Tässä on mitä osallistujat oli sanottavaa Tiistai:
LEO SANTA CRUZ
“Unelmani on olla seuraava iso asia nyrkkeilyssä. Aiomme tehdä kovasti töitä joka päivä kuntosalilla, oppia virheistämme ja kehittyä, jotta voin olla paras taistelija. Uskon pystyväni saavuttamaan sen fanien ja median avulla.
“Hänellä on mahtavat taidot, isoja lyöntejä ja hän liikkuu erittäin hyvin. Siitä tulee kova taistelu minulle, mutta aion tehdä lujasti töitä puolustaakseni vyötäni.
“Näen Framptonin ihmisenä, joka yrittää tulla ja viedä kaiken, minkä eteen olen tehnyt kovasti töitä. En voi antaa sen tapahtua. Aion tehdä sen, mitä minun täytyy tehdä saadakseni voiton.
“Hän on erittäin taitava taistelija. Hänellä on suuri voima ja uskon, että siitä tulee jännittävä taistelu. Näitä tyyppejä vastaan ​​haluan taistella. Se antaa minulle entistä enemmän motivaatiota käydä salilla ja treenata ahkerasti.
“Olen tuntenut Mikey Garcian amatööriajoilta, ja perheemme ovat pelanneet keskenään. Olen jopa harjoitellut Robert Garcian kanssa aiemmin. On erittäin jännittävää nähdä toisen upean meksikolaisen taistelijan menevän New Yorkiin. Olen erittäin iloinen hänen puolestaan. Hän on loistava kaveri ja loistava taistelija.
“Uskon, että Frampton säilyttää voimansa painoluokissa. Hän ei pystynyt enää painamaan 122 puntaa ja hän on sanonut olevansa vielä vahvempi tällä kertaa. Se on hyvä. Sitä minä haluan. Haluan hänen tuntevan olonsa hyväksi, joten siitä tulee kova ja viihdyttävä taistelu.
“En voi antaa hänen tulla Yhdysvaltoihin. ja hanki tämä voitto. Aiomme mennä sinne katsomaan, voiko hän tuoda minusta parhaan irti. Aion olla sataprosenttisesti valmis.
“Viihdyn 126 kilossa. Haluan voittaa tämän voiton Carl Framptonia vastaan ​​ja sitten yhdistyä Gary Russell Jr., Lee Selby tai joku mestareista. Kun kehoni on valmis, nousemme painoa hakeaksemme uutta maailmanmestaruutta.
“Kun aloitin nyrkkeilyn, ajattelin vain olla kerran maailmanmestari. Sitten kun pääsin sinne, aloin ajaa tavoitteitani. Jos jatkan oppimista ja kehittymistä taistelijana, Voisin painaa jopa 140 kiloa.
“Olen innoissani voidessani taistella New Yorkissa. Se on ensimmäinen kerta, kun olen siellä. Olen innoissani uusien fanien tapaamisesta. Ihmiset, jotka ovat toivoneet minun taistelevan New Yorkissa, saavat nähdä minut. On ihmisiä, jotka eivät tunne minua, ja tämä on tilaisuuteni olla vaikuttava ja esittää heille show.”
MIKEY GARCIA
“Olen monipuolinen taistelija. Pystyn sopeutumaan melkein mihin tahansa tyyliin. Saan paljon monipuolista sparrausta, jotta voin sopeutua kaikkeen, mitä Rojas tuo tullessaan. Harjoitusleiri on sujunut erittäin hyvin ja uskon, että siitä tulee hyvä yö minulle.
“Olen nähnyt Rojasin ennenkin. Näin hänet, kun hän oli mestari. Hän on hyvä taistelija, jolla on paljon kokemusta. Hän osaa ehdottomasti nyrkkeillä ja hänellä on hyvä oikea käsi. Hän menetti tittelinsä suurelle mestarille. Hän on erittäin taitava ja kokenut.
“Olemme molemmat nyrkkeilijöitä ja yritämme työskennellä etäältä. Tällä kertaa minun on ehkä etsittävä taistelua hieman enemmän ja painostettava. Jos hän yrittää nyrkkeillä, löydän hänet. Luulen, että voimani tulee lopulta olemaan ero, ja minä murskaan hänet.
“En usko, että rengasruostetta tulee, koska en ole koskaan ollut kehän ulkopuolella. Olen ollut salilla koko ajan, sparrausta ja harjoittelua. sparraisin 10 tai 12 kierrosta, vain tehdä se. Ei siksi, että minulla olisi tappelu, vaan pitääkseni minut aktiivisena. Tiedän, että se näyttää pitkältä ajalta, mutta en todellakaan näe sitä. Tuntuu kuin olisin ollut kuusi kuukautta poissa.
“Haluan taistella vastaan 135 ja taistelemaan tittelistä siellä. Aion nähdä, miltä kehostani tuntuu tämän taistelun jälkeen, mutta se on suunnitelma tällä hetkellä. Emme katso Elion ohi. Haluan ehdottomasti palata kehään pian, jos kaikki menee hyvin.
“En ole katunut. Minun on nautittava itsestäni enemmän kuin viimeksi 10 vuotta. Kun olet nyrkkeilyssä, se on ympärivuotinen urheilu. Sinulla ei ole aikaa itsellesi, perheellesi tai ystävillesi. Jäät paljosta paitsi. Opin poissa ollessani paljon nyrkkeilystä ja muusta.
“Tästä tulee lopulta noin seitsemän viikon harjoitusleiri, mutta jo ennen sitä olen ollut kuntosalilla. En koe olevani erilainen. Tunnen olevani sataprosenttinen. Kehoni on hyvin levännyt, mikä tekee minusta nälkäisemmän ja motivoituneemman.
“Olen taistellut New Yorkissa ennenkin, ja siellä on aina ollut mahtava ja erittäin kannustava yleisö. Olin Barclays Centerissä ensimmäistä kertaa kesäkuussa 25 Thurman-Porterille ja se oli loistava areena. Siinä oli mahtavaa energiaa, enkä malta odottaa, että pääsen taistelemaan siellä. En malta odottaa, että pääsen taistelemaan Barclaysissa.
“On hienoa olla salilla kaikkien näiden erityyppisten taistelijoiden kanssa, joita veljeni treenaa. Minulla on paljon erittäin intensiivistä sparrausta. Olen saanut mahdollisuuden todella oppia eri tyyleistä ja se auttaa minua ehdottomasti.”
IVAN REDKACH
“Tämä on minulle loistava taistelu. Olen lähestymässä otsikkopotkua ja aion olla valmis Heinäkuu 30.
“Minulla on suunnitelma tälle taistelulle. Näet sen kehässä. Aion tehdä tästä jännittävän taistelun.
“Ottelun mestaruus on motivaationi, mutta keskityn täysin siihen Heinäkuu 30. Kaikki, mitä olen tehnyt, on johtaa maailmanmestaruusotteluun.
“Tiedän, että vastustajani on liukas ja erittäin nopea. Hän on hyvä nyrkkeilijä, mutta katsotaan mitä hän tuo kehään.
“Tämä on ensimmäinen leirini Leo Santa Cruzin ja hänen tiiminsä kanssa, ja se on sujunut erittäin hyvin. Tunnen olevani hyvin valmis taistelemaan.”
ANTONIO SANTA CRUZ, Leon veli & Kouluttaja
“Tämä leiri tuntuu hyvin samanlaiselta kuin tavallisesti. Isäni (Jose) on yleensä se, joka kertoo meille, mitä tehdä. Olen kehässä Leon kanssa, mutta hän on edelleen siellä. Hän on sairas, mutta hän käy edelleen kuntosalilla. Hän haluaa olla siellä Leolle.
“Frampton on hyvä taistelija. Hän aikoo taistella veljeni kanssa hyvin. Lyhyet kaverit ovat kovempia Leolle, joten varmistamme, että meillä on sparrauksia kaikenkokoisten taistelijoiden kanssa. Framptonin sisäänpääsy ei ole vaikeaa, mutta hänen pituutensa voi aiheuttaa ongelmia.
“Se on vähän enemmän paineita minulle. Yritän näyttää isälleni, että voin oppia ja auttaa Leoa olemaan parhaimmillaan. Luulen, että hänellä on hyvä yö.”
JOSE SANTA CRUZ, Leon isä & Kouluttaja
“Minusta tuntuu hyvältä. Tällä hetkellä käyn salilla joka päivä. Leo näyttää hyvältä kehässä ja harjoittelee erittäin hyvin.
“Pikkuhiljaa Antonio oppii ja jopa minä opin edelleen. Olemme molemmat tulossa paremmiksi valmentajina ja se on tavoitteemme, olla hieno. Tunnen rakkautta poikiltani ja rakastan heitä myös paljon. Olen ylpeä heistä ja olen ylpeä siitä, että he ovat minun poikiani.
“Leo on hyvin rauhallinen. En usko, että Leoon matkustaminen New Yorkiin vaikuttaa. Vaikka hänellä ei olisi suurinta osaa faneista, En usko, että se vaikuttaa häneen.
“Koskaan ei tiedä miten taisteluillassa käy. Voit valmistautua kuntosalilla, mutta joskus, kun olet kehässä, taistelusta voi tulla monimutkainen.
“Vaikka en pääse New Yorkiin, Aion katsoa taistelua. Vaikka se olisi yksi silmä auki, aion katsoa.”
ROBERT GARCIA, Miken veli & Kouluttaja
“Mikey haluaa ehdottomasti voittaa mestaruuden 135-kiloisella. Siellä on hyviä mestareita, mutta ei välttämättä valtava nimi. Lopulta Mikey haluaisi nousta 140 paunaan, missä uskon, että on paljon jännittäviä taisteluita, joita voitaisiin käydä.
“Elio on taistelija, joka on ollut poissa jonkin aikaa ja hän on entinen maailmanmestari. Hän yrittää myös palata ja antaa lausunnon. Meidän on valmistauduttava siihen, että vastustaja on pelinsä huipulla.
“Nyt kun hänellä on treffit ja harjoittelu ja sparraus, Mikey on näyttänyt todella hyvältä. Siitä on aikaa. Saatamme nähdä hieman ruostetta, hieman säätöä ajoitukseen. Mutta miten hän on ollut kuntosalilla, huippuluokan taistelijoita vastaan, hän on näyttänyt niin hyvältä, että en olisi yllättynyt, jos hän tekisi yhden parhaista suorituksistaan.”

