"Finally" Press Conference Quotes
"Finally" Press Conference Quotes
Holly Holm: “They mentioned my draw and loss, but I’m glad I tasted defeat because I know that I won’t taste it again. I’m nervous as all heck, but that’s normal, and it means I’m focused. I can’t wait for Friday to be over with.”
Mary Jo Sanders: “The women on this card defy gender. There is no skill difference between us and the men. I’ve been training…can’t even describe it. I’ve been doing crazy things —jumping over fences and running hills, using a breathing apparatus to restrict breathing . . . sparring 30, 40 rounds with southpaw Damian Fuller. I’ve been training for this fight like I’ve never trained for anything else.”
Chevelle Hallback: “This is history in the making. I’m overwhelmed to be part of this.”
Jeannie Garside: “I’m quite honored to fight Chevelle. ‘Finally’ has a lot of meaning for me. The day has come for me, finally.”
Wendy Rodriguez: “We’ll steal the show. Thank you, Hollie, for giving me a second chance to fight you.”
Hollie Dunaway: “Wendy and I will steal the show. We know each other pretty well from when we fought over a year ago.”
(Note: Dunaway’s camp will throw and extra $1,000 into the pot if there is a winner by knockout—either fighter)
Eileen Olszewski: “It took three years for me to get my pro debut. During that time, I watched these fighters and wished I could be like them. It just seems so unreal to be here now. I’ve trained really hard, but I’m ready to get the belt.”
Carino Moreno: “This is going to be history in the making, this card. This is business and tomorrow, I’m going to take care of business.”
