LAS VEGAS – (April 15, 2015) – Meer dan 200 accredited press members from around the world descended upon Mayweather Boxing Club for Tuesday’s Floyd Mayweather Media Day. It was the 11-time world champion Mayweather’s first and only open training session before his welterweight world championship unification mega-showdown against Manny Pacquiao op Zaterdag, Mei 2, at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas live on pay-per-view.

 

Superstars Mayweather (47-0, 26 KO) en Pacquiao (57-5-2, 38 KO) is promoted by Mayweather Promotions and Top Rank Inc., the live pay-per-view telecast will be co-produced and co-distributed by HBO Pay-Per-View® and SHOWTIME PPV® vanaf9:00 p.m. EN/ 6:00 p.m. PT.

 

Several dozen television camera crews, columnisten, boksen schrijvers, radio-omroepen, web reporters, photographers and (video) bloggers watched as Mayweather went through the paces during a 90-plus minute workout that included working the heavy bag, smacking the speed bag, hitting the mitts, jumping rope, stretching and doing calisthenics.

 

Before a training session streamed in high definition across multiple platforms, inclusief via satelliet-feed, YouTube en social media, Mayweather answered questions from the media inside a specially-constructed tent in a parking lot outside the gym.

 

What Mayweather, Mayweather Promotions CEO Leonard Ellerbe, trainer Floyd Mayweather Sr. and unbeaten WBC Super Bantamweight Champion Leo Santa Cruz, who will fight in the top pay-per-view undercard bout on Mei 2, zei Dinsdag:

 

Floyd Mayweather, 11-Keer wereldkampioen

 

My training camp is basically running the same way. I think it has been smoother than others. I feel very comfortable and happy with my performances. They push me hard at camp. They know what I need.

 

The timing for this fight is right. This fight is about legacy, fans and family. I surround myself with all of the right people.

 

I can’t say that this matchup is about hype. This is real life. This is two future Hall of Famers in a mega-fight.

 

I’ve done record breaking numbers before and it looks like we’re going to do it again.

 

Everything in life is about timing. I have no regrets that this fight didn’t take place five years ago. I didn’t think it was that big then, but it continued to get bigger and bigger. Not just in boxing, but outside of the sport. Pacquiao has continued to grow outside of the sport. We didn’t need to rush anything.

 

This is going to be an exciting fight. Our styles are totally different. He is very, very reckless. Every move I make is calculated. I’m always 5-10 steps ahead of my opponent.

 

We’ll see what happens when the fight starts. But when all is said and done I’m going to be the winner.

 

Pacquiao is strong and solid but I don’t know if he can make adjustments like I can. I feel tremendous.

 

This was a difficult fight to make happen, but we made it happen. This fight is one of the biggest ever in boxing.

 

I’m still going strong. The last time I looked, Ik was 47 en 0.

 

Anyone can get hit with a great shot, but I can make more adjustments and Manny can’t.

 

I don’t think Pacquiao expected me to look as strong or big when we faced off (at the L.A. persconferentie).

 

I walk around at 150-152 pounds to weigh 147 pond. Other boxers weigh around 160-170 before coming down.

 

I’ve got one more fight on my contract. I couldn’t be happier with SHOWTIME and CBS.

 

Las Vegas is the boxing capital. During a Floyd Mayweather fight weekend, you can shop, party, stay out late and do anything you want. The city of Las Vegas has everything.

 

There were offers to fight other places, but MGM Grand is my home.

 

Anything I’ve asked of MGM Grand, they’ve done for me in a heartbeat. They’re all about making entertainers and athletes happy.

 

LEO SANTA CRUZ, WBC Super bantamgewicht wereldkampioen

 

I’m very grateful for the opportunity to fight on such an unbelievably huge card. I really want to thank Floyd Mayweather.

 

Any boxer would like to be on this card where millions of people are watching. I’m happy to represent Mexico on this night and on this fight card.

I look at it as a key opportunity for me to make an even bigger name for myself, which is my goal because one day I want to become a superstar like Floyd. That’s why I train really hard all of the time.

