With exceptional power and sublime technical skills, Ortiz (32-2, 27 Нокаута) has been a fixture atop heavyweight rankings for years, with his only defeats coming in memorable contests against former longtime heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder. Born in Camaguey, Cuba and trained by longtime coach Herman Caicedo in Miami, Ortiz won three bouts between Wilder contests, defeating Travis Kauffman, Christian Hammer and Razvan Cojanu. Prior to that run, Ortiz picked up victories over the likes of Bryant Jennings, Tony Thompson and Malik Scott to build up his heavyweight resume. Съвсем наскоро, Ortiz blasted out Alexander Flores in the first round of their November 2020 край.

“I can’t wait to give my fans in South Florida a great show on New Year’s Day and earn another shot at the heavyweight title,” Саид Ортис. “Charles Martin is a good fighter, but he’s standing in my way. The only thing on my mind is getting in the ring and making a big statement in this fight to show again why I’m feared by the heavyweight division.”

The 35-year-old Martin (28-2-1, 25 Нокаута) стана шампион в тежка категория през януари 2016 когато той спечели с технически нокаут срещу после непобеден Вячеслав Glazkov. След като загуби титлата си на Антъни Джошуа, Martin has won five of his last six fights, с всичките си победи идва отвътре разстоянието. Първоначално от St. Louis, сега живее в Лас Вегас и в момента тренират в Южна Калифорния с Мани Роблес, Мартин успя да се върне от тесен поражение решение за Адам Kownacki в 2018 to earn three-straight victories, including most recently knocking out Gerald Washington in February 2020.

“Nobody wants to fight me and nobody wants to fight Ortiz, so we’ll fight each other,” каза Мартин. “I’m going to show the world on January 1 why I deserve a title shot. I’ve paid my dues and I want my belt back. Beating Ortiz is going to get me one step closer to that goal. In order to become two-time heavyweight champion, I have to get past Ortiz first, so that’s exactly what I’m going to do.”

An amateur standout from his native Cuba, Санчес (19-0, 13 Нокаута) now trains in San Diego with top trainer Eddy Reynoso. The 29-year-old has stayed busy on his rise up the heavyweight rankings, scoring three victories in 2020 as he earned a unanimous decision over Joey Dawejko and stopped Brian Howard and Julian Fernandez. Sanchez most recently scored a career-best win in October, dropping previously unbeaten Efe Ajagba on his way to a unanimous decision victory.

“I’m happy to be back so soon after beating Agjaba, but the work is only beginning,” Саид Sanchez. “There’s much more to be done. I believe I will be the first heavyweight champion in Cuban history. Negron is a strong, dangerous opponent. I’ll have to be my best, but I’m confident that I will come out victorious. I believe in my team, and my team believes in me. We’ll start the New Year off getting to 20-0, remain busy and make a strong case for a world title by year’s end.”

The 2008 Puerto Rican Olympian Negron (25-3, 20 Нокаута) rides a five-fight winning streak into January 1, including four wins by stoppage. The 34-year-old bounced back from defeats to Dominic Breazeale and Brian Howard to put together his win streak, which includes a March 2020 knockout over previously unbeaten Robert Alfonso. Negron has fought professionally since 2009 and now lives in Miami where he trains alongside Luis Ortiz.

“This is a great opportunity for me to get a win over a strong up-and-coming fighter and show everyone what I’m capable of,” said Negron. “I’m training hard and I’ve had great sparring in order to be ready for anything that Sanchez is going to bring. My experience and preparation are going to be the difference. I’m extremely motivated to give the fans a great fight and put myself in position to get a world title opportunity.”

Born in South Carolina and now fighting out of Los Angeles, Rice (14-6-1, 10 Нокаута) will look to repeat a career-best performance in the rematch against Coffie, after he stopped the previously unbeaten fighter in the fifth-round in July. Rice won six of seven fights from 2018 през 2019 before a pair of losses in 2020 against then unbeatens Efe Ajagba and Demsey McKean. In a pro career that dates back to 2014, the blemishes on Rice’s records have all come against previously unbeaten fighters.

