Što Mayweather, Mayweather Promocije CEO Leonard Ellerbe, WBC super srednjoj svjetski prvak, Badou Jack i Mayweather Promocije’ Ishe Smith izjavio je u srijedu:
Floyd Mayweather
“Berto može boriti. On je dva puta prvak. On je gladan. On dolazi voditi rat. Tu je nikada nije dosadno trenutak kad se bori tako da očekujem pakao od borbe iz njega. Svi ćemo vidjeti kako se igra.
“Moja posljednja borba, svi ti dečki stavili [Manny] Pacquiao na pijedestal i pogledati što se dogodilo. Otišao sam tamo i učinio ono što sam trebao učiniti, koji je win.
“Ova borba, bez obzira tko je protivnik, netko će morati nešto kritički ili negativno za reći. Neki ljudi nikada nisu zadovoljni. Ali ja sam zadovoljan.
“Sve 48 moje borbe bilo teško. Niti su lako. Sve odigrao veliku tipku. To je 'Mayweather Era.’ Osjećam da je svaki borac je umjetnik i svi su se slike na svoj način. Ja sam samo jedan od najboljih umjetnika.
“Ja sam doista bio blagoslovljen. Ja sam uzeo moje vrijeme, držati svoje oči na nagradu i učinio ono što sam morao učiniti. Dakle, ja sam u mogućnosti napraviti izbor kada je u mirovinu. Većina borci stvarno ne mogu.
“Boks je oduvijek bio posao za mene, posao. Ako bih mogao reći ništa dječak uzimam boks da bi se “biti pametni i ne uzeti puno udaraca. To se zove slatko znanost s razlogom. Hit i ne biti hit, napraviti mnogo novca bez uzimanja puno kazne. To je ono što je o.
“Nitko ne zna što budućnost drži, ali sada, I’m cool and comfortable and having no second thoughts at all about retirement. Imao sam dobru karijeru, Osvojio sam sve svjetsku titulu, ali boks je trošenje i suza na tijelu. To je vrijeme da se "objesiti em up. Veselim se suradnji s nekim gore-i-dolaze djecu, događa šetnje, i uzimanje odmor.”
Leonard Ellerbe
“Svi ljudi govore da je Berto 3-3 u svojim zadnjih šest borbi, ali Pacquiao je 3-3 u svojim zadnjih šest borbe, previše. Cotto je izgubila dva od njegovih posljednjih pet borbi. Ali oni oboje krenuli u Kuću slavnih.
“Znamo Berto dolazi boriti, da dolazi pobijediti i šokirati svijet. Nema načina Floyd ga uzima lagano. On je raditi kao što je teško za tu borbu kao što je učinio prethodnog 48.
“Floyd je moj prijatelj, mi smo obitelj, ali ja pohvaliti ga plješću za to što je učinio, ono što je postignuto, koliko je uspješan bio je, koliko je uspješan da je bio iz 1996 do sada.
“To je zaista izvanredan. Da bi mogli otići pod svojim uvjetima, slijediti svoj plan igre, je nevjerojatno. Na 38, on je dobio boatload novca u banci, sve njegove sposobnosti i on to učinio njegov put. To je američki san.
“Floyd mogla boriti dok god on želi, ako je to bilo ono što je želio učiniti. Ljudi ne razumiju što se događa u njegovom obrt. On trenira oko sat. On je dao svoj život karijeri. On je spreman za vožnju off na sljedeću fazu svog života. On je zaslužio to pravo.
“Napravili smo se obvezali i mi slijedimo njegov ugovor. Osim toga, koliko je dovoljno? Koliko netko može nekoga pitati? Koliko on može napraviti?’
“To će biti Floyda posljednja borba. Ja sam vrlo uzbuđen za njega. On je to učinio njegov put. On je imao slavne karijere i znam da je jako zadovoljni što je on bio u mogućnosti ostvariti.”
Badou Jack
“Pošteno, Mislim da je ovo borba mogao ukrasti show i da će biti borba noći. To će biti vrlo, vrlo zabavno.
“Groves je svakako dobar, tvrd borac, On ima puno brzine, puno srca. Ja ga poštujem. . Borio Carl Froch puta. Ali nisam Froch i ne boriti se kao Froch. Imamo različite stilove.
“Ovo je moj prvi obrane, a ja sam vrlo uzbuđen o tome, ali uvijek sam zadržala gubitnik mentalitet, i da se nikada neće promijeniti. Pokušavam ostati skromni. Ja sam još uvijek isti tip već postaje svjetski prvak samo je mene raditi čak i teže.
“Ja sam još uvijek učenje, teško raditi. Znam da ne mogu gledati prošlost svakoga. Postoji mnogo potencijalnih jako velikim borbama u budućnosti – a ja želim da se bore najbolji bez obzira da li je to GGG, Andre Ward, ma tko.
“Ali sada moj jedini fokus je na planu igre i njezina izvršenja. Ja sam stvarno obličje naprijed za borbe [George] Groves i pobjedu na Sept. 12.”
Ishe Smith
“Neću napraviti nikakve prognoze. Samo ću otići van i raditi ono što ja radim, a to je dati 100 posto.
“Ja ću reći ovo, iako, ako misli da će me nokautirati, kao da govori, to će biti vrlo zabavna borba.
“Osvojio sam svjetski naslov kao B-strana, ali osjećam da sam A-strana u ovoj borbi. Ja sam se borio najbolji u podjeli godinama, Ja sam sparred s najboljima.
“Martirosyan je dobar dude i ima lijep obitelj, ali on nije bio u s momcima kao što ja imam. Dečki koji su bolji i hit puno teže nego njemu. Nikad nisam bio dolje. Nikad nisam uzeo osam count. Ja sam 34 godina i nikad nije bio ozlijeđen, a on kaže da će me zaustaviti. To je samo luda.
“Kladim na bradi, to je sigurno. Nije mogao nokautirati [Jermell] Charlo u svojoj posljednjoj borbi. On je napravio sve vrste izgovora za gubljenje. Razlog je izgubio zato što je izgubio od boljeg borca.
“Ako on želi ići za KO, fino; ako je to njegov fokus. Za mene, Neću razmišljati KO. Ja samo razmišljam pobjedu.”

