Here is what the press conference participants had to say Monday from the Dream Hotel Downtown in Manhattan:

 

DANNY GARCIA

 

 

 

“I’m excited for this fight because I’m a world championship-level fighter and this gives me the chance to be back where I’ve been for so long. It doesn’t matter who it is, I’m just happy to be back and fighting for the title.

 

 

 

 

“The loss against Keith Thurman hurt me for a little bit. I thought I finished the fight strong and won. At the end of the day though, I feel motivated again. I feel more motivated now than I did before the fight. There’s something different inside of me.

 

 

 

 

“No hi ha pressió sobre mi, I’m just going to come to fight. We can dance if he wants, but I guarantee I’m coming to bang with him in the middle of the ring. I feel I’m the stronger puncher, have the faster hands and am the better all-around fighter.

 

 

 

 

“I’m so used to hearing my dad’s voice during a fight. Me and my dad are different than other people. We do a lot together outside of the ring. We’re friends first because of where we came from. We’re enjoying every moment and we’re hungry for me.

 

 

 

“Al final de la dia, my mindset is fully focused on September 8. I have to go grab this title and then you can ask me to fight anyone. I’ve never turned down an opponent in my career. I’m a fighter and this is what I do.

 

 

 

 

“This wasn’t the first time someone has called me out and it won’t be the last. Vinga setembre 8, I will show the world once again why I am one of the best.

 

 

 

 

“Al final de la dia, I have to go in there and make adjustments and do what I do best. I’ll set the tempo and the pace and take it one round at a time.

 

 

 

 

“The fans at Barclays Center love me. This is the ‘Danny Garcia Show.’ Whenever I fight here, all I hear is ‘DSG! DSG!.’ They are going to be there for me.”

 

SHAWN PORTER

 

 

 

“I think for a long time, watching Danny do what he does and hearing him say what he’d do to me, I got stirred up to the point where I really wanted this fight. I made that known after his fight against Brandon Rios and I think that’s why we’re here right now.

 

 

 

“This is a great opportunity to get the fight I wanted for my career. I’m thriving right now and you’ll see it all on fight night.

 

 

 

“I’m a very difficult fighter to prepare for. You never know what you’ll get with me. I’m used to being the underdog and I thrive on it. I’m the more intelligent fighter at the end of the day.

 

 

 

“Me and my dad are a little different than Angel and Danny. Boxing is our way of life and this is what he’s grown me into. Fight night is like Christmas or another birthday. That’s when we come together the most and make the best of every opportunity.

 

 

 

“Brooklyn doesn’t like me because of what I wear or what I say, they like me because I come to fight and I entertain. That’s all because of my dad and the tools he’s given me to be the very best that I could be.

 

 

 

“All of my abilities – energia, rapidesa, the whole nine will help me get this victory. To beat Danny Garcia, you have to use your whole arsenal. Especially beating him in the fashion we want to beat him in. We want to look great.

 

 

 

“We have seen Danny in the ring with different fighters with different styles. You can be aggressive and beat him, you can use the ring and outbox him, we are going to use them all.

 

 

 

“Al final de la dia, I learned a lesson in my last fight. My dad told me not to do anything for the crowd. You have to do what you have to do to win. Setembre 8 isn’t going to be about making the crowd yell and winning them over. That is already done. It is a matter of going in there with whatever game plan we go with and making it happen.

 

 

 

“The belt is all I want. Winning a title is always special, but beating Danny Garcia for it will be icing on the cake. He’s been a top fighter for a long time and this win will help solidify me. Once I have the belt, the sky’s the limit.”

 

ÀNGEL GARCÍA, Pare de Danny & Entrenador

 

 

 

“I don’t see anything special in Shawn Porter. He comes with his head, he comes wild. We’re going to take care of him and we’re going to work on him. He’s not bringing anything to the table that I haven’t seen before. It’s Danny’s time.

 

 

 

“At the end of the day we got a fight. Words are just words. I’d give my life for Danny. I’d take a bullet for him, I love him.

 

 

 

“Escolta, when Danny hits him on the right side he’s going to feel it on the left. My son’s power is like nothing he’s ever seen before.

 

 

 

“Escolta, at the end of the night September 8º, Danny will be champion again. That belt is coming home with us and back to Philadelphia.”

 

KENNY PORTER, El pare de Shawn & Entrenador

 

 

 

“We really enjoy fighting at Barclays Center. The energy there is different than any other location. It is a comfortable location for us and it is going to be an exciting night.

 

 

 

“Training has been different in a lot of ways, but a very good different. We are doing a lot of things that we have never done before and we are excited about that. To do different things that create excitement and make you look forward to coming to train is always good.

 

 

 

“They will not be prepared for us on fight night. We will start to focus on some of the things that we will do for Danny and in that aspect, there are some things we will have to prepare for differently.

 

 

 

“The biggest thing is to make sure is that Shawn is ready. We’re going to have a solid game plan that Shawn will know how to implement. We’re going to make Danny adjust to us.”

 

Lou DiBella, El president de DiBella Entertainment

 

 

 

“These are two guys who have really made a name for themselves fighting in Brooklyn. They’ve been a part of the best fights in Brooklyn. They are two of the best fighters and most exciting fighters in the sport. This is as good as it gets style-wise, període. These guys get that this is entertainment. These are two guys that entertain.

 

 

 

“Shawn has come out on the short end a couple of times, and clearly those fights could have been scored differently. They were sensational fights as all of his bouts tend to be.

 

 

 

“Danny Garcia doesn’t get enough respect, he gets out there and wins. He’s a great fighter who does everything well, which makes him extremely dangerous.

 

 

 

“These guys have earned this opportunity and the winner deserves the belt. The winner will get one of the biggest fights in the sport after this. Both guys are professionals who know the stakes on September 8.

 

 

 

“This is going to be an electric fight. The fans will be on the edge of their seats this whole night and you’re not going to want to miss it.

 

 

 

“These are two guys who know how to fight and will entertain you. Make sure you get your tickets early.”

 

BRETT Yormark, CEO de BSE Global

 

 

 

“As Lou said September 8th should be terrific. I am personally looking forward to it. It adds to our resume of BROOKLYN BOXING. It comes almost right at our 6th anniversary of Barclays Center.

 

 

 

“Both fighters are veterans in our ring. This is Danny’s seventh fight in Brooklyn and Shaw’s fifth and they have built fan bases here. Our presale in the first few days have been terrific.

 

 

 

“Danny opened the building for BROOKLYN BOXING almost six years ago and we thank you for that and we thank you for continuing to come back.

 

 

 

“Shawn’s last three fights have been in Brooklyn. I think you and your dad have been sitting ringside for every fight in Brooklyn and we are thrilled to have you back.