Tässä on mitä osallistujat oli sanottavaa Torstai:
CARL Frampton
“Haluan olla jännittävissä taisteluissa. Tästä eteenpäin urallani, Haluan olla suuri. Kuka olisi parempi kohdata kuin Leo Santa Cruz? Tämä on mahdollisuus jättää nimeni historiaan ja tulla kahden painon maailmanmestariksi Irlannista.
“Olen kuunnellut Barry McGuigania siitä lähtien, kun ryhdyin ammattilaiseksi. Halusin vain imeä sen kaiken kuin sienen. Hänellä on niin paljon tietoa ja hän on ollut olemassa niin monta vuotta. Minun täytyy vain olla hänen lähellään ja oppia. Shane tekee mahtavaa työtä kouluttaa minua, ja heidän kahden välillä, Minusta tuntuu, että minusta on hyötyä joka päivä.
“On todella mukavaa olla täällä Brooklynissa, se on ihana kaupunginosa ja on niin hienoa olla täällä New Yorkissa. New Yorkissa on paljon nyrkkeilyfaneja, ja mielestäni tämä on nyrkkeilyn ykköskaupunki.
“Tuomme paljon poikia kotoa, ja toivon myös, että irlantilaisamerikkalaiset saavat tietää nimeni, ja kaikki Brooklynissa myös. Odotan noin 1,500 matkustavat fanit Belfastista. Luulen, että saan enemmän tukea kuin Santa Cruz.
“Tämä taistelu on minulle valtava, koska haluan todella luoda perinnön. Tiedän kuinka ihmiset puhuvat, ja uskon, että ihmiset puhuvat tästä vielä pitkään. Haluan ihmisten muistavan minut suurena taistelijana, siinä kaikki.
“Harjoittelen kovasti jokaista ottelua varten. Ei vähempää tai ei enempää Santa Cruzille. Odotamme erittäin kovaa taistelua ja paljon toimintaa.
“Viimeinen kerta, kun olin altavastaaja, oli Irlannin mestaruus, kun olin amatööri. Olisit voinut saada minut 11:2, Olin valtava altavastaaja. Lopetin hänet aika varhain, joten viimeksi olin altavastaaja, monet ihmiset, jotka tunsivat minut, tienasivat paljon rahaa. Tällä kertaa tulos on sama.
“Liikkuvat jopa 126 puntaa oli ehdottomasti oikea päätös minulle. Olen iso lyöjä, mutta menetin voimat 122 kiloa. Aion lyödä kovemmin ja olla parhaimmillani.
“Olen aivan oven edessä kaiken. Olen niin innoissani taisteluillasta, siitä tulee todella erityinen kokemus.
“On tärkeää tulla tunnustetuksi osavaltioissa. Täällä kaikki suuret taistelijat ympäri maailmaa päätyvät taistelemaan, ja haluan todella tulla tunnustetuksi suurena taistelijana.”
Paulie Malignaggi
“Mielestäni taisteluni Braceron kanssa on mielenkiintoinen tyylien yhteentörmäys. Meillä on samankaltaisia ​​tyylejä siinä mielessä, että pidämme nyrkkeilystä ja lyönnistä, mutta olemme molemmat myös hyvin tuttuja toisemme. Olen varma, että hänellä on jotain hihassaan minulle.
“Tällaisen Brooklynin kattavan taistelun tekeminen on faneille hienoa. Meillä molemmilla on omat seuraajamme, joten sen pitäisi luoda sähköinen tunnelma Barclays Centeriin.
“Päätapahtumasta tulee hieno taistelu. Kun katsot molempien miesten tyylejä ja sukutauluja, on vaikea ennustaa mitä tapahtuu. Molemmilla kavereilla on jännittäviä tyylejä, joten lyön vetoa siitä, että fanit saavat rahoilleen vastinetta.”
BARRY McGuigan, Frampton n johtaja, Entinen maailmanmestari & Hall of Fame
“Kun Carl voitti Scott Quiggin ja hänestä tuli yhtenäinen mestari klo 122 kiloa, uskomme, että kaikki jännittävät taistelut kyseisessä divisioonassa on ohitettu. Haluamme olla mukana jännittävissä taisteluissa.
“Quigg-taistelu ei ollut niin jännittävä kuin olisimme toivoneet, mutta tiesimme, että se tulee olemaan niin. Tiesimme, että hän tuli ottelun myöhään, ja meillä oli taktiikkamme suunniteltu hyvin. Tästä tulee paljon parempi taistelu, koska Santa Cruz on rohkea ja ottaa riskejä. Hänellä on myös aliarvostetut nyrkkeilytaidot.
“Shane tekee Carlista paremman taistelijan joka päivä. Jokainen päivä, jona et parane, on päivä, jonka menet hukkaan. Carl on uransa parhaassa fyysisessä kunnossa ja meillä on suunnitelma A, B ja C tähän taisteluun.
“Santa Cruz on loistava taistelija. Hän on hillitty, nöyrä eikä hän ole puhunut roskaa. Tämä on Carlin vaikein taistelu. Tuntuu hienolta olla mukana auttamassa Carlia saavuttamaan maksimipotentiaalinsa, se on toiseksi parasta olla itse kehässä.
“Me uskomme 100 prosenttia Framptonin kyvystä voittaa tämä taistelu ja että hän menestyy taisteluillassa.
“Carlille on luvassa hienoja taisteluita. Olemme 100 prosenttia sitoutunut Heinäkuu 30 mutta höyhensarjassa on paljon hienoja taisteluita. Meillä on paljon tukea taisteluillassa, eikä minulla ole epäilystäkään siitä, että siellä on suuri irlantilainen yleisö tukemassa Carlia.”
SHANE McGuigan, Frampton n Trainer
“Leo Santa Cruz on lyömätön, eikä minun näkökulmastani ole oikeastaan ​​mitään heikkouksia. Hän on ilmiömäinen taistelija, mutta en usko, että hän taisteli Carl Framptonin kaliiperia vastaan, monipuolinen taistelija.
“Kun hän tapaa jonkun, joka on yhtä hyvä, tai minun mielestäni, parempi kuin hän, katsotaan mistä hän on tehty. Uskon, että siitä tulee yksi vuoden jännittävimmistä otteluista.
“En lähtisi tähän taisteluun, koska en ollut kovin luottavainen Carliin, vaikka hän tulee altavastaajana. En usko, että Santa Cruz on koskaan tuntenut Carlin tuomaa voimaa. Uskon, että Carl voi voittaa hänet mukavasti, jos hän valmistautuu edelleen hyvin, ja astuu sitten kehään ja tekee sen, mihin pystyy.
“Olemme nyt päättämässä leirin ja varmistamme, että olemme 100 lukuprosentti. Meidän täytyy olla 100 prosenttia taistelemaan Leo Santa Cruzista.
“Carl on erittäin kovakätinen. Hän on erittäin taitava, todellinen monipuolinen. Hän todella elää elämää, ja se tekee sen helpoksi minulle. Miten hän harjoittelee, kuinka hän syö, kuinka hän nukkuu: hän ottaa sen vakavasti ja pitää itsestään huolta.
“Siirtyminen New Yorkiin harjoitusleirin loppuun saattamiseksi on ollut hienoa. Olisimme voineet odottaa lähemmäs taistelua iltaa, mutta haluamme jokaisen prosentin eduksemme.
“Olemme edelleen tottuneet kuumuuteen, jet lag ei ​​ole ongelma ja olemme valmiita taisteluillaksi.
“Tämä taistelu on historiaa valmisteilla. Se on taistelu, joka voi todella laittaa Carlin kartalle. Se on aina suuri mahdollisuus, kun taistelet mestaruudesta, Santa Cruzin kaliiperia vastaan.”

