CLARESSA ọta:

 

 

"Tori eweta a otutu ihe awakpo, a lot more fight than a lot of my previous opponents. Na akwụkwọ, ọ nwere mma malitegharịa nke ọ bụla onye iro m na-eche ihu na ike na-edi a mma agha.

 

 

 

"Onye ọ bụla underestimates m n'ihi m size. My etiti anya dị ka m na a 140 ma n'ezie na m na a 168. Onye ọ bụla na-aga n'ime a agha na-eche echiche na ha nwere ike imeri, but once that right hand lands everything changes. I’m going to go after her in the first round and get her out of there like Nikki Adler.

 

 

 

"M na-atụ anya m iro itinye mgbali, na iji ụfọdụ unyi si eme. O nwere ihe na ahụmahụ, ma ọ bụghị na ọtụtụ mgbe ị na-ekwu okwu nke ya na-amu amu ahụmahụ.

 

 

 

“She’s confident and she believes in herself. She thinks I haven’t earned my place yet. She doesn’t think I throw hard punches. Speed is power. She doesn’t get that.

 

 

 

"Nke a a ike mara ụlọikwuu, M n'ezie kewapụrụ onwe m. M na-emekarị-eme ka izu isii, a oge m mere asatọ izu. M na-agha kemgbe August otú ahụ ka m chọrọ inye onwe m ihe mmezi izu abụọ ka m maara na m bụ nke zuru okè udi.

Tori NELSON:

 

 

"Amaara m na m na-underdog, kama m na-ama esịn itoolu ndị mmadụ. Ọ bụghị gbatara otu knockdown ma dị ka a pro. Mgbe Claressa tụgharịa pro, M maara na m ga-aghaghị iche ihu ya emecha.

 

 

 

"A mmeri bụ ihe m bịara maka. I expect nothing different. I hope it would expose female boxing and not only open doors for me, ma ụmụ nwanyị ọzọ na-eti ọkpọ na-abịa mgbe m.

 

 

 

"M na-eche na ọ bụ ihe ndị ọzọ ụtọ na-ekiri a nwaanyị agha. Mgbe ndị inyom na-ama esịn, ha ga-esi nri azụ elu na-aga mgbe ya ọzọ. Mgbe ndị mmadụ na-kụrụ aka ala, ha na-amalite na-ezo n'ihi na ha achọghị ka kụrụ ọzọ. N'ihi ya, m na-eche na anyị kwesịrị ụgwọ ọnwa dị nnọọ ka ndị ikom.

 

 

 

"M na-agọzi n'ebe a, but I’m not a winner until I complete what I came here to do. And that’s win. The odds are definitely against me, ma m na-aga ujo ụwa.

 

 

 

“I want to take her into the deep waters. We don’t think she can beat us in a 10-round fight.

 

 

 

"Ha na-agaghị na-enye m ihe ọ bụla. I have to be a dog and go in there and win this fight. I’ve always been aggressive. Why change anything for her?"

 

 

 

Jesi HERNANDEZ

 

 

"M na-nnọọ na-agbalị ka na-eru nso a aha agha. N'ịga elu rankings na-isi ihe mgbaru ọsọ ugbu a, na m na na na ụzọ nke ziri ezi. A mmeri ebe a na a 10-gburugburu agha ga-ibu ọrụ m.

"Na-alụ ọgụ a southpaw bụghị a nsogbu n'ihi na m. M nwere ike ịgbanwee m stance, ma ọ bụghị ihe m na-eche banyere ma ọ bụ atụmatụ. Ọ dị ya nnọọ na-eme ndammana a ọgụ.

 

 

 

"M na mgbe kwere na onwe m, ọbụna mgbe m were oge. Na m kweere na m nwere ike na-azụ n'ime ya na-esi a n'elu larịị. The wins over two undefeated fighters did a lot for my confidence. I knew I could do it, ma ọ mere ka ndị ọzọ m bụ nke na m nwere ike mpi na n'elu larịị. "

 

 

 

Ernesto GARZA

 

 

"Na-amasị m na-ewetara nsogbu, and he’s a pressure fighter too. We’ll see who backs up once we start throwing punches.

 

 

 

“I like to face fighters who come forward like him so I think everything will work for me. I plan on applying the pressure, na-ya ike gwụrụ na nke ikpeazụ agba, ma na-ewere ya.

 

 

 

"Ọ nēche ka ịgbanwee, but I think that’s when he gets off-balance. He won’t bring anything I haven’t seen before.

 

 

 

“I’m fighting at my natural weight class this time. My last fight on ShoBox (megide undefeated Jon Fernandez) M na-alụ ọgụ a nnọọ elu ibu.

 

 

 

“I don’t think his height and reach will give me any issues. I’ve been working with a lot of guys in the gym who have similar size and style. We’re ready for anything.

 

 

 

“A win would be a great step for me and my career. All the doors would open up for us.”
