WASHINGTON, D.C. (Abril 20, 2016) - Austin truita (30-2, 17 KOs), the former super welterweight world champion, is ready to collect his second world title on Dissabte, Maig 21 when he meets IBF Junior Middleweight world champion Jermall Charlo in a 12-round match live on TEMPS DE LA FUNCIÓ (10 p.m. I/7 p.m. PT) des El Chelsea, a one-of-a-kind 40,000-square-foot venue inside The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas.
“It’s my time,” said Trout. “My focus is amplified 10-fold. I’m the confident, happy Austin that fans know, but trust me, when it’s fight time I’m ready for any dogfight that comes. You’ll see Austin bring out and defeat the ‘Lion’ in him because at the end of the day I’m taking that belt.”
Les entrades per a l'esdeveniment en viu, el qual és promogut per Mayweather Promotions i Promocions TGB, estan a la venda. Els preus comencen a $39, i estan disponibles en línia a www.cosmopolitanlasvegas.com or through Ticketmaster at (800) 745-3000i www.ticketmaster.com.
Born in El Paso, Texas and raised in Las Cruces, Nou Mèxic, Trout is trained by Barry Hunter and Louie Burke of Headbangers Gym in Washington D.C. Having started boxing at the age of 10, his natural talent and the ability to grow into the sport took Austin across the United States and Latin America in the amateur divisions and then into the pros. Known as one of the fiercest gentlemen competitors in the sport, he beat the likes of Miguel Cotto, Rigoberto Alvarez and Delvin Rodriguez, before losing his title to Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez. Trout comes into Maig 21 looking to claim a title in a division he’s been a true threat within for his career.
You’ve said you’ve been led to this fight, why is it important?
“Coming off of four consecutive wins, I’m not just on a comeback streak but I’m taking a full step forward. Charlo is the champ, this fight is about no more half stepping. It’s about taking on the best. Isn’t that what it’s about, being the best?"
How is camp going?
“I physically feel great. I’m really comfortable with Barry, it’s my fourth camp with the Headbangers team; Luis is there as well. Luis helps me with pre-camp and then I shift to D.C.
“I was already in D.C. getting camp started when the rumors about this fight came true. I had been at the gym at home for pre-camp for a month and a half before hitting D.C. I was working out five times a week, running every day just getting the program going. Com ja he dit, no half-stepping. I’m already sparring, doing the work, getting right. I’m not walking through it but running and trotting through it. Estic 30, I’m at my physical peak, my talent couldn’t be any better.”
Talk about the fight and what to expect?
“Neither one of us is going out without a fight, so I don’t see this being a boring fight. It’s time for people to remember me. I’ve earned this championship shot against an undefeated bull like Jermall Charlo but I will take his belt. "
Your first professional loss was against ‘Canelo’ Alvarez in San Antonio in 2013. What are your thoughts on that fight?
“I had a good, competitive fight with Saul – it felt like a unification bout – I was WBA champion and he was WBC champion. The open scoring was more detrimental to my game plan thea the judges! During the fight when I was told that I wasn’t winning on anyone’s cards I had to change my game plan. It was a dogfight. Canelo never had to box and move that much before in a fight.
"Però, live and learn. Instead of walking into a fight like that I listened to those around me. No more surprises. This Charlo fight is a fight I want, a fight my team wants and we’re ready. I’m a more mature, focused champion who’s coming back. I’m dangerous – I have experience, talent and God on my side.”

A technical master, Lara is considered one of the toughest men to beat in the sport and will look to continue his reign at 154 pounds against the always-game Martirosyan, who is set on becoming a world champion on his second try.
The 25-year-old Charlos are aiming for history against stiff opposition from a former champion in Trout and the Olympian from the Virgin Islands in Jackson.
The 32-year-old Lara is a slick boxer with the ability to deliver punishment while taking very little of it in return. Lara has notched victories over Alfredo Angulo, Austin truita, Ishe Smith and Freddy Hernandez. Com amateur, Lara va guanyar nombrosos títols, incloent un campionat nacional en el pes welter, i també va participar en la 2007 Jocs Panamericans. El lluitador originari de Guantánamo, Cuba dominated Delvin Rodriguez in June of last year and followed that up with a third-round stoppage of former champion Jan Zaveck.
Nascut a Armènia, però lluitant fora de Glendale, Qualif., Martirosyanrepresentar al U.S. al 2004 Jocs Olímpics. Com a professional, he won his first 32 fights before fighting Lara to a draw in 2012. The 29-year-old suffered a narrow defeat by split decision in his first world title shot against Demetrius Andrade, but has rebounded with solid victories over Mario Lozano, Willie Nelson and most recently Ishe Smith.
A newly crowned champion at 25-years-old, Charlo grabbed his title with a dominant third-round stoppage of Cornelius Bundrage in September 2015. Residint a Houston, Charlo va construir el seu full de vida a 2014 with dominant triumphs over Hector Munoz, Norberto Gonzale, Lenny Bottai and Michael Finney. En la seva sortida més recent, he successfully defended his title with a fourth-round stoppage of Wilky Campfort in November.
En 2004, Truita won the U.S. Nacional Amateur de pes welter del campionat i després de pujar a les files com un boxejador professional d'elit, guanyar un campionat mundial pes súper welter en 2011 en derrotar a Rigoberto Alvarez. He went on to make four successful defenses, including a career-best, dominant victory over Miguel Cotto in New York. He is currently on a four-fight win streak after knocking out Joey Hernandez in September to set up his world title opportunity.
Younger-by-one-minute than Jermall, Jermell Charlo is a highly ranked young fighter looking to get one step closer to a world title shot. Un lluitador alt per a la seva divisió, the 25-year-old earned his shot at a world title with victories over Gabriel Rosado, Charlie Ota and Mario Lozano in 2014 and Martirosyan and former world champion Joachim Alcine in 2015. He impressed last time out by disposing of Alcine in the sixth-round of their fight in Houston in October.
Since representing his native Virgin Islands in the 2008 Jocs Olímpics,Jackson has put together an impressive pro career. El St. Thomas-born fighter won his initial 13 fights after making his debut in January 2009. The 27-year-old earned the No. 1 spot and the title shot with a shutout victory over Dennis Laurente in August. Jackson comes from a fighting family; his father John David Jackson was a world champion and feared power-puncher while his brother, Julius, is a contender in the 168-pound weight class.

