فيلادلفيا سفنتي سيكسرز, PA/ / البرتقالي, مثل. (سبعة. 21, 2020) – ليلة الجمعة, 9 أكتوبر, undefeated WBO number-two ranked featherweight contender روبن فيلا (18-0, 5 كوس) gets his much deserved world title shot when he takes on former WBO super bantamweight world champion, and WBO number-one ranked contender, Emanuel Navarrete (32-1, 28 كوس), in a battle for the WBO World Featherweight title.


Navarrete is undefeated in the last eight-years, which spans 27 المعارك.


The fight will take place atThe Bubbleinside the MGM Grand Conference Center, and will be televised live on ESPN and ESPN Deportes.


I have been working my butt off since I was a little kid for this opportunity, and I just can’t wait to get in there and fight for the title,” سعيد فيلا, who is promoted by الترقيات راية و طومسون الملاكمة. “Navarrete is a real aggressive Mexican fighter. He is coming to win. He was a former champion, and I am the underdog, but I have the style to beat him. We have kept the camp the same. We just treat it like it’s every other fight, just that this fight is for a world title. All my hard work is paying off. I am honored and excited to represent everyone who has supported me and my journey to become a world champion, and I plan on bringing the world title back to my home city of Salinas, كاليفورنيا.”


This is what we envisioned for Ruben when we signed him out of the amateurs, to be fighting for a world title,” قال أرتي Pelullo, رئيس الترقيات راية. “That opportunity has now arrived, and we expect Ruben to put on a great performance on October 9th and win the WBO Featherweight World Title. I would be remiss if I didn’t thank ستيفن اسبينوزا و جوردون قاعة of Showtime for all their help with the development of Ruben’s career, by showcasing him on ShoBox that has helped get him ready for this fight.


Ruben Villa is a terrific fighter and has the ability to make his dream to become a world champion a reality. The hard work that Banner Promotions and us at Thompson Boxing have put on his career will surely pay off,” قال كين تومسون, CEO of Thompson Boxing. “Navarrete is a terrific champion and it will be a huge challenge for our fighter, but I’m sure Ruben will rise up to the occasion and make us all proud.

Below are excerpts from the interview with Espinoza:

On SHOWTIME Sports’ interim content plan…

Espinoza – “It is therapeutic to look forward to and make plans for things that are more reflective of normal life for us, مئه بالمئه. Our goal is to fill that gap with a lot of the stuff we have. We have a deep library of documentaries and we are definitely surfacing a lot more of the archive bothعلى الطلب and we will look at it on linear more regularly.”

On what lies ahead when boxing resumes…

Espinoza – “It’s going to be a wild ride. There’s a lot to be made up. There are a lot of fighters that need fights to happen, and I think we could be in for a pretty interesting period of time where there’s a lot of activity in a relatively short windowI think we’re going to see an action-packed, jam-packed schedule whenever we return, whether it’s in three, six or nine months – and we may see people taking a different tact on taking fights.”

On what fight you wish you could go back in time to attend live …

Espinoza – “Chavez vs. Haugen on February 20,1993 for the WBC Light Welterweight Title at Azteca Stadium in Mexico City… It wasn’t a great fight or great opponent but it’s my pick because of the legendary status that fight has within Showtime’s hallways. كان هناك 132,000 الناس في الحضور, you had Chavez taking the presidential helicopter to events [و] you had Don King getting robbed on his way from the airport to the hotel as soon he got into town. There were so many things around the atmosphere. It was one of those legendary events I would’ve loved to be at for the atmosphere.”

The weekly SHOWTIME BOXING podcast features Raskin and Mulvaney diving deep into the boxing and SHOWTIME boxing events. New episodes are release in all major podcast platforms every Monday, including Radio.com.

هذا ما قاله المقاتلون والمسؤولون التنفيذيون:

GERVONTA DAVIS:
خواطر عن جامبوا والارتقاء في الوزن:
“نحن نعلم أن جامبوا من المحاربين القدامى وأنه خاض الكثير من الحروب, لذلك نحن نعلم أن لدينا معركة صعبة. إنه خطير بالتأكيد. يمكنه أن يضرب. وقال انه يمكن محاربة.

“معركته الأخيرة التي قام بها 134, لذلك نعرف أنه يمكن أن يصبح أكبر مني بهذا الوزن. سأخوض في هذا مع العلم أنه مقاتل أكبر مني. سأقوم فقط بجلب قوتي والاستفادة من فئة الوزن تلك وأصبح بطل العالم.

