He draws inspiration not only from Duran’s aggressiveness in the ring , but also from his tactical fighting style . The 24-year-old from Albuquerque , 牛米. has sparred with elite boxers such as Leo Santa Cruz , 傑西·瑪格達萊諾(Jessie Magdaleno), nonito Donaire主場, and Tomoki Kameda and assures he is more than prepared to withstand Tabanao on April 5. Tabanao , 25, made his pro debut in 2012 in his home country of the Philippines . He will make his television debut this week as he looks to move up the super bantamweight ranks . Tabanao won the WBO Oriental Featherweight Title in 2016 with a third-round technical knockout of Ibrahim Balla to then lose it to former 122-pound world champion Issac Dogboe . He suffered two consecutive defeats after losing to Dogboe but has admirably rebounded by winning his last four bouts . Here is what the fighters had to share ahead of their matchup : On what they know about their opponent : 獅子: “Tabanao is definitely not a pushover . 他有 17 勝 11 of those by knockout , so we definitely know that he can punch . I’ve seen a video of him , he likes to counter off the high guard . He’s fought a former world champion , Isaac Dogboe , and went the distance with him . 所以, he is a tough competitor for sure , but I think with my boxing and ring IQ , I can get the victory.” Tabanao : “Angelo Leo is a good fighter . We need to use a good strategy to win this fight—and we have it . We trained very hard targeting his weaknesses . He’s in for a surprise this Friday.” On what a win from this fight will do for their career : 獅子: “A win over Neil Tabanao will probably set me up for another 10-round fight and after that I will hopefully be competing on a world title eliminator . I think in the next two or three fights I’ll get a world title shot.” Tabanao : “I want to be recognized in the world of boxing . Leo is a step towards that goal . He doesn’t know what he’s in for.” On training camp : 獅子: “I had a very good training camp . I have a very good team . My dad , is my head trainer , he is the one in charge . Luis Chavez is my other trainer . He lives in New Mexico trainer and comes down when I fight . Steve Cartledge and John Sinclair are helping me with my strength and conditioning . We started increasing the rounds in my sparring and we are trying to get the conditioning up as well . I have been training super hard for this fight . I feel that I’m in tip-top shape.” Tabanao : “I had a good training camp . I trained with my coach Sonny Dollente at Mabuhay Boxing Camp at Dujali Davao del Norte in The Philippines . We worked hard on perfecting our strategy ; we are ready to counter whatever Leo may do on Friday night.” How does it feel to fight on national television ? 獅子: “It feels like a dream come true to fight on national television . I’ve been working so hard for this moment . 最後, I get to show everybody who I am and what better way to do it than as the main event on TV . I’m going to take full advantage of this opportunity . Everyone will see what I’m all about.” Tabanao : “It means a lot to me to be able to fight on national television . I hope this is the first of many televised fights . I want to become a renowned and successful boxer to be able help my family . I’m determined to do it.” # # # 欲了解更多信息: 訪問 www.sho.com/sports , www.mayweatherpromotions.com , 在Twitter上關注@ShowtimeBoxing, @SHOSports, @MayweatherPromo, @MayweatherPromotions , @mayweathersports and #ShoBox , 或成為Facebook上的粉絲在 www.Facebook.com/SHOSports 和 www.Facebook.com/MayweatherPromotions
