The hotly contested first match between Dirrell and Uzcategui, which was also for the IBF interim world title, ended in controversy after Uzcategui was disqualified for landing a punch after the bell sounded to end the eighth round. Dirrell was dropped and knocked out by the punch. The referee ruled that the punch was intentional and disqualified Uzcategui.

Uzcategui dropped Jackson four times on the way to a second round technical knockout victory.
I’m very excited to go get what’s mine,” said Uzcategui. “I feel I won the last fight. I didn’t feel I did anything wrong. What happened in the last fight is in the past. I’m going to get what belongs to me. The world will see what ‘Bolivitacan do and they’ll want to see more of me.

LOS ANGELES (Tháng Hai. 9, 2018) – Just days after the birth of his daughter, American heavyweight world champion Deontay Wilder met with members of the Southern California media vào ngày thứ Năm as he prepares to defend his WBC Heavyweight World Championship against fellow-undefeated challenger Luis Ortiz Thứ bảy, Tháng ba 3 sống trên SHOWTIME từ Barclays Center, the home of BROOKLYN BOXING™.
Wilder and his girlfriend, fellowWAGS Atlantastar Telli Swift welcomed their daughter into the world vào thứ ba before Wilder turned his focus to Tháng ba 3, climbing in the ring at Team Watson Boxing Club in the San Fernando Valley to work out with his Los Angeles-based trainer Mark Breland, the former U.S. Olympics gold medalist and former WBC Welterweight World Champion.
The 32-year-old Wilder owns a perfect record of 39 thắng, zero losses and 38 knockout. Fighting out of his hometown of Tuscaloosa, Ala., ông là một 2008 Olympic Bronze Medalist and is the only reigning American heavyweight world champion. The 6-foot-7 Wilder faces the toughest opponent of his career in Ortiz, a 6-foot-4 Cuban who owns a professional record of 28-0 với 24 knockout.
Here is what Wilder had to say vào ngày thứ Năm:
DEONTAY WILDER:
Once I unify all the titles then line up the mandatories, I’ll easily get to 50-0. I’m not a 12-round fighter, and I don’t get overtime. I’m a knockout artist. So that being said, I don’t take much damage, but I give all the damage. I put people in the hospitals. I put people in stretchers. When you fight me your head is not the same when you leave. When you fight me you’re really signing a death warrant.
This is one of the biggest fights of my career and I’m up for the challenge. I’m going to pass with flying colors.
Ortiz has got that reputation of being the bogeyman but I’ve never been scared of the bogeyman. For that reason, I wanted him. A lot of people have been avoiding him, even champions that are champions to this day have avoided Luis Ortiz. But this champion right here took on the opportunity.
Even when [Ortiz] failed the drug test once, I still blessed him again because I’m very adamant about what I want to do. Tôi muốn chiến đấu tốt nhất. I say I’m the best. I say it very proudly, I say it very confidently. I say it so boldly and I want to show the world that I don’t play around. If I say it, I really mean what I say. I don’t have time to waste.
If he fails again then somebody’s going to need to go whoop his ass. The public needs to whoop his ass. All of Miami should get up and do that. The first time, a lot of people spent a lot of time and a lot of money for tickets and he did what he did. A lot of people were enraged. I heard it and a lot of people blamed me, which I don’t know why. Nhưng, with this fight right here and what I did with my last performance, it makes it even better. It intensifies the whole fight. Như vậy, if he [fails his drug test again] then shame on him. I feel sorry for his soul and his life. I don’t think he’s going to do that. I think he has a lot of responsibilities in his hands right now. At this point in time he knows he needs to do the right thing. Three times is not the charm in all instances.
I don’t focus on what these guys are doing. I don’t focus on what their strengths are. I just focus on me. I focus on what I’m capable of doing. I focus on what I’m going to do and when I tell people I’m going to do something, you know I’m going to do it. At the end of the day that’s what my father taught me. There weren’t any contracts back in the day, it was just the shake of a hand. And if you said something and you didn’t abide by it, there’s consequences to your actions, to your words. To this day, I abide by that. Như vậy, if I say I’m going to do something it’s guaranteed to be done.
On his lifestyle outside of boxing:
I just think life itself is just mental. I do a lot of visualization. I do a lot of meditation. It strengthens my mind to go through a lot of the situations that I go through. Having a baby and being on a reality show, all of that is fun stuff. Some people know how to maintain it and some people don’t. I’m just a guy that multitasks a lot of things. I can do a lot of things. Even when I’m talking to you, my mind can be in so many different places right now and still be able to comprehend and interact with you. Như vậy, I think I was meant for a lot of things. Boxing is just not what all I can do. I’m so talented in so many different areas.
I’m a laid back guy. In my personal life I’m just a cool, calm and collected dude that likes to live life and I love peace. Không may, in what I do in the ring, I turn into the ‘Bronze Bomberand the ‘Bronze Bomberdon’t get caught by none.
On being on reality TV and recognized by non-boxing fans:
I think it’s very important. People need to know who the heavyweight champion of the world is. America got a bad man, an ass-whooper, right in America. I think it’s important and people should understand and should know who that is. That’s why I do the things I do. That’s why I’m so competitive. That’s why I speak the way I speak. Sometimes it may annoy people, it may get on people’s nerves and I never hear it in front of my face, but I understand it. I do it to show people that I’m going to speak it and you’re going to see me deliver it. I think you get the most respect when you say something you’re going to do and you do it. Look at Ali, people hated him. They say he was a big mouth who ran his mouth too much but he proved himself many times and that’s that thing I want to do. I want to speak what I say I’m going to do and you watch me work.
On Anthony Joshua:
I want him just as bad as everybody else wants him. If it was up to me, we would’ve been fighting two years ago. I’ve been calling this man out. When they hyped him up and said he was this, said he was that. I’m the type of person that I get happy for other people. With me and my happiness and me being successful, that’s all up to me. It ain’t up to nobody else. Như vậy, when I see other people doing great things, when I see good things coming to other people, I get happy for other people. It’s a hard thing for people to get happy for other people because things don’t happen for them but I’m not like that because I know my blessings will sure enough come. All I got to do is keep working.
I come in peace all of the time but with him, I don’t think Joshua wants to fight me. His promoters don’t want him to fight me. They’re on the goal of trying to build this resume, saying they want to be the first billionaires, stuff like that. But doing that, the plans all end with me. All roads lead to me. I’m not going nowhere, no time soon. They know black don’t crack. Như vậy, I’m going to be around for a long time. I ain’t the best heavyweight in the division. I’m the best heavyweight on this earth. I’m just waiting on the opportunity to prove it.
Prediction on Joshua-Parker:
I’ve always said ‘later rounds’. I see that fight going later rounds if Joseph Parker is smart in what he does. He has nice movement and is able to execute on all of the opportunities that he sees with Joshua. Because Joshua can’t move his head. He’s a muscle, body-building type of guy. You’ve seen my dance? [chuckles] Với ý, if he’s able to calculate what he needs to do in the ringbecause the ring has a lot of secretsif he’s able to do things he needs to do, I see late rounds. Nhưng, like I said before, I think they’re going to have to knock Joshua out because they’re not going to give it to him.
Prediction for Tháng ba 3:
People ask me the round and I always see threes. This year is a magical year. It’s the year of the 33. Như vậy, I see threes everywhere. I see three rounds or less, maybe shorter than that. It all depends on how I feel when I see him.

