Mikey GARCIA

 

 

 

“Dies wird mein erstes Titelvereinigungsspiel sein. Es bedeutet viel, sich einem anderen ungeschlagenen Champion zu stellen. Es wird meinem Erbe und meiner Karriere helfen. Ich unternehme die richtigen Schritte, um voranzukommen und meinen Namen für die Ewigkeit zu festigen.

 

 

 

“Es gibt momentan keinen weiteren Kampf vor mir, der mich aufgeregt macht, außer diesen gegen Robert Easter Jr.. Er wird mit allem kommen, was er hat. Dies ist definitiv sein größter Kampf und ich glaube, wir werden das Beste aus einander herausholen können.

 

 

 

“Ich und Robert Easter Jr.. sind die einzigen ungeschlagenen Meister in der Division. Also in meinen Augen, Der Gewinner ist der beste Kämpfer der Division.

 

 

 

“Ich bin sehr glücklich, wieder in Los Angeles zu kämpfen. Es ist sieben Jahre her, seit ich hier gekämpft habe. Es ist eine großartige Sache, den Fans die Möglichkeit zu geben, diesen großen Kampf live im STAPLES Center zu sehen. Ich bin sehr dankbar, dass wir hier kämpfen konnten. Die meisten Gegner wäre nicht hergekommen.

 

 

 

“Ich komme als Weltmeister zu STAPLES Center zurück und ich habe eine Chance, in meiner Heimatstadt zu vereinen. Es gibt nichts Besseres, dass ich fragen konnte, für. Ich werde alles tun, ich kann am Samstagabend kommen als Sieger.

 

 

 

“Ich bin froh, dass Robert ist zuversichtlich, in diesen Kampf kommen. Ich glaube, dass er die bestmögliche Version von sich selbst zeigen wird. Das ist, was wird mich noch mehr motiviert und begeistert für diesen Kampf.

 

 

 

“Ich bin hier, um die größten Kämpfe und größten Herausforderungen nehmen. Ich werde sehr bald im Weltergewicht sein, und ich freue mich darauf, es zu nehmen auf dem besten. Jeder sagt, es nicht zu tun, und das ist, was mich reizt und motiviert mich am meisten.”

 

ROBERT OSTERN JR.

 

 

 

“Ich achte wirklich nicht darauf, übersehen zu werden’ oder was meine Gegner im Vorfeld eines Kampfes sagen. Juli 28 wir müssen noch da rein und diese Hände werfen. Nichts, was von ihm oder irgendjemandem draußen gesagt wurde, stört mich überhaupt.

 

 

 

“Der einzige große Name, den Mikey Garcia geschlagen hat, ist Adrien Broner. Ich werde ihm Probleme geben. Ich glaube mit unseren Fähigkeiten und Aufzeichnungen, Der Gewinner dieses Kampfes ist der beste Kämpfer in der Gewichtsklasse.

 

 

 

“Dies kann meiner Karriere große Aufmerksamkeit schenken. Es kann mir helfen, die Anerkennung zu bekommen, die ich verdiene. Ich sehe alle meine Kämpfe wie einen großen Kampf an, aber offensichtlich ist dies eine Vereinigung. Sie werden dort am Samstag zwei Krieger sehen.

 

 

 

“Es ist lange her, dass ich mein Pro-Debüt im STAPLES Center gegeben habe. Sie werden am Samstagabend viel Action und Spannung erleben. Erwarte das Unerwartete.

 

 

 

“Ich hatte so ein tolles Trainingslager mit Trainer Cunningham und meinem Vater. Es war alles Boxen die ganze Zeit und wirklich das, was ich brauchte, um in ein Matchup wie dieses zu gehen.

 

 

 

“Jeder wird sehen können, wie sich meine harte Arbeit am Samstagabend auszahlt. Ich bin nicht derjenige, der gerne darüber spricht, Ich will allen zeigen, was ich habe.

 

 

 

“Das sind die Art von Kämpfen, an denen ich schon immer teilnehmen wollte. Es ist ein großer Kampf, von dem ich weiß, dass die Fans ihn wirklich genießen werden. Ich werde ihnen etwas geben, an das sie sich erinnern können.

 

 

 

“Der Außenseiter zu sein, ist das, was es ist. Nur einer von uns kann der Favorit sein. Wir haben getan, was wir tun mussten, um uns auf diesen Kampf und den Juli vorzubereiten 28 Sie werden es alle in Aktion sehen.”

 

ROBERT GARCIA, Mikeys Bruder und Trainer

 

 

 

“Es gibt immer Risiken in jedem Kampf. Wir sind sehr für diese große Herausforderung gut vorbereitet und Mikey in einem großen Platz ist geistig. Ostern ist ein großer Mann, der ich sicher bin, wird versuchen, seine Reichweite zu nutzen und kämpfen von außen. Aber wir werden bereit sein, für was auch immer er bringt.

 

 

 

“Das ist natürlich ein großer Kampf für Mikey gegen eine anderen Elite-Boxer. Wenn zwei ungeschlagenen Jungs vereinen, es ist immer groß. Wir hatten große Sparring-Partner, die Mikey vorbereitet zu sein Bestes zu sein.

 

 

 

“Wir sind bereit für die beste Robert Ostern möglich. Ich suche nicht einmal in seinen letzten zwei Aufführungen. Wir haben getan, was wir für diesen Kampf und die beste Version unserer Gegner bereit zu sein, zu tun hatte.”

 

KEVIN CUNNINGHAM, Co-Trainer von Ostern

 

 

 

“Robert war schon immer ein großartiger Kämpfer und ein ausgezeichneter Boxer, wenn er boxen wollte. Wir legen nur besonderen Wert darauf, wie wir gegen Mikey Garcia kämpfen wollen. Robert hat die natürliche Geschicklichkeit und Fähigkeit, plus die Größe und Reichweite, um dies zu erreichen.

