BROOKLYN (Abril 12, 2015) – Premier Boxeo League en NBC returned with two exciting bouts Sábado night as Danny “Rápido” Garcia (30-0, 17 Kos) derrotado Lamont Peterson (33-3-1, 17 Kos) by majority decision and “Irlandés” Andy Lee (34-2-1, 24 Kos) e Peter “Chocolate Kid” Quillin (31-0-1, 22 Kos) fought to a split draw at Barclays Center.

 

The evening’s second main event saw the undefeated Garcia stalk the lightning quick Peterson around the ring while consistently attacking Peterson’s body. Peterson moved well in the first half of the fight, but did not begin engaging offensively until the later rounds.

 

The two exchanged blows throughout a raucous twelfth round that stirred the crowd of 12,300 at Barclays Center into a frenzy. The judges tallies ended at 115-113 for Garcia twice and one score of 114-114.

 

“Eu me sinto gran. I prepared for a war. He was moving a lot. I thought it was close, not going to lie,” dixo García. “It was definitely close the whole way through. I did enough to win and I’m happy with my performance.

 

[On going up in weight] “I feel like I have to go up. It’s affecting my performance, but I feel like I did a great job.

 

I did my part. I’m not calling it a robbery but it was a good fight,” Peterson dixo. “I don’t expect an easy journey for me to get where I’m going. Eu me sinto gran. That’s probably the least contact I’ve ever had in a fight.

 

In the first main event, Quillin scored a huge knockdown in the first round and followed it up by putting Lee on the canvas in round three. Lee made adjustments as the fight went on and began to box Quillin effectively, even putting him down in the seventh round.

 

Lee and Quillin landed almost the same percentage of punches with Lee connecting on 38 percent and Quillin on 39 por cento. One judge scored the bout 113-112 for Lee with another scoring the bout 113-112 for Quillin and the final had a score of 113-113.

 

There’s a reason why judges are judges. They see it their way. I respect the decision,” Dixo Quillin.

 

[On being knocked down] “There’s a first time for everything. I’m very thankful that I was able to get back up and keep fighting. I took a year off and I was able to go 12-rounds and I could have kept going.

 

“Foi unha loita dura. He dropped me early because I was being lazy. I got my momentum late in the fight and I boxed consistently. I understand why with two knockdowns people felt he won the decision. I could have done better esta noite. If my next fight is Peter Quillin.

Here are what the fighters had to say at Thursday’s press conference:

 

Danny GARCIA

 

I’ve been working on fighting hard, but also smart. I’m going to go in there and dictate the pace and I’m always looking for the knockout. If I can’t knock him out then I’ll be ready to go 12 rounds.

 

It’s always hard making weight, but I’m on weight now. Right now I’m growing into my prime and my body is getting bigger and it’ll be time soon for me to go up in weight.

 

I’m looking at this as a very big fight. So I’m going in there mentally and physically ready. He’s coming to fight and I’m coming to fight. Sábado is going to be about who can make the right adjustments.

 

I love Brooklyn. This is my fourth fight here and I’ve heard that the tickets for this fight are selling faster than any other fight they’ve held here. So I must be doing something right in Brooklyn. The atmosphere is great at Barclays Center.

 

I’ve always felt that I’m one of the best pound-for-pound fighters in the world. I’ve won a lot of big fights with a lot of great fighters, and my goal is just continue winning one fight at a time.

 

Lamont Peterson

Danny’s talk makes no difference to me. I think I’m even more confident than him and I’ll get the victory Sábado night and that will be that.

 

The stakes are high. This can definitely push me to the next level in this boxing game. I’ve been at the top for a while but there’s a difference between being at the top and being an elite fighter. I think this will solidify me as an elite fighter.

 

I looked at a few of Danny’s fights but nothing really stood out to me. I know Danny is a counterpuncher, that’s what he does. We’ve come up with a game plan to stop that.

 

I’m a different person than the other guys Danny has fought. I’m a different person with a different style. I trust myself to make adjustments in the ring.

