BROOKLYN (Август 21, 2016) – Непобеждаван изгряваща звезда Ерол “Истината” Спенс Jr. (21-0-, 18 Нокаута) moved one step closer to a world title as he delivered a thunderous sixth-round knockout of tough Italian contender Leonard “Лъвът” Bundu (33-2-2, 12 Нокаута) Sunday afternoon in the main event of Премиер боксови Champions (PBC)на NBC from Ford Amphitheater at Coney Island Boardwalk in Brooklyn.
With the knockout, Спенс Jr. becomes the mandatory challenger for undefeated welterweight Кел Brook and showed his willingness to step in the ring with Brook.
“I definitely want my shot at Kell Brook and his title,” каза Спенс Jr. “I want him next. If he vacates or gets stripped then I’ll fight for his vacant title. I’ve paid my dues.”
In a prime spot that immediately followed the U.S. Men’s basketball team winning Olympic gold in Rio, the Dallas-native started patiently, measuring his opponent with steady jabs. Bundu came ready to fight and tried to make it difficult for Spence Jr. by switching stances and attacking from awkward angles.
“I was a little shakey in the first round and second rounds,” каза Спенс Jr. “He’s very awkward and I was trying to feel him out.”
Спенс Jr. began to pick up his power punching as the rounds went on and started to connect with left uppercuts and hooks. After round four, Bundu returned to his corner with swelling beginning to show up over his right eye.
“Once I was able to catch his rhythm and figure him out, I knew I had him,” каза Спенс Jr. “I knew he was very tough, but he never hurt me. He was switching and jumping in and out and it took me a little bit to adjust to.”
The dominance with his power punches began to wear Bundu down as the fight entered the sixth. After seemingly scoring a knockdown, which was ruled a slip by referee Johnny Callas, Спенс Jr. quickly pounced on Bundu and trapped him in the corner.
“He certainly lived up to the hype,” said Bundu, who was taken to the hospital for evaluation after the fight. “Errol was more precise than Keith Thurman. Errol threw more punches and was fresh in every round.”
It didn’t take long for Spence Jr. to take advantage as he hit Bundu with a hard left uppercut and followed with a crushing right hook that put Bundu on the mat for good and forced the referee to stop the fight at 2:06 of the sixth-round.
“I really tried to get up but I couldn’t,” said Bundu, who had never been stopped before. “I am okay though. I feel good.”
Спенс Jr. won every round on all three judges’ cards and landed a staggering 64 процента на Неговата сила удари, per Compubox.
“I think this performance showed once again that I am one of the top fighters at 147-pounds,” каза Спенс Jr.
In tape delayed action that airs on NBCSN at 9 p.m. И/6 p.m. PT, exciting featherweight contender Claudio “The Matrix” Marrero (21-1, 15 Нокаута) scored a dominant fourth-round technical knockout of fellow Dominican Republic-native Luis Hinojosa (28-10, 17 Нокаута).
“This is how champions perform,” said Marrero. “They do it smart and they figure out their opponents quickly. Regardless of his record, you have to figure it out and then go for the finish.”
Marrero was in control from the outset, putting Hinojosa on the mat with a right hand early in the first stanza. Hinojosa tried to keep himself in the fight by throwing primarily power punches. Обаче, it was Marrero who was much sharper in that department, приземяване 60 процента от силата му удари просто 24 percent from Hinojosa.
In the fourth-round Marrero’s power and style proved to be too much as he consistently beat Hinojosa to the punch on his way three fourth-round knockdowns of Hinojosa. The final barrage and knockdown forced referee Danny Schiavone to stop the bout at 2:55 на кръга.
“I’m glad that Hinojosa was brave enough to take the fight,” said Marrero. “Ще се боря никого. I don’t care how short the notice is.
“I’ve endured my loss to Jesus Cuellar and I feel like I’m back at the top of the contenders in the featherweight division. The champions keep running from me so I’m going to keep working until I’m the mandatory and can get another title shot.”
On the same day that Flint, Michigan’s Claressa Шийлдс won her second consecutive Olympic Gold medal for the U.S., women’s boxing was given another great platform as Brooklyn’s Пирен “The Heat” Издръжлив (18-0, 4 Нокаута) earned a majority decision over previously unbeaten Който изобилствува с черупки “Shelito Пътя” Vincent (18-1, 1 KO) in their 10-round bout.
“This is definitely a win for women’s boxing,” каза Харди. “We kept up a great pace throughout and the fans were invested the whole time.”
The action was non-stop from the beginning, as Vincent charged in early and often looking to close the distance between her and the taller Hardy. Hardy was the more mobile fighter as she circled the ring looking to find the right distance to attack the Providence-native.
“Every time she crowded me, she would get off more punches,” каза Харди. “I wanted to keep the fight on the outside and when I did that I had a lot of success.”
The longtime rivals were able to live up the hype that their matchup drew. The action was non-stop and it appeared that neither woman would be able to build a big lead on the scorecards.
Hardy’s movement allowed her to create more angles for her attack as she varied her offense with overhand rights, jabs and hooks. Vincent was consistent countering, especially with her left hand that yielded much success.
The punch stats reflected the exciting nature of the fight as Hardy threw 752 punches while Shelly threw 678 across 10 two-minute rounds. It was Hardy who had the advantage in punches landed as she connected on 251 удари сравнение 194 for Vincent.
“I thought I won the fight pretty convincingly,” каза Харди. “She only really caught me a few times the whole fight. I knew I had to be tactical to win the fight. Judging by the belt around my waist, I would rate my performance a 10.”
Power punches were a key to the fight, with the two combatants combining for 955 power punches thrown. Hardy’s biggest advantage came in this department as she landed over 50 percent of her power shots to 34 percent from Vincent.
В края, the judges ruled the bout a majority decision for Hardy by scores of 99-91, 97-93 и 95-95. Vincent believed she had done enough to win the fight and expressed her displeasure with the judges scores afterwards
“I definitely thought I won the fight,” said Vincent. “I was coming forward and I landed the bigger shots. Everyone saw the fight.
“I got head-butted all night long. I came here and everybody told me I’d get robbed. I’ll take the rematch but I’m not playing by these rules. I want her to come up to Providence.”