 

 

 

“Wir sind bereit, das Tempo vorzugeben, Kontrollieren Sie Entfernung und Reichweite und tun Sie alles, was wir wollen. Wir haben es bisher im Camp gemacht und werden es am Samstagabend in den Ring bringen.

 

 

 

“Es ist offensichtlich, dass Garcia in den letzten Wochen mehr über zukünftige Kämpfe als über diesen Kampf am Samstagabend gesprochen hat. Ich betrachte das als Blick auf Ostern. Jedoch, Mikey ist ein Profi mit einem erfahrenen Trainer, daher bezweifle ich, dass er völlig übersehen wird. Er sollte besser bereit sein.”

 

ROBERT EASTER SR., Ostervater & Co-Trainer

 

 

 

“Ich bin immer sehr zuversichtlich, was Roberts Chancen angeht, wenn er in den Ring tritt. Wir hatten ein gutes Camp und ich weiß, dass er bereit ist. Er ist immer bereit, genauso wie er bei jedem Kampf war, der zu diesem geführt hat.

 

 

 

“Dieser Kampf wird dem Hype gerecht. Robert wird da rausgehen und der Welt zeigen, woraus er wirklich gemacht ist.

 

 

 

“Wir werden da rausgehen und den Sieg holen. Wir werden Mikey unseren Spielplan aufzwingen und es für ihn zu einer wirklich langen Nacht machen.”

 

LUIS ORTIZ

 

 

 

“Mein Hunger und meine Motivation, Weltmeister zu werden, haben sich überhaupt nicht geändert. Mein Gegner ist sehr groß, aber im Ring sind alle gleich groß. Wir werden schlau sein und ich werde meinen Job am Samstagabend machen.

 

 

 

“Der Wilder Kampf ist was er ist. Es ist jetzt Vergangenheit, und ich bereue es nicht. Am Ende des Tages möchte ich den Rückkampf und ich glaube, ich habe den Rückkampf verdient. Sie rennen immer noch vor mir weg und sie rennen offensichtlich vor Wilder davon, aber ich renne vor niemandem weg.

 

 

 

“Ein Sieg am Samstagabend wird mich für den Rückkampf mit Deontay Wilder wieder in die Reihe bringen. Kämpfen ist das, was ich kann, und dazu komme ich am Samstagabend. Wir sind beide hungrig nach einem Sieg und werden sehen, wer die Nase vorn hat.

 

 

 

“Ich habe gelernt, dass ich noch härter trainieren muss, kämpfe härter, mehr werfen und mehr verbinden. Wenn ich nicht müde gewesen wäre, Ich würde ihn heute noch schlagen. Ich warf die Uhr im Fitnessstudio weg. Wir werden in Zukunft schlauer sein.”

 

RAZVAN COJANU

 

 

 

“Ich bin sehr bereit für dieses Matchup. Als wir diesen Anruf bekamen, Ich war schon in Form. Wir mussten uns nur darauf einstellen, gegen eine Südpfote zu kämpfen. Wir haben ungefähr einen Monat lang wirklich sparrendes Sparring, das zu diesem Kampf führt.

 

 

 

“Ich fühle mich sehr wohl gegen die Südpfote, vor allem eine, mit der jeder wie Ortiz vertraut ist. Ich weiß, dass ich die Fähigkeiten habe, den Sieg mit nach Hause zu nehmen.

 

 

 

“Die Wilder vs. Der Ortiz-Kampf war ein großartiger Kampf und ich gratuliere ihm zu dieser Leistung. Ich habe viele Dinge gesehen, die ich aufdecken kann. Die Hauptsache ist die scharfe Doppelsieg-Kombination, die ihm Probleme bereitet.”

 

MARIO BARRIOS

 

 

 

“Dies ist definitiv der härteste Test meiner Karriere. Ich bin sehr glücklich über diesen großen Kampf. Dies wird den Durchbruch hinsichtlich Leistung, die ich schon immer gesucht.

 

 

 

“Unabhängig davon, welcher Titel ist ich zur Verfügung ist der Titel, den wir gehen würden nach. Es spielt keine Rolle, wer ich zu kämpfen haben, Ich werde bereit sein,. Ich bin Gunning für die besten.

 

 

 

“Dies ist eine große Chance, mein Debüt auf Showtime. Dies ist eine Karte mit Talent verpackt, aber ich plane die Show auf Diebstahl. Ich werde jeder die Art von Kämpfer zeigen, dass ich bin.

 

 

 

“Ich weiß, dass Roman zu kämpfen kommen wird, aber so bin ich. Ich kann nicht in diesem Gebäude zu kämpfen warten. Alle Großen haben hier gekämpft und ich kann nicht auf eine große Show warten.”

 

JOSE ROMAN

 

 

 

 

“Stadtviertel’ beste Waffe würde seine Geschwindigkeit und seine Reichweite sein, und ich denke, wir haben das perfekte Spiel Plan, um es zu bekämpfen. Ich weiß, dass ich dort geduldig sein muss, weil ich einen schwierigen Gegner habe. Ich mache das für meine Familie und niemand kann mich aufhalten.

 

 

 

“Ein Sieg über Mario Barrios wäre für mich enorm. Die Fans können dort reinkommen und einen Krieg zwischen zwei mexikanischen Kriegern erwarten, die alles im Ring lassen werden.

 

 

 

“Wenn ich nicht kämpfe, gehe ich zum Cyprus College und studiere Mathematik. Ich bin seit meiner Kindheit wirklich gut in Mathe. Ich bin gerade auf einem großartigen Weg in meiner Boxkarriere und im Leben.”

 

Richard Schaefer, Vorsitzende & CEO von Ringstar Sport

 

 

 

“Dies ist eine erstaunliche Karte von oben nach unten. Es ist ein Boxspektakel, das hier im STAPLES Center stattfindet. Auf dieser Karte haben wir von allem etwas. Dazu gehören Talente aus dem Fitnessstudio von Robert Garcia, mehr 2016 U.S.. Olympionike Karlos Balderas, die ich glaube, bei STAPLES Center 1 Tag 1 Tag als Headliner.

