Here’s what the fighters had to say on Thursday:
Erislandy Lara
“Em Oct.14, I will show why I’m the No. 1 fighter in the division.
Just another day at work; another day at the office for me. I have to do what I have to do and be a smart boxer to win this fight. I’m going to have to show a little bit of everything: show my boxing, and show my power. He will see a little bit of everything no sábado noite.
Absolutely I want to unify. É pra isso que eu estou aqui – to win all the belts. Depois dessa luta, hopefully one of these young guns will step up to the plate and fight me.
I will show everybody I’m the best in the 154-pound division, and I’m here for a long time. It’s very important to bring this world title back to the people of Houston. There’s been a lot of tragedy in Houston, and I hope with this win it brings just a little bit of joy to my fans and people going through a hard time.
TERRELL Gausha
This is going to be my best performance to date and I look to be sharp and focused. I love the competition and the tough challenges, and I look to be at point no sábado noite.
It’s time for the young guys and Olympians like me, Errol Spence and Rau’Shee Warren to take over. It’s our time.
I’ve got a huge support system in Cleveland and my mom has a busload of people coming to see me. To have fans like that come and support you makes you want to dig down deep and get that win.
Jermell Charlo
We had a strong camp with my sparring partners in Dallas. We know who’s below us. This young guy here [Lubin] has a big fight coming up. I already know what I have to do. They got to be the ones that try and figure out a game plan. Try and come up with a ‘Plan Bor ‘Plan A.You got a lot of hype man, a lot of people around you buzzing. They keep you going, they keep you rowdy. That’s good. We clap too, we love it. We enjoy it. Mas Sábado noite, the fight that I thought should have been the main event of the card is going to be the one that steals the show. We did this before, we will do it again.
I’m undefeated, he’s undefeated. Regardless of if he has the same amount of fights that I have, ele está com fome. He’s been running his mouth a lot lately. That has a lot to do with the reason why my team gets rowdy. We get rowdy and that’s the kind of energy we feed off of. When you continue to do what you do, I just got to back it up in the ring and I can’t worry about what my opponent says and what his team says, because nobody has to fight but us.
Let’s get in there and get comfortable in the ring. Hopefully I make him pay for the mistakes he’s making right now.
It’s so important for me to bring a world title back to Houston. I told my brother [Jermall] that I’m competing with one of his knockouts against an undefeated fighter. It’s not about the world title because my city needs it. My family needs it. My son loves it. Portanto, I’ve got my life on the line.
ERICKSON LUBIN
“Estou muito animado. Estou muito confiante, I had a great training camp and I’m just ready to go no sábado.
I hear it a lot, that I’m younger and he’s more experienced. It doesn’t really get to me, I know it is a huge step up because I’m fighting for the WBC title, not because of my opponent. I’ve seen everything in the ring. I’ve seen all types of fighters through training, fighting and through amateurs so this is definitely a big step up when it comes to me fighting for the WBC title.
This definitely should have been the main event, but you got an experienced guy like Lara in the main event, which I don’t complain about. I know I got to go in there and take care of business. We’re both young. I’m not even in my prime yet. I’m ready to capture this title and I’m hungrier than ever and I know he’s hungry. He’s fairly young and we’re both undefeated and we both have a huge entourage. We’re just backed up by a lot of people and we got hype behind us. We’re ready to see who’s the hype and who’s the real deal.
Orlando hasn’t had a champion in a very long time, or maybe never. This means everything. I’ll be a big, huge inspiration to Orlando. I am already a huge inspiration to Orlando. I can’t wait to bring it back to Orlando to give more people hope to go out there and do something positive.
JARRETT HURD
“Eu me sinto ótimo. I’m right on weight. Como eu disse, this is the fight I’ve been waiting for and that I’ve wanted, so I’m ready to fight.
I really want to go out here and make a statement and be the first to stop Austin Trout and send him into retirement.
“Aqui está a coisa, in my last four televised fights I’ve never possessed the same style. Austin Trout doesn’t know what style I’m coming out with in this fight. I never look the same in any of my fights so he can say that he prepared for a toe-to-toe matchup and that he prepared for me moving around, but he doesn’t know what I’m bringing to the table. I’ve got a couple tricks up my sleeve.
“[My height] is going to be a big factor because he’s going to try and move around and box from the outside, but I’m the taller, longer guy. So it’s going to be hard for him to stay on the outside, let alone stay on the inside, which he isn’t going to want to do either because I’m the bigger guy. It’s going to play a big factor and make it more difficult than he thinks.
They say it’s easier to become a champion than to defend a belt. Right now this is my chance to defend my title and bring it back home. I can’t wait to represent.
AUSTN TROUT
“Quando eu me tornar campeão no sábado night I will continue to represent this game with class and dignity. I know this sounds like a campaign speech, but the beautiful part about it is that I don’t need your votes. I don’t need anyone to vote me in. I get to go in there and take it with my two hands. I have the faith that I can do it, but we all know faith without works is dead. But I’ve put in the work. So I have faith in the work behind me. My experience is just the icing on top to go in there and become the two-time world champion and stake the claim as the best 154-pounder in this game.
“Honestamente, I didn’t see a big frame up there, I just saw a tall guy. His shoulders look lean and his arms look lean. Either he’s sucking down for weight, or he’s just a little guy in a big, tall man’s body.
He’s right in saying the fight isn’t going to go the distance, but it’s funny because he’s not going to be the one doing the knocking out. You know this man isn’t going to last 12 rounds.
I’m going to drown this kid. We’re taking him into deep waters. He’s never been there. This is unchartered territory for him.
Two-time Trout. Eu gosto disso. I need that belt in order to solidify my legacy.
LOU DiBELLA, CEO of DiBella Entertainment
This is as good as it gets in boxing. We hope to have as many regular boxing fans in that room as we possibly can. You can get a great seat for the price of what you pay for a Pay-Per-View telecast. This quality of boxing has been emblematic of SHOWTIME’s boxing program in the last few years.
STEPHEN ESPINOZA, Executive Vice President/General Manager of SHOWTIME Sports
This event will be the 25th boxing event at Barclays Center em cinco anos. I need to recognize Barclays Center and their staff because there are not that many venues supporting and contributing to this sport the way Barclays Center is. More than half of those shows have been on SHOWTIME as we’ve done 12, and two have been on CBS.
We’ve set a very high bar with those events. Fighters know and promoters knoweveryone knows that when you fight on SHOWTIME at Barclays Center it’s a big and exciting night in boxing.
Fight fans sometimes complain that having multiple belts or multiple champions is complicated and confusing. But in this division, não é. I’ll make it really simple: these guys up here are the best guys in the division. É isso aí. Who’s at No. 1 and who’s the best? I can’t tell you. But it’s one of these six guys. So this próximo sábado you will see the best in the division, and they’ll be fighting each other.

