PROVIDENCE (Jiyè 21, 2015) – Lagè a nan mo kontinye ant reprezantan ki nan undefeated Boksè mondyal la Òganizasyon (WBO) jinyò chanpyon middleweightDemetrius “Boo Boo” Andrade (21-0, 14 Ko) ak ansyen de-tan titlist super middleweight Anthony “Man la” Mundine (47-7, 27 Ko).

 

Dènye Samdi swa Ekip Andrade bay yon lage laprès konsènan yon akò li swadizan Ekip Mundine te renegat sou pou yon batay ant de konbatan yo susmansyone pwochen mwa nan Ostrali. Ekip Mundine bay yon deklarasyon yè, nan ki li te deklare ke li pa janm te dakò nan yon kontra, lajman paske li enkli yon opsyon twa-batay sou Mundine.

 

Jodi a, Ekip Andrade Okontre ak yon deklarasyon nan pwòp li yo klarifye sitiyasyon ézitan sa a. “Se pou yo fè sa a parfe klè,” Manadjè Andrade a Epi Farris di. “Bò Mundine a se koube fè sa yo ak kache sa a verite a nan yon tantativ nan do soti nan batay la. Their recent press release about our side asking for three options on Anthony Mundine isn’t true. I just discussed this with Demetrius’ pwomotè (Joe DeGuardia, Star boksè & Artie Pelullo, Pwomosyon Banner) and there was never a three-fight option on Mundine in the proposed contract. There was simply a rematch option clause, ki konpreyansyon mwen, garanti Anthony Mundine yon kantite lajan konsiderab nan lajan ak minimes enpòtan. Tout moun nan akò yo pwopoze te bay pèp Mundine a 100-pousan nan mache nan televizyon Ostralyen, ki se yon gwo opòtinite pou revni adisyonèl pi lwen pase valiz l '. Boul la se nan tribinal yo ak li te gen pou yon semèn kounye a. Yo pa te voye nou yon counter-ofri e ke, malerezman, di m 'ki kan li tou senpleman pa vle batay la rive.”

 

Farris plis te ajoute, “Osi lwen ke deklarasyon ki fèt pa manadjè Mundine a (Ben Thompson) ki Anthony te ofri 'dola ki ba’ al goumen Demetrius, Se valiz Anthony Mundine a peye pa pwomotè LI, PA pwomotè nou an. We have absolutely nothing to do with that. I can tell you this, menm si, Anthony Mundine te ofri plis lajan pase Demetrius Andrade pou sa a batay. Mundine ta gen yon opòtinite pou goumen pou tit la nan mond nan lakou l 'pou anpil plis lajan pase chanpyon nan lemonn te resevwa. Ki jan pi plis li te espere nou bay?”

Andrade rete espwa ke Mundine ap aksepte defi an ak siyen yon kontra al goumen l 'pi vit ke posib. “Mwen panse ke fanatik Ostralyen ta renmen wè de-tan Mondyal Champion yo goumen chanpyon aktyèl la Mondyal nan peyi lakay li,” Andrade kòmante. “Mwen vle sa a batay rive. I don’t care about a rematch clause. Reyalite a se, si Mundine bat m ', li merite yo ale goumen moun ki va li vle. Mwen te di pwomotè mwen an debarase m de opsyon nan rematch, epi fè sa a batay rive.

“Mwen te fè kèk erè nan tan lontan an – Bondye konnen tout moun fè – but I’m doing everything I can to get back in the ring and give fans what they want. They’ve been great to me and they deserve to see fights they really want. Èspere ke, yo pral byento jwenn yo jwi l ap gade yon gwo batay ant mwen menm ak Mundine.”

“Nou te dakò nan tèm ak pwomotè Mundine a men te tande pa gen anyen tounen depi lè sa a,” 27-ane-fin vye granmoun Andrade eksplike. “Mundine rele soti (Floyd) Mayweather men li pa pral pran yon lejitim WBO Mondyal Tit batay nan 154 liv nan pwòp peyi li? Same old story, Mwen devine. Tout moun vle yon bagay jiskaske yo gen yon chans yo reyèlman jwenn li.”

