“تقاطع طرق: doubleheader results from N.H.: كندريك الكرة, الابن. hits home run vs. بريان فيرا

“Crossroads” results from New Hampshire

ديري, N.H. (أبريل 18, 2021) -Former New England middleweight championKendrick “Peppa” Ball, الابن. turned in a career-best performance in last night’s main event against dangerousBryan “The Warrior” Vera on the evening portion of the “Crossroads” day-night doubleheader, التي قدمتها الترقيات الجرانيت والذقن, at New England Sports Center in Derry, New Hampshire.

The pre-fight plan was followed as Ball (16-1-2, 11 كوس) boxed and moved, while Vera (28-17, 18 كوس) applied pressure, right from the opening bell. Ball took control in the second round, when he stayed in the pocket, snapping off crisp combinations. Ball fired more effective combinations in the third round as Vera started chasing his opponent. Ball started moving around the ring and fighting from the outside in the fourth and stayed on his toes the remainder of the fight.

Ball won an 8-round unanimous decision (79-73, 79-73, 78-74) to become the World Boxing Council (WBC) USNBC (الولايات المتحدة الأمريكية) Silver Super Middleweight Champion.

“This was my best fight, because of who I fought, and the magnitude of the fight,” Ball commented. “The plan was to box and move because he was much smaller and slower. At times I banged, when I knew he wasn’t hurting me, but I shouldn’t have taken the risks.”

The 39-year-old Vera isn’t the same fighter he was when he beat three different world champions –أندي ليسيرجيو مورا (مرتين) وسيرحي دزينزيروك.  The Texan needs to decide if it’s time to finally hang up his gloves.

“This was awesome, definitely our best show to date,” Granite Chin’sكريس تريتي declared after the show. “We feel great about stepping up to give these fighters, especially the locals, a platform to perform on in front of fans. I think a lot of promoters have gotten lazy. They gave us a lane and Granite Chin took advantage. This was our fourth show with fans during the last year. Brian fought hard and he’s a great guy, but he’s not the same guy he was in 2011. He needs to think about what he’s going to do.

“Granite Chin returns here June 26عشر with another doubleheader. The afternoon show will be the Granite Chin Invitational for open elite boxers. With the New England Golden Gloves canceled again there is a void to fill. If promoters are going to help amateurs, I certainly will, starting June 26عشر."

تشالنجرMarquis Bates (8-4, 6 كوس) dethroned defending New Hampshire Welterweight Championريان Dibartolomeo (3-2-1, 1 KO) via a sixth-round stoppage in an entertaining co-feature. A devastating overhand right from Bates gave him his new crown as the referee didn’t even count as the ring doctor quickly entered the ring.

لاري "Hitman" بريور took the contract out onScott Lambert and he wasted little time taking care of business to become the New Hampshire Cruiserweight Champion. Pryor took advantage of his decisive height and reach advantages, closing the show with a perfectly thrown left hook that sent Lambert to the canvas. Lambert managed to beat the count, but the referee stopped the fight midway through the opening round when he saw Lambert wobbling back and forth on rubbery legs.

Lanky lefthandedFrancis “The Tank” Hogan (5-0, 5 كوس) graduated last night with a brilliant performance againstLarry “Slo Mo” Smith, who was in his 60عشر career fight. Hogan put down Smith early in the third round and caught the Texan late in the same round with a lefty-combination to the temple. Smith beat the count, but he was unable to answer the bell for the fourth round, and 20-year-old Hogan became the new New Hampshire Junior Middleweight Champion.

Former New England heavyweight championJustin “Crazy Train” Rolfe (5-2-1, 4 كوس) positioned himself for another N.E. title shot with a spectacular knockout ofAlfredo “Choncho” Trevino (9-9-1, 1 KO). The 263-pound Rolfe, fighting out of Fairfield, مين, charged across the ring at the bell and put his Arizona opponent to sleep right in his corner, when he was counted out at the 20-seconds mark.

The newest member of the fightin’ Whitley family from western Massachusetts, وزن الوسط مهزومDenzel Whitley, cruised to his fourth victory with his fourth knockout. He drilledAquilandro Brandao late in round one and the fight was stopped by the referee.

مهزومJahye Brown (9-0, 7 كوس) captured the vacant ABF Athletic junior middleweight title with a hard fought 8-round unanimous decision over a game Mexican opponent,Dormedes Potes (12-4-1, 9 كوس).  The two fought toe-to-toe from the opening bell and Brown landed the more effective punches inside to earn the victory.

UBO All-America Welterweight ChampionBrandon “The Cannon” Berry (21-5-2, 13 كوس) successfully defended in the afternoon card’s main event, overcoming a slow start in which he was buzzed to stop challengerGael Ibarra (5-3, 4 كوس) in the fifth round.

Berry finished the fight in the fifth, when he unloaded twin barrages of unanswered punches on a trapped Ibarra until the referee waved off the fight.

“I’m glad it wasn’t a 4-round fight,” Berry said after the fight. “He was a strong guy. I was feeling it. He tested me. I want to thank my family and friends here, and Granite Chin and everybody involved in the promotion.”

(ائتمان: ابيكس / ديانا جارسيا – بيك ميديا)

FRESNO, مثل (أغسطس 1, 2018)ماركوس “رجل مجنون” هرنانديز (11-1-1, 3 كوس), الذي نصحه الهيمون والقتال تحت رئيس الوزراء الملاكمة أبطال أوروبا منصة بطاقات القتال, سيظهر في الموسم القادم من المنافس على EPIX®.

 

الموسم 12 حلقة المرتقب, من تلفزيون MGM وتلفزيون باراماونت, سيتم العرض الأول في EPIX® في أغسطس. 24, 2018, في 10 PM ET / PT مع كون Hernandez واحدًا من أكثر الأوزان المتوسطة شهرة في المسلسل معارك متعددة متلفزة على FS1.

 

هرنانديز, من مواليد فريسنو, مثل, تدرب مع والده جوي هيرنانديز حتى خسارة قرار الانقسام التي نوقشت بشدة لصالح Kyrone “أغلقتها” جعل ديفيس هيرنانديز يعيد التفكير في عاداته التدريبية. ومنذ ذلك الحين ، نقل معسكره إلى جنوب كاليفورنيا وبدأ التدريب معه هنري راميريز. منذ انتقال هيرنانديز, منذ ذلك الحين لم يهزم في المجال المهني.

 

 

“أنا متحمس لأن الكثير من الناس سوف يرونني في The Contender,” وقال هيرنانديز. “أحببت أن أكون في العرض ونشأت كنت أشاهده كل أسبوع. كان من المدهش أن نرى اندريه وارد و سيرجيو مورا هناك. هذان الشخصان مقاتلان قاتلوا بالوزن المتوسط ​​الذي كنت أراه طوال مسيرتي المهنية.”

Julian Williams Training Camp Notes

Super Welterweight Contender Takes on Nathaniel Gallimore Saturday, أبريل 7 in 154-Pound Title Eliminator Live on SHOWTIME from Hard Rock Hotel & كازينو, لاس فيغاس

سانت تشارلز, مثل (مارس 30, 2018) – Top super welterweight contender جوليان “J-روك” وليامز will look to put himself closer to another world title shot when he faces ناثانيل غاليمور in a 154-pound world title eliminator Saturday, أبريل 7 live on SHOWTIME from Hard Rock Hotel and Casino, لاس فيغاس.