The two undefeated brawlers Hardy and Vincent are expected to bring fireworks in a matchup that has been building since Vincent showed up at Hardy’s second pro bout looking to get in the ring with the popular Brooklyn-native.
Here is what the fighters had to say Friday:
Хедър HARDY
“This is a huge step up to be on television. It’s not the top of the ladder. There’s still room to go but I’m really excited, happy and proud to be on this stage. It proves that all you have to do is be super determined, open your mouth and good things can happen.
“A lot of people have been waiting for this one. She’s done a lot of talking and I’m pretty quiet back to her. My fans know I’m going to do my talking in the ring, so there is definitely a lot of excitement leading up to this.
“I’m going to be fighting closer to home than ever. It’s an honor to be able to represent Brooklyn on the first show at the Amphitheater in Coney Island.
“When I spar, I don’t look to focus in too much on my opponent. I just want to get better. We’ve had really diverse sparring. If I improve my techniques, there is no one who can beat me and that’s the truth.
“You can prepare as much as you want, but I don’t like to over plan. We’ll go in there and figure her out in the first round. We’ve done the work that we need to.
“A lot of people have criticized some of the opponents me and Shelly have had, but we’ve honestly always had an eye on preserving our records and making sure this fight happens on television. This fight is not about my wins, but it’s about giving women boxers the opportunity to be showcased. Печалба, загуби или завърши, we’ve both opened the door for other women and that’s what’s most important.
“Тази борба означава всичко за мен. This is for everything I’ve ever stood for. I came up from nothing. I’ve spoken up about my past so that people who have walked a similar road will know what is possible with hard work and dedication. I’m here because I wanted something so bad and I wouldn’t let anybody tell me I couldn’t have it.
“I’ve fought so hard for everything and it inspires me to keep going. This is only one step. There’s so many more doors I want to open before I end my career.
“I would like to treat everyone to a boxing clinic тази неделя. Shelly is going to get a free boxing lesson from me тази неделя. Not many people can say they get that.”
SHELLY VINCENT
“This fight is going to be non-stop action. Don’t blink.”
“She’s a busy fighter. I’m smaller than her, but power-punching comes from your legs. It won’t matter. I’ve fought tall girls and I’ve fought small girls and it’s the same thing, Спечелих. The only way I leave without a victory is if I get robbed.
“I’ve been working hard. Even harder than usual. I’ve run, biked, swam miles and miles preparing for this. We didn’t leave any stone unturned getting ready for this.
“I’m not going to look for the knockout. If it comes, it comes. I’m looking for the victory. I want to attack her body. It’s there for me.
“It feels great to finally be almost time to fight. This fight couldn’t have come at a better time. Това е една чудесна възможност. We both worked hard for this. I don’t take away from what Heather does for the sport, but I’m excited to get the victory.
“I love New York. It’s always great being here and I hope I can fight here more after I win.
“I was trying to find a way to channel my anger when I was younger and it ended up being a release for me. Eventually this sport turned my whole life around so that I could help others who are like I was.
“This is great for our sport and I want it to give hope to the little girls that are coming up in the sport. I’m winning, but our sport will be the real winner. It’s an honor to fight for all the girls who came before me and didn’t get this opportunity.
JOSEPH WILLIAMS
“Training camp was very good. I feel strong and I’m ready to get in the ring в неделя. I’m sharp and really ready to fight.
“I’m a versatile fighter so I’m ready for anything. Early in the first round I’ll figure him out and start breaking him down.
“The venue looks like an amazing place to fight. If you’re coming to watch me, get there early. Вие не искате да го пропуснете.
“I want to keep working towards a title. I want to get my way down to super middleweight and I’m going to keep working every day to get a world title shot.
“Me and Errol Spence Jr. have some history. I was the 2012 Olympic team alternate, so I’ve been following his career and I’m rooting for him. It will be a good night for boxing because I definitely expect him to put on a show.
“My coaches have watched my opponent. I’m ready to adapt to anything. I trust my team and they tell me how to attack. I’m strong and ready to fight.”
JULIAN SOSA
“I’m very humbled to be on a big card again, with an opportunity to showcase my skills. I have to show how thankful I am by working hard and looking very good that night.
“Being the first boxing show at this venue means I’m a part of history. I have to make sure that my performance is memorable.
“This was the best training camp I’ve ever had and I can’t wait to display the hard work that I’ve put in the gym.
“The fan support I have means a lot. It’s really nice to have all my friends and family together and able to see me do what I love to do. There’s no better feeling than that.
“My opponent is a very aggressive fighter. The first couple of rounds we’re going to try to work the body. As we go to the later rounds, I’m going to take the knockout if it presents itself. But I’m happy to put on a beautiful boxing clinic.”
CHORDALE BOOKER
“Sparring has been really good for this fight. I’ve been going hard. I don’t take it easy on anyone during sparring because I need to be ready to fight.
“It’s really big to be a part of this kind of fight. Especially being a welterweight and with the main event being a title eliminator. I’ve looked up to Errol for a while. He’s a guy I’ve tried to pick up different things from Errol since we’re both southpaws.
“I want everyone to get there early. I’ve got power and I’m looking for a knockout.
“It means everything to fight in front of the fans in Brooklyn. I’m just really excited. My family and friends are from Brooklyn, Flatbush specifically and I’m expecting a lot of support.
“I’m excited to be boxing as a pro for the first time in my hometown. It’s even better that it’s at a new venue. It’s going to be big for me and something that I remember forever.”

