ANDY RUIZ JR.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI feel great. It means so much for me to be fighting in Los Angeles in front of all of my fans and supporters and I\u2019m just ready to go. Everyone here today and everyone who supports me are my motivation to keep going.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cIf this ends in a knockout it ends in a knockout. My only goal is to be victorious. I\u2019m in shape to go 12 hard rounds. We\u2019re going to go in there and leave it all in the ring.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m proof that anything is possible if you work hard and stay disciplined. The main thing right now is just accomplishing our goal Sunday night and leave the ring with my hand raised.\u201d<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

LUIS ORTIZ<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>\u201cYou\u2019re going to see a war on Sunday night. This is a venue that lends itself to great fights and this matchup with Ruiz is going to be another one to add to the history.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve said it once and I\u2019ll say it again, this fight is not going the distance. I hope all the Cuban and Mexican fans who are coming out are ready for something special, because its coming Saturday night.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cTraining camp has been perfect and we couldn\u2019t be more ready for this clash. I know Andy is going to bring everything he has. That\u2019s what I want. I want to beat the best version of Andy Ruiz Jr.\u201d<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n
