GERVONTA “TANK” DAVIS: TRAINING CAMP QUOTES
In Super Middleweight World Title Unification in Main Event
Tickets for the event promoted by Mayweather Promotions and DiBella Entertainment, ಆರಂಭವಾಗುವುದು $25. ಅವರು ಆನ್ಲೈನ್ ಕೊಳ್ಳಬಹುದು (www.ticketmaster.com,www.barclayscenter.com) ಅಥವಾ ಕರೆದು 1-800-745-3000. ಟಿಕೆಟ್ ಬಾರ್ಕ್ಲೇಸ್ ಸೆಂಟರ್ನಲ್ಲಿ ಅಮೆರಿಕನ್ ಎಕ್ಸ್ ಪ್ರೆಸ್ ಬಾಕ್ಸ್ ಆಫೀಸ್ ನಲ್ಲಿ ಕೂಡ ಲಭ್ಯವಿದೆ. ಗುಂಪು ರಿಯಾಯಿತಿಗಳು 844-BKLYN-ಜಿಪಿ ಕರೆದು ಲಭ್ಯವಿದೆ.
ಡೇವಿಸ್, 22, overcame a childhood filled with hardships to become a prolific amateur and has been virtually unstoppable as a professional. ಒಂದು ಹವ್ಯಾಸಿ (ನಡುವೆ 2006-2012), he entered nine tournaments and came away with gold medals in all but one. He won gold in his last four tourneys, ಸೇರಿದಂತೆ 2012 National Golden Gloves Championship at 123 ಪೌಂಡ್.
Since going pro in February 2013, the strong, aggressive-minded southpaw has played smash-mouth against mostly outclassed opponents, ವಿಜೇತ 13 ತನ್ನ 15 knockouts inside four rounds. To many, Davis resembles a young, smaller version of Mike Tyson in the way he walks down foes, gets on the inside and unloads lethal hooks and uppercuts. He’s gone into the ninth round once and into the sixth round twice. A winner of six straight by knockout, ಡೇವಿಸ್’ lone fight to go the distance came in his ninth outing, a six-round nod over German Meraz, who went down twice, ಅಕ್ಟೋಬರ್ನಲ್ಲಿ 2014. Davis is coming off a 0:41, first-round KO over Mario Macias last ಜೂನ್ 3.
You’ve been a professional for less than three years, yet you’re less than two weeks away from getting a crack at a world title. What are your thoughts about that?
“It’s been my goal to fight for a world title. ನಾನು ಬಹಳ ಭರವಸೆ ನೀಡಿದೆ. I’ve worked hard in the gym for over two months for this fight. I’ve put in the hours. I’ve had a great camp with great sparring. I’m not surprised the fight is almost here. This is perfect timing for me.”
Have you done anything differently in this camp?
“Maybe some little things, but not really. We take training seriously. We take all our opponents very seriously. But I have to treat it as just another fight, against another opponent. We know Pedraza is a world champion, a great fighter that comes to fight and we give him his respect as a world-class fighter. I know he’s going to be ready. He’s always ready when it’s time to get in there and do his job. But I’m prepared for him. He doesn’t know what we bring to the table.”
Are you surprised you’re not favored? When was the last time you were an underdog?
“I’m the underdog because he’s the world champion, that’s the reason. Other than that, I feel deep inside that he’s the underdog, but that’s just my assessment. He won’t be showing me anything I haven’t already seen before.
“I’ve never been the underdog in a fight, so this is a first for me.”
When’s the last time you lost a fight?
“I’m competitive all around and don’t like losing. I can’t remember exactly the last time I lost a fight, maybe it was three years ago. All I know for sure is that my mind entering this fight is all about winning.”
Critics talk of your level of competition, or lack of. What’s your opinion of the fighters Pedraza’s successfully defended against lately?
“I’m not taking anything away from Pedraza; he’s beat Stephen Smith and Edner Cherry but those guys don’t bring the power, ವೇಗ, elusiveness and angles that I do. I’m not downgrading anybody, but they’re mostly average.”
