“The heavyweight division is as talented and exciting as ever,and we are thrilled to add two undefeated warriorsto the April 13 телевизионно предаване,” said promoter Dmitriy Salita. “We have the best American heavyweight prospect in Jermaine Franklin and one of the best European heavyweight contenders in Otto Wallin. These fights will be tremendous lead-ins to the historic Shields vs. Hammer main event and will create a night to remember for boxing fans worldwide.”
The 25-year-old Franklin (17-0, 13 Нокаута), from Saginaw, Mich., is a former amateur standout and a 2014 Национален шампион за златни ръкавици. A likely candidate to represent the U.S. в 2016 Олимпийски игри, Franklin turned down the opportunity to compete for a spot on the team and instead chose to begin his professional career in 2015. Widely regarded as the top American heavyweight prospect, Franklin has built his undefeated record with relative ease since turning pro, knocking out nine of his first 10 professional opponents. Coming off a lopsided 10-round decision over Craig Lewis in July, Franklin aims to continue moving up the ranks of the resurgent heavyweight division in 2019 and position himself for a title shot.
“Не мога да чакам – I am ready to show that I am the new man in the heavyweight division,” said Franklin. “Rydell is a good fighter but he is in the way of my goal of winning the heavyweight world title. Април 13 will be my coming out party and I am very honored to have this opportunity on SHOWTIME.”
Booker (25-1, 12 Нокаута), from Detroit, Mich., is a former No.1-ranked U.S. amateur who was once a rising heavyweight prospect with a 22-0 рекорд. He suffered his lone defeat to former three-division world champion James Toney, who was coming off wins over Vassiliy Jirov and Evander Holyfield, в 2004. After serving a 12-year prison sentence, Booker has returned to the ring looking to get his life back on track and live up to his once promising expectations, registering three unanimous decision victories in 2018 under the tutelage of former world champion Jimmy Paul.
“It means a lot to have this opportunity to fight on SHOWTIME,” said the 38-year-old Booker, who sparred with heavyweight world champion Anthony Joshua in preparation for his September 2018 bout with Alexander Povetkin. “I’m ready to show my talents on a national stage so everyone will know who Rydell Booker is once again. I think Jermaine Franklin is a pretty good fighter but he has never fought anybody with my experience, knowledge in the ring or my ring savvy. I am going to teach him some new lessons on April 13. I have a bag full of goodies and tricks at my disposal that I will teach this young whipper snapper.”
Уолин (20-0, 13 Нокаута), който ще направи своя U.S. дебют, Оказа про в 2013 and has gradually risen in the rankings by recording 20 поредни победи. The 28-year-old southpaw, who originally played ice hockey and soccer in his native Sweden before finding the sweet science, won the Swedish Boxing Championship at 16-years-old, fought against Joshua twice as an amateur and was a member of the Swedish National Boxing Team. Currently ranked No. 5 by both the WBA and IBF, Wallin most recently won a 12-round unanimous decision over Adrian Granat in April 2018 and now has his sights set on becoming his country’s first Heavyweight Champion since Ingemar Johansson in 1960.
“I’m very excited about making my U.S. debut on SHOWTIME,” said Wallin, who has spent the last two years conducting training camp in New York with his trainer and former two-division champion Joey Gamache. “To be fighting on such a big card is very inspiring. I’ve been dreaming of this moment since I first started boxing at the age of 15. I will put on a good performance on April 13 and introduce myself to the American fans. I will be one step closer towards my goal of winning the heavyweight world title. Like I’ve said before, I’m a kid from a small town in Sweden and I’m proud of where I’m from and what I’ve achieved so far, but I feel like this is when all the fun starts.”
