LOS ANGELES (Setembre 29, 2019) – Errol “La Veritat” Spence Jr. (26-0, 21 KOs) unified the IBF and WBC Welterweight World Titles Saturday night against two-time champion “Temps De La Funció” Shawn Porter (30-3-1,17 KOs) in an action packed main event of a FOX Sports PBC Pay-Per-View from STAPLES Center in Los Angeles.

“It feels good to win,” va dir Spence. “This is a lifetime dream. It shows hard work pays off. Thanks Shawn Porter, my whole team and all my Texas people for coming out.”

The back and forth brawl immediately garnered well-deserved Fight of the Year conversation as the two welterweight champions traded power punches from the opening bell to the end. Porter showed his trademark aggressive style throughout the action, smothering Spence while throwing his own power punches.

“Shawn Porter is a rough and awkward fighter,” va dir Spence. “I didn’t get off what I wanted to. He’s a true champion. He made it tough.”

That left it up to Spence to weather the oncoming storm and find spots to land power punches of his own. Segons Compubox, Spence landed 44% dels seus cops de poder, a 25% from Porter.

“He’s a strong kid,” va dir Porter. “We both came in to do the job. I think I had a little more than what he expected, but he handled it. Congratulations to him and his team. We’re proud of what we did.”

En la quarta ronda, Porter had Spence in some trouble, as his power shots to the head and body put Spence on the defensive. The strategy from Porter stayed the same throughout, as Spence began to adjust and find a home for his offense, especially the sweeping left hook.

Round eight saw the action taken up to yet another level as Spence initially got the worst of one of the numerous exchanges, before settling in and responding enough to keep Porter at bay. The high-octane fight continued to entertain heading into the championship rounds with the fight up in the balance.

Spence landed one of the decisive blows of the bout in round 11, connecting flush with that sweeping left hook and scoring a knockdown when Porter’s knee and glove hit the canvas. As expected, Porter rebounded strong, going at Spence and putting him on the back foot for most of the remainder of the round.

“I think that knockdown was the difference,” va dir Porter. “I couldn’t come back to the corner with my head down after that.”

The final round was more of the same, with both fighters going toe-to-toe and leaving the STAPLES Center crowd on their feet and roaring until the final bell. The final punch stats saw both men throw nearly an equal number of punches, with Spence edging Porter 745 a 744 in punches thrown and 221 a 172 in punches landed.

“All my punches have bad intentions,” va dir Spence. “By boxing Mikey Garcia, I wanted to show people I could do it with that style. Porter was throwing a lot. I wanted to show I was the bigger and stronger welterweight.”

Després 12 rounds the close nature of the fight yielded a split decision from the judges. One judge saw the fight 115-112 for Porter, overruled by two judges who saw it 116-111 per a Spence. In the ring after the fight, Spence was confronted and called out by former two-division champion Danny Garcia for a potential showdown next.

“It was a top dog fight tonight,” va dir García. “I want you next Errol. It was a tough rugged fight. Shawn Porter is a tough fighter. I’m here to say I want next.”

“My how the tables have turned,” va dir Spence. “I’ve told my team, you line them up, I’ll knock them down.”

The pay-per-view co-main event saw unbeaten David “El Bandera Roja” Benavidez(22-0, 19 KOs) regain the WBC Super Middleweight World Championship from two-time champion Antonio “El gos” Dirrell (33-2-1, 24 KOs) with a ninth-round TKO victory.

“Everything just fell in place perfectly,” va dir Benavidez. “From the suspension to all the big fights I’ve been in. All of that helped me out in this fight. I did not make a mistake or open myself up more than I needed to. I worked behind my jab and got the stoppage. Things are going to get better and get tougher and I’m ready for the challenge.”

The fight followed a similar pattern throughout, with Benavidez stalking his opponent looking to unload power shots, while Dirrell circled the ring looking to counter and keep him at bay with his jab.

Benavidez stayed in control through the early rounds, until Dirrell turned the tables momentarily in round four trying to batter Benavidez against the ropes, but he was unable to daze the 22-year-old.

In round six Benavidez broke through with a critical moment in the fight, landing a punch that opened up a cut over Dirrell’s right eye. With the blood pouring, the cut was immediately a problem for Dirrell, who now had limited vision to stop the incoming assault.

“He hit me with a clean shot,” dir Dirrell. “That’s my first time ever being cut by a punch. It opened up. There was nothing I could do about it. I couldn’t see the whole fight after that. My corner did a good job on it, but I really couldn’t see.”

Despite having his cut checked by the ringside physician in rounds six, seven and eight, Dirrell was able to use his veteran savvy to stay in the fight. As the fight went to round nine Benavidez increased his offense, slowing Dirrell down enough where he could tee off with power punches in the corner.

