SAN ANTONIO (Březen 11, 2018) - Mikey Garcia captured a world title in his fourth weight division, outpointing previously undefeated Sergey Lipinets to win the IBF Junior Welterweight World Championship Sobota on SHOWTIME from Freeman Coliseum in San Antonio.

S vítězstvím, Garcia (38-0, 30 KO) joined Manny Pacquiao and Juan Manuel Marquez as the only fighters in history to win titles at 126, 130, 135 a 140 liber.

“It’s a great feeling. Winning this fourth title in a fourth division is an honor,“ řekl Garcia. “To get to be mentioned with Manny Pacquiao and Juan Manuel Marquez is a huge honor for me. It just leaves a little chapter in boxing with my name, my brother, můj táta. I think people will remember the Garcia family for ages to come.”

Garcia, who was fighting for just the second time at 140 liber, relied on a steady diet of combos to back up Lipinets, who was making the first defense of the IBF title he won last November on SHOWTIME. Garcia floored Lipinets for the first time in his career, connecting on a counter left hook midway through the seventh in a rousing moment that sent the pro-Garcia crowd at Freeman Coliseum to their feet.

Garcia, who won by scores of 116-111 a 117-110 dvakrát, connected on 46 percent of his power shots compared to 36 percent for the defending champion.

“He came in exactly as I expected – a very tough, very hungry and strong fighter,“ řekl Garcia. “We worked with angles behind the jab. He’s very dangerous, but we had a great game plan and we were able to prevail.

“I know I carry the power, but I was fighting a bigger man and he could take a punch. I didn’t want to get caught and I had to be patient.”

Po boji, Garcia, who still holds the WBC title at lightweight, reiterated his mantra that he’s seeking the biggest fights available, regardless of weight division.

“What I love is I have all the options,“ řekl Garcia. “I could go down to 135 to unify titles, which is what I really want to do. And in a couple of fights you’re going to see me at 147.

Despite being the defending champion, Lipinets (13-1, 10 KO) was fighting in just his 14th profesionální boj. Rus, who was born in Kazakhstan, delivered a valiant effort against one of the best pound-for-pound fighters in the world.

“It was probably experience that took over at some point,” Lipinets said. „Mikey je velký bojovník, he can obviously crack. It was just experience that I was lacking.

“I want to go back in the gym and work on the problems I showed in the ring. There are a couple of holes I need to close. I’ll be back. It’s a learning experience.”

In a rematch of one of 2017’s best and most controversial fights, Kiryl Relikh handed former two-division world champion Rances Barthelemy the first loss of his career with a wide unanimous decision victory to capture the vacant WBA Super Lightweight World Championship.

Relikvie (22-2, 19 KO) was the more active fighter and controlled the co-main event of the SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast from the opening bell, házení 1,237 total punches compared to just 494 for Barthelemy. Relikvie, who many thought won their first matchup, consistently worked off his jab, připojení na 103 punches per round while Barthelemy landed an average of just 41.

While Barthelemy (26-1, 13 KO) won a disputed and wide decision in their first bout there was no controversy in the judges’ scorecards in the rematch, , který byl hodnocen 117-110 a 118-109 dvakrát.

Relikh became just the third fighter from Belarus to win a world title while Barthelemy came up short in his bid to become the first Cuban to win a world title in three weight divisions.

“Last time I was not ready,” Relikh said. “I didn’t have proper preparation in the first fight but this time, with my new trainers, Byl jsem připraven. Jsem velmi rád. I’ve waited for this dream for 20 léta. I’ve worked hard for this dream and now it’s mine.

Coming in we were looking to box all the way. My jab has developed so much since the last fight. They probably thought that I would run out of gas like last time, but I trained like a champion this time. Everything was geared toward becoming champion and that’s what we did dnes večer."

Barthelemy, who picked up the pace a bit in the final three rounds, didn’t dispute the decision.

My heart is broken because I came in to this fight trying to get that third world title,” Barthelemy said. “I have to admit defeat and say that Relikh deserved to win that fight, but I will be back.

“At this point I have to look forward and put it behind me.

The featured attraction of the SHOWTIME BOXING on SHO EXTREME telecast saw San Antonio’s own Mario Barrios (21-0, 13 KO) deliver a sensational second round knockout of Eudy Bernardo (23-3, 17 KO) in front of his hometown fans.

I definitely made a statement dnes večer,” said Barrios. “I showed the 140-pound division that I’m here and ready for any of them.”

Barrios was dominant from the start and struck early in the second with a vicious straight right that put Bernardo down. Although Bernardo got to his feet and beat the count, referee Jon Schorle had seen enough and waved off the bout 45 seconds into the second round of the super lightweight affair.

I wasn’t going in there looking for the knockout, but I caught him early,” said Barrios. “I’ve been on a good run and I’m ready to continue that streak. We’re moving up the ranks fight by fight. I’m looking to get a title eliminator by the end of the year and hopefully a title shot early next year.

V úvodním zápasu na SHO EXTREME televizního vysílání, Richard Commey (26-2, 23 KO) scored a sixth-round TKO of Alejandro Luna (22-1, 15 KO) in their IBF Lightweight World Title Eliminator.

Despite the win, my performance wasn’t up to the level that I hoped it would be,” said Commey. “He was exactly what I expected and if I had connected on more of my punches in the beginning I think the fight would have been over earlier. I was really trying to work on what we had been focusing on in camp but I just wasn’t performing well at the start of the fight.”

