Le combat a été arrêté avant le début du huitième tour après l'entraîneur de Peterson, Barry Hunter, a appelé à l'arrêt.

 

 

 

Le combat joue similaire à la façon dont les deux combattants ont prédit, à partir d'une affaire tactique méfiant avant qu'il transformé en un combat agressif dans les étapes intermédiaires. Deux minutes autour de cinq, Spence a utilisé un cloquage crochet gauche pour envoyer Peterson à la toile (Cliquez ICIpour point culminant).

Après le combat Spence a parlé au journaliste Jim Gray SHOWTIME Sport et n'a pas tardé à donner du crédit à son adversaire. « Je tiens à remercier Lamont,"Il a dit. « Beaucoup de gars a refusé le combat et il a pris comme un vrai guerrier et je l'en félicite. Il est un combattant dur. He’s willing to die in there.” Click ICI de regarder le point culminant d'entrevue.

 

 

 

En dépit de gagner la victoire en commandant la mode, Spence croit encore qu'il a de la place pour améliorer. « Je peux encore améliorer beaucoup de choses sur ma défense,» A déclaré le champion du monde invaincu. « Je dois simplement continuer à perfectionner mes compétences et continuer à progresser. Vous allez voir une meilleure Errol Spence prochaine fois que je reçois dans le ring.

 

 

 

« Tout le monde sait que je suis attendu sur « Some Time » Thurman,» Dit Spence, dans la perspective d'un match d'unification possible avec WBC et WBA mi-moyens champion du monde Keith Thurman. "Depuis que j'étais 15-0 I’ve been calling this guy out and he keeps making excuses. Mettons-nous sur. Il a deux des ceintures et nous avons deux grands noms. Il est un combat facile à faire et je le veux « .

 

 

 

Peterson, qui se sont battus vaillamment contre le jeune Spence, respecté la décision de son entraîneur d'arrêter le combat, «S'il me demande de combattre un million de personnes, Je ferai. S'il me demande d'arrêter. je vais arrêter. Je ne pourrai jamais remettre en question sa décision. Je sais qu'il a mes intérêts à coeur « .

 

 

 

« Il était vraiment difficile, mais si vous connaissez Lamont, vous savez qu'il ne va pas abandonner,» Dit entraîneur Barry Hunter. « Je devais arrêter. A la fin de la journée,, c'est mon fils ici. Il n'y a rien de plus précieux que son bien-être. Si elle lui vient ou gagner, Je le chercher. Je me soucie de lui. »

 

 

Undefeated 135-pound world champion Robert Pâques (21-0, 14 KOs) earned a split decision victory over former world champion Javier Fortuna (33-2-1, 23 KOs) en cas de co-principal de l'émission de télévision Showtime. Les juges ont noté le combat 114-113, 113-114 et 115-112.

 

 

 

Le combat va-et-vient a vu deux combattants qualifiés restent dans la poche et cherchent à faire des dégâts de l'intérieur. Une deuxième déduction rond point de Fortuna a coûté cher quand la République dominicaine a été averti et sanctionné pour avoir frappé Pâques derrière la tête. Sans une déduction de points, la lutte aurait été marqué un tirage au sort. Alors que Pâques Jr. était légèrement plus occupé, Fortuna a atterri les coups de poing plus puissants. Pâques Jr., qui détenait un avantage de taille importante, Fortuna a atterri sur, connexion sur 120 de 383 (31 pour cent) coups de puissance tandis que Fortuna connectés sur 113 de 441 (26 pour cent).

 

 

 

« Ce fut un combat difficile, il est un ancien champion du monde pour une raison,» Pâques dit Gris. « Nous l'avons fait essayer difficile de contrer coup de poing. Il ne jetais pas beaucoup et il a rendu difficile pour moi de chasser ce gars autour.

 

 

 

“Je ne pouvais pas le knock-out, mais nous avons obtenu la victoire et que tout ce qui compte. Je savais qu'il allait courir une fois qu'il sentait mon pouvoir. Il voulait juste saisir et de tenir toute la lutte « .

 

 

 

Regarder vers l'avant, Pâques a fait clairement ses intentions comme il cherche des épisodes d'unification dans un proche avenir, « Je veux me battre les champions et unifier ces ceintures. Combats comme ceux-ci ne sont pas dans mon plan de jeu. Je suis prêt à signer le contrat Mikey Garcia et Jorge Linares « .

 

 

 

Une Fortuna mécontente a également parlé à Gray, « Le public sait ce qui est arrivé ici. Ils ont hué parce qu'ils savent que j'ai gagné ce combat.

