NASIONALE HARBOR (Maart 25, 2019) – Voormalige wêreldkampioen Sergey Lipinets (15-1, 11 Uitklophoue) stopped former two-division champion Lamont Peterson(35-5-1, 17 Uitklophoue)in die tweede ronde 10 Sunday night in an action-packed welterweight showdown that headlined Premier Boxing Champions on FS1 and FOX Deportes from MGM National Harbor in Maryland.

I feel great about the statement I made to the welterweight division,” said Lipinets. “I just fought an excellent fighter. This let me know where I’m at in the 147-pound weight class. I went into deep waters and showed that I belong.

The fight featured near non-stop action and a thrilling finish, already earning Fight of the Year buzz after itsconclusion. Peterson only occasionally retreated in defense for a moment or two while Lipinets was determined to close off the distance, making sure he didn’t let Peterson use his reach advantage, while using his own varied attack on the inside to occasional success.

You can see that I have no problem with the size,” said Lipinets. “Peterson is an excellent fighter with unbelievable skills and he’s showed me what I can really do.

Peterson was dedicated to attacking the body, punctuating numerous combinations with vicious left hooks to the midsection. He was the busier fighter but was still taking shots from Lipinetscombination of hooks, uppercuts and body shots. Eventually one of those shots appeared to change the tide of the fight, when a straight right from Lipinets connected and clearly hurt Peterson.

The counter put Peterson on his back foot and in survival mode for the final minute of the eighth round until hearing the bell. With the momentum sharply turning toward Lipinets through round nine and midway through round 10, Lipinets finally landed a sweeping left hook during an exchange that hurt Peterson and signaled that the end was near.

It was back and forth and we were hitting each other with some good shots,” sê Peterson. “It kind of just came out of nowhere at the end.

Lipinets followed up and put Peterson on the canvas as the towel came in from Peterson’s corner, stopping the fight at 2:59 van die tweede ronde 10.

The exciting action fight featured both fighters throwing a career high number of punches, according to CompuBox. Both fighters landed a nearly identical number of power punches (189-188 for Peterson), with Lipinets landing 23 in each of the final two rounds.

You’ve seen what I did at 140-pounds and now what I can do here,” said Lipinets. “I made a big jump in competition from my last fight to this one. My new trainer Joe Goossen gets all the credit. We’ve had an excellent camp with perfect sparring that taught me a lot and got me ready for tonight.

There were no easy days in our gym for training camp,” said Goossen. “I feel like we clicked together and he got the best out of me because he was so agreeable to my methods and the way I pushed him.

I thought Sergey’s defense was very good tonight. His jab worked good and he put real pressure on. The left uppercut was a good shot for him and he used a variety of punches in this fight to get it done.

Na afloop van die stryd. Peterson, along with lifelong trainer and fellow Washington, D.C.-native Barry Hunter, announced his retirement from boxing in front of his hometown fans after a career that saw him win titles at 140 en 147-pond.

It’s been a long career but today is the day,” sê Peterson. “I’m thankful for the support. I love everyone here and I’m always going to support this area, but I’m sure it’s time for me to hang it up. I couldn’t go out in a better way here at home. This will be the last time you see me in the ring.

The night also featured Anthony Peterson (37-1-1, 24 Uitklophoue), broer Lamont se, as he fought to a split-draw against former champion Argenis Mendez (25-5-2, 12 Uitklophoue) in a back-and-forth super lightweight showdown.

Peterson established his movement early on as he looked to pick his spots to attack Mendez with combinations to the head and body. Peterson flashed good speed and was the busier fighter especially early, often putting Mendez on the defensive during flurries in the first half of the fight.

I could have thrown more punches in the first half of the fight,” said Mendez. “I think that was the difference, but I don’t think you can win the fight on the run.I knew that I was on his home turf and it was in my mind to do a little bit extra. Peterson is a great fighter and he’s good for the sport so I knew that I had to push the fight.

Mendez began the fight looking to counter, but picked up his offense working off of a jab that swelled up Peterson’s left eye in the late rounds of the fight. Mendez was able to land with left hooks and uppercuts to open up his offense as the fight went on.

