Això és el que van dir els participants de la conferència de premsa dissabte des del Microsoft Theatre de L.A. Viu:

ERROL SPENCE JR.

“Entreno a la vella escola, així que no em preocupa com Mikey planeja fer-se més fort amb el pes. No estic preocupat per això i no crec que faci una diferència en la lluita. Només em centraré en el que he de fer per estar al màxim.

“La mida sempre importa, però quan entres allà, Al final del dia, es tracta d'habilitats i intel·ligència. No em dependré de la mida. Em centraré en el meu talent. Si puc passar per ell, llavors mostraré el meu instint assassí i intentaré treure'l d'allà. Vaig a utilitzar la meva habilitat per trencar-lo.

“Al principi vaig pensar que només perseguia el meu nom quan em cridava. Un cop es va fer real, Vaig veure com de seriós estava. En aquell moment estava molt segur que passaria.

“No sóc l'assetjador aquí perquè Mikey realment va empènyer la lluita. Els altres campions no estaven disponibles en aquell moment, a més, Mikey és l'únic lluitador superior que em va cridar. Sabia que aquesta era una lluita que volia.

“Mikey està invicte, té un gran conjunt d'habilitats i ha guanyat un títol a 140 lliures. No el veig com un lluitador tan petit. Té un estil tècnic molt tradicional. Li agrada fer servir els angles per configurar el seu oponent.

“Estem centrats en què puc fer i quin és el nostre pla de joc. Sempre estic a les mateixes persones sense importar el que passi perquè em posen en la condició en què necessito estar i em tenen preparat per a qualsevol repte..

“La divisió de pes welter sempre ha estat una de les divisions més fortes de l'esport i ara és així. Només hem de lluitar entre nosaltres. Estic preparat per lluitar contra qualsevol d'ells. Qui acabi al capdavant d'aquest grup, acabarà sent membre del Saló de la Fama. Així és com et converteixes en un gran de tots els temps.

“Això és una cosa que he estat esperant tota la meva vida. Estic concentrat i preparat per a aquest repte. Estarà tots els ulls posats en mi i en Mikey en aquest anell i no puc esperar.

“Estic content que algú em desafii. He estat buscant un rival com ell. S'ha consolidat en aquest esport. Estic content de poder assumir aquest repte. Estic buscant un Mikey Garcia hàbil per treure el millor de mi el març 16.

“La meva visió és que la meva mà s'aixecarà en la victòria, si es tracta d'un nocaut o d'una lluita extenuant de 12 asaltos, Estic preparant per a la millor habilitat de Mikey Garcia, força savi i fins a la seva intel·ligència anell.”

MIKEY GARCIA

“Aquests són els tipus de reptes que vull. Necessito algú com Errol Spence Jr., amb el seu comportament i estil, per treure el millor de mi. Vull que el món per fi vegi el Mikey Garcia complet.

“La formació que vam fer a la zona de la badia em va ajudar definitivament. Estem pujant de pes i hem de fer un altre tipus d'entrenament. Volíem assegurar-nos d'haver guanyat una mica de massa per poder aguantar el pes i la força d'Errol Spence..

“La clau del meu entrenament de força era que no volíem perdre la meva velocitat i explosivitat. Puc veure ara que he tornat a combatre que encara tinc aquesta velocitat alhora que guanya el múscul que havíem de.

“Si la gent diu que Errol és més gran, això és evident. Però qui és més ràpid? Qui té millor temps? Hi ha molt més en aquest esport i qui guanyarà aquesta lluita en particular.

“Aquest ha estat un dels campaments més durs que he tingut mai. Estem treballant en molts mètodes i tècniques diferents per estar al màxim. Serà més gran que jo a la nit de lluita, però això és part del repte. Ho sé des del principi i per això ens hem entrenat com hem fet.

“Quan el vaig veure lluitar contra Lamont Peterson vaig decidir que Errol Spence Jr. era la lluita que volia un dia. La gent va intentar dissuadir-me d'això, però ara estan tots a bord. La gent ara ha començat a veure de què seré capaç el març 16.

“Vull el millor Errol Spence Jr. Sé que és un gran lluitador amb moltes habilitats i talent. No ha necessitat utilitzar totes les seves habilitats, Igual que jo. Ho fa tot bé, però res d'espectacular. Simplement sento que sóc el millor lluitador. Crec que tinc l'avantatge a tot arreu excepte potser el poder, però ho sabrem la nit de la baralla.

“Això és història en procés. Estic intentant establir un gran llegat. Aquest és el tipus de lluita que necessito. Sé que els meus fans es presentaran i em donaran molt de suport. Aquesta lluita m'emociona i em motiva realment.

“No deixaré escapar aquesta lluita. Em consolidaré com un dels millors de la generació i, finalment, un dels millors de tots els temps.

“Tot i que algunes persones creuen que sóc el desfavorit, No em veig així. Estic invicte i crec que Errol sap que em plantejo un repte. No és una tasca fàcil per a cap de nosaltres. Aquesta és la lluita que necessito pel meu llegat.”

