SHEFFIELD (Květen 24) – Kell Brook will make his fourth IBF Welterweight World Title defense against U.S. star Errol Spence Jr. at Bramall Lane in Sheffield, England this sobota květen 27, žít na SHOWTIME (5:15 p.m. ET/2:15 p.m. PT).

 

Potok (36-1, 25 KO) and mandatory challenger Spence, (21-0, 18 KO), clash on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING in one of the biggest fights in the 147-pound division, and the elite pairing are promising to deliver an electric night of action.

 

Both fighters participated in a public media workout today, Středa, at Peace Gardens in Sheffield, Anglie. Below is what they had to say:

 

KELL BROOK

“We are going to rock Sheffield v sobotu noc. Jsem připraven, I’m pumped, Už se nemůžu dočkat.

 

“There is a lot of pressure but I always perform better under pressure. I’m meant to be on the big stage, I’m ready for the pressure and to see the bright lights.

 

"[Errol Spence] is a serious dude from America, he’s a young hungry lion, but he’s not beaten anyone like me. I’m a champion and I’ve been a champion. I’m defending. I know both sides of the coin, I’ve prepared very well.

 

“I’m ready for a war. And that’s what you’re going to see – a war Sobota noc. There are going to be two winners Sobota noc: that is going to be myself and everyone watching.

 

“There’s no way he can beat me. I’m a man possessed and I have a serious job to do. This is my night to shine.

 

"Miluji to." [being the underdog]. I was born for it. People don’t have me winning this fight, but that just gives me the extra energy I need to go out and prove them all wrong.

 

“This guy is a talented guy, but he’s never been tested. He’s never been in with someone who is so determined like me. Who’s bigger, silnější, who has all this energy, who’s meant for this game, who’s meant to be a winner. He hasn’t been in with someone with that mindset, and that’s what I’m coming to bring v sobotu.

 

“All the hard work has been done. The talking will stop; we’re ready to let some fireworks fly now.

 

“I can see us both maybe hitting the canvas. You’re going to be on the edge of your seat from round one. He’s not going to take a backwards step, and I’m not [ať už]. All I can say is it’s going to be a thriller.

 

“I’ve arrived. Je to splněný sen. It’s going to be so perfect for me that night to walk out and just see everyone. The electricity is going to be phenomenal.”

 

ERROL SPENCE JR.

 

“This is my time, this is my era. To je můj čas zazářit. This is my time to get the belts, this is my time to unify and become the undisputed welterweight champion of the world. This is just another stepping stone to get to where I want to be.

 

"Já jsem 100 procent připravený, Já jsem 100 percent focused, and I’m 100 percent ready to give the fans what they want, which is a real great fight.

 

“I can’t let the fans get to me. I’m not worried about him having his hometown fans. Eventually everyone will be my fans by the end of the night.

 

“I don’t feel the pressure at all. I feel like there is more pressure on him because he’s fighting at home. Of course there’s pressure on me to win, but I welcome that pressure. It’s going to do nothing but motivate me, make me more hungry and make we want to win even more.

 

“You just have to have that ‘it’ factor, and I think I have it. I’m not worried about the crowd, I’m not worried about the boos or anything like that.

 

“It’s a good step-up. Kell Brook is a good fighter, he has great skills. I welcome this step-up – I’ve been asking for it for a long time and I’m finally getting my opportunity.

 

“My confidence comes from my hard work. I know the hours and time that I put in the gym.”

 

“This is an ideal situation. I would be disappointed if I was fighting someone else because he vacated. Jsem opravdový bojovník, Chci bojovat nejlepší, I want to fight the champion and earn it the right way. I can’t wait to prove I am one of the best fighters in the welterweight division.

 

“I’ve been on the USA team for a long time. Jako amatér, representing U.S. in the Olympics and as a pro having this USA patch on me and fighting for my country. cítím Sobota is kind of like a USA vs UK battle. And U.S.A. is going to win.”

Hall of Famer Sugar Ray Leonard, Keith Thurman, Danny Garcia, Shawn Porter & More Discuss The Latest In Series Of Welterweight Blockbusters

 

SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING® Live At 5:15 p.m. A/2:15 p.m. PT From Bramall Lane In Sheffield, Anglie

 

NEW YORK (Květen 23, 2017) – IBF Welterweight World Champion Kell Brook and undefeated rising star Errol Spence face off tuto sobotu žít na SHOWTIME (5:15 p.m. A/2:15 p.m. PT) in the latest in a series of significant welterweight matchups between the best fighters in one of boxing’s deepest divisions.