“In my last fight against Coffie, I went in there to prove myself and do what I had been training to do,” said Rice. “It was sink or swim, and I came out on top. Now I have to go out there on January 1 and show that it wasn’t a fluke. This is a great stage for me to display my talents and prove that I’m capable of big things. I’m looking to give the fans a great performance and I know that Coffie is doing the same. Don’t miss this fight.”

Coffie (12-1, 9 Нокаута) hopes to bounce back from his first career defeat after dropping the first matchup against Rice in July. A Marine Corps veteran who picked up boxing after returning from overseas, Coffie quickly impressed in amateur tournaments enough to earn sparring assignments with Deontay Wilder and Adam Kownacki. He was born in the Bronx, but now trains in Orlando, Florida and broke through in 2020 with three dominating stoppage victories, including knockouts over previously unbeaten opponents Darmani Rock and Luis Pena.

“I want to get it back and make it an actual fight this time against Jonny Rice,” said Coffie. "Последния път, I was in a position where I faced some adversity, and I had to make a decision to go through with the fight. I know that I can fight through adversity, and on January 1, I will be ready for whatever way the fight goes. На January 1, there will be a fight.”

Вашингтон (20-4-1, 13 Нокаута) е двуметров и шест в тежката категория, който е бивш колежа по футбол забележителни в Университета на Южна Калифорния и северноамерикански. Navy ветеран. Роден в Сан Хосе, Калифорния, Washington most recently lost a contest against former heavyweight champion Charles Martin in February 2020. Prior to that fight, Washington had delivered a knockout of veteran contender Robert Helenius in July 2019. Вашингтон е загуба в първия си 19 pro fights before dropping his world title challenge to Deontay Wilder in February 2017.

“I’m looking forward to stepping back in the ring on January 1,” каза, че Вашингтон. “I’m ready to go to work and get myself back in position for some big time fights. Моят опит ще бъде разликата в тази борба. It’s going to be a great night of heavyweight action!”

A 2016 Olympian for Turkey, Demirezen (14-1, 11 Нокаута) has fought out of Hamburg, Germany in the professional ranks since turning pro in late 2016. The 31-year-old won his first 11 про битки, including a second round stoppage of Rad Rashid to capture a European heavyweight title in 2018. Demirezen made his only other U.S. започне през 2019, when he became the first person to go the distance against Efe Ajagba, losing by decision. Since that defeat, Demirezen has scored three-straight victories, most recently stopping Nikola Milacic in March.

“I learned a lot from my loss to Ajagba and I’m looking forward to getting another chance to box in the U.S.,” said Demirezen. “I’m still angry about the Ajagba fight, because I know that I could have won. I want to show now that I belong on this stage. I’m proud to be in this position to show what I can do and I’m going to make the most of the opportunity.”

The 29-year-old Faust (8-0, 6 Нокаута) turned pro in February 2020 after an extensive amateur career fighting out of his native Svitlovodsk, Украйна. Faust knocked out his first four opponents, before winning dominant six and eight round decisions. After a first round knockout over previously unbeaten Jacek Piatek in May, Faust made his U.S. debut in October, dropping Mike Marshall twice on his way to a third-round TKO victory.

“I’m really excited to be back fighting in the U.S. again on January 1,” said Faust. “I’ve been welcomed warmly and fighting stateside already feels like my living room. I love the atmosphere. This is a great chance to show myself on this pay-per-view show against a very high-quality opponent. I won’t disappoint fans when I step into the ring.”

Kiladze (27-5-1, 19 Нокаута) returned to the win column in September, with a knockout victory over Mathew McKinney. Since he began fighting stateside full time in 2017, Kiladze’s losses have come against top heavyweights Adam Kownacki, Майкъл Хънтър, Efe Ajagba and Joe Joyce, who sported a combined 45-1 record heading into their matchups against Kiladze. Originally from Georgia and now fighting out of Los Angeles, Kiladze owns a 2019 draw against then unbeaten Robert Alfonso and won six straight fights between 2014 и 2018.

“I’ll be ready on fight night and I’ll be focused,” said Kiladze. “I’m grateful for the opportunity and training hard to put on a good performance and leave the ring with a victory.”

TOP LIGHT HEAVYWEIGHT MENG FANLONG NOW A FREE AGENT

Септември 26, 2020 FNU47 Оставете коментар

SEPTEMBER 22nd, 2020 NEW YORK CITY – Former Olympian and #1 ranked IBF light heavyweight contender Meng Fanlong (16-0, 10 Нокаута) is now a promotional free agent after reaching a separation agreement with Roc Nation.

