Burada mətbuat konfrans iştirakçıları demək idi nə Bazar ertəsi L.A at Conga Otaq. Live:

 

Mikey GARCIA

 

“A world champion like Sergey Lipinets is more exciting an opponent for me than an easy title defense. I wanted a challenge and this man presents that. He’s a bigger man naturally. He’s going to be very hungry and motivated. He knows a victory over me launches his career to the top. That’s going to make this an interesting fight.

 

“To win a world title in a fourth division is a big deal to me. My dad always wanted a three-division world champion, and now I have a chance to give him a fourth title. That’s something that really excites me.

 

“It’s been a great return to boxing since my layoff. When I came back, I wanted to move fast and take on big challenges. That’s what we’ve been doing so far. I want to take on any challenges that people think I can’t achieve. I think slowly we’re proving to everyone that I’m better than ever and I’m going to keep taking on the kinds of fights that will cement my legacy.

 

“It would be a great accomplishment to be in the discussion with guys like Manny Pacquiao and Juan Manuel Marquez, that would be a win in itself. But it wasn’t on my mind when taking this fight. I just want to keep fighting the best out there. There’s still more for me to accomplish until I’m on the same level as Pacquiao and Marquez.

 

"Böyük bir mübarizə olacaq. Like I’ve said, the challenge for me is that I’ll be fighting the bigger man. Döyüş gecə, that advantage he has on me might be enough to make it that much more exciting. It will be interesting to see how well I adapt to the size. I have to make adjustments to overcome those challenges. This should give the fans the excitement that we want to give them.

 

“My only focus is on Fevral 10 against Sergey Lipinets. That’s my target throughout the entire camp. There may be more opportunities for me on the horizon, but you’ll see on fight night that I’m one hundred percent focused.

 

“I know that I have the possibility to be the biggest star in boxing like a Floyd Mayweather, and I think I’m on track to accomplish that. I don’t see a lot of guys in the sport with the resume of accomplishments that I have. I’m going to continue take on the best and beat my opponents convincingly.”

 

SERGEY LIPINETS

 

“Mikey Garcia is a great champion and I want to be in the position that he’s reached in this sport. The only way there is to go through him.

 

“I’m taking on a great challenge against Mikey Garcia, and many people think I’m not ready. This is the fight that I wanted. I’ve had many obstacles in my way throughout my career and I’ve overcome them all. I’m going to overcome Mikey Garcia just like that.

 

“Every time I have sparred with top fighters, like Terrence Crawford, I have learned more about what I need to improve to get to the next level in this sport. That kind of experience has helped my confidence increase and will help me when I face Mikey Garcia.

 

“A lot of things can happen when you move up in weight. Usually people use some pop. Whatever version of Mikey Garcia shows up; I’ll be ready for him.

 

“I believe I’m going to win, Mikey believes he’s going to win, and it will all unveil in the ring. One thing I can guarantee; böyük bir mübarizə olacaq.

 

“Every fight I’ve had has been against a tough opponent who has helped get me to this point. Indi, I’m ready to fight the best, and Mikey Garcia is truly that.

 

“I had to work very hard to make the transition from champion kickboxer to a champion boxer. I did everything I had to do, moving from gym to gym and sparring everyone. I always aimed for the best and wanted to be the best at what I do.”

 

ROBERT GARCIA, Mikey’s Brother & Məşqçi

 

“We know that Sergey Lipinets is a very dangerous fighter. He’s a really strong champion. I know he’s going to be hungry because he wants to become a big name by beating Mikey.

 

“Mikey is very smart in the ring. We’re going to come in there with a good game plan. We’ll have some big sparring partners. Strong, heavy guys who will give Mikey a big challenge in sparring.

 

“Mikey has to be in great shape for this fight. You can easily win the first eight rounds, but there are still four left. You have to be able to finish the fight. A great power puncher like Lipinets can finish you in one round.”

 

Buddy mcgirt, Lipinets’ Trainer

 

“We will be prepared for any and every thing. This way, when fight night comes, we’ll have an answer for everything. The key is that we just have to be on point from the opening bell to the end. Bunun ətrafında heç bir yol yoxdur.

 

“We’re going to cover everything in training camp. You have to have every option available to you on fight night. This way, you’re never surprised in the ring. Sergey won’t go in there swinging to get a knockout, he’s going to be disciplined and focus on getting the victory.

 

“I believe that Sergey is on a mission. I know Mikey Garcia is on a mission too, and I respect that. I respect that these two men are fighting each other. Champions do what Sergey is doing, and that’s fighting the best.”

 

RICHARD SCHAEFER, Sədr & Ringstar İdman CEO

 

“This is going to be a huge night for the 140-pound division. It will be another toe-to-toe showdown at the Alamodome in San Antonio, where so many great matchups have taken place before. Biletlər yalnız-da başlayacaq $20 so we expect another great crowd of fight fans down in Texas.

 

“This matchup features two undefeated fighters, two big punchers and 50 qalibiyyət, 40 nakavt, between the two of them. These guys are both champions who are daring to be great. These are exactly the kind of fighters that the public likes. These fighters will push themselves to be great.

 

“These guys only know one thing, and that is winning. Sergey Lipinets is the biggest puncher at 140-pounds and it seems like Mikey Garcia always seeks out these big punchers.

 

“Mikey is looking to do something that only Manny Paccquiao and Juan Manuel Marquez have done, in moving up from 126 pounds through 140 pounds winning titles at each division. It is very difficult to carry that power up from featherweight. You have to tune-in to see an exciting fighter like that trying to make history.”

 

STEPHEN Espinoza, Ümumi Müdir Köməkçisi & General Manager, SHOWTIME İdman

 

“What boxing needs are great fights. Good, high quality matchups like Leo Santa Cruz vs. Carl Frampton, Keith Thurman vs. Danny Garcia and Errol Spence vs. Kell Brook. There needs consistently be good fights, and that’s what we have been doing at SHOWTIME for the last couple of years. No other network has done the quality of fights that SHOWTIME is doing. No other network is as committed to the sport as SHOWTIME has been.

 

“The best need to fight the best, and that is what Mikey Garcia has done. He came off of a two-and-a-half-year layoff and ilə 18 ay he’s had four fights, two title fights and will be going for a title in a fourth weight class, something only Manny Pacquiao and Juan Manuel Marquez have done before. That’s what great fighters do.