 

Six of the top eight welterweights in the world* will have fought in the first five months of 2017 – all on SHOWTIME or CBS – as a de facto tournament continues in the 147-pound class to determine the No. 1 fighter in a division long controlled by the retired Floyd Mayweather.

*Zdroj: Transnational Boxing Rankings

 

WBA and WBC Welterweight World Champion Keith Thurman unified the titles on Březen 4 with a split-decision victory over Danny Garcia in a rare matchup of undefeated champions. Lamont Peterson picked up the secondary WBA Regular title on Únor. 18, a na Duben 22 Shawn Porter knocked out Andre Berto to become the mandatory challenger to Thurman’s WBC belt. The remaining welterweight champion, Manny Pacquiao, is set to defend his WBO title against Jeff Horn on Červenec 2.

 

Now it’s Brook and Spence’s turn to take center stage in boxing’s glamour division.

 

Tuto sobotu v Sheffieldu, Anglie, Potok (36-1, 25 KO) will make the fourth defense of the IBF belt he won via majority decision over Porter in 2014. Ten 31letý, který nikdy nebyl sražen, will be the decided hometown favorite in front of what is expected to be 25,000-plus fans in the first world title fight in the 162-year history of Bramall Lane.

 

The 27-year-old Spence (21-0, 18 KO) has long been considered one of boxing’s most prized prospects. The IBF’s No. 1 contender has knocked out eight straight opponents and has improved as his level of opposition has risen – his last six opponents held an impressive combined record of 151 wins against just eight losses. The Dallas resident travels abroad for this long-awaited title opportunity as he attempts to become the first American to dethrone an Englishman on British soil in nearly a decade.**

 

With both Spence and Brook affirming their intention to unify the division after Květen 27, see below for what legendary Hall of Famer Sugar Ray Leonard and current top welterweights have to say about Sobotní IBF title matchup.

 

SUGAR RAY LEONARD – Former Undisputed Welterweight World Champion

“I’m really excited about this fight in particular, mainly because both fighters have to be on their A-game. I know there is talk about Kell’s eye surgery being a psychological problem, but from personal experience, I don’t see that being the case. I never thought about my eye once the doctor gave me the green light.

 

“To ask me who is going to win this fight, I have my favorite in Errol Spence. Ale, based on the each fighter’s physical artillery, one punch can turn the tables around. Jak již bylo řečeno, I am going to sit back and watch a great night of boxing.”

 

KEITH THURMAN – Unified WBA & WBC Welterweight World Champion

“This is an interesting fight. I have not followed Kell too much, but I have obviously seen Errol fight in the U.S. Errol is a tough, young fighter who is just getting into the public’s eye, and Kell obviously has the strength of the British crowd on his side.

 

“It should be a tough fight that really speaks to the strength of the welterweight division. Both fighters are men that I would be open to fighting as I continue to unify the division in 2018. As a fight fan, let’s see what’s ‘Special’ about Kell Brook, and we’ll see if Errol Spence can show us he’s ‘The Truth.’ It should be a great fight and I’ll be watching.”

 

DANNY GARCIA – Former Welterweight World Champion

“I think this is a 50/50 boj. I think the person with the better game plan is going to win. There is a lot of pressure to go into someone’s backyard like Spence is doing, and he’s never faced a fighter in his prime before like Brook. It is definitely a test for him and a big step up in competition. If he is ready, he can do it. He just has to go in there and stay focused.

 

“The welterweight division is the best division in boxing. I still feel like I am one of the best welterweights in the world even though I came up short. I never thought I would say a loss would make me stronger because I didn’t see myself losing. I want my titles back and to be seen as the best in the best division.”

 

SHAWN PORTER – Former Welterweight Champion & Current WBC No. 1 Contender

“I’m glad Errol is getting his title shot, and I’m happy he’s going to England for it. I’m obviously pulling for the American. Errol is a phenomenal athlete and a great boxer. I think he’s ready to show the world something, but Kell is right up there in that top tier of welterweights. People who tune in should be thrilled. I know I’m looking forward to it.

