LOS ANGELES (September 29, 2019) – Errol “Resnica” Spence Jr. (26-0, 21 Kos) unified the IBF and WBC Welterweight World Titles Saturday night against two-time champion “Showtime” Shawn Porter (30-3-1,17 Kos) in an action packed main event of a FOX Sports PBC Pay-Per-View from STAPLES Center in Los Angeles.

It feels good to win,” je dejal Spence. “This is a lifetime dream. It shows hard work pays off. Thanks Shawn Porter, my whole team and all my Texas people for coming out.

The back and forth brawl immediately garnered well-deserved Fight of the Year conversation as the two welterweight champions traded power punches from the opening bell to the end. Porter showed his trademark aggressive style throughout the action, smothering Spence while throwing his own power punches.

Shawn Porter is a rough and awkward fighter,” je dejal Spence. “I didn’t get off what I wanted to. He’s a true champion. He made it tough.

That left it up to Spence to weather the oncoming storm and find spots to land power punches of his own. Glede na Compubox, Spence landed 44% njegovi moči udarcev, da 25% from Porter.

He’s a strong kid,” Said Porter. “We both came in to do the job. I think I had a little more than what he expected, but he handled it. Congratulations to him and his team. We’re proud of what we did.

V krogu štirih, Porter had Spence in some trouble, as his power shots to the head and body put Spence on the defensive. The strategy from Porter stayed the same throughout, as Spence began to adjust and find a home for his offense, especially the sweeping left hook.

Round eight saw the action taken up to yet another level as Spence initially got the worst of one of the numerous exchanges, before settling in and responding enough to keep Porter at bay. The high-octane fight continued to entertain heading into the championship rounds with the fight up in the balance.

Spence landed one of the decisive blows of the bout in round 11, connecting flush with that sweeping left hook and scoring a knockdown when Porter’s knee and glove hit the canvas. As expected, Porter rebounded strong, going at Spence and putting him on the back foot for most of the remainder of the round.

I think that knockdown was the difference,” Said Porter. “I couldn’t come back to the corner with my head down after that.

The final round was more of the same, with both fighters going toe-to-toe and leaving the STAPLES Center crowd on their feet and roaring until the final bell. The final punch stats saw both men throw nearly an equal number of punches, with Spence edging Porter 745 da 744 in punches thrown and 221 da 172 in punches landed.

All my punches have bad intentions,” je dejal Spence. “By boxing Mikey Garcia, I wanted to show people I could do it with that style. Porter was throwing a lot. I wanted to show I was the bigger and stronger welterweight.

Po 12 rounds the close nature of the fight yielded a split decision from the judges. One judge saw the fight 115-112 for Porter, overruled by two judges who saw it 116-111 for Spence. In the ring after the fight, Spence was confronted and called out by former two-division champion Danny Garcia for a potential showdown next.

It was a top dog fight tonight,” Said Garcia. “I want you next Errol. It was a tough rugged fight. Shawn Porter is a tough fighter. I’m here to say I want next.

My how the tables have turned,” je dejal Spence. “I’ve told my team, you line them up, I’ll knock them down.

Spence vs. Porter highlights tukaj, tukaj, tukaj in tukaj.

The pay-per-view co-main event saw unbeaten David “Red Flag” Benavidez(22-0, 19 Kos) regain the WBC Super Middleweight World Championship from two-time champion Anthony “Dog” Dirrell (33-2-1, 24 Kos) with a ninth-round TKO victory.

Everything just fell in place perfectly,” Said Benavidez. “From the suspension to all the big fights I’ve been in. All of that helped me out in this fight. I did not make a mistake or open myself up more than I needed to. I worked behind my jab and got the stoppage. Things are going to get better and get tougher and I’m ready for the challenge.

The fight followed a similar pattern throughout, with Benavidez stalking his opponent looking to unload power shots, while Dirrell circled the ring looking to counter and keep him at bay with his jab.

Benavidez stayed in control through the early rounds, until Dirrell turned the tables momentarily in round four trying to batter Benavidez against the ropes, but he was unable to daze the 22-year-old.

In round six Benavidez broke through with a critical moment in the fight, landing a punch that opened up a cut over Dirrell’s right eye. With the blood pouring, the cut was immediately a problem for Dirrell, who now had limited vision to stop the incoming assault.

