Mashantucket, CT (Juli 21, 2016) – Neporažena srednja kategorija u usponu Sergije “Tehničar” Derevyanchenko (9-0, 7 KOs) srušena Sam “Kralj” Soliman(44-14, 18 KOs) tri puta prije zaustavljanja bivšeg svjetskog prvaka u drugom kolu glavnog događaja Premier Boxing Champions na ESPN i ESPN Deportes Četvrtak navečer iz kazina Foxwoods Resort u Mashantucketu, CT.
A 2008 Ukrajinski Olympian, Derevjančenko je imao kontrolu od početka, stojeći na zemlji i isporučujući pametne udarce dok je Soliman pokušavao da ga zbuni pokretima i nezgodnim uglovima.
Soliman je uhvaćen sa projektilom desnom rukom Derevjančenka koji je pao pravo na bradu i poslao vanbalansnog Australca na platno. Međutim, Soliman nije djelovao povrijeđeno, dok je nastavio da istupi kako bi pokušao da poremeti i frustrira neporaženog borca.
Derevjančenko je nastavio da pogađa i ponovo uhvatio Solimana van ravnoteže u drugom kolu, ovaj put lijevim hoom koji je spustio Solimana na zemlju. Soliman je ponovo ustao na noge, ali Derevjančenko je brzo zaprepastio Solimana i stavio ga u režim preživljavanja.
Soliman je pokušao da se veže i izbegne Derevjančenka, ali na kraju trening neporaženih boraca, koji trenira u Bruklinu, spustio nekoliko desnih ruku prije nego što je zamašan lijevi hook poslao Solimana na zemlju jako i u posljednje vrijeme noći. Sudija Johnny Callas odmahnuo je na borbu 2:41 drugog kruga.
Uvodni meč večeri bio je težak Ievgen Khytrov (13-0, 11 KOs) vršiti non-stop napad Paul Mendez (19-3-2, 9 KOs) prije nego što su na kraju zaradili prekid u devetoj rundi njihovog meča srednje kategorije.
Khytrov i Mendez su se uprli u prvi krug, razmjenjuju naletima i pokazuju spremnost da stanu ispred svog protivnika. Khytrov je bio taj koji je pokazao raznovrsniji napad dok je brzo startao i sleteo 50 posto njegove snage udari u prve tri runde.
Mendez je stajao čvrsto i nastavio da udara, ali nije uspeo da prizemlji ništa što je smetalo Hitrovu. Borac rođen u Ukrajini koji trenira u Bruklinu rano je napao tijelo dok je Mendeza omalovažavao aperkatima i pauer hookovima. U sedmoj i osmoj rundi Khytrov je pojačao napad dok je naizgled zadavao moćne udarce po svojoj volji.
Borba se nastavila na taj jednostrani način tokom prve minute devete runde. Osećajući priliku, Khytrov je satjerao Mendeza u ugao i pogodio ga serijom neodgovorenih ubačaja zbog kojih je arbitar Joe Lupino prekinuo borbu., na preporuku lekara uz ring, 1:20 u kolo. Khytrov je završio borbu sa a 482-125 prednost u udarcima pri doskoku 50 posto njegovih ukupnih pogodaka.
Evo šta su borci morali reći četvrtak:
SERGIY DEREVYANCHENKO
“Pogledala sam ga u oči nakon što sam ga srušila prvi put i znala sam da će nastaviti da izlazi naprijed. Nisam htela da spustim gard. Nisam ni osjetio taj udarac na rukavici jer je bila tako čista do brade. Ali osjetio sam posljednji udarac.
“Zagrejao sam se više puta i to mi je poremetilo ritam. U ringu sam morao da dobijem svoj ritam.
“Soliman je izašao nervozan i ne baš koordinisan, ali to je način na koji se obično bori. To je njegov stil.
“Nastavit ću ići naprijed. Ne mogu sjediti i čekati. Procijenićemo situaciju i krenuti odavde.”
SAM SOLIMAN
“dobro mi ide. Nisam stigao da se zagrejem, samo par minuta, ali to nije izgovor. Uradio je svoj posao. To mi se nikada ranije nije desilo.
“On je dobar bokser koji je uradio ono što je morao. Ne mogu ništa se od njega.
“Posle svake borbe, borci moraju odlučiti šta dalje. Imam mnogo toga izvan boksa što me čini srećnim, i izvlači žalac večeras.”
IEVGEN KHYTROV
“Volim da se borim i borim i idem prst na prst. Izvršio sam plan igre. Moja odbrana je bila mnogo bolja i puno sam radio na svojoj odbrani. Ovo je bila moja najbolja borba jer je taj momak stajao i borio se, nije trčao.
“Nisam bio iznenađen što je Mendez primio toliko udaraca jer nisam svaki udarac zadao jako, Pomešao sam, ali je zadao neke jake udarce.
“Želim još par borbi, a onda se želim boriti za svjetsku titulu. To je ono na čemu sam naporno radio. Neću nikome izbjeći. Želim da se borim protiv Genadija Golovkina i da mu uzmem pojaseve.”

