The training camp is going fantastic. We are here in his hometown of Montreal training at his gym. His gym is just opening. Izany, this would be the first training camp held at this gym and for such a fight of this magnitude where Adonis is defending his world championship for the fifth time. I’ve only been here for one week any other time, but Montreal is a great place and a great place for training as well. The city has been so good and warm welcoming me here, ary hitako ny antony Adonis tia Montreal, ary hitako ny antony tia Adonis Montreal koa.

Sakio understands the opportunity that’s before him, and we look to come to Canada and Montreal. And we’re going to into Adonis’ hometown. Izany, Tonga any aho, nataony fa. You got to go into the lion’s den and take the title. So that’s what we’re working on doing and that’s what we plan on doing.
L. Milner
Great. Misaotra anao. Okay, we’re going to go ahead and open it up for questions from the media. Operator, Afaka manao izany ianao, azafady?
Q
Adonis, so much talk about you fighting the other light heavyweight champions and who the real light heavyweight champion of the world is. What are your thoughts about these other guys and it is interfering with your concentration for your fight with Sakio on Faha-4 Aprily ao amin'ny CBS?
A. Stevenson
Eny, Fantatro izy ireo tokoa ny niresaka momba izany, fa tena aho dia nifantoka tamin'ny Bika izao, because Bika is in my face now. I don’t see anybody. I don’t see anybody in my face now. It’s Bika. And I don’t underestimate him, ary tena vonona aho ho azy. Dia ho vonona ho azy Faha-4 Aprily. Izany, ny hifantoka ao Bika. Fantatro fa maro be noho ny olona niresaka tamiko momba ny fomba hiadiana ity, fa tena mifantoka aho amin'ny bandy ity.
Q
Inona ny fomba fiasa amin'ny fitiliana ny zava-mahadomelina ny Faha-4 Aprily?
A. Stevenson
Telo andro ao amin'ny fanofanana sy ny fotoana iray enina ora in the morning. Izany, they come into the condo and to do a drug test and two times in the training after sparing. I think it’s good for the boxers, to protect them. I’m very glad about that. And when I got to fight, Izaho manao ny fitsapana, fantatrao? Izany, dia tsy vao voalohany ataoko ny fitsapana, but I always to do it. This is fantastic, Tiako fa.
Q
Mihevitra ve ianao fa tsy maintsy ny ady totohondry mba manana izany karazana fitsapana?
A. Stevenson
Mazava ho azy dia ilaina satria, dia manampy anao. Izany, dia tena zava-dehibe mba hahazoana antoka fa ny zavatra rehetra dia mandeha tsara. Ary izany no anisan'ny ady totohondry sy izany ny fivoaran'ny. Tena faly aho ary faly sy manohana fa.
Q
Sakio, ahoana ny hevitrao momba izany?
S. Taurus
Heveriko fa tena, tena tsara fa manana [unintelligible] since I’ve been here. I think it’s good for the new generation. It goes for this sport. Ho ahy, Heveriko fa tonga lafatra. Izany, satria tonga lafatra, maro ny olona [unintelligible] misotro ronono [unintelligible] drug and they never get tested. And now with new generation, Heveriko fa tena tsara, fantatrao, for younger kids to try to see if they want to win. Once you come in this sport you have to have been clean. Tsy tonga lafatra ny olona fikambanana mba hahazoana mandray anjara amin'ny sy hizaha toetra azy ireo. Dia ny hanao zavatra tonga lafatra.
Q
Noho izany dia samy hitsapana in-telo, roa nandritra ny fiofanana in-toby, indray mandeha teo anoloan'ny ady? Is that correct, ry zalahy?
A. Stevenson
Tsy fantatro ho azy, but for me it’s three time. And we do a piss test, ary manao fitsirihana,, koa.
S. Taurus
Eny, for me it was three time. Then two blood test–like blood test and piss test. This is the third time them testing me since I was here.
Q
Ny fanontaniana voalohany izay nangatahina Adonis momba ny fiomanana ho amin'ny ady atsy ho atsy, ary koa ny fanelingelenana mety ho avy rehetra manodidina mpanohitra, Te hahazo ny hanampy ny fanontaniana toy izany koa ny Adonis indray.
