Voici ce que les participants à la conférence de presse ont à dire Mardi:

 

Floyd Mayweather

 

“Tout le monde sait que je n'ai jamais reculé devant personne. Tu les alignes, et je les renverse comme des quilles. SurAoût 26, Je mets KO Conor.

 

“je te le garantis. Vous sortez sur le visage ou sur le dos. Alors dans quel sens veux-tu aller?

 

“Vingt et un est le nombre. Ils me demandent pourquoi est-ce le nombre? Parce que c'est depuis combien de temps je botte le cul. Je me fiche d'un anneau ou d'un octogone. Mettez-moi là-dedans et je vais botter le cul.

 

“Il faut deux guerriers pour organiser un événement comme celui-ci ensemble. Les deux plus grandes forces des sports de combat ont rendu cela possible.

 

“C'était quelque chose que les fans voulaient voir. J'ai parlé à mon équipe et j'ai dit que le combat Mayweather-McGregor peut être le plus grand combat de l'histoire. C'est ce que nous sommes ici pour transformer en réalité.

 

“McGregor est un professionnel, combattant debout. La seule perte qu'il a subie a été lorsqu'il était au sol. C'est un compétiteur coriace et je le prends très au sérieux.

 

“Tout le monde sait que je fais ça depuis longtemps. I’ve been here before. C'est un gars dur et un guerrier. Le meilleur doit combattre le meilleur. Les fans voulaient ce combat, moi et McGregor voulions le combat. ça va être du sang, sueur et larmes surAoût 26.

 

“Le camp d'entraînement a été rude. Je sais au fond de mon coeur que c'est le dernier. Je prends soin de mon corps et me donne du temps pour permettre à mon corps de se ressourcer.

 

“Conor veut vraiment gagner. Extrêmement mal. D'autres combattants, cela se joue généralement de deux manières. Certains gars jouent la sécurité et puis certains comme Marcos Maidana vont tuer. Je pense qu'il est du type Maidana. C'est un gros frappeur donc je dois être prudent. Ce sera essentiellement une bataille de bout en bout.”

 

CONOR MCGREGOR

 

“Je suis épaté. Je suis absolument honoré d'être ici devant vous fans pour ce grand spectacle. Quelqu'un est 0 doit y aller.

 

“Il a de petites jambes et de petites mains. Je vais l'assommer en quatre rounds. écoutez-moi bien.

 

“Je suis un jeune, sur de soi, Homme heureux. J'ai travaillé extrêmement dur pour cela. je vais tout embrasser. Personne ne peut rien me faire. je vais passer un bon moment.

 

“Floyd sera inconscient en quatre rounds. Le pouvoir et la férocité que j'ai, il n'en a jamais fait l'expérience. je ne le crains pas.

 

“Même s'il attrape un de mes coups avec son gant, ça va encore lui faire mal. Je ne ressemble à rien qu'il ait jamais vu auparavant.

 

“Douze, des tours de trois minutes vont être un jeu d'enfant pour moi. Ne rien enlever à ce sport, mais je n'ai pas de soucis à faire douze rounds avec Floyd.

 

“Floyd est la motivation parfaite pour moi d'entrer et de conquérir le soi-disant invincible. De quoi de plus de motivation pourriez-vous avoir besoin? Cela me pousse à faire ces événements records.”

 

LEONARD Ellerbe, PDG de Promotions Mayweather

 

“C'est un grand combat que les fans ont exigé. C'est exactement ce que nous allons leur donner Août 26.

 

“Floyd Mayweather est l'invaincu, roi livre pour livre et le meilleur de tous les temps. Il est là pour donner aux fans ce qu'ils voulaient et c'est son énorme événement un combat mémorable sur Août 26.

 

“Mayweather Promotions consiste à donner aux fans exactement ce qu'ils veulent, et cette bataille entre Floyd et Conor va livrer tout cela et bien plus encore.

 

“C'est l'événement à ne pas manquer de l'été et cette foule au STAPLES Center prouve à quel point il va être grand. Toute cette semaine, nous apporterons toute l'excitation d'une semaine de combat dans des salles à guichets fermés à travers le monde.”

 

STEPHEN ESPINOZA, Vice-président exécutif & Directeur Général, Sports Showtime

 

“Au cours des dernières années, SHOWTIME s'est associé à MGM et Mayweather Promotions pour offrir aux fans les événements sportifs les plus importants et les plus excitants.. Événement record après événement record. Nous avons également une longue histoire de MMA dans SHOWTIME et sommes heureux d'être en affaires avec UFC et Conor McGregor.

Nous vous ferons découvrir les coulisses et de près avec le “All Access” série. Votre laissez-passer dans les coulisses de ce combat sera diffusé en avant-première le Juillet 28 sur Showtime.

