Jamie McDonnell guanya una decisió propera

HIDALGO, TEXAS (Maig 9, 2015) – Omar “Panterita” Figueroa (25-0-1, 18 KOs) es va mantenir invicte mentre va fer un espectacle emocionant davant d'una multitud estridente de la ciutat natal i va obtenir una decisió unànime sobre Ricky Burns (37-5-1, 11 KOs) a Premier Boxing Champions a CBS en directe des de State Farm Arena a Hidalgo, Texas.

 

Figueroa va ser el lluitador més agut que va donar cops més forts i va poder dictar el ritme de la lluita.. Burns se li va restar un punt tant a la vuitena com 11º rondes per l'àrbitre per una retenció excessiva. “Panterita” guanyat pels comptes de 116-110 dues vegades i 117-109.

 

A la primera baralla televisiva de la tarda, Estrella britànica Jamie McDonnell (25-2-1, 12 KOs) es va guanyar una decisió estreta però unànime sobre la invicte anterior Tomoki “El Mexicanito” Kameda (31-1, 19 KOs). McDonnell va ser enderrocat per primera vegada en la seva carrera per una forta mà dreta de Kameda a la tercera ronda, però es va recuperar ràpidament per guanyar per una dotzena de punts. 114-113 en els tres jutges’ targetes.

 

Aquí teniu el que van dir els lluitadors després dels seus combats:

 

OMAR FIGUEROA

 

“Lluitant una baralla com aquesta, es necessita molt per fer fins i tot quatre rondes, molt menys 12. Amb un lluitador així, recolzar-se en tu i utilitzar el seu pes sobre tu és difícil. Estic content d'haver estat en forma i de no haver decepcionat els meus fans.

 

“Sóc un lluitador molt ofensiu, així que la retenció em va frenar. Vaig intentar fer el que vaig poder i, per sort, els jutges ho van veure.

 

“Les meves mans estan una mica adolorides, però realment vaig aguantar els meus cops, sobretot perquè té un d'aquells guàrdies europeus on manté les mans amunt i els colzes estan al descobert.. Vaig haver d'anar amb compte anant al cos perquè així em feia mal les mans la majoria de vegades, de colpejar els colzes. Em vaig sentir ridículament fort davant el nou pes, però no pensava que les meves mans aguastessin, així que em vaig retenir i intentava guanyar la lluita per punts i si pogués fer-li mal, intentaria aturar-lo..

 

“Em donava un cop de puny darrere del cap, so I felt like I had to do the same. If you want to play like that, I can play that game.

 

“Al final de la lluita, he came with a good body shot that hurt me a bit. That’s why I slowed down at the end. I have to give it to Ricky. És un lluitador dur.

 

“It’s time to rest up. I’ve been training since the beginning of the year and I deserve a little rest.”

 

RICKY BURNS

 

“We knew it was going to be a tough fight, but I didn’t agree with the deductions for holding. I thought he was holding as much as me and that’s why I had to tie him up.

 

“We moved up in weight for this one but still had some trouble making weight, but I didn’t want to jeopardize my chance to fight in America.

 

“I think it was his size that gave me problems more than anything. I don’t know what weight he was in that ring, but it was a lot bigger than me.

 

“The plan was to try to stick to boxing for the first half of the fight, but once the size really took over I had to stand and exchange more than I would have liked. I couldn’t get him off of me. No tinc excuses, as I said the best man will win.

 

“I always leave everything in the ring and that’s all I can do. I hope everyone who watched enjoyed the fight.

 

“We’ve enjoyed the experience of being in the U.S., obviously the decision didn’t go our way which puts a damper on it, but overall everyone here in Texas has been great. I want to say a big thank you to everybody. I hope to back again.”

 

JAMIE MCDONNELL

 

“I felt in control all the way through. It was a great performance. I know I should have just boxed but I wanted to fight.

 

“I didn’t think I was going to get the decision being abroad, but it’s more than spectacular to come out of here victorious. He’s a great, campió invicte.