 

There are no little fights for me. I consider every fighter dangerous. You lose when you think a fighter is not on your level and then he comes in hungrier than you. That will never happen to me.

 

I don’t know who I’m fighting yet, but I’m sparring different guys with different styles.

 

There’s always a lot at risk for me. People keep talking about all of these big fights, but if I don’t win now, there will be no big fights in the future.

 

I know who I want to fight, but I don’t pick my opponents; I leave it up to my team. They make those kinds of decisions. My job is to fight and win.

 

I have to stay concentrated. I have to maintain focus and concentration. I can’t get ahead of myself. ik geef 100 percent in training and in the ring. I always want to put on a great fight for the fans.


LEONARD Ellerbe, CEO van Mayweather Promotions

 

Boxing is at an all time high at the moment. There are a lot of great things going on. Between this fight and getting boxing back on network television, it’s all great for the sport.

 

This fight will not only elevate the sport in general, but it will bring in the casual fan to the sport and that’s a great thing.

 

The impact that Floyd Mayweather has had on this sport is immeasurable. People won’t be able to appreciate that until he retires. He’s done so much for this sport. He’s given fighters a platform to say to other promoters that they deserve the lion’s share of the money. He’s brought more sponsorships to the sport.

 

Floyd Mayweather is the highest paid athlete in all of sports and he happens to be a boxer.

 

I think the demand thus far only indicates how big this event is. This is a fight that’s been talked about for five years now and everyone is going to get exactly what they’ve been asking for.

 

Manny Pacquiao is a great fighter. He’s been in a number of great fights and he’s had a terrific career thus far. These are the two best fighters of this generation and come Mei 2 there will be one man standing and it will be Floyd Mayweather.

 

There’s no doubt it’s going to be a great fight. Ik ben echt enthousiast. I can see firsthand the day-to-day preparation that Floyd puts in and he’s working just as hard as ever. The fans are going to get a great fight that night.

 

I don’t know what Manny Pacquiao has to do on Mei 2, but I know what Floyd Mayweather has to do. He has to do what he normally does and go in there and execute his game plan and I really expect Floyd to knock him out.

 

Floyd Mayweather SR., Mayweather’s Trainer & Father

 

Floyd is as well rounded a fighter as there has ever been, but he’s really still here because of his defense.

 

Other guys fight with their head and their mind and come up short. It’s his great defense that has kept him on top for so long.

 

I want you all to see it. It’s so plain and simple what he’s going to do. Even Ray Charles could see it.

 

I honestly never thought that this was going to happen. So many people were trying to say Floyd was scared. Lets see on Mei 2 who is scared.

 

I can’t tell you why or how, but here’s an update, Floyd is going to kick his a** and knock Pacquiao out.

 

I didn’t watch one tape on Pacquiao. There is no reason to study him. He’s not at this level.

 

Floyd is the best, I must confess. Nothing is going to stop Floyd Mayweather.

 

Pacquiao’s trainer Coach Roach (Freddie Roach) is lying to you. Trying to trick you all. Floyd’s not getting knocked down in the gym. Floyd is the one knocking people down. Roach blows smoke with no hope.

GCP Switches it Up in a Big Way!

Tony Luis to Face Derry Matthews for World Championship this Saturday in England; Ismael Barroso now Fighting Ira Terry on CBS in Hinckley, MN Deze vrijdag

Lack of time to obtain proper visas has forced the necessity for two of Greg Cohen Promotions’ (GCP) fighters to switch places on short notice for this weekend.

Op Zaterdag, April 18, Cornwall, Ontario’s Tony “Bliksem” Luis (19-2, 7 KO) will now face UK veteran Derry Matthews (37-9-2, 20 KO) for the Interim WBA Lightweight Championship at the Echo Arena in Matthewshometown of Liverpool, Engeland, as the main event of a night of boxing presented by Frank Warren’s Queensberry Promotions.

