Porter and his father and trainer, Ken Porter, were on hand to speak to media and show
off the skills of the 28-year-old Akron, Ohio, native at the Porter Hy-Performance Center.
Here’s what the Porters said Onsdag:
SHAWN PORTER
“Being the first fight in primetime on CBS since Muhammad Ali is very significant. It makes me want to go out there and do something inspiring.
“Keith’s injury gave me enough time to make extra sure that I had everything I needed to get ready for this fight. Not to say I wouldn’t have been ready Mars 12 but it’s given me more time to reflect and visualize. På Juni 25, I know I will be 100 percent on every level.
“We sparred for about two weeks together but it was a while ago. The biggest change has been mental. There are things you learn and grow out of. I’m a lot different. Still some of the same skills but definitely stronger mentally.
“I think he can do some things. He can box very well. He throws good off balanced shots. I can box as well, but I have the pressure, quickness, foot speed and hand speed that it takes to not only outbox him, but to pressure him and hurt him. I think that’s what makes it a great fight.
“At this point, we look at everything we’ve done and move forward each day because we know something special is going to happen. I’m blessed to have a mindset where I don’t focus on what I’ve done. I am always looking forward to the next big opportunity.
“I think the fight is bigger since it’s been postponed. Taking it to Barclays Center is something that is special for the sport of boxing. I won my first championship there and I look forward to keeping up the recent history of great fights at Barclays Center.
“I want to win each and every round. We want to make him have to adjust to what we’re doing. If we control the fight, we win the fight.
“I’ve always been taught to control everything in a fight. I can’t allow him to slow the tempo down. But I’m definitely not going to rush. I have the skills to execute the game plan.
“I think the difference is in my preparation. I have a great team to match my great skills. We’re going to shock the world.”
KEN PORTER, Shawn’s Father & Trener
“We normally don’t work out hard in front of the media, but we’ve decided to switch the energy and go harder during this afternoon session. This isn’t just for the cameras.
“I respect Keith Thurman as a fighter and a person. This is something that happens along the way. Fighters have to fight each other. Some of these young guys working in this gym, they might have to fight Shawn one day. But fight night is fight night.
“I’m not worried about anything Keith Thurman can do. We’ve done all the hard work. The foundation has been laid. He’s done this since he was four-years-old. He’s been on every stage and this is his time.”

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla.

TV-dekning begynner på 9 pm. OG/ 6 pm. PT with a featherweight world title showdown between current champion Jesus Cuellar og tidligere tre-divisjon verdensmester Abner Mares.
Billetter til direktesendingen, som er fremmet av DiBella Entertainment, starter på $49 og er i salg nå.

Born and raised in the area, Thurman worked out at St. Pete Boxing Club along with longtime trainer Dan Birmingham as he prepared for his primetime battle against the strong and dangerous Porter.
Her er hva deltakerne hadde å si onsdag:
KEITH THURMAN
“Muhammad Ali opened up the door for so many people. Michael Jordan changed the game in our era, but Ali did it so long ago. He showed people that boxing is a great sport and can be the most entertaining sport in the world.
“For meg, it’s almost like a dream come true. It’s surreal. I remember at an early age in boxing saying, ‘I want to be the guy that brings boxing back.’ I’m really blessed to be where I am in my career. For all the fighters who could end up on this stage, I’m proud that I’ve been chosen.
“I’ve always considered myself a knockout artist. Back to when I was a teenager knocking out grown men in headgear. Ever since then, I’ve been dropping people like a bad habit.
“I love being a power-puncher. My favorite fighter of all time is Mike Tyson. One of my goals that I set when I was a kid was to have more knockouts than Mike Tyson throughout my career.
“I’m ready for Shawn Porter. We’re going to box harder, box stronger and box better. I will be the better man.
“Training is the fundamentals of getting one prepared. We’ve always known that Shawn Porter was going to come into this fight in tremendous shape. That’s what his training methods are all about. But the Energizer Bunny has never been hit by Keith Thurman, and I’m pretty sure I could stop it in its tracks.
“Jeg går for knockout. I’ve stated it before. My hands are itching for a knockout. I’m ‘One Time,’ hele tiden. That’s my philosophy. Every single time I step into the ring I’m looking for the knockout. We don’t get paid for overtime.
“This is an opportunity to showcase our talents and our skills to the world. The winner will have an opportunity to be the head guy in the sport. I’ve always wanted to have a legacy in the sport of boxing.
“I want to be the undisputed welterweight champion of the world. That’s my ultimate goal. There have only been so many in the history of boxing. I want to be a part of that history.”
DAN BIRMINGHAM, Thurman’s Trainer
“Keith is a guy who deserves to be on this stage. He has a lot of experience and he’s come into his own. This is the kind of thing that happens when you work hard.
“Life happens. Keith was involved in the accident and so we took the necessary rest. He saw the right doctors and we’re back now. We’re ready for Shawn Porter.
“We’re constantly conditioning. We’re working on attacking his style. He’s a short, come-forward brawler who’s going to try to come into Keith’s chest and make it a war. We’re making out adjustments.
“Keith has to be busier, more in charge fighter. He has to work off of his jab and then his power will keep Porter at bay.”

