Q: За Бенсън ... Има ли някаква допълнителна мотивация да се докажете в тази битка след начина, по който приключи последната битка?

Benson Henderson: Бих казал, че няма много допълнителна мотивация в тази битка. Аз съм доста силно мотивиран човек. Искам да спечеля всичките си битки. Не се нуждая от допълнителни стимули. Искам да имам вдигната ръка във всяка една битка.

Q: Това е вашата втора битка за титлата в Bellator. Има ли нещо, което научихте от първата обиколка, която въвеждате в тази битка?

Benson Henderson: Не знам дали има нещо, което научих от последната битка за титлата, просто да се чувствам по -удобно в клетката на Bellator и да свикна с разходката и да намеря моя ритъм.

Q: Сега се борите за титлата. Мислите ли за себе си като за лек? Тук ли възнамерявате да отседнете или е възможно друго пътуване до средна категория в бъдеще?

Benson Henderson: Не бих казал, че смятам себе си за лек непременно. За мен, е 155 паунда. или 170 паунда., където и да са по -интересните и забавни мачове. Но, Първо най-важното, Трябва да се грижа за бизнеса в събота нощ.

Q: Споменахте забавни и интересни битки. Заглавието е нещо, за което мислите? Историята на седмицата е шампион в две дивизии в другата промоция. Това мечта ли си за себе си в кариерата си или просто искаш да останеш и да бъдеш най -доминиращият шампион в лека категория, който можеш да бъдеш?

Benson Henderson: Отивам да си взема този колан 155 паунда., но след това не бих казал, че коланите предлагат много допълнителни стимули. Очевидно коланите са страхотни и смисълът зад колана е, че си най -добрият на планетата и това означава много да кажеш, че си най -добрият в тази тежест, но не се боря непременно само за колана. Искаш колана, но в момента всичко, върху което се концентрирам, е четири дни от сега и човек на име Майкъл Чандлър.

Q: За Майкъл ... Мислили ли сте някога да опитате друг колан? Знам, че е в началото на титлата ти, но минало ли ви е това през ума? И, ако все пак сте отишли ​​за друг колан, ще бъде ли за полусредна категория или полупечка?

Michael Chandler: Не съм се замислял много за това. За мен, Просто търся най -големия бой, който мога да получа. Знам, че няма как да направя 145 паунда., откакто обикалям около 190 паунда., между битките. Така, Не се интересувам от загуба на мускулна маса, за която съм работил толкова усилено. Ако нещо, Бих скочил до 170 паунда., но в момента съм съсредоточен върху битката си тази събота вечер и съм развълнуван да изляза и да изпълня.

Q: Защо Хендерсън е важен противник за вашата кариера?

Michael Chandler: Всеки противник е важен. Всеки път, когато се бием, поставяме се, препитанието ни, нашите записи, и нашата репутация на линия. При мен така се случва, Имам възможност да се бия с човек, който е бил шампион и е направил някои страхотни неща в спорта. Но за щастие, това е подходящото време за мен и грешното време за него. Изключително съм развълнуван да отида там и да направя изявление с тази битка в събота нощ. Той определено е страхотен, желаещ противник, но съм развълнуван да отида там и да завърша.

Q: За MVP ... Очевидно, това беше фантастична година за вас в Bellator, особено вашето представяне в Лондон. Имате ли пръст върху пулса на поп културата в момента и има ли нещо, от което черпите вдъхновение, което искате да използвате в някакъв развлекателен фактор в бойната нощ?

MVP: Да, Винаги съм социално осведомен, но първо трябва да свърша работата и това е най -важното.

Q: В момента, битките в различни класове на тегло и битките в множество дивизии изглеждат ярост в момента и знам, че в миналото споменахте възможността да се понижите до 155 паунда., това ли е нещо, което все още ви интересува?

MVP: В момента, не. Точно сега, Фокусиран съм само върху битките в полусредна категория.

Q: Ако можете да запишете победа над Фернандо Гонсалес, колко още битки и колко още победи мислите, преди да сте в тази снимка на заглавието и да се борите за титлата?

MVP: Това всъщност не е основната ми грижа. Просто излизам там и се забавлявам и ще продължа да го правя, докато не се окажа в позицията, в която би трябвало да съм.

Q: For Michael Chandler…With you watching Benson from a far for a long time, what did you think of him as his career progressed?