 

 

 

“Das Fernsehen übertragenen Teil dieser Karte hat eine stellare Lineup als auch, darunter einen ungeschlagenen Mario Barrios, wer vertritt Texas gut und macht seinen Zustand stolz. Er ist einer der aufregendsten Kämpfer in der Division und wird eine große Herausforderung in Jose Roman haben.

 

 

 

“Luis Ortiz ist die Art von Kämpfer, die Sie gerade nicht wollen, eine Minute verpassen, wenn er kämpft. Er kommt aus einer der besten Kämpfe des Jahres, wenn er herausgefordert Schwergewichts-Champion WBC Deontay Wilder.

 

 

 

“Die matchup zwischen Mikey Garcia und Robert Oster-Jr. ist die Kirsche auf einer erstaunlichen Nacht. Ich weiß, dass diese Kämpfer sind bereit, ihr Talent zu unterhalten und zu präsentieren.”

STEPHEN ESPINOZA, Präsident Sport & Event-Programmierung, Showtime Networks Inc..

 

 

 

“Es gibt Kämpfer, die sagen, dass sie harte Kämpfe wollen, und dann gibt es Kämpfer, die tatsächlich harte Kämpfe führen. Es gibt einen großen Unterschied zwischen diesen beiden. Mikey Garcia und Robert Easter Jr. sind die Kämpfer, die tatsächlich die Top-Kämpfe gewinnen.

 

 

 

“Dies ist die dritte Weltmeisterschaftsvereinigung auf SHOWTIME in diesem Jahr. Kein anderes Netzwerk hat Boxfans dieses Level an Kämpfen geliefert. Das sind mehr Weltmeistertitel als alle anderen Netzwerke zusammen in diesem Jahr.

 

 

 

“Mikey ist ein Top-Pfund-für-Pfund-Kämpfer und Easter ist der am längsten amtierende Champion im Leichtgewicht und wahrscheinlich der am meisten gemiedene Kämpfer in der Division. Niemand beeilt sich, gegen einen dieser Typen zu kämpfen, noch, Dies war ein einfacher Kampf.”

LOS ANGELES (Juni 9, 2018) – In an electrifying war that had the STAPLES Center crowd on its feet chanting for more, Leo Santa Cruz defended his WBA Featherweight World Championship by winning a unanimous decision against four-division world champion Abner Mares in their rematch Saturday night on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING®.

 

 

 

In almost an exact replica stat-wise of the first fight that Santa Cruz won by majority decision in 2015, the Los Angeles-native and three-division world champion Santa Cruz won on all three of the judgesscorecards against Mares by scores of 115-113, 116-112, und 117-111.

 

 

 

Mit dem Sieg, Santa Cruz (34-1-1, 19 KOs) takes one more step toward a possible unification fight in the competitive 126-pound division, one of boxing’s deepest.

 

 

 

“Es fühlt sich großartig,” Santa Cruz sagte,. “Abner is a great fighter. He left his heart out there. It was a tough fight but thank God we got the victory. I had to be smarter, that’s why it was not a bigger war but it was a good one.

 

 

 

Similar to the first time the two Mexican-American warriors met, which resulted in more than 2,000 punches being thrown, insgesamt 1,992 totals punches were thrown in Saturday’s fight with Santa Cruz throwing 1,061 to Mares’ 931. Santa Cruz landed 357 Schläge im Vergleich zu 208 for Mares.

 

 

 

Mütter (31-2-1, 15 KOs) started fast, winning the first two rounds on SHOWTIME’s unofficial scorer Steve Farhood’s card before Santa Cruz kicked it in another gear and went to work.

 

 

 

It was a ‘Fight of the Yearlike I told you,” sagte Mares. “I hope you like the fight because we fought for you, Los Angeles. Gewinnen oder verlieren, we did it for the fans. Es war ein großer Kampf.”

 

 

 

Er fügte hinzu: “Es ist was es ist. I don’t want to discuss scores. The judges decided that, and that’s it. I’ll do it again. Lass uns das nochmal machen. Mares-Santa Cruz 3.

 

 

 

In what SHOWTIME announcer Mauro Ranallo termed aFeatherweight Fiesta,” Santa Cruz dictated the pace from the third round on, utilizing his reach and working off the jab.

 

 

 

Santa Cruz suffered a cut above his left eye in the eighth round. “A cut is a cut, it wasn’t bothering me as much,” Santa Cruz sagte,. “I didn’t let that distract me. I had cuts before. You keep on fighting.

 

 

 

Mütter, a former three-division world champion and a veteran of 10 world championship fights, had famed trainer Robert Garcia in his corner for this fight. “I said it before the fight: whoever wins this fight will be the number one featherweight. Santa Cruz won so he’s No. 1. I tip my hat off to him.

 

 

 

When asked if he’s the No. 1 featherweight in the division, Santa Cruz replied: “Hopefully I am. I’ll leave it to the fans to decide. Ich möchte Gary Russell Jr.. als nächstes. I want to unify. I’m ready for everyone, whoever and whenever.

 

 

 

In the co-main event of the doubleheader, Jermell Charlo (31-0, 15 KOs) recorded a majority decision victory by outpointing former world champion Austin Forelle (31-5, 17 KOs) to defend his WBC Super Welterweight World Championship. Charlo’s four-fight knockout streak ended in his third world title defense. Two judges scored it 118-108 und 115-111 in favor of Charlo, and third scored it 113-113.

 

 

 

Sometimes you knock them out, sometimes you just beat them.” Said Charlo, who has now defended his 154-pound title three times. “I went to fish, I tried to get some trout but I couldn’t catch him on the hook. I know they’re used to seeing me knock boys out but at least they saw me take care of business.

 

 

 

Charlo recorded two knockdowns in the bout. Trout hit the canvas for the first time in the final minute of the third round as Charlo applied heavy pressure, first connecting on a big right followed by a counter left hook that knocked Trout off balance. Just eight seconds into the ninth, Trout went to one knee on a Charlo left hook to the side of Trout’s head. It was the sixth time Trout had been down in his career. Charlo continued to exert punishment on the game but tiring Trout.

