Las Vegas (Siete. 16) – The first Las Vegas born world champion, Es Él “Azúcar Shay” Herrero (29-8, 12 KOs) defeated Frank “Notorio” Galarza (17-2-2, 11 KOs) via majority decision in his hometown from The Chelsea inside The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas in the main event of Premier Boxing Champions (PBC): La Ronda Siguiente en la despedida de TV.
I had to dig deep. This was the first time in a very long time I had to dig deep,” said Smith of his victory. “They kept telling me in my corner that its was close. He came to win, but in the end I got the victory.
Smith and Galarza used the first round to feel each other out, but the action picked up in the second as Smith threw a straight right hand that dropped Galarza to the canvas.
He caught me off balance and it turned out to be a knockdown. I think that made the difference in the whole fight honestly.
Galarza came back swinging in the fourth, pressing Smith against the ropes with a tight combination of punches. Smith controlled the fifth round throwing hard blows to the body of Galarza followed by a hard left hook to end the round. The tides turned in the seventh round as Galarza pinned Smith against the ropes with a flurry of body punches. But it was the tenth and final round that sealed a win for Smith as he land punch after punch. Judges saw the bout 95-95, 96-93 y 95-94.
Young guys feel like I’m old. They like to apply pressure, but I set him up with the traps. I got comfortable in the middle rounds he turned it up a gear and applied pressure I wasn’t ready for,” continued Smith. “It took me a round or two to get adjusted, once I got adjusted I thought I did real well and was able to close the show. I was surprised in the 95-95 y 95-94, I was thinking wow if I didn’t get that knockdown it may have swayed his way for the victory.
Training with the best like Floyd, Bernard Hopkins, it has allowed me to learn. I have learned so much from the greatest fighter in the world, and pick up something from each of them. I am thankful I was able to pick up a lot along the way in my career.
Galarza felt as though he had to do much more to get the win.
I’m in his hometown, Vegas, its his promotion. Those little slip ups were going to cost me the fight. I had to be active, be in his chest, permanece ocupada. There were moments where I was doing that, but I let some of it go at times.
I think the knockdown made me want to press on the gas and start pushing. He is awkward. He’s wide. He’s all over the place and I didn’t want to get hit with any silly punches.
“Sucede. It’s one of those things where we have to go back to the drawing board and we will be back at it again.
The co-main event featured a pair of super welterweight prospects that produced exciting two-way action from the first bell. Detroit’s Domonique Dolton (17-1-1, 9 KOs) stalked Justin Deloach around the ring, but it was Augusta, Georgia’s Justin DeLoach’s (16-1, 8 KOs) superior boxing ability and effective counterpunching that made the difference. Midway through the fight, a wide cut opened on the bridge of Dolton’s nose, providing an extra target for DeLoach.
The cut was from a prior fight, and I just wanted to get back in the ring as soon as possible,” said Dolton. “Allowing him to get so many shots in, opened the cut. I can’t blame anyone but myself in this fight.
I am disappointed in my performance; I didn’t fight a smart fight. I fought his fight, I wasn’t using my mind in this fight. I was looking for that big shot. Trying to set up a shot the whole fight that I lost sight and didn’t fight smart. I should have been using my jab more, when I had the opportunity to go in on him, I didn’t take it like I should have. Overall I just need to continue what Im doing and get back to my training.
Despite the unanimous decision win where the judges scored the bout 96-94, 98-92 y 99-91, DeLoach also was unimpressed with his own performance.
I made it way tougher for myself than I should have. I should have used my legs more and listened to my corner,” said DeLoach. “I am not satisfied with my performance even though I got the W.I didn’t stay focused enough. Domonique is a tough opponent and I should have stuck to the game plan.
I’m not going to call out any names because I’m just not happy with my performance,” continued DeLoach. “I am going to be back in the gym los lunes and work on the things I need to fix before thinking about fighting again.
The opening bout of the telecast saw Jose Cayetano (20-4, 9 KOs) kick off Mexican Independence Day Weekend with a lot to celebrate. The Tijuana native defeated 25-year-old Alexis Santiago (21-3-1, 8 KOs) por decisión unánime, ending the Phoenix-native’s 10-fight win streak. The 10-round super bantamweight bout started slow, but the action picked up in the fifth when Cayetano connected with a sharp right hook, causing Santiago to buckle, but not fall.
At the start of the bell in the seventh round, Santiago forced Cayetano against the ropes, throwing a flurry of punches. Santiago landed a hard right hook mid-way through the ninth round, causing the largely pro-Santiago crowd to cheer. The fight finished strong with both fighters swinging for the fences, exchanging hard blows bringing the crowd to their feet. 97-93, 96-94 2X.
Santiago started out strong but as the rounds went on, he got less and less so,” said Cayetano. “The fifth round was when I knew I really had him and it continued from there. Even though he landed some shots, he never hurt me.
I want to fight Leo Santa Cruz in a rematch next. That is the fight I really want. Two Mexican warriors at it again.
This was the worst performance of my career,” dijo Santiago. “I could have done everything better. I wasn’t able to find myself during the fight. I usually am able to, but this time it was hard for me.

