Né à Camagüey, Cuba et entraîné par l'entraîneur de longue date Herman Caicedo à Miami, Ortiz a remporté trois combats entre les concours Wilder, vaincre Travis Kauffman, Christian Hammer et Razvan Cojanu. Avant cette course, Ortiz a remporté des victoires contre Bryant Jennings, Tony Thompson et Malik Scott pour construire son CV poids lourd.

“J'ai hâte d'offrir à mes fans du sud de la Floride un grand spectacle le jour du Nouvel An et de gagner une autre chance pour le titre des poids lourds,” Ledit Ortiz. “Charles Martin est un bon combattant, mais il se tient sur mon chemin. La seule chose à laquelle je pense est de monter sur le ring et de faire une grande déclaration dans ce combat pour montrer à nouveau pourquoi je suis craint par la division des poids lourds.”

Martin, 35 ans (28-2-1, 25 KOs) est devenu champion des poids lourds en janvier 2016 quand il a gagné par TKO contre Vyacheslav Glazkov alors invaincu. Après avoir perdu son titre contre Anthony Joshua, Martin a remporté cinq de ses six derniers combats, avec toutes ses victoires à l'intérieur de la distance.

“Personne ne veut me battre et personne ne veut combattre Ortiz, alors nous nous battrons,” a déclaré Martin. “Je vais montrer au monde en janvier 1 pourquoi je mérite un coup de titre. J'ai payé ma cotisation et je veux récupérer ma ceinture. Battre Ortiz va me rapprocher un peu plus de cet objectif. Pour devenir double champion poids lourd, Je dois d'abord dépasser Ortiz, c'est donc exactement ce que je vais faire.

Un amateur hors du commun de son Cuba natal, Sanchez (19-0, 13 KOs) s'entraîne maintenant à San Diego avec le meilleur entraîneur Eddy Reynoso. Le joueur de 29 ans est resté occupé dans son ascension dans le classement des poids lourds, marquant trois victoires en 2020 alors qu'il a obtenu une décision unanime sur Joey Dawejko et a arrêté Brian Howard et Julian Fernandez. Sanchez a récemment remporté sa meilleure victoire en carrière en octobre, laissant tomber Efe Ajagba auparavant invaincu en route vers une victoire par décision unanime.

“Je suis heureux d'être de retour si peu de temps après avoir battu Agjaba, mais le travail ne fait que commencer,” Saïd Sanchez. “Il y a beaucoup plus à faire. Je crois que je serai le premier champion poids lourd de l'histoire de Cuba. Negron est un fort, adversaire dangereux. Je vais devoir être mon meilleur, mais je suis persuadé que je sortirai victorieux. Je crois en mon équipe, et mon équipe croit en moi. Nous allons commencer la nouvelle année en nous rendant à 20-0, rester occupé et plaider en faveur d'un titre mondial d'ici la fin de l'année.”

Le 2008 Negron olympien portoricain (25-3, 20 KOs) mène une séquence de cinq victoires consécutives en janvier 1, dont quatre victoires par arrêt.

Mon expérience et ma préparation vont faire la différence. Je suis extrêmement motivé pour donner aux fans un grand combat et me mettre en position d'obtenir une opportunité de titre mondial.”

Né en Caroline du Sud et se battant maintenant à Los Angeles, Riz (14-6-1, 10 KOs) cherchera à répéter une meilleure performance en carrière dans le match revanche contre Coffie, après avoir arrêté le combattant auparavant invaincu au cinquième tour en juillet. Rice a remporté six des sept combats de 2018 par 2019 avant une paire de pertes en 2020 contre Efe Ajagba et Demsey McKean, alors invaincus. Dans une carrière pro qui remonte à 2014, les imperfections des records de Rice se sont toutes produites contre des combattants auparavant invaincus.

“Dans mon dernier combat contre Coffie, Je suis allé là-bas pour faire mes preuves et faire ce pour quoi je m'étais entraîné," dit Riz. "C'était couler ou nager, et je suis sorti en tête. Maintenant je dois y aller en janvier 1 et montrer que ce n'était pas un coup de chance. C'est une grande étape pour moi d'afficher mes talents et de prouver que je suis capable de grandes choses. Je cherche à donner aux fans une excellente performance et je sais que Coffie fait de même. Ne manquez pas ce combat.”

