Live in downtown Los Angeles beginning at 4:30 p.m. UND / 1:30 p.m. PT. The press conference is open to ticket holders for the Leo Santa Cruz vs. Rafael Rivera featherweight championship fight.

Am Dienstag, Februar 19, Spence and Garcia will square off at a press conference from
AT&T Stadium where they will finally go toe-to-toe on March 16.

Garcia is stepping up two weight classes from his last fight to challenge Spence for the welterweight title in Spence’s backyard, not far from the Dallas suburb of DeSoto where Spence grew up a lifelong Dallas Cowboys fan. Garcia will be fighting in Texas for the ninth time as a pro and figures to be buoyed by the large contingent of Mexican and Mexican-American fans that will be in attendance.

His task has historical parallels to the paths taken by great fighters like Shane Mosley, Juan Manuel Marquez and Manny Pacquiao, who all moved up multiple weight classes to challenge all-time great welterweights. Mosley and Pacquiao were both successful in moving up from lightweight to defeat Oscar De La Hoya, while Marquez’s rise to welterweight was halted in a decision loss to Floyd Mayweather.

Spence is a power-punching welterweight who has stopped his last 11 opponents heading into this intriguing matchup against the brilliant tactician that Garcia has established himself as. With a clash of two superb boxers in the prime of their careers and squarely in the top-five of the mythical pound-for-pound rankings, the winner can stake a claim as the best boxer in the sport today.

“Errol Spence Jr. vs. Mikey Garcia is a matchup of two highly-skilled and accomplished fighters in a true blockbuster showdown,” sagte Tom Brown, Präsident der TGB Promotions. “Fans will get to see the hometown hero Spence against the Mexican-American superstar Garcia with huge contingents of fans uplifting them to put on a performance to match the moment. Combined with a jam-packed pay-per-view undercard of action fights, this has all the makings of a once-in-a-lifetime event.

“Spence vs. Garcia is an event that transcends boxing and is a coronation that will crown the new ‘King of Boxing,'” sagte Richard Schaefer, Vorsitzender und CEO von Ringstar Sports. “In addition to the main event, fight fans will be treated to a spectacular night of boxing featuring three of the most exciting Mexican fighters in the sport in David Benavidez, Luis Nery and Chris Arreola. This is exactly what a pay-per-view card is and should be all about: entertainment and non-stop action from the first bell to the last!”

We are proud to host a boxing match of this magnitude with Errol Spence Jr. and Mikey Garcia,” said Dallas Cowboys Owner, President and General Manager Jerry Jones. “AT&T Stadium was built to house the greatest sporting events on the planet, and we feel we have another incredible boxing event on the horizon with this matchup in our building on March 16.

Spence (24-0, 21 KOs) is no stranger to big stadium events as he won the IBF title by traveling to England to take on then-champion Kell Brook at Bramhall Lane soccer stadium on May 27, 2017. In front of a raucous crowd of over 27,000 loyal Brook supporters, the 28-year-old Spence stopped Brook in round 11 to wrest away the title.

This will be Spence’s third defense of the title. After beating Brook, he successfully defended it with an eighth-round stoppage of two-division champion Lamont Peterson and then knocked out mandatory challenger Carlos Ocampo in the first round in his last fight at Ford Center at The Star in Frisco, Texas, near his hometown of Desoto, Texas on June 16. Spence turned pro shortly after representing the U.S. am 2012 London Olympics with much promise and rose to the championship ranks with wins over former champion Chris Algieri and veteran contenders Leonard Bundu, Alejandro Barrera and Chris van Heerden.

I can’t wait for March 16th. It doesn’t get bigger than this,” said Spence. “Fighting at AT&T Stadium in my hometown is a dream come true. If I beat Mikey Garcia the way I plan on beating him, I will be the guy in the sport. This is my year and Mikey isn’t going to stop me. I am training like this is the biggest fight of my life and I want to put on a great show for the fans and win convincingly.

