马山, 康涅狄格州. (四月. 17, 2016) – WBC Featherweight World Champion 加里·拉塞尔JR. retained his title with a remarkable TKO of Irishman 帕特里克·海兰 星期六on SHOWTIME from Fox Theater at Foxwoods Resort Casino in Mashantucket, 康涅狄格州. 在共同特征, 何塞·佩德拉萨 defended his IBF Junior Lightweight title with a unanimous decision over Stephen Smith.

 

今晚的 event was a family affair with Russell Jr. working his brother Antonio’s corner during 今晚的 undercard and boxing’s Smith brothers, including current WBO Super Welterweight World Champion Liam Smith, cheering from the crowd.

 

A relentless Russell brought the main event to a quick halt by registering three knockdowns in the second round, the last of which forced referee Danny Schiavone to end the contest at 1:33. 从第一钟, 华盛顿, D.C. native came out swinging with his trademark hand speed and dangerous power. 罗素, 一个左撇子, successfully broke down—and knocked out—Hyland with multiple vicious right hooks.

 

“We stuck to the game plan. We stayed sharp,” said Russell Jr., 谁改进他的纪录 27 胜, one loss, 15 击倒.

 

“I’m ready to fight anyone in the division – Santa Cruz, 李谢肃方. We are ready. But what I really want is [Vasyl] Lomachenko. I don’t care if he moves up to 147 英镑. I will go anywhere to get that fight,” Russell said.

 

“There aren’t many fighters who you instantly know are special,” said SHOWTIME Sports expert analyst Steve Farhood. “The combination of Gary Russell’s hand speed and accuracy instantly shows us that he’s special. That was plainly evident 今晚 and at times his hand speed was frightening.”

 

佩德拉萨 (22-0, 12 科斯) remained disciplined and came out victorious during his second IBF 130-pound world title defense. A combination of timing, hand speed and good defense allowed the Puerto Rican native to dominate the 12-round championship fight.

 

“This definitely was a tough fight but the training really came to advantage in this fight,” Pedraza told SHOWTIME Sports reporter Jim Gray. “I knew he was a tough fighter so I was always aware.”

 

“I had better focus 今晚. I had a better training camp,” said Pedraza, referring to his controversial split decision win over Edner Cherry two fights ago. “I knew that Stephen Smith was a great fighter and even after the knockdown, we were very cautious not to rush in.”

 

“Pedraza won 今晚 with different weapons. Mostly right hands to the head,“Farhood的说. “I had the fight even after eight rounds and once Pedraza dropped Smith in the ninth, he gained momentum that he never lost and he pulled away. It was an impressive performance but also an important one because it erased a lot of the negative criticism Pedraza received in his controversial win over Edner Cherry.”

 

Pedraza was the more accurate fighter, 着陆 50 percent of his power punches over the 12-round bout. The Sniper was able to pick his spots and pocket rounds once he figured out the distance. Smith had his moments, but wasn’t active enough.

 

布莱恩·卡斯特 hosted the SHOWTIME telecast, 同 毛罗Ranallo calling the action, Hall of Fame analyst 铝伯恩斯坦 and former two-time world champion 保利Malignaggi 和解说 吉姆·格雷 报告. 在西班牙联播, 亚历杭德罗·卢纳 called the blow-by-blow and former world champion 劳尔·马尔克斯 served as color commentator.

