Sugar Ray Leonard, Errol Spence Jr., Keith Thurman, Manny Pacquiao & More Discuss Saturday, Září 8 Matchup Live on SHOWTIME from Barclays Center in Brooklyn & Představovaný Premier mistrů v boxu

Showtime CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING televizní vysílání začíná 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT and features a welterweight title eliminator between Cuba’s Yordenis ugas and Argentina’s Cesar Barrionuevo and heavyweight action that pits unbeaten Polish slugger Adam Kownacki against former heavyweight champion Charles Martin.

Skupinové slevy jsou k dispozici na telefonním čísle 844-Bklyn-GP.

 

 

 

Here is what a group of current and former welterweight fighters had to say about the Garcia vs. Porter world title showdown:

 

Sugar Ray Leonard, Síň slávy & Former Unified Welterweight World Champion

 

 

 

I feel the Danny Garcia vs. Shawn Porter fight has the makings of an exciting fight from what I’ve seen of both of these talented fighters. So here is my prediction based on what I feel both fighters bring into the ring

 

 

 

Garcia will win if he uses his jab to keep Porter at bay and off balance, but Porter gains a victory if he connects and hurts Garcia early and makes him abandon his boxing ability and fight like a sluggeras I did with my first fight vs Roberto Duran.

 

 

 

This is how I see this matchup which should be an exciting fight!”

 

ERROL SPENCE JR., Unbeaten IBF Welterweight World Champion

 

 

 

I definitely want to fight the winner of Danny Garcia vs. Shawn Porter. That’s a close fight. I always picked against Danny Garcia in the past, and he always proved me wrong. Shawn Porter’s always a tough fight, because he’s going to come forward and give it his all. He’s basically trying to mug you. Ale pro tento boj, it’s hard to go against Danny Garcia. I pick Danny Garcia to win a split decision.

 

KEITH THURMAN, WBA Welterweight mistr světa; Former Unified Champion

 

 

 

I honestly love this fight, and I consider it a tremendous battle and one of the best matchups of the year. Pro mě, having fought both of them, I do believe that each is capable of hurting the other and getting one another out of there.

 

 

 

I know most fans are going to lean toward Danny Garcia with his knockout power and the potential for that. Then there is Shawn, who’s got a decent punch, even though he focuses on his output more than his one-punch solid blow and has it in his arsenal to hurt Danny Garcia.

 

 

I wouldn’t bet on Shawn getting the knockout, but I would on Shawn getting the victory, simply because of his output. I think Danny’s only chance of winning is by knockout, but even as a gambling man, I can’t put my money on Danny getting it. I’m taking Shawn Porter by decision.”

 

MANNY PACQUIAO, Multiple-Time Welterweight World Champion

 

 

 

I’m going to give the edge to Danny Garcia. They’re both gritty fighters, but I think Garcia is a little more technical with a little more ring generalship. It should be a great fight, and there’s a possibility of me fighting the winner, but we’ll have to see what happens.

 

MIKEY GARCIA, Four-Division World Champion

 

 

 

I think this is a very good matchup. Shawn Porter is the kind of athlete who is always bringing the fight to you with pressure and volume punching. They both come to fight and they can both take it and dish it out.

 

 

 

Danny Garcia can use his skills to box on the outside and work from a distance. I think Danny will be able to box a little more and win more of the tight rounds in a very close fight. I’m not sure if it will be a split-decision or a unanimous decision. I believe that Danny will use more of those tactics to win an exciting decision.

 

YORDENIS UGAS, Top Welterweight Contender

 

 

 

I have much respect for Shawn Porter, and I think it will be a great fight but, Danny Garcia has more technique and he’s also faced and beaten better opponents than Porter. I am leaning toward Danny Garcia to pull off the victory.

 

ROBERT GUERRERO, Former Multiple Division World Champion

 

 

 

This will be a very entertaining fight for the fans. I can see Danny putting up a good fight, but Porter is going to make the fight rough, and Garcia doesn’t like those type of fights. I’m going with Porter to win by split decision.”

 

VICTOR ORTIZ, Former Welterweight World Champion

 

 

 

I think it’s going to be a fast-paced fight. Shawn will be pushing forward, making it rough on Danny, and Danny will be trying to control the distance. I’m going with Danny, giving him the slight edge and saying he wins by a decision.”

