\nThis is a smattering of what the participants commented at the press conference:<\/p>\n

CANELO ALVAREZ<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is going to be a great Mexican war. Mungu\u00eda and I came to win, but I am going to take the victory. \u201cThe fans will really enjoy Saturday night and I am proud to make history with two Mexican fighters fighting for all four belts.<\/p>\n

\u201cI feel better than ever and I’m ready for this fight. “I don’t know how many rounds it will last, but the Mexican fans are going to love this fight.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don’t care about experiences vs youth, I’m Canelo. \u201cI have everything I need to win and I know exactly what I have to do.<\/p>\n

\u201cI’m happy to have a great celebration on Saturday night. It’s for all Mexican fans, no matter who they support. \u201cI am very proud to make this fight a reality.<\/p>\n

\u201cMungu\u00eda has power and he is a good fighter. But I’m also a strong fighter and I’ll prove that to everyone again on Saturday night. The fight will last as long as it lasts. One thing is for sure: you won’t want to miss it.\u201d<\/p>\n

JAIME MUNGU\u00cdA<\/p>\n

\u201cI am very happy and excited that this fight is almost here. My team has been behind me the entire time and all the fans can expect an all-out Mexican War. Make sure you tune in, you won’t be disappointed.<\/p>\n

\u201cCanelo has a lot of experience and has faced great fighters. He may not have the same resume, but I have youth on my side. \u201cI\u2019m going to show my capabilities on Saturday night.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe’ve worked a lot with Freddie Roach and we’ve had an incredible training camp. You\u2019ll see everything we learned on Saturday night.<\/p>\n

\u201cI’m glad he wants to knock me out, because I come with the same mentality. I’m going to knock him out. It will be a great fight.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is an incredible moment and I am very excited to show everyone what I can do. Fighting on his undercard was one thing, but now I’m ready to face my moment.
\n\u201cOutside the ring, Canelo has all my respect, but inside the ring, that respect goes out the window.\u201d<\/p>\n

The card is organized by Canelo Promotions, and will be broadcasted in a PBC PPV event on Prime Video. Fans will also be able to purchase the PPV through DAZN.<\/p>\n
