Hammer optimistisch nach London:
„Denn richtig hauen kann ich auch“!

Bei den letzten 10 Sparringrunden hat Christian Hammer noch einmal richtig aufs Gaspedal gedrückt. Fazit: Er ist topfit für das Duell am kommenden Samstag (28. Februar) in London mit Tyson Fury. „Es ist in der Vorbereitung für Christian alles gut gelaufen, es war einfach optimal“, sagt EC-Boss Erol Ceylan. „Wir fliegen morgen mit einem sehr guten Gefühl in die englische Hauptstadt“.

Tatsächlich haben die Sparringspartner um Alexander Ustinov den „Hammer aus Hamburg“ mächtig gefordert. „Ich bin alle Runden mit ihnen ohne Probleme gegangen, das gibt mir die nötige Sicherheit. Ich bin bereit für Fury“, so der 27-Jährige, der im Millenium Dome von Greenwich den Favorit stürzen will. Hammer: „Ich werde seine Siegesserie beenden, da bin ich ganz sicher“. Aber: 23 Mal verließ 2,06-Meter Riese Fury bisher den Ring als Sieger, 17 Mal siegte er sogar vorzeitig. „Das macht mir keine Angst“, so Hammer, „denn richtig hauen kann ich auch“.

Die deutschen Box-Fans können bei diesem spektakulären Fight in der 1. Reihe sitzen! Denn der TV-Sender SKY Select überträgt live aus London. Tatsächlich haben die TV-Macher viel mit dem „schweren Jungen“ aus Hamburg vor. Jeden Tag werben sie mit kurzen Einblendungen  (u.a. mit Hammer im weltberühmten Boxkeller der Ritze auf der Reeperbahn) für den Fight , wollen so den Schützling von Trainer Bülent Baser und EC-Boss Erol Ceylan noch stärker in den Fokus der Öffentlichkeit rücken.

Christian Hammer has made sparring with Alexander Ustinov and it went all very well. Christian knows that he has the punch. Leif Larsson has this experience. Will Christian Hammer do it again?

Himself is very self-confident that he will end Tyson Fury´s record of no losses. With his team has Hammer now arrived in London. His coach Bülent Baser and manager/promoter Erol Ceylan are even very sure about Hammer´s talent and his motivation and preparation for this bout. Everything has went extremely well.

Saturday 28.02.2015 it will be an exciting fight!

Hammer schnuppert schon „Höhenluft“

Um schon mal entsprechende „Höhenluft“ zu schnuppern, schließlich ist der in 23 Kämpfen siegreiche Fury 2,06 Meter lang, verpflichtete Ceylan den Weißrussen Alexander Ustinov (2,02 Meter) als Sparringspartner. „Ein Klassemann“, so Ceylan, „der nur einen einzigen seiner 31 Kämpfe verloren hat – und das gegen Kubrat Pulev. Ich glaube fest daran, dass er für Christian genau der richtige Sparringspartner ist“.  Von der Klasse Ustinovs konnten sich die Hamburger Box-Fans übrigens schon im Jahr 2007 überzeugen, denn damals stieg der Weissrusse zu zwei Kämpfen für Ahmet Öners Boxstall ARENA in den Ring.    

Hammer kommt seinem Traum näher gegen Wladimir Kllitschko zu kämpfen bevor er in Rente geht. Er muss am 28 Feb in London in der O 2 ATRENA den auf Nummer 1 stehenden Tyson Fury aus dem weg Räumen. Es gibt keine leichten Gegner mehr…

Hammer „ ich bin dankbar für meinem Management mir jetzt diesen Kampf zu ermöglichen. Man ist kein Richtiger Champion wenn man nicht auswärts einen Top Gegner geschlagen hat. Ich weiß das man auswärts mehr für ein Sieg tun muss. Ich werde in der Höhle des Löwen diesen Sieg nach Hause holen. Ich werde Top vorbereitet in diesen Kampf gehen. Ich hoffe das nicht der Kampf kurzfristig abgesagt wird wie es so oft bei Fury passiert ist. Ich hoffe er macht keinen Rückzieher. Ich danke ihm auch für diesen Mutigen schritt und rechne es ihm hoch an das er in einer Komfortablen Position so ein hohes Risiko eingeht“.

