It\u2019s been a great start to the year already for SHOWTIME Boxing. It\u2019s been a great start of the year for Stephen Espinoza who was recently promoted deservingly to President of sports and events programming for SHOWTIME Networks.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Stephen\u2019s been instrumental in Deontay Wilder having a home at SHOWTIME and was instrumental in creating this tremendous tripleheader for the fans on March 3rd so it\u2019s my pleasure to introduce Stephen Espinoza.<\/p>\n<p>Stephen Espinoza<\/p>\n<p>Thanks very much, Lou, and as good as a main event this is and we\u2019re very excited about it, the other two fights that are on the card are high-quality fights as well.<\/p>\n<p>These are three fights which could have been a main event in their own right. Andre Dirrell and Jos\u00e9 Uzcategui, this is a rematch of a really good fight that was a little bit overshadowed by the controversial unfortunate event that happened afterward. The fight itself was a Fight of the Year candidate.<\/p>\n<p>Jermall Charlo and Hugo Centeno are two young guys in the primes of their career with only one loss between them, an interim title fight as well, and then the big one, Wilder vs. Ortiz. When we announced our first half of the year schedule, which was a loaded schedule with 11 different events and 13 world title fights, I think this fight Wilder vs. Ortiz was really the marquee matchup. Not just because of the heavyweights but because it\u2019s such a well-matched fight.<\/p>\n<p>Deontay is making his seventh and arguably his most-difficult defense of his WBC heavyweight title. It is the closest betting odds for a Wilder fight since he won the title in January of 2015, and deservedly so. Luis Ortiz is probably the division\u2019s most-avoided fighter, a great power-puncher, a lefty, very skilled boxer and a matchup of two of the four top heavyweights in the world.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, in March we will be featuring all four of the top four heavyweights in the world and all four of the major world titles: Wilder\/Ortiz on March 3, bookended later by Joshua vs. Parker on March 31.<\/p>\n<p>Between those two fights we will be featuring all four of the best heavyweights in the world, all four world championships and a combined record among those four fighters of 111 wins, 0 losses, 100 knockouts.<\/p>\n<p>Between the two of these guys in our main event by itself, we have 67 total fights with 62 of those ending in knockout. We have a thrilling schedule for the first half of the year, a great slate of two heavyweight title fights, and I think the marquee matchup of the first half of the year, the fight everyone\u2019s looking forward to, Wilder vs. Ortiz.<\/p>\n<p>L. DiBella<\/p>\n<p>Thank you so much, Stephen Espinoza really has put together an incredible slate. It\u2019s already been announced and it\u2019s unprecedented to have this type of schedule out there this far in advance with fans getting a consistent product like this.<\/p>\n<p>Not to belabor a point but I read a comment on my Twitter feed from a fan saying that this fight card would be pay-per-view worthy. Well, I guess that that\u2019s a compliment but I think it\u2019s a bigger compliment to the people at SHOWTIME that this is a live tripleheader on premium cable.<\/p>\n<p>This is an opportunity for people to subscribe to the best premium cable network for boxing out there if they don\u2019t do so already and to get a card featuring a a highly competitive terrific heavyweight title matchup with two other great fights.<\/p>\n<p>So we\u2019re going to move on to the fighters now but this really is a special night of boxing on March 3. Everyone who can get to Brooklyn should be at Barclays Center for it but if not, you have the opportunity to see this on SHOWTIME.<\/p>\n<p>Luis \u201cKing Kong\u201d Ortiz, 28 and 0, 24 KOs from out of Miami, Florida now by way of Camaguey, Cuba. He won numerous titles, every Latin-related title you can win on his way up the world rankings. He was 343 and 19 as an amateur, 343 and 19. That makes him one of the greatest amateur heavyweight fighters in the history of boxing.<\/p>\n<p>He\u2019s a big guy, he\u2019s a left-hander, he\u2019s a power-punching left-hander and through the goodness and the desire of the heavyweight champion of the world Deontay Wilder to prove himself to be the best, Luis Ortiz &#8211; \u201cKing Kong\u201d Ortiz &#8211; will get a chance on March 3rd to change the lives not only of his family but of his grandkids and generations to come, an opportunity to dethrone the heavyweight champion if he can do it.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s another opportunity after some other possible opportunities that fell through, he\u2019s getting this chance yet again so he\u2019s coming into this fight with these stellar credentials with all the stability and with nothing to lose. His manager Jay Jimenez will do the translating for him &#8211; but believe me I\u2019m sure that King Kong has a lot to say, Luis \u201cKing Kong\u201d Ortiz. Jay?