An der Pressekonferenz nahmen auch der frühere Herausforderer des Schwergewichts-Weltmeistertitels Dominic Breazeale und der vielbeachtete Anwärter Otto Wallin teil, Wer wird in der 12-Runden-Co-Feature der Sendung SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING gegeneinander antreten?, und ehemaliger Weltmeister Robert Easter Jr.. und Anwärter Ryan Martin, der sich in einem 12-Runden-Kampf im Superleichtgewicht treffen wird, um die Sendung zu eröffnen.

Die Veranstaltung wird von TGB Promotions beworben. Breazeale vs.. Wallin wird in Zusammenarbeit mit Salita Promotions gefördert.

Das sagten die Konferenzteilnehmer am Donnerstag:

Adrien Broner

"Ich hatte so viele großartige Auftritte und freue mich auf einen weiteren großartigen Auftritt am Samstagabend. Ich weiß, er kommt, zu kämpfen, Er ist ungeschlagen und hat Hunger. Jeder, der gegen einen Namen wie Adrien Broner kämpft, wird immer nach besten Kräften trainieren, also betrachte ich das nicht als einen Kampf, in dem ich einfach hineingehe und diesen Kerl zerstöre. Ich werde einfach tun, was ich tun muss, um den Sieg zu erringen - innerhalb und außerhalb des Rings gut aussehen.

"Ich habe das Gefühl, wieder Weltmeister zu werden, schon wieder, immer wieder. Bis ich wirklich mit dem Boxen fertig bin. Ja, Ich nahm mir zwei Jahre frei vom Boxen, zog sich zurück und ließ meinen Körper heilen und ruhen. Ich habe einfach das Gefühl, dass ich das Zeug dazu habe, mehr Meisterschaften in verschiedenen Gewichtsklassen zu gewinnen. Das werde ich also tun.

"Am Ende des Tages, Er ist wegen mir hier und jeder in diesem Raum ist wegen mir hier, Das ist etwas Besonderes. Samstag Nacht, Das einzige, was etwas Besonderes sein wird, ist dieses Keuchen, das ich herausgebe. Er wird es dann wissen. Santiago wurde noch nicht geschlagen. Wenn du jemanden schlägst, sie reden anders. Er wird nach Samstag nicht mehr so ​​reden.

„Ich habe viele Dinge durchgemacht, ehrlich. Eines Tages, Ich bin gerade aufgewacht und habe gesagt, "Ich bin fertig." Um sich zu ändern, Sie müssen Änderungen vornehmen, oder Sie werden ständig damit beschäftigt sein, dasselbe zu tun. Ich habe viel geschnitten, Ich habe aufgehört, viele Sachen zu machen und habe mich zusammengetan. Es war ein langer Weg bis dahin, wo ich heute bin und jetzt bin ich hier.

"Hören, wenn du einen Gürtel hast, halte einfach daran fest. Ich komme, um alles zusammenzufegen; WBA, WBO-, WBC, IBF. Ich komme, um sie alle zu holen.

„Erwarte einfach eine verdammt gute Show. Ich weiß, er kommt, zu kämpfen, Er kommt aus Puerto Rico, sie kommen, zu kämpfen. Aber ich habe nicht nur das ganze Training gemacht, um in den Ring zu gehen und nicht zu kämpfen. Also muss er das wissen, wenn er in einen Krieg kommt, Er wird auch in einem Krieg sein. Er sollte besser mit viel Ausrüstung kommen, weil ich viel Ausrüstung mit mir habe. Ich bin gerade bereit, alles auf den Punkt zu bringen. Ich weiß nicht, wie er sich fühlt, aber ich bin bereit, im Ring zu sterben. Ich bin bereit, mein Leben aufs Spiel zu setzen. Ich weiß nicht, wie weit er gehen will. Er könnte anfangen, an seine Kinder zu denken, Enkelkinder, Tanten, Nichten, Ich weiß nicht.

„Seit ich sechs Jahre alt war, Ich habe nie eine Pause vom Boxen gemacht. Das habe ich also getan. Jetzt, Ich vermisse wieder das Boxen, Ich bin wieder dabei und wir sind am Samstagabend wieder dabei.

“It’s been a hell of a training camp. Maybe one of the toughest because I had to get back in rhythm, coming back and losing all that weight and working as hard as I do. I didn’t want an easy fight so I picked a guy like Jovanie Santiago because I know he’s going to push me and bring the best out of me. That’s what I know about him. Er ist ein guter Kämpfer, an undefeated fighter, and he’s not here to lose.

“I know a lot of people don’t know these guys, but guys like Jovanie can be very dangerous because a lot of people don’t know him. I know better, he’s coming to fight, he’s a good fighter and undefeated, so I have to stay on my A-game. I’m going in to get the victory – whatever presents itself. Wenn sich das Knockout zeigt, Ich nehme es. Sie werden nicht für Überstunden bezahlt, aber ich komme definitiv, um meinen Gewinn zu erzielen.