Ford Amphitheater at Coney Island Boardwalk in Brooklyn
BROOKLYN (Август 16, 2016) – Undefeated featherweight contender Пирен “The Heat” Издръжлив is ready to take center stage and she has garnered the praise of the sport’s top fighters as she prepares to take on longtime rival Който изобилствува с черупки “Shelito Пътя” Vincent в Премиер боксови Champions на NBCSN действие Неделя, Август 21 from Ford Amphitheater at Coney Island Boardwalk in Brooklyn.
PBC on NBCSN coverage begins at 9 p.m. И/6 p.m. PT and features exciting contender Claudio “The Matrix” Marrero taking on unbeaten Derrick Murray. PBC on NBC is headlined by undefeated rising star Ерол “Истината” Спенс Jr. facing once-beaten contender Leonard “Лъвът” Bundu in a welterweight world title eliminator that begins at 5 p.m. И/2 p.m. PT.
Always in entertaining battles, Hardy’s punches per round stats far exceed the average for her weight class and prove why everyone believes her matchup with Vincent will be all-action. In six CompuBox-tracked fights, Hardy has averaged 83.4 punches per two-minute round, which projects to a staggering 111.2 if fought over three minutes. This number would far exceed the two men’s leaders Roman Gonzalez и Лео Santa Cruz. Her two-minute output of 83.4 punches per round would rank her fourth among the men over three minutes, ahead of hard-hitters Генадий Golovkin (68.6), Andrzej Fonfara (75.1), Orlando Salido (71) и Авенировите Mares (69.4) amongst others in the top ten.
“I think that if there is a female boxer out there that should and deserves to be seen, it’s Heather Hardy,” said former world champion Shawn Porter. “She has put tons of work in. I have seen her fight and train and she is a top competitor and a true athlete in this sport. Some people think it’s taking a chance to put women’s boxing on television, but I think Heather Hardy is the best person to take that chance on. I don’t know anyone that is more worthy of this shot.”
“Heather Hardy is always in fan friendly and entertaining fights,” said former world champion Поли Malignaggi. “Off the top of my head, I cannot think of a dull Heather Hardy fight. Още, she brings a big following and that always makes for a fun, noisy crowd and atmosphere.”
A fan-favorite in Brooklyn, Hardy has been helping to fill local venues for years including Barclays Center, where she has fought seven times as a pro. Сега, her long awaited matchup with the unbeaten New Englander Vincent has given her the opportunity to show her talents on a bigger stage.
“I couldn’t be happier for my fellow Brooklynite Heather Hardy,” said middleweight world champion Daniel Jacobs. “This is a tremendous opportunity to showcase her talents on TV, and one that she has rightfully earned. This is huge, not only for her, bur for women’s boxing in general.”
“I think it’s a great for Heather to get this opportunity,” каза Спенс Jr. “It’s not common that we see women’s boxing on television but there are a lot of women who deserve it. This is great for them and it’s great for the sport.”
“Heather has been working incredibly hard and grinding for years,” said former world champion Chris Algieri. “It’s great to see her get the exposure she deserves after the time and commitment she has put in to get to this point. She’s one of the most consistent performers in the local area and it’s time for the rest of the world to see her hard work and skills.”

BROOKLYN (Юни 26, 2016) – Prizefighting returned to CBS в събота with a Fight of the Year candidate as undefeated welterweight world champion Keith Търман edged former world champion Shawn Porter in a close but unanimous decision scored 115-113 by all three ringside judges.

 

The 12,718 fans in attendance at Barclays Center in Brooklyn and the viewers across the U.S. watching the first primetime boxing event on CBS since Muhammed Ali-Leon Spinks in 1978 were treated to a slugfest between two of the brightest stars in boxing’s glamour division.

 

Търман (27-0, 22 Нокаута) and Porter (26-2-1, 16 Нокаута) combined to throw over 1200 punches in the SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING on CBS event, представени от Premier Boxing Champions. The marquee showdown was a story of accuracy vs. дейност, as Thurman landed 50 процента на Неговата сила снимки, в сравнение с 38 percent for Porter, и 44 percent of his total punches compared to just 36 percent for the challenger. While Thurman landed at a higher percentage, Porter was the busier fighter, throwing over 100 more punches across 12 кръга.