Are you looking at this as an opportunity to showcase your overall skills, durability, ಇತ್ಯಾದಿ?
“A lot of people don’t realize the skills and talent that I have. They see me just going in there like a little Tyson or someone like that. But I have all the tools. I know how to box, how to move my feet. I have good hand speed. I work my angles and things like that. I’m an overall sound fighter, ಬಾಕ್ಸರ್-ಗುದ್ದಾಳಿಗಿಂತ.
“I think this will be a wakeup call for boxing, a chance to show that I’m the one. But I’m not coming to be just the top guy. I want to be a superstar and bring joy and entertainment to the sport. Pedraza will bring out the best in me and I will steal the show.”
How do you manage to stay in the moment, and not look back, or can you?
“I’m so thankful that I am part of a strong team, and that I have such a great team. I believe we have the greatest team in boxing. They keep me grounded, focused. They keep me from getting distracted. We all know what the main goal is. I can’t do it all myself, my coach can’t do it all himself, my manager can’t do it all himself. We believe totally in each other as a team. I listen to everything they say.”
How much is your past a motivation, or is it? When you look back at your life do you have memories or nightmares?
“I believe I’ve accomplished a lot. Me just being alive today, me not being in jail or in trouble outside the ring, it’s hard from where I come from. But it’s all helped me handle situations well. I’m so used to dealing with situations. I’m older and know what’s right from wrong. There’s never any pressure when I fight. I’ve won so many fights already I know what to do when I get in the ring.”
How long have you known Floyd? When did you meet him and how would you describe your relationship? What does it mean for Floyd to be your promoter?
“The first time I talked to Floyd (at length) was at the Adrien Broner-Shawn Porterfight (ಜೂನ್ 20, 2015). Me and Adrien, we’re friends and he flew me out to Las Vegas for the fight. I worked out at the Mayweather gym and Floyd liked the way I fought, my heart. But the first time I actually met and talked to him came when one of Floyd’s press tours came to Washington, ಡಿಸಿ.
“Floyd has always had a major impact on me and my career. I grew up around him. All of us wanted to be like him. Like Tyson and Ali were to the generations of boxers before me, Floyd was our superstar. For him to bring me under his wing, to fight for him, is unbelievably great.”

DeGale worked out and answered questions for media at the Stonebridge Boxing Club as he nears his third straight fight in the United States, this time looking to return to the UK as a unified world champion.
Here is what DeGale had to say ಮಂಗಳವಾರ:
ಜೇಮ್ಸ್ DeGale
“This is the best fighting the best and this fight will prove who’s the best in the division — and I believe I am the number one super middleweight on the planet.
“Unification fights like this are still rare, never mind the best fighting the best, and me and Jack both wanted the fight. We both want to prove who is the best and everyone is in for a treat on ಜನವರಿ 14.
“I’ve got the best trainer in the world in Jim McDonnell; together we won the world title and now we’re going to unify the title. I’m going to win in style and do the business in the big New York City and come away with both belts to bring back to London.
“Jack’s a serious fighter, he’s a world champion, he has something I want. The winner of this will be the number in the division.
“Growing up, ಜೋ ಕಾಲ್ಜಾಗೆ, and Prince Naseem Hamed, they’re the ones I used to watch and I’d think, ‘I can’t wait to do that.’ Calzaghe’s one of my favorite fighters. He’s a bit similar to me. He’s a southpaw, ಹೊಡೆತಗಳ ಬಹಳಷ್ಟು ಎಸೆಯುತ್ತಾರೆ. He’s another one who didn’t get the full credit he was due until after he retired. But that’s how boxing is.
“I’ve got to perform. My last couple of performances haven’t been vintage James DeGale. This is the best fighting the best, the champ fighting the champ: this is proper.
“I don’t get the respect. I made a bit of history. If I unify the division, going across the pond, no one’s ever done that from Britain.
“This is the one. I get love and support, I do have my fans, but it just feels like I look around at different fighters who haven’t done half what I’ve done and they get so much more recognition.
“I don’t get the credit: the full recognition, I don’t. But after this fight, people will start respecting me and knowing I’m the best.”