The 28-year-old Kisner (21-4-1, 6 Нокаута) has competed at both cruiserweight and heavyweight since turning professional in 2010 after a successful amateur career. Among Kisner’s numerous amateur recognitions, the Baltimore, Md. native was a three-time National Silver Gloves Champion, two-time Junior National Golden Gloves Champion and Ringside World Champion. He holds the distinction of being the youngest boxer in American history ever to win a Men’s National Title in the heavyweight division at 17 възраст. As a pro, three of Kisner’s four losses have come against opponents who boasted an undefeated record on fight night. В последния си двубой, Kisner defended his WBA U.S. cruiserweight title with a majority decision win over Scott Sigmon.
“I’ve dreamt my whole life of one day fighting on national television and now that the time is here, Отивам да се възползват максимално от него,” - каза Киснер. “Wallin is very good but I’m going to prove I’m one of the best heavyweights on the planet. I have proven my ability to beat the best in the world at both the amateur and professional level and I will do it again on April 13.”

Cameras will be embedded with Shields at the U.S. Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colo., and with Hammer in the town of Seefeld in the Austrian Alps as the undefeated rivals prepare for the most significant fight of their careers.
Here is what the press conference participants had to say Tuesday from Dream Hotel Downtown in Manhattan:
“This has been long overdue. I’m just glad that Hammer is here and the fight is set. She’s been at my fights before but I can’t wait to get inside the ring and show her I’m the real champion.
“I’ve traveled to many different countries and dethroned champions around the world. В края на деня, I’m coming to fight and I recognize that she’s a great champion. To be a champion for all those years shows that she’s a good fighter. But I also look at resumes, and her resume is not as good as mine.
“I’m not someone coming to lay down. I’m not afraid of her. You don’t win belts by talking. Трябва да се биеш. I said two years ago I want to fight Christina Hammer in my seventh fight. It would have been if it weren’t for her medical issue. But now we’re here and ready for April 13.
“Април 13 you’re going to see someone fold. Обещавам ви,, it will not be me. Make sure you all tune-in.
“I think for women’s boxing this is a true super fight that we’ve never gotten before. We’ve never had a fight like this in women’s boxing. It’s great to make this happen and us being from two parts of the world makes this fight even better.
“She’s not the tallest girl I’ve ever fought. I’m stronger than her and I know it. I got up from a knockdown and won. She can’t do that. I don’t believe she knows how to fight on the inside, but she better learn.
“I want to make her quit. I don’t want her to just know I’m a good fighter, I want her to know I’m great. I wish we could go 12 кръга, but I’ll be prepared for all 10 кръга.”
CHRISTINA HAMMER
“I’m very glad to be here and make this fight happen. I’m looking forward to April 13. I want to show the world who I am.
“This is a big risk to come from Germany to the U.S., but I believe the best should fight the best and I did what I had to so that this could happen. This fight can be a game changer for our sport.
“I will give everything to step out of the ring as a winner. I know Claressa Shields is also a great champion. She’s undefeated like me and that’s why people want to see the fight and that’s why we made it happen.
“I want to thank everyone who made this fight a reality and brought us to this stage. It’s huge for me to be here in New York and I am looking to win on April 13.
“This fight is the real deal. This is going to be a game changer for women’s boxing. I think we’re going to inspire a lot of female athletes who want to live their dream. It’s motivation for everyone.
“I’ve had the title for a long time. I always push myself. This is the fight I wanted to show everyone who is the best. I will be the undisputed champion.
“Shields is beatable. Hanna Gabriels caught her in the first round of their fight and I am taller and stronger than Gabriels. I want to finish the job if I get the chance.
“Всичко може да се случи в бокса. I’m prepared to go the distance. Knockout is the goal but most importantly, I want to win.”
DMITRIY SALITA, Президент на Salita Promotions
“I’m honored to bring to the fans the first super fight in women’s boxing history. A lot of questions surround this fight. Will this be a classic like Leonard vs. Hearns, where the gold medalist handles the experienced pro, or like Mosley vs. De La Hoya, where the boxing pro took the gold medalist down. This fight is going to be for all of the belts and this recognizes the true value and impact of this fight.