 

 

 

The Premier Boxing Champions event is headlined by إيريسلاندي لارا, the longest reigning world champion at 154-pounds, clashing with undefeated champion جاريت هيرد in a highly anticipated 154-pound world title unification bout. يبدأ بث شوتايم بطولة الملاكمة في 10 عصرا. ET / 7 مساءا. PT and also features super middleweight world champion كالب Truax in a rematch against former champion جيمس DeGale.

 

 

 

The 12-round IBF title eliminator gives Williams a chance to earn a second world title fight, while it would be Gallimore’s first shot at the title. Gallimore has been outspoken in his belief that he will stop Williams, but Williams has chosen to not let the words affect him and focus on the task at hand.

 

 

 

I have no reaction to the talk coming from Gallimore,” وقال وليامز. “He’s trying to draw attention to himself and doing it in a classless way. If he wants a back-and-forth, he’s going to be talking to himself.

 

 

 

He seems like he’s a strong fighter, but you never really know until you step in the ring with a guy. He’s on a hot streak, he’s a big puncher and obviously he has a lot of confidence. We thought this would be a good test and I think it’s going to be a great fight for the fans.

 

 

 

Williams is currently finishing up training camp at the SNAC gym in San Carlos, California with trainer Stephen Edwards. In addition to work in the first part of training in Philadelphia with DeCarlo Perez and Jaron Ennis, he has sparred with the likes of Peter Quillin, Prenice Brewer and Joey Spencer in California.

 

 

 

I’ve been coming out to California for parts of camp since 2014 and it’s really just something that gives me a bit of a spark heading into the fight,” وقال وليامز. “There are some elevation and recovery aspects of training that we can do out here. It’s also a good way to get away from things and really dig to another level.

 

 

 

Williams has been on the road back to title contention after dropping his first title shot to Jermall Charlo in 2016. Williams knew that he did not need to revamp his entire game and has recovered with victories over former champion Ishe Smith and Joshua Conley leading into this fight.

 

 

 

I thought I was doing well in the Charlo fight so I never pushed the panic button after it didn’t go my way,” وقال وليامز. “Sometimes you win and sometimes you lose. The plan was always to improve each fight and each day in camp, so that’s what we’re still doing. We’ll see on April 7 if it’s enough.

 

 

 

With an opponent who enters this fight on a seven-fight knockout streak, Williams knows he will have to use all of his physical and mental skills to pull out the victory.

 

 

 

It’s going to be up to me what this fight looks like,” وقال وليامز. “In the ring you have to be mature. I can’t get drawn into the kind of fight that he wants. If I stay focused, I should dominate him.

 

 

 

I’m never going to look past anybody. I know that there’s nothing I can do in my future in this sport if I don’t beat Gallimore. I’m ready to go in there and look impressive on April 7.

قراءة, السلطة الفلسطينية. (سبتمبر 10, 2016) – Middleweight world champion دانيال “معجزة رجل” جاكوبس (32-1, 29 كوس) retained his title and knocked down former world champion سيرجيو “الأفعى اللاتينية” مورا (28-5-2, 9 كوس) five times on his way to a seventh-round TKO in the main event of رئيس الوزراء الملاكمة أبطال أوروبا في مسمار الجمعة night from Santander Arena in Reading, السلطة الفلسطينية.
The bout was a rematch of their championship fight last August that saw Jacobs win by TKO despite being dropped in the first round. Mora suffered an ankle injury on the punch that ended the last fight but he was not able to capitalize on his second chance.
Jacobs was in control early and often, attacking the body of Mora and switching between orthodox and southpaw styles to stay in control throughout. Mora was evasive and used good head movement to frustrate Jacobs early but could never get his own offense going.
The champion from Brooklyn stayed the course and in round four he broke through with a left hook to the head that sent Mora crumpling to the mat. Mora recovered but again had a knockdown scored against him in round five.
Sensing his moment, Jacobs came out aggressive in the seventh round as he clearly sought an end to the fight. A left right combo dropped Mora in the corner early in the round before he was dropped from a body shot moments after getting back on his feet.
Referee Gary Rosato let the fight continue but Jacobs put a quick end to the night by smothering Mora and dropping him for the fifth and final time, forcing the referee to stop the bout at 2:08 في الجولة.
In front of a raucous and supportive crowd, مهزوم النجم الصاعد روبرت عيد الفصح (18-0, 14 كوس) earned a narrow split-decision victory over previously unbeaten ريتشارد كومي (24-1, 22 كوس) in a thrilling contest that saw both men grab momentum at different points throughout the 12-round bout.
Easter used his jab and length advantage in round one and appeared to have more success throughout the night when he fought from a distance. The fight vacillated between a tactical battle and a toe-to-toe war by the round and even by the minute.
The Ghanaian Commey was aggressive throughout the fight and had success pushing Easter to the ropes and catching him with big right hands. In round eight, Commey scored a knockdown on one of those right hands, as referee Benjy Esteves ruled that Easter’s glove hit the canvas as a result of the punch.
Easter and Commey both came out firing in round nine, engaging in one of the many exchanges that put the lively crowd on its feet. Easter had great success throughout the night with his right uppercut that consistently caught Commey coming in, but never deterred him completely.
Both men reached the 12-round limit for the first time in their careers but it was Easter who took advantage of the final stanza by rocking and wobbling Commey with a big overhand right just seconds into the round.
Commey was able to survive on the ropes and by consistently wrapping up his opponent. Both men were lifted to the air in triumph by their trainers after the final bell rang as the crowd cheered the two combatants. In the end the judges scored the fight 114-113 for Commey and 115-112 و 114-113 for Easter.
هنا هو ما كان المقاتلين القول الجمعة ليل:
DANIEL جاكوبس
I have to take my hat off to Sergio Mora. There was a lot of talking before this fight, ولكن هذا هو الملاكمة. I respect any man who gets inside of this ring.
I want to prove to the world that I’m the best middleweight. If GGG gets the victoryغدا, that’s who we want.
I wanted to go in there to hurt him and keep my knockout streak alive. I did what I said I would.
I didn’t expect to knock him down as much, but I did see the fight ending in a knockout. It took a while because he’s so tricky. I wasn’t able to jab the way I wanted to. That’s what happens when you fight guys who have been in the game for a long time.
The support of my city means a lot. There are guys here that I’ve known since kindergarten. People showed me love across the board and it was tremendous. For them to be on this journey with me, it means everything. أنا أعيش حلمي.
This one’s for Brooklyn. We have to spread the love around but I’ll be back home in December headlining at Barclays Center.
SERGIO MORA
The guy punches really hard. I was trying to catch him like I did in the first fight but I couldn’t do it today.
We expected him to fight the way he did. He’s big and powerful. I knew I would have to catch him with a few shots and take him into the later rounds. I think I was doing that until my legs couldn’t recover.
I’m not going to take anything away from his victory, but I never recovered from a shot to the back of the head. They counted it as a knockdown so I’ll have to take a look at the video, but it felt like the back of the head.
This guy is a big overwhelming figure. When he got on top of me I could feel his weight. You really need those legs to wake up when you get buzzed.
The fight was close in my heart. Daniel finally gave me credit. I didn’t feel like I got beat up, he just caught me with good shots. I have a lot left in me. I’m going to look at the tape and see where I’m at.
ROBERT عيد الفصح
It’s been a long training camp. We had an amazing training camp. This fight wasn’t easy at all. We knew it wasn’t going to be easy. Richard Commey is a tough, منافس قوي. He made me fight each and every round, but we did it.
The game plan was to go out there and box him and use my length and reach. I made a few mistakes هذه الليلة. One of them was not fighting him early enough. It wouldn’t have been close. In the last round, when I needed the round, I went out and got it.
I took everything that I had, الكل 16 years in the sport, and I used it to go get that belt.
You always have to stay composed as a professional. I wasn’t hurt at all on the knockdown. I know what happened in there. He threw a shorter right hand and I stumbled. I finished the round tough.
Early in the fight I thought I hurt him with a hook and right hand combo. In the last round I caught him right on the chin. That wobbled him. He held on for dear life.
I knew it was going to come down to a split decision. I felt in my heart that I did enough. He missed a lot of shots.
I want more straps. I want belts. This is huge for my city. فهذا يعني الكثير. It’s bigger than me. I wanted to give them something to believe in.
All this hard work we had to put in for this fight, we had to dig in deep. I did this for my city and Toledo came out for me هذه الليلة.”
RICHARD COMMEY
I feel like I won this fight. I did everything that I could. I landed the more accurate shots. I come from very far and it’s hard to win here versus an American. I deserve a rematch.
I was very devastated when I heard the scores. I knew it was a close fight. He went down and I didn’t.
I want to be a world champion. Even if he doesn’t want to fight me, I want another opportunity. I can fight at the highest level in the world. We worked so hard to get to this stage. I want to stay at this level. I’ll keep improving.

