Kelly Swanson

Kiitos kaikille soitosta. Olemme tänään innoissamme puhuessamme todella erinomaisesta näyttelystä, jonka otsikko on Antonio Tarver vs. Steve Cunningham ja mukana myös Marco Huckin ja Krzysztof Glowackin välinen ottelu.. Aloitamme Huckin ja Glowackin kanssa.

Tätä ottelua mainostaa DiBella Entertainment yhdessä Warriors Boxing- ja Huck Sports Promotions -kampanjoiden kanssa. Annan tämän puhelun Lou DiBellalle, joka tekee puhelun viralliset esittelyt.

Lou Dibella

Kiitos Kelly. Olen innoissani voidessani mainostaa tätä upeaa tapahtumaa Prudential Centerissä toisen PBC: n Spike-näyttelyssä. Spike-näyttelyiden PBC on ollut toistaiseksi loistava. On ilo työskennellä vakavaraisuuskeskuksen kanssa. Viihteen ja ohjelmoinnin johtaja Sean Saadeh ja hänen koko henkilöstö Prudential Centerissä ovat olleet ilo työskennellä toistaiseksi. Tämä on ensimmäinen merkittävä tapahtuma, jossa olen koskaan työskennellyt heidän kanssaan, ja se on ollut tähän mennessä hieno.

Jälleen hienoa työskennellä Spiken kanssa, heidän urheilun ja monitasoisen ohjelmoinnin varapuheenjohtaja on Jon Slusser. Heidän koko henkilökuntansa on loistava. Olen ollut hyvin vaikuttunut siitä, mitä Spike on tehnyt, ja heidän tiiminsä mielestäni on yksi parhaista nuorista energisistä lähetysryhmistä nyrkkeilyssä juuri nyt. Mielenkiintoista on, että Antonio Tarver on osa tätä lähetystä ja hän kilpailee pääkilpailussa raskaansarjan ottelussa Steveä vastaan “US-standardiseulan” Cunningham ottelussa, joka mielestäni tulee olemaan upea faneille ja täytyy voittaa taistelu molemmille kavereille.

Mutta ennen kuin pääsemme päätapahtumaan, tapahtumaliput ovat hinnoiteltu $150, $100, $70 ja $45 ei sisällä palvelumaksuja. Ne ovat saatavilla osoitteessa Ticketmaster.com tai veloitetaan puhelimitse osoitteesta 1-800-745-3000 tai missä tahansa Ticketmaster-myyntipisteessä. He voivat myös ostaa Prudential Centerin lipputulot. Spike-lähetys ja PBC: n ulkopuolinen televisio-ohjelma alkavat klo 9 pm sekä itä- että Tyynenmeren aikaa.

Aloitusottelu on loistava maailmanmestaruusristeilijöiden taistelu Marcon välillä “Kapteeni” Huck kuka on 38-2-1 kanssa 26 KO: t, jotka puolustavat risteilijäpainoluokan ylivaltaansa, on paitsi mestari myös tällä hetkellä hallitseva risteilijä maailmassa Krzysztof Glowackia vastaan. 24-0 kanssa 15 KOs. Tämä on Yhdysvaltojen debyytti Glowackille ja myös Huckille. Mielestäni tämä on todella loistava ottelu nyrkkeilyfaneille. Huck on todella risteilijöiden kuningas juuri nyt.

Hän on myös kampanjoinut raskaansarjassa, jossa hän on pystynyt kilpailemaan tehokkaasti ja hänellä on kädet täynnä voittamatonta vastustajaa.. Sekä Krzysztofille että Marcolle tämä on heidän ensimmäinen taistelunsa Yhdysvaltain maaperällä, ja se on ensimmäinen tilaisuus televisioida valtavan yleisön edessä amerikkalaisen televisio-ohjelman pääajalla.

Haluaisin kysyä molempien ensimmäisen kysymyksen ja aloitan Krzysztofista, kuinka olet valmistautunut tähän tilaisuuteen ja mitä sinulle tarkoittaa, että pidät tämän ensimmäisen suuren taistelun Yhdysvaltain maaperällä ja kerrot meille hieman enemmän tunteistasi taistelusta ensimmäistä kertaa Amerikassa. Krzysztof ensin.

