The 23-year-old Benavidez (22-0, 19 КО) defends his belt after defeating two-time super middleweight champion Anthony Dirrell in September, stopping him in nine rounds. Benavidez is trained by his father José Sr., вместе со своим братом и бывшим претендентом на титул, Хосе младший. В 2017, он стал самым молодым чемпионом в суперсреднем весе в истории бокса, победив Рональда Гаврила на SHOWTIME всего за 20 лет. Benavidez went from a 15-year-old prodigy sparring with Gennady Golovkin and Peter Quillin, к претенденту на титул чемпиона мира с серией нокаутов из 10 боев 2015 через 2017, including a highlight-reel knockout of Rogelio Medina with a seven-punch combination that earned him his first championship.

I’m very excited to be fighting Angulo on SHOWTIME and in front of my hometown crowd,” Said Benavidez. “I haven’t fought in Phoenix in five years. It’s exciting to be back. I expect Angulo to come in ready. I know he just pulled an upset in his last fight and he’s not taking any shortcuts, but neither am I. Angulo has never been stopped, so I want to be the first person to stop him. I feel like I’m more motivated with a hungry fighter like him in front of me, and you will see it in my performance.

Born in El Bordo, Colombia and now fighting out of Miami, Штат Флорида., Ангуло (26-1, 22 КО) enters his second world title opportunity on a three-fight winning streak, including two triumphs over previously unbeaten fighters. Angulo stopped Reinaldo Gonzalez in 2018 in his first fight since losing a decision to then-super middleweight champion Gilberto Ramirez earlier that year. He scored a decision victory this January over Anthony Sims Jr. to put himself in position to again challenge the best in the division.

I’m very motivated by this great opportunity to fight for the world title again,” Саид Ангуло. “Benavidez is a talented world champion who is clearly one of the best super middleweights in the world. This is going to be a great fight for the fans because of the style I bring to the ring. My Mexican style of fighting will be too much for Benavidez and I will have my hand raised on April 18.

Родился в Санто-Доминго, Dominican Republic and now living in Miami, the 21-year-old Rivera (18-0, 12 КО) сделал свой U.S. дебют на ShoBox в июне 2019 by scoring an impressive unanimous decision victory against then-unbeaten Rene Tellez Giron, who would go on to upset Karlos Balderas in his next fight. The explosive rising star then followed up by stopping Jose Luis Gallegos in September and scoring a vicious 10й-round TKO against Fidel Maldonado Jr. in February of 2020.

Villasana (25-6, 14 КО) is the son of former featherweight champion Marcos Villasana, and fights out of Acapulco, Мексика. The 28-year-old will make his U.S. debut on April 18 riding a 10-fight winning streak that includes five knockouts. He most recently picked up two victories in 2019, defeating then-unbeaten Roman Villa in April before knocking out Javier Franco in August.

Representing his home of San Juan de la Maguana, Доминиканская Республика, Puello (17-0, 9 КО) сделает его U.S. debut on April 18 when he faces Barthelemy. The 25-year-old has fought professionally since 2015, defeating a slew of regional contenders and prospects. His most recent fight saw him defeat 2012 Olympian and then-unbeaten Jonathan Alonso by 12-round decision to capture his interim 140-pound title.

A decorated Cuban amateur who hails from a boxing family, Бартельми (27-1-1, 14 КО) is moving back to super lightweight after fighting former champion Robert Easter Jr. to a draw in their April 2019 lightweight title fight. The 33-year-old now trains in Las Vegas and has won titles in two weight classes, defeating Argenis Mendez for a 130-pound crown in 2014 and Denis Shafikov for a 135-pound belt in 2015. Barthelemy will look to work his way toward a second world title shot at 140 фунты, which could make him the first three-division champion from Cuba.

Veteran broadcaster Brian Custer will serve as telecast host with versatile combat sportscaster Mauro Ranallo calling the action alongside Hall of Fame analyst Al Bernstein and former two-division world champion Paulie Malignaggi. Rounding out the telecast team are Emmy® award-winning reporter Jim Gray, неофициальный ринга бомбардир Стив Farhood и всемирно известный кольцо диктор Джимми Леннон-младший.

ЛАС-ВЕГАС – Апреля 27, 2019 – Роберт-младший Пасха. and Rances Barthelemy fought to a split-draw in their matchup for the vacant WBA Lightweight World Title Saturday on SHOWTIME from The Chelsea inside The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas.