„Das übergeordnete Ziel ist es, diesen Kampf zuerst zu überwinden. Beim Boxen, Sie können nicht an keinem Gegner vorbei schauen. Es ist mir egal, wie alles auf dem Papier aussieht. Beim Boxen, Sie sind nur einen Schlag von einem Knockout entfernt und das an beiden Enden. Also muss ich reingehen, Hol meinen Sieg, Lass zuerst meine Hände heben, und dann gehen wir zum Zeichenbrett. Der Plan für mich ist also, am Samstagabend meinen Sieg zu erringen.

„Alles passiert aus einem bestimmten Grund und ich denke, das wird ein großartiger Start. Wie ich schon sagte, Ich wollte nicht einfach raus. Ich hätte einen Pushover machen können, aber das mache ich nicht. Ich liebe Wettbewerb. Ich möchte, dass mich jemand testet, Bring das Beste aus mir heraus, und deshalb habe ich mich für Jovanie Santiago entschieden. Samstagabend wird ein großartiger Kampf. “

JOVANIE SANTIAGO

„Dies ist eine großartige Gelegenheit für mich. Samstag Nacht, Ich werde zeigen, wer ich bin. Ich werde Adrien Broner zeigen, dass ich bereit bin zu kämpfen.

„Was auch immer Broner auf den Tisch bringt, Ich werde ihn am Samstagabend schlagen. Ich bin bereit für diesen Kampf. An dieser Stelle, Broner könnte denken, dass er einen leichten Kampf hat, aber er ist im Unrecht. Ich bin hier, um zu kämpfen, Ich bin hier, um zu gewinnen. Wir sind bereit.

"Dieser Samstagabend wird ein Krieg und ein Sieg für Puerto Rico. Ich bin bereit, in der Schlange zu sterben, wie wir in Puerto Rico sagen.

„Ich weiß, dass dies der größte Kampf meiner Karriere ist. Er ist ein großer Name und ich werde versuchen, für Puerto Rico zu gewinnen. Diesen Kampf zu gewinnen wäre das Beste, was in meiner Karriere passiert ist und mein Name würde in der Boxwelt viel größer werden.

"Ich habe nichts zu verlieren. Adrien Broner hat am Samstagabend alles zu verlieren, also bringt er sein A-Game besser gegen mich. Ein Sieg für mich würde mich in einen Weltmeistertitel katapultieren.

„AB macht immer eine Show, also muss ich am Samstag bereit sein, meine eigene Show gegen AB zu zeigen. Er ist ein guter Champion, aber ich habe im Fitnessstudio sehr hart trainiert und werde es am Samstag zeigen.

"Ich denke, Adrien Broner denkt, dass ich ein einfacher Kampf für ihn bin, aber er liegt falsch. I think Broner is going to let go of his hands because he sees me as a weak opponent. He’s definitely overlooking me.

„Was auch immer Broner auf den Tisch bringt, I’m going to be ready for it. If he moves, I’m going to move with him. If he wants to brawl, I’m going to brawl. Whatever he does, I’m going to do it better than he does.”

DOMINIC Breazeale

“It’s true you’re only as good as your last fight, but at the same time I feel like this is my coming out party. It feels like my pro debut. I’ve been off for a long time and had a great training camp so I’m ready for Saturday night.

“After my last fight against (Deontay) Wilder I took a few days to digest the loss and then was back in the gym about 10 days later. I didn’t want to harp on it or let it bother me. There wasn’t really a sense of urgency, but I knew there were going to be changes and I knew they had to be done in the next couple of weeks. I focused on my eating and my training and, natürlich, the biggest change of all was my trainer change from Virgil Hunter to Abel Sanchez.

“Switching to Abel and training up in Big Bear has been huge and something I wish I would have done years ago. Abel actually has something written on the wall that says, ‘Imagine what if.’ And I imagine ‘what if’ every night. Wie ich sagte,, I wish I would have done this a year ago, but my conditioning and my confidence are at an all-time high.

“Some people might have thought I would have wanted to get back in there with a pushover, Aber ich wollte schon immer gegen die Top-Jungs kämpfen. Ich sah den Kampf von Otto Wallin und die Leistung, die er gegen Tyson Fury und dann gegen Travis Kauffman erbrachte. Als ich auf den Namen aufmerksam gemacht wurde, Ich bin überall drauf gesprungen. Ich wusste, dass die Boxwelt den Kampf gegen mich und Otto respektieren würde.

"Ich glaube nicht, dass Otto mit einem großen da drin war, stark, sportlicher Typ wie ich. Mike Tyson sagte es am besten: "Jeder hat einen Spielplan, bis Sie in den Mund geschlagen werden."

OTTO WALLIN

"Alle wollen nach meinem Kampf mit Tyson Fury fragen und vergessen, dass ich viel mehr getan habe. Aber es war eine großartige Leistung und ich verstehe, dass die meisten Leute mich noch nie kämpfen gesehen haben, Es war ein großartiger Kampf und besser als die meisten Leute dachten. Ich bin jetzt irgendwie darüber hinweg. Ich möchte vorwärts gehen. Es ist schön, vorwärts zu kommen. Es ist schön, bei SHOWTIME mit Breazeale zu kämpfen, Wer hat einen guten Namen. Also hoffentlich mit diesem Kampf, Ich habe ihn geschlagen und gehe weiter, damit die Leute sehen können, dass ich in der Lage bin, gute Jungs zu schlagen.

