What Mayweather, Mayweather Promotions CEO Leonard Ellerbe, adestrador Floyd Mayweather Sr. and unbeaten WBC Super Bantamweight Champion Leo Santa Cruz, who will fight in the top pay-per-view undercard bout on Maio 2, dito Martes:

 

Floyd Mayweather, 11-Campión do Mundo

 

“My training camp is basically running the same way. I think it has been smoother than others. I feel very comfortable and happy with my performances. They push me hard at camp. They know what I need.

 

“The timing for this fight is right. This fight is about legacy, fans and family. I surround myself with all of the right people.

 

“I can’t say that this matchup is about hype. This is real life. This is two future Hall of Famers in a mega-fight.

 

“I’ve done record breaking numbers before and it looks like we’re going to do it again.

 

“Everything in life is about timing. I have no regrets that this fight didn’t take place five years ago. I didn’t think it was that big then, but it continued to get bigger and bigger. Not just in boxing, but outside of the sport. Pacquiao has continued to grow outside of the sport. We didn’t need to rush anything.

 

“This is going to be an exciting fight. Our styles are totally different. He is very, very reckless. Every move I make is calculated. I’m always 5-10 steps ahead of my opponent.

 

“We’ll see what happens when the fight starts. But when all is said and done I’m going to be the winner.

 

“Pacquiao is strong and solid but I don’t know if he can make adjustments like I can. I feel tremendous.

 

“This was a difficult fight to make happen, but we made it happen. This fight is one of the biggest ever in boxing.

 

“I’m still going strong. The last time I looked, Estaba 47 e 0.

 

“Anyone can get hit with a great shot, but I can make more adjustments and Manny can’t.

 

“I don’t think Pacquiao expected me to look as strong or big when we faced off (at the L.A. roda de prensa).

 

“I walk around at 150-152 pounds to weigh 147 libras. Other boxers weigh around 160-170 before coming down.

 

“I’ve got one more fight on my contract. I couldn’t be happier with SHOWTIME and CBS.

 

“Las Vegas is the boxing capital. During a Floyd Mayweather fight weekend, you can shop, party, stay out late and do anything you want. The city of Las Vegas has everything.

 

“There were offers to fight other places, but MGM Grand is my home.

 

“Anything I’ve asked of MGM Grand, they’ve done for me in a heartbeat. They’re all about making entertainers and athletes happy.”

 

LEO SANTA CRUZ, WBC Super Bantamweight Campión do Mundo

 

“I’m very grateful for the opportunity to fight on such an unbelievably huge card. I really want to thank Floyd Mayweather.

 

“Any boxer would like to be on this card where millions of people are watching. I’m happy to represent Mexico on this night and on this fight card.

“I look at it as a key opportunity for me to make an even bigger name for myself, which is my goal because one day I want to become a superstar like Floyd. That’s why I train really hard all of the time.

 

“There are no little fights for me. I consider every fighter dangerous. You lose when you think a fighter is not on your level and then he comes in hungrier than you. That will never happen to me.

 

“I don’t know who I’m fighting yet, but I’m sparring different guys with different styles.

 

“There’s always a lot at risk for me. People keep talking about all of these big fights, but if I don’t win now, there will be no big fights in the future.

 

“I know who I want to fight, but I don’t pick my opponents; I leave it up to my team. They make those kinds of decisions. My job is to fight and win.

 

“I have to stay concentrated. I have to maintain focus and concentration. I can’t get ahead of myself. dou 100 percent in training and in the ring. I always want to put on a great fight for the fans.”


LEONARD Ellerbe, CEO de Promocións Mayweather

 

“Boxing is at an all time high at the moment. There are a lot of great things going on. Between this fight and getting boxing back on network television, it’s all great for the sport.

 

“This fight will not only elevate the sport in general, but it will bring in the casual fan to the sport and that’s a great thing.

 

“The impact that Floyd Mayweather has had on this sport is immeasurable. People won’t be able to appreciate that until he retires. He’s done so much for this sport. He’s given fighters a platform to say to other promoters that they deserve the lion’s share of the money. He’s brought more sponsorships to the sport.

