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

 

DANNY GARCIA

 

 

 

I know I’m the better all-around fighter. I can just do more in the ring than Shawn Porter, aldian. I’m going to prove it on Saturday.

 

 

 

It means the world to me to get this belt back. This is a new chapter in my career. I’ve been in a lot of great fights. I’m a seasoned champion. This is a chance to regain something that was mine. This is one of the moments where I have to just go out there and prove myself.

 

 

 

My style is totally different than Keith Thurman, so I hope Shawn isn’t going off of that fight. I know I’m a better boxer than Shawn Porter and I’m going to make sure everyone else knows it too.

 

 

 

I absolutely want to unify with Errol Spence Jr. after I win. Borroka handienak nahi ditut. This would be my fourth world title. All I’ve ever done is face everyone they put in front me and I’ve earned those huge fights.

 

 

 

This is nothing new to me. I’ve performed at this level for a long time. I’ve put in the hard work. Come Saturday night I’m going to get this victory because I’m the better fighter and a true champion.

 

 

 

I’m incredibly motivated, but I know that sometimes in life if you want something too much, you don’t get it. I’ve achieved a lot in this sport. This will just add more hardware to my collection.

 

 

 

I didn’t take any punishment in the Thurman fight. I could have come back two months later. I know that I could have started earlier and been more relentless, but I’m just going to take that into this fight and make the best of it.

 

SHAWN PORTER

 

 

 

The way I’m going to win this fight will change the conversation at welterweight. You’re going to have to wonder whether Errol Spence Jr. and Terrence Crawford have what it takes to beat me. I’m here to put on a great show, win this title and do it in spectacular fashion

 

 

 

I’m used to being the underdog. I’ve upset people before. I’m looking forward to doing what it takes to be that one to pull it off.

 

 

 

“Estiloek borrokak egiten dituzte. One way or another, I’m ready to do whatever it takes to win this fight. There’s nothing I’ve ever wanted in my entire life more than this. I’m out here to take it.

 

 

 

Anything Danny is coming with, I’m taking it. It’s mine. Whatever da hartzen, I will not be stopped on Saturday night.

 

 

 

This means the world to me. This is my goal. I’m a goal-oriented person. I didn’t know when I was going to be fighting for this WBC title, I knew this was my time. This title has so much lineage and history to go along with it and I want to be a part of it.

 

 

 

I’m setting the tone now for what Danny should expect from fight night. He’s had this before, but this is my goal and this world title is mine to take.

 

 

 

Danny has to know that he’s getting in the ring with a bull. This isn’t going to be an easy 12 erronda. I’m going to make him earn every inch.

 

YORDENIS UGAS

 

 

 

It’s an honor to be a part of such a big card at Barclays Center. I’m going to do what I need to do. I’m going to put on a great performance, and the rest will take care of itself.

 

 

 

I think I’ve been the most consistent fighter at welterweight for the last two years. If I take care of business on Saturday, a world title shot will be next.

 

 

 

My opponent is going to try to make a big name for himself, but it’s my job to study him and make adjustments in the ring to get him out of there.

 

CESAR BARRIONUEVO

 

 

 

I’m very happy to be in this position. It’s going to be a great fight and it’s going to be my announcement to the U.S. I’m very ready to perform on that stage.

 

 

 

I know that my power and my relentlessness will make this an exciting fight for the fans. I hope that Ugas is not underestimating me, because I want him to be at his very best.

 

 

 

Fighting in Brooklyn is exciting. I could not be on a more exciting or perfect stage for this fight. Saturday will become the night that everyone remembers for my arrival.

 

ADAM Kownacka

 

 

 

After Saturday night, everybody will know my name. I’m the next great heavyweight here in America. I want to make my splash on the national scene.

 

 

 

Last year against Artur Szpilka was an appetizer and this is my main course for really making myself known as a threat to everyone at heavyweight.

 

 

 

I can’t wait to hear the Polish fans and see the red and white. It’s going to be another awesome atmosphere and I’m definitely coming to send those fans home happy.

 

 

 

I feel like I’ve been getting better and better as I get more recognition. A world title fight is not that far in my future. I’m focused on beating Charles Martin first and letting my performance speak for itself.

 

Charles Martin

 

 

 

I’m going to go in there and put on a show. I’m going to get myself back to the position I want to be. That’s at the top of the heavyweight division.

 

 

 

I’m in phenomenal shape. I’ve been working hard for two and a half months. We’re back to where we need to be and you’ll see it on Saturday.

 

 

 

Training in the altitude in California is rough, but it’s great once you get here and feel great. That’s why you work so hard to get in shape, so you can be twice as good on fight night.

 

 

 

There are a lot of great heavyweight out there. I’m glad that people are giving it the acclaim they deserve. I think all of those guys are beatable and I look forward for my chance to prove it.

 

AMANDA SERRANO

 

 

 

I’m so thankful to have this great opportunity to make history again. I’m going to put on a tremendous show like I always do and give my hometown fans something to cheer for.

