PHILADELPHIA (Janeiro 19, 2020) – Jeison Rosario conquistou os títulos mundiais Super Welterweight da WBA e IBF com uma paralisação chocante da quinta rodada do favorito da cidade Juliano “J-Rock” Williams Sábado à noite no evento principal da FOX PBC Fight Night e na FOX Deportes do Liacouras Center da Temple University na Filadélfia.

“Assim que entrei no ringue, Eu sabia que ele não poderia me machucar,” disse Rosario. “Eu sabia que meu poder o estava afetando imediatamente. Esta é uma grande vitória para mim e para toda a República Dominicana.”

“Rosario foi o melhor homem esta noite,” disse Williams. “Foi uma ótima volta para casa para meus fãs e eu sinto muito por tê-los decepcionado. O que deu errado esta noite precisa e será consertado. Vamos para uma revanche imediata e esperamos retribuir o favor.”

Em sua primeira luta pelo título mundial, o Rosário da República Dominicana acertou socos poderosos desde o início e abriu um corte com um soco sobre Williams’ olho direito na segunda rodada. Williams estava dando seus próprios socos poderosos, mas não foi capaz de impedir Rosário de avançar.

Assista aos destaques da segunda rodada em que Rosário abre o corte sobre Williams’ olho para cá.

“Estou tão emocionado neste momento agora,” disse Rosario. “Quando perdi minha última luta, disse que nunca vou perder de novo até me tornar campeão do mundo e foi o que aconteceu esta noite. Eu vim preparado. Eu sabia antes da luta que iria vencê-la.”

No quinto round Rosário acertou os socos que acabariam levando ao fim da luta, acertá-lo com as mãos direitas e duras que imediatamente desaceleraram Williams.


“Eu tenho que dar muito crédito à minha equipe,” disse Rosario. “Tive um acampamento de treinamento de 16 semanas e isso me preparou para este. Minha vida mudou para sempre e posso sustentar minha família de uma maneira totalmente nova. Eu percebi que iria vencer, uma vez que me ofereceram a luta. Eu sabia que se eu fizesse o sacrifício, que eu faria o que fiz esta noite. Eu sabia 16 semanas atrás.”

Rosario sentiu seu momento e avançou com grandes socos, enquanto Williams tentava segurar e sobreviver. Eventualmente, o ataque provou ser demais, e o árbitro Benjy Esteves interrompeu a luta 1:37 na rodada. No momento da interrupção, Rosario liderou 39-37 em duas cartas, com a terceira carta marcada 38-38.

“Não fiquei surpreso por ele ser tão bom,” disse Williams. “Eu disse a todos que ele é um verdadeiro lutador. Eu tenho que aceitar isso. O corte turvou minha visão um pouco, mas não foi a razão pela qual perdi. Ele foi o melhor lutador esta noite. Temos uma cláusula de revanche. Eu vou vê-lo novamente em breve. Eu voltarei.”

Veja Rosario finalizar Williams na rodada 5 para cá.

O co-evento principal viu uma estrela em ascensão Chris “Prime Time” Colbert (14-0, 5 KOs) largar o ex-campeão Jezreel Corrales (23-4, 9 KOs) on his way to a unanimous decision victory that earned him the Interim WBA Super Featherweight Title.

“Ele é um grande lutador,” said Colbert. “People don’t realize that, because he had a bad decision against Ladarius Miller. But he’s a great fighter. He’s very awkward. He’s slick and fast. It was hard to catch him because he was running, but he came to fight. I take my hat off to him.

The action began tactically, with Colbert trying to figure out the awkward style of the veteran former champion Corrales. Colbert switched from orthodox to southpaw and was able to control the early action despite a slow pace.

I did my job in there,” said Corrales. “My strategy was to hit and not get hit. I felt like I made him struggle for a lot of the fight. The knockdown wasn’t from being hurt, era o meu equilíbrio. Nossos pés se enrolaram e eu perdi o equilíbrio. Eu vim aqui para ganhar. Nós dois fizemos nosso trabalho, mas os juízes acertaram seu empurrão mais do que seus socos.”

