“Roman is very good fighter and I’m ready for a tough fight. He’s progressed a lot. He’s a good puncher, counter puncher and works the body. But I’m ready for whatever he brings. A win would be huge — it puts me in contention to fight a world champion.’’
一个优秀的拳击手，冲床和战术，喜欢反, Lopez was a standout amateur before going pro in February 2012. He is coming off an eighth-round knockout over Carlos Valcarcel 11月. 11, 2016, and is facing likely his toughest test to date in Lopez.

RONALD ELLIS VS. 克里斯托弗·布鲁克, 8 发, 超级中量级
埃利斯, 林恩, 质量。, and Brooker, 费城, are making their second 的ShoBox 开始. Like Lopez, they fought Feb. 19, 2016, 在大西洋城. Ellis boxed an entertaining eight-round majority draw in a slugfest with hard-hitting 杰里奥多姆; Brooker took an eight-round majority decision over previously unbeaten 约翰·玛格达(11-0) in a match that was originally announced a split draw but was later changed to a majority decision win for Brooker.
This will be Ellis’ second fight since the Odom fight. The 27-year-old Ellis, 次中量级前景的哥哥 拉希迪埃利斯, outpointed 奥斯卡·里奥哈斯（Oscar Riojas） across eight rounds on Dec. 10.
Ellis feels he’s benefited from going the distance in consecutive contests. “It’s helped me that I’ve gone through it before,“”埃利斯说, whose 10 knockouts have come inside two rounds (八中第一). “现在, I know what they’re looking for. This time I’ll finish super strong and put on a show. I need this to further my career and put me in main event fights.
“I’ve seen Brooker fight a few times. He’s a tough guy who comes forward and comes to fight, and that is perfect for me. Brooker will be there for me to hit, and it will give me a great opportunity to showcase my talents.’’
作为一个业余爱好者, Ellis upset 特雷尔Gausha 赢 2010 全国金手套. Gausha went on to represent the United States at the 2012 Olympic Games and is now an undefeated professional middleweight.

“I’m ready and excited to get back in the ring,’’ said Brooker. “I can’t wait to fight another undefeated fighter on 的ShoBox. I’m still looking to get to the next level. I was at Ellis’ last fight, and I saw an average fighter compared to the guys I’ve fought. He’s solid, throws nice, short punches but runs out of gas.
“In my last fight I lost because I kept looking for the KO. I have a new trainer now (Gaunch Muhammad), and I’m getting back to the technical part of boxing. I’m jabbing more, and in my previous camps I wasn’t jabbing or boxing enough. I have the heart and condition but I have to get to my opponent with the jab.’’
The Philadelphia native was a top level amateur who has been active since turning professional in 2015.

“This is the biggest fight of my career,’’ said Sims, who is coming off a six-round decision over Jonathan Dinong 最后 十一月. 11. “I will be prepared for anything that I have to do. I’ve seen videos of Romero and I know he is a good fighter. I fought world champions in the amateurs so it’s not a big deal to fight him. I need to take care of business and get my win on national television. It’s as simple as that.”

It was my first 10-rounder and I feel like I won the fight. This time I will be able to show more of what I have.
“Training has been great. I already have been in camp for two months. The fight against Potapov was my first with my new coach (赫尔曼·凯塞多), and this will be our third fight. We won the NABA title by beating Lopez and now we’re back.”