“Christina Hammer has been a world champion for over nine years and has won titles in two divisions. She’s charismatic and a superstar in Germany and Europe. As a champion that she is, she’s traveling to the other side of the world to prove that she’s the best.
“Claressa made the Olympic team when she was 17 възраст, winning our only boxing medal at the 2012 олимпийски игри. She’s the only boxer in U.S. history to win two Olympic gold medals in boxing. She’s had a very impressive pro career, beating world champions and top contenders in all her fights. She’s on her journey to be the best and this fight is a big step toward cementing herself as the GWOAT (greatest woman of all time).
“This is going to be a historic night of boxing. If you watch this fight live and in-person, you will want to hold onto your ticket as a memento.”
MARK TAFFET, Claressa Шийлдс’ мениджър
“The media support for this fight is outstanding. This is a very special time. This fight is one of the most significant fights I’ve worked on in my career, because of the place it will hold in history.
“Two years ago I met Claressa Shields and we discussed her turning pro. We made a list of dreams and I promised Claressa I would do everything in my power to fulfill every one of them. We’ve had a wonderful journey together. One of those dreams was to make this undisputed championship fight happen. We’re going to keep making dreams happen.”
TOM LOEFFLER, Christina Hammer’s Advisor
“Without the fighters wanting this fight, events like this wouldn’t happen. Christina Hammer wants this challenge and she wants to prove she’s the best middleweight champion out there.
“These two fighters can be an example for a lot of male boxers. These are two undefeated fighters in their prime putting it all on the line to show who is the best. You don’t see that very often these days.
“This is going to be a fun promotion. This is a fight that’s a real 50-50 борба. Claressa will be coming forward with her style and tenacity, going up against Christina’s experience. It’s for all the marbles”
СТИВЪН Еспиноза, президент Sports & Събитие Програмиране, Showtime Networks Inc.
“Let’s get one thing straight here. This isn’t just an important women’s fight. This isn’t just a high-quality women’s boxing match. This is a high-quality boxing match. This is an important fight. So certainly we have two very skilled women, we’re not going to ignore that fact. But this is one of the best fights that can be made in this sport. Two pound-for-pound boxers, най-добрият биете най-добрия. If you are not interested in this fight, then candidly, you are not a boxing fan. This is as good as this sport gets.
“We at SHOWTIME have a long history showcasing the best in women’s boxing and MMA. Names like Laila Ali, Кристи Мартин, Ронда Роузи, Miesha Tate, Gina Carano, Cris Cyborg.; those are all fighters who made their debuts and that became stars on SHOWTIME. This has been a long-time commitment.
“The first nationally televised women’s MMA event was on SHOWTIME. The first domestic televised MMA women’s main event was on SHOWTIME. The first women’s boxing match that was nationally televised was on SHOWTIME. The first women’s main event boxing bout was also on SHOWTIME, and that obviously was Claressa just a couple of years ago.
“So here on this stage you’ve got two of the most elite athletes in the sport. Not two of the elite women’s fighters in the sport, but two of the elite athletes within this sport. Two-time gold medalist, the only American to do that consecutively, and a two-belt world champion versus a longtime middleweight champion who has dominated this division for nearly a decade.
“This is one of the best fights that can be made in the entire sport. We have two of the elite athletes in boxing and they are deserving of having everything that comes with a marquee event on SHOWTIME, including our Emmy Award-winning All Access series.”
JIM WYNKOOP, Генерален мениджър, Boardwalk Hall
“We are so excited to have this great fight coming to Boardwalk Hall. It will be our first championship fight in several years and we can’t wait.
“There is a huge history of boxing at Boardwalk hall in Atlantic City and we look forward to writing another chapter on April 13.”

The 28-year-old Hammer (24-0, 11 Нокаута) owns the WBO belt, is the WBC Champion in Recess, and has dominated the women’s middleweight division for more than eight years. Shields and Hammer fought on the same card last June on SHOWTIME, with both fighters winning impressively to set up the first undisputed showdown in the women’s 160-pound division.
