LOS ANGELES (Noyabr 27, 2018) – As fight week in Los Angles kicks off, heavyweights of the past and present have spoken, and the majority believe Deontay Wilder’s pure punching power will be enough to defeat the highly-skilled Tyson Fury Şənbə günü, Dekabr 1 SHOWTIME PPV-də®.

Here is what the current and former heavyweight greats had to say about the Wilder vs. Fury matchup:
MIKE TYSON:
“Although Wilder’s punch is strong, nothing can compare to the mental strength Fury has shown both in and out of the ring. It’ll be a close call, but I think Fury’s got a true fighting chance.”
EVANDER HOLYFIELD:
“Bu, böyük bir mübarizə var. Fury’s got a lot of skills, he’s awkward and he has long arms. He has good reflexes and is a strong counter-puncher. Deontay needs to be first and he can’t wait on Tyson. Tyson’s always been the bigger fighter. In fighting Deontay it’s the same case. If things get difficult, o (Qəzəb) got more experience and a lot of tricks. I think with Deontay’s power, he might be able to end it early, but if Tyson can frustrate him and it goes the distance, then it could go his way.”
LENNOX LEWIS:
“If it goes the distance then it belongs to Tyson Fury. If it’s a short fight it will belong to Deontay Wilder. This is an epic and most-unpredictable showdown. I can’t wait for this fight.”
GEORGE FOREMAN:
“I am a big fan of Deontay Wilder and I was impressed with Tyson Fury and how he avoided the big shots against Wladimir Klitschko. I can see him going 12 rounds with Wilder because of his height and reach.
“The great thing about this fight is that we’re all talking about it. I think Wilder wins a close decision.”
Riddick bowe:
“If Wilder comes out and means business then he should beat Fury with ease. My prediction is Wilder by knockout!”
Gerry Cooney:
“Deontay Wilder vs. Tyson Fury is a very interesting fight. I love Tyson Fury. I think he’s a remarkable self-promoter, and he did a great job with Wladimir Klitschko, using his feints and throwing Klitschko off his game plan. Deontay is a different kind of fighter, baxmayaraq ki. Fury fights at 30 saatda mil. Deontay fights at 100 saatda mil. Belə, when Deontay catches Fury and gets ahold of him I think it’s going to be over. I admire Fury, but I think he’s barking up the wrong tree with this fight. I think the bottom line is that Deontay is a whole different type of beast. He comes in aggressive and finishes his opponents. I hate to pick, but somebody has to lose. I’m picking Deontay by knockout and I think it ends inside of four or five rounds.”
LUIS ORTIZ
“If Fury decides he wants to dip and dive and move, then he can extend the fight. But it’s all up to Wilder. If Fury decides he wants to come to the middle of the ring and fight, then it’s going to be over quick. Wilder is going to catch him. Proqnozlaşdırılması: Wilder by KO.”
Chris Arreola:
“I think Wilder fighting Ortiz and now Fury back-to-back gives the fans exciting fights. I like both Wilder and Fury, but for this fight I am leaning slightly toward Wilder to win.”

Və knockdowns olmayıb, Arxa və Forth Blockbuster heç vaxt hərəkət etməmiş və Barclays Center Tarixində ikinci ən yüksək qatıldı Boks tədbirində daimi alqışlanmadı.
“Geniş bir mübarizə üçün Shawn Porter-ə təşəkkür edirəm. Böyük bir döyüşçüdir,"Dedi Thurman. "Müdafiə qələbənin açarıdır. O, puçlarını çox yumruqlayır və hakimlərin qol vurmasını çətinləşdirir. Onu aydın şəkildə silkələyə bildim, Effektiv zərbələr və bu gün fərq olduğunu düşünürəm.
