LONDON – February 23, 2019 - Chris Eubank Jr. earned a career-defining victory with a hard-fought unanimous decision over British rival and former two-time world champion James DeGale in a super middleweight grudge match Saturday on SHOWTIME from The O2 in London.
Eubank, the son of British boxing legend and former two-division world champion Chris Eubank Sr., floored DeGale twice en route to the clear decision, yang dijaringkan 114-112, 115-112, 117-109. SOROTAN VIDEO: https://s.sho.com/2E6mWI8
Working in his first bout with a full-time trainer, Eubank fought a controlled fight. The former world title challenger floored DeGale in a rough moment in the second, stunning his rival with a big left hook against the ropes and flooring him moments later with a strong right cross that sent DeGale to the canvas for just the second fight of his career.
DeGale, who established his championship career as a slick southpaw, was unable to jab at range and couldn’t handle the constant pressure from Eubank. The former Olympic Gold Medalist resorted to lunging from the outside and was largely ineffective on the inside, often clinching while in close quarters.
“I knew he was going to come at me like that,” Eubank said. “He’s a slick southpaw, but my game plan worked. Smart pressure and not getting too ahead of myself. He’s a hell of a fighter, hell of a competitor but at the end of the day my head and my heart won this fight.”
“There was a lot of animosity leading to this fight. Saya memberitahunya, ‘This is my time,’ and it was. He’s a veteran of the game, he throws big shots and he manages to stay up. To get up after those knockdowns is a statement about his tenacity and the type of fighter he is.”
The second knockdown came in the 10ke-as Eubank landed a powerful left hook that buckled DeGale with just 30 saat kiri dalam pusingan. Sekali lagi, DeGale tried to clinch to avoid the knockdown, but his hand touched the canvas and was ruled just the third knockdown of his career.
Selepas perjuangan, DeGale, who was the first British fighter to earn an Olympic Gold Medal and a world championship, appeared to be leaning toward retirement.
“I definitely I didn’t do enough,” DeGale said. “He was on it and I didn’t do enough. You have to do more than enough to counter someone that came forward like Chris.
“I’m going to go back and talk to my team, keluarga saya, and decide. I left my mark in boxing. I won an Olympic Medal, two world titles and it may be the time to hang it up.”
While DeGale contemplates retirement, Eubank has his sights set on another shot at a world title.
“This was the most important fight of my career, and I made a statement. I’m back where I’m supposed to be, at the top of the food chain. I’m coming for all the belts in the middleweight and super middleweight division. I’m fighting everyone they put in front of me.
“I’m glad to make my American debut here on SHOWTIME. I’m glad to be introduced to the American public this way – making a statement.”
Dalam pertarungan pembukaan doubleheader Showtime KEJOHANAN BOXING, undefeated heavyweight Joe Joyce kept his knockout record intact with a sixth-round TKO of former heavyweight world champion Bermane Stiverne.
After an exciting first round, Joyce opened up the action in the second with a monstrous straight right and unloaded from bell to bell against a defenseless Stiverne, who continued to punch back despite eating damaging shots. After a series of combos in the opening minute of the third, Joyce caught Stiverne with a straight right hand to send him to the canvas for the fifth time in his professional career. Stiverne survived the round while throwing looping shots but failed to return any meaningful punches.
Joyce, yang 2016 Olympic Silver Medalist, consistently set up a powerful straight right behind an accurate and effective left jab throughout the fight. With Joyce (8-0, 8 KOs) continuing to tee off against a largely defenseless Stiverne, referee Howard Foster stepped in to halt the contest at 2:26 of the sixth. Stiverne (25-4-1, 21 KOs) did not protest the stoppage.
“Big respect to Stiverne – like a true champion, he’s very tough and was still throwing shots, but I guess I was just a bit too much,” Joyce said. “It was about being patient. He’s such a tough guy that he took those shots no problem.
