***Four-Fight Card Also Features Undefeated Prospects Raeese Aleem, Montana Love And Derrick Colemon Jr. In Toughest Tests Of Their Careers***

НЮ ЙОРК - Януари 22, 2020 – Rising lightweight prospect Thomas Mattice will face hard-hitting Isaac Cruz Gonzalez in the 10-round main event of *ShoBox: Новото поколение* в петък, Февруари 14 live on SHOWTIME from 2300 Arena във Филаделфия.

The four-fight telecast is the third of four *ShoBox* presentations over six weeks showcasing some of boxing’s brightest young prospects in their toughest tests to date, including super lightweight prospect Shohjahon Ergashev and super middleweight Vladimir Shishkin, who were victorious on January 17. На January 31, featherweight Ruben Villa and welterweight Taras Shelestyuk will be tested and on February 28, super lightweight Malik Hawkins and welterweight Richardson Hitchins face tough opposition.

In the co-featured bout on February 14, undefeated super bantamweight Raeese Aleem (15-0, 9 Нокаута), на Las Vegas, ще поеме*ShoBox* veteran and San Antonio native Adam Lopez (19-3-2, 9 Нокаута) in an eight-round 122-pound bout. In a matchup of undefeated junior welterweights, Cleveland’s Montana Love (12-0-1, 6 Нокаута) се връща към *ShoBox* in an eight-round showdown with New Orleans’ Jerrico Walton (16-0, 7 Нокаута). При откриването схватката на телевизията, undefeated junior middleweights Derrick Colemon Jr. (11-0, 8 Нокаута), Детройт, and Joseph Jackson (15-0, 12 Нокаута), на Северна Каролина, will square off in an eight-round 154-pound bout.

Билети за събитието, which is promoted by GH3 Promotions and King’s Promotions are $100, $75 и $50 и да бъдат закупени вwww.2300arena.com

Cleveland’s Mattice (15-1-1, 11 Нокаута) is coming off his most significant win to date, an eight-round TKO of previously undefeated Michael Dutchover last September on *ShoBox*. The fight was stopped due to a deep gash on Dutchover caused by a clean right hand from Mattice. The judges’ scorecards were split at the time of the stoppage. Mattice will be making his sixth start on the prospect developmental series, including a close loss to Will Madera in 2019, a split decision win and a split draw with Zhora Hamazaryan in 2018, and a knockout of Rolando Chinea. The 29-year-old hopes a convincing win over the top-10 ranked Gonzalez will move him closer to a world title shot.

“A win would be huge for my career and put me in a great position,” Mattice said. “It would put me in the conversation with the top dogs of the division. I have to put on a great performance and let all those top fighters know that I’m here and ready to fight anyone. It’s a must-win for me, but it’s a big fight for both of us. He is ranked No. 7 by the IBF so this has the feel of a big fight. I think a win would put me in the top-10.”

Gonzalez (18-1-1, 14 Нокаута), от Мексико Сити, е вкарал нокаути в 11 на неговата последна 14 fights since suffering only loss of his career in just his sixth professional fight. The 22-year-old owns a career-best knockout of former interim world title challenger Jose Felix Jr. в 2018. Currently ranked No. 7 от IBF в 135 паунда, Gonzalez made his U.S. debut in December on the non-televised undercard of the Jermall Charlo vs. Dennis Hogan event at Barclays Center in Brooklyn last December.

“I am excited to be fighting in the United States and I am thrilled for my fight to be shown on SHOWTIME,” said Gonzalea. “So many fighters started their career on ShoBox and have become World Champions.”

Aleem compiled a 65-10 record as an amateur and was a five-time Golden Gloves State Champion in Michigan. He finished third at the National Golden Gloves in 2010 и 2011 преди да се обърне професионалист в 2011. The 29-year-old recently relocated his training camp to Las Vegas, where he has sparred with Jessie Magdaleno, Nonito Donaire and Jhack Tepora. Aleem, who is trained by Terry Markowski, will face the toughest test of his career in the veteran Lopez.

“All my hard work is paying off and now I get to show it on the big stage,” Aleem said. “I am looking forward to earning new fans and staying on a roll. I know Lopez is a really tough fighter with something to prove. He’s been here before so I know he’s ready for the challenge. This is a steppingstone to ultimately get where I want to be, and that’s fighting for a world title, bigger paydays and more exposure. В края на краищата, I don’t just want to win, I want to dominate. Winning isn’t good enough – I also have to look good while doing it.”

Lopez was an accomplished amateur who won six national titles and held a No. 1 класиране, but he has had an up and down career as a pro. The 29-year-old started his career with 15 straight victories yet he has suffered a few setbacks as his level of opposition has dramatically increased. Lopez was undefeated and one win away from challenging for a world championship before losing to current unified 122-pound champion Daniel Roman in a title eliminator in 2017 на SHOWTIME. Lopez, who will break his own record ofShoBox appearances when he steps into the ring for the eighth time, will face his sixth undefeated opponent on the series as he looks to get his career back on track.

“Aleem is a pretty good fighter, but I think my experience is going to be a factor,” Lopez said. “He hasn’t fought top-tier guys with the exception of Marcus Bates. I have been in the big fights and this is his first time doing this. I am on a three-fight winning streak and I have rededicated myself to the sport. I have a new trainer, Chato Martinez, and a whole new camp. I can’t wait to show that I am back.”

The flashy Love was an accomplished amateur who compiled a 174-13 рекорд. The 25-year-old southpaw will return for his third test on *ShoBox* as he seeks a convincing victory. In his first bout on the series, he won a majority decision over Samuel Teah in 2018 and followed that up with a split draw a few months later against Kenneth Sims Jr. Обичам, who has sparred with Adrien Broner and Robert Easter Jr., will face what should be his most dangerous opponent in the fellow-undefeated Walton.

“Walton is a decent fighter, but I feel he is still green and he doesn’t have that much experience,” Love said. “I know he is tough, but I am taking this to the next level. He’s just a stepping stone. It’s exciting to fight under the bright lights. Some guys fold, but I was made for this. I am not looking past him, but this will take my career to the next level. We are both undefeated and not many guys take risks like this, but this shows I am a true fighter. My name is Montana “Too Pretty Love” and I am fighting on Valentine’s Day, so I will be giving a lot of love out on February 14.”

The 29-year-old Walton was born and raised in New Orleans, where he rescued his mother and sister from the flood waters of Hurricane Katrina when he was just 13 възраст. Left homeless, the family relocated to Houston, where Walton competed as an amateur. Walton turned professional in 2014 and has been perfect through his first 16 битки, including a career-best win over former super bantamweight world champion Victor Terrazas in 2019. The boxer-puncher, who is trained by Bobby Benton and fought six times last year, will face the first undefeated opponent of his career in Love.