“أعتقد أنني أحد أفضل المقاتلين في العالم, لكني لا أقارن نفسي بالمقاتلين الآخرين. أنا فقط أخرج وأنجز المهمة.

“أتلانتا هي بيتي الثاني. أنا واثق من أنني سأبيعها.”

على قدرته وتفرده كمقاتل:
“لقد جئت من قماش مختلف عن هؤلاء الرجال الآخرين. لقد مررت بكل شيء في حياتي. الكثير من الناس لم يختبروا ما لدي. إذا تعرضت للهزيمة في أي وقت ، يجب أن يكون ذلك من قبل شخص مر بما مررت به. لا يمكن أن يكون أي شخص يتدرب طوال حياته.

“في كل مرة أخطو فيها إلى الحلبة ، أرغب في ترك كل شيء هناك. لم ير الكثير من الناس مهاراتي الكاملة لأنني لم أقاتل خصمًا أخرجهم.”

عن إمكاناته في الرياضة:
“لم ير عالم الملاكمة إمكاناتي الحقيقية كمقاتل, لقد رأوا للتو قوتي. أنا من الملاكم حيث لا تنتمي معي, لن تكون هناك لفترة طويلة. يحب بعض المقاتلين أن يأخذوا وقتهم. أنا من النوع, إذا كنت أعلم أنك لست في مستواي, سأريها. سيرى العالم. سأقاتل أي شخص.”

JACK بادو:
في مباراته القادمة ضد باسكال:
“انا متحمس لهذه المعركة. اتصلت بالفعل باسكال قبل يوم من معركته الأخيرة وأخبرته أنني أتأصل له. ولكن هذا عمل في نهاية اليوم. أنا قادم لاستعادة لقبي.”

حول ما يشعر به في هذا العمر:
“أشعر وكأنني شاب 36 سنة. أعيش حياة نظيفة. أنا دائمًا أتدرب في صالة الألعاب الرياضية وأحاول ألا أعاقب. بقي لدي بضع سنوات وأنا متحمس الآن أكثر من أي وقت مضى. كنت بحاجة إلى تلك الراحة الصغيرة. لم أحصل على استراحة منذ أن كنت هاوًا قبل عشرين عامًا. لقد قضيت وقتًا في الاسترخاء مع العائلة وتناول طعامًا جيدًا. الان انا جائع.”

عن أدائه الأخير ضد ماركوس براون:
“كل من رآني في معركتي الأخيرة يمكن أن يرى أنني كنت مسطحًا. بدأت غريزتي القتالية في تلك المرحلة. كان يقاتل رجلاً ميتًا.”

في مباراة ديفيس. مباراة جامبوا:
“انها معركة كبيرة. جامبوا أكبر بقليل, لكنه بدا جيدًا في قتاله الأخير. أنا كبير, مروحة كبيرة من تانك – الطريقة التي يحارب بها, سرعته, الألعاب الرياضية له, كل شىء. لديه قوة النجوم. كان على بطاقتي السفلية, الآن أنا في بلده. سيحقق أشياء رائعة لهذه الرياضة وطالما بقي مركزًا, سيكون نجما. إنه بالفعل نجم.”

ليونارد ELLERBE:
في ديفيس’ المركز والتقدم في الرياضة:
“سوف نظهر للجميع كيف سيصبح أكبر نجم في هذه الرياضة. في 2020 سنقوم بتفجير هذا من الماء. لقد تمكنا من التفكير خارج الصندوق. هذه هي الطريقة التي تنمي بها الرياضة. لقد بذلنا جهودًا متضافرة لنقله إلى التيار الرئيسي; العمل مع بالتيمور رافينز, موكبه, الآن أتلانتا.

“خطتنا هي إجراء أكبر وأفضل المعارك هناك. سنستدعي الأمر وسيكون ذلك وفقًا لشروطنا, وسنعلم الجميع عندما يحدث ذلك. الكل يريد محاربة دبابة. هناك شيء واحد مشترك عندما تتحدث عنه 126, 130, 135, والآن 140. هناك اسم واحد مشترك بين المقاتلين وهو الدبابة. ستكون هذه رحلة رائعة ومن الأفضل أن تبدأها الآن.

“إذا استطاع تجاوز غامبوا في ديسمبر 28, ثم في 2020 سيذهب إلى عالم الدفع لكل مشاهدة. عندما يكون لديك هذا النوع من قوة النجوم وكنت تفكر خارج منطقة الجزاء, ليس فقط مشجعي الملاكمة, سنقوم بعمل أكبر المعارك في العالم.”

