Испод је оно што су борци су имали да кажу:

Цларесса Шилдс:

“I made history in the amateurs, so it’s very special to me to be making history in the pros too and also doing it so close to home in Detroit.

“For this fight, I did more road work and also worked hard on my fundamentals. With my coach, Jason Crutchfield, in my corner he knows my weaknesses and strong points, so we are strengthening all weaknesses.

“I know that Szabados has a lot of body endurance and a ‘no quit’ mindset in the ring. She has a lot more professional experience than me and is a huge step up for me, as it is only my second professional fight.

“With my reputation and name steady rising and me getting a lot of notoriety, I have really just been handling it by taking a few deep breaths and just not allowing myself to get too excited. When I think about Март 10, I just wanna jump up and down!

“When I was an amateur, I followed women’s professional boxing the best I could. I thought a lot of women weren’t given equal opportunity. I told myself that for women’s boxing to grow, I’d have to go pro after winning the Olympics again. I felt in my heart that I would be respected and given a chance. I take advantage of every opportunity, so as of now, I feel women’s boxing is a sport that is going to be around for a long time.”

Николај Потапов:

“Nieves is good fighter, and he’s ranked in the top 10. I want to fight the best available in my division. A win over Nieves would be huge for my career and would hopefully lead to a shot at a title in the near future. I can’t lose on Март 10.

“I trained hard to go the distance of 10 метака, but Kronk’s philosophy is not to leave it in the hands of the judges.

“I am thankful to Showtime and Salita Promotions for giving me another opportunity to fight on such a prestigious network. I am focused on bringing home the victory after spending time in Detroit training at the legendary Kronk Gym. "

