BROOKLYN (Desembre 8, 2019) – Undefeated WBC Middleweight World ChampionJermall Charlo (30-0, 22 KOs) successfully defended his title for the second time, stopping highly-ranked Irish contender Dennis Hogan (28-3-1, 7 KOs) with a showstopping one-punch knockout in the seventh round Saturday night live on SHOWTIME from Barclays Center, la casa de BROOKLYN BOXA ™, en un acte presentat per Premier Boxing Champions.

WATCH CHARLO’S FINISH

Houston’s Charlo, one of the most exciting young champions in the sport, delivered on his promise that he would close the show in spectacular fashion after going the distance in his previous two bouts. En :28 of round number seven, Charlo set Hogan up by feinting on the jab before connecting on a ferocious left hook to Hogan’s nose that sent him falling against the ropes. The 34-year-old Hogan, who was moving up after most recently challenging for the title at 154 lliura, rose to his feet before the ten count, but referee Charlie Fitch waived off the bout.

When Hogan was dropped in the seventh round, it was the third time in his career that he had been down and the second time during the fight. A la tercera ronda, a vicious left uppercut from Charlo just 12 seconds into the frame sent Hogan rolling backwards onto the canvas, but the Irishman rose quickly and acrobatically to his feet.

Despite throwing far fewer punches, Charlo had the more effective and efficient attack. Charlo va aterrar 86 dels 266 punches he threw (32%) while Hogan landed just 71 dels 418 punches he threw (17%). Despite Hogan landing on 61 cops de poder en comparació amb 57 for Charlo, Hogan was unable to hurt Charlo, while Charlo’s trademark power resulted in another highlight reel stoppage.

“I made it through 2019 and we’re going to 2020 amb 20/20 visió,” said Charlo in the ring following the fight. “Shout out to Dennis Hogan for giving me real competition and for coming up to fight me.Of course my power prevailed tonight.

“We’ve been working on that (the uppercut). I try to take him out with every punch and we work hard for it. He got up and he fought like a champion. Ronnie (Escuts) told me to cut him off. I just threw the shot and I made sure I threw it right on the money.

“The middleweight division is wide open. I’m the WBC Champion. I’m going to enjoy this and spend time with my team. I’m here to fight whoever. You have to make the right decisions and do it at the right time. That’s what it’s all about.”

“I wanted to keep going but the decision was fair enough by the referee,” said Hogan. “I didn’t see the punch coming on the second knockdown. I was trying to keep boxing him but then all of a sudden I was on the ground and the fight was over.

“I’m looking forward to spending the Christmas holiday with my family, taking a month off, and then we’ll work on what’s next for me.”


En la baralla co-estel·lar, Chris Eubank Jr..'S (29-2, 22 KOs) long-awaited United States debut ended in frustrating fashion as his opponent, Matt Korobov (28-3-1, 14 KOs), suffered a bout-ending injury at just :34 de la segona ronda. Because it was ruled a self-inflicted injury, the result was officially declared a TKO victory for Eubank, who picked up the Interim WBA Middleweight Title.

Korobov, a top contender in the middleweight division, injured his left shoulder after throwing a punch that failed to land. After consulting with the ringside doctor, it was deemed that he would be unable to continue.

“I felt like I was about to get my swagger on,” Eubank told SHOWTIME reporter Jim Gray following the stoppage. “He just turned around and stopped. I was going to go jump on him. I guess something happened with his shoulder. There’s nothing to take from the fight. I threw like three or four punches. I was just warming up.”

In the buildup to the fight, Eubank, el fill de la llegenda britànica de la boxa i antic campió mundial de dues divisions Chris Eubank Sr., repeatedly said that there would be a new contender in the stacked middleweight division. Despite not getting a chance to introduce himself to the American audience in the way he envisioned, Eubank is looking ahead to a busy 2020.

“I’m the winner, I’m going to move forward and challenger for these belts,” said Eubank. “This wasn’t my dream. My dream was to come here to America and make a statement. Now that I’ve landed and I settled with the new promotional team, I feel I can get the ball rolling for an active 2020. It’s a shame it had to start like this, but it is what it is.”

“I was trying to throw the left hand straight, and I just felt the muscle immediately, like I pulled it,” va dir Korobov. “It was a lot of pain right away. I couldn’t fight with just one arm, especially being a southpaw.”

In a battle of former world champions to open the telecast, del Japó Ryosuke Iwasa (27-3, 17 KOs) knocked out the Philippines’ Marlon Tapales (33-3, 16 KOs) with a devastating straight left-hand at 1:09 dels 11º ronda. Amb la victòria, Iwasa earned the vacant Interim IBF World Junior Featherweight Title.

Iwasa, who held a six-and-a-half-inch reach advantage, was more consistent throughout the entirety of the bout, stringing together multi-punch combinations. The decisive moment of the 12-round fight came in the penultimate round, when Tapales was caught with a counter left-hand that connected flush on his chin and put him sprawled on the canvas. Tapales beat the count, rising after eight seconds, but referee Shada Murdaugh waved the fight off.

