Jermell Charlo: I feel like I am fighting in front of President Obama in our Nation's Capitol

JERMELL CHARLO, USBA Junior Middleweight Champion

"Fighting in D.C. is an awesome feeling because I feel like I am fighting in front of President Obama in our Nation's Capitol. It's a great experience and I am enjoying every little bit so far. I am happy to be welcomed to this city and the weather is not affecting me. I am here to put on a show and be victorious on Saturday.

"It's exciting to be fighting on this SHOWTIME card, the first on of the year. Last year I was the first fight on SHOWTIME EXTREME and this year I am the first fight on SHOWTIME. It is a great feeling.

"I know Gabriel Rosado is a tough fighter. I just need to be ready to fight. Training camp was excellent. I am just ready for Saturday to get this over with and move on with the rest of my career.

"Doing these shoots, is part of making boxing a career. I've been here before.. At the end of the day we might be able to make even more of a professional career of being in front of the lights and on TV.''

Lamont Peterson: He is small, but kind of the size I thought he would be

LAMONT PETERSON, IBF Junior Welterweight World Champion

"I feel great. I feel like I had a good training camp and I am just ready to go Saturday night.
"This weather is typical winter. Sometimes it's going to snow. Sometimes it's going to be cold, but we get through it. We show up still so I don't expect it to affect the crowd or take anything away from the fight.

"It was pretty cool to meet Dierry Jean for the first time today at the SHOWTIME shoot. We didn't say anything to each other. No words. We did a face-off, but that was it. I came in when he was here [at the boxing gym], we did our faceoff and then he left. I wasn't expecting to say anything to him and it's going to be that way. He is small, but kind of the size I thought he would be. Size doesn't mean anything.

"This was a better camp overall for me. My body is in better condition.''

I'd like to hear Groves side surely there is more to the story as Groves has been calling for a rematch non stop and even pleaded with the IBF to order an immediate rematch. Meanwhile Froch kept saying no rematch and recently said he's fighting Chavez Jr.

Bryant Jennings fight was good, great performance my Jennings amazing he's only been boxing for five years he looks like a seasoned vet.

Peterson looked like he was a full weight class above Jean curious to know what the in ring weights were.

What you guys need to look out for is Antonio Orozco! he reall has legit KO power and I do see him as a legit contender real soon. Plus, I would love to see Curtis stevens vs Kid Chocolate, I got bStevens on that one

great fights! Petterson whooped Jean ass, gave him a boxing lesson. happy for Bryant Jennings, big fights ahead for him.

Garcia was good, he got tagged a lot(he is not ready for Pacquiao). looking forward to his Gamboa match, thats a tough one to call.

Rosado should of boxed Charlo more instead of looking for a knockout the whole fight
