“I have to outclass him and make him not even want to fight anymore,” said Heraldez. “I’m going to make him retire. My goal on fight night is to win and show out for my Mexican fans in New York.”
Heraldez, who trains out of the Mayweather Boxing Club in Las Vegas with coach Otis Pimpleton, made his 2019 debut in February by knocking out Eddie Ramirez in round seven of their super lightweight fight. Mendez is another step up in competition for the 28-year-old.
“On paper he’s the toughest fighter I’ve faced,” said Heraldez. “I only watched some of his fight against Ramirez, but being a former world champion, it means he’s doing something right. I don’t think he does anything better than me and I’m looking to show it on fight night.”
This will be Heraldez’s first fight on SHOWTIME, giving him a chance to shine on a big stage leading up to the Deontay Wilder heavyweight world title defense against Dominic Breazeale in the main event. For Heraldez, he sees this is an opportunity to display what he’s already being doing in the ring for years.
“I’m excited to be able to show off what I’ve always been able to do,” said Heraldez. “It’s going to be no surprise to the people around me who know what I’m capable of. It’s another stage with more people watching, but the ring and everything else stays the same.
“A fight like this adds more motivation for my future because I want to keep changing the lives of my family. Little by little, win by win and fight by fight, I can accomplish that. That’s where my motivation comes from.”
A Las Vegas-native who is promoted by Mayweather Promotions, Heraldez believes he’s ready for a world title shot and knows that Argenis Mendez is currently in his path to getting that coveted opportunity.
“If the title fight is there after I beat Mendez, I’m taking it,” said Heraldez. “That’s one of the ultimate goals and something I’ve been preparing for my whole career. I’m going to keep training hard like I always do to be at my best against Mendez. I’m going to have a great performance May 18 and they won’t be able to deny my place in this division.”

LAS VEGAS – Április 27, 2019 – Robert Húsvét Jr. and Rances Barthelemy fought to a split-draw in their matchup for the vacant WBA Lightweight World Title Saturday on SHOWTIME from The Chelsea inside The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas.
The challenging fight to score was ruled 115-113 Barthelemy, 115-113 Easter and 114-114. The WBA 135-pound title remains vacant following the split decision.
With both former world champions needing a win in a crossroads affair, neither fighter was able to pull the trigger in a matchup of talented counterpunchers. The tall, rangy lightweights competed on the outside for much of the 12-round bout, and while both relied on their reach to keep their opponent at bay, they failed to land many effective shots from the outside.
The switch-hitting Cuban Barthelemy (27-1-1, 14 KO), who fought defensively for most of the fight, transitioned to mostly southpaw in the third. The former two-division world champion’s most effective punches appeared to be body shots from the southpaw stance, while Easter (21-1-1, 14 KO) was at his best when he countered with his right.
As the 12-round affair progressed, the corners of both fighters – Robert Easter Sr. and former Cuban champion Joel Casamayor – pleaded with their pugilists to increase their output to little avail. Neither fighter landed 10 punches in any round, and while Easter was slightly more active they combined to throw just 743 ütések. They combined to land just 106 Összesen ütések.
“I feel I did enough to win this fight but the judges saw it differently,” Said Easter, who was fighting for the first time since losing to pound-for-pound great Mikey Garcia in a unification last summer. “They saw it a different way. Rances is a crafty fighter, an elusive fighter. I tried to take the fight to him but he wouldn’t take it. It was hard to land my shots.”
Barthelemy, who was returning to lightweight after losing a rematch to Kiryl Relikh in his bid to become Cuba’s first three-division world champion, was frustrated with the decision.
“Robert was absent in the ring tonight,” Barthelemy said. “I wanted him to land his right and he didn’t. I wanted him to come forward and he didn’t. We were prepared for a different Robert Easter – the one that attacks – but he didn’t show up so I couldn’t deliver my strategy.
“I landed the cleaner and more accurate shots. I feel I threw more punches. I was the busier fighter. I won the fight. I think this was a missed opportunity for me. I really feel I won this fight.”
Former 140-pound world champion Viktor Postol outclassed Mohamed Mimoune in a WBC Super Lightweight Eliminator, winning via unanimous decision 98-92, 97-93, 99-91 in the SHOWTIME BOXING: SPECIAL EDITION co-feature.