The winner of Shields vs. Hammer will join Terrence Crawford, Джърмейн Тейлър, Бърнард Хопкинс, Александър Усик и жените в полусредна категория Сесилия Браекхус като единствените бойци, обединили всичките четири големи световни титли във всяка категория тегло.

I want to be the greatest of all time and change the game forever for all women in sports, and April 13 is an important step on that road to history.”
“I have waited a long time for this moment,” said Hammer. “I am bigger, stronger and more experienced than Claressa Shields. I am undefeated and have been a champion for over eight years. I can’t wait to show the world that I am the best and undisputed middleweight champion of the world.”
“SHOWTIME Sports has a long history of featuring the best in women’s combat sports, whether it was with Laila Ali and Christy Martin in boxing, or Gina Carano, Крис Сайборг и Ронда Раузи в ММА,- каза Гордън Хол, Изпълнителен продуцент на ПОКАЗВАНЕ НА БОКС: СПЕЦИАЛНО ИЗДАНИЕ. „От скоро, тъй като 2016 we have featured today’s elite with Claressa Shields, Кристина Хамър, Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano appearing in an industry-leading 10 presentations of women’s boxing. Male or female, SHOWTIME has delivered the best fighters in their toughest matchups, and April 13 няма да се различава. We have two of the best pound-for-pound female fighters in the world facing each other with all four middleweight titles at stake. It doesn’t get much better than that.”
“The biggest women’s fight of all time is set to take place on April 13 at Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City,” said promoter Dmitriy Salita. “Claressa Shields and Christina Hammer, двете шампиони, both in their prime, are not only taking on the biggest challenge in their respective careers by meeting each other in the ring, but are breaking barriers for boxing and for women in sports. Април 13 is destined to be an electric and historic night of boxing live on SHOWTIME.”
“Shields vs. Hammer is the biggest and most important fight in women’s boxing history – two undefeated unified champions in their prime battling for the undisputed middleweight championship of the world,” said Shields’ manager Mark Taffet. “Christina Hammer is indeed a very good fighter and champion, but Claressa Shields is once-in-a-lifetime. The same intense focus and determination that got Claressa through life, earned her two Olympic gold medals, and won her five world titles in eight pro fights will carry her to victory on April 13.”
“We are very excited to bring world-class championship boxing back to Atlantic City’s Jim Whelan Boardwalk Hall,” said Matt Doherty, Executive Director of the Casino Reinvestment Development Authority. “This reinforces the CRDA’s commitment to attract world-class sporting events and increase visitors to our destination.”
Shields was the first American boxer in history – male or female – to win consecutive Olympic gold medals. Кремъка, Mich., native turned professional following the 2016 Olympics and became unified women’s super middleweight world champion in just her fourth professional fight. Shields moved down to middleweight for her June 22 headliner on SHOWTIME, defeating Hanna Gabriels to win the IBF and WBA titles and become a two-division champion in just her sixth professional contest. After Hammer was named WBC Champion in Recess due to her medical issue, Shields picked up the vacant WBC title last November with a unanimous decision over Hannah Rankin. She most recently defended all three titles in December against Femke Hermans.
Чук, of Dortmund, Германия, has been the dominant force in the women’s middleweight division since winning the WBO title in 2010. Hammer became unified champion in 2016 with a unanimous decision over WBC titlist Kali Reis and made four defenses as unified champion. In her eight years as champion, Hammer has lost just a handful of rounds across 16 за световната титла на битки. Чук, who also models professionally and was recently featured at Fashion Week in New York City, made her U.S. debut on June 22 after campaigning mostly in Germany since turning professional in 2009. After being forced to withdraw from the November unification due to the health issue, Hammer won a non-title fight via second round knockout last Saturday, Февруари 9 в Германия.
The undercard for the SHOWTIME BOXING: SPECIAL EDITION telecast will be announced in the coming weeks.