 

“Historically the fighters who separate themselves as legendary, are the ones who challenge themselves and travel across weight classes to seek these challenges. But there are two sides to this story. Those who have been paying attention have seen Sergey Lipinets make a lot of noise on SHOWTIME cards lately. He has risen very quickly.

 

“If you just look at Lipinets’ record, 13-0, and think about him fighting Mikey Garcia it would sound crazy. But if you look at the kind of competition he’s faced, his last seven opponents have a combined record of 163-15. That’s not something you usually see 13 fights into a career. Lipinets is a combat veteran, and whatever happens in the ring, he will be ready for it. It’s going to make for an exciting night.”

The event is presented by Premier Boks Çempionlar və Showtime canlı hava olacaq (9 dək. VƏ/6 dək. PT) etibarən Barclays Center, BROOKLYN BOKS ™ ev.
Because of inclement weather near his home in Miami, Ortiz was unable to travel to New York, but did offer his thoughts about the upcoming fight via telephone.
Canlı hadisə üçün biletlər, Dibella Əyləncə və TGB Promotions tərəfindən irəli olan, hazırda satışdadır və buradan əldə etmək olar ticketmaster.com, barclayscenter.com və ya axtararaq 800-745-3000.

Burada iştirakçılar demək idi nə Çərşənbə:
Deontay Wilder
“Mən müəyyən artikl best. I am the toughest heavyweight in the division. Mən müəyyən artikl man in the division. I don’t care what anybody else has going on. You’ve got to come through me.
When I knock him out, I want my due respect. I’m the only American heavyweight champion of the world and I am the man. Nobody is stronger physically, əqli və mənəvi. They are all scared of me.
I’m the heavyweight in the division with real knockout power. I put grown men down easily. Haqqında Noyabr 4, Ortiz is going down. Bundan sonra, you already know who is next. I’m ready to unify.
If he’s the boogeyman, I can’t wait to shine a light on him because the boogeyman is only effective at night. And we’re in New York so you already know what happened to King Kong in New York.
The game plan is the same as usual. We’re going to use my attributes. I’m going to set him up until the time comes. Ortiz has a great set of skills and I like his aggressive style. That’s one of the reasons I chose him. I wanted to beat him to prove that I am the man.
It definitely won’t go the distance. Hal-hazırda, I’m thinking about three rounds but come November 4th, it might be in the first round.
LUIS ORTIZ
I’m ready to go and excited for the fight. I want to get to Noyabr 4 so I can do what I have to do.
Wilder does a lot of talking. He’s nervous and keeps forgetting the date of the fight. I think he took this fight because he has no choice and no one else to fight.
I think Wilder is going to run in this fight. He should be careful what he says before the fight, because I think he’s going to run from me.
Wilder should sign his death sentence. I’m very different than anybody else that he’s fought. I punch harder than anybody else. I’m going to teach him not to mess with Cubans.
Some skeptics are talking about my age, but look at Mayweather. I still have my speed and my quickness.
JAY gözəl, Wilder’s Co-Manager and Trainer
Everything in camp has been going well. Last time we were here in New York we had a great crowd and it was a wonderful event. This will be an even bigger challenge. This is the fight the fans wanted and this is the fight we wanted.
Deontay has always wanted the biggest challenges. We won the belt in [Bermane] Stiverne’s hometown and we were ready to go to Russia to defend the belt. These are two guys in the division no one wants to fight, but they’ve decided to fight each other.
This is a great opportunity for Deontay to show who he is and where he is. It’s going to be well worth everyone’s time to be there at Barclays Center.
LOU Dibella, DiBella Əyləncə Prezidenti
There is nothing like a great heavyweight championship fight and on November 4th, a great champion is going to fight a great contender. This is a terrific fight.
This fight is happening because Deontay Wilder wants the world to know that he is afraid of no one, and that he’s prepared to fight anyone and he’s the best heavyweight in the world today. I could not be prouder of him for making this fight happen.
This is the toughest fight that Deontay Wilder could engage in right now. This is the most difficult opponent he possibly could fight.
Luis Ortiz is the boogeyman of this division. You haven’t heard anyone scream about fighting Luis Ortiz. A lot of people were shocked when they heard that Deontay Wilder wants to fight him. He not only wants to fight him, but he insisted upon it.
This isn’t a 43-year-old champion on his last legs in Luis Ortiz. This is a hungry beast that wants to beat Deontay Wilder. But Deontay is a champion. He’s not doing this for the money. A lot of people would think this is a dumb economic move. This is a legacy move. This is a move to prove who is the best. We’re not afraid of Anthony Joshua. If he was available on November 4th and wanted to fight, we’d fight him then.
STEPHEN Espinoza, İcra vp & GM, SHOWTIME İdman
This has been a really strong year for SHOWTIME Boxing. This will be our 23rd live boxing event on SHOWTIME this year. And they’ve been important, mənalı döyüşlərdə. Not just a big name against a nobody. Faktiki olaraq, 16 times this year on SHOWTIME we’ve featured and unbeaten fighter taking on another unbeaten fighter. We know on SHOWTIME that you’re seeing the best fighting the best. No other network is as dedicated to delivering the highest quality fights. So without question, it’s been a great year. But we may have saved the best for last here.
We have two of the top heavyweights in the world. Both undefeated with a combined record of 65-0, 60 knockouts. This is the best fight that can be made in the heavyweight division. There is no question about that. This will be the eighth heavyweight title fight we’ve featured in the last two years. The only way to get to one unified champion in the heavyweight division is to have the best fight the best, and that is what is happening here on Nov. 4, and we can’t wait.

BALTIMORE (Jan. 4, 2017) – Highly regarded Mayweather Promotions rising starGervonta “Tank” Davis (16-0, 15 Kos) is wrapping up training for his challenge of super featherweight world champion Jose “The Sniper Pedraza (22-0, 12 Kos) in the opener of a SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOKS world championship doubleheader on Şənbə, Jan. 14, etibarən Barclays Center Brooklyn yaşayır SHOWTIME (9:30 dək. VƏ/6:30 dək. PT).
The 12-rounder between the unbeaten challenger (Davis) and world champion (Pedraza) will precede an eagerly awaited 168-pound world title unification showdown between WBC Super Middleweight World Champion Badou Jack (20-1-2, 12 Kos)andIBF Super Middleweight World Champion James DeGale (23-1, 14 Kos).

