MIAMI(Junho 7, 2021) - Excelente boxe de todos os temposFloyd "Money" Mayweathere sensação nas redes sociaisLogan “The Maverick” Paulfought to the distance in their eight-round special exhibition bout Sunday night that headlined a SHOWTIME PPV from Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens.
“Ele era forte, tough and better than I thought he was,” said Mayweather. “I was surprised by him tonight. That was some good little work.”
“It’s an honor to share the ring with Floyd,” said Paul. “He’s one of the GOATs. This is one of the coolest things ever.”
After weeks of buildup, the star-studded event pitted superstars from two different worlds in a highly anticipated showdown for sports and entertainment fans around the globe.
Mayweather displayed his typical patient and clinical boxing style, feeling out Paul in the opening round, antes de permitir que Paul avançasse com uma enxurrada de tiros poderosos no final da rodada que foram bloqueados em sua maioria, mas animou a multidão, no entanto. Conforme a luta avançava, Mayweather começou a encontrar um local para acertar vários tiros poderosos na cabeça e no corpo de Paul.
Apesar de sofrer punição nas rodadas intermediárias, Paul foi capaz de usar sua vantagem de peso de mais de 30 libras para frequentemente amarrar Mayweather e evitar ser parado ou enviado para a tela.
“Mesmo sem muita experiencia, ele sabia usar seu peso para me amarrar esta noite,” said Mayweather.
Após a luta, os lutadores expressaram gratidão e inspiração aos fãs que os ajudaram a alcançar as alturas que permitiram que esta partida se tornasse realidade.
“Eu me diverti esta noite,” said Mayweather. “Agradeço a todos os fãs que vieram, vocês são todos inacreditáveis.”
“Eu não quero que ninguém me diga que algo é impossível de novo,” said Paul. “O fato de eu ter chegado aqui com um dos maiores boxeadores de todos os tempos, isso prova que as probabilidades podem ser superadas. Qualquer um pode vencer as adversidades e fazer grandes coisas na vida. Esta é uma das melhores noites da minha vida, Estou feliz. "
No co-evento principal, ex-campeão mundial de duas divisõesBadou Jack(24-3-3, 14 KOs)entregou uma paralisação dominante na quarta rodada de invencíveisDervin Hill(15-1, 13 KOs)em seu duelo de meio-pesado.
“O plano de jogo era apenas colocá-lo na caixa de saída,”Disse Jack. “Todo o resto virá. Definitivamente, acertar o corpo. Ele era um pouco mole no corpo, mas eu o respeito. Ele saiu em curto prazo. Ele deveria lutar na próxima semana, mas este é um nível diferente. ”
Conhecido como um iniciador lento ao longo de sua carreira bem sucedida, Jack saiu mais rápido nesta luta e foi afiado desde o início contra o adversário substituto Colina, que substituiu Jean Pascal depois que Pascal falhou em um teste de drogas antes da luta.
“Ele estava tentando segurar muito e sobreviver,”Disse Jack. “Eu luto melhor quando luto contra adversários melhores. Eu fui um pouco desleixado. As lutas de classe mundial são quando eu tenho o melhor desempenho. ”
A eficácia de Jack forçou Colina a tentar segurar para impedir o ataque, mas ele só foi capaz de usar essa estratégia brevemente, como árbitro Frank Santore Jr. tirou pontos por segurar nas rodadas dois e três, avisando Colina que mais uma infração encerraria a luta em desclassificação.
Na quarta rodada, Jack acertou uma direita direta que colocou Colina no tatame no minuto inicial do quadro. Colina lutou bravamente para permanecer na luta, mas o ataque corporal de Jack o ajudou finalmente a ganhar a paralisação. Uma combinação no corpo derrubou Colina pela segunda vez e uma contra-mão direita derrubou Colina pela terceira e última vez, quando o árbitro interrompeu a luta em 2:57 na rodada.
“Eu sou um cara grande e ando pesado, então eu posso subir para cruiserweight,”Disse Jack postar luta sobre seus planos futuros. “Meu objetivo é me tornar um campeão de três divisões e luto melhor quando não tenho que perder muito peso.”
