VERONA, Nova York (Agost 13, 2016) – Undefeated rising contender Miguel Flores (21-0, 9 KOs) defeated exciting featherweight contender Ryan Kielczweski (25-2, 7 KOs) per decisió unànime (97-93, 96-94, 96-94) en l'esdeveniment principal a 10 assalts de Lliga de Campions de Boxa a ESPN i ESPN Esports de Turning Stone Resort Casino a Verona, Nova York.
In an action-packed fight during which both fighters threw over 750 cops, the Houston native Flores was slightly more fluid and able to do enough work on the inside to keep his unblemished record intact.
Flores said, “I thought I would hurt him with body shots, so we did a lot of work down there tonight. I think my movement was the difference. Ryan said I couldn’t move, but I showed him and everyone else that I can.
As Flores appeared to be stealing the early rounds, Kielczweski stepped on the gas at the midway point, throwing punches in bunches and landing regularly throughout the second half of the bout.
Kielczweski said, “I thought we fought a great fight tonight for the fans. I started a little slow, but I really picked it up in the fifth round.
The increased activity was a little too belated to salvage the fight for the Quincy, MA native.
Kielczweski added, “I was gaining steam in the second half of the fight. I can’t say that I won, but I thought it could have been a draw. It was a good fight though, and I will be back.
An excited Flores said, “It felt great to get this win tonight. I boxed and banged it out with (Kielczweski). He had some pop, and in the last round he got me with a good body shot, but we are used to tough fights like this. I like it like that. This is fun to me. We will watch the video and correct what I know were a lot of mistakes, but I believe I’m ready for the next level. I’m ready for the top contenders.
Televised coverage kicked off with Olympic bronze medalist Yordenis Ugas (16-3, 7 KOs) defeating contender Jamal James (20-1, 9 KOs) per decisió unànime (99-91, 98-92, 96-94) in a technical 10-round welterweight showdown.
Three days ago, James stepped in to replace undefeated welterweight Bryant Perrella, who was forced to withdraw from tonight’s bout because of an injury to his left thumb. James was coming off just 27 of days rest following his July 16 split decision victory over Wale Omotoso.
Ugas fought last 825 days ago when he lost his second consecutive bout, the third defeat of his career. No obstant això, Ugas showed no sign of ring rust el divendres night as he casually controlled the action against James.
Ugas, a five-time Cuban National Champion, used his tremendous experience and was able to neutralize Jamesheight advantage.
We focused on the body because (James) was tall,” said Ugas. “So we planned on chopping him down, and that’s what I did.
Although Ugas had initially been preparing for his long-awaited comeback against the left handed Perrella, he had no difficulty with the orthodox James.
Ugas added, “I followed my corner’s instructions and won round by round. I felt very consistent in there tonight.
Knowing that he’d come up short, James said, “I thought it was a good fight. (Ugas) brought it tonight. I was fighting his fight unfortunately. I started to outpoint him late, so I should have started earlier with my combinations and countering. I was trying to knock him out and I should have just boxed.
James added, “I have no excuses though, I am a grown man and could have said ‘noto taking this fight. But fighting is what I do. Other fighters are not doing what I did tonight. És clar Amb Gust, if I had more time to prepare I might have done better, but I am a fighter.
On his prospects moving forward, Ugas said, “After the long layoff, this is a new beginning for me, and now I am looking for a big opportunity in my next fight. It felt good to get back to fighting.
A resilient James summed things up adding, “A fight like tonight makes me hungrier to get back in the gym and get myself ready to come back again better than ever.

