Maurice Hooker Scores Split-Decision Upset Victory Over Terry Flanagan For WBO 140-Pound World Championship Belt

LOS ANGELES (Xuño 9, 2018) – Former Unified Heavyweight World Champion Tyson Fury scored a fourth-round TKO over Sefer Seferi at Manchester Arena in Manchester, Inglaterra, on Saturday in a bout that was streamed live to U.S. audiences via SHOWTIME Sports social media platforms.

 

 

 

The 6-foot-9, 275-plus pound Fury, who outweighed Seferi by more than 65 pounds following Friday’s weigh-in, looked rusty in the scheduled 10-rounder, his first bout in more than 31 meses. Seferi sat on his stool after four completed rounds and did not answer the bell for round five.

 

 

 

Furia (26-0, 19 Kos) playfully bounced around for the first few rounds, and was even warned for a lack of activity in the second round against a severely undermanned Seferi (23-2, 21 Kos). Fury is likely to face a tougher opponent in his next fight set for September in a division currently ruled by world title holders Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder.

 

 

 

Fury’s return to the ring came after 924 days of inactivity due to bouts of depression and admitted drug use following an upset victory over Wladimir Klitschko to take Klitschko’s WBA, IBF and WBO world titles.

 

 

 

In a fight that preceded Fury-Seferi, undefeated American Maurice Hooker won a split-decision upset victory over hometown favorite Terry Flanagan to capture the vacant WBO Junior Welterweight World Championship belt. Os correas foron 117-111, 115-113 for Hooker, e 117-111 for Flanagan.

 

 

 

With blood streaming down his face, the former lightweight title holder Flanagan (33-1, 13 Kos), who suffered a deep cut on the forehead after an accidental head butt in the seventh round, couldn’t overcome the aggressive Hooker (24-0-3, 16 Kos), who just like training partner Errol Spence Jr., had to travel overseas to win his first world title.

 

 

 

Hooker, a 28-years-old Dallas native, was fighting for the first time outside of the United States against Flanagan, who was a 135-pound champion for three years with five defenses before moving up to the 140-pound class.

 

 

 

Coa vitoria, Hooker became the 76th ShoBox: A Nova Xeración alum to win a world title, joining the likes of Spence and Wilder.

 

 

 

Boxing broadcaster Ray Flores and analyst Chris Mannix delivered pre and post-fight analysis from STAPLES Center in Los Angeles for the SHOWTIME Sports audience.

 

 

 

Later on Saturday night, WBA Super Featherweight World Champion Leo Santa Cruz will rematch former three-division world champion Abner Mares en Showtime Championship Boxing® (10 p.m. ET/PT delayed on the West Coast) from Staples Center in Los Angeles. Na apertura da transmisión, Houston’s Jermell Charlo will defend his WBC Super Welterweight World Title against former world champion Austin Trout.

"Estou seguro. Son máis forte e son máis grande, encaixador."

"Imos facer un bo espectáculo o sábado pola noite. Está en boa forma, e estou en boa forma. Podemos ir 12 roldas moi duras, ou pode ser unha noite cedo para Terry.

 

 

 

"Estou de volta agora e mellor que nunca. Estou preparado para mostrarlle ao mundo enteiro quen son. Antes desa pelexa con Darleys Pérez, todo o mundo tiña medo de loitar contra min. Sigo sendo ese monstro, Eu aínda son ese can. Veña o sábado pola noite, Vou darlle un puñetazo na boca e pode que noqueo na primeira volta".

 

 

 

"Veña o sábado pola noite, Rezo por el, porque me refiro aos negocios cando entro nese ring".

MANCHESTER, Reino Unido (Xuño 6, 2018) – Former Unified Heavyweight World Champion Tyson Fury took one more step toward ending his 31-month exile from the sport as he met face-to-face with Expedición Expedición at the final press conference Wednesday at the Midland Hotel in Manchester.

 

SHOWTIME Sports will live stream the long-awaited return of Fury (25-0, 18 Kos), a former WBA, WBO and IBF Heavyweight World Champion, este Sábado, Xuño 9 from Manchester Arena when he faces Expedición Expedición in a 10-round heavyweight bout from Manchester Arena. O Showtime Boxing INTERNATIONAL® social media offering will stream live exclusively to U.S. audiencias na Páxina de Facebook de SHOWTIME Boxing e canle de YouTube de SHOWTIME Sports a partir das 4:30 p.m. E/1:30 p.m. PT.

