НЬЮ-ЙОРК (Июнь 30, 2016) – Undefeated heavyweight Джаррелл Миллер claims he’s America’s top heavyweight prospect. “Big Baby” will get a chance to back up his boast when he faces his toughest test to date in veteran Фред Кот в главном событии ShoBox: Новое поколение на Пятница, Август. 19.
The confident and hard-hitting Miller (17-0-1, 15 КО) and the durable and vastly experienced Kassi (18-5-1, 10 КО) возглавит тройной заголовок в прямом эфире ВРЕМЯ ДЛЯ ШОУ на 10 p.m. И/PT from the outdoor soccer venue Rhinos Stadium in Rochester, N.Y..
Two undefeated young bantamweight prospects will square off in theShoBox co-feature as world-ranked Николай Потапов (14-0-1, 6 КО) и Антонио Ньевес (16-0-1, 8 КО) meet in a 10-round bantamweight bout.
В первом бою телепередачи, undefeated welterweight knockout artist Бахтияр Эюбов (10-0, 10 КО) will face battle-tested veteran Карим Мэйфилд (19-3-1, 11 КО) в 10-раундовом спичке.
Tickets for the event presented by Salita Promotions go on sale в эту пятницу на Полдень ET и доступны на http://www.rhinossoccer.com/и HTTP://www.etix.com
“This is an amazing opportunity. I’m in the main event going against a tough opponent, and he’s definitely game to fight,” Miller said. “I’m ready to put his lights out like I do everybody else. I know he’s durable and a little older than me. He’s a tough guy and he can take a beating. До сих пор, he’s only been stopped once. I’ll be the second.
“I’m going back to basics in this camp. I’m an advanced fighter, but there are a couple of things I’ve wanted to work on. It’s easy for heavyweights to rely on power and forget about technique. You see what happened to Dominic Breazeale against Anthony Joshua? His power didn’t mean jack because there was no technique behind it. I want to be the kind of fighter who puts his technique first and power last.”
“I approach Jarrell like all young fighters,” Kassi said. “I’m a seasoned pro that has fought top-tier opponents. Jarrell will have to bring his ‘A game’ against me. He’s got size and power, but it’s nothing I haven’t seen. I’m tired of getting robbed by judges like in El Paso (against Chris Arreola), and in Alabama (against Dominic Breazeale). That should have been me fighting Anthony Joshua in The O2. Against (Hughie) Ярость, the cut saved him. Another round or two and he would have been done. Then we heard what we always hear, ‘oh, Fury had a bad night, so did Breazeale, so did Arreola.’ They all seem to have ‘bad’ nights when I’m in the other corner. I’m hoping to actually get some credit when Miller has a ‘bad’ night too. I’m a heavyweight boxer, that’s boxer underlined. I move my feet, I use angles, I hit and don’t get hit. That’s boxing and it’s my art. Boxing fans are going to have a great time watching me dismantle a giant.”
“I am very happy to be back on SHOWTIME fighting the best opponent of my career,- сказал Эюбов.. “I know this will be my hardest fight to date and that’s what motivates me. I am grateful that I am getting an opportunity to prove myself and I want to show that I am ready for the best fighters in the world. I am ready for the boxing world to know my name. Август 19, Карим Мэйфилд, here I come.”
“This will be a special event at Rochester Rhinos soccer stadium. We have America’s brightest heavyweight contender in Jarrell ‘Big Baby’ Miller and a knockout sensation out of Brooklyn by way of Kazakhstan in Bakhtiyar ‘Bakha’ Eyubov,” promoter Дмитрий Салита сказал. “This show has all the ingredients to be one of the most talked about boxing events of the summer, and we think Miller has all the skills and charisma to break through in the heavyweight division. I am grateful to SHOWTIME and Rhinos Stadium that boxing fans will witness talented fighters in their toughest fights to date. I look forward to an explosive night of boxing.”
“Wendy and I are so excited to be hosting both SHOWTIME and the fighting debut of Jarrell ‘Big Baby’ Miller at Rhinos Stadium,"Сказал Венди и David Dworkin, owners of the Rochester Rhinos soccer stadium. "Август 19 will be a great opportunity to showcase our stadium and the City of Rochester to a nationwide audience.”
The menacing Miller, a 6-foot-4 Brooklyn, N.Y.. родной, is a consensus top 15 heavyweight – he’s ranked No. 8 в WBO, Не. 9 в WBA и нет. 14 в IBF. The 27-year-old former professional kickboxer has knocked out six consecutive opponents as he’s risen through the rankings as one of America’s top heavyweight hopes. Prior to Miller’s knockout of Ник Guivas на Мая 27, his previous two fights were onShoBox – a third round destruction of Ахрора Muralimov last October and a knockout of Донован Деннис in January in which he was pushed to the seventh round for the first time.
Kassi has been in with some of the most recognizable names in the heavyweight division, в том числе Амир Мансур, Доминик Breazeale и Hughie Fury. The 36-year-old fought to a disputed majority draw with three-time world title challenger Крис Арреола last July on PBC on CBS in which most ringside observers, в том числе ShoBox аналитик Стив Farhood, had Kassi winning by a wide margin. The New Orleans resident has been stopped just once – in 2014 by Mansour – and stands as an excellent barometer for Miller’s progression as a legitimate contender.
The fast-rising Potapov, of Potolsk, Россия, is ranked in the top 15 in three of the four sanctioning bodies (Не. 7 WBO, Не. 13 IBF, Не. 14 WBA) after just 15 Профессиональные бои. A former amateur standout with over 200 бои, the 25-year-old Potapov has already gone at least 10 rounds seven times since turning professional in 2010. The only blemish on his record is a draw with undefeated prospect Stephon Молодая в своем последнем бою Апреля 15 на ShoBox.
Coincidently, the only blemish on Антонио Ньевес’ record is a 2015 draw with Stephon Young. The 29-year-old is coming off his first 10-round performance, a unanimous decision over then once-beaten Оскар Мохика июня 18. The Cleveland, Ohio native will face his toughest opponent to date in fellow unbeaten Potapov in the matchup of unbeaten bantamweights.
The Brooklyn-based Eyubov has passed every test he’s faced, and knocked out all of his opponents in the process. The 29-year-old native of Kazakhstan is coming off an impressive third-round stoppage of veteran Джаред Робинсон last January on ShoBox. Eyubov will step up his level of opposition when he faces Karim Mayfield, a 35-year-old veteran who owns wins over Маурисио Эррера и Стив Форбс and has never been stopped in 23 бои.