 

“Floyd Mayweather is the highest paid athlete in all of sports and he happens to be a boxer.

 

“I think the demand thus far only indicates how big this event is. This is a fight that’s been talked about for five years now and everyone is going to get exactly what they’ve been asking for.

 

“Manny Pacquiao is a great fighter. He’s been in a number of great fights and he’s had a terrific career thus far. These are the two best fighters of this generation and come Maio 2 there will be one man standing and it will be Floyd Mayweather.

 

“There’s no doubt it’s going to be a great fight. Estou realmente animado. I can see firsthand the day-to-day preparation that Floyd puts in and he’s working just as hard as ever. The fans are going to get a great fight that night.

 

“I don’t know what Manny Pacquiao has to do on Maio 2, but I know what Floyd Mayweather has to do. He has to do what he normally does and go in there and execute his game plan and I really expect Floyd to knock him out.”

 

Floyd Mayweather SR., Mayweather’s Trainer & Father

 

“Floyd is as well rounded a fighter as there has ever been, but he’s really still here because of his defense.

 

“Other guys fight with their head and their mind and come up short. It’s his great defense that has kept him on top for so long.

 

“I want you all to see it. It’s so plain and simple what he’s going to do. Even Ray Charles could see it.

 

“I honestly never thought that this was going to happen. So many people were trying to say Floyd was scared. Lets see on Maio 2 who is scared.

 

“I can’t tell you why or how, but here’s an update, Floyd is going to kick his a** and knock Pacquiao out.

 

“I didn’t watch one tape on Pacquiao. There is no reason to study him. He’s not at this level.

 

“Floyd is the best, I must confess. Nothing is going to stop Floyd Mayweather.

 

“Pacquiao’s trainer Coach Roach (Freddie Roach) is lying to you. Trying to trick you all. Floyd’s not getting knocked down in the gym. Floyd is the one knocking people down. Roach blows smoke with no hope.”

No evento principal da Showtime Championship Boxingdoubleheader, Astro mexicano Chavez, JR. (48-1-1, 32 Kos) meets dangerous brawler Andrzej Fonfara (26-3, 15 Kos) nun 12 redonda luz ataque pesado.

 

Na co-metragem 10 rolda, arriba 10 ranked junior welterweight contender Amir I (16-0, 14 Kos) will aim to move one step closer to a world title opportunity when he makes his second start of 2015 against fellow power-puncher Walter Castelo (25-2, 18 Kos).

 

Julio Cesar Chavez, sen dúbida o maior loitador mexicano de todos os tempos, fixo unha aparición durante o exercicio do seu fillo para mostrar o seu apoio e ofrecer palabras de alento.

 

Aquí está o que Chavez Jr., Julio Cesar Chavez and Joe Goossen (adestrador) tiña que dicir Venres no Los Angeles-área de ximnasio:

 

Julio Cesar Chavez Jr., O ex Campión do Mundo

“I am very focused going into this fight. I have changed a lot mentally this past year.

 

“I am fighting [Andrzej] Fonfara now because I like big opponents. I like the challenge of fighting good, hungry fighters. Just because Fonfara doesn’t have the name recognition of other fighters, it doesn’t make him an easy fighter. É duro.

 

“I feel comfortable at light heavyweight. Any time that you can add a couple pounds, you feel better. Although I will be fighting at 175, I feel most comfortable at 168 como un boxeador. Since I have had one year off, it was a better choice to fight at this weight so that I could see how my body feels.

 

“Since I have added a few pounds, I have become a more physical and stronger boxer. The light heavyweight division has very big and physical contenders.

 

“Joe [Goossen] is a great trainer. He is a great motivator to his fighters and makes them better. I have worked very hard with him for the 35 days we spent together in Lake Tahoe.

 

“When I was training with Freddie Roach, it was very different. I think Freddie is a great trainer, but Joe also has a lot of experience and we have made a connection together.

 

“I really liked training in Lake Tahoe. The altitude, o anel, everything I needed was there. I felt very comfortable up there and I would like to come back there to train for a fight again.