The fight was defined by exciting exchanges throughout, with Commey, fighting on his 31st narozeniny, getting the better early and connecting with power punches that caused Luna’s jaw to swell. Commey’s power broke through in round six when a powerful combination punctuated by a left uppercut sent Luna to the canvas for the first time in his career.

“Jsem velmi zklamán,” said Luna. “All the credit to Commey, but I expect more of myself and I’m going to get back in the gym and come back much stronger and better.

Luna rose to his feet but was quickly pounced on by Commey, který přistál 62 percent of his power punches in the round, and was sent to the mat again. This forced referee David Fields to call a halt to the bout at 1:54 of round six. Commey now becomes the mandatory challenger for IBF Lightweight World Champion Robert Easter, who Commey lost a split decision to in September 2016.

It is the greatest feeling to get the win on my 31st birthday,” said Commey. “I am looking forward to fighting for the 135-pound world title and becoming champion.

The SHO EXTREME swing bout featured unbeaten prospect Brandon Figueroa (15-0, 10 KO) scoring a seventh round knockout of Mexico’s Giovanni Delgado (16-6, 9 KO) in their super bantamweight clash.

Figueroa, the brother of former champion Omar, continued to show the aggressive style that has defined his early career as he threw an astonishing 178 punches in the third round. That number was good for the second most ever thrown in a single round by a fighter in a super bantamweight bout, Podle Compuboxu.

The 21-year-old Figueroa continued to put the pressure on, battering Delgado until referee Gregorio Alvarez halted the fight at 1:55sedmého kola.

At the end of my career, this is the fight that will have opened the door for even bigger fights. I plan on moving up and fighting even bigger names. This is the kind of fight that really motivates me and it’s going to be the first of many big fights.
I’m very focused on Sergey Lipinets. The entire camp I’ve known what’s in front of me. I know he’s hungry and wants to defend his title. He knows what’s in front of him, so I know he’ll be in the best shape possible. Lipinets knows what a win over me will do for his career, and it’s my job to make sure that doesn’t happen.
I don’t have a specific goal in this sport but I know that I need to win more world titles in more weight classes. I know that at the end of my career I’ll get the credit that I deserve.
I’m happy to bring this show to a beautiful city like San Antonio and I just want everybody to come out v sobotu. This is a great boxing city and I know they’re going to show up for a great night of boxing. There are lots of candidates for ‘Fight of the Nighton this card. We’re all hungry and we’re all here to win.
SERGEY LIPINETS
“Jsem velmi šťastný za tuto příležitost. If you’ve followed my career you’ve seen that I never take a shortcut. It meant a lot to win a world title but I’ve really always wanted to fight the best of the best. Mikey gave me that chance and I was eager to take it.
I have no concerns about my hand at all. My right hand is hungry and it’s going to be eating a lotv sobotu noc.
“Jsem mladý, I’m hungry and I have a great team behind me. Jsem rychlý, strong and I have all the confidence I need heading into this fight.
Rances Barthélemy
I’m very excited to be here in San Antonio fighting for the first time. Everyone knows that the first fight with Relikh was an unbelievable war. People thought it was a close fight, but I’m here to make history and erase any doubt.
This is going to be a great show with great action all night long. The fight fans here in San Antonio are great and I hope everyone shows up for it.
Everyone knows that Cubans have a rich tradition in boxing, including one of my trainers, Joel Casamayor. It’s an amazing feat to be able to be the first Cuban to win world titles in three weight classes.
I always tell the truth and Relikh is a powerful puncher, I won’t take that away from him. I never touched the canvas though, but Relikh did. V sobotu noc, I’m going to put him back on the canvas.
KIRYL RELIKH
I’m very happy to have this opportunity again to fight against Barthelemy again. It’s good for me that this time we will be fighting for a world title. I’m very happy for my new team and you will see a new fighter v sobotu.
I don’t think I lost the first fight, but that’s up to the judges. Tentokrát, we will be much better and not leave it in the judgeshands if we have the opportunity.
This is boxing so we know anything can happen. Two world class fighters are going for the world title, so of course I’m going to be at my best. This is going to be a fight you cannot miss v sobotu.”
MARIO BARRIOS
It’s great to be back home. I’m very excited for the opportunity to show off in front of my people and show them what I’ve been working on.
I had a great camp out there with Virgil Hunter. I can’t wait to be on this huge card. These fighters up here are champions that I look forward to meeting real soon in the ring.
It’s going to be an exciting night. Jsem mladý, I’m hungry and I’m a Mexican fighter competing at home in Texas. I hope everyone comes out for a great show.
EUDY BERNARDO
I feel very good about my fight. Training camp went really well and I think I’ve done everything I need to do to win.
V sobotu, I’m going to get in the ring and take care of the game plan we came up with in the gym. I’m really going to focus on solid defense and pressuring the guy, because I’m in really good shape.
Barrios is a really good fighter, I know he’s undefeated but if I execute my game plan and focus on what I’ve been working on in the gym I’ll be successful. I want to take him in to deeper waters, to the fourth and fifth rounds, and try to get him on his heels.
I’ve been working really really hard on good defense and staying low. once I get past the third, fourth and fifth rounds that’s when the fight is really going to start.
ALEJANDRO LUNA
It feels great to be on this stage. I’ve been doing this since I was nine-years-old so the time is now. I’m ready to take full advantage of this.
“Soustředění bylo skvělé. The only bump we had was the postponement of the fight, but we slowed it down a little bit so we could peak at the right time. Jsem připraven jít.
Richard Commey comes from a rich boxing background and those fighters from Ghana are all known for coming forward. I think our styles are really going to clash nicely. The real winner of this fight is going to be the fans.
RICHARD COMMEY
The change to Andre Rozier as my trainer was something I needed and wanted. I’m very happy to be working with one of the best trainers in the country and so far he’s helped me improve in many ways.
I know that Luna is going to apply pressure and come forward. He’s going to look to throw big right hands, so we’re getting ready for all of that.
I just have to stick to my game plan and make sure I’m always first. My job is to go in and get the win and convince the judges any way that I can that I’m the better fighter.
ROBERT GARCIA, Garciin bratr & Trenér
I’ve worked with many Russian and Eastern Europeans fighters before and the one thing about those guys is, they are the most dedicated fighters I’ve ever worked with.
I know Sergey is in the best shape of his life because a win over Mikey will bring him even bigger fights. We know we’ll have a tough, silný soupeř v sobotu night and that’s what we’ve prepared for.
BUDDY MCGIRT, Lipinets’ Trenér
You have to wait until Saturday night to see what’s going to happen. After the fight I’ll tell everyone how we got the job done.
It’s fun to me to be in these kind of fights. Mikey Garcia comes from a great pedigree of fighting. Robert Garcia is a gentleman who’s taken limited fighters and got them to the top. Mikey has a lot of talent so they have their eyes on a lot more world titles, ale v sobotu noc, you’ll have to wait and watch happens.
RICHARD SCHAEFER, Předseda & CEO of Sports Ringstar
For as little as $20 you can be part of a historic night of boxing. This arena is built for boxing so I hope all the local fans come out to witness history being made.
SHOWTIME has continued to put on the best fights week after week and month after month. They have really become the sole leader in this sport and are a big reason why there has been such a resurgence of boxing in the U.S.
This fight card has a little bit of everything. There are five Texans fighting on this card, most notably San Antonio’s Mario Barrios, plus emerging stars such as Alejandro Luna and Richard Commey, who are looking to make names for themselves.
The 140-pound division is on full display Saturday night with Rances Barthelemy and Kiryl Relikh meeting in a world title rematch for a world title. Plus of course we have the historic matchup as Sergey Lipinets defends his title while Mikey Garcia seeks a fourth world title in a weight class.
These are exciting fighters, big punchers and you will see fireworks Sobota night from Freeman Coliseum in San Antonio.