Барри Томпкинс будем называть ShoBox действия с ринга с Стив Farhood и бывший чемпион мира Рауль Маркес will serve as expert analysts. Исполнительный продюсер Гордон Холл с Богатый Гоган производство и Рик Филлипс руководство.

Бруклин (Июнь 28, 2016)—Undefeated former two-division world champion Майки Гарсия will return to the ring after a two-and-a-half-year layoff on Суббота, Июль 30 on an exciting night of boxing on ВРЕМЯ ДЛЯ ШОУ и SHOWTIME EXTREME that is one of the strongest cards ever assembled at Barclays Center в Бруклине.
Гарсия, who won world titles at featherweight and super featherweight, will fight former world champion Элио Рохас in a 10-round bout in the SHOWTIME ЧЕМПИОНАТ БОКС co-feature of the Лев Санта-Крус против. Карл Frampton event presented by Premier Boxing Champions (PBC).

Харрисон против. Rabchenko is the sixth matchup in 2016 between top 154-pound fighters, a lineup showcasing three world title fights and three title elimination matches in one of boxing’s deepest divisions.
The combined record of the six fighters on the SHOWTIME telecast is an impressive 162-4-1 с 113 нокауты.
An all-Brooklyn showdown between welterweight technicians Поли «Волшебник» Малиньяджи и Gabriel “Tito” Bracero highlights the undercard action on SHOWTIME BOXING on SHOWTIME EXTREME. The 10-round bout is a matchup between a former two-division world champion, Малиньяджи, and a fellow Brooklyn native, Брасеро, coming off the biggest win of his career when he knocked out Дэнни О'Коннор в октябре прошлого года.
A 10-round clash between once-beaten lightweight Джон Redkach and streaking Tevin Фермер, победитель 14 straight, will open the SHOWTIME EXTREME telecast live at 7 p.m. И/PT.
The Июль 30 event at Barclays Center comes on the heels of last Saturday’s potential Fight of the Year thriller between Кит Турман и Шон Портер, a back-and-forth slugfest that generated the top grossing live gate and second-highest attended boxing event in venue history.
“This is the strongest card from top to bottom that I have promoted at Barclays Center,” said DiBella Entertainment President Лу ДиБелла. “Every single fight is significant and competitive, and this is a great follow up from the tremendous success that boxing had with Thurman-Porter this past weekend.”
“This will be our 19й турнир по профессиональному боксу, but from top to bottom it’s arguably our best card yet,” said Brooklyn Sports & Entertainment CEO Бретт Yormark. “We are excited to welcome undefeated Santa Cruz and Frampton to Brooklyn for the first time, a fight that could rival Barclays Center’s epic Thurman-Porter bout for Fight of the Year. It’s also a pleasure to welcome Brooklyn’s own Paulie Malignaggi back to Barclays Center for the fifth time and to host the return of Mikey Garcia after a two and a half year hiatus. Июль 30 is going to be another big night for BROOKLYN BOXING.”
“We are excited to be part of Mikey Garcia’s return to the ring. Before the layoff, he was a two-division world champion and considered one of the top boxers in the world. We know he is determined to reclaim his place among the elite,"Сказал Стивен Эспиноза, Исполнительный вице-президент & Главный Управляющий, Showtime спорта. “SHOWTIME has distinguished itself by delivering the most compelling matchups and the most important events in boxing all year long. There is no other network as committed to the sport, и Июль 30 событие, from top-to-bottom, is a prime example.”
MIKEY GARCIA vs. ELIO ROJAS
“I expect to pick up right where I left off,” Garcia told SHOWTIME Sports reporter Джим Грей last Saturday on CBS. “I was a world champion, I was undefeated, and I still am. I didn’t leave because I was injured. I think I’ll come back even better. I’m hungrier now than I was before.
“I just have to get one fight in. This first fight with Elio (Рохас) will be somewhere between 135 и 140 фунты, but I want to fight at 135 and win a title there. I want to win a title there and keep going after champion after champion. Now that all that (uncertainty) is behind me I look forward to the next stage of my career. This next stage of my career will be what people remember me for.”
“Mikey Garcia is a great fighter,” Rojas said. “I want to thank him for this opportunity. We are both former WBC World Champions and I expect a great fight. Однако, all of the talk surrounding this fight has been about Mikey’s comeback and his future plans. I am no tune-up. This is also about me coming back and fighting again. He may be looking past me, but I am fully focused on him and securing the victory. I will do whatever I have to do to win, so I can move on and regain my world championship.”
Гарсия (34-0, 28 КО), Вентура, Калифорния., is 28-years-old and in the prime of his career. Once considered one of the top young boxers pound-for-pound in the world, he will make his first ring appearance since he retained the WBO 130-pound title with a 12-round unanimous decision overХуан Карлос Бургос янв. 25, 2014. Гарсия, the brother of renowned trainer Роберт Гарсия, has been victorious by knockout in 10 из его последних 12 fights and holds impressive victories overRoman “Rocky” Martinez, Хуан Мануэль Лопес, Орландо Салидо и Bernabe Concepcion.
Рохас (24-2, 14 КО), of San Francisco de Macoris, Доминиканская Республика, won the WBC featherweight world championship in 2009 with a 12-round unanimous decision over defending titleholder По Такахиро в Японии. The 33-year-old successfully defended the title against Guty Espadas Jr. в 2010, before losing the belt via unanimous decision to Джонни Гонсалес в апреле 2012. Since the loss to Gonzalez, Rojas moved up to lightweight, где он победил Robert Osiobe в августе 2014.
TONY HARRISON vs. SERGEY RABCHENKO:
“I’m thrilled to return to the ring on this big stage for my first fight in Brooklyn, and I’m ready to put on a show,” said Harrison. “Fighting for a world title is my dream and I know that I have a challenge in front of me. I’m working hard in camp to get another knockout and to make my mark on the division.”
“This is the start of realizing my dream,” Rabchenko said. “America is the Mecca of boxing so it is a huge privilege for me to be asked to fight there. American fans like to see knockouts and I like to knock people out so I think they will like what they see. I think I can build a fan base there. I am hungrier than ever. I have not seen much of Harrison, but I am ready for anyone. People say he is a very good fighter with good power. I’m not worried. I have good power as well and I think I will have too much for him.”
Как раз в 25-летней, Харрисон (23-1, 19 КО) has showed tremendous promise. He manufactured a 10-fight knockout streak from 2013 для 2015 and proved he could recover from a loss when he dominated Сесил Маккалла для 10 rounds in October 2015 и остановился Фернандо Воин in impressive fashion in March.
Fighting out of Belaraus, Рабченко (27-1, 20 КО) is looking to put himself squarely into world title contention when he makes his U.S. дебют на Июль 30. The 30-year-old is coming off stoppage victories over Walter Calvo в мае 2015 and Miguel Aguilar in February.
