Ugas (22-3, 11 戦績), キューバで生まれ、現在はラスベガスに住んでいた人, is one of the busiest boxers in the sport and a consensus top-10 fighter in the welterweight division. アミールイマーム中に全会一致の決定を失った後 2014, the 32-year-old Ugas took a year off from boxing, moved up to 147 pounds and came back on a tear. 8月から12ヶ月間で 2016 8月に 2017, Ugasは5つのストレートの戦いに勝ちました, ジャマル・ジェームスなどのトップ候補との見通しをオフにノック, ブライアントPerrella, レヴァンGhvamichava, トーマス・デュロームとネルソンララ.

“I’m very excited to be part of such a great card,” ウガスは言った. “This is a huge opportunity to put myself in position to fight the best fighters in the welterweight division and that’s my goal. 私は私の対戦相手について多くを知りません, but he is a power punching Argentine and I have to be 100 percent ready come September 8. This will be my second appearance on SHOWTIME
CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING and I look forward to making another huge statement. I’m going to close the show in New York like my friend, Yankees’ closer Aroldis Chapman.”
バリオヌエボ (34-3-2, 24 戦績) has devastating one-punch power and is wildly popular in his native Argentina, where he has held regional titles while stopping seven of his last nine opponents. Barrionuevo will make his U.S. 9月にデビュー 8. The 29-year-old has won 10 fights in a row and has only lost once since 2010 as he looks to follow in the footsteps of Marcos Maidana and Lucas Matthysse, elite welterweights from Argentina. バリオヌエボ, なしランクされている人. 6 WBCでのことで 147 ポンド, was previously scheduled to face Abel Ramos on Aug. 3 in Las Vegas before taking the opportunity to fight Ugas in this title eliminator.
“I am proud to be fighting in the United States and fighting on SHOWTIME is a dream come true,” バリオヌエボ氏は語った。. “Argentine boxing has a long history of great champions from Carlos Monzon to Sergio Martinez and most recently Marcos Maidana. I am looking to become one of those great Argentine fighters of this era and it starts on September 8. I bring the power and the heart of my country with me and expect all the Argentine flags to be out at Barclays Center.”
Kownacki (17-0, 14 戦績) has become a must-see attraction amongst the large contingent of Polish boxing fans in his hometown of Brooklyn and will return to fight at Barclays Center for the fifth time on September 8. The 29-year-old has steadily climbed up the rankings, having most recently knocked out then once-beaten heavyweight Iago Kiladze in Brooklyn in January. その勝利の前に, the undefeated heavyweight scored a dominant stoppage of Artur Szpilka last July on Long Island in a matchup of top Polish heavyweights.
“It’s exciting to be back in the ring on SHOWTIME to showcase my skills,” Kownackiは言いました. “It will be another step to reach my goal of becoming the first Polish heavyweight champion. I am training hard in preparation to fight Charles Martin. It will be an amazing night in Barclays Center. I’m hoping Barclays Center will be covered in white and red.”
セントで生まれ. ルイ, マーティン (25-1-1, 23 戦績) captured the IBF Heavyweight World Championship in January 2016 via a third round TKO against Vyacheslav Glazkov at Barclays Center on SHOWTIME. The 32-year-old scored knockouts in 21 彼の最初の 23 before losing in his first title defense against Anthony Joshua in the UK. Martin trains in Big Bear, California and has since scored two knockout victories on his way towards a matchup with Kownacki that could move him closer to another shot at a belt.
“I don’t want to talk about fighting, I just want to get in there and show off my skills,” マーティンは言いました. “For this fight I asked for the toughest opponent that I could get. I’m not worried about who is in front of me. I will be ready on September 8.”