He hit me with a clean shot,” Said Dirrell. “That’s my first time ever being cut by a punch. It opened up. There was nothing I could do about it. I couldn’t see the whole fight after that. My corner did a good job on it, but I really couldn’t see.

Despite having his cut checked by the ringside physician in rounds six, seven and eight, Dirrell was able to use his veteran savvy to stay in the fight. As the fight went to round nine Benavidez increased his offense, slowing Dirrell down enough where he could tee off with power punches in the corner.

As Dirrell tried to navigate away from Benavidez’s offense, he began to take take more punishment and looked shaky on his feet. Referee Thomas Taylor officially stopped the fight 1:39 v krogu, at the direction of Dirrell’s corner. Benavidez ended the fight with a 165 da 94 advantage in punches landed, with the biggest margin coming from his 101 power shots landed to just 41 from Dirrell.

There are so many emotions coming at me at once,” Said Benavidez. “We put so much hard work into this training camp. We left home and were away from everything. But I had the dream to become the youngest two-time super middleweight world champion and I made my dreams come true.

I would have kept going in there,” Said Dirrell. “I’m not quitting against anybody. Everyone saw I didn’t go down. My legs were still strong, but I couldn’t do anything about it.

We’re going back to the drawing board. I’m still fighting. We won’t end on a loss. You can put anybody in there with me.

Additional action saw undefeated Mario “El Azteca” Soseske (25-0, 16 Kos) score a close unanimous decision victory over Batyr Akhmedov (7-1, 6 Kos) to capture the WBA Super Lightweight title in an action packed fight.

I knew this was going to be a war,” Said Barrios. “He was getting dirty in there but the Mexican warrior in me was not going to let this opportunity pass me by. I dug deep and got the victory.

The action began with Akhmedov trying to get inside against his taller opponent, while Barrios looked to move and punish Akhmedov with pot shots from the outside. V krogu štirih, Barrios connected with a combo that stunned Akhmedov before Barrios followed up and scored a knockdown when Akhmedov’s glove touched the canvas.

The plan was to gradually grow the activity,” said Akhmedov. “I knew that I had to win by a wide margin. After the first knockdown, I knew that I had to add activity more quickly than I had planned. So I started being more aggressive. I did everything I could to try to stop him.

After surviving the round, Akhmedov picked up the aggression and began effectively closing the space down between his opponent. He began to land numerous clean left and right hooks that put Barrios on the defensive.

As the championship rounds neared, Barrios began to experience severe swelling in his left eye amidst the onslaught from Akhmedov. In the final round, Barrios was able to turn the tide back in his favor late in the frame. He delivered a pinpoint right hand that stunned Akhmdov and again forced him to put a glove on the mat.

After the knockdown, the fight went to the judges scores, who saw the fight 116-11, 115-11 in 114-112, vse v korist Barrios. The relentless pursuit after the first knockdown from Barrios ended with him holding a 238 da 135 advantage in punches landed, but it was not enough to sway the judges on this night.

I promised my city of San Antonio that I would bring this title back home and I did it,” Said Barrios.

The judges see better than I can from the ring,” said Akhmedov. “I did everything I could. Mislil sem, da sem zmagal v boju. They decided that he won the fight. When I watch the fight I’ll be able to tell you what it looked like. My job is to do everything to win. The judges are supposed to judge correctly.

I tried to do everything I could. I was told that I wouldn’t be able to handle his experience, but he was on the ropes most of the fight. I beat him up and I thought I won the fight.

The opening bout of the pay-per-view saw Josesito “The Riverside Rocky” Lopez (37-8, 20 Kos) knock out John Molina Jr. (30-9, 24 Kos) in the eighth round of their welterweight fight.

We both carry power in our hands so it wasn’t a surprise someone went down,” Said Lopez. “It easily could have happened to me with the power he has. I was able to catch him early, find openings and get the finish.

Lopez landed a critical blow on his first punch of the night, snapping off an overhand right that connected flush with Molina and put him on the canvas early in the first round. Lopez was patient following up and eventually landed a vicious body shot that put Molina down for the second time in the round.

Molina was able to rise to his feet and make it to the second round, and showed flashes that he might be able to change the tide of the fight. He slowed Lopez’s attack down in round two with a vicious combination of right and left hooks to the head.

You can never take the fight out of a fighter,” Said Molina. “I have a never say die attitude and I have my whole career. To je bil težak boj, but the better man won tonight.