“I have seen Montana fight before. I know he is flashy in the Adrien Broner mode, but other than that I do not know too much about him,” Walton said. “This opportunity is a blessing. The world is going to get to see me and hear my story. I’m from New Orleans and it was a struggle for me growing up, so this is a great opportunity. I never in a million years thought that I would be in this position. I just need to seize the moment and get the victory.”

Просто 20 възраст, Colemon started boxing at the age of 4 and honed his craft at the original Kronk Gym under Emanuel Steward until his passing in 2012. Colemon had a 135-fight amateur career and was a four-time national amateur champion in the junior division. He turned professional when he was 18 years old and has eight knockouts in his first 11 професионални мача. Colemon, who is trained by Marlon Thomas, will face by far the toughest test of his career in Jackson, a fellow undefeated yet untested prospect.

“I am physically and mentally prepared more than I ever have been,” Colemon said. “I know Jackson is undefeated and tough, so I know I’m in for a big test. This is the next step in my career, and I feel that I will be not only the next great champion that has fought onShoBox, but the next great fighter out of Detroit. I am ready to show the world my talents. Февруари 14 will put my name in the minds of boxing fans all over the world.”

The 31-year-old Jackson got a late start as a professional yet has been active, including three fights in 2019 and three in 2018. Той има 12 Нокаута в 15 битки, including knockouts in seven of his last eight bouts. The Greensboro native will fight outside of North Carolina for the first time in his career when he takes on the undefeated Colemon.

“I know Colemon is tough, and he had a long amateur career,” Jackson said. “He will come to fight, but I prepare for anything. That is what this sport is all about. I am looking forward to showcasing my talent to the world.”

**SLOAN, Iowa – January 17, 2020 -** Three promising and undefeated Detroit prospects shined during *ShoBox: The New Generation’s* 250^тата episode Friday night with Russia native Vladimir Shishkin leading the way with a solid unanimous decision win in the main event Friday night from WinnaVegas Casino in Sloan, Iowa.

With Tyson Fury’s trainer Sugarhill Steward from the famed Kronk Gym in Detroit working his corner, the 28-year-old fast-rising Shishkin (10-0, 6 Нокаута) won for the second consecutive time on *ShoBox* in a battle of unbeaten fighters as he dominated Ulises Sierra (15-1-2, 9 Нокаута) Сан Диего, Халиф. The 10-round super middleweight bout was scored in favor of Shishkin 100-90 и 99-91 два пъти.

Also posting victories were Steward’s students Shohjahon Ergashev, who registered a first-round knockout, and Detroit native Ja’Rico O’Quinn who won unanimously in a dominating eight-round bantamweight bout.

“Ergashev was spectacular but you almost feel like you wish you got to see more,” said Hall of Famer and *ShoBox* analyst Steve Farhood. “He’s the furthest advanced of the three and Ja’Rico O’Quinn sold himself tonight and was very aggressive, maybe too aggressive.”

Shishkin said afterwards that he fought with an injured left bicep and left elbow. “It was a much tougher fight than I thought it would be because I fought with one hand for most of the fight,"Той каза. “I was surprised he could take my punches, but I couldn’t move his hand out of the way with the left to hit him with the right. That affected me a lot because I use that a lot.”

Той добави: “I want Canelo (Alvarez). Искам (David) Benavidez. I want the champions next. I am ready for the next level. With Sugarhill in my corner I am ready for anyone. Even with one hand.”

Steward is the nephew of the legendary trainer Emanuel Steward. “I thought all the Detroit guys did great,” Sugarhill Steward said. “They all got good experience on television. That’s a factor that some fighters don’t take in to consideration. When they get on television, they don’t know how to handle it. You have to be used to being on a stage like this and I’m happy with the way they all performed. All the guys from Detroit stepped up on television to further their careers. I’m very happy all-around.”

Sierra didn’t have an answer for Shishkin’s body shots as Shishkin connected on 65 body shots to 28 for Sierra. “He was sharp and he was strong,” said Sierra, който стана 189^тата boxer to lose his undefeated record on *ShoBox* в 19 years of the series. “But I was also hurt with a sprained hand a month before this fight and haven’t hit the bags since then.”

В съвместно черта схватката, hard-hitting super lightweight Shohjahon Ergashev (18-0, 16 Нокаута) showed off his powerful left hand as the southpaw from Uzbekistan also trained by Steward knocked out Adrian Estrella (29-5, 24 Нокаута). The fight ended at just 92 seconds into the first round with a devastating body shot as Estrella was unable to survive the entire 10-count.

“I just saw the window to the body, so I threw the shot,", Каза Ergashev, who is ranked in the top-15 in three of the four major sanctioning bodies. “I wasn’t planning to knock him out in the first round. I wanted to get some rounds in. The guy is durable and experienced, so I thought I would, but when I saw that opening, Аз трябваше да го вземе.

“I knew it was over the second it landed though. I knew he would not get up from that. No one could. That was a message to the super lightweight division. It’s Shoh Time! No matter where I fight, it is always Shoh Time.”

After Ergashev landed the knockout blow, Estrella of Fort Worth, Texas, went down writhing in pain from the left uppercut to the liver and unable to continue.

“I started moving and tried using my jab, but he was very quick with that punch,” Estrella said. “He just punched me very hard in the stomach and I was paralyzed on the canvas. I tried to stand up, but I couldn’t hear the referee counting. I couldn’t hear anything, and I couldn’t move. It was a hell of a shot.”

В телевизията отварачка, former No. 1-класира САЩ. amateur at bantamweight, Ja’Rico O’Quinn (14-0-1, 8 Нокаута) was impressive in his *ShoBox* debut as he outclassed a game Oscar Vasquez (15-3-1, 3 Нокаута) in a unanimous decision 79-73 three times at 118 паунда.

The WBO No. 10-ranked junior bantamweight O’Quinn worked the body effectively throughout the eight-round fight connecting on 83 body shots to 40 for Vasquez of Reno, Nev. O’Quinn outworked Vasquez with an average of 88 punches per round to Vasquez’s 59.2.

“I give this performance a six, to be honest,” said O’Quinn. “I want to fight bigger and taller people, that’s what I’m used to. I’m not taking anything away from Oscar. No matter what I will always come out on top. Even when things can get ugly, I know how to win beautiful.”

Farhood called the bout a “highly competitive, one-sided fight.”

