“I’m war-ready,” Nieves said. “I’m excited to finally showcase my skills on the big stage and let the boxing world know that I have graduated to contender. I feel many don’t see that I’m one of the best 118-pounders out there.

“I am looking to follow the heritage of great Mexican fighters from Tijuana and bring this win and title back home. I am coming to win. Get ready for war.“
Menard vs. Mamadjonov
The co-main event features promising Louisiana lightweight “Rock Hard Mighty” Mason Menard facing his toughest test to date in Bahodir “Baha” Mamadjonov of Houston, Texas by way of Uzbekistan for the WBO NABO Lightweight Title. Both fighters are making their second appearance onShoBox: Die nuwe generasie.
Menard, an eight-year pro at the age of 27, is fighting outside of his native Louisiana for only the second time. He’s is ranked among the Top 15 fighters at 135 pounds in the WBA and WBO. In the most noteworthy victory of his career, he made his ShoBox debut at Turning Stone Casino & Resort last April 15 delivering an impressive Knockout of the Year candidate over previously undefeated Dominican Eudy Bernardo with a vicious one-punch knockout. VIDEO: http://s.sho.com/1NtEYjW
Menard floored Bernardo for the first time in his career with a series of rights near the end of the second round. Bernardo beat the count and finished the round, but he had no answer for Menard’s power. With less than one minute left in third, Menard connected with a huge right, knocking Bernardo out before he even hit the canvas.
Mamadjonov (19-2, 11 Uitklophoue), has been matched against very tough opposition throughout his career. His only blemishes were to opponents with a combined record of 46-0 (38 Uitklophoue) – Colombiaanse Darleys Perez in Aug., 2012 and Ghana’s Richard Commey in April of last year. Perez went on to become interim WBA Lightweight World Champion and recently lost a rematch against world champion Anthony Crolla. Commey is set to fight Robert Easter Jr. for the vacant IBF World Lightweight Title on Sewe. 9.
This is Mamadjonov’s third start since losing to Commey and his secondShoBox voorkoms. In sy ShoBox debuut in April, 2013 in Las Vegas, Nev., Mamadjonov scored an upset ninth-round stoppage (:51) against previously unbeaten Cuban prospect Angelo Santana. VIDEO:http://s.sho.com/2aPfkwp
Nieves vs. Santiago
Also featured in the Aug. 19 quadrupleheader are WBO NABO Bantamweight Champion Antonio Nieves and his new foe, Alejandro “Peque” Santiago
Nieves, (16-0-1, 8 Uitklophoue), a prospect at 118 pond, has stayed active with five fights in 2014, five in 2015, and is fighting for the third time this year. The 29-year-old is coming off his first 10-round performance, a unanimous decision over then once-beaten Oscar MOJICA op Junie 18 in Washington, Pa. A win against Santiago will put Nieves a step closer to his goal of challenging fellow Ohio-native WBA Super Bantamweight Champion Rau'shee Warren.
Santiago, (11-2-1, 3 Uitklophoue), van Tijuana, Baja California, Mexiko, is a three-year pro who seldom breaks training camp between fights. He has won three fights in a row since his last loss in November 2014 to fellow Mexican Hector Flores. In sy laaste stryd op Februarie. 27, Santiago won an eight-round unanimous decision over Mario Lara. This will be his United States debut and the first time he’s fought north of 116 pond.

This is what the Miller, Eyubov and promoter Dmitriy Salita said Tuesday:
JARRELL “BIG BABY” MILLER
On Training Camp…
“Training camp is going real well. I put on a lot of muscle for this camp, I’m going to put on a lot of solid mass, I am going to go in there and manhandle it. Like a chew toy in a dog’s mouth, I want to mangle it.
“I’m really committed to this training camp. I’ve made some changes: less cheeseburgers. I cut down from three cheeseburgers to one cheeseburger a day. Same thing, in the gym every day, not doing anything different. My main thing is my strength and my speed and we are going to see, soos Augustus. 19."
