Mayweather vs. McGregor ** In-Diepte Preview en Analise **

2 Kommentaar

Deur: Tony Penecale

Veg of Farce? Toe Floyd Mayweather Jr. afgetree in 2015 met miljoene dollars in sy sak en 'n onbesmette 49-0 rekord, daar was 'n stortvloed bespiegelings oor of hy ooit na die ring sou terugkeer. ’n Gewilde idee was sy ego, saam met sy flambojante leefstyl, sal nie toelaat dat Mayweather lank wegbly nie. Wanneer een van die jong weltergewig vooruitsigte–moontlik Keith Thurman of Errol Spence–konsensus geword het #1 weltergewig in die wêreld, Mayweather sou jeuk om terug te kom en sy troon terug te eis.

 

Egter, dit het geblyk 'n boks buitestander te wees wat Mayweather terug in die ring getrek het, in die persoon van die brutale en kranige UFC-ster, Conor "The Notorious" McGregor. Bekend vir sy treffende vermoë en vreeslose houding, McGregor het boks se geldkoning uitgeroep en hom teruggejaag met 'n High Noon-kragmeting in Las Vegas.

 

Kan hierdie Mixed Martial Arts-kampioen suksesvol sy boksdebuut maak en een van die beste boksers in die geskiedenis verslaan? Of sal Mayweather bewys dat daar 'n verskil is om 'n voortreflike doelskieter in 'n gevegskunsomgewing te wees as in 'n bokswedstryd? Veg of Farce? Ons sal uitvind in hierdie Las Vegas "Superfight"!

STYLE

 

Mayweather:

'n Suiwer bokser met buitengewone vinnigheid en instinkte wat alles goed doen met 'n arsenaal wat 'n klap insluit, akkurate regterhand, en linkerhaak wat verdubbel en verdriedubbel kan word met geweldige effek. Gebruik fynbewegings om teenstanders te vries en ponsbane oop te maak. Druk sy ken goed agter sy skouer om met stampe te rol. Selfs op die toue, hy is 'n moeilike teiken om 'n stewige hou op te kry. Hy het nie groot slaankrag nie. Die meeste van sy onderbrekingsoorwinnings kom daarvan om sy teenstanders uit te slaan en uit te klas terwyl hy selde skoon uitklophoue behaal het.

 

McGregor:

McGregor boks vanuit 'n suidpoot-houding, lig op sy voete en met behulp van laterale beweging, op soek na openinge vir sy donderende linkerhand. Terwyl hulle onder gemengde gevegskuns reëls meeding, McGregor het dikwels wegskramte en worsteling vermy, eerder om sy spoed en krag vanuit 'n treffende houding te gebruik, dikwels met vernietigende gevolge.

 

STERK

 

Mayweather:

* Ervaring – Boks is sedert sy kinderdae in Mayweather se bloed. Het 'n uitgebreide amateurloopbaan voltooi deur die bronsmedalje in die '96 Olimpiese Spele te wen. Hy het die afgelope tyd suksesvol op kampioenskapsvlak meegeding 19 jaar, alle style in die gesig staar en te verslaan.

 

* Kondisionering – Mayweather is ’n fiksheidsfreak met ’n wonderlike werksetiek wanneer dit by opleiding kom. Min vegters druk hulself soveel as Mayweather in die gimnasium, doen selfs middernagtelike opleidingsessies. Dit is duidelik in die ring wanneer sy stamina hom in die laat rondes dra.

 

* Ring Generaalskap – Mayweather ken elke duim van die ring en hoe om 'n geveg te beheer. Hy weet wanneer om aan te val, wanneer om te boks, wanneer om die hitte te verhoog, en wanneer om te kus. Mayweather besit die ring wanneer hy daar is. Selfs die seldsame kere wanneer hy in gevegte verstom was, hy kon vinnig tot rus kom en die dreigement onderdruk.

 

McGregor:

* Vreesloos – McGregor is ’n baie selfversekerde en braaf vegter. Hy het geen vrees getoon teen sommige gevaarlike MMA-vegters nie en het geen probleme gehad om hulle uit te tart nie, sy hande laat val, en dan sy dapper optrede te ondersteun.

