BROOKLYN (Maio 19, 2019) – WBC World Heavyweight Champion Deontay “A Bomber Bronce” Wilder delivered the 40th knockout of his career in devastating fashion Saturday night, sending mandatory challenger Dominic “Dificultade” Breazealeflat on his back with a trademark right hand in front of a raucous crowd at Barclays Center, a casa do BROOKLYN BOXING™, nun evento presentado por Premier Boxing Champions. Successfully defending his belt for the ninth time, Wilder joins illustrious company alongside Hall of Famers Joe Louis, Muhammad Ali, Mike Tyson and more and becomes the 10th fighter in history to make nine or more consecutive successful heavyweight title defenses. Watch HERE: https://s.sho.com/2Hp0AEh

In the buildup to tonight’s world championship bout, Wilder (41-0-1, 40 Kos) repeatedly promised that the fight would not last long. The towering Tuscaloosa, Á. native kept his word, scoring the 20th first round knockout of his career and his 15th knockdown as heavyweight world champion. Breazeale (20-2, 18 Kos) was able to withstand Wilder’s first early onslaught, but could not beat referee Harvey Dock’s 10-count when Wilder connected flush with the most dangerous right hand in boxing later in the opening round.

Everything just came out of me tonight”, Dixo Wilder. “I know it’s been a big buildup, there’s been a lot of animosity and a lot of words that were said and it just came out of me tonight. That’s what makes boxing so great.

I just told Breazeale I love him and of course I want to see him go home to his family. I know we say some things, but when you can fight a man and then you can hug him and kiss him, I wish the world was like that. We shake hands and we live to see another day and that’s what it’s all about.

As the attention of the heavyweight division turns to what’s next, Wilder insists that a fight with Tyson Fury, the only man he has faced and not defeated, or Anthony Joshua remains on the table and in the works.

I understand what Fury did,” Dixo Wilder. “When you get dropped on the canvas like that I understand you have to get yourself back together. But the rematch will happen, like all these other fights will happen. The great thing is all these fights rare in discussion. The big fights will happen. I just want you to have patience.

Breazeale, whose only two defeats have now come against both Wilder and Joshua, was disappointed he wasn’t allowed to continue the fight.

I think the ref stopped it a little early because I could hear him saying seven and eight, but that’s boxing,” Dixo Breazeale. “He did his job and kept us safe for our next fight.

I got on my feet and had my legs under me. It’s the heavyweight division so there’s going to big shots from guys with power. This was a situation where he landed the big right hand before I did. I thought I was going to come on in the later rounds. I’ll be back and go for the heavyweight title again.

Na co-metragem, WBC Pena Campión do Mundo Gary Russell Jr. (30-1, 18 Kos) put on yet another professional display to defend his belt for the fourth time against a valiant Kiko Martínez (39-9-2, 28 Kos). Due to a gash that opened up over Martinez’s left eye, referee Ricky Gonzalez stopped the fight in the fifth round upon the advice of the ringside physician, resulting in a technical knockout.

Russell, who was fighting for the first time in a year, showed no signs of ring rust and displayed his full skillset including his trademark lightning quick hands. The 30-year-old Capitol Heights, Md. native was dominant from the opening bell and landed on a remarkable 40% dos seus golpes de enerxía. In an all-action fight with little downtime, Martinez did more than enough to play his part. The Spaniard constantly came forward but Russell continued to target the cut that opened up over his eye after a right hook in the second round. The ringside official called for the stoppage of the fight at 2:52 of round number five.

I did pretty good,” dixo o 2008 U.S. Olympian Russell to SHOWTIME ringside reporter Jim Gray. “We stayed behind the jab and he couldn’t get past it. We knew that intellect over athleticism would get it done.

We want [WBA campión dos penas] Leo Santa Cruz,” Russell continued while wearing a shirt that read ‘Leo Next’. “We want to make this fight happen. The fire is all the way hot on this side of the field. You will get burned. I would love for that fight to happen this year. Let’s make it happen.

It was a good stoppage for a very tough fight,” said the former world champion Martinez. “I’m definitely a visual fighter so the cut made it tough. Gary was in great physical condition and it was a very hard fight.

I’m going to rest a little bit now, but I’ll be back. I thought I had some good moments and had a good division. I think I’ll drop back down to 122-pounds to win a world title there.

Na apertura da transmisión, invicto perspectiva Juan Heraldez (16-0-1, 10 Kos) e ex-campión do mundo Argenis Mendez (25-5-2, 12 Kos) fought to a highly competitive majority draw. Two judges scored the fight 95-95, while a third had Mendez winning 97-93.

Fighting in front of his mentor Floyd Mayweather, Las Vegas’ Heraldez controlled many of the early rounds by setting the pace and establishing his jab. Heraldez outlanded Mendez 126-108 in total punches and 70-30 in jabs throughout the 10 rounds. Falling behind early, Mendez, a seasoned veteran and 2004 Dominican Republic Olympian, used his experience to grow back into the fight. The tempo picked up in the fifth round, as both fighters landed several heavy blows but the momentum shifted towards Mendez. The 32-year-old Mendez, who has fought seven current or former champions, closed out the fight exceptionally strong, winning the final round on all three judges’ scorecards. Without doing so, Mendez would have lost the fight.