On His Opponent, Fred Kassi…
“Supposedly Fred Kassi is the most durable guy I have fought in my whole entire boxing career. This is what they are saying and I tip my hat off to the guy; he’s been in some fights where I thought he won and he ended up on the wrong side of the decision. When he fought other fighters, he had three weeks training camp, two weeks’ notice. He had two months to get ready for this. I’m not a last-minute opponent. He’s going to come in ready and I’m not about to underestimate him.
“I’m a boxer-puncher and he’s more one-dimensional. He switches back and forth, he’s not pretty at what he does, but no worries, you can look at me, because I am nice at what I do.
I predict a fifth-sixth round knockout. Kassi is definitely a doable guy, but I feel once he sees my size and my pressure and the speed that I bring with my footwork – it’s going to be game over for him. I know for a fact I’m going to knock out Fred Kassi, fifth or sixth round. Dit is wat ek doen, I take your heart, I take your soul, I take your ribs.”
On Deontay Wilder…
“Wilder is a wild man when he gets in that ring, but at the same time if you watch how he performs, he performs at a mediocre level against mediocre fighters. If you stick him to a world professional athlete, like myself or top guys, you’ll see him bring even more. Not saying he hasn’t been in the ring with A+ fighters yet, but you can see all his loopholes in his fighting style. It’s just a matter of time before he gets really exposed and I hope it is with me because I want that behind.
“Shorter fighters do what they do, taller fighters do what they do. Deontay is tall but he doesn’t do what his body is designed to do; he’s trying to do something that smaller guys do, so that is going to be his downfall. Soos ek gesê het, it is just a matter of time and I am going to break him in half, him and his toothpick legs.
“I was watching the livestream of the Wilder-Arreola fight and it was horrible. It was horrible because he is the heavyweight champion of the world. He doesn’t understand that he is doing more damage to himself than he thinks he is. He’s getting hurt. He’s getting hit. He’s taking some punishment.
“I want to fight Wilder. If he sees my style, if he sees my footwork, he’ll realize I’m no Arthur Pin of Chris Arreola. And when I get in there, goed, most of my fights end up in knockouts. Ek is 100 percent power. Once I touch them, they are getting hurt.”
On Anthony Joshua…
“Joshua is overrated, overhyped. I am going to break that jaw of his. Definitely one of the weakest of the heavyweight champs.
“It comes down to the basics. You have a lot of guys that have a lot of punching power and basic skills and that’s not enough. Joshua is a basic heavyweight, a one-two fighter. I could cut that half way across the ring.
“I’d fight Joshua when the timing is right. I personally don’t want to go and fight Joshua just because I’m his ‘next.’ I think that when the time is right, it’ll be me and him at the MGM Grand on pay-per-view. One of those super sweepstakes fights, you know.”
On Tyson Fury…
“I like Tyson Fury, I still want to break his fingers in half but he is good for the sport of boxing and I feel like me and him for a main event will sell any arena out. He talks a lot of smack and he does back it up, but he is still a jokester and I am real. I will smash him if he tries to step on me in the press conference. I will knock him out, same way I will for everyone else.
“A fight between us two will be like Comedy Central on steroids, it would be bananas. It would sell out kind of like a Mayweather-Pacquiao … I feel like we can capture the heavyweight division and put it back on the map, just because of the way he talks. As an American heavyweight I feel like we have to take over American soil first. I’ll fight anywhere and anytime, but on the business side, I have to take over my country first.”
On the Heavyweight Division…
“They better get motivated now because I’m coming. I’m hungry and I’m motivated. SHOWTIME is having me on the main event on national television. I’m telling you I’m coming, and I’m coming to stay. They better get ready.
“I’m different to all the heavyweights out there. I’m not chasing a pay day. I’m chasing a legacy. I’m trying to change the layout. I’m trying to change the game. I’m trying to change my future and make history at the same time.”
