Den 2012 US-. Olympian is coming off of a solid win against heavyweight veteran Victor Bisbal this past March during the inaugural PBC on NBC series. Breazeale showed true heart and resilience after experiencing the first knockdown of his career early in the first round of the bout. Breazeale recovered quickly and dominated Bisbal until the bout was stopped in the fourth round, resulting in Breazeale’s 14th win and 13th by knockout.

Immediately following the bout with Bisbal, Breazeale asked his advisor Al Haymon for another tough-quality opponent and Breazeale was granted his request.

My last bout with Bisbal was by far the toughest opponent I have ever shared the ring with. He caught me with a good shot and I recovered quickly. I shook it off and ended up stopping him a couple of rounds later. Etter bout, I wasn’t happy that I was knocked down although many people told me that I showed resilience and that is what champions are made of. Fortsatt, I wanted another tough opponent and Al Haymon gave me the opportunity,” said Breazeale.

In addition to the quality opponent, Breazeale now has the chance to make an impression on many avid and casual boxing fans who will be watching the bout live on NBC Lørdag ettermiddag, an opportunity Breazeale welcomes and is thankful for.

“Dette er en drøm som går i oppfyllelse for meg. Some of my previous bouts have been televised in the past, but not on a prime-time network where millions of people will be tuning in and see an American heavyweight like me. The heavyweight division is the most popular division in boxing because of its excitement and this is a bout between two undefeated heavyweights.” 

If this bout turns out as well as Breazeale has worked so hard for, he is looking to transition from a top prospect to a contender. Since turning professional two and a half years ago, Breazeale has been on the fast track to the world heavyweight title and has been learning from every training camp and fight thereafter under the tutelage of trainer John Bray.

I know I still have some room to

Bilde c / o Lag Breazeale

grow. I’ve been learning in the gym everyday and with every bout that I have had. In just 14 professional bouts so far, I feel that I have fought tougher opposition at this particular point of my career than the current American world heavyweight champion did in his first fourteen bouts. With the platform I have been provided denne lørdagen, I intend to make the best of it and will definitely give the fans watching at home an entertaining fight and hope to make a name for myself in the heavyweight division.”

Lørdag, Juni 6 AT STUBHUB CENTER

Coverage on NBC Starts At 3 pm. OG/12 pm. PT

GILROY, SLIK AS (Mai 26, 2015)While entering the final days of training camp, four-division world champion, Robert “The Ghost” Warrior (32-3-1, 18 KOs), gives his thoughts on his upcoming PBC on NBC main-event attraction against Aron Martinez. The 10-round bout will take place at StubHub Center in Carson, Calif., Juni 6, 2015and will air live on NBC starting at 3:00 pm. OG/12:00 pm. PT.

On fighting in the PBC on NBC main-event

First I really want to thank Al Haymon for bringing boxing back to the fans. This is another wonderful opportunity where fans from all walks of life can see me fight on NBC for free. PBC on NBC has taken boxing back to its glory days and I’m honored to be headlining my second show. Everyone knows I come to fight and you can expect the same when I step in the ring with Martinez.

On staying active

When a fighter is constantly staying busy, it makes a world of difference. My timing is down, my body is used to the rigorous training. When I’m on the grind, I perform at a much higher level. This will be the first time I’ve had back to back fights in a very long time. Everyone watching this fight will see the difference in my fighting style.

On fighting at the StubHub Center

The StubHub Center is probably my favorite venue to fight in. The fans are incredible. Everyone has a great seat and you can feel the energy from the crowd while you’re fighting. It’s like there right on top of you. For some reason the StubHub Center brings out the warrior spirit in everyone. It’s a great place to fight!”

On training camp

“Treningsleir har pågått stor. Like I mentioned before, when you stay active, everything flows a lot smoother. I’ve taken my sparring sessions to a new level. I’m quicker on my feet and my timing is spot on. My dad Ruben who trains me, is really happy with my progress. Everything has come together really nice. It’s time to go to war!”

BOSTON (Mai 21, 2015) – Jagerfly som deltar på lørdagens Premier Boxing Champions NBC card took part in the final press conference today at historic Fenway Park in Boston before their respective fights at Agganis Arena, with televised coverage starting at 4:30 pm. OG/1:30 pm. PT.

 

Billetter til direktesendingen, som er fremmet av DiBella Entertainment i forbindelse med Murphys Boxing, er priset til $250, $200, $100, $75, $50 og $35, ikke inkludert gjeldende avgifter og skatter, og er i salg nå.

 

Her er hva pressen konferansedeltakerne hadde å si:

 

ANDRE DIRRELL

 

A title means everything. It completes you as a fighter. That’s the top of the food chain in this sport, and that’s the pedestal we’re all trying to reach – verdensmester. Everybody wants to be a world champion. The greats had it and now we want it. It would mean more for my city, min familie og mine venner, and it’s something I’ll always be able to look back it. It would put me in the record books for life.

 

DeGale is not quiet. Today he’s chilling, maybe because he’s a little out of his comfort zone. But there’s a lot of tension when you’re standing right there next to your opponent. He might just be a little cranky today.

 

I like to lighten the mood and stay comfortable. This is all a part of the game. Let’s have fun now. It’s ass-kicking time when we get in that ring, but outside it’s all love.

