LAS VEGAS – (Apríl 15, 2015) – Meira en 200 accredited press members from around the world descended upon Mayweather Boxing Club for Þriðjudag Floyd Mayweather Media Day. It was the 11-time world champion Mayweather’s first and only open training session before his welterweight world championship unification mega-showdown against Manny Pacquiao á Laugardagur, Maí 2, at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas live on pay-per-view.

 

Superstars Mayweather (47-0, 26 Kos) og Pacquiao (57-5-2, 38 Kos) is promoted by Mayweather Promotions and Top Rank Inc., the live pay-per-view telecast will be co-produced and co-distributed by HBO Pay-Per-View® and SHOWTIME PPV® sem hefst á9:00 p.m. OG/ 6:00 p.m. PT.

 

Several dozen television camera crews, dagblað dálkahöfundar, box rithöfundar, útvarpsstöð, web reporters, photographers and (vídeó) bloggers watched as Mayweather went through the paces during a 90-plus minute workout that included working the heavy bag, smacking the speed bag, hitting the mitts, jumping rope, stretching and doing calisthenics.

 

Before a training session streamed in high definition across multiple platforms, þ.mt í gegnum gervihnött fóður, YouTube og félagslega fjölmiðla, Mayweather answered questions from the media inside a specially-constructed tent in a parking lot outside the gym.

 

What Mayweather, Mayweather Promotions forstjóri Leonard Ellerbe, þjálfari Floyd Mayweather Sr. and unbeaten WBC Super Bantamweight Champion Leo Santa Cruz, who will fight in the top pay-per-view undercard bout on Maí 2, sagði Þriðjudagur:

 

Floyd Mayweather, 11-Tími heimsmeistari

 

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, Ég var 47 og 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. Fréttamannafundur).

 

I walk around at 150-152 pounds to weigh 147 £. 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 heimsmeistari

 

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. ég gef 100 percent in training and in the ring. I always want to put on a great fight for the fans.


LEONARD Ellerbe, Forstjóri Mayweather Promotions

 

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 Maí 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. Ég er virkilega spennt. 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 Maí 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 Maí 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.

VAN NUYS, Calif.(Apríl 13, 2015) – Fyrrum heimsmeistari Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. hélt fjölmiðla líkamsþjálfun á föstudaginn in front of a packed house at Ten Goose Boxing Gym in Van Nuys, Calif., as the Mexican superstar prepares to make his Showtime CHAMPIONSHIP Hnefaleikar® Frumraun á Laugardagur, Apríl 18, á að StubHub Center í Carson, Calif., lifa á Showtime(10 p.m. OG/7 p.m. PT).

 

Í aðalkeppni af Showtime CHAMPIONSHIP Hnefaleikardoubleheader, Mexican Superstar Chavez, Jr. (48-1-1, 32 Kos) meets dangerous brawler Andrzej Fonfara (26-3, 15 Kos) í 12-umferð ljós þungavigtar lota.

 

Í 10-umferð samhliða lögun, efst 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 Castillo (25-2, 18 Kos).

 

Julio Cesar Chavez, að öllum líkindum mesta Mexican bardagamaður allra tíma, gert betur á æfingu sonar síns til að sýna stuðning og bjóða orð hans hvatningu.

 

Hér er það sem Chavez Jr., Julio Cesar Chavez and Joe Goossen (þjálfari) þurfti að segja Föstudagur á Los Angeles-svæðinu ræktina:

 

JULIO CESAR CHAVEZ JR., Fyrrverandi heimsmeistari

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. Hann er sterkur.

 

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 sem Boxer. 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, hringurinn, 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.

 

“Júlí [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’ Trainer

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.

All the fans watching on fight night will be in for a great show when Leo Santa Cruz enters the ring.

 

I’m so honored to be the lead-in for Mayweather vs. Pacquiao and I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to do so on Cinco De Mayo weekend,” sagði Santa Cruz. “This will be a huge night for boxing and I plan on showing everybody that I’m all about action-packed fights. 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 Maí 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 ofMAYHEM: 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. Auk, 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 faglega berst.

 

In non-pay-per-view undercard action, a pair of Mayweather Promotionsfighters will look to keep their undefeated records intact. Super welterweight prospect Chris “Sweet” Pearson (11-0, 9 Kos) will square off against tough brawler Sagði El Harrak (12-2-2, 7 Kos) í 10-umferð lota.

 

“Ég er ungur, hungry fighter who has big aspirations in this sport,” said Pearson. “Maí 2 is a great opportunity to show the world why I will be a future world champion.