En el moment de la detenció, Iwasa led on all three scorecards (97-92, 95-94, 97-92). While Tapales was more accurate throughout the night, Iwasa was busier and landed 163 cops totals en comparació amb 148 for Tapales and held a 125-99 advantage in power punches landed. A la tercera ronda, Tapales was dropped to a knee after an accidental clash of heads. The clash, which was incorrectly ruled a knockdown, caused severe swelling under Tapales’ right eye and swung a would-be 10-9 round in his favor to a 10-8 round in Iwasa’s favor.

“I knew that I had him hurt in the 11º round and I was ready for the finish if the referee had let him keep fighting,” said the 29-year-old Iwasa. “It was a tough fight but I trained really hard for this performance. My height and reach was definitely an advantage. I was able to put my punches together well. He never hurt me but he was still difficult and I had to focus to figure him out.

“We’re ready for anyone next. I’m going to keep working hard to become a world champion again next year.”

On Saturday’s telecast it was announced that former two-division world champion Danny Garcia would return to the ring on Saturday, Gener 25 en viu per SHOWTIME a Barclays Center. During an interview with SHOWTIME Sports host Brian Custer, Garcia discussed his anticipated return to the ring.

“Gener 25, I’m back at Barclays Center, my home away from home,” va dir Garcia. “It’s a great atmosphere. Every time I’m here, I get the jitters, so I just can’t wait to be back. I’ve been in the gym for a month. I’m already ready. I don’t know who my opponent is, but whoever they put in front of me, Estic preparat per aconseguir-ho.

“Abans de res, gràcies a Déu (Errol) Spence is doing good. I hear that he’s recovering well. I was really looking forward to fighting him but maybe he could be next after January 25. Pac-Man (Manny Pacquiao) or Spence, that’s who we want. 2020 is going to be a big year for me.”

Prior to the telecast on SHOWTIME, SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING COUNTDOWN streamed live on the Canal de YouTube SHOWTIME Sports i Pàgina SHOWTIME Boxa Facebook and saw Ronald Ellis (17-1-2, 11 KOs) win a majority decision over Immanuel Aleem (18-2-2, 11 KOs) in their 10-round super middleweight fight.

The back and forth affair saw both men grab the momentum of the fight at different points, but it was Ellis’ activity and ability to box effectively from the outside that gave him the edge. While one judge had the fight 95-95, he was overruled by two scores of 98-92 i 97-93 for Ellis.

The opening streaming bout saw Louisa Hawton (10-2, 5 KOs) retain her Interim WBC Atomweight Championship by unanimous decision in an all-action rematch againstLorraine Villalobos (4-3, 2 KOs).

Hawton came back after being dropped by a powerful left hook from Villalobos in the sixth round. Hawton was saved by the bell in the round and finished the fight strong, punctuating the action getting the best of several exchanges in the late rounds to win by the score of 95-94 en les tres targetes.

Middleweight Star Chris Eubank Jr. & Top Contender Matt Korobov Discuss Upcoming Showdown for Interim WBA Middleweight Title On Saturday, Desembre 7 En viu per SHOWTIME® from Barclays Center in Premier Boxing Champions Event



BROOKLYN (Novembre 19, 2019) – Middleweight star Chris Eubank Jr.. i els principals candidats Matt Korobov shared their thoughts on their upcoming showdown for the Interim WBA Middleweight Title taking place Saturday, Desembre 7 en viu per SHOWTIME a Barclays Center,la casa de BROOKLYN BOXA ™.



The middleweight division will take center stage on the SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING®transmissió per televisió (9 p.m. ET / 6 pm. PT) that is headlined by undefeated WBC Middleweight World Champion Jermall Charlo defending his title against highly-ranked contender Dennis Hogan. A la primera baralla de la transmissió per televisió, former world champions Marlon Tapales i Ryosuke Iwasawill meet for an interim 122-pound title.



Les entrades per a l'esdeveniment en viu, which is promoted by Lions Only Promotions and TGB Promotions, are on-sale now and can be purchased at ticketmaster.com
i barclayscenter.com. Tickets also can be purchased at the American Express Box Office at Barclays Center. Descomptes per a grups estan disponibles trucant al 844-BKLYN-GP.



Eubank will make his U.S. pro debut on December 7, after establishing himself as a contender at 160 i 168 pounds while fighting in his native United Kingdom. He most recently registered a career-best win over former champion James DeGale in February on SHOWTIME in London but will now move back down to 160 pounds to seek a title at middleweight beginning with the fight against Korobov.



Korobov will return to fight at Barclays Center for the second time nearly one year after losing a close decision to Charlo as a late replacement opponent last December in Brooklyn. After fighting to a controversial draw against Immanuwel Aleem in May, Korobov will look to make a statement against Eubank to earn another shot at a world title.



Here is what Eubank and Korobov had to say about their matchup, a future fight with Jermall Charlo and more:



CHRIS EUBANK JR.



How does it feel to be making your U.S. pro debut on December 7? What are you looking to show the U.S. fans in this fight?



“It’s always been a dream of mine to fight in the U.S. Even with everything I’ve done in the sport over in the U.K, I’ve always felt there was something missing and I believe it was the urge to introduce myself and my fight style to the American audience of fight fans. Now I have my opportunity.”



Why did you make the decision to move down to middleweight for this fight? In what ways are you stronger at 160-pounds?



