Men sa Russell Jr, Gary Russell Sr. (Papa Gary a ak antrenè) ak Gary Antonio Russell(Ti frè Gary a ak undefeated boksè Prospect) te di nan Madi:

GARY RUSSELL JR.:
“Kan fòmasyon ki pral gwo, nou ap dwa sou kou. Te gen yon okèt minè nan kan an paske mwen te sipoze goumen sou Oct. 24. Mwen te kòmanse bòks, but once the fight got pushed back to Novanm 14 I cut the sparring off. Mwen pa t 'vle pik twò bonè.
“Jodi a (Madi) te premye jou m 'lan bòks ankò. Mwen ap travay sou distribisyon m ', ring generalship and lateral movement. We’re right on course.
“Oscar Escandon se fò ak dirab. Li vini dwat devan. Si kwen l 'te entelijan yo ta eseye pran lwen vitès men m' ki pral gen yon gwo faktè nan batay la. Li pral bezwen yo fèmen distans la, toufe pwenson m 'konsa vitès se pa yon faktè.
“Nou ap travay sou vin menm jan konfòtab batay sou deyò a jan mwen menm mwen goumen sou andedan an.
“Yon anpil nan avyon de gè yo se youn dimansyon. Nou ap eseye fè ki dyaman klere sou tout kote.
“Mwen konnen ke mwen pral viktorye san yon dout. Nenpòt moun ki ke ou jwenn nan bag la ak sa yo ti, 8-ounce gloves always has a possibility of creating an upset whether he’s a big puncher or not. Se sèlman pran yon sèl piki. It’s the fighters’ job to take away that opportunity.
“Mwen se eksite yo goumen, peryòd. I don’t even think about this fight being a title defense. Li pran yon sèten kalite severite mantal ak fòs sikolojik jwenn nan bag la ak fè. Nenpòt ki moun ki vin nan bag la kont mwen se yon chanpyon nan je m '.
“It’s been about seven months since I fought. I’m always anxious to get back in the ring.
“Si m 'jwenn sot pase Escandon Mwen ta renmen al goumen Leo Santa Cruz, we fought in the amateurs. But we never underestimate any opponent and we are focused on getting this fight out of the way first. Lee Selby is another guy that we’re looking at. Of course Abner Mares, menm si li te pèdi, would be a great fight. These are the type of guys that we’d like to fight.
“Èske w gen fanmi mwen avè m 'pandan kan fòmasyon vle di tout bagay sa yo m'. Li nan kote mwen jwenn enèji mwen an soti nan. Yon anpil nan mesye santi tankou yo gen jwenn lwen pou kan fòmasyon, men mwen pa gen kite kay. Fanmi mwen se fòs la kondwi dèyè kan fòmasyon m 'ak kote mwen jwenn kouraj mwen ak motivasyon. Nan fen jounen an, Mwen bwat pou fanmi m '.
“Si frè m 'lan fini moute batay sou undercard mwen li ta trè fre pou m'. Li pral komik paske si li konpetisyon, ou pral definitivman wè m 'travay kwen l' devan batay tit mwen.”
GARY RUSSELL SR.:
“Mwen konnen li nan yon batay chanpyona, men nou ale nan tout batay tankou li nan yon batay tit. Nou pa konnen yon tòn sou opozan l 'yo, nou jis antrene tankou chanpyon.
“Mwen gen sis pitit gason, tout nan yo se avyon de gè. Yo tout gen atribi diferan jan moun ki tradui yon fason diferan nan ki moun yo ye menm jan moun ak nan bag la.
“Antonio Russell se 4-0, li te te travay vrèman difisil tout nan lavi l '. Deyò nan jimnastik la, li ka ranje anyen. Antoine, ki jis kalifye pou esè yo Olympic, se briyan. Mwen trè fyè de l ', paske li jis gradye valedictorian nan klas li yo ak GPA ki pi wo a nenpòt moun ki nan konte Prince George a. Lè sa a, ou gen Gary, ki moun ki se konsa difisil k ap travay, li se tan kap vini patriyach a nan fanmi an. Li gen yon lespri fin vye granmoun.
“Mwen fyè nan tout nan timoun mwen ak mwen se fyè ke nou ap yon inite fanmi fò. Nou te aprann yon anpil soti nan pèt Gary a Vasyl Lomachenko. Nou gen yon deviz nan gym la ki pandye soti nan yon banyè, li di 'Siksè se Revenge la Ultim’ epi nou te viv pa ke depi tout tan pèt la. Nou te aprann yon leson enpòtan nan men ki te goumen kont epi yo gen te deplase sou.
“Bòks se yon bagay k'ap pase, ou pa fè l 'pou tout tan. Nou ap fè bagay pwòp nou. Mwen pa enkyete w sou sa lòt moun te fè.
“Menm jan yon papa, ensten patènèl ou anvwaye nan paske se nan sa a espò, anyen ka rive. Ou pa vle wè pitit gason ou fini fè mal. Se konsa, nou tren pou nenpòt ki sikonstans. Paske nan ki ensten, Mwen te strik epi yo ka difisil sou pitit gason m 'yo nan lòd pou yo eseye kenbe yo an sekirite.”
GARY ANTONIO RUSSELL (Goumen sou mòn lan Vandredi, Oct. 30 ki pa Peye-televize Premier boksè chanpyon sou rebondisman televizyon undercard ak potansyèlman nan Novanm 14 undercard.):
“Avèk wout la nou tren ak batay, defans nou an kouche moute ofans nou yo ak ofans nou an kouche moute defans nou an.
“Travay mwen se yo ale nan gen ak genyen batay. Mwen konnen advèsè mwen an se yon nèg wotè, Men, mwen konnen tou ke li pa pral pou pou genyen. Li pa gen pouvwa a pwensonaj oswa Tactics bag ke mwen gen.
“Yon fwa mwen genyen, Mwen se sou pwochen an. Mwen resevwa fòmasyon yo goumen toujou. Mwen espere ke mwen jwenn sa a Guy soti byen bonè, si li vini ak prezante tèt li. Apre sa, mwen ta renmen al goumen sou kat gran frè m 'lan de semèn apre.”

