“I’m excited just to get back in the ring,” Said Garcia, who was reigning world champion for the better part of six years dating back to his win over Hall of Famer Erik Morales in 2012 trí Márta 2017. “I needed the time off to recuperate and let my body heal.”
Garcia (33-1, 19 Kos) was a unified world champion at super lightweight and welterweight and has fought and defeated many of the most formidable opponents in both divisions spanning two generations-Morales, Zab Judah, Kendall Holt, Amir Khan, Lucas Matthysse, Paulie Malignaggi and Lamont Peterson among them. Four of his five opponents in the welterweight division were world champions and 10 de chuid caite 14 opponents were world champions or former world champions.
“I was the reigning champion for six years, so I needed the rest,” continued the 29-year old Philadelphia fighter. “I’m ready to kick off the year in style and take over the welterweight division.”
Ina troid seo caite, a welterweight clash of world title holders, Garcia lost via split decision to now unified 147-pound world champion Keith Thurman in a hard-fought, exciting fight that aired live on CBS. The SHOWTIME BOXING on CBS broadcast drew the biggest boxing audience of the year, more than five million viewers which remains the largest audience to witness a primetime boxing broadcast since 1998.
Anois, Garcia looks to re-establish his once dominant position at welterweight, a division that boasts more top-10 pound-for-pound fighters in the sport than any other weight class; fighters including world champions Errol Spence Jr., Thurman, Shawn Porter, Kell Brook, Lamont Peterson and more.
“What’s interesting in this fight with Brandon Rios is our styles. We both like to come forward. This kind of matchup will bring out the best in both of us. I’m excited to be back in Las Vegas. I’ve had some of my best performances and some of my biggest fights there. I beat Lucas Matthysse and Amir Khan in Vegas. You fight in Las Vegas, you’re a superstar,” added Garcia.
Cosúil Garcia, Rios has fought many of the top welterweights of this era including world champions Timothy Bradley and Manny Pacquiao. The hard-nosed slugger from Oxnard, Calif., Tá 34 Bhuaigh, 25 de réir knockout. The 31-year-old Rios always comes prepared to battle. With an aggressive style and granite chin, he is one of the most entertaining boxers in the sport. In his last fight he scored a TKO victory over Aaron Herrera on Meitheamh 11. A victory over Garcia, a top-10 welterweight in his own right, would immediately change the course of Rios’ career and demand that he be placed among the top-ranked in the division.
“I’m excited to prove my critics wrong again,” said Rios. “I’m bring a ‘Bam Bam’ Rios slugfest to my fans. Danny is a great fighter, but I will beat him just like I have beat others in the past. I am focused and will make this a classic Mexican-Puerto Rican battle!”
“SHOWTIME is poised to start the year with two crucial welterweight main event matchups,” Dúirt Stephen Espinoza, Executive Vice President and General Manager of SHOWTIME Sports®. “Following the January 20ú event pitting Errol Spence Jr. vs. Lamont Peterson, Garcia vs. Rios features two of the most battle-tested and ferocious 147-pound fighters in the world. Add in the Benavidez vs. Gavril II co-feature, a fight that is guaranteed to deliver dramatic action, and we are picking up right where we left off in 2017 delivering the most compelling and important matchups in boxing’s deepest divisions.”
“We’re looking forward to the action at Mandalay Bay Events Center in February,” Said Leonard Ellerbe, CEO Mayweather Promotions. “Both Garcia and Rios are seasoned fighters that have faced the toughest competition in the welterweight division and they are both very hungry for a big win. The co-feature rematch between the youngest reigning world champion David Benavidez and challenger Ronald Gavril we already know will be thrilling. All four of these men have proven that they’ll put it all on the line in the boxing ring to leave no doubt about who the better man is. Chomh maith leis sin, we are working on a crowd-pleasing undercard now. Beidh ag gach duine ar an gcárta mór a thabhairt ar a gcuid 'Cluiche’ to Las Vegas in order to be victorious on Feabhra 17.”
