From Masonic Temple in Detroit, Mich.; Tiket Sale Now

Another exciting battle between well-regarded prospects has been added to the un-televised undercard of Salita Promotions’ “Shields vs. Gabriels” event on Friday, Bulan Juni 22, at the Masonic Temple in Detroit.

 

 

 

In a classic “bull vs. matador” match-up, Kalamazoo, Michigan’s Nicholas “King Beamen” Givhan (21-1-1, 11 Biaya) will face undefeated Bakhtiyar “Bakha Bullet” Eyubov (13-0, 11 Biaya), from Aktjubinsk, Kazakhstan, lebih 10 exciting super-lightweight rounds.

 

 

 

A six-year pro, Nicholas Givhan has had mixed results, sejauh ini, against stronger opposition. He fought to a draw with France’s 8-1 Freddy Durand in August 2015 and suffered his lone setback against undefeated top contender Ivan Baranchyk in March 2016. Givhan has won five straight fights since then and was last seen scoring a unanimous decision over rugged veteran Agustin Cicero last February. Givhan is a smooth boxer with good instincts in the ring. The 32-year-old stands 5’ 9” and has a 68” reach.

 

 

 

“Training is going great. I’m putting the work in and prepping for the big fight,” said Givhan. “I’m a very good boxer and I’m looking forward to showing off my craft with no mistakes.”

 

 

 

Givhan says he respects Eyubov, but is confident of coming out on top.

 

 

 

“I would say he’s the toughest opponent I’ve faced so far. He comes and keeps coming and coming. He’s a very in-tight fighter and has nice power. It’s hard to say how the fight will go. Real fighters adapt to any style, so I can’t say if his style is made for mine. I just know that whatever he brings, I’ll be able to adapt.”

 

 

 

A six-year pro, Brooklyn-based Eyubov is originally from Aktjubinsk, Kazakhstan. A charismatic showman, Eyubov is a fast-rising prospect who has appeared twice on ShoBox: Generasi Baru. He stopped then 16-2-1 Jared Robinson in three rounds in January 2016 and took an exciting 10-round split decision from veteran Karim Mayfield in August of the same year. He was last seen in January, when an accidental headbutt forced opponent Maurice Chalmers to quit in round one. The fight was ruled a No Contest. The 31-year-old stands 5’ 6” and has a 65.5” reach.

 

 

 

“I look forward to a great fight on June 22. I am the best junior welterweight in the world – a point I will prove it in this fight,” said Eyubov. “I will show my improved skills, strength and power in the ring. I had a great training camp in Brooklyn, New York, with my trainers Nirmal Lorick and Keith Hewitt. This is a very important fight for me I plan on making a statement and showing the world that I am the best and hardest punching man in the division.”

 

 

 

Eyubov says he’ll be looking for another knockout on June 22.

 

 

 

“I know Givhan is a strong fighter and is in great shape and coming to win. The fight is in his hometown but that’s no problem. My plan is not to leave it to the judges June 22nd can’t come soon enough!"

 

 

 

“This is a significant crossroads fight with each fighter understanding the upside of victory and the doom of defeat,” said event promoter Dmitriy Salita. I know Bakha is hungrier than ever to win this fight and make a statement to the junior welterweight division that he is ready for the best. This match has all the ingredients of a great fight.”

 

 

 

“Shields vs. Gabriels” will feature two-time Olympic Gold Medalist and current Unified Women’s Super Middleweight Champion Claressa Shields attempting to become a two-division world champion against unified 154-pound champion Hanna Gabriels for the vacant IBF and WBA Women’s Middleweight World Championships.

 

 

 

The main event will be televised live on SHOWTIME BOXING: EDISI KHUSUS (10 p.m. ET / PT) and will also feature highlights of Unified Women’s Middleweight Champion Christina Hammer as she defends her WBC & WBO Titles in her U.S. debut against former world champion Tori Nelson.

