Martinez and Oquendo worked before the media at the Dorado Municipal Gym in Dorado, Puerto Rico. Both fighters completed a full training session with their respective trainers Raul Torres and Dennis Pantojas.
This is what the fighters had to say during Mondayās workout:
RomĆ”n āRockyā MartĆnez
“I’m preparing for a big fight on September 12. Everyone saw that the first fight against Salido was a true āWar.ā This time around, Iām planning to give my fans the same type of fight. I predict a non-stop action slugfest.
“My team and I are working and have been working really hard in training camp. I believe that we are doing everything that needs to be done. Iām in the best shape of my career and Iām planning to win once again, either by knockout or decision, but Iāll win.
“We have worked more on side-to-side and in-and-out movement. If I see him hurt early I’m going to finish him.ā
Raul Torres, Martinezās Trainer
“Rocky is a 100 percent prepared for [Orlando] Salido. I have no doubt that we will emerge victorious once again.
“[Orlando] Salido is a fighter that likes to go forward. He stands in front of you and he goes at it. Heās tough, but we are tougher. We are ready.ā
Jonathan Oquendo
“This is very important fight for me. This is my opportunity to put myself in the world title landscape. Iām not going to let this opportunity slip away from me.
“Jhonny Gonzalez is a veteran of 60 fights, so you canāt take him lightly. Preparation is key.
“This will be the first fight at 130 pounds for me and I can say that the training camp has been very good, better than expected.
āI’m feeling strong. I think this is a good weight for me, Iām comfortable because I don’t have to lose much weight and can train better.”
Dennis Pantojas, Oquendo’s trainer
“We have had a very good training camp. Jonathan [Oquendo] has not had any problems and heās right on weight that we want.
“I see Jonathan [Oquendo] more focused and stronger than ever. We are not only hitting the gym, we are also swimming a lot and that has helped him lots. ā
