The 28-year-old Easter (21-1, 14 KOS) won the IBF Lightweight Championship in 2016 by edging an exciting split-decision against then-unbeaten and current IBF titleholder Richard Commey. After two successful title defenses in his hometown of Toledo, Ohio, Easter defeated former champion Javier Fortuna by decision in a January 2018 fight in SHOWTIME.

That victory set up a unification with WBC champion Mikey Garcia, in which Easter survived an early knockdown to push Garcia the full 12 rounds before coming up short on the scorecards. At 5-foot-11, Easter has continued to show the combination of size, skill and athleticism that made him a highly regarded prospect following an amateur career that featured a spot as an alternate on the 2012 US. Olympic team.

I’ve wanted to fight Barthelemy since he had the lightweight title and vacated it, and now I have the chance,” said Easter. “He has an awkward style and I’m up for that challenge. I am still coming in as the taller fighter with a reach advantage and I’ll use it to make this fight go how I want it to. He is a former world champion and he is coming to bring it just like I am.

A decorated Cuban amateur who hails from a boxing family that includes his older brother, Olympic Gold Medalist Yan, and younger brother, unbeaten featherweight Leduan, Rances Barthelemy (27-1, 14 KOS) will return to lightweight to vie against one of the best fighters in the division. The 32-year-old now trains in Las Vegas and previously captured a 135-pound belt by defeating Denis Shafikov in December 2015.

Barthelemy won a 130-pound championship by defeating Argenis Mendez in 2014 and attempted to become the first Cuban three-division champion when he moved up to 140-pounds for his first fight against Relikh, a title eliminator that he won by decision. After dropping the rematch to Relikh in a vacant title fight on SHOWTIME, Barthelemy returned to the ring in December and stopped Robert Frankel.

I’m looking forward to a great fight against Robert Easter Jr,” Said Barthelemy. “I know I have what it takes to beat him and capture another title and become a three-time world champ. My best performances have come at 135 pounds. Both of us are former world champions who are hungry and will give the fans a sensational night of boxing. I’ve never lost at lightweight and that will continue on April 27. Don’t miss this fight on SHOWTIME. It’s now or never!”

Originally from Ukraine, but now fighting out of Los Angeles, Postol (30-2, 12 KOS) previously earned a 140-pound world title by knocking out Lucas Matthysse in 2015. The 35-year-old dropped the title in a unification showdown with Terence Crawford in 2016 before bouncing back by defeating then unbeaten Jamshidbek Najmiddinov. Last June he dropped a decision to unbeaten contender Josh Taylor and most recently he defeated Siar Ozgul in November.

The 31-year-old Mimoune (21-2, 2 KOS) has fought professionally since 2010 og vil gøre hans US. debut against Postol on April 27. Representing Haute-Garonne, Frankrig, Han er ubesejret i sin sidste 10 slagsmål går helt tilbage til 2014. His last five victories have come in 12-round decisions, including two last year over then unbeaten Emiliano Dominguez and most recently against Franck Petitjean.

Nigeria’s Ajagba (9-0, 8 KOS) gained notoriety last August 24 when his opponent, Curtis Harper, walked out of the ring after touching gloves to start the first round. The 24-year-old, 2016 Nigerian Olympian won the fight without throwing a punch as Harper was disqualified. In his last fight Ajagba, who lives in Stafford, Texas and trains with Ronnie Shields, defeated his toughest competition to date by stopping longtime contender Amir Mansour after two rounds.

Bekæmpelse af München, Tyskland, Wallisch (19-1, 12 KOS) won his first 19 pro fights after turning pro in 2010, including a German heavyweight title-winning performance in 2013 against Alexander Kahl. The 33-year-old fought three times last year, picking up two knockout victories before losing to Christian Hammer in December.

“I feel I’m one of the best junior welterweights in the world and this is my chance to display my belief in myself,”Prograis sagde. “I’m very excited to be fighting Viktor Postol – he’s a very experienced fighter that previously held the WBC world title. I want to become a world champion this year, and I know Viktor Postol wants to reclaim his title, but we have to go through each other first. This is a great fight for boxing because you have two hungry fighters. It’s a can’t-miss fight.”

