“I haven’t talked to anybody about the guy. I didn’t even know who he was until Victor Conte brought him up and it went all over the place. First of all, I don’t know, maybe they can get a translator so they can understand this, but I’ve never said anything about Heredia. As a matter of fact, I didn’t even know the guy’s name until it was brought to my attention…I saw the YouTube video and he’s filing paperwork. Either he’s completely stupid and can’t read or he’s in desparate need of money and he’s filing some frivoulous lawsuit and he thinks that I’ll pay something just to make it go away. Actually, I’ll do better than that because, for sure, this will be the last paycheck he gets in boxing, and for sure from Marquez, I’m willing to bet my check against his check that my guy knocks his guy out,” stated world-class strength and conditioning coach Alex Ariza, who set the record straight regarding accusations that he made defamatory comments about Angel Heredia, Marquez’s strength and conditioning coach. You don’t want to miss what else he had to say. Check it out!
BT: What’s going on bro? Man, did you do any interviews somewhere that I didn’t know about? During Marquez’s conference call, a couple of reporters kept bringing up your name as if you couldn’t get his strength and conditioning coach off your mind. I could have sworn the only thing you said was that you would beat him just like you beat Victor Conte?
AA: I haven’t talked to anybody about the guy. I didn’t even know who he was until Victor Conte brought him up and it went all over the place. First of all, I don’t know, maybe they can get a translator so they can understand this, but I’ve never said anything about Heredia. As a matter of fact, I didn’t even know the guy’s name until it was brought to my attention that there was people from Usain Bolt’s training camp training him, which means more than one, not some fat Mexican in slippers, okay? I was assuming he had a training team, not that dude. Secondly, it was Victor Conte who outed him. I’ve never said anything about Heredia, Hernandez, or Guadalupe, or whatever his name is; I don’t even know him from a can of paint and after I heard who he was, or whatever, I forgot about him 10 seconds after the phone call when I hung up the phone. So whatever, you know, love affair that Victor Conte is upset about that he had with the guy and that it didn’t work out, leave me out of it. I couldn’t begin to care less about what he’s doing, what he had done in his past, or anything other than that. It’s not like all of a sudden all these bells and whistles are going off about who he is and what he’s done. I don’t give a baker’s fuck. That same shit went off when Victor Conte broke onto the scene and that hack didn’t make me any more nervous than this guy did, so I’m not going to lose any sleep about what he’s doing, what he’s not doing; any of that shit. So Marquez needs to go find a translator or he needs to learn how to read, one of the them, because I didn’t say anything about his strength and conditioning team, and I could give a shit about what he’s doing over there, or what he’s not doing, because unless Jesus is really seriously in his corner helping him out, he doesn’t have a shot.
