نیویورک (ژوئن 30, 2016) – Undefeated heavyweight Jarrell میلر claims he’s America’s top heavyweight prospect. “Big Baby” will get a chance to back up his boast when he faces his toughest test to date in veteran فرد گربه در رویداد اصلی ShoBox: نسل جدید بر جمعه, اوت. 19.
The confident and hard-hitting Miller (17-0-1, 15 کوس) and the durable and vastly experienced Kassi (18-5-1, 10 کوس) will headline a tripleheader live on SHOWTIME در 10 p.m. و/PT from the outdoor soccer venue Rhinos Stadium in Rochester, N.Y..
Two undefeated young bantamweight prospects will square off in theShoBox co-feature as world-ranked نیکولای Potapov (14-0-1, 6 کوس) و آنتونیو NIEVES (16-0-1, 8 کوس) meet in a 10-round bantamweight bout.
در جلسه افتتاحیه این برنامه تلویزیونی, undefeated welterweight knockout artist بختیار Eyubov (10-0, 10 کوس) will face battle-tested veteran کریم میفیلد (19-3-1, 11 کوس) در یک مسابقه 10-دور.
Tickets for the event presented by Salita Promotions go on sale این جمعه در ظهر ET و در دسترس در می http://www.rhinossoccer.com/و HTTP://www.etix.com
“This is an amazing opportunity. I’m in the main event going against a tough opponent, and he’s definitely game to fight,” Miller said. “I’m ready to put his lights out like I do everybody else. I know he’s durable and a little older than me. He’s a tough guy and he can take a beating. تا حالا, he’s only been stopped once. I’ll be the second.
“I’m going back to basics in this camp. I’m an advanced fighter, but there are a couple of things I’ve wanted to work on. It’s easy for heavyweights to rely on power and forget about technique. You see what happened to Dominic Breazeale against Anthony Joshua? His power didn’t mean jack because there was no technique behind it. I want to be the kind of fighter who puts his technique first and power last.”
“I approach Jarrell like all young fighters,” Kassi said. “I’m a seasoned pro that has fought top-tier opponents. Jarrell will have to bring his ‘A game’ against me. He’s got size and power, but it’s nothing I haven’t seen. I’m tired of getting robbed by judges like in El Paso (against Chris Arreola), and in Alabama (against Dominic Breazeale). That should have been me fighting Anthony Joshua in The O2. در برابر (Hughie) خشم, the cut saved him. Another round or two and he would have been done. Then we heard what we always hear, ‘oh, Fury had a bad night, so did Breazeale, so did Arreola.’ They all seem to have ‘bad’ nights when I’m in the other corner. I’m hoping to actually get some credit when Miller has a ‘bad’ night too. I’m a heavyweight boxer, that’s boxer underlined. I move my feet, I use angles, I hit and don’t get hit. That’s boxing and it’s my art. Boxing fans are going to have a great time watching me dismantle a giant.”
“I am very happy to be back on SHOWTIME fighting the best opponent of my career,"ایوبوف گفت. “I know this will be my hardest fight to date and that’s what motivates me. I am grateful that I am getting an opportunity to prove myself and I want to show that I am ready for the best fighters in the world. I am ready for the boxing world to know my name. اوت 19, کریم میفیلد, here I come.”
“This will be a special event at Rochester Rhinos soccer stadium. We have America’s brightest heavyweight contender in Jarrell ‘Big Baby’ Miller and a knockout sensation out of Brooklyn by way of Kazakhstan in Bakhtiyar ‘Bakha’ Eyubov,”مروج دیمیتری Salita گفت:. “This show has all the ingredients to be one of the most talked about boxing events of the summer, and we think Miller has all the skills and charisma to break through in the heavyweight division. I am grateful to SHOWTIME and Rhinos Stadium that boxing fans will witness talented fighters in their toughest fights to date. I look forward to an explosive night of boxing.”
“Wendy and I are so excited to be hosting both SHOWTIME and the fighting debut of Jarrell ‘Big Baby’ Miller at Rhinos Stadium,گفت: " وندی و David Dworkin, owners of the Rochester Rhinos soccer stadium. "اوت 19 will be a great opportunity to showcase our stadium and the City of Rochester to a nationwide audience.”