纽约 (四月 13, 2016) – WBC羽量级冠军 加里·拉塞尔JR. (26-1, 15 科斯), 国会高地, MD。, and Irish contender 帕特里克·海兰 (31-1, 15 科斯), of Dublin, faced off at the final press conference 星期三 at Highline Ballroom in New York, as they approach 这个星期六的 Featherweight World Title fight live on 开演时间® from the Fox Theater in Foxwoods Resort Casino in Mashantucket, CT.
精彩表演拳击锦标赛® telecast begins live at 11 P.M. AND/8 P.M. PT on SHOWTIME with IBF Junior Lightweight World Championship clash between unbeaten Puerto Rican 何塞·佩德拉萨 (21-0, 12 科斯) 和强制性挑战者 Stephen Smith (23-1, 13 科斯), of Liverpool, 英国.
Here’s what the fighters had to say at 周三 final press conference.
GARY RUSSELL JR.
(On Patrick Hyland…)
“首先, I gotta tip my hat off to him. I heard him say he was being trained by his father. Me and my younger brothers are also trained by my dad. My father is my favorite superhero, so it is very hard to deal with a situation like this and to bounce back and to grind and put all the hard work and effort into it after all the heartache and loss, I gotta tip my hat off to him for that.
I know that anytime you have a fighter that trains for six to eight weeks and prepares for no one else but you, is a dangerous fight. 他的身高, 他的长, but we can take him. We’re going to handle it.
(On returning from injury…)
“我感觉很好. 我准备好了; I put the work in at the gym. Like I said earlier, I got cussed out several times and sometimes I left the gym feeling like the worst fighter ever. 但, 现在, we’re ready and we’re prepared to invest in my ability.
(On what it means to have his brother Antonio on the card he’s headlining…)
It means a lot. 我对此很期待. I’m actually more looking forward to watching my brother compete than my own fight. I will definitely be working his corner in that fight. It means a lot for us to be able to pass this information down from generation to generation and watch it grow and watch us build as a family and as a unit. It’s amazing.
He definitely has the potential to be the best. Him as well as Antuanne, who is now on the 2016 国奥队. It’s all information passed down from generation to generation. I feel as though they definitely have the ability to be better than me. I would want them to be anyway.
(On what he needs to win the fight…)
I need to maintain control of the fight, close the distance and maintain the jab. Complete dominance; I want to touch the body early. He likes to move a lot, so we’re going to cut all that down.
(On potential future opponents…)
God willing, everything goes right come 四月 16, we would love to unify with Lee Selby. If I had my choice, I would go with Lee Selby first to unify. Immediately after that, I want Leo Santa Cruz and after that I need Lomachenko.
I don’t care where [Lomachenko] moves. He can lose his next 10 打架, but before my career’s done he has to see me.
PATRICK HYLAND
(On what gives him the sense of satisfaction in boxing…)
To fight for the WBC title is everything I’ve dreamed of since I was a kid and all of the hard work that I have put in to get to this position to fight for it. I am happy and I am just living for it now for 星期六 夜晚。”
(On being the first Irish boxer since Barry McGuigan to hold a featherweight world title…)
It’s a whirlwind and it’s great. I’m just a local lad from Johnstown in Dublin and to be fighting on the big stage and to be fighting for a major world title, and again to be named the second featherweight ever to win a world title would be just amazing; a real dream come true for myself.
(On Gary Russell…)
I know he’s got fast hands. He’s a great southpaw and a great boxer so I have to be at the best of my ability 周六 night for that. I worked on a game plan in the gym to counter his hand speed and it all has to come together on fight night. I can do all this and say all that, but I just have to perform 周六 night and put it in by doing everything I’ve worked on to become champion.
何塞·佩德拉萨
(在训练营…)
I am feeling really good, we’re in the last stretch of conditioning. It was a very long and intense training camp but we saw improvements in my abilities. I have been waiting a long time for this day to come and we are going to demonstrate to Smith that I am a weapon.
(On Stephen Smith)
Smith is a very good boxer, he has a lot of abilities and intelligence. He’s a boxer with very good defense, but we already utilize a variety of strategies to be able to neutralize all of his abilities.
(On what he plans to demonstrate 周六…)
With my abilities, 例如 星期六, I will demonstrate that I am above Smith and that I am at the level of what I am, a champion. 总体, I just want to put on a show and I hope that the fan base will enjoy this great card.
(On what he learned from fighting Edner Cherry)
I learned what I have always said and what I have always done to this very day, which is never watching. I never watch too many videos of my opponent because on the day of the fight he could be a completely different fighter and I think that is what occurred then. Aside from that, he utilized a great strategy.
(On his thoughts on other Puerto Rican boxers)
Actually I am a world champion just like Rocky Martinez; there are many Puerto Rican prospects. 如 [菲利克斯] Verdejo but I don’t consider him as a world title contender just yet. He hasn’t fought with a boxer of championship caliber but he is currently among the top fighters in Puerto Rico.
(On other fights he may be interested in at 130 英镑…)
I have always said that the less Puerto Ricans I fight, 更好. If it is the last option, I will fight with Puerto Ricans too but aside from that Rocky [马丁内斯] the world champ, there’s Francisco Vargas, [哈维尔] 运气, to name a few that are at the top of my list.
STEPHEN SMITH
(On his first time fighting in the U.S….)
“我很兴奋. If you want to make a name in boxing, then you’re going to do it in the states and that’s what I plan on doing by becoming a world champion Saturday.
(On what he knows about Pedraza)
“很好, not quite a lot. I know his name from the amateur days. He’s well established, he’s an Olympian and he’s a talented man. To fight somebody consists of winning or not, it goes beyond tactics, beyond style and beyond skillset really. I believe I have what it takes to fight anyone and nothing will keep me from becoming a world champion.
(On what he needs to do to get the victory)
It can be a different type of fight; we know he likes to switch it up and box from different stances. He’s obviously talented so it’s going to take a different set from each way but we know what to expect. I’ve gone over everything with my trainer Joe Gallagher and we’re ready to go.
(On his brothers Liam and Callum being champions and what it could mean to potentially join them)
It’s special. Two weeks ago Liam and Callum won a European world title and it just gives me the confidence, the spirit to hike. I’m in a really good place mentally and I couldn’t be feeling better going into it. After my boot camp going successfully, it just makes you feel better going ahead to become a world champion.
(On UK champions on the rise in the past year)
There’s a lot of history there and for myself and my family, so we do what we’ve always wanted to do and we’re looking to just keep moving forward.
TRAINER JOE GALLAGHER
(在训练营…)
It was good. Obviously it boiled up to Callum’s win. There’s a good momentum. Callum and then Stephen has his world title opportunity. It’s been a slow burning rise with Stephen but he’s got, as I call it ‘his World Cup final’ — something that is going to take heart and strength. His strength is going very well. Pedraza is a very good fighter, good orthodox, good southpaw, he can mix it up and we’re prepared for whatever style he wants to bring 周六.”
(On the process of preparing for a fighter like Pedraza)
It’s a nightmare. It’s hard enough when you’re fighting a quality orthodox or a quality southpaw, of which he is, but not only that. He can also box on the back foot and on the front foot so we’re varying sparring partners, we’re mixing up the sparring in between the rounds, switching stances, and whichever way Pedraza wants to fight at the end of the night, I’m sure we’ll have an answer for.
(On how he feels the fight will play out)
I think that’s all up to Pedraza, looking back at a few of his fights, he boxes slow and gets off to a good start but then he seems to lose his way a little in rounds. When you watch him against [安德烈] Klimov, he started out very well, put him under manners very quickly and had him nearly beat by the fourth round but [安德烈] managed to stay in very well and boxed really well. He got to the middle rounds, lost his way a little bit, switched southpaw, so either way it’s going to be fascinating. We’ve just got to make sure we don’t get caught to early when he’s quick and he’s sharp and he’s trying to put manners in Stephen Smith and then take him into the deep waters like Edner Cherry.
(His prediction)
“Stephen Smith. Possibly by knockout. 别, definitely by knockout.

