Vao haingana, Wilder showed his talents in front of the camera filming the fight commercial for his highly anticipated showdown. The spot can be watched ETO through Wilder’s social media channels, and will premiere on television during tonight’s Thursday Night Football game between the Minnesota Vikings and Washington Redskins on FOX beginning at 8:00 p.m. SY.

“Working with FOX has been a blessing to my career and I’m looking forward to my first FOX Sports PBC Pay-Per-View,” Said Wilder. “We got the job done and I think the commercial we made is going to be great for the promotion. We put a lot of time, hard work and effort into it and I’m looking forward to it coming to fruition.

“For it to air on Thursday Night Football with millions of people watching is a great thing for the promotion. It means the world to me to give the fans this kind of excitement leading up to the fight. I’m very grateful for where I am in my career and I can’t wait to take advantage of this opportunity.”

Even with the big fight commitments, Wilder has flourished during training camp in Tuscaloosa, Alabama as he prepares to be primed when the first bell rings on November 23.

“Camp has been going amazing,” Said Wilder. “I haven’t reached my full potential or peaked in camp yet. We’re still pressing and everything is moving smoothly and on schedule. I’m feeling good and I’m looking good as well.

“I’m working on throwing a lot of jabs and countering. I know that Ortiz likes to counter as well. I’ve been in there with him before. I understand what he wants to do and I can recognize certain weaknesses we’re looking to exploit. It’s going to be a good fight while it lasts. Everyone knows what to expect from Deontay Wilder. I don’t have time to play games and I don’t get paid for overtime.”

Always one to find ways to push his training and his overall physical fitness level, Wilder has incorporated swimming and scuba diving into his conditioning program.

“For those that don’t know, I’m a certified scuba diver,” Said Wilder. “I enjoy it and I’ve been doing it for a few years now. It gives me relaxation and helps keep pressure off the muscles in my body. It helps my body tremendously. It’s also strengthening my legs and expanding my lungs so that I have more stamina. Water is great for exercise and I love it.”

Las Vegas(Oktobra 22, 2019) – Tsy Mety Resy fiakaran'ny kintanaBrandon “The Heartbreaker” Figueroawill make the first defense of his WBA Super Bantamweight Titleagainst former championJolay Ceja while undefeated Mexican power-puncherLuis NeryadyEmmanuel Rodríguezin a matchup of former bantamweight champions on Saturday, Novambra 23 in FOX Sports PBC Pay-Per-View action live from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.

The pay-per-view event is headlined by boxing’s longest reigning heavyweight world championDeontay “The Bronze ainy miditra” Wilderdefending his WBC title in a rematch against once-beaten Cuban sluggerLuis “Mpanjaka Kong” Ortiz. Three-division champion“Horohoron-tany” Santa Cruz will seek a title in another division in the co-main event when he takes onMiguel “Ny Michoacán” Flowers for the WBA Super Featherweight Championship as part of the pay-per-view action beginning at 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT.

“With these two all-action matchups added, the November 23 card is shaping up to deliver another memorable night of excitement on FOX Sports PBC Pay-Per-View,” hoy i Tom Brown, Filohan'ny TGB Promotions. “In addition to the Wilder vs. Ortiz rematch and the Santa Cruz vs. Flores title fight, one of the 122-pound division’s hottest young stars Brandon Figueroa will make his first title defense against a very tough opponent in former champion Julio Ceja. Rounding out the night is Mexican knockout artist Luis Nery and tough former champion Emmanuel Rodríguez, who will be sure to kick off the pay-per-view in style with another classic in the Mexico vs. Puerto Rico rivalry.”

The 22-year-old Figueroa (20-0, 15 Kos) will look to make the first defense of his super bantamweight championship in his fourth fight of 2019. He knocked out Moises Flores in January on FS1 and won an interim super bantamweight title in April on FOX by stopping Yonfrez Parejo. Representing Weslaco, Texas, Brandon, the younger brother of former world champion Omar, has a seven-fight knockout streak that he brings into the ring on November 23, having most recently stopped Javier Nicolas Chacon with an exciting fourth-round knockout in an FS1 main event in August. He was subsequently elevated to full champion by the WBA.

