AMIR KHAN

 

“Am crezut că am lucrat bine în interiorul. Nu am mai făcut o mulțime de muncă în buzunar de genul asta și am de gând să facă mai mult de faptul că, în viitor,.

 

“Dau Chris o mulțime de credit. El a venit în față o mult mai mult decât ne-am gândit că ar fi și el a avut o bărbie mare la noapte.

 

“Chris se sa dat totul la noapte. Acesta este cel mai bun Algieri le-am văzut de mult timp, și dacă el ar fi luptat Manny (Pacquiao) în acest fel s-ar putea fi câștigat.

 

“Toată lumea știe Vreau Floyd (Mayweather) următoare după toate vorbesc despre asta, dar atunci când așteptați și de speranță pentru ceva pentru acest timp se poate seta din nou te. Nu vreau să trec cu vederea alte luptători, inclusiv Chris.

 

“Prima mea show cu PBC a fost mare. The New York Publicul a fost minunat și într-adevăr a primit în ea. Promovarea a fost excelent și sunt mândru de a fi o parte din această echipă.”

 

CHRIS ALGIERI

 

“Am crezut că am presat Khan bine și am atinge mele. El cu siguranta nu ia plăcut când am ajuns în corpul său.

 

“Am crezut că am rănit-l de mai multe ori, dar Khan este un luptător precaut și el se învârte în afara. Cred că judecătorii care-a placut la noapte. Cred ca aspiratorul, fotografii mai greu ar obține un pic mai mult respect.

 

“Cred că este fantastic PBC. Accentul este pus pe luptătorii, nu politica sau promotorii. Acest este de a ajuta aduce acest sport înapoi la zilele de glorie de box a lui de evenimente de maximă audiență pentru fani.

 

“Nu m-am gândit mult la această luptă după. Sunt dezamăgit, dar voi viziona filmul de la această luptă și vom merge de acolo.”

 

JAVIER FORTUNA

 

“Sunt foarte surprins de faptul că lupta a fost pe distanța. Vasquez este un luptator puternic. După a cincea rundă, Am fost box la scorul de puncte.

 

“Nu am fost niciodată într-adevăr rănit de Vasquez, dar am rănit mâna mea pe capul lui.

 

“Vasquez nu prea mi-a afectat pe tot parcursul luptei. The swelling on my eye is from a headbutt.

 

The biggest key to my success la noapte was my training. Before this I didn’t have the stamina that I needed. Totuși, after my work with Hector Bermudez leading up to this fight I was more than ready.

 

Becoming a champion here in New York is huge for me. I’m very proud of my performance la noapte.”

 

BRYAN VASQUEZ

 

My style is to box and then move. Fortuna fought a smart fight la noapte. He wouldn’t engage me and fight.

 

Fortuna used his head and elbows a lot la noapte, but I don’t want to use that as an excuse. I tried telling the referee, but nothing was done.

 

I worked very hard for three months of training to get to this fight. I hope I won over some fans today because I fight to please them.

 

Hopefully I get a rematch because this is not the end of my career, and I’d love the chance to take that belt from Fortuna.

 

I want to thank PBC for this opportunity. It was great being a part of this show and I hope they’ll think of me again in the future.

Aici este ceea ce participantii au avut de spus Miercuri:

 

AMIR KHAN

 

I really believe that I have the movement, the skills and the technique to beat Chris Algieri and look spectacular doing it.

 

Algieri has been in the ring with big names before so we know that’s not going to scare him and he won’t get nervous. I’m going to be ready for anything he brings to the table.

 

This is going to be an entertaining fight because of our styles. We both like to throw a lot of punches and there will be a lot of movement. This will be a more skillful fight and I think the fans will enjoy what they see.

 

I’ve always wanted to fight here at Barclays Center and I really am excited to put on a great performance for all the New Yorkers.

 

Virgil Hunter has been great for me as a fighter and he’s helped me really understand the sport of boxing. I’ve worked on my technique and my defense and really just everything.

 

Training camp for me has been really good. I’m focused on my opponent and I’m not going to make any mistakes. It’s going to be a great performance from me vineri.”

 

CHRIS ALGIERI

 

This is going to be a great fight with two fast-paced boxers. It’s going to be very exciting for everyone watching.

 

Working down in Florida with John David Jackson really refreshed a lot of things in boxing for me. I got to see new things and try new things. I learned a lot.

