May ginawa amateur na ipinanganak sa Kazakhstan ngunit lumalaban sa labas ng Russia,Lipinets turned pro in April of 2014 with a decision victory over Franklin Varela. The 27-year-old recorded six knockouts in a row before stepping up in competition and impressing with a victory over Haskell Lydell Rhodes in March 2015 and a knockout of Levan Ghvamichava in March. He kept the momentum going in July when he stopped established contender Walter Castillo in the seventh round. He will challenge the 29-year-old Zappavigna out of New South Wales, Australia. He enters this fight the winner of his last 10 paligsahan, including his most recent triumph, a sixth-round stoppage of Ik Yang in July.
A highly regarded prospect with an exciting style, the 21-year-old Lubin burst onto the scene looking to finish opponents early as he cements his status as an elite contender. Fighting out of Orlando, he has already taken down experienced veterans including Orlando Lora, Ayi Bruce, Michael Finney and Norberto Gonzalez. He was sensational in November 2015 when he knocked out Alexis Camacho and in January he headlined his first card and dominated Jose De Jesus Macias in his first 10-round bout. He has kept the hot streak going in June by stopping veteran Daniel Sandoval in the third round and dominating veteran Ivan Montero in July.
A tall junior lightweight at more than six feet, the 21-year-old Kapitbahayan picked up seven victories in a jam-packed 2015 in which he stopped five opponents inside the distance, including an uppercut left hook combo that ended the night for Manuel Vides last December. The San Antonio-native turned pro in 2013 and is on the fast track towards a world title shot as he most recently defeated Devis Boschiero in a title eliminator in July. Now he looks to stay unbeaten in a matchup against Tapia out of Mendoza, Arhentina.

Premier Boxing Champions Presents: 12 Rounds with Junior Middleweight World Title Challenger Julian Williams

(Credit Larawan: Leo Wilson / Premier Boxing Champions)
I-click ang DITO to read on the Premier Boxing Champions website
Born and raised in the boxing-rich city of Philadelphia, Williams has proven throughout his rise up the 154-pound ranks that he can beat you with his brains as much as his brawn. How else do you explain the 26-year-old’s current streak of nine straight fights without so much as losing a single round?
More than just a skilled boxer, Williams is also a true student of the sweet science, parehong sa at sa labas ng singsing. Sa katunayan, “J Rock” has such deep respect for his sport’s history that one gets the sense he’s spent as much time researching the legends of the game as he has how to perfect a three-punch combination.
Speaking of history, Julian Williams (22-0-1, 14 Kos) will be looking to make some of his own Disyembre 10 when he challenges 154-pound champion Jermall Charlo at the Galen Center on the campus of USC in Los Angeles (Showtime, 10 p.m. AT/7 p.m. PT).
During a recent break from training for his first world title fight, Williams chatted with us about the man he believes is the greatest fighter in history, the importance of the jab, his mad culinary skills and the top item on his bucket list (hint: He’s on the verge of crossing it off).
Do you have a boxing hero?
I respect Muhammad Ali as a modern hero in history for the things he stood for-not just for what did in boxing. Akin, Ali’s boxing [accomplishments] are relative and a smaller part of his legacy compared to what stood for outside of the ring.
Muhammad Ali’s true greatness was represented by what he did for the world and the stands he took more than his fights.
Of all the boxers in history, who do you wish you could’ve fought, and how would the fight have played out?
I don’t want to give you a result, but I would say Sugar Ray Robinson, because in my opinion, he is the best fighter who ever lived. And I would want to see how I would stand up against the best fighter ever to wear a pair of gloves.
Sugar Ray Robinson had everything-great punch selection, the skills, the jab, the speed. He was a tremendous fighter. I’ve never seen anybody as good before or since.
This was during a time when guys were fighting with six-ounce horsehair gloves two or three times a month. They were doing that against the best competition. Ibig kong sabihin, he would fight Jake LaMotta and Kid Gavilan in 15-round fights. They just don’t build men like that no more. It doesn’t happen.
Sugar Ray Robinson would bring out the best in me and give me a great gauge about how good I actually am. I would never disrespect Sugar Ray Robinson by saying I would beat him. I respect the legends. I would just like to see how good I would do against those types of guys.
Finish this sentence: If not for boxing, Gusto ko maging …
probably just finishing up college, paying back student loans and being miserable. I would probably be a major in business administration.
What’s the public’s biggest misconception about boxers?
That we’re all stupid.
What’s the hardest you’ve ever been hit, and how you did you deal with it?
Alam mo kung ano ang, I’m not trying to sound cocky or anything, but I don’t remember. I’ve had some tough fights, but I don’t really recall an opponent who has really hurt me like that.
It’s never been where I was like, “Oh my God, he punches so hard,” o “He hit me so hard, I couldn’t get myself together.I’ve never experienced that. I’m not saying that it can’t happen; I’m just saying that it hasn’t happened.
Excluding yourself, who’s the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world today?
It’s close, because I don’t think anyone has taken the lead for now. I would probably say Andre Ward, but at the same time he’s had so much time off.
You’ve got guys like Sergey Kovalev out there who have been dismantling everybody, and then you’ve got guys like Guillermo Rigondeaux who is probably the best fighter in the world, but he’s never gotten the opportunity to prove it on the big stage.
Then you’ve got Floyd Mayweather Jr., who I think is the clear-cut best fighter in the world when he’s active. But he’s retired.
It’s just hard to pick one. I couldn’t pick one. I would be able to pick one at the beginning of the next year.
What kind of food is the toughest to give up while training for a fight?
I like pasta and red meat. I don’t eat too much red meat when I’m training, because it’s too hard to cut. I like steak and lamb and pasta. I just like all pasta in general.
Speaking of training, what’s your favorite exercise?
I don’t really have any. I hate them all. I just do them because I have to do them.
What about a favorite punch to throw?
It depends on who I’m fighting, but I would definitely have to say the jab, because the jab sets everything up. That’s usually my range finder, and I can usually control the fight with the jab. I pretty much use it in every fight to good effect.
Do you have a favorite boxing movie?
Raging Bull. I liked Parang bato, also. I mostly liked all of the Parang bato sine.
Who is the one artist on your playlist that would surprise fight fans?
Teddy Pendergrass. I grew up with my mother and father liking his music.
Would you rather run over a linebacker or juke him out of his shoes?
That depends on who it is. If it’s [retired Baltimore Ravens legend] Ray Lewis, I would have to juke him. Because I don’t want to be hit by him.
Finish this sentence: People would be surprised to know that
I’m an amazing cook. I can cook a lot of things-pretty much anything.
If you could change one thing in the world, what would it be?
Race relations. The world would be a better place if everybody didn’t see so much color.
What’s on your life’s bucket list?
I want to be a world champion, which I can accomplish in my next fight by beating Jermall Charlo. This is what I’ve been working so hard for my entire life.
I don’t have a bucket-list wish to go skydiving before it’s all over or go to Japan or anything. It’s simple: I’ve been working half of my life to become a world champion, and that’s the most important thing on my bucket list.

