DANNY GARCIA & ANGEL GARCIA PHILADELPHIA MEDIA WORKOUT QUOTES


DANNY GARCIA, Unified Super Lightweight World Champion
"He [Zab Judah] is just another guy in my way. They all say the same thing. They think they're going to beat me...until we get into that ring.
"Everything is going solid. This is one of my most solid camps. I'm running and sparring and looking sharper every day. We're running a perfect schedule.
"[On his rib injury that postponed the originally scheduled February 9 fight date] I got hurt sparring. Boxing is a contact sport. It's my first injury ever as a professional. I feel like there shouldn't be any questions. My team and I made the right decision.
"Zab is from Brooklyn, but I'm the hometown guy. I was in New York City a few weeks ago, and a lot of people told me they are rooting for me. I know the crowd is going to be for me that night. I'm the champ.
"I feel like I'm hungrier now than ever. Everyone wants what I have. I have to always be on my A game. If you think like a champion, act like a champion and walk like a champion, you are a champion.
"I'm not really concerned about anything [that Judah will do in the fight]. I know I'm going to be at 110 percent and in perfect shape.
"I've fought tons of southpaws in the amateurs and in the pros. It's easier for me because I can land my hard left hand and hard left hook.
"Experience doesn't mean anything when you get hit. It is about how you can take a punch. When you get hit and let your hands go, experience doesn't matter.
"I have to keep showing the world that I'm the best 140-pound fighter
"I think it's personal when you go into a fight and a man is trying to hurt you. It's always personal.
"[On the support of Philadelphia fans] It means a lot because Philadelphia is a fighting city. The support of the Latino community means a lot. There has never been a Latino world champion that has come out of Philadelphia. I have Latino kids come up to me everyday and thank me and say they look up to me. I want to keep holding it down for my city.
"Every fight, my fan base is grows. That's how it is supposed to be. I'm happy that my city's following me.
"I've been going to this gym since I was 10 years old. Everyone here knows me. Kids I grew up with tell me to keep doing my thing. They pay attention and recognize the hard work.
"140 [pounds] is a great division. I have been at 140 since the amateurs. I think I have two or three more left at this weight.
"You are going to see the best Danny Garcia on April 27. I am predicting a fourth round knockout.
"I don't really have anything to say to him [Judah]. I am going to do what I do best, and punch him in the mouth."
ANGEL GARCIA, Garcia's Father & Trainer
"Danny doesn't care what people say, but he is the champ.
"The truth hurts. Zab Judah fought Vernon Paris a year ago. Paris gave him nine rounds. Zab had his day. This is a new era of fighting. This is the Danny Swift era. He is the champion of the world.
"When Danny is fighting, I am in the ring with him. His opponent is fighting two spirits, not just one.
"The fighters needed someone to step up to the plate and SHOWTIME stepping up is the best thing that they ever did.
"Viva SHOWTIME!
"I train him, he fights them and Al Haymon picks them. At 140 pounds, no one can beat the champ.
"When it comes to the injury, things happen. He is on his A Game now.
"People say Danny is a basic fighter, but come on...he is the champion of the world.
"Danny went to college...he got his degree [in the ring]. A few more years he will get his masters.
"People are always going to talk. I don't care what they say. I know we're happy. Danny has more haters than lovers, but those are the people that are going to come see him. As long as they pay the money to see him, I'm happy."

OSSIE DURAN LOOKING FOR BIG FIGHTS‏

Middleweight contender Ossie Duran is looking for a breakthrough fight and has his eye set on a potential rematch with Fernando Guerrero.

Duran and Guerrero met on October 10, 2009 that ended up with Guerrero winning a majority decision in his hometown in Salisbury, Maryland.

In that fight, Duran scored a knockdown in the tenth and final round for which there was controversy.

“He was knocked down and he had to be helped back in the ring” with seconds left, said Duran’s advisor Vinny LaManna.

“Look at the scores and you can tell who really won that fight”, continued LaManna when referring to the tallies that read 97-93, 96-94 and 95-95 in favor of Guerrero.

“its defiantly a fight we want at this point

Duran of Paterson, New Jersey via Accra, Ghana has maybe the most deceiving record in the sports as he is 26-10-2 with ten knockouts.

He has fought some of the best in Guerrero, James Kirkland, Eromesele Albert, and Brandon Gonzales. In his last bout he lost yet another controversial decision to Avtandil Khurtsidze in Russia for the WBC Silver Championship.

“Some of the bouts he clearly won and got screwed on the decision. He clearly beat Gonzales on SHO BOX and he fought great in Russia. Now we are back to the drawing board and weather it’s a Guerrero or someone like Kelly Pavlik or Lucian Bute, Ossie will be ready for the challenge and perform at a high level”.

Fernando Guerrero’s 1st main event Friday night at home in Maryland Headlines vs Norman in PrizeFightTV.org PPV show in Salisbury

SOUTHHAVEN, Miss.– Undefeated middleweight prospect Fernando Guerrero fights in his first main event Friday night, headlining the “Boxing’s Future Champions” pay-per-view pro card, in front of his passionate hometown fans at Wicomico Civic Center in Salisbury, Maryland.

“Boxing’s Future Champions,” presented by Prize Fight Boxing, will air on PPV at www.PrizeFightTV.com, starting at 8 PM/ET, for only $4.95.

“We’re excited to launch this series and bring world-class boxing to diehard fans all over,” promoter Brian Young said. “For a nominal fee fans can watch a first-class production featuring tomorrow’s champions today. We have six unbeaten fighters, including two former International amateur champions, and two pairs of brothers on this card.”

Guerrero (13-0, 11 KOs), born in the Dominican Republic, makes Salisbury his home and he regularly fights there before a packed house. He has already fought twice on ESPN and once on Showtime. The talented southpaw takes on Brian “The Assassin” Norman in the 8-round main event. The 22-year-old Guerrero captured a gold medal at the World Cadet Junior Olympics and 2007 USA National Championships, among his more notable amateur accomplishments. Norman went the distance against Jean Pascal and he has also been in the ring against Henry Buchanan.

“It feels good knowing I’ll be fighting in my first main event,” Guerrero noted, “but every time I’ve fought at home, I felt that I was in the main event because everybody left after my fight. Now, everybody knows I’m in the main event.”

The 6-round co-feature pits 2007 World Golden Gloves champion Shawn Porter (8-0, 6 KOs), arguably the top US amateur boxer of the 21st century, against upset-minded junior middleweight Dion Savage (5-0, 3 KOs), in a rare match-up of unbeaten prospects. Porter, a 2008 US OIympic Team alternate, is a complete fighter who has tremendous upside.

Philadelphia super middleweight Farah Enis (10-0, 5 KOs) puts his undefeated record on the line against another unbeaten prospect, Bobby Jordan (6-0, 2 KOs), in an 8-round bout.

Also on the undercard is exciting middleweight Dominic Wade (2-0, 2 KOs) versus. Anthony Cannon (4-12, 1 KO) and Fernando’s older brother, Alex Guerrero, making his pro debut against cruiserweight Rodrika Ray (2-1, 1 KO) in a pair of 4-round bouts, plus Farah’s older brother, Derrick “Pooh” Ennis, Jr. (17-2, 12 KOs), faces junior middleweight Joshua “Poison” Onyango (14-17, 11 KOs) in an 8-round match.

See you at the Fights.
Thanks for your time.
