El evento es promovido por TGB Promotions. Breazeale vs. Wallin se promociona en asociación con Salita Promotions.

Esto es lo que dijeron los participantes de la conferencia de prensa el jueves:

Adrien Broner

"He tenido tantas actuaciones fantásticas y espero con ansias otra gran actuación el sábado por la noche. Sé que viene a pelear, está invicto y tiene hambre. Cualquiera que pelee con un nombre como Adrien Broner siempre entrenará con su mejor habilidad, así que no lo veo como una pelea en la que simplemente entro y destruyo a este tipo.. Voy a hacer lo que tengo que hacer para conseguir la victoria: lucir bien dentro y fuera del ring..

"Siento que volveré a ser campeón mundial, de nuevo, una y otra vez. Hasta que realmente termine con el boxeo. Sí, Me tomé dos años de descanso del boxeo, Me retiré y dejé que mi cuerpo sane y descanse. Siento que tengo lo que se necesita para ganar más campeonatos en diferentes categorías de peso, así que eso es lo que voy a hacer..

"Al final del día, él está aquí por mí y todos en esta sala están aquí por mí, así que eso es especial. Sábado noche, lo único que va a ser especial es este grito que estoy dando. El sabrá entonces. Santiago aún no ha recibido un puñetazo. Cuando golpeas a alguien, ellos hablan diferente. No va a hablar así después del sábado..

"Pasé por muchas cosas, honestamente. Un día, Me acabo de despertar y dije, "Ya terminé". Para cambiar, tienes que hacer un cambio o te verás atrapado haciendo lo mismo. Corté muchas cosas, Dejé de hacer muchas cosas y me recuperé. Fue un largo camino para llegar a donde estoy hoy y ahora estoy aquí.

"Escucha, si tienes un cinturón, solo aférrate a ello. Vengo a barrerlo todo; AMB, OMB, CMB, FIB. Vengo a buscarlos a todos.

"Solo espera un espectáculo increíble. Sé que viene a pelear, El es de puerto rico, vienen a luchar. Pero no hice todo este entrenamiento para subir al ring y no pelear.. Entonces debe saber que si viene a una guerra, él también va a estar en una guerra. Será mejor que venga con mucho equipo porque yo tengo mucho equipo conmigo. Estoy listo para ponerlo todo en juego. No se como se siente, pero estoy dispuesto a morir en el ring. Estoy dispuesto a arriesgar mi vida. No sé qué tan lejos está dispuesto a llegar. Podría empezar a pensar en sus hijos, nietos, tías, sobrinas, No lo sé.

"Desde que tenía seis años, Nunca tomé un descanso del boxeo. Entonces eso es lo que hice. Ahora, Me estoy perdiendo el boxeo de nuevo, Regresé y volveremos a hacerlo el sábado por la noche.

"Ha sido un campo de entrenamiento increíble. Quizás uno de los más duros porque tuve que volver al ritmo, volver y perder todo ese peso y trabajar tan duro como yo. No quería una pelea fácil, así que elegí a un tipo como Jovanie Santiago porque sé que me presionará y sacará lo mejor de mí.. Eso es lo que yo se de el. Él es un buen boxeador, un luchador invicto, y no esta aqui para perder.

"Sé que mucha gente no conoce a estos tipos, pero tipos como Jovanie pueden ser muy peligrosos porque mucha gente no lo conoce. yo se mejor, el viene a pelear, es un buen luchador e invicto, así que tengo que quedarme en mi juego A. Voy a conseguir la victoria, lo que sea que se presente. Si el nocaut se presenta, Me estoy tomando. No te pagan por las horas extra, pero definitivamente voy a ir a buscar mi victoria..

“El objetivo general es superar esta pelea primero. En el boxeo, no puedes mirar más allá de ningún oponente. No me importa cómo se ve todo en el papel. En el boxeo, estás a solo un golpe de un nocaut y eso está en ambos extremos. Entonces, lo que tengo que hacer es entrar, conseguir mi victoria, levantar mis manos primero, y luego iremos a la mesa de dibujo. Entonces el plan para mí es obtener mi victoria el sábado por la noche.

“Todo sucede por una razón y creo que este será un gran comienzo. Como dije antes, No quería una salida fácil. Podría haber tomado una presa fácil, pero no voy a hacer eso. Amo la competencia. Quiero que alguien me ponga a prueba, saca lo mejor de mí, y por eso elegí a Jovanie Santiago. El sábado por la noche va a ser una gran pelea ".

JOVANIE SANTIAGO

“Esta es una gran oportunidad para mí. Sábado noche, Voy a mostrarte quien soy. Voy a demostrarle a Adrien Broner que estoy listo para pelear.

"Lo que sea que Broner traiga a la mesa, Voy a vencerlo el sábado por la noche. Estoy listo para esta pelea. En este punto, Broner podría pensar que tiene una pelea fácil, pero está equivocado. Estoy aquí para luchar, Estoy aquí para ganar. Estamos listos.