MONTREAL (Juni 4) – Mens verden sørger over tapet av Muhammad Ali, Lørdag nattens Premier Boxing Champions (PBC) på ESPN og ESPN Deportes telecast begynte med en “Seremoniell 10-greve” til minne om “The Greatest” og fortsatte å hylle ham gjennom hele sendingen som ble ledet av en lett tungvektskamp mellom hardtslående russisk olympier Artur Beterbiev mot Argentina Ezekiel Moderne.
Den 31 år gamle Beterbiev (10-0, 10 KOs), som kjemper ut av Montreal, kom tilbake til ringen etter en nesten år lang permittering etter en skulderoperasjon. Nå er sju måneder fjernet fra prosedyren, Beterbiev så skarp ut fra åpningsklokken da han kastet rette høyrehender og kroppsskudd effektivt for å starte kampen.
Maderna, som også kom etter en lang permittering, håpet å komme med en uttalelse i sin første kamp på nordamerikansk jord da han gikk opp i vekt for denne kampen. Beterbiev brukte sin kraft og presisjon for å kontrollere hele kampen, men sparket den på høygir i tredje runde, sender den 29 år gamle Maderna til lerretet med to høyrehender. Han reiste seg, men ble kort etter sendt til lerretet igjen. Denne gangen, spytter ut munnstykket for å forsinke kampen, noe som førte til at dommer Marlon B. Wright for å trekke et poeng.
Ved starten av runde fire, Maderna ble droppet med en straffende høyre hånd. Han reiste seg bare finne seg selv lerret agan, ser på hjørnet hans, de kastet inn håndkleet og kampen ble stoppet kl 54 sekunder av runde fire.
”Jeg er veldig fornøyd med prestasjonen min,” sa Beterbiev. “Jeg vil takke teamet mitt for deres tålmodighet under min inaktivitet.”
”Mannen min gjorde det veldig bra etter et års fravær,” sa Beterbievs trener Marc Ramsay. “Han er veldig spesiell. På kort eller mellomlang tid, vi ønsker å kjempe i et verdensmesterskap.”
PBC på ESPN-sending, som er den første av syv mellom Juni 4 og august 12, åpnet med to weltervekts sørpoter mot hverandre i håp om å opprettholde sine ubeseirede rekorder. Men, det tok ikke lang tid for Florida Bryant Perrella (14-0, 13 KOs) for å bevise at han var den bedre mannen da han scoret en andre runde TKO over Washington, D.C David Grayton (14-1, 10 KOs).
Grayton var mer aktiv i begynnelsen av kampen, arbeider med høyre hånd på innsiden. Perrella brukte sin lengre rekkevidde og høydeforskjell til sin fordel da han gjorde sitt beste for å diktere tempoet. Perrella slo Grayton ned i begynnelsen av andre runde og ble kraftfull med høyre hånd da Grayton lot seg bli utsatt for straff. Endelig, Perrella kastet en venstre som fikk Grayton til å snuble og dommer David Griffin vinket av kampen kl. 2:19.
“Han kom inn veldig tøft – en tøff konkurrent,” Said Perrella. “Jeg var den beste mannen i kveld. Jeg tok ham med noen harde skudd, fortumlet ham. Jeg tok meg god tid, Jeg lyttet til hva teamet mitt sa og fikk ham ut derfra.
“Dette er enormt,” fortsatte Perella. “Dette er det vi har ønsket oss en stund for å kjempe mot et nytt ubeseiret prospekt og få den anerkjennelsen vi føler vi fortjener. Weltervektdivisjonen er fylt med løver, tigre og bjørner, men jeg er Tarzan baby. Jeg er kongen av denne jungelen. Jeg er klar for hva som helst.”
Også omtalt på sendingen var en seks-runders superweltervektkonkurranse mellom prospektet Jamontay Clark (10-0, 6 KOs) av Cincinnati og den meksikanske krigeren Edgar Ortega (16-6, 10 KOs).

