This week on the FNU Combat Sports Show we recap last week’s multiple Bellator cards and the UFC Fight Night card from Boise, Idaho. We start off discussing boxing with an analysis of Manny Pacquiao’s one-sided beating of Lucas Matthysse. We move on to other news this week, including an online spat between Brendan Schaub and Dana White and Dominick Cruz claiming Brock Lesnar will never get through USADA testing to return to the UFC octagon. We also cover upcoming boxing and MMA bouts and discuss the eye poking incidents that occurred during the brief Stipe Micocic vs. Daniel Cormier heavyweight championship bout.

FNU Combat Sports Show: UFC Fight Night Recap, Pacquiao vs. Matthysse still on, “Big Rig” Retires

Efterlad en kommentar

This week on the FNU Combat Sports Show, we discuss the latest news in MMA and boxing, recap the past week’s events and preview the upcoming events this week. We also discuss Walter “2 Guns” Wright winning his main event fight against Mark DeLuca a couple days after we interviewed him last week. Wright’s split decision win came in part due to a persistent jab that frustrated DeLuca and left him bloodied, bruised and exhausted by the final bell. Of course bringing up this fact gets us all going on the absolute necessity of the jab in any combat sports fighter’s toolbox.

Among the news we touch on:

The rumors about Manny Pacquiao’s next fight with Lucas Matthysse being in jeopardy, Manny and his team say everything is on track.

Johny “Big Rig” Hendricks retires (also forgot to mention Rashad Evans retired as well).

 

The latest cast for The Contender Series, set to return this August featuring 16 up and coming young boxers in the 160-pound division.

 

Lyoto Machida’s defection from the UFC to Bellator and Bellator’s blockbuster deal with DAZN, a streaming service working to take over new markets this year, including the US and Italy.

CLASH OF TITANS! Lucian Bute vs. Eleider Alvarez Feb. 24 at Videotron Centre of Quebec City

Efterlad en kommentar
PRESSEMEDDELELSE

Lucian Bute

Montreal (December 12, 2016) – Group Yvon Michel (GYM) and Gestev are very happy to confirm the Clash of Titans mega-event as former International Boxing Federation (IBF) super middleweight world champion Lucian Bute (32-3-1, 25 KOS) will face World Boxing Council (WBC) Silver light heavyweight champion Eleider “Storm” Alvarez (20-0, 10 KOS), Fredag, Februar 24, in a 12-round light heavyweight bout at Vidéotron Centre of Québec City.
This event is a presentation of Vidéotron, i forbindelse med Mise-O-Jeu.

Eleider Alvarez
Alvarez will put his WBC mandatory challenger position to champion Adonis“Superman” Stevenson (28-1, 23 KOS) in danger with an end of April date for this world title fight having already been reserved.
Bute has also set his goal to challenge Stevenson. The veteran southpaw plans to clearly demonstrate that he deserves another wotld title shot, taking on the No. 1 conternder in undefeated Alvarez. Whatever the final outcome, the winner will be the most popular and legitimate challenger for Stevenson, dramatically increasing interest and notoriety of a totally Québécois world championship showdown.
All the ingredients are gathered to heighten popular interest in this fight, which will prove to be one of the most significant in the history of Quebec.
It is a local confrontation between two athletes who chose Quebec as their adopted home, fully integrating in the loal culture and learning French, as well as where they’ve fought the vast majority of their bouts. The result of this major clash will also have enormous repercussions at the international level in the light heavyweight division.
In one corner is former world champion Bute, who has delivered many inspirational performances during his 13 world championship fights (10-2-1, 8 KOS) to become a great star and admired celebrity in Quebec.
The other corner finds unbeaten Alvarez, a world-class fighter for the past three years who has delivered his most brilliant performances abroad, albeit mostly in the shadows of other great stars of Quebec. The former Colombian Olympian wants to establish his true value after having prepared for Stevenson by fighting opponents for more than the past year. He will earn his highest purse, which is similar to what he would have received to fight Stevenson first.
“It is the fans of Quebec in their entirety who will first be delighted with this mega fight and I am convinced that there will be no losers,” GYM præsident Yvon Michel sagde. “Although it is difficult to predict the outcome of this confrontation, most likely this fight will be so interesting and close that, eventually the two could get, one after the other, a world championship fight against the powerful southpaw champion of Montreal, Adonis Stevenson.”
“It was important for us to have this fight at the Vidéotron Centre,” tilføjet Vice-President Shows & Creative Content of Québecor, Michel Granger. “The last time (the Stevenson-Williams fight) was a success and it will be the same on Februar 24.”