Jermall Charlo vs. Julian Williams Media Conference Call Transcript

Richard Schaefer
Maraming salamat sa inyo. And thank you to all the media to be on today’s call. Ako ay talagang nagaganyak. My first boxing conference call after almost three years out of the sport. Kaya, I’m really excited to be at it again.
And what better way to do it than with a double header like this? It’s rare enough to have a match up like Jesus Cuellar versus Abner Mares, which has fight of the year written all over it.
But to have Jermall Charlo versus Julian Williams which is another fight of the year candidateI can tell you that right now. To have two fight of the year candidates, it’s like today’s day and age almost unheard of. At kaya, it really is a very special treat.
I want to thank first and foremost the fighters for agreeing to these great up match-ups. I want to thank SHOWTIME for the commitment to the sport, to showcase fights like that. Stephen Espinoza goes out there and wants to put together competitive match-ups. And I think he is doing an absolutely terrific job.
But before we begin, I just want to make a brief comment. The sport of boxing lost a great friend yesterday, Todd Harlib, who could be seen in countless fighter’s quarters including Jermall Charlo, who is on the phone with us today.
Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends and the whole boxing community at this time. Kaya, I’m very sorry about having to report this.
This fight here which we’re discussing today is without any question one of the best fights which can be made in the sport, irrespective of weight class. It is a fight which was really demanded by fight fans and by media.
A lot of people wondered if it was ever going to happen? And here it is. Here it is, one of the most talked about fights, one of the most asked for fights to be seen live on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING on December 10th as part of this terrific double header with Cuellar and Mares.
The fight is in association with Premier Boxing Champions live from the Galen Center at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles which is a terrific new state-of-the-art arena where the basketball and volleyball teams of the university play as well. It has hosted a fight there as well before with the heavyweight title fight with Bermane Stiverne and Chris Arreola.
Kaya, if you live in and around the Los Angeles area or somewhere in Southern California, please, make sure you come out and be part of this terrific doubleheader. Tickets are available and are starting at as little as $35.00. Fantastic seats for $35.00
Upang bumili ng mga tiket, please, pumunta sa www.galentix.com.
It is a pleasure now to introduce to you our co-promoter. This fight is a co-promotion between Ringstar Sports and TGB Promotions. Tom Brown is very familiar with the arena there at the Galen Center. He was the one who put together the fight with Stiverne and Arreola back in the days. And so it’s a pleasure now to turn it over to Tom Brown to make a few comments.
Tom Brown
Mahusay, maraming salamat, Richard. I just want to say that TGB Promotions is thrilled to be partnered once again with Stephen Espinoza and the great team at SHOWTIME along with Richard Schaefer and Ringstar Sports.
I’m also happy to back on the beautiful campus of the University of Southern California at the Galen Center.
The idea of championship fight between Charlo and Julian Williams isas Richard just mentionedis a can’t miss match-up between two of the best junior middleweights in the world.
Kaya, ito, along with the main eventthe WBA Featherweight Championship fight between Cuellar and Mares makes it a can’t miss night. And like Richard said, two possible fight of the year candidate fights.
Richard and I are working out putting together an action packed under card which will be announced very soon. Kaya, we’re looking forward to a great night on December 10th at a great venue with even greater fights. Maraming salamat sa inyo.
R. Schaefer
Maraming salamat sa inyo, Tom. Now the next man I’m going to introduce is a good friend of mine. We have known each other for a long time. And we put together some of the biggest fights in the past. Bumalik sa 2013 when we were on fire.
Everybody recognized SHOWTIME as the leader in the sport of boxing. And that is because of Stephen Espinoza. Stephen is first and foremost a fan. And he likes to sit there and see great match ups. And that’s exactly what you’re getting here.
Kaya, we as fight fans. We as members from the media being promoters or whatever, we can really benefit from Stephen’s passion of putting together these amazing fights.
Kaya, it’s a pleasure for me to introduce to you nowI know his title is Executive Vice President in charge of Sports but I’m calling him the President of SHOWTIME Sports. I alwaysand I always did that. Remember?
Stephen Espinoza
Oo, you’re right. Since the first day I had this job. Salamat, Richard. We’re thrilled to be working with Richard and Ringstar and Tom Brown and TGB once again. And a special welcome Richard, who we are happy to see back in the sport. Not just because he’s my friend but because he is one of the standup guys in the sport. Very professional and a straight shooter. It’s something that this sport can use more of.
Kaya, the combination of Tom and Richard is two straight arrowsas straight as they come. And I’m thrilled to be working with both of them.
