Hér er það sem þátttakendur höfðu að segja:
JACK BADOU
I’m looking forward to another victory. Þetta er að fara til vera a sterkur berjast, en ég er tilbúinn. I’ve been training really hard and I’m ready to get into the ring.
I’m more focused and determined now than ever to secure what is mine. The fans will have an exciting show to look forward to on Apríl 30. I can guarantee that!
My daughter being born this morning is extra motivation for me and to continue working hard to provide for my family. I only slept for 2 klst, but I feel brand new.
I still feel fresh! Æfingabúðir er gott. Everything is right on schedule. I’m feeling really focused.
LUCIAN Bute
The most important thing for me is to have fun when I train. My confidence level is back at 100 prósent. There’s a great atmosphere here at the gym and I have great chemistry with my trainers. I’ve done quality sparring and starting next week we’ll be reducing the training volume so as to focus more on the level of intensity.
The pressure won’t be on me because I’ll be on his turf, í Washington. He is the favorite because he’s the champion, but I’m confident and I’m able! We looked at some video of him with Howard (Grant). Hann er góður Boxer, but he’s not exceptional and he makes mistakes. I have experience. This will be my 13th world championship fight. My experience and my speed will make the difference.
My confidence level wasn’t at 100 percent before I fought James DeGale, but now it’s all back after performing the way I did against him. All the better for me if Badou Jack is already looking ahead to his next fight, is taking me for granted and is underestimating me. I know for my part that I can beat him. He did well in his last bout against George Groves, where he was able to come up with a good right blow that sent him to the canvas. But I’m going there to deliver.
I’ve now been training for a year with Howard Grant, who already knows me well and pushes me to go beyond my limits. We’ve developed a trusting relationship and I feel very comfortable working alongside him. It’s hard to put into words! It’s true, Ég er 36 ára, but I still have some good years ahead of me in professional boxing. For Éric Lucas, who had this belt for several years, I will bring back the title to the province of Quebec.
SHARIF BOGERE
Training camp has been going tremendously well. I’m excited to get back in action on Apríl 30. it’s going to be a good show. Two world titles on the line, that’s something big.
I want people to know who The Lion er. People will know that The Lion is here to stay. I will put on a great show as I always do.
I want to put on a good show so the fans will never forget about my presence in this division. Being born in Uganda, it’s important for me to make my homeland proud.
LATONDRIA JONES
“Æfingabúðir hefur gengið vel, I am looking forward to going into the fight real strong, dominating and come out with a win. It’s important that I continue to stay mentally focused and physically ready.
I don’t really look too much into to my opponents, until I’m getting ready for that belt. As far as I know, this is her pro debut. I’m going to show her what this is all about, and give her that pro life.
I was born in D.C. svo, I look forward to going back and fighting at the Armory to give my hometown fans what they want to see. They came to see a show, and I plan on delivering. I look forward to getting better and coming out on top. I’m working hard and taking it day-by-day. I thank God for being in this position that I’m in.