 

This fight will be different than either of our fights with Matthysse. It’s two different fights and styles make fights. There will be different results. I had to prepare for Danny Garcia and Danny Garcia had to prepare for me.

 

There’s no pressure fighting on this big card, but I know what it brings. This brings more exposure and I want to use that exposure in the right way. I know I’m looked up to as a role model and I just want to use this exposure.

 

This will put a big spotlight on boxing and I’m happy to be a part of it.

 

“Estou preparado para loitar, I’ve prepared well and I’m ready to put on a show.

 

Andy Lee

 

I’m eager to fight and ready to go. I’m feeling very dangerous right now.

 

My ring generalship is one thing, but overall I feel like I have a good idea of what I want to do in the ring. Peter has an idea too, but it’s more moment to moment for him, which can be good as well, when you improvise. I’m more of a guy who will set you up and work to a plan.

 

Coming back and winning a fight really strengthens your resolve. You know in your mind that at any time, you have a chance of winning. I never plan to be behind but it happens. This time I plan to lead from the front.

 

Peter is offensive, which leaves openings. He might be cautious for a while because both of us know that we might pay the price of being offensive. Eventually we’ll exchange and it will be explosive one way of the other.

 

I’m a southpaw puncher who can box and I’ve never been in a dull fight. I have a ‘never say dieattitude and I’m not someone who is just going to go out there and play it safe. I’ll risk it all to win.

 

My confidence is very high. I’m the champion of the world and there’s no higher station than that in boxing. I’m the champion and he’ll have to come and take my title.

 

PETER Quillin

 

Everyone tune in on Abril 11 because we’re going to do more than just try to take that belt, we’re going to take that belt because that’s what we do.

 

Andy is the champion of the world but this is the second time I’ve been the challenger to a world champion. I’ve been here before. I know he’s a newly crowned champion so I have nothing bad to say about him.

 

Andy’s greatest strength is that he lost twice and was able to come back and make himself look very good.

 

This is a totally different caliber fight than either of us has had. I’m not any of those fighters that he’s faced. I can’t go in there and try to fight like a Julio Cesar Chavez Jr.

 

I’m only concerned about working hard, which I’ve done every day leading up to this fight. So I have no concerns at all.

 

I’m motivated period. My heart is built on motivation in all things. Talking to media, being on NBC, fighting for the belt and being a positive person. I’m thankful that every day I can put out a positive story about myself.

Lou DiBella, Presidente da DiBella Entertainment

 

We have a great night of boxing from beginning to end, you will be hearing a lot more from these young fighters.

 

If you want to see everything, get there to Barclays Center at 5 p.m.

 

We’re very thrilled that this is going to be televised in primetime on NBC. PBC na NBC. It has a nice ring to it.

 

The first main event of the evening features Andy Lee, middleweight champion and the fighting pride of Limerick. He is a warrior, he’s at the most confident point of his career and he’s going to need to be because he’s fighting an undefeated champion.

 

Peter Quillin makes Brooklyn his home. It’s his third fight at Barclays Center and he has a perfect record of 31-0. He’s going to try to take Andy’s belt, pero non vai ser doado.

 

The bout that will close the show is one of the most eagerly anticipated bouts in all of boxing. Lamont Peterson is noted for being one of the most technically sound boxers in the game and he has an outstanding record to a back it up.

 

Danny Garcia really embodies what it means to be a Philadelphia fighter. He’s a tough guy with an undefeated record. He’s going to look to keep that record perfect against Lamont Peterson.

 

JON MILLER, Presidente, Programación, NBC Sports & NBCSN

 

On behalf of NBC Sports we’re thrilled to be a part of this and to be in our own backyard. We couldn’t pick a better venue than Barclays Center. The card put together is spectacular. There are great fights once again and we’re excited about the progress that this new property has taken for us.

 

I think one of the most unique things about este sábado night is that it’s going to make history in television because three of the most venerable and outstanding sports television personalities will be working together for the first time as Al Michaels will be our host, Marv Albert will be doing play-by-play and for the first time ever they will be joined by Bob Costas.

