“These are the fights I need to get to the top,” Menard said. “My opponent, Baha mamadjonov, er engin pushover. He has been in with some quality guys and I have to be able to beat guys like him to get to the top ones. I’m looking forward to getting the job done on August 19th. It’s blessing to be able to fight on SHOWTIME and this time is for the WBO NABO title,” Menard said.”

“I’m excited I’m fighting on ShoBox aftur. It’s a great opportunity” Mamadjonov said. “Menard is no joke. He’s a credible opponent.

“I’m not going to rush on this fight. I’m not going to lie, I’m always looking for the knockout, but if it goes the distance I’d be ready.”

“I’m war-ready,” Nieves said. “I’m excited to finally showcase my skills on the big stage and let the boxing world know that I have graduated to contender. I feel many don’t see that I’m one of the best 118-pounders out there.

“I’m confident I have what it takes to win, and I’m a better boxer. Ég er 100 percent ready for whatever type of fight my Santiago brings. I will box my way to my big shots.

"Eftir þessa baráttu, I’ll probably look for a path to a world title shot. I want to bring a title home, just like the Cleveland Cavaliers brought the NBA Championship home,"

“I know I’m a replacement opponent, but I’m always ready,” Santiago said. “I’m always in training camp. I don’t take any breaks from the gym after I fight. I’m a true Mexican warrior. Always ready.

“I am looking to follow the heritage of great Mexican fighters from Tijuana and bring this win and title back home. I am coming to win. Get ready for war.“

Menard vs. Mamadjonov

The co-main event features promising Louisiana lightweight “Rock Hard Mighty” Mason Menard facing his toughest test to date in Bahodir “Baha” Mamadjonov of Houston, Texas by way of Uzbekistan for the WBO NABO Lightweight Title. Both fighters are making their second appearance onShoBox: The New Generation.

Menard, an eight-year pro at the age of 27, is fighting outside of his native Louisiana for only the second time. He’s is ranked among the Top 15 fighters at 135 pounds in the WBA and WBO. In the most noteworthy victory of his career, he made his ShoBox debut at Turning Stone Casino & Resort last Apríl 15 delivering an impressive Knockout of the Year candidate over previously undefeated Dominican Eudy Bernardo with a vicious one-punch knockout. VIDEO: http://s.sho.com/1NtEYjW

Menard floored Bernardo for the first time in his career with a series of rights near the end of the second round. Bernardo beat the count and finished the round, en hann hafði ekkert svar fyrir krafti Menards. With less than one minute left in third, Menard tengdist stórum rétti, knocking Bernardo out before he even hit the canvas.

Mamadjonov (19-2, 11 Kos), has been matched against very tough opposition throughout his career. His only blemishes were to opponents with a combined record of 46-0 (38 Kos) – Colombian Darleys Perez in Aug., 2012 and Ghana’s Richard Commey in April of last year. Perez went on to become interim WBA Lightweight World Champion and recently lost a rematch against world champion Anthony Crolla. Commey is set to fight Robert Easter Jr. for the vacant IBF World Lightweight Title on Seven. 9.

This is Mamadjonov’s third start since losing to Commey and his secondShoBox útlit. Í hans ShoBox frumraun í apríl, 2013 í Las Vegas, Nev., Mamadjonov scored an upset ninth-round stoppage (:51) against previously unbeaten Cuban prospect Angelo Santana. VIDEO:HTTP://s.sho.com/2aPfkwp

Nieves vs. Santiago

Also featured in the Aug. 19 quadrupleheader are WBO NABO Bantamweight Champion Antonio Nieves and his new foe, Alejandro “Peque” Santiago

Nieves, (16-0-1, 8 Kos), a prospect at 118 £, has stayed active with five fights in 2014, five in 2015, and is fighting for the third time this year. The 29-year-old is coming off his first 10-round performance, a unanimous decision over then once-beaten Oscar mojica á Júní 18 í Washington, Pa. A win against Santiago will put Nieves a step closer to his goal of challenging fellow Ohio-native WBA Super Bantamweight Champion Rau'shee Warren.

Santiago, (11-2-1, 3 Kos), af Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico, is a three-year pro who seldom breaks training camp between fights. He has won three fights in a row since his last loss in November 2014 to fellow Mexican Hector Flores. Í síðustu baráttu hans á Febrúar. 27, Santiago won an eight-round unanimous decision over Mario Lara. This will be his United States debut and the first time he’s fought north of 116 £.

This is what the Miller, Eyubov and promoter Dmitriy orð said Tuesday:

 

JARRELL “BIG BABY” MILLER

On Training Camp…

“Training camp is going real well. I put on a lot of muscle for this camp, I’m going to put on a lot of solid mass, I am going to go in there and manhandle it. Like a chew toy in a dog’s mouth, I want to mangle it.

 

“I’m really committed to this training camp. I’ve made some changes: less cheeseburgers. I cut down from three cheeseburgers to one cheeseburger a day. Same thing, in the gym every day, not doing anything different. My main thing is my strength and my speed and we are going to see, svo sem eins og Ágúst. 19."

