Southpaw Bejenaru boxed on the Romanian national team for 10 years and was a nine-time national champion.

Here is What Bujaj said:

What do you know about Bejenaru and what are your thoughts going in?

I know he’s undefeated, 11-0 and a lefty, but I don’t believe he’s on my level. I think I’m a different class fighter and will be able to show it Cümə günü.”

What kind of fight do you expect?

I don’t really have any expectations. When I get in there, I make my adjustments, and then I start breaking him down.

What is the key to winning? What are your advantages?

My best advantage is my experience. I’ve fought 10 el əvvəl. This is his first time. I believe that I’m more skilled than he is, and I believe that I have more heart and just think I have the edge all around.

On fighting on ShoBox the first time?

I’m very excited and grateful for the opportunity that has been given me. I’m ready to go out and perform and show the world what I’m all aboutand that is being one of the top guys in the cruiserweight division.

Your opinion on the cruiserweight division?

The cruiserweight division is a good division with a lot of good fighters. I feel like it will get more exposure in the future because there are so many talented fighters and good fights that can happen. I’m looking forward to being a part some of the big fights and making some noise.

What would a win on ShoBox mean to you?

A win on SHOWTIME would be really huge, but mostly it would keep me going.

Are they making a mistake fighting you?

I don’t think he made a mistake, but I refuse to lose this fight. I’m gonna give it my all. He’s not on my level and I’m gonna prove it. I’m gonna fight my ass off.

On his slugfest with former world title challenger Wright?
I was winning the fight but I broke my jaw in the fourth round. I had a bad mouthpiece, a cheap one. I never knew mouthpieces needed to be fitted. The surgeon told me if I’d had a pro mouthpiece, I wouldn’t have had a problem.
I still believe anybody else would have quit in that fight. I was in a lot of pain, I couldn’t close my mouth because the jaw was broke, I was spitting out blood. But I hung in there despite the jaw.

I had him out on his feet in the last half-minute or so but the referee stopped the fight to give him time to tape up one of the laces on his glove. That gave him time to recover. If the ref hadn’t stopped it when he did, I feel I would have knocked him out.

On his career?

I had to work hard for my career. I don’t have a padded record. I do not have it as easy as most in their career. I don’t have a big-time promoter, and I’m not pampered. I’ve fought tough guys throughout my career but I’ve learned a lot and have no regrets. But I feel it’s time for me to step up. Mən qazanmaq sonra Cümə ShoBox haqqında, a lot of doors should start opening up me.
New Nickname?

I’ve been known as ‘Superman’my whole career but I’m thinking of changing it toSteel.The Wright fight proved a lot of me, and I learned a lot. Mən dayanmadı. I’m very tough and strong-minded, made of ‘steel.'