Last night was actually the first night I really studied Mendez’s fights and I knew he was good and slick,” sê Peterson. “There were times I didn’t engage cause of his countering. I took my time and used my jab and moved.

While Peterson held a robust 137 te 83 advantage in punches landed, it was only a six punch difference in power punches landed. Na 10 rounds all three judges saw the fight differently, with one score of 96-94 for each fighter and the third judge scoring it 95-95 resulting in the split draw.

I didn’t think it was a draw,” said Mendez. “I know every round was close, but I think I won the fight. I don’t want to say it was easy but I think I won comfortably. He was running the whole fight and I was trying to throw counterpunches and catch him.

I can’t be that disappointed because I didn’t lose, but I was just happy to fight in front of my fans,” sê Peterson. “I’ve been out of the ring for a long time and I think did okay, but if the judges saw a draw they saw a draw. I’m not mad about it.

Additional action featured super welterweight contender Jamontay Clark (14-1, 7 Uitklophoue) surviving an early knockdown to earn a narrow unanimous decision over previously unbeaten Vernon Brown (10-1-1, 7 Uitklophoue) na 10 rondtes van aksie.

Brown scored the first big blow of the bout, landing a perfect counter right hook on the inside that sent Clark crashing into the ropes. Referee Kenny Chevalier ruled it a knockdown, determining that Clark had used the ropes to avoid hitting the canvas.

He had the reach and I was trying to catch him. I was throwing my hook but I was a little off. I still think I won the fight. I caught him with the better shots. He was just slapping me with the hook and trying to catch up that way.

Clark was able to survive the onslaught and finish the round and appeared to recover until behing hurt again late in round four. Van daar, Clark began to increase his punch output, out working Brown on his way to a 162 te 97 advantage in total punches landed.

I boxed a little bit better the last few rounds and used my height,” sê Clark. “I made him miss and made him over reach. That was the game plan.

Brown tried to do more work on the inside with big power punches that would hurt Clark and potentially end the fight. Volgens Compubox, net 49 seconds on average per round were fought on the inside, allowing Clark to gain an advantage in the second half of the fight.

Na 10 rounds the judges saw the fight close, but all three ruled in favor of Clark with totals of 96-93 twee keer en 95-94.

I’ve been down before and I’ve seen the worst of the worst,” sê Clark. “This was nothing. I just kept grinding. I got the win and now I’m going to sit down and see what’s next for me.

If they want to do it again, let’s do it again,” gesê Brown. “Let’s make it a 12 veelsydige. I don’t think he can survive 12 rondes saam met my. My coach knew that I needed the knockout but it’s still on to the next. I’m just going to go into the gym and work even harder.

Prior to the main telecast, PBC Prelims on FS1 saw Aaron Coley (16-2-1, 7 Uitklophoue) win a split-decision over Brandon Quarles (21-5-1, 10 Uitklophoue) deur tellings van 77-75 for Quarles and 79-73 en 78-74 for Coley after eight-rounds of super welterweight action.

Quebec City, QUEBEC (April 1, 2015) – During Woensdag se final press conference at Le Bonne Entente in Quebec City, beide Adonis “Superman” Stevenson en Sakio “Die Scorpion” Bul promised a knockout when they meet in the main event of the debut presentation of Premier Boxing Champions (PBC) op CBSTelevision Network this Saturday, April 4, by 3 namiddag. EN/Middag PT.

 

The hard-hitting Stevenson (25-1, 21 Uitklophoue) will defend his light heavyweight world championship against former super middleweight world champion Bika (32-6-3, 21 Uitklophoue) in the main event from the Pepsi Coliseum in Quebec City.

 

The case was the same with the co-main event fighters as both undefeated light heavyweight and two-time Russian Olympian Artur Beterbiev (7-0, 7 Uitklophoue) and former light heavyweight world champion Gabriel Campillo (25-6-1, 12 Uitklophoue) expected to win via KO Saterdag middag. Campillo, sporting a Tom Brady jersey, even promised he would win in dramatic fashion like this year’s Super Bowl Champion New England Patriots.

 

Below are quotes from the fighters and trainers from Woensdag se perskonferensie:

 

ADONIS STEVENSON:

I know Sakio is going to try to take my title, but I’m prepared for that.