“Tá Danny Garcia ar cheann de na chuid is mó cath de réir tástála, dhornálaithe sa tír sa spórt. Cad a rinne sé i rith tríd an rannán 140-punt sular bhog go dtí welterweight Is iontach simplí,” Dúirt Tom Brown, Uachtarán na Tionscnaimh TGB. “"BAM BAM’ Is Rios a chur ar ghaiscíoch throwback. Riamh Bhuail sé ag troid a bhfuil tacaíocht aige síos ó. Putting Garcia and Rios into the ring against each other promises nothing but fireworks in a match that should provide maximum entertainment for fans. It’s the kind of fight that belongs in Las Vegas, a classic battle that harkens to welterweight wars of the past. The first match between Benavidez and Gavril left enough room for doubt that a rematch should settle any remaining questions. I’d expect both boxers to come in with something to prove and that translates into a fan-friendly match.”
The 21-year-old Benavidez (19-0, 17 Kos) became the youngest reigning world champion in boxing and the youngest 168-pound champion in history at 20-years, nine months old when he scored a split decision against Gavril to win the super middleweight title on Meán Fómhair 8. The bout featured multiple swings of momentum, thrilling exchanges and a wild 12ú bhabhta. Benavidez and Gavril pushed each other to deliver the best performance of their respective careers thus far.
“I feel I won the fight,” said Gavril immediately after the decision. “I dominated the pace. I can’t say anything else… The only thing I can do is to ask for a rematch.”
Ar Feabhra 17, Gavril will get it.
“No excuses this time,” Dúirt Sampson Lewkowicz de Sampson Dornálaíochta. “The minute Benavidez finished the fight I requested the rematch-on behalf of the winner-for the sole reason that he needed to win by emphatically and not by split decision. I wanted the public to be able to have the rematch so that everyone will know who the best is. I expect this time Gavril will say that he’s really been beaten. As the youngest reigning champion in the sport today, I want no doubt that Benavidez is the better man. It was a great fight the first time and this time we’ll see who the best truly is. Uimh excuses. No doubt.”
Fighting out of Phoenix, Ariz., Benavidez had scored 10 straight knockouts leading up to the match against Gavril. His eight-round KO victory over Rogelio Medina put him position for the vacant title.
“This is a fight that my father, my team and I decided to take again to show everybody that I’m really the champion and there’s more to me than just being the youngest world champion,” Benavidez said. “I feel like I’m the better fighter and I’m going to definitely show it this time. I learned from that first fight that he puts on a lot of pressure. He likes to throw at the same time that I’m throwing. There are a couple different approaches to take against that. It’s going to be a great night of fights. Danny Garcia and ‘Bam Bam’ Rios, these are two fighters I look up to in the sport and it’s an honor to fight in their undercard. My training has been going well. We decided to bring in a strength and conditioning coach and I feel really strong. I believe I’ll be very prepared.”
Gavril (18-2, 14 Kos) rose rapidly through the ranks by scoring seven straight victories including four by knockout since 2015. The 31-year-old Gavril was born in Bacau, Romania and now lives and fights out of Las Vegas. He fought a brilliant match against Benavidez, seizing control in the middle rounds and even dropping the young contender in the 12ú with less than a minute left in the fight. I ndeireadh na dála, it wasn’t enough as Gavril lost on two of the three judges’ scórchártaí.
“I can’t wait to get into the ring again and take that belt,” said Gavril. “I learned his game plan quickly during the first fight, I blocked it well then, and I plan to do the same again. He has fast hands and power, I won’t take that from him, but I am prepared for whatever plan he comes in the ring with. I know I have what it takes to win this time. Preparing for this fight the second time around has been different, training has been more intense, and my team is preparing me to take him out once and for all. I can’t let him win. Some people said I won back in September, and were surprised by my performance. I thought it was close, and I thought the knock down gave me the advantage to win. All I can do is be ready. I don’t think either of us will upset the fans on fight night. I want to thank Floyd Mayweather and Leonard for another opportunity against Benavidez. He’s a great fighter and tough competitor and this will certainly be a great fight.”