“Detroit City Gold” will mark the first time in history a women’s boxing match has headlined on premium television. Shields and Szabados will also be the first women’s fight on СхоБок, a series that has sparked the careers of 67 future world champions.
Антонио Ниевес вс. Николај Потапов – 10-Round Bantamweight Bout
The co-main event will feature a 10-round battle between top-10 ranked bantamweight contenders Антонио Ниевес (17-0-2, 9 КОс) и Николај Потапов (16-0-1, 8 КОс). Nieves is ranked No. 4 у ВБО, while Potapov is ranked No. 9 по ВБО, До Нот. 10 by WBA and No. 13 по ИБФ.
Nieves, a top amateur, was a five-time Cleveland Metro Golden Gloves Champion. У 2011, he was the National Golden Gloves runner-up and U.S. Nationals Bronze Medalist at 123 фунти.
А про од новембра 2011, he won the initial 12 fights of his career before boxing to an eight-round draw with Степхон Млади он Јуне 20, 2015. The NABO bantamweight champion, he has gone 6-0-1 since and is coming off a second-round TKO over Szilvester Ajtai последњи Нов. 26. У августу 2016, he fought to a 10-round split draw against Mexico’s Alejandro Santiago о СхоБок.
Because they are both residents of Ohio, Nieves has long clamored for a showdown with former WBA Champion and fellow 118-lb contender Rau’shee Warren. A victory over Potapov may put him in the right position to have his wish granted later this year.
“I feel great about this opportunity and I’m going to take advantage of it,” said Nieves. “Он је добар борац. He comes forward and throws a lot of punches. He’s got a solid foundation. I believe it’ll be a good fight but, уопште, I’ll be able to outbox him. I can make him make mistakes and take advantage of it. Ја ћу бити 100 percent ready to show everybody the real Antonio Nieves. I’ll use my legs more and throw a lot of combinations. I will box my way to my big shot.”
The 26-year-old Potapov was an outstanding amateur with international success. The 5-foot-4 native of Russia had around 200 fights before he turned pro in March 2010. Отишао 13-0 as a pro in Russia before his U.S. деби.
Potapov had a 14-fight winning streak ended when he boxed still-undefeated prospect Степхон Млади (13-0 иде у) to a 10-round majority draw on April 15, 2016, о СхоБок. Потапов, who felt he had done more than enough to earn a victory, entered the ring ranked 10тх у ИБФ, rare for a fighter at that point in his career.
Since the disappointing result against Young, Potapov has fought twice, leaving nothing in the hands of the judges by winning both by early round knockout. He’s coming off a fourth-round TKO over Alexander Saltykov last Нов. 15.
“I have been training in Russia and am excited to be in Detroit (since Feb. 1) training at the Kronk Gym with world-class trainer Javan SugarHill Steward,” Potapov said. “Antonio Nieves is a very talented fighter and I look forward to a great exciting fight of skill and will on Март 10.”
Wesley Tucker vs. Ed Williams – Eight Round Welterweight Bout
Такође, на СхоБок: Нова генерација will be an eight-round welterweight battle between local prospects with much to prove, Wesley Tucker (13-0, 8 КОс) и Ed Williams (12-1-1, 4 КОс).
The 29-year-old Tucker, Толедо, Охајо, was a standout amateur. Он је био 2012 National Golden Gloves runner-up at 152 pounds and had over 250 аматеур туче. Као професионалац, he’s stayed relatively active since his debut in February 2013, but the 5-foot-8 southpaw has been virtually untested. Tucker will be looking to score his first significant professional victory against Williams.
“И феел гоод. Excited about the opportunity,” said Tucker. “He’s a tough fighter from Detroit. But I’m better. I’ve seen every kind of style there is. You can expect fireworks that night. Ја сам 100 percent ready.”
Detroit’s Ed Williams is coming off a unanimous decision victory over then 6-1 Цхристон Едвардс, last July at the MGM in Las Vegas. The 27-year-old suffered his lone career loss in November 2015 via unanimous decision to Marcus Beckford in Beckford’s home state of Louisiana. Као аматер, Williams was a two-time Michigan State Champion and a two-time Detroit Golden Gloves Champion.
“I feel like this is a great opportunity to fight at home and on TV,” рекао је Вилијамс. “It’s the first fight at the MGM, first women’s bout to headline. There’s a lot of firsts going on that night and it’s a big stage, but I’m not afraid of anything. I don’t know much about Tucker other than he’s from Oho and he’s shorter than me. I’m just going to prepare for everything. One thing about me — I’m a gladiator. If he doesn’t show up to go to war, I will get him out of there. Обука ће одлично. I’m in Houston for this camp. I’m working on a lot of things and getting sharper and staying busy.”
James Gordon Smith vs. Joshua Greer, Јр. – Eight Round Bantamweight Bout
Opening the telecast will be an eight-round bantamweight “Detroit vs. Цхицаго” окршај између James Smith (11-0, 6 КОс) и Joshua Greer, Јр. (11-1-1, 4 КОс).
The 26-year-old Smith was a standout amateur, одлазак 110-9 en route to a bronze medal at the National Golden Gloves. He holds an amateur win over current top-10 bantamweight Antonio Nieves.
Ковач, a 5-foot-4, is making his ninth start in Michigan, his seventh in Detroit and first at MGM Grand.

“This is a great opportunity to better my career and keep moving it into the right place,” рекао је Смит. “A victory would get me ranked and keep me moving up the ladder. Plus the world will get to see me for the first time. I want to put on a good show, no matter how it goes. I just want it to be a competitive and exciting fight.”
Greer, a 22-year-old Chicago native, was a Chicago Golden Gloves Champion. He will be coming down in weight to face Smith, having normally campaigned around 120 фунти. He was last seen stopping Cristian Renteria in the fifth round in October of last year. Before that he took the undefeated record of the Dominican Republic’s Juan Gabriel Medina (онда 10-0, 9 КОс) via unanimous six-round decision.
Greer suffered the lone loss of his career in the fifth fight of his career, a majority four-round decision against fellow unbeaten Стивен Фултон у децембру 2015.
“I feel really good about this. I’m ready and can’t wait for it to happen,” said Greer. “I don’t know much about James Smith, but I know we fought the same opponent, Antwan Robertson, and he got dropped by him. And I stopped him within 24 секунди првог кола. Обука ће одлично. I have the best sparring you can ask for, guys like Адријан Гранадос, Еди Рамирез, Хенк Ланди. I will be well prepared for this fight. If it was сутра, I’d be ready.”