“The last six months have been tough for me,” Bute explained. “After the Washington situation was settled, I was happy to finally sit down and discuss my next fight. I accepted as soon as I was offered the fight. We’re talking about an undefeated guy ranked number 1 af WBC. It’s quite a challenge. I tip my hat to Alvarez for putting his position in peril.
“I was expecting the winner of the unification title fight between James Dégale og Badou Jack, but I had no guarantees and I could not afford to wait. My goal is to fight again for a world championship, whether it’s at 168 eller 175 pounds, and I did not want to just take a meaningless preparatory fight.
“After evaluating all the options, we came to the conclusion that we had to take this fight,” Alvarez’ hoved træner Marc Ramsey remarked. “Selvfølgelig, there are risks … but it’s worth it. Eleider has long awaited an opportunity to box against someone recognized in Quebec, and people have not yet seen his full potential. He was all smiles when he received the offer.”.
“When Marc called me into his office,” Alvarez commented, “I was wondering what was going on. Generally, when he calls me into his office, it’s not good news. He asked me to sit down and if I wanted to face Bute. I smiled and said, ja. He is the most popular boxer in Quebec, so my motivation will be different. I’m doing this for myself and my family. I want to be world champion and now it’s going through Lucian. I’ve been looking a long time for a big fight like this and for the first time I will be the headliner.”

Each fight will be wrapped with brief context and commentary from SHOWTIME Sports ring announcer and International Boxing Hall of Fame inductee Jimmy Lennon Jr.

 

Below is the schedule of SHOWTIME EXTREME premieres for the month of April:

  • Torsdag, April 7: Jorge Castro vs. John David Jackson I
  • Torsdag, April 14: Lucas Matthysse vs. John Molina Jr.
  • Torsdag, April 21: Diego Corrales vs. Jose Luis Castillo I
  • Torsdag, April 28: Paulie Ayala vs. Johnny Tapia I

 

Castro-Jackson I (December. 10, 1994, Castro KO 9) –Castro, thoroughly battered, bloodied and losing by a wide margin, rallies from the absolute brink of defeat to score three knockdowns in the ninth round to overcome Jackson in one of the most dramatic turnarounds ever.

 

Ayala-Tapia I (Juni 26, 1999, Ayala W 12) – In some of the fiercest two-way action in the history of Las Vegas boxing, southpaw Ayala hands Tapia his first professional loss in 49 fights and captures the WBA bantamweight title by the scores of 115-114 og 116-113 to gange. Game On: As the boxers were being announced, Tapia walked across the ring and shoved Ayala causing a momentary skirmish.

 

Diego Corrales-Jose Luis Castillo I (Maj 7, 2005, Corrales TKO 10) — After nine intense, back-and-forth rounds, Corrales accomplishes the unthinkable, miraculously regrouping from to knockdowns in the 10th to stop Castillo in the same round (2:06) and etch his spot in boxing lore. After managing to beat the count (and lose a point for excessive spitting out of the mouthpiece), Corrales got Castillo on the ropes and connected with a huge right hand. He continued to unload and Castillo got nailed with a bundle of vicious punches. Øjeblikke senere, the ref stopped it.

