Here are what the participants had to say at yesterday’s workout:

Danny O'Connor, Framingham, MA:

“I think the show is big but, for me, it’s just another fight with Paul. I’m excited about the challenge in front of me, matching my skills against somebody like Paul with his resume. Jag är väldigt fokuserad. All the work is done here (in gym).”

Ryan Kielczweski, Quincy, MA:

“It’s really cool fighting close to home on such a big card with double world title fights. Someday, hopefully, I’ll be there. I’m focusing on my fight and when that’s over I’ll watch Edwin (Rodriguez) fight.”

Javier Fortuna, Den rumänska, Dominikanska republiken

“I feel super good and super confident. I’ve been training here (Boston) but haven’t seen much of the city. I expect a lot of fans there for me. I’ve been doing a lot of Spanish interviews. I await their approval of my performance.”

Jonathan Guzman, Santo Domingo, Dominikanska republiken

“I feel very, very good. Jag är redo att slåss, 19 för 19 (19 vinner, 19 Kos). I have a lot of family living in Lawrence (suburb) Boston) and I’ve been staying here (S. Boston).”

Ken Casey, President & CEO of Murphys Boxing

“Boston is a sports-crazed city with a lot of good local fighters. It’s a shame a show like this hasn’t happened here in a long time. Sometimes it just takes good fighters and the right promoter to help them. It’s the perfect combination now.”