 

Tiket untuk acara, yang dipromosikan oleh Salita Promosi, tersedia di Ticketmaster.com or at the Masonic Temple Box Office at (313) 832-7100. VIP tickets are priced at $300, ringside tickets at $125, and remaining tickets at $75, $50 dan $35.

FRISCO, TEXAS (Bulan Juni 4, 2018) – Juara dunia kelas bantam super Daniel Roman akan mempertahankan sabuknya melawan tak terkalahkan Moises “Chucky” Bunga Bunga Hari Sabtu, Bulan Juni 16 live pada SHOWTIME dari Ford Center di The Star di Frisco, Texas dalam acara yang dipersembahkan oleh Premier Boxing Champions.

 

 

 

Acara tersebut juga akan menampilkan mantan juara dunia Javier Fortuna bentrok dengan Adrian Granados dalam atraksi khusus seberat 140 pound seberat 10 ronde yang dimulai dari SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING® siaran di 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT.

 

 

 

Juara kelas welter tak terkalahkan Errol “Kebenaran” Tempat menyimpan bahan makanan, Jr. akan mempertahankan gelar dunia IBF-nya di daerah Dallas saat pulang ke fasilitas Dallas Cowboys melawan penantang wajib tak terkalahkan Carlos Ocampo di acara utama. Ini akan menjadi acara tinju pertama di dalam Ford Center dan pertarungan kampung halaman pertama Spence sebagai juara dunia.

 

 

 

Tiket untuk acara, yang dipromosikan oleh TGB Promotions terkait dengan Man Down Promotions, yang dijual sekarang dan dapat dibeli di www.SeatGeek.com.

 

 

 

“Ini akan menjadi kartu yang fantastis dengan tambahan pertarungan kejuaraan 122 pon antara Daniel Roman dan Moises Flores dan mantan juara Javier Fortuna menghadapi Adrian Granados dalam atraksi khusus seberat 140 pon.,” kata Tom Brown, Presiden TGB Promosi. “Tak satu pun dari petinju ini memiliki kotak persneling mundur, yang menjanjikan pertarungan yang menghibur untuk para penggemar di The Star dan mereka yang menonton di rumah pada SHOWTIME.”

 

 

 

Orang Romawi berusia 27 tahun (24-2-1, 9 Biaya) akan mempertahankan gelar keduanya dari kejuaraan WBA 122 pon yang dimenangkannya dengan kemenangan TKO atas Shun Kubo September lalu di Jepang. 28 tahun, Los Angeles, California., kembali ke Jepang dan mempertahankan gelar pertamanya dengan kemenangan mutlak atas Ryo Matsumoto Februari ini. Roman memasuki pertarungan ini setelah memenangkan 16 pertarungan berturut-turut.

 

 

 

“Semua orang tahu saya ingin berjuang yang terbaik dan Flores ada di sana,” kata Roman. “Dia tidak terkalahkan karena suatu alasan dan dia adalah penantang nomor satu untuk gelar saya. Aku tidak membawanya ringan. Saya termotivasi untuk menjadi hebat. Saya sekarang lebih fokus daripada sebelumnya. Saya tidak akan membiarkan Flores, atau siapa pun yang mengambil ikat pinggang saya. Rencananya sederhana. Pilih dia satu per satu seperti yang saya lakukan dalam pertarungan gelar dunia saya yang lain.”

 

 

 

Bunga Bunga (25-0, 17 Biaya), dari Guadalajara, Jalisco, Meksiko, kembali ke atas ring setelah tidak ada kontes melawan Guillermo Rigondeaux dalam pertarungan yang membuat Flores memukul dan tersingkir dengan tembakan yang pada awalnya disebut legal., tapi akhirnya diputuskan untuk datang setelah bel, sehingga menyebabkan tidak adanya kontes. Pemain berusia 31 tahun itu mencetak kemenangan yang mengesankan dengan keputusan kemenangan atas Oscar Escandon 2015 yang membuatnya mendapatkan gelar sementara seberat 122 pon dan diikuti dengan kemenangan atas petinju yang sebelumnya pernah kalah Luis Emanuel Cusolito dan Paulus Ambunda.