"Mən ona bir cavab verərdim. Böyük mübarizə idi. Böyük bir rəqib idi. Hər kəs bu günə qədər ən sərt rəqibim olacağını söyləyirdi. Mən onu ata bilmədim, amma bir neçə dəfə onu qucaqladım. "

"Çox çalışdıq, Keith əla çempiondur,"Porter dedi. "Atam deyir ki, başınızı yuxarı tutacaq. Düşünürəm ki, mübarizəni qazandım, Ancaq rəqibin çıxdığı üçün razıyam bu axşam.
“Bizə bu REVATCH lazımdır. Azarkeşlərin bu Rematch istədiklərini bilirəm. Mənə başqa bir şans verərsə, Üzükdə çox çalışacağam və başlığı ilə ayrılacağam.”
CBB telekanasının açılışı, məğlubedilməz super qaynaq çəkilərinin uyğunluğu göstərdi Jarrett Hurd Yığılmış 154 kiloluq sinifdə perspektivi qanuni rəqibinə qədər bitirdi 10ci dəyirmi tko üzərində Oscar Molina.
Hurd (18-0, 12 Kos) erkən işə getdi, Güclü bir coundcut ilə açılış turunda ilk dəfə olaraq mərtəbə molina. Daha böyük və hündür Hurd başlanğıcdan daha aktiv döyüşçü idi, Əvvəllər içəridə təsirli bir oyun içəridə təsirli olan Meksika Olympianın sökülməsi. Hurd təxminən atdı 750 yumruqlamaq 10 el, yalnız ilə müqayisədə 376 Molina üçün, birləşdirən 220 Təxminən bir-birinə güc atışları 40 Faiz klipi.

“Bu, mütləq karyeram üçün böyük bir qələbədir,Hurd dedi. "Çox çəkilişlər aparırdı, Ancaq sağ qalmağı bilirdi. Onu birinci yerə vuran böyük bir yuxarı idi. İnsanlar son mübarizəmdən bilirlər ki, böyük bir sağ povercut var. Bir-iki dəfə inciyirdi. Məncə pis bir dayanma olduğunu düşünmürəm. Molina, yalnız gəlməyə davam edən çox sərt bir oğlandır.
“Bu döyüş burada məni bölmədəki ən yaxşı rəqibləri ilə qoyur. Üç və ya dörd raund gedə biləcəyim kimi hiss etdim. Döyüş davam etdiyi üçün gücləndim. Yenidən oraya girə biləcəyimiz üçün idman salonuna qayıdırıq.”
Molina (13-1-1, 10 Kos) etirazlı, Ancaq təəccüblü bir nokaut qadağan etmək, onun karyerasının ilk itkisini yekdil bir qərar yolu ilə bir neçə saniyə uzaqlaşdırdı.
“Hurduncu turda çox yumruq atdığını hiss etdim, amma həqiqətən mənə zərər vermədilər,"Molina dedi. "O, məşğul idi, amma əsla məni incitməmişdi.
"Mən aşağı getdim və başımın aşağı düşdüm və o, ilk turda məni tutdu. Məni gözləmirdim, amma mütləq bir flash knockdown idi. Zərər çəkmirdim.
“Ayaq işimdən daha çox istifadə etməli idim, amma çəkilişlərimi incitdim. Çox əyilməklə yöndəmsiz bir müdafiə idi və bir ritmə girə bilmədim.
“Bu mənim üçün böyük bir fürsət idi və mən yaxşı bir mübarizə apardığım kimi hiss etdim. Güclü qayıdacağam. Bir çox şey üzərində işləyəcəyik və orada geri qayıdırıq.”

Aşağıda Joshua'dan sitatlar sonra Şənbə günkü Showtime boksu beynəlxalq səviyyəsində qazanın:
Bir çoxu Dominik Breazeale'nin güc və sürətinizə qədər dayana bilməyəcəyini düşünürdü, Ancaq boks bacarıqlarınızdan bir az daha çox işləmək imkanı üçün minnətdarsınız??
"Yaxşı, Çətindir, çünki hər vuruşda incitdiklərini görə bilərsiniz – yaxşı hər vuruş deyil – Ancaq onları flush tutmağa başlayanda, Bu on unsiya əlcəyi ilə görüntüləri hiss edə bilərlər. Belə, Sadəcə vaxt məsələsidir, Ancaq bu müddətdə geri dönərkən Haymakers almaq istəmədim.
