“Gennady needs to beat Canelo, destroy him and break the aura around him. It’s a fight that will have give everything he has. This is the fight that will define Gennady’s future and he knows it. He come to feel the frustration of not getting the fights he wanted, those big ones. But now he is here and he will take advantage of the opportunity,” promised Sanchez.
Abel and Gennady working in the splendid isolation of Big Bear, striving for the best physical condition possible and solid strategy to show in no uncertain terms, that he’s the best mifddlweight of today.
Gennady commented: “For me, this fight is historic, Canelo is a good opponent and I am a great champion. I know we will go to a war and we both will give a great show to the fans. They surely deserve it, because they have waited so long for this fight. I can’t wait for the bell to ring
“I want to win this fight because, I think that this win will be historic, like Sugar Ray Leonard – did it versus (Marvin) Hagler. I remember many great champions like Carlos Monzon, Sugar Ray Leonard, Marvin Hagler, Bernard Hopkins “There are a lot of big stories in this division.”
Regarding his age, fresh faced Gennady grinned broadly, insisting he feels in excellent shape, and that being 35 years old will not be any disadvantage against the 27 year old stripling Mexican.