Derrick James, Entrenador de Spence

“Aquesta lluita es refereix al conjunt d'habilitats, no la mida. La mida entrarà en joc una mica, però mostrarem el conjunt d'habilitats que tenim per vèncer aquest noi. Això és el que mostrarà Errol.

“Mikey Garcia té un bon estil tècnic. Però sempre hi ha un mètode per derrotar a un gran lluitador. Crec que un dia com avui ens inspirarà encara més a treballar encara més. El podem veure just davant nostre. És real i no podem esperar.

“Quan vaig veure l'Errol per primera vegada ens estàvem lluitant. Vam començar a treballar junts i el vaig poder veure caminar noi rere noi. Sabíem que era un gran esportista, però vaig trigar un temps a construir fins on vaig començar a adonar-me que era una cosa especial.”

ROBERT GARCIA, El germà de Garcia & Entrenador

“Aquest és un gran repte per a nosaltres pujar de pes per lluitar contra el millor pes welter del món. Però no és com el seu’ mai s'havia fet abans i sé que Mikey té les habilitats i el poder per aconseguir-ho. Això és el que anem a fer a Dallas.

“Aquesta és una oportunitat perquè Mikey continuï construint el seu llegat. Vol ser conegut com un dels millors lluitadors de tots els temps i una victòria sobre Errol Spence Jr.. és un gran pas cap a això.

“No crec que hagin passat per alt Mikey. “Coneixen el talent que té. S'estan preparant per a una gran lluita com ho han fet abans. Crec que saben que estan en una lluita real.”

DAVID BENAVIDEZ

“He tornat aquí en aquesta etapa i això és tot el que importa. Estic vivint i aprenent. No puc esperar per estar en condicions de tornar a lluitar pel títol mundial.

"De fet, vaig lluitar amb J'Leon Love quan tenia 15 anys. És un gran lluitador que és un veterà. No l'estic passant per alt. M'estic entrenant per a aquesta lluita com si fos una lluita pel títol mundial. Sigui quin sigui l'estil amb què vingui, Estaré preparat per a això.

“Estic millor que mai. Tot ha estat una lliçó apresa. Vaig haver de seure mentre perdia el meu lloc, així que ara estic més motivat que mai. Aquest any deixem el passat en el passat i tornem amb més força.”

CHRIS Arreola

“Estic emocionat de tornar. Va ser un llarg acomiadament on vaig passar temps amb el meu fill i el vaig veure créixer. Vaig trobar a faltar aquesta sensació d'estar davant dels aficionats i obtenir aquesta energia nerviosa just abans d'una baralla.

“Estic anticipant i espero una multitud bulliciosa el març 16. Hi haurà molts fans de Spence i Garcia i moltes baralles genials. Nosaltres els mexicans, ens encanten les baralles.

“Sé que el meu oponent és un zurt i és maca. Intentarà treure'm la caixa. Sé que no voldrà quedar-se a la meva timonera. He d'estar en forma per recórrer la distància i estar preparat per a trets que arribin des de diferents angles.”

JERRY JONES, Propietari dels Dallas Cowboys, President i Director General

En acollir a Spence i Garcia en partits separats a casa dels Cowboys la temporada passada:
“Simplement va ser bo tocar els colzes amb els campions. Vull que tot el que tinguin s'hagi de treure a mi i als Dallas Cowboys.

“El fet que FOX estigui implicat i el seu interès en aquesta lluita és sorprenent. Hem tingut grans esdeveniments amb FOX, inclòs el Super Bowl. El nostre estadi va ser realment construït per a la boxa. Aquests lluitadors estaran dempeus 70 peus d'alçada suspesos per sobre de l'anell del tauler de vídeo. És una manera excel·lent de sentir que estàs tan a prop que estàs rebent els cops d'aquests grans lluitadors.

“Estem molt emocionats per la nostra base de fans mexicano-americans. Aquesta és una gran zona per a la boxa. Ens encanta participar en un esdeveniment com aquest de la manera que puguin els Cowboys. Sobretot amb dos grans lluitadors com Spence i Garcia.

“Crec que veureu una lluita amb campions destacats involucrats el març 16. No pots veure el millor contra el millor molt sovint. A l'AT&Estadi T, ho veuràs d'una manera que no es pot igualar a les instal·lacions esportives normals. L'aura de tenir milers d'aficionats com en un partit de futbol és inigualable. És una gran experiència i estem orgullosos de formar part de la boxa.”

Richard Schaefer, President & Director general d'Esports Ringstar

“El guanyador d'aquesta lluita serà lliura per lliura el millor del món. Tothom estaria d'acord que aquests dos nois estan al capdavant d'aquesta llista, i crec que qui guanyi serà el número u. Aquesta és una coronació per a qui avui és el rei de l'esport.

“Mikey Garcia és tècnicament un dels millors lluitadors del món. Errol Spence Jr. és un fort, lluitador decidit que només vol demostrar que és el millor. Aquesta lluita és una oportunitat per als dos nois de demostrar que són els millors del món.”