¿Cómo ha ido el campo de entrenamiento para esta pelea??
Domonique Dolton: “El entrenamiento ha ido bien. Mi estrategia ha sido ceñirme al acondicionamiento. Nado dos veces por semana y eso es algo nuevo que se ha agregado a mi rutina. Ha ayudado mucho con el acondicionamiento. Tengo un nuevo entrenador, Cámaras de Theotrice, y tenemos una gran química y los resultados se mostrarán en la noche de la pelea.”
Justin DeLoach: “El campo de entrenamiento ha sido increíble. Realmente ha sido un gran campamento. Estamos haciendo todas las cosas físicas y mentales que tenemos que hacer para esta pelea.. Mantengo mi cabeza en el juego y estoy concentrado. Este equipo ha estado conmigo desde la época de los aficionados.”
¿Qué piensas de tu oponente y cómo ves que esta pelea va estilísticamente??
DD: “Por lo que vi, parece un tipo duro. Aunque no estamos al mismo nivel. Ha peleado con un par de tipos invictos, pero no se compara con mi nivel de lucha. Mis habilidades hablarán por mi. Puse el trabajo duro. No estaré pensando en la multitud; será una visión de túnel para mí en el ring. Mi estilo es un boxeador-golpeador y estoy dispuesto a entrar si es necesario. Puedo adaptarme y ajustarme en el ring y esa es mi ventaja sobre él.”

¿Qué tipo de problemas plantea tu oponente??
DD: “No veo ningún problema. He estado en el ring con todo tipo de chicos. Me he enfrentado cara a cara con muchos chicos y he visto muchos. Tengo la ventaja de la experiencia. Tengo lo que se necesita y estoy en un nivel diferente al de Justin DeLoach.”
JD: “No siento que haya ningún problema en este. Yo soy mi mayor reto. La única persona que puede vencerme, soy yo. El es solo otro cuerpo en el ring. Voy a pensar más que él allí. He estado manteniendo mi mente bien y eso me ayudará en la noche de la pelea.”
¿Qué está buscando en el futuro si puede obtener la victoria en Septiembre 16?
DD: “Esta será probablemente mi última pelea en la división.. Bajaré y seguiré mi carrera en 147 libras. Creo que soy un luchador mejor y más natural en 147 libras.. Tengo mis nombres en chicos con ese peso, pero por ahora solo quiero hacerme un nombre. Estoy buscando obtener una victoria y convertirme en un mejor luchador.”
JD: “No siento la necesidad de llamar a nadie. Pero si tienes un cinturón, entonces yo voy por ti. No hace falta decir que quiero una oportunidad por el título y creo que estoy listo.”
¿Por qué crees que saldrás victorioso en la noche de la pelea??
DD: “Voy a ganar esta pelea. Mi confianza está por las nubes del equipo con el que he estado trabajando. Estoy contento con el trabajo que he estado realizando. He estado entrenando muy duro y creo en mi capacidad.. Tengo lo que se necesita para ganar. Estoy listo para montar un espectáculo para mi familia.. Estoy motivado por la negatividad para que la gente en mi contra vea lo que traigo en la noche de la pelea.”
JD: “Siento que estoy trayendo paz a esta pelea. No tengo nada que demostrar y estoy tratando de hacer una declaración. El tiene mas que perder que yo. Solo puedo ser Justin DeLoach. Estoy en este deporte para desafiarme. La pérdida me convirtió en un mejor luchador. Me humilló y quitó mucha presión de mis hombros.. Soy mejor que nunca.”