BETHLEHEM, PA. (Mart 6, 2016) – Julian Williams secured the IBF’s No. 1 position at 154 pounds and called out Junior Middleweight World Champion Jermall Charlo after an impressive seventh-round TKO of Italian Marcello Matano Subota on SHOWTIME from Sands Bethlehem Events Center in Bethlehem, Pa. VIDEO OF WILLIAMS CALLING OUT CHARLO:http://s.sho.com/1UJo5bp
The undefeated Philadelphia native put on a clinic, breaking down his opponent from the opening bell until referee Gary Rosato stepped in to protect a defenseless Matano (16-2, 5 KOs) u 2:24 of the seventh. Williams (23-0-1, 14 KOs) utilized a steady diet of combos, jabs and body shots in the middle rounds to weaken Matano and set up the big shots to close the show in the seventh. VIDEO HIGHLIGHTS: http://s.sho.com/1QzbBBb
Williams landed 59 posto njegove moći snimaka, including a staggering 76 percent in the deciding seventh.
“Maybe people will think they saw a chink in the armor tonight,” Williams je rekao. “Maybe guys will come out from under the rock and get some of this West Philly work.
“Jermall has been watching my performances. Him and his brother know exactly who I am. He needs to fight or vacate now. He needs to step up, but he’s already laying his groundwork and making excuses.
“Step up and fight me. It’s two of the best junior middleweights in the world. It’s about greatness. Želim biti super. All of you turkeys at 154 funti, let’s fight.”
Nakon borbe, Matano took issue with the stoppage.
“He was pretty fast with his jab, but I felt like I was just getting into the fight,” Matano said. “I felt the punch, but I felt like I could have kept going. I have a warrior heart and I never want to quit.
“I’m going to go back to Italy and take a little rest, then I’ll be right back in the gym. It was a wonderful experience coming here to America. I got to fight a top-echelon fighter and I feel like I belong.”
Avtandil Khurtsidze, a human brick wall barreling forward, upset previously unbeaten middleweight contender Antoine Douglas with a thoroughly dominating 10th-round TKO. VIDEO HIGHLIGHTS:http://s.sho.com/21er63g
The 35-year-old “mini-Mike Tyson” plowed forward from the opening bell until the TKO at 0:33 od 10th. The 6-foot Douglas had no answer for his 5-foot-4 opponent, a Brooklyn-based native of Georgia who is looking to become the first world champion from the former Soviet nation.
Khurtsidze (32-2-2, 21 KOs) hurt Douglas (19-1-1, 13 KOs) with a big left in the opening seconds of the third round, sending the 23-year-old face forward through the ropes. Somehow, Douglas recovered from the first knockdown of his career and fought himself back into the fight. The Washington, Da kapo, native rallied to win the fourth and the fifth rounds, and the all-action sixth could have gone either way.
Khurtsidze opened the seventh with a monstrous one-punch left to floor Douglas, who again somehow survived the round on failing legs as Khurtsidze threw over 100 ukupno udaraca. Khurtsidze, who showed unbelievable stamina to push the pressure throughout, started the 10th with a relentless attack, forcing referee Benjy Esteves to stop the fight at 0:33 of the with Douglas defenseless against the ropes.
“I knew he was going to get tired,” said Khurtsidze, who took the fight on less than three weeks notice. “I felt like I was going to catch him. On je dobar borac, but he’s not strong.
“I knew he was going to be hungry. But I also knew that I was going to beat him. It was short notice but I did everything I could in the time we had. I stayed in the gym and stayed sharp.
“Whoever they put in front me, I’m ready for them. Volim borbama. I’ll fight anybody.”
Douglas had entered the fight as a fast-rising 160-pounder on the cusp of a title shot.
“I feel OK,” Douglas told SHOWTME Sports analyst Steve Farhood after the fight. “He definitely dictated. He definitely had a better day today. It’s not discouraging, we just weren’t able to execute. Naturally, I’m crushed. It’s back to the drawing board.”
U uvodnom borbu za televizijska emisija, srednjoj Tony Harrison looked impressive in a sixth round TKO over former world title challenger Fernando Guerrero.
Harrison (23-1, 19 KOs) was the aggressor from the outset, jabbing at range to set up his favorite weapon – a powerful right. The Detroit native floored Guerrero with a big right with 15 seconds to go in the second round. The southpaw got up, but looked hurt and was saved by the bell.
Ratnik (28-4, 20 KOs) had his moments in the fourth and fifth rounds after some heedful advice from his corner, but he couldn’t get inside to escape Harrison’s powerful right. It was a clean left hook midway through the sixth that ultimately finished Guerrero. After Harrison dropped Guerrero with the left, the Dominican Republic native beat the count but had no legs and went back to the canvas after four more consecutive shots from Harrison, forcing referee Gary Rosato to stop the bout at 1:56 of the sixth.
“I threw punches back and I finished the rounds stronger than him,” Said Harrison, koji je sletio 57 posto njegove moći snimaka. “I dominated the fight. My dad kept telling me to put the hook behind the right hand and if I had listened to him better I could have gotten the knockout much quicker.
“I was backing him up. My game plan was to take advantage of the fact that southpaws don’t fight well going backwards. I tried to just keep putting him back and discouraging him. I told everyone I was taking the fight to him. What’s not to like about me? I’m exciting.
“I want big fights, I want to go back to Detroit and I want the Willie Nelson rematch.”
Said Guerrero: “I wasn’t on today. He wasn’t faster than me, stronger than me or more skilled. I just locked up. I wasn’t listening to my corner, I didn’t do anything tonight.
“It just happens. Sometimes you have a bad day. Today was as bad as I could ever imagine.
“We’ll go back to the drawing board. I didn’t do what I was supposed to do. We trained so hard. He wasn’t as fast or strong as we thought he’d be. Today was a bad day for me to have a bad day.”