 

 

 

“We are thankful to be hosting the boxing industry time and time again and we are as committed as ever to bring the best of the best to Brooklyn and doing it consistently throughout the year. I look forward to seeing everyone on the 8th. It should be a spectacular night.”

 

STEPHEN ESPINOZA, President Esports & Programació d'esdeveniments, Showtime Networks Inc.

 

 

 

“García vs. Porter will be the 12th SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING event of the year. That is just through September. Adding our other live boxing events, we have done 24 live boxing presentations this year. It is not just quantity; it is high quality.

 

 

 

“Eight times on SHOWTIME this year alone, there have been top five fighters fighting each other. Here we have two of the strongest resumes not just in the welterweight division, but in the sport overall.

 

 

 

“Danny Garcia has 12 fights against current or former world champions. There is no question that Danny Garcia has one of the strongest resumes in the sport. I don’t think he gets credit for it and it is time that he does. Of Shawn’s last 11 baralles, eight have been against former world champions. He always wants to fight in the very best fights.

 

 

 

“Between the two of them, they have fought on SHOWTIME and/or CBS combined 20 vegades. The best fighters, the biggest most meaningful fights. That’s what we have been doing, and with fighters like Danny and Shawn, we are going to continue to do it.”

ELITE WELTERWEIGHT STARS DANNY GARCIA & SHAWN PORTER SET TO BATTLE FOR VACANT 147-POUND WORLD TITLE

Leave a comment

 

Dissabte, Setembre 8 En viu per SHOWTIME® del Barclays Center a Brooklyn & Presentat per Premier campions de boxa

Entrades a la venda Dijous, Juliol 26 a 10 A.M.

BROOKLYN (Juliol 24, 2018) – Welterweight stars and former 147-pound titleholders Danny “Swift” Garcia i “Showtime” Shawn Porter will square off for the vacant WBC Welterweight World Championship live on SHOWTIME Saturday, Setembre 8 in a Premier Boxing Champions event from Barclays Center, la casa de BROOKLYN BOXA ™.

 

 

 

La boxa del campionat Showtime® esdeveniment principal (9 p.m. ET / 6 pm. PT) will pit two of the division’s biggest names against each other, as the former unified 140-pound champion and former WBC welterweight titleholder Garcia meets the hard-charging fan favorite and former welterweight champion Porter. The consensus top-5 ranked welterweights face off for the WBC belt vacated by Keith Thurman as he rehabs from an elbow surgery.

 

 

 

Les entrades per a l'esdeveniment en viu, que està promogut per TGB Promotions i DiBella Entertainment, en associació amb DSG Promotions, comença a $50 and go on sale Thursday, Juliol 26 a 10 a.m. Les entrades es poden comprar a ticketmaster.com,barclayscenter.com, o trucant al 800-745-3000. Tickets can also be purchased at the American Express Box Office at Barclays Center starting Friday, Juliol 27 al migdia. Descomptes per a grups estan disponibles trucant al 844-BKLYN-GP.

 

 

 

“I’m excited and motivated to go in there and recapture what’s mine,", va dir Garcia. “The WBC title belongs to me. Vinga setembre 8, I’m going to prove that I’m the best fighter in the world. My loss is behind me and it’s given me a chip on my shoulder to run that extra mile and train even harder. I know that Shawn Porter is not on my level. I’m coming to fight him in the middle of the ring and I’m going to beat him at his game.”

 

 

 

“I’m going to force Danny Garcia to fight me, to be uncomfortable and to do things he’s not used to doing in a fight,” said Porter. “If Danny comes in being defensive and trying to hold, it may last a while. But if he comes and tries to trade with me and prove something to himself, then it will end fast. I think my style will give him problems and not allow him to pace himself. This is going to be an instant classic and I’m going to win and become champion once again.”

 

 

 

García (34-1, 20 KOs) ha lluitat i derrotat many of the most formidable opponents at 140 and 147-pounds spanning two generations—Erik Morales, Zab Judah, Kendall Holt, Amir Khan, Lucas Matthysse, Paulie Malignaggi and Lamont Peterson among them. Five of his six opponents in the welterweight division were world champions and 11 del seu passat 15 oponents van ser campions del món o ex campions del món.

 

 

 

Representing the fighting city of Philadelphia, Garcia has made Brooklyn another home base, drawing big crowds in six fights since the arena opened in 2012 including his triumphs over Morales, Judá, Peterson and Malignaggi and a narrow decision loss to Keith Thurman in a blockbuster world title unification that aired on CBS. The 30-year-old put himself into position to earn back his WBC belt with a highlight-reel knockout of Brandon Rios in a title eliminator February on SHOWTIME.

 

 

 

Desgast (28-2-1, 17 KOs) owns victories over four-division champion Adrien Broner and two-division champion Paulie Malignaggi over a career that has seen him develop a reputation as one of the sport’s most reliable all-action attractions. He lost a narrow decision to unified welterweight champion Keith Thurman in a 2016 Fight of the Year candidate in Brooklyn but rebounded with two victories last year at Barclays Center. He scored a TKO victory against former welterweight champion Andre Berto in a welterweight title eliminator and followed it up with a 12-round decision over Adrian Granados.

 

 

 

The 30-year-old Porter, who was born in Akron, Ohio and now lives in Las Vegas, will fight at Barclays Center for the fifth time on September 8, including his title-winning performance against Devon Alexander that earned him the IBF title in 2013.

 

 

 

“Danny Garcia vs. Shawn Porter will be an action-packed, can’t-miss brawl,Va dir Lou Dibella, El president de DiBella Entertainment. “This hugely important matchup is between two of the best welterweights in the world and pressure fighters with pleasing styles. Both Garcia and Porter have shined in memorable battles at Barclays Center and September 8 will be a tremendous night for boxing.”

 

 

 

“Danny Garcia against Shawn Porter in a welterweight title fight is a throwback to the era when you had Thomas Hearns battling Roberto Duran,’’ said Tom Brown, President de Promocions TGB. “Their styles are tailor-made to create action in the ring. Porter comes forward and throws punches in bunches and Garcia doesn’t back up for anyone. This one will be decided in the center of the ring like all the great welterweight championship matches.’’

 

 

 

“In 2018 SHOWTIME has delivered the biggest and most meaningful matchups in boxing, and Garcia vs. Porter is no exception,"Va dir Stephen Espinoza, President, Esports & Programació d'esdeveniments, Showtime Networks Inc. “This will be our sixth fight this year featuring consensus top-10 welterweights, an unrivaled offering of elite fighters in boxing’s glamour division. Danny and Shawn have fought a combined 20 times on SHOWTIME and, en el camí, have earned reputations as fighters who never back down from a challenge. I know they are both eager to earn another world title and send a statement to the other champions in the welterweight division.”

