UNCASVILLE, Кон. - Март 13, 2021 - Former two-time world champion David Benavidez kept his perfect ring record intact with an 11тата-round technical knockout victory against veteran Роналд Елис in their WBC Super Middleweight Title Eliminator main event on Saturday night’s SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast, live on SHOWTIME from Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Кон., in a Premier Boxing Champions event.

Phoenix’s Benavidez (24-0, 21 Нокаута) flashed brilliant hand speed, accuracy and power as he dominated Ellis (18-2-2, 12 Нокаута) от Lynn, Mass., над 11 rounds before referee Johnny Callas finally waved off the fight at 2:03 of the penultimate round. The 24-year-old star held a significant lead on all three scorecards (99-91, 98-92 x2) в момента на спирането.

“I rate my performance pretty good but I know I could have done better,” said Benavidez, who extended his perfect record to 24-0. “Ronald Ellis is a tough competitor. I just hope the fans like what they saw. I threw a lot of combinations, punches in bunches. There were a lot of times I thought Ellis was going to quit but he didn’t. Hats off to him, Той е труден човек. It was a little later than I wanted but a stoppage is still a stoppage. I hope the fans got a good show tonight.”

A boxing prodigy turned youngest super middleweight world champion in boxing history, Benavidez turned in a masterful performance as evidenced by his punch stats, приземяване 289 на 532 power punches thrown for an eye-popping connection rate of 54%. Benavidez connected on 50 punches in the 11тата round which ultimately led to the stoppage. Both fighters combined to throw 1,403 щанци. Following his dominating win on SHOWTIME, Benavidez is one step closer to reclaiming a super middleweight world title.

“I want all the big guys,- добави Бенавидез. “Speaking for the fans too, they would love to see me against all the big guys because as you can see, I love throwing punches. I love stopping people so me versus any big name would be an amazing fight. Искам [Jermall] Charlo, Canelo Alvarez, Калеб Plant, all of them.”

Ellis, 31, showed tremendous determination and a very sturdy chin as he absorbed the constant onslaught from the former two-time world champion. Often working off the ropes as Benavidez pressed the action, Ellis landed 89 на неговата 334 ваксини.

“I could have popped the jab and controlled things a little bit more and not let him smother me,” said Ellis. “Hell yeah I wanted to finish. I didn’t want to give him that satisfaction. I could have moved a little bit more and not taken so many shots to the head. Hats off to him. He did what he had to do. Той никога не ме боли, that’s the funny thing. I took a lot of shots but he didn’t damage me or have me super hurt. I never thought about quitting.”

The sports world lost an icon today as the death of Marvelous Marvin Hagler was reported hours before the live telecast began. A member of the International Boxing Hall of Fame, Hagler, който е бил 66 възраст, fought in the first main event ever on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING on March 10, 1986. Hagler was honored with a ceremonial 10-count prior to tonight’s main event. Click Here to Watch SHOWTIME’s Tribute to Marvin Hagler

Benavidez reflected on Hagler’s passing after the fight: “I had met Marvin once before and he was a great champion. Someone told me he fought the first fight on SHOWTIME. Someone on my team let me know a few hours before the fight that he had passed. It’s sad and he will be missed. He was a true legend.”

В съвместно основното събитие, Isaac Cruz (21-1-1, 15 Нокаута) of Mexico City earned a unanimous decision victory over Argentina’s Matias Romero (24-1, 8 Нокаута) in a 12-round WBA Lightweight Title Eliminator. It marked the first time that the 22-year-old Cruz went 12 rounds in his professional career. The judges’ scorecards read 114-113, 115-112 и 118-109. Неофициалният голмайстор на SHOWTIME Стив Фардхуу вкара битката 115-112, giving rounds 10 през 12 to the rising star.

“I’m not happy about the style of the fight but I am satisfied I took the victory home and we’ve come to the No. 1 spot in the WBA,", Каза Крус. “I didn’t know what was going to happen [as far as the judges]. We forced the fight at all times and it would have been very impossible for the judges to do something to me when I was the one pushing the fight.”

Throughout the 36-minute affair, Cruz constantly applied pressure against his opponent which led to Romero, the more seasoned professional, to hold excessively in an attempt to stall the pressure. Despite being warned frequently by referee Harvey Dock, the 24-year-old Romero was never penalized. During the rough-and-tumble contest, обаче, Cruz was docked a point in the sixth round for a low blow.

“He was a fighter who didn’t want to exchange punches,” Cruz added, in reference to the persistent clinching. “I was very fed up with the clinches—there was never a warning toward him. I did my best out there. Not the best way I wanted to do it but thank God we won the fight and we’re taking the victory home.”

Romero presented an effective jab throughout the fight, приземяване 89 на 282, but it was Cruz’s power punching that ultimately earned him the victory. Cross, who is now the No. 1 contender for a world title shot at 135 паунда, поземлен 145 на 459 захранващи удари, включително и 91 снимки на тялото.

“Obviously I’m not happy with the decision,” stated Romero following his first professional loss. “I thought maybe it was a draw. Overall I’m happy with my performance. He’s supposed to the be the ‘Pit Bull’ and I went the distance. You have to take the opportunities when they are presented and I wish I would have had more time to get ready for this fight.”