A transmissão de pay-per-view também viu competidores veteranosLuis Arias(19-2-1, 9 KOs)obter uma vitória por decisão dividida sobre o ex-campeão unificado de 154 libras“Swift” Jarrett Hurd(24-2, 16 KOs)em um evento cheio de ação de 10 rodadas.
“Não tenho certeza do que deu errado esta noite,”Disse Hurd. “Eu acredito que ganhei a luta. Eu tive um knockdown. Eu poderia inventar uma centena de desculpas, mas não foi um ótimo desempenho. ”
Arias controlou as primeiras rodadas do duelo, atacando Hurd com várias combinações que acertaram em cheio. Seu poder de perfuração limpo foi uma vantagem em todo, quando ele acertou Hurd em socos poderosos por um total de 153 para 120 enquanto pousa sobre 40% dessas fotos.
“O plano do jogo era saltar sobre ele, obter a liderança inicial e mantê-la,”Disse Arias. “Eu senti que nos rounds do meio eu estava ganhando a luta, mas nunca se sabe porque eu não era o lado A nessa luta. Eu zumbi muito com ele, especialmente no interior. ”
Hurd começou a tentar montar um retorno nas rodadas cinco e seis, closing the distance effectively and finding a home for short right hooks and right uppercuts, with Arias even acknowledging that he was made unsteady after the action.
“I came in here and challenged the number one guy at 154 pounds and we fought somewhere halfway and I was able to edge a decision,”Disse Arias. “Props to Jarrett Hurd. You fought a great fight. Honestamente, you could have had me out of there. I was definitely buzzed. If you would have found a way, I definitely would have gone down.”
In a fight that had two brief delays to weather affecting the ring surface, Hurd scored a knockdown in round nine with a glancing right hand after Arias appeared to slip on the ring. Despite the advantage on the scorecard, the uneasy footing affected Hurd’s plan to box Arias from the outside.
“O plano que sairia na primeira rodada era boxear,”Disse Hurd. “Eu não estava tão confiante com meus pés quando a chuva caiu, então eu tive que ir de igual para igual mais. Não foi realmente para isso que treinamos, então eu fui um pouco desleixado. ”
Arias se recuperou efetivamente do knockdown na rodada final, com seu ataque, eventualmente, forçando Hurd a tentar se segurar nos minutos finais para chegar ao sino final. Em sua primeira saída com o novo treinador Ismael Salas, Arias terminou a noite vitorioso, com um juiz marcando a luta 95-94 para Hurd, anulado por dezenas de 97-93 e 96-93 para Arias.
“Gostaria de agradecer a Ismael Salas,”Disse Arias. “Eu vim para ele meio tarde. Cerca de seis ou sete semanas e eu precisava mudar algo em meu plano de jogo para vencer Jarrett. The things I was doing before would have gotten me a loss tonight. I needed somebody to just tweak a little bit and put my game up a little bit so I could beat this champion.”
“I’ll take the rematch at whatever weight,”Disse Hurd. “I know I’m the better man.”
In the opening bout of the pay-per-view, former NFL starChad Johnsonmade his boxing debut in an exhibition that went the four-round distance against versatile pro fighterBrian Maxwell.
“I had fun,”Disse Johnson. “I had two months to get ready for this and I want to thank God for keeping us safe out there. I want to thank Floyd, Leonard Ellerbe and my whole team for allowing me to check this off my bucket list.”
“Ask the world who Brian Maxwell is now,” said Maxwell. “Brian Maxwell is here. Obrigado, Chade. Foi uma honra lutar contra meu ídolo e eu agradeço isso. ”
Johnson mostrou os "pés doces" que o tornaram um jogador profissional seis vezes, pousar alguns jabs fortes e verificar os ganchos à distância, ao mesmo tempo em que evita sérios danos de Maxwell nas três primeiras rodadas.
Na quarta rodada, Maxwell deu uma exclamação à luta, pousando um contador overhand direito que conectou e colocou Johnson na tela com 40 segundos para o fim da rodada. Em sua primeira incursão na doce ciência, Johnson foi capaz de se recuperar do tiro, fique de pé e chegue ao sino final.
Sempre disposto a entrar em águas desconfortáveis ao longo de sua carreira, Após a luta, Johnson expressou esperança de que sua aventura no ringue sirva como um exemplo positivo para aqueles que estão assistindo.