Added O’Quinn: “I went into this fight knowing Oscar Vasquez was a tough guy. I knew he would be coming forward to make it ugly, so my game plan was to box him but if I had to, stand there and trade with him. I knew I’d be stronger than him and be able to take his punch. It was hard to land my shots with him leaning on me. I couldn’t turn him like I wanted and cut off angles, but we came, we conquered and I got the win.”

O’Quinn, who overcame a slow start losing the first round, ended round seven emphatically with a series of punches that rattled Vasquez, who stayed on his feet and didn’t give up. “I think I did amazing,” said Vasquez, a 32-year-old crane operator. “It was a very close fight. I thought I was winning the first five rounds. He hurt me once in the seventh round and that took a lot out of me. He was a better fighter tonight.”

Friday’s fights were promoted by Salita Promotions. Пълното предаване ще се възпроизведе в понеделник, Януари 20 при 10 p.m. ET / PT на SHOWTIME EXTREME и ще бъде на разположение на SHOWTIME ANYTIME^® и SHOWTIME по DEMAND^®.

ATLANTIC CITY – January 11, 2020 – Claressa Shields made history yet again by claiming the WBC and WBO 154-pound world championships with a dominating unanimous decision over Ivana Habazin Friday on SHOWTIME from Ocean Casino Resort in Atlantic City.

Шийлдс стана най-бързият боец в историята, мъж или жена, да спечели световни титли в три различни тегловни категории, surpassing the record of Vasiliy Lomachenko and Kosei Tanaka, които и двамата постигнаха подвига в 12 битки. The near-shutout was scored 99-89, 100-90, 100-89.

Шийлдс (10-0, 2 Нокаута) надви Хабазин от звънеца на откриването, използвайки силен удар и постоянна диета от удари в тялото, които оставиха хърватия предимно в отбранителен режим през 10-рундовата битка. В шестия кръг, a series of body shots forced Habazin to take a knee in the first knockdown of her career. It was also the first knockdown for the two-time Olympic Gold Medalist and undisputed middleweight world champion in her professional career.

Following the knockdown, Habazin continued forward but did so without throwing many punches. Habazin (20-4, 7 Нокаута) threw just 285 в сравнение с 516 for Shields, who also connected on 38 percent of her power shots compared to just 18 percent for Habazin.

В съвместно черта схватката, welterweight sensation Jaron Ennis scored his 15^тата consecutive knockout with a dominating fourth round TKO over the durable Bakhtiyar Eyubov.

The switch-hitting Philadelphia native came out with a blistering pace in the first, switching from southpaw in the opening minute while displaying his signature power and hand speed. An onslaught of perfectly timed punches floored the normally durable Eyubov for the first time in his career midway through the opening round. Eyubov (14-1-2, 12 Нокаута) got up but was dropped against just 20 seconds later as the torrid pace continued. Eyubov survived the round and Ennis (25-0, 23 Нокаута) took his foot off the gas a bit in the second, but the unbeaten welterweight still landed at will against Eyubov, who continued to press forward.

Prior to the fourth round, Commissioner Larry Hazzard warned Eyubov that he would stop the fight if he didn’t see improvement. With Eyubov still pressing forward but eating dozens of punches, referee Earl Brown stepped in to stop the fight at :34 at the instructions of the Hazzard.

Ennis now has 23 нокаута в 25 битки и 13 knockdowns over his last six fights. Through four rounds the incredibly effective Ennis landed 47 percent of his power shots.

“We knew he was coming to fight and bring pressure so we mixed it up,” Ennis said. “He was a good fighter but he wasn’t really that strong. I was getting hit a little too much but that’s how we did it to get the knockout.

“We were just setting him up for power shots. I just had to calm down, that’s all. I was too hyped. Once I calmed down and got into my rhythm that was it.

“He was taking a lot of punishment. He definitely was a great fighter though. I appreciate him taking the fight because a lot of guys don’t want to fight me.”

With another dominating performance, Ennis now sets his sights on the upper echelon of one of boxing’s deepest and most exciting divisions.

“We have been wanting all the guys,” Ennis said. “They keep running. They can’t run no more. I’m right here.”

При откриването схватката на телевизията, IBF Super Middleweight World Champion Elin Cederroos edged WBA champion Alicia Napoleon Espinosa to unify the super middleweight division in an all-action slugfest scored 95-94 three times.

Cederroos (7-0, 4 Нокаута) was more active from the opening bell, хвърляне 747 total punches over 10 rounds compared to 432 for the slightly more effective Napoleon Espinosa (12-2, 7 Нокаута). But the difference in the close scorecards was a second round knockdown that Cederroos registered with a perfectly timed check left hook in the closing moments of the second. It was the first knockdown of Napoleon Espinosa’s career and ultimately the deciding factor in the scorecards.

“I’m so happy. I showed that I can box and take a war,” Cederroos said. “But when I relaxed the punches just came. It feels so wonderful. Alicia was a great opponent.”

Napoleon Espinosa was game and hurt the Swedish Cederroos multiple times but she was largely unable to get inside against her taller opponent who consistently landed the bigger punches from a distance.

“I didn’t think I lost. I thought that it was fairly close but I thought I was ahead,” Napoleon Espinosa said. “It is what it is, but I don’t think that I lost this fight.

“I know she was strong, but I wanted a tough fight. I know that Elin is an athlete. I don’t feel that I lost. I feel like it was close.”

Napoleon Espinosa had been hoping that a win would position her for a 2020 fight with Claressa Shields at middleweight with all four of Shields’ 160-pound titles on the line.

“Congrats on the fight with Shields because that was what I was looking forward to,” Napoleon Espinosa said.

The event was promoted by Salita Promotions in association with T-REX BOXING PROMOTIONS.

Friday’s SHOWTIME BOXING: SPECIAL EDITION tripleheader will replay on Monday at 10 p.m. ET / PT на SHOWTIME EXTREME.

Undisputed Middleweight Champion Shields Battles Habazin for Vacant WBC & WBO 154-Pound Titles Live on SHOWTIME from

Ocean Casino Resort in Atlantic City, N.J.

MIAMI(Януари 2, 2020) – As the calendar flips to a new decade, undisputed middleweight championClaressa Шийлдсshared her New Year’s resolution ahead of her upcoming showdown against former championIvana Habazinfor the vacant WBC and WBO 154-pound titles taking place Friday, Януари 10 live on SHOWTIME from the Ocean Casino Resort in Atlantic City, N.J.

“I really have just one main resolution for the new year – no compromising,- каза Шийлдс. “That goes for both my personal and professional life. I also want to get closer to God and stay undefeated. I was going to say stop cursing also, but that’s just not happening.”