 

JAMAL JAMES, Welterweight Contender

 

 

 

It’s a good one. Shawn is busier than Danny, more active and carries a lot of momentum when he fights. But that’s not always a good thing because Garcia has power with his timing, he might be able to catch Porter coming in. I’m thinking that Shawn Porter pulls it off. ”

 

BRANDON RIOS, Bývalý mistr světa & Welterweight Title Challenger

 

 

 

That’s a really tough fight to predict. If Danny can counter really well and keep Shawn Porter off of him while Porter’s coming in, then I see Danny stopping him.

 

 

 

But if Shawn Porter is able to pressure Danny like he usually does, I don’t see Shawn Porter stopping Danny, or anything, but I see him winning by split-decision if he can be in his chest all night long. But if Porter gets nailed with one of those left hooks or a straight right hand, I say Porter goes down. I’m going to go with Danny because he knocked me out.”

 

BRYANT PERRELLA, Welterweight Prospect

 

 

 

It could come down to how well Shawn Porter can take Danny Garcia’s punches in a fight that’s really hard to predict, and how well Danny can move, given that he’s not known for having fast feet similar to a guy like Keith Thurman.

 

 

 

But if Shawn can get close and smother Danny’s punches, he will make it a difficult fight. But Danny’s got really heavy hands and sits on his shots well, timing and counter-punching guys, so Porter could play into his hands.

 

 

 

Based off of clean, effective hard shots and giving him the edge in the close, competitive rounds, I’m leaning toward Danny Garcia. Shawn is tough as nails, so I see it going the distance, but just the slight edge to Danny.

 

SAMMY VASQUEZ JR., Welterweight Contender

 

 

 

 

I’m going with Shawn Porter. Not by stoppage, but Shawn creates too much pressure and Danny Garcia doesn’t throw enough punches and doesn’t deal with pressure. You saw that when he fought Guerrero, who wasn’t looking too bad in that fight.

 

 

 

Danny can win by knockout if he catches Shawn with that hook, but Shawn’s a workhorse and he puts forth far more pressure than I think Danny’s ever seen in a fight. Shawn may not be susceptible to it if he doesn’t have the proper head movement, but I believe that he will.

FRISCO, TEXAS (Červen 16, 2018) – Errol Spence Jr. defended his IBF Welterweight World Championship with a first-round knockout of previously undefeated mandatory challenger Carlos Ocampo in a homecoming fight Saturday on SHOWTIME at Ford Center at The Star. VIDEO: https://s.sho.com/2HTG4Zv

 

 

 

A sellout crowd of more than 12,600 fans packed Ford Center at The Star in Frisco to witness Spence’s first homecoming defense as champion and his first fight in Dallas since 2015. The consensus top-5 pound-for-pound fighter did not disappoint, pounding the body from the opening bell with his trademark body attack and superb ring generalship.

 

 

 

Spence, who was making his second defense as a 147-pound champion, floored Ocampo with a brutal 1-2 body shot combo, the second punch landing flush on the challenger’s side and instantly flooring him as the opening round concluded. Ocampo (22-1, 13 KO) crippled over in pain while on the canvas, was unable to beat the count and remained on the floor for more than two minutes while Spence celebrated his victory.

 

 

 

“I was a little disappointed. I wanted to give the crowd their money’s worth,” Spence said. “I wanted him to sustain a bit and give him some punishment, but the body shot got him and I dropped him.”

 

 

 

It was the ninth time Spence (24-0, 21 KO) has floored an opponent with a body shot in his 24 profesionální boje.

 

 

 

“I knew if I hit him again he would probably drop,” Spence said. “That was my game plan. I’m the body snatcher. If he reacts weirdly, I just keep going to the body and I keep breaking him down.”

 

 

 

Po boji, Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones joined Spence in the ring to congratulate him on the victory.

 

 

 

“This moment is a dream,” Spence said. “I wanted to play for the Dallas Cowboys and now I’m fighting in front of the Dallas Cowboys and Jerry Jones. Thank you to the whole Dallas Cowboys organization.

 

 

 

“We’ll definitely be back after I unify some titles. We’ll make this an annual thing where I fight here.”

 

 

 

Jones was thrilled with what was the first boxing event inside the Ford Center at The Star, the centerpiece of the 91-acre campus of the Dallas Cowboys World Headquarters and practice facility.

 

 

 

“This room was full of Dallas Cowboys football players supporting you,” Jones said. “They share your passion. I saw a guy in this ring who knew what he wanted. When you knock a guy out by hitting him once on the side of his back, you’re bad to the bone.

