Ricardo Rocky Juarez Quotes:
"When I was offered the fight
with Marquez, I was thinking positively. I know I am going to
beat him, there was never a doubt in my mind.
"I have learned a lot from my
loss to Barrera, I won't let my emotions get the best of me.
"I think once we start
exchanging punches, Marquez is going to know that he will have
to be on the defensive.
"We're looking forward to
going in the ring and banging punches.
"I've stood next to Marquez,
and he is not that much taller than me. I think that people
are underestimating my boxing skills.
"I surprise a lot of fighters
when I get in the ring. After the fight when they talk
to me, they say ‘I did not think you could hit me from that
far outside.'
"Marquez will be surprised
when we step into the ring come Saturday night on SHOWTIME.
"For those people who doubt
me, and say this will not be my fight, they are wrong. I am
very confident and sure that this is my time. This is the same
feeling I had when I competed in the Olympics. It’s just
a natural feeling."
