QUÉBEC (Décembre 1, 2018) – Adonis Stevenson’s five-and-a-half-year reign as the WBC Light Heavyweight Champion is over. Oleksandr Gvozdyk dethroned boxing’s longest reigning champion with a devastating 11e round knockout Saturday in Quebec City in a BOXE SHOWTIME: ÉDITION SPÉCIALE telecast that immediately preceded the Deontay Wilder vs. Tyson Fury SHOWTIME PPV.
Gvozdyk (16-0, 13 KOs) used a powerful multi-punch combination in the penultimate round to put the back-and-forth bout out of question. The former Olympic bronze medalist and amateur teammate of fellow Ukrainians Vasyl Lomachenko and Oleksandr Usyk was impressive throughout the entire fight. He executed trainer Teddy Atlas’ game plan to perfection and was the busier of the two fighters. Stevenson (29-2-1, 24 KOs), who was making his 10e défense de titre, was able to land his signature left hand on several occasions, most notably in the tenth round, but never did enough to truly trouble his opponent.
“This win means everything to me. I’ve trained my whole life for this and tonight all of the hard work was worth it,” said Gvozdyk, who was the mandatory challenger for Stevenson. “Having Teddy [Atlas] in my corner was a huge help. He knew exactly what to say to me. We trained so well for this fight and I knew I was going to get the knockout.
“Adonis was a great champion but it’s my time now. He got me with a good shot in the 10e round but I handled it and finished him. Maintenant, I just want to rest before I discuss my next step. I definitely want to stay at 175 livres. "
Stevenson was transported to a local hospital as precautionary measure and was unavailable for comment following the fight.
Saturday’s one-fight telecast from Quebec City will replay on Monday, Décembre 3 à 10 p.m. ET / PT sur Showtime EXTREME et sera disponible sur SHOWTIME ANYTIME® et SHOWTIME sur DEMANDE®.

PT and also features unified 154-pound world champion Jarrett Hurd returning to take on Jason Welborn, Cuban heavyweight slugger Luis Ortiz facing-off against Travis Kauffman and rising heavyweight Joe Joyce combattre Hanks Joe.
Here is what Stevenson, Gvozdyk and their respective trainers had to say Thursday at Chateau Bonne Entente in Quebec City:
Adonis Stevenson:
“Saturday is a big fight. I’m not underestimating Gvozdyk. I know he’s a good fighter and he’s hungry. He’s trained very hard to get my title. But everybody who comes to my home in Canada always wants my title, but it’s never happened and it’s not going to happen now.
“I’m looking for the knockout. That’s just my mentality and the way that I train. Sucre [Hill Steward] trains me to think that way but I can also go 12 tours, ce n'est pas un problème. I know that if he makes a mistake, I’m going to catch him. He only has to slip up once in 12 tours. One mistake, one punch. That’s all it’s going to take. Je suis prêt. I know I can punch and it’s 12 tours. I just need one punch. Just one. I’m going to catch him and the night will be over.
“I’ve been pushing myself in training and I’m going to put on another great performance come Saturday and will defend my title once again. In the words of my old trainer, Emanuel Steward, ‘knockouts sell’ and that’s what I’m going for in this fight. I know I’m facing a good boxer who’s coming in very determined. He’ll be ready, but it won’t be enough. Superman is in the building!"
OLEKSANDR GVOZDYK:
“I’m glad to finally be here. Je suis très excité. I want to thank Top Rank and GYM Promotions for finally making this happen. I respect Adonis Stevenson as a fighter, c'est un grand champion. But I am ready to accept this challenge and on Saturday night there will be a new champion.
“I have one of the greatest trainers in the history of boxing so I’m very confident. We have a good strategy. We had an excellent training camp and I’m ready. Adonis is a great fighter. He’s a dangerous southpaw and this is a real step-up for me but it’s my time.
“People always ask about Stevenson’s age but George Foreman and Bernard Hopkins performed at a high level when they were 50-years-old. It really just depends on how you maintain your body, your living conditions, how you eat and how you train.
“I’m not worried about what the bookmakers say. It doesn’t mean anything that they think I am the favorite. I try to stay focused on the things that I need to be focused on, not what the bookmakers think. The further this fight goes, the better my chances are. My height, my movement and my patience will win me this fight.”
SUGAR HILL STEWARD, STEVENSON’S TRAINER
“I’m happy to be here once again. This is like a second home for Adonis. This fight is just going to be regular Adonis. Adonis wants to get a knockout. I love KO. This is how we train for every fight. It’s no disrespect to any fighter, but that’s just the mentality that we have. Adonis and I don’t believe in leaving it in the hands of the judges and that’s been working so far. We will continue to do what we’ve been doing.”
“Adonis has been training his whole life for something like this. This is a big world championship fight against a former Olympian. Welcome to big time boxing, this is what it’s all about. Viens décembre 1, Adonis Stevenson is going to get another knockout.”
