LAS VEGAS (Dezembro 21, 2017) – campeão do mundo Dois divisão Danny “Rápido” Garcia returns to the ring to take on former world champion Brandon “Bam Bam” Rios in a welterweight showdown on Sábado, Fevereiro 17 viver ALTURA DE COMEÇAR at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas and presented by Premier Boxe dos Campeões.
Na co-metragem, mais jovem campeão mundial de boxe David “O Red Flag” Benavidez will defend his Super Middleweight World Championship for the first time against Ronald Gavril in a rematch of their thrilling September 2017 bout in which Benavidez won the vacant title by split decision.
The card is promoted by Mayweather Promotions and TGB Promotions in association with DSG Promotions. The Benavidez-Gavril rematch is co-promoted by Sampson Boxing. Tickets for the live event go on sale Sábado, Dezembro. 23 em 10 a.m. PST and will be available at AXS.com.
I’m excited just to get back in the ring,” disse García, 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 até março 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 sua última 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.
Em sua última luta, 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.
Agora, 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.
Como 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., tem 34 vitórias, 25 por nocaute. 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 Junho 11. A victory over Garcia, a top-10 welterweight in his own right, would immediately change the course of Rioscareer 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 BamRios 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,” disse Stephen Espinoza, Vice-Presidente Executivo e Gerente Geral da Showtime Sports®. “Following the January 20th 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,” disse 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. Além, we are working on a crowd-pleasing undercard now. Everyone on this card will need to bring their ‘A gameto Las Vegas in order to be victorious on Fevereiro 17.”
Danny Garcia is one of the most battle-tested, skillful boxers in the sport. What he did in running through the 140-pound division before moving up to welterweight is simply amazing,” disse Tom Brown, Presidente da TGB Promoções. “‘Bam BamRios is a throwback warrior. He never met a fight that he backed down from. 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 Setembro 8. The bout featured multiple swings of momentum, thrilling exchanges and a wild 12th redondo. 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 elseThe only thing I can do is to ask for a rematch.
Em Fevereiro 17, Gavril will get it.
No excuses this time,” disse Sampson Lewkowicz de Sampson Boxe. “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. Sem desculpas. No doubt.
Lutando fora de 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 12th with less than a minute left in the fight. Em última análise, it wasn’t enough as Gavril lost on two of the three judges’ scorecards.
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. Eu pensei que era perto, 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.

This fight will get me exactly where I need to be, closer to a world title shot.
Williams (23-1-1, 15 KOs), one of the top young contenders in the 154-pound division, is working his way back into title contention by taking on a tough former world champion in Smith.

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

The Card Will Be Rescheduled for A Future Date
LAS VEGAS (Fevereiro 28, 2017) – The featherweight championship match between Gary Russell Jr. and Oscar Escandon, programado para Sábado, Março 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 com 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.
It’s definitely irritating,” Russell said. “But injuries happen especially when you have somebody pushing their body to the limit for a fight that is potentially life changing. It’s disappointing. It might not work out for him because I have a little more time to get ready.
We’re working with the venue and the network to find the earliest date that we can reschedule the show,” disse Tom Brown de TGB Promoções. “I feel terrible for the fighters who have been training so hard and now have to wait. Gary is really disappointed, but he understands that injuries are all a part of the sport. But Gary will be ready to go on the rescheduled date.
A new date for the fight will be announced shortly.

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

LAS VEGAS (Janeiro 31, 2017) – The World Boxing Association (WBA) has notified WBA cruiserweight world champion Shumenov Beibu and WBA Interim cruiserweight title-holder yunier Dorticós, as well as their representatives, that Caribe Promotions has lost its rights to promote the WBA mandated Shumenov vs. Dorticos title fight.
Dorticós’ promotor, 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 dentro de 90 dias. 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 de maio 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 February 11them 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, respectivamente, 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 Maio 21, quando ele parou 15-1-1 Júnior Wright no 10th 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” campeão, Lebedev, dentro de 90 dias, contudo, 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 Dorticosown 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.

Enquanto trabalhava em Las Vegas com o treinador Ruben Guerrero, Escandón deu seus pensamentos sobre o acampamento de treinamento, Gary Russell Jr. combate, e sua busca para se tornar um campeão do mundo.
Em seu confronto com Gary Russell Jr..:
“Gary Russell Jr.. is a very skilled fighter but he doesn’t know what it’s like to be in a rugged fight. Everyone knows I come to fight and Russell is going to find out firsthand what it’s like to be in a war. É melhor ele estar pronto para assumir alguns pedaços.”
No treinamento em Las Vegas:
Running in the high elevation here in Las Vegas has been great for my stamina. I’ve adjusted to the atmosphere and my body feels extremely strong. I’ve gotten some great sparring with a lot of different looks, caras que se movem como Russell. Eu não poderia estar mais preparado, então eu vou ser para essa luta.”
Sobre trabalhar com Ruben Guerrero:
Ruben and I have been working great together. His knowledge of fighting southpaws is excellent and we have a great game plan going into this fight. Everyone can expect to see me throw a lot of punches.
Em sua busca para se tornar um campeão do mundo:
Becoming a world champion is something I’ve wanted my whole life. I’ve been close a couple of times. In those fights I made the mistake of leaving the decision in the judges’ mãos. Desta vez, Eu vou para o nocaute, para me assegurar a vitória.”