 

* Onortodoks – Nie net is McGregor 'n suidpoot nie, hy is 'n uiters onortodokse suidpoot. Hy kom aggressief op sy tone in en skiet sy slae uit alle hoeke, hoofsaaklik sy handtekening linkerhand. Hy sal dit reguit of in 'n lusvormige manier van 'n afstand af gooi, en selfs in 'n kort kap mode terwyl in naby.

 

* Power – McGregor se treffende vaardighede en krag is in die UFC geprys en hy word wyd erken as een van die top-aanvallers in die wêreld van gemengde gevegskuns. Hy dra donderende krag in sy linkerhand en het uitklophoue in behaal 18 van sy 21 oorwinnings.

 

SWAKHEDE

 

Mayweather:

* Veroudering – Mayweather het dalk 'n onberispelike rekord, maar Father Time is nog nooit verslaan nie. Mayweather was meer platvoet in onlangse gevegte en hy is nou verby 40 jaar oud. Hy was nie so skerp in sy laaste paar wedstryde nie en is tevrede om teenstanders te neutraliseer en uit te wys.

 

* Onaktiwiteit – Dit is Mayweather se eerste geveg in byna twee jaar. Sedert sy oorwinning oor Oscar De la Hoya in Mei 2007, Mayweather het net 'n totaal van geveg 11 keer.

 

* Ponskrag – Die meeste van Mayweather se oorwinnings het gekom van 'n opeenhoping van vuishoue. Die gewone resultaat is dat die skeidsregter of opponerende hoek die geveg stop om verdere straf te voorkom. Nieteenstaande sy plofbare uitklophou van Victor Ortiz, dit is skaars om te sien dat Mayweather 'n wedstryd met een vuishou voltooi, dateer uit sy dae as 'n 130 lb bokser.

 

McGregor:

* Bokservaring – Ten spyte daarvan dat hy in gemengde gevegskuns meegeding het en ’n reputasie as ’n dominante doelskieter gehad het, daar is 'n groot gaping in die tegniek en vaardigheidsvlak van professionele boks, en McGregor is duidelik 'n beginner wanneer dit by tradisionele boks kom.

 

* Maklik om te slaan – Deur sy loopbaan in gemengde gevegskuns, verdediging was nooit McGregor se sterk punt nie en hy het 'n aantal skoon slae in sommige van daardie gevegte geneem. Berigte van sommige van sy sparringsessies het opgeduik wat sê dat McGregor se verdediging 'n aanspreeklikheid kan wees.

 

* Instinkte – McGregor het nie tradisionele boksinstinkte nie weens sy gebrek aan deelname aan die sport. Dinge wat natuurlik vir Mayweather en ander opgeleide boksers kom, sal nie so natuurlik kom nie “Mystic Mac,” en hy sal moet konsentreer en fokus daarop om nie sy bene of elmboë te gebruik soos hy in die gemengde gevegskunswêreld sou doen nie.

 

VORIGE VER

 

Mayweather:

(09-12-15) Mayweather het van sy geskiedkundige oorwinning oor Manny Pacquiao gekom toe hy teen die verlepte Andre Berto afgereken het.. Die geveg was 'n teleurstelling met Mayweather wat maklik na 'n eenparige besluit oorwinning in wat aangekondig is as sy uittrede-wedstryd.

 

McGregor:

Dit is McGregor se professionele boksdebuut.

 

3 Beste vertonings

 

Mayweather:

* Diego Corrales (1/20/01) – Kenners was verskeur oor wie om in hierdie een te kies, met baie wat na Corrales leun om met KO te wen. Mayweather het hom nooit in die geveg toegelaat nie, het hom vyf keer platgeslaan voordat die geveg in die 10de ronde gestaak is.

 

* Arturo Gatti (6/25/05) – Hoewel Mayweather ’n stewige weddery-gunsteling was, baie het verwag dat Gatti dinge vir Mayweather moeilik sou maak. Dit het nooit gebeur nie, want Mayweather het Gatti in die 1ste rondte onderdruk en 'n strawwe loesing toegedien voordat Gatti se hoek die geveg gestop het na ses eensydige rondtes.

 

* Ricky Hatton (12/8/07) – Hatton was onoorwonne toe hy aan die geveg deelgeneem het en het 'n wedstrydplan van konstante druk opgestel om Mayweather uit te dra. Na 'n paar ongemaklike rondtes, Mayweather kon sy reeks vind en oorneem, Hatton twee keer in die 10de ronde te vloer en 'n stilstand afgedwing.

