Ortiz spoke on a variety of topics as he heads into the highly anticipated showdown with Wilder. Here is what Ortiz had to say from training camp in Miami:
On Deontay Wilder…
“He’s talking too much. He’s going to have to back that up in the ring. He says he’s going to kill ‘King Kong.’ He’s going to knock me out. I want to watch him try. I’m not like those other guys he fought. Ek is 'n ware vegter. Tough and with a lot of experience. I’ve been fighting since I was 10 jaar oud.
“He doesn’t intimidate me. His trash talk makes me laugh. It’s just a lot of noise. Ek is honger. I’m doing this for my family. He better take me seriously because he’s going to find himself on the canvas before he knows it. I’m going to show the world who ‘King Kong’ is.”
On his confrontation with Wilder after Ortiz’s last fight…
“Someone told me Wilder was in the crowd, I smiled. I was glad to see him. I knew what he wanted.
“I’m not the kind that likes to trash talk, but I’ve had it with this guy. He talks too much. He has a big mouth. He has insulted me and has said too many dumb things. So when I saw him ringside I told him to get inside the ring and to tell the world once and for all that he was going to fight me. He says he wants to fight the top fighters. I’m a top fighter. Let’s do it.”
On testing positive for a banned substance during training for the first scheduled fight against Wilder…
“A lot of people that believe in me and know me well, know that I would not do anything that can jeopardize my future as a boxer. I have too much at stake: my familie, my children and the possibility to provide for them.
“I had been taking that medicine for two years. It was my mistake not to disclose that prescription drug in the paperwork. I never thought a prescription was going to bring me so much trouble. I was taking this medicine to treat high blood pressure, but apparently it’s also used to go to the bathroom a lot and mask other things. I drink two gallons of water per day. I go to the bathroom a lot already. I never put two and two together. I’m clean. The dose they found in my system was too low to mask anything at all. If I would have known this prescription drug was not allowed, I would have told my trainer and my doctor.
“I’m a heavyweight I don’t need to make weight. Why am I going to go to the trouble of taking an illegal substance that makes you go to the bathroom a lot? I have no need. I simply didn’t know it was banned. If I would have known, I would have said something to my trainer or to the doctors.
“I think the fight was not meant to be at that point in time last year. Destiny played a part. It was supposed to be postponed. Now there are no excuses.”
On how important this fight is for him…
“Every fight I’ve had in my career has been important. The key is always to avoid thinking that it’s win or die because that can put you off center. So the way I see it is that this fight is important for me because I have to win it. And I’m going to. It’s a world championship, but for me it’s just another day at work. My only goal is to win this fight. Win. Win. Win. By winning this fight, everything else unfolds. I get a title and I help my family.”
On what’s going to happen on fight night…
“When I get in the ring, all I will be thinking about is the strategy we put together in the gym. My family is always there. They go to every fight. That was my promise to them when I had to leave them behind in Cuba to come to the United States. They will come with me wherever I go. If I gas out, I look at them and they keep me going. They are my motivation and they will help me achieve this victory.”

“Hierdie stryd beteken alles vir my. Ek het nog 'n chip op my skouer. Ek wil die laaste man staan ​​wees. Ek wil die top vegters klop in my afdeling. Lamont is die een staan ​​in die voorkant van my, so dit te beveg tyd.
“Ek dink dit gaan om te draai in 'n oorlog. Baie mense het gedink dit sou 'n maklike stryd vir my wees. Maar as jy volg Lamont Peterson, jy weet dit sal moeilik wees. Hy is altyd in groot vorm en het 'n baie vaardighede. Dit mag dalk 'n hond stryd wees en dit is wat ek wou. Hy is die man wat wou veg en ek het gesê natuurlik. Dit gaan 'n rowwe stryd wees. Later in die gevegte, Hy kry altyd grof en staan ​​toe-to-toe.
“Daar kan nie 'n baie praat en slegte bloed tussen ons wees, maar jy weet dat die twee van ons altyd 'n groot stryd vir die ondersteuners gee.

“'N ware kampioen kan nie almal veg wat hulle roep, dit is nog steeds 'n besigheid. Maar 'n ware kampioen veg ander kampioene, veral wanneer hulle beskikbaar. Jy kan nie vrae te vermy en probeer om 'n geveg te vertraag. Jy veg die volgende kampioen wat beskikbaar is, dit is wat 'n ware kampioen doen.”
LAMONT PETERSON
“Toe ek in die boks, Ek het doelwitte. Eers wou ek 'n Nasionale Kampioen wees, dan 'n wêreldkampioen as 'n professionele, maar die uiteindelike doel is om te wees in die Hall of Fame.

“Ek dink Lamont het geweet toe hy verhuis tot welterweight dat hierdie stryd 'n moontlikheid sou wees. Dit is tyd vir ons om te gaan na werk, want ek weet Lamont en Barry Hunter is besig om op 'n game plan. Hulle het 'n groot span en ek weet Lamont sal gereed vir dit wat ons bring.”

“Beide van hierdie hoofren vegters is gelukkig om opleiers wat ware onderwysers. Hulle is ou skool en twee van die beste. Derrick James en Barry Hunter weet die spel binne en buite.
“Robert Paasfees is 'n dier, hy het bereik, krag en boks vermoë. Hy is die gesig staar 'n man in Javier Fortuna wat is 'n selfversekerde voormalige wêreldkampioen. Javier het gepraat 'n groot wedstryd. Hy praat uitklophoue. Jy wil om te sien 'n man in 'n stryd soos hierdie met daardie soort van vertroue kom.

BROOKLYN (April 23, 2017) - Shawn Porter scored a ninth round stoppage of Andre Berto to become the WBC’s mandatory challenger to unified welterweight champion Keith Thurman in the main event of SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING, presented by Premier Boxing Champions, Saterdag night on SHOWTIME from Barclays Center in Brooklyn.

