MINNEAPOLIS – February 26, 2023 -Power-punchingSubriel Matiasshowed why he’s become one of boxing’s most vaunted knockout artists as he stopped the previously unbeatenJeremias Ponceafter five rounds to win the vacant IBF 140-pound World Championship Saturday night live on SHOWTIME from The Armory in Minneapolis headlining a Premier Boxing Champions event.

Puerto Rico’s Matias (19-1, 19 Biaya) captured the title in an electric firefight that saw the two top-ranked 140-pounders throw over 800 combined punches in five rounds according to CompuBox. For Matias, the victory culminated a long journey that had him away from his family for nearly a year as he trained in Mexico for his first title opportunity.

“I’m on cloud nine right now,” kata Matias. “I don’t think I’ve woken up from this dream. Maybe I can tell you how it feels tomorrow, tapi sekarang, it’s a dream come true. I wanted to work him from the first round on, because I knew he wouldn’t have the same power as me as the fight went on.”

Ponce (30-1, 20 Biaya) came out extremely aggressive and looked to swarm Matias early as he threw 96 punches in round one, out landing Matias 28 untuk 11. Matias adjusted in round two, closing the distance and smothering Ponce to dull some of his attack while also finding spots for his own short power punches.

I thought it was an even fight, but one punch can change everything and that’s what happened,” said Ponce. “Subriel is a tough, strong fighter and I knew what he was capable of.”

After landing a powerful left hand that hurt Ponce late in round four, Matias returned determined and sharp in round five, pendaratan 47% of his power punches over the three minutes. In the waning moments of the round, Matiaslanded the decisive blows, a series of head and body shots that badly hurt Matias and put him on the mat.

Ponce was able to make it to his stool, but his corner had seen enough and suggested that the fight be stopped, with the official result coming as a TKO at the end of round five.

“I’m fine now,” said Ponce. “My team knows me, and they made the decision that they had to make. It hurts, but the most important thing is that I’m healthy.”

“I wasn’t really surprised,” kata Matias. “Once I saw how his corner reacted. I saw that [Ponce] was hurt. I thought that I was patient in the first four rounds, so I came out with a different approach and mindset in the fifth.”

Setelah pertarungan, with his IBF belt in tow, Matias set his sights on a unification showdown against WBC 140-pound World Champion Regis Prograis.

“Regis Prograis, I’m coming for you,” kata Matias. “I’m the world champion now. I promise that I’m coming to hurt you. Prograis likes to talk the talk, but I have that same mentality. Let’s see who prevails. I want him to see that there are people crazier than him in this sport.”

Dalam acara co-main, Minneapolis-native and welterweight contenderJamal “Shango” James(28-2, 12 Biaya) returned from a 16-month layoff to thrill a sold-out hometown crowd and earn a unanimous decision victory after 10-rounds against Argentine OlympianAlberto Palmetta(18-2, 13 Biaya).

“I’m pretty sure everybody can see that layoff affected me,” said James. “I had a lot of rust in me. My legs weren’t sharp, my punches weren’t sharp, but I’m glad I was able to get in there. I liked that because it’s pushing me mentally and it made me step up to the occasion.”

“I thought it was an even fight,” said Palmetta. “I was the aggressor throughout against a former world champion, a taller opponent with longer reach than me.”

In his first action since losing his WBA Welterweight Title to Radzhab Butaev in October 2021, James picked up his fifth career victory at the friendly confines of The Armory. Using his considerable height and reach advantage, James was able to control much of the action and contest the bout on his terms.

“I was trying to adapt,” said James. “I definitely felt like I won the fight but I believe I could’ve done much better. I know that I’m a lot sharper. I know that my endurance is a lot stronger. I just had a lot of time off and my body is still getting back in shape. I’ll be back for sure.”

“I also like to counter, but I ratcheted up the pressure in the second half of the fight,” said Palmetta. “Maybe it looked like Jamal James was superior in the first half because he kept being conservative and countering.”

