DEONTAY WILDER VS. ARTUR PIN & CHARLES MARTIN VS. VYACHESLAV GLAZKOV MEDIA CONFERENCE CALL TRANSCRIPT

Efterlad en kommentar
Lou DiBella
Thank you very much and welcome to the, final conference call for the SHOWTIME Championship Boxing show, Januar 16 of this new year at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. The show will begin at 10 p.m. OG/7 p.m. Pt på SHOWTIME. It’s a world championship, heavyweight championship doubleheader.
These are the first two heavyweight title fights in over 100 years in Brooklyn on the same night, 115 years since the last heavyweight title fight in Brooklyn. And there’ll be two on the same night on Januar 16 på SHOWTIME.
The first bout will be for the vacant IBF Heavyweight World Championship between Charles Martin and the highest ranked contender in the IBF, former Olympic Bronze Medalist, Vyacheslav “Czar” Glazkov. The main event will be Deontay Wilder, the Heavyweight Champion of the World of the WBC who is defending his title against the very colorful and exciting Artur Szpilka.
We’re going to start with Stephen Espinoza, the man who runs SHOWTIME Boxing and who has put together this great card for us.
Stephen Espinoza
Tak, Lou. As some of you know, 2016 represents the 30th anniversary of SHOWTIME Championship Boxing. The very first fight at SHOWTIME was telecast on March 10, 1986 and featured Marvelous Marvin Hagler versus John Mugabi. We’ve had a variety of high-profile fighters and fights since.
To kick off our 30th anniversary year, I can’t think of a better way to do it than at Barclays Center in Brooklyn with a doubleheader of heavyweight title fights. There is going to be some explosive action. We have some really entertaining, interesting personalities. Faktisk, I can’t wait to see what the rest of this all holds.
L. DiBella
I’m going to start with the man who is the leading available contender in the IBF, and he is going to fighting Charles Martin for the IBF Heavyweight Championship. Czar Glazkov, 21-0-1, 13 KOs from the Ukraine originally, now fighting out of Fort Lauderdale, Florida. He’s a 2007 Silver Medalist at the World Amateur Boxing Championship and a 2008 Olympic Bronze Medalist at Super Heavyweight.
Manager extraordinaire, Egis Klimas is on the call, and he will do the translating for Czar Glazkov. Czar is promoted by Main Events and Kathy Duva of Main Events will be co-promoting this fight with us.
Egis klima
Hej, alle. This is Egis, manager of Vyacheslav Glazkov. We’re very happy to have a title shot, the world title of the IBF. We wanted to thank our promoter Main Events for doing such a good job for bringing Glazkov to this opportunity. I am very fortunate to represent Mr. Glazkov. I’ve been doing it for four years, and this is a big shot for him to become the world champion.
I would like to introduce to you, Vyascheslav Glazkov, the contender for the IBF Title.
Vyaschelav Glazkov
Ja. Hej, alle. This is Vyacheslav Glazkov. This is a great opportunity for me and a really good chance for me to win the World Championship.
L. DiBella
Charles Martin, 22-0-1 med 20 KOS, born in St. Louis, Missouri, now from Carson, California. Charles is a huge physical specimen at 6’5″. The 29-year-old knockout artist was an accomplished amateur. He won the 2012 National PAL Championship. Charles is something of an unknown commodity to a lot of people. He is the number three-ranked IBF contender and is looking forward to his opportunity and what he thinks is going to be a knockout win against Vyacheslav Glazkov.
Charles, vil du gerne sige et par ord, please?
Charles Martin
Ja. I’m so thankful to be in this position and blessed to get a world title shot, and that’s what all boxers dream of. It’s finally becoming a reality to me. I’m not going to let anything stand in front of me of receiving this IBF title. So I will be prepared on Januar 16.
I’m up in high altitude right now. I’m in the snow. I’m running in the snow. I’m getting it, grinding with it, and it’s going to all show in the rings.
L. DiBella
Tak, Charles. Charles is promoted by Warriors Boxing in Florida, so they will also be a co-promoter of this title fight.
I would open it up now to questions for Vyacheslav Glazkov and Charles Martin.
Q
Can you take me through the decision-making process of dropping out of your fight with Dominic Breazeale in December?
C. Martin
I’m glad you asked that because I wanted to do both of the fights. My team is the one that talked me out of it. I was up here making plans to do both. They’re like, ja, ja, du ved, that’s right, that’s right. With the conversation with my coaches, I’m like, I can do this fight. I can get this another way. Then I’m lined up right here.
My manager and everybody else, they’re like, “Hey, this is a world title opportunity. It’s the opportunity of a lifetime. You fight for a world title. So we’re pulling out. You’re going to back to camp and get this belt.” I guess after a while it sunk in and it started to make sense. And I said, “Hey, du ved, whatever. Let’s just do it.” Because anything could happen.
You could get cut or something, any kind of crazy stuff that could have pulled me out of this fight. But I guarantee I was going to knock Dominic out. That’s automatic, du ved hvad jeg mener? Vi kender hinanden. I would have knocked him out, sikkert.
Q
You’re talking about Breazeale, who you know?
C. Martin
Ja, Dominic Breazeale. I would have knocked him out.
Q
When you did make that decision to withdraw from the fight, did you stay straight through in camp. Did you at least take a couple of days off? Did you do anything over the holidays? Or did you just basically stay in camp and just work all the way through it?
C. Martin
Ja, I took a week off. I took that week off and then we got back to camp. I started back training when I was in L.A.. I live in North Hollywood, so we have a gym right there. These guys they sponsor me and I got a gym right there. Me and my coaches got in there and we were hitting pads and we’re doing workouts, doing pushups and callisthenic-type of movements.
Then we got right back up here into the high altitude, en. We are in Big Bear right now. We’ve been here for a few weeks now. We’ve been up here grinding, en. We’re getting it in. I’m in perfect shape. I’m in the best shape I’ve ever been in my life. Jeg er klar til at kæmpe.
Q
When you look at the record of Glazkov, does it make you think to yourself, I better really get rid of this guy because I cannot leave it in the hands of the judges?
C. Martin
I don’t even take the time to think about those kind of things because he’s never been in the ring with a fighter like me. I’m no Cunningham. I’m no Tor Hamer. I’m none of these guys that he fought.
I’m totally a different fighter than he’s ever seen. So come fight night, I’m ready to prove it to the whole wide world. I’m ready to be that superstar. We train like superstars. If you’re going to train mediocre, you’ll be mediocre, and that’s what I see out of a lot of fighters, sværvægtere, especially. But we train to be a superstar and that’s what you guys are going to see.
Q
Has everything changed in the mindsets for a fighter like yourself after Klitschko’s loss?
C. Martin
It was going to open up eventually. Klitschko had a very good run. His whole career was outstanding. He’s an awesome fighter. But it’s our time now. There are new fighters on the map. We had big plans to knock him out as well. We wanted to knock him out and become superstars overnight. Everybody got the dream.
It’s here now, en. I get to fight for the IBF World Title. I can’t believe it. Every day I wake up. I think I’m freaking blessed. I’m fighting for a world title. This is crazy. Sometimes it doesn’t even sound right, but it’s real. So I’m going to seize the moment, afgjort.
Den. Glazkov
Godt, I think right now the heavyweights are going to be very interesting because of all the titles getting a split around. There is going to be more champions, and that’s what the fan always like because for many years it was all one person. I’m looking forward to see what is going to be happening in the heavyweight division.
Q
This is for both fighters. I just want to know if one of you, unless there is a draw, wins this title next weekend, are you anxious to unify with either the WBC champion or with Tyson Fury?
Den. Glazkov
Ja, selvfølgelig. This is the dream of every fighter to get all the titles because I truly believe the real champion is whoever is holding all four titles.
C. Martin
Ja, I want it all. As soon as I get this belt, I want to unify. I want everything. I want all the hardware. Look out for “Prince” Charles Martin. I’m here to make a statement and you guys are going to see, finally. I’ve been under wraps a long time but now the world can see me display my skill. Ja, I can’t wait to unify. I want everything.
Q
Charles, do you think that Glazkov is a pretty decent step up in competition on paper from who else you fought? I’d like your assessment of him as a boxer and what you think he brings to the table.
C. Martin
Ja. He’s definitely a step up on paper. His resume reads well. Han er en god fighter. He’s technical, keeping his hands up and stuff like that, has a pretty nice hook. But I got to give you the ups and the downs. He’s a little guy. I’m massive, stærk, kraftfuld, elusive. He’s definitely going to be in there for the hardest fight of his life that he’ll ever have.
Q
Czar, you heard what Charles said. He called you a little guy. I’d like your reaction to and what you think of Martin technically. Have you seen tape on him? What do you think of him as a fighter?
Den. Glazkov
I respect all of my opponents. Anybody who steps into the ring is doing a very good job. As far as him as a boxer, hvad kan jeg sige? He’s a big dude. Han er en sydpaw. I soak up all of his videos. He’s not the standard guy. He’s not a normal guy, but that’s why I’m picking up my sparring partners. That’s why I’m working and preparing for the fighting.
Q
Czar, What’s your prediction for this fight?
Den. Glazkov
I’m not going to be saying that I’m going to knock him out. I’m not going to be aiming to knock him out. I’m just going to be fighting and showing everybody my good skills with boxing. If it’s a knockout coming, it’s going to come.
L. DiBella
This is a significant fight. There is a belt at stake. There is an Olympic Medalist fighting a massive American heavyweight, as Charles accurately described himself, and also extremely charismatic and English-speaking American heavyweight that this fight can bring in major new player to the forefront in the heavyweight division. So it’s a very significant fight.
I thank you guys for joining us, and we’ll see you next week.
Now we’re going to move on to the main event of the evening, Deontay Wilder’s third defense of his WBC Heavyweight Championship of the World against Artur Szpilka, who is promoted by Warriors Boxing. If you’ve been following this promotion or listened to our first call, you’ll know that Artur’s English has gotten much better and he’s never at a loss for words nor is he at a loss for confidence.
I know that Deontay is looking forward to fighting a guy that’s looking to bring the fight and is this confident in his own skills and his ability.
Artur, would you like to say a few words to start?
A. Pin
Welcome to everybody. The new heavyweight champion is here. You’ll see. I wait for questions.
L. DiBella
Godt, the man who believes he is going to be the new heavyweight champion just said a couple of words. Now we’re going to go to the Heavyweight Champion, undefeated Deontay Wilder.
Deontay Wilder
Good evening everyone. Happy New Year. We’re headed into a new year. It’s going to be a hell of a year this year for not only myself but a lot of other fighters as well. There are a lot of things going on in the heavyweight division. The division is definitely alive, and I’m looking to claim it all.