Шийлдс срещу. Habazin will open up the 2020 year of big boxing events, with Shields seeking to become the fastest fighter in boxing history, мъж или жена, to become a three-division world champion.

“I’m very happy to kick off 2020,” said Shields. “Gervonta Davis ended 2019 on SHOWTIME and then the GWOAT brings in the New Year for SHOWTIME in 2020. It’s going to be a great start to the year. I’m coming in with a bang and gunning for the knockout.

“I’m super excited to have Jaron Ennis on the undercard, твърде. За мен, he’s the next Roy Jones Jr. of boxing. He’s slick, he has power, he can box and he’s an all-around dedicated athlete. I look forward to sharing the card with him as a future world champion.”

Shields has trained in Miami with her head coach John David Jackson ahead of her 154-pound debut and has been able to maintain her focus and worked to stay sharp despite the fight’s two postponements.

“I made 154 pounds back in October before the cancellation,- каза Шийлдс. “After our fight was cancelled, I stayed active and only put on about 10 паунда. I’ve been down in Florida for the last six or seven weeks. It’s been hard work. I’ve pushed myself and I’m not taking Habazin lightly. I want the knockout because Ivana talks too much. I’m staying focused on being focused, and not letting anyone throw me off by talking nonsense.

“I don’t eat meat anymore. I haven’t in over three months, so my body is more toned now. I actually have a six-pack already with just a little more weight to lose. I think people are going to be surprised at the 154-pound version of me. I’m going to be very strong and very fast because I’ve basically had five months to prepare and to get ready for her specifically.”

Despite training camp taking her through the many holiday events that are gluttonously celebrated by the masses, Shields has stayed disciplined ahead of her opportunity to make more history.

“Balancing around the holidays is something I’ve been doing for years,- каза Шийлдс. “I saved a lot of money by not going home for Christmas, това е сигурно. But I still spoke with all my family and connected with everyone. I have a very strict diet in camp and I actually trained on Christmas. I consider my diet more of a life plan in general, and I have my days where I’ll splurge, but I stay disciplined.”

Ahead of next week’s event in Atlantic City, Shields plans to unleash and make another statement on her way to another championship-winning performance.

“No matter what she says, this beat down was coming in October,- каза Шийлдс. “All I’m doing is bringing it to Atlantic City. I’m going to knock her out. I’m going to put down a whole different beat down on her because of the level of disrespect she has shown me. I’m not going to let her be disrespectful towards me and I’m going to knock her out to shut her up.”

The event is promoted by Salita Promotions in association with T-REX BOXING PROMOTIONS.

"Това е първият ми път бой в Атланта. Аз съм да дойда тук в продължение на четири или пет години и аз съм бил искат да се бият тук. Атланта винаги показва ме обичат и винаги съм си мислил, че ме биете тук би било голям. Знаех, че трябва голям фен база тук.

"В събота вечер ние ще имаме една голяма битка. Благодаря ви за Гамбоа за вземане на шанса. В събота вечер, че ще бъде един екшън битка и ще видим кой какво е необходимо.

"Аз съм сигурен, че Гамбоа гледах последния ми бой. Той просто казва, че не е, за да бъде самонадеян. Знам, че най-малко гледах с глава в тази борба. Ще видим в събота вечер. Той е бил малко самонадеян, така че трябва да го направи заплащане.

"Не мога да кажа дали ще се получи нокаут, но аз съм обучен много трудно и аз съм бил фокусиран върху основната цел, която е да се получи победата. Знам, че Гамбоа е труден противник и той ще го давам всичко по линията. Ако той отива 12 кръга, това няма значение за мен. Търся да направи тази голяма борба за мен, а също и за феновете.

"Вярвам, че не съм ходила минало девет кръга и аз съм непобедим, така че мисля, че е нещо добро за мен. Съм правил това в продължение на толкова много години, че аз вярвам, Гамбоа не може да донесе нищо на пръстен, който не съм виждал.

"Аз знам, че трябва да дойде там фокусирани, силен и бърз. Нека да видим какво е всичко идва, за да. Готов съм и да се надяваме, че той е готов да даде на феновете това, което те искат да видят.

"Увереността, че имам идва от моя фокус и упорита работа, че съм пусната в този лагер. Знам какво трябва да направя декември 28. Всичко от лагер Разразилата се как ми се искаше да води в борбата нощ.

"Аз съм много благодарен, че имам възможността да се бори за световната титла в събота вечер. Аз трябва да направя най-доброто от това положение, че аз съм в. Аз все още съм на ниво, където знам, че мога да се конкурират и да победи най-добрите бойци в спорта.

"Моят фокус и дисциплина ми позволи да се стигне до положение, че аз съм в днешната. Винаги съм се разчита, че до голяма степен и не ме е провалила още.

"Gervonta чукат опонентите си навън и не става покрай деветия кръг е чудесно за него, но аз не мисля, че има нещо общо с моята автобиография. Аз бях изправен пред по-силни, отколкото бойци Gervonta и аз съм бил в състояние да ги победим. Той няма да донесе нищо не съм виждал.

"Ние сме развълнувани, че борбата се приземи в Атланта и можем да ви кажем, че феновете ще бъдат много доволни от борбата, което виждат събота. Дойдох тук, за да спечели и определено съм готов да отида всички 12 кръга, ако се наложи.

"Развълнуван съм, за да може да покаже таланта си на SHOWTIME в събота вечер. Аз съм на върха на играта си и целия си отбор ми помогна да стигна до тук.

"Баду Джак е солидна боец с голяма защита и добро нападение. Аз съм имал голям лагер в Пуерто Рико. Бил съм далеч от семейството си в продължение на три месеца и аз съм готов война. Уверете се, че сте в унисон.

"Баду и аз спаринг, но това беше преди много време назад 2014. Спаринг е спаринг. Аз се готвех за Сергей Ковальов. Това беше добър сесия, но по това време той е бил в 168 паунда. Аз не се позове на това спаринг, защото тя беше толкова отдавна.

"Знам, че Баду има дълга съкращения и той е свеж и ще бъде още по-гладни. Винаги съм гладен и че ще го голяма борба в събота вечер направи.

"Аз съм се бори на най-високо ниво за последните 11 години. Това означава нещо. Аз съм специален боец. Имам неща, които никой не може да преподават, което е брадичката и сърце. "

**JACK Badou**

"Имах много тренировъчен лагер, което всеки казва,, но аз наистина се чувствам страхотно. Аз съм 36 и аз се чувствам сякаш съм 26 отново. Не мога да чакам за събота вечер, за да чуят "и новото".

"Предполагам, че трябва да изчакаме до събота вечер за мен да се докаже, че аз все още го има. Бях плосък срещу Маркус Браун, независимо от разреза, но аз се чувствам много по-добре, отколкото този път нямах позиция в тази битка.