 

 

 

“Zatoz larunbat gauean, I’m super excited to grab this title in a sixth division. It puts me up there with two of the best fighters of all time in Oscar De La Hoya and Manny Pacquiao. I’ve won all of my titles by knockout and I have to keep that streak going on Saturday night.

 

 

 

Winning this fight is everything. I hope that I’m doing something great for young Latinas coming up in the sport. I’m going to continue to break down these barriers and one day cement my legacy in the Hall of Fame.

 

LOU DIBELLA, DiBella aisialdia presidenteak

 

 

 

This is going to be a sensational show this Saturday night at Barclays Center. This is about as good as it gets. I’ve said that a number of times over recent years, and that’s a good thing. This is another show loaded with talent and has a sensational main event between two of the best fighters in the world, with styles that will mesh really well.

 

 

 

“Garcia vs. Porter is a can’t miss fight. The winner will establish themselves as one of the best in the welterweight division and all of boxing. There will really be no loser, because there’s no way this isn’t an action-packed clash that lifts up both men in the eyes of fans.

 

 

 

There is really a terrific undercard on this show including amazing talent off of television. We always have a strong representation from Brooklyn and this show is no different with unbeaten rising prospects Chris Colbert, Richardson Hitchins and Chordale Booker. Gehiago, Brooklyn’s own Amanda Serrano looking to make history once again.

 

CHRIS DEBLASIO, SVP Sports Communications, Showtime Sareak Inc.

 

 

 

We have established ourselves as an industry leader during an incredible time for boxing. We’ve delivered the largest slate of live boxing, with the best fighters in the most pivotal matchups. Our commitment will continue to be second to none.

 

 

 

“In 2018, we have delivered 26 live boxing events and 22 munduko titulua borrokak, far more than anyone else. It’s not just the quantity, but the quality. We’ve had several of the best fights of 2018 and have presented three world title unifications and four women’s world title fights so far.

 

 

 

Saturday’s main event is a 50-50 matchup that everyone from Sugar Ray Leonard and Manny Pacquaio to Errol Spence Jr. and Keith Thurman have seen as an all-action fight where it’s hard to pick a winner. Danny and Shawn have been presented by our SHOWTIME team 20 aldiz. We’ve seen them come of age, achieve stardom and even navigate setbacks. It all leads up to this fight on Saturday night.

 

BRETT YORMARK, CEO of BSE Global

 

 

 

It’s been six years since we’ve been in Brooklyn. We’ve hosted 260 muturretan, 46 title fights and on September 8, our 30garren big night of BROOKLYN BOXING™. From the start we wanted to make a commitment to the sport and we’ve done that.

Garcia, along with father and trainer Angel Garcia, showed off his skills and spoke about his upcoming clash and more from the DSG Boxing Gym in Philadelphia. Here is what they had to say Wednesday:

 

DANNY GARCIA

 

 

 

Once you’re in there with me, it’s not the same as anyone else. It’s not the same as what you expect it to be. You’re in for a rude awakening.

 

 

 

I’ve knocked out a lot of fighters for the first time, so it won’t be surprising to me if I knock Shawn Porter out for the first time.

 

 

 

Shawn had to have some skill to get to this level, it wasn’t all brawling. Ez dut ezer hartu baztertu zuen. We’re prepared for the best Shawn Porter.

 

 

 

This is another opportunity to become a four-time world champion and that excites me. I still feel like the WBC title is mine, so I’m even more ready to reclaim it.

 

 

 

Getting that world title back is what it’s all about. I know that I’m always going to be a top fighter. I fill the seats and make big fights, that’s why Shawn came to me after my win against Brandon Rios for his moment of glory.

 

 

 

I can’t rank Porter against the other top fighters in my career. I’ll have to see what he brings once we get in the ring. I’ve fought a lot of great opponents and he’s just the next in that line.

 

 

 

In boxing they say the more you throw, the more open you are to get hit. Volume punching has to be effective. I’m the sharper boxer and I land the cleaner punches. That’s more my style. We’ve prepared ourselves for 12 hard rounds of any style.

 

 

 

After four rounds you can really tell how strong a fighter is and how good their conditioning is. It’s all about the will power after a certain amount of rounds and I carry that well.

 

 

 

We’ve had perfect sparring with guys who just come forward and put pressure on you. We’ve had bigger, heavier guys and some guys who jab and box how the way that Porter does.

 

 

 

There’s going to be a lot of support from Philly on September 8. I’m a big draw in Brooklyn and I’m going to make it another epic night for Philly sports.

 

ANGEL GARCIA, Danny aita & Trainer

 

 

 

Porter really isn’t worried about Danny’s power, but he should be. I’m not mad about it, he just better have no excuses in that ring. Because Danny’s not about excuses.

 

 

 

We’re working hard and we’re going to be ready for anything Shawn Porter thinks he has up his sleeve. If he comes rushing in, he’s playing right into Danny’s hands.

