"Des que era 15-0 I’ve been calling this guy out and he keeps making excuses. Seguirem endavant. Ell té dos dels cinturons i els dos tenim grans noms. És una baralla fàcil de fer i ho vull ".

 

 

 

Peterson, que va lluitar valentament contra el Spence més jove, respectat la decisió del seu entrenador per aturar la baralla, "Si em demana que lluitar un milió de persones, Ho faré. Si ell em demana que deixi de. Vaig a deixar de. Mai vaig a qüestionar la seva decisió. Sé que té els meus millors interessos en el cor ".

 

 

 

"Va ser molt dur, però si vostè sap Lamont, vostè sap que no anava a renunciar,", Va dir l'entrenador Barry Hunter. "Havia de detenir. Al final de la dia, aquest és el meu fill aquí. No hi ha res més valuós que el seu benestar. Si es tracta d'ell o guanyar, el recullo. Em preocupo per ell ".

Un segon punt de deducció i tornada des Fortuna va resultar costosa quan el dominicà va ser advertit i després penalitzat per colpejar Pasqua darrere del cap. Sense la deducció d'un punt, la lluita hagués estat anotat l'empat. Mentre Jr Pasqua. va ser lleugerament més ocupat, Fortuna va connectar els cops més potents.

"Va ser una baralla dura, És un ex campió del món per una raó,"Pasqua va dir Grey. "Hem fet que sigui difícil tractar de contrarestar punxó. Ell no estava tirant molt i fa que sigui difícil per a mi per perseguir aquest tipus al voltant.

 

 

 

“No vaig poder aconseguir el nocaut, però que es va emportar el triomf i això és tot el que importa. Jo sabia que anava a executar un cop que va sentir el meu poder. Només volia d'agafar tota la baralla ".

“Hem treballat per aquesta victòria. Va entrar en un tir segur i em va fer pagar,"Va dir Browne. "L'esquerra damunt del cap el va atrapar i que va ser el principi de la fi per a ell. Jo sabia que estava ferit.

 

 

 

“Necessito un títol mundial. Estic a punt per assumir qualsevol dels campions. No tinc cap preferència. Estic content d'haver ajuntat una altra gran actuació aquí a Barclays Center. Vaig a seguir millorant fins que es converteixen realment en el Sr.. Barclays Center ".

 

 

 

crèdit, qui va pujar a la divisió de pes lleuger per aquesta baralla, tingut dificultats per fer front amb la combinació de Browne de velocitat i potència en el seu camí a la segona pèrdua de la seva carrera professional.

 

 

 

"[Browne] és molt explosiu, felicitats a ell,” Said Ntetu. “és ràpid, és intel·ligent i jo no esperava que fos tan explosiva. Ell em va aconseguir amb el seu ganxo de dreta i una esquerra recta.

 

 

 

"Estava en forma suficient per lluitar per 10 rondes. Aquesta no és la meva classe de pes, però jo no vull posar excuses ".

 

 

 

En la baralla d'obertura de la SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING preliminars, invicte Adam Kownacki (17-0, 14 KOs) delivered a brutal knockout of Yago Kiladze (26-2, 18 KOs) a 2:08 of the sixth round of their heavyweight matchup. Kownacki, nascut a Lomza, Polònia, però lluitant fora de Brooklyn, Nova York, comptat amb el suport del seu públic local ja que constantment portava a sota Kiladze.

 

 

 

Kownacki va ser el més agressiu i precís dels dos combatents, aterratge 43 per cent dels seus cops de poder i 35 per cent del seu total de ponches, en comparació amb només 30 per cent i 18 per cent, respectivament, per Kiladze. Malgrat una hemorràgia nasal que va patir Kownacki a la primera ronda, el pes pesat polonès va començar aboqués sobre i el pneumàtic Kiladze amb una sèrie de ganxos i un-dues combinacions en la quarta ronda. La baralla plena d'acció va arribar a la seva fi quan Kownacki connectat a una combinació de dos ganxos i una mà dreta que va enviar Kiladze d'esquena en l'últim minut de la sisena ronda. Després d'un Kiladze atordit va tornar als seus peus, Shada àrbitre Murdaugh crida l'lluita pel suggeriment del metge de torn.

