Here is what the fighters had to say Friday from the JW Marriott Miami Turnberry:

JACK BADOU

“I’m just thankful that I’m still fighting on Sunday night. Now we have a new opponent and it’s going to be the same outcome. I’m in great shape and I can’t wait.

“Colina is just another guy. I respect him for coming in and stepping up as a late replacement. But I was going to win this fight on Sunday whether it was Pascal or anyone.

“I’m very frustrated about Jean Pascal. But I’m a pro and I can adjust no matter who is in front of me. I’m disappointed because I won the first fight against Pascal and I waited 18 months to get my revenge.

“I have a little anger that might get taken out on Colina, but it’s nothing personal, just business that I’m here to take care of on Sunday night.

“I don’t really care about the title too much, I really just cared about getting that revenge against Pascal. I waited so long for this and I could have taken different fights while I waited.

“He’s an undefeated guy so he’s going to come in here with a lot of confidence looking to show off his power. We’ll be ready though regardless how he comes into the fight. I had great sparring like always, so I’m prepared for what he’s going to bring.”

DERVIN COLINA

“I’d like to thank Team Badou Jack for the opportunity. Is é seo a dhéanfaidh mé. I was born for this. Come Sunday you guys will see what I do.

“I was scheduled to fight June 11 on a different card. The fight came a little bit earlier on June 6. But I’m ready to fight and there are no excuses for this fight. I’m coming to win at all costs. And you’ll see what I do on Sunday.

“I respect Badou and what he’s done in this sport, but I know that I have everything I need to shock the world come Sunday night.

“I have nothing to lose and that makes me dangerous. I’m going to leave everything in the ring and announce to the whole world that I’m a fighter you’re going to be hearing from.”

JARRETT HURD

“Everyone knows I have unfinished business at 154-pounds. I’m not looking past Arias though. This fight is just a stop at middleweight because I’m going back down to take care of that business.

“We’ve had an amazing training camp with my new trainer Kay Koroma in Colorado Springs. I have a chip on my shoulder. I think a lot of people forgot who I was. I had the best resume in the weight class. Come Sunday, I’m going to remind everyone who I am.

“It’s always strictly business and it’ll be the same on Sunday. Arias is obsessed with my weight and thinks I’m struggling. But he needs to focus on what he needs to do on Sunday night.

“I don’t know where I’m rated right now, but I’m the best fighter at 154 punt. Showing that to the world is the goal on Sunday.

“We just took it back to the basics in training camp with my coach Kay Koroma. You can always learn more in the sport.

“I’ve been boxing for 15 years now and coach Koroma just helped me evolve the things I already knew. He’s got me not just coming forward and using my strength, but moving around and boxing a little bit.”

LUIS ARIAS

“I think the narrative is they needed an opponent for Jarrett Hurd, and I wasn’t looking so great lately. But people tend to forget I was 18-0 before I got my first blemish. When I was with Floyd Mayweather, Bhí mé 9-0 and that’s when I was most comfortable. That’s the mentality I’m taking into this fight.

“I’ve been around Floyd since December. I’ve been in Vegas training in the altitude, just like Hurd. I’m in tip-top shape for this fight and he still has to figure out how he’s going to fight.

“Now the boxing world is going to be watching this fight. I’m going to be on my Ps and Qs and he won’t have to look for me. He will have to pick and choose once he gets hit on Sunday what style he wants to fight.

“This is a must-win for me. This is a great name for my resume. I haven’t ducked anyone. I’ve taken every name that’s been brought to me. When his name came up I said absolutely. I’m ready and I’m an old-school fighter. I’d fight you in this backyard, that backyard, any backyard. On Sunday it will show.

“He’s the one who has got the issue with the weight. The fight doesn’t really make much sense at 160 because he’s not ranked and wants to go back down to 154. But it’s too big of an opportunity and too big of a card to complain about the weight. We’re going to put the gloves on and whatever he weighs, he weighs. This is going to be the best fight on the card.”

CHAD JOHNSON

“I feel really good. I’ve been using boxing to prepare for football throughout the years, but I’ve never done it to this magnitude. To prepare for an actual fight, is something new. I’m facing a guy who does this for a living, so I’m not taking this lightly at all.

“I was always nervous before every kickoff. So I’d be a fool to say I’m not nervous going into something where I’m out of my element.

“One thing I’m extremely good at, is when there’s lights, cameras and a crowd, is going in there and entertaining.

“I’ve been working with Jorge Masvidal a little bit, but the last few weeks have been in Houston with Jermall and Jermell Charlo. That’s where most of my work has been. I’ve been doing everything possible to make sure I look the part Sunday night.