Palmetta had success countering James but was unable to put together enough combinations or hurt James during the action. James’ edge was reflected on the scorecards, as he out landed Palmetta 193 untuk 111, termasuk 153 untuk 102 edge in power punches.

James was also able to use a sharp body attack to keep Palmetta at bay, pendaratan 68 throughout the fight, dibandingkan dengan hanya 20 from Palmetta. In round nine, a sharp right uppercut caused Palmetta to stumble and let to a raucous exchange that stirred James’ hometown fans.

The crowd again rose to their feet as James and Palmetta whipped power punches throughout the final moments of round 10. James kept his perfect record at The Armory intact by wide scores of 99-91 dan 98-92 dua kali.

“I know I can be a champion again because I was a champion before,” said James. “I have to stay focused. Stay in the gym and back and study this fight – actually, my last two fights – and step it up. Thanks to everybody in Minneapolis for coming and showing me love.”

Di pembuka siaran, super lightweight contenderElvis Rodriguez(14-1-1,12 Biaya) overcame a slow start to earn a hard-fought majority decision over the hard-hittingJoseph Adorno(17-2-2, 14 Biaya) setelah 10 putaran.

“Ring rust was definitely a factor,” said Rodriguez. “Maybe the struggle was more mental than physical in a way, but the important thing is that I overcame it.”

After a couple of rounds feeling each other out, Adorno was the first to have success, showing a varied attack with hooks to the body and head. He punctuated a strong fourth round with several counter hooks right before the closing bell.

In round five the action began to heat up, with Rodriguez starting to find a home for his offense as well, while still taking consistent return fire from Adorno. Rodriguez would eventually take control of the fight in the seventh roundlanding a perfect right hook that badly hurt Adorno. Rodriguez followed up quickly and forced Adorno to the canvas to score the knockdown, although Adorno was able to stay in the fight and make it through the round.

“I thought I had him once I landed that right hook, but he got up,” said Rodriguez. “He’s a warrior and a good fighter… The seventh round was huge, that’s when I truly started to win this fight. I have to give credit to Adorno for being savvy and knowing how to keep his distance before then.”

Rodriguez rode that momentum through the rest of the fight, out landing Adorno 52 untuk 33 across rounds seven through 10. The Freddie Roach-trained contender punctuated his victory in the final frame, landing a left that referee Jon Schorle ruled a knockdown, despite the objection from Adorno, who felt he was tripped during the exchange.

After the 10rounds Rodriguez emerged victorious on the judges’ cards, as one score of 94-94 was overruled by tallies of 95-93 dan 97-91. Post-fight, Adorno expressed his belief that his early success was enough for him to earn a better result, while Rodriguez set his sights on the new 140-pound champion Matias.

I thought the judges were blind,” said Adorno. “I can’t get a win with these judges. I don’t know how you see the fight 97-91. I thought I won every round except the ones he dropped me. He never out worked me at all. I had the jab in his face and was snapping him to the body. He couldn’t do anything. No way he won seven rounds. I thought 94-94 was okay because of the two knockdowns.

“Like I said yesterday at the weigh-in, bring on the winner of the main event,” said Rodriguez. “And to my people in the Dominican Republic, just know that I’ll be back even bolder and even better next time.”

TERRELL GAUSHA: “WE’RE GOING TO GIVE TIM TSZYU A DIFFERENT LOOK THAN HE’S EVER SEEN BEFORE”

Super Welterweight Contender Gausha Faces Unbeaten Rising Star Tim Tszyu in SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING®

Acara Utama Sabtu, Bulan Maret 26 dari The Armory di Minneapolis

LOS ANGELES – March 17, 2022 - DIRI KITA. Olympian and super welterweight contenderTerrell Gaushais confident that he’ll be spoiling the stateside debut of unbeaten rising starTim Tszyuwhen they square off on Saturday, Bulan Maret 26 hidup di SHOWTIME® headlining a Premier Boxing Champions event from The Armory in Minneapolis.

“We’ve been working on some different things for this fight,” said Gausha. “We’re going to give Tim Tszyu a different look than he’s seen before. Compared to most of the fights that everyone has seen, they’re going to see something new from me on March 26.”