Colbert continuou a variar seu ataque conforme a luta continuava, enquanto Corrales foi capaz de ter algum sucesso nas rodadas intermediárias pousando nas esquerdas retas para contra-atacar seu oponente. Em volta 10 Colbert começou a se afastar, acertando um gancho de esquerda limpo seguido por um gancho de direita no topo da cabeça que colocou Corrales em um joelho.

“Eu tive confiança entrando na luta,” said Colbert. “Eu sabia que iria dominar a luta e contei a vocês tudo isso antes da luta acontecer. Ele estava correndo e eu estava tentando alcançá-lo, então eu disse ao meu canto, vamos ter uma luta de cães. Obtemos 12 rounds. Estou em forma. Entende, Eu não sentei uma rodada. Estou em forma e vim para lutar. Eu não iria embora sem este título.

O jovem de 23 anos, do Brooklyn, pareceu ficar mais forte conforme a luta prosseguia e terminava as rodadas do campeonato de maneira impressionante, cambaleando Corrales nos momentos finais da luta para pontuar a performance. Colbert foi o vencedor em todos os três juízes’ cartões, por dezenas de 117-110 duas vezes e 116-111.

“A estratégia era usar meu jab como eu fiz e tentar acertar meus socos,” said Colbert. “Mas ele é muito estranho e tem uma boa distância. Lentamente, mas decidi parar de boxe, feche a distância e suba nele. Eu sabia que ele não poderia me jogar fora, Eu sou do Brooklyn.”

Na abertura da FOX PBC Fight Night, perspectiva super-meio-médio superior Joey Spencer(10-0, 7 KOs)permaneceu invicto com uma decisão unânime sobre Erik Primavera (13-4-2, 1 KO) after six rounds of action.

Fighting from the southpaw stance, Spring looked to land big overhand lefts but was rarely able to catch up to the speedy 19-year-old Spencer. Spencer dominated the action with his speed and by landing big hooks throughout the action.

I was in there with a cagey, long southpaw,” said Spencer. “Para ser honesto, when a guy is fighting as cagey as he was, it’s really hard for a guy with my style to just pull something out of nothing. He was a real defensive guy.

Spencer was especially effective sneaking a powerful left hook around Spring’s guard. Spring tried to press the action in the later rounds and force a firefight but Spencer remained patient and picked his spots. Late in round six, a left hook from Spencer sent Spring flying into the ropes, before he was saved from the follow up onslaught by the bell.

At the end I really just pressed him, said I’m going to finish strong, and hit him with some good shots,” said Spencer. “If I had done that in the first or second round, I would have ended it early. I’m glad to get the six rounds in. Experience is everything. You’re only as good as your next fight. I’m happy to get in there and get some good experience and I did my thing and got the shutout.

I was waiting too much,” said Spring. “I thought he would come in and engage more and I was looking counter him but he stayed on the outside. I was more impressed by his speed then his power. He’s a talented fighter but I could have been more effective.

After six rounds, all three judges saw the fight for Spencer, by the score of 60-54 três vezes. PBC’s 2019 Prospect of the Year, Spencer will look for another big year in 2020.

I’m going to stay busy this year,” said Spencer. “I’m going to have a four-fight year. This is one of four. We’re looking to bring some excitement and have some fun.

Watch Joey Spencer seal his 10th career win with a powerful combo just before the final bell para cá.

Prior to the main card, FOX PBC Fight Night Prelims on FS1 and FOX Deportes saw Mexico’s Jorge Cota (30-4, 27 KOs) earn a fifth-round stoppage over Thomas “Cornflake” LaManna (28-3-1, 10 KOs) 1:22 into their super welterweight bout, when LaManna’s corner advised the ringside doctor to halt the action.