MIGUEL FLORES
On fighting in his first main event on ESPN
I’m very thrilled to be fighting in my first main event on ESPN because I know many boxing fans from around the world will be tuning in. I feel I bring an exciting style to the ring that the fans will enjoy. It’s fights like this, on a major TV network like ESPN, that take your brand to another level. So the goal is to perform at my best ability and bring even more excitement to the featherweight division.
On his recent training camp
Training camp has been very hard, but I know that hard work will pay off when it’s all said and done. I’ve had a lot of time to prepare for this fight so I’ll be at my best. My longtime trainer, Aaron Navarro, and my strength and conditioning coach, Edward Jackson, have been pushing me really hard. Together as a team, we will be ready to shine aquest divendres.”
On his matchup with Ryan Kielczweski
Kielczweski is a very tough opponent. He’s a very good boxer with a tremendous amount of skill. He only has one loss, which was a split decision, així que per a mi, he could easily be an undefeated fighter. Amb això es diu, I know I have to be at my best.
On the landscape of the featherweight division
The featherweight division is loaded with great fighters. Carl Frampton, Leo Santa Creu, Gary Russell, and all the other title holders are very skilled fighters. With each win, I’m inching closer to facing all of them.
On fighting on the East Coast for the first time in his career
All my fights have been in Texas with the exception of a couple. So traveling to the East Coast will be something new for me. I plan to get there a few days early to get acclimated to the climate. Kielczweski is from Massachusetts, which is not far from the venue, so I know I’ll be up against all his hometown fans. I’m not worried about it. I just want to put on a great show, win this fight and capture all his fans in the process.

Mashantucket, Conn. (Abril. 17, 2016) – WBC Featherweight World Champion Gary Russell Jr.. retained his title with a remarkable TKO of Irishman Patrick Hyland Dissabteon SHOWTIME from Fox Theater at Foxwoods Resort Casino in Mashantucket, Conn. En la baralla co-estel·lar, Jose Pedraza defended his IBF Junior Lightweight title with a unanimous decision over Stephen Smith.

 

Aquesta nit de event was a family affair with Russell Jr. working his brother Antonio’s corner during aquesta nit undercard and boxing’s Smith brothers, including current WBO Super Welterweight World Champion Liam Smith, cheering from the crowd.

 

A relentless Russell brought the main event to a quick halt by registering three knockdowns in the second round, the last of which forced referee Danny Schiavone to end the contest at 1:33. Des de la primera campana, el Washington, D.C. native came out swinging with his trademark hand speed and dangerous power. Russell, a southpaw, successfully broke down—and knocked out—Hyland with multiple vicious right hooks.

 

“We stuck to the game plan. We stayed sharp,” said Russell Jr., que millora el seu rècord a 27 victòries, one loss, 15 nocauts.

 

“I’m ready to fight anyone in the division – Santa Cruz, Llegeix Selby. We are ready. But what I really want is [Vasyl] Lomachenko. I don’t care if he moves up to 147 lliura. I will go anywhere to get that fight,” Russell said.

 

“There aren’t many fighters who you instantly know are special,” said SHOWTIME Sports expert analyst Steve Farhood. “The combination of Gary Russell’s hand speed and accuracy instantly shows us that he’s special. That was plainly evident aquesta nit and at times his hand speed was frightening.”

 

Pedraza (22-0, 12 KOs) remained disciplined and came out victorious during his second IBF 130-pound world title defense. A combination of timing, hand speed and good defense allowed the Puerto Rican native to dominate the 12-round championship fight.

 

“This definitely was a tough fight but the training really came to advantage in this fight,” Pedraza told SHOWTIME Sports reporter Jim Gray. “I knew he was a tough fighter so I was always aware.”

 

“I had better focus aquesta nit. I had a better training camp,” said Pedraza, referring to his controversial split decision win over Edner Cherry two fights ago. “I knew that Stephen Smith was a great fighter and even after the knockdown, we were very cautious not to rush in.”

 

“Pedraza won aquesta nit with different weapons. Mostly right hands to the head,"Va dir Farhood. “I had the fight even after eight rounds and once Pedraza dropped Smith in the ninth, he gained momentum that he never lost and he pulled away. It was an impressive performance but also an important one because it erased a lot of the negative criticism Pedraza received in his controversial win over Edner Cherry.”

 

Pedraza was the more accurate fighter, aterratge 50 percent of his power punches over the 12-round bout. The Sniper was able to pick his spots and pocket rounds once he figured out the distance. Smith had his moments, but wasn’t active enough.

 

Brian Custer hosted the SHOWTIME telecast, amb Mauro Ranallo calling the action, Hall of Fame analyst En Bernstein and former two-time world champion Paulie Malignaggi commentating and Jim Gray la presentació d'informes. En la transmissió simultània espanyol, Alejandro Lluna called the blow-by-blow and former world champion Raúl Márquez served as color commentator. The executive producer of SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING was David Dinkins Jr.. amb Bob Dunphy dirigent.

