Korobov havia de lluitar a la targeta inferior i havia estat entrenant per lluitar contra desembre 22. Va fer un pas endavant de bon grat quan va arribar la crida per a un substitut de Monroe.

“Estava ben preparat per a Willie Monroe, que és un esquerrà, així que no hi haurà tanta diferència davant Korobov,” Said Charlo. “Hi ha una diferència de mida. És més alt que Monroe, però només hauré d'ajustar el meu pla de joc. Els millors lluitadors del món són els que són capaços de fer els millors ajustos. Vencer a Korobov farà que la victòria sigui molt més dolça a causa d'aquesta adversitat. Això vol dir que la celebració també serà més dolça. Estava lluitant a la targeta inferior, doncs està preparat. Però ara lluitar pel títol al primer lloc el farà lluitar més. M'encanta. És un oponent molt millor sobre el paper que Willie Monroe Jr.”

“Estava entrenant per lluitar amb aquesta carta, així que estic físicament i mentalment preparat per lluitar,” va dir Korobov. “No importa que em prengui aquesta lluita amb una setmana d'antelació perquè m'he estat preparant per a aquest moment tota la meva vida.. Faré alguns ajustaments per a Charlo i aprofitaré al màxim aquesta oportunitat. No t'ho perdis. Assegureu-vos de sintonitzar a FOX per a una gran lluita.”

El Charlo vs. El combat de Korobov forma part d'un programa de gran èxit de PBC a FOX que inclou els Charlo Twins defensant els seus títols mundials i un enfrontament de pes pesats entre Dominic Breazeale i Carlos Negron a partir de 8 p.m. ET / 5 PM. PT.

Korobov (28-1, 14 KOs), que inicialment estava programat per enfrontar-se al colombià Juan De Angel, té un currículum excepcional que inclou una victòria per decisió unànime sobre l'actual campió del món de pes súper mitjà Jose Uzcategui a 2014. La seva única derrota va ser contra Andy Lee en una lluita pel campionat de pes mitjà 2014. Korobov estava per davant dels tres jutges’ targetes de puntuació quan va ser atrapat per una mà dreta de Lee que va resultar en una derrota per nocaut tècnic a la sisena ronda.

El zurd de 35 anys és d'Orotukan, Rússia i ara viu a St. Petersburg, Florida. Com a amateur va guanyar el Campionat d'Europa a 2006 en derrotar el vigent campió de pes creuer Oleksandr Usyk.

Amb la nit de la baralla s'acosta, Monroe està treballant dur a la seva ciutat natal de Rochester,Nova York. Juntament amb el seu entrenador Timothy Nolan, Monroe creu que està en bon camí per oferir una gran actuació contra un rival invicte.

“Tot al campament ara està al punt i avança,” va dir la Monroe.”Estem rebent la feina que necessitem cada dia. Sabem com fer un campament sense problemes. Si no puc dir que res va malament, llavors va molt bé.”

“Ell és considerat un dels millors pesos mitjans i fa d'aquest un gran partit. Això temps que faré un camp d'entrenament complet com no vaig arribar a tenir Golovkin i Saunders i m'ajudarà.”

Mentre no posseeix el prodigiós poder d'eliminació del seu oponent, Monroe ho és més que confiat que els seus altres atributs de l'anell compensaran això diferència.

“Estem tant al capdavant de la divisió i no arribes tan lluny sense tenir molt de la capacitat física,” va dir la Monroe. “Aquesta lluita no es tracta de qui és el més ràpid i el més fort però, es tracta de com anem a executar. no ho sóc centrat en qui colpeja més fort però qui colpeja més intel·ligent. Això sempre ho farà determinar qui guanya un partit de boxa.

“Boxa es tracta primer d'intel·ligència i tot segueix després. Seré capaç per executar i fer que Jermall se senti incòmode? Veurem què passa a la lluita nit. Tot i així estaré preparat. Ara estic al meu estable i estic preparat per venir sortint volant per la porta el 22 de desembre.”

HERNANDEZ TO APPEAR ONTHE CONTENDER

(Crèdit: Epix / Dianna GarciaBeck Media)

FRESNO, TAL COM (Agost 1, 2018)Marc “Home boig” Hernández (11-1-1, 3 KOs), who is advised by Al Haymon and fighting under the Lliga de Campions de Boxa platform of fight cards, will appear on the upcoming season of The Contender on EPIX®.

 

The highly anticipated 12-episode season, from MGM Television and Paramount Television, will premiere on EPIX® on Aug. 24, 2018, a 10 PM ET/PT with Hernandez being one of the more notable middleweights featured on the series multiple fights televised on FS1.

 

Hernández, a native of Fresno, TAL COM, trained with his father Joey Hernández until a heavily debated split-decision loss to Kyrone “Shut It Down” Davis made Hernandez rethink his training habits. He has since moved his camp to Southern California and begun training with Henry Ramirez. Since the move Hernandez, has since gone undefeated in the professional realm.

 

 

I am excited that a lot of people will get to see me on The Contender,” va dir Hernández. “I loved being on the show and growing up I watched it every week. It was amazing to see Andre Ward i Sergio Mora ja està. Those guys are two fighters who fought at middleweight that I have looked up to my whole career.