I knew he wasn’t going to quit,” Said Lopez. “On je bojevnik. I had to keep on the pressure. I was thinking that hopefully the ref and the team made the right call to finish it at the right time.

Lopez stayed patient however and jabbed while looking to set up the right hand that had knocked Molina down in the first. In round seven Lopez broke through again, this time landing a perfect straight right hand that put Molia on the canvas late in the round.

After a long look from the ringside physician and his own corner, Molina tried to take his chance at a fight-changing punch in the eighth round. Early in the round, Lopez was able to land several big power shots that prompted referee Ray Corona to stop the bout 39 sekund v krogu.

I wanted to keep going at the end,” Said Molina. “I thought I was still coherent and could still move well. But you can’t go against what the referees say.

There’s a lot more ‘Riverside Rocky’ levo,” Said Lopez. “Robert Garcia has turned my career around. I’m a race car and like NASCAR, I’ve got a whole team behind me. I’m a top 10-level fighter. I’m going to give any fighter and any world champion a run for their money. I want memorable fights and I want the best.

Watch Lopez drop Molina in round one tukaj and round seven tukaj.

The main event of prelims on FS1 saw former three-time world champion Robert “Ghost” Warrior (36-6-1, 20 Kos) earn a unanimous decision victory over Jerry Thomas (14-2-1, 8 Kos) in their 10-round welterweight fight.

The early rounds were strategic, as Thomas relied on his movement while Guerrero looked to fire jabs patiently until he found opportunities for his power punches. Round three saw action jump up a bit as Guerrero landed a big straight left that pushed Thomas hard back into the ropes.

I got some rounds in tonight, which was valuable,” Said Guerrero. “We got what we needed and boxed our way to victory.

Guerrero continued to stalk Thomas and attack the body as his opponent spent most of the fight set on circling the ring. Vendar, in round nine, Thomas upped the presser and closed the distance on Guerrero. He landed numerous power shots that put Guerrero on the back foot.

It was Thomasbest round of the fight, but he was unable to put Guerrero down or out and after 10 rounds the fight was in the judges’ roke. All three saw the bout in favor of Guerrero, jih mnogo 98-92 in 99-91 dvakrat.

I want to get back into those bigger fights,” Said Guerrero. “I moved around and stayed smart in there tonight. The goal was to stick to the game plan and I did until the end of the fight, but then I got right back on it. You just have to keep working out the kinks and that’s what I’m going to keep doing.

In the opening prelims bout, unbeaten top prospect Joey Spencer (9-0, 7 Kos) scored a third-round stoppage of previously unbeaten Travis Gambardella (5-1-2, 2 Kos) in their super welterweight contest.

Spencer started the action early, leading with power shots while also controlling the distance between him and his opponent. A series of body shots put Gambardella down twice in the first round, although he was able to make it to the closing bell of the frame.

The body shots weren’t really the plan going in,” said Spencer. “I started off with head shots and he was taking those well. I put one downstairs and I instantly saw it affect him badly. I knew it was a wrap. I was going to keep going to the body.

Spencer landed a powerful straight right hand to Gambardella’s head early in round two and quickly followed up with a flurry punctuated by another body shot that dropped him for the third time in the fight. Although Spencer looked to close hard, Gambardella was able to fight intelligently and make it through another round.

I thought the referee was going to stop it in the second round,” said Spencer. “When he let him go I took a deep breath and made sure not to punch myself out. I stuck to my jab and let the rest take care of itself.

Early into round three, Spencer went back on the attack and connected with a big left hook to Gambardella’s head. Tokrat, referee Ray Corona jumped in and halted the bout 53 sekund v krogu, giving Spencer the TKO victory.

I’m so happy with the improvements that I was able to show tonight on the big stage,” said Spencer. “I’m really excited for what’s to come.

Here is what the fighters had to say Wednesday from the Wilshire Grand Ballroom II at the Intercontinental Hotel:

Errol SPENCE JR.

I feel like all of my fights prepared me for this moment. Porter is not like Mikey Garcia. They have different styles and different mentalities. But there are a lot of distractions fighting at home and I feel like I overcame that to lead me to this point.

I don’t make anything of the words he’s saying. We train hard and we’re focused and prepared for anything he brings Saturday night.

He’s been talking a lot, his dad’s been talking a lot and I’m going to shut him up. They’re going to call me theshow stopperafter Saturday night.

