Leonard Ellerbe
Hello everyone, welcome to today’s Badou Jack versus James DeGale media conference call. Today we are going to hear from the main event participants who will be headlining next week’s main event at Barclays Center in Brooklyn. Our event will be live on SHOWTIME and our event is promoted by Mayweather Promotions and DiBella Entertainment. Badou Jack, WBC Super middleweight champion, he’ll be taking on the IBF super middleweight champion – James DeGale and are meeting in a world title unification that fits the best versus the best. We’re very excited about our great event. These two fighters have been on the collision course ever since they won their world titles. They both made successful world titles defenses on last April and with the intention of this big, big moment, Sabtu depan, January 14th.
The SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING doubleheader begins at 9:30 PM ET/6:30 PM PT and will open our show with IBF Junior Lightweight World Champion Jose Pedraza who’ll be battling Mayweather Promotions own rising star Gervonta Davis. Tambahan lagi, there will be action on SHOWTIME that streams starting at 7 pm ET/PT and it will be headlined by Four-Division World Champion, Amanda Serrano. Which will be a very, very exciting fight. She will be defending her Junior Featherweight title against Two-Division Yazmin Rivas. This will be the first nationally televised female world title fight in nearly a decade.
First I’d like to introduce my dear friend and promotional partner Lou DiBella, Presiden DiBella Hiburan.
Lou DiBella
Thank you Leonard and it’s been a real pleasure working with you Leonard and Floyd and your team. I’ve been very impressed by the professionalism and you guys have been great to work with and it’ll be great to welcome you guys to your first major promotion in New York next week. So I look forward to seeing you here. As Leonard pointed out this is a terrific card from beginning to end and that begins even with the off TV undercard which will feature undefeated Polish heavyweight, Polish-American heavyweight Adam Kownacki against a top opponent in one of the toughest fights of his career so far. Prospect Julian Sosa who is an undefeated prospect from New York City former Golden Glove champion and a huge ticket seller in New York. Noel Murphy another local fighter from Ireland is on the card as well.
Kenny Robles who was recently signed by Mayweather Promotions from Staten Island, New York will be in action. And those guys will headline the off TV undercard. Leonard mentioned the main event Amanda Serrano who I promote one of the best pound for pound women fighters in the world against Yazmin Rivas. That’s a tremendous fight and I thank Stephen Espinoza for giving the ladies that kind of an opportunity in showcase. The SHOWTIME EXTREME card will also feature a co-feature bout between number two middleweight contenders in the WBC,Ievgen Khytrov versus Immanuwel Aleem another undefeated middleweight prospect. That will be for WBC Silver Middleweight title and the winner will be on course for an eventual shot at the WBC Middleweight Championship.
So the undercard is terrific and the main event really doesn’t need a lot of hype. It’s as good as it gets. It’s the best versus the best. It doesn’t really get any better than yet. I was lucky enough to promote early in his career Badou Jack who is a terrific, terrific fighter. He’s improved and proven himself in every test he’s faced. James DeGale is a former Olympic gold medalist on a 13 fight winning streak. One of the most talented and also one of the most interesting and charismatic fighters in all of boxing in the 168-pound division. So we have a great main event for SHOWTIME to start the year. And I’ll throw it back to Leonard to introduce the man who put this fight together with us. Leonard.
L. Ellerbe
Okay thank you Lou DiBella for those great comments. Just like Lou DiBella just mentioned we owe a great, great deal of thanks to Stephen Espinoza who worked tirelessly with our team and Lou DiBella’s team to put this great event together. He’s a very dear friend and like I said we are really, really excited again to be working with SHOWTIME and it gets no better than that. So without further or due I’d like to introduce none other than Stephen Espinoza.
Stephen Espinoza
Thanks Leonard. Di 2016 SHOWTIME consistently telecasted the best most competitive most important fights in the sport. More fights than any other network, more title fights than any other network, more top 10 versus top 10 fights in any other network. And together with our promoter partners we’re going to continue doing exactly that in 2017. Jack versus DeGale is the first of three number one versus number two match ups that are on the SHOWTIME schedule. And that’s just the first quarter that’s highly anticipated fight a fight that we’ve been working toward for a year. So we are pleased to be kicking off the new year with the consensus to best fighters in the division. As Lou DiBella mentioned the main event has been supported by intriguing junior lightweight title fight between champion Jose Pedraza and Mayweather Promotions highly talented prospect Gervonta Davis.
Plus on SHOWTIME EXTREME we’ve got the women’s title fight featuring Amanda Serrano who it’s no exaggeration say is in fact one of the top pound for pound fighters in the world. If you haven’t seen her fight you should definitely tune for this one. And we’ve got a battle of undefeated prospects Ievgen Khytrov and Immanuwel Aleem. So really it is a stellar card top to bottom for intriguing televised fights. A bunch of high quality off TV fights plus of course the main event a world title unification fight. Once again demonstrating SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING is the destination for the best fights in the sport. SHOWTIME is where the best fight the best, champion versus champion. All on SHOWTIME, no pay-per-views. No other network is as committed to the sports and together with Mayweather Promotions and DiBella Entertainment we are all committed to this sport and pushing this sport forward.
L. DiBella
I also want to point out that with this fight we’ve gotten a lot of help and assistance from one of the great venues in boxing. The greatest destination for boxing in the country right now. Brett Yormark and all the people at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, we thank them for their help in promoting this great event and hosting it. You’re going to see a lot of great boxing, a lot of great SHOWTIME boxing also at Barclays Center this year. And thanks to Brett — everyone at Barclays Center — tickets are available Ticketmaster.com through Barclays Center Box Office. The tickets are priced incredibly reasonably with the ringside, the IP ringside seats at $300 going down to a I think it’s a $25 low price. And there are while we’re selling really well there are plenty of good seats available.
So we urge people to begin the year with this great card and get your tickets as soon as you can. The ringside and the prime locations are moving very quickly. And without further ado it’s my pleasure to introduce a fighter that I have tremendous respect for. I was lucky enough to promote his victory against Andre Dirrell for the IBF belt in Boston in May of 2015. He’s made two more defenses of that belt over Lucian Bute and Rogelio Medina. Again he was running a 13 fight winning streak and definitely one of the two best 68 sehingga penggemar akan ingin memastikan untuk mendengarkan yang satu ini.. And this event is going to determine who the man really is. So it’s my pleasure to introduce James “Chunky” DeGale.
James DeGale
Hello everyone! The big one is here, the best champ verse the champ. This is the one that I’ve been calling for. I’ve been on the case to my advisor saying hey that’s the one I want. I think this fight determines who is the number one in the division. I think Badou Jack’s a hell of a fighter, a real good fighter and an underrated fighter. He’s shown his last three, four fights that he’s the champ and that he can compete at the highest level and that he’s a quality operator. Camps gone fantastically well, Saya merasa baik, tajam, on weight. Saya dalam kondisi yang fantastis, just go and look on my Instagram, Saya dalam kondisi yang fantastis. Been in camp for ten weeks, feeling great mentally and physically in fantastic position. What do I say? On the 14th of January you are in for a treat because it’s going to be a hell of a fight. It’s a lot on the line so enjoy it but should be a good one.
L. Ellerbe
Thank you James for those comments. Next up I’d like to introduce Mayweather Promotions own WBC Super Middleweight Champion. He’s from originally from Stockholm, Sweden but he trained in Las Vegas. He won his world title in 2015 by beating Anthony Dirrell in a very, very exciting fight. Later that year he faced and beat top challenger George Groves, the only man to beat James DeGale in the pros. So without further ado I’d like to introduce none other than Badou Jack.
Badou Jack
Hey what’s up? How’s everybody doing? We’re finally here, we’ve got another week and then it’s on. The best versus the best and I’m very excited. I’ve been training really hard I can’t wait until fight night thank you.
Q
James you’ve fought so many world champions and so many top fights but you’re a guy that’s been going on the road. What’s why is that?