(26-1, 15 KOs), de Capitol Heights, Md., and Irish contender Patrick Hyland (31-1, 15 KOs), of Dublin, faced off at the final press conference Dimecres at Highline Ballroom in New York, as they approach d'aquest dissabte Featherweight World Title fight live on TEMPS DE LA FUNCIÓ® from the Fox Theater in Foxwoods Resort Casino in Mashantucket, Connecticut.
La SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING® telecast begins live at 11 p.m. I/8 p.m. PT on SHOWTIME with IBF Junior Lightweight World Championship clash between unbeaten Puerto Rican Jose Pedraza (21-0, 12 KOs) and mandatory challenger Stephen Smith (23-1, 13 KOs), of Liverpool, Anglaterra.
Here’s what the fighters had to say at Dimecres de final press conference.
GARY RUSSELL JR.
(On Patrick Hyland…)
“Primer i abans que res, I gotta tip my hat off to him. I heard him say he was being trained by his father. Me and my younger brothers are also trained by my dad. My father is my favorite superhero, so it is very hard to deal with a situation like this and to bounce back and to grind and put all the hard work and effort into it after all the heartache and loss, I gotta tip my hat off to him for that.
I know that anytime you have a fighter that trains for six to eight weeks and prepares for no one else but you, is a dangerous fight. És alt, he’s long, but we can take him. We’re going to handle it.
(On returning from injury…)
“Em sento bé. Estic a punt; I put the work in at the gym. Com he dit abans, I got cussed out several times and sometimes I left the gym feeling like the worst fighter ever. Però, ara mateix, we’re ready and we’re prepared to invest in my ability.
(On what it means to have his brother Antonio on the card he’s headlining…)
It means a lot. I’m looking forward to it. I’m actually more looking forward to watching my brother compete than my own fight. I will definitely be working his corner in that fight. It means a lot for us to be able to pass this information down from generation to generation and watch it grow and watch us build as a family and as a unit. It’s amazing.
He definitely has the potential to be the best. Him as well as Antuanne, who is now on the 2016 Olympic team. It’s all information passed down from generation to generation. I feel as though they definitely have the ability to be better than me. I would want them to be anyway.
(On what he needs to win the fight…)
I need to maintain control of the fight, close the distance and maintain the jab. Complete dominance; I want to touch the body early. He likes to move a lot, so we’re going to cut all that down.
(On potential future opponents…)
God willing, everything goes right come Abril 16, we would love to unify with Lee Selby. If I had my choice, I would go with Lee Selby first to unify. Immediately after that, I want Leo Santa Cruz and after that I need Lomachenko.
I don’t care where [Lomachenko] moves. He can lose his next 10 baralles, but before my career’s done he has to see me.
PATRICK HYLAND
(On what gives him the sense of satisfaction in boxing…)
To fight for the WBC title is everything I’ve dreamed of since I was a kid and all of the hard work that I have put in to get to this position to fight for it. I am happy and I am just living for it now for Dissabte nit.”
(On being the first Irish boxer since Barry McGuigan to hold a featherweight world title…)
It’s a whirlwind and it’s great. I’m just a local lad from Johnstown in Dublin and to be fighting on the big stage and to be fighting for a major world title, and again to be named the second featherweight ever to win a world title would be just amazing; a real dream come true for myself.
(On Gary Russell…)
I know he’s got fast hands. He’s a great southpaw and a great boxer so I have to be at the best of my ability en dissabte night for that. I worked on a game plan in the gym to counter his hand speed and it all has to come together on fight night. I can do all this and say all that, but I just have to perform en dissabte night and put it in by doing everything I’ve worked on to become champion.
JOSE PEDRAZA
(On training camp)
I am feeling really good, we’re in the last stretch of conditioning. It was a very long and intense training camp but we saw improvements in my abilities. I have been waiting a long time for this day to come and we are going to demonstrate to Smith that I am a weapon.
(On Stephen Smith)
Smith is a very good boxer, he has a lot of abilities and intelligence. He’s a boxer with very good defense, but we already utilize a variety of strategies to be able to neutralize all of his abilities.