“Ekip Anthony Mundine a te gen youn nan moun ki atansyon-sa-ou-ta-pou moman,” Manadjè Andrade a Epi Farris note, “nan ki Demetrius aksepte tout nan tèm yo mande yo, ki gen ladan Demetrius mete kanpe senti WBO l 'al goumen Mundine sou pwòp tèritwa lakay li. After previously agreeing to fight Andrade, Ekip Mundine a gen kounye a te gen yon chanjman nan kè, epi yo aparamman ap chèche al goumen yon opozan pi piti.”

Andrade pa te goumen depi li detwi WBO Pa gen. 1 obligatwa contender Brian Rose (25-1-1) nan sèt jij sou jen 14, 2014. Unable to lure either Mayweather or Miguel Cotto nan yon mega-batay, ni WBO Pa gen. 1 contender Sayil “CANELO” Alvarez,oswa menm yon inifikasyon ak WBA chanpyon Erislandy “Rèv Ameriken an” Lara, 2008 U.S. Zolenpik Andrade kwè ke li te finalman te gen yon defans tit fèmen nan pou mwa pwochen kont ansyen de-tan mond super middleweight chanpyon Mundine.

 

“Mwen pa konprann,” yon Andrade fristre ajoute. “Nou ofri sa a Guy yon chans pou pou genyen chanpyona a nan mond lan nan peyi lakay li epi li gade pou yon fason soti olye pou? What kind of fighter is he? Any real fighter would do anything for that kind of an opportunity.

Andre Ward (27-0, 14 KO nan) – Olympic Gold medaye ak WBA Super Middleweight Mondyal Champion

"Mwen pa te santi sa a santi, goumen semèn nan Oakland, nan yon ti moman. Semèn pase a emosyon sa te kòmanse mete nan. Mwen te konsantre ak ap resevwa pare, men semèn batay se jis diferan. Pa gen pwoblèm grandè a nan batay la ou ta dwe santi tankou sa a. Mwen eksite. Mwen itilize yo sa a kalite presyon. "

 

"Smith se yon chanpyon Ewopeyen an. Li te resevwa pa gen okenn pwoblèm vwayaje. Li pa pran swen si li emoraji. Si ou frape l 'desann, li te vini pou pou genyen, ak Se poutèt sa nou te chwazi l '. Nou pa t 'chwazi l' paske te gen anyen ki mou sou li. Nou te chwazi l ', paske li se yon konkiran difisil. Mwen byen kontan ke tout nan yon toudenkou li te kòmanse pale tankou li te fè semèn pase a. Mwen te prèske ap resevwa kouri kite ke li pa te di anyen. Mwen se konsa itilize yo mesye pale yon anpil. Se konsa,, li te finalman te kòmanse pale ak mwen te renmen li. Li pa ke mwen te bezwen plis motivasyon, men li la jis yon ti jan ti kras anplis. "

 

"Mwen vini tounen nan nan de revokasyon. Pandan sa a kan sot pase, Mwen te santi m yon anpil pi bon pase mwen gen nan tan lontan an. M 'te fè plis. Zepòl mwen santi l pi fò ak Mwen panse ke ou tout yo ale nan wè ke nan Samdi swa. "

 

"Chak avyon de gè gen pwòp yo lit pèsonèl. Ou pa ka predi kisa ki moun defi ak lit yo pral yo dwe, epi ou pa ka predi konbyen tan yo yo pral yo dwe. Mwen te kapab pèsevere nan ki. Pòl Smith se pa sèlman goumen Andre Ward koupe nan yon kan uit semèn, li te batay Andre Ward koupe nan tout bagay mwen jis te ale nan. Tout fristrasyon yo, tout reta yo, tout moun sa yo emosyon ... li te goumen ke nèg vini Samdi swa. "

 

"Chak batay pou m 'se yon Bowl Super. Mwen pa te pèdi nan yon tan trè lontan. Nou pare pou tout bagay ki Pòl Smith ki pral gen ak tout bagay li te ale nan pote nan tablo a. Li se yon bagay bèl lè goumen semèn vini alantou epi ou konnen ke ou pa t 'koupe nenpòt ki kwen. Chak rep konte pou m 'nan sa a kan. Chak wonn konte pou mwen. Mwen pouse sot pase sa m 'te vle antrenè m' fè. Pa t 'gen limyè sou sa a kan. Mwen tande kan Smith la pale yon anpil sou rouye bag ak si se sa yo ap bankè sou, yo te plan an jwèt sa ki mal vini mwa jen 20. "

