Here is what the press conference participants had to say Sunday:

Manny Pacquiao

“There were a lot of opportunities for me to pick an easier fight than this. But I picked Errol Spence Jr. because I want a real fight and a great fight for the fans. I’m a fighter and boxing is my passion.

“Errol Spence Jr. is aggressive, young and undefeated. He’s dedicated to his career. This is definitely not an easy opponent. This is the kind of opponent you can never underestimate.

“It’s been a long time since I fought a southpaw opponent. We had to change some of our strategy compared to previous fights and we’ll throw some different combinations.

“I don’t think Errol needs advice from Floyd Mayweather. I believe that Errol is a better fighter than Mayweather. Errol can teach Floyd how to fight toe-to-toe.

“I don’t want to be overconfident, because Errol is too good of an opponent. His determination and passion for the sport is always there. When I say I’m going to do something, it’s real and from the heart, it’s not to impress anybody.

“I had started training in the last week of May in the Philippines. So when I got here to Los Angeles, I was just continuing what I was doing. It’s good for me to have the rest that I’ve had the last two years. I’ve been boxing since I was 12 years old until now. When I went back to training, I was still hungry and dedicated.

“I won’t predict another first round knockdown like I had against Thurman. I’m focusing my mind, body and spirit on winning the fight. That’s the only goal.
“This is one of the biggest challenges in my career. I can’t say it’s the biggest, because I’ve been fighting the best fighters in the world for years. But he’s right up there with anyone I’ve faced.

“I’ve been boxing for more than 25 careers as a pro. I think that I’ve seen every kind of style that’s out there.

“This is a one of a kind and prodigious fight. There’s going to be a lot of action in the ring. I’m so thankful for everyone who supports me and I’m happy to be in this position again fighting one of the best fighters in the world.”

ERROL SPENCE JR.

“This is a great opportunity. Coming off of my accident I went right to fighting Danny Garcia and now Pacquiao. A lot of people were in the Pacquiao sweepstakes. When I got the call about this fight, I agreed right away and didn’t give it a second thought.

“There aren’t that many southpaws in boxing, so you don’t usually spar that many. We’ve got a lot of guys in camp now who can fight that left-handed style. Obviously I can’t find someone who fights exactly like Manny, but you can find guys who can mimic the tempo and pace. So that’s who we’ve been working with.

“You can see that Manny is still an explosive fighter with great speed. We’ve been putting together a game plan and we’ve been working on implementing it. Come August 21, you’ll see it in the ring.

“Manny can lull you to sleep giving you compliments. Lakini mara pete kengele, he’s going to jump all over you.

“My chin since the accident has been tested in sparring and in the Danny Garcia fight. I imagine Manny is going to try to come in and test it as well.

“Just because he’s 42-years-old I don’t think it’s going to hurt him in training. He’s not blowing up in weight between fights and he’s not distracted. That’s why he’s been the same Manny Pacquiao for decades. I’m looking forward to the same Pacquiao who fought Keith Thurman and before that.

“Manny has a lot of tendencies, of course you’re going to see some things over the span of his whole career. When it’s time to buckle down, you know he’s the guy who’s going to fight. It can be a pro or a con, but he’s going to make it a fan-friendly fight.

“I don’t see myself ever getting knocked out. I just don’t see it. We’re going to be mindful that he has power. He knocked down Thurman and hurt him with a body shot. We’ll keep that in mind. But I’m not thinking about if he can knock me out.

“I have the ability to finish Pacquiao. Kwangu mimi, ingawa, I’m focused on winning the fight. If you rush and go for the knockout, you either look sloppy or something goes wrong. I have to fight my fight and at my pace. Kama mtoano inakuja, I’ll go for it.

“This is going to be a great fight. Pacquiao is going to bring it like he always does, but I’m definitely going to come through with the victory.”

Groves vs. Chudinov will serve as a prelude to the long-awaited SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING® main event—the welterweight championship bout between British World Champion Kell Brook and undefeated American challenger Errol Spence Jr., which will air live on SHOWTIME at 5:15 p.m. NA/2:15 p.m. PT.