 

 

 

“Saya akan membuat Daniel Roman melawan saya setiap ronde sampai akhir,” Kata Flores. “Dia petinju yang baik dan counter puncher, tapi saya adalah pejuang jadi saya akan siap untuk apa pun yang dia bawa. Jika dia tidak bisa menahan kekuatanku, lalu dia akan turun lebih awal. Ini harus dimenangkan dan saya bertekad untuk menjadi juara dunia pada 16 Juni.”

 

 

 

Nasib (33-2-1, 23 Biaya) memenangkan gelar kelas bulu super dengan keputusan bulat melawan Bryan Vasquez di 2015 dan memasuki pertarungan ini untuk bangkit kembali dari kekalahan split-decision menjadi juara kelas ringan Robert Easter, Jr. di bulan Januari pada SHOWTIME. Fortuna yang berusia 28 tahun, La Romana, Republik Dominika, gagal membuat bobot untuk pertarungan Paskah dan sekarang akan berusaha untuk menantang di divisi 140-pound.

 

 

 

“Saya tahu bahwa Adrian Granados adalah seorang pejuang, tetapi pertarungan ini menguntungkan saya karena saya hanyalah petarung yang lebih baik,” kata Fortuna. “Saya menghormati Granados’ gaya dan saya tahu dia mengejutkan banyak orang dengan ketahanannya di atas ring. Saya sepenuhnya siap untuk mengalahkannya di malam pertarungan. Saya juga tidak khawatir tentang menaikkan berat badan karena begitu kita masuk ke dalam ring, Aku akan menjadi pria yang lebih besar.”

 

 

 

Granados yang berusia 28 tahun (18-6-2, 12 Biaya) telah mengumpulkan reputasi sebagai petinju yang bersedia menerima semua tantangan dan selalu mendorong lawannya ke tepi jurang. Bertempur di luar Chicago, dia ingin kembali ke jalur kemenangan dengan kemenangan atas Fortuna. Tahun lalu Granados kehilangan keputusan mutlak dari mantan juara kelas welter Shawn Porter dan keputusan terpisah dari juara empat divisi Adrien Broner.. Sebelum dua kekalahan itu, Granados mengumpulkan kemenangan beruntun lima pertandingan yang termasuk kemenangan TKO atas Amir Imam.

 

 

 

“Javier Fortuna adalah kidal yang licik, tapi saya akan menjadi lebih kuat dan lebih baik dari sebelumnya dengan berat 140 pon,” kata Granados. “Saya merasa seperti saya bisa menjatuhkan siapa pun dengan beban ini. Setelah saya mengalahkan Amir Imam, semua orang telah merunduk saya di kelas berat ini. Saya akan membuat pernyataan tentang posisi saya dalam tinju dan memberikan pertunjukan hebat kepada penggemar seperti yang selalu saya lakukan.”

Two-time Olympic Gold Medalist Claressa Shields is deep in preparation for her attempt to become a two-division world champion when she faces fellow unified champion Hanna Gabriels at Masonic Temple in Detroit on Friday, Bulan Juni 22.

 

 

 

Shields, a unified champion at 168 pon, and Gabriels, a unified titlist at 154 pon, will meet for the vacant IBF and WBA Middleweight World Championships on SHOWTIME BOXING: SPECIAL EDITION at 10 p.m. ET/PT live on SHOWTIME.

 

 

 

A native of Flint, Mich., Shields (5-0, 2 Biaya) was the first American boxer in history – male or female – to win consecutive Olympic Gold Medals. The 23-year-old turned professional following the 2016 Olympics and became unified women’s super middleweight world champion in just her fourth professional fight. Shields now begins her first camp with renowned trainer John David Jackson as she attempts to become a two-division champion.

