**ORANGE, CA (Septembrie 28, 2020)** – Former super bantamweight world champion, **Danny Roman** (28-3-1, 10 KO), has his sights on challenging newly crowned WBC Champion **Luis Nery** (31-0, 24 KO) after his recent unanimous decision over **Juan Carlos Payano** (21-4, 9 KO). Roman defeated Payano by scores of 116-112 across the board in a WBC title elimination bout, putting him next in line to challenge Nery, who defeated previously unbeaten **Aaron Alameda** (25-1, 13 KO) by way of a twelve round unanimous decision, to capture the vacant WBC belt.

“After defeating Payano, my focus has shifted to challenging Luis Nery for the WBC title.” said Roman, who is promoted by **Thompson Boxing Promotions**. “I am now the mandatory challenger to fight Nery and I believe that fight can be made easily, since we are both fighting on SHOWTIME with the PBC. Luis Nery is a true warrior, as am I, and I’ll be ready to fight him anytime, oriunde. Nery is a very gifted fighter and I think that fight will be fan friendly with both of us leaving everything in the ring.”

În plus, Roman has unfinished business to settle with IBF/WBA champion,**Murodjon Akhmadaliev** (8-0, 6 KO) after he lost a close split decision in their world championship bout that took place in January of this year. Roman relinquished his IBF and WBA titles that night.

“I want a rematch with Murodjon Akhmadaliev as I believe I won that fight,” Roman continued. “When you fight champion for his titles, you must win convincingly, and I don’t think Akhmadaliev did enough that night, but the judges thought differently. I graciously took the defeat with class, but it didn’t feel right. I want to avenge my loss.”

în cele din urmă, if a fight cannot be made with Nery or Akhmadaliev, Roman wants WBO champion, **Angelo Leo** (20-9 KO). În ultimul său meci, Leo captured the vacant WBO world title with a dominating performance against previously undefeated contender, **Tramaine Williams** (19-1, 6 KO).

“Angelo Leo, who holds the WBO title, is the other world champion that I want to challenge,” Roman concluded. “Leo is another great fighter that brings excitement each time he fights, and I know if we go to battle, it will be an explosive fight. Before my loss to Akhmadaliev, I was unbeaten for six years. I’m ready to become a world champion once again.”

**NEW YORK,** – Septembrie 9, 2020 – Former unified super bantamweight champion **Danny Roman** anticipates an action packed showdown as he previewed his upcoming WBC super bantamweight title eliminator bout against former world champion **Juan Carlos Payano** taking place Saturday, Septembrie 26 in part two of a first-of-its-kind SHOWTIME PPV doubleheader presented by Premier Boxing Champions.

“Payano is one of the toughest and roughest fighters in the division,” said Roman. “His only losses are to elite fighters. This fight will be all action because Payano likes to mix it up, ca nu am. The fans will get to see two warriors going at it as I’m fully prepared for a grueling fight. This will be an explosive twelve-round battle, and that’s if it goes the distance, which I highly doubt.”

Roman and his longtime trainer Eddie Gonzalez have prepared for the Payano fight at the Fundamentals Gym in Los Angeles, studying their opponent and aiming to put on an impressive performance on September 26.

“It’s been a very productive training camp thus far,” said Roman. “We’ve been going strong, but smart, since early August. Coach Eddie has been studying Payano and we see some flaws in his game that we feel we can capitalize on. I’m in great shape and its full steam ahead for Payano showdown.”

The Los Angeles-native Roman will return to the ring for the first time since dropping a narrow split-decision, and his super bantamweight titles, to Murodjon Akhmadaliev in January. Roman knows that with a win in this title eliminator, he will be in a prime position to regain his status in the division.

“A victory will put me right back on the doorstep for a world title,” said Roman. “I feel that I’m still one of the best fighters at super bantamweight, but I must get past Payano. There are so many big fights at super bantamweight, because this division is one of the deepest in boxing. My mind is set on becoming a world champion again, and a victory against Payano will bring me closer to that goal.”

Septembrie 26 doubleheader is stacked with champions and top talent in the 122-pound division, presenting an abundance of opportunities for Roman should he emerge victorious. The 30-year-old relishes the opportunities in front of him to fight for the top spot at super bantamweight.

“I’m excited about this next chapter of my career with PBC and fighting on SHOWTIME^®,” said Roman. “I know there will be a lot of big fights that can be made, and I want to thank my promoter Thompson Boxing for always believing in me. La sfârșitul zilei, I’m an entertainer and I want to give the fans great fights.”

The unprecedented pay-per-view twin bill features six compelling fights in all, five of which are world title fights, on the same night for one price. Part one of the SHOWTIME PPV telecast begins live at a special time of 7 p.m. ET / 4 p.m. PT with the three-fight card topped by unbeaten WBC Champion **Jermall Charlo** facing top contender **Sergiy Derevyanchenko**. WBA Super Bantamweight Champion **Brandon Figueroa** will defend his title against 122-pound contender **Damien Vázquez** in the co-featured bout, while WBO Bantamweight World Champion **John Riel Casimero** faces off against unbeaten **Duke Micah** in the pay-per-view opener.