 

Here’s what Fury had to say on Wednesday:

 

If he has knocked out 21 men before, if he gets it on my chin he will knock me out too.

 

I look at Sefer like I look at Wladimir Klitschko, Deontay Wilder, Anthony Joshua, anybody. He’s a dangerous puncher.

 

I could have picked someone a lot easier than Sefer; someone to knock out in a round. But I need rounds.”

 

On his Heavyweight rivals:They know the message – I’m back. I don’t ever remember feeling any better than I do now.

 

I feel sharper now, máis poder. I fell out of love with the game but now the love is thriving, we are back on fire for one another.

 

You’re going to be the best Tyson Fury you have ever seen.”

 

There are no nerves at all. I feel like I have been a goldfish in a tank, trapped and now I am getting released back into the river where I belong. So just put me there and watch me swim.

 

“I don’t ever remember feeling any better than I do now. I feel shaper now, faster than I’ve ever been, máis poder, I just want it more.

 

“It was a lost relationship, it was like I was married to the game too long and we sort of fell out of love with each other.”

 

In the opening bout of the live stream, o heroe local Terry Flanagan (33-0, 13 KO) will look to become a two-division world champion when he clashes with unbeaten American Maurice Hooker (23-0-3, 16 KO) for the vacant WBO Super Lightweight crown. This will be the third live streaming boxing event this year on SHOWTIME Sports social media platforms.

 

Live coverage for the Frank Warren promoted event will be provided by BT Sport with U.K. locutores deportivos John Rawlingproporcionando o golpe a golpe e Richie Woodhall a análise. Emisora ​​de boxeo Ray Flores e analista Chris Mannix will deliver pre and post-fight analysis from Staples Center in Los Angeles for the SHOWTIME Sports audience.

EDMONTON, Canadá (Xuño 5, 2018)Canadian boxing fans will have the opportunity to watch the long-awaited return of theGypsy King,undefeated former unified heavyweight world champion Tyson Fury este sábado contra Sefer “The Real Deal” Seferi no evento de 10 rolda principal, airing in Canada exclusively on Super Channel, live from Manchester Arena in Manchester, Reino Unido.
Está de volta: Furia vs. Seferi, presentado por Frank Warren's Queensbury Promotions, emitirase exclusivamente en Super Channel en todo Canadá, a partir de 2:00 p.m. E / 11:00 a.m. PT.
We couldn’t be more excited to be bringing this highly anticipated bout marking the return of Tyson Fury to the boxing world, to our viewers,” dixo Don McDonald, Presidente e CEO, super Canle. “This is exactly the type of exclusive content that Canadian boxing fans have come to expect from Super Channel Sports and is a welcome addition to our growing catalogue of marquee boxing events.
Perhaps boxing’s most polarizing figure, Furia (25-0, 15 Kos) has been sidelined with mental health issues for the past 2 Anos e medio, after shocking the boxing world November 28, 2015, when he defeated future Hall of Famer Wladimir Klitschko (64-3, 53 Kos) por medio dunha decisión unánime de 10 (116-111, 115-112, 115-112).
A 6′ 9″ Fury became the undisputed world heavyweight champion, securing the IBF, WBA, WBO, IBO and The Ring campionatos, only to be stripped and/or relinquish his title belts without a single defense.
(L-R) – Na súa última loita, Tyson Fury upset Wladimir Klitschko
Canadian boxing fans are more than familiar with Fury, who held his extended training camp in Canada, at Hotel Lac Leamy in Gatineau, prior to his April 20, 2013 fight at famed Madison Square Garden in New York City, in which he stopped multiple world champion Steve Cunningham in the seventh round.
I can’t wait to get in there and prove that I’m a better fighter than I’ve ever been,” the charismatic Fury said. “I’m coming into the prime of my career now and I’ve never felt better. I’m fitter, stronger and faster than the Fury of 2015.
It’s going to be a huge night for the City of Manchester (where Fury was born). I’m delighted to be fighting at the iconic Manchester Arena for the first time in my career. I’m promising the fans a special performance to thank them for their loyal support.
Seferi, fighting out of Albania, has suffered only one loss during his otherwise perfect 11-year pro boxing career, losing a 10-round decision in 2016 to future WBA heavyweight world champion Manuel Carr (29-4) for the vacant WBA International crown.
This is going to be a hard fight for Fury,” Seferi predicted. “I’m very disciplined and always ready to take on everyone and anyone. This will not be an easy night for him. I’m coming to Manchester to beat one of the boxing legends of the 21st century.
He is tall and strong, but he won’t be ready for the pressure that I will bring. Two-and-one-half years out of the ring is a long time and nobody knows if he is still the same fighter that dethroned Wladimir Klitschko. I am going to seize the opportunity with both hands.
The 12-round co-feature features local hero, undefeated Brit Terry “Turbo” Flanagan (33-0, 13 Kos), in his bid to become a two-division world champion, versus unbeaten American Maurice “Mighty Mo” Hooker (23-0-3, 16 Kos) for the vacant WBO super-lightweight world title.
Three other exciting fights on the “Está de volta: Furia vs. Seferi” tarxeta, in addition to the previously mentioned main event and co-feature, emitirase en Canadá exclusivamente en Super Channel.