TOM BROWN, President de Promocions TGB

“Aquest és un veritable esdeveniment de gran èxit, digne d'aquesta increïble roda de premsa en directe a FOX. Aquests dos lluitadors no només són superestrelles de l'esport, però el guanyador d'aquesta lluita podrà reivindicar ser el número u lliura per lliura.

“FOX i els Dallas Cowboys han donat un gran suport a aquest esdeveniment i esperem una vetllada inoblidable el març. 16. Mikey Garcia s'atreveix realment a ser fantàstic contra un lluitador a Errol Spence Jr. que s'ha establert com la classe de la divisió de 147 lliures.”

QUÈ: SHOWTIME Sports® Emmy-award winning reporter Jim Gray sat down with the fathers of Danny García i Shawn Porter as the two former world champions prepare to meet September 8 for the vacant WBC Welterweight World Championship on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING.

 

Ángel García i Kenny Porter, who both also serve as their sons’ trainers, are asked by Gray how they react when they watch their sons take punishment in the ring.

 

 

 

“As a dad, I have to separate the boxing,” Angel Garcia said. “So when Danny’s in there I’ve got to look at him as a coach. I can’t look at it as a dad.”

 

 

 

Said Kenny Porter: “As a former boxer, I felt what it’s like to be in that ring… So I feel differently when he’s in the ring. I have a more competitive spirit towards winning than maybe someone who’s kid is in there and they’re looking at whether the kid is getting injured. I’m looking at it like, let’s win.”

 

 

 

Gray gets Porter and Garcia to open up about challenges, regrets and the aspirations they’ve carried for their progeny both in the ring and outside of it. “I do [have regrets],” Angel Garcia said. “I said my faults. I’m not perfect.”

 

 

 

Angel called himself the “most underrated trainer” in boxing today, and Danny the “most underrated fighter.”

 

 

 

At the end of the interview, Kenny unveils a Garcia “DSG” T-shirt that reads: “Showtime Destroys Garcia” and both fathers shared a big laugh.

 

 

 

Live coverage of the SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast begins at 9 p.m. ET / 6 pm. PT and also features top 147-pound contender Yordenis Ugas(22-3, 11 KOs) taking on Argentine slugger César Barrionuevo (34-3-2, 24 KOs) and unbeaten Polish heavyweight contender Adam Kownacki (17-0, 14 KOs) facing former heavyweight champion Charles Martin (25-1-1, 23 KOs). The Premier Boxing Champions event takes place from Barclays Center, la casa de BROOKLYN BOXA ™.

LONG ISLAND, Nova York (Agost 4, 2018) – L'ex campió del món Andre Berto(32-5, 24 KOs) won a back-and-forth fight by split decision Saturday night against fellow former champion Devon Alexander (27-4-1, 14 KOs) in the main event of Premier Boxing Champions on FOX & FOX Deportes from NYCB LIVE, home of the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum.

 

 

 

I knew he was going to be quick and I knew he’d come to fight,” dir Berto. “I had to get adjusted to his speed a little bit and then I started pressing him. I felt like I was in better shape and quicker to the target than he was.

 

 

 

Alexander struck first as his southpaw stance appeared to give Berto trouble early. Alexander connected with a series of powerful right hooks in round two before following up in round three with a straight right that landed on Berto and allowed Alexander to score a knockdown with follow-up hooks.

 

 

 

We knew that we had enough power to hurt him and I felt like I was doing that early in the fight,” va dir Alexander. “I slowed down in the middle of the fight, but there’s no excuses. We both came to fight.

 

 

 

The bout saw numerous clashes and tie ups, but as the rounds went on Berto’s relentlessness allowed him to score against a tiring Alexander. Berto had success in the seventh round tagging Alexander on the inside as he began to break through his opponent’s defense.

 

 

 

I’ve been off for a while but I felt good in there,” dir Berto. “He was pulling back on a lot of his punches so I stepped in for my combinations and made him pay.

 

 

 

The back-and-forth fight concluded with both fighters slugging it out until the final bell and appearing to have worn each other down from the 12-round bout. The scores reflected the close nature of the bout as once judge scored it 114-113 for Alexander, but was overruled by two judges scoring the bout 115-112 for Berto.

 

 

 

I thought I edged it out, but it was a close fight,” va dir Alexander. “We’re climbing back still. This happens. I’m going to talk to my team and see what the best move is going forward.

 

 

 

This is a tremendous feeling,” dir Berto. “I’m looking forward to getting in there and doing it again.

 

 

 

 

The co-main event on FOX and FOX Deportes saw former middleweight world champion Peter “Kid Xocolata” Quillin (34-1-1, 23 KOs) earn a unanimous decision victory over J'Leon Amor (24-2-1, 13 KOs) després 10 rondes d'acció súper mitjà.

 

 

 

It was very important for me to go up in there and break his spirit,” Said Quillin. “I established my will in there, but I’ll wait to judge how I looked until I see the tape.

 

 

 

Quillin’s power and punch output proved to be the difference as he focused on getting into range of Love while delivering power punches to back Love up. With his promoter, all-time great Floyd Mayweather, sitting ringside, Love focused on a strategy that saw him move throughout the 10 rounds while trying to build his offense off of his jab.

