LEO SANTA CRUZ
“Headlining a televised card has been my childhood dream. I could have never imagined I was going to get this far. And Here I am, on my second main event, defending my title on a premium network. I’m so psyched. I cannot believe it.
“The first time I put the gloves on, I knew that I had found my craft, and I also knew that it was not going to be an easy road. I knew that I had to work hard to become a champion. Tako, I trained the hardest and I fought the hardest, and with my father by my side I got here, where I’m at today. I owe him everything.
“I remember watching all the great Mexican Champions and day dreaming about being like them one day. It felt unreachable. I thought it was impossible to get where they were. But I worked hard, really hard from the beginning.
“The most important thing is that the fans leave happy and get their money’s worth. I’m glad that Kiko has come prepared because we’re ready for a great fight.
“People are saying that I should walk through Kiko Martinez, but I don’t listen to that. I look at Kiko the same way I look at any other opponent. When we step inside the ring, we are equals.
“At the end of the day, the winner will be the fighter who has prepared more and who has imposed his will on the other man.
KIKO MARTINEZ
“I have faced much stronger boxers than Leo and come Subota, all of those who did bet on me for this fight, I am going to make you a lot of money.
“I am excited and proud to know that Sergio Martinez will be present u subotu supporting me. His guidance and presence
“My trainer could not be here, but we have not taken one day off in training camp and I have been pushed to my limit to prepare me for this fight. I’m thankful to Robert Garcia for being in my corner u subotu.
“I know this is a great opportunity to fight Leo Santa Cruz and I will make the most of it. I’m going to leave everything inside the ring so that the fight fans enjoy a great championship matchup.
“I feel that Leo Santa Cruz is a great fighter, he has beat some incredible fighters. He’s a great athlete and boxer. Sometimes people will try to make him out to be more than he actually is but they are mistaken with what they see in me. I am not to be mistaken as the underdog here.
JULIO CEJA
“As Hugo mentioned, we have both trained even harder than last time and we’re more prepared physically and mentally.
“I’m going to give everybody a great fight just like last time. I’m walking into the ring knowing my opponent very well. We’ve been to war. I know what to expect from him. I know about his punch and I know how to counter it.
“I’m going to be alert and ready. I’ll be a little more intelligent, because I know that he’s coming well prepared and he’s coming for the world title, but he’s not going to get it.
“There are going to be no surprises in this fight. Hugo Ruiz said that he was training harder this time. But I am too. I’ve trained very hard.
“The key for me to win this fight is to keep my hands up and to not give him one inch. I cannot be careless. I’ll be strategic and use my wisdom. I cannot come in with my hands down because I know I’ll pay for it. But nothing to worry about, we have rectified those issues in training camp. Spreman sam. He’s not taking my belt away from me.
“I’m glad that he says he is better prepared this time because I am better than ever. My team has been instrumental in preparing me for this matchup.
“The winner will be the man who is more prepared physically and mentally. But the real winner will be the fans at Honda Center because this is an amazing card and we’re going to put on an amazing fight.”
HUGO RUIZ
“If you liked the first fight between us, then you are going to love this one.
“I’m excited to be fighting once again in Southern California. I’ve trained very hard and I have prepared myself for this world title opportunity.
“I’m looking forward to putting on a grand show for all my fans u subotu noći. "
JOSE SANTA CRUZ, Santa Cruz’ Father & Trener
“I hear Kiko has a great trainer on his corner. Robert Garcia is really good, but I have news for Kiko, his trainer is not going to fight for him.
“Once a fighter steps into the ring, he’s alone in there. There are no trainers and no great promoters that can fight for him.”
“Kiko speaks about this prestigious trainer and thinks that by mentioning him, he is going to intimidate us. He has something else coming. The trainer won’t fight for Kiko. Roberto Garcia has trained my son and knows Leo very well but that does not give Kiko the upper hand.”
TOM BROWN, Head of TGB Promotions
“Southern California favorite Leo Santa Cruz returns to bring his action style to the ring. He will be opposed by a tough former world champion in Kiko Martinez who is sure to make this a tremendous fight.
“The first fight between Ceja and Ruiz was a true back and forth war. Should this pick up right where it left off, we will have a great fight to start the telecast.
“I’m looking forward to a great night u subotu night in front of the fantastic Southern California boxing fans.”
TIM RYAN, CEO & President of Honda Center
“I’m so thankful to everyone for helping to bring boxing back to Orange County. It’s hard to believe that Julio Cesar Chavez fought here in 1996, because it seems like yesterday.
“We have a great arena and a great fan base that loves boxing here in Orange County. karticu u subotu is wonderful. I know these guys will be ready and I’m looking forward to an action-packed night on the 27th.
