OAKLAND, ZOALS (Oktober 3, 2016) - Tweevoudig wereldkampioen André “S.O.G.” Afdeling (30-0, 15 KO) officially kicks off training camp in Hayward, CA with trainer Virgil Hunter ahead of his November 19showdown at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas against WBO, WBA- en IBF-wereldkampioen licht zwaargewicht Sergej “Krusher” Kovalev (30-0-1, 26 KO). Ward’s training camp, which will serve as a base for Ward over the next several weeks as he continues his quest to dominate the light heavyweight division, is sponsored by a resounding collection of American-based companies including Jordan Brand, Shoe Palace, JetLux, and ProSupps.
Below is what Team Ward had to say about the start of training camp:
ANDRE WARD, Twee keer wereldkampioen en top-rated pound-for-pond vechter:
“I’ve been in pre-camp mode for weeks now following my last fight, and have been mentally preparing for the work ahead of me. It’s an exciting feeling to be in full camp mode, where I can dedicate 100% of my mind, body and soul to the battle I am about to face. This is a fight that we have been working up to since last spring. The game plan hasn’t changed. I am here and I am ready.”
VIRGIL HUNTER, Andre Ward’s Trainer:
“No one beats Andre Ward when it comes to training camp. We’re going into camp with the mentality of another day, another fight, another win. His strive for perfection, work ethic and consistency is what makes him a champion.”
JAMES PRINCE, Andre Ward’s Manager:
“With everything set for the biggest fight of the year on November 19, we are excited to open training camp. What is done here for the next few weeks will play a major part in the final outcome. We thank God for the opportunity and look forward to giving the boxing community and all of our fans, the fight that they have been anticipating.”
