Això és el que els combatents havien de dir abans del Dijous de pesatge:
GALARZA:
“We had some great sparring with guys like Daniel Jacobs, Saddam Ali, Khytrov. They always give me top tough work. That’s top competition right there. Fighting guys like that builds my confidence. If I can hang in there with them then I can hang with anyone. They’re going to help to bring me to another level. I feed off their energy.
“Moore is an aggressive fighter, but I’m a come-forward guy, massa. Jo puc ser agressiu, but smart aggressive. Not just aggressive to punch and throw punches wildly. It’s more being smart, using my defense, my offense and countering when he makes mistakes.
“I try not to think about fighting in the main event in Brooklyn, but it helps and it definitely motivates me. Vull dir, it doesn’t get any better than that – fighting in my home in the main event.
“It’s my backyard, so I have to put on a show. It doesn’t give me jitters because I’ve fought in my home before, but the main event is different. I just need to do my job.
"Per a mi, it’s will and skill. I bring my skill level to the next level. How bad do I want it? Am I going to perform well enough to move to the next level and face those top contenders?
“I want to face the top prospects so I can earn a spot as a contender. But I need to get through this guy first.”
MOORE:
“The main reason why I came all the way to the United States is because here is where boxing is at its best. I’m really excited about this opportunity. Being on SHOWTIME as a main event is huge for me.
“It’s not going to be easy, I’m fighting a guy from Brooklyn in Brooklyn in his back yard. But I’ve been in this situation before, I’ve fought abroad many times before and I’m not intimidated. It’s another day at the office for me.
“This is it for me, there’s no turning back. He de guanyar. I just don’t see myself losing tomorrow.
“I’ve seen a couple Galarza videos on YouTube. He was more of a brawler at the beginning of his career. Ara, he’s a more disciplined boxer. That can backfire sometimes, something to watch out.
“You’ll see fireworks and excitement. I’m not going to look for the knockout. I think it’s a bad strategy to do that. If it comes, ve. I’ll be looking to win, no importa què. This is a very big fight for me, so it’ll be all about winning, impressing and being at my best.”
KHYTROV
“The atmosphere training in Big Bear was amazing. It was one of the best training camps I’ve had. I’ve never been through a camp in the amateurs like that.
“I had a chance to meet Gennady (Golovkin) in Big Bear and we spoke and actually became pretty close. We talked about training regime, stuff athletes talk about. I loved it there.
“The adjustment from amateurs to pros has been fine. The only difference is handling the different rounds and realizing that you have to pace yourself for these eight, 10, 12 baralles rodones.
“The best time to knock a guy out is in the first two rounds when they aren’t warmed up yet. I tried against (Jorge) Melendez but I couldn’t get him out. I just realized I needed to pace myself for the other six rounds and work the body. It was nice to get those rounds and experience against a tough fighter.
“I know he (Coley) is a pretty hard-hitting southpaw. I assume that he won’t come forward, but maybe he’ll surprise me. He has a few knockouts, but I’m going to watch him, learn and adapt.
“I faced southpaws in the amateurs. His style won’t give me any issues. I could even switch to a southpaw stance if I need to.
“Personally, health allowing, I think I should be a contender by the end of 2015. But I put all my trust into my team. They know best. My job is just to train and prepare for everything they put in front of me.
“Sí, 100 percent I’d like to face Gennady. To be the best you have to fight the best. And right now I consider him to be the best 160 pound fighter in the world.”
COLEY:
“Fighting on TV for me is a big deal. When I was little, my father used to throw fight parties to watch big fights and tomorrow he’s throwing one for me. That alone makes me so proud. I’ll have my own viewing party. I’m fighting on national television, per SHOWTIME. That’s such of big deal for me. This is my breakout. This is the sign I’m made it.
“I stay in shape all year round, but for the past two months I’ve been taking it to the extreme. Training hard, sparring even harder.
“I’ve been working very hard. I’ve sparred with world champions and I’ve been doing well. I think this is my time to step up and show everybody how good I am.
“I’m predicting there will be a stoppage in the later rounds.”
DEREVYANCHENKO:
“The competition I faced in the WSB was, for the most part, the best fighters in the world. Fins ara, the guys I’ve faced in the pros don’t have that resume, that skill level. So I think I’ve fought in more than just four pro fights.
“I’m working hard in the gym to make the transition from amateur to pro. I’m taking it step-by-step. I don’t want to jump the gun or make a mistake too fast. I’m looking forward to increasing my level of opposition gradually.
“I’ve seen some of his (Campa) baralles. In some fights he boxes different than in other fights. We’ll see what he does in the ring and adjust accordingly. But I don’t think he can bring anything that I haven’t seen before. But he’s a Mexican fighter so we know he won’t give up.
“I’m going to show what I’m worth. I’ve been preparing for this my whole life. Now is my chance to build my fan base and show what I can do in the ring.”
CAMPA:
“This is my first fight in the U.S., and I’m planning to take full advantage of this opportunity.
“My training was intense, a lot of running, especially in the mountains. I worked on my conditioning and my speed. I’m at the best shape I’ve ever been.
“When I found out about my opponent, I watched video on him and I know I’m better than him. I think my main advantages are age and speed. My opponent is 29, Estic 23. I’m younger and quicker and I’m not about to make it easy for him.
“I’m going to read him in the early rounds and, if I feel he’s not hurting me, I’ll go the distance.
“This fight is a huge step-up for me. I see it as key fight. I feel it might be a make or break for me. ja veurem, I might get a chance to deliver a knockout and that might spark some attention in the boxing world.”