 

 

 

“My goal is to become a world champion again and I know a win over Regis Prograis will bring me one step closer,” Postol said. “I have been training hard for the past couple of months and I’m very excited for the opportunity to face Prograis on Marts 9."

 

 

 

My next fight is very important for my career and I am preparing for it very seriously,"Baranchyk Mackenzie. “A few months ago, I moved to Miami, Fla., where I am now being trained by Pedro Diaz. I have strict discipline for everything in my training. I’m working on improving my skills, tactics for the fight, my skill set and physical strength. I’m also maintaining a much stricter diet and eating very healthy. I want every fighter to know if I am in the boxing ring you will never have an easy fight with me.

 

 

 

“My dream is to become a world champion and I need to defeat Baranchyk to continue on my path,” Yigit said. “This will be my first time fighting in the United States but I’m ready to show the boxing fans that I have what it takes to become a world champion.

It’s an amazing card, great fighters and SHOWTIME is the ultimate name in boxing. It’s a perfect fit!”

 

 

 

A consensus top-10 ranked fighter at 140 pounds, the 29-year-old Prograis has beaten three previously undefeated fighters on the SHOWTIME developmental series ShoBox: Den nye generation. Prograis stamped his arrival as a legitimate contender in the 140-pound division on Juni 9 scoring four knockdowns of previously undefeated Joel Diaz Jr., en route to a second-round TKO. Following the fight, Prograis called out the top players in the 140-pound division, including Terence Crawford and Adrien Broner, og Marts 9, he’ll get his first chance to prove he’s ready to face the division’s elite.

 

 

 

Prograis’ nickname “Rougarou” originates from Louisiana folklore and is defined as a werewolf-like creature. Oprindeligt fra New Orleans, Prograis relocated to Houston following Hurricane Katrina.

 

 

 

Postol won the vacant WBC 140-pound World Championship with a stunning and dominating 10th round knockout of Lucas Matthysse in 2015. The 34-year-old Ukrainian attempted to unify the division in his first defense, losing via unanimous decision to then-WBO champion Terence Crawford in 2016. He has since bounced back with a win over previously unbeaten Jamshidbek Najmiddinov last September in his native Ukraine. A win would move him one step closer to earning back the coveted WBC title he lost.

 

 

 

The co-feature also pits two of the top prospects in the 140-pound division, each with an opportunity to score the biggest win of their respective careers.

 

 

 

The aggressive-minded Baranchyk is a former amateur standout that packs power in both hands. The 25-year-old native of Belarus is currently ranked No. 4 in the IBF at 140 pounds and owns seven wins over previously undefeated fighters. He’s gone the 10-round distance three times and is coming off an eight-round unanimous decision over then-undefeated Keenan Smith last July on ShoBox in his adopted hometown of Miami, Okla.

 

 

 

The 26-year-old Yigit competed in the 2012 Olympics for Sweden, advancing to the second round before losing a very narrow decision to eventual Silver Medalist Denys Berinchyk. The Stockholm native has tallied 21 victories in just four years following the Olympics while campaigning in Europe. The southpaw will make his U.S. debut against Baranchyk as he looks to prove he’s ready to contend on the world stage.

 

 

 

The doors open and first bout begins at 5:30 p.m. More information on the Deadwood Mountain Grand can be found on their website at www.DeadwoodMountainGrand.com.