 

 

 

“I love his awareness. He had a plan from the beginning. He is exceptionally gifted. He has family that is behind him and our family, the Cowboys, want to be behind him as well.”

 

 

 

Po boji, SHOWTIME Sports reporter Jim Gray, who was inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame last Sunday, asked Spence what he would like to do next.

 

 

 

“I want to fight the best,” Spence promised. “Danny Garcia and Shawn Porter are fighting each other (for the WBC title) and I definitely want to make that a unifying fight. We both have the same management, we both fight on SHOWTIME. Why not make that happen? I definitely want that fight whenever it’s available.”

 

 

 

V televizním ko-funkce, Danny Roman defended his WBA Super Bantamweight World Championship with a unanimous decision over previously undefeated Moises Flores in a 12-round fight that was scored 116-112, 118-110, 120-108.

 

 

 

The champion Roman (24-2-1, 9 KO) was the faster and sharper fighter from the opening bell. Římský, who was making the second defense of his 122-pound belt, pounded the body repeatedly over 12 kola, connecting on a staggering 50 percent of his body shots. Květiny (25-1, 17 KO), who failed to make weight for the title fight and was unable to win the belt, tired in the latter half of the fight and was largely a stationary target for Roman for 12 kola.

 

 

 

Both fighters threw more than 1,000 údery, yet it was Roman who was the more effective boxer, connecting on an impressive 42 procent svých energetických střel.

 

 

 

“I was trying to box him. We tried to do a smart fight,” Roman said. “We tried to take him out, but unfortunately we couldn’t.

 

 

 

“I would like to unify. I would like to challenge any of the champions. I’d love to face Rey Vargas or Isaac Dogboe. I don’t mind going back to Japan either.”

 

 

 

“I know I messed up in training,” Flores said. “I didn’t make the weight, but I still wanted to perform and give it everything I have.

 

 

 

“We both hit each other a lot. I hit (Římský) with some good shots, I just couldn’t finish him. I was probably around 60 percent energy-wise. From the fifth round on I had to just fight with pure heart.

 

 

 

"(Římský) put on a great show for the fans, and that’s what makes me feel great. That’s all I wanted was to put on a good fight.”

 

 

 

V úvodním záchvatu Showtime CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING televizní vysílání, Javier Fortuna suffered an injury while falling through the ropes due to an accidental push in the fourth round and his 140-pound matchup with Adrian Granados was ruled a No Decision.

 

 

 

Granados (18-6-2, 11 KO) and Fortuna (33-2-1, 23 KO) both came out swinging from the opening bell. In a wild fourth round, Fortuna was deducted two points, first for punching to the back of the head, and second for holding. After the second point deduction, the former 130-pound champion Fortuna aggressively moved forward and unloaded a series of shots.

 

 

 

O chvíli později, Granados and Fortuna were clinching along the ropes near Granados’ corner when Fortuna fell backward through the ropes, whipping his neck as he fell back. Complaining of pain and lack of movement, Fortuna was stabilized with a neck brace and removed from the ring on a stretcher in what was later described as a precautionary measure.

 

 

 

V době do zastavení, Grandos was leading on all three of the judges’ scorecards.

 

 

 

“I didn’t push him. I think he fell with his own,"Řekl Granados. “I think he was looking for an excuse on his way out. We were both battling, but I knew he could feel I was getting stronger. He caught me with a shot and it just turned me up.

 

 

 

“First and foremost I just want to pray that he’s OK. Let’s do the rematch. I’ve been dying for a fight at 140.”

 

 

 

Saturday’s SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast will re-air on Monday at 10 p.m. ET/PT on SHOWTIME EXTREME and will be available via SHOWTIME ON DEMAND and SHOWTIME ANYTIME.

Here is what the press conference participants had to say Thursday ahead of the first boxing event to take place inside Ford Center at The Star:

 

ERROL SPENCE JR.

 

 

 

I’m really happy to be here and I’m so happy that everyone came out. Saturday night is going to be great. I’ve been training for 10 weeks and I’m 100 percent focused on Ocampo. I’m here to do my job, which is to win and look good winning.

 

 

 

Ocampo is very dangerous because he has nothing to lose. It’s his first title fight, which is a position I’ve been in before. I had a lot of fire and I felt like I had nothing to lose. I’m sure he’s been training hard and is focused. I know he’s fighting for him family so he’s going to come to fight. I want a guy who’s going to test me so the crowd gets their money’s worth.