"Son mübarizəmdən sonra iki həftəlik istirahətim var idi, və sıx olduğu üçün birbaşa idman salonuna qayıtdı. Bir dəfə gözəl bir az fasilə alıram və sonra doldurulmuş batareyalarla geri qayıda bilərəm.”
Deonay Wilder'in mübarizəni seyr etdiyini bilirik. Onun üçün bir mesaj varmı?, WBC çempionu?
“İnanılmaz ilham verən şəxs. Səbirli idi, 30-tək döyüşlər [və] əllərini WBC-yə aldı [kəmər]. Kostyumun ardınca gedirəm. Mən U.S-ə yolum var. şou vaxtı məni də dəstəkləyir. Belə, Bunu izlədi.
“Bundan götürmək istədiyini ala bilər, Ancaq bir-biri ilə üzükdə olanda bu qədər fərqlidir. Beləliklə, bir gün bir-birinin nə ilə əlaqəli olduğunu yaşayacağıq.”
Növbəti kimlə mübarizə aparmaq istəyirsən?
“Yaxşı düşünürəm ki, bəyənmələri olmalıdır [Joseph] Parker. Mən həqiqətən qəzəbli baxırdım ... Ümid edirəm ki, tezliklə yaxşılaşır. Təəssüf ki, ayaq biləyini incitdi, hər şey yaxşı keçsə, qışda bir müddət almağa ümid etdiyim üçün təxirə salındı 9 iyul Etdiyi kimibu axşam, Ancaq bu vaxt və bu vaxt yenidən planlaşdırmalıyıq, Parker kimi digər rəqiblərə baxa bilərik, Vakant olsa, ya da insanların istədiyi hər kəs.”
Sizcə, hələ də işləməyiniz lazım olduğunu düşünürsünüz?

Below is what the fighters had to say at the final press conference, followed by some recent fight week quotes. (Courtesy Sky Sports and Matchroom Sport)
ANTHONYJOSHUA:
“You’re in my jungle now. Mənə heç bir təzyiq yoxdur.
“Once that bell goes, you can’t hide the instinct, the instinct that you want to get someone out of there. I hope I can go in there, stay relaxed and do what I planned to do. But once that bell rings something just comes over you and you want to get him out of there ASAP.
“There will always be pressure. But look, it’s always been the same concept: Train hard – it’s the same ring. It hasn’t changed.
“I’ve got nothing to lose. I’ve always explained let’s get rid of the belts, the atmosphere, because when the bell goes it’s just me and him in the ring. Two gladiators, two respectful warriors coming together. We’re going to slug it out and put our 0s on the line.”
“I’m prepared, Dominic is prepared well, and one of us has to take a loss.
“Each fight is a stepping stone to the big tests. I want to look like the real deal.”
“I think we’re in the golden era of boxing again.”
DOMINIC BREAZEALE:
“I respect you as a fighter, but I’m going to beat you. I’ve got to beat the best of the best.”
“Mən gözləyin bilməz, it’s been an opportunity I’ve been waiting eight years for this. It’s an opportunity of a lifetime and I’m ready for this.
“Atəşfəşanlıq gözləyirik. We’ll be going round for round, punch for punch and I expect to knock out Joshua.”
“I got a big right hand, I have a big left hook. I stand 6-foot-7, 255 manat. I’m unorthodox – I’m a guy that can fight on the inside, I’m a guy that can take a punch, I’m a guy that can give a punch. So if any one of those given things show up Şənbə günü night I’m getting a knockout, yəqin.
“It’s a major advantage just for me to have Anthony Joshua the whole time. I don’t want him at any given point for him to feel like he’s in his comfort zone, his own backyard or his own little lion’s den.
“That’s what I came across the pond to do. I came across the pond to get my belt and take it back home with me.