J. DeGale
I don’t know why that is, but I actually like boxing away from home. It takes the pressure off you a little bit and this is living the American dream. Do you know what I’m saying? I’m coming over to America to box in these fantastic states. And getting a fantastic opportunity from my team. But this one is the big one, New York, Barclays Center. Unifying the division so you can’t beat it.
Q
You’re a unified world champion do you have a desire to actually go back home to England and have a world title defense?
J. DeGale
That’s the plan. To go home – to go back home. If everything goes to plan. I beat Badou Jack, next May I’m going home. I’m going home and I’m having a big fight at home. Everyone’s calling for the champ to come home. So yes that’s next in line if things go to plan.
Q
Badou, can you talk about DeGale’s ability and how he’s fought on the road over the last few fights? Not a normal thing for top fighters to do.
B. Dongkrak
Iya Nih, you got to give him credit for that. He comes to people’s backyard. But also I think they lost the first purse bid. He was forced to go to Boston but he’s a fighter and I have nothing but respect for him. Come Saturday night, we’re going to go to war.
J. DeGale
And let’s not forget Andre Dirrell. Let’s not forget who I beat for the world title as well. I boxed Andre Dirrell in America. Andre Dirrell is a good quality technical fighter. This belt wasn’t handed to me. I got it the hard way. All of my career I’ve learned the way. Traveled away from home, won world titles.
Q
Are you at all a little bit disappointed that the fight didn’t get done before next week? Or are you okay with the fact that you guys are both on equal footing in coming off of the nine-month layoff?
J. DeGale
Iya Nih, if I’m being honest the only reason why this fight hasn’t happened quicker is because Badou Jack didn’t want it. After the Bute fight he probably didn’t want it. And then after the Medina fight because I boxed rubbish because Medina went full rounds on me. Badou Jack has got lot of confidence, Leonard’s got a lot of confidence. Mayweather’s got a lot of confidence of him seeing me go twelve rounds and it was lackluster performance against Medina. But you shouldn’t take too much away from that. That’s what I’m trying to say. Don’t take too much away from me fighting Medina and performing like that.
B. Dongkrak
That is all a lie. But I’ve been ready since right after the fight, I told you guys, we could fight in June. I told you I’ve been waiting for Floyd and Leonard to let me know when the date is. I’ve been on Leonard every day for the whole summer. Like come on it’s been six, seven months I want to fight. Anda tahu apa yang saya katakan? But whatever – whatever’s the case. If he was greedy about money, whoever’s fault it is we got the fight down right now. Dan, kamu tahu, Saya siap. I don’t care about old fights if he went 12 rounds with this guy and this guy. Me and DeGale have to fight so whatever happened in the past, it don’t matter. You know I lost…
J. DeGale
And you went life and death with Periban. Life and death I knocked him out in three rounds.
B. Dongkrak
That don’t mean nothing right now. It’s me and you baby.
Q
Badou talk to us about the abilities that you see in James DeGale and how do you actually beat him?
B. Dongkrak
He’s a good mover he’s a good fighter. Come fight night you’ll see how I’ll beat him. You’ll find out go live on Sky Sports or SHOWTIME or come live at Barclays Center, you’ll find out.
Q
Do you think James is going to be one of the trickiest opponents you’ve ever faced?
B. Dongkrak
Saya tidak tahu, we have to wait until fight night and see. Styles make fights, so you never know, anything could happen in this big circle.
Q
Who have you faced before — James — who is similar to Badou Jack who you can compare to?
J. DeGale
Listen I would say I’ve boxed a lot of people like Badou Jack. Badou Jack he’s pretty basic but he’s good at everything. But he’s a basic fighter really but he’s good at everything he does. So I’m saying, he ain’t got no special effects, nothing fancy. Everything’s just straight forward but very, very good. He does it very, very well and in the ring I can imagine it to be very hard when I stand in front of him. He’s very technical, he’s got a good jab, works the body well, got a good defense. But I’ve got everything covered. And as I say, wait ten more days now and it’s on.
Q
Do you feel that you just have to be James DeGale at his very best to beat Badou Jack?
J. DeGale
James DeGale at his very best, fully switched on, having no time off. I can’t have rounds off against Badou Jack. So I’m saying fully fit, fully concentrated, be myself and it’s hard to beat me in general, so Badou Jack ain’t going to beat me if I’m a hundred percent.
Q
What’s the biggest change in you over the last year do you think?
J. DeGale
Every year I’m growing. I’m saying mentally and physically but I’m growing up. I turned professional when I was 22 tahun. Saya m 30 years of age now. So I’ve been pro for eight years and I say I’m a man now in it. I’m a man and — iya nih — I look at things differently and I see things differently but these – the next couple years are my peak. I’ve got to get in there and got to get the big fights.
Q
And so the question for James, where would you rank this belt in terms of difficulty?
J. DeGale
I think it’s up there – I honestly think Badou Jack is a quality fighter. he doesn’t really get the credit he deserves. But as I say these last couple fights he’s proven, he beat Groves, Dirrell, he should have got the decision against Bute. But a lot of people thought he won. So he’s been spot on with his performances so I rank up there — listen here — if I beat Badou Jack — when I beat Badou Jack — I am number one in the division and people have to start taking note. So what I’m saying Olympic, Inggris, Eropa, world and unified world champ. People are going to have to start taking note but let me be ranked first and then we can talk after.
Q
Do you think this is the fight that can catapult you into the big time in terms of like the British consciousness and that?
J. DeGale
Iya Nih, you’d think so, you’d think so. Say it’s a big fight, it’s a big arena in New York. This is what boxing at its best is about. And this is when you see the very best in me as well. I’m a big fighter I love the big arenas, the big lights, and the big fights. So it should be good next Saturday.
You mentioned obviously that you took “Gemuk” Medina lightly. I take you won’t be underestimating Badou?
J. DeGale
I’ve taken this seriously. I’ve took this, seperti, literally like the training I’ve been doing. Like just stupid little things from like making weight, seperti, because I make super middleweights so easy. Sometimes I lift it — like the last ten days — where I was, a couple pounds over yesterday. I’m flying, Saya dalam kondisi yang fantastis, I’ve gotten a strength and conditioning coach for the past six months after my last fight. Because something was missing after my last fight. Because I was fatiguing at the end. I was feeling fit but I was just feeling a bit weak. And it was because I wasn’t doing strength and conditioning. So you all are going to see a big difference from my power, to my strength, to everything. And physically and so look at me – you’re going to see me at the weigh in and go wow he looks good.
Q
Just a quick one for Badou. Same question I asked James earlier where would you rank this belt in terms of difficulty?
B. Dongkrak
Like I say in the squared circle anything could happen so you don’t know. On paper absolutely this is probably my biggest fight. He’s an Olympic gold medalist, the world champion, the proven fighter. That’s why it’s the best versus the best. The unification play, two champions fighting each other so absolutely.
Q
Do you take any confidence form your victory over Groves and that he — James — suffered his only professional defeat to George Groves?
B. Dongkrak
No like it’s not gonna stop me in fights, I think that was like five, six years ago since they fought. So you can’t really compare it and that was a close fight. I haven’t really seen a fight like that but a lot of people have said that it could’ve gone either way. James could have won the fight so no, tidak juga, it’s me and him right now. So whatever happened it don’t matter.
Q
Can you both address just the different things that can happen in this fight because all those results against common opponents that you had?
B. Dongkrak
All right first of all we got four different opponents. So I beat Groves, “Gemuk” Medina, Periban and Bute. My fight with Bute wasn’t a draw, plus he was on steroids when we fought. So I mean Bute said it himself that my fight with him was one I won clearly. But that don’t matter really so George Groves that was a long time ago when James fought him. I fought him two years ago. Medina, I knocked him out but you can say Medina probably was in better shape when he fought DeGale. Because he probably had a longer time to prepare because it was a title fight. Periban maybe — iya nih — he was in better shape for my fight. That was also a controversial draw. That’s why it’s an interesting fight. We’ve got a lot of common opponents. But come fight night it’ll be a brand-new fight.
J. DeGale
