Ko Mayweather, Mayweather Promotions CEO Leonard Ellerbe, WBC Super middleweight Pasaules čempions, Badou Jack un Mayweather Promotions’ Ishe Smith trešdien:
Floyd Mayweather
“Berto var cīnīties. Viņš ir divu laikā čempions. Viņš ir izsalcis. Viņš nāk, lai karu. Ir nekad nav blāvi brīdis, kad viņš cīnās tāpēc es ceru, ka elle cīņu no viņa. Mēs visi redzam, kā tas spēlē out.
“Mana pēdējā cīņa, all you guys likts [Manny] Pacquiao uz pjedestāla un skatīties, kas noticis. Es devos uz turieni, un darīja to, ko man vajadzēja darīt, kas ir win.
“Šī cīņa, neatkarīgi no tā, kurš pretinieks, kāds būtu kaut ko kritisku vai negatīvu teikt. Daži cilvēki nekad nav apmierināti. Bet es esmu apmierināts.
“Viss 48 manas cīņas bijis grūti. Nav bijis viegli. Visi spēlēja galveno atslēgu. Tā ir "Mayweather Era.’ Man liekas, ka katrs cīnītājs ir mākslinieks, un viņi visi fotografēt savu ceļu. Es esmu tikai viens no labākajiem māksliniekiem.
“Es esmu patiesi laimīgs. Esmu veikusi manu laiku, tur manu acu par balvu un izdarīt to, ko man bija darīt. Tāpēc es esmu spējīgs izdarīt izvēli, kad doties pensijā. Vairums cīnītāji tiešām nevarēja.
“Boksa vienmēr ir bijis darbs ar mani, darbs. Ja es varētu teikt kaut ko zēns sākšanu boksa tas būtu “gudri un neaizņems daudz perforatori. To sauc par saldu zinātne par iemeslu. Hit un nav hit, padarīt daudz naudas, neņemot daudz sodu. Tas ir, kas tas ir par.
“Neviens nezina, kas nākotnē tur, bet tagad, I’m cool and comfortable and having no second thoughts at all about retirement. Man bija laba karjera, Es uzvarēju visas pasaules titulu, bet boksa ir nodiluma ķermeņa. Ir pienācis laiks, lai pakārt 'em up. Es gaidu strādāt ar dažiem up-and-nāk bērniem, notiek pastaigās, un ņemot brīvdienas.”
Leonard Ellerbe
“Visi cilvēki saka, ka Berto ir 3-3 viņa pēdējo sešu cīņās bet Pacquiao bija 3-3 viņa pēdējo sešu cīņas, pārāk. Cotto ir zaudējusi divus no saviem pēdējiem pieciem cīņas. Bet viņi abi devās uz Slavas zālē.
“Mēs zinām Berto nāk cīnīties, ka viņš nāk, lai uzvarētu, un šoks pasauli. Nav tā Floyd aizved viņu viegli. Viņš strādā tikpat smagi par šo cīņu, jo viņš darīja iepriekšējais 48.
“Floyd ir mans draugs, mēs esam ģimene, bet es slavēju un slavēt viņu, lai dara to, ko viņš ir izdarījis, ko viņš paveikts, cik veiksmīgi viņš ir, cik veiksmīgi viņš ir bijis no 1996 tagad.
“Tas ir patiesi ievērojams. Lai varētu staigāt prom uz saviem nosacījumiem, sekot savu spēles plānu, ir neticams. Pie 38, viņš dabūja boatload naudas bankā, visi viņa spējas un viņš to darīja savu ceļu. Tas ir American Dream.
“Floyd varētu cīnīties tik ilgi, kamēr viņš grib, ja tas ir tas, ko viņš gribēja darīt. Cilvēki nesaprot, kas notiek viņa kuģi. Viņš vilcieni visu diennakti. Viņš devis savu dzīvību, lai savu karjeru. Viņš ir gatavs braukt off uz nākamo posmu savā dzīvē. Viņš nopelnījis šīs tiesības.
“Mēs uzņēmās saistības, un mēs sekojam viņa līgums. Turklāt, cik daudz ir pietiekami? Cik var vienu lūgt no kādu? Cik daudz viņš var padarīt?’
“Tas būs Floyd pēdējā cīņa. Es esmu ļoti satraukti par viņu. Viņš ir izdarījis to savu ceļu. Viņš bija izcilas karjeras, un es zinu, ka viņš ir ļoti apmierināti ar to, ko viņš ir spējis paveikt.”
Badou Jack
“Godīgi, Es domāju, ka šī cīņa varētu nozagt parādīt un būs cīņa par nakti. Tas būs ļoti, ļoti interesants.
“Groves noteikti ir labs, grūts cīnītājs, Viņam ir daudz ātrumu, daudz sirds. Es cienu viņu. . Viņš cīnījās Carl Froch divreiz. Bet es neesmu Froch un nav cīņa patīk Froch. Mums ir dažādi stili.
“Šis ir mans pirmais aizsardzības un es esmu ļoti satraukti par to, bet es vienmēr jāsaglabā underdog mentalitāti, un kas nekad nemainīsies. Es cenšos palikt pazemīgs. Es esmu joprojām ir tas pats puisis, bet, kļūstot par pasaules čempionu tā ir tikai lika man jāstrādā vēl smagāk.
“Es vēl tikai mācos, smagi strādāt. Es zinu, es nevaru skatīties pagātnē nevienam. Ir daudz potenciālo tiešām liels cīņas nākotnē – un es gribu, lai cīnītos labākais nav svarīgi, ja tas ir GGG, Andre Ward, lai kas.
“Bet tagad mans vienīgais uzsvars ir uz spēles plānu un izpildot to. Es esmu patiesi cer cīņām [George] Birzis un uzvarētāju par septembris. 12.”
Ishe Smith
“Es neesmu gatavojas veikt nekādas prognozes. Es esmu tikai gatavojas iet un darīt to, ko es daru, un tas dod 100 procents.
“Es saku, tomēr, ja viņš domā, viņš gatavojas klauvēt mani, kā viņš saka, tas būs ļoti interesants cīņa.
“Es uzvarēja pasaules titulu kā B-pusē, bet man šķiet, es esmu A-pusē šajā cīņā. Es esmu cīnījās labākajiem sadalīšanas ilgus gadus, Esmu sparred ar labāko.
“Martirosyan ir labs dude un ir jauka ģimene, bet viņš nav bijis ar puišiem, piemēram, man ir. Puiši, kas ir labāk un hit daudz grūtāk nekā viņu. Es nekad neesmu bijis uz leju. Es nekad neesmu veikusi astoņu skaits. Es esmu 34 gadi un nekad nav ticis ievainots, un viņš saka, ka viņš ir gonna apstāties mani. Tas ir vienkārši traks.
“Es esmu derības par manu zoda, tas ir for sure. Viņš nevarēja izsist [Jermell] Charlo savā pēdējā cīņā. Viņš veica visu veidu attaisnojumi zaudēt. Iemesls viņš zaudēja bija tāpēc, ka viņš zaudējis labāku cīnītājs.
“Ja viņš grib iet uz KO, smalks; ja tas ir viņa uzmanība. Man, Es neesmu domājis KO. Es tikai domāju uzvarēt.”

