Her er, hvad workout deltagerne havde at sige torsdag:
LAMONT PETERSON
“Jeg føler stor. Jeg er allerede tæt på vægten. Jeg er glad og spiser op til fem gange om dagen. Jeg føler mig stærk, og jeg er klar til denne kamp.
“Jeg er nødt til at se på dette som egentlig bare en anden stor kamp. Når du er på toppen, du forsøger ikke at lave for meget af hver kamp. Vi ved, hvad der er på spil. Jeg ved, at når jeg holde det simpelt, det er når jeg udfører bedst.
“Lige nu er min krop føles bedre end nogensinde. Jeg er komfortable med alt, der er gået videre i lejren, og jeg tror, ​​du kan se det i min krop.
“Jeg har altid trænet hårdt siden den første dag jeg kom her som barn. Det er blevet indpodet i mig, da en ung alder, og det er bar mig gennem hele min karriere.
“Alt hvad jeg gør, er for D.C.. Jeg forsøger at få så meget anerkendelse for dette område den bedste måde jeg kan. Det er, hvad vi alle stræber efter i denne gym. Dette er den største en, der har været på tidsplanen for et stykke tid, og jeg er klar til at bringe det hjem.
“Det bliver lettere og lettere jo flere mesterskabet kampe jeg er i. Jeg var i form til dem alle, men jeg helt sikkert sætte mere pres på mig selv, da jeg var ung. Jeg har forbedret hver gang, og nu føler jeg, at jeg er virkelig på det perfekte sted i min karriere.”
ANTHONY PETERSON
“Jeg er nødt til at afgive en redegørelse. Jeg føler aldrig komfortable med en beslutning. Jeg tror, ​​det er en god ting, fordi jeg er nødt til at være noget særligt under de lyse lys.
“Alle ved, jeg kan lide at gå til kroppen. Du ved, jeg har tænkt mig at gøre ham arbejde, så du kan se ud for mig til at bryde min modstander ned på Januar 20.
“Jeg har været sparring med en række erfarne krigere i det seneste år, og de har hjulpet mig ud, selv mens jeg ikke har haft en kamp. Ring rust er alle mentale. Det er op til dig at sætte arbejdet i.
“Jeg har ikke fået de kampe, som jeg ønsker, men jeg vil altid holde sig til mit spil og holde sig til mit håndværk. Jeg ved, hvis jeg holder ud, tingene vil arbejde ud for mig.
“Jeg ved, at jeg elsker denne sport. Jeg ved, at i sidste ende vil jeg være en verdensmester. Jeg tror på min fremtid, og jeg ser frem til store kampe.
“Det er inspirerende at se Lamont gøre hans ting og lykkes. Han kommer til at slå Errol Spence, selv hvis folk ikke tror det. Jeg tror, ​​han kommer til at tage sig af forretninger.”
BARRY HUNTER, Petersons Trainer
“Det har været en lang trummerum i lejren for disse fyre. Når jeg tænker tilbage på, hvor længe vi har været på denne rejse, Jeg er meget stolt af dem. De var 9 og 10 da de først kom ind i gymnastiksalen.
“Vi har ikke vægten monster til at beskæftige sig med at kæmpe på weltervægt. Lamont er i et fantastisk sted mentalt og fysisk. Jeg ser frem til en eksplosiv kamp.
“Når man ser på Spence-Brook kamp, tidligt på Brook havde en masse succes. Ned strækningen Errol pålagt hans vilje og brød Brook ned. Jeg kender Errol godt, og jeg har coachet ham. Han har en stærk vilje. Han er ikke stor i et område, men han er god i en masse områder. Dette er en anden slags fyr han vender. Heart er noget Lamont er langtfra kort på. Jeg tror, ​​dette kan starte taktisk, og derefter blive til en krig.
“Mit job er at gå derind med en del af en plan, men det er altid om justeringer for os. Uanset hvad Errol bringer til bordet, Vi finder ud af det og sætte alt i bevægelse.
“Denne sidste uge er en masse spil plan og mental forberedelse arbejde. En masse krigere ikke træne sindet. Du er nødt til at træne sindet i endnu højere grad end kroppen. Vi er nødt til at være klar til hver scenarie.