“Pensei que gañaba a loita,” said a disappointed Mendez. “He didn’t do anything to me. How did he win the fight? If I have to prove I beat him in a rematch, I’ll be ready. I won’t leave it up to the judges.


My speed and my power made it difficult for him. I thought my counterpunching was really good. He tired toward the later rounds and that let me get a little closer to him to get my offense going.

Similarmente, Heraldez thought he did enough to win the fight which he viewed as a potential coming out party.

I thought I won a close decision,” Heraldez said. “I didn’t think it was a draw. He didn’t do anything that hurt me at any point.

He wasn’t really engaging with me. He was just trying to move around and pick his shots, but it wasn’t anything I wasn’t ready for. I’ll either take the rematch with Mendez or move forward toward my goal of a world title.

Preceding the telecast, SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING COUNTDOWN featured three undercard attractions streamed live on the SHOWTIME Sports social platforms. A battle between heavyweights Robert Alfonso (18-0-1, 8 Kos) e Iago Kiladze (26-4-1, 18 Kos) ended in a split-draw after eight rounds of action. While one judge scored the fight 77-75 for Alfonso, another had it 77-75 para Kiladze, with the third judge scoring it 76-76, resulting in the draw.

Also entering the ring was 2016 U.S. Olímpico Gary Antuanne Russell (9-0, 9 Kos), the younger brother of the featherweight champion Gary Russell Jr., que caeuMarcos Mojica (16-4-2, 12 Kos) twice to earn a stoppage 2:13 para a terceira rolda. Rounding out the action was Brooklyn-native and 2016 Haití olímpico Richardson Hitchins (9-0, 5 Kos), who scored a TKO of Alejandro Munera (4-2-3, 4 Kos) after Munera was knocked down in round three and unable to continue despite making it to the final bell of the round.

Grupo descontos están dispoñibles por teléfono 844-BKLYN-GP. The Heraldez vs. Mendez fight is co-promoted with Mayweather Promotions.

Here is what the press conference participants had to say Thursday from Barclays Center:

Deontay WILDER

These fighters always get into great shape and think they have the game plan to beat me. They think they’re going to catch me. It’s not going to work. Nothing this guy has prepared for is going to work.

I hope he brings the best he can bring. This is more than just a boxing match. I’m passionate about what I do. This has been a long time coming for me and Dominic. He asked for this, and he shall receive.

It’s going to be an amazing night for me, and a sad night for him. Being heavyweight champion is a big responsibility. Not everyone is made to be a champion. It’s more than being glamorous or carrying around this prestigious belt.

I’ve trained harder than I’ve ever trained. He’s got me inspired like I was against Bermane Stiverne. I want to hurt Breazeale so bad. I’m going to keep my composure until that time comes Saturday night.

I don’t believe Breazeale when he speaks. I’ve been in this game for a very long time. Someone like him is not going to beat me. The closest he’s going to get to this belt is in his dreams.

My whole team has been with me since day one. We started together and we’re going to go all the way together. It’s been an amazing run for me. I started my career at the very bottom and worked all the way to this point.

We never rushed anything. Even in the Olympics, I was still learning on the job. We trained to be a long term champion, not a short term champion, and we accomplished that. I’m appreciative for how far I’ve come and for everything that’s come with it. Hard work pays off.

My actions are going to speak louder than my words. I am the best. I am the chosen one. Pode dicir o que quere. It’s going to be a great fight for as long as it lasts. I’m going to bring the pain. Sábado á noite, everyone is in for a treat.

Dominic Breazeale

“Estou super animado para esta loita. Virgil Hunter and myself had a great camp. It was truly one of the best of my life. I’m mentally focused and physically right.

I’m excited to be back and get another knockout win. Getting that WBC belt is everything to me. This is my Super Bowl.

Victory for me on Saturday is everything. Wilder doesn’t know what he’s getting himself into. He’s in for a fight. He better be confident in his abilities, because Saturday night, he’s going to be in the toughest fight of his life.

I’m going to beat Deontay so bad that he’s not going to ever want to lace up the gloves again. Sports are 80% mental. When I’m done with him, the mental aspect is going to be beat out of him.

I’m going to put on another explosive performance. I’ve been dreaming for the last year about hearing ‘and the new.It’s a beautiful thing and I can’t wait to make it come true and have my hand raised.

Wilder hasn’t developed at all during his career. He looks the same as he did in the amateurs. He needs to talk himself up to make himself feel confident.

I’m too mentally in-tune to be focused on what someone says. When I go into a fight I don’t worry about what my opponent can do, but about what I want to do and how I can execute.

None of Deontay’s words affect me at all. He’s going to keep barking and I’m just going to keep waiting. I’m going to quiet him down on Saturday night.

GARY RUSSELL JR.

I’m hungry and ready. Anyone that I step in the ring with is standing in the way of my goals. Anyone trying to stop me, is in a dangerous position.