"Всички близки решенията, аз съм имал в миналото, всеки, който гледах тези боеве знае, че тези, които са били победи. Събота вечер аз отивам да спечели и няма да има никакво съмнение,.

"Gervonta беше на моя undercard и сега съм на неговото и аз съм много горд с него. Той вече е суперзвезда.

"Аз се грижа за себе. Аз не правя нищо извън ринга, за да застраши кариерата си. Аз имам голям диетолог, който ми дава всички органични храни. Можеш да говориш с моята сила и треньор инсталация, доколкото е как аз търся, но аз се чувствам невероятно.

"Отивам да взема всичко една битка в даден момент. Мисля, Pascal може да донесе най-доброто от мен в събота вечер. Стилове правят боеве и мисля, че нашите стилове ще окото.

"Паскал и аз идвам да се бори. Маркус Браун е левичар, а той е по-уклончив. Така че е трудно да се сравняват. Паскал е трудно човек и аз очаквам нищо по-малко от тежка битка. "

**JOSE UZCATEGUI**

"Аз съм благодарен да се върне в тази позиция и аз обещавам на феновете няма да останете разочаровани. Отивам да се наоколо за дълго време и аз отивам да си взема обратно световна титла.

"Аз не говоря много, но тъй като той казва, че има само власт, ще видим в събота. Не говори днес и след това пуснете около пръстена.

"След като се извади от строя Lionell Томпсън, ще видим какво ще Халев растенията трябва да се каже, че след. Надявам се, че той ще остане и да се бори. Единствената причина растенията е шампион е така, защото съм объркан.

"Когато съм в силите си, Аз съм най-добрият супер средна категория на планетата. Всички ще видят в събота. "

**LIONELL Томпсън**

"Искам да благодаря на Uzcategui и неговия екип за вземане на борбата. Това е първият ми път в отдела за супер средна категория и смятам да са победители.

"За всеки, който ми помогна и ме подкрепяше, Обещавам, че няма да позволи на вас, момчета надолу. Аз съм планирал да даде най-добрия ми представяне в събота вечер.

"Аз съм бил там с по-големи Punchers в тежката категория и единственият път, когато е бил спрян беше в началото на кариерата ми. Аз бях пребит добрите и непобедими перспективи, които могат да удрят.

"Вярвам, че преместването в теглото, и да го правим добре с диетолог, ще бъде по-добре за мен. Всеки може да те нарани. Всеки казва, че той може да удари, но всеки, който те удря право може да те нарани.

"Аз съм фокусиран върху съвършенството. Аз не планирате да направите каквито и да било грешки. Знам какво мога да направя. Всеки, който е споделен пръстена с мен, ще кажа, че съм един от най-ловките бойци там. Флойд Мейуедър дори го каза.

"Знам, че Uzcategui е труден, но аз не съм притеснен, защото аз съм с което най-добрият ми. Аз вярвам, че ще бъде победител. Уважавам го и той определено е сила, за да се съобразяваме, но аз просто вярвам в себе си. "

**LEONARD Ellerbe, Главен изпълнителен директор на Мейуедър Промоции**

"Събота вечер, то ще бъде осветена. Аз съм много развълнуван за тази карта. Мога да си спомня кога за първи път се говори за привеждане тази борба в Атланта, има само едно име, което е синоним на подслушване в един пазар, който не е имал голяма борба в 20 години. Когато става дума за възбуда, Името Gervonta Дейвис върви ръка за ръка.

"Знаехме, че цялата тази общност ще се впише. Ние знаем, че това ще бъде най-обсъжданите събития и привличане на внимание, че ние не сме виждали от много години насам.

"Имаме изключителен undercard, включително голямо сътрудничество основното събитие с Жан Паскал и Баду Джак, който гаранция ще бъде много забавно мач. Тези две ще го всички с юмрук по масата.

"От горе до долу това е много забавно карта. С поглед към основното събитие, когато се вгледате в Гамбоа, Знаете ли, че това, което той носи на масата. Ние не купувате нищо за него е по-стар боец. Той има феноменален родословие и е видял всичко в този пръстен. Това е много опасно за борба Gervonta и това е, което искаме. Ние искаме нищо друго, освен най-доброто за Gervonta.

"Мисля, че Гамбоа ще изведат най-добрите в" резервоар "в събота вечер. Ще ви дам един забавен карта от горе до долу, с основен предмет на събитие, което ще завърши с нокаут. "

**СТИВЪН Еспиноза, президент Sports & Събитие Програмиране, Showtime Networks Inc.**

"Това е голям уикенд за SHOWTIME тъй като ние имаме осем големи боксови шоу програми през следващите 10 седмици, с участието на някои от най-големите имена в този спорт, а някои от най-добрите млади перспективите на бокса. Ние не може да го стартира с по-добра борба карта тази събота вечер.

"Време е да се откажат обажда Gervonta млада звезда или изгряваща звезда, защото това, което той е показал тази година е, че той е bonafide звезда. Това е без съмнение, когато отидете в три града и ще донесе на всички хора, че той има.

"В края на деня, Нито едно от тези дела в събота вечер. Това е, което обичам в този спорт. Имате етикети, критици и големи имена, но никой от това има значение, когато Камбаната. Всеки един от тези шест бойци тук се бори като победен, защото всички сме аутсайдери преди.

"Gervonta и Гамбоа бой като те са гладни и като са ядосани. Те се борят като има една плоча в средата на ринга. В съвместно основното събитие, с Баду Джак и Жан Паскал, Ще сложа автобиографиите си срещу всеки боец в областта на спорта. Те са се борили труден борбата след труден двубой и те все още се борят за този етап. Uzcategui е един от най-трудните Punchers в областта на спорта, и Lionell Томпсън търси ударът му. С всичко това заедно, ние сме в продължение на една забавна вечер. "

Първи, they have to pass the biggest tests of their careers.”

The 28-year-old Shishkin shined in his United States and *ShoBox: Новото поколение* дебют през август, registering an eighth-round technical knockout against then once-beaten DeAndre Ware. Standing at 6-foot-1, Shishkin was a standout amateur in Russia where he compiled 301 печели в 330 fights before turning professional in 2016. He has won his last four contests – all scheduled 10 или 12 round fights – via knockout, включително 10^тата round TKO of former world title challenger Nadjib Mohammedi prior to his American debut in October 2018. Currently training in Detroit under Javan “Sugar” Hill, Steward at the new Kronk Gym, Shishkin is looking to continue his ascent up the rankings in the super middleweight division with a second consecutive statement win on *ShoBox*.

