Vazquez-Marquez IV Announced(ESPN.Com)

By Dan Rafael, ESPN.com  After three epic battles, Israel Vazquez and Rafael Marquez are already linked for eternity in boxing history. But they haven't had enough of each other, nor have the fans, so they're doing it one more time.

Their fourth fight, appropriately titled "Once and Four All" and scheduled for May 22 at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, was formally announced Thursday with expectations high for another memorable slugfest.

"Without a doubt, this is going to be a war just like the previous fights were," Vazquez said. "I'm really motivated to come back for this battle with Marquez and I know this fourth fight is going to be very significant to my career. I hope all the fans are as excited as I am for this fight and as excited as they were for the previous three, as the fourth will be no different than the others."

If that turns out to be true, we will be seeing another all-time classic.

Vazquez leads the intense series 2-1 against his Mexican countryman. Their three-fight rivalry consists of 25 fast, furious and bloody rounds.

"Israel Vazquez and I are destined to be intertwined together because of the legendary battles we have waged against each other, but I intend to close the book on our rivalry by dictating the final chapter -- and the fight -- on May 22 at Staples Center," said Marquez, the younger brother of lightweight champ Juan Manuel Marquez. "I have never wanted to win a fight so much in my life. I'm training to win. I'm fighting for my legacy."

In the Showtime-televised co-feature, Colombia's Yonnhy Perez (20-0, 14 KOs) will defend his bantamweight belt for the first time against a friend of his, Abner Mares (19-0, 12 KOs), a 2004 Mexican Olympian who lives in Southern California. Mares has to come through a tune-up bout on March 25.

The first three Vazquez-Marquez fights, which were fought consecutively, were each for the junior featherweight championship. The trilogy is widely considered one of the greatest in boxing history. The fourth chapter, a rarity in modern boxing, will be at featherweight.

"There has been no greater privilege for me than to have promoted [Diego] Corrales-[Jose Luis] Castillo I and the Vazquez-Marquez series," said Gary Shaw, Marquez's promoter. "At the end of the day, boxing and boxing fans are the winners. Rafael Marquez and Israel Vazquez are two of the greatest warriors ever. They are the stuff Hollywood movies are made from."

A former bantamweight champion, Marquez stopped Vazquez in the seventh round to win the 122-pound title in the first fight on March 3, 2007.

It was such a tremendous action fight, it looked like it would stand up as the fight of the year. But then came the rematch in which Vazquez bounced back to score a sixth-round knockout on Aug. 4, 2007. It trumped the first fight and claimed fight of the year honors from virtually every media outlet, including ESPN.com and Ring magazine.

As good as the first two fights were, the third one was even more stunning in it's non-stop, blistering action. In that March 1, 2008 fight, Vazquez rallied from a fourth-round knockdown to score a 12th-round knockdown that turned out to be the winning margin in a sensational split-decision victory as he regained the world title in the fight of the year.

After the amount of punishment both men took, a fourth fight seemed unthinkable. Both fighters needed long layoffs following the trilogy.

Marquez (38-5, 34 KOs), who turns 35 next week, was out for 14 months before returning for a third-round knockout of Jose Francisco Mendoza last May.

Vazquez (44-4, 33 KOs), 32, needed a 19-month layoff, during which he underwent three surgeries on his damaged retina. When he returned in October, he struggled to a ninth-round knockout of Angel Priolo.

Those fights came against lesser opponents after long layoffs. Now, they're back in the spotlight against their greatest rival. Showtime, which televised the first three bouts, is back for the fourth one and happy to be involved again with two fighters who have defined the network's boxing programming in recent years.

"Vazquez-Marquez IV is a fight we couldn't say no to," Showtime's Ken Hershman said. "The rivalry between these two warriors is rooted in the deep respect they have for one another. We knew from the first time they faced off against each other that their fights would deliver the highest quality boxing and fans should expect nothing less May 22. We are honored to have them back on Showtime. Fighters like Israel Vazquez and Rafael Marquez represent the best boxing has to offer: amazing competitors putting it all on the line in the name of sport."