“I’m out of my element, so of course I’m approaching this fight humbly. He’s coming to knock my head off. Football is something I did all my life, that’s why I walked the way I did. I can’t be arrogant and take this fight lightly.”

BRIAN MAXWELL

“I don’t know how my name came up for this fight. But like everyone has said, ‘Who is Brian Maxwell?’ That’s been a trending topic on every social media. Ach buille faoi thuairim a? Sa lá atá inniu, you all know who Brian Maxwell is. And I’m excited about this. It’s a perfect matchup for me. It’s a perfect matchup for Chad. The best of both worlds. Coming from a fan. My hashtag on social media has become ‘Idols Become Rivals.’ And this is the perfect time and the perfect moment for me and him. Like I told him over the phone, I’m a huge fan. But the fanboy has gone out the window. Now we have to entertain and that’s what we’re going to do.

“This is an exhibition, so we are coming to entertain the fans and put on a show. But at the same time, we are two men who are coming in front of each other and have to fight. No matter the outcome, we’re going to put on a great fight.

“I’ve followed this man since Day 1. I know his every move. I’ve modeled myself after him and it’s like fighting myself. I’m going to be humble about this and we are going to put on a show for everyone.

“That has been the question, what round am I going to knock him out. I’m here to entertain and to have fun. This is a great opportunity.”

LEONARD ELLERBE, POF Promotions Mayweather

“We have a stacked undercard on Sunday night. I’ve promoted tons of events and this is one that I’m really looking forward to, because it gives us an array of great fights in addition to a little something different.

“I’m really looking forward to this card. South Florida has been buzzing since we announced this event. We can’t wait for the great crowd and the tons of fans tuning in from all around the world.

“When I think of Chad Johnson, he’s a showman. He does so many different things really well. He’ll be making his foray into the boxing industry in what should be a terrific bout against Brian Maxwell. Chad is looking to possibly steal the show, which is what he’s known for doing.

“Former unified champ Jarrett Hurd is a great champion and I’ve known him for many years. He’s looking to get back and make his mark where he left off. He’s let it be known that after this fight, he’s going to take control of the 154-pound division again. He’ll be up against Mayweather Promotions own Luis Arias and I’ve had the opportunity to witness Arias preparation firsthand. I can tell you right now he’s more than prepared to upset Jarrett.

“In the co-main, I can’t say enough about Badou Jack. He’s a great champion in the ring and a terrific example outside of the ring. He does so much to help people around the world and Floyd and I are really proud of him. We know he’s going to put on a great show Sunday.

“When it comes to this undercard, the fans are in for a great treat. It’s going to be nothing but action from top to bottom.”

CARSON, CALIF.(Bealtaine 29, 2021) -Nonito Donaire is champion arís. Ceithre bliana déag tar éis dó a chéad teideal domhanda a bhuachan, dhaingnigh an “Filipino Flash” a dhintiúir Hall of Fame le bua iontach sa cheathrú babhta KONordine Oubaalichun teideal Meáchan Bantam an Domhain WBC a ghabháil oíche Dé Sathairn i bpríomhimeacht SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING ó Pháirc Spóirt Dignity Health in Carson, Calif. in imeacht Premier Dornálaíocht Seaimpíní.

“Tá an rí ar ais,” D’imthigh Donaire ina dhiaidh. “Is breá liom na sluaite. Mo chairde go léir, teaghlaigh, go raibh míle maith ag lucht leanúna na dornálaíochta ar fad a tháinig amach. Tá sibh go hiontach.”

An Donaire 38 bliain d'aois (41-6, 27 Kos) ar an chraobh domhanda is sine riamh le 118 bpunt. Bhain sé amach é leis an lámh chlé a bhí mar chárta glaonna a ghairm bheatha nuair a thit sé Oubaali (17-1, 12 Kos) trí huaire san iomlán.

“Ní hé a bheith ag an aois seo an cheist, tá sé faoi mo fheidhmíocht,” arsa Donaire. “Faoi mo chumas fás. Creidim nach bhfuil tábhacht leis an aois atá agat, ach cé chomh láidir meabhrach atá tú. Cad a d'fhoghlaim mé ó na [Naoia] Is é an comhrac inoue ná go bhfuil mé ar ais. Is féidir liom fós dul san iomaíocht ag an leibhéal seo. An t-am ar fad ní raibh mé ag troid, Bhí mé ag foghlaim. Táim réidh don chéad cheann eile.”