Mayweather promosyonları və Dibella Əyləncə tərəfindən təbliğ edilən tədbir üçün biletlər, da başlayacaq $25. Onlar online əldə edə bilərsiniz (www.ticketmaster.com,www.barclayscenter.com) və ya axtararaq 1-800-745-3000. Biletlər Barclays Mərkəzində American Express Box Office mövcuddur. Qrup güzəştlər 844-BKLYN-GP zəng mövcuddur.

Davis, 22, overcame a childhood filled with hardships to become a prolific amateur and has been virtually unstoppable as a professional. Həvəskar olaraq (arasında 2006-2012), he entered nine tournaments and came away with gold medals in all but one. He won gold in his last four tourneys, o cümlədən 2012 National Golden Gloves Championship at 123 manat.

Since going pro in February 2013, the strong, aggressive-minded southpaw has played smash-mouth against mostly outclassed opponents, qalib 13 və onun 15 knockouts inside four rounds. To many, Davis resembles a young, smaller version of Mike Tyson in the way he walks down foes, gets on the inside and unloads lethal hooks and uppercuts. He’s gone into the ninth round once and into the sixth round twice. A winner of six straight by knockout, Davis’ lone fight to go the distance came in his ninth outing, a six-round nod over German Meraz, who went down twice, Oktyabr ayında 2014. Davis is coming off a 0:41, first-round KO over Mario Macias last İyun 3.

Although powerful, very fast and determined, the talented Davis is taking a significant leap in class and he may enter the ring as a slight underdog to Puerto Rico’s Pedraza, 27, a solid switch-hitter with first-rate skills, hərəkət və Punch güc. This will be Pedraza’s third defense of the IBF 130-pound title. He’s gone the 12-round distance four times in a row and five times since his pro debut in February 2011. At 5-feet-8½, he is two-and-a-half inches taller than Davis.
Davis, the IBF’s No. 8-ranked super featherweight, who was born and resides in Baltimore, shared thoughts on his upcoming fight from the Uptown Boxing Center in Baltimore:

You’ve been a professional for less than three years, yet you’re less than two weeks away from getting a crack at a world title. What are your thoughts about that?

It’s been my goal to fight for a world title. Mən çox əmin deyiləm. I’ve worked hard in the gym for over two months for this fight. I’ve put in the hours. I’ve had a great camp with great sparring. I’m not surprised the fight is almost here. This is perfect timing for me.

Have you done anything differently in this camp?

Maybe some little things, but not really. We take training seriously. We take all our opponents very seriously. But I have to treat it as just another fight, against another opponent. We know Pedraza is a world champion, a great fighter that comes to fight and we give him his respect as a world-class fighter. I know he’s going to be ready. He’s always ready when it’s time to get in there and do his job. But I’m prepared for him. He doesn’t know what we bring to the table.

Are you surprised you’re not favored? When was the last time you were an underdog?

I’m the underdog because he’s the world champion, that’s the reason. Bundan başqa, I feel deep inside that he’s the underdog, but that’s just my assessment. He won’t be showing me anything I haven’t already seen before.

I’ve never been the underdog in a fight, so this is a first for me.

When’s the last time you lost a fight?

I’m competitive all around and don’t like losing. I can’t remember exactly the last time I lost a fight, maybe it was three years ago. All I know for sure is that my mind entering this fight is all about winning.

Critics talk of your level of competition, or lack of. What’s your opinion of the fighters Pedraza’s successfully defended against lately?

I’m not taking anything away from Pedraza; he’s beat Stephen Smith and Edner Cherry but those guys don’t bring the power, sürət, elusiveness and angles that I do. I’m not downgrading anybody, but they’re mostly average.

Are you looking at this as an opportunity to showcase your overall skills, durability, və s.?

A lot of people don’t realize the skills and talent that I have. They see me just going in there like a little Tyson or someone like that. But I have all the tools. Qutusu necə olacağını bilirəm, how to move my feet. I have good hand speed. I work my angles and things like that. I’m an overall sound fighter, bir boksçu-ştamplayıcı.

I think this will be a wakeup call for boxing, a chance to show that I’m the one. But I’m not coming to be just the top guy. I want to be a superstar and bring joy and entertainment to the sport. Pedraza will bring out the best in me and I will steal the show.

How do you manage to stay in the moment, and not look back, or can you?

I’m so thankful that I am part of a strong team, and that I have such a great team. I believe we have the greatest team in boxing. They keep me grounded, fokuslanmışdır. They keep me from getting distracted. We all know what the main goal is. I can’t do it all myself, my coach can’t do it all himself, my manager can’t do it all himself. We believe totally in each other as a team. I listen to everything they say.

How much is your past a motivation, or is it? When you look back at your life do you have memories or nightmares?

I believe I’ve accomplished a lot. Me just being alive today, me not being in jail or in trouble outside the ring, it’s hard from where I come from. But it’s all helped me handle situations well. I’m so used to dealing with situations. I’m older and know what’s right from wrong. There’s never any pressure when I fight. I’ve won so many fights already I know what to do when I get in the ring.

How long have you known Floyd? When did you meet him and how would you describe your relationship? What does it mean for Floyd to be your promoter?

The first time I talked to Floyd (at length) was at the Adrien Broner-Shawn Porterfight (İyun 20, 2015). Me and Adrien, we’re friends and he flew me out to Las Vegas for the fight. I worked out at the Mayweather gym and Floyd liked the way I fought, my heart. But the first time I actually met and talked to him came when one of Floyd’s press tours came to Washington, D. Ç.

Floyd has always had a major impact on me and my career. I grew up around him. All of us wanted to be like him. Like Tyson and Ali were to the generations of boxers before me, Floyd was our superstar. For him to bring me under his wing, to fight for him, is unbelievably great.

DeGale worked out and answered questions for media at the Stonebridge Boxing Club as he nears his third straight fight in the United States, this time looking to return to the UK as a unified world champion.