Un vétéran du Corps des Marines qui a appris la boxe après son retour d'outre-mer, Coffie a rapidement impressionné suffisamment dans les tournois amateurs pour gagner des missions de combat avec Deontay Wilder et Adam Kownacki. Il est né dans le Bronx, mais maintenant s'entraine à Orlando, Floride et a percé en 2020 avec trois victoires d'arrêt dominantes, y compris les KO contre des adversaires auparavant invaincus, Darmani Rock et Luis Pena.

“Je veux le récupérer et en faire un vrai combat cette fois contre Jonny Rice," a déclaré Coffie. «La dernière fois, J'étais dans une position où je faisais face à une certaine adversité, et j'ai dû prendre une décision pour aller jusqu'au bout du combat. Je sais que je peux me battre dans l'adversité, et en janvier 1, Je serai prêt pour n'importe quelle façon le combat se passe. En janvier 1, il y aura un combat.”

BROOKLYN (Août 4, 2019) – Unbeaten Polish star and Brooklyn native Adam Kownacki (20-0, 15 KOs) earned a unanimous decision over Chris “The Nightmare” Arreola (38-6-1, 33 KOs) in an all-action brawl in front of his hometown fans that headlined FOX PBC Fight Night main event and on FOX Deportes Saturday night from Barclays Center, la maison de BROOKLYN BOXE ™.

Kownacki and Arreola set the CompuBox heavyweight record for combined punches landed and thrown in a heavyweight fight. They landed a combined 667 poinçons, besting the previous record of 650, while throwing 2,172 poinçons, far surpassing the previous mark of 1,730.

Highlights from the fight can be found ICI, ICI et ICI.

“Chris is an Aztec warrior,” ledit Kownacki. “Il est un grand combattant. I knew it would be a tough fight and I prepared for it. The CompuBox numbers prove it was a great fight.”

“Adam is relentless,” Saïd Arreola. “He just keeps coming. I know I got him with some good punches and he got me with some good ones. I was more than ready to go all 12, but Adam came in and won the fight.”

The action began right from the first bell, as Kownacki charged at Arreola and immediately began exchanging as both men threw power punches in bunches. Kownacki worked off of his jab to initiate his offense, while Arreola was effectively able to counter his hard-charging opponent and respond every time he was hit with a combination.

“I thought it was a good close fight but I knew I pulled it out,” ledit Kownacki. “I landed a lot of shots and that was enough to win. That’s all that matters.”

Kownacki stunned Arreola in the early moments of round two but Arreola quickly responded to slow Kownacki’s momentum. Arreola found more and more success with his overhand right as the fight went, landing the punch numerous times in the fourth and fifth round especially.

Round six was a back and forth affair that featured a big offensive surge from Kownacki early in the round, before an exciting exchange at the end of the round saw both men take heavy punches.

“I tried to follow up when I had him hurt but I was throwing two punches instead of three or four,” ledit Kownacki. “Props to Arreola because he proved he could still hang. I’m sure the fans would want to see him again.”

The middle rounds saw Arreola pick up a hand injury, but it didn’t appear to slow him down much as his punch output continued to be strong for the second half of the fight. For Kownacki, it was his first time going past 10 rounds as a pro.

After the punches continued to fly through the last bell, the two heavyweights embraced in the ring prior to hearing the judges’ scores. Après 12 tours, all three judges saw the fight in favor of Kownacki, par des dizaines de 117-11 deux fois et 118-110.

“Retirement is something I need to talk to my family and team about,” Saïd Arreola. “I gave it my all this fight. I let it all hang out. After breaking my hand, I kept fighting because I believed I could win.”

“I just have to keep training hard, getting better and sharpening my skills,” ledit Kownacki. “We’ll see what the future holds. Hopefully next year I’ll get the title shot.”

The co-main event saw former world champion Jean Pascal (34-6-1, 20 KOs) earn a narrow technical decision over previously unbeaten Marcus Browne (23-1, 16 KOs) to capture the WBA interim light heavyweight title after an accidental headbutt ended the fight in round eight.

“Boxing is boxing,” ledit Pascal. “We clashed heads, mais à la fin de la journée, I was winning the round. I dropped him three times. Ce était une lutte serrée, but I believe I was winning.”

Browne appeared to be in control early, using his jab effectively and finishing his combos with power punches. Tout au long du combat, Browne would land 52% of his power punches according to CompuBox.