CHRIS DEBLASIO, Potpredsjednik, Sports Communication Showtime Networks
“This is a fight fan’s fight card and we are looking forward to some explosive action. I think everyone knows that the lighter weight classes, especially at the championship level, produce exciting fights. My favorite examples include the epic series between Israel Vazquez and Rafael Marquez, which are available on SHOWTIME platforms and should wet your appetite for what we will see u subotu noći. "

ANAHEIM, Kalif. (Februar. 16, 2016) – Spain’s Kiko “Sensación” Martinez is a soft-spoken, hard-hitting former IBF Super Bantamweight World Champion and a three-time European champion at 122 funti. He’s a come-forward, comes-to-win, aggressive-minded slugger who makes for exciting fights and has been in with excellent opposition.
The ultimate road warrior, the 5-foot-5, 29-year-old Martinez has fought more than one-third of his fights outside his native Spain, where he has tussled 26 puta. He’s also fought four times in Ireland, three times in England, three times in Northern Ireland and one time each in Japan, Argentina, France and South Africa.
So don’t expect Martinez (35-6, 26 KOs) to be in awe of the surroundings in his second start in the United States when he challenges unbeaten, defending featherweight world champion Leo Santa Cruz (31-0-1, 17 KOs) na Subota, Februar. 27, u glavnom slučaju SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING tripleheader živjeti SHOWTIME (10 poslije podne. I/7 poslije podne. PT) from Honda Center in Anaheim, Kalif.
Martinez won his U.S. debut and the IBF 122-pound crown with a sixth-round TKO overJhonatan Romero Kol. 17, 2013. “That was a great night for me,’’ Martinez said. “I’m confident of another great performance on Feb. 27.''
A winner of three in a row in his homeland, including a fourth-round TKO over Miguel Gonzalez posljednji Decembar. 12, Martinez aims to make amends after losing three high-profile fights in recent years to super bantamweight world champions – twice to Carl Frampton(IBF) and once to Scott QUIGG (WBA).
Martinez gets an opportunity against Santa Cruz in a fight he never saw coming.
“I’m thrilled to be fighting Leo Santa Cruz, but getting this fight was a total surprise because I already had a fight scheduled,’’ said Martinez, who trains at his friend and manager, former world super middleweight champion Sergio Martinez’ gym in Spain. “I had been scheduled to fight for the European title. When this opportunity came up, I decided to give up the European title to come to America.
“I was very happy and very emotional when I heard about this fight. It was one of the best days of my life when I agreed to fight Santa Cruz. Sada, more boxing fans will get to see me. I will not take one step back. I will come forward the whole fight.
“I’m thankful to SHOWTIME and I’m excited for the challenge. It’s a huge fight in the United States and a great opportunity. Some people don’t think I can fight because I lost to those guys [Frampton and Quigg], but they are wrong. I am as determined as ever. I’m going to fight a great fight and come out with a victory.’’
While respectful of the champion, Martinez is no stranger to fighting on foreign soil and is poised to pull off a stunner.
“I will surprise many people who don’t believe in me,'', Rekao je. “I’m working so hard for this fight. People doubting me has me even more motivated. They will see on Feb. 27 and everyone will change their minds.
“I love fighting in my opponent’s backyard. That is not a problem for me at all. People who know boxing know I will give everything to this sport. I want to give great shows and entertain people. I’m coming forward and throwing punches and I don’t give up.
“I’m going to give 100 percent and it’s going to be a tremendous fight. I have a ton of respect for Leo Santa Cruz. He’s a world champion and a great fighter who’s clearly one of the very best featherweights in the world and a Top 10 pound-for-pound borac. I am very conscious of that point.
“Leo and I are true warriors so this will be a brutal war. But I have what it takes. I’ve been working very hard with my longtime trainer, Gaby Sarmiento, and I will be victorious.’’
A lifelong resident of Spain, Martinez was born in Granada, Španija, and resides in Alicante. He has two sisters and two brothers but is the only one in the family who boxes professionally. He turned to boxing as a young teenager.
“I started in boxing because when I was about 13 I was smaller and other kids bullied me all the time. So I began looking for a way to learn to defend myself,'', Rekao je. “Once I decided to start boxing and dedicated myself to it I fell in love with the sport.’’
Kao amater, Martinez went 47-2 and won a Spanish national amateur championship, but he had no international amateur experience. “I had a good amateur career but never thought about the Olympics,'', Rekao je. “My mind was always on being a pro fighter.’’
