Mayweather vs. McGregor ** In-Diepte Preview en Analise **

Deur: Tony Penecale

Veg of Farce? Toe Floyd Mayweather Jr. afgetree in 2015 met miljoene dollars in sy sak en 'n onbesmette 49-0 rekord, daar was 'n stortvloed bespiegelings oor of hy ooit na die ring sou terugkeer. ’n Gewilde idee was sy ego, saam met sy flambojante leefstyl, sal nie toelaat dat Mayweather lank wegbly nie. Wanneer een van die jong weltergewig vooruitsigte–moontlik Keith Thurman of Errol Spence–konsensus geword het #1 weltergewig in die wêreld, Mayweather sou jeuk om terug te kom en sy troon terug te eis.

 

Egter, dit het geblyk 'n boks buitestander te wees wat Mayweather terug in die ring getrek het, in die persoon van die brutale en kranige UFC-ster, Conor "The Notorious" McGregor. Bekend vir sy treffende vermoë en vreeslose houding, McGregor het boks se geldkoning uitgeroep en hom teruggejaag met 'n High Noon-kragmeting in Las Vegas.

 

Kan hierdie Mixed Martial Arts-kampioen suksesvol sy boksdebuut maak en een van die beste boksers in die geskiedenis verslaan? Of sal Mayweather bewys dat daar 'n verskil is om 'n voortreflike doelskieter in 'n gevegskunsomgewing te wees as in 'n bokswedstryd? Veg of Farce? Ons sal uitvind in hierdie Las Vegas "Superfight"!

STYLE

 

Mayweather:

'n Suiwer bokser met buitengewone vinnigheid en instinkte wat alles goed doen met 'n arsenaal wat 'n klap insluit, akkurate regterhand, en linkerhaak wat verdubbel en verdriedubbel kan word met geweldige effek. Gebruik fynbewegings om teenstanders te vries en ponsbane oop te maak. Druk sy ken goed agter sy skouer om met stampe te rol. Selfs op die toue, hy is 'n moeilike teiken om 'n stewige hou op te kry. Hy het nie groot slaankrag nie. Die meeste van sy onderbrekingsoorwinnings kom daarvan om sy teenstanders uit te slaan en uit te klas terwyl hy selde skoon uitklophoue behaal het.

 

McGregor:

McGregor boks vanuit 'n suidpoot-houding, lig op sy voete en met behulp van laterale beweging, op soek na openinge vir sy donderende linkerhand. Terwyl hulle onder gemengde gevegskuns reëls meeding, McGregor het dikwels wegskramte en worsteling vermy, eerder om sy spoed en krag vanuit 'n treffende houding te gebruik, dikwels met vernietigende gevolge.

 

STERK

 

Mayweather:

* Ervaring – Boks is sedert sy kinderdae in Mayweather se bloed. Het 'n uitgebreide amateurloopbaan voltooi deur die bronsmedalje in die '96 Olimpiese Spele te wen. Hy het die afgelope tyd suksesvol op kampioenskapsvlak meegeding 19 jaar, alle style in die gesig staar en te verslaan.

 

* Kondisionering – Mayweather is ’n fiksheidsfreak met ’n wonderlike werksetiek wanneer dit by opleiding kom. Min vegters druk hulself soveel as Mayweather in die gimnasium, doen selfs middernagtelike opleidingsessies. Dit is duidelik in die ring wanneer sy stamina hom in die laat rondes dra.

 

* Ring Generaalskap – Mayweather ken elke duim van die ring en hoe om 'n geveg te beheer. Hy weet wanneer om aan te val, wanneer om te boks, wanneer om die hitte te verhoog, en wanneer om te kus. Mayweather besit die ring wanneer hy daar is. Selfs die seldsame kere wanneer hy in gevegte verstom was, hy kon vinnig tot rus kom en die dreigement onderdruk.

 

McGregor:

* Vreesloos – McGregor is ’n baie selfversekerde en braaf vegter. Hy het geen vrees getoon teen sommige gevaarlike MMA-vegters nie en het geen probleme gehad om hulle uit te tart nie, sy hande laat val, en dan sy dapper optrede te ondersteun.

 

* Onortodoks – Nie net is McGregor 'n suidpoot nie, hy is 'n uiters onortodokse suidpoot. Hy kom aggressief op sy tone in en skiet sy slae uit alle hoeke, hoofsaaklik sy handtekening linkerhand. Hy sal dit reguit of in 'n lusvormige manier van 'n afstand af gooi, en selfs in 'n kort kap mode terwyl in naby.

