BROOKLYN (Deireadh Fómhair. 14, 2017) – Heavyweight World Champion Deontay Wilder and Welterweight World Champions Keith Thurman and Errol Spence Jr. met with the media on Saturday at Barclays Center to discuss their upcoming bouts and expected 2018 campaigns.
Wilder will defend his WBC belt on Samhain. 4 against mandatory challenger Bermane Stiverne live on SHOWTIME from Barclays Center in a Premier Boxing Champions event. Thurman announced he expects to return in early 2018 in his first bout since unifying the division and subsequent surgery.
In news on Saturday, IBF Welterweight Champion Spence announced that he will make the first defense of his belt against former world champion Lamont Peterson in January 2018 on SHOWTIME on a date and site to be determined.
Below are flash quotes from the three fighters:
Deontay Wilder
What other heavyweight is doing what I do? What other heavyweight has power like me? I don’t have to put you out in punches in bunches. I don’t have to do that. One punch. Goodnight.
I’m happy that I’ve had time to calm down and think about things. I’m happy that I’m fighting Stiverne because he’s my mandatory. I can finally get him out the way so I’ll be a free man.
This is the story of my life. Every situation that I’m put in, I try to be optimistic about. It’s easy to appreciate the good. But when the bad comes, some people don’t know how to manage that.
I’m the most frustrated guy around. Ní féidir liom a thuiscint. The best are supposed to fight the best, ceart? I’ve always done that. I called (Wladimir) Klitschko out years ago.
People make so many excuses for my career. The one who is actually trying to make a legacy out of their career, he’s the only one that’s not complaining. The people who don’t have to get in the ring and endure this suffering are the ones that complaining.
Keith Thurman
I’m in the bounce-back stage. It won’t be long before I get back into the ring and hopefully my arm will be better than ever. We’re estimating I’ll be ready for a fight the first quarter of next year.
I look forward to continuing my legacy and dominating the welterweight division.
Everything happens for a reason. I’m 28-years-old and it doesn’t feel good to not be an active fighter while you’re in your prime.
I don’t think that I will take that level of a fight [against Shawn Porter] coming off my injury. I think we’re going to just get a welcome back fight. Throw the arm around, test it out, have an injury-free camp, take the momentum from that and we can possibly get in the ring with Shawn after that.
I look forward to that [potential] fight against Errol. I look forward to great competition and Errol is that. This is a fight that you guys have been talking about, you won’t stop talking about, and you should keep talking about it because when it goes down it will be one of the best fights of this generation.
Everybody knows there’s no Floyd Mayweather. There’s no Manny Pacquiao. Everybody thinks they know who the real champion is. But real talk is that the king of the welterweight division will manifest within one to two years.
“[Terence] Crawford has whacked up a lot of people, but he hasn’t whacked up a welterweight yet. He still needs to make himself relevant in this division. He’s a 140 curadh undisputed. He can come up to this weight division and fight anybody in the top 10 and he deserves that. But we are so flooded with talent he is going to have to make himself relevant at 147 before he gets his hands on us.
Errol Spence Jr.
“Tá mé sásta a bheith anseo, it’s been awhile. It’s finally time to defend my title, capture more titles and become the undisputed welterweight champion of the world. That’s what I’m ready to do next year.
“[Peterson] is somebody that I looked up to as an amateur. I sparred with him as an amateur and learned a lot from him. He’s one of my favorite fighters and is a guy that will fight anybody. I’ve never known him to duck a fight.
Lamont is a tricky fighter. He’s been around the block. He does a lot of cagey, veteran things. I’m looking to get experience in this fight. I’m still a young fighter.
Since I was 5-0, I’ve said I’d fight Keith Thurman or anybody in the top 5. He’s got to go through rehab, but I’m ready when he is. I’m always ready to fight the best.

Stiverne asked for it, so he’s going to get it,” A dúirt Wilder. “Whatever happens happens. Ask and you shall receive. I’m relieved to be getting my mandatory out of the way. At least now I won’t have to deal with that down the road.

Ina theannta sin, SHOWTIME will stream other undercard bouts, including what should be a competitive heavyweight title eliminator between top contenders Bermane Stiverne and Dominic Breazeale.
Adrian Granados is as tough as they come and while he may lack the name recognition of Porter, he should not be overlooked,” Dúirt Tom Brown, Uachtarán na Tionscnaimh TGB. “You look at his record and he has five losses, but those five losses are three split decisions and two majority decisions and the two draws that are split draws. This is another huge opportunity for him. Adrian feels he’s paid his dues and belongs in a fight of this magnitude.
The 10-round welterweight match against Granados will be Porter’s fourth fight at Barclays Center. Porter won the welterweight title in his debut at the arena with a unanimous decision over Devon Alexander on Dec. 7, 2013. He lost a narrow decision to unified welterweight champion Keith Thurman in a 2016 Fight of the Year candidate in Brooklyn, and scored a TKO victory against former welterweight champion Andre Berto in his last fight on Aibreán 22 in front of the Barclays Center faithful.