Right so let’s go through mine, listen the Bute fight – when I boxed Bute — iya nih — I absolutely battered him for six rounds. Battered him – well I battered him for the whole fight yes. And then Badou Jack boxed Lucian Bute and it came out he was on drugs. Do you really think Lucian Bute wasn’t on performing enhancing drugs when he boxed me? Of course he was, don’t be stupid. Did you see the way he finished the fight? Did you see how strong he was? Had a lot — mendengarkan — any fighter fatigues in a 12 pertarungan putaran. Did you see how strong he finished it? Constantly on me – well Badou Jack knows but I absolutely battered Lucian Bute right? Who else is there – there’s Periban, he had life and death with Periban. I knocked him out in three rounds. Baik, he could say he wasn’t in good shape.
Ini tidak penting, I still hit him, I still dropped and he got knocked out and he had life and death. George Groves I was a nine fight novice. I was a nine fight novice, I was immature, I was young, I wasn’t experience, I was terrible, it was all wrong. And I was still a close draw I should have won that. Badou Jack boxed well in that fight and once again that was a close fight with him like literally very close because it went either way, but he won. And who’s the other one? Who’s the other one? Oh and Medina – oh man that guy, seperti, literally before I went in I was like this guy shouldn’t even last four rounds with me. But I nearly come unstuck because he was fit and he pushed me. Dia kuat, he was big, so yes, styles make fights. As Badou Jack says next week when we get in there it’s me and him. The best fighting the best, whoever comes out is the champ that’s it. Put them up.
Q
Lou can you address that? I mean does that add intrigue to the fight that they had so many different results against the same opponents?
L. DiBella
I don’t want to be like I don’t think it matters much to be honest with you. I think that right now, I think you’ve got two guys at the top of their game. Who are at the top of their division. I think they are focused solely on each other, styles makes fights, throw in some PEDs and throw in some other extenuating circumstances. Throw in guys that may be out of shape in one fight and particularly ready for another. I think it’s something that can lead to discussion and make for an article but I think, when we get to January 14th and you get to that main event it’s just these two men in the ring staring each other in the eyes. And who’s the better man? It’s mano, a mano and you throw it all down and put it all on the line. So honestly I really personally don’t think it matter all that much.
Intrigue is never a bad thing. And debate is a good thing and I’ll tell you, it’s probably a contributing factor because right now when you talk to people about this fight and it’s really one of the signs of making the best versus the best is that there’s a real clear split in opinion among experts and opinion among fans. And social media, pundits in social media commentary, people are really split almost right down the middle of this one on who’s going to win this fight. And I think there’s a lot of reasons for that and this is just the contributing factor.
Q
How has becoming a father changed your resolve?
B. Dongkrak
I’ve got to provide for my daughter now so it’s not just about me and my family, istriku. It’s about her, everything I do is for her so yes, extra motivation, untuk ya.
Q
So what in this fight do you see are your advantages over Badou Jack?
J. DeGale
Oh there’s loads but I’m going to tell you one that stands out is just speed, gerakan. I’m not going to have to say I’m not going to tell you what I’m going to do because he’s going to be very shocked what I’m going to do. But speed, I’m so much faster in movement. I move my feet so much better, there’s two things there. That it’s just going to confuse him. I’m going to make things a whole lot harder for him. See I’m not Lucian Bute, who else has he boxed? I’m not Dirrell, I watched the Dirrell fight. Dirrell blew up after six rounds he was spent.
Q
Badou what do you think your advantages are in this fight?
B. Dongkrak
I’m the smarter fighter — periode. I believe I’m the more fundamentally sound fighter. I believe I’m the more technical fighter, I take nothing away from DeGale who is a good fighter as well but I believe in my skills, Aku percaya pada diriku. I believe I’m the smarter fighter, it’s not just about throwing millions of combinations or looking flashy and stuff like that. It’s about winning rounds, it’s about being smart. That’s what it should mean.
Q
Lou, I’m assuming that at least for this fight this New York insurance situation has been taken care of. Can you comment on that?
L. DiBella
Iya Nih, we have insurance for this fight. The insurance issue in New York has not been resolved there needs to be a real investigation into what’s going on here and we need to confront the fact that they there’s still no way of doing smaller shows. ShoBox level shows or Broadway Boxing, those kind of shows that other promoters in New York do a regular basis. The local grassroots boxing can’t be done under the insurance requirements that exist. But for a fight of the magnitude of this card we were able to get insurance for the show. And the major, major fights can go on in New York right now. But obviously where there once were scores, literally in the neighborhood of 100 fights in New York in a year.
You are probably now unless things changed looking at somewhere between eight and 10 in total. At all venues. So the issue is still a real one, it hasn’t been cleared up but we are fine for this great card on January 14th. And as you’ll still see big time boxing in New York the problem is going to be with the type of boxing that develops fighters that gives them regular fights. A lot of boxing series that myself and other promoters are doing in New York are still at a standstill.
Q
James you mentioned that you’ll be looking to come back to the UK in perhaps May. Is there a plan in place already for if you do prevail?
J. DeGale
Listen mate I’m just fully focused on Badou Jack — fully focused — I don’t want to worry about anything else. I’m saying everything goes to plan, I come through this, I will come back and box in London. Pertarungan berikutnya — 100% but I ain’t spoke about it really, I ain’t spoke about it but I know my next fight will be in London after this fight if I come through.
Q
Do you think in a way though you’ve enhanced your reputation back in the UK by fighting abroad and taking these challenging fights?
J. DeGale
Well definitely I’ve become a bit more exclusive because I ain’t been at home. People can’t wait for me to come back home and obviously win my belts. What I’ve done over here in America in the past year and a half has been really good. I feel proud of myself but I’m looking forward to coming home and boxing in front of my own people man because the atmosphere’s second to none. You’ve got the best fans in the world and it’s time for me to come back home.
(Ryan Elliot): Okay thank you James. Good luck to both of you on fight night.
James DeGale: Iya Nih.
Operator: Our last question is going to come from Dan Rafael from ESPN. Please go ahead.
I’m wondering from both of you guys have you thought about the future beyond the fight as far as whether you want to move up in weight to look for a new challenge or do like what some other top champions have done and stay and keep unifying?
J. DeGale
Iya Nih, Dan I’m pretty easy man, I want the biggest fights, the biggest risks, the biggest money. All the titles that’s what I want so I come through this — everything goes to plan — Saya bersedia melawan siapa pun. Andre Ward – as I said before I do my weight pretty comfortably like super middleweight’s the perfect weight for me. But listen I want to be challenged. I want to be in the fights -where I’m the underdog for once. That’s what I want to be and yes with me and Jack I think I’m a big favorite. And I don’t really like that if I’m going to be honest because this is a genuine 50/50 on paper it is anyway. But yes, seperti, I’m willing to fight anyone after this fight.
B. Dongkrak
I kind of agree with him whatever the money is, whatever the big plaques are. I’m a pretty big guy for my weight class so yes we’ll see what the future holds. But right now I’m focusing on him but, the future is definitely at 175.
Q
Lou DiBella, just to clarify from your earlier statement. Do you have a policy that’s actually in place for Saturday’s fight next week?
L. DiBella
We have insurance for Saturday.
Q
What is it costing?
L. DiBella
It’s certainly more of an expense than we anticipated and it’s not what we would like in a perfect world. But we have insurance for Saturday there’s no issue.
Q
I believe the UFC cost somewhere around, I forget the exact number, of a thousand dollars per fighter. What’s the costing for boxing then per fighter on the card?
L. DiBella
It’s more than – it’s more than that. I don’t want to give its exact numbers at the moment, I can have more detailed conversation when I have the stuff in front of me. But it’s more than that.
L. Ellerbe
Well everyone’s heard from both of the main event fighters. I know I’m very excited, Lou DiBella’s very excited. The fighters are very excited, Floyd’s very excited. We’re going to have one hell of an event come next Saturday night and we’d like to thank everyone for joining us on the call today. And we look forward to putting on a great event next week. Thank you everyone who joined the call.

