I sitt första försvar, eftersom dethroning Kell Brook på Showtime i maj, Spence (23-0, 20 Kos) ut inramade en tuff Peterson (35-4-1, 17 Kos) från början till slut, visar upp ett brett spektrum av färdigheter, hastighet och kraft. Kampen stoppades före starten av den åttonde omgången efter Petersons tränare, Barry Hunter, kallas för stoppet.

 

 

 

Kampen utspelar sig på liknande sätt som båda tävlande förutspådde, med början i en slug taktisk affär innan den förvandlas till en aggressiv kamp i mitten rundor. Två minuter in runda fem, Spence använde en svidande vänsterkrok att skicka Peterson till duken (Klicka HÄRför höjdpunkt). The Washington, D.C. infödda tillbaka på fötter och fortsatte att kämpa, men Spence visade sig vara för mycket. Den 2012 US. Olympian ut landade Peterson 161-45, vid anslutning på 49 procent av sin makt slag bara 31 procent för Peterson.

 

 

 

Efter kampen Spence talade till Showtime Sports reporter Jim Gray och var snabb att ge kredit till sin motståndare. ”Jag vill tacka Lamont,"Sa han. ”Många killar tackade kamp och han tog det som en riktig krigare och jag lovordar honom för det. He’s a tough fighter. He’s willing to die in there.” Click HÄR att titta på intervjun höjdpunkt.

 

 

 

Trots tjäna seger i befallande sätt, Spence tror fortfarande att han har utrymme att förbättra. ”Jag kan fortfarande förbättra en hel del på mitt försvar,”Sade mästare obesegrade världen. ”Jag har bara hålla finslipa mina kunskaper och hålla framåt. Du kommer att se en bättre Errol Spence nästa gång jag får i ringen.

 

 

 

”Alla vet att jag har väntat på’Some Time’Thurman,”Sade Spence, blickar framåt till en möjlig återförening match med WBC och WBA weltervikt världsmästaren Keith Thurman. "Sedan jag var 15-0 I’ve been calling this guy out and he keeps making excuses. Låt oss få det på. Han har två av remmarna och vi båda har stora namn. Det är en lätt match att göra och jag vill ha det.”

 

 

 

Peterson, som kämpade tappert mot den yngre Spence, respekterade beslutet av hans tränare att stoppa slagsmål, ”Om han ber mig att bekämpa en miljon människor, Jag ska. Om han ber mig att sluta. jag ska sluta. Jag kommer aldrig att ifrågasätta hans beslut. Jag vet att han har mitt bästa för ögonen.”

 

 

 

”Det var verkligen svårt, men om du vet Lamont, du vet att han inte kommer att ge upp,”Sa tränaren Barry Hunter. ”Jag var tvungen att stoppa det. Vid slutet av dagen, detta är min son här. Det finns inget mer värdefullt än hans välbefinnande. Om det kommer till honom eller vinna, Jag plockar honom. Jag bryr mig om honom.”

 

 

Undefeated 135-pound world champion Robert påsk (21-0, 14 Kos) earned a split decision victory over former world champion Javier Fortuna (33-2-1, 23 Kos) i co-main event av Showtime telecast. Domarna gjorde matchen 114-113, 113-114 och 115-112.

 

 

 

Back-och-tillbaka skjutningen såg två skickliga soldater kvar i fickan och titta för att göra skada från insidan. En andra omgång punkt avdrag från Fortuna bevisade dyrt när Dominikanska varnades och straffas för att slå påsk bakom huvudet. Utan en punkt avdraget, kampen skulle ha gjorde oavgjort. Medan påsk Jr. var något livligare, Fortuna landade de mer kraftfulla slag. Påsk Jr., som höll en betydande höjd fördel, ut landade Fortuna, ansluter på 120 av 383 (31 procent) effekt stansar medan Fortuna anslutna på 113 av 441 (26 procent).

 

 

 

”Det var en hård kamp, Han är en före detta mästare av en anledning värld,”Påsk berättade Gray. ”Vi gjorde det svårt att försöka motverka punch. Han var inte kasta mycket och det gjorde det svårt för mig att jaga den här killen runt.

 

 

 

“Jag kunde inte få knockout men vi fick segern och det är allt som betyder något. Jag visste att han var på väg att köra när han kände min makt. Han ville bara att greppa och hålla hela kampen.”

 

 

 

Blickar framåt, Påsk gjorde sina avsikter när han söker enande anfall inom en snar framtid, ”Jag vill bekämpa mästare och förena dessa bälten. Slagsmål som dessa är inte i min spelplan. Jag är redo för Mikey Garcia och Jorge Linares att underteckna kontraktet.”

 

 

 

En missnöjd Fortuna talade också till Gray, ”Allmänheten vet vad som hände här. De utbuad eftersom de vet att jag vunnit denna kamp.

