Mack upset following the cancelation of the Jan 30 card

Yusaf Mack is upset following the cancelation of the card on the 30th January, Mack has had a rough time over the last few months, first a contest with Karo Murat falling through and now the fight with Glen Johnson. Mack said “I understand why the show has been cancelled and my heart goes out to Berto and the whole country of Haitia, but I am dissapointed I wasn’t given the chance to show the world the new Yusaf Mack, I have really turned my life around in the last two years with the help of my trainer John Tandy and my management team Rory Donadio and Greg Cipriano, I have won my last 5 fights and at last now I was given the opportunity to showcase myself in front of the world..

“I have been in camp since early Novemebr and I am in the best shape of my life, we have all worked really hard and I am dissapointed that HBO didn’t feel the card was still strong enough to continue the show without Shane and Berto. Johnson and me would have been a classic fight, Daniel Ponce De Leon, Sergio Mora and Vivian Harris were all on the card as well which made for a great show even without Shane and Berto. I am now hoping that another fight with Johnson or a fight with Taroris Cloud will be made as soon as possible so I can get focused again and show everyone what I am made of, the light heavyweight division can be one of the best divisions out there at the moment, I feel that I am a big part of it I just need to show everyone that I am no longer that guy that lost out to Berrio and Andrade, I wasn’t training like a world champion then and my legs let me down, I am now. Other guys have been handed chances without really deserving it, Pascal was coming off a loss when he fought and won the WBC title, as was Campillo when he fought for the WBA, now Chris Henry who I have already beaten recently, is now fighting for the WBA interim title, I have won my last 5 fights 4 against guys who have fought for world titles, it is my turn. I will fight any of them, Cloud, Johnson, Pascal, Dawson, just give me a chance and you will see who the new king of the light heavyweight division will be.