147-POUND WEIGHT CLASS TAKES CENTER STAGE AGAIN ON SATURDAY, SVIBANJ 2 U MGM Grand Garden Arena

Floyd Mayweather & Manny Pacquiao Square Off
In Another Classic Showdown

In The Welterweight Division

LAS VEGAS (Travanj 20, 2015) — It has often been said thatas the heavyweight division goes, so goes boxing,” but that has not always been the case and, zapravo, might not even be valid when viewed from a comprehensive perspective dating back to the late 19th century. U Boks, German author Bertram Job’s epic, 420-page coffee-table dissertation on all aspects of the sweet science, he writes that, “Elegance is the trademark of the slim and nimble stars in the under 147-pound weight class that has attracted insiders and admirers of beauty like no other.

 

And so it is with what will be another benchmark entry in the rich history of the division when, naSvibanj 2 u MGM Grand u Las Vegasu, živjeti na pay-per-view, velter šampion Floyd “Novca” Mayweather (47-0, 26 Kos) takes on fellow titlist Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao(57-5-2, 38 Kos) in a long-anticipated unification showdown that will be the richest prizefight in the sport’s history, and which has drawn comparisons to some of the premier matchups in a weight class imprinted with that elegant trademark to which Job referred.

 

Although Pacquiao, the only fighter ever to win world championships in eight weight classes, and Mayweather, who has reigned in five weight classes, have not campaigned solely or even mostly as welterweights, it is hardly a surprise that the most important intersection of their remarkable careers comes in the same division for which so many of boxing’s greatest legends are primarily known.