“I’m very happy to be a free agent," said Meng. “I have the best team around me, my advisors Terry and Tommy Lane, my trainer Shaun George, my attorney Scott Shaffer and my Chinese representative Kurt Li. They are building a solid plan for my career and I am really looking forward to the future. I am still the mandatory challenger in the IBF. Нека си го кача на!"

Миналото лято, Meng earned the IBF’s #1 ranking with a 2019 victory over then-undefeated Adam Deines. Като резултат, Meng was set to fight unified champion Artur Beterbiev on March 28th, 2020, but the coronavirus pandemic KO’d the bout. In late 2018, Meng traveled to Monte Carlo and stopped British contender Frank Buglioni in five rounds, sending Buglioni into retirement. His most recent fight was a second-round stoppage of Gilberto Rubio that was not televised anywhere.

Despite his undefeated record and stellar amateur background highlighted by representing his native China at the 2012 олимпийски игри, Meng remains relatively unknown in the United States. His current team intends for that to change soon.

“We can’t wait for people to see him fight;" said Meng’s advisor, Tommy Lane. “He is one of the best fighters in boxing today and is yet to fight on a major platform, and that’s a shame. We hope to change that very soon. We are currently feilding different opportunities for Fanlong.”

КЛАРЕСА ШИЙЛДС СЕ ЗАВРЪЩА В SHOWTIME® ДА СЕ СТРЕМА ДА СТАНЕ ПЪРВАТА БЕЗОПАСНА СВЕТОВНА ШАМПИОНКА В ДВЕ ДИВИЗИИ В ЕРАТА НА ЧЕТИРИ КОЛАНА

Шийлдс ще се изправи срещу шампионката на IBF в супер полусредна категория Мари-Ив Дикер с всичките четири основни пояса на линия в 154-паундов обединителен двубой

ПОКАЗВАНЕ НА БОКС: СПЕЦИАЛНО ИЗДАНИЕ събота, Май 9 При 9 p.m. И / 6 p.m. PT

NEW YORK - Март 11, 2020 – Непобедената световна шампионка в три дивизии Клареса Шийлдс ще се опита да стане първата боксьорка в ерата с четири колана, която ще стане безспорен световен шампион в две тегловни категории, когато се изправи срещу непобедената шампионка на IBF в супер полусредна категория Мари-Ив Дикер в обединение от 154 паунда двубой в събота, Май 9, живеят на SHOWTIME(9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT) от Центъра за събития на федералния кредитен съюз на Дорт в родния град на Шийлдс Флинт, мен.

Победителят в SHOWTIME BOXING: Основното събитие на SPECIAL EDITION ще се разнесе с титлите на Шийлдс на WBC и WBO, IBF коланът на Dicaire, и WBA (Супер) корона. Това е първият път в своята 99-годишна история, в която WBA присъжда колан за супер шампион на боксьорка.

Билетите за събитието Salita Promotions започват от $35 и може да бъде закупен на Ticketmaster.com и в касата на центъра за събития на федералния кредитен съюз на Дорт.

„Нямам търпение да вляза в историята отново на 9 май“, каза Шийлдс. „Да се бия във Флинт пред всички мои фенове беше моя мечта, откакто станах професионалист. Да имам възможността да направя история, като се боря за безспорната титла във втора категория е нещо, с което много се гордея. Борбата срещу непобедената шампионка на IBF от 154 паунда Мари-Ив Дикер продължава стремежа ми да се бия с най-добрите в женския бокс. И като заглавие отново на SHOWTIME ще продължа целта ми да издигна женския бокс до нови висоти. Ще дам на феновете на Flint и битките по целия свят нощ, която да запомнят през май 9!"

„Много съм развълнуван за тази възможност и за мен е чест да се изправя срещу съперник като Клареса Шийлдс,“, каза Дикер. „Благодарен съм на моя промоутър Ивон Мишел и на всички, които участват в това да стане възможно. За мен, това е сбъдната мечта. Ще бъда подготвен възможно най-добре и съм готов да оставя всичко на ринга, за да спечеля битката!"

