In celebration of the best rivalries on SHOWTIME, see below for a special column from SHOWTIME Sports expert analyst and boxing historian סטיוו פאַרהאָאָד.
אגדות
By Steve Farhood
Boxing without legends would be like religion without saints.
There’s no formula for a fighter to advance from star to superstar to legend. The process depends on timing, circumstance, and sometimes as little as a point or two on the judges’ קאַרדס.
And oh, יאָ: It helps if a guy can really fight.
As we celebrate 30 years of boxing on SHOWTIME, we’re focusing on a different theme each month. Throughout March, the theme will be Legends.
אין די 130 years from John L. Sullivan to Floyd Mayweather, boxing has given us what other sports can’t provide. Consider:
- The Associated Press voted Luis Firpo’s knockdown of Jack Dempsey as the greatest sports moment of the first half of the 20th Century.
- The Frazier-Ali “Fight Of The Century” in 1971 was easily the most anticipated sporting event in history.
- Last year’s Mayweather-Pacquiao fight generated more than half-a-billion dollars — in one night!
Legends are made by big moments … and how they respond to those moments.
On SHOWTIME, we’ve featured three decades worth of legends. Here’s a look at those who will share the spotlight in March.
MARVIN HAGLER: Since Vince Lombardi didn’t exactly say, “Timing isn’t everything, it’s the only thing,” Hagler should’ve said it.
Hagler was a great fighter long before he was a superstar, but it wasn’t until he fought Roberto Duran, Thomas Hearns, and Sugar Ray Leonard (three of Hagler’s last six bouts) that Marvin became Marvelous.
Hagler’s one appearance on SHOWTIME, which happened to be the first bout televised on the network (מאַרץ 1986), was the final win of his career. Undefeated over 10 יאָרן, Hagler had established himself as one of the greatest middleweights in history. And while it could be argued in hindsight that at age 31, the ultimate blue-collar fighter was slightly past his prime, much of what made Hagler special was on display during his savage defense against his unbeaten and ferocious challenger, John Mugabi.
Almost three decades after his retirement, Hagler remains the middleweight today’s 160-pounders are measured against.
צוקער שטראַל לעאָנאַרד: If Hagler bloomed late, Leonard was a superstar before he threw a single punch as a professional.
Back in the mid-‘70s, that’s what a magnetic smile, an Olympic gold medal, and repeated exposure on prime time television could do for a young fighter.
It’s ironic that Leonard was initially viewed by some as a coddled creation of the media. אין פאַקט, he was as tough as any fighter of the star-studded early-‘80s. Better yet, he remains the best fighter I’ve covered in 38 years on the boxing beat.
Leonard’s appearance on SHOWTIME was the penultimate bout of his career. In electing to end yet another lengthy layoff, שוגער Ray, 34, chose outstanding 23-year-old super welterweight titlist Terry Norris as his opponent. Leonard dropped from 160 צו 154 pounds and fought at Madison Square Garden for the first time.
The bout served as a reminder that at least in a pre-Bernard Hopkins world, boxing was very much a young man’s game.
FELIX TRINIDAD: There are only three Hispanic fighters who became superstars in the USA without speaking English. The first was Panama’s Roberto Duran. The second was Mexico’s Julio Cesar Chavez.
The third was Puerto Rico’s Trinidad.
Trinidad’s motto might as well have been, “If you can’t be from America, then beat America.”
A classic puncher with a boy scout’s smile and a fan-friendly personality, Trinidad made his name by defeating four U.S. אָלימפּיאַנס, פּערנעלל Whitaker, אָסקאַר די לאַ הויאַ (albeit by a terrible decision), David Reid, and Fernando Vargas.
דערצו, Whitaker, די לאַ הויאַ, and Reid had all been gold medalists.
The fight we’ll feature on מאַרץ 17 on SHO EXTREME, Trinidad vs. Reid, was Trinidad’s 14th and final appearance on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING and SHOWTIME pay-per-view.