Tszyu, the son of Hall of Fame fighter Kostya Tszyu, will be making his much-anticipated debut in the U.S. against Gausha, after dominating his first 20 fights in his native Australia. For the Cleveland native Gausha, his motivation comes from within and not from the hype surrounding Tszyu entering this matchup.

“I’m just motivated period,” said Gausha. “It’s got nothing to do with any hype around Tszyu. It has everything to do with where I’m at in my life and my career. Things are happening at the right time for me. I’m in a good place. This is the perfect fight for me at this point in my career.

“I appreciate him for taking this challenge. Most other fighters would try to protect their record. This shows that he believes in himself. He wants the tough fights. Itu dikatakan, I think he took the wrong fight.”

Gausha scored an impressive knockout over young contender Jamontay Clark in his last fight, stopping his opponent in round two in March 2021, and will look to build on that triumph against a bigger name in Tszyu.

“That was a good fight for me against Clark,” said Gausha. “I wanted to get right back in the ring, but sometimes it’s hard to make fights with certain guys. I have a great opportunity against Tszyu and I’m looking to capitalize and build off of my last performance. I’m going to make an even bigger splash in this fight.”

Training in Los Angeles with Manny Robles and Prenice Brewer, Gausha has received excellent sparring leading up to fight night, having shared the ring with 154-pound champion Brian Castaño, welterweight contender Vergil Ortiz and 2020 DIRI KITA. Olympian Delante Johnson. While Gausha expects Tszyu to display his typical come forward style, he plans to be ready for anything that his opponent presents.

“I expect Tim to try to bring pressure and come forward,” said Gausha. “He’s a one-trick pony. What you see is what you get. He doesn’t do too many things spectacularly, but what he does do well, he does it very well, and that’s bring the pressure. We have something ready for that and we’re going to do our thing no matter what he tries to do.”

Gausha previously challenged for the 154-pound world title in losing a 2017 decision against Erislandy Lara and also owns a decision defeat to Erickson Lubin and a draw against former champion Austin Trout. Saat Ini, Gausha will look to catapult himself right back into the title picture with a victory on March 26.

“After everyone sees this performance on March 26, they’re going to know where I fit into this division,” said Gausha. “I’ve got a job to do. Sekarang juga, I’m really just starting to show people my skills and what I can do. This is going to solidify that. I’m knocking on the door of a title fight right now. A win over Tszyu would be great for my career and get me to the world titles.”

BROOKLYN – Februari 18, 2022 - Terkalahkan rising star Chris "Primetime" Colbert held a media workout in his hometown of Brooklyn Friday, as he prepares to take on undefeated Dominican Olympian Hector Garcia in the SHOWTIME main event Saturday, Februari 26 in a Premier Boxing Champions event from The Chelsea inside The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas.

Colbert vs. Garcia tops a stacked SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING® tripleheader beginning at 10 p.m. ET / 7 p.m. PT as the undefeated fighters match up in a WBA Super Featherweight Title Eliminator.

Tiket untuk acara live, yang dipromosikan oleh TGB Promosi, are on sale now and can be purchased through Ticketmaster.com.

The 25-year-old Colbert held the workout at the NYC Cops & Kids Boxing Club where he began his boxing journey, from his decorated days in the amateur ranks, to his burgeoning pro career. Here is what Colbert had to say about training camp, his February 26 lawan dan lebih:

CHRIS COLBERT

“He’s going to learn firsthand how dangerous I am. I’m not worried about anything he brings to the ring. I love when people think that power is going to save them against me.

“I don’t have to live up to the ‘Primetime’ name, that’s just me. That’s who I am. People know who I am. I just have a job to do and I’m going to do it on February 26.

“I don’t really know anything about Garcia. I know he’s got two arms and two legs, and beyond that I expect him to bring his A-game, because he has to against me. There’s no way that I’m letting him come in as a late replacement and beat me.

“I spent most of training camp with Coach Aureliano Sosa and Herman Caicedo at Caicedo Sports down in Miami, but with the change of opponent I made the decision to come back to my gym in Brooklyn because we have three lefties in the gym up here.