ERROL SPENCE JR.
“Aquesta baralla significa tot per a mi. I still have a chip on my shoulder. I want to be the last man standing. I want to beat the top fighters in my division. Lamont is the one standing in front of me, so it’s fight time.
I think it’s going to turn into a war. A lot of people have thought this would be an easy fight for me. But if you follow Lamont Peterson, you know this will be tough. He’s always in great shape and has a lot of skills. IT might be a dog fight and that’s what I wanted. He’s the guy who wanted to fight and I said of course. It’s going to be a rugged fight. Later on in the fights, he always gets rough and stands toe-to-toe.
There might not be a lot of talking and bad blood between us, but you know that the two of us always give a great fight for the fans.
I had to wait for my title defense and then I had a lot of guys not answer the call for this fight. I have a belt and I still have to call these other guys out. Lamont Peterson answered the call like a real fighter.
In a perfect world I’d be unifying with Keith Thurman this year. I’m going to fight three times this year though. You don’t get time back. I’m ready to strike now.
I’m just excited to fight. M'agrada lluitar. I can’t wait to be in front of those bright lights in front of the fans. Brooklyn is a great place to fight and my family from the area can come see me live. I can’t wait to display my skills.
A true champion can’t fight everybody who calls them out, it’s still a business. But a true champion fights other champions, especially when they’re available. You can’t avoid questions and try to delay a fight. You fight the next champion that’s available, that’s what a true champion does.
Lamont Peterson
When I got into boxing, I had goals. First I wanted to be a National Champion, then a world champion as a professional, but the ultimate goal is to be in the Hall of Fame. With that being my goal, I wouldn’t put myself in that conversation yet. With wins over a guy like Errol Spence and the other top welterweights, I think I’m right there in it. That’s my goal and I’ll give it my all to get there.
If you left it to me I’d fight every month. That’s how much I love the sport. I know a victory would help me get in the ring even more often. Sometimes if you lose at the top level, other top guys don’t want to take a chance against you. I can fix all of that this weekend
I don’t worry about any negativity. My resume is written in the history books. All I can do is respect the opinion of others and work hard to get this win.
I’m excited and looking forward to the skill level that’s going to be displayed this weekend. It’s going to be a rough fight for sure. But I look forward to the technique and skill level. Defense, offense and transitioning between the two. That’s the part of boxing that I love.
Errol even taking the Kell Brook fight was impressive to me. Most guys in his position take their time leading up to the first title shot, but he ended up fighting someone in his prime in his country. To will himself to that win was very impressive.
When you get to the big stages and those big fights, you have to win more than you lose. I think if I can win some big fights these next few years my career will be in a good place.
Robert Easter
I have no concerns fighting a southpaw. I made my last fight hard, but this time I’m going to use my reach, my feet and my speed to dominate.
I’m looking for a great performance. This is going to be the best Robert Easter the fans have ever seen. We prepared to dominate this fight.
Javier Fortuna is an accomplished fighter but I don’t know too much about him. I know what I came to do. I’m a world champion and everyone knows what I bring to the fight game. I won’t leave without my strap.
I’m ready to fight the best in this sport. I want to become the man at this weight and I know I have to beat the other champions to do that.
Boxing is all about showing you’re the best and fighting the best. I just want to fight these other champions in my weight class. I’m looking to stay healthy in 2018 and remain on top.
JAVIER FORTUNA
I have no excuses on Gener 20. I hope he doesn’t either. I will be taking that title to the Dominican Republic for my fans. I’ve been dreaming about it and I will take it.
I have the style and the skills to beat Robert Easter. I know how to make sure his height does not affect me at all. Everyone will see it on fight night.
I’ve prepared myself very well. I have a plan to win every round. If he’s able to stand there, I’m going to break him down round by round.
I am fighting for more than just myself and that is why I’ll be successful. I am going to prove that I’m truly one of the top fighters in the sport.
Robert Easter is a fighter I respect, but I believe I can defeat anyone in front of me. If he takes me lightly, it will go even worse for him. I’ve been training hard to make sure I’m at my absolute best on fight night.
A win would be great for my country, my fans and my family. Winning this title is everything for me. That’s why I’m here and I will not be stopped.
Derrick James, Entrenador de Spence
I started training Errol about nine years ago but I never really knew just how special he was until about a year or so into our training. I thought Olympics were definitely possible, because I didn’t want to look too far ahead. Now that we’re here, I think he can beat any of the top guys. I want him to be undisputed welterweight champion just like he wants to be.
I never worry about comparing Errol to other guys in the sport. He’s a hard puncher who breaks ribs and breaks faces. The longer the fight goes, the more pain he inflicts. I’ve never seen anybody who punches that hard.
I think Lamont knew when he moved up to welterweight that this fight would be a possibility. It’s time for us to go to work because I know Lamont and Barry Hunter are working on a game plan. They have a great team and I know Lamont will be ready for what we bring.
Barry Hunter, Entrenador de Peterson
We stay in the gym all the time. We didn’t have to deal with the weight monster this camp. Weight issue can really derail a camp leading up to a fight of this magnitude. We didn’t have to deal with any of that.
There are several different things in Errol’s arsenal that I think we can exploit. Errol will make adjustments though, so I think strategy will be a key in this fight.
Lamont has always been a coach’s dream. He’s the type of athlete that you would love to coach. He does everything a coach asks of him. He will train until he passes out. All he wants is to work hard and compete.
Lou DiBella, El president de DiBella Entertainment
This is a great night for boxing. The first January date of the year drums up a lot of excitement and we expect a great turnout en dissabte nit al Barclays Center. It’s going to be a great crowd and an exciting night from top to bottom.
“Errol Spence Jr. is one of the best young fighters in the world testing himself against another great fighter in Lamont Peterson It’s the best fighting the best. Lamont Peterson is a guy with a tremendous resume. Si algú creu Errol va a prendre a la lleugera Lamont, estan equivocats i que serien massa.
“Tots dos d'aquests combatents esdeveniment principal tenen la sort de tenir entrenadors que són veritables mestres. Són vella escola i dos dels millors. Derrick James i Barry Hunter coneixen el joc dins i per fora.
“Robert Pasqua és una bèstia, que té abast, la capacitat de potència i la boxa. S'enfronta a un tipus en Javier Fortuna que és un ex campió del món de confiança. Javier ha estat parlant d'un gran joc. Està parlant de forats cecs. You want to see a guy come into a fight like this with that kind of confidence.
This year in boxing is starting out just like last year started, at Barclays Center with a great, even matchup like Badou Jack vs. James DeGale last year.
STEPHEN ESPINOZA, Vicepresident Executiu & Gerent General, SHOWTIME Sports
In terms of representing the sport, you don’t get any better than Errol Spence Jr. and Lamont Peterson. The professionalism of these guys is unmatched and they represent the best of the sport. I’m proud to have them on the network.
You can’t play boxing. You have to be dedicated and passionate. Those values are going to be reflected in the ring en dissabte.
This is a special fight. These are the best in the sport. They’re both top 10 nois. Errol Spence Jr. has grown up on SHOWTIME.
He made his pro debut on ShoBox and won his first world title on SHOWTIME. This is Lamont’s eighth appearance on SHOWTIME and he has one of the strongest resumes in the sport.
Robert Easter and Javier Fortuna is another matchup of top 10 nois. What we’re doing here is special. This isn’t just another network doing boxing, this is the cream of the crop.
BRETT Yormark, CEO of Brooklyn Sports & Entreteniment
I’m really excited about Dissabte nit. We’ve been very fortunate to host the first big event of the year. There’s an appetite to get back into the game and we’re happy to be hosting it.
I want to welcome back Errol and Lamont to Barclays Center. Both have been there before and we’re thrilled to have you back. We’re pleased that Robert has finally decided to take his show to Barclays Center and give the fans a performance. Last time Javier won at Barclays Center he won his world title and we’re happy to have him back.
We’re going to create something great here in Brooklyn and it continues en dissabte night at Barclays Center.