From his welterweight title-winning kayo of Maurice Blocker in 1993 through his defense against Mahenge Zulu in 1998, 13 of Trinidad’s 14 bouts were aired on SHOWTIME. Twelve of those fights were knockout wins.
Where Trinidad ranks with Wilfredo Gomez, מיגועל קאָטטאָ, קאַרלאָס אָרטיז, Wilfred Benitez, and the rest of the legends from Puerto Rico is debatable. What is inarguable is that “Tito” generated as much excitement as any fighter of his era.
RICARDO LOPEZ: What’s smaller: the chance that a strawweight (105 פונט) becomes an American television star or the fighter himself?
There’s never been an American world champion at strawweight (or minimumweight). We just don’t grow fighters that size. אין פאַקט, until the emergence of Mexico’s Lopez in the early-’90s, most American boxing fans couldn’t have identified a single strawweight if armed with a map of the world and a set of WBC ratings.
Lopez was so complete, so dominant, so technically perfect, that from 1994 to ’99, he was a staple of SHOWTIME’s boxing programming. He fought 13 consecutive bouts on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING or SHOWTIME Pay-Per-View, and the first 11 of those contests were defenses of the strawweight title.
And if you think the little guys can’t punch, געזונט, there were some one-punch kayos sprinkled in.
לאָפּעז, who retired with a mark of 51-0-1, is universally acknowledged as an all-time great. Too bad he never fought America’s Michael Carbajal at light flyweight. Had he won that bout, he’d likely be acknowledged as one of the two or three greatest Mexican fighters ever.
Which is saying a lot for a fighter who never faced an opponent recognized by the American viewing public.

טוסאַן, אַריז. (Jan. 22, 2016) – Undefeated middleweight prospect Rob Brant scored the most impressive victory of his career with a fourth-round knockout of Decarlo Perez in the main event of שאָבאָקס: די ניו גענעראַטיאָן, לעבן אויף שאָוטיים אויף פרייטאג from Casino Del Sol in Tucson, אַריז. ווידעא הויכפּונקט: http://s.sho.com/1QqySWm
Known more for his boxing prowess, בראַנט (19-0, 12 קאָס) displayed impressive power. After a big first round, in which he threw 97 punches and more of the same in the second, Brant floored Perez with a straight-right shot midway through the third.
The Minnesota native kept on the gas in the fourth and landed another straight right that sent Perez falling straight back partially through the ropes. פּערעז (15-4-1, 5 קאָס) awkwardly landed back into the ring and referee Rocky Burke instantly ended the fight at :39.
“The game plan was to be aggressive,” Brant said. “We knew we wanted to show him our power early and make him respect us right away. When I caught him with the right on the temple in the third I knew we had him. And then when I connected in the fourth it was lights out, game over. I just want to get back in the ring as soon as possible and continue making progress.”
פּערעז, who entered the fight coming off an impressive win over previously undefeated Juan Ubaldo Cabrera last August on שאָבאָקס, said he just got caught with a good shot.
“I just got caught,” Perez said. That’s all that happened. I didn’t see the shot coming and he was speedier than I thought. He’s fast and he got me with something I wasn’t ready for.”
SHOWTIME analyst Steve Farhood was surprised by Brant’s performance.
“Brant showed a dimension we hadn’t seen before,” Farhood said. “He’s thinking man’s fighter who fought an angry fight. און, as result of that, you have to put him near the very top of the list of middleweight prospects.”
Undefeated heavyweight prospect Jarrell “Big Baby” Miller floored Donovan Dennis twice in a thoroughly dominating seventh round TKO (2:31) אין די שאָבאָקס גלויבנס-שטריך.
מילנער (16-0-1, 14 קאָס), who went past the sixth round for the first time in his career, לאַנדיד 52 פּראָצענט פון זיין מאַכט שאַץ. The Brooklyn native scored two knockdowns in the first round – the first with a devastating looping right, the second with a straight to the chest – and had Dennis nearly out on his feet in what looked like a certain first-round finish.