I wish all the heavyweights in the division good luck on their up and coming journeys. And I definitely wish my opponent good luck on becoming the first Polish champion. That is something that has been a hard task to complete for many Polish guys.
He’s not the first to come. It’s going to be difficult for him as well, but I wish him luck. He should be proud that he made it this far, and got this opportunity. So I’m looking forward to Januar 16, to conquering the world.
Q
How’s training going, Deontay? How’s camp been? How’s your training? Same question for Artur.
D. Wilder
Camp has been wonderful. We’ve had a lot of wonderful guys that come in camp. I’ve always been in shape. That’s always been my motto, that I’m never out of shape. To not have fought a southpaw i tre år, and to have a great camp like I’ve had, it’s been crazy.
It reminded me of why I enjoy and love fighting southpaws. I definitely had fun in this camp. I’m looking forward to the fight. I really am. This is my statement year, the start of the year. I’m looking forward to make a statement on Szpilka’s face.
A. Pin
Alt er stor. Everything is fine. For at være ærlig, I cannot wait to start this whole commotion. Especially I am waiting for the moment that I will be able, for første gang, to look in Deontay’s eyes, and be in the middle of this whole fight week preparation, and fight week craziness.
Q
For each fighter, what is difficult about preparing for the other guy? For Deontay, how different is it facing a southpaw, especially one that kind of fights out of a crouch? And for Szpilka, how difficult is it to prepare for someone who is so tall, and with such reach?
D. Wilder
It’s different levels of what you look at as difficult. Southpaws are my fun people to fight. Du ved, southpaws are people that pressure me. They are the ones I enjoy the most in sparring and actual fights and stuff like that.
There’s nothing, difficult about the southpaw, other than you’re switching sides with fighters. What you’re used to seeing is just backwards. That’s about it. Everything else is all about your feel, your determination, your IQ in the ring, and what you’re able to do with your ability.
I could put everything I got in the bank on my abilities and skill and will, and what I’m capable of doing in the ring. There’s no other heavyweight in the division like me, especially when it comes into the athletic department. I’m the most athletic heavyweight in the division.
There comes a point in time where it’s enough talking and it’s time to fight, which is what we’re doing now. We’re in the last few couple of words here, and a couple of more days. Then it’ll be time to fight. Den vej, every fighter has something to say about what they’re going to do.
There comes a time when you have to put forth the action, and actually see whether you’re really just talking to promote yourself, just to sell yourself, or to build your confidence, or build confidence around you, the people that you have inside, or are you the real deal. And I’m pretty sure that I can put every penny on it that I’m the real deal, and what I talk about, I put full action in.
What I’m saying I’m going to, I’ll do it. Everybody that knows me personally knows that if Deontay says he’s going to do something, it’s going to be done. So it’s exciting times, og jeg kan ikke vente. I really can’t. I’m in love with boxing. I’m in love with the sport. Jeg elsker kæmper. I love every bit of it and this is just a part of it.
This is the part I hate, just the waiting. And I’ll be so anxious to beat somebody up, just look at their face. This is the part that I hate — the waiting part. I’m ready for the fight. Jeg er klar til at kæmpe. Training is enough. I could have taken off that last little week of training, I didn’t need it.
Jeg er klar. I didn’t need the last week of training. I didn’t need the last week of strength training. I don’t need that. These guys could have went home. If I wasn’t paying my sparring partners, I would have sent them home.
But I don’t believe in giving out free money, so they had to stay and they had to spar — not to the point that they didn’t give me no work, because they gave me great work. It’s just to the point where I am super-ready. I’m just done, klar.
I’m looking forward to it, and I hope everybody is and everyone who is going to be attending this fight, who all’s going to be attending it or watching it on TV. They’re in for a treat. They’re in for a huge treat, just to start the year off.
I’m excited about the new year, that we get to start it off, make a statement. I want this fight to be already the fight of the year, and this is just the beginning of the year. So that’s what excitement I’m trying to bring to this fight. I’m trying to bring a severe knockout.
I want to get back to my knockout days. My hands were still out of all this time, last year my hand was about 85% when I defended my title. Now it’s, looking back, strong as ever. It’s back to 100%, and I’m looking to go back to where I used to be — four rounds or under.
A. Pin
For now I’m just ready to step into the ring. I also like to fight taller fighters. All the time when I’m spending time in Houston with my trainer, this is what we train for. I understand the training is not the actual fight. But I always liked the taller fighters.
Whatever Deontay is saying just makes no sense. I don’t believe in his words, and I will be able to prove it in the ring on the 16th. But for now, it’s just talk by Deontay.
Q
Everybody was just really looking forward to 2016’s Klitschko against Wilder. How disappointed were you when Klitschko just didn’t show up?
D. Wilder
I was very disappointed that Klitschko didn’t show up and do the things that we expected of him and what he was capable of doing. It could be many reasons why that Klitschko didn’t show up, because that wasn’t him as a fighter. Klitschko as a person, his body was there, but as a fighter, something was missing. That isn’tt what we’re used to seeing out of Wladimir Klitschko.
I think Father Time has knocked on his door, and he don’t want to let him in yet. Men, I think it’s knocking at his door, and that fight proved it.
There’s talk of a rematch, and I’m going to see the second time around. So some people are still in daze of belief, because they can’t believe what they’ve seen.
Just like my career, many times, people make excuses for me. They say different things; even criticize me because they can’t understand why I’m able to do what I do, and how I do it when I do it. Så, it’s the same thing as Klitschko. So we’re going to see the second time around, was this real?
Q
Does it mean extra to you to be fighting in such a new arena in the borough of Brooklyn?
D. Wilder
I’m very happy and honored to be able to be able to fight in Brooklyn. Barclays Center as well with so much rich heavyweight history throughout the state of New York. I’m so looking forward to finally putting my name down in history.
I definitely want to come in in the new year, and not only put history down, but in a great fashion; make a great statement to all the others that are in the division. This is a fine time for me. 2016 is going to be a starting time as well, so just making the whole division back and exciting again.
It’s definitely an exciting time and I’m just happy to be a part of it, and bringing that excitement truly back to the heavyweight division. I may be a country boy, but I don’t think the city’s ready for this boy right here.
Q
My first question is to Szpilka. Where are you guys at right now with the drug testing?
A. Pin
I’m still waiting. I’m still waiting. I don’t know why.
D. Wilder
Well I don’t know what he’s talking about. I just went to LabCorp yesterday and got blood drawn for the fight. So this is a championship fight. You’re not going to have a championship fight without being drug-tested. Periode. So whether the test is happening before the fight, or whether the test happens after the fight, there will be a drug test.
Q
Is this camp different compared to all the other camps that you guys went through?
D. Wilder
This camp has been one of the most fun camps for the simple fact that I haven’t been involved with a southpaw in like three years. To get my brain back in functioning how to defeat a southpaw, it has been fun. I can’t say challenging, because I had too much fun doing it.
I can’t wait to show you everything that I have to offer. Just as I developing my skill, I develop everything I’ve learned over the years, and apply them in the ring.
Like I said before, I keep saying that I want it to be embedded in you guys’ brains that 2016 belongs to Deontay Wilder, where he will unify the division. There hasn’t been one since 1999. That was Lennox Lewis. Now I must make history. I can’t let any man get in my way from that.
If any man feels that I’m just talk, like Szpilka says, he thinks I’m just talk. There’s never been anything I said that I haven’t done. But we’ve seen him, many times, tale. We’ve recently seen him say the same shit he’s talking about now. And what happened? He ended up becoming the loser.
Everything I’ve said I’ve backed up. That’s why I’m still the champ. That’s why I am a winner. And the thing about it, my 10,000 hours is coming up – of training is coming up (uforståelig). So now I’m coming up four complete fighters now. I understand my abilities and skills inside that ring, and those 10,000 hours is definitely approaching.
I’m looking forward to the world embracing me, and to continue being the heavyweight champ of the world, soon to be the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world.
A. Pin
Just like I said before, and just like Deontay said before, I also could have skipped the last week of training. Everything is done. Everything is prepared. Right now it’s just waiting. So we’re going to find out who is who on Januar 16.
Q
I wonder what you think about the fact that you’re fighting in Deontay’s home country, but chances are you’re going to be the one that everybody’s cheering for?
A. Pin
There is no doubt that my crowd, the Polish crowd, will be predominant on Januar 16 in Barclays Center. They will be like additional gloves in the ring for me. They’re going to carry me to be a winner, to be a champion, something special. I’m going to fight also for them.
Q
What would it mean to you to become the first Polish heavyweight to win a world title?
A
This is the most important part of this fight for me, not even to become a world champion. It’s not about that. It’s about to be part of the history; becoming the first Polish heavyweight champion; to be the one when, even after I’m going to be dead, people are going to say, oh, this was the Szpilka guy, the guy who was the first Polish heavyweight champion. This is what I want to do, and this is what I’m going to prove to everybody onJanuar 16.
L. DiBella
Well thank you, Artur, and thank you, Deontay. That’ll be our last question. Igen, the Showtime telecast will begin at 10:00 OG/7:00 PT. But there are tickets still available at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, and we urge people to come out.
This is a rare opportunity to see the heavyweight champion of the world defend his title, and to see another heavyweight championship contested — two heavyweight title fights in one night, Barclays center, Januar 16, on SHOWTIME Championship Boxing.
Tickets again are at Ticketmaster.com, by calling Ticketmaster; Barclays Center.com; by going to Barclays Center box office. We hope to see you in Brooklyn. Deontay and Artur, we’ll see you next week in Brooklyn, and we look forward to a great event on Januar 16. Thank you all for joining us.