The menacing Miller, a 6-foot-4 Brooklyn, N.Y.. بومی, is a consensus top 15 heavyweight – he’s ranked No. 8 در WBO, نکن. 9 در WBA و شماره. 14 در IBF. The 27-year-old former professional kickboxer has knocked out six consecutive opponents as he’s risen through the rankings as one of America’s top heavyweight hopes. Prior to Miller’s knockout of نیک Guivas بر مه 27, his previous two fights were onShoBox – a third round destruction of Akhror Muralimov last October and a knockout of داناون دنیس in January in which he was pushed to the seventh round for the first time.
Kassi has been in with some of the most recognizable names in the heavyweight division, محتوی امیر منصور, دومینیک Breazeale و هوگی فیوری. The 36-year-old fought to a disputed majority draw with three-time world title challenger کریس Arreola last July on PBC on CBS in which most ringside observers, محتوی ShoBox تحلیلگر استیو فرهود, had Kassi winning by a wide margin. The New Orleans resident has been stopped just once – in 2014 by Mansour – and stands as an excellent barometer for Miller’s progression as a legitimate contender.
The fast-rising Potapov, of Potolsk, روسیه, is ranked in the top 15 in three of the four sanctioning bodies (نکن. 7 WBO, نکن. 13 IBF, نکن. 14 WBA) بعد از فقط 15 دعوا حرفه ای. A former amateur standout with over 200 دعوا, the 25-year-old Potapov has already gone at least 10 rounds seven times since turning professional in 2010. The only blemish on his record is a draw with undefeated prospect Stephon جوان در آخرین مبارزه خود در آوریل 15 بر ShoBox.
Coincidently, the only blemish on آنتونیو NIEVES’ record is a 2015 draw with Stephon Young. The 29-year-old is coming off his first 10-round performance, a unanimous decision over then once-beaten اسکار Mojica در ماه ژوئن 18. The Cleveland, Ohio native will face his toughest opponent to date in fellow unbeaten Potapov in the matchup of unbeaten bantamweights.
The Brooklyn-based Eyubov has passed every test he’s faced, and knocked out all of his opponents in the process. The 29-year-old native of Kazakhstan is coming off an impressive third-round stoppage of veteran جارد رابینسون last January on ShoBox. Eyubov will step up his level of opposition when he faces Karim Mayfield, a 35-year-old veteran who owns wins over موریسیو هررا و استیو فوربس and has never been stopped in 23 دعوا.
بری تامپکینز خواهد تماس ShoBox عمل از کنار صحنه ورزش با استیو فرهود و قهرمان سابق جهان رائول مارکز به عنوان تحلیلگران خبره خدمت خواهند کرد. تهیه کننده اجرایی است گوردون تالار با غنی Gaughan تولید و ریک فیلیپس کارگردانی.

BROOKLYN (ژوئن 26, 2016) - مبارزه با جایزه به CBS بازگشت در روز شنبه با نامزد یک مبارزه از سال به عنوان قهرمان جهان در وزن سبک وزن بدون شکست کیت تورمن قهرمان سابق جهان لبه دار شاون پورتر در یک تصمیم نزدیک اما به اتفاق آرا 115-113 توسط هر سه قاضی حلقه ای.
The 12,718 طرفداران حاضر در مرکز بارکلیز در بروکلین و بینندگان سراسر ایالات متحده. تماشای اولین مسابقه بوکس پریمایتر در CBS از زمان محمد علی-لئون اسپینکس در 1978 بین دو تا از درخشان ترین ستاره های بخش جذاب بوکس به یک تنبل برخورد کردند.
تورمن (27-0, 22 کوس) و باربر (26-2-1, 16 کوس) ترکیبی برای پرتاب کردن 1200 مشت در مسابقات قهرمانی SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP در رویداد CBS, ارائه شده توسط برتر قهرمانان بوکس. مسابقه خیمه شب بازی یک داستان درمورد دقت و صحت بود. فعالیت, همانطور که تورمان فرود آمد 50 درصد از عکس های قدرت خود را, در مقایسه با 38 درصد برای پورتر, و 44 درصد مشت های کل او در مقایسه با فقط 36 درصد برای رقیب. در حالی که تورمان با درصد بیشتری به زمین نشست, پورتر مبارز شلوغ تری بود, پرتاب کردن 100 مشت های بیشتر در سراسر 12 دور.
