From a single parent household in West Philadelphia, life has always been tough for Julian Williams. At a young age, he was constantly getting into fights with his brothers and at school, until he set foot in the gym at age 12 and unveiled his love for boxing. Williams has set his goals high and is determined to set records and break barriers while giving his all on each on of his fights.
“Each fight, I just want to be better than the last fight and I’m on the cusp of being a contender and getting the title shot. When I win the title, I want to break the title defense record which is held by Terry Norris. I want to go down as the best junior middleweight to ever lace up a pair of gloves.”
Check out this I AM A FIGHTER feature on Julian Williams, the undefeated super welterweight who is up against Marcello Matano in an IBF Super Welterweight Eliminator bout Маргааш night in the main event of SHOWTIME BOXING: SPECIAL EDITION, Showtime дээр амьдрах (10 p.m. БОЛОН/PT, Баруун эрэг дэх хойшлогдож).

Khurtsidze Replaces The Injured Sam Soliman
Julian Williams Takes On Marcello Matano In 154-Pound Eliminator In Main Event Of Tripleheader Live On SHOWTIME® From Sands Bethlehem Events Center in Bethlehem, ТХГН-ийн.
НЬЮ ЙОРК (Эцсийн. 23, 2016) – Undefeated middleweight contenderAntoine Дуглас Хатуу дарж тулгарах болно Avtandil Khurtsidze in the co-feature of SHOWTIME BOXING: SPECIAL EDITION® Бямба гарагт, Гуравдугаар 5, дээр амьдрах Showtime® (10 p.m. БОЛОН/PT) from Sands Bethlehem Events Center in Bethlehem, ТХГН-ийн.
Khurtsidze (30-2-2, 20 Kos) steps in to face GH3 Promotions’ Douglas (19-0-1, 13 Kos) in a 10-round middleweight bout for the WBO International title after Сэм Soliman pulled out of the fight last week with a knee injury.
Khurtsidze, Brooklyn-ийн, N.Y.. by way of Kutaisi, Гүрж, has won eight straight – including six by knockout – since dropping a controversial decision to then-unbeaten Хассан N'Dam in a bout for the vacant interim WBA World Middleweight Title in Paris in 2010.
Khurtsidze was scheduled to face N’Dam in a rematch last Арваннэгдүгээр 21 Парист, but the event was cancelled following the tragic Арваннэгдүгээр 13 terror attacks in France. The rematch with the former world champion was to be contested for the IBF No. 2 spot at 160 кг.
A pressure fighter, Khurtsidze was also slated to fight last week on a DiBella Entertainment Broadway Boxing event and has been training since the fight with N’Dam was called off. 36 настай, who has also campaigned at super middleweight, is coming off a knockout victory over Melvin Betancourt last August.
“Avtandil is a world class guy, a former silver titlist and has been at the top of the division for years,” Lou DiBella гэв, DiBella Entertainment-ийн ерөнхийлөгч. “This is a great opportunity for him and a huge step up for Douglas. Avtandil had been on his way to France to fight for the No. 2 ranking against N’Dam when the tragic terrorist attacks hit Paris, which was a terribly unfortunate situation for all. Одоо, he looks to impress in this fight against the highly regarded Douglas. The winner of this bout moves up significantly in the middleweight world rankings and will be in line for a major fight in the 160-pound division later this year.”
In the main event of the SHOWTIME BOXING: SPECIAL EDITION tripleheader, Julian “J-Rock” Williams and once-beaten Italian Marcello Matano will square off in a 12-round IBF eliminator for the No. 1 ranking at 154 кг. Telecast нээлтийн дайралт хийвэл нь, hard-hitting prospect Тони Харрисон will face veteran former world title challenger Фернандо Guerrero 10 дугуй супер welterweight тэмцээнд.