 

Meira, cruiserweight knockout artist Andrew “The Beast” Tabiti (9-0, 9 Kos) takes on an opponent to be determined in eight rounds of action.

 

I can’t wait for this opportunity to get in the ring and show off my power on Maí 2,” said Tabiti. “I’m always ready to put on a show for the fans and I hope they’re ready to see a big knockout.

 

Mayweather Promotions is dedicated to putting on the biggest events for fans and with the inclusion of these great young fighters we are ensuring that once again,” Said Leonard Ellerbe, Forstjóri Mayweather Promotions. “Chris Pearson and Andrew Tabiti are future world champions who will have a chance to perform on the biggest stage in all of boxing on Maí 2, and I can’t say enough bout how excited we are to have Leo Santa Cruz on the card as the lead in for Mayweather vs. Pacquiao.”

 

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. Í 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 Maí 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 Maí 2. Á bara 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. Fæddur í Chicago en berjast af Las Vegas, “The Beast” hopes to make it 10 knockouts í 10 tries when he enters the ring onMaí 2.

Hér er það sem bardagamenn þurfti að segja áður en fimmtudaginn innvigtun:

 

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, of. Ég get verið árásargjarn, 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. Ég meina, 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.

 

"Fyrir mig, 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. Ég verð að vinna. 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. Nú, 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, á 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. Hingað til, 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) berst. 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, Ég er 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.”

UNDEFEATED 140-POUND CONTENDER AMIR IMAM TO FACE WALTER CASTILLO IN CHAVEZ-FONFARA CO-FEATURE APRIL 18 ON SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING®

Laugardagur, Apríl 18, LIVE á Showtime® (10 p.m. OG/7 p.m. PT)

From StubHub Center In Carson, Calif.

NEW YORK (Apríl 8, 2015) – Top 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 Castillo (25-2, 18 Kos) in the 10-round co-feature of Showtime CHAMPIONSHIP Hnefaleikar á Laugardagur, Apríl 18, LIVE on Showtime (10 p.m. OG/7 p.m. PT)

 

In the main event from StubHub Center í Carson, Calif., Mexican Superstar Julio Cesar Chavez(48-1-1, 32 Kos) faces exciting brawler Andrzej Fonfara (26-3, 15 Kos), of Chicago by way of Poland, í 12-umferð ljós þungavigtar lota.

 

Einn af hraðast vaxandi horfur box er, 24 ára gamall Imam hefur slegið út 14 hans 16 professional opponents since turning pro in 2011. The Albany, N.Y., native is coming off a fifth-round TKO of Fidel Maldonado Jr., in a brawl on Jan. 17 on SHOWTIME that featured five total knockdowns. Ég hef, currently ranked No. 4 in the WBA and No. 7 í 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 sagði. “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.

 

Castle (25-2, 18 Kos), af 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 í Panama. Castle, 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.

 

“Ég er mjög spennt fyrir þessari baráttu. 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 Apríl 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.

Julio Cesar Chavez, Jr. & His Legendary Father In Training Camp, Preparing For His SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING Debut on Saturday, Apríl 18, lifa á Showtime

 

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.

 

NEW YORK (Apríl 7, 2015) –The Sports Emmy® Verðlaun-aðlaðandi röð ALL ACCESS returns to examine the life of Mexican superstar Julio Cesar Chavez, Jr., as he prepares to make his Showtime CHAMPIONSHIP Hnefaleikar® debut against dangerous brawler Andrzej Fonfara á Laugardagur, Apríl 18, lifa á Showtime (10 p.m. OG/ 7 p.m. PT) frá StubHub Center í Carson, Calif.

 

ALL ACCESS: Chavez frumflutt Föstudagur, Apríl 10, strax eftir lifandi ShoBox: The New Generation tripleheader at 10 p.m. OG/PT.

 

ALL ACCESS: Chavez 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. Og, Ég held, courageous, too.”

 

Með 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.

 

ALL ACCESS: CHAVEZ premieres on SHOWTIME with multiple encore presentations. ALL ACCESS will be available on SHOWTIME ON DEMAND®, Showtime hvenær sem® og á netinu áSHO.com/Sports.

Föstudagur, Apríl 10 Á 10 p.m. OG/PT; Live á Showtime®

NEW YORK (Apríl 2, 2015) - Brooklyn-innfæddur, ósigraður Frank "Notorious" Galarza (16-0-2, 10 Kos) skilar til hringinn til að berjast Belgíu Sheldon "The Closer" Moore (13-2-1, 9 Kos) í átta umferð frábær welterweight lota aðalnúmerið ShoBox: The New Generation tripleheader on Föstudagur, Apríl 10 frá Aviator Íþróttir og Events Center í Brooklyn, N.Y., lifa á Showtime (10 p.m. OG/PT, seinkað á vesturströnd).