 

* Power – McGregor se treffende vaardighede en krag is in die UFC geprys en hy word wyd erken as een van die top-aanvallers in die wêreld van gemengde gevegskuns. Hy dra donderende krag in sy linkerhand en het uitklophoue in behaal 18 van sy 21 oorwinnings.

 

SWAKHEDE

 

Mayweather:

* Veroudering – Mayweather het dalk 'n onberispelike rekord, maar Father Time is nog nooit verslaan nie. Mayweather was meer platvoet in onlangse gevegte en hy is nou verby 40 jaar oud. Hy was nie so skerp in sy laaste paar wedstryde nie en is tevrede om teenstanders te neutraliseer en uit te wys.

 

* Onaktiwiteit – Dit is Mayweather se eerste geveg in byna twee jaar. Sedert sy oorwinning oor Oscar De la Hoya in Mei 2007, Mayweather het net 'n totaal van geveg 11 keer.

 

* Ponskrag – Die meeste van Mayweather se oorwinnings het gekom van 'n opeenhoping van vuishoue. Die gewone resultaat is dat die skeidsregter of opponerende hoek die geveg stop om verdere straf te voorkom. Nieteenstaande sy plofbare uitklophou van Victor Ortiz, dit is skaars om te sien dat Mayweather 'n wedstryd met een vuishou voltooi, dateer uit sy dae as 'n 130 lb bokser.

 

McGregor:

* Bokservaring – Ten spyte daarvan dat hy in gemengde gevegskuns meegeding het en ’n reputasie as ’n dominante doelskieter gehad het, daar is 'n groot gaping in die tegniek en vaardigheidsvlak van professionele boks, en McGregor is duidelik 'n beginner wanneer dit by tradisionele boks kom.

 

* Maklik om te slaan – Deur sy loopbaan in gemengde gevegskuns, verdediging was nooit McGregor se sterk punt nie en hy het 'n aantal skoon slae in sommige van daardie gevegte geneem. Berigte van sommige van sy sparringsessies het opgeduik wat sê dat McGregor se verdediging 'n aanspreeklikheid kan wees.

 

* Instinkte – McGregor het nie tradisionele boksinstinkte nie weens sy gebrek aan deelname aan die sport. Dinge wat natuurlik vir Mayweather en ander opgeleide boksers kom, sal nie so natuurlik kom nie “Mystic Mac,” en hy sal moet konsentreer en fokus daarop om nie sy bene of elmboë te gebruik soos hy in die gemengde gevegskunswêreld sou doen nie.

 

VORIGE VER

 

Mayweather:

(09-12-15) Mayweather het van sy geskiedkundige oorwinning oor Manny Pacquiao gekom toe hy teen die verlepte Andre Berto afgereken het.. Die geveg was 'n teleurstelling met Mayweather wat maklik na 'n eenparige besluit oorwinning in wat aangekondig is as sy uittrede-wedstryd.

 

McGregor:

Dit is McGregor se professionele boksdebuut.

 

3 Beste vertonings

 

Mayweather:

* Diego Corrales (1/20/01) – Kenners was verskeur oor wie om in hierdie een te kies, met baie wat na Corrales leun om met KO te wen. Mayweather het hom nooit in die geveg toegelaat nie, het hom vyf keer platgeslaan voordat die geveg in die 10de ronde gestaak is.

 

* Arturo Gatti (6/25/05) – Hoewel Mayweather ’n stewige weddery-gunsteling was, baie het verwag dat Gatti dinge vir Mayweather moeilik sou maak. Dit het nooit gebeur nie, want Mayweather het Gatti in die 1ste rondte onderdruk en 'n strawwe loesing toegedien voordat Gatti se hoek die geveg gestop het na ses eensydige rondtes.

 

* Ricky Hatton (12/8/07) – Hatton was onoorwonne toe hy aan die geveg deelgeneem het en het 'n wedstrydplan van konstante druk opgestel om Mayweather uit te dra. Na 'n paar ongemaklike rondtes, Mayweather kon sy reeks vind en oorneem, Hatton twee keer in die 10de ronde te vloer en 'n stilstand afgedwing.

 

McGregor:

* Eddie Alvarez (11/12/16 - UFC 205) – Word beskou as die mees dominante en volledige oorwinning in McGregor se loopbaan. Hy het sy voetwerk gebruik om Alvarez op 'n afstand te hou en takedowns te vermy. McGregor het Alvarez gestraf, hom twee keer vroeg platgeslaan, en hom dan uittart in die 2nd rond met sy hande agter sy rug. Kort daarna, 'n kombinasie van vier vure het Alvarez in 'n nederlaag verpletter.