 

McGregor:

* Eddie Alvarez (11/12/16 - UFC 205) – Word beskou as die mees dominante en volledige oorwinning in McGregor se loopbaan. Hy het sy voetwerk gebruik om Alvarez op 'n afstand te hou en takedowns te vermy. McGregor het Alvarez gestraf, hom twee keer vroeg platgeslaan, en hom dan uittart in die 2nd rond met sy hande agter sy rug. Kort daarna, 'n kombinasie van vier vure het Alvarez in 'n nederlaag verpletter.

 

* José Aldo (12/12/15 - UFC 194) – ’n Spoelteller-linkerhand van McGregor was al wat nodig was om Aldo uit te slaan, om hom op sy gesig te laat val en die oorwinning in 'n ongelooflike aan te teken 13 sekondes.

 

* Diego Brandao (07/19/14 - UFC 46) – McGregor het vroeg ’n afslaan behaal en toe sy linkerhand begin land. Vier minute in, McGregor kon die ring afsny en Brandao met 'n linkerhand vloer, dwing a 1st ronde stilstand.

 

 

KEYS oorwinning

 

Mayweather:

* Moenie dat McGregor enige selfvertroue kry nie

 

* Gebruik uitstekende bokservaring om hoeke te skep

 

* Time McGregor jaag en land reguit regterhande

 

McGregor:

* Verander sy aanval na die kop en lyf

* Dwing Mayweather teen die toue en maak die afstand toe

 

* Rof Mayweather op en dwing hom om kalmte te verloor

 

VRAE EN ANTWOORDE

 

* Waarom word dit met streng boksreëls betwis? Eenvoudige antwoord is geld. Om mee te ding deur boksreëls te gebruik, die wedstryd sal onder die Mayweather Promotions "Money Team"-vaandel wees. Die geld van die lewendige hek, advertensies, betaal-per-kyk-inkomste, ens. sal gaan na die vegter se take-home pay. Om te kompeteer onder reëls vir gemengde gevegskuns sal dan onder die UFC-vaandel val waar Dana White sekerlik 'n groot deel van die geld sal hou.

* Sal die 8oz handskoene 'n impak hê? McGregor het aan gemengde gevegskuns deelgeneem met vingerlose 4oz-handskoene. Die oorspronklike plan was om 10oz bokshandskoene te gebruik, maar daar is ooreengekom om eerder 8oz handskoene te gebruik. Dit bevoordeel Mayweather steeds, want hy is gewoond daaraan om swaarder handskoene te gebruik.

 

*Wie het die meeste om te verloor? Mayweather, sonder twyfel. Buite McGregor se span, sy mees lojale aanhangers, en beginnergeveg-aanhangers, meeste kenners verwag 'n oorheersende Mayweather-oorwinning. Die kans word in sy guns in 'n tradisionele bokswedstryd gestapel. As McGregor in 'n kort geveg verloor, dit is 'n morele oorwinning en 'n skewe verlies, al het sy ego gekneus, sou verwag word gegewe hul onderskeie ervaring. As Mayweather verloor of sukkel in 'n afsluiting, omstrede oorwinning, sy nalatenskap sou onherstelbaar aangetas word.

 

* Wat gebeur as McGregor MMA-aanvalle gebruik? Mayweather en sy span is deeglik wanneer hulle 'n gevegskontrak opstel. Sy kontrak toe hy teen Manny Pacquiao geveg het, het gelyk soos 'n Herman Melville-roman. As McGregor enige onwettige martial arts taktiek probeer, hy sal sekerlik 'n groot stuk verbeur, indien nie almal nie, van wat na raming minstens 'n betaaldag van $75 miljoen dollar is.

 

* Sal Mayweather meer aggressief veg? Oor die afgelope dekade, Mayweather het sy bestaan ​​gemaak deur sy verdedigings- en teenslaanvermoëns te gebruik om sy gevaarlike teenstanders te neutraliseer en op punte te wen. Hy lyk skaars soos die briljante vegter wat teenstanders vroeg in sy loopbaan verblind en oorweldig het. Terwyl hy nog vroeg 'n Mayweatheresque verdedigingstrategie sal gebruik, die openings wat McGregor bied en die begeerte om sy teëstander van braggadocios te verneder, sal daartoe lei dat Mayweather meer op sy vuiste sit en soek na kraggeleenthede vir die kop en lyf.

