Tu bolo povedané, čo museli povedať bojovníci a ich príslušné tábory počas štvrtkovej tlačovej konferencie v Intercontinental v spoločnosti The O2:



JAMES DEGALE:

"Uvoľnil som svoj titul pre takéto boje.". Chris Eubank už dlhšie volá moje meno a nakoniec mám šancu udrieť mu päsťou do tváre.



"Nemám pred ním rešpekt.". Žiadne. Tento chlap je zriedený idiot. A v sobotu večer sa už neviem dočkať, kedy to s ním budem riešiť. Prídem mu to poriadne dať. Nemôže škatuľkovať. Všetci sme to už počuli.



"Toto je najväčší boj v jeho kariére.". Je čas odchodu do dôchodku. Kto tento boj prehrá, je hotový. Urobte alebo zomrite v sobotu ... Jeho boj o dôchodok je tu. Je to jeho posledný boj, Sľubujem vám, že.



"Som dokázaný.". Bol som tam, urobil. Vyhral som všetko. Nerobil nič. A idem ho do dôchodku.



"Eubank je tvrdý bojovník.", on je silný. Má veľa dobrých atribútov, ale som na neho príliš dobrý. Aby ste to premiešali a vyšli na samý vrchol, potrebujete viac ako silu a húževnatosť. Zakaždým, keď vystúpil, je stratený.



"Strach zo straty je ten, že viem, čo je na rade.". Toto je urob alebo zomri. Ak ho nemôžem poraziť, ak nemôžem poraziť Chrisa Eubanka ml., Skončil som.



"Mnoho ľudí si myslí, že som videl lepšie dni.". Mnoho ľudí si myslí, že som na ústupe. V minulosti som mal problémy, ale môžem úprimne povedať, že som úplne fit. Som v najlepšej forme, v ktorej som už dlho bol, dlhá doba, fyzicky aj psychicky. Keď mám pocit, že mám pocit, nikto ma nemôže poraziť.



"Ak nemôžem poraziť Chrisa, znamená to, že som zastrelený.", to znamená, že som za kopcom. “



CHRIS EUBANK JR.:

"Tento chlapík je zadok.". Hovorí dobrú hru. Bude to mať dobré, ale na konci dňa budem na neho príliš veľa.



"Obaja sme v štádiu, keď nemôžeme prehrať.". Obaja bojujeme za svoju kariéru. Vie, že ma nezvládne. Pýta sa sám seba, „Môžem prežiť?‘A odpoveď absolútne nie je.



"V tom krúžku nemôže robiť nič, čo by som nezvládol.". Idem mu boxovať hlavu.



"Teraz mám trénera na plný úväzok.". Prvýkrát v kariére, Denne mám trénera zameraného na stratégiu, ktorá ma pripraví na to, čo je James - uhladená južná labka. Preto som si taký istý. Ak chce kandidovať, máme gameplan. Ak chce stáť a hojdať sa, máme gameplan. Na všetko máme plán.



"Dôležité je, že Jamesova kariéra sa skončila za pár dní.". Poslal som mu správu potom, ako podľahol [George] Groves hovoril, že musí držať krok, pretože jedného dňa budeme bojovať. A teraz, keď sme konečne tu, sa mu pozriem do očí a nevidím sebavedomého chlapa.



"Je môj čas.". Očakávam to najlepšie, čo kedy bol, a to ešte nebude stačiť.



"Som bojovník na svetovej úrovni.". Každý v boxerskej hre to vie. Toto je moja príležitosť dokázať, že raz a navždy nastavím rekord a ukážem, že som skutočná dohoda. Viem, že ide o určujúci boj v mojej kariére. Urob to alebo zomri a ja som na to pripravený.



"James vie, čo príde.". Koniec koncov, jeho posledné vystúpenia neboli na úrovni, ale nemyslím si, že rešpektoval svoje [minulosť] oponenti. Rešpektuje ma, a rešpektujem ho, a preto je to skutočný boj.



"Som v hre už dlho, ale toto je pre mňa iba začiatok dlhej cesty.". Toto je môj najväčší boj. Musím vyhrať. Keby som vyhral, Som späť na svetovej scéne. Porážka Jamesa DeGaleho ma pripravuje o titul majstra sveta, čo je celý dôvod, prečo som v tejto hre začal. “





JIM MCDONNELL:

"Existujú rôzne úrovne boxu.". Chris mal dobrú perspektívu, ale nie je na takej úrovni ako James. Zistí, čo je potrebné na to, aby sa stal majstrom sveta. James DeGale je o úroveň vyššie ako Chris Jr..



