LOS ANGELES (Fevereiro 5, 2019) – WBA pluma campeão Mundial Leo Santa Cruz, one of Los Angelesmost popular boxing stars, hosted a media workout at Fortune Gym in Hollywood Tuesday as he nears his primetime showdown againstRafael Rivera that headlines Premier Boxing Champions on FOX and FOX Deportes Saturday, Fevereiro 16 at Microsoft Theater at L.A. Live in Los Angeles.

Tickets for the show, which is promoted by TGB Promotions and Ringstar Sports, já estão à venda, and can be purchased at AXS.com.

Santa Cruz, who was joined by his father and trainer Jose Santa Cruz, showed off the skills that have made him a can’t-miss attraction. Santa Cruz was originally scheduled to face Miguel Flores, but he was replaced by Rivera after Flores suffered an injury in training.

Here is what the workout participants had to say Tuesday in Hollywood:

LEO SANTA CRUZ

We kept our training camp going despite the change of opponent. We always train the same no matter who the opponent is.

We spar against fighters who have every different kind of style, because the opponent could always bring something new to the ring. My dad tells me to always be prepared for any kind of style. We are ready for whatever the opponent brings into the ring.

I’m always staying in shape whether I’m in the gym training for a fight or not. When they call us and tell us what the fight is, we’re always ready.

I know that Rivera has fought some good opponents like Joseph Diaz and Joet Gonzalez, and he’s gone the distance with them. He’s given them tough battles. He’s shown that he’s a tough fighter who will leave everything in the ring.

This isn’t going to be an easy fight. Rivera is tougher than people have given him credit for in the past. It motivates me to try to be the first to knock him out. If I have the opportunity for it, I’m going for it. Most important though, is to come out of there with the victory.

Sometimes when my dad is having tough days dealing with the cancer, I want to stay at home with him, but he tells me to go to the gym and train hard. So I tell him that we’re going to work hard for him. We both motivate each other.

“(WBC campeão dos penas) Gary Russell Jr.. is the fight that I want. He beat me in the amateurs, but in the pros I get 12 rounds. I think that I can beat him.

JOSE SANTA CRUZ, Leo’s Father & Treinador

We didn’t worry too much about the opponent change. I don’t think it makes too much of a difference. Leo is going to be at his best and ready for whoever steps into that ring.

We didn’t let the change effect our routine. We continued the same preparations as always so Leo is ready to fight. We respect every opponent too much to ever fall behind in conditioning.

I think this is going to be a good fight. Leo is always very competitive and any time he can win a fight he knows it will be big for his career.

Leo is 30-years-old right now and I think that he will be retired by 35. He has a lot left to accomplish in this sport and our team is going to keep pushing him to be the best that he can.

Richard Schaefer, Presidente & CEO da Ringstar Sports

Top to bottom this is just a great card. It’s going to be toe-to-toe action downtown at L.A. Vivo. It’s an affordable ticket at $30, and that gives you the chance to see one of the stars of the sport in a slugfest.

Leo Santa Cruz always brings great action and drama when he enters the ring. You have to be on the edge of your seat during a Leo Santa Cruz fight and I expect nothing less next Saturday night. Rafael Rivera has nothing to lose in this fight, and that is the recipe for a tremendous showdown.

Boxing at Microsoft Theater has caught on. That fight in January between Caleb Plant and Jose Uzcategui had a great atmosphere and it is just a beautiful place to watch the fights. Microsoft Theater is becoming the indoor ‘war groundsof boxing.

TOM BROWN, Presidente da TGB Promoções

Rafael Rivera put up a great fight against Joseph Diaz Jr., and he came back against Joet Gonzalez and lost a split-decision, but he really won that fight. Rivera should only have one loss on his record.

Rivera is going into this fight with the same granite chin that he showed everyone against Diaz. He was prepared and ready when the call came for this fight. He’s a great replacement. Leo better be ready and not take him lightly.

LOS ANGELES (Janeiro 13) – The challenger proved to be the aggressor as Caleb Plant became the IBF Super Middleweight World Champion, defeating Jose Uzcategui in the main event of the first Premier Boxing Champions on FS1 and FOX Deportes event of 2019, which took place at the Microsoft Theater at L.A. Live in Los Angeles. Plant dominated the whole fight as he maintained a fast and aggressive pace from the opening bell.

With scores of 116-110 duas vezes e 115-111 in favor of Plant, the freshly crowned champion, Plant fell to his knees overcome with emotion when he heard “and the new!".

“I’ve worked my whole entire life for this,” said Plant. “I buried my daughter in the process of trying to get this belt. I promised I would bring her this title and that is what I am going to do.”