“Este sábado por la noche va a ser una guerra y va a ser una victoria para Puerto Rico. Estoy listo para morir en la fila como decimos en Puerto Rico.

“Sé que esta es la pelea más grande de mi carrera. Es un gran nombre y voy a intentar ganar para Puerto Rico. Ganar esta pelea sería lo mejor que me ha pasado en mi carrera y mi nombre se haría mucho más grande en el mundo del boxeo..

"No tengo nada que perder. Adrien Broner tiene todo que perder el sábado por la noche, así que será mejor que traiga su juego A contra mí.. Una victoria para mí me catapultaría a una oportunidad por el título mundial.

“AB siempre hace un espectáculo, así que el sábado tengo que estar listo para montar mi propio espectáculo contra AB. Es un buen campeón pero he entrenado muy duro en el gimnasio y lo voy a demostrar el sábado..

"Creo que Adrien Broner cree que soy una pelea fácil para él, pero se equivoca en eso. Creo que Broner va a soltar sus manos porque me ve como un oponente débil.. Definitivamente me está pasando por alto.

"Lo que sea que Broner traiga a la mesa, Voy a estar listo para eso. Si se mueve, Me voy a mover con el. Si quiere pelear, Voy a pelear. Lo que sea que haga, Lo haré mejor que él ".

DOMINIC Breazeale

"Es cierto que eres tan bueno como tu última pelea, pero al mismo tiempo siento que esta es mi fiesta de presentación. Se siente como mi debut profesional. He estado fuera durante mucho tiempo y tuve un gran campo de entrenamiento, así que estoy listo para el sábado por la noche..

“Después de mi última pelea contra (Deontay) Wilder, me tomé unos días para digerir la pérdida y luego volví al gimnasio 10 días después. No quería insistir ni dejar que me molestara. Realmente no había una sensación de urgencia, pero sabía que iba a haber cambios y sabía que tenían que hacerse en las próximas semanas. Me concentré en mi alimentación y mi entrenamiento y, por supuesto, el mayor cambio de todos fue mi cambio de entrenador de Virgil Hunter a Abel Sanchez.

“Cambiar a Abel y entrenar en Big Bear ha sido enorme y algo que desearía haber hecho hace años. Abel tiene algo escrito en la pared que dice, "Imagina qué pasaría si". Y me imagino "qué pasaría si" todas las noches. Como dije, Ojalá hubiera hecho esto hace un año, pero mi condicionamiento y mi confianza están en su punto más alto.

"Algunas personas podrían haber pensado que hubiera querido volver allí con un pusilánime, pero siempre quise pelear con los mejores. Vi la pelea de Otto Wallin y la actuación que dio contra Tyson Fury y luego Travis Kauffman. Cuando me llamaron la atención sobre el nombre, Salté por encima. Sabía que el mundo del box respetaría la lucha contra mí y Otto..

"No creo que Otto haya estado allí con una gran, fuerte, chico atlético como yo. Mike Tyson lo dijo mejor: "Todo el mundo tiene un plan de juego hasta que te dan un puñetazo en la boca" ".

OTTO WALLIN

"Todos quieren preguntar sobre mi pelea con Tyson Fury y olvidan que he hecho mucho más que eso.. Pero fue una gran actuación y entiendo que la mayoría de la gente no me había visto pelear antes., fue una gran pelea y fue mejor de lo que la mayoría de la gente pensaba. Estoy un poco por encima de eso ahora. Quiero seguir adelante. Es bueno seguir adelante. Es bueno estar en SHOWTIME peleando con Breazeale, quien tiene un buen nombre. Así que con suerte con esta pelea, Lo venzo y sigo adelante para que la gente vea que soy capaz de vencer a los buenos..

"Creo que soy más completo que Breazeale. También, no puedes olvidar que en realidad mido 6 '6 ", 240, entonces no soy tan pequeño. Sé que mucha gente me mira como si fuera más pequeño, pero no soy tan pequeño. Con eso se dice, Soy más inteligente, tengo un gran equipo, hemos tenido un gran campamento y yo también soy muy bueno. Soy más rápido que Dominic, Tengo mejor juego de pies, mejor defensa, y mejor defensa. Así que tengo que traer todo eso ahí, hago lo que se me da bien y estaré bien.

"Creo que una victoria me ayudará a superar a Fury. Pero también pondrá mi nombre ahí arriba, para solidificar mi lugar allí. No creo que esta pelea me dé una oportunidad por el título, pero será una buena oportunidad en el camino..

"Creo que puedes esperar una buena pelea, dos buenos luchadores. Dominic probablemente siente que tiene un punto que demostrar y probablemente saldrá y será agresivo e intentará perseguirme.. Estoy seguro de que no tendré que buscarlo y estoy listo para eso.. La gente puede esperar una pelea emocionante y una buena noche de boxeo..

