Eddy Reynoso, Caneloās trainer and manager, and Justin Gamber, Plantās trainer, joined their fighters on stage at the event in Beverly Hills. Here is what the press conference participants had to say Tuesday:
CANELO ĆLVAREZ
āYou are not on my level and you will see on November 6. You donāt want to fight now, I promise you.
āWe come from nothing and we worked hard to be here. For somebody to lie and talk trash about us, that upset Eddy. It is what it is though. We just have to show everyone who we are on November 6.
āCaleb might be on the same level as Billy Joe Saunders and Callum Smith, but heās not on my level. I respect that he isnāt here to back down. You can see from today that this is definitely going to be a good fight.
āI know what I need to do and I know a lot about him. Heās a good fighter but I know my skills. My experience is going to give me the edge in the fight. I have faced similar styles to Calebās against Floyd Mayweather, Erislandy Lara, Austin Trout and Saunders.