The super middleweight barnburner started out strong with both combatants throwing exchanges, but Plant did everything in his power to never back down. Uzcategui threw hard right hands to start the second round, but Plant quickly turned the round in his favor as he knocked Uzcategui to the canvas with a flurry of punches, only the third time Uzcategui had been knocked down in his career. A small cut opened under the left eye of Uzcategui to start the third, but he fought through it and fended off Plant’s aggression. One minute into the fourth round, a cut opened up under Plant’s right eye causing blood to stream. That did not stop the Nashville native as threw a hard left hook that once again sent Uzcategui to the canvas.

As the fight progressed, the Venezuelan was unable to utilize his distance, thus allowing Plant to fight on the inside. Despite good exchanges in the seventh and eighth, it became increasingly clear that Uzcategui would need a knockout to hold onto his belt. Uzcategui flipped a switch in the championship rounds and came forward, throwing hard blows to the body and head of Plant. But it was too little too late for Uzcategui as Plant’s ring generalship controlled the pace of the fight, ultimately ending in a unanimous decision.

I knew I caught him clean [when I knocked down Uzcategui], but I knew he wasn’t all the way out so I took my time,” continued Plant. “I stayed relaxed. I stuck to the game plan and got it done just like I said I would.

This is overwhelming. I am a kid who came from nothing. I believed in myself and now I’ve been crowned king. Agora, I am not thinking ahead. I just want to embrace this moment and soak it in.” 

“I did feel that I had the advantage heading into the fight,” said Uzcategui. “I went down because I was off balance, but I wasn’t hurt. He started to get tired around the sixth round, which was the plan. Caleb knew how to clench and hold. He was smart. He knew how to stay away from the punches.

“I expected more movement and more boxing out of him,” continued Uzcategui. “I would love the rematch. I think everyone saw a great fight tonight. I gave him the chance at the title and I would hope he would give me the chance to win it back.”

Unbeaten Brandon Figueroa (18-0, 13 KOs) de Weslaco, Texas faced former world title challenger Moises Flores (25-2, 17 KOs) de Guadalajara, Mex. in a WBA Super Bantamweight title eliminator. Figueroa wasted no time attacking Flores in round one as he came forward and threw several hard lefts followed by a body shot that seemed to surprise Flores. Com 30 segundos para o fim da rodada, Figueroa went for the body and worked Flores on the inside. While Flores seemed to find his footing at the start of round three, Figueroa unleashed a flurry of punches that sent Flores to the canvas once and then a second time that ended the fight at 1:35 da terceira rodada.

“Break him down and finish him,” said Figueroa “This is exactly how I expected it to go. I knew that he wasn’t going to handle those body shots. My message to Daniel Roman is that I am going to go home and prepare.

“I used that body work,” continued Figueroa. “I am really strong. I came in at 110 percent and did my job. Eu poderia ter feito melhor. I am really hard on myself. I know there are things I can continue to work on and will do that as soon as I get home. I am most definitely ready for a title shot.”

Fast-rising undefeated star and PBC Prospect of 2018 Joey Spencer (6-0, 6 KOs) of Linden, Mich., continued his impressive knockout streak as he defeated Brandon Harder (2-2, 1 KO) of Southaven, Senhorita., in a super welterweight contest that saw Spencer knocking down Harder three times in less than two rounds. The 18-year-old Spencer, who fought 100 lutas como amador, established his jab early and landed at will. He threw and landed a straight right at the end of round one that sent Harder to his knees. Forty-five seconds into round two, Spencer sent Harder to the canvas again followed by a swarm of punches that ended the fight at 1:27 da ronda.

“Fans are going to see that I give it my all when I get in the ring and I’m going to put on a show,” said Spencer. “You’re going to get more and more tests in my career and I believe I will rise to the level of my competition. Sometimes you’re in there with an awkward guy, he proves to be a test. I’ll move to six rounds for my next fight. I want to fight four times this year and I’m looking forward to it.”

The Premier Boxing Champions Prelims on FS1 featured three bouts that all ended in exciting knockout victories, kicking off a great night of fights.

The Prelim telecast featured the long-awaited ring return of Guillermo Rigondeux (18-1, 12 KOs) who hadn’t fought since December 2017. The Cuban fan-favorite faced Giovanni Delgado of Tacubaya, Mex. (16-9, 9 KOs) and knocked him out in the last second of round one with an overhand left. Delgado could not be saved by the 10 count and the fight was called in favor of Rigondeux.

This is my division. Esta é a minha vez,” said Rigondeaux. “I am the king of 122 libras. Senti-me 100 por cento. Delgado is a good fighter. I take my hat off to him and his team. I came prepared and I am ready to face people that are undefeated. Whoever has a belt, I am taking it. You can expect me back in less than two months.

“I fought my idol tonight,” said Delgado. “I knew he hit hard, but I didn’t know he hit that hard. I have been cleared by the doctor and am fine. Just a little bit in shock.”