 

These three iconic figures have worked Olympics and Super Bowls but it’s the first time they’ve ever worked together on one event and that is a tribute to what the entire has put together in delivering this great card.

 

Brett Yormark, CEO do Barclays Centro

 

Este sábado marks a historic moment for Barclays Center as we host our 11thprofessional boxing event and our first Premier Boxing Champions event.

 

When you combine the talent in the ring, the production of the show and the iconic broadcasting team of Al Michael, Bob Costas and Marv Albert plus boxing legend Sugar Ray Leonard this will be one of the best fight nights that New York has hosted in decades.

 

Signifying the magnitude of the event, tickets have sold faster than at any other boxing show Barclays Center has hosted.

 

At Barclays Center, we have not only served as a launch pad for many local boxerscareers, but have relished in the role of becoming the home for Champions.

Here are what the fighters had to say at Martes de exercicio:

 

Danny GARCIA

 

I just want to give the fans a great fight. I want them to see the best Danny Garcia. Ao final do día, this is the fight the fans want to see. My main focus is putting on a great show for the fans.

 

I’ve faced a lot of skillful boxers in my career and I’m still undefeated. That should tell the fans around the world who has more skill. Tal Como Abril 11 when he’s feeling these two bombs on his face he’s going to forget about his skill.

 

I just want to give fans a great fight. I’m not too worried about the ‘0’ on my record. I fight hard to protect it but my main focus is to go in there and get the job done one fight at a time.

 

Everything I’ve done in my career is for a reason. Now I’m here on NBC fighting on this big playing field. This is great for boxing and a breath of fresh air for the sport.

 

I just want to be confident and humble at the same time. I want the fans to love me because I’m being myself. It’s very important for a young champion.

 

I’m going to try to dictate the pace, be smart, move my head, use my feet and land good punches. I can’t try to chase him down.

 

I used to love other great Puerto Rican boxers like Felix Trinidad, Miguel Cotto and Hector Camacho. I feel like I’m definitely working my way up into the ranks with them and following their footsteps.

 

I have to be smart in the ring. I have to go in there and be Danny Garcia. I’m here because I’m a smart fighter. Everyone knows that. Teño poder. I’m going to find my opening and capitalize on his mistakes.

 

 

Lamont Peterson

 

This is just another fight for me. I’m not worried about being the main event. Eu adoro loitar. As long as I’m fighting I’m happy.

 

A lot of people see us fight and see us take punches, but that’s just the easy part. The sacrifice in the gym and putting my body through punishment is the rough part.

 

I’m not trying to prove anyone wrong, but this fight is important to me and I want to win it. I want to be the top guy and that means beating the top guy.

 

People talk about him beating Matthysse and Matthysse beating me, but anyone who knows about boxing knows that doesn’t mean anything. Tal Como Sábado night I will prove to everyone that I’m a better fighter than Danny Garcia.

 

Angel Garcia has his opinion on this fight, and I respect it. He can go on record and say anything he wants, but if he says Danny Garcia is stronger than me, I’ll tell you that’s a lie.

 

We’re not worried about Danny’s power. A lot of people have asked me about that but I’m not worried. Danny Garcia had a split decision with Kendall Holt, who I knocked out. No one seems to mention that.

 

I’m comfortable with whatever way this fight goes. I’m almost guaranteeing the win.

 

I don’t think they’re taking me lightly. Ao final do día, Garcia knows this is a fight and he knows he hasn’t fought anyone like me. I’m expecting a big victory Sábado noite.

 

You never know what you’re going to see with me. Whatever I feel like I need to do to win, that’s what I’ll do. Estou preparado 100 por cento. I’m in shape for 30 rounds and I’ll be ready for anything. ”

 

Andy Lee

 

We’ve made unbelievable progress in the last year on my skills and everything has really just clicked for me and my team and now we’re seeing the results in the ring.