“Minha vida sempre foi sobre arriscar e fazer coisas malucas e este é apenas mais um fora da minha lista de desejos,”Disse Johnson. “É uma mensagem para muitas pessoas que têm medo de falhar, com medo de perder, com medo de se arriscar a ir lá e viver. Não tenha medo de falhar, tudo bem. Eu não boxe. Eu luto, mas não está no ringue, então é claro que fui um pouco desleixado. ”

Here is what the fighters had to say Friday from the JW Marriott Miami Turnberry:
JACK Badou
“I’m just thankful that I’m still fighting on Sunday night. Now we have a new opponent and it’s going to be the same outcome. I’m in great shape and I can’t wait.
“Colina is just another guy. I respect him for coming in and stepping up as a late replacement. But I was going to win this fight on Sunday whether it was Pascal or anyone.
“I’m very frustrated about Jean Pascal. But I’m a pro and I can adjust no matter who is in front of me. I’m disappointed because I won the first fight against Pascal and I waited 18 months to get my revenge.
“I have a little anger that might get taken out on Colina, but it’s nothing personal, just business that I’m here to take care of on Sunday night.
“I don’t really care about the title too much, I really just cared about getting that revenge against Pascal. I waited so long for this and I could have taken different fights while I waited.
“He’s an undefeated guy so he’s going to come in here with a lot of confidence looking to show off his power. We’ll be ready though regardless how he comes into the fight. I had great sparring like always, so I’m prepared for what he’s going to bring.”
DERVIN COLINA
“I’d like to thank Team Badou Jack for the opportunity. Isto é o que eu faço. Eu nasci para isso. Come Sunday you guys will see what I do.
“I was scheduled to fight June 11 on a different card. The fight came a little bit earlier on June 6. But I’m ready to fight and there are no excuses for this fight. I’m coming to win at all costs. And you’ll see what I do on Sunday.
“I respect Badou and what he’s done in this sport, but I know that I have everything I need to shock the world come Sunday night.
“I have nothing to lose and that makes me dangerous. I’m going to leave everything in the ring and announce to the whole world that I’m a fighter you’re going to be hearing from.”
JARRETT HURD
“Everyone knows I have unfinished business at 154-pounds. I’m not looking past Arias though. This fight is just a stop at middleweight because I’m going back down to take care of that business.
“We’ve had an amazing training camp with my new trainer Kay Koroma in Colorado Springs. I have a chip on my shoulder. Eu acho que muitas pessoas esqueceram quem eu era. Tive o melhor currículo na categoria de peso. Vem domingo, Vou lembrar a todos quem eu sou.
“É sempre estritamente profissional e será o mesmo no domingo. Arias está obcecado com meu peso e acha que estou lutando. Mas ele precisa se concentrar no que precisa fazer no domingo à noite.
“Não sei onde estou classificado agora, mas eu sou o melhor lutador em 154 libras. Mostrar isso para o mundo é a meta no domingo.
“Acabamos de voltar ao básico no campo de treinamento com meu treinador Kay Koroma. Você sempre pode aprender mais no esporte.
“Eu tenho lutado boxe por 15 anos agora e o treinador Koroma apenas me ajudou a desenvolver as coisas que eu já sabia. Ele me fez não apenas avançar e usar minha força, mas movendo-se e lutando um pouco de boxe. ”
LUIS ARIAS
“Acho que a narrativa é que eles precisavam de um oponente para Jarrett Hurd, e eu não estava tão bem ultimamente. Mas as pessoas tendem a esquecer que eu era 18-0 antes de eu ter minha primeira mancha. Quando eu estava com Floyd Mayweather, Eu estava 9-0 e foi quando eu estava mais confortável. Essa é a mentalidade que estou levando para essa luta.
“Estou perto do Floyd desde dezembro. Eu estive em Vegas treinando na altitude, assim como Hurd. Estou em ótima forma para essa luta e ele ainda precisa descobrir como vai lutar.
“Agora o mundo do boxe vai assistir a essa luta. I’m going to be on my Ps and Qs and he won’t have to look for me. He will have to pick and choose once he gets hit on Sunday what style he wants to fight.