(On what he plans to demonstrate en dissabte…)
With my abilities, tal com Dissabte, I will demonstrate that I am above Smith and that I am at the level of what I am, a champion. Total, I just want to put on a show and I hope that the fan base will enjoy this great card.
(On what he learned from fighting Edner Cherry)
I learned what I have always said and what I have always done to this very day, which is never watching. I never watch too many videos of my opponent because on the day of the fight he could be a completely different fighter and I think that is what occurred then. Aside from that, he utilized a great strategy.
(On his thoughts on other Puerto Rican boxers)
Actually I am a world champion just like Rocky Martinez; there are many Puerto Rican prospects. Like [Felix] Verdejo but I don’t consider him as a world title contender just yet. He hasn’t fought with a boxer of championship caliber but he is currently among the top fighters in Puerto Rico.
(On other fights he may be interested in at 130 lliura…)
I have always said that the less Puerto Ricans I fight, la millor. If it is the last option, I will fight with Puerto Ricans too but aside from that Rocky [Martínez] the world champ, there’s Francisco Vargas, [Javier] Sort, to name a few that are at the top of my list.
STEPHEN SMITH
(On his first time fighting in the U.S….)
“Estic emocionat. If you want to make a name in boxing, then you’re going to do it in the states and that’s what I plan on doing by becoming a world champion Saturday.
(On what he knows about Pedraza)
“Bé, not quite a lot. I know his name from the amateur days. He’s well established, he’s an Olympian and he’s a talented man. To fight somebody consists of winning or not, it goes beyond tactics, beyond style and beyond skillset really. I believe I have what it takes to fight anyone and nothing will keep me from becoming a world champion.
(On what he needs to do to get the victory)
It can be a different type of fight; we know he likes to switch it up and box from different stances. He’s obviously talented so it’s going to take a different set from each way but we know what to expect. I’ve gone over everything with my trainer Joe Gallagher and we’re ready to go.
(On his brothers Liam and Callum being champions and what it could mean to potentially join them)
It’s special. Two weeks ago Liam and Callum won a European world title and it just gives me the confidence, the spirit to hike. I’m in a really good place mentally and I couldn’t be feeling better going into it. After my boot camp going successfully, it just makes you feel better going ahead to become a world champion.
(On UK champions on the rise in the past year)
There’s a lot of history there and for myself and my family, so we do what we’ve always wanted to do and we’re looking to just keep moving forward.
TRAINER JOE GALLAGHER
(On training camp)
It was good. Obviously it boiled up to Callum’s win. There’s a good momentum. Callum and then Stephen has his world title opportunity. It’s been a slow burning rise with Stephen but he’s got, as I call it ‘his World Cup final’ — something that is going to take heart and strength. His strength is going very well. Pedraza is a very good fighter, good orthodox, good southpaw, he can mix it up and we’re prepared for whatever style he wants to bring en dissabte.”
(On the process of preparing for a fighter like Pedraza)
It’s a nightmare. It’s hard enough when you’re fighting a quality orthodox or a quality southpaw, of which he is, but not only that. He can also box on the back foot and on the front foot so we’re varying sparring partners, we’re mixing up the sparring in between the rounds, switching stances, and whichever way Pedraza wants to fight at the end of the night, I’m sure we’ll have an answer for.
(On how he feels the fight will play out)
I think that’s all up to Pedraza, looking back at a few of his fights, he boxes slow and gets off to a good start but then he seems to lose his way a little in rounds. When you watch him against [Andrey] Klimov, he started out very well, put him under manners very quickly and had him nearly beat by the fourth round but [Andrey] managed to stay in very well and boxed really well. He got to the middle rounds, lost his way a little bit, switched southpaw, so either way it’s going to be fascinating. We’ve just got to make sure we don’t get caught to early when he’s quick and he’s sharp and he’s trying to put manners in Stephen Smith and then take him into the deep waters like Edner Cherry.
(His prediction)
Stephen Smith. Possibly by knockout. No, definitely by knockout.