 

Here is what DeGale had to say çərşənbə axşamı:

 

JAMES DeGale

 

“This is the best fighting the best and this fight will prove who’s the best in the divisionand I believe I am the number one super middleweight on the planet.

 

“Unification fights like this are still rare, never mind the best fighting the best, and me and Jack both wanted the fight. We both want to prove who is the best and everyone is in for a treat on Yanvar 14.

 

“I’ve got the best trainer in the world in Jim McDonnell; together we won the world title and now we’re going to unify the title. I’m going to win in style and do the business in the big New York City and come away with both belts to bring back to London.

 

“Jack’s a serious fighter, he’s a world champion, he has something I want. The winner of this will be the number in the division.

 

“Growing up, Joe Calzaghe, and Prince Naseem Hamed, they’re the ones I used to watch and I’d think, ‘I can’t wait to do that.’ Calzaghe’s one of my favorite fighters. He’s a bit similar to me. O cənub-qubka, punches bir çox salır. He’s another one who didn’t get the full credit he was due until after he retired. But that’s how boxing is.

 

“I’ve got to perform. My last couple of performances haven’t been vintage James DeGale. This is the best fighting the best, the champ fighting the champ: this is proper.

 

“I don’t get the respect. I made a bit of history. If I unify the division, going across the pond, no one’s ever done that from Britain.

 

“This is the one. I get love and support, I do have my fans, but it just feels like I look around at different fighters who haven’t done half what I’ve done and they get so much more recognition.

 

“I don’t get the credit: the full recognition, Mən etmirəm. But after this fight, people will start respecting me and knowing I’m the best.”

Junior Lightweight Champion Jose Pedraza & Super Bantamweight World Champion Amanda Serrano Represent Puerto Rico Saturday, Yanvar 14 Brooklyn-da Barclays Mərkəzində & Showtime Live

Only Puerto Rican-Born World Champions
Enter the Ring in Separate World Title Defenses
İndi satış Biletlər!
BROOKLYN (Dekabr 8, 2016)-The only two Puerto Rican-born world champions in boxing are set to show their skills and heart for boxing fans in New York as Jose “Sniper” Pedraza Amanda “Real Deal” Serrano defend their titles on Şənbə, Yanvar 14 at Barclays Center in Brooklyn and live on SHOWTIME.
Puerto Rico has such a rich boxing history with many of the sport’s greatest champions hailing from the island,” Lou DiBella bildirib, DiBella Əyləncə Prezidenti. “Hal-hazırda, there are only two Puerto Rican-born world champions, junior lightweight Jose Pedraza and junior featherweight Amanda Serrano, and I happen to promote them both. Yanvar 14 at Barclays Center in Brooklyn is a tremendous card all around, but it will also serve as a celebration of Puerto Rican pride and heritage to be able to watch the country’s only two world champions defend their titles on the same show.
Pedraza (22-0, 12 Kos) will defend his IBF Super Featherweight World Championship against hard-hitting unbeaten contender Gervonta Davis (16-0, 15 Kos)in the co-main event on SHOWTIME. With his victory in June 2015, Pedraza added his name to the distinguished list of Puerto Rican world champions. After losses suffered by Roman Martinez and McJoe Arroyo, he currently stands as the only remaining male champion born in Puerto Rico.
Being the only male Puerto Rican-born world champion is something that I’m very proud of,” Said Pedraza. “It is also a big weight that I carry on my shoulders. I know that I have to give my best because I am not just a champion of the ring. I am a champion of my island of Puerto Rico. Knowing that all of Puerto Rico will be in there with me encourages me to give my all every time I step into the ring.
“Haqqında Yanvar 14 I will be facing a great boxer with a lot of talent, sürət və güc. Lakin, I will let him know what it feels like to share a ring with a real world champion. Davis will enter the ring as a young, hungry unbeaten challenger, but the only thing he will leave with is the first loss on his record.
Serrano (30-1-1, 23 Kos), a four-division world champion, will defend her WBO Super Bantamweight World Championship against former two-division world champion Yazmin Rivas (35-9-1, 10 Kos) in the SHOWTIME EXTREME main event at 7 dək. VƏ/PT. The winner of the Serrano-Rivas matchup will earn the prestigious WBC Diamond championship. Serrano’s first world title victory in 2011 made her just the third Puerto Rican-born woman to win a world title.
This bout also signifies the first nationally televised women’s world title bout in nearly a decade, since Mary Jo Saunders fought Valerie Mahfood on March 30, 2007 (ESPN2).
It feels fantastic to be fighting on SHOWTIME for the first time and sharing the stage at Barclays Center with my countryman Jose Pedraza,” deyən Serrano. “Knowing that both he and I are currently the only two Puerto Rican-born world champions, kişi və ya qadın, in boxing today is an honor.
As for Yazmin Rivas being a tough fight, that’s only on paper. I will prove that I am in a different league. There’s a reason why finding someone to fight me wasn’t easy. I’m the hardest hitting female fighter in boxing today. Rivas will soon know that personally.
Pedraza, Caguas of, and Serrano, Carolina, are the latest in a long line of world class and beloved Puerto Rican champions who will look to put on impressive performances and make a mark nationally with victories in front of the friendly New York crowd. New York City boasts nearly one million Puerto Rican residents, making it the largest population of Puerto Ricans outside of Puerto Rico.
I met Amanda Serrano at this year’s Puerto Rican Day Parade in New York,” Said Pedraza. “She is a kind woman and I can see that, as a champion, Serrano is dedicated and always gives her best. I am proud of her for representing our people of Puerto Rico very well. Döyüş gecə, Barclays Center will shine with Luz Boricua as Amanda and I seek glory for Puerto Rico together.
To be able to defend my world title in Brooklyn, where I live, bir xəyal gerçəkləşir,” deyən Serrano. “New York is home to so many Puerto Ricans and I am sure they will really come out in support of this great event. I am truly a fan of my people. I would like to thank Lou DiBella, the best promoter in boxing, for giving me the chance to show the world why I am the ‘Real Deal’! I would also like to thank SHOWTIME for the opportunity. Mr. Stephen Espinoza, I will not disappoint you.

