All four of these anticipated bouts will be presented in association with Premier Boxing Champions.

SHOWTIME Sports produced the strongest lineup of world-class boxing events of any network this year, delivering 18 world title fights devoid of mismatches and “tune-up” fights. The best fought the best, and the results were spectacular: two “Fight of the Year” contenders, Thurman-Shawn Porter and Santa Cruz-Frampton; a “Knockout of the Year” frontrunner by one of boxing’s biggest punchers, Deontay Wilder; and the arrival of one of boxing’s most marketable new stars in Anthony Joshua. SHOWTIME also featured the trio of junior middleweight champions, the Charlo twins, Jermall and Jermell, and Erislandy Lara, all in title fights on one card; highlighted the world’s best featherweights in Santa Cruz, Frampton, Gary Russell Jr. and Lee Selby; and set the table for the title unification fight between super middleweight champions Badou Jack and James DeGale.

All bouts will air live on SHOWTIME with the exception of Garcia vs. Thurman, which will either air live in Primetime on CBS or live on SHOWTIME.

Seven of the 14 fighters are undefeated, while the champions and challengers in the six world title fights boast a combined 313 wins versus just six losses.

*World title bout
 **World title unification bout

“This is a slate of high-level, evenly-matched, 50/50 fights – the best fighting the best – which has become the calling card of SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING,” said Espinoza. “Every fight we are announcing today features a top 10-ranked champion taking on a top 10-ranked challenger; in many cases, it’s top-five vs. top-five.

“This is our second major boxing lineup announcement this year, further proof that no other network is delivering high-quality competitive fights – without relying on PPV – as consistently as SHOWTIME. No other network is as committed to driving the sport forward. SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING is giving subscribers the best that boxing has to offer.”

Subota, Jan. 14 – SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING

Super middleweight world champions Badou Jack a James DeGale are set to unify the 168-pound class. Both champions retained their titles on a doubleheader last Travanj 30 na Showtime. Jack kept his WBC belt in a controversial draw with longtime titlist Lucian Bute that many thought Jack clearly won. Earlier that evening, DeGale successfully defended his IBF crown with a unanimous decision over mandated challenger Rogelio Medina. Jack landed 61 posto svojih energetskih udaraca, while DeGale connected on an astonishing 66 posto svojih energetskih kadrova. Sada, Jack and DeGale will face off in a long-awaited unification to determine the No. 1 fighter in the super middleweight division.

Subota, Jan. 28 – SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING
Presented in association with Premier Boxing Champions

The most anticipated rematch in boxing will take place when Carl Framptona Leo Santa Cruz square off in an immediate rematch of a leading 2016 Borba of the Year kandidata. In their first encounter Srpanj 30 na Showtime, former super bantamweight champ Frampton moved up in weight to challenge fellow unbeaten Santa Cruz, edging the three-division titlist in a firefight. The must-see rematch will be the sixth featherweight world championship on SHOWTIME in less than 12 mjeseci.

The co-feature pits undefeated lightweights Dejan Zlaticanin against resurgent fan favorite Mikey Garcia. Zlaticanin is making the first defense of his WBC 135-pound crown against the former two-division titlist in Garcia. The champion is the No. 1 borac na 135 funti, while Garcia is aiming to become a three-division world champion in just his second fight back from a two-and-a-half year layoff.

Subota, Veljače. 11 – SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING

Četiri podjela svjetski prvak Adrien Broner will face the streaking Adrian Granados in a matchup of top-10 ranked 140-pound fighters. The flashy Broner, who has captured titles at 130, 135, 140 a 147 funti, has scored two consecutive knockouts in the super lightweight division. The hard-charging, all-action Granados, who pulled a stunning upset of then-undefeated WBC No. 1 ranked super lightweight Amir Imam in a dominating performance last November on SHOWTIME, thrives in the underdog role and has a deceiving record – his four defeats, all via split or majority decision, have come against opponents with a cumulative record of 52-1.

Presented in association with Premier Boxing Champions

Undefeated welterweight world champions Keith Thurman a Danny Garciahave been on a collision course for more than a year. Thurman has held a version of the WBA Welterweight World Championship since 2013 but announced his arrival in March 2015 with an emphatic win over Robert Guerrero. Thurman has since defended the title twice, including most recently against former world champion Shawn Porter in a potential Fight of the Year thriller in June on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING on CBS. Garcia, after conquering the 140-pound division, captured the WBC Welterweight World Championship with an impressive performance against Guerrero in January. Should Garcia defeat Samuel Vargas on Studeni. 12 in a non-title fight, he and Thurman are set to meet in a marquee unification blockbuster between undefeated champions at the pinnacle of their careers. Garcia vs. Thurman will air live in Primetime on CBS or live on SHOWTIME.

BROOKLYN (Srpanj 31, 2016) – In a possible “Fight of the Year” showdown between two undefeated fighters, Carl Frampton edged Leo Santa Cruz in a firefight to capture the WBA Featherweight World Championship in the main event of SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING® Subota ispred 9,062 fans at the electric Barclays Center in Brooklyn.

 

Frampton (23-0, 14 Kos), the former unified super bantamweight champion who moved up to 126 pounds to challenge Santa Cruz (32-1-1, 18 Kos), became the first native of Northern Ireland to become a two-division world champion.

 

The majority decision, zabio 114-114 nacrtati, 116-112 a 117-111, was fought at a blistering pace from the outset.

 

Santa Cruz’s hallmark has always been his high-octane output and power punching, but the three-division world champion was unable to utilize his reach advantage, and his activity was eliminated by Frampton’s tremendous counterpunching and power shots. While both fighters are top 10 in the world in jabs, a staggering 402 of their 497 combined landed punches were power shots.