 

“One Time” and “Showtime” delivered as advertised, with the powerful sharpshooter buckling Porter multiple times, while the swarming and smothering Porter barreled forward to bully Thurman into the ropes. And while there were no knockdowns, the back-and-forth blockbuster never lacked action and culminated in a standing ovation in the second-highest attended boxing event in Barclays Center history.

 

“I want to thank Shawn Porter for a tremendous fight. He’s a great warrior,” said Thurman. “Defense is the key to victory. He smothers his punches a lot and makes it difficult for the judges to score. I was able to rock him with clear, effective blows and I believe that was the difference today.

 

“I would give him a rematch. It was great fight. He was a great opponent. Everyone was saying would he be my toughest opponent to date. I wasn’t able to drop him but I did buckle him a few times.”

The former world champion Porter, a perennial underdog but consummate gentleman, didn’t complain about being on the losing end of his second close decision in a title bout.

 

“We worked hard, Keith is a great champion,” Porter said. “My dad says to keep your head up. Мисля, че спечелих битката, but I’m satisfied because the competitor came out тази вечер.

 

“We need that rematch. I know the fans want that rematch. If he gives me another chance, I’m going to work hard in the ring and leave with his title.”

 

The opening bout of the CBS telecast featured a matchup of undefeated super welterweights as Джарет Хърд graduated from prospect to legitimate contender in the stacked 154-pound class with a dominating 10тата round TKO over Oscar Molina.

 

Хърд (18-0, 12 Нокаута) got to work early, flooring Molina for the first time in his career in the opening round with a powerful counter right uppercut. The bigger and taller Hurd was the more active fighter from the outset, dismantling the previously unbeaten Mexican Olympian with a supremely effective inside game. Hurd threw nearly 750 punches over 10 кръга, в сравнение с едва 376 for Molina, свързване на 220 power shots at a nearly 40 percent clip.

 

Hurd put a stamp on his performance in the final round, closing the show by out landing Molina 33-7 in the final round. With Molina taking a brutal beating and seemingly defenseless in the final minute of the final round, Ricky Gonzalez stepped in to halt the contest at 2:02.

 

“This is definitely a big win for my career,- каза Хърд. “He was taking a lot of shots, but he knew how to survive. It was a big uppercut that knocked him down in round one. People know from my last fight that I have a great right uppercut. He was hurt a couple of times. I don’t think it was a bad stoppage. Molina is a very tough guy who just kept coming through.

 

“This fight here puts me up with the top contenders in the division. I felt like I could have gone three or four more rounds. I was getting stronger as the fight went on. We’re going right back to the gym so we can get in there again.”

 

Molina (13-1-1, 10 Нокаута) protested, but barring a stunning knockout he was just seconds away from suffering the first loss of his career via a unanimous decision.

 

“I felt like Hurd was throwing a lot of punches in the tenth round but they weren’t really hurting me,” Molina said. “He was staying busy but he was never really hurting me.

 

“I went low and I had my head down and he caught me with that uppercut in the first round. He got me with a shot I wasn’t expecting but it was definitely a flash knockdown. Не е наранен.

 

“I was supposed to use my footwork a lot more but I ended up smothering my shots. He had an awkward defense with a lot of bending down and I couldn’t get into a rhythm.

 

“This was a big opportunity for me and I felt like I fought a good fight. I’m going to come back stronger. We’re going to work on a lot of things and get back in there.”

Earlier in the evening on SHOWTIME, undefeated heavyweight sensation Anthony Joshua successfully defended his IBF Heavyweight World Championship for the first time with a seventh round knockout of previously unbeaten American Dominic Breazeale at The O2 in London. VIDEO: http://s.sho.com/28VGgsa

 

Below are quotes from Joshua after Събота win on SHOWTIME BOXING INTERNATIONAL:

 

Many thought that Dominic Breazeale wouldn’t be able to stand up to your power and speed, but were you grateful for the opportunity to work a little bit more of your boxing skills?

“Well, it’s hard because you can see they’re hurt with every shot – well not every shot – but when you start catching them flush, they can feel the shots with these ten ounce gloves on. Така, it’s just a matter of time, but in the process I didn’t want to be receiving any haymakers on the way back.

 

“It’s been tough I had two weeks off after my last fight, and got straight back in the gym so it was tough. I get a nice little break for once and then I can come back with recharged batteries.”

 

We know Deontay Wilder was watching the fight. Have you got a message for him, the WBC Champion?

“Unbelievable inspirational person. He was patient, 30-odd fights [и] got his hands on the WBC [belt]. I’m following suit. I’m making my way into the U.S. with SHOWTIME backing me as well. Така, he watched that.

 

“He can pick up whatever he wants to pick up from that, but it’s so different when you’re in the ring with each other. So one day we’ll get to experience what each other’s about.”

 

Who do you want to fight next?

“Well I think it’s gonna have to be the likes of [Joseph] Parker. I was really looking at Fury… I hope he gets better soon. He hurt his ankle unfortunately, which has postponed it because I was hoping to get that some time in the winter if everything went well July 9th like it didтази вечер, but we’re gonna have to reschedule that and in the meantime, we can look at other opponents like Parker, if he’s vacant, or anyone else that the people want.”

 

What do you think that you still need to work on?