Postol fought off a stiff jab and utilized his reach advantage to keep the fight at range. The Ukrainian, who was working with Hall of Fame trainer Freddie Roach, was the more active fighter from bell to bell, dobás 587 punches compared to just 306 for the French Mimoune. While Mimoune was elusive and able to slip many of Postol’s power shots, he never left himself in a position to effectively counter his taller and more aggressive opponent. The southpaw Mimoune (21-3, 2 KO) averaged just 30 punches per round and was off balance for much of the fight, throwing wide looping shots that rarely landed.
A meccs után, Postol attributed his victory with being able to remain disciplined and stick to the game plan of Roach.
“I always try to be disciplined,” Postol said. “I did well tonight. My opponent’s style was a little awkward, but I did okay. If I could fight a guy like (Terence) Crawford, I can handle Mimoune. And I did.”
A meccs után, Postol, who’s only losses came against top fighters Terence Crawford and Josh Taylor, promised to chase the elite of the 140-pound class.
“I want the next big fight,” Postol said. “Doesn’t matter who – WBC Champion Jose Ramirez would be a great choice. I was away for two years so I was a little bit worried before, but now I feel like I’m back. Vagyok 100 percent back and ready for the next test.”
Hall of Famer Steve Farhood, who served as unofficial ringside scorer for the SHOWTIME telecast, gave Postol all 10 of the rounds in the WBC Eliminator.
A nyitó mérkőzés a tv-közvetítés, fast-rising heavyweight Efe Ajagba added another knockout to his resume with a second-round TKO of previously once-beaten Michael Wallisch.
Ajagba (10-0, 9 KO) was aggressive from the outset, dobott közel 100 punches in the opening round. Utilizing a steady diet of 1-2 combos, Ajagba landed at will in the second against Wallisch, who fought behind a high guard but couldn’t prevent the Nigerian’s power shots from landing. After eating a series of combos in the second, Wallisch (19-2, 12 KO) took a knee and was given time to recover after Ajagba appeared to throw and land a punch with his opponent on his knee. Wallisch got back up but was defenseless against Ajagba’s onslaught, forcing referee Tony Weeks to step in to stop the contest at 1:40.
“I took my time in there, I used my jab a lot and it worked,” said Agjaba, akik partra 43 százaléka hatalmát felvételek. “When I shot my right hand and he took it, I decided to keep unloading. I kept throwing combinations and I knew I was hurting him so I kept doing it.
“I’m happy to be training with Ronnie (Shields). He is one of the best trainers in the world. He helped me with my jab and he’s helping me develop as a fighter.”
Said trainer Ronnie Shields: “I think we still have a lot to learn. You saw he’s a busy guy and for a big guy to throw 93 punches in the first round, it’s a lot. He may be about a year away to becoming a contender. He will get there.”
Tonight’s live event was promoted by Mayweather Promotions and TGB Promotions in association with About Billions Promotions.
An encore presentation of the tripleheader will air Monday at 10 p.m. ET/PT on SHOWTIME EXTREME and will be available via the network’s On Demand platforms.

Here is what the workout participants had to say Tuesday from Mayweather Boxing Club in Las Vegas:
Rances Barthélemy
“The key thing for me to get back to the top, is to get back to my roots. It’s about using what made me a champion and getting back to that. We’ve gone back to our Cuban roots in training with Joel Casamayor and left any distractions behind. You’ll see all of that in my performance on Saturday night.
“Easter and myself are both on the road to redemption coming off of our first defeats. I expect the same Robert Easter Jr. that I’ve seen on tape. He comes forward and tries to fight it out. There’s nothing overly impressive about him to me.
“I’m ready for whatever Robert Easter Jr. wants. If he wants a war, we’ll have a war. Everyone knows I’ve never backed down, but I’m going to win this fight with the intelligence that made me a world champion.
“Casamayor comes from the same streets as me, he knows my style, how I think and how I need to work. We identify with one another a lot so we don’t have to confront each other. With a simple look, I know what he’s trying to tell me. Between him and my brother, Yan, I feel blessed to have two Olympians in my corner.