 

 

 

“I am pleased to welcome both Danny and Shawn back to Barclays Center,” said Brett Yormark, CEO de BSE Global. “Both fighters have established a great following in Brooklyn, and September will be their biggest moment yet at Barclays Center. We are the number one venue for boxing, and are proud to host another world-class fight.”

BROOKLYN (Abril 22, 2018) – campió mundial en quatre divisions Adrien Broner i campió del món de dues divisions Jessie Vargas va lluitar per un sorteig majoritari de 12 rondes molt entretingut dissabte a la nit a SHOWTIME a l'esdeveniment principal de SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING davant de 13,964 aficionats al Barclays Center de Brooklyn en un esdeveniment presentat per Premier Boxing Champions.

 

 

 

La batalla d'anada i tornada va ser una història d'activitat vs. precisió. Vargas va ser, amb diferència, el lluitador més actiu, llançament 839 cops totals, 300 més que el seu oponent. No obstant això, el cridaner Broner era extremadament precís, de connexió a 44 per cent dels seus trets de poder i 38 per cent del seu total de ponches, en comparació amb només 27 i 24, respectivament, per Vargas.

 

 

 

Broner (33-3-1, 24 KOs) va entrar amb força a la segona meitat de la lluita, recollint la vuitena ronda 10 sobre els tres jutges’ quadres de comandament. La 12º ronda va ser crucial per determinar el sorteig, que va ser anotat 115-113 Broner i 114-114 dues vegades. Els jutges van acordar vuit dels 12 rondes però no es va poder posar d'acord sobre la ronda final, que va ser dictat de manera diferent pels dos jutges que van anotar la lluita amb un empat.

 

 

“Vull donar les gràcies a Jessie Vargas. És dues vegades campió del món per una raó,” Said Broner, que treballava per primera vegada amb Kevin Cunningham com a entrenador principal. “Va venir a lluitar però al final del dia, tots sabeu que el vaig vèncer. Punt en blanc, període.

 

 

 

“Estava connectant amb els drets. Em vaig escalfar a la primera part de la lluita. El meu entrenador ha estat de gran ajuda aquesta nit. Vull donar les gràcies a l'entrenador Cunningham així com al meu entrenador original, Mike Stafford, per adonar-me que necessitava fer alguna cosa diferent.

 

 

 

“M'encantaria tornar a lluitar contra Vargas, però tornem al meu poble per fer-ho.”

 

 

 

Vargas (28-2-1, 10 KOs) va treballar fora del jab i va ser increïblement efectiu amb els seus trets al cos només en la seva segona lluita amb l'entrenador i excampió del món Mike “El llastrador de cos” McCallum.

 

 

 

“Vaig pensar que vaig guanyar la lluita,” va dir Vargas. “Al final del dia no puc discutir perquè estava lluitant a l'interior del ring, així que no sé què vas veure des de fora.. Estava donant cops nets. Va ser una bona lluita, però al final no puc qüestionar la decisió.

 

 

 

“Ha d'haver estat una lluita estreta perquè els jutges l'haguessin anotat com ho van fer. Vaig sentir que vaig guanyar la lluita i vaig pujar dues rondes. Confio en els jutges per prendre la decisió correcta.”

 

 

 

Excampió de 154 lliures Jermall Charlo va enviar una declaració a la divisió de pes mitjà a l'esdeveniment co-principal, eliminant un rival que havia estat derrotat anteriorment Hugo Centeno Jr. per capturar el títol interí de 160 lliures WBC. VIDEO:https://s.sho.com/2vxBnDM

 

 

 

Charlo és ara el obligatori per a Gennady “GGG” Golovkin i no es va defugir de cridar el WBC, Campió del món de pes mitjà WBA i IBF.

 

 

 

“Ha estat un viatge increïble arribar fins aquí,” Said Charlo, el germà bessó del campió de 154 lliures del CMB Jermell Charlo. “Sóc dues vegades campió del món. Porta 'GGG.’ Vull aquesta baralla. Estic 27-0 amb 21 nocauts. Tothom ho veu. Què més puc dir?”

 

 

 

Charlo (27-0, 21 KOs) va demostrar que el seu poder es tradueix en pes mitjà, ja que va eliminar al seu segon oponent des que va renunciar al seu títol i va passar a 160 lliura. El nadiu de Houston ara ha guanyat per nocaut en cinc dels seus sis combats des que es va convertir inicialment en campió 2015. Una sèrie de tirs va obrir un enorme ganxo d'esquerra en el primer minut de la segona ronda, paviment Centeno (26-2, 14 KOs), que no va aconseguir superar el compte de 10 i va ser comptat a :55.

 

 

 

“Tothom m'ha evitat sempre i a partir d'ara, així serà com serà,” Said Charlo. “Ja veus el que aconsegueixes.”

 

 

 

Seguint la lluita, Centeno era conscient dels errors que van provocar la derrota.

 

 

 

“Vaig pensar que vaig començar força bé. Volia sortir al meu escut però no era el meu dia,” va dir Centeno. “Em va agafar i va aconseguir el nocaut. Estava intentant treballar el meu jab. Vaig pensar que el vaig aconseguir amb un parell de bons tirs, però em vaig quedar massa temps a la butxaca i no vaig sortir a temps.”

 

 

 

A la primera baralla de la transmissió per televisió, Gervonta Davis es va convertir en dos cops campió del món de manera empàtica amb una tercera ronda de nocaut técnico de l'antic campió Jesús Cuellar per capturar el Campionat del Món vacant de 130 lliures de l'AMB. VIDEO: https://s.sho.com/2vusWsW

 

 

 

L'invicte Davis (20-0, 19 KOs), que va perdre el títol de l'IBF de 130 lliures a la balança l'agost passat, va anotar tres derrocaments en menys de tres rondes per guanyar el seu segon títol a la divisió de pes súper ploma. El jove de 23 anys va connectar 49 per cent dels seus cops de poder en el seu primer combat amb el nou entrenador Kevin Cunningham.

 

 

 

“A la fitxa de la baralla Mayweather-McGregor, Simplement no estava concentrat,” va dir Davis. “Va ser la segona vegada que lluitava amb la targeta de Mayweather, així que em va arribar al cap i es va veure. Després de la baralla, Vaig anar a casa i vaig parlar amb el meu equip i vam decidir que era hora de marxar de Baltimore. Estic concentrat i es va demostrar perquè torno a ser campió.

 

 

 

“Sempre hi ha cops al camí quan vols tenir èxit. Es tracta de com et recuperes i aquesta nit he demostrat que sóc un veritable campió.”