 

While Santa Cruz landed almost equal the amount of power shots – 206 vs. 191 – the 46 percent that Frampton connected on appeared to land cleaner and inflict more damage. And while Santa Cruz was the taller fighter, he lunged forward and fought short on the inside, allowing Frampton to minimize the reach and contest the battle toe-to-toe, where it suited him best.

 

“It’s a dream come true,"Rekao je Frampton. “I had the dream of winning a world title and I won it, but I never thought I’d win in two divisions. To je bio tvrd borba, I wanted it to be a tough fight because I wanted a fight the people could remember. I respect him a lot. He was a true warrior.

 

“I had a good game plan. Shane was an unbelievable coach. He told me every time I came back into the corner that we could win this a lot easier. But I won it with my heart, not with my head and I got my hand raised.

 

“Distance control and hitting hard were the keys. I won the fight because I didn’t lose control. I earned his respect early in the fight with my distance control and hard punching. I would love to take this man to Belfast for a rematch and show the people there what a great fighter he is.”

 

In calling out the other champions at 126 pounds – including IBF champion Lee Selby and WBC champion Gary Russell Jr, who were both in attendance – Frampton said: “I want big, memorable fights.” Click OVDJE for Frampton’s full post fight interview.

 

Santa Cruz, who captured belts at 118, 122 a 126 funti, disagreed with decision but agreed with Frampton’s wish for a rematch.

 

“It was a tough fight from the beginning,” Santa Cruz said. “We knew it was going to be a tough fight, but I thought it was close when I was in there throwing. Maybe the judges were hearing the crowd and thought that every little punch was scoring.

 

“He has a difficult style, but we know his style and will get him in the rematch. The crowd was cheering, and I think the judges saw that. Maybe, without that, we would have had a draw or maybe a decision.

 

“It’s hard to get your first loss, but now we’ll go back to the gym, we’ll get the rematch and we’ll win. And that loss will mean nothing. I want to have a rematch in Los Angeles, but I’ll go to Belfast too.”

 

Undefeated former two-division world champion Mikey Garcia returned to the ring in impressive fashion after a two-and-a-half year absence, flooring former titlist Elio Rojas four times en route to a fifth round TKO (2:02).

 

Garcia (35-0, 29 Kos) showed no signs of ring rust as he stalked forward from the opening bell. The former 126 and 130-pound titlist and pound-for-pound mainstay floored Rojas (24-3, 14 Kos) midway through the third with a right-left combo, sending the Dominican to the canvas for just the second time in his career. Rojas beat the count, but a monster right sent him falling face-forward less than one minute later for the second knockdown of the round. Opet, the durable Rojas continued to come forward as Garcia teed-off.

 

Rojas was tagged again midway through the fifth with a huge right, falling to the canvas for the third time in fight. Now bleeding from his nose, Rojas was knocked down again just seconds later by a brutal right uppercut from Garcia. Opet, Rojas beat the count, but looked defeated and referee Eddie Claudio stopped the fight.

 

“The two-and-a-half-year layoff sparked a fire in me and motivated me to do the best that I could,” said Garcia, koji je sletio 50 posto svojih energetskih kadrova. “Elio is a tough guy and a former world champion. He didn’t come for a paycheck; he came to win.

 

“Elio took advantage of the opportunity. But we trained for a great performance like this and I was thrilled to get the job done. It felt great to be here with a supportive crowd behind me. I’m looking forward to getting back in there and winning another world title.”

 

Despite the four knockdowns, Rojas disagreed with the stoppage and wanted to continue fighting.

 

“I was able to get off the canvas because I trained so hard,” Rojas said. “Mikey is just stronger. I’m a natural 126-pounder fighting above my weight. It was a great matchup and Mikey is a great fighter. I have no doubt that he is going to take over the division.

 

“I was very upset when the fight was stopped. I wanted to keep going because I have a champion’s heart and I never want to quit.”

 

Once-beaten 154-pound contender Tony Harrison secured the IBF’s No. 2 position with a ninth round TKO (1:18) od Sergey Rabchenko in the opening bout of the SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast.

 

Harrison (24-1, 20 Kos) is now ranked No. 2 behind IBF Junior Middleweight World Champion Jermall Charlo and No. 1 mandatory challenger Julian Williams, who have agreed to fight later this year.

 

Harrison set up the distance with his jab, controlled the pace and outpunched Rabchenko (27-2, 20 Kos) by a nearly 2-1 margin. He was breaking Rabchenko down with a steady diet of power shots and well-timed jabs when he floored the Belarus native with a sharp right hand one minute into the ninth. Rabchenko got up, but looked defeated and unsteady on his feet, forcing referee Arthur Mercante to halt the contest.

 

Harrison landed 11 od 40 jabs per round on top of an impressive 46 posto svojih energetskih kadrova.

 

“This is definitely my biggest win ever,” Harrison said. “I was luring him to sleep. My trainer told me that I would have the right hand behind the jab and that’s what happened. I’m a finisher. I had him hurt and I said to the ref ‘you better not let him go.’ I knew I had him beat.

 

“A focused Tony Harrison can beat anybody at 154-pounds. Now it’s on Jermall Charlo and Julian Williams. I’m in the catbird seat.”

 

Rabcheko threw an average of only 31 punches po krugu, connecting just seven per round.

“I didn’t throw enough punches,” Rabchenko admitted. “I kept relying on my defense and didn’t attack enough. I was looking for one shot and it was difficult to do it against Tony Harrison with one punch. The ref did a great job with the stoppage. My health is first and foremost. The health of any fighter is the most important thing. I knew I couldn’t continue.”