Krzysztof Glowacki

Olen erittäin onnellinen taistellessani Yhdysvalloissa. Olen hyvin kiitollinen promoottoreilleni, jotka antoivat minulle mahdollisuuden tehdä se, mutta tein sen myös itse voittamalla eliminointitaistelut. Toivon vain elokuussa 14 Aion voittaa. Tuon tittelin takaisin Puolaan, ja Puolalla on uusi maailmancup. Olen hyvin motivoitunut tähän pitkään harjoittamaani taisteluun. Ei ole vammoja, joita suoritan terveinä, joten suuri motivaatio ennen elokuuta 14.

Marco Huck

Olen erittäin onnellinen, että olen ensimmäinen kerta Amerikassa nyrkkeilemässä. Odotan kovasti innolla taistelua Amerikassa. Se on aina ollut yksi suurimmista tavoitteistani ja uratavoitteistani taistella täällä, ja olen saavuttanut melkein kaiken, mitä Euroopassa on. Taistelin myös joitain amerikkalaisia ​​aiemmin ja nyt haluan tulla tänne näyttämään amerikkalaisille taitoni täällä ja odotan todella innolla ja olen innoissani elokuussa 14.

L. Dibella

Paljon kiitoksia ja mielestäni tämä on hieno nyrkkeilyn faneille, ja näemme Marco Huckin laadukkaan taistelijan PBC: llä Spikellä. Krzysztof on voittamaton nälkäinen kaveri, joka haluaa tuoda vyön takaisin Puolaan. Joten minulla on erityinen kiitos Krzysztofin promoottoreille Warriors Boxing ja ystäväni Leon Margulesille sekä kaikille ihmisille, jotka ovat Huckin myynninedistämisyrityksen kanssa.

Aion avata sen pari kysymystä jokaiselle kaverille. Aiomme rajoittaa sen vain pari kysymystä jokaiselle näistä kavereista, ennen kuin pääsemme päätapahtumaan. Joten jos voisit avata sen lehdistön kysymyksiin.

Q

Marco olet tulossa luultavasti paremmin tunnetuksi, mutta jälleen kerran sanotaan, että tämä on ensimmäinen taistelusi Yhdysvalloissa, kun taistelet nuoremman voittamattoman kaverin kanssa, joka on etelä. Kerro meille, mitä mielesi edut ovat tässä taistelussa?

M. Huck

Suurin etu kaikista on, että olen Marco Huck. minulla on 13 otsikko puolustaa kaikkia suuria nimiä vastaan. Näytän heille kaikille, mistä olen kyse. Hänellä ei todellakaan ole niin paljon kokemusta kuin kuulen, että hän on puhunut itsestään vähän viime aikoina. Mutta monet ihmiset ovat tehneet sen ennen häntä, ja minä näytän hänelle, mikä todellinen kauppa todella on.

Q

Okei ja kysymys Krzysztofille samalla tavalla. Tämä on mielestäni askel eteenpäin, kun taistelet mestaruushävittäjää vastaan, joka on kokeneempi, kuten hän sanoi. Kerro meille, mitä mielesi edut ovat tässä taistelussa?

K. Glowacki

Marco sanoi juuri, että hän on periaatteessa voittanut kaiken, Luulen, että tämä on vahvuuteni, koska hänellä on kaikki mitä halusi, ja olen enemmän nälkäinen kaveri, kaveri, jolla on suurempi motivaatio taistelijaan nähden, joka on periaatteessa saavuttanut maksimaalisen tavoitteensa. Joten motivaatio ja nälkä ja nälkäisyys ovat numero yksi.

Q

Marco, Halusin vain tietää, kuinka kauan on ollut suunnitelmissa tulla Yhdysvaltoihin ja miksi hän tunsi nyt olevan oikea aika toteuttaa tämä?