A scheduled eight-round light heavyweight bout featuring Egypt’s Ahmed Elbiali (18-1, 15 KOs) against 16-year veteran Allan Green (33-6, 22 KOs) de Tulsa, OK saw Elbiali knock Green down in every round. Contudo, Green did showcase his experience choosing to go toe-to-toe despite Elbiali’s aggression. Em última análise, it was a right uppercut followed by an overhand right that sent Green to the canvas as Elbiali scored a knockout at 1:16 de três rounds.

“I was easier than I thought it was going to be,” said Elbiali. “Losing to Pascal the way I did, it messes with you mentally. I was trying to stay on my A-game. Stay focused and thankfully it showed. My game plan clicked really well. I have been sparring with Caleb (Planta) and other great guys. That keeps you sharp and alert. I would love to win a world title and be the first Egyptian win a world championship.”

In the opening bout of the Premier Boxing Champions Prelims on FS1, Mexican Olympian Lindolfo Delgado (8-0, 8 KOs) of Linares, Mex. continued his professional knockout streak as he defeated Sergio Lopez (22-13-1, 15 KOs) of West Covina, CA via knockout at 2:48 da terceira rodada. Delgado has yet to fight 30 rounds in his eight fights as a professional. He was clearly the aggressor throughout the fight and landed almost 50 percent of his power punches.

We trust the plan that we have with my new coach William Cruz, and on the track with veteran José Bonet. The results will show in the fight. The chemistry that we developed in these past weeks of light training has been very good. This will be the first time that I’m not the favorite in a fight, and the motivation is incredible. It’s very huge. I like challenges. Our goal and focus is to take the victory and that Puerto Rico continues to shine in boxing”, said an emotional Rodríguez, from the Luis Muñoz Marín Airport in the city of Carolina, Puerto Rico.

In his last appearance, Abreu lost by unanimous decision in close fight against Egidijus Kavaliauskas of Lithuania.

DETROIT (Junho 23, 2018) - Claressa Shields se tornou campeã mundial de duas divisões, e Christina Hammer manteve seus dois cinturões do título mundial, ambos conquistando vitórias por decisão unânime na noite de sexta-feira em Showtime Boxing: EDIÇÃO ESPECIAL do Templo Maçônico em Detroit, me.

 

 

 

E agora eles têm os olhos postos um no outro.

 

 

 

Os dois escudos medalhistas de ouro olímpicos da vizinha Flint, Mich., foi derrubada pela primeira vez em sua carreira 53 segundos do primeiro round, mas ela foi capaz de voltar e vencer todas as rodadas depois disso para se tornar uma campeã mundial de duas divisões, capturando os vagos campeonatos mundiais dos médios IBF e WBA contra Hanna Gabriels. Os juízes marcaram a luta 98-91, 97-92 duas vezes.

 

 

 

Hammer entrou no ringue após a luta dos Shields, e um escudo emocional pressionado em direção a Hammer e alguns empurrões e empurrões se seguiram. (ver video AQUI)

 

 

 

"Estou cansado de Hammer me desrespeitando o tempo todo,”Escudos (6-0, 2 KOs) dito. “Ela entra no ringue depois de todos os meus direitos, fala lixo, e então ela vai lá e parece [porcaria] contra Nelson. Eu estou cansado disso. Mas eu a deixei saber que estou mais do que pronto para uma luta contra ela. Ela queria que eu perdesse esta noite, mas eu queria que ela ganhasse porque eu quero lutar com ela. Temos que nos unificar agora. ”

 

 

 

Shields e Gabriels começaram a luta balançando furiosamente, mas era Gabriels (18-2-1, 11 KOs) quem conectou em um uppercut direito enviando escudos para a tela. (veja o vídeo de knockdown AQUI)

 

 

 

“Uma vez eu desci, Respirei fundo e me lembro de pensar comigo mesmo, ‘Estou prestes a chicotear essa garota’ ”Shields disse. “Só me lembro de pensar: vamos usar o jab e ser inteligentes.”

 

 

 

Gabriels da Costa Rica, um titular unificado de 154 libras, estava ganhando peso e tentando se tornar um campeão mundial de três divisões. (veja os destaques de Shields-Gabriels AQUI).

 

 

 

“Eu treinei para ir longe mas meu coração me traiu, porque depois daquele primeiro golpe, Eu estava procurando por outro,”Disse Gabriels, o atual campeão WBA e WBO que estava lutando em seu 12th luta pelo título mundial desde a conquista do título dos meio-médios em 2009. “Eu queria mostrar a todos que tenho um coração de guerreiro.

 

 

 

“Eu não senti que tinha uma vantagem após o knockdown. Eu senti que tinha que trabalhar rodada após rodada para ter a chance de ganhar. ”

 

 

 

Gabriels adicionados: “Ela tem muito poder. Foi uma grande luta e você tem que aceitar a decisão dos jurados. Ela é poderosa e para os fãs acho que correu bem.