 

“Ils ont dit que ce combat ne pourrait jamais être fait, ils ont dit que ce combat n'aurait jamais lieu, mais ce combat n'est pas une surprise. 10 il y a des années, Floyd a décidé de quitter son promoteur et de devenir son propre patron. Il est devenu son propre patron et a battu record PPV après record PPV. Nous voilà, 49-0, il s'est battu 24 champions du monde, et jamais perdu. Floyd Mayweather a généré 20 millions d'achats de PPV et 1.3 milliards de dollars en PPV. Il est de loin l'attraction numéro un dans le sport et le divertissement. Il n'y a personne d'autre qui soit même proche.

 

“Suis-je surpris que ce combat se produise? Surtout contre quelqu'un de plus jeune, plus grand et plus fort que lui. Pas du tout. C'est le plan de Floyd. Organiser les événements les plus excitants et les plus spectaculaires que le monde du sport ait jamais vus. C'est ce queAoût 26 sera. C'est le plan depuis le début. ”

 

DANA BLANC, Président de l'UFC

 

“C'est le plus grand combat auquel aucun d'entre nous n'a jamais participé. Les gens viennent de se rallier derrière ce combat. Ne jugez pas un combat tant que le combat n'est pas terminé. Vous ne savez jamais ce qui va se passer, surtout avec un gars comme Conor qui tape comme un camion. Quand il blesse quelqu'un, il les range.

 

“C'est un événement complètement complet aujourd'hui, il ne reste plus de place. Nous avons dû déménager dans une salle plus grande à Toronto. Le Barclays Center est épuisé, puis les billets d'aujourd'hui sont épuisés à Wembley en 10 procès-verbal. Il n'y a jamais rien eu de tel.

 

“Floyd est presque 41 ans. Conor est un jeune gaucher qui frappe fort. On verra comment ça se passe. C'est fou de penser que Conor ne se connectera pas avec lui.

 

“Conor McGregor croit en lui comme personne que j'aie jamais vu auparavant. Ce qu'il pense, il se manifeste dans la réalité. Les médias de boxe apprendront à connaître Conor lors de cette tournée et verront la guerre mentale dans laquelle il se livre. Puis la nuit du combat, Conor va essayer d'assommer Floyd.”

 

RICHARD STORM, Président des Sports et Loisirs, MGM Resorts International

“Merci à tous les grands fans de combat du monde entier qui ont regardé cet événement. Nous sommes ravis que cet événement se déroule au T-Mobile Arena, la maison des plus grands événements de l'industrie du sport et du divertissement. Dans seulement 15 mois, la T-Mobile Arena est devenue un leader de l'industrie et abrite nombre des plus grands artistes et athlètes du monde.

Ça va être un week-end absolument électrique. Nous sommes impatients d'offrir une expérience inoubliable à tous les fans qui voyagent du monde entier pour ce grand événement.”

