Miami, OK (Desember 11, 2016) – Rising stars and Holden Productions “Four State Franchise” members Ivan “The Beast” Baranchyk and Trey Lippe-Morrison kept their perfect records in tact following impressive victories Saturday, Desember 10 at the Buffalo Run Casino.
Headlining in front of a standing room only crowd in his adopted hometown of Miami, OK, Baranchyk battled game Phoenix native Wilberth Lopez over ten rounds. Lopez, who defeated five previously unbeaten foes, had to deal with the ultra-aggressive style of Baranchyk but scored a flash knockdown in the fourth round. The knockdown, his first suffered as a pro, had little impact on the fight. For the rest of the contest, the IBF #12 ranked Baranchyk overpowered Lopez, who was on the receiving end of many hard shots but finished the bout on his feet.
Skorar voru 98-91 tvisvar og 97-92.

Í sam-aðalkeppni, Lippe-Morrison kept his knockout streak intact with a two round beatdown of veteran Ty Cobb. Living and fighting out of Vinita, OK, Lippe-Morrison focused on attacking Cobb’s midsection, forcing him to lower his guard. Lippe-Morrison quickly changed focus and dropped Cobb in the second round with a left hook to the head. Cobb beat the count but found himself on the floor shortly thereafter courtesy of another hard left hook. The tough Texan made it back to his feet but was in no shape to continue, forcing the stoppage at 2:10.
“I felt good and stuck to the game plan of going to his body,” Lippe-Morrison said after his victory. “By going to the body early, we knew we’d find an opening up top and that’s exactly what happened.”
Lippe-Morrison is now 13-0 with all of his victories by knockout. Cobb sips to 19-8 með 11 Rothögg.
“I’m pleased with the way Ivan and Trey fought,"Sagði Holden. “The future is extremely bright for both men and the demand to see the Four State Franchise fight at the Buffalo Run Casino is an an all-time high.”

CHICAGO (Apríl 25, 2015) – Premier boxing Champions took Chicago by stormFöstudagur night with an exhilarating fight card featuring three captivating fights on Spike from the UIC Pavilion.

 

The televised opener showcased Roberto “The Threat” Garcia (37-3, 23 Kos) getting an eight-round unanimous decision win over James Stevenson (22-2, 15 Kos). The first main event saw Daniel “The Miracle Man” Jacobs (29-2, 26 Kos) í a 12thround knockout win over the hard-nosed Caleb “Golden” Truax (25-2-2, 15 Kos). The night’s second main event featured Badou Jack “The Ripper” (19-1-1, 12 Kos) earning a majority decision over Anthony “The Dog” Dirrell (27-1-1, 22 Kos).

 

Below are comments offered by the televised fighters as they discussed their performances tonight:

 

ANTHONY DIRRELL

 

He fought a great fight tonight.

 

“Ég vil vera enn.”

 

JACK BADOU

 

I was in great shape for tonight and I believed in myself. All the talk from Dirrell and his camp never got to me.

 

Nothing he did tonight frustrated me. Hann er góður bardagamaður, and I didn’t fight a perfect fight, en ég fékk vinna.

 

I knew they couldn’t rob me. I thought I clearly won. I had a tough start to my career, but I re-focused myself with my team and got back on track.

 

It’s a blessing to be part of PBC. Bringing boxing back to primetime is incredible for the sport. I’m not even from this country originally, but I have lots of fans here and this series will only help me gain more.

 

I want George Groves next.

 

DANIEL JACOBS

 

I was in tremendous shape for this fight. I knew I was ready to go 12 umferðir. He’s a veteran when it comes to fighting down the stretch, so I had to be prepared.

 

At the end of the sixth round I hit him with a right that caused him to stumble into the ropes. I wasn’t sure at that moment if he was really hurt, or if he was just playing opossum. My corner let me know when I really had him hurt though and I took advantage.

 

He didn’t hold as much as I thought he might. I’m glad it turned out that way, but I was prepared for it if he did.

 

He was physically stronger than I thought he’d be, but he never really hurt me tonight.

 

PBC is an unbelievable outlet for us boxers. My hope is that I can continue to grow my brand and become a star inside and outside of the sport of boxing.

 

I’m out to prove that I’m the best in this division. I want whoever Al (HAYMON) says next.

 

CALEB TRUAX

 

I wanted to pressure him, but I couldn’t get my punches off the way I wanted to. His movement was great and it was just an off night for me.