"Chris môže mať všetku potrebnú energiu, ale nemá schopnosti poraziť Jamesa DeGaleho.".



"Viem, že James nestráca.". James DeGale je pravdepodobne najlepší britský bojovník, akého som vo svojej krajine videl. “





CHRIS EUBANK SR.:

"Videl som vrchol Jamesa a je to opojné.". S Chrisom, nebolo použité všetko, čo som povedal. Možno to bolo počuť, ale neaplikované. To, čo som povedal, funguje. Ja by som nemal 19 šampionát vyhrá, ak nie.



"Nie som o tom presvedčený." [Chris vyhrá] pretože James DeGale má rodokmeň. Byť [Olympijské] Zlatý medailista a bývalý majster sveta je skutočný. Rešpektujem schopnosti človeka. Junior nie.



"Môj syn sa pozerá na fyzickú stránku boxu a.", z fyzického hľadiska, Myslím si, že nie je nikto, kto by s ním vydržal. Ale box nie je iba fyzický - je to aj duchovný, a tam Juniorovi chýba. Neviem, či to má.



"Toto je 50/50 bojovať a prvýkrát som skamenený, aký môže byť výsledok. Som skamenený, že Junior nemusí tento boj vyhrať.



"Toto je múdrosť niekoho, kto tu bol.". Na základe minulých výkonov svojho súpera nikdy nepodceňujete. Každý, kto si myslí, že tento človek je na snímke kvôli minulým vystúpeniam, robí chybu.



"Z fyzického hľadiska.", Junior má navrch. Z duchovného a rodokmeňového hľadiska, James má navrch, a preto je to 50/50 boj.



"Viem, že sa Chris naučil, a pozrime sa, čo sa vyrába.". Môže to byť skvelý zápas. “





Paulie Malignaggi:

"Páčia sa mi naše šance.". Poznám toho chlapa, s ktorým som bol v tábore. Veci, ktoré som videl, mám rád. Tentokrát sú oveľa pozitívnejší.



"Nemôžeš podceniť chlapa ako Eubank.". Vždy príde vyhrať. Ale, bez ohľadu na gameplan, existuje určitá mentalita a môj chlap ju má. Je zlatým medailistom a vie, čo si má v sobotu priniesť.



„James získal dva významné svetové tituly, zlatú olympijskú medailu. Chris má za sebou niekoľko dobrých výhier, ale keď šiel na túto elitnú úroveň, on stratil. Chris je dobrý bojovník, ale túto úroveň odporu neprekonal. “

“Both of these are fantastic matchups because there are championship implications on the line,” said Tom Brown, President of TGB Promotions. “That adds to the motivation for each of the guys stepping into the ring. For Qullin and Truax, they both know what it means to be a world champion and this is their opportunity to return to that status.

The fact that it’s taking place at home in Minnesota is even better because my fans are going to give me a huge advantage. My goal is to get back into title contention and win my second world title.”

BELLATOR SIGNS ‘PITBULL’ BROTHERS TO MULTI-YEAR, MULTI-FIGHT CONTRACT EXTENSIONS

Zanechať komentár

LOS ANGELES – Bellator is proud to announce that both Patricio and Patricky Freire, better known to fans as the infamous “Pitbull Brothers,” will continue to compete inside the Bellator cage after signing exclusive multi-year, multi-fight extensions to remain with the promotion.



Fighting out of Natal, Rio Grande do Norte, Brazília, the brothers have become synonymous with Bellator throughout their prolific careers. Having held titles and established themselves among the elite, there are very few names that appear in the Bellator record books more often than current featherweight champ Patricio Pitbull (28-4) and his older brother Patrickom Pitbull (21-8).




“When I think about the talent on the Bellator roster, the Pitbull brothers are two of the fighters that immediately come to mind,” said Bellator President Scott Coker. “They started early on in their careers here, have climbed to the top of their respective divisions and have come to represent what this promotion is all about. I’m thrilled that we’ll continue to see them compete inside the Bellator cage for our fans around the world for many years to come!"



“There are a lot of people on the Bellator roster I want to put my hands on – the first on the list, I’m fighting on May 11th, so renewing made perfect sense for me,” said Patricio. “I’m happy with the agreement and the plans for the future. Of all the fighters currently active on the promotion, I’m with Bellator the longest and the most successful. I plan to set that bar even higher. Po celé roky, I said ‘I’d become the number one in the world here.’ If anyone still has any doubt, keep an eye on the next chapters.”