Michael Chandler: Benson’s had a phenomenal career. Едно време, he was the UFC champion and I was the Bellator champion. He was ranked number one and I was ranked number three in the world and it was always that “what if” matchup. What if these two guys could fight…and now we finally get to see. He’s continued to impress. He’s continued to win. Great careers and great legacies can’t be had without great opponents. I look at Benson Henderson as exactly that, but I’ll be damned if I’m going to step into that cage в събота night and lose this belt. I’ve trained my tail off, I’ve gone through some of the toughest hardships that anyone can go through in this sport…losing three fights in a row, coming back, and believing that no matter what, my next big breakthrough is right around the corner. I never once thought about quitting, where I think a lot of people in that situation would. Where I’ve been and where I am now, I’m confident and I’m excited to just go out there and put it all on the line against one of the best in the world and one of the biggest names in the sport. This is a great opportunity on Spike TV, на живо и безплатно.

Q: For Fernando…question regarding the video packages that Michael Page has produced and released this year, most recently during Halloween. Did you watch them and what was your reaction to the video packages?

Фернандо Гонзалес: I watched both of the videos and thought it was kind of funny, especially the last one. Bad choice of food products I guess. He’s basically eating balls and drinking milk, while cupping and savoring the taste. Така, I don’t know if I should take that as a call out, but I think the victory alone will be enough for me.

Q: With Michael (Страница) on the line right now, does Fernando have any sort of message for him leading up to the fight?

Фернандо Гонзалес: It’s the same message that I gave before. Just show up. I respect the fighter, but after this he’ll congratulate me and thank me for making him a better fighter. Той е труден, but he hasn’t been tested and I’m going to give him his first loss.

Q: Michael do you have a response to that?

MVP: I’m allergic to bullshit, so there’s no point in responding.

Q: For Benson Henderson…In the title eliminator fight in Anaheim, you had a calm and deliberate demeanor throughout that fight and before we could really see you explode, Pitbull was taken away with an injury. Are you going to look to set a faster pace with Chandler, or are we going to see a more measured response?

Benson Henderson: We’ll see how it plays out. It’s hard to dictate and say exactly what I’m going to do. If I was an NFL coach, I would not be one of those coaches that has the first 15 plays of the game scripted out and no matter what happens, we’re sticking to these 15 plays. За мен, I have to feel it out and go with the flow. Но, for me I don’t think this is going to be a slow pace fight. I’m expecting this to be one of the most high paced, action-packed fights you’ve seen in the Bellator cage.

DANNY GARCIA
On Keith Thurman being ringside on the Spike announcing crew
He will just get an up close and personal look at what will happen to him in March. I hope he’s paying attention.
I am excited to give the Philly fans a great fight. This is an opportunity to give back and that is most important to me. I’ve been training really hard and I’m going to give 100 percent for my city.
I am just going in the ring and be myself. Seek and destroy. I am taking this one round at a time. I’m looking to be smart and break him down. When the opportunity comes, I’m taking it and putting on a show.
I am not looking past this fight. I have tunnel vision and have never looked past anyone. I know he is coming to win, but I am ready mentally and physically to get the job done.
This is going to be a great night. It’s an exciting card from top to bottom. Young local fighters getting a chance to show their skills is great for the sport and great for Philadelphia.
ANGEL GARCIA, Баща на Дани & Треньор
Thurman may be on the outside looking in в събота, but he’s going to see what he has in store for him in March.
Billy Briscoe (Vargas’ треньор) is another Philly guy like me and I know he’s going to try his best. But they’re fighting the champ and they know they have their hands full. He may think he knows our game plan but he really doesn’t.
I’m excited for Danny to be fighting at home. It’s a great opportunity to give back. I’m expecting Danny to look great in the ring and get the win.

PHILADELPHIA (Ноември 9, 2016) – Undefeated world champion Danny “Swift” Garcia talked about some of his favorite moments and biggest influences from his long career in advance of his Премиер боксови Champions на Шип конфронтация тази събота against Colombia’s Samuel Vargas from Temple University’s Liacouras Center in Philadelphia.
Coverage on Шип започва 9 p.m. И/8 p.m. CT and features undefeated rising star Джарет Хърд battling former title challenger Jo Jo Dan plus former world champion Javier Fortunataking on unbeaten Omar Douglas.