 

 

 

Shields sofreu um corte na bochecha esquerda em rodada 10, e também venceu uma cabeçada. Ela se lembra de ter sido ferida pelos socos de Gabriels na cabeça apenas três vezes na luta. “A primeira rodada, quarta rodada e oitava rodada, além disso, ela não me atingiu com nenhum tiro na cabeça. "

 

 

 

Shields - em sua primeira luta com o novo treinador John David Jackson - disse que aprendeu algo sobre si mesma após a luta. “Eu posso ser colocado na minha bunda, levante-se e volte e ganhe," ela disse. “Esta noite foi minha noite e eu tenho que mostrar ao mundo que sou o melhor de todos os tempos. Eu mostrei quem eu sou. Agora, Eu sou muito perigoso porque você pode até me colocar no chão, e ainda voltarei para vencer. ”

 

 

 

A diferença na luta era Shields’ accuracy, especially in terms of her power shots as she connected on 42 percent compared to Gabriels’ 26 por cento.

 

 

 

Shields was asked after the fight when she would like to face Hammer. “Hopefully it’s next," ela disse. “I don’t need no rest. I could have whipped her tonight. I’m just so sick of her and her whole team.”

 

 

 

 

 

In a lopsided win in her highly anticipated U.S. estréia, Martelo (23-0, 10 KOs) remained undefeated with a unanimous decision against Tori Nelson (17-2-3, 2 KOs). Os escores foram 100-90, 99-91 duas vezes, to retain her WBC and WBO Middleweight World Title belts. (see Hammer-Nelson highlights AQUI).

 

 

 

“It would have been better to get a KO,”Disse Martelo, que é 27 years old and from Dortmund, Alemanha. “I tried everything I could to get the knockout. Ela era durona. I hope the USA is good with this and I’m still the champ.”

 

 

 

“Estou realmente ansioso para lutar contra Claressa. Ela vai tentar lutar contra mim por dentro, mas meu trabalho de pés e meu alcance farão a diferença. A luta com Claressa será uma virada de jogo. Será a maior luta feminina de todos os tempos. Eu gostaria de lutar com ela em um local neutro. ”

 

 

 

“Estou muito decepcionado com meu desempenho esta noite,”Disse um Nelson emocionado após a luta. “É uma perda, claro que é decepcionante. Eu não estava ocupado o suficiente, Eu acho."

 

 

 

Em sua última luta, Nelson perdeu na decisão unânime para Shields em janeiro. “Claressa é melhor,”Nelson disse. “Shields dá um jab e usa o anel. Claressa fica lá e quer lutar. Ela tem todos os golpes. Hammer só tem um. ”

 

 

 

Na abertura da cerimônia, Umar Salamov (21-1, 16 KOs) connected on a lethal right hand in knocking out Brian Howard (13-2, 10 KOs) 53 seconds into the ninth round of a scheduled 10-round light heavyweight bout.

 

 

 

Salamov, de Alkhan-Kala, Rússia, was making his United States debut and trains at the famed Kronk Gym in Detroit with Javan “Sugar” Hill Steward. In a fight between two long and lanky fighters, Salamov landed 34 percent of his power punches compared to 27 percent for Howard and was ahead on all three judges’ scorecard at the time of the knockout.

 

 

 

“I was hurt a little bit in the second round from one of his shots, but I didn’t let it bother me because this is my U.S. estréia,”Disse Salamov, a six-year pro who is 24 anos. “I just kept fighting. After I got hit with that punch, I started coming forward and as soon as I did that, the fight changed.”

 

 

 

Salamov disse que soube assim que acertou na primeira direita que Howard estava ferido. “Eu soube assim que dei o soco que ele ficaria muito machucado,"Ele disse. “Senti até o cotovelo. Eu não queria bater nele depois disso porque sabia que ele estava acabado. "

 

 

 

O ex-cruiserweight Howard teve alguns destaques e foi capaz de acertar com a mão direita em várias ocasiões, incluindo um poderoso cruzamento de direita na sétima rodada que pareceu atordoar Salamov.

 

 

 

“Eu diria que fui justo, Eu fiz bem,”Disse Howard, um ex-jogador de futebol da liga menor que mora fora de Atlanta e estava fazendo sua estreia no SHOWTIME. “Tive a sorte de receber a ligação da equipe de Salamov e do SHOWTIME. Eu voltarei."

 

 

 

O tripleheader de sexta-feira será reproduzido na segunda-feira, Junho 25 em 10 p.m. ET / PT no SHOWTIME EXTREME e estará disponível no SHOWTIME ANYTIME® e SHOWTIME on DEMAND®.