“Vaig treballar en aquest cop durant sis setmanes,” Bracero said after the fight. “En la meva última baralla, I fought a southpaw and made some mistakes. I specifically worked on that punch because Danny’s a southpaw. I slipped to the side and threw the right. This was the first time I went away to camp, lluny de la meva família.
“Estic molt honrat i agraït. Jo sabia que venia aquí que tota la pressió estava sobre ell (O'Connor); la multitud tractava de prendre la bèstia fora de mi i em va posar en la defensa.
Tot funcionarà (pel que fa a la seva pròxima baralla). I’ll let Tommy Gallagher iLou DiBella take care of my next fight. I’m ready to go right back in the gym.
O'Connor va ser traslladat en ambulància a l'pròxim Hospital de Lowell General d'observació.

CITES DE COMBAT
GABRIEL BRACERO:
“Déu beneeixi a Danny O'Connor. Ell és un campió. El fet que ell va perdre avui, Encara em trec el barret davant seu. Es necessita un veritable campió de venir aquí i fer el que fa. Li desitjo la millor.
“És una sensació increïble. La veritat és, Jo era un guanyador abans que jo vaig entrar al ring. Això és un somni fet realitat. He somiat amb aquest dia durant molt de temps. Vaig cometre alguns errors en els meus baralles anteriors, però em vaig anar de nou al tauler de dibuix, se'n va anar al campament, fix meus errors i va arribar aquí avui súper enfocada.
Pel que va dir O'Connor després de la baralla…
“El meu missatge a Danny era, després de la meva última baralla, després de la meva última derrota, Jo era a baix. Vaig passar per una depressió. Li vaig dir que no a deixar que això passi a ell. Per recollir-se a si mateix una còpia de seguretat, estar orgullós de si mateix. Per anar a casa la seva bella dona i fills i gaudir de la vida. No volia que el mateix passi amb ell, que em va passar a mi.”
JONATHAN GUZMAN:
“He demostrat que puc lluitar i puc colpejar. Aquesta baralla va ser un exemple del que puc fer.
“A partir de la segona volta he lluitat amb les dues mans lastimadas. No importava a les meves mans, Jo anava a aturar-lo.”
RYAN KIELCZWESKI:
“Abans d'aquesta lluita, Jo sabia que podia perforar. Vaig pensar que vaig evitar durant tota la baralla, però en el desè round, ell em va aconseguir. Se sentia prou bo per ser sacsejat per primera vegada, només per saber el que se sent.”
“Jo com que vaig començar lent, però en els assalts intermedis, Vaig començar a posar els meus cops junts, tirar de quatre, de cinc, 06:00 cops a la vegada i que estava treballant. Però va tornar cada vegada i va començar a negociar amb mi.
(En anar 10 rondes…)
“Tot és el mateix. Ets tan cansat després d'una baralla a quatre assalts com vostè és després de les sis, eight or 10. You leave it all till the end of the fight. Tot se sent la mateixa.
(Per fer-se mal en el desè….)
“Jo no sabia on tenia els peus. Era una sensació estranya, No tenia ni idea del que se sentia com. Ell em va trucar i jo podia veure directament, però vaig sentir que em va esquerra i dreta.
He’s a tough guy. I really needed that fight.
We knew he wasn’t much of a volume pincher. It didn’t surprise us when he came on in the middle rounds.
“La sang no estava en el meu ull. Jo no sabia que estava tallat fins que l'àrbitre es va acostar.
I like to entertain in the ring. I don’t need to do this. I do it because I like to fight and entertain.
This was my favorite venue to fight in as an amateur. I fought here 10-15 vegades com un aficionat.”
RAFAEL VAZQUEZ:
“Era un lluitador slick, que mogut i tenia un gran poder. Ell estava en bon estat. És jove, Seré 38 aquest any. Sense excuses, Em vaig traslladar fins 126 lliures per enfrontar-s'hi, Estic 122 lliura.
“Vaig pensar que havia guanyat les tres últimes rondes. Especialment la ronda novè i desè. La desena ronda era gran. Ell potser connectat 10 cops en tota la ronda. Li va sacsejar. El llastimar. Però, estem lluitant a la seva ciutat natal, i estic agraït per donar-me l'oportunitat.”
Cartellera
Pes pesat polonès Adam Kownacki (12-0, 10 KOs), lluitant des de Brooklyn, va mantenir el seu rècord invicte intacte, convertint en un esforç raonable per guanyar una decisió unànime de vuit assalts (78-73 X 3) sobre Rodney Hernández (8-3-1, 1 KO).