A.J. MCKEE REPLACES INJURED JAMES GALLAGHER IN BELLATOR 187 MAIN EVENT, MEETS IRELAND’S BRIAN MOORE ON FRIDAY, Novembro. 10 AT 3ARENA IN DUBLIN

 

TAMBÉM, SBG’S SINEAD ‘KO’ KAVANAGH AND KEVIN ‘BABY SLICE’ FERGUSON JR. BOTH SET TO COMPETE ON THE CARD

JEREMIAH LABIANO NOW TAKES ON ISRAEL’S NOAD LAHAT IN BELLATOR’S RETURN TO TEL AVIV AT Bellator 188

LOS ANGELES – Bellator MMA is set for its return to Dublin, Irlanda, as undefeated sensation A.J. McKee (9-0) will look to play the role of spoiler against Brian Moore (10-5), a teammate of James Gallagher at Dublin’s SBG, in the featherweight main event of Bellator 187: McKee vs. Moore at 3Arena on Novembro. 10.

 

In addition to the new main event, Irlanda do Sinead Kavanagh (4-2) lutará Maria Casanova (2-4-1) in a women’s featherweight main card bout, enquanto Kevin “Baby Slice” Ferguson Jr. (1-1) will compete against Fred Freeman (1-0) numa 165 pound-catchweight contest.

 

James Gallagher was initially slated to headline against Jeremiah Monaghan, but was forced to withdraw from the card after suffering an injury during training, leaving room for his divisional rival to headline an event in hostile territory. Moore’s previously scheduled opponent, Andre Goncalves (3-1), will now face Northern Ireland’s Decky Dalton (7-3) numa Bellator 187 featherweight matchup.

 

Bellator 187: McKee vs. Moore will be broadcast free on SPIKE at 9 p.m. E/ 8 p.m. CT. Tickets for the event are on sale now and currently available at Ticketmaster.ie.

 

Labiano will now move to Bellator 188: Pitbull vs. Weichel 2 one week later em telavive, where he is set to take on Israel-born Noad Lahat (11-3) in a main card featherweight bout. Bellator 188 takes place inside Menora Mivtachim Arena and airs on SPIKE at 9 p.m. E/ 8 p.m. CT em Novembro. 17.

 

O filho do respeitado veterano do MMA Antonio McKee, A.J. McKee passou toda a sua infância na academia absorvendo cada pedaço de conhecimento e experiência disponível para ele. The 22-year-old prodigy has applied that knowledge inside the Bellator cage and has made quite a statement in his first nine fights as an MMA professional, racking up seven finishes in nine outings. The Long Beach, Calif.-native now heads to Ireland, a country that is all too familiar with “Mercenary” due to his feud with Gallagher.

 

Known around “The Emerald Isle” as “Pikeman,” Brian Moore will be making his third appearance in the Bellator cage and his first main event. Having previously competed against top-rated competition the likes of Daniel Weichel and Mike Wilkinson, the 30-year-old SBG Ireland standout most recently stopped Michal Horejsi via punches at Bellator 177 abril passado. Moore grew up 90 minutes from 3Arena and will undoubtedly have home field advantage against McKee on Novembro. 10.