Live coverage of Groves vs. Chudinov will be provided by Sky Sports Box Office with sportscasters Adam Smith and Carl Froch and will begin at approximately 4:30 p.m. NA/1:30 p.m. PT exclusively in the U.S. juu ya SHOWTIME Sports Facebookpage and the SHOWTIME Sports YouTube channel. Fans can follow all SHOWTIME Sports social accounts (SHOsports) Jumamosi afternoon for the precise start time to Groves vs. Chudinov following undercard action from Bramall Lane stadium in Sheffield, England. These platforms will be geo-blocked for U.S. tu.

“When we saw the opportunity to deliver this great super middleweight championship fight to the U.S. watazamaji, we jumped at it,” said Executive Vice President and General Manager of SHOWTIME Sports, Stephen Espinoza. “We thank Matchroom Sport for making it possible for us to carry this bonus coverage to the U.S. Doing so compliments our robust digital and social media content plan serving boxing fans online and attracting new ones. This further demonstrates our unrivaled commitment to the sport. No one is making a more significant and impactful contribution to boxing’s momentum than SHOWTIME.”

Former three-time title challenger Groves and former champ Chudinov (14-1, 10 Kos) will meet for the vacant WBA Super Middleweight World Championship in a matchup of the WBA’s No. 1 na No. 2 challengers in a co-featured bout at Bramall Lane.

Wamo (25-3, 18 Kos) has won four straight since teaming up with 2016 Trainer of the Year Shane McGuigan following a close split-decision loss to then-WBC Champion Badou Jack in 2015. The only other blemishes on his record came in title challenges to long-time 168-pound champ Carl Froch.

“I believe this is the best opportunity for me to achieve my dream and become world champion,” Groves said earlier this week. “Time is on my side. I had a good year last year, and I’m in a good place. I’ve put in the work, na sasa, I need to make this count.

“Everything that’s happened in the past has just made me more determined. I know the pressure is on, and I can’t afford to make any more mistakes. This might be my best chance to win a world title, but it could also be my last.”

Chudinov (14-1, 10 Kos) originally won the WBA Super Middleweight Title with a split-decision victory over Felix Sturm in 2015 and made one successful defense before losing via controversial majority decision in a rematch with Sturm in 2016. Sturm later vacated the belt due to injury, opening up the opportunity for Chudinov to win back his title Jumamosi hii against Groves. Chudinov is ranked No. 1 by the WBA while Groves is ranked No. 2.

SHEFFIELD (Mei 24) – Kell Brook will make his fourth IBF Welterweight World Title defense against U.S. star Errol Spence Jr. at Bramall Lane in Sheffield, England this Saturday May 27, kuishi juu ya Showtime (5:15 p.m. ET/2:15 p.m. PT).

 

Brook (36-1, 25 Kos) and mandatory challenger Spence, (21-0, 18 Kos), clash on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING in one of the biggest fights in the 147-pound division, and the elite pairing are promising to deliver an electric night of action.

 

Both fighters participated in a public media workout today, Jumatano, at Peace Gardens in Sheffield, England. Below is what they had to say:

 

KELL BROOK

“We are going to rock Sheffield Jumamosi usiku. Mimi niko tayari, I’m pumped, Siwezi kusubiri.

 

“There is a lot of pressure but I always perform better under pressure. I’m meant to be on the big stage, I’m ready for the pressure and to see the bright lights.

 

"[Errol Spence] is a serious dude from America, he’s a young hungry lion, but he’s not beaten anyone like me. I’m a champion and I’ve been a champion. I’m defending. I know both sides of the coin, I’ve prepared very well.

 

“I’m ready for a war. And that’s what you’re going to see – a war Jumamosi usiku. There are going to be two winners Jumamosi usiku: that is going to be myself and everyone watching.

 

“There’s no way he can beat me. I’m a man possessed and I have a serious job to do. This is my night to shine.

 

“I love it [being the underdog]. I was born for it. People don’t have me winning this fight, but that just gives me the extra energy I need to go out and prove them all wrong.

