Hieronder is wat de vechters te zeggen had:
RUSLAN Provodnikov
“As soon as I heard the name John Molina, I jumped on it. Molina fights with the type of style that people want to see. He brings the action.
"Juni 11 is another Fight of the Year-type fight. U kunt vuurwerk verwachten.
“People expect action fights when I get in the ring. I appreciate that SHOWTIME saw a value in what I can offer and I want to make sure that I don’t let them down.
“I’ve only seen one fight of his, and that was the fight with (Lucas) Matthysse. That fight shows the type of fighter he is.
“I think our styles are going to clash. The reason people love this is because it’s unpredictable. Nobody knows what’s going to happen on Juni 11. Nobody can even predict which way it’s going to go. We’re both punchers, we both go forward, we both fight in a risky style. I think that’s going to make this fight a fight that everybody should watch.
“The fight is already a huge motivation, but the fact that the Hall of Fame is the same weekend is definitely great. I’m definitely pleased to know that because hopefully one day I can be a part of that.”
JOHN MOLINA JR.
“We’re never say die fighters. We come forward. It’s literally like two trains that are going to collide. It’s a can’t miss fight.
“He’s a hell of a fighter. He has a big heart and a big will.
"Direct, my only focus is – and I know it sounds generic – but my only focus is on Ruslan Provodnikov. He deserves my undivided attention right now because he’s that kind of fighter.
“I have to prepare for someone that has a never say die attitude. He’s like a virus that will never go away. He’s a hell of a fighter – he has a big heart and a big will. It’s tough to beat a guy that wants to win.
“We’re going to give the fans a treat, a Gatti-Ward type fight. I expect nothing less. We can have a phone booth, we don’t need a big ring.
“The judges probably don’t even need to be there because we’re going to decide the fight ourselves.”
Demetrius Andrade
“Willie Nelson, he’s going to come in and he’s going to try and throw those power shots. He’s going to try to stomp me down and make a statement, but I’ve been doing this for too long. I’m just ready to be where I need to be, where I deserve to be, and that’s on the top.
“I’m not worried about ring rust. I stayed in the gym like a true champion should. I’m still young in the game so I don’t think I should have any problems seeing or ducking any punches.
“I’m confident and I know I’m the best 154-pounder out there and this fight right here is going to let people know that I’m back in business.
“Everybody knows the work that I’ve put in. The time is now and the time is coming.
“I’m ready to re-introduce myself to boxing fans and show them I’m the best 154-pounder in the world.
“After this fight with Willie Nelson, I plan on fighting the winner of Jermell Charlo and John Jackson and getting that WBC belt. En daarna, I want to face the rest of the division and prove I’m the best.”

Most recently Andrade, who is a consensus top-5 super welterweight, scored a second-round knockout over Dario Fabian Pucheta on October 17, 2015.

The southpaw Zlaticanin (17-0, 10 KO) was an accomplished amateur in Eastern Europe before making a statement in his U.S. debut with an impressive fourth-round TKO of previously undefeated Ivan Redkach in a 135-pound title eliminator last Juni 13op Showtime.
Two bouts prior to the win over Redkach, Dejan (pronounced “DAY-han) Zlaticanin (silent “z” – pronounced “la-ti-CAH-nin) earned a well-deserved 12-round split decision over hometown favorite and former two-division world champion Ricky Burns in 2014.
The 31-year-old Zlaticanin is an offensive-minded fighter who constantly pressures his opponents, buitenwerken hen en draagt ze naar beneden. Zlaticanin, van het Zuidoost-Europese land van Montenegro, will be making his first start in nearly 12 maanden.
The win over Redkach last June earned Redkach the WBC’s mandatory position at 135 pond. He was scheduled to face WBC Champion Jorge Linares in early 2016, but Linares pulled out of the bout with a broken hand. Due to the injury, the WBC has since named Linares their champion in recess, creating the opportunity for the vacant title shot.
The Italian Marsili (32-0-1, 14 KO) zal zijn 2016, U.S. and SHOWTIME debut. The undefeated southpaw has fought all but one of his professional fights in Italy, the lone exception a 2012 TKO of veteran contender Derry Matthews in Britain.

Provodnikov zoekt wraak in 2016 Provodnikov inferno wil nog een scheur in “Brandweerman” Bradley

Siberië, Rusland (November 12, 2015)– Na zijn dominante prestaties van het afgelopenZaterdag toen hij eerder stopte ongeslagen Jesus Alvarez Rodriguez, voormalig WBO junior weltergewicht kampioen, Ruslan Provodnikov is klaar voor een enorme 2016 Hij richt zich op de beste vechters op junior weltergewicht & weltergewicht.
Op de top van zijn lijst is WBO weltergewicht kampioen, Timothy Bradley.
Provodnikov stopte Rodriguez in 4 rondes in het belangrijkste evenement op de 7th Edition Monte-Carlo Boxing Bonanza Night of Champions en is op zoek naar de grootste vis te bakken als hij zich aan op het nieuwe jaar.
De strijd was zijn eerste reis met de nieuwe trainer Joel Diaz. “Dit was een goede overwinning voor mij. Ik voelde me zelfverzekerd en mijn verdediging al beter gevoeld. Ik weet dat in het volgende kamp dingen bij elkaar komen voor mij en training Joel's. Mijn doel voor volgend jaar is om mijn verliezen voor Lucas Matthysse wreken, Mauricio Herrera, Timothy Bradley en Chris Algieri!”, Said Provodnikov. Said Diaz, “Dit was een gevecht om hem terug te krijgen na de zware gevechten. We had a strategy of working on defense and body punches. He did a little more of that then he did in previous fights. It will take a couple of fights to get him to where I want.”
“Na de strijd die hij zei dat hij wilde zijn verliezen te Matthysse verlossen, Bradley en Herrera. Dat vind ik leuk, en er zijn andere tegenstander zoals Danny Garcia. That would be a great fight because they are both heavy hitters.
Maar Bradley is bovenaan de lijst als de rematch 2013 Gevecht van het jaar en zou de meest wenselijke gevecht voor de boxing fans.
Bradley, die werd opgeleid voor twee decennia onder Diaz, won ook op zaterdag als hij stopte Brandon Rios in 9 rondes onder leiding van de nieuwe trainer Teddy Atlas.
“Teddy is een geweldige motivator, en hij brengt veel energie om de hoek.”
Een van de memorabele momenten uit Zaterdag Bradley – Rios ontmoeting was een pittige Atlas tirade waar hij werd vergelijken Bradley een brandweerman.
“Nou als Bradley is een brandweerman, het is Ruslan dat het inferno brengt aan de strijd. If they rematch it would be a tough fight. After the first fight, iedereen weet dat Bradley was littekens van de wedstrijd. Bradley was damaged and in a rematch, dat is wat Bradley zou denken over, en hij zou niet worden scherpgesteld. Ruslan would take the initiative and knock him out”
“Ruslan zag er geweldig. The collaboration between Ruslan and Joel Diaz is going well,” zei Provodnikov's promotor Artie Pelullo.
“Deze overwinning zet alles voor een grote 2016. He indicated to me that he wants to avenge his losses and also seek the biggest fights. I think he is in prime position to do just that. I expect to have him in a big fight in the first quarter of 2016. “