 

Fresh off his first-round TKO finish of D.J. Griffin, em Bellator 179 em Londres, the son of the legendary Kimbo Slice will return to Europe in search of his second victory as professional. Also training under the tutelage of Antonio McKee at Team Bodyshop in Long Beach, Calif., Slice is one of the main sparring partners for A.J. McKee, Aaron Pico e Joey Davis. Lutando fora de St. Louis, Fred Freeman made his professional debut in March, finishing his opponent with punches in the second round of their regional matchup. Before turning pro, Freeman laced up the gloves nine times as an amateur.

 

Set for her fourth Bellator appearance, Sinead Kavanagh returns to the site of her promotional debut, a venue that saw her defeat Elina Kallionidou with a decisive victory at Bellator 169. A three-time veteran of BAMMA, “KO” most recently took on Arlene Blencowe, who now fights Julia Benefício for the women’s featherweight title. A native of France, Maria Casanova has competed professionally since 2015. With two submission victories on her resume, the KTP Scola-product will look to hand Kavanagh the first submission loss of her career.

Vinnie “Pesadelo americano” caixas de Carita em sua própria maneira original

Outubro 28 em Worcester, MA
WORCESTER, Massa. (Outubro 12, 2017) – Uma vez batido Vinnie “Sonho americano” Carita está se preparando de uma forma totalmente diferente de todos os outros lutadores em outubro 28th “New England Futuro 4” cartão, a quarta e última 2017 parcela da série de boxe profissional populares, “Futuro da Nova Inglaterra”, a ser realizada no Centro de DCU (Hall de exibição) em Worcester, Massachusetts.
“Futuro 4 do New England” é apresentado por Rivera Promoções Entretenimento (RPE), que é de propriedade e operados por aposentou três vezes, dois divisão campeão mundial Jose Antonio Rivera e seu filho, Anthonee (A.J.) Rivera.
“Estou feliz de ter um dedicado, boxer hard-trabalhando como Vinnie Carita liderando o nosso evento de boxe no Sábado, 28 de outubro no Centro DCU,” promotor José Antonio Rivera disse. “Ele é um exemplo perfeito de por que meu filho, A.J., e eu comecei RPE. Queremos ser capazes de ajudar boxers crescer suas carreiras e criar uma plataforma para elas para obter oportunidades maiores e melhores.”
Um ex-WBU americanos e IBU norte-americano campeão cruiserweight,Carita (16-1-1, 15 KOs) vai assumir boliviano campeão dos pesos pesados Saul “A Murderer Fenjx” Faraff (64-23-3, 56 KOs) no evento principal oito-redonda.
Carita, lutando fora de Pembroke (MA), vai subir de peso mais uma vez para lutar contra outro adversário estrangeiro. No mundo do boxe, não só luta Carita, ele é seu próprio promotor, manager, treinador e matchmaker. Do lado de fora do anel de, Carita é um oficial de justiça em tempo integral em Brockton (MA), bem como uma empresa de segurança a tempo parcial para o Departamento de Defesa (DOD).
Embora seu incrivelmente ocupado folhas programação pouco, caso existam, centro para relaxar, Carita prospera porque ele é tão dedicado, disciplinado e conduzido. Ele começa todos os dias às 4 a.m., correr ou fazer cardio exercício, trabalha o seu trabalho do dia, e atinge o ginásio para treinar entre 9-10 p.m. em uma base regular para uma luta marcada. Quando ele tinha algum tempo livre para viajar, Vinne foi para Nova Iorque, Filadélfia e até Montreal para sparring qualidade.
Ele começou o boxe aos sete, quando ele entrou em uma academia, e capturou um título Sudeste Regionais Golden Glove, mas, em 14, única caixa esporadicamente, até que ele se tornou profissional com 20. “Eu definitivamente tenho uma paixão por boxe,” a 32-year-old confessou. “Eu sou um fanático de boxe. Se eu não estou treinando, Eu estou vendo lutas, ao vivo ou na televisão. É o meu amor. Boxe sempre será parte de mim e quando eu finalmente pendurar minhas luvas, Eu quero ser um árbitro, por isso ainda pode estar no anel, e ter o melhor assento. Eu não quero julgar. caras maiores duram mais do que os lutadores menores. Eu quero continuar fazendo isso até por trinta e tantos anos, talvez quarenta anos.
“Eu caí no amor com a divisão cruiserweight quando vi o (Vassily) Jirov-(James) Toney luta (no Foxwoods Resort Casino, em Connecticut). A divisão cruiserweight é quente agora com o Boxing Super World Series (EAPs). (Oleksandr) Usyk poderia ganhar o torneio, unificando todos os quatro principais cinturões, e em seguida mover-se para pesado. Isso poderia ser bom para mim se eu era um dos combates oito para uma das quatro vagas (principal) títulos. Eu vou olhar para as lutas certas, até então,, contra caras que estiveram ao redor e talvez competiu pela mundiais ou regionais títulos, como o meu próximo adversário (Faraff), quem é o campeão dos pesos pesados ​​WBC Latino.”
Carita, que ocasionalmente é forçado a lutar como um peso pesado como ele vai contra Faraff, ainda vai pesar em torno de 200-205 libras. Ele anda em torno de 208 e normalmente pesa 194-196 para suas lutas Cruiserweight. “Eu não tenho planos para competir como um peso pesado,” ele disse. “Lutei alguns pesos pesados ​​e parece melhor para mim para ir à distância, ou parada, caras muito maiores do que eu. Eu tento pegar os caras certos para avançar minha carreira.”
Por que tem Carita lutado tantos adversários de países de todo o mundo? Networking. Seu trabalho com o DOD, antes que ele começou a trabalhar como oficial de justiça, encontrou-o a viajar pelo mundo. Onde quer que fosse – África do Sul, Dubai, Irlanda do Norte, etc. – ele trabalhou no academias de boxe e fez conexões inestimáveis, estabelecer relações de trabalho com muitos gerentes e casamenteiros que ele permaneceu em contato com toda a sua carreira no boxe profissional.
Porque ele treina-se, Carita tem apenas uma pessoa normal trabalhando seu canto, Pittsfield (MA) oficial de justiça John Felix, que ele conheceu quando eram instrutores de broca na academia. Carita adiciona um cut-homem por sua luta, mas ele tende a manter as coisas magra e média, mesmo em seu canto.
Ninguém sabe melhor ou aprecia mais o promotor José Antonio Rivera realizado quando ele foi campeão mundial trabalhando em tempo integral como um oficial de justiça em Worcester.
“Para trabalhar em tempo integral, criar crianças, treinar para ser um lutador de classe mundial e se tornar campeão do mundo três vezes fala volumes sobre Jose,” Carita comentou. “Agora, ele está promovendo e colocando caras como eu em seus shows.”
“Eu entendo perfeitamente o quão difícil e exigente sua agenda está trabalhando em um emprego em tempo integral como um oficial de justiça e treinar para tentar atingir seus objetivos de lutando e vencendo campeonato mundial,” Rivera acrescentou. “Estou contente Vinnie escolheu para dar RPE uma oportunidade de ser capaz de ajudá-lo a chegar mais perto de alcançar seu sonho.”