“This is probably going to be the biggest test of my career in the first defense of my title against a solid fighter like Ceja,” Said Figueroa. “To be fighting on pay-per-view of the Wilder-Ortiz II undercard at MGM Grand is a dream come true. I’ve been working towards this moment my whole life. I attended Pacquiao vs. Thurman in July and the crowd was electric that night. I told myself while watching that fight ringside that I couldn’t wait to fight at MGM on a similar card, and now look at where we are. Ceja might have lost against Rigondeaux, but he put on a great fight and I know he’s going to come forward and brawl with me on November 23.”

Fighting out of Tlalnepantla, Meksika, Eyebrow (32-4, 28 Kos) will look to rebound from a loss to Guillermo Rigondeaux on FOX in June, when he was stopped in round eight while leading on all three judges’ scorecards. The 26-year-old knocked out Hugo Ruiz in 2015 to win an interim title before eventually being elevated to the full champion. While he lost the rematch to Ruiz, Ceja put together wins in two of his next three fights heading into the Rigondeaux bout.

“This is a great opportunity and I plan to win the world title again on November 23,” said Ceja. “I know what it takes to win and I will have the best training of my career for this fight. I hope Brandon Figueroa is prepared for fireworks. This title is coming back to Mexico for my country, my pride and my people.”

Nery (30-0, 24 Kos) is a power puncher who has stopped his last 11 opponents and 15 ny farany 16. The 24-year-old southpaw from Tijuana, Mexico will be making his third appearance on a FOX Sports PBC Pay-Per-View this year. He scored a dominant stoppage victory over McJoe Arroyo on the March event in Arlington, Texas and returned on the July 20 show to stop former champion Juan Carlos Payano. He scored a TKO victory over Shinsuke Yamanaka to win the bantamweight world title in 2018.

“I’m excited for another opportunity to perform on the biggest stage and show that I’m the best bantamweight in the world,” said Nery. “Rodríguez is a tough competitor and he will help bring out my best on November 23. Mexico and Puerto Rico have a storied rivalry in this sport and I intend to make my mark in history with a spectacular win.”

The 27-year-old Rodríguez (19-1, 12 Kos) will also look to put himself back in position to reclaim a 118-pound belt with a statement win on November 23. Fighting out of Vega Baja, Puerto Rico, Rodríguez won the IBF Bantamweight World Title with a unanimous decision victory over Paul Butler in 2018 and defended it successfully against then-unbeaten Jason Moloney. He most recently was stopped by unbeaten champion Naoya Inoue in their May title bout.

“Switching opponents is no problem for me since we always train for different fighting styles,” said Rodríguez, who had previously been scheduled to face former champion Rau’shee Warren before Warren withdrew due to injury. “My Puerto Rican and Mexican people want to see a great fight and that’s what they will have on November 23. I know what Nery brings to the table and I’m ready for that. We are confident in victory and that in 2020 I will be crowned world champion again.”

Toy izao ny nambaran'ireo mpiady tamin'ny asabotsy teo avy amin'ny Lexus Club ao amin'ny STAPLES Center:

DEONTAY Wilder

“Lasa indray izao. Ny hany fomba hanaovana lalao miverina dia ny hisian'ny ady voalohany mampientam-po. Raha vao nifankahita tamin'io lehilahy io aho teo amin'ny peratra, nahavariana sy nampahery tokoa ny niatrika mpiady mahay toy izany. Tena traikefa lehibe ho ahy izany ary voninahitra ho ahy ny niatrika azy.

“Io ady voalohany io dia fitsapana ho ahy mba hampisehoana ahy hoe aiza ny haavon'ny fahaizako amin'ny fizarana mavesatra. Izy no bogeyman tao amin'ny diviziona mavesatra noho ny antony. Hatramin'izao, mbola tsy miady aminy izy ireo noho ny antony.

“Izaho no tsara indrindra eto an-tany. Aho sy nolazaiko izany teo aloha aho hoe izany indray. Mino an'izany aho ary noporofoiko izany. Efa noporofoiko fa diso ny olona maro ary mbola tsy maintsy manao izany aho. Izany dia manome ahy ny antony manosika sy ny finiavana hanohy.

“Namorona fifamatorana tamin'i Ortiz niady voalohany aho noho ny zanakay vavy. Raim-pianakaviana roa izahay no tsy maintsy niady ho an'ny fianakavianay. Tsy misy fahatsapana tsara kokoa noho ny mandeha miady amin'ny gladiatera hafa.