على بادو جاك:
“Badou حلم المروج. إنه رجل لا يمنحك أي مشاكل. إنه هناك يفعل أشياء رائعة له ولعائلته. إنه يفعل الكثير لمساعدة الكثير من الآخرين. إنه يستخدم منصته بالطريقة الصحيحة. يشرفني العمل مع مقاتل مثله.

“كنت أعلم دائمًا أنه كان موهوبًا رائعًا وأحيانًا يمكنك العثور على الماس في الخام. الجميع ينظرون دائمًا إلى اللاعبين الذين يخرجون من الأولمبياد. رأيناه في صالة الألعاب الرياضية وقد أفسد الرجل حقًا. كنا نراقبه وتوصلنا إلى اتفاق مع لو [DiBella] والباقي هو التاريخ.

“كان لدينا نكسة واحدة, ولكن كل شيء يحدث لسبب ما, وانطلق للتو منذ ذلك الحين. إنه مقاتل رائع وأنا أحب حقيقة أنه مستعد دائمًا لمحاربة الأفضل. لم يضطر أبدًا للتخمين أنه مستعد لمحاربة الجميع.”

ستيفن اسبينوزا:
“هناك مزايا وعيوب للترويج لعرض ما في هذا التاريخ. كان هناك الكثير من النجاح في الترويج للعروض الموسيقية في عطلة نهاية الأسبوع تلك. إنه ليس تفاحًا إلى تفاح, ولكن هذا أحد العوامل التي ظهرت وهناك طريقة لتحويل هذا إلى شيء مميز وفريد ​​بسبب قاعدة المعجبين بـ Gervonta.

“إنه لأمر رائع أن يكون لدينا ملاكمون ماهرون ولكننا بحاجة, من أجل صحة الرياضة, الرجال مثل Gervonta الذين يضعون بأعقاب في المقاعد. هذا هو المفتاح لإحضاره إلى أتلانتا. الملاكمة جزء من ثقافة تعبر إلى الموسيقى والرياضة. لا يوجد رياضي لا يشاهد مباراة ملاكمة للدفع مقابل المشاهدة. إن الاستفادة من ذلك بشخصية مثل تانك سيؤدي فقط إلى توسيع هذه الرياضة.

“هناك أصالة وانفتاح حول Gervonta. هناك الكثير من الناس الذين لديهم نكسات لا يتحدثون عنها, مثل دبابة. إن الحديث عن هذا الأمر ينطوي على مخاطرة ، ولهذا السبب يمكن للعديد من الأشخاص التواصل. هذا دبابة. ما تراه هو ما تحصل عليه. إنه حقيقي للغاية. إنه حقيقي للغاية وأعتقد أن هذا هو السبب في أن الناس يتواصلون معه باعتباره الشخص الذي يعارضه المقاتل.”

لوس انجليس (يوليو 28, 2018) – Mikey Garcia became the 10عشر lightweight champion to unify the division with a unanimous decision against Robert Easter Jr. Saturday on SHOWTIME, and immediately afterward set his sights on boxing’s best, namely Errol Spence Jr.

Full fight highlights here: HTTPS://s.sho.com/2LzlnJ6

 

 

 

 

All three judges scored the fight in favor of Garcia,118-109, 117-110, 116-111, in an electrifying fight in front of 12,560 fans at Staples Center in an event presented by Premier Boxing Champions.

 

 

 

 

The four-division world champion Garcia (39-0, 30 كوس) – who was fighting in his native Southern California for the first time in seven years – keeps his 135-pound WBC title, and also claims Easter’s IBF Lightweight belt

 

 

 

 

“I’m here for the biggest challenges,قال جارسيا, 30, who unified a title for the first time in his career. “I don’t know if there is anyone that is a bigger challenge than Errol Spence. I know he’s up to fight everyone so let’s make it happen. I think it can be made. I think that’s the next big fight coming up.

 

 

 

 

“I feel I have the power and the skillset to compete in any division up to welterweight. He’s the toughest guy at welterweight so I want to face him.”

 

 

 

 

Garcia scored a knock down in the third round against Easter (21-1, 14 كوس) توليدو, أوهايو, who was sent to the canvas for just the second time in his career. A strong right jab put Easter out of position, immediately followed by a devastating left hook sent Easter down with 24 seconds remaining in the round.