 

Galarza, talin af mörgum sem "The Brooklyn Rocky," áfram að gera upp fyrir glataður tími. Átakanlegum second-umferð knockout sigur hans yfir studdi John Thompson handar ShoBox: The New GenerationFrumraun, was one of the most memorable knockouts of the year. Galarza has been on a tear since.

 

"Galarza var fortuitous finna með ShoBox,'' Viðurkenndi box sagnfræðingur og ShoBox sérfræðingur sérfræðingur Steve Farhood. "Þar sem hann uppnámi Thompson, hann er vann fjórum sinnum, og horfði betur í hvert skipti. The láréttur flötur af andstöðu sinni ekki leyfa honum að vera kölluð keppinautur enn, en hann er gert meiriháttar skref. Ég myndi held að aldri 29 hann myndi reyna að gera þetta að bylting ári fyrir hann. "

 

The Galarza-Moore lota er eitt af þremur áætlunarflug átta rounders á a útsending sem hefur sérstakt Brooklyn bragð að henni. Undefeated power-gata middleweight Ievgen "The Ukrainian Lion" Khytrov (9-0, 9 Kos) og stablemate, blá-flís frábær middleweight horfur Sergiy "The Technician" Derevyanchenko (4-0, 3 Kos / World Series of Boxing: 23-1, 7 Kos) einnig búa í Brooklyn.

Fyrir GALARZA, sem er töluvert á heimslistanum, nýleg bylgja gæti ekki komið á betri tíma. A líkamlega sterkur, árásargjarn Boxer-puncher, Galarza fékk seint af stað í hnefaleikum og hafði aðeins 11 áhugamaður berst.

 

"Tíminn fyrir mig er örugglega núna,'' Sagði hann. "Fyrsta mín ShoBox berjast stilla vettvangur fyrir mig. Ég vissi ekki bara vinnur í baráttunni sem algerlega enginn hélt að ég gæti, Ég vann hana í Grand stíl. Ég gerði yfirlýsingu. Ég hef haldið áfram að vaxa og finnst ég hef fengið betri síðan þá berjast. En ég er hér til að sýna fólki hvað ég er allur óður í, halda áfram að þjálfa mjög erfitt og bara taka það smám, einn berjast í einu.

 

"Það er spennandi að berjast í sjónvarpi helstu atburði í bakgarðinn minn. Ég hef aldrei verið meiri áhuga fyrir leik. Ég vil þakka Showtime fyrir að gefa mér annað tækifæri til að berjast á ShoBox.''

 

Style-vitur, Galarza telur þetta er frábær matchup fyrir hann. "Moore lítur líkamlega stór og sterkur, sterkur og svöng og kemur að berjast,'' Sagði hann. "Hann er árásargjarn og það er the bestur hluti óður í það - það ætti að gera fyrir miklu baráttu. Ég get verið árásargjarn, of. Ég veit að hann er að koma til að berjast og allir vita að ég er ekki að færa aftur á bak, svo ég búast flugelda.

 

"Ég kem til að berjast hvert skipti, sérstaklega á Showtime, á ShoBox þar sem þeir gefa þér andstæðingar góðum gæðum sem búist er við að setja á sýningunni og búist er við að gera góða baráttu.

 

"Það er í Brooklyn, heimabæ minn, og ég vil skemmta fólki. Þetta er sýning mín, heimkoma mín, og ég mun verja heimili torf minn. Ég hef verk að vinna á apríl 10, en eftir það, stór nöfn sviðsins eru að fara að vera neydd til að takast á við mig. Ég er 29 og leggja það allt á línu. ''

 

Í nýjustu hans ShoBox útlit, Galarza vann einróma átta umferð ákvörðun yfir áður ósigraður Sebastien Bouchard (8-0 fara í) maí 16, 2014, með skori 78-73 og 77-74 tvisvar þrátt fyrir að hafa a lið dregin fyrir lágt blása í síðustu umferð.

 

GALARZA er andstæðingurinn, 27-ára gamall Moore, er gerð hans ShoBox Frumraun og fjórða byrjun í Bandaríkjunum þar sem hann er 1-1-1. Hann birtist síðast í bandarískt. í júní 2012.