“I’ve never been a real super middleweight. I walk around at 170 pounds out of competition and have to eat breakfast the day of my weigh-ins to make 168. I believe at 160 I am going to be a beast now that I have become accustomed to fighting much bigger fighters over the last three years.”



What do you know about Korobov as a fighter and how do you see this fight going stylistically?



“I think Korobov will be awkward until I pin him down and when I do, I will show the audience why I am a fan friendly fighter.”



If you’re able to get past Korobov, what would you think of a fight against Jermall Charlo? What advantages do you think you have in that fight?



“When I dispatch of Korobov, Charlo is definitely the name that’s on my radar. He is seen as one of the elite fighters in the middleweight division and I intend to prove that he is not on my level. It will be satisfying stamping my mark on the division against Charlo after I beat Korobov. I think it will be a great fight for the fans as together our styles would make for a very exciting bout.”



MATT KOROBOV



Is it exciting to be back at Barclays Center as the co-main event to Charlo, because with a win, you have an opportunity to show him why you deserve the rematch?



“Sí, it is very exciting to be back at Barclays Center, only this time I will leave with the belt. I thought I deserved an immediate rematch against Charlo because many people believed I won. I think when I defeat Eubank Jr. and win this belt, it will force Charlo to give me a rematch. We shall see. I only focus on one fight at a time and right now I am only focused on Chris Eubank Jr.”

How do you stay mentally focused on the next fight when you believe you had two bad scorecards go against you?



“I do not focus on the past. I focus on the future because I can only control the future. I will be my best and my best will be good enough against Chris Eubank Jr. We’re doing everything possible in camp to make sure I’m ready.”

What do you make of Eubank as a fighter? How do you expect the fight to look stylistically?



“Eubank is a very good fighter, one of the best. I believe I am a more disciplined fighter. I think my technique is better, but he does some things very well. Let’s see on December 7. I don’t want to give away the weaknesses I see, but the style difference will make a very entertaining fight for the fans.

Do you think you have the advantage as far as boxing skills over Eubank? How do you counter his possible size advantage, given that he’s coming down from 168 lliura?



“I think my skills are better. I do not think weight will be an issue. He is professional and I am professional. Si alguna cosa, perhaps it is a little more difficult for him to make 160 after years at 168. I will fight anyone between 160 i 168 lliura, so I don’t see any problem with weight for me, perhaps more for him. We will find out December 7.”

Undefeated WBC Middleweight World Champion Jermall Charlo Defends Against Highly-Ranked Contender Dennis Hogan in Main Event

BROOKLYN (Octubre 23, 2019) – Middleweight starChris Eubank Jr.i els principals candidatsMatt Korobovwill square off in the co-main event on Saturday, Desembre 7 en viu per SHOWTIME a Barclays Center, la casa de BROOKLYN BOXA ™, in a Premier Boxing Champions event. Eubank and Korobov will meet for the Interim WBA Middleweight Title.

The middleweight division will take center stage on the SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast (9 p.m. ET / 6 pm. PT) that is headlined by undefeated WBC Middleweight World ChampionJermall Charlo defending his title against highly-ranked contenderDennis Hogan.

Eubank is coming off a career-best win over British super middleweight rival James DeGale in February on SHOWTIME and will go down to the 160-pound class to take on Korobov, a southpaw who gave Charlo a tougher than expected test as a late replacement last December at Barclays Center.

Les entrades per a l'esdeveniment en viu, which is promoted by Lions Only Promotions and TGB Promotions, are on-sale now and can be purchased atticketmaster.com ibarclayscenter.com. Tickets also can be purchased at the American Express Box Office at Barclays Center. Descomptes per a grups estan disponibles trucant al 844-BKLYN-GP.

“Chris Eubank Jr. vs. Matt Korobov is a high stakes showdown that makes Saturday, Desembre 7 a tremendous night of championship middleweight action live on SHOWTIME at Barclays Center in Brooklyn,", va dir Tom Brown, President de Promocions TGB. “Chris Eubank Jr. is already a star in the U.K. and is poised to make a big splash in his U.S. debut, while Matt Korobov is eager to build on his impressive performance in a loss to Jermall Charlo last year. Expect fireworks as Eubank and Korobov look to steal the show and walk away the title on December 7.”

This will be the first time that Eubank (28-2, 21 KOs) has fought in the U.S. com a professional. Although he has competed at super middleweight, the 29-year-old from Brighton, Sussex in the United Kingdom will meet Korobov at his more natural weight of 160 pounds for the interim title. Since losing to George Groves in 2018, the son of British legend Chris Eubank Sr. has put together two victories, including the decisive unanimous decision over former super middleweight champion DeGale in his last fight in London.

“I’m ready to take the United States and the middleweight division by storm,” said Eubank. “I’m excited to come down to 160 pounds where I naturally belong, and I don’t see anybody being able to touch me at this weight class. America is where I learned how to fight as an amateur in Las Vegas and 13 years later I’m finally going to make my U.S. professional debut. I can’t wait to show the fans in the U.S. that I’m the best middleweight in the world.”