Garcia (39-0, 30 KOs) is striving to put together a legendary career and is aggressively pursuing that goal. He has won world championships at featherweight, Junior Leichtgewicht, lightweight and junior welterweight. He now eyes a welterweight title against the consensus class of the division in Spence. Fighting out of Moreno Valley, Kalifornien, Garcia unified the IBF and WBC Lightweight World Championships in his last bout by scoring unanimous decision victory over Robert Easter, Jr. Juli 28.

The 31-year-old first reached the championship ranks by blitzing through the featherweight and junior lightweight division, defeating Orlando Salido, Juan Manuel Lopez, Roman Martinez and Juan Carlos Burgos to establish himself as a star in the sport. Garcia has been on a fast track since ending a nearly 2-1/2-year hiatus with a knockout victory over Elios Rojas in 2016. After the victory over Rojas, Garcia scored a KO victory over Dejan Zlaticanin for the WBC lightweight championship in January 2017, before defeating four-division champion Adrien Broner in July and then captured a title at 140-pounds by dropping and defeating Sergey Lipinets last March.

In my career I’ve always sought to fight the best in boxing and this fight against Errol Spence Jr. is just that,” , sagte Garcia. “I want to be known as one of the all-time greats and what better way to do that than to win a welterweight title and become a five-division world champion. I have a tremendous amount of respect for Errol and what he’s accomplished, but I fully expect to leave the ring at AT&T Stadium with the welterweight world title. This is a match that I’ve been looking forward to for a long time and I plan on giving the fans a performance they’ll never forget.

The 22-year-old Benavidez (20-0, 17 KOs) became the youngest fighter to ever win a super middleweight title in 2017 when he defeated Ronald Gavril at just 20-years-old. Die Bekämpfung von Phoenix, Benavidez’s older brother Jose is also a pro fighter who challenged Terrence Crawford last year. Benavidez most recently won a rematch against Gavril last February, and as WBCChampion in Recesshe will look to reclaim his belt against the winner of the Anthony Dirrell vs. Avni Yildirim bout for the vacant title on February 23.

Born in Detroit but fighting out of Las Vegas, Die Liebe (24-2-1, 13 KOs) has long been amongst the top contenders at super middleweight and most recently lost a decision to Peter Quillin in August. The 31-year-old had been previously unbeaten in seven bouts heading into the contest against Quillin.

Currently riding a nine-fight knockout streak, Nery (28-0, 24 KOs) will look to get one step closer to a fight to regain a bantamweight title when he steps into the ring March 16. The 24-year-old from Tijuana, Mexico twice traveled to Japan and stopped Shinsuke Yamanaka in WBC title fights. In 2018 he stopped Jason Canoy and Renson Robles heading into his U.S. debut against Arroyo.

A 2008 Olympian for his home country of Puerto Rico, Arroyo (18-2. 8 KOs) captured a 115-pound championship with a technical decision over Arthur Villanueva in their 2015 clash. After dropping decisions against Rau’shee Warren and Jerwin Ancajas, the 33-year-old most recently defeated Sander Diaz last June.

An exciting brawler inside the ring, Arreola (37-5-1, 32 KOs) is well-known for challenging the best heavyweights in the sport throughout his career, and for becoming a popular attraction in and around his native Los Angeles for his fighting style and persona. The 37-year-old faced the likes of Vitali Klitschko, Tomasz Adamek, and Bermane Stiverne, before challenging Deontay Wilder for his title in 2016. After a brief retirement, Arreola returned to stop Maurenzo Smith last December.

Unbeaten and fighting out of Louisville, Augustin (17-0-1, 12 KOs) will face his toughest and most experienced test to date in Arreola. Geboren in Haiti, Augustin turned pro in 2014 and has steadily climbed up the heavyweight rankings.