Undefeated Middleweight Rob Brant Faces Decarlo Perez in Main Event; Harmonito Dela Torre, Jarrell Miller & Bakhtiyar Eyubov
Risk Their Unblemished Records In Other Televised Fights

Fredag, Jan. 22 På 10:35 p.m. OG/PT

Live på SHOWTIME®

NEW YORK (December. 28, 2015) - ShoBox: Den nye generation begins its 15th year on SHOWTIME® with an explosive quadrupleheader on Fredag, Jan. 22, 2016 live from Casino Del Sol in Tucson, Ariz. (10:35 p.m. OG/PT, forsinket på vestkysten).

 

I den vigtigste begivenhed af aftenen, ubesejret mellemvægt Røve "Bravo" Brant (18-0, 11 KOS, 0-3 i World Series of Boxing) St. Paul, Fra., measures against Atlantic City’s Decarlo Perez (15-3-1, 5 KOS) i en 10-runde matchup.

 

In co-featured bouts, ubesejret Harmonito “Hammer” Dela Torre (17-0, 12 KOS), of Las Vegas by way of Philippines, makes his United States debut against Rafael Guzman (16-1-1, 10 KOS), af Ensenada, Mexico in an eight-round super featherweight bout and undefeated heavyweight Jarrell "Big Baby" Miller (15-0-1, 13 KOS) af Brooklyn, N.Y.. faces southpaw Donovan Dennis (14-3, 11 KOS, 2-1 in WSB) Cleveland, Ohio in an eight-round scrap.

 

Åbning af ShoBox fjersynsudsendelse, hårdtslående Bakhtiyar Eyubov (9-0, 9 KOS), af Brooklyn, N.Y.. by way of Kazakhstan, opfylder Jared Robinson(16-2-1, 7 KOS), of Sumter, S.C. in an eight-round super lightweight tiff.

 

The event is promoted by Greg Cohen Promotions.

 

Boxing historian and expert ring analyst Steve Farhood has called every fight on ShoBox since it premiered in 2001. He anticipates another year of excellent, competitive matchups in 2016.

 

“In 2015, we had eight fighters who appeared on ShoBox og endte med at vinde VM-titler. That means the average number of shows in which you’ll see a future world champion is one out of four,"Sagde Farhood.

 

“We saw some fantastic prospects last year, Herunder Erickson Lubin og Regis Prograis and fresh faces like Jarrett Hurd, Røve Brant—and a fighter who almost seems ready to fight for a title now—SergeyDerevyanchenko. Given Shobox’s 15-year history, I’m fully expecting that we will have more of the same in 2016.’’

 

Brant, Perez and Miller will be making their second consecutive appearances on ShoBox. Brant and Miller were victorious last Oktober. 23, Perez last August. 28. Robinson will also be making his second ShoBox start; the four other boxers will be making their debuts.

 

“Both Brant and Perez won their most recent appearances on ShoBoxand both were impressive,'Farhood sagde. “Brant took a big step up and outpointed Louis Rose in October and Perez pulled off the upset over the previously unbeaten Juan Ubaldo Cabrera i august. So it makes all the sense in the world to match them against each other. On Jan. 22, we’re going to find out just how hot Rob Brant is.’’

Twenty-six-year-old Brant will be headlining his second consecutiveShoBox. In his first, he captured a hard-fought 10-round majority decision over Rose. Going 10 runder for første gang, Brant triumphed in an entertaining tight fight.

Før du tænder pro i november 2010, Brant was a 2010 National Golden Gloves Champion på 178 pounds og et medlem af US. national boxing team pro. He currently trains in Dallas alongside top prospect Errol Spence Jr.

“I’m really excited about this fight and I’ve been training hard for several weeks now,’’ Brant said. “I’ve got a very serious opponent in front of me. He rates about a 7.7 at everything, which doesn’t leave a whole lot of weaknesses. I’ve got to go back to pure boxing for this one. I have to be better in every department. It’s my second time headlining ShoBox and I plan on improving from the first time, so viewers can chart my progress. This is my time to show my growth.’’