 

 

 

SHOWTIME BOXING: SPECIAL EDITION will also feature extensive highlights of unified women’s middleweight champion Christina Hammer (22-0, 10 Biaya) as she defends her WBC & WBO titles in her U.S. debut against former world champion Tori Nelson (17-1-3, 2 Biaya). If both Shields and Hammer are victorious in their 160-pound bouts on June 22, they will meet in a fall blockbuster on SHOWTIME to determine the undisputed women’s middleweight world champion.

 

How has training camp been so far?

“Training camp has been great. It’s been fun and I’ve been working my butt off. I can’t wait to step in the ring with another champion and make history by winning the world title in my second weight division!"

What can fans expect from you on June 22?

“The fans can expect for me to fight like I’m Okoye from Wakanda! I’ve never been more motivated, more ready, and more able to take on the challenges and achieve my goals. Saya ingin melawan yang terbaik, and I want to be the best ever. I will give everything onJune 22 against Hanna Gabriels to win a world title in my second weight division, then I want Christina Hammer, so we can unify all the middleweight belts, and then my sights will be on getting to the 154-pound world title.”

 

What are some of your future goals in boxing?

“I want to lift women’s boxing for all the women past, present and future. I want equality for women and men in boxing. I want to be recognized as one of the pound-for-pound best in the sport among both men and women, no gender labels. And I want to be known as the best female boxer ever. Saya siap. Come to Detroit on June 22 and see me live, watch me on SHOWTIME, and join the team as we make history!"

What have you learned training with John David Jackson?
“Coach John is very knowledgeable, he’s been working with me on my patience. He admires the beast inside of me, but just wants me to control it more and be smart. He’s been to the biggest battles with some great world champions, and I’m glad to have his experience and knowledge on my team.”

What is your typical day like in camp?
“A typical day in camp can go according to either of two plans. Plan 1 is I wake up at 9 adalah, make myself a small breakfast (2 boiled eggs, 2 pieces of turkey bacon and some steamed asparagus) or a fruit smoothie. Di 11 am I’m at the gym training. By1:30 pm, I’m at the gym. My workout usually consists of bag drills, mitt work, shadow boxing, tali lompat, speed bag and ring drills. Then I either swim or run at 6 pm the same day. On the days I do Plan 2, I still wake at 9 am and have my breakfast and then 11 am-1:30 pm, I’m in the gym. But right after that, I do strength and conditioning, which consists of box jumps, dumb bell squats, some drills with weights for my upper body, or a four-mile run.”

Have you made any changes to your training and nutrition for your first fight at middleweight?
“Right after my fight with Tori Nelson, I knew I would be fighting next at middleweight, so I stayed in the gym three times a week until Mark (Taffet) told me we secured June 22 on SHOWTIME against Hanna Gabriels. But to properly make middleweight, I had to learn about my body some more. Losing weight is more about a routine than it is about eating less food. The good thing for me is that I like healthy food – my body and mind feel best when I eat that way. The only difference in camp is I eat smaller portions of the food I like and drink a lot more water. This camp I’ve been heavy on fish, all kinds of fish from cod, salmon, Atlantic salmon — with sides of asparagus, sweet potatoes, rice or spinach. And body clock is important, so no eating after 7 pm. I’m feeling great and will be in the best shape of my life when I get in that ring on June 22.”

Who are your sparring partners?

“So far, I’ve sparred with Matt Korobov and Daniyar Yelluisar. I love to spar with men – I find that the strength and speed helps me get the most out of the sparring.”

What have you done differently in preparation for this fight?

“Well I always say this, but I don’t get ready to face my opponents – my trainer John David Jackson focuses more on the opponent than I do. I just get prepared to be the best version of me. I’ve seen film of Hannah and I’m not impressed – I know she’s a champion and I respect that, but I’ve never seen a woman who can stay in the ring with me. It’ll take two of her to even have a chance at beating me.”