Cohen Predicting Brant Will Achieve a ‘Changing of the GuardAgainst Former Champ Braehmer on October 27

Greg Cohen, promoter of middleweight/super middleweight contender Rob Brant, says his undefeated fighter is headed for achanging of the guardfight against Juergen Braehmer.
Ganso-bravo (22-0, 15 KOs) and Braehmer (48-3, 35 KOs) will meet on Friday October 27, at the Kongresshalle in Schwerin, Alemanha, as part of the World Boxing Super Seriessuper middleweight division.
The 38-year-old Braehmer is a long-time light heavyweight world champion, who hasn’t fought at super middleweight in a decade. A star in his native Germany, where the fight is taking place, Braehmer seems to be on the tail end of a distinguished career.
27-year-old Brant, from Saint Paul, Minnesota, is the dark horse in this tournament. With comparatively much fewer professional titles and accomplishments thus far in his career, Brant would seem to be taking a huge risk with his undefeated career.
Não é assim, says Cohen.
We think Robert Brant is going to win this whole tournament,” disse Cohen. “You have the perfect ‘changing of the guardtype of fight here: an undefeated young buck against an aging former champion.
Mas, says Cohen, there are some hidden factors at play in this fight.
Braehmer is coming down in weight for the fist time in eight or nine years and hasn’t fought since losing his title via TKO stoppage late last year. Entrementes, Rob has shown constant improvement in each of his fights over the past few years. He’s a world-class fighter on the verge of becoming a household name.
So confident was Team Brant that Cohen says they have no problem going into the old lion’s den to fight.

Rob doesn’t care where they fight. He knows he’s got too much for Braehmer. This fight will be his FORMAL introduction to the boxing world. He’s in top shape and ready for anything coming his way. Depois dessa luta, Rob Brant will no longer be the secret wild card of the tournament. He’s going to win the whole thing.