 

 

 

Davis va utilitzar una combinació de trets corporals, uppercuts i eficaç contrapunxada per trencar Cuellar, un antic titular de 126 lliures. Davis de Baltimore va colpejar Cuellar amb un cop al cos a la segona ronda i no va cedir a partir d'aquí. El zurdo va avançar a la tercera, perseguint Cuellar contra les cordes i enviant-lo avall per segona vegada amb una sèrie de combinacions. Cuellar (28-3, 21 KOs) es va aixecar, però va tenir greus problemes i l'àrbitre Benjy Esteves va intervenir per aturar el partit a 2:45 amb l'argentí caient a la lona per tercera vegada.

 

 

 

“El pla de joc era boxejar una mica i obrir-lo amb alguns trets,” va dir Davis. “Quan va ser l'hora, Vaig avançar i el vaig agafar amb prou trets per treure'l.

 

 

 

“Vull tornar el cinturó de l'IBF i estic preparat per unificar-lo amb qui guanyi [Tevin] Pagès vs. [Porra] Dib lluita.”

 

 

 

A l'emissió de dissabte, es va anunciar que Errol Spence Jr. farà la segona defensa del seu campionat mundial de pes welter de la FIB contra el desafiador obligatori invicte Carlos Ocampo al juny 16 a SHOWTIME en una baralla de tornada a Dallas.

 

 

 

El triple header de SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING de dissabte es repetirà dilluns a 10 p.m. ET / PT a SHOWTIME EXTREME.

Això és el que els participants de la conferència de premsa van dir dijous des del Barclays Center de Brooklyn:

 

Adrien Broner

 

 

 

 

 

“Estic preparat per lluitar. No em preocupa Jessie. Aquesta és una lluita molt important per a la meva carrera. Sé que Jessie es va entrenar dur per vèncer-me. Aquesta és una victòria que ens pot portar a qualsevol de nosaltres al següent nivell. Estic a punt per lluitar ara mateix i per aconseguir-ho.

 

 

 

 

“Quan va fer un pas i va lluitar contra Tim Bradley i Manny Pacquiao, va perdre. Sóc quatre vegades campió del món, així que no vull saber res de les meves pèrdues. Jessie Vargas no és tan bona com els nois amb qui vaig perdre.

 

 

 

 

“Espero obtenir crèdit quan hagi vençut a Jessie Vargas. Espero obtenir el crèdit que em mereixo. La gent vol que perdi i me'n vagi, però endevineu què? Vaig treballar més que mai per aquesta lluita. No estic perdent davant Jessie Vargas. Sóc quatre vegades campió del món i aviat seré cinc vegades campió del món aquest any.

 

 

 

 

“Encara sóc un dels millors lluitadors d'aquesta època. Quan acabi la meva carrera, Seré un dels millors a lligar un parell de guants de boxa. No puc esperar per donar a tothom alguna cosa per recordar dissabte.

 

 

 

 

“Estar amb Kevin Cunningham al campament va canviar molt. Va trigar una estona a acostumar-s'hi. Aquest és el primer campament que faig des que era petit amb un nou entrenador. No hi havia distraccions al campament. Tot era feina, cap joc.

 

 

 

 

“Estic a un nivell diferent que ell. Ho demostraré dissabte. No em preocupa res de la negativitat que envolta el meu nom. Estic a punt per anar a fer un espectacle.

 

 

 

 

 

“Enguany em faig càrrec. Tot comença amb Jessie Vargas dissabte a la nit. Vaig a ser jo mateix, i fer un gran espectacle.”

 

JESSIE VARGAS

 

 

 

 

“Tot al camp d'entrenament ha anat fantàstic. No puc esperar per aquesta baralla. Això no és un joc. Estic aquí per guanyar i penso fer-ho. Això serà acció.

 

 

 

 

“He vist els errors que Broner ha comès en el passat. He de sortir i preocupar-me pel meu rendiment. Sóc versàtil i faré el que hagi de fer. Tots dos som antics campions del món, però al final del dia només hi haurà un guanyador, i seré jo.

 

 

 

 

“Crec que tinc un avantatge sent el lluitador més alt i fort. Sóc un pes welter adult. Estic preparat per a la victòria.

 

 

 

 

“Tots dos aportem experiència i tots dos som nois amb talent. Sens dubte, oferirem entreteniment als aficionats dissabte a la nit. Estic en una gran part de la meva carrera perquè no he rebut tant de càstig. Sóc campió del món de dues divisions per una raó.

 

 

 

 

 

“El meu pes ha estat en aquest campament. La meva nutricionista ha fet una gran feina i demà seré perfecte a l'escala. Tot el meu equip ha estat perfecte i us portarà a la millor Jessie Vargas que heu vist mai dissabte..

 

 

 

 

 

“Dissabte a la nit serà un gran espectacle. És una gran carta i després l'esdeveniment principal serà tots els focs artificials. Vine i gaudeix d'una gran nit de boxa i veu'm guanyar la victòria.”

 

Charlo JERMALL

 

 

 

 

“Vull fer una declaració dissabte a la nit. He estat entrenant dur des de la meva última lluita. Vaig prometre als meus fans alguna cosa que recordaran d'aquesta lluita. Haureu d'esperar i veureu.

 

 

 

 

 

“Un cop em passos davant meu, és una baralla. Cada cop poso la meva vida en perill. Només estic esperant coses encara més grans que tinc al davant. Dono als aficionats alguna cosa especial per emportar-se a casa de la meva actuació.

 

 

 

 

“Em sento molt bé ara mateix. Va ser un altre d'aquells campaments que vaig poder començar aviat i entrar aviat al gimnàs. Puc fer el que necessitis al ring. Estic preparat per fer d'aquesta lluita tot focs artificials.

 

 

 

 

 

“Faig moltes coses bones al campament per fer-me sentir més fort. Va ser una mica dur amb el retard, però res que no hagi pogut treballar. Estic en pes ara mateix tan lluny. Tinc un gran equip que m'ha ajudat a arribar-hi.

 

 

 

 

 

“Estic centrat en el que estic passant. Hugo creu que l'estic passant per alt, però això no passa gens. Vull treure'l i fer una declaració que estic preparat per als grans noms de la divisió.

 

 

 

 

 

“Anem a aixecar Brooklyn. Realment vull fer una declaració. No importa com em senti durant tota la lluita, ho farem rock.”

 

HUGO CENTENO JR.

 

“Tinc la sensació que se m'està passant per alt. No he estat capaç de fer-me un nom familiar en estar en aquestes plataformes. Vinga l'abril 21, Vaig a donar a conèixer el meu nom.