“I’m going to have a good jab, use my range and be smart in there. I think my skillset can take away any advantage he thinks he has. Timing kills speed.
“His awkward style can make him tough to fight. He’s not by the book. He’s not very technical but he’s an excellent fighter. I don’t want any excuses from him when I beat him.
“We have a good game plan and I have a good team behind me. I won’t get frustrated in there. I believe in my team and I believe in myself. I’m not worried about anything.
“I’m going to win the fight. That’s the main thing. We’ll see how I get it done. If it’s a knockout, it’s a knockout. If I have to win a close decision, tidak masalah. I’m going to win no matter what.”
THOMAS DULORME
“I feel very excited to fight under the support of Mayweather Promotions for the first time. I’m happy with the decision I made and where my career is going.
“New York is my city and it’s my favorite place to fight. There are a lot of Puerto Ricans and I can’t wait to perform in front of them.
“I feel very strong physically. I had a great training camp and have worked hard every day and listened to my coaches. I can’t wait to get in the ring and break my opponent down.
“This is a very good show with a lot of exciting fights. All the fans should come out because it’s going to be a great night from start to finish.”
LEONARD Ellerbe, CEO Mayweather Promotions
“A lot of things have contributed to Badou becoming the fighter who he is today. I think that he’s improved as a champion. A lot of the times people don’t understand what fighters have to go through early in their careers. Badou has overcome a lot of adversity, including evolving from his loss. There are very few fighters who become better fighters after they become champions. Badou is living the American Dream and Floyd and myself are very proud of him.
“I predict that Badou is going to deliver a knockout. I envision him taking a handful of rounds to figure out DeGale’s style, while still being aggressive. In the later rounds, I think that he’s unstoppable.
“James DeGale is a tremendous fighter. I’ve followed his career for quite some time. He’s a very flashy and creative fighter. He kind of makes it up as he goes. His style is unique, but there are some things that Badou and his team have put into place to disrupt DeGale. Badou Jack has seen every style out there. He’s mentally and physically prepared to take care of his opponent.
“The advice I’ve given Badou is to stay focused and stay in the moment. Don’t worry about anything other than what is in front of you. You can’t look forward to the next fight or let anything throw you off. He’s put in the work. Yang paling penting, his mental state is right where it needs to be.
“Mayweather Promotions is ready to invade Brooklyn. We were able to work everything out and bring the first fight of the New Year to the city. We’re very excited to go and help Badou and the rest of our fighters put on a great show.”