 

“The welterweight division is awesome, shora dolů. We’re right where we need to be and should be. Boxing returning back to the masses with PBC came at the perfect time for me and the rest of the top welterweights. There are so many of us capable of winning a title right now.”

 

LAMONT PETERSON – WBA (Pravidelný) Welterweight World Champion

“This is going to be a tough fight, but I think Errol should win. At least I’m pulling for Errol to win. He’s got to overcome the idea that there will probably be 30,000 people cheering against him, so he has to show the judges that he deserves to win.

 

“Brook is a good fighter and is going to bring his best, but I think Errol, in the end, is the better fighter. But he will have to prove it.

 

“The welterweight division is one of the best in boxing right now. We’ve got a lot of good fighters in their prime making the division strong. And guys are willing to fight each other. We are seeing the kind of fights the fans want to see. If this keeps up it could bring boxing back to where it was in the days when Sugar Ray Leonard, Roberto Duran, Thomas Hearns and Marvin Hagler all fought each other. So it’s really good for boxing right now.”

 

**Timothy Bradley dethroned another Sheffield native, Junior Witter, v 2008 in Nottingham.

KELL BROOK TO DEFEND IBF WELTERWEIGHT TITLE AGAINST UNDEFEATED ERROL SPENCE ON SATURDAY, KVĚTEN 27 LIVE ON SHOWTIME®

SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING® Live From Bramall Lane In Sheffield, Anglie

 

Kell Brook will defend his IBF World Welterweight title against U.S. star Errol Spence at Bramall Lane in Sheffield on sobota květen 27, live on Sky Sports Box Office and live on SHOWTIME in the U.S. na SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING.

 

Brook makes the fourth defense of his beloved IBF strap he landed in the U.S. v srpnu 2014 with a career-best win over Shawn Porter. He then blitzed Jo Jo Dan, Frankie Gavin and Kevin Bizier before stepping up to middleweight to face fearsome Kazakh Gennady Golovkin at The O2 in September. Nyní, the Sheffield star welcomes another unbeaten superstar into the ring.

 

Undefeated Spence became the mandatory challenger for Brook’s belt when he blasted Leonard Bundu inside six rounds in August, the eighth straight stoppage win for the Texas-based New Yorker who destroyed Chris Algieri inside four rounds two months earlier.

 

Brook and Spence now clash in one of the biggest fight in the 147-pound division, and the elite pairing are promising to deliver an electric night at the home of Sheffield United FC.

 

“I’m so excited about this fight and also about making history in my city,"Řekl Brook. “It’s long been a dream of mine to fight outdoors at Bramall Lane and I’m pleased to do that in the biggest fight in the welterweight division. I saw many people talk about how I would avoid Errol Spence – they don’t know me, they don’t know what I’m about. All I’ve ever wanted to do is to give the fans the fights they want and they have it right here on Květen 27. I’m going to show the world that I’m the best welterweight on the planet and I’m going to do it right before my people’s eyes.”

 

“I’m happy I’m finally getting an opportunity to accomplish a lifelong dream of becoming a world champion,“Uvedl Spence. “I feel that this is one of the best and biggest fights in world boxing and I am 100 percent focused and determined to bring the belt back home to the U.S. Na Květen 27, I will be more than ready.”

 

“This is one of the best fights in world boxing,” said Brook’s promoter Eddie Hearn. “Many believed that Kell Brook would look to avoid Errol Spence but he is a proud man who never ducks a challenge. Coming off the fight with GGG this is an extremely tough fight to come back to but I believe Kell Brook is the best welterweight in the world and he will have the chance to prove it on Květen 27. It’s ‘The Special One’ vs ‘The Truth’, a historic event at Sheffield United’s Bramall Lane – we are planning an unforgettable night.”

 

“This is great news for Kell and Sheffield United,” said Sheffield United director Scott McCabe. “We have been working with Matchroom for some time to bring this high profile fight to our Bramall Lane stadium where we have exciting plans to stage further significant events utilising the high standard facilities that have been developed by the Club in recent years.”

 

Tickets will go on sale to Matchroom Fight Pass members at 10 a.m. na Čtvrtek, Březen 30 via StubHub.

 

Tickets go on general sale at 10 a.m. na Pátek, Březen 31 via the Sheffield United FC Box Office.

