STYLE
Wilder:
Divoké hojdanie, často nedbalý bojovník s dlhými rukami a silou meniacou boj v oboch pästiach, Wilder rád nastavuje dostrel svojou olovenou rukou a sleduje ho rôznymi silovými údermi. Svoju silu si nesie neskoro do svojich bojov a je schopný kedykoľvek vyradiť knokaut.
Zúrivosť:
Sebavedomý, sebaistý, a niekedy domýšľavý bojovník, Fury má pre tak veľkého bojovníka svižné pohyby a rýchlosť. Kombinuje dobrú prácu nôh s pohybom hornej časti tela a schopnosťou boxovať buď ortodoxne alebo ľavou labkou, udržiavanie súperov v nerovnováhe a zakladanie vlastného útočného útoku.
ICH PRVÝ VÝBOR
Wilder-Fury I:Fury otvoril zápas efektívnym pohybom, udržiavanie Wildera v nerovnováhe a neschopnosť pristáť nič významné. Wilder bol schopný pristáť niekoľko tvrdých úderov v 4th kolo, stekajúca krv z Furyho nosa. Fury strávil čas v prostredných kolách ako ľavá labka a našiel úspech. Wilder zaznamenal príklep v 9th kolo, ale následný útok ho unavil, umožnil Furymu získať späť hybnosť prostredníctvom 11th okrúhly. Pamätná 12th guľová píla Wilder prerazila a dopadla na kombináciu pravého a ľavého háku. Fury tvrdo spadol na plátno, plocho na chrbte. Úžasne vstal pri počte 9 a záverečné kolo skončilo outlanderom Wildera. Alejandro Rochin skóroval 115-111 Wilder, Robert Tapper skóroval 114-112 Zúrivosť, a Phil Edwards skóroval 113-113.
SILNÉ STRÁNKY
Wilder:
* Sila - detonácia na konci Wilderových pästí, predovšetkým je pravá ruka, je jadrových rozmerov. Zatiaľ čo jeho ľavá ruka nesie v sebe výrazný pop, je to Wilderova pravá ruka, ktorá sa považuje za možno najničivejší úder v boxe súčasnosti. Súboje môže ukončiť tak, že pravú ruku dopadne priamo do stredu, oblúkom cez vrchol, alebo rozdelenie krytu ako hák.
* Kondicionovanie - na začiatku svojej kariéry, keď v priebehu niekoľkých kôl ukončil všetky svoje boje, boli otázniky, či Wilder v ďalších kolách vybledne. Dokázal, že v posledných kolách dokáže rovnako tvrdo bojovať a je schopný knokautu až do záverečného zvonenia.
* Atletizmus - Wilder kombinuje vzácnu zmes veľkosti, rýchlosť, energie, a atletické schopnosti, pri ktorých je ľahké si predstaviť, že je dominantný v akomkoľvek type atletického prostredia.
Zúrivosť:
* Pohyb - Pre muža s veľkosťou a stavbou tela, ktorá pripomína strieborného chrbta, Fury sa pohybuje s ladnosťou a svižnosťou baletky. Je ľahký na nohy a má pohyblivý pohyb v hornej časti tela, ktorý je pre niekoho tak veľkého nezvyčajný.
* Dôvera - Fury si je nanajvýš istý v seba a verí vo svoje schopnosti. V ringu prejavuje malý alebo žiadny strach. Jeho sebavedomá charizmatická povaha mu dáva psychologickú výhodu.
* Odolný - či už to bolo zliezanie z plátna proti Wilderovi, prekonanie hrozného zásahu proti Wallinovi, alebo bojovať proti depresii a zneužívaniu návykových látok, Fury preukázal tvrdosť a odolnosť, ktoré treba obdivovať.
NEDOSTATKY
Wilder:
* Sloppy - Wilder prejavuje toľko viery v jeho silu, že je často divoký a nedbalý svojimi údermi a chodidlami. V ringu vyzerá často veľmi amatérsky.