BROOKLYN (Bulan Juni 26, 2016) – Perebutan hadiah kembali ke CBS pada hari Sabtu dengan kandidat Fight of the Year sebagai juara dunia kelas welter yang tak terkalahkan Keith Thurman mengalahkan mantan juara dunia Shawn Porter dalam keputusan yang dekat namun bulat 115-113 oleh ketiga juri di tepi ring.

 

Itu 12,718 penggemar yang hadir di Barclays Center di Brooklyn dan pemirsa di seluruh AS. menonton acara tinju primetime pertama di CBS sejak Muhammad Ali-Leon Spinks masuk 1978 disuguhi slugfest antara dua bintang paling cemerlang di divisi glamor tinju.

 

Thurman (27-0, 22 Biaya) dan Porter (26-2-1, 16 Biaya) dikombinasikan untuk melempar 1200 pukulan di SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING di acara CBS, dipersembahkan oleh Juara Tinju Premier. Pertikaian tenda adalah kisah akurasi vs. aktivitas, saat Thurman mendarat 50 persen tembakan kekuasaannya, dibandingkan dengan 38 persen untuk Porter, dan 44 persen dari total pukulannya dibandingkan dengan adil 36 persen untuk penantang. Sedangkan Thurman mendarat dengan persentase lebih tinggi, Porter adalah petarung yang lebih sibuk, melemparkan 100 lebih banyak pukulan 12 putaran.

 

“Satu Kali” dan “Waktu Pertunjukan” dikirimkan seperti yang diiklankan, dengan penembak jitu yang kuat menekuk Porter beberapa kali, sementara Porter yang mengerumuni dan mencekik itu berlari ke depan untuk menggertak Thurman hingga ke tali. Dan sejauh ini tidak ada knockdown, blockbuster bolak-balik tidak pernah kekurangan aksi dan mencapai puncaknya dengan tepuk tangan meriah di acara tinju yang paling banyak dihadiri kedua dalam sejarah Barclays Center.

 

“Saya ingin berterima kasih kepada Shawn Porter atas pertarungan yang luar biasa. Dia seorang pejuang yang hebat,kata Thurman. “Pertahanan adalah kunci kemenangan. Dia banyak menahan pukulannya dan menyulitkan juri untuk mencetak gol. Saya mampu mengguncangnya dengan jelas, pukulan yang efektif dan saya yakin itulah perbedaannya hari ini.

 

“Saya akan memberinya pertandingan ulang. Itu adalah pertarungan yang hebat. Dia adalah lawan yang hebat. Semua orang mengatakan apakah dia akan menjadi lawan terberat saya hingga saat ini. Saya tidak bisa menjatuhkannya tetapi saya berhasil mengikatnya beberapa kali.”

Mantan juara dunia Porter, seorang yang selalu diunggulkan tetapi pria yang sempurna, tidak mengeluh karena kalah dalam keputusan kedua yang diambilnya dalam perebutan gelar.

 

“Kami bekerja keras, Keith adalah seorang juara yang hebat,kata Porter. “Ayahku menyuruhmu untuk tetap tegak. Saya pikir saya memenangkan pertarungan, tapi saya puas karena pesaingnya keluar malam ini.

 

“Kami membutuhkan pertandingan ulang itu. Saya tahu para penggemar menginginkan pertandingan ulang itu. Jika dia memberiku kesempatan lagi, Saya akan bekerja keras di atas ring dan pulang dengan gelarnya.”

 

Pertarungan pembukaan siaran CBS menampilkan pertarungan kelas welter super yang tak terkalahkan sebagai Jarrett Hurd lulus dari prospek menjadi pesaing sah di kelas bertumpuk 154 pon dengan mendominasi 10th menyelesaikan TKO Oscar Molina.

 

Hurd (18-0, 12 Biaya) harus bekerja lebih awal, menjatuhkan Molina untuk pertama kalinya dalam karirnya di ronde pembuka dengan pukulan counter kanan yang kuat. Hurd yang lebih besar dan tinggi adalah petarung yang lebih aktif sejak awal, membongkar atlet Olimpiade Meksiko yang sebelumnya tidak terkalahkan dengan permainan dalam yang sangat efektif. Hurd hampir melempar 750 meninju 10 putaran, dibandingkan dengan hanya 376 untuk Molina, menghubungkan pada 220 tembakan kekuatan hampir 40 klip persen.

 

Hurd memberi cap pada penampilannya di babak final, menutup pertunjukan dengan mendaratkan Molina 33-7 di babak final. Dengan Molina menerima pukulan brutal dan tampak tidak berdaya di menit-menit akhir babak final, Ricky Gonzalez turun tangan untuk menghentikan kontes di 2:02.

 

“Ini jelas merupakan kemenangan besar bagi karier saya,"Kata Hurd. “Dia mengambil banyak tembakan, tapi dia tahu cara bertahan hidup. Sebuah pukulan besar yang menjatuhkannya pada ronde pertama. Orang-orang mengetahui dari pertarungan terakhir saya bahwa saya mempunyai pukulan uppercut kanan yang hebat. Dia terluka beberapa kali. Saya tidak berpikir itu adalah penghentian yang buruk. Molina adalah pria yang sangat tangguh yang terus berusaha maju.

 

“Pertarungan ini menempatkan saya bersama para penantang teratas dalam divisinya. Saya merasa seperti saya bisa menjalani tiga atau empat putaran lagi. Saya menjadi lebih kuat seiring berjalannya pertarungan. Kami akan segera kembali ke gym sehingga kami bisa masuk ke sana lagi.”