MIKEY GARCIA VS. SERGEY LIPINETS MEDIA WORKOUT QUOTES & FOTKY

Junior Welterweight World Title Showdown Headlines SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING Saturday, Březen 10 from Freeman Coliseum

SAN ANTONIO (Březen 7, 2018) – Unbeaten three division world champion Mikey Garcia a juniorský mistr světa ve welterové váze IBF Sergey Lipinets kicked off fight week in San Antonio Wednesday by participating in media workouts at the Robert Garcia Boxing Academy before they enter the ring Sobota, Březen 10 žít na SHOWTIME (10:15 p.m. A/PT) from Freeman Coliseum.
Also participating in Wednesday’s workout and competing on the SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast was two-division world champion Rances Barthelemy, která splňuje Kiryl Relikh v odvetném zápase jejich napínavého boje loni v květnu, tentokrát na volné WBA 140 liber světový titul.
Vstupenky na koncertě, kterou propagují Ringstar Sports a TGB Promotions ve spolupráci s Leija-Battah Promotions, jsou ceny na $250, $150, $75, $50 a $20 a jsou již v prodeji. Vstupenky jsou k dispozici na Ticketmaster.com nebo na tel 800-745-3000 nebo 210 556-7390.
Neporažený uchazeč Mario Barrios, San Antonio, was also in attendance on Wednesday as he prepares for his SHOWTIME EXTREME matchup against Eudy Bernardo. The SHOWTIME BOXING in SHO EXTREME telecast begins live at 8 p.m. A/PT a funkce neporaženy Alejandro Luna čelí bývalému soupeři o titul mistra světa Richard Commey ve 12kolovém IBF Lightweight Title Eliminator.
Zde je to, co bojovníci museli říkat:
MIKEY GARCIA
I want to take on these big opportunities because I want to challenge myself. This is another chance to prove to all the fans what kind of fighter I am.
Everything depends on my opponent. If I find there’s an opportunity to go for a knockout, I’m definitely going to take it. If it goes 12 kola, then he’s a very tough fighter and I expect Lipinets to be tough. I’m just going to do whatever it takes to win the fight. If the opportunity is there, I’m definitely going to go for the knockout because that’s what we’re here to do. I’m here to make the fight as easy as possible.
“Cítím se dobře. I’m fighting a bigger man naturally, so that’s something I have to get adjusted to but I still feel that my ability and my skills are enough to compete at the highest level with these men and that’s why I’m comfortable fighting at 140. I still feel that 135 might be a better fit for me because I’m a little bit of a naturally bigger, stronger man at 135, but at 140 I feel just as good as far as my speed, my footwork and my reflexes.
It would be very nice to win a fourth division title. That would obviously be a big accomplishment in my career and it would be the second time I won the title here in the state of Texas. I have a lot of appreciation and love for San Antonio boxing fans.
Some critics aren’t giving Lipinets much credit because he’s only had 13 boje, but that tells you how good of a fighter he is. It took me 30 fights to be a world champion. He’s a high caliber fighter who brings great danger. Konec konců, I believe I’m the better boxer and that will help me get the win.
SERGEY LIPINETS
It was a great camp. We had a lot of different sparring partners that were giving me different looks as far as boxing abilities. Every single one of them had styles similar to Mikey. Jsem připraven jít. I’m not going to let anything get in the way. I’ll come out victorious Saturday night.
“Cítím se skvěle. It doesn’t matter if I’m an underdog or not, I’m ready to prove everybody wrong. I really want to show everybody that I’m the one that they should be looking at; that I’m the champion.
Mikey’s records and accomplishments don’t matter to me. He’s got two hands, two feet and one head. He’s just another person, he’s just another fighter I’m fighting. I prepared for little different things to fight Mikey but once I get in the ring, it’s going to be Mikey and me and you’ll see how it’s going to go down.
My hand injury took place over the course of sparring. We were changing sparring partners two rounds at a time. I hit one of them at some point and the next morning [the injury] blew up. I didn’t really feel it at the time when I hurt it.
It’s completely cured; there is no problem with the hand and you’ll see it in action v sobotu noc – no problem at all.
Rances Barthélemy
I studied [Relikvie] a lot so I expect the same type of performance that I’ve studied, based off what he’s done in his past fights and what he did with me in our last fight. I know he’s strong, he’s a hard-hitter, and he always looks for that punch. I expect that this time around as well. He likes to exchange; that’s another thing I’m looking for. I know he’s going to come with all those tools in to the ring so I expect that and my team has prepared exactly for that.