“It’s my Super Bowl. Being a former football player, this is my Super Bowl.”
“Everybody keeps comparing me to Charles Martin, the only thing that we have in common is that we’re both American. We have a completely different fight style, different goals in life.
“I’m a big puncher, so is Anthony Joshua. He has the belt and I intend to have it Şənbə günü gecə.
ADDITIONAL FIGHT WEEK QUOTES:
Antony joshua
"Mən 16 döyüşlərdə, 16 qalibiyyət, Dominic is 17 döyüşlərdə, 17 qalibiyyət. We’ve been pro for the same amount of time, amateurs for the same time so we’re at a similar level on paper.
“People think this will end in two rounds? Brilliant. I am winning fights early because of my talent and hard work. Where I am in my career, it’s a perfect fight.
“I don’t overlook anyone. People talk and talk, that’s irrelevant. It’s all about whether he can fight. I think he believes in himself, but he knows what’s in store here, he needs to know I’m serious about this boxing. He thinks he’s going to KO me, he’s dismissed Charles Martin — sometimes you just have to humble somebody and show levels, let them know it’s not that easy.
“The second I stepped in to the pros it was ‘Boom!" — Anthony Joshua – headlining. That’s not down to me, its media channels and people wanting to get to know the guy behind the gloves. So it’s been hard to build a career at the right pace without criticism because people want to see me in massive fights right now.
“You can’t jump from hero to zero, there are people guiding us over a long and a dangerous career. People have to understand that it’s a development of a career, and if I ever train a fighter, I’ll tell them the same thing.”
On fellow heavyweight world champions Deontay Wilder and Tyson Fury:
“This won’t be my only defense, I want there to be lots and lots, and at the right time I will fight David Haye, Tyson Fury, Deontay Wilder and the rest. We’re in an era now where we have to fight each other. There’s never been an era when the best don’t fight the best at heavyweight — but they have to happen at the right time, and they will.
“We are all world champions as we hold all the belts that are available. We’re all talented. Deontay has defended his title multiple times so you have to give him credit for that. Tyson and I haven’t defended yet, so I put Deontay at the top. But Tyson beat Wladimir Klitschko who reigned for such a long time.
“I am happy because I became a world champion in my 16th fight and they won theirs later in their careers. But Tyson beat the main man in the division, and Deontay has defended his belt lots of times, so I am in third right now, but I am building my way up.
“Put the belts to one side, they don’t give you magical powers. A lot of fighters lose their belt in their first defense. It’s about developing your raw talent and making sure you keep on an upward curve because there’s hungry young challengers snapping at your heels all the time, ready to expose you – and I refuse that to happen to me.”
On Charles Martin:
“Before the fight, no one criticized (Charles) Martin. He was undefeated, knocking guys out, tall southpaw, təhlükəli. Bookies were taking a lot of bets on him knocking me out. Tyson Fury backed him to do just that and a lot of people thought it would be tricky. Up until I beat him, he was seen as a worthy fighter. I figured him out quickly and I made him look bad. He didn’t look like the champion people thought he was, but you have to respect him.”
On thinking about losing:
“I think about losing all the time, I’m scared of it. That keeps me humble and working hard. I don’t think people are going to beat me or anything, but I don’t want to lose, and I know that if I work hard and keep improving, I won’t lose.
“I get enough attention from this job. Var 20,000 fans at the fights, millions watching on TV around the world. I don’t need to seek attention. I’m not a trash talker because the fists do the talking.’’
On being a role model:
“I know that there are a lot of kids watching me now and their parents say ‘my son loves you’ and that’s in my mind.
“I’ll be myself all the time, but that sense of being a role model and having kid’s look up to you, that checks the emotions that could come out if you get wound up. You have to conduct yourself.’’
On Tyson Fury:
“Tyson talks a lot. I hear so many different things, if he was consistent with what he says then maybe I’d think he was digging a bit, but it’s just water off a duck’s back. I don’t know him, but as long as people are saying ‘when are you going to fight him?’ then I like him because he is relevant.
