In the opening bout of the Març 3 doble cartellera, Andre Dirrell and Jose Uzcategui will meet for the Interim IBF Super Middleweight World Championship in an immediate rematch of one of 2017’s best and most controversial fights.
Charlo vs. Centeno will now be a featured bout on the previously announced Abril 21 SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast presented by Premier Boxing Champions. Four-division world champion Adrien Broner will face undefeated former champion Omar Figueroa and one of boxing’s brightest young stars, Gervonta Davis, returns to the ring as the 23-year-old undefeated former champion looks to regain a title in the 130-pound class.

“It happened during sparring. I tried to work through the pain and as the day progressed and the adrenaline subsided I had to go to the ER and get checked out. It’s a good enough injury that it had to be postponed. Nothing was broken, but it was severe enough to keep me from fighting.
“I was just about to peak. Now I have to taper off a bit and cut back to let my body recover and then pick it up and get some momentum back.”
“Estic llest per anar,” Said Charlo. “Estic 167 lliura a hores d'ara, and this was the best camp I’ve ever had. I’m so disappointed. I’m at a loss for words. When you want something so bad and you don’t get it, you can’t be a kid about it. You just have to deal with it.
“I’m hungry and I’m ready to get back in the ring. I’m still coming to the fight though. I’m going be there to support Deontay. I love Barclays Center and all my fans in Brooklyn.”

Ortiz spoke on a variety of topics as he heads into the highly anticipated showdown with Wilder. Here is what Ortiz had to say from training camp in Miami:
On Deontay Wilder…
“He’s talking too much. He’s going to have to back that up in the ring. He says he’s going to kill ‘King Kong.’ He’s going to knock me out. I want to watch him try. I’m not like those other guys he fought. Sóc un veritable lluitador. Tough and with a lot of experience. I’ve been fighting since I was 10 anys.
“He doesn’t intimidate me. His trash talk makes me laugh. It’s just a lot of noise. Tinc gana. I’m doing this for my family. He better take me seriously because he’s going to find himself on the canvas before he knows it. I’m going to show the world who ‘King Kong’ is.”
On his confrontation with Wilder after Ortiz’s last fight…
“Someone told me Wilder was in the crowd, I smiled. I was glad to see him. I knew what he wanted.
“I’m not the kind that likes to trash talk, but I’ve had it with this guy. He talks too much. He has a big mouth. He has insulted me and has said too many dumb things. So when I saw him ringside I told him to get inside the ring and to tell the world once and for all that he was going to fight me. He says he wants to fight the top fighters. I’m a top fighter. Let’s do it.”
On testing positive for a banned substance during training for the first scheduled fight against Wilder…
“A lot of people that believe in me and know me well, know that I would not do anything that can jeopardize my future as a boxer. I have too much at stake: la meva família, my children and the possibility to provide for them.
“I had been taking that medicine for two years. It was my mistake not to disclose that prescription drug in the paperwork. I never thought a prescription was going to bring me so much trouble. I was taking this medicine to treat high blood pressure, but apparently it’s also used to go to the bathroom a lot and mask other things. I drink two gallons of water per day. I go to the bathroom a lot already. I never put two and two together. I’m clean. The dose they found in my system was too low to mask anything at all. If I would have known this prescription drug was not allowed, I would have told my trainer and my doctor.
“I’m a heavyweight I don’t need to make weight. Why am I going to go to the trouble of taking an illegal substance that makes you go to the bathroom a lot? I have no need. I simply didn’t know it was banned. If I would have known, I would have said something to my trainer or to the doctors.
“I think the fight was not meant to be at that point in time last year. Destiny played a part. It was supposed to be postponed. Now there are no excuses.”
On how important this fight is for him…
“Every fight I’ve had in my career has been important. The key is always to avoid thinking that it’s win or die because that can put you off center. So the way I see it is that this fight is important for me because I have to win it. And I’m going to. It’s a world championship, but for me it’s just another day at work. My only goal is to win this fight. Victòria. Victòria. Victòria. By winning this fight, everything else unfolds. I get a title and I help my family.”
On what’s going to happen on fight night…
“When I get in the ring, all I will be thinking about is the strategy we put together in the gym. My family is always there. They go to every fight. That was my promise to them when I had to leave them behind in Cuba to come to the United States. They will come with me wherever I go. If I gas out, I look at them and they keep me going. They are my motivation and they will help me achieve this victory.”