 

"Plan an jwèt se Razzle, avegle je, gen eksplozif ak fè li tout. Mwen gen yo dwe okouran kòm yon pwofesyonèl. Virgil te di m 'sa a kan antye' Pa gen okenn plan jwèt pou Pòl Smith. Se pou l 'vin jwenn ou. Ou ve yo te boksè lontan ase ke lè ou jwenn nan bag la ou pral konnen ki sa yo fè. Nou pral fè ajisteman sou wout la, men gen se pa yon plan jwèt espesifik pou Pòl Smith. Mwen panse ke ou yo ale nan wè tout bagay vini Samdi swa. Mwen pa pwal fòse li. Mwen jis ale nan kite l koule. "

 

"Vil sa a se yon gwo tan batay. Li pa jis Oakland. Li nan San Francisco. Li nan Haywayd. Li nan Stockton. Li nan tout lavil yo ki antoure. Nenpòt ki lè yo gen youn nan pwòp yo nan tèt aktualite a, yo sipòte ak se sa ki mwen renmen sou zòn nan Bay. "

 

 

Paul Smith (35-5, 20 KO nan) – Ansyen Mondyal Tit pwovokatè

"Dènye sesyon an jimnastik gwo mwen te gen te sa a Vandredi sot pase. Tout mwen te kapab pètèt fè te pase pandan kan fòmasyon m '. Semèn ki sot pase se tout sou ap detann, repoze, ap resevwa nivo enèji ou leve, li pwa ou desann. "

 

"Lè [antrenè] Joe [Gallagher] vin nan [Oakland], nou pral chita epi li pral pwen soti bagay sa yo dwat lwen ke nou bezwen nan travay soti ... sa ki bezwen pouse, plan an jwèt. Konsantre sou plan an jwèt ak taktik. Nou pral gade kasèt nan Ward ak diseke yo. "

 

"Li nan gwo gen moun ki nan jimnastik la jodi a. Yè, nou rive Gym wa a fè yon travay deyò epi yo li te yon ti jan pi plis trankil. Li bon gen yon atmosfè bon tankou sa a nan jimnastik la. Tout moun konnen gen nan yon batay semèn sa a ak li nan gwo ki gen timoun yo (soti nan ti gason ak tifi Club la nan Oakland) isit la. "

 

"Mwen renmen Oakland. Li difisil, men li la difisil kote mwen menm mwen soti twò. Liverpool se difisil. Mwen vrèman espere ke final yo ale nan jwèt sèt se konsa li a yon gwo fen semèn pou Oracle Arena. Li ta pote kèk atmosfè nan tèren an nwit lan la anvan batay la. Mwen pwobableman pa pral resevwa okenn dòmi paske nan bri a. "

 

"Gen a pa pi plis mwen kapab fè yo prepare kounye a. Pa gen anyen Andre kapab fè jodi a yo ede bat mwen nan Samdi swa. Kèlkeswa sa nou te tou de fè l 'nan semèn yo anvan se sa nou pral nan bag la ak.

Here’s what press conference participants had to say:

 

Michael Yormark – Prezidan & Chief of Branding and Strategy of Roc Nation

“Led by our Chairman JAY Z and his partners, Roc Nation was founded to work with artists and entertainers to guide them and help them build their careers even beyond the boundaries of the music industry. It is fitting then, that today we stand in a setting named for the legendary BB King – may he rest in peace – an artist and a man that knew no boundaries during a career that transcended his art. In a few short years, Roc Nation itself has expanded beyond the world of music, diversifying in a way that many never thought possible. Today we begin to celebrate a landmark in that expansion, as another legend, World Champion Miguel Cotto, prepares to headline Roc Nation’s first major fight on Saturday night against Daniel Geale, live at Barclays Center and on HBO.”

 

“When Roc Nation founded its boxing division less than a year ago, we committed to doing things differently, and what you will see on Saturday night will be different. The eyes of the boxing world will be fixed on Barclays Center on Saturday, with celebrities and VIP’s lining the ring and a captivated audience watching at home. They will watch with anticipation, awaiting not only a masterful performance from the champion Miguel Cotto against a formidable opponent, but also an electric appearance from Roc Nation artist and hip-hop superstar Big Sean, as well as the voice of New York Angie Martinez, and a host of other surprises that will make this live boxing experience different from anything you’ve ever seen before.”