APRIL 16 TRAINING CAMP NOTES: GARY RUSSELL, PATRICK HYLAND, 何塞·佩德拉萨, STEPHEN SMITH

 

精彩表演拳击锦标赛® World Title Doubleheader

住在Showtime® (11 P.M. AND/8 P.M. PT) 从
Foxwoods Resort Casino in Mashantucket, CT

纽约 (四月 7, 2016) – The boxers who will be fighting 星期六, 四月 16 on a开演时间 CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING® world title doubleheader are deep into their respective training camps as they continue preparation for their bouts at 康州快活大赌场Mashantucket, CT.

 

在主要事件, 住在 开演时间® (11 P.M. AND/8 P.M. PT), the talented and speedy southpaw 加里·拉塞尔JR. (26-1, 15 科斯) makes the first defense of his WBC Featherweight World Title against Irish contender 帕特里克·海兰 (31-1, 15 科斯). In the SHOWTIME co-feature, unbeaten sniper 何塞·佩德拉萨 (21-0, 12 科斯) risks his IBF 130-pound world title as he defends his title for the second time against a mandatory challenger, Stephen Smith (23-1, 13 科斯).

 

罗素, who won the 126-pound title with a fourth-round knockout over defending champion Jhonny冈萨雷斯 三月 28, 2015, trains in Washington, D.C.