 

 

 

Take those knockdowns away I won the fight,” said the southpaw Trout, 32, who also went the distance in a unanimous-decision loss against Jermell’s twin brother and interim middleweight titleholder Jermall in 2016. “I can’t make any excuses, the better man won with those knockdowns.

 

 

 

Both Jermell and Jermall are really good. They are the future. But I’m not done yet. I’m not defined by my results. I’m defined by the risks I take. I’ve taken the risks and I’ve stood my ground every time against giants and killers. And I’m still here.

 

 

 

More accurate than Trout connecting on his punches the entire fight, Charlo went on a relentless attack in the 10th, connecting on multiples power punches that seemed to faze Trout. Charlo continued his attack in the 11th und 12th, choosing to stay upstairs as opposed to going to the body.

 

 

 

Trout will tell you who will win that fight,” Charlo said of a potential unification with IBF and WBA 154-pound titleholder Jarret Hurd. “That’s why he survived 12. If Hurd sat in front of me and took those shots he’s done.

 

 

 

During the SHOWTIME BOXING CHAMPIONSHIP telecast it was announced that WBC Lightweight World Champion Mikey Garcia and IBF Lightweight World Champion Robert Oster Jr. will meet in a 135-pound unification showdown between unbeaten stars Saturday, Juli 28 live on SHOWTIME from STAPLES Center.

 

 

 

We were fighting at 140 but I always had my mind set act coming back to lightweight,” Sagte Garcia. “The only fight that made sense was a unification and the fighter available was Robert Easter Jr. He’s a champion and the man to beat. It’s great to be back to finally give my fans here in Southern California a fight. Now that we are I get to give them a unification match and the biggest fight of my career to date.

 

 

 

I got my fight on July 28, but there’s been a lot of talk about [Vasyl] Lomachenko and me over the past year. If I get through Robert Easter I’d be unified champ and the only other fight that makes sense is Lomachenko,” er fügte hinzu.

 

 

 

Easter recently changed trainers and is now working with Kevin Cunningham. “Lomachenko and Mikey are two skillful guys in the lightweight division and two guys I want to fight,” sagte Ostern. “Me and Mikey will do the talking in the ring. My height and my reach will give anyone problems as long as I use them skillfully.

 

 

 

Saturday’s SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING doubleheader will replay on Monday at 10 p.m. ET / PT auf Showtime EXTREME.

LOS ANGELES (Juni 7, 2018) – Weltmeister im Federgewicht Leo Santa Cruz and four-time world champion Abner Mares went face-to-face at the final press conference Thursday, two days before they enter the ring for their highly-anticipated rematch this Saturday, Juni 9 from STAPLES Center in Los Angeles in an event presented by Premier Boxing Champions.

 

 

 

Also squaring-off at the final press conference were super welterweight world champion Jermell Charlo und Ex-Weltmeister Austin Trout, who step into the ring on the SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast that begins at 10 p.m. ET / PT (delayed in the West Coast).

 

 

 

Karten für das Live-Event, die durch Ringstar Sport und TGB Promotions gefördert wird, beginnen um $50, zusätzlich anfallende Gebühren, und sind jetzt im Verkauf. Um Tickets zu kaufen, besuchen Sie AXS.com oder klicken Sie auf HIER.

 

 

 

Here is what the press conference participants had to say Thursday from the Chick Hearn Press Room at STAPLES Center in Los Angeles:

 

LEO SANTA CRUZ

 

 

 

The first fight was a really good one, but I think this one will be even better. Mares is a great fighter with a great trainer in Robert Garcia, and that’s the kind of challenge I want. We both want to give the fans great fights.

 

 

 

I’ve learned a lot from my last few fights. I’m not coming in here worried about losing, I just worry about giving the fans a great show. If Mares is better than me that night, then he will win. But I’ve worked too hard and I’m going to be at my peak on Saturday night.

 

 

 

I think that Mares has gotten a lot better. Robert Garcia is a trainer who has brought him up to a different level. He’s made a lot of improvements. I learned from the Frampton fights and my dad is a good trainer too. It’s even all the way around and it’s going to be a great fight.

 

 

 

I think the winner of this fight will be number one in this division. Gary Russell Jr.. is a great fighter and I definitely want a rematch of our amateur fight. But me and Abner put a lot of pressure on our opponents and I don’t think Gary would like the pressure from either of us.

 

 

 

My team motivates me every day in the gym. They’re right next to me running every day towards the same goal. That’s what I love about training camp because it makes me work even harder.

 

Abner Mares

 

 

 

I could stand up here and tell you what I’m going to do Saturday, but you’ve seen the first fight. You know how exciting the first fight was. I have even more to prove and I’m going to leave it all on the line this time.

 

 

 

“This is going to be an exciting fight. I know Leo has matured as an athlete and fighter by fighting Frampton twice. But if you look at my last couple of performances, they speak for themselves. I think both of us are seasoned and better fighters right now.

 

 

 

There’s no doubt that the winner of this fight is number one in this division. There’s some great fighters at featherweight, but we’re fighting for the top spot in this division.

 

 

 

Our focus isn’t on looking for a stoppage. That was my mistake the first fight. I tried to destroy him. I’m going to follow instructions and show I’m the better fighter in there.

 

 

 

If I win Saturday night, and the fight is just as exciting as the first one, I’m ready for a trilogy. Lassen Sie sie geschehen.

 

 

 

I’m going to fight my heart out and win this fight this time. Möge der Beste gewinnen. We’re going to give the fans what they want to see. I’m calling this ‘Fight of the Yearguaranteed.

 

Jermell Charlo

 

 

 

My brother and I have been doing this a long time. Austin Trout has done it a long time as well. I’m hoping everyone gets there early, because I’m bringing excitement to the table right from the start.

 

 

 

Some critics say that me and my brother haven’t fought the people required to be on the pound-for-pound list. My race to the top continues Saturday night to prove all those people wrong.