Rite Hook Promotions News and Notes

Oktober 10, 2017 (Biloxi, FRK) – Rite Hook Promotions has run a successful string of professional boxing shows in the Biloxi area, senest Juli 29 at the Climb Event Center in nearby Gulfport. Rite Hook CEO William Hunter opened doors for local fighters and multiple boxers signed under the Rite Hook Promotions banner through his fight cards along with various relationships he has with promoters across the US.
• Rite Hook Promotions’ Javonn “Pinkie” Barnes agreed to fight welterweight contender Karim Mayfield Oktober 21in his hometown of San Francisco, F.EKS. The undefeated Barnes, who is from Atlanta, was in training camp preparing for the opportunity and Mayfield stirred the pot by trash talking on Barnes’ social media pages. To the surprise of Barnes and Hunter, a contact never came and Mayfield is instead fighting Miguel Dumas of Mexico.
Hunter believes that the 5’11 Barnes’ size was a concern for Mayfield. The last foe Mayfield, 5’7, faced 5’11 or taller was back in 2008. Although the Mayfield fight is off the table, Barnes will continue to receive world class sparring when he joins Regis Prograis’ training camp to help him prepare for his upcoming bout against Viktor Postol. Hunter is negotiating to get Barnes on the undercard.
• Mike “ConcreteBissett came up short in his August 25 challenge for the NABF heavyweight championship against hard-hitting Laron Mitchell. Bissett, a natural cruiserweight who has a reputation for taking on all comers, entered the fight with an injury and a 30-plus pound weight disadvantage. A throwback fighter, Bissett looks to get back on track in the near future.
• Hunter is partnering with a group headed by Florida Boxing Hall of Fame inductee Pete Fernandez to start a promotional firm called Fight Night Promotions. The company is hosting their first show Fredag, November 10 at the Bryan Glaser Family JCC in Tampa, FL. Like Hunter’s vision with Rite Hook, Fight Night Promotions will help build and promote local talent. Fighters currently scheduled to appear on the 10th include female sensation Jazmine Artiga, who Hunter believes is a superstar in the making, and Ivan Franco. More information on the card will be announced shortly.

Eleider Alvarez
Alvarez will put his WBC mandatory challenger position to champion Adonis“Superman” Stevenson (28-1, 23 KOS) in danger with an end of April date for this world title fight having already been reserved.
Bute has also set his goal to challenge Stevenson. The veteran southpaw plans to clearly demonstrate that he deserves another wotld title shot, taking on the No. 1 conternder in undefeated Alvarez. Whatever the final outcome, the winner will be the most popular and legitimate challenger for Stevenson, dramatically increasing interest and notoriety of a totally Québécois world championship showdown.
All the ingredients are gathered to heighten popular interest in this fight, which will prove to be one of the most significant in the history of Quebec.
It is a local confrontation between two athletes who chose Quebec as their adopted home, fully integrating in the loal culture and learning French, as well as where they’ve fought the vast majority of their bouts. The result of this major clash will also have enormous repercussions at the international level in the light heavyweight division.
In one corner is former world champion Bute, who has delivered many inspirational performances during his 13 world championship fights (10-2-1, 8 KOS) to become a great star and admired celebrity in Quebec.
The other corner finds unbeaten Alvarez, a world-class fighter for the past three years who has delivered his most brilliant performances abroad, albeit mostly in the shadows of other great stars of Quebec. The former Colombian Olympian wants to establish his true value after having prepared for Stevenson by fighting opponents for more than the past year. He will earn his highest purse, which is similar to what he would have received to fight Stevenson first.
It is the fans of Quebec in their entirety who will first be delighted with this mega fight and I am convinced that there will be no losers,” GYM præsident Yvon Michel sagde. “Although it is difficult to predict the outcome of this confrontation, most likely this fight will be so interesting and close that, eventually the two could get, one after the other, a world championship fight against the powerful southpaw champion of Montreal, Adonis Stevenson.
It was important for us to have this fight at the Vidéotron Centre,” tilføjet Vice-President Shows & Creative Content of Québecor, Michel Granger. The last time (the Stevenson-Williams fight) was a success and it will be the same on Februar 24.”