Gary Russell, Jr.-Oscar Escandon Featherweight Title Match Postponed After Escandon Suffers Injury in Training

Leave a comment
The Card Will Be Rescheduled for A Future Date
LAS VEGAS (Feabhra 28, 2017) – The featherweight championship match between Gary Russell Jr. and Oscar Escandon, sceidealta le haghaidh Dé Sathairn, Márta 11 at the MGM National Harbor in Maryland, has been postponed after Escandon was injured in training, according to Escandon’s promoter Sampson Lewkowicz.
“Oscar suffered an injury to his back in training and he’ll be ready to go in April,” Lewkowicz said. “He’s very sorry for the delay in the fight, but these things happen in boxing. He’s really looking forward to facing Gary Russell, Jr, but he wants to be completely healthy when they do meet.”
Escandon, a 32-year-old Colombian with a record of 25-2 le 17 Kos, is the mandatory challenger for Russell’s featherweight championship. Jermell Charlo defending his 154-pound title against Charles Hatley will be the co-feature on the rescheduled card.

Caribe Promotions loses rights to Shumenov-Dorticos WBA cruiserweight title fight; TGB Promotions awarded rights

Leave a comment
LAS VEGAS (Eanáir 31, 2017) – The World Boxing Association (WBA) has notified WBA cruiserweight world champion Shumenov Beibu and WBA Interim cruiserweight title-holder yunier Dorticos, as well as their representatives, that Caribe Promotions has lost its rights to promote the WBA mandated Shumenov vs. Dorticos title fight.
Dorticós’ tionscnóir, Caribe Promotions, originally won the Shumenov vs. Dorticos title fight rights last November with a winning purse bid of $350,001, which required a fight date within 90 laethanta. Although rumored to be held in mid-February in either Miami or Las Vegas, Caribe’s ability and willingness to actually promote the fight came into question in January, 2017. The WBA demanded that Caribe confirm its intentions and even granted Caribe additional time to respond, but Caribe failed to file confirmation of a fight date with the WBA. Because Caribe was unable to confirm its intentions, the WBA had little choice but to award rights to the second-highest purse bidder, Tom Brown’s TGB Promotions.
“I last fought 21 Bealtaine and I have been in the gym since June because I was supposed to fight Lebedev in September,” said a terribly frustrated Shumenov. “But he backed out of the fight with me once again and I have been ready to fight since then. I signed a bout agreement to fight Dorticos on 11 Feabhrai Miami, but Dorticos and his promoter disappeared after I signed. They’re full of it; all they do is talk. I can’t wait to knock him out. I am waiting on my manager to call me right now to tell me the new fight date with TGB.”
Caribe Promotions has been forced to also forfeit its $35,000 purse bid deposit with 10-percent off the top going to the WBA and remainder ($31,500) distributed to Shumenov and Dorticos, faoi ​​seach, on a 75-25 percent basis due to its failure to promote the fight.
Shumenov (17-2, 11 Kos), fighting out of Las Vegas by way of Kazakhstan, fought last Bealtaine 21, nuair a stop sé 15-1-1 Wright Sóisearach sa 10ú round of their Las Vegas fight for the vacant WBA World cruiserweight title. The WBA had ruled that the Shumenov-Wright winner would be the mandatory challenger for its “Super” curadh, Lebedev, within 90 laethanta, áfach, it later allowed unified cruiserweight titlist Lebedev (against Shumenov’s strong objections) to fight his International Boxing Federation (IBF) mandatory defense against challenger Murat Gassiev, effectively mandating an eliminator between Shumenov and Dorticos with that winner to fight the winner of Lebedev-Gassiev. Only days prior to the Lebedev-Gassiev title fight, Lebedev was inexplicably allowed to fight Gassiev without defending his WBA title, as only his IBF belt was on the line. Gassiev (24-0) defeated Lebedev (29-3) by way of a 12-round split decision in Moscow to become the IBF cruiserweight world champion and Lebedev remains the WBA Super cruiserweight world champion, at least for now. The WBA is expected to rule on Shumenov’s objections to Lebedev’s fight against Gassiev, Lebedev’s status and whether Lebedev will remain champion having lost his last fight.