 

 

 

Sometimes you don’t have your best night, but I’m far from done,” va dir Amor. “I have a lot of good fights left in front of me. tornaré. I could have pressed a little bit more, but he’s a puncher. I wasn’t trying to turn it into a brawl. I went at him and then slid right out. That was the game plan.

 

 

 

Round eight began with Quillin on the offensive as he pinned Love in the corner and unloaded a massive series of shots, many of which landed flush. Love was able to avoid any serious danger from the onslaught, but was never able to land anything that bothered Quillin over the remaining moments of the fight.

 

 

 

Els jutges van anotar la baralla 99-91 i 98-92 dues vegades, all in favor of Quillin.

 

 

 

For people who think that I had ring rust, we’ve been in the gym training hard to be ready for a challenge like this,” Said Quillin. “We’re going to build from this and use it from a foundation. Only time will tell what comes next, but we’ll use this as a measuring stick.

 

 

 

The opening bout on FOX and FOX Deportes featured former world champion Sergey Lipinets (14-1, 10 KOs) as he earned a majority decision over Erick Os (20-6, 8 KOs) després 10 rounds of welterweight action.

 

 

 

I always take a couple of rounds to figure the guy out, but once I loosened up I felt pretty good,” said Lipinets. “I loaded up on my punches a little more than I had to, but this fight was exactly what I needed to get myself ready for another big challenge soon.

 

 

 

Both fighters spent most of the bout exchanging single power punches, with Lipinets showing off his superior power to bust open Bone’s nose in the early rounds and cause blood to pour from it throughout the rest of the fight.

 

 

 

Lipinets continued to throw power punches to the end, connecting with a left hook midway through the final frame that caused Bone to jump back toward the ropes. One judge scored the fight a 95-95 draw but was overruled by scores of 99-91 i 98-92.

 

 

 

 

If anybody saw any flaws in my performance today, then they’re welcome to step up and come take the fight against me,” said Lipinets. “Everyone knows that I’m going to come and bring a great fight to whoever is in front of me

 

 

 

Additional FOX and FOX Deportes action featured rising unbeaten prospect Joey Spencer (4-0, 4 KOs) as he delivered a dominant second-round knockout over Bruce Lutchmedial (2-5, 2 KOs) in their middleweight clash.

 

 

 

The 18-year-old former amateur standout first landed a series of body blows midway through round two that forced his opponent to take a knee. Spencer followed up with a combination to the head that put Lutchmedial down and forced referee Arthur Mercante to call off the bout at 2:59 de la segona ronda.

 

 

 

He was a little bit tougher than the other guys I’ve fought so far,” said Spencer. “I had to go down to the body after I realized in the first round that the head shots weren’t as effective. Eventually the body shots were too much for him.

 

 

 

I just want to keep building my record, keep fighting better opponents and keep growing as a fighter. At the end of the day I want to fight for a title in the next few years.

 

 

 

The main event on FS2 and FOX Deportes saw Marcus Browne (22-0, 16 KOs) work through a mid-round knockdown on his way to a unanimous decision victory over Lenin Castell (17-2-1, 12 KOs) en el seu 10 assalts en pes semipesado.

 

 

 

I wasn’t consistent enough or as effective as I wanted to be tonight,” va dir Browne. “I fought in spurts too much. I need to be more consistent to get the performance I want.

 

 

 

The knockdown felt like a slip to me, però això és boxa. I just had to keep focus and move forward to get the win.

 

 

 

The Staten Island-native Browne showed off his impressive speed and jab through the early rounds of the fight, keeping Castillo’s offense at bay. As the fight opened up in the middle rounds, Castillo caught Browne with a right hand during a wild exchange that knocked him off balance and caused him to hit the mat.

 

 

 

Browne was able to recover with ease and continued to show off his boxing skills throughout the remainder of the night, as Castillo was unable to replicate his round five success. The judges saw the fight for Browne by the scores of 97-92 i 98-91 dues vegades.

 

 

 

I appreciated everyone who came out for me tonight,” va dir Browne. “I’m ready to move on to the next challenge. I’m going to stay focused and be even better next time.

 

 

 

Also on FS2 and FOX Deportes, l'ex campió del món Luis Collazo (38-7, 20 KOs) earned a majority decision victory over Bryant Perrella (15-2, 13 KOs) in their 10-round welterweight showdown.

 

 

 

Perrella entered the ring with the reach and height advantage, but the veteran Collazo quickly strategized to walk through Perrella’s jab to deliver power punches. Collazo started to inflict damage beginning in rounds three and four when he had Perella stunned several times against the ropes.

 

 

 

Perrella didn’t have much power, which allowed me to just stay on top of him and smother his punches,” Said Collazo. “I was able to play the aggressor and control the fight.

 

 

 

Collazo had to continue to stalk the increasingly evasive Perrella, but was able to show off his impressive ring savvy by cutting off the ring to implement his offense. Collazo had Perrella hurt badly in the late rounds of the fight, but Perrella was able to show enough toughness and athleticism to see the final bell.