 

“His speed surprised me on the knockdown. I knew he was going to be fast, but I didn’t expect it like that. I didn’t see the shot and next thing I knew I was on the floor.

 

“Hit and move, hit and move, that was the strategy. I remember being in there and thinking, ‘Home, this isn’t easy.’ I knew the crowd was going to go his way but it was a great experience.

 

“It’s been a fantastic time being here in America. I’d like to see some familiar faces but it’s a new experience. I was up against it but I knew I could pull it off. Sabia en el fons que podia fer-ho.

 

“Crec que pujaré de pes. Vull agafar les grans baralles abans que desapareguin.”

 

Tomoki Kameda

 

“Crec que he guanyat la lluita. Vaig fer prou per guanyar. Va fer molt per guanyar les darreres rondes, però vaig fer més durant la lluita. No estic d'acord amb la decisió dels jutges, però ho respecto.

 

“Sabia que s'aixecava després de la caiguda perquè és campió del món. És un gran lluitador i em trec el barret, però vaig guanyar la lluita.

 

“Vull una revenja.”

En directe a CBS Sports a partir de les 4 P.m. I/1 P.m. PT

HIDALGO, TEXAS (Maig 7, 2015) – Setmana de lluita per Lliga de Campions de Boxa a CBS va continuar dijous com a combatents televisats Omar “Panterita” Figueroa, Ricky Burns, Tomoki “El Mexicanito” Kameda, Jamie McDonnelli Austin “No ha Dubte” Truita va parlar amb els mitjans de comunicació a la conferència de premsa final abans de tenir lloc els seus respectius combatsDissabte, Maig 9 en la State Farm Arena.

 

Aquí teniu el que van dir els participants dijous:

 

OMAR FIGUEROA

 

“Aquesta és la lluita més gran de la meva carrera fins ara. Tinc el meu germà a la fitxa i està aquí a casa. Això és el. Crec que és fantàstic que la gent de la Vall obtingui una targeta enorme com aquesta aquí. No ho han vist des que Vasquez vs. Márquez, així que espero tornar aquest nivell de boxa a la Vall.

 

“Sens dubte, sento més pressió, però el bon tipus de pressió. He prosperat amb la pressió tota la meva vida. Vaig ser càntir durant molt de temps. Jo era un més proper. Així que he estat en situacions en què les bases estan carregades i hem baixat tantes carreres i he de mantenir el joc a prop. Això és el que visc.

 

“No he vist cap pel·lícula de Ricky Burns. No l'he mirat gens. Però pel que he sentit, és un lluitador dur en gran forma, doncs si anem 12 rondes serà una bona 12 rondes. Vaig a sortir i donar-ho tot i guanyar de la manera més impressionant possible.

 

“No va ser difícil renunciar al meu títol. No lluito pels títols. No m'importen els títols. Crec que només són coses estètiques. Prefereixo agradar als aficionats amb una bona lluita. No m'importa si guanyo un títol al final del dia, però si els aficionats estan contents, Estic content.

 

“Seré molt més fort amb aquest nou pes. No sé què esperar. Estic emocionat de pujar al ring i descobrir-ho.”

 

RICKY BURNS

 

“Quan estàs en dures baralles, això és el que treu el millor de tu. Tinc moltes ganes de pujar al ring i fer una bona actuació i guanyar alguns seguidors aquí.

 

“És una lluita molt dura i ho sabíem abans de prendre-la. A Figueroa li agrada avançar i ser agressiu, però aquest pot ser el seu inconvenient perquè fa molts cops. Estem preparats per a qualsevol cosa que passi la nit de la baralla i el millor home guanyarà.

 

“Hi ha gent que pensa que he vingut aquí només per ser un oponent, però no és així. Vaig tenir un any dolent però tot ha quedat enrere. Tornaré a les meves maneres de guanyar.

