OXON HILL, MD. (אפריל 15, 2017) – Undefeated WBA Interim Light Heavyweight Titlist Dmitry Bivol knocked down Samuel Clarkson three times en route to a fourth-round TKO יום שישי באירוע המרכזי שלShoBox: הדור החדש live on SHOWTIME from MGM National Harbor.
Bivol (10-0, 8 קוס) is now the mandatory challenger for WBA (רגיל) Light Heavyweight World Champion Nathan Cleverly.
Bivol stalked Clarkson from the opening bell. The former Russian amateur standout floored Clarkson in the opening 30 seconds with a series of shots and then knocked him down again a minute later with a straight right. קלרקסון (19-4, 12 קוס) survived the round but didn’t respond well to trouble and was unable to upset Bivol’s rhythm and incredible accuracy.
Clarkson was knocked down for a third time when he appeared to walk into a big right midway through the fourth, forcing referee Harvey Dock to halt the contest at 1:40 as Clarkson struggled to get to his feet. Bivol landed 46 percent of his power shots over the four rounds compared to just 17 percent for Clarkson.
“I thought I would finish him in the first round, but I think it was better that it went to four rounds because the fans were able to see the way I fight,” Bivol said.
“I’m definitely ready for my title shot against (נתן) Cleverly in my next fight. אני מוכן. "
Clarkson had entered the ShoBox main event on a nine-fight winning streak.
“He caught me with a good body shot for the first knockdown,” Clarkson said. “I thought I was back in the fight in rounds two and three. In round four I got caught, I stumbled and my balance was off.”
Welterweight prospect Malik Hawkins kept his undefeated record intact with a dominating second-round TKO of previously undefeated Carlos Soto in the ShoBox שיתוף תכונה.
הוקינס (11-0, 8 קוס) attacked early and virtually closed Soto’s left eye late in the first round. Soto took a knee in the closing seconds of the round but survived, although his vision was clearly impaired.
Hawkins out-landed Soto 39-15 בשני, לְהָבִיא 15-1 in the final minute. The ringside physician ruled that Soto (13-1-2, 7 קוס) could no longer see out of his left eye following the second round and waved off the contest.
“Hard work and dedication. I had a strong camp and believe in my team,” said Hawkins, who is trained by Baltimore’s Calvin Ford and is a stablemate of IBF Junior Lightweight Champion Gervonta Davis. “What makes it even more special is the blessing of my first-born child.”
“I want to give a shout-out to my opponent. He was big, he was strong, he was durable and he was undefeated.”
Soto became the 163 fighter to suffer their first defeat on ShoBox.
In a matchup of undefeated super bantamweights in the opening bout of the ShoBox שִׁדוּר בְּטֵלֵוִיזִיָה, Glenn Dezurn narrowly edged Leroy Davila to hand the latter his first career loss in a back-and-forth fight scored 78-74 by all three judges.
The Baltimore native Dezurn (9-0, 6 קוס) seemed to throw the harder punches and was more effective while fighting on the inside against Davila (5-1, 3 קוס), who was the naturally smaller of the two. While Dezurn was the more active fighter – he threw nearly 100 more punches over the eight-round bout – the final rounds were extremely difficult to score as the fighters landed within eight total punches across the last three rounds.
“I came into the fight with the best trainers in the world, I train at the best gym in the world. I have the best team in the world and, הכי חשוב, I have the best wife and sparring partner in the world,” said Dezurn, who trains under Barry Hunter in Washington, זֶרֶם יָשָׁר, and spars with his wife, female professional boxer and former eight-time national amateur champion Franchon Crews.
“My team told me that all of the training and sparring I do is harder than this fight itself. The sparring I do every day is harder. I wasn’t going to shortchange myself during this fight when what I do every day is harder and when all of my friends and family came out to support.”
Davila became the 162 fighter to suffer his first defeat on the prospect developmental series.
"הלילה wasn’t about winning or losing I showed that I have dog in me. I answered that question,” said Davila. “I went off the game plan and should have listened to my corner. The size played a small part in the fight, but I am not making any excuses. I have seen small men knock out big men before.”

ציטוטים הסופיים:
DMITRY BIVOL:
“The plan was to become world champion in my first 10 קרבות. We’re almost there.