The event will be produced and distributed live by SHOWTIME PPV and promoted by Mayweather Promotions.
A 12-time world champion in five weight classes, the 40-year-old Mayweather retired undefeated in September 2015 as one of the greatest to ever step in the ring, buoyed by box office success that saw him shatter nearly all of the revenue records in the sport’s history. Maintenant, he returns to challenge the bold, powerful and popular McGregor, whose elite striking skills put him in the record books as the first athlete to hold two UFC titles simultaneously, all while soaring to the mantle of the sport’s No. 1 PPV attraction at only 28 ans.
Mayweather and McGregor will meet in a super welterweight contest (154-limite de livre), serving as the first time champions from boxing and MMA will meet in a sanctioned boxing match.
“There was only one name that could bring me out of retirement and that’s Conor McGregor,” Saïd Mayweather. “I’m excited to give the fans what they’ve all been asking for. I always want to do something different and groundbreaking and this fight with Conor is that perfect opportunity. Il est un jeune, skilled and powerful guy who I’m not going to take for granted. I expect to come out victorious, but anything can happen in the ring. This is a must-see event live or on pay-per-view on August 26. The whole world will be watching Mayweather vs. McGregor.”
“This is a historic fight and will be the greatest spectacle in combat sports history,” said McGregor. “I am about to change the entire approach to fighting as it stands today. SurAoût 26 Je vais choquer le monde. Again.”
The SHOWTIME PPV on-air team will call the action on the telecast beginning live at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT. The telecast also will be available in Spanish using secondary audio programming (SAP).
Leonard Ellerbe, PDG de Promotions Mayweather, dit, “Floyd has been a trailblazer his whole career and this event proves that he is still the marquee name in the fight game. This is the kind of event that Floyd Mayweather and Mayweather Promotions are known for and we’re proud to bring this exciting night of action right to the fans. We know that Conor McGregor is a dangerous fighter who believes 100 percent that he is going to win this fight. I’m expecting to see as sharp a Floyd as always and I anticipate him doing what he always does, going in there and winning. You will not want to miss this once-in-a-generation showdown on Août 26 in Las Vegas and live on SHOWTIME PPV.”
Stephen Espinoza, Vice-président exécutif et directeur général, Sports Showtime, dit, “We are proud to reunite with Floyd Mayweather, Mayweather Promotions and the MGM Grand to deliver this unprecedented global event. Never before, in the vast experience of SHOWTIME PPV which includes worldwide events featuring record-setting events with Mike Tyson, Julio Cesar Chavez and Floyd Mayweather, have we experienced a reaction like we have to Mayweather vs. McGregor. Both Floyd and Conor are trend-setting personalities who have transcended their respective sports. They carry unmatched reputations for spectacle and athleticism, and together they create a truly can’t-miss event.”
Dana White, President of UFC said, “My goal has always been to put on the greatest fights the world has ever seen, whether they take place inside an Octagon or a boxing ring. Floyd Mayweather is one of the best fighters of all-time but he has never faced someone like Conor McGregor. Throughout his UFC career, Conor has proven that he should never be underestimated and I believe this will be no different. Sur August 26th, we will see the biggest fight in history. The world will be watching to see if Conor can follow through on another promise and make history once more. No matter the outcome, this will be a historic night in sports and we are honored to give the fans what they have been asking for.”
Richard Sturm, president of entertainment and sports for MGM Resorts International, dit, “It is an honor to have the opportunity to host the Floyd Mayweather vs. Conor McGregor fight at T-Mobile Arena, our industry’s leading venue for major sports and entertainment. Las Vegas is known for its summer heat but nothing will be hotter than this championship event on August 26.”
L'un des combattants les plus décorés de l'histoire du sport, Mayweather, de Grand Rapids, Michigan, and fighting out of Las Vegas, used his trademark speed, defensive prowess and ring generalship on his way to 24 triumphs over world champions during his illustrious career. Among those 24 victories are the biggest names in the sport, past and present, including Manny Pacquiao, Oscar De La Hoya, Miguel Cotto, Canelo Alvarez, Shane Mosley, Juan Manuel Marquez, Zab Judah and Arturo Gatti.
En plus de ses réalisations sur le ring, Forbes, Fortune et Sports Illustrated have all named Mayweather the world’s highest paid athlete multiple times. Ses événements amassent nombres records; he has headlined four of the six highest-grossing pay-per-view events of all-time and holds the all-time record in gross pay-per-view receipts. Le sien 2015 showdown with Pacquaio shattered the all-time pay-per-view television record with 4.6 million buys while the event grossed a staggering total of more than $600 million.
Mayweather, the only fighter to have headlined three events that each generated more than 2 million pay-per-view buys, a suscité de nombreuses “Fighter de l'année” récompenses au cours de sa carrière légendaire, y compris cinq ESPY Awards et deux boxe Writers Association of America récompenses.
Representing his hometown of Dublin, Irlande, McGregor’s larger than life personality and devastating power have helped him become his sport’s No. 1 attraction. He became the first MMA fighter to crack Forbes highest-paid athlete list in 2016 and was even higher on the list in 2017.
He became the undisputed UFC featherweight world champion by delivering pinpoint left handed shots that quickly ended the nights of top fighters Jose Aldo and Chad Mendes. McGregor then moved up in weight for a pair of blockbuster matchups with Nate Diaz that saw him set a new mark for UFC pay-per-view buys when he defeated Diaz in the rematch last August.
After dispatching Diaz, McGregor set his sights on history as he headlined at Madison Square Garden against lightweight champion Eddie Alvarez. McGregor put on a striking clinic against Alvarez knocking him down five times before getting the second round knockout and adding the lightweight title to his featherweight world title, becoming the first UFC fighter to ever hold two belts concurrently.

Joining the featherweight (145 livres) division for “Combate Clásico” is undefeated Venezuelan finisher Alberto Montes (3-0). Fighting out of the MMA Masters gym in Miami, the 23-year-old prospect locks horns with 30-year-old Combate Americas veteran Jonathan Quiroz (2-2) de Long Beach, Californie.

Grizzled veteran Irvin “The Beast” Rivera (5-3), best known for his thrilling, back-and-forth wars with Jose “Ghost” Ceja, looks to get back to his winning ways at the expense of prolific bantamweight wrestler Chino Duran (8-9), who makes his return to Combate Americas after a torrid run on the Florida MMA circuit.

Rounding out the newest additions to “Combate Clásico” is 24-year-old Joey “El Cazador” Ruquet (4-1), coming off consecutive wins in La Jaula and ready to make a run at the top of the bantamweight division by tangling with Florida’s own Vinney “The Instigator” Pantaleon (1-1).
