What the fighters, trainers and executives said Dijous:

 

JULIOL CESAR CHAVEZ JR., L'ex Campió del Món

I had a great training camp. I feel better than ever. I am ready for the fight.

 

I know that this is a new weight class for me. I realize that Fonfara is very tough and bigger than me, but I am up for the challenge.

 

I have worked on my boxing during my one year off, and I am very excited and motivated to get back in the ring.

 

I have worked so hard for this fight because I am fighting in a new weight class. I must punch harder, so I have focused on getting stronger during this training camp.

 

I have a great chin, I know how to take punches and my conditioning is great. A lot of fighters can take a punch, but I can take multiple punches and not be hurt.

 

I think that Andrzej Fonfara is one of the best fighters in the light heavyweight division. Inside of boxing, everyone knows who Fonfara is. He knocked down one of the best boxers in the world in Adonis Stevenson.

 

Fonfara is disciplined in the ring, but he doesn’t vary his punches.

 

I understand that my dad didn’t want me to take this fight. I had bigger names I could’ve fought, but I think that Fonfara is a great challenge for me and I like the challenge.

 

I would like to thank SHOWTIME for making this fight happen.

 

Andrzej Fonfara, World Title Challenger

I’m prepared very well and I’m ready for this fight. It’s been a great camp like always. I train hard for each fight. I’m a tough boxer who is feeling great. The weight is good and everything is perfect.

 

I must put everything into Dissabte night and I will win the fight.

 

I must look even better than I did against Stevenson. Everyone said I looked good, but I lost the fight. I didn’t want congratulations because I did not win the fight. But this time I will win the fight. I’m ready for a decision or for a knockout.

 

I’m ready with a couple of plans. I don’t want to run around the ring, I want to fight tough. I’m going to use my jab and my right hand, which is my best punch.

 

I’m not worried about what his father said about not fighting me. Chávez Jr. wants to fight and I will show him that his father was right.

 

It doesn’t matter how I win, I want to win this fight and get my rematch with Adonis Stevenson.

 

“Chávez Jr. és un gran lluitador. He uses a lot of combinations and has a powerful punch that I must be ready for. I want to show the whole world how good I am when I win this fight en dissabte.

 

If I get the chance, Vaig a noquejar. It’s boxing so you never know what will happen. I want to box round-by-round and win this fight.

 

I lost the fight with Stevenson but I showed that I was a good boxer. I’m a much smarter fighter now because of that experience. That was a fight at the top championship level.

 

It doesn’t matter what Chavez Jr. says at a press conference, we’ll be in the ring Dissabteand everything will happen there.

 

Fan’s can expect heavy punches, knockdowns and a great fight.

 

AMIR AMOR, El invicte superlleuger Contender

I’m confident going into this fight because of how I train. I have put my heart and soul into this sport since I moved to Florida three years ago. I left everything behind to better myself.

 

I’m going to stay smart and composed in there and do everything I can to get the win.

 

I don’t feel like I need the knockout to come away with a successful fight. Però, you better believe that if there is an opportunity to knock him out, then I will take advantage of it.

 

“En 2015, Vull arribar a ser un campió del món. This is my breakout year. A lot of people have been buzzing about me. I want to become the WBC world champion, that’s what I’m heading for.

 

“Sé que és [Castell] a good opponent, he’s got a great resume, and he’s coming to fight. He has a great record, so that alone shows what he’s capable of. Tal Com Dissabte night may the better man win.

 

I’ve boxed styles like [la seva] plenty of times, but you never know, he could come out different Dissabtenit.

 

I’m ready to put on a great show for the SHOWTIME audience.

 

WALTER CASTELL, Superlleuger Contender

I’m coming here to fight. I can tell you one thing, Amir Imam made a big mistake by taking this fight.

 

I’ve fought a lot of tough fighters; my two losses were by decisions where I feel I was robbed. I’ve fought better fighters than Amir has.

 

“Tal Com Dissabte, I’m going to announce to the whole world that Walter Castillo is here to stay and he’s going to be a world champion.

JULIO CESAR CHAVEZ SR.

Being in Los Angeles is like being in Mexico for me; I have had many great memories. I became the world champion for this first time here and my son also became the world champion for the first time here, massa.

 

Julio definitely has a very difficult fight ahead of him.