In the evening’s opening bout, Cleveland’s Теръл Gausha (22-2-1, 11 Нокаута) scored an impressive second-round technical knockout over fellow Ohioan Jamontay Clark (15-2-1, 7 Нокаута) Синсинати. Gausha, 33, did not land a single power punch in the opening round but worked well behind the jab, winning the round on two of the judges’ scorecards. As the second round neared completion, Gausha beautifully countered a lunging left hand from the southpaw Clark which sent the 26-year-old to the canvas for the first time in his professional career. Clark beat the count but moments later was met by a barrage of unanswered punches in the neutral corner. Referee Arthur Mercante jumped in and called a halt to the bout at 2:44 на втория кръг.

“I knew Jamontay was a tough kid, I’ve been watching him since Cleveland so I knew about him already,каза Гауша. “I felt like I had a chance to knock him out but I didn’t know how the fight would play out. But I feel I did good, executed the game plan. My coaches had been studying film and we executed.

“I just took my time,” added Gausha. “I was setting traps. I knew he would be open eventually, but I had to be cautious too because he’s a rangy guy, has a good left hand. But I knew there were holes in his game and we executed and when the opportunity presented itself, we landed that big right hand.”

With his emphatic stoppage win, на 2012 Olympian emerges as a contender for a title shot in the super welterweight division. In his first and only world title shot in 2017, Gausha dropped a unanimous decision to current super welterweight world champion Erislandy Lara.

“I know I made a statement tonight,” added Gausha. “I put the division on notice. I’m locked and loaded and I’m ready. I want to be a world champion so I’m looking to fight whoever I need to fight to get to the belts.”

Събота SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP Бокс telecast will replay Sunday at 8:55 А.М. ET/PT on SHOWTIME and Monday at 10 p.m. ET on SHOWTIME EXTREME.

Tripleheader, първоначално планирано за ноември 28, ще видим претенденти в средна категорияМат КоробовиРоналд Елисбитка в 10-рундовото съ-главно събитие и нарастващо супер леко явлениеРичардсън Hitchinsпоемайки най-тежкия тест в младата си кариера, когато се изправя срещу бившия световен шампионАрхенис Mendezв 10-рундова отварачка за телевизионни предавания. Събитието се популяризира от TGB Promotions и Sampson Boxing. Хичинс срещу. Мендес е популяризиран от Mayweather Promotions.

Нордин Убаали срещу. Първоначално Nonito Donaire трябваше да се проведе през декември 12 но беше отложено, след като Убаали даде положителна проба за COVID-19.

„Това основно събитие през декември 12 ще изправи един срещу друг двама от най-вълнуващите изгряващи таланти на 130-килограмовата дивизия, докато изключително квалифицираният Крис Колбърт се изправи срещу могъщия Хайме Арболеда в сблъсък, който не може да се пропусне,- каза Том Браун, Председател на TGB Промоции. „Ко-главното събитие ще види двама претенденти в средна категория в Мат Коробов и Роналд Елис, които искат да покажат, че са сред елита на дивизията, докато началото на SHOWTIME включва вълнуващата перспектива Ричардсън Хичинс срещу винаги твърдия Аргенис Мендес в голяма битка напред. Това са три равнопоставени двубоя, които трябва да доведат до неспирна драма в бойната нощ.”

Представлява родния си Бруклин, N.Y., Colbert (14-0, 5 Нокаута) бързо се издигна нагоре в класацията с тегло 130 паунда, поемайки състезание на високо ниво в първия си 14 про битки. 24-годишният играч победи непобедените тогава бойци Остин Дюлей, Тит Уилямс и Антонио Дюбоз, всички в първите си осем битки като професионалист. В 2019, Колбърт добави още четири победи към своя резултат, включително експлозивен нокаут в първия рунд на ветерана Мигел Белтран младши. Съвсем наскоро, Колбърт спечели временната си титла, като изпусна бившия шампион в полулегка категория Йезраел Коралес по пътя си към единодушно решение през януари 2020 сблъсък.

„Много съм развълнуван да направя своя дебют на голяма сцена в главното събитие,- каза Колбърт. „Беше дълъг лагер, но обучението върви чудесно. Търся доминиращо представяне, и търся нокаута, ако го има. Ако мога да го получа, това би било прекрасно. Знам, че Джейме ще дойде да се бие. Той иска колана толкова силно, колкото аз искам да запазя колана. Всичко ще се сведе до издръжливост, пръстен IQ и кой има по-голяма воля за победа. Чувствам се, че съм човекът за работата. Няма начин, по дяволите, да се откажа от колана си в първата си защита."

26-годишната Арболеда (16-1, 13 Нокаута) натрупа впечатляваща серия от шест победи в мача срещу Colbert, с пет от тези победи, идващи вътре в дистанцията. Роден в Курунду, Панама, и сега се бият с Маями, Fla. Оттогава Арболеда се бори професионално 2014 и отбеляза нокаути над двама тогава непобедени противници 2019, Виктор Бетанкур и Хосе Саант. В последния си двубой, Арболеда, който е на четвърто място в дивизията до 130 паунда от WBA, победи бившия претендент за световната титла Джейсън Велес с единодушно решение да спечели първата си битка в 12 рунда този февруари по SHOWTIME.