Tar éis an chéad bhabhta mothaithe, Chuaigh Donaire ag obair sa dua, ag siúl Oubaali síos agus ag dul i ngleic le héifeacht thudding. Scóráil Donaire an chéad chluiche go luath sa tríú háit, ag titim Oubaali lena chuntar trádmharc ar chlé. D’eirigh an Francach ar a chosa míshuaimhneach agus phreab Donaire, tuirlingt níos mó shots móra go dtí hook eile ar chlé floored Oubaali ach soicind scoilte roimh an bhabhta dar críoch. Arís, Bhí Oubaali ag streachailt lena chosa, dazed fós sásta troid ar.

Tháinig an deireadh go tapa sa cheathrú. D'aistrigh Donaire Oubaali timpeall an fháinne go sainiúil, é a phionnáil i gcoinne na rópaí nuair a chuir gearrtha uachtarach ar chlé Oubaali ag mionú go dtí an chanbhás don tríú uair agus an uair dheireanach. Chuir an réiteoir Jack Reiss deireadh leis láithreach. Ba é an t-am oifigiúil an íoc chuige 1:52 den cheathrú babhta.

“Trí scór bliain de bheith ina laoch domhanda. Curadh domhanda naoi n-uaire. Sin iontach,” arsa Donaire. “Tháinig mé isteach anseo agus mhothaigh mé an-mhaith. Inniu bhí a fhios agam go díreach cad a bhí le tarlú. Bhí a fhios agam go díreach cad a bhí mé ag dul a dhéanamh. Sílim go raibh mé díreach tar éis díriú go mór ar an seomra aclaíochta. Bhí mé an-, an-dírithe. Mhothaigh mé an-mhaith ag teacht isteach agus bhí mé buíoch as an deis seo a fháil.

“Ba rud é anocht a bhí orm a chruthú don domhan go bhfuil mé ar ais agus go bhfuil mé níos láidre ná riamh. Fear an-dian a bhí ann. I mo thuairimse, ar deireadh thiar dom, bhí leibhéal ann dá mbeinn níos foighne? Nó ba chóir dom dul chun é? Rud a d’fhoghlaim mé sa troid Inoue ná dul don mharú. Agus sin go díreach a rinne mé. Bhí mé foighneach, ach bhí a fhios agam go raibh sé gortaithe go leor go bhféadfainn é a thógáil amach.”

Sa an comh-gné, Puerto Rico arSubriel Matias (17-1, 17 Kos) seachadadh taispeáint chumhacht-punching eile, briseadh síos roimhe seo-gan builleBatyr Zhukembayev (18-1, 14 Kos) go dtí gur stop cúinne Jukembayev an bout tar éis ocht mbabhta spleodracha.

“Sílim gurb é seo a raibh gach duine ag súil leis. Bhí a fhios ag gach éinne gur cogadh mór a bhí ann,” arsa Matias. “Tháinig deireadh leis seo trí bhualadh amach cé acu an raibh mé chun a bheith bainte amach nó an raibh Jukembayev chun a bheith bainte amach. Tá áthas orm gur mise a leag amach é.”

Bunaíonn Matias é féin mar dhuine de na cinn is fearr i rannán cruachta, ach ní raibh an bua is déanaí seo éasca. Tháinig Jukembayev de Chasacstáin amach go láidir, ag teacht i dtír teaglaim uachtair lúb ar dheis thuas staighre óna sheasamh cos theas a tharraing aird Matias sa chéad.

Bhrúigh Jukembayev an luas sa dara ceann. Thosaigh Matias ag ligean a lámha sa tríú háit, caitheamh i gcomhcheangal leis an ceann agus comhlacht. Bhí an dá chomhraiceoir téite go hiomlán anois, ag socrú an stáitse don cheathrú babhta a d’fhéadfadh a bheith ina iarrthóir ar “Bhabhta na Bliana”.

Thosaigh sé nuair a duán crua chlé tuislithe Jukembayev agus thiomáin sé go dtí an chanbhás. Rinne Matias iarracht an seó a dhúnadh ach lean Jukembayev air, glanadh a cheann agus thosaigh sé ag tuirlingt a shots féin. Le nóiméad fágtha sa rann, Stunned Jukembayev Matias le crois chlé. In ionad clinching, Throid Matias tine le tine, an slua a thabhairt amach as a suíocháin le gníomh ladhar-go-ladhar go dtí an cloigín ag canadh.

Níor stop Matias ag teacht ar aghaidh. Tar éis séú taobh amháin, D'fhill Jukembayev ar a chúinne agus an dá shúil dúnta. Tháinig an cúl is anall sa seachtú háit nuair a bhuail Jukembayev Matias le dhá chúl ar dheis ag druidim le deireadh an bhabhta..

D’fhill Matias ar shuíochán an tiománaí san ochtú babhta, ag brú ar Jukembayev leis an dá dhorn. San iomlán, chuaigh sé amach i dtír Jukembayev 100 punches (234/608 go 134 /409) agus bhí sé níos cruinne (38.5% go 32.8%). Ba leor an carnadh buille a chuir ina luí ar chúinne Jukembayev iarraidh go gcuirfí stop leis an mbout.