Olympic men’s basketball team’s gold medal-winning performance, Spence Jr.’s fight posted a peak audience of 6.34 million viewers and averaged 4.8 million viewers for the entire hour. This fight is the highest-rated PBC fight to-date.
Spence-Bundu drew the largest television audience for boxing v 18 léta (Srpen 21, 2016 proti. Březen 23, 1998).
“I knew this would be the most important fight of my career and the goal was to not just win, but to put on a spectacular one-sided performance,” řekl Spence Jr. “It felt good to go out there and give everyone watching a great show and to do it in front of such a large television audience makes it even better.

BROOKLYN (Srpen 21, 2016) – Neporažený stoupající hvězda Errol “Pravda” Spence Jr. (21-0-, 18 KO) moved one step closer to a world title as he delivered a thunderous sixth-round knockout of tough Italian contender Leonard “The Lion” Bundu (33-2-2, 12 KO) Sunday afternoon in the main event of Champions Premier Boxerské (PBC)na NBC z Ford Amphitheater na Coney Island Boardwalk v Brooklynu.
S knockoutem, Spence Jr. becomes the mandatory challenger for undefeated welterweight Kell Brook and showed his willingness to step in the ring with Brook.
“I definitely want my shot at Kell Brook and his title,” řekl Spence Jr. “I want him next. If he vacates or gets stripped then I’ll fight for his vacant title. I’ve paid my dues.”
In a prime spot that immediately followed the U.S. Men’s basketball team winning Olympic gold in Rio, the Dallas-native started patiently, measuring his opponent with steady jabs. Bundu came ready to fight and tried to make it difficult for Spence Jr. by switching stances and attacking from awkward angles.
“I was a little shakey in the first round and second rounds,” řekl Spence Jr. “He’s very awkward and I was trying to feel him out.”
Spence Jr. began to pick up his power punching as the rounds went on and started to connect with left uppercuts and hooks. After round four, Bundu returned to his corner with swelling beginning to show up over his right eye.
“Once I was able to catch his rhythm and figure him out, I knew I had him,” řekl Spence Jr. “I knew he was very tough, but he never hurt me. He was switching and jumping in and out and it took me a little bit to adjust to.”
The dominance with his power punches began to wear Bundu down as the fight entered the sixth. After seemingly scoring a knockdown, which was ruled a slip by referee Johnny Callas, Spence Jr. quickly pounced on Bundu and trapped him in the corner.
“He certainly lived up to the hype,” řekl Bundu, who was taken to the hospital for evaluation after the fight. “Errol was more precise than Keith Thurman. Errol threw more punches and was fresh in every round.”
It didn’t take long for Spence Jr. to take advantage as he hit Bundu with a hard left uppercut and followed with a crushing right hook that put Bundu on the mat for good and forced the referee to stop the fight at 2:06 of the sixth-round.
“I really tried to get up but I couldn’t,” řekl Bundu, who had never been stopped before. “I am okay though. I feel good.”
Spence Jr. won every round on all three judges’ cards and landed a staggering 64 procent svých energetických razníků, per Compubox.
“I think this performance showed once again that I am one of the top fighters at 147-pounds,” řekl Spence Jr.
In tape delayed action that airs on NBCSN at 9 p.m. A/6 p.m. PT, exciting featherweight contender Claudio “Matrix” Marrero (21-1, 15 KO) scored a dominant fourth-round technical knockout of fellow Dominican Republic-native Luis Hinojosa (28-10, 17 KO).