M. Huck

Olen halunnut taistella Yhdysvalloissa yli kymmenen vuoden ajan ollakseni rehellinen, ongelma oli, että minulla ei oikeastaan ​​ollut ketään vieressäni, joka voisi auttaa minua saavuttamaan tämän unelman. Mutta nyt löysin Lou DiBellan, jonka kokemus on loistava ja joka voi auttaa minua täällä ja auttaa minua siinä, mitä entiset promoottorini eivät kyenneet tekemään. Sanoin jo, että saavutin kaiken tähänastisella urallani ja nyt pääsen debyyttini Yhdysvaltoihin ja odotan innolla tätä taistelua ja pitkään ajaessani täällä Yhdysvalloissa.

Q

Onko huolestuttavaa siitä, ettet ole taistellut melkein vuoden ajan?

M. Huck

Ei ole mitään huolta. Aloin juuri harrastaa ja olin itse asiassa hieman yllättynyt siitä, kuinka hyvä se meni ja kuinka sparrapartnerini lähetettiin lentämään lattialle. Odotan todella innolla pääsyä takaisin kehään. I’m so motivated my motivation is bigger than ever before even in my previous fights even when I wasn’t that motivated I was still able to do what I have to do. I’m just looking forward to coming over here and do what I can do best. I really want to present myself to the American audience and I am convinced that I will have a popular style.

Q

Krzysztof is there any opponent that you feel has helped prepare you for this fight?

K. Glowacki

There’s only one Marco Huck so I did not fight anybody who is close to the style and the problems that Marco brings to the ring. But I fought very good fighters. Every fighter I fought was there and this is kind of verification for me if I am the guy to be our next World Champion and I hope I am and this is the time.

Q

Marco you fought Alexander Povetkin arguably the top two or three heavyweights in the world and it was a draw. A lot of people think you beat him. How long are you going to be staying a cruiserweight?

M. Huck

Everybody knows that I actually won the fight against Povetkin. Povetkin himself actually came to me after the fight and told me that he never wants to see me again. My ambition has always been to fight the best and also to fight the best in the heavyweight division. Looking at the division right now and just the fight of Wilder against Molina was actually embarrassing to be honest. But yes I want to go back to the heavyweight division in the future and take over there as I did in the cruiserweight division.

L. Dibella

Well thank you very much. Thanks very much gentlemen. One thing that I want to make clear by both fighters on this call, there is only one Marco Huck. He’s the dominant cruiserweight in the world he’s the guy that has the ability to challenge for a heavyweight championship and he’s going to be tested at the Prudential Center on PBC on Spike on August 14. I thank you both for joining us and look forward to seeing you in the states in the next few weeks. So thank you Marco thank you Krzysztof.

Our main event of the evening features two guys who are really well known to boxing fans Antonio “Taikuri” Tarver is 31-6 kanssa 22 KOs and has worn a number of belts is now trying to fight his way to a shot at the heavyweight world championship and he has a very big obstacle in his way in Steve “US-standardiseulan” Cunningham. Steve’s record is 28-6 kanssa 13 KOs but it’s a deceptive record because many of those seven losses should have gone the other way in my view.

Steve is a guy who’s one of the highest character people in all of boxing one of the most well respected by his peers by the press by the media by the fans because of the type of guy he is. He’s a family man, he’s a man of faith and he’s a guy that lays it all out in the ring. He’s never been in a bad fight and he’s never given anything but 110% and I’m proud to be able to promote a fight featuring Steve Cunningham. They will headline the evening in a 12-round heavyweight battle.

This is a match that both fighters must win. This is a must win fight if they’re going to continue at the highest levels of the heavyweight division Antonio and Steve don’t have a margin for error here. The winner will move on to a huge opportunity and the loser of this bout it’s a huge step back and maybe really the end of the line. So this is the kind of fight that figures to be a terrific match up and a must win fight that’s a recipe for a great fight.

Steve Cunningham

Thanks for having me, it’s a pleasure and honor to be here I’m working hard and going at it.

