TEAM SHIELDS GELUK DIE BOKS SE NUUTSTE SUPERSTER GELUK, CLARESSA SHIELDS, VIR DIE WEN VAN UNIFIED WÊRELD-TITELS IN VIERDE PROFEG

Skryf 'n opmerking
DETROIT (Augustus 8, 2017) – Claressa tweemalige Olimpiese goue medaljewenner “T-Rex” Shields became the unified WBC and IBF World Super Middleweight Champion last Friday night with a dominant fifth-round TKO of now former champion Nikki Adler.
Fighting in front of her home state fans at MGM Grand Detroit and in the main event of a nationally televised ShoBox: Die nuwe generasie, Shields put on a display of skills and power seldom seen by a first-time world-title challenger. Without any answers to the level of talent in front of her, Adler was forced to cover up and withstand the blazing speed of Shields’ fists for five one-sided rounds.
A driven competitor, Shields is on a mission to become the GWOAT (Greatest Woman of All Time) and the performance against Adler has the entire world watching. Four fights into her professional career and Shields is already the face of women’s boxing.
“It was a dream come true to win two world title belts in one night!” gesê Shields. “I was very proud of my performance, and I can’t wait to defend my belts and then give Christina Hammer her first defeat.”
For Team Shields, the victory was more than could ever be asked for from their young fighter.
“Congratulations to a unified world champion Claressa Shields!” said promoter Dmitriy Salita. “In less than a year as a pro, she has already achieved what no other woman has done in the sport. America’s first two-time Olympic Gold Medalist has become a professional unified world champion in just her fourth professional fight! Congratulations also to the great team behind her: jare lange afrigter Jason Crutchfield, Berston Field House, en aan haar bestuurders wat ywerig agter die skerms werk Mark Taffet en Jamie Fritz. Ek en almal by SP is trots en opgewonde om deel te wees van hierdie opwindende reis van 'n dame wat op soek is na GWOAT!”
Shields medebestuurder, Mark Taffet, 'n jarelange TV-bestuurder in boks, sê hy het nog nooit 'n vertoning gesien soos die een wat Shields teen Adler ingedien het nie. “Claressa Shields’ oorwinning oor Nikki Adler was die mees dominante vertoning wat ek nog in 'n kampioenskapgeveg gesien het, manlik of vroulik. Sy maak haar aanspraak om GWOAT te wees op skouspelagtige wyse. Claressa dra vroueboks op haar breë skouers vorentoe.”
Het hierdie jaar al drie keer baklei, twee streek- en twee wêreldtitelgordels langs die pad gewen, Shields says she will take some time to enjoy her historic accomplishments before plotting the next move with her team.

AMPTELIKE GEWICHTEN:

Nikki Adler: 166 Pond

Claressa Shields: 165¼ Pounds

Vladimir Tikhonov: 123¼ Pounds

Jesse Angel Hernandez: 123¼ Pounds

FINALE KWOTASIES:

 

NIKKI ADLER:

“This fight is very big in Germany, and I know there will be a lot of eye on me. It will be 4:30 in the morning, but there will be live streaming and viewing parties.

 

“I’m going to be defensive in the early going and know that Claressa is going to come forward. I want to get the fight into the later rounds. Dit is 10 rounds of boxing and there will be lots of action.

 

“I know I will be tough to knock out and have no plans of going down. Claressa has gotten all the hype so far and she wants to put on a show for her fans. I’m going to do everything I can to send those fans home upset after I beat her and carry those belts out of the ring.

 

“This is my second fight with my trainer Rene [Friese]. I wanted to train with the best and I need a trainer who had worked with the top fighters.

 

“My trainer has really been stressing strategies. We have a lot of them. The game plan is simple: Win the fight.

 

“Om vir die eerste keer in die Verenigde State te veg, gaan ongelooflik wees. Ek het net in Rusland en Duitsland geveg, so om hier te wees in ’n hoofgeleentheid op SHOWTIME is regtig spesiaal.”

CLARESSA SHIELDS:

“Ek voel dat ek baie gesonder en gehidreer is as wat ek geveg het 160. Ek is nie traag nie. Ek het 'n sjef gebruik wat my etes vir die eerste keer voorberei het en ek voel wonderlik.