Andrade fa declaració fort en llarg retorn al ring en mora
PROVIDENCE (Octubre 22, 2015) – El invicte pes súper welter Demetrio “Boo Boo” Andrade (22-0, 15 KOs) va tornar al ring el passat dissabte a la nit per primera vegada en 16 mesos, aturar l'excampió Sud-americana Darío Fabian “El Gall” Pucheta (20-3, 11 KOs) en la segona ronda pel títol vacant Organització Mundial de Boxa (OMB) Campionat Internacional de pes súper welter.
El jugador de 27 anys d'edat, Andrade, qui va ser desposseït del seu títol de l'OMB món per inactivitat, no s'havia barallat des de la seva setena ronda eliminatòria juny 14, 2014 del llavors n. 1 contendent obligatori Brian “El Lleó” Rose (25-1-1, 7 KOs) en la seva primera i única defensa del títol de l'OMB.
“Se sentia molt bé,” Andrade va parlar sobre estar de tornada en acció. “Jo estava a punt, disposat i capaç de fer el que necessito i per preparar-me per qualsevol circumstància. Jo estava en plena forma i en el meu joc com mai havia deixat.”
“Hem tingut un any difícil, però vaig aprendre més sobre Demetrio’ caràcter en el passat 14 mesos que jo vaig conèixer al primer 14 mesos,” Gerent d'Andrade I Farris conegut. “Ell és el tipus de boxejador que ve al llarg de cada 10 any, però és el tipus de persona que es presenta un cop a la vida.”
Andrade, lluitant fora de la Providència, gaudit d'un avantatge lluitant en el Mohegan Sun Arena, marcant la seva primera baralla de Nova Anglaterra en més de tres anys. L'esquerrà talentós caure Pucheta, que mai havia estat detingut com a professional, dues vegades en el primer assalt i va tancar l'espectacle amb una potent esquerra recta que va posar el sobre-aparellat colombiana sobre la seva esquena a la marca de 50 segons de la segona ronda.
“Vaig aprofitar el meu temps lliure i el va utilitzar amb intel·ligència per fer-se més fort,” Andrade va explicar, “Realment vaig treballar dur amb el meu entrenador de força i condicionament, qui va armar un bon pla. Probablement em vaig passar més temps en (força & condicionament) que la boxa durant el meu temps lliure. Sóc conegut com un boxejador astut però volia estar fort, així que no has d'anar 12 rondes llevat que necessiten. Em sentia més poder al campament, combat i colpejant la borsa, i es notava Dissabte nit.”
Malgrat la seva relativament llarg parèntesi de l'anell, Andrade segueix sent un lluitador de classe mundial, i finalment va tenir l'oportunitat de recordar als fans que el passat Dissabte. “Volia mostrar a tothom per què estic així vaig evitar,” la 2008 U.S. Olympian comentat, “i per fer una declaració que sóc el millor en la divisió de les 154 lliures. Estic aquí per quedar-! Volia que tothom vegi el que és un gran campió és tot sobre, Pel que fa al rendiment, en tornar de la situació que estava en. Només vull estar ocupat i lluitar amb els millors. Estem esbrinar el que serà el pròxim.”
“Aviat,” Farris va concloure, “la resta del món de la boxa sabrà que Demetrius Andrade és el millor pes súper welter al món. Eventualment, ell serà el millor pes mitjà, així. Creu-me, Demetrio va tenir una baralla que defineix amb GGG (Gennady Golovkin) i després anem a veure qui és el millor de veritat és.”
Molt temps d'espera més de Demetrius Andrade devolucions d'aquest dissabte

“He estat allà, fet això,” Andrade spoke about his return. “Va ser una cosa així com quan jo era un aficionat es va convertir en professional; Crec, I didn’t fight for eight months. Sí, que finalment em vaig adonar que estic lluitant de nou, però això és una cosa que he fet tota la meva vida, and it should have been happening on a regular basis. El camp d'entrenament va ser genial. Inside and outside of the ring (durant la seva hiat anell), M'he estat preparant per a la matèria que canvia la vida, not just this one fight. But I’m fully focused on this fight against a tough, oponent fam.”