“Tsy nisy na inona na inona nianarako momba ny tenako tamin'ny ady voalohany, fa fanamafisana ny zavatra efa fantatro. Fantatro izay azoko atao ary mino ny tenako aho. Tsy nahatsiaro ho nanaporofo na inona na inona ho an'ny tenako aho, nanaporofo tamin'ny hafa fotsiny izany.

“Mafana fo amin'izany izahay ary tianay ny hanome ny mpankafy ny ady tsara indrindra azo atao. Mbola hanao izany indray izahay satria tsy handao anao mihitsy aho raha tsy manana fotoana mahafinaritra sy mampientanentana anao. Raha mbola tsy nahita lalao ady totohondry ianao taloha, Izaho no olona ho avy hijery. Raha te hahita fientanentanana ianao, io no tolona hatao. Izany no ady amin'ny filaminana.

“Tompondaka marina aho. Ny tena tompon-daka dia afaka mandeha toy ny miresaka izany, ary mandeha toy ny miresaka azy foana aho. On Novambra 23 Manantena ny hahita ny olona rehetra aho na hanafatra izany amin'ny pay-per-view, satria tsy afaka miandry aho.”

LUIS ORTIZ

“Tena faly aho manana ity fahafahana ity amin'ny lalao miverina. Nanana fahasahiana i Wilder handray ny lalao miverina ary izany no ampahany lehibe amin'ny antony mahatonga izany. Faly aho amin'ity ady ity ary hanararaotra izany aho.

“Tsy misy fialan-tsiny avy amiko. Tapitra ny ady voalohany. Miroso amin'ity ady ity isika izao. Hahazo ny fandresena aho. Misy zavatra hafa atao, fa eo amin'ny peratra no ho tapa-kevitra izany rehetra izany.

“Mifantoka amin'ity ady ity aho ary ity ady ity ihany. Tsy olona be teny aho, fa ny fahafahana dia eto ary efa natokana ho azy. Lasa izao.

“Ny mpiady iray dia tsy mandao ny iraka ataony. Ny ho tompondaka eran-tany no asa nanirahana ahy. Niofana mafy aho hatramin'ny fahareseko ary hifarana amin'ny Novambra izany rehetra izany 23.

“Tsy hanao fahadisoana mitovy amin'ny nataoko tamin'ny ady farany aho tamin'ity indray mitoraka ity. Hiomana bebe kokoa aho, mahery setra kokoa ary manana bebe kokoa amin'ny zavatra rehetra. Mampiakatra izany rehetra izany aho.

“Tsy nisy antony tsy naharesy ahy tamin'ny ady voalohany, dia izay ihany. Fantatray fa ho lany tamingana ny iray taminay. Manana izany fihetseham-po izany ihany koa aho amin'ny lalao miverina. Tsy mandeha io ady io 12 fihodinana.

“Mila volana Novambra aho 23 mba ho tonga eto aloha kokoa. Vonona ny hiditra ao amin'ny peratra aho ary hanao ny asa ary ho lasa tompon-daka eran-tany amin'ny lanja mavesatra.”

Leo Santa Cruz

“Miasa mafy amin'ny ady rehetra aho ary hitovy amin'izany ady izany. Ity fahafahana ity dia tonga hiady amin'ny anaram-boninahitra 130 kilao ary faly aho hiady amin'izany. Te ho tompondaka eran-tany amin’ny fizarana efatra aho.

“Ho hitako izay tsapako 130. Raha matanjaka aho dia tsapako fa hisy ady bebe kokoa any. Ny tanjoko amin’izao fotoana izao dia ny hahazo ity tompondaka eran-tany ity. Izay no ifantohako.

“Tena faly sy faly aho manana ity fahafahana ity ho tompondaka eran-tany amin'ny fizarana efatra. Ny ho tompondaka eran-tany fotsiny no tanjoko fony aho nanomboka ady totohondry. Nofinofy lehibe kokoa ny handeha fanefatra.

“Miguel Flores dia mpiady henjana ary tsy manao ambanin-javatra azy aho. Fantatro fa ho ady mafy izany. Ho avy amin'izay rehetra ananany izy. Io no fahafahana amin'ny androm-piainany.