 

Molina (13-1-1, 10 Biaya) memprotes, namun kecuali ia mencetak KO yang menakjubkan, ia hanya tinggal beberapa detik lagi untuk menderita kekalahan pertama dalam kariernya melalui keputusan mutlak.

 

“Saya merasa Hurd melontarkan banyak pukulan pada ronde kesepuluh, namun pukulan itu tidak terlalu melukai saya,kata Molina. “Dia tetap sibuk tetapi dia tidak pernah benar-benar menyakiti saya.

 

“Saya bergerak rendah dan kepala saya tertunduk dan dia menangkap saya dengan pukulan uppercut itu pada ronde pertama. Ia menyerang saya dengan sebuah pukulan yang tidak saya duga, namun itu benar-benar sebuah pukulan knockdown yang cepat. Saya tidak terluka.

 

“Saya seharusnya menggunakan gerak kaki saya lebih banyak, namun akhirnya saya menghambat pukulan saya. Dia memiliki pertahanan yang canggung dengan banyak membungkuk dan saya tidak bisa mengikuti ritmenya.

 

“Ini adalah kesempatan besar bagi saya dan saya merasa telah berjuang dengan baik. Saya akan kembali dengan lebih kuat. Kami akan mengerjakan banyak hal dan kembali ke sana.”

 

TINJU KEJUARAAN WAKTU TAMPIL di CBS, dipersembahkan oleh Juara Tinju Premier, dipromosikan oleh DiBella Entertainment.

 

Tadi malam di SHOWTIME, sensasi kelas berat tak terkalahkan Anthony Joshua berhasil mempertahankan Kejuaraan Dunia Kelas Berat IBF untuk pertama kalinya dengan KO ronde ketujuh dari petinju Amerika yang sebelumnya tak terkalahkan Dominic Breazeale di The O2 di London. VIDEO: http://s.sho.com/28VGgsa

 

Di bawah ini adalah kutipan dari Joshua setelahnya Sabtu menang di SHOWTIME BOXING INTERNATIONAL:

 

Banyak yang mengira Dominic Breazeale tidak akan mampu melawan kekuatan dan kecepatan Anda, tetapi apakah Anda bersyukur atas kesempatan untuk meningkatkan keterampilan tinju Anda?

"Dengan baik, ini sulit karena Anda dapat melihat mereka terluka di setiap pukulan – baik, tidak setiap tembakan – tetapi ketika Anda mulai menangkapnya, siram, mereka dapat merasakan tembakan dengan mengenakan sarung tangan sepuluh ons ini. Jadi, ini hanya masalah waktu, tetapi dalam prosesnya saya tidak ingin menerima pembuat masalah dalam perjalanan pulang.

 

“Sungguh sulit, saya mendapat libur dua minggu setelah pertarungan terakhir saya, dan langsung kembali ke gym jadi itu sulit. Saya mendapat sedikit istirahat sejenak dan kemudian saya dapat kembali dengan baterai yang telah diisi ulang.”

 

Kita tahu Deontay Wilder menyaksikan pertarungan itu. Apakah kamu punya pesan untuknya?, Juara WBC?

“Orang inspiratif yang luar biasa. Dia sabar, 30-perkelahian yang aneh [dan] mendapatkan WBC [sabuk]. Saya mengikutinya. Saya sedang menuju Amerika. dengan SHOWTIME mendukung saya juga. Jadi, dia menyaksikan itu.

 

“Dia dapat mengambil apa pun yang dia ingin ambil dari itu, tapi itu sangat berbeda ketika Anda berada di atas ring bersama-sama. Jadi suatu hari nanti kita akan bisa merasakan apa yang dialami satu sama lain.”

 

Siapa yang ingin Anda lawan selanjutnya?

“Saya pikir itu harus seperti itu [Joseph] Parker. Saya benar-benar memperhatikan Fury… Saya harap dia segera membaik. Sayangnya pergelangan kakinya terluka, yang telah menundanya karena saya berharap bisa mendapatkannya di musim dingin jika semuanya berjalan baik 9 Juli seperti yang terjadimalam ini, tapi kita harus menjadwal ulang itu dan sementara itu, kita bisa melihat lawan lain seperti Parker, jika dia kosong, atau siapa pun yang diinginkan orang.”

 

Menurut Anda apa yang masih perlu Anda kerjakan?

"Istirahat. Saya perlu istirahat. saya lelah, Saya bekerja keras dan seperti yang saya katakan, sekarang aku bisa mendapatkannya

Dia adalah orang yang bijaksana dan dia tahu apa yang dia bicarakan.