Following a 30-minute intermission, the second three-fight card, headlined by the historic unification matchup between WBC Super Welterweight ChampionJermell Charlo and IBF and WBA 154-pound champion **Jeison Rosario**, will begin. Fost campion neînvins **Luis Nery** va lupta neînvinsAaron Alameda pentru Campionatul Mondial WBC Super Bantamweight în co-caracteristică, în timp ce fost campion unificat Román se confruntă cu fostul campion **Payano** într-un meci de eliminare a titlului WBC Super Bantamweight pentru a deschide a doua tranșă a pay-per-view.

**NEW YORK - septembrie 1, 2020 -** Campion mondial WBC Super Welterweight **Jermell Charlo** și campion mondial WBA și IBF de 154 de kilograme **Jeison Rosario** au avut o previzualizare a confruntării lor de unificare blockbuster în timpul unei conferințe de presă virtuale de marți, în timp ce se apropiau de bătălia principală a evenimentului din partea a doua a primei capete duble SHOWTIME PPV sâmbătă, Septembrie 26 într-un eveniment prezentat de Premier Boxing Champions.

Cinci dintre cei șase luptători care vor concura în partea a doua a evenimentului fără precedent au participat la apelul de presă de astăzi. Fost campion neînvins **Luis Nery** va lupta neînvins **Aaron Alameda** pentru Campionatul Mondial WBC Super Bantamweight în co-caracteristică, în timp ce fost campion unificat **Daniel Roman** se confruntă cu fostul campion **Juan Carlos Payano** într-un meci de eliminare a titlului WBC Super Bantamweight pentru a deschide a doua tranșă a pay-per-view. Nery nu a putut participa la apel din cauza unor probleme tehnice.

Iată ce au avut de spus marți participanții la conferința de presă virtuală:

**JERMELL Charlo:**

„Sunt mai puternic și mai rapid decât am fost vreodată. Tabăra a fost uimitoare. Nu-mi vine să cred că m-am format atât de repede, dar chiar nu am ieșit niciodată din formă. Fac investiții în mine și îmi fac temele.

„Felicitări Rosario pentru că a avut șansa de a trece la acest nivel. Dar știu ce posed în ring atunci când aleg să-mi dau drumul. Sunt mai pregătit pentru această luptă decât orice luptă pe care am avut-o vreodată.

„Moștenirea mea este pe linie. Îmi hrănesc familia așa. Nu este vorba despre ceea ce vom spune. Nu este un secret despre cum lupt. Sunt periculos și mă simt și mai periculos acum. Sunt încântat să plec 12 runde. Capacitatea și abilitățile mele depășesc pe toți acești tipi din divizie. Acum sunt mult mai înfometat. Focul a fost aprins în mine.

„O mulțime de oameni au fost surprinși că Jeison a câștigat împotriva lui Julian Williams, dar de fapt nu am fost. Williams avea de-a face cu multe. Dar eu sunt un alt tip de luptător. Dedicarea mea este diferită de toată lumea.

„Eu și fratele meu am fost întotdeauna îndoieli. Pe măsură ce mă maturizez, Nu-mi pasă de ce spune cineva din exterior. Nu-mi pasă cine face clasamentul. Treaba mea este să boxez. A fost odată hobby-ul meu. Am făcut asta pentru totdeauna și am crescut în asta. Sunt un alt animal. La fel cum Rosario trebuia să urce la niveluri, Am făcut și asta. Mă mențin acolo unde sunt, datorită muncii mele grele și a modului în care lupt. Tot ce trebuie să faci este să mă pui acolo și voi merge să-l iau pentru tine.

„Cred că ultimele mele două lupte și stilurile diferite pe care le-a avut Tony Harrison m-au ajutat. Tony este un mare luptător. Te uiți la palmaresul lui și știi că poate să dea cu pumnul, dar eu sunt diferit. Asta m-a determinat să ieșesc pe primul loc și am încheiat prima luptă. Experiența pe care am avut-o în acele lupte îmi va oferi și mai mult avantaj în această luptă.

„Sunt atât de multe lucruri pe care le fac să mă cred că sunt cel mai bun din divizie. Pot continua și continua, dar sunt un leu în cușcă, dă-mi drumul să văd ce se întâmplă.

„Sunt puternic de la primul tur până la final. Dacă merge la 12, apoi merge atât de departe. Sunt deștept și știu să pregătesc capcane. Nu voi dezvălui planul de joc, dar nu mă joc în ring. ”

**JEISON ROSARIO:**

„Acesta va fi un mare război. Sunt dedicat și motivat pentru această luptă și știu ce înseamnă să te confrunți cu un luptător de calitate Jermell, deci antrenamentul a mers excelent. Sunt atât de gata.

„Sunt și mai înfometat acum decât eram înainte să câștig titlurile. Sunt mai motivat. Dorința din mine și focul din mine arde pentru a câștiga această luptă împotriva unui mare luptător din Jermell Charlo. Cum spun poporul dominican, „Trebuie să continuăm să mergem înainte” și asta intenționez să fac în această luptă.

„Jermell Charlo și Julian Williams sunt cu siguranță două tipuri diferite de luptători. Cred că Williams are ceva mai multă rapiditate, dar Jermell este cu siguranță mai puternic și are mai multă putere. De aceea a trebuit să mă pregătesc puțin diferit pentru această luptă. În ceea ce privește cine simt că este cel mai bun luptător - nu vreau să iau nimic de la niciun tip. Williams a fost un mare luptător și a fost considerat Nu. 1 când m-am luptat cu el, care este acum aceeași poziție în care se află Jermell Charlo. Amândoi au meritele lor, dar nu aș spune care este cel mai bun luptător. Jermell este considerat cel mai bun luptător de la 154 chiar acum.

