The event also featured Mayweather Promotions’ fighters Jean Carlos Torres, Dorian Khan Jr., Jalil Hackett dan Micky Scala, who will compete in separate non-televised bouts on Sunday, Bulan Juni 6. Here is what the fighters had to say Tuesday from the Mayweather Boxing Club:

JACK Badou

“Floyd called me in January last year and told me the rematch was on for April. That was last year. It’s been done since we walked out of the ring the first time, but I’m happy it’s finally done. I’m happy it’s here and I’m ready to put on a show.

“I’m trying to perfect everything in preparation for this matchup. Better nutrition. Better conditioning. Better sparring. I’m trying to be better at everything.

“This is my second fight with my new trainer Johnathan Banks. The first was just a tune-up fight. It wasn’t a high-level fight. It was an eight-rounder, so it was just like a sparring session. But I’m in way better shape than I was in the last camp and I’m ready to go.

“My fight is going to be a hell of a fight. Everybody knows that. It was a Fight of the Year contender last time. Floyd vs. Logan is going to be entertainment. That’s a different kind of fight, but Floyd is going to put on a show. All of the eyeballs are going to be on that night so it’s going to be a great night.

“Pascal likes trying to get under my skin, but I’m too calm. I’m too confident for that. Pada akhir hari, he’s a veteran, I’m a veteran and it’s going to be a great fight night.

“I thought I won the first fight. 75 percent of everybody that watched the fight thought I won. There was only one judge that had experience, Julie Lederman, and she had me winning. The other two might have scored his so-called punches but it is what it is.

“Johnathan Banks is my new coach. He’s great. He’s only a year older than me so we have great chemistry together and everything has been working great. It was a little hard in the beginning to adjust to certain things, but now in camp I feel great in sparring and everything we’re doing right now.”

LUIS ARIAS

“It feels amazing to be involved in this event. For a fighter like me who’s been up and down, who was undefeated at one point and then lost it all, went from being one of the best to being overlooked, to be able to fight my way through and to be able to keep fighting and keep working to get back on this big stage is truly a blessing. Saya senang. Saya diberkati. I can’t wait to get on that stage.

“Boxing is my life and I had to make the necessary changes to get back to this level. I’ve already been to the highest level and I fell short. I got the experience of being there, I know what I need to do to get there and I made those necessary changes. It’s one of the reasons I came back to Vegas, to start training over here to get that experience, to get to that level and to get better. That’s what I’ve been doing and that’s why I’ve been able to prove that I still belong. Floyd saw it. I sparred Floyd. He sees that I still got it and I’m making the changes. He sees how my body is changing and he sees that I can still compete.”

JEAN CARLOS TORRES

“I’m very happy to be on this card. I am going to give the best fight that I can for all my fans. I’m going to do the best that I can.”

DORIAN KHAN JR.

“It feels good to be a part of this event. I’m just getting ready for my fight and focusing on that, but it’s a good opportunity so I’m ready.”

JALIL HACKETT

“It’s amazing to sign with Floyd Mayweather and be a part of this event. Ini mimpi yang menjadi kenyataan. I’ve worked so hard since I was eight years old and I’m finally here getting the fruits of my labor.”

MICKY SCALA

“It feels great to be part of the biggest event probably in boxing history. I’m super excited. My family and friends are super excited. We have a lot of fans that are excited and I can’t wait to put on a show. I’m very thankful to Mayweather Promotions for getting me on this card and giving me this opportunity. I’m going to make the best of it.

“That fight before the pandemic at Sam’s Town was a big motivation for me during the down time to stay ready because I knew another fight was going to come soon. My family was a big part of that motivation. I want to make sure that they can live however they want to, so I’m working hard every single day. I’ve been ready to fight since the day the pandemic started until now. I can’t wait to put on a show in Miami.”