Here is what Charlo and his trainer Ronnie Shields had to say Thứ năm from Charlo Boxing and Fitness Club in Houston:
Charlo JERMALL
It’s going to be a tough fight against Hugo Centeno Jr. If he can stand up to my power, we’re going to fight and it’ll be a brutal war. If he can’t, I’ll take him out in the first round.
We can’t let Houston down now. My brother and I have made it this far. We can’t stop now. It’s my turn to put on a spectacular performance on March 3. I’m trying to one-up my brother’s previous performance each time I step in there.
My goal is to show everybody that I’m the best middleweight in the world. I’m going to keep fighting everyone they put in front of me. I’m going to knock them out one-by-one until Canelo or Golovkin have to face me.
I’ve had the chance to work on some improvements to my game since my last fight. I think having even more patience in the ring is going to help step my game up even higher. I want to be a champion at middleweight more than I did at 154-pounds.
“Hugo Centeno Jr. is another fighter who is in my way. I know he’ll come in prepared, but I’m confident I’m going to walk out of there with the victory.
This is going to be a big year for me and my brother. We’re going to keep showing everyone why we’re so feared.
RONNIE SHIELDS, Trainer Charlo của
Jermall looks great in training camp and we expect him to be at his best come Tháng ba 3. He’s motivated to put on a good show and prove to everyone he’s a force in this division.
Hugo Centeno is a quality fighter. He’s well-trained and has length, so Jermall knows he has to be prepared. Centeno isn’t going to let him win, Jermall is going to have to go in and impose his will on the man.
I believe Jermall has the talent and determination to beat any of the top middleweights out there. We’re going to keep working every day so that when the time comes for one of those fights with a Golovkin or Canelo, he’ll be prepared to take advantage of the opportunity.