NEW YORK (Kesäkuu 30, 2016) – Undefeated heavyweight Jarrell Miller claims he’s America’s top heavyweight prospect. “Big Baby” will get a chance to back up his boast when he faces his toughest test to date in veteran Fred Cat vuonna päätapahtuma ShoBox: New Generation päällä Perjantai, Elokuu. 19.

 

The confident and hard-hitting Miller (17-0-1, 15 KOs) and the durable and vastly experienced Kassi (18-5-1, 10 KOs) will headline a tripleheader live on SHOWTIME at 10 p.m. JA/PT from the outdoor soccer venue Rhinos Stadium in Rochester, N.Y..

 

Two undefeated young bantamweight prospects will square off in theShoBox co-feature as world-ranked Nikolay Potapov (14-0-1, 6 KOs) ja Antonio Nieves (16-0-1, 8 KOs) meet in a 10-round bantamweight bout.

 

Vuonna avaaminen bout televisiointi, undefeated welterweight knockout artist Bakhtiyar Eyubov (10-0, 10 KOs) will face battle-tested veteran Karim Mayfield (19-3-1, 11 KOs) in a 10-round match.

 

Tickets for the event presented by Salita Promotions go on sale perjantaina at Noon ET ja ne ovat saatavilla http://www.rhinossoccer.com/ja http://www.etix.com

 

“This is an amazing opportunity. I’m in the main event going against a tough opponent, and he’s definitely game to fight,” Miller said. “I’m ready to put his lights out like I do everybody else. I know he’s durable and a little older than me. He’s a tough guy and he can take a beating. Niin kaukana, he’s only been stopped once. I’ll be the second.