“Rest. I need to rest. Уморен съм, I’m working hard and as I said, now i can get

The press conference took place at the Dream Hotel PHD Rooftop in downtown Manhattan. Ето какво участниците трябваше да се каже, Четвъртък:
КИЙТ Търман
“It’s an honor to be on this platform. I’m excited to be back at Barclays Center. My last fight at Barclays Center was the first time I felt the fans give me love and I felt like I made it.
“I’m excited to feel the energy in the arena. We’re recovered and we’re ready. We did what we needed to so that we’re ready forСъбота нощ.
“As I think about this fight, these are dreams coming true for me. Sometimes I feel like I’m living a dream. I think about how I was raised by Ben Getty to this moment. Ben used to say that my moment was ‘right around the corner,’ and now it’s here. He was a wise man and he knew what he was talking about.
“This is a great fight. This is what the boxing fans want to see. I truly believe you are looking at two of the best welterweights in the world.
“I’m here as an entertainer. I’m here for the love of the sport. The fans want to see these kinds of fights. It’s obvious in the welterweight division that we are the two most exciting and devastating fighters in the division.
“Everybody kept talking about the sparring video, so I just decided to put it out. Sparring is sparring and fighting is fighting. This fight will be judged and this time I’ll have eight-ounce gloves on.
“It’s always been my dream to be the undisputed champion of the world.
“I’m looking forward to a great performance. I’m excited to a great challenge from Shawn Porter. There is a burning desire within myself to have a knockout victory. It’s hard to make world-class fighters quit. The fans ultimately want to see that knockout victory.
“There are real stakes are on the line тази събота нощ. Our careers are on the line. My title is on the line. My undefeated record is on the line. It’s a great fight and a great matchup.
“I do believe that with each and every fight, you step up, you step up and you step up. Така, thus the stakes are always higher and there are those times where you get a decent fight. Но както казах, this is a great fight at a great moment of both athletes’ кариери. We are both in our prime. I’m 27-years-old, Shawn is 28-years-old, we’ve both accomplished many great things and a victory в събота night is just going to be another thing to add to the resume.
“This really is the best fight of the best. We’re trying to satisfy the fans and we’re trying to challenge ourselves, push ourselves, and see where we fit in and how great we really are. I’m going to show you Събота night how great Keith “One Time” Thurman really is.
“Just like Ali said, Събота нощ, I’m going to show you how great I am.”
Шон PORTER
“Тук е. It’s been long anticipated and it’s here. I have never been more excited to fight in my life. Това е благословия. Along this journey I’ve been able to learn the basics and excel in the basics and I found myself in a position where I’ve been able to be very successful.
“My hometown Cleveland Cavaliers winning the NBA title is definitely a motivation. It motivates me to be a winner. I want to bring this belt back to Ohio.
“I’m looking forward to this kind of moment to shine. That’s how you gain notoriety and become bigger. Няма никакъв натиск, just excitement.
“I’m just looking forward to getting in there and getting that energetic feeling. I want to feel the excitement of getting into the ring and all the adrenaline that rushes through.
“This is the fight I wanted. I wanted to have fun training for a fight like this. Keith has made it possible. He’s so good it pushes me to be better.
“This isn’t the first time and it won’t be the last time that two friends fight. I’m done talking about us being friends because it’s time for us to start punching each other. My plan is to have great defense, avoid getting hit and win the fight.
“I didn’t take much time off after the postponement. We tried to train and stay ready through the cancellation. You never know when the phone is going to ring. We just wanted to stay in shape, get better and be ready for anything.
“I feel like if Floyd Mayweather comes back, he should fight the winner of this matchup. I believe that will be me.
“I’m not going to go in there looking for a knockout and throw my hands wildly. I’m going to keep up the pace that I normally keep up. I’m a great boxer. People consider me a boxer, but I may surprise you.”
ДЖАРЕТ ХЪРД
“I’m thankful for this opportunity. This is a great shot for me right now. In my last fight I had an opportunity similar to this. I was a fill-in for television and I did what I was supposed to do.
“Success is accomplished when preparation meets opportunity. I know things like this can happen. It doesn’t change anything. We’re going to go out and do what we trained for.
“You always get butterflies before getting in the ring but that’s normal. Molina is very experienced and has good hand speed but I know what I can do. We’re ready for this.
“I’m happy to be on this stage. This could be the biggest fight of the year and I’m extremely blessed to open it up.
“I’m going to go out there and put on another terrific performance. Molina, he’s an Olympian and he has a lot of experience. He’s a crafty fighter and we’re going to do what we have to do to get the victory.
“We’re ready to do what we’re going to do. Това ще бъде голяма борба в събота нощ.”
OSCAR MOLINA
“Готов съм за това. I’m more than ready for this. These type of fights are what gets me up to train.
“This guy I’m fighting is young, undefeated and a prospect like myself. I know he’s going to be ready and it’s going to be a tough fight but I’m ready for him.
“This is a huge deal for me. I was already excited to be on this huge undercard. When they told me that I was moving up to CBS I knew how big of an opportunity it is for me and my career.
“Hurd is a tall and lanky fighter. I saw his last fight and I see that he does well with guys who are flat footed. My boxing skills and my footwork are something he’s never seen before. Frank Galarza was tailor-made for Hurd and I think I’m going to be able to give him different looks.
“I’m a boxer-puncher and I can adapt to different styles. I also have power for big knockouts but my boxing skills are most important.
“Fighting in the Olympics taught me to adapt to different styles. I have a fan-friendly style and I’m excited to put on a show.”
DAN BIRMINGHAM, Thurman’s Trainer
“We’re ready for this fight. Keith trains hard every day and we know Shawn and Kenny well. I’ve brought them to my gym and these two guys have gone a lot of rounds together.
“I think Keith Thurman is the most gifted guy in boxing. He does everything right. Събота night we’re looking for a great fight and I know in my heart that we will be victorious.”
KEN PORTER, Отец Портър & Треньор
“Това е страхотно да бъда тук. It’s great to be on this stage with Shawn. This isn’t something we just started getting ready for, this is something he’s been getting ready for since birth. I always had a mindset to put Shawn in a position to excel in life. He has not disappointed.
“I know these guys are going to give it everything they have. It will be 100 percent for as long as it lasts. We’re prepared to take the championship. These are great guys here to the right, но в събота we’re bringing everything to the table.
“We’re coming to deliver a great show. Enjoy yourselves в събота нощ.”
LOU DIBELLA, Президентът на DiBella Entertainment
“This is what it’s all about. Тази събота нощ, the best is fighting the best. It’s right here in Brooklyn on CBS. It’s the first fight on CBS in primetime since Muhammad Ali fought over 30 Преди години.
“This is a terrific card from top to bottom. There is a tremendous undercard, a great co-feature and a main event that boxing fans have been waiting for a long time.
“This is an undercard chock full of talent. You will want to get there early as there are evenly matched bouts all night.
“SHOWTIME has highlighted the 154-pound division in recent shows, so it makes sense that there will be another significant matchup in that division on CBS Събота night with Jarrett Hurd and Oscar Molina.
“We’re not going to talk about friendship and respect anymore with these two guys, that’s in the past and the future. These guys know their future is dependent on beating up the other guy and a fight of this magnitude makes the stakes even higher.
“The best want to fight the best and it starts Събота нощ. The winner of this fight wants to be the best in the world. Both men want to be an undisputed welterweight champion.”
СТИВЪН Еспиноза, Изпълнителен вицепрезидент & Генерален мениджър, Шоу Спорт
“Юни 25 is a very special day and night for us at CBS. It begins with the heavyweight world title being contested between Anthony Joshua and Dominic Breazeale and then the return of boxing to primetime CBS for the first time in almost 40 години.
“This was an easy fight to make. Shawn and Keith, neither one hesitated for a second in taking this fight. All credit goes to them for taking this fight. It’s a difficult fight for both on a big stage.
“Boxing takes criticism for not making the right fights at the right time. One of the bad habits we have is that we spend time thinking about fights that might get made. But now we have the right fight, at the right time and at the right venue. It’s a disservice to not recognize that what is going в събота is very special and very exciting.”
BRETT YORMARK, CEO of Brooklyn Sports & Забавление
“It’s an exciting week at Barclays Center. Тази вечер we host the NBA Draft, the weigh-in утре and our big event Съботанощ. The momentum is building for this fight and we are on pace for the biggest crowd for a boxing event since we opened.
“We are excited about bringing a great night of fights to Brooklyn. We welcome Keith Thurman and Shawn Porter back to Brooklyn as they have both fought there once before.
“It’s become tradition to have both of you fight in our ring and we know how popular you are with our fans and we love to have you back.
“This will be the first primetime fight on CBS since the first Muhammad Ali-Leon Spinks fight in 1978 and it’s a big moment for the boxing community for sure. We look forward to hosting everyone в събота нощ.”

