The Capitol Heights, Maryland native Russell (30-1, 18 Kos) has held his WBC Featherweight Title since 2015 when he stopped multiple division champion Jhonny Gonzalez to emphatically capture the belt. The 31-year-old is part of one of boxing’s premier fighting families as he is trained by his father Gary Sr., and trains alongside his younger brothers, unbeaten super lightweight Gary Antuanne and undefeated bantamweight Antonio. Russell most recently stopped former champion Kiko Martinez in May on SHOWTIME after previously defeating then unbeaten challenger Joseph Diaz Jr in 2018 in a hometown defense.

“I’m forced to defend my title against another mandatory challenger and I’m going to show on February 8 why none of the other champions want to face me,” said Russell. “I’m the longest current reigning WBC champion but no one has stepped up to the challenge I present. I’m going to take care of business against a strong opponent and display all my skills like I always do.”

The 27-year-old Nyambayar (11-0, 9 Kos) represented his native Mongolia in the 2012 Olympics but now lives in the U.S. and is training out of Las Vegas. Nyambayar ascended up the featherweight rankings after his extensive amateur career with victories over then unbeaten Harmonito Dela Torre and former interim champion Oscar Escandon. Most recently he won his first 12-round decision by defeating former champion Claudio Marrero in January.

“This is going to be an exciting fight for everyone watching on February 8,” said Nyambayar. “Gary Russell Jr. is a great champion who is very talented, but he has the WBC belt and that’s what I want. I’m training hard to win this fight and I will be ready for anything that Russell brings to the ring.”

Rigondeaux(19-1, 13 Kos) will look to move down and capture a title in a second weight class in his SHOWTIME debut. Since turning professional in 2009 after one of the best amateur careers in history, Rigondeaux has showcased masterful technical skills that made him a unified 122-pound world champion and perennial member of the pound-for-pound list. A two-time Olympic gold medalist for his native Cuba, Rigondeaux made his name with victories over the likes of Nonito Donaire, Rico Ramos and Joseph Agbeko. Most recently, Rigondeaux scored an exciting eighth-round stoppage of former champion Julio Ceja in June.

Born in Venezuela and fighting out of Panama, Solía (30-5-1, 14 Kos) učinit će njegov USP. debut on February 8 while riding a five-fight winning streak. Solís captured a super flyweight world title in 2013 amidst a 14-bout unbeaten run. He has lost by decision in his two previous attempts at 118-pound title, including a controversial loss to Jamie McDonnell, which he has bounced back from on his current win streak.

Arboleda (15-1, 13 Kos) has ripped off five straight victories by stoppage since he suffered the only loss of his career against Recky Dulay in 2017. The 25-year-old Arboleda from Curundu, Panama will be fighting in the U.S. for the first time in his career. He’s coming off a knockout victory over Victor Betancourt on August 24.

The 31-year-old Veléz (29-5-1, 21 Kos) has strung together three straight knockout victories since losing to Ryan Garcia in 2018. The Juncos, Puerto Rico resident is coming off a knockout victory over Hector Ruben Ambriz Suarez on July 27 and is looking for another championship opportunity. He came up short in his previous attempt when he fought to a draw against Evgeny Gradovich for the featherweight world title in 2014.

„Trening kamp je super. Ja sam bio trening sa svojom braćom i sestrom na undercard. U subotu navečer smo opet će ući u povijest. Tu nije naslov borba u više 20 godine, a ja sam uzbuđen da se u tom položaju za otvaranje vrata za druge i sebe.

„Ovo je moj prvi put borbe u Atlanti. Sam dolazak ovdje za više od četiri ili pet godina, a ja sam bio u nedostatku za borbu ovdje. Atlanta uvijek pokazuje mi da volim i uvijek sam mislio da mi je borbe ovdje će biti velika. Znao sam da sam veliki fan bazu ovdje.

„U subotu navečer ćemo imati veliku borbu. Hvala Gamboa za uzimanje priliku. U subotu navečer da će biti prepuna akcije borba, pa ćemo vidjeti tko je dobio ono što je potrebno.

„Prilično sam siguran Gamboa gledao moj zadnji borbu. On je samo rekao da nije biti drzak. Znam da je barem gledao da ide u ovu borbu. Vidjet ćemo u subotu navečer. On je bio malo drzak, pa moram ga napraviti plaću.

„Ne mogu reći da li ću dobiti nokaut, ali sam trenirao jako teško i sam bio usredotočen na glavni cilj, koja je dobiti pobjedu. Znam da Gamboa je tvrd protivnik, a on će ga položiti sve na kocku. Ako to ide 12 kola, to ne smeta mi. Tražim da se ovo veliko borba za mene i za fanove.