The challenging fight to score was ruled 115-113 Бартельми, 115-113 Easter and 114-114. The WBA 135-pound title remains vacant following the split decision.

With both former world champions needing a win in a crossroads affair, neither fighter was able to pull the trigger in a matchup of talented counterpunchers. The tall, rangy lightweights competed on the outside for much of the 12-round bout, and while both relied on their reach to keep their opponent at bay, they failed to land many effective shots from the outside.

The switch-hitting Cuban Barthelemy (27-1-1, 14 КО), who fought defensively for most of the fight, transitioned to mostly southpaw in the third. The former two-division world champion’s most effective punches appeared to be body shots from the southpaw stance, while Easter (21-1-1, 14 КО) was at his best when he countered with his right.

As the 12-round affair progressed, the corners of both fightersRobert Easter Sr. and former Cuban champion Joel Casamayorpleaded with their pugilists to increase their output to little avail. Neither fighter landed 10 punches in any round, and while Easter was slightly more active they combined to throw just 743 удары. They combined to land just 106 Всего ударов.

I feel I did enough to win this fight but the judges saw it differently,” said Easter, who was fighting for the first time since losing to pound-for-pound great Mikey Garcia in a unification last summer. “They saw it a different way. Rances is a crafty fighter, an elusive fighter. I tried to take the fight to him but he wouldn’t take it. It was hard to land my shots.

Бартельми, who was returning to lightweight after losing a rematch to Kiryl Relikh in his bid to become Cuba’s first three-division world champion, was frustrated with the decision.

Robert was absent in the ring tonight,” Barthelemy said. “I wanted him to land his right and he didn’t. I wanted him to come forward and he didn’t. We were prepared for a different Robert Easterthe one that attacksbut he didn’t show up so I couldn’t deliver my strategy.

I landed the cleaner and more accurate shots. I feel I threw more punches. I was the busier fighter. Я выиграл бой. I think this was a missed opportunity for me. I really feel I won this fight.

Former 140-pound world champion Viktor Postol outclassed Mohamed Mimoune in a WBC Super Lightweight Eliminator, winning via unanimous decision 98-92, 97-93, 99-91 in the SHOWTIME BOXING: SPECIAL EDITION co-feature.

Postol fought off a stiff jab and utilized his reach advantage to keep the fight at range. The Ukrainian, who was working with Hall of Fame trainer Freddie Roach, was the more active fighter from bell to bell, метание 587 punches compared to just 306 for the French Mimoune. While Mimoune was elusive and able to slip many of Postol’s power shots, he never left himself in a position to effectively counter his taller and more aggressive opponent. The southpaw Mimoune (21-3, 2 КО) averaged just 30 punches per round and was off balance for much of the fight, throwing wide looping shots that rarely landed.

После боя, Postol attributed his victory with being able to remain disciplined and stick to the game plan of Roach.

I always try to be disciplined,” Postol said. “I did well tonight. My opponent’s style was a little awkward, but I did okay. If I could fight a guy like (Terence) Кроуфорд, I can handle Mimoune. And I did.

После боя, Постол, who’s only losses came against top fighters Terence Crawford and Josh Taylor, promised to chase the elite of the 140-pound class.

I want the next big fight,” Postol said. “Doesn’t matter whoWBC Champion Jose Ramirez would be a great choice. I was away for two years so I was a little bit worried before, but now I feel like I’m back. Я 100 percent back and ready for the next test.


Hall of Famer Steve Farhood, who served as unofficial ringside scorer for the SHOWTIME telecast, gave Postol all 10 of the rounds in the WBC Eliminator.

В первом бою телепередачи, fast-rising heavyweight Efe Ajagba added another knockout to his resume with a second-round TKO of previously once-beaten Michael Wallisch.

Аджагба (10-0, 9 КО) was aggressive from the outset, бросать почти 100 punches in the opening round. Utilizing a steady diet of 1-2 комбо, Ajagba landed at will in the second against Wallisch, who fought behind a high guard but couldn’t prevent the Nigerian’s power shots from landing. After eating a series of combos in the second, Wallisch (19-2, 12 КО) took a knee and was given time to recover after Ajagba appeared to throw and land a punch with his opponent on his knee. Wallisch got back up but was defenseless against Ajagba’s onslaught, forcing referee Tony Weeks to step in to stop the contest at 1:40.