“It would be such a huge fight and one that would be part of my legacy. I think because he’s beaten Wladimir once he can do it again. I didn’t think he’d win the first fight, but he pulled it off.
“I’d love to fight Tyson – it’s a match-up that needs to happen. There have been talks, whether they are a quick chat or serious negotiations, but you can’t click your fingers and come up with a mega fight. It takes time, but they are in the pipeline and we’re building towards them, and in the meantime I want to test myself and learn my craft. I need to perform well to prove that I can handle the massive fights.’’
On fellow British heavyweight David Haye:
“David is running the show and people know it, so when he goes in against soft opponents, he’s putting his neck on the line to get the stick. Fans expect more from him and he’s not meeting those levels, and that’s where the backlash comes from. The people he’s calling out versus the two guys he has fought, they just don’t add up, and that’s what people are frustrated about.
“I don’t think you can knock the Shannon Briggs fight. He’s made a lot of noise, he’s old school and it’s a good fight for David to take, win and move upwards. Shannon had made noise and he’s got his moment and who knows? Maybe he can shock the world. He’s old, but he trains hard and he’s in great condition, and that’s why people love the heavyweights because it’s that one shot.
“A fight with Fury and I is the biggest fight in British boxing in my opinion. The Haye fight is big too; there’s enough media interest for it to be big. It’s already big and we’re not even fighting yet, so imagine how big it would be once we get in there. It’d be unbelievable and that’s why I am so interested in the fights.”
DOMINIC BREAZEALE:
“I plan on putting on some extreme pressure and taking Joshua to places he’s never been. We’ll find out if he can handle it.
“Do I want to see him go into uncharted territory? Əlbəttə, bir şübhə olmadan.
“I’ve been there, I know what it feels like and I’ve done it several times now. Eyni zamanda, I’m not going to let an opportunity pass me. If I see something I can take in the first or second round, I’m definitely going to get him out of there.
“I’ve sparred guys that are bigger than me, I’ve sparred some guys smaller than me. I’ve been the tallest thus far (peşə opponentlər), but I don’t think the difference in a matter of inches is going to make that big of a difference. The guys I’ve sparred with are 10 times better than Anthony Joshua.
“I think that it’s going to be one of those situations that it is not going to be a difference of size or weight. It’s going to be the difference of skill and experience.
“When you think of a heavyweight champion you want to make sure he’s fought the best, and I think that’s why Joshua has chosen me as his opponent to defend against. That’s what he plans on getting out of the situation if he can make it through the 12 el.
“I think Joshua’s thinking of me as a stepping stone and he’s going to be sorry about that. He’s just wrong. He’s fighting a guy at 6-foot-7, 255 pounds that brings the pressure and a great pace from round-to-round.
“I’m one of those guys that I might take a shot, I might work some defense or I might work a strong jab. Ya yol, I’m going to make it a fight. All of my opponents have been down on the canvas and I don’t think Joshua is going to come shy of that as well.
“I’ve been picked as the smaller guy in the ring, by the IBF as a stepping stone and I feel like my back is against the wall. I’m going to come out fighting.
“To come here and win the IBF title in London is a major thing for me that I plan to achieve. Then I want to continuing to go after all the titles.
“My mind set has definitely changed. The situation that I’m in mentally is just different compared to some of my fights in the past. My confidence level is through the roof and physically I feel great.
“I think the heavyweight division is getting ready to change. With individuals like myself, Deontay and Tyson, we have guys who are characters who bring a lot of charisma to the division. That’s something that we need. Bəli, we are athletes but in the end we are entertainers and we want to see a show. I’m the type of guy that brings a show every single time I fight. It’s action-packed from the opening bell to the end, and fight fans are looking for that. That’s what is going to resurrect the heavyweight division.’’
On his win over Amir Mansour:
“That was another confidence booster for me. It’s one thing to finish a guy in the first round with three punches or something like that. It’s another thing to finish a guy in the sixth, seventh round with a combination of shots.