DANIEL جاكوبس
It’s an honor to be up here as the main event with these young fighters and future champions. I’m excited to be back in the ring. It’s been too long but I’ve been training hard and I feel great.
I’m going to do what I do best. People talk about my power, but I get my skills from the amateur system and from proving that I have the goods. I have the power in addition to the skill set. I’m planning on proving that الجمعة ليل.
I’ll be ready every round to give it my best and he better come in ready to fight. I’m excited to be here and display my skills in a new place.
The fans are looking forward to a good fight so I hope Sergio is ready to make this an exciting battle. I’m going to show everybody my full arsenal.
SERGIO MORA
Our last fight was on the way to being a ‘Fight of the Year,’ but I busted my ankle in the second round and I couldn’t continue. I’ve been waiting 13 months for this opportunity and I’m completely ready. This has been a fantastic training camp.
It’s time for business. People don’t know what’s going to happen. He has big power and I have a lot of experience and tricks up my sleeve. The later the fight goes, the better off for me.
I’m ready for any way this fight can go. I’m excited about this fight and the fans should be excited about this fight. We’re proud fighters and I can’t wait to get in there.
ROBERT عيد الفصح
This is a big opportunity and something I’ve wanted for my whole life. Ever since I was nine-years-old. All the hard work I’ve put in since I was a kid, everyone will see. I will put on a great performance
We already were working hard before we knew we had this title shot. Someone has to pay for the work I’ve been putting in for 16 years in this business. يوم الجمعة night it will be another victory and another man down.
RICHARD COMMEY
I’m very happy to be here and I’m thankful for this opportunity. When I first started boxing this is what I hoped for.
This is all that I have had on my mind. This is what has motivated me for many years.
“مثل الجمعة night I’m going to be ready to fight and I’m going to be a world champion.

Road to Heavyweight championship continues this Friday for Travis Kauffman

قراءة, السلطة الفلسطينية (سبتمبر 5, 2016)–Travis Kauffman believes he is very close to realizing his goal to fight for the heavyweight championship of the world.
In order for that to be realized, he must not stumble يوم الجمعة night when he takes on Josh Gormley as part of the undercard of a championship doubleheader at the Santander Arena in Kaufman’s hometown of Reading, بن.
بطاقة, which has been dubbed the biggest fight card in Reading, will be televised live on Spike TV, will be headlined by Daniel Jacobs defending the WBA Middleweight championship in a rematch against former junior middleweight titlist Sergio Mora. في متلفزة المشارك ميزة, undefeated lightweights Robert Easter Jr. and Richard Commey vie for the vacant IBF Lightweight title.
كوفمان (30-1, 22 وKO), who has been training in Reading for this fight. knows he can’t slip up against the hard punching Gormley.
Training has been good and we have been working hard,” وقال كوفمان.
Despite what people may think, there is no added pressure fighting at home. It is just another day at the office. When I am in the ring, I just block the crowd out and I am just trying to look good.
In Gormley, he taking on an opponent has a record of 22-5 مع 21 knockouts and Kauffman is not taken him lightly.
Gormley is a big guy and a big puncher. Any guy who is over 200 جنيه, you have to take seriously and I do not underestimate anybody.
Kauffman feels that a good performance should put him on the short-list for a world title shot in the next year.
We are hoping in the beginning of 2017 that we can get a title shot. The ultimate goal is to be champion of the world. I know a lot of fighters think its about the money, but in order to make that money, you have to be champion.
Kauffman may have already received that coveted title shot had he been awarded the decision in his December 12, 2015 bout with Chris Arreola.
In that bout, Kauffman dropped Arreola and most people who watched the fight ringside and on television believed Kauffman should have been given the decision. But Arreola got the majority nod, but later tested positive in a post fight drug test and the bout was ruled a no-contest. Arreola subsequently got a 16 يوليو title shot, but was stopped by WBC champion Deontay Wilder.
I can’t dwell on that fight. It is behind me. Chris is a friend, but he didn’t take advantage of the opportunity. That was yesterday and I am only looking forward to my future.
The selection Gormley has it’s purpose as he stands 6’5and Kauffman sees this as a rehearsal for bigger fights down the line.
This is a stay busy fight, but he is dangerous. He is a tall guy and when you look at all the champions, وايلدر, جوشوا, غضب شديد, they are all very tall men. If I can’t get one of them next, I want someone in the top-ten. أريد أن محاربة أفضل. Everyone is avoiding Luis Ortiz, أحب أن نقاتله. أنتوني جوشوا, آرثر دبوس. I need fights like that because it will prove to everyone that I belong at the top of the division,but first things first. I have to be cautious of Gormley’s power.
كوفمان, who has very good boxing skills, has a different mindset for his future fights.
I learned in that fight, that I can’t leave anything to the judges. The way my trainer Naazim Richardson trains his fighters, they really make them believe in themselves. ليلة الجمعة, I am not looking past Gormley, I am looking through him, and I can’t wait to see what the future has in store for me.