A dangerous puncher who’s at his best when he pressures his opponents and wears them down, Martinez turned pro in June 2004. He was victorious in his initial 17 tuče, winning all but three by knockout.
Martinez met Sergio Martinez [no relation] about nine years ago. “I met Sergio in the gym in Spain that he used to train himself in and we became good friends. When I started boxing I looked up to Julio Cesar Chavez and I am now a big fan of Marcos Maidana. I like to fight like him.
“But I’ve always had a special relationship with Sergio, who inspired me because he came from poverty like me. He has taught me so much. It’s like looking into a mirror because he knows where I came from. He’s taught me so much inside and outside the ring. We were very poor growing up and my father worked very hard.’’
Ako trijumfalan, Kiko Martinez says “I would like to stay at this weight because I feel much stronger. But I would definitely love a rematch with Frampton or Quigg.’’
Regarding the Frampton-Quigg 122-pound world title unification that also takes place onFebruar. 27 (u Manchester, Engleska, živjeti SHOWTIME EXTREME®), Martinez didn’t hesitate when picking a winner.
“Frampton will win against Quigg,’’ Martinez said. “He’s the more complete boxer. He is stronger as well.”

Quebec City, Kanada (Novembar. 29, 2015) - James DeGale je branio svoju IBF Super srednjoj Svjetsko prvenstvo u trileru preko rodni grad omiljeni i bivši šampion Lucian Bute u subotu u glavni događaj SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOKS.
Bio je to prvi naslov odbrane DeGale, u 2008 Olimpijski osvajač zlatne medalje iz Velike Britanije koji su na putu za Boston da osvoji titulu ranije ove godine i odlučio da se brani u neprijateljskom teritoriju.
Bute, koji je pokušavao da povrati IBF pojas branio devet puta između 2007 i 2012, put on an inspired and gutsy performance in an electric atmosphere to open the new Videotron Centre in Quebec City. But the unbelievable pace, kao i arsenal prstima prava, Body Shots i kombo iz mlađe DeGale (22-1, 14 KOs) Pokazalo se da je razlika kao DeGale prevladala 116-112, 117-111 (dvaput).
"Ja sam mlad i ja sam svježe. Ja sam sada izviru,” DeGale said. “I’m ready for the best in the world. Krediti Bute – on je veliki šampion i vjerujte mi, on će se vratiti. "
"Kao što sam rekao u prošlosti, On je vrhunski borac. I dalje imam stvari raditi u naredne tri ili četiri godine i ja ću biti moj najbolji. "
Bute (32-3, 25 KOs) didn’t look anything like the fighter that lost to Carl Froch in 2012. But while the 35-year-old stalked the switch-hitting DeGale with a relentless attack, nije mogao učiniti dovoljno da nadvlada na krajnje aktivna Brit, koji je bacio 524 snaga udaraca u odnosu na 278 za Bute.
“I think it was a great fight. I did my best tonight,” Bute said. “I think it was a close fight. He’s an Olympic champion, he’s a world champion. If the judges give him the decision I respect that. I’ll be back in the gym to work hard and continue to fight. I think it was a very close fight. I’m happy with my performance and I’ll be back in the gym to get back in the ring one more time.
“The last three years were difficult for me. After I lost to Carl Froch that was a very difficult period for me. I took a break, and now I’m back. Osećam veliku, Osećam zdrav i sada imam još jednu šansu da se vrati na vrh.
“Maybe a few rounds I waited too much and didn’t put the punches together and I let James fight me. When I pushed pressure and pushed back I won the round.”
U otvaranju meča na SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOKS, Eleider Alvarez stekli pravo da se suoči WBC u teškoj kategoriji Light svetski šampion Adonis Stevenson sa bliskim većinom odluku o Isaac Chilemba, postigao 114-114, 118-110, 115-113.
Alvarez, No rangirana. 2 po WBC u 175 funti, počela brzo i džep kola protiv Bez. 1 ranked contender Chilemba. But Chilemba weathered the storm and fought his way back in the fight as Alvarez couldn’t keep up the pace he established in the earlier rounds.
Oba borca izašla s osjećajem hitnosti u 12th i odlučivanje strofa i ako Chilemba je osvojio finalnoj rundi borbe bi vladali su neriješeno.
"Znao sam da moram završiti kasnije kola jak, ali mislim da sam učinio dovoljno da osvoji borbi,” Alvarez said. “I’m ready to accept the challenge and face Stevenson. Da bude svjetski prvak, morate pobijediti šampiona. Dakle, to je ono što ja radim za cilj. "
Mark tvrdi da ALVAREZ, koji se bori iz okolnih Montreal, je korisnik "Odluku rodni grad,"Iako je sudija koji je vladao u borbi neriješeno je lokalni, a druga dva su iz neutralne teritorije.
