, Tá a fhios agat, I take him or he takes me. And it’s going to be toe to toe it’s going to be a real fight. For me that’s only a positive.
An tUasal. Chris Gunzz: And I appreciate that even more that you realize you’re facing someone dangerous, and you want to face him anyway and you don’t mind it. I love the balls you’re showing in that, and final question for Freddie. Is it a plan to jump on him early, Freddie, because he did show that vulnerability in the Molina fight? Is Freddie still there? I heard someone hang up in the phone call, but is Freddie still there?
An tUasal. Freddie Roach: Tá mé anseo. Yeah, I’m still here.
An tUasal. Chris Gunzz: Is it a focus in training camp to try to jump on him early seeing that the vulnerability was shown in the Molina fight early on?
An tUasal. Freddie Roach: Bhuel, Tá a fhios agat, we can. I mean we know how this guy fights. I mean I think he is the bigger punch, and we’re a little bit better than he is, but I mean, Tá a fhios agat, he’s got his strong points also. Mar sin,, it makes for an exciting fight. Ruslan is a very good fighter. Ruslan, I saw him learn how to fight Manny Pacquiao on his own. He used to be Manny’s sparing partner. And that’s when I first really got interested in him because he’s so capable. He learns very quickly and he’s a great shooter.
An tUasal. Chris Gunzz: One of the best ever–Is mór agam é, Freddie. Good luck on April 18th and good luck on May too.
An tUasal. Freddie Roach: Go raibh míle maith agat go mór.

An tUasal. Marc Abrams: Tá sé–I’m going to turn it over to Golden Boy and Team Matthysse in a minute. I guess final comments from I guess first Artie and then Ruslan.
An tUasal. Artie Pelullo: Bhuel, I just want to say thank you for everybody for joining the call. There’s really not much to say. As Dan Rafael and all the other reporters and Mr. Woods who got on the phone, everybody knows that this is the most TV friendly and fan friendly fight. The networks were all over–both of them bid on the fight. Mar sin,, it’s going to be a great night for boxing, a great night for our fans. And I just want to thank everybody, Ruslan, Freddie, and Vadim for helping promote the fight, a–it’s like–it doesn’t take a lot of promoting to promote this event because everybody knows it’s going to be a terrific event. I want to thank everybody for coming on board–go raibh maith agat. Now I’d like to introduce my co-promoter and my partner in the show, and everybody knows who this is, one of the great fighters of our time who has turned out to be quite the promoter himself, good people. He has a nice staff. Like I said earlier, a lot of people say a lot of different things. It literally has been no misses to work with Oscar and his staff. It was very smooth and it’s been a joy and a pleasure, and like Eric Gomez and I say there will be future events that we’ll be working. Now I’d like to turn it over to Oscar De La Hoya. He’s the founder and president of Golden Boy and one of the great personalities in our sport. It’s my pleasure to work with him, Oscar?
An tUasal. Vadim Kornilov: Artie, sorry to interrupt. Ruslan is leaving. Mar sin,, we’re good to go. He wanted to say a couple of things–.

Vadim Kornilov: –I want to give the word to Oscar De La Hoya and the rest of his team, and I bet for the next 30 minutes you guys are going to hear a lot of–Matthysse is going to knock Provodnikov out and all of that, but I just want to say that Provodnikov has never been on his knees. Mar sin,, Tá a fhios agat, they’re talking about knockouts a lot, but they should be expecting a knock out on their team. Good luck to you guys and I appreciate the promotions. Ruslan says all the best of health to Matthysse and his team–go raibh maith agat.
An tUasal. Artie Pelullo: Go raibh maith agat, Vadim–.
An tUasal. Vadim Kornilov: –Thanks again–.
An tUasal. Artie Pelullo: –Bhuel, since I–I apologize, guys, I went a little bit too fast. Mar sin,, Oscar, you’re up. I don’t have to say it again. Everybody knows what we think of you–Oscar De La Hoya–.
