Danny Garcia Vs. Rod Salka” “DANNY GARCIA VS. ROD SALKA” FINAL PRESS CONFERENCE QUOTES BROOKLYN, N.Y.(August 7, 2014) – With just days to go until their respective bouts, fighters on the “Danny Garcia vs. Rod Salka” fight card hosted a final press conference Thursday at Barclays Center before they fight this Saturday, August 9. Main event fighters Danny “Swift” Garcia and “Lightning” Rod Salka were joined by fellow SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING® participants Lamont Peterson, Edgar “El Camacho” Santana, Daniel “Miracle Man” Jacobs and Jarrod “Left Jab” Fletcher on the stage at Barclays Center to discuss their upcoming fights. Joining them were Sadam “World Kid” Ali, Anthony Peterson and Zachary “Zungry” Ochoa, who will fight on SHOWTIME EXTREME® prior to the SHOWTIME telecast and Prichard Colon, who fights in a non-televised bout. Here is what the fighters and participants had to say Thursday: DANNY GARCIA, Unified Super Lightweight World Champion “This is my third fight at Barclays Center and it feels like my home honestly. I love the atmosphere here. It was a privilege to be the first fighter to fight for a world title here. “I ran hundreds of miles and sparred hundreds of rounds; this is the opportunity of a lifetime for Rod Salka and he knows what’s at stake, but I trained like this is my last fight and I overlook nobody. “All of the fights I’ve been in have prepared me for this fight and to be the person I am today. I feel like a young vet. I’m going to come here Saturday night and handle my business. We’re going to call it the ‘Danny Garcia Show’ – ‘The Purge’. “My dad is my main motivation. If my dad can beat cancer, there’s nothing I can’t beat. That’s my main motivation and that’s the hunger and the fire in my heart. “I’m a boxer because I love to fight. It’s in my heart. Sometimes I win a fight and I forget to pick up my check. That’s how much I love boxing.” ANGEL GARCIA, Garcia’s Father & Trainer “Danny is ready. We had a 100% camp. In sparring he wasn’t even getting hit. I don’t know about that Puerto Rico ‘bad image.’ We didn’t lose sleep “Salka is in the wrong predicament right now because that bad image made Danny a better fighter. Danny is 100 percent. The fight is going to be a great fight. I don’t care what the people say. “They’re calling Danny ‘cherry picker, blackberry picker’ but it doesn’t matter because he still has to go out there and get his (victory). I told him to be a fighter. Nobody ever gave him anything … my job is not to worry about Salka. It’s to worry about Danny Garcia. “It’s going to be called the ‘Danny ‘Swift’ Garcia Show.’ This is going to be the Fight of the Year. “I had atage four cancer. Nothing was ever given to me. I was dying. They gave me six months to live – throat cancer at that. I had to live through a feeding tube for two years. That makes Danny who he is today! A fighter!.” ROD SALKA, Super Lightweight Contender “The talking is done. We’ve been talking about this too long and I’m sick of it. “The fight is on Saturday so be ready to come out and see a great fight. Whatever is going to happen is going to happen and I’ll talk to you guys after the fight. “I trained hard in California University of Pennsylvania. I’ve been training there ever since I was a student. It’s like a second home and helped prepare me for this fight. “The road to get here has been a long time coming. I never thought I would be in this position and here I am. “When I first started boxing, it was all about survival and staying in the game. I did everything from serving tables, and other jobs so that I could make money and keep the dream alive of getting to this day.” LAMONT PETERSON, IBF Junior Lightweight Contender “It’s fight week. We all know what time it is and I just want to say I’m ready.” EDGAR SANTANA, Junior Lightweight Contender “I had a great camp. I didn’t only train to win the fight, I trained to endure whatever Lamont has to bring. Expect a good fight from me. “I’m a man of few words but I’m going to be ready on Saturday.” DANIEL JACOBS, Middleweight Contender “God is good. It’s a pleasure to be back. This is my home. I fought here twice before and the love I get here in this building is tremendous “My late trainer Victor Roundtree passed away and can’t be with us for this special moment so this fight is dedicated to his memory. “I just want to thank Jarrod Fletcher for giving me this opportunity and to come over here and fight half way across the world – actually all the way across the world. He’s a gentleman and I have a lot of respect for him. “It’s been very special to get my story to reach the masses and inspire millions across the world. And if I do win, I will be the first cancer survivor to be world champion.” JARROD FLETCHER, Middleweight Contender “This has been a dream of mine since I was a little kid and it’s been 20 years in the making. I’m fighting Danny Jacobs who is quite the man — and has got a great story about him. “It’s been a long road but I can’t wait for Saturday night. This is my chance and I’m going to take it.” SADAM ALI, Undefeated Welterweight & 2008 U.S. Olympian “I’ve been working hard and I’m ready to perform on Saturday night. “I’m not only excited about performing myself, but I’m excited about watching everyone else on the card perform. “Thank you for all the support and I’ll see you Saturday night.” ANTHONY PETERSON, Lightweight Contender “Everyone on the card knows it’s going to be a great event on Saturday night. Lamont (Peterson), you know what we do, we are going to go in there and handle our business and be done with it.” ZACHARY OCHOA, Undefeated Super Lightweight Prospect “I’m excited to be here at Barclays Center today and especially on Saturday. I’m ready to fight and I’ve been training hard. “For the past month Golden Boy Promotions has been doing a hell of a job. It’s an honor for me to be fighting on this card with all of these fighters. I can’t wait.” ERIC GOMEZ, Vice President of Golden Boy Promotions “We’re very happy to be here once again in Brooklyn at Barclays Center. I think we have a terrific card for everyone “Barclays Center is quickly becoming the capital for championship boxing here on the East Coast. “Danny Garcia is one of the most exciting fighters in the sport. He comes to win. He comes to knock you out. He has been fighting his whole life. Danny has proven himself every time he gets in the ring. He was supposed to lose to Erik Morales, he knocked him out, he was supposed to lose to Amir Khan, he knocked him out. He was supposed to lose to Zab Judah and he beat him. “These are the toughest fights. Not only to be a world champion but you have to be able to prove you belong. That is all Danny does. Proves he belongs every single fight. “People have had their own opinions about the main event. This will be an exciting fight. I’ve never seen Danny Garcia in a boring fight and this is Rod Salka’s time to fight. Ever since we’ve worked with Rod Salka, he’s always wanted to fight the best. He is going to take full advantage. He’s been working very hard for this fight. It’s do or die for him. When you have those elements it makes for a great fight.” BRETT YORMARK, CEO of Barclays Center “We’re thrilled to host another great night of boxing Saturday night; Oscar and his team have assembled a great fight card. “I’m excited to see Danny Garcia back at Barclays Center; this is definitely his home away from home. “I want to recognize Daniel Jacobs. I’m thrilled about what he’s going to do in front of his home crowd in Brooklyn on Saturday night. It was just a few years ago when Daniel was in the hospital and his promising boxing career was put on hold. He persevered and in many respects I believe Barclays Center served as an inspiration for him and on Saturday night, Brooklyn’s ‘Miracle Man’ fights here for a world title. “Daniel Jacobs, you epitomize everything that Brooklyn is about and I thank you for calling Barclays Center home. “This is our eighth boxing event with Golden Boy and we thank them for their commitment to bringing great fights to Barclays Center. I’d also like to think SHOWTIME for their continued dedication to showcasing Brooklyn boxing.” STEPHEN ESPINOZA, EVP & General Manager of SHOWTIME Sports “People have said and written that they know how these fights are going to end. But boxing matches are fought in the ring. We must remember that these young men have been training for hours and weeks and months for this opportunity.