“Inilah pertarungan yang saya inginkan. Saya ingin menjalani latihan yang menyenangkan untuk pertarungan seperti ini. Keith telah mewujudkannya. Dia sangat baik sehingga mendorong saya untuk menjadi lebih baik.
“Ini bukan pertama kalinya dan bukan kali terakhir dua orang sahabat bertengkar. Aku sudah selesai membicarakan tentang kita sebagai teman karena sudah waktunya bagi kita untuk mulai saling memukul. Rencana saya adalah memiliki pertahanan yang hebat, menghindari pukulan dan memenangkan pertarungan.
“Saya tidak mengambil banyak waktu istirahat setelah penundaan itu. Kami mencoba berlatih dan tetap siap melewati pembatalan. Anda tidak pernah tahu kapan telepon akan berdering. Kami hanya ingin tetap bugar, menjadi lebih baik dan bersiap untuk apa pun.
“Saya merasa jika Floyd Mayweather kembali, dia harus melawan pemenang pertarungan ini. Saya percaya itu adalah saya.
“Saya tidak akan masuk ke sana untuk mencari KO dan melemparkan tangan saya dengan liar. Saya akan mempertahankan kecepatan yang biasanya saya ikuti. Saya seorang petinju hebat. Orang-orang menganggap saya seorang petinju, tapi aku mungkin akan mengejutkanmu.”
JARRETT HURD
“Saya bersyukur atas kesempatan ini. Ini adalah kesempatan bagus bagi saya saat ini. Dalam pertarungan terakhir saya, saya mempunyai kesempatan serupa dengan ini. Saya adalah pengisi acara televisi dan saya melakukan apa yang seharusnya saya lakukan.
“Kesuksesan dicapai ketika persiapan bertemu dengan peluang. Saya tahu hal seperti ini bisa terjadi. Itu tidak mengubah apa pun. Kami akan keluar dan melakukan apa yang kami latih.
“Anda selalu merasa berdebar-debar sebelum naik ring, tetapi itu normal. Molina sangat berpengalaman dan memiliki kecepatan tangan yang bagus tapi saya tahu apa yang bisa saya lakukan. Kami siap untuk ini.
“Saya senang berada di panggung ini. Ini bisa menjadi pertarungan terbesar tahun ini dan saya sangat diberkati untuk membukanya.
“Saya akan pergi ke sana dan menampilkan penampilan hebat lainnya. Molina, dia seorang atlet Olimpiade dan dia memiliki banyak pengalaman. Ia adalah petarung yang terampil dan kami akan melakukan apa yang harus kami lakukan untuk meraih kemenangan.
“Kami siap melakukan apa yang akan kami lakukan. Ini akan menjadi pertarungan besar pada hari Sabtu malam.”
OSCAR Molina
“Saya siap untuk ini. Saya lebih dari siap untuk ini. Pertarungan seperti inilah yang membuat saya bersemangat untuk berlatih.
“Orang yang saya lawan ini masih muda, tak terkalahkan dan prospek seperti diriku. Saya tahu dia akan siap dan ini akan menjadi pertarungan yang sulit, namun saya siap untuknya.
“Ini adalah masalah besar bagi saya. Saya sudah bersemangat untuk ikut serta dalam kartu bawah yang besar ini. Ketika mereka memberi tahu saya bahwa saya akan pindah ke CBS, saya tahu betapa besarnya peluang ini bagi saya dan karier saya.
“Hurd adalah petarung yang tinggi dan kurus. Saya melihat pertarungan terakhirnya dan saya melihat bahwa ia mampu menghadapi lawan yang berkaki datar. Keterampilan tinju dan gerak kaki saya adalah sesuatu yang belum pernah dia lihat sebelumnya. Frank Galarza dibuat khusus untuk Hurd dan saya rasa saya akan bisa memberinya penampilan yang berbeda.
“Saya seorang petinju dan saya dapat beradaptasi dengan gaya yang berbeda. Saya juga mempunyai kekuatan untuk mencetak KO besar, namun kemampuan tinju saya adalah yang paling penting.
“Bertarung di Olimpiade mengajarkan saya untuk beradaptasi dengan gaya yang berbeda. Saya memiliki gaya yang ramah penggemar dan saya bersemangat untuk menampilkannya.”
DAN BIRMINGHAM, Pelatih Thurman
“Kami siap untuk pertarungan ini. Keith berlatih keras setiap hari dan kami mengenal Shawn dan Kenny dengan baik. Saya telah membawa mereka ke sasana saya dan kedua orang ini sering melakukan ronde bersama.
“Saya pikir Keith Thurman adalah pria paling berbakat dalam tinju. Dia melakukan segalanya dengan benar. Hari Sabtu malam ini kami sedang menantikan pertarungan hebat dan saya tahu dalam hati bahwa kami akan menang.”
KEN PORTER, Ayah Porter & Pelatih
“Ini bagus untuk berada di sini. Senang rasanya berada di panggung ini bersama Shawn. Ini bukanlah sesuatu yang baru saja kami persiapkan, ini adalah sesuatu yang telah dia persiapkan sejak lahir. Saya selalu memiliki pola pikir untuk menempatkan Shawn pada posisi yang unggul dalam hidup. Dia tidak kecewa.
“Saya tahu orang-orang ini akan memberikan segalanya yang mereka miliki. Itu akan terjadi 100 persen selama itu berlangsung. Kami siap untuk mengambil kejuaraan. Ini adalah orang-orang hebat di sini di sebelah kanan, tapi pada hari Sabtu kami membawa semuanya ke meja perundingan.
“Kami datang untuk memberikan pertunjukan yang luar biasa. Nikmati dirimu sendiri pada hari Sabtu malam.”
LOU DiBella, Presiden DiBella Hiburan
“Ini semua tentangnya. Sabtu ini malam, yang terbaik adalah melawan yang terbaik. Itu ada di sini, di Brooklyn di CBS. Ini adalah pertarungan primetime pertama di CBS sejak perebutan Muhammad Ali 30 bertahun-tahun lalu.
“Ini adalah kartu yang luar biasa dari atas ke bawah. Ada kartu bawah yang luar biasa, fitur tambahan yang hebat dan acara utama yang telah lama ditunggu-tunggu oleh para penggemar tinju.
“Ini adalah kartu bawah yang penuh dengan bakat. Anda sebaiknya tiba di sana lebih awal karena ada pertarungan yang seimbang sepanjang malam.
“SHOWTIME telah menyoroti pembagian 154 pon dalam pertunjukan terbaru, jadi masuk akal jika akan ada pertarungan signifikan lainnya di divisi tersebut di CBS Hari Sabtu malam bersama Jarrett Hurd dan Oscar Molina.
“Kami tidak akan membicarakan persahabatan dan rasa hormat lagi dengan kedua orang ini, itu di masa lalu dan masa depan. Orang-orang ini tahu masa depan mereka bergantung pada mengalahkan lawannya dan pertarungan sebesar ini membuat taruhannya semakin tinggi.
“Yang terbaik ingin melawan yang terbaik dan itu dimulai Hari Sabtu malam. Pemenang pertarungan ini ingin menjadi yang terbaik di dunia. Keduanya ingin menjadi juara kelas welter yang tak terbantahkan.”
STEPHEN Espinoza, Executive Vice President & Manajer Umum, SHOWTIME Olahraga
“Bulan Juni 25 adalah siang dan malam yang sangat istimewa bagi kami di CBS. Ini dimulai dengan perebutan gelar dunia kelas berat antara Anthony Joshua dan Dominic Breazeale dan kemudian kembalinya tinju ke jam tayang utama CBS untuk pertama kalinya dalam hampir 10 tahun terakhir. 40 tahun.
“Ini adalah pertarungan yang mudah dilakukan. Shawn dan Keith, tidak ada seorang pun yang ragu-ragu sedetik pun dalam melakukan pertarungan ini. Semua pujian diberikan kepada mereka karena telah melakukan perlawanan ini. Ini adalah pertarungan yang sulit bagi keduanya di panggung besar.
“Tinju menerima kritik karena tidak melakukan pertarungan yang tepat pada waktu yang tepat. Salah satu kebiasaan buruk yang kita miliki adalah kita menghabiskan waktu memikirkan pertengkaran yang mungkin terjadi. Tapi sekarang kami memiliki pertarungan yang tepat, pada waktu yang tepat dan di tempat yang tepat. Sungguh merugikan jika tidak menyadari apa yang sedang terjadi pada hari Sabtu sangat istimewa dan sangat menarik.”
BRETT YORMARK, CEO Brooklyn Sports & Hiburan
“Ini adalah minggu yang menyenangkan di Barclays Center. Malam Ini kami menjadi tuan rumah Draf NBA, penimbangan hari esok dan acara besar kami Hari Sabtumalam. Momentumnya sedang dibangun untuk pertarungan ini dan kami sedang mengejar jumlah penonton terbesar untuk acara tinju sejak kami dibuka.
“Kami sangat bersemangat untuk menghadirkan malam pertarungan yang luar biasa di Brooklyn. Kami menyambut Keith Thurman dan Shawn Porter kembali ke Brooklyn karena mereka berdua pernah bertarung di sana sebelumnya.
“Sudah menjadi tradisi jika Anda berdua bertarung di ring kami dan kami tahu betapa populernya Anda di kalangan penggemar kami dan kami senang Anda kembali.
“Ini akan menjadi pertarungan primetime pertama di CBS sejak pertarungan pertama Muhammad Ali-Leon Spinks 1978 dan ini pastinya merupakan momen besar bagi komunitas tinju. Kami menantikan kedatangan semua orang pada hari Sabtu malam.”