Patricky added, “Bellator is growing and so am I. I’m in the best moment of my career and the same can be said of the promotion with the quality of shows, the new TV deals and names under the roster. I’ve set the goal of becoming world champion and setting records. I already am the fighter with most finishes and fights in the organization and I don’t plan to let anyone catch up with me. I have grudges to settle and names to add to my belt. If things line up well, I’m looking at making noise in three weight classes in the near future, so expect the best of me! I’m glad to have reached a new agreement with Bellator and very excited for the new things to come.”



A two-time featherweight champion, Patricio “Pitbull” has competed for the promotion 20 times – winning 16 of those outings – and has successfully defended his belt three times since reclaiming the championship at Bellator 178 proti Daniel Straus. V poslednej dobe, Patricio defeated Emmanuel Sanchez, edging out his opponent via unanimous decision at Bellator 209 in Tel Aviv, Izrael. Having earned a finish in 20 z jeho 28 víťazí ako profesionálny, the reigning champion always brings an exciting style and fans can certainly expect more fireworks as he continues his run in Bellator. Patricio will now move up in weight to challenge current champ Michael Chandler for his lightweight crown in a long-awaited grudge match at Bellator’s return to Allstate Arena in Chicago on May 11.



A perennial lightweight contender since joining Bellator in 2011 na Bellator 36, the 33-year-old Patricky made an immediate impact by emphatically knocking out two true veterans of the sport and eventually competing in two tournament finals. Ďalej, he holds the Bellator record for most fights with 21 and knockout wins with 10, including highlight-reel finishes over Ryan Couture a David Rickels. Avšak, his most impressive run has come as of late, stringing together seven wins in eight bouts and winning his last five against Josh Thomson, Benson Henderson, Derek Fields, roger Huerta a naposledy proti Ryan Scope na Bellator Newcastle Február. 9.

LONDÝN - február 20, 2019 – Undefeated heavyweight Joe Joyce and former heavyweight world champion Bermane Stiverne sounded off at the final press conference on Wednesday for their 12-round showdown that opens a SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING doubleheader this Saturday live on SHOWTIME (3:45 p.m. A / 12:45 p.m. PT) od The O2 v Londýne.



Joyce (7-0, 7 KO), Stiverne (25-3-1, 21 KO) and their respective camps had to be separated as they debated the truth surrounding a 2017 sparring session in Las Vegas. Stiverne was preparing for his November 2017 rematch with WBC Heavyweight World Champion Deontay Wilder while Joyce was readying for his professional debut after a decorated amateur career. Both Joyce and Stiverne promised to erase any doubt surrounding the sparring session this Saturday.



A 2016 Strieborný olympijský medailista, Joyce aims to continue his perfect knockout streak as a professional and inch closer to a world title shot. A former WBC Heavyweight World Champion, Stiverne hopes to prove he’s still a force in the stacked heavyweight division following a disappointing 2017 loss to Wilder.



In the main event of SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING, former two-time super middleweight world champion James DeGale will face-off with former world title challenger and British rival Chris Eubank Jr. in a 12-round grudge match. Veteran broadcaster Brian Custer will host the doubleheader from London with versatile combat sportscaster Mauro Ranallo calling the action ringside alongside Hall of Fame analyst Al Bernstein. Televízny tím zavŕši Tri sieň slávy - Emmy® ocenený reportér Jim Gray, boxerský historik Steve Farhood ako neoficiálny strelec ringu, a svetovo uznávaný ringový hlásateľ Jimmy Lennon ml.



Here’s what the fighters and their camps had to say during Wednesday’s press conference at Intercontinental at The O2.



JOE JOYCE:

“I had a really good camp in Big Bear and I’m ready to go and put a dent on Stiverne on Saturday night.



“Bermane Stiverne, all respect to him, he’s a former WBC Champion. I have a lot of respect for him for taking this fight. It’s the perfect fight right now for my situation. It’s a great stepping stone for my career.



“I’m top five in the WBA at the moment, I’m moving fast. Each fight is getting me closer and closer to the top three names in the heavyweight division. I’m just going to keep on working hard in the gym and if everything goes well I’ll be back training for the next one soon. This year I’m going to make big strides.



“It was four rounds [of sparring] but I think that’s all he could do at that stage. He says he took me to school but I went to university, if you know what I mean. When we sparred in his camp in Las Vegas he was a bit lethargic. I don’t really care, though – they can talk however they want but we’ll see what happens Saturday night.