"Ich denke, ich bin runder als Breazeale. Auch, Sie können nicht vergessen, dass ich tatsächlich 6 "6" bin., 240, Ich bin also nicht so klein. Ich weiß, dass viele Leute mich ansehen, als wäre ich kleiner, aber ich bin nicht so klein. Mit diesem wird gesagt, Ich bin klüger, habe ein tolles Team, Wir hatten ein tolles Camp und ich bin auch wirklich gut. Ich bin schneller als Dominic, Ich habe bessere Beinarbeit, bessere Verteidigung, und bessere Verteidigung. Also muss ich das alles da reinbringen, Tu was ich kann und es wird mir gut gehen.

„Ich denke, ein Sieg wird mir hoffentlich helfen, an Fury vorbei zu kommen. Aber es wird auch meinen Namen dort oben setzen, um meinen Platz dort zu festigen. Ich denke nicht, dass dieser Kampf mir einen Titelschuss bringen wird, aber es wird ein guter Schuss auf dem Weg sein.

„Ich denke, du kannst einen guten Kampf erwarten, zwei gute Kämpfer. Dominic hat wahrscheinlich das Gefühl, dass er einen Punkt zu beweisen hat und wahrscheinlich herauskommen und aggressiv sein und versuchen wird, nach mir zu kommen. Ich bin mir sicher, dass ich ihn nicht suchen muss und ich bin bereit dafür. Die Leute können einen aufregenden Kampf und eine gute Nacht des Boxens erwarten.

„Dominic ist ein aggressiver Typ, also muss ich schlau sein. I have to be who I am and set him up and I think I will be able to do that.

“I don’t feel a lot of pressure. I just have to be myself and I have to do what I do, what I’m good at. This is a big opportunity for me so I try to be positive. I waited a long time to get to this level, I’m finally here and I’m not going back.”

ROBERT OSTERN, JR.

“I’ve been in some brawls, but I really haven’t ever shown my true boxing abilities. Me, Mike Stafford and my father (Robert Oster, Sr.) just worked on boxing and being myself.

“During COVID it really set me down and being off for all that time and never really knowing when I would get that call to get back in the ring. So I really had to focus up and I had to be ready whenever I was given that phone call. It motivated me. Mehr, I had to look over my son and make sure he was alright. So it really put a different drive in me. This pandemic really set everything back, but we’re more than ready.

“140 is definitely the place for me to be right now. That’s the future. We’re worried about present right and capturing this title at 140.

“I’m just worried about me and showing my skills and everything we’ve worked on in training and this camp.”

RYAN MARTIN

“We fought in the amateurs and he beat me so there’s definitely a little chip on my shoulder there. I want to get back at him and let him know that I’m not a 16-year-old kid anymore.

„Dieser Kampf wird mich wieder in die Lage versetzen, gegen einen der Champions oder Top-Konkurrenten der Division zu kämpfen. Dieser Kampf wird definitiv die Show stehlen.

"Ich bin konzentriert. Mein Geist ist klar. Dieser Kampf hier macht mich aufgeregt. Wir sind zwei Ohio-Kämpfer mit Geschichte - ich habe einen Chip auf meiner Schulter. Es wird ein actionreicher Kampf und ich werde ihn bringen. Ich bin nicht wirklich überrascht, dass Ostern sagt, er sehe keine großen Schwierigkeiten, gegen mich zu kämpfen. Ich habe erwartet, dass er das sagt. Ostern ist Ostern.

"Es wird sehr wichtig sein, dass ich meine Hände gegen Ostern loslasse. Ich habe das Gefühl, dass dieser Kampf so viel Action haben wird. Ich bin klar gesinnt. Ich bin bereit. Samstag Nacht, Wir werden dort einsteigen und es fliegen lassen.

"Worte können nicht erklären, wie aufgeregt und ängstlich ich dafür bin, um Ihnen die Wahrheit zu sagen. Ich bin einfach so bereit für Samstagabend. Ich bin bereit, das Wiegen hinter mich zu bringen, am Samstagabend unter die Lichter gehen und eine Show machen. Es wird ein unterhaltsamer Kampf. Viele Leute sagen eine Menge Dinge über mich, basierend auf dem Josh Taylor-Kampf. So, Es ist so, als würde ich gegen zwei Dinge kämpfen.

„Ostern muss nur am Samstagabend mitkommen. Ich wusste immer, dass dieser Kampf mit Robert Easter stattfinden würde. Ich weiß nicht warum, aber ich wusste einfach immer, dass wir uns im ring wiedersehen würden. Ich denke, das liegt daran, dass wir beide in Ohio waren - er war in Toledo und ich in Cleveland - und ich dachte nur immer, ich würde diesen Kampf bekommen. Ich hätte einfach nicht gedacht, dass es so in einer Blase passieren würde. "

Here is what the press conference participants had to say Wednesday in Las Vegas:

Manny Pacquiao

I feel so blessed and happy because of the excitement around this fight. It’s come from the fans here in the U.S. and media all over the world. I want to go out there and make all the people happy.

The knockout in my last fight felt good. It felt like my younger days against Ricky Hatton, Miguel Cotto und andere. That fight was a big challenge for me to recover from the fight against Jeff Horn. People said that my career was done. But I never got discouraged, I just worked hard and made the knockout against Lucas Matthysse happen.