 

“I promise a great fight, this is a very exciting fight. Fonfara isn’t an easy opponent, but he has never seen an opponent like me.”

 

 

SR JULIO CESAR CHAVEZ.

“I am here to support and be with my son. I try to give him good advice. I tell him to train and prepare hard, and fortunately he is doing that well.

 

“I think Joe [Goossen] is doing a great job, we are on the same page. We are all focused on him [Chavez Jr.] getting to the fight well prepared. This fight requires great preparation because he is going into the fight at a weight that’s higher than his normal weight and he is facing a very tough opponent.

 

“He must go in 100 percent to win this fight.

 

“I think there has been a 180 degree turn in his career. I see this as a positive because he can really develop his ability and looks very well prepared.

 

“I would’ve liked to have seen him take a tune up fight instead because of his long layoff; I particularly didn’t want this fight.

 

“Xullo [Chavez Jr.] wants credibility in this sport and that’s why he made the decision to take this fight, even though it’s a dangerous decision. He must be very prepared for this fight.”

 

JOE GOOSSEN, Chavez Jr s’ Adestrador

“I’ve been asked over the years who the one fighter was that I would like to work and my answer was always Julio Cesar Chavez Jr.

 

“I’ve always really admired his style. I had known him as a kid, his father is a legend. It had always seemed like a dream job for me, and out of nowhere I got it.

 

“Lake Tahoe was tremendous for training camp. You are isolated and it’s not an easy thing. When you aren’t training you are sitting in a hotel room. You are deprived the comforts of home, but it really gives you that concentration and dedication factor and I think that will interpret into some positive results.

 

“I matured over my years, once I had a kid and a family and I think the same has happened with Julio. Life becomes clearer when you put away the immaturity. You realize that you have a future and if you really want to access what’s available to you, then you are going to have to work hard and dedicate yourself to it.

 

“Going to Lake Tahoe and really working hard is a sign of maturity and I think that’s what Julio is going through right now. He really showed it by leaving his home and spending an extended period of time up there. To me that is a great indicator that he is mature, dedicated and taking this fight very seriously.

 

“Of course I believe Julio is ready to fight Fonfara. The fight was made before I even came on board, but that’s the challenge that I am presented with. You must figure out a good game plan and figure out what you’re up against.

 

“Just because Julio has been out a year doesn’t mean that it’s going to be a cake walk for Fonfara. We went up to Lake Tahoe with one thing in mind, and that’s winning this fight and that’s exactly what we’re going to do.”

I’m grateful to Floyd Mayweather and Mayweather Promotions for giving me this opportunity and giving the Mexican fight fans another reason to cheer on Maio 2.”

 

Mayweather vs. Pacquiao marks the second-consecutive Mayweather pay-per-view event featuring Santa Cruz. In September he wiped out Manuel Roman with a second-round technical knockout as the co-main event of “MAYHEM: Mayweather vs. Maidana 2.” Previously he had fought on the non-televised undercard of MAY DAY: Mayweather vs. Robert Guerrero, with a technical knockout over Alexander Munoz. Adicionalmente, this is the fourth consecutive fight for Santa Cruz at the MGM Grand Garden Arena and his ninth overall in the state of Nevada of his 30 loitas profesionais.

 

In non-pay-per-view undercard action, a pair of Mayweather Promotions’ fighters will look to keep their undefeated records intact. Super welterweight prospect Chris “Sweet” Pearson (11-0, 9 Kos) will square off against tough brawler Dixo El Harrak (12-2-2, 7 Kos) nun ataque 10-round.

The fan-friendly two-division world champion Santa Cruz has defended his super bantamweight title numerous times in impressive fashion on his way to earning a reputation as one of the most exciting fighters in the world. The 26-year-old won his first world title in 2012. En 2013 he won his super bantamweight title, which he now holds. Born in Huetamo, Michoaca de Ocampo, Mexico but fighting out of Los Angeles, Santa Cruz looks to entertain the fans at MGM Grand on Maio 2 when he fights on the highly anticipated Mayweather vs. Pacquiao pay-per-view.