Dans la quatrième manche, Pascal broke through landing a perfect right hand that connected with Browne as he threw his own right hook. Browne hit the canvas for the third time in his career, but was able to make it through the round.

Watch Pascal score the knockdown ICI

Browne looked to have regained control of the fight until late in round seven when Pascal again connected on a powerful right hook that caught Browne during an exchange. Pascal jumped on Browne after he got to his feet and knocked him down a third time right before the bell ended round seven.

Montreal’s Pascal was looking to finish Browne in round eight, while Browne looked to effectively navigate the ring while recovering from the previous round. It was midway through the round that Pascal hit Browne with an accidental headbutt on the ropes that opened a cut over Browne’s left eye.

Referee Gary Rosato halted the bout 1:49 dans la ronde, on the advice of the ringside physician, meaning the fight went to the scorecards. By winning the shortened eighth round on all three judges’ cartes, Pascal won the fight by the score of 75-74 trois fois.

“I could hear my daughter ringside and that was motivation for me,” ledit Pascal. “She was yelling my name all night long. I’m going to go home and talk to my team to see what is next. Canada has Drake, the NBA Champions and now I’m bringing the belt home.”

Browne was unavailable for post fight comments as he was taken to NYU Lutheran Medical Center due to the cut.

The opening bout on FOX saw Wale Omotoso (28-4, 22 KOs) drop Curtis Stevens(30-7, 22 KOs) three times on his way to a third round stoppage victory in their super welterweight clash.

For Stevens it was his first fight at 154-pounds, and he was tested at the new weight from the outset. Omotoso began moving and jabbing around the ring as Stevens stalked him and tried to throw power punches to slow his movement. Late in the first round, Omotoso broke through with a right hand to the side of Stevens’ head that dropped him in the middle of the ring.

“My coach told me to keep my hands up, be patient, box him and jab,” said Omotoso. “He told me I shouldn’t push it and that when the opening was there, Je le prendrais. That’s exactly what happened.”

“He hit me with an overhand right in the first round that knocked my equilibrium,” said Stevens. “But that didn’t really affect me too much. I wasn’t stepping enough into my punches, I was reaching. I got caught when I was reaching.”

In round two Omotoso landed a perfect jab on Stevens, as his opponent was throwing a left hook, that sent him down for the second time in the fight. Stevens again made it through the round, and began the next frame trapping Omotoso in the corner and connecting on power punches.

“I was just letting my hands go,” said Omotoso. “On the second knockdown my confidence grew. I was glad to get the victory by knockout.”

While Stevens was able to own the early moments of the third round, Omotoso hit him with a three punch combo that featured left hook, left uppercut and then straight right hand that put Stevens down for the third time. Stevens got to his feet but referee Johnny Callas halted the bout at 1:28 de la troisième ronde.

“I was okay but the referee has to do his job,” said Stevens. “I was down three times so I know he was looking out for my best interests.”

“I didn’t expect it to go exactly like that,” said Omotoso. “I was just listening to my coach. The second knockdown was actually with my jab. I have to talk to my team about what’s next. I’m thankful for this opportunity. I’m so happy to have this win. Give me anybody next, Je suis prêt.”

The fighters were joined on stage by former lineal heavyweight champion Michael Spinks. Here is what the fighters had to say Thursday from the Brooklyn Marriott:

ADAM Kownacka

“This is one of my dreams coming true. Since the amateurs I’ve wanted to fight at Barclays Center and on Saturday night I’m the main event. I couldn’t be more excited

“I’ve been pushed hard in training camp and I can’t wait to show everyone all of my work on Saturday. The key is going to be jabbing in and throwing my punches in bunches like I always do.

“This is a new experience for me being the headliner, but in the ring it doesn’t matter. It’s just two guys fighting each other. We both love to fight. I can’t wait to get it over with and punch him in the face.

“Chris Arreola is a warrior. You always know that when Chris fights, it’s a good fight. But I’m going to test how much he has left in the gas tank. Chris has been in there with three champions and when I take care of business on Saturday, I’ll be one step closer to being world champion.

“It’s truly a great feeling to have all this support from my fans here. These fans are trusting me to bring the title back to Brooklyn and to Poland.

“Barclays Center has been my boxing home. J'ai hâte de monter sur le ring. This is a tough fight and I have to make sure I send the fans home happy.

“This definitely has Fight of the Year written all over it. Neither of us are afraid to let our hands go and no matter what happens, the fans are going to be winners on Saturday.”