„Vjerujem da nisam prošlih devet rundi, a ja sam neporažena, tako da mislim da je to dobra stvar za mene. Radim to za tolike godine da vjerujem Gamboa ne mogu donijeti ništa u ring da nisam vidio.

„Znam da moram doći tamo fokusiran, jak i brz. Da vidimo što sve izlazi. Spreman sam i nadam se da je spreman dati navijačima ono što žele vidjeti.

**YURIORKIS Gamboa**

„Moj posao nije da obratite pozornost na bilo trash talk. Moj jedini fokus je da ide tamo u na 150% i dati mu moje sve. Ne zanima o bilo cvrkutanje izvan ringa.

„Povjerenje koje imam dolazi iz moje fokus i trud koji sam stavio u ovaj logor. Znam što moram učiniti prosinca 28. Sve od kampa je odvijao kako sam htjela vodi u borbu noći.

„Ja sam vrlo zahvalan da su ovu priliku da se bori za titulu prvaka u subotu navečer. Moram napraviti najbolje od ove pozicije da sam u. Ja sam još uvijek na razini na kojoj znam da mogu natjecati i pobijediti najbolje borce u sportu.

„Moj fokus i disciplina mi je dopustio da se u položaj da sam danas. Uvijek sam se oslanjao na to teško i to me nije uspio još.

„Gervonta kucaju svoje protivnike van i ne ide prošlosti devetom krugu je super za njega, ali ja ne mislim da ima ikakve veze s mojim životopis. Ja sam suočen jače borce od Gervonta i ja sam bio u mogućnosti da ih tuku. On neće donijeti ništa nisam vidio.

„Mi smo oduševljeni da je borba sletio u Atlanti, a mi vam možemo reći da su navijači će biti vrlo zadovoljni borbi vide subota. Došao sam ovdje pobijediti i ja sam definitivno spreman ići sve 12 kola ako moram.

„Ja sam imao veliku trening kamp, a ja znam što sam u mogućnosti dati u subotu. Dajem moje sve, a zatim neke. Atlanta, budi spreman. Mi ćemo vam dati rat.”

**JEAN PASCAL**

„Ovo je moj prvi put u gradu Atlanti, a možda ću morati premjestiti ovdje, nakon mog pobjede u subotu navečer.

„Ja sam uzbuđen da bi mogli prikazati svoje talente na Showtime je u subotu navečer. Ja sam na vrhu svoje igre i moja cijela ekipa mi je pomogao doći do ovdje.

„Badou Jack je solidan borac s velikim obranu i dobar napad. Ja sam imao veliku kamp u Portoriku. Ja sam bio daleko od svoje obitelji za tri mjeseca i ja sam rat gotov. Uvjerite ugodite.

„Badou i ja sparred, ali to je bilo davno još u 2014. Sparing je sparing. Spremao sam se za Sergej Kovalev. To je bio dobar sjednica, ali u to vrijeme je bio na 168 funti. Ne oslanjaju se na tom sparingu jer je bilo tako davno.

„Znam da Badou je imao dugu otkaz, a on je svjež i da će biti još gladniji. Ja sam uvijek gladan i da će to velika borba u subotu navečer.

„Borim se na najvišoj razini za posljednji 11 godina. To znači nešto. Ja sam poseban borac. Imam stvari koje nitko ne može naučiti, što je brada i srce.”

**BADOU JACK**

„Imao sam veliku trening kamp, koji svi kažu, ali ja stvarno ne osjećam super. Ja sam 36 i osjećam se kao da sam 26 opet. Ja ne mogu čekati za subotu navečer čuti „i novi”.

„Mislim da moramo čekati do subote navečer mi dokazati da sam još uvijek imaju. Bio sam stan od Marcus Browne, bez obzira na rez, ali osjećam se puno bolje to vrijeme nego što je naslov u toj borbi.

„Sve bliskih odluka sam imao u prošlosti, svatko tko je gledao one borbe zna da su to pobjeda. U subotu navečer idem na pobjedu i da će se bez sumnje.

„Gervonta je na mom undercard i sad sam na svoju i jako sam ponosna na njega. On je već zvijezda.

„Ja se brine o sebi. Ne radim ništa izvan ringa ugroziti svoju karijeru. Imam veliki nutricionista koji mi daje sve organsku hranu. Možete razgovarati s mojim snage i hlađenje trener što se tiče kako ja tražim, ali osjećam nevjerojatna.

„Idem da se sve što se bore na vrijeme. Mislim Pascal mogu donijeti najbolje od mene u subotu navečer. Stilovi napraviti borbe i mislim da naši stilovi će mreže.