“Мечтата на всеки боксьор е да се бори за титла и да победи, без да оставя никакво съмнение,“, каза Арболеда. „Това е планът ми за декември 12. Имам най-добрата подготовка в цялата си кариера. Чувствам се страхотно, силен и бърз, както никога досега. Сигурен съм, че ще бъде много вълнуваща битка от първия рунд.”

Korobov (28-3-1, 14 Нокаута) се завръща в действие, след като загуби своя декември 2019 сблъсък срещу Крис Юбанк младши. когато получи контузия на рамото, която принуди битката да приключи във втория рунд. Коробов, който засече 300 печели като украсен аматьор, влезе в тази битка след равенство с мнозинство срещу Immanuwel Aleem, след като връчи уведомление до средната категория, че ще бъде заплаха, когато загуби трудно решение от непобедения шампион в средна категория Джърмал Чарло през декември. Роден в Оротукан, Русия, и сега живее в Св. Petersburg, Fla, Коробов беше късна смяна и даде на Чарло по-тежък бой, отколкото много експерти очакваха. Коробов имаше серия от четири победи преди битката с Чарло, след първото си професионално поражение срещу Анди Лий в 2014 битка за титлата в средна категория.

“Развълнуван съм да се върна в PBC събитие на SHOWTIME на 12 декември,” каза Коробов. “Имам труден противник, но очаквам да спечеля и да докажа, че съм се върнал и още по-добре подготвен. Трябва да спечеля срещу Елис, за да върна Джърмал Чарло на ринга. Разбира се, Вярвам, че победих Чарло, но това е миналото. Елис е в моето бъдеще, и идвам да покажа, че все още съм една от най-добрите средни в света.”

31-годишният Елис (17-1-2, 11 Нокаута) ще се опита да надгради последния си излет, което го изпревари с решение с мнозинство през декември над своя колега Имануел Алеем 2019. За Елис, тази битка го върна в колоната за победи след първото му поражение в кариерата, решение с мнозинство срещу DeAndre Ware през март 2019. Лин, Масачузецът е по-големият брат на Рашиди Елис в полусредна категория, и имаше впечатляваща аматьорска кариера, включително а 2010 Националният шампионат по Златни ръкавици завърши с победа над Теръл Гауша.

“Време е да се покажа на 12 декември,” каза Елис. “Коробов имаше своя шанс срещу топ средните, и сега е моето време да се възползвам от тази възможност и да използвам победа над него, за да достигна това ниво. Работим усилено в спаринга в Сан Диего с Канело Алварес, така че всичко да е перфектно и да съм най-добре в бойната нощ.”

Родом от Бруклин, Хичинс (11-0, 5 Нокаута) Оказа про в 2017 след като представлява Хаити на 2016 Олимпиада. 23-годишният футболист показа впечатляващи умения, като натрупа непобеден рекорд в професионалистите, което е продукт на обширна аматьорска кариера. Хичинс отбеляза четири победи 2019, преди да дебютира в 2020 с победа с решение над Никълъс ДеЛомба. В първите си два двубоя от 10 рунда като професионалист, левшата вкара решаващи единодушни решения.

„Не пренебрегвам нито един противник, но вярвам, че имам по-добри и по-остри умения от Мендес,- каза Хичинс. „Имам всички нематериални активи, за да стана световен шампион. Това често се бърка като самонадеяно, но наистина само аз вярвам в себе си повече от всеки друг. Ще приема тази битка сериозно, както правя всяка друга битка и ще продължа да правя това, което правя, за да се приближа една крачка по-близо до тази титла. Да бъдеш в лагера с Флойд Мейуедър и Джервонта Дейвис, научих много. Имам чувството, че трябва да превъзхождам конкуренцията. Те наистина ме подтикнаха да бъда по-добър боец.”

Бивш шампион в полулегка категория, Mendez (25-5-3, 12 Нокаута) има репутация, че предоставя сериозни предизвикателства на най-добрите в спорта и се е доказал като издръжлив претендент на 140 паунда. В 2019, Мендес се бори до последователни равенства срещу супер леки претенденти, първо срещу Антъни Питърсън през март и след това срещу непобедения Хуан Хералдес през май. Роден в Сан Хуан де ла Магуана, Доминиканската република, Мендес сега се бие от Йонкърс, N.Y.. и притежава победи над Еди Рамирес, Иван Редкач и бившият титулист Мигел Васкес. Той също така се е сблъсквал с бившите шампиони Ранс Бартелми и Робърт Истър-младши.

„Изправен съм пред млада перспектива, която е гладна за успех, но днес съм по-гладен, отколкото някога съм бил в кариерата си и имам опит да се съобразя с това,“, каза Мендес. „Аз също съм изключително мотивиран за този двубой, което не е добра новина за Хичинс. Когато дойде времето за битка през декември 12, ще станете свидетел на интелигентен, но по-агресивен Аргенис Мендес.