 

* Sal die geveg lelik word? Nie een vegter is bang om die arrogante skurkrol te speel of om die reëls 'n bietjie te buig nie. In sparringsessies, McGregor is gesien hoe hy pakslae na die agterkop kry en stoot. Mayweather is gekritiseer omdat hy Victor Ortiz met 'n vuishou uitgeslaan het toe Ortiz probeer om verskoning vra vir 'n oortreding. Die teenwoordigheid op Mayweather se span van Roger Mayweather en Leonard Ellerbe as brandbare elemente dra by tot die potensiaal vir drama. ’n Lelike geveg wat eindig met enige vegter wat gediskwalifiseer is, is nie ter sprake nie. Skeidsregter Robert Byrd sal sy hande vol hê om die aksie te beheer as foute begin voorkom.

 

* Wat gebeur volgende? As die geveg vermaaklik blyk te wees, naby, of omstrede, 'n rematch is moontlik. As McGregor die ontsteltenis afhaal, Mayweather sal beslis 'n herwedstryd versoek. As die geveg 'n noue Mayweather-oorwinning is, sy reputasie kan genoeg geskaad word dat hy 'n herwedstryd aanvra. As die geveg eindig met 'n oorheersende Mayweather-oorwinning, McGregor kan 'n ryker man en 'n groter crossover-ster teruggaan na die UFC. Mayweather beloof om weer uit te tree, maar waarskynlik net totdat hy weer uitgedaag word vir die volgende ultraryk geveg. Hy het ook te kenne gegee dat hy McGregor in die UFC Octagon kan uitdaag, al het hy op 'n onlangse konferensie aan verslaggewers gesê dit sal sy laaste wees “veg.”

 

PENECALE VOORSPELLING

 

Dit sal 'n hewige en elektriese atmosfeer wees soos die vegters die ring binnegaan, en dit sal opbou na 'n crescendo tydens 'n intense staar af. Soos Robert Byrd deur die instruksies gaan, McGregor sal in Mayweather se gesig inspring en probeer om te begin kapitaliseer op die intimidasiefaktor. Mayweather, normaalweg selfversekerd en ontspanne, sal reageer met 'n ysige glans.

 

McGregor sal uit sy hoek spring vir ronde een, beweeg vorentoe op sy tone en swaai sy arms op 'n onortodokse manier. Mayweather sal aan sy linkerkant beweeg weg van McGregor se kraghand as McGregor die aksie druk en vorentoe beweeg met 'n paar wilde linkerhande. McGregor sal nog 'n wilde links gooi wat te kort skiet en dan probeer om Mayweather in die toue te bult en hom met linkerhande knyp.. Mayweather sal teen die toue beklink en McGregor sal aan die binnekant probeer skeur, gebruik sy skouers as 'n wapen, wat die eerste waarskuwing van Robert Byrd regverdig. Soos die klok lui 'n slordige einde 1st ronde, McGregor sal saam met Mayweather kaak terwyl hulle na hul onderskeie hoeke terugstap.

 

Vir die eerste helfte van die 2nd ronde, die patroon sal voortgaan met Mayweather wat matador speel vir McGregor se bulstormloop en wilde linkerhande. Sowat 'n minuut in die strofe, terwyl McGregor nog een van sy vorderings begin, Mayweather sal na links draai en 'n spoel regterhand land, veroorsaak dat die sweet van McGregor se kop afspuit. Mayweather sal sy voete sit, rol sy skouers, en vuur nog 'n een-twee kombinasie in die middel af, maak 'n steek met sy steek en gooi nog 'n regterhand, wat weer spoel land.

 

Begin in die 3rd ronde, Mayweather sal sy oorheersing begin beweer. McGregor sal begin besef dat die beste boksvermoë in die wêreld van gemengde gevegskuns nie sukses in die bokswêreld waarborg nie. Die vinnigste NFL-lynspeler is steeds uit sy liga wanneer hy teen Usain Bolt gejaag het. Mayweather se natuurlike vermoë en ervaring sal skyn as hy na goeddunke met regte hande begin land, en McGregor sal die effekte wys met swelling en verkleuring onder sy linkeroog.