The fighters were joined by Mayweather PromotionsFloyd Mayweather og Leonard Ellerbe, Interbox’s Pierre Duc and SHOWTIME’s Stephen Espinoza as they spoke to the media about the exciting doubleheader taking place in the nation’s capital.
Hér er það sem þátttakendur höfðu að segja Föstudagur:
JACK BADOU
I’ll be ready for this fight. Bute is a very tough opponent. I have to bring my ‘Agame to win. Much respect to him, but he’s not leaving with my belt. Absolutely not. You can expect a very tough fight.
Bute is a much, much tougher opponent that Julio Cesar Chavez Jr., but I’m ready for him.
Bute’s fight against DeGale was one of the best fights last year. That’s the only reason he got this shot. He lost, but he looked good. Það var mikill bardagi. Apríl 30 will be another great fight. And another loss for Bute.
LUCIAN Bute
This is a great opportunity for me to fight again for a title. Mér finnst gott, I started camp six weeks ago. Mikilvægast af öllu, I’m very healthy. Psychologically, I’m looking forward to becoming a world champion on Apríl 30.
I respect Badou Jack. He is a great champion, frábær bardagamaður, en á Apríl 30, I will become a world champion again. I’m looking forward to it.
I will be the new champion. I am very confident. Ég býst því að vera mjög sterkur berjast, but I am coming here to win.
I have a new team. They are changing some things in my work. My confidence is 100 prósent. I’m working every day very tough and I am confident that everything will be great for Apríl 30.”
Floyd Mayweather, Forseti Mayweather Tilboð
This fight is about the best facing the best. I’ve seen Bute fight numerous times and he’s a very exciting and explosive fighter. Every time he goes out there and performs he gives 100 prósent.
Mayweather Promotions is about giving people the best and most exciting fights.
I commend Badou Jack for the way that he carries himself. He is a true gentlemen and that is what this sport is all about. He’s going to continue to make a name for himself in this sport.
PIERRE DUC, VP of Interbox
We’re very thrilled about this fight. For those of you who have not been exposed to Lucian Bute before, hann er frábær bardagamaður. He’s been working extremely hard over the course of the last 6-12 months getting ready for a moment like this.
Bute has a very long history of fighting great fights and championship wars. Lucian will be ready for this.
Training camp is going astonishingly well. Lucian is usually more of a gentleman, so he will say he wants to do the best that he can, but I’m telling you that Lucian is going to be walking away with this belt. It’s going to be a fantastic and very exciting evening. Lucian will pull the upset on Apríl 30.”
STEPHEN Espinoza, Executive VP & General Manager, Showtime Sports
The one comment I will make about this event, other than to point out it features four of the best fighters in the division, is that it was quite possibly the easiest event to make out of all the events we made this spring and summer. That’s a credit to the promoters and especially a credit to all four fighters.
We didn’t just make two fights here. We’ve got the winners of these fights fighting later in the year in a unification match. To be able to make two fights very quickly and to get everyone on board with fighting the winners in a unification match with no mess, no politics, no arguments and no hesitation is an accomplishment.
These are four real fighters here and they were not afraid of a challenge, they didn’t hesitate at all. This is what the sport of boxing is all about. I personally can’t wait for April 30th and for a unification later in the year.

LONDON (Mars 29, 2016) – IBF Super Middleweight heimsmeistari James DeGale held an open media workout á þriðjudag in London as he prepares to make the second defense of his title against mandatory challenger Rogelio Medina á Laugardagur, Apríl 30, lifa á Showtime frá DC Armory í Washington, D.C.
Í aðalkeppni af Showtime CHAMPIONSHIP Hnefaleikar doubleheader (10 p.m. OG/7 p.m. PT), WBC 168-pound champion Badou Jack defends his title against former longtime titlist Lucian Bute. The winners will meet in a super middleweight world-title unification fight later this year.

See below for quotes from DeGale as he prepares to face Medina:
I’ve never disrespected an opponent yet in the ring and I’m not going to start now. Medina has a very good record and that means he is as dangerous and the next man. This is boxing and unless you prepare properly you get found out. I’m not going down that avenue. I’m a winner and what I do is get in the ring and win. That’s what Medina is up againsta world champion and a winner.
I’m too good for him, of hratt, of mikil, too quick. I’ll beat him and it is just a question of how. I don’t care how it comes as long as I look good and I give the fans what they want, another winning performance and a reminder that I am the best super middleweight out there operating today.
I respect Medina, but I belong in a different level and I will show that on Apríl 30.
I’m looking forward to it because this is another chance to show what I can do in America and it is also a mini-tournament. The winner of my fight faces the winner of Badou Jack and Lucian Bute and that means a world unification clash. I want to clean up the division and I have the opportunity to do that.
I think Jack will win, but I’ve been in the ring with Bute and I know how strong he is. He is a proper fighter and I would always give him a chance against anyone. I think Jack will be too good for him, but who knows? I hope it is Jack as I’ve already taken care of business against Bute, but I want to unify the titles and that means I will fight whoever is put in front of me.
I’ve no trouble fighting in the U.S. and never will. I would love to win again and take on the winner of Jack and Bute in London, but that is down the line. What I am concentrating on right now is the next person who is standing in my way and that is Medina.
I can’t wait to get back in action because I live for fighting. It is in my blood and I know that a win over Medina means a very lucrative fight with Jack or Bute. I’m in this to make me financially comfortable for the rest of my life but above all, I’m in it for the glory.
The day I became world champion was the best of my life, along with winning Olympic Gold, and I don’t want to be a world champion for a few months. I want to be recognized as one of the greats in the super middleweight division. That means win a title and defend it against all-comers, anywhere and everywhere.