 

“I’m going back to basics in this camp. I’m an advanced fighter, but there are a couple of things I’ve wanted to work on. It’s easy for heavyweights to rely on power and forget about technique. You see what happened to Dominic Breazeale against Anthony Joshua? His power didn’t mean jack because there was no technique behind it. I want to be the kind of fighter who puts his technique first and power last.”

 

“I approach Jarrell like all young fighters,” Kassi said. “I’m a seasoned pro that has fought top-tier opponents. Jarrell will have to bring his ‘A game’ against me. He’s got size and power, but it’s nothing I haven’t seen. I’m tired of getting robbed by judges like in El Paso (against Chris Arreola), and in Alabama (against Dominic Breazeale). That should have been me fighting Anthony Joshua in The O2. Against (Hughie) Raivo, the cut saved him. Another round or two and he would have been done. Then we heard what we always hear, ‘oh, Fury had a bad night, so did Breazeale, so did Arreola.’ They all seem to have ‘bad’ nights when I’m in the other corner. I’m hoping to actually get some credit when Miller has a ‘bad’ night too. I’m a heavyweight boxer, that’s boxer underlined. I move my feet, I use angles, I hit and don’t get hit. That’s boxing and it’s my art. Boxing fans are going to have a great time watching me dismantle a giant.”

 

“I am very happy to be back on SHOWTIME fighting the best opponent of my career,” Eyubov said. “I know this will be my hardest fight to date and that’s what motivates me. I am grateful that I am getting an opportunity to prove myself and I want to show that I am ready for the best fighters in the world. I am ready for the boxing world to know my name. Elokuu 19, Karim Mayfield, here I come.”

 

“This will be a special event at Rochester Rhinos soccer stadium. We have America’s brightest heavyweight contender in Jarrell ‘Big Baby’ Miller and a knockout sensation out of Brooklyn by way of Kazakhstan in Bakhtiyar ‘Bakha’ Eyubov,” promoter Dmitriy Salita sanoi. “This show has all the ingredients to be one of the most talked about boxing events of the summer, and we think Miller has all the skills and charisma to break through in the heavyweight division. I am grateful to SHOWTIME and Rhinos Stadium that boxing fans will witness talented fighters in their toughest fights to date. I look forward to an explosive night of boxing.”

 

“Wendy and I are so excited to be hosting both SHOWTIME and the fighting debut of Jarrell ‘Big Baby’ Miller at Rhinos Stadium,"Sanoi Wendy ja David Dworkin, owners of the Rochester Rhinos soccer stadium. "Elokuu 19 will be a great opportunity to showcase our stadium and the City of Rochester to a nationwide audience.”

 

The menacing Miller, a 6-foot-4 Brooklyn, N.Y.. syntyperäinen, is a consensus top 15 heavyweight – he’s ranked No. 8 vuonna WBO, Älä. 9 in the WBA and No. 14 vuonna IBF. The 27-year-old former professional kickboxer has knocked out six consecutive opponents as he’s risen through the rankings as one of America’s top heavyweight hopes. Prior to Miller’s knockout of Nick Guivas päällä Toukokuu 27, his previous two fights were onShoBox – a third round destruction of Akhror Muralimov last October and a knockout of Donovan Dennis in January in which he was pushed to the seventh round for the first time.

 

Kassi has been in with some of the most recognizable names in the heavyweight division, mukaan lukien Amir Mansour, Dominic Breazeale ja Hughie Fury. The 36-year-old fought to a disputed majority draw with three-time world title challenger Chris Arreola last July on PBC on CBS in which most ringside observers, mukaan lukien ShoBox analyytikko Steve Farhood, had Kassi winning by a wide margin. The New Orleans resident has been stopped just once – in 2014 by Mansour – and stands as an excellent barometer for Miller’s progression as a legitimate contender.

 

The fast-rising Potapov, of Potolsk, Venäjä, is ranked in the top 15 in three of the four sanctioning bodies (Älä. 7 WBO, Älä. 13 IBF, Älä. 14 WBA) after just 15 ammattikäyttöön taistelee. A former amateur standout with over 200 taistelee, the 25-year-old Potapov has already gone at least 10 rounds seven times since turning professional in 2010. The only blemish on his record is a draw with undefeated prospect Stephon Young hänen viimeinen taistelu on Huhtikuu 15 päällä ShoBox.

 

Coincidently, the only blemish on Antonio Nieves’ record is a 2015 draw with Stephon Young. The 29-year-old is coming off his first 10-round performance, a unanimous decision over then once-beaten Oscar Mojica kesäkuuta 18. The Cleveland, Ohio native will face his toughest opponent to date in fellow unbeaten Potapov in the matchup of unbeaten bantamweights.

 

The Brooklyn-based Eyubov has passed every test he’s faced, and knocked out all of his opponents in the process. The 29-year-old native of Kazakhstan is coming off an impressive third-round stoppage of veteran Jared Robinson last January on ShoBox. Eyubov will step up his level of opposition when he faces Karim Mayfield, a 35-year-old veteran who owns wins over Mauricio Herrera ja Steve Forbes and has never been stopped in 23 taistelee.

 

Barry Tompkins soittaa ShoBox toimia eturivin kanssa Steve Farhood ja entinen maailmanmestari Raul Marquez will serve as expert analysts. Vastaava tuottaja on Gordon Hall kanssa Rich Gaughan tuottavat ja Rick Phillips ohjaamisen.

Regarding his upcoming fight against Reynoso, Lopez said, “Everything is good. I’m starting to turn up my sparring. I have switched trainers to Ronnie Shields Houston. I see a lot of improvement since my last fight.

 

“Reynoso is a good fighter from Argentina. He is in Canada now, so I am sure he is getting good sparring there. He is kind of wild, but guys like that are hard to fight because you don’t know where the punches are coming from, but we will be prepared for anything.”

 

Born in Phoenix and raised in Los Angeles, Lopez moved to San Antonio at 15. Hän meni 125-23 in the amateurs and won six national championships before turning pro at 21 Helmikuussa 2012.

The 25-year-old Reynoso brings a 10-fight winning streak into his United States and ShoBox debyytti. A five-year pro, the South American lightweight champion fought his initial 18 fights in Buenos Aires before winning his last fight and lone start this year on a decision over Cristian Arrazola viime Toukokuu 20 Kanadassa. Reynoso’s lone defeat came in his fourth fight.

 

“Everything is going well in training camp,’’ Reynoso said. “We know that Lopez is tall for 122 pounds and he has good hand speed. He has a good name and we will try to learn more in the next few weeks.

 

“This is a big opportunity for us and we will do our best. This is a big fight and we know we have to win. Voitolla, we would hope to get a world title opportunity.’’

