Kelly Swanson

Dankoni vin. Bone, let’s go ahead and open it up. Actually, let me go ahead and introduce the two guys that are on the call right now. They want to say a couple words. Unue, we have Vanes Martirosyan. He’s a world-ranked 154 pound contender. Vanes, Vi deziras diri parajn vortojn, diri nin kiom trejna estas iranta kaj kiel vi’re akiranta pretan por la batalo?

Vanes Martirosyan

Trejnanta estas iranta grandan, everything is going good. We can’t wait to fight. Vi scias, I’m certe #?iu diras ke #anta? ol ili batalas, but we really are ready to go. We just can’t wait to go.

Kelly Swanson

Bone, great. Dankonas tiel. And where are you training?

V. Martirosyan

I’m training here in California at Main Event Sports Club. There’s been a couple of locations we’ve been training, Sed la majoro estis #?efa Eventaj Sportoj Klubo, Kiu la amaskomunikilaro estos #?e #hodia?.

K. Swanson

Nun, I’m going to move to Jermell Charlo. He’s an undefeated super welterweight contender. Jermell why don’t you tell us a little bit about what’s happening in your training camp and how you’re feeling heading into the fight.

Jermell Charlo

Training’s been great. Every time I step in the ring, #?Iu tempo mi akiras pretan por batalo, I feel like just there’s never been a time where I repeat myself or do something the same. I’ve been learning from all my past mistakes. Every win I’m still learning from. Tiel, training camp has been good. Trainer Ronnie Shields, Danny Arnold. Mi malfermis mian propran gimnastikejon, so I get a little late night extra hours in when I want to. Kaj, I want to fight with my twin brother. We’re pushing to fight. I can’t wait to fight. Just like Vanes, Li’s malsata, Li’s preta. I’m I’m ready.

Q

Donita #amba? de viaj pozicioj, Kiel konsiderita kiel supro 10 Konkurantoj en la 154 Funta pezo klaso, En via menso, #?u vi konsideras #tio ?i elimina batalo? Vanes, Kio estas viaj pensoj pri tio?

V. Martirosyan

I think every fight right now at this point in my career and Jermell’s career should be considered a title fight. It is — Mi pensas ?in estas — an eliminator fight. I’m looking at this as a championship fight. Jermell is tougher than any of the champions, Tiel al mi, #Tio ?i estas #?ampioneco batalo, and that’s what we got ready for. And it should be an eliminator fight. I don’t know if it is or not, Sed ke’s kiel ni’re prenanta ?in kiel, Kaj ni’re prenanta #tio ?i kiel monda titola batalo.

Q

Jermell, Viaj pensoj sur tio – Estas ?i oficiala eliminator #a? de facto unu?

J. Charlo

Same thing with me. I feel that this is a tough fight. Every fight is a fight for my life. And I step in the ring and make sure that I fight with that on the back of my mind. Vanes is a great fighter — Kreskis supre kun li. I know what I bring to the table. And this fight is a fight for manhood, ?i’s batalo montri kiun la vera magnato de la sporto estas en la 154 pound weight division. There’s a lot at stake, Do ?i’s pli da ol titola batalo al mi.

Q

Jermell, #?u vi diras ke vi kreskis supre kun li iomete?

J. Charlo

Yeah, I grew up with him, at least two or three years with Vanes, Vi scias, and his family, his people, Vi scias? Tiel, I knowwe know each other well.

Q

Have you guys ever sparred with each other?

J. Charlo

Yeah, we’ve sparred with each other several times.

Q

How often, would you say? And how long ago?

J. Charlo

I can’t really say how often. I know it was back when we were a little bit younger. I was younger, still a little boy growing up into a man. Tiel, nun, I don’t even think about how it was, what it was about, or how training was when we were training together. Wasn’t #e? 19 — Mi estis 17, 16, 17, 18, Mi signifas, those ages. Ĉi tie, Ni alfrontas #?iu alia #?ar ni’re #amba? #?e la supro, and that’s what happens when you’re in the same division. Never had anything personal or different to say about him. It’s just work.

Q

Vanes, Vi sentas la saman vojon pri viaj tempoj en la ringo kun li?

