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 Kos) 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,” said Matias. “I don’t think I’ve woken up from this dream. Maybe I can tell you how it feels tomorrow, ampak zdaj, 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 Kos) came out extremely aggressive and looked to swarm Matias early as he threw 96 punches in round one, out landing Matias 28 da 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, pristanek 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,” said 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.”

Po boju, 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,” said 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.”

V so-glavni dogodek, Minneapolis-native and welterweight contenderJamal “Shango” James(28-2, 12 Kos) 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 Kos).

“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 da 111, vključno z možnostjo 153 da 102 edge in power punches.

James was also able to use a sharp body attack to keep Palmetta at bay, pristanek 68 throughout the fight, v primerjavi s samo 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 in 98-92 dvakrat.

“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.”

In the telecast opener, super lightweight contenderElvis Rodriguez(14-1-1,12 Kos) overcame a slow start to earn a hard-fought majority decision over the hard-hittingJoseph Adorno(17-2-2, 14 Kos) po 10 krogi.

“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 round, landing 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 da 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 in 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.”

Prior to the telecast, the SHOWTIME BOXING COUNTDOWN show streamed live on theSHOWTIME SPORTS YouTube channel inSHOWTIME Boks Facebook stran and was topped by a welterweight matchup that saw Minneapolis-nativeVe’Shawn Owens(14-3, 12 Kos) rezultat soglasno odločitev nadKudratillo Abdukakhorov(18-2, 10 Kos) after 10-rounds.

»Eden največjih dogodkov v letu bo vključeval zaslužno postavo podkartov s plačilom na ogled, polno posledičnih dvobojev, ki so pripravljeni na dramo in akcijo,« je rekel Tom Brown, Predsednik TGB Promocije. “Isaac Cruz je proti Gervonti Davisu pokazal, da je zvezda v nastajanju, in poskušal bo te talente še enkrat pokazati proti izkušenemu nasprotniku v Yuriorkis Gamboa.

23-letni Cruz (22-2-1, 15 Kos) se bo vrnil v ring po padcu tekmovalne odločitve proti triligaškemu prvaku Gervonti Davisu na SHOWTIME PPV decembra. Po rodu iz Mexico Cityja, Cruz se je dvignil na lestvici lahke kategorije 2020, oktobra napovedal svojo prisotnost z naelektrenim nokavtom v prvem krogu nad veteranom Diegom Magdalenom. Cruz je temu sledil 2021 tako, da je marca soglasno zmagal nad prej neporaženim Matíasom Romerom in junija premagal nekdanjega prvaka Francisca Vargasa.. Potem ko je svoje U.S. decembra debitiral 2019, Cruz je v naslednjih štirih dvobojih ostal neporažen, pojavlja se na SHOWTIME^® trikrat poleg tega, da je premagal Magdaleno na dvoboju Davis vs. Leo Santa Cruz SHOWTIME PPV undercard.

Moj promotor, Manny Pacquiao, se je boril pri AT&T Stadium prej in zmagal obakrat. Vesel sem, da bom šel po njegovih stopinjah proti zelo uspešnemu nekdanjemu prvaku v Gamboi. Prihajam, da pokažem navijačem, zakaj sem eden najboljših lahkih igralcev na svetu, in da Gamboa odpeljem v pokoj 16. aprila."

Gamboa (30-4, 18 Kos) je nekdanji enotni prvak v peresni kategoriji, med 126 funtov naslova IBF in WBA 2009 in 2011. Rojen v Guantanamu, Cuba, zdaj živi in trenira v Miamiju, Fla. Odpustil je obračun proti Terenceu Crawfordu v a 2014 Boj leta, preden je odskočil in zmagal v sedmih od osmih bojev. Ta tek je vključeval zmage nad nekdanjima svetovnima prvakoma Jasonom Soso in Romanom Martinezom, vrnitev Gamboe v boj za naslov svetovnega prvaka. V zadnjih dveh dvobojih, Gamboa je opustil tekmovanja proti trenutnim svetovnim prvakom v lahki kategoriji, izguba preko 12^th-round TKO do Gervonte Davisa 2019 in z odločbo proti Devinu Haneyju novembra 2020.

»Vedno pridem v ring, da pokažem svoje talente in April 16 bo nič drugače,« je rekel Gamboa. »Zelo motivirajoče je soočiti se z mladimi, močan nasprotnik, kot je Isaac Cruz. Preizkusila ga bom in videla, ali se lahko upre moji moči. Prihajam zmagat in dam veliko izjavo, da še vedno imam vse, kar je potrebno, da ponovno postanem prvak."