As Dirrell tried to navigate away from Benavidez’s offense, he began to take take more punishment and looked shaky on his feet. Referee Thomas Taylor officially stopped the fight 1:39 a la ronda, at the direction of Dirrell’s corner. Benavidez ended the fight with a 165 a 94 avantatge en cops de puny aterrats, with the biggest margin coming from his 101 power shots landed to just 41 from Dirrell.

“There are so many emotions coming at me at once,” va dir Benavidez. “We put so much hard work into this training camp. We left home and were away from everything. But I had the dream to become the youngest two-time super middleweight world champion and I made my dreams come true.”

“I would have kept going in there,” dir Dirrell. “I’m not quitting against anybody. Everyone saw I didn’t go down. My legs were still strong, but I couldn’t do anything about it.

“We’re going back to the drawing board. I’m still fighting. We won’t end on a loss. You can put anybody in there with me.”

Additional action saw undefeated Mario “Els asteques” Barris (25-0, 16 KOs) score a close unanimous decision victory over Batyr Akhmedov (7-1, 6 KOs) to capture the WBA Super Lightweight title in an action packed fight.

“I knew this was going to be a war,” said Barris. “He was getting dirty in there but the Mexican warrior in me was not going to let this opportunity pass me by. I dug deep and got the victory.”

The action began with Akhmedov trying to get inside against his taller opponent, while Barrios looked to move and punish Akhmedov with pot shots from the outside. En la quarta ronda, Barrios connected with a combo that stunned Akhmedov before Barrios followed up and scored a knockdown when Akhmedov’s glove touched the canvas.

“The plan was to gradually grow the activity,” said Akhmedov. “I knew that I had to win by a wide margin. After the first knockdown, I knew that I had to add activity more quickly than I had planned. So I started being more aggressive. I did everything I could to try to stop him.”

After surviving the round, Akhmedov picked up the aggression and began effectively closing the space down between his opponent. He began to land numerous clean left and right hooks that put Barrios on the defensive.

As the championship rounds neared, Barrios began to experience severe swelling in his left eye amidst the onslaught from Akhmedov. In the final round, Barrios was able to turn the tide back in his favor late in the frame. He delivered a pinpoint right hand that stunned Akhmdov and again forced him to put a glove on the mat.

After the knockdown, the fight went to the judges scores, who saw the fight 116-11, 115-11 i 114-112, tots a favor de Barris. The relentless pursuit after the first knockdown from Barrios ended with him holding a 238 a 135 avantatge en cops de puny aterrats, but it was not enough to sway the judges on this night.

“I promised my city of San Antonio that I would bring this title back home and I did it,” said Barris.

“The judges see better than I can from the ring,” said Akhmedov. “I did everything I could. Vaig pensar que vaig guanyar la lluita. They decided that he won the fight. When I watch the fight I’ll be able to tell you what it looked like. My job is to do everything to win. The judges are supposed to judge correctly.

“I tried to do everything I could. I was told that I wouldn’t be able to handle his experience, but he was on the ropes most of the fight. I beat him up and I thought I won the fight.”

The opening bout of the pay-per-view saw Josesito “The Riverside Rocky” López (37-8, 20 KOs) knock out John Molina Jr.. (30-9, 24 KOs) in the eighth round of their welterweight fight.

“We both carry power in our hands so it wasn’t a surprise someone went down,” va dir López. “It easily could have happened to me with the power he has. I was able to catch him early, find openings and get the finish.”

Lopez landed a critical blow on his first punch of the night, snapping off an overhand right that connected flush with Molina and put him on the canvas early in the first round. Lopez was patient following up and eventually landed a vicious body shot that put Molina down for the second time in the round.

Molina was able to rise to his feet and make it to the second round, and showed flashes that he might be able to change the tide of the fight. He slowed Lopez’s attack down in round two with a vicious combination of right and left hooks to the head.

“You can never take the fight out of a fighter,” va dir Molina. “I have a never say die attitude and I have my whole career. Va ser una baralla dura, but the better man won tonight.”

“I knew he wasn’t going to quit,” va dir López. “És un guerrer. I had to keep on the pressure. I was thinking that hopefully the ref and the team made the right call to finish it at the right time.”

Lopez stayed patient however and jabbed while looking to set up the right hand that had knocked Molina down in the first. In round seven Lopez broke through again, this time landing a perfect straight right hand that put Molia on the canvas late in the round.

After a long look from the ringside physician and his own corner, Molina tried to take his chance at a fight-changing punch in the eighth round. Early in the round, Lopez was able to land several big power shots that prompted referee Ray Corona to stop the bout 39 segons a la ronda.

“I wanted to keep going at the end,” va dir Molina. “I thought I was still coherent and could still move well. But you can’t go against what the referees say.”