BROOKLYN (Juli 30, 2017) – Drei-Teilung Weltmeister Mikey Garcia kept his undefeated record intact with a dominant 12-round performance against four-division world champion Adrien Broner im Main Event von Showtime Championship Boxing, Saturday on SHOWTIME from Barclays Center, die Heimat von BROOKLYN BOXEN®.
In what could be considered one of the best performances of his career, Garcia (37-0, 30 KO) won a unanimous decision by scores of 117-111 und 116-112 zweimal.
“Wir trainierten für 10 Wochen, we had a great training camp and great sparring, we knew it was going to be a tough fight,” Sagte Garcia.
Garcia took the lead early on, showcasing fundamentally sound technique and backing Broner into the ropes midway through the second frame. A flurry of body shots put Broner in trouble in the second round. While Broner was able to stay on his feet, Garcia emerged with another round in his favor.
I think I controlled the fight in the early rounds and I kept the activity up,” Sagte Garcia. “Broner is a great fighter and he has great skills but I was the superior fighter heute Abend.”
Garcia showed a combination of jabs, power punches and body shots all night long. He cornered Broner on the ropes with a huge left hook halfway through the third frame, and backed him in to the ropes again with 39 Sekunden in der Runde verbleibenden. While Broner showed some movement in the fourth round and hit Garcia with a succession of 1-2 combinations, Garcia’s bodywork kept Broner at bay.
It was part of the strategy to be a little busier in this fight than in the fights I have previously had,” Sagte Garcia.
Broner (33-3, 24 KOs) looked to get back in the fight as he started the eighth round with a succession of sharp combinations, however his lack of consistency couldn’t withstand Garcia’s phenomenal body shots and overall punch output. Through eight rounds, Garcia had thrown a total of 500 Stanzen, while Broner had just thrown 291.
It was a good fight at the end of the day, I come to fight I come to win and I put my heart on the line,” Broner said. “But it was Tom & Jerry; I had to catch the mouse.
Although Garcia had amassed an early lead from the first three-quarters of the fight, Broner continued to walk through heavy fire from Garcia in an attempt to connect with a big punch and change the tide of the fight. While he was able to ignite the crowd and land several big punches over the final three rounds, none of it proved to be enough to slow down Garcia.
It was my timing, I’ve always said I have very good timing,” , sagte Garcia. “It is underestimated when you are outside the ring but once you get inside the ring with me, I’m a step ahead.
Unbesiegt Jermall Charlo (26-0, 20 KOs) made his debut at 160-pounds with a stoppage of Argentine contender Jorge Sebastian Heiland (29-5-2, 16 KOs) in the co-featured event of SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING. Der Stillstand kam 2:13 of the fourth round after Charlo delivered a devastating left hook followed by a big right to end the fight.
Charlo, Houston, Texas, dominated the pace from the beginning. He landed the sharper and more accurate punches throughout the fight, especially in the first round where he landed 50 percent of his power shots to Heiland’s 13 Prozent. Charlo’s straight right was his power weapon throughout the contest.
I felt good at this weight. I was in good shape all camp,” Said Charlo. “I just had to keep my composure in the ring. That’s always something I have to work on and I was able to do it.
After I dropped him the first time they said he fell on top of his ankle. That’s just part of the boxing game. I had to just stay consistent and get the work done.
Heiland, von Buenos Aires, Argentinien, had issues with his left leg after injuring his knee in the first round. His discomfort was clear in his awkward footwork and lack of power behind his punches. Referee Benjy Esteves had the doctor examine him twice throughout the fight, once before the third round and then again before the fourth.
I turned my left knee in the first round, but I did not want to give up,” said Heiland. “Ich habe versucht, alles geben, but it was not my night. I had bad luck but I am going to work harder than ever to get back and get another opportunity to achieve my dream and win a world title.