очакваше той да е от първия ден. Ще отвори много очи. Вярвам, че ние
поставете работата. Не виждам Адриен да излиза оттам без победа.
“Най-
ключът към победата е за Адриен просто да бъде себе си. Той трябва да прави това, което прави най-добре
без колебание. Той ще хвърли правилните удари в точното време.
“Pacquiao
все още хвърля комбинации, но те не влизат толкова бързо или толкова остро, колкото те
използван за. Той може да хвърли толкова удари, колкото иска да хвърли, но ако не са
приземяване, това не означава нищо.
“аз
мисля, че Адриен е по-бързият боец. Бързината компенсира скоростта, цял ден, всеки
ден. Всичко е в това да бъдеш достатъчно бърз, за да отпуснеш човек с бързината на ръката си.
По-различно е от това да хвърлиш куп бързи удари.”

A
resident of Las Vegas, Jack is preparing to fight in his adopted home city for
the 11татаtime as a pro on January 19. He will be making his third
appearance on SHOWTIME PPV, having won a light heavyweight crown against Nathan
Cleverly in August 2017 on the Mayweather vs. McGregor event.
Here is
what Jack, his trainer Lou Del Valle and Mayweather Promotions CEO Leonard
Ellerbe had to say Thursday:
JACK Badou
“I
feel young and like I’m still improving. I take care of my body every day. Age
won’t be a problem for me, it’ll be an advantage.
“I’m
a confident fighter. I don’t need to talk and brag about everything. I’m just
comfortable; вътре и извън ринга.
“I’m
battle-tested. I’ve been in there in tough fights. He hasn’t been tested like
that, so we’ll have to see what he’s capable of when the pressure is on.
“Marcus
Browne is an athletic and skilled fighter. But it’s a little different to fight
on the prospect and contender level versus on this world class level.
“One
of my biggest strengths in the ring is my ability to adjust. Моят треньор, Lou
Del Valle, has really helped in that regard. He’s been in there as a world
champion like me on the big stage. He knows so much about boxing.
“This
is nothing new to me. I’ve been on a lot of big cards, so this is a regular day
on the job. It’s exciting as always and I can’t wait to put on a good show.
“I
feel like it’s my duty to give back outside of the ring. With this platform
that I have, why wouldn’t I? We should use this platform for something deeper
than boxing.”
On the
Pacquiao vs. Broner SHOWTIME PPV main event:
“It’s
a really good fight. Pacquiao looked pretty good in his last fight, but Broner
is very talented. Всичко може да се случи в бокса, especially because Broner has
a good chin and can fight. He just has to stay focused.”
LOU DEL VALLE, Jack’s Trainer
“Camp
has been amazing. Every camp has just been better and better. He has improved
on his weaknesses each time we work together. It’s incredible that a guy who’s
35-years-old can keep performing the way he is and still be getting better.
“We
know that we have to be careful because Marcus is a good fighter. Everyone we
fight at this level is quality. We’re only fighting champions and guys with the
top pedigree. The better the fighter, the better we get.
“I
don’t think that Marcus Browne wants to go the distance with Badou Jack. If you
notice in previous fights, guys who fight Badou are not the same after. He
takes a lot out of them and I think it’s going to happen again. Marcus is going
to go for the early knockout, but we’re ready.
“The
experience gap is a big difference. I had only fought one 10-rounder when I
first fought for the title, but I still thought that I could beat him. The
experience that Virgil Hill had over me was really difficult to overcome and I
think you’ll see something similar play out in this fight.”
LEONARD Ellerbe, Главен изпълнителен директор на Мейуедър Промоции
“I
think that this is going to be a very competitive fight. You have two guys in
this fight that are very hungry. There are a lot of options in the light
heavyweight division, and it’s all about timing. This fight gives both guys a
chance to prove that they want to be the best and make a great statement.
“This
fight has a very good chance of stealing the show. I like the fact that Marcus
is very confident. If you’re in a big fight, you have to be. Badou is
even-keeled, and he comes with his workman-like approach to every fight.