В ерата на четирите колана, само седем бойци са безспорни в една дивизия, включително щитове, Кейти Тейлър, Сесилия Braekhus, Бърнард Хопкинс, Джърмейн Тейлър, Terence Crawford, и Александър Усик.

На January 10 в Atlantic City, Ню Джърси, Шийлдс влезе в историята, като спечели световното първенство на WBC и WBO до 154 паунда с доминиращо единодушно решение над Ивана Хабазин. Шийлдс стана най-бързият боец в историята, мъж или жена, да спечели световни титли в три различни тегловни категории, надминавайки рекордите на Василий Ломаченко и Косей Танака, които и двамата постигнаха подвига в 12 битки.

24-годишният Шийлдс (10-0, 2 Нокаута) надви Хабазин от звънеца на откриването, използвайки силен удар и постоянна диета от удари в тялото, които оставиха хърватия предимно в отбранителен режим през 10-рундовата битка. В шестия кръг, поредица от удари по тялото принудиха Хабазин да коленичи в първия нокдаун в кариерата си.

„SHOWTIME има дълга история на представяне на най-доброто в женските бойни спортове, дали беше с Джина Карано, Крис Сайборг и Ронда Раузи в ММА, или Лайла Али и Кристи Мартин в бокса,- каза Гордън Хол, Изпълнителен продуцент на SHOWTIME BOXING: СПЕЦИАЛНО ИЗДАНИЕ. „От скоро, показахме Клареса Шийлдс, Кристина Хамър, Шампионката в лека категория Кейти Тейлър и шампионката в седем дивизии Аманда Серано. Шийлдс срещу. Dicaire ще бъде нашето 12-то състезание по бокс за жени оттогава 2017. Двубоят на Клареса с Dicaire представлява поредната историческа битка на непобедени и опит за още едно „първо“ в SHOWTIME, тъй като Клареса изглежда да стане безспорна в две тегловни класове.

„Вълнувам се да представя историческа нощ на бокса на феновете във Флинт в Центъра за събития на федералния кредитен съюз на Дорт и на тези, които гледат по SHOWTIME,“, каза Дмитрий Салита, Президент на Salita Promotions. „В Клареса Шийлдс и Мари-Ив Дикер, имаме двамата най-добри юноши средна категория в света и двама непобедени шампиони, които се борят за безспорното световно първенство. В допълнение към нейния вече исторически списък с първите, ако победи, Клареса ще стане първата безспорна шампионка в две дивизии в ерата с четири пояса. Това ще бъде триумфална нощ във Флинт на 9 май.

След като стана първият американски боксьор в историята – мъж или жена – спечелил два поредни олимпийски златни медала, Шийлдс се превърна в професионалист след 2016 Олимпийските игри и оглави първото основно събитие по бокс за жени в историята на първокласната кабелна телевизия само във втората си професионална битка през 2017 г. Шийлдс, който ще бъде хедлайнер за седми път в SHOWTIME, сега има намерение да създаде още повече история.

„Клареса Шийлдс продължава да бъде фар на светлината и пионер в женския бокс, женски спортове, и бокса като цяло,- каза Марк Тафет, Мениджър на Шийлдс. „Да съм единственият американец, който печели последователно олимпийско злато в бокса, спечелил световни титли в три тегловни категории по-бързо от всеки мъж или жена в историята на бокса, и сега има шанса да бъде първият човек – мъж или жена – безспорен шампион в две тегловни категории в ерата с четири колана, Клареса ще продължи да добавя към своя списък с легендарни, Безпрецедентните и исторически постижения идват на 9 май. Гордея се, че съм част от нейното пътуване.”

33-годишният Dicaire (17-0) е от Saint-Eustache, Quebec, Канада, и започва карате на шестгодишна възраст. Тя си проправи път нагоре в ранговете, докато не получи черния си колан. След като спечели пет световни шампионски титли, Dicaire насочи вниманието си към бокса и спечели пояса на IBF от Световното първенство в полусредна категория през декември 2018 детронира с решение уругваеца Крис Намус във видеотронния център в Квебек Сити. В последния си двубой през ноември м.г 2019, Dicaire защити титлата си за трети път, надвивайки опитния венецуелец Оглеидис Суарес с единодушно съдийско решение. Dicaire ще се бие извън провинция Квебек за първи път през май 9 и ще се стреми да отбележи разстроената победа пред феновете на родния град на Шийлдс.