Perez, who hails from a fighting family, has won four straight and nine of his last 10. He scored a surprising, upset, a 10-round unanimous decision over Cabrera (23-0 går i) in his last outing. Perez, der tog kampen om en uges varsel, outpointed the two-time Dominican Republic Olympian by the scores of 98-91 to gange og 97-92.

“I’m so excited I’m the main event on national television,’’ Perez said. “I don’t know a lot about my opponent but I’m well prepared, both mentally and physically. I plan on giving the fans an exciting night.

“Camp is going very well. My management team has brought in top sparring with all undefeated boxers, one being Julian Williams. I’m excited that my trainer is allowing me to fight the majority, if not all of this fight, in the southpaw stance. I’m really a southpaw, but I have fought right-handed most of my career.”

 

Perez’ last loss came on a split eight-round decision to world title challenger Wilky Campfort i januar 2014. Uden for ringen, Perez is a pharmacy technician at an Atlantic City hospital.

 

Miller, a former New York Golden Gloves finalist who turned pro in July 2009, is a confident, power-punching heavyweight who comes to knock you out. He won his ShoBox debut, standsning Akhror Muralimov with a devastating right hand to the chin at 1:03 i tredje runde.

“I feel like I should have been here two years ago,’’ Miller said. “I’m not coming to make friends. I’m here to annihilate and destroy the whole heavyweight division. On Jan. 22, I’m going to put Donovan Dennis to sleep. I’m not being heard right now, so I have to make myself known. After this fight and what I do to Dennis, things will really, really start to pick up. I’m ready to destroy.’’

 

Besides being a hard hitter, Miller has good overall skills and movement for a big man whose weight fluctuates from fight to fight. He’s won his last four by knockout, all inside three rounds.

Known for an aggressive style, Miller is now fully focused on a fistic career, but he hails from an MMA and kickboxing background. For nogle år, Han konkurrerede i K-1, historisk verdens førende kickboxing organisation, og to gange kæmpede den legendariske Mirko “Cro Cop” Filipović.

“There seems to be a new energy and enthusiasm on the American heavyweight scene,'Farhood sagde. “Part of that is explained by the fall of a dominant champion in Wladimir Klitschko and part of it is explained by the emergence of Deontay Wilder, and even Travis Kauffman. So for a young heavyweight like Jarrell Miller, the time seems to be ideal to secure TV exposure and make a name for himself.’’

Dennis, 28, was born and raised in Davenport, Iowa. Before turning pro in June 2010, he was a top-level amateur: 11-time Iowa State Champion, 2011 National Golden Gloves runner-up in and 2012 Den. S. Olympic Games Trials contestant.
The 6-foot-4 Dennis possesses good skills, movement and punching power to go with his strong amateur background. His weakness is durability; he’s been knocked out in all of his losses.

 

“I’m ready to fight,’’ Dennis said. “I’ve been training really hard and I am looking forward to the fight. I just want to get this win and move on as I will have a big year in 2016.’’

 

Dela Torre, considered one of the top young talents in the Philippines, will be fighting outside of Asia for the first time. A big puncher and winner of seven straight by knockout, 5-fods-8, 21-year-old is coming off athird-round TKO over Ricard Betos sidste November. 14.

“It’s every boxer’s dream to fight on big cards in United States. This is the next step in my pathway to becoming world champion,’’ Dela Torre said. “I can’t wait. This is an opportunity I will take advantage of and show everyone I’m ready to step up. I let my team concentrate on my opponents and pass me instructions. I just know I’ll be ready and able to stop any opponent.’’

 

Before turning professional at 17, Dela Torre was a top member on the Philippine National Amateur Boxing Team. As a pro, he has made a “name” for himself after an impressive victory over Jason Butar-Butar on the undercard of a Manny Pacquiao-headlined fight in November 2013.

 

Guzman, a 5-foot-8½-inch 20-year-old, will be making his U.S. debut and initial start outside of Mexico since turning pro at 16 i juli 2011. In Dela Torre, Guzman will be taking a significant step up in class. Han scorede en tredje runde TKO løbet Pedro Lopez on his last start in Oktober. 9.

“I’m feeling very strong and ready for the challenge of this fight,’’ Guzman said. “Fighting on SHOWTIME is a huge opportunity for me. I hear my opponent is a good fighter, but I am ready for anything he can throw. Everybody is going to be talking about me after this fight.”

 

Yeyubov, 29, who could be on the fast track to stardom, is regarded by many to be the second-hardest Kazakh hitter in boxing, ranked only behind Gennady Golovkin. Since his days as an amateur when he won more than 150 slagsmål, a vast majority by knockout, Eyubov has lived up to his reputation as a fearsome banger who looks to remove the judges from the equation.

 

He’s overwhelmed his first nine opponents as a pro, winning six by knockout in the first round and two by knockout in the second. The furthest he’s gone in a fight came in his second start when he scored a third-round TKO (2:57) løbet Jhaquis Davis. I sin sidste udflugt på Oktober. 29, Han scorede et 1:27, første runde TKO løbet Antonio Chaves Fernandes i Brooklyn.

Robinson, a pro since August 2009, fights out of Charlotte, N.C.. A veteran of several scheduled 10-round fights, he’s undeniably the most experienced boxer Eyubov’s ever faced. A natural 140-pounder,Robinson won his initial 14 starts before losing on a fourth-round TKO to then-unbeaten Amir I på ShoBox in a bout he took on short notice on Feb. 21, 2014.

To starter siden, Robinson fought to a disputed eight-round split draw against then-unbeaten Haskell Rhodes (23-0 går i) juni 21, 2015. An excellent boxer with good skills and movement, the 5-foot-9-inch Robinson, 33, is coming off a one-sided 10-round decision overChristian Dominguez sidste Syv. 26. Uden for ringen, Robinson is amassage therapist.

Barry Tompkins vil kalde ShoBox handling fra ringside med Farhood og tidligere verdensmester Raul Marquez tjener som ekspert analytikere. Den udøvende producent Gordon Hall med Richard Gaughanproduktion og Rick Phillips lede.

“I am looking forward to getting back in the ring and finally getting my opportunity to fight for a world title,” said Glazkov. “I want to thank everyone who helped me get to this place in my career.”

BILLY JOE SAUNDERS DETHRONES ANDY LEE SATURDAY TO BECOME 12th CURRENT BRITISH WORLD CHAMPION ON SHO EXTREME® FROM MANCHESTER,ENGLAND

Efterlad en kommentar

NEW YORK (December. 19, 2015) – Billy Joe Saunders dethroned WBO Middleweight World Champion Andy Lee with a 12-round majority decision Saturday on SHOWTIME BOXING INTERNATIONAL fra Manchester, England.

 

Kampen, der blev scoret 115-111, 114-112 og 113-113, will re-air tonight at 9 p.m. OG/PT på SHO EXTREME.

 

In a matchup of tactical southpaws, an explosive third round from Saunders (23-0, 12 KOS) was the difference. The British challenger floored Lee twice – first with a big right hook and again with a counter right just 30 seconds later – and a dazed Lee somehow survived the 10-7 omgang. VIDEO HØJDEPUNKTER: http://s.sho.com/1OfibYe

 

The Irish Lee (34-3-1, 24 KOS) fought his way back and was the more aggressive fighter in the championship rounds, but it wasn’t enough to make up for a slow start and the two knockdowns.

 

Med sejren, Saunders became the 12th current British world champion.

 

“I’m world champion,sagde Saunders. “I beat a good champion today, a good sturdy champion. I used his power against him. When I was boxing he got a little bit careless and dropped his lead hand and I caught him with the hook.

 

“I’m not going to start running my mouth, but it was a good shot. With someone as fast as me you have to keep your hands up. I’m not the biggest puncher in the world, but I showed you there that I can punch.”

 

WBA mellemvægt verdensmester Daniel Jacobs, fresh off a first round knockout of Peter Quillin two weeks ago on SHOWTIME, was a guest analyst på lørdag from New York.