"Dominic es un tipo agresivo, así que tengo que ser inteligente. Tengo que ser quien soy y prepararlo y creo que podré hacerlo..

"No siento mucha presión. Solo tengo que ser yo mismo y tengo que hacer lo que hago, en lo que soy bueno. Esta es una gran oportunidad para mí, así que trato de ser positivo.. Esperé mucho tiempo para llegar a este nivel, Finalmente estoy aquí y no voy a volver ".

Robert Easter, JR.

"He estado en algunas peleas, pero realmente nunca he mostrado mis verdaderas habilidades de boxeo. Me, Mike Stafford y mi padre (Robert Pascua, Sr.) solo trabajé en el boxeo y siendo yo mismo.

“Durante COVID realmente me decepcionó y estar fuera todo ese tiempo sin saber realmente cuándo recibiría esa llamada para volver al ring.. Así que realmente tenía que concentrarme y tenía que estar listo cada vez que recibía esa llamada telefónica.. Me motivó. Más, Tuve que vigilar a mi hijo y asegurarme de que estaba bien.. Así que realmente me dio un impulso diferente. Esta pandemia realmente hizo retroceder todo, pero estamos más que listos.

"Definitivamente 140 es el lugar para mí en este momento. Ese es el futuro. Nos preocupa el presente derecho y la captura de este título en 140.

"Solo estoy preocupado por mí y por mostrar mis habilidades y todo lo que hemos trabajado en los entrenamientos y en este campamento".

RYAN MARTIN

"Luchamos en los aficionados y él me ganó, así que definitivamente hay un pequeño chip en mi hombro allí".. Quiero vengarme de él y hacerle saber que ya no soy un niño de 16 años..

“Esta pelea me va a poner de nuevo allí para estar en posición de pelear con cualquiera de los campeones o contendientes principales de la división.. Esta pelea definitivamente se va a robar el show.

"Estoy concentrado. Mi mente esta clara. Esta pelea de aquí me emociona. Somos dos luchadores de Ohio con historia, tengo un chip en mi hombro. Va a ser una pelea llena de acción y la traeré. Realmente no me sorprende que Easter diga que no ve mucha dificultad en pelear conmigo. Esperaba que dijera eso. Pascua es Pascua.

"Va a ser muy importante que deje que mis manos vayan contra la Pascua. Siento que esta pelea va a tener mucha acción. Tengo la mente clara. Estoy listo. Sábado noche, vamos a entrar y dejarlo volar.

"Las palabras no pueden explicar lo emocionado y ansioso que estoy por esto, para decirte la verdad. Estoy tan listo para el sábado por la noche. Estoy listo para terminar el pesaje con, Métete bajo las luces el sábado por la noche y haz un espectáculo. Va a ser una pelea entretenida. Mucha gente dice muchas cosas sobre mí en base a la pelea de Josh Taylor.. Así, es como si estuviera luchando contra dos cosas.

"La Pascua solo tiene que venir con ella el sábado por la noche. Siempre supe que esta pelea con Robert Easter iba a suceder. No se porque, pero siempre supe que nos volveríamos a encontrar en el ring. Creo que es porque ambos estábamos en Ohio, él estaba en Toledo y yo en Cleveland, y siempre pensé que tendría esta pelea.. Simplemente no pensé que sucedería así en una burbuja ".

Here is what the press conference participants had to say Wednesday in Las Vegas:

MANNY PACQUIAO

“I feel so blessed and happy because of the excitement around this fight. It’s come from the fans here in the U.S. and media all over the world. I want to go out there and make all the people happy.

“The knockout in my last fight felt good. It felt like my younger days against Ricky Hatton, Miguel Cotto y otros. That fight was a big challenge for me to recover from the fight against Jeff Horn. People said that my career was done. But I never got discouraged, I just worked hard and made the knockout against Lucas Matthysse happen.

“These days I don’t only train my body, but also my mind. I’m a Senator, so my mind is very busy. I also play chess regularly and read books to keep my mind sharp.

“People writing me off after the Jeff Horn fight was good for me. I’m not mad at anyone who thought that. It just became a challenge and a test to me of whether or not I could still show my best.

“Being back here at MGM Grand makes me so happy. It’s an honor to be in this position. I remember my first fight here in the U.S. was at MGM Grand. I will never forget that moment and now I get to come back here and do it again.

“I know he is going to counter me but we’re ready for that. What happened in the Juan Manuel Marquez fight will not happen again. It was a mistake and I learned that mistake. We’ve worked on that in this training camp. I am prepared for Broner’s style.

“This is a challenge because it is my first fight as a 40-year-old. I have something to prove to everyone about what that means. Age is just a number. What matters is how you prepare and that you’re working hard.

“I don’t need to dislike my opponent to want a knockout. I’m just doing my job in the ring. Si el nocaut viene, Viene. We’re hoping to have that opportunity Saturday. I have to pressure him to make him open up. Wherever he goes, Estaré allí.

