“I love training with a young, hungry fighter like Jesús. We feed off of each other’s energy,” – Abel Ramos “We both have the same goal, which is to win on May 1… If I’m ever tired, I just look to Abel and know that I have to keep pushing,” – Jesús Ramos Welterweight Contender Abel Ramos & Rising Welterweight Star Jesús Ramos Preview Respective Showdowns on FOX Sports PBC Pay-Per-View Undercard Taking Place Saturday, מאי 1 from Dignity Health Sports Park in Carson, קליפורניה CASA GRANDE, AZ. (אפריל 14, 2021) – Welterweight contender Abel Ramos and his nephew, rising welterweight star Jesús Ramos, discussed their family’s bond through boxing while previewing their upcoming respective showdowns taking place Saturday, מאי 1 in FOX Sports PBC Pay-Per-View undercard action from Dignity Health Sports Park in Carson, קליפורניה.
Abel Ramos will step in to face former world champion Omar “Panterita” Figueroa in the co-main event of the pay-per-view, while Jesús Ramos will battle Javier “El Intocable” Molina in a welterweight attraction that kicks off the pay-per-view at 9 p.m. ET p.m / 6. PT.
Abel and Jesús are trained by Abel’s brother and Jesús’ father, Jesús Ramos Sr. in their hometown of Casa Grande, אריזונה. Both have spoken effusively about how training alongside a family member, and a fighter at a different point in their career, helps push them during camp.
“It’s great working with Abel,” said Jesús. “We both have the same goal, which is to win on May 1. If I’m ever tired, I just look to Abel and know that I have to keep pushing. I’m always able to ask him for advice and we help each other a lot.”
“It’s great training with a young, hungry fighter like Jesús,” said Abel. “We feed off of each other’s energy, and there’s lots of competitiveness when we train. I think that’s a good thing for both of us.”
Both Abel and Jesús have known since Jesús was little that this was a path the younger Ramos would eventually walk. For Jesús, he’s always used Abel as his inspiration to help get him where he is today.
“Deep down I always knew he’d get into boxing,” said Abel. “He was at all of my fights when he was younger and he always showed an interest in the sport.”
“Abel is the guy that I’ve looked up to since I was a little kid,” said Jesús. “I watched him box from a very young age and have learned a lot from him. Seeing him do it has always inspired me. He’s always taken tough fights and that’s inspiring too. He’s played a huge role in getting me to where I am today.”
While the 20-year-old Jesús is considered a young up-and-comer in the sport, who will be taking on his toughest test May 1 in Javier Molina, Abel believes that his nephew will show wisdom beyond his years in this fight.
“People think because Jesús is young that he doesn’t have experience, but that’s where they’re wrong,” said Abel. “At a very young age he displayed a lot of the abilities of a veteran fighter. He’s always had great patience, as well as the ability to think in the ring. His ring IQ is really high for his age.”
Ahead of the two fighting Ramos’ sharing the pay-per-view undercard on May 1, here is what Abel and Jesús had to say about their training camp, their respective showdowns and more:
ההבל RAMOS
“We’re less than three weeks away now, and every week I feel stronger and more ready for May 1. I’ve been sparring with a bunch of local fighters from Arizona who are helping prepare me. The hardest part is yet to come, but I’m just focusing on the game plan and executing the same program that’s worked in the past.
“It’s great to be a part of this event and show the fans the warrior mentality that us Mexican and Mexican-American fighters have. I can’t wait to put on a great show! It’s motivating for me to showcase our warrior style and it’s making me work my absolute hardest in order to give my best on fight night.
“I learned a lot from facing Yordenis Ugas. I went back and watched that fight, and I saw some things I can improve on. It serves as motivation, but it also showed me that I belong in there with the best in the division. I don’t feel like it was a total loss because I learned from it. But in this fight, I’m going to show all the improvements I’ve made since the Ugas fight.
“I watched Figueroa’s fight against Ugas. But styles make fights and I think my fight against Figueroa is going to be different than what Figueroa and Ugas had. I expect way more action when I face Omar.
“The majority of the game plan is preparing for Figueroa to come forward. We’re getting sparring partners that mimic what Figueroa does. Even when I’m working on the heavy bag, we’re keeping that in mind. I’m constantly imagining someone in front of me who I know is going to throw a lot of punches.
"בסופו של היום, I just want the win by any means necessary. I love that people are expecting a great fight from us and I just use that as motivation to prepare myself for what I know will be a grudge match.”
JESÚS RAMOS
“Everything is going how we planned for in this training camp. It’s a grind seven days a week. I’m just keeping up a good diet and focusing on strength and conditioning. We’re going 12 rounds in sparring and I’m feeling ready. I’m in great shape already and we still have two and a half weeks to go. I’ve been sparring with my uncle Abel, Jorge Cota and some other local fighters from Arizona.
“I think Molina has a lot of experience, which I know he’ll try to use against me. He’s a fighter with good speed. But when he fought Jose Pedraza, he struggled against a southpaw. אז, I might cause him some problems there, but I’m also bigger than Pedraza. I’m a legit welterweight.
“This fight being so close to Cinco De Mayo, this is a huge deal for me. There are going to be tons of events and festivities that week and to be a part of all of that is an honor. I just want to represent Mexico in the best way that I can.
“A victory over Molina would be a big statement. A lot of people are saying that he’s my toughest opponent to date. And beating him will get me fights with some even bigger names. But I have to beat Molina first.
“I’d love to get a knockout against Molina. He’s faced some tough fighters and nobody has been able to knock him out. But if I can’t get the knockout then I just want to dominate him and look good getting the win however I can.”