LEONARD Ellerbe, CEO MAYWEATHER PROMOTIONS

“We have two hot events coming up. We have the Floyd event with him taking on Logan Paul. Tremendous undercard from top to bottom. We have all my pro debut guys. I call them my starting five. And then we have Chad Ochocinco who is going to be fighting in an exhibition. Everybody is dying to see that. And then we have former unified champion Jarrett Hurd taking on Mayweather Promotions’ own Luis Arias. I think that will be a tremendous fight. Those guys will be looking to steal the show in a 10-round bout. Dalam acara co-main, we have none other than Pascal vs. Dongkrak. That will be a war. Their first fight was a Fight of the Year and I expect nothing different. The fans are really in for a treat with that fight.

“We were just waiting for the right opportunity to make the Pascal vs. Jack rematch. This is a tremendous platform. It’s a huge event and it’s the type of platform that these two guys deserve, to be seen on a global situation around the world.

“My starting five is filled with top-tier talent. I know talent when I see it. Each and every one of these guys I’ve had a great look at up close and personal and I was beyond impressed. Floyd was also. All of them have big futures.

“Floyd Mayweather vs. Logan Paul is entertainment. Floyd is an entertainer. Logan Paul is an entertainer. One thing about the Paul brothers is they’ve shown they can have an impact on anything that they do. I’ve been very impressed with both of those guys, especially Logan. I call him the king of the internet. One thing about both of them is that they’ve been extremely consistent at what they’ve been doing. I’m not going to stand here and pretend that these guys are ready for championship fights because they’re not, but they work extremely hard and they’re very good at what they do.”

HOUSTON – May 18, 2021 - Unbeaten WBC Middleweight World Champion Jermall Charlo and hard-hitting 160-pound contender Juan Macias Montiel met face-to-face for the first time Tuesday during a kick-off press conference as they preview the main event of a special Juneteenth Day celebration in Charlo’s hometown of Houston Saturday, Bulan Juni 19 at Toyota Center headlining a Premier Boxing Champions event live on SHOWTIME.

Charlo has established himself as a force in two divisions and will seek to thrill his hometown crowd against Mexico’s Montiel in a first-of-its-kind Juneteenth Day boxing celebration. Charlo akan bertarung di Houston untuk keempat kalinya sebagai seorang profesional dan berusaha mempertahankan rekor tak terkalahkannya melawan Montiel yang sedang kesal..

SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING akan dimulai pukul 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT dan menampilkan pesaing ringan yang sedang naik daun Isaac Cruz berjuang mantan juara dunia Francisco Vargas dalam acara pendukung utama 10 putaran. Memulai siaran, Mantan juara dunia Angelo Leo kembali untuk menghadapi penantang Meksiko Aaron Alameda dalam 10 putaran yang super bantam pertarungan.

Here is what Charlo, Montiel and their trainers had to say Tuesday:

Charlo JERMALL:

“Bulan Juni 19, itu akan menjadi kembang api. A parade. A celebration. Me and Ronnie Shields get a chance to do it again. Saya bekerja keras. I was working hard before I even knew who Montiel was. Kali ini, you get a chance to see all the hard work I’ve put in for so many years. It’s a dream come true to be able to fight in my city and I get a chance to do it with a crowd. Tune in and get your tickets because it’s going to be a great night of boxing.

“There’s no better day to fight than Juneteenth. It’s a celebration for me and my people and I get to represent them and carry them on my back. To be able to do it for my city right here at the Toyota Center – it’s going to be an amazing night of boxing.

“Montiel is fearless. He’s a fighter that I think deserves a chance. At this point, he understands where he’s at. Ini adalah pertarungan besar. A lot of people may not know who Montiel is, just like I didn’t, but he’s a strong fighter. The people want to see me get tested, yang tepat? I want to see those big fights, terlalu. In a matter of time, they’ll come. But Montiel should be a good fight.