 

 

 

A knockout is possible. If he wants that to be the way it goes, then I’m capable. Derrick and I have a great plan that we’re ready to use. None of our experience in the past matters, we’re both 0-0. Anything can happen on Saturday night.

 

 

 

I look to do what my brother did against Trout, but way better. If that’s with a knockout or just picking him apart, Ich bin bereit. I’m fighting for a lot more than just a win on Saturday. We’re going to keep shining and do what we have to do.

 

 

 

We want everyone to know that my brother and I come from the trenches. We made it this far, so we’re not stopping now. Nobody is standing in my way. I know Trout wants a belt, but this is the wrong belt to go after.

 

 

 

I have to deal with Austin Trout. Jarrett Hurd is not my focus right now. I definitely want to unify titles soon and I hope he comes out ringside on Saturday night so I can look at him after this fight. Everyone knows what time it is.

 

AUSTIN FORELLE

 

 

 

I’m very excited to be here and have another once in a lifetime opportunity. I believe this is destiny. I’m coming into the lion’s den and I’m going to come out unscathed.

 

 

 

As great as my win against Miguel Cotto was, I don’t think it compares to this fight here. People complained about Cotto being old after I beat him, but with Jermell, there’s no excuse you can make up. He’s an undefeated world champion, so if I get the win, this is definitely bigger than Cotto.

 

 

 

I don’t think he’s overlooking me because I bet his brother told him not to sleep on Trout. Everyone’s going to see what I’ve been saying on Saturday night.

 

 

 

My training camp with Barry Hunter was fantastic. We got all the work in that I needed and Barry is someone who always pushes me to be better than I believe I’m capable of.

 

 

 

I learned from my mistakes when I fought the bigger brother. I’m going to be even better on

Saturday and it’s going to be a totally different result.

 

 

 

For everyone sleeping on me, you better wake up. It’s going to be an awakening on Saturday night.

 

JOSE SANTA CRUZ, Santa Cruz zum Vater & Trainer

 

 

 

Now all there is left to do is wait for fight night. The work up to this point has been done and it has been done well. We are ready to do what needs to be done when the time comes.

 

 

 

Usually at this point ahead of a fight the biggest feat is to make weight but he had no problem there. Leo was on target weight about a month ago so it’s not something we’re worried about at this point. He’s eating good and maintaining weight well and feeling really strong for this fight.

 

 

 

Leo is in incredible shape and I am confident he will win on Saturday. I’m sure Abner and his team are going to bring their best and we’re bringing our best too, but on fight night there will only be two who will clash. We’re ready for war.

 

ROBERT GARCIA, Mütter’ Trainer

 

 

 

Just the fact that Abner is in my training camp and we communicate so well, it’s given me a lot of confidence. Everyone has done a great job doing their part in camp and I believe we’ve worked on all the tools we need to defeat Leo Santa Cruz.

 

 

 

Leo is a great fighter but Abner knows he can win this fight. The confidence he’s gained, and how much more seasoned Abner looks since joining my camp, should translate to a strong performance Saturday.

 

 

 

This has been a really smooth training camp and that’s exactly what Abner needed. We’re primed for a big victory.

 

DERRICK JAMES, Charlo Trainer

 

 

 

I think that Jermell has shown a great level of maturity while also being an aggressive fighter. He’s also very positive about what he wants to do every day in camp, and in the ring on Saturday.

 

 

 

Being able to spar with Errol Spence Jr. every day in camp has definitely helped Jermell. They say it all the time, but iron sharpens iron and that’s the mentality we have to help both guys improve and get to where we know they can get to.

 

 

 

Austin is a crafty fighter who has a lot of experience and a lot of tools. The most important thing though is that we’re focused on getting Jermell to be the best version of himself on Saturday night.

 

Richard Schaefer, Vorsitzende & CEO von Ringstar Sport

 

 

 

Finally the wait is over. We waited three years for this rematch. Everyone asked me when this fight was going to happen. Now there’s just two days to go.

 

 

 

You know it’s a big fight when you have the fight here at the premier venue in Los Angeles, STAPLES Center. These fighters here deserve it, because they are the best fighters in the sport, regardless of division. They’re going to show everyone on Saturday night why we love boxing so much.

 

 

 

Each of these fights could have been a main event in its own right. I’m glad that these fighters were okay all being together on an event that really elevates the sport of boxing.

 

 

 

Jermell Charlo is a once-in-a-generation talent in this sport. He has all the skills you need, but also has that one thing that makes you a superstar. He has charisma, and you cannot learn that. Jedoch, anyone who is doubting Austin Trout, is making a big mistake. I have no doubt that he’ll be more than ready for this challenge.

 

 

 

I’ve been fortunate to follow these main event fighters from their first fight, all the way to now, with them being multiple time world champions and fantastic men outside of the ring. Leo and Abner live the kind of lives that make this sport proud. But on Saturday night, may the best man win.

 

 

 

SHOWTIME delivers week after week of the best fighting the best. This fight is no different and will be another treat for the fans watching on SHOWTIME who have come to expect these great matchups.

 

STEPHEN ESPINOZA, Präsident Sport & Events Programming, Showtime Network Inc.

 

 

 

 

These four guys up here have been on SHOWTIME a combined 41 mal. That’s a lot and it doesn’t happen by accident. The reason it happens is because these fighters embody everything we want SHOWTIME Boxing to be about. They have some of the strongest resumes in the sport. None of these guys have ever shied away from taking a tough fight. They don’t come with excuses, they want the best and biggest fights. We’ ae proud to have all four of them on SHOWTIME.

 

 

 

Right now we have a matchup between two of the biggest stars and faces of Southern California boxing. The featherweight division has seen top five fighters on SHOWTIME already this year-This is a rematch between two more of the top 5. In the first fight, they threw a combined 2,000 Stanzen, which I would bet will be matched again on Saturday.