للنشر الفوري
مارك أبرامز
حسنا. Welcome to the Daniel Jacobs/Sergio Mora conference call. The rematch will take place الجمعة ليل, September 9th, at the Santander Arena in Reading, بنسلفانيا, and live on Spike TV. It’s a championship double header, a great show that will also feature the IBF lightweight championship of the world between undefeated Robert Easter and undefeated Richard Commey of Accra, غانا. The show is promoted by Kings Boxing. And to make some opening statements, the President of Kings Boxing Mr. مارشال كوفمان. مارشال?
مارشال كوفمان
يا هلا, الجميع. It’s a pleasure to be able to host such an exciting fight comeSeptember 9th. I’m looking forward to fireworks between both thesewith both of these bouts. You havewith Richard Commey and Robert Easter, الابن, وبالطبع, Daniel Jacobs and Sergio Mora, it’s going to be an exciting night. أنا حقا اتطلع الى ذلك. And the [لا يمكن فهمه] town of Reading as well is really excited about such a big event coming to our town.
Abrams
جيد, we’ll start with Robert Easterwould like to make an opening comment.
روبرت عيد الفصح
نعم, I’ll all very excited to come to Reading, السلطة الفلسطينية, and fight for the IBF world title. نأمل, Richard Commey will bring his A game to the table because I’m definitely bringing my A-plus game to the table.
Abrams
و, ريتشارد, would you like to make an opening statement?
ريتشارد كومي
يا, نعم, I’m very excited to have this opportunity to fight for the IBF lightweight world title. I’ve worked so hard to get this opportunity. And I know Robert Easter, الابن, has also. هكذا, انها ستكون معركة كبيرة.
Q
روبرت, أساسيا, he hasn’t faced anyone with your height, يصل, قوة, and speed. Is that accurate? Can you give an assessment of your thoughts on that?
عيد الفصح
نعم, لا, he hasn’t faced anyone like me and my agility, قوتي, my length, my reach. He hasn’t faced a guy like me. هكذا, that’s where I come in and take over this fight.
Q
من ناحية أخرى, who would you say that you have faced that is either comparable or better than him in ways that you think he needhe would need to be able to compete against you?
عيد الفصح
كان–منديز, he was a speedy, speedy guy, بسرعة, and could move a lot. لكن, what I’m hearing, Commey brings pressure I guess. That’s probably the only thing Mendez didn’t have. He came–لقد جاء بالتأكيد للقتال, رغم أن, but he was a speedy guy, a slick guy, to move his hands.
Q
I guess the last question, is there anything that is different or unique about Richard that you haven’t seen in an actual fight? I know you’ve been in sparring with guys like [لامونت بيترسون] وأنتوني بيترسون, أدريان برونر, guys like that. لكن, in an actual fight, is there anything about him that you respect to the level that you’re really going to have to be on your P’s and Q’s about?
عيد الفصح
Every opponent you step in the ring with you have to respect. لكن, it’s nothing unique I see coming from him. It’s nothing I haven’t seen or faced. هكذا, كما قلت, this should be a walk in the park for me, and I say that with confidence.
Q
حسنا. ريتشارد, I wonder what tradition you know when you talk about Azumah Nelson Have you talked to any of those guys or heard from any of those guys ?
Commey
نعم. And I’m going to use the advice Azumah gave me over the last few weeks here in Ghana.
Q
ريتشارد, how does Robert stack up to left hander went the distance with both those guys. Have you seen anything like what you’re going to see out of Robert in terms of reach and–?
Commey
I’ve inspired a lot of people with a lot of heart. I need this opportunity. His height really won’t matter. I’m coming there to win and that’s what I’m coming to do.
Q
The last question, what do you think you’vethat he hasn’t fought anyone like? What do you think is unique about you that he hasn’t seen before?
Commey
جيد, I’m a tall guy. And no matter what he does, I can win. أنا قوي. And I can take punches and I can punch as well. I can do all that. If he can’the will lose. I respect the height and his reach and his skills as a boxer.
Q
I’ll start with you, عيد الفصح. Welcome to the fight, and good luck to you. You mentioned that you’re ready, and Commey has not fought anybody of your caliber. لكن, if you look at both records, you guys are both undefeated with a nice double figure of knockouts. And he’s already a champion is his country and all that. الآن, and you are an ex-Olympian. Are you telling me, or as I understand, that you’re minimizing what he has, taking in consideration that he is undefeated, just like you, and somebody’s always got to go? هكذا, what do youhow do you assess that?
عيد الفصح
Seeing the few rounds I did watch is the skills, and I wouldn’t say they were that good, but he–كما قلت, he’s just very strong. يقولون انه قوي. لكن, you’re only strong to somebody you can hit.
When you got toboxing out there, مثلي, I’m using my rank, my length, and what I’m throwing [can be] hard as well, how you going to be able to get past that? هكذا, كما قلت, the skills are not much there. لكن, I don’t like to get hit that much. I won’t get hit that much. هكذا, I’m going to take all that away, and then whatever he’s bringing and adjust to have him adjust to me. Once I get him in my game plan, the fight is going to go my way the whole few rounds it’s going to last.
Q
Do you feel that your Olympic experience is an advantage over him because, بعد كل شيء, when you get to the high heights of Olympic experience and international amateur fighting, you’re almost like a pro? It’s almost like stepping into the living room when you turn pro. هكذا, that hasyou have an edge on that?
عيد الفصح
I wouldn’t pretty much focus on the amateur side because the transition from the amateur to pro is way different. You know patience.So, I’ll transition pretty quickly like Lamont Peterson, أنتوني بيترسون, أدريان BRONER, guys like that..
Q
Are you hoping tojust to name two guys to follow the tradition of African champions, like Ike Quartey and the great Azumah Nelson, to bring another title back to Africa? Is this whatnot only to win, بالطبع, but isthis is your direction, your crusade, when you were saying that, “أخيرا, I got a chance at a world title,” and your heart of hearts, this is what you want to do, to bring another title to Africa?
Commey
نعم, that’s exactly what I want to do. مثلما قلت, the likes of Ike Quartey, أزوماه نيلسون, to bring a championship back to my country.
Q
Knowing that this is for the vacant IBF world title, بالطبع, what have youwithout giving out trade secrets, what have you done in camp todifferent or with a high acceleration to make sure that your hand is raised in victory over Easter?
Commey
جيد, بالطبع, I spar a lot of big guys like Joshua Clottey, and I have the kind of power to excel in the gym and on fight night. I want to follow the tradition of Ghanaian boxing. هكذا, I’m coming there to make sure, once I get my game plan underway, then I’ll victorious.
Q
Do you run at all the risk of being a little overconfident against another opponent who is also undefeated and has traveled all over, fought a lot of different type of fighters in all different countries and certainly has no fear of coming here? Are you a little overconfident in those remarks?
عيد الفصح
لا, على الاطلاق. على الإطلاق. I believe in my skill. And I know what I’ll come and do, just like my last fight and fight before that and a few fights before that. Once I got my game plan, when I come in the ring, I know how to make the fighter try to adjust to me. Once I get a fighter try and adjust to me, then the fight is already won.
The skills, you can see the skills, mine and his. He’s a straight coming-forth fighter, try to hard punch and all that. لكن, when got boxing and you can punch as well and you can move, don’t matter. It speaks for itself.
Q
