VERONA, N.Y.. (Jan. 13, 2018) – Unified Women’s Super Middleweight World Champion Claressa Shields dominated previously undefeated Tori Nelson en route to a 10-round unanimous decision in the main event of ShoBox: New Generation a Vandredi on SHOWTIME from Turning Stone Resort Casino.

 

 

 

Shields controlled from opening to closing bell, sweeping 100-90 on all three judges’ scorecards in the first 10-round distance fight of her career. Nan 2012 ak 2016 Olympic Gold Medalist out-landed Nelson 225-81 with her total punches, 186-70 in powers shots, and connected at a 44 percent clip with her power shots compared to just 20 percent for Nelson.

 

 

 

“I landed every shot that I thought possible to land,” Shields said. “She was tough, she wasn’t a pushover. She put on a good fight.”

 

 

 

Shields advanced to 5-0 with two knockouts in what was likely her final fight in the super middleweight division. The 22-year-old now has her sights set on the middleweight division where she will eventually target undefeated and Unified Women’s Middleweight World Champion Christina Hammer, who was ringside Vandredi nan Verona.

 

 

 

“I have to drop down and see how I feel (premye),” Shields said. “I think I could make 160 easy, I’m going to be bigger and stronger than any girl.

 

 

 

“Hammer just wants to scope. I think she’s pretty scared to be honest. She is more worried about me than I am about her. I’m going to kick Hammer’s ass. People think Hammer is more skilled than me so I can’t wait to show her that she’s not.”

 

 

 

Hammer, who is expected to fight in a co-featured bout on the next Shields card, was interviewed by SHOWTIME analyst Steve Farhood and expressed excitement to make her U.S. debut and eventually face the American champion.

 

 

 

“It’s a great combination me and her on the same card,” Hammer said. “I can’t wait to show the fans who Christina Hammer is. That will be the best fight ever. It will be the game-changer for female boxing. It’s our time to shine.

 

 

 

“I’m long-time world champion and I have more experience. I have longer reach, I’m tall, I have good footwork and better technique than her. I feel the energy, and I can’t wait to fight against her.”

 

 

 

The former world champion Nelson (17-1-3, 2 Ko) became the 173rd undefeated fighter to suffer their first professional loss on ShoBox: New Generation a.

 

 

 

“I’m not happy because I didn’t win, but other than that I thought I executed pretty well,” said the 41-year-old Nelson. “I gave her a better fight than she was expecting.

 

 

 

“No disrespect to Claressa, she doesn’t have great power. She has great speed and she overwhelms you with a lot of punches. My movement threw her off like I knew it would but knowing she was the champion, I needed to just push a little bit more.”

 

 

 

Nan la ShoBox ko-karakteristik, Jesse Hernandez narrowly defeated Ernesto Garza via split-decision in an action-packed fight that was scored 95-94 Hernandez, 95-93 Garza, 97-93 Hernandez.

 

 

 

After a close first round, Garza floored Hernandez with a flush left hand to the nose in the closing moments of the second round. Hernandez recovered, and while the middle rounds featured tremendous back-and-forth action, Hernandez seemingly had no trouble walking down Garza, who’s punches seemed to lack any real power. Garza (9-3, 5 Ko) found a second wind and seemed to pick up the eighth and ninth rounds until Hernandez roared back in an excellent 10th and final round that featured 178 pwenson manm.

 

 

 

Hernandez (11-1, 7 Ko) te ateri 50 percent of his power punches and connected on 40 percent of his punches compared to just 28 percent for Garza, however he threw just 719 total punches compared to more than 1,000 by Garza.

 

“I think it should have been a unanimous decision,” Hernandez said. “I’ve always been a slow starter and I feel like I lost the first two rounds, especially with the knockdown. But I won pretty much every round after that, I maybe lost three rounds.

 

 

 

“I’m not completely happy with my performance. I have to control my distance and my range a little bit better. I need to go back to the gym and work on those things. Before the summer comes I hope to have another fight and I hope it’s on SHOWTIME.

 

 

 

“I give Garza a lot of credit for getting in the ring and knocking me down. He hung in there for 10 rounds even after I caught him with some good shots. He was able to withstand those shots, but all that said, I still think it should have been a unanimous decision.”

 

 

 

Garza countered that sentiment.

 

 

 

“I thought it was a bogus decision,” Garza said. “I don’t understand that last judge’s card. I was happy with everything that I did. I executed well and did everything I needed to do to win the fight.

 

 

 

“I’m really disappointed with the outcome. I felt that I won. Pou mwen, I won a majority of the rounds and I knocked him down. I know knocking your opponent down usually leads to you winning the fight.”

 

 

 

Undefeated Uzbekistan power-puncher Shohjahon Ergashev handed Sonny Fredrickson the first loss of his career with an impressive third round TKO in the opening bout of the ShoBox difuze.

 

 

 

The win over the top-10 ranked Fredrickson extended Ergashev’s perfect record to 12-0 ak 12 debouchur.