KELAS WELTER TERBAIK: PEMENANG THURMAN-PORTER TERLALU DEKAT DENGAN PANGGILAN

Tinggalkan komentar

Ini Hari Sabtu, Bulan Juni 25, Langsung di Primetime di 9 p.m. DAN/6 p.m. PT CBS
Klik DISINI Untuk Video Prediksi Petarung PBC
NEW YORK (Bulan Juni 22, 2016) – Rekan mereka di divisi kelas welter – Juara dunia, mantan juara, pesaing dan prospek teratas – tidak dapat memilih pemenang pasti antara mempertahankan raja WBA seberat 147 pon Keith “Satu Kali” Thurman (26-0, 22 Biaya) dan mantan juara dunia “Showtime” Shawn Porter (26-1-1, 16 Biaya).
Mayoritas pejuang melakukan jajak pendapat – beberapa di antaranya merupakan lawan potensial yang akan menjadi pemenang – condong ke arah Thurman, tapi sebagian besar mengakui hal itu Sabtu acara utama yang ditunggu-tunggu dari SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING® di acara CBS, dipersembahkan oleh Juara Tinju Premier (9 p.m. DAN/6 p.m. PT) di Barclays Center akan menjadi pertandingan yang intens, menarik, pertarungan ketat dari awal hingga akhir yang bisa berjalan baik.
Beginilah pandangan para petinju “Thurman vs. Memakai”:
Danny Garcia (WBC kelas welter Champion): “Saya pikir ini adalah pertarungan yang hebat. Thurman memiliki kemampuan tinju dan pergerakan sementara Shawn Porter adalah agresor dan dia akan membawa panas.. Sejujurnya itu adalah a 50-50 pertarungan, tapi saya akan memberikan keunggulan kepada Keith Thurman dengan keputusan yang sangat dekat.”
Kell Brook (IBF kelas welter Champion):”Ini pertarungan yang hebat, yang saya tidak sabar untuk menontonnya. Jika Shawn bisa tetap berpegang pada tinju, saya pikir dia bisa menjadi juara dunia lagi dalam hal poin, tapi Keith bertangan besi dan dia bisa mengantar Shawn ke sana – ini benar-benar pertarungan pilih-pilih untukku.”
Errol Spence Jr. (Tak terkalahkan kelas welter Contender): “Saya pikir ini adalah pertarungan hebat antara petarung muda dengan skill bagus. Shawn banyak melakukan pukulan sedangkan Thurman adalah petinju yang juga bisa melakukan pukulan. Saya tahu Shawn akan menjadi agresif dan ini akan menjadi pertarungan yang hebat. Jika Keith bisa bertinju dan menahan Shawn Porter di luar, saya melihat Keith Thurman menang. Jika Shawn tetap di dalam dan tetap di dada Keith, Saya melihat dia menang.”
Berto lainnya (Mantan Juara Kelas Welter): “Shawn akan datang, tapi menurut saya Keith akan waspada dan juga melakukan pukulan keras saat Shawn masuk. Keith bisa menjadi sangat serba bisa di sana dan memiliki banyak keterampilan hebat, sedangkan Shawn lebih mirip banteng. Keith akan melukai atau menjatuhkan Shawn tetapi akan terus datang sepanjang malam.”
Sammy Vazquez (Tak terkalahkan kelas welter Contender): “Shawn adalah petarung tekanan dan Thurman dulunya adalah petarung tekanan tapi sekarang dia bertinju. Sangat sulit bagi saya untuk memutuskan siapa yang akan menjadi pemenang. Thurman memiliki kekuatan yang bagus. Itu semua tergantung bagaimana Shawn mampu menerima pukulan Thurman. Saya pikir Thurman karena kekuatannya tetapi Shawn akan mewujudkannya 12 putaran.”
Robert Guerrero (Mantan Juara Kelas Welter): “Ini adalah pertarungan yang ingin disaksikan para penggemar. Baik Thurman dan Porter menghadirkan gaya menarik ke atas ring. Saya pikir jika Porter dapat mempertahankan pertarungan di dalam, dia akan memiliki peluang lebih besar untuk menang. Namun Keith Thurman adalah petarung yang sangat cerdas dan kuat serta akan melakukan penyesuaian yang tepat. Saya hanya berpikir Thurman akan mengalahkan Porter. Saya memilih Thurman untuk menang melalui keputusan dalam pertarungan yang sangat sulit.”
Luis Collazo (Mantan Juara Kelas Welter): “Saya tidak yakin siapa yang menjadi favoritnya, tapi aku akan memilih Porter. Saya menyukai gayanya dan menurut saya akan menarik untuk melihat bagaimana Thurman bertahan dengan tekanan yang akan diberikan Porter.”
Devon Alexander (Mantan Juara Kelas Welter): “Ini adalah pertarungan yang sangat menarik. Kedua petarung tersebut adalah petarung tipe maju ke depan dan mereka mengayun ke arah pagar saat melempar. Saya tidak tahu siapa yang akan menjadi pemenang karena mereka memiliki gaya yang mirip. Shawn Porter memiliki kekuatan yang lumayan, tapi dari keduanya Keith memiliki kekuatan lebih besar. Kita lihat saja nanti. Ini tinju.”