On His Opponent, Fred Kassi…

“Supposedly Fred Kassi is the most durable guy I have fought in my whole entire boxing career. This is what they are saying and I tip my hat off to the guy; he’s been in some fights where I thought he won and he ended up on the wrong side of the decision. When he fought other fighters, he had three weeks training camp, two weeks’ notice. He had two months to get ready for this. I’m not a last-minute opponent. He’s going to come in ready and I’m not about to underestimate him.

“I’m a boxer-puncher and he’s more one-dimensional. He switches back and forth, he’s not pretty at what he does, but no worries, you can look at me, because I am nice at what I do.

I predict a fifth-sixth round knockout. Kassi is definitely a doable guy, but I feel once he sees my size and my pressure and the speed that I bring with my footwork – it’s going to be game over for him. I know for a fact I’m going to knock out Fred Kassi, fifth or sixth round. Það er það sem ég geri, I take your heart, I take your soul, I take your ribs.”

On Deontay Wilder…

“Wilder is a wild man when he gets in that ring, but at the same time if you watch how he performs, he performs at a mediocre level against mediocre fighters. If you stick him to a world professional athlete, like myself or top guys, you’ll see him bring even more. Not saying he hasn’t been in the ring with A+ fighters yet, but you can see all his loopholes in his fighting style. It’s just a matter of time before he gets really exposed and I hope it is with me because I want that behind.

“Shorter fighters do what they do, taller fighters do what they do. Deontay is tall but he doesn’t do what his body is designed to do; he’s trying to do something that smaller guys do, so that is going to be his downfall. Eins og ég sagði, it is just a matter of time and I am going to break him in half, him and his toothpick legs.

“I was watching the livestream of the Wilder-Arreola fight and it was horrible. It was horrible because he is the heavyweight champion of the world. He doesn’t understand that he is doing more damage to himself than he thinks he is. He’s getting hurt. He’s getting hit. He’s taking some punishment.

 

“I want to fight Wilder. If he sees my style, if he sees my footwork, he’ll realize I’m no Arthur Pin eða Chris Arreola. And when I get in there, vel, most of my fights end up in knockouts. Ég er 100 percent power. Once I touch them, they are getting hurt.”

 

On Anthony Joshua…

“Joshua is overrated, overhyped. I am going to break that jaw of his. Definitely one of the weakest of the heavyweight champs.

 

“It comes down to the basics. You have a lot of guys that have a lot of punching power and basic skills and that’s not enough. Joshua is a basic heavyweight, a one-two fighter. I could cut that half way across the ring.

 

“I’d fight Joshua when the timing is right. I personally don’t want to go and fight Joshua just because I’m his ‘next.’ I think that when the time is right, it’ll be me and him at the MGM Grand on pay-per-view. One of those super sweepstakes fights, you know.”

 

On Tyson Fury…

“I like Tyson Fury, I still want to break his fingers in half but he is good for the sport of boxing and I feel like me and him for a main event will sell any arena out. He talks a lot of smack and he does back it up, but he is still a jokester and I am real. I will smash him if he tries to step on me in the press conference. I will knock him out, same way I will for everyone else.

“A fight between us two will be like Comedy Central on steroids, it would be bananas. It would sell out kind of like a Mayweather-Pacquiao … I feel like we can capture the heavyweight division and put it back on the map, just because of the way he talks. As an American heavyweight I feel like we have to take over American soil first. I’ll fight anywhere and anytime, but on the business side, I have to take over my country first.”

On the Heavyweight Division…

“They better get motivated now because I’m coming. I’m hungry and I’m motivated. SHOWTIME is having me on the main event on national television. I’m telling you I’m coming, and I’m coming to stay. They better get ready.

 

“I’m different to all the heavyweights out there. I’m not chasing a pay day. I’m chasing a legacy. I’m trying to change the layout. I’m trying to change the game. I’m trying to change my future and make history at the same time.”

 

BAKHTIYAR EYUBOV

“I have had hard training camps before, but this is up there. It’s one of the most intense camps I’ve ever had. I know that people expect me to deliver another knockout, but I’m training to go the distance. I’m scheduled to go 10 rounds and I am preparing myself as best as I can.

 

“My opponent is an experienced and tough fighter. Perhaps my toughest test to date. I’m confident in my skills. He can run, but he can’t hide. There are only four corners, I’ll find him and I’ll do what I came here to do: win.”

 

DMITRIY SALITA

“It is a great honor to be able to promote a show on SHOWTIME and both of these fighters. Miller and Eyubov are both willing to show that they are some of the best in their respective divisions.

 

“It is going to be a great event, happening at a special venue in Rochester at the soccer stadium, outside in the summer time. The show has all the ingredients to be a key event of the summer.”

UNDEFEATED AMERICAN HEAVYWEIGHT JARRELL MILLER TO FACE TOUGH VETERAN FRED KASSI ON FRIDAY, Ágúst. 19 IN MAIN EVENT OF SHOBOX: THE NEW KYNSLÓÐ

NEW YORK (Júní 30, 2016) – Undefeated heavyweight Jarrell Miller claims he’s America’s top heavyweight prospect. “Big Baby” will get a chance to back up his boast when he faces his toughest test to date in veteran Fred Cat í aðalkeppni á ShoBox: The New Generation á Föstudagur, Ágúst. 19.