 

An undefeated prospect out of Dayton, Ohio, Pearson is coming off of an impressive unanimous decision in Dececmber 2014 over the hard-hitting Steve Martinez and he looks to keep his momentum going when he fights on Maio 2. Con só 24,, Pearson had recorded eight straight victories inside the distance before his most recent bout. He takes on the 27-year-old El Harrak who fights out of Henderson, Nev. by way of London.

 

A 25-year-old with extreme knockout power, Tabiti last fought in December 2014 and delivered with a first-round knockout of Ernest Reyna. It was his ninth knockout in a row to start his career. Nacido en Chicago, pero loitando fóra de Las Vegas, “The Beast” hopes to make it 10 nocautes en 10 tries when he enters the ring onMaio 2.

Aquí está o que os loitadores tiñan que dicir antes do xoves pesaxe:

 

GALARZA:

“We had some great sparring with guys like Daniel Jacobs, Sadam Ali, Khytrov. They always give me top tough work. That’s top competition right there. Fighting guys like that builds my confidence. If I can hang in there with them then I can hang with anyone. They’re going to help to bring me to another level. I feed off their energy.

 

“Moore is an aggressive fighter, but I’m a come-forward guy, moi. Podo ser agresivo, but smart aggressive. Not just aggressive to punch and throw punches wildly. It’s more being smart, using my defense, my offense and countering when he makes mistakes.

 

“I try not to think about fighting in the main event in Brooklyn, but it helps and it definitely motivates me. Quero dicir, it doesn’t get any better than that – fighting in my home in the main event.

 

“It’s my backyard, so I have to put on a show. It doesn’t give me jitters because I’ve fought in my home before, but the main event is different. I just need to do my job.

 

"Para min, it’s will and skill. I bring my skill level to the next level. How bad do I want it? Am I going to perform well enough to move to the next level and face those top contenders?

 

“I want to face the top prospects so I can earn a spot as a contender. But I need to get through this guy first.”

 

MOORE:

“The main reason why I came all the way to the United States is because here is where boxing is at its best. I’m really excited about this opportunity. Being on SHOWTIME as a main event is huge for me.

 

“It’s not going to be easy, I’m fighting a guy from Brooklyn in Brooklyn in his back yard. But I’ve been in this situation before, I’ve fought abroad many times before and I’m not intimidated. It’s another day at the office for me.

 

“This is it for me, there’s no turning back. Teño que gañar. I just don’t see myself losing tomorrow.

 

“I’ve seen a couple Galarza videos on YouTube. He was more of a brawler at the beginning of his career. Agora, he’s a more disciplined boxer. That can backfire sometimes, something to watch out.

 

“You’ll see fireworks and excitement. I’m not going to look for the knockout. I think it’s a bad strategy to do that. If it comes, it comes. I’ll be looking to win, no matter what. This is a very big fight for me, so it’ll be all about winning, impressing and being at my best.”

 

KHYTROV

“The atmosphere training in Big Bear was amazing. It was one of the best training camps I’ve had. I’ve never been through a camp in the amateurs like that.

 

“I had a chance to meet Gennady (Golovkin) in Big Bear and we spoke and actually became pretty close. We talked about training regime, stuff athletes talk about. I loved it there.

 

“The adjustment from amateurs to pros has been fine. The only difference is handling the different rounds and realizing that you have to pace yourself for these eight, 10, 12 round fights.

 

“The best time to knock a guy out is in the first two rounds when they aren’t warmed up yet. I tried against (Jorge) Melendez but I couldn’t get him out. I just realized I needed to pace myself for the other six rounds and work the body. It was nice to get those rounds and experience against a tough fighter.

 

“I know he (Coley) is a pretty hard-hitting southpaw. I assume that he won’t come forward, but maybe he’ll surprise me. He has a few knockouts, but I’m going to watch him, learn and adapt.

 

“I faced southpaws in the amateurs. His style won’t give me any issues. I could even switch to a southpaw stance if I need to.

 

“Personally, health allowing, I think I should be a contender by the end of 2015. But I put all my trust into my team. They know best. My job is just to train and prepare for everything they put in front of me.