TEDDY ATLAS, GVOZDYK’S TRAINER
“We knew that this would be a very difficult fight but what we didn’t know was how difficult it would be to get here. That part of the fight is over, thankfully. We spent eight weeks in California preparing for this bout. Preparing for a tremendous champion. I don’t have to speak about how long he’s been a champion, his reign, his experience, how talented and dangerous he is as a puncher. I believe he’s the best or second-best puncher in boxing today. It’s either him or [Deontay] Wilder, whatever you choose.
“Stevenson has all of the qualities a great fighter needs. He has a great heart, he’s gotten off the canvas and showed tremendous heart late in the Badou Jack fight. This is quite a task that’s in front of us. We understand that. The good news is that we know exactly what we’re facing and we’ve prepared the last eight weeks for that. We have not overlooked anything. I have no doubt that although we have a very steep challenge in front of us, that on Saturday night we will have a new Light Heavyweight Champion of the World.”

Adonis Stevenson will make the 10th defense of his WBC Light Heavyweight World Championship against undefeated, mandatory challenger Oleksandr Gvozdyk to start the action live from Videotron Centre in Quebec City, Canada. The two-fight telecast presented by Premier Boxing Champions continues live from Los Angeles, where Julio Cesar Chavez, Jr. will take on Alfredo Angulo in a 10-round super middleweight clash at STAPLES Center.

The December 1 SHOWTIME PPV and COUNTDOWN LIVE presentations feature two of the most feared knockout punchers in the sport. Avec 39 KOs en 40 combats professionnels, Wilder’s right hand is widely regarded as the biggest weapon in boxing. The southpaw Stevenson’s left has led to knockouts in six of his nine title defenses. En décembre 1, the two power-punchers will take on top-rated, undefeated opponents as they make the 10th and eighth defenses of their respective WBC titles.
Stevenson (29-1-1, 24 KOs) is boxing’s longest reigning world champion, having won the WBC 175-pound title in 2013. The Montreal-based southpaw will face his WBC-mandated challenger in Gvozdyk (15-0, 12 KOs), a Ukrainian with 12 KO dans son 15 professional fights since a standout amateur career that included a bronze medal at the 2012 Jeux olympiques.
In Gvozdyk, Stevenson will face his second consensus top-10 light heavyweight of 2018, following his Fight of the Year candidate draw with Badou Jack in May on SHOWTIME. Gvozdyk, an amateur teammate of fellow Ukrainians Vasyl Lomachenko and Oleksandr Usyk, earned the mandatory status with a near-shutout decision over Mehdi Amar in March.
“I’ve been pushing myself in training to be ready to put on a great performance December 1 and defend my title once again,” Ledit Stevenson. “My old trainer, the late great Emanuel Steward, used to tell me that ‘knockouts sell’ and that’s what I’m going for in this fight. I know I’m facing a good boxer who’s coming in very determined. He’ll be ready, but it won’t be enough. It’s going to be show time on SHOWTIME and another victory for ‘Superman’.”
“I have been waiting for this title shot for a very long time, and I will take full advantage of the opportunity,” said Gvodzyk. “It doesn’t matter where we fight. I am fully prepared to become the new WBC light heavyweight champion. Canada, 'Le clou’ is coming to put on a show!”
Chavez, Jr. (50-3-1, 32 KOs) is the son of Mexican boxing legend and Hall of Famer Julio Cesar Chavez, Sr. The 32-year-old from Culiacan, Sinaloa, Mexico ripped off 46 straight victories to start his career using a gritty boxing style that denoted his toughness in the ring. Chavez is seeking to rebound from a unanimous decision loss to middleweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez on May 6, 2017.
The 36-year-old Angulo (24-7, 20 KOs) is a tough brawler who has faced some of the best boxers in the sport. Angulo, who lives in Coachella, California but was born in Mexicali, Basse-Californie, Mexique, is coming off a hard-fought split decision loss to former world champion Sergio Mora in April.
“I am excited to be back on December 1 to perform for the great Mexican fans in Los Angeles,” said Chavez Jr. “At my weight I know I can beat anyone. I am focused and feel strong. Angulo will be first, but then I will pursue a belt at 168. I’m putting the division on notice. Chavez is back.”
“I have been training very hard in anticipation of this fight and this is the best I have felt in a long time,” Saïd Angulo. “I am looking forward to defeating Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. and getting a title opportunity in the near future. I’m thankful for everyone who has supported me and I promise to surprise a lot of people on December 1.”

STEP, TEXAS (Juillet 18, 2015) - Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. gagné une décision unanime (97-92, 98-91, 96-93) sur Marcos Reyes dans l'événement principal de Showtime Championship Boxing Samedi devant 9,245 au Centre Don Haskins à El Paso, Texas.
Reyes was the more active fighter – he doubled Chavez’s output – but simply couldn’t hurt his larger opponent. Following a loss at light heavyweight last April, Chavez a décidé de tenter de faire campagne au super-moyens.
Chavez (49-2-1, 32 KOs), qui se battait pour la première fois avec l'entraîneur Robert Garcia, semblait être en mesure d'atterrir ses coups en puissance à volonté, however he would pick his spots and had long bouts of inactivity. Although he was working with a new trainer, Chavez a continué à raser avant et mené une lutte très similaire, comme il l'a fait contre Andrezj Fonfara en Avril, cette fois contre un adversaire plus petit.
