Top Contenders Julian Williams & Nathaniel Gallimore Clash in 154-Pound Title Eliminator Saturday, Квітня 7 Live on SHOWTIME® from Hard Rock Hotel & Казино, Лас-Вегас

Ерісланді Лара проти. Jarrett Hurd 154-Pound Title Unification Headlines Event Presented by Premier Boxing Champions
Калеб Труа & James DeGale Square-Off in 168-Pound World Title Rematch in Co-Main Event Of SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING® Tripleheader
Лас-Вегас (Березня 20, 2018) – Джуліан “J-Rock” Вільямс і Натаніель Gallimore, two young, skilled contenders in the stacked 154-pound division, will clash in a 12-round world title eliminator on Субота, Квітня 7 live on SHOWTIME from the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas and presented by Premier Boxing Champions.
The SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING main event will see Ерісланді Лара, the longest reigning world champion at 154-pounds, clash with undefeated champion Джарретт Херд in a highly anticipated 154-pound world title unification bout. The three-fight telecast begins at 10 p.m. І/7 p.m. PT and features Калеб Труа making the first defense of his 168-pound title against Джеймс DeGale in a rematch of their exciting first bout in December.
Williams and Gallimore will look to put themselves into the mandatory position for the IBF Junior Middleweight World Title currently held by Hurd.
Tickets for the show, який сприяє TGB Акції та Мейвезер Акції, are on sale now and available by visiting AXS.com or the Hard Rock Hotel & Казино, Las Vegas Box Office.
The epitome of a Philadelphia fighter, Вільямс (24-1-1, 15 КО) has won his last two fights after suffering the first loss of his career to Jermall Charlo in his first world title fight in 2016 на SHOWTIME. The 27-year-old Williams rebounded by stopping Joshua Conley last June before picking up a victory over former champion Ishe Smith in his most recent fight in November.
This is going to be a really good fight on April 7,” сказав Вільямс “Gallimore has been talking a big game, but I’ve got a big chip on my shoulder, and I’ve been training like it. I think he’s going to bring out something different in me. He’s going to find out that there are different levels to this game. He’s a bit of a stalker in the ring and he’s been knocking people out. He thinks he’s a puncher, but he hasn’t really fought the level of competition that I have. I don’t care if he’s training with Buddy McGirt now, because no one can save him when he’s in that ring.
The 29-year-old Gallimore (20-1-1, 17 КО) has stayed active while rising up the ranks at 154-pounds and picking up four knockout victories in 2017. The Jamaican fighter, who now trains in California with Buddy McGirt, impressively stopped previously unbeaten Jeison Rosario and then once-beaten Justin DeLoach in two performances that announced his arrival as 154-pound contender.
This is going to be my coming out year,” said Gallimore. “This is a huge opportunity to present my skills and my abilities to the world. There’s no mistaking why I’m here, and I’ll make a statement starting with ‘J-Pebbles’ Вільямс. I call him ‘J-Pebblesbecause he’s not a ‘J-Rock.He’s an average fighter. There’s nothing special about him. The best way he can prepare is to do chin pushups, because I’m going to test his chin and that’s the only thing that can protect him. I’m going to dismantle him piece-by-piece, round-by-round, and when that time comes to seek and destroy, Я збираюся взяти його. I’m the one they should be worried about.

Справа Флойда Мейвезера, Молодший. Vs. CM Punk в клітці UFC

За: Багатий Бержерон

Флойд Мейвезер, Молодший. не робиться бойових дій. Гроші, які він заробив з Конором Макгрегором в односторонньому боксерському поєдинку, буде не дуже легко заробити поза небезпечним світом бойових видів спорту. Здається, пенсія завжди їсть у Флойда, і рано чи пізно він повертається до чергового блокбастеру, який шокує світ.

 

CM Punk потребує жеребкування, щоб зацікавити нас його кар'єрою. Навіть якщо він вибиває постійно живу лайно наступного хлопця, вони годують його в восьмикутнику UFC, Панку ще доведеться багато чого довести. Помістіть його проти Мейвезера у привітанні в поєдинку ММА за боксера світового класу, і зробіть це для мрії для Флойда, яка надає йому всі пільги та спонсорські поступки, які він хоче в контракті.

 

Флойд стане автоматичним аутсайдером, який негайно вийде проти Макгрегора в клітці. Такий претендент, як CM Punk, дає йому більше шансів на бій. Це дає CM панку шанс реально розпочати свою кар'єру, якщо він зможе перемогти Флойда.