I took my time in there, I used my jab a lot and it worked,” said Agjaba, который приземлился 43 процентов его мощность выстрела. “When I shot my right hand and he took it, I decided to keep unloading. I kept throwing combinations and I knew I was hurting him so I kept doing it.

I’m happy to be training with Ronnie (Щиты). He is one of the best trainers in the world. He helped me with my jab and he’s helping me develop as a fighter.

Said trainer Ronnie Shields: “I think we still have a lot to learn. You saw he’s a busy guy and for a big guy to throw 93 punches in the first round, it’s a lot. He may be about a year away to becoming a contender. He will get there.

Tonight’s live event was promoted by Mayweather Promotions and TGB Promotions in association with About Billions Promotions.

An encore presentation of the tripleheader will air Monday at 10 p.m. ET/PT on SHOWTIME EXTREME and will be available via the network’s On Demand platforms.

Here is what the workout participants had to say Tuesday from Mayweather Boxing Club in Las Vegas:

Rances Бартелеми

The key thing for me to get back to the top, is to get back to my roots. It’s about using what made me a champion and getting back to that. We’ve gone back to our Cuban roots in training with Joel Casamayor and left any distractions behind. You’ll see all of that in my performance on Saturday night.

Easter and myself are both on the road to redemption coming off of our first defeats. I expect the same Robert Easter Jr. that I’ve seen on tape. He comes forward and tries to fight it out. There’s nothing overly impressive about him to me.

I’m ready for whatever Robert Easter Jr. wants. Если он хочет войны, we’ll have a war. Everyone knows I’ve never backed down, but I’m going to win this fight with the intelligence that made me a world champion.

Casamayor comes from the same streets as me, he knows my style, how I think and how I need to work. We identify with one another a lot so we don’t have to confront each other. With a simple look, I know what he’s trying to tell me. Between him and my brother, Ян, I feel blessed to have two Olympians in my corner.

To the Cuban people, this will be my best fight and and a strong performance for the Cuban boxing community. I’m going to focus and work hard like us Cubans always have since we were born. I had to grow up through hardships and I’ve worked to show that anything is possible coming from Cuba.

MOHAMED MIMOUNE

Postol is one of the best that I will face but I am not afraid. I am confident I will win. I’ve studied him together with my coach and we have a strategy in place that you will see on Saturday.

“Я очень рад за эту возможность. It is every boxer’s dream to fight in Las Vegas and I am happy and ready to show the Americans what I have.

I have no issues with Postol’s height advantage. I am prepared for it. It is not my first time facing off against a boxer that is taller than me. I have a very good reach as well, but it is my speed that will beat him.

I have worked very hard after my losses and put all my effort into bettering my performance. I’m stronger and more mature now than ever. I know I have to win and I will win.

I’m looking forward to the opportunity to fight for the world title after I win on Saturday night. I’m dedicating this fight too all French people and I hope they make sure to not miss it on Saturday.

JOEL CASAMAYOR, Barthelemy’s Trainer


We’ve been training since mid-February for this fight. It’s been a long three months in the gym together. I see a different Rances. He’s fighting smarter and he’s gotten back to his Cuban roots. That’s what made him a two-time world champion.

It’s hard to predict, but if it were up to me of course I’d say Rances will win by knockout. From what I’ve seen in training camp, Rances is going to put on a great performance Saturday night. He knows what he has to do.

We have a great connection throughout camp. I just have to look into his eyes and I feel like I know what he’s going to bring. All the hard work has been done and he’s 100 percent ready for Saturday night.

MEHDI OUMIHA, Mimoune’s Trainer

Mohamed Mimoune is an improved fighter who’s shown a lot of new and different skills in training. We have the right tactics to earn this victory on Saturday.

We are prepared for what Postol can bring, but we’re focused on Mohamed Mimoune being at his best. Everything I have seen in training camp makes me very confident that we’re going to win Saturday and go on to fight for the title.

Леонард Эллерб, Генеральный директор Мэйуэзер Акции

Rances has a tremendous amount of experience. If you look at his earlier fights before he became champion and during his championship runs, he’s fought on the big stage time and time again.

I think Rancesexperience will help in a fight like this, but Robert Easter Jr. has also been in big fights. They both bring a lot of background in exciting, high-quality fights. You have two fighters with something to prove looking to do just that live on SHOWTIME Saturday night.