Ovdje je ono što borci morali reći Četvrtak:
JULIAN WILLIAMS
“I want to thank Matano and his team for coming all the way over here. We’ve had a difficult time getting opponents for different reasons, but I’m excited to headline this stacked card.
“When I win this fight I’ll be able to accomplish my dream of being a world champion. It’s one step closer.
“I’m going to attack the head and body as much as I can. I’ve got enough film on him to see what he’s got. He’s pretty solid. He got better each time out. But those guys in Italy don’t have the skills that I have. I think he’s going to bring it for as long as he can handle it.
“He’s an awkward fighter. He’s definitely a boxer and he can be a little skittish in the ring. I know I’ve fought the better competition and I’ve trained my hardest for this.
“I’m ready to make a statement. I’m not worried about a knockout. However the win comes, it’s great. I’m just looking to win and beat him down.
“I’m expecting a good Philadelphia crowd to be out here supporting me. Ninety percent of my career I’ve been on the West Coast and other places. But now fighting in front of my hometown fans, there’s nothing better. It’s perfect.”
MARCELLO MATANO
“I feel very good. I’ve been here since Friday so I have gotten used to the time zone difference and I’m ready to fight. My American experience is just starting and I’m looking forward to it.
“It’s been a hard two months of training for this fight. This is by far the most important fight of my career so I’ve trained even harder than I usually do.
“I know that Julian Williams is a top-notch athlete and that he is coming to give his best, baš kao i ja sam. It’s going to be an exciting fight because we both want to get to the top.
“I can adapt myself to any opponent. I can be a boxer or I can be a brawler. But in my heart, I am a warrior and I will come forward all fight. I am coming to leave that ring victorious.
“This is a dream come true to come here to the United States. I’ve always worked hard and it’s gotten me here. I will put all of my heart into the ring u subotu noći.”
ANTOINE DOUGLAS
“You can always look forward to an action-packed fight when I step into the ring. I have an admirable opponent who I know is coming to fight.
“I’ve grown into this role and into who I am. If you asked me earlier in my career, I would have never thought I’d be here. This is great and it comes from all the hard work I’ve put in over the years.
“You will see my growth Subota night in the ring. I plan on being victorious. The work I put in won’t let me be any less than that. I’m looking forward to the action.
“I have a very strong opponent and I think it will make for a more exciting fight than Sam Soliman.
“I just always have to be prepared for whatever is thrown at me. This is boxing – there are no guarantees. We just have to be prepared for everything and do our best.
“The styles of Soliman and Khurtsidze are completely different, but we always base our offense and defense off a fighting at range and working the jab. I’m not going in blind – I’ve faced opponents who come forward. We’ll be ready for him and ready to make the adjustments in the ring.
“A Win u subotu will definitely put me in a position for a title shot. We just take it day-by-day. It’s not about looking at future opponents. We take each step successfully and see where it puts us.”
AVTANDIL KHURTSIDZE
“I’m very happy to be here and I’m grateful for the opportunity. I’m fighting a very strong fighter. Once I step into the ring I’m expecting a good challenge and I can’t wait for Subota noć.
“Everything in training went well. We’ve trained really hard and we’re ready for Subota noć.
“Douglas is a good fighter. He’s a good boxer and he has a good left hook. But none of that means anything until you get in the ring.
“Once I step into the ring, I will bring 100 posto. I am not going to stop swinging until Douglas goes down.”
FERNANDO GUERRERO
“We’re ready to fight. We had a great training camp and there’s not too much to say. It’s warrior time.
“I’ve been through my ups and downs, but I’m still here and I’m not going anywhere. This is for my whole nation, everyone in the Dominican Republic who is watching. You have to step in that ring for something.
“This isn’t a game. This is the only sport that you cannot play. I’m going to make this one of those fights that will be one of the best of the year. It will either be the best knockout or the best fight of the year. This is going to be memorable.
“This is the kind of opponent who will bring out the best of me. Everybody has to watch out for me. Ja dolazim da dam izjavu u subotu.”