 

Former two-division world champion and SHOWTIME analyst Paulie Malignaggi won a 10-round unanimous decision over fellow Brooklynite Gabriel Bracero in the “Battle for Brooklyn.” The welterweight bout was scored 96-94 a 98-92 dvaput.

 

“The Magic Man” stuck to his usual game plan, jabbing at range and utilizing his reach advantage against the naturally smaller Bracero, who was unable to get inside against the master technician. Malinaggi (36-7, 7 Kos) dictated the pace and was the more effective fighter, slijetanje 35 percent of his total punches compared to 29 for Bracero (24-3, 5 Kos). Malignaggi dominated with the jab, slijetanje 11 per round, which is double the welterweight average.

 

“I knew Bracero was a counter-puncher like myself. I was just trying to be the sharper counter-puncher. We both try to set traps and I just wanted to make him earn any points that he got. Istovremeno, I felt like I had to earn my points. I dictated the fight with pot shots and stepping over.

 

“I didn’t want to get desperate. I wanted to force him to get desperate from being behind on the scorecards. I think I did a good job of that. As the fight went on, I just used my movement and feints to stay in control.

 

“The plan was to keep it simple – if he didn’t adjust to any traps, then I was going to keep using them. I kept it as simple as I could against a guy who if you complicate things, he will catch you. He’s a counter-puncher who can make you pay. "

 

Later in the evening, Malignaggi returned to his ringside position as commentator for the SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast.

 

“I’m excited to call the fights tonight,” Malignaggi said. “I’m a fan before I’m a fighter. I’m excited to go to work right now.”

 

U uvodnom meču na Showtime boks na sho EXTREME, Philadelphia’s Tevin Farmerosvojio 15th consecutive fight with an impressive 10-round unanimous decision over previously once-beaten lightweight Ivan Redkach, zabio, 99-89, 98-90 dvaput.

 

Fighting on his 26th rođendan, Farmer (22-4-1, 5 Kos) was the more effective fighter from the start. He was able to fight on the inside against the naturally bigger Redkach (19-2-1, 15 Kos), who’s only defeat had come in a 2015 title eliminator against current WBC Lightweight World Champion Dejan Zlaticanin.

 

Farmer, who’s winning streak dates back to a 2012 loss to current 130-pound titlist Jose Pedraza, sletio 42 posto svojih energetskih udaraca u odnosu na samo 19 percent for Redkach, who landed just 16 posto svojih ukupnih udaraca.

 

“I’m proud of my performance tonight,” Farmer said. “I was very confident that I would be victorious as long as I executed the game plan and that’s what I did. I want a world title. I’m going to go back to 130-pounds and I feel like I’m ready for a title shot. If I have to fight an eliminator I will. I won’t back down from any challenge.

 

“I beat him down. I was the more experienced fighter and I came in with more rounds and with better opponents on my resume.”

 

Both fighters were deducted a point, Farmer in the eighth for a low blow and Redkach in the ninth for an intentional head butt.

 

The SHOWTIME EXTREME telecast also featured highlights of WBO Featherweight World Champion Amanda Serrano as she dropped Colombia’s Calixta Silgado twice on her way to a first round stoppage.

 

Serrano (29-1-1, 22 Kos) defended her title in the first women’s world championship bout at Barclays Center and made quick work of the challenger. Serrano swarmed Silgado (14-7-3, 9 Kos) from the start with strong combinations and powerful hooks. Silgado was able to recover from the first knockdown but was quickly smothered by Serrano, who sent her to the canvas and forced referee Benjy Esteves to halt the bout 1:41 into round one.

 

“I just wanted to get in there and show the fans and everybody out there that women can fight,” Said Serrano. “We have talent as well. Nebo je granica. I want more belts. I’m going to drop down to 122-pounds and become a four-division world champion like Miguel Cotto.”

 

Featherweight World Champions Lee Selby and Gary Russell Jr. were interviewed by SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING® host Brian Custer during the SHOWTIME® televizijska emisija. See below for quote excerpts:

 

Lee Selby: “Look, it isn’t my nature to call anyone out. But I know that these guys are looking to fight me, so I will accept the offer with open hands. In the build up to this fight, Leo Santa Cruz says he’ll fight me too. Tako, I accept both challenges.”

 

Gary Russell Jr.: “I want all of the above. I want to address something that that Lee Selby said. He said that no one knows who Gary Russell is. Dobro, everyone knows who the WBC featherweight champ is, and it’s Mr. Gary Russell. We are both men and I expect you to conduct yourself as a man. Don’t use this as an out to try to avoid fighting me.”

 

Lee Selby: “I can clarify. Back home, Carl Frampton is a huge name. A fight between he and I would be bigger, that’s what I was saying.”

 

Gary Russell Jr.: “Look, I like the IBF belt. I want to add it to my collection. And as for Leo Santa Cruz, he wants to avenge the loss I gave him in amateurs. Tako, me and Leo, we can make it happen.”

 

Televizija SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOX ponovno će se emitirati Ponedjeljak, Kolovoz. 1 na 11 poslije podne. I/PT. The SHOWTIME BOXING on SHO EXTREME telecast will re-air on Srijeda, Kolovoz. 3 na 11:05 poslije podne. I/PT.