The last six months have been tough for me,” Bute explained. “After the Washington situation was settled, I was happy to finally sit down and discuss my next fight. I accepted as soon as I was offered the fight. We’re talking about an undefeated guy ranked number 1 af WBC. It’s quite a challenge. I tip my hat to Alvarez for putting his position in peril.
I was expecting the winner of the unification title fight between James Dégale og Badou Jack, but I had no guarantees and I could not afford to wait. My goal is to fight again for a world championship, whether it’s at 168 eller 175 pounds, and I did not want to just take a meaningless preparatory fight.
After evaluating all the options, we came to the conclusion that we had to take this fight,” Alvarez’ hoved træner Marc Ramsey remarked. “Selvfølgelig, there are risksbut it’s worth it. Eleider has long awaited an opportunity to box against someone recognized in Quebec, and people have not yet seen his full potential. He was all smiles when he received the offer.”.
When Marc called me into his office,” Alvarez commented, “I was wondering what was going on. Generally, when he calls me into his office, it’s not good news. He asked me to sit down and if I wanted to face Bute. I smiled and said, ja. He is the most popular boxer in Quebec, so my motivation will be different. I’m doing this for myself and my family. I want to be world champion and now it’s going through Lucian. I’ve been looking a long time for a big fight like this and for the first time I will be the headliner.

QUEBEC CITY, Canada (November. 29, 2015) - James Degale forsvarede sin IBF Super mellemvægt VM i en thriller løbet hjemby favorit og tidligere mester Lucian Bute på lørdag i de vigtigste tilfælde af SHOWTIME Championship Boxing.

 

Det var den første titel forsvar for Degale, den 2008 OL-guldvinder fra England, der gik på vejen til Boston for at vinde titlen tidligere i år og valgte at forsvare i fjendtligt territorium.

 

Bute, der forsøgte at genvinde IBF bælte han forsvarede ni gange mellem 2007 og 2012, put on an inspired and gutsy performance in an electric atmosphere to open the new Videotron Centre in Quebec City. But the unbelievable pace, samt et arsenal af overhand rettigheder, krop skud og combos fra den yngre Degale (22-1, 14 KOS) viste sig at være forskellen som Degale sejrede 116-112, 117-111 (to gange).

 

"Jeg er ung, og jeg er frisk. Jeg topper lige nu,” DeGale said. “I’m ready for the best in the world. Tak til Bute – han er en stor mester, og tro mig, han vil være tilbage. "

 

"Som jeg har sagt i fortiden, han er en verdensklasse fighter. Jeg har stadig ting at arbejde på i de næste tre eller fire år, og jeg har tænkt mig at være min bedste. "

 

Bute (32-3, 25 KOS) didn’t look anything like the fighter that lost to Carl Froch in 2012. But while the 35-year-old stalked the switch-hitting DeGale with a relentless attack, han kunne ikke gør nok for at overmande den ekstremt aktive Brit, der kastede 524 power slag i forhold til 278 for Bute.

 

“I think it was a great fight. I did my best tonight,” Bute said. “I think it was a close fight. He’s an Olympic champion, he’s a world champion. If the judges give him the decision I respect that. I’ll be back in the gym to work hard and continue to fight. I think it was a very close fight. I’m happy with my performance and I’ll be back in the gym to get back in the ring one more time.

 

“The last three years were difficult for me. After I lost to Carl Froch that was a very difficult period for me. I took a break, and now I’m back. Jeg føler stor, Jeg føler sunde og nu har jeg endnu en chance for at være tilbage på toppen.

 

“Maybe a few rounds I waited too much and didn’t put the punches together and I let James fight me. When I pushed pressure and pushed back I won the round.”

 

I åbningen Bout på SHOWTIME Championship Boxing, Eleider Alvarez optjent ret til at møde WBC Light Heavyweight verdensmester Adonis Stevenson med en tæt flertalsbeslutning løbet Isaac Chilemba, scoret 114-114, 118-110, 115-113.

 

Alvarez, rangeret Nej. 2 af WBC på 175 pounds, startede hurtigt og hul runder mod Nej. 1 ranked contender Chilemba. But Chilemba weathered the storm and fought his way back in the fight as Alvarez couldn’t keep up the pace he established in the earlier rounds.

 

Begge kæmpere kom ud med en følelse af uopsættelighed i 12th og beslutte strofe, og hvis Chilemba havde vundet den sidste runde kampen ville have været regeret uafgjort.