TOP WELTERWEIGHTS: THURMAN-PORTER WINNER TOO CLOSE TO CALL

Това Събота, Юни 25, Live in Primetime at 9 p.m. И/6 p.m. PT на CBS
Кликнете ТУК For PBC Fighter Prediction Video
NEW YORK (Юни 22, 2016) – Their peers in the welterweight division – световни шампиони, former champions, contenders and top prospects – can’t pick a definitive winner between defending WBA 147-pound king Keith “One Time” Търман (26-0, 22 Нокаута) и бивш световен шампион “Showtime” Shawn Porter (26-1-1, 16 Нокаута).
The majority of the fighters polled – some of whom are potential opponents down the line for the winner – lean toward Thurman, but most all concede that Събота eagerly awaited main event of a SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING® на събитието на CBS, представени от Premier Boxing Champions (9 p.m. И/6 p.m. PT) at Barclays Center is going to be an intense, вълнуващ, tight fight from start to finish that could go either way.
Here’s how the boxers see “Търман срещу. Износване”:
Дани Гарсия (Шампион на WBC в полусредна категория): “I think this is a great matchup. Thurman has the boxing ability and the movement while Shawn Porter is the aggressor and he’s going to bring the heat. To be honest with you it’s a 50-50 борба, but I would give the edge to Keith Thurman by a very close decision.”
Кел Brook (Шампион в полусредна категория на IBF):”This is a great fight, one I can’t wait to watch. If Shawn can stick to his boxing I think he can become world champion again on points, but Keith is heavy-handed and he could walk Shawn onto one – it’s really a pick ’em fight for me.”
Ерол Спенс Jr. (Непобеждаван Welterweight Contender): “I think this is a great fight between young fighters with good skill. Shawn throws a lot of punches while Thurman is a boxer who can punch too. I know Shawn will be aggressive and it should make for a great fight. If Keith can box and keep Shawn Porter on the outside I see Keith Thurman winning. If Shawn stays on the inside and stays in the chest of Keith, I see him winning.”
Други Берто (Former Welterweight Champion): “Shawn is going to come, but I think Keith will be on his toes and box but also drop hard shots as well when Shawn comes in. Keith can be very versatile in there and has a lot of great skills, while Shawn is more like a bull. Keith will hurt or knock Shawn down but will keep coming all night.”
Sammy Vazquez (Непобеждаван Welterweight Contender): “Shawn is a pressure fighter and Thurman used to be a pressure fighter but now he boxes. It’s really hard for me to decide who is going to come out on top. Thurman has good power. It all depends on how Shawn is able to take Thurman’s punches. I think Thurman because of the power but Shawn will bring it for 12 кръга.”
Robert Guerrero (Former Welterweight Champion): “This is a fight the fans are going to love watching. Both Thurman and Porter bring exciting styles to the ring. I think if Porter can keep the fight on the inside he’ll have a better chance to come out victorious. But Keith Thurman is a very smart and powerful fighter and will make the right adjustments. I just think Thurman is going to outbox Porter. I’m picking Thurman to win by decision in a very tough fight.”
Luis Колазо (Former Welterweight Champion): “I’m not sure who the favorite is, but I’m going with Porter. I like his style and I think it’s going to be interesting to see how Thurman holds up with the pressure Porter is going to bring.”
Devon Alexander (Former Welterweight Champion): “Това е един много вълнуващ двубой. Both fighters are come forward type fighters and they swing for the fences when they throw. I don’t know who will come out on top because they have similar styles. Shawn Porter has decent power, but out of the two Keith has the more power. Ще видим. This is boxing.”