“Bhí a fhios aige nach raibh aon rud le cailleadh aige. Tháinig sé isteach agus bhí sé ag déanamh gach rud go láidir,” arsa Matias. “Bhí a fhios aige nach bhféadfadh sé a dhéanamh ach mé a bhualadh chun an bua a fháil. Ba mhaith liom a bheith déanta ar an rud céanna. Sin croí laochra agus tá mo mheas ar fad aige.

“Tar éis an ceathrú babhta sin, Ciallaíonn mé gur trodaire an-iomaíoch é, mar sin d'iompaigh sé ina chogadh tar éis an phointe sin. Téann mo lámha suas chuige freisin. Bhí sé ag troid iontach. Is cinnte go raibh comhraic eile agam a bhí an-mhaith, ach seo é an ceann a thug an tástáil is deacra dom.”

Sa oscailteoir teileachraolta, Gary Antuanne Russell (14-0, 14 Kos) lean sé ar aghaidh ag ardú na céimeanna super lightweight. Bhí an Russell undefeated an chéad stop a chur leis an garbhSeán Santiago (14-2-1, 10 Kos), ceannasaíocht ar Santiago go dtí gur stop an réiteoir Sharon Sands an comórtas tar éis an séú babhta ar mholadh cúinne Santiago.

“Is é an cuspóir an fear a thabhairt amach chomh luath agus is féidir agus teacht amach gan mhá gáinne,” arsa Russell. “Ba mhaith liom a rá go raibh Santiago ina chéile comhraic rang A. Ceapann go leor daoine gur bhuaigh sé Adrien Broner. Ba mhaith liom Adrien Broner anois."

Le deartháir níos sine agus Curadh Domhanda Cleite WBC Gary Russell Jr. ag obair a chúinne, Rialaigh Gary Antuanne an beart ón gcloch tosaigh. An 2016 D'oibrigh an Oilimpeach an jab agus d'fhág sé díreach taobh thiar den chos dheas, ag sciobadh cloigeann Santiago ar ais arís agus arís eile sa chéad cheann.

Russell, 24, ar aghaidh ag teacht i dtír ar an taobh clé sa dara agus sa tríú. Go luath sa cheathrú, lean sé suas díreach ar chlé go dtí an easnacha le hook gearr ar dheis thuas staighre a thit Santiago ar a ghlúin. D’ardaigh Santiago de chuid Pórtó Ríce go hiontach ar a chosa agus tháinig slán as an ionsaí leantach chun é a bhaint amach.

“Is é an tábhacht domsa é a rith bhabhta ar bhabhta, agus bhabhta-ar-bhabhta, Bhí mé ag forghníomhú níos mó agus níos mó. Dubhairt m'athair liom dul go dtí an corp, duán ceart thuas staighre. Bhí sé oscailte dó sin,” arsa Russell.

Níor léirigh Russell aon chomharthaí de mhoilliú in ainneoin gur síneadh é níos faide ná ceithre bhabhta don chéad uair ina ghairm bheatha. Airde na Príomhchathrach, Md. táirge buailte Santiago sa séú háit, tuirlingthe comhcheangail phionósú ar fud an fhráma. Chuimhneacháin ina dhiaidh sin, cuireadh stop leis an bout.

“Is cinnte go bhfuil sé tábhachtach dom a bheith ag seinm mar sin ní hamháin go bhfuil aithne orm mar dheartháir óg Gary Russell,” arsa Russell, a dtír 146 de 444 punches (32.9%). “Is as cúlra sármhaith trodaithe mé. Táimid ag tógáil dynasty.

“Cé chomh luath agus is mian liom dul ar ais sa bhfáinne? Dá bhféadfainn troid ar chárta Deontay Wilder, bheadh sé sin go hiontach.”

Rinne mé oiliúint chomh dian chuige seo agus anois táim réidh le troid. Ba mhaith liom a thaispeáint do chách go bhfuil an dá bantamweights is fearr sa dornálaíocht inniu ag troid Dé Sathairn.

“Tá, bhí gairm bheatha den scoth aige agus tá cumhacht aige ach creidim go bhfuil níos mó cumhachta agam ná é. Tá a fhios agam go bhfuil an chumhacht agam. Is dornálaí maith é ach is mise curadh an domhain agus ar an Satharn taispeánfaidh mé don domhan cé hé is fearr. Tá a fhios agam go bhfuil mé an chuid is fearr. Tá meas agam ar Nonito. Bhí slí bheatha mhaith aige ach is mise an duine is fearr sa rannóg.