“This is a must-win for me. This is a great name for my resume. I haven’t ducked anyone. I’ve taken every name that’s been brought to me. When his name came up I said absolutely. I’m ready and I’m an old-school fighter. I’d fight you in this backyard, that backyard, any backyard. On Sunday it will show.
“He’s the one who has got the issue with the weight. The fight doesn’t really make much sense at 160 because he’s not ranked and wants to go back down to 154. Mas é uma oportunidade muito grande e um cartão muito grande para reclamar do peso. Vamos colocar as luvas e tudo o que ele pesar, ele pesa. Essa vai ser a melhor luta do card. ”
CHAD JOHNSON
“Eu me sinto muito bem. Tenho usado o boxe para me preparar para o futebol ao longo dos anos, mas eu nunca fiz isso nesta magnitude. Para se preparar para uma luta real, é algo novo. Estou enfrentando um cara que faz isso para viver, então eu não estou levando isso levianamente.
“Eu estava sempre nervoso antes de cada pontapé inicial. Então, eu seria um tolo em dizer que não estou nervoso ao entrar em algo onde estou fora do meu elemento.
“Uma coisa em que sou extremamente bom, é quando há luzes, câmeras e uma multidão, is going in there and entertaining.
“I’ve been working with Jorge Masvidal a little bit, but the last few weeks have been in Houston with Jermall and Jermell Charlo. That’s where most of my work has been. I’ve been doing everything possible to make sure I look the part Sunday night.
“I’m out of my element, so of course I’m approaching this fight humbly. He’s coming to knock my head off. Football is something I did all my life, that’s why I walked the way I did. I can’t be arrogant and take this fight lightly.”
BRIAN MAXWELL
“I don’t know how my name came up for this fight. But like everyone has said, ‘Who is Brian Maxwell?’ That’s been a trending topic on every social media. Mas adivinhem? Hoje, you all know who Brian Maxwell is. And I’m excited about this. It’s a perfect matchup for me. It’s a perfect matchup for Chad. The best of both worlds. Coming from a fan. My hashtag on social media has become ‘Idols Become Rivals.’ And this is the perfect time and the perfect moment for me and him. Like I told him over the phone, I’m a huge fan. But the fanboy has gone out the window. Now we have to entertain and that’s what we’re going to do.
“This is an exhibition, so we are coming to entertain the fans and put on a show. mas ao mesmo tempo, we are two men who are coming in front of each other and have to fight. No matter the outcome, we’re going to put on a great fight.
“I’ve followed this man since Day 1. I know his every move. I’ve modeled myself after him and it’s like fighting myself. I’m going to be humble about this and we are going to put on a show for everyone.
“That has been the question, what round am I going to knock him out. I’m here to entertain and to have fun. This is a great opportunity.”
LEONARD Ellerbe, CEO de Promoções Mayweather
“We have a stacked undercard on Sunday night. I’ve promoted tons of events and this is one that I’m really looking forward to, because it gives us an array of great fights in addition to a little something different.
“I’m really looking forward to this card. South Florida has been buzzing since we announced this event. We can’t wait for the great crowd and the tons of fans tuning in from all around the world.
“When I think of Chad Johnson, he’s a showman. He does so many different things really well. He’ll be making his foray into the boxing industry in what should be a terrific bout against Brian Maxwell. Chad is looking to possibly steal the show, which is what he’s known for doing.
“Former unified champ Jarrett Hurd is a great champion and I’ve known him for many years. He’s looking to get back and make his mark where he left off. He’s let it be known that after this fight, he’s going to take control of the 154-pound division again. He’ll be up against Mayweather Promotions own Luis Arias and I’ve had the opportunity to witness Arias preparation firsthand. I can tell you right now he’s more than prepared to upset Jarrett.
“In the co-main, I can’t say enough about Badou Jack. He’s a great champion in the ring and a terrific example outside of the ring. He does so much to help people around the world and Floyd and I are really proud of him. We know he’s going to put on a great show Sunday.
“When it comes to this undercard, the fans are in for a great treat. It’s going to be nothing but action from top to bottom.”