“There’s a lot more ‘Riverside Rocky’ esquerra,” va dir López. “Robert Garcia has turned my career around. I’m a race car and like NASCAR, I’ve got a whole team behind me. I’m a top 10-level fighter. I’m going to give any fighter and any world champion a run for their money. I want memorable fights and I want the best.”

Watch Lopez drop Molina in round one en aquest lloc and round seven en aquest lloc.

The main event of prelims on FS1 saw former three-time world champion Robert “El Sant” Guerrero (36-6-1, 20 KOs) earn a unanimous decision victory over Jerry Thomas (14-2-1, 8 KOs) en la seva lluita de 10 aspeses de pes welter.

The early rounds were strategic, as Thomas relied on his movement while Guerrero looked to fire jabs patiently until he found opportunities for his power punches. Round three saw action jump up a bit as Guerrero landed a big straight left that pushed Thomas hard back into the ropes.

“I got some rounds in tonight, which was valuable,” va dir Guerrero. “We got what we needed and boxed our way to victory.”

Guerrero continued to stalk Thomas and attack the body as his opponent spent most of the fight set on circling the ring. No obstant això, in round nine, Thomas upped the presser and closed the distance on Guerrero. He landed numerous power shots that put Guerrero on the back foot.

It was Thomas’ best round of the fight, but he was unable to put Guerrero down or out and after 10 rounds the fight was in the judges’ mans. All three saw the bout in favor of Guerrero, pels comptes de 98-92 i 99-91 dues vegades.

“I want to get back into those bigger fights,” va dir Guerrero. “I moved around and stayed smart in there tonight. The goal was to stick to the game plan and I did until the end of the fight, but then I got right back on it. You just have to keep working out the kinks and that’s what I’m going to keep doing.”

In the opening prelims bout, unbeaten top prospect Joey Spencer (9-0, 7 KOs) scored a third-round stoppage of previously unbeaten Travis Gambardella (5-1-2, 2 KOs) in their super welterweight contest.

Spencer started the action early, leading with power shots while also controlling the distance between him and his opponent. A series of body shots put Gambardella down twice in the first round, although he was able to make it to the closing bell of the frame.

“The body shots weren’t really the plan going in,” said Spencer. “I started off with head shots and he was taking those well. I put one downstairs and I instantly saw it affect him badly. I knew it was a wrap. I was going to keep going to the body.”

Spencer landed a powerful straight right hand to Gambardella’s head early in round two and quickly followed up with a flurry punctuated by another body shot that dropped him for the third time in the fight. Although Spencer looked to close hard, Gambardella was able to fight intelligently and make it through another round.

“I thought the referee was going to stop it in the second round,” said Spencer. “When he let him go I took a deep breath and made sure not to punch myself out. I stuck to my jab and let the rest take care of itself.”

Early into round three, Spencer went back on the attack and connected with a big left hook to Gambardella’s head. Aquesta vegada, referee Ray Corona jumped in and halted the bout 53 segons a la ronda, giving Spencer the TKO victory.

“I’m so happy with the improvements that I was able to show tonight on the big stage,” said Spencer. “I’m really excited for what’s to come.”

Here is what the fighters had to say Wednesday from the Wilshire Grand Ballroom II at the Intercontinental Hotel:

ERROL SPENCE JR.

“I feel like all of my fights prepared me for this moment. Porter is not like Mikey Garcia. They have different styles and different mentalities. But there are a lot of distractions fighting at home and I feel like I overcame that to lead me to this point.

“I don’t make anything of the words he’s saying. We train hard and we’re focused and prepared for anything he brings Saturday night.

He’s been talking a lot, his dad’s been talking a lot and I’m going to shut him up. They’re going to call me the “show stopper’ after Saturday night.

“I’ve prepared for everything. It’s all about adjustments. I make them fast in the ring. People thought Kell Brook’s experience would help him but it didn’t at all. I can adjust to my opponent’s style and we will show it Saturday.

“Estic llest per anar. I never missed weight and I’m always professional. It’s just hard work and dedication. I’m going to be even more ripped and ready than I was against Mikey Garcia.

“This is going to be an amazing event come Saturday night. I will be the unified champion of the world. Shawn comes to fight and I embrace that. I can’t wait because I promise this is going to be one for the history books.

“I just have to do what I’ve been doing. I don’t care about the rounds as long as it doesn’t go 12.
I’m going to win and do it in dominating fashion.

“It’s important to me to get the knockout. It’s a goal of mine to stop him and I hope to get it done. If can’t get it done, then I’m just going to be comfortable with the victory. But you know I’m looking for the stoppage.”

SHAWN PORTER

“It’s the competitor in me to get at him any way I can. Until that bell rings, we’ll do whatever we need to do to let him know we’re really here to fight him.

“When you’re in there with a top level opponent, it’s supposed to be a close action packed fight. I have everything it takes to make each fight exciting when I step into the ring.