“Is é an difríocht a bheidh sa troid ná go mbeidh mé ag iarraidh níos mó a bhuachan. Ba mhaith liom leanúint ar aghaidh ag déanamh staire agus fanacht mar chraobh an domhain sa rannán seo. Tá a fhios agam gurb é mo chuid ama é. Ba mhaith liom é seo níos mó ná mar a dhéanann sé.

“Má tá an bua agam, cén fáth nach mbeadh an chéad troid eile agam ar son an aontú? Ba mhaith liom stair a dhéanamh gach uair agus is é seo mo spreagadh. Táim anseo mar is breá liom dornálaíocht agus ba mhaith liom aghaidh a thabhairt ar na dornálaithe is fearr gach uair. Tá mé ag tabhairt aghaidh ar Nonito Donaire agus tá sé sin iontach do mo ghairm bheatha. Is maith liom troid agus seo mo shaol.”

**NONITO DONAIRE**

“Bheadh sé iontach an teideal a bhuachan ag 38 bliana d’aois agus a bheith ar an chraobh is sine ag 118 punt, ach leanfaimis é. Déanaimis é 40. Déanaimis é 42. Níl aon stad orm. Meabhrach, Táim an-bhuíoch ach ag an am céanna táim an-réidh.

“Bím sláintiúil i gcónaí agus is é an fáth a dtig liom dul san iomaíocht le haon duine ná mar go gcoimeádaim mé féin sláintiúil agus go n-oibrím go crua. Níl aon rud níos lú ná 100 faoin gcéad gach uair a bhím sa seomra aclaíochta sin.

“Tá mé thar a bheith deacair mar sin ní dhéanaim an rud a deir daoine liom a dhéanamh i gcónaí. Is féidir le daoine a rá gurb é a gcuid ama é. Ach tá mo chuid ama agam freisin agus beidh mé i gcónaí mar an duine a ghéilleann a gcuid ama nó a dhéanfaidh an cinneadh sin. Tá sé fós mo chuid ama.

“Is troid iontach a bheidh ann. Is é Oubaali an curadh ar chúis. Tá sé tríd ó thaobh na n-amaitéarach de agus é á dhéanamh anseo. Mar sin nílimid ag tabhairt faoi mheas ar bith de sin. Ach is iomaí uair a throid mé san ionad seo agus déanaim troideanna draíochta i gcónaí ar an gcéad dul síos. Beidh sé draíochtúil liom i gcónaí. Is aonbheannaigh mé.

“Is é an difríocht a bheidh sa troid seo ná mo ocras. Tá sé níos óige ná mise ach tá an t-ocras orm. Tá cuspóir againn beirt agus sin an rud a dhéanfaidh troid iontach.

“Ba mhaith liom troid leis an duine is fearr amuigh ansin. Ba mhaith liom an rematch le Naoya Inoue agus ba mhaith liom a fháil ar na criosanna. Is é an t-aon rud nach bhfuil bainte amach agam sa dornálaíocht ná a bheith ina laoch gan amhras. Tá gach rud eile déanta agam. Trodaire na Bliana. Knockout na Bliana. Craobhchomórtais iolracha. Curadh ceithre rannán. Ainmníonn tú é. Sin é mo phríomhsprioc. Faigh an crios agus cuir iad go léir le chéile.

“Is é meáchan bantam an fíormheáchan atá agam. Throid mé i gcónaí sa rannán níos troime mar gheall ar an spleodar, an dúshlán agus an tairiscint brabúsaí nó na hainmneacha ag an am sin. Anois, Táim anseo san áit a bhfuilim i mo bhall agus seo an áit a bhfuilim an-láidir.

“Ní bheidh an aslonnú ina fhachtóir ar chor ar bith. Chabhraigh an t-am saor liom. Just a bheith as an fáinne chabhraigh mo chorp a ghnóthú. Agus tá an fonn agus an t-ocras ann níos mó ná riamh. Beannacht a bhí ann dom.”

**SUBRIEL MATHIAS**

“Beidh mé an triail is deacra aige gan cheist agus tiocfaidh sé oíche Dé Sathairn, gheobhaidh gach duine amach cén fáth a bhfuil mé ag rá sin.

“Creidim é nuair a deir sé go bhfuil na huirlisí aige chun stop a chur leis Dé Sathairn. Ach ní ceist é a rá, oíche Dé Sathairn caithfidh sé é a chruthú. Má tá sé chun teacht amach as do bhéal, ansin caithfidh tú é a chruthú.

“Is ealaíontóirí knockout muid araon agus leis an méid a bhfuil muid ag féachaint ar, níor cheart go gcríochnódh an troid seo le cinneadh.