 

 

 

I’ve had a lot of fights that prepared me for what I had to do tonight,” Said Collazo. “I felt strong in there, but I’ll know more once I look at the tape. I want one of the top welterweights next.

 

 

 

The opening bout on FS2 and FOX Deportes saw rising unbeaten prospect Gary Antuanne Russell (7-0, 7 KOs), younger brother of WBC Featherweight World Champion Gary Russell Jr., deliver a powerful first round knockout over Mexico’s Jose Esquivel (10-7, 2 KOs).

 

 

 

Russell threw a right hook to the head and followed it up with a perfect left hook to Esquivel’s stomach that put his opponent down for good, with the official stoppage coming 25 segons a la primera ronda.

Here is what the participants had to say Thursday from The JetBlue Overlook at NYCB Live, home of the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum:

 

ALTRES BERTO

 

 

 

A lot of these people on this card have been guys I’ve been around since they were coming up. I’ve been in the game for a while and I’ve been cracking heads for a while.

 

 

 

We had a tremendous training camp for this fight. I took time to rejuvenate myself and I’ve come back and gotten myself into great shape. I appreciate what Devon Alexander has been through, but he’s dealing with a different animal on Saturday night.

 

 

 

I’ve pushed hard to give myself the best chance to win on Saturday. We’ve prepared for everything that we think Devon can bring. I’m physically and mentally prepared for a battle.

 

 

 

I’m going to push Devon. I don’t think he’s fought any that brings what I do since he came back from his layoff. We’re going to see if he’s back. If he’s not ready, then I’m going to make it a long night for him.

 

 

 

It’s all business on Saturday night. Tinc moltes ganes de fer-ho. It’s going to be dynamite. It’s going to be a good time.

 

Devon Alexander

 

 

 

I’m thankful that I can continue to fight, build my legacy and do something I love. I’m grateful to be here and show off my talent. I’m still writing my legacy and Berto is just another stepping stone in my way. I have to get past him.

 

 

 

We had a great training camp down in Florida. Coach Cunningham has prepared me as well as for any fight in my career. The focus and dedication we put into camp will all show in the ring on fight night.

 

 

 

Andre Berto was a great champion and I definitely respect what he’s done in this sport. Both of us need this win badly though and I’m sure neither of us will look to take a step back on our way to a victory.

 

 

 

I love being in New York. I always get a lot of love from the fans, and they’re definitely a passionate group of fans. I’m going to be ready for the bright lights on Saturday.

 

 

 

I have to thank Berto for accepting the challenge. We go way back to the amateur days. Estic a punt per al repte. Everyone knows I will fight anybody. Serà una gran baralla. There’s going to be fireworks.

 

PETER Quillín

 

 

 

I am more than ready for this fight. I have a lot of history with J’Leon Love. I’m going to be ready for him and it’s going to be a fight the fans won’t want to miss.

 

 

 

I’m very blessed to be back in this position. Coach Sosa has really been a great gift for me. He’s helped me mentally and physically build on everything I had done with Virgil Hunter in the two years prior.

 

 

 

Being back in New York definitely helps make me feel like I’ve made it back. I can be back in front of my fans, and most importantly my family, so that I can feel their support and let it carry me in the ring.

 

 

 

 

We’ve worked on everything in camp and we’re ready to put on a show Saturday. I’m ready to show everyone that I still have what it takes to compete for a world title. This is something I’ve been looking forward to for a long time now.

 

JLEON LOVE

 

 

 

I appreciate people coming out. I love coming to New York. This is a great card with so many great fighters and I’m grateful for the opportunity.

 

 

 

I’ve been waiting for this for a long time. Come August 4, you will see me display my talent. I have nothing but respect for Peter Quillin, but this is why they call it the crossroads. We have to run into each other.

 

 

 

I’m not worried about anything Peter has done in past fights. I’m prepared for the best Peter Quillin we’ve seen. He’s not going to catch me by surprise in there.

 

 

 

I just have to be smart, listen to my corner and impose my game plan. I know that I have the skills to win and win convincingly. If I follow the game plan, I’m going to show everyone I’m ready for the best in the division.

 

 

 

I’m excited to be back in New York. I’m planning on riding the energy from the crowd, whether it’s rooting against me or with me, and giving everyone something to remember.

 

MARCUS BROWNE

 

 

 

It’s been a while but I’m thankful to be back. I’m super ready to go in there on Saturday night and put on a show for you guys. I’m going to do what I do best, and keep my name in title contention.

 

 

 

I know that my opponent is skilled and he’s going to be ready to try to upset me. But I’ve worked too hard in camp to let anyone walk into my home and beat me. It’s just not happening.

 

 

 

I’ve made sure to just stay patient and know that my time is coming. I’m going to keep adding to my resume until there’s no one who can deny my shot.

 

 

 

I’m trying to get this done impressively, but I’ll take the win however I can get it. At this point it’s about continuing to win so that I can keep myself at the top of the rankings. I want a world title shot and I’m ready for it.

 

LUIS COLLAZO

 

 

 

“És genial ser aquí. I want to give thanks for everyone who has helped me in the last 18 months while I recovered from my injury. Va ser dur, but it was a process I had to go to.