BROOKLYN (Декември 8, 2019) – Undefeated WBC Middleweight World ChampionJermall Charlo (30-0, 22 Нокаута) successfully defended his title for the second time, stopping highly-ranked Irish contender Dennis Hogan (28-3-1, 7 Нокаута) with a showstopping one-punch knockout in the seventh round Saturday night live on SHOWTIME from Barclays Center, в дома на Бруклин Бокс ™, в събитие, представен от Premier боксови шампиони.

WATCH CHARLO’S FINISH

Houston’s Charlo, one of the most exciting young champions in the sport, delivered on his promise that he would close the show in spectacular fashion after going the distance in his previous two bouts. При :28 of round number seven, Charlo set Hogan up by feinting on the jab before connecting on a ferocious left hook to Hogan’s nose that sent him falling against the ropes. The 34-year-old Hogan, who was moving up after most recently challenging for the title at 154 паунда, rose to his feet before the ten count, but referee Charlie Fitch waived off the bout.

When Hogan was dropped in the seventh round, it was the third time in his career that he had been down and the second time during the fight. В третия кръг, a vicious left uppercut from Charlo just 12 seconds into the frame sent Hogan rolling backwards onto the canvas, but the Irishman rose quickly and acrobatically to his feet.

Despite throwing far fewer punches, Charlo had the more effective and efficient attack. Charlo landed 86 на 266 punches he threw (32%) while Hogan landed just 71 на 418 punches he threw (17%). Despite Hogan landing on 61 електрически удари в сравнение с 57 for Charlo, Hogan was unable to hurt Charlo, while Charlo’s trademark power resulted in another highlight reel stoppage.

“I made it through 2019 and we’re going to 2020 с 20/20 vision,” said Charlo in the ring following the fight. “Shout out to Dennis Hogan for giving me real competition and for coming up to fight me.Of course my power prevailed tonight.

“We’ve been working on that (the uppercut). I try to take him out with every punch and we work hard for it. He got up and he fought like a champion. Ronnie (Шийлдс) told me to cut him off. I just threw the shot and I made sure I threw it right on the money.

“The middleweight division is wide open. I’m the WBC Champion. I’m going to enjoy this and spend time with my team. I’m here to fight whoever. You have to make the right decisions and do it at the right time. That’s what it’s all about.”

“I wanted to keep going but the decision was fair enough by the referee,” said Hogan. “I didn’t see the punch coming on the second knockdown. I was trying to keep boxing him but then all of a sudden I was on the ground and the fight was over.

“I’m looking forward to spending the Christmas holiday with my family, taking a month off, and then we’ll work on what’s next for me.”


В съвместно черта схватката, Chris Eubank Jr.'с (29-2, 22 Нокаута) long-awaited United States debut ended in frustrating fashion as his opponent, Мат Коробов (28-3-1, 14 Нокаута), suffered a bout-ending injury at just :34 на втория кръг. Because it was ruled a self-inflicted injury, the result was officially declared a TKO victory for Eubank, who picked up the Interim WBA Middleweight Title.

Korobov, a top contender in the middleweight division, injured his left shoulder after throwing a punch that failed to land. After consulting with the ringside doctor, it was deemed that he would be unable to continue.

“I felt like I was about to get my swagger on,” Eubank told SHOWTIME reporter Jim Gray following the stoppage. “He just turned around and stopped. I was going to go jump on him. I guess something happened with his shoulder. There’s nothing to take from the fight. I threw like three or four punches. I was just warming up.”

In the buildup to the fight, Eubank, the son of British boxing legend and former two-division world champion Chris Eubank Sr., repeatedly said that there would be a new contender in the stacked middleweight division. Despite not getting a chance to introduce himself to the American audience in the way he envisioned, Eubank is looking ahead to a busy 2020.

“I’m the winner, I’m going to move forward and challenger for these belts,” said Eubank. “This wasn’t my dream. My dream was to come here to America and make a statement. Now that I’ve landed and I settled with the new promotional team, I feel I can get the ball rolling for an active 2020. It’s a shame it had to start like this, but it is what it is.”

“I was trying to throw the left hand straight, and I just felt the muscle immediately, like I pulled it,” каза Коробов. “It was a lot of pain right away. I couldn’t fight with just one arm, especially being a southpaw.”

In a battle of former world champions to open the telecast, Japan’s Ryosuke Iwasa (27-3, 17 Нокаута) knocked out the Philippines’ Марлон Тапалес (33-3, 16 Нокаута) with a devastating straight left-hand at 1:09 на 11тата кръг. С тази победа, Iwasa earned the vacant Interim IBF World Junior Featherweight Title.

Аз бях, who held a six-and-a-half-inch reach advantage, was more consistent throughout the entirety of the bout, stringing together multi-punch combinations. The decisive moment of the 12-round fight came in the penultimate round, when Tapales was caught with a counter left-hand that connected flush on his chin and put him sprawled on the canvas. Tapales beat the count, rising after eight seconds, but referee Shada Murdaugh waved the fight off.

По време на спирането, Iwasa led on all three scorecards (97-92, 95-94, 97-92). While Tapales was more accurate throughout the night, Iwasa was busier and landed 163 общи удари в сравнение с 148 for Tapales and held a 125-99 advantage in power punches landed. В третия кръг, Tapales was dropped to a knee after an accidental clash of heads. The clash, which was incorrectly ruled a knockdown, caused severe swelling under Tapales’ right eye and swung a would-be 10-9 round in his favor to a 10-8 round in Iwasa’s favor.

