Both Figueroa and Escandon picked up the pace early as they went toe-to-toe battling in an entertaining fight from the first bell. Figueroa, who typically fights at a distance, wanted to make a statement that he isn’t afraid to fight on the inside. An accidental head butt caused a large cut over the left eye of Figueroa, as blood poured the remainder of the fight. The combatants continued to throw high volumes of punches throughout the bout, but Figueroa remained more accurate and active as Escandon did his best to stay strong. In the tenth and final round, Figueroa sealed the win with a powerful combination that ended in a right upper cut to Escandon’s chin, sending him to the canvas rendering him unable to stand at minute 1:42.

“Escandon is tough. He is short and it was hard to get to the body,” Said Figueroa. “I can fight both inside and outside, but his size did matter. I had to get in there and he wasn’t backing up. I was ready for this fight. Opportunities like this don’t come often so I had to take it and run with it. I have been training all summer and I am ready to take a few days off and get right back to it.”

“I knew Figueroa was good, but I was surprised at how tough he was,” said Escandon. “Everyone can get caught with a punch. I wasn’t tired. I just got caught. I am okay. I am going to keep going.”

The co-main event saw British Silver Medalist Joe Joyce (6-0, 6 KOs) make his U.S. debut in a heavyweight fight domnation against Iago Kiladze (26-4-0, 18 KOs) av Georgia. Thirty seconds into the second round, Joyce sent Kiladze through the ropes with a flurry of right hands. Kiladze recovered and fought back, surviving the remainder of the round. He entered the third throwing everything he could, but Joyce hit him with a hard hook to the body forcing him to the canvas again. The fight ended in the with 41 seconds to go in the fifth round as Joyce landed a hard left hook to Kiladze’s body knocking him out.

“It is great to be here,” sa Joyce. “I started training in the United States because it was the best way to start my career here,” sa Joyce. “It is great to have my sixth win here and I look forward to getting in the ring again soon. I think I made a great impression here tonight and I just want to continue that streak.”

Also featured on the card was fast-rising star Joey Spencer (5-0, 5 KOs) of Union City, Calif. Against Cory Macon (0-3-0) of Durham, NC in a four-round middleweight bout. The 18-year-old Spencer, with dreams to become the youngest American with a world title, went to work immediately, going to the body of Macon. He continued to attack the body, but with a hard left hook, he sent Macon to the canvas, ending the fight just inside round number one at minute 2:36.

“I stay active and stay in the gym. It keeps me focused and ready,” said Spencer. “My goal is to become a world champion by age 20. Fans need to keep an eye on me and my career because I am here to stay.”

Efe Ajagba (7-0-0, 6 KOs) faced Nick Jones (7-1-0, 5 KOs) of Okmulgee, OK in a six-round heavyweight fight that didn’t even last one round. With a hard right hand, Ajagba sent Jones to the canvas with a devastating knockout in 2:25 av den første.

“Now we know why my last opponent walked out of the ring. He was afraid that was going to happen to him,” said Ajagba. “I watched tape of Jones and I knew he was slow. I was ready to attack the minute I got into the ring. I want anyone that my management will put in front of me. Jeg er klar. I prepared for six rounds and I can’t wait to get back in the ring.”

In a televised swing bout, young prospect Jose Balderas (5-0-0) of Santa Maria, Calif. was tested by Mexican Ivan Martino (3-3-0, 3 KOs) i en bantamvekt, but was able to get his shots off, connected with several left hooks to Martino’s body.

“He is a strong guy and he kept coming, but we were ready for it,” said Balderas. “I think I got the rounds he needed. I have been improving since my first fight. I am going to keep learning and keep growing.”

Stephen Fulton (14-0-0, 6 KOs) of the fighting city of Philadelphia faced German Meraz (61-50-2, 38 KOs) of Mexico opened the telecast in a scheduled eight-round featherweight fight. Fulton, who took this fight with 72 timer’ legge merke til, used his jab throughout the and dominated every round. In the first minute of the eighth and final round, Fulton knocked Meraz down, setting up the win. I slutten, the judges ruled the bout a unanimous decision.

“I wasn’t worried about taking the fight on such short notice,” said Fulton. “I knew I was going to dominate. I might have prepared for someone else, but that didn’t matter. I have the experience to be able to adjust. He could have had 100 fights or five fights and I would have bene ready. I want Brandon Figueroa next.”

Billetter til dette arrangementet, som promoteres av TGB Promotions og Ringstar Sports, er i salg nå og kan kjøpes på Ticketmaster.com.

Here is what the participants at the media event had to say Thursday from Fortune Gym in Los Angeles:

VICTOR ORTIZ

“John Molina Jr.. is a warrior, and it’s going to be two warriors on fight night. This is another chance for me to do what I love to do and what I have the most passion in the world for.