 

"Jeg vidste, at jeg var nødt til at afslutte de senere runder stærke, men jeg tror, ​​jeg gjorde nok til at vinde kampen,” Alvarez said. “I’m ready to accept the challenge and face Stevenson. At være verdensmester, du nødt til at slå mesteren. Så det er hvad jeg har til formål at gøre. "

 

Mark hævdede, at ALVAREZ, der kæmper ud af nærliggende Montreal, var modtageren af ​​en "hjemby beslutning,"Selv om den dommer, der regerede kampen uafgjort var en lokal, og de to andre var fra neutrale territorier.

 

"Jeg troede, jeg gjorde nok til at vinde det,” Chilemba said. “But it is what it is. Jeg tror, ​​du kan kalde det en hjemby beslutning. "

 

Efter kampen, SHOWTIME Sports vært Brian Custer satte sig ned med Stevenson for at få sine tanker om Alvarez-Chilemba og hans fremtid.

 

"Det var en tæt fysisk kamp,” Stevenson said. "Han (Alvarez) vandt denne kamp, ​​men det var meget tæt. "

 

"Vi taler om Kovalev fordi WBC stadig rangerer ham Nej. 1 contender. Jeg vil have denne kamp til at ske. The fans want it to happen. I said June is perfect for me. He said ‘OK, Juni,"Kathy Duva sagde" Intet problem, June.’ Then she said on HBO. Jeg sagde, "Glem alt om tv'er, let them talk.’ We want the fight to happen. Let the TVs work together and make it happen.

 

“I want to fight Kovalev. That’s the best opportunity for me because I want his titles. For sure, this fight will happen in June. I don’t have a problem; my team doesn’t have a problem. I want this fight in June.

 

Kovalev is scared. I talked to him, saw it in his eyes that he’s scared of me. It will happen, but I know Kovalev is scared. I want Kovalev. I’m very hungry to get his titles.”

 

Adrian Granados overlevet en første runde knockdown at chokere ubesejret super let udsigten Amir Imam i åbningen anfald af SHOWTIME BOKSNING ON SHO EXTREME med en ottende runde TKO (2:34).

 

Det var et knusende nederlag for Imam, der kom ind i kampen, da Ingen. 1 obligatoriske udfordrer til WBC Super Letvægts verdensmester Viktor Postol.

 

Imam looked like he was going to finish the fight early after a nice left-right combo floored the Chicago native. But after escaping the first, Granados dikterede tempoet i kampen, worked the inside and prevented Imam – considered one of boxing’s most talented young contenders – from establishing his jab. With Imam unable to keep the fight at a distance, Granados picked apart the Don King-promoted fighter. After seven rounds of punishment and Iman gasping for air against the ropes Granados finished his opponent with a series of devastating combo shots.

 

En opstemt Granados (15-3-2, 10 KOS), der har tab til krigere med en samlet oversigt over 49-0, tryglede sin sag at blive den obligatoriske udfordrer.

 

"Jeg tror, ​​jeg skulle være den obligatoriske udfordrer,” Granados said. “He was in line and I stopped him. Hvad betyder det? Come on. I was the underdog, men jeg kom bare til at tage det. Jeg kom til at tage det.

 

"Det føles fantastisk. Når jeg havde ham wobbled jeg var ligesom, "You got at få ham nu. This time you’re not taking it from me.’ It was a flash knockdown. Han fangede med højre hånd, men jeg var okay. Jeg bare dukkede lige op, og jeg vidste, at han ville forsøge at afslutte mig. Vi fik ud af det og gik tilbage til arbejdet. "

 

På trods af den demoraliserende tab, Jeg har (18-1, 15 KOS) ikke fortryde at tage en kamp, ​​som sandsynligvis vil banke ham ud af titlen påstand.

 

"Jeg kender folk måske sige, at jeg ikke burde have taget denne kamp, men jeg havde brug for denne kamp i mellem som en tune-up for min næste kamp, ​​fordi jeg ikke ønskede at vente på de seks til otte måneder for verden titel skudt.

