POST FIGHT QUOTES

Sakio Bika: “I feel very happy. Thank God I got this opportunity to fight for the IBO world super middleweight title. This was for my wife and two children back home. This belt will be an early Christmas present for them. Next year is going to be good for me. Next, I want Bernard Hopkins.”

Peter Manfredo, Jr.: “He’s so strong. He throws wide but everything he throws is strong. I tried to roll and catch him in between but I couldn’t. I’m okay. I’m going to enjoy Christmas with my family. I have a lot of talent and I’m only 27. I’m have to think about what I’m going to do.

Grady Brewer: “He’s a tough guy. I wasn’t able to hit him with shots that I should have. I respect his power. I fought his fight, kind of wild, but I got the win.”

Matt Remillard: “I felt great. I showed off more of my boxing skills. That kid’s dangerous. He’s strong, experienced and tried to suck me in with the right. I kept my composure.”