Luis was originally scheduled to face Memphis, Tennessee, veteraan Ira Terry (26-13, 16 KO) in the televised co-feature of the “Championship Boxing op CBS Sports Network” evenement, presented by Greg Cohen Promotions in association with Adam Wilcock’s Fight Card Promotions and produced by David Schuster’s Winner Take All Productions onVrijdag, April 17, van het Grand Casino Hinckley in Hinckley, Minnesota.

Unbeaten Venezuelan slugger Ismael Barroso (17-0-2, 16 KO), who was originally scheduled to face Matthews, was unable to obtain the proper visas in time to fight on such short notice in England. He will now take Luisplace in Hinckley and will take on Terry in an eight-round attraction deze vrijdag.

It worked out well for everyone,” aldus Greg Cohen. “Tony Luis was high enough in the ratings and ready to fight, so he’s one of the few fighters in the world who could have stepped into this important fight on such short notice. And fortunately, he is a GCP fighter as well, so we made it happen quickly and he is on his way to the UK as we speak. Tony gets his dream shot at a world championship and the fans in Hinckley, and on CBS Sports Network, will get their first look at one of the most fearsome punchers in boxing, Ismael Barroso. So it seems that everyone wins in this unique situation.

Boxing’s most avoided world champion Guillermo Rigondeaux heading to UK next month To publically confront Scott Quigg

CORK, Ierland (April 12, 2015) – Unified super bantamweight world champion Bill “The Jackal” Rigondeaux (15-0, 10 KO), arguably the most avoided reigning world title holder in modern boxing history, will travel to London next month in order to publicly confront his mandatory challenger, Scott QUIGG (30-0-2, 22 KO), the World Boxing Association (WBA) “regelmatig” 122-pond divisie titlist.

 

A month ago in an unusual move, Rigondeaux’ manager Gary Hyde formally petitioned the WBA to enforce a mandatory title fight between his WBA Super champion and Quigg. Hyde is awaiting the WBA’s decision. Rigondeaux is also the World Boxing Organization (WBO) en De Ring tijdschrift super bantamgewicht kampioen.

 

A reigning world champion hasn’t been avoided by other world champions and top contenders like Rigondeux has for the past two years since, misschien, junior middengewicht Sergio Martinez, or possibly all the way back to middleweight Mike McCallum.

 

The top three super bantamweights in the world outside of RigondeauxInternational Boxing Federation (IBF) en de World Boxing Council (WBC) kampioenen, Carl Frampton en Leo Santa Cruz, respectievelijk, plus Quigghave avoided the Cuban great like the plaque. Once Santa Cruzpromoter at the time, Oscar de la Hoya, announced that a Rigondeaux-Santa Cruz had to happen, Santa Cruz’ powerful adviser, Al HAYMON, exercised a contract option and bought him out to avoid a fight with ‘Rigo.Frampton’s promoter, Barry McGuigan, has proclaimed his fighter, not Rigondeaux, als de nr. 1 super featherweight in the world. McGuigan, hoewel, is interested in Frampton fighting Quigg in a U.K. confrontatie, rather than a world mega-fight for three of the four major sanctioning world titles. As the “regelmatig” WBA champion, Quigg is Rigondeaux’ verplichte uitdager, nog, he apparently wants no part of the two-time Olympic gold medalist because his promoter, Barry Hearn, not only hasn’t pushed the issue, he’s in negotiations with McGuigan for Frampton to fight Quigg.

 

Former world super bantamweight champions Nonito Doniare, after he lost a unification fight to Rigondeaux two years ago, en Abner Mares chose to move up one division to fight as featherweights. And now Donaire reports that his manager was contacted by a Quigg representative to discuss a Donaire-Quigg fight in England.

 

Another two-time Olympic gold medalist, WBO 126-pound champion Vasyl Lomachenko, continually insists that “Lijn” has to move up in weight for a fight to happen despite him having no problems making 126.