 

Lucas Matthysse-John Molina Jr. (April 26, 2014, Matthysse KO 11) — Abloody slugfest, in which both fighters were knocked down multiple times,became an instant classic. Matthysse who went down in the second and fifth rounds, came back with a late-fight onslaught to wear down and drop Molina in the eighth, 10th og 11th runder. The tremendous brawl was as brutal as it was exciting and more compelling to witness than anyone could have imagined.

QUEBEC CITY, Canada (November. 29, 2015) - James Degale forsvarede sin IBF Super mellemvægt VM i en thriller løbet hjemby favorit og tidligere mester Lucian Bute på lørdag i de vigtigste tilfælde af SHOWTIME Championship Boxing.

 

Det var den første titel forsvar for Degale, den 2008 OL-guldvinder fra England, der gik på vejen til Boston for at vinde titlen tidligere i år og valgte at forsvare i fjendtligt territorium.

 

Bute, der forsøgte at genvinde IBF bælte han forsvarede ni gange mellem 2007 og 2012, put on an inspired and gutsy performance in an electric atmosphere to open the new Videotron Centre in Quebec City. But the unbelievable pace, samt et arsenal af overhand rettigheder, krop skud og combos fra den yngre Degale (22-1, 14 KOS) viste sig at være forskellen som Degale sejrede 116-112, 117-111 (to gange).

 

"Jeg er ung, og jeg er frisk. Jeg topper lige nu,” DeGale said. “I’m ready for the best in the world. Tak til Bute – han er en stor mester, og tro mig, han vil være tilbage. "

 

"Som jeg har sagt i fortiden, han er en verdensklasse fighter. Jeg har stadig ting at arbejde på i de næste tre eller fire år, og jeg har tænkt mig at være min bedste. "

 

Bute (32-3, 25 KOS) didn’t look anything like the fighter that lost to Carl Froch in 2012. But while the 35-year-old stalked the switch-hitting DeGale with a relentless attack, han kunne ikke gør nok for at overmande den ekstremt aktive Brit, der kastede 524 power slag i forhold til 278 for Bute.

 

“I think it was a great fight. I did my best tonight,” Bute said. “I think it was a close fight. He’s an Olympic champion, he’s a world champion. If the judges give him the decision I respect that. I’ll be back in the gym to work hard and continue to fight. I think it was a very close fight. I’m happy with my performance and I’ll be back in the gym to get back in the ring one more time.

 

“The last three years were difficult for me. After I lost to Carl Froch that was a very difficult period for me. I took a break, and now I’m back. Jeg føler stor, Jeg føler sunde og nu har jeg endnu en chance for at være tilbage på toppen.

 

“Maybe a few rounds I waited too much and didn’t put the punches together and I let James fight me. When I pushed pressure and pushed back I won the round.”

 

I åbningen Bout på SHOWTIME Championship Boxing, Eleider Alvarez optjent ret til at møde WBC Light Heavyweight verdensmester Adonis Stevenson med en tæt flertalsbeslutning løbet Isaac Chilemba, scoret 114-114, 118-110, 115-113.

 

Alvarez, rangeret Nej. 2 af WBC på 175 pounds, startede hurtigt og hul runder mod Nej. 1 ranked contender Chilemba. But Chilemba weathered the storm and fought his way back in the fight as Alvarez couldn’t keep up the pace he established in the earlier rounds.

 

Begge kæmpere kom ud med en følelse af uopsættelighed i 12th og beslutte strofe, og hvis Chilemba havde vundet den sidste runde kampen ville have været regeret uafgjort.

 

"Jeg vidste, at jeg var nødt til at afslutte de senere runder stærke, men jeg tror, ​​jeg gjorde nok til at vinde kampen,” Alvarez said. “I’m ready to accept the challenge and face Stevenson. At være verdensmester, du nødt til at slå mesteren. Så det er hvad jeg har til formål at gøre. "

 

Mark hævdede, at ALVAREZ, der kæmper ud af nærliggende Montreal, var modtageren af ​​en "hjemby beslutning,"Selv om den dommer, der regerede kampen uafgjort var en lokal, og de to andre var fra neutrale territorier.