 

“Saturday is the start of something new and fresh for the boxing industry. It is a chance for all of us to show boxing fans, and sports and entertainment fans around the world, that the action on fight night can and will live up to the hype.”

 

 

Hector Soto – Miguel Cotto Promotions

 

“It has been several months of hard work and dedication. Puerto Rico will shine again on the night of June 6 when Miguel Cotto defends his titles successfully.”

 

 

Ululy Rafael Martinez – Puerto Rican Day Parade

“We’re really happy this year to formalize a relationship with Miguel Cotto thanks to Roc Nation Sports and Miguel Cotto Promotions. I also want to thank Roc Nation Sports and Miguel Cotto Promotions for contributing to our scholarship fund. They are helping us empower young high school students and college students we provide scholarships to so they can further their education. I’m encouraging everyone planning on coming to the Parade on June 14 to support our man Miguel Cotto On Saturday, Jen 6 at Barclays Center for the boxing match of the year.”

 

 

David Berlin – New York Athletic Commission

“Miguel Cotto and Daniel Geale represent the best in boxing. These are men that carry themselves with dignity both inside and outside the ring. Men who can be respectful because they don’t have to prove themselves with words. Where they prove themselves each and every time they fight is inside that ring.”

 

“Now that I am with the commission, I no longer root for fighters. I’m in a neutral role, but I do root for fights. I root for fights when fighters come into the ring and they fight hard but they leave the ring safely. I root for fights that satisfy the fans and fights where the right man has his hand raised at the end. That of course is where the New York State Athletic Commission comes in.

 

“This promises to be a competitive fight. Obviously a competitive fight means it’s a hard night for judges, but what I’m committing to the fighters and fans is that we are going to have competent, qualified and neutral officials in place and the right man is going to have his hand raised at the end of the fight. I wish both men good luck on Saturday night.”

 

 

Brett Yormark – CEO of Barclays Center and the Brooklyn Nets

“We’re expecting a great night on Saturday night. Se konsa,, hopefully we see all of you. Biyè yo toujou sou vant. Saturday night represents our 13th night of championship boxing at Barclays Center since we opened the building 32 months ago and boxing plays a huge role in what we do in Brooklyn.”

 

 

Pyè Nelson – Vice President of Programming HBO Sports Programming

“We look forward to two fighters who have always rose to every challenge that has been put in front of them. Daniel Geale had a lucrative opportunity at one point in time to make his HBO debut and he actually decided instead to go to Germany, to Felix Sturm’s backyard, fight him for his world titles and ended up lifting the titles away from him. He is naturally the largest opponent that Miguel Cotto has ever fought and he’s stepped up to every challenge that’s ever been put in front of him.”

 

“Miguel Cotto…the last time he stepped into the ring, he entered it an underdog and he ended up leaving it the lineal middleweight champion. He joined just a handful of fighters ever to win four world titles in four separate divisions and he was the first man from Puerto Rico ever to do so. He performed what I saw as one of the strangest punches ever in boxing when he touched a man on the temple and it caused his knee to twist into a knot. I’ve never seen that happen. It was an extraordinary performance.”

 

“We look to see in this fight, fighters who are going to give us moments of great bravery and great courage. These are the kind of men we want to have on the network. That’s what makes great fights.”

 

 

Gary Shaw – Gary Shaw Productions

 

“I have a personal problem with catch weights. We accepted the catch weight of 157 and I’m not here to complain about the catch weight. We’re going to make the weight. It’s going to be tough. I believe that if a fighter wants to fight at any weight that he wants to fight at, he has that opportunity, but he shouldn’t stop the opponent from fighting at the sanctioned weight which in this case is 160.”

 

“I believe Daniel Geale is going to win the fight. I believe that Miguel and his team made a mistake. If they were looking at the Golovkin fight, thinking that’s the Daniel that is going to come into the ring…it will not be that same Daniel Geale.”

 

“It’s truly an honor to represent Daniel Geale because he’s a different young man. The first time I met him, I flew to Germany. I looked around and I couldn’t identify Daniel Geale. Little did I know, he was standing against the back wall. After taking my seat at the dais, Daniel Geale walked up. I looked at him and I said “we’re in trouble! This kid looks like a choir boy not a fighter,” but he gave it all he got and he won the fight. He’s a family man. Doesn’t travel with an entourage. Always on time. Trains hard. Does everything that a true champion has to do.”