 

 

 

I’ve had pressure my whole boxing career. Being on Olympian and a top prospect was pressure, but then I also went overseas to take the title from a top fighter. I’ve always overcome the pressure on me and I’m going to overcome another test on Saturday night.

 

 

 

Every fight is a statement fight. Nezáleží na tom, kdo bojuji. All eyes are on me in the welterweight division. People want to see if there are chinks in my armor, so it’s important for me to put on a great performance and prove I’m the best welterweight in the division.

 

 

 

Dallas already is a boxing town, just not enough boxing comes here. I can be the star who has annual fights and bring the city out like we’re doing Saturday night. I’m going to prove we’re a boxing city in Dallas and that Texas is a boxing state period. I do this for the whole state.

 

 

 

We work hard every camp and we’re 100 percent dedicated. There hasn’t been much difference in this camp than normal. The sparring with Jermell Charlo was top quality and has me prepared for Saturday night.

 

 

 

I’m ready to line up those other champions. I’ve said that since I was 15-0. I want to fight every opponent and take them out no matter who it is. I’m here to prove that I’m the best in the division.

 

CARLOS OCAMPO

 

 

 

We’re here on the same stage and I’m ready. I’m appreciative to be here and I’m calm. Nemám co ztratit. He has all the pressure of being in his hometown. I’m just relaxed and ready to fight.

 

 

 

I’ve studied his fights enough. What’s most important is that I know that he has everything to lose and I don’t. He has a home field advantage, but at the end of the day, it’s just two guys in the ring.

 

 

 

I’ve gotten a great reception from the people here in Dallas. I’ve been treated like a champion and after Saturday I’ll be a world champion. You don’t want to miss this fight.

 

 

 

He can try to come and knock me out, but this is my dream. This is what I’ve trained my whole life for and I’m not going to let this chance pass me by.

 

 

 

I’m going to use my height, distance and jab throughout the fight. The counter will be important for me. I’m going to look to catch him so he better be ready.

 

 

 

“Chystám se nechat vše v kruhu. I’m going to show what I have and give everyone a great performance from start to finish.

 

DANIEL ROMAN

 

 

 

Flores is a tough opponent. I don’t overlook anybody. I know he’s going to come in and fight. Defending my belt is the only thing that’s on my mind.

 

 

 

We work hard like always. The only thing that changes in camp is strategy, and we will be ready for anything Flores can bring.

 

 

 

We’re going to be ready for his pressure. I’m going to fight a smart fight. If we have a chance to take him out early, then I’m going to jump on it. You never know what could happen in a fight.

 

 

 

Flores is not an easy opponent. Nobody is at this level. I just work hard every day like it’s my first shot at a world title. I know that if I put in the work, everything will come together in the ring.

 

MOISES FLORES

 

Roman is a good fighter, that’s why we’re here. Hopefully on Saturday night he won’t be able to take my volume of punches. I’m going to bring pressure for every moment of the fight and we’ll see if he holds up.

 

 

 

Everyone knows that I like to come forward and make exciting fights. There will be drama and I’m expecting to come out of there with my hand raised.

 

 

 

On Saturday night I’m going to get redemption for everything that happened in my last fight and deliver a win and an exciting fight. This is a chance that I’ve worked and trained hard to get again.

 

JAVIER FORTUNA

 

 

 

Everyone knows what I can do here in the ring. I’m very glad to be here meeting Granados, because we’re going to give the fans a a great fight on Saturday that’s going to steal the show.

 

 

 

I know that Granados has fought a lot of top opposition, but on Saturday night, I’m going to be a different fighter than he’s ever seen in the ring.

 

 

 

This will be a battle. Everyone will see on fight night what the difference is between me and him. I’m a special fighter. I’m going to prove it again on Saturday.

 

ADRIAN GRANADOS

 

 

 

It’s been a long hard road to this fight. I know I have marks on my record, but I can easily say that I know all of them have been controversial. I’ve pushed through everything and I know that I’m truly respected as a fighter.

 

 

 

I’m always going to bring the same fire and determination to the ring. If my opponent is brave enough to stand with me, then it’s going to be all-action. Tak i tak, I’m coming to break him down and get the victory.

 

 

 

‘Recently I’ve gone against a lot of opposition that is naturally bigger than me, but I’ve never backed down or been afraid of any of them. This fight is going to prove that I belong in the upper echelon of boxing.