Detroit is America’s greatest comeback city and I am thrilled that she has chosen MGM Grand Detroit as the site to fight for her first professional title on Март 10.

СхоБок стручњак аналитичар Стеве Фархоод: “Women’s boxing in America has its best chance of revival because of the emergence of Claressa Shields. Women’s boxing is pretty big in certain countries, but it really hasn’t been a factor in the United States since Лаила Али и, before her, Christy Martin. Being the only U.S. boxer to win two gold medals, Claressa has instant credibility and star appeal and those two things are going to lead to wide exposure.
“She has a great back story, she’s an exciting fighter to watch and she’s instantly likeable.”
Simply put, Shields found solace in boxing to overcome seemingly insurmountable challenges in her childhood. She’s become a vocal advocate for many social causes, including the ongoing water crisis in her hometown of Flint, women’s rights, and campaigning against sexual assault. An inspirational figure and motivational speaker, Shields represents a beacon of hope for a working-class city that struggles with violence, poverty, and everyday essentials.
In taking on a former world title challenger and fighting for the NABF middleweight championship in only her second fight, Shields continues to make immediate strides as a professional like fellow Flint native Floyd Mayweather, who won his first world title when he was 21.
Szabados challenged for a world title in July 2015 in her ninth professional fight, losing a decision to undefeated WBC Super Middleweight Champion Nikki Adler у Немачкој. The native of Miskolc, Hungary has faced two former world champions, Mikaela Lauren и Noni Tenge, and has won via knockout in three of her last five victories.

Sensational Welterweight War Headlines Special Sunday Edition of Detroit Brawl on January 22, at Masonic Temple in Detroit

Оставите коментар
Already building a reputation for putting on Detroit’s best boxing shows, promoter Dmitriy Salita and Salita Promotions have done it again by featuring a potentially explosive war in their next show.
In a special Sunday edition of their popular “Detroit Brawl” series on Јануар 22, 2017, Detroit fan favorite and world-class spoiler Lanardo “Pain Server” Tyner (30-10-2, 19 КОс) will return to action to face undefeated Toledo, Охајо, hotshot Wesley “Casanova” Tucker (13-0, 8 КОс) in the eight-round main event.

Known for his powerful fists and granite chin, Lanardo Tyner is a former USBO and USNBC Welterweight Champion and one of boxing’s most dangerous gate keepers. Tyner has never been stopped in his career, despite facing a long list of future champions and top contenders including Canelo Alvarez, Ламонт Петерсон, Џеси Варгас, and Antonio DeMarco – and given them all tough fights. Tyner holds victories over former world champion Vivian Harris and a then 17-0-1 Charles Hatley. He also stopped then 21-3-1 Tyrese Hendrix and fought to a draw with top contender Adrian Granados.
“I know he’s a good fighter and a cool guy. I sparred him one time. He’s strong and aggressive. Exactly what I like,” said Tyner. “I’m going to try and make it a war. Hopefully he’s down for it. We both like to fight like that – whoever backs up, that’s who is going to lose. I doubt I will lose.”
Tyner says he can’t wait to see all his fans at the fight and looks forward to seeing where he stands in the division by testing himself against another undefeated would-be contender.
“I love to fight in Detroit. I really don’t fight here too often now, so I’m looking forward to fighting in front of all my people and I know he’s bringing a lot of people too, so it’s going to be a great fight. Beating him would mean that I’m still relevant and can still mess up these young punks. He’s stepping up against me. За мене, I’m just making sure I still have it.”
Undefeated southpaw Wesley Tucker had over 250 amateur bouts and won several championships including the Toledo Golden Gloves, Сребрне рукавице, and Junior Olympics multiple times. A skilled counter puncher with above average power, Tucker has, до сада, shown strong ring generalship and a veteran’s confidence, in-ring. Passing the test against Tyner will be a strong indicator he belongs in the discussion of world-class up-and-coming welterweights.
“I know he never gets knocked out and he’s a big puncher, but I am too,” said Tucker. “I was impressed with him. He hit me with a good body shot when we sparred. I’m going to mix it up with him. It’ll be explosive. I love fighting in Detroit because it’s 45 minutes from my hometown. I will have more people there this time than came to my last one and I had over 50 at the last one.”
Promoter Salita says he’s looking forward to putting on this fight for the fans in his adopted city of Detroit.
“This will be a war,” рекао је. “Neither of these guys ever back up and they can both hit very hard. It’s going to be a great test for Wesley Tucker because only the very best can beat Lanardo Tyner. Fights like this are what I pictured when I started the Detroit Brawl series. This is a TV-worthy fight that either fighter could win. I’m very proud to be part of this great event.”
More fights, opponents and rounds will be announced shortly. На фигхт нигхт, Врата се отварају у 4:00 ам and the fights begin at 5:00 ам.