“Níl mórán le rá agam faoin gcomhrac sin i gcoinne Petros Ananyan. Iad siúd a chonaic mé caillte, chaill mé. Níl aon rud is féidir liom a rá faoi. Ach tuigeann na daoine a bhfuil aithne acu ar an dornálaíocht go bhfuil mé ag dul chun cinn agus ag feabhsú agus feicfidh sibh go léir é Dé Sathairn.”

**BATYR JUKEMBAYEV**

“Bhí campa traenála iontach agam. Táim réidh don oíche Dé Sathairn. Tá a fhios agam gur trodaire maith é ach geallaim go mbeidh mé réidh.

“Feicfidh muid oíche Shathairn an dtiocfaidh deireadh leis le buaicphointe. Taispeánfaidh mé duit cad as a bhfuil mé déanta agus feicfidh tú go léir.”

**GARY ANTUANNE RUSSELL**

“Tá mé sa ghnó gortaithe. Is sladmhargadh é. Más mian leis teacht isteach ann agus sluga liom, Mothóidh sé mo chumhacht. Feicfidh sé cé chomh cliste is atá mé. Ní hamháin go meabhrach, ach go fisiciúil le mo lámha. Mar a dúirt mé, Tá mé sa ghnó gortaithe. Tagann mé a ghortú.

“Gabh mo leithscéal as mo easpa Spáinnise, ach is é an rud atá tú ag dul a fheiceáil, ‘la violencia.’ Tá sé chun a bhrú a chur air. Tá sé chun punches a thabhairt isteach agus creidim gurb é sin go léir is féidir leis a thabhairt. Má tá sé ag traenáil agus ag iarraidh é féin a shlánú do mo stíl troda, go breá. Níl tú ceaptha teacht isteach anseo aontoiseach. Scairteann diamaint ó gach taobh.

“Is é an t-aon rud is féidir liom a rá ná go bhfuil an t-ionad seo chun fuil a chur chun cinn, allas agus deora agus fonn daoine a bheith iontach. Is cinnte go bhfuil mé ar cheann acu. Bhí mé sa seomra aclaíochta ag tabhairt mo chuid fola, mo chuid allais is mo dheora agus mé ag tabhairt sin go léir go dtí an t-ionad seo oíche Shathairn.

“Is cinnte gur mhaith liom fanacht níos gníomhaí. Sin é mo phlean i gcónaí. Chuir an phaindéim moill ar rudaí. Insíonn lucht leanúna dom i gcónaí go bhfuil siad ag iarraidh mé a fheiceáil ag dul ar ais ann… ní deirim leo ach, mise freisin. Ní hiad na trodaithe a tharraingíonn na teaghráin go léir. Ar cheart dom a bheith níos gníomhaí? Ar ndóigh. Ba mhaith liom a bheith níos gníomhaí.

“Ba mhaith liom a thaispeáint gur mise uachtar an bhairr. Is sárréalta mé. Níl an solas ag lonrú orm mar tá go leor rudaí eile ar siúl. Go dtí sin, beidh ort fanacht agus a fheiceáil. Tar Dé Sathairn, seó iontach a bheidh ann. Beidh roinnt spréacha agus tinte ealaíne ann. Tá comhraic agam nach bhfuil sásta leagan síos. Mura bhfuil sé sásta, Caithfidh mé a chur ina luí."

**JOVANIE SANTIAGO**

“Tá a fhios agam gur trodaire maith é. Oilimpeach. Tá sé óg agus beidh sé ag troid. Tá mé chun teacht chun troid freisin, mar sin má chríochnaíonn an troid go luath, ansin críochnaíonn sé go luath.

“Níl le déanamh agam ach obair bhabhta ar bhabhta, punches a chaitheamh agus babhta amháin a bhuachan ag an am. Tar éis dom Russell a bhualadh, beidh gach duine ar mo thaobh.

“Is é seo mo mheáchan. Seo an áit is compordaí dom. Bhí mé i gcónaí 140-punt agus is é sin cad tá mé chun a léiriú.

“An uair seo, Tá mé ag troid ar mo mheáchan iarbhír. Is dóigh liom láidir. Táim ag teacht go dtí an obair bhabhta ar bhabhta agus ar an Satharn feicfidh gach duine cad atá i gceist agam.”

CHAD JOHNSON TRAINING CAMP QUOTES AND PHOTOS

“I’m transitioning that flair you saw from me on the football field

all into this sport.”