Juara Dunia Kelas Bulu Russell Jr.. Pertarungan Tak Terkalahkan Challenger Diaz Jr.. Hari Sabtu, Mei 19 Live pada SHOWTIME
Dari Pelabuhan Nasional MGM di Maryland
Klik DISINI untuk Foto dari Amanda Westcott / SHOWTIME

PELABUHAN NASIONAL, MD. (Mei 17, 2018) – WBC bulu Juara Dunia Gary Russell Jr. dan pesaing teratas tak terkalahkan Joseph “JoJo” Diaz Jr. pergi tatap muka Kamis pada konferensi pers terakhir dua hari sebelum mereka memasuki ring Mei 19 hidup di SHOWTIME (10:05 p.m. ET / PT) dalam acara utama dari MGM National Harbor di Maryland.

 

 

 

Pertempuran antara 2008 DIRI KITA. Olympian Russell Jr. dan 2012 DIRI KITA. Olympian Diaz Jr. adalah bagian dari siaran terpisah SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING yang akan menampilkan Juara Dunia Kelas Berat Ringan WBC Adonis Stevenson mempertahankan gelarnya melawan juara dunia dua divisi Badou Jack di acara utama dari Toronto.

 

 

 

Tiket untuk acara, yang dipromosikan oleh Promosi TGB sehubungan dengan Promosi Golden Boy, sedang dijual sekarang dan tersedia dengan mengunjungihttp://mgmnationalharbor.com/.

 

 

 

Kedua petarung tersebut bergabung di atas panggung oleh ayah mereka yang juga melatih mereka, dengan Gary Russell Sr. dan Joseph Diaz Sr. duduk di samping putra mereka menjelang pertandingan hari Sabtu. Inilah yang dikatakan peserta konferensi pers Kamis dari Pelabuhan Nasional MGM:

 

GARY RUSSELL JR.

 

 

 

“Kami 120 persen siap untuk pertarungan malam. Kami lapar. Selama saya memiliki tali ini, tidak ada yang masuk ke sini dan mengambilnya. Saya tahu Diaz akan memberikan yang terbaik, tapi kami siap. Talinya tetap di rumah.

 

 

 

“Saya dan adik laki-laki saya Gary Antuanne dan Gary Antonio ikut serta dan mereka akan menunjukkan pekerjaan yang telah mereka lakukan. Our dad’s birthday is the day after the fight so you know we have to make it special for him.

 

 

 

“It’s cool that both me and ‘JoJo’ are trained by our fathers. Because at the end of the day, when you look at your coach, that’s your last line of defense. When everything else goes wrong, you have to go the corner. You have to have a level of trust and belief in your corner, so who better to have than a parent there?

 

 

 

“It’s difficult for me to know if ‘JoJo’ is my toughest opponent since Vasyl Lomachenko because I never train with a lot of worry about my opponents. I think that the biggest thing is preparing myself to the best of my ability and being the best that I can possibly be.

 

 

 

“I believe in my ability to make the necessary adjustments, no matter what my opponent brings to the ring. If he wants to come in and box, we are equally as comfortable boxing long ranged as we are making the fight rugged. In order to be great at anything, you have to have a level of versatility. That’s something I bring to the table that a lot of fighters don’t bring.

 

 

 

“Diaz worked his way up the ranks to get this fight. He did everything you have to do to get in position to fight for a world title. He’s already mentioned that I’m the best fighter in the division and he knows that all the other champions in the division are afraid to step up and compete against me.

 

 

 

“Any fighter who has two months or more to prepare for one opponent is definitely dangerous. We never overlook anyone. I believe in my hand speed, my punching power, my ring generalship and in my ability to make adjustments.

 

 

 

“If we can get through this bout, I would love to get in the ring and unify with any of the other featherweight champions. The timing is perfect right now for any of these unification fights. If they still don’t want it, I’m willing to move up in weight to meet any of the guys who have a name. It’s time to make it happen.