“I’ve always stayed disciplined throughout my years in boxing. I’m always making sure everything is in order and on point during my workouts. That plus cross-training with activities like basketball has helped me stay in this position all these years.”

Adrien Broner

“I’m not up here to talk a lot of trash. I’ve put in the work. Es la hora de luchar. Después de ganar, everything is going to be different.

“People are talking a lot about Pacquiao fighting Floyd Mayweather again, but I’m pretty sure Floyd is retired. I feel like people are trying to throw me to the wolves and overlook me.

“He doesn’t remind me of any past opponents just like I’m not going to remind him of anyone he’s fought. He’s never fought anyone like me. Every fighter has similarities, but truly every fighter is different. If I remind him of Floyd Mayweather, I hope his arm doesn’t hurt after this one.

“Look at my last five fights. I’ve fought world champion after world champion. I don’t duck any fights. I don’t care how many weight classes he’s won titles in.

“I’m not in awe of any fighter, especially Manny Pacquiao. I hope he’s in awe of me. I’m a one of a kind fighter too. I’ve made history in this sport.

“I just have to go out and win this fight, then everything is going to start going my way. Sábado noche, Voy a salir victorioso. This is a defining moment in my career and it’s going to be one of the biggest nights of my life.

“Pacquiao hasn’t fought me so I’m not worried about what he says about me right now. He’s going to have a different outlook after he fights me Saturday night.

“I’m going to turn Las Vegas into a big block party after I win on Saturday night. It’s going to change my career.

“Manny Pacquiao has done a lot for the sport. I’m going to beat him up and have a drink with him afterward. I grew up in boxing and I know what’s going on. It’s a business, but don’t get it twisted, I’m going to dominate and win.

“This is going to be a hell of a fight. I’ve trained so hard and I want everyone to know that I play around a lot, but when that bell rings, Voy a estar listo. I didn’t come here to lose or lay down. I came here to get this victory. Real talk.”

BUBOY FERNANDEZ, Pacquiao’s Co-Trainer

“I’m very thankful to this great team that we have that has prepared Manny for this challenge. I know that we worked very hard for this. I cannot fly without wings, but I can bring the belt back to the Philippines.

“Manny has trained hard and we expect a good fight. This is the hardest I’ve seen him train and it will be seen in the ring Saturday night”

FREDDIE ROACH, Pacquiao’s Co-Trainer

“We’ve trained really hard for this fight. Manny is looking really good and is in tremendous shape. I’m sure Adrien is also because they’re both great fighters. I wish both men luck and may the best man win.”

KEVIN CUNNINGHAM, Broner’s Co-Trainer

“We’ve had a tremendous training camp. Adrien is ready to go. Everyone who knows me, knows that all I have in this world in my word, and I don’t break it for nobody. I’m giving you my word that Adrien will put on a spectacular performance on Saturday night.

“I’m guaranteeing that Adrien will send Manny back to the Senate, beltless, without the WBA title. I guarantee it.”

MIKE STAFFORD, Broner’s Co-Trainer

“Adrien came to me when he was 55 pounds and seven-years-old. He was an underdog then and he came back day after day. People thought he was a bad kid, but I told people that I saw something in him.

“Freddie Roach didn’t know who Adrien was years ago when we were getting ready to work with the Olympic team together. But he got to know Adrien, and on Saturday night, Manny is going to know him too. That’s for sure.”

JOE RAMOS, COO of Manny Pacquiao Promotions

“We are honored, humbled and proud to be a part of this amazing event. This will be Manny’s 20º fight in Las Vegas and we’ve been treated amazingly throughout the entire promotion. I’m thankful to all of Team Pacquiao for the work they do and helping make everything run smoothly.

“We all know that Adrien is ready and we expect nothing but the best from him and his team on Saturday night.

“MGM Grand is known for the lion, and Lenny the Lion is right there when you enter the building. El sábado por la noche, Manny will show his heart of a lion for fans all over the world and prove once again that he’s the king of the jungle.”

LEONARD Ellerbe, CEO de Mayweather Promotions

“About three and a half years ago I sat here opposite this great legend in Manny Pacquiao. I’ve studied this man for many years and today he’s still one of the best welterweights in the world. He still has tremendous explosiveness and power, but more importantly the experience to beat any welterweight in the world.

“Pacquiao has been doing this for so many years that we forget how truly great this man is. He’s in a very comfortable position right now. He’s super motivated and thats what is going to make this a great fight on Saturday night.

“Coming into this fight we all know that there have been rumblings about what Adrien needs to do to win this fight. But what I’ve witnessed firsthand this entire promotion, is that this man has dedicated himself 100 por ciento. He’s done everything his coaches have asked of him and he’s exceeded those expectations.