These days I don’t only train my body, but also my mind. I’m a Senator, so my mind is very busy. I also play chess regularly and read books to keep my mind sharp.

People writing me off after the Jeff Horn fight was good for me. I’m not mad at anyone who thought that. It just became a challenge and a test to me of whether or not I could still show my best.

Being back here at MGM Grand makes me so happy. It’s an honor to be in this position. I remember my first fight here in the U.S. was at MGM Grand. I will never forget that moment and now I get to come back here and do it again.

I know he is going to counter me but we’re ready for that. What happened in the Juan Manuel Marquez fight will not happen again. It was a mistake and I learned that mistake. We’ve worked on that in this training camp. I am prepared for Broner’s style.

This is a challenge because it is my first fight as a 40-year-old. I have something to prove to everyone about what that means. Age is just a number. What matters is how you prepare and that you’re working hard.

I don’t need to dislike my opponent to want a knockout. I’m just doing my job in the ring. Wenn der Knockout kommt, es kommt. We’re hoping to have that opportunity Saturday. I have to pressure him to make him open up. Wherever he goes, Ich werde da sein.

I’ve always stayed disciplined throughout my years in boxing. I’m always making sure everything is in order and on point during my workouts. That plus cross-training with activities like basketball has helped me stay in this position all these years.

Adrien Broner

I’m not up here to talk a lot of trash. I’ve put in the work. Es ist Zeit zu kämpfen. Nachdem ich gewonnen habe, everything is going to be different.

People are talking a lot about Pacquiao fighting Floyd Mayweather again, but I’m pretty sure Floyd is retired. I feel like people are trying to throw me to the wolves and overlook me.

He doesn’t remind me of any past opponents just like I’m not going to remind him of anyone he’s fought. He’s never fought anyone like me. Every fighter has similarities, but truly every fighter is different. If I remind him of Floyd Mayweather, I hope his arm doesn’t hurt after this one.

Look at my last five fights. I’ve fought world champion after world champion. I don’t duck any fights. I don’t care how many weight classes he’s won titles in.

I’m not in awe of any fighter, especially Manny Pacquiao. I hope he’s in awe of me. I’m a one of a kind fighter too. I’ve made history in this sport.

I just have to go out and win this fight, then everything is going to start going my way. Samstag Nacht, Ich werde siegen. This is a defining moment in my career and it’s going to be one of the biggest nights of my life.

Pacquiao hasn’t fought me so I’m not worried about what he says about me right now. He’s going to have a different outlook after he fights me Saturday night.

I’m going to turn Las Vegas into a big block party after I win on Saturday night. It’s going to change my career.

Manny Pacquiao has done a lot for the sport. I’m going to beat him up and have a drink with him afterward. I grew up in boxing and I know what’s going on. It’s a business, but don’t get it twisted, I’m going to dominate and win.

This is going to be a hell of a fight. I’ve trained so hard and I want everyone to know that I play around a lot, but when that bell rings, Ich werde bereit sein,. I didn’t come here to lose or lay down. I came here to get this victory. Real talk.

BUBOY FERNANDEZ, Pacquiao’s Co-Trainer

I’m very thankful to this great team that we have that has prepared Manny for this challenge. I know that we worked very hard for this. I cannot fly without wings, but I can bring the belt back to the Philippines.

Manny has trained hard and we expect a good fight. This is the hardest I’ve seen him train and it will be seen in the ring Saturday night

Freddie Roach, Pacquiao’s Co-Trainer

We’ve trained really hard for this fight. Manny is looking really good and is in tremendous shape. I’m sure Adrien is also because they’re both great fighters. I wish both men luck and may the best man win.

KEVIN CUNNINGHAM, Broner’s Co-Trainer

We’ve had a tremendous training camp. Adrien is ready to go. Everyone who knows me, knows that all I have in this world in my word, and I don’t break it for nobody. I’m giving you my word that Adrien will put on a spectacular performance on Saturday night.

I’m guaranteeing that Adrien will send Manny back to the Senate, beltless, without the WBA title. I guarantee it.

MIKE STAFFORD, Broner’s Co-Trainer

Adrien came to me when he was 55 pounds and seven-years-old. He was an underdog then and he came back day after day. People thought he was a bad kid, but I told people that I saw something in him.

Freddie Roach didn’t know who Adrien was years ago when we were getting ready to work with the Olympic team together. But he got to know Adrien, and on Saturday night, Manny is going to know him too. That’s for sure.

JOE RAMOS, COO of Manny Pacquiao Promotions

We are honored, humbled and proud to be a part of this amazing event. This will be Manny’s 20th fight in Las Vegas and we’ve been treated amazingly throughout the entire promotion. I’m thankful to all of Team Pacquiao for the work they do and helping make everything run smoothly.

We all know that Adrien is ready and we expect nothing but the best from him and his team on Saturday night.

MGM Grand is known for the lion, and Lenny the Lion is right there when you enter the building. Am Samstagabend, Manny will show his heart of a lion for fans all over the world and prove once again that he’s the king of the jungle.