 

 

 

 

“La lesió a la costella va ser difícil de suportar al principi. Estàvem molt a prop del final, però un cop vaig reprendre l'entrenament, Jo ja estava en condicions fenomenals. Em va portar a un altre nivell i ara estic en les millors condicions de la meva vida.

 

 

 

 

“Em sento perfecte ara mateix dirigint-me a aquesta lluita. Vam tenir un gran sparring al campament i estic preparat per entrar al ring.

 

 

 

 

 

“Fins i tot estar en aquesta posició demostra a la gent que m'he guanyat el camí fins aquí. Ningú m'ha lliurat res. Aquesta és una de les divisions més difícils del món i sóc aquí per una raó. Aquesta baralla significa el món per a mi. Ha sigut 20 anys d'esforç reunint-se dissabte.

 

 

 

 

“Sé que Charlo ve a lluitar, i definitivament vinc a lluitar. No importa quina sigui l'estratègia o l'estil, Estaré preparat per a qualsevol cosa que se'm vegi.

 

 

 

 

“Espero que surti fort. Sabem que està buscant un nocaut. Però crec que si no té l'oportunitat, es reduirà a qui és el lluitador més intel·ligent.”

 

GERVONTA DAVIS

 

 

 

 

 

“Dissabte a la nit podeu esperar una lluita plena d'acció. Sé que Cuéllar vindrà a lluitar. Definitivament vinc a lluitar. Estic preparat per reprendre on ho vaig deixar, de nou com a campió.

 

 

 

 

 

“Vaig tenir moltes distraccions el darrer campament que em van fer perdre pes. A partir d'aquell dia em vaig centrar a tornar a un títol mundial. Vaig decepcionar la gent quan vaig perdre el títol a l'escala, però ara estic més concentrat.

 

 

 

 

 

“Va ser fantàstic estar al campament a Florida en comptes de tornar a casa a Baltimore. D'aquesta manera, només em preocupa la boxa cada dia. Estic menjant bé i realment just 100 per cent centrat en la boxa. Va ser una gran jugada i es veurà dissabte.

 

 

 

 

 

“Tinc les habilitats i el carisma per estar al capdavant de l'esport. Només necessito els oponents adequats, però no ho vaig a pressa. He de prendre decisions intel·ligents en aquest esport per arribar on vull. Vull continuar fent grans actuacions.

 

 

 

 

 

“Crec que aquesta lluita em tornarà a situar al mapa com una de les estrelles en ascens més joves de la boxa. Crec que tinc les habilitats per fer-ho.

 

 

 

 

 

“He estat entrenant molt amb l'Adrien al campament. Ens hem estat empenyent els uns als altres i només vull poder mirar enrere aquesta lluita i poder dir que aquesta va ser una de les meves millors actuacions. Vull demostrar que tinc les habilitats i la capacitat per fer-me càrrec de l'esport de la boxa.”

 

JESUS ​​CUELLAR

 

 

 

 

 

 

“Entenc que Davis és un gran oponent, però dins del ring, només serem nosaltres dos, anar de peu a peu. Sé que serà una gran lluita.

 

 

 

 

 

“Tot això serà acció. Espereu veure una guerra amb mi aixecant la mà al final de la nit. Faré el que calgui.

 

 

 

 

 

“El pla és sortir allà i guanyar aquest cinturó. Hem tingut un gran entrenament i entrenament per aconseguir-nos aquesta posició. Els meus entrenadors van treballar molt dur per preparar-me.

 

 

 

 

 

“Aquesta baralla és molt important per a mi. Vull ser campió del món de dues divisions i tinc l'oportunitat que esperava dissabte a la nit.

 

 

 

 

 

“Crec que vaig prendre la decisió correcta per allunyar-me de la boxa. Ara he tornat més fort que mai. Em sento molt bé i tothom ho veurà dissabte a la nit.

 

 

 

 

 

“Tenim un pla de joc i ho farem. Seré agressiu com sempre, però també mostrar algunes coses noves que he treballat.

 

 

 

 

“Estic llest per anar 12 rondes si és necessari, però si tinc l'oportunitat d'hora per a un nocaut, Vaig a prendre-ho. Estic aquí per donar-ho tot i guanyar aquesta lluita, això és tot.”

 

HEATHER HARDY

 

 

 

 

 

“Realment no hi ha res com lluitar a casa. Tan emocionant com era estar a la gàbia, això és com estar al meu pati del darrere.

 

 

 

 

 

“Sempre és un somni boxejar al Barclays Center i no hi ha res com estar aquí davant la meva gent. Espero que el meu oponent hagi entrenat dur perquè estic preparat per barallar-me.

 

 

 

 

 

“Estic molt emocionat de tornar a treballar en les meves habilitats de boxa. No puc esperar per oferir als meus fans un gran espectacle. Saben que sempre ho dono tot i ho deixo al ring. Donaré als meus fans el valor dels seus diners.”

 

LEONARD Ellerbe, CEO de Mayweather Promotions

 

 

 

 

 

 

“Dissabte a la nit tenim la carta de boxa més gran i dolenta de tot l'esport. Serà un gran esdeveniment aquí davant dels apassionats fans de la boxa de Brooklyn.

 

 

 

 

 

“L'esdeveniment principal té el campió de quatre divisions Broner enfrontant-se al campió de dues divisions Vargas, en una lluita que significa molt per als dos lluitadors.

 

 

 

 

 

 

“A més, Jermall Charlo s'enfrontarà a Hugo Centeno en una gran lluita de pes mitjà per mirar d'establir-se com a contendents a la classe de pes mitjà amb estrelles..

 

 

 

 

 

“L'iniciador de la nostra retransmissió tindrà una superestrella en ascens de la boxa a Gervonta Davis, lluitant contra l'antic campió del món Jesús Cuéllar en una entretinguda lluita pel títol mundial. Això és el que es tracta la boxa. És molt bo la boxa aquí a Brooklyn.”

 

Lou DiBella, El president de DiBella Entertainment

 

 

 

 

 

“Aquesta és una gran carta de lluita. Per això es venen entrades. Hi ha moltes estrelles emergents en aquesta tarima. Va ser creat per ser una gran boxa televisiva, i per això dissabte tindrem una sala plena.

 

 

 

 

 

“Barclays Center és realment la llar de la boxa de grans dimensions. Aquest és el lloc amb més dedicació a un programa habitual de boxa i ho veus amb les grans baralles que vénen aquí mes rere mes.

 

 

 

 

 

“Aquesta targeta s'apila de dalt a baix. La targeta de fons fora de la televisió és sensacional i compta amb un munt de talent invicte. Heather Hardy tornarà després de dos partits consecutius a la gàbia per tornar al ring en aquest programa. Estem aquí per oferir als fans el millor que podem durant tota la nit.