“Everyone has seen everything what I’ve done in my career. Everyone knows I can take a punch and I’ll be there from the first round to the last round. We’ll see what happens to Errol as the fight goes on.

“This is the best camp I’ve ever had. The nutrition and everything has been spot on. I’m ahead of schedule and that’s where I plan to stay. I expect to be eating Friday morning.

“I’m aggressive and I’m strong and guys can’t handle it. There are things that happen in the ring and you just have to move with it. I’m always ready to do whatever it takes to get the job done.

“I expected it to get heated today. I know that if I fire at Errol, he’s going to fire back. That’s how the fights going to be as well. Everyone got a good taste of what you’ll see Saturday.

“Being in the underdog position is literally where I come from. Northeast Ohio is always an underdog. Everybody works where I come from. We always do the best we can.

“The resume is for everyone else to compare and contrast. Per a mi, it’s all about who’s in front of me. I believe I have the right recipe to be the person to get the job done Saturday. I have the style to challenge him physically and mentally.

“We didn’t change too much of our program heading into this fight. For the second time we went down to Washington, D.C. for part of our camp.”

ANTHONY Dirrell

“The underdog or the favorite I’m always going to ”El gos’ no importa què. People can have their opinion on the odds, but it doesn’t play into my mentality at all for this fight.

“This is a fight that could very well steal the show on this pay-per-view. It’s an honor to be in this position. It’s a dream to be on a card like this defending my title.

“I have to see how it plays out, but age is just a number. You see Manny Pacquiao and fighters like that who went out and beat younger opponents. You have to be determined and still focused on the game.

“Experience is definitely a big key in this fight. I think that he has holes in his game and I’m going to expose it on Saturday night.

“The cut from my last fight won’t be an issue for this one. That fight was over six months ago, so if it’s going to heal, it should be healed. It doesn’t affect anything I’m doing in the ring.

“My training camp in Las Vegas was spectacular. It’s all about taking yourself out of your comfort zone and push yourself to the max to be successful at this elite level.

“I don’t think this fight is going the distance and I know I’m having my hand raised at the end. He got dropped with a jab and I hit harder than Ronald Gavril.”

DAVID BENAVIDEZ

“Estic molt motivat per aquesta baralla. I feel like I have another opportunity to not just get a title, but take it from a champion. He treballat molt dur per a aquesta baralla. Dirrell has never been knocked out and I’m taking the challenge to be the man who does it.

“This is the perfect time for this fight. I’m getting stronger every day. Dirrell feels like he has a lot to prove to the fans. So it’s going to be a war as long as it lasts.

This is going to be an amazing card. It’s a stacked card from beginning to end. I want to make a statement and steal the show.

“Dirrell is a great fighter and we’re both ready for what we’re going to do. There’s a respect between us, but I’m going for the knockout. Si no ho faig, he’s going to get a beating.

“I’m definitely going to make this weight class my home. I have no problem at all making weight. There’s a lot of great fights to be made at super middleweight and we’re going to stay here as long as we can get those fights done.

“As of right now, all of my attention is on Anthony Dirrell. We give him the respect he deserves because he’s a champion at the end of the day. It’s going to take my best to beat him and we’re looking forward to doing it.

“Dirrell has experience, plus some speed and power. He can change from orthodox to southpaw and has a lot of tricks in his book. He’s been in there with some good fighters. But what motivates me the most is that he’s never really been hurt and I want to be the first. I know when I put my hands on somebody, I can hurt them.”

Tickets for the September 28º esdeveniment, which is promoted by Man Down Promotions, TGB Promotions and Shawn Porter Promotions, ja estan a la venda i es poden comprar a AXS.com.

Here is what the fighters had to say Wednesday from Barry’s Boxing Gym in Las Vegas:

SHAWN PORTER

“Shawn Porter is going to leave the ring with two belts. I’m going to hit him. I’m going to hit him hard and I’m going to do things you’ve never seen anyone do against Errol Spence.

“I’m expecting there to be adversity for Errol. There’s going to be a moment where he realizes he’s losing this fight. He has to be solid psychologically. I don’t know if he’s going to be in the ring. I believe I have the advantage there and that I know how to get into his head.

“I think Errol’s confidence is natural like mine. But I think that he’s fed his confidence to the point where some arrogance has come out. I think he’s going to show that in the fight early on. He’s going to have to adjust. Once he recognizes that, I expect the arrogance to go out the window and that he’ll have to figure it out.

“I’ve never seen Errol go through any adversity in the ring. I don’t think anyone has been able to challenge him the way I can challenge him. Tinc moltes ganes de fer-ho.

“There’s a combination that comes from Shawn Porter that you can’t get anywhere else. It’s the speed, energia, agility and intelligence. You have to make a lot of adjustments on the fly and be ready. I’m hard to prepare for. Spence probably has one or two things that he’s expecting, but it’s not going to go that way.