 

 

 

My team has supported me through thick and thin no matter what I’ve been through. That included my dad, who originally brought me into the gym when I was a kid. This is just what I love to do.

 

 

 

My opponent is young and desperate to put a name on his record. He’s got some skills that we’ve prepared for. I’m confident he doesn’t have anything I haven’t seen before.

 

 

 

I’m ready to go to work on August 4. I’m going to give the fans a great fight and another night to remember with me in the ring.

 

ALICIA NAPOLEON

 

 

 

This is a big card with a lot of action and I’m proud to be on it. Hannah is a wonderful champion and this is going to be a great fight. This is a tremendous opportunity and we’re going to continue to push for better and better opportunities for female fighters.

 

 

 

 

This is a fight you won’t want to miss. I’ve had a great camp and I’m prepared for another war. I won this title at Barclays Center in March and I can’t wait to see everyone out cheering for us on Saturday.

 

 

 

It’s an honor to be fighting at home. I really take it to heart that there are young female fighters out there who watch me for inspiration. It helps motivate me and I believe it’s going to help me defend my title successfully on Saturday.

 

HANNAH RANKIN

 

 

 

It’s fantastic to be on such a great card. I’ve been looking for a big fight like this and it couldn’t have come at a better time for me.

 

 

 

When I got the call for this fight I was obviously going to say yes. Camp has been amazing and I can’t wait to go in there on Saturday night and show everyone what I’m capable of.

 

 

 

This is a worthy opponent and I’m glad that she accepted the challenge. I’ve come too far to leave New York without the championship belt.

 

Lou DiBella, El president de DiBella Entertainment

 

 

 

This should be a sensational show on Saturday, live on FOX and FOX Deportes beginning at 7:30 p.m. I. There is also a terrific show that actually begins on FS2 and FOX Deportes at 5:30 p.m. I. This is a loaded card from top to bottom, as you can see from the dais here. It features a number of the best fighters in the world.

 

 

 

The main event features two men in Andre Berto and Devon Alexander who are both multiple time world champions, well known fighters and fighters who need this win. The recipe for a great fight is two terrific boxers who must win.

 

 

 

The co-featured event is a similar bout. Peter Quillin and J’Leon Love are guys who are in the championship picture at 168-pounds. The reality is the winner of this fight will have a chance to fight for the title soon.

 

 

 

There’s a women’s title fight on this card that features Long Island’s only boxing world champion, in Alicia Napoleon. She’s a popular local fighter who is going to make the first defense of her title on Saturday. She will fight the pride of Scotland, in Hannah Rankin, in what should be a great bout. These are two champions of the sport and we’re honored to have them in the ring Saturday.

LONG ISLAND, Nova York (Agost 1, 2018) – Former middleweight champion Peter “Kid Xocolata” Quillin and WBA Super Middleweight Women’s World Champion Alícia “The Empress” Napoleó visited Crestwood Day Camp Wednesday afternoon and hosted a motivational and fitness training session with over 200 campers.

 

 

 

Quillin and the Lindenhurst-native Napoleon took advantage of the opportunity to share positive messages with the campers ahead of their respective matchups taking place this Saturday, Agost 4 from NYCB LIVE, home of the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum.

 

 

 

Being a boxer is my lifestyle, and to be able to share some of the things that made me who I am with these kids is a great joy,” Said Quillin. “It’s so important to reach out to the next generation and give them the tools to live positively. As a pro athlete I consider that part of my job and something I take pride in doing.

 

 

 

I’m so happy to be here and give something back for these children,” said Napoleon. “Sharing different tips and motivations while I’m here is really an honor. I’m focused on defending my title Saturday night, but something like this is really a treat. I hope they all had fun and learned something they didn’t know before today.

 

 

 

The fighters spoke to the larger group of campers and showed them some training techniques before running a half hour fitness session for about 25 seven and eight-year-olds to round out the afternoon.

Here is what the press conference participants had to say Monday from the Dream Hotel Downtown in Manhattan:

 

DANNY GARCIA

 

 

 

I’m excited for this fight because I’m a world championship-level fighter and this gives me the chance to be back where I’ve been for so long. It doesn’t matter who it is, I’m just happy to be back and fighting for the title.

 

 

 

 

The loss against Keith Thurman hurt me for a little bit. I thought I finished the fight strong and won. At the end of the day though, I feel motivated again. I feel more motivated now than I did before the fight. There’s something different inside of me.

 

 

 

 

“No hi ha pressió sobre mi, I’m just going to come to fight. We can dance if he wants, but I guarantee I’m coming to bang with him in the middle of the ring. I feel I’m the stronger puncher, have the faster hands and am the better all-around fighter.

 

 

 

 

I’m so used to hearing my dad’s voice during a fight. Me and my dad are different than other people. We do a lot together outside of the ring. We’re friends first because of where we came from. We’re enjoying every moment and we’re hungry for me.

 

 

 

“Al final de la dia, my mindset is fully focused on September 8. I have to go grab this title and then you can ask me to fight anyone. I’ve never turned down an opponent in my career. I’m a fighter and this is what I do.