„Un lucru care sa schimbat de la pierderea mea față de Nathaniel Gallimore în 2017 este maturitatea mea. Pe măsură ce luptele devin mai mari și mai importante, Cu siguranță am intensificat ocazia și provocarea. Mă antrenez mai greu și se concentrează mai mult asupra acestei lupte.

„Această luptă înseamnă foarte mult pentru mine. Este cu siguranță cea mai importantă luptă din cariera mea și sunt foarte recunoscător. Îi mulțumesc antrenorului meu și pentru această oportunitate care mi-a fost dată de a lupta cu cel mai bun luptător din divizie. Acesta este un moment minunat și unii oameni cred că nu voi câștiga. Știu că va fi electric.

„Consider că acesta este timpul meu. Imperiile cad. Președinții cad. Regatele cad. Totul este foarte interesant, deoarece sub marca Charlo, ai leul și ai vânătorul și toate astea. Dar în timpul luptei, veți afla cine este cu adevărat vânătorul. Sunt un războinic și vom vedea în acea noapte cine este cu adevărat vânătorul și cine este cel care va fi vânat ".

**AARON ALAMEDA:**

„Ne-am antrenat foarte greu și știm că avem un adversar dur în Luis Nery, dar suntem pregătiți pentru el.

„Cu toată sinceritatea, poate că numele pe care le vedeți pe hârtie cu care m-am confruntat nu sunt în clasa lui Nery, dar când mă vezi în septembrie 26, vei ști din ce sunt făcută.

„Este adevărat că Nery a mai avut probleme cu greutatea, dar asta este problema lui. Dacă face greutate sau dacă nu, Nu mă deranjează asta. Sunt concentrat pe ceea ce trebuie să fac în septembrie 26, așa că nu m-am concentrat cu adevărat asupra faptului dacă va face greutate. Eu sunt cel care va fi gata.

„Acesta este cu siguranță un progres pentru mine, nu negăm asta. Dar strategic, am lucrat la anumite lucruri despre care știm că vor ajuta să vină noaptea de luptă. Am văzut o mulțime de videoclipuri despre Luis Nery și am aflat cum trebuie să abordăm această luptă. Am văzut câteva lucruri pe care le putem face și asta vom face în septembrie 26.

„Au fost câțiva adversari pe care i-am luptat, care au fost dificili, dar unul în special a fost [Enrique] Gâște în Guadalajara. Lupta în orașul său natal și își avea oamenii în spate, dar noi am câștigat încă acea luptă. Persoana care m-a lovit cel mai tare? Numele lui a fost [Juan] Jimenez, și încă am depășit puterea pe care a arătat-o în acea noapte pentru a câștiga.

„Am luptat cu câțiva southpaws în cariera mea și de fapt mă simt mai bine împotriva southpaws decât mă lupt împotriva luptătorilor ortodocși.

„Nu există nicio îndoială că Nery este un pumn puternic, dar trebuie să vedem cum va ieși - dacă va ieși la box sau dacă va căuta imediat knockout-ul. Avem o strategie pentru orice fel de ieșire. Vom fi gata pentru asta. ”

**DANIEL ROMAN:**

„Totul merge excelent la antrenament. Am făcut unele ajustări din cauza pandemiei, dar voi fi la maximum în septembrie 26. Suntem doi foști campioni, deci aceasta va fi o luptă de calitate. Vom încerca să ne transformăm în noaptea noastră.

„Scopul este de a reveni la titlul mondial, dar nu trec cu vederea Payano. Este un luptător de calitate. Trebuie să trecem de el și apoi sperăm că vom putea revanșa cu Murodjon Akhmadaliev.

„Payano a pierdut în fața unor nume mari și luptători de calitate. Orice se poate întâmpla într-o luptă, așa că mă pregătesc pentru orice. Sunt pregătit să lupt cu cel mai bun Payano posibil. Nu-l iau ușor. Este ca și cum aș apăra centura împotriva unui alt campion mondial.

„Sunt mai concentrat ca niciodată acum. Nu credeam că mi-am pierdut ultima luptă, Am crezut că am luat-o. Acum mintea mea este pusă pe Payano, așa că continuăm să lucrăm la fel de mult ca atunci când eram campion. Este un pas la rând. Mai întâi este Payano, apoi vom vedea după aceea.

„Pierderea titlurilor mele m-a motivat și mai mult. Știu care este următorul meu obiectiv. Nu trec cu vederea Payano, dar urmăresc să obțin revanșa respectivă ”.

**JUAN CARLOS Payano:**

„Cu siguranță îl respectăm pe Danny Roman. E un mare luptător, dar aceasta este oportunitatea unei vieți. Ne-am antrenat din greu și veți vedea cel mai bun din Payano pentru această luptă.

