ERROL SPENCE JR.

“Je forme ancienne école donc je ne vous inquiétez pas sur la façon dont Mikey envisage de se renforcer au poids. Je ne suis pas inquiet à ce sujet et je ne pense pas que cela fera une différence dans la lutte. Je vais juste de se concentrer sur ce que je dois faire pour être à mon meilleur.

“La taille compte toujours, mais quand vous arrivez là-bas, à la fin de la journée, il est sur les compétences et l'intelligence. Je ne vais pas compter sur la taille. Je vais me concentrer sur mon talent. Si je peux rouler à travers lui, alors je vais vous montrer mon instinct de tueur et essayer de le sortir de là. Je vais utiliser ma capacité à le briser.

“Au début, je pensais qu'il était juste pourchasse mon nom quand il me appelait à. Une fois qu'il est devenu réel, J'ai vu comment il était sérieux. À ce moment-là, je suis très confiant que cela arriverait.

“Je ne suis pas le despote ici parce que Mikey a vraiment poussé pour la lutte. Les autres champions ne sont pas disponibles au moment, ainsi que Mikey est le combattant que de haut niveau qui m'a appelé. Je savais que c'était un combat que je voulais.

“Mikey est invaincue, a un ensemble de grande compétence et a remporté un titre à 140 livres. Je ne le vois pas comme ce petit combattant. Il a un style technique qui est très traditionnel. Il aime utiliser des angles pour mettre son adversaire en.

“Nous nous concentrons sur ce que je peux faire et ce que notre plan de jeu est. J'ai toujours espar les mêmes personnes peu importe ce que parce qu'ils me mettre dans la condition que je dois être et ils me apprêté pour tous les défis.

“La division poids welter a toujours été l'une des plus fortes divisions dans le sport et il est comme ça maintenant. Nous avons juste besoin de se battre les uns des autres. Je suis prêt à se battre l'un d'eux. Celui qui finit au-dessus de ce groupe, mettra fin à être un Hall of Famer. Voilà comment vous devenez un tout-temps grand.

“C'est quelque chose que j'ai attendu toute ma vie. Je suis concentré et prêt à relever ce défi. Il va être tous les yeux sur moi et Mikey dans cet anneau et je ne peux pas attendre.

“Je suis heureux que quelqu'un me défie. J'ai cherché un adversaire comme lui. Il s'établit dans ce sport. Je suis heureux de pouvoir relever ce défi. Je suis à la recherche d'un habile Mikey Garcia pour faire ressortir le meilleur de moi en Mars 16.

“Ma vision est que ma main sera élevé dans la victoire, que ce soit un knock-out ou un combat de 12 rounds épuisante, Je me prépare pour la meilleure compétence Mikey Garcia sage, sage force et pour autant que son intelligence annulaire.”

Mikey GARCIA

“Ce sont le genre de défis que je veux. quelqu'un que je besoin comme Errol Spence Jr., avec son attitude et le style, pour faire ressortir le meilleur de moi. Je veux que le monde de voir enfin la pleine Mikey Garcia.

“La formation que nous avons fait dans la baie de San Francisco m'a certainement aidé. Nous allons en poids et besoin de faire un type de formation différent. Nous voulions nous assurer que nous avons gagné un peu de masse pour que je puisse être en mesure de tenir hors du poids et de la force de Spence Errol.

“La clé de ma formation de force est que nous ne voulions pas perdre ma vitesse et l'explosivité. Je vois maintenant que je suis de retour en combat que j'ai encore que la vitesse tout en gagnant du muscle que nous devions.

“Si les gens disent Errol est plus grand, qui est juste évident. Mais qui est plus rapide? Qui a une meilleure synchronisation? Il y a beaucoup plus qui va dans ce sport et qui va gagner ce combat particulier.

“Cela a été l'un des plus difficiles des camps que j'ai jamais eu. Nous travaillons sur beaucoup de différentes méthodes et techniques pour être à notre meilleur. Il va être plus grand que moi la nuit de combat, mais cela fait partie du défi. Je suis sais que depuis le début et c'est la raison pour laquelle nous avons formé la façon dont nous avons.