 

“This guy is a talented guy, but he’s never been tested. He’s never been in with someone who is so determined like me. Who’s bigger, nguvu, who has all this energy, who’s meant for this game, who’s meant to be a winner. He hasn’t been in with someone with that mindset, and that’s what I’m coming to bring Jumamosi.

 

“All the hard work has been done. The talking will stop; we’re ready to let some fireworks fly now.

 

“I can see us both maybe hitting the canvas. You’re going to be on the edge of your seat from round one. He’s not going to take a backwards step, and I’m not [ama]. All I can say is it’s going to be a thriller.

 

“I’ve arrived. Ni ndoto ya kuja kweli. It’s going to be so perfect for me that night to walk out and just see everyone. The electricity is going to be phenomenal.”

 

ERROL SPENCE JR.

 

“This is my time, this is my era. This is my time to shine. This is my time to get the belts, this is my time to unify and become the undisputed welterweight champion of the world. This is just another stepping stone to get to where I want to be.

 

"Nina 100 asilimia tayari, Mimi nina 100 percent focused, and I’m 100 percent ready to give the fans what they want, which is a real great fight.

 

“I can’t let the fans get to me. I’m not worried about him having his hometown fans. Eventually everyone will be my fans by the end of the night.

 

“I don’t feel the pressure at all. I feel like there is more pressure on him because he’s fighting at home. Of course there’s pressure on me to win, but I welcome that pressure. It’s going to do nothing but motivate me, make me more hungry and make we want to win even more.

 

“You just have to have that ‘it’ factor, and I think I have it. I’m not worried about the crowd, I’m not worried about the boos or anything like that.

 

“It’s a good step-up. Kell Brook is a good fighter, he has great skills. I welcome this step-up – I’ve been asking for it for a long time and I’m finally getting my opportunity.

 

“My confidence comes from my hard work. I know the hours and time that I put in the gym.”

 

“This is an ideal situation. I would be disappointed if I was fighting someone else because he vacated. Mimi nina mpiganaji halisi, Nataka kupambana bora, I want to fight the champion and earn it the right way. I can’t wait to prove I am one of the best fighters in the welterweight division.

 

“I’ve been on the USA team for a long time. Kama amateur, representing U.S. in the Olympics and as a pro having this USA patch on me and fighting for my country. Najisikia Jumamosi is kind of like a USA vs UK battle. And U.S.A. is going to win.”

*Chanzo: Nafasi za ndondi za kimataifa

 

WBA na WBC bingwa wa ulimwengu wa WBC Keith Thurman aliunganisha majina hayo Machi 4 Na ushindi wa uamuzi wa mgawanyiko dhidi ya Danny Garcia katika matchup adimu ya mabingwa wasio na uwezo. Lamont Peterson alichukua taji la kawaida la WBA la sekondari kwenye Februari. 18, na juu ya Aprili 22 Shawn Porter aligonga Andre Berto kuwa mpinzani wa lazima kwa ukanda wa WBC wa Thurman. Bingwa wa Welterweight iliyobaki, Manny Pacquiao, amewekwa kutetea jina lake la WBO dhidi ya Jeff Horn kwenye Julai 2.

 

Sasa ni zamu ya Brook na Spence kuchukua hatua ya katikati katika mgawanyiko wa uzuri wa ndondi.

Hapana. 1 Mshambuliaji amewatoa wapinzani nane wa moja kwa moja na ameboresha kadiri kiwango chake cha upinzani kimeongezeka - wapinzani wake sita wa mwisho walishikilia rekodi ya pamoja ya kuvutia ya 151 hushinda dhidi ya hasara nane tu. Mkazi wa Dallas anasafiri nje ya nchi kwa fursa hii ya kichwa iliyosubiriwa kwa muda mrefu wakati anajaribu kuwa Mmarekani wa kwanza kumwondoa Mwingereza kwenye ardhi ya Uingereza katika karibu muongo mmoja. **

Sukari Ray Leonard - Bingwa wa zamani wa ulimwengu wa welterweight

“Nimefurahiya sana juu ya vita hii haswa, Hasa kwa sababu wapiganaji wote wanapaswa kuwa kwenye mchezo wao wa A. Najua kuna mazungumzo juu ya upasuaji wa macho wa Kell kuwa shida ya kisaikolojia, Lakini kutoka kwa uzoefu wa kibinafsi, Sioni kuwa hivyo. Sikuwahi kufikiria juu ya jicho langu mara tu daktari alinipa taa ya kijani kibichi.