“Training with Sugar Hill at Kronk Gym is going really well, and I can guarantee that I will be ready and I will put my newly learned skills to use,” Shishkin said. “I hope for another emphatic victory that impresses the American boxing fans. I’m looking forward to putting on a great fight and letting the champions at 168 know that this is my year.”

The 30-year-old Sierra, from San Diego, Калифорния., is riding an eight-bout winning streak including a unanimous 10-round decision over Fidel Hernandez for the vacant WBC Silver Super Middleweight Championship in April. The son of former San Diego Padres pitcher Ulises “Candy” Sierra, he has sparred with future Hall of Famers Andre Ward and Canelo Alvarez and former world champion Peter Quillin. Prior to Sierra’s career-best win in April, he won four straight contests in Mexico, включително три с нокаут.

“I’m happy for the opportunity to face a good opponent and I’ll use him as a steppingstone to get where I want to get,” said Sierra. “I still have a month of preparation to get into the best shape of my life. I know Shishkin is undefeated and has a Russian amateur pedigree. It’ll be the hardest fight of my career, but I will do anything and everything to come out victorious.”

Hard-hitting super lightweight Shohjahon Ergashev (17-0, 15 Нокаута), Узбекистан, is ranked in the top-15 in three of the four major sanctioning bodies. The 28-year-old is coming off an impressive fourth-round knockout of veteran Abdiel Ramirez this past August onShoBox. In his previous appearances on the prospect developmental series, the former member of the Uzbek national team scored a third-round knockout against then top-10 rated Sonny Fredrickson, and a 10-round unanimous decision over previously unbeaten Mykal Fox. The powerful southpaw currently trains alongside stablemate Shishkin in Detroit.

“I am adding new dimensions to my game and plan on making a big statement in the first *ShoBox* of the year,", Каза Ergashev. “2020 is going to be my year and I am going to set the tone in my fight with Estrella.”

Звезда, who hails from Monterrey, Мексико, Оказа професионалист в 2010 и спечели 22 consecutive fights before he suffered his first setback in 2015. With just seven of his 33 pro fights going the full distance, Estrella is an all-action fighter typical of his Mexican roots. He earned a career-best win, a closely-contested split decision over Oscar Duarte, в неговия U.S. debut in February. Estrella will face his fourth undefeated prospect in his last five fights as he looks to get his career back on track with a win over the highly-regarded Ergashev.

“This is an opportunity I’m going to take full advantage of,” said Estrella. “I’ve been in camp for the last two months, so I’ll be in perfect shape to go in there and do my thing. I know Ergashev is a southpaw and a hard puncher with a big KO record, but I’ve been in this situation before. I have too much experience for him. Knowing that if I win this fight I could get a world title shot is all the motivation I need.”

The 24-year-old O’Quinn is rated No. 10 в света от WBO. Ranked as the No.1 amateur bantamweight in the country compiling a record of 130-18 преди да се обърне професионалист в 2015, O’Quinn boasts blazing-fast hands and an ability to throw effortless combinations. A fan favorite in his hometown of Detroit, he was last seen winning a unanimous decision over James Smith of Flint, Mich., през октомври.

“The time has finally come,” said O’Quinn. “It’s my time to show the world who the king is on live TV. За тези, които не знаят, Януари 17, I’m going to show the world greatness in is purest form. They are going to see charisma, skills and explosiveness. I know I’m fighting a tough competitor. Той не идва, за да се установят. I’m coming prepared for war. It’s going to be a great night for boxing in the super flyweight division. I’m putting all the champions on notice.”

Vasquez, from Reno, Nev., is a former streaking prospect in the super flyweight division. After losing his third professional fight, the 5-foot Vasquez rattled off thirteen consecutive wins between 2012 и 2017 and was well on his way to making a name for himself in the division before a unanimous decision loss to once-beaten Ricardo Sandoval in May 2018 halted his momentum. After a year-and-a-half layoff, Vasquez returned by fighting Gilberto Mendoza to a majority draw in October. При 32 възраст, the hungry Vasquez finds himself in a do-or-die fight against O’Quinn.

“Training in Reno is going amazing,” said Vasquez. “It’s such a tremendous opportunity for my life. I’m trying to get to a high ranking and it’s a dream come true. I know O’Quinn is undefeated. He’s a boxer who likes to grab a lot. He doesn’t like pressure. I’m hoping I will tire him out. I think he’ll eventually give in as the fight goes on if I put on a lot of pressure. In the later rounds, he won’t even want to come out of his corner.”

Barry Томпкинс ще наричаме *ShoBox* действия от страна на ринга със Стив Farhood и бивш световен шампион Raul Маркес, служещ за експертни анализатори. Изпълнителният продуцент е Gordon Hall с Ричард Gaughan производство и Rick Phillips режисура.

Декември 20, 2019 FNU47 Оставете коментар

Първата световна Заглавие Борба Дейвис и Гамбоа Face Off За WBA Лек световното първенство в Атланта в повече от 20 Години Следващата събота, Декември 28 Живеят на SHOWTIME^® ***От State Farm Arena***

**ATLANTA** – Декември 18, 2019 – Когато **Gervonta Davis** и **Yuriorkis Гамбоа**сблъсък за свободната WBA Лек Световното първенство през декември 28 **в всепризнатата State Farm Арена в Атланта,** те ще се прави история в дългосрочен недостатъчно боксов разсадник, че е бил домакин на монументални боеве с участието на Зала на Famers Мохамед Али и Ивендър Холифийлд.

“Просто да се спомене, с тези Зала на Famers е невероятно,” Саид Davis. “Аз съм загубил думи. Това не е само голям за мен, това е голям за бокса в града и всички други бойци, които имат възможност да се борят на картата.”

Дейвис срещу. Гамбоа SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP Бокс телевизията разполага с два двубоя за световната титла и ще бъде първият световен шампионат събитие в Атланта в повече от 20 години. Жан Паскал ще защити WBA тежка категория Световното първенство срещу бившия шампион от две разделение Баду Джак в съвместно функцията на събитието Premier боксови шампиони.

Преди до декември 28, последната световна титла бият в Атланта беше обединен IBF и WBA защити тежката световна шампионка Ивендър Холифийлд срещу Вон Bean септември 19, 1998. SHOWTIME по телевизията, че мач на живо от тъй-разрушена Грузия Dome, където 41,357 фенове, посетили видяха Атланта жител етаж боб в 10^тата кръг на път за единодушно решение на победата.