V. Martirosyan

Yeah, I remember when we used to train. It was good training. We were always in competition — Mi, him and his brother. We used to go running at Memorial Park every day, and we’d try to see who’d finish the lap first. It was always competition between usrunning and training or what-not. But it was nothing but love and I respect him, Lia patro, Kaj lia trejnisto, Ronnie #?ildo. They’ve been good people to me. Sed Sabato Nokto, Li’s iranta esti mia malamiko en la ringo. Nuntempe, Ekster la ringo, Mi respektas #?iu. Once we step in the ring, ?i’s tute malsama rakonto.

Q

Your fight that took place in October was a big win for you against Willie Nelson. You harnessed a lot of the emotion going into that fight because it had taken place just after your promoter Dan Goossen had passed away and you had his brother Joe in your corner. It was a lot of heavy emotion that night, and you really came through in a big way that night. Is it gonna be difficult in any way to sort of get that same emotion behind you?

V. Martirosyan

Ne, #?Ar #?e tiu batalo, Ni devis forgesi pri multaj aferoj. Dan passed away. We were all sad, and we didn’t know what to do. And we actually thought‘should we fightor I don’t know if Joe (Goossen’s) going to be there. I didn’t know what was going on. There was too much emotion going into that fight. We kind of got away from the fight a little bit. But we used it as motivation for our fight. This fight to me is big. When I lost to Andrade, I didn’t step into the ring 100 Procento, and when I came homewhen you come home a loser, ?i’s malbona sento. Mi povas’t rigardas mian edzinon, my kids. I feel like I let them down. Tiel, nun, I’m nur en tiu maniero kie I’d prefere morti ol vidas ke denove.

Q

Se vi estis gajni #?i tiu batalon, Evidente, Vi’d esti en pozicio por grava monda titola batalo. Estas vi komforta kun atendanta por unu el tiuj, Kalkulanta tiujn batalantojn nur batali eble dufoje jaron, #A? volus vin deziras resti aktivan kaj preni pli da bataloj inter ili?

J. Charlo

Vi scias, Gajnanta #?i tiu batalon al mi — a world title would be ideal. A world title is important. I want to fight for a world title. I want the world title. That’s every boxer’s dream and envision whenever they’re young. Batalanta por la mondaj titolaj aferoj kaj #?iuj #?i tiu kroma #a?o, Sed se mi’m #?i tie konstruanta mian nomon kaj konstruanta mian markon, KE’s tiel grava. Estanta familia nomo dum la Monda Boksa Konsilio, #?Io. Kiu gravas al mi.

V. Martirosyan

La batalo, #?I tiu batalo — I’d diras kiel multa la #?ampiono kiu estas #?ampiono #?uste nun en nia peza klaso, Plejparto de ili nur kuras ilian #bu?o, starting with Andrade. A fight like this for me and Jermell, ?i’s tia granda batalo por mi, Vi scias, but it’s not only for us. Mi signifas, it’s for the fans. The fans are in, and it’s great. Mi signifas, you rarely get to see contenders like me and Jermell wanting to step up and fight each other. Vi scias, Kutime, Homoj #veki?i al la rangotabeloj #?ati nin estas, they just want to just talk a lot of bad stuff about the champions to get the world title fight. Sed, Vi scias, Vi malofte akiras vidi konkurantojn kiel tio, Vi scias, Ne. 1 Kaj Ne. 2 fighting each other when, you know they really want to fight each other and they both said yes to the fight. Tiel, ?i’s granda batalo, Sed mi sentas #?ati, Vi scias, Ni’re #?iu gonna esti — Ni’re gonna fari nian plej bonan, Kaj mi sentas kiel la fervoruloj estas gonna esti la gajnintoj por #?i tiu batalo.

K Swanson

Bone, great. You guys, Mi pensas ke estis via lasta demando, and so we appreciate you taking the time out of your training. And Vanes, we look forward to seeing you later for your open workout. Kaj, Jermell, Ni volas #?is revido en Las Vegas poste #?i tiu semajno.

J. Charlo

No problem. See you, Uloj.

V. Martirosyan – Dankoni vin. Take care.

Kelly Swanson

Ni’re iranta #?alti la vokon super al Gary Russell, Jr.