 

I’m very proud to be an Irishman from Limerick defending his world championship in New York, it doesn’t get much better than that.

 

There’s been a huge weight lifted off my shoulders since winning the world-title. It’s what I always wanted to do and I’ve been touted as a champion for years and if I never got it I would have been disappointed. Now the monkey is off my back and I can just box and show people who I am.

 

We’ve made physical and tactical improvements in the gym since the last fight and hopefully they’ll show up in the ring o sábado.

 

I think this could be a technical fight or it could be a bit of a fire fight. It’s going to be a little of both at times. There will be moments where we’re looking at each other, figuring each other out, but once we exchange it could be explosive.

 

Quillin is sure of himself, but he has to be, I have the same mentality. You have to be to compete in this sport.

 

Fighting at home like Quillin is o sábado, brings a different kind of pressure to the table, it’s the pressure of expectations and people you know coming to the fights. That’s also pressure and I know all about that.

 

I haven’t needed to build up my confidence for this fight. It’s not time to think. It’s time to do what I’ve been doing every day in the gym.

 

PETER Quillin

 

I never trailed in a fight and came back and won like Lee. I’ve just won all the time right out of the gate. Those other guys aren’t ‘Kid Chocolateso I think that’s why this fight was made.

 

It’s a big fight for him and a big fight for me. He’s a smart fighter when he’s in trouble so I have to watch out for that. Most importantly I just need to be true to myself.

 

A lot of people had Lee as the underdog in his last fight but he came out and did great. That’s the thing about boxing; one punch can change the fight.

 

I’m getting paid for 12 rounds so I’m preparing for 12 rounds but if I can get him out of there early I will.

 

My whole life has been struggles and I’ve had to overcome every single one of those struggles. This is going to be no different from that.

 

Being a father of course made me more inspired and watching my uncle pass has made me more motivated than ever to accomplish everything I want.

 

When I gave up the belt I learned that I can be a bigger man and make tough decisions like that all of the time. People think losing is easy, but winning all the time is a different kind of pressure.

 

Errol Spence JR.

 

I am the best young prospect in the game. I’m on the borderline of contender status and I believe I’m one fight away from being a contender.

 

I’m a little bit of a mix style-wise. Eu son un boxer, I can punch and I can fight if I have to.

 

The fight I learned the most from was with Emanuel Lartey, he was undefeated along with me and it was my first real fight and first time going the distance.

 

I see myself fighting all the top guys in the welterweight division. I see myself with Keith Thurman, Amir Khan and any top welterweight.

 

I’m going to look good as always o sábado noite, It’s going to be fantastic and I’m going to come out with the victory.

 

MARCUS BROWNE

 

I’m just blessed to have this opportunity to fight at Barclays Center for the eighth time in front of my hometown fans.

 

I love performing in in Brooklyn. The fans here are fantastic and they know when I get in the ring they’re going to see something special.

 

I have a tough opponent in front of me. El é experta, very lanky fighter but we’ve trained very hard and I’m ready for anything he’s got.

 

Sábado is going to be a great night for Team Browne, Staten Island and all of my fans. Don’t blink cause you might miss it!”

 

Luís Collazo

 

I’ve spent some time with the family, regrouping and making sure I still have the same passion for this sport. I’m excited to be back and I jumped at the opportunity to be on this card.

 

This is what I live for. O boxeo é a miña vida.

 

After the Khan fight I took about a month off and then I went straight to the gym. I couldn’t go out like I did against Khan. Sen escusas, but it was time to go back to the drawing board and stay motivated throughout the whole year.

 

The fans can expect the same excitement I always bring. I’m more motivated now and hopefully after this fight I can get a big fight and give the fans what they want.

 

HEATHER HARDY

 

I have the same mindset going into every fight. I train to fight my fight and make adjustments when get in there.

 

I feel strong and I feel capable of whatever needs to be done.

 

I’ve only been boxing for four years so I’m still learning a lot of boxing technique in camp plus working three or four days a week with my strength and conditioning coach.