* Problémy s boxermi - Bojovníci, ktorí používajú dobrý pohyb a boxerské schopnosti, potrápia Wildera. Bojuje s nastavením svojich nôh a často je o krok pozadu. V oboch súbojoch sledoval Luisa Ortiza a bol prekonaný po väčšinu svojho prvého zápasu s Furym.
* Brada - Niekoľkokrát bol Wilder vážne skontrolovaný bradou, ukázal nejaké nedostatky na svojej trvanlivosti. Ortiz ho ťažko zranil a bol blízko vyraďovacej straty.
Zúrivosť:
* Rozptýlenie - Fury miluje svoju novú slávu a hovorí o WWE a MMA. Rozišiel sa so svojím trénerom Benom Davidsonom a dorovnáva vlastné strely. Fury má tiež kúzla v ringu, kde stráca sústredenie a počas výpadku koncentrácie sa viackrát ocitol na plátne..
* Osobný život - sú dobre zdokumentované minulé osobné démony Fury s depresiou a zneužívaním návykových látok, spolu s priberaním na váhe 400 lbs. Zatiaľ čo jeho triumfy nad týmito démonmi sú obdivuhodné, trvalé fyzické účinky nemožno poprieť.
* Koža - Je to len päť mesiacov, čo Fury utrpel strašnú ranu cez pravé oko proti Otto Wallinovi, vyžadujúce 47 stehy. Zatiaľ čo lekári považovali rez za dostatočne uzdravený, jeho jemná pokožka sa mohla znovu otvoriť v najnevhodnejšom čase.
PREDCHÁDZAJÚCE BOUT
Wilder: (11/23/19) - Wilder si opäť pripísal protiútok proti Luisovi Oritzovi. Potom, čo bol odoslaný do väčšiny prvých šiestich kôl, Wilder nasadil proti unavujúcemu Ortizovi a dopadol na rozdrvenú pravú ruku, ktorá vyústila do jedného úderu.
Zúrivosť:
(9/14/19) - Fury prežil krvavé súboje s neporazeným, ale neznámym Ottom Wallinom. Fury utrpel podrezanie na pravom oku v 3rd okrúhle a krv jasne ovplyvňovala jeho videnie. Napriek postihnutiu, Fury akciu stále kontroloval a na ceste k rozhodujúcemu víťazstvu niekoľkokrát zranil Wallina.
3 Najlepších výkonov
Wilder:
* Arthur Pin (1/16/16) - Po skorom zaostávaní, Wilder prevzal vedenie v 4th kolo a začal sa usadzovať a kontrolovať akciu. Jedna pravá ruka v 9th kolo poslal Szpilku dole a v bezvedomí, the 2016 Knockout roka.
* Zlatý pohár (1/17/15) - Wilder odpovedal na otázky o svojej výdrži naplno 12 prvýkrát v kariére a získal v tomto procese titul WBC. Wilder využil svoj dlhý úder a udržal Stiverna na uzde so svojou podceňovanou sadou schopností.
* Luis Ortiz (3/3/18) - Wilder prežil niektoré strašidelné chvíle proti kubánskemu veteránovi, ktorému sa často vyhýbali, a zvíťazil o 10th okrúhly knokaut. Wildera trápili Ortizove boxerské schopnosti skôr, ako ho zrazil do lopty 5th okrúhly. Zhromaždenie Ortiz v 7th sa Wilder vážne zranil, ale Wilder sa o pár kôl dokázal preskupiť a vyradiť vyradenie.
Zúrivosť:
* Wladimir Klitschko (11/25/15) - Fury odišiel do Kličkovho dvora a jednomyseľným rozhodnutím vybojoval zjednotené a priame majstrovstvá v ťažkej váhe. Zatiaľ čo o zápas išlo o opatrnú záležitosť, Fury dokázal prekonať Kličko vynikajúcou prácou nôh, pohyb, a vyšší výkon úderu.