An tUasal. Oscar De La Hoya: Go raibh míle maith agat go mór–we really appreciate it and Artie already mentioned this fight needs no promotion. We are just thrilled that the best network is going to be televising this event. These are the types of events that obviously belong on HBO Championship Boxing and we are just thrilled and excited to be part of it. I also want to take the opportunity to thank Corona Extra, also Mexico Live it to Believe it, and Corsair Vodka, which are the sponsors of the events. They have been doing a tremendous, tremendous job with all of the Marketing and the grassroots Marketing. Mar sin,, come April 18th the whole world will know the best 140 pounders will be fighting on that night. It is my pleasure to introduce to you a fighter who hails from Argentina. We all know Argentinean fighters are strong fighters who are smart fighters who come to give the fight fans a spectacular show and when you’re going to see Lucas and Provodnikov in that same ring April 18th, we–you’re guaranteed fireworks. Mar sin,, it is my pleasure to introduce to you a fighter with a record of 36 agus 3 agus 32 knockouts. They call him La Máquina, and that is Lucas Matthysse. [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha]–Lucas. [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha], Lucas.
An tUasal. Lucas Matthysse: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Eric Gomez: I’ll translate for Lucas. He said, hi, good afternoon, gach duine–I’m calling from my training camp in Junin and I’ve very excited for this fight and to be fighting once again in the United States.
An tUasal. Marc Abrams: Go raibh maith agat, gracias, and we’ll now open it up for questions from the media–gracias.
Oibreoir: As a reminder, if you would like to ask a question, Is féidir leat é sin a ag réalta cnaipe agus ansin amháin ar do keypad teileafóin. Sin réalta agus an ceann uimhir, and our first question comes from the line of Dan Rafael with ESPN. Tá do líne beo.
An tUasal. Dan Rafael: Go raibh míle maith agat go mór–my question for Lucas–I asked Ruslan this in his portion of the call–you have a fight here where I think pretty much every boxing fan, media is anxiously waiting what they think would be the fight of the year. I would like to hear from Lucas about his thoughts about the really high expectations for this fight to be, Tá a fhios agat, extremely, extremely exciting and entertaining.
An tUasal. Eric Gomez: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Lucas Matthysse: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Eric Gomez: Is ea, Tá mé, Tá a fhios agat, I’m just excited. I’m excited to be fighting a caliber of fighter like Ruslan. It’s two, Tá a fhios agat, fighters at the top of their game fighting each other. I had many good, Tá a fhios agat, replies on it, especially in Argentina. A lot of people are looking forward to the fight and I’m just excited to be fighting again at this level and fighting a guy like Ruslan.
An tUasal. Dan Rafael: Eric, could you ask Lucas, Tá a fhios agat, in April last year he knocked out John Molina. It got voted as the Fight of the Year by the Boxing Writers. Does he think that it has the chance of–to be another fight of the year? Is that something he ever thinks about? I know he’s probably happy that they got the Fight of the Year for last year. He could make it two in a row potentially.
An tUasal. Eric Gomez: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Lucas Matthysse: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Eric Gomez: Bhuel, I mean for last year’s fight I’ve got to give credit to John Molina because he came to fight and he allowed me to perform in a way that made it Fight of the Year. If Ruslan comes forward and is aggressive and does the same thing, ansin, yes, I’m going to seize that opportunity and try to take advantage of that and make it an exciting fight. I think personally it could be a great fight. Ach, Tá a fhios agat, it takes two.
An tUasal. Dan Rafael: Exactly, thank you for that, Eric–one question for you, Oscar.
An tUasal. Oscar De La Hoya: Tá mé anseo.
An tUasal. Dan Rafael: Hey, Oscar, good to talk to you. I know for the last number of months you have preached very regularly about your desire to try to make the best fights you possibly can do as the leader of Golden Boy Promotions. I’d like to know from your point of view, is this sort of basically the kind of fight you had talked about when you said those words that this is the expectations that you have to make this caliber of a fight on a regular basis?
An tUasal. Oscar De La Hoya: Bhuel, these are exactly the fights that the fans want to see, whether there’s a title on the line or no title, or where it takes place. Tá a fhios agat, these are the fights that the fans deserve and I’ve been an advocate of staging the best fights possible for the fans and come April 18th I don’t know for sure, but I have a good hunch that this fight might be the Fight of the Year.
An tUasal. Dan Rafael: Gach ceart, thank you for that, Oscar–appreciate it. Go raibh míle maith agat go mór, guys, look forward to this one.
Oibreoir: Gach ceart, our next question comes from the line of Daniel [dothuigthe] [00:35:22] Deportiva [sp]. Tá do líne beo.