The action also included sensational 17-year-old prospect Vito Mielnicki Jr. (4-0, 3 KOs) dominar Preston Wilson (6-4-1, 4 KOs) on his way to a unanimous decision by the score of 40-36 three times in their welterweight matchup.The Prelims opener saw undefeated Romuel Cruz (4-0-1, 2 KOs) score a first round stoppage of Julio Garcia(3-4, 2 KOs) 2:56 into their super bantamweight contest.

Julian Williams earned one of 2019’s most thrilling victories in May against Jarrett Hurd, and there’s no better way for him to follow that up than by defending his WBA and IBF titles in front of his hometown fans in Philadelphia,” disse Tom Brown, President of TGB Promotions. “The great fight fans in Philadelphia are in for fireworks because Jeison Rosario hits hard and he comes to pull off the spectacular upset, and he only needs one punch to do so. Combined with the addition of one of boxing’s best young stars in Chris Colbert in his toughest test to date against Jezreel Corrales, FOX PBC Fight Night will be must watch from start to finish on January 18 at Liacouras Center.

Philadelphia’s Williams (27-1-1, 16 KOs) captured his world titles in a FOX main event in May when he upset Jarrett Hurd’s homecoming defense in a fight that is a frontrunner for 2019 Luta do Ano. Williams took full advantage of his second title opportunity with a spirited performance and an impressive game plan that negated the hard-charging and physically bigger Hurd.

The 29-year-old will now headline in his hometown, marking the first time he’s fought in Philadelphia since a 2011 victory over Eberto Mendoza. Williams earned his title opportunity by winning four-straight fights after a defeat to Jermall Charlo in 2016, including wins over former champion Ishe Smith and Nathaniel Gallimore.

This is going to be great having a homecoming fight back in Philadelphia,” disse Williams. “I’m excited for the crowd that’ll be at the Liacouras Center and to be back fighting on FOX. I haven’t fought in Philadelphia since 2011, so I can’t wait to get back in the ring in front of all my people. Rosario is a good fighter and I’m very familiar with him. I know he packs a solid punch and that he’s been on a tear ever since his lone loss to Nathaniel Gallimore. So he’ll be a stiff test for me, but I’m prepared to win. Most of all, I’m just excited to defend my titles and as a unified champion in front of my hometown crowd.

Born in the Dominican Republic and now fighting out of Miami, Rosário (19-1-1, 13 KOs) will take an eight-fight unbeaten streak into his first world title fight on January 18. The 24-year-old has taken down a slew of contenders and rising prospects including Jamontay Clark, Justin DeLoach and Mark Anthony Hernandez, all of whom were either stopped or knocked down against Rosario. Mais recentemente, Rosario won a decision over veteran contender Jorge Cota in April.

I’m very thankful and excited for this opportunity,” disse Rosario. “I’m going to take advantage of it. I plan to bring these titles back to the Dominican Republic by knockout, but if I have to go 12 rounds, Estou pronto. I learned a lot from my first defeat, and it will never happen again. I also want to thank PBC, my promoter Sampson Boxing and my manager Caesar Mercedes for putting in this position. I can’t wait to make the most of it.

One of boxing’s top rising prospects, Colbert (13-0, 5 KOs) showed off his emerging power with asensational one punch knockout of Miguel Beltran Jr. in the first round of his most recent fight in September on FS1. The 23-year-old from Brooklyn, New York had an impressive amateur career and has already taken down three unbeaten fighters in his short pro career. He will look to kick off a big 2020 em janeiro 18 after earning four wins in 2019.

This is the stage that I’ve been waiting for,” said Colbert. “My last fight was the co-main event on FS1 and now we’re moving up to FOX. It’s time to show out! I’m going to show the world what the hype behind me is all about and prove that I’m a soon-to-be champion of the world. All I know about Corrales is that he’s a former champion who’s going to bring his A-game, but I’m looking to get him out of there. I’m excited to be back in Philly and I’m definitely going to have my crew and fans coming down from New York to show support.