SEGÜENT la tràgica pèrdua del seu pare i entrenador contendre IRLANDÈS PATRICK HYLAND porta un cor pesat com sembla trobar consol en el ring la nit de dissabte

DEVOLUCIONS a la cartellera de PBC ON NBCSN AT Lowell Memorial Auditorium a Lowell, MISSA.
LOWELL, Missa. (10/9/15) – En dissabte nit, Contendent classificat mundial irlandès Patrick Hyland (30-1, 14 KOs) faces David Martinez on the undercard of the PBC on NBCSN event from Lowell, Missa. The fight won’t be shown on television, Hyland veu aquesta és la baralla més important de la seva carrera com ell treballa el seu camí de retorn a la contesa pel títol mundial.
La baralla en dissabte night will be the first in a career that dates back to his days as a 9-year-old amateur in Ireland where his trainer, father and best friend Patrick Sr. no estarà en el seu cantó. Patrick Sr., millor conegut com arròs, tràgicament mort a la primavera d'aquest any. En sortir de la comunitat de la boxa irlandès va commocionar.
“Sento la seva veu en la part de darrere del meu cap cada dia. Cada dia. Especialment al gimnàs encara que quan estic formació,” said Hyland Jr.
La pèrdua del pare de Hyland es va produir tot just setmanes abans de l'esposa de Hyland Lorna va donar a llum al seu primer fill, Callum, a més d'afegir a la importància d'aquesta lluita.
I challenged Javier Fortuna for the world championship,” said Hyland. “Vaig guanyar el títol mundial d'Irlanda. He lluitat al MGM Grand, l'O2 Arena i el Madison Square Garden. Per a mi, però, this is the most important fight of my career. No només estic lluitant pel meu fill acabat de néixer, però jo estic lluitant per mantenir viu el llegat del meu pare. Ell em va fer l'home que sóc avui i l'home que jo vull que el meu fill algun dia es converteixi en. Winning a world title was our dream that we had together. He was always pushing me and my brothers to be the absolute best that we can be, i no pararé fins que arribi una altra oportunitat per un títol mundial.”
La baralla en dissabte night will be Hyland’s fourth since the lone loss of his career, una decisió de 12 assalts molt entretingut pel títol ploma interí contra l'ara actual campió súper ploma Javier Fortuna. Following the loss to Fortuna, Hyland was out of action for a year and a half, mentre revisava temes promocionals. Hyland va signar amb DiBella Entertainment al juny de 2014 and has since put together three impressive victories. Hyland believes that he will be knocking on the door to challenge for another world title in 2016.
“Tinc un gran equip darrere meu. El meu manager Brian Peters i el promotor Lou DiBella estan treballant dur,” seguit Hyland. “Mentre segueixo guanyar i fer el que he de fer, Sé que em van a tenir l'oportunitat de provar-me a mi mateix i demostrar que sóc un dels millors 126 lliures en el món. 2016 serà un gran any per a mi i estic totalment d'esperar per ser una vegada més un repte per a un tros de la corona de pes ploma.”