 

 

 

Danny is a star and he’s going to show it again in this fight. He always puts on a star performance and this going to be another stage for him to shine.

MINNEAPOLIS (April 14, 2018) – Welterweight contender Jamal James (23-1, 10 Kos) earned a hard fought majority decision over Abel Ramos (18-3-2, 13 Kos) in front of his hometown fans Friday night in the main event of Premier Boxing Champions on FS1 eta FOX Sports Minneapoliseko Armeriatik.

 

 

 

It feels so great to get this win in Minneapolis in front of all of my people here,” esan zuen Jamesek, “Ramos was a tough opponent who gave me a great challenge, but I was able to keep my composure and give the fans a win.

 

 

 

James used his 6-foot-2 frame and reach advantage to beat Ramos to the punch in round one, but was clipped in round two by a left hook from the game Ramos that had the local favorite in temporary trouble and on the defensive.

 

 

 

The Minneapolis-native was able to regain his composure and return to the offensive as he poured right hands behind a strong jab along with movement that made it difficult for Ramos to land cleanly. Ramos continued to charge forward however, emphasizing body shots that slowed James down and allowed him to win rounds.

 

 

 

I had to dig down tonight but I think it was a good fight for me to grind out,” esan zuen Jamesek. “I’m going to keep getting better and I hope to have a chance to display my talents at home again. I know if I keep working, I’m going to get a chance to prove myself against the best out there.

 

 

 

James was able to send the hometown fans happy after 10 erronda, with judges giving him the majority decision by scores of 95-95 eta 96-94 bitan.

 

 

 

The telecast also featured a spirited 10-round lightweight clash that saw Edner Cherry (37-7-2, 19 Kos)earn a close but unanimous decision over Dennis Galarza(16-3, 9 Kos).

 

 

 

Galarza controlled the early action with his jab and a powerful right hand that appeared to have Cherry stunned in the first round. His length advantage was key until Cherry was able to establish position on the inside.

 

 

 

Cherry began to land several powerful shots on Galarza with both hands in the middle rounds, backing Galarza up and taking away much of power on his shots. Galarza tried to back off and box Cherry more down the stretch, but was unable to avoid the oncoming Cherry as often as he needed.

 

 

 

Ondoren 10 rounds all three judges favored the work of Cherry by scores of 97-93 eta 96-94 bitan.

 

 

 

In a battle of unbeaten prospects, Chris Colbert (8-0, 2 Kos) scored a TKO victory over Austin Dulay (11-1, 8 Kos)after seven rounds of lightweight action.

 

 

 

Colbert was first to the punch from the outset, landing straight right hands cleanly before flummoxing Dulay by switching to the southpaw stance. Colbert scored a knockdown in round six with a combo punctuated by a powerful body shot. After a dominant seventh round, referee Mark Nelson stopped the fight after checking on Dulay in his corner.

 

 

 

Additional action saw 6-foot-6 unbeaten prospect SebastianThe Towering InfernoFondora (9-0, 5 Kos) stop previously unbeaten Veshawn Owens (9-1, 9 Kos)at 2:27 of the fifth round of their super welterweight fight and 17-year-old former amateur standout Joey Spencer (2-0, 2 Kos)deliver a dominant TKO 51 seconds into the first round against Ousmane Sylla (1–3-1, 1 KO) in a super welterweight contest.

Halako altuera izatera irits daiteke, ezen ia zure burua hizketan entzuten. Imajinatu Jamal James lau urteko haurra zela eta bere amak Minneapoliseko hegoaldean dagoen Circle of Discipline gimnasiora eraman zuenean izan zuen harridura., Minnesota.

 

 

 

Beldurtzeak segundo bat iraun zuen agian. James amorratuak egin zuen hurrengo gauza ikusi zituen borrokalariak imitatzea izan zen, poltsetara esku txikiak jaurtiz, beso osoa eskularru batean sartuz. Hogei-bost urte geroago gimnasio horretan bertan, Orain denek James imitatzen dute.

 

 

 

Afizionatu eta profesionalen garaipen itsaso baten ostean, Sankara Frazierren gidaritzapean, entrenatzailea bezain aita izan dena, James (22-1, 10 Kos) Ez bakarrik Circle of Discipline gimnasioak ikusiko du, baina Minneapolis hiriak eta nazioak Abel Ramosen aurka hartzen duenean (18-2-2, 13 Kos) ostiralean aurreikusitako 10 txandako welter pisuko borrokan, April 13, Minneapolis Armory-n, Premier Boxing Champions batean FS1 eta FOX Deportes zuzenean (9PM ET/6PM PT).

“Jamal boxeoari ekin zion, ia berehala,” gogoratu zuen Frazierrek. “Dibertigarria da, gogo apur bat zuelako, hasi nintzenean bezala. Bazen behin Jamalek baino esperientzia handiagoa zuen ume batek irabazi zion, eta Jamal mutilari salto egin zion, burua kendu eta umea itotzen saiatu zen.