 

"Jeg troede, jeg gjorde nok til at vinde det,” Chilemba said. “But it is what it is. Jeg tror, ​​du kan kalde det en hjemby beslutning. "

 

Efter kampen, SHOWTIME Sports vært Brian Custer satte sig ned med Stevenson for at få sine tanker om Alvarez-Chilemba og hans fremtid.

 

"Det var en tæt fysisk kamp,” Stevenson said. "Han (Alvarez) vandt denne kamp, ​​men det var meget tæt. "

 

"Vi taler om Kovalev fordi WBC stadig rangerer ham Nej. 1 contender. Jeg vil have denne kamp til at ske. The fans want it to happen. I said June is perfect for me. He said ‘OK, Juni,"Kathy Duva sagde" Intet problem, June.’ Then she said on HBO. Jeg sagde, "Glem alt om tv'er, let them talk.’ We want the fight to happen. Let the TVs work together and make it happen.

 

“I want to fight Kovalev. That’s the best opportunity for me because I want his titles. For sure, this fight will happen in June. I don’t have a problem; my team doesn’t have a problem. I want this fight in June.

 

Kovalev is scared. I talked to him, saw it in his eyes that he’s scared of me. It will happen, but I know Kovalev is scared. I want Kovalev. I’m very hungry to get his titles.”

 

Adrian Granados overlevet en første runde knockdown at chokere ubesejret super let udsigten Amir Imam i åbningen anfald af SHOWTIME BOKSNING ON SHO EXTREME med en ottende runde TKO (2:34).

 

Det var et knusende nederlag for Imam, der kom ind i kampen, da Ingen. 1 obligatoriske udfordrer til WBC Super Letvægts verdensmester Viktor Postol.

 

Imam looked like he was going to finish the fight early after a nice left-right combo floored the Chicago native. But after escaping the first, Granados dikterede tempoet i kampen, worked the inside and prevented Imam – considered one of boxing’s most talented young contenders – from establishing his jab. With Imam unable to keep the fight at a distance, Granados picked apart the Don King-promoted fighter. After seven rounds of punishment and Iman gasping for air against the ropes Granados finished his opponent with a series of devastating combo shots.

 

En opstemt Granados (15-3-2, 10 KOS), der har tab til krigere med en samlet oversigt over 49-0, tryglede sin sag at blive den obligatoriske udfordrer.

 

"Jeg tror, ​​jeg skulle være den obligatoriske udfordrer,” Granados said. “He was in line and I stopped him. Hvad betyder det? Come on. I was the underdog, men jeg kom bare til at tage det. Jeg kom til at tage det.

 

"Det føles fantastisk. Når jeg havde ham wobbled jeg var ligesom, "You got at få ham nu. This time you’re not taking it from me.’ It was a flash knockdown. Han fangede med højre hånd, men jeg var okay. Jeg bare dukkede lige op, og jeg vidste, at han ville forsøge at afslutte mig. Vi fik ud af det og gik tilbage til arbejdet. "

 

På trods af den demoraliserende tab, Jeg har (18-1, 15 KOS) ikke fortryde at tage en kamp, ​​som sandsynligvis vil banke ham ud af titlen påstand.

 

"Jeg kender folk måske sige, at jeg ikke burde have taget denne kamp, men jeg havde brug for denne kamp i mellem som en tune-up for min næste kamp, ​​fordi jeg ikke ønskede at vente på de seks til otte måneder for verden titel skudt.

 

"Nøglen til kampen var min jab, Jeg vidste bare ikke bruge det nok,” Imam said. “But that’s the way it goes and I’m going to definitely come back stronger. I wasn’t thinking anything after that first-round knockdown. I’ve done that many times and didn’t think the fight was over. I wasn’t surprised at all by the way he came out. Jeg ved, hvordan han kæmper. Han er en god fighter og det er alt der er til det. "

 

I åbningen anfald af SHOWTIME BOKSNING ON SHO EXTREME, ubesejret sværvægter udsigten Oscar Rivas (18-0, 13 KOS) slået ud veteran Joey Abell (31-9, 29 KOS) på :46 af den anden runde.