על מחנה האימונים האחרון שלו:
“It was another brutal camp in San Antonio with coach Rick Nunez. We got a lot of hard rounds in with some very tough sparring partners.

On his upcoming fight with Elias Araujo: “Araujo has a good record with a lot of experience, and he has double the number of fights that I’ve had. Since Araujo has only fought once in the U.S., אני יודע שהוא בא להילחם, so I’m expecting to go to war. This will be my toughest fight so far in my career, and I’m going to be ready for anything he brings to the ring.”
On making his 2021 debut on FOX: “I’m so grateful to be fighting once again FOX PBC Fight Night. It’s the big stage that gets me excited and I want nothing more than to put on a great performance for the fans. It doesn’t get bigger than FOX, so believe me when I say I’m ready to let my hands go.”

“I’m coming to make a statement in this fight. Araujo has never been stopped, so to end this fight early will be something special that no one has ever done. Fans can expect to see me throw a lot of power shots with bad intentions.”

האירוע מקודם על ידי מבצעי TGB. אניס נגד. Lipinets is promoted in association with D&אגרוף.
“Ennis vs. Lipinets is a fantastic fight in the welterweight division that pits an ascending force in Ennis against a former world champion in Lipinets,אמר טום בראון, נשיא מבצעי TGB. “It’s a very competitive fight that presents a fascinating clash of styles and will have big implications on the future of the 147-pound division. Another sensational young welterweight will look for a career best win in the co-feature, as Eimantas Stanionis takes on his toughest test to date in the veteran Thomas Dulorme. Adding in 115-pound champion Jerwin Ancajas seeking an impressive ninth title defense against Mexico’s Jonathan Rodríguez, and all the ingredients are in place for an action-packed night on SHOWTIME April 10.”
Ennis (26-0, 24 קוס) is the latest in the pantheon of outstanding Philadelphia fighters, combining sublime boxing skills with natural power in both hands. After numerous appearances onShoBox: הדור החדש, the 23-year-old Ennis has graduated to headlining his first SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast. Heading into his last bout against Chris van Heerden, Ennis was riding a streak of 16 consecutive knockouts. That streak ended when the fight was stopped after the first round due to an accidental clash of heads that opened a severe cut on the forehead of Van Heerden.
“I’m excited to be back April 10,” said Ennis. “This is the type of fight I’ve been waiting for. I can’t wait to perform and put on a beautiful show. Y’all will see something special out of me come fight night. I’m excited to be the main event. It’s time for me to shine!"
ליפינטס בן ה -31 (16-1-1, 12 קוס) established himself as a force at 140 pounds when he won the IBF world title with a victory over Akihiro Kondo in 2017. He lost the title to four-division world champion Mikey Garcia in 2018 and then moved up to welterweight in 2019. He served notice that he would be a contender at welterweight when he scored an impressive stoppage victory over two-division champion Lamont Peterson in 2019. יליד קזחסטן ומייצג את רוסיה, ליפינט גר כיום בוודלנד הילס, California and is trained by renowned trainer Joe Goossen. Lipinets is coming off a hard-fought majority draw against undefeated Custio Clayton in October 2020.
“Training is grueling and I’m working hard with Joe Goossen to be at my best on fight night,אמר ליפינט. “We have a tough, young fighter in Ennis who thinks I’m a stepping stone for him. But sometimes stepping stones trip you up, and I’ll be doing my best to trip him up on April 10. I’m just doing my best to get prepared for what I expect to be a dog fight. Every fan that knows boxing knows that this is going to be a real war and worth tuning in for. I expect we’ll be fighting in a phone booth at times, but I also expect him to try to use his reach and fight me at a distance at times. But no matter what he does, I’ll be ready for him.”
Stanionis (12-0, 9 קוס) has put together a string of impressive victories as he has climbed up the ranks from prospect to contender. He enters the match against Dulorme with four consecutive knockout victories. The 26-year-old from Lithuania, who now lives and trains in California, looked impressive as he picked up three solid victories in 2019, beating Samuel Figueroa via unanimous decision and scoring early stoppages against Julio Cesar Sanchez and Evincii Dixon. The undefeated welterweight has put the division on notice with back-to-back dominating main event performances in November and December 2020, when he notched ninth-round knockouts over Justin DeLoach and Janer Gonzalez respectively.
“This is my first time fighting on SHOWTIME and it feels like a dream come true,” said Stanionis. “Dulorme is experienced and has been a good fighter for a long time. על נייר, this is my toughest fight, אבל אני מוכן. I’ll be prepared for whatever he brings. With our styles, זה הולך להיות מלחמה. I’m ready to fight right now. Somebody is going down and no matter what happens, the fans are going to win.”
The 31-year-old Dulorme (25-4-1, 16 קוס) has amassed a solid resume at 140 ו 147 pounds during his career, climbing into the ring with world champions Yordenis Ugas, Jessie Vargas and Terence Crawford. Born in Marigot, Guadeloupe but fighting out of and representing Carolina, פורטו ריקו, Dulorme rebounded from a loss to Crawford for a 140-pound title by scoring back-to-back knockouts, followed by a narrow decision loss to top welterweight Yordenis Ugas. The world title challenger is coming off a unanimous decision loss to Jamal James in his last fight in August.
“I’m very excited for this fight on April 10,” said Dulorme. “I came up short in my last fight for the title, but a win against Stanionis will put me right back into the position I want. He’s young and strong, but I have a lot more experience and I will show it in the ring and it will lead me to victory.”
Representing the Philippines, אנקחס (32-1-2, 22 קוס) was only 15 years old when he was spotted by boxing legend Manny Pacquiao. The young fighter blossomed with Pacquiao’s guidance, becoming the first world champion under Pacquiao’s promotional banner when he outpointed McJoe Arroyo for the IBF World Junior Bantamweight title in September 2016. The 29-year-old southpaw hasn’t lost since and will be making the ninth defense of his title when he faces Rodríguez. In his most recent outing in December, Ancajas stopped Miguel Gonzalez in six rounds.
“I am really looking forward to returning to the ring on April 10 for my first fight on SHOWTIME,” said Ancajas. “Everybody knows the great rivalry between the Philippines and Mexico, and I look forward to adding another explosive fight to that history. Fight fans know where all the action fights are right now, and that’s the 115-pound division. I’m thankful for this opportunity and I plan to make the most of it.”
Mexico’s Rodríguez (22-1, 16 קוס) was given the nickname “Titan” because of his prodigious power. Since suffering a disputed split-decision loss to Jose Martin Estrada Garcia in March 2018, the 25-year-old has won six straight, including a first-round knockout victory over Julian Yedras last December. He will be making his U.S. debut against Ancajas.
“This is the opportunity of a lifetime for me,” said Rodríguez. “When I started boxing, it was my dream to fight for the world title and win it. באפריל 10, all of my dreams and hard work will come true when I hear ‘and the new IBF champion of the world.’”