“Experience
is everything in big fights. It’s a big deal when you’re under those lights.
Going the distance with top guys, and knowing how to break guys down, it all
plays a big role in fights like this.”

“Not
only will the fans witness a tremendous main event, they will get to enjoy
three action-packed match-ups that will add another level to the pay-per-view
portion of the card,” заяви Леонард Ellerbe, CEO of Mayweather
Promotions. “Both Jhack Tepora and Hugo Ruiz are looking to make a name
for themselves in the stacked featherweight division, while Rau’shee Warren and
Nordine Oubaali are in the prime of their careers and battling for the WBC
title. Мейуедър Промоции’ Badou Jack has made an exemplary statement for
his career inside and outside of the ring and is focused on further
strengthening his resume, while Marcus Browne is looking to showcase his talent
on boxing’s biggest stage.”
Крик (22-1-3, 13 Нокаута)
has fought twice at light heavyweight since relinquishing his super
middleweight world title to campaign at 175 паунда. The 35-year-old, who was
born in Stockholm, Швеция, represented his father’s Gambia in the 2008 Olympics
and now lives in Las Vegas. Jack won the super middleweight world title with a
majority decision against Anthony Dirrell in 2015 and successfully defended the
title three times before he relinquished the belt following a hard-fought
majority draw against James DeGale in one 2017’s best fights. In his first bout
at 175 паунда, Jack stopped Nathan Cleverly to pick up the WBA light
heavyweight title before fighting to a majority draw against Adonis Stevenson
in his last fight on May 19.
“I’m looking
forward to getting back onto another big stage to perform for my fans across
the globe and prove I am one of the best fighters in the world,” said
Jack. “I plan to show off my skills with a dominating performance on
January 19. I always want to fight the best, and he’s the best that’s
available right now. I’m always 100 percent ready and I’m going into this
fight stronger, faster and with more experience than ever before.”
The 28-year-old Browne
(22-0, 16 Нокаута) will be taking a step up to face an elite opponent when he battles
Jack. Член на 2012 U.S. Олимпийски отбор по бокс, Browne moved up the
contender ladder in the 175-pound division with brute force and power, scoring
three straight knockout victories against Thomas Williams, Jr., Sean Monaghan
and Francy Ntetu. Browne, who was born and raised in Staten Island, N.Y.,
scored a unanimous decision victory over Lenin Castillo in his last fight on
August 4.
“This is really an
honor and a privilege to have an opportunity to showcase my talents on a big
time pay-per-view card featuring Manny Pacquiao and Adrien Broner,” Browne
said. “Badou Jack is a championship-caliber fighter and one of the
toughest guys you can fight in the light heavyweight division. I’m ready for
the step up in competition and focused on being a household name in the sport
sooner rather than later.”
Гъсто населена бедняшка къща (16-2, 4 Нокаута) is
looking to return to the world championship ranks with a victory over Oubaali.
The 31-year-old became the first three-time Olympic boxer from the U.S. when he
qualified for consecutive Olympic teams in 2004, 2008 и 2012. His Olympic run
came to an end against Oubaali when he lost a narrow 19-18 decision in the
first round of the 2012 London Games. A southpaw from Cincinnati, Ohio, Warren
won the WBA Bantamweight World Championship with a majority decision over Juan
Carlos Payano in 2016 and lost the title the next year to Zhanat Zhakiyanov by
split-decision.
“This fight means
everything for me and it’s about to be the biggest moment of my career,”
Каза Уорън. “Not only am I fighting for the WBC belt, but it’s on
pay-per-view. When I first won the title it was like winning the gold medal at
the Olympics. After I lost the title, it made me much hungrier and I want to
get it back even more. I fought this guy in the Olympics, so I’m fighting for
revenge. This isn’t the Olympics. This is 12 rounds and I don’t think he’s
fought anybody like me. I have no choice but to put it all on the line on
January 19.”