This year SHOWTIME really has continued to deliver the biggest and best fights. And I think there’s really no question that we’ve had the strongest lineup of the best and most significant match ups of any network in boxing.
2016 so far has included two fight of the year contenders, a KO of the year contender. Fight after fight of top ten opponent versus top ten.
And as we wrap 2016 and go into 2017, we are definitely looking to keep that momentum going. We recently announced seven great match ups – 14 tuktok 10 fighters taking on each otherin six world title fights.
And we could go on and on about the numbers. Three fights which are number one versus number two in the division. But among the pleasures of doing that is getting to make fights like this one.
Ever since Floyd retired, going on a little more than a year ago, there’s one question that personally I get and all of us here at SHOWTIME get consistently.
And that’s, alam mo, who’s the next star? Who’s the next super star? Who’s going to be carrying the sport going forward. And the good thing about this sport of boxing is that that gets determined in the ring. I can’t tell you.
Even if I were to pick two or there that I thought would develop that way, lookthey’ve got to perform in the ring. But it’s fights like this one. Like, Jermall Charlo versus Julian Williams, that determine who are the next stars.
We’ve got two young fighters in the peaks of their career. One world champion who’s established himself as really one of the future stars of the sport. And taking on one of the toughest contenders in any division in Williams.
We’re very proud of both of these fighters. They both been home grown here on SHOWTIME. Jermall has fought with us five times before. Julian has been on SHOWTIME seven times. Kaya, we’re proud that both of the role that SHOWTIME has played in both their careers.
Ngunit higit sa lahat, we’re proud that these guys stepped up to take this kind of fight. Jermall Charlo was seen as one of the most exciting, bata, champions in the sport. He’s defended that title successfully, built a fan base in his hometown of Houston, and really looks to really take over the division and elevate to the star echelon of the sport.
Julian Williams has been a guy that people have quietly identified as one of the rising stars for quite some time. I know he’s been patiently waitingand sometimes not so patiently waitingfor his shot. And so I know he’ll be ready.
I think it’s somewhat fitting that this fight is taking on December 10th, a week before the very legendary Philadelphia world champion Bernard Hopkins retires. Philly fighters are a long tradition. And it takes a lot of work and a special kind of individual to be called a Philly fighter. Just fighting in Philly doesn’t make you a Philly fighter. And I know Julian is poised to carry that title of Philly fighter very proudly and actively for many years to come.
Kaya, of all the fights that we’ve announced. And there’s a lot of quality fights. Away na ito – the Charlo-Williams fightis one of the ones that I’m most excited about. Two young guys at the peaks of their career really battling to determine who could be controlling this division for a long time to come.
This will help determine who are the future stars of our sport. Richard?
R. Schaefer
Maraming salamat sa inyo, Stephen, very well said. And for me, we all know they are terrific fighters. They’re both are undefeated. I’ve known themboth of themfor a long time. I’ve been involved with many of their fights.
They are terrific young men outside of the ring as well. And just as good as it gets inside of the ring. Kaya, they’re reallyboth of themthey carry the total package. And you’re right, Stephen, he has patience and sometimes not so patiently been waiting.
It is a pleasure for me now to introduce to you Julian Williams, who is trained by Stephen Edwards. He’s the number one ranked contender by the IBF in the Junior Middleweight division. And he secured his top ranking after stopping Marcello Matano in the 7th round in March.
He’s undefeated with a record of 22-0-1, 14 knockouts, Julian Williams.
Julian Williams
Hey, how’s everybody doing? First I want to send my thoughts prayers out to Todd Harlib and his whole family and loved ones. He was a great guy. He was a great cut man and even better guy. And I consider him as a friend. I think it’s a sad time right now, kaya, I just want to do that first of all.
Training’s been going really well. We’ve got a really good team and lots of good sparring. We have a really good camp so far. I think this is a really, really good fight. I think it was a fight that hardcore boxing fans needed to see.
It’s a fight that had to happen. I commend Charlo for stepping up and being a true champion. And I want to show the world what I already know. I’m extremely motivated. And I know Jermall is motivated too.
Kaya, I think you guys are going to see a real shoot-out. He’s got all the tools and skills. And I’ve got all the tools and skills. And you’re going to see who comes out on top on this night.
And I’m 100% sure it’ll be me.
R. Schaefer
. Now Jermall Charlo and his brothers, mahusay, I’ve known them since their first fight. And what a journey it has been.
Today he is the undefeated IBF Junior Middleweight World Champion. He’s training with Ronnie Shields. One of the most legendary trainers out of Houston, Teksas.
He won his title by stopping Cornelius Bundrage in the third-round last September. And has defended his belt already twice including a unanimous decision victory over formervery game world championAustin Trout in May.