 

海兰, whose only loss suffered was to WBA Super Featherweight World Champion 哈维尔财神, has been training at a gym in Dublin, 爱尔兰, owned and operated by his trainer, Paschal Collins, whose older brother 史蒂夫 was a former two-time WBO world champion. Paschal Collins also boxed as a pro but is best known for being Irish heavyweight Kevin McBride’s head trainer during his shocking knockout of 迈克·泰森.

 

The switch-hitting Pedraza, 一 2012 波多黎各奥海, has been working out in his native Puerto Rico. 工匠, of Liverpool, 英国, has been training in the UK.

 

Below is what the confident boxers had to say with less than two weeks to go before their major fights:

 

加利罗素JR。, WBC轻量级世界冠军

(On Training Camp)

“I’ve been in camp in Washington, D.C. for about eight weeks. I suffered the head butt before my November fight but I have been able to train this whole time and returned to sparring eight weeks ago. It’s been a really long training camp but I’m ready to go. This is the hardest part. Fighting is easy, but the preparation before the fight is where the hard work comes in. Being out of the ring so long is difficult, but it’s part of the business. Everything happens for a reason and I’m just really keyed in mentally.”

 

(On fighting Patrick Hyland)

“Hyland is going to come in there to win. You have to have that confidence to get in the ring. He’s preparing himself, but the question is, will it be good enough? I highly doubt it. We don’t take anyone lightly and we prepare to the best of our abilities. Everyone in the ring can pull off the upset. That’s why I have to be prepared to the fullest.”

 

“He’s not really a pressure fighter so I might have to take the fight to him. He’s long and rangy and he tries to keep his distance. He’s not a big puncher but he definitely has the ability to steal a fight.”

 

(On the fighting Russell family)

“My brother Antuanne made the 2016 中美. Olympic Team in the 141-pound division and he has a chance soon to qualify for the games with a tournament in Azerbaijan. My other brother Antonio is going to be on my undercard as well. Within my family we’re actually the first set of four brothers to all win the National Golden Gloves. That just goes to show the level of coaching we get from our dad, to have a world champion, two Olympians and four National Golden Gloves winners. We’re trying to leave a legacy in this sport. We’re all very similar in temperament and attitude. We all want to be world champions.”

 

(On dealing with injuries)

“I’ve never had a fight where I was 100 百分. There’s always been something going on. I have had hand injuries since the beginning of my career but we have creative ways to handle that and preserve my hands. 现在, 我感觉好极了. I just have to pick my shots more, but that’s where the speed becomes a factor.”

 

(On possible future opponents)

“If I can get by Hyland, I want to fight the winner of the Lee Selby vs. Eric Hunter fight and unify titles. After that I’d like to see Leo Santa Cruz and take care of that. Then I want another crack at Vasyl Lomachenko. I don’t care what weight Lomachenko is at, I’ll follow him. He has to see me.”
PATRICK HYLAND, 羽量级的竞争者

 

(On Training Camp)

“I’ve been training at Celtic Warriors Gym in Dublin since before Christmas because I had a fight here (爱尔兰) 上 二月. 6 but pulled out when I got word that I was fighting on March 12 (在金神大赌场). When that fight was postponed, I took it easy for two weeks until the 四月 16show was announced. That’s when I started picking up training again. I’ve been training really hard and putting everything on the line to become WBC champ. We plan to arrive in the U.S. a week prior to the fight.”

(On fighting Gary Russell Jr.)
“To challenge a great champion, 加里·拉塞尔, 小, is an honor for me. I think Gary is an awesome fighter with great hand speed and boxing ability. I’ve been working with Jono Carroll, an unbeaten Irish southpaw with good hand speed and good movement, who is ideal for what I have to work on to beat Russell.”

(On fighting again in the U.S.)
“I love fighting in the U.S. because there’s always a great atmosphere at the fights and it’s the real home of boxing. I’ve met friends for life who I consider family from the Marlboro area (Hyland lived in Marlboro, 纽约州, for a couple of years). They’ll be at this fight, as always.”

