Abel dan Jesús dilatih oleh saudara laki-laki Abel dan ayah Jesús, Jesus Ramos Sr. di kampung halaman mereka di Casa Grande, Arizona. Keduanya telah berbicara secara efektif tentang bagaimana berlatih bersama anggota keluarga, dan seorang pejuang di titik berbeda dalam karir mereka, membantu mendorong mereka selama kemah.
“Senang bekerja dengan Abel,Kata Jesús. “Kami berdua memiliki tujuan yang sama, yang dimenangkan pada bulan Mei 1. Jika saya pernah lelah, Saya hanya melihat ke Abel dan tahu bahwa saya harus terus berusaha. Saya selalu bisa meminta nasihat darinya dan kami banyak membantu satu sama lain. "
“Ini pelatihan yang bagus dengan anak-anak, pejuang lapar seperti Jesús,Kata Abel. “Kami saling memberi energi satu sama lain, dan ada banyak daya saing saat kami berlatih. Saya pikir itu hal yang baik bagi kita berdua. "
Baik Abel dan Jesús sejak Jesús masih kecil bahwa ini adalah jalan yang nantinya akan dilalui oleh Ramos yang lebih muda.. Untuk Jesús, dia selalu menggunakan Abel sebagai inspirasinya untuk membantunya berada di tempat sekarang ini.
Jauh di lubuk hati saya selalu tahu dia akan terjun ke tinju,Kata Abel. "Dia berada di semua pertarungan saya ketika dia masih muda dan dia selalu menunjukkan minat pada olahraga."
“Abel adalah pria yang saya hormati sejak saya masih kecil,Kata Jesús. “Saya menyaksikannya box sejak usia yang sangat muda dan telah belajar banyak darinya. Melihat dia melakukannya selalu menginspirasi saya. Dia selalu melakukan pertarungan yang sulit dan itu juga menginspirasi. Dia memainkan peran besar dalam membawa saya ke tempat saya sekarang ini. "
Sementara Jesús yang berusia 20 tahun dianggap sebagai pendatang muda dalam olahraga ini, yang akan menjalani ujian terberatnya Mei 1 di Javier Molina, Abel percaya bahwa keponakannya akan menunjukkan kebijaksanaan melebihi usianya dalam pertarungan ini.
“Orang-orang berpikir karena Jesús masih muda maka dia tidak memiliki pengalaman, tapi di situlah mereka salah,Kata Abel. “Di usia yang sangat muda dia menunjukkan banyak kemampuan sebagai petarung veteran. Dia selalu memiliki kesabaran yang luar biasa, serta kemampuan berpikir di atas ring. IQ cincinnya sangat tinggi untuk anak seusianya. "
Menjelang keduanya berkelahi dengan Ramos yang berbagi undercard bayar-per-tayang pada Mei 1, inilah yang dikatakan Abel dan Jesús tentang kamp pelatihan mereka, pertarungan mereka masing-masing dan banyak lagi:
ABEL RAMOS
“Kita tinggal kurang dari tiga minggu lagi sekarang, dan setiap minggu saya merasa lebih kuat dan lebih siap untuk bulan Mei 1. Saya telah berdebat dengan sekelompok pejuang lokal dari Arizona yang membantu mempersiapkan saya. Bagian tersulit masih akan datang, tapi saya hanya berfokus pada rencana permainan dan menjalankan program yang sama yang berhasil di masa lalu.
“Senang menjadi bagian dari acara ini dan menunjukkan kepada penggemar mentalitas pejuang yang kami miliki, pejuang Meksiko dan Meksiko-Amerika. Saya tidak sabar untuk menampilkan pertunjukan yang bagus! Itu memotivasi saya untuk menampilkan gaya pejuang kami dan itu membuat saya bekerja paling keras untuk memberikan yang terbaik pada malam pertarungan.