 

 

 

 

 

“El primer combat televisat de la nit té Gervonta Davis, una de les joves estrelles emergents de l'esport, va pel seu segon títol mundial. Està lluitant contra un antic campió del món a Jesús Cuéllar, que és un noi consumat per dret propi. Gervonta té les mans plenes, però dissabte tindrà molts fans de Maryland que li donen suport.

 

 

 

 

 

“Hi ha molta acció i polèmica a la divisió de pes mitjà. Jermall Charlo podria ser el punxador més dur d'aquesta divisió. Ell i el seu germà podrien ser ja els bessons més aconseguits de la història de la boxa. Té un enfrontament difícil perquè Hugo Centeno Jr. també és un jove lluitador fantàstic amb poder i una gran capacitat de boxa. Té potencial estrella si aconsegueix superar aquest obstacle contra Charlo.

 

 

 

 

 

“Adrien Broner és un boxejador molt hàbil, que té poder d'estrelles i crida molt l'atenció. No has de ser estimat per tothom, has de que la gent vulgui veure't. Molta gent vol veure a Adrien Broner. El veuran en una dura lluita dissabte a la nit. Jessie Vargas ja és dues vegades campiona del món, que ha tingut una carrera fantàstica i, sens dubte, serà el noi més gran i fort dissabte. L'Adrien sap que tot està en joc el dissabte a la nit.”

 

STEPHEN ESPINOZA, President Esports & Programació d'esdeveniments, Showtime Sports Inc.

 

 

 

 

 

“SHOWTIME La boxa es troba enmig d'una carrera sense precedents. Ha estat una lluita significativa rere una lluita significativa.

 

 

 

 

 

“Al gener vam fer un anunci sense precedents 11 esdeveniments d'aquesta primera part de l'any. No estic segur que cap xarxa hagi fet tants esdeveniments aquest any.

 

 

 

 

 

“Barclays Center, com SHOWTIME, s'ha convertit en la llar de les baralles més significatives de l'esport. Això no passa per casualitat. Aquesta és una estratègia intencionada. És un pla per promoure i elevar l'esport i el seu’ lluitadors a altures que no hem vist abans. Hem fet un esforç real per elevar aquest esport.

 

 

 

 

 

“La targeta apilada de dissabte té tres enfrontaments imprescindibles. Aquests són lluitadors estrella contra batalles d'estrelles. No hi ha "no-noms".’ en això. Els sis lluitadors d'aquí tenen lluites encapçalades. Aquestes baralles són tan bones com qualsevol carta que recordi.”

 

BRETT Yormark, CEO de Brooklyn Sports & Entreteniment

 

 

 

 

 

“Estic emocionat amb les baralles de dissabte a la nit. Està ple de dalt a baix i hauria de ser una gran nit de BROOKLYN BOXING. És un gran tripleheader i en molts aspectes això defineix la boxa de Brooklyn. Lluites igualades, les estrelles més grans de l'esport, alguns establerts i altres en augment. Tens una mica de tot aquest cap de setmana

 

 

 

 

 

“Estem molt emocionats de tenir Heather Hardy de tornada al Barclays Center dissabte després d'algunes baralles a MMA.. És boxejadora i no podem esperar a tenir-la aquí aquest cap de setmana.

 

 

 

 

 

“Moltes gràcies a tots els que han ajudat a establir BROOKLYN BOXING i han estat socis amb nosaltres aquí a Brooklyn. Tots els implicats continuen augmentant l'esport i us esperem dissabte a la nit. Les entrades es mouen i aquesta podria ser una de les baralles més grans que hem tingut mai al Barclays Center.”

Jermall Charlo & Hugo Centeno Jr. Discuss Upcoming Showdown Saturday, Abril 21 Live on SHOWTIME from Barclays Center in Brooklyn

Leave a comment

Charlo & Centeno Battle for Interim WBC Middleweight Title

In Premier Boxing Champions Event

BROOKLYN (Abril 13, 2018) – Undefeated former world champion Jermall Charlo and once-beaten contender Hugo Centeno Jr. discussed their upcoming matchup before they step into the ring on Saturday, Abril 21 for the WBC Interim Middleweight Title live on SHOWTIME from Barclays Center, la casa de BROOKLYN BOXA.

 

 

 

The Premier Boxing Champions event is headlined by a showdown between four-division world champion Adrien Broner i campió del món de dues divisions Jessie Vargas. La boxa del campionat Showtime® transmissió comença a 9 p.m. ET / 6 pm. PT with former world champions Gervonta Davis i Jesús Cuellar battling for the WBA 130-pound Super Featherweight World Championship.

 

 

 

Les entrades per a l'esdeveniment en viu, que està promogut per Mayweather Promotions, DiBella Entertainment i Promocions TGB, comença a $50 i es pot comprar aticketmaster.com, barclayscenter.com o trucant al 800-745-3000. Les entrades també es poden comprar a la taquilla d'American Express del Barclays Center. Descomptes per a grups estan disponibles trucant al 844-BKLYN-GP.

 

 

 

El Charlo vs. Centeno bout was moved from an original date of March 3 due to a Centeno rib injury, and now the rescheduled bout is just over a week away, with Centeno fully recovered from the ailment.

 

 

 

“My ribs are fine,” Said Centeno. “It was a minor injury, but there was no way I could have fought on our originally scheduled date when it happened. I feel great now though. It healed perfectly.”

 

 

 

Centeno will now finally face Charlo, the former 154-pound champion and one half of the devastatingly powerful Charlo twins, along with his brother, current 154-pound champion Jermell. For Jermall, this fight is a chance to begin making his mark in a second division.

 

 

 

“I want to send a message to the world that I’m going to dominate the 160-pound division, while my brother proves he’s the best 154-pounder on the planet,” Said Charlo. “Once I get my shot, you will all see what I’m talking about. Hugo Centeno Jr. is just in the way of that process. After April 21, you’ll be able to see what I’m really made of.”

 

 

 

As Centeno winds down training camp at Wild Card Boxing in Hollywood with head trainer Eric Brown, he has made sure to focus on what will happen April 21 instead of any pre-fight talk or hype.

 

 

 

“I am just excited by this opportunity,” Said Centeno. “Charlo can say whatever he wants. None of it is going to affect me. A l'abril 21, it’s just me and him in that ring and anything can happen.

 

 

 

“This has been another great camp for me, even with the injury hitch. I’m a night owl who likes to train at all hours. We go late into the night and I think that helps me on fight night.”