 

Ronald Ellis vs. Julius Jackson: Eight-round middleweight bout

The draw snapped a four-fight-knockout streak for Ellis, who’s won all 10 of his knockouts inside two rounds (eight in the first) since turning pro in 2011.

 

“This is going to be another coming out party for me,’’ the 5-foot-11, 25-year-old Ellis said. “The last fight was a draw. I had some problems with my hand, but I’m back and this is a step for me. Hopefully he comes to fight. I hope he brings it 100 percent because I am bringing 200 prosentti.

 

“I am glad to be on ShoBox jälleen. I showed the fans a little bit in my last fight. They can expect the same thing but a little bit more on Heinäkuu 22.''

 

Jackson is making his second ShoBox alku. In his debut – and initial go in the U.S. – the older brother of Johannes and son of former two-division world champion Julian “The Hawk” Jackson registered two knockdowns en-route to a ninth-round TKO over Jonathan Nelson (19-2, 10 KOs) joulu. 20, 2014.

O’Shaquie Foster vs. Rolando Chinea: Eight-round featherweight bout

O’Shaquie (pronounced “oh-SHACK-ee”) Foster is making his third appearance on ShoBox. Viime Helmikuu. 19, he began to live up to expectations when he rebounded from a sub-standard performance in his ShoBox debyytti (an eight-round decision loss to Samuel Seah marraskuussa 2015) to register a seventh-round TKO over previously undefeated Lavisas Williams (8-0-1).

 

Edistää, 22, dropped southpaw Williams four times – in the second, third, fourth and seventh rounds. Three of the knockdowns appeared to result from a push, but Williams’ gloves touched the canvas each time so they went into the books as knockdowns. After the final knockdown in the seventh, the fight was stopped at 52 sekunnin kierroksella.

 

“Everything is going good,’’ Foster said. “I’ve been doing a lot of conditioning. I am in the best shape of my life. Chinea has a good jab and I know he will be in a good shape.

“Ever since I moved to Virginia to train, my conditioning, mentality and confidence has gone way up and that was the difference from my first fight to my last fight on ShoBox. Päällä Heinäkuu 22, I will be even that much better.’’

 

A highly decorated amateur standout, the 5-foot-8½ inch Foster advanced to the 2012 US-. Olympic Trials where he lost to unbeaten pro prospect, Joseph "Jo-Jo" Diaz.

“I treat every opponent the same,’’ Chinea. “I give everything I got and I leave it all in the ring. I know Foster was a good amateur. I know he can box and I know he has some pop.

 

“This is the moment I’ve dreamed about since I started boxing at 14. My main goal is to tune out the crowd and win. I want to be a main event fighter on SHOWTIME and this is the first step.’’

Khiary Gray-Pitts vs. Ismael Garcia: Eight-round super welterweight bout

Gray-Pitts, 23, will be boxing on ShoBox ensimmäistä kertaa. Ambidextrous with quick hands and feet, Gray-Pitts turned pro in June 2014. He fought three times that year, eight times in 2015 (8-0, 8 KOs, seven in the first, one in the second) and this will be his third fight in 2016.

 

“I’m very excited,’’ Gray-Pitts said. “Now I get to showcase my skillset to the whole world. It’s something I’ve been waiting for. There’s still more that people haven’t seen yet when it comes to me. Now I get to see what I have the ability to do. I’m able to block [the crowd] ulos.

 

“The more pressure there is, the more relaxed I am. I don’t know a lot about my opponent, but it doesn’t matter as long as I go in there and get done what I need to get done.”

 

The 5-foot-9 Gray-Pitts is coming off a second-round knockout overQuinton Willis viime Toukokuu 13. In his outing before last, the previous Helmikuu. 19, won a 10-round decision over Eduardo Flores.

Garcia’s initial seven fights took place in Atlantic City, the last three in Philadelphia.

“It is my television debut, and everything we have been working on in my first 10 fights we will put together for this fight,’’ Garcia said. “This is SHOWTIME. Being on ShoBox is a long time coming for me. It’s what I’ve dreamed about since I started boxing. It’s his TV debut as well so I know he will be on top of his game. We will be preparing 100 percent for that and then some.

 

“I have seen a little of Gray-Pitts on tape. This will be my toughest test, as I will be his toughest test. When you have 13-0 taistelut 10-0, it will be a good fight.’’

“I’m thrilled to return to the ring on this big stage for my first fight in Brooklyn, and I’m ready to put on a show,” said Harrison. “Fighting for a world title is my dream and I know that I have a challenge in front of me. I’m working hard in camp to get another knockout and to make my mark on the division.”

 

“This is the start of realizing my dream,” Rabchenko said. “America is the Mecca of boxing so it is a huge privilege for me to be asked to fight there. American fans like to see knockouts and I like to knock people out so I think they will like what they see. I think I can build a fan base there. I am hungrier than ever. I have not seen much of Harrison, but I am ready for anyone. People say he is a very good fighter with good power. I’m not worried. I have good power as well and I think I will have too much for him.”

 

Klo vain 25-vuotias, Harrison (23-1, 19 KOs) has showed tremendous promise.

“I’m looking to make a statement by winning this fight,” said Bracero. “Paulie and I have been friends since the amateurs and I’m thankful to have this opportunity, but he’s had his run. Now it’s time for me to have mine. This fight is going to change my life.”

I want to thank Leo Santa Cruz and his team for having me in their camp as we both prepare ourselves to put on tremendous performances come Heinäkuu 30."

 

“I couldn’t be more excited about this fight,"Maanviljelijä sanoi. “This is my Barclays Center debut and it is going to be a spectacular performance. I have called out anyone and everyone in the 130- pound division to no avail, so now I’m moving up to 135 to take on Redkach, one of the most feared punchers in the division. Redkach is an aggressive guy and I know he is coming to fight, but there is no way I leave that ring without my hand being raised. This is a fight where I can and I will make a major statement. I’m willing to fight whoever they put in front of me to inch closer to a world title opportunity and Heinäkuu 30 is another step in that direction. I tip my hat off to Redkach for giving me this fight, but this is my time to shine.”

 

Syntynyt Ukrainassa, vaan taistelevat pois Los Angeles, REDK (19-1-1, 15 KOs) began boxing at the age of six and has put together an impressive career since turning pro in 2009. The 30-year-old owns victories over Tony Luis, Sergey Gulyakevich ja Yakubu Amidu. Viimeksi, Redkach knocked out Erick Daniel Martinez lokakuussa 2015 and fought to a draw with Luis Cruz huhtikuussa.