 

 

 

I’ve checked out Fortuna’s fights and he’s a scrapper. He likes to bang too in the ring just like I do. It’s all the recipes for a can’t miss fight.

 

DERRICK JAMES, Spence Trainer

 

 

 

I’m very happy to see everybody out here and we’re so glad that the fans are getting involved. This city means everything to me and Errol, so to bring a great night like this and have this huge reception from the fans, is a little bit of extra motivation.

 

 

 

I think we’re going to see a great fight. Ocampo is very tough opposition and Errol has trained very hard. We’re going to see the best Errol Spence on Saturday night and I’m sure we’ll see the best Carlos Ocampo, which should make for a fun night for the fans.

 

BRITTANY GOOSSEN BROWN, Vice President of TGB Promotions

 

 

 

We are so excited for Saturday night and to be bringing the first boxing event inside Ford Center at The Star. Dallas is a great fight town and who better to headline the first title fight here in 50 years than hometown favorite Errol Spence Jr.? He is sure to put on a great performance for his hometown fans.

 

 

 

It has truly been a pleasure to work with the entire Dallas Cowboys organization throughout this promotion and we hope this is just the start of bringing sellout crowds here to the heart of Texas. We can’t wait to see you all there on Saturday night.

 

STEPHEN Espinoza, President Sports & Events Programming, Showtime Network Inc.

 

 

 

SHOWTIME is thrilled to be here at The Star for the first boxing event inside of Ford Center. Week after week and month after month, we’ve delivered the best fighters in the most meaningful fights to boxing fans. Saturday is the 11th SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING this year. These events have featured more than 15 world boje o mistrovský titul, just in the first six months of the year. We’re doing more boxing and more high quality boxing than any other network by far.

 

 

 

Saturday is no exception, especially in terms of quality. Errol Spence Jr. is a consensus top five pound-for-pound fighter. He’s knocked out 10 straight fighters and it was 2014 when an opponent last went the distance. Errol is in many ways our Dak Prescott (Dallas Cowboys quarterback), he’s a young star, a fan favorite and we expect him to be one of the faces of the sport for years to come.

 

 

 

If you know of the tradition of Mexican fighters in this sport, then you know that Carlos Ocampo cannot be overlooked. He’s coming to win and that makes him very dangerous and should create an exciting fight.

 

 

 

Both of the opening bouts leading up to the main event on SHOWTIME are significant bouts with fighters that bring all action styles to the ring.

FRISCO, TEXAS (Červen 4, 2018) – Super bantamweight world champion Daniel Roman will defend his belt against unbeaten Moises “Chucky” Květiny Sobota, Červen 16 live on SHOWTIME from Ford Center at The Star in Frisco, Texas in an event presented by Premier Boxing Champions.

Undefeated welterweight champion Errol “Pravda” Spence, Jr. will defend his IBF world title in a Dallas-area homecoming at the Dallas Cowboys facility against unbeaten mandatory challenger Carlos Ocampo in the main event. It will be the first boxing event inside Ford Center and Spence’s first hometown fight as world champion.

 

 

 

Vstupenky na akce, which is promoted by TGB Promotions in association with Man Down Promotions, jsou již v prodeji a je možné zakoupit na www.SeatGeek.com.

 

 

 

This is shaping up to be a fantastic card with the addition of the 122-pound championship fight between Daniel Roman and Moises Flores and former champion Javier Fortuna taking on Adrian Granados in a 140-pound special attraction,” řekl Tom Brown, Prezident TGB Promotions. “None of these boxers have reverse in their gear box, which promises entertaining battles for the fans at The Star and those watching at home on SHOWTIME.

 

 

 

The 27-year-old Roman (24-2-1, 9 KO) will be making his second title defense of the WBA 122-pound championship he won with a TKO victory over Shun Kubo last September in Japan. The 28-year-old, Los Angeles, Calif., returned to Japan and made his first title defense with a unanimous decision victory over Ryo Matsumoto this February. Roman enters this bout having won 16-straight fights.

 

 

 

Everyone knows I want to fight the best and Flores is right up there,” řekl Roman. “He’s unbeaten for a reason and he’s the number one challenger for my title. Nebudu ho brát na lehkou váhu. I’m motivated to be great. I’m more focused now than ever before. I’m not going to let Flores, or anyone else take my belt. The plan is simple. Pick him apart round by round just like I’ve done in my other world title fights.