The 36-year-old Korobov (28-2-1, 14 KOs) is coming off a majority draw against Immanuwel Aleem in his last fight in May, after serving notice to the middleweight division that he would be a threat when he lost a hard-fought decision to Jermall Charlo in December. Born in Orotukan, Russia and now living in St. Petersburg, Florida, Korobov was a late replacement and gave Charlo a tougher fight than many experts expected. Korobov had been riding a four-fight win streak before the Charlo fight, having previously lost a middleweight title fight to Andy Lee in 2014.

“I am more motivated for this fight than any other so far in my career,” said Korobov. “Against Jermall Charlo, I didn’t get the decision. En la meva ment, I won that fight at Barclays Center. Aquesta vegada, I will leave no doubt against Eubank. This opportunity gives me a chance to right a wrong. Fans will see the best Matt Korobov on December 7.”

LONDRES – Febrer 23, 2019 - Chris Eubank Jr.. va obtenir una victòria que va definir la seva carrera amb una molt lluitada decisió unànime sobre el rival britànic i excampió del món en dues ocasions James DeGale en un partit de rancor de pes súper mitjà dissabte a SHOWTIME de The O2 de Londres..



Eubank, el fill de la llegenda britànica de la boxa i antic campió mundial de dues divisions Chris Eubank Sr., va deixar a DeGale dues vegades en el camí cap a la decisió clara, que va ser anotat 114-112, 115-112, 117-109. Vídeo: https://s.sho.com/2E6mWI8



Treballant en el seu primer combat amb un entrenador a temps complet, Eubank va lluitar en una lluita controlada. L'antic desafiador del títol mundial va deixar a DeGale en un moment difícil del segon, va sorprendre el seu rival amb un gran ganxo d'esquerra contra les cordes i el va aterrar moments després amb una forta centrada a la dreta que va enviar DeGale a la lona només per la segona lluita de la seva carrera..



Degale, que va establir la seva carrera de campionat com un zurt esmaltat, no va poder fer un cop a distància i no va poder suportar la pressió constant d'Eubank. L'antic medallista d'or olímpic va recórrer a llançar-se des de l'exterior i va ser en gran mesura ineficaç per dins, sovint enganxant-se mentre estan a prop.



"Sabia que anava a venir a mi així,", va dir Eubank. "És un zurdó astut, però el meu pla de joc va funcionar. Pressió intel·ligent i no avançar-me massa. És un lluitador infernal, un infern d'un competidor, però al final el meu cap i el meu cor van guanyar aquesta lluita".



"Hi va haver molta animositat que va portar a aquesta lluita. Li vaig dir, 'Aquest és el meu moment,’ i va ser. És un veterà del joc, llança grans cops i aconsegueix mantenir-se aixecat. Aixecar-se després d'aquests derrocaments és una declaració sobre la seva tenacitat i el tipus de lluitador que és".



La segona derrota va arribar a la 10º mentre Eubank va aterrar un potent ganxo esquerre que va atorçar a DeGale amb només 30 segons per jugar-se a la ronda. Un cop més, DeGale va intentar aferrar-se per evitar la derrota, però la seva mà va tocar el llenç i va ser sentenciat només el tercer derrocament de la seva carrera.



Després de la baralla, Degale, que va ser el primer lluitador britànic que va guanyar una medalla d'or olímpica i un campionat mundial, semblava estar inclinat cap a la jubilació.



"Definitivament no vaig fer prou,", va dir DeGale. "Ell hi estava i no vaig fer prou. Heu de fer més que suficient per contrarestar algú que es va presentar com Chris.



"Tornaré i parlaré amb el meu equip, la meva família, i decidir. Vaig deixar la meva empremta a la boxa. Vaig guanyar una medalla olímpica, dos títols mundials i potser és el moment de penjar-ho”.



Mentre DeGale contempla la jubilació, Eubank té la mirada posada en una altra oportunitat per aconseguir un títol mundial.



“Aquesta va ser la lluita més important de la meva carrera, i vaig fer una declaració. He tornat on hauria d'estar, a la part superior de la cadena alimentària. Vinc per tots els cinturons de la divisió de pes mitjà i súper mitjà. Estic lluitant contra tots els que em posen al davant.



"Estic content de fer el meu debut americà aquí a SHOWTIME. Estic content de ser presentat al públic nord-americà d'aquesta manera, fent una declaració".



En la baralla d'obertura de la doble cartellera de SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING, El pes pesat invicte Joe Joyce va mantenir intacte el seu rècord de nocauts amb un nocaut tècnic a la sisena ronda de l'excampió del món de pes pesat Bermane Stiverne..



Després d'una primera volta emocionant, Joyce va obrir l'acció a la segona amb una dreta recta monstruosa i va descarregar de campana en campana contra un Stiverne indefens., que va continuar donant cops malgrat menjar trets perjudicials. Després d'una sèrie de combos al minut inicial del tercer, Joyce va atrapar Stiverne amb la mà dreta recta per enviar-lo a la lona per cinquena vegada en la seva carrera professional.. Stiverne va sobreviure a la ronda mentre llançava tirs en bucle, però no va tornar cap cop de puny significatiu.



Joyce, la 2016 Medalla de plata olímpica, establir constantment una potent recta just darrere d'un cop esquerre precís i efectiu durant tota la lluita. Amb Joyce (8-0, 8 KOs) continuant jugant contra un Stiverne en gran part indefens, l'àrbitre Howard Foster va intervenir per aturar el concurs a 2:26 del sisè. Stiverne (25-4-1, 21 KOs) no va protestar per l'aturada.



