Don King Productions Announces October 4th Showdown Between WBA No. 1 Contender Michael Hunter & World Champion Kubrat Pulev

MIAMI, FLA. (Srpen 13, 2025)—The world’s greatest boxing promoter the legendaryDon King has announced a new date and location for the WBA Heavyweight World Championship featuring current championKubrat “The Cobra” Pulev to face off against No. 1-ranked WBA contenderMichael „The Bounty“ Hunter.

The exciting night of fights will take place onŘíjen 4at Miami’sJai-Alai Fronton Casino, King has announced, despite the threats of a lawsuit by Epic Sports and Entertainment representatives who King says continue to spread lies that Hunter is unavailable for this fight.

Král, who in the spring won the $1.1 million purse bid by the WBA to stage the fight originally scheduled for August 23rd, said he still has a binding three-year contract with Hunter that was signed in February of 2024 and then was victorious in two consecutive appeals to the WBA by Epic Sports and Entertainment to prevent the fight from happening.

“The threats of lawsuits continues against the WBA by Epic Sports and Entertainment,” King said in a statement. “It’s all corruption, fraud, bribery, rigged schemes and crooked scams by Epic Sports appealing to the WBA for reconsideration of the WBA purse bid, for Pulev vs Hunter, which DKP won. Nyní, Epic Sports is trying to change and to nullify the bout. This clouds the atmosphere with lies and the deception of the truth, fake and false news.”

král pokračoval: “The WBA honorably stood up for their rules and regulations and declared the purse bid valid and legitimate, as held, then Epic Sports and the WBA champion Kubrat Pulev made an appeal to change the meaning of the WBA rules and regulations…The WBA honorably denied the champion Kubrat Pulev and Epic Sports, then Epic Sports rewrote the purse bid contracts just as though they had won the purse bid, and asked the WBA to dishonorably and illegally grant their appeal.”

King said now that the WBA has made its decision to uphold the purse bid decision regarding Kubrat Pulev, tím, že, upon approval by the WBA, he has announced the October 4th date and Miami location for this fantastic heavyweight championship title bout to take place.

“However, John Wirt never stops in trying to prevent the bout, for the No. 1 contender Michael Hunter, not to fight. Now Epic Sports John Wirt and Ivaylo Gotzev are filing a lawsuit for the arbitrations against the WBA’s decisions of justice and fair play against their Epic Sports and Entertainment Company.

“However, DKP will not wait for that decision to come about. DKP will stand up and support the WBA’s honor and credibility in their decision for fair play and justice regarding the WBA purse bid situation. The credibility of the WBA is at stake.”

King said the October 4 card will also feature DKP fightersBlair „Flair“ CobbsAdrien “The Problem” Broner and former WBC Cruiserweight World ChampionNoel Mikaelian.

Minulý víkend, DKP issued a cease-and-desist order to SELA and TKO Group Holdings, Inc., after it was reported that there was a fight in the works that would pit Hunter against Jarrell Miller on September 11th during the mega-fight week featuring Canelo Alvarez vs. Terence Crawford in Las Vegas.

The world’s greatest promoter, Don King, Kdo vyhrál $1.1 million purse bid by the WBA and Hunter’s promoter, has stated that it is all systems “go” for the title fight.

While Epic Sports and Entertainment representatives, who embarrassed the WBA at the purse bid, continue to spread lies that Hunter is unavailable for this fight…this fight will be taking place for the WBA Heavyweight Championship.

“Yesterday Don King and Noel Mikaelian slammed Jake Paul, a dnes, the great Michael Hunter and Don King are in the process of slamming Epic Sports and Entertainment and bringing boxing back to we the people,“Řekl Král. “Thank you, Michal; you are truly a smart bounty hunter.

“Michael Hunter and I are inseparable. He is excited about being in the United Kingdom for the fight this week, and he’ll continue to train and get ready to knock out Pulev. He’s been working hard to prepare for this important fight of his career, and he’s looking forward to what follows as well. “He’s ready to prove to the world that he is the true heavyweight champion. Let’s make it happen.”

The Southern California native Hunter (24-1-2, 17 KO) won the vacant WBA Gold Heavyweight Title in June, taking out Cassius Chaney in a 12-round unanimous decision at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Fla. In his last fight in December, Hunter registered a fifth-round TKO over Christian Larrondo Garcia in Mexico. Hunter’s only career setback came back in 2017 when he lost a unanimous 12-round decision to current Oleksandr Usyk, who in December beat Tyson Fury to become just the third boxer to become an undisputed world champion in the two weight divisions in the “four-belt era.”