LEONARD ELLERBE, CEO von Mayweather Promotions

About three and a half years ago I sat here opposite this great legend in Manny Pacquiao. I’ve studied this man for many years and today he’s still one of the best welterweights in the world. He still has tremendous explosiveness and power, but more importantly the experience to beat any welterweight in the world.

Pacquiao has been doing this for so many years that we forget how truly great this man is. He’s in a very comfortable position right now. He’s super motivated and thats what is going to make this a great fight on Saturday night.

Coming into this fight we all know that there have been rumblings about what Adrien needs to do to win this fight. But what I’ve witnessed firsthand this entire promotion, is that this man has dedicated himself 100 Prozent. He’s done everything his coaches have asked of him and he’s exceeded those expectations.

Adrien Broner is ready, konzentriert, and he’s put in the work. He’s put himself in the best situation to be successful on Saturday night. I expect nothing less than a great virtuoso performance. He didn’t cut one corner this training camp. He wants to prove to everyone, that everything people have said about him can be thrown out the window. He’s coming to show the entire world what he’s all about.

Ravone LITTLE, CEO of About Billions Promotions

Adrien trained really hard for this fight. I’d like to thank Kevin Cunningham and Mike Stafford, they put together a great game plan. Adrien will be ready.

There’s been a lot of talk from Pacquiao’s side about getting a knockout, but you’re the one getting knocked out. You’ve been knocked out, we haven’t.

This our first time on this stage and in this position and it’s been very enjoyable. Adrien and I have put a lot into this over the last 10-15 Jahre. We’re pulling for our guy 100 percent.

STEPHEN ESPINOZA, Präsident Sport & Event-Programmierung, Showtime Networks Inc.

I’m not going to come up here and tell you all anything you don’t already know about Manny Pacquiao or Adrien Broner. These are two guys who have operated at the highest level of boxing for years. In Manny’s case, literally decades. But I will remind you of some things.

Manny Pacquiao is a Hall of Famer, Keine Frage. He’s a boxing legend who’s generous, humble and soft-spoken outside of the ring. But most of all, he takes tough fights. Das Letzte 20 opponents Pacquiao has had have been current, future or former world champions.

Adrien Broner has faced nine world champions in 37 Karrierekämpfe. He’s obviously demonstrated himself as being an elite fighter. He’s flashy, flamboyant, sometimes outrageous, but he’s always unapologetically himself.

On Saturday night, everything changes. Pacquiao is no longer soft-spoken and Broner is no longer fun-loving and outgoing. They transform themselves into two of the most athletically gifted and ferocious warriors in our sport. Above all these two guys have heart, which is the rarest thing in this sport.

Between the two of them, they’ve won titles in 12 Gewichtsverteilung. That’s the third most of all-time, trailing just Mayweather vs. Pacquiao and Pacquiao vs. De La Hoya.

We know this is an elite fight and these fighters are in elite company. But on Saturday night, none of that matters. It’s not a contest of who has the best resume. This is a high level contest with high stakes between two of the most talented and athletically gifted fighters in the sport today. A win in this fight catapults each of these men to bigger things. It doesn’t get any more significant than that.

RICHARD STURM, President of Entertainment and Sports for MGM Resorts International

I’d like to welcome back Manny Pacquiao and Adrien Broner, two of the sport’s best fighters, back to Las Vegas and MGM Grand. Fans are always excited to watch these two fighters compete in the ring and we’re confident that Saturday’s event will kick off another exciting year of sports and entertainment programming for MGM Resorts.

I’m thankful to all of the people who have helped make this fight happen here in Las Vegas. We look forward to seeing everyone at the MGM Grand Garden Arena Saturday night for this sensational event.

LAS VEGAS(Januar 15, 2019) – With fight week underway in Las Vegas, former four-division world championAdrien “Das Problem” Bronerhosted a media workout Monday before he battlesManny Pacquiaofor the World Boxing Association Welterweight World Title Saturday, Januar 19 in the main event of a SHOWTIME PPV®event from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.

Tickets Für das Event, which is promoted by MP Promotions, Mayweather Promotions and TGB Promotions in association with About Billions Promotions, are on sale now and start at $100, not including applicable service charges, and can be purchased online through AXS.com, charge by phone at 866-740-7711 or in person at any MGM Resorts International box office.

Broner, along with trainerKevin Cunningham, have been at Barry’s Boxing in Las Vegas finishing up training camp after spending most of camp in West Palm Beach, Florida preparing to face boxing’s only eight-division world champion in Pacquiao. Here is what they had to say Monday at Barry’s Boxing:

Adrien Broner

Every fighter is different, but I know if I touch him flush, I’ll put him out. It’s no secret, he’s been to sleep before.

I’m in shape and ready to go. We had a tremendous training camp. I could have made weight weeks ago. We’re prepared to go out and execute.

I’ve been here before, and even though I haven’t been in a fight of exactly this magnitude, I’m just treating it like any other fight. He’s another opponent.

A lot of people are saying that Pacquiao’s age will be a factor, but I’m not looking at it like that. You see guys like Floyd Mayweather who stay undefeated at an older age. I’m just focused on being me. As long as I do what I have to do, Ich werde siegen.