"Gran respecte a Stiverne, com un veritable campió, és molt dur i encara estava llançant tirs, però suposo que era una mica massa,", va dir Joyce. “Es tractava de tenir paciència. És un noi tan dur que va fer aquests trets sense cap problema.



"L'estava colpejant amb tot el que tenia, inclosa la pica de la cuina. Vaig escoltar l'Abel (Sánchez) a la cantonada, va fer tot el que va dir i va anar bé. El meu cop va ser realment efectiu. Sóc un veterinari experimentat. Vaig agafar el meu equilibri i em vaig mantenir tranquil al llarg del camí.



“Venen coses grans. El meu proper serà per a l'AMB Regular (Títol) i aviat tornaré al gimnàs. Necessito tenir un parell de baralles més com aquesta i després estaré preparat per als grans campions".



Durant l'emissió de dissabte es van presentar els aspectes més destacats del debut de l'excampió del món Lee Selby en pes lleuger. Un antic campió de pes ploma, Selby (27-2, 9 KOs) va superar un cop de cap accidental de la segona ronda per guanyar una decisió unànime de 12 rondes (116-112, 116-112, 115-114) sobre Omar Douglas (19-3, 13 KOs).



Aquesta nit/dissabte a les 10 p.m. ET / PT a SHOWTIME EXTREME, diumenge a les 9 a.m. ET/PT a SHOWTIME i dilluns a les 10 p.m. ET / PT a SHOWTIME EXTREME.



L'emissora veterà Brian Custer va acollir la doble capçalera des de Londres amb el versàtil periodista esportiu de combat Mauro Ranallo que va convocar l'acció al costat de l'analista del Saló de la Fama Al Bernstein.. Dos membres del Saló de la Fama van completar l'equip d'emissió d'avui: Emmy® el guardonat periodista Jim Gray i l'anunciador de rings de renom mundial Jimmy Lennon Jr. El productor executiu va ser David Dinkins Jr. amb Rick Phillips dirigint.

Això és el que van dir els combatents i els seus respectius campaments durant la roda de premsa de dijous a Intercontinental a The O2:



James DeGale:

"Vaig deixar el meu títol per a baralles com aquesta. Chris Eubank ha estat cridant el meu nom durant molt de temps i finalment tinc l'oportunitat de donar-li un cop de puny a la cara.



"No li tinc cap respecte. Cap. Aquest noi és un idiota diluït. I dissabte a la nit no puc esperar per tractar-lo. Vindré i li donaré com cal. No pot boxejar. Tots hem sentit això abans.



"Aquesta és la lluita més gran de la seva carrera. És temps de jubilació. Qui perdi aquesta lluita s'ha acabat. És fer o morir dissabte... La seva lluita per la jubilació és aquí. És la seva última baralla, Els prometo que.



"Estic provat. He estat allà, fet això. Ho he guanyat tot. No ha fet res. I el retiraré.



"Eubank és un lluitador dur, és fort. Té molts bons atributs, però sóc massa bo per a ell. Per barrejar-ho i anar al cim cal més que força i duresa. Cada vegada que ha augmentat, ell està perdut.



"La por de perdre és perquè sé què hi ha al joc. Això és fer o morir. Si no el puc vèncer, si no puc vèncer a Chris Eubank Jr., He acabat.



"Molta gent pensa que he vist dies millors. Molta gent pensa que estic en declivi. He tingut problemes en el passat, però sincerament puc dir que estic totalment en forma. Estic en la millor forma que he estat durant molt de temps, molt de temps, física i mentalment. Quan sento que no em pot vèncer ningú.



"Si no puc vèncer a Chris, vol dir que em disparen, això vol dir que estic al turó".



CHRIS EUBANK JR.:

"Aquest noi és un vagabund. Parla un bon joc. Ho passarà bé, però al final del dia seré massa per a ell.



"Tots dos estem en una etapa on no podem perdre. Tots dos estem lluitant per la nostra carrera. Ell sap que no em pot manejar. Es pregunta a si mateix, ‘Puc sobreviure?’ I la resposta és absolutament no.



"No hi ha res que pugui fer en aquest ring que jo no pugui gestionar. Vaig a encaixar-li el cap.



"Ara tinc un entrenador a temps complet. Per primera vegada en la meva carrera, Tinc un entrenador dia rere dia centrat en l'estratègia per preparar-me per al que és James: un zurdó astut. Per això estic tan confiat. Si vol córrer, tenim el pla de joc. Si vol estar dret i balancejar-se, tenim el pla de joc. Tenim un pla per a tot.



"El que importa és que la carrera de James s'acabi en pocs dies. Li vaig enviar un missatge després de perdre [George] Groves dient que ha de seguir el ritme perquè algun dia lluitarem. I ara que per fi som aquí, li miro als ulls i no veig cap tipus segur.



"És el meu moment. Espero el millor que ha estat mai i això encara no serà suficient.



"Sóc un lluitador a nivell mundial. Tothom en el joc de boxa ho sap. Aquesta és la meva oportunitat per demostrar-ho d'una vegada per totes per aclarir el rècord i demostrar que sóc el veritable negoci. Sé que aquesta és una lluita decisiva en la meva carrera. És fer o morir i estic preparat per a això.



