“I’m only focused on winning. My team has put me in a really great position, and I know Mayweather Promotions has big plans for me this year, as long as I continue winning and stopping whomever they put in front of me.

“I feel great. All I can say is… expect a really great fight!”

MARJOHN YAP:
“It feels great to be here in Vegas; this is a wonderful opportunity that I cannot waste. I made weight, now it’s time to get in the ring tomorrow night and show how hard I’ve worked to get here.

“I came to win, and I came to show why I deserve a title shot opportunity.”

CAMERON KRAEL:
“I feel great. I’m fighting in a very familiar place; I’ve had wars right here in this venue so I’m coming into this fight feeling comfortable and ready to fight.

“I’ve seen him fight many times before. I actually beat him back in the amateurs. His style hasn’t changed much since then.

“I have triple the number of fights as him and overall more experience. I watched his last fight against Sanjarbek Rakhmanov and he was tired by the 8^th round. He’s never fought 10 rounds. I’m going to push the pace and keep him on his toes”

KEITH HUNTER:
“I feel incredible right now. I’m probably in the best shape of my career.

“I’m coming off a big win in this same building just a few weeks ago. This is going to be a showcase fight for me. I’m going to shine tomorrow night when I step in that ring. It’s hunting season and I’m ready to fire away.”

ANDRES CORTES:
“After today, I have this in the bag. He is experienced, but I am the better fighter who wants it more and has far better skills than him.
“I’ve worked too hard to let anyone take this away from me. Like I said before, I am not leaving without the win tomorrow night.”

SERGIO LOPEZ:
“The hardest part is out of the way, now it’s time to show that I’m the better fighter. I had a great camp and I feel good going into this fight.

“I have more experience and I think it will show in the ring tomorrow night.