 

“I thought he was going to be a big brawler, I thought he had better assets,” Jacobs said of Lee. “He didn’t do enough for me. He was too complacent and after the knockdown you didn’t see that sense of urgency that a fighter has to have on the comeback trail.

 

“All credit due to Billy Joe, but it wasn’t an impressive victory.”

 

After watching the fight, Jacobs wasn’t ready to commit to a unification showdown in 2016 with the winner.

 

“We’ll do whatever makes sense,” Jacobs said. “I think it’s time to sit-down and figure what makes sense. Obviously it’s a good time to be a middleweight champion.”

“Don’t get too overwhelmed by the opportunity, Pin. You still have to do something with it.
“Once I knock Szpilka out, I want all the Polish fans to come on the “Bronze Bomber” train as I bring the heavyweight division back to the top.
“I’m the guy who has everything it takes to be heavyweight champion of the world. It’s not just about being great inside the ring, it’s about being able to do great things outside of the ring. Not everyone has that. I love to be out there with the people.
“Jeg er ligeglad, hvem det er. It doesn’t matter who is in the ring with me. I love a fighter who’s not scared because it gives me the motive to knock him out. I don’t play around because I mean business.
“I’m looking for a grand show. It’s going to be a great performance to kick off 2016. This is going to be a huge year for me. I’m knocking Szpilka out and I’m sending a message to everyone who stands in my way.”

“I hope that you hear loud and clear, Jeg kan vinde denne kamp. My mind is ready, my body is ready. You’re doneJanuar 16.
“I have everything that a good boxer needs. I’m very confident and I know that this is my time. I have respect for him, but he’s never fought somebody like me. Everybody he fought but Bermane Stiverne was a bum.
“Only three people have actually tried to fight him. Everybody else had already lost before they got into the ring.
“I wanted this fight. Dette er min tid. The heavyweight titles are wide open. There’s new blood for boxing.
“There is a big difference between me now and two years ago. I trust in my corner. You will all see a new Artur Szpilka on Januar 16.”

Airs Live at 5 p.m. OG/PT på SHO EXTREME; Encore Presentation at 9 p.m. OG/PT

“He’s not good enough to beat me.” – Andy Lee

“I’m not going to leave that ring without the title.” – Billy Joe Saunders

SHO VIDEO: http://s.sho.com/1ROfSkF

NEW YORK (December. 15, 2015) – WBO Middleweight World Champion Andy Lee og ubesejret udfordrer Billy Joe Saunders held separate media workouts in Manchester, England, as they conclude preparations for their eagerly awaited showdown this Lørdag, December. 19, live on SHO EXTREME (5 p.m. OG/PT)from Manchester Arena.

 

Irlands Lee (34-2-1, 24 KOS) will make the first defense of his 160-pound title against England’s Saunders (22-0, 12 KOS), the WBO’s No. 1 mellemvægt contender.

 

Den SHOWTIME BOKSNING INTERNATIONAL udbud afBoxNation Telecast vil indeholde analyser fra SHOWTIME-bokseeksperter Brian Custer, Al Bernstein og Paulie Malignaggifør og efter verdensmesterskabets opgør. En ekstra præsentation af kampen sendes på SHO EXTREME senere samme aften kl 9 p.m. OG/PT.

 

Here’s what Lee and Saunders had to say at their media workouts on Tuesday and Mandag, henholdsvis:

 

Andy Lee:

“I have a punch that can end a fight, lights out, in any given second.

 

“I won’t rely on the punch. I will look to dominate from the start with educated pressure.

 

“I’m feeling very dangerous at the moment.

 

“Saunders’ unbeaten record is a disadvantage. He’s always been in fights he’s expected to win and has been well managed by(Frank) Warren.

 

“I’ve never lost a fight on points and I never will on points. If I’m down on the cards I will go out swinging in the last round.

 

“Saunders being a fellow traveler does add another layer, but at the end the day it’s about how good you are and he’s not good enough to beat me.”

 

BILLY JOE SAUNDERS:

“I’m ready to go for Lørdag nat. This is the best camp that I’ve ever had. I’m prepared for the toughest test of my career, but I know that I’m in excellent shape to win this fight and become world champion.

 

“Andy Lee is a tough fighter – he’s proved that by becoming world champion and having the type of career he has had. But I’m undefeated and hungry and know that I’m on the brink of fulfilling a childhood dream. I’m not going to leave that ring without the title.

 

“Training in Spain allows me to lock myself away from all distractions and focus solely on the fight. It’s hard being away from home, but it’s all part of boxing. It’s been a long camp, a tough camp, but after that I know that I’m ready to go through hell to make sure that I’m successful come fight night.

 

“The middleweight division is one of the hottest around and I’m prepared to fight any of the other champions in there once I win the title.

 

"Danny Jacobs had a great win against Peter Quillin, and then there is Canelo (Alvarez) og (Gennady) Golovkin. I know the importance of this fight for the division and I want my name to be among the very best. I’m taking it one step at a time, but I’m open to fight anyone.

 

“There has been no trash talk with Andy because we know what each person is about. We share a similar background and neither of us is going to take a back step.

 

“This is going to be a very exciting all-action fight because we’re going to leave it all in the ring. I know I have the skills to beat him and I intend to show the world why I’m among the best around.”

 

Saunders on fellow Brit Chris Eubank Jr.:

“The truth of the matter is that Eubank Jr. does not belong at the world level – he’s a phony. Det er så simpelt er det. I wasn’t impressed with his win over Gary O’Sullivan, who I’ve already beat. He thinks he can fool the public with a win like that, but he can’t.

 

“His aim now is to move up and fight the best guys in the world, but we saw what happened the last time he stepped up a notch and faced me: he was badly exposed. The same thing will happen with him if he fights someone like Danny Jacobs for the WBA title.

 

“You’re not the best middleweight in your own country and you want to fight a world champion and say you’re going to beat him? I think it’s a delusion and he thinks he’s greater than he actually is.

 

“Sooner rather than later he’s going to get exposed again as the fraud that he is. You can keep talking, but eventually you have to back it up in the ring against top-level fighters. He’s won his last fight and now he’s back talking (udråb) again like he’s the best fighter in history.

 

“If he has the balls to fight again, which I doubt, I would happily hand him another beating, this time in even more convincing fashion.”