“Amir put me down on the canvas in the second, I battled back and ended up breaking the man’s jaw.
“It gives me something to work on. I know I was able to come back and be very successful from it. Anytime you get a win of that matter where you get a guy, break him down, break him down where he quits on the stool, it’s a huge confidence booster. It makes you understand as an athlete or as a professional boxer that you’ve got punching power, you just broke another man’s jaw.’’
On returning to London after the 2012 Olimpiya:
“I think it’s going to beautiful. It’s going to be great to go back to where my amateur career ended and beat the guy who won the gold medal. That’s going to be great. Daha sonra, on top of that, take away more hardware with the IBF Heavyweight title. You couldn’t ask for anything better.
“Then again I do understand and believe I’m a completely different fighter — not only am I a professional but I no longer fight an amateur style. I would consider myself a knockout artist with some pretty good punching power and that’s what I plan on showing the UK fans and my U.S. following. It’s a chapter that needs to be closed and I plan on doing that.’’
On the state of the heavyweight division:
“I believe that we’ve got a lot of heavyweights who are doing real well and are real successful in their situations, some being titleholders, some not. But I think it’s going to be a revolving circle. Me fighting Anthony Joshua, then going on to Deontay and Fury, Wladimir Klitschko might even hang around for a while. Will it ever be compared to the Ali days or Riddick Bowe and the Evander Holyfield days? Bilmirəm. Bowe and Holyfield had one great trilogy and I study it all the time. So it all depends on how much each fighter has left in him.’’

From The O2 in London
NEW YORK (İyun 20, 2016) – Undefeated IBF Heavyweight World Champion Anthony Joshua (16-0, 16 Kos) will make the first defense of his title against fellow unbeaten Dominic Breazeale (17-0, 15 Kos) of Upland, Calif., buŞənbə, İyun 25 haqqında SHOWTIME BOKS INTERNATIONAL® etibarən O2London, yaşayır SHOWTIME® on at 5:15 dək. VƏ/2:15 dək. PT.
Just a few hours later in Primetime on CBS (9 dək. VƏ/6 dək. PT), Keyt "bir dəfə" Thurman will defend his WBA Welterweight World Title against former champ Shawn “Showtime” Porter in a welterweight blockbuster that headlines SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOKS haqqında CBS, Premyer Boks Çempionları tərəfindən təqdim edildi.
Both Joshua and Breazeale participated in an international media conference call bazar ertəsi. Also taking part were Stephen Espinoza, Ümumi Müdir Köməkçisi və SHOWTIME İdman Baş direktoru; Eddie Hearn, Managing Director of Matchroom Sport and Brittany Goossen of TGB Promotions introducing Breazeale.
Below are highlights of what the principals had to say on the conference call. A full transcript will be available in the coming days.
Antony joshua
Thoughts on his preparation for the fight:
“I feel great condition wise, and mentally I’m in a good place. I’ve never felt so relaxed because I just know I’m capable of doing it. I’ve trained weeks and years and it’s just about getting it right on the night of the fight. My tactics and my mind have not let me down so far, so that’s why I don’t want to change anything.
“I’m not putting too much pressure on myself. I’m going to attack the fight the same way I have my last 16 and put on an explosive show. That’s what the Americans love. They like knockouts and I won’t let them down.
“Every fight can be my last fight. As much as I would like to tell you I’m confident and ‘I’m going to do this, I’m going to do that’ I do understand I have to approach this as if it could be my last fight.
“I know he can hang around, he doesn’t go down easy. He’s a big guy, he can eat shots. The Dominic Breazeale I’m used to watching on YouTube and I’m reading about is the enhanced Dominic Breazeale – the Dominic Breazeale that is 50 percent better because I think he knows he wants to come prove himself on a global stage. And this is his chance come Şənbə, so I need to prepare for the best of Breazeale.”