“You have to keep that fire burning inside you to keep competing in this sport. You have to go in there 100 miles per time. This is a sport and I’m going in there to destroy him, then we can go have lunch after.

“I have lots of respect for Molina, but this is still boxing. He’s in my way right now and I’m going to knock him out of the way.

“I have one big task ahead of me and that’s John Molina Jr. september 30. I can’t focus on anyone else out there, as much as I may want to fight them. I have a tremendous challenge in front of me.

“I don’t feel that I have the size advantage. Molina is a big guy. I’m not too small or anything, but at the end of the day we’re going to have a good dance in that ring and there’s going to be no excuses.

“I’m working hard each day in camp to be ready for September 30. Whatever the coaches have been asking of me, I’ve been there and delivered.”

JOHN MOLINA JR.

“I know that Victor is going to be himself in there. We’re both veterans who have been been down this road before. He’s coming to win and that’s what excites me. I think everyone watching is going to get a treat on September 30.

“Victor is probably the physically bigger guy because he’s been at welterweight longer, but I think I carry the weight well. I’ve always been big for my weight classes so I think it will fit perfectly.

“Training is what I do. I’ve been down this road before so it’s really just built into my system to get in the gym and work hard. Everything has been going great. We’re on track with some hard work ahead to be ready for fight night.

“Victor deserves my undivided attention and he has it. Especially for this fight. He is a big strong guy who hits hard for 147-pounds. I never pick the easy guy when I move up in weight. My first fight at 140 was Lucas Matthysse and I expect fireworks for this fight as well.

“My ability to bounce back and deal with adversity in the ring is all about mindset. When I’m in that ring, I’m just 100 percent focused on doing what I have to do for my family. I’ve been blessed by boxing. I put it all on the line.

“I know I have to go through the fire every time I get into the ring. If I didn’t think that I’d be fooling myself. You can say what you want about Victor, but he’s always been in exciting fights and I’m going to have to deal with that style on September 30.”

KARLOS BALDERAS

“I envision myself going out there and breaking down my opponent little by little. I think we’ve kept the same kind of training going, but me and my brother are much more comfortable as pros now, so it’s gotten even more productive.

“I’m excited to keep working and getting my rounds in, while also having fun with this job I’m blessed to have. I’m not planning to let this fight go the distance and I’m going to take the opportunity to end it when I see it.

“Me and my brother both believe that the fight is really won in the gym. By the time you get up into the ring, it’s just sparring really. That helps me stay relaxed and focused on the work I’m there to do and not worried about anything going on around me.

JOSE BALDERAS

“I feel great going into this fight. I’ve learned a lot from each time I’ve gotten into the ring and I’m going to take that into this next fight to put on my best performance.

“My goal is always to go out there and be great. I’m ready to break my opponent down and do what I have to do.

“It’s exciting to be on the same card as my brother again. We definitely are still invested in each other’s fights. Hopefully we can each take care of business and be able to be there cheering each other on.”

RICHARD Schaefer, Styreformann & CEO i Ringstar Sports

“It’s refreshing to see the level of respect from Ortiz and Molina. This is an extremely evenly matched fight with no clear favorite. These are fighters who can create a memorable night. It’s the perfect example of how styles make fights.

“Both of these men know how to entertain and are must-see television every time they step into the ring. Now they’re fighting each other and it’s got war written all over it. The fans watching on Sunday night and here in Ontario are in for a treat.

“I’m excited to see the continued development of Karlos Balderas on September 30. He is quickly making an impression throughout the sport and I believe he’s going to prove that he can live up to the promise in the not too distant future. Sunday will be another step toward what he can really accomplish.”

Her er hva deltakerne hadde å si tirsdag fra Palm Restaurant Downtown Los Angeles:

VICTOR ORTIZ, Tidligere verdensmester i weltervekt

“John Molina Jr.. er en fantastisk kriger akkurat som meg selv. Han har et stort hjerte, og han kommer ikke til å trekke seg tilbake, og det vil ikke jeg heller. Det kommer til å bli en stor kamp.

“John og jeg har kjent hverandre i mange år. Jeg er ikke en med dårlig munn, men spesielt denne fyren. Vi er i dette for å gå til krig i september 30. Jeg kjemper voldsomt og kan ikke endre på det. Jeg håper på slutten av dagen det gir folk et morsomt oppgjør.

“Jeg er glad for å være tilbake i denne posisjonen som hovedbegivenheten, og det er enda bedre å være i Sør-California. Jeg er ydmyk over å ha denne muligheten.

“Jeg føler meg fortsatt sterk og kraftig, og jeg kommer ikke til å kaste bort denne tiden, jeg må fortsatt konkurrere på høyeste nivå. Jeg er klar til å gå ut og sette på en ny krig for fansen.