Charlo stayed focused on his game plan despite seeing his opponent injured. “Sometimes the injury can be a decoy, you never want to just jump in and think it’s part of his game plan,” Charlo said. “My coach told me to stay behind my jab like I did; continue to work and it’s going to come.
With this win, Charlo becomes a mandatory challenger for the WBC Middleweight World Championship.
I’m ready for anyone. I’m ready for whoever wants to fight me,” Charlo added. “Bring on the biggest names at 160. I’m the real Tommy Hearns. I feel it’s my turn and I’m going to go get it.
Schlagzeilen “SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING Prelims,” Schwergewicht Jarrell Miller (19-0-1, 17 KOs), von Brooklyn, N.Y., stopped former world title challenger Gerald Washington (18-2-1, 12 KOs) after eight-rounds.
Miller used his significant size advantage and effective power-punching to break down the former collegiate football player. Washington had some success early with his jab and body attack, but was not able to stay out of punching range of Miller
Washington surged in the sixth round with a series of power shots that staggered Miller, however the Brooklynite countered and further broke down Washington, who landed just 20% of his jabs overall.
Müller, who landed almost half of his power punches, continued the onslaught in the seventh and eight rounds, and while Washington was able to stay on his feet, he took enough punishment that his corner called the fight after the eighth round.
I definitely felt the ring rust,” sagte Miller, who was making his third appearance on SHOWTIME. “Gerald was very tough. It was a very good fight that had me thinking. My power was there, but I couldn’t put it together the way I wanted to today.
I took the hard way back coming in off of a layoff. Gerald definitely pushed me and motivated me. I had to rely on my brain and my power.
I knew there would be a give and take in this fight. It’s one thing to fight when you have stamina, it’s another to fight when you’re tired. I was trying to outthink him.
In dem sich öffnenden Kampf “SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING Prelimson Facebook Live, Irish sensation Katie Taylor (6-0, 4 KOs) gestoppt Jasmine Clarkson (4-9) after three rounds of action in the latter fighter’s U.S. Debüt.
The Olympic Gold medalist was dominant from the outset, stalking her opponent around the ring and consistently trapping her in the corner. Taylor was effective with both hands and did most of her work to the head of Clarkson. After three rounds of damage, Clarkson’s corner stopped the bout and gave Taylor her first stateside win as a pro.
It was a fantastic experience being my first time competing here in the U.S,” sagte Taylor. “There were definitely some nerves before the fight. It was great to go in there and get a stoppage.
I hope that I made some fans heute Abend. I loved hearing the Irish fans in the crowd. I hope that there will be even more next time I fight here. The more fights I have here in the U.S. desto besser.
I thought I performed pretty well. I definitely got caught with a few silly shots. I could have been cleaner but overall it was a good performance. I felt good and strong. I’ll be ready to get back in there as soon as possible.
Additional action saw former world champion Rau'shee Warren (15-2, 4 KOs) earn a unanimous decision victory over former champion McJoe Arroyo (17-2, 8 KOs) and became the mandatory challenger for the IBF Junior Bantamweight World Title.
Warren attacked the body throughout the bout and landed the cleaner, more effective punches over the 12-round contest. The judges concurred and gave him the decision by scores of 118-10 und 117-111 zweimal.
I would give myself a B+ for that performance,” said Warren. “I wanted to make sure to use my jab and I felt like it really helped me win the fight.
I feel really good at this weight. Now it’s time for me to go get a strap. I haven’t been at this weight since the Olympics. I want to get these titles and then go down to 112 pounds for another title. First I want to take care of Jerwin Ancajas.