The hotly contested first match between Dirrell and Uzcategui, which was also for the IBF interim world title, ended in controversy after Uzcategui was disqualified for landing a punch after the bell sounded to end the eighth round. Dirrell was dropped and knocked out by the punch. The referee ruled that the punch was intentional and disqualified Uzcategui. In the IBF mandated rematch, Dirrell and Uzcategui will look to put themselves in position to fight for the super middleweight title that Caleb Truax recently earned via a majority decision over James DeGale.
Dirrell (26-2, 16 KOs), a bronze medal winner for the 2004 U.S. Olympic boxing team, continues his quest for a world championship. The 34-year-old southpaw from Flint, Michigan lost a split decision to Carl Froch in his first attempt in 2009 and dropped a narrow unanimous decision to DeGale in his next attempt in 2015.
“I’m extremely excited to be a part of one of the most dynamic tripleheaders this year,” Dirrell said. “This time around I’ll be phenomenal and leave no doubt who the better fighter is. Estic 100 percent focused on dominating Uzcategui on March 3 and getting another shot at the title.”
The 27-year-old Uzcategui (26-2, 22 KOs), who is from Venezuela and now lives in Tijuana, Mèxic, worked his way up to the match against Dirrell with a string of four straight stoppage victories, including a stunning upset of Julian Jackson in 2015. Uzcategui dropped Jackson four times on the way to a second round technical knockout victory.
“I’m very excited to go get what’s mine,” Said Uzcátegui. “I feel I won the last fight. I didn’t feel I did anything wrong. What happened in the last fight is in the past. I’m going to get what belongs to me. The world will see what ‘Bolivita’ can do and they’ll want to see more of me.”

LOS ANGELES (Febrer. 9, 2018) – Just days after the birth of his daughter, American heavyweight world champion Deontay Wilder met with members of the Southern California media dijous as he prepares to defend his WBC Heavyweight World Championship against fellow-undefeated challenger Luis Ortiz Dissabte, Març 3 en viu per SHOWTIME a Barclays Center, la casa de BROOKLYN BOXA ™.
Wilder and his girlfriend, fellow “WAGS Atlanta” star Telli Swift welcomed their daughter into the world el dimarts before Wilder turned his focus to Març 3, climbing in the ring at Team Watson Boxing Club in the San Fernando Valley to work out with his Los Angeles-based trainer Mark Breland, the former U.S. Olympics gold medalist and former WBC Welterweight World Champion.
The 32-year-old Wilder owns a perfect record of 39 victòries, zero losses and 38 nocauts. Fighting out of his hometown of Tuscaloosa, Ala., ell era un 2008 Olympic Bronze Medalist and is the only reigning American heavyweight world champion. The 6-foot-7 Wilder faces the toughest opponent of his career in Ortiz, a 6-foot-4 Cuban who owns a professional record of 28-0 amb 24 nocauts.
Here is what Wilder had to say dijous:
Deontay WILDER:
“Once I unify all the titles then line up the mandatories, I’ll easily get to 50-0. I’m not a 12-round fighter, and I don’t get overtime. I’m a knockout artist. So that being said, I don’t take much damage, but I give all the damage. I put people in the hospitals. I put people in stretchers. When you fight me your head is not the same when you leave. When you fight me you’re really signing a death warrant.
“This is one of the biggest fights of my career and I’m up for the challenge. I’m going to pass with flying colors.
“Ortiz has got that reputation of being the bogeyman but I’ve never been scared of the bogeyman. For that reason, I wanted him. A lot of people have been avoiding him, even champions that are champions to this day have avoided Luis Ortiz. But this champion right here took on the opportunity.
Even when [Ortiz] failed the drug test once, I still blessed him again because I’m very adamant about what I want to do. Vull lluitar amb els millors. I say I’m the best. I say it very proudly, I say it very confidently. I say it so boldly and I want to show the world that I don’t play around. If I say it, I really mean what I say. I don’t have time to waste.
“If he fails again then somebody’s going to need to go whoop his ass. The public needs to whoop his ass. All of Miami should get up and do that. The first time, a lot of people spent a lot of time and a lot of money for tickets and he did what he did. A lot of people were enraged. I heard it and a lot of people blamed me, which I don’t know why. Però, with this fight right here and what I did with my last performance, it makes it even better. It intensifies the whole fight. Així, if he [fails his drug test again] then shame on him. I feel sorry for his soul and his life. I don’t think he’s going to do that. I think he has a lot of responsibilities in his hands right now. At this point in time he knows he needs to do the right thing. Three times is not the charm in all instances.”