“Quand je l'ai vu combattre Lamont Peterson j'ai décidé que Errol Spence Jr. était le combat que je voulais une jours. Les gens ont essayé de me parler de lui, mais maintenant ils sont tous à bord. Les gens ont commencé à voir ce que je vais être capable de le Mars 16.

“Je veux le meilleur Errol Spence Jr. Je sais qu'il est un grand combattant avec beaucoup de compétences et de talents. Il n'a pas besoin d'utiliser toutes ses compétences, exactement comme moi. Il fait tout bien, mais rien de spectaculaire. Je me sens juste que je suis le meilleur combattant. Je pense avoir l'avantage partout, sauf peut-être le pouvoir, mais nous découvrirons la nuit de combat.

“C'est l'histoire en train de se faire. Je suis en train d'établir un grand héritage. C'est le genre de combat que j'ai besoin. Je sais que mes fans vont apparaître et me donner beaucoup de soutien. Ce combat me excite vraiment et motive.

“Je ne vais pas laisser passer cette combat loin. Je vais me établir comme l'un des meilleurs de la génération et finalement l'un des meilleurs de tous les temps.

“Même si certaines personnes croient que je suis l'outsider, Je ne me vois pas de cette façon. Je suis invaincue et je pense que Errol sait que je pose un défi. Il est pas une tâche facile pour l'un d'entre nous. C'est le combat que j'ai besoin pour mon héritage.”

DERRICK JAMES, Entraîneur de Spence

“Ce combat est tout au sujet du niveau de compétences, pas la taille. Taille entrera en jeu un peu, mais nous allons montrer que nous avons Skillset battre ce gars-là. C'est ce que Errol va montrer.

“Mikey Garcia a un bon style technique. Mais il y a toujours une méthode pour abattre un grand combattant. Je pense qu'un jour comme aujourd'hui nous inspirer encore plus à travailler encore plus dur. On peut le voir juste en face de nous. Son vrai et nous ne pouvons pas attendre.

“Quand j'ai vu Errol nous étions en fait sparring les uns des autres. Nous commencé à travailler ensemble et je suis arrivé à le voir marcher à travers gars après gars. Nous savions qu'il était un grand athlète, mais il a fallu du temps pour construire à l'endroit où j'ai commencé à se rendre compte qu'il était quelque chose de spécial.”

ROBERT GARCIA, Frère Garcia & Entraîneur

“C'est un grand défi pour nous d'aller en poids pour lutter contre le meilleur poids welter dans le monde. Mais ce n'est pas comme son’ n'a jamais été fait avant et je sais que Mikey a les compétences et le pouvoir de le retirer. Voilà ce que nous venons à Dallas pour faire.

“Ce sera l'occasion pour Mikey de continuer à construire son héritage. Il veut être connu comme l'un des plus grands combattants de tous les temps et une victoire sur Errol Spence Jr. est un grand pas vers ce.

“Je ne pense pas qu'ils ont vue sur Mikey. “Ils savent que le talent qu'il a. Ils se préparent pour un grand combat comme ils l'ont fait avant. Je pense qu'ils savent qu'ils sont dans un vrai combat.”

DAVID BENAVIDEZ

“Je suis de retour ici dans ce stade et que tout ce qui compte. Je suis vivant et l'apprentissage. Je ne peux pas attendre d'être en mesure de se battre à nouveau pour le titre mondial.

« En fait, je sparred avec J'leon Love quand j'avais 15 ans, âgé. Il est un grand combattant qui est un vétéran. Je ne suis pas lui donnant. Je suis une formation pour ce combat comme il est un combat pour le titre mondial. Quelque soit le style qu'il est livré avec, Je vais être prêt pour cela.

“Je suis meilleur que jamais. Tout a été une leçon apprise. Je devais asseoir pendant que je perdu ma place, alors maintenant je suis plus motivé que jamais. Cette année, nous laissons le passé dans le passé et revenir plus fort.”