 

“Ek weet al lank van Nikki Adler en Christina Hammer. Ek hou van albei die meisies, maar wanneer dit kom by om in die ring te kom, gaan dit alles oor besigheid.

 

“Tegnies sien ek dit [Nikki] is baie kalm en kalm. Sy is geduldig, maar nie te geduldig nie.

 

“Al is sy dalk die groter vegter, Ek weet ek is die aggressor. Ek dink ek kan haar in ses rondtes uitkry.

 

“Natuurlik wil almal die groot uitklophou kry, maar ek het nie die regte vuishou gekry wat die meisies laat uitklop nie. Ek is jonk so ek weet dit sal kom.

 

“Ek is bly Cyborg is hier om my te ondersteun. Sy slaan hard en ons het gespaar. Sy is sterk en sy is vinnig. Sy het baie van my opgetel, en ek het by haar geleer. Sy is die mees gevreesde MMA-vegter, en ek is die meeste gevrees in boks. Dit is dus wonderlik vir beide vroue se sportsoorte.”

 

VLADIMIR TIKHONOV:

“Dit is my eerste keer ooit in Amerika. Ek is redelik beïndruk daarmee. Daar is soveel om te doen en te sien, maar ek kan nie toelaat dat afleidings in die pad kom nie.

 

“Ek is al omtrent 'n maand hier en oefen by Kronk Gimnasium. Russian fighters are known for being very disciplined, and we know the opportunity that is in front of us. There is no room for slip ups and to get lazy. This is my big shot and I’m going to take advantage of it.

 

“The sparring has been the biggest thing. I’ve been sparring with pros and amateurs. It’s so much more powerful here and the variety is something I would never get at home.

 

“I can box and I can brawl. Whatever I have to do to get the win.”

 

JESSE HERNANDEZ:

“I had a layoff of about five years and worked construction jobs because I had to pay the bills, but now I’m back and focused on boxing.

 

“In the past I’ve been known to be too aggressive, so ek gaan dinge probeer vertraag en 'n meer taktiese bokser wees.

 

“Ek het ses broers wat professionele boksers was en ek het by hulle geleer. My bynaam is 'Die Een' want nou is ek die enigste wat baklei.

 

“Ek is die jongste van 15 kinders, almal met dieselfde ouers. Ons is 'n baie hegte gesin.

 

"Ek is 'n natuurlike regshandige en ek is gereed om teen 'n linkse soos Tikhonov te veg. Ek het 'n paar suidpote baklei en ek het met linkses gespartel.

 

“Hy is vir ’n rede onoorwonne. Ek dink nie hy was daar saam met iemand so taai soos ek nie; so aggressief soos ek is.”

 

RENE FRIESE, Adler se afrigter

“Ons het al die pad hierheen gekom om die gordels terug te bring na Duitsland.

 

“Ons het ons plan en ons strategie in plek. Ons is gereed vir hierdie stryd.”

 

JASON CRUTCHFIELD, Shields se afrigter

“Daar is nie veel praatjies vir hierdie geveg nie. Ek het vir haar gesê jy moet jou vuiste laat praat. Jou mond kan jou nie help in die ring nie.

 

“Ons is gereed vir 10 rondes. Ek gaan nie sê dit is moeilik nie; dit is uitvoerbaar. Dis haar eerste keer wat sy dit doen. Ons het daarvoor opgelei en sy was 10 drie of vier keer oefenrondes.”