 

 

 

Květiny (25-0, 17 KO), Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexiko, returns to the ring after a no contest against Guillermo Rigondeaux in a fight that saw Flores hit and knocked out with a shot that was initially called legal, but was eventually ruled to have come after the bell, thus causing the no contest. The 31-year-old scored an impressive win with a decision victory over Oscar Escandon in 2015 that earned him an interim 122-pound title and followed that up with victories over previously once-beaten fighters Luis Emanuel Cusolito and Paulus Ambunda.

 

 

 

I’m going to make Daniel Roman fight me every round until the end,” said Flores. “He’s a good boxer and a counter puncher, but I’m a warrior so I’ll be ready for anything he brings. If he can’t hold up to my power, then he’s going down early. This is a must-win and I’m determined to become a world champion on June 16.

 

 

 

Bohatství (33-2-1, 23 KO) won the super featherweight title with a unanimous decision against Bryan Vasquez in 2015 and enters this fight looking to bounce back from a split-decision loss to lightweight champion Robert Easter, Jr. in January on SHOWTIME. The 28-year-old Fortuna, La Romana, Dominikánská republika, failed to make weight for the Easter fight and will now seek to challenge in the 140-pound division.

 

 

 

I know that Adrian Granados is a warrior, but this fight breaks in my favor because I am simply the better fighter,” řekl Fortuna. “I respect Granadosstyle and I know he surprises a lot of people with his resiliency in the ring. I’m fully prepared to out-box him on fight night. I’m not concerned about moving up in weight either because once we step into the ring, I’ll be the bigger guy.

 

 

 

The 28-year-old Granados (18-6-2, 12 KO) has garnered a reputation as a boxer willing to accept all challenges and one who always pushed his opponents to the brink. Fighting out of Chicago, he looks to get back on the winning track with a victory over Fortuna. Last year Granados lost a unanimous decision to former welterweight champion Shawn Porter and a split-decision to four-division champion Adrien Broner. Before those two losses, Granados had put together a five-match win streak that included a TKO victory over Amir Imam.

 

 

 

Javier Fortuna is a crafty southpaw, but I’m going to be stronger and better than ever back at 140-pounds,” said Granados. “I feel like I can knock out anybody at this weight. After I beat Amir Imam, everyone has been ducking me at this weight class. I’m going to make a statement about where I belong in boxing and give the fans a great show like I always do.

DALLAS (Květen 30, 2018) – Neporažený welterweight mistr světa Errol Spence Jr. hosted a media workout at his gym in Dallas Tuesday as he prepares for his homecoming title defense at Dallas Cowboys Headquarters against undefeated challenger Carlos Ocampo Sobota, Červen 16 live on SHOWTIME from Ford Center at The Star in Frisco, Texas in an event presented by Premier Boxing Champions.

 

 

 

The IBF titleholder spoked to media at the R&R Boxing Club along with trainer Derrick James, as the two prepare for Spence’s second title defense after winning the title from then unbeaten champion Kell Brook last May.

 

 

 

Vstupenky na akce, which is promoted by TGB Promotions in association with Man Down Promotions, jsou již v prodeji a je možné zakoupit na www.SeatGeek.com.

 

 

 

Here is what Spence and James had to say Tuesday:

 

ERROL SPENCE JR.

 

 

 

It feels good to be fighting back at home in Dallas. This is where I started and where my core fan base is. It’s great to fight in front of my people and even better that I can do it as a world champion now.

 

 

 

I wanted to make my first title defense in Dallas, but everything happens for a reason and now I have this great opportunity to fight at the Dallas Cowboys’ zařízení. It’s an incredible venue that has everything you would want. It’s going to be a great atmosphere on June 16.

 

 

 

We’re working hard on our game plan and sharpening our skills in camp to make sure I’m the best version of myself when I step into the ring against Ocampo.

 

 

 

Timing is key in boxing. It’s more important than speed and it’s something I really focus on when I’m training. It’s timing and accuracy. You can be fast but if you don’t land, it doesn’t mean anything.

 

 

 

I’m a versatile fighter who is able to switch it up. I can box from the outside but also go on the inside. These are things that we’re always working on in the gym. Our opponent may bring something different than we expected into the ring, so we work on having a plan for everything.

 

 

 

It’s great to have another world champion like Jermell Charlo in camp with me. Iron sharpens iron and we just work hard every day so that we can push each other to the next level. All of that helps me become victorious.