“I’ve been in Errol’s position before and I know what it’s like to think that all I had to do was show up and be me. I’ve gotten to a point where I realize now that I have to do more.

“I don’t think there’s too much to figure out with Errol. The game plan is to make him make the adjustments. Things don’t always go to plan, but I still think I know what he wants to do in there. He’s not going to give you a lot to adjust to, but what he does do, he’s supreme and he’s great at.

“Southpaws always bring the best out of me. I’m young again. You’re going to see the best Shawn Porter.

“I think Errol has a lot more to lose in this fight. He’s never had to deal with a loss, and most people aren’t expecting him to lose. He’s in the perfect position being considered a top welterweight. But from my perspective, I just have absolutely no intention on losing.”

ANTHONY Dirrell

“This is going to be a good fight. David Benavidez is a warrior and I don’t take anything away from him. But I know that I have all the tools to beat him. He’s never fought someone like me. Everyone he knocked out, he was supposed to knock out.

“I have everything I need in my arsenal. I’m versatile. I can switch it up if I need to. If I need to sit in the pocket, I can. If I need to box, I can. I just don’t think Benavidez is what everyone makes him out to be.

“Vaig pel nocaut. I go for the knockout in every fight. If it doesn’t happen, I can still go 12 rounds and come out victorious.

“This win would build my legacy. Some people expect me to lose, and I’m happy about that. This just takes my career to another level.

“No estic mirant més enllà d'aquesta lluita. I’m focused on David Benavidez. After this fight I can talk about unification or whatever. Put first I have to take care of David.

“A loss is a loss no matter which way you put it. Whether you lose by a mile or half a round. That’s in the past and we’re only focused on the future. There’s an undefeated 22-year-old fighter trying to take what I’ve got.

“You put all the work in when you’re in the gym, then you have to leave everything in the ring. We trained too hard to not do that. Tinc molta confiança. Al final de la dia, the fans are going to win.

“I’ve seen Benavidez fight before. My coaches have watched him closely and will come up with the game plan. He’s quick, but we’ll be ready.”

ROBERT GUERRERO

“I feel great right now. Everything has been going smoothly and I can’t wait to just go to work out there. All the hard stuff is done, now it’s just maintaining and staying ready.

“Estic emocionat per aquesta oportunitat. I’m well prepared and ready to go. It’s like any other fight. You leave no stone unturned, execute your game plan and do what you have to do to win.

“The fans are going to get what they always get from me. vindré a lluitar, take care of business and leave everyone with something to remember.

“In a lot of my fights, I just walked guys down. I’ve had guys like Keith Thurman and Danny Garcia fighting just to hang in there, and I wasn’t even fighting to my full potential. I was just walking them down. But my skills are boxing, that’s how I fought at the lighter weights. I got away from what I was good at.”

IBF Champion Errol Spence Jr. Battles WBC Champion Shawn Porter In Highly-Anticipated 147-Pound Title Unification Match that Headlines a Premier Boxing Champions on FOX Sports Pay-Per-View Event Saturday, Setembre 28 des del Staples Center a Los Angeles

The Welterweight World Title Takeover Continues!

MÉS! Two-Time Champion Anthony Dirrell will Defend His WBC Super Middleweight Title Against Undefeated Former Champion David Benavidez in the Co-Feature

Entrades a la venda, Dilluns, Juliol 22 En 12 p.m. PT!

LOS ANGELES (Juliol 20, 2019) – Welterweight world champions collide when IBF Champion Errol “La Veritat” Spence Jr. clashes with WBC Champion“Temps De La Funció” Shawn Porter in a massive 147-pound title unification match headlining a Premier Boxing Champions on FOX Sports Pay-Per-View on Saturday, Setembre 28 at Staples Center in Los Angeles.

The co-feature of the evening will pit WBC Super Middleweight Champion Antonio “El gos” Dirrell against unbeaten former champion David “El Bandera Roja” Benavidez in an explosive 168-pound showdown.


Tickets for the event go on sale Monday, Juliol 22 a 12 p.m. PT and can be purchased at AXS.com.

“Errol Spence Jr. versus Shawn Porter in a welterweight unification match brings to mind some of the great 147-pound clashes of the past – Sugar Ray Robinson vs. Kid Gavilan, Leonard vs. Hearns or Whitaker vs. Chávez,” va dir Tom Brown, President de Promocions TGB. “Both men are in their primes and both like to apply pressure. With that clash of styles, something has to give. En la baralla co-estel·lar, Anthony Dirrell doesn’t want to give up the title and David Benavidez wants it back. Played out before an electric crowd at STAPLES Center in Los Angeles and headlining a PBC on FOX Sports Pay-Per-View, this show has instant classic written all over it.”