Zde je to, co bojovníci řekli o svých bojích Pátek, výcvikový tábor, jejich příslušné oponenty a další:

 

ANDREW TABITI

„Je skvělé, že mezi sebou bojují čtyři neporažené křižníky. Chci, abychom dostali míč zpět do USA. území, protože jde o historicky evropsky ovládanou divizi. Rozhodně si myslím, že nástup mladých křižníků, jako jsem já, to mění.

 

„Nesrovnávám se s ostatními křižníky v divizi, Vím, že jsem nejlepší. Vždy se snažím působivě vyhrát, a doufám, že předvedu skvělý výkon pro fanouškyPátek noc.

 

„Všechno bylo perfektní. Výcvikový tábor byl skvěle. Začal jsem kemp v únoru, takže se cítím silný a pohodlně. Zajímavé je, že nejsem vůbec nervózní, přestože je to můj první debut v hlavní roli. Vnímám to jako jakýkoli jiný boj, kde vím, do čeho jdu. Myslím, že mi to dává vědět, že dospívám jako bojovník a cítím se mnohem jistější ve svých dovednostech a schopnostech.

 

„Čekal jsem na správné datum a tohle je ono. Věřím, že můj kariérní posun je skvělý, o čem jsem snil. Nyní je čas udělat další krok.

 

"Osobně jsem nikdy neviděl Tapii bojovat, ale koukal jsem na videa. Je neporažený, solidní soupeř. Styly vedou souboje a tohle je pro mě dobré. Těším se, že budu pokračovat v posilování a předvádět všem dobrý výkon a přiblížit se k boji o titul.

 

"Nemůžu se dočkat. Jdu sebevědomě. Klíčem je získat vítězství, je to hlavní. Vítězství je všechno.

 

"Cítím se požehnán, že mohu trénovat mimo Floyd's gym a mohu bojovat pod Mayweather Promotions.". Je to někdo, ke komu vzhlížím, takže být tam, kde jsem, je sen, který se stává skutečností. Miluji trénink v Mayweather Boxing Club. Udržuje mě to soustředěné a hladové.”

 

KEITH TAPIA

 

"Boj s Tabiti je skvělý.", skutečnou výzvou. Líbí se mi, jak bojuje. Vážím si ho, ale budu pro něj špatné počasí. Okamžitě převezmu kontrolu; bude to boj s Tapií, ne boj s Tabiti. to je fakt.

 

„Tabiti je talentovaný boxer. Jeho styl je styl Mayweather. Jako fanoušek miluji Floyda Mayweathera, ale Tabiti není Floyd Mayweather. Mě? Přišel jsem do boje, Ruce vzhůru, posouvám se vpřed, když jdu. Chci tě přejet.

 

"Určitě změním vnímání sebe v tomto boji a divizi, protože jsem stroj.". Opravdu věřím a nemůžu se dočkat boje.

 

"Pro mě, tohle je ten správný čas. Jsem tady a rozhodně jsem připraven bojovat. Mám pocit, že jsem nejlepší ve své váhové kategorii, až na to, že mě ještě nikdo neviděl. Tabiti může mít slávu, ale nebudu jen mluvit, půjdu pěšky.

 

"Myslím, že je to pro mě velký krok, když jsem ho porazil.". Jakmile zvonek zazvoní, tehdy víme, co se skutečně stane.

 

„Stanu se šampionem cruiserweight, obhajujte to několikrát a pak jděte nahoru. Už se cítím jako šampion jak mentálně, tak duchovně.

 

“Všechny mé zápasy jsou stejně důležité. Jsem opravdu spokojený s tím, jak se moje kariéra ubírá. Nebýt boxu, teď bych tu nebyl. Bůh a box mě zachránili. Kdyby to nebylo pro ně, nebyl bych naživu.”

 

 

MICHAEL HUNTER

„V porovnání s minulostí je to krok vpřed v oblasti konkurence, s tím, že je neporažený křižník. je dobrý, daleký jihpaw. Jsme vlastně zhruba stejně staří; byli jsme zároveň v amatérech, ale nikdy spolu nebojovali.Pátek, Chci působivě vyhrát. Nechci říkat, že jdu na knockout, pokud se to stane, stane se to, ale snad se nám to podaří.