“John Molina Jr.. fortalte meg faktisk på Mayweather vs. McGregor pressekonferanse som han gikk opp til 147 og jeg bør komme meg unna, så det er morsomt nå som vi står overfor. Vi har mye gjensidig respekt for hverandre. Det endrer imidlertid ingenting, vi skal gå ut dit og gi alt.”

JOHN MOLINA JR., Tidligere verdensmester tittel Challenger

“Jeg er takknemlig overfor Victor Ortiz og teamet hans for å akseptere denne utfordringen. Vi har ikke annet enn respekt for hverandre. Min eneste spådom er september 30 kommer til å være to karer som kommer for å vinne og to karer som nekter å reise hjem med tap.

“Jeg vet at Victor kommer til å være oppe i ansiktet mitt, og det er akkurat min stil og hvordan jeg liker å kjempe. Den har alle grunnene til et slagsmål i all action.

“I denne bransjen må vi kjempe mot folk vi kjenner veldig godt. Dette er hvordan vi mater familiene våre, så vi tar det ekstremt alvorlig. Jeg vet at vi begge kommer til å være forberedt og den beste mannen vil vinne.

“Hver gang jeg kommer inn i ringen er det en krig. Min måte å bokse på har alltid vært å kjempe mot de tøffeste gutta, og Victor er absolutt ingen sløv. Han er en enorm fighter. Han er eksplosiv og det kommer til å gjøre det til en flott kamp.

“I en kamp som dette kommer du til å ha fyrverkeri. Victor er en stor, sterk fyr som kommer for å vinne. Han vil tilbake til fjelltoppen. Men det er ingen stopp i meg. Det er intrigen for denne kampen. Kan jeg ut vil ham? Vi får vite det i september 30.

“Hver kamp jeg har hatt, har vært min største kamp. Alle vet at jeg lar alt ligge i ringen. Hver fighter sier det, men hvis du noen gang har sett kampene mine, vet du at det er sannheten. Det kommer til å være det samme 30. september.”

JOE JOYCE, Ubeseiret Heavyweight Prospect

“Jeg har en plan, og et mål om å komme dit jeg ønsker å være for å vinne en verdenstittel. Jeg har slått meg til rette i Big Bear for å trene, og det er som mitt andre hjem. Jeg gleder meg til å gjøre mitt U.S. debut i september 30.

“Jeg kommer til å vise de amerikanske fansen min stil og gi et veldig bra show og en sterk prestasjon. Følg med og se utviklingen min her i USA., fordi jeg kommer til å bli verdensmester i tungvekt.

“Jeg har sett på Kiladzes rekord og han har en god knockout-prosent og han har mye god erfaring. Han er en sterk fyr, men jeg må bare se litt nærmere og finne styrker og svakheter og utnytte det.

“Jeg har mye god sparring i Big Bear de neste par ukene, og det kommer til å gjøre meg klar for september 30. Det er en annen struktur og tempo i Big Bear enn det var i Storbritannia. Det tok litt tid å tilpasse meg, men nå føler jeg meg komfortabel og jeg føler at jeg passer inn i gruppen av boksere vi har der. Jeg ser meg selv utvikle meg og bli enda sterkere.”

Iago Kiladze, Tungvektskamper ut av Los Angeles

“Jeg har en veldig god og sterk motstander, men jeg er i god form og jeg har hatt en utrolig treningsleir. Jeg er klar til å gå og jeg vet at jeg kommer til å gå ut med seieren.

“Los Angeles er mitt adopterte hjem, og jeg elsker å kunne kjempe her med de som står meg nær. Det kommer til å gi meg mer motivasjon til å vinne denne kampen og hjelpe når kampuken kommer.

“Jeg bekymrer meg ikke for mye om hva motstanderen min har oppnådd, men jeg forbereder meg mest på å være mitt beste. Laget mitt vil ha en god plan for å veilede meg til denne seieren 30. september.”

KARLOS BALDERAS, Ubeseiret superlett prospekt

“Jeg er virkelig fokusert på å fullføre akkurat nå 2018 sterk slik at jeg kan ta den opp igjen 2019. Jeg kommer til å fortsette å ta meg god tid og gå videre, men jeg har øye på en verdenstittel. Min bror Jose Balderas vil også være med på kortet, så vi ønsker begge å sette opp et show for alle som ser på.

“Jeg har blitt bedre til å kontrollere følelsene mine i ringen. Jeg og broren min blir mentalt forberedt i leiren slik at når vi kommer til kampen, det er egentlig bare en annen dag.

“Vi kommer bare til å fortsette å jobbe og vokse og bygge opp fanskaren steg for steg. Vi kan begynne å kjempe på forskjellige kort nedover veien, men foreløpig nyter vi å kjempe på samme natt.

