Claressa盾
“已经辛苦了七个星期. 很多人不知道,我真的不喜欢对此公开, 但是我必须 183 我在一月份的最后一战之后磅,现在我 160. 这是 23 英镑. 我当时在营地里跑步,为战斗做准备,而专注于体重对我来说却大不相同.
“我感觉很好,准备出发. 我很高兴她能安全地完成一切,但是现在我很兴奋. 你们都知道我打架之前会怎样. 冠军在这里.
“自从我第一次成为专业人士以来,发生了很多变化. 在我的第一次战斗中, 我对弗朗肯感到沮丧 (船员德祖恩) 在战斗中. 整个营地我都很沮丧,我真的无法应付正在发生的一切. 现在我知道如何处理媒体, 锻炼, 采访并仍然保持纪律. 我必须在这个训练营中减轻很多体重,这只能增加更多纪律.
“这让我非常高兴,并且在主战海报上看到四名女战士简直令人感动。. 我很高兴他们决定将它们放到电视上. 他们之前给我穿上衣服,但一直是其他女人穿上我的目标,所以当他们决定穿上Tori Nelson和Christina Hammer时,我感到非常兴奋,因为以前从未做过. 女子拳击运动正在到某个地方.
“我一直都知道,要让女子拳击达到更高的水平,我将需要转为专业。. 这就是为什么我在成为专业人士之前一直等着获得第二枚金牌的原因. 成为领导者很特别. 我觉得我在每场比赛中都尽力而为,尽我所能,证明我的拳击能力比 90 那个男人的百分比. 如果您可以选择让男人成为主要事件,或者让我成为主要事件, 我一直希望他们选择我.
“There’s always mutual respect between me and my opponents. I’m thankful for them because I can’t do this by myself. I thank Hanna for stepping up and it’s mutual respect until Friday. I start getting really mean on Thursday,Friday is the fight and then after that we can exchange numbers and be friends.
“I expect her to use her gifts. She’s really good on her legs and she’s strong up top. I think she lacks in speed so I expect her to try to counter me and try to force me to make mistakes with her movement. I think she underrates my power.
“I never said that I wanted to get more knockouts. I’m perfectly fine being 5-0 有两个击倒. 在一天结束时, I’m fine with that. The longer I’m in the ring boxing, 更好. The more they get to see me on TV, that’s fine. Of course I would love to get the big knockout but look how disappointed Errol Spence Jr. was to get such a quick knockout of Ocampo. That didn’t please his fans. 如果谈到淘汰赛, 它来了.
“This will be my toughest fight. She’s the most skilled and has the most experience. She’s a three-time world champion. I’ve fought former world champions but she’s a three-time world champion to date. The girl that beat her, Hanna avenged that loss. I’m looking forward to her coming out and putting 100 percent in and I hope for us to have a great fight.
“I’m always confident going into fights. I’m not leaving the ring without having two new belts.”
汉娜·加布里尔斯
“I think that this is a time right now where women can have this type of platform. Claressa is a great champion and I have faced great women’s champions. I think it’s a great time for boxing fans to enjoy a quality fight. She’s a champion. 我是冠军. This will be a great matchup.
“You are going to see a very technical and aggressive fighter. That’s the only way that you can fight Claressa because she’s so aggressive herself and so tough, you can’t go in the ring passive against her. You have to put your life on the line in there and that’s what I’m planning to do.
“I feel honored to be on such a great card. 这是一个很好的机会,我只希望大家能像我一样. 我们刻苦训练. 就我而言, 我想带出最好的自己,这样球迷们才能离开赛场,感觉很棒. 这就是拳击是所有关于. 带来大多数其他体育运动无法带给人们的娱乐和情感.
“这场斗争对我来说意义重大. 我爱的每个人现在都处于艰难时期, 包括我的家人. 我只想以身作则,向所有人展示一切都是零. 您仍然可以使用尽可能多或更少的资源来进行战斗. 我将这场战斗奉献给我所有的亲人,因为我保证会有更好的时光.
“当我五岁时,我遭受了性虐待,因此我的少年时期很艰难. 体育总是让我远离那个. 当我受伤时,我不得不停止参加比赛, 我以为我的生活结束了. 在接下来的五六年中, 我非常具有破坏性,觉得我没有目标. 当我转身 24, 我开始另辟passage径,得知发生在我身上的一切都使我成为了今天的我.
“我们并不是真的专注于任何人的弱点,因为我们相信,如果您是一个优秀的专业人士,并且您将为此献身, 你应该在自己的弱点上变得更好. 所以我们专注于她的优势,我认为我们有一个很好的计划. They say that she’s been underestimating me a lot but I think it’s part of her game and part of what she does.
“I think her strengths are pretty obvious. She has great feet. I don’t know if she punches hard but she’s very explosive. She must have a lot of power and she’s very defensive. She keeps her distance and she’s so big and I’m so small that we will have to risk a lot of things. Her confidence is one of her biggest strengths.
“This will probably be my toughest fight so far. I never had an amateur career, I had just one fight. Claressa has fought 80-something times so my schooling has been in the professional environment and I have had to learn in the process. Every fight has been a hard fight because I have to solve problems and I think she is definitely the toughest opponent because she’s so tall and so fast. She must walk around normally at 185 pounds and I’m not as big so we were a little worried at the beginning at how we would reach her body but we finally were able to figure that out in training and I’m confident that my game is going to surprise her a lot.
“Hopefully we can bring a surprise and people will get to see me and let everybody know that there are more great boxers out there that aren’t getting the same exposure or marketing that Claressa is getting. I don’t feel disrespected, I see this is an opportunity to show what I’ve been working on. Let them plan. Maybe those plans will fall.
“这将是一场伟大的战斗. She’s coming for the victory and I’m coming for the victory as well. She’s in for a big surprise.”