Frank Galarza Camp Notes Once-Beaten Contender Battles Former World Champion Ishe Smith in Main Event of Premier Boxing Champions: La Ronda Siguiente en la despedida de TV

Viernes, Siete. 16 From The Chelsea inside
The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas – 9 p.m. Y/6 p.m.PT
LAS VEGAS (Siete. 6, 2016) – Brooklyn-born contender Franco “Notorio” Galarza has been the embodiment of a redemption story his whole life and he will look to keep that theme going when he returns from his first pro loss to take on former world champion Es Él “Azúcar Shay” Herrero en el evento principal de Liga de Campeones de Boxeo: La Ronda Siguiente en la despedida de TV Viernes, Siete. 16 desde El Chelsea dentro The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas.
Televised coverage begins on Bounce TV at 9 p.m. Y/6 p.m. PT y presenta un enfrentamiento de peso súper welter entre Domonique Dolton (17-0-1, 9 KOs)y Justin DeLoach (15-1, 8 KOs).
Las entradas para el evento en vivo, which is promoted by Mayweather Promotions, empieza en $29 y están a la venta. Tickets areavailable online at: www.cosmopolitanlasvegas.com oa través de Ticketmaster en (800) 745-3000 y www.ticketmaster.com.
After being defeated by unbeaten Jarret Hurd in November 2015, Galarza is determined to reclaim his spot as a contender in the 154-pound division. Training out of the Flatbush Cops and Kids Boxing Gym in Brooklyn with longtime trainer Nirmal Lorick, Galarza has his sights set on the top of the super welterweight division.
Here is what Galarza had to say about training camp, his main event showdown, the 154-pound division and more:
What kind of problems does Ishe Smith propose and what does a victory over him do for you?
FG: I don’t anticipate having any problems with Ishe. I spar the best guys in the world and with guys who have a lot more experience than I do. I’m going to go in, do my job and make adjustments as needed.
Beating Ishe puts me exactly where I need to be. I took my first loss in Las Vegas and I wasn’t on my A-game. Fighting Ishe puts me right back after the loss. I constantly put myself to the test with top guys. Ishe is someone in my path who at this point, is in my way.
What’s your mentality following the loss in your last fight?
FG:I have lost so much in my life, so I see this loss as just a number. Boxing has everyone fooled that we need to be undefeated to be a top contender or to be great. Some of the greatest fighters have suffered losses. I am looking to be legendary and continue to fight great guys. I’m going to put my record on the line and challenge myself.
I don’t have a deep boxing background, so I’m learning on the job. I am able to overcome every obstacle. This fight isn’t about the money, this fight and my career is for me. I want to challenge myself.
Who do you see as the top fighters in the 154-pound division?
FG: The Charlo Brothers, Demetrius Andrade, Julian Williams and Erislandy Lara are the top of the division in my mind. There are a lot of good fighters in this division. At this point now, the other guys need to go, and that’s where I come into play. Someone like Ishe is an older guy and he needs to give it up and get out of the way for hungry guys like me and the rest of us. People want to see guys like us.
Who would you like to matchup with, if you can defeat Ishe Smith?
FG: I’ll face anybody. I’m not trying to fluff my record. I come off a tough loss and I’m looking to beat a former world champion. Give me the best fight and the top guys. Give me one of the Charlo brothers and I’ll fight for one of their titles. Put me in with any of these guys and I will put them to the test, if not beat them.
It’s a drive I have in me, especially lately, where I feel like I’ve been overlooked. It upsets me to be underestimated. I never turn down a fight. I have to be fearless in order to make it where I need to go. I am not a mediocre fighter. There’s a reason they call me the ‘Brooklyn Rocky.I’ve been through adversity and Ishe is in for a rude awakening. The boxing industry has me completely underestimated and at the end of the day, que gane el mejor.”
Talk about your work outside of the ring and how you strive to inspire kids who grew up in similar situations to yourself:
FG: I have a non-profit called Youth Fighting Forward. I teach them that no matter what you go through, you can be whoever you want to be I came from nothing and I lost my parents at a young age. I don’t use that as an excuse. I refuse to be a statistic. I want to give the kids back that inspiration.
Whatever it is you love to do; you are more than capable of doing it. It is in your hands to be a success story. You are not where you came from. We have the ability to change lives. My focus is to help kids growing up who are surrounded by negativity to see a positive. I put my body to the limits and when I don’t want to work out, I push through that. I want to show the kids that they have to have discipline to get through it and one day, I will be a world champion.