The winners will meet in a super middleweight world-title unification fight later this year.
Jack (20-1-1, 12 Kos) will make his second title defense after a breakthrough 2015 campaign in which he won the WBC belt from Anthony Dirrell and successfully defended against George Groves. The southpaw Bute (32-3, 25 Kos), a former IBF champion with nine defenses between 2007 og 2012, revived his career last November with a gutsy and inspired performance against DeGale.
I’ve been training really hard for this fight and I’m excited to get in the ring,” sagði Jack. “I can’t wait to defend my title once again on Apríl 30. The fans can expect to see an explosive and skillful performance from me come fight night. I believe I’m the best super middleweight in the world and that I have the skills to beat anyone I get in the ring with. I’m fully focused on Lucian Bute, but I know that a win can set up a massive fight against James DeGale and I’m going to deliver.
I’m thrilled to have this tremendous opportunity,” Said Bute. “I was ringside for Badou Jack’s last two fightswell deserved world title wins. He is a great champion. I plan to train hard and be in the best shape of my career on Apríl 30. It’s my chance to win the WBC belt and become two-time world champion. I will win and give boxing fans a spectacular fight.
DeGale (22-1, 14 Kos) will make his second title defense after an impressive 2015 in which he defeated Andre Dirrell to win the vacant IBF belt and topped Bute in a Fight of the Year candidate. The hard-hitting Medina (35-6, 29 Kos), the IBF’s mandatory challenger, has knocked out three consecutive opponents.
I am delighted to be defending my world title on another great show in the United States,” said DeGale. “I won my belt in style in Boston and I’m looking forward to moving down the East Coast to the great city of Washington, D.C. It’s going to be a defining night in the super middleweight division as Badou Jack and myself look to set up a huge fight later in the year. I’m fully focused on Rogelio Medina. He’s a tough Mexican who earned his title shot. En treystu mér, no one is getting my world title.
This is such a great opportunity for me and I can’t wait to get in the ring,” said Medina. “I’ve worked so hard for this and I am going to make the most of it. Everyone who has seen me fight knows I leave it all in the ring and you can expect to see an all-out battle on Apríl 30. Ég mun vera nýr heimsmeistari.”

Mayweather Promotions is proud to bring another exciting night of boxing to the great boxing fans in my hometown of Washington, D.C.,” Said Leonard Ellerbe, Forstjóri Mayweather Promotions. “I’m really excited about the Badou Jack vs. Lucian Bute fight. Það er að fara til vera a mikill bardagi. We know Bute is tough as nails and he’s coming to take the title away from Badou. Badou is going to have to be at his best to be able to beat Bute that night. The winner of that fight will set up a spectacular unification fight with the winner of the fight between British champion James DeGale and Mexican brawler ‘PorkyMedina. DeGale can’t take Medina lightly if he wants the unification bout. It’s going to be a thrilling night of action at the DC Armory and on SHOWTIME.
Badou Jack “The Ripper”, of Las Vegas by way of Stockholm, Svíþjóð, captured the WBC 168-pound crown with a 12-round majority decision over previously unbeaten defending champion Anthony Dirrelllast Apríl 24. A former amateur standout who represented Gambia in the 2008 Olympics, Jack retained his belt against former world title challenger George Groves last Seven. 12 on the undercard of Floyd Mayweather’s final fight. Jack, who fights under the Mayweather Promotions banner, was an underdog against both Dirrell and Groves. The 6-fótur-1, 32-year-old has won four in a row since a shocking first-round knockout loss to Derek Edwards in February 2014.
Bute, of Montreal, Canada by way of Romania, has been a super middleweight mainstay for the last decade. He has competed in 12 title fights since 2007, scoring seven knockouts in nine consecutive defenses of the IBF belt he won in 2007 in his adopted hometown of Montreal. During his title reign, the 36-year-old defeated the likes of Glen Johnson, Librado Andrade and Jean-Paul Mendy, but he lost the belt to Carl Froch in 2012 and a string of injuries kept him largely inactive over the next three years. Bute returned from a 19-month absence in August 2015 under new trainer Howard Grant, knocking out Andrea Di Luisa to set up the title shot against DeGale for the crown he once held. Bute stalked the switch-hitting DeGale with a relentless attack, turning in his most impressive performance in years in a close decision loss.
James “ChunkyDeGale, London, England, won the vacant IBF belt in his U.S. debut last May by dropping Andre Dirrell twice on his way to a unanimous decision. The 2008 Olympic Gold Medalist then successfully defended it last November in a thrilling shootout with hometown favorite and former titlist Lucian Bute. The 30-year-old, who’s only blemish came in a majority decision in his 11th bout against then-unbeaten George Groves, will make his third consecutive start outside his native England as he looks to become a global power at 168 £.
RogelioPorkyMedina is a hard-hitting veteran with 30 knockouts í hans 36 career wins. He’s knocked out three consecutive opponents, including a shocking third-round knockout of then-undefeated J’Leon Love in August, 2014. Medina, 27, has suffered six losses in 42 berst, although those defeats came against opponents with a combined record of 187-16-3, including four previously undefeated fighters.