“I was hitting him with everything I had, including the kitchen sink. I listened to Abel (Sanchez) in the corner, did everything he said and it went well. My jab was really effective. I’m a seasoned vet. I picked up my poise and remained calm along the way.
“Big things are coming. My next one will be for the WBA Regular (Tajuk) and I’ll be back in the gym soon. I need to have a couple more fights like this and then I’ll be ready for the big champions.”
Highlights of former world champion Lee Selby’s lightweight debut were featured during Saturday’s telecast. A former champion at featherweight, Selby (27-2, 9 KOs) overcame a second round accidental head butt to win a 12-round unanimous decision (116-112, 116-112, 115-114) over Omar Douglas (19-3, 13 KOs).

Here’s what the fighters and their respective camps had to say during Thursday’s press conference at Intercontinental at The O2:
JAMES DEGALE:
“I vacated my title for fights like this. Chris Eubank has been calling my name for a long time and finally I get a chance to punch him in his face.
“I have no respect for him. None. This guy is a diluted idiot. And on Saturday night I can’t wait to deal with him. I’m going to come and give it to him properly. He can’t box. We’ve all heard this before.
“This is the biggest fight of his career. It’s retirement time. Whoever loses this fight is finished. It’s do or die on Saturday…His retirement fight is here. It’s his last fight, Saya berjanji kepada anda bahawa.
“I’m proven. Saya telah berada di sana, dilakukan bahawa. I’ve won everything. He’s done nothing. And I’m going to retire him.
“Eubank is a tough fighter, dia kuat. He has a lot of good attributes, but I’m too good for him. To mix it up and go to the very top you need more than strength and toughness. Every time he’s stepped up, he’s lost.
“The fear of losing is because I know what’s on the line. This is do or die. If I can’t beat him, if I can’t beat Chris Eubank Jr., Saya dilakukan.
“A lot of people think I’ve seen better days. A lot of people think I’m on the decline. I’ve had issues in the past, but I can honestly say I’m fully fit. I’m in the best shape I’ve been for a long, masa panjang, physical and mentally. When I feel like I feel no one can beat me.
“If I can’t beat Chris that means I’m shot, that means I’m over the hill.”
CHRIS EUBANK JR.:
“This guy is a bum. He talks a good game. He’s going to have a good go, but at the end of the day I’m going to be too much for him.
“We are both at a stage where we can’t lose. We are both fighting for our careers. He knows he can’t handle me. He’s asking himself, ‘Can I survive?’ And the answer is absolutely not.
“There’s nothing he can do in that ring that I can’t handle. I’m going to box his head off.
“I’ve got a full time trainer now. For the first time in my career, I have a trainer day in and day out focusing on strategy to prepare me for what James is – a slick southpaw. That’s why I’m so confident. If he wants to run, we have the gameplan. If he wants to stand and swing, we have the gameplan. We have a plan for everything.
“What matters is that James’ career is over in a few days. I sent him a message after he lost to [George] Groves saying he needs to keep up because we are going to fight one day. And now that we’re finally here I look into his eyes and I don’t see a confident guy.
“It’s my time. I’m expecting the best he’s ever been and that’s still not going to be enough.
“I’m a world-level fighter. Anyone in the boxing game knows that. This is my opportunity to prove that once and for all to set the record straight and prove I’m the real deal. I know this is a defining fight in my career. It is do or die and I’m ready for that.
“James knows what’s coming. Pada akhir hari, his last performances haven’t been up to par, but i don’t think he respected his [past] lawan. He respects me, and I respect him and that’s why this is a real fight.
“I’ve been in the game for a long time but this is just the beginning of a long journey for me. This is my biggest fight. Saya perlu menang. Jika saya menang, I’m back on the world stage. Beating James DeGale sets me up for a world title which is the whole reason I started in this game.”