“The only real difference for this camp is that I have a nutritionist now, so they’ve got me on a strict diet and I’m just more focused than ever. The other thing about this camp is that I was originally supposed to fight in mid-December, but then it got pushed back to now. So we went through two camps basically. It’s been about a 14-week camp in total.

“We went down to Miami mainly because of the weather, and because of our connection with Coach Herman. I hate the cold up north. And then they’ve also got a lot of quality sparring partners for me down in Miami and they gave me some good work to get me ready for this fight.

“I’m all about making adjustments. I’ve had opponent replacements happen before, and I know this is part of the business of boxing. I just have to roll with the punches, make lemonade out of these lemons and do what I do on February 26.

“I don’t fight for the belts. I fight for the money and my legacy. I still have a job to do next Saturday. I’m still getting paid. After I win, I get to fight again soon for the belt and get paid again for that fight.”

“I don’t consider Chris Colbert particularly dangerous.”

UNDEFEATED DOMINICAN OLYMPIAN HÉCTOR GARCÍA FACES UNBEATEN RISING STAR CHRIS COLBERT LIVE ON SHOWTIME® HARI SABTU, Februari 26 IN PREMIER BOXING CHAMPIONS EVENT FROM THE COSMOPOLITAN OF LAS VEGAS

LAS VEGAS (Februari 17, 2022) – Undefeated Dominican Olympian Héctor García will look to put himself one step closer to his championship dreams when he faces fellow unbeaten Chris "Primetime" Colbert in a 12-round WBA Super Featherweight World Title Eliminator headlining live on SHOWTIME Saturday, Februari 26 in a Premier Boxing Champions event from The Chelsea inside The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas.

“I’m very thankful to my whole team for giving me this opportunity,” said García, who owns a record of 14-0, dengan 10 KO. “It’s time to show the world that there was a Dominican fighter hidden in the shadows and he’s ready to pounce on this chance."

García stepped in to face Colbert after WBA Super Featherweight Champion Roger Gutiérrez withdrew due to a positive COVID-19 test. Despite the sudden change, the 30-year-old is prepared for what the supremely-skilled Colbert brings to the ring.

“I don’t consider Chris Colbert particularly dangerous,” said García. “I’ve watched him fight before and I know that I do have to be agile, since he is very fast. I have been sparring with many training partners that have styles similar to his here in Las Vegas and that should help me adjust once we’re in the fight.”

Trained by renowned coach Ismael Salas in Las Vegas, García has sparred with champions and top contenders including Devin Haney and Rolando “Rolly” Romero. He enters this fight coming off the most impressive victory of his career, a unanimous decision triumph over Isaac Avelar in December 2021.

“I make sure I stay in shape even if I’m not training for a specific date or opponent,” said García. “I heard about this opportunity when I got back to Las Vegas from the Dominican Republic, and I just knew I had to grab the bull by the horns. I am making sure that I make the most of this by having the best possible preparation.”

The San Juan de la Maguana, Dominican Republic product knows this is his chance to go from underdog to world championship contender, and plans to show off his versatility and power in the biggest fight of his career to date.

“People will witness my potential on February 26,” said García. “They are also going to find out that I can brawl or be tactical from any kind of distance. If I had to define myself as a boxer in one word, that would be ‘versatile’. My power is a weapon because I can hurt you with anything and everything that I throw.”

García is an avid Boston Red Sox fan who used to play baseball and dream of hitting home runs at Fenway Park while admiring Dominican baseball legends such as Pedro Martínez, David Ortíz and Manny Ramírez. His family wanted him to study, but it was his stepbrother who turned him to boxing when García was a teenager.

“Baseball was my first love, but my older stepbrother Derlin Valdez used to box and he would encourage me to do the same,” said García. “He kept telling me to go to the gym and, when I was 14, I decided to heed his advice and dedicate myself to boxing. I didn’t really want to at first, but I also didn’t have the resources I needed to be a true professional baseball prospect.”