 

 

 

The 26-year-old pressed the action from the beginning, negating Fredrickson’s five-inch reach advantage with a steady diet of well-timed, crisp punches. Ergashev landed a wide left to the head that stumbled Fredrickson in the opening minute of the third and continued to tee-off as his opponent wobbled against the ropes With Fredrickson (18-1, 12 Ko) unable to defend himself and eating a series of brutal lefts, referee Benjy Esteves stepped in to stop the bout at 1:58 nan twazyèm lan.

 

 

 

All of Ergashev’s 61 connects in the bout were power shots, and he connected on 77 percent of his power punches in the third and final round.

 

 

 

“The ref saved him,” Ergashev said. “If he let him stay on his feet any longer I would have knocked him out. He couldn’t handle my power.

 

 

 

“At this stage of my career, I am in the best shape of my life and the best I have felt. This is my time right now, especially because I am training with Rick (Phillips) ak (Javan) Sugar (Hill Steward). That’s what leads to all of my knockout power.

 

 

 

“I’m ready for whatever comes next. I’m ready for more fights in the U.S., and I want to keep getting more exposure to show off my skills. I’m ready to fight anybody in America.”

 

 

 

Fredrickson, who became the 172 fighter to suffer his professional loss on the prospect developmental series, suffered a jaw injury in the bout and was unavailable for comment.

 

 

 

Vandredi a tripleheader will replay on Lendi, Jan. 15 nan 10 p.m. AK/PT on SHOWTIME EXTREME and will be available on SHOWTIME on DEMAND® and SHOWTIME ANYTIME®.

QUOTES FINAL:

 

 

CLARESSA SHIELDS:

 

 

"Tori pote yon anpil plis agresyon, a lot more fight than a lot of my previous opponents. Sou papye, li gen rezime ki pi bon nan nenpòt ki opozan mwen te te fè fas ak ka mete yon batay pi bon.

 

 

 

"Tout moun èstime m 'paske nan gwosè m'. ankadreman mwen sanble mwen se yon 140 men vrèman mwen se yon 168. Tout moun ale nan yon batay panse yo ka genyen, but once that right hand lands everything changes. I’m going to go after her in the first round and get her out of there like Nikki Adler.

 

 

 

"Mwen atann mwen advèsè mwen an aplike presyon, ak sèvi ak kèk taktik sal. Li te gen plis eksperyans, men se pa ke anpil lè ou pale de eksperyans amatè li.

 

 

 

“She’s confident and she believes in herself. She thinks I haven’t earned my place yet. She doesn’t think I throw hard punches. Speed is power. She doesn’t get that.

 

 

 

"Sa a te gen yon kan difisil, Mwen vrèman pouse tèt mwen. Mwen konn fè sis semèn, tan sa a mwen te fè uit semenn. Mwen pa t 'goumen depi mwa dawout Se konsa, mwen te vle bay tèt mwen yon siplemantè de semèn Se konsa, mwen te konnen mwen te nan fòm pafè.

 

 

 

"Gen nan pa gen dout ke mwen kòmanse ane nan ak yon genyen, men mwen wè sa a kòm yon batay konpetitif. Mwen pral gen touche genyen an men mwen kwè mwen kapab KO li lè li te sizyèm lan, setyèm wonn. "

 

 

 

Tori NELSON:

 

 

"Mwen konnen mwen se pèrdan la, men mwen te tonbe nèf moun. Li pa te bay nòt yon sèl knockdown ankò kòm yon pro. Lè Claressa vire pro, Mwen te konnen mwen ta gen fè fas a li evantyèlman.

 

 

 

"Yon genyen se sa m 'te vin pou. I expect nothing different. I hope it would expose female boxing and not only open doors for me, men lòt bokseur fi vini apre m '.

 

 

 

"Mwen santi mwen li nan plis amizan yo gade yon batay fi. Lè fanm debarase tonbe, yo jwenn dwa tounen leve, li ale apre l 'ankò. Lè mesye jwenn frape desann, yo kòmanse kache paske yo pa vle jwenn frape ankò. Se konsa, mwen panse ke nou ta dwe jwenn peye menm jan anpil kòm mesye yo.

 

 

 

"Mwen beni yo dwe isit la, but I’m not a winner until I complete what I came here to do. And that’s win. The odds are definitely against me, men mwen pral choke mond lan.

 

 

 

“I want to take her into the deep waters. We don’t think she can beat us in a 10-round fight.

 

 

 

"Yo pa ap ale nan ban m 'anyen. I have to be a dog and go in there and win this fight. I’ve always been aggressive. Why change anything for her?"

 

 

 

JESSE HERNANDEZ

 

 

"Mwen jis ap eseye jwenn pi pre yon batay tit. Botwe moute classement yo se objektif prensipal la kounye a, ak mwen se sou wout la dwat. Genyen yon isit la nan yon batay 10-wonn ta dwe gwo pou karyè mwen.

 

 

 

"Pou ou kab vin yon avyon de gè tout-alantou se yon bagay mwen ap travay sou. Men, ou pa ka vin yon avyon de gè ki byen balanse jiskaske w jwenn eksperyans la ak batay yo ak se sa ki mwen ap travay sou fè kounye a. Mwen vle jwenn plis jij nan ak pwogrè.