 

Representing the fighting city of Philadelphia, Maanviljelijä (24-1-1, 5 KOs) on voittanut 14 bouts in a row since losing to unbeaten world champion Jose Pedraza sisään 2012. The 25-year-old has come on strong in recent years, upsetting previously unbeaten fighters such as Emmanuel Gonzalez, Enkeli Luna ja Camilo Perez. Farmer dominated veteran Gamaliel Diaz in March and will make his Barclays Center debut on Heinäkuu 30.

BROOKLYN (Kesäkuu 26, 2016) – Prizefighting returned to CBS lauantaina with a Fight of the Year candidate as undefeated welterweight world champion Keith Thurman edged former world champion Shawn Porter in a close but unanimous decision scored 115-113 by all three ringside judges.

 

The 12,718 fans in attendance at Barclays Center in Brooklyn and the viewers across the U.S. watching the first primetime boxing event on CBS since Muhammed Ali-Leon Spinks in 1978 were treated to a slugfest between two of the brightest stars in boxing’s glamour division.

 

Thurman (27-0, 22 KOs) and Porter (26-2-1, 16 KOs) combined to throw over 1200 punches in the SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING on CBS event, esitteli Premier Boxing Champions. The marquee showdown was a story of accuracy vs. activity, as Thurman landed 50 prosenttia valtaansa laukausta, verrattuna 38 percent for Porter, ja 44 percent of his total punches compared to just 36 percent for the challenger. While Thurman landed at a higher percentage, Porter was the busier fighter, throwing over 100 more punches across 12 kierrosta.

 

“One Time” and “Showtime” delivered as advertised, with the powerful sharpshooter buckling Porter multiple times, while the swarming and smothering Porter barreled forward to bully Thurman into the ropes. And while there were no knockdowns, the back-and-forth blockbuster never lacked action and culminated in a standing ovation in the second-highest attended boxing event in Barclays Center history.

 

“I want to thank Shawn Porter for a tremendous fight. He’s a great warrior,” said Thurman. “Defense is the key to victory. He smothers his punches a lot and makes it difficult for the judges to score. I was able to rock him with clear, effective blows and I believe that was the difference today.

 

“I would give him a rematch. It was great fight. He was a great opponent. Everyone was saying would he be my toughest opponent to date. I wasn’t able to drop him but I did buckle him a few times.”

The former world champion Porter, a perennial underdog but consummate gentleman, didn’t complain about being on the losing end of his second close decision in a title bout.

 

“We worked hard, Keith is a great champion,” Porter said. “My dad says to keep your head up. I think I won the fight, but I’m satisfied because the competitor came out tänä iltana.

 

“We need that rematch. I know the fans want that rematch. If he gives me another chance, I’m going to work hard in the ring and leave with his title.”

 

The opening bout of the CBS telecast featured a matchup of undefeated super welterweights as Jarrett Hurd graduated from prospect to legitimate contender in the stacked 154-pound class with a dominating 10th round TKO over Oscar Molina.

 

Hurd (18-0, 12 KOs) got to work early, flooring Molina for the first time in his career in the opening round with a powerful counter right uppercut. The bigger and taller Hurd was the more active fighter from the outset, dismantling the previously unbeaten Mexican Olympian with a supremely effective inside game. Hurd threw nearly 750 punches over 10 kierrosta, verrattuna vain 376 for Molina, yhteyksiä myös 220 power shots at a nearly 40 percent clip.

 

Hurd put a stamp on his performance in the final round, closing the show by out landing Molina 33-7 in the final round. With Molina taking a brutal beating and seemingly defenseless in the final minute of the final round, Ricky Gonzalez stepped in to halt the contest at 2:02.

 

“This is definitely a big win for my career,” Hurd said. “He was taking a lot of shots, but he knew how to survive. It was a big uppercut that knocked him down in round one. People know from my last fight that I have a great right uppercut. He was hurt a couple of times. I don’t think it was a bad stoppage. Molina is a very tough guy who just kept coming through.

 

“This fight here puts me up with the top contenders in the division. I felt like I could have gone three or four more rounds. I was getting stronger as the fight went on. We’re going right back to the gym so we can get in there again.”

 

Molina (13-1-1, 10 KOs) protested, but barring a stunning knockout he was just seconds away from suffering the first loss of his career via a unanimous decision.

 

“I felt like Hurd was throwing a lot of punches in the tenth round but they weren’t really hurting me,” Molina said. “He was staying busy but he was never really hurting me.

 

“I went low and I had my head down and he caught me with that uppercut in the first round. He got me with a shot I wasn’t expecting but it was definitely a flash knockdown. I wasn’t hurt.

 

“I was supposed to use my footwork a lot more but I ended up smothering my shots. He had an awkward defense with a lot of bending down and I couldn’t get into a rhythm.

 

“This was a big opportunity for me and I felt like I fought a good fight. I’m going to come back stronger. We’re going to work on a lot of things and get back in there.”

Earlier in the evening on SHOWTIME, undefeated heavyweight sensation Anthony Joshua successfully defended his IBF Heavyweight World Championship for the first time with a seventh round knockout of previously unbeaten American Dominic Breazeale at The O2 in London. VIDEO: http://s.sho.com/28VGgsa

 

Below are quotes from Joshua after Lauantain win on SHOWTIME BOXING INTERNATIONAL:

 

Many thought that Dominic Breazeale wouldn’t be able to stand up to your power and speed, but were you grateful for the opportunity to work a little bit more of your boxing skills?

“Well, it’s hard because you can see they’re hurt with every shot – well not every shot – but when you start catching them flush, they can feel the shots with these ten ounce gloves on. Joten, it’s just a matter of time, but in the process I didn’t want to be receiving any haymakers on the way back.

 

“It’s been tough I had two weeks off after my last fight, and got straight back in the gym so it was tough. I get a nice little break for once and then I can come back with recharged batteries.”

 

We know Deontay Wilder was watching the fight. Have you got a message for him, the WBC Champion?

“Unbelievable inspirational person. He was patient, 30-odd fights [ja] got his hands on the WBC [vyö]. I’m following suit. I’m making my way into the U.S. with SHOWTIME backing me as well. Joten, he watched that.

 

“He can pick up whatever he wants to pick up from that, but it’s so different when you’re in the ring with each other. So one day we’ll get to experience what each other’s about.”

 

Who do you want to fight next?

“Well I think it’s gonna have to be the likes of [Joseph] Parker. I was really looking at Fury… I hope he gets better soon. He hurt his ankle unfortunately, which has postponed it because I was hoping to get that some time in the winter if everything went well July 9th like it didtänä iltana, but we’re gonna have to reschedule that and in the meantime, we can look at other opponents like Parker, if he’s vacant, or anyone else that the people want.”