Here is what Julian and his trainer, Stephen Edwards, morao reći Utorak:
JULIAN WILLIAMS
“I am extremely focused. There is a lot at stake ove subote. I am finally in the position I wanted to be in since turning pro.
“I have come to a conclusion that if people don’t have to fight Julian Williams then they won’t. It hasn’t been that frustrating though because I always have a fight on the books. I can’t worry about the people who won’t fight me. I just have to stay ready and put myself in the mandatory spot. That’s what I am going to do u subotu noć.
“It’s never any challenge fighting at home. I know exactly what I have to do. I don’t cut any corners in camp. The biggest challenge is the waiting because I am so anxious to get in there and get a win, especially in front of my home crowd.
“I always knew I wanted to pursue a boxing career, so I treat it like I want it. I’ve been dreaming about this for a long time and my opportunity is finally here.
“I’ve been a student of the game since I started watching boxing. I want to learn and I want to know everything about boxing.
“It means everything to have my biggest fight to date in my backyard. I know my fans cheer loud and it feels great to have their support in my corner.
“I know everything about my opponent. I probably know what kind of toothpaste he used this morning. I searched high and low for videos of Matano. I am ready because I know he is ready.
“He is a little bit awkward. He seems to have a really good gas tank. He said he wants to take me the distance, so we’ll see.
“The last fight solidified the things that I already knew about myself. I know I am fundamentally sound and I know I am the hungriest fighter in the world.
“I always want to put on an explosive performance. It’s always about a win.
“In about nine months, Philadelphia will have it’s fourth IBF super welterweight champion after David Reid, Robert Hines and Buster Drayton.”
STEPHEN EDWARDS, Williams’ trener
“We are ready. It’s been a long four-month camp. We thought were going to fight in January, so we’ve been grinding through this rough weather early in the morning. Julian is chomping at the bit and ready to rock ‘n roll.
“We thought we were going to fight Austin Trout in December, and he saw that Julian gave his opponent a concussion and said I don’t want to fight him. It’s just that simple. We have to get past Matano and then we can talk about (super welterweight champion Jermall) Charlo.
“Anybody with two hands and a heartbeat can fight. Matano is ranked and just because he isn’t well known, it doesn’t mean he can’t fight. On je 16-1 and they didn’t have a hard time convincing him to take the fight. The best soldiers are volunteers. Any time someone willingly comes to someone else’s country, you have to take him seriously.
“I don’t want to make a prediction, but Julian will hurt this guy very bad.”