 

If I was Julio’s manager, I wouldn’t have taken this fight. Fonfara is a difficult and tough fighter.

 

My son wants to fight fighters of quality and wants credibility in boxing.

 

Julio has worked and trained very hard for this fight .He has the capability to win and we expect that it will go very well.

 

JOE GOOSSEN, Chávez’ Entrenador

Julio has a window here the next five, six, seven years that he can capitalize on.

 

I think he’s left the childish stuff behind, and we’re all guilty of being childish.

 

I think that Julio has surprised his father with his determination heading into this fight.

He’s got a left hook to the liver that just sends a shock through your body.

 

He’s not soft. He’s a real fighter. I have been around enough fighters to know that he’s a real fighter. Nombre un, he has the never-say- die attitude in there.

 

We’re up against a very well-schooled, blue collar, workmanlike fighter in Fonfara.

 

He is an athletic, improvisational fighter, in that you don’t know where everything’s coming from.

 

I’ve watched a lot of Fonfara tape, and he pretty much repeats what he does, but he repeats it well.

 

This is going to be a battle. You’ve got two contrasting styles and personalities.

 

Julio has 51 fights under his belt. He’s no rookie and he comes from a great bloodline. (In the short time I’ve been with him, it has been) more of an association than a dictatorial effort between the two of us.

 

Based on former camps, he’s never really extracted himself from comfortable surroundings and put himself in a position where he is completely isolated like he was in Lake Tahoe.

 

SAM COLONNA, Fonfara’s Trainer

Fonfara could turn it up whenever. He could be down on the scorecards and one punch he throws could change someone’s world. He’s proven in the past that he has power in both hands.

 

The styles in this fight are perfect for each other. When people ask about the fight I say it could go either way, it depends on who catches the other first.

 

I’m looking for Fonfara to dominate, but Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. is a warrior, he comes to fight, he knows how to go to the body like his father used to, so we’ve been working on all of these strategies.

 

A knockout win would be a dream come true to me. That’s what I’ve been looking for all these years. Winning this huge fight would change everything for Fonfara and myself.

 

This camp that Andrzej had was the best we’ve ever had. He worked hard, he had time to train and there’s no excuses.

 

We’re coming to fight a war. Don’t forget that wars are won by strategy.

 

People say to listen to your father. His father told him not to take this fight, but he took it anyway and that was a mistake.

 

I see this fight not going past 10 rondes, with us getting the knockout.

 

STACY MCKINLEY, Entrenador de l'Imam

Amir has always trained very hard, but I did see a change in him in this training camp after the last fight. He has stepped up his training by two levels.

 

He learned a lot about his fight against [Fidel Maldonado] under the bright SHOWTIME lights at the MGM Grand.

 

Amir is always confident going into each fight, but he made a mistake in the Maldonado fight. He rolled his right hand and forgot about the left hand and was knocked down. He had to pay for his mistakes but it’s all a learning experience, he still has only 16 professional fights under his belt.

 

Castillo has a great jab and good combinations. A guy like that throws a lot of punches, but there is a technique to breaking down a fighter like that.

 

We can’t spend a lot of time on the ropes, and we must go after his body because his body is weak. Castillo is going to get knocked out en dissabte.

 

I think that Amir is going to open up a lot of eyes en dissabte.”

VAN NUYS, Qualif.(Abril 13, 2015) – L'ex campió del món Juli Cèsar Chavez Jr. va dur a terme una sessió d'exercicis de mitjans el divendres in front of a packed house at Ten Goose Boxing Gym in Van Nuys, Qualif., as the Mexican superstar prepares to make his SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING® debutar a Dissabte, Abril 18, al StubHub Center a Carson, Qualif., viure TEMPS DE LA FUNCIÓ(10 p.m. I/7 p.m. PT).

Juli Cèsar Chavez, per a molts el millor boxejador mexicà de tots els temps, fet acte de presència durant l'entrenament del seu fill per mostrar el seu suport i oferir paraules d'alè.

 

Això és el que Chávez Jr., Julio Cesar Chavez and Joe Goossen (entrenador) havia de dir Divendres al gimnàs de Los Angeles-area:

 

JULIOL CESAR CHAVEZ JR., L'ex Campió del Món

I am very focused going into this fight. I have changed a lot mentally this past year.

