Here is what the fighters had to say Wednesday from the Huntingon Center:
ROBERT PÅSK
We’ve had a real tough camp. Every day I’ve been pushed by team and I thank them for that. They put me in the position that I need to be in.
I understand that Shafikov is a really tough fighter. They’ve always said the guy in front of me is tough. I’m not here to talk about all the close fights he’s almost won. I will be the first man to stop him.
“Där jag kommer ifrån, we don’t play games. Especially when it comes to somebody taking something from us. We’re not going to let that happen.
I’m thankful for everyone that came out here and everyone who helped put this great card together. I’m just excited to get there in the ring and stand next to him.
I have an advantage in reach, but Shafikov is a tough opponent who’s coming to fight. I’m going to show-off my skills and be the first to stop him.
I just have to be me. If you’ve ever seen me fight, you can see that I always stay composed. You’ll see the same thing in the ring på fredag.
When you get in that ring, it’s only me and him. These great fans can’t help me, only my fists. I’m focused on taking control of the fight. I know how to adjust and be a professional in there if I have to.
It’s been eight tough weeks of training camp and I can’t wait to have this beautiful city behind me. På Juni 30, it’ll be man down!”
DENIS SHAFIKOV
I believe that this is my time. It’s my third title fight and this will be the time that I take home the belt and reach my dream.
“jag ger 100 percent every time I step into the ring. I know that this will be an exciting fight but I also know that I have to do whatever it takes to win the title.
I’ve been able to bounce back after my last two title defeats and make myself a better fighter each time. You will see that på fredag night and I will be victorious.
JULIAN WILLIAMS
I appreciate everyone coming out to support the fight. This is really a great card. I watch Robert a lot on television and I can see that the fans here are really supporting him. I’m looking forward to an excited crowd.
Joshua Conley and myself will put on a really good fight, and I expect to come out on top and get back in that win column.
I’m ready to challenge anybody in the division and I’m going to show that I’m back on the right track this Friday night.
JOSHUA CONLEY
I’ve put in the hard work during camp to get a big victory and put myself on the map in the 154-pound division.
I know that I’m fighting a really good fighter. This is my opportunity and if I knock Julian Williams out, I’ll be right in the mix with the best super welterweights in the world.