Former NFL Star Wide Receiver Chad Johnson Makes Boxing Debut In an Exhibition Against Versatile Fighter Brian Maxwell on Mayweather vs. Paul SHOWTIME PPV^® Undercard Sunday, Meitheamh 6 from Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens

CliceáilANSEO for Photos from Mayweather Promotions

HOUSTON- (Bealtaine 26, 2021) – Former NFL star wide receiverChad Johnsonmade a name for himself throughout his storied career by combining elite on-field production with highlight-reel celebrations and an outspokenness that made him a household name. Anois, he will look to take that same formula into his boxing debut when he steps into the ring for an exhibition against versatile fighterbrian Maxwellar an Domhnach, June 6 as part of the Mayweather vs. Paul SHOWTIME PPV event at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens.

In addition to bringing his brand of entertainment to the event, Johnson compared his own boxing style to one of the sport’s most unique fighters.

“I’m transitioning that flair you saw from me on the football field all into this sport,” said Johnson. "Chun liom, my style is like Emanuel Augustus. Once I got those basic fundamentals down to a tee, I could add that trickery to my game.”

A long-time fan and student of the sweet science, Johnson never believed that he’d have this opportunity to box on this stage. Mar sin féin, once he received word from Mayweather and knew how long he’d have to prepare, he jumped on the chance presented.

“I never thought about stepping in the ring,” said Johnson. “I never thought there would be an opportunity to do so. But I love boxing. I’m friends with every boxer out there because I love and study all of it. I didn’t expect anything like this to happen. When Floyd called, the first thing I wanted to know, was how much time I had to prepare. Once I knew that I had enough time that I could look like myself in there, I knew I could pull it off.”

Always pushing the boundaries of what the public expects from athletes, Johnson will add another feather into what has been a remarkable career as an athlete and entertainer with this fight on June 6.

“This is a one-time thing,” said Johnson. “I’ve done some crazy things in life, and this is one to add and scratch off the bucket list. I’m coming in there to have fun and entertain.”

Tickets for the live event are on sale now at Ticketmaster.com.

Seo an méid a bhí an trodaithe a rá Dé Máirt:

**JEAN PASCAL**

“I’m very excited about the rematch. I’ve been training in Puerto Rico since December. I’ve been waiting this whole time for the rematch and I’m ready. I respect Badou, but he’s always whining after he loses. The judges said I won the fight and that’s it.

“The first fight, in the first six rounds I did everything well. I might have gotten a little overconfident. I took it a bit too easy after that. The fight got close because of that knockdown he got that wasn’t from a real punch. Without that, it wouldn’t have even been close. We’re going to settle this June 6 i Miami.

“I think I just have to pace myself a little better this fight. I got over excited because I’ve sparred with Badou before and know what I can do. I am a veteran, so I shouldn’t have gotten too excited like that. As far as knocking him down again in this fight, my mom taught me that anything you can do once, you can do twice.

“I do believe that Badou respects my power. If he doesn’t, then he better watch that fourth round again. But I also have skills with my power. I am naturally-gifted and I have the better skills. I was born for this sport and built to win.

“I really think the work in the gym will help so I don’t have ring rust. I’m a veteran. I’ve been here and done that. At this age, it’s better to have more rest than to be over trained. I had the right intensity in camp to make sure I’m not over trained.

“He’s coming for revenge and I’m coming with bad intentions. Tá sé ag dul a bheith ina seó mór, so make sure you tune-in for this one.”

**JACK BADOU**

“I’m feeling great with my new trainer Jonathon Banks. Physically I’m in amazing shape and I can’t wait. Another week and a half and it’s all going to happen.

“This has been in the works since our first fight. Last year Floyd called me and said, ‘it’s on.’ Then the pandemic hit and it got pushed back. There is a reason there is a rematch, because everyone knows who won that fight. It’s better late than never. I was back in the gym Monday after the first fight.

“There were three judges and Julie Lederman had it for me and the two other guys had never judged a big fight before. We have two judges for this fight: the right hand and the left hand. Sin é. I’m very confident for this fight and I’m not worried about the judges. I know Jean Pascal is a warrior, and I’m a warrior. Tá mé díreach réidh le dul i ngleic.

“Looking at the past, yes, I need to start faster. Gach troid, that can apply. I will listen to my corner, and we’re going to figure out how to win the fight. By any means we need.

“He can say whatever he wants about when I knocked him down. I hit him five straight times and he swung and missed and I hit him. That’s why he went down.

“This is going to be a firefight. We already know that. Tune in to this fight. Boxing is not a game and I’m going to show everyone that and try to steal the show.

“I’ve watched the last fight once or twice, maybe three times. I just need to make some small adjustments. You can always do better. I’m more confident than last time. I know we are both warriors. We’ve fought everyone. We’re the same age (Jack is 37; Pascal 38), even though I look a little bit better. I’m looking younger. Nobody has seen my birth certificate. I’m not really 37. I’m 27.”