 

There was a time when I didn’t want to do interviews. I didn’t want to go to fights. I didn’t want to hear fans online and on social media. I closed all them down because I didn’t want to hear people ask, ‘When are you fighting again? Talking about talent wasted, or saying I’m glad he’s gone.It hurt because there was nothing I could do. I was powerless even with all the power in the world.

JAMES Degale

 

Andre says the belt doesn’t mean anything to him in the fight – vel, the belt means everything to me and more. I am here to make history and it doesn’t happen without that title.

 

I could win på lørdag night and retire a happy manthat’s how much I want to beat Andre Dirrell. But when I do win that title, I am going for the rest of the belts, creating a lasting legacy for my country, my fans and myself.

 

Andre is a classy fighter and he showed in the press conference that he is a classy guy toowhen two fighters who believe in their ability 100 percent and know they are going to win a fight, it is going to be explosive.

 

There’s nothing but respect between us, but ultimately, we’re going to take each other to dark territory på lørdag natt, it’s going to be a brutal battleand one that I am going to win.

 

EDWIN RODRIGUEZ

 

This is home for me and I’m thrilled. I know I have a good undefeated fighter in front me, so I’m looking forward to a competitive matchup. It’s going to be a great fight for the fans.

 

This is an exciting day for me. I saw Pedro Martinez pitch so many times here at Fenway and he’s going into the Hall of Fame. Også, my fellow countrymen Manny Ramirez and David Ortiz have made so much history here.

 

Being here today and then having the weigh-in at Faneuil Hall i morgen and fighting på lørdag, it’s just an amazing experience.

 

CRAIG BAKER

“Dette er en stor mulighet for meg. I’ve dreamed of fighting on a grand scale like this since I first started boxing.

 

The entire experience has been awesome. It’s going to be an interesting fight. I’m going to keep coming forward. I’m going to keep boxing all night.

 

Everyone should look forward to an action packed night, I know it’s going to be an interesting matchup.

 

DANNY O'CONNOR

 

A couple of years ago Ken Casey and I talked about bringing boxing back to the city of Boston. Fast-forward to today and we’re doing it.

 

I’m excited to be part of it and to see boxing in Boston blossom. It’s good for the city and all the young boxers in this area.

 

I know I have a tough opponent in front of me and I won’t take him lightly. I’m planning on putting on a show for the fans come Lørdag natt.”

 

CHRIS GILBERT

 

I’m an aggressive come forward, in your face boxer from the first bell to the last.

 

I was full steam ahead when I got the call for this fight. I train all the time, I don’t take breaks and I’m always looking for an opportunity. Jeg kunne ikke vært lykkeligere.

 

Danny O’Connor is one of the best in my weight division in New England. Everything he does, he does well.

 

I just need to keep my head and continue to come forward, I can’t get frustrated. I’m going 100 percent the full way through. If I’m busy and I fight smart I get good outcomes.

A former world champion in four weight classes, Guerrero looks to put on another outstanding performance on Juni 6 at StubHub Center.

 

Born in Uruapan, Michoacan de Ocampo, Mexico, but fighting out of East Los Angeles, Martinez makes his StubHub Center debut on June 6.

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

 

“Jeg føler stor. I prepared for a war. He was moving a lot. I thought it was close, not going to lie,” Said Garcia. “It was definitely close the whole way through. I did enough to win and I’m happy with my performance.

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

“Det var en tøff kamp. He dropped me early because I was being lazy. I got my momentum late in the fight and I boxed consistently. I understand why with two knockdowns people felt he won the decision. I could have done better i kveld. If my next fight is Peter Quillin.

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

 

DANNY GARCIA

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

LAMONT PETERSON

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

“Jeg er klar til å kjempe, I’ve prepared well and I’m ready to put on a show.

 

ANDY LEE

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

PETER QUILLIN

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

LOU DiBella, President i DiBella Entertainment

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

Peter Quillin makes Brooklyn his home. It’s his third fight at Barclays Center and he has a perfect record of 31-0. He’s going to try to take Andy’s belt, men det vil ikke være lett.

 

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

 

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

 

JON MILLER, President, Programmering, NBC Sports & NBCSN

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

BRETT YORMARK, Administrerende direktør i Barclays Center

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

Here are what the fighters had to say at Tirsdag trene:

 

DANNY GARCIA

 

I just want to give the fans a great fight. I want them to see the best Danny Garcia. På slutten av dagen, this is the fight the fans want to see. My main focus is putting on a great show for the fans.

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

 

LAMONT PETERSON

 

This is just another fight for me. I’m not worried about being the main event. Jeg bare elsker å kjempe. As long as I’m fighting I’m happy.

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

I don’t think they’re taking me lightly. På slutten av dagen, Garcia knows this is a fight and he knows he hasn’t fought anyone like me. I’m expecting a big victory Lørdag natt.

 

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

 

ANDY LEE

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

PETER QUILLIN

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

ERROL SPENCE JR.

 

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

 

I’m a little bit of a mix style-wise. Jeg er en bokser, I can punch and I can fight if I have to.

 

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

 

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

 

I’m going to look good as always på lørdag natt, It’s going to be fantastic and I’m going to come out with the victory.

 

Marcus Browne

 

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

 

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

 

“Jeg har en tøff motstander foran meg. Han opplevde, very lanky fighter but we’ve trained very hard and I’m ready for anything he’s got.

 

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

 

Luis Collazo

 

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

 

This is what I live for. Boksing er livet mitt.

 

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

 

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

 

HEATHER HARDY

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

Fans can expect a good show and a big win out me på lørdag.”