García turned pro in December of 2016 after a runner-up finish at the 2015 Pan-Am Games in Toronto and qualifying for the 2016 Olimpiade di Rio de Janeiro.

“I waited for the (2016) Olympics before turning pro,” said García. “My dream was to win a medal, and I didn’t get to because of an unfair loss during the preliminary rounds.”

Six years later, boxing is still a family matter in the García household. That is what drives him to succeed.

“My goal is to be a world champion, and I’m dedicated to showing my family that I am indeed able to be successful as an athlete,” said García. “They wanted me to study, study, study and study some more, but I’m showing them that I achieved my goal.”

LAS VEGAS (Februari 5, 2022) -Former unified welterweight world championKeith “One Time” Thurmankembali.
 
Thurman proved he is still an elite welterweight, winning a 12-round unanimous decision over former super lightweight world championMario “El Azteca” Barrios in the main event of a FOX Sports PBC Pay-Per-View event Saturday night from Michelob ULTRA Arena at Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino in Las Vegas.


“This was a comeback fight after two and a half years away,” said Clearwater, Florida’s Thurman. “I wish I had my best performance, but I did the best I could under the circumstances. “I grade this performance a C+ or B- for myself.”
 
In his first fight in over 30 bulan, the 33-year-old Thurman (30-1, 22 Biaya) displayed the attributes that led him to the top of the 147-pound division. Thurman got off to a strong start and never relinquished control, at times punishing Barrios with hard shots.
 
Lingkungan (26-2, 17 Biaya) had his moments in his welterweight debut, particularly in the eighth when a left hook to the body caused Thurman to back up. The 26-year-old slugger from San Antonio, Texas also showed grit, gamely fighting back despite Thurman’s heavy artillery.
 
Tonight I showed the Mexican warrior in me. I take my hat off to Keith Thurman, he’s a warrior as well. We gave the fans a great fight,” said Barrios.


Namun, it wasn’t enough to overcome what was a fine performance from the relentless Thurman.
 
“We rocked him. We weren’t able to put him down and out, but we had a great performance and a great fight,” said Thurman.
 
“I want the belts. I want the champions. I want to be back on top, so whoever is willing to send Keith Thurman the contract, let’s go!"
 
In the super featherweight co-main event, Juara dunia empat divisiLeo “El Terremoto” Santa Cruz delivered another vintage performance, overcoming adversity to win a wide 10-round unanimous decision overKeenan “Bedo” Carbajal.
 
“I went good rounds. If I had gone in there and finished him fast, I wouldn’t have gotten the experience I needed,” said the 33-year-old Santa Cruz. “I felt the long layoff a little bit, but I did my best and hopefully the fans loved it and want to see me again.”


Santa Cruz (38-2-1, 19 Biaya) suffered a cut underneath his left eye and one along his right eyelid both from accidental headbutts.
 
Undaunted, “El Terremoto” dominated the action, hurting Carbajal (23-3-1, 15 Biaya) several times on his way to winning every round on all three scorecards (100-90).
 
“We’re going to go back to the gym, get better and work on what we did wrong,” Santa Cruz said. “We want to unify and defend our title. We want all the champions at 126 pound. "
 
Pay-per-view action also saw rising super welterweight sensationJesus “Mono” Ramos (18-0, 15 Biaya) deliver a spectacular performance in the biggest fight of his career. The 20-year-old Ramos remained undefeated by knocking out dangerous veteranVladimir Hernandez (13-5, 6 Biaya) di 2:21 of the sixth round.
 
“I was boxing him smartly and I wasn’t really looking for the knockout,” said Ramos. “He’s a tough, durable guy. I broke him down round by round, landing a clean shot that hurt him, so I got the job done.
 
The end came swiftly in the sixth when a Ramos overhand left caused Hernandez to lose control of his legs. Ramos proceeded to batter him to the head and body until referee Mike Ortega mercifully stepped in.
 
“We want to build our resume, like Floyd Mayweather did,” said Ramos. “He had Gatti, Corrales, Castillo and all the guys. That’s something you can’t take away from him and that’s what I want to do. I want to earn my reputation. I’m not here to have Instagram followers. I’m here to make a statement in boxing.”
 