“I rate my performance pretty good but I know I could have done better,” said Benavidez, who extended his perfect record to 24-0. “Ronald Ellis is a tough competitor. I just hope the fans like what they saw. I threw a lot of combinations, punches in bunches. There were a lot of times I thought Ellis was going to quit but he didn’t. Hats off to him, הוא בחור קשוח. It was a little later than I wanted but a stoppage is still a stoppage. I hope the fans got a good show tonight.”

I could have moved a little bit more and not taken so many shots to the head. Hats off to him. He did what he had to do. הוא מעולם לא פגע בי, that’s the funny thing. I took a lot of shots but he didn’t damage me or have me super hurt. I never thought about quitting.”

Benavidez reflected on Hagler’s passing after the fight: “I had met Marvin once before and he was a great champion. Someone told me he fought the first fight on SHOWTIME.

“I’m not happy about the style of the fight but I am satisfied I took the victory home and we’ve come to the No. 1 spot in the WBA,"אמר קרוז. “I didn’t know what was going to happen [as far as the judges]. We forced the fight at all times and it would have been very impossible for the judges to do something to me when I was the one pushing the fight.”
Throughout the 36-minute affair, Cruz constantly applied pressure against his opponent which led to Romero, the more seasoned professional, to hold excessively in an attempt to stall the pressure. Despite being warned frequently by referee Harvey Dock, the 24-year-old Romero was never penalized. During the rough-and-tumble contest, עם זאת, Cruz was docked a point in the sixth round for a low blow.
“He was a fighter who didn’t want to exchange punches,” Cruz added, in reference to the persistent clinching. “I was very fed up with the clinches—there was never a warning toward him. I did my best out there. Not the best way I wanted to do it but thank God we won the fight and we’re taking the victory home.”

He’s supposed to the be the ‘Pit Bull’ and I went the distance. You have to take the opportunities when they are presented and I wish I would have had more time to get ready for this fight.”

Gausha, 33, did not land a single power punch in the opening round but worked well behind the jab, winning the round on two of the judges’ scorecards. As the second round neared completion, Gausha beautifully countered a lunging left hand from the southpaw Clark which sent the 26-year-old to the canvas for the first time in his professional career. Clark beat the count but moments later was met by a barrage of unanswered punches in the neutral corner. Referee Arthur Mercante jumped in and called a halt to the bout at 2:44 של הסיבוב השני.
“I knew Jamontay was a tough kid, I’ve been watching him since Cleveland so I knew about him already,” said Gausha. “I felt like I had a chance to knock him out but I didn’t know how the fight would play out. But I feel I did good, executed the game plan. My coaches had been studying film and we executed.
“I just took my time,” added Gausha. “I was setting traps. I knew he would be open eventually, but I had to be cautious too because he’s a rangy guy, has a good left hand. But I knew there were holes in his game and we executed and when the opportunity presented itself, we landed that big right hand.”
With his emphatic stoppage win, the 2012 Olympian emerges as a contender for a title shot in the super welterweight division. In his first and only world title shot in 2017, Gausha dropped a unanimous decision to current super welterweight world champion Erislandy Lara.
“I know I made a statement tonight,” added Gausha. “I put the division on notice. I’m locked and loaded and I’m ready. I want to be a world champion so I’m looking to fight whoever I need to fight to get to the belts.”