The southpaw Dennis (14-4, 11 קאָס) somehow survived the round and actually pushed Miller into uncharted waters. Dennis had some moments where he out boxed his opponent, but Miller’s power and size – a 56 pound weight advantage – was the deciding difference. Dennis was breathing through his mouth and gasping for air when referee Tony Zaino wisely halted the contest as “Big Baby” teed-off on his defenseless opponent.
“I had him out in the first round, but I threw my shoulder out throwing a left hook,” Miller said. “I was looking for the knockout so bad he started catching me with some shots. So then I decided to box a little bit and that’s what I did until the knockout came.
“I’m glad it went seven rounds. It taught me to go to Plan B. I can box beautifully when I want and I showed some of that הייַנט בייַ נאַכט. It was good experience. My power was there; my wind was good. I was breathing well and seeing the shots.”
נאָך דעם קאַמף, Miller called out the two American heavyweight world champions.
“Charles Martin, I’m coming for you. דעאָנטייַ ווילדער, I’m coming for your Alabama BBQ.”
In the locker room after the bout, Dennis admitted that he was surprised by Miller’s boxing ability: “He’s a better boxer than I thought he would be. That surprised me.”
אין דער עפענונג באַוט פון די טעלאַקאַסט, undefeated welterweight prospect Bakhtiyar Eyubov impressed with a dominating demolition of the durable Jared Robinson with a third round TKO (:56).
יייובאָוו (10-0, 10 קאָס), who scored three knockdowns in three rounds, recorded his 10טה knockout in his 10טה career professional fight. The hard-throwing Eyubov landed a staggering 57 percent of his power shots while throwing only three jabs in the fight. The Kazakhstan native scored two knockdowns in the first and one in the third over the veteran Robinson (17-3-1, 17 קאָס), who was only the second opponent to push Eyubov into the third round.
“Was I surprised at how easy it was? צי ניט, I can’t believe he made it to round three,” Eyubov said. “The ref should have stopped it earlier. I am much smarter than I was before. I expect more of myself now. It was another step forward and I promise everyone all my fights will be like that. I am like (Arturo) Gatti.
“My trainers are teaching me to move my head, and I’m confident that no one can hurt me. I will never ever be knocked down.”
יייובאָוו, who entered the ring with a “papakha,” explained his cultural dance following the knockout win.
“The dance and the hat are traditional Kazakhstan traditions,” Eyobov said. “I was honoring my countrymen with that dance. And the hat is a symbol of my honor. No one can take that hat from me. "

Boxing historian and expert ring analyst סטיוו פאַרהאָאָד has called every fight on שאָבאָקס since it premiered in 2001. He anticipates another year of excellent, competitive matchups in 2016.
“In 2015, we had eight fighters who appeared on שאָבאָקס און געגאנגען אויף צו געווינען וועלט טיטלען. That means the average number of shows in which you’ll see a future world champion is one out of four,"האט פאַרהאָאָד.
“We saw some fantastic prospects last year, אַרייַנגערעכנט עריקסאַן לובין און רעגיס פּראָגראַיס and fresh faces like דזשאַררעטט כערד, ראָב בראַנט—and a fighter who almost seems ready to fight for a title now—סערגיידערעוויאַנטשענקאָ. Given שאָבאָקס’s 15-year history, I’m fully expecting that we will have more of the same in 2016.’’
בראַנט, Perez and Miller will be making their second consecutive appearances on שאָבאָקס. Brant and Miller were victorious last אקטאבער. 23, Perez last אויגוסט. 28. Robinson will also be making his second ShoBox start; the four other boxers will be making their debuts.