* Derek Chisora (11/29/14) - Fury dominoval v odvete so svojím britským rivalom, box z diaľky, prepínanie medzi pravoslávnymi a južnými labkami, a potrestal svojho protivníka, až kým roh neprerušil boj 10 jednostranné kolá.
* Deontay Wilder (12/1/18) - S výnimkou dvoch knockdownov a niekoľkých kurióznych hodnotení, Väčšinu zápasu mal Fury pod kontrolou. Vyhol sa Wilderovým úderom a dopadol na efektívne počítadlá, To, že Wilder vyzeral v tomto procese zmätený a nevyvážený.
KEYS k víťazstvu
Wilder:
* Využite jeho úder a vylúčte Furyho nepríjemný štýl
* Udržujte jeho silové údery krátke a kompaktné
* Nenechajte sa hypnotizovať Furyho pohybom hornej časti tela
Zúrivosť:
* Zmeňte tempo a nechajte Wildera hádať
* Bočným pohybom zabráňte Wilderovi v nastavení nôh
* Nenechajte sa nafúknuť proti lanám
OTÁZKY
Wilder:
* Dokáže Wilder zvládnuť Furyho neortodoxný pohyb?
* Will Wilder zamestná lepší herný plán?
* Bude Wilder frustrovaný?
Zúrivosť:
* Bude sa Fury príliš snažiť o knokaut??
* Je Fury úplne zameraný na box??
* Je jeho porezané oko náchylné na reinjury?
PENECALE PREDPOVEĎ
Obaja bojovníci sú výnimoční herci a ich príslušné vchody do ringu budú dav ohurovať. Elektrina bude pri horúčke pri úvodnom zvonení. S ich familiárnosťou, proces precítenia bude menší ako pri ich prvom stretnutí. Fury bude v strehu pri postupe vpred a Wilder sa pokúsi načasovať jeho postup a dopadnúť protiútoky. Na konci 1st kolo, Fury sa bude posmievať Wilderovi a dôjde k výmene slov.
Furyho neustály pohyb a jednotlivé údery budú Wildera trápiť, pretože jeho protiútoky nájdu väčšinou prázdny vzduch. Nasledujúce kolá budú vzrušujúcou hrou na mačku a myš s menším Wilderom v úlohe mačky, márnosť sa snaží dostať do kúta väčší Wilder.
Wilder nájde úspech so svojím úderom v 6th a 7th náboje a zalomená pravá ruka zachytí Furyho na vrchu hlavy, vyvrátil ho z rovnováhy na plátno. Zúrivosť stúpne, žmurknite v jeho rohu, a vrátiť sa späť do činnosti. Vzrušenie spôsobí, že sa Wilder divoko hojdá a sám padá na plátno, keď mu chýba prehnaná pravá ruka.
S Wilderom, ktorý bol zo svojho úderu zdanlivo unavený z predchádzajúceho kola, Fury sa otočí na juh a pristane niekoľko tvrdých pravých rúk, potom sa odrazte mimo dosah všetkých úderov pultom.
Furyho pohyb a vyššia pracovná rýchlosť prenesú akciu do majstrovských kôl, čo ho opäť viedlo k zjavnému náskoku smerujúcemu do finálového kola.
Rozhodnutie bude tentokrát jednomyseľné, keď obaja Dave Moretti a Glenn Feldman skórovali 115-112 a Steve Weisfeld o odtieň bližšie pri 114-113, všetko v prospech „The Gypsy King“ Tysona Furyho.

I am going to make people respect the Hunter name once again

BLAIR COBBS
“This camp has been amazing. I’ve had nothing but the greatest sparring partners to get prepared for this upcoming bout. Môj tréner Brandon Woodshas been sharpening up my tools and I’m ready to preform at my best on fight night. Everyone can expect to see the best Blair “The Flair” Cobbs possible. This is a sport filled with entertainment and I call myself “The most exciting man in Boxing”.