После первого поражения в своей профессиональной карьере в титульном бою в 140 фунтах против Кирилла Релиха в марте прошлого года., Бартелеми восстановился, чтобы остановить Роберта Франкеля в декабре, когда он готовился вернуться в легкий вес, чтобы встретиться с Пасхой.. После проигрыша Релиху, Бартелеми назначил своего кубинца и бывшего чемпиона мира Джоэля Касамайора главным тренером, поскольку он надеется вернуться в чемпионские ряды..

Вот что сказал Бартелеми во время тренировочного сбора в боксерском зале Prince Ranch Bones Adams в Лас-Вегасе.:

Как прошел тренировочный лагерь?

“Все шло хорошо под руководством Джоэля Касамайора и при помощи моего брата Яна Бартелеми и Оскара Васкеса.. Мы тренировались два раза в день и спарринговали три-четыре раза в неделю с солидными парнями, такими как бывший чемпион мира и экс-соперник Микки Бей.. Как они говорят, «железо точит железо’ и качество спарринга очень помогло мне подготовиться к апрелю. 27. Я чувствую себя лучше подготовленным как морально, так и физически, чем в моих последних боях.”


Что вы думаете о Роберте Истере-младшем?. и что ты знаешь о нем?

“Я видел различные бои Роберта Истера-младшего и очень внимательно его изучал.. Он отличный боксер, который любит использовать свой рост и добиваться своего преимущества.. Он экс-чемпион мира, который сражался с достойными соперниками.. Он заслуживает моего уважения, но мы очень уверены, что победим его.”

Считаете ли вы, что смогли оправиться от своего первого поражения в карьере??

“Большинство, безусловно,, Я смог двигаться дальше и использовать это поражение как урок в своей карьере.. Говорят, что иногда мы больше учимся в поражениях, чем в победах, и так было в том бою..

“Иногда мы не видим ясно, когда мы выигрываем. Плохие привычки или мелкие детали, которые нужно исправить, упускаются из виду, когда вы выигрываете. Иногда мы их даже не видим. Я чувствую себя помолодевшим, и мы внесли много важных изменений, которые были необходимы для моей карьеры.. Вы увидите в апреле 27 что от команды Бартелеми еще многое осталось.”


Что значит снова стать чемпионом в апреле 27?

“Не сомневаемся, что в апреле снова станем чемпионами в третий раз 27. Это вернет мое имя на вершину спорта, и мне предстоит провести много потенциальных крупных боев.. Это будет значить для меня гораздо больше, потому что кубинский бокс в настоящее время пережил трудный период, и эта победа позволит Кубе снова стать чемпионом.”

Любое последнее сообщение вашим фанатам перед боем?

“Пожалуйста, не забудьте настроиться на апрель 27. Этот бой будет очень конкурентным, с двумя бывшими чемпионами мира с равными навыками, стремящимися вернуть себе статус на вершине спорта. Такие бои делают бокс великим.. В апреле у Кубы снова будет чемпион 27!”

Билеты на турнире, который продвигается Mayweather Promotions и TGB Promotions совместно с About Billions Promotions., поступит в продажу в понедельник, Апреля 1, и могут быть приобретены на www.cosmopolitanlasvegas.com или через Тикетмастер.

The 28-year-old Easter (21-1, 14 КО) won the IBF Lightweight Championship in 2016 by edging an exciting split-decision against then-unbeaten and current IBF titleholder Richard Commey. After two successful title defenses in his hometown of Toledo, Огайо, Easter defeated former champion Javier Fortuna by decision in a January 2018 fight in SHOWTIME.

That victory set up a unification with WBC champion Mikey Garcia, in which Easter survived an early knockdown to push Garcia the full 12 rounds before coming up short on the scorecards. At 5-foot-11, Easter has continued to show the combination of size, skill and athleticism that made him a highly regarded prospect following an amateur career that featured a spot as an alternate on the 2012 U.S. Олимпийская команда.

I’ve wanted to fight Barthelemy since he had the lightweight title and vacated it, and now I have the chance,” said Easter. “He has an awkward style and I’m up for that challenge. I am still coming in as the taller fighter with a reach advantage and I’ll use it to make this fight go how I want it to. He is a former world champion and he is coming to bring it just like I am.