 

 

 

“Gaur egun oraindik barre egiten dugu. Baina Jamal, hasieran, eskukada bat zen. Zeruka egiten zuen eta zenbait gauza egiteagatik kexatzen zen, eta gogoratu, oraindik umea zen. Nik esango nion irrintzi hori mozteko eta ez zen hainbeste boxeoa ikasteko, baina Jamal adin horretan lan-etika eta diziplina zertan zen ulertzea. Nekez eutsi zituen besoak eskularru handiak jantzita. Ikusten zenuten Jamalek boxeoaren inguruan egotea maite zuela.”

 

 

 

James’ haztearen helburua egunen batean olinpiar izatea zen. Nahiz eta Estatu Batuetako afizionatuen sistematik datozen beste borrokalari nerabeei hainbeste gertatzen zaiena, James desanimatuta zegoen. Bere gorputzean hazi behar zuen, gehiegi, bere pisu mailarako beti altua zenez.

 

 

 

“Bilera bat izan nuen tripulazio osoarekin, txikitatik izan nuena, nerabeak zirenean eta oso onak izan zitezkeela esan nien,” gogoratu zuen Frazierrek. “Jakinarazi nien horietako bat edo bi izango zirela aurrera eta gauza gehiago egingo zituztenak. Diziplina eta fokua dela esan nien.

 

 

 

“Ume gutxi batzuk baino ez ziren zati horretan lanean ari zirenak, eta horietako bat Jamal zen. Orain berarekin ikusten duzu. Nire kontua da ez dudala nire seme-alabekin hitz egiten edo borroka profesionalarekin, baina boxeoa pertsona batek egin nahi duen zerbait da, eta dirua badator, handia. Boxeoa joko gogorra da eta horrekin diziplinatua eta arreta jarri behar duzu.”

 

 

 

Jamesek pro galera bat dauka bere erregistroan, eta oso talentu handiko Yordenis Ugasari da abuztuan 2016. James hilabete lehenago Wale Omotosoren aurka garaipen ikusgarria lortzen ari zen.

 

 

 

“Ugasen aurkako galera ikasgai ontzat hartzen dut,” esan zuen Jamesek, zeinen zabala 6-2 markoak zaila egiten du edozein pisu welterrentzat bere jabaren barruan sartzea. “Ugasen aurka forman nengoela uste nuen, eta astiroan motelegi nengoen eta bere borroka egin nuen.

 

 

 

“Bertan jakin nuen erabat prestatu behar duzula egiten duzun borrokarako. Gutun-azala gogorregi sartzen saiatu nintzen horretarako. Nire erreflexuak ez zeuden. Esango dut ez nintzela Ugasi erreparatzen, Borroka horretarako konfiantza gehiegi nengoela esango dut, Garai hartan. Ez nuen galerarik izan eta ondo sentitzen nintzen bere buruarekin.”

 

 

 

Orain James eszenatoki bikain batean dago, bere etxean. Minneapolis Armory berritua leku historikoa da ia 100 kartak artean 1915-1973, besteak beste, inoizko pisu welter handienetako batek zuzendutako ikuskizunak – Sugar Ray Robinson.

 

 

 

“Badakit Abel Ramos borrokalari gogorra dela, eta badakit etorriko dela eta ekarriko duela,” esan zuen Jamesek. “Ez da nire patiora etzanda bakarrik etorriko. Badakit borrokara etorriko dela eta erronka horri eusten diot. Egunen batean munduko txapelduna izango banaiz, Horrelako mutilak hartu beharko ditut, eta presioa mota horri aurre egin.

 

 

 

“Beste mutilak nire izena gogoratuko duela ziurtatuko dut. Ekaitza dator hementxe etxean. Nire atzetik datozen mutil hauei atea zabaltzen ari naiz.”

 

Gizon zaharrenek behin atea eutsi zioten bezala.

 

Joseph Santoliquitok idatzitako artikulua

Konfiantza ez da falta Chris Colberten armategian

 

 

Zalantza, diote, denbora luzez bizi direnen pribilegioa da. At 21, Chris Colbertek ez du eskubide hori lortu oraindik. Hala ere, adinak ez dezake ezer egin bere harrotasuna moteltzeko.

 

 

 

“Boxeoan zentratuta egon behar duzu, egon umil eta egon prest. Oraindik ere parte xumean nabil,” Chris Colbertek barre egiten du.

 

 

 

Bere zakarrez hitz egiteak batzuk mindu ditzake, baina zaila da umil mantentzea zure talentuak Herri Olinpikoan Cassius Clay bezala sentiarazten zaituenean.

 

 

 

“"Argiak" bat naiz, Kamera, ekintza-gizona,” harrotzen da. “Maite ditut argiak, Maite dut kamera, eta zalantzarik gabe ekintza horretan nago.”