K. Swanson

Gary Russell, Jr. Estos alfrontanta Jhonny Gonzalez por Gonzalez’s 126 Funta titolo, the WBC Featherweight World Championship. Gary, Se vi deziras diri nin iomete pri kiel trejnado estas iranta, your anticipation to be fighting Jhonny Gonzalez for this world title and what you think about the whole fight in general?

Gary Russell Jr.

We had a great training camp. Everything has been perfect, no excuses, no cutting corners. We’re 120 percent ready for this fight. We can’t wait be able to call ourself the new WBC World Champion.

K. Swanson

Are you doing anything in camp in preparation for this that’s different from your other fights?

G. Russell Jr.

Ne, we’re not doing anything that’s different in preparation for any of the fights. I think the only difference is, Dependanta sur la batalo, you want to prepare depending on the opponent that you’re competing against. Tiel, Mi pensas la nuran diferencon estas la diferenco en disputado. Vi deziras alporti en uloj kiu havas similan stilon al kiu ?i estas vi’re gonna esti konkurencanta #kontra? ktp. That’s the only change that we’ve made so far. Besides that — Baza fundamentals, Sonoradi generalship, Mana rapido, Pugnanta potencon, forto kaj prepariteco, #?Iu de tiu #a?o estas la sama.

Q

GAry, Estis vi surprizis akiri alian pafon #?e la titolo?

G. Russell, Jr.

Ne, I’m ne surprizita. Mi akiris la saman Al Haymon #Anta?enigo, Nur Al Haymon en generalo kiam ?i venas al tio. Li’s mia #mana?ero, Kaj ni scias ke li faris #?io en lia potenco provi fari aferojn okazas por ni, and give us another shot at a world title. I’m extremely grateful and thankful for this opportunity.

Q

Kiam vi batalis la batalon #kontra? Lomachenko por unu el la titoloj, #?u vi prenas io ajn ekstere de tiu malvenko? #?U ?i’s la sperto, #A? estanta sur tiu nivelo de la stadio ke vi alportas al #?i tiu sekvanta #?ampioneco #?anco?

G. Russell Jr.

Certe. One of the main things that we took out of it is, Se ?i’s ne rompis, don’t fix it. In that particular fight with Lomachenko, we did a lot of things completely different in that fight that we normally wouldn’t do. We brought other people in. We let other people take the reigns and be in control of our conditioning. Ni’ve vidita la rezulton de tio kaj la flankaj efikoj de ?i. Ni surmetas’t prenas perdojn facile, De fora. So we’re back on pace. We have the same team around us that have been here from the beginning of my career all the way up until now. Ni havis la saman teaman vojan #malanta?o en #movi?o. Ni’re prete, Ni’re koncentrita, Ni’re determinita, Ni’re veturita kaj ni’re nur rigardanta doni bonan rezulton.

Q

#?u vi vidas Gonzalez kiel multe pli bone batalanto ol Lomachenko, #A? eble iom de pli minacata batalanto ol Lomachenko #a? simila? Kiel vi stakigas supre la du titolaj posedantoj?

G. Russell Jr.

Ili’re du tre malsamaj batalantoj. Lomachenko has a little bit more hand speed than Jhonny Gonzalez. Gonzalez is more of a puncher. Jhonny Gonzalez is more of a dangerous fighter than Lomachenko just because of his punching ability and just him being a seasoned professional, being able to get all these rounds in as a professional. Lomachenko definitely is a good fighter. We take every fight serious. Vi prenas neniun por donita. Ni sendube diris, Oh, #Tio ?i estas #dan?era batala enspezo kun Jhonny Gonzalez, Sed ni sentas kiel tamen kion ni alportas al la tablo estos supera en la fino.

Q

Kio specife faris vin fari malsame prepari por Lomachenko ke vi deziras vin hadn’t?

G. Russell, Jr.

We brought someone in for our strength and conditioning. We’ve known our strength and conditioning was completely different. Even when it came to the way that we cut weight, it was different. Leading up to the fight, Ni estis en #sa?no por la pasinta du, maybe three days leading all the way up into the fight. That’s what my strength and conditioning coach wanted me to do.

