Claressa Shields:

“I started boxing at age 11 and all I really wanted was an opportunity. This is one of those big opportunities.

 

“Her having 124 professional rounds doesn’t mean anything to me. Her being 15-8 mit 6 KOs doesn’t scare me either. But I am glad she took the fight and didn’t pull out.

 

“She’s a challenge and, auf Papier, she’s not supposed to be someone that I can just walk through. But I’ve been in training camp for three months and I had a great training camp.

I’m not going to let her beat me in front of my family. I’m not going to let her beat me in front of my nephews and cousins and my mom and dad. I just don’t roll like that.

 

“If she doesn’t have the talent and skill to go six rounds with me, she will not go six rounds. So, I hope she had a very good training camp. I know I did.

Antonio Nieves:

“I trained and did everything I have to do. Ich bin bereit für den Krieg.

 

“Coming out of Cleveland, nobody gives us a chance. We have to fight for everything we get.

 

“I respect Potapov. Er ist ein guter Kämpfer. He said he’s going to take my belt? He’s going to have to take it from me. Ich bin hier, um zu kämpfen. I’m not going to just give it up. Come try and take it.

 

“When I get in there Friday, es ist alles Geschäft. I respect him – I don’t have any problems with him as a person.

 

“I’ve fought a lot of Russians and Europeans. They’re straight-up, come forward, and try to put on a lot of pressure. They bring the fight and I’m ready for that. I’m ready for anything he brings to the table.

 

“Anything can happen in a fight, but I’m focused and ready and I know what I have to do. I’ll be able to adjust to whatever he brings.”

 

Nikolay Potapov:

“I will be a much more aggressive version of myself for this fight. I trained to be very aggressive. I have a lot of surprises in store for Antonio Nieves.

 

“I learned a lot training at Kronk and I’m very ready. I had a great training camp and I really enjoyed living here in Detroit.

 

“In Russia, there is a traditional Russian style. Over here, it’s totally different. The American style is much more aggressive. I loved training with Javan SugarHill Steward at Kronk and learned a lot.”

 

Wesley Tucker:

“I come to fight every time and everybody knows when I fight, it’s fireworks.

 

“He may be from here, but Detroit is my home, zu. And I’m planning on winning here at home.”

“Wesley Tucker is coming to fight, but I’m home. You don’t let nobody take you at home. Das ist es.

 

“He may be in for a short night. Or a long one. We’ll see.”

 

James Gordon Smith:

“I’m knocking you out. I’m not here to play games. I’m coming straight for you. I bet you I knock you out.

 

“You can’t punch. What are you going to do?

 

“I’m coming to throw bombs, so I hope you trained for this because I’m going to knock that smile off your face. Your coach can’t fight for you.”

 

Joshua Greer, Jr.:

"Ich bin bereit. You’re getting knocked out. We didn’t come here to lose.

 

“This is a fight I’ve been waiting for. Wir sind bereit. Sowie Freitag, I hope he’s ready, auch."