And it’s a pleasure now for me to introduce to you again, somebody I’ve introduced before many times. The IBF Junior Middleweight World Champion, Jermall Charlo.
Jermall Charlo
Salamat, Richard. Like Julian said, Todd was my man. And I want to give his family and everyone that’s close to Todd my prayers and my condolences.
I hear Julian talk about he’s 100% nakahanda. And he’s 100% sure he’s going to win this fight. But I’ve heard that before. I’m ready for the stakes. I’m ready for this level. Sorry the fight took so long. It wasn’t necessarily up to me. But I think everything happens for a reason. And it’s perfect timing and I can’t wait to get in there and show the world what I’m actually made of against a guy that’s so highly confident about the things that I do.
R. Schaefer
Ayos. I agree with you. Things do happen for a reason. I’m very happy that I’m the one who has the honor to promote this fight and this entire card. I know it’s going to be toe-to-toe battles with the two of you.
And I know with Cueller and Mares as well. They say styles make fights. I think those styles of those four fighters are perfectly done. And I just can’t wait for December 10th at the Galen Center and live on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING.
We are going to open it now to the media for questions for any of the participants on the call.
Q
Jermall, I know that you had to have a procedure that you did voluntarily on your eye. Can you give me any details about that? What exactly was the issue? Was it just a matter of, katulad, you’re as blind as a bat? Or was there something else that was going on there?
J. Charlo
It wasn’t necessarily voluntarily. I pretty much had some vision problems up to my last fight in Las Vegas.
I fought the fight. I adjusted myself to be able to fight unclear. So now I got the procedure done. Oo, the fight was supposed to happen in October. And I wanted it then. But it was just for me to be able to clear the medical exam. Less stress now to go ahead and go 20/20 and I’m ready now.
Like I said everything happens for a reason. And crystal clear vision is one of the things that helps me make the fight easier.
Q
And which eye was it, maiba ako, Jermall?
J. Charlo
Both eyes.
Q
Both of them? Ayos, and now you feel like a new person?
J. Charlo
Ako ay 110%, crystal clear, Ako mabuti. Handa na akong.
Q
How much better will that make you? That you can now see clearly. I mean your fighting skills are one thing. But now you can see the target, nang walang alinlangan, much better it sounds like. I mean do you think that will make you a much better, precise fighter?
J. Charlo
It gives me a lot more confidence. Oo naman, it’s something important and I probably had to get it. I haven’t fought with crystal clear vision my whole life.
So now I’m even more motivated motivated. I’m eager to get in there to see what the new person is like.
Q
Did you think about having this earlier in your career?
J. Charlo
Oo, I always wanted it. I always wanted it. But I’m a superstitious guy. Kaya, I like to keep things, the way I always wanted. It’s just something I feel like it’s going to take me to the next level.
Q
Some people suggested maybe he would vacate the title and go up to middleweight to not fight you. When all that was happening and you were sitting there as a mandatory for himwhat was your personal feeling about what was going on?
J. Williams
I didn’t really know about the medical situation until about mid-September.
I actually thought that he would fight. And not think about the notion that he would vacate. The fact that he kept complaining about weight the previous fights. If the fight was being delayed, people are going to start saying this is how boxing is.
But I didn’t think that he wasI thought that he was putting the fight off for whatever reason. But like I said, at the time I didn’t know what the reason was.
All that is under the bridge. It doesn’t even matter anymore. The fight is December 10th. You know what I mean. He said he’s going to bring his A game. He’s got 20/20 vision. I had 20/20 vision my whole life. Now we’re even.
Kaya, there will be no excuses.
Q
When you found out that it was finally done and it was good to go. And SHOWTIME was going to announce it and the fight was on. What was your feeling? Was it relief? Was it excitement?
J. Williams
I just felt like I wanted to get to work. The whole process has made me practice my patience.
I wasn’t overly excited because I knew I would fight for the world title my next fight with someone. I was more so like let’s look at the work. I want to start training camp immediately and get myself ready to win.
Q
Was there any frustration that you guys were not in the main event? And that you’re in a co-feature. Or did you kind of understand because Abner Mares is Southern California. And that’s the reason why you guys are put in the co-feature.
J. Charlo
Richard Schaefer is a good promoter. He has a lot of experience in the game. I’m not worried about being the opening or the main event or any of that.
Oo naman, I’m tired of being in second place. I feel like Kevin Durant. But it’s not in the sense of, katulad, nothing I can do about it.
Q
And then Julian, same question for you. Is there any surprise that you guys were put in the co-feature and not the main event?
J. Williams
To be honest with you, I didn’t really even think about it. I just want to get in the ring and put some gloves on so we can get this thing going.