BROOKLYN (December. 6, 2015) – WBA mellemvægt verdensmester Daniel Jacobs chokeret ubesejret udfordrer Peter Quillin med en første runde TKO i alt-Brooklyn vigtigste tilfælde af SHOWTIME Championship Boxing på lørdag foran 8,443 fans på Barclays center.
Brooklyns Jacobs (31-1, 28 KOS) vandt “Battle For Brooklyn,” en matchup af top middleweights vender ud i prime af deres karriere i deres hjemby.
Et minut ind i kampen, Jacobs landede en lige ret til Quillin tempel og kastede med et stormløb af slag, mens hans modstander var imod tovene. Quillin snublede frem og dommer Harvey Dock kiggede i Quillin øjne og stoppet kampen uden udfordreren nogensinde rører lærredet.
Efter kampen, Dock fortalte SHOWTIME Sports reporter Jim Gray at Quillin (32-1-1, 23 KOS) kunne ikke begribe, hvor han var, og “var ikke i stand til at fortsætte.”
“Jeg håber, at han er okay,” Jacobs sagde. “Jeg var tålmodig og da jeg kom med en uppercut, jeg vidste, at jeg såre ham, og det er når jeg gik til at dræbe.
“Jeg fortalte ham, jeg elsker ham. Mig og Peter gå tilbage til Golden Glove dage. Jeg respekterer ham til døden, but I knew this fight would be my night. There are no lucky shots in boxing. Naturligvis jeg fangede ham med et skud. Når jeg vidste, at jeg havde ham såre jeg holdt gå.
“Jeg så hans øjne, og det lignede hans ligevægt var slukket. Jeg er ikke en dommer, men hvis jeg var jeg sandsynligvis ville have stadig gav ham endnu en mulighed.”
Kampen, som kun varede 1:25, tryglede spørgsmålet om en potentiel omkamp.
“Jeg absolut ville give ham en omkamp,” Jacobs fortsatte. “Jeg er villig til at bekæmpe ham næste hvis det er hvad fans ønsker.”
Quillin syntes at være uenig med standsningen, indtil du ser replay under hans SHOWTIME post-kamp interview.
“Det er rigtigt på templet,” Quillin said. “I det øjeblik, du ikke ved, hvad der sker, indtil du ser det i replay.
“This is a time you sit with your family and figure out what you have to do. I have a lot of options, måske en omkamp er den bedste løsning.
“Jeg kan ikke tænke på en bedre person til at tabe til end Danny Jacobs.”
Jesus Cuellar forsvarede sin WBA Fjervægt VM med en enstemmig beslutning i løbet af Jonathan Oquendo i SHOWTIME Championship Boxing co-funktionen.
Cuellar (28-1, 21 KOS) var den travle fighter fra starten, kaster næsten 1,000 slag i 12-runde mesterskab kamp, sammenlignet med blot 637 for the challenger. Cuellar initiated the action and pressed forward, men hans puertoricanske modstander ville ikke deltage i det meste af kampen.
“Vi vidste kampen ville være vanskeligt, men vi opnået alt, hvad vi ønskede at under træningslejr,” Cuellar sagde. “Det eneste, der var tilbage var knockout, men på grund af bevægelsen af ​​hans hoved det var umuligt.
Oquendo (26-5, 16 KOS), der blev skåret over hans venstre øje fra en utilsigtet sammenstød mellem lederne i femte, was knocked down midway through the fourth. Replays showed that Oquendo tangled his feet with his southpaw opponent.
Den sejr, der blev scoret 116-111 to gange, 120-107, sandsynligvis opstiller en stor kamp på 126 pund for den argentinske Cuellar i 2016.
“Først vil vi hvile og derefter vil vi afgøre, hvad der bliver det næste,” Cuellar sagde.
“We’ll have two more fights at featherweight and then move up in weight. Hopefully we get Leo Santa Cruz next.”
Efter kampen, Oquendo erkendte, at han ikke korrekt gennemføre sit spil planen.
“I have to give credit to Cuellar. I never got to use my game plan and he fought a good fight and he’s a good champion,” Oquendo sagde. “Jeg havde brug for at starte mere aggressiv, men jeg begyndte boksning. Det var min fejl. Hovedet Butt gjorde det svært for mig at se så godt.
“Jeg har tid til at komme tilbage og få en anden verden titel lejlighed. Jeg er skuffet, men jeg vil være tilbage i gymnastiksalen klar til at komme tilbage til arbejdet snart.”
Long Island Chris ALGIERI besejret Erick Bone via 10-runde enstemmig afgørelse (95-94, 97-92 to gange) i en tempofyldt, alle-action bekæmpe den vigtigste begivenhed i SHOWTIME BOKSNING på SHO EXTREME.
The back-and-forth fight featured plenty of in-fighting in the center of the ring. Algieri (21-2, 8 KOS), der landede 49 procent af hans magt skud, floored Bone (16-3, 8 KOS) med 20 seconds left in the eighth round. Men, på replay, the knockdown looked more like Bone’s foot became tangled with Algieri. The ninth-round featured non-stop action, med hver fighter kaste løbet 100 punches, men det var tydeligt, at den ecuadorianske Bone blev gasset og havde lidt tilbage i sine slag som kampen nærmede sig enden.
“Erick sagde, at han ville have overraskelser, men jeg havde et par af mine egne derinde,” Algieri said. “Jeg boksede lidt og slugged mere end jeg skulle have, men jeg var bare at have det sjovt. He’s got a good punch, han er en undervurderet fighter, og du kunne fortælle han var i god form.
“Dette er stort. Bone is a real tough guy and I felt in control. I thought the fight was mine the whole way. I wanted to get the knockout, men han var i god form. I’m looking forward to big fights in 2016.”
I åbningen Bout på SHOWTIME BOKSNING på SHO EXTREME, Marcus Browne scoret et fjerde runde TKO løbet Francisco Sierra.
Browne (17-0, 13 KOS) grundigt dominerede kampen fra starten, landing et astronomisk 64 procent af hans magt slag. The bout was halted after the third round upon request of ringside physician Dr. Barry Jordan på grund af betydelig hævelse omkring Sierras (27-10-1, 24 KOS) venstre øje.
“Jeg så jeg skar ham tidligt, men jeg skulle bo vedholdende og konsekvent,” Said Browne, af Staten Island. “I had to work the jab and keep working it. I felt like I seized this opportunity to put my name out there.
“It is an honor to fight at Barclays Center for the 10th time. It was a nice stoppage – ikke nødvendigvis den slags standsning, som du ønsker, men et stop er et stop.”
I ikke-tv-transmitteret undercard handling, Long Island Joe Smith Jr. (20-1, 16 KOS) oparbejdet en hård kæmpet enstemmig afgørelse i Brooklyn brandmand Will Rosinsky (19-3, 10 KOS) i deres 10-runde lys sværvægter Bout. Begge mænd udvekslede magt slag i hele kampen, men det var Smiths rækkevidde fordel, der tillod ham at styre handlingen. Alle tre dommere scorede kampen til fordel for Smith ved snesevis af 98-92, 97-93 og 96-94.
Populære Brooklyn fighter Heather Hardy (15-0, 3 KOS) forblev ubesejret med en actionfyldt enstemmig afgørelse sejr over Noemi Skove (10-4-2, 2 KOS) i en omkamp af deres May kæmpe vundet af Hardy. Dommerne’ totaler for de otte-runde junior-letvægt Bout var 80-72 to gange og 79-73.
Tidligere super weltervægt verdensmester Yuri Foreman (33-2, 9 KOS) havde en vellykket tilbagevenden til ringen i sin hjemby, da han besejrede Lenwood Dozier (9-9-1, 4 KOS) 77-75 i øjnene af alle tre dommere.
John Hernandez (6-1, 1 KO) lukke ude Jack Grady (0-2-1) over fire runder for at vinde 40-36 på alle tre dommere’ kort i deres weltervægt attraktion. Cruiserweight Luis Garcia (13-0, 10 KOS) forblev ubesejret ved at slå ud Willie Williams (14-11-2, 4 KOS) 1:03 i første runde.
I en kamp, ​​der oplevede både mænd ramte lærredet runde én, Titus Williams (4-0, 2 KOS) genvindes og cruisede til en sejr Emmanuel Castro (2-2, 2 KOS) af snesevis af 60-53, 60-54 og 59-54.

DANIEL JACOBS
“Ikke alene er vi kæmper for de håneretten i Brooklyn, men vi begge ønsker at være på toppen af ​​mellemvægt division. Alle de øverste middleweights kæmper hinanden, og vi har ret i, at rige.
“Jeg tror, ​​min hastighed er min største fordel. Min dygtighed, min ring generalship … Jeg kunne blive ved og ved. I sidste ende er det om at gå derind og bevise det.
“Jeg tror tage et tab før fordele mig. Jeg ved præcis, hvordan man forbereder og hvordan man forberede sig på at sørge for jeg har aldrig den følelse igen.
“Han vil nødt til at slå mig for at teste min hage. Denne sport handler om at ramme og ikke får ramt. Alle kan blive slået ned, men du er nødt til at lande skud. Hver gang jeg har fået slået ned, Jeg har fået op.
“Min forudsigelse er, at jeg har tænkt mig at have min hånd rejst i sejr. Uanset om det er ved knockout eller afgørelse, Vi bliver nødt til at se.
“Denne lejr har været anderledes, fordi jeg har haft en pre-camp. Vi havde tre ugers bare styrke og konditionering. Jeg fik i form at blive klar til lejren. Når det hele foregår, det vil være en 10-ugers lejr.
“Mentalt føler jeg som om jeg er stærk, og jeg kan lide, hvor jeg er på fysisk. Min vægt er god, og jeg føler sund. Vi kommer til at give det bedste af alting.
“En masse mennesker er begejstrede for kampene. Jeg er bare spændt det er her endelig, og jeg håber at komme ud med en sejr i imponerende mode.
“Dette er en bokser vs. en bokser-puncher. Hvis jeg får en fyr såret. Jeg kan få en fyr ud af der såvel. Min stansning magt er der. Jeg har flere knockouts end Quillin og jeg har tænkt mig at være på mit bedste på lørdag.
“Jeg er taknemmelig for alle mine fans. Jeg ønsker alle at vide, at jeg kommer til at repræsentere Brooklyn og dette show vil ikke skuffepå lørdag nat.”
PETER QUILLIN
“Distraktioner er i dit hoved, men de kan være en smule mere her i New York. Det er rart at komme væk til Miami og være i stand til at koncentrere sig om uddannelse og har alt lige der.