The Las Vegas-native will be fighting in his hometown for the 18º time in his career when he faces Galarza. A former 154-pound titlist, Smith looks to prove that he is still amongst the championship contenders in the division with a victory on Septiembre 16.
Here is what Smith had to say about training camp, su oponente y más:
How has this training camp been going and how does it compare to past camps?
Pretty steady, we are taking things back to the basics and correcting a lot of errors. We are focused on fixing some things and working on a few new techniques. We are going back to school and fine tuning the details. It is so hard to compete at the highest level in boxing. The champion and contender level is very challenging. I have lost a couple of close fights at this level, and won a few at this level as well.
This training camp has been good but more challenging than the past camps. I normally am the one calling the shots and taking control, but I have given all of that to my coaches and let them take the reins. I have been in this game for 16 año, 30 overall as both a professional and amateur. If I want to get where I need to be, I need to have the right team in place, and that is what I respect about my current team.
What kind of skill set does your opponent bring and how do you prepare for it?
I’m not wasting my time focusing on what Galarza does or what he has done to his opponents. My opponent is myself and executing the game plan that we put forth. A lot of people think this is a big step up for him and they usually get hungrier when given the opportunity, but I have been in there with other hungry young fighters. I am going to go out there and show him there are levels to this.
If you can get past Galarza, who would you like to fight in the 154-pound division next?
I am totally focusing on the opponent at hand. I would like to fight again this year if possible, but my main focus is Galarza. He is coming off of a loss, where he got stopped. I have been in there with everybody, and the guys I lost to were controversial decisions. I have been around the block so my main opponent on Septiembre 16 is myself. There are levels to this game and I am going to treat this fight at such.
What does it mean to you to fight in front of your hometown fans in Las Vegas?
Whenever I can fight in front of my family, amigos, and loved ones, que significa todo para mí. I have never fought at the Cosmopolitan, but have been to fights there. Headlining a fight there adds another notch to my career.
As one of the more experienced members of the Mayweather Promotions stable, have you taken on a mentor/leadership role with the young fighters in the gym?
“Definitivamente. I am the oldest on the team, so if I feel like guys are doing things wrong or if I think they should be going right instead of left, I definitely let them know. I am an old soul. I may not hang out every day or want to do the things they like to do, but I still give them my advice.
I hope that I help to motivate them. I want to prevent them from making some of the decisions I made that I then had to learn from. Some may think I’m being hard on them but you just have to take it as constructive criticism and keep learning.