„Мари-Ив Дикер срещу Клареса Шийлдс, битка на двама непобедени шампиони за всички титли – не можете да получите по-добър мач в бокса,“, каза Ивон Мишел, Промоутърът на Dicaire, Президентът на GYM. „Имаме голямо уважение и възхищение за всички постижения на Shields, но няма съмнение, че Мари-Ив е най-квалифицираната, силен и всеотдаен противник Клареса се изправи. Много сме уверени, че всички колани ще се върнат в Канада с нас. Благодарим на Salita Promotions и SHOWTIME за възможността. Marie-Eve Dicaire ще осигури страхотна битка за феновете и зрителите.”

Бари Томпкинс ще се обади на SHOWTIME BOXING: СПЕЦИАЛНО ИЗДАНИЕ Екшън от ринга с боксовия историк Стив Фархуд и бившия световен шампион Раул Маркес, работещи като експертни анализатори. Изпълнителният продуцент е Gordon Hall с Ричард Gaughan производство и Rick Phillips режисура.

**BROOKLYN** (Декември 8, 2019) – Undefeated WBC Middleweight World ChampionJermall Charlo (30-0, 22 Нокаута) successfully defended his title for the second time, stopping highly-ranked Irish contender **Dennis Hogan** (28-3-1, 7 Нокаута) with a showstopping one-punch knockout in the seventh round Saturday night live on SHOWTIME from Barclays Center, в дома на Бруклин Бокс ™, в събитие, представен от Premier боксови шампиони.

WATCH CHARLO’S FINISH

Houston’s Charlo, one of the most exciting young champions in the sport, delivered on his promise that he would close the show in spectacular fashion after going the distance in his previous two bouts. При :28 of round number seven, Charlo set Hogan up by feinting on the jab before connecting on a ferocious left hook to Hogan’s nose that sent him falling against the ropes. The 34-year-old Hogan, who was moving up after most recently challenging for the title at 154 паунда, rose to his feet before the ten count, but referee Charlie Fitch waived off the bout.

When Hogan was dropped in the seventh round, it was the third time in his career that he had been down and the second time during the fight. В третия кръг, a vicious left uppercut from Charlo just 12 seconds into the frame sent Hogan rolling backwards onto the canvas, but the Irishman rose quickly and acrobatically to his feet.

Despite throwing far fewer punches, Charlo had the more effective and efficient attack. Charlo landed 86 на 266 punches he threw (32%) while Hogan landed just 71 на 418 punches he threw (17%). Despite Hogan landing on 61 електрически удари в сравнение с 57 for Charlo, Hogan was unable to hurt Charlo, while Charlo’s trademark power resulted in another highlight reel stoppage.

“I made it through 2019 and we’re going to 2020 с 20/20 vision,” said Charlo in the ring following the fight. “Shout out to Dennis Hogan for giving me real competition and for coming up to fight me.Of course my power prevailed tonight.

“We’ve been working on that (the uppercut). I try to take him out with every punch and we work hard for it. He got up and he fought like a champion. Ronnie (Шийлдс) told me to cut him off. I just threw the shot and I made sure I threw it right on the money.

“The middleweight division is wide open. I’m the WBC Champion. I’m going to enjoy this and spend time with my team. I’m here to fight whoever. You have to make the right decisions and do it at the right time. That’s what it’s all about.”

“I wanted to keep going but the decision was fair enough by the referee,” said Hogan. “I didn’t see the punch coming on the second knockdown. I was trying to keep boxing him but then all of a sudden I was on the ground and the fight was over.

“I’m looking forward to spending the Christmas holiday with my family, taking a month off, and then we’ll work on what’s next for me.”

В съвместно черта схватката, **Chris Eubank Jr.**'с (29-2, 22 Нокаута) long-awaited United States debut ended in frustrating fashion as his opponent, **Мат Коробов** (28-3-1, 14 Нокаута), suffered a bout-ending injury at just :34 на втория кръг. Because it was ruled a self-inflicted injury, the result was officially declared a TKO victory for Eubank, who picked up the Interim WBA Middleweight Title.