 

Справа в тому,, Мейвезер може швидко вивчити спорт змішаних єдиноборств, і з його швидкістю та атлетичністю, враховуючи більш вражаючі варіанти, він насправді може шокувати нас у своєму першому бою з ММА… якщо він дійсно підкріплює свої розмови про боротьбу в клітці діями.

 

Під час туру на боксерський матч, Флойд неодноразово посилався на ідею битися з Макгрегором у клітці після того, як боксерський матч пройшов його шлях. Він не говорить уголос того, що насправді не вважає істинним або могло б бути істинним, якщо вклав у це свої зусилля.

 

Мені пощастило стати на краю кільця поруч із Леонардом Еллербе під час тренувань Мейвезера в Лас-Вегасі років тому.

 

Перш ніж він кидав удари по рукавицях, я запитав його, що йому найбільше подобається у боксі. Я не намагався наблизитися під час великої преси, тому я думаю, що він не сподівався на запитання.

 

Він сидів мовчки, і я не хотів, щоб воно висіло, як поганий пердеть на вітрі. Я ще раз запитав, ще голосніше. Він не дивився на мене, коли тінився з собою. “Все.” нарешті він поступився, а потім він приступив до роботи, щоб показати свою швидкість і вдарити, щоб усі ЗМІ побачили.

 

Включення ліктів, спинки, удари ногою та боротьба в його рутинному режимі можуть створити справжнього монстра з Мейвезера. Також, гроші від боксу, які стежать за ним до клітки, можуть бути величезними як для нього, так і для UFC. У його віці знадобиться маса роботи, щоб адаптуватися до нового виду спорту, але CM Punk як перший суперник ставить планку досить низько, оскільки обидва чоловіки отримують шанс показати свою належність. Give them both a serious training camp, make a reality show out of it, and it could happen.

 

 

 

“Гроші” is already preparing to train in mixed martial arts with UFC Champ Tyron Woodley, and he heaped some praise on both Woodley and McGregor as fighters recently:

 

“So we have to tweak a few things then, take things to that next level. You know I can’t overlook or knock any MMA guy. Tyron is unbelievable. Unbelievable fighter, tough competitor. Конор МакГрегор, he’s a tough competitor, helluva fighter. There’s a lot of tough, rugged guys out there in MMA and I can’t overlook or disrespect those guys.”

 

 

 

The MMA versus Boxing debate has been going on since long before I decided to do my own take on it with a series of radio shows pitting one expert against another. One of my favorites was “Альпініст” John Scully against Ken Shamrock.

 

Не дивно, the debate between these two fighter/trainer experts drifted into Mayweather making the crossover to MMA. This is not a new concept to Floyd. He’s been hearing the critics yap about him never making it in MMA for more than a decade now, always thinking about how he could one day prove his haters wrong.

 

 

Anyone who thinks the best MMA fighter in his weight class demolishes Floyd has never watched him train. What could this guy do with a couple of tune-up fights and a title tilt? How about 9 months of hard training in takedown and submission defense?

 

Everybody and their brother who knows anything about MMA decides to use the argument of all the past boxers who failed at MMA. They remind us all of the freakshow fight involving Randy Couture easily defeating James Toney. Флойд Мейвезер, Молодший. is not only on a different level than James Toney was when he got the chance to fight in the cage, he’s on a different planet.

 

 

Floyd can afford the best trainers, the best of everything really in preparing to enter the UFC Octagon. He will spare no expense in finances and sweat equity in cementing his legacy as the best crossover fighter in the history of the boxing and MMA rivalry. Who has the best true athletes? Mayweather is representing boxing’s best, and he doesn’t have much time left to prove that a world class boxer can dominate the MMA scene with the right approach and strategy.

 

 

 

McGregor did prove that he could give Floyd a few fits in the boxing ring, but on the third fight into a UFC contract that match could happen again in the cage. Floyd just has to show he belongs, but the first step is having the guts to back up his words with actions. He did say on the boxing press tour for the McGregor fight that when he beat McGregor in his own craft, he would go to the UFC and beat Conor in the cage, занадто.

 

 

 

I anticipate aShark Tanktype of negotiation between Mayweather and UFC President Dana White. Floyd will need to get a piece of the promotion itself, access to a wild amount of sponsorship cash, options to collect on media income, and at least $10 million per fight in just base pay. To get the billion dollar contract he envisions, the lawyers will be ironing out the details for as long as Floyd decides he needs to train for his first fight.