 

What do you think that you still need to work on?

“Rest. I need to rest. I’m tired, I’m working hard and as I said, now i can get

KEITH THURMAN
“It’s an honor to be on this platform. I’m excited to be back at Barclays Center. My last fight at Barclays Center was the first time I felt the fans give me love and I felt like I made it.
“I’m excited to feel the energy in the arena. We’re recovered and we’re ready. We did what we needed to so that we’re ready forLauantai yö.
“As I think about this fight, these are dreams coming true for me. Sometimes I feel like I’m living a dream. I think about how I was raised by Ben Getty to this moment. Ben used to say that my moment was ‘right around the corner,’ and now it’s here. He was a wise man and he knew what he was talking about.
“This is a great fight. This is what the boxing fans want to see. I truly believe you are looking at two of the best welterweights in the world.
“I’m here as an entertainer. I’m here for the love of the sport. The fans want to see these kinds of fights. It’s obvious in the welterweight division that we are the two most exciting and devastating fighters in the division.
“Everybody kept talking about the sparring video, so I just decided to put it out. Sparring is sparring and fighting is fighting. This fight will be judged and this time I’ll have eight-ounce gloves on.
“It’s always been my dream to be the undisputed champion of the world.
“I’m looking forward to a great performance. I’m excited to a great challenge from Shawn Porter. There is a burning desire within myself to have a knockout victory. It’s hard to make world-class fighters quit. The fans ultimately want to see that knockout victory.
“There are real stakes are on the line lauantaina yö. Our careers are on the line. My title is on the line. My undefeated record is on the line. It’s a great fight and a great matchup.
“I do believe that with each and every fight, you step up, you step up and you step up. Joten, thus the stakes are always higher and there are those times where you get a decent fight. But like I said, this is a great fight at a great moment of both athletes’ careers. We are both in our prime. I’m 27-years-old, Shawn is 28-years-old, we’ve both accomplished many great things and a victory lauantaina night is just going to be another thing to add to the resume.
“This really is the best fight of the best. We’re trying to satisfy the fans and we’re trying to challenge ourselves, push ourselves, and see where we fit in and how great we really are. I’m going to show you Lauantai night how great Keith “One Time” Thurman really is.
“Just like Ali said, Lauantai yö, I’m going to show you how great I am.”
SHAWN PORTER
“Se on täällä. It’s been long anticipated and it’s here. I have never been more excited to fight in my life. It’s a blessing. Along this journey I’ve been able to learn the basics and excel in the basics and I found myself in a position where I’ve been able to be very successful.
“My hometown Cleveland Cavaliers winning the NBA title is definitely a motivation. It motivates me to be a winner. I want to bring this belt back to Ohio.
“I’m looking forward to this kind of moment to shine. That’s how you gain notoriety and become bigger. Ei ole paineita, just excitement.
“I’m just looking forward to getting in there and getting that energetic feeling. I want to feel the excitement of getting into the ring and all the adrenaline that rushes through.
“This is the fight I wanted. I wanted to have fun training for a fight like this. Keith has made it possible. He’s so good it pushes me to be better.
“This isn’t the first time and it won’t be the last time that two friends fight. I’m done talking about us being friends because it’s time for us to start punching each other. My plan is to have great defense, avoid getting hit and win the fight.
“I didn’t take much time off after the postponement. We tried to train and stay ready through the cancellation. You never know when the phone is going to ring. We just wanted to stay in shape, get better and be ready for anything.
“I feel like if Floyd Mayweather comes back, he should fight the winner of this matchup. I believe that will be me.
“I’m not going to go in there looking for a knockout and throw my hands wildly. I’m going to keep up the pace that I normally keep up. I’m a great boxer. People consider me a boxer, but I may surprise you.”
JARRETT HURD
“Olen kiitollinen tästä mahdollisuudesta. This is a great shot for me right now. In my last fight I had an opportunity similar to this. I was a fill-in for television and I did what I was supposed to do.
“Success is accomplished when preparation meets opportunity. I know things like this can happen. It doesn’t change anything. We’re going to go out and do what we trained for.
“You always get butterflies before getting in the ring but that’s normal. Molina is very experienced and has good hand speed but I know what I can do. We’re ready for this.
“I’m happy to be on this stage. This could be the biggest fight of the year and I’m extremely blessed to open it up.
“I’m going to go out there and put on another terrific performance. Molina, he’s an Olympian and he has a lot of experience. He’s a crafty fighter and we’re going to do what we have to do to get the victory.
“We’re ready to do what we’re going to do. Se tulee olemaan suuri taistelu lauantaina night.”
OSCAR MOLINA
“I’m ready for this. I’m more than ready for this. These type of fights are what gets me up to train.
“This guy I’m fighting is young, undefeated and a prospect like myself. I know he’s going to be ready and it’s going to be a tough fight but I’m ready for him.
“This is a huge deal for me. I was already excited to be on this huge undercard. When they told me that I was moving up to CBS I knew how big of an opportunity it is for me and my career.
“Hurd is a tall and lanky fighter. I saw his last fight and I see that he does well with guys who are flat footed. My boxing skills and my footwork are something he’s never seen before. Frank Galarza was tailor-made for Hurd and I think I’m going to be able to give him different looks.
“I’m a boxer-puncher and I can adapt to different styles. I also have power for big knockouts but my boxing skills are most important.
“Fighting in the Olympics taught me to adapt to different styles. I have a fan-friendly style and I’m excited to put on a show.”
DAN BIRMINGHAM, Thurman’s Trainer
“We’re ready for this fight. Keith trains hard every day and we know Shawn and Kenny well. I’ve brought them to my gym and these two guys have gone a lot of rounds together.
“I think Keith Thurman is the most gifted guy in boxing. He does everything right. Lauantai night we’re looking for a great fight and I know in my heart that we will be victorious.”
KEN PORTER, Porterin Father & Kouluttaja
“On hienoa olla täällä. It’s great to be on this stage with Shawn. This isn’t something we just started getting ready for, this is something he’s been getting ready for since birth. I always had a mindset to put Shawn in a position to excel in life. He has not disappointed.
“I know these guys are going to give it everything they have. It will be 100 percent for as long as it lasts. We’re prepared to take the championship. These are great guys here to the right, mutta lauantaina we’re bringing everything to the table.
“We’re coming to deliver a great show. Enjoy yourselves lauantaina night.”
LOU Dibella, Presidentti Dibella Viihde
“This is what it’s all about. Tänä lauantaina yö, the best is fighting the best. It’s right here in Brooklyn on CBS. It’s the first fight on CBS in primetime since Muhammad Ali fought over 30 vuosia sitten.
“This is a terrific card from top to bottom. There is a tremendous undercard, a great co-feature and a main event that boxing fans have been waiting for a long time.
“This is an undercard chock full of talent. You will want to get there early as there are evenly matched bouts all night.
“SHOWTIME has highlighted the 154-pound division in recent shows, so it makes sense that there will be another significant matchup in that division on CBS Lauantai night with Jarrett Hurd and Oscar Molina.
“We’re not going to talk about friendship and respect anymore with these two guys, that’s in the past and the future. These guys know their future is dependent on beating up the other guy and a fight of this magnitude makes the stakes even higher.
“The best want to fight the best and it starts Lauantai yö. The winner of this fight wants to be the best in the world. Both men want to be an undisputed welterweight champion.”
STEPHEN ESPINOZA, Varatoimitusjohtaja & Toimitusjohtaja, Showtime Urheilu
“Kesäkuu 25 is a very special day and night for us at CBS. It begins with the heavyweight world title being contested between Anthony Joshua and Dominic Breazeale and then the return of boxing to primetime CBS for the first time in almost 40 vuotta.
“This was an easy fight to make. Shawn and Keith, neither one hesitated for a second in taking this fight. All credit goes to them for taking this fight. It’s a difficult fight for both on a big stage.
“Boxing takes criticism for not making the right fights at the right time. One of the bad habits we have is that we spend time thinking about fights that might get made. But now we have the right fight, at the right time and at the right venue. It’s a disservice to not recognize that what is going lauantaina is very special and very exciting.”
BRETT YORMARK, Brooklyn Sportsin toimitusjohtaja & Viihde
“It’s an exciting week at Barclays Center. Tänä iltana we host the NBA Draft, the weigh-in huomenna and our big event Lauantaiyö. The momentum is building for this fight and we are on pace for the biggest crowd for a boxing event since we opened.
“We are excited about bringing a great night of fights to Brooklyn. We welcome Keith Thurman and Shawn Porter back to Brooklyn as they have both fought there once before.
“It’s become tradition to have both of you fight in our ring and we know how popular you are with our fans and we love to have you back.
“This will be the first primetime fight on CBS since the first Muhammad Ali-Leon Spinks fight in 1978 and it’s a big moment for the boxing community for sure. We look forward to hosting everyone lauantaina night.”