I think everything happens for a reason. Abner Mares is a really good fighter. He’s like a three division champion. He earned his stripes.
Kaya, nang walang alinlangan, we’ve got more work to do before we can headline the card. Kaya, I didn’t think about it and on top on of that I never thought about.
R. Schaefer
The fact is you’re absolutely right. Each one of those events could be a main event. And in any other network would be a main event. Some other networks would probably even make it a pay-per-view.
Kaya, that’s how good this card is. It could have very easily brrn Charlo-Williams is the main event if it would have been in Philly. It would have been. If it would have been in Houston, it would have been.
It’s in LA in Southern California. Kaya, that’s why we have Cuellar and Mares. This is about creating excitement. It’s about the fans and so on. All four of those guys are just terrific champions. That’s what they are. Terrific people. It doesn’t really impact one way or the other.
S. Espinoza
And I’ll add from the network perspective, one of the things that we were grateful for in working with fighters like these and promotors like Tom and Richard is, what we want to put together as far as blockbuster events, we don’t have those ego problems.
Richard is absolutely right. Not every network programs this way. But what we’re trying to dowe as a group of fighters, promoters, tagapamahala, is show off the best this sport has to offer.
Kaya, we’re really over delivering on each card. This clearly could’ve been a main event in Houston or Philly or anywhere else. But the idea was, this was going to be a slate of A++ level fights top to bottom.
And that requires the commitment of everybody. And people realizing it’s about not having ego. And just realizing that rising tide lifts all boats.
Q
Jermall, where do you think Julian Williams rates as an opponent?
J. Charlo
We’re both on the way up to the top level. He’s definitely one of my best opponents up to this date. He’s hungry as me. I’m not necessarily worried about any of the things he said about being as hungry as he is to be fighting me. I was that guy too. Being ready to fight K9 and waiting and waiting.
He’s my toughest opponent. And I’m ready for it.
Q
Tell us about taking this fight. And why it’s important to you.
J. Charlo
Every fight is a hard fight. Every fight I have to come out and give my best and be on my A-game. So it’s a good fight to me technically. This is the Roy Jones and Bernard Hopkins back in middleweight type of fight. We’re going to get down and get ready. I’m ready for it.
This part of our legacy is everything that I’ve wanted, growing up as a young fighter, young champion. Seeing these great fights being broadcast on SHOWTIME. And it’s, katulad, now is my turn. And I have to deliver everything that I’ve always wanted. And that is something I’ve been waiting for.
And it just so happens it has to be Julian Williams. And like I said we both came up the hard route. It wasn’t, katulad, as easy as I give my hand off to my challenger being one of the best in the world. And that’s kind of what I want to be classified as.
Q
Dyulian, also, you’ve been very vocal about this fight. Tell us why you’re so confident you’re going to be able to win this fight.
J. Williams
I’m confident because of what I can do.
I’m confident because I want to be the junior middleweight champion of the world. I think Jermall’s a good fighter. But he doesn’t recognize the scene before. He’s engaged, malakas, and fast. I just want to make sure we have no excuses about weight and that kind of talk.
J. Charlo
No weight problem. There’s no weight problem. Get that out of your mind. There’s no weight problem. I’ll tell you everybody knows.
Q
You had talked about Todd Harlib earlier. Can you elaborate on what he meant to you? And the confidence he brought to you as a cutman?
J. Charlo
Todd taught me a lot. He meant a lot to me also. Ronnie Shields and Todd elaborated about how long they’d been around the boxing game and seen the same things they’re seeing now.
Todd, meant a lot. Just spoke to him, katulad, a couple of days ago because he sent me a few guys to work with. I know he had went over to Russia and caught a little bug. But I didn’t think it would be nothing. I prayed for him. And hoped he got better.
It’s like I said, it just happened to be something that, I can’t control. Kaya, I just have to keep fighting. And hope that my next cut man is just as good as Todd. I’ve even been across the ring and looked at Todd working on another guy. And he came talked to me and let me know that it was just all business. And Jermall, just stay focused. Don’t worry about anybody.
I’m just putting the fight in God’s hands. And hoping that I never have to need the urgency to need Todd again.
Q
I spoke to Ronnie, he said that you told him that this fight is going to be a little more special because you’re going to possibly dedicate this fight to him. Is that going to take any form representing his name on your robe or your trunks or anything like that?
J. Charlo
Oo, I’m dedicating this fight to Todd. Actually once we map everything out. But I want to keep talking about it.
I dedicate this fight to Todd. He’s a real close friend of mine. And it’s just unfortunate for me to have to get in the locker room and not have Todd helping me out and everything like that. So of course, I feel some sadness about him not being here. But I know he’s in good hands. So that’s the main thing.
Q