“Jeg tror, ​​at hvis Anthony går derind og gør sit job der er et par ledige titler på 140-pounds, og det er et spor for os. Vi ønsker at få en rem om livet, og vi vil stå over for nogen at få det.
“Lamont, sammen med Anthony, Gary Russell Jr., Jarrett Hurd og Gervonta Davis, har holdt nede boksning i dette område i lang tid. Det ville være enormt til at bringe denne titel hjem. Der er en masse unge Lamont Petersons på dette område, der ønsker at nå dette niveau. Det ville være et fyrtårn af lys, der skinner ned og vise disse mennesker vejen.”

ERROL Spence JR.
“Alle, der har set mig kæmpe før ved det ikke vil være en kedelig kamp. Selv om det er ensidig, det altid vil være actionmættet. Januar 20 kommer til at være en enorm kamp, ​​og jeg har tænkt mig at lægge på en stor præstation. Jeg planlægger at dominere.
“Defending min titel i Brooklyn vil være særligt. Jeg har familie i New York også så det betyder meget, at jeg vil være i stand til at forsvare på Barclays Centre. New York er en boksning byen, så de virkelig sætter pris på mestre og kender sporten.
“Jeg er spændt på at kæmpe en fyr som Lamont Peterson. Jeg er ikke kæmper en regulær no-name fighter. Han kommer til at bringe det bedste ud af mig, fordi han er en sand fighter. Det gør hele oplevelsen endnu bedre.
“Den øverste plet i sporten er virkelig på højkant nu, og jeg kommer til det. Jeg er ligeglad, hvem jeg er nødt til at stå over for, eller hvor, Jeg har tænkt mig at være den sidste mand stående. Det er derfor, vi alle kommer ind i denne sport. Jeg er meget sikker på mig selv.

“Dette fællesskab i Dallas er meget vigtigt for mig. Da jeg var
vokser op her var der ingen professionelle boksere herfra, at jeg kunne se til som rollemodel. Når du har ressourcer til at give tilbage, er det vigtigt at gøre det. Jeg elsker at være i gymnastiksalen og hjælpe de virkelig unge fyre og give dem noget at stræbe efter.”
DERRICK JAMES, Spence træner
“Errol ser rigtig godt ud i uddannelse. Han har stor fokus. Han er meget detalje orienteret og indtastet på at være den bedste version af sig selv. Bestemmelsen på hans ansigt lader mig vide, at han ønsker at forlade noget uforsøgt og sørge for alt går sin vej på kampen nat. Vi vinder kampen i gymnastiksalen ikke i ringen.
“Errol har at holde denne mentalitet går ind i denne kamp, ​​og ud over, og han ved, at. At vinde en titel er ikke, hvad han vil. Han ønsker at være ubestridte weltervægt mester. Han er meget målrettet, og jeg tror, ​​han vil nå dette mål. Han tager ikke et nej. Han kommer til at presse sig selv til det yderste og nå sine mål.
“Lamont Peterson er meget vittig og intelligent i ringen. Han er en hård fyr også. Han bringer, at mental udholdenhed, som du har brug for at blive en succes. Vi har at komme til denne kamp 100 procent og være fokuseret hele tiden. Hvis vi ikke gør, vi kan komme op kort.
“Jeg er nødt til at være den bedste udgave af mig selv for. Jeg prøver at få bedre og bedre hver kamp og hver dag i gymnastiksalen. Jeg ved, at jeg er nødt til at være på toppen af ​​alt, hvad der kunne ske. Barry Hunter er en hård, intelligent træner, der bringer en masse til bordet. Lamont har et fantastisk hold. Det er en fornøjelse og en ære at møde dem i ringen.”

Her er hvad de krigere havde at sige om deres januar 20 dueller og mere:
ROBERT PÅSKE (20-0, 14 KOS) – Gør tredje forsvar af IBF Letvægts verden titel
“Denne kamp kan definitivt sat en god tone for mig i 2018. Jeg har tænkt mig at være at gøre en erklæring med denne kamp. Mine sidste tre kampe, jeg har ikke fået en knockout. Jeg har tænkt mig at være at give mine fans og kæmpe fans et godt show.