147-POUND WEIGHT CLASS TAKES CENTER STAGE AGAIN ON SATURDAY, VAR 2 AT THE MGM GRAND GARDEN ARENA

Floyd Mayweather & Manny Pacquiao Square Off
In Another Classic Showdown

In The Welterweight Division

LAS VEGAS (Aprīlis 20, 2015) — It has often been said thatas the heavyweight division goes, so goes boxing,” but that has not always been the case and, patiesībā, might not even be valid when viewed from a comprehensive perspective dating back to the late 19th gadsimtā. Uz Bokss, 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, parMaijs 2 at MGM Grand Las Vegas, dzīvot uz pay-per-view, papildsvars čempions Floyd “Nauda” 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, N.Y.. 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, un, although no one knew it then, thus was a legend born.

 

Robinson was 85-0 as an amateur before turning pro at 19 uz 1940. Līdz 1951, viņš bija 128-1-2 ar 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, štancēšanas jauda, 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. Uz 2013, viņš teica, “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 “Mazulis” 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, teikt, Leonard-Duran I, which Duran won on a rousing unanimous decision on June 25, 1980, Monreālā? The epic Leonard-Hearns I, gada septembris. 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 teicaTrešdiena:

 

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.

 

“Man, 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. Ar to teica, 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.

 

“Es gaidu Maijs 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.