Evo što su sudionici imali za reći Utorak:
LEO SANTA CRUZ
“My dream is to be the next big thing in boxing. We’re going to work hard every day in the gym, learn from our mistakes and improve so I can be the best fighter out there. With the help of the fans and the media I think I can accomplish that.
“He has great skills, great punches and he moves very well. It’s going to be a tough fight for me but I’m going to work hard to defend my belt.
“I see Frampton as someone trying to come and take away everything I worked hard for. I can’t let that happen. I’m going to do what I have to do to get the win.
“On je vrlo vješt borac. He has great power and I think it’s going to be an exciting fight. These are the kind of guys I want to fight. It gives me even more motivation to get in the gym and train hard.
“I’ve known Mikey Garcia from the amateur days and our families have sparred with each other. I’ve even trained with Robert Garcia before. To see another great Mexican fighter go over to New York is very exciting. I’m very happy for him. He’s a great guy and a great fighter.
“I think Frampton will keep his power up the weight classes. He couldn’t make 122-pounds anymore and he’s said that he will be even stronger this time. That’s good. That’s what I want. I want him to feel good so it’ll be a tough and entertaining fight.
“I can’t let him come over to the U.S. and get this win. We’re going to go out there and see if he can bring the best out of me. I’m going to be one-hundred percent ready.
“I’m comfortable at 126-pounds. I want to get this win against Carl Frampton and then unify against Gary Russell Jr., Lee Selby or any of the champions. When my body is ready we’ll move up in weight to seek another world title.
“When I first started boxing all I ever thought about was being a world champion one time. Then after I got there I started pushing my goals. If I continue to keep learning and improve as a fighter, I could go all the way up to 140-pounds.
“I’m thrilled to be fighting in New York. It’s going to be my first time out there. I’m excited to meet new fans. The people who have wished I would fight in New York will get to see me. There are people that don’t know me and this my opportunity to be impressive and put on a show for them.”
Mikey GARCIA
“I’m a well-rounded fighter. I can adjust to just about any style. I get a lot of diverse sparring so that I can adjust to anything Rojas might bring. Training camp has been going very well and I think it’s going to be a good night for me.
“I’ve seen Rojas before. I saw him when he was champion. He’s a good fighter with a lot of experience. He can definitely box and has a good right hand. He lost his title to a great champion. He’s very skilled and experience.
“Both of us are boxers and we tend to try to work from a distance. This time I may have to look for the fight a bit more and apply some pressure. If he tries to box around, I’ll find him. I think my power will eventually be the difference and I’ll break him down.
“I don’t believe there will be ring rust because I was never really outside of the ring. I’ve been in the gym the whole time, sparring and training. I would spar 10 ili 12 kola, just to do it. Not because I had a fight, but just to keep me active. I know it seems like a long time, but I don’t really see it. I feel like I was gone six months.
“I want to fight at 135 and fight for a title there. I’m going to see how my body feels after this fight, but that’s the plan as of now. We’re not looking past Elio. I definitely want to get back in the ring soon if everything goes right.
“I have no regrets. I’ve got to enjoy myself more than I had in the last 10 godina. When you’re in boxing, it’s a year round sport. You don’t have time to yourself, for your family or friends. You miss out on a lot. I learned a lot in my time away about boxing and more.
“This will end up being about a seven-week training camp, but even prior to that I’ve been staying in the gym. I don’t feel any different. I feel one-hundred percent. My body is well-rested which makes me hungrier and more motivated.
“I’ve fought in New York before and it’s always been a great and very supportive crowd. I was at Barclays Center for the first time on June 25 for Thurman-Porter and it was a great arena. It had great energy and I can’t wait to fight there. I can’t wait to fight at Barclays.
“It’s great to be in the gym with all these different types of fighters that my brother trains. I have a lot of very intense sparring. I’ve gotten a chance to really learn from the different styles and it definitely helps me.”
IVAN REDKACH
“This is an excellent fight for me. I’m closing in to a title shot and I’m going to be ready on Srpanj 30.
“I have a plan for this fight. You’ll see it in the ring. I’m going to make this an exciting fight.
“A title fight is my motivation but my focus in fully on Srpanj 30. Everything I’ve done is to lead up to a world title fight.
“I know that my opponent is slick and very fast. He’s a good boxer but we’ll see what he brings to the ring.
“This is my first camp with Leo Santa Cruz and his team and it’s been going very well. I feel very prepared to fight.”
ANTONIO SANTA CRUZ, Leo’s Brother & Trener
“This camp feels very close to the same as usual. Moj otac (Jose) is usually the one who tells us what to do. I’m in the ring with Leo but he’s still there. He is sick but he is still going to the gym. He wants to be there for Leo.
“Frampton is a good fighter. He’s going to give my brother a good fight. Short guys are tougher for Leo so we’re making sure we have sparring with fighters of all heights. Frampton won’t be hard to get inside but his height could pose a problem.
“It’s a little bit more pressure on me. I’m trying to show my father that I can learn and help Leo be at his best. I think he’s going to have a great night.”
JOSE SANTA CRUZ, Leo’s Father & Trener
“Osjećam se dobro. Right now I’m going to the gym every day. Leo looks good in the ring and is training very well.
“Little by little Antonio is learning and even I’m still learning. We’re both getting better as trainers and that is our goal, to be great. I feel the love from my sons and I love them a lot too. I’m proud of them and I’m proud that they are my sons.
“Leo is very calm. I don’t think Leo is going to be affected by traveling to New York. Even if he doesn’t have the majority of the fans, I don’t think it will affect him.
“You never know how it’s going to go on fight night. You can prepare in the gym, but sometimes, once you’re up in the ring, a fight can get complicated.
“Even if I can’t make it to New York, I’m going to watch the fight. Even if it’s with one eye open, I’m going to watch.”
ROBERT GARCIA, Mikey’s Brother & Trener
“Mikey definitely wants to win a title at 135-pounds. There are some good champions out there but not necessarily a huge name. Eventually Mikey would want to go up to 140-pounds where I believe there are a lot of exciting fights that could be made.
“Elio is a fighter that has been off for a while and he’s a former world champion. He’s also trying to come back and make a statement. We have to be prepared for the opponent to be at the top of his game.
“Now that he’s got a date and with the training and sparring, Mikey has been looking really good. It’s been a while. We might see a little bit of rust, a little bit of adjustment to timing. But the way he’s been in the gym, against top quality fighters, he’s been looking so good that I wouldn’t be surprised if he put on one of his best performances.”