 

 

 

”Om han är en man Låt oss slåss igen på 135-pounds,”Sade Fortuna, who failed to make weight on two attempts Fredag, vilket innebar att påsken bälte skulle inte vara på linjen. ”Jag kommer definitivt att vikten. Jag ville inte ge mig själv tillräckligt med tid att träna.”

 

 

 

Unbeaten light heavyweight contender Marcus Browne (21-0, 16 Kos) gjorde snabbt arbete av Francy Ntetu (17-2, 4 Kos) i Showtime CHAMPIONSHIP BOXNINGS Prelims åtgärd, as he dropped and battered his opponent early to force referee Arthur Mercante to stop the bout at just 2:15 av den första omgången. Kämpar för sin 12th time at the Barclays Center, den 27 åriga Staten Island infödda höll hans opåverkad rekord intakt genom att utnyttja sin starka vänster hand på overmatched Ntetu.

 

 

 

Browne etablerat sin dominans från början, landar en ren over vänster som tappade Ntetu halvvägs genom rundan. Montreal, Québec infödda var aldrig kunna återfå sina fötter och fann sig hörn mot repen bara trettio sekunder senare. En störtflod av kraftfulla kombinationer landade på försvars Ntetu lämnade domaren med lite annat val än att stoppa kampen med 45 sekunder kvar i omgång nummer ett.

 

 

 

“Vi arbetade för vinst. Han gick in i ett säkert skott och jag gjorde honom betala,”Sade Browne. ”The over vänster fångade honom och det var början till slutet för honom. Jag visste att han var skadad.

 

 

 

“Jag behöver en värld titel skott. Jag är redo att ta på någon av mästarna. Jag har inga preferenser. Jag är glad att jag satt ihop en annan stor prestation här på Barclays Center. Jag kommer att fortsätta att förbättra tills jag blivit riktigt Mr. Barclays Center.”

 

 

 

kredit, som flyttade upp till lätt tungvikt division för denna kamp, hade svårt att hantera Browne kombination av hastighet och kraft på väg till den andra förlusten av sin professionella karriär.

 

 

 

"[Browne] är mycket explosiv, grattis till honom,” Said Ntetu. “Han är snabb, Han är smart och jag trodde att han skulle vara att explosiv. Han fick mig med sin högra krok och en rak vänster.

 

 

 

”Jag var i tillräckligt form för att kämpa för 10 rundor. Det är inte min viktklass, men jag vill inte göra ursäkter.”

 

 

 

I öppningen anfall av Showtime MÄSTERSKAPBOXNINGS Prelims, obesegrad Adam Kownacki (17-0, 14 Kos) delivered a brutal knockout of Iago Kiladze (26-2, 18 Kos) vid 2:08 of the sixth round of their heavyweight matchup. Kownacki, född i Lomza, Polen utan att kämpa av Brooklyn, New York, åtnjöt stöd för sin hemstad folkmassan som han stadigt bar Kiladze ner.

 

 

 

Kownacki var mer aggressiva och korrekt av de två kämparna, landning 43 procent av sin makt slag och 35 procent av hans totala stansar, jämfört med bara 30 procent och 18 procent, respektive, för Kiladze. Trots en blodig näsa som Kownacki led i den första omgången, Polens tunga började hälla det på och däck Kiladze med en rad uppercuts och en-två kombinationer i den fjärde omgången. Den actionfyllda bout upphörde när Kownacki ansluten en kombination av två uppercuts och en höger som skickade Kiladze på rygg i den sista minuten av den sjätte omgången. Efter en bedövad Kiladze tillbaka på fötter, domaren Shada Murdaugh kallade kampen på förslag av ringside läkare.

 

 

 

“Jag är så tacksam till alla mina polska fans som kommer ut och ge mig det extra stöd”, nämnda Kownacki, som kämpade framför hundratals hans landsmän. ”Jag kommer att fortsätta kämpa för fansen och ge alla en stor show.

 

 

 

“Jag tror att jag gjorde kampen mycket svårare än jag borde ha. Det är en annan lärorikt och jag fick vinna. Det är allt som betyder något.”

 

 

 

Georgien födda Kiladze, som kämpar ut ur Los Angeles, var oförmögen att tala med media när han fördes till NYU Lutheran Hospital av försiktighetsskäl.

ERROL SPENCE JR.
“Denna kamp betyder allt för mig. 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. Jag gillar att slåss. 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 PÅSK
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 Januari 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, Spence tränare
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, Petersons Trainer
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, VD för 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 på lördag natt på 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 VD & General Manager, 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 på lördag.
This is a special fight. These are the best in the sport. They’re both top 10 killar. 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 killar. 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 & Underhållning
I’m really excited about Lördag natt. 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 på lördag night at Barclays Center.

Här är vad de stridande hade att säga om träningsläger, 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: “Träningsläger har varit fantastiskt. 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 September 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.