 

Fans can expect a good show and a big win out me o sábado.”

PHILADELPHIA (Abril 1, 2015) – As fight week nears for the second installment of Premier Boxeo League en NBC (8:30 pm ET/5:30 p.m. PT), superestrela invicto Danny “Rápido” Garcia held a media workout in his hometown of Philadelphia in preparation for his showdown with fellow world champion Lamont Peterson en Sábado, Abril 11 no Barclays Center, en Brooklyn.

Check out what Garcia and his father and trainer Angel had to say o mércores.

 

Danny GARCIA

 

“Adestramento está indo ben, I’ve done everything I have to do and I’m still focused. It’s a week and a half until the fight and I’m ready to go. If the fight were mañá I’d be ready.

 

It’s a big fight and it’s the fight that the fans wanted. We’re going to give the fans a great night of boxing on NBC and it’s time the show the world that Danny Garcia is the star of NBC.

 

We have common opponents like Khan and Matthysse and we’ve had different results. They say styles make fights so those results don’t matter. Ben, my style is to kick his butt.

 

I know that this second PBC on NBC show is going to be even bigger and I just feel blessed to be a part of it and I can’t wait to go out there and showcase my skills.

 

I’m ready for whatever Peterson brings. If he tries to box then I’m going to go with that and if he wants to fight, I’ll be ready. I’m not going to go in and just try to knock his head off, I’m going to be Danny Garcia.

 

I’d love to be fighting on the biggest stage in boxing against the Mayweather and Pacquiaos, but for now it’s just about taking it one fight at a time, this is history in the making.

 

A lot of things have changed for me in the last few years, everybody knows me now. A lot of people look at you different now but it doesn’t make my head bigger, it just motivates me to work hard.

 

I love Brooklyn, it’s my fourth fight at Barclays Center and I’m looking to make it 4-0 en Abril 11.

 

This is a blessing for the sport of boxing. Millions of fans haven’t had the opportunity to watch boxing on primetime in years and this is great for the sport.

 

ANGEL GARCIA

 

I’ll give Peterson credit for putting the gloves on. He thinks it’s going to be an easy night for him. He sees himself already on top of the mountain. It’s not going to happen like that, we’re going to ruin his party.

 

I want Peterson to act confident and come forward. They’re talking like Danny isn’t special but he lost to the guys we beat.

 

It doesn’t matter what anyone says as long as Danny is in here putting in 100 percent every day. It’s all about Abril 11.

 

We’re not going to train for eight weeks to go in there and worry about what Peterson is going to do, we’re going to do what we have to do. We train to go in there and win on Abril 11.”

Washington D.C.. (Marzo 26, 2015) – A little more than two weeks in advance of his highly anticipated bout at Barclays Centro en Brooklyn, Lamont Peterson (33-2-1, 17 Kos) media aloxados no Centro de Recreación do aguia americana en Washington, D.C. Lamont, seu irmán Anthony e adestrador de Lamont, Barry Hunter, took some time out of their training schedule to discuss Lamont’s Premier Boxeo League enfrontamento contra Danny “Rápido” Garcia (29-0, 17 Kos) en Abril 11.

 

Abaixo podes atopar citas notables do evento, que contou coa presenza de impresión, transmitir e medios de comunicación en liña de toda a rexión:

 

Lamont Peterson, Super Leve Campión do Mundo

 

“O plan pode ser só para ir alí e loitar con el. Independentemente de como eu escoller para loitar, Eu sinto que podo gañar. Eu teño os pés máis rápidos, pero podo usalos para facer outras cousas tamén. Podo ir á fronte. Eu non sempre teño que estar indo cara atrás. Vou manter o plan de xogo, pero nós non sabemos o que o plan de xogo é agora.

 

“Miña mentalidade mostra sempre no arena, especialmente nas roldas finais. Pedir unha morea de seu corpo en que o anel e unha morea de veces que vai para o que sabe. Polo tanto, a súa personalidade definitiva sae, e eu creo que é onde eu brillar máis que outros loitadores. As roldas son cando eu normalmente asumir a loita. Moitas das veces eu desexo que poderiamos ir máis roldas.