 

* José Aldo (12/12/15 - UFC 194) – ’n Spoelteller-linkerhand van McGregor was al wat nodig was om Aldo uit te slaan, om hom op sy gesig te laat val en die oorwinning in 'n ongelooflike aan te teken 13 sekondes.

 

* Diego Brandao (07/19/14 - UFC 46) – McGregor het vroeg ’n afslaan behaal en toe sy linkerhand begin land. Vier minute in, McGregor kon die ring afsny en Brandao met 'n linkerhand vloer, dwing a 1st ronde stilstand.

 

 

KEYS oorwinning

 

Mayweather:

* Moenie dat McGregor enige selfvertroue kry nie

 

* Gebruik uitstekende bokservaring om hoeke te skep

 

* Time McGregor jaag en land reguit regterhande

 

McGregor:

* Verander sy aanval na die kop en lyf

* Dwing Mayweather teen die toue en maak die afstand toe

 

* Rof Mayweather op en dwing hom om kalmte te verloor

 

VRAE EN ANTWOORDE

 

* Waarom word dit met streng boksreëls betwis? Eenvoudige antwoord is geld. Om mee te ding deur boksreëls te gebruik, die wedstryd sal onder die Mayweather Promotions "Money Team"-vaandel wees. Die geld van die lewendige hek, advertensies, betaal-per-kyk-inkomste, ens. sal gaan na die vegter se take-home pay. Om te kompeteer onder reëls vir gemengde gevegskuns sal dan onder die UFC-vaandel val waar Dana White sekerlik 'n groot deel van die geld sal hou.

* Sal die 8oz handskoene 'n impak hê? McGregor het aan gemengde gevegskuns deelgeneem met vingerlose 4oz-handskoene. Die oorspronklike plan was om 10oz bokshandskoene te gebruik, maar daar is ooreengekom om eerder 8oz handskoene te gebruik. Dit bevoordeel Mayweather steeds, want hy is gewoond daaraan om swaarder handskoene te gebruik.

 

*Wie het die meeste om te verloor? Mayweather, sonder twyfel. Buite McGregor se span, sy mees lojale aanhangers, en beginnergeveg-aanhangers, meeste kenners verwag 'n oorheersende Mayweather-oorwinning. Die kans word in sy guns in 'n tradisionele bokswedstryd gestapel. As McGregor in 'n kort geveg verloor, dit is 'n morele oorwinning en 'n skewe verlies, al het sy ego gekneus, sou verwag word gegewe hul onderskeie ervaring. As Mayweather verloor of sukkel in 'n afsluiting, omstrede oorwinning, sy nalatenskap sou onherstelbaar aangetas word.

 

* Wat gebeur as McGregor MMA-aanvalle gebruik? Mayweather en sy span is deeglik wanneer hulle 'n gevegskontrak opstel. Sy kontrak toe hy teen Manny Pacquiao geveg het, het gelyk soos 'n Herman Melville-roman. As McGregor enige onwettige martial arts taktiek probeer, hy sal sekerlik 'n groot stuk verbeur, indien nie almal nie, van wat na raming minstens 'n betaaldag van $75 miljoen dollar is.

 

* Sal Mayweather meer aggressief veg? Oor die afgelope dekade, Mayweather het sy bestaan ​​gemaak deur sy verdedigings- en teenslaanvermoëns te gebruik om sy gevaarlike teenstanders te neutraliseer en op punte te wen. Hy lyk skaars soos die briljante vegter wat teenstanders vroeg in sy loopbaan verblind en oorweldig het. Terwyl hy nog vroeg 'n Mayweatheresque verdedigingstrategie sal gebruik, die openings wat McGregor bied en die begeerte om sy teëstander van braggadocios te verneder, sal daartoe lei dat Mayweather meer op sy vuiste sit en soek na kraggeleenthede vir die kop en lyf.

 

* Sal die geveg lelik word? Nie een vegter is bang om die arrogante skurkrol te speel of om die reëls 'n bietjie te buig nie. In sparringsessies, McGregor is gesien hoe hy pakslae na die agterkop kry en stoot. Mayweather is gekritiseer omdat hy Victor Ortiz met 'n vuishou uitgeslaan het toe Ortiz probeer om verskoning vra vir 'n oortreding. Die teenwoordigheid op Mayweather se span van Roger Mayweather en Leonard Ellerbe as brandbare elemente dra by tot die potensiaal vir drama. ’n Lelike geveg wat eindig met enige vegter wat gediskwalifiseer is, is nie ter sprake nie. Skeidsregter Robert Byrd sal sy hande vol hê om die aksie te beheer as foute begin voorkom.