 

 

 

 

Garcia got better as the fight progressed. In the final four rounds Garcia out-landed Easter 95-34 in total punches and ended the fight being the more active fighter throwing 555 punches to Easter’s 507. He connected on nearly 40 percent of his power shots while Easter landed at a 24 مقطع في المئة.

 

 

 

 

“It’s a great accomplishment being here in L.A.,” Garcia said. “I was in control most of the fight, and I did what I had to do. I knew he was a tough opponent. He’s a tough warrior. He gave a great fight but I was a better fighter. I was in control of the fight and I did what I had to do to win.”

 

 

 

 

عيد الفصح, who went into the Garcia locker room after the fight to congratulate his opponent, was gracious in defeat.

 

 

 

 

“Whenever we step in the ring we are both putting our lives on the line and tonight Mikey was victorious,” said Easter, who entered the fight as the longest reigning champion at 135 جنيه. “I just couldn’t find the timing and I just couldn’t let my right hand go. He caught me with a clean shot and I went down, but I got up like a true champion.”

 

 

 

 

 

During an interview at the SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING host desk, سبنس, a fellow top-five pound-for-pound great, said he would “definitely” welcome a fight with Garcia. “I feel like that’s the best fight available for me right now with Shawn [ارتداء] and Danny [غارسيا] fighting in September. Keith Thurman is still recovering and needs a tune up.

Full interview here: HTTPS://s.sho.com/2veXH1T.

 

 

 

 

“He’s daring to be great, he wants to be great, he wants to move up and dethrone me and it’s not going to happen. It’s definitely going to be an easy fight. [غارسيا] will be pound-for-pound No. 1 if he beats me. He has great skills but I see myself winning. I don’t really see anything that concerns me. He’s technically good, but I don’t see him hurting me at 147.”

 

 

 

 

Heavyweight southpaw Luis Ortiz (29-1, 25 كوس) returned to the ring with a resounding victory, scoring a devastating second round knockout (2:08) of former world title challenger Razvan Cojanu (16-4, 9 كوس)

 

 

 

 

Ortiz landed 42 في المئة من الطلقات سلطته (eight of 19) while Cojanu landed just two of 13 (15%) in the short fight.

 

 

 

 

Ortiz was emotional after the fight. He told SHOWTIME’s Jim Gray that just five days ago he learned doctors have found a cure for Epidermolysis Bullosa, a disease his daughter suffers from.

 

 

 

 

“Thanks to God they found a cure for my daughter’s disease,” Ortiz said. “My wife told me while I was boarding the plane to get here. It’s been hard to be away from them. I’m happy I won, but it’s been really hard to be away from them.”

 

 

 

 

 

Both fighters were coming off losses in heavyweight world title fights. Ortiz was fighting for the first time since challenging Deontay Wilder in a 2018 قتال المرشح السنة. The 6-foot-4 Ortiz wasted little time knocking out the 6-feet-7½, 269-pound Cojanu, returning for his first fight since challenging then-WBO Heavyweight Champion Joseph Parker.

 

 

 

 

 

“In my mind King Kong has not been defeated. I don’t feel I lost against Deontay Wilder. I want to fight [أنتوني] جوشوا, but he only fights boxers he’s sure he can defeat. I’m going to ask the government to put me on disability, maybe that way Joshua will fight me.”

 

 

 

 

في افتتاح بالتليفزيون, ماريو باريوس (22-0, 14 كوس) remained undefeated recording his sixth straight stoppage with an eighth-round TKO of Jose Roman (24-3-1, 14 كوس) in a scheduled 10-round welterweight match. Each of the judges, as well as SHOWTIME expert scorer Steve Farhood, scored the fight 80-70 in favor of Barrios at the time of the stoppage as Roman’s corner didn’t answer the bell for the ninth round.

 

 

 

 

San Antonio’s Barrios relied on effective body work in dominating the fight, يربط على 61 من له 133 طلقات الجسم. He connected on 44 في المئة من اللكمات سلطته (104/239) مقارنة ب 26 percent for Roman (34/132), who had just five body shots on the night.

 

 

 

 

"[Body work] is something I’ve been able to work on,” Barrios told Gray in the ring. “You put the body work in early and by the end of the fight they have nothing left. That worked perfectly for this fight. This was the farthest I’ve gone in a while. It was great work and I feel like I’m transitioning to the fighter that I always thought I’ve be.”

 

 

 

 

أحياء, who suffered a cut above his left eye in the first round, sent Roman to the canvas at 1:15 of the fourth round with a strong right that dazed Roman, then a left hook that put Roman down for the seventh time in his career. Barrios ended the round with a flurry of punches that left Roman stunned.