"یک بار" و "شو تایم" به صورت تبلیغ شده تحویل داده می شوند, با شلیک کننده پرتاب قدرتمند Porter چندین بار, در حالی که پرتغال پر از هجوم و خسته کننده ، به جلو هول داد تا تورمن را در طناب اذیت کند. و در حالی که هیچ knockdown وجود ندارد, این فیلم موفق هرگز فاقد اقدام بود و با تشویق ایستادن در دومین مسابقه بوکس با حضور در بالاترین حد در تاریخ مرکز بارکلیز به اوج خود رسید..
“من می خواهم از شاون پورتر برای یک مبارزه فوق العاده تشکر کنم. او یک جنگجوی بزرگ است,”گفت تورمان. "دفاع کلید پیروزی است. او مشتهای خود را زیاد اذیت می کند و گل زدن را برای داوران دشوار می کند. من توانستم او را واضح تکان دهم, ضربات م effectiveثر و من معتقدم که این تفاوت امروز بود.
"من به او بازی برگشت خواهم داد. جنگ عالی بود. او حریف بزرگی بود. همه می گفتند آیا او سر سخت ترین حریف من تا به امروز است. من نتوانستم او را زمین بیندازم اما چند بار او را به هم زدم. "
قهرمان سابق جهان پورتر, یک نجیب زاده چند ساله اما کامل, از این که در پایان باخت دومین تصمیم نزدیک خود در یک عنوان قهرمانی شکایت نکرد.
"ما سخت کار کردیم, کیت یک قهرمان بزرگ است,"پورتر گفت. پدرم می گوید سرت را بالا نگه دار. من فکر می کنم من برنده مبارزه, اما من راضی هستم زیرا رقیب ظاهر شد امشب.
“ما به آن بازی برگشت نیاز داریم. می دانم هواداران آن بازی برگشت را می خواهند. اگر فرصت دیگری به من بدهد, من قصد دارم در رینگ سخت کار کنم و با عنوان او بروم.”
در دوره آغازین پخش تلویزیونی CBS ، یک مسابقه از وزنه برداران فوق العاده بدون شکست وجود داشت جارت هرد فارغ التحصیل از چشم انداز به یک رقیب قانونی در کلاس انباشته 154 پوند با یک سلطه 10هفتم دور TKO اسکار مولینا.
هرد (18-0, 12 کوس) زود کار کردم, برای اولین بار در کار حرفه ای خود در دور ابتدایی مولینا را با یک ضد ضربه قدرتمند به سمت راست درست کنید. هارد بزرگتر و بلندتر از همان ابتدا مبارز فعال تری بود, از بین بردن المپیک مکزیکی شکست ناپذیر با یک بازی کاملاً م insideثر در داخل. هورد تقریبا پرتاب کرد 750 مشت زدن 10 دور, در مقایسه با تنها 376 برای مولینا, اتصال در 220 تقریباً عکسهای قدرت 40 کلیپ درصد.
هرد مهره ای بر عملکرد خود در دور آخر گذاشت, بستن نمایش با فرود آمدن مولینا 33-7 در دور آخر. در حالی که مولینا در دقیقه آخر دور آخر یک ضرب و شتم وحشیانه انجام داد و به ظاهر بی دفاع بود, ریکی گونزالس وارد عمل شد تا مسابقه را متوقف کند 2:02.
“این قطعاً یک پیروزی بزرگ برای حرفه من است,"هرد گفت. "او عکسهای زیادی می گرفت, اما او می دانست چگونه زنده بماند. این یک قطعه بزرگ بود که او را در دور اول به زمین انداخت. مردم از آخرین مبارزه من می دانند که من بزرگترین قسمت برتر را دارم. او چند بار آسیب دید. فکر نمی کنم توقف بدی باشد. مولینا پسر بسیار سر سختی است که فقط مدام از راه می رسد.
