ON FACING AN UNDEFEATED OPPONENT EARLY IN THEIR CAREER

 

 

 

 

 

Bates–“I want to be the best.  For that, I want to fight the best, and even though I have only 9 fights, I am ready to fight anyone.”

 

 

 

 

Aleem–“It doesn’t matter who is in front of me.  I have been looking to fight other undefeated guys, but they have been ducking me and not taking those fights for various reasons.  Bates accepted the fight, and it is going down on Friday.

 

 

 

 

 

ON FIGHTING IN PHILADELPHIA

 

 

 

 

 

Bates–“I have fought in Philly twice already, and this will be the 3rd time.  It is a great crowd there, and they have shown me love.  It makes me want to go in there and fight.”

 

 

 

 

Aleem–“To be able to fight in Philadelphia is a good accomplishment.  I have fought most of my fights in the Midwest, so it is a great opportunity to make some new fans.”

 

 

 

 

WHAT DOES A WIN DO FOR YOUR CAREER

 

 

 

 

Bates–“I am focused on this fight, and I only take 1 fight at a time.  After this win, I will talk to my manager and promoter and see what is next.  It’s going down, and someone is getting knocked out.  My fans can follow me on Instagram at _Dream_Crusher_Bates.

 

 

 

 

Aleem–“A Win does a lot.  It opens up other doors.  I have mentally put in a lot of hard work and focus to stay undefeated.  Not only winning, but looking good is a must.  You will not see any sloppy performance out of me on Friday.  April 6th, I am going in there for 8 hard rounds.  I will put everything on the table”
