(Février 14, 2019) – Champion du monde IBF poids welter invaincu Errol “La Vérité” Spence Jr. defends his title against undefeated four-division champion Mikey Garcia in a highly anticipated and historic showdown for pound-for-pound supremacy that headlines a Premier Boxing Champions on FOX Sports Pay-Per-View event on Saturday, Mars 16 d'AT&T Stadium à Arlington, Texas.

Spence and Garcia will go face-to-face on Saturday, Février 16 at a press conference in Los Angeles that will air live on FOX from the Microsoft Theater at L.A. Live in downtown Los Angeles beginning at 4:30 p.m. ET/1:30 p.m. PT. The press conference is open to ticket holders for the Leo Santa Cruz vs. Rafael Rivera featherweight championship fight.

Mardi, Février 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,” a déclaré Tom Brown, Président de 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,'” Schaefer a déclaré Richard, Président-directeur général de Sport Ringstar. “En plus de l'événement principal, 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. au 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,” dit 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 léger, lightweight and junior welterweight. He now eyes a welterweight title against the consensus class of the division in Spence. Fighting out of Moreno Valley, Californie, Garcia unified the IBF and WBC Lightweight World Championships in his last bout by scoring unanimous decision victory over Robert Easter, Jr. sur Juillet 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,” a déclaré 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. Fighting out of 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 WBC “Champion in Recess” he 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, Aimer (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. En 2018 he stopped Jason Canoy and Renson Robles heading into his U.S. debut against Arroyo.

Un 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 choc. 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. Né en Haïti, Augustin turned pro in 2014 and has steadily climbed up the heavyweight rankings.

BROOKLYN (Juillet 30, 2017) – Champion du monde en trois divisions Mikey Garcia kept his undefeated record intact with a dominant 12-round performance against four-division world champion Adrien Broner dans l'événement principal de Showtime Championship Boxing, Saturday on SHOWTIME from Barclays Center, la maison de BROOKLYN BOXE®.
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 et 116-112 deux fois.
“Nous nous sommes entraînés pour 10 semaines, we had a great training camp and great sparring, we knew it was going to be a tough fight,” Garcia a déclaré.
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,” Garcia a déclaré. “Broner is a great fighter and he has great skills but I was the superior fighter ce soir.”
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 seconds remaining in the round. 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,” Garcia a déclaré.
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 poinçons, 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,” a déclaré Garcia. “It is underestimated when you are outside the ring but once you get inside the ring with me, I’m a step ahead.”
Invaincu 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. L'arrêt est venu à 2:13 of the fourth round after Charlo delivered a devastating left hook followed by a big right to end the fight.
Charlo, de 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 pour cent. Charlo’s straight right was his power weapon throughout the contest.
“I felt good at this weight. I was in good shape all camp,” Saïd 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, de Buenos Aires, Argentine, 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,” Ledit Heiland. “Je ai essayé de tout donner, 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.”
Headlining the “SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING Prelims,” poids lourd Jarrell Miller (19-0-1, 17 KOs), de 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.
Meunier, 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,” dit Miller, who was making his third appearance on SHOWTIME. “Gerald was very tough. It was a very good fight that had me thinking. Mon pouvoir était là, 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.”
Dans le combat d'ouverture de “SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING Prelims” on Facebook Live, Irish sensation Katie Taylor (6-0, 4 KOs) arrêté Jasmine Clarkson (4-9) after three rounds of action in the latter fighter’s U.S. début.
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,” M. 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 ce soir. 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. le meilleur.
“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 et 117-111 deux fois.
“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.”
Samedi fights will replay on Sunday, Juillet 30 à 8:35 a.m. ET on SHOWTIME and on Lundi, Juillet 31 à 10:30 p.m. ET/PT sur SHOWTIME EXTREME et sera disponible sur SHOWTIME sur DEMAND® et SHOWTIME EN TOUT TEMPS®.

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

ADRIEN BRONER

“Just know that I’ll be ready Samedi nuit. I’m not worried about how much he’ll weigh when we step into the ring. Je suis prêt à tout.

“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. Je vais m'occuper des affaires. 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 Samedi.

“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. Samedi night there will be a lot more room on the bandwagon.

“We’ll see who’s on the pound-for-pound list after Samedi nuit. 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. Je suis prêt pour ce combat.

"Samedi is going to be a special day for me. My birthday is demain. Je suis presque 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 Samedi. 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 livres. Camp has gone smoothly. I’m ready to dominate this division like I did 154 livres. 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 Samedi.