The 29-year-old Porter (27-2-1, 17 Kos), who was born in Akron, Ohio and now lives in Las Vegas, remains one of the top welterweights in the division and aims to secure another title shot with a strong performance against Granados.
To be fighting on an undercard for a Deontay Wilder fight is nothing short of excellent,” Said Porter. “I’m excited and looking forward to this opportunity. Against Granados I’m getting into the ring with someone who is very established as an amateur and a professional, has great skills and isn’t going to go in there and lay down. That’s always going to bring out the best in me, and that’s always going to create a very exciting match-up. I know that when I do what I’m planning to do, it’s going to be exciting, entertaining and fill the seats.
Adrian Granados (18-5-2, 12 Kos), de Chicago, is accustomed to tough assignments and is known for delivering exciting toe-to-toe action. The 28-year-old has been in with Felix Diaz, losing a close majority decision in 2014, and then unbeaten Amir Imam, whom he defeated by TKO in 2015 when Imam was the top contender at 140-pounds. Granados went punch for punch with Adrien Broner in his last match, but came up just short, losing a split decision in Broner’s hometown of Cincinnati on Feabhra. 18.
I’m very excited to be fighting one of the best welterweights in the world in Shawn Porter,” said Granados. “With our styles it’s going to be fireworks from the opening bell. I was getting ready for a fight in October but when this opportunity arose I jumped at it. It’s a tremendous card to be fighting on with the whole world watching and I’m looking to
put on a great performance.
The 28-year-old Sergey Lipinets (12-0, 10 Kos) is a former kickboxer from Russia who has been waiting nearly a year for his opportunity to fight for a world championship. Lipinets has only been the distance twice in his pro career and he earned his title shot with an eighth-round knockout of Lenny Zappavigna in a title eliminator last December. Ina tús is déanaí, Lipinets stopped Clarence Booth via third-round TKO in March at Barclays Center.
I feel very privileged to be in the position to fight for this world title,” said Lipinets. “I will prepare to face the best possible fighter on that night and I promise that I will not disappoint. The lights will be bright but I have trained too hard not to leave the ring as a world champion.
Akihiro Kondo (29-6-1, 16 Kos) will be making his U.S. debut and fighting for a world championship for the first time when he meets Lipinets for the 140-pound title. The 32-year-old Kondo, of Kazo, Saitama, An tSeapáin, has won eight straight matches, including five by stoppage. This will be his third fight this year after he stopped Komsan Polsan in March and defeated Yuya Okazaki by TKO in May.
Former world champion Bermane Stiverne (25-2-1, 21 Kos) is coming off a two-year absence from the ring. Stiverne, 38, became the first Haitian-born boxer to win the heavyweight title when he defeated Chris Arreola in May of 2014. He lost the title to Wilder by decision on January of 2015 i Las Vegas. In his last fight Stiverne, who moved from Canada and now resides in Las Vegas, Nev., defeated Derric Rossy via decision.

Seo an méid a bhí na rannpháirtithe a rá Dé Céadaoin:
DEONTAY WILDER
“Tá mé an fearr. Is mise an trommheáchan is deacra sa rannán. Tá mé an fear sa roinn. Is cuma liom cad atá ar siúl ag éinne eile. Caithfidh tú teacht tríom.
“Nuair a bhuaileann mé é, Ba mhaith liom mo mheas cuí. Is mise an t-aon laoch meáchain Meiriceánach ar domhan agus is mise an fear. Níl aon duine níos láidre go fisiciúil, meabhrach agus spioradálta. Tá faitíos orm go léir.
“Is mise an trommheáchan sa rannán a bhfuil fíor-chumhacht bainte amach agam. Chuir mé fir fásta síos go héasca. Ar Samhain 4, Tá Ortiz ag dul síos. Ina dhiaidh sin, tá a fhios agat cheana féin cé hé an chéad cheann eile. Táim réidh le haontú.
“Más é an boogeyman é, Ní féidir liom fanacht le solas a chur air mar níl an boogeyman éifeachtach ach san oíche. Agus táimid i Nua-Eabhrac ionas go mbeidh a fhios agat cheana féin cad a tharla do King Kong i Nua-Eabhrac.
“Tá an plean cluiche mar an gcéanna agus is gnách. Bainfimid úsáid as mo chuid tréithe. Tá mé chun é a shocrú suas go dtí go dtiocfaidh an t-am. Tá sraith scileanna iontach ag Ortiz agus is maith liom a stíl ionsaitheach. Sin ceann de na fáthanna a roghnaigh mé é. Theastaigh uaim é a bhualadh chun a chruthú gurb mise an fear.
“Is cinnte nach rachaidh sé an t-achar. Ceart anois, Táim ag smaoineamh ar thrí bhabhta ach tar 4ú Samhain, d'fhéadfadh sé a bheith sa chéad bhabhta.”