“Both Brant and Perez won their most recent appearances on שאָבאָקסand both were impressive,'' פאַרהאָאָד האט. “Brant took a big step up and outpointed לוי רויז in October and Perez pulled off the upset over the previously unbeaten וואַן ובאַלדאָ קאַברעראַ אין אויגוסט. So it makes all the sense in the world to match them against each other. On Jan. 22, we’re going to find out just how hot Rob Brant is.’’
Twenty-six-year-old Brant will be headlining his second consecutiveשאָבאָקס. In his first, he captured a hard-fought 10-round majority decision over Rose. Going 10 ראָונדס פֿאַר די ערשטער מאָל, Brant triumphed in an entertaining tight fight.
איידער אויסגעדרייט פּראָ אין נאוועמבער 2010, Brant was a 2010 לאַנדיש גאָלדען גלאָוועס טשאַמפּיאָן בייַ 178 מנים און אַ מיטגליד פון די ו.ס. national boxing team pro. He currently trains in Dallas alongside top prospect עראַל ספּענסע דזשוניער.
“I’m really excited about this fight and I’ve been training hard for several weeks now,’’ Brant said. “I’ve got a very serious opponent in front of me. He rates about a 7.7 at everything, which doesn’t leave a whole lot of weaknesses. I’ve got to go back to pure boxing for this one. I have to be better in every department. It’s my second time headlining שאָבאָקס and I plan on improving from the first time, so viewers can chart my progress. This is my time to show my growth.’’
פּערעז, who hails from a fighting family, has won four straight and nine of his last 10. He scored a surprising, upset, a 10-round unanimous decision over Cabrera (23-0 געגאנגען אין) in his last outing. פּערעז, וואס האט דעם קאַמף אויף אַ וואָך ס באַמערקן, outpointed the two-time Dominican Republic Olympian by the scores of 98-91 צוויי מאָל און 97-92.
“I’m so excited I’m the main event on national television,’’ Perez said. “I don’t know a lot about my opponent but I’m well prepared, both mentally and physically. I plan on giving the fans an exciting night.
“Camp is going very well. My management team has brought in top sparring with all undefeated boxers, one being דזשוליאַן ווילליאַמס. I’m excited that my trainer is allowing me to fight the majority, if not all of this fight, in the southpaw stance. I’m really a southpaw, but I have fought right-handed most of my career.”
Perez’ last loss came on a split eight-round decision to world title challenger Wilky Campfort אין יאנואר 2014. אַרויס די רינג, Perez is a pharmacy technician at an Atlantic City hospital.
מילנער, a former New York Golden Gloves finalist who turned pro in July 2009, is a confident, power-punching heavyweight who comes to knock you out. He won his ShoBox debut, סטאָפּפּינג אַכראָר מוראַלימאָוו with a devastating right hand to the chin at 1:03 אין די דריט קייַלעכיק.
“I feel like I should have been here two years ago,’’ Miller said. “I’m not coming to make friends. I’m here to annihilate and destroy the whole heavyweight division. On Jan. 22, I’m going to put Donovan Dennis to sleep. I’m not being heard right now, so I have to make myself known. After this fight and what I do to Dennis, things will really, really start to pick up. I’m ready to destroy.’’
Besides being a hard hitter, Miller has good overall skills and movement for a big man whose weight fluctuates from fight to fight. He’s won his last four by knockout, all inside three rounds.
Known for an aggressive style, Miller is now fully focused on a fistic career, but he hails from an MMA and kickboxing background. פֿאַר אַ ביסל יאָרן, ער קאַמפּיטיד אין ק -1, כיסטאָריקלי די וועלט 'ס פּרעמיער קיקקבאָקסינג אָרגאַניזאַציע, און צוויי מאָל געהאַלטן די לעדזשאַנדערי Mirko “קראָ קאָפּ” Filipović.
“There seems to be a new energy and enthusiasm on the American heavyweight scene,'' פאַרהאָאָד האט. “Part of that is explained by the fall of a dominant champion in וולאַדימיר קליצטשקאָ and part of it is explained by the emergence of דעאָנטייַ ווילדער, and even טראַוויס קאַופפמאַן. So for a young heavyweight like Jarrell Miller, the time seems to be ideal to secure TV exposure and make a name for himself.’’