An tUasal. Daniel: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Oscar De La Hoya: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Daniel: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Oscar De La Hoya: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Eric Gomez: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Oscar De La Hoya: Yeah, he asked me about this fight, why wasn’t it staged in Los Angeles or in Las Vegas? Why New York, agus, Tá a fhios agat, simple–the venues were not available and I–he asked me if, Tá a fhios agat, this fight being such an exciting and anticipated fight, I mean how do I feel? This is what Golden Boy is all about and I’m just really happy to be working with Artie Pelullo and Eric was very instrumental in making this fight happen, and we feel very, very optimistic that I mean this fight is going be action packed from the first battle and I–and it might even be better than the Mayweather Pacquiao fight.
An tUasal. Daniel: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Eric Gomez: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Lucas Matthysse: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Eric Gomez: Maith go leor, so the question was, do you know–are you aware that, Tá a fhios agat, Freddie Roach will not be working in the corner of Ruslan on the night of the fight. And Lucas said, “Ná Gan, not really–I didn’t know.”
An tUasal. Daniel: Gracias.
Oibreoir: Gach ceart, Tagann cheist eile as an líne Michael Woods leis an Eolaíocht Sweet. Tá do líne beo.
An tUasal. Michael Woods: Tá, guys, thanks for taking the time. My question is for Ruslan. Ruslan, on the first portion of the call someone referenced you saying something along the lines of you believe you are going to knock Provodnikov out. But I didn’t see that. I’m not sure what outlet that was said to. Can you reiterate that? Can you talk about that and clarify it for me what was said there?
An tUasal. Eric Gomez: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Lucas Matthysse: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Eric Gomez: Ná Gan, he said they weren’t exactly those words, but he said how long. It’s a tough fight and he’s going to–he’s ready to fight. He’s ready for a tough fight, and if the opportunity presents itself so that the fight could end early, obviously I’m going to take advantage of it. But I’m ready to fight a tough fight and it’s going to be a tough fight.
An tUasal. Michael Woods: Go raibh maith agat–this question is for Oscar. Oscar, you’ve repeatedly said you want the best fighting the best. That’s going to be the stamp that Golden Boy wishes to put on its fight. I am wondering, is there a certain class of athlete and human being who wants to accept the challenge of the best fighting the best, and are you going to maybe target those types of fighters and only sign those types of fighters to Golden Boy moving forward?
An tUasal. Oscar De La Hoya: Bhuel, that’s up to the fighter. I mean I can’t fight for the fighter. Tá a fhios agat, they go up to the ring and they perform, ach, Tá a fhios agat, we at Golden Boy want to make the best match ups possible, Tá a fhios agat, obviously keeping in mind that, Tá a fhios agat, that the fans always come first and, Tá a fhios agat, this fight here with Lucas and Provodnikov, Ciallaíonn mé go bhfuil sé seo–everybody is writing about how this is going to be the Fight of the Year and we feel proud to be working with Artie Pelullo and making this happen.
An tUasal. Michael Woods: Yeah, and the fan buzz for this on Twitter is amazing I would say. Could you give us a hint maybe, a little bit of a tease about maybe some other types of fist fights that maybe you’re trying to make, or want to make for the rest of this year?
An tUasal. Oscar De La Hoya: Bhuel, this is–that’s calls for another conference call. Mar sin,, we’re going to focus here on Lucas. Mar sin,, we’ll have a call about that shortly, my man.
An tUasal. Michael Woods: Gach ceart, go raibh maith agat–appreciate it, guys–be well.
An tUasal. Artie Pelullo: Take care, Michael.
Oibreoir: Gach ceart, next question comes from the line of Disino Lois Jr. with Black Star News New York City. Tá do líne beo.
An tUasal. Disino Lois Jr.: Go raibh míle maith agat go mór–gracias–[Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Artie Pelullo: Hey, Eric, can you translate that in English too? I speak a little Italian, but no Spanish.
An tUasal. Disino Lois Jr.: Oh, you want me to say it in English too?
An tUasal. Artie Pelullo: Yeah, I want to hear what’s–I told you, I speak a little Italian, but no Spanish–sorry, guys.
An tUasal. Disino Lois Jr.: Bhuel, I can do both if you want me to. Níl a fhios agam.
An tUasal. Eric Gomez: Mar sin,, the question was, Lucas, do you see this as an opportunity of more doors opening at 140 so that you can be the top fighter at 140? Obviously there’s still Danny Garcia and Lamonte, but everybody knows they’re fighting at a catch-weight. Is this kind of like the changing of the guard and it’s going to open up the doors so you can be the top fighter at 140? Lucas, [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha], Lucas?