TOLEDO, OH (Februari 10) – Nästan 10,000 fans turned out for hometown hero Robert påsk (19-0, 14 Kos) as he impressively defended his lightweight world title against Puerto Rico’s Luis Cruz (22-5-1, 16 Kos) at the Huntington Center in Toledo, OH in the main event of Premier Boxning Champions: Nästa omgång om Bounce TV. Den 2012 Olympic alternate used his reach and power throughout the fight, knocking Cruz down three times en route to a unanimous decision victory.
Cruz’s best round came in the fifth as he turned up the action, giving Easter a pause more than once and pushed the champion toward the ropes. After that round, it was all Easter who threw flurries of punches, not always depending on his range, doing his best to pin Cruz back with powerful hooks and body shots. Easter wasn’t fazed by seeing the 10th round for the third time in his career as a big right hand sent Cruz to the canvas for the first knockdown of the fight. Cruz impressively rose to his feet, but Easter didn’t relent.
He continued his conquest and with 10 seconds to go in the 11th round, Cruz was saved by the bell after being knocked down again. Fighting to the finish, Easter gave the raucous crowd what they came for as he threw a big right hand that nearly ended the fight. Cruz did notably did not quit, but was no match for Easter as the judges scored the bout 119-106, 118-107, 117-108.
I co-main event, three-time U.S. Olympian Rau'shee Warren (14-2, 4 Kos) came out strong from the opening bell as he utilized his hand speed and power by knocking Zhanat Zhakiyanov (27-1, 18 Kos) of Kazakhstan not once, but twice. Warren, who was defending his bantamweight title for the first time, could not finish the fight in the first round despite throwing a flurry of unanswered punches following the two knockdowns. The tables started to turn in favor of Zhakiyanov in the third round as he threw several consecutive uppercuts, pressuring Warren against the ropes. He threw two right hooks that knocked Warren to the canvas, but referee Gary Rosato ruled it a slip.
Trained and promoted by former unified world champion Ricky Hatton, Zhakiyanov applied pressure throughout the middle rounds, wearing Warren down. But the Cincinnati-native seemed to have gotten a second wind to kick-off the eighth round as he turned up the heat with one minute to go. Zhakiyanov continued to put pressure on Warren and use his strength. The fight was action packed from start to finish, but it was the Kazakh who earned the split decision victory with scores of 116-110, 115-111 for Zhakiyanov and 115-111 Warren.
The telecast kicked off with a middleweight bout between Cleveland-native Terrell Gausha(20-0, 9 Kos)and Puerto Rico’s Luis Hernandez (15-4, 8 Kos). Gausha established his jab midway through the first round with three straight right hands to the face of Hernandez. Emellertid, it was Hernandez who surprised Gausha with a huge overhand right that floored the 2012 Olympian. Gausha easily bounced back from the knock down and was able to get himself out of trouble and continued to show his power throughout.
Referee Jim Howe deducted a point from Hernandez after two low blows in the seventh round. Hernandez remained determined despite taking a lot of big shots, especially in the ninth round when Gausha was a few shots away from ending the fight. Till slut, Gausha earned a unanimous decision with scores of 98-90 två gånger och 97-91.
FIGHTER & PROMOTER QUOTES:
Robert påsk Jr:
It was very important for me to remain focused tonight but also have fun. My people came out in full force so I wanted to give them a show, a night to remember. I feel like I did that, even though I wish I could’ve given them the knockout.
I admit, I was very surprised that Luis Cruz could take my punches like that and finish the fight. When I had him down and hurt (i omgång 10), I thought he was done. Jag ger honom kredit. He came a long way and showed a lot of heart.
I said before the fight and I’m going to keep saying itI’m here to collect all them belts. I’m not gonna pretend to be that guy who doesn’t call out other fights. I’m calling out Mikey Garcia, Jorge Linares and Terry Flanagan. I want them to see what we were able to do here tonight, the crowd I pulled in. I’m a superstar on the rise and now it’s time for me to collect my prizes and bring these fights and all of the belts home to Toledo.
Even in seeing my brother (Rau'Shee Warren) lose a fight we all thought he won, I couldn’t let that distract what I had to do in the ring. I hated that Rau’Shee had to go through that againlosing in the Olympics three times, not getting his win in the first fight with Juan Carlos Payano, then not getting his belt for months after winning it, and now losing it like that. He’s had it rough, but we’re a team and we have to pick each other up. That became my mission to rise for the sake of the team.
Realistically I’d like to come back maybe May or June. It’s always hard work but I’m not cut or marked up. I want to stay active and get all the champions and best challengers out there. TBTThe Bunny Team is getting ready to take over.
Luis Cruz:
He’s a very strong fighter. I wanted to do more but he took away my energy late in the fight. The first knockdown took a lot of out me. I felt dizzy but it was important for me to finish the fight on my feet. I never stopped trying to win, but he a great champion and the best I’ve ever faced.
I’m going to return home (i Puerto Rico) and enjoy time with my family. I need to rest and relax. Efter det, I’ll think about what’s next for my career.
Zhanat Zhakiyanov:
I knew at the end of the fight that I deserved to win, but because of where we were, we weren’t sure if the judges would give it to us. So that surprised us, but not that I won the fight. I was hurt early, but I outworked him in almost every round after that and was the stronger fighter in the end.
The knockdowns shocked me, men (trainer and promoter, tidigare två-division världsmästare) Ricky Hatton kept me level-headed, telling me the adjustments I had to make. Once I was able to get inside and force the action, I saw (Warren’s) energy level drop.
We are grateful that he gave us the opportunity to fight for the world title. It’s an amazing feeling to win that belt. He feels like he won the fight and wants the rematch. We can definitely talk about doing that. I’ve fought everywhere in the world and don’t back down from any challenge.
Ricky Hatton:
We were surprised when Zhanat went down like that in the beginning of the fight. I just wanted to remind him what he does better and what Rau’Shee is good at. He is never going to outbox him; he had to get in his chest, he had to mug him and make it a brawl. Zhanat did that very well and that’s how he won the fight.
If we lost the fight, we would have been upset, but we’d know it wouldn’t have been a bad decision. I know that Warren is gutted, he feels like he won the fight and let’s be honestit was the type of fight where no matter who won, the loser would have felt like he deserved to have his hand raised.
Their styles make for a great fight. Why not do it again? Not just because it was close but because it was such a great action fight and it always will be.
Rau'Shee Warren:
“Människa, I won that fight. I knocked him down, I was landing the cleaner punches and making him miss. What it is, the judges are favoring aggressive fighters, even when they ain’t even landing.
I went through the same thing with (Juan Carlos) Payano, losing the first fight that I should’ve won and then getting the decision in the rematch. So now I have to prove to these judges the second time what I should’ve got tonight. Of course I want that rematch. I want it next, I want my world titles back.
Obviously you can always do more. We’re gonna go back, look at what we could’ve done differently and make sure the judges don’t take it from me no more.
Terrell Gausha:
The knockdown was legitimate, but that was (Hernandez’) only good moment in the fight. He caught me clean, but it happened to me before (versus William Waters earlier in his career). Just like I did back then, I immediately adjusted and controlled the rest of the fight.
It felt good to get so much from the fans in Toledo and all my fans that came from Cleveland (Gausha’s hometown). It was a great night out here and I’d love to do it again whenever they’re ready to bring us back here or even in my hometown.
I’m ready to return whenever my team says the next opportunity is there for me. Hopefully it’s as soon as possible. This is going to be a big year for me.
Luis Hernandez:
I had him hurt but I didn’t finish him. I didn’t throw enough punches to slow him down after I knocked him down. He deserved to win; I could have done better and will do better in the future. I hope PBC brings me back soon as I want to show I belong with the best.
Adrien Broner:
It was a great turnout tonight. This was the first big promotion for About Billions; it definitely won’t be the last. We got my fight next week in Cincinnati and we gonna keep coming back strong.
Ravone Littlejohn, CEO of About Bilions Promotions:
It was a bittersweet night for us, with Robert Easter looking like a superstar but then with Rau’Shee Warren not getting the victory. We wanted the win in both fights for the fans, but the judges saw what they saw in Rau’Shee’s fight.
The crowd exceeded our expectations. We knew it would be a big turnout but when they opened up the entire venue and we saw nearly all the seats filled, it was a special feeling. Now we get to roll this over to Adrien’s fight next week and look forward to keep bringing big events to Ohio.

