Russell Jr. bydd yn gwneud yr amddiffyniad cyntaf ei Pencampwriaeth y Byd Pwysau Plu CLlC yn erbyn Colombia Oscar ESCANDON (24-2, 16 Kos) yn y prif achos o Showtime PENCAMPWRIAETH BOCSIO ar Dydd Sadwrn, Tachwedd. 14, yn byw ar Showtime (10:45 p.m. A/PT) o Westy Hard Rock & Casino yn Las Vegas.
Dyma beth Russell Jr, Gary Russell Sr. (Tad a hyfforddwr Gary) ac Gary Antonio Russell(Brawd iau Gary a gobaith bocsio diguro) roedd yn rhaid i ddweud ar ddydd Mawrth:

GARY RUSSELL JR.:
“Gwersyll hyfforddi yn mynd mawr, rydym yn gywir ar gwrs. Roedd ig mân yn y gwersyll oherwydd fy mod oedd i fod i ymladd ar Hydref. 24. Dechreuais sparring, but once the fight got pushed back to Tachwedd 14 I cut the sparring off. Doeddwn i ddim eisiau i uchafbwynt yn rhy gynnar.
“Heddiw (Dydd Mawrth) Roedd fy niwrnod cyntaf yn ôl sparring eto. Dw i'n gweithio ar fy amseru, ring generalship and lateral movement. We’re right on course.
“Oscar ESCANDON yn gryf ac yn wydn. Mae'n dod ymlaen yn syth. Os ei gornel yn smart byddent yn ceisio i fynd i ffwrdd fy cyflymder llaw a fydd yn ffactor mawr yn y frwydr. Bydd angen iddo gau'r pellter, mygu fy punches felly nid cyflymder yn ffactor.
“Rydym yn gweithio ar ddod yn ymladd yr un mor gyfforddus ar y tu allan gan fy mod yn ymladd ar y tu mewn.
“Mae llawer o ddiffoddwyr yn un-dimensiwn. Rydym yn ceisio gwneud hynny ddisgleirio diemwnt ar bob ochr.
“Gwn y byddaf yn fuddugol heb amheuaeth. Dylai unrhyw un yr ydych yn ei gael yn y cylch gyda'r rhain bach, 8-ounce gloves always has a possibility of creating an upset whether he’s a big puncher or not. Dim ond yn cymryd un ergyd. It’s the fighters’ job to take away that opportunity.
“Rwy'n edrych ymlaen i ymladd, cyfnod. I don’t even think about this fight being a title defense. Mae'n cymryd math arbennig o caledwch meddwl a chryfder seicolegol i gael yn y cylch ac yn perfformio. Dylai unrhyw un sy'n cael yn y cylch yn fy erbyn yn bencampwr yn fy llygaid.
“It’s been about seven months since I fought. I’m always anxious to get back in the ring.
“Os byddaf yn cael y gorffennol ESCANDON Byddwn wrth fy modd i ymladd Leo Santa Cruz, we fought in the amateurs. But we never underestimate any opponent and we are focused on getting this fight out of the way first. Lee Selby is another guy that we’re looking at. Of course Abner Mares, hyd yn oed er iddo golli, would be a great fight. These are the type of guys that we’d like to fight.
“Mae cael fy nheulu gyda mi yn ystod gwersyll hyfforddi yn golygu popeth i mi. Mae'n lle dwi'n cael fy ynni o. Mae llawer o guys yn teimlo fel yn rhaid iddynt fynd i ffwrdd ar gyfer gwersyll hyfforddi, ond nid oes rhaid i mi adael cartref. Mae fy nheulu yw'r grym y tu ôl i fy gwersyll hyfforddi a lle yr wyf yn dod o hyd fy ngallu a chymhelliant. Ar ddiwedd y dydd, Rwy'n blwch ar gyfer fy nheulu.
“Os bydd fy mrawd yn dod i ben i fyny yn ymladd ar fy undercard byddai'n cŵl iawn i mi. Bydd yn ddoniol oherwydd os yw'n cystadlu, byddwch yn bendant yn fy ngweld yn gweithio ei gornel cyn fy frwydr teitl.”
SR GARY RUSSELL.:
“Rwy'n gwybod ei fod yn ornest bencampwriaeth, ond rydym yn mynd i mewn i bob frwydr fel ei fod yn frwydr deitl. Nid ydym yn gwybod tunnell am ei wrthwynebydd, rydym yn unig yn hyfforddi fel hyrwyddwyr.
“Mae gen i chwe mab, pob un ohonynt yn diffoddwyr. Maent i gyd yn wahanol briodoleddau fel pobl sy'n cyfieithu i mewn i wahanol pwy ydynt fel pobl ac yn y cylch.
“Antonio Russell yn 4-0, mae wedi gweithio'n galed iawn i gyd ei fywyd. Y tu allan i'r gampfa, gall atgyweiria unrhyw beth. Antoine, sydd ond yn gymwys i gael y treialon Olympaidd, yn wych.