HEAVYWEIGHT WORLD CHAMPION DEONTAY WILDER MAKES SEVENTH DEFENSE AGAINST UNDEFEATED CONTENDER LUIS ORTIZ SATURDAY, MARCH 3 Từ Barclays CENTER TRÊN BROOKLYN & PRESENTED BY PREMIER BOXING CHAMPIONS

CŨNG IN ACTION! UNDEFEATED FORMER WORLD CHAMPION JERMALL CHARLO BATTLES ONCE-BEATEN HUGO CENTENO JR. FOR INTERIM 160-POUND TITLE
IN CO-FEATURE
BROOKLYN (Jan. 23, 2018) – Undefeated WBC Heavyweight World Champion Deontay “The Bronze Bomber” Wilder will face his toughest opponent to date when he meets hard-hitting Cuban southpaw Luis “The Real King Kong” Ortiz Thứ bảy, Tháng ba 3 từ Barclays Center, the home of BROOKLYN BOXING™ and presented by Premier Boxing Champions.
The co-feature of the evening will see the return of undefeated former 154-pound world champion Jermall Charlo, a powerful knockout artist who is looking to prove that he is a dangerous contender in the star-studded middleweight division. Once-beaten contender Hugo Centeno Jr. will test Charlo’s 160-pound credentials when they meet in a 12-round match to determine the WBC interim champion, with the winner immediately stepping into the picture for middleweight supremacy.
Tickets for the show, được khuyến khích bởi chương trình khuyến mãi DIBELLA Entertainment và TGB, bắt đầu từ $50 và được bán ngay bây giờ. Để mua vé, visit Ticketmaster.com, BarclaysCenter.com, hoặc cuộc gọi 800-745-3000. Tickets for the event can also be purchased at the American Express Box Office at Barclays Center.
We’re very excited to bring the heavyweight champion of the world, Deontay Wilder, back to Brooklyn for his seventh title defense and third appearance at Barclays Center, the home of BROOKLYN BOXING™,” Lou nói DIBELLA, Chủ tịch DIBELLA Entertainment. “This fight is happening because Deontay wanted to silence his critics by taking on the biggest challenge available. Deontay has an axe to grind with Ortiz and will swing it on March 3. Former 154-lb. champion Jermall Charlo is already a top player at middleweight and plans to prove he’s carried his power with him by facing one of the division’s best prospects, Hugo Centeno Jr., who is coming off a huge knockout victory in his last fight.
Deontay Wilder and Luis Ortiz is one of the best fights that can be made in the heavyweight division and itswhat heavyweights are all aboutpower versus power,” said Tom Brown, Chủ tịch TGB Khuyến mãi. “Everybody loves the knockout and that’s what Wilder and Ortiz specialize in. Trong trường hợp chính, Jermall Charlo is strictly seek and destroy in the ring. That ferocious spirit made him a force at 154 and he has brought it with him to the 160 pound ranks. Centeno is a rugged competitor and he doesn’t back down from anyone. That makes this a can’t miss fight for the boxing fans.
True heavyweights in every sense of the word, the 6-foot-7, 228-pound Wilder and the 6-foot-4, 240-pound Ortiz have 62 combined knockout victories.
The 32-year-old Wilder (39-0, 38 Kos), the only reigning American heavyweight world champion, is a knockout artist with the power to end any fight in spectacular fashion. His only professional match that went the distance was the fight in which he won his world title with a dominant 12-round unanimous decision over Bermane Stiverne on Jan. 17, 2015 -the birthday of legendary heavyweight champion Muhammad Ali. The champion out of Tuscaloosa, Alabama added Stiverne to his list of knockout victims in his last fight with a devastating first round destruction in their rematch at Barclays Center on Tháng mười một. 4.
Wilder was originally supposed to fight Ortiz that night, but Ortiz was pulled from the match after he tested positive for a banned substance. Ortiz was later cleared after the WBC determined he had failed to list medication that he was taking on his pre-testing paperwork, which triggered the positive test. He was assessed a fine and allowed to resume boxing.