JIM McDonnell:
“There are levels to boxing. Chris was a good prospect coming through but he’s not on the same level as James. He’ll find out what it takes to be a world champion. James DeGale is levels above Chris Jr.
“Chris may have all the drive he needs but he doesn’t have the skills to beat James DeGale.
“I know James is not losing. James DeGale is probably the best British fighter I’ve seen in my country.”
CHRIS EUBANK SR.:
“I’ve seen the pinnacle of James and it’s intoxicating. With Chris, not everything I’ve said has been applied. It may have been heard, but not applied. What I said works. I wouldn’t have 19 championship wins if it didn’t.
“I’m not convinced [Chris will win] because James DeGale has pedigree. Being an [Olympic] Gold Medalist and former world champion is real. I respect the man’s abilities. Junior hasn’t.
“My son looks at the physical aspect of boxing and, from a physical point of view, I don’t think there is anyone who can stand with him. But boxing isn’t just physical – it’s also spiritual, and that’s where Junior lacks. I don’t know whether he has that.
“This is a 50/50 fight and for the first time I am petrified of what the outcome can be. I am petrified that Junior may not win this fight.
“This is the wisdom of someone who has been here. You never underestimate your opponent based on past performances. Anyone who thinks this guy is on a slide because of past performances is making a mistake.
“From a physical aspect, Junior has the upper hand. From a spiritual aspect and pedigree aspect, James has the upper hand, and that’s why this is a 50/50 perjuangan.
“I do know Chris has learned and let’s see what is produced. It can be a brilliant fight.”
Paulie Malignaggi:
“I like our chances. I know the guy that I have been in camp with. The things I’ve seen, I like. They are much more positive this time around.
“You can’t underestimate a guy like Eubank. He always comes to win. Tetapi, regardless of the gameplan, there is a certain mentality and my guy has it. He’s a Gold Medalist and he knows what mentality to bring on Saturday.
“James has won two major world titles, an Olympic Gold Medal. Chris has had some good wins but when he went to that elite level, he lost. Chris is a good fighter but he’s not beaten this level of opposition.”

The 33-year-old DeGale was the first British boxer to win a Gold Medal in the Olympics and a world championship as a professional. He won his world title with a unanimous decision over Andre Dirrell in 2015 and made two successful defenses before fighting to a draw against Badou Jack in 2017. DeGale avenged his December 2017 loss to Caleb Truax to reclaim his IBF Super Middleweight belt in April 2018 pada Showtime. After voluntarily vacating the belt, DeGale stopped veteran Fidel Munoz his last time out.
The 29-year-old Eubank Jr., the son of former two-division world champion Chris Eubank, is highly motivated to challenge for more world titles after he lost a unanimous decision to George Groves for the WBA Super Middleweight belt one year ago. The rivalry between DeGale and Eubank has been brewing for several years after a series of run-ins. The duo has sparred each other in the gym and have traded several verbal jabs on social media. Eubank, who has been training in Las Vegas at the Mayweather Boxing Club, has won nine out of his last ten fights and has registered knockouts in eight of those wins.
The 6-foot-6 Joyce, London, England, has started his professional career with a 100 percent KO rate after turning professional in 2017 pada usia 32.

Joyce, who trains in Big Bear, Calif. under renowned trainer Abel Sanchez, knocked out Joe Hanks at 2:25 of round one in his last fight on the Deontay Wilder vs. Tyson Fury undercard.
Stiverne (25-3-1, 21 KOs), who was the first ever Haiti-born boxer to own a piece of the heavyweight crown, won the WBC title with a convincing sixth-round TKO over Chris Arreola in 2014. Stiverne then lost the belt in his next fight against Deontay Wilder, despite becoming the first fighter to take the current American champion the distance. The 40-year-old has not fought since his loss in the 2017 rematch against Wilder but is anxious to bounce back with a statement win over the highly regarded Joyce.