<\/p>\n<p>Luis Ortiz<\/p>\n<p>As far as the preparation, I\u2019m ready to go. We\u2019re ready to go this week if we have to. As far as for the fight and for Wilder, I have no comments for him.<\/p>\n<p>L. DiBella<\/p>\n<p>All right, well then I\u2019ll then turn to the heavyweight champion of the world. When he knocked-out Bermane Stiverne in their rematch on November 4th, it allows him to now say that he\u2019s knocked-out every man he\u2019s faced as a professional.<\/p>\n<p>This is a step toward proving that he\u2019s the best and a step toward eventual unification of the heavyweight titles if he can get past his toughest test to date so Deontay, would you like to say a couple of words?<\/p>\n<p>Deontay Wilder<\/p>\n<p>Good evening, everyone. Hope everybody\u2019s having a wonderful day and a beautiful day as beautiful as mine. I just had a scrumptious meal with some sweet tea, I\u2019m feeling good. I\u2019m fixing to get ready to go spar and get this past week over and March 3 I\u2019m coming to whip Luis Ortiz\u2019 ass but I\u2019m excited for this fight. I am so excited for this fight.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m glad that it\u2019s finally here, one more week, next weekend, all the talking, all the anticipation for this fight, all the hype, all of that\u2019s fixing to come into play next week and I\u2019m looking forward to it. I\u2019m looking forward to being in one of my biggest, one of my toughest fights to date and we\u2019re going to see what happens.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m feeling great, camp has been going great. This is what I\u2019ve been waiting on to prove to the world what I\u2019ve been saying all along, that I am the best heavyweight champion in this era. I am the best heavyweight champion, period, and I\u2019m willing to prove that not only to Luis Ortiz but to the world.<\/p>\n<p>I think Luis Ortiz is a great fighter and I think this is the biggest fight that could be made at this point in time in boxing. He\u2019s been waiting a very long time and here I come, Luiz Ortiz called me his angel because I came along, I took him under my wings, I\u2019ve blessed him not only once but twice and I can\u2019t keep saying that enough.<\/p>\n<p>I want people to get it in their mind that I could have ran from this fight. I could have chosen any opponent that I wanted to to fight on March the 3, especially when all the other stuff went about, I could have easily gone somewhere else but no, I\u2019m adamant about what I say, I\u2019m confident about what I\u2019m going to do and I\u2019m ready to prove it to the world. So I got the perfect opponent, it\u2019s the perfect time, it\u2019s the perfect place.<\/p>\n<p>Somebody\u2019s \u20180\u2019, got to go and you all already know what I come to do. I talk my talk to walk my walk. It\u2019s going to be up to Luis Ortiz to prove me wrong. He\u2019s got an opportunity to be the first Cuban heavyweight champion of the world. It sounds good but he got a big task in front of him. He dealing with a monster. He dealing with a guy with a killer instinct.<\/p>\n<p>He dealing with a guy that ain\u2019t afraid of not one human being on Earth, especially when you get in that jungle and I am the king of the jungle. I am the lion of the jungle. He\u2019s never faced nobody with the pedigree with the killer instinct that I have inside of me. He\u2019s never faced a guy that wanted to knock his head off so clean off his shoulders.<\/p>\n<p>He never been in there with a guy that won\u2019t back down, won\u2019t budge. I can\u2019t wait. I hope he\u2019s sleeping good, too. I hope you\u2019re getting all your minerals, your protein and you\u2019re taking your medicine faithfully because March the 3rd it\u2019s going to be a real fight. I\u2019d like to welcome you to the real sport of boxing.<\/p>\n<p>Q<\/p>\n<p>How hard is it for you to think and to focus so hard on this fight knowing that you\u2019ve had three other fights to my count that have fallen-out because of bad drug tests. Do you allow yourself to think of that as a possibility?<\/p>\n<p>D. Wilder<\/p>\n<p>Yes, that could happen, that\u2019s a possibility, we always say, once a cheat, always a cheat and that will always carry with him but that\u2019s going to be up to Luis Ortiz. I think Luis Ortiz is a smart guy and I think he\u2019s going to do the right thing up to this point.<\/p>\n<p>If he doesn\u2019t, like I said, it\u2019ll be shame on him to put people through so much pain and it\u2019s ridiculous that we have to be talking about this still at this point in time with drugs and cheating and stuff but I think he\u2019s going to do the right thing and so with that being said, I\u2019m not worried about it.<\/p>\n<p>I have confidence in him that he\u2019s going to turn-up clean and he\u2019s going to give a great performance on the night of that fight and we\u2019re all going to be winners at the end of the night.<\/p>\n<p>Q<\/p>\n<p>How hard is it to have the birth of a child take place so close to the fight?