“To the Cuban people, this will be my best fight and and a strong performance for the Cuban boxing community. I’m going to focus and work hard like us Cubans always have since we were born. I had to grow up through hardships and I’ve worked to show that anything is possible coming from Cuba.”
MOHAMED MIMOUNE
“Postol is one of the best that I will face but I am not afraid. I am confident I will win. I’ve studied him together with my coach and we have a strategy in place that you will see on Saturday.
“Nagyon izgatott vagyok a lehetőségért. It is every boxer’s dream to fight in Las Vegas and I am happy and ready to show the Americans what I have.
“I have no issues with Postol’s height advantage. I am prepared for it. It is not my first time facing off against a boxer that is taller than me. I have a very good reach as well, but it is my speed that will beat him.
“I have worked very hard after my losses and put all my effort into bettering my performance. I’m stronger and more mature now than ever. I know I have to win and I will win.
I’m looking forward to the opportunity to fight for the world title after I win on Saturday night. I’m dedicating this fight too all French people and I hope they make sure to not miss it on Saturday.”
JOEL CASAMAYOR, Barthelemy’s Trainer
“We’ve been training since mid-February for this fight. It’s been a long three months in the gym together. I see a different Rances. He’s fighting smarter and he’s gotten back to his Cuban roots. That’s what made him a two-time world champion.
“It’s hard to predict, but if it were up to me of course I’d say Rances will win by knockout. From what I’ve seen in training camp, Rances is going to put on a great performance Saturday night. He knows what he has to do.
“We have a great connection throughout camp. I just have to look into his eyes and I feel like I know what he’s going to bring. All the hard work has been done and he’s 100 percent ready for Saturday night.”
MEHDI OUMIHA, Mimoune’s Trainer
“Mohamed Mimoune is an improved fighter who’s shown a lot of new and different skills in training. We have the right tactics to earn this victory on Saturday.
“We are prepared for what Postol can bring, but we’re focused on Mohamed Mimoune being at his best. Everything I have seen in training camp makes me very confident that we’re going to win Saturday and go on to fight for the title.”
Leonard Ellerbe, Vezérigazgatója Mayweather Promotions
“Rances has a tremendous amount of experience. If you look at his earlier fights before he became champion and during his championship runs, he’s fought on the big stage time and time again.
“I think Rances’ experience will help in a fight like this, but Robert Easter Jr. has also been in big fights. They both bring a lot of background in exciting, high-quality fights. You have two fighters with something to prove looking to do just that live on SHOWTIME Saturday night.”

“This fight is do or die for me to become champion again,” said Mendez. “Anthony Peterson ran from me in our fight in March, so if Heraldez does that on May 18, I will be better prepared.

Jegyek a rendezvény, which is promoted by Mayweather Promotions and TGB Promotions in association with About Billions Promotions, lehet megvásárolniwww.cosmopolitanlasvegas.comor through Ticketmaster.
After losing for the first time in his pro career in a 140-pound title fight against Kiryl Relikh last March, Barthelemy rebounded to stop Robert Frankel in December as he prepared to return to the lightweight division to face Easter. Since the loss to Relikh, Barthelemy made fellow Cuban and former world champion Joel Casamayor head trainer as he looks to return to the championship ranks.
Here is what Barthelemy had to say from training camp at Prince Ranch Bones Adams Boxing Gym in Las Vegas:
How has training camp gone so far?
“Everything has been going well under the guidance of Joel Casamayor and the assistance of my brother Yan Barthelemy and Oscar Vasquez. We have been training twice a day and sparring three to four times a week against solid guys like former world champion and ex-opponent Mickey Bey. Like they say, ‘iron sharpens iron’ and the quality of sparring has been tremendous help in getting me ready for April 27. I feel better prepared both mentally and physically than I did in my most recent fights.”
What do you make of Robert Easter Jr. and what do you know about him?
“I have seen various Robert Easter Jr fights and have been studying him very closely. He’s a great boxer who likes to use his height and reach to his advantage. He’s an ex-world champion who has fought quality opponents. He deserves all of my respect but we are very confident that we will be victorious against him.”
Do you feel you have been able to rebound from your first career defeat?