We’re going to try to control the pace of the fight with my jab. I don’t think he’s going to get past the jab. He’s going to try to get rough and physical. My plan is to make the adjustments that I need to get this win.

It’s always a family affair with the Russells. We move as a unit and we excel as a unit. My family is where I pull all my energy from. It’s never a distraction. They give me the fuel I need.

In boxing you need to have full trust and belief in your coach. I couldn’t imagine a better fit than having my dad. Even if he gives instructions that might not be 100% right in my eyes, I know that it’s going to be the best thing for me.

No one in this division wants to step in the ring with me. They know the speed and power and abilities that I bring every time I step into the ring.

Deontay and I were on the same Olympic team, plus Dominic and my little brother Gary Antuanne Russell were also U.S. Olympians. It makes for an amazing card on Saturday night.

KIKO MARTINEZ

I come to fight and get that title. I had a very smooth training camp and feel 100 percent physically.

I think my experience is superior. He thinks I’m only a pressure fighter, but he hasn’t seen me box the way I’m going to box him on Saturday.

This is the biggest opportunity of my life. To be on this platform and be able to fight for the championship is very special. I’m going to make the most of it.

I hope that Russell doesn’t take me lightly because I still have a lot of abilities left. It’s going to be a great fight for as long as it lasts.

JUAN HERALDEZ

Camp went great and I can’t wait to put on a show. I’m going to let everyone in this division know that I’m coming for them. I’m going to seize the moment and take full advantage of it.

I feel strong and I’m ready to fight. I’m just counting down the minutes until I can step into the ring. It’s a lot of excitement and I’m going to let it all out Saturday.

I plan to win in spectacular fashion on Saturday. I’m going to show everyone that I’m a player at 140-pounds and I’m ready for anyone they can put in front of me.

I’m not planning to get hit. I’m going to out box him and stick and move. He’s not going to be able to touch me. If the opportunity for a knockout comes, I’ll take it.

Argenis Mendez

“Estou moi animado por esta oportunidade. I had a great training camp and on Saturday night you’re going to see a show at Barclays Center.

I love boxing and I love this opportunity that I have on Saturday night. I’m going to show my passion for the sport during this fight. I feel great physically and just cannot wait to get into the ring.

A win on Saturday night opens the door for me. People are going to start seeing me as one of the best fighters from the Dominican Republic.

“Vai ser unha loita boa. I have the speed and skills to out box him. We’re both very smart fighters. I believe I’m the better fighter and it will show on Saturday night.

STEPHEN Espinoza, President Sports and Event Programming, Showtime Networks Inc.

The heavyweight division is exciting again and a lot of that has to do with Deontay Wilder. It’s also been helped by SHOWTIME and our commitment to the division. No other network has been more committed or invested more in the heavyweights than SHOWTIME has and we’re proud of that.

We’re also proud that several of the fighters on this card have fought frequently on SHOWTIME. Deontay will make his 12th appearance and Gary will make his 11th. Wilder, Russell and Dominic all launched their careers on ShoBox, like so many other great fighters.

When you get two guys together for a long-awaited grudge match, there’s not a lot that needs to be said. Deontay is the longest-reigning heavyweight champion in the sport. This would be the ninth defense for him, which is something that only nine other heavyweights have done in boxing history.

Deonay had two of the most exciting heavyweight fights in recent history last year. As for Dominic, he’s a big strong experienced guy who’s been on the world stage before. He has fought for a world title and he’s coming off of three consecutive wins. He has plenty of power and we saw that in his last fight against Carlos Negron that he can change the fight in one punch.

Brett Yormark, CEO de BSE Global

The heavyweight division has been the talk of the sports world for months, and it’s fitting that the world champion will defend his title right here in Brooklyn in one of the biggest fights in the sport this year.

“Deontay, I’ve said for a long time that this is your home away from home and we can’t wait to have you back. You have a big opponent this week in Dominic Breazeale. Dominic you’ve already made two appearances in our ring and we know the fans are looking forward to another great show.

In an event taking place live on SHOWTIME from Barclays Center, a casa do BROOKLYN BOXING™, Wilder will attempt to defend his WBC title for the ninth time since first capturing the belt in January 2015. Wilder’s triumph marked the return of heavyweight prizefighting in America and the end of an eight-year drought without an American heavyweight world champion, the longest in the history of the sport.

There has been a long line of great American heavyweight champions who represented our country with pride, strength and honor in the ring,” Dixo Wilder. “I take the responsibility very seriously to pick up where they left off and continue to show every young fighter who looks up to me, that they one day can be the heavyweight champion of the world.

I’m a champion of the world, but I represent for the entire country and everyone in it,” Dixo Wilder. “I’ve fought challengers from all around the world, knowing in my mind how important it was to keep this title in the U.S.