"James sap el que ve. Al final de la dia, les seves últimes actuacions no han estat a l'alçada, però crec que no respectava la seva [passat] oponents. Em respecta, i el respecto i per això és una lluita real.



"He estat en el joc durant molt de temps, però això és només el començament d'un llarg viatge per a mi. Aquesta és la meva lluita més gran. He de guanyar. Si guanyo, Torno a l'escenari mundial. Vencer a James DeGale em prepara per a un títol mundial, que és la raó per la qual vaig començar en aquest joc".





JIM MCDONNELL:

"Hi ha nivells a la boxa. Chris era un bon prospecte, però no està al mateix nivell que James. Esbrinarà què cal per ser campió del món. James DeGale està a nivells per sobre de Chris Jr.



"Chris pot tenir tot l'empenta que necessita, però no té les habilitats per vèncer a James DeGale.



"Sé que James no està perdent. James DeGale és probablement el millor lluitador britànic que he vist al meu país".





CHRIS EUBANK SR.:

"He vist el cim de James i és embriagador. Amb Chris, no s'ha aplicat tot el que he dit. Potser s'ha sentit, però no aplicat. El que he dit funciona. no ho tindria 19 el campionat guanya si no ho fa.



“No estic convençut [Chris guanyarà] perquè James DeGale té pedigrí. Ser un [olímpic] Medalla d'or i antic campió del món és real. Respecto les habilitats de l'home. Junior no.



“El meu fill mira l'aspecte físic de la boxa i, des del punt de vista físic, No crec que hi hagi ningú que pugui estar amb ell. Però la boxa no és només física, també és espiritual, i aquí és on falta el Junior. No sé si ell té això.



“Això és un 50/50 lluitar i per primera vegada estic petrificat de quin pot ser el resultat. Estic petrificat que Junior no guanyi aquesta lluita.



"Aquesta és la saviesa d'algú que ha estat aquí. Mai subestimes el teu oponent en funció de les actuacions anteriors. Qualsevol que pensi que aquest tipus està en un tobogan a causa de les actuacions anteriors està cometent un error.



“Des d'un aspecte físic, Júnior té el avantatge. Des d'un vessant espiritual i pedigrí, En Jaume té el avantatge, i per això això és un 50/50 lluita.



"Sé que en Chris ha après i anem a veure què es produeix. Pot ser una lluita brillant".





Paulie Malignaggi:

"M'agraden les nostres oportunitats. Conec el noi amb qui he estat al campament. Les coses que he vist, m'agrada. Aquest cop són molt més positius.



"No pots subestimar un tipus com Eubank. Sempre ve a guanyar. Però, independentment del pla de joc, hi ha una certa mentalitat i el meu noi la té. És medalla d'or i sap quina mentalitat portar dissabte.



"James ha guanyat dos grans títols mundials, una medalla d'or olímpica. Chris ha tingut algunes bones victòries, però quan va arribar a aquest nivell d'elit, va perdre. Chris és un bon lluitador, però no ha superat aquest nivell d'oposició".

DeGale, de 33 anys, va ser el primer boxejador britànic a guanyar una medalla d'or als Jocs Olímpics i un campionat mundial com a professional.. Va guanyar el seu títol mundial amb una decisió unànime sobre Andre Dirrell 2015 i va fer dues defenses reeixides abans de lluitar per l'empat contra Badou Jack 2017. DeGale va venjar el seu desembre 2017 pèrdua davant Caleb Truax per recuperar el seu cinturó de pes súper mitjà de la FIB a l'abril 2018 per SHOWTIME. Després de desallotjar voluntàriament el cinturó, DeGale va aturar el veterà Fidel Muñoz la seva última vegada fora.

 

Eubank Jr., de 29 anys., fill de l'antic campió mundial de dues divisions Chris Eubank, està molt motivat per desafiar per més títols mundials després de perdre una decisió unànime davant George Groves pel cinturó de pes súper mitjà de l'AMB fa un any. La rivalitat entre DeGale i Eubank s'ha produït des de fa diversos anys després d'una sèrie d'enfrontaments. El duet s'ha enfrontat al gimnàs i ha intercanviat diverses cops verbals a les xarxes socials. Eubank, que ha estat entrenant a Las Vegas al Mayweather Boxing Club, ha guanyat nou dels seus últims deu baralles i ha registrat nocauts en vuit d'aquestes victòries.

 

La Joyce de 6 peus, de Londres, Anglaterra, ha començat la seva carrera professional amb un 100 percentatge de KO després de convertir-se en professional 2017 a l'edat de 32. Un aficionat consumat, Joyce va guanyar la medalla de plata de pes superpesat per a la Gran Bretanya al 2016 Jocs Olímpics. Joyce, que entrena a Big Bear, Califòrnia. sota el reconegut entrenador Abel Sánchez, va noquejar a Joe Hanks 2:25 de la primera ronda en la seva última lluita al Deontay Wilder vs. Cartell de Tyson Fury.