“Adrien Broner is ready, enfocado, and he’s put in the work. He’s put himself in the best situation to be successful on Saturday night. I expect nothing less than a great virtuoso performance. He didn’t cut one corner this training camp. He wants to prove to everyone, that everything people have said about him can be thrown out the window. He’s coming to show the entire world what he’s all about.”

Ravone LITTLEJOHN, CEO of About Billions Promotions

“Adrien trained really hard for this fight. I’d like to thank Kevin Cunningham and Mike Stafford, they put together a great game plan. Adrien will be ready.

“There’s been a lot of talk from Pacquiao’s side about getting a knockout, but you’re the one getting knocked out. You’ve been knocked out, we haven’t.

“This our first time on this stage and in this position and it’s been very enjoyable. Adrien and I have put a lot into this over the last 10-15 año. We’re pulling for our guy 100 por ciento.”

STEPHEN ESPINOZA, Presidente Deportes & Programación de eventos, Showtime Networks Inc.

“I’m not going to come up here and tell you all anything you don’t already know about Manny Pacquiao or Adrien Broner. These are two guys who have operated at the highest level of boxing for years. In Manny’s case, literally decades. But I will remind you of some things.

“Manny Pacquiao is a Hall of Famer, sin duda alguna. He’s a boxing legend who’s generous, humble and soft-spoken outside of the ring. But most of all, he takes tough fights. El último 20 opponents Pacquiao has had have been current, future or former world champions.

“Adrien Broner has faced nine world champions in 37 peleas profesionales. He’s obviously demonstrated himself as being an elite fighter. He’s flashy, flamboyant, sometimes outrageous, but he’s always unapologetically himself.

“On Saturday night, everything changes. Pacquiao is no longer soft-spoken and Broner is no longer fun-loving and outgoing. They transform themselves into two of the most athletically gifted and ferocious warriors in our sport. Above all these two guys have heart, which is the rarest thing in this sport.

“Between the two of them, they’ve won titles in 12 divisiones de peso. That’s the third most of all-time, trailing just Mayweather vs. Pacquiao and Pacquiao vs. De La Hoya.

“We know this is an elite fight and these fighters are in elite company. But on Saturday night, none of that matters. It’s not a contest of who has the best resume. This is a high level contest with high stakes between two of the most talented and athletically gifted fighters in the sport today. A win in this fight catapults each of these men to bigger things. It doesn’t get any more significant than that.”

RICHARD TORMENTA, President of Entertainment and Sports for MGM Resorts International

“I’d like to welcome back Manny Pacquiao and Adrien Broner, two of the sport’s best fighters, de regreso a Las Vegas y MGM Grand. Fans are always excited to watch these two fighters compete in the ring and we’re confident that Saturday’s event will kick off another exciting year of sports and entertainment programming for MGM Resorts.

“I’m thankful to all of the people who have helped make this fight happen here in Las Vegas. We look forward to seeing everyone at the MGM Grand Garden Arena Saturday night for this sensational event.”

Broner, junto con el entrenadorKevin Cunningham, have been at Barry’s Boxing in Las Vegas finishing up training camp after spending most of camp in West Palm Beach, Florida preparing to face boxing’s only eight-division world champion in Pacquiao. Here is what they had to say Monday at Barry’s Boxing:

Adrien Broner

“Every fighter is different, but I know if I touch him flush, I’ll put him out. It’s no secret, he’s been to sleep before.

“I’m in shape and ready to go. Tuvimos un campo de entrenamiento tremendo. I could have made weight weeks ago. We’re prepared to go out and execute.

“I’ve been here before, and even though I haven’t been in a fight of exactly this magnitude, I’m just treating it like any other fight. He’s another opponent.

“A lot of people are saying that Pacquiao’s age will be a factor, but I’m not looking at it like that. You see guys like Floyd Mayweather who stay undefeated at an older age. I’m just focused on being me. As long as I do what I have to do, Voy a salir victorioso.

“We’re ready for whatever this fight is going to end up being. It could definitely be a war. I’ve always been an underdog. I came from the trenches and I’m bringing that mentality into the ring.

“I can take over boxing with a win over Pacquiao. There are a lot of great fighters in this sport, but they just don’t bring what I bring to the table. With a win like this, it would put me right where I was always meant to be.

“I’ve always wanted to fight the big names like this and I knew that I just had to keep working hard and the time would come.

“Once that bell rings, I’ll make my adjustments and go ahead and get my victory. I don’t have anything I want to go out and prove. It’s just about winning. That will say everything.”

KEVIN CUNNINGHAM, Entrenador de Broner

“Preparation has been great. Campamento ha sido enorme. Adrien is ready to go and extremely focused for this fight. He came into camp that way and it’s stayed that way.

“We added some things this training camp, because we know he’s fighting a legendary fighter. This is one that he has to have and he realizes it. I expect a spectacular performance.

“I think on Saturday night that Adrien is going to be that guy that everyone expected him to be from day one. It will open a lot of eyes. I believe that we put the work in. I can’t see Adrien coming out of there without a victory.