 

"Nøglen til kampen var min jab, Jeg vidste bare ikke bruge det nok,” Imam said. “But that’s the way it goes and I’m going to definitely come back stronger. I wasn’t thinking anything after that first-round knockdown. I’ve done that many times and didn’t think the fight was over. I wasn’t surprised at all by the way he came out. Jeg ved, hvordan han kæmper. Han er en god fighter og det er alt der er til det. "

 

I åbningen anfald af SHOWTIME BOKSNING ON SHO EXTREME, ubesejret sværvægter udsigten Oscar Rivas (18-0, 13 KOS) slået ud veteran Joey Abell (31-9, 29 KOS) på :46 af den anden runde.

Her er, hvad SHO EXTREME deltagerne havde at sige på torsdag:

 

AMIR LOVE

"Jeg ved, jeg tager en risiko ved at tage denne kamp, ​​men jeg har tænkt mig at drage fordel af denne. Jeg virkelig ikke brug for hvile, fordi jeg er i gymnastiksalen alligevel. Så lad os bare få denne kamp ud af vejen, og jeg vil bare vente på verden titel kamp.

 

"Jeg føler mig ikke presset. Jeg ved, hvad jeg sprang ind i, da jeg kom ind i denne professionel boksning spil, og jeg har et godt team omkring mig. Vi er en stram cirkel og meget stærk, og når mulighederne kommer, Jeg vil være klar til at drage fordel af det.

 

"Folk taler om mig ønsker at kæmpe Errol Spence og få hævn (på en tidligere US. Olympisk boksning forsøg tab). Jeg har ikke hævn over mit sind. Jeg mener, kunne vi helt sikkert gøre det, når jeg flytter en vægtklasse, men lige nu er jeg fokuseret på en 140-pund titel skudt. Jeg vil have denne titel skudt i begyndelsen 2016 mod (nuværende WBC verdensmester) Viktor Postol.

 

"(Postol) er en god fighter, og han fik titlen for en grund, men du kan ikke gemme og køre alt for længe, ​​og min tid kommer næste år. Du får et forsvar, og så er det hele mig. Det er alt Young Master. "

 

ADRIAN GRANADOS

"Jeg ville sige dette er den største kamp i min karriere. Det kommer til at være en stor kamp, ​​og jeg ser frem til en stor aften.

 

"(Imamens) fik en masse værktøjer og han er meget talentfuld. Vi vil tage det rundt ved rundt og foretage justeringer som kampen går.

 

"Jeg har steget godt. Jeg er ikke tilfreds med den måde min karriere er gået og havde en masse dårlige beslutninger og ledelsesmæssige problemer. Jeg var ikke bragt sammen ligesom min modstander var. Men det har hjulpet mig med at vokse nogle tykke hud og attributter til hvorfor jeg er her i dag.

 

"Jeg har konfronteret hårde krigere før, og det er ikke første gang, jeg har været underdog. Jeg vil trække ud denne ked.

 

"Jeg glæder mig til at chokere boksning verden på lørdag nat. "

 

OSCAR RIVAS

"Min styrke er min hastighed, og den måde jeg lægge pres på min modstander. Så jeg har tænkt mig efter (Abell) og vil lægge et stort pres på ham, indtil han falder.

 

"Jeg er så begejstret og opstemt at kæmpe igen på en stor scene. Jeg kæmpede på ShoBox i min sidste kamp, ​​og det var fantastisk. Det er så vigtigt for mig at få set så jeg kan opfylde min drøm og komme ind i top 10 i min division.

 

"Dette er den største kamp i min karriere, og den største mulighed, jeg nogensinde har haft. Jeg vil bare være sikker på jeg få fat i det og ser spektakulære. "

 

Stacy McKINLEY, Imamens manager og træner

"Jeg kan ikke finde noget, vi skal arbejde på. Amir er stærk og teknisk forsvarlig og han bliver mere erfarne, hver gang han kæmper. Han er en ødelæggende puncher. Han er den fulde pakke, og det er meget svært at finde. De kommer ikke rundt for ofte.