“Jeg tror ikke det vil være for lang tid før jeg begynner å flytte opp kortene før jeg til slutt er hovedbegivenheten. Jeg ønsker å avslutte dette året sterkt slik at inn 2019 Jeg er i en posisjon til å komme enda nærmere et tittelskudd.”

RICHARD Schaefer, Styreformann & CEO i Ringstar Sports

“Denne kampen mellom Victor Ortiz og John Molina Jr. er en flott kirsebær på toppen til en flott måned for boksingsporten. Dette er et slagsmål med all action som vil være tå-til-tå. Det er det kampfansen ønsker å se, og det er det vi skal få.

“Dette kortet er fullstendig lastet. Den er full av unge talenter og erfarne fightere som garantert vil sette på en flott kveld med action for fansen på Citizens Business Bank Arena.

“Jeg vet at Karlos Balderas og Joe Joyce er spente på å få denne sjansen til å opptre på denne plattformen, og jeg tror fansen kommer til å få en skikkelig godbit. For Joe er det en debut i USA. som gir ham en sjanse til å gjøre et stort førsteinntrykk. Begge disse gutta er helt klare til å tre inn i rampelyset.”

He started boxing at age 8 and won numerous state and national titles. Juarez, en boxer-puncher, who often switches stances during his fights, feels his style is unique to others in the sport.

“Back home I made the decision to start speaking at schools and establish myself as a positive role model to the kids in my area.” Juarez continued. “I will have a lot of fans tuning in this Friday when I make my pro debut. I really want to dedicate this first fight to all my people back home in Brownsville who have supported me over the years. I’m thankful for their support.”

Televised Heavyweight Matchup

Weltervekt Contender & Minneapolis Fan-Favorite Jamal James Battles Mexico’s Mahonry Montes in the Main Event

MINNEAPOLIS (August 8, 2018) – An already stacked card is expanding to a three-hour telecast with exciting showdowns presented by Premier Boxing Champions as rising unbeaten 2016 Olympian Eimantas Stanionis faces the toughest test of his young career when he battles Levan Ghvamichava and explosive heavyweight prospect Efe Ajagba steps into the ring looking to deliver another knockout performance live on FS1 and FOX Deportes Friday, August 24 from the Armory in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

The PBC on FS1 and FOX Deportes telecast is headlined by welterweight contender Jamal James returning to action in his hometown as he takes on Mexico’s Mahonry Montes. Middleweight contenders Willie Monroe Jr. and Immanuwel Aleem will square-off in the co-main event while rising prospect Jamontay Clark will take on once-beaten Jeison Rosario in a super welterweight showdown. Those five fights will play out over three hours of non-stop action, som begynner på 8 pm. ET / 5 p.m. PT.

Highlighting the non-televised undercard will be Minnesota-native and former super middleweight world champion Caleb “Golden” Truax as he returns to the ring after two straight world title fights to face Brazil’s Fabiano Pena in a 10-round super middleweight fight.

Billetter til direktesendingen, which is promoted by TGB Promotions and Warriors Boxing, are on sale now and are available by visiting www.ArmoryMN.com or Ticketmaster.com.

After representing his native Lithuania in the 2016 OL, Stanionis (6-0, 5 KOs) moved to California to train with legendary coach Freddie Roach and begin his pro career. The 23-year-old made his pro debut in April 2017 with a first-round knockout of Rasheed Lawal and followed it up with knockout wins in four of his next five bouts. Stanionis has scored stoppage victories over Hector Munoz and Erick Daniel Martinez so far in 2018 and will look to make it three-straight when he steps in for the eight-round welterweight affair.

Originally from the nation of Georgia but now fighting out of California, Ghvamichava (18-3-1, 13 KOs) has had his last four fights appear on FS1 and FOX Deportes broadcasts as he’s challenged former champion Sergey Lipinets and top contender Yordenis Ugas, while picking up victories over Oscar Molina and Breidis Prescott. The 33-year-old was unbeaten in seven straight fights after his first defeat in 2013.

Coached by renowned trainer Ronnie Shields in Houston, Ajagba (5-0, 5 KOs) has been impressive since turning pro after representing his native Nigeria in the 2016 Olympiske leker. The 24-year-old has five knockout victories in five pro fights so far, with only one opponent reaching the second round.

Truax (29-4-2, 18 KOs) became just the third Minnesota-born fighter to win a world title when he went on the road to the UK last December and defeated James DeGale in one of the biggest upsets of 2017. The Osseo-product lost a close decision in the rematch to DeGale in April and will return to action to take on the 30-year-old Pena (15-10-1, 11 KOs), who has faced numerous top contenders including Jose Uzcategui, Joe Smith Jr. and Tureano Johnson to name a few.