L. Dibella

Antonio Tarver is one of the biggest names in boxing for a long time. Antonio and I got to spend some time together because of the Rocky Balboa movie. He’s an actor and he’s a commentator for Spike now and one of the best in my view actually up and coming on air guys in boxing. Antonio I know you’re looking forward to this opportunity and you want that shot at a heavyweight title but you got to get through Mr. Cunningham. What do you have to say about that?

Antonio Tarver

Well it’s just like any fight I’ve had over the years. All of my fights have been huge fights. I can tell you I feel good going in. I’ve done the work. I haven’t underestimated Steve Cunningham at all. I have a great deal of respect for the man. His story with his daughter is really outstanding. But unfortunately we in the hurt business and this is boxing at the highest level and it’s all about opportunities.

There’s no fighter out there that has struggled and overcame like I have and it’s those struggles that are going to carry me through this fight and beyond. I hear his story and it’s heartfelt but the last three years of my life can’t nobody even comprehend. Sitähän mestareita on tehty. I truly believe God gives his toughest test to his strongest warriors and I’ve been tested and I’ve proven that I can go through and I can endure.

So this fight is going to be about who wants it most and that’s the bottom line because we both know how to pull our hands that’s not a doubt. But it’s going to come down to who want it most. He has a good distance, he’s long, he’s rangy and got good movement. He’s an active fighter. But at the same time, the boxing match within this boxing match is going to be a fight.

When the fight slows down, I’m going to be right there. En ole menossa minnekään. He’s going to have to knock me out to take this victory from me. That’s the only way I’m going out there.

That’s the only way I’m losing is if I get knocked out because I’m in great shape. Olen valmis menemään. I know what this fight means to me, and the time is now.

I wanted a big name guy so that I could really put my skill on display. Steve Cunningham gives me the opportunity. I know he wants this fight bad; we both do. There can only be one winner.

I’m bringing it August 14. Olen valmis menemään. my sparring is going well, my training camp is going well. I have a great trainer in Orlando Cuellar who’s on the line as we speak.

So we’re just ready for August 14, and we’re going to set the Prudential Center on fire. We know we’ve got some foreigners that are going to be coming over and they may bring a lot of fans. But we’re going to bring the show. Don’t miss the Magic Show on August 14.

Q

Anthony, there are a lot of rumors that you’re looking past Mr. Cunningham and to the next big fight. Can you please shed some light on that?

A. Tarver

No man, En ole, I’m a veteran. I’ve been around the game forever and a day. I’m not ever going to be that naïve to look past a credible fighter like Steve Cunningham. That would be dumb of me.

En ole etsimässä hänen ohitseen, but I’m a realist. I can see the future too. I’m a realist. I know what this fight means. En ole etsimässä hänen ohitseen. But I am looking through him. Straight through him. He’s transparent. I’m looking straight through Steve Cunningham; kyllä. I’m not looking past him but I’m looking through him.

Q

Any predictions for this fight at all champ?

A. Tarver

You’re going to see a well-conditioned Magic Man doing what he do best and that’s winning. Se siitä. I mean I’m not going to have no predictions. I mean I know I’ve got my hands full. I’m going to have to bite down on that mouthpiece. I’m going to have to pull that cup up and I’ve going to have to dig to get Steve Cunningham out of there, yksi.

I’m ready for that. I’m preparing for that war, a battle of attrition; it’s going to be a hell of a fight.

I predict that this fight can be a candidate for fight of the year because I know what it’s going to have to take for me to get this victory. It’s going to have to take the old Magic Man. I’m going to have to show you glimpses of the old Magic Man with the things that I’m able to do in the right.

If it comes down to making adjustments, I’m going to be able to make those adjustments. If it comes down to getting inside and letting them rip, I’m going to be able to do that. If it comes down to making him miss and making him pay, I’m going to be able to do that.

I just believe in my skill and my ability man, even at the late age of 46. It’s just a blessing from God that I’m even still able to do it.

So I’m walking through my destiny knowing that it’s not an accident that I’m here today. It’s not an accident that I had to go through what I had to go through to get here.

This is a purpose and its destiny for me. Nothing is going to stop me. That’s bottom line. I can’t wait to see this shit unfold.