Major statement made by Undefeated Demetrius “Boo Boo” Andrade

Jätä kommentti
PROVIDENCE (Kesäkuu 23, 2016) – A year after he was stripped of his world super welterweight title by the World Boxing Organization (WBO), voittamaton superkeskisarja Demetrius “Boo Boo” Andrade has repositioned himself off of his sensational June 11 th stoppage of Willle “Suuri” Nelson päällä SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP NYRKKEILY®.
The 28-year-old Andrade (23-0, 16 KOs) decked Nelson (25-3-1, 15 KOs) four times, finishing off his game opponent who’d never been knocked out, vuonna 12th round of their fight at Turning Stone Casino (Verona, N.Y.).
Andrade successfully defended his WBO International title and also gained several valuable options in terms of world title and/or major fights. He is now the No. 1 mandatory contender in the World Boxing Council (WBC), waiting to challenge the winner of a mandated title fight between new champion Jermell Charlo and WBC Silver title holder Charles Hatley. The 2008 US-. Olympian is No. 2 vuonna WBO, Älä. 3 in the World Boxing Association (WBA), ja Miguel Cotto is No. 1 in both of those sanctioning organizations.
After his sensational, statement-making performance against Nelson, Andrade said he wanted to fight anybody whose name started with “C” and ended in ‘O” – the Charlo brothers (IBF champion isJermall Charlo), Cotto and “Canelo” (Saul Alvarez).
“I am the best fighter in the 154-pound division,” Andrade proclaimed. “I’m the No. 1 contender in the WBO. Liam Smith is holding my belt but I don’t believe he’ll fight me. I’m the WBC mandatory for the Charlo-Hatley winner. Once I get that belt I’ll beat Charlo’s twin for the IBF title and I’ve been calling out (WBA champ Erislandy) Lara for a long time. But ‘Canelo’ is the big money fight out there for me and who I want the most. I can be ready for him in September for his next fight. Lopussa päivän, we’ll see what’s up, but I want to get right back in the ring as soon as one of these guys step up to fight me.”
During his long layoff, Andrade made a conscious effort to be a more fan-friendly fighter, building up his strength to go along with his superior quickness. Many called his last fight, ‘Mayweather-like,’ in which Demetrius displayed tremendous power and explosiveness, which complemented his incredible boxing skills and defense.
“When I first turned pro,” Andrade selitti, “I was getting in the ring with some good fighters, so I was cautious and settled in on just getting a victory. I learned that I needed to change in order to put butts in seats. I don’t get hit and I also showed that I could go 12 kierrosta, good for experience, and still takeout a tough fighter like Nelson who had never been stopped. I wasn’t going for the knockout but, after I caught him early with a right hook, I knew that it would come if I was patient and kept up the pressure. I think Willie can give any of the other top guys at 154 a good fight. He has a big heart and came to win. It wasn’t as easy as it may have looked on the scorecards. Willie pushed me to look good. During my layoff, I worked hard on my craft to be better, concentrating on strength and conditioning, and it really showed in my last fight. I worked on my fundamentals and had a lot of success going to the body. I believe fans saw improvement in my performance and appreciated it.”
More comfortable knowing his promotional issues are now in the past (his A Team Promotions owns 50% of his rights to go along with 25% each for Banner Promotions (Artie Pelullo) ja Star Boxing (Joe DeGuardia), Andrade is prepared to clean out the 154-division before eventually moving up in weight to take on Gennadi Golovkin in what Andrade believes can be a mega-fight in due time.
“I’ve always known since I first saw Demetrius in the ring at 14 years old that he was going to become a superstar,” A Team Promotions president Ja Farris kommentoi. “There were so many doubters and obstacles along the way. It sure took a long time to get here but I’m so happy for him that his moment has finally arrived. You don’t know how good it feels to see him fulfill his destiny.”
Andrade, itse asiassa, hasn’t lost inside the ring in nearly eight years, when he was ripped off against Korean boxer Kim Jung-Joo, 11-9, in the quarterfinals of the 2008 Olympialaiset Pekingissä, Kiina. The boxer named “Boo Boo” – as a kid with cuts, bumps and bruises – doesn’t plan on changing his unbeaten script.
“I’m still untouchable,” Andrade concluded. “I’ve shown my continued commitment to boxing. It’s ‘Boo Boo’ aika!”