 

 

 

«S'il est un homme de laisser se battre à nouveau à 135 livres,», A déclaré Fortuna, who failed to make weight on two attempts Vendredi, ce qui signifie que la ceinture de Pâques ne serait pas sur la ligne. « Je vais certainement faire le poids. Je ne me suis pas donné assez de temps pour former « .

 

 

 

Candidat invaincu des poids lourds légers Marcus Browne (21-0, 16 KOs) fait le travail rapide de Francy Ntetu (17-2, 4 KOs) dans l'action BOXE CHAMPIONNAT SHOWTIME prelims, as he dropped and battered his opponent early to force referee Arthur Mercante to stop the bout at just 2:15 de la première ronde.

Montréal, natif du Québec n'a jamais été en mesure de retrouver ses pieds et se trouva acculé contre les cordes seulement trente secondes plus tard. Un barrage de combinaisons puissantes atterri sur la défense Ntetu a quitté l'arbitre avec peu d'autre choix que d'arrêter le combat avec 45 secondes restantes en nombre rond une.

 

 

 

“Nous avons travaillé pour cette victoire. Il est entré dans un coup sûr et je lui ai fait payer,» A déclaré Browne. « La gauche en pronation l'a attrapé et ce fut le début de la fin pour lui. Je savais qu'il était blessé.

 

 

 

“Je besoin d'un coup de titre mondial. Je suis prêt à prendre l'un des champions. Je n'ai pas les préférences. Je suis content d'avoir mis en place une autre grande performance ici au Barclays Center. Je vais continuer à améliorer jusqu'à ce que je devienne vraiment M.. Barclays Center « .

 

 

 

crédit, qui a déménagé à la division des lourds légers pour ce combat, avait du mal à traiter avec la combinaison de Browne de la vitesse et de la puissance sur le chemin de la deuxième perte de sa carrière pro.

 

 

 

"[Browne] est très explosif, Félicitations à lui,” Ledit Ntetu. “Il est rapide, il est intelligent et je ne l'attendait pas à être cet explosif. Il m'a fait avec son crochet droit et gauche droite.

 

 

 

« Je suis en assez forme pour se battre pour 10 tours. Ce n'est pas ma catégorie de poids, mais je ne veux pas faire des excuses « .

 

 

 

Dans le combat d'ouverture du BOXE CHAMPIONNAT SHOWTIME prelims, invaincu Adam Kownacki (17-0, 14 KOs) delivered a brutal knockout of Iago Kiladze (26-2, 18 KOs) à 2:08 of the sixth round of their heavyweight matchup. Kownacki, né à Lomza, Pologne, mais les combats de Brooklyn, New York, apprécié comme il portait constamment vers le bas Kiladze le soutien de sa foule locale.

 

 

 

Kownacki était plus agressif et précis des deux combattants, atterrissage 43 pour cent de ses coups de puissance et 35 pour cent de ses coups totaux, comparativement à seulement 30 pour cent et 18 pour cent, respectivement, pour Kiladze. Malgré un nez sanglant qui Kownacki souffert au premier tour, le poids lourd polonais a commencé à verser et sur pneus Kiladze avec une série de uppercuts et un deux combinaisons dans le quatrième tour.

“Je pense que je fait de la lutte beaucoup plus difficile que je devrais. Il est une autre expérience d'apprentissage et j'ai eu la victoire. C'est tout ce qui compte."

ERROL SPENCE JR.
“Ce combat signifie tout pour moi. 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. Je tiens à combattre. 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 PÂQUES
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 Janvier 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.
“Je me suis très bien préparé. 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, Entraîneur 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. Maintenant que nous sommes ici, 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, Entraîneur 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.
DiBella LOU, Président 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 Samedi nuit au 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. If anybody thinks Errol is going to take Lamont lightly, they’re mistaken and he would be too.
Both of these main event fighters are lucky to have trainers who are real teachers. They are old school and two of the best. Derrick James and Barry Hunter know the game inside and out.
Robert Easter is a beast, he’s got reach, power and boxing ability. He’s facing a guy in Javier Fortuna who is a confident former world champion. Javier has been talking a big game. He’s talking about knockouts. 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, Vice-président exécutif & Directeur Général, Sports Showtime
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 Samedi.
This is a special fight. These are the best in the sport. They’re both top 10 gars. 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 gars. What we’re doing here is special. This isn’t just another network doing boxing, this is the cream of the crop.
BRETT YORMARK, PDG de Brooklyn Sports & Divertissement
I’m really excited about Samedi nuit. 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 Samedi night at Barclays Center.

Voici ce que les combattants avaient à dire sur le camp d'entraînement, 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: “Le camp d'entraînement a été incroyable. 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 Septembre 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.