“I knew that I had him hurt in the 11тата round and I was ready for the finish if the referee had let him keep fighting,” said the 29-year-old Iwasa. “It was a tough fight but I trained really hard for this performance. My height and reach was definitely an advantage. I was able to put my punches together well. He never hurt me but he was still difficult and I had to focus to figure him out.

“We’re ready for anyone next. I’m going to keep working hard to become a world champion again next year.”

On Saturday’s telecast it was announced that former two-division world champion Danny Garcia would return to the ring on Saturday, Януари 25 живеят на SHOWTIME от Barclays Center. During an interview with SHOWTIME Sports host Brian Custer, Garcia discussed his anticipated return to the ring.

“Януари 25, I’m back at Barclays Center, my home away from home,” Garcia said. “It’s a great atmosphere. Every time I’m here, I get the jitters, so I just can’t wait to be back. I’ve been in the gym for a month. I’m already ready. I don’t know who my opponent is, but whoever they put in front of me, Готов съм да го кача.

“Най-напред, Благодаря на Бога, (Ерол) Spence is doing good. I hear that he’s recovering well. I was really looking forward to fighting him but maybe he could be next after January 25. Pac-Man (Мани Пакиао) or Spence, that’s who we want. 2020 is going to be a big year for me.”

Prior to the telecast on SHOWTIME, SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING COUNTDOWN streamed live on the канал SHOWTIME Спорт YouTube и SHOWTIME Boxing Facebook страница and saw Роналд Елис (17-1-2, 11 Нокаута) win a majority decision over Имануел Aleem (18-2-2, 11 Нокаута) in their 10-round super middleweight fight.

The back and forth affair saw both men grab the momentum of the fight at different points, but it was Ellis’ activity and ability to box effectively from the outside that gave him the edge. While one judge had the fight 95-95, he was overruled by two scores of 98-92 и 97-93 for Ellis.

The opening streaming bout saw Louisa Hawton (10-2, 5 Нокаута) retain her Interim WBC Atomweight Championship by unanimous decision in an all-action rematch againstLorraine Villalobos (4-3, 2 Нокаута).

Hawton came back after being dropped by a powerful left hook from Villalobos in the sixth round. Hawton was saved by the bell in the round and finished the fight strong, punctuating the action getting the best of several exchanges in the late rounds to win by the score of 95-94 и на трите карти.

Middleweight Star Chris Eubank Jr. & Top Contender Matt Korobov Discuss Upcoming Showdown for Interim WBA Middleweight Title On Saturday, Декември 7 Живей SHOWTIME® from Barclays Center in Premier Boxing Champions Event



BROOKLYN (Ноември 19, 2019) – Middleweight star Chris Eubank Jr. и голям съперник Мат Коробов shared their thoughts on their upcoming showdown for the Interim WBA Middleweight Title taking place Saturday, Декември 7 живеят на SHOWTIME от Barclays Center,в дома на Бруклин Бокс ™.



The middleweight division will take center stage on the SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING®телевизионно предаване (9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT) that is headlined by undefeated WBC Middleweight World Champion Jermall Charlo defending his title against highly-ranked contender Dennis Hogan. При откриването схватката на телевизията, former world champions Марлон Тапалес и Ryosuke Iwasawill meet for an interim 122-pound title.



Билети за събитието на живо, който се популяризира от Lions Only Promotions и TGB Promotions, are on-sale now and can be purchased at ticketmaster.com
и barclayscenter.com. Билети и могат да бъдат закупени от касата на American Express в Barclays Center. Група намаления са възможни, като се обадите 844-BKLYN-GP.



Eubank will make his U.S. pro debut on December 7, after establishing himself as a contender at 160 и 168 pounds while fighting in his native United Kingdom. He most recently registered a career-best win over former champion James DeGale in February on SHOWTIME in London but will now move back down to 160 pounds to seek a title at middleweight beginning with the fight against Korobov.



Korobov will return to fight at Barclays Center for the second time nearly one year after losing a close decision to Charlo as a late replacement opponent last December in Brooklyn. After fighting to a controversial draw against Immanuwel Aleem in May, Korobov will look to make a statement against Eubank to earn another shot at a world title.



Here is what Eubank and Korobov had to say about their matchup, a future fight with Jermall Charlo and more:



CHRIS EUBANK JR.



How does it feel to be making your U.S. pro debut on December 7? What are you looking to show the U.S. fans in this fight?



“It’s always been a dream of mine to fight in the U.S. Even with everything I’ve done in the sport over in the U.K, I’ve always felt there was something missing and I believe it was the urge to introduce myself and my fight style to the American audience of fight fans. Now I have my opportunity.”



Why did you make the decision to move down to middleweight for this fight? In what ways are you stronger at 160-pounds?



“I’ve never been a real super middleweight. I walk around at 170 pounds out of competition and have to eat breakfast the day of my weigh-ins to make 168. I believe at 160 I am going to be a beast now that I have become accustomed to fighting much bigger fighters over the last three years.”