“Saya belajar banyak dari menghadapi Yordenis Ugas. Saya kembali dan menyaksikan pertarungan itu, dan saya melihat beberapa hal yang dapat saya tingkatkan. Ini berfungsi sebagai motivasi, tetapi itu juga menunjukkan kepada saya bahwa saya termasuk yang terbaik di divisi itu. Saya tidak merasa itu kerugian total karena saya belajar darinya. Tapi dalam pertarungan ini, Saya akan menunjukkan semua peningkatan yang telah saya buat sejak pertarungan Ugas.
Saya menyaksikan pertarungan Figueroa melawan Ugas. Tapi gaya membuat perkelahian dan saya pikir pertarungan saya melawan Figueroa akan berbeda dari yang dimiliki Figueroa dan Ugas.. Saya mengharapkan lebih banyak aksi ketika saya menghadapi Omar.
“Mayoritas dari game plan sedang mempersiapkan Figueroa untuk tampil. Kami mendapatkan mitra tanding yang meniru apa yang dilakukan Figueroa. Bahkan saat saya sedang mengerjakan tas yang berat, kami akan mengingatnya. Saya terus-menerus membayangkan seseorang di depan saya yang saya tahu akan melakukan banyak pukulan.
"Pada akhir hari, Saya hanya ingin menang dengan cara apa pun yang diperlukan. Saya suka bahwa orang-orang mengharapkan pertarungan hebat dari kami dan saya hanya menggunakannya sebagai motivasi untuk mempersiapkan diri saya menghadapi apa yang saya tahu akan menjadi pertandingan dendam. ”
YESUS RAMOS
“Semuanya berjalan sesuai rencana kami di kamp pelatihan ini. Ini adalah pekerjaan berat tujuh hari seminggu. Saya hanya menjaga pola makan yang baik dan berfokus pada kekuatan dan kondisi. Akan 12 putaran dalam perdebatan dan saya merasa siap. Saya sudah dalam kondisi sangat baik dan masih ada dua setengah minggu lagi. Saya telah berdebat dengan paman saya Abel, Jorge Cota dan beberapa petarung lokal lainnya dari Arizona.
“Menurut saya Molina punya banyak pengalaman, yang aku tahu akan dia coba gunakan untuk melawanku. Dia petarung dengan kecepatan bagus. Tapi saat dia melawan Jose Pedraza, dia berjuang melawan kidal. Jadi, Saya mungkin menyebabkan dia beberapa masalah di sana, tapi saya juga lebih besar dari Pedraza. Saya kelas welter yang sah.
“Pertarungan ini begitu dekat dengan Cinco De Mayo, ini masalah besar bagi saya. Akan ada banyak acara dan perayaan minggu itu dan menjadi bagian dari semua itu adalah suatu kehormatan. Saya hanya ingin mewakili Meksiko dengan cara terbaik yang saya bisa.
“Kemenangan atas Molina akan menjadi pernyataan besar. Banyak orang mengatakan bahwa dia adalah lawan terberat saya hingga saat ini. Dan mengalahkannya akan membuatku berkelahi dengan beberapa nama yang lebih besar. Tapi aku harus mengalahkan Molina dulu.
“Saya ingin sekali mengalahkan Molina. Dia menghadapi beberapa petarung tangguh dan tidak ada yang bisa menjatuhkannya. Tetapi jika saya tidak bisa mendapatkan KO maka saya hanya ingin mendominasi dia dan terlihat bagus mendapatkan kemenangan sebisa saya. "