**JARRETT HURD**

“Training camp has been great. I haven’t fought in a year and a half, so I had a chance to really take my time with this camp. I’ve had a lot of time to put in the work. I’m training with fighters like Terence Crawford, Shakur Stevenson, Troy Isley and a lot more. We’re all out here working day after day.

“Arias is a great fighter. This is going to be the type of toe-to-toe fight I like. He’s going to be there in front of me and ready to fight. Riamh Tá sé ag stopadh, so I’ll be prepared to go the distance.

“We’ve seen this story before from Arias. He talks a big game but look at his fights against top fighters. It doesn’t matter what weight I’m at, Arias knows what’s coming. I suffered a loss, but I got the win in my last fight and I’m on my way back.

“I just need a dominant win on June 6. Luis Arias can make it ugly, but I have to go win convincingly and let everyone know I’m back. I don’t want to win in a sloppy way, I want to look good doing it.

“He might think he’s catching me at the right time, but it’s not going to be a good time for him on June 6. Is féidir liom bhosca agus is féidir liom bang, ní ábhar é. We’ll decide on fight night which style I’m going to use. I know that I can beat him either way.

“I tried to work on my bad habits after my loss. I was a straight-forward guy who just came at you. I wanted to show in my last fight against Francisco Santana that I can use my height and range if I need to. I wanted to box all 10 rounds and I did that.

“I still have too much unfinished business at 154-pounds. I have a lot of fights, including my rematch against Julian Williams, that I still want to get. I want to regain my titles. Me and Jermell Charlo is probably the biggest fight at 154 ceart anois. I want to handle that before I move up in weight.”

**LUIS ARIAS**

“Camp has been excellent. Tá mé ar bís le haghaidh an troid. I think this is a perfect fight and a perfect opportunity. It’s a great matchup. I’ve been working on the right things to make sure I’m one hundred percent prepared for this fight and I think I’m catching Jarrett Hurd at the right time. He’s switching styles. He really doesn’t know how he wants to fight.

“When this fight was brought to me, he was ranked No. 1 at the Ring Magazine at 154 and that’s part of why I wanted this fight. Leonard Ellerbe asked if I was willing to fight Hurd, and I said one hundred percent. It’s all about challenging yourself. This is another challenge and I never turn down a challenge. I’ve been in there with the best and there’s nothing that Jarrett Hurd can bring to the table that I haven’t already seen.

“A win puts me right back in the mix. I’ve always been just one step away from really getting into the mix with the big guys. My last couple fights have all been just one fight away from getting that world title fight. Once I beat Jarrett Hurd on June 6, I’ll be right there with the big dogs. He’s calling out Jermell Charlo and he wants to fight all these other big names, but he’s going to have to get through me. If he loses to me, I’ll be in position for the fights that he wants.

“It’s going to be a hard fight. If he wants to bang, we can bang. If he says he wants to box, he’s not the better boxer. But there’s only one way to find out and we’re going to find out in two weeks. I have to do everything that I can do to make sure that I show up and I impress.

“I’m still young and I’m still fighting my way through. I just needed to make the proper adjustments. I’m not going to be a desperate fighter. I’m going to go in there and fight the way I fight. I’ve always had championship-level fighting in me, but I just haven’t shown it. This is a perfect opportunity for me to show it.

“I’m coming after him. Caithfidh mé a bhuachan. He’s not going to have to find me. I’m going to be right there. If I have to box him in the middle of the ring or if I have to put my head in his chest and dog him out, then that’s what I got to do. From the opening bell to the final bell, if we make it to the final bell, I’m going to be on him. We’ll see what type of adjustments he makes, but I don’t feel he’s a better inside fighter than me and I don’t feel like he’s a better boxer than me.”

**LEONARD ELLERBE, POF Promotions Mayweather**

“The world is buzzing about this whole event, including our terrific undercard with two great professional bouts. Hurd vs. Arias is going to be a scintillating bout. I’ve seen Luis up close and personal during this training camp and I know that he’s 100% prepared and ready to pull off the upset. Hurd on the other hand is looking to maintain his footprint in the 154-pound division and prove he’s the best at that weight.

“Pascal and Jack had a fantastic bout a year and a half ago on SHOWTIME. Ón clog oscailt, those guys proved they are great warriors and we expect nothing less in the rematch on June 6. The fans are truly in for a treat on that night.

“The energy between these four fighters today has been incredible. As the promoter of this event, Tá mé ar bís, so I can only imagine what the fans are in for. Hurd and Arias are both looking to make a statement, and that’s going to roll right into Pascal against Jack, who are going to pick up right where they left off in their first fight.”