 

“QUIGG, Santa Cruz and Frampton have showed no desire to challenge Rigondeaux,” Hyde zei. “These three fighters are trying to fool the public into believing that fight de nr. 1 guy in the world is not important. While they are lining their pockets with ridiculous amounts of cash for fighting below par opponents, Rigondeaux is forced to wait around until some Asian opponent steps up. This is a sport in which we are accustomed to seeing the best fighting the best but, in the super bantamweight division, it’s the best versus the rest.

 

Rigondeaux will travel to Manchester to fight Quigg, Belfast to fight Frampton, or Las Vegas to fight Santa Cruz. None of these so-called world champions, hoewel, will consider fighting the acknowledged world super bantamweight champion. They’re all much more content to hold onto their belts than beating The Man in their weight class.

 

Next month, Hyde reports, Rigondeaux will travel to the United Kingdom in a bold attempt to embarrass Quigg into fighting him. “I don’t like traveling overseas unless I have a fight lined up,” Rigondeaux explained, “but I will travel to England in May to publicly call out Scott Quigg. If he turns down the chance to fight our WBA mandatory, he will be remembered for that instead of being known as a great fighter. While I’m in the UK, I will also go to Belfast to checkout Carl Frampton to ask if he wants to prove himself against the best in his division.

 

Understanding that the top super bantamweight action is currently in Europe, noting a record purse ($2.2 million USD) offered for a Frampton vs. Quigg fight, Rigondeaux is considering a major change in the not too distant future, moving his base from Miami to the UK, if that’s what it takes for him to get in on the action.

 

Hyde also manages former WBO middleweight champion and current International Boxing Federation (IBF) Niet Doen. 1 verplichte mededinger Hassan N'Dam N'Jikam (31-1, 18 KO), former WBA Interim cruiserweight champion Yuri “El Toro” Kalenga (21-2, 14 KO) and Georgian super lightweight Levan “De Wolf” Ghvamichava (14-1-1, 11 KO) , as well as top prospects such as Cuban super bantamweight Mark Bos (2-0, 2 KO), Iers zwaargewicht Met Sheehan and Bulgarian light heavyweight Blagoy Naydenov.

VAN NUYS, Calif.(April 13, 2015) – Voormalig wereldkampioen Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. hield een media-training op vrijdag ten overstaan ​​van een volle zaal bij Ten Goose Boxing Gym in Van Nuys, Calif., als de Mexicaanse superster bereidt om zijn Showtime Championship Boxing® debuut op Zaterdag, April 18, bij de StubHub Center in Carson, Calif., live op SHOW TIME(10 p.m. EN/7 p.m. PT).

 

In het main event van de Showtime Championship Boxingdoubleheader, Mexicaanse superster Chavez, Jr. (48-1-1, 32 KO) voldoet gevaarlijke brawler Andrzej Fonfara (26-3, 15 KO) in een 12-ronde licht zwaargewicht gevecht.

 

In de 10-ronde co-functie, top 10 gerangschikt junior weltergewicht mededinger Amir I (16-0, 14 KO) zal streven naar een stap dichter bij een wereldtitel kans toen hij maakt zijn tweede start van 2015 tegen mede power-puncher Walter Castillo (25-2, 18 KO).

 

Julio Cesar Chavez, misschien wel de grootste Mexicaanse vechter aller tijden, maakte een verschijning tijdens de training van zijn zoon om zijn steun en bieden woorden van bemoediging tonen.

 

Hier is wat Chavez Jr., Julio Cesar Chavez en Joe Goossen (trainer) te zeggen had Vrijdag op de Los Angeles-area sportschool:

 

Julio Cesar Chavez JR., Voormalig wereldkampioen

“Ik ben erg gericht in te gaan op deze strijd. Ik heb veel veranderd mentaal afgelopen jaar.

 

“Ik vecht [Andrzej] Fonfara nu omdat ik graag grote tegenstanders. Ik hou van de uitdaging van de strijd goed, hongerige vechters. Gewoon omdat Fonfara heeft niet de naamsbekendheid van andere vechters, het maakt hem een ​​makkelijke vechter niet maken. Hij is taai.