“I won. This is big for me and Robert,” Chavez said. “I can do it better, but I won and that is the important thing. I’m going to fight at 168 livres. Little by little, I’m going to get down in weight. We know we’re doing much better work in the gym.
“In the third round I hurt my left hand. I think it’s broken, Je ne sais pas. I’ll see the doctor. With all respect to Reyes, si je ne l'avais pas mal à ma main, je l'aurais assommé.
“I connected on the best punches to the chin and the body. Je lui ai fait mal, mais je ne pouvais pas le finir parce que je me suis blessé la main. Il jeta un grand nombre de coups de poing, mais a manqué beaucoup. Il ne m'a jamais blessé. Je sentais que je l'ai blessé chaque fois que je suis tombé ".
Après le combat, Reyes (33-3, 24 KOs) prêché son cas à Showtime journaliste Jim Gray et souligné la disparité de poids.
«Je sens que je gagné le combat. Je lui ai montré comment je Box,"Reyes a déclaré. «Je faisais le poids au 168 et il n'a pas fait le poids. Il est comme un poids lourd légers lutte contre un poids moyen.
«Je suis contre toute attente - l'arbitre, le poids, tout. Je pense que je gagné le combat. Il est OK - je l'ai fait de mon mieux. "
Dans la co-métrage, McJoe Arroyo a remporté une décision technique sur Arthur Villanueva de gagner le Championnat du Monde IBF junior coq vacant après le combat a été arrêté à 2:10 dans le 10e tour en raison d'une profonde entaille sur l'œil droit de Villanueva. La lutte est allé à des tableaux de bord des juges et Villanueva était en avance 97-92, 98-91 après que les juges ont marqué le 10e.
Le Rica Arroyo Puerto (17-0, 8 KOs) est devenu le troisième combattant de l'île à remporter un titre de 115 livres.
L'affrontement gaucher-droitier était parfois très technique et faute rempli. Arbitre Rafael Ramos déduit un point contre Villanueva (27-1, 14 KOs) pour conduire avec sa tête dans la sixième. Dans un affrontement différent dans la sixième, une entaille profonde ouvert sur l'œil droit de Villanueva qui a finalement conduit à l'arrêt. Ramos a statué que l'affrontement qui a ouvert la coupe était involontaire.
Dr. Brian Août inspecté la mi-chemin de coupe à travers le septième round et de nouveau après la huitième. Ramos nouveau panneau pour signaler Août pour inspecter la coupe dans le 10e et a jugé qu'il était trop profonde pour continuer. Dans une interview avec Jim Gray, Août a déclaré qu'il a arrêté le combat dans le meilleur intérêt du combattant, mais que Villanueva a affirmé qu'il avait des pas de problèmes de vue.
"Quand il entrait, il entrait bas. Il a été détonnant têtes beaucoup,"Arroyo a déclaré. "Avant le combat, Je savais qu'il était un combattant résistant. Tous les combattants philippins viennent à se battre. Je savais que je devais être prêt pour 12 tours, la boxe ou des bagarres. Ce fut un combat concurrentiel mais nous avons travaillé plus fort à chaque tour ".
Lorsqu'on lui a demandé par Gray si il était difficile de trouver son rythme, Arroyo a répondu, "Voilà une chose normale quand un gaucher bat un droitier. Nous étions tous les deux essayons d'être habile et intelligent. That happens when two boxers with the same style fight.”
Villanueva était en désaccord avec l'arrêt et a appelé à une revanche immédiate.
"Ce fut un combat rude et très difficile pour moi après le coup de boule,” Villanueva said. «Je pensais avoir gagné le combat. I didn’t want them to stop the fight because it was just getting into the flow. I’m disappointed with the stoppage. Je sais que je peux le battre et je veux une revanche immédiate ».
Dans le combat d'ouverture de la soirée, invaincu 140 livres prétendante assommé Fernando Angulo avec un droit tonitruant pour gagner un coup obligatoire au vainqueur de l'épreuve de force de chute prévu entre Viktor Postol et Lucas Matthysse pour le Championnat du Monde Super WBC vacant léger.
Il semblait être un combat difficile pour Imam (18-0, 15 KOs), mais il était toujours en contrôle et suprêmement précise, atterrissage 54 pour cent de ses coups de puissance comparativement à seulement 17 pour Angulo (28-10, 16 KOs). Imam ended the bout in brilliant fashion with a powerful right to Angulo’s ear, forçant son adversaire à tomber face-avant à la toile et l'arbitre d'arrêter instantanément le concours à :56.
“I take my hat off. He’s a good opponent,” Imam said. “I just hit him with a big shot on his ear and he was done.
“These guys get the belts and just hold it. I’m going to get the belt and hold it with pride.”
Promoteur de l'Imam dit et Hall of Famer Don King, «Ce fut une excellente performance - exactement ce que je pensais et plus. You should never underestimate but pontificate when it comes to the ‘Young Master.’ We will take the belts and anyone that comes in front of us.”