Participants were on hand to discuss the exciting doubleheader on Yanvar 14 and celebrating the long awaited return of boxing to The Big Apple.
Burada iştirakçılar çərşənbə demək idi nə:
JACK Badou
I think this will be an exciting fight. I’m going to give it my all and he’s going to give it his all. This is a bigger fight than anything we’ve been a part of. He’s going to turn it up and so will I.
Now it’s me and DeGale. All the other fights are in the past. We’ve had different results against the same fighters. But none of that matters, it’s time to fight.
A real champion can take a loss and bounce back. It shows what kind of person you are. I’ve proven I’m mentally tough.
Boxing is not dead. It’s here to stay. There are some very good fights coming up. Probably even more next year.
I came from Sweden, a country that has no boxing. Now I’m here headlining in New York for a unification fight. göy həddi deyil. I always stay humble and never forget where I came from.
It’s not going to matter what people think on fight night. DeGale is definitely one of the top guys in the division. He’s a road warrior. He comes over here and fights guys in their backyards. He deserves a lot of credit. That’s why this fight is so big. We both want to be great.
I like being the underdog. If I’m the underdog in this fight, then that’s perfect for me. There won’t be any excuses when I beat him.
I just try to stay humble win after win and keep looking forward to bigger and better things. After this fight come talk to me about who is the best in the division.
I don’t want to compare myself to anyone else but I’ve had a couple of good years. Now we’re working to have two even better years.
I made a mistake and got caught in my loss. I was able to bounce back and it made me a way better fighter. It was definitely a blessing in disguise. People are still overlooking me because of it. I look at it as a good thing.
Everything happens for a reason. I’m very blessed to be here in Brooklyn. This is my second home in America. I trained at Gleason’s Gym in 2009 and now I’m headlining at Barclays Center. It’s amazing.
JAMES DeGale
“O, burada. The big one. Ən yaxşısı ən yaxşısı. Number one against number two. Badou Jack is a very good fighter. He doesn’t do anything spectacular, but he’s a compete fighter.
I have that X-factor. I’ve lost before and I’m not going to lose again. I’ve come too far in my life to lose this opportunity.
“Haqqında Yanvar 14, Brooklyn is in for a treat. You will not want to miss this one. Make sure you get your tickets.
My people in London can’t wait for me to fight at home. It’s coming. But first I want to take over in America.
New York is one of my favorite cities. It’s a boxing city. I watched Santa Cruz vs. Frampton and it was a wicked atmosphere. I can’t wait to be in there.
I’m very confident in my abilities. I believe I’m the best in the division and one of the best in the world. I’ve been waiting for this fight for a long time and I’m ready to get in there.
I think in the last three fights I’ve shown everything. I haven’t been getting the respect that I deserve. I’ve beaten everyone put in front of me. This is what I love to do.
I’m a natural super middleweight. I want to be in fights where people think I’m going to lose. I’ll challenge anybody.
Me and Badou Jack are two different fighters. I think I’m going to beat him wide on the scorecards or stop him.
Jose Pedraza
I’m thankful to everyone here and my people from New York who I know will be supporting me on fight night.
I expect this to be a very exciting fight. I’m going to be ready for anything that Davis will bring into the ring. I’m going to take care of business.
I’m very privileged to help with this cause and to help push boxing in New York. I’m going to represent my people on Yanvar 14 and I’m very proud of the opportunity.
If Davis says he has to be killed to be beaten, then he’s going to have to go down.
I’m undefeated and I will remain undefeated after Yanvar 14. I know Davis is a strong kid, but he isn’t on my level. I am looking to dominate this fight.
Fighting at Barclays Center is really a dream come true. I know that I will have a lot of support from the Puerto Rican boxing fans and I’m going to train hard to perform for them.
I’m sorry for Davis to be signed for Mayweather, because when I take away his undefeated record, I’m going to feel like I beat Mayweather.
GERVONTA DAVIS
It feels great to fight in Brooklyn for the first time. I’ve never fought in New York and it’s tremendous. I’ll have a lot of hometown fans driving up to here for the fight.
Pedraza is a tough opponent. We’re going to work hard in camp and be ready to fight on Yanvar 14.
My hometown has been backing me for all of these years. Haqqında Yanvar 14, I get my shot. Bu heyrətamizdir. I know Pedraza is a great fighter. People will say he has more experience. But I had 206 wins in the amateurs and a lot of titles.
There’s nothing Pedraza can bring to the ring that I haven’t seen before. I’ve been battle-tested inside the ring and outside the ring.
He’s going to have to kill me to retain his title. I’m coming home a champion. There’s no doubt about it.
On paper this is definitely my hardest task. We’re both great fighters. I hope he trains hard because I’m training for the fight of my life.
I’m going to steal the show on Yanvar 14. I’m going to get Pedraza out of there and then work to unify the division against the other champs.
Floyd Mayweather, Mayweather Promotions Prezidenti
“Geri qayıtdıq. What other better city to be in, than New York City? It was always one of my dreams to fight in New York City. I’m glad I’m in a position to put fighters out there to give the fans what they want to see. New York City is the best place for boxing.
For years and years these fighters have worked so hard and dedicated their lives to get to this point. I’m thankful for everyone who is supporting us and supporting our movement.
The only thing we’re going to do is continue to build these fighters and help these fighters get to the highest heights. So many people have helped me get to this point, where I can give back to these young fighters.
Lou DiBella is a guy I love to work with. The boxing business is about working together. Leonard works hard day in and day out to put these fighters in the best position, and I do the same. It’s all about working to get these fighters to the next level.
We’re here in New York and we want to bring boxing to New York City. This is one of the meccas of boxing. The whole state has embraced me throughout my career.
I’m very proud of Badou Jack. He’s a guy who carries himself like a gentleman. That’s what a true champion does. He’s very respectful, humble and appreciative.
Badou Jack is such a hard worker and he’s very appreciative. I remember the position he was in. He’s still very thankful and humble now that he’s in a great position in his life and career.