“This is how champions perform,” said Marrero. “They do it smart and they figure out their opponents quickly. Regardless of his record, you have to figure it out and then go for the finish.”
Marrero was in control from the outset, putting Hinojosa on the mat with a right hand early in the first stanza. Hinojosa tried to keep himself in the fight by throwing primarily power punches. Nicméně, it was Marrero who was much sharper in that department, přistání 60 procent svých energetických razníků jen 24 percent from Hinojosa.
In the fourth-round Marrero’s power and style proved to be too much as he consistently beat Hinojosa to the punch on his way three fourth-round knockdowns of Hinojosa. The final barrage and knockdown forced referee Danny Schiavone to stop the bout at 2:55 z kola.
“I’m glad that Hinojosa was brave enough to take the fight,” said Marrero. “Budu bojovat nikoho. I don’t care how short the notice is.
“I’ve endured my loss to Jesus Cuellar and I feel like I’m back at the top of the contenders in the featherweight division. The champions keep running from me so I’m going to keep working until I’m the mandatory and can get another title shot.”
On the same day that Flint, v Michiganu Claressa Shields won her second consecutive Olympic Gold medal for the U.S., women’s boxing was given another great platform as Brooklyn’s Vřes “Heat” Mrazuvzdorný (18-0, 4 KO) earned a majority decision over previously unbeaten Skořápkový “Shelito Way” Vincent (18-1, 1 KO) v jejich 10-kolatovém zápase.
“This is definitely a win for women’s boxing,” Said Hardy. “We kept up a great pace throughout and the fans were invested the whole time.”
The action was non-stop from the beginning, as Vincent charged in early and often looking to close the distance between her and the taller Hardy. Hardy was the more mobile fighter as she circled the ring looking to find the right distance to attack the Providence-native.
“Every time she crowded me, she would get off more punches,” Said Hardy. “I wanted to keep the fight on the outside and when I did that I had a lot of success.”
The longtime rivals were able to live up the hype that their matchup drew. The action was non-stop and it appeared that neither woman would be able to build a big lead on the scorecards.
Hardy’s movement allowed her to create more angles for her attack as she varied her offense with overhand rights, jabs and hooks. Vincent was consistent countering, especially with her left hand that yielded much success.
The punch stats reflected the exciting nature of the fight as Hardy threw 752 punches while Shelly threw 678 across 10 two-minute rounds. It was Hardy who had the advantage in punches landed as she connected on 251 údery oproti 194 for Vincent.
“I thought I won the fight pretty convincingly,” Said Hardy. “She only really caught me a few times the whole fight. I knew I had to be tactical to win the fight. Judging by the belt around my waist, I would rate my performance a 10.”
Power punches were a key to the fight, with the two combatants combining for 955 power punches thrown. Hardy’s biggest advantage came in this department as she landed over 50 percent of her power shots to 34 percent from Vincent.
Nakonec, the judges ruled the bout a majority decision for Hardy by scores of 99-91, 97-93 a 95-95. Vincent believed she had done enough to win the fight and expressed her displeasure with the judges scores afterwards
“I definitely thought I won the fight,” said Vincent. “I was coming forward and I landed the bigger shots. Everyone saw the fight.
“I got head-butted all night long. I came here and everybody told me I’d get robbed. I’ll take the rematch but I’m not playing by these rules. I want her to come up to Providence.”