 

This is an opportunity to create a better life for my son, my wife as well as my mom and dad. I am proud to be from Fresno and I want people to know where I am from and who I am fighting for.”

 

Calderon Beats Martinez in Grudge Match at Hard Rock Event Center at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino a Hollywood, Fla.

A heated crosstown welterweight rivalry was decided tonight in front of a near sellout crowd at Hard Rock Event Center at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino a Hollywood, Florida, as Miami’s Harold “King” Calderon (17-0, 10 KOs) out-worked and out-punched Miami’s formerly undefeated John David “Pretty Boy” Martinez (10-1, 8 KOs)

 

 

Fighting in the 10-round main event of Kris Lawrence’s Heavyweight Factory Boxing “Hometown Throwdown,” esdeveniment, Calderon cruised to a dominant 10-round decision by scores of 99-91, 100-90 i 100-90.

 

 

 

A combination-punching southpaw, Calderon had too many weapons for Martinez. He ripped to the body and head for 10 rondes, while Martinez offered up the occasional one/two.

 

 

 

Both fighters are enormously popular in the region and their fans tried everything to drown each other out all fight.

 

 

 

In the night’s 10-round super lightweight co-main event, Honolulu’s undefeated Logan “The Korican Kid” Yoon moved his record to 12-0, 10 KOs, with a routine unanimous decision over Colombian veteran Luis E. Flors (24-10, 20 KOs).

 

 

 

The promising 19-year-old Yoon, the WBO-NABO Youth Super Lightweight Champion and WBO #13-rated contender, learned a lesson about veteran survival tactics, as he followed the reluctant Colombian around the ring the entire fight, looking for opportunities to engage. Flores landed the occasional right hand on the southpaw Yoon, but mostly threw pot shots that missed and then quickly circled out of range of any return fire.

 

 

 

Yoon was cut over the left eye by a headbutt, but still managed to dominate the infrequent action. Les puntuacions van ser 99-91, 97-93 i 97-93.

 

 

 

Two-time Olympic medalist Ivan Dychko of Hollywood, Florida, via Kazakhstan, moved his perfect record to 7-0 (7 KOs) with a one-punch demolition of once promising Maurice Harris 26-22-3 (11 KOs) of East Orange, Nova Jersey.

 

 

 

Imagina't, who said he was hoping to learn something from the experienced Harris, landed a glancing right hook and Harris elected to look for a soft spot to land. Disappointed fans voice their disapproval of Harris’ non-effort. The time of the 10 count was 1:39.

 

 

 

Two featherweights went to crowd-pleasing war over city-wide bragging rights, and after six rounds of “bombs away” action, Jessy Cruz (ara 13-7-1, 5 KOs) ended up taking a unanimous decision over fellow Miami resident Raul Chirino (11-8, 6 KOs).

 

 

 

The all-action Cruz can’t seem to be in a bad fight and this one was no different. He was down and badly hurt near the end of round one. Chirino was badly staggered at the end of round two and down from a right hand in round three.

 

 

 

Les puntuacions van ser 58-54, 57-55 i 57-55, but this fun fight could have easily been called a draw.

 

 

 

A single left hook by Miami’s Livan Navarro at 2:47 of round one brought an end to what was shaping up to be a decent eight-round welterweight showdown against the Dominican’s Julio C Reynoso.

 

 

 

The pair came out swinging for the fences and Navarro (ara 8-0, 6 KOs) hit it first with the sledgehammer left hand to the jaw of Reynoso (ara 12-2, 7 KOs) who dropped and took the full 10 count on one knee.

 

 

 

In a fight where both fighters appeared to injure themselves, popular Miami slugger Ulysses Diaz was forced to go the distance for the first time, but still managed to win his light heavyweight four-rounder over Chicago’s Israel Echevarria by unanimous decision (puntuacions de 39-37, 40-36 i 40-36).

 

 

 

As in many fights tonight, the judges’ verdicts were no indication of the closeness of the fight. The two warriors each did their share of good work. The heavily muscled Diaz (ara 6-0, 5 KOs) landed the harder punches occasionally while favoring his right arm. The crafty Echevarria (ara 3-5, 2 KOs) snuck in a number of sneaky shots, despite an injured left leg.

 

 

 

To put it mildly, Echevarria was very unhappy with the decision.

 

 

 

In an all-Miami super middleweight scrap, Cuban import Irosvani Duvergel (3-0, 2 KOs) won a four-round unanimous decision over “better than his record” Elie Agustama (6-9, 3 KOs).

 

 

 

Duvergel, who had never seen the second round of a professional fight previously, dropped Agustama in the first, but the durable Agustama got up and made a great fight of it. The free-swinging pair brawled furiously the rest of the way. The scores (40-35, 39-36 i 39-36) didn’t reflect the competitiveness of the combat.

 

 

 

In a back-and-forth six-round lightweight battle, Coral Springs, Florida’s Dustin Arnold (5-1, 1 KO) won a closely contested unanimous decision over Miami’s Daniel Placeres (ara (6-1, 5 KOs).