 

I am fighting [Andrzej] Fonfara now because I like big opponents. I like the challenge of fighting good, hungry fighters. Just because Fonfara doesn’t have the name recognition of other fighters, it doesn’t make him an easy fighter. És dur.

 

I feel comfortable at light heavyweight. Any time that you can add a couple pounds, you feel better. Although I will be fighting at 175, I feel most comfortable at 168 com boxejador. Since I have had one year off, it was a better choice to fight at this weight so that I could see how my body feels.

 

Since I have added a few pounds, I have become a more physical and stronger boxer. The light heavyweight division has very big and physical contenders.

 

“Joe [Goossen] is a great trainer. He is a great motivator to his fighters and makes them better. I have worked very hard with him for the 35 days we spent together in Lake Tahoe.

 

When I was training with Freddie Roach, it was very different. I think Freddie is a great trainer, but Joe also has a lot of experience and we have made a connection together.

 

I really liked training in Lake Tahoe. The altitude, l'anell, everything I needed was there. I felt very comfortable up there and I would like to come back there to train for a fight again.

 

I promise a great fight, this is a very exciting fight. Fonfara isn’t an easy opponent, but he has never seen an opponent like me.

 

 

JULIO CESAR CHAVEZ SR.

I am here to support and be with my son. I try to give him good advice. I tell him to train and prepare hard, and fortunately he is doing that well.

 

I think Joe [Goossen] is doing a great job, we are on the same page. We are all focused on him [Chavez Jr.] getting to the fight well prepared. This fight requires great preparation because he is going into the fight at a weight that’s higher than his normal weight and he is facing a very tough opponent.

 

He must go in 100 percent to win this fight.

 

I think there has been a 180 degree turn in his career. I see this as a positive because he can really develop his ability and looks very well prepared.

 

I would’ve liked to have seen him take a tune up fight instead because of his long layoff; I particularly didn’t want this fight.

 

“Juliol [Chavez Jr.] wants credibility in this sport and that’s why he made the decision to take this fight, even though it’s a dangerous decision. He must be very prepared for this fight.

 

JOE GOOSSEN, Chávez Jr.s’ Entrenador

I’ve been asked over the years who the one fighter was that I would like to work and my answer was always Julio Cesar Chavez Jr.

 

I’ve always really admired his style. I had known him as a kid, his father is a legend. It had always seemed like a dream job for me, and out of nowhere I got it.

 

Lake Tahoe was tremendous for training camp. You are isolated and it’s not an easy thing. When you aren’t training you are sitting in a hotel room. You are deprived the comforts of home, but it really gives you that concentration and dedication factor and I think that will interpret into some positive results.

 

I matured over my years, once I had a kid and a family and I think the same has happened with Julio. Life becomes clearer when you put away the immaturity. You realize that you have a future and if you really want to access what’s available to you, then you are going to have to work hard and dedicate yourself to it.

 

Going to Lake Tahoe and really working hard is a sign of maturity and I think that’s what Julio is going through right now. He really showed it by leaving his home and spending an extended period of time up there. To me that is a great indicator that he is mature, dedicated and taking this fight very seriously.

 

Of course I believe Julio is ready to fight Fonfara. The fight was made before I even came on board, but that’s the challenge that I am presented with. You must figure out a good game plan and figure out what you’re up against.

 

Just because Julio has been out a year doesn’t mean that it’s going to be a cake walk for Fonfara. We went up to Lake Tahoe with one thing in mind, and that’s winning this fight and that’s exactly what we’re going to do.

Un de més ràpid creixement prospectes de la boxa, de 24 anys d'edat, el Imam ha noquejat 14 de la seva 16 professional opponents since turning pro in 2011. The Albany, N.Y., native is coming off a fifth-round TKO of Fidel Maldonado Jr., in a brawl on Jan. 17 on SHOWTIME that featured five total knockdowns. Tinc, currently ranked No. 4 in the WBA and No. 7 en el CMB, touched the canvas for the first time in his career but bounced back and relied on his power to floor Maldonado a total of four times.

 

I know Walter is a tough fighter, he comes forward and throws a lot of punches,” Imam va dir. “But I will figure him out quickly once I get inside the ring. I’m working on a lot of different things for this training camp, lots of tricky moves that are going to excite the fans. It’s great to fight outdoors at StubHub Center and to showcase my talents on SHOWTIME. I’m here to entertain and prove I’m ready for that title shot.