 

The confident and hard-hitting Miller (17-0-1, 15 Kos) and the durable and vastly experienced Kassi (18-5-1, 10 Kos) will headline a tripleheader live on Showtime á 10 p.m. OG/PT from the outdoor soccer venue Rhinos Stadium in Rochester, N.Y..

 

Two undefeated young bantamweight prospects will square off in theShoBox co-feature as world-ranked Nikolay Potapov (14-0-1, 6 Kos) og Antonio Nieves (16-0-1, 8 Kos) meet in a 10-round bantamweight bout.

 

Í opnun lota á útsending, undefeated welterweight knockout artist Bakhtiyar Eyubov (10-0, 10 Kos) will face battle-tested veteran Karim Mayfield (19-3-1, 11 Kos) in a 10-round match.

 

Tickets for the event presented by Salita Promotions go on sale á föstudaginn á Noon ET og eru í boði á http://www.rhinossoccer.com/og HTTP://www.etix.com

 

“This is an amazing opportunity. I’m in the main event going against a tough opponent, and he’s definitely game to fight,” Miller said. “I’m ready to put his lights out like I do everybody else. I know he’s durable and a little older than me. He’s a tough guy and he can take a beating. Hingað til, he’s only been stopped once. I’ll be the second.

 

“I’m going back to basics in this camp. I’m an advanced fighter, but there are a couple of things I’ve wanted to work on. It’s easy for heavyweights to rely on power and forget about technique. You see what happened to Dominic Breazeale against Anthony Joshua? His power didn’t mean jack because there was no technique behind it. I want to be the kind of fighter who puts his technique first and power last.”

 

“I approach Jarrell like all young fighters,” Kassi said. “I’m a seasoned pro that has fought top-tier opponents. Jarrell will have to bring his ‘A game’ against me. He’s got size and power, but it’s nothing I haven’t seen. I’m tired of getting robbed by judges like in El Paso (against Chris Arreola), and in Alabama (against Dominic Breazeale). That should have been me fighting Anthony Joshua in The O2. Against (Hughie) Fury, the cut saved him. Another round or two and he would have been done. Then we heard what we always hear, ‘oh, Fury had a bad night, so did Breazeale, so did Arreola.’ They all seem to have ‘bad’ nights when I’m in the other corner. I’m hoping to actually get some credit when Miller has a ‘bad’ night too. I’m a heavyweight boxer, that’s boxer underlined. I move my feet, I use angles, I hit and don’t get hit. That’s boxing and it’s my art. Boxing fans are going to have a great time watching me dismantle a giant.”

 

“I am very happy to be back on SHOWTIME fighting the best opponent of my career,” Eyubov said. “I know this will be my hardest fight to date and that’s what motivates me. I am grateful that I am getting an opportunity to prove myself and I want to show that I am ready for the best fighters in the world. I am ready for the boxing world to know my name. Ágúst 19, Karim Mayfield, here I come.”

 

“This will be a special event at Rochester Rhinos soccer stadium. We have America’s brightest heavyweight contender in Jarrell ‘Big Baby’ Miller and a knockout sensation out of Brooklyn by way of Kazakhstan in Bakhtiyar ‘Bakha’ Eyubov,” promoter Dmitriy orð sagði. “This show has all the ingredients to be one of the most talked about boxing events of the summer, and we think Miller has all the skills and charisma to break through in the heavyweight division. I am grateful to SHOWTIME and Rhinos Stadium that boxing fans will witness talented fighters in their toughest fights to date. I look forward to an explosive night of boxing.”

 

“Wendy and I are so excited to be hosting both SHOWTIME and the fighting debut of Jarrell ‘Big Baby’ Miller at Rhinos Stadium,"Sagði Wendy og David Dworkin, owners of the Rochester Rhinos soccer stadium. "Ágúst 19 will be a great opportunity to showcase our stadium and the City of Rochester to a nationwide audience.”

 

The menacing Miller, a 6-foot-4 Brooklyn, N.Y.. móðurmál, is a consensus top 15 heavyweight – he’s ranked No. 8 í WBO, Gera ekki. 9 in the WBA and No. 14 í IBF. The 27-year-old former professional kickboxer has knocked out six consecutive opponents as he’s risen through the rankings as one of America’s top heavyweight hopes. Prior to Miller’s knockout of nick Guivas á Maí 27, his previous two fights were onShoBox – a third round destruction of Akhror Muralimov last October and a knockout of Donovan Dennis in January in which he was pushed to the seventh round for the first time.

 

Kassi has been in with some of the most recognizable names in the heavyweight division, Ásamt Amir Mansour, Dominic Breazeale og Hughie Fury. The 36-year-old fought to a disputed majority draw with three-time world title challenger Chris Arreola last July on PBC on CBS in which most ringside observers, Ásamt ShoBox sérfræðingur Steve Farhood, had Kassi winning by a wide margin. The New Orleans resident has been stopped just once – in 2014 by Mansour – and stands as an excellent barometer for Miller’s progression as a legitimate contender.

