Here is what the workout participants had to say Thursday:

“Ite ahau nui. I’m already close to weight. I’m happy and eating up to five times a day. I feel strong and I’m ready for this fight.

“I have to look at this as really just another big fight. When you’re at the top, you try not to make too much of each fight. We know what’s at stake. I know that when I keep it simple, that’s when I perform best.

“Right now my body feels better than ever. I’m comfortable with everything that’s gone on in camp and I think you can see it in my body.

“I’ve always trained hard since the first day I came here as a child. That’s been instilled in me since a young age and it’s carried me throughout my career.

“Everything I do is for D.C. I’m trying to get as much recognition for this area the best way I can. That’s what we all strive for in this gym. This is the biggest one that’s been on the schedule for a while and I’m ready to bring it home.

“It gets easier and easier the more championship fights I’m in. I was in shape for all of them, but I definitely put more pressure on myself when I was young. I’ve improved each time and now I feel like I’m really at the perfect place in my career.”

“I have to make a statement. I never feel comfortable with a decision. I think that’s a good thing because I have to be special under the bright lights.

“Everyone knows I like to go to the body. You know I’m going to make him work so you can look out for me to break my opponent down on the January 20.

“Kua kua ahau mākutu ki te momo o whawhai mātanga i runga i te tau whakamutunga, me kua awhinatia ahau e ratou i roto i ara i kore i ahau i te whawhai. he hinengaro katoa Ring waikura. Ko te ki runga ki a koe ki te hoatu i te mahi i roto i.

“kihai i whiwhi ahau i nga whawhai e hiahia ana ahau, engari ka piri tonu ahau ki toku kēmu me piri ki toku mahi. E matau ana ahau ki te kītaki ahau, ka mahi mea i roto hoki ahau.

“e mohio ana ahau e aroha ana ahau i tenei takaro. e mohio ana ahau e pae hopea ka waiho e ahau hei toa ao. whakapono ahau i roto i toku heke mai me te rapu atu ahau ki whawhai nui.

“It’s inspiring to watch Lamont do his thing and succeed. He’s going to beat Errol Spence, even if people don’t believe it. I think he’s going to take care of business.”

“It’s been a long grind in camp for these guys. When I think back on how long we’ve been on this journey, I’m very proud of them. They were 9 a 10 when they first came into the gym.

“We don’t have the weight monster to deal with fighting at welterweight. Lamont is in a great place mentally and physically. I’m looking forward to an explosive fight.

“When you look at the Spence-Brook fight, early on Brook had a lot of success. Down the stretch Errol imposed his will and broke Brook down. I know Errol well and I’ve coached him. He has a strong will. He’s not great in one area, but he’s good in a lot of areas. This is a different kind of guy he’s facing. Heart is something Lamont is nowhere near short on. I think this might start off tactical, and then turn into a war.

“Taku mahi, ko te ki te haere i roto i reira ki te wahi o te mahere, engari te reira tonu e pā ana ki whakatikatika mo tatou. Ko nga mea katoa Errol hopoi mai ki te tepu, ka feruri tatou i te reira i roto i, me te hoatu mea katoa i roto i te nekehanga.

“Tenei wiki whakamutunga ko te rota o te mahere kēmu, me te mahi faaineineraa hinengaro. He rota o whawhai kore e ako'i te hinengaro. E koe ki te whakangungu i te ngakau noa atu pera atu i te tinana. E tatou ki te kia takatu ki nga tauira e.

“whakaaro ahau ki te haere Anthony i reira, me te e tona mahi i reira he he torutoru taitara wātea i 140-pauna, me e te he ara mo tatou. We want to get a strap around his waist and we’ll face anyone to get it.

“Lamont, along with Anthony, Gary Russell Jr., Jarrett Hurd and Gervonta Davis, have been holding down boxing in this area for a long time. It would be huge to bring this title home. There are a lot of young Lamont Petersons in this area who want to reach this level. It would be a beacon of light shining down and showing these people the way.”