 

I know he was a champion. I made the move from 168 te 175 pounds and it worked well for me. I expect him to bring his best at 175 pond. He’s a former champ so I’m preparing to face a champion.

 

I’m looking for the KO because I’m from the Kronk Gym. Knockouts sell. But I can go 12 rondes, that’s not a problem. I train for 12 rondes.

 

My trainer has given me a great plan. He knows Sakio Bika very well and we’ll see what happens in the ring.

 

Bika is still going to have the same power moving up in weight. He should actually be stronger.

 

I’m very focused because I know Bika is very dangerous. I know he’s going to come into the ring and try to give me trouble.

 

I’m a knockout artist. I can do a lot in the ring, but first and foremost I’m a knockout artist.

 

I’d love to unify the belts eventually, but I’ll let my manager Al Haymon take care of that.

 

My mentor Emanuel Steward always told me that as soon as I enter the ring the knockout is what sells. I’ll definitely be going for the knockout Saterdag on CBS.

 

I’m ready to go toe-to-toe. Adonis Stevenson vs. Sakio Bika on CBS, baby.

 

 

Saki BULL:

To beat a great fighter you have to be your best. I’m looking to take the WBC title back home.

 

I’ve fought everyoneI’ve never ducked an opponentand I don’t know if he can handle the pressure.

 

I feel more comfortable at 175 pond. I want to test the big boy [Stevenson] and I feel like I can do that. Op Saterdag we’ll see.

 

He’s knocked people out, maar ek het nog nooit uitgeslaan. Op Saterdag I’ll be the one to knock him out.

 

I’m very hungry to get a world title back. I trained very hard at light heavyweight to get a title back.

 

I didn’t come here to Canada just to walk and look around. I came here to take this belt back home and I’m very confident I’m going to do that.

 

Training camp went very well, we put in good work and now we’re here in Canada ready to shock the world.

 

 

JAVAN “SUIKER” HILL:

Training camp was very good as always. Nothing different, just hard work perfecting his boxing and the basic fundamentals. We’re looking for him to make a mistake and catch him.

 

The way you prepare for an unorthodox fighter like Bika is to make sure your basics are sound. You have to have a good jab, you have to have good movement and you have to have ‘super powerAnd I have “Superman.

 

Emanuel also told me the knockout sells. It’s something that we both know and it’s something that is imbedded in us. We’re looking for the knockout on April 4. Sometimes I see things that Adonis is looking to do before he does it. So I’ll just be sitting there waiting for Adonis to catch Sakio Bika making a mistake and getting a knockout.

 

I’m super proud to represent Kronk Gym. That’s why I wear my hat here. Kronk to me is like my family name and that’s what I live by. I was born into Kronk when I was a little kid going to a tournament with my uncle Emanuel and all I remember is the Kronk fighters winning. And that’s what I do now: oorwinning.

 

Adonis is an artist, he’s a KO artist. My voorspelling vir Saterdag is a knockout on CBS.

 

There’s been a lot of talk and now it’s time for action. Toe-to-toe on April 4. Moet dit nie misloop nie.”

 

 

KEVIN CUNNINGHAM:

“Ons het 'n groot oefenkamp. Everyone was relaxed. We had great sparring.

 

He was making 168 pretty easy, but stepping up he’s able to eat whatever he wants. The weight is good. We think he’s going to be good and strong at 175. It’s a good move for him.

 

He’s never had any problems with power, so I think the extra weight and energy should be good for him at light heavyweight.

 

All this talk about Stevenson fighting (Sergey) Kovalev has motivated him pretty good. I think it gave him a pretty good picture of how the business of boxing works. He realizes that when the bell rings he needs to do something about it and he’s motivated by that.

 

I can’t say if Stevenson is overlooking him because I’m not around him enough. But I know the fans and media want to make the Kovalev fight. It was good for Bika to hear that because it motivated him. He knows he has an opportunity to do something about it. Op Saterdag afternoon he can change all that.

 

If Stevenson does what he says he’s going to domeet him in the center of the ring and go toe-to-toethis is going to be a tremendous fight.

 

If he comes to the center of the ring and fights and goes toe-to-toe then this fight won’t go the distance. If Stevenson comes to trade I think he gets knocked out. If he runs around the ring and boxes then it could be a different outcome.