BROOKLYN (Lipanj 28, 2016)—Undefeated former two-division world champion Mikey Garcia will return to the ring after a two-and-a-half-year layoff on Subota, Srpanj 30 on an exciting night of boxing on SHOWTIME a SHOWTIME EXTREME that is one of the strongest cards ever assembled at Barclays Center u Brooklynu.

 

Garcia, who won world titles at featherweight and super featherweight, will fight former world champion Elio Rojas in a 10-round bout in the SHOWTIME PRVENSTVO Boks co-feature of the Leo Santa Cruz vs. Carl Frampton event presented by Premier Boxing Champions (PBC).

 

In the opening bout of the SHOWTIME PRVENSTVO Boks telecast that begins at 9 poslije podne. I/6 poslije podne. PT, once-beaten 154-pound contenders Tony Harrison a Sergey Rabchenko will meet in a 12-round IBF Junior Middleweight Eliminator. Harrison and Rabchenko will square off for the No. 2 mandatory challenger spot to IBF titlist Jermall Charlo, who successfully defended his crown on Svibanj 21, and undefeated contender Julian Williams, who earned the No. 1 mandatory position on Ožujak 5, both on SHOWTIME. Harrison vs. Rabchenko is the sixth matchup in 2016 between top 154-pound fighters, a lineup showcasing three world title fights and three title elimination matches in one of boxing’s deepest divisions.

 

The combined record of the six fighters on the SHOWTIME telecast is an impressive 162-4-1 s 113 miševa.

 

An all-Brooklyn showdown between welterweight technicians Paulie “Magic Man” Malignaggi a Gabriel “Tito” Bracero highlights the undercard action on SHOWTIME BOXING on SHOWTIME EXTREME. The 10-round bout is a matchup between a former two-division world champion, Malignaggi, and a fellow Brooklyn native, Bracero, coming off the biggest win of his career when he knocked out Danny O'Connor u listopadu prošle godine.

 

A 10-round clash between once-beaten lightweight Ivan Redkach and streaking Tevin Farmer, pobjednik 14 straight, will open the SHOWTIME EXTREME telecast live at 7 poslije podne. I/PT.

 

The Srpanj 30 event at Barclays Center comes on the heels of last Saturday’s potential Fight of the Year thriller between Keith Thurman a Shawn Porter, a back-and-forth slugfest that generated the top grossing live gate and second-highest attended boxing event in venue history.

 

“This is the strongest card from top to bottom that I have promoted at Barclays Center,” said DiBella Entertainment President Lou DiBella. “Every single fight is significant and competitive, and this is a great follow up from the tremendous success that boxing had with Thurman-Porter this past weekend.”

 

“This will be our 19th boksačkih natjecanja, but from top to bottom it’s arguably our best card yet,” said Brooklyn Sports & Entertainment CEO Brett Yormark. “We are excited to welcome undefeated Santa Cruz and Frampton to Brooklyn for the first time, a fight that could rival Barclays Center’s epic Thurman-Porter bout for Fight of the Year. It’s also a pleasure to welcome Brooklyn’s own Paulie Malignaggi back to Barclays Center for the fifth time and to host the return of Mikey Garcia after a two and a half year hiatus. Srpanj 30 is going to be another big night for BROOKLYN BOXING.”

 

“We are excited to be part of Mikey Garcia’s return to the ring. Before the layoff, he was a two-division world champion and considered one of the top boxers in the world. We know he is determined to reclaim his place among the elite,", Rekao je Stephen Espinoza, Izvršni dopredsjednik & General Manager, Showtime Sport. “SHOWTIME has distinguished itself by delivering the most compelling matchups and the most important events in boxing all year long. There is no other network as committed to the sport, a Srpanj 30 događaj, from top-to-bottom, is a prime example.”

 

MIKEY GARCIA vs. ELIO ROJAS

“I expect to pick up right where I left off,” Garcia told SHOWTIME Sports reporter Jim Gray last Saturday on CBS. “I was a world champion, I was undefeated, and I still am. I didn’t leave because I was injured. I think I’ll come back even better. I’m hungrier now than I was before.

 

“I just have to get one fight in. This first fight with Elio (Rojas) will be somewhere between 135 a 140 funti, but I want to fight at 135 and win a title there. I want to win a title there and keep going after champion after champion. Now that all that (uncertainty) is behind me I look forward to the next stage of my career. This next stage of my career will be what people remember me for.”

 

“Mikey Garcia is a great fighter,” Rojas said. “I want to thank him for this opportunity. We are both former WBC World Champions and I expect a great fight. Međutim, all of the talk surrounding this fight has been about Mikey’s comeback and his future plans. I am no tune-up. This is also about me coming back and fighting again. He may be looking past me, but I am fully focused on him and securing the victory. I will do whatever I have to do to win, so I can move on and regain my world championship.”

 

Garcia (34-0, 28 Kos), od Ventura, Kalifornija, is 28-years-old and in the prime of his career. Once considered one of the top young boxers pound-for-pound in the world, he will make his first ring appearance since he retained the WBO 130-pound title with a 12-round unanimous decision overJuan Carlos Burgos na siječanj. 25, 2014. Garcia, the brother of renowned trainer Robert Garcia, has been victorious by knockout in 10 od njegova posljednja 12 fights and holds impressive victories overRoman “Rocky” Martinez, Juan Manuel Lopez, Orlando Salido a Bernabe Concepcion.