„Am comis erori în cele două lupte pe care le-am pierdut în fața lui Inoue și Nery, unde m-au dus, dar am venit pregătiți știind că luptăm cu un alt luptător bun în Danny Roman și ne-am pregătit cu adevărat pentru a nu se întâmpla. din nou. Învățați din erorile dvs. în aceste lupte, așa că de aceea când ies, veți vedea un alt Juan Carlos Payano în septembrie 26.

„Întotdeauna am luptat din greu în toate luptele mele, dar mai ales aceasta pentru că ne uităm la sfârșitul carierei mele. Știu că am nevoie de o prezentare grozavă pentru fani, deci există cu siguranță o urgență suplimentară pentru a arăta ce e mai bun din mine.

„Un boxer nu dezvăluie niciodată ce va aduce în ring, dar cu siguranță voi fi mai precis. Ceea ce nu am avut în cele două pierderi ale mele. Nu pot fi prea disperat. Am constatat că eram disperat în acele două lupte când aș fi putut fi mai precis și să fac o treabă mai bună în acele aspecte ale luptei.

„Am boxat de când aveam șase ani și mi-am dat viața boxului. A fost o cursă grozavă. Îl respect enorm pe Danny Roman și oamenii se pot aștepta ca doi războinici să intre în ring în septembrie 26 și dă totul. Fanii știu că asta le dau întotdeauna și că noaptea aceea nu va diferi. ”

**DERRICK JAMES, Trainer Charlo lui:**

„Tabăra de antrenament a fost bună. Jermell a devenit din ce în ce mai bun. Am fost mulțumit de ceea ce văd și încă este devreme în cantonament. Vom continua să construim până la luptă. Știm că avem un tip foarte dur cu care ne confruntăm, dar cred că toată lumea cu care ne-am confruntat este dură. Mergem acolo pentru a fi la maxim.

„Cred că victoria ar fi frumoasă, dar nu mă gândesc ce ar face pentru mine. Cele mai bune lucruri este ceea ce ar însemna pentru Jermell să aibă trei curele. Este vorba despre moștenire. Este vorba despre o luptă de moștenire pentru Jermell și pentru mine.

„Rosario este un luptător bun. A avut o progresie treptată de când l-am privit luptându-se cu Justin DeLoach și apoi trecând la lupta cu Williams. Se îmbunătățește. Știm la ce ne uităm. Știm ca campion, s-ar putea să vină ca un luptător diferit. Deci trebuie să fim și mai buni. Este o provocare grozavă, dar așteptăm cu nerăbdare.

„Am văzut luptele lui Rosario înainte de Williams, așa că știam că va fi dur. Am fost surprins cum a scăzut deoarece Williams este un luptător puternic. Dar Rosario a arătat cu adevărat și a avut loviturile potrivite pentru al scoate de acolo. Ne așteptăm la un mare luptător pe 26 septembrie. ”

**LUIS "CHIRO" PEREZ, Trainerul lui Rosario:**

„Tabăra de antrenament a fost grozavă. Totul a mers exact așa cum am vrut și apoi ceva. Chiar și prin aceste vremuri, am reușit să facem toată tabăra de antrenament așa cum am dorit-o. Nu au existat obstacole.

„Jeison este mai puternic și mai inteligent ca niciodată. Așteptăm cu nerăbdare să arătăm că aparținem acestei competiții. Știm că este un ordin mare împotriva celui mai bun luptător de 154 de kilograme din lume, dar vrem poziția lui. El este omul din această categorie de greutate și vrem să dovedim lumii că aparținem la acel nivel.

„Jeison nu făcuse niciodată o adevărată tabără de antrenament în viața sa până de curând. S-a antrenat în orice fel ar putea să-și dea seama și ar lua multe lupte de ultim moment. Asta s-a schimbat pentru lupta lui Williams și asta s-a schimbat pentru această luptă. Tot ce a depășit, a terminat cu dorință. Acum face tabăra de antrenament adecvată și mănâncă în modul potrivit. Cred că trebuie să-l elimini pe Rosario pentru a-l bate. Septembrie 26, vom vedea dacă am dreptate. ”

**STEPHEN Espinoza, Președintele, Programare sport și evenimente, Showtime Networks Inc.:**

"De sus pana jos, acesta este cardul de cea mai înaltă calitate cu care am fost asociat vreodată. In ultimii ani, au existat o mulțime de companii noi și o mulțime de activitate în box și chiar cu toți banii, ofertele, companiile, și tot ce se presupune că aduc la masă, nimeni nu a făcut acest gen de evenimente. Nimeni altcineva nu face cărți la acest nivel — atât de mare și cu atât de multă calitate. Acesta este un eveniment pentru adevăratul fan al luptei. Campion mondial după campion mondial, o colecție a unora dintre cei mai buni luptători din lume, pe o singură carte. şase lupte, cinci dintre ele luptă pentru titlul mondial, totul pe un singur pay-per-view.

„Aceasta este o carte plină de banger. Cea care nu este o luptă pentru titlul mondial, the one between Danny Roman and Juan Carlos Payano, is a matchup between a former unified champion and a former world champion – so there’s no shortage of accomplishments there. You have unbeaten former champion Luis Nery, who is coming off a streak of 11 consecutive knockouts, moving up into a new weight class to take on undefeated Aaron Alameda. Our second main event of the evening, Jermell Charlo and Jeison Rosario, like the first one, is a matchup between the top two boxers currently fighting in the division. We don’t need exaggeration or hyperbole. Pur și simplu pune, this is the best fight that can be made in the super welterweight division.”