 

 

 

 

 

The 23-year-old Barrios sent Roman down again with 1:38 remaining in the eighth round. Roman survived the round, but his corner refused to answer the bell and the fight was over.

 

 

 

 

“I feel I’m ready [for a title shot)],” Barrios said. “I feel strong. I feel fast. أنا شاب, but whatever my managers throw at me I’m ready. If I could get it tomorrow, I’d take it.”

 

 

 

 

 

It was a star-studded night at Staples as current and former world champions attended the fights, including Jarrett Hurd, ايرول سبنس الابن, ليو سانتا كروز, أبنير ماريس, Gervonta Davis and Adrien Broner.

 

 

 

 

 

Shawn Porter was also in attendance. It was recently announced that Porter and fellow former 147-pound world title holder Danny Garcia will square off against one another for the vacant WBC Welterweight World Championship live on SHOWTIME Saturday, سبعة. 8 من مركز باركليز في بروكلين, N.Y..

 

 

 

 

“I’m just a different type of athlete,” Porter told SHOWTIME’s Brian Custer. “When you talk about having the tools to become a two-time world champion; I have the tools, the athleticism, the tenacity the ring generalship. You will see all of that on Sept. 8.

 

 

 

 

 

“We always say that the business has to make sense [to make fights], And it sounds to me like the business has played its part. I win the WBC Championship and you’ll get Shawn Porter vs. Errol Spence.”

 

 

 

 

 

In streaming coverage of live undercard fights on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING COUNTDOWN, undefeated super lightweight prospect Fabian Maidana (16-0, 12 كوس), the brother of former champion Marcos Maidana, recorded a seventh-round stoppage (2:32) against former world title challenger Andrey Klimov (19-5, 9 كوس).

Here is what the press conference participants had to say Thursday from Conga Room at L.A. لايف:

 

MIKEY غارسيا

 

 

 

This will be my first title unification match. It means a lot to face another unbeaten champion. It will help my legacy and my career. I’m taking the proper steps to move forward and cement my name for the ages.

 

 

 

There isn’t another fight in front of me right now that gets me excited other than this one against Robert Easter Jr. انه سوف يأتي مع كل ما لديه. This is definitely his biggest fight and I believe we’ll be able to bring the best out of each other.

 

 

 

Me and Robert Easter Jr. are the only unbeaten champions in the division. So in my eyes, the winner is the best fighter in the division.

 

 

 

I’m very happy to be fighting again in Los Angeles. It’s been seven years since I fought here. To give fans a chance to see this big fight live at STAPLES Center is a great thing. I’m very thankful that we could have the fight here. Most opponents wouldn’t have come here.

 

 

 

I’m coming back to STAPLES Center as a world champion and I have a chance to unify in my hometown. There’s nothing better that I could ask for. I’m going to do everything I can to come out victorious on Saturday night.

 

 

 

I’m glad that Robert is confident coming into this fight. I believe that he will show up the best possible version of himself. That’s what gets me even more motivated and excited for this fight.

 

 

 

I’m here to take the biggest fights and biggest challenges. I will be at welterweight very soon and I look forward to taking on the best there. Everyone says not to do it, and that’s what excites me and motivates me the most.

 

ROBERT EASTER JR.

 

 

 

I really don’t pay attention to being ‘overlookedor what my opponents say leading up to a fight. في يوليو 28 we still have to get in there and throw these hands. Nothing said by him or anyone outside bothers me at all.

 

 

 

The only big name Mikey Garcia has beaten is Adrien Broner. I’m going to give him problems. I believe with our skills and record, the winner of this fight is the best fighter in the weight class.

 

 

 

This can add big attention to my career. It can help me get the recognition that I deserve. I look at all my fights like a big fight, but obviously this is unification. You will see two warriors in there on Saturday.

 

 

 

It’s been a long time since I made my pro debut at STAPLES Center. You’re going to get a lot of action and excitement on Saturday night. Expect the unexpected.

 

 

 

I had such a great training camp with coach Cunningham and my dad. It was all boxing all the time and really what I needed heading into a matchup like this.

 

 

 

Everyone will be able to see my hard work pay off on Saturday night. I’m not the one who likes to talk about it, I want to show everybody what I got.

 

 

 

These are the kind of fights that I’ve always wanted to be a part of. It’s a big fight that I know the fans are going to really enjoy. I’m going to give them something to remember.