 

Rojas (24-2, 14 Kos), of San Francisco de Macoris, Dominikanska Republika, won the WBC featherweight world championship in 2009 with a 12-round unanimous decision over defending titleholder Takahiro Ao u Japanu. The 33-year-old successfully defended the title against Guty Espadas Jr. u 2010, before losing the belt via unanimous decision to Jhonny Gonzalez u travnju 2012. Since the loss to Gonzalez, Rojas moved up to lightweight, gdje je poražen Robert Osiobe u kolovozu 2014.

 

TONY HARRISON vs. SERGEY RABCHENKO:

“I’m thrilled to return to the ring on this big stage for my first fight in Brooklyn, and I’m ready to put on a show,” said Harrison. “Fighting for a world title is my dream and I know that I have a challenge in front of me. I’m working hard in camp to get another knockout and to make my mark on the division.”

 

“This is the start of realizing my dream,” Rabchenko said. “America is the Mecca of boxing so it is a huge privilege for me to be asked to fight there. American fans like to see knockouts and I like to knock people out so I think they will like what they see. I think I can build a fan base there. I am hungrier than ever. I have not seen much of Harrison, but I am ready for anyone. People say he is a very good fighter with good power. I’m not worried. I have good power as well and I think I will have too much for him.”

 

Na samo 25-godina-star, Harrison (23-1, 19 Kos) has showed tremendous promise. He manufactured a 10-fight knockout streak from 2013 za 2015 and proved he could recover from a loss when he dominated Cecil McCalla za 10 rounds in October 2015 i prestali Fernando Ratnik in impressive fashion in March.

 

Fighting out of Belaraus, Rabchenko (27-1, 20 Kos) is looking to put himself squarely into world title contention when he makes his U.S. debitirati na Srpanj 30. The 30-year-old is coming off stoppage victories over Walter Calvo u svibnju 2015 and Miguel Aguilar in February.

 

SHOWTIME EXTREME:

 

PAULIE MALIGNAGGI vs. GABRIEL BRACERO:

“I feel truly blessed to have yet another opportunity to fight in Brooklyn,” Malignaggi said. “I have known Tito a long time and I know he always comes to fight. We will give the Brooklyn fans a great appetizer before the terrific main event later that night in Barclays Center.”

 

“I’m looking to make a statement by winning this fight,” said Bracero. “Paulie and I have been friends since the amateurs and I’m thankful to have this opportunity, but he’s had his run. Now it’s time for me to have mine. This fight is going to change my life.”

 

Bivši svjetski prvak u 140 i 147 funti, the 35-year-old Malignaggi (35-7, 7 Kos) will return to the ring to fight at Barclays Center for the fifth time. He has faced a slew of big names throughout his career and has been victorious over the likes of Zab Juda, Vyacheslav Senchenko a Pablo Cesar Cano. Rođen i odrastao u Bensonhurstu četvrti Brooklyn, “The Magic Man” was victorious twice fighting in his birth country of Italy last year after unsuccessfully challenging unbeaten Danny Garcia u kolovozu.

 

Another Brooklyn-native, Bracero (24-2, 5 Kos) comes off of a sensational one-punch knockout of rival Danny O'Connor in their rematch last October. The 35-year-old owns victories over Dmitrij Salita a Pavel Miranda in addition to his first triumph over the previously unbeaten O’Connor in 2011.

 

IVAN REDKACH vs. TEVIN FARMER:

“I am extremely happy to be back in the ring on a big show in New York,” Redkach said. “There are so many Ukrainian fans in New York and I am thrilled to have their support and will put on a great show for them. I want to thank Leo Santa Cruz and his team for having me in their camp as we both prepare ourselves to put on tremendous performances come Srpanj 30."

 

“I couldn’t be more excited about this fight,” Farmer said. “This is my Barclays Center debut and it is going to be a spectacular performance. I have called out anyone and everyone in the 130- pound division to no avail, so now I’m moving up to 135 to take on Redkach, one of the most feared punchers in the division. Redkach is an aggressive guy and I know he is coming to fight, but there is no way I leave that ring without my hand being raised. This is a fight where I can and I will make a major statement. I’m willing to fight whoever they put in front of me to inch closer to a world title opportunity and Srpanj 30 is another step in that direction. I tip my hat off to Redkach for giving me this fight, but this is my time to shine.”

 

Rođen je u Ukrajini, ali borbe iz Los Angelesa, REDK (19-1-1, 15 Kos) began boxing at the age of six and has put together an impressive career since turning pro in 2009. The 30-year-old owns victories over Tony Luis, Sergej Gulyakevich i Yakubu Amidu. Nedavno, Redkach knocked out Erick Daniel Martinez u listopadu 2015 and fought to a draw with Luis Cruz u travnju.

 

Representing the fighting city of Philadelphia, Farmer (24-1-1, 5 Kos) dobio je 14 bouts in a row since losing to unbeaten world champion Jose Pedraza u 2012. The 25-year-old has come on strong in recent years, upsetting previously unbeaten fighters such as Emmanuel Gonzalez, Angel Luna a Camilo Perez. Farmer dominated veteran Gamaliel Diaz in March and will make his Barclays Center debut on Srpanj 30.