**LAS VEGAS** (Iulie 21, 2019) – Boxing’s only eight-division world champion, **Senator Manny “PacMan” Pacquiao** scăzut **Keith “O Dată” Thurman** in round one and won a close split decision to earn a welterweight world title in the main event of a Premier Boxing Champions on FOX Sports Pay-Per-View event Saturday night from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.

“It was fun,” said Pacquiao. “My opponent is a good fighter and boxer. El a fost puternic. I’m not that kind of boxer who talks a lot; we were just promoting the fight. I think he did his best, and I did my best. I think we made the fans happy tonight because it was a good fight.”

The sell-out crowd of 14,356 got treated to great action from the start, as an exciting first round was capped off by Pacquiao dropping Thurman for the first time in his career with a straight right hand late in the round.

“I knew it was too close,” Said Thurman. “He got the knockdown so he had momentum in round one.”

Thurman made it into the second round but continued to have trouble with Pacquiao’s right hand, as the future Hall of Famer threw it successfully as a jab and a power punch throughout the fight. Thurman adjusted in the middle rounds and began to try to smother Pacquiao and walk him down, having success when he was able to get his combinations off before his opponent.

Despite blood pouring from his nose from round four on, Thurman was able to land powerful combinations on Pacquiao for much of the second half of the fight, but was never able to hurt Pacquiao or score a knockdown of his own.

“I wish I had a little bit more output to go toe to toe,” Said Thurman. “I felt like he was getting a little bit tired, but he did have experience in the ring. My conditioning and my output was just behind Manny Pacquiao’s. I would love the rematch.”

In round 10, Pacquiao’s landed a strong left hook to the body that clearly hurt Thurman and forced him to spend much of the remainder of the round backpedaling. The CompuBox scores were indicative of the close nature of the fight, with Thurman out landing Pacquiao 210 pentru 195, while Pacquiao was busier throwing 686 pumni la 571 from Thurman.

“I really love the fans,” said Pacquiao. “Thank you so much for coming here and witnessing the fight. I’m sure they were happy tonight because they saw a good fight. Even though Thurman lost, he did his best. He’s not an easy opponent. He’s a good boxer and he’s strong. I was just blessed tonight.”

Watch the round 10 evidenția AICI

Pacquiao had a large advantage in jabs landed, conectarea la 82 to Thurman’s 18. The 192 power punches landed by Thurman was the most in 43 Pacquiao fights that CompuBox has tracked. Round-by-round, the two fighters were only separated by more than five landed punches in rounds two, seven and nine.

După 12 runde, the judges reached a split decision, with one judge scoring the fight 114-113 for Thurman, overruled by two judges scoring it 115-112 for Pacquiao, who captured the WBA Welterweight World Championship at 40-years-old.

“You get blessings and lessons,” Said Thurman. “Tonight was a blessing and a lesson. Thank you everybody, and thank you Manny Pacquiao.”

“Cred (I will fight) next year,” said Pacquiao. “I will go back to the Philippines and work and then make a decision. I do hope to be at the (Errol) Spence vs. (Shawn) Porter fight on September 28.”

The co-main event of the pay-per-view saw top contender **Yordenis Ugas** (24-4, 11 KO) drop previously unbeaten **Omar Figueroa** (28-1-1, 19 KO) on his way to a unanimous decision in their WBC welterweight title eliminator.

Ugas got off to a strong start, connecting on a straight right hand that sent Figueroa into the ropes, which he held onto so he didn’t hit the canvas, but enough that referee Russell Mora ruled it a knockdown.

“The fight played out how I thought it would,” said Ugas. “I came out strong and Figueroa was tough as well. This was similar to the fight everyone expected. I came out on top.”

Figueroa recovered and was able to make it to round two, where he continued his strategy of coming forward to try to hurt Ugas on the inside. Ugas was able to control that action on the inside, landing numerous uppercuts to stun Figueroa. Totuși, the inside fighting led to Ugas being deducted a point by the referee in round five for holding.

“Ugas fought a smart fight,” Said Figueroa. “He was smothering me on the inside and holding. I thought the scores were too wide. I was following him and working the whole time. I felt like he only worked the last 30 seconds of the round, but I guess that was all it took.

“I didn’t have any problems with his size. I thought I was able to do my thing, but when he was holding me I couldn’t get my offense going.”

Despite that, and being warned later in the fight for delivering low blows, Ugas dominated the fight according to CompuBox, out landing Figueroa 229 pentru 131 and connecting with 28% of his punches, to Figueroa’s 22%.

“I knew Figueroa was a tough guy, so I didn’t want to waste my energy trying to take him out early,” said Ugas. “I was ready to go 12 rounds.”

După 12 runde, all three judges scored the fight the same, 119-107 in favor of Ugas, who became the mandatory for the winner of the Errol Spence Jr. vs. Shawn Porter welterweight title unification.

“I’m extremely happy to be in this position to fight for the WBC title again,” said Ugas. “I will be ready for the winner of Errol Spence Jr. vs. Shawn Porter.”

Additional action saw former world champion **Sergey Lipinets** (16-1, 12 KO) score a highlight-reel knockout against **Jayar Inson** (18-3, 12 KO) in the second round of their welterweight matchup.