 

"I když jsem se v televizi už několikrát popral, s Mayweather Promotions to bude dobrá show. Jsem vděčný, že mohu bojovat na kartě mého dobrého přítele Andrewa Tabitiho. To je čest, abych byl upřímný. Bude skvělé, že moje rodina a přátelé mimo Las Vegas si mě budou moci naladit a sledovat, tak to je požehnání.

 

„Neřekl bych, že jsem spokojený s tím, jak se moje kariéra ubírá. Nemůžu si stěžovat, protože nemám žádné ztráty, Jen bych si přál, aby to šlo trochu rychlejším tempem. Jsem dvojnásobný olympionik a v amatérech jsme zvyklí bojovat 4-5 časy mimo týden, takže přizpůsobit se boji jednou za pár měsíců mi připadá trochu stagnující. Opravdu se snažím nemyslet příliš daleko do budoucnosti, Snažím se žít okamžikem, ale doufám, že se relativně brzy dočkám titulu.

„Do tréninkového kempu jsem šel hned po svém posledním zápase, takže je to asi osm týdnů. V tréninku jsou vždy vzestupy a pády, ale pokud si zachováte pozitivního ducha, všechno nakonec dobře dopadne. Takže to dopadlo dobře, nemůžu si stěžovat. Obvykle trénuji mimo Mayweather Boxing Club, ale probíhají nějaké stavby, takže jsme to přesunuli do Fight Capitol a na několik dalších míst.

„Změnil jsem svůj trénink, abych se zlepšil, ne nutně pro mého soupeře nebo pro tento boj.

 

„V Mayweather Gymu se musíte trochu více soustředit. Je spousta věcí, které se v normální posilovně opravdu nedějí jednoduše proto, že je Floyd, takže to z vás vytáhne nebo ne.. Přežijí jen ti nejsilnější.”

 

Isiah THOMAS

 

"Pátek je dobrá věc pro nadcházející, Americké křižníky. V divizi je nás spousta, kteří se chtějí prosadit. Nejen já. Toto je naše šance ukázat, že Amerika má dobré bojovníky v křižníkové váze. Je to perfektní výkladní skříň.

 

"Jsem velmi rád, že jsem toho součástí Páteční karta. Beru to všechno a snažím se předvést své schopnosti a předvést svůj talent.

 

"Hunter je mladý a hladový jako já.", ale ve skutečnosti jsem ho neviděl ani neviděl. Slyšel jsem o něm a jsem si jistý, že přinese svou hru „A“..

 

"Já vím, co můžu udělat, není potřeba mnoho stratégií. Jen se neukazuji.

 

"Cítím, že moje kariéra se zatím vyvíjí dobře.". Stále stoupám. jsem v televizi. Líbí se mi tempo, kterým jdu, ale existuje jediná cesta, jak skutečně jít, a to je na vrchol. Nepovažuji se za nejlepší cruiserovou váhu, jen jeden z nejlepších. Nakonec, a včas, ačkoli.

 

"Pátek, Prostě budu dělat to, co umím nejlépe. Samozřejmě, chcete působivě vyhrát, ale nejdůležitější je vyhrát. Musím dostat to W.

 

„Žiji v Detroitu, ale trénuji v Miami, který je pro mě jako druhý domov. Tréninkový kemp trvá asi dva měsíce a bylo to skvělé. Mám skvělé sparingy v Miami."

 

Ronald Gavril

 

"Těším se na tuto velkou příležitost. Mnoho lidí neví, s kým jsem, takže bojuji na SHOWTIME, aby mi to začalo dávat odhalení a uznání, které potřebuji.

 

„Tréninkový kemp probíhal skvěle, Cítím se silný a připravený. Jsem spokojený a nemám žádné stížnosti. Cítím se požehnán, že mohu být součástí této skvělé karty plné bojovníků s obrovským talentem. Je vzrušující, že to mohu sdílet se svými stájovými kolegy zde v našem městě.

 

"Těším se na to, co to přinese nejen mé budoucnosti, ale i nás všech."

 

JUAN NOVOA

 

„Tréninkový kemp probíhal skvěle, Trénuji už sedm týdnů. Momentálně trénuji v Miami, Fla.

 

„Viděl jsem videa z jeho zápasů a mohu říci, že je to silný bojovník, který se nebojí to zamíchat. Vzhledem k tomu, že mám více profesionálních soubojů a více 180 amatérské zápasy, těžko říct, jestli je pro mě Gavril o krok výš, dokud nevstoupím do ringu tento pátek.