 

 

 

Centeno put himself back into the ranks of middleweight contenders with a highlight reel knockout of Immanuwel Aleem last August. Charlo, però, knows that he will pose a different set of problems for Centeno.

 

 

 

“I’m not Immanuwel Aleem and I’ll let you all see that when April 21 gets here,” Said Charlo. “It’s a whole different ball game when you get in there trying to trade with me. You better have power, so I hope he’s ready for it.”

 

 

 

Charlo has been hard at work in his hometown of Houston, working with head trainer Ronnie Shields. With the extended training camp, Charlo has had time to improve on his already lethal arsenal.

 

 

 

“I’m still improving as a fighter,” Said Charlo. “I’ve gotten faster, sharper and I’m able to take more punches than I used to. I’ve been working hard to increase my punch output as well. Nobody can do what I’m doing in the ring.

 

 

 

“Boxing is all about adjusting and that’s what I’m good at. That’s my best attribute and my team has worked with me so I can make that adjustment on fight night. We always go into the ring ready to fight a different fight than the time before.”

 

 

 

With fight night nearing, both fighters are gearing up to head to Brooklyn with the hopes of announcing themselves as a danger in the 160-pound division on April 21.

 

 

 

 

“I’ve fought on some big stages in my career, but nothing compares to this,” Said Centeno. “This is my first title shot and I’m going to take full advantage. I’m not worried about Charlo or being the underdog or anything really. I know I have what it takes to win this fight.”

 

 

 

“Hugo is in the way of my process right now,” Said Charlo. “I’ve got to go through him to get to my goal. We’ll see if he’s able to hold up against the power, speed and athleticism that I have. Sinó, Vaig a fer-li mal, real bad.”

Vargas conducted the media workout from Mayweather Boxing Club as he prepares for the pivotal matchup against Broner. Això és el que Vargas, McCallum i CEO Mayweather Promotions Leonard Ellerbe havia de dir dijous:

 

JESSIE VARGAS

 

 

 

“Adrien Broner and I are entertaining fighters who come in and give it our all. This is a fight that will have a lot of fireworks.

 

 

 

“I brought in a nutritionist for camp who has done a great job informing me of some things that I’ve never done before in my career. I feel stronger and I’ve been finishing up this camp stronger than normal.

 

 

 

“If he comes to fight me on the inside then that’s going to feed right into my game plan. Bring it on. If he wants to come and fight, then we’ll pick him apart bit by bit. We’re ready for any type of fight. Un cop senti el meu poder, he’s going to back up and choose a better route.

 

 

 

“I’m going to switch it up. I’m here to give the fans entertainment. Some moments I’ll go after him and some moments I’ll be the counter-puncher. It’ll be based off what he brings to the ring and we’ll take it from there.

 

 

 

“If Broner feels that he’s going to perform better with coach Kevin Cunningham, then good for him. I want to face the best Adrien Broner. I don’t want any excuses after this. I’m looking forward to beating the best Broner possible on April 21.

 

 

 

“Adrien is fast and explosive, but we’re prepared for it. I have those same skills too. We’ve had great sparring including Devin Haney and Phil Lo Greco just to name a couple. These guys have been able to elevate my skills.

 

 

 

“I feel very fortunate that coach McCallum was able to take on the task of training me and I’m happy to be in my second fight with him. We feel like we’ve already accomplished so much in this relatively short amount of time we’ve been working together.

 

 

 

“Coach McCallum is a tremendous trainer who’s been able to teach me some different techniques. Obviously he’s known as ‘The Bodysnatcher’, so we’ve worked on body shots, but he also knew how to maintain his distance and he emphasizes the mental game. He tells me how he saw every situation during a fight.

 

 

 

“Throughout every round and every day coach is on top of me to make sure I’m feeling good and that my energy is at the right level. He tells me exactly what I need and it’s gotten me here and in the best shape of my career.

 

 

 

“This is a fight that should garner a lot of attention from boxing fans. They deserve a fight like this. It’s two guys coming in at the top of their game and only one of us can take this step forward in our career.

 

 

 

“I’m planning on having my hand-raised in victory. I’ve worked hard in camp so that I can go out there and prove to everyone that I’m a threat to any fighter out there.”

 

MIKE MCCALLUM, Vargas’ Entrenador

 

 

 

 

“We picked up where we left off from Jessie’s last fight in December. He has all the tools he needs, I’m just here to make sure he knows how and when to use them in the ring.

 

 

 

“Everybody knows Broner is a good fighter. It’s going to be an exciting matchup because Jessie is in shape and ready to go.

 

 

 

“We’re ready to fight any kind of style that will beat Broner. We know we’re going to have to box, if he has to do it for 12 rondes, Jessie will be ready. Once they get in close, Jessie has a good punch too and that might surprise Broner.”

 

LEONARD Ellerbe, CEO de Mayweather Promotions

 

 

 

“This is the best card in the sport right now. The main event is a sensational bout. Això és un 50-50 lluita. Both guys need to win this. In Jessie’s case, this win will elevate him with the other elite welterweights that are out there.

 

 

 

“Aquesta és una lluita enorme. It’s a great fight for the fans and we’re very proud to be helping promote this event. It’s going to be a great night and thrilling main event.”

Broner and Davis are sharing camp in West Palm Beach for the first time under the guidance of head trainer Kevin Cunningham, a former St. Louis police officer who has worked with former world champions Devon Alexander and Cory Spinks.

 

 

 

Here is what the fighters, plus coach Cunningham, had to say about camp, Abril 21 i més:

 

Adrien Broner

On changing trainers…

“I felt like it was time to change. I hear people say, ‘You are expected to change but you don’t, that’s why you end up in the same spots over and over’. Així, I have to change something to get a different result. That’s why I had to step outside of the box and go for it.

 

 

 

“I had to change things. I had to add to my repertoire because I’m getting all that I can do out of what I’m doing but I keep coming up short for these fights that I’m supposed to be winning. Així, it was time for a change.

 

 

 

“Looking back at all of my defeats, the only real punishment that I’ve taken in this sport was against [Marc] Maidana-I got a fractured jaw. In the Shawn Porter fight, he outwrestled me and in the Mikey [García] lluita, he just outworked me. Així, it’s time to add to my team and that’s why I got coach Kevin Cunningham. He’s going to bring out the best of Adrien Broner.”

 

On why he chose Kevin Cunningham?

“I’ve known Coach Cunningham since my amateur days. We used to go up to St. Louis all the time and fight in his tournaments, on his shows. I have even fought for St. Louis in the Ringside Tournament. Va ser una gran experiència.

 

 

 

 

 

“I’ve known Coach Cunningham for a long time. He is the real deal He is not going to B.S. em. He’s going to keep me on my toes. I need that.