BAKHTIYAR EYUBOV
“I have had hard training camps before, but this is up there. It’s one of the most intense camps I’ve ever had. I know that people expect me to deliver another knockout, but I’m training to go the distance. I’m scheduled to go 10 rounds and I am preparing myself as best as I can.
“My opponent is an experienced and tough fighter. Perhaps my toughest test to date. I’m confident in my skills. He can run, but he can’t hide. There are only four corners, I’ll find him and I’ll do what I came here to do: win.”
DMITRIY SALITA
“It is a great honor to be able to promote a show on SHOWTIME and both of these fighters. Miller and Eyubov are both willing to show that they are some of the best in their respective divisions.
“It is going to be a great event, happening at a special venue in Rochester at the soccer stadium, outside in the summer time. The show has all the ingredients to be a key event of the summer.”
UNDEFEATED AMERICAN HEAVYWEIGHT JARRELL MILLER TO FACE TOUGH VETERAN FRED KASSI ON FRIDAY, Augustus. 19 IN MAIN EVENT OF SHOBOX: Die nuwe generasie
Tripleheader from Rhinos Stadium in Rochester, N.Y.. Airs Live at 10 namiddag. EN/PT op Showtime®

NEW YORK (Junie 30, 2016) – Undefeated heavyweight Jarrell Miller claims he’s America’s top heavyweight prospect. “Big Baby” will get a chance to back up his boast when he faces his toughest test to date in veteran Fred Cat in die belangrikste gebeurtenis van ShoBox: Die nuwe generasie op Vrydag, Augustus. 19.
The confident and hard-hitting Miller (17-0-1, 15 Uitklophoue) and the durable and vastly experienced Kassi (18-5-1, 10 Uitklophoue) will headline a tripleheader live on Showtime by 10 namiddag. EN/PT from the outdoor soccer venue Rhinos Stadium in Rochester, N.Y..
Two undefeated young bantamweight prospects will square off in theShoBox co-feature as world-ranked Nikolay Potapov (14-0-1, 6 Uitklophoue) en Antonio Nieves (16-0-1, 8 Uitklophoue) meet in a 10-round bantamweight bout.
In die opening bout van die beeldsending, undefeated welterweight knockout artist Bakhtiyar Eyubov (10-0, 10 Uitklophoue) will face battle-tested veteran Karim Mayfield (19-3-1, 11 Uitklophoue) in a 10-round match.
Tickets for the event presented by Salita Promotions go on sale Vrydag by Middag ET en is beskikbaar by http://www.rhinossoccer.com/en http://www.etix.com
“This is an amazing opportunity. I’m in the main event going against a tough opponent, and he’s definitely game to fight,"Miller het gesê. “I’m ready to put his lights out like I do everybody else. I know he’s durable and a little older than me. He’s a tough guy and he can take a beating. Sover, he’s only been stopped once. I’ll be the second.
“I’m going back to basics in this camp. I’m an advanced fighter, but there are a couple of things I’ve wanted to work on. It’s easy for heavyweights to rely on power and forget about technique. You see what happened to Dominic Breazeale against Anthony Joshua? His power didn’t mean jack because there was no technique behind it. I want to be the kind of fighter who puts his technique first and power last.”
“I approach Jarrell like all young fighters,” Kassi said. “I’m a seasoned pro that has fought top-tier opponents. Jarrell will have to bring his ‘A game’ against me. He’s got size and power, but it’s nothing I haven’t seen. I’m tired of getting robbed by judges like in El Paso (against Chris Arreola), and in Alabama (against Dominic Breazeale). That should have been me fighting Anthony Joshua in The O2. Teen (Hughie) Fury, the cut saved him. Another round or two and he would have been done. Then we heard what we always hear, ‘oh, Fury had a bad night, so did Breazeale, so did Arreola.’ They all seem to have ‘bad’ nights when I’m in the other corner. I’m hoping to actually get some credit when Miller has a ‘bad’ night too. I’m a heavyweight boxer, that’s boxer underlined. I move my feet, I use angles, I hit and don’t get hit. That’s boxing and it’s my art. Boxing fans are going to have a great time watching me dismantle a giant.”