 

Castell (25-2, 18 KOs), de Managua, Nicaragua, has won nine straight and KO’d six of his last seven opponents. The 26-year-old has fought mostly in Nicaragua and the only blemishes on his record are a split-decision loss in his pro debut and a controversial 2008 split decision on the road against former world champ Vicente Mosquera a Panamà. Castell, who has knocked out his last four opponents inside of four rounds, will make his second start in the U.S. after winning his American debut via first round TKO last October.

 

“Estic molt emocionat per aquesta baralla. I’ve been training hard for months now and can’t wait for the bell to ring,” Castillo said. “Where I’m from we have a history of great warriors like Alexis Arguello and Rosendo Alvarez and on Abril 18 I’m looking to moving one step closer to adding my name to that list. Imam may be undefeated but I’m ready for a war.

Only the ending remains in doubt: Is Junior being punished for the sins of his father, or is he doomed to repeat them?

ADONIS STEVENSON

 

“He treballat dur per poder anar a 12 rondes. El vaig deixar dues vegades. Ell mai ha estat noquejat i jo sabia que havia vingut preparat per lluitar.

 

“Li vaig dir que seria feliç amb un nocaut o anar la distància per aconseguir la victòria. Així que estic molt content de com he lluitat avui i amb el resultat.

 

“Bika utilitza una mica el cap i va tractar de baralla, però jo era capaç de controlar la baralla. Jo sabia que ell no acaba d'arribar a Canadà per a la diversió, però per guanyar.

 

“Estar involucrat amb Lliga de Campions de boxa i lluita per la cadena CBS ha estat una gran experiència. Això és fantàstic per a la boxa i esperem més i més nens començaran a involucrar-se en l'esport.

 

“Quant al que ve, Vaig a esperar i veure el que Al (Haymon) té per a mi. Vaig a estar llest per anar de nou al juny o juliol.”

 

Saki BULL

 

“Adonis mereixia guanyar aquesta lluita. No puc prendre res fora d'ell. Va barallar molt bé.

 

“Em van enxampar amb un dret i lliscar la primera vegada que vaig baixar. Quan ell em va agafar amb l'esquerra i vaig baixar més endavant realment no m'afecta gaire en realitat. Ell és el campió i encara va barallar una gran baralla avui.

 

“Lluitar per la cadena CBS ha estat un destacat increïble per a la meva carrera. No vaig aconseguir la victòria, però em vaig posar una gran baralla perquè el públic vegi.

 

“Per ara, Aniré a casa i gaudir de la meva família. Llavors vaig a veure d'una altra baralla.”

 

ARTUR Beterbiev

 

“En aquesta lluita vaig poder mostrar realment el que sóc capaç de fer i la meva experiència va valer la pena.

 

“Quan vaig veure imatges de Campillo em vaig adonar del que va fer córrer molt. Jo no estava tractant de ser l'agressor. Acabo vaig enganxar al meu pla de joc.

 

“Estic molt feliç d'estar en el gran escenari a la CBS en un punt tan d'hora en la meva carrera professional. Tot això es va ajuntar molt ràpidament i espero tornar aviat.

 

“Estem planejant tornar a barallar al maig i que vaig a deixar el que el meu oponent estarà en les mans de Déu.”

 

Gabriel Campillo

 

“Tenia moltes ganes d'empènyer Beterbiev a les rondes finals d'aquesta lluita per veure com anava a manejar això, però jo no era capaç d'aconseguir que es faci.

 

“El cop més important era la primera vegada que em va sorprendre en la primera ronda. Després que el tir no va ser capaç de recuperar mi mateix.

 

“Jo estava molt emocionat de tenir aquesta oportunitat de lluitar per la cadena CBS. Aquesta producció de PBC va ser molt agradable per ser part de i crec que la sèrie va a fer molt per ajudar a créixer l'esport.

 

“El meu pla per ara és descansar. Després ens tornarem a visitar la situació i veiem tornar a barallar.”

 

JULIAN WILLIAMS

 

“No hi va haver Hernández subestimar per aquesta baralla. Hem estudiat un munt de pel·lícules sobre ell i tenia una molt bona idea del que anava a portar a l'actualitat l'anell.