Chris Arreola

“I understand that Adam is the favorite because he’s undefeated and fighting in his hometown. A la fin de la journée,, none of that matters to me. I’m going to give it my all for this fight.

“I’m carefree right now. I have no stress. Si je perds, I’m okay with walking way. But I’m not here to do that. I’m here to win.

“Je sais que je dois un adversaire coriace en face de moi. I have my work cut out for me. But ‘The Nightmare’ is going to keep going.

“I went to Joe Goossen as my trainer because I knew it was time to make a change. I have to make this last run count. This is the best team I could imagine. Joe makes you work on your mistakes. I believe the winner of this fight is whoever takes advantage of the first mistake.

“I respect everybody outside of the ring, but once we’re in the ring, I’m not friends with anyone. We’ll shake hands after the final bell, but I’m here to put on a show. It’s lights, caméra, action and time to shine.

“He’s a volume puncher. He just keeps coming and he’s smiling at you the whole time. A la fin de la journée,, I’m going to put a frown on his face Saturday.

“My prediction is that the fans are going to get their money’s worth. You better record this one, because you’re going to watch it again and again. I’m going to come out with my hand raised.”

MARCUS BROWNE

“Being in training in Colorado really lets me get attuned to my game plan. It’s just waking up every day and working with that same mentality where I’m focused on nothing but the fight. It’s all about going in there and getting that win.

“I’m going to punish Pascal on Saturday. If the knockout is how he wants to go, Je serai prêt. I promise I’m going to beat him for 12 tours.

“It feels great to be here defending my belt. I’ll be in a better position after this fight. I’m going to make a statement in this fight and put Pascal in his place.

“Pascal is a guy who doesn’t come to lay down, he comes to beat you. That’s what the sport is about. You have to fight guys of that stature if you’re not fighting champions.

“A win on Saturday puts me in contention to fight for a world title next. That’s my focus, but before that, it’s about Jean Pascal and taking care of him the right way.

“This is a great card for New York with me, Adam and Curtis all representing our home city. It’s great for us to be in this position together.”

JEAN PASCAL

“Marcus has been saying that he’s going to go in there and try to knock me out, but I’m no amateur. I know what his game plan is going to be. He’s going to run around the ring and try to hold. We all know he’s the best at running like a chicken.

“When I was Marcus’ âge, I was already a world champion. He was watching me on TV when he was at the Olympics.

“How is he going to knock me out? I think without the cut that Badou Jack had in their fight, he would have knocked Marcus out.

“Je suis prêt. I’m a solid fighter. I’ve fought the best, so I don’t think Marcus will be able to knock me out.

“I’m too good all-around for Marcus. This is my chance to show that I still have a lot of gas left in the tank. I’m still good enough to fight at the very top level of the sport.”

CURTIS STEVENS

“This is my first time fighting at Barclays Center, and I’m going to give the fans a taste of what they’ve been missing.

“I decided that I’d go down to 154-pounds because my camp has a lot of the top 160-pound fighters so we were getting in each other’s way. There are a lot of opportunities for me in this weight class as well.

“No matter what has happened in my career, I have always come back. I’m mentally always ready to bounce back. I’ve had layoffs in my career, but I know that I’m going to get where I need to be.

“Nobody calls me out because they know I can punch. I’m too risky for the top fighters because they know there’s a chance they get knocked out.

“It’s incredible to have this opportunity to fight at Barclays Center for the first time. It’s going to be a good time for me and all the fans.”

Accueil Omotoso

“I’m not worried about Stevens being at a new weight. I don’t think it’s going to affect him that much. Samedi, we’re both going to do our best to get the win.

“He’s a big puncher who brawls. But I’m a big puncher too. He’s been there and fought everybody, but I’m going to show the world what I can do.

“I think this is going to be a toe-to-toe fight. There might be some feeling out, but as the fight goes on and we get into the middle rounds, it’s going to be fought in the middle of the ring.

“I’ve trained well for this fight and had sparring with lots of different fighters. The different styles that I’ve seen throughout camp will have me prepared for anything Stevens shows me on Saturday night.”