(On the fighting Hyland brothers)
My brothers are no longer fighting. Their last fights were on the same show, 一月. 28, 2012 在大西洋城, which I headlined in (against Emmanuel Lucero). My older brother, Edward (“Pride of Tallaght”) fought at super featherweight. He runs his own Boxing Club in Dublin. My other brother, 保利, was a former European and Irish super bantamweight champion. He is back doing a bit of training. No other members of our Hyland family were in professional boxing. I’m hoping we’re not the last, 虽然, as I’ve got a few nephews and my own son now. One day they might lace up the gloves.”

何塞·佩德拉萨, IBF Super Featherweight World Champion

 

(On Training Camp)

“I am currently training in the Municipal gym in Cidra, P.R., where I took my first steps in boxing. I decided to train here because it feels like home and I can feel the warmth of my people and I am able to set an example for those who are starting out in boxing as well.”


“My training started in December and it is divided into two sections (morning and evening). During the morning portion we work on all of the specifics of boxing, including gloving up in addition to physical training lasting about three and a half hours. For the evening portion of the training I run. Two days a week it is track training and four days of the week it is distance running for about two hours in the evening, making it a total of about five and a half to six hours of work daily.’’

(On his diet)

“Actually, 感谢上帝, I do not have a strict diet and can eat all varieties of foods. I am doing really well with weight and I just reduce portions in the evenings during the final stages of the camp to meet the required 130 英镑. That’s why I do not miss any foods. My favorite foods are steak and other grilled foods. After the weigh-in I prefer the pastas my mom makes. She always prepares three different kinds for me.’’

 

(On his team)

“My team is composed of Mr. Luis Espada (trainer-manager), Francisco Flores (conditioning and track trainer), Andres Melendez (力量和体能) 和博士. Hector Santos (cutman and spiritual director). I’ve been with my trainer, who is my father, 为 14 years ever since I threw my first punch. I haven’t made any major changes since I became champion. I’ve remained the same humble young man from a small town. I just push myself more to reach the bigger fights in the five categories from 130 to 154.”

 

(On his challenger Stephen Smith)

“I have seen some videos with my team of his fights and I can see that he is a boxer with a lot of resources who utilizes hooks to the body just as much as to the head. He is strong but something that works in my favor is that he is a come-forward fighter. He can handle 12 rounds comfortably. I hope on fight night I can neutralize all of his abilities and get the victory. I wouldn’t doubt if the win came by a KO anywhere from the sixth through the eighth round.’’

(Plans for his future in boxing)

“There are conversations about going up to 135. I’ve been at this weight since 2007; my body is demanding for me to go up to 135. Eventually my aspirations as a boxer are to be able to make boxing history not just in Puerto Rico but in the world. I want to go up and be the champion in five categories.”

“First and foremost I would like to face Francisco Vargas; he’s a seasoned boxer and is strong with a lot of rage. He went to the Olympics like I did in 2008 and he became a champion in what could be considered the fight of the year for 2015, very dramatic. It would be the Mexico vs. Puerto Rico rivalry. Another fighter who I would like to face is the champion Javier Fortuna. He is simply just a loud mouth with a poor memory (or selective memory) but I’ll send him a note to look up what happened in boxing history during the Roman Cup 2006 在多明尼加共和国. I’ll leave it to him as an assignment.’’

 

(On his inspiration and role models)

“My biggest inspiration is my family. It is they who always, 日复一日, are there supporting me as my No. 1 fan. I am a pro-family man and my family is my engine with God as my strength. Together they inspire me to carry the responsibility on my shoulders of doing my best in and out of the ring.’’

 

“Floyd Mayweather. He is an intelligent boxer and his abilities distinguish himself. He also works and trains very hard and puts in the gym time. He’s a man of his word and he invests 100 percent to each in his training camps and knows how to manage his fans as well. So many fans would like to see him win and just as many like to see him lose, but people just want to see him.’’

 

STEPHEN SMITH, 国际羽联没有. 1 Super Featherweight Contender

 

(On the significance of this matchup)

“All fights are important but this one is especially very important for me to win so that I can get back to where I was in the division.’’

 

(On finally getting a crack at the world title)

“I’ve waited a long time for this opportunity, but the timing couldn’t be better. I’m excited to get the opportunity to win the world title live on Sky Sports in the UK and on SHOWTIME in America.’’