On going from being the hunter as a challenger to being the hunted as a champion:
“I’m not the cream of the crop in the gym. I’m around guys that are achieving things on the same level so I’m still hunting. I still have that mentality as if I’m a main killer in the jungle. I haven’t lost that hunger.
On potential to fight in the US in the future:
“I just keep on hearing the United States is where it’s happening. And if I come to the U.S., I’m going to shut it down.”
Thoughts on Breazeale’s performance against Amir Mansour:
“He’s a tough guy. He managed to go out there and break Mansour’s jaw and capture a win, which has led him into where he is now. Whichever angels were floating in the ring with him that day have led him to this point, so I’ve got to put an end to his dream.”
On winning a piece of the heavyweight championship in just his 16ci Pro mübarizə:
“It didn’t mean much. I still have another couple titles I need to get my hands on. I’m still hunting. There’s still work to be done. So it only ticked one of the boxes on my to-do list.”
DOMINIC BREAZEALE
“I’m out here very excited. I can’t wait to get in the ring İyun 25 and shock the world, əmin üçün. I’ve been lucky enough to prepare for the biggest fight of my life and I’m really super excited about it.”
On why he thinks he was selected for this matchup:
"Dürüst, the way I see it is that someone didn’t do their research. They didn’t look deep enough. They didn’t find out enough about me and maybe they’re looking at me as just another football player that transitioned into boxing. And I’m hoping they’re overlooking me. It definitely can be a situation where they’re just watching one fight, especially my last fight. But there’s been a lot of tough ones. If they’re looking at that one situation, I’m glad because that’s to my liking.”
On his feelings about fighting overseas:
“The way I’m thinking about it is, İyun 25, I gain 20,000 azarkeşləri. I’m in a situation where I’m very confident going into this fight and I know for sure I’m going to put on a great show, come out victorious and go back to the U.S. ilə 20,000 UK fans.
“I definitely believe [Joshua] realizes; he understands that he’s got a big test in front of him. He’s got a big fighter in front of him. He’s got a guy that’s going to break him down, test his will and see if he is a true champion.
“I am coming into this fight very confident and I’ve got some things that I know are going to work for me, as well as some things that I plan on exploiting out of Joshua.
“I’m blessed to have been picked for this fight and am thankful for this opportunity. Buna baxdığım tərz, and the way I look at every fight that I go into, is that as long as I do everything that I need to do in the gym as far as sparring, preparation and training, running my miles, sleeping right and eating right – I’ve crossed all of my T’s and dotted all of my I’s. I’ve got nothing to worry about. I’ve got nothing to second-guess. I’ve done everything I’m supposed to and I just can’t wait to shine.”
STEPHEN Espinoza, Müdir Köməkçisi və baş direktoru, SHOWTIME İdman
“Anthony quickly went from a diamond in the rough to really one of the foremost stars in the UK and Europe, and we are happy to be his partner as he establishes his presence in North America.
“We are particularly excited about this bout because we have, pardon the phraseology, two behemoths. There are two skilled boxers, really the epitome of what heavyweight boxing should be – böyük, strong athletes skilled in their sport, with amateur pedigree, meeting on the afternoon here in the US, evening in the UK to determine who is the best fighter.”
EDDIE HEARN, Prezident, Matchroom Sport
“Over here, the feeling is that it’s going to be quite a routine defense, but Anthony hasn’t trained like that. He is not expecting that. He knows the background and roots of Dominic Breazeale. He knows his skill, and he knows how dangerous he can be and he knows how hungry he is as well. I think you’re going to get a different kind of fight than the Charles Martin fight. I think you’re going to get a guy that’s not afraid to let his hands go. He’s not going to wait and the sold out O2 Arena is going to be an electric place to be.”
“SHOWTIME is a deal we are very excited about. To link up with an American broadcaster for us was an obvious move, but it was a move we had to choose carefully. And I think we chose very, very well in SHOWTIME.”
BRITTANY GOOSSEN, TGB Promotions
“Over here in the U.S. we have gotten to see Dominic grow before our eyes. We know he is definitely capable of challenging for the world title. Şənbə günüwe expect him to be victorious and bring that back to America.”