We’re ready for whatever this fight is going to end up being. It could definitely be a war. I’ve always been an underdog. I came from the trenches and I’m bringing that mentality into the ring.

I can take over boxing with a win over Pacquiao. There are a lot of great fighters in this sport, but they just don’t bring what I bring to the table. With a win like this, it would put me right where I was always meant to be.

I’ve always wanted to fight the big names like this and I knew that I just had to keep working hard and the time would come.

Once that bell rings, I’ll make my adjustments and go ahead and get my victory. I don’t have anything I want to go out and prove. It’s just about winning. That will say everything.

KEVIN CUNNINGHAM, Broner Trainer

Preparation has been great. Camp war enorm. Adrien is ready to go and extremely focused for this fight. He came into camp that way and it’s stayed that way.

We added some things this training camp, because we know he’s fighting a legendary fighter. This is one that he has to have and he realizes it. I expect a spectacular performance.

I think on Saturday night that Adrien is going to be that guy that everyone expected him to be from day one. It will open a lot of eyes. I believe that we put the work in. I can’t see Adrien coming out of there without a victory.

The key to victory is for Adrien to just be himself. He has to do what he does best with no hesitation. He’s going to throw the right punches at the right time.

Pacquiao still throws combinations but they don’t come in as fast or as sharp as they used to. He can throw as many punches as he wants to throw, but if they’re not landing, it doesn’t mean anything.

I think Adrien is the quicker fighter. Quickness offsets speed, all day, every day. It’s all about being quick enough to time the guy with your hand speed. It’s different than just throwing a bunch of fast punches.

 LAS VEGAS(Januar 10, 2019) – Former two-division world championBadou Jack hosted a media workout at Mayweather Boxing Club in Las Vegas Thursday as he prepares to take on unbeaten top contenderMarcus Browne for the WBA Interim Light Heavyweight Title Saturday, Januar 19 on the Pacquiao vs. Broner SHOWTIME PPV® event from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas and presented by Premier Boxing Champions.

Tickets Für das Event, which is promoted by MP Promotions, Mayweather Promotions and TGB Promotions in association with About Billions Promotions, are on sale now and start at $100, not including applicable service charges, and can be purchased online through AXS.com, charge by phone at 866-740-7711 or in person at any MGM Resorts International box office.

A resident of Las Vegas, Jack is preparing to fight in his adopted home city for the 11thtime as a pro on January 19. He will be making his third appearance on SHOWTIME PPV, having won a light heavyweight crown against Nathan Cleverly in August 2017 auf dem Mayweather vs.. McGregor Veranstaltung.

Here is what Jack, his trainer Lou Del Valle and Mayweather Promotions CEO Leonard Ellerbe had to say Thursday:

JACK BADOU

I feel young and like I’m still improving. I take care of my body every day. Age won’t be a problem for me, it’ll be an advantage.

I’m a confident fighter. I don’t need to talk and brag about everything. I’m just comfortable; innerhalb und außerhalb des Ring.

I’m battle-tested. I’ve been in there in tough fights. He hasn’t been tested like that, so we’ll have to see what he’s capable of when the pressure is on.

Marcus Browne is an athletic and skilled fighter. But it’s a little different to fight on the prospect and contender level versus on this world class level.

One of my biggest strengths in the ring is my ability to adjust. Mein Trainer, Lou Del Valle, has really helped in that regard. He’s been in there as a world champion like me on the big stage. He knows so much about boxing.

This is nothing new to me. I’ve been on a lot of big cards, so this is a regular day on the job. It’s exciting as always and I can’t wait to put on a good show.

I feel like it’s my duty to give back outside of the ring. With this platform that I have, why wouldn’t I? We should use this platform for something deeper than boxing.

On the Pacquiao vs. Broner SHOWTIME PPV main event:

It’s a really good fight. Pacquiao looked pretty good in his last fight, but Broner is very talented. Alles kann passieren im Boxen, especially because Broner has a good chin and can fight. He just has to stay focused.

LOU DEL VALLE, Jack’s Trainer

Camp has been amazing. Every camp has just been better and better. He has improved on his weaknesses each time we work together. It’s incredible that a guy who’s 35-years-old can keep performing the way he is and still be getting better.

We know that we have to be careful because Marcus is a good fighter. Everyone we fight at this level is quality. We’re only fighting champions and guys with the top pedigree. The better the fighter, the better we get.

I don’t think that Marcus Browne wants to go the distance with Badou Jack. If you notice in previous fights, guys who fight Badou are not the same after. He takes a lot out of them and I think it’s going to happen again. Marcus is going to go for the early knockout, but we’re ready.

The experience gap is a big difference. I had only fought one 10-rounder when I first fought for the title, but I still thought that I could beat him. The experience that Virgil Hill had over me was really difficult to overcome and I think you’ll see something similar play out in this fight.

LEONARD ELLERBE, CEO von Mayweather Promotions

I think that this is going to be a very competitive fight. You have two guys in this fight that are very hungry. There are a lot of options in the light heavyweight division, and it’s all about timing. This fight gives both guys a chance to prove that they want to be the best and make a great statement.

This fight has a very good chance of stealing the show. I like the fact that Marcus is very confident. If you’re in a big fight, you have to be. Badou is even-keeled, and he comes with his workman-like approach to every fight.