Til tross for at han tok kampen med ni dager’ legge merke til, Ortega ble med Clark alle seks rundene, selv rulle ankelen i den fjerde. Etter at den siste klokken ringte, Clark forble ubeseiret, registrerer en enstemmig avgjørelsesseier med dommerne som scorer kampen 58-55 og 58-54 (to ganger).

HOLLYWOOD, FL. (Juni 4, 2016) – Undefeated lightweight world champion Rances“Kid Blast” Barthelemy (25-0, 13 KOs) defeated former world champion Mickey “The Spirit” Bey (22-2-1, 10 KOs) ved delt avgjørelse (117-110, 116-111, 110-117) i hovedturneringen av Premier Boxing Champions (PBC) på Spike Fredag night at the Hard Rock Live at the Seminole Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Florida.
Following an exciting first round in which Barthelemy backed Bey up at the bell, round two came to a close with similar fireworks in the form of an accidental head butt. In the commotion, a stunned Barthelemy stumbled to the canvas and referee Sam Burgos ruled it an official knockdown, making it the first of Barthelemy’s career.
Barthelemy said, “I really don’t remember exactly what happened, but I felt it was more of a slip than anything. I was a little off balance and we butted heads so at that point that’s when I went down, but that’s okay. I don’t mind that they counted it.”
Bey had issues with the head contact also. “After I dropped him he got me again with a good head butt. The cut on my eye from that second head butt affected me for about four or five rounds, but it’s a fight, so you have to do the best you can with the vision you have. But I would have liked to avoid all the head contact.”
“It was the first time in my entire career, both amateurs and professionals, that I hit the canvas in any way,” added Barthelemy. “It was just a little surprising, but after that I knew I had to come out strong and put pressure on him because I knew the judges might hold that against me. My mentality originally was to outbox but I had to change my plans and start putting pressure on him.”
In a fight that saw a lot of competitive back and forth action during the middle and late rounds, neither fighter was able to take complete control or end the evening early.
Barthelemy believed he’d done enough to win unanimously arguing, “When I heard the judge who gave the score to Bey I thought he was either blind or he was bought. I felt that was disrespectful not only to me but to the fans as well.
“We knew what Mickey was prepared for though,” concluded Barthelemy. “We knew he was going to be an evasive counter puncher and we knew that Bey came from the Mayweather school of boxing. So we knew what we were up against and he put on a tough fight.”
Bey vowed to avenge the hard-fought loss soon. “I’m ready to get right back after it and chase another belt. I’m looking to stay busy and get back in the ring soon.”
I TV-opener, undefeated Puerto Rican bantamweight Emmanuel Rodriguez (15-0, 10 KOs) beat experienced Mexican Alberto “Metro” Guevara (24-3, 9 KOs) ved enstemmig avgjørelse (99-91, 100-90, 99-91).
Rodriguez controlled the opening rounds with a variety of left hooks and overhand rights, backing Guevara up at will.
“My strategy was to come in and attack him because he is not your typical Mexican-style fighter,” Said Rodriguez.
An accidental head butt at the end of round four led to a cut that developed under the left eye of Guevara.
“We knew he was an awkward fighter,” said Rodriguez of their heads colliding, “But he was even more awkward than we thought.”
A highly decorated amateur, Rodriguez continued his calculated, methodical approach throughout the middle rounds.
Rodriguez added, “We weren’t able to really decipher him in the first rounds but we were able to adjust eventually.”
Guevara, who has fought in two world title fights, threw a change-up and came out fighting more wildly in round seven, causing Rodriguez some minor issues with the distance.
Men, Rodriguez stuck to his game plan and used his superior timing to coast to victory in the later rounds.
Guevara said, “My plan was to box him and tap him when I had him, but things didn’t come out that way. I’m not sure if it was a lack of focus or what it was, I’m just not sure. I feel good though. Det var en hard kamp, harder than I expected. He’s a strong guy. I felt a little constrained and a little slow, but I tried my best i kveld.”
Rodriguez summed up the win adding, “Jeg føler stor, thank God. I’m really happy with this Victory, it was a victory that I needed to add onto my record and thankfully I was able to get it. Now I’m going to take a month off and wait until my management team tells us what fight date comes next so we can continue to pursue the goals we have set for ourselves.”
The second televised bout featured unbeaten prospect Caleb “Søte Hands” Plant(13-0, 10 KOs) getting a knockout victory over Columbia’s Carlos Galvan (12-5-1, 11 KOs) i en mellomvekt bout.
Plant spent much of the first two rounds displaying his trademark showmanship and feeling out Galvan.
Plant said his strategy entering the ring was, “To be sharp and slick i kveld, stay relaxed and patient. I didn’t want to force anything or leave myself out there too long.”
That’s exactly what Plant did, ending the bout in the fourth with a devastating blow to Galvan’s solar plexus.
A frustrated Galvan said, “He got a lucky shot, I threw a straight right and he slipped by it and landed a body shot to my liver so I wasn’t able to continue with the fight after that.”
“It was just about staying patient and waiting for him to make a mistake,” nevnte anlegg. “I wanted to take advantage, and that’s what happened. I took the body shot when I saw he was open and he went down.”