“Most definitely, I have been able to move on and use that defeat as a lesson in my career. They say sometimes we learn more in defeat than we do in victories and that was the case in that fight.
“Sometimes we do not see clearly when we are winning. Bad habits or little details that need correction are overlooked when you are winning. Sometimes we do not even see them. I feel rejuvenated and we have made many important changes that were necessary for my career. You will see on April 27 that there is still much more left from Team Barthelemy.”
What would it mean to become a champion again on April 27?
“We have no doubt that we’ll become champion again for a third time on April 27. This will bring my name back at the top of the sport with many potential big fights to be made. It will mean so much more to me because Cuban boxing has currently gone through a rough patch and this victory will allow Cuba to have a champion once again.”
Any final message to your fans before your fight?
“Please make sure to tune in on April 27. This fight will be very competitive, with two evenly-skilled former world champions looking to reclaim their status at the top of the sport. Fights like this are what make boxing great. Cuba will have a champion once again on April 27!”

ATLANTIC CITY(Április 13, 2019) – Claressa Shields a világ vitathatatlan középsúlyú bajnoka. A 24 éves Flint, nekem. natív pályafutása legjobb teljesítményét nyújtotta, és egyhangú döntést hozott a német Christina Hammer szombaton a SHOWTIME-n, amely vitathatatlanul a történelem legjelentősebb női bokszmérkőzése volt.. A bírók gólt szereztek a harcban 98-92 és 98-91 kétszer.
A kétszeres olimpiai aranyérmes Shields (9-0, 2 KO), aki az IBF-et tartva szállt be a küzdelembe, WBA és WBC 160 fontos címek, megmutatta képességeinek teljes arzenálját a domináns teljesítményben, és most csatlakozik Terrence Crawfordhoz, Jermain Taylor, Bernard Hopkins, Oleksandr Usyk és a női félnehézsúlyú Cecilia Braekhus az egyedüli harcosok, akik minden súlycsoportban egyesítették mind a négy nagy világbajnoki címet..
Christina Hammer (24-0, 11 KO), aki a WBO-öv tulajdonosával indult be a küzdelembe, szúrását nagyrészt hatástalanították, védekezését pedig az elejétől a végéig kihasználták. Shields figyelemre méltó 44% ütéseiből, és leszállt 112 teljes ütések az éppen 49 Hammer számára. Akármennyire is lenyűgöző volt a sértése, Shields védekezése és fejmozgása kifogástalan volt, mivel Hammer éppen rá tudott csatlakozni 13% az összes ütéséből, 11% szúrásaiból és 18% erőlövéseiről.
Beszélgetés a SHOWTIME Hírességek Csarnokának elemzőjével, Steve Farhooddal a női boksz történelmi éjszakáját követően, a szókimondó és érzelmes Shield semmit sem tartott vissza.
„Én vagyok minden idők legnagyobb nője,– mondta Shields, aki a nyolcadik kör záró pillanataiban kis híján leállást szerzett egy vízlépcső alatt. „Megcsináltam. Egy kört sem nyert. Majdnem kiütöttem. Esküszöm, most úgy érzem, mintha álmodom. Köszönet Christina Hammernek és csapatának. Azt mondták, kemény szúrás volt, és nem hazudtak. Szúrása lekerült a láncról.
„Az első körben még csak számolgattam, és utána elkezdtem szétválogatni,– folytatta a nő. „Tudtam, hogy bánthatom őt. Azt hittem, a nyolcadik körben végeztem vele. Azt hittem, le kellett volna állítani a harcot. Ő tartott engem. csak mondtam magamnak, maradj hideg, maradj hideg. Megpróbáltam a tökéletes ütést elérni, hogy kihozzam onnan.
Profi karrierje legnagyobb győzelmét érte el, a frissen koronázott vitathatatlan világbajnok már egy másik ellenfélre szegezi a tekintetét.
„Női boksz, égünk. Alig várom, hogy lássam a következő szupermeccset. Add ide Cecilia Brækhusnak 154 font. Ezt akarom legközelebb. Vagy ő, vagy Savannah Marshall.