Experience is everything in big fights. It’s a big deal when you’re under those lights. Going the distance with top guys, and knowing how to break guys down, it all plays a big role in fights like this.

LOS ANGELES(Januar 10, 2019) – – SenatorManny “Pacman” Pacquiao, boxing’s only eight-division world champion, and former four-division world championAdrien “Das Problem” Bronerhosted media days in Los Angeles Wednesday as they near their SHOWTIME PPV®clash taking place Saturday, Januar 19 von der MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.

Pacquiao will end his two-year hiatus from a U.S. boxing ring when he returns to Las Vegas to defend his World Boxing Association Welterweight World Title against Broner. Along with co-trainerBuboy Fernandezand longtime trainerFreddie Roach, Pacquiao spoke to media and worked out for the cameras at Wild Card Boxing Club.

Broner traveled to Los Angeles from his current training camp in Las Vegas to talk to media along with his trainerKevin Cunningham at Ten Goose Boxing Gym, after spending most of training in West Palm Beach, Florida.

Here is what the media day participants had to say from the split-site media day Wednesday:

Manny Pacquiao

My journey in this sport is still continuing. I’ve accomplished everything I’ve wanted to, but I also want to continue to keep my name at the top. Even at 40-years-old, I can still show the best of Manny Pacquiao. I’m going to give the fans the speed and power that they’re used to seeing.

I’m sure that Broner is focused on this fight. They are working hard and I expect him to be in great condition. We know how his trainer pushes him and has been pushing him in their training camp.

I’m not taking this fight lightly. I don’t listen to any gossip about Adrien Broner, I just focus on my training. I want to be in 100 percent condition and ready for the fight on January 19.

Adrien Broner is fast with his hands and he’s overall a good boxer. This is a big challenge that I’m excited for.

Me, Freddie and Buboy know each other well and we have a great coaching staff right now. I’m happy with how everything has gone in training for this fight.

Rest and recovery is definitely a key part of training. Sometimes when I work hard in the gym, my body can’t fully recover by the next day, so I’ve had to work more rest into the schedule. But as soon as I can, I’m back in the gym working hard.

“Im Januar 19 I’m going to do my best. I can’t say a prediction, but I’m going to do the same thing I did for my last fight. My trainers know how hard I’ve worked in this camp for this win.

My plan is to take it one fight at a time. I can’t talk about future fights until I do what I have to on January 19. You can ask me again after this one.

This fight means a lot. It’s my first fight at the age of 40 so I’m excited to give my best and show the world what I can still do. Boxen ist meine Leidenschaft, and public service is my mission. I love to bring honor to my country.

Adrien Broner

Growing up and seeing Pacquiao fight, of course I always wanted to fight him. I’m a competitor. One day I want to be the best, and to be the best you have to beat the best. It starts here.

This is my first PPV but I was always supposed to be here. God doesn’t make mistakes. After this victory, I will be taking over the sport of boxing. This is just the beginning.

His last fight he did stop Matthysse, so I’m pretty sure he still has power. But I’m going to be ready, I’m going to be ready for whatever he brings to the table. We’re in shape to get it done, I can tell you that.

This win makes me an icon. It makes me what I always wanted to be, and what everybody always thought I would be. A win here and I’m a legend overnight.

It’s going to be a hell of a fight. I just can’t wait till round one. Everybody I fight says they are going to knock me out. That should be the objective of every fighter, aber das ist nicht geschehen.

“Der Himmel ist die Grenze für mich, but in boxing you have to take it one fight at a time. You can’t overlook anybody in this sport. My main focus is Manny Pacquiao and I will be ready.

A win would mean a lot. It turns a new page in my book. It’s another beginning. I’m already a star in boxing, but a win here and I’m taking over the sport. This is just the beginning.

It’s not a mysteryhe’s been knocked out before. Not once, not twice, but three times. And he’s been put down a lot, too. There are many blueprints to beat Manny. I think I have all the tools to beat him. I will show all the tools in my arsenal and show all the weaknesses in his.

BUBOY FERNANDEZ, Pacquiao’s Co-Trainer

I think it’s going to be a knockout. If Broner opens the door, we’re going to get it early. I’ve seen from previous fights that he’s a slow starter. So we need to get inside and go first.

We know that Broner is a good counter-puncher with a strong right uppercut. Broner is a real fighter and a smart fighter in the ring.

I’m happy that Manny has shown that he moves as well as ever, even at 40-years-old. He’s learning even more now. I told the team that I think he’s already prepared for this fight.

We just want him to maintain this shape and energy level. Manny is 110 Prozent bereit. I don’t think there’s a fighter who can keep up with what Manny brings.

Freddie Roach, Pacquiao’s Co-Trainer

“Ich kann nicht warten, für diesen Kampf. Camp has been great and he’s been training very well. Everything is back to normal and he’s looked amazing.

Manny and I have been together 15 Jahre, so I had no reason to ever be mad at Manny. Everything has worked out really well and we’re working together as a team right now.

I’m working on the game plan for how to fight Broner. He’s a counterpuncher who doesn’t like to come forward too much. Manny will have to be the aggressor in this fight and use his feints to trap this guy into making it more of a fight.