QUEBEC CITY, Canada (Nóvember. 29, 2015) - James DeGale varði IBF Super hans Middleweight World Championship í spennumynd yfir heimabæ uppáhalds og fyrrum meistari Lucian Bute á laugardag í aðalkeppni á Showtime Championship Boxing.

 

Það var fyrsti titill vörn fyrir DeGale, að 2008 Olympic gull Minnispeningur frá Bretlandi sem fór á veginum til Boston til að vinna titilinn fyrr á þessu ári og kaus að verja í fjandsamlegt landsvæði.

 

Bute, sem var að reyna að vinna aftur IBF belti hann varði níu sinnum á milli 2007 og 2012, put on an inspired and gutsy performance in an electric atmosphere to open the new Videotron Centre in Quebec City. But the unbelievable pace, auk vopnabúr af overhand réttindi, líkami skot og combos frá yngri DeGale (22-1, 14 Kos) reyndist vera munur sem DeGale ríkti 116-112, 117-111 (tvisvar).

 

"Ég er ungur og ég er ferskur. Ég náði hámarki núna,” DeGale said. “I’m ready for the best in the world. Credit til Bute – hann er mikill meistari og trúðu mér, Hann verður aftur. "

 

"Eins og ég hef sagt áður, Hann er heimsklassa bardagamaður. Ég hef samt fengið það til að vinna á næstu þremur eða fjórum árum og ég ætla að vera mitt besta. "

 

Bute (32-3, 25 Kos) didn’t look anything like the fighter that lost to Carl Froch in 2012. But while the 35-year-old stalked the switch-hitting DeGale with a relentless attack, hann gat ekki gert nóg til að yfirbuga ákaflega virkt Brit, sem kastaði 524 máttur högg miðað við 278 fyrir Bute.

 

“I think it was a great fight. I did my best tonight,” Bute said. “I think it was a close fight. He’s an Olympic champion, he’s a world champion. If the judges give him the decision I respect that. I’ll be back in the gym to work hard and continue to fight. I think it was a very close fight. I’m happy with my performance and I’ll be back in the gym to get back in the ring one more time.

 

“The last three years were difficult for me. After I lost to Carl Froch that was a very difficult period for me. I took a break, and now I’m back. Mér finnst frábært, Mér finnst heilbrigt og nú hef ég eitt tækifæri til að vera aftur á toppinn.

 

“Maybe a few rounds I waited too much and didn’t put the punches together and I let James fight me. When I pushed pressure and pushed back I won the round.”

 

Í opnun bardaga á Showtime Championship Boxing, Eleider Alvarez unnið sér rétt til að takast WBC Light Heavyweight heimsmeistari Adonis Stevenson með nánu meirihlutaákvörðun yfir Isaac Chilemba, skoraði 114-114, 118-110, 115-113.

 

Alvarez, raðað nr. 2 með WBC á 175 £, byrjaði fljótur og vasi umferðir gegn nr. 1 ranked contender Chilemba. But Chilemba weathered the storm and fought his way back in the fight as Alvarez couldn’t keep up the pace he established in the earlier rounds.

 

Bæði bardagamenn kom út með tilfinningu brýnt í að 12th og ákveða vísu og ef Chilemba hafði unnið lokahringinn baráttan hefði verið útilokað jafntefli.

 

"Ég vissi að ég þurfti að klára síðar umferðir sterka, en ég tel að ég gerði nóg til að vinna baráttuna,” Alvarez said. “I’m ready to accept the challenge and face Stevenson. Til að vera heimsmeistari, þú þarft að slá meistari. Svo það er það sem ég miða að gera. "

 

Mark hélt því fram að ALVAREZ, sem berst út úr nágrenninu Montreal, nytu góðs af "heimabæ ákvörðun,"Þótt dómarinn sem úrskurðaði í baráttunni jafntefli var á staðnum og hinir tveir voru frá hlutlausum svæðum.

