DeGale worked out and answered questions for media at the Stonebridge Boxing Club as he nears his third straight fight in the United States, this time looking to return to the UK as a unified world champion.

 

Here is what DeGale had to say във вторник:

 

JAMES DEGALE

 

“This is the best fighting the best and this fight will prove who’s the best in the divisionand I believe I am the number one super middleweight on the planet.

 

“Unification fights like this are still rare, never mind the best fighting the best, and me and Jack both wanted the fight. We both want to prove who is the best and everyone is in for a treat on Януари 14.

 

“I’ve got the best trainer in the world in Jim McDonnell; together we won the world title and now we’re going to unify the title. I’m going to win in style and do the business in the big New York City and come away with both belts to bring back to London.

 

“Jack’s a serious fighter, той е световен шампион, he has something I want. The winner of this will be the number in the division.

 

“Growing up, Joe Calzaghe, and Prince Naseem Hamed, they’re the ones I used to watch and I’d think, ‘I can’t wait to do that.’ Calzaghe’s one of my favorite fighters. He’s a bit similar to me. Той е южна лапа, хвърля много удари. He’s another one who didn’t get the full credit he was due until after he retired. But that’s how boxing is.

 

“I’ve got to perform. My last couple of performances haven’t been vintage James DeGale. This is the best fighting the best, the champ fighting the champ: this is proper.

 

“I don’t get the respect. I made a bit of history. If I unify the division, going across the pond, no one’s ever done that from Britain.

 

“This is the one. I get love and support, I do have my fans, but it just feels like I look around at different fighters who haven’t done half what I’ve done and they get so much more recognition.

 

“I don’t get the credit: the full recognition, Аз не. But after this fight, people will start respecting me and knowing I’m the best.”

Eleider Alvarez
Алварес ще постави задължителната си позиция на WBC като претендент за шампион Адонис“Свръхчовек” Stevenson (28-1, 23 Нокаута) в опасност с края на април за тази битка за световна титла, която вече е резервирана.
Бют също си е поставил за цел да предизвика Стивънсън. Ветеранът левчар планира ясно да демонстрира, че заслужава още един изстрел от заглавието на Wotld, поемане на No. 1 претендент в непобедения Алварес. Какъвто и да е крайният резултат, победителят ще бъде най-популярният и легитимен претендент за Стивънсън, драстично увеличаващ се интерес и известност от тотално разправяне на световното първенство в Квебек.
Всички съставки се събират, за да засилят обществения интерес към тази битка, което ще се окаже едно от най-значимите в историята на Квебек.
Това е локална конфронтация между двама спортисти, избрали Квебек за свой осиновен дом, напълно интегриране в културата на лоал и изучаване на френски език, както и къде са се борили с по-голямата част от своите битки. Резултатът от този голям сблъсък също ще има огромни последици на международно ниво в полутежка категория.
В единия ъгъл е бившият световен шампион Бют, който е направил много вдъхновяващи изпълнения по време на своя 13 Световно първенство битки (10-2-1, 8 Нокаута) да стане велика звезда и да се възхищава на знаменитост в Квебек.
Другият ъгъл намира непобедения Алварес, боец от световна класа през последните три години, който представи най-блестящите си изпълнения в чужбина, макар и най-вече в сенките на други големи звезди на Квебек. Бившият колумбийски олимпиец иска да установи истинската си стойност, след като се е подготвил за Стивънсън, биейки се с противници повече от изминалата година. Той ще спечели най-високата си чанта, което е подобно на това, което би получил, за да се бие първо със Стивънсън.
“Феновете на Квебек в тяхната цялост ще бъдат първо зарадвани от тази мега битка и съм убеден, че няма да има губещи,” GYM президент Ивон Michel каза. “Въпреки че е трудно да се предвиди изходът от тази конфронтация, най-вероятно тази битка ще бъде толкова интересна и близка, в крайна сметка двамата биха могли да получат, един след друг, a world championship fight against the powerful southpaw champion of Montreal, Adonis Stevenson.
It was important for us to have this fight at the Vidéotron Centre,” добави Vice-President Shows & Creative Content of Québecor, Michel Granger. The last time (the Stevenson-Williams fight) was a success and it will be the same on Февруари 24.”

The last six months have been tough for me,” Bute explained. “After the Washington situation was settled, I was happy to finally sit down and discuss my next fight. I accepted as soon as I was offered the fight. We’re talking about an undefeated guy ranked number 1 от WBC. It’s quite a challenge. I tip my hat to Alvarez for putting his position in peril.
I was expecting the winner of the unification title fight between James Dégale и Badou Jack, but I had no guarantees and I could not afford to wait. My goal is to fight again for a world championship, whether it’s at 168 или 175 паунда, and I did not want to just take a meaningless preparatory fight.
After evaluating all the options, we came to the conclusion that we had to take this fight,” Alvarez’ главата треньор Marc Ramsey отбеляза. “Разбира се, there are risksbut it’s worth it. Eleider has long awaited an opportunity to box against someone recognized in Quebec, and people have not yet seen his full potential. He was all smiles when he received the offer.”.
When Marc called me into his office,” Alvarez commented, “I was wondering what was going on. Generally, when he calls me into his office, it’s not good news. He asked me to sit down and if I wanted to face Bute. I smiled and said, да. He is the most popular boxer in Quebec, така че мотивацията ми ще бъде различна. Правя това за себе си и семейството си. Искам да стана световен шампион и сега минава през Lucian. Отдавна търся голяма битка като тази и за първи път ще бъда хедлайнер.”