“I am very happy to be back on SHOWTIME fighting the best opponent of my career,” Eyubov said. “I know this will be my hardest fight to date and that’s what motivates me. I am grateful that I am getting an opportunity to prove myself and I want to show that I am ready for the best fighters in the world. I am ready for the boxing world to know my name. Augustus 19, Karim Mayfield, here I come.”
“This will be a special event at Rochester Rhinos soccer stadium. We have America’s brightest heavyweight contender in Jarrell ‘Big Baby’ Miller and a knockout sensation out of Brooklyn by way of Kazakhstan in Bakhtiyar ‘Bakha’ Eyubov,” promoter Dmitriy Salita gesê. “This show has all the ingredients to be one of the most talked about boxing events of the summer, and we think Miller has all the skills and charisma to break through in the heavyweight division. I am grateful to SHOWTIME and Rhinos Stadium that boxing fans will witness talented fighters in their toughest fights to date. I look forward to an explosive night of boxing.”
“Wendy and I are so excited to be hosting both SHOWTIME and the fighting debut of Jarrell ‘Big Baby’ Miller at Rhinos Stadium,"Sê Wendy en David Dworkin, owners of the Rochester Rhinos soccer stadium. "Augustus 19 will be a great opportunity to showcase our stadium and the City of Rochester to a nationwide audience.”
The menacing Miller, a 6-foot-4 Brooklyn, N.Y.. moedertaal, is a consensus top 15 heavyweight – he’s ranked No. 8 in die WBO, Moenie. 9 in the WBA and No. 14 in die IBF. The 27-year-old former professional kickboxer has knocked out six consecutive opponents as he’s risen through the rankings as one of America’s top heavyweight hopes. Prior to Miller’s knockout of Nick Guivas op Mei 27, his previous two fights were onShoBox – a third round destruction of Akhror Muralimov last October and a knockout of Donovan Dennis in January in which he was pushed to the seventh round for the first time.
Kassi has been in with some of the most recognizable names in the heavyweight division, insluitend Amir Mansour, Dominic Breazeale en Hughie Fury. The 36-year-old fought to a disputed majority draw with three-time world title challenger Chris Arreola last July on PBC on CBS in which most ringside observers, insluitend ShoBox ontleder Steve Farhood, had Kassi winning by a wide margin. The New Orleans resident has been stopped just once – in 2014 by Mansour – and stands as an excellent barometer for Miller’s progression as a legitimate contender.
The fast-rising Potapov, of Potolsk, Rusland, is ranked in the top 15 in three of the four sanctioning bodies (Moenie. 7 WBO, Moenie. 13 IBF, Moenie. 14 WBA) after just 15 professionele gevegte. A former amateur standout with over 200 gevegte, the 25-year-old Potapov has already gone at least 10 rounds seven times since turning professional in 2010. The only blemish on his record is a draw with undefeated prospect Stephon Young in sy laaste stryd op April 15 op ShoBox.
Coincidently, the only blemish on Antonio Nieves’ record is a 2015 draw with Stephon Young. The 29-year-old is coming off his first 10-round performance, a unanimous decision over then once-beaten Oscar MOJICA Junie 18. The Cleveland, Ohio native will face his toughest opponent to date in fellow unbeaten Potapov in the matchup of unbeaten bantamweights.
The Brooklyn-based Eyubov has passed every test he’s faced, and knocked out all of his opponents in the process. The 29-year-old native of Kazakhstan is coming off an impressive third-round stoppage of veteran Jared Robinson last January on ShoBox. Eyubov will step up his level of opposition when he faces Karim Mayfield, a 35-year-old veteran who owns wins over Mauricio Herrera en Steve Forbes and has never been stopped in 23 gevegte.