I’m just happy that I’m able to put fighters in a good position. They then have to take advantage of the position I put them in.
We want to continue to do fights in this arena and bring championship boxing to New York City. We want to give you great shows again and again.
LEONARD ELLERBE, Mayweather Promosyonlar CEO
This is a tremendous platform. Coming to New York is something that Floyd has been advocating for. He’s wanted to bring a big event here and come Yanvar 14 that’s what the fans are going to get. We have a great night of fights from top to bottom.
This is everything for Badou. This is why you lace them up when you’re a kid. This is an opportunity to be the best. He’s the best 168-pounder in the world and on Yanvar 14 he’ll have that platform to do it.
When it comes to unification, you don’t see too many unified champions. The best fighting the best is what it’s all about. DeGale is an Olympic gold medalist and a world champion. He’s fought some very good fighters. Badou will be making his third title defense and there is no better opponent than DeGale.
When two guys come together and they want to determine who’s the best, with everything on the line, Hər şey budur.
The fans can expect to see Mayweather Promotions go back to Las Vegas with two world champions. One will be a unified champion and one will be the new super featherweight world champion.
This is a great step-up for Gervonta. That’s what life is about, stepping up and taking risks. That’s why you get into the sport. He’ll have his full arsenal on display on fight night.
LOU Dibella, DiBella Əyləncə Prezidenti
Fans should go out and buy their tickets once they go on sale. There is going to be a show here on Yanvar 14. We have lawyers and insurance people on it and we will pay what needs to be paid.
This announcement not only represents a fight announcement, but a call to action to all boxing fans. Boxing needs your help in New York. We need to change or repeal this law that has really shut us down. Even if we can get really expensive insurance for Yanvar 14, the small promoters and small fights and grassroots boxing have come to a standstill.
Come out to this incredible fight card on Yanvar 14. Cek vs. DeGale is as good as it gets. Jose Pedraza is Puerto Rico’s only champion and he’s defending against Gervonta Davis. That is a great fight. The undercard is also going to be terrific.
It also represents boxing trying to take its rightful place back. We’re not sitting back in 2017 and letting our industry be brought to a halt. We’re going ahead and announcing Yanvar 14. But we need everyone’s help with respect to making the necessary changes to allow our sport to thrive in this space again.
I promoted Badou early in his career and he is a terrific fighter. He does everything well. He’s active in the ring and he makes good fights, and so does DeGale. He comes forward and fights. These two guys are going to throw down. This is a fan friendly main event. With huge significance.
The opening bout features Puerto Rico’s only champion, fighting in front of New York’s huge Puerto Rican community. Gervonta Davis comes right up from Baltimore and it’s a can’t-miss fight.
BRETT YORMARK, Brooklyn İdman CEO & Əyləncə
We want to reinforce our commitment to boxing. Not just from a Barclays Center perspective, but from a state perspective. Boxing is very important to the history here in New York and we want that to continue. We want to take a lead position as the sport continues to grow and thrive in the marketplace.
We have become one of the premier venues in the country for boxing. We look forward to a very successful 2017. This fight in particular is very important to us. We haven’t had a championship event here since July. Floyd being involved brings a whole different dynamic as well and we’re excited for a tremendous undercard full of Brooklynites.
Floyd has been here to the Barclays Center several times and we’re thrilled that he’s back. It’s a pleasure to welcomes Badou Jack and James DeGale to Brooklyn and I’m confident that you will like the Brooklyn crowd.
There has not been a major boxing event at Barclays Center since the Iyul 30 Vs Santa Cruz. Frampton card and we’re proud to take the lead on bringing boxing back to New York. We’re excited that Yanvar 14 will be the first major boxing card in New York in 2017. We are more committed than ever before to bringing boxing to Barclays Center.
It’s a very exciting time for the building, for the sport and it should be an electric evening for the sport.
STEPHEN Espinoza, İcra vp & General Manager, SHOWTIME İdman
This card is unique, high quality and special. You don’t see cards like this every day. These four fighters have made a combined 14 appearances on SHOWTIME. We’re very proud of these four fighters.
To create and deliver special events, it takes commitment. When you’re committed to a cause, Xüsusi şeylər baş verir. We’ve done special things with Mayweather Promotions and now we have this great card coming to us.
The four young men on the stage today are some of the most talented and accomplished athletes in the sport. This is the best this sport has to offer. They’re committed to taking on other accomplished athletes. We have four of those fighters here on the televised portion and we have to salute them.
New York City has a tremendous history in boxing. It’s hosted the biggest fights in the history of the sport. Barclays Center has emerged as the biggest and most aggressive supporter of boxing on the east coast. We’re optimistic that there won’t be any holdup getting to Yanvar 14.
No network is as committed or as passionate about boxing as SHOWTIME is. The biggest and the best fights are on SHOWTIME. No other network is televising fights like these. Top five versus top five and champion versus champion. There is no better way to kick-off boxing in 2017 than with this great card at Barclays Center.
ERIC ADAMS, Brooklyn Borough President
Now is the call for action. We have witnessed what happens when the call for action is not personified and mobilized. Too many people pass legislation and are focused on the paper it’s written on, instead of the people who are impacted by it. It is clear that New York state is the Empire State where we build empires instead of destroying them and we are destroying the empire of boxing in New York.
If we don’t do something about this piece of legislation, then these fighters will no longer have the aspiration to fight in the state that they love. That cannot happen. New Yorkers don’t follow the agenda, we lead the agenda. We must do that to make sure this is done correctly.
We are going to mobilize and move in the right direction while protecting the fighters. We don’t want to knock out boxing in the state of New York. That cannot happen.
This is going to be a great opportunity for these fighters and for Brooklyn and we are thankful to the team at Barclays for putting these fighters on this great stage.

