Hello there boxing fans around the world thanks for joining me once again for another episode of boxing news today here on talk and fight, we’re going to start off with the story right out of new york and guess who katie taylor versus amanda serrano, big fight.
Coming up with some quotes, uh courtesy of their press conference recently held katie taylor says the amount of media we had had.
We have had to do all week was huge, i’m sick of talking about myself, but it’s been an amazing week so far.
This is definitely very different than how i started boxing when i was eight nine years old, like eddie said i had to pretend i was a boy to get fights boom.
Boxing wasn’t even sanctioned sport in ireland.
Now, here we are many years later: headlining maple, leaf gardens, madison square is the most iconic venue in boxing making history, as the biggest women’s boxing match in history is just incredible.
This is all the sacrifice that i’ve been working for for sure.
The fact this is going to be a sellout on saturday night, there’s a great appetite for female fights, and this is very special.
It’S the best versus the best, and it’s just a great boxing match.
This isn’t just the best female fight you can see.
Right now is the best fight you can watch right now, male or female.
I don’t train to lose any fights.
I train to win, i’m going to step in there confident that i’ll come out victorious.
The best part about this fight is being able to inspire the next generation.
This fight on saturday night is going to inspire a lot of young girls, and that to me is the best part about this amanda serrano.
For her part.
Had this to say, it’s been a long time and it’s finally happening now i’ll shine.
Thanks to all you guys at madison square garden, i couldn’t ask for a better place to make history once again sitting here, i made history.
I won my golden gloves here at the hulu theater.
I made history on the zone with you becoming a seven division, world champ and i plan on doing the same thing at the big garden.
My first time there i shine under pressure.
One of my goals is to become undisputed champion and she has that and i’m going up once again, two divisions to fight one of the best fighters in the world.
It’S been an amazing long journey.
Getting here to fight katie taylor time is no better than right.
Now, i’m so looking forward to saturday we are probably the two nicest fighters.
There’S no bad talk between me and katie taylor, because the fights are one inside the ring not outside.
We don’t need to talk bad about each other.
Our accomplishments got us to where we are right now and we are making history together, no matter what happens on saturday night.
This is for the fans, women in general and women in boxing and women’s boxing is going to grow even more fantastic stuff out of both katie and amanda, and we all look forward to that fight, but going on uh on the very same evening, uh halfway across The continent over in las vegas at the mgm grand arena, uh you’re, going to see oscar valdez take on shakur stevenson and these guys have been yapping it up all week as well.
Uh wbc champ oscar valdez who’s 30-0 with 23 knockouts going toto toe against wbo king shakur stevenson, 17 and 009 knockouts had their first fight week face off thursday night uh two days out from the unification showdown at the mgm grand garden arena valdez stevenson.

At the press conference, this is what oscar valdez said.

I’M anxious to step in the ring on april 30th.
It’S perfect time to have this fight right now.
Shakir stevenson is a two-time world champion two-time world champion and i’m a two-time world champion as well.
It’S the perfect time, let’s prove who’s, the best 130 pounder.
Let’S get it on april 30.
: let’s just show it.
I think this is the correct time to do it and on shakur making his pro debut in baldur’s undercard.
Just like in this fight, i was very focused on the fight that had in front of me.
I had known about shakira’s teams and i saw him in the olympics.
He was a great fighter then, and he’s turned into a great champion now i don’t remember at all that day, because i was very focused on my fight and the same way i’m focused on this fight in each and every fight.
I take things very seriously.
I just focus on one thing: beating my opponent and in reply shakira stevenson said i speak the truth.
Every time i talk, i felt like he didn’t want to fight me at 126.
.
Now we’re here at 1 30.
he was trying to fight emmanuel navrat before fighting me, but we’re here now we can’t keep talking about that.
This fight is saturday and i’m ready to fight.
I’Ve never said i’m on the pound-for-pound list.
Yet i’ve said that, after this fight, once i get past oscar valdez i’ll be on the pound-for-pound list, i’ve been waiting on this moment.
My whole life it’s taken years and years of training since i was an amateur to prepare for this moment.
I feel like i’m ready when bud crawford was in my camp.
He came and we sparred each other.
I feel like it was different from this his camp because he had canelo with him during every step of the way canal was right there next to him, telling him to how to hook it after the hook and jab.
They were with each other.
Every step of the way, so when i beat him, i’m going to feel good beating him canelo eddie renee, so the whole team uh on turning pro on valdez is on the card.
By the way i was on his undercard, i was focused on my fight, but then i saw his fight in the main event.
I was definitely thinking about me and him.
Fighting later on, i knew we’re at the same weight.
It was always in my head that we were going to fight, i think, he’s going to bang.
That’S it.
I think he’s going to try and trick me into thinking he’s going to box me and be technical, but i’m not falling for that.
I’M ready for oscar valdez who goes in there, throwing hooks and putting pressure yes alrighty, but before those two fights happen uh tonight we have a fight going on down in philadelphia, popular philadelphia, bantamweight christian carter will headline a king’s promotions event april 29th.