“I don’t focus on what these guys are doing. I don’t focus on what their strengths are. I just focus on me. I focus on what I’m capable of doing. I focus on what I’m going to do and when I tell people I’m going to do something, you know I’m going to do it. At the end of the day that’s what my father taught me. There weren’t any contracts back in the day, it was just the shake of a hand. And if you said something and you didn’t abide by it, there’s consequences to your actions, to your words. To this day, I abide by that. Així, if I say I’m going to do something it’s guaranteed to be done.”
On his lifestyle outside of boxing:
“I just think life itself is just mental. I do a lot of visualization. I do a lot of meditation. It strengthens my mind to go through a lot of the situations that I go through. Having a baby and being on a reality show, all of that is fun stuff. Some people know how to maintain it and some people don’t. I’m just a guy that multitasks a lot of things. I can do a lot of things. Even when I’m talking to you, my mind can be in so many different places right now and still be able to comprehend and interact with you. Així, I think I was meant for a lot of things. Boxing is just not what all I can do. I’m so talented in so many different areas.
“I’m a laid back guy. In my personal life I’m just a cool, calm and collected dude that likes to live life and I love peace. Desafortunadament, in what I do in the ring, I turn into the ‘Bronze Bomber’ and the ‘Bronze Bomber’ don’t get caught by none.”
On being on reality TV and recognized by non-boxing fans:
“I think it’s very important. People need to know who the heavyweight champion of the world is. America got a bad man, an ass-whooper, right in America. I think it’s important and people should understand and should know who that is. That’s why I do the things I do. That’s why I’m so competitive. That’s why I speak the way I speak. Sometimes it may annoy people, it may get on people’s nerves and I never hear it in front of my face, but I understand it. I do it to show people that I’m going to speak it and you’re going to see me deliver it. I think you get the most respect when you say something you’re going to do and you do it. Look at Ali, people hated him. They say he was a big mouth who ran his mouth too much but he proved himself many times and that’s that thing I want to do. I want to speak what I say I’m going to do and you watch me work.”
On Anthony Joshua:
“I want him just as bad as everybody else wants him. If it was up to me, we would’ve been fighting two years ago. I’ve been calling this man out. When they hyped him up and said he was this, said he was that. I’m the type of person that I get happy for other people. With me and my happiness and me being successful, that’s all up to me. It ain’t up to nobody else. Així, when I see other people doing great things, when I see good things coming to other people, I get happy for other people. It’s a hard thing for people to get happy for other people because things don’t happen for them but I’m not like that because I know my blessings will sure enough come. All I got to do is keep working.
“I come in peace all of the time but with him, I don’t think Joshua wants to fight me. His promoters don’t want him to fight me. They’re on the goal of trying to build this resume, saying they want to be the first billionaires, stuff like that. But doing that, the plans all end with me. All roads lead to me. I’m not going nowhere, no time soon. They know black don’t crack. Així, I’m going to be around for a long time. I ain’t the best heavyweight in the division. I’m the best heavyweight on this earth. I’m just waiting on the opportunity to prove it.”
Prediction on Joshua-Parker:
“I’ve always said ‘later rounds’. I see that fight going later rounds if Joseph Parker is smart in what he does. He has nice movement and is able to execute on all of the opportunities that he sees with Joshua. Because Joshua can’t move his head. He’s a muscle, body-building type of guy. You’ve seen my dance? [chuckles] Amb això, if he’s able to calculate what he needs to do in the ring – because the ring has a lot of secrets – if he’s able to do things he needs to do, I see late rounds. Però, like I said before, I think they’re going to have to knock Joshua out because they’re not going to give it to him.”
Prediction for Març 3:
“People ask me the round and I always see threes. This year is a magical year. It’s the year of the 33. Així, I see threes everywhere. I see three rounds or less, maybe shorter than that. It all depends on how I feel when I see him.”

Here is what Charlo and his trainer Ronnie Shields had to say Dijous from Charlo Boxing and Fitness Club in Houston:
Charlo JERMALL
“It’s going to be a tough fight against Hugo Centeno Jr. If he can stand up to my power, we’re going to fight and it’ll be a brutal war. If he can’t, I’ll take him out in the first round.
“We can’t let Houston down now. My brother and I have made it this far. We can’t stop now. It’s my turn to put on a spectacular performance on March 3. I’m trying to one-up my brother’s previous performance each time I step in there.