Iu ajn kiu’s vidita ke batalo, #?U ?i estis Lomachenko #a? iu ajn alia, they’ve seen the difference in my punching ability, my endurance, my speed, just me as a person. People knew that that wasn’t the Gary Russell, Jr. that they’d seen the previous 24 fights.And that was some of the things that came up in the Lomachenko fight. I was completely tired and fatigued in the first round, Vi scias?

Q

About Jhonny Gonzalezhe obviously is a guy who is a volume puncher, he’s not afraid to stand in and trade. Kiel faras #?i tiu batalan laboron al via #avanta?o se li faras batali tipan Gonzalez batalo en via menso?

G. Russell, Jr.

Mi surmetas’t pensas ke li’s iranta esti kapabla trakti, #Ankora? foje, my speed. I think we’ll be able to do it with my speed. He’s always been slow in the speed. Even though he’s been a puncher, a lot of punchers have to really sit to actually apply these punches efficiently. I think he lacks the ring generalship as far as the footwork goes that he would need — La piedo quickness. Kaj multa liaj pafoj estas malgrandaj #lar?a. Tiel, I’ll esti proksimume al outpunch li kaj esti kapabla pugni lin inter liaj pafoj.

Q

Kio vi pensis de la decido en la Lomachenko batalo?

G. Russell Jr.

I didn’t think anything of it. The only thing that registered in my mind was the fact that I didn’t have the ability to perform the way that I normally would have. I never really looked at a decision. I never looked at how the referee was going about the fight or any of these things. The only thing that came to my mind was the fact that I just lost my first professional fight, Kaj mi ordigas de vidis la kialon kial mi perdis — ?i estis #?ar mi wasn’t kapabla fari kion ?i estis ke mi normale faras.

Q

Tiel, Vi sentas ke vi perdis la batalon tiam?

G. Russell Jr.

Certainly. I’d definitely say that I lost the fight.

Q

Vi #tu?i sur Al Haymon #anta?e. Povas vin klarigas kion lia efiko estas en via kariero? And we’ve all seen the moves that he’s been making. How is that gonna help you moving forward?

G. Russell, Jr.

Mi sentas kiel tamen la fajregon estas sub #?i tiu #mana?ero kaj varbantoj. Tie’s teama peno. Vi’ll esti kapabla diri vian #mana?ero #a? vian varbanton, ‘Hey, #Tio ?i estas mia luda plano, this is what it is that I want to accomplish this year.I wanted to at least be able to contend for a world title. I want to have maybe four fights this year, Eble ses bataloj #?i tiu jaro, Ktp. Via #mana?ero kaj varbanto, where they come in at, they should be able to meet you halfway with their game plan. If you want to have six fights within a year, ktp, your manager and promoter should be able to get it done for you. We feel as though that Al Haymon is very efficient in doing exactly what it is that we want from him. It’s about who you know, I guess.

Q

Heading into this fight, do you feel like you have to give a certain quality of fight to really make fans relate to you and make you a household name? Now that there’s so many platforms for boxing, #?u vi sentas #?ati tie’s plia premo meti sur ekscita batalo, #A? #?u vi sentas #?ati vin povas #ankora? nur, Methodically skatolo kaj akiraj fervoruloj de tio?

G. Russell Jr.

Mi honeste surmetas’t sentas kiel tamen ke ni devi fari ion ajn ekstere de la ordinara. Vi’re iranta vidi la tipan Gary Russell, Jr. KE vi’ve vidita la #anta?a 24 Bataloj — Mana rapido, Pugnanta kapablecon, Sonoradi generalship kaj ktp. ,Multaj batalantoj akiras kaptita supre en la propagando, Kaj ili sentas kiel tamen ilin devi fari aferojn malgranda plio gajni la fervorulojn super, Ktp. That’s never one of my things. I’m always to be exciting without being reckless. And I’m going to do what it is that I’m comfortable doing.

K. Swanson

Bone, Gary, dankoni vin tiel por estanta havebla alrespondi tiujn demandojn, kaj ni #?ati vin prenanta la tempon ekstere de via okupata tago, Kaj ni rigardas #anta?en al vidanta vin batali #?i tiu sabaton, Marto 28, #?E la Perlo #?e la Palma Kazina Feriejo en Las Vegas kaj viva sur SHOWTIME #?AMPIONECO BOKSO.