We’ve recognized that Deontay’s opponent has changed, and we’ve restructured ticket prices to encourage as many fans as possible to attend a great night of fights, and the Heavyweight Championship of the world,” said Lou DiBella of DiBella Entertainment, the promoter of the card. “Stiverne is thrilled for this second chance and he has nothing to lose. Bermane Stiverne is the only opponent that Deontay hasn’t knocked out among his professional opponents. Deontay wants to fix that and Stiverne is looking to throw a wrench into Wilder’s dream of heavyweight unification.
Wilder (38-0, 37 KOs) dethroned defending champion Stiverne in January 2015 via unanimous decision in what was the promising challenger’s toughest fight to date. Com a vitória, Wilder became the first American heavyweight champion in nearly a decade and he has gone on to defend the title five times. Stiverne (25-2-1, 21 KOs) remains the only Wilder opponent to go the distance with the hard-hitting Tuscaloosa, Ala., native who has knocked out every other professional opponent on his long resume.
Dominic Breazeale (18-1, 16 KOs), who lives in Eastvale, Califórnia, is coming off a KO victory over Izu Ugonoh on Fevereiro. 25. The 32-year-old Breazeale suffered the only loss of career in a heavyweight championship match against Anthony Joshua in London on June 25, 2016.
Eric Molina (26-4, 19 KOs) has twice fought for the heavyweight world championship. In his first title shot the 35-year-old from Weslaco, Texas was knocked out by Deontay Wilder on June 13, 2015. Molina lost via TKO to Anthony Joshua in his next opportunity on Dec. 10, 2016. Molina bounced back with a majority decision victory against Jamal Woods in his last fight on Sete. 2.
Five-division world champion Amanda Serrano (33-1-1, 25 KOs) will be making her fourth appearance at Barclays Center when she defends her super bantamweight world title against Marilyn Hernandez (26-10, 17 KOs). Serrano, who was born in Puerto Rico and lives in Brooklyn, successfully defended her title with a TKO victory over Edina Kiss in her last fight on Julho 21. Hernandez of Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic scored a TKO victory over Maria Hernandez in her last fight on Jan. 10.

Here is what the fighters had to say Wednesday in Santa Monica:
CHRIS AVALOS
I’ve had a lot of experience with Leo when we were growing up. We really know each other inside and out. It’s going to be a non-stop war. I know that he won’t let up and I’ll never give an inch.
This has been a really great camp. I feel really strong and fresh and ready for a 12-round battleno sábado.
I’m going to try to use my familiarity with Leo to my advantage. Obviously we’ve both grown up, but it definitely gives me some extra confidence.
It’s very important that I put on a good performance Sábado. A lot of people have written me off and it’s my job to just prove them all wrong.
“Vai ser uma luta muito boa. It’s going to be action from start to finish. I’ve been on this kind of platform before so my nerves are all calmed. I’m just really excited to get in the ring.
ANDRES GUTIERREZ
Everything has gone really smoothly in training camp. eu sinto 100 percent physically and I’m ready to fight.
I’m going to have to come forward and fight strong for 12 rounds against Abner Mares. I have to use my power punches and attack the entire fight.
I’m very happy and motivated heading into this fight. I’m eager to get a chance at a title for the first time.
The fans are going to love my style. I come forward and throw punches. Fans appreciate that and I want to give them a memorable performance.
“Vai ser uma guerra. I’m not giving an inch and at the end of the night, I will have both hands in the air and a belt around my waist.
não será uma luta fácil
It feels good to be on this platform. This is just the start for me. All the top guys have been in my position and they took advantage of their opportunities. I have to put on a great show to lead up to these two title fights.
Training camp has been really good. We worked hard every day and I’m ready to fight. I just can’t wait.
DeMarco is a crafty veteran. I need to be strong and smart. It’s all going to come down to me being the better overall fighter.
I’m ready to do anything in the ring. If I have to box, I’ll do that. If I need to brawl, I’ll do that. We’ll see how the fight goes but I’ll be prepared to adjust and do what it takes to get the win.
I’ve tried to make myself a smarter fighter in the last year. I have to work smarter. That’s really going to let me unlock the rest of my potential.
If I’m able to get a stoppage, I’m going to jump on it. I’m prepared to be the more intelligent fighter and use my brain to get the win.
Antonio DeMarco
I came back to the ring because I am 100 percent mentally ready to compete. Any issues that I had in the past are gone. Mais importante, my sister has beaten cancer and she said that if she can come back, then so can I.
I feel really strong right now. I came back with the team that made me world champion and it’s got me very motivated to enter the ring and give the fans a beautiful fight no sábado.
I have no fear of any opponent. I have the normal nervous energy leading up to the fight, but I have been in this situation before and faced a lot of great fighters.
Ramirez is a young, strong opponent. He’s undefeated and I know that he’s going to be motivated to keep his perfect record. I’m ready to do whatever it takes to get the win.
IVAN REDKACH
It’s been a very tough training camp. I’m in excellent shape from working in the gym with Leo Santa Cruz for about three months. I’m excited to make my debut at 140-pounds.
It had been too hard to cut weight for lightweight. It was draining all of my strength. I’m going to have a lot more power and show a lot more of my game on Outubro 14.
I’ve trained sparring partners of every kind. I also did some work in Jorge Linarescamp leading up to his fight. I’ve been testing myself every day to get better.
Being in the gym with Leo gives me lots of motivation. He also helps me with all of the technical parts of my game. He stays on top of me and has helped me get better.
EIMANTAS STANIONIS
Working with Freddie Roach has been amazing. He’s shown me so many new things and I’m really blessed to be in this position.
I just had a fight three weeks ago so I’m excited to get back in the ring. I’ve stayed in shape the whole time, which is what I want to do. I’m always mentally prepared to step in the ring as well as physically.
It’s a great motivation to be on a big card like this. I can’t wait to perform in front of these fans and show them my skills.
My style is like a Mexican-style. I like to put pressure on my opponent and throw punches. I can do it all in the ring and I can’t wait to show off all of it.