A. Stevenson
Fantatrao, ny karazana zavatra toy ny bibidia sy ny Bika dia nampiseho dia tonga–fantatrao, he just keep coming. The kind of stuff like that, I love this kind of stuff because he’s large and keep pressuring. And so, izany dia mampiseho raha manao fahadisoana toy izany dia dia ho ela knockout ao amin'ny ady.
Q
Ny fanontaniako dia ny “Siramamy” Hill. “Siramamy”, I fotsiny tiany ny hahafantatra efa sitrakao ny fomba izay voafidy noho izany ady atsy ho atsy, raha Izy no karazana fitsapana ianao mitady toy ny mpampiofana.
S. Hill
Raha ny mitady fomba ny Adonis mba hiady–and actually it doesn’t really matter to me. I’m happy with the selection of Sakio Bika. I have no problem with his style. I actually like the style because he’s coming forward. He wants to fight, and Adonis loves to fight. Adonis likes to go to toe-to-toe, and he likes to box. This is important for the maturity and, fa ny fianarana bebe kokoa momba Adonis ady totohondry mba ho afaka ho eo izany amin'ny mpiady toy ny Sakio Bika, iza no mahery, Tapa-kevitra ary za-draharaha, izay sarotra dia afaka hanohitra. He can take a punch. He’s never been knocked out or anything like that. Izany, izany no fahafahana ho an'ny Adonis mba mety mandeha 12 fihodinana, na ho any an-tatỳ aoriana fihodinana, izay afaka manorina sy manampy ny asany toy ny ady amin'ny tatỳ aoriana fihodinana, izay izy no afaka hanao. Izany ady eto amin'ny Bika dia fitsapana, ary Adonis tia ny ho sedraina. I love for him to be tested as well. This is the only thing that’s going to make him grow and become more of a talented fighter and become a bigger superstar.
Q
Adonis, no jerenao any ny mafy 12 manodidina ady na no mandray izany ho toy antony manosika ho amin 'ny hoe ny voalohany handondona io bandy avy raha izany fahafahana izany dia mampahafantatra ny tenany?
A. Stevenson
It is motivation for me. That’s why I train very hard. I know he’s large as well in his punch. And he wants to keep me pressured. I love this kind of style. And if he goes for 12 fihodinana Vonona ny 12 fihodinana. I fight and spar. My fight is, hiantra sy ny Fanofanana ny 12 rounds.When mahazo eo amin'ny peratra, I Mitady ny knockout. I don’t look for the 12 manodidina. If he goes the distance or 12 fihodinana, this is not a problem. Afaka totohondry. I’m beautiful. I got a good skill. I’m a Superman. Izany, it’s not a problem for me. Fa, first I’m looking for a knockout. And I think any boxer going in the ring to fight always looks for a knockout. Indraindray, it’s not like that. Fa, ahy, I Mitady ny knockout. And Emanuel said knockouts sell.
Q
You said that you weren’t impressed with Kovalev’s performance over Jean Pascal. Do you want to put on a better performance? Do you feel pressure to put on a better performance since you said that? What do you think about that?
A. Stevenson
I’m not going to put pressure on myself. “Superman” Tsy mahatsapa ny fanerena. Aho, satria hampiasa ny fahaiza-manao ady totohondry, ary aho handeha hampiasa ny lohako amin'ny peratra. I don’t have to put pressure on something like that. I don’t feel like that. I’m the man. I’m the guy to get beat.
Q
Dia Sakio Bika mpanohitra voalohany dia nanolo-kevitra ny anao?
A. Stevenson
Eny, it was the first. He was the first to open. We’re happy, and we don’t have a problem. And I know Sakio he was light–aza, super middleweight champion. It’s very good, satria tsara ny mpanao ady totohondry. He was champion last two fights. That’s a good opportunity for him, koa, mba handeha amin'ny fahazavana ny lanja mavesatra mba hiady ahy. And it’s a good opportunity for me, koa.
Q
Te-hanontany anao amin'ny fotoana inona no hilaza amin'ny tenanao ianao, “Tsy maintsy miady,” na “Te-hiady Sergey Kovalev mba hampiraisana ny fehikibo eo amin'ny fizarana.” At what point did you say that in your career?