Dorticos has made false claims in the media that Shumenov, who had been waiting for the WBA to rule on his petitions to force Lebedev to fight him without further delay, had been avoiding him. It is ironic now that Dorticos’ own promoter first sought to delay and has now defaulted on the long-awaited confrontation by failing to promote the Shumenov-Dorticos title fight within the WBA deadline.
A former WBA Super light heavyweight world champion, the 33-year-old Shumenov is the first two-division world champion from a Soviet-bloc country.

Seo an méid Russell Jr, Gary Russell Sr. (Athair agus traenálaí Gary) agus Gary Antonio Russell(Deartháir níos óige Gary agus ionchas dornálaíochta undefeated) Bhí a rá ar an Máirt:

GARY RUSSELL JR.:
“Tá campa traenála ag dul go hiontach, tá muid ceart ar ndóigh. Bhí snag saorga sa champa de bharr go raibh mé ceaptha chun troid ar Deireadh Fómhair. 24. Thosaigh mé sparring, but once the fight got pushed back to Samhain 14 I cut the sparring off. Ní raibh mé ag iarraidh a bhuaic ró-luath.
“Sa lá atá inniu (Dé Máirt) Bhí mo chéad lá ar ais arís sparring. Tá mé ag obair ar mo uainiú, ring generalship and lateral movement. We’re right on course.
“Oscar ESCANDON láidir agus durable. Tagann sé díreach ar aghaidh. Má bhí a choirnéal cliste mbeadh siad iarracht a chur amach mo luas lámh a bheidh ina fhachtóir mór sa troid. Beidh ort sé a dhúnadh ar an t-achar, smother mo punches sin nach bhfuil luas ina fhachtóir.
“Táimid ag obair ar a bheith ag troid díreach chomh compordach ar an taobh amuigh mar tá mé ag troid ar an taobh istigh.
“A lán de trodaithe aon-tríthoiseach. Táimid ag iarraidh a dhéanamh go Shine Diamond ar gach taobh.
“Tá a fhios agam go mbeidh mé victorious gan amhras. Duine ar bith go bhfaigheann tú an fáinne leis na beag, 8-ounce gloves always has a possibility of creating an upset whether he’s a big puncher or not. Ní thógann sé ach amháin lámhaigh. It’s the fighters’ job to take away that opportunity.
“Tá mé ar bís chun troid, tréimhse. I don’t even think about this fight being a title defense. Bíonn sé le cineál áirithe de toughness mheabhrach agus neart síceolaíoch a fháil ar an fáinne agus comhlíonfaidh. Tá aon duine a fhaigheann an fáinne i gcoinne dom ina laoch i mo shúile.
“It’s been about seven months since I fought. I’m always anxious to get back in the ring.
“Má fhaigheann mé anuas ESCANDON Ba bhreá liom dul i ngleic Leo Santa Cruz, we fought in the amateurs. But we never underestimate any opponent and we are focused on getting this fight out of the way first. Lee Selby is another guy that we’re looking at. Of course Abner Mares, cé chaill sé, would be a great fight. These are the type of guys that we’d like to fight.
“Tar éis mo theaghlach liom le linn campa traenála Ciallaíonn gach rud a dom. Tá sé nuair a gheobhaidh mé mo fuinnimh ó. A lán de guys bhraitheann cosúil go bhfuil siad a fháil amach ar feadh campa traenála, ach ní dóigh liom go bhfuil baile a fhágáil. Is é mo theaghlach an fórsa tiomána taobh thiar de mo champa traenála agus i gcás a bhfaighidh mé mo chumhacht agus spreagadh. Ag deireadh an lae, Bosca mé do mo theaghlach.