Brooklyn native 2016 Haiti olímpico Richardson Hitchinswill fight in a four-round welterweight bout. Brooklyn de Julian Sosa will enter the ring for a six-round welterweight attraction and George Arias of the Bronx will be fighting an eight-round heavyweight bout.
Here’s what the fighters had to say on Wednesday:
Erislandy Lara
I know that Gausha is a young undefeated Olympian who’s coming to take my title. But I don’t need to worry about him. I’ve got to worry about what I’m bringing into this fight.
I don’t choose my fights, but I’m going to clean out the whole 154-pound division. There are a lot of young fighters now, but I’m going to just clean it out and show that I’m the best here. The Canelo rematch is there. The Golovkin fight is out there. I have unfinished business that has to be settled. Canelo knows who the true winner of our fight was, and he doesn’t want to do that fight again.
There’s been a lot of catastrophes in the world lately in Houston, Puerto Rico and Florida. I’m fortunate that it only affected my training for three days so I was able to stay focused. I stayed at my house and I kept training.
I would love to move up to 160 and Canelo and Golovkin are the top guys. Mas 154 is much deeper. Those are the two guys we want, but if we can’t get them then we have to stay at 154 and clean it out, like I said. There are just better fights at 154.
If you look at Canelo’s record there are three marks. There’s Mayweather, me and Golovkin. Great fighters fix the wrongs on their record, and Canelo and his team will have to do that sooner or later.
I don’t know what [Gausha] does well. Eu sei no sábado he’s going to have to show me something or he’ll be in trouble. After six rounds, I will be totally dominating. Just like I’ve done in all my fights.
TERRELL Gausha
I’m real confident that I walk away with the world title. I’m blessed as well as happy that [esta luta] is happening. It’s been a long time coming. Hard work pays off.
I have an interesting fighting style, I really can’t put my finger on it. I can make adjustments and I have that will to win, that hunger.
“[Being a top amateur] gives me a lot of confidence because there are a lot of styles that I’ve dealt with. There’s nothing that I haven’t really seen before. Having that experience, going to the Olympics, having all those people watching me, a pressão – I’m made for the bright lights.
“[Lara] has a lot of experience. He’s crafty. I haven’t been in camp with the type of fighters he’s been in there with. That pressureI use it to my advantage. Quando eu ganhar, it’s going to be a big notch for me to show that I’m at the top of my division.
He’s the champion so I know that he knows what he’s up against. I feel like he’s trained real well. I’m looking for the best Erislandy Lara come fight night because I trained hard and I’m ready.
“[Subindo para 160] is definitely a possibility because I’m not a little 154-pounder. It’s taken a lot of sacrifices to make this weight but I did it right this time. I’m not struggling with the weight. Primeiro, I’m going to take care of 154.
Being two-time National Champ, going to the Olympics, fighting overseas, the pressure that came with making the Olympic team just built me for this moment.
This is not the first time that I’ve been the underdog. I know how to handle those situations. It’s not about what they think. It’s about what I know I can do. Of course they’re going to think that [he’s the favorite] because he’s been in there with guys like Paul Williams and Canelo [Alvarez]. I just haven’t had my chance to display my skills at that level yet, but I’m here now.
I’ve had a lot of fights, I can’t even count how many. I’ve been doing this since the age of 10. I look forward to these big fights. A lot of guys you fight don’t have the name, but Erislandy Lara has the name and the credentials. I’m looking forward to beating him come Sábado noite.”
Jermell Charlo
It’s always great to fight at Barclays Center, but it’s just another arena and stepping stone for me.
This fight is going to do a lot for boxing, and this fight does a lot for this 154-pound division. There’s just so many positive things coming from this fight card, and hopefully everyone will come out and support it.
I’m the champion of the world and I’m trying to get the fights that I want. I’ve been avoided and a lot of fighters have been ducking me. There’s nothing we can do about that. This is a living for me, but it’s also a hobby and something that I love.
I own a home in Houston and California. My area wasn’t too jacked up [by the flooding]. And now you’ve got the wildfires in California. My prayers go out to all those affected. But it has brought Houston together, and we’re getting support from the NFL and NBA guys. And boxing has come together to help too.
None of the flooding affected my training camp because I train out of town. We had some trees knocked down, but that’s the least of my worries right now.
I think my fight is the one the people want to see [on the card]. My opponent is a young stud and he comes to win a world title. Is Lubin the best fighter I’ve faced? Eu sou 29-0 and I’ve fought a lot of great fighters. You can’t talk about what’s on paper and what’s not.
My style is unique in the ring and so is his. He has a high volume of punches, but that’s what we trained for. He’s expecting fireworks, I’m expecting explosions. So just don’t be surprised.
ERICKSON LUBIN
