As Granados prepares to meet four-division world champion Adrien “The Problem” Broner Sabado, Pebrero. 18, nang live sa showtime® (9 p.m. AT/6 p.m. PT) sa Cincinnati, Ohio, he talks about his struggles, the loss of his long-time friend Ed Brown and what lies ahead for him on fight night.
A tough Mexican-American from Chicago, Granados enters this fight on a five-bout winning streak, including his impressive stoppage over then unbeaten top contenderAmir ako noong Nobyembre 2015. Pinaka-kamakailang, the 27-year-old dominated Ariel Vasquez over eight rounds in July. With a win over Broner, Granados can position himself for his first career world title shot.
Below are excerpts from the interview:
MARK KRIEGEL: “What does this fight represent to you?"
ADRIAN GRANADOS: “Cubs just won. This is my own World Series, alam mo. It took me this long to finally get a big fight, but I got it. This is going to be my coming out. I know a lot of people don’t know who I am. Those who do know me, they know I come to fight.”
KRIEGEL: “One of the guys who does know you is Adrien Broner. You were in his camp for Marcos Maidana. What stands out to [you] about him?"
GRANADOS: “He’s a great fighter. Ibig kong sabihin, it’s no fluke that he is a four-division world champion.”
KRIEGEL: “Did he ever hurt you?"
GRANADOS: “Definitely, we are humans. He can crack. He just had that explosive power. He had 16-ounce gloves and it felt like he was hitting me with his bare fist. He just hits hard.”
KRIEGEL: “Did you ever hurt him?"
GRANADOS: “Definitely. I know I did. He may not admit it. Oo, I know I had him bloodied a couple times. I know I had him backing up a couple of times. You just know as a fighter when you crack somebody.”
On the passing of top prospect and friend Ed Brown…
GRANADOS: “I believe it was a Linggo. I was in a barbershop…They were like, ‘I heard about your boy.’ And I’m … trying to keep it together. I just called George, our coach. He told me, ’Yeah man, Ed has died. Ed is dead.’ And right there I broke down and cried and screamed to coach, ‘I’m going to win this fight. I’m going to win this fight for him.’”
“Somedays you are just feeling good. Then you got some days that you just feel like, alam mo, the worst ever…I’m just glad to God that I got out of that mind state and I’m back on a more positive path.” – Adrien Broner

Adrien BRONER: “You know, I did a year at that place. Fighting a case.”
KRIEGEL: “As a juvenile?"
BRONER: "Huwag, they tried me as an adult. Ako ay lamang 17 at the time… I missed on the pre-trials. Dumagundong. I beat it. I get out and I become Adrien Broner. My lifestyle is totally different. At pagkatapos ay, one day, I wake up back in the same place—I was in one of the same [cells] I was in when I did the year.”
KRIEGEL: “What did you tell yourself?"
BRONER: “I made it the best that I can make it. Pero, alam mo, when I was in there. I used to be by myself. I used to try to be by myself as much as possible. Pero, I told them to put me in general population—because they wanted to put me in protective custody. I can’t do 30 days like that… I helped the whole unit…I just made it a better place at the time. If somebody needs something to eat, I gave them something to eat.”