Wilder, a Bronze Medal winner for the U.S. Olympic boxing team at the 2008 Beijing Games, has successfully defended the title six times. This will be his third title defense at Barclays Center. In his first defense at Barclays Center, Wilder scored a memorable ninth-round knockout over Artur Szpilka back in Jan. 2016.
I’m looking forward to returning to Barclays Center to defend my title for a seventh time,” Wilder nói. “Luis Ortiz is one of the toughest guys around and he’s supposed to be the boogeyman in the heavyweight division. But I’ve never been afraid of the boogeyman and I’ve knocked out every opponent that I’ve faced. I plan on keeping that streak going. Everyone standing in my way of becoming the undisputed heavyweight champion has to go down. It’s Luis Ortiz’s turn.
The 38-year-old Ortiz (28-0, 24 Kos), of Camaguey, Cuba by way of Miami, Fla., will make his Barclays Center debut when he meets Wilder for his first title shot. The hard-hitting southpaw turned pro seven years ago after defecting from Cuba and has since been steadily climbing the heavyweight ladder. He cemented his standing in the division with victories over veteran contenders Bryant Jennings, Tony Thompson and Malik Scott and is the No. 1-ranked contender by the WBC. Trong cuộc chiến gần đây nhất của ông, Ortiz scored a devastating second-round knockout of Daniel Martz in Miami, Florida trên Tháng mười hai. 15.
If Ortiz wins, he will become the first Cuban born fighter to win a heavyweight world championship.
This really is the best versus the best as far as the heavyweight division, and everyone who knows boxing knows that,” Ortiz said. “There’s been too much talking already. It’s time to fight. All I ask now is that the winner of this fight receives the respect from the other man, from the public, from the media and the fans that they deserve as the best heavyweight in the U.S.
Charlo (26-0, 20 Kos) won his super welterweight title with a dominant knockout of Cornelius Bundrage in 2015 and eventually achieved the distinction of holding a world title in the same weight class (154 pounds) as his twin brother after Jermell won a title in 2016. After successfully defending his 154-pound title three times, Charlo of Richmond, Texas decided to move up to 160 pounds to win another title in a different weight class. In his debut at 160-pounds the 27-year-old scored a TKO victory over Jorge Sebastian Heiland at Barclays Center on Tháng bảy 29.
I really love fighting in Brooklyn and at Barclays Center,” Said Charlo. “The fans in Brooklyn always show me a lot of love. Since my last fight I’ve had a chance to work on my patience and work on improvements to my game. I’ve got the same feeling that I had before I won my first world title. I want to be a champion at 160 more than I did the first time at 154. More than anything I just want to get back in the ring. Centeno is a tough fighter. He’ll be a hard test for someone who isn’t at my level. Tôi không lấy bất cứ thứ gì ra khỏi anh. But he’s just another fighter that’s in my way. I don’t feel like I have anything to prove to anyone else in this fight. I’m all about proving things to myself now. In the 160-pound division you’re hearing my name more and more. It’s more than you did when I was at 154 pounds.”
The 26-year-old Centeno (26-1, 14 Kos) caught everyone’s attention when he scored a stunning knockout of Immanuwel Aleem in his last fight on Tháng Tám. 25. It was enough to springboard Centeno into middleweight title contention. Centeno of Oxnard, California successfully rebounded from a tough TKO loss to Maiej Sulecki on June 18, 2016 with a victory over Ronald Montes before his match against Aleem.
I’m excited for the opportunity,” said Centeno. “I think my last outing had a lot to do with this/ It helped to put me in this position. Charlo is a great fighter with a lot of talent. I feel like we have similar statures. It’s going to be an interesting fight. I think it’s going to come down to who is the smarter fighter that night and who has more left in the tank toward the end. This is a life-changing, career-changing fight for me that could lead to bigger and better things. I’m coming to win.