Korobov, a top contender in the middleweight division, injured his left shoulder after throwing a punch that failed to land. After consulting with the ringside doctor, it was deemed that he would be unable to continue.

“I felt like I was about to get my swagger on,” Eubank told SHOWTIME reporter Jim Gray following the stoppage. “He just turned around and stopped. I was going to go jump on him. I guess something happened with his shoulder. There’s nothing to take from the fight. I threw like three or four punches. I was just warming up.”

In the buildup to the fight, Eubank, the son of British boxing legend and former two-division world champion Chris Eubank Sr., repeatedly said that there would be a new contender in the stacked middleweight division. Despite not getting a chance to introduce himself to the American audience in the way he envisioned, Eubank is looking ahead to a busy 2020.

“I’m the winner, I’m going to move forward and challenger for these belts,” said Eubank. “This wasn’t my dream. My dream was to come here to America and make a statement. Now that I’ve landed and I settled with the new promotional team, I feel I can get the ball rolling for an active 2020. It’s a shame it had to start like this, but it is what it is.”

“I was trying to throw the left hand straight, and I just felt the muscle immediately, like I pulled it,” каза Коробов. “It was a lot of pain right away. I couldn’t fight with just one arm, especially being a southpaw.”

In a battle of former world champions to open the telecast, Japan’s **Ryosuke Iwasa** (27-3, 17 Нокаута) knocked out the Philippines’ **Марлон Тапалес** (33-3, 16 Нокаута) with a devastating straight left-hand at 1:09 на 11^тата кръг. С тази победа, Iwasa earned the vacant Interim IBF World Junior Featherweight Title.

Аз бях, who held a six-and-a-half-inch reach advantage, was more consistent throughout the entirety of the bout, stringing together multi-punch combinations. The decisive moment of the 12-round fight came in the penultimate round, when Tapales was caught with a counter left-hand that connected flush on his chin and put him sprawled on the canvas. Tapales beat the count, rising after eight seconds, but referee Shada Murdaugh waved the fight off.

По време на спирането, Iwasa led on all three scorecards (97-92, 95-94, 97-92). While Tapales was more accurate throughout the night, Iwasa was busier and landed 163 общи удари в сравнение с 148 for Tapales and held a 125-99 advantage in power punches landed. В третия кръг, Tapales was dropped to a knee after an accidental clash of heads. The clash, which was incorrectly ruled a knockdown, caused severe swelling under Tapales’ right eye and swung a would-be 10-9 round in his favor to a 10-8 round in Iwasa’s favor.

“I knew that I had him hurt in the 11^тата round and I was ready for the finish if the referee had let him keep fighting,” said the 29-year-old Iwasa. “It was a tough fight but I trained really hard for this performance. My height and reach was definitely an advantage. I was able to put my punches together well. He never hurt me but he was still difficult and I had to focus to figure him out.

“We’re ready for anyone next. I’m going to keep working hard to become a world champion again next year.”

On Saturday’s telecast it was announced that former two-division world champion Danny Garcia would return to the ring on Saturday, Януари 25 живеят на SHOWTIME от Barclays Center. During an interview with SHOWTIME Sports host Brian Custer, Garcia discussed his anticipated return to the ring.

“Януари 25, I’m back at Barclays Center, my home away from home,” Garcia said. “It’s a great atmosphere. Every time I’m here, I get the jitters, so I just can’t wait to be back. I’ve been in the gym for a month. I’m already ready. I don’t know who my opponent is, but whoever they put in front of me, Готов съм да го кача.

“Най-напред, Благодаря на Бога, (Ерол) Spence is doing good. I hear that he’s recovering well. I was really looking forward to fighting him but maybe he could be next after January 25. Pac-Man (Мани Пакиао) or Spence, that’s who we want. 2020 is going to be a big year for me.”

Prior to the telecast on SHOWTIME, SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING COUNTDOWN streamed live on the канал SHOWTIME Спорт YouTube и SHOWTIME Boxing Facebook страница and saw **Роналд Елис** (17-1-2, 11 Нокаута) win a majority decision over **Имануел Aleem** (18-2-2, 11 Нокаута) in their 10-round super middleweight fight.