With their careers nearing the end and a fourth fight easily the best financial option, the fight was put together in December, but had to wait until May because of the Staples Center's availability.

"May 22 is more than a fight, it is for pride, honor and respect of the boxing world and we are excited to be able to deliver the fourth fight following one of the best trilogies in boxing history," said Oscar De La Hoya, president of Golden Boy Promotions, Vazquez's co-promoter. "This type of fight reminds us of the great events from the 70's at the [Los Angeles] Olympic Auditorium and the Forum, featuring two great Mexican warriors who leave it all in the ring."

Frankie Espinoza, Jr.(Espinoza Boxing Club, Promoter): "It's never a bad fight(between Vazquez-Marquez)!"

[redcorner-blog]

Vazquez-Marquez Press Conference In Los Angeles, CA

[redcorner-blog]

Vazquez-Marquez: Attention Must Be Paid, Honor Must Be Acknowledged!

By: Ron Borges, The SweetScience.com They have broken each other's bodies three times but never each other's spirit. That is why word that a fourth Israel Vazquez-Rafael Marquez fight has been made for May 22 at the Staples Center in L.A. is good news for boxing and for SHOWTIME subscribers. It may be less so for the two fighters.  Under the leadership of Ken Hershman, SHOWTIME has become a significant low-budget challenger to HBO's dominance of big-time boxing. Although SHOWTIME lacks the budget to compete against HBO's checkbook when the cable giant decides it really wants a particular fight or fighter, Hershman has spent his money wisely lately and the result has been an ongoing series of top draw events like its Super 6 super middleweight tournament. Vazquz-Marquez IV only adds to that list.  Vazquez leads the series two wins to one but frankly he looked like the fighter who has come out the worse for wear judging by the length of their layoffs following the third fight on March 1, 2008 and the repercussions from it that were exhibited when each came back to boxing after more than a year layoff.  After winning what was supposed to be the rubber match by a one-point, split decision, Vazquez laid off 19 months and underwent three surgeries to repair a retina problem he could lay at the fists of Marquez. When he finally did return last Oct. 10 against the less-than-formidable Angel Priolo, Vazquez found a way to win, as he so often has, but it was far more of an uncomfortable struggle than it should have been.  Perhaps this was just a matter of knocking off a goodly amount of rust and getting comfortable again in the hot kitchen of a boxing ring, but somehow it looked like more than that. It looked like the Israel Vazquez (44-4, 33 KO) we had all grown to admire had been beaten down to the point where what remains will never be the same.  If that is the case, it will likely be become apparent on May 22 because Marquez's return on May 23, 2009 against Jose Francisco Mendoza went far more successfully. Although Mendoza will never be mistaken for a clone of someone like Vazquez, Marquez got rid of him in three rounds after a 14-month layoff, as he should have considering the gap in talent between the two of them. Although Marquez was stopped by Vazquez in their rematch and dropped in the final round of their third fight to give Vazquez his margin of victory, it always seemed he was less damaged than the man to whom he is now forever linked.  That is not to suggest Marquez (38-5, 34 KO) hasn't suffered significant and irreparable damage himself however. At 35, Marquez may have been close to the end of the line even under the best of circumstances but the way he lost the WBC super bantamweight title to Vazquez in their second and third fights left him far from in the best of circumstances.  That is one thing that will make this fight interesting to project because no one – including the fighters themselves – can be sure how much the other has left to give. Heart will never be the question but the body can take only so much. Same is true of battered eyes and broken noses. They often give out before the will of a great fighter does, conspiring against his best efforts without his full knowledge until it is too late.  Yet who in boxing will not be anticipating that night when the two of them square off once again in the tradition of boxing in its greatest days of the 1940s and 1950s, when such ongoing series of fights were far from unusual. Too often it's now one and done. Back then it was fight until we're both done.  That is part of the legacy these two men will leave behind when the boxing is over, a fact Marquez discussed when the fight was announced by Golden Boy Promotions and Gary Shaw, co-promoters of the event.  “Israel Vazquez and I are destined to be intertwined because of the legendary battles we have waged against each other,'' Marquez said in a prepared statement. “I intend to close the book on our rivalry by dictating the final chapter. I have never wanted to fight so much in my life. I'm fighting for my legacy.''  Actually, the two-time world champion's legacy is already well established. Whatever happens on May 22 can enhance it perhaps but it cannot diminish it even if both prove to be severely damaged goods. The same is true for Vazquez, who many thought would be forced to retire after the series of surgeries required to repair his torn retina.  Ever the realist, when Vazquez came back last October, even he admitted he couldn't be sure how he would feel in the ring. After it was over the 32-year-old Vazquez conceded he was not his old self but predicted things would get better. He has to hope so because even his best nights against Marquez have been hellish.  Not only was his eye severely injured as a result of what he endured but he suffered a badly shattered nose in the first fight as well, an injury that so affected his breathing he had to quit on his stool after the seventh round. Vazquez fought bravely that night and came back to win the next two but now he's a mystery as May 22 approaches. Regardless of those problems, one thing is not a mystery, and Vazquez knows it.  “Without a doubt this is going to be a war like the previous fights were,'' he said.  He's right about that despite the fact neither man is the same fighter he was when this all began, nor could be expected to be. Each has left far too much of themselves behind in those rings, pieces that cannot be glued back into place nor fully repaired.  Yet their hearts remain strong and so it is unlikely what surely seems to be their final meeting will go much differently than the previous three brutally bloody affairs. Attention must be paid and honor given to two men willing to give so much to entertain a blood thirsty public.  By May 22, it may prove that heart is all they have left. If so, it will still be a hell of a night.