SHOWTIME EXTREME:
PAULIE MALIGNAGGI vs. Габриэль Bracero:
“I feel truly blessed to have yet another opportunity to fight in Brooklyn,” Malignaggi said. “I have known Tito a long time and I know he always comes to fight. We will give the Brooklyn fans a great appetizer before the terrific main event later that night in Barclays Center.”
“I’m looking to make a statement by winning this fight,” said Bracero. “Paulie and I have been friends since the amateurs and I’m thankful to have this opportunity, but he’s had his run. Now it’s time for me to have mine. This fight is going to change my life.”
Бывший чемпион мира в 140 и 147 фунт-, the 35-year-old Malignaggi (35-7, 7 КО) will return to the ring to fight at Barclays Center for the fifth time. He has faced a slew of big names throughout his career and has been victorious over the likes of Заб Джуда, Vyacheslav Senchenko и Pablo Cesar Cano. Родился и вырос в Bensonhurst в Бруклине, “The Magic Man” was victorious twice fighting in his birth country of Italy last year after unsuccessfully challenging unbeaten Дэнни Гарсия в августе.
Another Brooklyn-native, Брасеро (24-2, 5 КО) comes off of a sensational one-punch knockout of rival Дэнни О'Коннор in their rematch last October. The 35-year-old owns victories over Дмитрий Салита и Павел Миранда in addition to his first triumph over the previously unbeaten O’Connor in 2011.
IVAN REDKACH vs. TEVIN FARMER:
“I am extremely happy to be back in the ring on a big show in New York,” Redkach said. “There are so many Ukrainian fans in New York and I am thrilled to have their support and will put on a great show for them. I want to thank Leo Santa Cruz and his team for having me in their camp as we both prepare ourselves to put on tremendous performances come Июль 30."
“I couldn’t be more excited about this fight,” Farmer said. “This is my Barclays Center debut and it is going to be a spectacular performance. I have called out anyone and everyone in the 130- pound division to no avail, so now I’m moving up to 135 to take on Redkach, one of the most feared punchers in the division. Redkach is an aggressive guy and I know he is coming to fight, but there is no way I leave that ring without my hand being raised. This is a fight where I can and I will make a major statement. I’m willing to fight whoever they put in front of me to inch closer to a world title opportunity and Июль 30 is another step in that direction. I tip my hat off to Redkach for giving me this fight, but this is my time to shine.”
Родился в Украине, но борется из Лос-Анджелеса, REDK (19-1-1, 15 КО) began boxing at the age of six and has put together an impressive career since turning pro in 2009. The 30-year-old owns victories over Тони Луис, Сергей Гулякевич и Якубу Amidu. Совсем недавно, Redkach knocked out Эрик Дэниэл Мартинес в октябре 2015 and fought to a draw with Луис Крус в апреле.
Изображение боевого города Филадельфия, Фермер (24-1-1, 5 КО) выиграл 14 bouts in a row since losing to unbeaten world champion Хосе Педраса в 2012. The 25-year-old has come on strong in recent years, upsetting previously unbeaten fighters such as Emmanuel Gonzalez, Ангел Луна и Камило Перес. Farmer dominated veteran Гамалиил Диас in March and will make his Barclays Center debut on Июль 30.

“Я хочу поблагодарить Шона Портера за потрясающий бой.. Он великий воин,- сказал Турман. «Защита – ключ к победе». Он сильно подавляет свои удары и мешает судьям засчитывать очки.. Я смог потрясти его ясным, эффективные удары, и я считаю, что именно в этом сегодня и заключалась разница.
«Я бы дал ему реванш. Это был отличный бой. Он был отличным противником. Все говорили, будет ли он моим самым сильным противником на сегодняшний день.. Я не смог его уронить, но несколько раз пристегивал».

Молина – очень крутой парень, который продолжал идти вперед..
“Этот бой ставит меня в один ряд с лучшими соперниками в дивизионе.. Я чувствовал, что мог бы пройти еще три или четыре раунда.. Я становился сильнее по мере продолжения боя. Мы сразу возвращаемся в спортзал, чтобы снова туда попасть.”

“Я чувствовал, что Херд наносил много ударов в десятом раунде, но они не причиняли мне особого вреда.,- сказала Молина. «Он был занят, но никогда не причинял мне вреда..
«Я опустился низко, опустил голову, и он поймал меня апперкотом в первом раунде.. Он нанес мне удар, которого я не ожидал, но это определенно был быстрый нокдаун.. Я не пострадал.
“Я должен был больше использовать работу ног, но в итоге я заглушил свои удары.. У него была неуклюжая защита, много наклонов, и я не мог войти в ритм..
“Для меня это была большая возможность, и я чувствовал, что провел хороший бой.. Я вернусь сильнее. Мы собираемся поработать над многими вещами и вернуться туда.”
ЧЕМПИОНАТ SHOWTIME ПО БОКСУ на CBS, представлен Premier Boxing Champions, продвигалась DiBella Entertainment..
Ранее вечером на SHOWTIME, непобежденная сенсация в супертяжелом весе Энтони Джошуа впервые успешно защитил свой титул чемпиона мира по версии IBF в тяжелом весе, нокаутировав в седьмом раунде ранее непобедимого американца Доминика Бризила на турнире O2 в Лондоне.. ВИДЕО: http://s.sho.com/28VGgsa
Ниже приведены цитаты Джошуа после Субботу победа на SHOWTIME BOXING INTERNATIONAL:
Многие думали, что Доминик Бризил не сможет противостоять вашей силе и скорости., но были ли вы благодарны за возможность еще немного поработать над своими боксерскими навыками??
"Что ж, это сложно, потому что видно, что им больно от каждого выстрела – ну не каждый выстрел – но когда ты начинаешь их ловить, смываешь, они могут почувствовать укол в этих десятиунциевых перчатках.. Так, это вопрос времени, но при этом мне не хотелось получать на обратном пути косилки.
«Было тяжело, у меня было две недели отпуска после моего последнего боя., и сразу же вернулся в спортзал, так что это было тяжело. Хоть раз у меня будет небольшой перерыв, а потом я смогу вернуться с перезаряженными батарейками.”
Мы знаем, что Деонтей Уайлдер наблюдал за боем. У тебя есть сообщение для него?, Чемпион WBC?
“Невероятно вдохновляющий человек. Он был терпелив, 30-странные драки [и] заполучил WBC [ремень]. Я следую примеру. Я направляюсь в США. меня тоже поддерживает SHOWTIME. Так, он смотрел это.