 

“Això és tot el que he volgut aconseguir a la boxa. Serà una lluita dura, però quan arribi la baralla faré només quatre setmanes que estic a Texas.

 

“Tracto la boxa com la meva feina, a l'hora d'entrenar i lluitar sempre ho dono 100 per cent i deixar-ho tot al ring i esperem que els aficionats ho vegin. L'Omar mai no està en una baralla avorrida i jo no sóc dels que s'enrediguin.

 

“Hem tractat aquesta lluita exactament igual que qualsevol altra. Encara que estem a la seva ciutat natal, tan bon punt soni aquesta primera campana és quan comptarà. Només som ell i jo en aquest anell.”

 

Tomoki Kameda

 

“És un somni fet realitat lluitar en una cadena com CBS. Milions de persones ara em coneixeran, conèixer el meu estil. La boxa està canviant i formar-ne part és un gran honor per a mi.

“No va ser fàcil renunciar al meu títol mundial — Vaig ser el primer japonès que va tenir aquest títol. Mai és fàcil renunciar a alguna cosa per la qual has treballat tant. Però respecto la decisió de l'òrgan sancionador, van dir que havia de renunciar-hi i així ho vaig fer. Ara, Vaig a buscar un altre títol, i després potser la unificació.

“McDonnell és un bon boxejador. Sap boxejar i sap entrar al ring. La majoria dels combatents britànics ho fan, moure's molt. No és un estil fàcil d'afrontar, però el meu equip i jo tenim una gran estratègia i anem a guanyar, guanyarem per nocaut.

“M'encanta Mèxic. M'hi vaig mudar quan estava 15 amb la meva família. Hi vaig fer tota la meva carrera amateur i tota la meva carrera professional. Estic agraït a Mèxic i a tots els mexicans per donar-me tant.

“El meu equip i els nois del gimnàs van començar a dir-me "El Mexicanito".’ perquè accepto la cultura mexicana com a pròpia. M'encanta el menjar, la gent i per descomptat la llengua espanyola. Al principi lluito amb això, però ara crec que ho he dominat.”

 

JAMIE MCDONNELL

 

“Crec que Kameda està una mica espantat i una mica intimidat per la meva mida. Crec sincerament que el noquejaré. Sóc massa gran i massa fort.

 

“Fa un parell d'anys que sóc campiona del món. Estic molt segur d'aquesta lluita. És el millor que he sentit mai. Tinc moltes ganes de fer-ho.

 

“Kameda és un bon lluitador i espero el millor d'ell. És millor que espere el millor de mi. Això canvia la vida, qui guanyi aquesta lluita s'impulsa uns quants nivells.

 

“Vull la millor vida possible per a la meva dona i la meva filla. Per fer-ho he de vèncer-lo.

 

“Les meves pèrdues van ser fa sis anys i en aquell moment ni tan sols creia en mi mateix. He passat per totes les experiències que pots en aquest temps i ho porto tot sobre la taula.

 

“Els aficionats poden esperar veure molt de cor. Puc fer un cop de puny, Puc donar un cop de puny. És una lluita interessant i és una oportunitat per a mi de mostrar el que sóc en aquest gran escenari aquí a Amèrica.”

 

TRUITA AUSTIN

 

“Pel que fa al meu oponent abandonant a l'últim moment, la decepció és una mena de subestimació. Però estic intentant mantenir-ho amb classe, així que em quedaré amb decebut. No m'estranya tanmateix.

 

“The day I heard that he pulled out it definitely changed my mindset, but I had to find that focus and realize that we still have work to do.

 

“It’s an honor to be part of this whole PBC on CBS card. I feel like this is the resurgence of boxing – brining it back to the golden days. For me to be a part of that was one of my goals when I turned pro. I wanted to be a part of the comeback of boxing.

 

“I’m trying to get a belt. I want my world title back. After I get a world title I’m going to try and avenge those losses. After I avenge those losses I want another title so I can become an undisputed champion. Once that’s done we can consider moving up to another weight class maybe.”