 

(His views of the defending champion)

“Pedraza is a good fighter with a good amateur background and he’s not a world champion for nothing. He can box from either stance but I am confident of winning. I wouldn’t expect it to be an easy fight. It’s a world title fight, it’s meant to be tough. I’m preparing for the best of him; I don’t think he was at his best last time out against (Edner) 樱桃.

 

“He could have lost that fight, but he got the win and he’s going to look to show he’s better than that. We’ve covered all bases as far as sparring for whatever way he comes out, and I think I have the game plan to beat him.

 

“It’s not like he’s looked at me and thought ‘he’s an easy fight’ – he has no choice if he wants to keep his title. I think this fight has happened at the right time for me. It’s dragged out a bit but I’ve got a good head on my shoulders and I think that everything happens for a reason. My last outing was a career-best performance and I think that this has come at the right time.’’

 

(On his strategy)

“(训练者) Joe Gallagher is as meticulous as anyone when it comes to preparing to face someone. Pedraza’s a lot more aggressive from the orthodox stance, but we’ve studied everything and we’re really confident. The gym is still going strong; we were gutted for Scott Quigg as we know how much he gives in the gym for each fight. Spirits were down for a bit but big fights keep coming round, and now I have my fight.”

 

(On answering the critics who said he’d never fight for a title after his 2011 defeat to Selby)

“Because I had such a successful amateur career, I think that big things were expected of me. I had a bit of bad luck with injury, the loss to Selby set me back, but that was more from people writing me off. Lee is world champion now so there’s no disgrace in that, but people were saying after that fight that I wouldn’t fight for a world title. It can be a fickle sport at times but I’ve come back stronger and I think I will prove a lot of people wrong in America.’’

 

( his fighting brothers, 保罗, Liam and Callum)

“The family is doing great things, but it’s just something that we all set out to do when we started boxing so it’s not really come as a surprise to us. We work hard every day and we’ve hit the goals we’ve set ourselves; Liam is world champion, Paul has boxed for the world title twice, Callum is on the verge and I box for a world title soon. Four brothers fighting for world titles is a massive achievement but for us, it’s not enough — we want to win them. I think it’s very achievable for us, Paul is back tonight and he’s looking for another shot, so it’s realistic to say that three of us will box for world titles this year.’’

 

(On making his U.S. 登场)

“The training is the same but there’s more pressure and more media attention on this one as it’s the big one. I’ve never boxed in the states myself but I’ve been over there with Paul and Callum, and anyone who has brothers that box will tell you it is worse when they are fighting than when it’s your own fight. I know what to expect over there and I’m going to embrace it and soak it all up.”

Just to be fighting for this title is an honor for me and to challenge a great champion in Gary Russell, JR. is also an honor,” Hyland said from his training camp at Celtic Warrior Gym in Dublin. “To join great Irish boxing names is a dream come true for me. It will also mean the world to me to win this belt for my and family and, 最重要的, for my (晚了) dad, for all the hard work he put into me and my two brothers since I was eight years old. To look up and say, ‘Dad, we did it,’ will be the best feeling in the world.
Hyland has fought 10 times in the United States, including a 12-round loss to interim WBA featherweight champion Javier Fortuna in 2012. Hyland lived in Marlboro, New York for a few years when he was promoted by a company headed by then reality television star NicoleSnookiPolizzi.
I love fighting in the United States,” Hyland added. “There’s always a great atmosphere at fights there and the US is the real home of boxing. Snooki Boxing didn’t work out as planned, but they did a great job getting me the WBA title shot which was a great achievement in their first year in boxing. 不幸, things didn’t work out after that fight, but I do have great respect for them. I met friends for life from Marlboro who I consider family and they’ll be at my fight as always.