“این مبارزه در اینجا من را با رقیبان برتر این بخش مقابله می کند. احساس می کردم می توانم سه چهار دور دیگر بروم. من هرچه دعوا بیشتر می شد ، قوت می گرفتم. ما در حال بازگشت به سالن بدنسازی هستیم تا بتوانیم دوباره وارد آنجا شویم.”
مولینا (13-1-1, 10 کوس) اعتراض کرد, اما با یک ناک اوت خیره کننده فقط چند ثانیه با متحمل شدن اولین ضرر در زندگی حرفه ای خود با تصمیم یکپارچه فاصله داشت.
“احساس کردم هورد مشت های زیادی را در دور دهم پرتاب می کند اما آنها واقعاً به من آسیب نمی رسانند,"مولینا گفت. "او مشغول کار بود اما واقعاً هرگز به من صدمه نمی زد.
"پایین رفتم و سرم را پایین انداختم و او در دور اول من را با آن اپراکت گرفت. او با شلیکی که انتظار نداشتم مرا به دست آورد اما قطعاً یک ضربه ناگهانی بود. صدمه ای ندیدم.
“قرار بود خیلی بیشتر از کارهای پا استفاده کنم اما در نهایت عکسهایم را خفه کردم. او یک دفاع ناجور داشت و خیلی خم می شد و من نمی توانستم وارد ریتم شوم.
“این یک فرصت بزرگ برای من بود و احساس می کردم که یک مبارزه خوب انجام داده ام. من قویتر برمیگردم. ما می خواهیم روی بسیاری از چیزها کار کنیم و دوباره به آنجا بازگردیم.”

اوایل شب در SHOWTIME, احساس سنگین وزن بدون شکست آنتونی جوشوا برای اولین بار با ناک اوت راند هفتم از دومینیک برازاله آمریکایی که قبلاً شکست ناپذیر بود در O2 لندن با موفقیت از قهرمانی IBF در مسابقات سنگین وزن جهان دفاع کرد. VIDEO: http://s.sho.com/28VGgsa
در زیر به نقل از جوشوا بعد از روز شنبه در SHOWTIME BOXING INTERNATIONAL برنده شوید:
بسیاری فکر می کردند که دومنیک بریزیل قادر به مقاومت در برابر قدرت و سرعت شما نخواهد بود, اما آیا از فرصتی که می توانستید کمی بیشتر از مهارت های بوکس خود را داشته باشید سپاسگزار بودید؟?
"خوب, سخت است زیرا شما می توانید ببینید که آنها با هر ضربه آسیب دیده اند – خوب نه هر شلیک – اما وقتی شروع به گرفتار شدن آنها می کنید, آنها می توانند با این دستکش ده اونسی عکسها را احساس کنند. پس, این فقط به زمان بستگی داره, اما در طی این روند ، من نمی خواستم در راه بازگشت از هیچ سازنده مویی پذیرایی کنم.
"سخت بود که من پس از آخرین مبارزه دو هفته مرخصی داشتم, و مستقیماً به ورزشگاه برگشت بنابراین سخت بود. یک بار استراحت خوب کردم و سپس می توانم با باتری های شارژ شده برگردم.”
می دانیم که دونتای وایلدر در حال تماشای این مبارزه بود. آیا برای او پیامی دریافت کرده اید؟, قهرمان WBC?
“فردی الهام بخش باورنکردنی. او صبور بود, 30-دعواهای عجیب و غریب [و] دست های خود را در WBC گرفت [کمربند]. من از این الگو پیروی می کنم. من دارم وارد ایالات متحده می شوم. با SHOWTIME نیز از من پشتیبانی می کند. پس, او آن را تماشا کرد.
“او می تواند هر آنچه را که می خواهد از آن برداشت کند, اما وقتی با هم در رینگ هستید خیلی متفاوت است. بنابراین یک روز ما می توانیم آنچه در مورد یکدیگر هستند را تجربه کنیم.”
می خواهید بعد با چه کسی بجنگید?