Her er, hvad SHO EXTREME deltagerne havde at sige på torsdag:

 

AMIR LOVE

"Jeg ved, jeg tager en risiko ved at tage denne kamp, ​​men jeg har tænkt mig at drage fordel af denne. Jeg virkelig ikke brug for hvile, fordi jeg er i gymnastiksalen alligevel. Så lad os bare få denne kamp ud af vejen, og jeg vil bare vente på verden titel kamp.

 

"Jeg føler mig ikke presset. Jeg ved, hvad jeg sprang ind i, da jeg kom ind i denne professionel boksning spil, og jeg har et godt team omkring mig. Vi er en stram cirkel og meget stærk, og når mulighederne kommer, Jeg vil være klar til at drage fordel af det.

 

"Folk taler om mig ønsker at kæmpe Errol Spence og få hævn (på en tidligere US. Olympisk boksning forsøg tab). Jeg har ikke hævn over mit sind. Jeg mener, kunne vi helt sikkert gøre det, når jeg flytter en vægtklasse, men lige nu er jeg fokuseret på en 140-pund titel skudt. Jeg vil have denne titel skudt i begyndelsen 2016 mod (nuværende WBC verdensmester) Viktor Postol.

 

"(Postol) er en god fighter, og han fik titlen for en grund, men du kan ikke gemme og køre alt for længe, ​​og min tid kommer næste år. Du får et forsvar, og så er det hele mig. Det er alt Young Master. "

 

ADRIAN GRANADOS

"Jeg ville sige dette er den største kamp i min karriere. Det kommer til at være en stor kamp, ​​og jeg ser frem til en stor aften.

 

"(Imamens) fik en masse værktøjer og han er meget talentfuld. Vi vil tage det rundt ved rundt og foretage justeringer som kampen går.

 

"Jeg har steget godt. Jeg er ikke tilfreds med den måde min karriere er gået og havde en masse dårlige beslutninger og ledelsesmæssige problemer. Jeg var ikke bragt sammen ligesom min modstander var. Men det har hjulpet mig med at vokse nogle tykke hud og attributter til hvorfor jeg er her i dag.

 

"Jeg har konfronteret hårde krigere før, og det er ikke første gang, jeg har været underdog. Jeg vil trække ud denne ked.

 

"Jeg glæder mig til at chokere boksning verden på lørdag nat. "

 

OSCAR RIVAS

"Min styrke er min hastighed, og den måde jeg lægge pres på min modstander. Så jeg har tænkt mig efter (Abell) og vil lægge et stort pres på ham, indtil han falder.

 

"Jeg er så begejstret og opstemt at kæmpe igen på en stor scene. Jeg kæmpede på ShoBox i min sidste kamp, ​​og det var fantastisk. Det er så vigtigt for mig at få set så jeg kan opfylde min drøm og komme ind i top 10 i min division.

 

"Dette er den største kamp i min karriere, og den største mulighed, jeg nogensinde har haft. Jeg vil bare være sikker på jeg få fat i det og ser spektakulære. "

 

Stacy McKINLEY, Imamens manager og træner

"Jeg kan ikke finde noget, vi skal arbejde på. Amir er stærk og teknisk forsvarlig og han bliver mere erfarne, hver gang han kæmper. Han er en ødelæggende puncher. Han er den fulde pakke, og det er meget svært at finde. De kommer ikke rundt for ofte.