Puerto Rican Olympian Negron Ready to Take on Top Heavyweight Contender Dominic Breazeale Saturday, Décembre 22 in Premier Boxing Champions on FOX & FOX Deportes Action Live from Barclays Center in Brooklyn

CARLOS NEGRON TRAINING CAMP NOTES

MIAMI, FL. (Novembre 9, 2018) – Portoricaine olympienne Carlos Negron is deep into training camp in Miami for his 10-round heavyweight showdown against top contender Dominic “Difficulté” Breazeale aura lieu le samedi, Décembre 22 live on FOX and FOX Deportes and presented by Premier Boxing Champions from Barclays Center, la maison de BROOKLYN BOXE ™.

 

 

 

Born in San Juan, Negron represented his home country at the 2008 Olympic games and is eager to return to fight in front of New York’s large contingent of Puerto Rican boxing fans on December 22.

 

 

 

“This is a great opportunity not only against a top opponent, but to be on the big stage in front of the great Puerto Rican fans and put on a great performance for them,” dit Négron, who last fought in New York in 2010. “I’m very confident in my abilities and I understand the job I have in front of me. Everyone will see how hard I’ve worked when we get in the ring.”

 

 

 

Under the guidance of trainer Herman Caicedo, Negron will return to the ring for the first time since June 2017, when he scored a knockout victory over veteran contender Derric Rossy in a dominating performance that saw him score multiple knockdowns. Negron has worked with Caicedo for nearly a year, previously helping prepare Luis Ortiz for his heavyweight title bout against Deontay Wilder.

 

 

 

“Having Carlos in camp for an extended period of time before the Breazeale fight was even announced has really allowed us to be leaps ahead at this point in training camp,” said Caicedo. “Mentally and physically he is really sharp right now and it’s going to show on fight night.”

 

 

 

“Working with Luis Ortiz and the other fighters in our gym has really helped push me to another level,” dit Négron. “We’re grinding every day and they truly demand the best out of me. There’s no being mediocre here. You have to put in your best effort every day.”

 

 

 

With the six-foot-six Negron meeting the six-foot-seven Breazeale, this matchup is sure to display the power of two giants of the division. A former title challenger and U.S. Olympien, Breazeale has shown the ability to come back in a fight and turn the tides with one punch. For Negron, he knows the task in front of him is tall in stature and order.

 

 

 

“Breazeale is a very tough fighter and what he might lack in skill, he more than makes up for in heart,” dit Négron. “He certainly has shown skill to get to this point in his career, but he also has that special something that’s gotten him through some tough fights.

 

 

 

“It’s going to come down to intelligence and controlling the ring. I’m a very smart fighter with a lot of experience. I’ve had a loss and I don’t want to experience that again. I believe whoever gets thrown off their game plan is going to suffer and I’m going to make sure I’m prepared for everything he throws at me.”

 

 

 

The PBC on FOX & FOX Deportes broadcast begins at 8 p.m. ET / 5 h, heure. PT and is co-headlined by twin champions the Charlos as Jermall Charlo defends his interim WBC middleweight title against Willie Jr Monroe., while WBC Super Welterweight World Champion Jermell Charlo batailles Tony Harrison.

Here is what the luncheon participants had to say Friday at lunch from Watty’s at The Flats in Beverly Hills, which featured a special guest in former two-division world champion Danny Garcia:

 

DOMINIC Breazeale, WBC Non. 1 Heavyweight Challenger

 

 

 

“I’ve been staying in the gym consistently. My trainer Manny Robles does a great job of keeping me sharp. He makes sure I’m watching other guys spar and learning new tools.

 

 

 

“I have worked hard to get to the top and I’ve done it by bringing the fight each and every time. I’ve waited for this opportunity and my time is now.

 

 

 

“Carlos Negron is a great fighter who I’ll be ready for. People want to see exchanges and that is what I’m aiming for. I’m going to give the fans a great show and bring home a victory.

 

 

 

“I know that I’m a contender in the heavyweight division. I came up short against Anthony Joshua, but now I have a beautiful opportunity to go after the WBC title. I’m not letting anyone stand in my way.

 

 

 

“My goal was to not be in camp trying to get in shape. I see too much of that. So I made sure once it was time to focus in on this fight, that I was already at fighting weight. I feel great right now and I see the difference.

 

 

 

“I’m looking forward to this big fight on FOX and FOX Deportes. It’s been a long time coming to get back in the ring and this is a great stage for me to do it on.

 

 

 

“My main focus is on this fight and securing the title shot. I’m preparing for Carlos Negron like he’s Deontay Wilder. I would be a little upset if Tyson Fury wins because I really want to face Wilder.