 

 

Artur BETERBIEV:

I don’t think this is a big challenge for me. I’m ready to face the world champions and raise the bar higher. This is just another opponent for me.

 

This is another step that will move me closer to facing the champions at 175 pond. I want to put on a solid fight and show that I’m one of the best fighters in this division.

 

A knockout is never a goal for me. I’m trying to show my work and my dedication in the ring, but usually that’s what happens. Usually I finish with a knockout but that is not my main goal. My main goal is to box and show my skills.

 

My motivation is to face the champions. That’s why I work so hard every day in the gym. I will get there soon.

 

Why not face Kovalev? Ek is gereed. When I turned professional my goal was to meet the champions. He’s a champion now and I’d like to face the champions.

 

 

Gabriel Campillo:

We started training Jan. 1 and camp has been very good. We’ve been working very hard and I think I’m in great condition for this fight.

 

Beterbiev may not have a lot of professional experience, but he’s had a very long amateur career. So we know that he’s ready and is a good opponent for us. We’ll see how he handles things once we get past the 5ste, 6ste en 7ste rondes.

 

To get ready for a hard-hitter like Beterbiev required lots of conditioning training. We worked the neck and the chin a lot. We think we’ve got a great chance in the second half of this fight though considering Beterbiev hasn’t really been tested like that.

 

As for a prediction, I’m going to knock Beterbiev out in the seventh round.

Ek dink dit is baie, baie goed, want ek het [onverstaanbaar] since I’ve been here. I think it’s good for the new generation. It goes for this sport. Vir my, Ek dink dit is perfek. Dit is ideaal omdat, so baie mense [onverstaanbaar] aftree [onverstaanbaar] drug and they never get tested. And now with new generation, Ek dink dit is 'n baie goeie, jy weet, for younger kids to try to see if they want to win. Once you come in this sport you have to have been clean. Dit is 'n perfekte organisasie mense wat betrokke is in te kry en hulle toets. Dit is die ideale ding om te doen.

Q

So beide van julle drie keer getoets sal word, twee keer tydens die oefenkamp, 'n tyd voor die stryd? Is that correct, ouens?

A. Stevenson

Ek weet nie vir hom, but for me it’s three time. And we do a piss test, en ons doen 'n bloedtoets, te.

S. Bul

Ja, for me it was three time. Then two blood testlike blood test and piss test. This is the third time them testing me since I was here.

Q

Die eerste vraag wat gevra is om Adonis oor sy voorbereiding vir die komende stryd en ook die afleiding oor die hele toekomstige potensiaal teenstanders, Ek sou graag wou kry dieselfde vraag weer voeg by Adonis.

 

A. Stevenson

Jy weet, die aard van die dinge soos Bika wild en het getoon hy kom–jy weet, he just keep coming. The kind of stuff like that, I love this kind of stuff because he’s large and keep pressuring. En so, dit wys as jy 'n fout maak, soos wat dan sal dit 'n uitklophou baie gou in die stryd.

Q

My vraag is om te “Sugar” Hill. “Sugar”, Ek wil net weet as jy is tevrede met die styl wat gekies is vir hierdie komende stryd, As dit is die tipe toets wat jy soek as 'n afrigter.

S. Hill

Sover soek na 'n styl vir Adonis te veg–and actually it doesn’t really matter to me. I’m happy with the selection of Sakio Bika. I have no problem with his style. I actually like the style because he’s coming forward. He wants to fight, and Adonis loves to fight. Adonis likes to go to toe-to-toe, and he likes to box. This is important for the maturity and, vir Adonis meer oor boks leer om te kan wees in dit met 'n vegter soos Sakio Bika, wat is 'n sterk, vasberade en taai veteraan wat kan weerstaan. He can take a punch. He’s never been knocked out or anything like that. So, dit is 'n geleentheid vir Adonis te miskien gaan 12 rondes of in die latere rondes, wat kan bou en voeg by sy loopbaan as veg in latere rondes, wat hy in staat was om te doen. Hierdie stryd hier met Bika is 'n toets, en Adonis lief om getoets te word. I love for him to be tested as well. This is the only thing that’s going to make him grow and become more of a talented fighter and become a bigger superstar.

