ZAB JUDAH, Former Four-Time and Two-Division World Champion
“You’ve got a hungry Zab Judah.  Get your seatbelt on because it’s going to be a roller coaster on February 9th.
“When you come into Brooklyn you have to show some respect.  [To Garcia] Take your ass whooping and head down I-95. 
“Danny is a cool, calm fighter.  His dad is the mouth.
“I am not perfect.  I make mistakes.  I got mad.
“I am too fast, too slick and too strong for Garcia.  February 9th is going to be fun.
“My first title fight was on SHOWTIME and now I have a chance to win the unified title [on SHOWTIME].
“It’s a dream to have an arena right in my borough.  After 16 years as a professional, I am going to be able to give my borough the championship of the world.”
ANGEL GARCIA, DANNY’S FATHER & TRAINER
“Danny is blessed.  I am blessed because of Danny.  I train him, Al [Haymon] picks ‘em and Danny fights ‘em.
“Zab was a champion, that was his time, his era.  There’s a new era.  It’s about Philly right now.
“Danny is still undefeated.  We’re not leaving those titles in Brooklyn.”
BERNARD HOPKINS, President of Golden Boy East
“A lot of fighters have made history in New York City, including myself.  What better way to start the second show at Barclays Center than with a fight like this one?  Golden Boy put on a great show in October and we are coming back with another great show on February 9th.
“Zab can’t be underestimated or disrespected.  He always brings his ‘A’ game.  Everyone knows Zab comes to fight.  He brings it.  Garcia, a Philly guy, is representing himself, his family and the City of Brotherly Love.
“They love Zab Judah in Brooklyn like they love Mike Tyson.
“This will be a test for Danny to disprove to any doubters out there.  He’s taking on someone he doesn’t have to fight…a living legend.”