 

* Wat gebeur volgende? As die geveg vermaaklik blyk te wees, naby, of omstrede, 'n rematch is moontlik. As McGregor die ontsteltenis afhaal, Mayweather sal beslis 'n herwedstryd versoek. As die geveg 'n noue Mayweather-oorwinning is, sy reputasie kan genoeg geskaad word dat hy 'n herwedstryd aanvra. As die geveg eindig met 'n oorheersende Mayweather-oorwinning, McGregor kan 'n ryker man en 'n groter crossover-ster teruggaan na die UFC. Mayweather beloof om weer uit te tree, maar waarskynlik net totdat hy weer uitgedaag word vir die volgende ultraryk geveg. Hy het ook te kenne gegee dat hy McGregor in die UFC Octagon kan uitdaag, al het hy op 'n onlangse konferensie aan verslaggewers gesê dit sal sy laaste wees “veg.”

 

PENECALE VOORSPELLING

 

Dit sal 'n hewige en elektriese atmosfeer wees soos die vegters die ring binnegaan, en dit sal opbou na 'n crescendo tydens 'n intense staar af. Soos Robert Byrd deur die instruksies gaan, McGregor sal in Mayweather se gesig inspring en probeer om te begin kapitaliseer op die intimidasiefaktor. Mayweather, normaalweg selfversekerd en ontspanne, sal reageer met 'n ysige glans.

 

McGregor sal uit sy hoek spring vir ronde een, beweeg vorentoe op sy tone en swaai sy arms op 'n onortodokse manier. Mayweather sal aan sy linkerkant beweeg weg van McGregor se kraghand as McGregor die aksie druk en vorentoe beweeg met 'n paar wilde linkerhande. McGregor sal nog 'n wilde links gooi wat te kort skiet en dan probeer om Mayweather in die toue te bult en hom met linkerhande knyp.. Mayweather sal teen die toue beklink en McGregor sal aan die binnekant probeer skeur, gebruik sy skouers as 'n wapen, wat die eerste waarskuwing van Robert Byrd regverdig. Soos die klok lui 'n slordige einde 1st ronde, McGregor sal saam met Mayweather kaak terwyl hulle na hul onderskeie hoeke terugstap.

 

Vir die eerste helfte van die 2nd ronde, die patroon sal voortgaan met Mayweather wat matador speel vir McGregor se bulstormloop en wilde linkerhande. Sowat 'n minuut in die strofe, terwyl McGregor nog een van sy vorderings begin, Mayweather sal na links draai en 'n spoel regterhand land, veroorsaak dat die sweet van McGregor se kop afspuit. Mayweather sal sy voete sit, rol sy skouers, en vuur nog 'n een-twee kombinasie in die middel af, maak 'n steek met sy steek en gooi nog 'n regterhand, wat weer spoel land.

 

Begin in die 3rd ronde, Mayweather sal sy oorheersing begin beweer. McGregor sal begin besef dat die beste boksvermoë in die wêreld van gemengde gevegskuns nie sukses in die bokswêreld waarborg nie. Die vinnigste NFL-lynspeler is steeds uit sy liga wanneer hy teen Usain Bolt gejaag het. Mayweather se natuurlike vermoë en ervaring sal skyn as hy na goeddunke met regte hande begin land, en McGregor sal die effekte wys met swelling en verkleuring onder sy linkeroog.

 

Die ongelykheid tussen talent en ervaring sal duidelik wees soos die wedstryd vorder in die 4ste en 5ste rondes. Mayweather sal gemaklik wees om in die sak te staan ​​en McGregor na willekeur met regte hande te slaan. Terwyl die regterhand sy hou van keuse teen sy suidpoot-teenstander sal wees, Mayweather sal ook voorloop met verskeie linkerboontjies, land sy pakslae uit 'n duiselingwekkende verskeidenheid van hoeke. Die einde van die 5ste rond sal 'n vinnig-vermoeiende McGregor op sy stoel sien sak

 

Die 6ste rondte sal 'n straf saak wees, soortgelyk aan Mayweather s'n 2005 disseksie van Arturo Gatti. Mayweather sal die huis vir sy regterhande gevind het en sal voortgaan om hulle skerp te land. Hy sal ook die steek steek, so wanneer McGregor op die vals byt en wegdraai om sy ken te beskerm, Mayweather sal die pons na die liggaam dryf voordat hy oor die bokant na die kop terugkom. ’n Linkerbo-snit sal McGregor se knieë knyp en nog ’n regterhand by die klok sal hom laat wankel, stuur hom terug na sy hoek.