 

“Os fans querían ver esa loita, entón eu quería estar seguro de que isto aconteceu. Nunca realmente chamar nomes ou falar sobre quen quero próxima. Deixo iso para os fans e para os medios de comunicación, porque hai moitas loitas que os fans queren ver que nunca ocorrerá. Ao final do día, Estou loitando para os fans e os medios entón por que non loitar con quen queren que eu loite?

 

“Estou só mirando para tomar as cousas que fago ben e executar, e entón eu estou ollando para sacar as cousas García fai ben e forza-lo a facer as cousas que el non fai moito máis frecuentemente. Eu non ollo a calquera loita anterior del e creo que a nosa vai ir por ese camiño.

 

“Eu son un loitador mellor. El é sempre un contra-perforado e nós estamos mirando para asegurarse de que non se opuxo a forma como algúns outros foron.

 

“Houbo altos e baixos no campamento. Ás veces é hora de tirar para atrás e relaxarse, pero ás veces é hora de traballar duro. En xeral, eu me sinto gran. Unha morea de xente dicir iso, pero este foi o meu mellor campo de adestramento sempre e eu estou feliz onde estou agora. Estou preparado para loitar.

 

“Esta é a maior loita para min. Tras este non hai máis nada que facer na clase de peso. Gustaríame moverse tras esta próxima loita.”

 

Barry Hunter, Instrutor de Peterson

 

“Lamont é un loitador moi versátil. El estivo no arena centos de veces. Pode caixa. Pode loitar dentro e fóra. Pode crear estratexias, pero tamén pode ser moi agresivo.

 

“Danny é un loitador sólido. Non fai unha ou dúas cousas gran, pero fai unha morea de cousas ben. Hai algunhas cousas aínda que vimos nel que pensamos que podemos explorar e nós estamos indo a ir alí coa intención de facelo. En xeral, creo que Lamont é un loitador mellor.

 

“Hai só un pequeno número de grandes nomes esquerda no 140, todo o mundo subiu a 147. Entón, o camiño de Lamont de pensar era que o único xeito esa loita ten sentido en 140 foi se podería afrontar Danny Garcia. Este foi máis sobre dando aos fans o que eles queren ver. Isto vai dar aos fans unha gran loita libre de novo na TV nacional.

 

“NBC é unha verdadeira rede de deportes. Teñen NBA, WNBA, NFL, MLB, NHL, MLS e o único deporte que estaba falta era boxeo. Boxing adoitaba ser en todas as redes e tiveron loitas lendarias con loitadores lendarios. Non sempre foi preto de un cinto ou. Entón, as cousas cambiaron, pero iso nos dá unha oportunidade de traer de volta o boxeo para os verdadeiros fans.”

 

Anthony Peterson

“Eu non estou nervioso sobre a asistir esta loita. Eu só vou sentir e asistir. Lamont tan listo.

 

“Danny é un loitador extraordinario. Está no seu ADN, pero Lamont é tan enfocada Estou confiado que vai gañar.

 

“Lamont aprendeu a loitar protexerme nas rúas.”

A 31-year-old de Kiev, Ucraína Postol (26-0, 11 Kos) fixo un nome para si mesmo como un dos homes máis temidos na división super lixeiro. Tendo só loitou dúas veces nos Estados Unidos antes, Abril 11 É unha gran oportunidade para Postol para facer unha declaración en solo americano. Tras unha vitoria emocionante sobre Selçuk Aydin maio 2014, Postol está preparado para un gran 2015.

 

Loitando fóra de Porto Rico, o nacer-rápido Colon (13-0, 10 Kos) fai a súa segunda aparición no Barclays Center en Abril 11 despois de dominar LENWOOD Dozier en Brooklyn, de camiño a unha decisión de seis rolda en agosto 2014.