 

"Ég hélt að ég gerði nóg til að vinna það,” Chilemba said. “But it is what it is. Ég held að þú getur hringt í hana a heimabæ ákvörðun. "

 

Eftir að berjast, Showtime Sports gestgjafi Brian Custer settist niður með Stevenson að fá hugsunum sínum á Alvarez-Chilemba og framtíð hans.

 

"Það var loka líkamlega berjast,” Stevenson said. "Hann (Alvarez) vann þessari baráttu en það var mjög nálægt. "

 

"Við tölum um Kovalev því WBC röðum honum enn Nei. 1 keppinautur. Ég vil þetta berjast að gerast. The fans want it to happen. I said June is perfect for me. He said ‘OK, Júní,"Kathy Duva sagði" Ekkert vandamál, June.’ Then she said on HBO. Ég sagði, "Gleymdu sjónvörp, let them talk.’ We want the fight to happen. Let the TVs work together and make it happen.

 

“I want to fight Kovalev. That’s the best opportunity for me because I want his titles. For sure, this fight will happen in June. I don’t have a problem; my team doesn’t have a problem. I want this fight in June.

 

Kovalev is scared. I talked to him, saw it in his eyes that he’s scared of me. It will happen, but I know Kovalev is scared. I want Kovalev. I’m very hungry to get his titles.”

 

Adrian Granados lifað fyrsta umferð knockdown losti undefeated frábær léttur horfur Amir Imam í opnun lota af Showtime Hnefaleikar ON Sho Extreme með áttunda umferð TKO (2:34).

 

Það var alger ósigur fyrir Imam, sem slegið berjast eins NO. 1 skylda Challenger að WBC Super Léttur heimsmeistari Viktor Postol.

 

Imam looked like he was going to finish the fight early after a nice left-right combo floored the Chicago native. But after escaping the first, Granados ráðist taktur í baráttunni, worked the inside and prevented Imam – considered one of boxing’s most talented young contenders – from establishing his jab. With Imam unable to keep the fight at a distance, Granados picked apart the Don King-promoted fighter. After seven rounds of punishment and Iman gasping for air against the ropes Granados finished his opponent with a series of devastating combo shots.

 

An elated Granados (15-3-2, 10 Kos), sem hefur tap bardagamenn með samanlagt skrá yfir 49-0, flutti mál sitt til að verða nauðsynlegur Challenger.

 

"Ég tel að ég ætti að vera skylda Challenger,” Granados said. “He was in line and I stopped him. Hvað þýðir það? Come on. I was the underdog, en ég kom bara til að taka það. Ég kom til að taka það.

 

"Það finnst frábært. Þegar ég hafði hann wobbled ég var eins, "Þú hefur fengið að fá hann núna. This time you’re not taking it from me.’ It was a flash knockdown. Hann tók með hægri hendi, en ég var allt í lagi. Ég smella bara rétt upp og ég vissi að hann var að fara að reyna að klára mig. Við fengum út úr því og fór strax aftur til vinnu. "

 

Þrátt fyrir demoralizing tap, Ég hef (18-1, 15 Kos) ekki sjá eftir að taka upp baráttuna sem mun líklega knýja hann út úr titlinum deilum.

 

"Ég veit að fólk gæti sagt að ég ætti ekki að hafa tekið þessari baráttu, en ég þurfti þessa baráttu á milli sem stilla upp fyrir næstu baráttu mína vegna þess að ég vildi ekki að bíða eftir sex til átta mánuði fyrir titli heimsins skot.

 

"Lykillinn að baráttunni var jab mín, Ég bara vissi ekki að nota það nóg,” Imam said. “But that’s the way it goes and I’m going to definitely come back stronger. I wasn’t thinking anything after that first-round knockdown. I’ve done that many times and didn’t think the fight was over. I wasn’t surprised at all by the way he came out. Ég veit hvernig hann berst. Hann er góður bardagamaður og það er allt það er til það. "

"Ég veit að ég er að taka áhættu með því að taka þessa baráttu en ég ætla að nýta sér þetta. Ég virkilega þarf ekki hvíld vegna þess að ég er í ræktina engu að síður. Svo skulum við fá bara þessa baráttu út af the vegur og ég ætla bara að bíða eftir titli heimsins baráttunni.