 

Terwyl McGregor op sy stoel sit, sy linkeroog amper toe geswel, en bloed wat uit sy neus vloei, sy hoek sal besluit om hul vegter van bykomende straf te red en die geveg te stop. Mayweather sal uit sy stoel opstaan ​​en hom verheug oor sy oorwinning.

 

Die wenner deur 6ste ronde TKO is FLOYD “MONEY” MAYWEATHER JR!!!!

Hier is wat die deelnemers moes Donderdag sê:
FLOYD Mayweather
I’ve been here before and I know what it takes. It’s my same old routine but I’m older now so I have to let the body rest a lot more. Met ouderdom kom wysheid. When I was a lot younger I would just train and train and never let myself recuperate. When I come back from resting I come back rejuvenated and with a lot more spark.
This isn’t just a fight; this is an event. We both owe the fans and everyone tuning in a lot of excitement. That’s what we’re there to give them.
I know I’m going to face a warrior. It’s not for me to worry about what he does on a day-to-day basis. I have to worry about what I have to go out there and do. I have to execute the game plan. I’m not going to overlook him. That’s why I’m in here working extremely hard.
When it’s all said and done it comes down to the two competitors. My dad can give me a brilliant game plan but he can’t get in there and fight for me. Same for Conor and his team. It doesn’t matter who the crowd’s rooting for, it’s two men in there.
This training camp has been a lot different. I’ve spent some time in Miami and in Los Angeles training. I’ve been pushed really hard by the young guys in camp. I don’t need to post every workout video because I’ve been around this sport a long time and everyone knows what I can do.
On paper we know he’s taller and has a long reach. He has youth on his side. People say that he has power on his side. I know that ring IQ and experience are in my favor. I have the fight knowledge on my side. We both have advantages.
I know he’s going to come out and try to switch stances. He’ll come out southpaw then go the other way. But all that does is burn energy. Then I’m going to give him a look and give him some knowledge, and we’ll see what happens.
Conor feels it’s not going to go past four rounds and I don’t think it’s going the distance. We’re both confident in our skills and we’ll see who gets it done.
My opponent is always confident, but it’s different being in there with Floyd Mayweather. They realize that this is real. But for me, it’s just another day. That’s the mentality that has allowed me to stay undefeated.
It’s been great to be in a position as a promoter to give knowledge to young fighters. It’s one of my ultimate goals to take a young fighter and make them a household name. I want to take fighters to the next level.
GERVONTA DAVIS
I’m feeling great. Being in the same ring and on the undercard of Floyd’s fight is amazing. I’ve worked hard to get to this point and I’m ready to put on a great show on Augustus 26.
Training has been sharp. I’ve been stopping a lot of guys in training. I can’t wait to get in the ring and give the fans a big knockout.
Being on this card has been a big motivation in training. It feels great and I’m truly blessed to be in this position. I think the excitement that this card brings will be great for the sport of boxing. I’m ready to shine.
I know I have a tough undefeated opponent who’s going to come in and try to take my belt and I have to take care of business. He has some decent power so I think it’s going to be an exciting fight.
I’ve accomplished a lot at a young age. It’s all because of the hard work that I’ve put in for my entire life. I don’t complain, I just keep working every day.
I’m ready to take full advantage of this chance I have. It’s just one step on a long road I see to the top of this sport.
JACK Badou
Everything is great in training camp. I’ve been in training for about seven weeks getting ready for this matchup. I’m excited and happy to be a part of such a big event.
I think this weight is going to be better for me. I’m going to have more power. I’ll be more athletic and style-wise I prefer to fight bigger guys. I can use my speed, but I also like to go inside and break my opponent down. It’s harder if I have to chase them, but the big guys are going to be right there.
Cleverly has a high work rate and he’s very tough. He’s going to come to fight. That’s what we want. It’s a good first fight for me at this weight.
I’m excited to work hard these next two weeks and get to fight night. He’s been in some good fights but I’m different than anyone he’s faced. I’ll show how my skills translate to light heavyweight.
It’s really a blessing to be in this position. I’m happy because a lot of other fighters don’t get to be on this stage. I’m so thankful to my whole team. I won’t let the fans down and onAugustus 26, I’m coming to steal the show.
I’ve done everything right to get to this point. It’s an honor to be in this position. I just have to take care of business.
ANDREW TABITI
This is a huge deal to me. Floyd Mayweather is the biggest star in boxing and to be a part of everything that’s going on is a dream come true.
I was really happy when I found out that I’d be fighting on this card. There aren’t really words for how blessed I am to be in this position.
“Hierdie stryd beteken baie vir my. This is a chance for me to become the American face of cruiserweights just like Steve Cunningham was. I’m taking this very seriously and I have great respect for Steve Cunningham, but this is my time to take it.
I’m ready to be a fresh face in the cruiserweight division. I’m going to give it everything I have. I’m humbled by this experience and I’m going to take advantage of it.
I can’t wait to open the show. There’s a little added pressure being at the beginning of the PPV but I’m going to embrace it and put on a great performance.
LEONARD Ellerbe, Uitvoerende hoof van Mayweather Promotions
Floyd is a lot wiser now. He’s gotten smarter with age. He’s a young man who has an incredible vision and I have a great deal of respect for everything he’s done.
The older you get, the harder it is to get things going in training. It’s taken Floyd a while to get in a groove, but he’s in a groove now.
All of these records being broken are because of Floyd Mayweather. He’s been innovative and he always thinks outside the box. That’s why he’s had such tremendous success.
We’ve been able to generate a great deal of interest in new avenues and bring Floyd to even more casual fans because of the boxing and MMA worlds colliding. This is going to be one of the biggest nights in sports entertainment history.
Both guys are looking to knock each other out. I believe Conor McGregor when he says that he’s looking to knock Floyd out in the first four rounds. He hasn’t shown me anything to make me think differently. Floyd usually just goes and does his thing, but with some things that have happened recently, I think Floyd really wants to get him out of there.