<\/p>\n<p>D. Wilder<\/p>\n<p>Well, boxing comes first. This is my life. This is my career that we\u2019re talking about. This is how I can afford to feed my family so nothing come above this so when coming into that involvement, I made it perfectly clear that boxing was first and boxing was last. Now we have some in the middle that we can fill but then we can do so.<\/p>\n<p>They were very cooperative of what I requested and what I wanted to happen and they fulfilled their obligations with me and I did so with them. My focus is solid on Luis Ortiz. I don\u2019t want people to mistake me doing reality show for not caring about this fight.<\/p>\n<p>When Deontay Wilder\u2019s mind is set on something, when he\u2019s focused, nothing is going to stop me.<\/p>\n<p>Q<\/p>\n<p>Deontay how do you prepare for fights mentally and how do you think that helps or hurts you?<\/p>\n<p>D. Wilder<\/p>\n<p>I think boxing for me is 90% mental during the duress or even 96 percent. it\u2019s a majority mental for me more than physical. That\u2019s why I\u2019m able to speak and say what I\u2019m going to do and actually deliver that because I believe in myself, I believe what I say, I believe in what I say I\u2019m going to do.<\/p>\n<p>I don\u2019t play around. That\u2019s the thing about it and it all comes from my mental standpoint, my mental game, mentally, emotionally, physically I am ready for this fight.<\/p>\n<p>Like I said, I fought this fight 100 times and the thing about it &#8211; about this fight &#8211; out of the 100 times I done fought this fight, most days were similar but the only thing that was different out of the 100 times I done fought this fight, the ending it ended in different ways, different knockouts because I will knock him out.<\/p>\n<p>It ain\u2019t going to be a matter of time. A win is going to be a matter of time or when it lands and the fashion I do it in so mental plays a big part in what I do. That\u2019s why I\u2019m able to boldly speak how I speak because a lot of guys they aren\u2019t confident in themselves.<\/p>\n<p>They won\u2019t dare speak how I speak, they won\u2019t dare to do it because they don\u2019t know what the outcome\u2019s going to be on that night of that fight but with me, I know what it\u2019s going to be because it\u2019s up to me.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not up to the crowd, it\u2019s not up to my trainers, it\u2019s not up to nobody but myself in that ring and we all know what when Deontay Wilder get under those lights, those cameras, I perform my best. I\u2019m an entertainer so I can\u2019t wait.<\/p>\n<p>Q<\/p>\n<p>Luis how do you feel when people say they want to see Joshua vs. Wilder?<\/p>\n<p>L. Ortiz<\/p>\n<p>I have no feelings there, that fight isn\u2019t going to happen. That fight is not going to happen.<\/p>\n<p>Everybody that talks as much as Deontay loses. Brandon Rios just the other day was talking and talking and talking and talking against Danny Garcia and look what happened. None of this talk bothers me. He can talk all he wants. Deontay is trying to convince himself.<\/p>\n<p>Q<\/p>\n<p>Deontay you said that it feels like I\u2019m better off not being in this sport as being in it, I don\u2019t understand it when it comes to all the failed drug tests your opponents have had in the past couple of fights. Do you still feel that way?<\/p>\n<p>D. Wilder<\/p>\n<p>So sometimes I still feel that way, but also I have to face reality as well too that these guys are going to do it. They\u2019re going to do it and these organization makes it worse because they allow them to do it because they bring them back in without suffering any really no type of consequences behind their actions.<\/p>\n<p>Makes you wonder what they doing when they taking these PEDs. Everybody wants to come-up, I understand.<\/p>\n<p>Everybody want to feed their family; I understand but how can you say you a man when you take PEDs? When you cheat, when you try to do things to give you that advantage to try to get on top of the game, it doesn\u2019t work that way.<\/p>\n<p>So many champions have done it as well. We don\u2019t know how many times these guys do it we just know the number of times that they got caught. The intention is to do it without getting caught. We try to be as smart as we can not to get caught and that\u2019s a problem.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s like I can\u2019t even be a man, I couldn\u2019t even be a man and sit up here and allow nobody to put something in my mouth or stick needles in my arm or in my ass or wherever it goes. I couldn\u2019t be a man and say that and I win a title and something and say I did it because no, you didn\u2019t. You didn\u2019t do nothing.<\/p>\n<p>You cheated and that\u2019s bottom line. It\u2019s a touchy subject because I\u2019ve been a clean fighter all my life. I never even thought about even taking no drugs or put in my body to make my body do something that it\u2019s not normally supposed to do. I\u2019m a clean fighter. I\u2019m a fair fighter. I bring what I bring and I give you results.<\/p>\n<p>I say what I\u2019m going to do and I deliver. I give you results. I\u2019m very confident of what I say no matter what nobody may feel or what they may say. No. I don\u2019t have to deal with none of that because it\u2019s already there. I\u2019ve showed you 39 times, 39 knockouts.