Here is what Garcia had to say when looking back at some moments from his career so far:
Q: What do you consider to be the best performance of your career?
Дани Гарсия: The best performance of my career, Аз вярвам, was against Lucas Matthysse. I was the unified world champion, I was a 3-to-1 underdog, he was knocking everybody out. I don’t think one person in the world thought I’d win that fight, but I knew deep in my heart I was the better fighter.
Q: What’s your favorite punch in the ring?
DG: My favorite punch is actually my right hand, but for some reason the left hook knocks everybody out. So I don’t know, един. Whatever punch lands, I try to use all my punches and different weapons in different angles. I try to use each hand as the set-up punch for the next punch. So I don’t really have a favorite punch. A lot of people think it’s my left hook, I like the right hand better, but the left hook just knocks everybody out.
Q: Which opponent you fought hit you the hardest?
DG: The two strongest opponents I’ve fought with the best punching power were Kendall Holt and Lucas Matthysse. They kind of had the same kind of power. It was like a thumping shot, and when they hit you, you felt likeOoh, this man can punch.
Q: Who was the hardest opponent for you to hit in your career?
DG: The hardest opponent I had to hit was probably Lamont Peterson. He was moving a lot, he wasn’t trying to engage with me at all, was trying to use the ring a lot with lateral movement. He came with a good game plan.
Q: Who was the fastest opponent you’ve faced?
DG: Fastest fighter, hands down, Amir Khan. He is the fastest fighter I’ve ever fought.
Q: What was the best atmosphere you’ve ever fought in?
DG: Barclays Center is No. 1. I’d probably say the Zab Judah fight. We hold the gate (рекорд), the most fans to go to Barclays for a boxing event. It was like a concert.
Q: When was the maddest your dad ever got at you during a fight?
DG: My dad is always mad. He’s happy sometimes, but when it’s fight time, he’s always mad. That’s all I can say.
Q: Are there any fighters you watched growing up who you style yourself after? Or are there any fighters out there who maybe remind you of yourself?
DG: I take a lot from different fighters. (Felix) Trinidad, I loved his left hook. Prince Naseem Hamed, I loved how he wore the animal print, and then I did that. Roy Jones Jr., Бърнард Хопкинс, those are fighters I looked up to. (Жулио Сезар) Чавес, going to the body, that left hook to the body. I take a lot of things from other fightersarsenals and put it into my style. But I never try to be any other fighter. I try to be myself.
Q: When you meet him next March, where will Keith Thurman rank among the opponents you’ve faced in your career?
DG: Както казах, Бил съм се 10 current or former world champions in my career. He’s just another guy, another champ I need to dethrone. That’s basically it.

В съвместно основното събитие на вечерта, undefeated British phenom Michael "Venom" Page (11-0) и собствената на Калифорния Фернандо Гонзалес (25-13) duke it out in a welterweight thriller and Adam Piccolot (8-0) придобива Brandon Girtz(14-4) in a lightweight clash.

Here is what the participants had to say Tuesday:
DANNY GARCIA
“Тя се чувства страхотно, че се бори у дома. This is what Philadelphia needed. We’re a fight town. I feel like people don’t know that all over the world. We have a great history and a lot of world champions from here, and they’ve been kind of been overshadowed. It’s an honor to be able to bring a fight back to these fans.
It’s very important to give back. I’m so happy to have the opportunity. With Thanksgiving and Christmas around the corner I’m sure we’ll be making a big impact. There are a lot of families in Philadelphia who really need it and I’m glad I can help.
I’m very lucky to be where I am. It takes a lot of hard work, but you also need the right timing. My dad and I had a vision. We never gave up on that vision. We’ve been through so much in life, we didn’t want to stop till we reached our goals.
The city of Philadelphia needs a champion. They need someone to give them a hometown show. There’s a lot of excitement with the Eagles and Sixers right now, and I’m going to give them another thing to cheer for.
It’s a very short trip for me to the arena so I’m happy about that. I feel comfortable. I’m in my own backyard. We’re planning to make sure Vargas is very uncomfortable.
I love seeing these young kids from Philadelphia on the card. I love giving them an opportunity to get fights in front of their hometown fans too. There are a lot of doors opening up for young fighters from Philadelphia and I love that I can be a part of it.
I know Billy Briscoe (Vargas’ треньор) will have some tricks. We’re very familiar with each other and I know what kind of trainer he is. He’s never prepared to face someone like me.
I’ve watched the tape on Vargas. He’s a gritty fighter. He’s definitely a tough guy who won’t give up. I have to be ready. I’m going to have to be prepared. I feel ready to go.
I had to grow into 140-pounds before I started knocking people out. This will be my third fight at welterweight and I think I’m going to feel as good as I have in my career. That’s why we’re ready to take on the best.
ОМАР DOUGLAS
This is just a task. I’ve been preparing for this moment all my life. Ever since I was eight-years-old. Not to take anything away from Fortuna, but he’s a gatekeeper in the division. I have to get through him to get to what I want.
Camp has been camp. It’s rough at times but it’s part of the process. I embrace it all though. I love being in camp. I’m bored when I’m not at camp so I’m definitely happiest when I’m in the gym.
My weight is on point and on target. We’re just slowing it down and getting ready to make sure I’m peaking on fight night.
Being able to fight in Philadelphia means the world to me. This is where I started my boxing career. I’ve been coming up the highway from Delaware to fight since I was a kid. Now a win here can propel me to another level.
Fortuna is where I want to be at. I want to get through him. I can’t look past him. I’m focused on Javier Fortuna and writing another chapter in my story.
You can expect a very exciting fight on Ноември 12. Hopefully he’s everything that people claim he is. I know that I am and I’m definitely going to come out on top.
ANGEL GARCIA, Баща на Дани & Треньор
There are people in this country who don’t have food. My parents were farmers when they came to this country. When I was a child I was hungry. I ran around with no shoes and I wore my brother’s clothes. The first thing Danny and I do when we get in the ring is say a prayer and bow our heads for the kids in the world with nothing to eat. I always told Danny and my family to appreciate whatever we have gotten. We’re using our position now to make a difference.
Danny is completely ready for this fight. He’s healthy and on track to make weight. We’ll be in the ring on Ноември 12 and I think that if Samuel Vargas comes to fight and stands toe-to-toe with Danny, we’re going to end the night early.
We’ve brought in a lot of young prospects and guys with more experience for Danny to spar. I try to mix it up on Danny and keep him 100 процента готов. We can’t take anything away from Vargas though. I know Danny is a very talented fighter and he gives me what I want. He’s always learning.
We don’t watch a lot of tape. My job is not to watch the opponent, it’s to train Danny Garcia. You can’t forget about what your fighter does well.
These are big things for Danny. He’s the champion and he should be on exciting cards like this. We’re looking to keep building and building his career.
We’re keeping Danny focused. He knows that he can’t underestimate anybody. We take every opponent very seriously. The 32 people that he fought before were taken just as seriously as Vargas. We don’t change anything or take anything away. I make sure his circle is tight and that camp is focused.
I’m happy because headlining in Philadelphia is Danny’s dream. What makes Danny happy makes me happy. That’s what it’s about at the end of the day.