 

“Yes, 100 percent I’d like to face Gennady. To be the best you have to fight the best. And right now I consider him to be the best 160 pound fighter in the world.”

 

COLEY:

“Fighting on TV for me is a big deal. When I was little, my father used to throw fight parties to watch big fights and tomorrow he’s throwing one for me. That alone makes me so proud. I’ll have my own viewing party. I’m fighting on national television, na canle Showtime. That’s such of big deal for me. This is my breakout. This is the sign I’m made it.

 

“I stay in shape all year round, but for the past two months I’ve been taking it to the extreme. Training hard, sparring even harder.

 

“I’ve been working very hard. I’ve sparred with world champions and I’ve been doing well. I think this is my time to step up and show everybody how good I am.

 

“I’m predicting there will be a stoppage in the later rounds.”

DEREVYANCHENKO:

“The competition I faced in the WSB was, for the most part, the best fighters in the world. Moi lonxe, the guys I’ve faced in the pros don’t have that resume, that skill level. So I think I’ve fought in more than just four pro fights.

 

“I’m working hard in the gym to make the transition from amateur to pro. I’m taking it step-by-step. I don’t want to jump the gun or make a mistake too fast. I’m looking forward to increasing my level of opposition gradually.

 

“I’ve seen some of his (Campa) loitas. In some fights he boxes different than in other fights. We’ll see what he does in the ring and adjust accordingly. But I don’t think he can bring anything that I haven’t seen before. But he’s a Mexican fighter so we know he won’t give up.

 

“I’m going to show what I’m worth. I’ve been preparing for this my whole life. Now is my chance to build my fan base and show what I can do in the ring.”

CAMPA:

“This is my first fight in the U.S., and I’m planning to take full advantage of this opportunity.

 

“My training was intense, a lot of running, especially in the mountains. I worked on my conditioning and my speed. I’m at the best shape I’ve ever been.

 

“When I found out about my opponent, I watched video on him and I know I’m better than him. I think my main advantages are age and speed. My opponent is 29, Eu son 23. I’m younger and quicker and I’m not about to make it easy for him.

 

“I’m going to read him in the early rounds and, if I feel he’s not hurting me, I’ll go the distance.

 

“This fight is a huge step-up for me. I see it as key fight. I feel it might be a make or break for me. We’ll see, I might get a chance to deliver a knockout and that might spark some attention in the boxing world.”

From StubHub Center In Carson, Califa.

Nova York (Abril 8, 2015) – Arriba 10 ranked super lightweight contender Amir I (16-0, 14 Kos) will aim to move one step closer to a world title opportunity when he makes his second start of 2015 against fellow power-puncher Walter Castelo (25-2, 18 Kos) in the 10-round co-feature of Showtime Championship Boxing en Sábado, Abril 18, LIVE on ALTURA DE COMEZAR (10 p.m. E/7 p.m. PT)

 

In the main event from StubHub Centro en Carson, Calif., Astro mexicano Julio Cesar Chavez(48-1-1, 32 Kos) faces exciting brawler Andrzej Fonfara (26-3, 15 Kos), of Chicago by way of Poland, nun 12 redonda luz ataque pesado.

 

Unha das máis medran perspectivas do boxeo, a 24-year-old Imam xa nocauteou 14 da súa 16 opoñentes profesionais desde que se converteron en profesionais 2011. O Albany, N.I., native is coming off a fifth-round TKO of Fidel Maldonado Jr., in a brawl on Xan. 17 on SHOWTIME that featured five total knockdowns. Eu teño, currently ranked No. 4 in the WBA and No. 7 no WBC, touched the canvas for the first time in his career but bounced back and relied on his power to floor Maldonado a total of four times.

 

“I know Walter is a tough fighter, he comes forward and throws a lot of punches,” Imam dixo. “But I will figure him out quickly once I get inside the ring. I’m working on a lot of different things for this training camp, lots of tricky moves that are going to excite the fans. It’s great to fight outdoors at StubHub Center and to showcase my talents on SHOWTIME. I’m here to entertain and prove I’m ready for that title shot.”