דעניס, 28, was born and raised in Davenport, Iowa. Before turning pro in June 2010, he was a top-level amateur: 11-time Iowa State Champion, 2011 National Golden Gloves runner-up in and 2012 די. ז. Olympic Games Trials contestant.
The 6-foot-4 Dennis possesses good skills, movement and punching power to go with his strong amateur background. His weakness is durability; he’s been knocked out in all of his losses.
“I’m ready to fight,’’ Dennis said. “I’ve been training really hard and I am looking forward to the fight. I just want to get this win and move on as I will have a big year in 2016.’’
טיילן טאָר, considered one of the top young talents in the Philippines, will be fighting outside of Asia for the first time. A big puncher and winner of seven straight by knockout, די 5-פֿיס-8, 21-year-old is coming off athird-round TKO over Ricard Betos לעצט נאוועמבער. 14.
“It’s every boxer’s dream to fight on big cards in United States. This is the next step in my pathway to becoming world champion,’’ Dela Torre said. “I can’t wait. This is an opportunity I will take advantage of and show everyone I’m ready to step up. I let my team concentrate on my opponents and pass me instructions. I just know I’ll be ready and able to stop any opponent.’’
Before turning professional at 17, Dela Torre was a top member on the Philippine National Amateur Boxing Team. As a pro, he has made a “name” for himself after an impressive victory over Jason Butar-Butar on the undercard of a מאַני פּאַקקוויאַאָ-headlined fight in November 2013.
Guzman, a 5-foot-8½-inch 20-year-old, will be making his U.S. debut and initial start outside of Mexico since turning pro at 16 אין יולי 2011. In Dela Torre, Guzman will be taking a significant step up in class. ער סקאָרד אַ דריט-קייַלעכיק טקאָ איבער Pedro Lopez on his last start in אקטאבער. 9.
“I’m feeling very strong and ready for the challenge of this fight,’’ Guzman said. “Fighting on SHOWTIME is a huge opportunity for me. I hear my opponent is a good fighter, but I am ready for anything he can throw. Everybody is going to be talking about me after this fight.”
יייובאָוו, 29, who could be on the fast track to stardom, is regarded by many to be the second-hardest Kazakh hitter in boxing, ranked only behind געננאַדי גאָלאָווקין. Since his days as an amateur when he won more than 150 פייץ, a vast majority by knockout, Eyubov has lived up to his reputation as a fearsome banger who looks to remove the judges from the equation.
He’s overwhelmed his first nine opponents as a pro, winning six by knockout in the first round and two by knockout in the second. The furthest he’s gone in a fight came in his second start when he scored a third-round TKO (2:57) איבער Jhaquis Davis. In his last outing on אקטאבער. 29, ער סקאָרד אַ 1:27, ערשטער-קייַלעכיק טקאָ איבער Antonio Chaves Fernandes אין ברוקלין.
ראָבינסאָן, a pro since August 2009, fights out of Charlotte, נ.ק. A veteran of several scheduled 10-round fights, he’s undeniably the most experienced boxer Eyubov’s ever faced. A natural 140-pounder,Robinson won his initial 14 starts before losing on a fourth-round TKO to then-unbeaten אַמיר איך אויף שאָבאָקס in a bout he took on short notice on Feb. 21, 2014.
צוויי סטאַרץ צוריק, Robinson fought to a disputed eight-round split draw against then-unbeaten Haskell Rhodes (23-0 געגאנגען אין) אויף יוני 21, 2015. An excellent boxer with good skills and movement, the 5-foot-9-inch Robinson, 33, is coming off a one-sided 10-round decision overChristian Dominguez לעצט זיבן. 26. אַרויס די רינג, Robinson is amassage therapist.