Is this fight right here the first one that really will test you and perhaps take you to the next level and start to light that fuse for you?
J. Williams
Oo, talaga. Talagang. Whenever you’ve got a 50/50 lumaban, two guys 26-years-old both in the prime of their careers. It’s going to be a test for both fighters.
It’s rare we see two fighters get in the ring in this type of fight. So I think it’s definitely the first step in building my legacy.
Q
Richard, what does this fight represent in the scheme of this division which is a stacked division and these two fighters in particular?
R. Schaefer
I think you have two of the best fighters in their division fighting in this particular fight. And so this is an extremely significant fight for the division. And these are twosomebody said beforethese are two young undefeated and confident fighters who dare to be great.
At this point in their career fighting each other they dare to be great. And that is. These kinds of fights will separate one from the other. And I think the sky is the limit here for within that division and potentially other divisions.
But that’s how you build a champion into a star and then a super star. These kinds of fights, alam mo, these kinds of meaningful fights. And in order for that to happen, you need to have two fighters who are willing to challenge themselves.
And as I said, dare to be great.
Q
Jermall, what weaknesses do you see in Julian Williams that you plan to exploit on fight night?
J. Charlo
Nothing, he’s a strong guy. Whatever you all want to say about him. He’s good, old-school fighter. I’m tired of hearing questions about what he’s done or what he does.
I’m a champion for a reason. I’m staying champion. I don’t plan on moving. I don’t plan on none of that stuff that you all talked about. Ako mabuti.
Q
What do you consider your biggest advantage going into this fight?
J. Charlo
That I’m not supposed to go and be in some superstar. Tingnan. It’s a business. I’m betting and fighting for everything that boxing has to offer.
And my advantage is being focused and humble and strong-minded like I’ve always been.
Q
Para sa parehong mga mandirigma, how important is building a new chapter in your career? And maybe a new idol in boxing.
J. Williams
Naku, it’s an extremely big fight. I think whoever wins this fight is going to be considered the best junior middleweight in the world. I think whoever wins the fight will have the most significant win in the junior middleweight division.
I think since Canelo was basically says he’s not fighting in this division. Whoever wins the fight is going to be king of the division.
Kaya, I think it’s extremely, extremely important.
J. Charlo
Very big fight, very important fight for me, clinch the division. Ito ay pagpunta sa maging isang mahusay na paglaban, isa. I’m ready to just give everything I have. It’s going to be a good fight for me. And it’s going to be a good fight for Julian. We both hit it big and we both need to give the fans what they want to see. Kaya, it’s that time.
Q
Richard, how important for you was what this first event with Ringstar Sports would be? And for Stephen, how important was having these great fights for Showtime this year?
S. Espinoza
Mahusay, from the SHOWTIME perspective, our goal is to provide spectacular fights every month or more often if we can. Sometimes dues to scheduling or injuries or things, there are some gaps in our schedule.
But once we came back, we wanted to end the year strong. And really, send a message about our commitment to the sport. Kaya, with the help of the promotors, the managers, and most importantly the fighters, we’re able to put together a slate that is stronger than anything we’ve seen again in recent boxing programming schedule. It really is all without the use of pay-per-view. And it’s all top guy versus top guy.
It’s something that is very special to us. We’re very proud of. And we’re looking to continue it throughout all of 2017.
R. Schaefer
Mahusay, and for me, I think my reputation speaks for itself. I like to put together big events, significant fights, and that’s what I’ve always done.
And this right here is no exception to come back and together promote a card which consists without any question of two potential Fight of the Year candidates. Two barn burners in one night is a dream come true.
And to do that for my hometown. To do it from the University of Southern California, USC, Galen Center the newest indoor venue in Los Angeles. And the university where two of my sons go to school. It’s a very special night for me.
And it’s a very special night as well because Charlo and Williams and Mares and CuellarI have known these young men for a long time. So really it’s niceit’s like a coming home or coming back.
Since this was the last question, Nauunawaan ko, I’d like to thank you all. But I want to make one comment. Oo, they both have 20/20 vision. But let there be no question about it. The name of this card is 50/50. And you know why it’s 50/50.
Because these two fights are 50/50 fights. At kaya, may the better man win that night. Bilang isang fan, Nasasabik akong. I can’t wait for December 10th. Pakiusap, please, make it out to Galen Center. Para $35.00 you can watch two of the best fights of the year in one night at the Galen Center. Or if you can’t make it there. Then make sure you turn in on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING at 10:00 pm ET/7:00 pm PT. I’m looking forward to see you all during fight week. And thank you very much.

