QUOTES

ANGULO: “Of course I am ready. I don’t like to predict my fights, but he had better expect that I am prepared to fight for 12 hard rounds.”

JULIO: “I feel great! I made the weight real well. I am ready for tomorrow; ready to go. I know this fight won’t last 12 rounds. He won’t go 12 rounds.”

RAMOS: “I feel real good. Real good and I predict a victory. I’ll have a lot of fans here rooting me on and I plan to put on a good show for them.”

MOLINA (on his opponent struggling to make weight for the second straight fight. Is it frustrating for him): “Yes and no, because I do what I gotta do to make the weight. But I have managers and trainers to handle that. My main job is to fight. And that’s what I’ve prepared for. I feel so good that I feel like Superman. I predict a great fight.”

JAMES: “It feels great to be out here in Ontario, California. It feels great to be on a Goossen Tutor card. I appreciate them having me. Tomorrow I plan to show a lot of what my ability is and what I can do. I’m gonna try and wear my opponent down and get him out in the third round.”