 

Floyd could easily rake in $90+ million in sponsorship and media income to make $100 million per fight with Showtime executives in his corner and a familiarity with being in front of the cameras. A five fight deal means there is a 1/2 billion dollar gap unless I am underestimating how much the UFC would give Floyd for base pay. Even if he makes $200 million per fight, the rest would have to come out of the overall corporation itself as equity, which is what Conor McGregor has been asking for.

 

Floyd just has a bigger upside to being an owner/partner and would be a huge asset when it comes to the UFC wanting to promote boxing at some point. He can also bring his fans and everyone who wants to see him get whipped and schooled in the new discipline. He brings eyeballs, extreme attention and money with him wherever he goes. At a $5 billion valuation, the UFC would likely be able to part with a ten percent chunk of the promotion to bring Mayweather officially on board and get him locked in for a long-term deal.

 

 

The other area that Floyd could have a huge impact on is in attracting more boxers to cross over to MMA. We’ve seen football players like Matt Mitrione and Greg Hardy experience virtually immediate success in MMA, so why not a world class boxer like Floyd? 19-0 Pro Boxer Gervonta Davis is already hinting at following his protege Floyd to MMA and says he’s just waiting for Dana White’s phone call. Then there are the heavyweight boxers to think about bringing into the cage, and Word Champion Anthony Joshua is keen on giving it a shot, занадто.

 

 

 

Так, the odds are high that Mayweather steps into the cage to compete by December of this year if you believe one of his most controversial videos to date on the subject:

 

 

Mayweather could be an incredible MMA fighter if given half the chance. He is not a man who takes a challenge like this lightly. He will have the best approach possible to get into cagefighting shape. He will bring all kinds of interest back to the boxing vs. MMA debate and actually might even inspire a whole new phase of that debate. The combat sports world as a whole will benefit if Floyd and the UFC can make this partnership work.

 

 

As for those who think Floyd will get eaten alive, they are certainly entitled to their opinion, but don’t use McGregor’s failure to adapt to boxing as your bar for Floyd. Mayweather will not take on a world class MMA fighter the first time he steps in the cage. He will not bring in the MMA equivalent of Paulie Malignaggi to get up to speed on the sport. He will spare no expense to get the best preparation possible. He’s already showing that to be true by bringing Tyron Woodley on as his official training partner. He will hand pick his first opponent and likely not get any crack at a title until two or three fights go his way.

 

Critics of people who think they can show up to an MMA gym and come out in six weeks at the UFC level will call me crazy, but Floyd truly is an amazing athlete who can quiet his doubters, and he’s not getting any younger. It’s now or never to solve that question of which sport is truly better at crafting the ideal fighter.

ERISLANDY LARA AND JARRETT HURD TO CLASH IN 154-POUND TITLE UNIFICATION LIVE ON SHOWTIME ONSATURDAY, Квітня 7 FROM THE HARD ROCK HOTEL & Казино в Лас-Вегасі