“Jeg har tænkt mig at bruge min rækkevidde og længde og ødelægge denne fyr udefra. Alle min karriere har jeg kæmpet kortere fyre. Hver kort fyr kæmper ikke det samme. Men du får i ringen, og du føler ham ud og foretage justeringer.
“Der er ikke noget særligt, at jeg er nødt til at forberede sig til med Fortuna. Jeg tager hver kamp de samme. Hver fighter kæmper forskellige, så du komme derind, føler ham ud og foretage justeringer, som du går sammen. Jeg er ikke bekymret for ham at være en southpaw. Jeg har konfronteret masser af venstreorienterede i min karriere, og i de amatører. Det er ingen problemer overhovedet.
“Jeg tror det, der gør mig mere farlig bokser i denne kamp er at have den højde, jeg gør, og det stansning magt og hastighed og den tankegang samt. Min tankegang er, at jeg ikke har tænkt mig derind for at lege med ham. Jeg er klar til at ødelægge.
“Mine mål for 2018 er til at fange flere titler og få forening anfald. Vi havde et par mestre i vægtklassen, men det lader til, at ingen er villig til at kæmpe de andre mestre. Vi er villige til at gøre, hvad det tager, kæmpe den, der har titlerne. Vi er villige til at indfange alle de titler, når de andre gutter er villige til at melde sig til kampene.”
JAVIER FORTUNA (33-1-1, 23 KOS) – Tidligere Super Fjervægt verdensmester
“Min forberedelse til denne kamp går meget godt. Jeg har arbejdet i Den Dominikanske Republik, men jeg er kommet tilbage til Boston til at afslutte min uddannelse. Lige nu er vi ved 75% og lukker på 100%. Jeg vil være helt forberedt, når det er tid til at kæmpe. Min forberedelse og min strategi gør mig mere farlig fyr.
“Jeg ser dette som ingen anden kamp, ​​som jeg har haft før, fordi hver modstander er anderledes. Alle har deres egen niche på dette niveau, noget, der virker for dem. Hans niche er, at han er høj. Han bruger det til sin fordel. Men det er ikke noget, som jeg ikke kan overvinde. Jeg har kæmpet høje fyre før.
“Jeg foretrækker mine modstandere til at være højere. Det spiller ind, hvad jeg er i stand til at gøre. Jeg har aldrig haft et problem med højere modstandere. Abner Cotto (5-10) er en af ​​høje fyre, jeg kæmpede. Jeg kæmpede i Chicago og lægge på en stor præstation. (Fortuna scorede et 5th runde KO mod Cotto)
“Mit mål for 2018 er at bekæmpe alle de øverste elite krigere i min vægtklasse, og jeg prøver at blive nævnt som en af ​​de bedste i sporten. Jeg vil virkelig gerne vinde en anden verden titel i en anden vægtklasse. Det ville være den største øjeblik hidtil i min karriere at få en anden verden titel.”
MARCUS BROWNE (20-0, 15 KOS) – Top 10 Vurderet på 175 lbs. (WBC, WBO, WBA & IBF)
“Min modstander (Francy Ntetu, 17-1, 4 KOS) ligner en holdbar, hård fyr. Jeg ser denne kamp bliver meget spændende for fans, så længe det varer. Jeg så en lille smule af tape på ham. Jeg ved, han kommer altid i tip-top form, og jeg hører, at han er konsekvent i sin præstation i ringen. I just know I’m going to have to be sharp on Jan. 20.
“Det er altid en ære at kæmpe her i hjemmet og på Barclays Centre. Det er særligt at være i stand til at udføre foran disse fans, og jeg kan ikke vente med at sætte på en god præstation fører op til Spence vs. Peterson kamp.
“Denne kamp kunne sætte mig i den position, som jeg har brug for at være i at kæmpe for en verden titel. Jeg kan ikke mangle på nogen måde. Jeg er nødt til at komme ud stærk med en stor præstation fra start til slut og efterlader ingen tvivl derinde.
“For 2018, Jeg ønsker at blive en verdensmester. Jeg er fast besluttet på tomake det ske i år. That vision starts on Jan. 20 at Barclays Center against Francy Ntetu.”