 

Die ongelykheid tussen talent en ervaring sal duidelik wees soos die wedstryd vorder in die 4ste en 5ste rondes. Mayweather sal gemaklik wees om in die sak te staan ​​en McGregor na willekeur met regte hande te slaan. Terwyl die regterhand sy hou van keuse teen sy suidpoot-teenstander sal wees, Mayweather sal ook voorloop met verskeie linkerboontjies, land sy pakslae uit 'n duiselingwekkende verskeidenheid van hoeke. Die einde van die 5ste rond sal 'n vinnig-vermoeiende McGregor op sy stoel sien sak

 

Die 6ste rondte sal 'n straf saak wees, soortgelyk aan Mayweather s'n 2005 disseksie van Arturo Gatti. Mayweather sal die huis vir sy regterhande gevind het en sal voortgaan om hulle skerp te land. Hy sal ook die steek steek, so wanneer McGregor op die vals byt en wegdraai om sy ken te beskerm, Mayweather sal die pons na die liggaam dryf voordat hy oor die bokant na die kop terugkom. ’n Linkerbo-snit sal McGregor se knieë knyp en nog ’n regterhand by die klok sal hom laat wankel, stuur hom terug na sy hoek.

 

Terwyl McGregor op sy stoel sit, sy linkeroog amper toe geswel, en bloed wat uit sy neus vloei, sy hoek sal besluit om hul vegter van bykomende straf te red en die geveg te stop. Mayweather sal uit sy stoel opstaan ​​en hom verheug oor sy oorwinning.

 

Die wenner deur 6ste ronde TKO is FLOYD “MONEY” MAYWEATHER JR!!!!

“On behalf of Mayweather Promotions we send our prayers and deepest condolences to the Porter family,” Said Leonard Ellerbe, Uitvoerende hoof van Mayweather Promotions. “In boxing we have to deal with curveballs that constantly come at us. Thomas Dulorme has been training hard and is ready to face Yordenis Ugas. Ugas is a tough competitor that shouldn’t be overlooked, and Dulorme is ready. The fight fans are definitely in for an outstanding show between Dulorme and Ugas come Augustus. 26.”
“I have been training for this fight for a several weeks now, I knew at the-time Porter was going to be a tough challenger so I took training camp extremely serious,” Said Dulorme. “Fighting on a card this big, you cannot doubt anyone in front of you. My new opponent doesn’t change much. All I can do is continue to stay focused and listen to my team and bring the best fight I can.”
“It’s an honor to be fighting on one of the biggest boxing cards in history and fighting in the same ring as one of the most famous boxers in the world – Floyd Mayweather,” Ugas said. “This is the type of fight that I’ve been looking forward to having since I came back last year after being off for almost three years. This will be my fifth fight in a year. And this is the second fight that I’ve taken on short notice this year. But it doesn’t bother me because I’m always training. Dulorme is a tremendous fighter. He’s very aggressive and very technical. He’s going to get my very best as I know I will get the very best from him. It’s really an honor to fight a quality opponent on a card like this.”

Representing Puerto Rico, by way of French Guiana, Dulorme last fought in January when he stopped Brian Jones in the sixth-round to pick up his second straight win after the 27-year-old had previously challenged Terrence Crawford for a vacant world title in 2015. Prior to his title opportunity, Dulorme picked up impressive victories over Hank Lundy, Karim Mayfield and DeMarcus Corley. He will look to make a statement on his way to another world title opportunity with a win against Ugas.
Ugas will enter the ring for the third time in six months when he faces Dulorme on Augustus. 26. The 31-year-old Ugas, a bronze medal winner for the Cuban team in the 2008 Beijing Olympics, has been on an impressive four-fight roll that started last year when he scored a decision victory over then unbeaten Jamal James and followed it up by stopping then unbeaten Bryant Perrella in the fourth round. Ugas continued to take down contenders in 2017 as he defeated Levan Ghvamichava by decision on Februarie. 2 before stepping in at the last minute two months later to stop Nelson Lara.