“Má chríochnaíonn mo dheartháir suas ag troid ar mo undercard mbeadh sé an-cool do dom. Beidh sé greannmhar mar má dhéanann sé dul san iomaíocht, feicfidh tú cinnte dom obair a cúinne roimh mo troid teideal.”
GARY RUSSELL SR.:
“Tá a fhios agam tá sé ina troid craobhchomórtais, ach a théann muid isteach i ngach gcomhrac mar tá sé ina troid teideal. Níl a fhios againn go a ton mar gheall ar a chéile comhraic, táimid ag traein díreach cosúil Seaimpíní.
“Tá mé seisear mac, iad ar fad ar trodaithe. Tá siad go léir tréithe éagsúla mar dhaoine a aistriú go difriúil i cé go bhfuil siad mar dhaoine agus an fáinne.
“Is Antonio Russell 4-0, tá sé ag obair go crua ar fad dá shaol. Lasmuigh de na seomra aclaíochta, is féidir leis a rud ar bith a shocrú. Antoine, a cháiligh ach le haghaidh na trialacha Oilimpeacha, Is iontach. Tá mé an-bhródúil as dó mar gheall bhain sé ach valedictorian a rang leis an GPA is airde de dhuine ar bith sa chontae Prince Sheoirse. Ansin tá tú Gary, atá chomh obair go dian, tá sé an patriarch todhchaí an teaghlach. Tá sé an spiorad sean.
“Tá mé bródúil as gach ceann de mo chuid páistí agus tá mé bródúil go bhfuil muid aonad teaghlaigh láidir. D'fhoghlaim muid a lán ó chailliúint Gary chun Vasyl Lomachenko. Ní mór dúinn a mana ag an seomra aclaíochta a hangs as banner, deir sé 'Is é Rath an Revenge deiridh’ agus tá muid ina gcónaí ag shin i leith an chaillteanais. D'fhoghlaim muid ceacht tábhachtach ón troid agus tar éis bogadh ar.
“Is Dornálaíochta rud fleeting, Ní gá duit é a dhéanamh go deo. Táimid ag déanamh ár rud féin. Níl mé buartha faoi cad iad na daoine eile a dhéanamh.
“Mar athair, thosaíonn do instinct paternal sa mar gheall ar an spórt, Is féidir le rud ar bith a tharlóidh. Ní mian leat a fheiceáil do mhac deireadh suas ghortú. Mar sin, traein againn le haghaidh aon imthoisc. Mar gheall ar sin instinct, Bainim go docht agus go dian ar mo mhac chun iarracht a dhéanamh iad a choinneáil slán.”
GARY ANTONIO RUSSELL (Troid ar an Dé hAoine, Deireadh Fómhair. 30 neamh-imreofar Dornálaíochta Seaimpíní Premier ar Preab teilifíse undercard agus d'fhéadfadh an Samhain 14 undercard.):
“Leis an mbealach traein againn agus troid, Leagann ár cosanta suas ár gcion agus leagann ár gcion suas ár cosanta.
“Is é mo phost chun dul i ann agus troideanna bhuachan. Tá a fhios agam go bhfuil mo chéile comhraic Guy ard, ach tá a fhios agam freisin nach bhfuil sé ag dul a bhuachan. Deir sé nach bhfuil an chumhacht punching nó generalship fáinne go bhfuil mé.
“Chomh luath agus bua mé, Tá mé ar aghaidh go dtí an chéad cheann eile. Tá mé ag oilte chun troid go leanúnach. Tá súil agam liom a fháil ar an Guy amach go luath, má thagann sé agus cuireann é féin. Ansin gur mhaith liom grá chun troid ar chárta mo dheartháir níos sine ar dhá sheachtain tar éis.”
