In a second and the telecast will begin at 10 p.
m.
Eastern time that’d be 7 p.
m, pacific time and feature.
As i said, a stacked lineup of rising and accomplished stars in a high stakes match up in the co-main event, you’re going to see hard-hitting, isaiah, pitbull crews, step in to take on fellow mexican veteran contender eduardo ramirez.
It’S a 12-rounder! That’S for the wbc lightweight title by the way uh an eliminator match in the co-main event.
Um action will also see the return of popular three division champion abner mraz in his first action in three years as he battles former title challenger, miguel flores in a 10-round super featherweight attraction plus exciting, rising star, jose valenzuela, jules former world champion jezreel corrales in a 10-Round lightweight pay-per-view opener uh.
Let’S have a quick little read here.
There’S a there’s! A tom brown president of tgb promotion says the fight fans in los angeles room for an action-packed labor day weekend as southern california’s mexican-american star, andy ruiz jr returns in his toughest test.
Since his title run against the always dangerous cuban southpaw louise ortiz, this is a perfect clash for the electric atmosphere of cryptocom arena and it’s sure to deliver fireworks.
The fox sports pay-per-view sorry premier, boxing champions pay-per-view main event, will prove once again that high stakes, heavyweight action is a must-see event, adding in a slew of intriguing undercard matchups, and this will be a night that will keep fans glued to their seats.
From start to finish boy, did he not miss one single brand name in that quote all right? So, let’s move on then to um sunderland england little uh story, uh stadium of light.
It’S called where patrick tom, sorry, thomas patrick ward, will be ready to shake off his contender status and fight for a world title.
He hopes this year.
The featherweight returns to action on july 17th at the stadium of light in sunderland, headlining of phil jeffries promotion.
Looking to preserve his status as the wba’s number one ranked fighter ward says he was in cruise control when defeating alexis cabor over 10 rounds at the poke ball and throw down in march and has repeated that he is ready for world title opportunities.
The 28 year old unbeaten in 33, fights believes he will be a world champion for a long time and says this is outrageous that there is a log jam at the top of the wba featherweight division delaying his chance.
He said i am ranked number world not in the world, i’m ranked number one by the wba and hopefully the right things happen that and that’s me being made mandatory and then getting the title shot.
I was the number one contender with the wbo, a super bantamweight for a period, but the fight with emmanuel navrati never happened.
I always seem to be there if there abouts and never get the opportunity, but hopefully that changes soon and i believe when i become world champion, i will reign for a long time.
I look at other fighters who have had that opportunity and they’ve not been good enough by the way england’s lee wood, one of our favorites out of nottingham, a target for another pro balance by the way uh against uh jazz dickens is the wba regular champion, while Leo santa cruz holds that super world title ward, the leading contender in the division can’t understand why he’s still waiting for this title shot leo santa cruz hasn’t defended his title since 2018 and he’s still champion he said it’s outrageous.
You’Ve got people like me waiting for an opportunity; it doesn’t make any sense, but whether it be santa cruz or lee, wood both are good fighters.
I just believe that my chance will come.
I’Ve been in cruise control in my last few fights, but when i’m facing these top fighters, then you’ll see the very best of me right now.
Let’S flip over to another big night of boxing courtesy, our boys over at the boxer they’re, putting on an event called boxer, that’s b-o-x-x-e-r, boxer, breakthrough explosive was the word adam azeem used at today’s media scrum when asked to describe what fans could expect from him at The country skydome arena – that’s taking place this saturday night tomorrow, night june 25th, that is shown live in the uk on sky sports people.
He said people like entertainment and i bring entertainment you’re going to see more explosive, knockouts you’re going to see more tricks than you haven’t seen before on saturday night.
You said this is definitely a great step up for me, and i’ve been training really hard for this fight.
I’M ready to go on saturday, and hopefully the same outcome is my last four fights his co-headliner sam eggington is also looking for a showcase performance said what he says, whether my opponent’s going to box like mayweather or fight like tyson.
I’Ve done everything i can in the gym to make sure i get the win this cross.
This can be a fight to push me onto very big things.
He said.
Other quotes include a quick little quote from one of my favorites kara starting stall on making uh her professional debut.
I can’t wait to get going now day in day out.
I get in the ring.
I get punched.
I punch people uh, so i’m use that kind of stuff.
It’S little things outside of that.
I need to get used to now like fighting in front of a big hometown audience.
That’S good.
I never really done that before she said uh lauren price on karis.
She says her uh advice is relax and enjoy it.
I know she’s trained 100 she’s, absolutely flying washed her on the pads this week and it’s the best i’ve ever seen her.
I believe they’re both team gb members at during the olympics, uh dylan chima – had this to say: i’ve got to be on my game.
I’Ve got to be sharp, i’m i’m strong, so that’s all going to show in the ring on saturday night, but i can’t afford to drop around.
I’Ve got to be on my game for the duration of the fight.
Well, that is certainly an understatement for any competitor.
At any level in any sport, cory, gibbs had this to say, you’re going to see a lot more of me in this fight, i’m a lot better when i’m relaxed – and i was under pressure to win right away in the boxer series now you’re going to see A more relaxed, corey, gibbs and a better corey gibbs, all my skills, all my power you’ll be able to see a lot more and i can’t wait.
Scott forrest concludes our show today says: cruiserweight is a big division right now, especially domestically.
My debut was just to feel the difference between fighting amateur and professional.
My debut opponent had only been stopped four times and i fought a lot of big heavyweights, but i got the into my groove and made my fight.