I’ve prepared for everything. It’s all about adjustments. I make them fast in the ring. People thought Kell Brook’s experience would help him but it didn’t at all. I can adjust to my opponent’s style and we will show it Saturday.

“Jaz sem pripravljen iti. I never missed weight and I’m always professional. It’s just hard work and dedication. I’m going to be even more ripped and ready than I was against Mikey Garcia.

This is going to be an amazing event come Saturday night. I will be the unified champion of the world. Shawn comes to fight and I embrace that. I can’t wait because I promise this is going to be one for the history books.

I just have to do what I’ve been doing. I don’t care about the rounds as long as it doesn’t go 12.
I’m going to win and do it in dominating fashion.

It’s important to me to get the knockout. It’s a goal of mine to stop him and I hope to get it done. If can’t get it done, then I’m just going to be comfortable with the victory. But you know I’m looking for the stoppage.

Shawn PORTER

It’s the competitor in me to get at him any way I can. Until that bell rings, we’ll do whatever we need to do to let him know we’re really here to fight him.

When you’re in there with a top level opponent, it’s supposed to be a close action packed fight. I have everything it takes to make each fight exciting when I step into the ring.

Everyone has seen everything what I’ve done in my career. Everyone knows I can take a punch and I’ll be there from the first round to the last round. We’ll see what happens to Errol as the fight goes on.

This is the best camp I’ve ever had. The nutrition and everything has been spot on. I’m ahead of schedule and that’s where I plan to stay. I expect to be eating Friday morning.

I’m aggressive and I’m strong and guys can’t handle it. There are things that happen in the ring and you just have to move with it. I’m always ready to do whatever it takes to get the job done.

I expected it to get heated today. I know that if I fire at Errol, he’s going to fire back. That’s how the fights going to be as well. Everyone got a good taste of what you’ll see Saturday.

Being in the underdog position is literally where I come from. Northeast Ohio is always an underdog. Everybody works where I come from. We always do the best we can.

The resume is for everyone else to compare and contrast. Za mene, it’s all about who’s in front of me. I believe I have the right recipe to be the person to get the job done Saturday. I have the style to challenge him physically and mentally.

We didn’t change too much of our program heading into this fight. For the second time we went down to Washington, Enosmerno. for part of our camp.

ANTHONY DIRRELL

The underdog or the favorite I’m always going to ”Dog’ no matter what. People can have their opinion on the odds, but it doesn’t play into my mentality at all for this fight.

This is a fight that could very well steal the show on this pay-per-view. It’s an honor to be in this position. It’s a dream to be on a card like this defending my title.

I have to see how it plays out, but age is just a number. You see Manny Pacquiao and fighters like that who went out and beat younger opponents. You have to be determined and still focused on the game.

Experience is definitely a big key in this fight. I think that he has holes in his game and I’m going to expose it on Saturday night.

The cut from my last fight won’t be an issue for this one. That fight was over six months ago, so if it’s going to heal, it should be healed. It doesn’t affect anything I’m doing in the ring.

My training camp in Las Vegas was spectacular. It’s all about taking yourself out of your comfort zone and push yourself to the max to be successful at this elite level.

I don’t think this fight is going the distance and I know I’m having my hand raised at the end. He got dropped with a jab and I hit harder than Ronald Gavril.

DAVID Benavidez

“Sem zelo motiviran za ta boj. I feel like I have another opportunity to not just get a title, but take it from a champion. Zelo trdo sem delal za ta boj. Dirrell has never been knocked out and I’m taking the challenge to be the man who does it.

This is the perfect time for this fight. I’m getting stronger every day. Dirrell feels like he has a lot to prove to the fans. So it’s going to be a war as long as it lasts.

This is going to be an amazing card. It’s a stacked card from beginning to end. I want to make a statement and steal the show.

Dirrell is a great fighter and we’re both ready for what we’re going to do. There’s a respect between us, but I’m going for the knockout. If I don’t, he’s going to get a beating.

I’m definitely going to make this weight class my home. I have no problem at all making weight. There’s a lot of great fights to be made at super middleweight and we’re going to stay here as long as we can get those fights done.

As of right now, all of my attention is on Anthony Dirrell. We give him the respect he deserves because he’s a champion at the end of the day. It’s going to take my best to beat him and we’re looking forward to doing it.

Dirrell has experience, plus some speed and power. He can change from orthodox to southpaw and has a lot of tricks in his book. He’s been in there with some good fighters. But what motivates me the most is that he’s never really been hurt and I want to be the first. I know when I put my hands on somebody, I can hurt them.