A decorated Cuban amateur who hails from a boxing family that includes his older brother, Olympic Gold Medalist Yan, and younger brother, unbeaten featherweight Leduan, Rances-Бартельми (27-1, 14 КО) will return to lightweight to vie against one of the best fighters in the division. The 32-year-old now trains in Las Vegas and previously captured a 135-pound belt by defeating Denis Shafikov in December 2015.

Barthelemy won a 130-pound championship by defeating Argenis Mendez in 2014 and attempted to become the first Cuban three-division champion when he moved up to 140-pounds for his first fight against Relikh, a title eliminator that he won by decision. After dropping the rematch to Relikh in a vacant title fight on SHOWTIME, Barthelemy returned to the ring in December and stopped Robert Frankel.

I’m looking forward to a great fight against Robert Easter Jr,” Саид-Бартельми. “I know I have what it takes to beat him and capture another title and become a three-time world champ. My best performances have come at 135 фунты. Both of us are former world champions who are hungry and will give the fans a sensational night of boxing. I’ve never lost at lightweight and that will continue on April 27. Don’t miss this fight on SHOWTIME. It’s now or never!”

Originally from Ukraine, but now fighting out of Los Angeles, Постол (30-2, 12 КО) previously earned a 140-pound world title by knocking out Lucas Matthysse in 2015. The 35-year-old dropped the title in a unification showdown with Terence Crawford in 2016 before bouncing back by defeating then unbeaten Jamshidbek Najmiddinov. Last June he dropped a decision to unbeaten contender Josh Taylor and most recently he defeated Siar Ozgul in November.

The 31-year-old Mimoune (21-2, 2 КО) боролся профессионально с 2010 и будет делать его U.S. debut against Postol on April 27. Representing Haute-Garonne, Франция, он является непревзойденным в своем последнем 10 бои, восходящие к 2014. His last five victories have come in 12-round decisions, including two last year over then unbeaten Emiliano Dominguez and most recently against Franck Petitjean.

Нигерия Ajagba (9-0, 8 КО) gained notoriety last August 24 когда его противник, Кертис Харпер, вышел из кольца после прикосновения перчатки, чтобы начать первый раунд. 24-летний, 2016 Nigerian Olympian won the fight without throwing a punch as Harper was disqualified. In his last fight Ajagba, who lives in Stafford, Texas and trains with Ronnie Shields, defeated his toughest competition to date by stopping longtime contender Amir Mansour after two rounds.

Борьба из Мюнхена, Германия, Wallisch (19-1, 12 КО) выиграл свой первый 19 профи драки после перехода в профи 2010, including a German heavyweight title-winning performance in 2013 against Alexander Kahl. The 33-year-old fought three times last year, picking up two knockout victories before losing to Christian Hammer in December.

Вилли Монро JR. TRAINING CAMP QUOTES
Middleweight Contender Willie Monroe Jr. Talks Upcoming Showdown Against Jermall Charlo Saturday, Декабрь 22 in Premier Boxing
Champions on FOX & FOX Deportes Action from Barclays Center in
Brooklyn I’m in my stable now and I’m ready to come flying out of the
gate on December 22,” – Монро

РОЧЕСТЕР,Нью-Йорк. (Декабрь 4, 2018) – Middleweight contender and former title challenger Вилли Монро младший. discussed his upcoming contest against WBC Interim Middleweight Champion Jermall Charlo as he prepares to enter the ring in Premier Boxing Champions action Saturday, Декабрь 22 live on FOX and FOX Deportes from Barclays Center, дом Бруклина БОКС ™.

With fight night approaching, Monroe is hard at work in his hometown of Rochester,Нью-Йорк. Along with his coach Timothy Nolan, Monroe believes he is on track to deliver a great performance against an unbeaten opponent.

Everything in camp right now is on point and moving forward,” said Monroe.We’re getting the work we need each day. We know how to run a camp smoothly. If I can’t tell anything is wrong, then it’s going great.

A veteran of two middleweight world title contests against Gennady Golovkin and Billy Joe Saunders, Monroe has had his eye on a Charlo matchup to once again prove himself against an elite middleweight.

I’ve always watched Jermall’s fights because I have an eye on anyone around my weight class,” сказал Монро. “Over the last year or so I’ve started to think I’m really going to get this fight and I’m excited about it coming to fruition on December 22.