“I know how good I am and I just need to show all of you guys. I’m happy with Richard [Schaefer] having the faith in me. I’m just going to do my job and show how good I am.



“He’s towards the end of his career. He’s going to want to beat me to get back in the mix, but good luck to him. I’d be happy if I beat him before seventh or eighth round. I’m not going to be Wilder. I won’t beat him in under a round. I’m not there yet, but I will be eventually.



“This is quite a step up for me. I have my eyes set on bigger fights and he is the right step for me. Ak chcete byť úprimný, I was surprised that he accepted the challenge. I think that he believes that a win over me will help him regain his status as a top heavyweight. He won’t beat me.



“He’s going to try to come in and try to take me out early, but he’s not going to be able. I’m ready for him. I’m confident that towards the end of the year my name will be among the top five heavyweights in the world.



“A Wilder fight, that’s a fight to make in the future. That’s a good fight, I like the WBC belt.”



Zlatý pohár:

“It’s good to be back. Cítim sa skvele. I came prepared. We can talk all we want right now but what matters is what happens Saturday night. Som pripravený. My team made sure of that.



“I’m not looking past Joyce. That’s what I have to take care of on Saturday. Som dobre pripravený. We can talk about the future once that business is taken care of.



“There are a lot of stories about our sparring, but it wasn’t anything too interesting. It was a couple, maybe four rounds. Nothing to talk about. I’m not going into this fight based on the sparring we had. I’ve never disrespected this man. I posted a picture and thanked him for the sparring.



“Obviously they are taking this fight based on what happened in the last fight with Wilder and I’m glad. They are underestimating me. We could go back and forth all day but that’s not what matters. What matters is what happens on Saturday at The O2.



“I’m a stumbling block, not a stepping stone.



“I’m glad he thinks I’m here as a gatekeeper or stepping stone. I’m not really worried about that. They didn’t call me last minute – I was already in the gym. However they view me, Som pripravený. I’ll tell you one thing, they didn’t catch me with my pants down. Som pripravený.



“I would have packed it up or hung it up if I wasn’t ready. Ja idem do boja.



“Wilder hit me with a right hand in the rematch and that was it. You’re not going to see the same thing on Saturday. This is the perfect fight for me. They’re taking me too lightly and it’s a mistake.”



ABEL SANCHEZ, Joyce’s Trainer:

“We’ve prepared for the Bermane that fought Chris Arreola.



“These are the types of fights that will prepare us for the elite later this year.



“I wasn’t with Joe when his sparring with Stiverne took place, but if it got a guy like Stiverne heated up, it must have been something.



“We feel he’s ready for the next step. Stiverne is the kind of test we have to go through to move forward with his career.



“Joyce is probably the most decorated fighter in the U.K. He’s smart, very athletic and he’s going to be a force to be reckoned with just like George Foreman was.



“In the heavyweight division one punch can define the outcome of a fight so we are preparing for the guy that fought Deontay Wilder for 12 kolesá, the guy that defeated Arreola.”



CHARLES MOONEY, Stiverne tréner:

“I brought Tony Thompson to fight David Price, which they thought it was an accident and we knocked him out in the second round. They thought it was a fluke and they brought us back again and we stopped him again. I’m not a giant slayer, ale ja som 2-0. I stopped an Olympic bronze medalist and now I’m going to stop a silver medalist. We’re working our way up to gold.



“Joe needs to grow up a bit. He’s not ready for this. We’re going to kick that ass. My opinion, I think he should have waited a little bit. He should have traveled the road instead of trying to leap over the fence. When the bell rings we’ll know.”



RICHARD SCHAEFER, Joyce’s Promoter:

“This card is historic and one of many ITV cards that Al Haymon and the PBC will bring to the U.K. Fanúšikovia.



“DeGale and Eubank is a 50/50 boj, but this fight is going to steal the night. When I saw Stiverne walk into the room I knew that he means business. When Stiverne is in tremendous shape he is a very difficult guy to beat.



“I’m going to make a bold statement – Joe Joyce today is the best heavyweight in the world. By the end of the year, he’ll be heavyweight champion of the world. By next year he’ll be ready to take on Wilder, [Anthony] Joshua and [Tyson] Zúrivosť.



“Joyce is a generational talent. This is going to be a very difficult test. We want to see the best Stiverne because Joe Joyce is going to make a statement.”

