QUOTES

ANGULO:  “Of course I am ready.  I don’t like to predict my fights, but he had better expect that I am prepared to fight for 12 hard rounds.” 

JULIO:  “I feel great!  I made the weight real well.  I am ready for tomorrow; ready to go.  I know this fight won’t last 12 rounds.  He won’t go 12 rounds.” 

RAMOS:  “I feel real good.  Real good and I predict a victory.  I’ll have a lot of fans here rooting me on and I plan to put on a good show for them.”

MOLINA  (on his opponent struggling to make weight for the second straight fight.  Is it frustrating for him):  “Yes and no, because I do what I gotta do to make the weight.  But I have managers and trainers to handle that.  My main job is to fight.  And that’s what I’ve prepared for.  I feel so good that I feel like Superman.  I predict a great fight.”

JAMES:  “It feels great to be out here in Ontario, California.  It feels great to be on a Goossen Tutor card.  I appreciate them having me.  Tomorrow I plan to show a lot of what my ability is and what I can do.  I’m gonna try and wear my opponent down and get him out in the third round.”