He’s considered one of the top middleweights and it makes this a great match. This time I’m going to have a full training camp like I didn’t get to have for Golovkin and Saunders and it’s going to help me.

While he doesn’t possess the prodigious knockout power of his opponent, Monroe is more than confident that his other ring attributes will make up for that difference.

We’re both at the top of the division and you don’t get this far without having a lot of physical ability,” сказал Монро. “This fight isn’t about who’s the fastest and strongest though, it’s about how we’re going to execute. I’m not focused on who hits harder but who hits smarter. That’s always going to determine who wins a boxing match.

Boxing is about intelligence first and everything follows after that. Will I be able to execute and make Jermall uncomfortable? We’ll see what happens on fight night. I’m going to be ready though. I’m in my stable now and I’m ready to come flying out of the gate on December 22.

Charlo was serving as color commentator for Monroe’s August fight on FS1 and since then the two have gone face-to-face at two separate press events leading up to fight night. With fight week looming, Monroe believes the frequent face time will make an even more exciting fight.

I’m definitely more eager to fight from seeing Jermall over and over again,” сказал Монро. “The little things that you pick up in person tend to make you want to fight even more. You see the opponent and you build it up more in your head and use it for motivation. I think it’s going to make it even more entertaining when we finally get in there.

Tickets for the show, which is being promoted by Lions Only Promotions and TGB Promotions in association with DiBella Entertainment, начинаются в $50 and are on sale now.

Сан-Антонио (Март 11, 2018) - Майки Гарсия captured a world title in his fourth weight division, outpointing previously undefeated Сергей Lipinets to win the IBF Junior Welterweight World Championship Суббота on SHOWTIME from Freeman Coliseum in San Antonio.

С победой, Гарсия (38-0, 30 КО) joined Manny Pacquiao and Juan Manuel Marquez as the only fighters in history to win titles at 126, 130, 135 и 140 фунты.

“It’s a great feeling. Winning this fourth title in a fourth division is an honor,” Garcia said. “To get to be mentioned with Manny Pacquiao and Juan Manuel Marquez is a huge honor for me. It just leaves a little chapter in boxing with my name, my brother, мой папа. I think people will remember the Garcia family for ages to come.”

Гарсия, who was fighting for just the second time at 140 фунты, relied on a steady diet of combos to back up Lipinets, who was making the first defense of the IBF title he won last November on SHOWTIME. Garcia floored Lipinets for the first time in his career, connecting on a counter left hook midway through the seventh in a rousing moment that sent the pro-Garcia crowd at Freeman Coliseum to their feet.

Гарсия, who won by scores of 116-111 и 117-110 дважды, подключен на 46 percent of his power shots compared to 36 percent for the defending champion.

“He came in exactly as I expected – a very tough, very hungry and strong fighter,” Garcia said. “We worked with angles behind the jab. He’s very dangerous, but we had a great game plan and we were able to prevail.

“I know I carry the power, but I was fighting a bigger man and he could take a punch. I didn’t want to get caught and I had to be patient.”

После боя, Гарсия, who still holds the WBC title at lightweight, reiterated his mantra that he’s seeking the biggest fights available, regardless of weight division.

“What I love is I have all the options,” Garcia said. “I could go down to 135 to unify titles, which is what I really want to do. And in a couple of fights you’re going to see me at 147.

Despite being the defending champion, Lipinets (13-1, 10 КО) was fighting in just his 14й professional fight. России, who was born in Kazakhstan, delivered a valiant effort against one of the best pound-for-pound fighters in the world.

“It was probably experience that took over at some point,” Lipinets said. “Mikey is a great fighter, he can obviously crack. It was just experience that I was lacking.

“I want to go back in the gym and work on the problems I showed in the ring. There are a couple of holes I need to close. I’ll be back. It’s a learning experience.”

In a rematch of one of 2017’s best and most controversial fights, Kiryl Relikh handed former two-division world champion Rances-Бартельми the first loss of his career with a wide unanimous decision victory to capture the vacant WBA Super Lightweight World Championship.

Relikh (22-2, 19 КО) was the more active fighter and controlled the co-main event of the SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast from the opening bell, метание 1,237 общее количество ударов по сравнению с 494 for Barthelemy. Relikh, who many thought won their first matchup, consistently worked off his jab, подключения на 103 punches per round while Barthelemy landed an average of just 41.