In these types of situations, I feel like I’ve got to keep my composure. There are a lot of cameras, a lot of lights, but I was born to do this. I’m keeping my composure but I’m going to let it all out Sábado noite.
We’re both going to go in there fully prepared. It’s all about who wants it more. I feel like there’s nobody in this division who wants it more than me. Just because he’s been sparring Errol Spence, that doesn’t mean a thing.
All my previous fights against the veterans and experienced fighters have prepared me for this one. I know how to adjust. I always come ready to fight. I always come with fireworks. I’m definitely going to get my respect early.
My ability to adjust in the ring is definitely going to give [Charlo] problems. He probably thinks that I’m going to go in there and just box or maybe just bang. I can definitely mix it up and that’s going to give him a problem no sábado noite.
“[Charlo] moves pretty well but I don’t feel like that’s going to harm me. I trained for everything this camp. I’m ready to box. I’m ready to bang. I’m ready for any situation that he brings to me. I’m just ready to become the WBC Champion.
JARRETT HURD
I think this fight is more of a mind game than about physical strength.
This is a display of the top 154-pounders in the world. I asked for this fight because in order to be the best you have to beat the best. I feel like Austin Trout, even with three losses, is the top competition. A win would mean everything. I want to show that I’m much better than the others he’s fought.
This is my second time fighting in New York and everyone always shows me the love here, so it’s an honor.
I’ve always rooted for Austin in his fights, but this is business now. Não é nada pessoal, it’s just that he’s in the way right now.
I’m the taller fighter, I’m the longer fighter, and I’m the strongest fighter. I’m also the younger fighter, so those advantages will definitely be the keys Sábado noite.
He uses his jab well and he throws a great left to the body. He uses the ring well and he’s a veteran and he knows how to survive. He’s a crafty fighter, and knows how to win the rounds. But I don’t think that will be a factor because we are expecting it.
I’m coming to open the show and all the fans should expect fireworks.
AUSTN TROUT
I’m smarter than [Hurd], and I’m better than him. What else can he do? He’s no smarter or better than me. I have better footwork, better speed, better placement of shots. The only thing he has is his size, and he overpowers the smaller guys. But I’m not small. I’m just as strong, if not stronger than Hurd.
The fans can expect fireworks until my man goes down. I don’t think he can take my pressure for 10 ou 12 rounds. I expect my arm to be raised in great fashion.
People have been overlooking me my whole career. Before I was just fighting to get noticed, then I got noticed. Now I’m fighting for respect. But I’m not worried about that.
I’ve done more after winning the belt than he’s done just getting the belt. No doubt I’m the best. There’s just no doubt the cream will rise to the top Sábado noite. Once I clean up at 154 libras, there’s nowhere to go but north.
There’s been no talk about what’s next and if the winners [no sábado] will fight the winners, but I don’t see why not. My goal is to get a belt Sábado noite, and then get the rest of them.
CINDY SERRANO
This is my first time fighting at Barclays and I’m honored to be fighting on such a prestigious stage.
I’ve been fighting for 15 years and when I started there were no females fighting. But I’m impressed with some of the women fighters out here now. There are some young ones that I hope stay around for a while because there is incentive and the pay will be there. So I’ll just keep on going after it until my time is up.
JULIAN SOSA
I’ve seen a few of his fights online. He’s a traditional Mexican fighter, so he brings a lot of pressure and a lot of angled shots to the head, to the body and uses his uppercut. I haven’t seen a lot of straight punches from him. That’s more my style. I’m more of a counter-puncher, boxer-puncher. When I’m in the ring with him I’ll see what he has, as far as his speed and his power.
My father was a former boxer and he’s been training me since day one. He’s always been by my side and he’s my role model and just so glad we get to share this moment together.
It’s surreal that this is my fourth time fighting at Barclays Center. It’s still shocking and humbling knowing that I can fight in big venues like this.
RICHARDSON HITCHINS
I know I’m young, but I think once I move up to six rounds my competition will step up. It’s a great card and I think Lara will win, and Lubin all the way. I see the Trout-Hurd fight as 50-50, but I would lean toward Hurd.
I don’t know anything about my opponent. In the amateurs all you know is the city. You’re fighting a guy from Philadelphia. Or a guy from Vegas. And how you fight is all based on where he’s from. Like if you fight a guy from [Califórnia] then he’s going to put on pressure. So I’ll be quick to adapt, and it doesn’t really matter who the guy is or what he brings.
I’m ready to start building my legacy.
GEORGE ARIAS
I’ve put in the work and I’m hoping the results are the same from my last few fights. I’ll be ready to exchange and do what I need to do to get the win.
I know my opponent has a good jab and he has a lot of experience and he’s strong. They could throw me in there with someone 0-70 and I’d give the same intensity as someone undefeated. Every fighter I face is a world champion in my eyes.
I predict a second round knockout. I’m always looking for the knockout, at least early on.