 

Castelo (25-2, 18 Kos), de Managua, Nicaragua, has won nine straight and KO’d six of his last seven opponents. The 26-year-old has fought mostly in Nicaragua and the only blemishes on his record are a split-decision loss in his pro debut and a controversial 2008 split decision on the road against former world champ Vicente Mosquera en Panamá. Castelo, who has knocked out his last four opponents inside of four rounds, will make his second start in the U.S. after winning his American debut via first round TKO last October.

 

“Estou moi animado para esta loita. I’ve been training hard for months now and can’t wait for the bell to ring,” Castillo said. “Where I’m from we have a history of great warriors like Alexis Arguello and Rosendo Alvarez and on Abril 18 I’m looking to moving one step closer to adding my name to that list. Imam may be undefeated but I’m ready for a war.”

VIDEO PREVIEW LINK: http://s.sho.com/1c5cLDQ

 

“I had a hard life so yes, I am angry with him.” – Julio Cesar Chavez, JR.

“I had all Mexico and the world at my feet at that time. But it still didn’t fill the void…So what was it that I looked for? The easiest and stupidest things…drugs and alcohol.” – Julio Cesar Chavez, Sr.

 

Nova York (Abril 7, 2015) –The Sports Emmy® Serie premiada ALL ACCESS returns to examine the life of Mexican superstar Julio Cesar Chavez, JR., as he prepares to make his Showtime Championship Boxing® debut against dangerous brawler Andrzej Fonfara en Sábado, Abril 18, vivir ALTURA DE COMEZAR (10 p.m. E/ 7 p.m. PT) do StubHub Centro en Carson, Califa.

ALL ACCESS: Chávez is written and reported by SHOWTIME Sports contributor Mark Kriegel. Author of acclaimed biographies “The Good Son: The Life of Ray ‘Boom Boom’ Mancini” and “Pistol: The Life of Pete Maravich,” Kriegel has long focused on the conflicts and complexities that beset fathers and sons in sports.

 

With unprecedented access to the young star–Mexico’s first and only middleweight world champion–and his famous father, ALL ACCESSuncovers the stormy yet loving relationship between Junior and his legendary father.

 

No question remains unanswered in a series of interviews at Junior’s high-altitude camp in Lake Tahoe, where his father once trained. What was it like to grow up as the son of Mexico’s greatest fighter? What price does a fighter pay for drugs and alcohol? And what does it do to his family?

 

Only the ending remains in doubt: Is Junior being punished for the sins of his father, or is he doomed to repeat them?

 

“Fame can be a disease, like addiction,” says Kriegel. “And this family has battled both. Junior and Senior weren’t merely candid. They were confessional. E, Eu creo que, courageous, too.”

 

Con ALL ACCESS cameras entrenched in camp, viewers will meet three generations of Mexico’s most famous fighting family as the 29-year-old Junior navigates a crossroads of his career.

Invicto Brooklynites FRANK Galarza, Ievgen KHYTROV E SERGIY DEREVYANCHENKO Resaltado en ShoBox: THE NEW Generation tripleheader AT Deportes Aviator centro de eventos e IN BROOKLYN, N.I..

Leave a comment

 

 

Venres, Abril 10 En 10 p.m. E/PT; Directo na canle Showtime®

Nova York (Abril 2, 2015) - Brooklyn nativo, invicto Frank "Notorious" Galarza (16-0-2, 10 Kos) volta ao arena para loitar contra a Bélxica de Sheldon "The Closer" Moore (13-2-1, 9 Kos) nun oito redonda welterweight super duelo que encabeza ShoBox: A Nova Xeración tripleheader on Venres, Abril 10 do Aviator Sports e Centro de Eventos en Brooklyn, N.I., vivir ALTURA DE COMEZAR (10 p.m. E/PT, atrasado na Costa Oeste).

 

Galarza, considerado por moitos como "The Brooklyn Rocky," segue a compensar o tempo perdido. Súa impactante segunda rolda KO vitoria sobre o favorecido John Thompson na súa ShoBox: A Nova Xeraciónestrea, was one of the most memorable knockouts of the year. Galarza has been on a tear since.