 

The fast-rising Potapov, of Potolsk, Rússland, is ranked in the top 15 in three of the four sanctioning bodies (Gera ekki. 7 WBO, Gera ekki. 13 IBF, Gera ekki. 14 WBA) after just 15 faglega berst. A former amateur standout with over 200 berst, the 25-year-old Potapov has already gone at least 10 rounds seven times since turning professional in 2010. The only blemish on his record is a draw with undefeated prospect Stephon Young í síðustu baráttu hans á Apríl 15 á ShoBox.

 

Coincidently, the only blemish on Antonio Nieves’ record is a 2015 draw with Stephon Young. The 29-year-old is coming off his first 10-round performance, a unanimous decision over then once-beaten Oscar mojica júní 18. The Cleveland, Ohio native will face his toughest opponent to date in fellow unbeaten Potapov in the matchup of unbeaten bantamweights.

 

The Brooklyn-based Eyubov has passed every test he’s faced, and knocked out all of his opponents in the process. The 29-year-old native of Kazakhstan is coming off an impressive third-round stoppage of veteran Jared Robinson last January on ShoBox. Eyubov will step up his level of opposition when he faces Karim Mayfield, a 35-year-old veteran who owns wins over Mauricio Herrera og Steve Forbes and has never been stopped in 23 berst.

VERONA, N.Y.. (Apríl 15, 2016) – Ósigraðar bantamvigtarhorfur Nikolay Potapov og Stephon Young barðist fyrir meirihlutajafntefli íShoBox: The New Generation helstu atburði Föstudagur á SHOWTIME frá Turning Stone Resort Casino í Verona, N.Y..

 

Markið var skorað 96-94 Potapov og 95-95 tvisvar.

 

Potapov og Young stóðu frammi fyrir erfiðustu andstæðingum sínum. Potapov (14-0-1, 6 Kos) stjórnaði hraðanum snemma með stungu sinni og var virkari bardagamaðurinn, kastaði næstum tvöföldu höggunum sem Young kastaði. Young tók upp dampinn og öðlaðist sjálfstraust í miðjuhringunum og var upp á sitt besta þegar hann pressaði aðgerðina og sleppti höndum.. En Rússinn Potapov, sem hafði farið að minnsta kosti 10 umferðir í síðustu sex bardögum sínum, var greinilega þægilegri eftir því sem leið á bardagann.

 

Eftir að hafa hægt á sjöundu og áttundu, Young (14-0-3, 6 Kos) fann annan gír á glæsilegum níunda, vinna næstsíðustu umferð á öllum skorkortum dómara. En, jafnvel eftir aðkallandi fyrirmæli úr horni hans, Young gat ekki borið skriðþungann inn í 10th og tapaði lokaumferðinni á öllum þremur skorkortunum.

 

„Ég er mjög ósáttur við ákvörðunina. Í hvert skipti sem hann sló mig, Ég sló hann tvisvar,“ sagði Potapov, sem kastaði 315 jabs miðað við bara 113 fyrir Young. „Ég var miklu uppteknari bardagamaðurinn. Ég veit ekki hvaða bardaga dómararnir voru að horfa á. Í mesta lagi tapaði ég fjórum lotum.

 

„Ég hef aldrei gert jafntefli áður. Mér finnst ég vera svikinn eftir sigur. Ég var mjög ánægður með að berjast í Ameríku en mér finnst ég vera svikinn núna."

 

Eftir að berjast, St. Young, innfæddur Louis, varð fyrir vonbrigðum en vissi að hann þyrfti að kasta fleiri höggum.

 

„Mér finnst þetta vera góður bardagi, en ég hefði átt að fá ákvörðunina,“ sagði Young. „Ég meiddi hann í hvert skipti sem ég lem hann. Ég lét hann vera uppteknari en ég, en hvað varðar tengiliðinn, Mér finnst eins og ég hafi náð áhrifaríkari höggunum. Það var stefnan mín.

 

„Ég hefði átt að koma aðeins fyrr. Það var planið mitt, en ég slakaði aðeins á í baráttunni. Ég kom inn á í níundu umferð þegar þjálfarinn minn sagði mér að koma honum þaðan.

 

„Mig langar svo sannarlega í aukaleik. Ég myndi vilja gera það aftur."

Stöndum frammi fyrir erfiðasta andstæðingi sínum til þessa, Menard á gólfi (31-1, 23 Kos) Bernardo í fyrsta skipti á ferlinum með fjölda réttinda undir lok annarrar umferðar. Dóminískan Bernardo vann talninguna og kláraði hringinn, en hann hafði ekkert svar fyrir krafti Menards. Innan við ein mínúta í þriðja, Menard tengdist stórum rétti, bankar á Bernardo (21-1, 15 Kos) út áður en hann sló á striga.