 

Stiverne (25-3-1, 21 KOs), que va ser el primer boxejador nascut a Haití a posseir una peça de la corona de pes pesat, va guanyar el títol del CMB amb un convincent TKO a la sisena ronda sobre Chris Arreola el 2014. Aleshores Stiverne va perdre el cinturó en la seva següent lluita contra Deontay Wilder, tot i convertir-se en el primer lluitador a endur-se la distància a l'actual campió nord-americà. L'home de 40 anys no ha lluitat des de la seva pèrdua a la 2017 revancha contra Wilder, però està ansiós per recuperar-se amb una victòria declarada sobre la molt apreciada Joyce.

JOYCE FACES ACID TEST AGAINST STIVERNE AT THE O2

Leave a comment


Undefeated British sensation Joe Joyce faces Former World Champion Bermane Stiverne

Defends Commonwealth title alongside return of Former World Champion Lee Selby on massive DeGale v Eubank Jr. targeta, LIVE on ITV Box Office

Fast rising star makes fearless move in just EIGHTH pro fight to fast track towards World Title

Stiverne says it will be Joyce’s nightmare when he gets knocked out

Legendary promoter Don King promises to ‘Re Joyce’ when Stiverne recreates McCall victory over Lewis in London

Londres(23 Gener 2019) Poxon Sports and PBC are delighted to announce that heavyweight sensation Joe Joyce will defend his Commonwealth title in the biggest test of his unbeaten career when he takes a gigantic leap up to confront the Former WBC World Champion Bermane Stiverne on Saturday 23rd February at The O2, exclusively live on ITV Box Office.

Joyce vs. Stiverne, promoted by Poxon Sports in association with Ringstar Sports and Don King Productions, will feature alongside the return of Former IBF World Featherweight Champion Lee Selby as one of the chief-supporting contests on an action-packed show, headlined with the thrilling all-British clash between fierce rivals James DeGale and Chris Eubank Jr.

The 6ft 6in ‘Juggernaut’ from Putney, South West London, has destroyed all seven of his opponents since turning professional in October 2017 after capturing the Silver medal at the Rio Olympics and has singled himself out as one of the most feared talents in the heavyweight division.

It’s a monumental test for Joyce to be facing a former World Champion in just his eighth fight, the rock-solid and sledge-hammer hitting Stiverne, born in Montreal, Canadà, of Haitian descent and based out of Las Vegas, has fought some of the biggest and best in the division, including Deontay Wilder and Chris Arreola.

The fight has added bad blood thrown in resulting from a sparring session between Joyce and Stiverne in which Joyce was angered by comments from Stiverne in an interview afterwards when he said he took Joyce to school.

Joyce said, “I had respect for Bermane Stiverne. We sparred in Las Vegas; he said he took me to school in an interview etc, it got ugly and it made this fight happen. I tried to be respectful of him, but he’s rude and was having none of it. He is a former World Champion that has gone 12 rounds with Deontay Wilder and will give me a real challenge; but my engine and my power will be too much for him, a fact he should be aware of!"

Joyce’s promoter Richard Schaefer, President i conseller delegat de RingStar Sports, dit, “After only seven fights Joe Joyce has become the number five ranked Heavyweight in the world. But the spectacular way in which he has won all of his seven fights by knockout have made him the number one fan favourite in the Heavyweight Division. Taking on the heavy-handed Former World Champion Stiverne shows that no challenge is too big for Joe as he continues to march towards the Heavyweight World Championship. Simply put: Joe Joyce has become must see TV, so make sure to tune in on February 23 or come and watch him live at the O2 in London!"

Stiverne DiRita, “I told my promoter Don King to get me any man on earth and I will fight for the right to prove myself to the world. Then the phone rings, it’s Don, he tells me Joe Joyce – a boxer with only seven bouts – agrees to meet me! ‘Seven bouts?’. Seven fights and he has the audacity to box me? I have stopped Chris Arreola, Ray Austin, the then undefeated Kerston Manswell – and a boxer with seven fights wants to box me?!.’ I said to Don ‘Sign it, take it, grab it,’ I’m ready. Seven fights – and he wants to box me? For me it is a dream come true – but for Joyce it will be a nightmare. I will knock out Joe Joyce and step over him to KO Anthony Joshua. I’m primed and ready. The real Bermane Stiverne will be there on February 23 and will knock out Joe Joyce en route to regaining my heavyweight crown.”

Stiverne’s legendary promoter Don King, addicional, “It is with my greatest pleasure that Don King Productions can announce our return to Jolly Old England – the ‘Cradle of Boxing” where my pugilistic giant – the Former Heavyweight Champion of the World Bermane Stiverne begins his comeback at the expense of the Giant Joe Joyce. Unfortunately, for the local fans of Joe there will no ‘re Joycing’ – as my once – and future champion Bermane Stiverne will slay Joyce just like St. George did the dragon of old. But no matter, we will pick up the pieces and bring back Joyce just as I have brought back and helped build many a future together. I recall when I came here with Oliver McCall and he was given no chance against Lennox Lewis. Then the underdog became the top dog when Oliver KO’d the previously unbeaten champ and we went home with the title. History will repeat itself of February 23 when Bermane sends another undefeated Englishman to defeat. Now retooled, resuscitated, renewed, rejuvenated and recommitted Bermane Stiverne will resurrect his career on February 23 when the ‘Lord of Ring” crushes the “Lord of the World” – ‘Juggernaut” Joyce on his inexorable march to regain the heavyweight championship of the world. Bless all British fans, God Save the Queen – but heaven help Joe Joyce! We will see you on February 23rd.”