22-letna Valenzuela (11-0, 7 Kos) zdaj trenira kot hlevski kolega nepremaganega dvakratnega svetovnega prvaka Davida Benavideza, ko se želi premakniti od potencialnega kandidata do tekmeca v 2022. Rojen v Los Mochisu, Sinaloa, Mexico, Valenzuela se je prelevila v profesionalca 2018 in opravil pet dvobojev z izločilnimi tekmi, preden si je septembra prislužil svojo prvo odločitev v 10 rundah v zmagi nad Deinerjem Berriom 2021. Valenzuela je dosegel svoj izboj 2021 v decembru, prevladuje nad Austinom Dulayem na poti do tehničnega noka v četrtem krogu.

»Uresničitev sanj je biti na visokih vložkih, zložena kartica, kot je ta,« je rekla Valenzuela. »Spensa sem občudoval in študiral že dolgo, predvsem zato, ker sva oba levičarja. Komaj čakam, da pridem v ring. Francisca Vargasa nikakor ne spregledam ali podcenjujem. pričakujem ognjemet. Vedno prideš do velikega pretepa, ko se pomerita dva mehiška bojevnika, tako da vem, da bodo oboževalci navdušeni nad tem, kar bodo videli 16. aprila."

Boj iz Mexico Cityja, Vargas (27-3-2, 19 Kos) osvojil naslov 130 funtov 2015 tako, da je v eni najboljših bojev leta premagal Takashija Miuro. 37-letnik bi se še naprej boril proti Orlandu Salidu do akcijskega žreba, preden bi v drugi nepozabni aferi izgubil naslov proti Miguelu Bercheltu.. Vargas je kasneje premagal Stephena Smitha in Roda Salko, preden je izgubil v repasažu z Bercheltom 2019. Najbolj nedavno, Vargas je začel kampanjo v lahki kategoriji, dosegel zaporedne zmage nad Ezequielom Avilesom 2019 in Otto Gamez v 2020, preden je odstopil od odločitve proti Isaacu Cruzu v svojem zadnjem boju junija 2021.

"V čast mi je biti na tako veliki karti s toliko odličnimi borci,« je rekel Vargas. "Prišel bom pripravljen na ta boj in pripravljen zapustiti ring z zmago. Vem, da bo Valenzuela poskušala dati izjavo, vendar prihajam, da storim isto. Kot vedno, Navijači lahko pričakujejo izjemen boj od začetka do konca."

Zastopa svoj rodni Ontario, Canada, Crowley (20-0, 9 Kos) se vrača v ring po senzacionalnem debiju v SHOWTIME decembra 2021 da je premagal prej neporaženega Kudratillo Abdukakhorov s soglasno odločitvijo. Crowley je pred tem septembra premagal Josha Torresa 2020 po a 2019 tek, v katerem je februarja z odločitvijo v 12 krogih proti Stuartu McLellanu osvojil kanadski naslov v supervelterski kategoriji, nato pa je oktobra uspešno ubranil naslov s prevladujočo odločitvijo nad Mianom Hussainom.. 28-letnik se je vrnil v boj v ZDA. za njegova zadnja dva dvoboja po sedmih od njegovih prvih osmih profesionalnih bojev v ZDA.

»Po moji decembrski zmagi na SHOWTIME, Pripravljen sem sprejeti naslednji izziv na svoji poti, da postanem svetovni prvak v velterski kategoriji,« je rekel Crowley. »Josesito Lopez je vedno močan in na mizo prinaša razburljiv slog. Žal za njega, bo odkril kaj 20 borci pred njim so se naučili, kar je, da me ne bodo ustavili pri doseganju svoje usode. Rad bi se zahvalil svoji ekipi za to priložnost, da pokažem svoje sposobnosti, srčnost in neizprosnost na tej odlični karti v domu Dallas Cowboys.«

Lopez (38-8, 21 Kos) si je prislužil vzdevek "The Riverside Rocky" zaradi svojega stila neuspeha v ringu. Stopil je nasproti nekaterih najboljših boksarjev v športu, vključno s prvakom Canelom Alvarezom, Marcos Maidana, Andre Berto in Victor Ortiz. 37-letnik iz Riversidea, Kalifornija je vedno težka v ringu, kot je razvidno iz njegovega poraza z odločitvijo s tesno večino proti takratnemu prvaku Keithu Thurmanu v 2019. Od te izgube, Lopez je združil zaporedne zmage, premagal Johna Molina, Jr. in Francisco Santana.

"Nestrpen in zelo motiviran sem, da se vrnem v ring in se izkažem kot eden najboljših borcev na svetu,"Je dejal Lopez. "Pričakujem trd izziv od Crowleyja in navijači lahko pričakujejo, da me bodo videli v najboljših močeh. Sem v odlični formi in pripravljena dati vse na kocko. Vsekakor se boste želeli prepričati, da ne boste zamudili mojega boja 16. aprila."