 

„Byl bych spokojenější se svou kariérou, kdybych už vyhrál světový titul, ale bohužel okolnosti z mé poslední výzvy na mistrovství světa nedopadly v můj prospěch. Vím, že vítězstvím v tomto boji bych se okamžitě pustil do boje o titul mistra světa a potenciálně další příležitosti k titulu mistra světa. Vidím, že jsem buď náročný, nebo obhajoba světového titulu za rok."

 

SANJARBEK RAKHMANOV

 

„Sledoval jsem Olvera dost na to, abych měl pocit, že ho znám. je vyšší, Mexičan. Těším se na boj s ním.

 

„Trénuji v Mayweather Boxing Club s Dewey Cooperem; je mým trenérem od chvíle, kdy jsem se stal profesionálem. Měl jsem asi 150 amatérské zápasy a získal jsem spoustu mezinárodních zkušeností.

 

„Považuji se za průbojníka. Jakmile zvonek zazvoní, Přišel jsem do boje.

 

„Jsem spokojený s tím, jak se věci vyvíjejí. Každý den tvrdě trénuji. Přijdu si vzít všechny tituly. Tohle je moje váha, kolem 143 liber. Nemám v plánu jít moc nahoru ani dolů

 

„V tomto boji chci vyhrát a vypadat dobře a pak se hned vrátit. Myslím, že asi po roce budu připraven postavit se všem nejlepším klukům.‘‘

ALFONSO OLVERA

 

„Tréninkový kemp byl skvělý; trénujeme asi měsíc. Práce na silnici je dobrá, sparring je dobrý s různými boxery. Váha není problém. Trénuji ve Scrapyard Boxing Gym v Tucsonu, Ariz.

 

„Náš soupeř je impozantní a je třeba ho brát vážně. Víme, že je agresivní a očekává, že vyhraje, takže musíme přivést naši hru „A“ do ringu. Očekáváme také vítězství.

 

"V této fázi své kariéry jsem velmi spokojený se svým pokrokem. Tato karta je rozhodně pro svět, a je to pro nás také velký krok vpřed.

 

„Vítáme příležitost a děkujeme za ni. Doufáme, že tento boj nás pozdvihne k dalším příležitostem a přiblíží nás k tomu, že se jednoho dne budeme snažit o titul mistra světa.”