Lipinets was originally scheduled to fight John Molina Jr., before Molina pulled out of the fight Friday morning due to a back injury. Inson, who was scheduled to fight on the non-televised undercard, stepped up to the challenge.

“When I first heard the news about Molina, I knew that I wanted to still fight on a show of this magnitude,” said Lipinets. “As far as fighting a southpaw, I’ve had so many amateur fights in my kickboxing career that I had no problem adjusting. A fost doar o chestiune de timp. I also have sparred with great southpaws like Victor Ortiz throughout my career, so I was comfortable with the change in fighter.”

In an exchange early in the second round, Lipinets landed a clean left hook to Inson’s head, which sent the Filipino-fighter to the canvas. Although Inson got to his feet, referee Jay Nady waved off the bout 57 secunde în runda.

“I got hit and I slipped, that made it look worse,” said Inson. “When I stood up I thought I was fine and tried to raise my hands and show the referee.”

“Joe Goossen is an exceptional trainer and he just told me to work from a different direction facing a southpaw,” said Lipinets. “I just made sure to block his punches with my elbows. That was the only adjustment I had to make and it ended up working just fine.”

The opening pay-per-view bout saw undefeated former champion **Luis Nery** (30-0, 24 KO) deliver a ninth-round knockout of former bantamweight champion **Juan Carlos Payano** (21-3, 9 KO).

“I wasn’t really paying attention to how long the fight was going, I was just getting into a rhythm as it went on,” said Nery. “I had to work hard to get to him because he’s a good boxer. The longer it went, the better I felt. I put my punches together well once I got going.”

In a fast-paced duel of former champions, Payano had success early boxing the aggressive Nery, moving back to avoid his attack and landing his own offense against the knockout artist. Payano out landed or was even in punches landed for each of the first six rounds of the bout.

“I’m a warrior and I wanted to keep going and fight back every time he came forward,” said Payano. “My coach wanted me to stay behind my jab a little more.”

As the fight grew into the middle rounds, Nery began to increase the offense and was able to land power shots that slowed Payano’s ability to box from the outside. Nery hurt Payano early in round seven, eventually dominating the round, out landing his opponent 22 pentru 7.

“He was a very complicated fighter at the beginning, he’s a veteran, so I had to try to adapt to his style to see how I could get in,” said Nery. “In the fifth or sixth round I started gaining control of the fight and then that left hook came to the body which was devastating.”

“During the exchanges it was Nery’s second shot that was getting in,” said Payano. “We corrected the issue but then that body shot came in from nowhere and hit me in a rib that I had broken years ago against Raushee Warren.”

Round eight saw Nery continue to break Payano down, most notably landing a big left hand midway through the round that caused blood to pour from Payano’s nose. During an exchange in the ninth-round, Payano landed a devastating left hook to the ribs that put Payano down. He was unable to recover and referee Vic Drakulich halted the bout 1:43 în runda.

“I wanted to get him out early,” said Nery. “But this showed that I do have the experience to go into the later rounds and still take out my opponent. I showed that I have good defense and can make adjustments.”

The FOX PBC Fight Night main event on FOX and FOX Deportes saw IBF Super Middleweight World Champion **Caleb “Mâini dulci” Plantă** (19-0, 11 KO) retain his title with a dominant third-round knockout over previously unbeaten **Mike Lee** (21-1, 11 KO).

“It went exactly how I planned it would go,” Said Plant. “Absolut. I’ve been telling you all week it wasn’t going to go 12 rounds and I stuck to my word and I tried to do that. I hope you guys had a good time.”

Plant got off to a fast-start, dropping Lee with a left hook late in the first round. The unbeaten challenger was able to recover and survive the round, but was hard-pressed to make up for the hand speed advantage of Plant.

“I think I have a high boxing IQ and I do this at a really high level,” Said Plant. “So it was just about making adjustments. E o mare, strong guy and he just came in here to give it his all.”

Lee looked to charge in hard against Plant and use his size and power to land a big shot and change the momentum of the fight. Plant was sharp and avoided the looping right hands that Lee was attacking with.

“The speed was the difference, he’s fast and very accurate,” a declarat Lee. “I had some success with my right hands but wasn’t able to be consistent with it.”

În turul trei, Plant landed a vicious right hook early in the round that put Lee down for the second time. After a left hook appeared to connect and send Lee down a second time, referee Robert Byrd ruled it had come from a push and continued the fight once Lee got to his feet.

Plant had his opponent hurt and continued to press forward, eventually landing another left hook that put Lee down, this time forcing the referee to wave off the bout 1:29 în runda.

“I had no issue with the stoppage, that’s the referee’s job and I respect it,” a declarat Lee.

După lupta, Benavidez was asked about a possible unification fight against the winner of the just announced Anthony Dirrell vs. David Benavidez WBC Super Middleweight Championship fight.

“Oh yeah, we can definitely unify,” Said Plant. “I ain’t hard to get a hold of. I ain’t hard to make a fight with. Come see me. You know my advisor.”

The opening bout on FOX and FOX Deportes saw **Efe Ajagba** (11-0, 9 KO) score a unanimous decision over **Ali Eren Demirezen** (11-1, 10 KO) in a 10-round battle of undefeated heavyweights. It was the first time that two unbeaten fighters from the 2016 Olympics faced off as pros.

