Adônis ”Super-homem” Stevenson – WBC e campeão mundial dos meio-pesados lineares:
”Bem-vindo a Québec City Thomas. Eu vi sua luta contra Edwin Rodriguez. Foi um bom desempenho com um belo nocaute. Quando eu vi aquela luta, Eu disse a mim mesmo que queria aquela luta com você. Eu sabia que ficaria motivado.”
”Eu sei que Williams bate forte e que ele tem um nome agora nos Estados Unidos, mas mantenho a mesma mentalidade do Kronk Gym que o Emmanuel Steward me ensinou: nós vamos para o KO. Também é o aniversário da minha filha e eu quero dar a ela um KO, Eu estou motivado. Isso vai ser emocionante…não pisque!”
Thomas ”Melhor cachorro” Williams – WBC #8 desafiante classificado meio-pesado:
”Você não sabe o que eu passei para estar aqui. Tweets, conversas e previsões não significam nada Sexta-feira noite…..fatos vão. Haverá um novo campeão.”
Eleider ”Tempestade” Alvarez – WBC #1 ranked challenger and WBC Silver light heavyweight champion:
”With only a 10-day notice, I am really happy to face a fighter of good caliber. Berridge é um cara duro que enfrentou nomes como Thomas Oosthuizen e Blake Caparello, mas me preparei muito para Chad Dawson. Estou pronto.”
Robert ”The Butcher” Berridge – New Zealand light heavyweight champion :
”Estou animado por estar aqui e enfrentar um boxeador sólido. Expect a good performance from me Sexta-feira.”
Yvon Michel – Presidente do GYM:
”The event is called ‘SHOOTOUT’ because of the aggressive style of Thomas Williams Jr, who fights like there is no amanhã, combined with the explosive power of Adonis Stevenson.”
”Williams is a clear and present danger but we are convinced that Adonis is well prepared and will succeed, so that we will all be happy Sábado morning while eating breakfast. We still have not seen his full potential yet.’
”The fight between Eleider Alvarez and Robert Berridge is really important for the rankings in the light heavyweight division. Alvarez is highly considered by all the independent rankings (The Ring, BoxRec) and Berridge was already in training before the withdrawal of Chad Dawson, because he was supposed to fight on HBO PPV last weekend before the bout was cancelled for administrative reasons. He is fearless and a hard hitter.”