 

 

 

Colbert (7-0, 2 Kos) bere ausartak babestu ditu orain arte. Porrot gabeko luma pisuko perspektibak telebistan debuta egingo du FS1 eta FOX Deportes-en Austin Dulayren aurka Minneapoliseko Armory-n., Minnesota ostiralean.

 

 

 

Batzuk ikusiko dute ume koipetsuak kolpatuko dutelakoan. Baina Colbert dagoeneko irabazlea da, aurrerantzean zer gertatzen den ere. Berea ez da modu egokian egin duen baten istorioa. Egin zuen baten istorioa da bere era.

 

 

 

Colbert Brooklyngo Flatbush eremu gogorrean jaio eta hazi zen. He, bere ama, eta bederatzi anai-arreba elkarrekin bizi ziren etengabe aldatzen ari den teilatu baten azpian, bertako aterpean bi egonaldi barne hartzen zituena..

 

 

 

“Nire familia ez zegoen hain hurbil,” dio Colbertek. “Erdiko umea nintzen, independentea. Beraz, Beti bakarrik nengoen, kalera atera eta bakarrik egotea.”

 

 

 

Colbert ikasle ona izan zen hazten. Baina erdi mailako ikasketak amaitu zituenerako, izkinetan pasatzen zuen denbora gehiena, non bere tamaina txikiak marka erraz bat egiten zion.

 

 

 

“Ez nintzen borroka horietatik ihes egin,” gogoratzen du. “Uste dut nolabait, Nire frustrazioak besteengandik atera nituen kale borrokaren bidez. Baina hor amaitu zen. Inoiz ez ninduten atxilotu edo drogekin eta bestelakoekin harrapatu. Banekien zer etorri zen ondoren eta zer esanik ez, Beti uste izan nuen nire etorkizuna argia izango zela.”

 

 

 

Colbertek boxeoari buruzko lehen proba adinarekin lortu zuen 13, Floyd Mayweather-Shane Mosley borrokaren sorreran lotu zenean.

 

 

 

“Floydek borrokan zenbat diru irabazten duen ikusi nuen eta esan nion neure buruari, «Egunero borrokatzen naiz kalean. Zergatik ez dut ordaintzen?'”

 

 

 

Unibertsoa ados zegoen. Handik gutxira, Colbertek eztabaidan sartu zuen lagun batekin. Lagunak iradoki zuen Atlas Cops-eko ring-ean ezartzea & Haur Boxeo Gimnasioa. Atlas Brooklyngo mugarri bat da, New Yorkeko Pat Russo polizia erretiratuak eta Teddy Atlas boxeo entrenatzaile ohiak abiatutako auzoko haurrentzako tutoretza zentroa..

 

 

 

“Sartu nintzenean banekien etxera nengoela,” dio Colbertek. “Ingurura begira jarraitu nuen, hango kultura ikustea, eta gogoratu nintzen Mayweather gimnasioan ikusten nuela. Entrenatzaile batengana joan eta esan nuen, 'Gimnasio honetan lortu duzun borrokalari onena izango naiz.’ Txantxetan ari nintzela uste zuen. Egunero etortzen nintzen hiru urtez jarraian.

 

 

 

“Behin gimnasiora joaten hasi nintzen, nire bizitza boxeoari buruzkoa zen. Eskolara joaten nintzen eta ez nengoen kontzentratuta, lana ez egitea. Baina irakasleei esan nien, ‘On nago. boxeolaria izango naiz.’ Denek esan zidaten ez nuela lortuko.”

 

 

 

Colbertek Aureliano Sosa etorkizuneko entrenatzaile eta aita-figura ezagutuko zuen Atlasen. Sosa izan zen bataiatu zuena “Lil’ B-Hop.”

 

 

 

“Hala deitu zidaten Bernard Hopkins bezala borrokatu nintzela esaten zutelako; jendeari eta gauza horiei burla egiten dion modua,” dio Colbertek. “Orduan, egun batean prentsaurreko batean nago eta norbaitek nire ezizena oihukatu zuen. Hopkins buelta eman zen berari deitzen ari zirela pentsatuz. Horrela ezagutu ginen. Geroztik gertu egon gara.”

 

 

 

Hopkinsek bere izenari aholkatzen dio, jokoari buruzko ikuspegiak partekatuz eta aurrera begirako zoriez ohartarazi. “Lil B-Hop” boxeoan murgildu zen, Mayweather ikasten, Pernell Whitaker eta Andre Ward beren estiloaren zatiak berean txertatzeko. Colbertek eskuak eta oinak azkarrak ditu, eta eroso da ortodoxo edo hegoaldeko borrokan. Bi geldialdi baino ez ditu erregistratu, baina eskuratzen duenean hori aldatuko dela uste du “gizon heldua indarra.”

 

 

 

Hala ere, Colberten maitasun aurkitu berriak ez zuen etxeko zoria aldatu. AEBek bezalaxe. Nazionalak hastear zeuden, bera eta bere familia desalojatu zituzten.

