GERVONTA DAVIS:
โI was in New York for the Thurman fight about three weeks ago and got off track a little bit. I was heavy there, but once I got back into the groove and back to training it was fine. I feel fine. Making 130 is not a problem. Itโs not a distraction. I feel fine. Iโm not dehydrated and my face isnโt sunken. Iโll be ready to go tomorrow.โ
HUGO RUIZ:
โItโs kind of expected. Heโs missed weight before, so itโs not surprising. I feel great at this weight of 130 pounds. This is the weight I want to be at. Iโd fight every month if I could.โ
MARIO BARRIOS:
โThe meaning of this fight is to keep showcasing my talents and to represent my city of San Antonio. Of course Zamora is dangerous, but come Saturday night Iโll be more dangerous.
If it were up to me Iโd be fighting for a world title tomorrow night.โ
JAVIER FORTUNA:
โIโm not looking for the knockout. If it comes, it comes. If it doesnโt come, then Iโll take it by decision.โ