“خوب من فکر می کنم که باید مثل اینها باشد [یوسف] پارکر. من واقعاً داشتم به فیوری نگاه می کردم ... امیدوارم که او زودتر بهتر شود. متاسفانه او از ناحیه مچ پا آسیب دید, که آن را به تعویق انداخته است زیرا من امیدوار بودم که اگر همه چیز خوب پیش برود مدتی زمستان را بدست آورم 9 جولای مانند آنامشب, اما در حال حاضر باید برنامه ریزی مجدد کنیم, ما می توانیم به سایر مخالفان مانند پارکر نگاه کنیم, اگر او خالی باشد, یا هر کس دیگری که مردم می خواهند.”
فکر می کنید هنوز باید روی چه چیزی کار کنید?
"باقی مانده. به استراحت نیاز دارم. خسته ام, من سخت کار می کنم و همانطور که گفتم, اکنون می توانم دریافت کنم

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. هیچ فشاری روی من وجود دارد.
“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.”
“نمی توانم صبر کنم, 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.
“انتظار می رود آتش بازی. 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 پوند. 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 در روز شنبه night I’m getting a knockout, برای مطمئن.
“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 در روز شنبه شب.
ADDITIONAL FIGHT WEEK QUOTES:
ANTHONY JOSHUA
"من 16 دعوا, 16 برنده, Dominic is 17 دعوا, 17 برنده. 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, تایسون خشم, 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:
"قبل از مبارزه, no one criticized (چارلز) مارتین. He was undefeated, knocking guys out, tall southpaw, dangerous. 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. وجود دارد 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? البته, بدون شک.
“I’ve been there, I know what it feels like and I’ve done it several times now. همزمان, 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 (مخالفان حرفه ای خود را), 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 دور.
“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. در هر صورت, 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. بله, 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 بازی های المپیک:
“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. و بعد, 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? نمی دانم. 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.’’

Below are highlights of what the principals had to say on the conference call. A full transcript will be available in the coming days.
ANTHONY 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 روز شنبه, 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 16هفتم مبارزه طرفدار:
“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. نمی توانم صبر کنم تا وارد رینگ شوم ژوئن 25 and shock the world, که برای اطمینان حاصل کنید. 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:
"راستش, 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, ژوئن 25, I gain 20,000 طرفداران. 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. با 20,000 UK fans.
“I definitely believe [جاشوا] 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. جوری که بهش نگاه میکنم, 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.”
استفن اسپینوزا, معاون اجرایی رئیس جمهور و مدیر کل, SHOWTIME ورزشی
“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 – بزرگ, 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, رئيس جمهور, Matchroom ورزشی
“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, جوایز TGB
“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. در روز شنبهwe expect him to be victorious and bring that back to America.”

WBC World Heavyweight Champion Deontay Wilder Sees Anthony Joshua-Dominic Breazeale Fight as 50-50
Breazeale Challenges Joshua This روز شنبه, ژوئن 25,
On SHOWTIME BOXING INTERNATIONAL Live on SHOWTIME®
From The O2 in London
نیویورک (ژوئن 22, 2016) – Unbeaten WBC World Heavyweight Champion دئوتای وایلدر can’t pick a clear winner for این شنبه شب Anthony Joshua-Dominic Breazeale world title clash.
The undefeated IBF Heavyweight World Champion Joshua (16-0, 16 کوس) will make the first defense of his title against fellow unbeaten دومینیک Breazeale(17-0, 15 کوس) of Upland, کالیفرنیا., بر SHOWTIME بوکس بین المللی®از The O2 در لندن, زندگی در SHOWTIME® در 5:15 p.m. و/2:15 p.m. PT.
Just a few hours later in Primetime on CBS (9 p.m. و/6 p.m. PT), کیت "یک بار" تورمن will defend his WBA Welterweight World Title against former champ Shawn “Showtime” Porter in a welterweight blockbuster that headlines SHOWTIME قهرمانی بوکس بر CBS, ارائه شده توسط برتر قهرمانان بوکس.
متحیر کردن, 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 جولای 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, شما می دانید منظورم چیست? For that reason, 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,گفت: "وایلدر. “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.”