Spence vs. Porter represents a major step forward in the quest to find the best 147-pound boxer on the planet. Spence has declared that anyone who wants to make that claim will have to come through him. Porter has already faced the some of the biggest names in the division, including Keith Thurman and Danny Garcia, and will make Spence back up his boast.

The unbeaten Spence (25-0, 21 KOs) is a young, powerful welterweight who vaulted to the top of the welterweight scene with a punishing 11º round knockout victory over Kell Brook for the IBF championship in front of Brook’s hometown fans in Sheffield, England in 2017. Fighting out of Desoto, Texas, Spence has successfully defended the title three times. Most recently he scored a unanimous decision victory over three-division world champion Mikey Garcia in a PBC on FOX Pay-Per-View show before a hometown crowd at AT&Estadi T d'Arlington, Texas on March 16.

“Serà una baralla molt emocionant,” va dir Spence. “Shawn is never in a boring fight and I always entertain. It will be a ‘Fight of the Year’ type fight because our styles mesh. Shawn Porter is a guy who tries to rough you up. That’s what he’s always done. With Yordenis Ugas he tried to box and he said he didn’t like that style. He said he is going back to his original style. If he brings that style to me, it’s going to be a great fight because I’m going to bring it right back to him.”

The 31-year-old Porter (30-2-1, 17 KOs) is a two-time welterweight champion whose high-pressure style has served him well in his rise in the 147-pound division. Born in Akron, Ohio and now living in Las Vegas, Porter won the IBF welterweight title with a unanimous decision victory over Devon Alexander in 2013. He lost the title, which Spence now has, to Kell Brook by a majority decision in 2014. Porter moved back into the championship ranks with a unanimous decision victory over Danny Garcia for the vacant WBC title in 2018. He successfully defended the title with a split decision victory over Yordenis Ugas in March on FOX.

“There haven’t been too many fights as a professional that I’ve been this excited about,” va dir Porter. “I was really excited about the Danny Garcia fight and I’m really excited about this one. Ever since Spence got a belt, I really circled this fight on my calendar. Preparation is the key. I think I have everything it takes to beat Errol Spence. I’m very confident and my team is confident in what I have to do on September 28. We’ll be ready.”

Dirrell vs. Benavidez promises to be a hotly contested battle for the WBC Super Middleweight title. Dirrell is a two-time WBC 168-pound world champion and will bring experience, while Benavidez will bring his high-octane style.

The 34-year-old Dirrell (33-1-1, 24 KOs) won the WBC title for the first time with a unanimous decision over Sakio Bika in 2014. The native of Flint, Michigan lost the title the next year to Badou Jack by majority decision. He put together six straight victories after that loss to get back into position to fight for the championship again. He won the title with a technical decision victory over Avni Yildirim in February on FS1. Dirrell is the younger brother of Andre Dirrell, who won a bronze medal as a member of the U.S. Olympic boxing team in 2004.

“I’m going to work my butt off, putting in extra hours in the gym, because this is one of the toughest opponents I’ve ever fought,” Dirrell said. “He’s young and he’s tough. But I’m more than ready for anything that he can bring. I bring an exciting fight. He knows that. The world knows that. Ell pot parlar, but nothing matters but what happens in the ring. I wanted this fight to be out west because I will fight anybody anywhere. It’s only two people in the ring and we’re going to give a good entertaining fight for the fans.”

Benavidez (21-0, 18 KOs) won the WBC title with a split decision victory over Ronald Gavril in 2017. Lluitant fora de Phoenix, Arizona, Benavidez successfully defended the title with a more convincing unanimous decision over Gavril in the rematch four months later. The 22-year-old returned to the ring to score an impressive knockout victory over veteran J’Leon Love in March on the Spence vs. Garcia PBC on FOX Sports Pay-Per-View.

“I’m looking forward to reclaiming my WBC belt in my next fight against Anthony Dirrell,” va dir Benavidez. “This fight is overdue and I guarantee I will be ready for whatever he brings to the ring. The fans are really going to enjoy this one.”

ANTHONY DIRRELL DERROTA AVNI YILDIRIM PER DECISIÓ TÈCNICA DE GUANYAR EL TÍTOL DE SÚPER PES MITJÀ WBC EN L'ESCEPTE PRINCIPAL DELS PREMIER BOXING CHAMPIONS A FS1 & FOX DEPORTA DE L'ARMERIA DE MINNEAPOLIS, Minnesota

EL PREFERIT DE LA CIUTAT D'ABRIL JAMAL JAMES PUNTUA LA GUANYA TÈCNICA A KO JANER GONZALEZ

MINNEAPOLIS (Febrer 24, 2019) – Anthony Dirrell (33-1-1, 24 KOs) derrotatAvni Yildirim (21-2, 12 KOs)per decisió tècnica dividida (96-94 X 2 per Dirrell, 98-92 per Yildirim) pel Campionat del Món de pes súper mitjà del CMB vacant a l'esdeveniment principal de Premier Boxing Champions a FS1 i FOX Deportes de l'Armeria de Minneapolis. L'àrbitre Mark Nelson va aturar el partit a la desena ronda a causa d'un xoc accidental de caps i un tall a l'ull esquerre de Dirrell amb la decisió que va anar a les targetes de marcador..