FRANCY NTETU (17-1, 4 KOS) – Kæmpede David Benavidez på Barclays Centre i juni 2015
“I know Marcus Browne is probably taking me lightly and thinks he will simply go through me. Jeg håber, det er tilfældet, fordi det vil være et chok for ham, fans og hans team, når jeg tager hans plads i linje for en titel. Jeg ønsker at møde Eleider Alvarez i vores hjemby Montreal, efter at jeg får denne sejr.
“Min tidligere kamp på Barclays Center mod den nuværende WBC mester David Benavidez var naturligvis en meget dårlig beslutning af dommeren til at stoppe kampen, især når jeg var ved at vinde runden og Benavidez blev langsommere. Jeg var ved at blive stærkere, mens han var ved at blive svagere.
“Jeg har aldrig været skadet og aldrig blevet tabt i en kamp. Jeg vil have Marcus at udfordre sig selv og se, om han kan gøre noget ingen andre har. Jeg er spændt på at være i en kamp af denne størrelsesorden. Marcus, er det tid for os at give fans, hvad de ønsker!”
ADAM Kownacka (16-0, 13 KOS) – Oprindeligt fra Polen & kæmper ud af Brooklyn
“Denne kamp vil være endnu et skridt mod at blive en mester. Jeg ved, at jeg har tænkt mig at skulle arbejde meget hårdt og bevise, at jeg fortsætter med at bygge videre på min sejr mod Szpilka. Fra videoen har jeg set på Iago Kiladze (26-1, 18 KOS), Han bevæger sig meget, så jeg vil være behov for at afskære ringen. Uanset hvad han bringer til ringen, Jeg vil gerne have et svar til.
“Tre år i træk nu har jeg kæmpet i januar. Jeg elsker starter ud året stærk. Min kone og jeg startede faktisk en tradition for “Kownacki Family Run” på midnat on New Year’s Eve. Da jeg altid forbereder en kamp omkring nytår, vi var vi kunne lige så godt have det sjovt, mens vi arbejder. Så, vi har nogle venner komme ud og køre et par miles med os rundt i kvarteret i løbet af fyrværkeri. Det er sjovt og hjælper med at få mig klar.
“I sidste ende, Jeg glæder mig til at blive den bedste i den tunge afdeling. Det endelige mål for i år er at blive verdensmester. Men det allerførste skridt tager Iago Kiladze meget alvorligt. I can’t look past Januar 20 lige nu. Jeg har en hård modstander, som vil udfordre og gøre mig til en bedre fighter i det lange løb.”
Iago Kiladze, Tredje kamp siden flytte op til tunge division (2-0, 2 KOS)
“I feel great and my training has been terrific. Min træner er Freddie Roach nu. Jeg diskuteret med (IBF cruiservægt Champion) Murat Gassiev tre gange for nylig, som er fantastisk forberedelse til mig. I believe I can knockout Kownacki but if I have to go the distance I’m prepared for that. Uanset, Jeg vil være sejrrig. Jeg er føler, at jeg er den mere kvalificerede fighter og der vil vise i ringen.
“Dette er en stor kamp for min karriere og en fantastisk start for 2018. I know that if I win this fight I’ll be that much closer to a world title opportunity.
“Mit mål er at være en verdensmester i slutningen af 2018. I want to continue improving and learning under Freddie and with his guidance I’m confident of success.”

LFA caps the month of January with a pair of title fights in southern Louisiana. I main event, former LFA title challenger Brendan “All In” Allen faces top undefeated prospect Anthony “Fluffy” Hernandez for the vacant LFA middleweight title. I co-headliner, red-hot Ryan “Superman” Spann will lock horns with UFC vet Alex “The Spartan” Nicholson for the inaugural LFA light-heavyweight title. LFA 32 – Allen vs. Hernandez takes place Fredag, 26th januar at the Golden Nugget Hotel & Casino in Lake Charles, Louisiana.
The entire main card of all three of these events will be televised live and nationwide on AXS TV at 9 p.m. OG / 6 p.m. PT.