“On Valentines Day, I’m going to steal the show and all the fans watching on DAZN will see an amazing performance from me.

“It’s been a wonderful experience having the Mexican fans behind me being that they know that’s where I first learned how to box when I fled to Guadalajara, Mexiko. It’s been a hell of a journey coming back to the United States from Mexico, where I learned to fight the Mexican style, always throwing big shots to entertain the fans. Fighting in the amateurs in Mexico, is like fighting in the pros. Sometimes we didn’t use headgear. It was crazy, but it made me the fighter I am today.”
Davis And Gamboa Face Off For WBA Lightweight World Championship In Atlanta’s First World Title Fight In More Than 20 Years Next Saturday, December 28 Live Na SHOWTIME®From State Farm Arena
ATLANTA – December 18, 2019 – Kedy Gervonta Davis a Yuriorkis Gamboaclash for the vacant WBA Lightweight World Championship on December 28 at the award-winning State Farm Arena in Atlanta,they’ll be making history in a long-underserved boxing hotbed that has hosted monumental fights featuring Hall of Famers Muhammad Ali and Evander Holyfield.
“Just to be mentioned with those Hall of Famers is amazing,” povedal Davis. “Som stratil slová. It’s not only big for me, it’s big for boxing in the city and all the other fighters that have the opportunity to fight on the card.”
The Davis vs. Gamboa SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast features two world title bouts and will be the first world championship event in Atlanta in more than 20 leta. Jean Pascal will defend his WBA Light Heavyweight World Championship against former two-division champion Badou Jack in the co-feature of the Premier Boxing Champions event.
Prior to December 28, the last world title fight in Atlanta was unified heavyweight world champion Evander Holyfield’s IBF and WBA defenses against Vaughn Bean on September 19, 1998. SHOWTIME televised that bout live from the since-demolished Georgia Dome where 41,357 fans in attendance saw the Atlanta resident floor Bean in the 10thround en route to a unanimous decision victory.
Despite the strong turnout and festive atmosphere for Holyfield vs. Bean, the Hall of Famer Holyfield fought just four times in Atlanta in his 57 professional bouts spanning nearly three decades. The city did host Holyfield’s first title fight, a bout that is widely considered the best cruiserweight fight in history and one of the last great 15 round fights. Júla 12, 1986, Holyfield challenged WBA Cruiserweight Champion Dwight Muhammad Qawi in a back-and-forth bout that Holyfield won by split decision to capture his first world title.
While Holyfield vs. Qawi is considered the best fight in Atlanta boxing history, the most significant and biggest event in the city was Muhammad Ali’s comeback fight in 1970. Ali had been stripped of his heavyweight title and exiled from boxing after being controversially convicted of draft evasion in 1967. While his case was still under appeal in the U.S. Supreme Court, Ali received a license to fight in Georgia for his first bout in more than three-and-a-half years. Ali stopped Jerry Quarry in the third round on October 26, 1970 at City Auditorium in an event that would mark his triumphant return. Ali’s conviction was overturned the following year in June of 1971, just three months after the “Fight of the Century” with Joe Frazier.
While Georgia has been home to a number of recent world champions, none have fought in Atlanta as titlists. The late two-division world champion Vernon Forrest was born in nearby Augusta and lived in Atlanta, however he never fought as a champion in the state’s capital. Podobne, former two-division champion Paul Williams, also of Augusta, fought just once in Atlanta in 2001 before he became champion.
Davis, who is on-track to sell out his third consecutive venue of the year in three different cities, is hoping to make big time boxing in Atlanta a permanent fixture.
“The spotlight will be on Atlanta,” povedal Davis. “They haven’t had a big fight there in many years. So it’s a dream to bring big time boxing back just like I did in Baltimore. Atlanta welcomed me with open arms for so many years. I always knew I had a fan base and I always wanted to fight here. Now is the perfect time in my career for it to happen.