EDMONTON, Canadá (Outubro 11, 2017)An All-British battle is on tap neste sábado as World Boxing Super Series (EAPs) tournament action continues when World Boxing Association (WBA) Super World Super Middleweight Champion “Santo” George Groves makes his first title defense against undefeated challenger Jamie Cox, airing live in Canada exclusively on Super Channel from Wembley Arena in London, Reino Unido.
O “Groves vs. Cox” cartão, a partir de 2 p.m. E / 11 a.m. PT,allows Canadian boxing fans to continue watching all $50-million WBSS tournament action live, exclusively on Canada’s boxing destination network, Super Canal, which acquired the rights in Canada to broadcast the World Boxing Super Series from MP & Silva, uma empresa líder em mídia internacional que fornece direitos de transmissão, digital, serviços de tecnologia e de patrocínio.
(L-R) – George Groves & Jamie Cox
Groves, 29, has an experienced advantage over Cox in terms of quality opponents fought. Em maio passado, Groves stopped Fedor Chudinov in the sixth round to capture the WBA Super World Super Middleweight Championship. In addition to Chudinov, Groves has defeated two other world champions, fellow Brit and Olympic gold medalist James Degale (MDEC12), and Glen Johnson (UDEC12). All three of Grovescareer losses as a professional have been to world champions, twice to fellow Brit Carl Froch, juntamente com Badou Jack.
Experience is very important,” Groves explained. “You don’t understand it until you got it and even when you got it it’s still difficult to understand. I’m sure it will play a part. Cox has boxed at a high level as an amateur but he’s yet to do it as a pro. Let’s see if he can cope. I’m sure he will be well rehearsed in the build-up and well drilled in the gym but putting it together under the spotlight on the biggest stage is always the most difficult task. I’ve been there and done it before, but let’s see if he can.
I’ve still got the hunger. I’ve still nowhere near achieved what I set out to achieve as a little kid. I haven’t won enough belts, I haven’t won enough fights, I haven’t made enough money, and until all those and a few other things are crossed off the bucket list, I’m more-hungry than ever. I finally know what it feels like to be a World Champion and I don’t plan on surrendering that anytime soon. Now I would like the feeling of winning the Muhammad Ali Trophy.
“Ele é (Cox) a competent chap. When I knew him, he had a lot of desire. Although his professional record doesn’t suggest any desire because he’s been a pro longer than me and he still hasn’t been in a real fight. He’s had breaks, he’s had injuries, he’s had personal issues. I’m sure now he decided this is his last crack at the whip as a professional boxer he’s going to try to knuckle down and prepare to the best of his abilities. I’m preparing for the best Jamie Cox. Ele está em forma, ele é forte, ele é agressivo, he’s ballsy, but they are all things I possess as well so I’m sure it will make for a great fight. I certainly feel I have the measure of him and I have a few advantages, which I’m going to reveal on the night.
Cox (24-0, 13 KOs), 31, hasn’t been in nearly as tough as Groves in terms of fighting quality opponents. He is the reigning WBA Continental super middleweight champion, as well as a former WBO European titlist.
It’s an honor to be part of the World Boxing Super Series,” Cox said. “Some great names, some great fights, o melhor combate o melhor, that’s what it should be about with The Muhammad Ali Trophy as the end result. I set my targets high and this is the big one.
I have done it in the gyms with world champions, now it’s time to do it on the big stage. I am looking forward to showcasing myself and show people what I am about and how hard I work in the gym and the dedication I have for the game. “I don’t care about my trophies and what I have achieved so far, the past is irrelevant, I care about the future and the future is now. The goal is to win the Muhammad Ali Trophy. Beating George Groves is the first step and step by step I will reach my goal.
The Groves-Cox winner will advance to the WBSS semifinals to face another Brit, IBO champion Chris “Próxima geração” Eubank Jr., who knocked out previously undefeatedAvni Yildirim in the third round of last Saturday’s quarterfinals fight in Germany.
Seven thrilling matches on theGroves vs, Cox” cartão, promoted by Sauerland Event, will air in Canada exclusively on Super Channel. The Groves vs. Cox 12-round main event is scheduled to start at 6 p.m. E / 3 p.m. PT.
The 10-round co-feature is a WBSS Substitute Fight between British southpaw Banheiro “O Gorilla” Ryder (24-4, 12 KOs) and WBC International super middleweight champion Patrick Neilson (29-1, 14 KOs), of Denmark.