הנה מה שהיה למשתתפי מסיבת העיתונאים לומר ביום חמישי:
ADRIEN ברונר
“I’ve had so many great performances and I’m looking forward to another great performance Saturday night. אני יודע שהוא בא להילחם, he’s undefeated and he’s hungry. Anybody who fights a name like Adrien Broner is going to always train to their best ability so I’m not looking at this as a fight where I just go in and destroy this guy. I’m just going to go to do what I have to do to get the victory – look good inside and outside the ring.
“I feel like I’m going to be a world champion again, שוב, שוב ושוב. Until I’m really done with boxing. כן, I took two years off from boxing, retired and let my body heal and rest. I just feel like I’ve got what it takes to win more championships in different weight classes so that’s what I’m going to do.
"בסופו של היום, he’s here because of me and everybody in this room is here because of me, so that’s special. במוצאי שבת, the only thing that’s going to be special is this whooping I’m giving out. He’ll know then. Santiago hasn’t been punched yet. When you punch somebody, they talk different. He ain’t going to be talking like that after Saturday.
“I went through a lot of things, בכנות. יום אחד, I just woke and said, ‘I’m done.’ In order to change, you’ve got to make change or you’ll steady get caught up doing the same thing. I cut a lot of stuff, I stopped doing a lot of stuff and I got myself together. It was a long road to get to where I’m at today and now I’m here.
"לְהַקְשִׁיב, if you got a belt, just hold on to it. I’m coming to sweep it all up; WBA, WBO, WBC, IBF. I’m coming to get them all.
“Just expect a hell of a show. אני יודע שהוא בא להילחם, He’s from Puerto Rico, הם באים להילחם. But I didn’t just do all this training to go into the ring and not fight. So he’s got to know that if he comes to a war, he’s going to be in a war too. He better be coming with a lot of equipment because I’ve got a lot of equipment coming with me. I’m just ready to put it all on the line. I don’t know how he feels, but I’m willing to die in the ring. I’m willing to put my life on the line. I don’t know how far he’s willing to go. He might start thinking about his kids, grandkids, aunts, nieces, אני לא יודע.
“From the time I was six years old, I never took a break from boxing. So that’s what I did. עכשיו, I’m missing boxing again, I’m back in it and we’re back to it on Saturday night.
“It’s been a hell of a training camp. Maybe one of the toughest because I had to get back in rhythm, coming back and losing all that weight and working as hard as I do. I didn’t want an easy fight so I picked a guy like Jovanie Santiago because I know he’s going to push me and bring the best out of me. That’s what I know about him. הוא לוחם טוב, an undefeated fighter, and he’s not here to lose.
“I know a lot of people don’t know these guys, but guys like Jovanie can be very dangerous because a lot of people don’t know him. I know better, he’s coming to fight, he’s a good fighter and undefeated, so I have to stay on my A-game. I’m going in to get the victory – whatever presents itself. If the knockout presents itself, אני לוקח את זה. You don’t get paid for overtime but I’m definitely coming to get my win.
“The overall goal is to get past this fight first. באגרוף, you can’t look past no opponent. I don’t care how everything looks on paper. באגרוף, you’re only one punch away from a knockout and that’s on both ends. So what I’ve got to do is go in, get my victory, get my hands raised first, and then we’re gonna go to the drawing board. So the plan for me is to get my victory Saturday night.
“Everything happens for a reason and I think this is going to be a great start. Like I said before, I didn’t want no easy out. I could have taken a pushover, but I’m not doing that. I love competition. I want somebody to test me, bring the best out of me, and that’s why I picked Jovanie Santiago. Saturday night is going to be a great fight.”
JOVANIE SANTIAGO
“This is a great opportunity for me. במוצאי שבת, I’m going to show who I am. I’m going to show Adrien Broner that I’m ready to fight.
“Whatever Broner brings to the table, I’m going to beat him on Saturday night. אני מוכן למאבק הזה. At this point, Broner might think he has an easy fight, but he’s in the wrong. אני כאן כדי להילחם, I’m here to win. אנחנו מוכנים.
“This Saturday night is going to be a war and it’s going to be a victory for Puerto Rico. I’m ready to die in the line like we say in Puerto Rico.
“I know this is the biggest fight of my career. He’s a big name and I’m going to try and win for Puerto Rico. Winning this fight would be the best thing that’s happened in my career and my name would get a lot bigger in the boxing world.
“I don’t have anything to lose. Adrien Broner has everything to lose Saturday night so he better bring his A-game against me. A win for me would catapult me into a world title shot.
“AB always puts on a show so on Saturday I have to be ready to put on my own show against AB. He is a good champion but I’ve trained really hard in the gym and I’m going to show it on Saturday.
“I think Adrien Broner thinks that I’m an easy fight for him, but he’s wrong about that. I think Broner is going to let go of his hands because he sees me as a weak opponent. He’s definitely overlooking me.
“Whatever Broner brings to the table, I’m going to be ready for it. If he moves, I’m going to move with him. If he wants to brawl, I’m going to brawl. Whatever he does, I’m going to do it better than he does.”
דומיניק בריזיל
“It’s true you’re only as good as your last fight, but at the same time I feel like this is my coming out party. It feels like my pro debut. I’ve been off for a long time and had a great training camp so I’m ready for Saturday night.