“The key to victory is for Adrien to just be himself. He has to do what he does best with no hesitation. He’s going to throw the right punches at the right time.

“Pacquiao still throws combinations but they don’t come in as fast or as sharp as they used to. He can throw as many punches as he wants to throw, but if they’re not landing, it doesn’t mean anything.

“I think Adrien is the quicker fighter. Quickness offsets speed, all day, every day. It’s all about being quick enough to time the guy with your hand speed. It’s different than just throwing a bunch of fast punches.”

 LAS VEGAS(Enero 10, 2019) – Former two-division world championBadou Jack hosted a media workout at Mayweather Boxing Club in Las Vegas Thursday as he prepares to take on unbeaten top contenderMarcus Browne for the WBA Interim Light Heavyweight Title Saturday, Enero 19 on the Pacquiao vs. Broner SHOWTIME PPV® event from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas and presented by Premier Boxing Champions.

Entradas Para el evento, el cual es promovido por MP, Mayweather Promotions and TGB Promotions in association with About Billions Promotions, are on sale now and start at $100, not including applicable service charges, y se puede comprar en línea a través de AXS.com, charge by phone at 866-740-7711 or in person at any MGM Resorts International box office.

A resident of Las Vegas, Jack is preparing to fight in his adopted home city for the 11ºtime as a pro on January 19. He will be making his third appearance on SHOWTIME PPV, having won a light heavyweight crown against Nathan Cleverly in August 2017 en la Mayweather vs. evento McGregor.

Here is what Jack, his trainer Lou Del Valle and Mayweather Promotions CEO Leonard Ellerbe had to say Thursday:

JACK BADOU

“I feel young and like I’m still improving. I take care of my body every day. Age won’t be a problem for me, it’ll be an advantage.

“I’m a confident fighter. I don’t need to talk and brag about everything. I’m just comfortable; dentro y fuera del anillo de.

“I’m battle-tested. I’ve been in there in tough fights. He hasn’t been tested like that, so we’ll have to see what he’s capable of when the pressure is on.

“Marcus Browne is an athletic and skilled fighter. But it’s a little different to fight on the prospect and contender level versus on this world class level.

“One of my biggest strengths in the ring is my ability to adjust. Mi entrenador, Lou Del Valle, has really helped in that regard. He’s been in there as a world champion like me on the big stage. He knows so much about boxing.

“This is nothing new to me. I’ve been on a lot of big cards, so this is a regular day on the job. It’s exciting as always and I can’t wait to put on a good show.

“I feel like it’s my duty to give back outside of the ring. With this platform that I have, why wouldn’t I? We should use this platform for something deeper than boxing.”

On the Pacquiao vs. Broner SHOWTIME PPV main event:

“It’s a really good fight. Pacquiao looked pretty good in his last fight, but Broner is very talented. Anything can happen in boxing, especially because Broner has a good chin and can fight. He just has to stay focused.”

LOU DEL VALLE, Jack’s Trainer

“Camp has been amazing. Every camp has just been better and better. He has improved on his weaknesses each time we work together. It’s incredible that a guy who’s 35-years-old can keep performing the way he is and still be getting better.

“We know that we have to be careful because Marcus is a good fighter. Everyone we fight at this level is quality. We’re only fighting champions and guys with the top pedigree. The better the fighter, the better we get.

“I don’t think that Marcus Browne wants to go the distance with Badou Jack. If you notice in previous fights, guys who fight Badou are not the same after. He takes a lot out of them and I think it’s going to happen again. Marcus is going to go for the early knockout, pero estamos listos.

“The experience gap is a big difference. I had only fought one 10-rounder when I first fought for the title, but I still thought that I could beat him. The experience that Virgil Hill had over me was really difficult to overcome and I think you’ll see something similar play out in this fight.”

LEONARD Ellerbe, CEO de Mayweather Promotions

“I think that this is going to be a very competitive fight. You have two guys in this fight that are very hungry. There are a lot of options in the light heavyweight division, and it’s all about timing. This fight gives both guys a chance to prove that they want to be the best and make a great statement.

“This fight has a very good chance of stealing the show. I like the fact that Marcus is very confident. If you’re in a big fight, you have to be. Badou is even-keeled, and he comes with his workman-like approach to every fight.

“Experience is everything in big fights. It’s a big deal when you’re under those lights. Going the distance with top guys, and knowing how to break guys down, it all plays a big role in fights like this.”

LOS ANGELES(Enero 10, 2019) – – SenadorManny “Pacman” Pacquiao, boxeo único campeón mundial de ocho divisiones, and former four-division world championAdrien “El Problema” Bronerhosted media days in Los Angeles Wednesday as they near their SHOWTIME PPV®clash taking place Saturday, Enero 19 desde el MGM Grand Garden Arena en Las Vegas.

