Do you suppose you possibly can knock Josh out?
“Yeah. I’ve been ringside for his final three fights, I’ve seen him get damage. I do know he’s robust. I don’t imagine the folks he’s been damage by hit as arduous as me and on the similar time aren’t as calculated as me, so they could land a number of good photographs however are they good finishers? Have they received good set ups? I don’t suppose they’ve. I believe Lara is a giant puncher, not calculated, he doesn’t do what he must do. He’s not an ideal finisher within the sense like, will get somebody damage and is aware of what he’s received to do to set it up. He rushes generally, however I imagine I’m one of many largest punchers within the division. Not solely that, I can set it up and I’m calculated.”
How does it play out?
“I imagine he’s going to make the identical errors he makes and do the identical issues he at all times does. I do know that I’m going to be dominant the vast majority of the struggle. I’m going to beat him up at instances as properly. I’m right here to win and he’s right here to win as properly. I do know what I have to do to win and I’m assured of doing it.”

It have been me who completed on high on the finish. I nonetheless really feel like I’m in my prime. I actually do. I’m feeling high of my sport proper now.”