CURRENT & FORMER WELTERWEIGHT CHAMPIONS WEIGH-IN ON KELL BROOK vs. ERROL SPENCE IBF 147-POUND WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP THIS SATURDAY LIVE ON SHOWTIME®

 

Hall of Famer Sugar Ray Leonard, Keith Thurman, Danny Garcia, Shawn Porter & More Discuss The Latest In Series Of Welterweight Blockbusters

 

Showtime KAMPIOENSKAP boks® Live by 5:15 namiddag. EN/2:15 namiddag. PT From Bramall Lane In Sheffield, Engeland

 

NEW YORK (Mei 23, 2017) – IBF Welterweight World Champion Kell Brook and undefeated rising star Errol Spence face off Saterdag woon op Showtime (5:15 namiddag. EN/2:15 namiddag. PT) in the latest in a series of significant welterweight matchups between the best fighters in one of boxing’s deepest divisions.

 

Six of the top eight welterweights in the world* will have fought in the first five months of 2017 – all on SHOWTIME or CBS – as a de facto tournament continues in the 147-pound class to determine the No. 1 fighter in a division long controlled by the retired Floyd Mayweather.

*Source: Transnational Boxing Rankings

 

WBA and WBC Welterweight World Champion Keith Thurman unified the titles on Maart 4 with a split-decision victory over Danny Garcia in a rare matchup of undefeated champions. Lamont Peterson picked up the secondary WBA Regular title on Februarie. 18, en op April 22 Shawn Porter knocked out Andre Berto to become the mandatory challenger to Thurman’s WBC belt. The remaining welterweight champion, Manny Pacquiao, is set to defend his WBO title against Jeff Horn on Julie 2.

 

Now it’s Brook and Spence’s turn to take center stage in boxing’s glamour division.

 

Saterdag in Sheffield, Engeland, Spruit (36-1, 25 Uitklophoue) will make the fourth defense of the IBF belt he won via majority decision over Porter in 2014. The 31-year-old, wat nog nooit platgeslaan, will be the decided hometown favorite in front of what is expected to be 25,000-plus fans in the first world title fight in the 162-year history of Bramall Lane.

 

The 27-year-old Spence (21-0, 18 Uitklophoue) has long been considered one of boxing’s most prized prospects. The IBF’s No. 1 contender has knocked out eight straight opponents and has improved as his level of opposition has risen – his last six opponents held an impressive combined record of 151 wins against just eight losses. The Dallas resident travels abroad for this long-awaited title opportunity as he attempts to become the first American to dethrone an Englishman on British soil in nearly a decade.**

 

With both Spence and Brook affirming their intention to unify the division after Mei 27, see below for what legendary Hall of Famer Sugar Ray Leonard and current top welterweights have to say about Saterdag se IBF title matchup.

