ERROL SPENCE JR.
 
"Everyone who has seen me fight before knows it won't be a boring fight. Even if it's one-sided, it's always going to be action packed. January 20 is going to be a tremendous fight and I'm going to put on a great performance. I'm planning to dominate.
 
"Defending my title in Brooklyn will be special. I have family in New York too so it means a lot that I'll be able to defend at Barclays Center. New York is a boxing city so they really appreciate champions and know the sport.
 
"I'm excited to be fighting a guy like Lamont Peterson. I'm not fighting a regular no-name fighter. He's going to bring the best out of me because he's a true fighter. It makes the whole experience even better.
 
"The top spot in the sport is really up for grabs now and I'm coming for it. I don't care who I have to face or where, I'm going to be the last man standing. That's why we all get into this sport. I'm extremely confident in myself.
 
"Lamont and I both have big hearts and I think everyone will be able to see that in the ring. We're both smart fighters so there might be some feeling out before we get going. But I expect it to be a dogfight.
 
"This community in Dallas is very important to me. When I was growing up here there were no professional boxers from here that I could look to as a role model. Once you have the resources to give back, it's important to do it. I love being in the gym and helping the really young guys and giving them something to aspire to."