“Он может получить от этого все, что захочет., но это так по-другому, когда вы на ринге друг с другом. Итак, однажды мы сможем узнать, что представляют собой друг друга.”
С кем ты хочешь сразиться следующим?
“Ну, я думаю, это должно быть что-то вроде [Иосиф] Паркер. Я действительно смотрел на Фьюри… Надеюсь, он скоро поправится.. К сожалению, он повредил лодыжку, что отложило это, потому что я надеялся получить это где-нибудь зимой, если все пройдет хорошо 9 июля как это былосегодня вечером, но нам придется перенести это, а тем временем, мы можем посмотреть на других противников, таких как Паркер, если он свободен, или кто-то еще, кого хотят люди.”
Как вы думаете, над чем вам еще нужно поработать??
"Отдых. мне нужен отдых. Я устал, Я много работаю и, как я уже сказал, теперь я могу получить

Major statement made by Undefeated Demetrius “Бу-Бу” Андраде
 Провиденс (Июнь 23, 2016) – A year after he was stripped of his world super welterweight title by the World Boxing Organization (WBO), непобежденным полусреднем супер Димитрий “Бу-Бу” Андраде has repositioned himself off of his sensational June 11 й stoppage of Willle “Отлично” Нельсон на SHOWTIME ЧЕМПИОНАТ БОКС®.
The 28-year-old Andrade (23-0, 16 КО) decked Nelson (25-3-1, 15 КО) четыре раза, finishing off his game opponent who’d never been knocked out, в 12й round of their fight at Turning Stone Casino (Верона, N.Y.).
Andrade successfully defended his WBO International title and also gained several valuable options in terms of world title and/or major fights. He is now the No. 1 mandatory contender in the World Boxing Council (WBC), waiting to challenge the winner of a mandated title fight between new champion Jermell Charlo and WBC Silver title holder Чарльз Хэтли. The 2008 U.S. Olympian is No. 2 в WBO, Не. 3 in the World Boxing Association (WBA), и Мигель Котто is No. 1 in both of those sanctioning organizations.
After his sensational, statement-making performance against Nelson, Andrade said he wanted to fight anybody whose name started with “C” and ended in ‘O” – the Charlo brothers (IBF champion isJermall Charlo), Котто и “Канело” (Саул Альварес).
“I am the best fighter in the 154-pound division,” Andrade proclaimed. “I’m the No. 1 contender in the WBO. Лиам Смит is holding my belt but I don’t believe he’ll fight me. I’m the WBC mandatory for the Charlo-Hatley winner. Once I get that belt I’ll beat Charlo’s twin for the IBF title and I’ve been calling out (WBA champ Эрисланди) Лара for a long time. But ‘Canelo’ is the big money fight out there for me and who I want the most. I can be ready for him in September for his next fight. В конце концов,, we’ll see what’s up, but I want to get right back in the ring as soon as one of these guys step up to fight me.”
During his long layoff, Andrade made a conscious effort to be a more fan-friendly fighter, building up his strength to go along with his superior quickness. Many called his last fight, ‘Mayweather-like,’ in which Demetrius displayed tremendous power and explosiveness, which complemented his incredible boxing skills and defense.
“When I first turned pro,” Андраде объяснил, “I was getting in the ring with some good fighters, so I was cautious and settled in on just getting a victory. I learned that I needed to change in order to put butts in seats. I don’t get hit and I also showed that I could go 12 раундов, good for experience, and still takeout a tough fighter like Nelson who had never been stopped. I wasn’t going for the knockout but, after I caught him early with a right hook, I knew that it would come if I was patient and kept up the pressure. I think Willie can give any of the other top guys at 154 хороший бой. He has a big heart and came to win. It wasn’t as easy as it may have looked on the scorecards. Willie pushed me to look good. During my layoff, I worked hard on my craft to be better, concentrating on strength and conditioning, and it really showed in my last fight. I worked on my fundamentals and had a lot of success going to the body. I believe fans saw improvement in my performance and appreciated it.”
More comfortable knowing his promotional issues are now in the past (his A Team Promotions owns 50% of his rights to go along with 25% each for Banner Promotions (Арти Pelullo) и звезда бокса (Джо DeGuardia), Andrade is prepared to clean out the 154-division before eventually moving up in weight to take on Геннадий Головкин in what Andrade believes can be a mega-fight in due time.
“I’ve always known since I first saw Demetrius in the ring at 14 years old that he was going to become a superstar,” A Team Promotions president И Farris прокомментировал. “There were so many doubters and obstacles along the way. It sure took a long time to get here but I’m so happy for him that his moment has finally arrived. You don’t know how good it feels to see him fulfill his destiny.”
Андраде, на самом деле, hasn’t lost inside the ring in nearly eight years, when he was ripped off against Korean boxer Kim Jung-Joo, 11-9, в четвертьфинале 2008 Олимпийские игры в Пекине, Китай. The boxer named “Бу-Бу” – as a kid with cuts, bumps and bruises – doesn’t plan on changing his unbeaten script.
“I’m still untouchable,” Андраде заключил. “I’ve shown my continued commitment to boxing. It’s ‘Boo Boo’ время!”

Fellow heavyweight world champion Deontay Уайлдер, the undefeated WBC titleholder, will join the SHOWTIME announce team as an in-studio guest analyst for coverage of Joshua-Breazeale from New York.

Below is what the fighters had to say at the final press conference, followed by some recent fight week quotes. (Courtesy Sky Sports and Matchroom Sport)
ANTHONYJOSHUA:
“You’re in my jungle now. Там нет давления на меня.
“Once that bell goes, you can’t hide the instinct, the instinct that you want to get someone out of there. I hope I can go in there, stay relaxed and do what I planned to do. But once that bell rings something just comes over you and you want to get him out of there ASAP.
“There will always be pressure. But look, it’s always been the same concept: Train hard – it’s the same ring. It hasn’t changed.
“I’ve got nothing to lose. I’ve always explained let’s get rid of the belts, the atmosphere, because when the bell goes it’s just me and him in the ring. Two gladiators, two respectful warriors coming together. We’re going to slug it out and put our 0s on the line.”
“I’m prepared, Dominic is prepared well, and one of us has to take a loss.
“Each fight is a stepping stone to the big tests. I want to look like the real deal.”
“I think we’re in the golden era of boxing again.”
ДОМИНИК BREAZEALE:
“I respect you as a fighter, but I’m going to beat you. I’ve got to beat the best of the best.”
“Не могу дождаться, it’s been an opportunity I’ve been waiting eight years for this. It’s an opportunity of a lifetime and I’m ready for this.