LOS ANGELES (Januari 13) – Pencabar terbukti menjadi penceroboh kerana Caleb Plant menjadi Juara Dunia Super Middleweight IBF, mengalahkan Jose Uzcategui dalam acara utama Juara Tinju Perdana pertama pada acara FS1 dan FOX Deportes 2019, yang berlangsung di Teater Microsoft di L.A. Tinggal di Los Angeles. Plant menguasai keseluruhan pertarungan sambil mengekalkan rentak pantas dan agresif dari loceng pembukaan.
Dengan
markah daripada 116-110 dua kali dan 115-111 memihak kepada Loji, yang baru dinobatkan
juara, Tumbuhan jatuh melutut kerana terharu apabila mendengar “dan
baru!".
“Saya dah
bekerja sepanjang hidup saya untuk ini,” kata Plant. “Saya kebumikan anak perempuan saya di dalam
proses mencuba untuk mendapatkan tali pinggang ini. Saya berjanji saya akan membawakan gelaran ini dan
itulah yang akan saya lakukan.”
The
barnburner kelas menengah super bermula dengan kuat dengan kedua-dua pejuang membaling
pertukaran, tetapi Plant melakukan segala yang terdaya untuk tidak berundur. Uzcategui
membaling keras tangan kanan untuk memulakan pusingan kedua, tetapi Plant cepat-cepat membelok
bulat memihak kepadanya ketika dia mengetuk Uzcategui ke kanvas dengan tergesa-gesa
tumbukan, hanya kali ketiga Uzcategui dijatuhkan dalam kerjayanya. A
potongan kecil dibuka di bawah mata kiri Uzcategui untuk memulakan yang ketiga, tetapi dia
berjuang melaluinya dan menangkis pencerobohan Plant. Satu minit memasuki minit keempat
bulat, luka terbuka di bawah mata kanan Tumbuhan menyebabkan darah mengalir. Itu
tidak menghalang anak jati Nashville itu sambil melemparkan cangkuk kiri yang keras sekali lagi
menghantar Uzcategui ke kanvas.
Sebagai
perjuangan berlangsung, warga Venezuela itu tidak dapat menggunakan jaraknya, dengan demikian
membenarkan Tumbuhan bertarung di dalam. Walaupun pertukaran yang baik pada ketujuh
dan kelapan, semakin jelas bahawa Uzcategui memerlukan kalah mati
untuk memegang tali pinggangnya. Uzcategui menukar suis dalam pusingan kejuaraan
dan tampil ke hadapan, melemparkan pukulan keras ke badan dan kepala Tumbuhan. Tetapi ia adalah
terlalu sedikit terlambat untuk Uzcategui kerana kumpulan umum Plant mengawal
rentak perjuangan, akhirnya berakhir dengan keputusan sebulat suara.
“saya
tahu saya menangkapnya bersih [apabila saya menumbangkan Uzcategui], tetapi saya tahu dia tidak
sepanjang jalan keluar jadi saya mengambil masa saya,” sambung Plant. “Saya kekal santai. saya tersekat
kepada pelan permainan dan menyelesaikannya seperti yang saya katakan.
“ini
sangat menggembirakan. Saya seorang kanak-kanak yang datang dari ketiadaan. Saya percaya pada diri sendiri dan sekarang
Saya telah dinobatkan sebagai raja. Sekarang, Saya tidak berfikir ke hadapan. saya cuma nak
hayati detik ini dan rendamkannya.”
“Saya
memang merasakan bahawa saya mempunyai kelebihan menuju ke pertarungan,” kata Uzcategui. “Saya
turun kerana saya hilang keseimbangan, tetapi saya tidak terluka. Dia mula penat
sekitar pusingan keenam, yang merupakan rancangannya. Caleb tahu bagaimana untuk mengepal dan memegang.
Dia bijak. Dia tahu bagaimana untuk menjauhkan diri daripada tumbukan.