 

 

 

Austin Trout has been in there with the biggest and best stars in the sport of boxing. But Jermell has quite a bit of momentum. He has four consecutive stoppages, which is very impressive at the championship level. As everyone has said this is another main event quality matchup and I look forward to seeing it on Saturday night.

Unbeaten Super Welterweight World Champion Battles Former World Champion Austin Trout Samstag, Juni 9 Live auf Showtime von STAPLES Center in Los Angeles

LOS ANGELES (Mai 31, 2018) – Unbeaten super welterweight world champion Jermell Charlo has arrived in Los Angeles ahead of his upcoming showdown Saturday, Juni 9 live on SHOWTIME against former champion Austin Trout as part of action from STAPLES Center in Los Angeles in an event presented by Premier Boxing Champions.

 

 

 

The SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast beings at 10 p.m. ET/PT and is headlined by the featherweight world championship rematch between Leo Santa Cruz und Abner Mares.

With just over a week to go until fight night, Charlo conducted a media workout with Los Angeles-area press Thursday at Gloveworx boxing gym in Century City.

 

 

 

Here is what Charlo and his trainer, Derrick James, had to say Thursday:

 

Jermell Charlo

 

 

 

“Ich bin bereit zu gehen. I’m well-prepared. I’ve been in training camp for about 10 Wochen. When you guys saw me before, I wasn’t this built but now I’m ready and I’m excited. I can take on any man in this division.

 

 

 

“Trainingslager war toll. We had world champion Errol Spence Jr. in camp and a bunch of undefeated fighters. I stopped a few, dropped a few, but that’s not the name of the game. It’s all about training and getting the work done to be prepared for June 9.

 

 

 

Trout is a veteran fighter but I don’t believe he’s going to stand in the pocket and try to fight me. I don’t think there’s a single fighter in this weight division that would try to do that, not even [Jarrett] Hurd. If Trout does try that, the night will end fast.

 

 

 

I’m definitely growing as a fighter and growing as a man. If Trout wants to bang, let’s bang. I don’t care what Barry Hunter has or what he does, it’s not going to be able to beat me and Derrick James. I don’t necessarily think Trout is as tough as me so if he can’t put up the skills and match my ability, he won’t beat me that night.

 

 

 

The Lara-Hurd fight was a great fight. Hurd did what he had to do but I’m a completely different fighter from Erislandy Lara. I’m not here to waste punches. I’m not saying Lara didn’t do a great job but I do believe that his conditioning wasn’t there. I’ve focused my whole life on training. I’m single, I don’t have a family that I have to focus on like some of these other guys. It’s all boxing.

 

 

 

This is a doubleheader. I’m not a co-main event or a featured star bout. I did that years ago. How many people leave after I fight? Everybody left after the [Erickson] Lubin fight. I’m going to continue to do what I do. I definitely want to headline for you guys and do it here at STAPLES Center and possibly in Brooklyn. I prefer L.A. obwohl, it’s all nice people and palm trees. They don’t have that in New York.

 

 

 

I have a great team behind me that won’t allow me to get distracted by the bright lights of L.A. I don’t believe that it’s in my mind to worry about anything outside of the ring. My objective is to win Saturday night and then I can get out of the ring and have a great time with my brother.

 

 

 

I’m trying to come in and change some things about boxing. I believe I can make it happen. I think every boxer should have their own media day. [Löwe] Santa Cruz had his own media day. Abner [Mütter] had his own media day. I had my own media day. If we can continue that task as fighters, I think it will bring a much bigger audience to boxing.

 

 

 

I don’t think that whenever the WBC reaches out about a fight that they’re doing it just to play around. This sport is serious. We would love to be a part of a GGG fight. We’re tired of hearing the media say to put the Charlos in there with better competition. I’ve heard that every fight. As long as I’m winning fights and I’m entertaining the fans, that’s what I’m going to do.

 

 

 

I think I could definitely fight at 168. I might just keep growing through the weight divisions. It’s easy.

 

 

 

I was super excited about the video that came out today with Gizzle. It was astounding to me to see an artist come out and produce a song like that about the Charlos and it was even better with the video of the knockouts that me and my brother have.

 

 

 

My fight is won in the gym. I definitely dedicate myself every time I go into a training camp and I spend thousands of dollars on my body and on my training. I sacrifice the fun of being in L.A. to train and be in the best condition possible to fight.

 

DERRICK JAMES, Charlo Trainer

 

 

 

“[Jermell] sparred with Errol [Spence] yesterday and he looked phenomenal. He feels great. I think he and Errol are really similar in their level of fighting. At this point he makes weight pretty easily, he’s doing well and I know he wants to unify. So, until that happens I see no reason for him to go up in weight. Jetzt, with Austin Trout we’re facing a physical fighter and a physical threat to everybody. With him it could be an easier fight or it can be a hard fight. As we know Jermell is a phenomenal fighter who’s very skilled so I’m not thinking about they’re what doing. [Jermell] might be but I’m not.

 

 

 

Austin Trout is a great guy and he’s a great boxer. Even at an older age, his skill set is so good. If you think about Floyd [Mayweather], even at an older age he was beating everyone he was fighting. So, the way I look at it is that he is going to come back hungrier and he’s looking at this as getting an opportunity to get a new fight.

 

 

 

I always go in thinking it’s going to be a tough fight. I can’t go in there thinking of it in any other way. If I was thinking it would be easy, I’d be an idiot and I wouldn’t be here now. I have to keep pushing myself to be better and these guys will be ready for a tough fight.

 

 

 

Jermell is always pushing to do more and do it better. He’s always looking to go further than training. If I tell him to do something he does it and learns from it. He’s a great student. I think he has a lot of heart and a lot of desire, and you will see that come out on June 9th.”