A. Stevenson
I don’t think about Kovalev now. I think about Bika. It doesn’t matter what I said now because I have a fight coming up with Bika. Fa, azo antoka Te-hiady ho anaram-boninahitra, fa ankehitriny–fa hitako izao efa nahazo Bika amin'ny tavako.
Q
Ianareo tsy fiantraikany lalina tamiko ny fomba Kovalev nijery tany amin'ny ady ny herinandro hafa an'i Pascal. Nahoana?
A. Stevenson
I’m not impressed by it because this is the first big fight Pascal had since Bernard and he fights one time a year before Bernard Hopkins. Izany, in four years he fights one time. Izany, izany no antony tsy taitra aho momba izany, Pascal satria tsy mavitrika toy ny mpanao ady totohondry izy taloha ho indray amin'ny andro.
Q
Fantatrareo fa Kovalev, because of the WBC is going to be mandatory. I want to know how hard will you press for that mandatory if you’re successful again.
A. Stevenson
Mazava ho azy, Fantatro. I’m ready to fight a title. Fa, Dia aoka ny ekipa, Al HAYMON, miahy izany. Then after that Kovalev we can unify the title. It’s not a problem for me because the two titles he gets now he gets Bernard Hopkins’ anaram-boninahitra, ary izaho tokony hiady Bernard Hopkins.
Q
Izany dia ady izay mitranga ho amin'ny fahitalavi-pirenena any Etazonia, free TV. Have you given any thought about the fact that you’ll be performing in front of an audience probably bigger than has ever seen you fight ever?
A. Stevenson
Mazava ho azy. This is a good opportunity for that. And first of all, Tiako ny hisaotra Al Haymon noho izany, koa, satria, that’s him putting on the show. And since Muhammad Ali and Sugar Ray Leonard, back in the day it was free. Ankehitriny, we offer the public the fight for free and that’s a great opportunity for me. Izany, I have a good performance for Sakio Bika. Fa, I know Sakio Bika is a tough opponent and he’s very awkward and tough. We’ll prepare for that, ary vonona. Izay koa tena tsara ho an'ny tanora ankizy, mijery ny ady. Tsara izany fahafahana ho an'ny rehetra.
Q
Dia Nitazana teo amin'ny tilikambo lehibe mpihaino mety tsy izay nanao anao tao amin'ny toerana izay tadiavinao ny knockout?
A. Stevenson
Mazava ho azy. That gives me a lot of motivation. That’s why I train really hard for this fight and watch–ka ny olona mijery ahy. Since Muhammad Ali, I’m the first to be poor and the projects. Izany, Tena aho, tena faly, and I’m going to put a good performance. Like Emanuel said, knockouts mivarotra.
Q
Adonis, aiza ianao fampiofanana herinandro ity? Ary avy eo, raha ny marina no handeha Quebec City?
A. Stevenson
You know I opened a new gym in Quebec City. This is a good opportunity for me to train in my hometown. This is the first time since 2011. Aho dia afaka mijery ilay ankizy, koa. Izany, Tiako fa. And we train very hard, ahy sy ny mpanazatra. We put the hard work pay off. This is different. This is a good opportunity for me, ary tiako izany.
Q
Izany, ianao any Quebec City izao dia?
A. Stevenson
I’m in Montreal now. Quebec City, Handeha aho amin'ity herinandro ity.
Q
Izany, raha ny marina, rehefa ianao no handeha any Quebec City?
A. Stevenson
Alahady.
Q
Indray, my question goes to Adonis. I just want to know if a knockout is the result that you absolutely need or would you be disappointed if you didn’t win by a knockout against Bika?
A. Stevenson
I know Bika is a tough opponent. Izany, Vonona aho ho 12 fihodinana. Raha toa ka misy ny knockout, it’s there. If it’s not, it’s not. Fa, ao ny peratra, I Mitady ny knockout. Izany, tsy zava-dehibe ho ahy, but I’m always looking for the knockout. That’s a Kronk. The Kronk Gym and my team we’re looking for that. Since the Kronk it’s been a while. They’re always looking for the knockout. If you’re training in the Kronk Gym and any fighter is looking for the knockout.
Q
Fa, mety hampidi-doza ny ho foana mitady knockout satria dia raha tsy mahazo azy io haingana araka izay tianao dia afaka mahazo mandalo ny fomba ny ady totohondry. Is that something that worries you?