“I’m excited to kick off 2018 with three straight weeks of LFA action across the country”, Erklærede Soares. “Curtis Millender and Nick Barnes are coming off big wins in LFA headliners and will meet in the main event of LFA 30 in southern California on January 12th. The following week, we head to Arizona with top contenders Bobby Moffett and Thanh Le meeting for the interim featherweight title in the main event LFA 31. We finish the month with two title fights at LFA 32 in southern Louisiana. Brendan Allen faces Anthony Hernandez for the vacant middleweight title in the main event and Ryan Spann will take on Alex Nicholson for the inaugural light-heavyweight title in the co-headliner.”
Millender (13-3) returns home to the building where he fought and won his first seven fights. The Orange County juggernaut is looking to build off a perfect 2017 where he won three fights, including back-to-back LFA headliners. His most recent win came via highlight reel Head Kick KO in the main event of LFA 24. Millender will meet Barnes (12-2) in a long-awaited showdown between two of southern California’s finest. The welterweight stars started their careers in the southern California regional circuit, moved on to Bellator, and will finally meet in the main event of LFA 30. Barnes, like Millender, is coming off an impressive win in an LFA headliner.
Den vigtigste begivenhed af LFA 31 is a fight that casual fans and MMA purists alike are salivating over. It pits a rugged and accomplished BJJ black belt in Moffett (10-2) against one of the most dynamic strikers in all of MMA in Le (7-1) with the LFA interim featherweight title on the line. På papiret, this is a textbook grappler vs. striker bout at its highest form. Men, both men bring so much more to the table than what their respective martial arts backgrounds represent. Moffett, who trains out of The MMA Lab, has shown a willingness to throw down with anyone, while Le trains with BJJ wunderkind and UFC star Ryan Hall in northern Virginia.
LFA will conclude its busy month of January with a pair of title tilts in southern Louisiana. LFA standout and Louisiana native Allen (8-2) will get a second shot at LFA gold after going five rounds with current UFC star Eryk Anders for the inaugural LFA middleweight title in June. Allen quickly rebounded six weeks later with a submission win in the co-main event of LFA 18. He will face another highly-touted undefeated prospect for the title. This time it comes in the form of the northern California destroyer Hernandez (5-0). Manden er kendt som “Fluffy” has finished everyone he has faced inside the first round.
Co-main event af LFA 32 will crown the inaugural LFA light-heavyweight champion. Spann (12-5) is a former Legacy FC title challenger that will look to capture LFA gold in front of his home crowd. “Superman” is riding considerable momentum heading into this fight after dispatching a pair of top contenders in the first round of his last two bouts at LFA 23 and LFA 27. He will face Nicholson (10-4) who has been a man on fire since his four-fight run with the UFC ended in May. The Florida native has been a tour de force since then as he looks to make his way back. In the past two months, “The Spartan” has knocked out three quality opponents in grand total of 3 minutter og 28 sekunder.
I september 2016, Legacy FC and RFA officials announced that they would be merging to form the premier developmental organization in Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) begynder i januar 2017. Legacy FC and RFA have launched the careers of over 150 atleter, der har nået toppen af ​​MMA ved at konkurrere i UFC.

Her er, hvad pressemødet deltagerne havde at sige onsdag:
ERROL Spence JR.
“You’re going to see the same Errol Spence that you’re used to. I can’t look ahead because I know how dangerous Lamont Peterson is. I’ve been in training camps with him and I know what he can do.
“I’ve seen too many fighters look down the road and get beat before they get to the big fight. I have to be 100 percent focused and hungry. I’m fully dedicated to this fight.
“Lamont can push me to even greater levels. I feel like he is a better fighter than Kell Brook and has even more heart than Kell Brook and he can bring out the best in me.
“I think it’s going to start out as a boxing match, but as we go on, it’s going to be a dog fight. We both have big hearts. I’ve never known Lamont to turn down any fight. Not a lot of people wanted to fight me. The big names shied away from me but Lamont stood up and said he’d fight me. This is going to be a hard fight.
“I used to watch Lamont and his brother Anthony Peterson before I ever met them. I like their styles, the way they throw body punches and the fundamentals that they learned from Barry Hunter.