 

"Jeg vil gerne have ham til at kæmpe Adrien Broner næste år. Jeg vil gerne bekæmpe alle de fyre og forene alle titler næste år. Boksning kommer til at bruge en ny superstjerne nu, at Floyd Mayweather er væk, og vi kommer ikke til at vente 15 år til at gøre en anden en. Jeg tror Amir forener alle titler på 140 og 147, så ville vi have vores nye superstjerne inden 36 måneder.

 

"Han er nødt til at bruge sin jab til at vinde på lørdag. Han har en smuk jab, den bedste jab i boksning. Og alt skal komme lige bag det. "

"De tror, ​​at det kommer til at være en boksekamp, men det vil være en ødelæggelse. It will be explosive. Three rounds – place your bets. Tro mig.

"Jeg kæmpede det bedste super mellemvægt southpaw derude i Andre Dirrell og ser, hvad jeg gjorde for ham. Once he feels my power that will be it. I’m going to start fast and throw loads of punches.

"Jeg så ham mod Carl Froch, iagttog ham imod (Rid) Andrade. He’s great in the center of the ring, but I’m not going to stand there. It won’t be a chess match. I’ll start fast and we’ll see how he takes it.

"Carl udsatte ham, og jeg vil slutte ham. But I don’t care about Carl Froch – he’s old. I’m the new champion. If he wants this belt, Han bliver nødt til at komme få det.

“I’m an old school fighter – I don’t mind travelling to fight in my opponents’ hometown.

"Han var en stor mester, der har kæmpet nogle store krigere, så jeg burde få kudos da jeg slog ham."

LUCIAN BUTE

“It’s a great opportunity to fight for my old belt in front of my hometown fans. I think they’ll push me toward the victory. I’m looking forward to becoming world champion again.

"Jeg tror, ​​han er den bedste super mellemvægt i verden lige nu, men jeg er meget sikker på mig selv.

“I had a great camp. I’m just ready to become world champion again.

"Jeg er sund, I feel great physically. I have the power to knock him out and the skills to box him.

"Nu har jeg chancen for at komme tilbage min bælte mod en anden engelsk fighter."

JIM McDONNELL, Degale træner

"Jeg har prøvet at komme tilbage og gøre, hvad Lucian har gjort, og det er ikke let. Stil ind på lørdag nat, fordi det, jeg har fået er speciel, og du vil nyde det, du ser.

“It’s tough to win your world title back. I respect Lucian for trying, men James er en verdensklasse fighter. Han er klar til alt. "

HOWARD GRANT, Bute træner

“We did everything we had to do. Lucian is 100 percent prepared to surprise everyone on Saturday. Lucian knows what wearing that belt is all about – he wore it for about five years and he’s coming on Saturday to take it back to where it belongs.”

ELEIDER ALVAREZ

"Dette er min chance lige nu. Jeg er sulten, og jeg har gjort alt, hvad jeg havde at gøre for at få det bedst mulige lejr for denne kamp. Jeg står over for en meget intelligent bokser, der er teknisk fremragende. Men jeg har altid sagt, at hvis jeg ikke står over for den bedste, så vil jeg blive en almindelig bokser. Så jeg skal vende den bedste, at være den bedste.

"Når jeg vågner søndag morgen, Jeg har tænkt mig at være den obligatoriske udfordrer til titlen. "

Mark ISAAC

"Jeg havde en stor lejr i Burbank, Calif., uddannelse der i seks eller syv uger. Jeg tror, ​​jeg skulle have et skud på Stevenson, og hvis det er det, det tager at få der jeg vil gøre, hvad er muligt at gøre det ske. Jeg er klar til udfordringen.

"Jeg kæmper en god fighter og han er ubesejret for en grund. Men jeg er her for at bevise, at jeg er det bedste lys sværvægter i verden. Jeg vil lægge på en god Vis på lørdag nat og alle vil se.