If successful on May 18, Wilder will become just the 10th fighter in the more than 135-year history of heavyweight boxing to make nine or more consecutive successful heavyweight title defenses. Wilder would join an impressive list of Hall of Famers who dominated the sport during their reignTommy Burns, Joe Louis, Joe Frazier, Muhammad Ali, Larry Holmes, Mike Tyson, Lennox Lewis, Vitali Klitschko and future Hall of Famer Wladimir Klitschko. *Nota: number of title defenses listed beloen


Fighters like Jack Johnson, Joe Louis, Muhammad Ali, Mike Tyson and more have paved the way for me,” Dixo Wilder. “Now I’m going to take what they started and make sure that the heavyweight world championship stays in America for a long time.

Wilder’s successes in the ring have seen him skyrocket toward the kind of recognition that heavyweight champions have garnered throughout history. En 2018 he was ranked 34 on ESPN’sWorld Fame 100” lista, the top spot of any boxer in the world.

Being the heavyweight champion and holding that title on the American sports landscape is a huge deal,” Dixo Wilder. “There was a time where that person was as well-known as the president. I’m going to keep leaving a path of destruction inside the ring, so that everyone knows I am the one name and one face of the heavyweight division.

List of fighters with nine consecutive heavyweight title defenses (listed chronologically):
1.) Tommy Burns (11)
2.) Joe Louis (25)
3.) Joe Frazier (nove)
4.) Muhammad Ali (nine in first run, 10 in second reign)

LAS VEGAS (Maio 2, 2019) – Unbeaten super lightweight contender Juan Heraldez is looking to make a statement when he takes on former world champion Argenis Mendezin a 10-round showdown Saturday, Maio 18 vivir na canle Showtime do Barclays Center, a casa do BROOKLYN BOXING™, e presentado por Premier Boxeo League.

I have to outclass him and make him not even want to fight anymore,” dixo Heráldez. “I’m going to make him retire. My goal on fight night is to win and show out for my Mexican fans in New York.

Heraldez, who trains out of the Mayweather Boxing Club in Las Vegas with coach Otis Pimpleton, made his 2019 debut in February by knocking out Eddie Ramirez in round seven of their super lightweight fight. Mendez is another step up in competition for the 28-year-old.

On paper he’s the toughest fighter I’ve faced,” dixo Heráldez. “I only watched some of his fight against Ramirez, but being a former world champion, it means he’s doing something right. I don’t think he does anything better than me and I’m looking to show it on fight night.

This will be Heraldez’s first fight on SHOWTIME, giving him a chance to shine on a big stage leading up to the Deontay Wilder heavyweight world title defense against Dominic Breazeale in the main event. For Heraldez, he sees this is an opportunity to display what he’s already being doing in the ring for years.

I’m excited to be able to show off what I’ve always been able to do,” dixo Heráldez. “It’s going to be no surprise to the people around me who know what I’m capable of. It’s another stage with more people watching, but the ring and everything else stays the same.

A fight like this adds more motivation for my future because I want to keep changing the lives of my family. Little by little, win by win and fight by fight, I can accomplish that. That’s where my motivation comes from.

A Las Vegas-native who is promoted by Mayweather Promotions, Heraldez believes he’s ready for a world title shot and knows that Argenis Mendez is currently in his path to getting that coveted opportunity.

If the title fight is there after I beat Mendez, estou levando,” dixo Heráldez. “That’s one of the ultimate goals and something I’ve been preparing for my whole career. I’m going to keep training hard like I always do to be at my best against Mendez. I’m going to have a great performance May 18 and they won’t be able to deny my place in this division.

Tickets for this BombZquad event can be purchased at ticketmaster.comebarclayscenter.com. Tickets also can be purchased at the American Express Box Office at Barclays Center.

He won a super bantamweight world title in 2013 by stopping Jhonatan Romero and has faced the likes of Leo Santa Cruz, Carl Frampton, Josh Warrington and Scott Quigg. The 33-year-old is unbeaten in his last four contests, including most recently defeating Marc Vidal for a European featherweight title in October.
 
I’ve been waiting for this opportunity to win another world title and I’m thankful and excited for May 18,” , Dixo Martínez. “Gary Russell Jr is in for a rude awakening. I have a lot of experience and I feel great at featherweight. There will be nothing better than celebrating my 50th fight with a new world title.
 
The undefeated Heraldez(16-0, 10 Kos) continued to rise up the rankings in 2019 when he knocked out Eddie Ramirez in their February showdown. The 28-year-old from Las Vegas earned a decision victory over Kevin Watts and a stoppage of Maynard Allison in 2018. That followed up a unanimous decision victory over then unbeaten prospect Jose Miguel Borrego in his first 10-round bout in August 2017 on the Mayweather vs. McGregor undercard.
 
I’m one of the best super lightweights in the world and I’m going to show it again on May 18,” dixo Heráldez. “They keep lining them up and I’ll keep knocking them down. Mendez is good, veteran opposition, but I’m going to show I’m on a different level. This is a great opportunity to once again perform on a big stage and I’m going to take full advantage and steal the show.
 
Mendez (25-5-2, 12 Kos) most recently fought to a competitive split-draw against Anthony Peterson in March, running his unbeaten streak up to three fights. The 32-year-old defeated Eddie Ramirez and Ivan Redkach in back-to-back fights after losses to Robert Easter Jr. and Luke Campbell. Originally from San Juan de la Maguana, Dominican Republic and now living in Brooklyn, N.I., Mendez won the IBF super featherweight title with a knockout victory over Juan Carlos Salgado in 2013.
 