Leo Santa Cruz vs. Abner Mares 2 Samstag, Juni 9 Live on SHOWTIME from STAPLES Center in Los Angeles in an Event Presented by Premier Boxing Champions

Crosstown Battles
A Los Angeles Boxing History Lesson
“Los Angeles, one of the world’s greatest boxing cities, has probably developed more sensational box-office attractions than any other city.
Hap Navarro, Hollywood Legion Stadium matchmaker,
1948-1955

 

LOS ANGELES (Mai 30, 2018) – The first Leo Santa Cruz vs. Abner Mares clash, a candidate for “Kampf des Jahres” in 2015, was a hard fought crosstown Los Angeles battle for supremacy in the featherweight division won by Santa Cruz via a 12-round majority decision at STAPLES Center on August 29.

 

 

 

This Southern California natural hometown bash produced a strong live gate to go along with a peak of 1.641 million viewers on ESPN, their strongest numbers since 1998. The fierce, bloody war left Mares unfulfilled until their long-awaited rematch could be finally realized three years later. The SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast on Saturday, Juni 9 is approaching as we await the exciting, high-voltage return of Santa Cruz vs. Mütter.

 

 

 

Historically, Los Angeles has been the hotspot for slugfests between legendary local Mexican-American fighters. Known for their big hearts in the ring, Mexican-American boxers have electrified fans with their explosiveness and courage. When you mix in the fact that Southland boxing fans are loyal to the end, you have the ingredients for the much anticipated barnburner between Los Angeles-based rivals, Santa Cruz vs. Mütter.

 

 

 

The rematch is bound to instill and bolster Mexican national pride in the hearts of the growing Southland Latino boxing community. STAPLES Center will surely be divided equally between those rooting for either Santa Cruz or Mares. With this fight just over a week away, we look back to similar exciting bouts between popular Los Angeles fighters.

 

 

 

A strong bitterness carried over from many years earlier was in full force during the pre-fight build up between former sparring partners and former world champions Mando Ramos and Raul Rojas. These Harbor-area fighters openly played mind-games with each other and tossed hateful personal insults back-and-forth in order to gain a psychological edge. In this crucial crossroads fight for both, Ramos, von Long Beach, was led to believe that San Pedro’s Rojas was not in shape. Ramos proceeded to take it easy and coasted during training camp. When word got out that Rojas was in top-form, it occurred to Ramos that he’d been had. Immer noch, Ramos mustered enough salvo to knockout Rojas in six rounds on December 10, 1970 at the Olympic Auditorium.

 

 

 

Ramos helped write another chapter of boxing history in the area as the long-awaited grudge match between two popular Chicano icons, Ramos and Ruben Navarro, also pitted the neighborhoods of Harbor vs. Maravilla against each other. The two fighters, who had been mouthing off to one another for three years, finally agreed to meet in the ring to claim exclusive bragging rights for the title ofbest lightweight in town.” Former world lightweight champion Ramos pulled off a close 10-round unanimous decision over top-contender Navarro, “The Maravilla Kidof East L.A., at the Olympic Auditorium on September 30, 1971.

 

 

 

In one of the most anticipated dream matches in Los Angeles boxing history, “Schüler” Bobby Chacon, of Sylmar, knocked out Danny “Bisschen rot” Lopez, of Alhambra, in the ninth round to win the mythicalCity Featherweight Championship.Chacon was in his wheelhouse all night long, rocking Lopez repeatedly with his right hand throughout the fight. This clash of local rising stars in the featherweight division, promoted by Aileen Eaton and the Olympic Boxing Club, occurred in front of a sold-out crowd of 16,027 at the Los Angeles Sports Arena on May 24, 1974. The fight produced so much interest that another 2,671 fans watched on closed-circuit TV at the Olympic Auditorium, located on the corner of 18th & Grand in downtown Los Angeles. Steve Springer of the Los Angeles Times wrote in 1995 about the fight as a measuring stick for boxing fan passion in the area, Sprichwort “you would have to go back to Chacon-Lopez to find such excitement for a pair of Los Angeles fighters.

 

 

 

It was the first time in boxing history that two college graduates fought for the world title when WBC welterweight champion Carlos Palomino, of Westminster, successfully defended his title against Armando Muniz, of Montebello, by 15th-round TKO at the Olympic Auditorium on January 21, 1977. Many local boxing writers called this knockdown, drag-out war, die “Kampf des Jahres”, and in the rematch held May 27, 1978 am selben Ort, Palomino once again stopped Muniz, this time by 15-round unanimous decision.

 

 

 

Santa Cruz and Mares grew up together on the same Southern California boxing scene. Both appeared on many of the same boxing cards, and Santa Cruz even picked up an IBF bantamweight belt vacated by Mares. Jetzt, for these two Mexican warriors with almost identical boxing statistics, the road to greatness leads them both once more to STAPLES Center for surely another sensational ring-war.

 

 

 

Come fight night on June 9, 2018, the boxing world will be treated to another classic Los Angeles slugfest between two certified Mexican warriors. This bout truly promises to be the next chapter written in the long history of exciting Los Angeles crosstown battles. Nearly three years in the making, anticipation will be high and a screaming audience again on their feet, as they witness Maresquest for redemption in his rematch with Santa Cruz. As popular and well-liked as these two hometown heroes are in the Southland boxing community; there will be only one fighter who will walk out of STAPLES Center with his hands raised tall. Möge der Beste gewinnen.

LOS ANGELES (Mai 29, 2018) – Four-time world champion Abner Mares participated in two great events over Memorial Day Weekend, first hosting a Community Day at the L.A. County Sheriff’s Century Boxing Gym on Thursday, and then throwing out the first pitch at the Los Angeles Dodgersgame on Sunday afternoon.

 

 

 

Mares is preparing for a world championship rematch against featherweight titleholder Leo Santa Cruz Samstag, Juni 9 live auf SHOWTIME vom STAPLES Center in Los Angeles bei einer Veranstaltung von Premier Boxing Champions.

 

 

 

Am Donnerstag, Mares was joined by EMMY Award-winning sports reporter Jim Gray, Ringstar Sports Chairman and CEO Richard Schaefer und Stuten’ strength and conditioning coach Luis Garcia, as the group spoke to 150 children ages seven to 19 on their careers and how champions are built in Los Angeles.

