Kaj Mayweather, Mayweather Promotions CEO Leonard Ellerbe, WBC Super Srednja kategorija svetovni prvak, Badou Jack in Mayweather Promotions’ Ishe Smith je dejal v sredo:
Floyd Mayweather
“Berto morejo boriti. On je dvakratni prvak. On je lačen. Prihaja plač vojno. Tam ni nikoli dolgčas, ko se bori zato pričakujem hud boj iz njega. Vsi bomo videli, kako se igra ven.
“Moj zadnji boj, vsi vi dal [Manny] Pacquiao na podstavku in poglej, kaj se je zgodilo. Šel sem tja in naredili tisto, kar sem potreboval, da storijo, kar je win.
“Ta boj, no glede na to, kdo je nasprotnik, kdo bi imel kaj kritično ali negativno reči. Nekateri ljudje niso nikoli zadovoljni. Ampak sem zadovoljna.
“Vsi 48 mojih bojih so bili težko. None so bili enostavno. Vsa igrala pomembno ključ. To je "Mayweather Era.’ Menim, da je vsak borec umetnik in vsi so posnamete slike na svoj način. Jaz sem samo ena izmed najboljših umetnikov.
“Sem bil resnično blagoslovljena. Sem izvedel svoj čas, hrani moje oči na nagrado in storil, kar sem moral storiti. Tako da sem lahko, da izbira, ko se upokojijo. Večina borci res ne bi mogel.
“Boks je bil vedno dela z mano, služba. Če lahko rečem karkoli, da mladostnik ob nastopu boks, da bi bilo za “biti pameten in ne bo veliko udarcev. To se imenuje sladka znanost z razlogom. Hit in ne bo hit, bi veliko denarja, ne da bi veliko kazen. To je tisto, kar je približno.
“Nihče ne ve, kaj prinaša prihodnost, ampak zdaj, I’m cool and comfortable and having no second thoughts at all about retirement. Imel sem dober kariero, Sem osvojil vse, naslov svetovnega prvaka, ampak boks je obraba na telesu. To je čas, da "visi em up. Veselim se sodelovanja z nekaterimi up-and-prihajajo otroke, gredo na sprehode, in ob počitnice.”
Leonard Ellerbe
“Vsi ljudje rekel je da je Berto 3-3 V svojih zadnjih šestih bojih, vendar je bil Pacquiao 3-3 V svojih zadnjih šestih bojev, preveč. Cotto je izgubil dva od svojih zadnjih pet bojev. Ampak oni so tako odpravili na Hall of Fame.
“Vemo Berto prihaja boriti, da je on prišel za zmago in šokiral svet. Ni šans, Floyd si je priboril rahlo. On dela samo tako težko za ta boj, kot je to storil prejšnji 48.
“Floyd je moj prijatelj, smo družina, vendar čestitam in mu čestitam za to, kar je naredil, kaj ste dosegli, kako uspešna je, kako uspešen je bil od 1996 zdaj.
“To je resnično izjemen. Da bi lahko oditi na lastne pogoji, slediti svoj načrt igre, je neverjetno. Na 38, on je dobil boatload denarja na banki, vsi njegovi sposobnosti in mu ni bilo svojo pot. To je American Dream.
“Floyd mogel boriti tako dolgo, kot želi, če bi bilo tisto, kar je želel storiti. Ljudje ne razumejo, kaj se dogaja v njegovi obrti. On trenira okoli uro. On je dal svoje življenje v njegovi karieri. On je pripravljen za vožnjo off na naslednjo fazo svojega življenja. On je zaslužil to pravico.
“Izdelali smo zavezo, in smo se po svojo pogodbo. Poleg tega, koliko je dovolj? Koliko se lahko vprašamo nekoga? Koliko več bi lahko on da?’
“To bo zadnji boj Floyd. Zelo sem navdušena zanj. On je to naredil svojo pot. On je imel slavni kariero in vem, da je zelo udobno s tem, kar je bilo mogoče doseči.”
Badou Jack
“Odkrito, Mislim, da je ta boj bi ukradel šov in bo boj noči. To bo zelo, zelo zabaven.
“Groves je vsekakor dobra, težka borec, On ima veliko hitrostjo, Veliko srce. Sem ga spoštoval. . Boril se je Carl Froch dvakrat. Ampak jaz nisem Froch in ne boj, kot Froch. Imamo različne stile.
“To je moja prva obramba in sem zelo navdušen nad njim, vendar sem vedno ohranila malih in zatiranih mentaliteto, in da se nikoli ne bo spremenilo. Poskušam ostati ponižni. Še vedno sem isti človek, ampak tako, da postane svetovni prvak je edini, ki me delajo še težje.
“Jaz sem še vedno učenje, trdo delati. Vem, da ne morem pogledati mimo vsakogar. Obstaja veliko potencialnih res velikih bojev v prihodnje – in želim se boriti najboljšo ni važno, če je GGG, Andre Ward, kdor.
“Ampak zdaj moja edina Poudarek je na načrtu igro in jo izvršuje. Jaz sem resnično veselimo bojev [George] Groves in zmago na september. 12.”
Ishe Smith
“Ne grem, da bi vse napovedi. Jaz sem samo šel ven in to, kar delam, in da je dal 100 odstotkov.
“To bom rekel,, čeprav, če misli, da se dogaja, da me knock out, kot je že rekel, to se dogaja, da je zelo zabaven boj.
“Sem osvojil svetovni naslov, kot B strani, ampak čutim, da sem na strani A na tem boju. Sem borili najboljši v delitev, za leta in leta, Sem sparred z najboljšimi.
“Martirosyan je dober človek in ima lepo družino, vendar je ni bilo s fanti, kot sem. Fantje, ki so boljši in prizadela veliko težje od njega. Nikoli nisem bil dol. Nikoli nisem sprejela osem štetje. Jaz sem 34 let in nikoli ni bil poškodovan, in on pravi, da me se bo ustaviti. To je samo nor.
“Jaz sem stave na moji bradi, to je gotovo. On ni mogel knock out [Jermell] Charlo V svoji zadnji boj. Naredil je vse vrste izgovorov za izgubo. Razlog je izgubljen je bil, ker je izgubila proti boljši borec.
“Če hoče, da gre za KO, redu; če je to njegova osredotočenost. Za mene, Nisem razmišljal KO. Jaz sem samo razmišljal zmago.”