“I think I can be known as the best pound-for-pound in the sport, but I have to take it one fight at a time. I want to be the undisputed welterweight champion. That should be everyone’s ultimate goal – to be the best fighter in the sport. But first I have a big test ahead of me Januar 20.
“This is the business of the sport. I was a young guy when Lamont was giving me advice. Now we’ve gotten to this point. It really shows his longevity in the sport and how I’ve reached the ranks of being a top pro fighter.
“Sparring with Lamont Peterson was really great work. Det var en lærerig oplevelse. I was an amateur so I was going at a fast pace and Lamont was being patient, blocking and countering and picking his shots. He was fighting at a pro pace and I didn’t really understand it until I got farther into my career.
“You’ve seen me and Lamont fight. We’re not in boring fights. We have fan-friendly styles and you’re going to get a really good fight. We have the mentality to really go after it and give it our all to get this win.
“I want the best in this division to all fight each other. It’s time for everyone else to stand up and proclaim that they want to be great. That’s how we get this division to the peak. I don’t feel like waiting to fight the best. I want to prove myself.”
LAMONT PETERSON
“This is a world title fight and I’m thankful for that. I try not to make too much out of each fight. I just want to take it one fight at a time. I’ve done this for 13 years as a professional. All fights are the same. I’m going to go in there and take care of business.
“As a top fighter, you’re obligated to take what comes on the table. Regardless of who it is. It’s boxing. It’s a sport and we’re competitors. We want to go in there and compete to see who’s the best. We’re going to treat it like business like we always do.
“You already know when I fight, it’s a feeling out process to start, but in my head, Jeg er klar til at gå. It’s going to get rough in the trenches and we’ll see who wants it more.
“I knew six years ago when Errol was in my camp that we’d get to this point. I knew he would be a champion. For det meste, I’ve seen him improve and progress throughout the pro ranks and I believe he’s going to keep getting better.
“I don’t pay any attention to the outside noise. I respect everyone’s opinion. I just go out and train to do what I love to do. I do this because I love to box. I’m not here to get on a list. I truly love this sport.
“I can’t worry about people thinking that Errol is the next star in this sport. I believe that, but I can’t worry about it. It is up to me and my team to come up with the right type of strategy and execute it.
“I’m not too worried about figuring out his southpaw stance. I’ve been around long enough and encountered enough southpaws. I’m confident I’ll be able to handle it.
“The size may seem like an advantage for Errol, but it’s up to me and my team to figure out the best way to negate it. I know who I am. Jeg er et konkurrencemenneske. Regardless of everything, I’m going to come to win.”
DERRICK JAMES, Spence træner
“We have a game plan in place. We’ll try to perfect everything leading up to this one. We’re working on making Errol a more complete fighter every time out. He’ll be better than he was when you saw him against Brook.
“We’re looking for the perfect fight. It takes a great fighter to bring out the greatness in another great fighter. These guys are high caliber fighters and it’s about as good a matchup as you can have in the division.
“These are two guys with the mentality to go after it. But they also have technical skill. This is going to be an old school fight between guys with real skills.
“It’s one thing to do it, but it’s another to teach. I’ve really understood this sport since I became a trainer. Fighters are developed, not born. I’m going to keep working with these guys on the fundamentals so we can bring up the whole sport.”
BARRY HUNTER, Petersons Trainer
“When I look at Errol Spence, I instantly fell in love with him because he reminded me of Lamont so much. They both have that dog mentality. I’ve always known he was a special fighter.
“Lamont told me when he worked with Errol that he really liked the kid. He knew he would be a world champion. I had to remind myself that this is business. We have to fight our friends.
“These are the two guys who are ready to fight anybody. The fight on Januar 20 is going to be one to remember. It’s a fan-friendly fight.
“Errol Spence is the best fighter in the welterweight division. You have athletes that can fight and athletes who are fighters. Errol and Lamont are both. They have the skills and they have the ability to fight.
“To be the best in the world, you have to fight the best in the world. All the greats have done it. In order to get back to the glory days, we need to put the best against the best. I have confidence in Lamont Peterson against anybody.”
LOU Dibella, Formand for DiBella Entertainment
“There are very few fights you could make that are better in the welterweight division than this fight. It’s going to take place at the home of big-time boxing, here at Barclays Center in Brooklyn and live on SHOWTIME.