 

The “gold standardto which all welterweights aspire remains the late, great Sugar Ray Robinson. Born Walker Smith Jr., the skinny kid who had never fought in a sanctioned bout at any level was a tag-along with coach George Gainford to an amateur tournament in Kingston, NY. Asked if he had a flyweight he wished to enter, Gainford was about to say no when Smith tugged on his sleeve and said, “I’ll fight.As it turned out, Gainford had an AAU cardyou needed one to be certified as a non-professionalin the name of Ray Robinson, one of his boxers who had given up the sport. Smith/Robinson won a four-round decision, a, although no one knew it then, thus was a legend born.

 

Robinson was 85-0 as an amateur before turning pro at 19 u 1940. Po 1951, he was 128-1-2 s 84 knockout victories. Although he is also remembered for winning the middleweight title five times, Robinson never lost as a welterweight, winning so often and so emphatically that the legendary trainer, Eddie Futch, was moved to observe that, “He had everything. Boxing skills, Probijanje snaga, a great chin, mental strength. There was nothing he couldn’t do.

 

Robinson also had an outsized ego, which perhaps is a necessary component to any great fighter’s mental makeup. Even a trace of doubt in one’s own ability is not conducive to success in the ring. Once, when asked about hisgolf game,” Muhammad Ali, who didn’t play golf, responded, “I’m the best, greatest of ’em all. I just haven’t played yet.

 

Mayweather certainly brings that aura of invincibility to his work, and maybe not just because he has yet to lose as a professional. U 2013, rekao je, “Of course I feel unbeatable. I’m the best. I’m not going into any fight figuring that I’m beatable. I want to make a legacy for myself as the greatest fighter who ever entered the ring.

 

Pacquiao, while perhaps not as verbose, is no less secure in his own belief system. It is those heaping measures of talent and swagger that make Mayweather vs. Pacquiao a must-see event. Which of these outstanding fighters can make the other bend to his will? Who will have his name written in larger print in the big book of welterweights?

 

The International Boxing Hall of Fame has inducted 23 fighters who were, at one time or another, welterweight champions. In addition to Robinson, those whose plaques grace the hallowed hall include Sugar Ray Leonard, Roberto Duran, Thomas Hearns, Oscar De La Hoya, Felix Trinidad, Julio Cesar Chavez, Pernell Whitaker, Carmen Basilio, Henry Armstrong, Emile Griffith, Pipino Cuevas, Jose Napoles, Curtis Cokes, Barney Ross, Kid Gavilan, Wilfred Benitez, Luis Rodriguez, Mickey Walker, Fritzie Zivic, Jack Britton, Jackie Fields, Ted “Dijete” Lewis andMysteriousBilly Smith. Mayweather and Pacquiao are of course assured of joining their ranks as soon as they become eligible to go onto the ballot.

 

The lead-up to Mayweather vs. Pacquiao has generated no shortage of comparisons to past welterweight clashes that are notable for the classic nature of those bouts, the widespread public interest attendant to them, or both.

 

Is Mayweather vs. Pacquiao more likely to be a repeat of, reći, Leonard-Duran I, which Duran won on a rousing unanimous decision on June 25, 1980, u Montrealu? The epic Leonard-Hearns I, Sept. 16, 1981, which saw Leonard, trailing on the scorecards, rally for a dramatic, 14th-round TKO at Caesars Palace? Trinidad’s controversial majority decision over De La Hoya in their Sept. 18, 1999, unification showdown at the Mandalay Bay? Or will it make its own mark in such a distinctive way that no comparisons can or should be drawn?

 

When it comes to unforgettable welterweight bouts, by now it should be obvious that anything and everything is possible. Mayweather and Pacquiao will make history, and add to it, by attempting to bend destiny each to their own purpose.

What Pacquiao, Top Rank CEO Bob Arum and Hall of Fame trainer Freddie Roach reklaSrijeda:

 

Manny Pacquiao, Eight-Division World Champion

 

I feel very excited for the fight.