Chris Arreola

“Je suis très heureux d'être de retour. Ce fut une longue mise à pied où je passais du temps avec mon fils et le regardait grandir. J'ai manqué ce sentiment d'être devant les fans et obtenir ce droit de l'énergie nerveuse avant un combat.

“Je prévois et j'espère une foule tapageuse sur Mars 16. Il y aura beaucoup de fans Spence et Garcia et beaucoup de grands combats. Nous Mexicains, nous aimons les combats.

“Je sais que mon adversaire est un gaucher et il est lisse. Il va essayer de me sortir de la boîte. Je sais qu'il ne va pas vouloir rester dans mon poste de gouverne. Je dois être en forme pour la distance et être prêt pour les tirs venant de différents angles.”

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

 

Angel Garcia et 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.

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.

LONG ISLAND, New York (Août 4, 2018) – Ancien champion du monde Autres 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) dans l'événement principal de Premier Boxing Champions sur FOX & FOX Deportes from NYCB LIVE, accueil du Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum.

 

 

 

I knew he was going to be quick and I knew he’d come to fight,” Saïd 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,” a déclaré 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,” Saïd 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,” a déclaré 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,” Saïd 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 Chocolate” Quillin (34-1-1, 23 KOs) gagner une décision unanime victoire sur J'Leon Amour (24-2-1, 13 KOs) après 10 tours de l'action des super-moyens.

 

 

 

It was very important for me to go up in there and break his spirit,” Saïd 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,” dit l'amour. “I have a lot of good fights left in front of me. Je serai de retour. 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.

 

 

 

Les juges ont noté le combat 99-91 et 98-92 deux fois, 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,” Saïd 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) après 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,” Saïd 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 et 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,” Saïd 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 du second tour.

 

 

 

He was a little bit tougher than the other guys I’ve fought so far,” dit 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 Lénine Castillo (17-2-1, 12 KOs) dans leur 10-ronde combat des lourds légers.

 

 

 

I wasn’t consistent enough or as effective as I wanted to be tonight,” Saïd 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, mais cela est la boxe. 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 et 98-91 deux fois.

 

 

 

I appreciated everyone who came out for me tonight,” Saïd 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, ancien champion du monde 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,” Saïd 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,” Saïd 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 dans une seconde tour.

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

 

AUTRES 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. Je suis vraiment impatient d'y être. 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. Je suis à relever le défi. Everyone knows I will fight anybody. Ça va être un grand combat. There’s going to be fireworks.

 

Peter Quillin

 

 

 

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

 

 

 

“C'est cool d'être ici. I want to give thanks for everyone who has helped me in the last 18 months while I recovered from my injury. It was hard, 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.

 

DiBella LOU, Président de DiBella Entertainment

 

 

 

This should be a sensational show on Saturday, live on FOX and FOX Deportes beginning at 7:30 p.m. ET. There is also a terrific show that actually begins on FS2 and FOX Deportes at 5:30 p.m. ET. 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.

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.

 

 

 

 

“Il n'y a pas de pression sur moi, 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.

 

 

 

“A la fin de la journée,, 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. Venez septembre 8, I will show the world once again why I am one of the best.

 

 

 

 

“A la fin de la journée,, 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 – puissance, quickness, 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.

 

 

 

“A la fin de la journée,, 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. Septembre 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.

 

Angel Garcia, Père de Danny & Entraîneur

 

 

 

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.

 

 

 

“Écouter, 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.

 

 

 

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

 

KENNY PORTER, Shawn’s Father & Entraîneur

 

 

 

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.

 

DiBella LOU, Président 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, période. 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, PDG de l'ESB mondial

 

 

 

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, Sport Président & Programmation de l'événement, Showtime Networks Inc.

 

 

 

“Garcia 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 combats, eight have been against former world champions. He always wants to fight in the very best fights.

 

 

 

Between the two of them, they have fought on SHOWTIME and/or CBS combined 20 fois. The best fighters, the biggest most meaningful fights. That’s what we have been doing, and with fighters like Danny and Shawn, we are going to continue to do it.
