Tässä on mitä taistelijoita oli sanottavaa keskiviikko:

“I’m very excited to be fighting here close to Miami. This is a second home for Cubans and I’m really motivated to put on a great performance for the fans.

“Ismael Salas is one of the top trainers in the world and our whole team has been fantastic. We’re ready to get in the ring and fight.

I come prepared with a few strategies. I never stick to one game plan because us Cubans were taught to have a few up your sleeve so that you can adjust according to whatever presents itself to you in the ring.

“If we don’t get the knockout, then we are ready to go the distance. My team is prepared to go the distance if we have to, but also to give an entertaining fight.

“You’re going to see a new Rances Barthelemy in 2016.

“Älä missaa tätä taistelua. Get there early, because it might not go five. Get ready for a great night of boxing.”

“I want to give Rances props for stepping up and taking the fight. This is the beautiful thing about boxing, paras taistelevat paras.

“You have a two-time champion fighting a world champion that never lost his belt in the ring. That says it all right there. We’re two elite fighters. We’re both going for glory.

“No matter what anybody says today, it comes down to the action perjantaina.

“I’m in there with the same mindset no matter who I’m fighting. I’m coming in there to do what I do no matter what. It’s just another day for me.

“You’ll see a throwback fighter in there. I’m like the fighters from back in the day. I’m here looking for the victory. I don’t care how I get it and I can’t predict. But we want to have our hand raised.

“I’m coming to get what is rightfully mine. Älä unohda sitä.”

“I feel great and ready for Perjantai. I’m not worried about huomenna at all, we’re right on weight, so we’re just looking forward to stepping into the ring at this point.

“We’ve been in training camp for six months as we had a tentative fight date scheduled prior to this so I was already in the gym getting ready. We’re in the best shape.

“We have seen footage of him and saw he makes a lot of mistakes. We analyzed those defaults and are using them as a strategy against him. We’ve put those into practice and think we will be able to execute them to come out victorious at the end of the night.

“He’s not your typical Mexican warrior fighter, he’s the total opposite actually so we’re not worried about what he does.”

“I’m ready for this big opportunity and I’m ready to fight. This is a big card and it’s very exciting.

“I know what I have in front of me. Emmanuel Rodriguez is a good fighter, but he’s just another opponent to me.

“I’m well prepared and I believe I’m going to win this fight.”

“I’m thankful to have this stage to perform on. I’m glad the media could come out and get a sneak peek of what I’m going to bring Perjantai yö.

“The game plan is to go in there and look sharp, be slick, make adjustments and dictate the pace. He’s going to be uncomfortable because we’re going to dictate the pace. We’ll see if he can keep up.

“I’ve seen enough tape on, which wasn’t very much. I let my coaches breakdown the film and let me know what I need to do.

“This is my only job and I do it well. I’m not into getting ready, Pysyn valmis. We’re here to show out.

“I’ve had a great training camp. I worked hard and I’m ready to put on a show perjantainayö. I’m going to do what I always do in there.”
