Below is the schedule of SHOWTIME EXTREME premieres for the month of April:

  • Torsdag, April 7: Jorge Castro vs. John David Jackson I
  • Torsdag, April 14: Lucas Matthysse vs. John Molina Jr.
  • Torsdag, April 21: Diego Corrales vs. Jose Luis Castillo I
  • Torsdag, April 28: Paulie Ayala vs. Johnny Tapia I

 

Castro-Jackson I (December. 10, 1994, Castro KO 9) –Castro, thoroughly battered, bloodied and losing by a wide margin, rallies from the absolute brink of defeat to score three knockdowns in the ninth round to overcome Jackson in one of the most dramatic turnarounds ever.

 

Ayala-Tapia I (Juni 26, 1999, Ayala W 12) - I några av de hårdaste tvåvägshandlingen i Las Vegas historia, Southpaw Ayala ger Tapia sin första professionella förlust i 49 fights and captures the WBA bantamweight title by the scores of 115-114 och 116-113 två gånger. Game On: När boxarna tillkännagavs, Tapia walked across the ring and shoved Ayala causing a momentary skirmish.

 

Diego Corrales-Jose Luis Castillo I (Maj 7, 2005, Corrales TKO 10)After nine intense, back-and-forth rounds, Corrales åstadkommer det otänkbara, mirakulöst omgruppering från två knockdowns i 10th to stop Castillo in the same round (2:06) and etch his spot in boxing lore. Efter att ha lyckats slå räkningen (and lose a point for excessive spitting out of the mouthpiece), Corrales fick Castillo i repen och anslutits med en enorm höger hand. He continued to unload and Castillo got nailed with a bundle of vicious punches. Ögonblick senare, the ref stopped it.

 

Lucas Matthysse-John Molina Jr. (April 26, 2014, Matthysse KO 11)Abloody slugfest, in which both fighters were knocked down multiple times,became an instant classic. Matthysse who went down in the second and fifth rounds, came back with a late-fight onslaught to wear down and drop Molina in the eighth, 10th och 11th rundor. The tremendous brawl was as brutal as it was exciting and more compelling to witness than anyone could have imagined.