“Ar ôl i mi ennill, Rwy'n ymlaen i'r nesaf. Rydw i'n hyfforddi i ymladd yn gyson. Rwy'n gobeithio y gallaf gael y boi allan yn gynnar, os daw ac yn cyflwyno ei hun. Yna Byddwn wrth fy modd i ymladd ar gerdyn fy mrawd hŷn bythefnos ar ôl.”

CARSON, Calif. (Ebrill 18, 2015) – Confident and determined, Andrzej “The PolishPrince” Fonfara (27-3, 16 Kos) spoiled the ring return of Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. (48-2-1, 32 Kos) in resounding fashion Dydd Sadwrn nos, flooring the former middleweight champion one time en route to a one-sided ninth-round TKO in the main event ofShowtime PENCAMPWRIAETH BOCSIO byw ar Showtime.

 

Fonfara, of Chicago by way of Radon, Gwlad Pwyl, dropped Chavez, of Culiacan, Sinaloa, Mecsico, with a wide left hook 50 seconds into the ninth round before a boisterous crowd of 8,636 predominately-Chavez fans at StubHub Center. It was the first time in 52 professional fights that Chavez had hit the canvas from a punch.

 

Upon returning to the corner, Chavez could be heard on the telecast telling trainer Joe Goossen that he had hurt his right leg and could no longer continue. Munudau yn ddiweddarach, the fight was halted. The busier and more accurate fighter throughout, Fonfara was comfortably ahead on the three judges’ scorecards by scored of 89-80 ac 88-81 twice after nine full rounds.

 

Offered an ecstatic Fonfara, who had his fair share of Polish fans at the venue: “I knew he was a tough fighter, quick and in good shape but when he hit me for the first time in the first round, I knew I was going to win this fight. He didn’t punch as hard as everybody said he did.

 

“I saw his punches easily coming in. I know I threw more punches. I was a little surprised that he did not come out for the (10fed) but he was cut, had been getting beat up and had just got knocked down, so he knew what would happen if he came out.

 

“Chavez said before the fight that he didn’t think I could take his body punches. I think I took them pretty good and passed that test.

 

“I know there are things I can still work on in training to become a more complete boxer, ondheno was a dream come true. I want a rematch with (Light Heavyweight World Champion) Adonis Stevenson.

 

Said Chavez, the son of legendary Mexican icon, Julio Cesar Chavez Sr. in the ring afterward and before he was taken to the hospital as a precautionary measure, “Maybe 170,172 pounds is too big for me, maybe I’ll go back down. I’m not sure what my future holds. It was a very tough fight. But I congratulate Andrzej.”

 

Goossen told reporters afterward that he had “stopped the fight. It was my decision. I didn’t like what I saw. ”

 

In the first half of a SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING doubleheader, undefeated world-ranked super lightweight Amir Rwyf (17-0, 14 Kos), of Davie, Fla., drwy gyfrwng Albany, N.Y., won a lopsided 10-round decision over Walter “Mae'r Hammer” Castell.

 

The talented, versatile, Mae gen i, 24, controlled a fight that featured numerous exchanges especially early on with a left jab and straight right hand.

 

“My combinations were effective the whole night, we stuck to our gameplan and came out victorious,” said Imam. “I want any of the world champions next”.

 

Castell, who saw a nine-fight winning streak come to an end, Dywedodd “I thought I won the fight. I didn’t get credit for the punches I threw. The judge who scored it 100-90; yn dda, that gives me no chance to win here. The cut bothered me in the early rounds, but was not a factor after.”

 

Yn gynharach Dydd Sadwrn, on SHOWTIME EXTREME, undefeated Moises “El Chucky” Blodau (23-0, 16 Kos), o Guadalajara, Mecsico, captured the WBA Super Bantamweight Interim World Championship with a thrilling 12-round split decision over defending champion Oscar ESCANDON (24-2 16 Kos), of Tolima, Colombia.

An emotional Flores was near tears afterward. “Mae hyn yn gwireddu breuddwyd – more than a dream come true – for me,” dywedodd. “I saw my family on the beach, eating meat. I saw my babies better dressed. For me this is a life-changing victory and, ie, I thought it was very, very close but I absolutely feel I won.

 

“I want to fight the best next, the top guys at 122 pounds and right now the top guy is Leo Santa Cruz. That’s who I’d like to fight next. I really want to thank all my team, from top to bottom, for giving me this wonderful opportunity. We’re very happy that we joined the Al Haymon team. We’re very loyal and we just really appreciate everything they’ve done for us.”

 

Escandon felt he’d done enough to win despite injuring the right index finger on his right hand in the seventh round.

“I did all that I could, everything was in my reach, but I think I broke or fractured my finger,” dywedodd. “In boxing things happen that are out of your control. Because I hurt my hand, I couldn’t throw punches the way I wanted to with my right hand. I tried to do all I could with it. But I didn’t want to injure it further. I’m OK, but I definitely would love a rematch.”

 

In the SHOWTIME EXTREME co-feature, pwysau welter super Omar “El Businessman”Chavez (33-3-1, 22 Kos), of Culiacan, the younger brother of Chavez, Jr. and son of legendary Julio Cesar Sr., won an exciting, caled-ymladd, give-and-take eight-round unanimous decision over Richard Gutierrez (28-16-1, 17 Kos), of Arjona, Colombia.
