“The cream always rises to the top. I’m going to show that I’m the best 154-pounder in the world.”
“It’s been frustrating (16-month layoff). This is something I’ve been doing since I was six and not to do it has been tough. I’ve tried to stay positive, working hard in the gym to stay in shape, but sparring in a gym is different than being in a fight when your opponent is trying to take your head off. Oktobro 17Th, people will see what I’m truly made of.”
“I have other ways of making a living but I love what I do every day…box! This is a life-changing business. I’m very happy to get back in the ring October 17Th. “I’m going to make a statement that I’m the future of boxing.”
“The WBO and WBA International titles are on the line in this fight. They took my (WBO world) title and it’s vacant right now. The reason I took this fight is to get ranked in the top 15 and fight for a world title.”
“Mia oponanto (Dario Pucheta) has come all the way from Argentina to win. This is a tough business and to be 20-2 takes a lot of heart and guts. This is an opportunity for to make a statement. He’s hungry and believes because a win over me will make a name for him.”
“I’ve had some bumps in the road and it took a year to get settled. I haven’t suffered any damage in the ring. Mi sentas bonan. The fans are going to say that they need to see a lot more of Demetrius Andrade.”

Below is what DeGale and Bute and the executives had to say marde at the Videotron Centre in Quebec City and Thursday at Arsenal’s Emirates Stadium in London:
JAMES DEGALE
“I am excited to face an elite fighter like Lucian, who was champion for five years.
“He is still a good boxer and he told me he wants the belt back. But trust me; I am too young, too fresh and just too good.
“The way I’m feeling, mentally and physically, I’m in fantastic shape. It’s going to be very hard to beat me.
“My journey is only just starting, his is about to end in November.
“The way I am training, nobody will beat me. You can see my character just by the fact I accepted to come here and take that fight. Be ready for a furious and spectacular fight.
“There is no one in this division who can beat me. I’m willing to box anyone. I want to fight all the big fighters in the biggest fights.”
Lucian Bute
“I am really happy to be back in Quebec City. Some of my best memories are here. I won four fights here. Six years ago, Nov. 28, 2009, the same day I will fight James DeGale, I knocked out Librado Andrade. And I also defeated Glen Johnson En Kebekia Urbo.
“DeGale is a great champion, but to come here to face me in my hometown, antaŭ 15,000 Homoj, it won’t be easy for him. I am the challenger, Mi estas la malfavorato, and he is the champion, but the pressure is on him.
“The past is in the past. I feel fresh. I have a new team and different people behind me. This opportunity is huge for me.
“I had the belt for five years and on Nov. 28, I will be the new world champion. I am very confident about this.
“I dealt with this when I faced Carl Froch En Anglio.
“My dream is to regain my world title. I always believe in myself and in my tools. The belt will remain in Quebec.”
HOWARD GRANT (Bute’s head trainer)
“My job is simple: I have to prepare Lucian to win the title. British fighters were always dominant in the 160-pound and 168-pound divisions.
“DeGale is explosive, he won at the Olympic Games in 2008, and a World Championship in the United States, but that won’t work Nov. 28.?
JIM MCDONNELL (DeGale’s head trainer)
“James is different. He did everything on the rough path: being an Olympic champion, winning the British title in his ninth fight and becoming world champion in the United States. The more pressure he has, the better he is.
“I never knew anybody like him before. He can’t be intimidated. James respects Bute, but they say when you win a title, you get better. It will be frightening.”
JEAN BÉDARD
?It’s going to be a fun night. I have two great defining moments in my 10 years in the boxing world. The first one was Oct. 19, 2007, when Lucian became world champion live on TVA (Quebec TV channel) Kaj Nov. 28, 2009, in front of a jam-packed crowd of 16,000 fans at the Québec Coliseum when Lucian beat Librado Andrade. Nun, six years later, we are ready for a historic date.”
YVON MICHEL
“No champion in Quebec’s boxing history ever regained a world title after losing it. The task will be hard because DeGale is very skilled and brave. He won his title in the United States, far from his home. Ankoraŭ, we root for Lucian Bute 100 Procento. We have a 12,000-seat stadium configuration in the brand new Vidéotron Centre and we had already brought more people before for some of Lucian’s fights. We are convinced that Quebec’s boxing fans will also root for Lucian.”
Tickets will go on sale this Sabato, Oktobro 10 at the Vidéotron Centre box office, Sur www.ticketmaster.ca, #?E GIMNASTIKEJO (514) 383-0666, ĉe InterBox (450) 645-1077 aŭ ĉe Ĉampiono bokso klubo (514) 376-0980.