“After my last fight against (דאונטיי) Wilder I took a few days to digest the loss and then was back in the gym about 10 days later. I didn’t want to harp on it or let it bother me. There wasn’t really a sense of urgency, but I knew there were going to be changes and I knew they had to be done in the next couple of weeks. I focused on my eating and my training and, כמובן, the biggest change of all was my trainer change from Virgil Hunter to Abel Sanchez.
“Switching to Abel and training up in Big Bear has been huge and something I wish I would have done years ago. Abel actually has something written on the wall that says, ‘Imagine what if.’ And I imagine ‘what if’ every night. כמו שאמרתי, I wish I would have done this a year ago, but my conditioning and my confidence are at an all-time high.
“Some people might have thought I would have wanted to get back in there with a pushover, but I’ve always wanted to fight the top guys. I saw the Otto Wallin fight and the performance he gave against Tyson Fury and then Travis Kauffman. When the name was brought to my attention, I jumped all over it. I knew that the boxing world would respect the fight against myself and Otto.
“I don’t think Otto’s been in there with a big, חזק, athletic guy like myself. Mike Tyson said it best: ‘Everyone’s got a game plan until you get punched in the mouth.’”
OTTO WALLIN
“Everybody wants to ask about my fight with Tyson Fury and they forget that I’ve done a lot more than that. But it was a great performance and I understand that most people hadn’t seen me fight before, it was a great fight and it was better than what most people thought. I’m kind of over that now. I want to move forward. It’s nice to move forward. It’s nice to be on SHOWTIME fighting with Breazeale, who has a good name. So hopefully with this fight, I beat him and move on so people can see I’m able to beat good guys.
“I think I’m more well-rounded than Breazeale. כמו כן, you can’t forget that I’m actually 6’ 6”, 240, so I’m not that small. I know a lot of people look at me like I’m smaller but I’m not that small. עם זאת נאמר, אני יותר חכם, got a great team, we’ve had a great camp and I’m really good too. I’m faster than Dominic, I have better footwork, better defense, and better defense. So I’ve got to bring all of that in there, do what I’m good at and I’ll be fine.
“I think a win will hopefully help me move past Fury. But also it will put my name up there, to solidify my spot there. I don’t think this fight will get me a title shot but it will be a good shot on the way.
“I think you can expect a good fight, two good fighters. Dominic probably feels he has a point to prove and probably going to come out and be aggressive and try to come after me. I’m sure I won’t have to look for him and I’m ready for that. People can expect an exciting fight and a good night of boxing.
“Dominic is an aggressive guy so I have to be smart. I have to be who I am and set him up and I think I will be able to do that.
“I don’t feel a lot of pressure. I just have to be myself and I have to do what I do, what I’m good at. This is a big opportunity for me so I try to be positive. I waited a long time to get to this level, I’m finally here and I’m not going back.”
רוברט הפסחא, JR.
“I’ve been in some brawls, but I really haven’t ever shown my true boxing abilities. אני, Mike Stafford and my father (רוברט פסחא, האב) just worked on boxing and being myself.
“During COVID it really set me down and being off for all that time and never really knowing when I would get that call to get back in the ring. So I really had to focus up and I had to be ready whenever I was given that phone call. It motivated me. יותר, I had to look over my son and make sure he was alright. So it really put a different drive in me. This pandemic really set everything back, but we’re more than ready.
“140 is definitely the place for me to be right now. That’s the future. We’re worried about present right and capturing this title at 140.
“I’m just worried about me and showing my skills and everything we’ve worked on in training and this camp.”
RYAN MARTIN
“We fought in the amateurs and he beat me so there’s definitely a little chip on my shoulder there. I want to get back at him and let him know that I’m not a 16-year-old kid anymore.
“This fight is going to put me right back up there to be in a position to fight any of the champions or top contenders in the division. This fight is definitely going to steal the show.
“I’m focused. My mind is clear. This fight right here gets me excited. We’re two Ohio fighters with history – I’ve got a chip on my shoulder. It’s going to be an action-packed fight and I’m going to bring it. I’m not really surprised that Easter says he doesn’t see much difficulty in fighting me. I kind of expected him to say that. Easter is Easter.
“It’s going to be very important that I let my hands go against Easter. I feel that this fight is going to have so much action. I’m clear minded. אני מוכן. במוצאי שבת, we’re going to get in there and let it fly.
“Words can’t explain how excited and anxious I am for this, לומר לך את האמת. I’m just so ready for Saturday night. I’m ready to get the weigh-in over with, get under the lights on Saturday night and put on a show. It’s going to be an entertaining fight. A lot of people are saying a lot of things about me based on the Josh Taylor fight. אז, it’s kind of like I’m battling two things.
“Easter just needs to come with it on Saturday night. I always knew this fight with Robert Easter was going to happen. I don’t know why, but I just always knew that we would meet again in the ring. I think it’s because we were both in Ohio – he was in Toledo and I was in Cleveland – and I just always thought I’d get this fight. I just didn’t think it would happen like this in a bubble.”