 

„Ég gaf út yfirlýsingu kvöld. Það vissu ekki margir hver ég var að fara í þetta, en þeir þekkja mig núna,“ sagði Menard, sem lenti næstum því 50 prósent af orku skot hans. „Hraði minn, kraftur og fótaburður var munurinn.

 

„Ég bað fyrir honum í miðjum hringnum að hann færi aftur til fjölskyldu sinnar heilbrigður.

 

Bernardo, sem var fjarlægður úr hringnum á börum í varúðarskyni, var fluttur á nærliggjandi heilsugæslu Oneida þar sem hann var vakandi og móttækilegur.

 

Í opnun lota á útsending, ósigraður cruiserweightConstantin Bejenaru hönd Alexey Zubov fyrsta tapið á ferlinum í sannfærandi átta lotu samhljóða dómi 77-74, 78-73 tvisvar.

 

Sparaðu fyrir leifturslys í sjöundu lotu, Bejenaru (11-0, 4 Kos) stjórnaði bardaganum frá upphafi. Moldóva innfæddur sigraði fjögurra tommu hæðarókost, ráðast á frá mismunandi sjónarhornum og stjórna skiptum innan sem utan. Zubov (10-1, 6 Kos) komst aldrei í takt og náði ekki að nýta sér forskot sitt gegn virkum og íþróttamannlegum suðurfótum.

 

„Hann var góður klassískur boxari, en hann er of hreinskilinn og hann gat ekki stillt sig,sagði Bejenaru. „Það var ekki eins auðvelt og það leit út fyrir að sigra hann. Ég breytti stílnum mínum til að gera það vegna þess að ég vissi að það myndi fá hann til að hika. Ég vissi að ef ég myndi bara ráðast stöðugt á hann myndi hann ekki vita hvað ég ætti að gera."

 

Zubov og Bernardo eru nú 146th og 147th hnefaleikamenn verða fyrir fyrsta tapi atvinnumanna á Prospect Development Series.

 

Föstudagur er þriggja bardaga útsending verður endursýnd Þriðjudagur á 10 p.m. OG/PT á SHOWTIME EXTREME og verður í boði á SHOWTIME ON DEMAND í byrjun apríl 16

RÚSSNESKI ZUBOV LIFUR DRUMUM SÍNA AÐ BÆRA FYRIR KRONK ræktina í DETROIT Á meðan hann undirbýr sig fyrir SHOBOX SÍN.: NÝJA KYNSLÓÐIN FREMRUM Á FÖSTUDAGINN, Apríl 15

Skildu eftir athugasemd
BROOKLYN, NY (Apríl 12, 2016) – Sem krakki að alast upp í Magnitogorsk, Rússland,cruiserweight Alexey Zubov heyrt sögur um hið þekkta Kronk Gym og hinn látna goðsagnakennda þjálfara Emanuel Steward, en hélt aldrei að hann ætti möguleika á að ganga til liðs við liðið. En svo einn daginn, fyrrverandi áhugamannameistarinn var beðinn um að koma til Detroit til að spreyta sig við Johnathon Banks frá Kronk … og restin er saga.
Þetta Föstudagur, Apríl 15, hinn ósigraði Zubov (10-0, 6 Kos) mun gera Mandilesti, Moldóvu Constantin Bejenaru (10-0, 4 Kos, WSB: 0-1-1) í átta umferða opnunarleik alþjóðlegs sjónvarps ShoBox: The New Generation í beinni á SHOWTME (10 p.m. OG/PT, seinkað á vesturströnd) á Beygja Stone Resort Casino í Verona, New York.
Kynnt af Salita Promotions í tengslum við AASHA Record Breakers,á aðalviðburðinum verður IBF nr. 10-sæti í bantamvigt Nikolay Potapov (14-0, 6 Kos), frá Podolsk, Rússland, taka á Stephon Young (14-0-2, 6 Kos), St. Louis, Missouri í 10 lotu bardaga. Í sam-aðalkeppni, Eudy Bernardo (21-0, 15 Kos) Dóminíska lýðveldisins andlit Mason “Rock Hard Mighty” Menard (30-1-0, 22 Kos), af Rayne, Louisiana, í átta lotu bardaga.
Miðar eru í sölu núna og hægt er að kaupa miða á Turning Stone Resort Casino Box Office, með því að hringja í síma 877.833.SÝNING, eða á netinu á Ticketmaster.com. Þeir eru á verði á $60 fyrir ringside sæti, $35 og $25.
“Ég hef verið í Detroit síðustu tvo mánuði og ég er svo ánægður; Ég vil vera hér, þjálfa hér og búa hér,” sagði Zubov. “Allir rússneskir bardagamenn vita um Kronk Gym og Emanuel Steward.”
Zubov er um þessar mundir að hætta búðum með þjálfara sínum og Javan, frænda Steward “Sugar” Hill í endurvakandi Kronk Gym. “Mér líkar stíll Javan,” sagði Zubov, “og ég hef lært svo mikið um handahraða og fótavinnu og um að nota greind í hringnum – hvernig þú þarft að hugsa þegar þú ert í slagsmálum.”
“Alexey er fær um að læra mikið og tileinka sér hnefaleikaþekkingu auðveldlega,” sagði Hill. “Hann talar varla ensku en samt drekkur hann í sig. Það er ótrúlegt. Ég fékk hann til að sparra með Banks og þegar við vorum að æfa, Alexey sat bara á hliðinni og horfði á. Síðar, hann var að spjalla við Johnathon og ég sagði honum að hætta. Ég sagði „heyrðu hér. Ég er að þjálfa Jonathan Banks og þú gerir allt sem ég sagði honum að gera. Hvað er að þér?’ Svo hló ég og sagði: „Mér líkar þetta. Haltu áfram að fylgjast með. Ég skal kenna þér allt sem þú vilt vita.’ “
Hill segir að þessar búðir með Zubov hafi verið umskipti fyrir bardagakappann. “Við erum að færa okkur inn á meistarastigið þar sem þú æfir fyrir ákveðinn bardagamann. Mikið af því er stefnumótun og áætlanagerð. Það eina sem ég hef áhyggjur af er að hann sé of spenntur. Hann er mjög sterkur og vill sanna hlutina. Ég verð að stjórna honum og koma í veg fyrir að hann verði of spenntur. Það er það sem við höfum verið að vinna að. Hann verður pirraður þegar hann er spenntur.”
“Þjálfunin var fyrirmynd. Ég er 100 prósent tilbúinn,” sagði Zubov. “Ég veit að Bejenaru er suðurpabbi og hann er lágvaxinn strákur með gott metorð. Þetta er í fyrsta skipti sem ég er á SHOWTIME og ég er svo ánægður með að sýna heiminum hvað ég get gert.”