This fight is do or die for me to become champion again,” said Mendez. “Anthony Peterson ran from me in our fight in March, so if Heraldez does that on May 18, I will be better prepared. If he stands and fights with me, I feel strongly that I will dominate him and make a statement to everyone that I’m an elite 140-pound fighter.

BROOKLYN (Marzo 19, 2019) – WBC Heavyweight Champion Deontay “A Bomber Bronce” Wilder and mandatory challenger Dominic “Dificultade” Breazeale went face-to-face Tuesday at a heated press conference to officially announce their heavyweight title showdown taking place Saturday, Maio 18 vivir na canle Showtime do Barclays Center, a casa de BROOKLYN boxeo ™ e presentado por Premier Boxeo League.

Tickets for this BombZquad event go on sale Friday, Marzo 22 en 10 a.m. ET and can be purchased at ticketmaster.com, barclayscenter.com, ou por teléfono 800-745-3000. Desde sábado, Marzo 23 en 12 p.m. E, tickets can be purchased at the American Express Box Office at Barclays Center. Grupo descontos están dispoñibles por teléfono 844-BKLYN-GP.

Here is what the press conference participants had to say Tuesday from Barclays Center:

Deontay WILDER

It’s a pleasure to be back here in Brooklyn. Barclays Center is very close to my heart. I’ve been here so many times and I have a real connection to this arena. I’ve had some of my most memorable moments in the ring here.

It’s always great to get a mandatory out of the way. They’re like flies buzzing in my ear. I just want to get them out of the way so I can do great things for the heavyweight division. I want one champion, one face, one name, but you need a lot of cooperation to make that happen.

I want to prove to the world that I’m the best. That’s what I believe in my heart. Until someone proves me wrong, I will continue to believe that. Breazeale is the next man in line. I can’t wait for this one.

I’m just going to show everyone on May 18. The way I feel right now, the fight could be this week. The champion must always be ready for whatever a challenger can bring.

I hope he’s training his hardest. I’m glad he has Virgil Hunter on his side to show him something new. Every man I’ve faced; they’ve landed on the canvas. I’m going to continue to do that on May 18.

No man who gets in the ring will be able to defeat Deontay Wilder. I hold the keys to the heavyweight division. No fighter is doing what I’m doing. I’m trying to give the fans something they’ve never seen before.

Enjoy this one, because it’s going to be a massacre. Maio 18 will be a beautiful day for me and a beautiful day to see what I’m planning to do for the sport of boxing.

Dominic Breazeale

I’m super excited for this. I’ve been waiting over a year and a half for a shot at this title. I’ve got three knockouts here at Barclays Center and I can’t wait for another.

I’m a great fighter but there are always things to be learned. I’ve learned a lot already with Virgil Hunter. I bring something that everyone wants to see from heavyweights, and that’s trouble. I’m going to bring pressure and action.

I’m sick of seeing this guy walking around with his belt. I’m going to put him down. People are going to be rising to their feet when I knock him down.

I’m so excited to get this fight. I’ve been on Deontay’s undercards and I steal the show every time. Deontay does nothing right in the ring. He looks like a circus-act. All he does is talk. But there’s nothing he can say on May 18.

Deontay loves to hear his own voice. All he does is talk and talk. It’s time to get in the ring. Nobody can get in there and save him. It’s just me and him. Leather on leather. We’ll see who lands first. Hopefully he gets off the canvas.

VIRGIL HUNTER, Adestrador de Breazeale

It’s a pleasure to be here at Barclays Center for a heavyweight championship fight. We have a monumental task to try to overcome. Dominic and I connected last month and after a few workouts, we saw we had a good fit and an understanding of what needs to be done.

Dominic works hard, he’s very determined and he knows that this is his opportunity and he can’t let it slip away from him. He also knows the risk at hand. We’re looking forward to May 18.

STEPHEN Espinoza, Presidente Deportes & Programación de eventos, Showtime Networks Inc.

We are thrilled to be bringing you Deontay Wilder vs. Dominic Breazeale on SHOWTIME. It would be an understatement to say that there has been a lot of speculation regarding Deontay’s future. We’re proud to have him on SHOWTIME. It was critical for Deontay, for the sport and his fans, that this fight be available not on pay-per-view, but on SHOWTIME. Because of his insistence, that’s the primary reason we’re standing here today.

SHOWTIME is where this fight belongs. We’re the home of the biggest fights and best talents, month in and month out. This is where a heavyweight title fight belongs. This will be Deontay’s 12th appearance on SHOWTIME and or SHOWTIME PPV and we’ve built something special.

Recently ESPN named its World Fame 100, which lists the most talked about athletes in the world. Deontay is ranked 34, two slots behind Tom Brady and higher than any other active boxer in the sport. He’s a bonafide superstar, there is no question.

Dominic Breazeale is big, forte, experienced and powerful. Above all, he’s motivated. It’s no secret that there is a personal rivalry between these two fighters. This will not be a friendly promotion. There is genuine animosity. This is a premium fight and this is the heavyweight championship on May 18 live on SHOWTIME.