Caleb Truax and James DeGale To Battle in a 168-Pound World Title Rematch in the Co-Main Event of the
Premier Boxing Champions Event
Квитки на продаж П'ятниця, Березня 16
Лас-Вегас (Березня 9, 2018) – Ерісланді Лара, the longest reigning world champion at 154-pounds, will clash with IBF champion “Швидко” Джарретт Херд in a highly-anticipated super welterweight title unification live on SHOWTIME (10 PM ET/7 вечора за тихоокеанським) as part of an exciting card presented by Premier Boxing Champions Saturday, Квітня 7 from The Joint at Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas.
У со-головній події, Суперсередній чемпіон світу Калеб Труа will make the first defense of his IBF title against Джеймс DeGale in a rematch of one of the biggest upsets of 2017 that saw Truax wrestle the belt from DeGale on his home turf in London last December.
Tickets for the show, який сприяє TGB Акції та Мейвезер Акції, надійде в продаж П'ятниця, Березня 16 and be available by visiting AXS.com or the Hard Rock Hotel & Казино, Las Vegas Box Office.
This is an action-packed card from top to bottom. The televised card features boxers who all have something significant to gain with a victory,” said Tom Brown, Президент TGB Акції. “The winner of Lara-Hurd will be one step closer to becoming the undisputed 154-pound world champion. In a rematch, Truax gets to re-affirm his position as champion and DeGale has a chance to regain his world championship status. This is the kind of show that keeps fans on the edge of their seats.
We take pride in promoting quality events that our audiences always want to see,” сказав Леонард Еллербе, Генеральний директор Мейвезер Акції. “This card is going to be another line-up that the fans won’t want to miss. With Lara and Hurd looking to unify their titles and guys going head-to-head in rematches on the undercard, this is sure to be a night of non-stop action.
Лара проти. Hurd is a classic contrast in styles that could force each fighter to raise their game to another level. Lara is a crafty southpaw who relies on his superior boxing skills to confound opponents, while Hurd is a pure pressure boxer-puncher that stalks his opponents and isn’t easily frustrated.
Лара, a Cuban whose nickname is “Американська мрія”, is coming off a unanimous decision victory on SHOWTIME over Terrell Gausha in October. Hurd was on the same card and defeated former champion Austin Trout when Trout’s corner stopped the fight in the 10ї круглий. That paved the way for this unification showdown.
The 34-year-old Lara (25-2-2, 14 КО), who lives and trains in Houston, Техас, won his world title with a TKO victory over Alfredo Angulo in 2013 and has successfully defended it seven times, which includes wins over Trout, Ishe Smith and Vanes Martirosyan.
I’m very excited and motivated for this fight and to once again be headlining on the best network in boxing on SHOWTIME, is truly a pleasure,” сказала Лара. “I look forward to adding another belt to my collection on April 7 and to proving that I’m the best 154-pound fighter out there. Everyone tune-in because you don’t want to miss this unification. It’s going to be a legendary night and one for the history books.
The undefeated Hurd (21-0, 15 КО) is coming off a career-defining TKO victory over the former champion Trout in his last fight on Жовтень. 14. It was the first defense of the title for the 27-year Hurd of Accokeek, Меріленд, who won the championship with a TKO victory over Tony Harrison on Feb. 25, 2017.
I plan on being the aggressor for the entire fight, so I’ve been doing some exercises and working on techniques to improve my foot work so that I can stay on top of Erislandy Lara,” Саїд Херд. “We are not trying to go to the scorecards, so hopefully, I can be the first man to stop him, which I hope to do in the later rounds.
I called him out, і зараз, it has come to pass that I get to become a unified champion against the man everyone considers to be the best and most feared in the division, and that’s Erislandy Lara.
They call 34-year-old Truax “Золотий”, and he punched his ticket to world title gold while on a trip to London in December, when he defeated DeGale by majority decision. Truax (29-3-2, 18 КО) of Osseo, Minnesota was on a two-fight win streak heading into the match against DeGale. Before that his only losses came against former champions Anthony Dirrell, Daniel Jacobs and Jermain Taylor.
They made the right call on the decision in England, and I expect to be even more dominant this time around,” Truax said. “I am planning to really just beat up James Gale and get the job done in more efficient fashion this time.
Fighting in Las Vegas for the first time will be a very cool experience and I expect it to be friendlier than it was in London. There is a lot of pride on the line for me, being that I’m the first boxing world champion from Minnesota in a long time. So there is a lot on the line for me and I plan to keep that going, especially as a means for supporting my family.
The 32-year-old DeGale (23-2-1, 14 КО) was the first British boxer to win a Gold Medal in the Olympics (2008 Beijing Games) and a world championship as a professional. He won his world title with a unanimous decision over Andre Dirrell in 2015 and made two successful defenses before fighting to a draw against Badou Jack on Jan. 14, 2017. It was a brutal standoff between two world champions, but neither man had his hand raised in victory. DeGale, who was coming off of an injury, had his home town crowd behind him but couldn’t deliver a win as Truax scored a stunning upset with the majority decision victory.
‘I’m happy to have the opportunity to rematch Truax and regain my IBF title,” said DeGale. “I am not going to make excuses for my poor performance, actions speak louder than words. I am excited to be boxing in Vegas and on SHOWTIME again. The real JD will be back on fight night!”