Librado Andrade Visits Edison Miranda @ Ten Goose Gym!

Edison Miranda Workout Photo Gallery Photos: William Trillo

On Tuesday Pound4Pound paid a visit to the Ten Goose Gym to catch up with Edison Miranda as he prepares to take on IBF Super Middle Champ Lucian Bute in Montreal on April 17th.  On hand for the work out was Librado Andre who literally knows a thing or two about Bute. Miranda and Andrade hit it off immediately and they became instant friends. Along with the obvious discussion about Bute, both fighters spoke about the possibility of a meeting sometime in the future. That in itself would be a great match up but first both men will have to travel to Canada and defeat their upcoming foes Bute for Miranda and Andrade who will be facing the tough Eric Lucas.

Lucas, Trainer & Promoter Talk Andrade Fight

Interbox Teleconference Highlights Lucas, La Rouche & Beddard  Discuss Fight With Librado Andrade By Daniel Cloutier Éric Lucas: I know that it is a big challenge for me. Andrade is very strong physically and resilient more than most of the fighters in the world. I know that I am taking a risk, but Andrade is ranked 5th in the IBF. I have every thing to gain in fighting him. I know that I will need to be very energetic to win that bout, but I am confident. I really believe that I am superior to Librado technically. Trainer Stéphan Larouche: When I offered Andrade to Eric, he said yes without hesitation. He knows that he needs to accept to suffer during 12 rounds to beat Andrade, but he is ready fort that. We picked Andrade because of his ranking and his popularity in the world. Librado fought very high caliber fighters like Mikkel Kessler, Robert Stieglitz & Vitali Tsypko. If Eric wins, all the doors will be open for him on the international level. Jean Bédard, President of SportScene (the firm who managed InterBox), confirmed that he won the purse bid to get the IBF elimination between Sakio Bika, from Cameroun, and Jesse Brinkley, from U.S.A.. He has 90 days to confirm if this fight will be in Montreal, April 17th, when Lucian Bute will fight Edison Miranda, or in Quebec City May 28th. Bédard mentioned that a doubleheader Lucas-Andrade & Brinkley-Bika could have much interest for American TV.