 

 

 

 

“There are coaches that change when their fighters get to certain levels. They still coach, but they don’t provide the structure the fighter needs. When I was fighting at 130, 135, Coach Mike [Stafford] will be at my door yelling ‘Get your butt up. We have to run. We have to train. Get up! Get up!’ But time went by and things changed.

 

 

 

 

 

“Coach Mike stopped being a coach and started being more of a friend. I needed him to keep being my coach. I need someone to keep me in line. No em malinterpretes, he’ll always be like a father figure but when it comes to training and my career. I needed a change.”

 

Al camp d'entrenament…

“I’m very happy with this camp. It’s just what I needed. I’m catching up with sleep, eating well. The isolated training is really good. I love everything about this camp.

 

 

 

 

 

“Training in isolation is really good for me. I told everybody that they were not coming to Florida with me, that I will see them all after the fight and that if they really love me they will understand the situation and they will be cool with it.

 

 

 

 

“I actually did a camp with Coach Kevin before when Devon Alexander fought Timothy Bradley. And I’ve seen the way he is. We had our arguments and he cussed me out almost every day, but I was just missing the structure and that’s what I need.”

 

On how he felt after losing to Mikey Garcia…

“I was upset. Al final de la dia, nobody fixes my problems but me. I can take care of everybody when they have a problem, but nobody fixes my problems. There are one or two people that are there for me but at the end of the day, I told myself I have to get my life and career together.”

 

Reflecting on his career…

“I started my career young. I won titles in four weight classes. I’ve accomplished a lot and there’s still more to come. I got a lot of fighting left to do.”

 

GERVONTA DAVIS

On why he decided to do training camp with Kevin Cunningham…

“I was actually going to go to Colorado to train, but Adrien invited me to come down here to West Palm Beach to check out the camp. He said I should come to Florida to train with him and Kevin. So I came down, I saw Kevin’s routine and I really liked it.

 

 

 

 

“There were a lot of distractions in Baltimore and I think they were a problem for me. I needed to straighten my head and focus on the things I have to work on. It was time to set my camp somewhere else.

 

 

 

 

“I needed a change after my last fight. I let myself down. I learned to be a different fighter, more responsible. I let others down, but think I let myself down more than anything.”

On becoming one of the youngest champions in boxing…

“I was one of the youngest world champions in boxing. It is not that I was not prepared for it. I was just so young and it happened so quickly. I had to adapt to it. Live up to the hype. It was hard.”

 

En el seu oponent, Jesús Cuellar…

“I’m not really into researching my opponents-or other fighters other than the ones that I like. I just train hard and fight who is in front of me. I know a little bit about him [Jesús Cuellar]. I know that he can hit, that he’s not going to back down and that he’s a tough opponent. I believe he’s my toughest opponent to date. A l'abril 21, we will see if he is ready. I know for sure I will be.”

On life in training camp when not at the gym…
“We have a big house that the coach provided for us. We all live together-Adrien and I. We go swimming and to the movies. We just chill. We are being responsible. No South Beach, no clubbing. Just training hard.”

On his relationship with Adrien Broner…

“What people don’t know is that I’ve been around Adrien since I was younger. I looked up to him. When Adrien came on the scene, he was super sharp and fast. I remember him. He used to come to the amateur tournaments.

 

 

 

 

“Adrien is like a big brother to me. We are just like a little brother, germà gran. We are very competitive. We do not say it but we always want to outdo each other. Per exemple, I usually run faster than he does, but sometimes he beats me. Yesterday he ran so fast I could not catch him. So today, I took the lead and ran even faster. We push each other to our best.”

On his plans for the future…

“I want to win more belts. I want to become a big star in boxing. I am going to put my work in the gym, put on a great performance in the ring and get back on track to become a world champion again.

 

 

 

 

“Being a world champion again is just a step closer towards my goal: I want to be a pay-per-view star. I want to be able to fight on pay-per-view against the big fighters and do big numbers.”

 

KEVIN CUNNINGHAM

On his relationship with Adrien Broner…

“I’ve known Adrian Broner for a very long time. I think I’ve known him since he was like eight years old and 60 lliura. He’s always been an extremely talented fighter. When he was a kid he was one of the most talented kids. He has always had boatloads of talent.”

 

On Broner’s shortcomings as a fighter…

“I think sometimes, he could be a little more focused and have a little more discipline in a lot of the different things he’s doing. I think he’s trying to turn the corner and get things moving in the right direction.”

 

On what caused Broner to come up short in recent big fights at higher weights…

“There are several things that could cause him to lose focus and come up a little short in some of the major fights. Some of it is the focus but there needs to be a little more discipline in terms of the training aspect and more structure. I think that’s what we’re working on here.”

 

On what he can do to improve Broner’s game…

“I think coming over here with me, he’s finding a lot more structure in the training aspect. It’s a totally different training program that I have him doing. I think that he’s ready for some new leadership. He’s ready to be a little more disciplined in his profession and I think it’s going to show on the 21st.”

 

On why this time will be different…

“I’ve heard from him like everybody has, but this time Broner really has done everything possible to rectify the situations that needed to be straightened out to help him propel his career and get back moving in the right direction – and it’s not just his boxing career; it’s also as a person – his personal life – and I’m here to help him out with that. He’s really working hard to get it right this time.”

 

On his history and background as a trainer and how it applies here…

“I’m known to be a stern and disciplined trainer, entrenador, and teacher. I’ve got a military and police background, so I don’t play a lot of games. We’re serious and we’re about business. When Broner made the decision to come with me, I knew that he was ready to take his career seriously because he knows what it’s like being here with me. He has to be about business, he has to be serious, and he has to be focused and disciplined. He made the choice to have me take over his training and take the lead as his head trainer and that’s what he’s getting when he’s dealing with me.”

 

On how he and Broner came together…

“A couple of weeks after the Mikey Garcia fight, he called me and he told me he was thinking about making some changes and that he wanted me to consider being his guide and taking the lead as head trainer. He asked me what I thought about that and I said, ‘You know what you’re getting when you come to me and if you’re going to be serious and focused about this, I’ll give you all I’ve got.’ And he said, ‘I’m serious.’ We started training together before camp started and I just saw a different look in his eyes. Ever since camp started he’s been nothing but hard work, dedicació, and focus.”

 

On if he had any fears about their partnership…

“I told him upfront what I expected and what we needed to do and how things had to go. I told him that if he wasn’t ready to adhere to what I’m expecting, he shouldn’t waste his time or mine. He has done everything I’ve asked of him. Everything and more. He’s going to show that he’s ready to get himself together. He’s going to show the world onApril 21 that he’s rededicated himself, he’s ready to reclaim the thrown.”