Лас-Вегас (Лютого. 17, 2018) – Former two-division world champion Danny Garcia returned with a vengeance, knocking out Brandon Rios in a WBC Welterweight Title Eliminator in the main event of SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING Субота on SHOWTIME from Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas.
Returning for the first time since dropping a close split-decision to Keith Thurman in a welterweight world championship unification fight in March of 2017, Garcia reminded fans of his position amongst boxing’s elite at 147 pounds with an early candidate for 2018 Нокаут року.
Гарсія (34-1, 20 КО) did his best work in the center of the ring, where he was able to box at a distance and fend off Riosfurious pace. Ріос, who returned in 2017 from a brief retirement, was most effective against the ropes where he gave Garcia trouble with his constant pressure and his favorite weapona wide overhand right.
In the ninth round with the fight where Garcia wanted itin the center of the ringthe Philadelphia native landed a huge counter right to the chin that sent Rios flat on his back. Rios beat the count, but was clearly wobbly on his feet, forcing referee Kenny Bayless to halt the contest at 2:25 of the ninth.
I felt the ring rust a little bit in the beginning,” сказав Гарсія, who recorded the 20th knockout of his career. “He’s a good inside fighter and he was giving me some good uppercuts. Я почував себе добре, it was a good nine rounds. Він прийшов, щоб боротися. I came to box, I did that. I came to bang, and I gave the fans what they wanteda knockout.
I just noticed when I was getting my punches off he was standing right in front of me and I just let it go. As soon as I got the fight in the middle of the ring where I wanted I landed good shots. I was just letting my hands go and the punch landed.
Після бою, SHOWTIME Sports reporter Jim Gray asked Garcia how the loss to Thurman affected him.
The loss was tough. I have the mindset of a winner,” Garcia said. “I hate losing. I took it like a true champion and I bounced back like a true champion.
I would love the rematch with Keith Thurman. It’s on him. Whenever he’s ready we’ll fight.
WBA and WBC Champion Thurman isn’t the only potential blockbuster on the horizon for Garcia. Former welterweight champion and the WBC’s No. 1 ranked contender Shawn Porter looms for what would be a massive showdown between the former champions.
Після бою, Ріос (34-4-1, 24 КО) was frustrated with the stoppage and promised to return.
I’m mad. I don’t like going out like that,” Rios said. “I’m a warrior, I got back up and I wanted to continue. I guess they stopped it but I’m mad. I’m mad because I got up.
I was doing good. I got lazy with the jab and he came over with the right hand and he caught me. I’m a warrior. I’m still in the game. I didn’t think he did much to hurt me. I think it was closer than what he thought it was. He just caught me with a lucky punch. I was ready to continue.
Boxing’s youngest world champion, Девід Бенавідес, left no questions in a rematch with Ronald Gavril, defending his WBC Super Middleweight World Championship with a dominating 12-round unanimous decision in Суботу co-feature on SHOWTIME.
The 21-year-old Benavidez and Gavril had fought to a close split-decision in one of 2017’s best fights that saw Benavidez drop to the canvas in the final minute of the 12ї і фінал. The Phoenix native had no trouble in the immediate rematch, utilizing a stiff jab and a steady diet of combo shots to win a near-shutout over the game Gavril.
Бенавідес (20-0, 17 КО) wore down Gavril with an intelligent body attack, pounding the midsection to open up power shots and jabs to the head. Benavidez had his best round in the fourth, connecting on a huge right uppercut that nearly floored Gavrilwho appeared to be saved by the ropesand then pounced with a series of damaging combo shots.
Benavidez appeared to hurt his right hand in the second half of the fight and stepped off the gas in the 10th, 11th and 12th. But Benavidez, who connected on 41 відсотків його потужність пострілу, still landed the harder shots and utilized a stiff left jab to keep Gavril largely at bay.
I knew he was going to come aggressive. He’s a one-trick opponent,” Benavidez said. “I knew I could jab and box him all day. When I saw the opening I took it. I didn’t knock him out thoughhe’s a tough son of a gun.
Both my hands hurt but I have that warrior’s mentality so I kept pushing.
I want to be the best in division. So whoever they put in front of me that’s what I want to do.
Гаврило (18-3, 14 КО) didn’t make any excuses for dropping what was an action-packed affair that was scored 119-109 і 120-108 двічі.
He tried to box me on the outside,” Gavril said. “It was good fight. He was the better man tonight. Що я можу сказати,? I want to go back in the gym and come back stronger.
In the opening bout of SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING, Yordenis Ugas scored the biggest win of his career, knocking out Ray Robinson in the seventh round of an IBF Welterweight Eliminator.
згас (21-3, 10 КО) now holds the IBF’s No. 2 position to undefeated champion Errol Spence Jr.
згас, a former amateur standout who is now 6-0 since moving up to the 147-pound class, set the tone with a knockdown in the closing minute of the opening round. Робінсон (24-3, 12 КО) survived and was later deducted a point for hitting after the bell as the fourth round came to a close. The illegal punch floored an unexpected Ugas, who rebounded and continued to dominate the subsequent rounds.
In the opening minute of the seventh, the 31-year-old Ugas landed a massive right that floored Robinson, who beat the count but was clearly hurt. Ugas unleashed an onslaught with a series of combos, forcing referee Robert Byrd to step in to halt the contest at 1:05 with Robinson defenseless against the ropes.
Ugas landed 51 percent of his power shots and was comfortably ahead on all three judges at the time of the stoppage.
I felt like I was the stronger fighter by far and he didn’t hurt me,” said Ugas. “He lost a point for hitting me after the bell sounded, and knocked me down, but even that didn’t hurt me. He was very awkward and his style threw off my timing.
Luckily I was able to land body shots that I knew were hurting him. I was able to dictate the pace and we never in trouble.
I want Errol Spence next. Everyone wants Errol.