Peterson, đã chiến đấu dũng cảm chống lại Spence trẻ, tôn trọng quyết định của huấn luyện viên của mình để ngăn chặn cuộc chiến, “Nếu anh hỏi tôi để chống lại một triệu người, Tôi sẽ. Nếu anh ta yêu cầu tôi dừng lại. tôi sẽ dừng lại. Tôi sẽ không bao giờ nghi ngờ quyết định của mình. Tôi biết anh ấy có lợi ích tốt nhất của tôi lúc trái tim.”

 

 

 

“Đó là thực sự khó khăn, nhưng nếu bạn biết Lamont, Bạn có biết anh sẽ không từ bỏ,”Nói huấn luyện viên Barry Hunter. “Tôi đã phải ngăn chặn nó. Vào cuối ngày, đây là con trai tôi ngay tại đây. Không có gì quý hơn hạnh phúc của mình là. Nếu nói đến anh ta hoặc chiến thắng, Tôi đón anh. Tôi quan tâm đến anh ấy.”

 

 

Undefeated 135-pound world champion Robert Phục Sinh (21-0, 14 Kos) earned a split decision victory over former world champion Javier Fortuna (33-2-1, 23 Kos) trong trường hợp đồng chính của chương trình truyền hình SHOWTIME. Các thẩm phán ghi bout 114-113, 113-114 và 115-112.

 

 

 

Bout back-và-ra thấy hai máy bay chiến đấu có tay nghề cao ở trong túi và tìm kiếm để làm tổn thương từ bên trong. Một điểm tròn khấu trừ thứ hai từ Fortuna tỏ ra tốn kém khi Dominican đã được cảnh báo và sau đó bị phạt vì đánh Phục phía sau đầu. Nếu không có khấu trừ một điểm, cuộc chiến có thể đã được ghi một trận hòa. Trong khi Phục Sinh Jr. là hơi bận rộn, Fortuna landed cú đấm mạnh hơn. Phục Jr., người đã tổ chức một lợi thế chiều cao đáng kể, ra hạ cánh Fortuna, kết nối trên 120 của 383 (31 phần trăm) cú đấm quyền lực trong khi Fortuna kết nối trên 113 của 441 (26 phần trăm).

 

 

 

“Đó là một cuộc chiến khó khăn, ông là một cựu vô địch thế giới vì một lý do,”Phục Sinh nói với Grey. “Chúng tôi đã làm cho nó khó khăn cố gắng để đối phó với cú đấm. Ông không ném nhiều và nó đã gây khó khăn cho tôi để đuổi theo anh chàng này xung quanh.

 

 

 

“Tôi không thể có được loại trực tiếp nhưng chúng tôi đã nhận chiến thắng và đó là tất cả những gì quan trọng. Tôi biết anh ta sẽ chạy một lần anh cảm thấy sức mạnh của tôi. Ông chỉ muốn lấy và giữ toàn bộ cuộc chiến “.

 

 

 

nhìn về phía trước, Phục làm mục đích của hắn rõ ràng khi ông tìm cơn thống nhất đất nước trong tương lai gần, “Tôi muốn để chống lại nhà vô địch và thống nhất các đai. Chiến đấu như thế này là không trong kế hoạch trò chơi của tôi. Tôi đã sẵn sàng cho Mikey Garcia và Jorge Linares để ký hợp đồng.”

 

 

 

Một Fortuna bất mãn cũng đã nói chuyện với màu xám, “Công chúng biết những gì xảy ra ở đây. Họ la ó vì họ biết rằng tôi đã thắng cuộc chiến này.

 

 

 

“Nếu anh ấy là một người đàn ông chúng ta hãy chiến đấu một lần nữa tại 135-pound,”Fortuna nói, who failed to make weight on two attempts Thứ sáu, điều này có nghĩa rằng vành đai Lễ phục sinh sẽ không được trên dòng. “Tôi chắc chắn sẽ làm cho trọng lượng. Tôi đã không đưa ra bản thân mình có đủ thời gian để đào tạo “.