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

Floyd Mayweather & Manny Pacquiao Square Off
In Another Classic Showdown

In The Welterweight Division

LAS VEGAS (April 20, 2015) — It has often been said that “as the heavyweight division goes, so goes boxing,” but that has not always been the case and, v resnici, might not even be valid when viewed from a comprehensive perspective dating back to the late 19th century. V 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, naMaj 2 at MGM Grand in Las Vegas, živijo na pay-per-pogled, welterweight prvak Floyd “Denar” 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 standard” to 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 card – you needed one to be certified as a non-professional – in the name of Ray Robinson, one of his boxers who had given up the sport. Smith/Robinson won a four-round decision, in, although no one knew it then, thus was a legend born.

 

Robinson was 85-0 as an amateur before turning pro at 19 v 1940. S 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, prebijanje moči, 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 his “golf 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. V 2013, he said, “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 “Kid” Lewis and “Mysterious” Billy 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, say, Leonard-Duran I, which Duran won on a rousing unanimous decision on June 25, 1980, v Montrealu? The epic Leonard-Hearns I, on 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.

Over 300 media from around the globe flocked to Wild Card Boxing Club to ask the trio about Pacquiao’s Maj 2 welterweight world championship unification battle against undefeatedFLOYD “Denar” MAYWEATHER JR. (47-0, 26 Kos), v MGM Grand Garden Areni v Las Vegasu.

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

 

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. S tem, da omenjena, 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.

 

“Veselim do Maj 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.”