 

 

 

“My plan is to win on December 22 and next time I fight, that green belt will be on the line. I’m ready for this shot at the belt that I’ve worked for.”

 

MANNY ROBLES, Breazeale’s Trainer

 

 

 

“Dominic is really prepared for this fight. He will be ready because he is an extremely hard-working fighter. His strength and conditioning work has been really focused and we think it’s going to show in this fight.

 

 

 

“We are taking this fight very seriously, as we do every fight. This is one of his better camps we’ve had together. So far things are going great. I am not just saying that. I truly believe you will see a better Dominic than ever before.

 

 

 

“We are working on a lot of different things – vitesse, jeu de jambe, stamina. We understand that we have a good boxer-puncher in front of us. He is up for the task. Dominic will be great. Expect fireworks on December 22.”

 

BRITTANY GOOSSEN BROWN, Vice President of TGB Promotions

 

 

 

“This is going to be a great heavyweight matchup on December 22 à Brooklyn. Dominic Breazeale is always in action fights and he knows he needs to win in style to get another shot at the heavyweight world championship.

 

 

 

“Breazeale is the mandatory challenger for the Deontay Wilder vs. Tyson Fury winner, but he can’t look past the experienced Puerto Rican Olympian Carlos Negron. This fight is going to be a great way to kick off the FOX and FOX Deportes telecast.”

Charlo JERMALL

 

 

“J'ai eu une bonne chance de voir Monroe de près quand j'ai commenté son dernier combat. Il avait l'air bien et je savais que c'était une possibilité. Je suis ravi que ce soit ici et que j'ai quelqu'un contre qui jouer.

 

 

 

“Monroe s'est testé contre certains des meilleurs combattants du monde et cela me motive encore plus. Il a affronté les combattants avec lesquels je veux entrer, donc je vois cela comme une opportunité de me mesurer à leurs performances.

 

 

 

“Il s'agit de notre premier spectacle avec Lions Only Promotions pour moi et mon frère et nous sommes vraiment ravis d'en avoir l'occasion. Nous avons travaillé dur pour faire avancer ce projet et nous sommes prêts à montrer à chacun tout ce que nous pouvons faire.

 

 

 

“On a toujours rêvé de se battre sur la même carte comme ça les uns avec les autres. Nous aimons gagner ensemble. C’est comme ça toute notre vie et c’est une autre chance pour nous de nous montrer ensemble en décembre 22.

 

 

 

“J'ai travaillé si dur pour arriver à ce stade où je peux être dans cette position. Je promets en décembre 22 Je vais apporter quelque chose d'explosif dont Willie Monroe se souviendra pour le reste de sa vie. Les Charlos ont leur propre spectacle. Maman, on l'a fait!”

 

WILLIE MONROE JR.

 

 

 

“Je suis content que Jermall ait pris ce combat. Il commentait mon dernier combat et je savais alors que c'était un combat que je voulais vraiment beaucoup. Je vais en profiter au maximum et ne laisser aucun doute sur le fait que j'ai mérité cette chance en premier lieu.

 

 

 

“Mon équipe est vraiment restée fidèle à moi et maintenant je suis à un moment tellement excitant de ma carrière. Je sais que j'ai les outils pour faire le travail en décembre 22. C'est la deuxième fois que je me bat au Barclays Center et je sais qu'aucune des lumières vives ne m'affectera.

 

 

 

“Je suis à un bon moment dans ma carrière. I have the opportunities in front of me and a path to making the most of it. It’s just time for me to show up. I know what I have to do against one of the top fighters in the world. We’re going to make it happen.”

 

Jermell Charlo

 

 

 

“Tony Harrison is a great fighter and I’m happy to be up against him. There are a lot of great fighters in this division and he’s another quality one. He’s dropped 21 combattants, so we know he has power. I feel like I’ve faced the much tougher competition and I’m going to show it on December 22.

 

 

 

“I love Brooklyn and I’m excited to be on the first PBC on FOX show of this new deal. You can forget the critics because this is going to be a great fight. Me and Tony Harrison are coming to fight. It’s going to be two strong explosive guys leaving it all out there.

 

 

 

“It’s great to have our own Charlos card. We’ve already been in training camp working hard for this one. Now we’re going to lock in even more and I know we’ll be at our best on fight night.