Aşağıda boksçular dedikləri şeydir Çərşənbə axşamı Konfrans çağırışı:

RUSLAN “Sibir qayalı” Təxribat
“Heç kəsi məyus etməməyə və əlimdən gələni etməyə çalışacağam İyun 11. Heç bir proqnoz vermək istəmirəm. Boks çox gözlənilməzdir; bir şey baş verə bilər İyun 11. Döyüş gecəsinə qədər gözləmək üçün bir az şey əldə etdik və mənim üçün mübarizə aparmaq sadəcə vacibdir.

“Bu mübarizəni baş verən hər kəs üçün çox minnətdaram. John Molina'nın sərt bir döyüşçü olduğu üçün məndə olan rəqibdən məmnunam. Bu sərt bir mübarizə olacaq və bir döyüş olmağı axtarıram. Buna görə hamı hazır olsun İyun 11 Böyük bir mübarizə olacaq.”

JOHN “GLADIATOR” MOLINA JR.

(Mübarizəni özü kimi məcbur etmək üçün necə mübarizə apardığına görə)
“Mənim üçün, mükəmməl bir dünyada, Məni mübadilə etmək üçün bir oğlan olardım, amma Ruslan və komandası uzun müddətdir oyunun ətrafında idi. Bir puncher olduğumu bilirlər. Ruslanın ən yaxşısını edəcəyini düşünürəm, Orada oturub vuruşun, amma mən də onun boks qabiliyyətindən də onun həvəskar damazlıq və pro oyunda təcrübəsi verilmiş boks qabiliyyətindən istifadə etdiyini gözləyirəm. Hər hansı bir Ruslanın ayağa qalxmasına və ya orada oturduğunu və ya bangs olub-olmamasına baxmayaraq. Onun güclü bir döyüşçüdür. Onun güclü bir yumruqçı olduğunu bilirik və buna hazırıq. Ruslan Ruslan olacaq və o, oturub mənimlə vuruşacaq.”

(Mental döyüşlərə necə hazırlaşdığı barədə)
“Başqa bir yolum yoxdur. Döyüşlərimə və nəticəyə baxırsınız, Bizdə o döyüşçü ruhumuz var. Cəhlə olduğumuzu, Peşəkar olduğumuz üçün. Bir yaşayış üçün etdiyimiz budur. Əgər onu çox cahil və çox yetkin olmayan halqanın xaricində götürsək. Mənə inan, Mən başa düşürəm və bilirəm, və Ruslan başa düşür və bilir, gəlmişdi İyun 11 Bütün xeyirxahlıq pəncərədən çıxır. Döyüşdən sonra ən yaxşı dost ola bilərdik. Ancaq döyüş zamanı, Həmişə ailəmdən bir şey götürməyə çalışdığı nümunəni istifadə edirəm. Belə, Bu üzük içərisində çox ciddi bir işdir. Ring Outside, Enerji və ya heç kimə qarşı mənfi hissləri boşaltmaq istəmirəm. Yaşamaq üçün etdiyim budur. Rəqabət ruhum var, Dama içində itirmək istəmirəm.

“Boksda çox uğurlu bir karyeram keçirdim və daha yaxşı birinin gəlməsini səbirsizliklə gözləyirəm İyun 11. Hər mübarizə ciddidir, və yadda saxla, Mən bu oyundan bəri bu oyunu oynayırdım 24 yaşım var və mən yalnız var idi 22 Həvəskar döyüşlər bu qədər həvəskar karyeram Pro Oyunda idi. Döyüşlərin itməsi və ya qələbəsi olub-olmaması, Mən həmişə təcrübə qazandım və buna görə daha yaxşı bir döyüşçü oldum. Sadəcə istilənir və mübarizə aparıram İyun 11məni düzgün istiqamətdə katapult etməyə gedir.”

DEMETRIUS “Boo boo” ANDRADE
“Çamp içindədir. Çamp içindədir. Özümü yaxşı hiss edirəm. Minnətdaram. Mənə bu barədə bacarığımı və istedadımı nümayiş etdirmək imkanı vermək üçün təşəkkür etmək istəyirəm İyun 11 kart, Xüsusilə şöhrət salonu ilə davam edir. Provodnikov və John Molina arasında böyük bir əsas hadisədir; geri qayıtmaq və yaxşı əyləncələr vermək üçün iki oğlan. Gözlərimdə, Willie Nelson və Demetrius AndRade bir nömrəlidir 154 Bir Charlo qardaşına qarşı WBC üçün vuruşu üçün vuruşa qədər mübarizə aparmaq üçün aparıcı qədər qaçırmaq istəmədiyiniz mübarizə aparın (Jermell).”

(Bu qədər uzun müddət hərəkətsiz olmağın necə hiss etdiyi barədə)
“Mən məşğul oldum, Günün sonunda daha böyük bir mənzərənin olduğunu bilməklə dayanmaq. Bütün möhtəşəm əfsanələr və bütün şöhrətli döyüşçülərin hekayələri hekayələri var. Vaxtım ətrafında gəlir. Masalar dönüşür və insanlar bir-birinə və ya digər şəkildə bir-birinizə addım atmaq və bir-birinə qarşı mübarizə aparmaq məcburiyyətində qalırlar. Bəzən, Həyatda olduğunuz yerdə bank hesabınızdan daha əlverişlidir. Belə, Narahat deyiləm, və ya dəli və ya baş verən bir şey və hər şeyin necə oynadığı bir şeylə əsəbi və ya əsəbidir.

“Bu nöqtədə, Həyatda keçdiyiniz hər şeydə bir dərs var və vaxtında bu nöqtədə dərsimi öyrəndim. Məni əsəbiləşdirməyə və insanlara aparmağa çalışıram, yoxdur, Üzükdə götürdüm.”

(Willie Nelson haqqında düşüncələr)
“Onu həvəskar proqramda görmüşəm. Onu bu gün ən yaxşı uşaqlar olan sərt uşaqlar ilə mübarizə etdiyini gördüm. Bilirəm ki, o təcrübəni gətirir. Döyüşdüyüm əvvəlki döyüşçülərlə vuruşur. Mən nəhəngə qarşı durduğumu bilirəm, amma özümü nəhəng hesab edirəm və əla bir uyğunluq olacaq, Üçün böyük bir mübarizə 154 (bölmə). Hiss edirəm ki, bu, ən yaxşı döyüşlərdən biridir 154 Heç edilən bölmə.

“Keçmişi Willie Nelsondan əvvəl deyil, mən, mənim xarakterim, Çətin işim və etikam, Ən yaxşısı olmağı və orada ən yaxşısı ilə mübarizə aparıram. Mən oradan çıxmaq və Charlo əkizlərini əkiz qardaşların qalib gəlməsi üçün tarix hazırlamaq üçün təbriklər deyirəm (adları). Ancaq həmin başlıqları götürərək hər ikisini də döyərək tarixə çevriləcəyəm.