“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 Samedi. 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 Samedi nuit. 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 Samedi.

“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 Samedi.

“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 Samedi nuit.

“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 Samedi nuit. "

LEONARD Ellerbe, PDG de Promotions Mayweather

“This is definitely a must-see event Samedi nuit. Two great fighters, fighting at the right time, both in the prime of their careers. Ça va être un grand spectacle.

“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 ce samedi nuit au 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.”

DiBella LOU, Président de DiBella Entertainment

“A month from now there will be a huge event in Las Vegas, mais 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 Samedi nuit. There will be a strong Irish presence on the card Samedi with both Katie Taylor and Noel Murphy entering the ring.”

STEPHEN ESPINOZA, Vice-président exécutif & Directeur Général, Sports Showtime

"Samedi 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. début. 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 ce samedi."

BRETT YORMARK, PDG de Brooklyn Sports & Divertissement

“This card is our fourth major card this year. It’s been an incredible year for BROOKLYN BOXING. We’ve made a commitment to bring the best boxing to the borough. With all of our partners help, we have been able to accomplish that.

“We welcome both of these fighters back to Brooklyn. They’ve both built fan bases and we’re excited to see both of them back in the building and in the ring Samedi.

“The whole night of boxing is going to be incredible. I welcome Jermall Charlo to Brooklyn, your brother had a great night in April and I’m sure you will follow in his footsteps.”

STEP, TEXAS (Juillet 18, 2015) - Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. gagné une décision unanime (97-92, 98-91, 96-93) sur Marcos Reyes dans l'événement principal de Showtime Championship Boxing Samedi devant 9,245 au Centre Don Haskins à El Paso, Texas.

 

Reyes was the more active fighter – he doubled Chavez’s output – but simply couldn’t hurt his larger opponent. Following a loss at light heavyweight last April, Chavez a décidé de tenter de faire campagne au super-moyens.

 

Chavez (49-2-1, 32 KOs), qui se battait pour la première fois avec l'entraîneur Robert Garcia, semblait être en mesure d'atterrir ses coups en puissance à volonté, however he would pick his spots and had long bouts of inactivity. Although he was working with a new trainer, Chavez a continué à raser avant et mené une lutte très similaire, comme il l'a fait contre Andrezj Fonfara en Avril, cette fois contre un adversaire plus petit.

 

“I won. This is big for me and Robert,” Chavez said. “I can do it better, but I won and that is the important thing. I’m going to fight at 168 livres. Little by little, I’m going to get down in weight. We know we’re doing much better work in the gym.

 

“In the third round I hurt my left hand. I think it’s broken, Je ne sais pas. I’ll see the doctor. With all respect to Reyes, si je ne l'avais pas mal à ma main, je l'aurais assommé.

 

“I connected on the best punches to the chin and the body. Je lui ai fait mal, mais je ne pouvais pas le finir parce que je me suis blessé la main. Il jeta un grand nombre de coups de poing, mais a manqué beaucoup. Il ne m'a jamais blessé. Je sentais que je l'ai blessé chaque fois que je suis tombé ".

 

Après le combat, Reyes (33-3, 24 KOs) prêché son cas à Showtime journaliste Jim Gray et souligné la disparité de poids.

 

«Je sens que je gagné le combat. Je lui ai montré comment je Box,"Reyes a déclaré. «Je faisais le poids au 168 et il n'a pas fait le poids. Il est comme un poids lourd légers lutte contre un poids moyen.

 

«Je suis contre toute attente - l'arbitre, le poids, tout. Je pense que je gagné le combat. Il est OK - je l'ai fait de mon mieux. "

 

Dans la co-métrage, McJoe Arroyo a remporté une décision technique sur Arthur Villanueva de gagner le Championnat du Monde IBF junior coq vacant après le combat a été arrêté à 2:10 dans le 10e tour en raison d'une profonde entaille sur l'œil droit de Villanueva. La lutte est allé à des tableaux de bord des juges et Villanueva était en avance 97-92, 98-91 après que les juges ont marqué le 10e.

 

Le Rica Arroyo Puerto (17-0, 8 KOs) est devenu le troisième combattant de l'île à remporter un titre de 115 livres.

 

L'affrontement gaucher-droitier était parfois très technique et faute rempli. Arbitre Rafael Ramos déduit un point contre Villanueva (27-1, 14 KOs) pour conduire avec sa tête dans la sixième. Dans un affrontement différent dans la sixième, une entaille profonde ouvert sur l'œil droit de Villanueva qui a finalement conduit à l'arrêt. Ramos a statué que l'affrontement qui a ouvert la coupe était involontaire.