FURY FACES RISKY DEFENCE AGAINST TOP RANKED HAMMER AT THE O2 ARENA WITH KLITSCHKO FIGHT AT STAKE

Heavyweight destroyer Tyson Fury faces a dangerous test against big-hitting Christian Hammer* on Saturday 28th February at London’s 02 arena, live and exclusive on BoxNation.

Fury puts his WBO International title on the line against the WBO number four ranked Hammer in a risky title defence ahead of a projected summer showdown with reigning world champion Wladimir Klitschko.

The Wilmslow giant dismantled Dereck Chisora for the second time last month to win the British and European titles and also secured the number one and mandatory position to Klitschko, who next fights in April, but must then defend his WBO title against Fury next.

German based Romanian Hammer, who fights out of the EC Boxing team, is a former WBO European Champion who has 10 stoppages out of 17 wins, and will be looking to cause a huge upset on these shores by being the first to defeat Fury and earn himself a shot at Klitschko.

In his last fight he defeated then rising, dynamite-hitting, Brazilian prospect Irineu Beato Costa Jnr, who until then had stopped 13 out of 15 opponents early, but Hamer showed that he can box as well as punch by winning every single round of the twelve rounder.

Fury, 25, is not worried by the threat Hammer poses to his dream of fighting for the world title and relishes the challenge that he brings.

“I’ve said all along I’m not like these other fighters in the division who pussy foot around, take soft touches and call themselves fighters,” Said Fury.

“I could have taken an easy job at the O2 arena to keep my position safe for my world title fight against Klitschko, but that’s not what Tyson Fury is about or what the public want to see from someone who has promised from day one to win the world heavyweight title,”

“On paper it’s a dangerous job against Hammer, he’s highly ranked, he brings a big punch with him, he’ll have ambitions of his own to beat me and grab himself a world title shot against Klitschko and I’m sure he’ll be full of confidence coming over here,”

“Training for Hammer will start in early January and this year is a big one for me and the world title is in my sight.  My focus will be on Hammer now, he’s my priority and the man in the way of my dream,“

“There’s no messing about in the heavyweight division, one punch can turn everything upside down, that goes for him and for me, but I’ve got two things that other fighters lack, a fighting heart and massive balls.  I love to fight, if I go down I get up and win, that’s why people love me and want to see me fight.  Tyson Fury will never lose, simple.”

Hammer is promising to pull off of a seismic upset.  He said, “I’m grateful for this fantastic opportunity to fight Tyson Fury and I’ll be in the best shape of my life.  This is a golden opportunity for me to get the number one position to fight Klitschko for the world title if I can beat Fury.  I love to fight bigger, taller, men and Fury is perfect for me.  It will be a hard fight, but I’ve got every confidence that I’ll surprise everyone with a win in his backyard.”

Promoter Frank Warren says it’s a tough fight for Fury, “Fury will have his hands full with Hammer who could create a huge shock if he wins.  It’s a risky fight for Fury who’s within touching distance of Klitschko and the world title, but Fury needs to keep active by fighting until Klitschko gets his fight in April out of the way and then comes to the table to negotiate the fight with Fury or the fight goes to purse bids.  Fury needs to concentrate on Hammer and leave the talk of Klitschko after he’s dealt with Hammer.”

Warren also added that he’ll have some very big and exciting news to announce shortly for Chris Eubank Jnr. who makes his comeback on the show.

An action packed features Cromer ace Liam Walsh defending his British and Commonwealth Super-Featherweight titles; Bradley Skeete returning to action and challenging for the Vacant WBO European Welterweight title; big-hitting Enfield star Frank Buglioni making the first defence, in his second reign, of the WBO European Super-Middleweight title; Erith talent Lewis Pettitt defending his WBA International Super-Bantamweight Championship; plus exciting welterweight Ahmet Patterson defending his English Welterweight Championship against Sunderland’s undefeated Glenn Foot that will also be an Eliminator for the British Championship; American heavyweight and former world title challenger Eddie Chambers will feature in a showdown with a top 15 ranked opponent; plus the pro debut of Essex super-featherweight prospect Boy Jones Jnr.