 

 

 

"Goumen yon southpaw se pa yon pwoblèm pou m '. Mwen ka chanje pozisyon mwen, men li la pa yon bagay mwen panse osijè de oswa plan. Li jis k ap pase natirèlman nan yon batay.

 

 

 

"Mwen te toujou kwè nan tèt mwen, menm lè mwen te pran tan nan. Mwen kwè ke mwen te ka jwenn tounen nan li epi pou yo jwenn nan yon nivo tèt. The wins over two undefeated fighters did a lot for my confidence. I knew I could do it, men li te montre lòt moun mwen ye e ke mwen kapab fè konpetisyon nan nivo nan tèt. "

 

 

 

ERNESTO GARZA

 

 

"Mwen renmen yo pote presyon an, and he’s a pressure fighter too. We’ll see who backs up once we start throwing punches.

 

 

 

“I like to face fighters who come forward like him so I think everything will work for me. I plan on applying the pressure, ap resevwa l 'fatige nan jij yo lèt, ak pran l 'soti.

 

 

 

"Li gen tandans fè chanje, but I think that’s when he gets off-balance. He won’t bring anything I haven’t seen before.

 

 

 

“I’m fighting at my natural weight class this time. My last fight on ShoBox (kont undefeated Jon Fernandez) Mwen te goumen yon pwa pi wo.

 

 

 

“I don’t think his height and reach will give me any issues. I’ve been working with a lot of guys in the gym who have similar size and style. We’re ready for anything.

 

 

 

“A win would be a great step for me and my career. All the doors would open up for us.”

 

 

 

Apre Shakh nan:

 

 

"Mwen renmen fòmasyon isit la paske nan lefèt ke li nan yon atmosfè diferan isit la nan Etazini yo. Li se yon konfigirasyon reyèl pwofesyonèl, Mwen santi mwen ke ladrès m 'ak teknik mwen yo te vinn yon pi bon anpil fòmasyon isit la ak Sugar Hill.

 

 

 

"Mwen konnen ke li se yon avyon de gè ki gen eksperyans. Li se undefeated ak li te vini nan goumen. Li se yon gwo opòtinite pou tou de nan nou.

 

 

 

"Mwen trè onore yo dwe sou chotim ak kè kontan yo dwe ap resevwa sa a kalite ekspoze nasyonal. Genyen yon ta siman m 'tankou yonn nan pi bon kandida yo wèltèr jinyò nan mond lan.

 

 

 

"Mwen te vinn yon pi bon anpil fòmasyon nan Gym nan Kronk boksè nan Detroit. Dènye kan fòmasyon te yon entwodiksyon sou style la Ameriken an bòks ak kan sa a vrèman amelyore teknik m 'ak taktik ak bòks a entans.

 

 

 

"Mwen 11-0 ak 11 debouchur. Mwen se yon pèrswa e mwen vle frape l 'soti, men mwen te resevwa fòmasyon pou distans la. Mwen te resevwa fòmasyon yo frape yon moun soti nan premye tou an ak wonn nan wityèm.

 

 

 

"Sa a se yon gwo etap-up nan opozisyon, men mwen te te gen plis pase 200 batay amatè kont kèk nan bokseur yo amatè pi bon nan mond lan. Mwen te bat medaye Olympic ak anpil akonpli avyon de gè amatè. "

 

 

 

SONNY Fredrickson

 

 

"Mwen te ap tann pou ekspoze sa a pou yon tan long. Mwen te ap eseye jwenn sou televizyon pou de ou twa dènye ane yo, kidonk sa a se yon kontra gwo pou m '. Nou swete ke yon genyen monte desann m 'nan tèt la 5 epi li ba m 'yon piki tit nan fen ane sa a oswa nan konmansman an nan ane kap vini.

 

 

 

"Nou SPAR yon anpil ak Robert (Pak). It’s back-and-forth action. We grew up together and learn a lot from each other. Mwen ba l 'kèk endikasyon isit la epi gen li fè menm bagay la pou m'.

 

 

 

"Mwen pa konnen twòp sou advèsè mwen. Mwen konnen li se yon Lefty e li gen yon kout pyen fò. Li se yon bon chwa pou mwen. Li vle kenbe vini pou pi devan ak tout peyi vaksen gwo Se konsa, mwen pral kapab outbox l 'trè fasil.

 

 

 

"Mwen pa panse nè yo pral faktè. Mwen te goumen sou kat Andre Ward an, Mwen te nan batay gwo anvan.

 

 

 

"Mwen pral frape l 'soti apre wonn nan twazyèm. Mwen pral di, hey, resevwa l 'soti nan isit la.

 

 

 

"Apre sa a batay, fanatik ap kòmanse aprann non mwen. Mwen panse ke yo pral vle wè m 'gen yon piki nan la 140 liv tit. "

“ShoBox is the premier platform today for showcasing and developing young fighters,”Leanardi said. “We’ve seen the impact ShoBox can have firsthand with [former Super Middleweight and Former Light Heavyweight World Champion] Badou Jack. We’re confident that Sonny can achieve great success as well.”