Q

Adonis, soek jy op 'n moeilike 12 ronde stryd of sien jy dit as motivering om die eerste om hierdie man te klop as daardie geleentheid hom voordoen?

A. Stevenson

It is motivation for me. That’s why I train very hard. I know he’s large as well in his punch. And he wants to keep me pressured. I love this kind of style. And if he goes for 12 rondes ek is gereed vir 12 rondes. I fight and spar. My fight is, spaar en opleiding vir 12 rounds.When ek kry in die ring, Ek is op soek na die uitklopfase. I don’t look for the 12 ronde. If he goes the distance or 12 rondes, this is not a problem. Ek kan boks. I’m beautiful. I got a good skill. I’m a Superman. So, it’s not a problem for me. Maar, first I’m looking for a knockout. And I think any boxer going in the ring to fight always looks for a knockout. Soms, it’s not like that. Maar, my, Ek is op soek na die uitklopfase. And Emanuel said knockouts sell.

Q

You said that you weren’t impressed with Kovalev’s performance over Jean Pascal. Do you want to put on a better performance? Do you feel pressure to put on a better performance since you said that? What do you think about that?

A. Stevenson

I’m not going to put pressure on myself. “Superman” nie druk voel. Ek gaan my boks vaardigheid te gebruik, en ek gaan my kop in die ring te gebruik. I don’t have to put pressure on something like that. I don’t feel like that. I’m the man. I’m the guy to get beat.

Q

Was Sakio Bika die eerste teenstander hulle aangebied aan julle?

A. Stevenson

Ja, it was the first. He was the first to open. We’re happy, and we don’t have a problem. And I know Sakio he was light–doen nie, super middleweight champion. It’s very good, want hy is 'n goeie bokser. He was champion last two fights. That’s a good opportunity for him, te, om te gaan van die lig 'n swaargewig my om te veg. And it’s a good opportunity for me, te.

Q

Ek wil hê jy moet vra op watter punt het jy vir jouself sê, “Ek het om te veg,” of “Ek wil Sergey Kovalev te veg al die bande in die afdeling te verenig.” At what point did you say that in your career?

A. Stevenson

I don’t think about Kovalev now. I think about Bika. It doesn’t matter what I said now because I have a fight coming up with Bika. Maar, seker ek wil om te veg vir titels, maar nou–vir nou Ek het Bika in my gesig.

Q

Jy is nie beïndruk met die manier waarop Kovalev kyk in die stryd om die ander week teen Pascal. Hoekom?

A. Stevenson

I’m not impressed by it because this is the first big fight Pascal had since Bernard and he fights one time a year before Bernard Hopkins. So, in four years he fights one time. So, dit is waarom ek nie beïndruk oor wat, omdat Pascal is nie 'n aktiewe bokser soos hy gebruik om terug in die dag wees.

 

Q

Jy weet dat Kovalev, because of the WBC is going to be mandatory. I want to know how hard will you press for that mandatory if you’re successful again.

A. Stevenson

Natuurlik, Ek weet. I’m ready to fight a title. Maar, Ek laat my span, Al HAYMON, omgee wat. Then after that Kovalev we can unify the title. It’s not a problem for me because the two titles he gets now he gets Bernard Hopkins’ titel, en ek moet veg Bernard Hopkins.

Q

Dit is 'n stryd wat gaan wees op nasionale televisie in die Verenigde State van Amerika, free TV. Have you given any thought about the fact that you’ll be performing in front of an audience probably bigger than has ever seen you fight ever?

A. Stevenson

Natuurlik. This is a good opportunity for that. And first of all, Ek wil Al HAYMON bedank vir wat, te, omdat, that’s him putting on the show. And since Muhammad Ali and Sugar Ray Leonard, back in the day it was free. Nou, we offer the public the fight for free and that’s a great opportunity for me. So, I have a good performance for Sakio Bika. Maar, I know Sakio Bika is a tough opponent and he’s very awkward and tough. We’ll prepare for that, en ons is gereed. Dit is ook baie goed vir die jong kinders, kyk na die stryd. Dit is 'n goeie geleentheid vir almal.

Q

Met dat die groot potensiële gehoor kyk wil nie hê dat julle in 'n posisie waar jy is op soek na 'n uitklophou?