The 32-year-old Oubaali
(14-0, 11 Нокаута), an unbeaten southpaw from Lens, Pas-de-Calais, Франция, has
knocked out his last five opponents. His most recent KO of Luis Melendez on
April 17 moved Oubaali up the ranks to position him for a world title shot.
Oubaali, who is the sixth of 18 children born in France to parents who are from
Morocco, twice represented France at the Olympics, qualifying in 2008 и 2012
when he defeated Warren.
“Many people are
waiting for this fight because it’s the second time we meet,” said Oubaali.”I
beat Rau’shee Warren at the 2012 London Games in a great battle. In the
meantime, Rau’shee captured a world championship and lost it. Точно сега, I’m
the WBC No. 1 ranked bantamweight fighter in the world. It will be a great
fight in Las Vegas on January 19 and I intend to beat Rau’shee again to become
the new WBC world champion.”
The 25-year-old Tepora
(22-0, 17 Нокаута) has steadily risen up the ranks since turning pro in 2012 and
most recently captured the WBA interim featherweight crown with a ninth-round
stoppage of Edivaldo Ortega in July. Representing Cebu City, Филипини,
Tepora enters his U.S. debut on January 19 with stoppage wins in 11 на неговата последна
12 конкурси.
“It
has always been a dream to fight in the United States,” said Tepora.
“I never dreamed that my first fight in the U.S. would be on a card with
Senator Manny Pacquiao vs. Ейдриън Broner. I look forward to a tremendous fight
on January 19 and defending my title versus former world champion Hugo Ruiz. As
you all know the best rivalry in boxing is Filipino vs. Мексикански. It’s going to
be a great fight.”
Fighting out of Los
Mochis, Синалоа, Мексико, Ruiz (38-4, 33 Нокаута) will make his featherweight debut
on January 19 after picking up two victories in 2018. The 30-year-old won a
super bantamweight world title with a first round stoppage of Julio Ceja in
2016, avenging his previous loss to Ceja in one of 2015’s most exciting fights.
He now seeks to position himself for a world title at 126 pounds with a victory
against Tepora.
“I
expect it to be a good fight because Tepora is undefeated and a good Filipino
champion,” - каза Руиз. “But I’m ready. I don’t think he can handle my
power. Отивам да го нокаутирам. I want to do my best to win the title. I’ve
been watching videos of him and I’ve been training hard. I’m really focused on
how to beat him. I’m still young, but I’ve got the experience to handle him in
this fight.”
Deerfield Beach, FL (Октомври 31, 2018)—Roberto Garcia wants to reclaim his WBC Silver Belt Championship and what better way than to match him up with England’s Liam Smith for the vacant title.
Garcia (41-4, 24 Нокаута), who has been in training since losing his Silver belt to Martin Murray in a 12-round unanimous decision on June 23, is ready to take on the durable Smith (26-2-1, 14 Нокаута) for the belt.
“I saw Smith’s fight against Jaime Munguia for the WBO Super Welterweight title on television,” said Garcia. “It was an all-out war and I feel that the two of us can bring the same type of fight and intensity into the ring for the title. Готов съм да тръгвам."
Smith went the distance in Las Vegas with Munguia and lost his interim WBO Super Welterweight title, which he had won in beating Liam Williams on April 8, 2017 and defended in a rematch with Williams on Nov. 11, 2017 in winning a majority decision.
“Garcia is ready to make the fight with Liam Smith and so is his promoter, Don King,” said manager Lee Holliday. “Both of these fighters are true warriors, so let’s get it on for the title.”
All it takes is a phone call from promoter Frank Warren to Don King and the fight will be on.

The game plan is going to go out the window, like Mike Tyson said.
“This is the moment in time for America to wake up and understand they have the baddest man on the planet right here,” Wilder passionately continues. “And you think I’m going to let this Gypsy come in here and mess up all those plans for me? I don’t think so.”