Breazeale Challenges Joshua This Şənbə, İyun 25,
On SHOWTIME BOXING INTERNATIONAL Live on SHOWTIME®
From The O2 in London
NEW YORK (İyun 22, 2016) – Unbeaten WBC World Heavyweight Champion Deontay Wilder can’t pick a clear winner for bu şənbə gecə Anthony Joshua-Dominic Breazeale world title clash.
The undefeated IBF Heavyweight World Champion Joshua (16-0, 16 Kos) will make the first defense of his title against fellow unbeaten Dominic Breazeale(17-0, 15 Kos) of Upland, Calif., haqqında SHOWTIME BOKS INTERNATIONAL®etibarən O2 London, yaşayır SHOWTIME® at 5:15 dək. VƏ/2:15 dək. PT.
Just a few hours later in Primetime on CBS (9 dək. VƏ/6 dək. PT), Keyt "bir dəfə" Thurman will defend his WBA Welterweight World Title against former champ Shawn “Showtime” Porter in a welterweight blockbuster that headlines SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOKS haqqında CBS, Premyer Boks Çempionları tərəfindən təqdim edildi.
Wilder, who will be part of the in-studio SHOWTIME announce team covering the fight from New York City, is torn on who will triumph when Joshua makes the first defense of the world title he landed in April with a devastating second-round KO win over Charles Martin.
“I definitely see the fight as a 50-50,” said Wilder. “You’ve got two big heavyweights, and the challenger wants what the champion has, and the champion wants to keep what he has.
“It’s going to be interesting because we’ve seen Breazeale in a lot of wars. He’s almost been taken out by some of the smaller heavyweights. He’s been punched around, but he has always survived.
“We’ve seen Joshua (get) busted up as well, but he has kept his composure, and this fight is in his backyard amongst his people.
“I don’t put anything past Breazeale because he’s coming in hustlers’ territory. I think that it’ll be a good fight because of Breazeale – I think he really wants it.”
Wilder makes the fourth defense of his WBC strap on Iyul 16 against Chris Arreola in his hometown of Alabama. The 30-year-old says that Joshua will feel like a different fighter as he goes into his first fight as world champion – but that there’s now an even bigger target on his back.
“Once you’ve got that belt, you feel like ‘I’m the man,’ ” said Wilder. “After the first fight, that’s when you really feel confident. You really feel you’re the man, you’re the champ. You’re the ruler once you’ve had your first defense.
“For Joshua, this is his first title defense, so he should feel some kind of security about himself and confidence about himself. But he’s going to find out that to continue his career and defend that title, these guys aren’t going to lay down after one punch or after two punches.
“They’re going to keep taking punches, they’re going to keep getting knocked down and they’re going to keep getting up. This is for a world title. This can bring you out of poverty, you know what I mean? Bu səbəbdən, these challengers are hungry. That’s one of the things that I had to realize.
“I put myself in their position. When I was a challenger, I was hungry and I already had the mentality that ‘you’re going to really have to kill me or hurt me bad to get me out of this ring.’ So that’s the mentality that these challengers have.
“It’s going to be interesting when you have a guy with a big heart that really, really wants it and I think Breazeale really wants it. We’re going to see where his heart is. I can’t say what kind of heart he has, but we’re going to see.”
Breazeale is following compatriot Charles Martin into Joshua’s Greenwich home area. “It takes a lot of courage, will and heart to fight in someone’s backyard,"Uaylder dedi. “It takes someone that has confidence in themselves. And not to mention going to someone else’s country, because then the environment has completely changed. It’s a big difference and not a lot of guys are willing to travel outside of their country where they would be uncomfortable.
“Only a very few that really want to build their legacy, such as myself, will travel and have no problem. I don’t like to worry about judges or nothing. You go do what you have to do. That’s just my philosophy and mentality as a champion now. When you say the Heavyweight Champion of the World, that’s why this is tough, we travel all over the world.”