 

“Kuniuliza ni nani atakayeshinda vita hii, Nina kipenzi changu katika Errol Spence. Lakini, Kulingana na sanaa ya kila mpiganaji wa kila mpiganaji, Punch moja inaweza kugeuza meza pande zote. Kwamba kuwa alisema, Nitakaa nyuma na kutazama usiku mzuri wa ndondi. "

 

Keith Thurman - Unified WBA & Bingwa wa Dunia wa WBC Welterweight

"Hii ni vita ya kupendeza. Sijamfuata Kell sana, Lakini ni wazi nimeona mapigano ya Errol huko U.S. Errol ni ngumu, mpiganaji mchanga ambaye anaingia tu kwenye jicho la umma, Na dhahiri Kell ana nguvu ya umati wa Uingereza upande wake.

 

"Inapaswa kuwa vita ngumu ambayo inazungumza na nguvu ya mgawanyiko wa welterweight. Wapiganaji wote ni wanaume ambao ningekuwa wazi kupigana wakati ninaendelea kuunganisha mgawanyiko katika 2018. Kama shabiki wa mapigano, Wacha tuone ni nini 'maalum' kuhusu Kell Brook, Na tutaona ikiwa Errol Spence anaweza kutuonyesha yeye ndiye 'ukweli.' Inapaswa kuwa vita nzuri na nitakuwa nikitazama. "

 

Danny Garcia - Bingwa wa zamani wa Dunia wa Welterweight

“Nadhani hii ni 50/50 kupambana. Nadhani mtu aliye na mpango bora wa mchezo atashinda. Kuna shinikizo nyingi kwenda kwenye uwanja wa mtu kama Spence anafanya, Na hajawahi kukabiliwa na mpiganaji katika hali yake ya kwanza kama Brook. Kwa kweli ni mtihani kwake na hatua kubwa katika mashindano. Ikiwa yuko tayari, Anaweza kuifanya. Lazima aende huko na abaki umakini.

 

“Mgawanyiko wa Welterweight ndio mgawanyiko bora katika ndondi. Bado ninahisi kama mimi ni mmoja wa welterweights bora ulimwenguni hata ingawa nilikuja mfupi. Sikuwahi kufikiria nitasema hasara itanifanya niwe na nguvu kwa sababu sikujiona nikipoteza. Nataka majina yangu yarudi na kuonekana kama bora katika mgawanyiko bora.”

 

Shawn Porter - Bingwa wa zamani wa Welterweight & WBC ya sasa hapana. 1 Mshindani

"Nimefurahi Errol ni kupata kichwa chake, Ninafurahi kuwa anaenda England kwa hiyo. Mimi ni wazi kuwa ninavuta Amerika. Errol ni mwanariadha wa ajabu na boxer mzuri. Nadhani yuko tayari kuonyesha ulimwengu kitu, Lakini Kell yuko hapo juu kwenye tier ya juu ya welterweights. Watu ambao huingia wanapaswa kufurahi. Najua ninatarajia.

 

"Mgawanyiko wa welterweight ni wa kushangaza, juu hadi chini. Tuko sawa ambapo tunahitaji kuwa na tunapaswa kuwa. Ndondi kurudi nyuma kwa masheikh na PBC ilikuja wakati mzuri kwangu na wengine wa wapenzi wa juu. Kuna wengi wetu wenye uwezo wa kushinda taji hivi sasa. "

 

Lamont Peterson - WBA (Mara kwa mara) Bingwa wa Dunia wa Welterweight

"Hii itakuwa vita ngumu, Lakini nadhani Errol anapaswa kushinda. Angalau ninavuta Errol kushinda. Lazima aondoe wazo kwamba labda kutakuwa na 30,000 watu wakicheka dhidi yake, Kwa hivyo lazima aonyeshe majaji kwamba anastahili kushinda.