„Pascal i ja došao da se bori. Marcus Browne je ljevak, a on je više dvosmislen. Tako da je teško usporediti. Pascal je tvrd momak, a ja očekujem ništa manje od teškoj borbi.”

**JOSE UZCATEGUI**

„Zahvalan sam se vratiti u tom položaju i obećavam gužve neće biti razočarani. Ja ću biti oko za dugo vremena, a ja ću dobiti moj naslov svjetskog prvaka leđa.

„Ne govorimo mnogo, ali budući da on kaže imam samo vlast, vidjet ćemo u subotu. danas ne razgovaraju, a zatim pokrenuti oko prstena.

„Nakon što sam nokautirati Lionell Thompson, vidjet ćemo što je Caleb biljka ima za reći nakon toga. Nadam se da će stajati i boriti se. Jedini razlog Plant je prvak jer sam zabrljao.

„Kada sam na moje najbolje, Ja sam najbolji super srednjoj na planeti. Svatko će vidjeti u subotu.”

„Da bi svi koji mi je pomogao i me podržali, Obećajem da neće dopustiti da dečki dolje. Ja sam na planiranje daje svoje najbolje izvedbe u subotu navečer.

„Ja sam bio tamo s većim Punchers u teškoj svjetlo i jedini put sam bio zaustavljen je rano u svojoj karijeri. Ja sam batine dobre momke i neporaženi izgledi da bi mogao bušiti.

„Vjerujem da se kreće prema dolje na težini, i to upravo s nutricionistom, bit će bolje za mene. Svatko može povrijediti. Svi kažu da on može bušiti, ali svatko tko pogodi pravo može povrijediti.

„Ja sam fokusiran na što Perfect. Ne planiram donošenja bilo kakve pogreške. Znam što mogu učiniti. Svatko tko je dijelio prsten sa mnom će reći da sam jedan od najvještijih boraca vani. Floyd Mayweather je čak rekao.

„Od vrha do dna to je vrlo zabavno kartice. Gledajući glavni događaj, kada pogledate Gamboa, znaš što on donosi na stol. Mi ne kupuju ništa o njemu kao stariji borac. On je fenomenalan pedigre i on je vidio sve što je u tom prstenu. To je vrlo opasna borba za Gervonta i to je ono što želimo. Želimo samo najbolje za Gervonta.

„Mislim da je Gamboa se događa da izvedeš najbolje u‘tenk’u subotu navečer. Mi ćemo vam dati zabavan karticu od vrha do dna, sa glavnog događaja koji će završiti u nokaut „.

„Gervonta i Gamboa borba kao da su gladni i kao da su ljuti. Oni se bore kao da je jedna ploča u sredini prstena. U suradnji-glavni događaj, s Badou Jack i Jean Pascal, Ja ću staviti svoje životopise protiv bilo borac u sportu.

Here is what the fighters had to say Thursday from Toyota Arena:

**TONY HARRISON**

“I’m hungrier now because of the layoff since the first fight. It hasn’t affected my mindset for one moment. Sparring has been intense for me. That’s where I got the rust off. I was pushed every day with guys trying to knock me out, just like he’s going to try to do.

“Nothing about me is fake. Everything I say, ja to radim. It comes from my heart. The beef between us is real when it comes to my eyes. I don’t like anything about him. The tables turned after what he did right after the first fight. I’m a humble beast and he woke me up.

“I trained in Florida because I needed to be hungry again. I made the changes for me. I was out a year and I had to get mentally correct. He woke me up. I didn’t need to be in Detroit, they know I’m the champ. Now I’m ready to beat you again on Saturday.

“I had three judges who said I won, so I don’t think I have to change anything in my game plan. Sretan sam. I don’t care about what him and his team is telling him. I don’t have to do anything different.

“He had 12 rounds and never rocked me, never stumbled me. He gave me everything he has. The same Jermell that you have seen in every fight is the same you’ll see Saturday.

“We’re here once again and once again I’m going to exactly what I have to do. This is what needs to be done to him. I love everything about this. I love everything about the talking, the back and forth, and all the noise.

“Jermell knocked out Jorge Cota, so he’s back on top right? I’m going to humble him again, to je moj posao. I’m going to ease him of his pain. He acts like he’s the strongest guy in the world, but he’s up against an animal.

“I just have to be myself and win again. He can’t handle someone who’s himself. I’m rattling him every five seconds. I just have to throw the 1-2 off of that and we’re good.”

**JERMELL Charlo**

“He talks a lot but he has to see me Saturday night. You’re going to get the same thing I gave to Jorge Cota. He just gave me more time getting out of the fight in June. I’m much stronger, much better and much faster now.