For Galarza, que està grimpant en el rànquing mundial, el recent augment no podia arribar en un millor moment. Un físicament fort, agressiu boxejador-colpejador, Galarza va començar tard en la boxa i tenia només 11 baralles com amateur.
"El moment per a mi és sens dubte ara,'', Va dir. "La meva primera ShoBox lluitar establir la plataforma per a mi. No m'acaba de guanyar una baralla que absolutament ningú va pensar que podia, El vaig guanyar en gran estil. Vaig fer una declaració. He seguit creixent i sento que he millorat des que lluita. Però sóc aquí per mostrar a la gent el que estic tot sobre, continuar entrenant molt dur i que acaba de prendre a poc a poc, una baralla a la vegada.
"És emocionant per lluitar en l'esdeveniment principal televisat al meu pati del darrere. Mai he estat més motivats per a un partit. Vull agrair a SHOWTIME per donar-me una altra oportunitat de lluitar a ShoBox.''

"És agressiu i aquesta és la millor part d'això - el que farà que una gran baralla. Jo puc ser agressiu, massa. Jo sé que ell ve a barallar i tothom sap que no em moc cap enrere, així que espero que els focs artificials.
"Vinc a lluitar cada vegada, especialment per SHOWTIME, a ShoBox on et donen els opositors de bon calibre que s'espera posar en un espectacle i espera fer una bona baralla.
"Està a Brooklyn, la meva ciutat natal, i vull entretenir a la gent. Aquest és el meu xou, meu retorn a casa, i vaig a defensar la meva terra natal. Tinc una feina a fer a l'abril 10, però després d'això, els grans noms de la divisió seran obligats a tractar amb mi. Estic 29 i posant tot en la línia. ''

He vist algunes de les baralles de Galarza i estic completament segur que tinc el que es necessita per molestar en el vostre jardí. Això és un somni fet realitat per a mi, lluitant en la televisió nacional, i penso en mostrar el món de la boxa que pertanyo a nivell d'elit d'aquesta divisió.
"El meu estil és definitivament agressiu. M'agrada caminar per la meva oponent. Galarza té bon moviment i bon abast. Però aquesta baralla serà la primera baralla en la qual no he de treballar al costat durant la preparació. Estic 100 cent dedicat a l'esport i que sortirà el 10 d'abril "
El 5 peus i 10 Moore ha guanyat les seves últimes dues baralles, el més recent en un nocaut en el primer assalt sobre Janos Varga últim Desembre. 20 a Bèlgica. Igual que Galarza, ell va començar tard en la boxa i va tenir una carrera amateur limitada (27 extrems).

Va encendre Louishomme amb de dreta i uppercuts al cos, ell trontollant en múltiples ocasions en un sol costat assumpte que va ser detingut a 0:24 a la tercera ronda.