I’m ready you and excited that I’m back on national network TV; that I’m back at the top of the game and everybody is going to be able to see for themselves. After August 14 there won’t be no more doubt about what I can do and my capability at 46.

My skills haven’t eroded. My timing hasn’t eroded. My speed hasn’t eroded. I’m still here and that’s what I want to show the world on August 14, that they slept on the wrong man; aika.

Q

A lot of people have you as the underdog in this fight, and want to see a Tarver-Deontay Wilder fight? Can you stop all that from happening?

S. Cunningham

I’ve been getting counted out since I started challenging for a world title. I’ve been traveling to Europe fighting in Poland where nobody wants to go. Fighting in Germany, successfully defending my title numerous times, where nobody wants to go. Etelä-Afrikka, where nobody wants to go. I could care less about what anybody says. When I fought Marco Huck I was the five to one underdog and they threw the towel in on him in the last round. So I can care less about what anyone says. I’ve got to question myself to Antonio Tarver. He’s speaking about his respect for me and there is respect for fighters regardless before and after the fight.

But a lot of people who know fighters, they know that at a certain point in training camp a fighter is agitated, hän on valmis taistelemaan, and it’s time to fight. I’ve been at that point, so I’m ready to fight right now.

He’s trying to compare life woes. My daughter’s struggle and the struggle he said he went through in the past three years. Look dude, you can keep all the woes. You can take my daughter’s woes. You can take your woes. I don’t want them. Nobody wants those woes. We can’t compare that. I’m not into comparing life woes.

Now you say your life was hard in the past three years and nobody could understand; nobody could fathom. Have you been driving that Bentley you bought after the Green fight?

You’ve been driving in a Bentley. You understand what I’m saying. Have you made over $500,000 in the last three years? I haven’t. I don’t have a Bentley and beating you is going to get me that; you understand.

So don’t try to compare nothing that you’ve been through that will not stand up to a damn thing Steve Cunningham has been through in his whole career.

A. Tarver

With all due respect, I think you kind of misinterpreted what I was saying. I know we both got struggles and I respect that. And no, my struggles may not be personal like yours, family oriented, and I respect that too.

But what I’m saying that the struggle that I had to overcome to get back to where I’m at right now today. After I got suspended, I can just talk all day about it. Losing my job; losing the opportunity to commentate in the Olympics; that meant a lot to me.

S. Cunningham

But listen, we can go all day. We could trade back and forth all day like baseball cards. You had troubles; I had troubles.

A. Tarver

No income. I didn’t make no income.

S. Cunningham

We’re going to get in the ring and match skills. I don’t want to hear about your woes. I’m actually sick about talking about my daughter’s situation because it’s out there.

A. Tarver

But look dude, I’m just giving – I’m giving you the utmost respect on that because I’d understand if it was my daughter, I understand that’s out of our control.

S. Cunningham

Well this is another question I have for you then. Where does all this utmost respect come from? A few years ago it was all, who are you. You’re nobody. Come on man, let’s keep it real. No Tarver, let’s keep it real.

A. Tarver

I keep it real.

S. Cunningham

I’m not one of these smart-ass, trash talkers who can run they mouth and get themselves into some money. I fight to get my money, you understand? So you’re that dude who runs his mouth so much. Olet ammattilainen suu-runner.

Yes you’re a great fighter but then you’re also a professional mouth-runner. Olen ammattilainen taistelija, aika. You understand? I’m not jumping in the ring on August 14 to beat the hell out of Antonio Tarver. Do you understand?

A. Tarver

Hei, that’s your mission. That’s everybody’s mission. But at the same time, I don’t understand where you’re coming from because I’ve been as quiet as I’ve ever been before a fight. I haven’t really been digging at you about nothing. I’m giving you the utmost respect because I know you’re a warrior. I know you’re coming to win, and I know I’ve got my hands full. That’s why I’m busting my ass in training camp.

If you ask me, I think you’re taking me lightly. Sinä näkymät minut. How in the hell you going to break camp and go to Vegas and commentate, like you’ve got it easy. You feel me? I wouldn’t break camp for you, but you going to break camp for me? Good luck August 14.