Þeir eru á verði á $60 fyrir ringside sæti, $35 og $25.
The 29-year-old Bernardo (21-0, 15 Kos) Santo Domingo, is hard at work at Hank’s Gym in Houston, with his trainer, former IBF World Middleweight Champion Frank Tate.
“Ég er í góðu formi. Mér finnst sterkur,” said Bernardo via translator. “I’ve learned so much from Frank Tate and I’m proud to be working with him. Hann er frábær þjálfari. I’m learning to throw better combinations and I’ve improved my defense, jab minn, and my foot movement since we teamed up.”
Bernardo says he still doesn’t know much about opponent Menard, but isn’t worried about it. “I watched a few of his fights on YouTube, but I’m training for anything that comes my way. Everything is going to go great for me that night. It’s my ring that night and I will have my way. I will win.”
This is opportunity is a long-time coming for the 29-year-old and he says he plans on making the most of it. “I’m very excited about fighting on ShoBox and I look forward to putting on a show. I’ve been waiting for long time for this opportunity and want to thank Dmitriy Salita for making it happen.”
The 27-year-old Menard (30-1-0, 22 Kos), frá Rayne, The., is rated No. 15 by the WBA at 135 £. He’s training at Red Lerille’s Health & Racquet Club in Lafayette with trainer and former fighter “Bad” Chad Broussard.
“I’ve learned how to be a better person in and out of the ring from Chad,” said Menard. “I’ve been with him for nine years. I’ve learned how to put punches together better and sit on my shots more. I’ve learned how to cut angles. I’ve learned so much from Chad.”
Menard says despite the usual aches and pain experienced in camp he is 100 percent and training is going well. The only adjustments he’s made is to bring in taller sparring partners.
“This is huge for me,” he continued. “This is the ‘get up or lay down’ type of fight. If I get up, then the sky is the limit. If I fall, then maybe it’s time to look for a job. I’m going to get in there and do what I have to do. Hopefully I get the KO, but if it goes to the scorecards, I just want the win. No matter which way it goes.”

Unbeaten Bantamweights Nikolay Potapov and Stephon Young
Meet in Main Event; In Co-Feature, Undefeated Lightweight Eudy Bernardo Faces Mason Menard; Alexey Zubov Risks Perfect Record
Against Constantin Bejenaru, Devastating Bakhtiyar Eyubov Takes On Sam Teah

 

Live á Showtime® Á 10 p.m. OG/PT

Miðasala hafin

NEW YORK (Mars 16, 2016) –Eight talented up-and-coming boxers with a combined record of 116-2-4, 71 KOs will compete on a compelling ShoBox: The New Generation quadrupleheader á Föstudagur, Apríl 15, lifa á Showtime (10 p.m. OG/PT, seinkað á vesturströnd) frá Beygja Stone Resort Casino í Verona, N.Y..

 

In a clash of unbeaten bantamweights in the main event, undefeated world-ranked Nikolay Potapov (14-0, 6 Kos), frá Podolsk, Rússland, andlit Stephon Young (14-0-2, 6 Kos), St. Louis, Miss. í 10-umferð lota. Eudy Bernardo (21-0, 15 Kos) Dóminíska lýðveldisins andlit Mason “Rock Hard Mighty” Menard (30-1-0, 22 Kos), af Rayne, The., in an eight/10-round battle of hard-hitting lightweights in the co-feature.