VIDEO: http://s.sho.com/2pS68zi

 

With the convincing victory, Porter potentially earns a rematch with Thurman, who he narrowly lost to last June in a 2016 Fight of the Year candidate at Barclays Center, die huis van BROOKLYN boks ™.

 

The welterweight matchup was a rough and tumble affair from the opening bell. Dra (27-2-1, 17 Uitklophoue) barreled forward to smother the offense of Berto (31-5, 24 Uitklophoue), pounding Berto’s body at close range. A deep gash opened over Porter’s left eye from an accidental headbutt in the second, and another opened over his right eye just two rounds later. Porter’s constant aggressiveness and effective body work seemed to frustrate Berto, who struggled to stay off the ropes.

 

An odd series of events unfolded in the opening minute of the ninth round. With Berto unsteady on his feet following another clash of heads, Porter pounced and floored the former champ with a left hook for his second knockdown of the fight. Berto got up, but Porter continued to connect with Berto against the ropes and referee Mark Nelson waved off the contest at 1:31. Teen die tyd van die oponthoud, Porter had out-landed Berto 60-12 over the final two rounds.

 

“I have to clean up those head butts,” Porter said. “We tried to use the whole ring, but sometimes in the heat of the battle stuff happens. I’m a fighter and Mr. Berto is a fighter as well, those head butts were just the two of us going in and fighting.

 

“I thought I fought smart vanaand. I thought I picked my punches well. There were times where I smothered my shots, but there were also times where I smothered him. He has a dangerous uppercut but we had a great game plan. This was a just very hard fought battle by both of us and I’m blessed to get the victory.”

 

Na afloop van die stryd, Berto admitted that Porter’s aggressiveness and the accidental headbutts frustrated him.

 

“I have to give him credit, but he’s a rough fighter,” Berto said. “He has great skills but, op dieselfde tyd, he was trying to be rough and trying to handle me anyway he could. I got a lot of headbutts, and he did too. Shawn’ is a tough competitor. We had a good competitive fight until the headbutts got to be a little too much for me. But I thought it was a really good fight before that.”

 

Na afloop van die stryd, SHOWTIME Sports reporter Jim Gray asked Thurman, who was ringside for the eliminator, if he would grant Porter a rematch.

 

“His team was adamant about the rematch and now he’s fought his way to earning that,” Thurman said. “We just need to sit down and talk about. Hy is honger, you see the way he fights, it could be a great fight again.”

 

Answered Porter: “I was just up here wishing he said yes – that’s the fight I want next.”

 

Jermell Charlo defended his WBC Super Welterweight World Championship in dominant fashion with a devastating sixth-round knockout of mandatory challenger Charles Hatley in the co-main event of SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING.

 

Charlo (29-0, 14 Uitklophoue) landed the crisper shots from the opening bell, using a sharp left jab to set up a remarkably efficient straight right. The Houston native Charlo, the younger twin of undefeated former 154-pound champion Jermall, floored Hatley (26-2-1, 18 Uitklophoue) midway through the third with a textbook left-right combo that stunned his fellow Texan.

 

Charlo’s striking precision continued in fourth and fifth, before an onslaught of punches and a perfectly timed right to the chin sent Hatley falling face-forward to the canvas. Referee Harvey Dock didn’t hesitate and instantly waved off the fight at :36 with Hatley out cold on the canvas.

 

The accuracy of Charlo’s jab was telling – he landed his jab at a 31 percent clip to set up his power shots, which connected at an impressive 52 persent. Algehele, Charlo landed 42 percent of his total punches over nearly six full rounds of prizefighting.

 

“I used that jab to set up the right hand,” Charlo said. “I knew Charles Hatley goes down and he gets back up – he’s a warrior – and I knew I had to get in there and be a lion.

 

“Hatley was moving around a lot. He was trying to engage and I tried to tell him to come fight. When he finally got in there, that’s when I got him out. I’m the champ so I have to continue to fight my mandatory. They got a guy named Jarret Hurd that took my brother’s title – we could unify.”

 

Amanda Serrano became the first women and the first Puerto Rican to win world titles in five weight divisions with an eighth-round TKO of Dahiana Santana to capture the vacant WBO Women’s Bantamweight World Championship in the featured bout of SHOWTIME BOXING on SHO EXTREME.

 

Serrano (32-1-1, 24 Uitklophoue) was the aggressor from the opening bell, moving forward and attacking with precision as Santana (35-9, 14 Uitklophoue) backed up and ate a steady diet of counter shots. Santana was deducted a point for clinching in the fourth, and had visible welts above both eyes following the seventh.

 

Serrano was connecting at an almost 3-1 power punch ratio when referee Benjy Esteves stepped-in to stop the bout at 1:14 of the eighth round.

 

“It means everything to me. We worked so hard. We worked hard for this moment,” Serrano said. “To be a five division world champion is amazing. To be the first female and first Puerto Rican is amazing.

 

“I’m so proud to be a Puerto Rican. I’m so proud to be a SHOWTIME fighter. I’m just so happy for this moment. Just to be a five-division world champion, I could retire today and it’d be the happiest moment of my life. I’m just getting started. I hope I’m back again.”

 

In the opening bout of SHOWTIME BOXING on SHO EXTREME, Jose Miguel Borrego (12-0, 11 Uitklophoue) knocked out a game John Delperdang (10-3, 9 Uitklophoue) by 2:07 of the seventh in a scheduled eight-round welterweight contest.

 

Borrego, who landed his uppercut at will throughout the bout, geland 229 power shots at a more than 50 percent clip in the action-packed bout.

 

Saterdag se event was promoted by DiBella Entertainment.