 

 

 

“We’re driven by our legacy. Right now we’re going to keep increasing out levels in this sport. We know that the biggest fights are in our reach. We’ve always been competing against each other and trying to lift each other up.

 

 

 

“This is something big for the Charlo twins and Lions Only Promotions. We’re going to do what we always do, and that’s bring it on fight night with some heat and flavor. We understand that part of boxing. It’s going to be an exciting night for Brooklyn.”

 

TONY HARRISON

 

 

 

“I’m excited to be back here at this spot fighting at Barclays Center again. I’ve been so resilient in this sport. I haven’t talked my way into this fight. I have been ready for any fight offered to me and it was no different with this fight.

 

 

 

“Sometimes there are things you have to do for yourself and this fight is one of them. In my heart I know I’m supposed to be here and I know what I’m capable of. Charlo is a true champion for taking this fight and he obviously has a great team around him. He applies pressure to himself to keep competing on this level each time and I respect that.

 

 

 

“We’re both very competitive and that defines us as fighters, so I believe that’s going to add up to make this a truly explosive fight. I was honestly surprised that he took the fight, and I commend him as an athlete. He knows the danger in this fight that he’s taking.

 

 

 

“I’ve been at this level before. I’ve taken my bumps and bruises. I’ve always came through as a true champion and all of it has led me to where I am right now. En décembre 22, I guarantee I’m going to show up and leave it all in the ring.”

 

Ronnie Shields, Jermall’s Trainer

 

 

 

“Il est un plaisir d'être ici, especially with a great fighter like Jermall. I’m looking forward to fight night. Jermall trains so hard every day. He knows this is going to be a tough fight and he’s looking forward to the challenge.

 

 

 

“I hope everyone comes out and enjoys the show, because Jermall is grinding each day to be at his very best. He’s a special fighter and he never cheats us in the gym. This is going to be a night you don’t want to miss.”

 

DERRICK JAMES, Jermell’s Trainer

 

 

 

“Cela va être un grand combat. We know who Tony Harrison is and what he’s about. He’s very tough and he comes to win. I thought he was up on the cards when he faced Jarrett Hurd and now he’s going to challenge Jermell, so we could start to have a chance to see how everyone stacks up at the top of this division.

 

 

 

“We’re going to come in shape and be ready. This is going to help build us up to what’s next for us and what our long term goals are. Make sure you come out and see what we’re going to bring into the ring on fight night.”

 

TOM BROWN, Président de TGB Promotions

 

 

 

“I’m thankful to everyone for being here for this announcement of a sensational show that will take place here at Barclays Center. It’s an honor to be here to kick off this FOX series on December 22.

 

 

 

“This is going to be another high quality card at Barclays Center. They were recently named PBC’s official East Coast venue and we’re thrilled to start that agreement with this fight.

 

 

 

“Both of the Charlos have fought at Barclays Center before, and Harrison and Monroe have also fought here, with all of them combining for a perfect record. There’s something about this building that brings out the best in fighters and we can’t wait to see what’s in-store from these great fighters on December 22.”

The Charlos are two of the hottest young rising stars in boxing today and they made history in 2016 when they became the first twin boxers to ever hold titles simultaneously in the same weight class.

 

 

 

Jermall Charlo will defend his WBC interim middleweight title against top-rated contender Willie Monroe, Jr., while Jermell Charlo makes the fourth defense of his WBC super welterweight championship against hard-hitting former title challenger Tony Harrison. Jermall’s fight will serve as the main event of the show after he won the coin toss at today’s press conference to determine which Charlo twin will close the show.

 

 

 

The exciting night of action will also see WBC mandatory challenger and 2012 U.S..

Les billets peuvent également être achetés à la billetterie American Express du Barclays Center à partir du samedi, Octobre 27 à midi HE. Les rabais de groupe sont disponibles en téléphonant 844-BKLYN-GP.

 

 

 

“The Charlo twins at the top of a boxing card always brings excitement and entertainment,” a déclaré Tom Brown, Président de TGB Promotions. “In recent memory there haven’t been any twin world champion boxers to have the ring presence of the Charlos. Jermall will be tested by the slick southpaw skills of Willie Monroe, Jr. and Jermell will face a tough challenge from Tony Harrison, who also has his eye on winning a world championship. Heavyweight Dominic Breazeale is a throw-back battler who is never out of any fight, but he’ll have his hands full against Carlos Negron, who has an Olympic pedigree. It’s going to be a special night for those at Barclays Center and those tuning into the primetime broadcast on FOX and FOX Deportes.”