A. Stevenson
Afaka mandeha 12 manodidina. It’s not a problem for me. We train for that. We train for that. I can go 12 manodidina. And I’m from Kronk Gym, Detroit. And this place, tsara isika, mpanazatra tsara toy ny Emanuel “Siramamy” Hill. They know boxing. They teach me very well my skill and everything and my balance. They know boxing. And so, fantany raha ny knockout tsy misy, fa isika dia handeha hiasa. We’re going to use the good ability to go for 12 fihodinana. It’s not a problem.
Q
Sakio, Fotsiny aho te-hahafantatra, Inona no Tsapan'ny ho anao amin'ny toby fampiofanana mampiofana ho fanazavana ady lanja mavesatra rehefa lany tsara tarehy be ny asa iray manontolo amin'ny faran'izay middleweight?
S. Taurus
Tsapako fa zava-tsarotra vaovao mba hiakatra ka miezaka hiady ny omby lehibe. Rehefa mahita ny regimen, tsy misy olona ve te-hiady ahy. Tena kely foana sarotra satria ny olona tsy te-hiady amiko. Ho ahy izany zava-tsarotra lehibe, satria Stevenson, Adonis dia tompon-daka lehibe aho ary te ho tompon-daka amin'izao tontolo izao eo amin'ny fiainana. Antoka indrindra aho 'andraikitra azy aho. Ary avy Aprily 4, satria ho tsara fiomanana, , sosotra rehefa tsy naringan'Andriamanitra lehibe mpiara-miasa, Fotsiny aho mitady anao ny mahita fa afaka mitana ny omby lehibe. Adonis no voalohany ho ahy amin'izao lanja, but I just feel confident, Mahatsapa tsara. Vonona aho, fantatrao, mba handeha any, ary mampiseho ny olona eo amin'izao tontolo izao aho, dia afaka namely Adonis Stevenson amin'ny Aprily 4. I want to tell the big bull. I want to move up in light heavyweight division, aryAprily 4 olona handeha ho hahita izany.
Q
Moa ve hahatsapa ny lanjan'ny tsara ho anao? Do you see yourself staying at light heavyweight?
S. Taurus
Hitako ny tenako toy ny fahazavana lanja mavesatra. Hitako tena any am-mazava lanja mavesatra satria mahita ireo olona marobe izao tontolo izao tompon-daka. For me just it’s just a challenge. I want to challenge myself. Azoko atao mazava mavesatra mora. It would be a struggle to do super middleweight. Fantatrao, Azoko atao mazava lanja mavesatra tena mora. Afaka mitana ny omby lehibe, satria mitana ny rehetra. This is a big opportunity for me to try to see if can I handle the big bull. I can handle Adonis. toy ny Aprily 4, I will try to test myself. You all ready? Vonona aho. Manana fiomanana tsara,. Isika mafy mampiofana ho amin'izany ady. Mijery fotsiny aho ho any Quebec sy hikarakara ny raharaham-barotra.
Q
Miaraka amin'izay koa, ianao amin'ny Sergey Kovalev / Jean Pascal ady, ary dia nita an'i HBO hevitra tamin'ny fotoana, Bernard Hopkins, and you told him that you guarantee that you will fight Sergey Kovalev. I wanted to see what your answer was to what you think of Sergey Kovalev and his performance amin'ny sabotsyalina roa lasa izay faran'ny herinandro.
A. Stevenson
Pascal Tsy maninona isika ankehitriny, satria miresaka momba Bika. Handeha hiady Aprily 4 amin'ny Bika. Tena zavatra tena sarotra momba Bika sy Kovalev Tsy olona ankehitriny rehefa mieritreritra momba ny ady amin'ny Kovalev sy Pascal ary avy eo rehefa hoy aho, “Tsara, Eny, Aho handeha hiady.” He’s not a person for me now. The person now is Bika.
Q
Ianao antoka fa manaraka ny ady ho amin'ny Kovalev niverina tany May ny tamin'ny taona taorian'ny 12 rounds against Fonfara. You beat Fonfara.
A. Stevenson
You can’t guarantee. It’s not working like that. It’s not football. It’s not hockey. And one punch can change anything. So now I got Bika in my face, ary mifantoka indrindra aho amin'ny Bika, because I know this guy gives problems to all the champions. He was champion. And I know this fighter is tough.