„Nem küzdöttem túl jól vagy gyorsan,– mondta egy visszafogott Hammer. „Ez a boksz, bármi megtörténhet. Ezt a harcot akartam. Ő nyert, tiszteletet neki. Ő egy kemény, erős nő, és csak ennyit tudok mondani.
„Gyors, előjön. Gyors kezei vannak. Nem tudtam olyan jól leütni, mint vártam. Visszajövök, és erősebben térek vissza.”
“Azt hiszem, a ma esti küzdelem epikus csataként fog bekerülni a történelemkönyvekbe olyanokkal, mint Ali-Frazier, A Pokol-Trinidadból,” – mondta Dmitrij Salita, A Salita Promotions elnöke.“Ezzel a domináns és lebilincselő teljesítménnyel, hogy vitathatatlan középsúlyú bajnok legyen, és rekordot döntő teljesítményeinek listájával párosul., Claressa Shields jó úton halad afelé, hogy olyan tisztelt legyen, mint Muhammad Ali, Sugar Ray Robinson, Serena Williams, Michael Jordan, Pele és mások a játékuk csúcsán.”
A co-featured mérkőzés, Jermaine Franklin (18-0, 13 KO), széles körben a legnagyobb amerikai nehézsúlyú esélyesként tartják számon, megőrizte veretlenségét egy 10 fordulós egyhangú döntéssel a korábbi No. 1-rangsorolt U.S. amatőr Rydell Booker (25-2, 12 KO). A bírók gólt szereztek a harcban 99-91 és 98-91 kétszer.
A 25 éves Franklin végig diktálta a tempót, és sokkal aktívabb és agresszívabb volt, mint 38 éves társa.. Bookernek megvoltak a pillanatai, különösen a korai körökben, amikor több flush power lövést ért el, de a fiatal Franklin a küzdelem második felében elhúzott, mert Booker elfáradt, Franklin pedig a testet vette célba.. Franklin átlagolt 54 ütések körönként Bookernek 35 és vezetett 146-94 általános ütésekben landolt.
„Azt hiszem, tisztességes teljesítményt nyújtottam,– mondta a Saginaw, nekem. bennszülött. „Van néhány dolog, amin dolgozhatnék. Kicsit túlzsúfoltam magam, és egy kicsit túlzottan izgultam. Sokkal több tapasztalattal rendelkezett, mint én, és ezt kihasználta. Látta, mit csinálok.
„Megtanultam türelmesebbnek maradni, mert néhányszor megbántottam, de egyszer túlzottan izgultam, az egész játéktervem kiment az ablakon. Elkezdtem rendetlenkedni és őrült hibákat elkövetni, amiket nem kellett volna. Most visszatértem a rajzasztalhoz, hogy dolgozzak a hibáimon, és legközelebb nagyobb és rosszabbul jöjjek ki.”
„Úgy éreztem, kizökkentett, de sokkal közelebb volt, mint ahogy a bírók pontozták,– mondta Booker. „Sokkal jobban hiányoztam neki, mint amilyennek látszott. Sok lövést elcsúsztam, és tisztán eltaláltam.
„Tudtam, hogy ő hozza a nyomást, de sok munkára van szüksége. Túlságosan középen marad a fejével. jól van. Ami mellette áll, az a fiatalság. A teljesítményemet hetesre értékelném. Volt egy edzőtábori sérülésem, amivel küzdöttem. Aktív maradok, és erősebben térek vissza, mint valaha.”
A televízió nyitójában, veretlen az első öt közé sorolt nehézsúlyú esélyes Otto Wallin (20-0, 13 KO, 1 ND) és a baltimore-i Nick Kisner (21-4-1, 6 KO, 1 ND) A 10 menetes összecsapás véget ért, amikor a két nehézsúlyú összecsapott fejjel a nyitókörben. Wallin ütést szenvedett a feje oldalán, míg Kisner a jobb szemén szenvedett vágást, akadályozza a látást. A körorvos tanácsára az első és a második kör között, Earl Brown játékvezető megállította a küzdelmet, határozatlanságot eredményez.
Abban az időben a leállás, Wallin vezetett 14-3 általános ütésekben landolt, 7-1 jabokban és 7-2 Power ütésekben.