“My goal is to show everybody that I’m the best middleweight in the world. I’m going to keep fighting everyone they put in front of me. I’m going to knock them out one-by-one until Canelo or Golovkin have to face me.
“I’ve had the chance to work on some improvements to my game since my last fight. I think having even more patience in the ring is going to help step my game up even higher. I want to be a champion at middleweight more than I did at 154-pounds.
“Hugo Centeno Jr. is another fighter who is in my way. I know he’ll come in prepared, but I’m confident I’m going to walk out of there with the victory.
“This is going to be a big year for me and my brother. We’re going to keep showing everyone why we’re so feared.”
Ronnie Shields, Entrenador de Charlo
“Jermall looks great in training camp and we expect him to be at his best come Març 3. He’s motivated to put on a good show and prove to everyone he’s a force in this division.
“Hugo Centeno is a quality fighter. He’s well-trained and has length, so Jermall knows he has to be prepared. Centeno isn’t going to let him win, Jermall is going to have to go in and impose his will on the man.
“I believe Jermall has the talent and determination to beat any of the top middleweights out there. We’re going to keep working every day so that when the time comes for one of those fights with a Golovkin or Canelo, he’ll be prepared to take advantage of the opportunity.”

“Estem molt contents de portar el campió mundial de pes pesat, Deontay Wilder, de nou a Brooklyn per la seva setena defensa del títol i la tercera aparició en Barclays Center, la casa de BROOKLYN BOXA ™,” va dir Lou DiBella, El president de DiBella Entertainment. “Aquesta lluita està succeint perquè Deontay volia silenciar els seus crítics a l'assumir el repte més gran disponible. Deontay has an axe to grind with Ortiz and will swing it on March 3. Ex 154-lb. campió Jermall Charlo ja és un gran jugador al pes mitjà i planeja demostrar que és portada al seu poder amb ell plantant cara a un dels millors prospectes de la divisió, Hugo Centeno Jr., qui ve d'una gran victòria per nocaut en la seva última baralla.”
“Deontay Wilder i Luis Ortiz és una de les millors baralles que es poden fer a la divisió de pes pesat i la seva’ ho són tots sobre els pesos pesats – el poder enfront del poder,” va dir Tom Brown, President de Promocions TGB. “Tothom estima els vuitens de final i això és el més salvatge i Ortiz s'especialitzen en. En l'esdeveniment co-principal, Jermall Charlo es busquen i destrueixen estrictament al ring. Aquest esperit ferotge ho va fer en una força 154 i ha portat amb ell a les 160 files lliura. Sègol és un competidor resistent i que no fa marxa enrere a ningú. Això fa d'això una no pot faltar lluita pels fanàtics de la boxa.”
pesos pesats cert en tots els sentits de la paraula, el 6-peus juliol, 228-lliura Wilder i la 6-peus-4, 240-Ortiz té lliura 62 victòries per nocaut combinats.
El jugador de 32 anys d'edat, Wilder (39-0, 38 KOs), l'únic campió mundial de pes pesat nord-americà, és un artista del nocaut amb el poder per posar fi a qualsevol baralla de manera espectacular. El seu únic partit com a professional que va anar a la distància va ser la baralla en la qual va guanyar el seu títol mundial amb un 12 assalts per decisió unànime dominant sobre Bermane Stiverne al gener. 17, 2015 -l'aniversari del llegendari campió de pes pesat Muhammad Ali. El campió de Tuscaloosa, Alabama va afegir Stiverne a la seva llista de víctimes de final en la seva última baralla amb una primera ronda de la destrucció devastadora en la seva revenja al Barclays Center a Novembre. 4.
Wilder se suposava inicialment per lluitar contra aquesta nit Ortiz, però Ortiz va ser tret del partit després que va donar positiu per una substància prohibida. Ortiz es va aclarir més tard després que el CMB va determinar que no havia pogut fer una llista de medicaments que estava prenent en el seu paperassa pre-prova, que va desencadenar la prova positiva. Ell es va avaluar una multa i se li permet reprendre el combat.
Wilder, una medalla de bronze per al U.S. equip olímpic de boxa en el 2008 Jocs de Pequín, ha defensat amb èxit el títol sis vegades. Aquesta serà la seva tercera defensa del títol a Barclays Center. En la seva primera defensa al Barclays Center, Wilder va anotar un nocaut en el novè assalt memorable sobre Artur Szpilka enrere en Gen. 2016.