 

I have a lot of sparring partners that are similar to Floyd’s fighting style, we have done well. We know what to expect.

 

I have watched tape on Floyd to make sure that our strategy and technique in training camp is correct.

 

My entire career defines my legacy; I have already accomplished great achievements in my career while excelling in different weight divisions. This fight is an additional achievement in my career; it’s the biggest fight in boxing history.

 

I can say that beating Floyd would be the biggest victory of my career.

 

More people are interested and informed about this fight now than they would’ve been five years ago.

 

Style wise, I am the same fighter I was five years ago. My determination, inspiration and killer instinct is the exact same as it was five or six years ago.

 

“Za mene, boxing is my passion. I enjoy boxing and giving honor to my country of the Philippines. My concern is to bring an exciting fight to my fans. My first concern going into every fight is how will be to be able to entertain my fans, give them enjoyment and make them happy.

 

The reason I am so loved by fans is because of my reckless style of fighting. People like exciting fights with actual punches being thrown.

 

BOB ARUM, Top Rank CEO

 

Manny is motivated, he’s ready for the fight. I expect a great performance from him.

 

It’s a very interesting fight because Floyd is a defensive specialist who has a good right hand and picks off his opponents. He’s an extraordinarily good fighter.

 

Pacquiao’s strength is speed, particularly his foot speed and the fact that he throws so many punches and attacks from low angles. He really hits harder than Floyd does, so that’s really what it’s going to be about.

 

Floyd has a different defense than Juan Manuel Marquez. His defense is primarily his shoulder roll. A lot of his defense is geared against a right handed fighter. Uz to, rekao je, I think Manny is going to surprise a lot of people with how he is going to be able to reach Floyd.

 

I would say Manny is more motivated for this fight than any other fight I’ve seen him prepare for.

 

“Radujem se Svibanj 2. I love Manny’s chances of winning, that’s the main thing. He looks great, he’s motivated, no nonsense, and I think he’s going to put on a performance for the ages. It’s going to be hard for him to top his performance against Oscar De La Hoya, but I think he will in this fight.


FREDDIE Roach, Pacquiao’s Hall of Fame Trainer

 

We have a great idea of when and where we are going to attack Mayweather.

 

This fight was five years in the making. Promoters should realize that these types of fights are what’s best for boxing and we should have more fights like this. I’m not surprised by the hype surrounding the fight.

 

Manny has really raised the bar in this training camp. He’s a different Manny Pacquiao than I have seen him going into previous training camps. He is punching so much harder in training for this camp.

 

Manny is better than ever, his attitude is different and I’ve never seen him work this hard. His speed is faster, his punches are harder. I’m really happy where he’s at. His legs look great; he’s on his toes all the time.

 

Mayweather is a good counter-puncher, but Manny has faster hands and his combinations are better than Floyd’s.

 

Both fighters have great experience, so I don’t believe that will be a factor in the fight. The biggest thing is that each fighter comes in with a different style. Floyd is a counter-puncher but Manny must be the one to enforce the fight.

 

I believe that Manny being a southpaw will be a factor in this fight. Manny showed me tape of Floyd fighting a southpaw and told me that that is exactly what we are going to do in this fight.

 

I can tell how much this fight means to Manny because he has watched tape on Floyd. Manny has never watched tape on any fighter before.

 

Since Manny moved to 147 he hasn’t knocked many guys out, so getting the knockout in this fight isn’t a concern for me. If Manny fights at 140, then he does knock guys out, but at this weight he is fighting guys who are bigger than him.

 

Floyd may be a bigger guy, but we will still win the fight.

 

This fight is much bigger than when Manny fought Oscar De La Hoya. Manny is a different person going into this fight. He hit me so hard the other day that I believe it’s the hardest I’ve ever been hit by a fighter who I’m training.

 

I don’t believe that Floyd ever wanted this fight, he was forced to take it by the public and the media. I wouldn’t be surprised if Floyd pulled out now.