"Þetta er gríðarlegur tækifæri fyrir mig og feril minn, hendur niður þetta er stærsta berjast í lífi mínu,"Moore sagði. "Það er a verða-vinna berjast fyrir mig. Ég hef séð nokkrar af slagsmálum GALARZA og ég er alveg viss um að ég hef það sem þarf til að styggja hann í bakgarðinum sínum. Þetta er draumur að rætast fyrir mig, berjast á landsvísu sjónvarp, og ég ætla að sýna box heiminum sem ég tilheyri í Elite stigi þessa deild.

"Stíll minn er örugglega árásargjarn. Ég vil ganga niður í sneiðar minn. Galarza hefur góða hreyfingu og góða ná. En í þessari baráttu verður fyrsta baráttunni þar sem ég þarf ekki að vinna á hlið við undirbúning. Ég er 100 prósent hollur til the íþrótt og setja að fara á apríl 10. "

 

The 5-fótur-10 Moore hefur unnið sína síðustu tvær slagsmál, Síðast á fyrstu umferð knockout yfir Janos Varga síðasta Desember. 20 í Belgíu. Rétt eins GALARZA, hann fékk seint af stað í hnefaleikum og hafði takmörkuð áhugamaður feril (27 endum). Hann gerði kickboxing þegar hann var 15, en ekki hafa fyrstu áhugamaður hans berjast til aldurs 19.

 

Khytrov (áberandi að hann-kostnaður) var stórkostlegum áhugamaður með sögn 500 áhugamanna bardaga. Hann var 2011 áhugamaður heimsmeistari og fulltrúi fyrir Úkraína í 2012 Olympic Games.

 

Þetta mun vera annað framkoma hans á ShoBox. Í frumraun sína á Jan. 9, hann eyddi áður undefeated Maurice Louishomme, vinna með þriðja umferð TKO. Hann upplýst Louishomme með hægri hendi og uppercuts að líkamanum, yfirþyrmandi hann á mörg önnur tækifæri í einhliða mál sem var stöðvaður á 0:24 í þriðju umferð.

 

Aggressive, móðgandi hugarfar Khytrov hefur barist samtals 27 umferðir í níu hefst, að meðaltali þrjár umferðir a berjast - og sem felur í sér feril-best áttunda umferð tæknilegt rothögg hans á alltaf-sterkur Puerto Rico Jorge Melendez mars 6.

 

"Ievgen [áberandi yev-Gin, með harðan G] er eins og aðdáandi-vingjarnlegur bardagamaður eins og þú munt finna, aldrei tekur aftur á bak skref, lítur út fyrir að meiða andstæðing sinn með hverjum bolla,'' Farhood sagði. “After nine fights, hann sýnir öll merki um að hann mun vera titill keppinautur í ár-til-18 mánaða. Síðast hans, a stöðvun yfir Jorge Melendez, var djarfur að færa til að taka á hættulegum og reynslu andstæðing og hann tók hann út, braut hann niður. Hvað segir það mér?"

 

Einn af the toppur horfur í hnefaleikum, 5-fótur-11, 26-ára Khytrov hefur verið flutt á miklu hraðar en flest önnur horfur á þessu stigi starfsferils. Hann gerði faglega frumraun sína á aldri 25 í desember 2013 og börðust sex sinnum í 2014. Þetta er þriðja berjast hans 2015. Allar slagsmálum hans hafa verið í Bandaríkjunum.

"Ég býst við a sterkur berjast út af Coley, sem, eins og mér, hefur aldrei verið sigraður eins og a faglegur. Við vissum að 2015 ætlaði að vera stór ári fyrir mig og feril minn, og ég lofa enn eitt fallegt árangur á Apríl 10 sem við höldum áfram að fara upp í röðum skiptingu minn. "

Khytrov saman stíl hans til einn af allur-tími greats box er. “Ég hef fengið Roberto Duran stíl. Ég er allt út brawler,'' Sagði hann. "Ég ráðast á líkamann. Ég elska TV sviðsljósinu. ''

 

Coley er vinstri-hander og tveggja ára atvinnumaður sem tekur gríðarlega skref upp í þessari baráttu, hans ShoBox og átta umferð Frumraun.

"Ég hef séð Khytrov berjast. Frá því sem það lítur út eins og, hann er ágætis bardagamaður. Ég virkilega held ekki að það er eitthvað sérstakt við hann. Hann er nokkuð augljóst, að Austur-Evrópu náungi sem bara kemur inn og notar litla horn. Hann er harður puncher með góðum krafti, en ég veit ekki krakkar sem hann hefur verið að berjast.

 

"Sumir Meira, þú getur ekki meiða það sem þú getur ekki högg. "