ROBERT PÅSK
As everyone knows, I don’t like doing too much talking. I like to do my talking in the ring with these hands. Februari 10 is going to be an exciting night with a tremendous undercard filled with local talent.
These guys up here and on this card are people I’ve grown up with. It means a lot for me to share the stage with them. I’m excited for them.
I’m so grateful for all of the support I’ve received from fans here in Toledo. You keep me going forward and you keep me motivated.
My dad and I have come a long way. It’s been a long road and we’re finally here, överst. I couldn’t have done this without him.
Toledo has been showing up like crazy for my last two fights so it’s got me feeling very comfortable and confident.
I have a very tough fighter in front of me. Cruz is going to come to fight and put on a show, but I’m prepared to deliver a knockout.
I can’t wait to get into the ring for this fight. This is something I’ve been waiting on for years. I’m a world champion just like I knew I always would be.
Having Adrien Broner here means a lot. He is a big brother to me. He showed me the ropes and he’s somebody I always looked up to.
Being able to bring this title back home to Toledo is really exciting. I hope you all are as excited as I am, because on Februari 10 you’re going to see fireworks. It’s going to be short.
LUIS CRUZ
I’m very thankful to everyone who helped me earn this opportunity. I’ve been training really hard and I’m planning on taking full advantage of this.
I hope that all the people who come out på fredag are ready to see a great fight. I’m going to leave it all in the ring.
I know that everything is up against me going to his hometown, but it is my dream to fight for a world title and I will give it everything I have.
RAU'SHEE WARREN
“Detta är en mycket viktig kamp för mig. I’m a world champion but I have a lot more work to do. I’m looking to grab more titles.
My first obstacle is taking care of this mandatory. After I get him out of the way I’ll be ready put my titles up against other champions.
I have to be sharp in this fight. I have to stick with my game plan because this guy is coming to take my title.
My opponent is a pressure fighter. He’s trying to come forward. With the abilities that I have, I’m going to try to make it look easy.
ADRIEN Broner, Former-Four Division World Champion
I have on my promoter hat today for my first major card and I’m really excited about it. Being able to promote a card like this with two world championship fights is amazing, especially because of the fighters on this card.
These fighters are guys that I’ve been in the gym sacrificing with. These guys came from water and cornflakes just like I did. It’s going to be a real surreal moment seeing them up in that ring.
I could tell stories about me, Robert and Rau’shee all day. Now we’re all on the same stage as champions, representing this sport. I’m excited to give the fans of Toledo a great show.

Being able to headline a big fight in my hometown after winning a championship is a dream come true,” said Easter. “My first dream was to win the world title and now I get to defend it in front of my people. I had great fan support at my last fight in Pennsylvania and I know everybody is even more excited to see me at home. A lot of people felt involved in helping me win that world title, and now we get to have a homecoming celebration. This is going to be big for the city. I can’t wait to showcase my skills.
This is a great opportunity for me and I’m planning on putting on my best performance,” said Cruz. “I am going to fight for my home of Puerto Rico and become another world champion from the island. I know that Easter is a good fighter and he will have the fan support, but I am already training harder than I ever have.

I’m ready to get back in the ring,” said Warren. “I’m happy the fight is three days before my birthday because defending my title for the first time and winning will be the best birthday present.

En duktig amatör som var en 2012 US.

Easter was successful in holding off the unbeaten Commey as he was able to earn a split-decision victory in a memorable fight. Nu, Easter will step into the ring as the fighting pride of his hometown for the first time, with his sights set on an impressive performance.
Representing Las Piedras, Puerto Rico, Cruz’s last fight saw him in an entertaining back-and-forth scrap with lightweight contender Ivan Redkach in April that saw both men hit the canvas on their way to a narrow split draw. Cruz owns victories over Martin Honorio, Antonio Davis and Hevinson Herrera in a career that saw the fighter win his first 19 professionella bouts.
A three-time Olympian, Warren competed for the U.S. i 2004, 2008 och 2012 games before turning pro. The 29-year-old picked up victories over veterans Jose Luis Araiza, Javier Gallo, German Meraz and Jhon Alberto Molina leading up to his first world title shot in 2015. After dropping a controversial split-decision in their first fight, Warren defeated Juan Carlos Payano by majority decision in the rematch in June and became the first member of the 2012 US. Olympic team to win a world title.
Fighting out of Petropavl, Kazakstan, Zhakiyanov has won his last 21 fights since his only professional loss in 2008. Most recently he picked up an interim bantamweight title via a decision victory in 2015 over once-beaten Yonfrez Parejo. No stranger to fighting on the road, Zhakiyanov’s U.S. debut on February 10 will mark the 12th country that he has fought in as a professional.