 

 

 

Unbeaten light heavyweight contender Marcus Browne (21-0, 16 Kos) thực hiện công việc nhanh chóng của Francy Ntetu (17-2, 4 Kos) trong SHOWTIME vô địch đấm bốc Prelims hành động, as he dropped and battered his opponent early to force referee Arthur Mercante to stop the bout at just 2:15 của vòng đầu tiên. Đấu tranh cho mình 12th time at the Barclays Center, các 27 Staten Island mẹ đẻ tuổi giữ kỷ lục không tì vết của mình nguyên vẹn bằng cách sử dụng tay trái mạnh mẽ của mình trên Ntetu overmatched.

 

 

 

Browne lập sự thống trị của mình ngay từ đầu, hạ cánh một trái overhand sạch giảm Ntetu nửa vòng. Montreal, Québec bản địa không bao giờ có thể lấy lại đôi chân của mình và thấy mình bị dồn chống lại những sợi dây thừng chỉ ba mươi giây sau. Một loạt những sự kết hợp mạnh mẽ đổ bộ lên Ntetu khả năng tự vệ trái trọng tài với rất ít lựa chọn nhưng để ngăn chặn cuộc chiến với 45 giây còn lại trong vòng một số.

 

 

 

“Chúng tôi làm việc cho chiến thắng này. Ông bước vào một shot chắc chắn và tôi làm anh ta phải trả,”Browne nói. “Các trái overhand bắt anh ta và đó là sự khởi đầu của sự kết thúc cho anh ta. Tôi biết anh ta bị thương.

 

 

 

“Tôi cần một shot danh hiệu thế giới. Tôi sẵn sàng để đưa vào bất kỳ nhà vô địch. Tôi không có bất kỳ sở thích. Tôi rất vui vì tôi đặt cùng một màn trình diễn tuyệt vời ở đây tại Barclays Trung tâm. Tôi sẽ tiếp tục cải thiện cho đến khi tôi thực sự trở thành ông. Trung tâm Barclays “.

 

 

 

thẻ tín dụng, người di chuyển đến các bộ phận nặng ánh sáng cho cuộc chiến này, đã có một thời gian khó khăn đối phó với sự kết hợp của tốc độ và sức mạnh của Browne trên đường đi đến sự mất mát thứ hai trong sự nghiệp chuyên nghiệp của mình.

 

 

 

"[Browne] là rất nổ, chúc mừng anh,” Said Ntetu. “Anh ấy nhanh, anh ấy thông minh và tôi không hy vọng anh sẽ nổ mà. Ông đã cho tôi với móc phải của mình và một trái thẳng.

 

 

 

“Tôi đã ở đủ hình dạng để đấu tranh cho 10 vòng. Đây không phải là hạng cân của tôi, nhưng tôi không muốn làm cho bào chữa.”

 

 

 

Trong cơn khai mạc SHOWTIME vô địch đấm bốc Prelims, bất khả chiến bại Adam Kownacki (17-0, 14 Kos) delivered a brutal knockout of Iago Kiladze (26-2, 18 Kos) tại 2:08 of the sixth round of their heavyweight matchup. Kownacki, sinh ra ở Lomza, Ba Lan nhưng chiến đấu ra khỏi Brooklyn, New York, được sự ủng hộ của đám đông thành phố quê hương anh khi anh đều đặn mặc Kiladze xuống.

 

 

 

Kownacki là hung hăng hơn và chính xác của hai máy bay chiến đấu, đổ bộ 43 phần trăm các cú đấm quyền lực của mình và 35 phần trăm của tổng số cú đấm của mình, so với chỉ 30 phần trăm và 18 phần trăm, tương ứng, cho Kiladze. Mặc dù một mũi đẫm máu mà Kownacki bị ở vòng đầu tiên, các hạng nặng Ba Lan bắt đầu đổ nó vào và lốp Kiladze với một loạt các uppercuts và một phần hai kết hợp ở vòng thứ tư. Bout hành động-đóng gói đi tới hồi kết khi Kownacki kết nối trên sự kết hợp của hai uppercuts và một tay phải đã gửi Kiladze trên lưng trong phút cuối cùng của vòng thứ sáu. Sau một Kiladze choáng váng trở về đôi chân của mình, tài Shada Murdaugh gọi là cuộc chiến theo gợi ý của bác sĩ Ring.

 

 

 

“Tôi rất biết ơn tất cả các fan hâm mộ Ba Lan của tôi đã đi ra và đưa cho tôi mà hỗ trợ thêm”, nói Kownacki, đã chiến đấu ở phía trước hàng trăm đồng bào mình. “Tôi sẽ tiếp tục tranh đấu cho người hâm mộ và cung cấp cho mọi người một chương trình tuyệt vời.