“Den brummer omkring Brooklyn er jeg den nye mester. Jeg kom til New York med en lille by, tankegang, men storby drømme og nu er de alle går i opfyldelse.

På chatter med Floyd Mayweather Tirsdag nat ved Barclays center: “Det er sjovt, fordi jeg talte til en skole i dag, men da jeg først mødte Floyd Mayweather, det var på min skole, og jeg var som 'mand, jeg kunne være ligesom, at alt for en døgn’ og jeg fortalte ham om det. Han forstod ikke, hvorfor jeg sagde, at, "Det hele startede på grund af dig’ og han sagde "hvad mener du’ og jeg fortalte ham, hvad der skete. Vi lo om det og det er alt, jeg havde brug for lige der. Jeg havde ikke brug for ham til at gøre noget for mig bare at vide, at det hele startede tilbage med ham komme til min skole og taler til børn som mig og ser, hvor jeg er nu. Jeg var kun 14 år gammel.
“Du kan forvente fyrværkeri i december måned. Vi vil være at kaste alt, hvad vi overhovedet kan smide.
“At være i Miami med al den cubanske historie der var stor. Boksning var som en fighter livsstil. Jeg var omkring mange mennesker, der var inspirerende over ord.
“Da jeg gik til (Erislandy) Lara kamp vi ledte efter parkering og jeg gik op til en fyr, og jeg spurgte, hvis vi kunne park der. Han går 'tu eres chokolade?’ (du er chokolade) og jeg sagde ja, og han sagde "ved du, hvor meget cubanske folk elsker dig?’ Jeg havde aldrig indset, at før, og det gjorde mig mere inspireret, til at tale mere spansk, at forstå mit folk. Cubanske folk er mit folk, Jeg ville aldrig nægte, at, og jeg er meget velsignet. Jeg er også en sort amerikansk så godt, så jeg ønsker at indstille et godt eksempel, især hvor tiden i verden er i lige nu for sorte mennesker. Jeg ønsker at være en inspiration for både.
“Vi har en plan A, plan B, Plan C, Plan D, Planen E, Planen F. Vi kommer til at gå til uden for, men vigtigst er jeg meget glad. Jeg er åndeligt glad og taknemmelig. Du falder ud af frygt og falder i tro, og du kan aldrig fornægte dig selv, så det er hvor jeg er lige nu.
“Ved at være cubansk automatisk du kæmper fra et andet punkt i perspektiv af kloden, når det kommer til kampene. For mig, Jeg er taknemmelig og mere inspireret til at arbejde endnu hårdere fordi jeg har fans, at jeg aldrig ville forvente ville være mine fans.
“Jeg har ikke set "Creed’ endnu; Jeg kun fokuseret på denne kamp. Jeg ønsker at skabe min egen 'Creed’ øjeblikke i denne kamp.
“Alt i alt synes jeg, det er sandsynligvis om en lige så matchet kamp. Du har to bestemte fyre kæmper for deres egne personlige årsager; han kæmper med en kræft historie, Jeg er også kæmper med at. Min onkel døde af kræft, så jeg kæmper med et stykke ham så godt.
“Jeg er bare Peter Quillin. Alt hvad jeg ved er bare gå i ringen, toget mod hvem det er, uanset hvem det er, og gøre mit bedste.
“Min mor sagde altid, »Nogle gange tager det at blive sat på din røv til at vide, hvor du er på’ så det kunne være nyttigt for ham, at han har smagt nederlag. Han har været der før, du kæmper med den begrundelse, at du ikke nogensinde ønsker at være der igen, eller han kunne har endda fået bedre, efter at sidde på hans røv, nu vil han til at kæmpe hårdere.
“Min forudsigelse for Lørdag? En ny verdensmester.
“Jeg har aldrig været i denne slags øjeblik, før hvor jeg måtte kæmpe en af ​​mine venner. Du vil aldrig såre din ven, men i denne kamp, Jeg ønsker at såre Danny så hvad betyder, at fortælle dig om vores venskab lige der? Nogle gange vil du ikke ønsker at være venner med den fyr, der slog dig op.
“Det kommer til at blive lidt ligesom juli 4th men den dec. 5th. Du kommer til at forvente, fyrværkeri, to beslutsomme fyre kaste slag forsøger at vinde for to forskellige årsager, og du kommer til at få en underholdende kamp.
“Jeg bare nødt til at lade mine hænder gå og ikke have en bekymring i verden, fordi når du er derinde, du er der, og der er ingen måde du kan forlade medmindre du lader i en båre, hånd op eller med uafgjort, som vi gjorde i denne kamp.”
JESUS ​​CUELLAR
“Jeg kommer her meget forberedt. I know Oquendo is a tough fighter and we are not taking him lightly. Vi er klar til en 12-round mesterskabet kamp.

“Vi ved, at der vil være en masse af puertoricanere støtte ham, men de vil ikke ændre noget. De kan ikke komme i ringen.

“Du kommer til at se en fantastisk kamp på lørdag and you’re going to see Jesus Cuellar walk out of the ring a world champion.

“Jeg ønsker at bekæmpe det bedste i divisionen. Der er mange gode krigere, og jeg vil have dem alle. Jeg har ingen frygt, og jeg er meget sikker på mine evner.”
JONATHAN Oquendo
“I come ready to fight. I didn’t want to take off a lot of time after I beat Jhonny Gonzalez. Muligheden for en verden titel skud kom, og jeg var nødt til at tage det.

“Jeg ved, at han er en meget stærk fighter, men vi kommer til at vinde. Jeg er glad for at være her i New York med den puertoricanske fanskare bag mig. Jeg troede aldrig jeg ville kæmpe for en verden titel her i New York på den største scene.

“Det kommer til at være en krig. I like to stay there in the pocket. It’s going to be blood in the ring and you can expect that på lørdag.