Here is what the press conference participants had to say Tuesday:

ERROL SPENCE JR.

“To je sen. This is something that still hasn’t really hit me yet. I try not to get caught up in the moment, but this is my favorite team that I’ve watched since I was sitting on my dad’s lap.

“Every time I see Mikey I get excited and anxious and want to go to the gym and spar. V nedeľu, I sparred 18 rounds because of the whole press conference and face off on Saturday. Looking into Mikey’s eyes, I can see how hungry he is and that’s motivating me.

“Mikey is very difficult because of how me places his punches. He’s always thinking and he has a high ring IQ. But I’ve been clicking on all cylinders. I’m strong mentally and physically and prepared for anything he brings to the table. A win here can definitely catapult me and I’m ready to make it happen.

“Any athlete would love to have their home team supporting them. It just so happens I have the most popular team in the world right here in Dallas. It means a lot because they don’t have to do that. I’m very humbled and it feels great to represent Dallas. I always support my people here.

“Ja som 100 percent prepared and focused on Mikey Garcia. I’m hungry and I’m already on weight. I can’t wait to put on another show. Marec 16, you have to make sure you don’t miss it. It’s going to be a legendary night.”

mikey GARCIA

“This fight deserves a home like this. This fight deserves this type of atmosphere and energy. I was a Cowboys fan myself growing up and now I’m here in their home about to have the biggest fight of my career. It’s unbelievable, but here we are. I’m excited to make this a memorable night. This is history in the making.

“I’m very excited for what’s coming in a few weeks. This is a fight that I really wanted and it’s definitely the biggest challenge of my career. To fight the best welterweight in the division is no easy task. Errol Spence Jr. is going to bring the best out of me.

“I’m sure Errol is getting ready for the biggest fight of his career just like I am. That’s what’s going to make this interesting. That’s the recipe for a tremendous fight. It’s not very common to see two of the pound-for-pound best, still undefeated and fighting each other in their prime.

“We’ve been implementing techniques that will help me improve my speed, explosiveness and reaction time, while also adding a little bit of mass. I think all of that is going to be beneficial to me on fight night. I feel very happy with the results.

“If I don’t take these risks, then I won’t be rewarded. I want to be recognized as one of the greatest and the best of this generation. How can I achieve that if I don’t take these risks? That’s why I’m taking the biggest fight available.”

DERRICK JAMES, Spence Trainer

“I’m very happy to be here. It’s been a really good ride with Errol and myself. This is our 10th year working together and this is a beautiful place for everything to culminate. Mikey is a true fighter and he has a phenomenal trainer in his brother and father. We’re prepared for him and in shape right now. We’re ready to go.”

ROBERT GARCIA, Garcia’s Brother & Tréner

“We’ve had a great training camp and our sparring partners are doing a great job preparing us for a very tough challenge. By the time the fight comes, you’re going to see what Mikey is all about. Everyone who watches this fight is going to enjoy a great night of boxing.”

JERRY JONES, Dallas Cowboys Owner, President and General Manager

“I don’t know if we’ve ever had an event here that has this kind of stature and the combination of two men standing in there on their own, and at the very best stage of their career. This is two champions meeting and that is something very rare for fans.

“When we built this stadium I thought a lot about boxing. The Dallas Cowboys constituency is particularly into boxing. We have a fantastic Mexican and Hispanic fan base and when we have fights at this stadium, there is a great affinity for boxing. When there is a fight of this caliber at this stadium, then we know we’re doing something very special.

“These two fighters are uniquely associated with this stadium and the Cowboys. Errol Spence Jr. literally lives next door and is from this particular area. The last night he had at The Star, he had his Cowboys gear on and made our players and myself so proud.

“Our home away from home, Oxnard, California is where Mikey Garcia used to watch the Cowboys practice. We have a lot of kinship with these two fighters and our fans are in for a tremendous treat.

“These two fighters are worthy of this stadium. Their skill level and ability to compete is worthy of this stadium. This is a special event that will be taking place on March 16.”

TOM BROWN, Prezident TGB Promotions

“Errol Spence Jr. vs Mikey Garcia is one of the most intriguing fights of the year. It’s a fight that will determine who is pound-for-pound the best fighter in the world.

“We’re thrilled to be at the home of the best professional franchise in sports, in the Dallas Cowboys. This is the perfect place for this event that features two unbeaten champions in their primes, putting their records on the line. Mikey and Errol are destined to walk out of that tunnel and into that ring to engage in a battle that will never be forgotten.”