What do you know about Korobov as a fighter and how do you see this fight going stylistically?



“I think Korobov will be awkward until I pin him down and when I do, I will show the audience why I am a fan friendly fighter.”



If you’re able to get past Korobov, what would you think of a fight against Jermall Charlo? What advantages do you think you have in that fight?



“When I dispatch of Korobov, Charlo is definitely the name that’s on my radar. He is seen as one of the elite fighters in the middleweight division and I intend to prove that he is not on my level. It will be satisfying stamping my mark on the division against Charlo after I beat Korobov. I think it will be a great fight for the fans as together our styles would make for a very exciting bout.”



MATT KOROBOV



Is it exciting to be back at Barclays Center as the co-main event to Charlo, because with a win, you have an opportunity to show him why you deserve the rematch?



"Да, it is very exciting to be back at Barclays Center, only this time I will leave with the belt. I thought I deserved an immediate rematch against Charlo because many people believed I won. I think when I defeat Eubank Jr. and win this belt, it will force Charlo to give me a rematch. We shall see. I only focus on one fight at a time and right now I am only focused on Chris Eubank Jr.”

How do you stay mentally focused on the next fight when you believe you had two bad scorecards go against you?



“I do not focus on the past. I focus on the future because I can only control the future. I will be my best and my best will be good enough against Chris Eubank Jr. We’re doing everything possible in camp to make sure I’m ready.”

What do you make of Eubank as a fighter? How do you expect the fight to look stylistically?



“Eubank is a very good fighter, one of the best. I believe I am a more disciplined fighter. I think my technique is better, but he does some things very well. Let’s see on December 7. I don’t want to give away the weaknesses I see, but the style difference will make a very entertaining fight for the fans.

Do you think you have the advantage as far as boxing skills over Eubank? How do you counter his possible size advantage, given that he’s coming down from 168 паунда?



“I think my skills are better. I do not think weight will be an issue. He is professional and I am professional. Ако нещо, perhaps it is a little more difficult for him to make 160 after years at 168. I will fight anyone between 160 и 168 паунда, so I don’t see any problem with weight for me, perhaps more for him. We will find out December 7.”

Ellis (15-0-2, 10 Нокаута), who recently sparred with Canelo Alvarez and Sergey Kovalev, се връща къмShoBox for the fourth time seeking a statement win. Лин, Mass., native faces Ware (12-1-2, 8 Нокаута), a come-forward fighter out of Toledo, Ohio who trained with Tony Harrison in preparation for his upset win over Jermell Charlo.
 
Събитието се насърчава от GH3 Промоции във връзка с Greg Коен Промоции. Tickets can be purchased by calling 585-232-3221.
 
При откриването схватката на телевизията, undefeated lightweights Thomas Mattice and Will Madera will face off in an eight-round 135-pound matchup. Like Ellis, Mattice (13-0-1, 10 Нокаута), Кливланд, returns for his fourth bout on the prospect developmental series. Madera (12-0-2, 6 Нокаута), a three-time New York Golden Gloves Champion out of Albany, N.Y., will make his television debut.
 
The scheduled televised opener between Abraham Nova and Oluwaseun Joshua Wahab was cancelled after Wahab was forced to withdraw from the bout due to immigration issues entering the U.S. from Ghana.
 
ОКОНЧАТЕЛНИ ТЕГЛА
 
Super Middleweight 10-Round Bout
Ronald Ellis – 167 ½ Pounds
DeAndre Ware – 166 ¾ Pounds
 
Lightweight 8-Round Bout
Thomas Mattice – 134 ¼ Pounds
Will Madera – 134 ½ Pounds
 
 
Окончателна оферта:
 
RONALD ELLIS 
 
“It’s my fourth time onShoBox, this time I have to get it right, this time I have to go out with a bang.
 
“I’m going to show a lot, I’m going to show boxing, banging, whatever they want to see we’re going to bring.
 
“I trained at Buddy McGirt’s new boxing gym in Northridge, Халиф. I sparred Canelo Alvarez for his last fight and was in camp with Sergey Kovalev for his fight this weekend.
 
“I learned a lot from Canelo and Kovalev. I feel like sparring with them gave me an edge, so I’m going to look like a whole different fighter in there. Canelo is more compact and he comes a little bit faster. Kovalev, he’s big and he’s a banger.
 
“DeAndre Ware is tough. He’s just a real tough guy who comes to fight. He got a lot of heart and he’s just going to do what he got to do. He’s not going to stick and move. He’s going to be there all night unless I get him out. I think his game plan is just going to be to come in and do what he does.
 
“I think it’s a perfect fight for SHOWTIME. This one is going to be entertaining.”
 
 
DeANDRE WARE
 
"Чувствам се страхотно, feeling strong. We had a full camp this time around so I’m looking for good things. My training camp was about six to eight weeks at the Glass City Gym in Toledo. Prior to that, I was in Tony Harrison’s camp helping him to get ready to fight (Jermell) Charlo.
 
“Sparring was great, it was probably the best sparring and best camp I’ve had so far. I only had about 12 days to prepare for my last fight and I’m in much better shape this time. I think that’s going to play a big difference in this fight tomorrow night.
 