هكذا, how surprised were you that Barthelemy did give up the title and that you ended up getting this title shot? Seems to me probably about maybe around a year or so or at least in the IBF 9 أو 10 months sooner than maybe you had expected.
عيد الفصح
I knew after the Mendez fight I was going to have a big fight coming up. هكذا, either way, I was going to train like it was a championship fight, like I do always. هكذا, it is surprising that it came up this soon.
Q
Do you think, when you face him, you’re going to have to use your height and length and box him because you mentioned how aggressive he is, or is this going to be similar to Argenis Mendez, where you can drop that big shot at any moment and knock the guy out?
عيد الفصح
نعم, I’m going to and I will have to box. That’s the plan for every opponent I fight. I box and use my length. هكذا, as long as I do that and see a weaknesswherever I see a weakness, that’s when I go for it.
Q
I count six different countries that you’ve fought in between your home country, الولايات المتحدة الأمريكية, throughout Europe. Can you talk about what that experience has done in terms of giving you confidence to come again to the United States and take on an American fighter in a pretty significant fight for a world title?
Commey
مثلما قلت, I’ve been fighting all over the world. I’m very comfortable fighting in the U.S. I don’t really think about where I’m going to fight, just do my best, and whatever happens, I take it because, كملاكم, I need to prepare. I need to be ready to go wherever to fight. I’m ready to go anywhere to fight to so wherever I go as a boxer. هكذا, I’m all good
Q
ريتشارد, can you just give me your opinion about the kind of fighter and what you think about the style of Robert Easter, if you’ve seen him fight?
Commey
What I’ve seen of him, I know he’s a great boxer, a skilled boxer, and he tries to move a lot. لكن, likewise, يمكنني مربع. I can come forward. هكذا, on the night of the fight, قطعا, I know what I’m going to do.
Q
Did you have a preference of fighting Barthelemy, who was the reigning champion, or taking on another undefeated fighter for the vacant title, or did it not make a difference to you?
Commey
جيد, في نهاية اليوم, that’s you want. Once you got a chance to fight for it, whatever comes, it doesn’t really matter who you’re supposed to fight. It’s the title I want. هكذا, لي, I don’t really feel much disappointed. I’m there to fight for the title. That’s what I want. هكذا, I’m not disappointed. It’s all good as I’m really looking forward for the title. And once I’m fighting for the title, I don’t mind.
Abrams
حسنا. We’re going to wrap up this part of the call. I know we’ve gotSergio is on the line. And I think Daniel will be on the line in a second. Just a quick final comment from both, we’ll start with Robert.
عيد الفصح
Just be ready September 9th. I’ll come bring a lot of fireworks and a lot of action and another short bout, September 9th, and will be the IBF champion.
Commey
Come on the 9عشر من سبتمبر. I’m coming to put my life on the line. And I’m going to be the world champion, IBF lightweight world champion.
Abrams
شكرا, الرجال. We’ll see you in Reading September 9th. و, Danielle, I think we’re ready now with theI believe Sergio is on the line. I know Daniel going to be in, in a second. اعتقد, while we wait for Daniel, مارشال, I don’t know if you want to introduce Sergio?
كوفمان
سيرجيو مورا, a very exciting fighter. His last fight was fireworks. And I’m looking forward to fireworks once again. Danny Jacobs dropped him first, and Sergio came back and took advantage of Danny’s mistakes. And then the third knockdown was something that’s still a question mark, whether it was from a knockdown or a twisted ankle. هكذا, there are question marksthere are questions that are left to be spoken for. And I believe Sergio is in shape. And we’ll see, مثل September 9th. How about it, سيرجيو?
سيرجيو مورا
It was no knockdown. I alwaysI’m the one getting punched, على فكرة. هكذا, I didn’t feel the punch, and it was definitely just me twisting my ankle. It was Jacobs pushing me down as well. نعم, the referee kept warning Jacobs also that he was pushing me down with his elbow. I normally go down low like that. هكذا, it’s not the first time it happened. هكذا, it’s a mix of a lot of things. لكن, it wasn’t a punch to knock me down. It was all my ankle. And if was a punch, then why didn’t I stay down? I was up at the count of two or three on one foot. هكذا, it definitely wasn’t a punch.
Abrams
And I believe the WBA middleweight champion Daniel Jacob on the line. دانيال, you want opening statements and maybe a response to that?
دانيال جاكوبس
جيد, I came in briefly. And from what I hear, he’s saying that that last shot wasn’t a punch that put him down. I don’t know what my eyes were seeing, or I don’t know what my fists felt, but in my opinion, and I think, if you clearly go to the video, the replay, it was a punch that put him down. It was the uppercut that startedwhich had him backwithdraw and back up. And then it was the overhand right that put him down. هكذا–.
مورا
The overhand right grazed the back of my head. نعم, the overhand right grazed the back of my head, but my ankle was already twisted. It was a tricky shot.
جاكوبس
It could be a graze. It could be whatever you want to say it could be, but it put you down. استمع, let me give my opening statement, please. I just got on the line.
مورا
لكن, it didn’t keep me down. If I was hurt, –I wouldn’t have gotten up.
جاكوبس
حسنا. Allow me to have my opening statement, سيرجيو, please. I just got on the line, brother. Show some respect. I just got on the line. هكذا, my opening statement, سيداتي وسادتي, it is the honor to be back into the ring. I’ve been out for quite some time. The reason we’ve actually been out for so long was because we were trying to get a better opportunity at fighting B.J. سوندرز. بوضوح, that fight took a little longer than anticipated. And this is the reason why this fight is happening. It isn’t because I’ve been avoiding Sergio Mora. I just understand that this fight for my career at this particular point isn’t really going to do anything for me. It’s more going to do anythingmore for Sergio than it would do for me. لكن, me and him have the same management in Al Haymon. هكذا, I can understand why this fight is being made.
لكن, the reasons why he’s saying this fight is being made as far as me ducking him and not wanting to fight him, أعني, that’s absurd. That’s absurd. لكن, I’m just excited nevertheless to be back into the ring. It’s a good time for me to be able to get back in there and have some fun again. I look forward to a very good matchup again I hope. لكن, one question that I do have for Sergio is, in previous interviews, he said that he was going to have a more exciting style and he was tired of being the born fighter he used to be that wasn’t appealing to fans, and he wasn’t going to do much running, this other stuff, stuff that he’s been getting criticized before, he wasn’t going to do that. And now that he says he’s felt the power of myself, he says he’s going to completely switch the game plan. هكذا, my question is, ماذا–why the sudden change? أعني, what’s the difference now? Why are you not going to be more exciting and more appealing now, like you said before?
مورا
I said I was going to be exciting and more aggressive. I didn’t say I was going to be stupid.
جاكوبس
يا, نعم, that is stupid to come andthat will be stupid to come and actually go toe to toe and bang with me. You’re absolutely right. So it’ll be interesting to see the game plan that you have for this coming fight because I just hope it’s not a stinker, واحد. You’re getting a second opportunity at a worldat my world title shot. Please let’s not make it a snoozer. It’s bad enough we’re both receiving a lot of criticism for this fight, but dude, please let’s just make it exciting.