After numerous appearances onShoBox: Generasi Baru, 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!"

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.”

“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. Di atas kertas, this is my toughest fight, tapi aku siap. I’ll be prepared for whatever he brings. With our styles, itu akan menjadi perang. I’m ready to fight right now. Somebody is going down and no matter what happens, the fans are going to win.”

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, Ancajas (32-1-2, 22 Biaya) 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.”

Here is what the press conference participants had to say Thursday:
Adrien Broner
“I’ve had so many great performances and I’m looking forward to another great performance Saturday night. Aku tahu dia datang untuk melawan, 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, lagi, lagi dan lagi. Until I’m really done with boxing. Iya Nih, 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.
"Pada akhir hari, he’s here because of me and everybody in this room is here because of me, so that’s special. Sabtu malam, 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, secara jujur. Satu hari, 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.
"Mendengarkan, 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. Aku tahu dia datang untuk melawan, He’s from Puerto Rico, mereka datang untuk melawan. 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, Saya tidak tahu.
“From the time I was six years old, I never took a break from boxing. So that’s what I did. Saat Ini, 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. Dia seorang pejuang yang baik, 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, Aku mengambil. 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. Dalam tinju, you can’t look past no opponent. I don’t care how everything looks on paper. Dalam tinju, 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. Seperti saya katakan sebelumnya, 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. Sabtu malam, 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. Saya siap untuk pertarungan ini. At this point, Broner might think he has an easy fight, but he’s in the wrong. I’m here to fight, I’m here to win. Kami siap.
“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.”
DOMINIC Breazeale
“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 (Deontay) 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, tentu saja, 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. Seperti saya katakan, 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, kuat, 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. Juga, 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. Dengan itu dikatakan, Aku cerdas, 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.”
ROBERT PASKAH, JR.
“I’ve been in some brawls, but I really haven’t ever shown my true boxing abilities. Saya, Mike Stafford and my father (Robert Paskah, Sr.) 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. Lebih Banyak, 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. Saya siap. Sabtu malam, we’re going to get in there and let it fly.
“Words can’t explain how excited and anxious I am for this, to tell you the truth. 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. Jadi, 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.”

Jaron Ennis vs. Chris van Heerden Declared No Decision After Accidental Headbutt; Gary Antonio Russell Scores Technical Decision Victory Over Juan Carlos Payano Klik DISINI untuk Foto dari Amanda Westcott / SHOWTIME (Photos will be uploaded shortly) Uncasville, Conn. – December 20, 2020 – Undefeated bantamweightReymart Gaballoscored a controversial split-decision victory over former world championEmmanuel Rodriguezin the main event of Saturday night’sSHOWTIMEBOXING: EDISI KHUSUS dari Mohegan Sun Arena di Uncasville, Conn., dalam acara yang dipersembahkan oleh Premier Boxing Champions. Dengan kemenangan tersebut, Gaballo picked up the vacant interim WBC Bantamweight Title.
Saturday’s headliner in the last SHOWTIME BOXING event of 2020 was competitive from the opening bell. In only three of the twelve rounds were Rodriguez and Gaballo separated by more than three landed punches. Secara Menyeluruh, Gaballo (24-0, 20 Biaya) melempar 148 more punches than Rodriguez (19-2, 12 Biaya), but still managed to connect on 16 fewer power punches. The punches of the 28-year-old Rodriguez seemed to be cleaner, as he wobbled the Filipino Gaballo on more than one occasion. Namun Begitu, two of the judges favored Gaballo’s aggression over Rodriguez’s ring generalship.
SHOWTIME’s unofficial scorer Steve Farhood scored the fight 118-110 in favor of Rodriguez and SHOWTIME analyst and former world champion Raul Marquez was dismayed by the judges’ decision.
“There’s no way Gaballo could have won that fight,” said Marquez. “In the worst-case scenario, you could have maybe given him three rounds. I gave him no rounds.”
“I am very happy and blessed to win this belt,” said the 24-year-old Gaballo. “I was always moving forward and controlling the pace, so I thought it was a close fight that either of us could have won.
“I’m waiting for my team to tell me what they have planned for me next. I’m going to keep training hard so I’m always ready for the opportunity when it comes.”
“It was a good fight, but he only won about two or three rounds,” said Rodriguez. “There were two punches from me for every punch he landed. Dia tahu dia hilang. Everyone knows we won. My team told me to go out and keep boxing him in the late rounds. We knew he needed a knockout in the twelfth round. That was his only chance to win.”
Dalam acara co-main, Philadelphia’s undefeated welterweight sensationJaron Ennis (26-0, 24 Biaya) saw his impressive 16-fight knockout streak come to a disappointing end after an accidental headbutt in the first round caused a brutal cut to the forehead of his opponent, Chris van Heerden (28-2-1, 12 Biaya). Watch the clash of headsDISINI: https://twitter.com/ShowtimeBoxing/status/1340495823474442240
With only two minutes and thirty-nine seconds inside the ring to showcase his skills, Ennis was still able to flash glimpses of his championship potential as he landed 22 dari 57 pukulan, 19 of them power shots as he appeared destined to stop the South African van Heerden and keep his KO streak alive before the clash of heads.
“Before the headbutt I had already cut him and I felt strong,” said a disappointed Ennis. “I knew he was ready to go. I feel like I’m getting better and better. Now I’ll just get back in the gym. As you could see from the first round, I was handling him easily. I feel like everyone is still sleeping on me, but I’m ready for anyone. Bring on the big names.”
Di pembuka siaran, bantamweight contenderGary Antonio Russell (18-0, 12 Biaya) kept his unblemished record intact with a technical decision victory over former world championJuan Carlos Payano (21-5, 9 Biaya). After an accidental headbutt caused a bad cut to the left brow of Payano, referee David Fields stopped the fight after the sixth round at the advice of the ringside physician. The fight went to the scorecards, where Russell led on all three cards (58-56, 59-55, 59-55).
Sebelum cedera, Russell and Payano were engaged in a scrappy brawl that saw multiple exchanges of power punches. In the closing seconds of the sixth, and ultimately final round, Russell caught Payano with a counter-shot that hurt Payano. Russell landed 86 dari 243 punches while Payano landed just 58 dari 268 pukulan. Russell flashed excellent body work throughout the fight, out landing Payano 40 untuk 17 on body shots.