 

 

 

Being the underdog is what it is. Only one of us can be the favorite. We did what we had to do to prepare for this fight and on July 28 you’ll see it all in action.

 

ROBERT غارسيا, Mikey’s Brother and Trainer

 

 

 

There’s always risk in any fight. We’re very well-prepared for this big challenge and Mikey is in a great place mentally. Easter is a tall guy who I’m sure will try to use his reach and fight from the outside. But we’ll be ready for whatever he brings.

 

 

 

This is obviously a big fight for Mikey against another elite boxer. When two undefeated guys are unifying, it’s always big. We had great sparring partners who prepared Mikey to be at his very best.

 

 

 

We’re ready for the best Robert Easter possible. I’m not even looking at his past two performances. We’ve done what we had to do to be ready for this fight and the best version of our opponent.

 

كيفن CUNNINGHAM, Easter’s Co-Trainer

 

 

 

Robert has always been a tremendous fighter and an excellent boxer when he wants to box. We just put extra emphasis on how we want to fight Mikey Garcia. Robert has the natural skill and ability, plus the size and reach to get this done.

 

 

 

We’re prepared to dictate the tempo, control distance and range and do everything we want to do. We’ve done it so far in camp and we’re going to bring it into the ring on Saturday night.

 

 

 

It’s obvious for the last couple of weeks that Garcia has been talking more about future fights than this fight on Saturday night. I look at that as him overlooking Easter. لكن, Mikey is a pro with a seasoned trainer so I doubt he’s being totally overlooked. He better be ready.

 

ROBERT EASTER SR., Easter’s Father & Co-Trainer

 

 

 

I always feel very confident about Robert’s chances every time he steps into the ring. We had a good camp and I know he’s ready. He’s always ready, just like he’s been for every fight leading up to this one.

 

 

 

This fight is going to live up to the hype. Robert is going to go out there and show the world what he is really made of.

 

 

 

We’re going to go out there and get the win. We’re going to impose our game plan on Mikey and make it a really long night for him.

 

LUIS ORTIZ

 

 

 

My hunger and motivation to become world champion has not changed at all. My opponent is very big, but in the ring everyone is the same size. We’re going to be smart and I’m going to do my job on Saturday night.

 

 

 

The Wilder fight is what it is. It’s the past now, and I don’t regret it. At the end of the day I want the rematch and I believe I deserve the rematch. They’re still running from me and they’re obviously running from Wilder, but I’m running from no one.

 

 

 

A victory on Saturday night will put me back in line for the rematch with Deontay Wilder. Fighting is what I know how to do, and that’s what I’m coming to do on Saturday night. We’re both hungry for a win and we will see who comes out on top.

 

 

 

I learned that I need to train even harder, fight harder, throw more and connect more. If I hadn’t been fatigued, I’d still be punching him today. I threw the clock away at the gym. We’re going to be smarter going forward.

 

RAZVAN COJANU

 

 

 

I am very ready for this matchup. When we got this call, I was already in shape. We just had to make the adjustment to fighting a southpaw. We have about a month of really fun sparring leading up to this fight.

 

 

 

I feel very comfortable against the southpaw, especially one that everyone is familiar with like Ortiz. I know I have the skills to take home the victory.

 

 

 

The Wilder vs. Ortiz fight was a great fight and I congratulate him for that performance. I saw plenty of things that I can expose. The main thing is the sharp one-two combination that gives him trouble.

 

MARIO BARRIOS

 

 

 

This is definitely the toughest test of my career. I’m very happy to have this big fight. This is going to be the breakout performance that I’ve been looking for.

 

 

 

Whichever title is available to me is the title we’ll go after. It doesn’t matter who I have to face, سأكون جاهزا. I’m gunning for the very best.

 

 

 

This is a great opportunity to make my debut on SHOWTIME. This is a card packed with talent, but I plan on stealing the show. I’m going to show everyone the kind of fighter that I am.

 

 

 

I know that Roman is going to come to fight but so am I. I can’t wait to fight in this building. All the greats have fought here and I can’t wait to put on a great show.

 

JOSE ROMAN

 

 

 

 

“أحياء’ best weapon would be his speed and his range and I think we have the perfect game plan to oppose it. I know that I have to be patient in there because I have a difficult opponent. I’m doing this for my family and no one can stop me.

 

 

 

A win over Mario Barrios would be huge for me. The fans can come in there expecting a war between two Mexican warriors who will leave it all in the ring.