Three of Detroit’s Best Prospects Will Appear on Salita Promotions’ ‘Detroit Brawl’ у суботу, Новембар 12, at the Masonic Temple in Detroit

Оставите коментар
Three of Detroit’s brightest prospects, all bantamweights, will appear in separate bouts on Salita Promotions’ latest “Detroit Brawl” догађај на Субота, Новембар 12, at the Masonic Temple in Downtown Detroit.
A “thrill a minute” type slugger with a heavy punch and a giant heart, undefeated 26-year-old James Gordon Smith (10-0, 6 КОс) is never in a bad fight. Before turning pro, Smith won numerous national amateur tournaments and has been talked about in Detroit boxing circles for a long time as a potential future champion.
Once again sponsored by Thomas Magee’s Sporting House Whiskey Bar, Улазнице за “Detroit Brawl” will be priced at ВИП $123, Box Seats $100, Рингсиде $93, $63, $38, и $28 and available at all Ticketmaster outlets and Tickmaster.com.
Smith has already electrified a Detroit Brawl audience, winning a unanimous six-round decision over Mexico’s tough Pablo Cupul last May. True to his fan-friendly form, Smith’s victory over Cupul proved to be a “Борба године” кандидат.
The power-punching Detroiter will be looking to take a step up to world contender status soon and will be hoping to showcase his talents one more time for his hometown fans.
“James Gordon Smith is one of the most exciting fighters from Detroit right now,” said Kronk Gym’s Javan “Шећер” Брдо, one of Detroit’s best-known and most respected trainers. “It’s always a rumble when he fights and that’s because he is like the fighters of the good old days. He’s always looking to get a knockout and his when you see him fight you will see what I am talking about!”
Also on showcase that night will be 21-year-old bantamweight Jarico “Great Lakes King” O’Quinn (3-0, 2 КОс) Детроита, who was one of most sought-after amateur prospects in the country before turning professional last year.
With blazing-fast hands and effortless combination punching, O’Quinn has begun building a reputation as “one to watch,” among young prospects in the sport. He will already be having his third fight under the Salita Promotions banner after signing last July.
O’Quinn started boxing at age 14 and went on to rack up 130 wins against 18 losses as an amateur, winning countless national tournaments including the USA Nationals as the number-one-ranked bantamweight in the country. He also travelled extensively with Team USA to fight internationally in places like Poland, the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico and the Ukraine.
Rounding out the trio is exciting 22-year-old fan favorite Zach Shamoun, of Royal Oak, Мичиген.
Shamoun, who started boxing at age nine, was also an amateur standout. У његовом 160 аматеур туче, he won the Junior Golden Gloves in 2008 and went on to take 14 state and nine regional titles, while losing just nine fights.
A thinking man’s slugger, the quick-fisted Shamoun can stay very relaxed and in control under fire. He has excellent ring generalship and likes to stay two steps ahead of his opponents.
More fights, opponents and rounds will be announced shortly. На фигхт нигхт, Врата се отварају у 5:00 ам and the fights begin at 6:00 ам.