 

 

 

“FOX Sports is excited to be kicking off this new deal with the PBC on Saturday, Décembre 22 with these exceptional fights,” said Mark Silverman, Président, National Networks, FOX Sports. “Over the next four years, we’re looking forward to highlighting the PBC’s stellar lineup of boxers and telling their amazing stories.”

 

 

 

“It’s fitting for Barclays Center to close out its strong year of BROOKLYN BOXING programming with a major fight night televised in primetime on FOX,” dit Brett Yormark, PDG de l'ESB mondial. “As a twin myself, I understand how special it is to achieve career milestones alongside your brother, and I am looking forward to seeing Jermell and Jermall bring their unique brand of excitement to boxing fans in Brooklyn. With the inclusion of a top heavyweight bout in Breazeale vs. Negron, the card will deliver on the BROOKLYN BOXING guarantee of competitive matchups, mettant en vedette 50/50 fights and the sport’s best personalities.”

 

 

 

This will be the third fight for each Charlo twin at Barclays Center, as they enter December 22 a combined 4-0 with four knockouts at the venue.

 

 

 

The 28-year-old Jermall Charlo (27-0, 21 KOs) is one-minute older than his identical twin brother and won his first world title a year earlier than Jermell when he scored a devastating third round knockout of Cornelius Bundrage to win the IBF 154-pound title in 2015. Born in Richmond, Texas and growing up in Houston with Jermell, Jermall still trains in Houston with renowned coach Ronnie Shields. He successfully defended his 154-pound title three times, including a devastating knockout of top contender Julian Williams, before moving up in weight to campaign at middleweight.

 

 

 

Jermall proved to be just as dominant at 160 pounds as he was at 154 pounds when he made his middleweight debut by stopping Jorge Sebastian Heiland in the fourth round of their July 2017 bout. Jermall became the interim WBC middleweight champion with a second round knockout victory over Hugo Centeno, Jr. in his last fight on March 3.

 

 

 

“I’m very excited and the fire is lit to be back in Brooklyn,” said Jermall Charlo. “It’s great to be headlining a big show with my twin brother in Brooklyn. It’s going to be an exciting night of boxing. Willie Monroe is one of those fighters that will get me to the level I need to for all those great fights. And believe me, we’ll get them. This is a fight that he’s been asking for and it makes it special to know he’s keying in on me. Everybody knows what I come for. Je vais l'assommer. I’m going to be as explosive as I can and close the show. The journey begins now in Brooklyn.”

 

 

 

The 31-year-old Willie Monroe, Jr. (23-3. 6 KOs) has shown the skills to compete at the elite level, but the slick southpaw will face a tough challenge when he goes up against the hard-hitting Charlo. Fighting out of Rochester, N. Y., Monroe will be fighting for the second time in his career at Barclays Center after he scored a unanimous decision over Carlos Galvan on March 3. He followed that up by beating Javier Francisco Maciel by unanimous decision on Aug. 24 and has faced top middleweights Gennady Golovkin and Billy Joe Saunders throughout his career.

 

 

 

“I’ve been in this position before and it won’t faze me on December 22,” dit Monroe. “This is my third shot at a title, I’m the third Willie Monroe from my family in the line, and having already fought twice for the title, I know that the third time is going to be the charm. There’s a job to be done and nothing about it will be easy. Jermall Charlo is right up there with my past opponents Gennady Golovkin and Billy Joe Saunders, so it’s another tough outing. But it’s definitely a challenge that I’m up for and a challenge that I think I can conquer.”

 

 

 

Jermell Charlo (31-0, 15 KOs) joined his brother as a 154-pound world champion when he scored an eighth-round knockout over John Jackson in 2016 on the same night his brother defended his own 154-pound title. The 28-year-old had previously had previously picked up wins over Vanes Martirosyan, Joachim Alcine and Gabriel Rosado before securing the world title opportunity. The world title fight against Jackson was also Jermell’s first fight training in Dallas with Derrick James, where he will be training for this fight.

 

 

 

Since earning the title, Jermell has successfully defended three times, He delivered sensational highlights-reel knockouts of Charles Hatley and Erickson Lubin in 2017 before putting Austin Trout on the canvas three times in June on his way to a decision victory.