 

 

 

Arnold landed the cleaner, harder shots to offset the superior work rate of the shorter Placeres. Plenty of crowd support for both fighters. Les puntuacions van ser 60-54, 58-56 i 59-55

 

 

 

Undefeated Lawrence Newton, de Boynton Beach, Florida, chose to brawl inside for all six rounds of his super bantamweight showdown with tough Mexican, Pedro Melo of Tijuana.

 

 

The result was an entertaining if one-sided brawl with nice punches landed both ways. Al final, Newton (10-0, 6 KOs) kept his perfect record by scores of 60-54, 59-55 i 59-55. Melo falls to 17-19-2, 8 KOs) with his respectable performance.

My fights last one, 2, sometimes three rounds. I’ve never been tested over the distance. I hope some of these veterans can give me some rounds and let me test myself against them and maybe teach me a few things.”

Here is what Lara had to say about Foreman, training camp with Ronnie Shields and more:
Al seu recent camp d’entrenament…
We just wrapped up about a week and we got some good rest during fight week. Training camp has been very productive. I’m comfortable with my weight and I feel strong going into this fight. My strength and conditioning is right where I want it. Ronnie and I are always polishing up on the things I do well. Total, it’s been a great camp.
On facing former world champion Yuri Foreman
I’m grateful to Yuri Foreman for accepting this fight. I know he’s hungry to get back in the ring. He wants to prove that he’s still relevant in the super welterweight division. He’s a former world champion who knows what it’s like to win at the elite level. I’m not looking past Yuri Forman, but I’m very confident I’ll be victorious. I feel I’m going to be the superior fighter when we both step in the ring demà nit.”
On returning to Miami to fight in front of a large Cuban community
My last fight here was amazing and the fan support was unbelievable. I got the knockout and I’m hoping to do the same again. If I see my opponent hurt, I’ll be looking to take him out. I love my Cuban countrymen and all their support, as well as my American fans. Miami is like a second home to me and I can’t wait to give the fans a great show.
On the state of the super welterweight division
The division, En la meva opinió, is the most talented division in boxing. Everyone at the top is looking to cement their legacy in boxing history and everyone is spectacular. En el futur, we will all have to face each other at some point. Així, expect some unification bout to be presented, and may the best man rise to the top. I know I’m ready to fight everyone, but first I must get past Foreman.
On fighting in the main event on Spike
Fighting on Spike, com l'esdeveniment principal, is going to fantastic. The exposure is wonderful for any athlete competing on their network. La boxa és un gran esport, and Spike TV is helping us gain more fans with their viewers. The PBC is doing an excellent job. I’m very happy to be fighting on network television.

Here is what the participants had to say from the Turf Club at Hialeah Park:
Erislandy Lara
Thank you everyone for coming, especially Spike TV and Hialeah Park. Thanks to Team Foreman for taking this fight. Serà una gran baralla Divendres nit.
Yuri Foreman is a great fighter and a very smart fighter. I am also a very smart fighter, de forma Divendres night we’re going to find out who is the smarter one in the ring.
“Em sento molt bé. Very happy to be back in Miami in front of my Cuban and Latin fans. This is a great night for Miami and Spike and I plan on putting on a show and making a statement to the boxing world.
“Em sento molt bé. I’m in great shape and feel very strong. I’m ready to fight right now. I just want the bell to ring.
Yuri Foreman
It’s great to be here in Miami where it’s nice and warm and with so many great fighters on this card. I’m ready and looking forward to Divendres. I came here to win and I feel very positive about this.
Erislandy Lara is a great fighter, but me being from the Soviet Union, I’m very familiar with Cuban boxing and have quite a bit of experience with their style, so I’m looking forward to stepping in and showcasing my talents and skills.
Being a rabbi, it is sometimes very interesting to mix that with fighting, però Divendres night I won’t be in rabbi mode. I will be all fighter. We are going to show skills and heart and power el divendres nit.”
ANTHONY Dirrell
I think this is my third Spike event and I’m happy to be fighting on a show with two great fighters like Lara and Foreman.
It’s going to be a hell of a show. We are going to put on a great show. All the fights on the card are tremendous fightsundefeated fighters fighting undefeated fighters and champions fighting champions and we are all coming to win.
I was going to talk a lot of trash to him (Nemespati), but he can’t understand me anyway. I am looking forward to a great fight against a good opponent like him. Assegureu-vos de sintonitzar el divendres and catch the action!”
NORBERT NEMESAPATI
I am coming in as the smaller fighter, so I will have to put a lot of pressure on him. I sparred a lot of rounds for this fight, with a lot of tall guys. That’s fine with me that he is taller because I love to punch to the body.
I might never get another opportunity like this, so I have to make the most of it. This is a beautiful place and I’m coming to the ring to win big. Thank you for this very special opportunity.
MIGUEL CRUZ
I wish that Alex Martin was here so I could talk a little smack to his face.
“13-0, 11 KOs vs. 13-0, 5 KOs… basically somebody’s ‘0’ has to go and I can give you a hintit’s not going to be mine.
I’m going to crush him like an ant with a sledgehammer. I’m going to destroy him. Aquest és el pla. No t'ho perdis.”