O olímpico portorriqueño Negron listo para enfrontarse ao máximo contendiente de peso pesado Dominic Breazeale o sábado, Decembro 22 en Premier Boxing Champions en FOX & FOX Deportes Action Live desde Barclays Center en Brooklyn

NOTAS DO CAMPAMENTO DE FORMACIÓN CARLOS NEGRON

MIAMI, FL. (Novembro 9, 2018) – Puerto Rican Olympian Carlos Negron está profundamente no campo de adestramento en Miami para o seu enfrontamento de peso pesado de 10 asaltos contra o principal contendiente Dominic “Dificultade” Breazeale tendo lugar o sábado, Decembro 22 en directo en FOX e FOX Deportes e presentado por Premier Boxing Champions do Barclays Center, a casa do BROOKLYN BOXING™.

 

 

 

Nado en San Xoán, Negron representou ao seu país natal no 2008 Xogos Olímpicos e está ansioso por volver pelexar ante o gran continxente de afeccionados ao boxeo portorriqueño de Nova York en decembro. 22.

 

 

 

“Esta é unha gran oportunidade non só contra un principal rival, senón estar no gran escenario diante dos grandes afeccionados portorriqueños e facerlles unha gran actuación,” dixo Negron, que pelexou por última vez en Nova York en 2010. “Confío moito nas miñas capacidades e entendo o traballo que teño diante. Todo o mundo verá o moito que traballei cando subamos ao ring.”

 

 

 

Baixo a dirección do adestrador Herman Caicedo, Negron volverá ao ring por primeira vez desde xuño 2017, cando logrou unha vitoria por nocaut sobre o veterano contendente Derric Rossy nunha actuación dominante que o viu marcar múltiples derribos.. Negron leva case un ano traballando con Caicedo, anteriormente axudou a preparar a Luis Ortiz para o seu combate polo título de peso pesado contra Deontay Wilder.

 

 

 

“Ter a Carlos no campamento durante un período prolongado de tempo antes de que se anunciase a loita de Breazeale realmente permitiunos estar adiante neste punto do campo de adestramento.,” dixo Caicedo. “Mental e fisicamente está moi agudo agora mesmo e vaise ver na noite da loita.”

 

 

 

“Traballar con Luis Ortiz e os outros loitadores do noso ximnasio axudou moito a levarme a outro nivel,” dixo Negron. “Estamos traballando todos os días e realmente esixen o mellor de min. Aquí non hai ser mediocre. Ten que esforzarse cada día.”

 

 

 

Co Negron de seis pés de seis que se atopaba co Breazeale de seis pés de sete, este enfrontamento seguramente mostrará o poder de dous xigantes da división.

Para Negron, sabe que a tarefa que ten diante é alta de estatura e orde.

 

 

 

“Breazeale é un loitador moi duro e o que lle pode faltar en habilidade, compensa con creces no corazón,” dixo Negron. “Sen dúbida, mostrou habilidade para chegar a este punto da súa carreira, pero tamén ten ese algo especial que o levou a pasar algunhas pelexas duras.

 

 

 

“Vai reducir a intelixencia e controlar o anel. Son un loitador moi intelixente e con moita experiencia. Tiven unha perda e non quero volver experimentar iso. Creo que quen saia do seu plan de xogo vai sufrir e voume asegurar de que estou preparado para todo o que me lance.”

Isto é o que os participantes no xantar tiveron que dicir o venres no xantar de Watty's en The Flats en Beverly Hills, que contou cun convidado especial no ex campión do mundo de dúas divisións Danny García:

 

Dominic Breazeale, WBC núm. 1 Challenger de peso pesado

 

 

 

“Estiven constantemente no ximnasio. O meu adestrador Manny Robles fai un gran traballo para manterme afiado. Asegúrase de que estou vendo a outros rapaces xogar e aprender novas ferramentas.

 

 

 

“Traballei moito para chegar á cima e fíxeno levando a loita cada vez. Agardei esta oportunidade e o meu momento é agora.

 

 

 

“Carlos Negron é un gran loitador para o que estarei preparado. A xente quere ver intercambios e iso é o que pretendo. Vou darlle un gran espectáculo aos afeccionados e levar a casa unha vitoria.

 

 

 

“Sei que son un aspirante na división de peso pesado. Quedei curto contra Anthony Joshua, pero agora teño unha fermosa oportunidade de ir tras o título do CMB. Non deixo que ninguén se interpoña no meu camiño.

 

 

 

“O meu obxectivo era non estar no campamento intentando poñerse en forma. Vexo demasiado diso. Así que asegúrese de que xa chegaba o momento de centrarme nesta loita, que xa estaba a loitar contra o peso. Síntome moi ben agora mesmo e vexo a diferenza.

 

 

 

“Estou ansioso por esta gran loita en FOX e FOX Deportes. Levo moito tempo chegando para volver ao ring e este é un gran escenario para facelo.