“Ожидайте фейерверк. We’ll be going round for round, punch for punch and I expect to knock out Joshua.”
“I got a big right hand, I have a big left hook. I stand 6-foot-7, 255 фунты. I’m unorthodox – I’m a guy that can fight on the inside, I’m a guy that can take a punch, I’m a guy that can give a punch. So if any one of those given things show up в субботу night I’m getting a knockout, точно.
“It’s a major advantage just for me to have Anthony Joshua the whole time. I don’t want him at any given point for him to feel like he’s in his comfort zone, his own backyard or his own little lion’s den.
“That’s what I came across the pond to do. I came across the pond to get my belt and take it back home with me.
“It’s my Super Bowl. Being a former football player, this is my Super Bowl.”
“Everybody keeps comparing me to Charles Martin, the only thing that we have in common is that we’re both American. We have a completely different fight style, different goals in life.
“I’m a big puncher, so is Anthony Joshua. He has the belt and I intend to have it в субботу ночь.
ADDITIONAL FIGHT WEEK QUOTES:
ANTHONY JOSHUA
"Я 16 бои, 16 побед, Dominic is 17 бои, 17 побед. We’ve been pro for the same amount of time, amateurs for the same time so we’re at a similar level on paper.
“People think this will end in two rounds? Brilliant. I am winning fights early because of my talent and hard work. Where I am in my career, it’s a perfect fight.
“I don’t overlook anyone. People talk and talk, that’s irrelevant. It’s all about whether he can fight. I think he believes in himself, but he knows what’s in store here, he needs to know I’m serious about this boxing. He thinks he’s going to KO me, he’s dismissed Charles Martin — sometimes you just have to humble somebody and show levels, let them know it’s not that easy.
“The second I stepped in to the pros it was ‘Boom!" — Anthony Joshua – headlining. That’s not down to me, its media channels and people wanting to get to know the guy behind the gloves. So it’s been hard to build a career at the right pace without criticism because people want to see me in massive fights right now.
“You can’t jump from hero to zero, there are people guiding us over a long and a dangerous career. People have to understand that it’s a development of a career, and if I ever train a fighter, I’ll tell them the same thing.”
On fellow heavyweight world champions Deontay Wilder and Tyson Fury:
“This won’t be my only defense, I want there to be lots and lots, and at the right time I will fight David Haye, Тайсон Фьюри, Deontay Wilder and the rest. We’re in an era now where we have to fight each other. There’s never been an era when the best don’t fight the best at heavyweight — but they have to happen at the right time, and they will.
“We are all world champions as we hold all the belts that are available. We’re all talented. Deontay has defended his title multiple times so you have to give him credit for that. Tyson and I haven’t defended yet, so I put Deontay at the top. But Tyson beat Wladimir Klitschko who reigned for such a long time.
“I am happy because I became a world champion in my 16th fight and they won theirs later in their careers. But Tyson beat the main man in the division, and Deontay has defended his belt lots of times, so I am in third right now, but I am building my way up.
“Put the belts to one side, they don’t give you magical powers. A lot of fighters lose their belt in their first defense. It’s about developing your raw talent and making sure you keep on an upward curve because there’s hungry young challengers snapping at your heels all the time, ready to expose you – and I refuse that to happen to me.”
On Charles Martin:
"Перед боем, no one criticized (Чарльз) Мартин. He was undefeated, knocking guys out, tall southpaw, опасно. Bookies were taking a lot of bets on him knocking me out. Tyson Fury backed him to do just that and a lot of people thought it would be tricky. Up until I beat him, he was seen as a worthy fighter. I figured him out quickly and I made him look bad. He didn’t look like the champion people thought he was, but you have to respect him.”
On thinking about losing:
“I think about losing all the time, I’m scared of it. That keeps me humble and working hard. I don’t think people are going to beat me or anything, but I don’t want to lose, and I know that if I work hard and keep improving, I won’t lose.
“I get enough attention from this job. Есть 20,000 fans at the fights, millions watching on TV around the world. I don’t need to seek attention. I’m not a trash talker because the fists do the talking.’’
On being a role model:
“I know that there are a lot of kids watching me now and their parents say ‘my son loves you’ and that’s in my mind.
“I’ll be myself all the time, but that sense of being a role model and having kid’s look up to you, that checks the emotions that could come out if you get wound up. You have to conduct yourself.’’
On Tyson Fury:
“Tyson talks a lot. I hear so many different things, if he was consistent with what he says then maybe I’d think he was digging a bit, but it’s just water off a duck’s back. I don’t know him, but as long as people are saying ‘when are you going to fight him?’ then I like him because he is relevant.
“It would be such a huge fight and one that would be part of my legacy. I think because he’s beaten Wladimir once he can do it again. I didn’t think he’d win the first fight, but he pulled it off.
“I’d love to fight Tyson – it’s a match-up that needs to happen. There have been talks, whether they are a quick chat or serious negotiations, but you can’t click your fingers and come up with a mega fight. It takes time, but they are in the pipeline and we’re building towards them, and in the meantime I want to test myself and learn my craft. I need to perform well to prove that I can handle the massive fights.’’
On fellow British heavyweight David Haye:
“David is running the show and people know it, so when he goes in against soft opponents, he’s putting his neck on the line to get the stick. Fans expect more from him and he’s not meeting those levels, and that’s where the backlash comes from. The people he’s calling out versus the two guys he has fought, they just don’t add up, and that’s what people are frustrated about.
“I don’t think you can knock the Shannon Briggs fight. He’s made a lot of noise, he’s old school and it’s a good fight for David to take, win and move upwards. Shannon had made noise and he’s got his moment and who knows? Maybe he can shock the world. He’s old, but he trains hard and he’s in great condition, and that’s why people love the heavyweights because it’s that one shot.
“A fight with Fury and I is the biggest fight in British boxing in my opinion. The Haye fight is big too; there’s enough media interest for it to be big. It’s already big and we’re not even fighting yet, so imagine how big it would be once we get in there. It’d be unbelievable and that’s why I am so interested in the fights.”
ДОМИНИК BREAZEALE:
“I plan on putting on some extreme pressure and taking Joshua to places he’s never been. We’ll find out if he can handle it.
“Do I want to see him go into uncharted territory? Конечно, без сомнения.
“I’ve been there, I know what it feels like and I’ve done it several times now. В то же время, I’m not going to let an opportunity pass me. If I see something I can take in the first or second round, I’m definitely going to get him out of there.
“I’ve sparred guys that are bigger than me, I’ve sparred some guys smaller than me. I’ve been the tallest thus far (своих профессиональных оппонентов), but I don’t think the difference in a matter of inches is going to make that big of a difference. The guys I’ve sparred with are 10 times better than Anthony Joshua.