 

 

 

Boxing is a disciplined and dedicated sport,” sagte Mares. “The Sheriffs know that with hard work, dedication and discipline, you can make it in life.

 

 

 

You think in boxing a perfect record is everything? It isn’t. When you lose you know what makes you a better champion? Getting up, and becoming a champion again. Getting up every time and not quitting. That’s what makes a true champion.

 

 

 

Am Sonntag, Mares was at Dodgers Stadium to throw out the ceremonial first pitch as part of Viva Los Dodgers, the monthly series at the stadium that celebrates Latino culture. With fight week right around the corner, Mares was able to enjoy the event with his focus still squarely on his showdown with rival Santa Cruz.

 

 

 

It’s always great to be able to participate in events like these that directly reach people in my community,” sagte Mares. “I’m thankful to the Dodgers for the opportunity and I had a great time on Sunday. I hope everyone who was there comes out to STAPLES Center on June 9 because I’m locked in and ready to put on a great show for the fans in Los Angeles.

LOS ANGELES (Mai 22, 2018) – Weltmeister im Federgewicht Leo Santa Cruz hosted a media workout in Los Angeles Tuesday as he prepares for his world title rematch against four-time world champion Abner Mares Samstag, Juni 9 live auf SHOWTIME vom STAPLES Center in Los Angeles bei einer Veranstaltung von Premier Boxing Champions.

 

 

 

The SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast will also feature unbeaten super welterweight world champion Jermell Charlo verteidigt seinen Titel gegen Ex-Weltmeister Austin Trout.

Santa Cruz and Mares first battled in August 2015 at STAPLES Center with Santa Cruz earning the majority decision and a vacant featherweight title. The consensus top-five featherweights will look to put on a repeat of the performance that saw them throw over 2,000 Schläge kombiniert.

 

 

 

Santa Cruz was joined at City of Angels Boxing Tuesday by his father and trainer, Jose Santa Cruz, and Ringstar Sports Chairman and CEO Richard Schaefer. Here is what they had to say Tuesday:

 

LEO SANTA CRUZ

 

 

 

I think Abner has looked better in recent fights, but not so much that he looks unbeatable or anything. He’s shown some improvements but I feel I’ve gotten much better as well. It’s going to be a great fight and I’m going to come out victorious.

 

 

 

He says he’s going to box me more this time, but it’s easier to say that than do it. When you get in the ring and hear the fans, they make you want to brawl. Once you hear the crowd you want to entertain them. You love to hear the people scream.

 

 

 

I’m going to try to go out there and give the fans a great fight like I always do. I feel like I’m in great condition right now. I feel a lot stronger and even my dad has told me this is as good as he’s seen me look.

 

 

 

I’ve learned a lot since the first Mares fight. I’ve learned how to adjust during a fight better. I’m a more complete fighter and it’s going to help me look even better this time.

 

 

 

I’m still as motivated as ever. I have the same hunger as if this fight was for my first title. I never underestimate anyone and always give it my all in the gym. It’s no different heading into this one.

 

 

 

We’re going to try to win bigger this time but I’ll be ready to go 12 Runde. I’d definitely love to stop him. If the knockout comes it comes, and if I see an opening I’m going to take advantage.

 

 

 

I try to motivate my dad as much as I can by training hard. He says he’s happiest when I’m working hard so I just keeping trying to push it every day and make sure he’s happy.

 

 

 

The two fights with Frampton definitely made me a better fighter. They gave me a lot of experience and I learned a lot from those fights. I know I’m going to be a better fighter for this fight than the first time we fought.

 

 

 

We always prepare for 12 Runde. I’ve been going 13 rounds in sparring because my dad always likes to go one extra. This has been one of the best camps we’ve had as far as conditioning and sparring.

 

 

 

I am ready to unify with any of the featherweight champions. Me and Gary Russell Jr. fought in the amateurs. He beat me but it was a good fight and I believe I can beat him. I know the tactics I’d use. Hopefully I can get my rematch.

 

 

 

We’re focused on improving everything in camp. We’re working on my power, Geschwindigkeit, foot work and all of the skills it will take to win this rematch.

 

JOSE SANTA CRUZ, Leo’s Father & Trainer

 

 

 

The first fight with Mares was a bit rough and even dirty at times. After four rounds I felt like they were stealing the fight from us so I told Leo to tire him out and show that he’s the better boxer. The results of the fight proved that.

 

 

 

There are a lot of great fighters out there but not many have good defensive techniques and that is where every fighter can improve. With my kids and with Leo I have always trained him to be good defensively because anyone can throw punches but not everyone can take a punch and keep going. I have always loved this sport but I love to win even more. Leo is still growing but I think he’s the best fighter at featherweight right now.

 

 

 

I definitely think that Mares will come with new skills to this fight and have a different approach with his new trainer now that he’s with Robert Garcia. I think he’ll try to box more and look to get us on the counterpunch.

 

Richard Schaefer, Vorsitzende & CEO von Ringstar Sport

 

 

 

Leo is the kind of fighter who always rises to the occasion and always finds a way to come out victorious. It’s really a 50-50 Kampf. I can give you a lot of reasons why both guys are going to win. It’s the best fight on June 9 and it’s one of the best fights you’re going to see this year.

 

 

 

Leo Santa Cruz and Abner Mares are never going to be in a boring fight. They create special action and drama in the ring. The winners are going to be the fight fans every time.

 

 

 

This is an important fight for both of these guys. It’s about bragging rights in Los Angeles and in the loaded featherweight division. I know that it’s going to bring out the best in both fighters.

 

 

 

Leo won a very narrow decision that could have gone either way, but Leo pulled it out in the first fight. Abner and Robert Garcia have meshed really well and Robert has been able to bring the best out of Abner. He’s going to give Leo Santa Cruz a great challenge again and with the fight in Los Angeles, the fans will definitely propel both guys to go extra hard.

 

 

 

These are the kind of fights that fans love. This is the kind of fight that transcends boxing. These are two fighters who are just incapable of being in a boring fight. They put people on their feet.