“Tena mazoto aho fa ity no anaram-boninahitra eran-tany voalohany nataoko. Zavatra lehibe ho ahy ity. Hanampy ahy ho tsaroana ho iray amin'ireo mpiady Meksikana tsara indrindra izany ary izany no tanjoko.

“tena manan-danja, hanome ny mpankafy fampisehoana mahafinaritra amin'ny alin'ny ady. Mahavariana ny maha-hetsika miaraka amin'i Deontay Wilder. Manolotra fampisehoana mahafinaritra foana izy, fa ny asako dia ny manome fientanentanana bebe kokoa ho an'ny rehetra.”

MIGUEL FLOWERS

“Milaza izy ireo fa tsy mahazo vintana faharoa amin'ny fiainana ianao, fa mahazo izany aho ary tena mankasitraka. Misy antony ny zava-drehetra. Ity ady ity dia natao hitranga ary mikasa ny hanararaotra izany aho.

“Ny hoe amin'ny 130 na 126 tsy misy dikany amiko rehefa miady amin'i Leo, mbola ilay lehilahy ihany. Nanomboka ny asany tamin'ny 118 na izany na tsy izany ary efa tao an-tsaiko hatry ny ela ny fomba handreseko azy.

“Ny tetika dia ny handresy azy amin'ny zavatra rehetra. Mihoatra azy, misoroka azy ary afaka manao izany rehetra izany. Manao tsara ny zava-drehetra izy ary veterana. Fantatro fa misy tetika ao ambanin'ny tanany izy, fa mila mivonona amin'izany isika ary manana zavatra vonona hiverenana aminy.

“Ity dia dingana lehibe kokoa noho ny hetsika miaraka amin'ny fiadiana ny tompondaka eran-tany amin'ny lanja mavesatra any Las Vegas. Nilamina tsara ho ahy ny zava-drehetra. Tsy izany no toe-tsaiko rehefa nitranga ilay ratra, fa izao dia misy dikany daholo.

“Te ho afaka ny ho lehilahy aho. Amin'ny fikapohana an'i Leo, Lasa lehilahy aho. Asantsika roa ny mamadika ny olona rehetra ho mpino. Rehefa afaka izany, ady, ho fantatry ny rehetra fa ady lehibe izany.

“Ny fifantohanay dia amin'i Leo Santa Cruz. Novambra 23 izay rehetra ao an-tsaiko. Betsaka ny olona tsy mahafantatra ny fahaizako amin'ny ady totohondry sy ny hafetsahan'ny peratra. Hanao fahagagana izy ireo.”

ivelan'ny peratra, Wilder sy Ortiz dia mizara fifamatorana iraisana-izy ireo samy nandrisika ny hiady ho an’ny zanany vavy. Zanaka vavimatoan’i Wilder, Naieya, teraka niaraka tamin'ny spina bifida, nanosika an'i Wilder handray anjara amin'ny ady totohondry mba handoavana azy fandaniana ara-pahasalamana. Ny zanakavavin'i Ortiz, Lismercedes, manana aretina hoditra maharary antsoina hoe epidermolysis bullosa, izay miteraka fanaintainana amin'ny hoditra ary Ortiz dia niasa mba hanentanana ny.

“Tsy maintsy manome an'i Deontay Wilder betsaka aho crédit amin'ny fandraisana ity ady ity satria mampiseho fa manana fon'ny marina izy Tompon-daka,” Said Ortiz. “Tsy matahotra ny handray loza izy ady, satria ndao ho marina, io no ady mampidi-doza indrindra ho azy. Raha ny hevitro, izy no lanja mavesatra tsara indrindra eran-tany mandra-pahatongan'ny olona mamely azy, ary izany indrindra no hataoko amin'ny volana Novambra 23 ao amin'ny MGM Grand Garden Arena ao amin'ny FOX Sports PBC Pay-Per-View. ‘King Kong’ tonga any Las Vegas!”

Tamin'ny Novambra 23, ho hitanao ny dikan-teny tsara indrindra amin'ny tenako rehefa mikasa ny ho amin'ny endrika tsara indrindra amin'ny tenako aho Fiainana, miaraka amin'ny tanjona ho tompondaka eran-tany, ary inona no fomba tsara kokoa hanaovana izany noho ny any Las Vegas ao amin'ny MGM Grand.

tony penecale’s Box Fan Expo Ringside report

Leave a comment

By: Tony Penecale

Quick video intro here:

https://www.facebook.com/TornadoTP/videos/10156003723726436/

Last weekend’s middleweight title showdown between Canelo Alvarez and Daniel Jacobs also featured the annual Box Fan Expo, held at the Las Vegas Convention Center. The amazing memorabilia on display and live amateur boxing action complemented an array of past and present world champion fighters available for quick meet and greets.