“Saya
mengharapkan lebih banyak pergerakan dan lebih banyak tinju daripadanya,” sambung Uzcategui. “Saya
akan suka perlawanan semula. Saya rasa semua orang melihat pertarungan hebat malam ini. Saya beri dia
peluang untuk merangkul gelaran dan saya berharap dia akan memberi saya peluang untuk memenanginya
belakang.”

pencabar Moises Flores (25-2, 17 KOs) Guadalajara, Mex. dalam WBA Super
Penyingkiran gelaran bantamweight. Figueroa tidak membuang masa menyerang Flores
pusingan satu ketika dia datang ke hadapan dan membaling beberapa kiri keras diikuti dengan satu badan
tembakan yang kelihatan mengejutkan Flores. Dengan 30 saat kiri dalam pusingan,
Figueroa pergi mencari mayat itu dan mengerjakan Flores di bahagian dalam. Manakala Flores nampaknya
untuk mencari kedudukannya pada permulaan pusingan ketiga, Figueroa melepaskan tergesa-gesa
tumbukan yang menghantar Flores ke kanvas sekali dan kemudian kali kedua yang berakhir
pergaduhan di 1:35 pusingan ketiga.
“Rehat
dia turun dan habiskan dia,” kata Figueroa “Inilah yang saya jangkakan
pergi. Saya tahu bahawa dia tidak akan mengendalikan pukulan badan itu. Mesej saya kepada
Daniel Roman ialah saya akan pulang dan bersiap.
“Saya
menggunakan kerja badan itu,” sambung Figueroa. “Saya memang kuat. Saya masuk pada 110
peratus dan melakukan kerja saya. Saya boleh melakukan yang lebih baik. Saya benar-benar keras pada diri saya sendiri. saya
tahu ada perkara yang boleh saya terus usahakan dan akan melakukannya sebaik sahaja saya
sampai rumah. Saya sudah pasti bersedia untuk perebutan gelaran.”

Spencer yang berusia 18 tahun, yang bergaduh 100 berperang sebagai amatur, menetapkan jelingannya

“Peminat
akan melihat bahawa saya memberikan segalanya apabila saya naik gelanggang dan saya akan melakukannya
mengadakan persembahan,” kata Spencer. "Anda akan mendapat lebih banyak ujian dalam saya
kerjaya dan saya percaya saya akan meningkat ke tahap persaingan saya. Kadang-kadang
anda berada di sana dengan seorang lelaki yang janggal, dia terbukti sebagai ujian. Saya akan beralih ke enam
pusingan untuk perjuangan saya seterusnya. Saya mahu bertarung empat kali tahun ini dan saya sedang mencari

dia memukul sekuat itu. Saya telah dibersihkan oleh doktor dan saya baik-baik saja. Sedikit sahaja
agak terkejut.”

James DeGale and Chris Eubank Jr will clash at London’s O2 on 23 February in the first major UK event of the new deal between ITV and Haymon Sports’ Premier Boxing Champions, it has been announced.
The Super Middleweight match, to be screened exclusively live on ITV Box Office, will take place against a backdrop of hostility between two fighters who have long made no secret of their mutual dislike and are relishing the prospect of settling their differences in the ring.
James DeGale has already fired off an opening shot in the direction of his opponent.
He said: “Really excited and looking forward to being back home to a fight of this magnitude. “I believe Eubank doesn’t have the pedigree, the size and skill to beat me. “Eubank is a decent fighter but every time he has stepped up he has been found out. He has called my name for a long time so now I’ve finally got my chance to zip his lips.”
Eubank Jr responded in kind, berkata: “DeGale is going to get the schooling of his career. A good old-fashioned hiding.”
Poxon Sport is the promoter of DeGale v Eubank Jr, as the exclusive promoter of all UK PBC events on ITV.

PHILADELPHIA, PENN.(November 6, 2018)–Banner Promotions is proud to announce the signing of former Olympian and current super middleweight Naim Terbunja.