 

“Ik comfortabel op licht zwaargewicht gevoel. Elke keer dat je een paar pond kan toevoegen, je voelt je beter. Hoewel ik zal vechten op 175, Ik voel me het meest comfortabel bij 168 als een bokser. Sinds ik had een jaar af, het was een betere keuze om te vechten op dit gewicht, zodat ik kon zien hoe mijn lichaam voelt.

 

“Sinds ik een paar pond toegevoegd, Ik heb een meer fysieke en sterker bokser te worden. De divisie licht zwaargewicht heeft een zeer grote en fysieke kanshebbers.

 

“Joe [Goossen] is een geweldige trainer. Hij is een grote motivator om zijn strijders en maakt ze beter. Ik heb heel hard voor gewerkt met hem 35 dagen dat we samen in Lake Tahoe.

 

“Toen ik trainen met Freddie Roach, Het was heel anders. Ik denk dat Freddie is een geweldige trainer, maar Joe heeft ook veel ervaring en we hebben een verbinding met elkaar gemaakt.

 

“Ik hield echt van de opleiding in Lake Tahoe. De hoogte, de ring, alles wat ik nodig had was er. Ik voelde me zeer comfortabel daar en ik zou graag terug te komen om opnieuw te trainen voor een gevecht.

 

“Ik beloof een geweldig gevecht, dit is een zeer spannende strijd. Fonfara is geen gemakkelijke tegenstander, maar hij heeft nog nooit een tegenstander als ik gezien.”

 

 

SR Julio Cesar Chavez.

“Ik ben hier om te ondersteunen en met mijn zoon. Ik probeer hem goede raad te geven. Ik vertel hem om te trainen en hard voor te bereiden, en gelukkig is hij, die doet het goed.

 

“Ik denk dat Joe [Goossen] is een geweldige job, we zijn op dezelfde pagina. We zijn allemaal gericht op hem [Chavez Jr] krijgen om de strijd goed voorbereid. Dit gevecht vergt veel voorbereiding, want hij gaat in de strijd bij een gewicht dat hoger is dan zijn normale gewicht en hij wordt geconfronteerd met een zeer taaie tegenstander.

 

“Hij moet gaan 100 procent tot deze strijd te winnen.

 

“Ik denk dat er sprake is van een 180 graden draai in zijn carrière. Ik zie dit als een positieve, omdat hij zijn vermogen echt kunnen ontwikkelen en ziet er zeer goed voorbereid.

 

“Ik heb graag gezien dat hem een ​​tune up te nemen vechten in plaats vanwege zijn lange ontslag; Ik ben vooral niet wilde deze strijd.

 

“Juli [Chavez Jr] wil geloofwaardigheid in deze sport en dat is de reden waarom hij de beslissing genomen om deze strijd te nemen, ook al is het een gevaarlijke beslissing. Hij moet erg bereid voor deze strijd.”

 

JOE GOOSSEN, Chavez Jr.s’ Trainer

“Ik ben gevraagd door de jaren heen die een vechter was dat ik zou willen werken en mijn antwoord was altijd Julio Cesar Chavez Jr.

 

“Ik heb altijd erg bewonderd zijn stijl. Ik had hem als kind bekend, Zijn vader is een legende. Het was altijd leek een droombaan voor mij, en uit het niets kreeg ik het.

 

“Lake Tahoe was enorm voor trainingskamp. U bent afgelegen en het is geen gemakkelijke zaak. Als je niet traint je zit in een hotelkamer. U bent beroofd het comfort van thuis, maar het is echt geeft je die concentratie en toewijding factor en ik denk dat zal interpreteren in een aantal positieve resultaten.

 

“Ik gerijpt over mijn jaar, zodra ik had een kind en een gezin en ik denk dat het hetzelfde is gebeurd met Julio. Het leven wordt duidelijker wanneer u weg de onvolwassenheid. Je beseft dat je een toekomst en als je echt wilt toegang tot wat er beschikbaar is voor u, dan ga je te hebben om hard te werken en wijden om het.