Sugar Ray Leonard & Thomas Hearns, Две Зала на славата шампиони в тежка категория, Претегляне на Кийт Търман-Шон Портър 147-фунтово първенство на битката в Barclays Center в събота, Юни 25 На живо на CBS

“Победителят в Thurman-Porter веднага ще се премести в
пентхаус в средна категория” – Leonard
“Знам, че и Портър, и Търман имат възможността да се измъкнат един от друг. Ще бъде въпрос кой ще стигне до кой пръв.” –Hearns
NEW YORK (Юни 20, 2016) – Sugar Ray Leonard и Thomas “Наемен убиец” Hearns може да бъде уникално квалифициран да говори за това какъв шампион в средна категория на WBA Keith “One Time” Търман и “Showtime” Shawn Porter се замислят и чувстват, че се насочват към битката си, която изправя двама мъже един срещу друг, които са в примите си в силно заредена битка за върховенство в натоварената с талант дивизия в полутежка категория.
Очакваните заглавия на изчакване SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP Бокс® на CBS представен от Премиер боксови Champions (PBC) с телевизионно покритие, започващо от 9 p.m. И/6 p.m. PT.
Леонард имаше запис от 30-1 с 21 KO и притежава титлата в полутежка категория на WBC, когато взе Hearns, който е бил 32-0 с 30 KO и притежава титлата на WBA, в мач от 15-ти кръг за обединяване на титлата в Лас Вегас на септември 16, 1981. Мачът беше таксуван като “Показването” и имаше световна телевизионна аудитория от 300 милион.
Битката беше битка назад и напред, но изглежда, че Hearns контролира, като спечели кръгове от девет до края 12 и на трите съдии’ скоркарти. Беше между кръгове 12 и 13 този треньор на Леонард, покойният Анджело Дънди, знаменито изкрещя на Леонард: “Сега го духаш, син! Надуваш!”
Leonard, с лявото око силно подути, обърна прилива в 14тата кръг, като залита Hearns с надвиснал десен и след това приковава Hearns по въжетата и отприщва бараж от удари, което подтикна съдията Дейви Пърл да спре двубоя, давайки победата на Леонард и го направи безспорен шампион в полутежка категория и цар на дивизията. По време на спирането Hearns беше водещ на трите показатели – 124-122, 125-122 и 125-121.
“Това беше най-трудната битка в живота ми. Трябваше всяка унция воля и сили, за да победи Томи Хърнс. Не бих могъл да взема толкова много от тези в моята кариера,” - каза Леонард. “Битката с Томи Хърнс беше тази, която ме заведе в мезонета.”
Леонард почувства, че победата над Хърнс го изстреля в суперзвезда. Той вярва, че същото нещо очаква победителя от „Търман-Портър“.
Чува за двубоя: “Исках да покажа на света си бокс способности. Знаеха, че мога да нокаутирам хората, но те не знаеха, че мога да боксирам много добре”
И Леонард и Хърнс казаха, че с нетърпение очакват мача между Търман и Портър, защото вярват, че това ще държи точно толкова драма, колкото и мачът им 35 Преди години.
“Да, можете да направите сравнението,” - каза Леонард. “И двете момчета са на върха на дивизията в полутежка категория. Единственото, което е различно е, че аз и Томи бяхме толкова добре познати от феновете на спорта. Бяхме по телевизията много, и точно това изгради имената ни и даде шанс на хората да ни видят толкова много. И това е, което правят сега с PBC и предаванията в мрежовата телевизия. Това може да е битка като нашата. Кой знае? Но знам, че феновете чакат този двубой.”
КАК ДА СЕ ПРЕДПОЧИТЕТЕ ДА СЕ НАПРАВЕТЕ НА НАЙ-ДОБРИЯ ЧОВЕК В РАЗПРЕДЕЛЕНИЕТО ВИ?
Hearns: “Винаги е трудно да се подготвиш за подобен човек, защото мислиш какъв ще бъде резултатът и какви са шансовете ти да спечелиш двубоя. Никога не съм мислил за загуба, но се замислих какви са шансовете ми.
Знаех, че ако изляза и се боксирам така, както знаех, че мога да боксирам, Бих бил Рей. Само мисълта да се бия с Рей ми донесе много въпроси. Някои имах отговори, а други не. Повечето други момчета, които знаех, че мога да изляза и да ги нокаутирам.”
КАКВО ВЗЕМЕ ВЕЧЕ ЗА ТОЗИ МАТУП?
LEONARD: “Просто сърцето на Кийт и Шон. И двете момчета имат сърце и и двете имат такава воля. Това спокойствие. Не можеш да научиш самообладание. Това е нещо, което имаш или нямаш. Не можете да научите това. Толкова дълбоко, дълбока самообладание, когато лявото ви око е затворено и черният ви дроб е спукан и трябва да станете на платното.”
Hearns: “Знам, че Търман и Портър имат способността да се измъкнат един от друг. Ще бъде въпрос кой ще стигне до кой пръв. Определено гледам. Надявам се да съм там лично.”
КАК ВАЖНО Е МЕНТАЛНИЯТ АСПЕКТ НА ТАЗИ МАТЧ?
Hearns: “Знам какво е да се караш срещу някой, когото хората не смятат, че можеш да победиш. Трябва да се подготвите за това. Това е ментален етап, през който преминавате, как подготвяш ума си. Ако можете да контролирате ума си и да кажете на тялото си какво ще правите, тогава можете да го направите. Не можете да се притеснявате колко добре може да удря другият човек. Просто стойте настрана. Продължавайте да слагате тази пръчка върху него и той няма да може да ви удари.”
КАКВО ВАШЕТО МЕНТАЛНОСТ Влезе в мача ПРОТИВ ЛЕОНАРД?
Hearns: “Не дойдох да си отида 12 или 15 кръга. Дойдох да ти ударя дупето и се прибрах. Нямах желание да отида 15 кръга. Тренирах за това, но аз никога не отивах 15 кръга.”
КАКВО ВАШЕТО МЕНТАЛНОСТ Влезе в мача СРЕЩУ СЛУШИТЕ?
LEONARD: “Чувствах, че мога да победя всеки. Брат ми Роджър не мислеше, че мога да победя Томи. Той не ми каза, докато свърши. В тренировъчен лагер използвах бокс Роджър и той щеше да кацне на много правилни ръце. Реши, че ако дясната ръка на Томи се приземи към мен, ще свърши. Брат ми нямаше много доверие в мен.”