(Bir başlıqdan məhrum olmaq kimi idi)
“Bir kəmər məni tanımır. Bu mənim haqqımda heç nə dəyişmir, Döyüş tərzim, Mən kiməm və ya belə bir şey. Hal-hazırda ring padşahı olmaq üçün bir başlıq olmağınız lazım deyil, amma bu, WBC ilə mübarizə bəyənmələri ilə geri qayıtmaq mənim üçün bir fürsətdir. Şou vaxtı ilə mübarizəİyun 11 kart mənim üçün yaxşı bir hərəkət olacaq. Boks qədər, Günlər çempionun ən yaxşısı ilə mübarizə apardığı yer qayıdır.”

Willie “Böyük” Nelson
“Bu Willie Nelson, 154 kiloluq şöbə üçün ən yaxşı iddiaçılardan biridir. Bu mübarizə üçün heyecan alıram. Düşünürəm ki, hər ikimiz bu mübarizəni burada hiss edirik ki, hər ikimizin axtardığımız vuruş olacaq. Hal-hazırda mənim vaxtım bu kimi hiss edirəm. Mənimlə və boo boonun keçmiş tarixi ilə, Təəssüf ki, bu mübarizəyə gəlməliyik. Dostlar kimi olduqca sərinyıq, amma bizim dövrümüzdür, buna görə də oraya girib dünyaya hazırladığımızı göstərməliyik.”

(Uzun çəkilmənin arxasındakı düşüncə üzərində)
“Sözlərdən biri də Steve Smithin ölümü ilə əlaqədar idi, lakin döyüşlər çətin olduğu üçün də. Heç kim 6 metrlik vuruşmaq istəmir, 4-əslində döyüşməyə gələn və layiqli pop olan düymlük kiçik çəki. Bundan başqa, Karyerama bax. Karyeram döyüş və döşəmədən başqa bir şey deyildi. Məndən bəri pro oldu 19 yaşım var və yalnız var 27 pro döyüşlərdə. Bu sadəcə karyeram oldu: Döyüşlər və Döşəmələr.

“Kiminlə vuruşmasından və döyüşə gəldiyimdən asılı olmayaraq, Mən mənim bütün vermək gedirəm, hər zaman. Hansı yerin fərqi yoxdur, nə təşviqatçı, Şəbəkə və ya məkan. Sadəcə mənim qabiliyyətimin ən yaxşısını yerinə yetirirəm və etdiyimi gözləyirəm.”

STEPHEN Espinoza, Müdir Köməkçisi və baş direktoru, SHOWTIME İdman
(Ruslan və şou vaxtını cəlb edən onun haqqında nə olduğu kimi döyüşçü)
“Karyerası boyunca Ruslanı xarakterizə edən bir şey, fanatın sevimli olmasıdır və döyüşlərin sonunda nə olduğundan asılı olmayaraq bu ardıcıldır. Bir şəbəkə icraçı kimi axtardığımız şey əyləncəli proqramlaşdırmadir, və insanların görmək istədikləri döyüşür, insanların danışdığı döyüşlər, və bu, Ruslan karyerası boyunca nə qədər ardıcıldır. O, o, döyüşçülərin növlərindən biridir, Yəhya kimi [Molina Jr.] həmçinin, rekordlarında bir ovuc itki varsa belə, İdmandakı hər kəs kimi izləmək üçün əyləncəli və xoş olduğu üçün həqiqətən əhəmiyyəti yoxdur.

“Müxtəlif döyüşlərə sahib olmağa çalışırıq; bəziləri həqiqətən bacarıqlı uşaqlar ilə, Həqiqətən böyük yumruqlayan bəzi uşaqlar, müxtəlif çəki dərsləri, müxtəlif növ döyüşçülərin müxtəlifliyi. Bu başlıqlar haqqında olmadığı yerdir, həqiqətən çətin mübarizə aparan və hamısını verən iki oğlandan başqa bir şey deyil. [Bu iki oğlan var] Üzükdəki görüş, həmin gecə daha yaxşı boksçunun kim olduğunu anlamaq üçün.

“Bu, idmana fərqli bir növ müxtəlif növ əlavə etmək üçün bir yoldur. Bir dəfə kartın başında döyüşdükdən sonra bütün karta uyğun olmağa çalışdıq. Demetrius və Willie kimi uşaqlara baxsanız, Dejan və hətta Willie Monroe Jr-ə qədər. və John Thompson, Düşünürəm ki, bu nə olmalıdır və bütün fəaliyyət gecəsi kimi xarakterizə edir.”

(Demetrius və Willie-də)
“Bu mübarizə üçün bütün kreditləri Demetrius və Willie-yə verirəm. Bu çağırışa qədər Willie üçün. Demetriusdakı bölünməsindəki ən çox istifadə olunan uşaqlardan biri var, Nisbətən uzun birləşmə və hərəkətsizlik dövründən sonra belə bir sərt mübarizəni kim tutur. Sadəcə, bunların hansı uşaqların olduğunu və karyeralarının növbəti səviyyəsinə qədər addım atmaqdan necə narahat olduqlarını göstərir.”

Artur pelullo, Banner Promosyonlar Prezidenti
“Bir şey başqa bir fərqli döyüşçülərlə şou vaxtında daha çox imkanların olduğunu hiss etdiyimiz başqa birinə səbəb oldu…Ruslan Provodnikov üçün bacarıqlarını göstərməsi üçün daha çox fürsət var və bu yola düşə bildik.

“John Molina hazırda ən sərt mübarizədir. Bu, getməli olan döyüşdür, amma real bir fürsət var, Qazanır və ya itirir. Hər iki oğlan orada istedad hovuzu səbəbindən şou vaxtında real imkanlar var.”

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

NEW YORK (Dec. 19, 2015) – Billy Joe Saunders dethroned WBO Middleweight World Champion Andy Lee with a 12-round majority decision Saturday on ŞouTime Boks INTERNATIONAL Manchester, İngiltərə.

 

mübarizə, olan qol oldu 115-111, 114-112 və 113-113, will re-air tonight at 9 dək. VƏ/SHO EXTREME on PT.

 

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 dəyirmi. VİDEO SEÇMELER: 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.

 

Qalibiyyətlə, Saunders became the 12ci current British world champion.

 

“I’m world champion,” Saunders said. “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 Middleweight Dünya çempionu Daniel Jacobs, fresh off a first round knockout of Peter Quillin two weeks ago on SHOWTIME, was a guest analyst Şənbə günü New Yorkdan.

 

“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.”