But the unbelievable pace, pati na rin ang isang arsenal ng overhand rights, body shot at combos mula sa nakababatang DeGale (22-1, 14 Kos) pinatunayan na ang pagkakaiba sa bilang DeGale nanaig 116-112, 117-111 (dalawang beses).

Bute (32-3, 25 Kos) didn’t look anything like the fighter that lost to Carl Froch in 2012. But while the 35-year-old stalked the switch-hitting DeGale with a relentless attack, hindi siya ay maaaring gawin sapat upang magapi ang supremely aktibong Brit, may bumato 524 power punches kumpara sa 278 para Bute.

I’ll be back in the gym to work hard and continue to fight. I think it was a very close fight. I’m happy with my performance and I’ll be back in the gym to get back in the ring one more time.

 

“The last three years were difficult for me. After I lost to Carl Froch that was a very difficult period for me. I took a break, and now I’m back. Pakiramdam ko ay mahusay, Pakiramdam ko ay malusog at ngayon ay mayroon akong isa pang pagkakataon na bumalik sa tuktok.

 

“Maybe a few rounds I waited too much and didn’t put the punches together and I let James fight me. When I pushed pressure and pushed back I won the round.”

 

Sa pambungad na labanan sa showtime CHAMPIONSHIP Boxing, Nagkamit Eleider Alvarez ang karapatan upang harapin WBC Banayad na matimbang kampeon Adonis Stevenson sa isang malapit na desisyon karamihan sa paglipas ng Isaac Chilemba, Nakapuntos 114-114, 118-110, 115-113.

 

Alvarez, niraranggo No. 2 sa pamamagitan ng WBC sa 175 pounds, nagsimula sa mabilis at pocketed round laban sa No. 1 ranked contender Chilemba. But Chilemba weathered the storm and fought his way back in the fight as Alvarez couldn’t keep up the pace he established in the earlier rounds.

"Alam ko ako ay upang matapos ang ibang pagkakataon round malakas, ngunit sa tingin ko ako ay sapat na upang manalo sa paglaban,” Alvarez said. “I’m ready to accept the challenge and face Stevenson. Upang maging ang mga mundo kampeon, mayroon kang upang talunin ang kampeon. Kaya na kung ano ang pakay kong gawin. "

 

Mark Nagtalo na ALVAREZ, na lumalaban sa labas ng kalapit na Montreal, ay ang benepisyaryo ng isang "desisyon hometown,"Kahit na ang hukom na pinasiyahan sa paglaban ng patas ay isang lokal at ang iba pang dalawang ay mula sa neutral teritoryo.

 

"Akala ko ako ay sapat na upang manalo ito,” Chilemba said. “But it is what it is. Hulaan ko maaari kang tumawag ito ng isang desisyon hometown. "

 

Pagkatapos ng away, Host showtime Sports Brian Custer naupo sa Stevenson upang makakuha ng kanyang mga saloobin sa Alvarez-Chilemba at ang kanyang hinaharap.

 

"Iyon ay isang pisikal na malapit na labanan,” Stevenson said. "Siya (Alvarez) won ito paglaban ngunit ito ay masyadong malapit. "

 

"Makipag-usap namin tungkol Kovalev dahil ang WBC nagra-rank pa rin sa kanya ang Walang. 1 kalaban. Gusto ko ng away na ito mangyari. The fans want it to happen. I said June is perfect for me. He said ‘OK, Hunyo,'Sinabi Kathy Duva' Walang problema, June.’ Then she said on HBO. Aniko, 'Nakalimutan ang tungkol sa TV, let them talk.’ We want the fight to happen. Let the TVs work together and make it happen.