Aqui está o que os lutadores tinham a dizer terça-feira:
JEAN PASCAL
“I’m very excited about the rematch. I’ve been training in Puerto Rico since December. I’ve been waiting this whole time for the rematch and I’m ready. I respect Badou, but he’s always whining after he loses. The judges said I won the fight and that’s it.
“The first fight, in the first six rounds I did everything well. I might have gotten a little overconfident. I took it a bit too easy after that. The fight got close because of that knockdown he got that wasn’t from a real punch. Without that, it wouldn’t have even been close. We’re going to settle this June 6 em Miami.
“I think I just have to pace myself a little better this fight. I got over excited because I’ve sparred with Badou before and know what I can do. I am a veteran, so I shouldn’t have gotten too excited like that. As far as knocking him down again in this fight, my mom taught me that anything you can do once, you can do twice.
“I do believe that Badou respects my power. If he doesn’t, then he better watch that fourth round again. But I also have skills with my power. I am naturally-gifted and I have the better skills. I was born for this sport and built to win.
“I really think the work in the gym will help so I don’t have ring rust. I’m a veteran. I’ve been here and done that. At this age, it’s better to have more rest than to be over trained. I had the right intensity in camp to make sure I’m not over trained.
“He’s coming for revenge and I’m coming with bad intentions. Vai ser um grande show, so make sure you tune-in for this one.”
JACK Badou “I’m feeling great with my new trainer Jonathon Banks. Physically I’m in amazing shape and I can’t wait. Another week and a half and it’s all going to happen.
“This has been in the works since our first fight. Last year Floyd called me and said, ‘it’s on.’ Then the pandemic hit and it got pushed back. There is a reason there is a rematch, because everyone knows who won that fight. It’s better late than never. I was back in the gym Monday after the first fight.
“There were three judges and Julie Lederman had it for me and the two other guys had never judged a big fight before. We have two judges for this fight: the right hand and the left hand. É isso aí. I’m very confident for this fight and I’m not worried about the judges. I know Jean Pascal is a warrior, and I’m a warrior. Eu sou apenas pronto para lutar.
“Looking at the past, sim, I need to start faster. Cada luta, that can apply. I will listen to my corner, and we’re going to figure out how to win the fight. By any means we need.
“He can say whatever he wants about when I knocked him down. I hit him five straight times and he swung and missed and I hit him. That’s why he went down.
“This is going to be a firefight. We already know that. Tune in to this fight. Boxing is not a game and I’m going to show everyone that and try to steal the show.
“I’ve watched the last fight once or twice, maybe three times. I just need to make some small adjustments. You can always do better. I’m more confident than last time. I know we are both warriors. We’ve fought everyone. We’re the same age (Jack is 37; Pascal 38), even though I look a little bit better. I’m looking younger. Nobody has seen my birth certificate. I’m not really 37. I’m 27.”
JARRETT HURD
“O acampamento de treinamento tem sido ótimo. I haven’t fought in a year and a half, so I had a chance to really take my time with this camp. I’ve had a lot of time to put in the work. I’m training with fighters like Terence Crawford, Shakur Stevenson, Troy Isley and a lot more. We’re all out here working day after day.
“Arias is a great fighter. This is going to be the type of toe-to-toe fight I like. He’s going to be there in front of me and ready to fight. Ele nunca foi interrompido, so I’ll be prepared to go the distance.
“We’ve seen this story before from Arias. He talks a big game but look at his fights against top fighters. It doesn’t matter what weight I’m at, Arias knows what’s coming. I suffered a loss, but I got the win in my last fight and I’m on my way back.
“I just need a dominant win on June 6. Luis Arias can make it ugly, but I have to go win convincingly and let everyone know I’m back. I don’t want to win in a sloppy way, I want to look good doing it.
“He might think he’s catching me at the right time, but it’s not going to be a good time for him on June 6. Eu posso caixa e posso bater, não importa. We’ll decide on fight night which style I’m going to use. I know that I can beat him either way.
“I tried to work on my bad habits after my loss. I was a straight-forward guy who just came at you. I wanted to show in my last fight against Francisco Santana that I can use my height and range if I need to. I wanted to box all 10 rounds and I did that.
“I still have too much unfinished business at 154-pounds. I have a lot of fights, including my rematch against Julian Williams, that I still want to get. I want to regain my titles. Me and Jermell Charlo is probably the biggest fight at 154 agora mesmo. I want to handle that before I move up in weight.”