As a lifelong boxing fan, it was a shame that I only had a little over two hours to spend at the event before heading back to the T-Mobile Arena for the start of the undercard bouts. The time I was able to spend was thoroughly enjoyable. The prices were reasonable to meet these fistic legends and have a few moments to talk and take photos. The average $20 -$25 price for a photo op was significantly less than what would have been lost at the casino in a single roulette spin.

James Toney was there in a suit, proving that he can even make plaid look stylish. For a guy known for a surly nature, he was very accommodating and mentioned he will be in Philadelphia for a live show on June 7 and hopes to see me there.

In the booth next over was Hall-of-Fame broadcaster Al Berstein, who I had the privilege of interviewing in 2011. When told of my admiration of his classy work and being a fan since his days with Barry Tompkins on ESPN’s Thursday Night Fights, he was humble and appreciative.

The line to meet Roy Jones Jr. was long but worth the wait. While the time to talk with Roy was short, I was able to mention what an honor it was to meet one of the greatest performers of my generation and how I sat only a few feet from him when he was on the Creed II set.

While the line to meet the legendary Sugar Ray Leonard was exceptionally long, you could see he was truly enjoying himself, flashing that million-dollar smile and doing his famous fists-raised photo op with fans. Unfortunately, with time running short, I did not have the opportunity to meet one of my favorite fighters growing up. I would have loved to have shown him a photo when I was four-years-old, swinging away on the Sugar Ray Leonard punching bag I was given.

A few feet away was one of Sugar Ray’s most-famous rivals, the great Thomas “Hitman” Hearns. While the Hitman has shown some slowing as he has aged, he still proves to be an imposing figure, but he now replaces that fearsome glare with a warm smile.

Also coming up to meet Thomas Hearns was current IBF Super-Featherweight Champion Tevin Farmer, a fellow Philadelphian, who I’ve had the opportunity to watch grow from a 7-4-1 journeyman boxer to a 29-4-1 izao tontolo izao tompon-daka.

My visit wouldn’t be complete without stopping to see “The Pazmanian Devil” Vinny Paz, always one of my favorite action fighters and charismatic personalities. Instead of a handshake, he greeted me with a big hug and expressed disappointment that my dad didn’t join me at the expo.

In the short time frame, it was impossible to meet all of the great fighters there including Michael Spinks, Riddick Bowe, Errol Spence, Anthony Dirrell, and Earnie Shavers. With it being Cinco de Mayo weekend, the lines for some of the Mexican legends wrapped around the convention center floor. Mikey Garcia, Marco Antonio Barerra, Erik Morales, and Juan Manuel Marquez all proved to be exceptionally popular. But nothing compared to the roar of the pro-Mexican crowd when the great Julio Cesar Chavez was introduced.

Attending this event was a dream come true and I could only wish I had more time to spend at the event. Everything was so professionally done and those in attendance were beyond accommodating.

Kudos to Box Fan Expo for such an exceptional event.

Listen to our radio show episode from earlier this week for more insight from Tony “The Tornado” Penecale about this event.

Los Angeles (Febroary 14, 0219) – There was no love lost on Valentine’s Day in Los Angeles as fighters competing on Saturday’s Premier Boxing Champions on FOX and FOX Deportes exchanged words and went face-to-face at the final press conference before their respective showdowns this Saturday night at Microsoft Theater at L.A. Live.

WBA Featherweight Tompon-daka Eran-tany Santa Cruz Leo will defend his title against Mexico’s Rafael Rivera in the main event of the show. Coverage begins at 8 p.m. ET / 5 p.m. PT and will feature an exciting clash between contenders Omar Figueroa aryJohn Molina Jr., plus unbeaten prospects Sebastian Fundora ary Donnie Marshall going toe-to-toe.

Tickets for the show, which is promoted by TGB Promotions and Ringstar Sports, dia amin'ny amidy ankehitriny, and can be purchased at AXS.com.