“Em va molestar l'aturada perquè volia acabar la lluita com un campió,” dir Dirrell. “Se sent molt bé recuperar el meu cinturó WBC. Volem unir-nos contra Caleb Plant o qualsevol dels campions. Només me'n vaig a casa, prendre una mica de temps, parlem amb el meu campament i després anirem d'allà. Si la baralla de Benavidez ve trucant, jo lluitaré amb ell.

“Vaig pensar que estava guanyant aquesta lluita per més del que tenien els jutges,” va afegir Dirrell. “Jo l'estava punxant i estava aplicant una mica de pressió, però això és el que fa. Però vaig guanyar la lluita i això és tot el que importa.”

Natiu de Minneapolis Jamal James (25-1, 12 KOs) va aconseguir una victòria per nocaut tècnic agradable al públic Janer González (19-2-1, 15 KOs). A mig camí de la sisena estrofa, James semblava deixar caure a González amb un dret recte, però l'àrbitre Gary Miezwa ho va declarar un lliscament. A prop del final de la sisena ronda, James va aterrar un altre cop i aquesta vegada va comptar i va fer mal a González. Al final de la sisena ronda, González va anar a la seva cantonada i mai va sortir amb la declaració de la lluita com a aturada de sisena ronda, ja que González no va poder respondre el timbre de la setena ronda..

“Aquesta és la millor multitud davant la qual he lluitat mai,” va dir James. “Vam empaquetar aquest lloc. Mitjana de l'hivern, neu al nostre voltant i encara van sortir i van mostrar molt suport. Ni tan sols puc explicar la sensació de sortir aquí i parar (González). L'única pregunta que tinc és on és el meu cinturó? Estic tercer classificat a l'AMB. Keith Thurman va aconseguir el cinturó, Pacquiao va aconseguir el cinturó. Però amb tota honestedat, qui em doni aquesta oportunitat, hi intervinc amb ells.

“Em va donar una gran lluita, però al final del dia tenia massa a oferir i no es va poder aixecar,” va continuar en Jaume. “Només vaig mantenir el meu abast i vaig poder contrarestar-lo. I quan entrava, venia de veritat salvatge i s'obria a uns grans trets que vaig poder aprofitar.. La primera vegada que va caure vaig pensar que era una caiguda legítima, però l'àrbitre va ser un bon ref. Definitivament el vaig atrapar amb una bona combinació i un desagradable tir al cos per a la segona derrota. Després d'això, Sabia que això li va treure la resta de la lluita i tot el que havia de fer era acabar la feina.”

“Pensava que aquesta era una lluita molt important per a la meva carrera,” va dir González. “Estava molt content per aquesta lluita, simplement no em va anar a la meva manera. Vaig a lluitar de nou, encara que. Cada lluita és una experiència d'aprenentatge per a mi.”

El combat inaugural de FS1 i FOX Deportes va comptar amb una revanxa molt lluitada entre ellsJeison Rosario (18-1-1, 13 KOs) i Marcos Hernández (13-2-1, 3 KOs). Al febrer de 2018, els dos van lluitar per l'empat. A la represa, Rosario ha pogut aconseguir un nocaut tècnic amb l'àrbitre Celestino Ruiz aturant l'acció 2:45 al novè quadre. En el moment de la detenció, Hernández estava a la taula de puntuació del jutge Kyle Shiely (77-75) amb Rosario per davant en les targetes de puntuació dels jutges John Mariano i Tim Taggart (78-74, 77-75).

“Va baixar la guàrdia i va seguir cometent els mateixos errors,” va dir la Rosario. “Quan vaig veure l'oportunitat, El vaig deixar caure.

“La primera vegada que vam lluitar no estava preparat,” va afegir la Rosario. “Jo estava feble. Però de la primera lluita vaig aprendre què fer a la segona. Així el vaig treure.”

“Va ser una lluita estreta que podria haver anat en qualsevol sentit,” va dir Hernández. “Em va colpejar amb un bon xut. Em vaig aixecar i em vaig sentir bé. Només estava intentant esquivar alguns trets i em va colpejar amb l'esquerra. Estava disparant i jo hauria d'haver llençat enrere.

“Crec que l'àrbitre va aturar la baralla abans d'hora, però aquesta no és la meva feina,” va continuar Hernández. “Definitivament, donaria la benvinguda a una tercera baralla amb Rosario, encara que. Mai he tingut por de lluitar amb ningú, així que lluitar amb ell per tercera vegada no seria cap problema.”