“This isn’t just a fight; this is an event. We both owe the fans and everyone tuning in a lot of excitement. That’s what we’re there to give them.
“I know I’m going to face a warrior. It’s not for me to worry about what he does on a day-to-day basis. I have to worry about what I have to go out there and do. I have to execute the game plan. I’m not going to overlook him. That’s why I’m in here working extremely hard.
“When it’s all said and done it comes down to the two competitors. My dad can give me a brilliant game plan but he can’t get in there and fight for me. Same for Conor and his team. It doesn’t matter who the crowd’s rooting for, it’s two men in there.
“This training camp has been a lot different. I’ve spent some time in Miami and in Los Angeles training. I’ve been pushed really hard by the young guys in camp. I don’t need to post every workout video because I’ve been around this sport a long time and everyone knows what I can do.
“On paper we know he’s taller and has a long reach. He has youth on his side. People say that he has power on his side. I know that ring IQ and experience are in my favor. I have the fight knowledge on my side. We both have advantages.
“I know he’s going to come out and try to switch stances. He’ll come out southpaw then go the other way. But all that does is burn energy. Then I’m going to give him a look and give him some knowledge, and we’ll see what happens.
“Conor feels it’s not going to go past four rounds and I don’t think it’s going the distance. We’re both confident in our skills and we’ll see who gets it done.
“My opponent is always confident, but it’s different being in there with Floyd Mayweather. They realize that this is real. But for me, it’s just another day. That’s the mentality that has allowed me to stay undefeated.
“It’s been great to be in a position as a promoter to give knowledge to young fighters. It’s one of my ultimate goals to take a young fighter and make them a household name. I want to take fighters to the next level.”
GERVONTA DAVIS
“I’m feeling great. Being in the same ring and on the undercard of Floyd’s fight is amazing. I’ve worked hard to get to this point and I’m ready to put on a great show on Augustus 26.
“Training has been sharp. I’ve been stopping a lot of guys in training. I can’t wait to get in the ring and give the fans a big knockout.
“Being on this card has been a big motivation in training. It feels great and I’m truly blessed to be in this position. I think the excitement that this card brings will be great for the sport of boxing. I’m ready to shine.
“I know I have a tough undefeated opponent who’s going to come in and try to take my belt and I have to take care of business. He has some decent power so I think it’s going to be an exciting fight.
“I’ve accomplished a lot at a young age. It’s all because of the hard work that I’ve put in for my entire life. I don’t complain, I just keep working every day.
“I’m ready to take full advantage of this chance I have. It’s just one step on a long road I see to the top of this sport.”
JACK Badou
“Everything is great in training camp. I’ve been in training for about seven weeks getting ready for this matchup. I’m excited and happy to be a part of such a big event.
“I think this weight is going to be better for me. I’m going to have more power. I’ll be more athletic and style-wise I prefer to fight bigger guys. I can use my speed, but I also like to go inside and break my opponent down. It’s harder if I have to chase them, but the big guys are going to be right there.
“Cleverly has a high work rate and he’s very tough. He’s going to come to fight. That’s what we want. It’s a good first fight for me at this weight.
“I’m excited to work hard these next two weeks and get to fight night. He’s been in some good fights but I’m different than anyone he’s faced. I’ll show how my skills translate to light heavyweight.
“It’s really a blessing to be in this position. I’m happy because a lot of other fighters don’t get to be on this stage. I’m so thankful to my whole team. I won’t let the fans down and onAugustus 26, I’m coming to steal the show.
“I’ve done everything right to get to this point. It’s an honor to be in this position. I just have to take care of business.”
ANDREW TABITI
“This is a huge deal to me. Floyd Mayweather is the biggest star in boxing and to be a part of everything that’s going on is a dream come true.
“I was really happy when I found out that I’d be fighting on this card. There aren’t really words for how blessed I am to be in this position.
“Hierdie stryd beteken baie vir my. This is a chance for me to become the American face of cruiserweights just like Steve Cunningham was. I’m taking this very seriously and I have great respect for Steve Cunningham, but this is my time to take it.
“I’m ready to be a fresh face in the cruiserweight division. I’m going to give it everything I have. I’m humbled by this experience and I’m going to take advantage of it.
“I can’t wait to open the show. There’s a little added pressure being at the beginning of the PPV but I’m going to embrace it and put on a great performance.”
LEONARD Ellerbe, Uitvoerende hoof van Mayweather Promotions
“Floyd is a lot wiser now. He’s gotten smarter with age. He’s a young man who has an incredible vision and I have a great deal of respect for everything he’s done.
“The older you get, the harder it is to get things going in training. It’s taken Floyd a while to get in a groove, but he’s in a groove now.
“All of these records being broken are because of Floyd Mayweather. He’s been innovative and he always thinks outside the box. That’s why he’s had such tremendous success.
“We’ve been able to generate a great deal of interest in new avenues and bring Floyd to even more casual fans because of the boxing and MMA worlds colliding. This is going to be one of the biggest nights in sports entertainment history.
“Both guys are looking to knock each other out. I believe Conor McGregor when he says that he’s looking to knock Floyd out in the first four rounds. He hasn’t shown me anything to make me think differently. Floyd usually just goes and does his thing, but with some things that have happened recently, I think Floyd really wants to get him out of there.”