just going to be Keith Thurman.’ – Thurman

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (Juni 2, 2016) – Keith Thurman, the reigning WBA Welterweight World Champion, is four weeks out from his Juni 25 title defense against Shawn Porter and has his 20-year career in boxing on his mind heading into the crucial showdown.
Thurman will be headlining on CBS live from Barclays Center in Brooklyn with televised coverage starting at 9 pm. EST/6 pm. PST. Billetter kan kjøpes på nettet ved å gå
www.ticketmaster.com, www.barclayscenter.com eller ved å ringe 1-800-745-3000. Billetter kan også kjøpes på American Express billettkontoret på Barclays Center. Gruppe rabatter er tilgjengelig ved å ringe 844-BKLYN-GP.
“It’s been an amazing journey and no one predicted this better than my first coach Ben Getty,” said 27-year-old Thurman. “It puts me in a state of gratitude for Ben. He told everyone I’d be world champ, and here I am, defending my title against Shawn Porter. I am just starting to see what Ben Getty saw in me and the mark that I can make in boxing.”
Thurman isn’t the only one celebrating a boxing anniversary – his trainer of 13 years and Florida Hall of Fame elected boxing trainer Dan Birmingham, who trained former champion Winky Wright, has been in the sport for 50 år, and assistant trainer Chris Getty has grown up with Thurman in the sport through his father Ben Getty. The fight also is the first primetime fight on CBS in almost 40 years since the Muhammad Ali vs. Leon Spinks from Las Vegas.
Nå, 20 years after Ben Getty introduced Thurman to boxing as part of an after school program, he is one of the strongest power punchers in the division, with an excellent knockout rate of 80%. His focus, men, is on making boxing history.
“My goal is to be known as the hardest hitting welterweight in the division,” Said Thurman. “This camp, if anything, I feel more comfortable. I’m fully recovered, sparring, trening. I’ve been throwing power punches for what seems like forever and it’s a little weird. I can’t help but think about how this is my 20th year in boxing and knowing the longevity I’ve had. It’s given me a new confidence. “
For Birmingham, this training camp has been a re-commitment to the strategic and conditioning process the team has gone through for each fight for the past 13 år.
“Training is going real well,” said Birmingham. “We know Porter is a come-forward fighter – he is going to try to be on Keith’s chest. I want Keith to box, use his power, use his jab, and use his feints to work the body from the inside. All the things Keith knows how to do. Porter is not a real technical fighter so we’re working on using that to our advantage.”
Birmingham on sparring:
“We’ve been doing great sparring work – we have some tough, tough kids in camp. We’ve been boosting aerobic capacity, and those kids are keeping on Keith. He’s going to be in great shape for this fight. We’re excited for this fight. “
What does Team “One Time” anticipate?
Birmingham: “We know that Porter is going to bring it so we’re working extra hard on aerobics and being fit for this fight. Keith’s doing a lot of running, cardio, endurance; we expect a tough fight and we’ll be prepared for this fight. We expect a victory”
What can fans expect on Juni 25?
Thurman: “Hopefully a knock out! I’m coming to bring it. Shawn is coming to bring it. Det blir en stor kamp. We are two of the top welterweights in the division. Two of the youngest and strongest welterweights in the sport going toe-to- toe.”
What is your goal for this fight?
Thurman: “My goal is to be known as the hardest hitting welterweight in the division. My lifelong goal is to be the undisputed welterweight champion of the world – and I have a ways to go in unifying the titles. Once I move past Shawn I look forward to the challenge of making my dreams come true. I’m blessed to be where I am today.”
The Welterweight division is one of the hottest divisions in boxing, what do you think of a Super 6 tournament in the division?
Thurman: “I’m for it. In the 147-pound division it’s time to unify a title. Someone at 147 should have more than one belt and that’s my goal that before end of the year to have more than one belt.”
One of the sports more enigmatic athletes, Thurman is known for having a varied list of interests and hobbies setting him apart from other fighters, including playing the flute, piano and guitar, books (The Secret Life of Plants to Bhagavad Gita the Little Buddhist Handbook) and music (Ziggy Marley to Tupac). It is his uniqueness that helps him be an easy fan-favorite.
“Greatest advice I’ve been given is just to be Keith Thurman – just be me,” Said Thurman. “I’m looking forward to stepping on this scale, not over talking and just going in and getting the knock out.”