Això és el que els combatents havien de dir sobre el camp d'entrenament, their 10-round showdown and more:
How has training camp gone for this fight?
Domonique Dolton: Training has been going well. My strategy has been to stick to conditioning. I swim twice a week and that’s something new that’s been added to my routine. It’s helped a lot with conditioning. I have a new coach, Theotrice Chambers, and we have great chemistry and the results will show come fight night.
Justin DeLoach: “El camp d'entrenament ha estat increïble. It’s really been a great camp. We’re doing all the physical and mental things we have to do for this fight. I’m keeping my head in the game and I’m focused. This team has been with me since the amateur days.
What do you think of your opponent and how do you see this fight going stylistically?
DD: From what I saw, he looks like a tough guy. We are not on the same level though. He’s fought a couple of undefeated guys, but it doesn’t compare to my level of fighting. My skills will speak for me. I put in the hard work. I won’t be thinking about the crowd; it will be tunnel vision for me in the ring. My style is a boxer-puncher and I’m willing to get inside if I have to. I can adapt and adjust in the ring and that’s my advantage over him.
JD: This fight is not going all night. I will break him down early in the fight. I have been studying him and I know Domonique better than he knows himself.
What kind of problems does your opponent pose?
DD: I don’t see any problems. I’m been in the ring with all types of guys. I’ve gone toe-to-toe with a lot of guys and I’ve seen a lot. I have the experience advantage. I have what it takes and I’m just on a different level than Justin DeLoach.
JD: I don’t feel like there are any problems going into this one. I am my biggest challenge. The only person who can beat me, is me. He’s just another body in the ring. I’m going to outthink him in there. I have been keeping my mind right and that’s going to help me out on fight night.
What are you looking for in the future if you can get the win on Setembre 16?
DD: This will probably be my last fight in the division. I will go down and pursue my career at 147-pounds. I believe I am a better and more natural fighter at 147-pounds. I have my names on guys at that weight, but for now I just want to make a name for myself. I’m looking to get a win and become a better fighter.
JD: I don’t feel the need to call anybody out. But if you have a belt, then I’m coming for you. It goes without saying that I want a title shot and I think I’m ready.
Why do you believe you’ll be victorious on fight night?
DD: I am going to win this fight. My confidence is sky high from the team I have been working with. I’m happy with the work I’ve been putting in. I have been training really hard and I believe in my ability. I have what it takes to win. I’m ready to put on a show for my family. I’m motivated by the negativity so the people against me will see what I bring come fight night.
JD: I feel like I’m bringing peace into this fight. I have nothing to prove and I’m trying to make a statement. He has more to lose than I do. I can only be Justin DeLoach. I am in this sport to challenge myself. The loss turned me into a better fighter. It humbled me and took a lot of pressure off of my shoulders. I am better than I’ve ever been before.