Pacquiao will end his two-year hiatus from a U.S. boxing ring when he returns to Las Vegas to defend his World Boxing Association Welterweight World Title against Broner. Along with co-trainerBuboy Fernandezand longtime trainerFreddie Roach, Pacquiao spoke to media and worked out for the cameras at Wild Card Boxing Club.

Broner traveled to Los Angeles from his current training camp in Las Vegas to talk to media along with his trainerKevin Cunningham at Ten Goose Boxing Gym, after spending most of training in West Palm Beach, Florida.

Here is what the media day participants had to say from the split-site media day Wednesday:

MANNY PACQUIAO

“My journey in this sport is still continuing. I’ve accomplished everything I’ve wanted to, but I also want to continue to keep my name at the top. Even at 40-years-old, I can still show the best of Manny Pacquiao. I’m going to give the fans the speed and power that they’re used to seeing.

“I’m sure that Broner is focused on this fight. They are working hard and I expect him to be in great condition. We know how his trainer pushes him and has been pushing him in their training camp.

“I’m not taking this fight lightly. I don’t listen to any gossip about Adrien Broner, I just focus on my training. I want to be in 100 percent condition and ready for the fight on January 19.

“Adrien Broner is fast with his hands and he’s overall a good boxer. This is a big challenge that I’m excited for.

“Me, Freddie and Buboy know each other well and we have a great coaching staff right now. I’m happy with how everything has gone in training for this fight.

“Rest and recovery is definitely a key part of training. Sometimes when I work hard in the gym, my body can’t fully recover by the next day, so I’ve had to work more rest into the schedule. But as soon as I can, I’m back in the gym working hard.

“En enero 19 I’m going to do my best. I can’t say a prediction, but I’m going to do the same thing I did for my last fight. My trainers know how hard I’ve worked in this camp for this win.

“My plan is to take it one fight at a time. I can’t talk about future fights until I do what I have to on January 19. You can ask me again after this one.

“This fight means a lot. It’s my first fight at the age of 40 so I’m excited to give my best and show the world what I can still do. El boxeo es mi pasion, and public service is my mission. I love to bring honor to my country.”

Adrien Broner

“Growing up and seeing Pacquiao fight, of course I always wanted to fight him. I’m a competitor. One day I want to be the best, and to be the best you have to beat the best. It starts here.

“This is my first PPV but I was always supposed to be here. God doesn’t make mistakes. After this victory, I will be taking over the sport of boxing. This is just the beginning.

“His last fight he did stop Matthysse, so I’m pretty sure he still has power. But I’m going to be ready, I’m going to be ready for whatever he brings to the table. We’re in shape to get it done, I can tell you that.

“This win makes me an icon. It makes me what I always wanted to be, and what everybody always thought I would be. A win here and I’m a legend overnight.

“It’s going to be a hell of a fight. I just can’t wait till round one. Everybody I fight says they are going to knock me out. That should be the objective of every fighter, pero eso no va a suceder.

“El cielo es el límite para mí, but in boxing you have to take it one fight at a time. You can’t overlook anybody in this sport. My main focus is Manny Pacquiao and I will be ready.

“A win would mean a lot. It turns a new page in my book. It’s another beginning. I’m already a star in boxing, but a win here and I’m taking over the sport. This is just the beginning.

“It’s not a mystery – he’s been knocked out before. Not once, not twice, but three times. And he’s been put down a lot, too. There are many blueprints to beat Manny. I think I have all the tools to beat him. I will show all the tools in my arsenal and show all the weaknesses in his.”

BUBOY FERNANDEZ, Pacquiao’s Co-Trainer

“I think it’s going to be a knockout. If Broner opens the door, we’re going to get it early. I’ve seen from previous fights that he’s a slow starter. So we need to get inside and go first.

“We know that Broner is a good counter-puncher with a strong right uppercut. Broner is a real fighter and a smart fighter in the ring.

“I’m happy that Manny has shown that he moves as well as ever, even at 40-years-old. He’s learning even more now. I told the team that I think he’s already prepared for this fight.

“We just want him to maintain this shape and energy level. Manny is 110 ciento listo. I don’t think there’s a fighter who can keep up with what Manny brings.”

FREDDIE ROACH, Pacquiao’s Co-Trainer

“No puedo esperar para esta pelea. Camp has been great and he’s been training very well. Everything is back to normal and he’s looked amazing.

“Manny and I have been together 15 año, so I had no reason to ever be mad at Manny. Everything has worked out really well and we’re working together as a team right now.

“I’m working on the game plan for how to fight Broner. He’s a counterpuncher who doesn’t like to come forward too much. Manny will have to be the aggressor in this fight and use his feints to trap this guy into making it more of a fight.

“I feel we’re going to see an aggressive Manny Pacquiao. There’s a rumor that Manny has been telling people he’s looking for a knockout. I love that attitude. I think his knockout of Lucas Matthysse was so satisfying and he saw that that’s what the fans really want. I think that’s going to carry over to this fight.