 

“Brook ni mpiganaji mzuri na ataleta bora yake, Lakini nadhani Errol, Mwishowe, ndiye mpiganaji bora. Lakini atalazimika kudhibitisha.

 

“Mgawanyiko wa Welterweight ni moja wapo bora katika ndondi hivi sasa. Tunayo wapiganaji wengi wazuri katika hali yao kuu kufanya mgawanyiko uwe na nguvu. Na watu wako tayari kupigana. Tunaona aina ya mapigano ambayo mashabiki wanataka kuona. Ikiwa hii inaendelea inaweza kurudisha ndondi mahali palipokuwa katika siku ambazo sukari Ray Leonard, Roberto Duran, Thomas Hearns na Marvin Hagler wote walipigana kila mmoja. Kwa hivyo ni nzuri kwa ndondi hivi sasa.”

Showtime CHAMPIONSHIP ndondi® Live From Bramall Lane In Sheffield, England

 

Kell Brook will defend his IBF World Welterweight title against U.S. star Errol Spence at Bramall Lane in Sheffield on Saturday May 27, live on Sky Sports Box Office and live on SHOWTIME in the U.S. on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING.

 

Brook makes the fourth defense of his beloved IBF strap he landed in the U.S. Agosti 2014 with a career-best win over Shawn Porter. He then blitzed Jo Jo Dan, Frankie Gavin and Kevin Bizier before stepping up to middleweight to face fearsome Kazakh Gennady Golovkin at The O2 in September. Sasa, the Sheffield star welcomes another unbeaten superstar into the ring.

 

Undefeated Spence became the mandatory challenger for Brook’s belt when he blasted Leonard Bundu inside six rounds in August, the eighth straight stoppage win for the Texas-based New Yorker who destroyed Chris Algieri inside four rounds two months earlier.

 

Brook and Spence now clash in one of the biggest fight in the 147-pound division, and the elite pairing are promising to deliver an electric night at the home of Sheffield United FC.

 

“I’m so excited about this fight and also about making history in my city,"Alisema Brook. “It’s long been a dream of mine to fight outdoors at Bramall Lane and I’m pleased to do that in the biggest fight in the welterweight division. I saw many people talk about how I would avoid Errol Spence – they don’t know me, they don’t know what I’m about. All I’ve ever wanted to do is to give the fans the fights they want and they have it right here on Mei 27. I’m going to show the world that I’m the best welterweight on the planet and I’m going to do it right before my people’s eyes.”

 

“I’m happy I’m finally getting an opportunity to accomplish a lifelong dream of becoming a world champion,"Alisema Spence. “I feel that this is one of the best and biggest fights in world boxing and I am 100 percent focused and determined to bring the belt back home to the U.S. On Mei 27, I will be more than ready.”

 

“This is one of the best fights in world boxing,” said Brook’s promoter Eddie Hearn. “Many believed that Kell Brook would look to avoid Errol Spence but he is a proud man who never ducks a challenge. Coming off the fight with GGG this is an extremely tough fight to come back to but I believe Kell Brook is the best welterweight in the world and he will have the chance to prove it on Mei 27. It’s ‘The Special One’ vs ‘The Truth’, a historic event at Sheffield United’s Bramall Lane – we are planning an unforgettable night.”

 

“This is great news for Kell and Sheffield United,” said Sheffield United director Scott McCabe. “We have been working with Matchroom for some time to bring this high profile fight to our Bramall Lane stadium where we have exciting plans to stage further significant events utilising the high standard facilities that have been developed by the Club in recent years.”

 

Tickets will go on sale to Matchroom Fight Pass members at 10 a.m. juu ya Alhamisi, Machi 30 via StubHub.

 

Tickets go on general sale at 10 a.m. juu ya Ijumaa, Machi 31 via the Sheffield United FC Box Office.