Vegi aquí el que els participants havien de dir Dimecres:
DANNY O'CONNOR
“Això té a veure amb la lluita contra mi el procés. Gabriel Bracero beat me but I really beat myself. Just like training for this fight, we had a baby son. Two weeks before our first fight, my first son was born and I didn’t know how to separate sport from such life-changing events. Jo era 14-0 i la lluita per Showtime. We just had a baby boy two weeks before this fight. I want to prove to myself that I can beat this process. Bracero is my redemption!
“Aquesta lluita és contra mi. em. The time was right for this fight. I was offered this fight five times during the past few years but the time wasn’t right.
I was a scared little kid with no experience in our first fight. I couldn’t handle the pressure, I didn’t even know it was there. Ara, I’m a mature man who is a husband and father. I’m a totally different person.
This fight could be in my living room. I’m at peace in the ring doing what I love to do. It’s great being back in the ring in Lowell, on vaig guanyar el títol de Guants d'Or de Nova Anglaterra i estic lluitant en la televisió nacional, però l'esdeveniment està entre les quatre cantonades i això és el que realment compta.”
GABRIEL BRACERO
“Estic emocionat. I’ve trained for this fight like I’ve never fought Danny before. I beat him but that was four years ago. I can’t overlook him. He has obviously made improvements and I did also to get where we are today.
“Jo sóc més experimentat. I moved to train in Orlando and get away from distractions. I hit a few bumps and got incarcerated. Tommy Gallagher (entrenador) saved my lie. He was there when I went to prison and there when I got out. I added a new trainer to our corner, Alexander Lopes, però Tommy i el meu pare, Kiro, are still there. Tommy gives the orders and he likes what Lopez has done with me.
Tommy Gallagher is my guardian angel. He believed in me more than I believed in myself. He had this vision before I did.
Danny has become a better fighter. No puc prendre res fora d'ell, però estic mirant endavant a posar en una actuació espectacular Dissabte nit.”
JONATHAN GUZMAN
“Vaig a fer 20-per-20, si! I’m powerful because I make strong moves. My left hook is my best punch. Puc sentir el poder a través de tot el meu cos quan em va colpejar algú dreta.
“No em preocupo per la meva oponent o el que ha fet en el passat.
Lawrence is my home now. I will go back to the Dominican Republic in December for the holidays. I feel like a Bostonian. This is the sixth fight I’ve trained here for and I love the Boston Red Sox.
DANNY AQUINO
“La meva última baralla em va impulsar (molest per la decisió sobre Ryan Kielczweski). It made me more confident in myself. La meva última baralla va ser en ESPN i aquest està en NBCSN.
I don’t know too much about my opponent other than he has power that I’ll be looking out for. A win over him should put me in the top 10 i és per això que estic tan motivat per aquesta baralla.
“Vaig guanyar el Campionat Guants d'Or de Nova Anglaterra a Lowell Memorial Auditorium en 2007.
“Entrenament dur i sempre estic en bona forma suficient per guanyar-li a qualsevol.”
RYAN KIELCZWESKI
I like fighting at home and this is one of my favorite venues. I won the New England Golden Gloves there twice.
“He entrenat perquè això sigui la baralla més dura de la meva carrera.
“(Vásquez) is tough with a lot of power. He’s going come forward, però podré amb ell fora de la caixa.
“Està classificat en la part superior 10 del món i una victòria m'hauria de posar de nou en la part superior 10 lluitar per un títol mundial en el pròxim any.”
RAFAEL VASQUEZ
“Aquesta és una gran oportunitat per a mi. I think this fight will put me on the map fighting on national TV and showing fans what I’ve got.
“Sóc una fam, small fighter determined to win. I fight for my wife, Sandra, que té l'escenari i 4 càncer i el meu fill de vuit anys d'edat, filla, Kaline, who has autism. It’s not just me fighting in the ring, it’s the Vasquez family. With God’s grace, tot és possible.
“Ryan es mou molt. He uses the ring and boxes. He lost to Aquino and I know he’ll be coming back to prove himself. “
GARY “SPIKE” O'SULLIVAN
Boston is my second home. I love it here. The people are so nice and there are good gyms.
“Sóc un emocionant, combat entretingut que sempre ve a barallar.
“Després que acabi fora Eubanks, Vaig a ser el núm. 1 competidor a l'AMB i Golovkin no em pot mantenir per més temps.
I watched a few clips of my opponent. We have identical records. We both knock people out, so I have to be careful. I’d like to get in a few rounds, però quan vaig arribar a la gent, cauen.”
STEPHEN ORMOND
My first four fights were here in the US. Boston is like my second home. The people are so nice. Boston is a real fight city. I can’t wait for these people to see me in the ring.
I saw my opponent fight last year in Boston. He’s an experienced guy with a lot of fights. He fought for a world title a long time ago.
“Amb Ken Casey darrere meu, an impressive victory will get me a title shot. I’ll take any of them. Jo era una baralla, losing a qualifier. My grandmother passed away the day of my fight. I’m ready now!”