“Pacquiao and I have a deal. Once his work ethic drops, I’m going to tell him and he’s agreed he’ll retire. His work ethic is unbelievable right now. He hasn’t slowed down at all. He hit me with a shot in the chest two or three days ago, and I’ve never been hit harder in my life.”

KEVIN CUNNINGHAM, Entrenador de Broner

“Everything went tremendous in Florida. I’ve never seen Adrien this focused and I’ve been around him for years. He came to camp with a look on his face like this is the one he’s got to have. He prepared for nine hard weeks and we didn’t miss a beat. Everting was on point.

“He’s ready. He’s focused. We had tremendous sparring. Todo fue genial. We didn’t have any hiccups, any injuries or setbacks. He’s ready to go and he’s going to look spectacular on January 19.

“Manny fights with a high punch volume and he’s aggressive with it. But sometimes he’s reckless with it. Adrien is a sharp counter-puncher. He gets off first and last. If Adrien comes to the ring mentally sharp like I know he will, because physically he’s as sharp as ever, as long as his mind is on point, I think it’s going to be a long night for Manny and it’s the wrong fight for Manny.

“There’s a lot there to exploit. I know Manny throws a lot of punches and Adrien doesn’t throw a lot, but this fight is not about matching Manny’s punch count. This fight is about throwing the right shots at the right time.

“There’s a big difference in Adrien from the last camp. He didn’t take Jessie Vargas as seriously as he’s taking this legendary eight-time world champion in Manny Pacquiao. There were some things that went on that showed he wasn’t as focused as he is for a fight like this. He’s just been on point. He’s not screwing around. He’s not looking for days off to go have a good time. He’s just locked in on Manny Pacquiao.”

Cincinnati’s Broner, one of boxing’s most popular and colorful personalities, is training under the tutelage of Kevin Cunningham in nearby West Palm Beach, Fla.

Here is what Broner and Cunningham had to say Tuesday:

Adrien Broner

“This fight is real important. This is a hell of a fight not only for me but for the sport. This is a fight that needed to happen for the sport and we are going to put on a hell of a show.

“I always knew that one day I would be having fights like this. Honestly I thought he [Pacquiao] would be done with boxing by now but I always knew I would have a fight of this magnitude on this platform, pay-per-view and all and now I’m here.

“I knew what to expect. I knew he [Kevin] was going to be real strict and I just came prepared.Ready to put it all in and put it all on the line.”

On what he does in his down time:

“I try to rest as much as possible. I’m training so much and training real hard. This will be my second workout of the day and then after this I have another workout at 8:30 p.m. so that will be the third workout for the day so you know all my off time I try to eat properly, stay hydrated and stay focused.”

On how it feels to train in a gym that hosted greats like Muhammad Ali:

“It’s lovely. I never knew this gym existed and this is my first time ever being here or ever hearing about this gym being legendary. Muhammad Ali paved the way for guys like me and Sugar Ray Leonard and everyone else so, it’s legendary.

“I always tell other fighters and other people it takes more to be a star than just boxing. I just have everything it takes to be a mega star.”

On Pacquiao’s last fight against Lucas Matthysse:

“I didn’t see it but I heard he looked good. I don’t know what to expect. I’m just training for the best Pacquiao. And I’m going to go out there and do what I have to do to get the victory.”

How do you feel training in South Florida?

“I’m not focused on the clubbing and stuff and all that stuff will be here after the fight. Estoy 110 percent focused on this fight.”

What he will do after the Pacquiao Fight?

“Boxing you have to take it one fight at a time. My main focus is getting past Manny Pacquiao first and then we can talk about other things.”

On whether or not Pacquiao has a weakness:

“It’s not a mystery. He has seven losses. It’s not a mystery that he can lose but anyone can lose on any given day. It’s whoever prepares the best and I’m preparing myself to do what I need to do. I don’t care about stopping him or whether it’s a unanimous decision, as long as I’m victorious.”

On whether or not this is the biggest fight of his career:

“This is definitely my biggest fight, biggest magnitude, biggest platform I’ve ever been on but you never know. I could probably go in there and make this look like the easiest fight of my career you just never know.”

KEVIN CUNNINGHAM

“I think he’shaving even a better camp than the last. He’s added a new strength and conditioning coach and everything is working out perfect and camp is going extremely well and smooth. AB’s looking fast and explosive. No tengo ninguna queja.

“Adrien’s got everything; he’s a real throwback fighter. Tiene velocidad, he’s got power, he’s got quickness, he’s got footwork. He can punch and he can bang and he can box.He’s got skills and he can be slick if he wants to be. So he’s the total package.

“We have an idea of the way the fight is going to go. We’ve studied tons of Pacquiao footage and he pretty much fights the same every fight. Manny’s a rhythm fighter so it’s all about getting in his rhythm. He pretty much does his thing. But outside of that I’ve never really seen him make too many adjustments. He’s pretty much the same guy.”