هلا هلا, استمع, I’m the king of criticism. If you can’t take criticism, you don’t belong to be a champion. You don’t belong in the top like that. That’s part of being a world champion is taking all the bullshit from critics and media and everyone else. And if you’re thin-skinned, then you’re not going to hang very much as the world champion.
جاكوبس
حسنا. نعم, يا سيدي. Ready for some questions.
Q
سيرجيو, after that first fight, you said that you felt that, because it was so early in the fight, it was going to be called-be a no contest. Turns out it ultimately ended up being a loss on your record. Do you feel like the fact that it’s been sothat the fight ended in that way, do you feel like an extra layer of motivation to try to win this second fight?
مورا
لا, that blemish on my career isit’s already there. I tried to contest it with the New York Commission. لكن, it got me nowhere. The New York Commission is a mess as we’re all finding out when it comes to the fights and boxing and MMA and everything else. هكذا, I went that route. It didn’t go anywhere. هكذا, I’m going to have that TKO on my record for the rest of my career and the rest of my life. And it’s sad because I don’t want it to be on a technicality. هكذا, does it irk me? إطلاقا. لكن, am I past it? نعم. I just want an opportunity to clear whatever happened. Jacobs said that he dropped me twice. I only fell once. I dropped him once. Round of the year, المصور الرياضي. Second round, I feel I was in control and winning. مع 5 أو 10 seconds left, the injury happens, and I bust my ankle. هكذا, there’s a lot of unanswered questions. And for whatever reason this fight is happening again, I’m going toI’m fully prepared for whatever comes. And I just want toI just want my opportunity. And I’m thankful that I got it.
Q
دانيال, in that–في الجولة الأولى, Sergio did knock you down. You said after the fight ended that you were a little bit careless in that first round. Are you taking a more conservative approach, or are you being a little more careful knowing that Sergio has the capabilities of knocking you down?
جاكوبس
استمع, there’s always opportunities to learn and grow in the sport of boxing. Even with a light-punching guy like Sergio Mora, I learned a valuable lesson that, after I knocked him down and I was going in for the kill, that you still have to be defensive minded, even when you have a guy hurt because I was on the verge of stopping this man. There’s no way around that. I was definitely on the verge of stopping him. لكن, في رأيي, I got a little careless. And the way I had my feet spread, أعني, I just got caught with a real clean shot. It’s nothing I can take away from him. He definitely earned that. لكن, it was a valuable lesson to me and a lesson that I’m sure I won’t make again.
Q
سيرجيو, how was the rehab in trying to get back and healthy? Was there anything that, during that time, you looked at yourself as a fighter and wanted to improve upon for this rematch?
مورا
لا, not as a fighter. The only thing I had in mind was to heal up 100 في المئة. I did everything in my power, in my capability to heal up properly. I did all theI got the best treatment. I tried to go with the best physical therapist and with ice and do all the remedies, all the Mexican remedies that my mom would tell me to do. And I tried to do everything possible to do it. هكذا, finally, أنا–بعد 6 إلى 7 أشهر, I startedlittle by little started putting pressure on it. And I started feeling good and taking ittaking Aleve. And sometimes, I have to take cortisone shots in order for me to go harder and faster. هكذا, I just did everything in my ability, plus prayer. And thank God I’m back.
Q
I don’t know who’s best fit to answer this question, but is there a rubber match clause in the event that Sergio pulls the upset?
مورا
I’m the king of rematches. هكذا, I’ll answer that. I’ve had four rematches. This is going to be my fifth. And I’ve never had a rubber match. I probably deserved a rubber match with Brian Vera. لكن, Texas is just too big and strong for me to beat. هكذا, rubber matches, لا أعرف. سنرى. I got to get the win first.
Q
Are you confident, سيرجيو, in your ability to plant on your ankle?
مورا
إطلاقا. الآن, أنا. There were times within the year that I’ve been off that I questioned it. وأنا 35 سنة الآن. هكذا, everything heals up slower. I can’t fool myself. هكذا, أحيانا, I question it. لكن, الآن, I’m not anymore. I did everything. I put all the pressure, sprinting uphill, sprinting downhill, stopping on a dime, pivoting, twisting. And I feel an ache here and there. لكن, as far as me doing, I’ve done it. هكذا, عقليا, أنا موجود. أنا مستعد.
Q
دانيال, do you feel this fight is a backwards step?
جاكوبس
I absolutely do. أعني, I think it’s just–إلي, this is kind of like a just-stay-busy fight because we weren’t able to get the fight that we actually wanted, for whatever reason. لكن, إلي, I don’t think this does anything for my career. وقال كأنني قبل, we’ve always wanted to move up to bigger and better opposition each time out. This is kind of a step back. And I understand that it left a bitter taste in certain people’s mouths because of the way Sergio Mora lost. لكن, في رأيي, he was on the verge anyway. هكذا, that’s how I look at it. لكن, this is for me an opportunity to kind of quiet the critics and just make the final statement once and for all that I am the better fighter, better boxer.
Hell, I’m better in general inside that square ring. Sergio Mora has nothing in there to stop me, especially come September 9th. I’m in the best shape that I’ve ever been in my life. And he said before that I don’t like to go 12 جولات. أعني, I’ve never said that. أعني, just because I’ve knocked guys out doesn’t mean I don’t like to go 12 جولات. With the Caleb Truax fight, I wanted to go 12 جولات, and I did, and then I stopped him in the 12th round. هكذا, it’s not like I’d just like to go out there and have this false identity like I’m this super big knockout artist. I’m a superb boxer. I learned the fundamentals from the amateur USA boxing. I’ve gone internationally and performed on an international level. أنا أعرف كيف أصنع الصندوق. Sergio Mora is extremely awkward. That’s what allowed him to get where he is now. Take nothing away from him being a world champion. نعم, I have to give him credit for that. لكن, as a–.
مورا
About time you give me some credit. And guess what? أنا–and hey, استمع, واحد. Sorry to interrupt you, but that’s the first time you’ve ever given me credit.
جاكوبس
يا, أنا آسف. I thought I was answering the question. حسنا. I’m going to let you go ahead.
مورا
That’s the first time you’ve ever given me credit, واحد. شكرا جزيلا لكم. شكرا, داني. شكرا.
جاكوبس
يا, حسنا. You’re very welcome. لكن, as I was saying, نعم يا, this is definitely a setback.
Q
It didn’t take long for you to get acquainted the first time around. What are your mindsets? Are you looking to pick up where you left off, or you taking a completely different approach this time around?
مورا
I’m still in shock that he gave me credit. بحث, the first time around, he downplayed and downgraded me as a former world champion. And he said that he wanted to move onto bigger and better things. I just want to touch on something. I’m the best name on Daniel Jacobs–لا, let me take that back. I’m the most accomplished name on Daniel Jacobs’s record.
هكذا, how is he downhow is he going backwards? How is he regressing by fighting me? أنا الأفضل–I’m the most accomplished on his resume. He’s not even top three on mine. I’ve got hall of famers on my resume. I had to beat a world champion, a five-time world champion to become champion. He had to beat a guy Jarrod Fletcher JacobI don’t even know what the hell his name is, Fletcher Jones or whatever it is. هكذا, the bottom line is you’ve got to give me my credit, واحد. هكذا, thank you for giving me that credit. الآن, what was your question, ثانية? أنا آسف.
Q
Are you looking to pick up where you left off, or are you coming in with a totally different mindset?
مورا
جيد, look, I know that I got dropped. I’ve been dropped before. I can get up, and I’m pretty resilient that way. Jacobs took a little longer to get the cobwebs off. هكذا, هو–الآن, he knows that I can punch. I don’t think he’s going to come in as aggressive as he was the first time. If he does, maybe we’ll leave off. That’s going to be up to the champ. The champ wants to start if off, انا بخير. إن لم يكن, if I see himfighting behind a jab, then I’m going to have to go and put the pressure on a little bit.
Q
و, دانيال?
جاكوبس