 

“Vaig pensar que la meva jab i els meus moviments eren els meus dos fortaleses més importants en aquesta lluita. Tallant l'anell va ser clau.

 

“Aquesta sèrie PBC i tenir les baralles en una xarxa important com CBS és enorme per a l'esport de la boxa. És molt bo per entrar en molts més llars, i espero que ajuda a que l'esport sigui més populars. Esperem que això arribi a aquests nens que no poden pagar per cable de subscripció i ajuda a animar els nens més joves per entrar en l'esport.

 

“No estic segur del que ve. Vaig a esperar Al (Haymon) per fer-me saber, però realment estic esperant una oportunitat per una tapa 10 combat abans que acabi l'any.”

 

Joey HERNANDEZ

 

“Williams és probablement el millor lluitador que he enfrontat fins ara. Ell no és el batedor més difícil, però ell va fer una baralla molt intel·ligent. Ell va utilitzar la seva alçada i profunditat per mantenir fora del meu jab i romandre fora del meu abast.

 

“Lamentablement vaig haver rebre cops per donar cops en aquesta lluita. Quan vaig entrar jo era capaç d'aconseguir els meus cops off, però jo no podia fer prou per aconseguir la victòria.

 

“Aquesta va ser una gran baralla per als aficionats i la lluita per la cadena CBS em va donar una gran oportunitat perquè molta més gent a veure aquestes baralles.

 

“Encara sóc jove als 30 anys d'edat. Sé que vaig a estar de tornada al ring. Faig això perquè vull i m'encanta, no perquè ho necessito.”

QUEBEC CITY, QUEBEC (Abril 1, 2015) – During Dimecres de final press conference at Le Bonne Entente in Quebec City, both Adonis “Superhome” Stevenson i Sakio “El Escorpí” Taure promised a knockout when they meet in the main event of the debut presentation of Lliga de Campions de Boxa (PBC) a CBSTelevision Network this Saturday, Abril 4, a 3 p.m. I/PT Noon.

 

The hard-hitting Stevenson (25-1, 21 KOs) will defend his light heavyweight world championship against former super middleweight world champion Bika (32-6-3, 21 KOs) in the main event from the Pepsi Coliseum a la ciutat de Quebec.

 

The case was the same with the co-main event fighters as both undefeated light heavyweight and two-time Russian Olympian Artur Beterbiev (7-0, 7 KOs) and former light heavyweight world champion Gabriel Campillo (25-6-1, 12 KOs) expected to win via KO aquest dissabte tarda. Campillo, sporting a Tom Brady jersey, even promised he would win in dramatic fashion like this year’s Super Bowl Champion New England Patriots.

 

Below are quotes from the fighters and trainers from Dimecres de conferència de premsa:

 

ADONIS STEVENSON:

I know Sakio is going to try to take my title, but I’m prepared for that.

 

I know he was a champion. I made the move from 168 a 175 pounds and it worked well for me. I expect him to bring his best at 175 lliura. He’s a former champ so I’m preparing to face a champion.

 

I’m looking for the KO because I’m from the Kronk Gym. Knockouts sell. But I can go 12 rondes, that’s not a problem. I train for 12 rondes.

 

My trainer has given me a great plan. He knows Sakio Bika very well and we’ll see what happens in the ring.

 

Bika is still going to have the same power moving up in weight. He should actually be stronger.

 

I’m very focused because I know Bika is very dangerous. I know he’s going to come into the ring and try to give me trouble.

 

I’m a knockout artist. I can do a lot in the ring, but first and foremost I’m a knockout artist.

 

I’d love to unify the belts eventually, but I’ll let my manager Al Haymon take care of that.

 

My mentor Emanuel Steward always told me that as soon as I enter the ring the knockout is what sells. I’ll definitely be going for the knockout aquest dissabte on CBS.

 

I’m ready to go toe-to-toe. Adonis Stevenson vs. Sakio Bika on CBS, baby.

 

 

Saki BULL:

To beat a great fighter you have to be your best. I’m looking to take the WBC title back home.

 

I’ve fought everyoneI’ve never ducked an opponentand I don’t know if he can handle the pressure.