“I think that it’s going to be one of those situations that it is not going to be a difference of size or weight. It’s going to be the difference of skill and experience.
“When you think of a heavyweight champion you want to make sure he’s fought the best, and I think that’s why Joshua has chosen me as his opponent to defend against. That’s what he plans on getting out of the situation if he can make it through the 12 раундов.
“I think Joshua’s thinking of me as a stepping stone and he’s going to be sorry about that. He’s just wrong. He’s fighting a guy at 6-foot-7, 255 pounds that brings the pressure and a great pace from round-to-round.
“I’m one of those guys that I might take a shot, I might work some defense or I might work a strong jab. В любом случае, I’m going to make it a fight. All of my opponents have been down on the canvas and I don’t think Joshua is going to come shy of that as well.
“I’ve been picked as the smaller guy in the ring, by the IBF as a stepping stone and I feel like my back is against the wall. I’m going to come out fighting.
“To come here and win the IBF title in London is a major thing for me that I plan to achieve. Then I want to continuing to go after all the titles.
“My mind set has definitely changed. The situation that I’m in mentally is just different compared to some of my fights in the past. My confidence level is through the roof and physically I feel great.
“I think the heavyweight division is getting ready to change. With individuals like myself, Deontay and Tyson, we have guys who are characters who bring a lot of charisma to the division. That’s something that we need. Да, we are athletes but in the end we are entertainers and we want to see a show. I’m the type of guy that brings a show every single time I fight. It’s action-packed from the opening bell to the end, and fight fans are looking for that. That’s what is going to resurrect the heavyweight division.’’
On his win over Amir Mansour:
“That was another confidence booster for me. It’s one thing to finish a guy in the first round with three punches or something like that. It’s another thing to finish a guy in the sixth, seventh round with a combination of shots.
“Amir put me down on the canvas in the second, I battled back and ended up breaking the man’s jaw.
“It gives me something to work on. I know I was able to come back and be very successful from it. Anytime you get a win of that matter where you get a guy, break him down, break him down where he quits on the stool, it’s a huge confidence booster. It makes you understand as an athlete or as a professional boxer that you’ve got punching power, you just broke another man’s jaw.’’
On returning to London after the 2012 Олимпийские игры:
“I think it’s going to beautiful. It’s going to be great to go back to where my amateur career ended and beat the guy who won the gold medal. That’s going to be great. А потом, on top of that, take away more hardware with the IBF Heavyweight title. You couldn’t ask for anything better.
“Then again I do understand and believe I’m a completely different fighter — not only am I a professional but I no longer fight an amateur style. I would consider myself a knockout artist with some pretty good punching power and that’s what I plan on showing the UK fans and my U.S. following. It’s a chapter that needs to be closed and I plan on doing that.’’
On the state of the heavyweight division:
“I believe that we’ve got a lot of heavyweights who are doing real well and are real successful in their situations, some being titleholders, some not. But I think it’s going to be a revolving circle. Me fighting Anthony Joshua, then going on to Deontay and Fury, Wladimir Klitschko might even hang around for a while. Will it ever be compared to the Ali days or Riddick Bowe and the Evander Holyfield days? Не знаю. Bowe and Holyfield had one great trilogy and I study it all the time. So it all depends on how much each fighter has left in him.’’

Unbeaten IBF World Heavyweight Champion Anthony Joshua, Непобедимый, World-Ranked Challenger Dominic Breazeale International Media Conference Call Highlights
“That’s what the Americans love. They like knockouts and I won’t let them down” – Anthony Joshua
“I can’t wait to get in the ring and shock the world” – Dominic Breazeale
Breazeale Challenges Joshua This Суббота, Июнь 25,
On SHOWTIME BOXING INTERNATIONAL Live on SHOWTIME®
From The O2 in London
НЬЮ-ЙОРК (Июнь 20, 2016) – Undefeated IBF Heavyweight World Champion Энтони Джошуа (16-0, 16 КО) will make the first defense of his title against fellow unbeaten Доминик Breazeale (17-0, 15 КО) of Upland, Калифорния., этоСуббота, Июнь 25 на Showtime Бокс INTERNATIONAL® от The O2в Лондоне, жить на ВРЕМЯ ДЛЯ ШОУ® on at 5:15 p.m. И/2:15 p.m. PT.
Just a few hours later in Primetime on CBS (9 p.m. И/6 p.m. PT), Кит «Один раз» Турман will defend his WBA Welterweight World Title against former champ Shawn “Showtime” Porter in a welterweight blockbuster that headlines SHOWTIME ЧЕМПИОНАТ БОКС на CBS, представлен Premier Boxing Champions.
Both Joshua and Breazeale participated in an international media conference call в понедельник. Also taking part were Стивен Эспиноза, Исполнительный вице-президент и генеральный менеджер Showtime спорта; Эдди Херн, Managing Director of Matchroom Sport and Brittany Goossen of TGB Promotions introducing Breazeale.
Below are highlights of what the principals had to say on the conference call. A full transcript will be available in the coming days.
ANTHONY JOSHUA
Thoughts on his preparation for the fight:
“I feel great condition wise, and mentally I’m in a good place. I’ve never felt so relaxed because I just know I’m capable of doing it. I’ve trained weeks and years and it’s just about getting it right on the night of the fight. My tactics and my mind have not let me down so far, so that’s why I don’t want to change anything.
“I’m not putting too much pressure on myself. I’m going to attack the fight the same way I have my last 16 and put on an explosive show. That’s what the Americans love. They like knockouts and I won’t let them down.
“Every fight can be my last fight. As much as I would like to tell you I’m confident and ‘I’m going to do this, I’m going to do that’ I do understand I have to approach this as if it could be my last fight.
“I know he can hang around, he doesn’t go down easy. He’s a big guy, he can eat shots. The Dominic Breazeale I’m used to watching on YouTube and I’m reading about is the enhanced Dominic Breazeale – the Dominic Breazeale that is 50 percent better because I think he knows he wants to come prove himself on a global stage. And this is his chance come Суббота, so I need to prepare for the best of Breazeale.”
On going from being the hunter as a challenger to being the hunted as a champion:
“I’m not the cream of the crop in the gym. I’m around guys that are achieving things on the same level so I’m still hunting. I still have that mentality as if I’m a main killer in the jungle. I haven’t lost that hunger.
On potential to fight in the US in the future:
“I just keep on hearing the United States is where it’s happening. And if I come to the U.S., I’m going to shut it down.”