ANAHEIM, Kalif. (Únor. 27, 2016) – Lev “Zemětřesení” Santa Cruz defended his WBA Featherweight World Championship in convincing fashion v sobotu noc, knocking down Kiko “Sensación” Martinez twice in the first round, then ending it on a barrage of punches as the fight was called at 2:09 in the fifth round in the main event of a SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING doubleheader at Honda Center in Anaheim, Kalif.
Ve spolupráci funkce na SHOWTIME, 29-letý Hugo Ruiz (36-3, 31 KO), Los Mochis, Sinaloa, Mexiko, regained his WBC Super Bantamweight World Title with a devastating early knockdown with just 51 seconds into the 12-round fight against 23-year-old Července Ceja (30-2, 27 KO) of Atizapan De Zaragoza, Mexiko, in a highly anticipated rematch of their August fight won by Ceja.
Fighting just 10 miles west of his hometown of La Habra and before 7,780 enthusiastic fans, the 27-year-old Santa Cruz (32-0-1, 18 KO) continued to establish himself as the King of Southern California as he punished the game 29-year-old Martinez (35-7, 26 KO) z Alicante, Valencie, Španělsko, s 570 total punches in just five rounds. Tam byly 1,038 total punches thrown during the fight.
The fans love it when two fighters go toe-to-toe,” Santa Cruz told SHOWTIME’s Jim Gray po boji. “I wanted to give the fans a great fight. I knew I could hurt him with a right hand. He’s a fighter and when he’s knocked down, he’s going to come back. In the fifth round I knew I had to finish him off and I did.
Santa Cruz continued, “We were going toe-to-toe from the beginning. He’s was throwing good punches I was throwing out good punches and the crowd was loving it. Then my dad told me to slow down and be smarter so we started boxing.
Santa Cruz wasted no time getting the upper hand as the opening bell rung. He knocked Martinez out twice in the first round; the first just 23 seconds into the fight and the second on a devastating right hand at two minutes into the round prompting SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING play-by-play announcer Mauro Ranallo to tell expert analyst Al Bernstein: “We may be able to get to Disneyland before the end of the night.
Martinez fell into a groove in the third and fourth rounds, but got into trouble two minutes into the fifth round as Santa Cruz had him up against the ropes connecting on numerous body shots, uppercuts and combinations before referee Raul Caiz Sr. signaled the end of the fight for Santa Cruz’s second straight world title defense in Southern California.
Martinez said that Santa Cruz, “started to move a lot and he broke my strategy and he fought a great fight. The second round I was getting looser and I was starting to feel much better.
He was like a bull coming forward really strong,” Santa Cruz added. “He has definitely been one of the strongest fighters I’ve been in the ring with yet.
Towards the end I said, ‘this is it, this is my opportunity to take him down. If I don’t finish him right here, it’s going to make it a really tough fight.So I said I was going at it with my all and thankfully it turned out the way that it did.
Santa Cruz, making his second defense after capturing the world title from Abner Mares back in August, said someday he wants to break the records for most punches thrown in a fight. “I wanted to throw as many punches as I can so the fans could get a good show.
Santa Cruz is now eyeing a future potential matchup with IBF 122-pound world champion Carl Frampton na 126 pounds or Gary Russell. “I’m up for anyone,” řekl. “I want the rematch with (Abner) Matky. Since Frampton won, if he’s ready to go up in weight, I’m ready for him. I challenge him to a fight whenever he’s ready.
In a rematch of the WBC Super Bantamweight World Title he lost last August, the new 122-pound champion Ruiz improved his record to 5-0 in rematches (s pěti vykrojení) as he delivered a stunning first-round knockout against Ceja, who injured his right ankle on a powerful clean right just seconds into the fight sending him to the canvas.
Ceja got up slowly but was battered with a fury of punches and knocked out again with just 51 seconds into the fight ending the affair.
I was very prepared to knock him out, but I was prepared to go 12 kola dnes večer also if I had to,” řekl Ruiz, who was teary and emotional following the victory. “I was happy to knock him out in the first round. I’m looking for the best fighters and the best money out there.
Said SHOWTIME analyst Paulie Malignaggi: “I’ve never seen a first-round KO that soon in a fight of this much importance.Added SHOWTIME’s Bernstein: “The right hand was the weapon of choice for Ruiz, and he got the job done. What a moment of redemption for Ruiz!”
Obočí, who beat Ruiz on a fifth-round knockout last August to win the world title, was hurt from the first series of Ruiz punches and never recovered in the intense first round.
Ceja was taken to nearby UC Irvine Hospital and diagnosed with a fractured right ankle.
I saw that he got hurt with the first punch and I saw his leg wobbling and so I said, ‘Let’s finish’,” Ruiz řekl. “And I did in that round.
Dříve Sobota z Manchesteru, Anglie, na SHOWTIME BOXING INTERNATIONAL, IBF 122-pound world champion Carl Frampton unified the super bantamweight division with a split decision victory over WBA titlist Scott Quigg.
Dlouho očekávaný zápas neporažených šampionů se dostal na pomalý a taktický start, Ale Belfast Native Frampton (22-0, 14 KO) se etabloval jako agresor a pracoval na jeho úderném do kapsy raných kol. Quigg oživil až po sedmé, when trainer Joe Gallagher warned his charge that he was likely down big on the judges’ scorecards.
Quigg (31-1-2) bušil tělo a byl agresorem v kolech osmi až 11, Ale bylo to příliš málo, příliš pozdě na Lancashire, Anglie rodák. Frampton vyhrál 12th a odešel sjednoceného šampiona skóre 115-113 pro Quigg, ale 116-112 dvakrát pro Frampton.

Zde je to, co bojovníci museli říkat Čtvrtek:

 

LEO SANTA CRUZ

 

“Headlining a televised card has been my childhood dream. I could have never imagined I was going to get this far. And Here I am, on my second main event, defending my title on a premium network. I’m so psyched. I cannot believe it.

 

“The first time I put the gloves on, I knew that I had found my craft, and I also knew that it was not going to be an easy road. I knew that I had to work hard to become a champion. Tak, I trained the hardest and I fought the hardest, and with my father by my side I got here, where I’m at today. I owe him everything.

 

“I remember watching all the great Mexican Champions and day dreaming about being like them one day. It felt unreachable. I thought it was impossible to get where they were. But I worked hard, really hard from the beginning.

 

“The most important thing is that the fans leave happy and get their money’s worth. I’m glad that Kiko has come prepared because we’re ready for a great fight.

 

“People are saying that I should walk through Kiko Martinez, but I don’t listen to that. I look at Kiko the same way I look at any other opponent. When we step inside the ring, we are equals.