 

 

 

“O meu foco principal é nesta loita e conseguir a oportunidade de título. Estoume preparando para Carlos Negron coma se fose Deontay Wilder. Estaría un pouco molesto se Tyson Fury gaña porque realmente quero enfrontarme a Wilder.

 

 

 

“O meu plan é gañar en decembro 22 e a próxima vez pelexo, ese cinto verde estará en liña. Estou preparado para este tiro no cinto polo que traballei.”

 

MANNY ROBLES, Adestrador de Breazeale

 

 

 

“Dominic está realmente preparado para esta loita. Estará preparado porque é un loitador extremadamente traballador. O seu traballo de forza e acondicionamento estivo moi concentrado e pensamos que se vai ver nesta loita.

 

 

 

“Tomámonos esta loita moi en serio, como facemos cada loita. Este é un dos seus mellores campamentos que tivemos xuntos. Ata agora as cousas van moi ben. Non só digo iso. Realmente creo que verás un Dominic mellor que nunca.

 

 

 

“Estamos traballando en moitas cousas diferentes – velocidade, footwork, resistencia. Entendemos que temos un bo boxeador diante. Está preparado para a tarefa. Dominic será xenial. Espere fogos de artificio o 22 de decembro.”

 

BRITANY GOOSSEN BROWN, Vicepresidente de Promocións TGB

 

 

 

“Este vai ser un gran partido de peso pesado en decembro 22 en Brooklyn. Dominic Breazeale sempre está en pelexas de acción e sabe que ten que gañar con estilo para conseguir outra oportunidade no campionato mundial de peso pesado..

 

 

 

“Breazeale é o retador obrigatorio para o Deontay Wilder vs. Gañador de Tyson Fury, pero non pode mirar máis alá do experimentado olímpico portorriqueño Carlos Negron. Esta loita vai ser unha boa forma de comezar a transmisión de FOX e FOX Deportes.”

Charlo JERMALL

 

 

“Tiven unha boa oportunidade de ver a Monroe de preto cando comentei a súa última loita. Parecía ben e sabía que esta era unha posibilidade. Estou emocionado de que estea aquí e teño contra quen actuar.

 

 

 

“Monroe púxose a proba contra algúns dos mellores loitadores do mundo e iso me motiva aínda máis. Enfrontouse aos loitadores cos que quero entrar alí, polo que vexo isto como unha oportunidade para medirme coas súas actuacións.

 

 

 

“Este é o noso primeiro concerto con Lions Only Promotions para min e o meu irmán e estamos moi emocionados de ter a oportunidade. Traballamos duro para que isto vaia e estamos preparados para mostrar a todos todo o que podemos facer.

 

 

 

“Sempre soñamos con loitar na mesma carta así entre nós. Encántanos gañar xuntos. Así foi toda a nosa vida e é outra oportunidade para mostrarnos xuntos en decembro 22.

 

 

 

“Traballei moito para chegar a este punto no que podo estar nesta posición. Prometo en decembro 22 Vou traer algo explosivo que Willie Monroe vai lembrar o resto da súa vida. Os Charlos teñen o seu propio espectáculo. Mamá, fixémolo!”

 

WILLIE MONROE JR.

 

 

 

“Alégrome de que Jermall levase esta loita. Estaba comentando a miña última loita e entón souben que esta era unha loita que quería moito. Vou aproveitar ao máximo e non deixar dúbidas de que merecía esta oportunidade en primeiro lugar.

 

 

 

“O meu equipo mantívose moi ben e agora estou nun momento tan emocionante da miña carreira. Sei que teño as ferramentas para facer o traballo en decembro 22. É a segunda vez que loito no Barclays Center e sei que ningunha das luces brillantes me vai afectar.

 

 

 

“Estou nun gran momento da miña carreira. Teño as oportunidades por diante e un camiño para aproveitalas ao máximo. É o momento de que apareza. Sei o que teño que facer contra un dos mellores loitadores do mundo. Imos facelo posible.”

 

Jermell Charlo

 

 

 

“Tony Harrison é un gran loitador e estou feliz de enfrontarme a el. Hai moitos grandes loitadores nesta división e é outro de calidade. Caeu 21 loitadores, así sabemos que ten poder. Sinto que me enfrontei a unha competición moito máis dura e vouno amosar en decembro 22.

 

 

 

“Encántame Brooklyn e estou emocionado de estar no primeiro programa de PBC en FOX deste novo acordo. Podes esquecer as críticas porque esta vai ser unha gran loita. Eu e Tony Harrison imos loitar. Serán dous tipos explosivos fortes que o deixen todo aí fóra.

 

 

 

“É xenial ter a nosa propia tarxeta de Charlos. Xa estivemos no campo de adestramento traballando moito por este. Agora imos encerrarnos aínda máis e sei que estaremos no noso mellor momento na noite de loita.

 

 

 

“Impulsámonos polo noso legado. Agora mesmo imos seguir aumentando os niveis neste deporte. Sabemos que as loitas máis importantes están ao noso alcance. Sempre estivemos competindo uns contra outros e tentando levantarnos.