WBC World Heavyweight Champion Deontay Wilder also put forward his thoughts on the intriguing match up, ell va dir, “Joe Joyce will be a good test for him (Stiverne). I’ve seen Joe Joyce before. Ell és un bon boxejador. Joe Joyce fought Joe Hanks on my undercard with Tyson Fury but I didn’t get a chance to see him fight that night. But I’m looking forward to seeing him against Stiverne.”

Richard Poxon, UK Promoter for PBC, dit, “I’ve known Joe from his amateur days up in Sheffield. His success at the Olympics didn’t surprise me at all. He’s transitioned well to the pros now and is clearly in a hurry. The heavyweight division is the one that everyone is looking at again and I fully expect Joe to be in the thick of the action in the coming year. Taking on a former WBC World Champion in only your eighth fight clearly shows what Joe’s ambitions are.”

Since embarking on his pro career in his quest to become World Heavyweight Champion, the quietly spoken Joyce has let his destructive fists do the talking in making bold statements to make the boxing world sit up and take notice of the fast-rising star.

A l'octubre 2017 he astounded critics when he choose to fight the hardened Former British title challenger Ian Lewison, who had just extended big-punching Dillian Whyte to ten rounds, for his pro-debut and pounded him down in eight rounds.

Then in only his fourth fight with only 12 rounds under his belt and inside seven months of turning pro, Joyce demolished the Commonwealth Heavyweight Champion Lenroy Thomas in just two rounds – setting a new record by heavyweight boxer to win the Commonwealth belt.

En la seva última baralla, American fights fans got a brief taster of what the British star is all about when he smashed through Joe Hanks in a round to win the WBA Continental title at the Staples Centre in Los Angeles in making his glittering U.S debut.

J

oyce, now ranked #5 in the world by the WBA and progressing quickly towards a World Title shot, faces unquestionably his sternest career test to date against the vastly experienced and equally big-hitting Las Vegas based Haitian who has knocked out 21 opponents of his 25 wins in his 29 lluitar carrera.

Stiverne formerly held the WBC crown for two years after defeating Chris Arreola on points in April 2013 to win the title and then in the rematch destroying him inside six rounds in the first defence of the title in May 2014.

The rock solid Stiverne then pushed the dynamite-punching Deontay Wilder the full twelve round distance in the next defence of his WBC World Heavyweight title clash in January 2015. Stiverne became the first man to take Wilder beyond who at that point had obliterated all his opponents inside four rounds. In the rematch nearly three years later, Stiverne stepped in at the last minute when Wilder’s original opponent Luis Ortiz failed a drugs test and due to his inactivity was stopped in a round.

Stiverne is now looking to return to the elite heavyweight mix and a victory over Joyce would propel him back into the limelight and on course towards a potential world title opportunity.

EDMONTON, Canadà– The postponed first-season finale of the World Boxing Super Series’ (WBSS) super middleweight division will take place this Friday (Set. 28), when World Boxing Association (AMB) super middleweight world champion “Sant” George Groves is challenged by undefeated fellow Brit, Callum “món” Herrero, to air live from Jeddah, Aràbia Saudita, a partir de 2 p.m. I / 11 a.m. PT, exclusively on Super Channel in Canada.

Groves vs. Herrero, presented by Sauerland Event, was postponed from its originally planned June 2 date due to Groves’ shoulder surgery from an injury he suffered in his February17º WBSS semifinals 12-round unanimous decision victory against Chris Eubank, Jr.

The 30-year-old Groves (28-3, 20 KOs), lluitant fora de Londres, knocked out defending WBA super middleweight champion Fedor Txudínov (14-1) in the sixth round of their May 27, 2017 baralla pel títol.

His first title defense was a fourth-round stoppage of Jaime Cox in the opening round of the WBSS, followed this past Feb. with his aforementioned win over Eubank (26-1). In addition to Chudinov, No. 1 -tournament seeded Groves has defeated world champions Glen Johnson i James DeGale, “It has been a long preparation for the fight. I am fit, I am healthy, I have put in the work.

“This will be the toughest test yet in the tournament, but I am boxing better than ever, and I don’t see Callum posing a threat, I expect another comfortable win. We are preparing for the very best Smith possible. We know what to do and I am capable of it, I just need to get it done.”

Herrero (24-0, 17 KOs), 28, won a 12-round unanimous decision from previously undefeated Erik Sjoglund (26-0) in the WBSS opening round. The Liverpool boxer whose three brothers are boxers was supposed to fight former WBA and WBO light heavyweight Juergen Braehmer in the WBSS semifinal round, but Braehmer pulled out and he was replaced late by unbeaten Nicky Holken (13-0), who Smith defeated by way of a 12-round unanimous decision.

“I am in a good place, feeling good,” WBC Diamond belt holder Smith commented. “I feel comfortable in winning. I just feel I am a better fighter than anyone he has fought in this tournament. I feel confident I will come out on top. The fans should be in for a treat, I am looking forward to becoming a world champion.”