Undefeated and number-one ranked Julian “J Stijena” Williams ready for Jermall Charlo next

Ostavite komentar

PHILADELPHIA (SVIBANJ 31, 2016)–Svibnja 21, three of the four world championships in the hot junior middleweight division were contested as Erislandy Lara defended his WBA title with a unanimous decision over Vanes Martirosyan; Jermall Charlo defended his IBF title with a unanimous decision over former champion Austin Trout and Jermell Charlo scored a come-from-behind stoppage over John Jackson to capture the WBC belt.
Sitting ringside was IBF number-one ranked contender, neporažen Julijanski “J Stijena”Williams. Williams was a very interested observer and was interviewed on the SHOWTIME® broadcast with his thoughts on the happenings of the evening.
“Jermell did his thing. I thought he was losing but Jermell has a clutch gene. He comes through in close fights. He knows what it’s like to be in tough. He’s doing well under Derrick James. He looked better on TV than he did live at the fight. He was losing but he was walking Jackson down. The sand was running out of the hour glass for Jackson. Jermell can punch better than his record indicates. And that style would be better for him because people always called him boring but it was nothing boring about the KO,” rekao je Williams.
“Lara did what he always does. He boxed and moved and he won.”

” I honestly didn’t think Trout would last with Jermall. I was surprised at how competitive that fight was. Jermall has every advantage over Trout on paper but fights aren’t won on paper. Trout proved something. I was actually going to congratulate him but I heard him say to Jermall “smack J Rock for me”. I don’t know what’s up with these guys. He had a chance to fight me for a whole year and he asked another man to smack me. But that’s old news Trout is out of the picture.”

With that being, said the undefeated fighter from Philadelphia is focused in bring back the hardware back to the “City of Brotherly Love.”
“My focus is on Jermall Charlo. To će biti velika borba. I think he’s a heck of a fighter. This is legacy defining. This is a real number-one contender against a real champion. This is a real mandatory. This is like Bernard Hopkins having to defend against Jermain Taylor. Or Jermain Taylor having to defend against Kelly Pavlik. Or Felix Trinidad having to fight Oba Carr. This is a real fight and I’m excited. I’m excited to test my skills against one of the best young fighters in the game.
Mada, Williams was ringside, he just wanted to observe and take mental notes of the perspective future opponents.

“I didn’t get in the ring like Charles Hatley did because that’s not my style. Hatley is a talented fighter. I remember him from the amateurs but to each his own. Jermall and Jermell deserve respect and most importantly I know the difference between the two brothers. Hatley got in the ring with Jermall who has to fight me, instead of Jermell who has to fight him. That was Jermall’s moment to shine he had just won a tough fight. Everybody knows he has to fight me. There would be no need for me to get in the ring.”

Even though Williams has been avoided, the powers that be in boxing can not keep Williams from realizing his dreams, and that opportunity will be coming sooner rather than later.

“From my understanding we have to come to an agreement in June. I believe in the IBF. They seem to enforce their mandatory bouts. The IBF did not rank me number-one, not to have me fight for their belt. Jermall said making weight wasn’t that bad. He hired a chef. I know he’s prideful. On je prvak. He feels he’s better than me, I feel I’m better than him. There is only one way to prove it. Let’s fight.”

I can’t get into details but I believe the fight will be in September as the co- main to a BIG card. I’m super excited to finally get this opportunity.

Toma, Djevičanski Otoci (Video istaknuti: http://s.sho.com/1VeFFVq).

 

Lara je u glavnom turniru pobijedila Martirosyana rezultatom 116-111 dva puta i 115-112. Nije bilo nokdauna. Martirosyanu je oduzet bod za niski udarac 11th u revanšu u svibnju 2012 borbu koja je završila tehničkim remijem.

 

Rođeni u razmaku od jedne minute, jednojajčani blizanci proslavili su svoje 26th rođendan prošlog četvrtka, Svibanj 19. Jermall je jednu minutu stariji od Jermella.

 

Jermall Charlo se držao svog plana igre i borio se iza svog udarca, bacanje 292 uboda i povezivanje na an 18 postotni isječak. Bio je to uravnotežen napad oba borca, ali snaga i točnost fizički većeg Charla bila je razlika.

 

“To nije bila borba, bilo je to sjajno iskustvo,” rekao je Charlo nakon svoje druge uspješne obrane naslova. “Želim zahvaliti Bogu što je dopustio meni i mom bratu blizancu da vidimo ovaj dan. Povijest.

 

“Austin je pakleni borac. On je zvijer. Ovo je bio moj prvi put 12, ali nije bilo važno jer sam znao da sam u formi.

 

“Moj plan igre bio je izvršiti udarcem. Znala sam da će me pokušati zaustaviti, ali to se nije dogodilo. Nema šanse da ukrotite lava.

 

“Bilo je dobro jer sam znao da će moj brat obaviti posao. Mi pripadamo ovoj razini. Ovi naslovi su nam potrebni za velike borbe, a mi ćemo zadržati te naslove kako bismo se uspon.

 

"Predomislio sam se — mi ćemo ostati ovdje (na 154). Izrada 154 funti nije bilo tako loše kako su svi to činili.”

 

“Skidam kapu Jermallu Charlu. Vodio je paklenu borbu,“, rekao je Austin Trout. “Osjećao sam se kao da sam učinio dovoljno za pobjedu. Neće mi dati blisku odluku, pa je vrijeme da počnemo izvoditi ove mačke. Ali ne mogu se opravdavati. Odbio sam se, Charlo se borio s guzicom i kapa mu dolje.

 

“Živjet ću da se borim još jedan dan. Vidjet ćeš me natrag. Mi smo ovdje ratnici.''

 

Dvije minute u osmi rundi, Jermell Charlo, prateći 69-64 na zapisnicima troje sudaca, pogodio savršenu kontra desnom rukom Jacksonovu lijevom oku. Dok je Jackson spustio gard kako bi se uvjerio da mu je usnik na mjestu, Jermell se povezao s još dvije desne ruke zbog čega je Jackson pao naprijed u svoj kut. Bez obrane i naizgled na nogama, sudac Tony Weeks odmah je uskočio i zaustavio ga 0:51.