Andre Ward (27-0, 14 KO se) – Olimpiese goue medalje en WBA Middelgewig Super World Champion
"Ek het nie hierdie gevoel gevoel, veg week in Oakland, in 'n rukkie. Verlede week daardie emosies begin in te stel. Ek het gefokus en gereed, maar stryd week is net anders. Maak nie saak die grootte van die stryd wat jy moet voel soos hierdie. Ek is opgewonde. Ek is gewoond aan hierdie soort van druk. "
"Smith is 'n Europese kampioen. Hy het nie 'n probleem te reis. Hy gee nie om as hy bloei. As jy hom klop, hy kom om te wen, en dit is hoekom ons hom opgetel. Ons het hom nie te kies, want daar was niks sagte omtrent hom. Ons het hom, want hy is 'n moeilike mededinger. Ek is bly dat almal van 'n skielike hy begin praat soos hy gedoen het verlede week. Ek was amper om aanstoot dat hy niks sê nie. Ek is so gewoond aan ouens praat baie. So, hy uiteindelik begin praat en ek lief dit. Dit is nie dat ek nodig het meer motivering, maar dit is net 'n bietjie ekstra. "
"Ek kom terug af van twee losgelaat. Gedurende die afgelope kamp, Ek het 'n baie beter as wat ek in die verlede. Ek het nog meer gedoen. My skouer voel sterker en ek dink jy al gaan om te sien dat op Saterdag nag. "
"Elke vegter het hul eie persoonlike stryd. Jy kan nie voorspel wat die uitdagings en stryd gaan wees en jy kan nie voorspel hoe lank hulle gaan wees. Ek was in staat om te volhard deur daardie. Paul Smith is nie net veg Andre afweer van 'n agt week kamp, hy veg Andre Ward af van alles wat ek het net deur. Al die frustrasies, al die vertragings, al daardie emosies ... hy veg dat die man kom Saterdag nag. "
"Elke stryd vir my is 'n Super Bowl. Ek het nie verlore in 'n baie lang tyd. Ons berei vir alles wat Paul Smith gaan hê en alles wat hy gaan na die tafel te bring. Dit is 'n pragtige ding wanneer veg week kom rond en jy weet dat jy nie enige hoeke het sny. Elke rep getel vir my in hierdie kamp. Elke ronde getel my. Ek gestoot afgelope wat my afrigter wou my om te doen. Daar was niks lig oor hierdie kamp. Ek hoor kamp Smith se praat baie oor ring roes en as dit is wat hulle is die bank op, Hulle het die verkeerde wedstrydplan kom Junie 20. "
"Die spel plan is om razzle, dazzle, wees plofbare en doen dit alles. Ek het om bewus te wees as 'n professionele. Virgil het my hele kamp "Daar is geen game plan vir Paul Smith het. Laat dit kom na jou. Jy is boks lank genoeg dat wanneer jy in die ring sal jy weet wat om te doen. "Ons sal aanpassings te maak langs die pad, maar daar is nie 'n spesifieke wedstrydplan vir Paul Smith. Ek dink jy gaan alles kom Saterdag nag sien. Ek is nie van plan om dit af te dwing. Ek gaan net om dit te laat vloei. "
"Dit is 'n groot dorp stryd tyd. Dit is nie net Oakland. Dit is San Francisco. Dit is Haywayd. Dit is Stockton. Dit is al die omliggende stede. Enige tyd wat hulle het een van hul eie in die voorpunt, hulle ondersteun en dit is wat ek graag oor die Bay Area. "
Paul Smith (35-5, 20 KO se) – Voormalige wêreld Titel Challenger
"Die laaste groot gym sessie ek gehad het, was die afgelope Vrydag. Alles wat ek kon moontlik gedoen gebeur het tydens my oefenkamp. Die laaste week is al oor die ontspannende, rus, om jou energie vlakke en jou gewig af. "
"Wanneer [afrigter] Joe [Gallagher] kry in [om Oakland], ons sal gaan sit en hy sal uitwys dinge dadelik dat ons nodig het om uit te werk ... wat moet stoot, die game plan. Konsentreer op die game plan en taktiek. Ons sal kyk bande van Wyk en dissektering hulle. "