Librado Andrade Vs. Eric Lucas - May 28th, 2010

Eric Lucas vs. Librado Andrade Friday, May 28th At The Pepsi Colisee In Quebec City Following his successful return to the ring last December, Éric Lucas (39-7-3 15 K.-O.) will be looking to add a 40th win to his outstanding pro record on Friday, May 28th in Quebec City. Considered a Quebec boxing hero, Lucas will be lacing up the gloves against the ever popular Librado Andrade (28-3-0, 21 KO). Andrade is no stranger to Quebec boxing fans, having fought 4 times in this province and showing a record of 2 wins (vs Otis Grant and Vitaliy Tsypko) and 2 losses (both to Lucian Bute, the last by sensational KO last November 28th at the same venue).  This bout will be a tough task for Eric, who has only fought once in the last 4 years plus. According to Eric, his ring experience and strong defensive skills are the keys to beating Librado. The former WBC champion has not let up on the intensity level in the gym and will continue his preparation in Florida with his trainer Stephan Larouche and stablemate Lucian Bute. “I am certain many will tell me I set the bar too high and that the challenge is too big, but this is exactly the type of fight I was looking for when I made my return to the ring. I felt the electric atmosphere of the Pepsi Colisee last November 28th when Lucian won, and Quebec City really touched me. Now I want to experience that euphoria for myself in that City” states Eric Lucas.

MAGIC Street Convention Quick Recap February 2010

MAGIC Convention 2010, Las Vegas, NV

Coverage By: Ruben Diaz

The Las Vegas Convention Center and the Mandalay Bay Hotel each served as hosts for this year's MAGIC Convention, a twice-a-year convention for fashion brands to display their ammunition for the coming months and a sneak peak into the latest trends that will hit shopping outlets in the coming months.  This year, BallerStatus.com dropped by MAGIC Street at Mandalay Bay to see what was on tap. On a crisp 60+ degree weather Thursday, the final day of MAGIC, there was still tons of traffic amongst foot patrollers and guests itching to catch a glimpse of what was in store for 2010.  Brands that were present included a list of hundreds of well-known brands as well as fresh up & coming upstart company's.  The names of those in attendance showcasing their merchandise ranged from Rocawear, Coogi, boxing line Red Corner Apparel(www.RedCornerApparel.com), Timberland, Akumu Ink(www.Akumuink.com), Ed Hardy, The Wild Ones, and many other fresh company's who were in town. There were two dj set-ups with 2 Technics 1200's and a Rane mixer who kept the music going as people walked and explored from booth to booth.  There was absolutely no sign that we were in an economic recession, as fans and purchasers filled the convention center with enthusiasm and buying power.

Amongst the trends showcased were less skinny jeans and shirts that exclaimed the death of the hipster movement.  However, not to be left out, there were quite a few hipsters in attendance rocking their skinny jeans and 80's-looking style...dancing away in unison to what the dj's played.  There was also some cutting edge merchandise being presented by company's such as www.KBethos.com; www.Manhattanportage.com, and www.Alphaindustries.com amongst many others.

As the 3-day event came to a close, the atmosphere was that of a confident one that consumers were getting back to their purchasing ways and the fashion industry was ready to cater to those consumers with markets ranging from emo/goth wear down to casual Dockers.  As booths closed up shop and packed their merchandise, MAGIC Convention kindly said "goodbye.  And see ya in August 2010" for which the next date is set for fashionistas and purchasers to lick their paws and delve into the magic that is, well, Magic.

Froch-Kessler Media Tour Hits UK!

WBC Super-Middleweight Champion Carl Froch does not care whether the old or the new Mikkel Kessler will show up on April 24 – he plans to knock out either one. That’s what “The Cobra” told a crowded press conference in the Robin Hood Suite at Nottingham Forest’s football stadium on Wednesday afternoon. “They say styles make fights and our fight will be an exciting one,” he stated. “I am curious to see whether it will be the old or the new Kessler in the ring. It does not matter to me, I am planning to knock him out anyway.”