The event also featured an appearance by former world champion and Southern California fan-favorite Fernando Vargas. Here is what the press conference participants had to say Thursday from the Conga Room:

Leo Santa Cruz

“We were getting ready for Miguel Flores, but in the gym you have to always be ready for any kind of style. We had been already been working with sparring partners who brawl, and that’s what we expect from Rafael Rivera.

“I knew immediately that Rivera was a good opponent. He’s young and hungry and that makes him dangerous. He can take punches, so we’re ready for 12 fihodinana. We’re going to be smart in this fight because we know what Rivera can do.

“Seeing my dad going through cancer treatment has been very tough. He motivates me to go to the gym and train hard, because I know if he sees me working hard, it will motivate him as well.

“I’m just looking to go out there, give a great fight and help my name continue to grow so that I can fight the best.

“I love fighting and training here in Los Angeles. It gives me a chance to be with my family more. When I have them here, it makes me train harder. I do all of this for them and their future.

“If I can get this win, we want to unify the belts or make the third fight against Carl Frampton. Raha tsy, we will go to 130 pounds and seek a title in a new weight class.”

Rafael RIVERA

“I’ve stepped in late before to a big fight. I’m always ready when it comes. Expect a surprise come Saturday night.

“I know that I have everything it takes to bring this title back to Tijuana. We’ve trained hard and had these last four weeks to focus in on breaking Leo down.

“I’m prepared for anything Leo brings into the ring. Everyone knows he’s very tough and throws a lot of punches, but I believe I am the faster fighter and I can hurt him with counters.

“This is the best opportunity I’ve had, going up against a great champion like Leo. I’m ready for fight and a great show for the fans.”

Omar Figueroa

“Given our styles, there’s no way this is going to go the distance. I think this is going to be an early night and I’m planning on having my hand raised.

“The layoff didn’t affect me against Robert Guerrero, so I don’t see why it will affect me now. That’s why I keep my style consistent. The only difference is the character across from me in the ring. This fight will depend on how John wants it to go, because I’m coming to fight.

“I’m just looking to get in the ring and take advantage of this opportunity I’ve been given. I’ve made changes that have made my whole game so much easier. It’s a totally different mentality that I have now.

“Toby Training dia lehibe. I’ve made a lot of changes in my lifestyle and I’m dedicated 100 percent to boxing. Things have never been better.”

JOHN Molina JR.

“It’s time to fight. The hard work is done and the time is now. Talk is cheap. Ny Asabotsy alina, we’ll get down.

“I’ve been down this road before. I was never given lofty expectations. There’s no pressure here. I think Omar’s style will accommodate mine and make it a fun fight for the fans.

“Whenever I fight, it’s going to be exciting. You can say the same thing about Omar. I’m prepared for any version of Omar. Just like any other fight. I can’t wait until Saturday night to get in there and do what I do best.

“I’ve put everything into this camp, like I’m sure my opponent has. That’s what we owe to the fans and it’s going to come to fruition Saturday night.”

SEBASTIAN FUNDORA

“I expect a good fight. He’s an undefeated fighter and I hope to give the fans a great show and walk away victorious.

“We’re totally focused on this fight. I just train and everything else is out of the way. I trained hard and I’m going to do my thing like always.

“I’m still growing as a fighter. We’re getting better with every camp and every fight. It’s good that we keep fighting quality opponents, because it helps accelerate that process.

“Hopefully we’re going to display a lot more boxing and technique in this fight. I think Marshall is going to come inside and attack the body. I think if I’m able to stop him, it will be from the boxing skills that I show.”

DONNIE MARSHALL

“I’m ready to dominate the fight like I always do. That’s the only thing on my mind. I don’t care about his height, record or anything else. I’m coming to dominate.

“I’ve never been concerned with the height of Fundora. We sparred with some good strong southpaws in Florida including Yamaguchi Falcao. Then we went to Las Vegas for the second half of training camp and worked with some top prospects. I’m more than prepared for anything.

“Every fight is a make or break fight. I’ve trained against top fighters and been all around the country in different gyms. I’ve only been pro two and a half years. Aho tanora 30. I’m going to announce myself on Saturday in a big way.”