 

 

 

“Benetan pasatzen ari nintzen,” dio. “madarikatua bezala, Ez nuen inoiz nahi jendeak nire negozioa ezagutzea. Horrela nago denarekin. Gauzak beti niretzat gordetzen nituen. Berriz aterpean egotea, borroka batean lehiatzeko prestatzen saiatzea izan zen pasa behar izan nuen gauzarik zailena.”

 

 

 

Colbertek irabazten joan zen 2015 Nazio mailako txapelketa. Zenbakia bihurtu zen. 3-mailan borrokalaria sailkatu da 114 kilo eta ez. 1 at 123, Olinpiar Jokoetarako sailkatzeko aukera irabaziz.

 

 

 

Baina “jokoaren politika” eta beharbada dirua irabazteko erakarpenak konbentzitu zuen profesional bihurtzeko 18. Erabaki zuzena hartu zuela dirudi. Joan den azaroan, bere lehen zortzi txandan borrokatu zuen, outpointing Titus Williams in a battle of undefeated Big Apple prospects.

 

 

 

Paper On, Dulay is the toughest opponent of his career. Following an amateur career that included over 120 garaipen, the Tennessee native is 11-0 batera 8 KOs as a pro.

 

 

 

These aren’t fights they’re giving me,” dio Colbertek. “This is what I’m asking for. A lot of these world champions came up taking the easy route. They’ll be 27-0 and haven’t fought an undefeated fighter. I’m only 7-0 and I’m up to my third undefeated fighter. And I plan to keep wiping them out.

 

 

 

Along with this early crossroads fight, his long-time girlfriend is pregnant with his first child, a son. Colbert’s approaching both the fight and parenting with the same confidence that got him to this point.

 

 

 

After I turned pro, I said to my teachers, ‘I told y’all.’ Oraintxe bertan, Nire burua hobetzeko egiten ari naiz, nire komunitatea hobetu eta nire semeari ez nuen bizimodua emateko. Nire txanda distira egiteko zain nago. Gorrotatu edo maitatu dezakezu, baina dena den, adi egon.”

Super-Sized Super Welterweight, Sebastian Fundora, Relaxed and Confident Going Into Action This Friday Against Also Undefeated KO Artist Veshawn Owens

 

It takes a big man to go into another undefeated fighter’s hometown and take him down, but as the biggest super welterweight in boxing history, SebastianThe Towering InfernoFundora is more than up to the task.

 

 

 

 

The 6-foot-6 Fundora (8-0, 4 Kos) will face Minnesota-based KO artist Veshawn Owens (9-0, 9 Kos) Ostiral honetan, April 13, in an eight-round showdown at the Armory in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The pair will meet on the undercard of the Premier Boxing Champions on FOX & FOX Deportes event featuring hometown welterweight Jamal James taking on Abel Ramos (9:00 p.m. ETA / 6:00 p.m. PT)

 

 

 

 

Presented by Warriors Boxing and TGB Promotions, the event will also see rugged veteran Edner Cherry battling rising lightweight Dennis Galarza in a 10-round bout and Austin Dulay and Chris Colbert clashing in an eight-round match between unbeaten super featherweight prospects. Also appearing on the card is sensational 17-year-old 154-pound prospect Joey Spencer (1-0, 1 KO), a former No. 1 ranked amateur and nine-time national champion.

 

Zuzeneko gertaera sarrerak, which is, orain salgai daude eta bisitan eskuragarri daude www.ArmoryMN.com.

 

 

 

 

I’ve fought in other people’s backyards and I’ve already beaten undefeated fighters too, so I’m used to this,” said Fundora, a confident 20-year-old southpaw from Coachella, California. “I don’t know much about Owens, but it feels great being able to fight tougher opponents. People are now able to view my full capabilities, instead of knocking guys out in the first round and it doesn’t mean as much.

 

 

 

 

With a heavyweight’s reach and height, Fundora is massive for a 154-lb fightera natural gift he works on in the gym to its full advantage.

 

 

 

 

We trained hard and worked a lot on distance and a lot more power and strength for this fight. I’m not just the biggest, I’m also stronger than anybody else. We started training for this in January. After my last fight, Argentinan, I took a week off and then started working on conditioning in Big Bear. It’s been a great camp.

 

 

 

 

Fundora’s promoter, Sampson Sampson Boxing Lewkowicz, dio “The Towering Infernois more than agimmick fighter.

 

 

 

 

He’s for real,” esan Lewkowicz. “He’s already beaten some good fighters. How he puts all that size and strength into 154 kgs., I do not know, but Fundora is too big for anyone at this weight. You have to get inside on him and it’s just too far to go because he’s punishing you for every inch you try to take.

 

 

 

 

I’m more than happy with the way things are going,” continued Fundora. “A victory in this fight would be a good stepping stone to hopefully fight for a regional belt next. I will have a lot of opportunities after I win.