<\/p>\n<p>This is about to be my 40th fight with 39 KOs. Yes, we may have an amateur background but that\u2019s amateur. This is the pros and in the pros I\u2019m more experienced. I\u2019m a knockout artist. That\u2019s what I come to do and that\u2019s what I will do. I promise you that. Promise. Promise. I promise.<\/p>\n<p>Q<\/p>\n<p>First question for Luis, is Deontay the toughest fighter that you\u2019ve faced and do you have a prediction for this fight?<\/p>\n<p>L. Ortiz<\/p>\n<p>Absolutely not. It\u2019s going to be a hell of a fight and somebody\u2019s going to hit the canvas. While he keeps hyping himself and hyping himself and trying to believe in himself, it\u2019s going to be a bad night for him. He\u2019s talking about PEDs. I\u2019ve taken seven tests in a month and a week, seven blood and urine tests for VADA and the New York Commission.<\/p>\n<p>Bryant Jennings was the toughest fight Luis ever had.<\/p>\n<p>D. Wilder<\/p>\n<p>Oh lord, you can say that now because you ain\u2019t faced me.<\/p>\n<p>L. Ortiz<\/p>\n<p>Well, you\u2019re in for a hell of a problem March 3.<\/p>\n<p>Q<\/p>\n<p>Deontay how have you improved since that Szpilka fight and are there any tactics you plan on using differently when facing a southpaw this time around?<\/p>\n<p>D. Wilder<\/p>\n<p>No, my camp has been great. I\u2019ve had a lot of great sparring partners. I\u2019ve even had sparring partners that have whipped his sparring partners, so that explains a lot. It\u2019s going to be a great fight.<\/p>\n<p>Szpilka was a very awkward fighter, just like myself so when you get two awkward fighters in there, it turns-out to be like that. I adapt to every fighter. I feel every fighter out. No matter how long it takes, I\u2019ll figure you out.<\/p>\n<p>Szpilka was a very awkward fighter, just as myself so when you get two awkward fighters in there, it turns-out to be like that. I feel every fighter out. No matter how long it takes, I\u2019ll figure you out.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a 12-round fight. People got to understand, people want me to be so perfect. They want me to win all the rounds, they want me to look good doing it and they want the knockout. They expect so much of me but it\u2019s okay, because I always deliver what I say I\u2019m going to do.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s the thing about me, I\u2019m a man of my word and I have a lot of credit for being a man of my word worldwide, not just the belief part isn\u2019t it? So with this southpaw, I can\u2019t wait. He\u2019s not as awkward as you think, there\u2019s a lot of things that he does wrong, there\u2019s a lot of mistakes that he\u2019s making in the ring and it\u2019s due to his long amateur experience.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s going to be a bad thing for him when you\u2019re coming in the professional rankings so the fight is going to be good as it lasts and I can\u2019t wait. They never had nobody in front of them that won\u2019t just knock his head off like I want to do. They never had a guy in there so vicious, so mean as me, and it\u2019s so real.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s nothing that I have to pretend to be. I am who I am. I am the king.<\/p>\n<p>Q<\/p>\n<p>What do you think of Ortiz\u2019 level of opposition to this point?<\/p>\n<p>D. Wilder<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ll let you be the judge of that. Ortiz has never faced nobody with my caliber. Ortiz ain\u2019t never faced nobody with the intensity, with the mindset that I have or with the natural killer instinct that I have.<\/p>\n<p>All that shit goes out the window when you get in the ring with a real one. I don\u2019t care about all that. That ain\u2019t nothing.<\/p>\n<p>There is nothing that man\u2019s going to do to touch me where he\u2019s going to hurt me. I\u2019m going to walk through all that. I\u2019m telling you. That\u2019s nothing. I\u2019ve seen his style many, many, many times. I\u2019ve fought it coming-up in the amateurs. I\u2019ve got a lot of Cuban friends. I know their style. Trust me. And I can\u2019t wait. That\u2019s why I do my talking. I talk my talk so I can walk my walk.<\/p>\n<p>Anybody else on the outside of the ring can\u2019t talk the talk because they\u2019re not going to be able to walk that green mile. His trainers, his promoters, his people around him are not going to be able to walk the green mile. Luis Ortiz is going to be the only person that\u2019s going to be able to have to suffer the consequences and the more they talk, the more punishment that comes on him.<\/p>\n<p>Everything intensifies my anticipation of knocking his head off. Keep talking.<\/p>\n<p>L. DiBella<\/p>\n<p>Well guys, Deontay\u2019s going to go do some talking in the ring. He\u2019s got to go spar right now. Jay Jimenez thank you and Luis Ortiz for being on the call. Jay, Luis is going to get an opportunity to do all his talking on March 3rd. Thanks everybody for joining us.
