Here is what Porter and his father had to say Il-Ħamis:

 

Shawn PORTER

On training camp…

 

“Training camp is going great. It’s been hard work as always and nothing really different specifically for this fight. Obviously it is always a different game plan for a different fighter but that’s about it.

 

“I’m not making too many adjustments from my previous fight, just taking what I learn from each fight and take those learning experiences with you. Going into this fight we will definitely have some of our past experiences show up.

 

“It is getting closer. I feel it every day. It’s approaching and the excitement is brewing. The closer it gets the more excited and more focused that I get.

On being perceived as the underdog…

 

“I do not feel like I am coming in as the underdog. In order to be the champion, inti għandek li tħabbat il-champion. That is my outlook on this fight, not only to outpoint him but to make it very decisive and dominate the fight.

 

”My motivation is to prove the doubters wrong.

 

“I have faced a tougher opposition than Keith Thurman. I feel like that may work most to my advantage. I think that there will come points in this fight where I will put him up against things that he has never been up against. It is all about how he reacts to what I throw at him.

 

“My plan is to go in there and shake him up, make him uncomfortable and carry the fight just like that.

 

“I am ready and whatever Thurman has to bring. Jien lest għall 12 rawnds, I’m ready to knock him out. I’m ready to do whatever it takes to win. Jien lest.

On sparring with Thurman…

 

“We expect what we saw in sparring with him to show up in the fight. He moved around a lot when we sparred. There weren’t very many clean shots landed by either of us, but I know from sparring with him that I have to be aggressive and that I have to cutoff the ring.

 

“I would say that for the majority of this fight it is probably going to be me as the aggressor. He likes to bully guys at the beginning of the fight to wear them down to feel himself out.. We’re expecting him to move a lot more against me.

 

“We’re going to be aggressive, we’re going to be smart, we’re looking beyond this fight.

“In my last fight I didn’t get hit very much and I am taking that same mindset and defense into this fight.

On being the next Floyd Mayweather Jr…

 

“I am expecting to beat Keith and be the guy that everyone looks at.

 

“When you go up against someone at a high level like this, you go up and you show out.

 

“As far as Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao, I think those faces are going away. The welterweight class is exciting and there’s going to be a new face on the top of that ranking. I’d like that face to be me.

 

“I don’t make any predictions; I just know I am going to win.

 

“I have been waiting for this fight since 2013. I had just gotten my title then and I could see the way his career was moving that there was a collision course. We didn’t know how long this fight would take to happen or when it would happen, but we knew it was coming.

 

“When I was told this fight was happening all I could think was ‘Ok, let’s do it’ and it took some time to make the fight happen but when we finally did our faceoff, it felt great to look him in the eyes and let him know ‘I’m coming after you.’

 

“For me to fight Keith it has always been something that was a part of my career, all business not personal. It was just something that I needed to do to get to where I want to be.

 

“Keith Thurman is a good fighter. Nothing really sticks out to me as something I should worry about. He’s a good athlete and a good boxer, but he is very beatable, he just hasn’t been beat yet.

 

“You’re only as good as you’re last competition. If you look at the Kell Brook fight, I was not as good as I should’ve been. Since then I am very good, but still I feel that you are only as good as your last fight until you prove otherwise.

 

“It is and isn’t personal. For Keith to be considered one of the top dogs in this weight class, it is personal to me to beat him and reign over him. Other than that, it is all business.”

 

KEN PORTER

On being his son’s trainer…

“Because I have the history of working with a lot of top-level amateurs who have moved on to the professional level, I think that Shawn sees that in me as an edge.”

 

On his history with Keith Thurman…

 

“Naf lilu tajjeb ħafna. I’ve had opportunities to work with him in the amateurs. I’ve had opportunities to work with him in the pros. I’ve worked in his corner in an amateur fight before, I’ve worked in his corner in a pro fight.

 

“Keith knows Shawn, they’ve sparred about 30 rawnds. He knows speed and won’t come in the ring trying to land a significant shot from the beginning. If he’s throwing that punch, he’s probably running the other direction at the same time.

 

“I would challenge [Thurman] to come in the ring and fight, but I know he’s going to fight. I know he will try to outbox us and try to land a slick and unexpected punch. Anyone can land a shot on you, that happens, but it’s what you do after the punch that counts.

 

“We’re looking forward to trading punches, boxing with him, slugging with him. We’re looking for a fight.”

On what it will take to win this fight…

 

At this point in time, there’s going to be a lot of adjustments that have to be made, and I can’t just determine what it’s going to take to do it, but I know it’s going to take everything – speed, quickness, qawwa, aggressiveness, kondizzjonament, making adjustments mentallyit’s an intellectual fight.

Imwieled fl Guadalajara, Jalisco, Messiku u l-ġlieda out ta Downey, Calif., Mares won his first title in 2011 when he beat Joseph Agbeko to win the bantamweight crown. He continued his rise up the pound-for-pound list with wins over Anselmo Moreno and Daniel Ponce De Leon to win world titles at super bantamweight and featherweight. The 30-year-old won three straight fights leading to a massive showdown with Leo Santa Cruz last August. Mares showed the same explosiveness that made him a multiple division world champion in a thrilling Fight of the Year candidate that he lost by decision. The always-exciting Mares will enter the ring for the first time under the tutelage of renowned trainer Robert Garcia and strength coach Luis Garcia as he looks to work his way towards another world title.
The veteran Montiel won his first world title in 2000 over Isidro Garcia and went on to have title-winning performances over Pedro Alzacar, Ivan Hernandez, Z Tappijiet, CISO Morales u Hozumi Hasegawa. Imwieled fl Sinaloa, Messiku, Montiel rode an eight-fight win streak heading into his October world title shot against Lee Selby. Montiel’s aggressive style frustrated Selby but it was not enough for him to grab a title in his fourth weight class. The 36-year-old has an opportunity to get back in the mix for a world title with a victory over Mares.