Here is what the fighters had to say Friday:
HEATHER HARDY
“This is a huge step up to be on television. It’s not the top of the ladder. There’s still room to go but I’m really excited, happy and proud to be on this stage. It proves that all you have to do is be super determined, open your mouth and good things can happen.
“A lot of people have been waiting for this one. She’s done a lot of talking and I’m pretty quiet back to her. My fans know I’m going to do my talking in the ring, so there is definitely a lot of excitement leading up to this.
“I’m going to be fighting closer to home than ever. It’s an honor to be able to represent Brooklyn on the first show at the Amphitheater in Coney Island.
“When I spar, I don’t look to focus in too much on my opponent. I just want to get better. We’ve had really diverse sparring. If I improve my techniques, there is no one who can beat me and that’s the truth.
“You can prepare as much as you want, but I don’t like to over plan. We’ll go in there and figure her out in the first round. We’ve done the work that we need to.
“A lot of people have criticized some of the opponents me and Shelly have had, but we’ve honestly always had an eye on preserving our records and making sure this fight happens on television. This fight is not about my wins, but it’s about giving women boxers the opportunity to be showcased. Výhra, ztratíte nebo kreslit, we’ve both opened the door for other women and that’s what’s most important.
“Tento boj znamená, že vše, co pro mě. This is for everything I’ve ever stood for. I came up from nothing. I’ve spoken up about my past so that people who have walked a similar road will know what is possible with hard work and dedication. I’m here because I wanted something so bad and I wouldn’t let anybody tell me I couldn’t have it.
“I’ve fought so hard for everything and it inspires me to keep going. This is only one step. There’s so many more doors I want to open before I end my career.
“I would like to treat everyone to a boxing clinic tuto neděli. Shelly is going to get a free boxing lesson from me tuto neděli. Not many people can say they get that.”
SHELLY VINCENT
“This fight is going to be non-stop action. Don’t blink.”
“She’s a busy fighter. I’m smaller than her, but power-punching comes from your legs. It won’t matter. I’ve fought tall girls and I’ve fought small girls and it’s the same thing, Vyhrál jsem. The only way I leave without a victory is if I get robbed.
“tvrdě jsem pracoval. Even harder than usual. I’ve run, biked, swam miles and miles preparing for this. We didn’t leave any stone unturned getting ready for this.
“I’m not going to look for the knockout. If it comes, přichází. I’m looking for the victory. I want to attack her body. It’s there for me.
“It feels great to finally be almost time to fight. This fight couldn’t have come at a better time. Je to skvělá příležitost,. We both worked hard for this. I don’t take away from what Heather does for the sport, but I’m excited to get the victory.
“I love New York. It’s always great being here and I hope I can fight here more after I win.
“I was trying to find a way to channel my anger when I was younger and it ended up being a release for me. Eventually this sport turned my whole life around so that I could help others who are like I was.
“This is great for our sport and I want it to give hope to the little girls that are coming up in the sport. I’m winning, but our sport will be the real winner. It’s an honor to fight for all the girls who came before me and didn’t get this opportunity.
JOSEPH WILLIAMS
“Training camp was very good. I feel strong and I’m ready to get in the ring v neděli. I’m sharp and really ready to fight.
“I’m a versatile fighter so I’m ready for anything. Early in the first round I’ll figure him out and start breaking him down.
“The venue looks like an amazing place to fight. If you’re coming to watch me, get there early. Nechcete to nechat ujít.
“I want to keep working towards a title. I want to get my way down to super middleweight and I’m going to keep working every day to get a world title shot.
“Me and Errol Spence Jr. have some history. I was the 2012 Olympic team alternate, so I’ve been following his career and I’m rooting for him. It will be a good night for boxing because I definitely expect him to put on a show.
“My coaches have watched my opponent. I’m ready to adapt to anything. I trust my team and they tell me how to attack. I’m strong and ready to fight.”
Julian Sosa
“I’m very humbled to be on a big card again, with an opportunity to showcase my skills. I have to show how thankful I am by working hard and looking very good that night.
“Being the first boxing show at this venue means I’m a part of history. I have to make sure that my performance is memorable.
“This was the best training camp I’ve ever had and I can’t wait to display the hard work that I’ve put in the gym.
“The fan support I have means a lot. It’s really nice to have all my friends and family together and able to see me do what I love to do. There’s no better feeling than that.
“My opponent is a very aggressive fighter. The first couple of rounds we’re going to try to work the body. As we go to the later rounds, I’m going to take the knockout if it presents itself. But I’m happy to put on a beautiful boxing clinic.”
CHORDALE BOOKER
“Sparring has been really good for this fight. I’ve been going hard. I don’t take it easy on anyone during sparring because I need to be ready to fight.
“It’s really big to be a part of this kind of fight. Especially being a welterweight and with the main event being a title eliminator. I’ve looked up to Errol for a while. He’s a guy I’ve tried to pick up different things from Errol since we’re both southpaws.
“I want everyone to get there early. I’ve got power and I’m looking for a knockout.
“It means everything to fight in front of the fans in Brooklyn. I’m just really excited. My family and friends are from Brooklyn, Flatbush specifically and I’m expecting a lot of support.
“I’m excited to be boxing as a pro for the first time in my hometown. It’s even better that it’s at a new venue. It’s going to be big for me and something that I remember forever.”