In the pay-per-view opener, former two-division world championLuis “Pantera” Nery turunCarlos Castro in the first round on his way to a 10-round split decision win in a tactical battle between super bantamweights.
 
“My experience was definitely a factor,”Kata Nery. “I have three world title fights under my belt and have faced tougher opponents than he has. It showed tonight.”
 
The action heated up in the first when southpaw Nery connected with a straight left that deposited Castro on the seat of his trunks. The Phoenix, Arizona native managed to rise and survive the frame.
 
The bout turned into a chess match in the middle rounds as both Castro (27-1, 12 Biaya) and Mexico’s Nery (32-1, 24 Biaya) had their moments. Pada akhirnya, Nery’s defense and accuracy proved to be the difference as he won 96-93 dan 95-94 on two cards, while a third judge scored it for Castro, 95-94.
 
“I wanted to show everyone that I’m not just about haymakers,”Kata Nery. “If I wanna brawl and be tactical, I can do that too.
 
“I knew I could knock him out, but I wanted to win proving I could box too. I would counter-punch and attack the way I wanted to.”
 
Sebelum bayar-per-tayang, the PBC on FOX main event sawLuke Santamaria (13-2-1, 7 Biaya) overcome a stiff challenge fromAbel Ramos (27-5-2, 21 Biaya) to win a 10-round unanimous decision in their welterweight encounter. Following a slow start, Santamaria found his footing, often switching from orthodox to southpaw and having success from both stances. Ramos was game throughout, but all three judges saw Santamaria winning clearly by scores of 98-92, 96-94 dan 96-94.
 
Dalam acara pendukung utama di FOX, super lightweight contenderOmar “El Relámpago” Juárez (13-1, 5 Biaya) won a hard-fought 10-round split decision over Ryan “Cowboy” Karl. Juarez controlled the early action, surviving a mid-fight surge from Karl (19-4, 12 Biaya) to walk away with the victory. One judge scored the action 95-94 for Karl while the other two judges had Juarez winning by scores of 96-93 dan 95-94.

LOS ANGELES (Bulan Desember 5, 2021) –Superstar tinju dan juara dunia lima kali Gervonta “Tank” Davis tunjukkan keterampilan tinjunya, memenangkan keputusan bulat 12 ronde yang meriah atas yang tanpa henti Isaac "Pitbull" Cruz untuk mempertahankan Gelar Juara Dunia Ringan WBA-nya di depan para pemain bertabur bintang, terjual habis 15,850 di STAPLES Center langsung di SHOWTIME Bayar-Per-Tampilan, dalam acara yang dipersembahkan oleh Premier Boxing Champions.

Scorecard baca 116-112 dan dua skor 115-113, semua untuk Davis.

Suasana di arena adalah listrik, dengan sejumlah bintang NBA saat ini dan mantan yang hadir, termasuk Earvin “Magic” Johnson, Kawhi Leonard, Dwight Howard, Kenny Smith, Kevin Garnett dan Paul Pierce antara lain.

Didampingi oleh rapper superstar Lil Durk, Davis memasuki ring dengan warna ungu dan emas Laker; jumbai di sepanjang kopernya dengan nomor mendiang Kobe Bryant "8" dan "24" di setiap sisinya. Cruz merayakan warisan Meksikonya dengan band mariachi di belakangnya saat dia melangkah menuju ring.

Tidak ada proses perasaan keluar pada awalnya. Cruz menyerang sang juara bertahan, menjepitnya ke tali dan meratap.

“Itu gayaku. 'Pitbull' akan selalu menyerang,"Kata Cruz. “Saya pikir kami mempertahankan ritme dari awal hingga akhir.”

Davis menemukan ritmenya di set kedua dan ketiga, mengitari ring dan membawa Cruz ke tembakan. Di keempat, Cruz memusatkan serangannya pada tubuh, menumbuk tulang rusuk Davis.