“I’m a fighter who lives and learns. I know how to progress. It’s okay for me, because I understand how to go down and come back up. When I come back, I come back way harder. They made the true champ come out of me.

“They know he’s not on my level. They know what I possess and what I do. Him not liking me has nothing to do with what I’m going to do Saturday.

“Nothing he’s said has gotten under my skin. It’s unbelievable to think that you could get inside another man’s head who gets in the ring and puts it all on the line for this.

“He will get what he deserves. I’m a man of my word and everyone knows what I do. I’m ‘Mr. Keep Running Your Mouth.’ To je ono što ja radim.

“I want to knock him out and I’m going to knock him out. I’m going to set up the right shots. I’m going to set up what he’s not going to see. I’m going to show you how to take the belt.

“All I know is that I’m ready to fight. He’s all hype. The only thing fake about him is that injury he put up to get out of the rematch, but we’re here now so its whatever. I’m going to crush him.”

**EFE AJAGBA**

“I know he has experience and he’s lost to a few good fighters. I’m going to stick to my game plan and I look forward to showing it to everyone on Saturday night

“I have to test him with my jab and see how he reacts. He has movement and has good experience. I’m going to let him get tired and find my spots. Ja ne mogu čekati da se tamo.

“We worked really hard in training camp and I know that I’m getting better every day. This is a good test for me and a good opponent who will make me use what we’ve worked on in training.”

**Iago KILADZE**

“I know that’s he’s a strong young fighter, but he doesn’t have experience like me. I have more fights and more tough fights. I think that he’s going to try to come forward, but I’ve worked really hard to stop him.

“I’ve worked on my power and I will show it on Saturday night. I believe in myself and I’m going to show everything I’ve worked on in training camp.

“We’re going to take what we’ve been working on in training and bring it into the fight. We know what he’s uncomfortable with and we’re going to take advantage of it.”

**KARLOS BALDERAS**

“I’m an Olympian for a reason. I’ve faced the best since I was 15. This is a great opportunity for me and I’m going to make the most of it. He knows what’s coming Saturday night.

“I’ve been here before and I’m ready to make a splash. 2020 is my year to shine. I’m ready or the big names. I know what I’m here to do.

“He’s a rugged fighter who comes forward and brings the fight. I’m too experienced for him though. Na kraju, my talent is going to speak for itself. We can say what we want up here, but my talent will speak for itself.”

**RENE TELLEZ GIRON**

“The only loss I had was a fight I believe I won, but you always learn from a fight. Balderas is a good fighter and I respect him, but he’s in for a war.

“I’ve been in tough fights everywhere so I know what it will be like Saturday. He’s quick in the ring and I’ve watched video on him, but it’s nothing that I won’t be able to overcome.

“I know what he can do and I know that I have everything I need to get this victory. I’m going to take advantage of this opportunity and I know that we’re going to steal the show Saturday.”

“I cannot wait to get back in the NEF cage for the fourth time,” said Carr. “This one will bring the house down or tear the roof clean off. It’s an honor to train and fight for team CMBJJ. Be sure to keep your eyes peeled – you’re going to see a lot of us on this card, including our fight team manager, Jesse “Viking” Erickson. I’m looking to set another new NEF record by being the oldest man to win in the NEF cage at the age of 58. You’ve got to see this one, ljudi. Hit me up for tickets!”

Austin Hamilton made his cage debut at “NEF 41” last month in Portland. He lost to Carr’s CMBJJ teammate Nate “The Mule” White (4-0) by first-round technical knockout. He will now have the chance to avenge that loss when he meets Carr on February 8 in Portland.

“I’m really looking forward to getting a chance to redeem myself after the last fight,” said Hamilton. “I have nothing but respect for Garry, as so should anyone else in this game. I only hope that when I’m his age, I can still be doing this!"

GERVONTA DAVIS & YURIORKIS GAMBOA LOOK TO REIGNITE LEGACY OF ATLANTA BOXING HISTORY STARTED BY ALL-TIME GREATS MUHAMMAD ALI & EVANDER HOLYFIELD

***Davis And Gamboa Face Off For WBA Lightweight World Championship In Atlanta’s First World Title Fight In More Than 20 Years Next Saturday, Prosinac 28 Uživo na Showtime***^® ***From State Farm Arena***

**ATLANTA** – Prosinac 18, 2019 – Kada **Gervonta Davis** a **Yuriorkis Gamboa**clash 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,” rekao je Davis. “Ja sam bez riječi. 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 godina. 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 10^th round 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. Srpnja 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. Slično, 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,” rekao je 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.

“Ja sam borac, 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.”