Thoughts on Breazeale’s performance against Amir Mansour:
“He’s a tough guy. He managed to go out there and break Mansour’s jaw and capture a win, which has led him into where he is now. Whichever angels were floating in the ring with him that day have led him to this point, so I’ve got to put an end to his dream.”
On winning a piece of the heavyweight championship in just his 16й про бой:
“It didn’t mean much. I still have another couple titles I need to get my hands on. I’m still hunting. There’s still work to be done. So it only ticked one of the boxes on my to-do list.”
ДОМИНИК BREAZEALE
“I’m out here very excited. Я не могу дождаться выхода на ринг Июнь 25 and shock the world, это точно. I’ve been lucky enough to prepare for the biggest fight of my life and I’m really super excited about it.”
On why he thinks he was selected for this matchup:
"Честно говоря, the way I see it is that someone didn’t do their research. They didn’t look deep enough. They didn’t find out enough about me and maybe they’re looking at me as just another football player that transitioned into boxing. And I’m hoping they’re overlooking me. It definitely can be a situation where they’re just watching one fight, especially my last fight. But there’s been a lot of tough ones. If they’re looking at that one situation, I’m glad because that’s to my liking.”
On his feelings about fighting overseas:
“The way I’m thinking about it is, Июнь 25, I gain 20,000 фанаты. I’m in a situation where I’m very confident going into this fight and I know for sure I’m going to put on a great show, come out victorious and go back to the U.S. с 20,000 UK fans.
“I definitely believe [Джошуа] realizes; he understands that he’s got a big test in front of him. He’s got a big fighter in front of him. He’s got a guy that’s going to break him down, test his will and see if he is a true champion.
“I am coming into this fight very confident and I’ve got some things that I know are going to work for me, as well as some things that I plan on exploiting out of Joshua.
“I’m blessed to have been picked for this fight and am thankful for this opportunity. The way I look at it, and the way I look at every fight that I go into, is that as long as I do everything that I need to do in the gym as far as sparring, preparation and training, running my miles, sleeping right and eating right – I’ve crossed all of my T’s and dotted all of my I’s. I’ve got nothing to worry about. I’ve got nothing to second-guess. I’ve done everything I’m supposed to and I just can’t wait to shine.”
Стивен Эспиноза, Исполнительный вице-президент и генеральный менеджер, Showtime спорта
“Anthony quickly went from a diamond in the rough to really one of the foremost stars in the UK and Europe, and we are happy to be his partner as he establishes his presence in North America.
“We are particularly excited about this bout because we have, pardon the phraseology, two behemoths. There are two skilled boxers, really the epitome of what heavyweight boxing should be – большой, strong athletes skilled in their sport, with amateur pedigree, meeting on the afternoon here in the US, evening in the UK to determine who is the best fighter.”
EDDIE HEARN, Президент, Matchroom Спорт
“Over here, the feeling is that it’s going to be quite a routine defense, but Anthony hasn’t trained like that. He is not expecting that. He knows the background and roots of Dominic Breazeale. He knows his skill, and he knows how dangerous he can be and he knows how hungry he is as well. I think you’re going to get a different kind of fight than the Charles Martin fight. I think you’re going to get a guy that’s not afraid to let his hands go. He’s not going to wait and the sold out O2 Arena is going to be an electric place to be.”
“SHOWTIME is a deal we are very excited about. To link up with an American broadcaster for us was an obvious move, but it was a move we had to choose carefully. And I think we chose very, very well in SHOWTIME.”
BRITTANY GOOSSEN, TGB Акции
“Over here in the U.S. we have gotten to see Dominic grow before our eyes. We know he is definitely capable of challenging for the world title. В Субботуwe expect him to be victorious and bring that back to America.”

WBC World Heavyweight Champion Deontay Wilder Sees Anthony Joshua-Dominic Breazeale Fight as 50-50
Breazeale Challenges Joshua This Суббота, Июнь 25,
On SHOWTIME BOXING INTERNATIONAL Live on SHOWTIME®
From The O2 in London
НЬЮ-ЙОРК (Июнь 22, 2016) – Unbeaten WBC World Heavyweight Champion Deontay Уайлдер can’t pick a clear winner for в эту субботу ночь Anthony Joshua-Dominic Breazeale world title clash.
The undefeated IBF Heavyweight World Champion Joshua (16-0, 16 КО) will make the first defense of his title against fellow unbeaten Доминик Breazeale(17-0, 15 КО) of Upland, Калифорния., на Showtime Бокс INTERNATIONAL®от The O2 в Лондоне, жить на ВРЕМЯ ДЛЯ ШОУ® на 5:15 p.m. И/2:15 p.m. PT.
Just a few hours later in Primetime on CBS (9 p.m. И/6 p.m. PT), Кит «Один раз» Турман will defend his WBA Welterweight World Title against former champ Shawn “Showtime” Porter in a welterweight blockbuster that headlines SHOWTIME ЧЕМПИОНАТ БОКС на CBS, представлен Premier Boxing Champions.
Уайлдер, who will be part of the in-studio SHOWTIME announce team covering the fight from New York City, is torn on who will triumph when Joshua makes the first defense of the world title he landed in April with a devastating second-round KO win over Charles Martin.
“I definitely see the fight as a 50-50,” said Wilder. “You’ve got two big heavyweights, and the challenger wants what the champion has, and the champion wants to keep what he has.
“It’s going to be interesting because we’ve seen Breazeale in a lot of wars. He’s almost been taken out by some of the smaller heavyweights. He’s been punched around, but he has always survived.
“We’ve seen Joshua (get) busted up as well, but he has kept his composure, and this fight is in his backyard amongst his people.
“I don’t put anything past Breazeale because he’s coming in hustlers’ territory. I think that it’ll be a good fight because of Breazeale – I think he really wants it.”
Wilder makes the fourth defense of his WBC strap on Июль 16 against Chris Arreola in his hometown of Alabama. The 30-year-old says that Joshua will feel like a different fighter as he goes into his first fight as world champion – but that there’s now an even bigger target on his back.
“Once you’ve got that belt, you feel like ‘I’m the man,’ ” said Wilder. “After the first fight, that’s when you really feel confident. You really feel you’re the man, you’re the champ. You’re the ruler once you’ve had your first defense.
“For Joshua, this is his first title defense, so he should feel some kind of security about himself and confidence about himself. But he’s going to find out that to continue his career and defend that title, these guys aren’t going to lay down after one punch or after two punches.
“They’re going to keep taking punches, they’re going to keep getting knocked down and they’re going to keep getting up. This is for a world title. This can bring you out of poverty, если вы понимаете, о чем я? По этой причине, these challengers are hungry. That’s one of the things that I had to realize.