 

 

 

 

This wasn’t the first time someone has called me out and it won’t be the last. Vinga setembre 8, I will show the world once again why I am one of the best.

 

 

 

 

“Al final de la dia, I have to go in there and make adjustments and do what I do best. I’ll set the tempo and the pace and take it one round at a time.

 

 

 

 

The fans at Barclays Center love me. This is the ‘Danny Garcia Show.Whenever I fight here, all I hear is ‘DSG! DSG!.’ They are going to be there for me.

 

SHAWN PORTER

 

 

 

I think for a long time, watching Danny do what he does and hearing him say what he’d do to me, I got stirred up to the point where I really wanted this fight. I made that known after his fight against Brandon Rios and I think that’s why we’re here right now.

 

 

 

This is a great opportunity to get the fight I wanted for my career. I’m thriving right now and you’ll see it all on fight night.

 

 

 

I’m a very difficult fighter to prepare for. You never know what you’ll get with me. I’m used to being the underdog and I thrive on it. I’m the more intelligent fighter at the end of the day.

 

 

 

Me and my dad are a little different than Angel and Danny. Boxing is our way of life and this is what he’s grown me into. Fight night is like Christmas or another birthday. That’s when we come together the most and make the best of every opportunity.

 

 

 

Brooklyn doesn’t like me because of what I wear or what I say, they like me because I come to fight and I entertain. That’s all because of my dad and the tools he’s given me to be the very best that I could be.

 

 

 

All of my abilities – energia, rapidesa, the whole nine will help me get this victory. To beat Danny Garcia, you have to use your whole arsenal. Especially beating him in the fashion we want to beat him in. We want to look great.

 

 

 

We have seen Danny in the ring with different fighters with different styles. You can be aggressive and beat him, you can use the ring and outbox him, we are going to use them all.

 

 

 

“Al final de la dia, I learned a lesson in my last fight. My dad told me not to do anything for the crowd. You have to do what you have to do to win. Setembre 8 isn’t going to be about making the crowd yell and winning them over. That is already done. It is a matter of going in there with whatever game plan we go with and making it happen.

 

 

 

The belt is all I want. Winning a title is always special, but beating Danny Garcia for it will be icing on the cake. He’s been a top fighter for a long time and this win will help solidify me. Once I have the belt, the sky’s the limit.

 

ÀNGEL GARCÍA, Pare de Danny & Entrenador

 

 

 

I don’t see anything special in Shawn Porter. He comes with his head, he comes wild. We’re going to take care of him and we’re going to work on him. He’s not bringing anything to the table that I haven’t seen before. It’s Danny’s time.

 

 

 

At the end of the day we got a fight. Words are just words. I’d give my life for Danny. I’d take a bullet for him, I love him.

 

 

 

“Escolta, when Danny hits him on the right side he’s going to feel it on the left. My son’s power is like nothing he’s ever seen before.

 

 

 

“Escolta, at the end of the night September 8º, Danny will be champion again. That belt is coming home with us and back to Philadelphia.

 

KENNY PORTER, El pare de Shawn & Entrenador

 

 

 

We really enjoy fighting at Barclays Center. The energy there is different than any other location. It is a comfortable location for us and it is going to be an exciting night.

 

 

 

Training has been different in a lot of ways, but a very good different. We are doing a lot of things that we have never done before and we are excited about that. To do different things that create excitement and make you look forward to coming to train is always good.

 

 

 

They will not be prepared for us on fight night. We will start to focus on some of the things that we will do for Danny and in that aspect, there are some things we will have to prepare for differently.

 

 

 

The biggest thing is to make sure is that Shawn is ready. We’re going to have a solid game plan that Shawn will know how to implement. We’re going to make Danny adjust to us.

 

Lou DiBella, El president de DiBella Entertainment

 

 

 

These are two guys who have really made a name for themselves fighting in Brooklyn. They’ve been a part of the best fights in Brooklyn. They are two of the best fighters and most exciting fighters in the sport. This is as good as it gets style-wise, període. These guys get that this is entertainment. These are two guys that entertain.

 

 

 

Shawn has come out on the short end a couple of times, and clearly those fights could have been scored differently. They were sensational fights as all of his bouts tend to be.

 

 

 

Danny Garcia doesn’t get enough respect, he gets out there and wins. He’s a great fighter who does everything well, which makes him extremely dangerous.

 

 

 

These guys have earned this opportunity and the winner deserves the belt. The winner will get one of the biggest fights in the sport after this. Both guys are professionals who know the stakes on September 8.

 

 

 

This is going to be an electric fight. The fans will be on the edge of their seats this whole night and you’re not going to want to miss it.

 

 

 

These are two guys who know how to fight and will entertain you. Make sure you get your tickets early.

 

BRETT Yormark, CEO de BSE Global

 

 

 

As Lou said September 8th should be terrific. I am personally looking forward to it. It adds to our resume of BROOKLYN BOXING. It comes almost right at our 6th anniversary of Barclays Center.