I feel like a completely new guy. V minulosti, I’ve eaten poorly before and after fights. I feel like I’ve reconnected with my youth. My energy has come back thanks to Bob Santos, my new strength and conditioning coach, who has taught me a lot about nutrition and things that I can use not just in the ring, but also outside of the ringthings I can use to prolong my life.
I’m unlocking some of the skills I had in my younger days. They will be one of the key determining factors in how I perform v sobotu. I haven’t felt this good in a long time and I’m thankful for that because I feel like a new guy. I usually have concerns about making weight, but not this time around.
My nutrition and physical condition took a toll on me last time I fought. I didn’t think my body was going to react the way it did when I got into the ring. My legs really gave out on me. But not now. Tentokrát, I’m coming with a whole new gameplan and I’m not going to have to force myself to adapt to [Relikh’s] strategy. The first time we fought, I felt like I had to fight his fight. I had to make adjustments in the ring and exchange a lot with him. I took a lot of punishment.
I’m definitely not looking past Relikh, I’m really focused on this fight. I want to win this fight. I’m looking for big names after. I can fight anyone between 135 a 147 nyní. Broner, Garcia, Lomachenko, it’s only big names what I’m after next.
MARIO BARRIOS
This fight it’s a huge step up and probably my toughest fight to date. My opponent looks really good on paper and he has a lot of power. But I’m not concerned. I had a great camp and I’m ready to give my best in front of my hometown fans.I really hope he is ready to fight because I’m going to go in there v sobotu and take care of business. It’s going to be a very explosive fight.
We are going to continue climbing the ranks at 140. I hope that I can face Mikey Garcia or Rances Barthelemy at some point. I think early next year I may be ready to go toe-to-toe with them.
No added pressure fighting at home, all of this is motivation. I’ve been waiting to fight back here for a while. Jsem nadšený z této příležitosti
Every time I’m out there in the Bay Area at Virgil Hunter’s gym I’m always picking up different things. Every camp, l learn from different guys at the gym – Andre Dirrell, Andre Ward, Amir Kahn. We have our game plan, which I can’t discuss, but going for it v sobotu. We should be able to go in there and take care of business, no problem.

Barrios has won four fights in a row by knockout since moving up to the 140-pound division in 2017, all while under the tutelage of renowned trainer Virgil Hunter in Oakland. Zde je to, co Barrios řekl o tréninkovém kempu, his upcoming fight and more:
On his matchup with Eudy Bernardo
He is a solid opponent with a lot of experience. He has a high work rate that you can tell that by his nickname ‘AK-47’. He is the perfect opponent for me at this point in my career as I start my climb to a world title. I know he’s coming to fight as am I, so there will definitely be some fireworks.
On filling in to the 140-pound division
I have filled out perfectly for this division and working with Virgil Hunter has helped a lot. It is no secret that I have had four fights with Virgil Hunter and each one of them has ended with a knockout. I am stronger than ever, and I feel completely comfortable at junior welterweight. This is the weight class that I’ll be campaigning for a world title at.
On fighting in his hometown of San Antonio….
It is a blessing to fight in my hometown. I get homesick sometimes when I train as I think about family, friends and all the places I love to visit back home. Je to dobrý pocit, not just to be able to fight at home, but to put on a great show for everyone that knows me as well. San Antonio needs a big star they can get behind and I feel I can be the one to fill that role.
On fighting on SHO EXTREME
Whenever your fight is televised it is a great honor, but I truly believe SHOWTIME is doing amazing things for boxing right now, and to be on this telecast is tremendous. I work very hard in the gym and pride myself on a fan-pleasing style and getting opportunities to show off my skills on such a large platform is amazing and something I am very grateful for.
V jeho nedávném výcvikovém táboře…
This camp has been very good. I’ve gotten lots of different looks and I’m well prepared to go into battle. I love training at Virgil Hunter’s Boxing Gym because we have a great routine, with a lot of top fighters. I also started training with SNAC’s Remi Korchemny, who is increasing my speed and endurance, which will be very noticeable in this fight. I have trained very hard for this fight, so you can expect a great performance.