“Ronald Ellis is just another guy in my way. I think Ellis is a tough fighter. From what I’ve seen, he’s a come-forward guy. He tries to box a little bit – there’s skill. I respect anybody that gets in that ring, but come fight time, all that stuff goes out the door. I’m coming to win.”
 
 
THOMAS MATTICE
 
“It’s a great feeling to come back toShoBox for the fourth time. Последната ми битка [a draw against Hamazaryan] was a great fight, a very exciting fight, but I thought I edged it five rounds to three. We’re going to do what we have to do to make sure this fight doesn’t turn out like that.”
 
“If I use my skills and my ability to use the ring it should help me tomorrow night. I don’t really know much about my opponent, I haven’t watched him since he was a last-second opponent and I got him like two weeks ago.
 
“Training camp was great. We were training for a southpaw and then they switched it when my opponent switched but I’m confident and I feel ready.
 
“I’m better than what I’ve shown in the past. My plan is to show that tomorrow night.”
 
WILL MADERA
 
"Чувствам се страхотно, I’m confident and I’m looking to put on a show. I had a great camp, I trained hard and I have no worries.
 
“For tomorrow, the key is pressure, intelligent pressure. I don’t want to come in overwhelming myself but still keep the pressure on him.
 
“Our styles should make for an exciting fight. If I bring the pressure it’s going to be a fun fight
 
[The Hamazaryan fight] was controversial. The first fight was a really close fight and I think if I apply the same pressure and fight smarter, I’ll get the victory.
 
“I’ve been waiting for an opportunity like this. Now I just need to finish the job.”

UNDEFEATED SUPER MIDDLEWEIGHT RONALD ELLIS LOOKS TO GET NEW ENGLAND SPORTS OFF TO A GREAT START IN MAIN EVENT OF SHOBOX: THE NEW GENERATION THIS FRIDAY, Февруари 1 На живо по SHOWTIME®

Ellis Takes On DeAndre Ware In Main Event Of Tripleheader Beginning Live At 10 p.m. ET/PT From Main Street Armory In Rochester, N.Y..


NEW YORK – Януари 29, 2019 – Undefeated super middleweight prospect and Massachusetts native Ronald Ellis (15-0-2, 10 Нокаута) will look to set the tone for a successful sports weekend for New England when he takes on DeAndre Ware (12-1-2, 8 Нокаута) in the 10-round main event of ShoBox: The New Generation this Friday live on SHOWTIME (10 PM ET / PT).

Борбата, which will take place at The Main Street Armory in Rochester, Ню Йорк, will serve as another opportunity for Ellis, a native of Lynn, Massachusetts.

Ellis, who is a huge fan of his beloved New England Patriots, is eager to earn a big win and then return to his new residence in Los Angeles to see Tom Brady bring home a record sixth Super Bowl title.

“My camp went beautiful. I have had a couple camps in a row, so I was able to work on a lot of things. I learned a lot in this camp,” каза Елис.

The 29-year-old Ellis knows that he has a tough customer in front of him in once-beaten Ware.

“Ware is a solid fighter. He is real tough, and he comes forward. He is not a tall guy, but he makes up with it with his toughness. He is a former football player, and he likes to come forward, so I know he will be there.”

This will be the fourth appearance on ShoBox for Ellis, and he feels that a strong performance will lead him to major fights in the next year.

“Тази година, I have to execute. Now it’s time to perform. I just need to keep fighting, and if that happens I feel that I will be in line for a title shot in the next year. There is a lot of talent in the division, and now it’s time to knuckle up and all fight each other. I feel that I can compete with the elite of the division.”

When talking about the Patriots, Ellis lights up. He has been a fan of the team since he was a youth growing up in the Boston suburbs.

“It’s is going to be a great game. По ирония на съдбата, I moved to Los Angeles to train a couple of years ago, and for the last week all I’ve been hearing about is the Rams. It has been fun going at with the guys in the gym about the game, but I will always represent the Patriots. I am going to get the state of Massachusetts off to a good start on Friday, and the Patriots will have their arms raised on Sunday.”

Ellis and Ware headline a tripleheader that will also feature undefeated lightweights Thomas Mattice (13-0-1, 10 Нокаута) of Cleveland taking on Will Madera (12-0-2, 6 Нокаута) на Albany, New York in an eight-round bout. The broadcast kicks off with a eight-round super featherweight contest between undefeated fighters Abraham Nova (14-0, 10 Нокаута) на Albany, New York and Oluwaseun Joshua Wahab (18-0, 11 Нокаута) на Акра, Гана.

Билети за събитието на живо, which is promoted by GH3 Promotions in association with Greg Cohen Promotions, са с цени $100 за VIP Ringside, $50 for Preferred Seating, $30 за общо признание и $2,000 for VIP Tables. Tickets can be purchased by calling 585-232-3221.

Highly Regarded Prospects Logan Yoon and Abraham Nova To Make ShoBox Debuts In Separate Bouts Of Three-Fight Telecast

Live At 10 p.m. ET/PT From Main Street Armory In Rochester, N.Y..