 

"Jeg vil gerne have ham til at kæmpe Adrien Broner næste år. Jeg vil gerne bekæmpe alle de fyre og forene alle titler næste år. Boksning kommer til at bruge en ny superstjerne nu, at Floyd Mayweather er væk, og vi kommer ikke til at vente 15 år til at gøre en anden en. Jeg tror Amir forener alle titler på 140 og 147, så ville vi have vores nye superstjerne inden 36 måneder.

 

"Han er nødt til at bruge sin jab til at vinde på lørdag. Han har en smuk jab, den bedste jab i boksning. Og alt skal komme lige bag det. "

“It’s on – fight time is finally here. I feel like a beast.

"De tror, ​​at det kommer til at være en boksekamp, men det vil være en ødelæggelse. It will be explosive. Three rounds – place your bets. Tro mig.

"Jeg kæmpede det bedste super mellemvægt southpaw derude i Andre Dirrell og ser, hvad jeg gjorde for ham. Once he feels my power that will be it. I’m going to start fast and throw loads of punches.

"Jeg så ham mod Carl Froch, iagttog ham imod (Rid) Andrade. He’s great in the center of the ring, but I’m not going to stand there. It won’t be a chess match. I’ll start fast and we’ll see how he takes it.

"Carl udsatte ham, og jeg vil slutte ham. But I don’t care about Carl Froch – he’s old. I’m the new champion. If he wants this belt, Han bliver nødt til at komme få det.

“I’m an old school fighter – I don’t mind travelling to fight in my opponents’ hometown.

"Han var en stor mester, der har kæmpet nogle store krigere, så jeg burde få kudos da jeg slog ham."

LUCIAN BUTE

“It’s a great opportunity to fight for my old belt in front of my hometown fans. I think they’ll push me toward the victory. I’m looking forward to becoming world champion again.

"Jeg tror, ​​han er den bedste super mellemvægt i verden lige nu, men jeg er meget sikker på mig selv.

“I had a great camp. I’m just ready to become world champion again.

"Jeg er sund, I feel great physically. I have the power to knock him out and the skills to box him.

"Nu har jeg chancen for at komme tilbage min bælte mod en anden engelsk fighter."

JIM McDONNELL, Degale træner

"Jeg har prøvet at komme tilbage og gøre, hvad Lucian har gjort, og det er ikke let. Stil ind på lørdag nat, fordi det, jeg har fået er speciel, og du vil nyde det, du ser.

“It’s tough to win your world title back. I respect Lucian for trying, men James er en verdensklasse fighter. Han er klar til alt. "

HOWARD GRANT, Bute træner

“We did everything we had to do. Lucian is 100 percent prepared to surprise everyone on Saturday. Lucian knows what wearing that belt is all about – he wore it for about five years and he’s coming on Saturday to take it back to where it belongs.”

ELEIDER ALVAREZ

"Dette er min chance lige nu. Jeg er sulten, og jeg har gjort alt, hvad jeg havde at gøre for at få det bedst mulige lejr for denne kamp. Jeg står over for en meget intelligent bokser, der er teknisk fremragende. Men jeg har altid sagt, at hvis jeg ikke står over for den bedste, så vil jeg blive en almindelig bokser. Så jeg skal vende den bedste, at være den bedste.

"Når jeg vågner søndag morgen, Jeg har tænkt mig at være den obligatoriske udfordrer til titlen. "

Mark ISAAC

"Jeg havde en stor lejr i Burbank, Calif., uddannelse der i seks eller syv uger. Jeg tror, ​​jeg skulle have et skud på Stevenson, og hvis det er det, det tager at få der jeg vil gøre, hvad er muligt at gøre det ske. Jeg er klar til udfordringen.

"Jeg kæmper en god fighter og han er ubesejret for en grund. Men jeg er her for at bevise, at jeg er det bedste lys sværvægter i verden. Jeg vil lægge på en god Vis på lørdag nat og alle vil se.

"Jeg har en masse prøvelser i mit liv, men jeg tror, ​​det er det, der gør mig stærkere og har gjort mig, hvad jeg er i dag. Jeg kan ikke se tilbage på, hvad der er sket, og jeg sætter pris på, hvad livet har givet mig.