هكذا, I justI totally feel like he’s just full of it right now. I don’t think he’s going to come forward. He’s even said it in the interview. الآن, he understands and he knows how much power I possess. He’s going to change the game plan. And he’s going to try to take me into what he quotes are deep waters. هكذا, he’s going to try to take me in later rounds, which in my opinion, he has to box, and he has to be on the back foot to do so.
هكذا, في رأيي, I think he’s going to try to make it a snoozer. He’s not going to try to make it exciting and come forward. And it’s just myit’s just up to me to make it an exciting. And I’m going to do what I’ve always done. سوف أتقدم, and I’m going to adjust if I need to make adjustments. And that’s simple. I want to hurt this man. There’s no way around it. I want him to feel and eat his words, clearly. هكذا, I’m going to come in there, and I’m going to try and punch you in your face. It’s plain and simple, سيرجيو. That’s my game approach. لكن, if you want to box–.
مورا
That’s all good. You try to reach my–.
جاكوبس
If you want to go on the back foot–.
مورا
I’m going to be touching that body.
جاكوبس
Hold on, يا سيدي. Hold on, طفل. Hold on, طفل. I’ll let you answer your question. Hold on now. Be respectful. If you wanted to be on the back foot, that’s the game that I can play, أيضا. I have an extreme amateur and professional boxing resume, brother. مثل, we can do this. لكن, the game plan for me, to answer your question, is to go in there and hurt this man, فترة.
Q
سيرجيو, given the fact that Danny has said that this is a backwards step for him, he looks at it as a tune-up fight, didn’t really want to have the rematch, لماذا ا–what do you think it was that actually got you this rematch and I know you wanted very badly?
مورا
آل HAYMON, واضح وبسيط, آل HAYMON. I think no one was campaigning for this rematch, و. And I think a lot of people were surprised that it happened. I certainly was surprised that I got the phone call because, even though I was promised by Al a big fight my first fight back, I didn’t expect it to be for world title versus Daniel Jacobs in a rematch. هكذا, أنا جدا, very thankful to Al Haymon. And honestly, just to–أعني, not to be funny or anything, but if I really have to thank another person, another thing, it’s Twitter because it gives me a voice when I was injured. And I never had that before. I just wish I would’ve started it earlier and had more of a following. هكذا, نعم, I’ve got to thank Twitter, أيضا.
Q
Do you think–أعني, you’ve had your ups and downs. You fought a lot of good names. لكن, you mentioned a little earlier 35 سنة. Do you think this maybe this could be your last chance at a world title?
مورا
نعم, probably. أعني, I can’t be foolish and say that I can moveI can beat Bernard Hopkins. I can’t. I’m not Bernard Hopkins. There’s only special people that could fight in their mid-30s and so on and still be fighting the best. هكذا, even though, if my body hasn’t taken a beating, I’ve been in the game a long time. And the wear and tear from sparring and from running and from the dieting and from all the other stuff, all that takes effect.
لكن, even though I am well preserved, I’m still the age that I am. And the hunger’s still there. هكذا, رقم واحد, if the hunger’s still there, everything else falls into place. هكذا, we’re going to find out in two weeks exactly if the hunger and my body is at the same level.
Q
Were you anxious to just go right back in with Danny in a second fight if you could get the fight, or did you consider a tune-up?
مورا
لا, لا. Great question, و. Me and my team did have that discussion. And we did think about fighting someone else. And I think Alfredo Angulo was a name they offered and were considering. لكن, we know Angulo very well. And we just didn’t feel right taking that fight, especially watching the fight–معركته الأخيرة. لكن, the ankle feels good. And we decided to go straight into this title fight because we weren’t sure we were going to get it again. I think the stars lined up perfectly for it to happen. And Jacobs admits that, أيضا, that he didn’t want to fight me for whatever reasons, and I got this fight thanks to Al Haymon. And that’s it.
Q
What was it that made you decide that, في النهاية, you would in fact give him the rematch, even though it’s clear that it’s not a fight that you want?
جاكوبس
It’s just I understand how it left a bad taste in people’s mouths. هكذا, with the options that we were given, with talking to Al and talking with my team, I guess it just kind of madenot sense, but it just was the right thing to do at the veryat that moment. And I won’t say we looked at it as, مثل, مهلا, this is an easy win or this is an opportunity to make easy money.
مثل, we don’t look at it like that. لكن, we kind of justand we definitely wasn’t forced into the fight. هكذا, that’s another thing that I want to make clear. Al Haymon didn’t say, “هلا هلا, this is going to be what you’re going to do.” هكذا, me and my team came together. And for whatever reasons, we allowed this fight to happen, but we definitely wasn’t forced into it.
Q
هكذا, you mentioned you had some other options that were brought to your attention. What were those other options?
جاكوبس
They just wasn’t–مثل, it wasn’t guys in my opinion at that level that were bigger and better. وقال كأنني قبل, we looked at the whole scene of the middleweight division, and Andy Lee and a couple other guys that names were thrown out there. We were trying to make that fight happen with Lee. I think that fight kind of fell through maybe once or twice. هكذا, we were just like, “هلا هلا, let’s just go with Sergio Mora.The way wethe way it looked and the way we won kind of left a little bit bad taste in people’s mouths. هكذا, it just makes sense to do it.
Q
What is the big fight out there? You areas the WBA’s regular champion, you are the mandatory for Gennady Golovkin. I want to know if that’s a fight that you’ll consider after this?
جاكوبس
إطلاقا. That’s the fight that I want. I want the best out there. We tried to make the fight with B.J. سوندرز. We tried to make the fight with a couple other guys. لكن, it just didn’t work. كريس يوبانك, الابن, was another opportunity for us to fight. لكن, he didn’t want no part. هكذا, even after winning theforgot what title he won because I know I was his mandatory at some point, and he declined. وهكذا, we want to fight the best, point blank, فترة. Triple G is the best, and that’s the guy that we want.
Q
What kind of particular stylistic problems you think you’d give Golovkin that he hasn’t seen yet?
جاكوبس
I definitely believe I would be the toughest test because I believe I would be the victor in that fight. I definitely believe in my skills and my ability. At one point in my career, the only reason why I said I wanted to wait was so I could get 12 rounds so we can go the full distance and know how we can actually feel in a tough fight for 12 جولات. I’ve accomplished that. And then the only thing that was kind of keeping me from making this fight happen earlier was the finance. هكذا, people saying I was ducking or I was doing a whole bunch of this and a whole bunch of that, that’s far from the truth. I just wanted to be compensated accordingly. And that was it. If we can make these fights happen sooner than later, انا كلى لها. لكن, in the same token, I still would like to be compensated accordingly.
Q
Are you confident that you could get a deal done that would be good for the finances?
جاكوبس
I don’t really know too much about that. أعني, لدي فريق عظيم. And I leave all those things up to my team. My thing is to stay ready, to be ready, and to perform at my best when I’m inside the ring. هكذا, whatever the logistics is outside the ring, all I have to do is say, “نعم, أنا مرتاح لذلك. And let’s make the fight.
Q
الآن, I know you’re a pretty even-keeled guy, but has Sergio got under your skin with all the trash talk?
جاكوبس
يا, hell yeah. أعني, not under my skin to where it would affect my game plan or it’ll affect me inside the ring. لا, it’s just some of the things that he’s said or from the pictures that he’s posted, and that’s what he’s supposed to do. And he’s landed an opportunity at fighting me again. لكن, this is an opportunity that I’m looking forward to. And this is probably for me the first personal fight that I’m entering in with mean intention.
Q –
And a question for Sergio. You’ve been around for a long time. You’ve fought a lot of top guys, like Sugar Shane and so forth. Wherehow would you compare Danny to those guys? And how do you think you’lla guy like you who has such a high boxing IQ, how do you think a rematch would help you?
مورا