Aqui está o que Russell Jr., Gary Russell Sr. (Pai e treinador de Gary) e Gary Russell Antonio(Irmão mais novo de Gary e invicto perspectiva de boxe) tinha a dizer na terça-feira:

GARY RUSSELL JR.:
“Campo de treinamento está indo muito bem, estamos no rumo certo. Houve um menor soluçar no acampamento, porque eu deveria lutar em outubro. 24. Comecei a brigar, but once the fight got pushed back to Novembro 14 I cut the sparring off. Eu não queria pico muito cedo.
“Hoje (Terça-feira) foi o meu primeiro dia de volta de brigar novamente. Eu estou trabalhando em meu calendário, ring generalship and lateral movement. We’re right on course.
“Oscar Escandon é forte e durável. Ele vem para a frente. Se seu canto era inteligente eles iriam tentar tirar a minha velocidade da mão, que será um grande fator na luta. Ele vai precisar para fechar a distância, sufocar meus socos assim que a velocidade não é um fator.
“Estamos trabalhando para tornar a luta tão confortável no lado de fora como eu estou lutando no interior.
“Um monte de lutadores são unidimensionais. Estamos tentando fazer esse brilho de diamantes de todos os lados.
“Eu sei que vou ser vitorioso, sem dúvida,. Qualquer um que entrar no ringue com estes pequenos, 8-ounce gloves always has a possibility of creating an upset whether he’s a big puncher or not. Leva apenas um tiro. It’s the fightersjob to take away that opportunity.
“Estou animado para lutar, período. I don’t even think about this fight being a title defense. É preciso um certo tipo de força mental e força psicológica para entrar no ringue e executar. Qualquer um que entra no ringue contra mim é um campeão em meus olhos.
It’s been about seven months since I fought. I’m always anxious to get back in the ring.
“Se eu passar Escandon Eu adoraria lutar 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, mesmo que ele perdeu, would be a great fight. These are the type of guys that we’d like to fight.
“Tendo a minha família comigo durante o acampamento de treinamento significa tudo para mim. É onde eu recebo a minha energia a partir de. Um monte de caras sentem que têm de fugir para o campo de treinamento, mas eu não tenho que sair de casa. Minha família é a força motriz por trás do meu campo de treinamento e onde eu encontre meu poder e motivação. No final do dia, Eu caixa para a minha família.
“Se meu irmão acaba lutando no meu eliminatória seria muito legal para mim. Vai ser engraçado, porque se ele não competir, você definitivamente vai ver-me trabalhar seu canto antes da minha luta pelo título.”
GARY RUSSELL SR.:
“Eu sei que é uma luta pelo campeonato, mas nós entramos em cada luta como se fosse uma luta pelo título. Não sabemos muitas coisas sobre o seu adversário, nós apenas treinar como campeões.
“Tenho seis filhos, todos eles são lutadores. Eles têm todos os atributos diferentes como as pessoas que traduzem de forma diferente em que eles são como pessoas e no anel.
“Antonio Russell é 4-0, ele trabalhou duro toda a sua vida. Fora do ginásio, ele pode corrigir alguma coisa. Antoine, que só se classificou para as Olimpíadas, é brilhante. Estou muito orgulhoso dele porque ele acabou de se formar o orador oficial de sua turma, com o mais alto GPA de ninguém no condado de Prince George. Então você tem Gary, que é tão duro de trabalho, ele é o futuro patriarca da família. Ele tem um espírito velho.
“Estou orgulhoso de todos os meus filhos e eu estou orgulhoso de que somos uma forte unidade familiar. Nós aprendemos muito com a perda de Gary para Vasyl Lomachenko. Nós temos um lema no ginásio que pendura de um banner, ele diz que "O sucesso é a Ultimate Revenge’ e temos vivido por que, desde a perda. Aprendemos uma importante lição que luta e se mudaram.
“O boxe é uma coisa passageira, você não fazê-lo para sempre. Estamos fazendo nossa própria coisa. Eu não estou preocupado com o que as outras pessoas têm feito.
“Como um pai, seu instinto paternal nos chutes porque neste esporte, tudo pode acontecer. Você não quer ver seu filho acabar hurt. Então, nós treinamos para qualquer circunstância. Devido a que o instinto, Eu fui rigoroso e duro com os meus filhos, a fim de tentar mantê-los seguros.”
GARY ANTONIO RUSSELL (Lutando na Sexta-feira, Outubro. 30 não televisionada Premier Boxe Campeões na eliminatória Bounce TV e potencialmente o Novembro 14 eliminatória.):
“Com a nossa forma de treinar e luta, nossa defesa configura nosso ataque e nosso ataque configura nossa defesa.
“Meu trabalho é ir lá e vencer as lutas. Eu sei que meu adversário é um cara alto, mas também sei que ele não vai ganhar. Ele não tem o poder de perfuração ou anel de generalato que eu tenho.
“Depois que eu ganhar, Eu sou para a próxima. Estou treinado para lutar de forma consistente. Espero que eu pegar esse cara para fora cedo, se ele vem e apresenta-se. Então eu adoraria lutar no card do meu irmão mais velho de duas semanas depois.”