Born and raised in the area, Thurman worked out at St. Pete Boxing Club along with longtime trainer Dan Birmingham as he prepared for his primetime battle against the strong and dangerous Porter.
Ето какво участниците трябваше да се каже, сряда:
КИЙТ Търман
“Muhammad Ali opened up the door for so many people. Michael Jordan changed the game in our era, but Ali did it so long ago. He showed people that boxing is a great sport and can be the most entertaining sport in the world.
“За мен, it’s almost like a dream come true. It’s surreal. I remember at an early age in boxing saying, ‘I want to be the guy that brings boxing back.’ I’m really blessed to be where I am in my career. For all the fighters who could end up on this stage, I’m proud that I’ve been chosen.
“I’ve always considered myself a knockout artist. Back to when I was a teenager knocking out grown men in headgear. Ever since then, I’ve been dropping people like a bad habit.
“I love being a power-puncher. My favorite fighter of all time is Mike Tyson. One of my goals that I set when I was a kid was to have more knockouts than Mike Tyson throughout my career.
“I’m ready for Shawn Porter. We’re going to box harder, box stronger and box better. I will be the better man.
“Training is the fundamentals of getting one prepared. We’ve always known that Shawn Porter was going to come into this fight in tremendous shape. That’s what his training methods are all about. But the Energizer Bunny has never been hit by Keith Thurman, and I’m pretty sure I could stop it in its tracks.
“Отивам за нокаут. I’ve stated it before. My hands are itching for a knockout. I’m ‘One Time,’ през цялото време. That’s my philosophy. Every single time I step into the ring I’m looking for the knockout. We don’t get paid for overtime.
“This is an opportunity to showcase our talents and our skills to the world. The winner will have an opportunity to be the head guy in the sport. I’ve always wanted to have a legacy in the sport of boxing.
“I want to be the undisputed welterweight champion of the world. That’s my ultimate goal. There have only been so many in the history of boxing. I want to be a part of that history.”
DAN BIRMINGHAM, Thurman’s Trainer
“Keith is a guy who deserves to be on this stage. He has a lot of experience and he’s come into his own. This is the kind of thing that happens when you work hard.
“Life happens. Keith was involved in the accident and so we took the necessary rest. He saw the right doctors and we’re back now. We’re ready for Shawn Porter.
“We’re constantly conditioning. We’re working on attacking his style. He’s a short, come-forward brawler who’s going to try to come into Keith’s chest and make it a war. We’re making out adjustments.
“Keith has to be busier, more in charge fighter. He has to work off of his jab and then his power will keep Porter at bay.”