“Clarkson is a big light heavyweight, but I have fought bigger guys. זהו מאבק קשה, but we were willing to take a risk for this opportunity to fight on TV.
“I did have a transition from amateur to pros. The WSB helped that transition and gave me experience. I’ve been able to learn from fight to fight, and I’ve gained experience in each fight.
“I’ve been trying to be more aggressive and control the pace of the fight. I’m comfortable going forward and backward.
“We’ll feel out the power and timing in the beginning. I know what people expect of me – they want the KO – and if the opportunity comes I’ll try to finish him.
“Working at Wild Card has been a big difference. Training in the U.S. is completely different. In Russia it’s mostly amateurs, so you get used to the wrong style. Most of what I’ve learned has been from sparring with pros here in the U.S.
“Clarkson usually comes forward. He seems uncomfortable moving back. We think we can use our advantages to cap on his mistakes and get him out of his comfort zone.”
סמואל קלרקסון:
“I’m not an underdog. I’ve fought my way up here to this position and the winning streak. I feel like I’ve proven myself to be here. My losses have helped me get to where I am. I know I belong here.
“I’ve never been one to get knocked down and stay down. I’m ready for whatever comes. The pressure isn’t on me. I just need to do my thing.
“I’ve been in some wars. I know what it’s like to get knocked down. He hasn’t been there before. I need to stand my ground. I’m not backing up.
“I want to see what the hype is about. His whole career is my winning streak.
“I’ve been sparring with top quality guys. אני מוכן למאבק הזה. It’s a big opportunity and I don’t feel any pressure.
“He hasn’t been in wars like we have. It’s hard when you face a guy like me that isn’t afraid of you. He’s one dimensional. We want to make him as uncomfortable as possible.
“We’re coming to take his belt. He’s going to have to stop us from taking it. He’s never faced anyone like me – a really fast fighter with a lot of power.”
CARLOS SOTO:
“I’ll do whatever it takes. If I have to come forward, I’ll come forward. If I have to box, I’ll box.
“Hawkins a smart fighter, מהר, tall. He likes to fight at a distance. I need to pressure him to win the fight.
“I’ve faced fighters as tall as him before. This isn’t new for me.
“I’ve only been in the U.S. once before, and I’ve never fought here. I need to take advantage of this experience.
“My goal is to go for it. I want to be the best in my weight class. Everything starts now for me.”
MALIK HAWKINS:
“I grew up with Gervonta (דייויס). I saw him win the title, I’ve seen his success, and now it’s my turn. It’s been great motivation for me. For him to become a champion motivated me even more.
“We’ve sparred 1,000’s of rounds with Gervonta. We’ve been in there with the champ and know it’s our time.
“We’re here to prove we’re ready. We don’t want to take any shortcuts. We’re taking this one fight at a time. We’re building and building.
“I’m tall, but I have an inside game. I fight inside better than a short fighter.
“People don’t want to take the chance to fight me. Credit to Soto for taking the fight, but he’s going to learn the hard way why no one wants to fight me.”
LEROY DAVILA
“We knew this was coming some day and now it’s here. We know all about Dezurn. He’s the perfect opponent for us. We know can break him down.
“When I didn’t make the Olympic team, I got right over it. But I wasn’t sure I was going to turn pro. I have a family to take care of and I can’t let anything distract me from being a father. But now I’m 5-0 and fighting on national TV. This is the moment I’ve been waiting for.
“Dezurn is an aggressive and has a lot of heart, but I’m not worried about him. I need to focus on myself.
“A win puts me in the conversation with the other up-and-coming fighters. A win could really change my career.”
GLENN DEZURN:
“Sparring with my wife helps me. She hits like a dude. She’s taught me a lot – she taught me discipline. We push each other in the gym; we make each other better fighters.
“If you can make an adjustment with a sharp female woman, there’s no reason you can’t do it with a man.
“I like to break down my opponents. I become aggressive when I see a weakness.
“I’m ready to fight. I’m ready to get in there. I worked hard and now it’s time to have fun.
“I sparred with Rau’Shee (וורן) למאבק הזה. He has tremendous talent. He’s an inspiration for me. We also sparred with Vasyl Lomachenko for this fight. You have to be physically and mentally in shape to fight him.”