 

“To je povijest,” rekao je Jermell, koji je ušao u meč kao WBC br. 1 natjecatelj i postao 66th ShoBox: Nova generacija borac za osvajanje naslova svjetskog prvaka.

 

"Uspjeli smo. Puno boraca ne izlazi iz Houstona i mi smo to uspjeli. Sljedećeg čekam brata. Boksali smo sve ove godine i to se moralo dogoditi.

 

“Bio sam iza. Boksao je, puno se kretao. To je bilo neočekivano od njega. Mislio sam da će izaći na svađu. Morao sam napraviti prilagodbu i to sam učinio.

 

“Kad je počeo usporavati, Uspio sam ga uhvatiti hicem. Znao sam da se mogao vratiti, da je mogao nastaviti, pa sam ga morao udariti.”

 

Dok su obojica bili selektivni sa svojim udarcima, bacanje samo 427 kombinirani udarci kroz osam i pol rundi, Jermell je bio točniji borac. Sletio je novi WBC prvak 23 posto svojih ukupnih udaraca, uključujući 34 posto njegovih udaraca snage protiv Jacksona.

“Bilo je to putovanje do ovdje,“, rekao je Jackson, WBC-a br. 2 kandidat koji ulazi i sin bivšeg svjetskog prvaka Julian “The Hawk” Jackson.

 

“Osjećam se kao da sam bio ispred i bio sam kratak. Uhvatio me udarcem, a ja sam pokušavala popraviti svoj usnik. Onda me udario i izašao sam. Pogodilo me u oko, ali moj usnik je izlazio. Pokušavala sam ugurati nastavak za usta i on me udario. Znao sam gdje sam bio. To me omamilo, ali nisam bio nokautiran.

 

“To je boks. To je velika borba. Osjećao sam da pobjeđujem u borbi, Uhvatili su me i to je bilo to.

 

“Posvetio sam borbu svom tati i nadam se da ga nisam iznevjerio. Pao sam. Neke dobiješ, a neke izgubiš.”

 

Rekao je stariji Jackson: "Ja sam ponosan. Trebalo nam je puno da stignemo ovako daleko. Znam da je moj narod ponosan. Jaki smo ljudi i vraćamo se.”

 

SHOWTIME’s Steve Farhood pod nazivom Lara vs. Martirosyan revanš "tipična Larina borba".

 

“Kao i obično, Larin stil je izuzetno težak za suce,"Rekao Farhood. “Tako je selektivan sa svojim udarcima, ipak slijeće tako visok postotak njih. I da bude još teže, blokirano je mnogo Martirosyanovih udaraca u tijelo. Suci su se složili oko sedam 12 kola. Očito je bila tijesna borba i ono što je Laru pretjeralo bilo je to 10-8 rezultat u kolu 11.

 

“Imamo koristi od korištenja replaya. Gledajući udarac koji je donio odbitak pri reprizi, Vjerujem da to nije bio nizak udarac.

 

“Lara je učinila ono što Lara radi. Martirosyan se borio koliko je mogao. Razlika je bila u Larinoj točnosti i generalnosti prstena. Mislim da je Martirosyanova konkurentnost učinila da je to dobra borba.”

 

Lara, 33, je napravio svoju četvrtu obranu naslova. "Ovo je normalno,” rekla je Lara koja je sletjela 60 posto od 160 i više udaraca snage. “Ovo je boks, ne bejzbol. Događaju se niski udarci i udarci glavom. Ja sam vrlo inteligentan borac i ni u jednom trenutku nisam osjetio da će ova borba biti izgubljena.

 

“Moja majka i djeca su još uvijek tamo pa bi bila velika privilegija otići se boriti na mojoj rodnoj Kubi. Sve je moguće na ovom svijetu. Nisam mislio da ću biti prvak svijeta i evo me.

 

“Želim reći timu Vanes hvala što ste mi dali revanš. Spreman sam se boriti nikoga. Volio bih se boriti protiv Canela.

 

“Braća Charlo su moji suigrači i to što smo se nas trojica vratili kao prvaci je sjajna stvar.”

 

Martirosyan, agresora u cijelom, osporio odluku.

 

“Proganjao sam ga cijelu noć,"Rekao je. “Dao sam pritisak. Mislio sam da sam učinio dovoljno za pobjedu. To nije bio nizak udarac. Reprize pokazuju da su debla bila visoka.

 

“Nikad se nikoga nisam sagnuo. Nitko se nije htio boriti s Larom. Istupio sam i ponovno se borio s njim. Borit ću se protiv bilo koga.”

 

Neporaženi IBF br. 1 natjecatelj i obvezni izazivač Julian “J Rock” Williams (22-0-1, 14 Kos), bio je intervjuiran između borbi od strane SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING's BrianCuster. Williams, Philadelphia, proziva blizance Charlo.

 

“Ne mogu dobiti borbe koje zaslužujem,“, rekao je Williams. “Ali imam dobar tim. Imam Al Haymona i on mi je dao obaveznog za pobjednika Charlo-Pastrve. Dečki znaju da je to teška svađa ako se umiješaju sa mnom. I znaju 99 posto vremena koje će izgubiti.

 

“Jermall Charlo je neporaženi prvak. Ja sam neporaženi. To je ono što je boks - dvoje mladih, gladni prvaci idu na to u najboljim godinama. Tako, Zanima me borba protiv Jermalla Charla.”

 

Na Charlou koji kaže da mu je dosta čitati vaše tweetove i da bi vas želio ušutkati...

 

“Dobro, ne mora dugo čekati tako da sada nema izbora,“, rekao je Williams. “Ja sam obveznik i ako on pobijedi, idući ćemo se boriti.”