 

SUGAR RAY LEONARD – Former Undisputed Welterweight World Champion

I’m really excited about this fight in particular, mainly because both fighters have to be on their A-game. I know there is talk about Kell’s eye surgery being a psychological problem, but from personal experience, I don’t see that being the case. I never thought about my eye once the doctor gave me the green light.

 

“To ask me who is going to win this fight, I have my favorite in Errol Spence. Maar, based on the each fighter’s physical artillery, one punch can turn the tables around. Dit gesê, I am going to sit back and watch a great night of boxing.”

 

KEITH THURMAN – Unified WBA & WBC Welterweight World Champion

“This is an interesting fight. I have not followed Kell too much, but I have obviously seen Errol fight in the U.S. Errol is a tough, young fighter who is just getting into the public’s eye, and Kell obviously has the strength of the British crowd on his side.

 

“It should be a tough fight that really speaks to the strength of the welterweight division. Both fighters are men that I would be open to fighting as I continue to unify the division in 2018. As a fight fan, let’s see what’s ‘Special’ about Kell Brook, and we’ll see if Errol Spence can show us he’s ‘The Truth.’ It should be a great fight and I’ll be watching.”

 

DANNY GARCIA – Former Welterweight World Champion

I think this is a 50/50 stryd. I think the person with the better game plan is going to win. There is a lot of pressure to go into someone’s backyard like Spence is doing, and he’s never faced a fighter in his prime before like Brook. It is definitely a test for him and a big step up in competition. If he is ready, he can do it. He just has to go in there and stay focused.

 

The welterweight division is the best division in boxing. I still feel like I am one of the best welterweights in the world even though I came up short. I never thought I would say a loss would make me stronger because I didn’t see myself losing. I want my titles back and to be seen as the best in the best division.

 

SHAWN PORTER – Former Welterweight Champion & Current WBC No. 1 Contender

“I’m glad Errol is getting his title shot, and I’m happy he’s going to England for it. I’m obviously pulling for the American. Errol is a phenomenal athlete and a great boxer. I think he’s ready to show the world something, but Kell is right up there in that top tier of welterweights. People who tune in should be thrilled. I know I’m looking forward to it.

 

“The welterweight division is awesome, top to bottom. We’re right where we need to be and should be. Boxing returning back to the masses with PBC came at the perfect time for me and the rest of the top welterweights. There are so many of us capable of winning a title right now.”

 

LAMONT PETERSON – WBA (gereelde) Welterweight World Champion

“This is going to be a tough fight, but I think Errol should win. At least I’m pulling for Errol to win. He’s got to overcome the idea that there will probably be 30,000 people cheering against him, so he has to show the judges that he deserves to win.

 

“Brook is a good fighter and is going to bring his best, but I think Errol, in the end, is the better fighter. But he will have to prove it.

 

The welterweight division is one of the best in boxing right now. We’ve got a lot of good fighters in their prime making the division strong. And guys are willing to fight each other. We are seeing the kind of fights the fans want to see. If this keeps up it could bring boxing back to where it was in the days when Sugar Ray Leonard, Roberto Duran, Thomas Hearns and Marvin Hagler all fought each other. So it’s really good for boxing right now.

 

**Timothy Bradley dethroned another Sheffield native, Junior Witter, in 2008 in Nottingham.

BROOKLYN (April 23, 2017) - Shawn Porter scored a ninth round stoppage of Andre Berto to become the WBC’s mandatory challenger to unified welterweight champion Keith Thurman in the main event of SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING, presented by Premier Boxing Champions, Saterdag night on SHOWTIME from Barclays Center in Brooklyn.

VIDEO: http://s.sho.com/2pS68zi

 

With the convincing victory, Porter potentially earns a rematch with Thurman, who he narrowly lost to last June in a 2016 Fight of the Year candidate at Barclays Center, die huis van BROOKLYN boks ™.

 

The welterweight matchup was a rough and tumble affair from the opening bell. Dra (27-2-1, 17 Uitklophoue) barreled forward to smother the offense of Berto (31-5, 24 Uitklophoue), pounding Berto’s body at close range. A deep gash opened over Porter’s left eye from an accidental headbutt in the second, and another opened over his right eye just two rounds later. Porter’s constant aggressiveness and effective body work seemed to frustrate Berto, who struggled to stay off the ropes.

 

An odd series of events unfolded in the opening minute of the ninth round. With Berto unsteady on his feet following another clash of heads, Porter pounced and floored the former champ with a left hook for his second knockdown of the fight. Berto got up, but Porter continued to connect with Berto against the ropes and referee Mark Nelson waved off the contest at 1:31. Teen die tyd van die oponthoud, Porter had out-landed Berto 60-12 over the final two rounds.