A. Stevenson

Natuurlik. That gives me a lot of motivation. That’s why I train really hard for this fight and watch–sodat mense kyk my. Since Muhammad Ali, I’m the first to be poor and the projects. So, Ek is baie, baie gelukkig, and I’m going to put a good performance. Like Emanuel said, uitklophoue verkoop.

Q

Adonis, waar jy opleiding hierdie week? En toe, wanneer is jy eintlik gaan Quebec City?

A. Stevenson

You know I opened a new gym in Quebec City. This is a good opportunity for me to train in my hometown. This is the first time since 2011. Ek kan my kind sien, te. So, Ek is lief vir dat. And we train very hard, my en my afrigter. We put the hard work pay off. This is different. This is a good opportunity for me, en ek hou van wat.

Q

So, jy in Quebec City dan nou?

A. Stevenson

I’m in Montreal now. Quebec City, Ek gaan hierdie week.

Q

So, wanneer jy eintlik gaan na Quebec City?

A. Stevenson

Sondag.

Q

Weer, my question goes to Adonis. I just want to know if a knockout is the result that you absolutely need or would you be disappointed if you didn’t win by a knockout against Bika?

A. Stevenson

I know Bika is a tough opponent. So, Ek is bereid om vir 12 rondes. As die uitklopfase is daar, it’s there. If it’s not, it’s not. Maar, in die ring, Ek is op soek na die uitklopfase. So, dit maak nie saak vir my, but I’m always looking for the knockout. That’s a Kronk. The Kronk Gym and my team we’re looking for that. Since the Kronk it’s been a while. They’re always looking for the knockout. If you’re training in the Kronk Gym and any fighter is looking for the knockout.

Q

Maar, dit gevaarlik kan wees om altyd op soek na 'n uitklophou, want dan as jy dit nie kry nie so vinnig as wat jy wil, dan kan jy weg van jou styl van boks kry. Is that something that worries you?

A. Stevenson

Ons kan gaan 12 ronde. It’s not a problem for me. We train for that. We train for that. I can go 12 ronde. And I’m from Kronk Gym, Detroit. And this place, ons het 'n goeie, goeie afrigter soos Emanuel “Sugar” Hill. They know boxing. They teach me very well my skill and everything and my balance. They know boxing. En so, hulle weet as die uitklophou nie daar is nie, maar ons gaan om te werk. We’re going to use the good ability to go for 12 rondes. It’s not a problem.

Q

Sakio, Ek wil net weet, hoe voel dit vir jou in hierdie oefenkamp te lei tot 'n lig swaargewig stryd nadat pretty much jou hele loopbaan by 'n super middelgewig spandeer?

S. Bul

Ek voel dit was 'n nuwe uitdaging te gaan en probeer om die groot bul te veg. Wanneer jy sien my regimen, niemand ooit wil my om te veg. Dit was altyd 'n bietjie moeilik, want die mense wil my nie om te veg. Vir my is dit 'n groot uitdaging, want Stevenson, Adonis is 'n groot kampioen en ek wil die wêreldkampioen in die lewe. Ek is baie seker dat ek hom kan hanteer. En kom April 4, want ek het 'n goeie voorbereiding, , 'n groot besparing vennoot, Ek het net op soek na jou om te sien hoe ek kan die groot bul hanteer. Adonis is die eerste een vir my op hierdie gewig, but I just feel confident, Ek voel positief. Ek is gereed, jy weet, om daar te gaan en die mense in die wêreld wat ek kan klop Adonis Stevenson op wys April 4. I want to tell the big bull. I want to move up in light heavyweight division, enApril 4 mense gaan wees sien dit.

Q

Maak die gewig beter vir jou voel? Do you see yourself staying at light heavyweight?

S. Bul

Ek sien myself soos 'n lig swaargewig. Ek sien myself op ligswaargewig want jy sien so baie wêreldkampioene. For me just it’s just a challenge. I want to challenge myself. Ek kan lig swaar maklik doen. It would be a struggle to do super middleweight. Jy weet, Ek kan ligswaargewig regtig maklik doen. Ek kan die groot bul hanteer, want ek hanteer almal. This is a big opportunity for me to try to see if can I handle the big bull. I can handle Adonis. soos April 4, I will try to test myself. You all ready? Ek is gereed. Ek het 'n goeie voorbereiding,. Ons lei baie hard vir hierdie stryd. Ek is net op soek na Quebec te kom en sorg van sake.