"אין שום סיכוי שגבאלו היה יכול לנצח בקרב הזה,אמר מרקס. "בתרחיש הגרוע ביותר, יכולת לתת לו שלושה סיבובים. לא נתתי לו שום סיבוב. "
"אני מאוד שמח ומבורך לזכות בחגורה הזו,"אמר גאבלו בן ה -24. “תמיד התקדמתי ושולטתי בקצב, אז חשבתי שזה מאבק צמוד שכל אחד מאיתנו יכול היה לנצח.

אלוף ביניים ללא הפסד WBA במשקל נוצה סופר, קולברט נלחם בארבולדה הקשה באירוע המרכזי בשידור חי ב- SHOWTIME® בשבת קרובה, דצמבר 12
NEW YORK – דצמבר 8, 2020 – אלוף ביניים במשקל נוצה של ה- WBA ללא הפסקה כריס "פרייטיים" קולבר ייראה להצהיר באירוע המרכזי הראשון שלו בטלוויזיה, כשהוא מתמודד עם מכות קשות חיימה ארבולדה בשידור חי ב- SHOWTIME בשבת הקרובה, דצמבר 12 ב 9 p.m. ET p.m / 6. PT in an event presented by Premier Boxing Champions from Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, קונטיקט.
“I always knew I was going to get here,אמר קולבר. “It’s all God’s plan. This is just going to be another day for me and I’ll show everyone why I’m one of the best 130-pounders in the world.”
The 24-year-old Colbert has shot up the rankings of the 130-pound weight class and believes that a victory on Saturday night will lead to bigger opportunities in the jam-packed division.
“This is one of the most stacked divisions in boxing and I love competing in it,אמר קולבר. “It’s great to be getting noticed in a division that has this much talent, and hopefully it’ll lead to me getting the big fights that I need. I don’t feel like there’s any certain fighter I’m targeting, but Gervonta Davis, Leo Santa Cruz and Jamel Herring would all be great fights for me. Beating them would help me become ‘the guy’ in the division.”
Colbert’s rise continued in his last fight, as he scored a 10ה-round knockdown against former champion Jezreel Corrales on his way to a decision win while showing an impressive array of skills against a fighter determined to slow the action through holding and other veteran tricks.
“Against Corrales I learned not to rush,אמר קולבר. “It’s not a sprint, it’s a marathon. I can’t just go rush in there and expect everyone to get knocked out. I had to take my time, do what I do best and stick to my game plan.”
בארבולדה בת ה -26, בפני קולבר תועמד עוד מתמודד עולה במשקל 130 קילו עם כוונתו להתגבש בקרב האליטה בחטיבה.. ארבולדה ניצח בחמישה משש הקרבות האחרונים שלו בהפסקה ולאחרונה הוריד את ג'ייסון ולז בדרך לניצחון הכרעה בפברואר ב- SHOWTIME.
"בוא דצמבר 12, אני מוכן לכל מה שהוא מביא,אמר קולבר. "אני מצפה שהוא יביא לחץ ו'ינסה 'לעייף אותי כי זה הסיכוי היחיד שיש לו. הוא לא יכול לתפוס אותי מחוץ לתיבת הדואר. זה לא קורה. אבל אני אוהב לדפוק פנימה ואני מוכן לכל מה שהוא יעשה. אני מקווה שהוא לא ינהל או יכניס אותי כי אשמח לקבל את הנוקאאוט ולהוציא אותו משם מוקדם. "
יליד ברוקלין, קולברט, המשיך לעבוד עם מאמנו הוותיק אורליאנו סוסה בעיר הולדתו דרך קשיי המגפה.. קשיים אלה הובילו לקולברט להתפזר עם משקל וולט גדול יותר ומשקולות סופר ברזל במחנה, שקולבר מאמין שיכול לעזור לו עם הכוח שארבולדה תביא לקרב.
"מחנה האימונים עבר נהדר ברובו,אמר קולבר. "זה פשוט היה קצת קשה למצוא שותפים דלילים. אבל בגלל שקשה היה למצוא לוחמים במשקל שלי, למעשה התדלברתי איתם 147 ולוחמים במשקל 154 קילו. אני באמת אוהב את זה כי זה מכין אותי טוב יותר, ומי יגיד שלארבולדה לא יהיה כוח כמוהם? אני במשקל עכשיו, למרות ש, ומוכן להעלות הופעה ב -12 בדצמבר. "