 

 

 

“I take my hat off to him and to his team for having the guts to step into the ring. There are only certain people who can be made for this sport and it speaks volumes about him as an individual. I don’t expect anything less than a worthy opponent.

 

 

 

“It’s a pleasure being here for this fight right near my hometown. We had a very long training camp and everything is feeling good heading into the fight.”

 

JOSEPH DIAZ JR.

 

 

 

“It’s right here and around the corner. I’m very excited for the moment to be here. I’ve been waiting for this my whole entire life and I’m not going to take anything for granted. I trained extremely hard for this fight.

 

 

 

“I absolutely think Gary is overlooking me. I think he underestimated me. I’ve trained for this my whole entire life. This opportunity has been presented to me by my hard work and it’s really the opportunity of a lifetime. I can’t wait to show everybody my skills and what I’m truly about.

 

 

 

“Ini semua tentang waktu. Gary has the fastest hands in boxing but we’ve watched a lot of tape and we see a lot of flaws. Setiap petarung memiliki kekurangan. Kami hanya akan memanfaatkan apa yang kami lihat dan memanfaatkan sepenuhnya pada Sabtu malam.

 

 

 

“Saya tidak berpikir bahwa Gary tidak bertanding sejak tahun lalu akan menjadi keuntungan apa pun. Saya ingin Gary Russell Jr. untuk menjadi yang terbaik di malam pertarungan. Saya tahu bahwa saya dalam kondisi terbaik dan pendamping terbaik harus menang pada malam pertarungan. Seharusnya tidak ada alasan apa pun setelah laga ini dan setelah saya memenangkan gelar.

 

 

 

“Saya percaya setelah saya memenangkan gelar ini pada Sabtu malam bahwa saya akan berada di puncak takhta di divisi kelas bulu. Semoga saya bisa mendapatkan pertengkaran besar segera setelah itu.

 

 

 

“Saya siap untuk semua yang dia tawarkan. Dia akan keluar dan mengotak sedikit dan terlihat menggunakan pukulannya, create angles and use his speed to keep me out of range. It’s going to come to the point where he’s not going to want to move as much and he’ll starting fighting on the inside. That’s where I want to be. We’re going to deliver some great blows and may the best man win.

 

 

 

“I know what Gary Russell Jr. brings to the table. I know he’s the toughest fighter in the division but I’m ready to go out there and bring back the WBC title. I’m ready to fight the best and unify all the titles.

 

 

 

“It’s going to be fireworks on Saturday night. I’ve had a perfect training camp and I’m on weight. Everything feels great and I can’t wait to step into the ring.

 

 

 

“I’m ready for anything. If it stops early or goes the distance, I’m going to keep pushing each round more than the last.

 

 

 

“It would mean everything to win this world title. Not just for myself, but for my whole family. All the hard work and struggles that we’ve been through, it’s finally here. I’m going to do everything I can to come out victorious. Our lives are going to change and I’m going to inspire the youth and the people around me. I want people to know that if you put your mind to it, anything is possible.”

 

GARY RUSSELL SR., Russell’s Father & Pelatih

 

 

 

“The reason for the inactivity is just politics. We always have the intention on fighting but we want to find the best opponent for Gary. ‘JoJo’ is the mandatory so we’re going to fight him and after we get this win, we’re looking at Leo Santa Cruz, Abner Mares, Carl Frampton. We want to unify.

 

 

 

“Before Gary retires from the sport, he’ll move up and do whatever it takes to get a rematch with Lomachenko.

 

 

 

“We like to say that this is just Gary’s occupation. He gets paid to fight and he’s able to support his family because of that. All of the accolades don’t really mean anything to him or to us. The WBC belt is definitely the most prestigious, but like Gary said, we’re not really into the little trinkets. He would take it to the pawn shop if he could. We’re not really into those type of accolades. We just want to conduct ourselves as gentlemen, set an example and get paid.”