SHOWTIME SPORTS® TO LIVE STREAM THE LONG-AWAITED RETURN OF FORMER HEAVYWEIGHT WORLD CHAMPION TYSON FURY ON SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS

 

Fury To Face Sefer Seferi; Terry Flanagan To Face Maurice Hooker For Vacant 140-Pound World Title

Sábado, Xuño 9 Live on SHOWTIME Sports YouTube Channel and SHOWTIME Boxing Facebook Page

 

Nova York (Xuño 4, 2018) – SHOWTIME Sports has secured the U.S. rights to stream the long-awaited return of former heavyweight world champion Tyson Fury, que afrontará Expedición Expedición in a 10-round heavyweight bout Saturday, Xuño 9 de Manchester Arena. Showtime Boxing INTERNATIONAL® will stream live exclusively to U.S. audiences on the SHOWTIME Boxing Facebook page and SHOWTIME Sports YouTube Channel beginning at 4:30 p.m. E/1:30 p.m. PT.

 

 

 

Na loita de apertura, o heroe local Terry Flanagan (33-0, 13 KO) will look to become a two-division world champion when he clashes with unbeaten American Maurice Hooker (23-0-3, 16 KO) for the vacant WBO Junior Welterweight crown. This will be the fourth live streaming boxing event this year on SHOWTIME Sports social media platforms.

 

 

 

Live coverage for the Frank Warren promoted event will be provided by BT Sport and BoxNation with U.K. locutores deportivos John Rawling proporcionando o golpe a golpe e Richie Woodhall a análise. Emisora ​​de boxeo Ray Flores e analista Chris Mannix will deliver pre-fight and post-fight analysis from Staples Center in Los Angeles for the SHOWTIME Sports audience.

 

 

 

A transmisión en directo de Fury vs. Seferi precederá ao SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP DE BOXEO desa noite® doubleheader that features WBA Featherweight World Champion Leo Santa Cruz in a rematch against fellow three-division world champion Abner Mares live on SHOWTIME (10 p.m. ET / ES, atrasada na costa oeste) do Staples Center. Na co-metragem, Jermell Charlo enfrontarase a Austin Trout polo Campionato Mundial de peso superwelter do CMB.

 

 

 

Furia (25-0, 18 Kos), a former WBA, WBO and IBF Heavyweight World Champion will end a two-years-and-seven-months exile from the sport on June 9. Fury has been inactive since outpointing Wladimir Klitschko in Dusseldorf in November 2015 due to an injury, personal problems and a doping ban.

 

 

 

“I’m the fittest I’ve ever been,", dixo Fury, who has teamed up with new trainer Ben Davison. “Timing, reflexes, everything is better than it’s ever been. I kid you not. Eu son 29 anos, coming into the prime of my life, I’m stronger and faster, holding more muscle mass than ever. I’m more confident looking at the competition.”

 

 

 

Albania’s Seferi (23-1, 21 Kos) is a 39-year-old Switzerland-based cruiserweight who is stepping up in weight and opposition when he faces the 6-foot-9 Fury. Seferi’s sole loss came in 2016 in a heavyweight bout against now-secondary WBA heavyweight champ Manuel Charr.

 

 

 

“This is going to be a hard fight for Fury,” said Seferi. “Two-and-a-half years out of the ring is a long time and nobody knows if he is still the same fighter that dethroned Wladimir Klitschko.”

 

 

 

Flanagan, the first Englishman to earn a lightweight world title, will seek to capture a title in a second weight class just days away from his 29th aniversario. Hooker, a southpaw from Dallas, Texas and ShoBox alum, has been training with Terence Crawford. Hooker will look to follow in the footsteps of fellow Dallas resident Errol Spence Jr., who went to Kell Brook’s hometown of Sheffield, England to capture his first world championship.