"Jeg har en masse prøvelser i mit liv, men jeg tror, ​​det er det, der gør mig stærkere og har gjort mig, hvad jeg er i dag. Jeg kan ikke se tilbage på, hvad der er sket, og jeg sætter pris på, hvad livet har givet mig.

“He is a great fighter and I know it won’t be an easy fight. But I’ve put in the work and I’m ready.”

MARC RAMSAY, Alvarez træner

"Dette er de store ligaer lige nu. Disse to er det bedste lys sværvægtere i verden. Jeg har haft mulighed for at arbejde med Isak, fordi han har diskuteret i Montreal med Artur Beterbiev i to uger. Så jeg kender ham godt. Han er en meget komplet og komplekst bokser. Men jeg fuld tillid til min fighter for at vinde denne kamp. Det er hans chance. "

BUDDY McGIRT, The Mark'S Trainer

"Jeg vil bare sige, det er dejligt at være en del af denne begivenhed. Hr. Degale er mester og han kommer til hr. Bute land at bekæmpe ham. Det er, hvad boksning behov. Det har brug for flere kampe som denne til at holde det i stigning.

"Så vidt vores kamp går med hr. Alvarez, Jeg tror, ​​at udover (Sergey) Kovalev, disse to er det bedste lys sværvægtere i verden. Og jeg tror, ​​at de skal kæmpe om titlen og ikke en eliminator at se, hvem kæmper mester. "

LONDON (November. 16, 2015) - To dage før han afgår til Canada, IBF Super Mellemvægt verdensmester James "Chunky" Degale (21-1, 14 KOS) afholdt en åben medie træning i Stonebridge Boxing Club i London som han nærmer sig afslutningen af ​​en 10-plus uge træningslejr for sin titel forsvar mod tidligere verdensmester og canadiske fan favorit, Lucian Bute (32-2, 25 KOS), Montreal, på Lørdag, November. 28, bor på SHOWTIME (11 p.m. OG/PT) fra Videotron Centre af Quebec City.

 

Arrangementet faktureret som "genvinding" er en præsentation af Videotron i samarbejde med Mise-O-Jeu.

 

Her er hvad Degale havde at sige på mandag:

 

JAMES Degale:

"Jeg tror, ​​jeg er den bedste super mellemvægt derude lige nu. There are hard fights in the division. Badou Jack is a good fighter, men jeg tror, ​​jeg slog ham og slog ham godt, hvis jeg forbliver tændt for den fulde 12 runder.

 

"Arthur Abraham er stadig en hård kunde og forhåbentlig Martin Murray kan gøre forretningen. Jeg tror, ​​han vil slå ham, selv om det er svært at vinde i Tyskland.

 

"Jeg ønsker at bevise jeg er den bedste, Jeg vil gå nogen steder at gøre det, og det er derfor, jeg forsvarer min titel i Canada. Alle verdensmestre i Storbritannien har store rivaler på døren, så det er en rigtig spændende tid på hjemmemarkedet samt til boksning i Storbritannien lige nu - men jeg er overbevist om jeg slog alle i denne division.

 

"Jeg kan lide boksning væk fra hjemmet – maybe it’s time I started being called ‘the road warrior’. I won my world title in Boston and now I am defending it in Canada against a classy opponent in Lucian Bute. I know it’s going to be a hard fight but I am ready for that. My sparring has been great, Jeg rammer store gange på sporet, Jeg føler mig stærk i gymnastiksalen, og jeg bare ser frem til det.

 

"Intet ændrer sig under Jim McDonnell – det handler om hårdt arbejde, lange ture op Hampstead Heath, 15 runde sparring sessioner, fem minutters runder i gymnastiksalen – Jeg er altid i god form. We haven’t changed anything really. Hvis noget, we’ve had to just adjust the mindset and train like a challenger even though I am the champion. That’s the way you have to think.

 

"Jeg føler frisk, skarp og klar. jeg rejser onsdag and I am raring to go. I just can’t wait to get in there now. Jeg ønskede at komme derud en god 10 days early to acclimate to the weather and the time. Once I am there, Jeg føler endnu mere tændt. "