“I saw his punches easily coming in. I know I threw more punches. I was a little surprised that he did not come out for the (10th) but he was cut, had been getting beat up and had just got knocked down, so he knew what would happen if he came out.

 

“Chavez said before the fight that he didn’t think I could take his body punches. I think I took them pretty good and passed that test.

 

“I know there are things I can still work on in training to become a more complete boxer, menaswè a was a dream come true. I want a rematch with (Light Heavyweight World Champion) Adonis Stevenson.

 

Said Chavez, the son of legendary Mexican icon, Julio Cesar Chavez Sr. in the ring afterward and before he was taken to the hospital as a precautionary measure, “Maybe 170,172 pounds is too big for me, maybe I’ll go back down.

“My combinations were effective the whole night, we stuck to our gameplan and came out victorious,” said Imam. “I want any of the world champions next”.

 

Castle, who saw a nine-fight winning streak come to an end, di “I thought I won the fight. I didn’t get credit for the punches I threw. The judge who scored it 100-90; byen, that gives me no chance to win here. The cut bothered me in the early rounds, but was not a factor after.”

“I want to fight the best next, the top guys at 122 pounds and right now the top guy is Leo Santa Cruz. That’s who I’d like to fight next. I really want to thank all my team, from top to bottom, for giving me this wonderful opportunity. We’re very happy that we joined the Al Haymon team. We’re very loyal and we just really appreciate everything they’ve done for us.”

 

Escandon felt he’d done enough to win despite injuring the right index finger on his right hand in the seventh round.

“I did all that I could, everything was in my reach, but I think I broke or fractured my finger,” li te di. “In boxing things happen that are out of your control. Because I hurt my hand, I couldn’t throw punches the way I wanted to with my right hand. I tried to do all I could with it. But I didn’t want to injure it further. I’m OK, but I definitely would love a rematch.”