“Som bojovník, but I’m also a fan. So I’m looking forward to it as much as everyone else. I’ll give it my all, I know Gamboa will give it his all. It’s going to be a great night on December 28.”

For Thompson, it will be his debut fight at 168 libier, after fighting in the light heavyweight division throughout his career. Here is what Thompson had to say about his new division, his December 28 opponent and more, from training camp at Mayweather Boxing Club in Las Vegas:
LIONELL THOMPSON
“I’m not worried about his power. I’ve been in there with big punchers my whole career. I’m just ready to perform. I’m not worried about what he can do. I’m just concentrating on what I can do. Everyone can punch in the pros. One punch from anyone can hurt you. I’m fully focused on being excellent on December 28.
“We’re working hard. It’s a new weight class for me and that’s motivating me even more to be my best. This win is going to do wonders for my life and career. I believe I’ll be victorious in Atlanta. Neblikajú.
“All of my fights are important to me. Uzcategui is just another fighter. I don’t focus on what the perception of Uzcategui is. People say he’s a big puncher, but how do you know if he’s never hit you before? It’s someone’s job to pump their fighter up, but I’m only focused on what I can control.
“This is a huge opportunity for me and I’m definitely thankful to the Mayweather Promotions team for putting me in this position. When I saw that Uzcategui was looking for an opponent, I told (Mayweather Promotions CEO) Leonard Ellerbe that I wanted to fight him and he made it happen.
“I know it’s rare for someone at my age to go down in weight. I feel fresh for my age though. I’m making weight the right way and the healthy way. I think with my training camp and the challenge that Uzcategui presents, it will bring out the best of me on December 28.”

LAS VEGAS (December 10, 2019) – Dve divízie majster sveta Baďo Jack showed off his skills and previewed his upcoming title fight at a Las Vegas media workout Tuesday as he prepares to take on WBA Light Heavyweight ChampionJean Pascal Sobota, December 28 live on SHOWTIME from the award-winning State Farm Arena in Atlanta in a Premier Boxing Champions event.

Jack hit the ring and talked to media at Mayweather Boxing Club as he prepares to face Pascal in a bid to become a three-time champion and capture his second title at light heavyweight. Here is what the workout participants had to say Tuesday:
JACK Badoo
“Mentally I’m better than I’ve ever been. I’m hungrier and I feel like I did the first time I fought for the title. I’m always hungry, but I’m really excited for this fight.
“Sometimes losses make you better. My first loss was an accident, and I became better because of it. The loss to Marcus Browne, it wasn’t the fairest loss, but it’s made me even hungrier. I’m going to go out there and win the fight no matter what.
“People have written Pascal off a couple of times and he always came back. He’s a throwback fighter who definitely knows how to fight. He brings it every time. He’s got more mileage than me, but I can’t overlook a guy like him.
“I’m ready to do whatever it takes to win the fight. cítim 100% fyzicky. The cut was cleared in March, and we’re way past that. I’ve been ready physically and this camp has proved that to me and my whole team.
“Pascal and I sparred before but it was a long time ago and sparring is way different than a real fight. I’ve fought bigger punchers, but you have to respect the power of anyone in the ring. Môže sa stať čokoľvek. You can get caught by someone who’s not a puncher.
“I know that I have a lot left to give this sport. I feel like I’m young for my age. The break between fights and bouncing back from a loss have made me more motivated than ever. I’m ready to go in and give the best performance of my career.”
LEONARD Ellerbe, CEO of Mayweather Promotions
“Badou has a glow about him, just like the old Badou. He looks super-fast in the ring and everything is what we would want to see.
“Badou Jack has shown time and time again that he wants to fight the best and he’s not going to back down no matter what the challenge is. We’ve never had to think twice about it and one setback wasn’t going to stop him from having that mentality.
“Badou is a fighter who always uses his platform to make the world better for those less fortunate. He’s done wonderful things and is really so much more than a champion boxer. It’s an honor to work with him and always a pleasure to watch him perform.”