Here is what the fighters had to say Wednesday from Barry’s Boxing Gym in Las Vegas:

Shawn PORTER

Shawn Porter is going to leave the ring with two belts. I’m going to hit him. I’m going to hit him hard and I’m going to do things you’ve never seen anyone do against Errol Spence.

I’m expecting there to be adversity for Errol. There’s going to be a moment where he realizes he’s losing this fight. He has to be solid psychologically. I don’t know if he’s going to be in the ring. I believe I have the advantage there and that I know how to get into his head.

I think Errol’s confidence is natural like mine. But I think that he’s fed his confidence to the point where some arrogance has come out. I think he’s going to show that in the fight early on. He’s going to have to adjust. Once he recognizes that, I expect the arrogance to go out the window and that he’ll have to figure it out.

I’ve never seen Errol go through any adversity in the ring. I don’t think anyone has been able to challenge him the way I can challenge him. Jaz sem resnično veselimo z njo.

There’s a combination that comes from Shawn Porter that you can’t get anywhere else. It’s the speed, moč, agility and intelligence. You have to make a lot of adjustments on the fly and be ready. I’m hard to prepare for. Spence probably has one or two things that he’s expecting, but it’s not going to go that way.

I’ve been in Errol’s position before and I know what it’s like to think that all I had to do was show up and be me. I’ve gotten to a point where I realize now that I have to do more.

I don’t think there’s too much to figure out with Errol. The game plan is to make him make the adjustments. Things don’t always go to plan, but I still think I know what he wants to do in there. He’s not going to give you a lot to adjust to, but what he does do, he’s supreme and he’s great at.

Southpaws always bring the best out of me. I’m young again. You’re going to see the best Shawn Porter.

I think Errol has a lot more to lose in this fight. He’s never had to deal with a loss, and most people aren’t expecting him to lose. He’s in the perfect position being considered a top welterweight. But from my perspective, I just have absolutely no intention on losing.

ANTHONY DIRRELL

This is going to be a good fight. David Benavidez is a warrior and I don’t take anything away from him. But I know that I have all the tools to beat him. He’s never fought someone like me. Everyone he knocked out, he was supposed to knock out.

I have everything I need in my arsenal. I’m versatile. I can switch it up if I need to. If I need to sit in the pocket, I can. If I need to box, I can. I just don’t think Benavidez is what everyone makes him out to be.

“Jaz grem za knockout. I go for the knockout in every fight. If it doesn’t happen, I can still go 12 rounds and come out victorious.

This win would build my legacy. Some people expect me to lose, and I’m happy about that. This just takes my career to another level.

I’m not looking past this fight. I’m focused on David Benavidez. After this fight I can talk about unification or whatever. Put first I have to take care of David.

A loss is a loss no matter which way you put it. Whether you lose by a mile or half a round. That’s in the past and we’re only focused on the future. There’s an undefeated 22-year-old fighter trying to take what I’ve got.

You put all the work in when you’re in the gym, then you have to leave everything in the ring. We trained too hard to not do that. Zelo sem prepričan,. Ob koncu dneva, the fans are going to win.

I’ve seen Benavidez fight before. My coaches have watched him closely and will come up with the game plan. He’s quick, but we’ll be ready.

ROBERT GUERRERO

I feel great right now. Everything has been going smoothly and I can’t wait to just go to work out there. All the hard stuff is done, now it’s just maintaining and staying ready.

I’m excited for this opportunity. I’m well prepared and ready to go. It’s like any other fight. You leave no stone unturned, execute your game plan and do what you have to do to win.

The fans are going to get what they always get from me. I’m going to come to fight, take care of business and leave everyone with something to remember.

In a lot of my fights, I just walked guys down. I’ve had guys like Keith Thurman and Danny Garcia fighting just to hang in there, and I wasn’t even fighting to my full potential. I was just walking them down. But my skills are boxing, that’s how I fought at the lighter weights. I got away from what I was good at.

poročilo tonyja penecalea Box Fan Expo Ringside

S: Tony Penecale

Tukaj je hiter uvod v video:

https://www.facebook.com/TornadoTP/videos/10156003723726436/

Pretekli konec tedna v obračunu naslova srednje kategorije med Canelom Alvarezom in Danielom Jacobsom je bil tudi letni Box Fan Expo, v Kongresnem centru v Las Vegasu. Izjemne spominke na ogled in amaterska boksarska akcija v živo so dopolnili vrsto preteklih in sedanjih borcev svetovnih prvakov, ki so na voljo za hitro srečanje in pozdrave.