 

The only thing that matters is proving something to myself and I do feel like I have to prove something. I wasn’t happy with my last performance at all. I know I belong here at the elite level and it’s time for me to prove it.

 

I like to challenge myself and this is a great opportunity. I’m ready for this, I will challenge anybody in the welterweight division.

 

I feel very comfortable being here in New York and I’m happy to be back at Barclays Center.

 

JAVIER FORTUNA

 

For me it is an honor to be here in Brooklyn. This will be a great night for all of my fans.

 

I hope my opponent doesn’t have any excuses vineri, because I’m going to knock him out.

 

Everyone here is going to see a great performance and I can’t wait to get in the ring.

 

I’m a strong fighter and I am looking forward to showing everyone what I am capable of.

 

BRYAN VASQUEZ

 

I’m very thankful to be here and I look forward to a great fight. I promise it’s going to be a war.

 

I’m an exciting fighter who always comes to fight. This is my time and I will not disappoint.

 

Fighting in New York is a great opportunity. I want people to see that Costa Rica has great fighters.

 

I know I have a tough opponent, but he has never faced anyone like me. I’m going to give it my all and I hope he does the same.

 

MARCUS BROWNE

 

I feel like having a daughter has given me the kick in the rear that really has me focused on what I want to do, which is becoming a world champion. I want to give her a better life than I ever had.

 

My intensity and focus has never been higher. The fun part of boxing is back again.

 

I told my daughter that ‘daddy is going to give you the world.So I guess I need to become a world champion to give her the world. Her first word might be ‘champ.'

 

I’m so thankful to all the people at Barclays Center that allow me to continue to show off my talent and skills in this beautiful building.

 

Fighting on this Premier Boxing Champions card is really special and amazing. When I went to the Olympics in 2012 we stayed in Bolton and worked out at Amir Khan’s gym, now it comes full circle.

 

Fans can expect to see ‘spizazzfrom me. That’s a word I came up with back in my amateur days. I’m here to bring that ‘spizazz’ înapoi, if you want to know what that is you have to buy a ticket for Vineri noapte.”

 

HEATHER HARDY

 

I don’t look past what is in front of me. I have a really tough challenge in front of me vineri. I know she has an incredible desire to win and I’m ready for that.

 

I’m a pretty aggressive fighter but I’ve been known to box. I go in there and make adjustments but I’m not afraid to throw punches.

 

There was a really unfinished feeling after my last fight, I was disappointed. I expected more from my opponent. I wanted to put on a show for fans to remember.

 

I definitely want to make up for my last fight this time and I feel like my opponent is on the same page with me about where we need to go to take this sport further.

Here is what Khan and Algieri had to say about training camp, each other and more:

 

AMIR KHAN

 

Algieri is a fighter that has a lot of skills and assets. His range and height give him good advantages against opponents but I believe with my speed, movement and style it will be too much for him.

 

Each day me and Virgil Hunter are getting stronger and we have built a really good rapport. It takes time to get that but he understands my style even more now and what works for me so we’re only going to keep growing.

 

My aim since I was a kid and got into this sport was to be the very best. I fulfilled a dream when I got to the Olympics at 17 and brought back a silver medal. Later I became a world champion and then unified the light-welterweight division. My goal now is to fight the very best at 147 pounds and make my mark on this division too.

 

I was away in training camp when my daughter turned one last week. It’s hard to be away from her but as a fighter those are the sacrifices you have to make. Everything I do is for her and I can’t wait to see her and spend time with her after this fight. Her birthday celebrations have been put on hold until after the fight!

 

I’m really looking forward to returning to New York and fighting at Barclays Center in Brooklyn. I have good memories of this city because it’s the place where I had my first fight on US soil against Paulie Malignaggi in 2010 and also where I got married. I’m out to make it another good time this weekend.

 

 

CHRIS ALGIERI

I know that it gets said all the time, but this was truly the best and most intense training camp of my life. Working with John David Jackson has truly been a blessing. He has brought out the best Chris Algieri there is. You are going to see a whole new fighter come Vineri noapte.

 

I am excited to be back in New York and excited to show the world what I am really made of vineri noapte. We are just a few days away from the fight and I am so anxious to get in there and get to work.

 

Amir is a tough fighter there is no doubt about that, but I am very confident in my ability and the game plan that coach has come up with for me.

 

You are going to see two proven champions in a high intensity and high level fight, laying everything on the line come Vineri noapte.”
