PhilBoxing.com




HOLLISTER, CA (January 14, 2016) - With fight week just days away, Robert "The Ghost" Guerrero hosted a media workout in the Bay Area Wednesday to discuss his primetime welterweight world title showdown with Danny "Swift" Garcia on Saturday, January 23 that headlines Premier Boxing Champions (PBC) on FOX and FOX Deportes from STAPLES Center in Los Angeles.

The stacked card features a welterweight battle between undefeated Sammy "The Sergeant" Vasquez and Los Angeles' Aron Martinez plus a heavyweight attraction pits 2012 U.S. Olympian Dominic Breazeale and rugged contender Amir "Hardcore" Mansour. Televised bouts begin at 4 p.m. PT inside of the arena.

Tickets for the live event, which is promoted by TGB Promotions in association with Swift Promotions, are priced at $300, $200, $100, $50 and $25, not including applicable fees and service charges, and are on sale now. Tickets can be purchased at AXS.com or by phone at 888-929-7849 or at STAPLES Center.

The media day took place at the Hollister Boxing Gym and featured Guerrero's father and trainer Ruben Guerrero. Here is what the participants had to say Wednesday:

ROBERT GUERRERO

"All the hard work is done. We got one more day of sparring before we head out to Los Angeles next week. My dad and I are putting the final touches of our game plan together. We had great sparring and everyone is going to see a great fight on FOX January 23.

"Danny Garcia is very confident coming into this fight. He said he's going to knock me out in five rounds. His dad said they're bringing the storm to California. They both said it's going to be the Danny Garcia show, so we'll see. All I know is I'm coming to fight. I'm going to do all my talking in the ring with my fists.

"The Garcia's can try to downplay the Mexican vs. Puerto Rican rivalry all they want, but the fact is, this rivalry has been the cornerstone of great boxing matches since before I was born. We are both born in America, but our roots go back to Mexico and Puerto Rico, so expect the rivalry to continue. I can't wait to silence all the critics who are writing me off."

RUBEN GUERRERO

"I respect Danny Garcia and his father Angel. Together they are undefeated. They feel invincible. Our motivation going into this fight is to give them their first loss. Everyone thinks my son is washed up, but they will see that he still has a lot left in the tank. Training camp is almost done and Robert knows what he has to do. It's time to send a message to the welterweight division.

"I come from a big family and we all had it rough growing up working in the fields. We Mexicans have never had anything given to us. We had to work hard to get what we want. It's time to represent all the hard working Mexicans going through the struggle. Robert is ready to represent La Raza. You better believe the Chicanos are going to be deep at STAPLES Center. My son is coming to throw down!"