“Errol Spence is one of the most talked about fighters in the sport. Some think he could be the best fighter in the world. He’s consistently said he only wants to fight the best and on Januar 20 he will be fighting another champion and another great welterweight. Lamont Peterson never backs down from a challenge and we know he’ll be ready for this fight on Januar 20.
“This is a great event that continues the run of significant meaningful matchups on SHOWTIME. It’s been great quality programming. The fight cards have all been incredibly easy to promote because the fights have been so strong. You have to make fights with great fighters battling other great fighters. That’s what we need to energize our fans and our sport.”
STEPHEN ESPINOZA, Executive VP & General Manager, SHOWTIME Sports
“As we come to the end of 2017 we look back on what has been a really strong year. 25 nights of live boxing, 80 live boxing matches and 27 verden titel slagsmål. Not just title fights, but world title fights featuring top ranked challengers against top ranked champions.
“We’ve brought you the most watched fight of the year in Keith Thurman vs. Danny Garcia right here at Barclays Center on CBS. It was also the most watched primetime boxing match in nearly 20 år. But we will not be resting on our laurels.
“We’ll kick off next year with an incredibly strong card. Errol Spence has grown up on SHOWTIME and we’re proud of that. He made his debut on ShoBox and won his world title on SHOWTIME. He has knocked out nine straight opponents and in his last five fights his opponents have an impressive record of 141-7-3.
“Not a lot of fighters are rushing to fight Errol Spence. Lamont Peterson not only stepped up to the challenge, but he relinquished his welterweight title to take this fight. That’s the kind of fighter he is. He has one of the strongest resumes in the division and he’s fought the best guys in the sport.
“We’re thrilled to kick off the year with this matchup. It’s another great fight in the welterweight division, a division we’ve been paying a lot of attention to for years. We’ll see you on Januar 20.”
BRETT YORMARK, CEO of Brooklyn Sports & Underholdning
“We’re coming off of an incredible 2017 for BROOKLYN BOXING. It far exceeded my expectations. We’re very committed to boxing, not just now, but in the future. This fight kicks off what I think will be a great 2018 for BROOKLYN BOXING.
“Lamont was on the first ever PBC card at Barclays Center in 2015 and Brooklyn is happy to have you back. Errol was here in the spring of 2016 and we’ve had him as a fan several times, but we far prefer having you here in the ring.
“Barclays Center is known for hosting 50-50 fights and this is no different. We’re thrilled to be holding this event here in Brooklyn. We look forward to seeing you on Januar 20.”

Efterlad en kommentar
Tirsdag, November. 21 på O’Neill's Restaurant
In Maspeth, NY
NEW YORK (November 15, 2017)) – Hall of Famer Evander “Real Deal” Holyfield and former world welterweight champion Luis Collazo will be special guest speakers at Ring 8’s next monthly meeting,Tirsdag nat, November 21, på O’Neill's Restaurant (64-21 53rd Drive) in Maspeth, New York,
Because a large crowd is expected, only Ring 8 members will be allowed to attend this meeting, but membership may be obtained at the door for those interested in joining Ring 8.
“Evander Holyfield is one of the few living legends in our sport,” Ring 8 præsident Jack Hirsch sagde. “Så, you can imagine how thrilled we are to have him as a guest speaker. We had planned to present Holyfield with the Ring 8 Legends Award at our holiday banquet, but a lucrative business opportunity will prohibit him from being there that afternoon. I stedet, we will present him with that award at O’Neil’s. It says a lot about Evander that he adjusted his schedule to remain in New York to attend our meeting.
“Luis Collazo is a terrific fighter in his own right, having been a former world champion. His career seems to be on an upswing once again and we are anxious to hear about his future plans.”
Holyfield has retired as a boxer with an outstanding 44-10-2 (29 KOS), but this past year he has operated a New York City-based promotional company, Real Deal Boxing. A U.S. Olympian, Holyfield is the only unified world cruiserweight champion, as well as a four-time heavyweight champion of the world.