 

Promising Russian cruiserweight Alexey Zubov (10-0, 6 Kos) measures against Constantin Bejenaru (10-0, 4 Kos, WSB: 0-1-1) af Mandilesti, Moldóva, in one of the eight-round bouts.

 

The two ShoBox returnees will box in the eight-round telecast opener when Kazakhstan’s devastating junior welterweight Bakhtiyar “Bakha Bullet” Eyubov (10-0, 10 Kos), af Brooklyn, N.Y., takes on Liberia-born Samuel Seah (7-1-1, 2 Kos), Philadelphia, Pa.

Six of the fighters, all seeking to establish their credibility and make a name for themselves, are newcomers to the network and will be making their ShoBox debuts on a four-fight telecast that has a distinct international flavor (two Americans, two Russians, one Romanian, one from Kazakhstan, one Dominican and one from Liberia).

Tickets for the event presented by Salita Promotions in association with AASHA Record Breakers are currently on sale and can be purchased at the Turning Stone Resort Casino Box Office, með því að hringja í síma 877.833.SÝNING, eða á netinu á Ticketmaster.com. Miðar eru verðlagðar á $60 fyrir ringside sæti, $35 og $25.

The fast-rising Potapov, of Potolsk, Rússland, is ranked 10th í IBF. Extremely rare for a fighter at this point in his career, he’s already gone 10 rounds five times and 12 rounds once against good opposition. This is his second start in the United States since signing with Salita Promotions in June 2015. The 5-foot-4, 26-year-old is coming off a shutout 10-round decision over Pedro Melo síðasta Október. 29 í Brooklyn.

 

An outstanding amateur with international success, Potapov had around 200 fights before he turned pro in March 2010. Hann fór 13-0 as a pro in Russia. In his outing before last – and last in his homeland — he produced perhaps a career-best performance while winning a unanimous 12-round decision over then-IBF No. 10-raðað Jasoin Canoy, on Nov. 8, 2015.

“I’ve been training very hard to make my ShoBox debut a spectacular one,’’ Potapov said. “This will be my second fight in New York against a very skilled boxer in Stephon Young, who is undefeated like me. I look forward to a great competitive fight and I’m putting in my work to come out on top.’’

 

Young is a talented, lightning-fast-handed southpaw who’s done more than enough to deserve his standing as a rising star in the Midwest. He’s making his 2016 and 10-round debut.

 

Like Potapov, Young was a top-notch amateur. He compiled a record of 86-13 while representing the United States in many tournaments. In theU.S. Olympic Trials in 2011, he lost to the No. 1-rated amateur,Rau'shee Warren.

 

His pedigree solid and after years of having “celebrated amateur” permanently affixed to his name, Young turned pro in August 2011.The 5-foot-5, 27-year-old has gone eight rounds once and six rounds on four occasions. He’s coming off a third-round TKO over Terrance Roysíðasta Ágúst. 8 and by far his toughest task, Young boxed unbeaten Antonio Nieves to an eight-round draw on June 20, 2015.

 

Young hasn’t fought near the caliber of fighters as Potapov but he’s excited and optimistic about Apríl 15. “This is a great opportunity for me, going up against another undefeated fighter in front of the world onShoBox,’’ Young said. “You can’t pass up an opportunity like that. Þjálfun er að fara mikill. I’m training with some of the top notch fighters in the world like Juan Carlos Payano, Claudio Marrero og Yenifel Vicente.

“I know little about my opponent, but what I know makes me feel like we are the perfect match. We both have good records and we are both good fighters, but once I bring my A game, he’d be helpless. I will be watching all my P’s and Q’s. Once you get me in that zone I have no doubt I will win.’’

Bernardo, a 29-year-old with a million-dollar smile – and a punch to match — has registered knockouts in nine of his last 10 berst. In Menard, he’s facing unquestionably the most seasoned foe of his career. This is Bernardo’s fourth U.S. start and second in a row. He’s coming off a clinically ruthless second-round demolition of Ben Odametey síðasta Febrúar. 6 í Detroit, mig.

 

Born and raised in Santo Domingo, Dóminíska lýðveldið, Bernardo had an extensive amateur career (128 berst) before turning pro in October 2009. He captured the Dominican Republic Lightweight Title in his fourth start. Tall for his division at 5-foot-10½, Bernardo is aggressive, technically sound and possesses two-fisted power.

“With him being 30-1, beating Mason Menard will take me to the next level, exactly where I want to go,’’ said Bernardo, who trains in Houston with former world champion Frank Tate. “I’m excited about this fight onShoBox because it’s a good opportunity for America to get to know me. Þjálfun er að fara mjög vel. Every day I am learning. My diet is terrific. My whole team is with me, pushing me to get better.’’

Menard, former Louisiana State and UBO All-Americas Lightweight Champion, is a pressure and hard-punching fighter who’s won 28 in a row.

He has fought all but one of his fights in Louisiana and this will be his second start í 21 mánuðum. In his most recent effort, hann hætti Jesus Lule-Raya in the first round on Aug. 8, 2015.

 

While inactivity could pose a problem, Menard is primed for Bernardo. Nobody, segir hann, is going to deter him from his aspirations of making it to the top.