 

"Galarza foi un achado fortuito por ShoBox,'' Historiador do boxeo recoñecido e ShoBox analista experto Steve Farhood. "Desde que chat Thompson, el venceu catro veces, e mirou cada vez mellor. O nivel da súa oposición non permitir que fose chamado un candidato aínda, pero fixo grandes avances. Gustaríame pensar na idade 29 ía tentar facer deste un gran ano para el. "

 

A loita Galarza-Moore é un dos tres programados oito polivalentes nunha cerimonia que ten un sabor distinto Brooklyn a el. Invicto medios poder de perforación Ievgen "O ucraíno Lion" Khytrov (9-0, 9 Kos) e stablemate, blue-chip super-medios perspectiva Sergiy "The Technician" Derevyanchenko (4-0, 3 Kos / World Series of Boxing: 23-1, 7 Kos) tamén residen en Brooklyn.

Khytrov asume compañeiro invicto Aaron "Heavy Metal" Coley (9-0-1, 6 Kos), de Hayward, Calif., mentres que o Derevyanchenko mundo do ranking ha caixa xa batido A Área "Ameaza / Threat" Campa (13-1, 1 NC, 9 Kos), de Sonora, México.

Os ingresos para o evento, promovido pola DiBella Entertainment en asociación con loita Promotions Inc. and New Legend Boxing are on sale and priced at $100, $70 e $35. Os ingresos poden ser adquiridos por teléfono DiBella Entertainment en (212) 947-2577. As portas abren ás 6:15 p.m. E, coa primeira loita marcada para 6:45 p.m. E.

 

Para Galarza, quen está subindo no ránking mundial, O recente incremento non podería vir en mellor momento. A forte físicamente, agresiva boxer-perforado, Galarza comezou tarde no boxeo e tiña só 11 loitas afeccionadas.

 

"O tempo para min é sempre agora,'' Dixo el. "O meu primeiro ShoBox loitar definir a plataforma para me. Non só gañou unha loita que absolutamente ninguén pensou que podía, Gañei o en grande. Eu fixen unha declaración. Eu continuou a crecer e sentir que comece mellor desde que loita. Pero eu estou aquí para amosar á xente o que eu estou pensando, seguir a adestrar moito e só leva-la aos poucos, unha loita de cada vez.

 

"É emocionante para loitar no evento principal televisado no meu curro. Nunca estiven máis motivado para un xogo. Quero agradecer a Showtime por darme outra oportunidade de loitar ShoBox.''

 

En termos de estilo, Galarza cre que esta é unha gran disputa para el. "Moore parece fisicamente grande e forte, resistente e con fame e vén para loitar,'' Dixo el. "El é agresivo e iso é a mellor parte para iso - debe facer para unha gran loita. Podo ser agresivo, moi. Sei que está a benvida a loitar e todo o mundo sabe que eu non estou movendo cara atrás, por iso espero que fogos de artificio.

 

"Eu veño para loitar cada vez, especialmente na canle Showtime, en ShoBox onde eles dan-lle adversarios de bo calibre que son esperamos para facer un concerto e esperamos para facer unha boa loita.

 

"É en Brooklyn, miña cidade natal, e quero entreter a xente. Este é o meu show, o meu regreso a casa, e eu vou defender a miña propia casa. Eu teño un traballo a facer en abril 10, pero despois diso, os grandes nomes da división van ser forzados a manexar comigo. Eu son 29 e poñendo todo na liña. ''

 

No seu último ShoBox aspecto, Galarza gañou unha decisión de oito unánime redonda sobre invicto Sebastien Bouchard (8-0 indo en) en maio 16, 2014, polos correas de 78-73 e 77-74 dúas veces, a pesar de ter un punto deducido por un golpe baixo na rolda final.

 

O adversario de Galarza, 27-anos de idade, Moore, está facendo a súa ShoBox estrea e cuarta inicio nos Estados Unidos, onde está 1-1-1. El apareceu por última vez no U.S. en xuño 2012.