The 28-year-old Corrales (23-3, 9 KOs) will look to rebound after a narrow split-decision defeat to Ladarius Miller in July. Fighting out of San Miguelito, Panamá, Corrales won a super featherweight title in 2016 when he went to Japan and knocked out Takashi Uchiyama before winning a decision in their rematch. He also owns victories over current 130-pound champion Rene Alvarado and Robinson Castellanos.

Colbert is a good fighter but he’s not ready for what I can do in the ring,” said Corrales. “I’m going to show that I’m still one of the best in the division. This is a great opportunity to prove that. I’ve been training hard to be the best Jezreel Corrales. Thank you to my whole team for helping me get this fight. You’re not going to want to miss my performance on January 18.

“Sábado, Julho 27 is going to be something special for the city of Baltimore,” disse Leonard Ellerbe, CEO de Promoções Mayweather. “While we know what the main event brings, both bouts leading up to it have high stakes written all over them as well. Any time you put former world champions and young hungry prospects in the ring, you know these fighters will be looking to get the win and ultimately put themselves in position for a shot at a title. I’m anticipating non-stop action in these bouts from the first bell to the end.

Os ingressos para o evento, which is promoted by Mayweather Promotions and TGB Promotions in association with GTD Promotions, are on sale now and can be purchased at Ticketmaster.com or at the Royal Farms Box Office Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. ET para 5 p.m. E.

A former titleholder at 126 e 130 libras, Gamboa (29-2, 17 KOs) has won his last three fights, including a decision over former world champion Jason Sosa. His last time out, he dropped and defeated Miguel Beltran Jr. por decisão unânime. An Olympic gold medalist for his native Cuba, Gamboa fights out of Miami and will look to get another world title shot with a victory on July 27.

I’m in a great position in my career and I’m very happy to be back on this big stage again,” said Gamboa. “Rocky Martinez is a very tough and formidable opponent and we will make this a great fight for the fans. I know that I will make it past this challenge and on to more marquee opportunities. I’m looking at facing Gervonta Davis and becoming world champion again.

Always in exciting and memorable fights, Martinez (30-3-3, 18 KOs) returned to the ring in March by knocking out William Gonzalez. Fighting out of Vega Baja, Puerto Rico, Martinez is a three-time 130-pound champion who has faced elite fighters such as Mikey Garcia and Vasiliy Lomachenko throughout a career that has also seen him defeat the likes of Orlando Salido and Diego Magdaleno.

I’m happy for this opportunity and to have this chance to be near a world title fight again,” , disse Martinez. “I’m training to win against a good fighter in Yuriorkis Gamboa. It’s a fight that will define my future and I am fully prepared to become world champion again, and this time in another weight division.

The 25-year-old Miller (19-1, 6 KOs) ganhou 10 lutas seguidas, including a victory over current world champion Jamel Herring, as he looks to earn a world title fight. Originally from Memphis and now living in Las Vegas, Miller began 2019 with a first-round knockout over Daulis Prescott in February and now has his sights set on earning a world title fight.

I’m coming to make a statement on July 27,” disse Miller. “That’s the mindset I’ve been training for. I’m facing a former world champion and a win can solidify my name in the 135-pound division. I’ve been working hard and I know that Corrales won’t bring anything that I’m not prepared for. I’m excited to have this opportunity, take advantage of it and get one step closer to a world championship.

Representing his native Panamá, Corrales(23-2, 9 KOs) won a 130-pound world title by knocking out Takashi Uchiyama in Japan in 2016, before defeating him by decision in the rematch. The 27-year-old returned to the ring in April to knock out Onalvi Sierra in two rounds.

I’m very excited to have this opportunity and grateful that I have another chance to fight at the highest level,” said Corrales. “Miller is a very skillful boxer and I respect his abilities. I’m going to test him and see if he can fight off of his back foot. I’m going to prepare so that I have all the tools to get the victory on July 27.