LUIS ARIAS
“Camp has been excellent. Estou animado para a luta. I think this is a perfect fight and a perfect opportunity. It’s a great matchup. I’ve been working on the right things to make sure I’m one hundred percent prepared for this fight and I think I’m catching Jarrett Hurd at the right time. He’s switching styles. He really doesn’t know how he wants to fight.
“When this fight was brought to me, he was ranked No. 1 at the Ring Magazine at 154 and that’s part of why I wanted this fight. Leonard Ellerbe asked if I was willing to fight Hurd, and I said one hundred percent. It’s all about challenging yourself. This is another challenge and I never turn down a challenge. I’ve been in there with the best and there’s nothing that Jarrett Hurd can bring to the table that I haven’t already seen.
“A win puts me right back in the mix. I’ve always been just one step away from really getting into the mix with the big guys. My last couple fights have all been just one fight away from getting that world title fight. Once I beat Jarrett Hurd on June 6, I’ll be right there with the big dogs. He’s calling out Jermell Charlo and he wants to fight all these other big names, but he’s going to have to get through me. If he loses to me, I’ll be in position for the fights that he wants.
“It’s going to be a hard fight. If he wants to bang, we can bang. If he says he wants to box, he’s not the better boxer. But there’s only one way to find out and we’re going to find out in two weeks. I have to do everything that I can do to make sure that I show up and I impress.
“I’m still young and I’m still fighting my way through. I just needed to make the proper adjustments. I’m not going to be a desperate fighter. I’m going to go in there and fight the way I fight. I’ve always had championship-level fighting in me, but I just haven’t shown it. This is a perfect opportunity for me to show it.
“I’m coming after him. Eu tenho que ganhar. He’s not going to have to find me. I’m going to be right there. If I have to box him in the middle of the ring or if I have to put my head in his chest and dog him out, then that’s what I got to do. From the opening bell to the final bell, if we make it to the final bell, I’m going to be on him. We’ll see what type of adjustments he makes, but I don’t feel he’s a better inside fighter than me and I don’t feel like he’s a better boxer than me.”
LEONARD Ellerbe, CEO de Promoções Mayweather
“The world is buzzing about this whole event, including our terrific undercard with two great professional bouts. Hurd vs. Arias is going to be a scintillating bout. I’ve seen Luis up close and personal during this training camp and I know that he’s 100% prepared and ready to pull off the upset. Hurd on the other hand is looking to maintain his footprint in the 154-pound division and prove he’s the best at that weight.
“Pascal and Jack had a fantastic bout a year and a half ago on SHOWTIME. Desde o sino de abertura, those guys proved they are great warriors and we expect nothing less in the rematch on June 6. The fans are truly in for a treat on that night.
“The energy between these four fighters today has been incredible. As the promoter of this event, Estou animado, so I can only imagine what the fans are in for. Hurd and Arias are both looking to make a statement, and that’s going to roll right into Pascal against Jack, who are going to pick up right where they left off in their first fight.”

The event also featured Mayweather Promotions’ fightersJean Carlos Torres, Dorian Khan Jr., Jalil Hackette Micky Scala, who will compete in separate non-televised bouts on Sunday, Junho 6.Here is what the fighters had to say Tuesday from the Mayweather Boxing Club:
JACK Badou
“Floyd called me in January last year and told me the rematch was on for April. That was last year. It’s been done since we walked out of the ring the first time, but I’m happy it’s finally done. I’m happy it’s here and I’m ready to put on a show.
“I’m trying to perfect everything in preparation for this matchup. Better nutrition. Better conditioning. Better sparring. I’m trying to be better at everything.
“This is my second fight with my new trainer Johnathan Banks. The first was just a tune-up fight. It wasn’t a high-level fight. It was an eight-rounder, so it was just like a sparring session. But I’m in way better shape than I was in the last camp and I’m ready to go.
“My fight is going to be a hell of a fight. Everybody knows that. It was a Fight of the Year contender last time. Floyd vs. Logan is going to be entertainment. That’s a different kind of fight, but Floyd is going to put on a show. All of the eyeballs are going to be on that night so it’s going to be a great night.