Penduduk asli Baltimore berusia 27 tahun itu menyalakan listrik di kuarter keempat, bergantian antara hook kanan dan umpan silang kiri di belakang kuda-kuda kidalnya. Pukulan yang lebih menghukum datang dari Davis selama yang kelima.

“Dia petarung yang lebih pendek, jadi saya lempar ke atas kepalanya,"Kata Davis. “Aku memukulnya dengan buku jariku dan mengacaukannya. Aku menyakiti tanganku pada ronde keenam. Tidak peduli apakah lawannya lebih tinggi atau lebih pendek, Aku harus melewatinya. Dia seorang pejuang. Meskipun dia tidak menang, seorang bintang lahir malam ini.”

“Saat itu sekitar ronde kelima saya melihat tangannya tidak bekerja dengan benar,Cruz mengamati.

Davis bertinju dengan indah di ronde tengah, menembakkan tembakan cepat dan berputar menjauh dari tembakan balasan. Pukulan kanan di pukulan kedelapan secara singkat membuat Cruz berdengung dan membuat penonton berdiri. Tapi tepat ketika itu tampak seolah-olah pertarungan itu menghilang, Cruz melawan api dengan api, mendaratkan pukulan flush beberapa detik sebelum bel.

Petenis Meksiko berusia 23 tahun itu meningkatkan kecepatannya di ronde-ronde terakhir, menjaga Davis tetap waspada dan berdebar-debar. Davis memegang miliknya sendiri, melawan balik secara seimbang sampai pertarungan berakhir.

Tentu saja, Cruz percaya dia pantas menang.

"Hidup Mexico. Saya tidak punya apa-apa untuk dikatakan, para penggemar berbicara tentang siapa yang memenangkan pertarungan ini,"Dia berkata.

Setelah sukses mempertahankan gelar, Davis mengatakan dia siap untuk semua pendatang.

"LA., kami melakukannya untuk Kobe,"Kata Davis. “Di awal pertarungan, dia datang dengan kuat. Saya merasa saat pertarungan sedang berlangsung, dia sedang mogok. Tapi tanganku terluka, jadi saya tidak bisa mengeluarkannya dari sana.

“Kesempatan apa pun yang terbaik untukku, Aku akan melakukannya. Semuanya adalah pekerjaan mudah. Saya anjing teratas. ”

Dalam acara co-main, Sebastian "Menjulang Inferno" Fundora bergerak lebih dekat ke perebutan gelar dunia dengan keputusan bulat 12 ronde atas yang sebelumnya tak terkalahkan Sergio Garcia dalam Eliminator Gelar Kelas Welter Super WBC.

Skor akhir dibaca 118-110, 117-111 dan 115-113.

Fundora membentuk kontrol dengan cepat di awal, mematahkan kepala Garcia dari Spanyol dengan pukulan kiri yang menggelegar. Keduanya berdagang secara merata melalui putaran awal. Garcia memiliki momennya, termasuk pukulan overhand yang tajam pada pukulan kelima yang mengeluarkan darah dari hidung Fundora.

Fundora yang berusia 23 tahun menemukan jangkauannya di urutan keenam, memompa jab dan menggunakan bingkai 6-kaki-5 dan jangkauan 80-inci untuk menjaga Garcia di teluk.

“Aku lebih sering menggunakan jarak. Saya ingin menampilkan sesuatu yang berbeda dari biasanya,Kata Fundora. “Tinggi jelas merupakan perbedaan dalam pertarungan ini.”

Garcia berjuang untuk mendarat di babak kedua pertarungan, simpan untuk beberapa saat di 12th ketika kedua kombatan berdiri kaki-ke-kaki.

“Mungkin segalanya bisa berbeda jika saya lebih agresif dari awal,Kata Garcia. "Aku seharusnya tidak membiarkan diriku terbawa oleh apa yang dia lakukan."

Fundora yakin dia siap untuk perebutan gelar dunia.

“Kami baru saja mengalahkan No. 2 di WBC, jadi kita punya No.1, dan kami memiliki juara,Kata Fundora. “Siapa pun yang mereka berikan selanjutnya, kami siap.”