在精彩表演拳击锦标赛的共同特征, undefeated IBF Super Featherweight World Champion 何塞·佩德拉萨 will defend against mandatory challenger Stephen Smith.
拉塞尔JR. (26-1, 15 科斯) will be making the first defense of his featherweight world title that he earned after stopping defending champion Jhonny冈萨雷斯 in the fourth-round last March. He was set to defend last November, but was forced to withdraw due to a training injury. If he can get by the extremely motivated 海兰 (31-1, 15 科斯), 拉塞尔JR. is in line for big fights with fellow champions and top contenders such as 狮子座圣克鲁斯, 李谢肃方, 押尼珥Mares卡尔·弗兰普顿.
I’m excited about being back in the ring,” 拉塞尔说. “It’s been a year because of an injury, but I’m feeling great and more ready than ever. I’ll be prepared for anything. I’m looking forward to meeting Mr. Hyland on the 16th and I’m ready to prove I’m the best featherweight in the world.
This is a fantastic opportunity to fight for the WBC title, one of the belts that I’ve always wanted to hold,” 海兰德说. “It means the world to me to be fighting for this title against a real champion like Gary Russell Jr. I think he’s a great fighter who does everything well so I have to be at my best on fight night. But I know I can beat him and take that belt home to Ireland. I’m just a lad from Jobstown in Tallaght who works hard and loves the fight game. I’ve been trained all my life by my father, may God rest him, and to win a world title will make all of his hard work and effort worthwhile.
佩德拉萨 (21-0, 12 科斯) won his 130-pound world title last June when he dominated 安德烈·克里莫夫to capture the vacant belt, and he successfully defended it last October in an exciting battle againstEdner樱桃. Both bouts aired on SHOWTIME. Now he faces the mandatory challenger in 工匠(23-1, 13 科斯), 谁赢了 11 straight bouts and may present the toughest challenge of Pedraza’s burgeoning career.
I am in excellent condition, had an extraordinary training camp and am anxious to demonstrate my skills in the ring on April 16,” 佩德拉萨说. “I am truly looking forward to entertaining the fans in attendance and remaining undefeated as I defense my crown against Smith. I am determined to become the next big star out of Puerto Rico.
I’ve waited a long time for this opportunity, but the timing couldn’t be better,” 史密斯说. “I’m excited to get the opportunity to win the world title live on Sky Sports in the UK and on SHOWTIME in America. Pedraza is a quality fighter but I know I will do whatever is needed to become world champion on April 16 and I can’t wait.

This SHOWTIME doubleheader is a can’t-miss event,” 说娄DiBella, Presidentof DiBella Entertainment. “In Russell-Hyland, you have one of the most gifted fighters in all of boxing defending his title against a hungry and tough-as-nails Irishman in the biggest fight of his career. Pedraza is looking to make a statement against Smith, Britain’s number one contender, and to follow in the footsteps of past Puerto Rican superstars.
A speedy and supremely talented boxer, 拉塞尔小, was impressive in his fourth-round stoppage of the battle-tested Gonzalez last March. 该 2008 中美. Olympian had scored important victories overVyacheslav Gusev, Juan Ruiz, 和 Miguel Tamayo before losing a majority decision to Vasyl Lomachenko for the WBO 126-pound title in June 2014. 左撇子, 国会高地, MD。, was able to return to his winning ways with a unanimous decision over 克里斯托弗·马丁 that December prior to his coronation against Gonzalez, whom he dropped three times en route to capturing the title.
Leading into his last fight on 十月. 10, 在Lowell, 质量。, 爱尔兰 海兰 was dealing with heavy emotions following the death of his beloved father and longtime trainer, and the birth of his first son. The 32-year-old remained steadfast, fighting in memory of his father to stop David Martinez 在第八轮. It was his fourth consecutive victory since suffering his lone defeat, a close and competitive loss to the unbeaten 哈维尔财神 for the interim WBA World Featherweight Title in December 2012. 现在, presented with another world title opportunity, Hyland seeks to honor his father’s legacy by bringing the championship back home.
The switch-hitting former Puerto Rican Olympian 佩德拉萨 backed up his “狙击手” moniker against Klimov as he picked apart the Russian with superior speed and accuracy on his way to a world title. 佩德拉萨赢得了射击在冠军在他以前的回合前世界冠军挑战者了职业生涯最好的胜利 迈克尔·Farenas. The 26-year-old will have title unification on his mind if he can conquer his mandatory opponent on 四月 16.
Part of a fighting family, Smith’s brothers Callum, Liam and Paul all fight professionally at a high level and he hopes to join Liam as a fellow world champion on 四月 16. The 30-year-old has fought professionally since 2008 and his only blemish came against featherweight world champion Lee Selby in 2011. Smith earned his title shot with a sixth-round stoppage of Devis Boschiero 九月 2015 并且将他的U.S. debut at Foxwoods.