RICHARD Schaefer, Chairman and CEO of Ringstar Sports

“This weekend is another example why Los Angeles is such a great fight town. We’re going to have a fantastic crowd at Microsoft Theater at L.A. Live on Saturday night. I think that speaks to the strength of this city as a boxing town, and the strength of this card. This is top to bottom one of the best cards I can remember here in Los Angeles.

“The tripleheader on FOX and FOX Deportes has three fights that want to steal the night. We will see which fight and which fighter everyone will be talking about after Saturday. There are definitely some fights on this card that have ‘Fight of the Year’ written all over them.

“We are committed to continuing to bring the best and biggest fights to the fans here in Los Angeles, because Los Angeles is the fight capital of the world again.”

The fighters will go face-to-face at a press conference on Thursday that will feature former two-time world champion and Southern California favorite Fernando Vargas. Izao no ny mpiady tsy maintsy hoe Alarobia:
 
Rafael RIVERA
 
“When I got this opportunity, Tsy nieritreritra aho indroa. I was training and ready and I wanted this challenge. I’m here to make the most of it.
 
“Like I always say to my fans, be ready for a great fight. I’m looking to make this very exciting and interesting. The belt is coming back with me to Tijuana.
 
“I never look for the knockout, but I’ve still been able to get them. Vonona aho, so I hope he’s also ready to give the fans a great fight.
 
“This is a big challenge for me. I’m coming for that world title. I want to prove how good I am and become a world champion for my fans in Tijuana.
 
“I love to face the best fighters out there. Leo is a fighter who throws a lot of punches. We’ve seen it and we’ve studied it. But I don’t think he’s very fast. I’m faster than he is and I have to take advantage of that. I have to counter him when he comes in and do my job.”
 
Omar Figueroa
 
“I’m looking to come back strong against Molina. My style is always to go in there for the knockout and give the fans a great show. The sooner we get him out of there, the better.
 
“We know that John Molina is a tough fighter. He’s been in there with some of the best in the world and he’s given them problems. We expect him to bring a great fight.
 
“We’ve seen Molina box before and make things difficult for certain fighters. I’m going to try to make the fight my style of fight and we’ll see if he obliges. Once he feels the power, he might choose to box.
 
“I don’t think this goes past six rounds. I’m confident about that. We’re going to be ready for anything Molina brings.
 
“I’ve been doing a lot of healing physically, ara-tsaina sy ara-panahy. I’m looking to show on Saturday that I’ve got everything together.”
 
JOHN Molina JR.
 
“I feel excited and confident. Maybe overconfident, but I am ready. We did our job in the gym and now we are ready for the fight.
 
“I have to expect the best version of Omar Figueroa. He is a smart kid. I don’t know if he is trying to entice me into a war right away. I don’t know what his game plan is, but we will find out on Saturday.
 
“Fans need to tune in on FOX and FOX Deportes February 16. This is going to be a war and I believe we’re going to steal the show.
 
“This isn’t my first go around against a Joel Diaz-trained fighter. I did it before with Ruslan Provodnikov and now it is my job to beat Figueroa.
 
“I am not affected by being considered the underdog. Every one of my fights, fans make money. I think Provodnikov I was 11-1. When you become a veteran in the sport, you stop worrying about stuff like that. Talk is cheap.
 
“There is a lot at stake for me. I don’t feel pressure, but there is a lot at stake. Every fight of my career I have something to prove and Saturday is no different.”
 
DONNIE MARSHALL
 
“This is my first big opportunity and I’m ready to take full advantage. I’m going to show everybody where I’m at.
 
“I’m going to take it as it comes in the ring. We have a game plan, but I’m a creator in the ring. I create on the go. I’ll fit in where I can and go with the flow of the fight.
 
“The only challenge I see is his height. He’s obviously very tall at six-foot seven-inches. We know what we have to do to break him down. I don’t even really see the height as a challenge, because I spar with heavyweights all the time.
 
“Aho 10-0, but I only started boxing when I was 20, about 10 taona maro lasa izay. I don’t have the time like young prospects who want to play around, I want to fight any and everybody I can right now.”
 
KARLOS BALDERAS
 
“I feel excited and anxious to get back in the ring. I’m ready physically and mentally. I know that my opponent won’t be ready for the heat I’m going to throw at him.
 
“This year I’m looking to be busy. I want to be back in the ring in April if everything goes well on Saturday. After this fight I’m going to move to Los Angeles and add trainer Roberto Alcazar to my team. He’s had a lot of experience in big fights and I think he’s going to be a great help. I can really understand clearly what he’s trying to teach me.
 