Unbeaten Interim WBA Super Featherweight Champion Colbert Battles Hard-Hitting Arboleda in Main Event Live on SHOWTIME® Sabtu ini, Bulan Desember 12
NEW YORK – Bulan Desember 8, 2020 – Unbeaten interim WBA Super Featherweight ChampionChris "Primetime" Colbert will look to make a statement in his first nationally televised main event as he faces hard-hittingJaime Arboleda live on SHOWTIME this Saturday, Bulan Desember 12 di 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT in an event presented by Premier Boxing Champions from Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn.
“I always knew I was going to get here,” kata Colbert. “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,” kata Colbert. “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 10th-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,” kata Colbert. “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.”
In the 26-year-old Arboleda, Colbert will be presented with another rising 130-pound contender with his own sights set on emerging amongst the elite in the division. Arboleda has won five of his last six fights by stoppage and most recently dropped Jayson Velez on his way to a decision victory in February on SHOWTIME.
“Come December 12, Saya siap untuk apa pun yang membawa,” kata Colbert. “I expect him to bring pressure and ‘try’ to make me tired because that’s the only chance he has. He can’t outbox me. That’s not happening. But I love to bang inside and I’m ready for whatever he does. I hope he doesn’t run or clinch me because I’d love to get the knockout and get him out of there early.”
The Brooklyn-native Colbert has continued to work with his longtime coach Aureliano Sosa in his hometown through the difficulties of the pandemic. Those difficulties have led to Colbert sparring with larger welterweight and super welterweights in camp, which Colbert believes could help him with the power Arboleda will bring into the fight.
“Training camp has been going great for the most part,” kata Colbert. “It’s just been a little hard finding sparring partners. But because it’s been difficult to find fighters at my weight I’ve actually been sparring with 147 and 154-pound fighters. I honestly love that because it prepares me better, and who’s to say that Arboleda won’t have power like them? I’m on weight now, meskipun, and ready to put on a show on December 12.”

