“Danny Garcia is one of the preeminent boxers of this
generation,” 说汤姆·布朗, TGB促销总统. “He’s a
champion through and through. His resume is a veritable ‘Who’s Who?’ of the
best at 140 和 147 pounds over the last 10 岁月. He’s hungry to get his title
back and he’s willing to go through anyone to do that. Adrian Granados is a
tough competitor looking to join the championship ranks and Danny represents
the most direct route. It’s the kind of clash that makes for entertaining
matches. The fans at Dignity Health Sports Park and watching on FOX and FOX
Deportes on April 20 are in for a treat.”
“Danny Garcia knows that he¹s going to have to be on his
A-game, as a victory over Adrian Granados puts him back in position to
regain his welterweight championship,” 伦纳德说Ellerbe, CEO of Mayweather
Promotions. “Adrian Granados is a fighter thatalways comes to put on
exciting fights and holds nothing back against his opponents. The
action leading up to the main event is sure to be crowd pleasers.
I expect the fans in attendance to bring the energy to Dignity Health
Sports Park and those tuning in on FOX and FOX Deportes will be fully
entertained as well.”
加西亚
(34-2, 20 科斯) has fought and defeated many of the most formidable opponents at
140 and 147-pounds spanning two generations-Erik Morales, 朱达, Kendall
Holt, 阿米尔汗, 卢卡斯Matthysse, Paulie Malignaggi and Lamont Peterson among
them. Six of his seven opponents in the welterweight division were former or
current world champions and 12 他最后的 16 opponents overall carried the
same distinction. Included in that run was a headlining performance live on FOX
in January 2016, when he defeated Robert Guerrero to capture his welterweight
title in Los Angeles. Representing the fighting city of Philadelphia, the
30-year-old most recently lost an exciting and narrow decision to Shawn Porter
in their September title fight.
“I
cannot wait to get back in the ring and put on the Danny Garcia show once
again,” 加西亚说. “Granados was talking a big game when we first
announced the fight and I plan on proving him wrong on April 20. The Southern
California fans have always treated me right and I’m excited to give them a
great fight.”
Fighting
out of Cicero, Ilinois, 格拉纳多斯 (20-6-2, 14 科斯) has made a name for himself
by delivering tough, action-packed fights against top fighters in the sport,
including Shawn Porter and Adrien Broner. The 29-year-old burst onto the scene
by shocking then unbeaten Amir Imam via a stoppage victory in their 2015 冲突.
After a fight last June against Javier Fortuna that ended in a no contest,
Granados picked up two-straight knockout wins heading into this matchup.
“This
is a huge fight for me and definitely one of the most important in my
career,” 格拉纳多斯说. “I’m looking to dominate, look impressive and
control the fight. I’ve fought in Southern California before and I’m looking to
take advantage of the great Mexican crowd. This is Mexico versus Puerto Rico
and Chicago vs. 费城. It’s territorial on a lot of levels and you can
expect us to leave it all in the ring.”
Fighting
out of Imperial, 加利福尼亚州, 鲁伊斯 (31-1, 20 科斯) was a two-time Mexican
national champion at super heavyweight as an amateur, before embarking on a pro
career that saw him win his first 29 打架. The 29-year-old lost a close
majority decision against Joseph Parker in their 2016 world title fight and
rebounded with victories over Kevin Johnson and Devin Vargas last year.
The
36-year-old Dimitrenko (41-4, 26 科斯) is a longtime heavyweight contender who
has challenged top fighters throughout his career. Born in Russia but fighting
out of Hamburg, 德国, he most recently lost to Bryant Jennings in a back and
forth fight in August and owns wins over Derric Rossy, Adrian Granat and Miljan
Rovcanin.
The
22-year-old Figueroa (18-0, 13 科斯) most recently delivered a dominant
performance in knocking out Moises Flores in the third-round of their January
fight on FS1. 代表韦斯拉科, 得克萨斯州, the younger brother of former world
champion Omar has a five-fight knockout streak that he brings into the ring on
April 20.
A
former interim champion and title challenger at bantamweight, Parejo (22-3-1,
11 科斯) will look to make his mark at 122-pounds when he battles Figueroa on
April 20. The 32-year-old from Venezuela lost a bantamweight world title fight
to Ryan Burnett last March, but rebounded to most recently defeat Benjamin
Mendoza in February. He won an interim title by stopping Luis Hinojosa in 2014
before losing a split-decision the following year to former champion Zhanat
Zhakiyanov.
