"How hard did you train for this fight?"
Amir Rudon, Belizean Boxer, Lightweight Category
"Very very hard because I keep that in the back of my mind, the fight they had is a fight that they didn't have a choice, it's a situation with life or death so it definitely pushed me to go hard in this training camp and as you guys can see I came in under the weight limit."
"I just got to keep on winning these fights, tomorrow night plays a crucial role because if I keep winning these fights then eventually that belt right there will be around my waist and then I'll get a couple more and a couple more and then we get to the big one."
The event starts at 6:00 tomorrow night at the Civic.