"Hozzám, a vágása nem nézett ki olyan rosszul,– mondta csalódottan Wallin, aki az U.S. bemutatkozás. „Szégyen, mert nagyon keményen edzettem erre a küzdelemre, és szerettem volna egy show-t rendezni a rajongóknak Amerikában.. Egyszerűen nem volt időm indulni.
„Szeretnék hamarosan visszatérni oda, és megmutatni, mire vagyok képes. Ezt tanulási élménynek fogom felvenni.”
„Elkaptam egy fejet, és odajött hozzám a játékvezető,– mondta Kisner. „Látta, hogy a szemembe csúsztam, és azt mondta: „Látod?' mondtam, – amint kiszabadul a vér a szememből, Persze.'
„Szörnyen érzem magam ilyen kemény edzés után. Az első körben jól éreztem magam. A bírák valószínűleg neki adták az első kört, de mindig leveszem az első kört. Úgy éreztem, végre eljutok hozzá. Láttad, ahogy leszálltam a jobb oldalamon.

WBO Middleweight Champion Hammer Takes on Fellow Middleweight Champion Claressa Shields for Undisputed Middleweight Championship Saturday, Április 13 Élő a Showtime® from Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City
ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. (Április 5, 2019) – Before she arrived in New York Thursday for the final part of her training camp, WBO középsúlyú világbajnok Christina Hammershared her thoughts on her showdown for the Undisputed Middleweight Championship against WBA, WBC and IBF Middleweight ChampionClaressa Shields Szombat április 13 live on SHOWTIME from Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, N.J.
Germany’s Hammer has held a middleweight world title since 2010, defending it numerous times including in her U.S. debut last June on SHOWTIME in which she defeated Tori Nelson. Now she looks to stamp her name in the history books in this matchup against Shields that many are calling the most significant fight in women’s boxing history.
Jegyek az élő esemény, amely elősegíti Salita Promotions, az ára $150, $100, $55 és $35 and can be purchased through Ticketmaster and atboardwalkhall.com.
Here are highlights of what Hammer had to say as we head into fight week for this historic event:
How excited are you about fighting in the U.S.?
Christina Hammer: “I’m really excited about it because this is a very big fight. I can’t wait to get there, step into the ring and put on a great performance.”
Mit jelent ez a harc jelent számodra?
CH: “This is going to be the biggest women’s fight in history. Mindketten bajnokok, she has Olympic gold medals and other accolades, so with all of that combined, it’s going to be a game changer for our sport.”
What do you need to do to win?
CH: “I’m a long time champion and I know what to do in the ring. I know I have the skills to beat her. I have great foot work and my goal is to beat her badly.”
What do you think of Claressa inside and outside of the ring?
CH: “Claressa has obviously accomplished a lot going back to the Olympics. This is a big step for her and I think it’s going to be a challenge for her. As a person, she’s just my opponent, that’s all.”
Can you describe your style of fighting and what fans can expect on April 13?
CH: “I’m tall for my division so I use my reach. I have great footwork and technique and power and I want to show off all those skills. I’m going to show that Christina Hammer is a great champion. I like to play with my opponent, and when the moment is right, I beat her down.”
Can you talk about your experiences as a fashion model and why that’s important to you?
CH: “I like modeling because it’s a different part of me. You can be more feminine and athletic. I did my first shoot three years ago and I had never done anything like that. I’ve worked on my skills there too.
“To be a model is an easy job, it just gives me confidence. Being a fighter is hard. You have to give everything, because in the ring you can’t run away. You have to fight and defeat someone.”
Would you ever want to compete in another sport?
CH: “I don’t know. Boxing is the best sport to me. It’s my passion. I give everything to the sport and my dream now is to be successful in America.”
Is there anyone in boxing history you’d have loved to fight?
CH: “Laila Ali was a great champion and If I fought her that would be a great fight.”
Do you see women’s boxing as a sport on the rise?
CH: “Igen, it’s really grown in recent years. There are more fights on big platforms for us and I think this is just the start.”
Would you recommend for other women to go into boxing?
CH: “Boxing is a great sport. You need technique, intelligence and it makes you feel more confident. If something happens, you can take care of yourself. It’s the best workout and I suggest it to everyone.”