Kot vseživljenjski ljubitelj boksa, škoda je bilo, da sem imel na prireditvi le malo več kot dve uri, preden sem se vrnil v T-Mobile Areno za začetek dvobojev pod kartami. Čas, ki sem ga lahko preživel, je bil popolnoma prijeten. Cene so bile primerne za izpolnitev teh fističnih legend in nekaj trenutkov za pogovor in fotografiranje. Povprečje $20 -$25 cena za foto op je bila bistveno nižja od tiste, ki bi jo izgubili v igralnici v enem samem vrtljaju rulete.

James Toney je bil tam v obleki, kar dokazuje, da lahko celo kariran izgleda elegantno. Za človeka, znanega po nesramni naravi, bil je zelo prijazen in omenil je, da bo junija v Philadelphiji na oddaji v živo 7 in upa, da me bo tam videl.

Naslednja stojnica je bila izdajatelj televizijske hiše Al Berstein, s katerim sem imel privilegij intervjuvati leta 2011. Ko so mi povedali, da občudujem njegovo razkošno delo in da sem oboževalec že od njegovih dni z Barryjem Tompkinsom na ESPN-ovem četrtkovem boju, bil je skromen in hvaležen.

Linija za srečanje z Royem Jonesom ml. je bil dolg, a vreden čakanja. Medtem ko je bil čas za pogovor z Royem kratek, Omenil sem lahko, v kakšno čast mi je bilo spoznati enega največjih izvajalcev svoje generacije in kako sem sedel le nekaj metrov od njega, ko je bil na snemanju Creed II.

Medtem ko je bila linija do legendarnega Sugar Ray Leonarda izjemno dolga, videli ste, da je resnično užival, utripajoč ta milijon dolarjev nasmeh in s svojimi slavnimi fotografi, ki so jih dvignili s pestmi. Na žalost, s časom zmanjkuje, Nisem imel priložnosti srečati enega najljubših borcev, ki je odraščal. Pri štirih letih bi mu rada pokazala fotografijo, zamahnil sem na boksarski vreči Sugar Ray Leonard, ki sem jo dobil.

Nekaj ​​metrov stran je bil eden najbolj znanih tekmecev Sugar Raya, veliki Thomas "Hitman" Hearns. Medtem ko je Hitman pokazal nekaj upočasnitve, ko se je postaral, še vedno se izkaže kot impozantna figura, zdaj pa ta strašljiv odsev nadomešča s toplim nasmehom.

Thomasu Hearnsu je prišel tudi trenutni prvak IBF v super peresni kategoriji Tevin Farmer, kolega Philadelphian, ki sem ga imel priložnost opazovati, kako raste iz 7-4-1 kalfa boksar do 29-4-1 svetovni prvak.

Moj obisk ne bi bil popoln, ne da bi se ustavil, da bi videl "Pazmanskega hudiča" Vinnyja Paza, vedno eden mojih najljubših akcijskih borcev in karizmatičnih osebnosti. Namesto stiska roke, me je pozdravil z velikim objemom in izrazil razočaranje, da se mi oče ni pridružil na razstavi.

V kratkem časovnem okviru, nemogoče je bilo srečati vse tamkajšnje velike borce, vključno z Michaelom Spinksom, Riddick Bowe, Errol Spence, Anthony Dirrell, in Earnie Shavers. Ko je vikend Cinco de Mayo, vrstice za nekatere mehiške legende so se ovile okoli tal kongresnega centra. Mikey Garcia, Marco Antonio Barerra, Erik Morales, in Juan Manuel Marquez sta se izkazala za izjemno priljubljena. A nič v primerjavi z ropotom promehiške množice, ko je bil predstavljen veliki Julio Cesar Chavez.

Udeležba na tem dogodku je bila uresničitev sanj in le želela bi si lahko, da bi imela na tem dogodku več časa. Vse je bilo tako profesionalno opravljeno in navzoči niso bili dovolj ustrežljivi.

Svaka čast Box Fan Expo za tako izjemen dogodek.

Poslušajte našo epizodo radijske oddaje iz prejšnjega tedna za večji vpogled od Tonyja “Tornado” Penecale o tem dogodku.