Adrian Granados nakatapos ng isang first-round knockdown sa shock undefeated super lightweight asam Amir Imam sa pagbubukas labanan ng showtime Boxing ON sho Extreme sa isang ika-walong round TKO (2:34).

 

Ito ay isang masaklap na pagkatalo para sa Imam, na pumasok sa away ng mga Walang. 1 mandatory nagdududa sa WBC Super Magaang World kampeon Viktor Postol.

 

Imam looked like he was going to finish the fight early after a nice left-right combo floored the Chicago native. But after escaping the first, Granados dictated ang tempo ng labanan, worked the inside and prevented Imam – considered one of boxing’s most talented young contenders – from establishing his jab. With Imam unable to keep the fight at a distance, Granados picked apart the Don King-promoted fighter. After seven rounds of punishment and Iman gasping for air against the ropes Granados finished his opponent with a series of devastating combo shots.

 

Isang galak na galak Granados (15-3-2, 10 Kos), sino ang may pagkalugi sa mga mandirigma na may isang pinagsamang record ng 49-0, nakiusap ang kanyang kaso upang maging ang mandatory challenger.

"Ito pakiramdam ng mahusay. Kapag ako ay sa kanya wobbled Ako ay tulad ng, 'Nakuha mo upang makakuha ng kanya ngayon. This time you’re not taking it from me.’ It was a flash knockdown. Siya ay nahuli ng kanang kamay, ngunit ako ay tama. Ko lamang pop karapatan up at alam ko siya ay pagpunta sa subukan at tapusin sa akin. Lumabas kami ng mga ito at nagpunta sa kanan bumalik sa trabaho. "

 

Sa kabila ng demoralizing pagkawala, Mayroon akong (18-1, 15 Kos) ay hindi panghinayangan pagkuha ng isang labanan na ay malamang na kumatok siya sa labas ng title pagtatalo.

 

"Alam ko maaaring sabihin ang mga tao na hindi ko dapat may kinuha ito away, ngunit kailangan ko ito labanan sa pagitan ng bilang tune-up para sa aking mga susunod na laban dahil hindi ko nais na maghintay para sa mga anim hanggang walong buwan para sa mga shot mundo pamagat.

 

"Ang susi sa paglaban ay ang aking jab, Lamang ay hindi ko itong gamitin ng sapat na,” Imam said. “But that’s the way it goes and I’m going to definitely come back stronger. I wasn’t thinking anything after that first-round knockdown. I’ve done that many times and didn’t think the fight was over. I wasn’t surprised at all by the way he came out. Alam ko kung gaano siya fights. Siya ay isang mahusay na manlalaban at na ang lahat doon ay upang ito. "

JAMES DEGALE:

"Sa tingin ko na ako ang pinakamahusay super middleweight out doon sa ngayon. There are hard fights in the division. Badou Jack is a good fighter, ngunit sa palagay ko matalo ko siya at hinampas siya rin kung ako manatiling nakabukas para sa buong 12 round.

 

"Arthur Abraham ay pa rin ng isang matibay na customer at sana ay maaaring gawin Martin Murray ang negosyo. Sa tingin ko siya matalo sa kanya, kahit na ito ay mahirap na manalo sa Alemanya.

 

"Gusto kong patunayan Ako ang pinakamahusay na, Ako ay pumunta sa kahit saan na gawin ito at na ang dahilan kung bakit ako pagtatanggol aking mga pamagat sa Canada. Ang lahat ng mga mundo Champions sa Britain ay may mahusay na mga karibal sa doorstep, kaya ito ay isang tunay nakapupukaw ng oras domestically pati na rin para sa boxing sa Britain ngayon - ngunit matatag ako naniniwala ako matalo ang lahat sa dibisyong ito.

 

"Gusto ko boxing layo mula sa bahay – maybe it’s time I started being called ‘the road warrior’. I won my world title in Boston and now I am defending it in Canada against a classy opponent in Lucian Bute. I know it’s going to be a hard fight but I am ready for that. My sparring has been great, Ako ay pagpindot mahusay na beses sa track, Pakiramdam ko ay malakas sa gym at ako ay naghahanap lamang ng inaabangan ang panahon na ito.

 

"Walang mga pagbabago sa ilalim ng Jim McDonnell – lahat ng ito ay tungkol sa hirap sa trabaho, mahabang tumatakbo up Hampstead Heath, 15 ikot sparring session, limang minutong round sa gym – Ako ay palaging sa mahusay na hugis. We haven’t changed anything really. Kung ang anumang bagay, we’ve had to just adjust the mindset and train like a challenger even though I am the champion. That’s the way you have to think.

 

"Pakiramdam ko ay sariwa, matalim at handa. Paglalakbay ko sa Miyerkules and I am raring to go. I just can’t wait to get in there now. Nais kong lumabas doon ng isang magandang 10 days early to acclimate to the weather and the time. Once I am there, Pakiramdam ko ay mas higit pang nakabukas. "