Here is what the fighters had to say from Rhythm & Riffs Lounge in Las Vegas:
Денні Гарсія
I took a little under a year off just to enjoy my life. I’ve worked hard my whole life; I’ve been boxing for 20 роки. I just wanted to be a regular person and let my mind rest, spend time with my daughter and enjoy some of my money.
“Найбільше, I just felt like I needed the rest. It wasn’t about the hunger because I’ve always had passion for the sport. Я люблю бокс. I love the competition.
I’m back now and I’ve been in camp for three months. Я тренувався. I feel great and I feel confident.
It was a close fight against Thurman. I walked out of there with no injuries. Thurman was the one with the elbow injury, so he took more punishment than me. I could easily be unified champion of the world right now. Зрештою,, I’m a champion. That’s my mindset. What doesn’t break me, makes me stronger.
It feels great to be from Philly right now. The atmosphere is crazy. When the Eagles won the Super Bowl, it felt like I won. They motivated me to go out there and do what I have to do.
It’s the Danny Garcia show so I’m going to go in there and do what I want to do. I’m going to dictate the pace. If we want to bang, we can bang. If we want to box, we can box.
I’ve faced fighters that came straight at me before. I’ve faced fighters that moved. I’m prepared for whatever. I’m a young veteran in the sport and what made me a true champion is adapting to anything and overcoming adversity. If I have to overcome adversity в суботу ніч, then I’m going to do that because that’s what I was built for.
I need to get a victory в суботу ніч. I can’t overlook anybody. I’ve seen some crazy things happen in boxing. One punch can change everything, so I’m just focused в суботу ніч.”
Брендон Ріос
“Я готовий 100 відсотків. I’m ready to give the fans an exciting show and that’s what I’ve prepared for. That’s my style. I always come forward and I come to fight. We ain’t dancing, we’re going to be fighting.
Robert Garcia has always been my brother. He’s a brother from another mother. It felt great to be back with Robert Garcia and I’m just ready for the fight now. Him and Donald Leary have me confident in myself, and that’s the most important thing.
I’m going to take advantage of every opportunity. This can make or break me. I’m doing everything right in training and dieting. I usually say I can’t wait until weigh-ins but this time I can’t wait until Субота.
There’s no weight issue at all. I’m perfectly on-weight right now. I’m perfectly fine health-wise, there’s no injuries. Я 100 percent ready.
DAVID Benavidez
I’m going to put Gavril into retirement after this fight. Я збираюся його нокаутувати. This is going to be the fight of the night so you guys don’t want to miss it. He’s not going to want to box again after I get done with him.
He dropped me but I wasn’t hurt at any point of that fight. I got back up and smiled. I did not feel his power at all.
It wasn’t a tough decision to give him a rematch because it was a great fight. I just want to give the fans the fights they want to see. They said the first one was a war, let’s make this one a war too.
I’m not offended by Gavril’s talk because he’s a good fighter. This is just more hype for the fight and more motivation for me to go in there and make it a war.
“На цей раз, there’s going to be a little bit more boxing. I really want to put this guy away so in order to do that, I need to step up every part of my game.
Рональд Гаврил
In the first fight, I proved to everybody that I have the skill and the power to be the best in this division. I thought that I won the fight, especially with the knockdown. So now, I had more than eight weeks to prepare for this fight when I only had four weeks for the first fight. I’m better now.
I was not surprised Benavidez gave me the rematch because it was such a good fight. I think Benavidez talks to much. He said before the first fight that he was coming to stop me in four rounds or five rounds. He cannot stop me. А тепер, he said the same thing before this fight. He can’t do that. Why do you think he got a new fitness coach?”
YORDENIS UGAS
Moving up from 140 для 147 в 2016 has been great for me. Putting on the extra weight only makes me stronger.
I’m ready to fight Robinson. я відчуваю 100 percent and after I fight him в суботу, I’m looking forward to fighting (Еррол) Spence if I’m successful.
I’m going to jump on the fact that I have length and reach on him. I have the height advantage. I can find a way to come in and attack the body first.
“Це, безумовно, самий великий бій у моїй кар'єрі. It’s an eliminator so I’m going for the win в суботу ніч.”
RAY ROBINSON
At one point, I used to put a lot of pressure on myself because of my name. I put so much pressure on myself that I even think I lost a couple fights. I look up to Sugar Ray Robinson, but I’m here to put my own footprints in the sand.
I have learned from every fight and gotten better every fight as a pro and as a person. I have a great team now and they have only added to my craft.
I feel confident. I did all of the hard work in the gym with my team. This is the easy part. I can box with a blindfold on. That’s the one thing I know how to do – боротьба. У Суботу, all of my hard work is going to pay off.