 

Dr. Brian Août inspecté la mi-chemin de coupe à travers le septième round et de nouveau après la huitième. Ramos nouveau panneau pour signaler Août pour inspecter la coupe dans le 10e et a jugé qu'il était trop profonde pour continuer. Dans une interview avec Jim Gray, Août a déclaré qu'il a arrêté le combat dans le meilleur intérêt du combattant, mais que Villanueva a affirmé qu'il avait des pas de problèmes de vue.

 

"Quand il entrait, il entrait bas. Il a été détonnant têtes beaucoup,"Arroyo a déclaré. "Avant le combat, Je savais qu'il était un combattant résistant. Tous les combattants philippins viennent à se battre. Je savais que je devais être prêt pour 12 tours, la boxe ou des bagarres. Ce fut un combat concurrentiel mais nous avons travaillé plus fort à chaque tour ".

 

Lorsqu'on lui a demandé par Gray si il était difficile de trouver son rythme, Arroyo a répondu, "Voilà une chose normale quand un gaucher bat un droitier. Nous étions tous les deux essayons d'être habile et intelligent. That happens when two boxers with the same style fight.”

 

Villanueva était en désaccord avec l'arrêt et a appelé à une revanche immédiate.

 

"Ce fut un combat rude et très difficile pour moi après le coup de boule,” Villanueva said. «Je pensais avoir gagné le combat. I didn’t want them to stop the fight because it was just getting into the flow. I’m disappointed with the stoppage. Je sais que je peux le battre et je veux une revanche immédiate ».

 

Dans le combat d'ouverture de la soirée, invaincu 140 livres prétendante assommé Fernando Angulo avec un droit tonitruant pour gagner un coup obligatoire au vainqueur de l'épreuve de force de chute prévu entre Viktor Postol et Lucas Matthysse pour le Championnat du Monde Super WBC vacant léger.

 

Il semblait être un combat difficile pour Imam (18-0, 15 KOs), mais il était toujours en contrôle et suprêmement précise, atterrissage 54 pour cent de ses coups de puissance comparativement à seulement 17 pour Angulo (28-10, 16 KOs). Imam ended the bout in brilliant fashion with a powerful right to Angulo’s ear, forçant son adversaire à tomber face-avant à la toile et l'arbitre d'arrêter instantanément le concours à :56.

 

“I take my hat off. He’s a good opponent,” Imam said. “I just hit him with a big shot on his ear and he was done.

 

“These guys get the belts and just hold it. I’m going to get the belt and hold it with pride.”

 

Promoteur de l'Imam dit et Hall of Famer Don King, «Ce fut une excellente performance - exactement ce que je pensais et plus. You should never underestimate but pontificate when it comes to the ‘Young Master.’ We will take the belts and anyone that comes in front of us.”

“Je ai investi six ans dans Carl et ça a été l'expérience la plus agréable et gratifiante de ma vie. Shane est devenu un entraîneur de boxe incroyable et je suis extrêmement fier de lui.”

 

SHANE MCGUIGAN, Entraîneur de Frampton

“Je l'habitude de boîte avec Carl comme un amateur et quand mon père (Barry) l'habitude de me demander qui je pensais être le meilleur pro sur l'équipe irlandaise, je dirais, 'Il est Carl Frampton, il a un style de classe mondiale.’

 

“Il ya cinq ans, mon père m'a demandé de tenir les plaquettes pour Carl une couple de fois et il vient gélifiés. Ici, nous sommes aujourd'hui. Nous travaillons très bien ensemble et je sens que je trouvai mon fort comme entraîneur.

 

“Gonzalez est pas mou mais je ne pense pas qu'il est sur le niveau de Carl. Je pense que Carl va l'assommer dans un combat passionnant. Ceci est à propos de faire une déclaration. La prochaine chose que vous savez que nous aurons les combats super-massifs à venir.”

Alejandro González, Père de Gonzalez & Ancien champion du monde

“Les mots disent les gens de cette lutte, ils ne sont que des mots. La lutte va être samedi et tout le monde va voir ce qui se passe.

 

“Mon fils est très bien préparés et il va gagner. Nous avons tout fait droit dans le camp. Il est temps de mon fils et il vient de gagner.

 

“Ils ont eu le mauvais adversaire pour Frampton. Mon fils est un combattant très fort et tout le monde verra le samedi.

 

“I love Mexique et ce combat va être pour le Mexique.”