En l'altra baralla televisada programada, Dominicana invicte supergallo artista KOJonathan “Salomon Rei” Guzmán (19-0, 19 KOs), lluitant fora de la propera Lawrence (Massachusetts), adquireix de Connecticut malestar de ment Danny Aquino (17-2, 10 KOs) en la baralla co-estel·lar de 10 assalts.
Boston vs. Nova York és un duel clàssic que ha dominat els titulars esportius al nord-est durant anys com els Yankees de Nova York i els Mitjanes Rojas de Boston va lliurar incomptables guerres mentre que els Patriotes de Nova Anglaterra es van enfrontar als New York Giants en dos Super Bowls i van continuar la seva llarga rivalitat amb el Nou York Jets. La rica tradició d'aquesta rivalitat també s'ha vessat al ring com molts millors peleadores de cada regió s'han enfrontat a-off en els últims anys.
La primera Boston significatiu vs. NYC lluita es remunta a 1927 en el Yankee Stadium, quan Jack Dempsey detingut Gat “El Boston Gob” Sharkey en el setè assalt de la seva eliminatòria pel títol de pes pesat per desafiar campió del món Gene Tunney. Controversy surrounded this fight as Sharkey, un mariner en el U.S. Marina, lluitat al seu ídol de la boxa, Dempsey, qui juntament amb Babe Ruth ruled Manhattan during America’s Golden Age of Sports in the 1920s. Sharkey out-boxed Dempsey for six rounds until, protestar a l'àrbitre sobre cops baixos de Dempsey, va ser noquejat amb un ganxo d'esquerra de somni.
Un altre campió de pes pesat llegendària de la zona de Boston, Rocky Marcià, no hi hauria retirat amb el seu famós 49-0 record if one round or another were scored differently against Bronx favorite Roland LaStarza in 1950. Marciano took a questionable 10-round decision from LaStarza at Madison Square Garden. Tres anys més tard, al Pol Grounds, Marcià va defensar amb èxit el seu títol mundial, noquejar Lastarza al 11ºassalt de la seva 1953 Baralla de l'Any.
Un parell de Saló de la Fama dels pesos pesants de Brooklyn, Floyd Patterson i “Planxa” Mike Tyson, respectivament, noquejar a Boston Tom McNeeley i el seu fill, Peter McNeeley. McNeeley dropped Patterson once but he hit the deck 11 vegades abans de sucumbir finalment en el quart assalt de la seva 1961 title fight in Toronto. His son, Peter, va perdre per desqualificació en primera ronda a Tyson qui lluitava per primera des que va ser alliberat de la presó.
Un bomber de Boston amb les mans fràgils, Paul Pender, dues vegades derrotat sens dubte el consens més gran de tots els temps, Harlem “Sucre” Ray Robinson, no una vegada, sinó dues vegades per 15 assalts divideix decisions en 1960 títol mundial de pes mitjà baralla al Boston Garden.
“Meravellós” Marvin Hagler, 1 trasplantat lluitador de New Jersey, que vivia a la ciutat natal de Marcià de Brockton, Missa., vaig sentir estafat quan se li va donar un empat en la seva primera baralla de títol mundial contra el campió defensor de Brooklyn Vito Antuofermo in Las Vegas. Dos anys després, en 1981, Hagler va capturar la corona cobejat al Boston Garden com Antuofermo va retirar després de quatre rondes.
Fins i tot Lowell “Irlandès” Micky Ward tenia un rival de la ciutat de Nova York a Brooklyn Zab Judah, who he dropped a hard-fought 12-round decision to in 1998. For many years Judah said Ward was the toughest opponent he ever fought.
Més recentment, Irish olímpic Kevin McBride, lluitant fora de la secció de Dorchester de Boston, va acabar la carrera de Tyson en 2005 amb una victòria per nocaut tècnic en el sisè assalt que va deixar el món de la boxa en estat de xoc, i Boston pes pesat John Ruiz – l'únic campió de pes pesat llatí del món – guanyat 2008 barallar a Mèxic en contra de Harlem Jameel McCline per decisió en 12 assalts en una eliminatòria pel títol mundial.
En Octubre 10, O'Connor, Bracero, Kielczweski i Vázquez tindran la seva oportunitat no només de representar a les seves ciutats d'origen, però per gravar a si mateixos en els annals de la rivalitat.