Barthelemy, who is trained by Ismael Salas and former world champion and Cuban boxing legend Joel Casamayor, can become the first Cuban fighter to win world titles in three weight classes with a win on March 10. Here is what Barthelemy had to say Čtvrtek from City Athletic Boxing Club in Las Vegas:
Rances Barthélemy
It’s in my character to take this rematch immediately. I was very happy once I found out everything was ready to go for it. I want to prove to the fans and to myself that I can do much better than I did in May. I want to show Relikh how much better I am than him.
It’s on my mind all the time that I have a chance to make history for Cuban boxing. There have been so many great Cuban fighters throughout the years. I never imagined I’d be in position to make history myself but I know it’s a reward for my hard work and dedication.
A fight with Mikey Garcia is something I want. I’m completely focused on this fight against Relikh and making history, but I would be prepared to fight Mikey Garcia soon.
I’m going to change a lot heading into the rematch. Last May I wasn’t myself. I didn’t feel like I had my legs coming into the fight and I wasn’t able to perform how I usually do. This time my conditioning and nutrition is much improved. I’m going to use my legs and use my jab and put on a boxing clinic.
There was nothing surprising about Relikh in the first fight. We knew he’d have power, but unfortunately I had to change my game plan when my body wasn’t cooperating. I traded shots and fought his fight. I’m going to stick to my plan this time.
Throughout my career I haven’t paid enough attention to nutrition. It made my performances inconsistent. Bob Santos has come in and completely changed that. You’ll see my conditioning on fight night is the best it’s ever been.

Spojení Garcia a Lipinets na Úterní workout byl bývalým vyzyvatelem titulu Josesito Lopez, kdo soutěží v podkartové akci ve Freeman Coliseum na Březen 10.
Zde je to, co se účastníci museli říkat Úterý z Boxerského klubu City of Angels v Los Angeles:
MIKEY GARCIA
“Jsem rád, že mám další příležitost Březen 10 ukázat svým fanouškům, o co mi jde a co umím v ringu. Připravuji se na zisk dalšího světového titulu a to je vše, na co teď myslím.
“Ani jeden z nás nechce prohrát. Oba jsme neporažení a nikdo se toho nechce vzdát ‘0'. To z toho udělá skvělý boj pro fanoušky.
“Nemám řadu titulů, které bych hledal, ale věřím, že budu šampion ve 140 librách a nakonec ve velterové váze. Každý boj je jedinečný a budu ho brát jeden zápas za druhým.
“Vyhrával jsem a dominoval ve svých bojích, ale stále mám prostor ukázat fanouškům více ze svých dovedností. Potřebuji soupeře, kteří ze mě vytáhnou to nejlepší. Budu se snažit ovládnout každý souboj a usnadnit si to v ringu.
“Bylo trochu znepokojující, že jsme na tento boj museli čekat, ale to je součást sportu. Když jsme se dozvěděli novinky, vzali jsme si den volna a pak jsme se vrátili do práce. Teď jsme v předstihu, takže to dopadlo skvěle.
“Jsme rádi, že jsme tam, kde jsme, a že máme příležitost vyhrát další titul mistra světa. Jsem nanejvýš nadšený, že mě to skutečně přibližuje uznání, které si zasloužíme, a cílům, kterých chci dosáhnout.
“Sergey Lipinets je teď prioritou číslo jedna. Je to neporažený mistr světa a nemůžu ho vůbec brát na lehkou váhu. Budu se řídit svým herním plánem a právě teď jsem na dobré cestě podat skvělý výkon.
“Věc číslo jedna, kterou u Sergeje vidím, je jeho velikost. Je to větší muž, takže se budu muset připravit na váhu. Protože je to mladý nový šampion, opravdu nemá co ztratit. Přichází se vším, co má.
“Vím, že tento boj bude brát vážněji než kterýkoli jiný, který bral. Vím, že má v sobě ten oheň. Musím si být vědom jeho síly a použít své boxerské schopnosti, abych ji překonal.”
SERGEY LIPINETS
“To bude velký boj. Oba budeme u 100 procent v noci boje a připraveni vydat ze sebe to nejlepší. Tohle nebude jednostranný boj. Budou to dva gladiátoři, kteří na sebe půjdou.
“Mikey je velký bojovník. Má spoustu dovedností, zejména defenzivně. Budu na něj připraven. Bude to krev, pot a slzy.
“Pokud jste sledovali mé předchozí zápasy, víte, že to bude skvělý boj. Budeme tam oba před sebou a nebudeme se líbat a objímat.
“Jsem velmi rád, že jsem v této pozici a hodlám toho využít. Vyhrát titul mistra světa znamenalo hodně, ale tohle jsou zápasy, kvůli kterým se dostanete do boxu. Tohle je šance, jak opravdu zapsat své jméno do historických knih.
“Všechno je podle plánu na ruku. Používal jsem ho dle libosti bez problémů. Budu připraven jít do bojové noci. Nikdy jsem nepřestal pracovat, takže přechod byl velmi snadný, jakmile se ruka zahojila.”
JOSESITO LOPEZ
“Nemůžu se dočkat, až ukážu nějaké nové věci, na kterých jsem v táboře pracoval. Cítím se opravdu silný, rychle a rychle a jsem nadšený, že to všechno dám dohromady v noci boje.
“Sparing s Mikeym Garciou pro mě byl dobrý. Je to opravdu inteligentní bojovník, je velmi přesný a vše dělá s určitým cílem. Být tam s ním ze mě dělá lepšího bojovníka.
“Těším se, až se vrátím do ringu. Tvrdě jsem pracoval s Robertem Garciou na různých herních plánech a zdokonalování svého stylu. Moje tělo se cítí dobře a jsem připraven soutěžit s nejlepšími bojovníky.
“Robert má v Riverside skvělou tělocvičnu se spoustou talentovaných bojovníků. Vždy pracujeme a vy musíte být připraveni na zápas s kýmkoli. Mladí kluci mi dali opravdu dobrou práci a udrželi mě ve střehu, které jsem posledních pár let potřeboval.”
ROBERT GARCIA, Garciin bratr & Trenér
“Lipinets má moc a my bojujeme v jeho váhové kategorii. Lipinets je přirozeně větší bojovník a víme, že je to oddaný bojovník. Jsem si jistý, že trénuje jako nikdy předtím.
“Pro Lipinets je to životní příležitost. Vítězství v tomto boji ho staví do skvělé pozice, takže musíme být velmi opatrní. nemůžeme ho brát na lehkou váhu, protože to nebude snadné. Ale borci jako Mikey, se svými dovednostmi, jsou někdy schopni překonat jakoukoli nevýhodu.
“Bojovníci jako Floyd Mayweather a Manny Pacquiao se dokázali posunout na váhu a stále dominovali, kvůli jejich skvělým dovednostem. To dokáže jen velmi málo bojovníků. Věříme, že Mikey je jedním z těch speciálních bojovníků.”
BUDDY MCGIRT, Lipinets’ Trenér
“Klíčem je nebýt jednorozměrný. Sergej se na něj bude celou noc dívat jinak. Jakmile šlápne na plyn, uvidíme, z čeho je Mikey vyroben.
“Mikey od svého návratu nebojoval s nikým konkurenceschopným. Věřím, že už je to nějaký čas, co se Mikey rval, kde se musel kopat a pracovat. Jakmile Sergey šlápne na plyn, uvidíme, co v něm bude. nepochybuji o něm, protože pochází z rodiny skvělých bojovníků a trenérů. Ale někdy se ta prstencová rez spustí v době, kdy si to nemůžete dovolit.
“Jsme připraveni na všechno. Jakmile se tam dostaneme, dáme Mikeymu vše, co můžeme, až přijde čas.
“Sledujeme Sergeje a mohli jsme říct, jestli váhá nebo se drží zpátky, když hodí pravou rukou. Nedělal to. Teď je to jen otázka času. Vše běží podle plánu.”