Here is what the press conference participants had to say Thursday from Dream Hotel Downtown:

Adrien Broner

“Just know that I’ll be ready am Samstag Nacht. I’m not worried about how much he’ll weigh when we step into the ring. Ich bin zu allem bereit.

“Camp was tough, but it was great. I did a lot of things differently and made sure that I was doing everything right. I made sure not to cut any corners this camp.

“This is going to be a great fight for boxing. I’ve done my due diligence. I’m going to take care of business. I just know myself and know what I’m capable of.

“Every fight is a must-win in this sport. There’s no fight you go into with a loss on your mind. I’m going to put on a show am Samstag.

“I laugh when people write me off. I’m used to being the underdog coming from where I come from. People don’t know what I’ve been through to get to this point. I’m blessed to be where I’m at. Samstag night there will be a lot more room on the bandwagon.

“We’ll see who’s on the pound-for-pound list after Samstag Nacht. We could have fought years ago but the time is now and I’m ready.

“I’m glad that the Garcia team took this fight as quickly as we did. I’ve been taking everything seriously in Colorado. I know Mikey will be ready too. Robert Garcia definitely has some confidence from beating me with Marcos Maidana. But Mikey is not Maidana.

“I just don’t feel like Mikey will be able to do anything to stop me from getting the victory. I’m sure he’s confident too. After I make it look easy, I want everyone to write about it and say something good.

“I can make anybody quit in the ring. Mikey is no different. If I execute and stay focused, don’t be surprised. Ich bin bereit für diesen Kampf.

"Samstag is going to be a special day for me. My birthday is morgen. Ich bin fast 30. I want to dedicate this victory to my twin brother Andre. Seeing his smile will make it even more special for me.”

Mikey GARCIA

“I’m prepared to go 12 hard rounds with Adrien Broner. This is a high profile fight. Probably more than my other fights. It’s created a lot of buzz amongst fans and media. Everyone is anticipating a great fight. This is a great matchup that can take me to the next level.

“I don’t think that he’s going to be desperate but he knows that I’m not an easy opponent. That’s why he’s taken camp so seriously. I expect him to be at his best and be ready. He knows that if he beats me he can launch his career back to where it was.

“He’s a four-division world champion so clearly he has the skills. I need someone who is hungry and motivated to bring out the best in me. My main focus is getting the win by any means necessary.

“I’m going to lo look to box effectively and show that I’m the better fighter. We’re both smart fighters but neither of us will run from the other. When you have styles like ourselves, with two guys who like to exchange punches, you’re in for a great battle.

“I think Adrien will be fine with the weight. He’s a pro and he knows that he really has to make weight. He’s learned from his mistakes. Sometimes he jokes around but that’s just part of his character. He takes things a lot more seriously because he’s facing me.

“If I can get this win, I just want to keep moving forward and fulfilling my dreams. I want to be in huge fights consistently. This is a crossroads fight for both of us to get to that level.

“I’m very excited to be here. Brooklyn was very kind to me when I fought here last year. I expect the fans to be here and show up like they always do am Samstag. There are incredible boxing fans in New York.

“I’m here to prove that I’m back and stronger than ever. This is another opportunity to show the kind of fighter that I am. I won’t let Adrien Broner stand in my way. This is my chance to show the best version of myself.”

Charlo JERMALL

“I feel great and ready to make my debut at 160 Pfund. Camp has gone smoothly. I’m ready to dominate this division like I did 154 Pfund. My plan is to care of Heiland and then everything else will fall into line from there.

“This is a bigger, better and stronger version of Jermall Charlo. Everything has come together during camp. Ronnie Shields runs a great camp and I believe he’s continuing to bring the best out of me.

“I’m completely focused on this matchup. I know that I can’t get any of the big fights that I crave without taking care of Heiland. I’m going to break him down and if the knockout comes, I’ll make sure to take advantage.

“My hat is off to Adrien Broner and Mikey Garcia for bringing out all the fans and media for this great show. It’s a real thrill to be a part of this event.”

JORGE SEBASTIAN HEILAND

“I’m thankful to everyone who has welcomed me to New York. I’m happy to have this big opportunity and I’m 100 percent prepared for whatever Jermall Charlo brings. Jermall is a great fighter and I know that he is going to bring everything he has.

“I’ve had an amazing camp and I’ve never felt more prepared for an opportunity than this. I was very patient and I will take full advantage. My plan is to leave everything in the ring am Samstag.