An tUasal. Lucas Matthysse: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Eric Gomez: Is ea, ar ndóigh, I mean obviously with this fight here, we’re the ones that are fighting at the weight class–.
An tUasal. Artie Pelullo: –Ceart–.
An tUasal. Eric Gomez: –Whatever reason Danny and Lamonte, they’re not–they’re fighting outside of the weight class. Is ea, this is the fight that’s going to open up opportunities for the winner. It’s the fight that’s going to open up bigger and better things, and that’s what I’m looking forward to. That’s what motivates me.
An tUasal. Disino Lois Jr.: Lucas, [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Eric Gomez: Are you preparing for this question–are you preparing for this fight which obviously promises to be a fight in a phone booth? Are you preparing so you’re not hit and not dropped like you have, like you did get dropped with Danny and your last fight with Molina, Lucas?
An tUasal. Lucas Matthysse: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Eric Gomez: Bhuel, it’s all in the preparation. It’s all in the preparation and I’ve had–.
An tUasal. Disino Lois Jr.: –Ceart–.
An tUasal. Eric Gomez: –And I’ve had a very, very good preparation and obviously we’ve worked on things so that that won’t happen during the fight, but it’s all in the preparation and I’ve had one of the best preparations for this fight.
An tUasal. Disino Lois Jr.: Go raibh maith agat–gracias, Lucas–my last question will be to Oscar De La Hoya. Oscar–I’ll do it in English. Is this your dream come true, Oscar, that all of the fights that you wanted to put together are little by little coming true, and at the same time you are spreading the wealth because you are going up to Verona, Nua-Eabhrac. A lot of people have told me, where the heck is Verona, Nua-Eabhrac, but it is a fight town. Mar sin,, are you doing this to spread the wealth of boxing and to make it more palatable for those who cannot come into the Las Vegas and the California’s and whatever?
An tUasal. Oscar De La Hoya: Bhuel, it, I’m happy to be part of a year where boxing will be shown and on the main stage. Tá a fhios agat, we feel that boxing in 2015 is going to transcend–.
An tUasal. Disino Lois Jr.: –Ceart–.
An tUasal. Oscar De La Hoya: –And boxing is just–it’s just getting started. I mean with the Mayweather Pacquiao fight happening–.
An tUasal. Disino Lois Jr.: –Ceart–.
An tUasal. Oscar De La Hoya: –With Canelo fighting and this fight here, I mean this is what the fans want to see and we’re just excited to be part of it. Agus, Tá a fhios agat, to take it down to Verona, Tá a fhios agat, the ticket sales are just a great indication of–.
An tUasal. Disino Lois Jr.: –Ceart–.
An tUasal. Oscar De La Hoya: –Tá a fhios agat, that Verona is a fight town and–.
An tUasal. Disino Lois Jr.: –Exactly–.
An tUasal. Oscar De La Hoya: –Yeah, the arenas weren’t available in Los Angeles or Las Vegas. Mar sin,, Tá a fhios agat, we didn’t take a risk of taking it to Verona. I mean we obviously already–Pelullo knew first hand what type of fans there are in Verona, Nua-Eabhrac. Mar sin,, Tá a fhios agat, obviously he wasn’t wrong. I mean this is almost a sell out event so we’re excited to be part of it.
An tUasal. Disino Lois Jr.: Go raibh míle maith agat go mór–God bless all of you and [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha]. Go raibh míle maith agat go mór, Is mór agam é.
An tUasal. Oscar De La Hoya: Gracias.
Oibreoir: Gach ceart, next question comes from the lines of Chris Gunzz with15rounds.com. Tá do líne beo.
An tUasal. Chris Gunzz: Lucas, Tá a fhios agam go–it was my opinion that it was Fight of the Year last year, you versus John Molina. And you know how hard John Molina hits. You faced him. When you were sent film of Ruslan, you know that he carries a punch. How do you assess through film when you compare what you might feel from him, that what you already felt from John Molina? Who do you think has bigger one-punch power?
An tUasal. Eric Gomez: Lucas, [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha]. Lucas?