 

I couldn’t get him to engage me and I think that ended up winning him the fight.

 

There were a couple good shots that buzzed me, but no shots that really hurt me all that much. There were no devastating blows or anything. A fighter always wants to continue on, but the ref did his job.

 

PBC is fantastic for bringing in casual fans who wouldn’t have otherwise watched our fights. This is truly groundbreaking. After a fight like that I hope that more and more fans will continue tuning in.

 

I’m heading back to the gym to put in hard work. Hopefully I’ll be back on another PBC card against whoever Warriors and Al (HAYMON) say.

 

ROBERTO GARCIA

 

I felt like Stevenson was just trying to survive, whereas I was trying to win. I could tell that my punches were bothering him. I could hear him breathing very heavily.

 

I was just trying to get back to it tonight. My last fight was almost nine months ago here in this same venue. I needed to get this fight under my belt to keep up my drive and continue working toward the goal.

 

I usually have to chase the guys I’m fighting. Even with the punchers like (Anthony) Margarito I end up having to chase them down. I took all that previous experience and used it tonight. It basically felt like a sparring session for me.

 

PBC is an incredible opportunity for fighters like myself and I plan on continuing to take advantage of it.

 

I have a great team behind me and we’re just interested in moving forward. I’m ready for a big step though. I want Shawn Porter next. I made a commitment to fight him, and I plan on sticking to that.

 

JAMES STEVENSON

 

Nothing he was doing was really getting to me. Staðreyndin er, I took this fight on a week and a half notice. I honestly thought I pulled it off. Everyone knows who really won tonight.

 

I was getting in a groove, but then my back started hurting me and that took me out of it a little bit.

 

PBC gives fighters like me a chance to showcase my skills to so many more people than we’ve been used to.

 

I’m ready for all takers in my weight class. I’m heading back to the gym immediately and I’ll be ready for whatever’s next.

Hér eru það blaðamannafundi þátttakendur höfðu að segja:

 

ANTHONY DIRRELL

 

I’m a better fighter now because I’m working harder. You have to work harder to stay at this level. Now everybody is gunning for you because you have what they want.

 

I’m glad that because of this platform, everybody knows what I’ve been through now. People can see that anything is possible. Going through something like defeating cancer has helped me achieve my dreams.

 

Badou Jack is a good fighter, but he hasn’t fought a guy like me.

 

Á föstudaginn night I just have to hope that Jack doesn’t run. I want him to stand in there with me and we’ll see who’s better. I’m going to test his chin like nobody else has.

 

JACK BADOU

 

I had the best training camp I’ve ever had and I’m ready to bring the title back to Las Vegas.

 

I don’t do the social media trash talking, I save it for the ring and á föstudaginn I’m going to show the world why I deserve to be world champion.

 

I respect Anthony Dirrell for winning the fight against cancer. I lost two of my amateur trainers to that disease and I’ll be dedicating this fight to them.

 

His team likes to bark and talk a lot of trash but they can’t fight for him. Svo sem eins og Föstudagur night it’s just going to be the two of us in the ring.

 

I don’t bark, I don’t talk trash, I let my fists do the talking.

 

Opportunities like this don’t always come around and I will make sure I don’t let this one slip away.

 

DANIEL JACOBS

 

Fighting here in Chicago serves as extra motivation for me. I’ve always been the guy fans favored at Barclays Center, and I may have gotten a little spoiled. So I’m excited to be the guy that people want to see lose. Truax will probably have a larger crowd supporting him, and those fans will motivate me to be stronger and fight better á föstudaginn.

 

People love a great story. I’m extremely proud of my story and for having beat cancer, but let’s not forget about my skill set.

 

Truax can say he’s tired of hearing about ‘The Miracle Manall he wants, but he shouldn’t be thinking about my cancer when we get in the ring. He should just fear me. I’m going to be a cancer to him once we start fighting.

 

I’m not saying I’m going to knock him out. I’m just saying I’m going to win because that’s what I came to do. I’ll take a win however I can get it.

 

CALEB TRUAX

 

This is a huge fight and a huge opportunity for me. It’s a career-changer and life-changer for my career in boxing. I’ve got to be smart in this fight.

 

I couldn’t be in any better shape right now. Physically I’m mature at 31-years-old. This is the right spot for me and a great opportunity.

 

I want to thank all of my fans and you should expect to see a lot of people from Minnesota coming down to see me. It’s going to be great to celebrate with all of them.
