Santos-Rivera-Lyakhovich-Beck Quotes.

DANIEL SANTOS (29-2-1, 20 KOs)

“I am not worried about Rivera. I am here to do my job. To me, it is like getting up everyday. I do not worry about it because I train correctly. I have been training for three months. I will not try to finish it beforehand, but if I see the opportunity, I will go after the knockout.”

JOSE ANTONIO RIVERA (37-4-1, 24 KOs)

“I will be there 100 percent to win this fight. I have only trained three weeks so far, but I just fought in April and am in great shape.”

OWEN BECK (24-1, 18 KOs)

“This fight is going to be good. I am bringing fireworks. Training camp has been good, and I feel most confident. I will definitely walk out with a victory. If the people want to know what Owen Beck will bring, I can guarantee a knockout. This fight is a big challenge, but I am looking ahead to fighting a bigger fight against a bigger name.”

SERGEI LIAKOVICH (22-1, 14 KOs)

“I feel great. I have had a great camp. I will be ready. I am 110 percent ready, and as far as I am concerned, Owen Beck is in a whole lot of trouble. He is a tough guy, but come Sept. 3, I will have many questions that he will not have answers to.”