 

 

 

When I’m not fighting I’m going to Cyprus College and majoring in Mathematics. I’ve been really good at math since I was a kid. I’m on a great track right now in my boxing career and in life.

 

ريتشارد SCHAEFER, رئيس & الرئيس التنفيذي لشركة Ringstar الرياضة

 

 

 

This is a top to bottom amazing card. It’s a boxing spectacular taking place here at STAPLES Center. We have a little bit of everything on this card. That includes talent from Robert Garcia’s gym, أكثر 2016 الامريكى. Olympian Karlos Balderas, who I believe will one day be headlining at STAPLES Center one day.

 

 

 

The televised portion of this card has a stellar lineup as well, including an undefeated Mario Barrios, who represents Texas well and makes his state proud. He’s one of the most exciting fighters in the division and will have a tough challenge in Jose Roman.

 

 

 

Luis Ortiz is the kind of fighter that you just don’t want to miss a minute of when he fights. He is coming off of one of the best fights of this year, when he challenged WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder.

 

 

 

The matchup between Mikey Garcia and Robert Easter Jr. is the cherry on top of an amazing night. I know that these fighters are ready to entertain and showcase their talent.

ستيفن اسبينوزا, رئيس الرياضة & البرمجة الحدث, شوتايم شبكات المؤتمر الوطني العراقي.

 

 

 

There are fighters who say they want tough fights and then there are fighters who actually take tough fights. There’s a big difference between these two. Mikey Garcia and Robert Easter Jr. are the fighters who actually take the top fights.

 

 

 

This is the third world title unification on SHOWTIME this year. No other network has delivered this level of fights to boxing fans. That’s more world title unifications than all the other networks combined this year.

 

 

 

Mikey is a top pound-for-pound fighter and Easter is the longest reigning champion at lightweight and probably the most avoided fighter in the division. No one is rushing to fight either of these guys, بعد, this was an easy fight to make.

SAN ANTONIO (مارس 11, 2018) - ميكي غارسيا captured a world title in his fourth weight division, outpointing previously undefeated سيرغي Lipinets to win the IBF Junior Welterweight World Championship السبت on SHOWTIME from Freeman Coliseum in San Antonio.

مع النصر, غارسيا (38-0, 30 كوس) joined Manny Pacquiao and Juan Manuel Marquez as the only fighters in history to win titles at 126, 130, 135 و 140 جنيه.

“It’s a great feeling. Winning this fourth title in a fourth division is an honor,” Garcia said. “To get to be mentioned with Manny Pacquiao and Juan Manuel Marquez is a huge honor for me. It just leaves a little chapter in boxing with my name, my brother, والدي. I think people will remember the Garcia family for ages to come.”

غارسيا, who was fighting for just the second time at 140 جنيه, relied on a steady diet of combos to back up Lipinets, who was making the first defense of the IBF title he won last November on SHOWTIME. Garcia floored Lipinets for the first time in his career, connecting on a counter left hook midway through the seventh in a rousing moment that sent the pro-Garcia crowd at Freeman Coliseum to their feet.

غارسيا, who won by scores of 116-111 و 117-110 مرتين, اتصال على 46 في المئة من قوته مقارنةً بـ 36 percent for the defending champion.

“He came in exactly as I expected – a very tough, very hungry and strong fighter,” Garcia said. “We worked with angles behind the jab. He’s very dangerous, but we had a great game plan and we were able to prevail.

“I know I carry the power, but I was fighting a bigger man and he could take a punch. I didn’t want to get caught and I had to be patient.”

بعد المعركة, غارسيا, who still holds the WBC title at lightweight, reiterated his mantra that he’s seeking the biggest fights available, regardless of weight division.

“What I love is I have all the options,” Garcia said. “I could go down to 135 to unify titles, which is what I really want to do. And in a couple of fights you’re going to see me at 147.

Despite being the defending champion, Lipinets (13-1, 10 كوس) was fighting in just his 14عشر professional fight. The Russian, who was born in Kazakhstan, delivered a valiant effort against one of the best pound-for-pound fighters in the world.

“It was probably experience that took over at some point,” Lipinets said. “Mikey is a great fighter, he can obviously crack. It was just experience that I was lacking.

“I want to go back in the gym and work on the problems I showed in the ring. There are a couple of holes I need to close. سوف اعود. It’s a learning experience.”

In a rematch of one of 2017’s best and most controversial fights, Kiryl Relikh handed former two-division world champion Rances بارتيليمي the first loss of his career with a wide unanimous decision victory to capture the vacant WBA Super Lightweight World Championship.