LUIS ORTIZ
“Táim réidh le dul agus ar bís don troid. Ba mhaith liom a fháil go Samhain 4 ionas gur féidir liom an méid atá le déanamh agam.
“Déanann Wilder go leor cainte. Tá sé neirbhíseach agus coinníonn sé i ndearmad dáta an troid. Sílim gur ghlac sé leis an troid seo mar níl aon rogha aige agus gan aon duine eile troid.
“Sílim go bhfuil Wilder chun rith sa troid seo. Ba chóir dó a bheith cúramach cad a deir sé roimh an troid, mar is dóigh liom go bhfuil sé chun rith uaim.
“Ba cheart do Wilder a phianbhreith báis a shíniú. Tá mé an-difriúil ná aon duine eile a throid sé. Punch mé níos deacra ná aon duine eile. Tá mé chun a mhúineadh dó gan praiseach a dhéanamh leis na Cúbaigh.
“Tá roinnt sceptics ag caint faoi mo aois, ach féach ar Mayweather. Tá mo luas agus mo ghasta fós agam.”
JAY DEAS, Comhbhainisteoir agus Traenálaí Wilder
“Tá ag éirí go maith le gach rud sa champa. An uair dheireanach a raibh muid anseo i Nua Eabhrac bhí slua iontach againn agus ba ócáid ​​iontach a bhí ann. Dúshlán níos mó fós a bheidh anseo. Seo an troid a theastaigh ón lucht leanúna agus seo an troid a theastaigh uainn.
“Ba mhian le Deontay i gcónaí na dúshláin is mó. Bhuaigh muid an crios i [Bermane] Baile dúchais Stiverne agus bhíomar réidh le dul go dtí an Rúis chun an crios a chosaint. Is iad seo dhá guys sa roinn nach mian le duine ar bith a throid, ach bheartaigh siad troid lena chéile.
“Is deis iontach í seo do Deontay a thaispeáint cé hé agus cá bhfuil sé. Is fiú go mór am gach duine a bheith ann ag Ionad Barclays.”
LOU DIBELLA, Uachtarán na DiBella Siamsaíocht
“Níl aon rud cosúil le troid mhór chraobh meáchain trom agus ar aghaidh 4ú Samhain, tá curadh mór ag dul a throid iomaitheoir mór. Is troid iontach é seo.
“Tá an troid seo ag tarlú mar tá Deontay Wilder ag iarraidh go mbeadh a fhios ag an domhan nach bhfuil eagla air roimh éinne, agus go bhfuil sé sásta troid le haon duine agus é ar an trommheáchan is fearr ar domhan inniu. Ní fhéadfainn a bheith níos bródúil as an troid seo a chur i gcrích.
“Is é seo an troid is deacra a d’fhéadfadh Deontay Wilder dul i mbun faoi láthair. Is é seo an comhraic is deacra a d'fhéadfadh sé troid b'fhéidir.
“Is é Luis Ortiz boogeyman na rannóige seo. Níor chuala tú éinne ag screadaíl faoi throid Luis Ortiz. Bhí ionadh ar go leor daoine nuair a chuala siad go bhfuil Deontay Wilder ag iarraidh dul i ngleic leis. Ní hamháin gur mhaith leis dul i ngleic leis, ach d’áitigh sé air.
“Ní curadh 43 bliain d’aois é seo ar a chosa deiridh i Luis Ortiz. Is beithíoch ocrach é seo atá ag iarraidh Deontay Wilder a bhualadh. Ach is curadh é Deontay. Níl sé seo á dhéanamh ar an airgead. Shílfeadh go leor daoine gur bogadh eacnamaíoch balbh é seo. Is bogadh oidhreachta é seo. Is bogadh é seo chun a chruthú cé hé an duine is fearr. Níl eagla orainn roimh Anthony Joshua. Dá mbeadh sé ar fáil ar 4ú Samhain agus theastaigh chun troid, bheimis ag troid leis ansin.”
STEPHEN Espinoza, Leas-Uachtarán Feidhmiúcháin & GM, Showtime Spóirt
“Ba bhliain an-láidir í seo do SHOWTIME Boxing. Is é seo an 23ú imeacht dornálaíochta beo a bheidh againn ar SHOWTIME i mbliana. Agus bhí siad tábhachtach, troideanna brí. Ní hamháin ainm mór i gcoinne aon duine. Go deimhin, 16 Amanna i mbliana ar SHOWTIME tá trodaire gan sárú againn i mbun trodaire eile gan buille.

Parker is a good fighter and I’ve no doubt we’ll both bring our A-game on fight night. I can’t wait to be crowned world champion.
Parker is the biggest challenge of my life and he will bring the very best out of me, but I aim to deliver a knockout performance. I’ve prepared like never-before for this fight and pushed myself to the limits and beyond. There’s no way Parker is leaving Manchester with that World title.