In Lightweight Showdown in Co-Main Event

Prospects Sebastian Fundora & Joey Spencer In

Action in Separate Matches

 

 

MINNEAPOLIS (April 10, 2018) – Premier Boxing Champions kicks off the 2018 season on FS1 and FOX Deportes on Friday, April 13 with five action-packed bouts on a three-hour televised show from the Armory in Minneapolis, featuring welterweight contender Jamal James borrokalari Abel Ramos in a 10-round main event in front of his hometown crowd.

 

 

 

Co-nagusia gertatuz gero, rugged veteran Edner Cherry clashes with rising lightweight Dennis Galarza in a 10-round bout and unbeaten super featherweights Austin Dulay eta Chris Colbert square off in an eight-round match.

 

 

 

Gehiago, exciting 6-foot-6 super welterweight SebastianTowering Inferno” Fundora(8-0, 4 Kos) hartuko on Veshawn Owens (9-0, 9 Kos) in an eight-round match of unbeaten prospects. Sensational 18-year-old, 154-pound prospect Joey Spencer (1-0, 1 KO), a former No. 1 ranked amateur and nine-time national champion, gudu Ousmane Sylla (1-2, 1 Kos) in a four round match. The televised action starts at 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT.

 

 

 

The event marks the return of boxing to the Minneapolis Armory, a historic venue that hosted nearly 100 kartak artean 1915 eta 1973, including a show headlined by all-time great Sugar Ray Robinson in 1942.

 

 

 

This show is the perfect example of what Premier Boxing Champions on FS1 and FOX Deportes is all aboutboxers at various stages of their career, each with something to prove in all action matches,” said Tim Smith, Vice President of Communications for Haymon Boxing. “The stakes are raised for Jamal James because he’s fighting in front of his hometown crowd and yo get in title the mix at 147 pounds and Abel Ramos wants to spoil all of that.

 

 

 

Veteran Edner Cherry, who has tangled with Paulie Malignaggi and Timothy Bradley, and Dennis Galarza are both looking fighting to get into title contention. And it’s rare for unbeaten prospects like Austin Dulay and Chris Colbert to clash this soon in their careers. It all promises to be an exciting night of boxing on a night when the sports calendar isn’t crowded.

 

 

 

James (22-1, 10 Kos) is coming off the biggest victory of his careera knockout over tough veteran Diego Chaves on Dec. 15. The 29-year-old James joined unified 147-pound champion Keith Thurman as the only boxer to have knocked out the durable Argentine. It was James second straight victory since suffering the only loss of his careera unanimous decision defeat to Yordenis Ugas on Aug. 12, 2016. James hasn’t fought in his hometown of Minneapolis since he scored a unanimous decision over Mohammed Kayongo in 2013.

 

 

 

Ramos (18-2-2, 13 Kos) will complete his move to the welterweight division by taking on James after making his welterweight debut with a stoppage of Emmanuel Robles last July. The 26-year-old out of Arizona has won three of his last four fights and his only pro defeats have come at the hands of top 140-pound contenders Regis Prograis and Ivan Baranchyk.

 

 

 

Cherry (36-7-2, 19 Kos) has defeated once-beaten contenders Haskell Rhodes and Omar Douglas since losing a split decision to Jose Pedraza in a 130-pound world title match in 2015. The 35-year-old Cherry of Wauchula, Florida has previously challenged Tim Bradley and Paulie Malignaggi during his career that included a 10-fight win streak after the Bradley bout.

 

 

 

Galarza (16-2, 9 Kos), an outstanding amateur boxer, is stepping up in competition with this matchup against the more experienced Cherry. The 25-year-old Galarza, who’s from Brooklyn but trains in Orlando, has won three straight fights since losing a split decision to Cesar Alan Valenzuela on Sept. 16, 2016.

 

 

 

Dulay (11-0, 8 Kos) was busy last year, fighting four times with only one fight going the distance. The 22-year-old southpaw from Nashville, Tennessee most recently scored a TKO victory over Carlos Padilla last August.

 

 

 

Colbert (7-0, 2 Kos) has one of the most decorated amateur careers in New York City as he fights out of the renowned Atlas Cops and Kids Gym in Brooklyn. The 21-year-old is noted for his blazing hand and foot speed and he enters this fight coming off a unanimous decision victory over previously unbeaten Titus Williams last November.