“I put myself in their position. When I was a challenger, I was hungry and I already had the mentality that ‘you’re going to really have to kill me or hurt me bad to get me out of this ring.’ So that’s the mentality that these challengers have.
“It’s going to be interesting when you have a guy with a big heart that really, really wants it and I think Breazeale really wants it. We’re going to see where his heart is. I can’t say what kind of heart he has, but we’re going to see.”
Breazeale is following compatriot Charles Martin into Joshua’s Greenwich home area. “It takes a lot of courage, will and heart to fight in someone’s backyard,” said Wilder. “It takes someone that has confidence in themselves. And not to mention going to someone else’s country, because then the environment has completely changed. It’s a big difference and not a lot of guys are willing to travel outside of their country where they would be uncomfortable.
“Only a very few that really want to build their legacy, such as myself, will travel and have no problem. I don’t like to worry about judges or nothing. You go do what you have to do. That’s just my philosophy and mentality as a champion now. When you say the Heavyweight Champion of the World, that’s why this is tough, we travel all over the world.”

Both Joshua and Breazeale participated in an international media conference callв понедельник. Also taking part were Стивен Эспиноза, Исполнительный вице-президент и генеральный менеджер Showtime спорта; Эдди Херн, Managing Director of Matchroom Sport and Brittany Goossen-Brown of TGB Promotions introducing Breazeale.
Below are highlights of what the principals had to say on the conference call. A full transcript will be available in the coming days.
ANTHONY JOSHUA
Thoughts on his preparation for the fight:
“I feel great condition wise, and mentally I’m in a good place. I’ve never felt so relaxed because I just know I’m capable of doing it. I’ve trained weeks and years and it’s just about getting it right on the night of the fight. My tactics and my mind have not let me down so far, so that’s why I don’t want to change anything.
“I’m not putting too much pressure on myself. I’m going to attack the fight the same way I have my last 16 and put on an explosive show. That’s what the Americans love. They like knockouts and I won’t let them down.
“Every fight can be my last fight. As much as I would like to tell you I’m confident and ‘I’m going to do this, I’m going to do that’ I do understand I have to approach this as if it could be my last fight.
“I know he can hang around, he doesn’t go down easy. He’s a big guy, he can eat shots. The Dominic Breazeale I’m used to watching on YouTube and I’m reading about is the enhanced Dominic Breazeale – the Dominic Breazeale that is 50 percent better because I think he knows he wants to come prove himself on a global stage. And this is his chance come Суббота, so I need to prepare for the best of Breazeale.”
On going from being the hunter as a challenger to being the hunted as a champion:
“I’m not the cream of the crop in the gym. I’m around guys that are achieving things on the same level so I’m still hunting. I still have that mentality as if I’m a main killer in the jungle. I haven’t lost that hunger.
On potential to fight in the US in the future:
“I just keep on hearing the United States is where it’s happening. And if I come to the U.S., I’m going to shut it down.”
Thoughts on Breazeale’s performance against Amir Mansour:
“He’s a tough guy. He managed to go out there and break Mansour’s jaw and capture a win, which has led him into where he is now. Whichever angels were floating in the ring with him that day have led him to this point, so I’ve got to put an end to his dream.”
On winning a piece of the heavyweight championship in just his 16й про бой:
“It didn’t mean much. I still have another couple titles I need to get my hands on. I’m still hunting. There’s still work to be done. So it only ticked one of the boxes on my to-do list.”
ДОМИНИК BREAZEALE
“I’m out here very excited. Я не могу дождаться выхода на ринг Июнь 25 and shock the world, это точно. I’ve been lucky enough to prepare for the biggest fight of my life and I’m really super excited about it.”
On why he thinks he was selected for this matchup:
"Честно говоря, the way I see it is that someone didn’t do their research. They didn’t look deep enough. They didn’t find out enough about me and maybe they’re looking at me as just another football player that transitioned into boxing. And I’m hoping they’re overlooking me. It definitely can be a situation where they’re just watching one fight, especially my last fight. But there’s been a lot of tough ones. If they’re looking at that one situation, I’m glad because that’s to my liking.”
On his feelings about fighting overseas:
“The way I’m thinking about it is, Июнь 25, I gain 20,000 фанаты. I’m in a situation where I’m very confident going into this fight and I know for sure I’m going to put on a great show, come out victorious and go back to the U.S. с 20,000 UK fans.
“I definitely believe [Джошуа] realizes; he understands that he’s got a big test in front of him. He’s got a big fighter in front of him. He’s got a guy that’s going to break him down, test his will and see if he is a true champion.
“I am coming into this fight very confident and I’ve got some things that I know are going to work for me, as well as some things that I plan on exploiting out of Joshua.
“I’m blessed to have been picked for this fight and am thankful for this opportunity. The way I look at it, and the way I look at every fight that I go into, is that as long as I do everything that I need to do in the gym as far as sparring, preparation and training, running my miles, sleeping right and eating right – I’ve crossed all of my T’s and dotted all of my I’s. I’ve got nothing to worry about. I’ve got nothing to second-guess. I’ve done everything I’m supposed to and I just can’t wait to shine.”
Стивен Эспиноза, Исполнительный вице-президент и генеральный менеджер, Showtime спорта
“Anthony quickly went from a diamond in the rough to really one of the foremost stars in the UK and Europe, and we are happy to be his partner as he establishes his presence in North America.
“We are particularly excited about this bout because we have, pardon the phraseology, two behemoths. There are two skilled boxers, really the epitome of what heavyweight boxing should be – большой, strong athletes skilled in their sport, with amateur pedigree, meeting on the afternoon here in the US, evening in the UK to determine who is the best fighter.”
EDDIE HEARN, Президент, Matchroom Спорт
“Over here, the feeling is that it’s going to be quite a routine defense, but Anthony hasn’t trained like that. He is not expecting that. He knows the background and roots of Dominic Breazeale. He knows his skill, and he knows how dangerous he can be and he knows how hungry he is as well. I think you’re going to get a different kind of fight than the Charles Martin fight. I think you’re going to get a guy that’s not afraid to let his hands go. He’s not going to wait and the sold out O2 Arena is going to be an electric place to be.”
“SHOWTIME is a deal we are very excited about. To link up with an American broadcaster for us was an obvious move, but it was a move we had to choose carefully. And I think we chose very, very well in SHOWTIME.”
BRITTANY GOOSSEN-BROWN, TGB Акции
“Over here in the U.S. we have gotten to see Dominic grow before our eyes. We know he is definitely capable of challenging for the world title. В Субботу we expect him to be victorious and bring that back to America.”