 

"Ég finn ekki þrýsting. Ég veit hvað ég hljóp inn þegar ég lenti í þetta faglega box leik, og ég er með gott lið í kringum mig. Við erum þétt hring og mjög sterkur, og þegar tækifæri koma, Ég ætla að vera tilbúinn til að nýta sér það.

 

"Fólk er að tala um mig langaði til að berjast Errol Spence og fá hefna sín (á fyrri bandarískt. Olympic box rannsóknum tap). Ég hef ekki hefnd á huga minn. Ég meina, við gætum örugglega gert það þegar ég flyt upp þyngd bekknum, en núna er ég áherslu á 140 pund titil skot. Ég vil að þessi titill skot í byrjun 2016 gegn (núverandi WBC heimsmeistari) Viktor Postol.

 

"(Postol) er góður bardagamaður og hann fékk titilinn fyrir ástæðu, en þú getur ekki fela og hlaupa of lengi og tími minn er að koma á næsta ári. Þú færð einn vörn og þá er það allt mér. Það er allt Young Master. "

 

ADRIAN Granados

"Ég myndi segja að þetta er stærsta berjast á mínum ferli. Það er að fara til vera a mikill bardagi og ég hlakka til a mikill nótt.

 

"(Imam er) fékk mikið af verkfærum og hann er mjög hæfileikaríkur. Við munum taka það umferð með umferð og gera breytingar sem baráttan fer.

 

"Ég hef góðum bata. Ég er ekki ánægður með hvernig ferill minn hefur farið og hafði mikið af slæmum ákvörðunum og stjórnun vandamál. Ég var ekki alinn eftir eins andstæðingurinn minn var. En það hefur hjálpað mér að vaxa smá þykka húð og eiginleika hvers vegna ég er hér í dag.

 

"Ég hef staðið frammi erfiðar bardagamenn áður og það er ekki í fyrsta skipti sem ég hef verið lítilmagni. Ég mun draga burt þessa uppnámi.

 

"Ég er að leita að hneyksla box heiminum á laugardag nótt. "

 

OSCAR Rivas

"Styrkur minn er hraði minn og hvernig ég setti þrýsting á andstæðingi mínum. Þannig að ég ætla að fara eftir (Abell) og mun setja mikla pressu á hann þar til hann fellur.

 

"Ég er svo spennt og ofsakæti að berjast aftur á stóra sviðinu. Ég barðist á ShoBox í síðustu baráttu mínu og það var ótrúlegt. Það er svo mikilvægt fyrir mig að fá séð svo ég geti uppfyllt draum minn og fá inn í the toppur 10 í deild minni.

 

"Þetta er stærsta berjast á ferli mínum og stærsta tækifæri sem ég hef fengið. Ég vil bara vera viss um að ég grípa það og líta fallegt. "

 

STACY McKinley, Framkvæmdastjóri Imam og þjálfari

"Ég get ekki fundið neitt sem við þurfum að vinna á. Amir er sterk og tæknilega hljóð og hann er að fá meiri reynslu í hvert skipti sem hann berst. Hann er hrikalegt puncher. Hann er fullur pakki og það er mjög erfitt að finna. Þeir koma ekki um of oft.

 

"Mig langar hann til að berjast Adrien Broner næsta ári. Mig langar til að berjast alla strákana og sameina allar titla á næsta ári. Boxing er að fara að þurfa nýja Superstar nú að Floyd Mayweather er farinn, og við erum ekki að fara að bíða 15 ár að gera annað. Ég held Amir sameinar alla titla á 140 og 147, þá viljum við hafa nýja Superstar okkar innan 36 mánuðum.

 

"Hann þarf að nota jab hans til að vinna á laugardag. Hann fékk fallega jab, besta jab í hnefaleikum. Og allt þarf að koma strax á bak við það. "

"Ég vil bara segja að það er frábært að vera hluti af þessum atburði. Mr. DeGale er meistari og hann er að koma að Mr. Land Bute til að berjast gegn honum. Það er það sem box þarf. Það þarf fleiri slagsmál svona til að halda henni að aukast.

"Eins og langt eins barátta okkar fer með Mr. Alvarez, Ég tel að fyrir utan (Sergey) Kovalev, þessir tveir eru bestu ljós heavyweights í heiminum. Og ég held að þeir ættu að vera að berjast um titilinn og ekki Eliminator að sjá sem berst meistari. "
