Roman “Chocolatito” Gonzalez

“We’re prepared to go 15-20 rounds if we needed to, our training camp in Big Bear was the best of my career.

“It’s a great motivation for me to plow a path for other fighters at this weight class to also have success.”

“I feel very good at this weight, yesterday I weighed 116 and I’m just waiting for Friday to weigh-in on the mark.”

“This is the strongest I’ve felt in my career.”

“I have a great deal of respect for Carlos Cuadras and am only thinking about him. He has great skills and that is why he is a champion, I’m sure he is in the best condition of his career.”

“I will have a strong fan base as well with a lot of Nicaraguans coming to the fight.”

“It’s very important to me to gain the fourth divisional title. Alexis Arguello trained and mentored me and I saw him as a father figure.”

“Although I’m a champion, I see myself as a challenger in this fight.”

Carlos “El Principe” Cuadras

“It’s a great venue where many Mexican legends have fought.”

“Yes, I believe the Mexican fans will come and see me, I’m one of their own.”

“Saturday night is my night, I will be victorious, the belt is coming back home with me.”

Yoshihiro Kamegai
“I don’t think I lost the first fight but it was an away game for me and I don’t think I did
enough to win an away game.”

“He’s a very good fighter and I’m glad he wanted to do a rematch.”

“I need to have more power behind my punches and that’s something we’ve worked
on in training.”

“It’s hard to say if he was the best I’ve faced but he was a great style matchup.”

Jesus “Renuente” Soto Karass

“I did a lot more roadwork, but mountainous roadwork for better conditioning.”

“I don’t want to sound bad, the only thing I can about is Kamegai, then we can speak about future fights.”

“I’m a badass and in the end I know what I capable of. There are a lot of up and coming fighters
but I won’t be a steppingstone for them.”

Ryan “Blue Chip” Martin

“The first time at the Forum was one of the best atmosphere’s to fight in and it feel’s like home to come back here.”

“I’ve seen some tapes of my opponent, we have a great game plan coming in, I will go in there
and do my job, he has to worry about me.”

“Can’t wait to watch the main event, looking forward to seeing Chocolatito fight, he’s a very special talent.”

“The WBC is a great organization and I’m honored to fight for one of their titles on Saturday night and look forward to bigger and better things ahead.”