 

 

 

“Isto é algo grande para os xemelgos Charlo e as promocións de Lions Only. Imos facer o que sempre facemos, e iso é traelo na noite da loita con algo de calor e sabor. Entendemos esa parte do boxeo. Vai ser unha noite emocionante para Brooklyn.”

 

TONY HARRISON

 

 

 

“Estou emocionado de estar de novo aquí neste lugar loitando no Barclays Center de novo. Fun moi resistente neste deporte. Non falei no meu camiño nesta loita. Estiven preparado para calquera loita que se me ofrecese e non foi diferente con esta loita.

 

 

 

“Ás veces hai cousas que tes que facer por ti mesmo e esta loita é unha delas. No meu corazón sei que se supón que debo estar aquí e sei do que son capaz. Charlo é un verdadeiro campión por levar esta loita e, obviamente, ten un gran equipo ao seu redor. Aplícase presión a si mesmo para seguir competindo neste nivel cada vez e iso respecto.

 

 

 

“Os dous somos moi competitivos e iso nos define como loitadores, polo que creo que iso vai sumar para facer desta unha loita verdadeiramente explosiva. Sinceramente, sorprendeume que levase a pelexa, e encomio como deportista. Sabe o perigo nesta loita que está a tomar.

 

 

 

“Xa estiven neste nivel antes. Tomei os meus golpes e contusións. Sempre fun como un verdadeiro campión e todo iso levoume a onde estou agora. En decembro 22, Garantizo que vou aparecer e deixar todo no ring.”

 

Ronnie Shields, Adestrador de Jermall

 

 

 

“É un pracer estar aquí, sobre todo cun gran loitador como Jermall. Estou desexando loitar a noite. Jermall adestra tan duro todos os días. Sabe que esta vai ser unha loita dura e que está desexando o desafío.

 

 

 

“Espero que todos saian e desfruten do espectáculo, porque Jermall está moendo cada día para estar no seu mellor momento. É un loitador especial e nunca nos engana no ximnasio. Esta vai ser unha noite que non te queres perder.”

 

Derrick James, Adestrador de Jermell

 

 

 

“Esta vai ser unha gran loita. Sabemos quen é Tony Harrison e de que trata. É moi duro e vén gañar. Pensei que estaba nas cartas cando se enfrontou a Jarrett Hurd e agora vai desafiar a Jermell, así poderiamos comezar a ter a oportunidade de ver como todos se acumulan na parte superior desta división.

 

 

 

“Imos poñernos en forma e estar preparados. Isto axudaranos a prepararnos para o que nos queda e cales son os nosos obxectivos a longo prazo. Asegúrate de saír e ver o que imos traer ao ring na noite de loita.”

 

TOM BROWN, Presidente da TGB Promocións

 

 

 

“Estou agradecido a todos por estar aquí para este anuncio dun espectáculo sensacional que terá lugar aquí no Barclays Center. É unha honra estar aquí para comezar esta serie de FOX en decembro 22.

 

 

 

“Esta será outra tarxeta de alta calidade no Barclays Center. Recentemente foron nomeados lugar oficial da PBC na costa leste e estamos encantados de comezar ese acordo con esta loita..

 

 

 

“Os dous Charlos loitaron antes no Barclays Center, e aquí tamén loitaron Harrison e Monroe, con todos eles combinando para un disco perfecto. Hai algo neste edificio que saca o mellor dos loitadores e estamos ansiosos por ver o que hai na tenda destes grandes loitadores o 22 de decembro.”

 

STEVE BECKER, Vicepresidente de Produción de PBC en FOX

 

 

 

“FOX Sports está moi emocionado de iniciar a súa nova asociación con PBC en directo en FOX e FOX Deportes a partir de 8 p.m. ET / 5 p.m. PT con estas loitas excepcionais. Esta é televisión gratuíta en FOX e FOX Deportes e estamos encantados de que estes enfrontamentos entren ao ring en decembro 22.

 

 

 

“FOX ten unha longa tradición de cubrir deportes de combate e estamos ansiosos por continuar con iso e destacar a formación estelar de boxeadores de PBC., mentres comezamos unha nova era do boxeo.”

 

Brett Yormark, CEO de BSE Global

 

 

 

“Estamos realmente honrados e encantados de organizar o primeiro evento de PBC en FOX como parte desta nova asociación en decembro 22 en Brooklyn. Somos a nova meca do boxeo e estou moi orgulloso diso.

 

 

 

“Jermell e Jermall experimentaron un éxito incrible neste edificio e estou emocionado de que co-titularan esta tarxeta. Será histórico para ti e para este edificio. Considerámosvos membros da familia BROOKLYN BOXING. Teño un xemelgo na mesma industria ca min, polo que entendo o que significa ser recoñecido ao máis alto nivel xunto ao teu irmán.

 

 

 

“Willie Monroe es un duro competidor e confío en que fará outro gran espectáculo aquí. Tamén é unha honra ter a Tony Harrison aquí connosco e loitando no Barclays Center. Espero ver a todos en decembro 22. Este é un verdadeiro agasallo de vacacións para todo Brooklyn e esperamos unha gran multitude.”