"Esta é unha grande oportunidade para min e para a miña carreira, mans para abaixo esta é a maior loita da miña vida,"Moore dixo. "É unha loita debe-gañou para min. Teño visto algunhas das loitas de Galarza e estou plenamente seguro de que teño o que fai falta para perturbalo lo no seu curro. Este é un soño feito realidade para min, loitando na televisión nacional, e eu pensando en dar a coñecer o mundo do boxeo que eu pertenzo ao nivel da élite desa división.

"O meu estilo é sempre agresivo. Eu gusto de camiñar ata o meu adversario. Galarza ten boa desprazamento e bo alcance. Pero esa loita vai ser a primeira loita en que eu non teño que traballar na parte durante a preparación. Eu son 100 por cento dedicado ao deporte e preparado para ir o 10 de abril "

 

O 5-foot-10 Moore gañou súas dúas últimas loitas, o último en un combate no primeiro round sobre Janos Varga último Decembro. 20 en Bélxica. Así como Galarza, el ten un inicio tardío no boxeo e tivo unha carreira afeccionada limitada (27 extremos). Fixo kickboxing cando era 15, pero non tivo a súa primeira loita afeccionada ata a idade de 19.

 

Khytrov (pronunciadas HE-custos) era un afeccionado fenomenal con reportedly 500 loitas afeccionadas. El foi o 2011 campión mundial afeccionado e un representante para a Ucraína no 2012 Xogos Olímpicos.

 

Esta será a súa segunda aparición no ShoBox. Na súa estrea en Xan. 9, el destruíu o previamente invicto Maurice Louishomme, vencendo por nocaute técnico na terceira rolda. Acendeu-se Louishomme coa man dereita e uppercuts para o corpo, cambaleando-lo en varias ocasións nun one-sided caso que estaba parado en 0:24 na terceira rolda.

 

Agresivo, ofensiva de espírito Khytrov loitou un total de 27 rounds en nove partidos, unha media de tres rounds unha loita - e que inclúe a súa TKO carreira-mellor oitava rolda sobre sempre difícil Puerto Rican Jorge Melendez en marzo 6.

 

"Ievgen [pronunciado yev-gin, cun disco G] é tan fan-friendly un loitador como vai atopar, nunca dá un paso atrás, mira para machucar seu adversario con cada zócolo,'' Farhood dixo. “After nine fights, mostra todos os sinais de que vai ser un candidato ao título un ano a 18 meses. Seu último, unha paralización de máis de Jorge Melendez, Foi unha xogada ousada para asumir un adversario perigoso e experimentado e el levou para fóra, rompe-o para abaixo. O que isto quere dicir-me?"

 

Un dos mellores perspectivas no boxeo, o 5-foot-11, 26-year-old Khytrov movida a un ritmo moito máis rápido que a maioría das outras perspectivas, nesta fase das súas carreiras. Fixo o seu debut profesional en idade 25 en decembro 2013 e loitou seis veces en 2014. Esta é a súa terceira loita de 2015. Todas as súas loitas foron en Estados Unidos.

Khytrov, que se cambiou para o Brooklyn logo o 2012 Xogos Olímpicos, está ansioso para Abril 10 chegar. "Estou moi animado para volver aos cuadriláteros en Abril 10, especialmente sendo que a loita está o meu fogar adoptivo de Brooklyn,'' Dixo el. "Quero agradecer aos meus promotores DiBella Lecer e Combate Promotions Inc. e meu director Al Haymon por esta oportunidade para unha vez máis amosar as miñas habilidades en ShoBox.

"Espero unha loita dura de Coley, quen, como eu, nunca foi derrotado como un profesional. Sabiamos que 2015 ía ser un gran ano para min e para a miña carreira, e prometo aínda outro rendemento espectacular en Abril 10 mentres seguimos a subir as filas da miña división ".

Khytrov compara o seu estilo para un dos grandes nomes de todos os tempos do boxeo. “Eu teño un estilo de Roberto Durán. Eu son un Brawl all-out,'' Dixo el. "Eu atacar o corpo. Eu amo os focos TV. ''