An tUasal. Lucas Matthysse: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Eric Gomez: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Lucas Matthysse: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Eric Gomez: Is ea, yes, okay–yera yeah, yera yeah, Tá a fhios agat, obviously it’s hard to compare because, Tá a fhios agat, I haven’t fought against Ruslan. But they’re different styles. They’re different styles. Molina was a little sneaky. Ruslan is a very, very different style. Obviously the object of it is not to get hit, Tá a fhios agat, in this fight but I’m preparing. I’ll be ready for it.
An tUasal. Chris Gunzz: Agus, as a guy who faced that kind of power and had to get up, cross the canvas, and you pulled out a victory in that great fight, do you ever have any questions that if Ruslan does prove to carry bigger power, will you be able to get up? Do you ever question that?
An tUasal. Eric Gomez: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Lucas Matthysse: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Eric Gomez: I’m not going to get dropped with Ruslan. Mar sin,, you don’t have to worry about that. I’m not going to get dropped. But when Molina dropped me, Tá a fhios agat, if the punch was a little bit behind my head. I’m not making excuses, but I’m not going to get dropped. I’m not going to get dropped with Ruslan and that’s not what I’m thinking about.
An tUasal. Chris Gunzz: He’s pretty tough, and one question for Cuty Barrera, Lucas did show and he has shown that he can jab and he can move a little bit. He does have a little bit more to his game than Ruslan does. Is it a game plan to show movement because Ruslan does admit that he has problems with movers? Is it a plan to try to move a little bit?
An tUasal. Eric Gomez: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Cuty Barrera: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Eric Gomez: He’s talking in robot I think. I don’t know what he’s saying. [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Chris Gunzz: Does Lucas want to answer that? Is he trying to involve a little bit more movement to the fight?
An tUasal. Eric Gomez: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Cuty Barrera: [Labhartha Teanga Eachtracha].
An tUasal. Artie Pelullo: I don’t now what’s going on.
An tUasal. Eric Gomez: Yeah, a dúirt sé, Tá a fhios agat cad? I think I understood him saying they’re working on the jab. He’s working on the jab a little bit, but he doesn’t want to give up too much information.
An tUasal. Chris Gunzz: Maybe he’s coming as a robot. He’s going to be had to beat if he does. And one quick question for Oscar. Oscar, when you finished laughing out loud, what did you end up saying through text or phone call to Gary Russell on Saturday night? I’m just playing. I’m just playing. I don’t want you to answer that. I know you’re a lot more professional. I just want to commend you on the great fights that you’re putting on and the great job you’re doing at Golden Boy. I do appreciate the great job you guys are doing–go raibh maith agat–go raibh maith agat, gach duine.
An tUasal. Oscar De La Hoya: Go raibh maith agat.
An tUasal. Artie Pelullo: Are we done, Marc?
Oibreoir: We have no further questions, go raibh maith agat, ag an am seo.
An tUasal. Artie Pelullo: Maith go leor, mar sin, Buille faoi thuairim mé, Oscar, I want to thank you. Eric, Lucas Matthysse, Ruslan, and all of the reporters on board. See everybody–Oscar, I’d like you–I’ll let you finish up with the last word. I want to see everybody at the fight and I appreciate everything that is happening with this great event–go raibh maith agat.
An tUasal. Oscar De La Hoya: Go raibh maith agat–buíochas a ghabháil leat go mór, agus, yera yeah, there’s really not much to say. We’ll see you April 18th. I mean sure fireworks. We are all excited and we’re just–it’s just a pleasure to be working with Artie Pelullo and his staff and everybody involved. Mar sin,, watch it live on HBO Championship Boxing. There’s a few tickets left. Mar sin,, it’s sure going to be a sell out and crowd there in New York. Mar sin,, we’re excited and so we’ll see you soon–go raibh maith agat.
An tUasal. Artie Pelullo: Oscar, if you’re around tomorrow, Dé Céadaoin, I’ll be in LA. Lunch is on me at In-N-Out Burger. Very important on the east coast–we don’t have them here.
An tUasal. Oscar De La Hoya: I’m actually in–I’ll be in New York, but I’ll take you up on that at another date–go raibh maith agat, Artie.
An tUasal. Artie Pelullo: You got it. Have a good day, guys–buíochas a ghabháil leat go mór–anything else, Marc?
An tUasal. Marc Abrams: Ná Gan.
An tUasal. Artie Pelullo: Gach ceart, go raibh maith agat–bye bye–.