ANTOINE DOUGLAS TO FACE AVTANDIL KHURTSIDZE IN MARCH 5 SHOWTIME BOXING: SPECIAL EDITION® CO-FEATURE

Ostavite komentar

Khurtsidze Replaces The Injured Sam Soliman

 

Julian Williams Takes On Marcello Matano In 154-Pound Eliminator In Main Event Of Tripleheader Live On SHOWTIME® From Sands Bethlehem Events Center in Bethlehem, Pa.

 

NEW YORK (Februar. 23, 2016) – Undefeated middleweight contenderAntoine Douglas će se suočiti teško udaranja Avtandil Khurtsidze in the co-feature of SHOWTIME BOXING: SPECIAL EDITION® u subotu, Mart 5, živjeti SHOWTIME® (10 poslije podne. I/PT) from Sands Bethlehem Events Center in Bethlehem, Pa.

 

Khurtsidze (30-2-2, 20 KOs) steps in to face GH3 Promotions’ Douglas (19-0-1, 13 KOs) in a 10-round middleweight bout for the WBO International title after Sam Soliman pulled out of the fight last week with a knee injury.

 

Khurtsidze, Brooklyna, N.Y.. by way of Kutaisi, Gruzija, has won eight straight – including six by knockout – since dropping a controversial decision to then-unbeaten Hassan N'Dam in a bout for the vacant interim WBA World Middleweight Title in Paris in 2010.

 

Khurtsidze was scheduled to face N’Dam in a rematch last Novembar 21 u Parizu, but the event was cancelled following the tragic Novembar 13 terror attacks in France. The rematch with the former world champion was to be contested for the IBF No. 2 spot at 160 funti.

 

A pressure fighter, Khurtsidze was also slated to fight last week on a DiBella Entertainment Broadway Boxing event and has been training since the fight with N’Dam was called off. The 36-year-old, who has also campaigned at super middleweight, is coming off a knockout victory over Melvin Betancourt last August.

 

“Avtandil is a world class guy, a former silver titlist and has been at the top of the division for years,” rekao je Lou DiBella, Predsjednik DiBella Entertainment. “This is a great opportunity for him and a huge step up for Douglas. Avtandil had been on his way to France to fight for the No. 2 ranking against N’Dam when the tragic terrorist attacks hit Paris, which was a terribly unfortunate situation for all. Sada, he looks to impress in this fight against the highly regarded Douglas. The winner of this bout moves up significantly in the middleweight world rankings and will be in line for a major fight in the 160-pound division later this year.”

 

In the main event of the SHOWTIME BOXING: SPECIAL EDITION tripleheader, Julian “J-Rock” Williams and once-beaten Italian Marcello Matano will square off in a 12-round IBF eliminator for the No. 1 ranking at 154 funti. U uvodnom borbu za televizijska emisija, hard-hitting prospect Tony Harrison will face veteran former world title challenger Fernando Guerrero u 10-okrugli super velter takmičenje a.