Въпреки силната избирателна активност и празничната атмосфера на Холифийлд срещу. боб, Залата на славата Холифийлд се бори само четири пъти в Атланта си 57 професионалните състезания, обхващащи близо три десетилетия. Градът е направил първата битка заглавие домакин Холифийлд е, пристъп, който е широко разпространеното мнение, най-добрият Cruiserweight борбата в историята и един от последната голяма 15 кръгли боеве. На July 12, 1986, Холифийлд се справи с WBA шампион в Дуайт Мохамед Qawi в гърба и напред мач, който Холифийлд печели от съдийско решение за заснемане на първата си световна титла.

Докато Холифийлд срещу. Qawi се счита за най-добрия в историята на борбата Атланта бокса, най-значимият и най-голямото събитие в града е бил Мохамед Али Завръщането на борбата в 1970. Али е бил лишен от тежката си титла и заточен от бокса след като е бил осъждан за скандално проект на данъци в 1967. Въпреки неговото дело все още, е било обжалвано в дейността си към САЩ. върховен съд, Али получи лиценз да се бият в Грузия за първия си мач в повече от три-и-половина години. Али спря Джери Quarry в третия кръг октомври 26, 1970 в City Auditorium в едно събитие, което ще отбележи своя триумфално завръщане. осъждане на Али е било отменено през следващата година през юни 1971, Само три месеца след “Борба на века” с Джо Фрейзър.

Докато Грузия е дом на редица последните световни шампиони, нито съм се борил в Атланта като titlists. късно от две разделение световен шампион на Върнън Форест е роден в близкото Аугуста и живее в Атланта, Въпреки че никога не се бори като шампион в столица на щата. По същия начин, Бившият шампион два разделение Пол Уилямс, също на Августа, борил само веднъж в Атланта през 2001 преди да стане шампион.

Davis, който е на пистата, за да продаде своята трета поредна място на годината в три различни града, се надява да направи голям време бокса в Атланта обичайните заподозрени.

“В центъра на вниманието ще бъде на Атланта,” Саид Davis. “Те не са имали голяма борба там от много години насам.

García’s blend of power and sublime boxing skills has made him one of the most popular boxers of the last decade and secured him as a box-office fixture at Barclays Center, where he holds the record for the largest crowd for a boxing event. He set the benchmark when 16,533 attended his welterweight title unification match against Keith Thurman on March 4, 2017 in a bout that aired in primetime on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING on CBS. The fight against Redkach will be Garcia’s eighth appearance at Barclays Center.

“Barclays Center fan-favorite Danny García is back in Brooklyn as he continues his quest for the top spot in the welterweight division,- каза Том Браун, Председател на TGB Промоции. “Danny has been in the biggest fights at Barclays Center and on January 25 there are sure to be fireworks when hard-hitting Ivan Redkach looks for a career-defining win. Redkach has upset the odds before and there’s no doubt he’ll leave it all in the ring with this opportunity to move closer to a world title fight. Combined with a former unified champion known for action fights in Jarrett Hurd, plus a rising star in Stephen Fulton, this card is loaded with intrigue from top to bottom.”

“Danny García and Jarrett Hurd are two of the biggest stars in the sport because they have consistently taken on the toughest challenges and they are always in all-action, вълнуващи битки,"Казва Стивън Еспиноза, президент Sports & Събитие Програмиране, Showtime Networks Inc. “On January 25, both men are fighting to maintain their place at the top of two of boxing’s deepest divisions in important, must-win fights. Add in two undefeated, promising contenders in the opener and we have the recipe for an explosive night of fights on SHOWTIME.”

“We’re thrilled to host our first boxing event of 2020 by welcoming Danny García back for his eighth fight at Barclays Center and have Jarrett Hurd return to the arena where he’s had some memorable victories,” said Keith Sheldon, EVP of Programming and Development for BSE Global. “Danny specifically has built an enthusiastic fan base in the borough, becoming one of the most popular fighters in our arena, and we can’t wait to see his supporters out in full force as he steps back into our ring against Ivan Redkach.”

The Fulton vs. Khegai bout is promoted in association with Salita Promotions.

García (35-2, 21 Нокаута) is the latest in a long line of great boxers from Philadelphia who have made their mark on the sport. His run through the super lightweight division and two-year reign as a unified champion is one of the most impressive in modern history as he defeated a string of champions, including Nate Campbell, Кендъл Холт, Ерик Моралес, Amir Khan, Zab Юда и Lucas Matthysse.

After dominating the super lightweight division, the 31-year-old García moved up to welterweight where he won the vacant WBC title with a unanimous decision over Robert Guerrero in 2016. He lost a split decision to Thurman in a unification match in 2017 and dropped a narrow unanimous decision to Shawn Porter for the WBC title in 2018. García and many pundits thought he won both those matches. В последния си двубой, García scored a spectacular knockout victory over Adrian Granados on April 20 to get back into position to regain the welterweight crown.

“I’m very excited to be headlining another SHOWTIME card and to go back to Barclays Center, my home away from home,” said García. “I can’t wait to step in the ring in Brooklyn and give fans the Danny García show. I watched a few of Redkach’s recent fights and he had a great knockout win over two-time champion Devon Alexander. Така, I know he’s a tough fighter and competitor who I expect to bring the best out of me, and he’s someone who deserves this opportunity. But January 25 is tax season, so I’m going to have to tax him and pay him with a reality check.”

REDK (23-4-1, 18 Нокаута) has his sights set on winning a welterweight title and will face the toughest challenge of his career when he steps in against Garcia. The 33-year-old Redkach, who was born in Shostka, Ukraine and now lives in Los Angeles, is accustomed to stern tests. He started boxing as an amateur in Ukraine where he had over 300 битки. When he turned professional he traveled to Mexico to train and develop the “Mexican Style’’ – a style that emphasis standing in the pocket and throwing hard shots to the body.

Things started out slowly for Redkach, but soon he began to hold his own in Mexico and prevailed, earning the nickname “El Terrible’’ from his training partners. Redkach won 14 на първата си 18 professional fights by stoppage and has won three in a row, including most recently knocking out former world champion Devon Alexander in June.

“I’m very motivated to take a massive step in my career and get closer to becoming world champion against a strong and accomplished fighter like Danny García,” said Redkach. “I have been to a lot of Danny’s fights and now I get the chance to test myself against him. I am training very hard so that I am the best that I have ever been on January 25. I’m going to shock the boxing world just like I did against Devon Alexander. I’ve never been this hungry before and I’m confident I will win this fight.”