He had a 16-7-2 record in world title fights and won 19 af 30 fights with two draws against past or present world champions, defeating a Who’s Who list of all-time greats such as Dwight Muhammad Qawi, George Foreman, Larry Holmes, Riddick Bowe og Mike Tyson (to gange), blandt flere notabiliteter.
Born in Brooklyn and now a resident of Queens, Collazo (37-7. 20 KOS) captured the World Boxing Association (WBA) welterweight world title on April 2, 2005, winning a 12-round split decision over hometown favorite and defending champion Jose Antonio Rivera i Worcester, Massachusetts.
The 26-year-old Collazo, who has also defeated world champions Miguel Angel Gonzalez og Victor Ortiz, remains a world title contender having upset 21-1 Sammy Vasquez in his last action by way of a sixth-round knockout last February.

HOUSTON, Texas – Legacy Fighting Alliance (LFA) CEO Ed Soares announced today that the promotion will return to northern Texas next month at LFA 28 with a pair of talented veterans facing undefeated prospects at the top of the card.
I main event, Legacy FC standout Evan “The Butcher” Cutts faces top undefeated prospect Jaleel “The Realest” Willis in a welterweight war. I co-headliner, UFC vet Damon “The Leech” Jackson squares off with undefeated Kansan Thai “Landshark” Clark in a lightweight showdown. LFA 28 – Cutts vs. Willis takes place this Fredag, December 8th at The Bomb Factory in Dallas, Texas. Hele vigtigste kort vil blive tv-transmitteret direkte og landsdækkende på AXS TV på 9 p.m. OG / 6 p.m. PT.
“Evan Cutts is a long-time Legacy FC standout that has made a name for himself by taking out big name prospects,” Erklærede Soares. “He will make his LFA debut against Jaleel Willis, who is one of the top undefeated welterweight prospects in the sport. LFA started at The Bomb Factory in Dallas in January and returned in July. LFA 28 will continue our exciting history in Big D on Fredag, December 8th.”
Billetter til LFA 28 – Cutts vs. Willis are available for purchase NOW at TheBombFactory.com.
Cutts (8-3) is a longtime Legacy FC standout that will be making his LFA debut in front of his friends and family in the Dallas-Fort Worth (DFW) område. “The Butcher” has made a career out of cutting through the dreams of highly-touted prospects, while proving to be one of the most formidable ground specialists in the 170-pound division. I 2011, not long after his 20th birthday, the now 26-year-old Texan made his pro debut and quickly gained global recognition later that year. This happened when he faced Reagan Penn, the prodigious younger brother of UFC Hall of Fame member B.J. Penn. Cutts eagerly took the high-profile bout and made the most of his opportunity by defeating the jiu-jitsu wunderkind. Cutts later reached the quarter-finals of Bellator’s hit reality television show Fight Master. Now the Legacy FC standout is looking to hand another highly-touted prospect his first career loss in the main event of LFA 28.

Willis (8-0) makes his LFA debut to much fanfare. Widely-regarded as one of the top prospects in the world at 170-pounds, the Memphis native has done it all and made it look easy up to this point. The Bellator and WSOF vet has run roughshod over the competition throughout his three and a half year career. After winning a regional title in his hometown over the summer, Willis signed a multi-fight contract with LFA, the leading developmental organization for prospects looking to reach the UFC. His first assignment as an LFA fighter will be the perfect task for the hungry, young welterweight. The 25-year-old heads into enemy territory to face a man many consider a true “prospect killer” in the headlining bout of LFA 28. If successful, the man known as “The Realest” could cement his case as the realest threat to current LFA welterweight champion James Nakashima, while also pushing himself up the overall pound-for-pound prospect list.

Co-main event af LFA 28 will feature another showdown between a battle-tested veteran looking to regain past glory and an aspiring undefeated prospect looking for a marquee win. Three-time UFC vet and former Legacy FC featherweight champion Damon “The Leech” Jackson is moving back up to the lightweight division, which is the same weight class where he made his UFC debut on the main card of UFC 177. He will take on undefeated Bellator vet Thai “Landshark” Clark, who will be competing in his first live televised fight. The Kansas native is looking to take advantage of this opportunity by staying undefeated against his toughest test to date.