I feel we’re going to see an aggressive Manny Pacquiao. There’s a rumor that Manny has been telling people he’s looking for a knockout. I love that attitude. I think his knockout of Lucas Matthysse was so satisfying and he saw that that’s what the fans really want. I think that’s going to carry over to this fight.

Pacquiao and I have a deal. Once his work ethic drops, I’m going to tell him and he’s agreed he’ll retire. His work ethic is unbelievable right now. He hasn’t slowed down at all. He hit me with a shot in the chest two or three days ago, and I’ve never been hit harder in my life.

KEVIN CUNNINGHAM, Broner Trainer

Everything went tremendous in Florida. I’ve never seen Adrien this focused and I’ve been around him for years. He came to camp with a look on his face like this is the one he’s got to have. He prepared for nine hard weeks and we didn’t miss a beat. Everting was on point.

He’s ready. He’s focused. We had tremendous sparring. Everything went great. We didn’t have any hiccups, any injuries or setbacks. He’s ready to go and he’s going to look spectacular on January 19.

Manny fights with a high punch volume and he’s aggressive with it. But sometimes he’s reckless with it. Adrien is a sharp counter-puncher. He gets off first and last. If Adrien comes to the ring mentally sharp like I know he will, because physically he’s as sharp as ever, as long as his mind is on point, I think it’s going to be a long night for Manny and it’s the wrong fight for Manny.

There’s a lot there to exploit. I know Manny throws a lot of punches and Adrien doesn’t throw a lot, but this fight is not about matching Manny’s punch count. This fight is about throwing the right shots at the right time.

There’s a big difference in Adrien from the last camp. He didn’t take Jessie Vargas as seriously as he’s taking this legendary eight-time world champion in Manny Pacquiao. There were some things that went on that showed he wasn’t as focused as he is for a fight like this. He’s just been on point. He’s not screwing around. He’s not looking for days off to go have a good time. He’s just locked in on Manny Pacquiao.

Cincinnatis Broner, one of boxing’s most popular and colorful personalities, is training under the tutelage of Kevin Cunningham in nearby West Palm Beach, Fla.

Here is what Broner and Cunningham had to say Tuesday:

Adrien Broner

This fight is real important. This is a hell of a fight not only for me but for the sport. This is a fight that needed to happen for the sport and we are going to put on a hell of a show.

I always knew that one day I would be having fights like this. Honestly I thought he [Pacquiao] would be done with boxing by now but I always knew I would have a fight of this magnitude on this platform, pay-per-view and all and now I’m here.

I knew what to expect. I knew he [Kevin] was going to be real strict and I just came prepared.Ready to put it all in and put it all on the line.

On what he does in his down time:

I try to rest as much as possible. I’m training so much and training real hard. This will be my second workout of the day and then after this I have another workout at 8:30 p.m. so that will be the third workout for the day so you know all my off time I try to eat properly, stay hydrated and stay focused.

On how it feels to train in a gym that hosted greats like Muhammad Ali:

It’s lovely. I never knew this gym existed and this is my first time ever being here or ever hearing about this gym being legendary. Muhammad Ali paved the way for guys like me and Sugar Ray Leonard and everyone else so, it’s legendary.

I always tell other fighters and other people it takes more to be a star than just boxing. I just have everything it takes to be a mega star.

On Pacquiao’s last fight against Lucas Matthysse:

I didn’t see it but I heard he looked good. ich weiß nicht was mich erwartet. I’m just training for the best Pacquiao. And I’m going to go out there and do what I have to do to get the victory.

How do you feel training in South Florida?

I’m not focused on the clubbing and stuff and all that stuff will be here after the fight. Ich bin 110 percent focused on this fight.

What he will do after the Pacquiao Fight?

Boxing you have to take it one fight at a time. My main focus is getting past Manny Pacquiao first and then we can talk about other things.

On whether or not Pacquiao has a weakness:

It’s not a mystery. He has seven losses. It’s not a mystery that he can lose but anyone can lose on any given day. It’s whoever prepares the best and I’m preparing myself to do what I need to do. I don’t care about stopping him or whether it’s a unanimous decision, as long as I’m victorious.

On whether or not this is the biggest fight of his career:

This is definitely my biggest fight, biggest magnitude, biggest platform I’ve ever been on but you never know. I could probably go in there and make this look like the easiest fight of my career you just never know.

KEVIN CUNNINGHAM

I think he’shaving even a better camp than the last. He’s added a new strength and conditioning coach and everything is working out perfect and camp is going extremely well and smooth. AB’s looking fast and explosive. Ich habe keine Beschwerden.

Adrien’s got everything; he’s a real throwback fighter. Er hat Geschwindigkeit, he’s got power, he’s got quickness, er hat Beinarbeit. He can punch and he can bang and he can box.He’s got skills and he can be slick if he wants to be. So he’s the total package.

We have an idea of the way the fight is going to go. We’ve studied tons of Pacquiao footage and he pretty much fights the same every fight. Manny’s a rhythm fighter so it’s all about getting in his rhythm. He pretty much does his thing. But outside of that I’ve never really seen him make too many adjustments. He’s pretty much the same guy.