Sugar Shane and so forth, and Vernon Forrest, two great fighters. بحث, Danny has his amateur pedigree. And he can fight behind the jab, like he says. And he could beand he can fight on his back foot, as he claims. He says he’s gone 12 جولات صعبة. I only seen him go 12 one-sided rounds against a guy named Caleb Truax. Those weren’t tough. He doesn’t know what tough is yet. And he isn’t reallyhe hasn’t experienced what it is to be in there with an all-around championship caliber fighter for 12 جولات. لدي. That’s the difference. That’s the difference.
And I feel that, until he experiences that, he still doesn’t know what it is to be an all-around champion, a champion that’s had to deal with getting knocked down, getting up, bad cuts, being down behind them cards, losing on cards going through the final championship round. These are the experiences you can only dream of and hope of. هكذا, until you experience that, you can’t really say he’s done that. الآن, he still needs to learn.
Q
سيرجيو, do you relish having the kind of opportunity to, as you said, teach somebody to be a fighter?
مورا
إطلاقا. I relish the opportunity to do great things, واحد. And I think that, if you look back at my career, every time I get a big opportunity, I conquer it, or something like the Shane Mosley thing happens where, في الواقع, فزت, and it was a draw. لكن, the big opportunities, I shine, واحد. And this is just something that always needs to happen, always have to take the hard route. That’s been my career, واحد. I’ve never been the A side. I’ve always been the B side that could compete with the A side.
And this is just another example of that. داني, the young champion looking down on me, subordinating me, making me feel like I’m lucky to get this opportunity, I’ve dealt with that my entire career, واحد. It’s nothing new. I know I’m here over and over, time after time for a reason because I’m that fucking good. وهكذا, people recognize and realize that. I’ll never get the credit for it. And that’s fine, as long as I keep getting the opportunities and as long as I become a three-time two-division champ.
Q
Tell us about that, how you approach the fight, what you expect to take place, especially in light of the last two fights ending quickly.
جاكوبس
جيد, I don’t really anticipate or expect anything. Boxing is one of those things where anything can happen at any given moment. My thing is I just want to be ready. And when I prepare inside the gym and I’m in tip-top shape, I’m prepared and ready for anything that will come my way inside that ring, whether it’s the first round or whether it’s the last round. It just so happens that these last couple of fights I’ve had been very exciting first rounders. هكذا, my thing is, as long as I’m able to adjust, I can come and be prepared for anything that comes my way.
Q
What was key in those two fightsto both of those fights starting off with so much activity and so much action?
جاكوبس
I think just getting warmed up properly and the backstage, making sure that the flow was going and that you don’t have to kind of warm up in those first couple rounds. Me and my team do a great joband shout out to my team, على فكرة, who do such a great job with making sure that we’re prepared and ready for each round from the very first to the very end.
Q
And is that going to affect at all your game plan because people have seen those two previous fights, and they’re talking about it. They say, “Maybe this is a guy who is just going to destroy people in the beginning.Is that weighing on your approach at all for this rematch?
جاكوبس
Absolutely not. My MO as a fighter is to be a fluent boxer first. It just so happened that the speed and the power that I possess as well kind of hurt guys, and I’m a really great finisher, where actually, my mentality is to go in there and show my skills. That’s what I love about the [العلم الحلو]. I actually love to get behind my jab and put my combinations together and start to get good movements and good angles. مثل, I love that stuff.
لكن, it just so happens that, when I’m in there with guys and I’m starting to land good shots, and they get hurt, we just have rounds of the year and first round stoppages and early stoppages, so on and so forth. هكذا, I’m just happy I’m able to get the victory and finish strong.
Q
و, سيرجيو, what do you expect? Do you expect this rematch to have this same type of electric start, or how do you prepare for this?
مورا
جيد, we’re going to go back to Danny’s power. He does have power. And you’re born with power. You can’t teach power. You can’t go in the gym and work on power, or else I would’ve done that 20 سنوات. هكذا, he’s blessed with an ability to punch hard with both hands. And he’s always going to make for exciting fights. الآن, he’s also vulnerable because he’s been dropped before. And that’s also on the exciting side. هكذا, whenever it comes to a guy like Danny Jacobs, you never know what you’re going to get. It’s kind of like fighting a guy like Victor Ortiz, even though I think he’s better all around than Victor. Victor’s exciting. He’s a former champion. He’s a power puncher. لكن, you never know what Victor you’re going to get.
هكذا, I think that’s the same thing with Danny, only Victor’s fought better opposition than Danny. هكذا, that’s the difference. أعتقد, لهذه المعركة, لا أعرف, واحد. I really don’t know what I’m going to expect. I didn’t expect to go down in the first round. I was surprised by the punch. It was an awkward punch in from a southpaw angle. I believe his right foot was in front. I took a picture a little too long and held the position, expecting a left hook to come, and instead a right uppercut came, which is awkward. And he calls me awkward. That was an awkward punch. هكذا, نعم, أتعلم? لقد أذهلني. I got up. I shook it off. And he came for the kill, like I knew he would. And I was able to catch him. I think we both learned that we can hurt each other, and we both learned that we both can be sneaky from certain sneaky positions. هكذا, I don’t think it’s going to start off with fireworks, like it did the first time. لكن, I think it’s going to end up fireworks. I don’t know if it’s the second, الثالث, or further down the fight. لكن, that’s what I’m expecting.
Q
And would anybody like to make a prediction for this fight, داني?
جاكوبس
أنا لا تجعل التنبؤات. I don’t like to go in there and have any type of thing going in my head where I have to live up to it. I just like to win. And however I win, however it comes, I’m grateful for it.
مورا
If I’m ready, I go in there to win. And I’m ready for this fight. أنا واثق. I expect a great performance from both of us. And I expect to become a world champion, a two-time world division champion by the end of this fight. هكذا, I’m expecting to win. لا أعرف. لكن, انا ذاهب للفوز.
مارك أبرامز – حسنا. جيد, that’s going to wrap it up. I just want to get everyDaniel and Sergio, just a quick final comment. وبعد ذلك, we’ll see you on fight week. دانيال?
جاكوبس
I just have a lot of people to thank that I would take this time to thank. أولا, I would like to thank my team and everyone involved for allowing me to have such a great camp. They’ve put in the necessary work, كل شخص, team Jacobs, the necessary work that we need to be 100 percent prepared for this fight comeSeptember 9th. I will be proudly representing my Brooklyn Boxing apparel as I’m sporting my trunks and finessing my moves inside the ring.
I want to give a big shout out to Brooklyn Boxing, have been supportive of my whole career. And me being an ambassador, I definitely have to big them up. And Al Haymon, الأهم من ذلك, Al has been taking care of me. I’ve been the first guy that Al has had directly out of the amateurs to a world championship. هكذا, I have to give my hattake my hat off to Al and everyone in our team Haymon. And that’s pretty much it, all the promotors and managers involved with this as well, everyone who has made this possible, and thanks for all the fans for all the continued support. شكرا جزيلا لكم.
Abrams
و, سيرجيو?
مورا
I got to start with Al Haymon because he’s given me not only a second opportunity, الثالث, I’ve already had four opportunities to come back and reinvent myself. And Al Haymon gave me that opportunity. هكذا, I thank Al Haymon. I’ve got to thank my loyal team, my trainer Dean Campos, who’s been with me since the amateurs, [John Montillado], the rest of my team, my cut man Carlos, و [Panda Martinez]. And I want to thank my sponsors, [Snac]. Victor Conte’s onboard for this fight. And I’ve never been a fighter that takes supplement. I’m a guy that just tries to eat right and hydrate. And I notice a difference with supplements. And I do it the scientific way. هكذا, I want to thank the Snac System and Victor Conte. And I want to thank my sponsor Spy Optics. And that’s about it. I want to thank the fans as well formy day-one fans and even my critics, they keep me alive, so thank them, أيضا.