 

JOSEPH DIAZ SR., Diaz’s Father & Pelatih

 

 

 

“It’s a blessing to be in this position. I really believe that god didn’t bring us this far only to bring us this far. I really think the journey is going to continue. I’m very proud of my son. He has worked really hard and has shown a lot of will and determination. It means the world to me that he’s pursuing his career and is doing something that he loves doing.

 

 

 

 

“It’s exciting to finally have a fight on the east coast. It’s beautiful out here. Joseph has been wanting to fight out here and now he has that opportunity to meet some of the fans he has out here that he hasn’t had the chance to meet.

 

 

 

“Russell Jr. is a fast fighter. He’s skilled and he’s smart in there. We’ve been working on Joseph’s timing. Joseph’s a little deceiving because he kind of moves a little slow but he’s actually much faster than people think he is. The speed of Russell doesn’t affect us at all. Joseph has sparred and fought fast fighters especially in the amateurs.

 

 

 

“The plan is to go in there and beat Gary Russell up. And we’re hoping this win sets up bigger and better fights with the Santa Cruz and the Selby’s of the world. All of the champions. We’re hoping to get some of those opportunities because it will bring a lot of attention to the boxing world. Joseph will be a very good ambassador for the sport of boxing.”

 

STEPHEN Espinoza, Presiden Olahraga & Acara Programming, Showtime Network Inc.

 

 

 

“We’re thrilled to be here at MGM National Harbor. MGM is an incredible brand that means a lot in boxing. Ini adalah merek yang dikenal di seluruh olahraga di tingkat tertinggi dan kami menghargai seluruh organisasi MGM dan dukungan mereka untuk olahraga tersebut..

 

 

 

“Gary Russell Jr. vs. ‘JoJo’ Diaz yang merupakan pertarungan luar biasa. Gary tanpa pertanyaan adalah salah satu petarung paling terampil - jika bukan petarung paling terampil di divisi mana pun. Dia dikenal memiliki tangan tercepat dalam olahraga. ‘JoJo’ Diaz adalah seorang bintang muda yang saya kenal secara pribadi sejak dia menjadi profesional. Ini adalah dua pejuang aksi. Mereka adalah pejuang yang ramah penggemar yang akan memberikan aksi penuh malam.

 

 

 

“Ini adalah beberapa minggu yang menarik dalam tinju. Banyak pengumuman, usaha baru dan janji besar. Tapi di sini pada SHOWTIME kami terus melakukan apa yang telah kami lakukan, dan apa yang telah kami lakukan adalah memberikan pejuang terbaik, the biggest fights, week after week and month after month.

 

 

 

“SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING is the home of more world champions and more world championship fights than anywhere on any other network. Speaking of title fights, we’re going to have three of them, from three different countries. Di 5 p.m. ETstreaming on the SHOWTIME Facebook and Social Media platforms, we have IBF Featherweight Champion Lee Selby against challenger Josh Warrington. Di 10:05 p.m. DAN, we will have Russell Jr. vs. Diaz Jr. for the WBC Featherweight title, and immediately following that we’ll take you to Toronto for a light heavyweight world title fight between Adonis Stevenson and Badou Jack.

 

 

 

“All six of these fighters competing in Saturday’s world title fights are ranked in the top 10 of their division and have a combined record of 157 wins with only four losses.”

 

PETE BRASCIA, Senior VP of Marketing & Operations, MGM National Harbor

 

 

 

“We’re very excited to welcome these fighters and everyone involved in this event, back to MGM National Harbor. One year ago I was on a similar stage as we prepared for Gary Russell Jr. to defend his world title, and he did not disappoint his fans.

 

 

 

“The fans here in Prince George’s County and the whole region love a good show and a good fight. They love it even more when they can root on their hometown hero. Sabtu malam, akan ada yang berbeda.

 

 

 

“This will be an incredible show between Gary Russell Jr. and the undefeated Olympian ‘JoJo’ Diaz. I’m hoping for good weather Saturday night, but I’m certain we’re going to get a good show.”