LANCASTER, SOOS. (Junie 12, 2017) – Voormalige wêreldkampioen Brandon Rios (34-3-1, 24 Uitklophoue) returned to the ring with a seventh round TKO of Mexico’s Aaron Herrera (23-7-1, 14 Uitklophoue) in die belangrikste gebeurtenis van Premier Boxing Champions op FS1 en Fox Sports Sondagnight from The Pioneer Event Center in Lancaster, Kalifornië.
“I had that good nervous feeling tonight, like before my pro debut,” Said Rios. “I was a little jittery but it felt good in there.”
In his first fight in 19 maande, Rios showed off his signature exciting style in breaking down the very game Herrera before stopping him late in their welterweight contest. Rios controlled the action from the outset as he showed off his strong inside game while tagging Herrera with hooks and uppercuts.
Herrera received a fair deal of punishment across the early rounds but remained competitive in consistently throwing back against the aggressive Rios, who was able to parry some of Herrera’s shots with effective head movement. Herrera had his best round in the fourth when he changed the tides momentarily by being more active than Rios.
“I’m always ready for whoever they put in front of me,” Said Rios. “He was tough and he was swinging hard. I had to be careful and couldn’t go in there crazy. He caught me sometimes but that’s part of the sport.”
The shift did not last long as Rios ramped the pressure back up and began to slow Herrera down with increased body work. Herrera kept fighting back but was clearly tiring late in the sixth round as Rios teed off on him against the ropes with big power punches.
“Next time I get in there I’ll be better,” Said Rios. “You’ll see more progress each time I get out there. I still have my same style but I’m adding some more athleticism and head movement to it. I felt like I did well in there.”
The attack continued in the seventh round as Rios stalked Herrera towards the ropes before eventually delivering the pinpoint right hook to the body that put Herrera on the mat. Herrera was unable to beat the count and Rios returned to the win column with a stoppage victory2:11 in die ronde.
“This is a new beginning and a new chapter in the book that I’m writing,” Said Rios. “We’re ready to move forward from here. I’m ready for the next challenge.”
The co-main event of the telecast saw unbeaten Mario Barrios (19-0, 11 Uitklophoue) score a sensational knockout of Jose Luis Rodriguez (23-9-1, 13 Uitklophoue) with left hook to the body that ended their super lightweight battle in the seventh round.
“I knew that he was going to fight the whole time,” Said Barrios. “He was going to stay coming in and I had to keep my distance. I stunned him with an overhand and then I found him on the liver.”
Barrios was impressive from the start, using his length to pick off his opponent with powerful uppercuts in the opening minutes of the bout. Despite taking numerous clean power shots from Barrios throughout the battle, Rodriguez never stopped attacking and was able to occasionally frustrate Barrios with his relentless physicality.
The bout was eventually defined by the powerful body shots that Barrios dedicated himself to delivering throughout the fight. The consistent effort clearly slowed Rodriguez, who took more and more clean punches as the fight went on.
Early in round seven Barrios’ attack finally wore Rodriguez down as a series of punches culminating with the left to the body put Rodriguez on the canvas. Referee Zac Young quickly called off the bout 37 seconds into the round to give Barrios his third straight knockout victory.
“I want to fight everyone in the 140-pound weight class,” Said Barrios. “I’m going to take it one fight at a time and work my way up to a world title shot.”
In die opening bout van die beeldsending, stygende vooruitsig Jose Miguel Borrego (12-0,11 Uitklophoue) remained unbeaten with a fourth-round stoppage of Kevin Watts (11-2, 4 Uitklophoue) in their super lightweight matchup.
Watts was the more aggressive fighter in round one, controlling the action with his jab as Borrego switched stances but threw few punches. Watts continued to have success in round two sticking Borrego with power shots while avoiding the returning punches Borrego threw back.
The third round saw Borrego begin to break through the guard of Watts with powerful left hooks, which seemed to slow the movement of the previously once-beaten Watts, who began to stand and exchange more with his opponent. As the action heated up in round four, Borrego connected with a massive left hook that stunned and bloodied Watts’ right eye.