Q&A MET CLARESSA SKILDE

Skryf 'n opmerking

TWEEMAAL OLIMPIESE GOUE MEDALJE, VEG VOLGENDE WEEK VIR EERSTE WÊRELD TITEL, KLINK AF OP OPPONONENT NIKKI ADLER EN Stygende BEROEMDE STATUS
DETROIT (Julie 28, 2017) – Twee keer Olimpiese goue medaljewenner Claressa “T-Rex” Shields (3-0, 1 KO) sê sy is in die vorm van haar lewe om die heersende WBC Super-middelgewig-wêreldkampioen aan te durf Nikki Adler (16-0, 9 Uitklophoue) van Duitsland volgende Vrydag, Augustus 4, by die MGM Grand Detroit.
Shields sal uitdaag vir haar eerste wêreldtitel in die 10-ronde hoofbyeenkoms van Salita Promotions’ “SLAG VAN DIE BESTE” gebeurtenis, wat regstreeks op televisie uitgesaai sal word ShoBox: Die nuwe generasie (10:30 namiddag. EN/PT).
Shields sê sy word nie deur Adler se onlangse opmerkings geratel nie, dat die Verenigde State gereed moet wees vir hul goue meisie om haar eerste verlies te neem. In werklikheid, sy het nooit geratel nie. Sy gee ook haar gedagtes oor haar onlangse Twitter-oorlog met 'n ander top vroulike vegter.
Gee my jou gedagtes oor Nikki Adler se opmerkings oor die VSA wat gereed is vir haar om jou te klop.
Nikki moet haarself oppomp, so sy sal baie sê die week van die geveg. Die VSA is reg reg… gereed vir sy 2x Olimpiese goue medaljewenner om haar eerste pro-wêreldtitel te wen!
Intimideer dit jou of laat dit jou harder oefen wanneer 'n teenstander op hierdie manier praat?
Ek is nog nooit deur iemand geïntimideer nie. Ek het al erger dinge vir my gesê, Ek was van plan om Nikki te straf of sy nou gemors praat of nie.
Praat met my oor die druk rondom hierdie geveg. Jy gaan so vroeg vir jou eerste wêreldtitel met die hele wêreld wat kyk.
Ek het altyd die hele wêreld wat kyk. Sommige mense wil hê ek moet wen en sommige wil die teenoorgestelde hê! Maar ek weet wat ek kan doen, Ek gaan dit net doen en domineer soos altyd. Geen druk nie!
Vertel my van die wen van al hierdie toekennings en kom selfs verder na die voorpunt van nasionale celebrity.
Om toekennings te wen is wonderlik; om erken en gerespekteer te word, is ook wonderlik. Ek het iets gedoen wat geen ander persoon in Amerika gedoen het nie, I’m the GWOAT!
Do you do anything different in training for a world title fight?
Ja, you focus more, recover more, spar more rounds, and drink plenty of water! I’ve never been more ready!
Do you believe Nikki Adler has never watched you fight?
Moenie, I don’t believe she hasn’t ever watched me fight. That’s all mind games! She wants me to believe that. But in all honesty, nothing on the internet can help her in a fight against me!
Do you dislike her now?
(Laughs) Dislike is for emotional females! I love her! I’m gonna kick her ass! And give her a big thank you after.
Tell me about your Twitter feud with (fellow top female boxer) Layla McCarter. What’s going on there?
Layla McCarter talks too much. For no reason. I didn’t have a problem with her at first, maar sy is net ontsteld omdat ek sê ek is P4P! En dit is die waarheid. Sy is net in ontkenning! Die een oomblik ondersteun sy my en die volgende oomblik kom sy na my toe. In haar onderhoud nadat sy Szabados geslaan het, 'n meisie wat ek in die vorige ronde TKO'd het, sy sê sy kan kom na 160 en my geslaan. Dan wanneer ek rekwisiete kry, of erkenning, daar sê sy weer net gladde goed. Ek moes haar dit laat kry.
Wat sal jou filosofie as wêreldkampioen wees as jy wen?
Ek doen nie 'as' nie.’ WANNEER ek wêreldkampioen word, my filosofie sal wees om so groot te wees dat selfs jou vyande my sal begin liefhê. God was my rots vir baie jare. Hy sê 'wees nederig teenoor hom,’ wat ek is! Maar ek hoef nie nederig teenoor die mens te wees wanneer ek oor my Godgegewe vermoë praat nie.
Om die beeldsending oop, undefeated world-ranked super bantamweight Vladimir Tikhonov (16-0, 9 Uitklophoue) of Russia will face Texas slugger Jesse Angel Hernandez (8-1, 6 Uitklophoue) over eight tough rounds between southpaws.

I learned from the past and I’m ready to use my skills and experiences to showcase a level of boxing that true fight fans want to see: spoed, krag, and footwork that has taken me a lifetime to develop. My speed and strength are there and I will showcase this when I am under the lights on Augustus 4.”