“My team has been with me for a long time as I waited for this opportunity. Be ready because it’s going to be a battle and a great matchup am Samstag. You won’t want to miss it.”

GERALD WASHINGTON

“I came here to go to work. I’m going to shut that big mouth of his up. I hope someone is holding him accountable for all the words he’s been saying. You’re in there with a real one am Samstag Nacht. I’m going to welcome you to this game for real.

“I’m sure he’ll try to bring some extra pressure. I’m going to introduce him to a new class of boxing. I’ve taken a lot from my experiences in training camp with Wladimir Klitschko and in the ring with Deontay Wilder. You’ll see the difference am Samstag.

“I’m still growing in this sport. I’ve been learning on the job this whole time and each experience just means so much to me. I wanted to take on a tough undefeated fighter because I knew that it would make it a great fight.

“This is most definitely ending inside of the distance. I’m coming after him. I’m going to wear him out. Then it’s time to take him out.”

JARRELL MILLER

“If you don’t know who “Big Baby” is, you soon will. I’ve never seen anyone get knocked out and get praised for it, but that’s what people are doing for Washington. I’ve never been hurt in my life in the ring and I’ll prove it am Samstag.

“This guy said he’s going to introduce me to big-time boxing. I’ve been in front of huge crowds and I’ve come through with knockout wins. I’ll be more than ready am Samstag Nacht.

“I’ve got big plans in this sport and this is only the start. Brooklyn fans loved their hometown heavyweights Mike Tyson and Riddick Bowe. I’m going to be next in that line and this city will love me.”

KATIE TAYLOR

“It’s incredible to be here in New York and to make my US debut on this incredible card. It’s truly a privilege.

“Training has gone so well and I’m so happy that SHOWTIME will stream the fight. It’s incredible for my fans overseas and all fans of women’s boxing.

“I hope to make a strong statement this weekend and I hope everyone enjoys the fight am Samstag Nacht. "

LEONARD ELLERBE, CEO von Mayweather Promotions

“This is definitely a must-see event am Samstag Nacht. Two great fighters, fighting at the right time, both in the prime of their careers. Es wird eine tolle Show sein.

“One of the main reasons why boxing is going to the next level is because the people at the top have a vision of seeing great fights. We have another great example of that an diesem Samstag Nacht im Barclays Center

“Anytime you have a great event, it’s going to start with the undercard. We have a lot of young fighters looking to show off their skills. We’re thrilled to have our very own Richardson Hitchins and Kenny Robles competing in exciting undercard action.”

Lou DiBella, Präsident der DiBella Entertainment

“A month from now there will be a huge event in Las Vegas, aber doch two days from now there is the best fight card of the summer, the best fight of the summer, and a great show from top to bottom at Barclays Center in Brooklyn.

“This is a great summer of boxing for SHOWTIME and it’s great to be in this room and see all the great attention that this fight card is getting. This is one of the best representations that we can have of our sport. This is one of the most stacked cards I’ve ever been involved with.

“There are a lot of good reasons to get a ticket and come to Barclays Center am Samstag Nacht. There will be a strong Irish presence on the card Samstag with both Katie Taylor and Noel Murphy entering the ring.”

STEPHEN ESPINOZA, Executive VP & Hauptgeschäftsführer, Showtime Sports

"Samstag is a testament to SHOWTIME’s commitment to boxing and boxing fans. We’ve worked hard to deliver the most important bouts from around the world. We have three separate telecasts, five fights, across two continents.

“We will also be streaming Katie Taylor’s U.S. Debüt. People know Katie from reputation alone, and we thought it was important to have her fight seen. The heavyweight fight between Gerald Washington and Jarrell Miller is another one that deserves to be seen and I think it could be the fight that steals the show.

“The main event has two of the brightest young stars in boxing. They both feel like they’ve been on this stage for a while. You know their resumes and you have to give them all of the credit in the world for taking this fight. Neither had to take this fight, but it will be one of the most exciting matchups of the summer.