S. Cunningham

If you think me going to commentate for two days is breaking camp…

A. Tarver

You got a problem. You’re out your rabbit ass mind. You going to fly to Vegas and think you going to beat me August 14, you crazy. You out your mind. You distracted.

S. Cunningham

I was ready to fight when they announced it. Do you understand me?

A. Tarver

You don’t know what’s coming at your ass August 14. You playing.

S. Cunningham

Distracted? There’s no such thing as a distraction.

A. Tarver

You playing with it. I ain’t Marco Huck. When I knocked Danny Green out, none of them clowns wanted to fight me. I ain’t Marco Huck.

S. Cunningham

When you start looking like him in the 12th, then think about that.

A. Tarver

Whatever. Hei, enjoy your weekend in Vegas, bro. I’m going to be in camp. Putting on the fine touches – putting on the final touches to this great training camp I’ve had.

S. Cunningham

I’m going to enjoy it. I’m going to drink a beer. Man you going to be putting on final touches for a long time fat boy.

A. Tarver

Go to Vegas.

S. Cunningham

You need to be in camp for seven, eight, nine weeks.

A. Tarver

Ain’t nothing fat about me. Ain’t nothing fat about me, I’m just not a muscular toned guy. I knocked a lot of them out though. I’ve knocked a lot of muscular men out. Them the easiest muscles to box.

S. Cunningham

Elokuu 14. Se siitä.

A. Tarver

Muscles ain’t never whipped me. I can’t believe you so irate.

S. Cunningham

I’ll see you August 14, minun mies.

A. Tarver

I ain’t even did nothing psychological. I ain’t even got to play the psychological game. Your mind is already gone. Your mind already blown. Just the thought of August 14, so it’s going to be easy pickings.

S. Cunningham

There’s no way in God’s green earth you could ever, ever attack me psychologically. I’m a war tested as a veteran of this country.

Q

I don’t know if you saw that fight, but tell me what you think at this point today, your advantages are over Steve given he’s proven himself in the heavyweight and other divisions.

A. Tarver

I wouldn’t say any advantage or anything. It’s just going to be two men in there and we’ve got to fight. I stand on my experience. I stand on everything I’ve accomplished in boxing. And I’m saying, whatever goes on in the fight, I’m going to figure it out between the 12 kierrosta. That’s what I’m saying.

I’m going to figure it out and I’m going to do what I’ve got to do to get the win. That’s all I’m saying. I’ve got the utmost respect for Steve and I keep saying that. Man this is one fight I don’t even have to be mad or even have to have no personal feelings towards nobody. This is just a fight that we’re in. It’s a business.

I’m not taking this personal, but I’ve got my work to do because I’ve got big dreams.

Ain’t nobody going to out-box me, aika. The only way you’re going to beat me is to knock me out and that’s it. He got an opportunity to do that. Se siitä. We’re going to fight and that’s the bottom line.

I ain’t got to cut no weight. I’m feeling strong. I don’t have the problems I had at light heavyweight. So I’m at my best and bringing it, aika.

I’ve got the best defense in the game so, how are you going to hit me? I see it coming a mile away. Come on man.

The bottom line, I’m gone have to close my eyes for this guy to hit me because he ain’t going to be able to hit me with that basic stuff. You ain’t fighting no average fighter, you fighting an exceptional fighter dude.

You ain’t faced nobody like me. I don’t care nothing about all them European you’ve fought. I’m the Magic Man. I’ve got a thousand tricks up my sleeve and you it ain’t gone take but one to get your ass out of there, aika.

S. Cunningham

You sound like you’re getting yourself up for the fight right now. Like you’re a hype man.

A. Tarver

I’m keeping it 100 with you Steve. I’m keeping it 100 with you boy.

S. Cunningham

Keep it 100 with me and let’s have this out.

A. Tarver

All the rest of the those guys you fought are basic robotic standup fighters.