Here is what the fighters had to say from House of Blues at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas on Wednesday:
Денні Гарсія
I’m just hungry for this fight. At the end of the day I have the passion for boxing, and I love the competition. That’s what motivates me and that’s what has motivated me to get back in there and get back on top. It all starts в суботу ніч.
I can’t worry about what [Брендон] is doing. At the end of the day I know he trained his heart out for this fight and this is an opportunity of a lifetime for him. Це великий бій для мене. I have to go in there and show that I’m one of the best fighters in the world. I just have to go in there and be Danny Garcia.
It’s great to be back here in Vegas. This is a big-fight atmosphere and it just motivates me. I feel good and I can’t wait to go in there and fight.
I’m going to do a little bit of everything, it just depends how I feel. I’m gonna bang, I’m gonna box. Я збираюся підтримати його. I’m going to do everything.
I try to knock everyone out in the first round. I’ll go and get that check. Twelve rounds or less. I’d like to get it done in under eight or six. But if not I’ll go 12 раундів. I have a great team and I’ve been training hard.
I don’t blame Keith Thurman for not wanting to fight me again. I wouldn’t want to fight me two times in row. My journey and my superstardom start again в суботу ніч. My job then is to show the work and that I’m still one of the superstars of this sport.
“Я 29 years old and in the prime of my career. It starts now. I’m ready to get back on track.
I represent Philly wherever I go. I represent all Latinos all around the world. When you’re a world champion boxer you represent everyone around the world.
He likes to bang…давай зробимо це. I feel like I’m the stronger man and there’s no need to back up. If that’s what it takes to get the job done.
Брендон Ріос
“Я готовий. I’ve been training really hard and I’m focused and dedicated to the boxing game. In the past I was immature and just being a kid and being a dork and just going with heart and ballsthat’s what I was doing it with. But now I want to get back to the top and I know what it takes to get there.
I don’t care what the critics say because at the end of the day that’s what they are, just critics. It’s all good. I can tell you right now I’m in shape. Я вже у вазі.
Everyone knows the way I fight. Going all out is my style. I’ll walk through brick walls to get the victory. Everyone will see в суботу night the new and improved Bam Bam.
Think about why I looked like [crap] після мого останнього бою. I’ve been through wars after wars and wars in my previous fights, and that takes a toll on your body. It happens. And I realized it and I took a step back and I wasn’t doing it right with dieting and training. I was doing it with heart and balls.
Now I feel rejuvenated and fresh. So you will see the new and improved Brandon. I feel young and not war-shot, or whatever you guys want to call it. I want to go out there and prove everyone wrong. I’m going to prove every one of you wrong. There’s going to be a smile on my face when I win this fight and I will put up my middle finger to all of you.
Danny’s a strong fighter and he has power in both hands. He’s a great counter-puncher. One thing I like is he doesn’t move or run, he likes to bang it out, and that suits my style better. But if he does run, we’ll be ready for that too. I sparred with young guys, так що я готовий.
Thanks to all of you guys for calling me out, and calling me a cherry, or whatever. Я люблю це. It’s all good. That’s the chip on my shoulder I got. I’m not a cherry, I might be a wild berry, but I’m not a cherry.
DAVID Benavidez
The preparation we had for this camp was amazing. Three months in training camp, we made a lot of changes for this fight and we’re ready to go in there and take care of business.
Winning the title changed my confidence but it changed my work too. Now I know everybody is gunning for my title and I don’t want to let it go. All the work and sacrifice it took for me to get thisI’m not going to let it go.
“Я відчуваю себе дуже сильним. The weight is good. I feel amazing and you guys are going to see it comeСубота.
I don’t think Gavril can do any better than he did in the last fight. He’s a one trick pony and he doesn’t have many tricks left, he’s getting old. We’ve been working on a lot of different styles for this fight and I feel more than ready.
I’m very motivated. I stayed very dedicated to this training camp. I’m ready to go in there and play no games. I’m going to do what I say and I’m going to knock Gavril out.
I feel I could have done better in the first fight. Having everybody tell me Gavril should have won and him talking a lot of smack, it’s the motivation and drive that I needed to train the way I did in this camp.