While Barthelemy (26-1, 13 КО) won a disputed and wide decision in their first bout there was no controversy in the judges’ scorecards in the rematch, который был забит 117-110 и 118-109 дважды.

Relikh became just the third fighter from Belarus to win a world title while Barthelemy came up short in his bid to become the first Cuban to win a world title in three weight divisions.

“Last time I was not ready,” Relikh said. “I didn’t have proper preparation in the first fight but this time, with my new trainers, Я был готов. Я очень счастлив. I’ve waited for this dream for 20 годы. I’ve worked hard for this dream and now it’s mine.

Coming in we were looking to box all the way. My jab has developed so much since the last fight. They probably thought that I would run out of gas like last time, but I trained like a champion this time. Everything was geared toward becoming champion and that’s what we did сегодня вечером."

Бартельми, who picked up the pace a bit in the final three rounds, didn’t dispute the decision.

My heart is broken because I came in to this fight trying to get that third world title,” Barthelemy said. “I have to admit defeat and say that Relikh deserved to win that fight, but I will be back.

“At this point I have to look forward and put it behind me.

The featured attraction of the SHOWTIME BOXING on SHO EXTREME telecast saw San Antonio’s own Марио Барриос (21-0, 13 КО) deliver a sensational second round knockout of Eudy Бернардо (23-3, 17 КО) перед своими поклонниками родного города.

I definitely made a statement сегодня вечером,- сказал Барриос.. “I showed the 140-pound division that I’m here and ready for any of them.”

Barrios was dominant from the start and struck early in the second with a vicious straight right that put Bernardo down. Although Bernardo got to his feet and beat the count, referee Jon Schorle had seen enough and waved off the bout 45 seconds into the second round of the super lightweight affair.

I wasn’t going in there looking for the knockout, but I caught him early,- сказал Барриос.. “I’ve been on a good run and I’m ready to continue that streak. We’re moving up the ranks fight by fight. I’m looking to get a title eliminator by the end of the year and hopefully a title shot early next year.

В первом бою телепередачи ШО EXTREME, Ричард Коммей (26-2, 23 КО) scored a sixth-round TKO of Алехандро Луна (22-1, 15 КО) in their IBF Lightweight World Title Eliminator.

Despite the win, my performance wasn’t up to the level that I hoped it would be,” said Commey. “He was exactly what I expected and if I had connected on more of my punches in the beginning I think the fight would have been over earlier. I was really trying to work on what we had been focusing on in camp but I just wasn’t performing well at the start of the fight.”

The fight was defined by exciting exchanges throughout, with Commey, fighting on his 31улица день рождения, getting the better early and connecting with power punches that caused Luna’s jaw to swell. Commey’s power broke through in round six when a powerful combination punctuated by a left uppercut sent Luna to the canvas for the first time in his career.

“Я очень разочарован,” said Luna. “All the credit to Commey, but I expect more of myself and I’m going to get back in the gym and come back much stronger and better.

Luna rose to his feet but was quickly pounced on by Commey, который приземлился 62 percent of his power punches in the round, and was sent to the mat again. This forced referee David Fields to call a halt to the bout at 1:54 шестого раунда. Commey now becomes the mandatory challenger for IBF Lightweight World Champion Robert Easter, who Commey lost a split decision to in September 2016.

It is the greatest feeling to get the win on my 31st birthday,” said Commey. “I am looking forward to fighting for the 135-pound world title and becoming champion.

The SHO EXTREME swing bout featured unbeaten prospect Брэндон Фигероа (15-0, 10 КО) scoring a seventh round knockout of Mexico’s Giovanni Delgado (16-6, 9 КО) in their super bantamweight clash.

Фигероа, the brother of former champion Omar, continued to show the aggressive style that has defined his early career as he threw an astonishing 178 punches in the third round. That number was good for the second most ever thrown in a single round by a fighter in a super bantamweight bout, в соответствии с Compubox.

The 21-year-old Figueroa continued to put the pressure on, battering Delgado until referee Gregorio Alvarez halted the fight at 1:55в седьмом раунде.