PT in an event presented by Premier Boxing Champions from Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, קונטיקט.
"פלויד עזר לי מאוד בזמן שחזרתי ללאס וגאס,אמר היצ'ינס. "יש לי כבר את היסודות כלוחם, אבל הוא הראה לי דברים קטנים פה ושם ואימונים שלקחתי איתי הביתה בזמן שאני מתאמן לקרב הזה. אני לא ביישן מהיכולת שלי כלוחמת, כי אני באמת מאמין שאני הלוחם הכי טוב במשחק, אז אלה סוג הקרבות שאני צריך על מנת להראות לעולם מיהו ריצ'רדסון היצ'ינס.
"גרבונטה שימשה גם במחנות הלחימה בעבר, והוא סוג האדם שאתה צריך. הוא דוחף אותך ללכת קשה יותר. אנחנו הולכים ראש בראש בניסיון להתעלות זה על זה, וזה סוג התחרות הדרוש בכדי להיות באמת הטובים ביותר. "
למרות אימונים לאורך המגפה, היצ'ינס הצליח להישאר במשימה ובמסלול לאורך כל מחנהו שהחל בלאס וגאס לפני שהסתיים במולדתו ברוקלין בהדרכתו של מאמנו הראשי לני ווילסון..
"העניין בי הוא, אני מרוכז ולא משנה מה,אמר היצ'ינס. "אני לא ממריא 'אחרי הקרבות שלי. אני נשאר בכושר כל השנה; אני לא צריך להתכונן מבחינת התניה או להחזיר את גופי לכושר כי זו התפקיד שלי. אני לוקח את העבודה שלי ברצינות רבה. המשמעת שהייתה לפלויד לאורך כל הקריירה שלו היא אותה משמעת שיש לי. צפיתי באלילים שלי ולקחתי מהם דברים כדי שאציב את עצמי במצב של ניצחון.
"אני לא חושב שהמגפה או החגים בהכרח שינו את האימונים שלי. עדיין יש לי גישה לחדר הכושר שלי. אין שום דבר שיעמוד בדרכי להיות נהדר. המגיפה לא מאטה אותי, זה רק עוד מחסום כדי לבדוק את המסירות שלי לספורט. "
היצ'ינס בן ה -23 ייצג את האיטי ב 2016 המשחקים האולימפיים וישוב לזירה לאחר הופעת הבכורה שלו ב 2020 עם ניצחון הכרעה של 10 סיבובים על ניקולס דלומבה בפברואר. היה זה הניצחון השני של היצ'ינס בסיבוב ההחלטה לאחר קרבו הקודם ראה אותו קווין ג'ונסון הכי טוב אחריו 10 סבבים בנובמבר 2019.
"לעתים קרובות אני חושב על המאבק שלי נגד קווין ג'ונסון, הוא לוחם קשוח והוא זה שאני יכול לומר בביטחון שהוציא ממני את המיטב,אמר היצ'ינס. "אלה הקרבות שגורמים לי להסתכל אחורה ולצפות מקרוב בדברים שאני צריך לעבוד עליהם. המאבק הזה גם הראה לי שאסור להתעלם מאף אחד, אז נכנס למאבק הזה נגד מנדז, אני לא משקיף עליו. "
מנדז מציג את היריב המושלם ביותר לקריירה הצעירה של היצ'ינס. האלוף לשעבר בן ה -34 נלחם לאחרונה בחואן הרלדס ובאנתוני פיטרסון כדי להגרות 2019, וקלע ניצחונות על אדי רמירז ואיבן רדקח לפני כן. עבור היצ'ינס, הרזומה החזק של יריבו הוא דבר שהוא מתענג עליו כמקל מדידה להתקדמותו.
"הוא ותיק, הוא היה שם עם הרבה בחורים קשוחים והוא אלוף העולם לשעבר, אז ברור שיש לו מערך מיומנויות שאני חושב שאני צריך להתמודד איתו בשלב הזה בקריירה שלי,אמר היצ'ינס. "אני צריך את הקרבות הגדולים האלה. הוא מבוגר עכשיו, אבל אני מרגיש שהוא עדיין לא יכול היה לגעת במיומנות שלי. תפקידי להוכיח זאת.
"אני יודע שזה לא יהיה מאבק קל, אבל אני אהיה מוכן לכל מה שהוא יביא. המוטיבציה שלי היא להיות יותר מהרגיל. אני אמלא את המטרות שלי כאשר כל זה נאמר ונעשה, ובכנות, אני רק מחכה שהקרב הזה יגיע כדי שאוכל להראות את זה. בין אם זה מנדז, או מי שלא יהיה, ההרשעה שיש לי ואיך אני מרגיש עם עצמי חזקה יותר מכל העומד מולי בטבעת ההיא.

Spence was joined during the event by his longtime trainerדריק ג'יימס, while Garcia was accompanied by his father and trainerאנג'ל גרסיה.
כרטיסים לאירוע בשידור חי, המקודם על ידי מבצעי TGB, Man Down Promotions and DSG Promotions, על מכירת החברה, and can be purchased at SeatGeek.com, the Official Ticketing Provider of AT&T Stadium.
AT&T Stadium, which has hosted NFL fans during the 2020 Dallas Cowboys season, will be following guidelines from the CDC with protocols regarding COVID-19 safeguards and cleaning procedures. All fans attending the event will be required to wear a mask. Tickets will be distributed in seat blocks known as “pods” to maintain distance between groups who are not known to one another.