“I’m going to whoop his ass. He doesn’t stand a chance. They’re all confident. I got the belt. The belt ain’t going nowhere. Toyota Center, get ready. It’s going to be fireworks June 19. He can be as confident as he wants, but when we get in there he’s going to have to figure it out.

“I’m ready to fight the best in the world. I’m the best in the world and I’m not going to let this guy over here stop me. The belt is not going nowhere. The belt is staying right here in ‘H Town.’ There’s nothing he could do about it. Nothing. It’s my belt. It’s my legacy. You’ll find out June 19.

“A fighter like Montiel is challenging to go in there and get the job done real clean and swiftly because if I look bad against a guy like this, they’ll take away from what I did in the Derevyanchenko fight. Tapi, iya nih, to date, Derevyanchenko was one of my hardest fights, but I made nice work of it and onto the next one.

“I got the belt. Champions fight champions. We unify. Tapi jika tidak, we’re not just going to sit back. Those guys that have the belt like Triple G, Canelo and Andrade – the belts are out there so eventually it will happen. I’m not in a rush. Saya masih muda. I’m still having fun. I’m enjoying what I do best.

“If Triple G wants this WBC belt, I have it. It’s over here, it’s open. I’m ready to fight.”

JUAN MACÍAS MONTIEL:

“We are focused on preparing as well as possible. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity and we are taking it as such with a lot of dedication and discipline. We are ready to put on a great show on June 19.

“This is the fight I always dreamed of. I am all about challenging myself and fighting against the best of the best. I have been training hard and I believe in myself. I will be ready to come out and win.

“We’re fighting in Houston because I don’t think that I’m in a position to choose or dictate anything right now. I will fight anywhere in order to make my dream of becoming a champion come true. If we have to fight on the moon, then let’s fight on the moon.

“I believe that power is the great equalizer, a legit advantage in boxing, since it can change the fortunes of any fighter inside the ring. I consider my power an advantage in my favor.

“I have fought and prepared so hard for the opportunity to go and get this championship belt. I have done things the right way, there is no reason for things to go wrong. As I said previously, I am not in a position to choose where to fight. I just have to keep training hard like I have since I was four years old.

“I’m happy that there will be fans in the stands. Saya tidak merasakan tekanan apa pun, because it’s all about Latin pride and support and that motivates me.

“I think Charlo is a great fighter, super talented and the world champion for a reason. I have been preparing my whole life for this.

“I don’t think that all Mexicans just go on attack mode by default, you also have to be smart and think things through depending on how the fight goes.”

Ronnie SHIELDS, CHARLO’S TRAINER:

“Jermall Charlo has worked his butt off in the gym and he continues to do that. To defend your title in your backyard, in your hometown, that’s a very special thing. Not only is it going to be special because of that, it’s going to be special because Juneteenth is a very special day for all African Americans in the state of Texas. We’re looking forward to a great fight. Montiel is a really great fighter and we know we can’t underestimate anybody. We’re going to be in the best condition we’ve ever been in every time we fight and we’re going to continue to do that. We’re looking forward to having everybody come out for this great celebration.

“I think a lot of people were surprised how easily Jermall beat Sergey Derevyanchenko. He was the No. 1 juara harapan. He was the mandatory defense. He gave Triple G problems. He gave Danny Jacobs problems. And Jermall beat him.”

EDUARDO MONTIEL, MONTIEL’S TRAINER:

“Training camp is an ongoing process. Things are going swimmingly, just like we wanted them to. We are very happy and so glad people have welcomed us here in Houston with open arms.

“I’m hoping for Montiel to be in his best physical, mental and emotional shape to come out with a win on June 19. Our biggest advantage right now is that we are already settled in here in the United States, free of the distractions and temptations we might have back home in Mexico.

“I think that a victory of this magnitude would make Montiel the face of Mexican boxing, rubbing elbows with the Canelos of the world. Life would change overnight for him.”