 

“I have to clean up those head butts,” Porter said. “We tried to use the whole ring, but sometimes in the heat of the battle stuff happens. I’m a fighter and Mr. Berto is a fighter as well, those head butts were just the two of us going in and fighting.

 

“I thought I fought smart vanaand. I thought I picked my punches well. There were times where I smothered my shots, but there were also times where I smothered him. He has a dangerous uppercut but we had a great game plan. This was a just very hard fought battle by both of us and I’m blessed to get the victory.”

 

Na afloop van die stryd, Berto admitted that Porter’s aggressiveness and the accidental headbutts frustrated him.

 

“I have to give him credit, but he’s a rough fighter,” Berto said. “He has great skills but, op dieselfde tyd, he was trying to be rough and trying to handle me anyway he could. I got a lot of headbutts, and he did too. Shawn’ is a tough competitor. We had a good competitive fight until the headbutts got to be a little too much for me. But I thought it was a really good fight before that.”

 

Na afloop van die stryd, SHOWTIME Sports reporter Jim Gray asked Thurman, who was ringside for the eliminator, if he would grant Porter a rematch.

 

“His team was adamant about the rematch and now he’s fought his way to earning that,” Thurman said. “We just need to sit down and talk about. Hy is honger, you see the way he fights, it could be a great fight again.”

 

Answered Porter: “I was just up here wishing he said yes – that’s the fight I want next.”

 

Jermell Charlo defended his WBC Super Welterweight World Championship in dominant fashion with a devastating sixth-round knockout of mandatory challenger Charles Hatley in the co-main event of SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING.

 

Charlo (29-0, 14 Uitklophoue) landed the crisper shots from the opening bell, using a sharp left jab to set up a remarkably efficient straight right. The Houston native Charlo, the younger twin of undefeated former 154-pound champion Jermall, floored Hatley (26-2-1, 18 Uitklophoue) midway through the third with a textbook left-right combo that stunned his fellow Texan.

 

Charlo’s striking precision continued in fourth and fifth, before an onslaught of punches and a perfectly timed right to the chin sent Hatley falling face-forward to the canvas. Referee Harvey Dock didn’t hesitate and instantly waved off the fight at :36 with Hatley out cold on the canvas.

 

The accuracy of Charlo’s jab was telling – he landed his jab at a 31 percent clip to set up his power shots, which connected at an impressive 52 persent. Algehele, Charlo landed 42 percent of his total punches over nearly six full rounds of prizefighting.

 

“I used that jab to set up the right hand,” Charlo said. “I knew Charles Hatley goes down and he gets back up – he’s a warrior – and I knew I had to get in there and be a lion.

 

Hatley was moving around a lot. He was trying to engage and I tried to tell him to come fight. When he finally got in there, that’s when I got him out. I’m the champ so I have to continue to fight my mandatory. They got a guy named Jarret Hurd that took my brother’s title – we could unify.”

 

Amanda Serrano became the first women and the first Puerto Rican to win world titles in five weight divisions with an eighth-round TKO of Dahiana Santana to capture the vacant WBO Women’s Bantamweight World Championship in the featured bout of SHOWTIME BOXING on SHO EXTREME.

 

Serrano (32-1-1, 24 Uitklophoue) was the aggressor from the opening bell, moving forward and attacking with precision as Santana (35-9, 14 Uitklophoue) backed up and ate a steady diet of counter shots. Santana was deducted a point for clinching in the fourth, and had visible welts above both eyes following the seventh.

 

Serrano was connecting at an almost 3-1 power punch ratio when referee Benjy Esteves stepped-in to stop the bout at 1:14 of the eighth round.

 

“It means everything to me. We worked so hard. We worked hard for this moment,” Serrano said. “To be a five division world champion is amazing. To be the first female and first Puerto Rican is amazing.

 

“I’m so proud to be a Puerto Rican. I’m so proud to be a SHOWTIME fighter. I’m just so happy for this moment. Just to be a five-division world champion, I could retire today and it’d be the happiest moment of my life. I’m just getting started. I hope I’m back again.”

 

In the opening bout of SHOWTIME BOXING on SHO EXTREME, Jose Miguel Borrego (12-0, 11 Uitklophoue) knocked out a game John Delperdang (10-3, 9 Uitklophoue) by 2:07 of the seventh in a scheduled eight-round welterweight contest.

 

Borrego, who landed his uppercut at will throughout the bout, geland 229 power shots at a more than 50 percent clip in the action-packed bout.