The Viking Warrior was quick to respond: “Well, Carl, you don’t know the new Mikkel Kessler yet. You will be in for a very explosive surprise when we meet. You are a nice guy, but business is business, and I want to win my old WBC belt back. I had a very bad night in the office against Ward but champions bounce back even stronger. I did that once after the Calzaghe fight and I will do it again when we get in the ring on the 24th of April.”

The two superstars concluded their international media tour this afternoon after flying from Billund to England on Tuesday evening. Froch admitted he has changed his mind about the city of Herning following yesterdays press conference at the MCH. “We were impressed by the venue,” he said. “The people have been great. It is a nice town and a superb arena. There are also two nice pubs out there so my fans will like it in Herning.”

Mick Hennessy was also impressed by Georg Soerensen and the hospitality at MCH. “It was a great trip and we were very pleased about everything. They treated us very well. It is the best possible venue for the fight and it can easily be reached for the Froch Army of Fans. Carl will be getting a lot of support on April 24. To me Froch vs. Kessler is a definite fight of the year candidate.”

Chris Meyer, General Manager of Team Sauerland, is convinced that Mikkel Kessler will bounce back stronger than ever before. “Carl is a good fighter but there is no way he can beat Mikkel with the Danish fans behind him,” he said. “It will be too much for Carl. Mikkel is stronger and the better fighter. He has a great coach, Jimmy Montoya, and they will come up with a brilliant plan to kill the Cobra.”

Montoya stated that Mikkel was getting better and better every day. “Training camp has been going very well,” he said. “Mikkel keeps telling me that he not only wants to become world champion again but win the whole tournament. That is exactly how he needs to look at things. He will definitely defeat Froch.” The upcoming Group Stage 2 bout of the Super Six World Boxing Classic will be shown on Saturday, April 24 on SHOWTIME® (9 p.m. ET/PT, same-day tape delay).

Froch-Kessler Heating Up!!!

Mikkel Kessler (42-2, 32 KOs) and WBC super middleweight champion Carl Froch (26-0, 20 KOs) kicked off an international media tour on Wednesday morning to discuss their upcoming Group Stage 2 bout in the Super Six World Boxing Classic on Saturday, April 24, on SHOWTIME® (9 p.m. ET/PT, same-day tape delay). In front of a packed press conference in Herning, Denmark, the Viking Warrior will be counting on the support of his home fans as he sets his sights on the first three points in the Super Six World Boxing Classic. “Never in my life have I lost a fight in Denmark,” he said. “My home fans give me the extra five percent I need to defeat Froch. I will knock him out. It will be the real Viking Warrior in the ring. A victory is all that matters on April 24.”

While Kessler can be certain to have a boisterous crowd behind him, Froch will also be supported by thousands of British fans who are expected to travel into the country to support their hero. “I will be bringing the Froch army of fans,” the undefeated 32-year-old said. “I have been received very well here, everything has been organized perfectly, so my fans will have a good time in Herning. It will be two proud warriors inside the ring and I will again defend my title in my opponent’s backyard.”

Promoter Kalle Sauerland has no doubts that Kessler will take care of business. “Look, Mikkel, they did not dare to bring their belt because they are scared of losing it here in Denmark,” Sauerland said. “The fight against Froch will be an exciting one, there is so much at stake. Their spectacular boxing styles will make April 24 a night to remember.” Sauerland presented Kessler a cardboard with a picture of Froch and his prediction to “decapitate Kessler”. “It will get a special place in my gym,” Kessler said. “It will further raise my motivation. Froch can say what he wants, I dont think he will decapitate me, it will be the other way round!”

Froch's promoter Mick Hennessy believes his fighter got what it takes to win – the fight and the tournament. “Carl will come here with his army of fans and beat Mikkel Kessler,” Hennessy predicted. “I think this is the most exciting clash of the entire group stages. It should be a real treat for the fans.” Georg Soerensen, CEO of MCH Herning, was proud to host the biggest fight in Danish history. “We are thrilled to stage the historic first-ever Super Six fight on Danish soil,” he said. “It is a big honor and we really look forward to April 24.”

Tickets will go on sale on Monday, February 22, at billetnet.dk.