Spence Jr. a Bundu hovořili s médii na Via Della Pace v centru Manhattanu předtím, než navštívili Coney Island kvůli focení před jejich Neděle zápas v Brooklynu. Zde je to, co se účastníci museli říkat Čtvrtek:
ERROL SPENCE JR.
“Byl to dlouhý tábor. Jsem ve skvělé formě a po celou dobu jsem měl silné sparingpartnery. Bundu je velmi dobrý bojovník. Je zkušený a technicky zdatný, ale umí být trapný.
“Jsem rád, že jsem zpátky v New Yorku. Myslím, že to bude dobrý boj a chci předvést velkolepý výkon.
“Šli jsme nahoru v žebříčku a snažili jsme se najít soupeře. Spousta kluků se mnou nechtěla bojovat, i v eliminátoru titulů. Takže chci poděkovat Bundu za to, že se pustil do boje.
“Nemám obavy z toho, co bude dál. Vím, co bude dál, když se budu starat o své podnikání. Pokud vyhraju, mám zaručenou šanci na titul mistra světa. Chci boj o titul raději dříve než později.
“Snažíme se v táboře odbourat soupeřovu slabinu. Ale také se díváme na to, co dělají správně. Musíme zúročit všechno. Můj trenér se podívá na video a bude mluvit o tom, co vidí. Je to hodně komunikace v tělocvičně.
“Miluji sparingy s mladšími kluky. Nejlépe amatéři nebo kluci, kteří se právě stali profesionály. Na sparingu mají co dokázat. Opravdu mě posouvají a pomáhají mi být lepším.
“Mým hlavním cílem je vyhrát. Jediné, co musím udělat, je výhra. Pokud přijde knockout, Vezmu to. Ale nutit to nebudu. Je to tvrdý a vytrvalý bojovník. Musí se to nastavit a musí se to vypočítat.”
BUNDA LEONARD
“Spence Jr. je dobrý boxer. Je to asi můj dosud nejtěžší zápas. Tyto druhy bojů mě více motivují.
“Nemám co ztratit. Dám do toho všechno, co mám, a jsem si velmi jistý. Věřím, že mohu zvítězit.
“Spence Jr. a Thurman mají určité podobnosti, ale jsou také úplně jiní bojovníci. Studoval jsem Spence a věřím, že proti Spence Jr. budu mít ještě větší šanci..
“Stále zkouším nové tréninky a snažím se zlepšovat svůj trénink. Jsem v úžasné formě a vím, že mi to pomůže nést se v ringu.
“Myslel jsem, že můj výkon byl proti Thurmanovi v pořádku. Určitě bylo co zlepšovat a myslím, že jsem teď ještě lepší bojovník než tehdy. Mám pocit, že jsem byl 10 Před lety. jsem jako víno, S věkem se opravdu zlepšuji.
“Vidím jeho slabiny a musím jich využít. Věřím, že ho můžu dostat do problémů s mým kontrováním, ale všechno se musí v ringu sejít.
“Miluji výzvu. Chci mu dát jeho první prohru. To je to, co musím udělat. To je vše, co mám v hlavě.”
LOU DIBELLA, Prezident DiBella Entertainment
“Každý by měl vyrazit na Coney Island v neděli odpoledne, abychom viděli, jaký bude neuvěřitelný den a podvečer boxu. Boje začínají v 2:30 p.m. odpoledne a je plně krytá, takže problém s počasím nebude. Je to krásné nové zařízení s neuvěřitelným výhledem.
“Toto je první boxerské vysílání, které bude celostátně vysíláno z Coney Island. V mé mysli máme jednoho z nejlepších mladých bojovníků na světě, který hájí své postavení proti klukovi, který má za sebou dlouhou a úspěšnou kariéru.. Oba Spence Jr. a Bundu byli olympionici a pro Errola to bude skutečný test.
“Není pochyb o tom, že Errol je favorit, zatímco Bundu je smolař, ale předtím byl smolař. Ví, že musí vyhrát a že tohle může být jeho poslední šance na velké scéně.
“V průběhu let jsem povýšil mnoho bojovníků a nebyl lepší bojovník z poslední olympijské třídy nebo tento, který by byl lepší než Errol Spence Jr.. Z hlediska schopností, talent a instinkty je na světové úrovni. Bojuje s mnohem větší inteligencí, než je jeho prstenový věk. Je mistrem v ovládání prstenu. Když se dívám na tento kluk, jak se rve, vždycky mě to uchvátí.
“V neděli Spence Jr. bojuje jako opravdový profesionál a má šanci něco dokázat v celostátní televizi. Je to pro něj skvělé fórum, aby mohl sledovat basketbalový zápas o zlatou olympijskou medaili. Druh publika, který bude sledovat zápas o zlatou medaili, je ten typ lidí, které potřebujeme přivést do boxu. Jsem hrdý na to, že mohu propagovat tuto show.”
