A tough Mexican-American from Chicago, Granados enters this fight on a five-bout winning streak, including his impressive stoppage over then unbeaten top contenderАмір я в листопаді 2015. Зовсім недавно, the 27-year-old dominated Аріель Васкес over eight rounds in July. With a win over Broner, Granados can position himself for his first career world title shot.
Below are excerpts from the interview:
MARK KRIEGEL: “What does this fight represent to you?"
АДРІАН Гранадос: “Cubs just won. This is my own World Series, ви знаєте. It took me this long to finally get a big fight, but I got it. This is going to be my coming out. I know a lot of people don’t know who I am. Those who do know me, they know I come to fight.”
KRIEGEL: “One of the guys who does know you is Adrien Broner. You were in his camp for Marcos Maidana. What stands out to [you] about him?"
GRANADOS: "Він чудовий боєць. Я маю на увазі, it’s no fluke that he is a four-division world champion.”
KRIEGEL: “Did he ever hurt you?"
GRANADOS: “Definitely, we are humans. He can crack. He just had that explosive power. He had 16-ounce gloves and it felt like he was hitting me with his bare fist. He just hits hard.”
KRIEGEL: “Did you ever hurt him?"
GRANADOS: “Definitely. I know I did. He may not admit it. Так, I know I had him bloodied a couple times. I know I had him backing up a couple of times. You just know as a fighter when you crack somebody.”
On the passing of top prospect and friend Ed Brown…
GRANADOS: “I believe it was a Неділя. I was in a barbershop…They were like, ‘I heard about your boy.’ And I’m … trying to keep it together. I just called George, our coach. He told me, ’Yeah man, Ed has died. Ed is dead.’ And right there I broke down and cried and screamed to coach, ‘I’m going to win this fight. I’m going to win this fight for him.’”
“Somedays you are just feeling good. Then you got some days that you just feel like, ви знаєте, the worst ever…I’m just glad to God that I got out of that mind state and I’m back on a more positive path.” – Adrien Broner

Former four-division world champion Adrien “The Problem” Broner opens up in an extensive interview with Sports Emmy® Award-Winning writer Відзначити Крігель as he prepares for his welterweight showdown against top-rated contender Адріан Гранадос Субота, Лютого. 18, жити на SHOWTIME® (9 p.m. І/6 p.m. PT) from Cintas Center at Xavier University in Cincinnati, Огайо.
This interview is the latest in a reoccurring Showtime спорту® digital series, THE REVEAL with Mark Kriegel, featuring exclusive and in-depth interviews with boxing’s emerging stars.
Broner is one of the most accomplished and outspoken young stars in the sport of boxing. After picking up world titles at 130, 135 і 147 фунти, Broner earned a belt in a fourth weight division (140 фунти) в жовтні 2015 when he defeated tough Russian Khabib Allakhverdiev via a stoppage in the 12ї round in his last hometown appearance. Він 9-1 in world title fights and this will be the 15ї time he fights as a pro in front of his hometown crowd.
Below are bites from the interview:
KRIEGEL: “You’ve been around a lot of death. You’ve seen a lot.”
BRONER: “Yeah.”
KRIEGEL: “Do you care to remember for me?"
BRONER: “I remember, but I try to forget. Ви знаєте, I found out the hard way. And I’ve seen that I gotta maneuver different and that’s why I’m maneuvering differently. That’s why I put as many positive people in front of me as possible.”
MARK KRIEGEL: “Let me ask you about this year. It’s been a tough year for you. You did 30 days for contempt. What was that like?"
Адрієн Broner: “You know, I did a year at that place. Fighting a case.”
KRIEGEL: “As a juvenile?"
BRONER: "Не, they tried me as an adult. Я був тільки 17 at the time… I missed on the pre-trials. Бум. I beat it. I get out and I become Adrien Broner. My lifestyle is totally different. І потім, one day, I wake up back in the same place—I was in one of the same [cells] I was in when I did the year.”
KRIEGEL: “What did you tell yourself?"
BRONER: “I made it the best that I can make it. Але, ви знаєте, when I was in there. I used to be by myself. I used to try to be by myself as much as possible. Але, I told them to put me in general population—because they wanted to put me in protective custody. I can’t do 30 days like that… I helped the whole unit…I just made it a better place at the time. If somebody needs something to eat, I gave them something to eat.”