“Jeg havde en stor træningslejr op i Palm Beach, Florida for første gang forlader Puerto Rico, min hjemby til træning, men på lørdag vil du se en stor Jonathan Oquendo og jeg vil komme ud sejrende.
“Jeg har trænet siden efter kampen med Jhonny Gonzalez. Jeg gik til Mexico for at besøge Jomfru af Guadalupe og atMandag Jeg var uddannelse og for mig var det fremragende.
“Min sidste sejr gav mig en masse mere energi, meget mere sult og jeg kender på lørdag vi vil komme igennem sejrende.
“Cuellar er en meget stærk bokser, der udøver masser af pres, og vi er klar til at. Vi kender hans post og den store succes, at han har haft. Han er den nuværende mester og vil være indtil 5th.
“Jeg har altid ønsket at kæmpe her i New York, og jeg havde aldrig troet, at det ville være for en verden titel.
“Det er ligegyldigt, hvilken vej, uanset om det er en KO eller afgørelse, på lørdag Jeg har tænkt mig at vinde.”
CHRIS ALGIERI
“Jeg føler en meget mere komfortabel nu med (træner) John David Jackson og har en anden camp. Vi fik flere uger med ham og har ikke rigtig stoppet uddannelse. Nu tror jeg, vi kan bosætte sig i en lidt mere, foretage nogle justeringer, som ikke var i stand til at foretage forudgående, men nu føler jeg mig meget mere behageligt.
“At være en favorit eller ikke ændrer ikke hvordan jeg forbereder en kamp, ​​men absolut, dette er kampen af ​​sit liv. Jeg har været her før kampene større navne end mig selv, men det er bare sådan livscyklus boksning.
“Barclays Center er min foretrukne sted at kæmpe. Jeg har haft mine bedste præstationer her og ventilatoren support har altid været fantastisk. Så jeg glæder mig til at sætte på en anden stor udstilling.
“Barclays Center er en premiere spillested og det er fantastisk og let for mine Long Island venner til at komme ud og få ret i der.
“Jeg har lært og fået mere komfortabel i ringen nu, men det bliver en hård kamp at kæmpe. Alle på dette niveau er godt, så jeg har fået til at gå ud og udføre.
“Jeg føler fantastisk, Jeg føler stærkere, alle siger jeg ser bedre. Min magt har afgjort steget nu, hvor jeg er i en højere klasse, og jeg gør vægten meget let.”
ERICK BONE
“Camp har været stærk, Det har været fantastisk, det har været en af ​​de bedste lejre, jeg har haft hidtil.
“Jeg føler mig godt, fordi ALGIERI har et stort navn. Det kommer til at være en udfordring, men i boksning når du får i ringen er det ligegyldigt hvem der kommer i første eller som kommer i sidste i disse kampe. Der er ingen A og B, de er så tæt.
“Det har været meget positivt at være her i Brooklyn for at gøre mit lejr og uddannelse her. At være i stand til at sparre med de mange store boksere, der er her, det hele er en positiv oplevelse.
“For fans, der vil se mig på lørdag, Jeg tror, ​​at jeg er en stor bokser, og de vil se en stor kamp. De bør holde øje med mig, fordi de vil huske mit navn.
“Vi kommer til at bokse, og jeg er uddannet til at vinde, og vi er forberedt på netop det.”
MARCUS BROWNE
“Du kan forvente fyrværkeri, fart, god boksning evne, men, vigtigst, og W. Jeg føler, at jeg er i den bedste form af mit liv og jeg er klar til at sætte på et godt show

“Staten Island vil komme ud for at støtte, men jeg er en New York fighter igennem. Hele byen vil være der støtter mig.

“Han er høj, kaster en masse stempler. Vi kommer til at være klar til hvad han bringer. Han kan få højre glade, og vi vil være klar til at imødegå, at.

“Alle, der kæmper mig, de er alle kommer til min 0.
“I boksning ved slutningen af ​​dagen, når man er en ung ubesejret fighter, alle ønsker at tage det ‘0’ så det er det, der gør fyre sulten, men for mig personligt er jeg ikke bekymret for, at. Jeg er bare bekymret for, hvad jeg har tænkt mig at gøre, og hvad vi har arbejdet på i gymnastiksalen for at anvende denne på kampen aften kommer Lørdag.”
HEATHER HARDY
“Jeg havde ingen pause under Thanksgiving, Vi gik lige igennem; kendsgerning min mor er at have hele vores familie over søndag til Thanksgiving middag. Det kommer til at være en fest, og jeg har tænkt mig at spise min kartoffelmos som en god irsk pige formodes at.”
“En ting jeg kan sige om min modstander er, at hun kæmper som en mester slagsmål. Der er en anden kaliber af kampfly, at du går derind med, og hun er ikke en quitter, hun giver ikke op. Jeg kunne ikke skræmme hende, Jeg kunne ikke skubbe hende rundt, og det er noget, jeg har forberedt. Hun ved, hvad jeg har, og hun er ikke bange for at stå tå til tå med mig, så det kommer til at blive en kamp.
“Hendes talent gør motivere mig. Det bringer noget ud af mig, og det lægger på en bedre show for fans, og det giver et bedre show for kvindelige boksning. Holly Holm ikke bevise, at Ronda Rousey ikke kunne kæmpe, Det viste sig, at mere end én kvinde kunne bekæmpe samtidig. Så, når to kvinder kan gå derind og virkelig gå på det og give folk et show, det er ikke bare en pige gør et stort stykke arbejde, det er to kvinder.
“Jeg glæder mig til at bevise, at jeg er mesteren, at jeg er den “First Lady” af Barclays center.
“Jeg har holdt på denne sejrsrække, og jeg tror, ​​jeg er klar til de mere elite krigere. Jeg betragter mig selv til virkelig at være en udfordrer på dette punkt, så jeg ser frem til dette. Jeg vil gerne begynde at matche op for verden titler og alle de piger, der har fået dem.
“Min træner siger altid, at der kun er fire slag i boksning, du bedre lære at gøre dem perfekt hver gang du smider dem, og de får der. Så, Jeg har det godt, oplevet, blot at være omkring visse ting, ikke bliver overrasket af noget, fordi jeg har set det før. Alle disse ting spiller ind på det.
“Det er surrealistisk at være i denne position. Jeg kan stadig ikke tro nogle gange folk sige "hey champ’ og jeg siger "hvad? ja det er mig.’ Bare for at være forbundet med dette, og hvordan folk tænker på mig, at se mig, at blive nævnt på dette kort er en ære.”
YURI FOREMAN
“Jeg gør ikke forudsigelser, men jeg kan forudsige, at jeg kommer til at vinde.
“Jeg har det godt, med dette comeback jeg føler disse små sommerfugle her og der. Jeg er glad for, at det er lige her. Træningen er alle gjort.
“Præparatet har været stor, Jeg elsker den rutinemæssige, Jeg kan lide at udfordre mig selv og presse mig selv til grænsen ekstra hårdt, men det er en ny følelse. Jeg forsøger også at bevare min cool og ikke få ind i mit hoved.
“Der er ekstra motivation, fordi der er så mange store krigere på dette kort og alle ønsker at fremvise deres talent, inklusive mig.
“Mit mål er at gå op ad stigen, blive en succes og udfordre verdensmesteren, hvem det kan være på det tidspunkt.”
WILL Rosinski
“Jeg kender ham, fordi vi sparred en masse. Jeg ved de justeringer, jeg havde at gøre, vi er klar til, fordi vi var foran hinanden, men nogle gange er du bare holde det samme spil planen.”
“På en uge til uge grundlag, Jeg træner i dag og arbejde nat eller arbejde i dag og træne om natten, afhænger. På en nat tour Jeg træner i morgen derefter arbejde nat Touren, stå af og gå tilbage til uddannelse. Så, Jeg kan ikke være hjem for omkring en dag og halvdelen. Mit engagement er 100 procent, det er ingen problemer overhovedet.
“Mit mål er at kæmpe for en verden titel. Det er et fælles mål i boksning. Jeg ønsker at tjene penge og nyde frugterne af mit arbejde.
“Dette er en nem uge, min vægt er godt. At være på 174 ikke for tung for mig, så jeg er ikke rigtig sutte at gøre vægten sidste minut. Jeg vejede i motionsrummet på 173½ i går så jeg rehydrerende op til 175/176 temmelig nemt.
“Der er faktisk nogle ligheder mellem kampene og bliver en brandmand, fordi det er en kontrolleret kaos, som de siger. Samme idé med kampen, du går amok i dit hoved, men du bliver nødt til at holde styret og ophold på dit spil planen. Hvis dit hjørne fortæller dig noget, du har fået til at tage det i og bruge det til næste runde.”
JOE SMITH JR.
“Træningslejr har stået rigtig godt, gjort en masse sparring og en masse løb. Jeg føler stor at gå ind i kampen, Jeg føler i den bedste form af mit liv og jeg er klar til at sætte på et godt show.
“Jeg tror ikke, der er problemer, virkelig, at min modstander kommer til at præsentere mig med, men jeg er i den bedste form i mit liv, så længe jeg lod mine hænder gå der er ikke noget, han kan gøre.
“Jeg er en stor puncher, og jeg glæder mig til at smide en masse hårde slag og sat på et godt show.
“Det er en stor mulighed, Det føles godt at være en del af noget som dette.
“Jeg forudser, at der vil være en masse slag kastet og sandsynligvis på et tidspunkt i kampen, jeg sandsynligvis vil skade Will og få ham ud derfra.”