Sousedství (20-0 12 KO), kterého trénuje Virgil Hunter, se vrací ke svému prvnímu profesionálnímu zápasu v San Antoniu od chvíle, kdy skóroval 2015 knockout nad Manuelem Videsem v AT&T Center in 2015. 22letý hráč vyhrál tři zápasy v řadě o zastavení od loňského postupu do 140 liber.

Pokud tomu tak není, jdeme tam dělat to, co umíme nejlépe, a to je výhra.

Boj ze Santo Dominga, Dominikánská republika, Bernardo (23-2, 17 KO) vstupuje do tohoto boje poté, co ve svých posledních dvou zápasech zaznamenal vyřazovací vítězství.

Commey se odrazil od těsné porážky do Velikonoc a následné těsné prohry s Denisem Shafikovem jednomyslným vítězstvím loni v březnu v rodné Ghaně..
“Commey je těžký konkurent, jehož ztráty byly velmi těsné, sporné souboje, které mohly dopadnout jakkoliv, tak půjdu být chytrý, používat můj úder a držet se našeho herního plánu,” řekla Luna. “Oba jsme boxeři, kteří to rádi kombinují, házet bomby a rvát se, pokud musíme. Bude tam hodně akce a my můžeme show ukrást. Dáme fanouškům jejich peníze, tak či tak.”
“Myslím, že je to dobrý zápas, kde ani jeden z nás není favorit,” řekl Commey. “Po ztrátě dvou těsných rozhodnutí je přirozený tlak jít na knockout. Ale věřím, že rozhodčí budou spravedliví a odmění mě, když to ujde, abych si vysloužil další ránu na titul. Toto je můj první zápas s Andrem Rozierem a inspiruje mě práce v jeho tělocvičně s kluky jako Daniel Jacobs a Sadam Ali. Já jsem 100 procento se soustředilo na jasné poražení Luny a získání odvety s Robertem Easterem Jr.”

“Jsem rád, že jsem na tak velké kartě. San Antonio je jako můj druhý domov,” Said Figueroa, který je 5-0 se čtyřmi knockouty v San Antoniu. “Na této světové akci, kterou moderuje Mikey Garcia, dostávám hodně pozornosti k boji. Je to druh kroku, který potřebuji. Postupně se stávám známým, nejen ve Spojených státech, ale od lidí z celého světa.”