 

“At the end of the day, the winner will be the fighter who has prepared more and who has imposed his will on the other man.

 

 

KIKO MARTINEZ

 

“I have faced much stronger boxers than Leo and come Sobota, all of those who did bet on me for this fight, I am going to make you a lot of money.

 

“I am excited and proud to know that Sergio Martinez will be present v sobotu supporting me. His guidance and presence

 

“My trainer could not be here, but we have not taken one day off in training camp and I have been pushed to my limit to prepare me for this fight. I’m thankful to Robert Garcia for being in my corner v sobotu.

 

“I know this is a great opportunity to fight Leo Santa Cruz and I will make the most of it. I’m going to leave everything inside the ring so that the fight fans enjoy a great championship matchup.

 

“I feel that Leo Santa Cruz is a great fighter, he has beat some incredible fighters. He’s a great athlete and boxer. Sometimes people will try to make him out to be more than he actually is but they are mistaken with what they see in me. I am not to be mistaken as the underdog here.

 

 

JULIO CEJA

 

“As Hugo mentioned, we have both trained even harder than last time and we’re more prepared physically and mentally.

 

“I’m going to give everybody a great fight just like last time. I’m walking into the ring knowing my opponent very well. We’ve been to war. I know what to expect from him. I know about his punch and I know how to counter it.

 

“I’m going to be alert and ready. I’ll be a little more intelligent, because I know that he’s coming well prepared and he’s coming for the world title, but he’s not going to get it.

“There are going to be no surprises in this fight. Hugo Ruiz said that he was training harder this time. But I am too. I’ve trained very hard.

 

“The key for me to win this fight is to keep my hands up and to not give him one inch. I cannot be careless. I’ll be strategic and use my wisdom. I cannot come in with my hands down because I know I’ll pay for it. But nothing to worry about, we have rectified those issues in training camp. Jsem připraven. He’s not taking my belt away from me.

 

“I’m glad that he says he is better prepared this time because I am better than ever. My team has been instrumental in preparing me for this matchup.

 

“The winner will be the man who is more prepared physically and mentally. But the real winner will be the fans at Honda Center because this is an amazing card and we’re going to put on an amazing fight.”

 

 

HUGO RUIZ

 

“If you liked the first fight between us, then you are going to love this one.

 

“I’m excited to be fighting once again in Southern California. I’ve trained very hard and I have prepared myself for this world title opportunity.

 

“I’m looking forward to putting on a grand show for all my fans v sobotu v noci. "

 

 

JOSE SANTA CRUZ, Santa Cruz’ Father & Trenér

 

I hear Kiko has a great trainer on his corner. Robert Garcia is really good, but I have news for Kiko, his trainer is not going to fight for him.

Once a fighter steps into the ring, he’s alone in there. There are no trainers and no great promoters that can fight for him.”

 

“Kiko speaks about this prestigious trainer and thinks that by mentioning him, he is going to intimidate us. He has something else coming. The trainer won’t fight for Kiko. Roberto Garcia has trained my son and knows Leo very well but that does not give Kiko the upper hand.”

 

TOM BROWN, Head of TGB Promotions

 

“Southern California favorite Leo Santa Cruz returns to bring his action style to the ring. He will be opposed by a tough former world champion in Kiko Martinez who is sure to make this a tremendous fight.

 

“The first fight between Ceja and Ruiz was a true back and forth war. Should this pick up right where it left off, we will have a great fight to start the telecast.

 

“I’m looking forward to a great night v sobotu night in front of the fantastic Southern California boxing fans.”

 

 

TIM RYAN, výkonný ředitel & President of Honda Center

 

“I’m so thankful to everyone for helping to bring boxing back to Orange County. It’s hard to believe that Julio Cesar Chavez fought here in 1996, because it seems like yesterday.

 

“We have a great arena and a great fan base that loves boxing here in Orange County. Karta v sobotu is wonderful. I know these guys will be ready and I’m looking forward to an action-packed night on the 27th.

 

CHRIS DEBLASIO, Vice President, Sports Communication Showtime Networks

 

“This is a fight fan’s fight card and we are looking forward to some explosive action. I think everyone knows that the lighter weight classes, especially at the championship level, produce exciting fights. My favorite examples include the epic series between Israel Vazquez and Rafael Marquez, which are available on SHOWTIME platforms and should wet your appetite for what we will see v sobotu v noci.