Ajagba used his jab and height effectively throughout the fight, aterizare 10 de 45 jabs per round, doubling the heavyweight average. Totuși, an elbow injury and the accurate punching of Demirezen forced Ajagba to go the distance for the first time as a pro.

“This was the first fighter to take me the distance,” said Ajagba. “He was strong and could take my punches. My trainer just told me to keep using my jab and stay in the middle of the ring.

“I hurt my elbow early on, so I couldn’t shoot my right hand like I wanted. But I won’t use that as an excuse. As a tall man I had to use the jab and if it went the distance, that was my best way to win.”

Demirezen thought the scorecards should have been closer and believed that his performance should have garnered him more than the decision loss. Demirezen was actually the more accurate puncher, aterizare 26% of his punches to 22% from Ajagba.

“I don’t agree with the scores, especially 99-91” said Demirezen. “It was much closer. I feel that at minimum, it was a draw. I knew I had to knock him out and that a knockout might be easier than winning by points. I thought it was a good performance but I can do better. I’d like to fight in the U.S. din nou.”

Ajagba’s activity from start to finish was impressive, as he threw 877 totalul pumni, aterizare 191. While Demirezen was not far behind with 149 punches landed, he only out landed Ajagba in three rounds.

După 10 rounds of action all three judges scored the fight in favor of Ajagba, de zeci de 99-91 de două ori și 97-93.

I also had the opportunity to make a statement. I did that by stopping him in only three rounds.”

“Bundu was a switch-hitting awkward fighter. I switched [to southpaw] on him in the first round and dropped him with a right hand,” Said Thurman. “I out boxed him and really gave the world a taste of how good of a boxer I am. It was an easy blowout.”

Is Keith Thurman still Keith ‘One Time’ Thurman after some vulnerability against Josesito Lopez?” Said Thurman, rhetorically speaking. “Desigur, I’d like to get the knockout or TKO, but either way, you’re going to see a world class performance that has me standing alone on top of a division that has so many great fighters. I’m trying to be that great, devastating champion once again, and come July 20, I will prove that I am.”

Chaves failed to beat the count as Thurman became a 147-pound titleholder.

“The Diego Chaves fight was the biggest fight of my career, elevating me to the WBA interim champion,” Said Thurman. “I broke him down round by round and landed a beautiful body shot in the ninth round and after that it was a matter of time. That was a fight that earned me worldwide respect and was the start of everything for me.”

Hurt by a hard right in the first round, Thurman recovered, flooring Soto Karass with a left uppercut in the fifth and again from a powerful combination in the ninth as the referee ended matters.

“Soto Karass was coming off a victory over Andre Berto which made it an important measuring stick fight for me,” Said Thurman, “He did open the fight by tagging me in the first round, but I dropped him in the fifth and again in the ninth and was able to finish him off for my first title defense.”

**RTD 3 Julio Diaz, Aprilie 26, 2014, StubHub Center, Carson, Calif:** In a one-sided beat-down, former champion Diaz took a knee from a left to the temple the second round and retired prior to the fourth from a body shot that caused rib damage. Diaz never fought again.

“That was a tremendous fight for me as the headliner in my first main event,” Said Thurman. “Diaz was coming off of good showings against Shawn Porter, fighting Porter to a draw once, and Amir Khan, whom he dropped in their fight. I also had the opportunity to make a statement. I did that by stopping him in only three rounds.”

**UD 12 Leonard Bundu, Decembrie 13, 2014, the MGM Grand Garden Arena, Las Vegas:** A previously unbeaten 40-year-old switch-hitting veteran, Bundu (31-1-2, 11 KO) was dropped by a first-round right hand in a shutout victory (120-107 de trei ori) for Thurman who ended an eight-month ring absence and was recovering from an injured left shoulder.

“Manny Pacquiao has been my favorite fighter since I’ve been a pro and I’m very excited to be fighting on this pay-per-view,” said Payano. “I even nicknamed myself ‘Baby Pacquiao,’ so this is a special honor. Fighting Luis Nery is also a great opportunity for me. Luis is a very hungry, strong fighter looking to regain his championship status. Din păcate, he is not going to do that with me.

Gaballo Captures First World Championship with Unanimous Decision over Young in “Rumble at the Rock” at Seminole Hard Rock Hollywood

Martie 27, 2018 FNU47 Lasă un comentariu

Reymart “GenSan Assassin” Gaballo of General Santos City, Filipine, captured his first version of a world title and introduced himself to the world stage with a unanimous decision victory over perennial top contender Stephon “Showstopper” Tineri Sf. Louis.

Fighting in the main event of Kris Lawrence and The Heavyweight Factory’s “Rumble at the Rock” at Hard Rock Event Center at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Cazinoul din Hollywood, Florida, the hard-punching Gaballo (19-0, 16 KO) became the WBA Interim World Bantamweight Champion with unanimous scores of 118-109, 117-110 și 117-110.

Tineri, acum 17-1-3, 7 KO, was down in round three and badly hurt, but to his credit, got up and kept it exciting and closer than the scores indicate throughout the remainder of the 12 runde.

The speed and reflexes of 19-year-old Honolulu-based welterweight prospect Logan “Korican Kid” Yoon (11-0, 10 KO) overcame the determination and experience of former two-time world champion Juan Carlos Salgado (27-8-1, 16 KO) of Mexico City over 10 workmanlike rounds.