Zde je to, co měli bojovníci říci po jejich zápasech:
JOSESITO LOPEZ
Dnes večer was a result of all the work I put in over the last few months with Robert Garcia.
I dropped him with a left hook, but he’s a gritty guy. He took some punishment. I was a little careful in there, ačkoli. It’s been a while since I fought some good rounds like that. There were a few times that I tried to go for the kill, but he’s tough guy and stayed alive.
It felt good going the distance. My body felt good. Více než všechno, I was alert and my instincts were quick. I had good reflexes and I was sharp. I got hit with very few punches, so I think I did OK dnes večer.
I’m coming along. This is my second fight coming back za dva roky. It’s a little process. I feel like for my next fight I’ll be that much better. I’m just focused on continuing to get better. I want to step it up for the next fight.
We have a plan. Robert and I have only been training together for a short while, but the improvement is there and there’s more to come.
I’m the Riverside Rocky and I want to be in exciting fights that friends and family members will remember for years. I definitely have the grit and the (guts) to get in there with the best of them. I’m a lot smarter inside the ring now.
SAUL CORRAL
I felt like my distance was off dnes večer. I think I need to spend more time sparring. I didn’t have a lot of sparring partners for this fight and I think that affected me.
I thought when Lopez landed punches I came back strong, but I didn’t continue with the attacks because he was able to stop me.
I just need to change some things up in training camp, and then I think I can get back to another big fight.
ALEJANDRO LUNA
Klimov is a very tough guy. We’ve seen him go the distance with Terrence Crawford. He’s fought the cream of the crop, so it’s an honor to get a win over him. He’s a top-level fighter, so this victory goes to show that we’re ready for any top-five lightweight.
Our plan dnes večer was to work the body. We noticed he has a pretty high guard, so I wanted to go to the body to break him down little by little.
I know that I hurt him with a couple body shots, but he recovered fast. Later on, I hit him with an overhand right that got to him, but he’s such a tough guy.
My thing is always to please the crowd. I think this sport is as much about entertainment as it is skill and the fans want to see a show. That’s why I bring the action and do whatever I can to make it exciting for them.
The last round wasn’t my best. He was outworking me a little, so as soon as the 10-second bell rang I wanted to close the fight out strong. Bohužel, I opened up and we clashed heads, which caused the cut over my left eye.
Andrey Klimov
I got staggered a little bit, but it wasn’t anything that I thought was going to turn my lights out.
Luna is a very herky jerky fighter. The cut over my left eye came near the end of the fight when we clashed heads.
“Já jsem 35 let. We’re going to go home and take some time to think about what’s next. I’ve been fortunate to do a lot of things in this sport. Now it’s time to talk with my family and decide my future.
KARLOS BALDERAS
We spent a lot of time sparring with great fighters to get ready for this fight. I think all the practice paid off and my speed was my biggest asset dnes večer.
I think their corner stopped the fight because he was taking so many shots, but I’m not sure.
I’m happy and excited to be a pro. I have so many people here dnes večer supporting me coming in from Oklahoma and Texas, so it’s an honor. I felt like a win wasn’t enough. I needed to make a statement.
I’m going to try to stay busy. I’d like to fight every two months, so I hope to be back in June fighting again.
THOMAS SMITH
I really had a bad headache. After the first two punches, I thought I could take it. I know he has a good body shot, but it didn’t really affect me. But after the fourth and fifth good one, I knew it was too much. I didn’t want to go out there in the second round just to get hurt.
MISAEL RODRIGUEZ
I honestly thought it was going to be an easier opponent. I haven’t been active since the Olympics eight months ago, but I trained very hard for this fight and got the win dnes večer.
I don’t think he brought anything to the table that was that different than what I’ve seen before, but it was my first pro fight and maybe there were some first fight jitters.
I’ve never had a bloody nose before, tak dnes večer was definitely something different for me, but I rolled with the punches.
It means a lot to me to be a professional fighter now. I know the expectations are higher, and there are a lot of differences between the pros and amateurs, but it felt great in there.
EIMANTAS STANIOS
“Měl jsem skvělý tábor, I have fantastic coaches and I work hard every day in the gym. Dnes večer, it all paid off.
I saw that I was able to land some good shots, and I could tell I was getting to him a little bit, so I started throwing more and more to try and stop him.
This has been a dream of mine forever. I grew up watching legends like Mike Tyson and Manny Pacquiao, and now I’m a professional fighter just like them.
I’m ready to continue proving myself. I’ll fight anyone they put in front of me.
LINDOLFO DELGADO
My team and I had a game plan and I followed it to the letter.
The punch that I dropped (Silva) with was a left uppercut. Thankfully I was able to land it and I knew I had him hurt.
Competing in Rio de Janeiro in the Olympics was an incredible experience and a good learning lesson for me, but now I’ve officially made my transition into the pros. It felt different in the ring dnes večer, but I was very prepared.
I’m just going to continue training hard to build on this performance and little by little we’re going to reach our goals.
MONEY POWELL IV
I did what I wanted to do dnes večer. I dominated early. (Templeton) is a tough, old dude, and I want to thank him for taking this fight and allowing me to showcase my skills.
I was just trying to start the fight out by controlling my distance and using my jab, but I could see he didn’t have much to offer, so I stopped using my jab so much. Once I realized I could land shots on him I went with my power punches because anything I threw was going to get him.
Becoming a professional fighter is a dream come true for me. I always wanted to be a fighter ever since I was a little kid. Thankfully Richard Schaefer signed me and gave me a chance to realize my dream.
This is only the beginning for me. I’m trying to be the best fighter that’s ever lived.