 

 

 

Both fighters are veterans in our ring. This is Danny’s seventh fight in Brooklyn and Shaw’s fifth and they have built fan bases here. Our presale in the first few days have been terrific.

 

 

 

Danny opened the building for BROOKLYN BOXING almost six years ago and we thank you for that and we thank you for continuing to come back.

 

 

 

Shawn’s last three fights have been in Brooklyn. I think you and your dad have been sitting ringside for every fight in Brooklyn and we are thrilled to have you back.

 

 

 

We are thankful to be hosting the boxing industry time and time again and we are as committed as ever to bring the best of the best to Brooklyn and doing it consistently throughout the year. I look forward to seeing everyone on the 8th. It should be a spectacular night.

 

STEPHEN ESPINOZA, President Esports & Programació d'esdeveniments, Showtime Networks Inc.

 

 

 

“García vs. Porter will be the 12th SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING event of the year. That is just through September. Adding our other live boxing events, we have done 24 live boxing presentations this year. It is not just quantity; it is high quality.

 

 

 

Eight times on SHOWTIME this year alone, there have been top five fighters fighting each other. Here we have two of the strongest resumes not just in the welterweight division, but in the sport overall.

 

 

 

Danny Garcia has 12 fights against current or former world champions. There is no question that Danny Garcia has one of the strongest resumes in the sport. I don’t think he gets credit for it and it is time that he does. Of Shawn’s last 11 baralles, eight have been against former world champions. He always wants to fight in the very best fights.

“I’m excited and motivated to go in there and recapture what’s mine,", va dir Garcia. “The WBC title belongs to me. Vinga setembre 8, I’m going to prove that I’m the best fighter in the world. My loss is behind me and it’s given me a chip on my shoulder to run that extra mile and train even harder. I know that Shawn Porter is not on my level. I’m coming to fight him in the middle of the ring and I’m going to beat him at his game.”

 

 

 

“I’m going to force Danny Garcia to fight me, to be uncomfortable and to do things he’s not used to doing in a fight,” said Porter. “If Danny comes in being defensive and trying to hold, it may last a while. But if he comes and tries to trade with me and prove something to himself, then it will end fast. I think my style will give him problems and not allow him to pace himself. This is going to be an instant classic and I’m going to win and become champion once again.”

 

 

 

García (34-1, 20 KOs) ha lluitat i derrotat many of the most formidable opponents at 140 and 147-pounds spanning two generations—Erik Morales, Zab Judah, Kendall Holt, Amir Khan, Lucas Matthysse, Paulie Malignaggi and Lamont Peterson among them. Five of his six opponents in the welterweight division were world champions and 11 del seu passat 15 oponents van ser campions del món o ex campions del món.

 

 

 

Representing the fighting city of Philadelphia, Garcia has made Brooklyn another home base, drawing big crowds in six fights since the arena opened in 2012 including his triumphs over Morales, Judá, Peterson and Malignaggi and a narrow decision loss to Keith Thurman in a blockbuster world title unification that aired on CBS. The 30-year-old put himself into position to earn back his WBC belt with a highlight-reel knockout of Brandon Rios in a title eliminator February on SHOWTIME.

 

 

 

Desgast (28-2-1, 17 KOs) owns victories over four-division champion Adrien Broner and two-division champion Paulie Malignaggi over a career that has seen him develop a reputation as one of the sport’s most reliable all-action attractions. He lost a narrow decision to unified welterweight champion Keith Thurman in a 2016 Fight of the Year candidate in Brooklyn but rebounded with two victories last year at Barclays Center. He scored a TKO victory against former welterweight champion Andre Berto in a welterweight title eliminator and followed it up with a 12-round decision over Adrian Granados.

 

 

 

The 30-year-old Porter, who was born in Akron, Ohio and now lives in Las Vegas, will fight at Barclays Center for the fifth time on September 8, including his title-winning performance against Devon Alexander that earned him the IBF title in 2013.

 

 

 

“Danny Garcia vs. Shawn Porter will be an action-packed, can’t-miss brawl,Va dir Lou Dibella, El president de DiBella Entertainment. “This hugely important matchup is between two of the best welterweights in the world and pressure fighters with pleasing styles. Both Garcia and Porter have shined in memorable battles at Barclays Center and September 8 will be a tremendous night for boxing.”

 

 

 

“Danny Garcia against Shawn Porter in a welterweight title fight is a throwback to the era when you had Thomas Hearns battling Roberto Duran,’’ said Tom Brown, President de Promocions TGB. “Their styles are tailor-made to create action in the ring. Porter comes forward and throws punches in bunches and Garcia doesn’t back up for anyone. This one will be decided in the center of the ring like all the great welterweight championship matches.’’

 

 

 

“In 2018 SHOWTIME has delivered the biggest and most meaningful matchups in boxing, and Garcia vs. Porter is no exception,"Va dir Stephen Espinoza, President, Esports & Programació d'esdeveniments, Showtime Networks Inc. “This will be our sixth fight this year featuring consensus top-10 welterweights, an unrivaled offering of elite fighters in boxing’s glamour division.

I know they are both eager to earn another world title and send a statement to the other champions in the welterweight division.”
