“This action-packed tripleheader is full of high stakes,
toe-to-toe matchups with fighters highly-motivated to make a statement on the
big stage,” 说汤姆·布朗, TGB促销总统. “Brooklyn’s
Polish star Adam Kownacki has become a fan-favorite in his hometown and is
surely in for a challenge from the always exciting Chris Arreola, as he looks
to make a heavyweight statement. Andre Berto is always in action fights and
he’ll be looking to hold off the young challenger Miguel Cruz, while Marcus Browne
returns off his career-best victory to face battle-tested former champion Jean
Pascal.”
“All eyes are on boxing’s heavyweight division, and I am
thrilled to welcome Brooklyn’s own contender Adam Kownacki back to our ring for
his first time as the headliner,” 布雷特说Yormark, BSE的全球首席执行官.
“Adam has built an enthusiastic fan base in the borough, and I am
confident they will be out in full force to support him as he takes on veteran
Chris Arreola to earn a title shot in the near future. It will be yet another
heavyweight night to remember in Brooklyn.”
Kownacki (19-0, 15 科斯) is noted for his tenacity and has been
progressing towards a world title shot with knockouts in five of his last six
fights. 这位30岁的, 谁是出生在沃姆扎, Poland and moved to Brooklyn
when he was seven, was an accomplished amateur in New York City before turning
pro. He scored an impressive unanimous decision victory over former world
champion Charles Martin last year and is coming off of a devastating knockout victory
against Gerald Washington in January on FOX. His last three fights and six of
his last seven have taken place at Barclays Center, where he has routinely
brought out the area’s passionate Polish sports fans.
“I’m excited to be back in the ring and back
at home in Barclays Center, live on FOX and FOX Deportes,” 说Kownacki.
“Fighting Chris Arreola will be another step on my journey to become a
world champion. It will be a Polish-Mexican War that will bring fireworks to
Brooklyn. Make sure you’re there in Brooklyn or watching in primetime!”
Arreola的 (38-5-1, 33 科斯), a veteran of the heavyweight division,
has contended for the world title three times, most recently against WBC
champion Deontay Wilder in 2016. Since losing to Wilder, the 38-year-old Arreola
from Los Angeles, California has put together back-to-back victories, including
a stoppage of then unbeaten Jean Pierre Augustin on a PBC on FOX Sports
pay-per-view undercard in March.
“I can’t wait to step into the ring on
August 3 and show everyone I’m still one of the best heavyweights in the
world,” 说的Arreola. “I feel rejuvenated and ready to upset Adam
Kownacki in front of his fans. 他最好做好准备, because I’m going to bring
it to him like he’s never seen before. This is going to be a war and I will
leave with my hand raised.”
叶贝 (32-5, 24 科斯) has fought some of the top welterweight
champions of this generation, including Floyd Mayweather. The 35-year-old won a
welterweight world title with TKO victory over Miguel Angel Rodriguez in 2008
and successfully defended it five times before losing it to Victor Ortiz in
2011. He later avenged that loss to Ortiz with a knockout victory in 2016 on
FOX. A native of Winter Haven Florida, Berto is coming off a split decision
victory over former welterweight champion Devon Alexander in his last fight in
August on FOX.
“I’m looking forward to this fight on
August 3,” 叶贝说. “My focus is different, my motivation is
different and my hunger is different. I’ve had a lot happen in my life in a short
period of time with the loss of my father and the birth of my new baby girl,
Legaci. It’s definitely turned me in to a whole different type of animal.
August 3 is going to be cinematic. Barclays Center – see you soon. I’ve
got some payback.”
十字 (18-1, 12 科斯) is among a group of promising welterweights
prepared to burst onto the scene in one of the most talent-rich division in
boxing. The 28-year-old from Lake Mary, Florida will be stepping up a level
with his bout against Berto. He scored a TKO victory over Luis Eduardo Florez
in his last fight in January to bounce back from a decision loss to Josesito
Lopez on FOX in April 2018.
“I’m excited for all my Boricuas and NYC
fight fans to come out and show love in August 3,” Cruz said. “I want to thank
everyone who made this opportunity possible, and I’m definitely going to make
the most if it. This is a different era in boxing and I’m here to prove it to
the world and to Andre Berto. Don’t miss this night of boxing.”
The 28-year-old Browne (23-0, 16 科斯) won the interim title with a
rousing unanimous decision victory over former two-division champion Badou Jack
in January. 一 2012 中美. Olympian from Staten Island, Browne has fought at
Barclays Center 12 times in his career as he made his steady climb up the light
heavyweight ranks. Pascal will be the second straight former world champion
that he has faced.
“I’m honored and grateful to be able to
display my skills on this huge platform on FOX and at Barclays Center, which is
a second home for me and my boxing career,” 布朗说, who will be
fighting at Barclays Center for the 13th time.“I anticipate Pascal
bringing everything that he has into this fight because this is make or break
for him. 不幸的是，他, he will break, as I plan to win this fight
decisively and continue my quest for a long and successful championship reign.
I expect him to come in as prepared as a championship-caliber fighter and I’m
staying motivated to get the win on August 3.”
帕斯卡 (33-6-1, 20 科斯) has been in the ring with the top fighters
of his era during his brilliant career, 包括伯纳德·霍普金斯大学, Sergey
Kovalev, 卡尔Froch, Lucian Bute and Chad Dawson. 36岁的, who was born
in Port-Au-Prince, Haiti and now lives in Laval, 魁北克, 加拿大, won the light
heavyweight world title with a unanimous decision over Adrian Diaconu in 2009.
He is coming off a loss to Dmitry Bivol in his last fight after putting
together back-to-back TKO victories over Ahmed Elbiali and Steve Bosse.
“Marcus Browne is one of the most talented fighters in the
world and I will have to be at my best to beat him,” 帕斯卡尔说：.
“I’ve been training and I will be ready. I’ve got some veteran tricks he’s
never seen before. I plan on out boxing him just like every other southpaw I’ve
ever fought. I’ve never lost to a lefty and it’s going to stay that way come
August 3.”