A la Premier Boxing Champions a les preliminars FS2, Bryant Perrella (16-2, 13 KOs) va guanyar una decisió unànime (78-74, 79-73 X 2) sobre Breidis Prescott (31-16, 22 KOs).

“Estic molt content amb la meva actuació d'aquesta nit,” Said Perrella. “Em vaig sentir molt bé anant la distància. La meva resistència va ser fantàstica. Hauria estat molt més agressiu i hauria llançat cops més forts, però em vaig fer mal a la mà a la segona ronda i em va fer mal la resta de la lluita. Acabo d'utilitzar el meu jab i ring general per controlar la lluita i aconseguir la victòria.”

La serra de co-funcions FS2 Money Powell IV (9-0, 5 KOs) parar Javier Frazier (8-9-1, 4 KOs) per nocaut tècnic de la tercera ronda (2:03). Powell va aterrar 86 cops de puny en el combat, 36 dels quals eren al cos de Frazier.

“Aquest camp d'entrenament hem treballat moltíssims cops al cos,” va dir Powell. “Tinc la sensació que les preses al cos es descuiden avui en dia i les preses al cos paguen les factures, trencar-te molt ràpid.”

En el combat de swing FS2, Austin Dulay (13-1, 10 KOs) va anotar una derrota molt ràpida a la primera ronda de Yardley Cruz (24-13, 14 KOs) abans d'arribar a una parada de tercera ronda (:27).

“Només vaig escoltar els meus entrenadors i em van dir que fos un gos i que m'apropés,” va dir Dulay. “Vaig pensar que l'havia aturat amb aquella primera caiguda després de la campana d'obertura, però no volia precipitar-me en res perquè té molta experiència.

“Vull una represa amb Chris Colbert immediatament a l'abril 13 targeta aquí a l'Armeria,” va afegir Dulay. “Vaig tornar al campament després d'aquesta pèrdua, va esbrinar què estava malament, va aconseguir un nutricionista i es va traslladar a 135 lliura. Em sento millor que mai, així que definitivament estic preparat per a aquesta represa.”

En el combat televisiu d'obertura a FS2, Justin Pauldo (12-1, 6 KOs) va anotar una derrota i una parada a la primera ronda (1:17) contra Federico Malespina (16-11-2, 2 KOs) que no va poder continuar.

“Vaig aterrar amb una mà dreta sòlida i recta,” va dir en Pauldo. “El vaig veure caure de nou a les cordes i vaig saber que el tenia ferit. Així, Vaig tocar el cos i el vaig treure d'allà ràpidament.”

Això és el que va dir Hernández sobre el seu proper enfrontament i molt més:

En la seva represa contra Jeison Rosario:
“Vaig lluitar contra Jeison Rosario fa gairebé un any exactament. Li tinc molt respecte perquè vam lluitar per l'empat, però dit això, Vaig sentir que vaig superar ell. Aquest no és un combat de sis rondes com el nostre primer partit, aquesta és una lluita de deu rondes, i sé què cal fer per millorar la meva carrera amb la meva actuació en aquesta lluita.”

Al seu recent camp d’entrenament:
“M'agrada molt entrenar amb Henry Ramírez a Riverside, Califòrnia. Henry és un noi genial que ha entrenat molts lluitadors de primer nivell i sap el que es necessita per fer la feina. A Fresno hi havia moltes distraccions, així que m'allunya de la meva família, la meva dona i els meus fills, és un sacrifici que faig per passar al següent nivell. Aquesta és una feina i la tracte com una feina. Estic fent tot el possible per ser un contendent.”

En lluitar en aquest esdeveniment de PBC a FS1 i FOX Deportes:
“Estic molt emocionat perquè és la meva quarta vegada a FS1. M'encanta el que està fent Premier Boxing Champions per a l'esport de la boxa, portar baralles a la televisió en xarxa. FS1 m'ha anat bé i estic emocionat que una de les meves grans victòries sigui a FS1 perquè tothom la pugui veure.”

Sobre els seus gols per 2019:
“Vull romandre actiu, però el meu enfocament es centra únicament en Rosario i aconseguir aquesta victòria. Les meves esperances són entrar amb un lluitador amb un gran nom. He lluitat molts combatents durs, però encara no hi ha molts lluitadors de renom. Espero que a finals d'aquest any pugui lluitar contra un d'aquests lluitadors’ la gent ho veu a la televisió durant anys.”

Ell és un vingut lluitador davanter. Aquest és el tipus d'home amb el qual m'agrada lluitar. Està fet a mida jo. Faré el que millor faig i això és lluitar. He estat mantenint la meva ment, cos i ànima junts i mantenint-me concentrat per saber què he de fer per arribar a ser dues vegades campió del CMB.”