Fighting for the NABO Super Lightweight Championship, Yoon showed surprising poise and maturity for a young fighter in his 11th fight and seemed unphased to be facing such an accomplished foe. His sharp counters landed with regularity on the tough former champion. Pentru credit lui, Salgado fought bravely, but at 33 ani, seems to have lost a step.

Scorurile au fost 100-89, 97-92 și 98-91, unanimously for Yoon.

Former WBA World Super Bantamweight Champion Juan Carlos Payano survived a real scare against “Magic” Mike Plania in their 10-round brawl for the NABO Super Bantamweight Championship.

After a strong first couple rounds, Plania, acum 14-1, 7 KO, had Payano down and badly hurt near the end of round three.

He never really threatened Payano again. A consummate professional, Payano (20-1, 9 KO), of Miami via La Vega, Republica Dominicană, came out for round four with the answers for neutralizing the harder punches of his Philippine opponent and never lost another round.

Scorurile au fost 96-93, 97-92 și 97-92, unanimously for the new champion Payano.

The 6-foot 9-inch heavyweight from Kissimmee, Florida, via Rudniy, Kazahstan, Ivan Dychko (7-0, 6 KO) scored a highlight-reel first-round, one-punch knockout over Miami Beach’s formerly undefeated Stephan Kirnon (2-1, 2 KO).

Kirnon, admirably, came out aggressive against the giant, but quickly ran into a shot that propelled him violently into the floor. The fight was immediately waved off at :38. Dychko, a two-time Olympic Super Heavyweight Bronze medallist, could not have been more impressive.

In a 10-round battle for the NABA-USA Featherweight Championship Miami via Ekibastuz, Kazakhstan bomber Mussa “Warrior” Tursyngaliyev (8-0, 7 KO) clubbed away at brave, but outgunned Luis “Barcelo” Hinojosa (31-14, 18 KO) de Santo Domingo, Republica Dominicană, until stopping him at the end of round three.

Tursyngaliyev is very strong and accurate, and he had things all his way throughout. He scored a knockdown in the second and finished it a round later. Hinojosa elected to stay on his stool, probably wisely.

Miami super welterweight JD “Destul Boy” Martinez (9-0, 7 KO)

managed to squeak out a questionable majority six-round decision over fellow Floridian Jose “Colombian Necktie” Cortes (3-2, 1 KO) of West Palm Beach.

Cortes chased Martinez around the ring, seemingly with the harder punches and a more aggressive demeanor, but it was not enough to please the judges. They scored it 57-57 draw against 58-56 și 58-56 for Martinez.

Popular Miami welterweight Harold Calderon (15-0, 9 KO) took a round or two to settle in against Barranquilla, Colombia’s Ronald “Sălbatic” Montes (18-8, 16 KO), dar, once he got his rhythm, it was all over.

The powerful undefeated southpaw lobbed enough accurate bombs to convince his Colombian foe to pack it in at the end of third round of their scheduled six. The official result is TKO 3 la 2:59. Calderon is ready for deeper water.

In an entertaining all-Florida super bantamweight bout, Miami’s popular Jessy “Beast Boy” Cross (12-7-1, 5 KO) and Palm Bay’s Sam Rodriquez (5-2, 3 KO) slugged it out over six exciting rounds.

În cele din urmă, Rodriquez took a razor-thin unanimous decision (58-55, 57-56 și 57-56) on the strength of a fourth-round knockdown.

Fighting out of the southpaw stance, the heavily muscled Cruz got out to an early lead and rocked the smaller Rodriquez with his thudding left hand. But Rodriquez hung tough and clawed back into it by round three.

The pair went back and forth the entire fight and it could have gone either way.

Former WBO Asia Pacific Light Heavyweight Champion Steve “The Ambassador” Geffrard (17-2, 12 KO) of Boca Raton stopped Budapest, Hungary’s Zoltan Sera (38-16-1, 20 KO) in the fourth of a scheduled six.

For the first three rounds, Geffrard, who lost his first two fights and hasn’t lost since, shook off the rust and kept his composure against the awkward offerings of his European foe. He finally broke through in the fourth, scoring two knockdowns and prompting Referee Sam Burgos to wave it off at :39.

Miami’s Jorge De Jesus Romero (5-0, 4 KO) put on a bodyshot clinic in his abbreviated six-round super bantamweight battle against Hungarian veteran Szilveszter Ajtai (12-10-1, 2 KO).

In the first, Romero came forward like an aggressive buzzsaw against the circling Ajtai. A doua, he lowered the boom, scoring three consecutive bodyshot knockdowns, and necessitating a stoppage at 2:01. Impressive showing for the Florida prospect.

The son of a legend, Robert Duran Jr. of Fort Lauderdale made his impressive professional welterweight debut by stopping Orlando’s also debuting Miguel Morales în al patrulea tur de scrutin.

Morales was no pushover, but Duran, looking like he already has some seasoning, put educated combinations together and waited for his opening. It came in the final stanza, as he scored his first knockdown of Morales with a right to the body left uppercut combo, and then finished things off with a thudding right hand that produced a second knockdown.

Referee James Warring waved it off without a count at 2:21.