The former WBA and IBF champion at 154-pounds, Хърд (23-1, 16 Нокаута) returns to action for the first time since losing his belts via decision against Julian Williams in one of 2019’s best fights. The 29-year-old from Accokeek, Maryland captured his first title by stopping current WBC titlist Tony Harrison in 2017 and then added the WBA belt by defeating Erislandy Lara in 2018’s consensus Fight of the Year. Hurd earned his title opportunity by going on a run of knocking off unbeaten fighters including Frank Galarza and Oscar Molina, and also owns a successful title defense against Austin Trout at Barclays Center in 2017.

“Just because I fell back, doesn’t mean I fell off,” said Hurd. “I’m back and excited to fight at Barclays Center for the third time. I’m bringing the storm back on January and I’m going to make a statement everyone is going to see. You’re not going to want to miss this fight and the best Jarrett Hurd anyone’s seen.”

Santana (25-7-1, 12 Нокаута) has taken on the toughest challenges at 154 и 147 pounds and has made his name with an all-action action style throughout a long career as a contender. The 33-year-old will look to bounce back from a close decision loss to Abel Ramos in March, in a fight where Santana dropped Ramos in the second round. Prior to the setback against Ramos, the Santa Barbara, California native was coming off of a victory over Olympic gold medalist Felix Diaz in April 2018. Santana has faced former champions Jermell Charlo and Sadam Ali while also owning a six-round draw against Julian Williams in 2011.

“This is a great opportunity for me against a fighter like Jarrett Hurd,” said Santana. “When you get an opportunity like this, it’s hard to turn it down. My job is to rise to the occasion and have the best moment of my career on fight night. Това е моят Super Bowl. When I last fought at 154-pounds, I was basically self-trained. Now I have my coach Joseph Janik training me and I really think he’s the missing piece of the puzzle for me. I’m going to go in there and leave it all in the ring January 25.”

The 25-year-old Fulton (17-0, 8 Нокаута) has made a rapid rise through the super bantamweight ranks with superb boxing skills, befitting a slick fighter from Philadelphia. Lately Fulton has shown flashes of power that have caught his opponents off guard. In his last fight he stopped Isaac Avelar with a body shot to end their fight in the fifth round on August 24.

Fighting out of Odessa, Ukraine and training for this fight in Los Angeles, Khegai (16-0-1, 10 Нокаута) will make his third start in the U.S. януари 25, after a successful U.S. debut in in May 2018 when he defeated Adam Lopez on the prospect developmental seriesShoBox: Новото поколение. The 27-year-old has already been victorious twice in 2019, stopping Haidari Mchanjo in March and most recently winning a unanimous decision over Vladimir Tikhonov in August onShoBox.

***Women’s Superfight Added to Blockbuster Shields vs. Habazin Showdown on SHOWTIME BOXING: SPECIAL EDITION® Live At 9 P.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT from Ocean Casino Resort in Atlantic City, N.J.***

НЮ ЙОРК - Декември 13, 2019 – A second women’s superfight has been added to the blockbuster Claressa Shields vs. Ivana Habazin event on Friday, Януари 10, at Ocean Casino Resort in Atlantic City, Ню Джърси, as WBA Super Middleweight Champion Alicia “The Empress” Napoleon-Espinosa will face undefeated IBF Champion Elin Cederroos in a 10-round unification live on SHOWTIME.

Napoleon (12-1, 7 Нокаута), of Lindenhurst, N.Y.. and Cederroos (7-0, 4 Нокаута), of Vasteraas, Швеция, will meet in the opening bout of SHOWTIME BOXING: СПЕЦИАЛНО ИЗДАНИЕ (9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT) in support of the long-awaited showdown between undisputed middleweight world champion Claressa Shields and former champion Ivana Habazin for the vacant WBC and WBO 154-pound world titles.

If Shields and Napoleon win their respective bouts on January 10, they are expected to face off for the undisputed middleweight world championship in 2020 with all four of Shields’ 160-pound titles on the line.

The event is promoted by Salita Promotions in association with T-REX BOXING PROMOTIONS. The Napoleon-Espinosa vs Cederroos fight is promoted by Salita Promotions in association with DiBella Entertainment.

Napoleon became IBF Super Middleweight Champion with a 10-round unanimous decision over former world champion Femke Hermans in March 2018. The 33-year-old successfully defended her belt with another 10-round decision, this time over Scotland’s Hannah Rankin in August 2018. Napoleon was last seen making the second successful defense of her title by stopping Philadelphia’s Schemelle Baldwin in four impressive rounds in August 2019.

“I’m really excited to be unifying with IBF World Champion Elin Cederroos on SHOWTIME,” said Napoleon. “I’m extremely grateful to my promoter Lou DiBella, manager Brian Cohen, coaches Leon Taylor and Delen Parsley and my husband Roberto Espinosa for being the key ingredients to making this dream come true. I have an amazing team of men that stand strong by my side believing in me, preparing me and working hard to open doors for me to thrive. I’m blessed and prepared to win and put on a memorable performance for all the world to see that night. I’m in tremendous spirits and excited and ready for the night to come. Thank you to everyone, моят екип, family and fans, for making this opportunity materialize into a dream come true.”

The 34-year-old Cederroos claimed her IBF championship in just her sixth fight with a majority decision over Hermans in March of 2019. Fighting as the underdog in her opponent’s backyard, Cederroos was still able to impress the judges enough to pull off the impressive feat. In her last bout, Cederroos defeated Kenya’s Florence Muthoni in a non-title fight in November 2019 by dominant third-round KO.

“Alicia Napoleon is a great champion and she will be my toughest test, но съм готов,” said Cederroos. “It is an honor for me to make my U.S. debut on such a prestigious card and to do so in a world title unification battle. Alicia and I will put on a great show.”

“January 10 just got even more exciting with the addition of the matchup between two champions in the super middleweight division,“, каза Дмитрий Салита. “Those attending the fight at Ocean Casino Resort and everyone watching it live on SHOWTIME will see the best fighting the best in this very competitive ‘pick-em’ fight. A great start to boxing in 2020.”

“Alicia Napoleon-Espinosa is a world champion who has the whole package. She’s athletic, fierce, physically strong and charismatic,” каза Лу DiBella, Президентът на DiBella Entertainment. “На January 10, she gets her biggest opportunity to shine against Elin Cederroos, another world champion. This is the biggest stage to date for both Alicia and Elin and I expect them to bring everything they have. One of them will leave the ring as a unified world champion and an elite rival for Claressa Shields. Alicia is confident that her hand will be raised.”

An industry leading production team and announce crew will deliver all the sights, sounds and drama from Atlantic City. Veteran broadcaster Brian Custer will host the telecast while versatile combat sports voice Mauro Ranallo will call the action alongside Hall of Fame analyst Al Bernstein and former two-division world champion Paulie Malignaggi at ringside.