Borrego kept up the attack and eventually sent Watts to the canvas with another left hand over two minutes into the round. While Watts returned to his feet, Borrego quickly cornered him and delivered another flurry that forced referee Jack Reiss to halt the bout 2:42 in die ronde.

Here is what Barrios had to say about training camp, his matchup and more:
On fighting Jose Luis Rodriguez:
“Ongelukkig, in the last twelve months, I’ve had two opponents come in overweight when I was scheduled to fight on national television. I was ready to fight both times but my team advised me to cancel the bouts because the fighters were at least 10 pounds above the contracted weight. Jose Luis Rodriguez is a very tough fighter who went the distant with Felix Verdejo, who many people consider a top prospect. I just hope Rodriguez makes weight and the fight happens because I’m ready to shine.”
On his return to FS1 & FOX Deportes as the co-main event:
“I’m very excited to be returning on FS1 even though I’m not the main-event as I was scheduled to be last month. My management team once again is putting me in a great position on national television. In this fight, I’m the co-main event and I’m eager to showcase my talents at super-lightweight. I’m going to put on a great show for everyone watching.”
On his recent training camp with Virgil Hunter in California…
“Virgil and I are working great together. I feel I’m constantly getting better with Virgil each and every day we are together. He’s a great motivator and I’m pushing myself to become a stronger, faster fighter. I’ve been in camp for the last three months and I’m like a lion ready to come out of his cage.”
On fighting in Lancaster, SOOS…
“I’ve fought several times in California and the fans out here are incredible. This will be my first time fighting in Lancaster and I’m expecting the same lively crowd. The fans are what make this sport go so expect me to come out guns blazing. I’m going to explosive in this fight.”

Here is what Rios and his trainer had to say Woensdag:
BRANDON RIOS
“I’m just ready to get back to the top. I know that I have to climb the ladder and that’s what I’m here for.
“When I said that I was done, I was done. Eventually though I started getting that urge again, to get on that stage and perform on TV. My wife told me that if I wanted to fight again, I had to come back dedicated.
“It’s really cool to be fighting right after the Mexico vs. USA match. I’m a Mexican-American but I live in the United States so it’ll be USA vs. Mexico in the ring as well when I face Herrera.
“I know that I have a very skilled, tough opponent. He’s working with Juan Manuel Marquez and he’s very experienced. He’s faced some really tough opponents. It’s going to be a good fight to get back in the ring with.
“I felt like I needed a new voice in my corner. There’s nothing against (former trainer) Robert Garcia, I respect him and he got me to where I am today, but I felt like I got too used to that situation.
“I told (Rios’ afrigter) Ricky Funez that I wanted to come back and have him train me and thankfully he was excited to work with me. We started working really hard and we took some time to get to know each other more and more.
“I Googled ‘Southern California boxing trainers’ and Ten Goose Boxing and Ricky came up, and I decided to hit him up. So I direct messaged him on Instagram and the rest is history.
“I feel like I’m in really good shape after working with a nutritionist for the first time. My nutritionist is with me 12 hours a day and it’s had me feeling great heading into this fight.
“I’ve always been a brawler, but I’m capable of boxing, especially with my inside game. The way I can deflect punches is a strength.
“I’m just ready to get back to the top. I know that I have to climb the ladder and that’s what I’m here for.”
RICKY FUNEZ, Rios’ Trainer
“Training Brandon was a good challenge for me but he has been disciplined from the very start. I laid it all out for him from the beginning, I just wanted a good response from him and he said he’s going to work hard.
“A lot of people said that he was done, and that motivated me. I’ve seen Joe Goossen bring fighters back like Diego Corrales and he’s my mentor in this sport. I’m working hard to push Brandon and get him to that level.
“Brandon is a stubborn fighter but he really does listen. He has a lot of tools and I think you’ll see that he hasn’t lost anything in that ring Sondag.”