Here is what the press conference participants had to say Tuesday:
ארול ספנס JR.
“I feel blessed and ready to go. I feel like I’m 100% מבחינה פיזית. We’ve been training hard and staying focused. I can’t wait to give my hometown fans something to cheer for when I defend my title against a great opponent.
“I didn’t want any tune-up fights. I wanted someone who is tough and who could push me to the limit, so I can get back to being Errol Spence Jr. I’m going to give a great performance and hear ‘and still’ בדצמבר 5.
“I picked Danny Garcia so that I could rise to the occasion. I’m still the top dog in the division. Fighting Danny will show how great a fighter I am.
“Danny’s dad gets me hyped up talking about his son coming forward, throwing a lot of punches and taking the belts from me. So I’ll be ready for whatever Danny brings to the ring. I’m not going to get into any head games like with Shawn Porter. I fought Shawn’s game and beat him at his own game. I know Angel wants me to stand there and brawl with Danny, but I’m going to do what I have to do to win the fight.
“It’s up to me to make a big splash coming back from my car accident. Lesser opponents were for before I became champion. I finally got to the top, where I can fight the big names, so I’m not going backward. These are the guys I’ve wanted to fight forever.
“I definitely learn more from Danny’s wins. He has a lot of great wins. You learn a lot from all different kinds of fights. I’m a student of the game and a fan of the sport. All I do anyway is watch boxing. So I’m very familiar with Danny’s wins and losses.
“The accident just made me hungrier and even more focused. I have the same hunger now that I had before I won the title. I’m coming into camp much lighter and it’s helping me have an even better camp.
“I’m the champ, ובסופו של היום, I can just fight. When it gets down to the wire, I know how to dig down deep and come out on top.
“It means everything to be fighting at home, especially with everyone going through the pandemic. I just want everyone who comes out to be safe and follow the protocols, and we’ll make it a great night.”
דני GARCIA
“Camp has been going great. My weight is good and I feel like we’re ahead of schedule. Now we’re just taking it one day at a time. I’m excited to be in this position to fight for the title again.
“בדצמבר 5, no stone will be unturned. We’re going to give it 110% and take these titles from him in his hometown.
“I’ve been an underdog my whole career. I’m used to playing that role. I just have to go in there and be myself. I have to believe in myself 100% and fight round by round. I’m going to show what a true champion is made of.
“After the Garcia and Porter fights, I saw some holes in his game and I knew it would be a good opportunity to become champion again. These type of fights bring out the best in Danny Garcia. They give me the extra motivation that I need and that’s why I wanted it.
“I thought Spence was the bigger and better man against Mikey Garcia. Mikey has great skills, but Errol had size and let his hands go. It made Mikey freeze, so he didn’t take any risks. He did land some good counterpunches, and those are the kind of things that I’m taking into consideration during this camp.
“My job is to fight. I can’t go in there and worry about judges. They’re going to do what they do. My job is to put in the work in the gym so that I’m ready on fight night. I have to go in there and win rounds and win the fight.
“I know that I’m a great fighter. I’ve been in these type of fights before. I know what I’m made of. As long as I’m mentally and physically at my best, nobody can beat me. I’m a dangerous man when I have this focus.
“We’re taking this fight like Errol is 100%. We’re not banking on anything hindering him. We’re taking this as seriously as possible. We wanted this fight a long time ago, but we just had to stay focused. Now the fight is finally here and I feel like we’re going to have a great performance.
“I believe that I do everything great. I can bang inside and box. That’s why I’m a three-time world champion. I’ve faced every style imaginable and I’ve come out on top.”
דריק ג'יימס, המאמן של ספנס
“Training camp has been really good. We’ve been putting in the hard work since March. Everything is coming together leading up to December 5. We took our time and it was a gradual process getting to this point. He was already in shape by the time this camp started so we had a great head start.
“Even when Errol was getting back into his rhythm, he was still looking good. But you could see the improvement day after day as he got more comfortable being back. Everyone will see on December 5 who Errol Spence Jr. really is.
“It’s great to be able to fight at home against a fighter like Danny. Putting on a great performance will build Errol’s legend and his stock will continue to rise. Errol has always been able to handle fighting in front of his hometown fans. We love everything that the city brings us and we feed off that energy in the ring.”
ANGEL GARCIA, Garcia’s Father & מאמן
“Everything has been perfect in camp. You can see how good he’s looking right now. Danny would be ready to go tomorrow if we had to. It’s going to be a great night for me and Danny. Not taking anything from anybody, but we’re coming to take those titles.
“I never look at opponent’s tapes from past fights. We’re not going to learn anything from that. When I train Danny, I focus on Danny. All I know is how to make Danny better. We’re going to dictate the fight and be on top of Errol. We’re not going to fight like Mikey Garcia did and run all night.
“הפעם, we’re not going to leave it in the judges’ ידיים. We chose to go fight him in Dallas. Danny made that call. בסופו של היום, Danny just has to go in there and do his thing.”
TOM BROWN, נשיא מבצעי TGB
“ארול ספנס Jr. לעומת. Danny Garcia is one of the most intriguing fights of this year and it is a fight that will determine who is the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world.
“This will be a tremendous night of boxing and it will be at the home of the best pro sports franchise in the world, AT&T Stadium. This is the perfect host for a matchup with two fighters in their prime, both ready to put their legacies on the line.
“Spence is one of the most talked about fighters in the sport. Many consider him to be the best fighter in the world, and with good reason. He wants to be challenged and this is the type of fight that elevates our sport.
“Danny Garcia is a throwback fighter. He’s one of the most skilled and battle tested fighters in our sport. What he did at 140 קילו, before moving up, was simply amazing. Putting these two together will bring back memories of great welterweight battles of the past.”
