Here is the full Conference video courtesy of www.boricuaboxing.com and quotes from the presser.
I don’t talk much. I let my fists do the talking in the ring and come Saturday I’ll be the new unified champion. Were both powerful, both quick and exciting to watch. It’s going to be a great show. It’s going to be an exciting fight, if you hit me once, I’ll hit you twice back because I’m a warrior.”
Zab Judah, IBF Junior Welterweight World Champion & Former Five Time World Champion
I’m ready and I’m excited. I’m very blessed to be back in this position. I know Amir Khan and Team Khan have prepared themselves for a war. I just think that over the years of me being in this position, I’m prepared for Saturday night. I’m prepared for what’s gonna happen. Amir Khan is new to this situation. He’s a young guy.”
“People have been getting this stuff about Zab Judah, 33 years old, is an old fighter, mixed up. What you gotta understand is that I turned professional at 18 years old. I was champion by 20 years old and I reigned ever since.”
“I’ve got my second wind. I’ve lived my years as Zab Judah just being Zab Judah, tough guy, Brooklyn, whatever. I’m here to say today, that don’t pay man, just live your life and be happy. Saturday night I’m gonna give you guys the best Zab Judah that you guys are looking for. He’s here!”
Freddie Roach, Khans Trainer
We have a tough fight ahead of us. Zab is a great fighter and we watched a lot of tapes of the ‘new’ Zab and we’re ready. We had a great camp, 10 weeks with no traveling, no jet lag.”
Pernell Whitaker, Judah’s Trainer
As you can see over to my left [in front of Judah] there are five world titles, I myself have won six world titles in my career, then I turn over to my right (in front of Khan) and I see one.”
“Put your seat belt on, get your popcorn and get ready. It’s going to be a show.”
Alex Ariza, Khan’s Strength & Conditioning Trainer
“Zab is very skilled we don’t take him lightly at all. There’s going to be fireworks on Saturday night.”
“Its fights like these that bring boxing back.”
Richard Schaefer, CEO of Golden Boy Promotions
The left side of the table [Judah’s side] is living in the past. Golden Boy is living in the future and that is on this side of the dais [Khan’s side]. On the undercard we have Jamie Kavanagh, Ronny Rios, James Kirkland, Peter Quillin and Gary Russell Jr., who have a combined record of 89-1…We have the young stars behind us sitting here with Amir Khan. Amir and these young fighters are the future of boxing.”
“This is truly a battle between two of the most exciting fighters in the sport and I’m excited to be a part of it.”
Kathy Duva, CEO of Main Events
This is the fight that Zab Judah wanted. We are so happy to be here and delighted that this fight was made. Everyone on Team Judah agreed that this was the right fight.”
Kery Davis, Senior Vice President of Programming, HBO Sports
People say this is a classic case of youth vs. experience, but there are many interesting story lines in this fight.”
Bob Halloran, Director of Sports, MGM Resorts International
You know when Golden Boy comes, it’s not just a good main event but a great undercard too.”