Terbunja of Linkoping, Sweden by way of Pristina, Kosovo, represented Sweden in the 2008 Sukan Olimpik. He currently holds a professional record of 10-2-1 dengan satu kalah mati.
Yang 34 year-old Terbunja began boxing at the age of 14, as he was a young soccer player looking to get stronger. Terbunja took up boxing, and fell in love with the sport.
That sparked an amateur career that saw him go 200-36. Terbunja fought all over the world for the Swedish National team, and then to the 2008 Olympics where he lost to Matt Korobov in the round of 36.
Terbunja moved to Long Island and spent part of his amateur career in the United States and captured the National Golden Gloves title in 2009 by defeating Luis Arias in the finals.
Terbunja turned professional on April 27, 2012 with a unanimous decision over Vladimir Spasojevic in Sweden. Terbunja has fought six times in Sweden and twice in Kosovo.
Terbunja has a 1st round stoppage over previously undefeated Joel De La Paz (7-0) pada Julai 23, 2016.
Terbunja is coming off a disputed draw with regarded Lanell Bellows on May 11th in Las Vegas.
“I am happy to sign with Banner Promotions,” said Terbunja. “If I have a good team around me, I believe that I can fight for a world title. Banner Promotions can help me where I need to go.”
“Naim has a blue chip pedigree. He was an Olympian, and the bout he lost was close. He has had one bad fight at super middleweight. I believe he has the ability to be in position to fight for a world championship. He has an awkward style, and a good chin. He now has a good opportunity with Banner Promotions to realize his potential,” said Terbunja’s manager, Pat Zagarino.
“We happy to have signed Naim. He was an Olympian, and we think he can become a player in the super middleweight division. We look forward to getting him in the ring before the end of the year, and we will get him in prime position in 2019,” said Banner Promotions President Artie Pelullo.
Greg Cohen Promotions proudly announces the signing of once-beaten super middleweight Derrick “Take It to The Bank” Webster.
Glassboro, New Jersey’s Webster (28-1, 14 KOs) stands an enormous 6’ 4”, with fast and powerful hands. The naturally athletic southpaw only had 40 amateur fights and didn’t even start boxing until age 24 but picked up the sport very quickly.
Unlike most world-class fighters, Webster is a successful home-remodeling and construction business owner. He also played power forward for two seasons for the University of Maryland basketball while earning a bachelor’s degree in Juvenile Criminal Justice.
"Rasanya menakjubkan,” said Webster of the signing. “I feel like I belong on this level. I have a different story from the people I’m around. They’ve been fighting since they were kids. I didn’t pick up gloves until I was 24. For me to be here, with people who have been fighting all their lives… I’ve already reached a level a lot of guys never reach.”
Webster says trusting the wrong people made for a tough road earlier in his career, but he’s ready for a run at a world championship now that he has father figure/trainer Denny Brown and the experienced promoter Cohen on his side.
“From early on, people have been promising this and promising that. I’m past that point. I deal with that earlier in my career. I don’t have the patience to be playing around anymore. Greg says we’re fighting December 1 and then we will come back and fight again early next year. I expect to break into the world ratings and take my shot at a world championship.”
Webster is unique in that he’s not financially dependent on boxing. All of his sacrifice and work is done because he wants to.
“A lot of guys fight because they need it for their identity. I am successful in business already. I have built myself up as a brand. I have businesses that are doing well. Boxing just adds to my life. I still act. I do modelling. I don’t have to worry about money in boxing.”
Cohen says he’ll act quickly with Webster to get him into position for a world championship challenge.
“Derrick is a unique talent who is overdue for a big fight. With almost no previous experience, he has worked his way to a 28-1 record with solid wins over several reliable veterans. At the top of his potential, he can be a super middleweight version of (former welterweight champion) Paul Williams. He’s a smart and naturally talented fighter with excellent potential to become a force at 168 lbs.”