The four-fight telecast, which was supported by non-televised fights featuring some of Mayweather Promotions’ estrellas en ascenso, took place at the Pearl at Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas.
Coming off of a luxury world tour, Floyd Mayweather returned stateside and sat ringside as promoter of tonight’s fights. The recently retired five-division world champion, who also learned today he was selected asSports Illustrated Boxeador del Año, was animated and engaged through the final bell of the evening.
El evento principal, which started off as a close toe-to-toe battle, ended in the Barthelemy’s favor as he swept the latter quarter of the bout. Shafikov controlled the beginning of the fight, staying in the pocket and throwing more powerful punches than Barthelemy as the Cuban had a difficult time adjusting to the significantly shorter, yet stronger, style of Shafikov.
The turning point of the fight occurred when a cut caused by a punch by Barthelemy opened up above Shafikov’s right eye in the eighth round. The blood began to poor furiously and referee Vic Drakulich called the ringside doctor over to inspect the cut. When the fight resumed, Barthelemy attacked the Russian’s eye and never let up for the remainder of the fight. He took advantage of the cut and coupled it with his height and reach advantage which led to a recipe for success as he is now a two-division world champion. The judges saw the bout 119-109 y 116-112 dos veces.
There were moments where I was trapped into my style of fighting. It took me a minute to adjust to Shafikov’s style and exchange punches with him,” Said Bartolomé. “I’m really happy with the number of punches I was able to get off.
I was really impressed with Shafiov’s warrior style. He never gave up even after getting hurt with punches that were affecting his fight. That really caught me by surprise and also that he was able to last the whole fight. The fact that he continued really says something about him as a fighter.
I’m not sure if I won the fight,” Said Shafikov. “I’m very disappointed and I want a rematch.
The co-main event saw a bizarre ending to what was to be a cruiserweight elimination bout. Detroit southpawIsiah Thomas (15-0, 6 KOs) was winning the fight on all three judgesscorecards through round three when Russian power-puncher Murat “Hierro” Gassiev (22-0, 16 KOs) threw accidental late blows to Thomashead after the bell. The punches forced referee Jay Nady to make the tough call that the punchesdiminished the valueof Thomasability to continue. As the fight had not yet gone four rounds, unified rules state that the fight does not go to the scorecards, thus ruling it a no contest.

If you believe in God and work hard at what you’re doing, you’re going to succeed,” dijo Walker. “Look at me now.
I had watched his previous fights and knew that my right hand would be too much for him and that I could land it anytime,” continuó Walker. “My conditioning was really the difference tonight. I was in great shape and I was able to rely on that when the going got tough.

Pearson was disappointed in the decision and was left wanting a rematch.

“Me quito el sombrero ante él,” dijo Pearson. “His punches were crisp and hard. I just couldn’t get going on anything consistently. I thought it was closer than the judgesscorecards and I definitely want a rematch as soon as possible.

En la primera pelea de la noche, one of boxing’s fast rising stars, Gervonta “El único” Davis (14-0, 13 KOs) out of Baltimore put his undefeated record on the line against Mexico’s Luis Sanchez (17-5-1, 5 KOs) en un choque ligero.

Davis, a 21-year-old protégé of Mayweather, lived up to his reputation as a budding superstar scoring a hard-fought ninth round knockout victory. Sanchez showed his toughness and resiliency as he forced Davis to fight three rounds longer than any fight of his career.Davis showed his speed and power in the eighth round as he landed an uppercut to knock down his determined opponent. En la novena ronda, he threw a massive left hand to finish Sanchez, sending Mayweather to his feet in celebration.

It felt great to fight all of these rounds and get the work in,” dijo Davis. “He’s a tough fighter and I learned a great deal tonight. It was a very good experience for me.
I just listened to my corner and Floyd, took my time and broke him down. I want to fight again as soon as possible for a world title.
Mayweather, who was very pleased with Davis’ actuación, sees the young undefeated fighter’s future as bright.
It’s always good to go out there and get the W,” dijo Mayweather. “Es joven. He’s still learning. We’re looking forward to him being a world champion some day.
Mayweather relished in the opportunity to promote one of the final fights of the year in his hometown of Las Vegas saying, “I’m so happy we were able to showcase on national television some of the talented fighters we have at Mayweather Promotions. Ganar o perder, I am proud of all of them.
More importantly I want to wish everyone Happy Holidays and thank for them supporting me, Mayweather Promotions and The Money Team throughout all of these years. I appreciate it from the bottom of my heart.