Relikh (22-2, 19 كوس) was the more active fighter and controlled the co-main event of the SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast from the opening bell, رمي 1,237 total punches compared to just 494 for Barthelemy. Relikh, who many thought won their first matchup, consistently worked off his jab, يربط على 103 punches per round while Barthelemy landed an average of just 41.

While Barthelemy (26-1, 13 كوس) won a disputed and wide decision in their first bout there was no controversy in the judges’ scorecards in the rematch, الذي تم تسجيله 117-110 و 118-109 مرتين.

Relikh became just the third fighter from Belarus to win a world title while Barthelemy came up short in his bid to become the first Cuban to win a world title in three weight divisions.

“Last time I was not ready,” Relikh said. “I didn’t have proper preparation in the first fight but this time, with my new trainers, كنت على استعداد. انا سعيد جدا. I’ve waited for this dream for 20 سنوات. I’ve worked hard for this dream and now it’s mine.

Coming in we were looking to box all the way. My jab has developed so much since the last fight. They probably thought that I would run out of gas like last time, but I trained like a champion this time. Everything was geared toward becoming champion and that’s what we did هذه الليلة."

بارتيليمي, who picked up the pace a bit in the final three rounds, didn’t dispute the decision.

My heart is broken because I came in to this fight trying to get that third world title,” Barthelemy said. “I have to admit defeat and say that Relikh deserved to win that fight, but I will be back.

“At this point I have to look forward and put it behind me.

The featured attraction of the SHOWTIME BOXING on SHO EXTREME telecast saw San Antonio’s own ماريو باريوس (21-0, 13 كوس) deliver a sensational second round knockout of Eudy Bernardo (23-3, 17 كوس) in front of his hometown fans.

I definitely made a statement هذه الليلة,"قال باريوس. “I showed the 140-pound division that I’m here and ready for any of them.”

Barrios was dominant from the start and struck early in the second with a vicious straight right that put Bernardo down. Although Bernardo got to his feet and beat the count, referee Jon Schorle had seen enough and waved off the bout 45 seconds into the second round of the super lightweight affair.

I wasn’t going in there looking for the knockout, but I caught him early,"قال باريوس. “I’ve been on a good run and I’m ready to continue that streak. We’re moving up the ranks fight by fight. I’m looking to get a title eliminator by the end of the year and hopefully a title shot early next year.

في المباراة الافتتاحية لبثت SHO EXTREME, ريتشارد كومي (26-2, 23 كوس) scored a sixth-round TKO of اليخاندرو لونا (22-1, 15 كوس) in their IBF Lightweight World Title Eliminator.

Despite the win, my performance wasn’t up to the level that I hoped it would be,” said Commey. “He was exactly what I expected and if I had connected on more of my punches in the beginning I think the fight would have been over earlier. I was really trying to work on what we had been focusing on in camp but I just wasn’t performing well at the start of the fight.”

The fight was defined by exciting exchanges throughout, with Commey, fighting on his 31شارع عيد ميلاد, getting the better early and connecting with power punches that caused Luna’s jaw to swell. Commey’s power broke through in round six when a powerful combination punctuated by a left uppercut sent Luna to the canvas for the first time in his career.

“أنا محبط جدا,” said Luna. “All the credit to Commey, but I expect more of myself and I’m going to get back in the gym and come back much stronger and better.

Luna rose to his feet but was quickly pounced on by Commey, الذي هبط 62 percent of his power punches in the round, and was sent to the mat again. This forced referee David Fields to call a halt to the bout at 1:54 of round six. Commey now becomes the mandatory challenger for IBF Lightweight World Champion Robert Easter, who Commey lost a split decision to in September 2016.

It is the greatest feeling to get the win on my 31st birthday,” said Commey. “I am looking forward to fighting for the 135-pound world title and becoming champion.

The SHO EXTREME swing bout featured unbeaten prospect براندون فيغيروا (15-0, 10 كوس) scoring a seventh round knockout of Mexico’s Giovanni Delgado (16-6, 9 كوس) in their super bantamweight clash.

فيغيروا, the brother of former champion Omar, continued to show the aggressive style that has defined his early career as he threw an astonishing 178 punches in the third round. That number was good for the second most ever thrown in a single round by a fighter in a super bantamweight bout, وفقًا لـ CompuBox.

The 21-year-old Figueroa continued to put the pressure on, battering Delgado until referee Gregorio Alvarez halted the fight at 1:55من الجولة السابعة.