The back and forth affair saw both men grab the momentum of the fight at different points, but it was Ellis’ activity and ability to box effectively from the outside that gave him the edge. While one judge had the fight 95-95, he was overruled by two scores of 98-92 и 97-93 for Ellis.

The opening streaming bout saw Louisa Hawton (10-2, 5 Нокаута) retain her Interim WBC Atomweight Championship by unanimous decision in an all-action rematch againstLorraine Villalobos (4-3, 2 Нокаута).

Hawton came back after being dropped by a powerful left hook from Villalobos in the sixth round. Hawton was saved by the bell in the round and finished the fight strong, punctuating the action getting the best of several exchanges in the late rounds to win by the score of 95-94 и на трите карти.

Eubank will make his U.S. pro debut on December 7, after establishing himself as a contender at 160 и 168 pounds while fighting in his native United Kingdom. He most recently registered a career-best win over former champion James DeGale in February on SHOWTIME in London but will now move back down to 160 pounds to seek a title at middleweight beginning with the fight against Korobov.

Korobov will return to fight at Barclays Center for the second time nearly one year after losing a close decision to Charlo as a late replacement opponent last December in Brooklyn. After fighting to a controversial draw against Immanuwel Aleem in May, Korobov will look to make a statement against Eubank to earn another shot at a world title.

Here is what Eubank and Korobov had to say about their matchup, a future fight with Jermall Charlo and more:

**CHRIS EUBANK JR.**

***How does it feel to be making your U.S. pro debut on December 7? What are you looking to show the U.S. fans in this fight?***

“It’s always been a dream of mine to fight in the U.S. Even with everything I’ve done in the sport over in the U.K, I’ve always felt there was something missing and I believe it was the urge to introduce myself and my fight style to the American audience of fight fans. Now I have my opportunity.”

***Why did you make the decision to move down to middleweight for this fight? In what ways are you stronger at 160-pounds?***

“I’ve never been a real super middleweight. I walk around at 170 pounds out of competition and have to eat breakfast the day of my weigh-ins to make 168. I believe at 160 I am going to be a beast now that I have become accustomed to fighting much bigger fighters over the last three years.”

***What do you know about Korobov as a fighter and how do you see this fight going stylistically?***

“I think Korobov will be awkward until I pin him down and when I do, I will show the audience why I am a fan friendly fighter.”

***If you’re able to get past Korobov, what would you think of a fight against Jermall Charlo? What advantages do you think you have in that fight?***

“When I dispatch of Korobov, Charlo is definitely the name that’s on my radar. He is seen as one of the elite fighters in the middleweight division and I intend to prove that he is not on my level. It will be satisfying stamping my mark on the division against Charlo after I beat Korobov. I think it will be a great fight for the fans as together our styles would make for a very exciting bout.”

**MATT KOROBOV**

***Is it exciting to be back at Barclays Center as the co-main event to Charlo, because with a win, you have an opportunity to show him why you deserve the rematch?***

"Да, it is very exciting to be back at Barclays Center, only this time I will leave with the belt. I thought I deserved an immediate rematch against Charlo because many people believed I won. I think when I defeat Eubank Jr. and win this belt, it will force Charlo to give me a rematch. We shall see. I only focus on one fight at a time and right now I am only focused on Chris Eubank Jr.”

***How do you stay mentally focused on the next fight when you believe you had two bad scorecards go against you?***

“I do not focus on the past. I focus on the future because I can only control the future. I will be my best and my best will be good enough against Chris Eubank Jr. We’re doing everything possible in camp to make sure I’m ready.”

***What do you make of Eubank as a fighter? How do you expect the fight to look stylistically?***

“Eubank is a very good fighter, one of the best. I believe I am a more disciplined fighter. I think my technique is better, but he does some things very well. Let’s see on December 7. I don’t want to give away the weaknesses I see, but the style difference will make a very entertaining fight for the fans.

***Do you think you have the advantage as far as boxing skills over Eubank? How do you counter his possible size advantage, given that he’s coming down from 168 паунда?***

“I think my skills are better. I do not think weight will be an issue. He is professional and I am professional. Ако нещо, perhaps it is a little more difficult for him to make 160 after years at 168. I will fight anyone between 160 и 168 паунда, so I don’t see any problem with weight for me, perhaps more for him. We will find out December 7.”