 

 

 

I wouldn’t say I have one skill that sticks out the most in my arsenal. I’m a balanced boxer who can do everything. I can jab, throw a combo and show strong defense. I balance all of the attributes you need in the ring and that’s what makes me a great boxer.

 

 

 

I’ve been putting this division on notice for a while. Červen 16 is another day that we’re going to give another one-sided performance and dominate. I’ve had the welterweight division on notice since my first fight. They know I’m here.

 

 

 

Whoever wins the fight between Danny Garcia and Shawn Porter for the WBC title will have to fight me. I’m ready to unify. I’m ready to take the belt from either one of those guys.

 

DERRICK JAMES, Spence Trainer

 

 

 

Errol is an incredibly hard worker in the gym and he always has been. We’re just making sure he’s on task and able to be peaking on June 16. I have no worries that he’s going to be distracted by fighting at home.

 

 

 

There can definitely be a lot of distractions at home, but Errol is determined and I know he has the mentality that will allow him to put on his best performance. We’ve been preparing for anything Ocampo could possibly bring to the ring.

 

 

 

 

I’m excited that my two daughters will be able to come to the fight. This night is all about our community and giving everyone here something to cheer about. The city has indicated that they’re really coming out to support Errol and he’s going to reward them.

 

 

 

If we keep putting in the work like we have been, everything is going to come naturally on fight night. We’ve taken a look at what Ocampo likes to do and we’ll be ready. Konec konců, I think Errol is going to put on a great performance for this city.

PHILADELPHIA (Květen 12, 2018) - Vyhlídka na lehkou váhu s modrým čipem, kterou Devin Haney získal, byla tou nejtěžší zkouškou jeho kariéry, porazit veterána Masona Menarda přes deváté kolo TKO v hlavní události ShoBox: Nová generace Pátek v SHOWTIME od 2300 Arena ve Philadelphii.

Haney (20-0, 13 KO) vstoupil do boje jako vysoce ceněná vyhlídka, která nikdy nebyla testována. Čelil své první zkoušce v pátek v čem byl plánovaný 10kolový zápas ShoBox veterán Menard (33-3, 24 KO).

Haney převzal kontrolu nad bojem od úvodního zvonu a nikdy se ho nevzdal. Devatenáctiletý mladík zvedl Menarda dominujícím úderem zvenčí a bočním pohybem se vyhnul úderu. Menard nebyl schopen přistát s žádnými smysluplnými údery a ve srovnání s Haneyovým důsledným pohybem a atletikou vypadal pomalu..

Po devíti kolech nadvlády, Menardův roh toho viděl dost a po kole zastavil boj. Haney obstál v té nejtěžší zkoušce své kariéry, ani jednou nenechal Menarda převzít kontrolu nad bojem.

"Plán spočíval v tom, že tam vejdu a vypracujeme úder.",“Řekl Haney. "Pokud přišlo vyřazení.", Vzal bych to, ale vešel jsem tam, nasadil boxerskou kliniku a ukázal světu, že dokážu jít naplno 10 kola.

"Mám pocit, že jsem předvedl představení.". Byl jsem uvolněný a dělal svou práci. Jsem rozhodně další superstar. Od této chvíle budou jen větší a lepší věci. pracuji velmi tvrdě. Vstoupil jsem a podal dobrý výkon proti muži, o kterém lidé říkali, že mě může vyrazit nebo mi ublížit.”

Po boji, poražený Menard respektoval Haneyho výkon.

"Nikdy mi neublížil.". Chytil mě nejlepšími výstřely, jaké dokázal, a nikdy mi neublížil. Ale dítě může rozhodně bojovat,“Přiznal Menard.

V 10 kole ko-funkce, vyhlídka na superbantamovou váhu Joshua „Don’t Blink“ Greer (17-1-1, 9 KO) vstřelil svůj třetí ShoBox knockout proti rodákovi z Baltimoru Glennu Dezurnovi (9-1-2, 6 KO).

Boj byl od samého začátku výbušný, oba bojovníci tlačili tempo. Greer využil Dezurnova vysokého strážce k vypracování těla, zatímco Dezurn se tlačil dopředu, aby uvnitř zasáhl Greera. Greer začal dominovat ve třetím kole, když velká pravá ruka zranila Dezurna a zbývaly dvě minuty.

"Věděl jsem, že přijde tvrdě, tak jsem dal práci do tělocvičny, abych se ujistil, že jsem připraven.",“Řekl Greer. "Jsem rád, že se všechno vyplatilo."