Zde je to, co se účastníci museli říkat Středa v přední části Over 100 attendees including media, civic leaders and boxing fans from the community
JOSESITO LOPEZ
First thing is that I can’t look past my opponent v neděli noc. If all goes well, I know that bigger things are coming. I want to give fans fights that they’ll remember for years to come. I’m that guy who wants to make great fights.
I know that I’m facing a tough fighter from Mexico. I always know that these guys come with a real hunger to win. I’ve prepared very well and I’m ready to put on a show Nedělenoc.
I’ve taken advantage of opportunities given to me in the past and I’m looking to take advantage of every one I get. I’m going to show off my abilities v neděli.
I’m in a good state of mind right now. I’ve been working for several months and I really feel 100 percent physically.
This is going to be a good fight. He’s going to come with the will to win. I’ll be smart and use my abilities. I’ve been working on some new things and Neděle will be a glimpse of what’s left to come.
It’s an honor for me to be the main event on a card with so many great young fighters. I remember that moment many years ago. These fighters are the future. To je jen začátek. I’m the present right now and I’m going to show that v neděli.”
ALEJANDRO LUNA
More than anything I think that the fans can expect fireworks. I’m fighting a crafty veteran guy in Klimov who has fought the best. He’s fought guys like Terrence Crawford and Jose Pedraza. Our styles are meant for each other and I think they’re going to clash. The fans are going to be the real winners.
I say yes to every challenge they put in front of me. This is a big test. I feel confident in my training and I believe I can get past Klimov. I think getting this win shows that I’m ready to fight any champion in the lightweight division.
“Trénuji 100 percent every time. I had a smooth camp and I’m ready to go. My work ethic is my secret weapon. I’m a believer that fights are won in the gym.
I fight for the people every time I’m in the ring. They’re paying money to see a great fight and I want them to get their money’s worth.
I’ve been under the radar but I think that in 2017 I’m going to put myself in the world title picture. I give it my all in the ring.
MISAEL RODRIGUEZ
I’m excited because I have a great team behind me with Richard Schaefer, Abner Mares and Robert Garcia. I feel strong and ready for this fight.
I’m so happy to be fighting in Los Angeles, because it’s like a second Mexico. I hope the fans all come out to see me because I’m going to work hard to be the next Mexican superstar.
I’m going to keep working and getting stronger and better. I have to be consistent and have good training camps so I can reach my goals.
“Trénink s Robertem Garcia bylo skvělé. He has had a lot of champions and I hope that I will be next. Him and his whole family are good people and they’ve treated me like family. I’ve learned a lot already.
“V ringu musím být chytrý. I’m a Mexican fighter in my heart and I always will be. But I have to be smart and be ready for anything in the ring.
MARICELA CORNEJO
Joel Diaz has helped me so much with the mental side of the game. The way he speaks so passionately about the sport, he transfers that to me. I feel that belief and trust. He gives me the right words to keep me going and unleash anything I was holding back.
I work really hard at this sport. People didn’t see me when I was coming up, but It’s been a real journey. I’ve never backed down from anything. I’m proud to be a female fighter in the sport right now. Female athletes are getting more attention across the world than they ever have.
Boxing means a lot to me. I’ve overcome a lot of obstacles. Getting in the ring and getting hit in the face is a lot easier than what I’ve had to go through. I love boxing because it’s all about going for the win no matter what is thrown in front of you.
RICHARD SCHAEFER, Předseda & CEO of Sports Ringstar
All of these young fighters we’re letting loose v neděli are coming to fight. This won’t be ‘Dancing with the Stars’, they will come to engage and destroy. These guys all have advanced skills and I look forward to seeing them in the ring.
Misael Rodriguez is a very charismatic person. He’s an entertainer and a fighter. With Abner behind him as a manager and Robert Garcia as a trainer, this is a kid who wants to surround himself with the best. Watching his career will be very exciting.
Josesito had his biggest win, over Victor Ortiz, right across the street at Staples Center and he is ready for the next step in his career in a stacked welterweight division. I also believe that Alejandro Luna is on the cusp of being in world title contention if he can get through Klimov v neděli. Kromě toho, you have one of the most charismatic female stars in Maricela Cornejo going along with an incredible group of young talent making their debutsv neděli.
With this new young class of fighters coming out of Southern California combined with world champions like Leo Santa Cruz, Mikey Garcia and Abner Mares, Los Angeles is on its way to being the fight capital of the world again.
I’ve never done an event on a Neděle and it definitely doesn’t happen very often. I want to challenge the status quo and try different things. I am equally excited about this Sunday card as I have been for any card I’ve promoted because of all the great young talent.
ABNER MARES, Rodriguez’s Manager
I’m nervous and excited to see Misael in the ring v neděli. He’s a fighter with a lot of heart and the desire to become a world champion just like I was coming out of the Olympics.
Our goal is to have Misael fight six times this year. We’re going to go step-by-step to make him a champion.
Misael is the future. He brings excitement and he’s likeable. He’s in a great weight class and the team he has behind him will get him to where he needs to go.
Seeing Misael grow from the manager’s side will be as exciting if not more than my own progression. I can’t wait to take him to a world championship.