НЮ ЙОРК - Януари 8, 2019 – Undefeated super middleweight prospect Ronald Ellis returns to ShoBox: Новото поколение seeking a statement win against DeAndre Ware in the 10-round main event of a three-fight telecast on Friday, Февруари 1 live on SHOWTIME from Main Street Armory in Rochester, N.Y..

The first of two February editions of the prospect developmental series will feature six fighters with a combined 89 wins against just three losses. The series returns just two weeks later on February 15 with a focus on the heavyweight division.

In the February 1 co-featured fight, 20-year-old Hawaiian Logan Yoon (14-0, 11 Нокаута) will make his national television debut against Richard Zamora (18-2, 11 Нокаута) in an eight-round super lightweight bout.

При откриването схватката на телевизията, former No. 1-класира САЩ. amateur Abraham Nova (12-0, 10 Нокаута) will face fellow-unbeaten Oluwaseun Joshua Wahab (18-0, 11 Нокаута), на Гана, in an eight-round super featherweight bout.

The 29-year-old Ellis, originally from Lynn, Mass., returns for his fourthShoBox appearance as he seeks a statement win following a controversial draw in his last outing on the series. The former National Golden Gloves Gold Medalist out-boxed Junior Younan last February in a fight many observers thought he deserved to win. Still undefeated, Ellis returns as he looks to prove he has what it takes to turn from prospect to contender.

“I need to make a statement,” said Ellis, who upset highly regarded Terrell Gausha to win the 2010 Националните Златни ръкавици. “The last time I was onShoBoxI got a draw. This is the perfect opportunity for me to show I have what it takes. Ware won’t run – he comes at you, he roughs you up, and he’ll be right there for me to hit. I know what I am up against. I have been working hard, training in different camps and approaching this as the biggest fight of my life. I appreciate SHOWTIME for giving me another opportunity to prove I’m ready for the big show.”

The fan-friendly Ware suffered the first loss of his career last September in a close and entertaining brawl with Cem Kilic onShoBox. The 2013 National Golden Gloves Bronze Medalist will look to return to the win column as he faces his third consecutive unbeaten opponent. The 30-year-old’s career-best victory came last year over 2012 Olympian and previously undefeated prospect Enrique Collazo. A former collegiate football player at the University of Toledo, Ware also works fulltime as a firefighter in his hometown of Toledo.

“My last time out onShoBox was great, but unfortunately I didn’t come out victorious,” Ware said. “This time I’m looking to come out with my arm raised at the end of the fight. Ronald Ellis is a tough fighter, and I commend and respect anyone who steps in that square circle. I know a win against a tough, undefeated guy is what I need to get me on track to winning a world title. I see big things happening for me after a win like this. The sky is the limit after this win.”

The 20-year-old Yoon, who was born and raised in Honolulu, отидох 100-11 as an amateur before turning professional in 2016. Gifted with one-punch power, Yoon started his career with 10 straight knockouts before earning a unanimous decision over former world champion Juan Carlos Salgado in just his 11тата professional fight. Yoon fought five times in 2018, and his level of opposition has steadily increased as he has gained experience.

“This is a great opportunity to show the world what I already know – that I’m one of the best young fighters in the game,” Yoon said. “A win at this point of my career will open up new doors and will get me one step closer to where I want to be. We’re studying our opponent and putting a plan together for February 1. It will be my job to execute it.”

Zamora hails from Matehuala, San Luis Potosí, Мексико, where he compiled an amateur record of 60 wins against just four losses. The 25-year-old won the silver medal at the Mexican National Amateur Championships before turning professional in 2012. Zamora has fought his entire career in Mexico and will make his U.S. debut on February 1. He has won five straight since a 2017 loss to Antonio Moran, who recently dropped a close decision to Jose Pedraza.

“This will be my first fight in America and I’m thrilled that it will be onShoBox,” Zamora said. “I will win this for my parents that sacrificed a lot for me and for my wife and son – I can’t let them down. I am coming to win and to show everybody that Mexico will always produce proud champions.”

Born in Puerto Rico, the 24-year-old Nova fought as an amateur in the U.S. where he compiled a stellar record of 167-11. Нова, who fights out of Albany, N.Y., was the No. 1 ranked 141-pound fighter in the United States and won gold at the 2014 U.S. National Boxing Championships. He turned professional in 2016 shortly after losing a close decision in the Olympic Trials to Gary Antuanne Russell. The hard-hitting super featherweight picked up five wins in 2018 and will face just his second undefeated opponent on February 1.

“I’m looking forward to making myShoBox debut and the fact that it’s in Upstate New York makes it even more special,” Nova said. “I’ll have many of my friends, family and fans in attendance, so I plan on making a statement. You don’t want to miss it.”

Wahab was born in Nigeria but fought as an amateur for Ghana, where he was a three-time national amateur champion. He has fought his entire professional career in Africa, where he has already been in five-scheduled 12 кръгли боеве. The 28-year-old Wahab is mentored by Ghanaian great Azumah Nelson, who is widely considered the greatest African boxer of all time.

“In all honesty, I’ve watched his fights, and I respect all fighters, but Nova hasn’t seen a fighter like me yet,” Wahab said. “I’ll be leaving New York undefeated.”