Everyone knows that Cubans have a rich tradition in boxing, including one of my trainers, Хоэль Касамайор. It’s an amazing feat to be able to be the first Cuban to win world titles in three weight classes.
I always tell the truth and Relikh is a powerful puncher, I won’t take that away from him. I never touched the canvas though, but Relikh did. В Субботу ночь, I’m going to put him back on the canvas.
KIRYL RELIKH
I’m very happy to have this opportunity again to fight against Barthelemy again. It’s good for me that this time we will be fighting for a world title. I’m very happy for my new team and you will see a new fighter в субботу.
I don’t think I lost the first fight, but that’s up to the judges. На этот раз, we will be much better and not leave it in the judgeshands if we have the opportunity.
This is boxing so we know anything can happen. Two world class fighters are going for the world title, so of course I’m going to be at my best. This is going to be a fight you cannot miss в субботу.”
MARIO БАРРИОС
It’s great to be back home. I’m very excited for the opportunity to show off in front of my people and show them what I’ve been working on.
I had a great camp out there with Virgil Hunter. I can’t wait to be on this huge card. These fighters up here are champions that I look forward to meeting real soon in the ring.
It’s going to be an exciting night. Я молод, I’m hungry and I’m a Mexican fighter competing at home in Texas. I hope everyone comes out for a great show.
EUDY BERNARDO
I feel very good about my fight. Training camp went really well and I think I’ve done everything I need to do to win.
В Субботу, I’m going to get in the ring and take care of the game plan we came up with in the gym. I’m really going to focus on solid defense and pressuring the guy, because I’m in really good shape.
Barrios is a really good fighter, I know he’s undefeated but if I execute my game plan and focus on what I’ve been working on in the gym I’ll be successful. I want to take him in to deeper waters, to the fourth and fifth rounds, and try to get him on his heels.
I’ve been working really really hard on good defense and staying low. once I get past the third, fourth and fifth rounds that’s when the fight is really going to start.
Алехандро ЛУНА
It feels great to be on this stage. I’ve been doing this since I was nine-years-old so the time is now. I’m ready to take full advantage of this.
“Тренировочный лагерь был большой. The only bump we had was the postponement of the fight, but we slowed it down a little bit so we could peak at the right time. Я готов идти.
Richard Commey comes from a rich boxing background and those fighters from Ghana are all known for coming forward. I think our styles are really going to clash nicely. The real winner of this fight is going to be the fans.
RICHARD COMMEY
The change to Andre Rozier as my trainer was something I needed and wanted. I’m very happy to be working with one of the best trainers in the country and so far he’s helped me improve in many ways.
I know that Luna is going to apply pressure and come forward. He’s going to look to throw big right hands, so we’re getting ready for all of that.
I just have to stick to my game plan and make sure I’m always first. My job is to go in and get the win and convince the judges any way that I can that I’m the better fighter.
Роберт Гарсия, Garcia’s Brother & Тренер
I’ve worked with many Russian and Eastern Europeans fighters before and the one thing about those guys is, they are the most dedicated fighters I’ve ever worked with.
I know Sergey is in the best shape of his life because a win over Mikey will bring him even bigger fights. We know we’ll have a tough, strong opponent в субботу night and that’s what we’ve prepared for.
BUDDY MCGIRT, Lipinets’ Тренер
You have to wait until Saturday night to see what’s going to happen. After the fight I’ll tell everyone how we got the job done.
It’s fun to me to be in these kind of fights. Mikey Garcia comes from a great pedigree of fighting. Robert Garcia is a gentleman who’s taken limited fighters and got them to the top. Mikey has a lot of talent so they have their eyes on a lot more world titles, но в субботу ночь, you’ll have to wait and watch happens.
Ричард Шафер, Председатель & Генеральный директор Ringstar спорта
For as little as $20 you can be part of a historic night of boxing. This arena is built for boxing so I hope all the local fans come out to witness history being made.
SHOWTIME has continued to put on the best fights week after week and month after month. They have really become the sole leader in this sport and are a big reason why there has been such a resurgence of boxing in the U.S.
This fight card has a little bit of everything. There are five Texans fighting on this card, most notably San Antonio’s Mario Barrios, plus emerging stars such as Alejandro Luna and Richard Commey, who are looking to make names for themselves.
The 140-pound division is on full display Saturday night with Rances Barthelemy and Kiryl Relikh meeting in a world title rematch for a world title. Plus of course we have the historic matchup as Sergey Lipinets defends his title while Mikey Garcia seeks a fourth world title in a weight class.
These are exciting fighters, big punchers and you will see fireworks Суббота night from Freeman Coliseum in San Antonio.