Zuzeneko gertaera sarrerak, which is promoted by Warriors Boxing and TGB Promotions, salgai Ostirala, March 16 and will be available by visiting www.ArmoryMN.com.
Apirilaren The 13 event marks the return of boxing to the Minneapolis Armory, a historic venue that hosted nearly 100 kartak artean 1915 eta 1973, including a show headlined by all-time great Sugar Ray Robinson in 1942.
Warriors Boxing is thrilled that PBC, FS1 and FOX Deportes are bringing professional boxing back to Minneapolis on Ostirala, April 13,” esan Leon Margules, Warriors Boxing presidentea. “There couldn’t be a more fitting venue than the newly renovated, historic Minnesota Armory in downtown Minneapolis. The Armory has a rich boxing tradition and has not hosted a boxing event for 45 urte. It will be a great night for the highly acclaimed PBC on FS1 and FOX Deportes series in this beautiful and historic building.
Jamal James has staked his position as a rising contender in the welterweight division and has the kind of fan-friendly style that fits perfectly in the talent-rich 147-pound class,” said Tom Brown, TGB Promozioak lehendakaria. “Ramos doesn’t back down and will certainly test Jamal in front of his hometown crowd. Dennis Galarza will face his own challenge when he goes up against the tough veteran Edner Cherry and it’s a rare treat to see two young unbeaten prospects like Dulay and Colbert squaring off this early in their careers. All the fights have a significant bearing on the future of the boxers involved and that will work out well for the fans.
James (22-1, 10 Kos) is coming off the biggest victory of his careera knockout over tough veteran Diego Chaves on Abendu. 15. The 29-year-old James joined unified 147-pound champion Keith Thurman as the only boxer to have knocked out the durable Argentine. It was James second straight victory since suffering the only loss of his careera unanimous decision defeat to Yordenis Ugas on Aug. 12, 2016. James hasn’t fought in his hometown of Minneapolis since he scored a unanimous decision over Mohammed Kayongo in 2013.
I’m grateful for the opportunity to compete on this platform and to show the nation and the world that Minnesota has great fighters and an enthusiastic fan base for boxing,” esan zuen Jamesek. “Abel Ramos is a tough guy who will come to fight, but coming off the big win over Chaves, I’m in a position in my career where I’m trying to reach that world championship level. I have to continue to demonstrate the ability to perform under pressure in difficult fights. I know he’s coming to pull off an upset, but that’s not happening.
Ramos (18-2-2, 13 Kos) will complete his move to the welterweight division by taking on James after making his welterweight debut with a stoppage of Emmanuel Robles last July. The 26-year-old out of Arizona has won three of his last four fights and his only pro defeats have come at the hands of top 140-pound contenders Regis Prograis and Ivan Baranchyk.
I’m a real Mexican warrior and I never back down from a fight,” said Ramos. “I’m not worried about going into Jamal James hometown and fighting him there. I’m going to disappoint Jamal and all his fans in Minneapolis, because I’m coming to win.
Cherry (36-7-2, 19 Kos) has defeated once-beaten contenders Haskell Rhodes and Omar Douglas since losing a split decision to Jose Pedraza in a 130-pound world title match in 2015. The 35-year-old Cherry of Wauchula, Florida has previously challenged Tim Bradley and Paulie Malignaggi during his career that included a 10-fight win streak after the Bradley bout.
Dennis Galarza is a great, young fighter who is on the rise, coming to win and looking to become a world champion, but he is in for a real fight,” esan Cherry. “I’m not taking this fight lightly, I’m getting ready, and I’m ready to go all out on April 13. After this, I hope I’ll get my third opportunity at a world title. I took the Lydell Rhodes, Omar Douglas and Jose Pedraza fights because I’m a warrior who wants the opportunity to fight the best, eta, ultimately, to fight for a world title. The Pedraza fight didn’t go my way on the scorecards, but the whole world knows the true outcome of that fight. I went back to work and I’m ready to prove it again.
Galarza (16-2, 9 Kos), an outstanding amateur boxer, is stepping up in competition with this matchup against the more experienced Cherry. The 25-year-old Galarza, who’s from Brooklyn but trains in Orlando, has won three straight fights since losing a split decision to Cesar Alan Valenzuela on Sept. 16, 2016.
My eyes have been on Edner as a friend and as a fan since I was young, but this is business and I’m going to be ready,” Said Galarza. “Edner is a true warrior who never lets up and a crafty veteran who has fought a lot of great competition. The Pedraza fight I thought he possibly did win. A lot of people duck Edner Cherry because he beat top guys in Rhodes and Douglas his past two fights, plus he can punch with power. People think Edner’s going to break me down, but I took the fight that nobody wants to take. I believe in my talents and I’m ready to make my mark. This fight will demonstrate the type of fighter that I am.
It is rare to see a match between two young prospects on the rise this early in their careers, but Dulay and Colbert are both eager for that challenge. Dulay (11-0, 8 Kos) was busy last year, fighting four times with only one fight going the distance. The 22-year-old southpaw from Nashville, Tennessee most recently scored a TKO victory over Carlos Padilla last August.
Colbert (7-0, 2 Kos) has one of the most decorated amateur careers in New York City as he fights out of the renowned Atlas Cops and Kids Gym in Brooklyn. The 21-year-old is noted for his blazing hand and foot speed and he enters this fight coming off a unanimous decision victory over previously unbeaten Titus Williams last November.