Get to Know Jarrett Hurd

PHILADELPHIA (Октомври 19, 2016) – In the last year, undefeated 154-pound contender “Swift” Джарет Хърд has rocketed to the top of the stacked super welterweight division, putting himself squarely in the hunt for a world title. Събота, Ноември 12, Hurd continues his championship march as he takes on once-beaten Jorge Cota в Премиер боксови Champions на Шип action from Temple University’s Liacouras Center.

Hurd enters this fight coming off of two impressive victories over previously unbeaten fighters. През ноември 2015 he dominated Frank Galarza and stalked him around the ring before ending his night in the sixth round. Hurd followed that up in June of this year, when he stopped Carlos Molina in the final round on CBS as the co-main event of the Keith Thurman vs. Shawn Porter showdown. Hurd’s blinding right uppercut in the first round sent Molina to the canvas and the връхна точка earned him a spot on SportsCenter’s Top 10 Plays.
Get to know more about the rising star as he talks about his introduction to the sport and some of his personal favorites:
(On his team): I have the best team in the world. Ernesto Rodriguez is my head trainer and we do our work in Temple Hills, Maryland. Ernesto is great because he trains me for the style that fits my skills best.
There is no ego in my team. We’re all working toward the same goal and everyone plays their role perfectly. With each fight we’re getting closer to reaching the ultimate goalbecoming a world champion.
(On his start in boxing): My father first put me in the ring to learn how to defend myself. I was 15-years-old and didn’t really know how to fight. I took to it quickly though and it was obviously one of the best things that ever happened to me.
(On his nickname): I got my nickname from the gym. I looked calm and collective in the gym and people noticed. They said I looked swift in there. Now it’s “Swift” и “Swift” on the same card and it’s going to be electric.
(On his boxing idols): I tried to emulate a lot of defensive fighters. Roy Jones Jr. and Floyd Mayweather are my favorite fighters of all time. I liked James Toney because of his shoulder roll and the Philly shell style.
(Favorite sport/team): I watch football. I only the watch the Washington Redkins though. I’ve always been a huge fan.
(Favorite television show): Power on Starz
(Favorite movie): Deadpool
(Favorite junk food): Pizza
(Favorite health food): Kale
(Celebrity crush): Keri Hilson and Nia Long
(Perfect Vacation): Definitely a cruise to Puerto Rico. I’ve never been there but I want to experience it.
(On his homemade “All Access” videos): I just love to be out there and giving fans a chance to feel connected to me. My childhood friend, Christopher Walton, picked up a camera and just started recording me in the ring and outside of the ring one day. He started getting some better equipment so we decided to do these videos to help promote me. The fans are important to me and I want them to feel like they’re a part of my journey.