 

I feel more comfortable at 175 lliura. I want to test the big boy [Stevenson] and I feel like I can do that. En dissabte we’ll see.

 

He’s knocked people out, però mai he estat noquejat. En dissabte I’ll be the one to knock him out.

 

I’m very hungry to get a world title back. I trained very hard at light heavyweight to get a title back.

 

I didn’t come here to Canada just to walk and look around. I came here to take this belt back home and I’m very confident I’m going to do that.

 

Training camp went very well, we put in good work and now we’re here in Canada ready to shock the world.

 

 

JAVANSUGARHILL:

Training camp was very good as always. Nothing different, just hard work perfecting his boxing and the basic fundamentals. We’re looking for him to make a mistake and catch him.

 

The way you prepare for an unorthodox fighter like Bika is to make sure your basics are sound. You have to have a good jab, you have to have good movement and you have to have ‘super powerAnd I have “Superhome.

 

Emanuel also told me the knockout sells. It’s something that we both know and it’s something that is imbedded in us. We’re looking for the knockout on Abril 4. Sometimes I see things that Adonis is looking to do before he does it. So I’ll just be sitting there waiting for Adonis to catch Sakio Bika making a mistake and getting a knockout.

 

I’m super proud to represent Kronk Gym. That’s why I wear my hat here. Kronk to me is like my family name and that’s what I live by. I was born into Kronk when I was a little kid going to a tournament with my uncle Emanuel and all I remember is the Kronk fighters winning. And that’s what I do now: victòria.

 

Adonis is an artist, he’s a KO artist. El meu predicció per Dissabte is a knockout on CBS.

 

There’s been a lot of talk and now it’s time for action. Toe-to-toe on Abril 4. No t'ho perdis.”

 

 

KEVIN CUNNINGHAM:

“Vam tenir un gran camp d'entrenament. Everyone was relaxed. We had great sparring.

 

He was making 168 pretty easy, but stepping up he’s able to eat whatever he wants. The weight is good. We think he’s going to be good and strong at 175. It’s a good move for him.

 

He’s never had any problems with power, so I think the extra weight and energy should be good for him at light heavyweight.

 

All this talk about Stevenson fighting (Sergey) Kovalev has motivated him pretty good. I think it gave him a pretty good picture of how the business of boxing works. He realizes that when the bell rings he needs to do something about it and he’s motivated by that.

 

I can’t say if Stevenson is overlooking him because I’m not around him enough. But I know the fans and media want to make the Kovalev fight. It was good for Bika to hear that because it motivated him. He knows he has an opportunity to do something about it. En dissabte afternoon he can change all that.

 

If Stevenson does what he says he’s going to domeet him in the center of the ring and go toe-to-toethis is going to be a tremendous fight.

 

If he comes to the center of the ring and fights and goes toe-to-toe then this fight won’t go the distance. If Stevenson comes to trade I think he gets knocked out. If he runs around the ring and boxes then it could be a different outcome.

 

 

ARTUR Beterbiev:

I don’t think this is a big challenge for me. I’m ready to face the world champions and raise the bar higher. This is just another opponent for me.

 

This is another step that will move me closer to facing the champions at 175 lliura. I want to put on a solid fight and show that I’m one of the best fighters in this division.

 

A knockout is never a goal for me. I’m trying to show my work and my dedication in the ring, but usually that’s what happens. Usually I finish with a knockout but that is not my main goal. My main goal is to box and show my skills.

 

My motivation is to face the champions. That’s why I work so hard every day in the gym. I will get there soon.

 

Why not face Kovalev? Estic a punt. When I turned professional my goal was to meet the champions. He’s a champion now and I’d like to face the champions.

 

 

Gabriel Campillo:

We started training Jan. 1 and camp has been very good. We’ve been working very hard and I think I’m in great condition for this fight.

 

Beterbiev may not have a lot of professional experience, but he’s had a very long amateur career. So we know that he’s ready and is a good opponent for us. We’ll see how he handles things once we get past the 5º, 6º i 7º rondes.

 

To get ready for a hard-hitter like Beterbiev required lots of conditioning training. We worked the neck and the chin a lot. We think we’ve got a great chance in the second half of this fight though considering Beterbiev hasn’t really been tested like that.

 

As for a prediction, I’m going to knock Beterbiev out in the seventh round.