DOUG HALL, GENERAL MANAGER, TOYOTA CENTER:

“We welcome SHOWTIME and our friends from Premier Boxing Champions back to Toyota Center. We have a great history of hosting combat sports in this fine arena. We’re really excited about what Jermall Charlo and Juan Macías Montiel are going to bring to the Toyota Center on June 19. Tiket yang dijual sekarang di toyotacenter.com and we are looking forward to a great night as we bring back live events to this market. We can do it successfully and safely and we want to see everybody come and see a great championship boxing match.”

Ellis akan mencari untuk memenangkan medali Olimpiade ringan wanita pertama Tim USA.

“Kualifikasi ke Olimpiade telah menjadi salah satu impian terdalam saya,” sebut Ellis. “Saya tidak pernah meragukan kemampuan saya. Saya telah berhenti takut pada apa yang bisa salah dan mulai bersemangat tentang apa yang bisa berjalan dengan benar. Jadi, Saya menerima kesalahan saya dan belajar darinya, karena kesalahan saya telah membantu saya meningkatkan dan mencapai Olimpiade. Saya tidak melakukannya dengan mudah; Saya membuat sesuatu terjadi. Kerja keras dan dedikasi dengan usaha dan tekad, Saya bisa berhasil.”

Fuchs akan mewakili Tim USA di divisi flyweight (112 pon/51 kg). Petinju berusia 33 tahun ini akan berusaha untuk mendapatkan medali kedua dari USA Boxing di divisi flyweight wanita sejak diperkenalkannya acara tersebut di London 2012.

Saya siap mewakili negara saya dengan cara yang paling terhormat dan membawa pulang emas!"

Jones akan masuk ke ring di salah satu dari dua kelas berat wanita yang baru ditambahkan, welter yang (152 pon/69 kg) divisi. Jones, yang membuat sejarah di 2019 dengan penampilan medali emasnya di Pan American Games, akan terus membuat sejarah dengan menjadi peraih medali emas Olimpiade pertama di divisi beratnya.

Johnson adalah petinju Amerika unggulan ketiga dan 19th secara keseluruhan.

“Perjuanganku adalah garis-garisku, dan saya memakainya di punggung saya, sehingga orang-orang di sekitar saya dapat melihatnya bahkan ketika Anda tinggal di hutan, kamu masih bisa mengejar mimpimu,” kata Johnson. “Saya tidak hanya melakukan ini untuk kota saya, tapi untuk dua pelatih saya, Dante Benyamin Sr. dan Clint Martin, yang saya hilangkan selama perjalanan saya ke Game ini.”

Torrezo, kelas berat super peringkat tertinggi (201+ lbs./91+ kg) petinju dari Amerika dan 11th secara keseluruhan, mendapatkan tempatnya melalui penampilannya di tempat ketiga di 2019 Pan American Games dan posisi lima teratas di Kejuaraan Dunia Elite Pria tahun itu. Torrezo, mantan peraih medali perunggu Kejuaraan Dunia Pemuda, akan menjadi petinju Amerika pertama yang berkompetisi di kelas berat ini sejak 2012.

“Semua orang senang mereka pergi ke Olimpiade, itu impian semua orang, tapi aku harus ada,” kata Torrez. “Api yang ditanamkan dalam diriku bahkan sebelum aku bisa berjalan, yang mendorong saya untuk menjadi yang terbaik, api yang telah ada di keluarga saya selama beberapa generasi, telah meluap. Itu telah membakar semua pilihan kedua saya, dan itu telah membuat abu kemungkinan lain selain kesuksesan.”

Tim USA akan dipandu oleh Pelatih Kepala Nasional Tinju USA Billy Walsh selama Olimpiade ini.

“Ini adalah berita fantastis bagi enam petinju kami yang telah bekerja tanpa henti selama lima tahun terakhir untuk menjadi seorang Olympian,"Walsh berbagi. “Kami sekarang fokus pada tahap proses selanjutnya, menjadi Juara Olimpiade.”