“Estic amb ganes de tornar a Barclays Center per defensar el meu títol per setena vegada,” Wilder va dir. “Luis Ortiz és un dels tipus més durs de tot i se suposa que ha de ser l'home del sac en la divisió de pes. Però mai he tingut por de l'home del sac i he noquejat a tots els rivals que m'he enfrontat. El meu pla és mantenir aquesta ratxa. Tothom de peu en el meu camí de convertir-se en el campió indiscutible de pes pesat ha de baixar. És el torn de Luis Ortiz.”
Els 38 anys d'edat, Ortiz (28-0, 24 KOs), of Camaguey, Cuba a través de Miami, Fla., farà el seu debut a Barclays Center quan coneix Wilder per a la seva primera oportunitat pel títol. L'esquerrà de contundent es va convertir en professional fa set anys després de desertar de Cuba i des de llavors ha deixat de pujar en l'escala de pes pesat. Es va consolidar la seva posició en la divisió amb victòries sobre contendents veterans Bryant Jennings, Tony Thompson i Malik Scott i és el n. 1-ranked contender by the WBC. En la seva baralla més recent, Ortiz va anotar un devastador nocaut en el segon assalt de Daniel Martz a Miami, Florida el Desembre. 15.
Si guanya Ortiz, es convertirà en el primer boxejador nascut cubà a guanyar un campionat mundial de pes pesat.
“Aquest és realment el millor en comparació amb el millor pel que fa a la divisió de pes, i tothom sap que la boxa sap que,” Ortiz ha dit. “Hi ha hagut massa parlar ja. És hora de lluitar. Tot el que demano ara és que el guanyador d'aquesta baralla rep el respecte de l'altre home, per part del públic, a partir dels mitjans de comunicació i els aficionats que es mereixen com el millor pes pesat en els EUA”
Charlo (26-0, 20 KOs) va guanyar el seu títol súper welter amb un nocaut dominant de Cornelius Bundrage a 2015 i, finalment assolit la distinció de la celebració d'un títol mundial en la mateixa categoria de pes (154 lliura) com el seu germà bessó després Jermell va guanyar un títol en 2016. Després de defensar amb èxit el seu títol de les 154 lliures en tres ocasions, Charlo de Richmond, Texas, va decidir traslladar-se fins 160 lliures per guanyar un altre títol en una categoria de pes diferent. En el seu debut a 160 lliures de 27 anys d'edat, es va anotar una victòria per TKO sobre Jorge Sebastià Heiland a Barclays Center el Juliol 29.
“M'agrada molt lluitar a Brooklyn i en el Barclays Center,” Said Charlo. “Els aficionats a Brooklyn sempre em mostren molt d'amor. Des de la darrera baralla que he tingut l'oportunitat de treballar en la meva paciència i treballar en millores al meu joc. Tinc la mateixa sensació que tenia abans que jo vaig guanyar el meu primer títol mundial. Vull ser un campió en 160 més del que vaig fer la primera vegada en 154. Més que res Només vull tornar a entrar en l'anell. Sègol és un lluitador dur. Estarà una prova difícil per a algú que no està en el meu nivell. No estic prenent res lluny d'ell. Però ell és només un altre lluitador que està en el meu camí. No em sento com si tingués res a demostrar a ningú més en aquesta lluita. Sóc tot per demostrar coses a mi mateix ara. En la divisió de les 160 lliures que està escoltant el meu nom cada vegada més. És més del que va fer quan era a 154 lliures.”
Els 26 anys d'edat, Sègol (26-1, 14 KOs) va cridar l'atenció de tot el món quan es va anotar un impressionant knockout de Immanuwel Aleem en la seva última baralla el Agost. 25. Això va ser suficient per a trampolí Centeno en el títol de pes mitjà de contenció. Centeno de Oxnard, Califòrnia es va recuperar amb èxit d'una derrota per TKO difícil d'Maiej Sulecki de juny 18, 2016 amb una victòria sobre Ronald Muntanyes abans del seu partit contra Aleem.
“Estic emocionat per l'oportunitat,” Said Centeno. “Crec que la meva última baralla va tenir molt a veure amb això / Em va ajudar a posar-me en aquesta posició. Charlo és un gran lluitador amb molt talent. Sento que tenim alçades similars. Serà una baralla interessant. Crec que vindrà baix a qui és el lluitador més intel·ligent aquella nit i que té més en el tanc cap al final. Es tracta d'un canvi de vida, carrera que canvia la baralla per a mi que podria portar a coses més grans i millors. Vaig a anar a guanyar.”