“Pascal likes trying to get under my skin, but I’m too calm. I’m too confident for that. No final do dia, he’s a veteran, I’m a veteran and it’s going to be a great fight night.
“I thought I won the first fight. 75 percent of everybody that watched the fight thought I won. There was only one judge that had experience, Julie Lederman, and she had me winning. The other two might have scored his so-called punches but it is what it is.
“Johnathan Banks is my new coach. He’s great. He’s only a year older than me so we have great chemistry together and everything has been working great. It was a little hard in the beginning to adjust to certain things, but now in camp I feel great in sparring and everything we’re doing right now.”
LUIS ARIAS
“It feels amazing to be involved in this event. For a fighter like me who’s been up and down, who was undefeated at one point and then lost it all, went from being one of the best to being overlooked, to be able to fight my way through and to be able to keep fighting and keep working to get back on this big stage is truly a blessing. Estou feliz. Sou abençoado. I can’t wait to get on that stage.
“Boxing is my life and I had to make the necessary changes to get back to this level. I’ve already been to the highest level and I fell short. I got the experience of being there, I know what I need to do to get there and I made those necessary changes. It’s one of the reasons I came back to Vegas, to start training over here to get that experience, to get to that level and to get better. That’s what I’ve been doing and that’s why I’ve been able to prove that I still belong. Floyd saw it. I sparred Floyd. He sees that I still got it and I’m making the changes. He sees how my body is changing and he sees that I can still compete.”
JEAN CARLOS TORRES
“I’m very happy to be on this card. I am going to give the best fight that I can for all my fans. I’m going to do the best that I can.”
DORIAN KHAN JR.
“It feels good to be a part of this event. I’m just getting ready for my fight and focusing on that, but it’s a good opportunity so I’m ready.”
JALIL HACKETT
“It’s amazing to sign with Floyd Mayweather and be a part of this event. É um sonho tornado realidade. I’ve worked so hard since I was eight years old and I’m finally here getting the fruits of my labor.”
MICKY SCALA
“It feels great to be part of the biggest event probably in boxing history. I’m super excited. My family and friends are super excited. We have a lot of fans that are excited and I can’t wait to put on a show. I’m very thankful to Mayweather Promotions for getting me on this card and giving me this opportunity. I’m going to make the best of it.
“That fight before the pandemic at Sam’s Town was a big motivation for me during the down time to stay ready because I knew another fight was going to come soon. My family was a big part of that motivation. I want to make sure that they can live however they want to, so I’m working hard every single day. I’ve been ready to fight since the day the pandemic started until now. I can’t wait to put on a show in Miami.”
LEONARD Ellerbe, CEO MAYWEATHER PROMOTIONS “We have two hot events coming up. We have the Floyd event with him taking on Logan Paul. Tremendous undercard from top to bottom. We have all my pro debut guys. I call them my starting five. And then we have Chad Ochocinco who is going to be fighting in an exhibition. Everybody is dying to see that. And then we have former unified champion Jarrett Hurd taking on Mayweather Promotions’ own Luis Arias. I think that will be a tremendous fight. Those guys will be looking to steal the show in a 10-round bout. No co-main event, we have none other than Pascal vs. Tomada. That will be a war. Their first fight was a Fight of the Year and I expect nothing different. The fans are really in for a treat with that fight.
“We were just waiting for the right opportunity to make the Pascal vs. Jack rematch. Esta é uma tremenda plataforma. It’s a huge event and it’s the type of platform that these two guys deserve, to be seen on a global situation around the world.
“My starting five is filled with top-tier talent. I know talent when I see it. Each and every one of these guys I’ve had a great look at up close and personal and I was beyond impressed. Floyd was also. All of them have big futures.
“Floyd Mayweather vs. Logan Paul is entertainment. Floyd is an entertainer. Logan Paul is an entertainer. One thing about the Paul brothers is they’ve shown they can have an impact on anything that they do. I’ve been very impressed with both of those guys, especially Logan. I call him the king of the internet. One thing about both of them is that they’ve been extremely consistent at what they’ve been doing. I’m not going to stand here and pretend that these guys are ready for championship fights because they’re not, but they work extremely hard and they’re very good at what they do.”