“I truly believe I am the best up and coming fighter in the game”
Unbeaten Rising Super Lightweight Prospect Hitchins Battles Former Champion Argenis Méndez In Co-Main Event Live on SHOWTIME® Sabtu ini, Bulan Desember 12 Klik DISINIfor Photos from Mayweather Promotions NEW YORK – Bulan Desember 7, 2020 – Prospek naik yang tak terkalahkan Richardson Hitchins shared details of his training camp, including pointers and motivation he received from Floyd Mayweather and Gervonta Davis, ahead of his super lightweight showdown against former world championArgenis Méndezlive on SHOWTIME this Saturday, Bulan Desember 12 di 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT in an event presented by Premier Boxing Champions from Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn.
“Floyd helped me tremendously while I was back in Las Vegas,” said Hitchins. “I already have the fundamentals as a fighter, but he showed me little things here and there and workouts that I have taken back home with me while I train for this fight. I’m not shy about my ability as a fighter, because I truly believe I am the best up and coming fighter in the game, so these are the kind of fights I need in order to show the world who Richardson Hitchins is.
“Gervonta has been instrumental in past fight camps as well, and he’s the type of person you need. He pushes you to go harder. We go head-to-head in trying to outdo each other, and that’s the type of competition that’s needed in order to really be the best.”
Despite training throughout the pandemic, Hitchins has been able to remain on task and on track throughout his camp that began in Las Vegas before ending in his native Brooklyn under the guidance of his head coach Lenny Wilson.
“The thing about me is, I’m focused no matter what,” said Hitchins. “I don’t take ‘off’ after my fights. I stay in shape all year round; I don’t need to get ready in terms of conditioning or getting my body back in shape because this is my job. I take my job very seriously. The discipline Floyd has had throughout his career is the same discipline I have. I have watched my idols and taken things from them so that I can put myself in a position to win.
“I don’t think the pandemic or the holidays necessarily altered my training. I still have access to my gym. There’s nothing that’s going to stand in my way of becoming great. The pandemic doesn’t slow me down, it’s just another roadblock to test my dedication to the sport.”
The 23-year-old Hitchins represented Haiti at the 2016 Olympic Games and will return to the ring after debuting in 2020 with a 10-round decision victory over Nicholas DeLomba in February. It was Hitchins’ second 10-round decision win after his previous fight saw him best Kevin Johnson following 10 rounds in November 2019.
“I often think back to my fight against Kevin Johnson, he’s a tough fighter and he’s the one who I can confidently say brought the best out of me,” said Hitchins. “Those are the fights that make me look back and watch closely the things I need to work on. That fight also showed me that no one should be overlooked, so going into this fight against Mendez, I’m not overlooking him.”
Méndez presents the most accomplished opponent of Hitchins’ young career. The 34-year-old former champion most recently fought Juan Heraldez and Anthony Peterson to draws in 2019, and scored victories over Eddie Ramirez and Ivan Redkach prior to that. For Hitchins, the strong resume of his opponent is something he relishes as a measuring stick for his progress.
“He’s a veteran, he’s been in there with a lot of tough guys and he’s a former world champion, so he clearly has a skill set that I think I need to face at this point in my career,” said Hitchins. “I need those big fights. He’s older now, but I feel like him in his prime still couldn’t touch my skillset. It’s my job to prove that.
“I know this won’t be an easy fight, but I’ll be prepared for whatever he brings. My motivation is to be more than ordinary. I will fulfill my goals when this is all said and done, and honestly, I’m just waiting for this fight to come so I can show that. Whether it’s Méndez, or whoever, the conviction I have and how I feel about myself is stronger than anything standing in front of me in that ring.”

Here is what the press conference participants had to say Tuesday:
Errol SPENCE JR.
“I feel blessed and ready to go. I feel like I’m 100% secara fisik. 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’ di Desember 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, dan pada akhir hari, 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.”
DANNY 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.
“Pada bulan Desember 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.”
Derrick JAMES, Spence Trainer
“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 & Pelatih
“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.
“Kali ini, we’re not going to leave it in the judges’ tangan. We chose to go fight him in Dallas. Danny made that call. Pada akhir hari, Danny just has to go in there and do his thing.”
TOM BROWN, Presiden TGB Promosi
“Errol Spence Jr. vs. 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&Stadion T. 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 pon, before moving up, was simply amazing. Putting these two together will bring back memories of great welterweight battles of the past.”