 

 

Danyèl Geale – Former Two-Time World Champion

 

“This is a huge opportunity and I’m very excited. We’re so excited as a team that this fight is taking place. We’ve put a great training camp in for this fight and I’m feeling as good as I ever have. Gen nan pa gen eskiz. I’m going in as the best fighter I can possibly be. I’m hoping Miguel Cotto is the best fighter he can be as well. I want the fans to enjoy a great fight and I believe it will be a great fight. I can’t wait to walk away with another title. I’m going in very confident and I know a lot of people aren’t giving me much of a chance, but I have a huge amount of confidence in myself knowing I’ve completed a great training camp. Knowing that I have put everything that I possibly can into it and knowing that I have such a great team. I look forward to Saturday night.”

 

 

Freddie Roach – Cotto’s Trainer

“We’ve had a great training camp. Miguel is in great shape. Our sparring partners on our team have been great. And we’re ready for this fight. Gary’s been making a big deal about catch weights, but they have been around for a long time and he knows how to read a contract and he’s had that contract for a long time now, so I don’t think that’s an issue. We look forward to seeing you at the fight.”

Miguel Cotto – WBC & Ring Magazine Middleweight World Champion

 

“I want to thank my lovely family for being here with my. My kids, my wife, my lovely mom. Thank you for always supporting my career no matter how hard it seems or looks to you. I love you.”

 

“I think that people are making a big issue where there does not need to be a big issue with catch weights. Freddie, back in 2009, made me go down from 147 to 145. Did anyone hear anything about Miguel Cotto disagreeing with the catch weights? Èske Pa, I was a gentlemen the whole way. Catch weights were our main point to make this fight happen. Daniel and his team agreed to going down to 157 and I hope he can make weight on Friday. I hope to see everyone there on Saturday night.”

 

“Freddie brings the confidence back to Miguel. He comes every day no matter what he feels and gives his best to me. When you have this kind of person in front of you giving you his best and making sure that you are going to do your best, the only way you can pay him back is bringing your best too. We only talk about boxing when we are in the gym. He’s my trainer there, but as soon as we finish our training session, he’s my friend.”

Here’s what Cotto and his trainer, Freddie Roach, te di:

 

Miguel Cotto – WBC & Ring Magazine Middleweight World Champion

 

“I feel good and in the best shape possible. I just feel ready. I know Geale is a tough opponent and he is going to bring his best on Jen 6, but I trust in the work we have done here in Los Angeles and I’m going to bring my best too.”

 

“After 14 years in boxing, the best decision I could have made was to take the last year off. My mind was not in boxing, but since I got here with Freddie, everything is working perfectly again. Boxing is all I know. Bòks se lavi m '. Through boxing, I raised my family and I work to provide the best future for them. They are the reason I love boxing.”

 

“Boxing at this point in my career is a battle with myself. Everyday I need to bring my best in the gym from morning to evening. Next week has to be better than last week. I need to ask myself to be better every day. I know that if I bring my best to the gym every day, I can bring my best the night ofJen 6 against Geale.”

“Freddie comes here every day with the best attitude and he knows how to get the best out of me.”

 

“It will have been 364 days to the day on Jen 6 since I have been in the ring. It’s not difficult to get back in after this long stretch. I’ve been focused on my work. I have gained more knowledge during my time off in order to get myself ready to fight again.”

 

“Daniel Geale is the next chapter in my career. After I get through him, I can talk about what comes next.”

 

Freddie Roach – Cotto’s Trainer

“Miguel’s sparring has been great. His movement has been very good. It’s hard on me in the ring! His body shots are very effective and the head shots come with it. I think we are going to get a late round knockout. Geale is tough enough to go some rounds, but a knockout in a late round…that’s my call.”

 

“One of Miguel’s greatest strength against Geale will be his body shots, but Miguel’s knowledge in the ring will be Geale’s ultimate undoing.”

 

“He has found a new home here at Wild Card and I’m glad I provided that for him. He loves this gym. He loves the atmosphere. He’s thrived in this environment and when a fighter is in a good mood and happy, he performs at the highest level.”