The sickness during the first fight took a lot out of me but my mentality is that I’m a warrior and I’m always going to push through it no matter what. На цей раз, we didn’t have any injuries or sickness so I can’t wait to put on a show в суботу.
This is the first time I’ve really had a chip on my shoulder. All the hard work it took for me to get this belt, and people say it was just given to me? No way, I’m going to go in there and show why I’m the youngest champion in the super middleweight division.
I want to become the best in the division. I want to earn every victory and fight the best. I would love to fight the World Boxing Super Series winner. I’ll be ready for anybody. I worked so hard to get this, nobody can take it from me.
I’m thinking it will be a knockout around Round 5. It’s going to be a combination of the body and chin. It’s not really looking for the knockout, it’s just setting it up. I’m not going in just throwing haymakers, but I’ll set it up and if it comes, it will come in spectacular fashion.
Рональд Гаврил
I trained a little bit different this time. I had way more time than the first fight to prepare. Last time was four weeks, this time I had a full 10 тижнів. I have done a lot of rounds of sparring and a lot of work related to this fight.
I learn after every fight. From the first fight against Benavidez, I learned even more because it was a tough, tight fight.
His people tried to make him a superstar before he fought me. I don’t know what people said after the first fight, but they should wait until after the rematch. I’m the stronger fighter.
The difference in this fight is going to be who boxes smarter. I feel I’m the smarter fighter because if I need to box, I box; if I need to put pressure, I put pressure. I can adapt.
I think this is going to be the fight of the year. It’s going to be special. The fans should all come see this fight because it’s going to be amazing with two warriors.
I’m not looking for a knockout. Я шукаю, щоб виграти кожен раунд. But I also don’t want to leave it in the judgeshands like last time, таким чином, ми побачимо, що станеться Субота.
I’m ready to win. It would be a dream come true. This is why I came here to America from Romania.
YORDENIS UGAS
We are both good fighters. But I am ready to put on the fight of the night for the fans and I will be victorious.
I’m more than ready to get back in the ring. I know what’s at stake. This is a title eliminator and it is the biggest fight of my career. I’m ready to get even better and show the world that I’m ready to be at that top tier of boxing.
Because of the intensity of this fight, I think it has the potential to be the fight of the night. This is going to shine over all the other fights.
RAY ROBINSON
Training camp was perfect. My team did everything to prepare me for this fight. I dotted every ‘Iand crossed every ‘T’ за цей бій. This was one of the best camps I’ve had and I’m excited to get in the ring в суботу.
Carrying Sugar Ray’s name is obviously a pleasure. Growing up, I had a lot of pressure on myself with my name being Ray Robinson. Sometimes I think I even lost fights because I put too much pressure on myself having that name. So now, I make sure I don’t put too much pressure on myself.
This is the type of fight that I roll out of bed for. You get tired of fighting regular guys. I’m an old school fighterI love fighting guys that look good on paper and nobody knows who’s going to win and it’s up to his camp and my camp. I haven’t been this excited for a fight in a long time.
I expect hell. That’s how I’ve been preparing. If it’s anything less than that, he’ll be sorry. That’s how I’ve been traininglike we’re fighting for a world title. I’m going to bring all the hardship I’ve had in my life into this fight в суботу ніч.
I’m an old school fighter. I’ll fight people in their grandma’s back yard if I have to. Це не має значення, хто я борюся. I’ll just do it Kimbo Slice-style. Once we conquer Субота, we are supposed to fight Errol Spence and even if that doesn’t happen, we’re looking for a world title. Еррол Спенс, (Кит) Турман, Я готовий до рок-.
Every time we put the gloves on, we want to do something special. Especially with this fight being on SHOWTIME, we just made sure we prepared the right way. But it doesn’t matter if it’s on TV or not, we still have to put on a good fight.
Each fight that I have is a stepping stone in my career. This is no different just because it’s in Vegas. I’m not going to put too much pressure on myself and blow this up and make it bigger than what it needs to me. Vegas, the crowds, the lightsthat’s all cool and dandy but at the end of the day I still have to do my job.