Greer v pátém kole zranil Dezurna rovnou levicí, a nakonec ho svázal proti provazům řadou úderů, které téměř zastavily Dezurnův trenér Barry Hunter. Po kole, Hunter varoval Dezurna, že zastaví boj, pokud se Dezurn nebude bránit.

Navzdory tomu, že v pátém téměř klesl, Dezurn přežil další tři kola. Zraněný a vyčerpaný Dezurn nebyl schopen dát si nic za své údery a v osmém kole poprvé v kariéře narazil na plátno, než rozhodčí Benjy Esteves zastavil boj s 1:47 zbývající.

"Chytil jsem se několika dobrými výstřely.", ale rychle jsem se vzpamatoval a byl jsem stále v boji,“Řekl Dezurn. "Mám hodně srdce.", což je pro mě dar a kletba. “

Sebevědomý Greer byl po zápase potěšen svým výkonem.

"Nepřekvapilo mě, že jsem ho mohl vyrazit.",“Řekl Greer. "Věděl jsem, že mohu zlomit jeho vůli."

V osmikolové doporučené atrakci, vyhlídka na lehkou těžkou váhu Charles Foster (16-0, 8 KO) zůstal neporažený jednomyslným rozhodnutím vyhrát proti Alvinovi Varmallovi ml. (15-0-2, 12 KO), skóroval 77-75, 78-74, 79-73.

Foster dominoval boji od samého počátku, ovládající mizerného Varmalla, kdo se stal 174th bojovník, který utrpěl svoji první ztrátu ShoBox. Varmall se v prvních kolech odvážně pokusil dostat dovnitř, ale disciplinovanější Foster ho držel na uzdě, s Vermallem zakopnutím a uvázáním uvnitř.

"Moje zkušenost byla tím rozdílem.",“Řekl Foster. "Naložil na jeden úder a já jsem se držel svého herního plánu." – trčí za úder, práce s tělem. “

Foster okořenil Varmalla levou rukou olova, označit svého soupeře natolik, aby ho rozbil a nakonec unavil. Varmall vyslal několik výstřelů, ale nebyl schopen Fosterovi ublížit a v pozdějších kolech, jeho údery postrádaly sílu.

"Když přišel dovnitř, nemohl mi ublížit.",“Řekl Foster. "Byl jsem tím, kdo řídil celý boj."

V úvodním zápase čtyřbojového televizního vysílání, superbantamová váha Arnold Khegai udržel svůj neposkvrněný rekord neporušený jednomyslným rozhodnutím nad veteránem Adamem Lopezem, skóroval 77-74, 77-74, 78-73.

Tvorba jeho U.S.. debut, ovládaný Khegai (12-0-1, 8 KO) stiskl akci od začátku. Khegai pracoval s úderem a zůstal mobilní, vydělávat na vratkém Lopezovi (16-2-3, 8 KO) s perfektně načasovaným protikusem s 30 sekund zbývajících do druhého kola. Khegai zůstal v prvních kolech zaneprázdněn důslednými kontrakcemi, ale získal bodový odpočet za zásah do zadní části Lopezovy hlavy, přičemž v šestém kole zbývaly sekundy.

"To byl můj první boj v USA.". a chtěl jsem ukázat něco zvláštního,“Řekl Khegai. "Všichni čekali na vyřazení.", ale chtěl jsem ukázat své boxerské schopnosti. Mohl jsem jít na KO uprostřed boje, ale chtěl jsem dokázat, že umím boxovat. “

I přes mírný pokles produktivity v pozdějších kolech, Ukrajinec zůstal efektivní, přistání 31 záběry těla ve srovnání s pouhými 15 od Lopeze.

Lopez, zaskočeni Khegaiovým bojovým stylem, byl zklamán svým výkonem v rekordní sedmé pozici ShoBox vzhled.

"Čekal jsem, že bude špinavý bojovník.", ale trochu mě to odhodilo ze hry. Rozhodčí mi stále říkal „neodplatujte, neodplatujte. “

"Opravdu jsem nemohl přistát se svými tvrdými střelami. Přistál jsem pár,“Řekl Lopez. "Ve čtvrtém nebo pátém jsem ho ohromil pravým hákem.". Trochu se otřásl, ale je to dobrý bojovník. Vystoupil z toho. “

Akce byla podporována Greg Cohen Promotions ve spojení s Akce Devina Haneyho a Tvrdé zásahy.