Mayweather, who was elected to the International Boxing Hall of Fame’s Class of 2020, tem um perfeito 50-0 registro com 27 nocautes. He racked up 12 world titles in five weight divisions during his illustrious career that spanned three decades. His brilliant boxing resume includes 24 wins over world champions, including Manny Pacquiao, Oscar De La Hoya and Canelo Alvarez. Durante sua carreira, he was named the world’s highest paid athlete multiple times byForbes, Fortuna e Sports Illustrated. Mayweather has accumulated numerous “Fighter of the Year” awards, incluindo cinco Prémios ESPY Awards e dois escritores Boxing Association of America prêmios. Seu 2015 showdown with Pacquiao shattered the all-time pay-per-view television record with 4.6 million buys, a record that still stands. Mayweather last fought in a boxing exhibition on New Year’s Eve 2018 no Japão. His last professional boxing match was his 2017 stoppage win over Conor McGregor, the second biggest pay-per-view event in television history.
As Mayweather dominated boxing en route to a perfect professional record and international stardom, Paul rose to fame on the internet. Paul, 26, welcomed the world into his life on various social media platforms including YouTube, where he has amassed more than 20 million subscribers. His legions of devoted fans supported him as he stepped into professional boxing in 2019 and sold out the STAPLES Center in Los Angeles in his six-round debut against fellow YouTube star KSI. The Ohio native is a former high school wrestling standout and has been training for more than two years. Agora, he readies himself to face an undefeated boxing legend. While Paul stands six inches taller than Mayweather and owns an 18-year age advantage, the social media sensation will be challenging the best boxer of his generation, in his arena.
Pascal (35-6-1, 20 KOs) earned a narrow split-decision victory over Jack in their December 2019 title showdown that saw both men hit the canvas. Prior to that fight, Pascal captured his interim title by handing Marcus Browne the first defeat of his professional career. Pascal scored four knockdowns in that fight, eventually earning a close technical decision when a cut suffered by Browne on an accidental head butt stopped the fight after eight rounds. The 38-year-old has been in the ring with the top fighters of his era during his brilliant career, incluindo Bernard Hopkins, Sergey Kovalev, Carl Froch, Lucian Bute, and Chad Dawson. Pascal, who was born in Port-Au-Prince, Haiti and now lives in Laval, Quebec, won his first light heavyweight world title with a unanimous decision over Adrian Diaconu in 2009.
Tomada (22-3-3, 13 KOs) will look to avenge the razor-thin defeat he suffered to Pascal in their first match. Jack mounted an impressive rally on the scorecards that nearly turned the match in his favor. Born in Stockholm, Tomada (who represented his father’s home country of Gambia in the 2008 Jogos Olímpicos) now lives in Las Vegas. Jack won the 168-pound world title with a majority decision against Anthony Dirrell in 2015 and successfully defended the belt three times before being handed a hard-fought majority draw against James DeGale in one of 2017’s best fights. In his first bout at 175 libras, Jack stopped Nathan Cleverly to pick up the WBA light heavyweight title before fighting to a majority draw against then WBC champion Adonis Stevenson in May 2018. Em sua excursão mais recente, Jack won a unanimous decision over Blake McKernan in November 2020.
The 30-year-old Hurd (24-1, 16 KOs) unified the WBA and IBF 154-pound titles in 2018, dropping longtime champion Erislandy Lara in the final round to win a close decision in a fight that was the unanimous 2018 Luta do Ano. The Accokeek, Maryland native lost the titles in one of 2019’s best fights, dropping a decision to Julian Williams. Hurd first became champion in February 2017 when he stopped former champion Tony Harrison in the ninth round, before going on to defend the title against another former champion in Austin Trout. Mais recentemente, Hurd scored a unanimous decision victory over Francisco Santana in January 2020.
Born in Milwaukee, Arias (18-2-1, 9 KOs) will return to the ring for the first time since August 2019 when he takes on Hurd on June 6. The 30-year-old has faced some of the best in the middleweight division, including going the distance with former middleweight champion Daniel Jacobs in a 2017 duel. Arias racked up wins in his first 18 pro fights after turning pro in 2012 and is now training in Las Vegas as he prepares for this fight.