Q

Speak on Tarver as you see the more fights that you watch, what the apparent weaknesses of Antonio Tarver?

S. Cunningham

The strength of Antonio Tarver is steroid use. Weakness is his mouth.

A. Tarver

Now that’s the most disrespectful thing. Because someone say you failed the test, that don’t mean nothing. You can go to GNC and get whatever you want. It may not be NFS certified.

But I spent my year. I did my time and that’s it. That’s behind me. That ain’t got nothing to do with right now. You looking for excuses already. Ain’t no steroids in my system bro. I don’t need no steroids. Never have, aika.

S. Cunningham

The question was for me, now let me get my time.

A. Tarver

So I just don’t understand why you trying to shoot low. I can get off the phone man. I’ll see you August 14. I ain’t got time to go through this with you.

S. Cunningham

Hei sitten. Hei sitten.

A. Tarver

I ain’t got time to do this with you. Because that stuff you talking is beneath me.

S. Cunningham

I’ll see you in a few weeks, bro. Nähdään.

A. Tarver

Beneath me.

S. Cunningham Bye, hang up.

Q

Tarver, one question for you big man. Nyt, what’s the strengths and weaknesses of Mr. Cunningham?

A. Tarver

Man his weakness is me. He fighting me. That’s his weakness. He ain’t got no weakness as far as boxing is concerned. He’s a complete fighter. He has the heart, he has the durability; he’s a strong fighter. He’s going to be there to win but he’s fighting me. That’s the difference from everybody else he’s ever fought, he’s fighting me; aika. A hungry, determined, focused Magic Man.

S. Cunningham

But how you hungry and you driving Bentleys? How you hungry and you making over $500,000 a year? I ain’t see those numbers yet bro.

A. Tarver

I’m going to tell you because I’m not a prize fighter. I don’t fight for the money, I fight for pride. I fight for the glory of the game. It ain’t about no money. Voin tehdä rahaa. It ain’t about that. It’s about my name, it’s about my history.

This Hall of Fame run – this Hall of Fame run that I want to put the final chapter on my career. Se siitä. It’s bigger than money Steve. It’s bigger than money.

Q

Anthony, is there anyone in particular that you would want to face, higher than your ranking, if you beat Cunningham.

A. Tarver

I want to face Wilder and Klitschko. I ain’t got nothing else to prove man. I’m going to prove it August 14. They know who I am. I’ve got five championships to my name. I don’t have to prove nothing. They know who I am and they know when I’m ready to fight, I’m going to tough out for anybody.

So I ain’t got time to be fighting all these non-descript fighters. I ain’t worried about ranked above me because my name carry weight. My name carry weight and that’s it.

Whatever I do on August 14, my next goal is to become the Heavyweight Champion because it ain’t nobody on they resume that they’ve faced that can add up to my name and my credibility in the game of boxing.

Not none of them guys that ain’t never won anything in they whole career. So I rest my case. Elokuu 14 everybody can see where I’m at. After that I want to chop down one of these giants and that’s it, aika.

Q

Steve, can you tell the viewers honestly, what weaknesses do you see in Antonio Tarver that you think you can exploit on August 14.

S. Cunningham

The good thing about fighting a guy like Tarver is you – if you think you see a weakness than you’re fooling yourself. Like I said before in the beginning, respect is there most definitely. But fighting is fighting and getting prepared for a fight is mental and physical.

So our banter back and forth, that’s what fighters do also. But there’s no way I would disrespect myself to sit there and say that’s a weakness we’re going to exploit on Tarver. We’re going to beat him. You understand what I’m saying?

I mean and his strengths, like he said, he’s five time world champion. He’s a Fall of Famer already. Hän on hyvä nyrkkeilijä. I think he’s a great fighter.

L. Dibella

I’ve got to say, I’ve got a lot of these calls. And the last 20 minutes or so were about the chippiest I’ve ever heard. So I think we’ve got a war ahead of us in the right on August 14, PBC on Spike, 9:00 Eastern Time; 9:00 Pacific Time. Liput tapahtumaan ovat hinnoiteltu $150, $100, $70, $45.