 

“It’s blessing to me to be able to fight and showcase my talent on SHOWTIME,’’ said Menard, who has weighed at or around 135 pounds throughout a pro career that began in October 2007. “It’s been a part of a dream of mine to do so and to one day fight for a major world title. ÁApríl 15, Bernardo stands between me and my dreams. It’s all or nothing. It’s rise or lay down. Apríl 15 is the day I’ll be able to be known as a real legit fighter. I WILL NOT let this guy stop me from accomplishing any of those things. Quote me, I will give it my all, I will rise, I will be known and I will be world champion.’’

 

Zubov, a sensational former international amateur standout and seven-time cruiserweight tournament champion in Russia and Europe, turned pro in April 2014. His first five fights were in the U.S. – four in California and one in Brooklyn. He won all but one inside the distance.

 

The 6-foot-1½-inch 30-year-old will be making his 2016 debut after fighting four times in 2015 og sex sinnum í 2014. Zubov’s last five fights were in Russia; he is coming off a first-round TKO over Rihards Bigissíðasta Nóvember. 29.

Zubov was born and raised in Magnitogorsk, a city which isn’t exactly a fistic hotbed. Getting into boxing was hardly common for his corner of the world. He didn’t grow up in a nasty neighborhood or fighting in the streets. Í raun, he has a profound mathematical background, having attended a special school that concentrated on physics and mathematics. But while his first sport was hockey, he took to boxing.

Regarding his upcoming skirmish, Zubov said, “I spent several weeks training at the Kronk Boxing Gym with Javan ‘Sugar’ Hill in Detroit for my ShoBox Frumraun. I learn every day in the gym and look forward to putting my knowledge to use Apríl 15 á ShoBox. I want to follow in the footsteps of all the great Kronk fighters.’’

Bejenaru a Moldovan-born fighting out of Catskill, N.Y., er gerð hans 2016 Frumraun. Since moving to the U.S., the 5-foot-10, 31-year-old southpaw is 10-0 með 1 No Contest dating to September 2012. Í síðustu skemmtiferð hans, he won a unanimous eight-round decision over Joel Shojgreen á október. 14, 2015.

“I know Zubov is a good fighter. I am training very hard and have been waiting for an opportunity like this so people can see just what I can do,’’ said Bejenaru, who was born in a Moldovia, a small land-locked country in Eastern Europe. “I am ready to go and very excited about this fight.’’

 

Sem áhugamaður, Bejenaru won a bronze medal at the 2006 European Amateur Boxing Championships, multiple medals at the European Union Amateur Boxing Championships and the Gold Medal at the 2010 World Combat Games.

 

Yeyubov, 29, of Astana, Kazahstan, has fought a total of 16 rounds in his 10 fights since going pro in February 2012. A one-main offensive juggernaut, he’s scored six first-round knockouts, two second-round knockouts and two third-round knockouts. This will be his ninth fight in the U.S.

 

Í hans ShoBox debut in his last start this past Jan. 22, Eyubov droppedJared Robinson, three times en route to a third-round TKO (0:56).

 

“I’m honored to be back on ShoBox,’’ said the 5-foot-6 Eyubov who’s promoted by Salita Promotions. “I went back home to Kazakhstan after my last fight and came back with more inspiration and motivation to be the best fighter in the world. I am training very hard every day in New York City and look forward to putting on a show Apríl 15. My gratitude toShoBox for giving a young upcoming fighter like me the opportunity to showcase his skills against the best possible opponents on national TV in the U.S. It’s just amazing.’’

Eyubov got into boxing the hard way. “I used to live in a very bad neighborhood and would constantly get into street fights. I’m not a big guy so I started boxing to learn to defend myself,'' Sagði hann. “I had over 150 áhugamaður berst. I won about 125-130, most were by knockout. I beat Olympic champions and international champions, but I was not allowed to travel. It might have been because of where I come from – they didn’t have political connections. They’d tell me, ‘Win by knockout, or you’re not going to win.’ I had to fight heavier guys sometimes. But I was so rough and hit so hard, I’d ruin some of their best fighters at my weight.’’

 

Já, a 5-7, 28-ára gamall, vann hans ShoBox and eight-round debut lastNóvember. 6 with an upset, unanimous decision over previously undefeatedO'Shanique Foster. Teah outpointed Foster, who would go on to win his ensuring start on ShoBox.

 

“It’s a privilege and honor to be facing Eyubov on SHOWTIME,’’ said Teah, who’s coming off an eight-round draw against Demond Brock síðasta Jan. 22. “I don’t know much about him. I know he’s from Kazakhstan with a perfect record. He fought last time I fought on the same card, but I didn’t get to see him and he didn’t get to see me. Now we get to fight each other. When I got the call I was in the gym already, just not in a fight mindset. Now it’s just matter of turning up the intensity and getting ready for an aggressive opponent and getting my fight mindset going.’’

 

Já, who was born in Liberia, fled with his family to Ghana, where his father’s from, to escape the civil war when Sam was a youngster. The family’s been in the U.S. since he was 10.