DEVON ALEXANDER
“Dan kamp ġie kollha dwar jkollna affarijiet dritt. I kellha tagħmel ċert mentalità tiegħi kien dritt. Jitilfu mhijiex għażla aktar. Fil telf tiegħi għal Amir (Khan), ma kienx xi ħaġa li hu neċessarjament għamilt biex jagħmlu me jitilfu. T-telf kollu li stajt kellhom I think I setgħet daqstant faċilment rebaħ dawk tissielet. Din hija logħba mentali, u I ma kienx hemm mentalment għal dawk tissielet.
“I kellhom jeħles mill-distrazzjonijiet madwar camp li kienu qed iżommu lili milli jiffoka kompletament fuq il-ħidma fuq naħa u kemm hu importanti boxing huwa għalija. I kellhom jiffukaw u mbagħad jerġa 'jiffoka fuq kemm dan ifisser għalija. Kulħadd jeħtieġ li reprogram ruħhom darba fil-waqt biex jgħinek tiftakar x'hemm importanti.
“Naf Aron Martinez li jkun ser jiġi ġlieda. Jaf rekord tiegħi u li stajt imsawta wħud mill-aqwa. Hekk hu jaf li għaddej biex tkun iebsa għalih, u jien ċert hu ser iġibu l-aħjar tiegħu fil-ring miegħu, iżda mhux se jkun biżżejjed. Meta jien iffukat bħal dan ħadd ma jista 'taħbit me.”
Aron MARTINEZ
“Stil tiegħi huwa għall-ġlieda kontra u nisperaw hu stands u l-iskambji miegħi, imma jekk ma għandna pjan logħba tajba għall-kaxxa lilu. Nafu hu Boxer hekk jien pretty żgur li hu li aħna ser tara.
“Għandi biex jieħu kura ta 'Alexander. I tixtieq li tagħti ġlieda tajba u mbagħad mur fuq tissielet akbar. Ninsab hawn biex jiġġieldu min dawn jitqiegħdu quddiem lili. Jien lest għall-ġlieda kontra xi ħadd.
“Persuna waħda I ma jkunux sodisfatti wieħed li ma naħsibx I rebaħ il-ġlieda Robert Guerrero, iżda li l-passat. Nemmen I taħbit lilu, imma hija boxing u jien lest għall-ġlieda kontra mod tip differenti ta 'ġlied.
“Huwa ħass tajba knock stabbiliti Guerrero għaliex kulħadd tissottovaluta qawwa tiegħi. I ġġieldu ħafna guys qawwija u ħadthom ħassew puntelli tiegħi. Aħna ferrovija li kaxxa jew kummerċjali daqqa.”
LEE SELBY
“Ninsab verament eċċitati. Dan huwa l-ewwel difiża titlu dinja tiegħi u huwa kontra sfida iebsa li guys aktar ma tieħu. Mhuwiex rebħa faċli, speċjalment miegħi jkollhom jiġu barranin.
“I għażilt foe formidabbli u jekk I taħbit Guy bħalu u ħarsa tajba, għandu jgħolli l-profil lejl tiegħi.
“I ma verament jistudja l-ġellieda, I biss tixtieq tkun taf ftit dwar l-istil tagħhom. Montiel tista 'tagħmel kemm, he doesn’t have a typical style. I like to keep it simple because you don’t want to prepare for one thing and then have your opponent come out doing something different.
“Montiel huwa zgħir big imma jien kont qed ma 'lottijiet ta' punċers tajba. Stajt imsawta bosta guys unbeaten u I jkollhom tagħbijiet ta 'esperjenza għall-età żgħira tiegħi.
“Jien użati biex joħorġu hawn għal kampijiet ta 'taħriġ u safejn ma jkollhomx l-vantaġġ sapporters lokali, Stajt rebaħ titli fil folol ostili quddiem u għalhekk mhux se tkun problema.
“I think jien hemm mal-aqwa fid-diviżjoni. Irrid għall-ġlieda kontra l-guys fuq u naħseb jekk niġi rebħa kbira u ħarsa tajba hawn, I ser tkun fit-taħlita.
“B'dawn tissielet qegħdin fuq T.V. ħielsa, aktar nies jiksbu biex tara lili u l-profil tiegħi se jinbidlu malajr sakemm I do dak li jien kapaċi.”
Fernando Montiel
“I onestament nemmen li (Selby) għażel il-Guy ħażin għall-ġlieda kontra. I kellna tħejjija kbira għal din il-ġlieda. Ix-xogħol kollu ġiet stabbilita fil. Huwa biss għażlu l-Guy ħażin jiddebuttaw Istati Uniti tiegħu kontra.
“I kien kuntent ħafna meta smajt li konna se ġlieda fil Arizona. Hemm ħafna Messikani hawn, so I know I ser ikollhom ħafna ta 'nies lura lili nhar l-Erbgħa. Huwa ser jkun kbir għall-ġlieda kontra hawnhekk.