From Suzanne Teresa/Premier Boxing Champions
CHICAGO (Juni 2, 2016) – Rau'shee Warren er klar. The three-time Olympian and top bantamweight challenger from Cincinnati has spent months preparing for his second showdown against world champion Juan Carlos Payano. I august 2015, the two fought ferociously to a controversial split decision, which went in Payano’s favor, allowing the Dominican Republic native to retain his title. Warren was less than pleased with the judges’ beslutning, and intends to take what he feels is rightfully his when the two rematch in primetime on NBC on June 18.
“I felt like I clearly won the first fight,” said Warren. “I thought the two judges that scored the fight for him were going to give it to him no matter what. The fight was in his backyard. It really hurt me when they raised his hand, I felt cheated.”
The first fight between Payano and Warren served as the main event for the first installment of the PBC: Neste runde on Bounce TV series on August 2, 2015. One judge scored the bout 115-109 for Warren while the other two had it 113-11 for Payano, leaving the two men to dispute the true winner of the bout. But for Payano, there was no question that he was the rightful winner that night.
“I ran him ragged from post to post,” said Payano. “It was the champion chasing the challenger. Normally to win the title, it has to be the other way around. If he had got the decision, there would have been no controversy, he’d be a superstar.”
The fight featured solid two-way action throughout but the final scores were effected by a couple of decisions by referee Frank Santore Jr. Payano lost a point in the third round for punches to the back of the head, while Warren was deducted two points in round nine for a foul that was ruled intentional.
For denne kampen, neither man plans to leave any doubt in the minds of the audience or the judges.
“I watched our first fight about 20 ganger,” said Warren. “I spent a lot of time looking at my mistakes and things I needed to eliminate. I feel like this fight is going to be really easy for me now. Payano is not getting out of this one. I won’t be finished until he stops. He’s going to try to get away from me, but I’m going to use what I’m doing in the gym to take him out smart. I’m way smarter now and a knockout is going to come.”
“I plan to win even more convincingly this time,” said Payano. “I’m going to use my ring intelligence and not fight on emotion like I did in the first fight. Jeg kommer til å kjempe smart, but my style is my style. I don’t know how to fight any other way, so it will be another great fight. I’m sure he will make adjustments but I know I will win this fight.”
The punch stats told the classic tale of the busier fighter versus the more accurate fighter. Payano threw 709 punches to Warren’s 439. But it was Warren who out landed Payano 173 til 166, while owning the advantage in connect percentage at 39 percent to 23 prosent. Warren was even able to score a knockdown of Payano in the 12th round but was unable narrow the scores enough to get the victory.
Nå, training camp is in full swing as as both men look to gain an edge and leave the ring with their hand raised on Juni 18.
“Training has been going great,” said Payano. “It’s been a very long camp. We were supposed to fight a long time ago and it didn’t happen. We’ve been waiting a long time and I’m ready to go. I’m eating gunpowder and the bomb is going off on Juni 18, so be ready.”
“The first time around it was just me, my brother, personal trainer and my coach out in Colorado,” said Warren. “This time I started training back home in Cincinnati and now I’m in Washington, Likespenning. sparring with Gervonta Davis to get ready. The way I look at it, my sparring partner is better than Payano.”