“We have had 19 live presentations and 15 world title fights so far and we’re proud of what we’ve done accomplished so far. Boxing has had a great year and much of that has been carried by SHOWTIME boxing. That will continue an diesem Samstag."

STEP, TEXAS (Juli 18, 2015) - Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. verdient einen einstimmigen Beschluss (97-92, 98-91, 96-93) über Marcos Reyes im Main Event von Showtime Championship Boxing am Samstag vor 9,245 an der Don Haskins Zentrum in El Paso, Texas.

 

Reyes war der aktivere Kämpfer - verdoppelte er Chavez Ausgang - sondern einfach konnte seinen größeren Gegner nicht schaden. Nach einem Verlust im Halbschwergewicht im April, Chavez beschlossen zu versuchen, im Supermittelgewicht werben.

 

Chavez (49-2-1, 32 KOs), , die zum ersten Mal mit Trainer Robert Garcia kämpfen, schien in der Lage, seine Macht Schüsse am Willen zu landen, aber er seine Flecken lange Zeiträume der Inaktivität holen und hatte würde. Obwohl er mit einem neuen Trainer arbeiten, Chavez weiter voran planieren und kämpfte eine sehr ähnliche Kampf wie er gegen Andrezj Fonfara im April, diesmal gegen einen kleineren Gegner.

 

"Ich habe gewonnen. Dies ist groß für mich und Robert,"Chavez sagte,. "Ich kann es besser machen, aber ich gewonnen und das ist das Wichtigste. Ich werde am Kampf 168 Pfund. Stück für Stück, Ich werde in Gewicht erhalten. Wir wissen, dass wir viel besser Arbeit in der Turnhalle.

 

"In der dritten Runde ich verletzt meine linke Hand. Ich denke, es ist gebrochen, Ich weiß nicht. Ich werde den Doktor zu sehen. Bei allem Respekt für Reyes, wenn ich nicht meine Hand verletzt hätte ich ihn geschlagen haben.

 

"Ich für die besten Schläge verbunden ist, um das Kinn und Körper. Ich ihn verletzt, aber ich konnte ihn nicht beenden, weil ich verletzt meine Hand. Er warf eine Menge von Schlägen, verpasste aber eine Menge. Er verletzt mich nie. Ich fühlte mich jedes Mal landete ich tat ihm weh. "

 

Nach dem Kampf, Reyes (33-3, 24 KOs) predigte seinen Fall zu Showtime Reporter Jim Gray und wies darauf hin, das Gewicht Disparität.

 

"Ich glaube, ich gewann den Kampf. Ich zeigte ihm, wie ich box,", Sagte Reyes. "Ich habe das Gewicht an 168 und er nicht Gewicht zu machen. Er ist wie ein Halbschwergewicht Kampf mit einem Mittelgewicht.

 

"Ich war gegen alle Widerstände - der Schiedsrichter, das Gewicht, alles. Ich glaube, ich gewann den Kampf. Es ist OK - Ich tat mein Bestes. "

 

In der Ko-Funktion, McJoe Arroyo hat eine technische Entscheidung über Arthur Villanueva, um den vakanten IBF-Junior-Bantamgewicht Weltmeisterschaft zu gewinnen, nachdem der Kampf wurde gestoppt at 2:10 in der 10th Runde wegen einer tiefen Schnittwunde über Villanueva das rechte Auge. Der Kampf ging zu der Richter Scorecards und Villanueva war vor 97-92, 98-91 nachdem die Punktrichter werteten den 10th.

 

Die aus Puerto Rico Arroyo (17-0, 8 KOs) wurde der dritte Kämpfer von der Insel, um eine 115-Pfund-Titel zu gewinnen.