“I’m going to show everyone that I’m the real deal once again. I’m going to prove why these fighters can’t make it through a fight with me. This year is all business for me.”

Los Angeles (Febroary 5, 2019) – WBA Featherweight Tompon-daka Eran-tany Santa Cruz Leo, one of Los Angeles’ most popular boxing stars, hosted a media workout at Fortune Gym in Hollywood Tuesday as he nears his primetime showdown againstRafael Rivera that headlines Premier Boxing Champions on FOX and FOX Deportes Saturday, Febroary 16 at Microsoft Theater at L.A. Live in Los Angeles.

Tickets for the show, which is promoted by TGB Promotions and Ringstar Sports, dia amin'ny amidy ankehitriny, and can be purchased at AXS.com.

Santa Cruz, who was joined by his father and trainer Jose Santa Cruz, showed off the skills that have made him a can’t-miss attraction. Santa Cruz was originally scheduled to face Miguel Flores, but he was replaced by Rivera after Flores suffered an injury in training.

Here is what the workout participants had to say Tuesday in Hollywood:

Leo Santa Cruz

“We kept our training camp going despite the change of opponent. We always train the same no matter who the opponent is.

“We spar against fighters who have every different kind of style, because the opponent could always bring something new to the ring. My dad tells me to always be prepared for any kind of style. We are ready for whatever the opponent brings into the ring.

“I’m always staying in shape whether I’m in the gym training for a fight or not. When they call us and tell us what the fight is, we’re always ready.

“I know that Rivera has fought some good opponents like Joseph Diaz and Joet Gonzalez, and he’s gone the distance with them. He’s given them tough battles. He’s shown that he’s a tough fighter who will leave everything in the ring.

“This isn’t going to be an easy fight. Rivera is tougher than people have given him credit for in the past. It motivates me to try to be the first to knock him out. If I have the opportunity for it, I’m going for it. Most important though, is to come out of there with the victory.

“Sometimes when my dad is having tough days dealing with the cancer, I want to stay at home with him, but he tells me to go to the gym and train hard. So I tell him that we’re going to work hard for him. We both motivate each other.

“(Kapila bitika Featherweight Tompon-daka) Gary Russell Jr. is the fight that I want. He beat me in the amateurs, but in the pros I get 12 fihodinana. I think that I can beat him.”

José Santa Cruz, Leo’s Father & Mpanazatra

“We didn’t worry too much about the opponent change. I don’t think it makes too much of a difference. Leo is going to be at his best and ready for whoever steps into that ring.

“We didn’t let the change effect our routine. We continued the same preparations as always so Leo is ready to fight. We respect every opponent too much to ever fall behind in conditioning.

“I think this is going to be a good fight. Leo is always very competitive and any time he can win a fight he knows it will be big for his career.

“Leo is 30-years-old right now and I think that he will be retired by 35. He has a lot left to accomplish in this sport and our team is going to keep pushing him to be the best that he can.”

RICHARD Schaefer, Mpitari-draharaha & Tale Jeneralin'ny Ringstar Sports

“Top to bottom this is just a great card. It’s going to be toe-to-toe action downtown at L.A. Live. It’s an affordable ticket at $30, and that gives you the chance to see one of the stars of the sport in a slugfest.

“Leo Santa Cruz always brings great action and drama when he enters the ring. You have to be on the edge of your seat during a Leo Santa Cruz fight and I expect nothing less next Saturday night. Rafael Rivera has nothing to lose in this fight, and that is the recipe for a tremendous showdown.

“Boxing at Microsoft Theater has caught on. That fight in January between Caleb Plant and Jose Uzcategui had a great atmosphere and it is just a beautiful place to watch the fights. Microsoft Theater is becoming the indoor ‘war grounds’ of boxing.”

TOM BROWN, Filohan'ny TGB Promotions

“Rafael Rivera put up a great fight against Joseph Diaz Jr., and he came back against Joet Gonzalez and lost a split-decision, but he really won that fight. Rivera should only have one loss on his record.

“Rivera is going into this fight with the same granite chin that he showed everyone against Diaz. He was prepared and ready when the call came for this fight. He’s a great replacement. Leo better be ready and not take him lightly.”