 

 

 

“Tôi nghĩ rằng tôi đã thực hiện cuộc chiến khó khăn hơn rất nhiều so với tôi nên có. Đó là một kinh nghiệm học tập và tôi đã chiến thắng. Đó là tất cả những gì quan trọng.”

Errol SPENCE JR.
“Cuộc chiến này có nghĩa là tất cả mọi thứ với tôi. I still have a chip on my shoulder. I want to be the last man standing. I want to beat the top fighters in my division. Lamont is the one standing in front of me, so it’s fight time.
I think it’s going to turn into a war. A lot of people have thought this would be an easy fight for me. But if you follow Lamont Peterson, you know this will be tough. He’s always in great shape and has a lot of skills. IT might be a dog fight and that’s what I wanted. He’s the guy who wanted to fight and I said of course. It’s going to be a rugged fight. Later on in the fights, he always gets rough and stands toe-to-toe.
There might not be a lot of talking and bad blood between us, but you know that the two of us always give a great fight for the fans.
I had to wait for my title defense and then I had a lot of guys not answer the call for this fight. I have a belt and I still have to call these other guys out. Lamont Peterson answered the call like a real fighter.
In a perfect world I’d be unifying with Keith Thurman this year. I’m going to fight three times this year though. You don’t get time back. I’m ready to strike now.
I’m just excited to fight. Tôi muốn chiến đấu. I can’t wait to be in front of those bright lights in front of the fans. Brooklyn is a great place to fight and my family from the area can come see me live. I can’t wait to display my skills.
A true champion can’t fight everybody who calls them out, it’s still a business. But a true champion fights other champions, especially when they’re available. You can’t avoid questions and try to delay a fight. You fight the next champion that’s available, that’s what a true champion does.
Lamont PETERSON
When I got into boxing, I had goals. First I wanted to be a National Champion, then a world champion as a professional, but the ultimate goal is to be in the Hall of Fame. With that being my goal, I wouldn’t put myself in that conversation yet. With wins over a guy like Errol Spence and the other top welterweights, I think I’m right there in it. That’s my goal and I’ll give it my all to get there.
If you left it to me I’d fight every month. That’s how much I love the sport. I know a victory would help me get in the ring even more often. Sometimes if you lose at the top level, other top guys don’t want to take a chance against you. I can fix all of that this weekend
I don’t worry about any negativity. My resume is written in the history books. All I can do is respect the opinion of others and work hard to get this win.
I’m excited and looking forward to the skill level that’s going to be displayed this weekend. It’s going to be a rough fight for sure. But I look forward to the technique and skill level. Defense, offense and transitioning between the two. That’s the part of boxing that I love.
Errol even taking the Kell Brook fight was impressive to me. Most guys in his position take their time leading up to the first title shot, but he ended up fighting someone in his prime in his country. To will himself to that win was very impressive.
When you get to the big stages and those big fights, you have to win more than you lose. I think if I can win some big fights these next few years my career will be in a good place.
ROBERT EASTER
I have no concerns fighting a southpaw. I made my last fight hard, but this time I’m going to use my reach, my feet and my speed to dominate.
I’m looking for a great performance. This is going to be the best Robert Easter the fans have ever seen. We prepared to dominate this fight.
Javier Fortuna is an accomplished fighter but I don’t know too much about him. I know what I came to do. I’m a world champion and everyone knows what I bring to the fight game. I won’t leave without my strap.
I’m ready to fight the best in this sport. I want to become the man at this weight and I know I have to beat the other champions to do that.
Boxing is all about showing you’re the best and fighting the best. I just want to fight these other champions in my weight class. I’m looking to stay healthy in 2018 and remain on top.
Javier FORTUNA
I have no excuses on Tháng giêng 20. I hope he doesn’t either. I will be taking that title to the Dominican Republic for my fans. I’ve been dreaming about it and I will take it.
I have the style and the skills to beat Robert Easter. I know how to make sure his height does not affect me at all. Everyone will see it on fight night.
I’ve prepared myself very well. I have a plan to win every round. If he’s able to stand there, I’m going to break him down round by round.