Q

Op dieselfde tyd wat jy was by die Sergey Kovalev / Jean Pascal stryd, en jy het om oor te HBO kommentator by die tyd, Bernard Hopkins, and you told him that you guarantee that you will fight Sergey Kovalev. I wanted to see what your answer was to what you think of Sergey Kovalev and his performance Saterdagnag 'n paar naweke gelede.

A. Stevenson

Pascal maak nie saak nou, want ons praat oor Bika. Ek gaan om te veg April 4 met Bika. Dit is 'n baie moeilike ding oor Bika en Kovalev is nie 'n persoon nou as ek dink oor die stryd met Kovalev en Pascal en dan nadat ek gesê, “Wel, ja, Ek gaan om te veg.” He’s not a person for me now. The person now is Bika.

Q

Jy gewaarborg dat jou volgende stryd teen Kovalev sou wees terug in Mei verlede jaar na 12 rounds against Fonfara. You beat Fonfara.

A. Stevenson

You can’t guarantee. It’s not working like that. It’s not football. It’s not hockey. And one punch can change anything. So now I got Bika in my face, en ek is baie gefokus Bika, because I know this guy gives problems to all the champions. He was champion. And I know this fighter is tough.

L. Milner

Goed. Gentlemen, thank you so much for your time. I think this call really set in motion a great week and a half heading into the fight. So, thank you so much. We’re going to switch over to Mr. Beterbiev.

Artur Beterbiev

Ek hou van my opleiding, and I am training hard. And it was all planned. So, dit alles het volgens die plan. Dit is 'n ernstige teenstander. Ek kan nie wag dat stryd te hê.

Q

Artur, you defeated Sergey Kovalev in the amateurs. What do you think of him as far as a professional opponent right now?

A. Beterbiev

Met inagneming van al sy stellings dat hy onlangs, Ek sou graag wou ontmoet saam met hom en sit hom terug in sy plek in die professionele.

Q

Wat onthou jy van hom as 'n man wie se stryd jy? What do you remember?

A. Beterbiev

Ek het 'n baie goeie geheue. So, Ek het hom geslaan twee keer in die amateur geledere, maar ek is meer gefokus op die toekoms nou. Ek wil graag om hom weer te klop.

Q

Artur, kon jy beskryf hoe jy voel jou loopbaan gaan op op hierdie punt?

A. Beterbiev

Ek hou van die manier wat ek het gelei in my professionele loopbaan. Ek is die opleiding van die alledaagse en werk elke dag en altyd dink oor wat. Ek het altyd probeer om te verbeter en my nie so sterk dele verbeter, as part of my preparation.I’m not a future teller. So, I’m ready to meet all the solid opponents. And I’m ready for the championship of the world, en ek is gereed vir enige scenario.

Q

Is daar enige belangstelling in julle stryd teen die wenner van Stevenson / Bika?

A. Beterbiev

Ek kon niemand veg.

Q

Wat dink jy van Campillo en watter soort uitdagings nie Campillo bied aan jou, want hy het soveel meer professionele ervaring as hy?

A. Beterbiev

Ja, I have a lot of respect for Campillo because he’s very experienced. For sure he has more experience than I do. He has experience winning and losing, en hy is 'n soliede opponent, maar die stryd gaan om te wys as sy professionele taal hom kan help in hierdie stryd.

Q

Wat van 'n uitklop leer jy?

A Beterbiev

I don’t think that was a knockdown. I just lost my balance for an instant. I recovered right away instantly. But I still think that this is a good lesson for me for this not to happen in the future. And I’m going to try to avoid any dangerous situations in my future.

Q

Hoe sien jy Campillo, watter soort van 'n vegter is hy, en is daar enige deel van sy styl–enige elemente van sy styl wat kommerwekkend kan wees?

A. Beterbiev

Dit is 'n vaste opponent.He se werk baie goed, very experienced at attack. He’s very experienced at defense. Die stryd gaan om te wys wat gaan gebeur.

L. Milner