Dalam mendebarkan bolak-balik, Carlos Adames (21-1, 16 Biaya) mengatasi tantangan berat dari mantan penantang gelar dunia Sergiy Derevyanchenko (13-4, 10 Biaya) untuk memenangkan keputusan mayoritas 10 ronde dalam Eliminator Gelar Dunia Kelas Menengah WBC mereka.

Kedua kombatan memiliki momen mereka, tapi menghadapi lawan terberat dalam karirnya, Adames yang berusia 27 tahun bersinar. Seorang juri menilai pertarungan kelas menengah bahkan pada 95-95, sementara dua lainnya mencetak gol untuk Adames dengan skor 96-94 dan 97-93.

“Ini sangat berarti bagi saya dalam karir saya dan ini adalah pencapaian besar menang melawan petinju sekalibernya,” kata Adames, yang lahir di Republik Dominika dan bertarung di Washington Heights di New York City.

“Saya agresif dan cepat secara alami, jadi saya datang siap untuk melakukan pekerjaan saya. Dia mulai lambat, ingin melihat apa yang akan terjadi, dan hanya memiliki rencana permainan yang salah. Dia sedikit lelah saat pertarungan berlangsung, mengambil banyak pukulan keras dari saya dan terbukti bahwa saya menyebabkan banyak kerusakan padanya.”

“Saya berharap lawan saya bertarung dengan gaya yang sama. Itu tidak ada yang istimewa bagi saya, hanya pertarungan kualitas,"Kata Derevyanchenko.

“Dia tetap kidal, itulah perbedaan dalam pertarungan. Saya tidak tahu apa yang akan saya lakukan selanjutnya. Saya perlu sedikit istirahat dan kemudian saya akan kembali ke gym karena saya suka tinju dan saya suka pertunjukannya.”

“Ini memberi saya kesempatan untuk melanjutkan,” kata Adames. “Saya mendominasi di keduanya 154 dan 160, jadi di mana pun mereka memberi saya kesempatan untuk memperjuangkan kejuaraan, di situlah saya akan pergi.”

Dalam pertarungan pembukaan siaran SHOWTIME PPV, penantang kelas bulu super Eduardo "Kiri" Ramirez (26-2-3, 12 Biaya) berada dalam bentuk puncak, memenangkan keputusan bulat 10 ronde yang lebar atas mantan penantang gelar dunia Miguel Marriaga.

“Saya ingin mengucapkan terima kasih kepada para penggemar, SHOWTIME dan keluarga Montiel yang telah mendukung saya. Marriaga adalah lawan yang tangguh, tapi aku berhasil mendominasi,” kata Ramirez. “Saya memiliki gaya bertarung yang bervariasi dan membuatnya tetap waspada sepanjang waktu.”

Marriaga (30-5, 26 Biaya) adalah agresor di seluruh, khususnya di ronde pertama saat ia mendukung Ramirez dengan pukulan kombinasi. Yang terakhir menemukan jangkauannya di tengah bingkai, memanfaatkan jab yang akurat. Dalam ketiga, sebuah hook kanan diikuti oleh sebuah pukulan overhand kiri membuat Marriaga tidak seimbang untuk sebuah pukulan knockdown.
“Kami memulai dengan kuat, tapi kemudian segalanya menjadi semakin sulit. Setelah mengatakan itu, kami senang dengan pekerjaan yang kami lakukan hari ini,” kata Marriaga. “Kita seharusnya lebih cerdas, tetapi kami berusaha sekuat tenaga dalam menghadapi peluang besar yang sayangnya tidak dapat kami manfaatkan.”

Ramirez mendominasi setelah mencetak knockdown, menghukum Marriaga sejak saat itu dengan berbagai macam tembakan ke kepala dan tubuh. Statistik pukulan terakhir membuat Ramirez mendarat 280 dari 762 (36.7%) pukulan total untuk Marriaga 159 dari 689 (21.3%).

“Sekarang saya akan bersantai dengan keluarga saya dan menikmati liburan,” kata Ramirez. “Kalau begitu semoga 2022 akan datang dengan tembakan judul untuk saya.”