 

Die Linkshänder-Rechtshänder matchup war manchmal sehr technisch und übel gefüllt. Schiedsrichter Rafael Ramos abgezogen einen Punkt gegen Villanueva (27-1, 14 KOs) für die Leitung mit dem Kopf in der sechsten. In einem anderen Kampf in der sechsten, eine tiefe Wunde öffnete sich über dem rechten Auge von Villanueva, die letztlich führte zum Stillstand. Ramos entschieden, dass der Konflikt, die den Schnitt geöffnet unbeabsichtigt war.

 

Dr. Brian August inspiziert den Schnitt Mitte der siebten Runde wieder nach dem achten. Ramos wieder für August signalisiert, um den Schnitt in die zu inspizieren 10th und entschieden, dass es zu tief, um fortzufahren war. In einem Interview mit Jim Gray, August erklärt, dass er stoppte den Kampf im besten Interesse der Kämpfer, aber dass Villanueva behauptete er, die keine Sichtprobleme.

 

"Als er eintrat, wurde er Eingabe niedrig. Er widerstreitenden Köpfen viel,"Arroyo sagte,. "Vor dem Kampf, Ich wusste, dass er ein harter Kämpfer. Alle philippinischen Kämpfer kommen, zu kämpfen. Ich wusste, dass ich bereit zu sein 12 Runde, Boxen oder Schlägereien. Es war eine wettbewerbsfähige Kampf aber wir arbeitete härter jede Runde. "

 

Wenn von Gray fragte, ob es war schwer, seinen Rhythmus zu finden, Arroyo reagiert, "Das ist eine normale Sache, wenn ein Rechtsausleger kämpft gegen einen Rechtshänder. Wir waren beide versuchen, glatt und intelligent zu sein. Das geschieht, wenn zwei Boxer mit dem gleichen Stil zu kämpfen. "

 

Villanueva widersprach der Stillstand und forderte einen sofortigen Rückkampf.

 

"Es war eine grobe Kampf und sehr hart für mich nach dem Kopfstoß,"Villanueva, sagte. "Ich dachte, ich gewann den Kampf. Ich wollte nicht, dass sie den Kampf zu stoppen, weil es gerade erst in den Fluss. Ich bin enttäuscht, mit dem Stillstand. Ich weiß, ich kann ihn schlagen, und ich will einen sofortigen Rückkampf. "

 

In der Eröffnung Kampf des Abends, ungeschlagen 140-Pfund-Anwärter klopfte Fernando Angulo mit einem donnernden Recht auf eine obligatorische Schuss auf den Gewinner des geplanten Herbst Showdown zwischen Viktor Postol und Lucas Matthysse um den vakanten WBC Super Lightweight-Weltmeisterschaft zu verdienen.

 

Es schien ein schwieriger Kampf für Imam sein (18-0, 15 KOs), aber er war immer in Kontrolle und höchst präzise, Landung 54 Prozent seiner Macht Schläge im Vergleich zu nur 17 für Angulo (28-10, 16 KOs). Imam beendete den Kampf in brillanter Art und Weise mit einem leistungsstarken Recht auf Angulo Ohr, seinen Gegner zu zwingen, von Angesicht mich auf der Leinwand und der Schiedsrichter fallen werden sofort auf den Wettbewerb zu stoppen :56.

 

"Ich ziehe meinen Hut vor. Er ist ein guter Gegner,"Imam sagte,. "Ich traf ihn nur mit einem großen Schuss auf sein Ohr und er fertig war.

 

"Diese Jungs bekommen die Gurte und halten Sie es einfach. Ich werde den Gürtel zu bekommen und halten Sie ihn mit Stolz. "

 

Sagte Imam Promotor und Hall of Famer Don King, "Es war eine hervorragende Leistung - genau das, was ich erwartet hatte, und mehr. Sie sollten sich nicht zu unterschätzen, aber Pontifikat, wenn es um die "Young Master kommt.’ Wir werden die Gürtel und alle, die vor uns kommt zu nehmen.”
