Here is what the fighters had to say Thursday:

“I got a chance to size him up today. I saw how tall he is. Picking my spots – seeing where I have to go. After looking at him, I know he’s coming to fight. I’m expecting a war.

“Like all Argentine fighters, I know he’s got that hunger to prove he’s worthy of this big opportunity and make the most of it.

“The weigh-in is tomorrow and I’m just ready to fight. I’m focused and the fans can expect to see me leave everything in the ring like always.

“I’ve seen some tape on him. He’s one of those guys that is durable. A durable tall, lanky guy. His height is going to help him.

“I am expecting a tough fight for sure. This is like a world title shot for him. I don’t know what he is going to bring to the table and that is exciting for me.”

“This is the biggest fight of my career. It is very important. I have to go out there and put on a great show.

“I want to go down the same path as Marcos Maidana and Lucas Matthysse. They were given great opportunities in their careers and took advantage of them. I am going to take advantage of this opportunity.

“This is an opportunity to learn. Every fight and fighter is different. I have watched Guerrero fight, but every fighter is different. I have a gameplan to beat him.

“I am well prepared. I came here to fight. I am prepared to go the distance. I am going to throw a lot of punches, move around and be ready to get the decision.”

“I’m very excited to fight on Saturday night against Freddy Hernandez.

“With two Mexican warriors in the ring, the fans will be the true winners.

“The fans have always been great to me and I can’t wait to put on a performance for them.

“Right now I’m only focused on Freddy Hernandez then we will see who I can fight next.”

“I’m anticipating a really great fight. I’m prepared, he’s prepared. It’s going to be a battle.

“Fans can expect someone that will step into the ring with attitude and bravery. I’m a guy that doesn’t hold back and Angulo better be ready.

“What’s my secret weapon? Chocolate cake.

“I’m just ready for this fight. I worked hard and any time two Mexicans get into the ring, it’s fireworks.”

“I had a different experience with the Olympics. I missed the trials. I was taking time off from boxing. I lost the passion for it a little bit and I took some time off, but I was able to fight for a spot on the team, and I wont every fight I was in leading into the Olympics.

“I am excited for this fight. I trained really hard. Sometimes you have to take chances. I am ready to be aggressive and I am ready to change up my style in order to counter him.

“I know this is going to be a tough fight. It is going to be my toughest fight to date. It is important for me to take a step up and show the world what I can do.

“I appreciate my fans for sticking with me. Without fans, there would be no boxing. I appreciate my fans and I want to go out there on Saturday night and give them a great show.

“Our fight is going to steal the show. I think its really competitive and exciting. We’re hungry. We came here to execute the game plan and win. It is going to be explosive.

“We trained hard. This is a big opportunity. This is a change-up fight for me and my team. We are focused – its tunnel vision until Saturday. On Spike you’re going to see that after our fight, he won’t be undefeated anymore.

“This is definitely the biggest fight of my career. It is going to open up big doors for me.

“My parents are big boxing fans. I watched boxing all my life. The minute I walked into the boxing gym, I never looked back.

“I don’t put any pressure on myself. We are going to execute the gameplan, win and represent the Bronx.”