"Mislio sam da sam dovoljno da osvoji,” Chilemba said. “But it is what it is. Pretpostavljam da se to može nazvati odluku rodni grad. "
Nakon borbe, SHOWTIME Sportski domaćin Brian Custer sjeo sa Stevenson da mu misli o Alvarez-Chilemba i njegovu budućnost.
"To je bio blizak fizički borba,” Stevenson said. "On (Alvarez) osvojio je borba, ali bilo je jako blizu. "
"Mi govorimo o Kovalev jer WBC ga i dalje svrstava Ne. 1 kandidat. Želim ovu borbu da se desi. The fans want it to happen. I said June is perfect for me. He said ‘OK, Jun,', Rekao je Kathy Duva' Nema problema, June.’ Then she said on HBO. Ja sam rekao, "Zaboravi na televizorima, let them talk.’ We want the fight to happen. Let the TVs work together and make it happen.
“I want to fight Kovalev. That’s the best opportunity for me because I want his titles. For sure, this fight will happen in June. I don’t have a problem; my team doesn’t have a problem. I want this fight in June.
Kovalev is scared. I talked to him, saw it in his eyes that he’s scared of me. It will happen, but I know Kovalev is scared. I want Kovalev. I’m very hungry to get his titles.”
Adrian Granados preživio u prvom krugu nokaut na udarce neporaženi super lagani izglede Amir imama u otvaranju nastup SHOWTIME BOKS NA SHO EXTREME sa osmog kola TKO (2:34).
Bio je to poraz za imama, koji su ušli u borbu kao No. 1 obavezno izazivač za WBC Super lagana svjetski prvak Viktor Postol.
Imam looked like he was going to finish the fight early after a nice left-right combo floored the Chicago native. But after escaping the first, Granados diktirao tempo borbe, worked the inside and prevented Imam – considered one of boxing’s most talented young contenders – from establishing his jab. With Imam unable to keep the fight at a distance, Granados picked apart the Don King-promoted fighter. After seven rounds of punishment and Iman gasping for air against the ropes Granados finished his opponent with a series of devastating combo shots.
An ushićen Granados (15-3-2, 10 KOs), koji ima gubitke borcima sa kombinovanim rekord 49-0, izjasnio se njegov slučaj da postane obavezan izazivač.
"Mislim da bi trebao biti obavezno izazivač,” Granados said. “He was in line and I stopped him. Šta to znači? Come on. I was the underdog, Upravo sam se vratio da ga. Došao sam da ga.
"Sjajan je osećaj. Jednom sam ga wobbled bio sam kao, 'Moraš da ga sada. This time you’re not taking it from me.’ It was a flash knockdown. Uhvatio desnom rukom, ali sam bio u redu. I pukle odmah i znao sam da ću pokušati i završiti mene. Izašli smo iz nje i otišao pravo vratiti na posao. "
Unatoč gubitku demorališuće, Imam (18-1, 15 KOs) ne žali uzimanje borba koja će vjerojatno knock ga iz naslova sporenja.
"Znam da ljudi mogu reći da nije trebalo uzeti ovu borbu, ali mi je trebalo ovo borba između kao tune-up za moj sljedeći borbu jer nisam htela da čekati šest do osam mjeseci za hitac svijet naslov.
"Ključ je borba bila moja jab, Ja jednostavno ne nisam ga dovoljno koristili,"Rekao je Imam. “But that’s the way it goes and I’m going to definitely come back stronger. I wasn’t thinking anything after that first-round knockdown. I’ve done that many times and didn’t think the fight was over. I wasn’t surprised at all by the way he came out. Ja znam kako se bori. On je dobar borac i to je sve što je potrebno. "

STACY McKinley, Imam menadžer i trener
"Ne mogu ništa naći moramo raditi na. Amir je jak i tehnički zvuk i on se više iskusan svaki put se bori. On je razoran udarač. On je pun paket i to je vrlo teško pronaći. Oni ne dolaze oko prečesto.
"Ja bih mu da se bori Adrien Broner iduće godine. Ja bih da se bore svi momci i ujediniti sve titule naredne godine. Boks će trebati novi superstar sada da Floyd Mayweather je nestao, a mi nećemo čekati 15 godine kako bi još jednom. Mislim da je Amir ujedinjuje sve naslove u 140 i 147, onda bismo imali naš novi superstar unutar 36 mjeseci.
"On mora da iskoristi svoj jab da osvoji u subotu. Ima prekrasan jab, najbolji ubod u boksu. I sve mora doći odmah iza njega. "