“He is a great fighter and I know it won’t be an easy fight. But I’ve put in the work and I’m ready.”

MARC RAMSAY, Alvarez træner

"Dette er de store ligaer lige nu. Disse to er det bedste lys sværvægtere i verden. Jeg har haft mulighed for at arbejde med Isak, fordi han har diskuteret i Montreal med Artur Beterbiev i to uger. Så jeg kender ham godt. Han er en meget komplet og komplekst bokser. Men jeg fuld tillid til min fighter for at vinde denne kamp. Det er hans chance. "

BUDDY McGIRT, The Mark'S Trainer

"Jeg vil bare sige, det er dejligt at være en del af denne begivenhed. Hr. Degale er mester og han kommer til hr. Bute land at bekæmpe ham. Det er, hvad boksning behov. Det har brug for flere kampe som denne til at holde det i stigning.

"Så vidt vores kamp går med hr. Alvarez, Jeg tror, ​​at udover (Sergey) Kovalev, disse to er det bedste lys sværvægtere i verden. Og jeg tror, ​​at de skal kæmpe om titlen og ikke en eliminator at se, hvem kæmper mester. "

LONDON (November. 16, 2015) - To dage før han afgår til Canada, IBF Super Mellemvægt verdensmester James "Chunky" Degale (21-1, 14 KOS) afholdt en åben medie træning i Stonebridge Boxing Club i London som han nærmer sig afslutningen af ​​en 10-plus uge træningslejr for sin titel forsvar mod tidligere verdensmester og canadiske fan favorit, Lucian Bute (32-2, 25 KOS), Montreal, på Lørdag, November. 28, bor på SHOWTIME (11 p.m. OG/PT) fra Videotron Centre af Quebec City.

 

Arrangementet faktureret som "genvinding" er en præsentation af Videotron i samarbejde med Mise-O-Jeu.

 

Her er hvad Degale havde at sige på mandag:

 

JAMES Degale:

"Jeg tror, ​​jeg er den bedste super mellemvægt derude lige nu. There are hard fights in the division. Badou Jack is a good fighter, men jeg tror, ​​jeg slog ham og slog ham godt, hvis jeg forbliver tændt for den fulde 12 runder.

 

"Arthur Abraham er stadig en hård kunde og forhåbentlig Martin Murray kan gøre forretningen. Jeg tror, ​​han vil slå ham, selv om det er svært at vinde i Tyskland.

 

"Jeg ønsker at bevise jeg er den bedste, Jeg vil gå nogen steder at gøre det, og det er derfor, jeg forsvarer min titel i Canada. Alle verdensmestre i Storbritannien har store rivaler på døren, så det er en rigtig spændende tid på hjemmemarkedet samt til boksning i Storbritannien lige nu - men jeg er overbevist om jeg slog alle i denne division.

 

"Jeg kan lide boksning væk fra hjemmet – maybe it’s time I started being called ‘the road warrior’. I won my world title in Boston and now I am defending it in Canada against a classy opponent in Lucian Bute. I know it’s going to be a hard fight but I am ready for that. My sparring has been great, Jeg rammer store gange på sporet, Jeg føler mig stærk i gymnastiksalen, og jeg bare ser frem til det.

 

"Intet ændrer sig under Jim McDonnell – det handler om hårdt arbejde, lange ture op Hampstead Heath, 15 runde sparring sessioner, fem minutters runder i gymnastiksalen – Jeg er altid i god form. We haven’t changed anything really. Hvis noget, we’ve had to just adjust the mindset and train like a challenger even though I am the champion. That’s the way you have to think.

 

"Jeg føler frisk, skarp og klar. jeg rejser onsdag and I am raring to go. I just can’t wait to get in there now. Jeg ønskede at komme derud en god 10 days early to acclimate to the weather and the time. Once I am there, Jeg føler endnu mere tændt. "