I am fighting for more than just myself and that is why I’ll be successful. I am going to prove that I’m truly one of the top fighters in the sport.
Robert Easter is a fighter I respect, but I believe I can defeat anyone in front of me. If he takes me lightly, it will go even worse for him. I’ve been training hard to make sure I’m at my absolute best on fight night.
A win would be great for my country, my fans and my family. Winning this title is everything for me. That’s why I’m here and I will not be stopped.
Derrick JAMES, Trainer Spence của
I started training Errol about nine years ago but I never really knew just how special he was until about a year or so into our training. I thought Olympics were definitely possible, because I didn’t want to look too far ahead. Now that we’re here, I think he can beat any of the top guys. I want him to be undisputed welterweight champion just like he wants to be.
I never worry about comparing Errol to other guys in the sport. He’s a hard puncher who breaks ribs and breaks faces. The longer the fight goes, the more pain he inflicts. I’ve never seen anybody who punches that hard.
I think Lamont knew when he moved up to welterweight that this fight would be a possibility. It’s time for us to go to work because I know Lamont and Barry Hunter are working on a game plan. They have a great team and I know Lamont will be ready for what we bring.
BARRY HUNTER, Trainer Peterson
We stay in the gym all the time. We didn’t have to deal with the weight monster this camp. Weight issue can really derail a camp leading up to a fight of this magnitude. We didn’t have to deal with any of that.
There are several different things in Errol’s arsenal that I think we can exploit. Errol will make adjustments though, so I think strategy will be a key in this fight.
Lamont has always been a coach’s dream. He’s the type of athlete that you would love to coach. He does everything a coach asks of him. He will train until he passes out. All he wants is to work hard and compete.
LOU DIBELLA, Chủ tịch DIBELLA Entertainment
This is a great night for boxing. The first January date of the year drums up a lot of excitement and we expect a great turnout vào thứ bảy đêm tại Barclays Trung tâm. It’s going to be a great crowd and an exciting night from top to bottom.
“Errol Spence Jr. is one of the best young fighters in the world testing himself against another great fighter in Lamont Peterson It’s the best fighting the best. Lamont Peterson is a guy with a tremendous resume. If anybody thinks Errol is going to take Lamont lightly, they’re mistaken and he would be too.
Both of these main event fighters are lucky to have trainers who are real teachers. They are old school and two of the best. Derrick James and Barry Hunter know the game inside and out.
Robert Easter is a beast, he’s got reach, power and boxing ability. He’s facing a guy in Javier Fortuna who is a confident former world champion. Javier has been talking a big game. He’s talking about knockouts. You want to see a guy come into a fight like this with that kind of confidence.
This year in boxing is starting out just like last year started, at Barclays Center with a great, even matchup like Badou Jack vs. James DeGale last year.
STEPHEN Espinoza, Phó chủ tịch điều hành & Tổng Giám đốc, SHOWTIME Sports
In terms of representing the sport, you don’t get any better than Errol Spence Jr. and Lamont Peterson. The professionalism of these guys is unmatched and they represent the best of the sport. I’m proud to have them on the network.
You can’t play boxing. You have to be dedicated and passionate. Those values are going to be reflected in the ring vào thứ bảy.
This is a special fight. These are the best in the sport. They’re both top 10 kẻ. Errol Spence Jr. has grown up on SHOWTIME.
He made his pro debut on ShoBox and won his first world title on SHOWTIME. This is Lamont’s eighth appearance on SHOWTIME and he has one of the strongest resumes in the sport.
Robert Easter and Javier Fortuna is another matchup of top 10 kẻ. What we’re doing here is special. This isn’t just another network doing boxing, this is the cream of the crop.
BRETT YORMARK, CEO of Brooklyn Sports & Giải trí
I’m really excited about Thứ bảy đêm. We’ve been very fortunate to host the first big event of the year. There’s an appetite to get back into the game and we’re happy to be hosting it.
I want to welcome back Errol and Lamont to Barclays Center. Both have been there before and we’re thrilled to have you back. We’re pleased that Robert has finally decided to take his show to Barclays Center and give the fans a performance. Last time Javier won at Barclays Center he won his world title and we’re happy to have him back.
We’re going to create something great here in Brooklyn and it continues vào thứ bảy night at Barclays Center.
