What they said
Errol Spence Jr: “This is going to be a tough fight because of Shawn’s style. He has a come-forward style and he likes to throw a lot of punches. He has a lot of will and he’s going to help make this a great fight.
“I’m confident in my abilities and confident that I will perform to the best of my abilities. I believe that no matter what Shawn brings to the ring, I’ll have an answer for it.”
Shawn Porter: “Spence is a tactical fighter. I know they’ll have a good game plan but I’m confident in my abilities and in my corner.
“Errol and I are likeable and respectable guys, but we give it all in the ring. Fights like this are going to help the sport of boxing.
“I don’t just want to challenge Errol Spence Jr., and I took on this fight because I want to be the guy who beats him and takes his 0. And I think Kell Brook challenged him, but I’m here to have my hand raised at the end of the night.”
