Liam Davies: “That doesn’t bring pressure. This is what I love to do. It makes me more hungry, and it’s a big night on Saturday. That’s all that matters to me. This one is going to be the sweetest one of them all. I’m just adamant that I knock people out. That’s it. That’s what I’m going to do on Saturday night. “I’m just speaking facts. When I hit people, they can fold. That’s it. I’m good at boxing. People forget that. I might do that. I’m going to do whatever it takes to win and quiet all these haters up. Trust me, in two days you’re going to find out".
Shabaz Masoud: “I’ve always performed better when I’m the underdog and one of the reasons why I started boxing was something to prove and this is another thing for me. I got to prove everyone wrong. It does look like he’s underestimating me. But if he underestimates me, f*** around and find out, no worry. You’re going to see on Saturday. Man, just tune in. Talk is done".
