Luevano: " I'll Beat Nicky Cook in London"

WBO #1 rated featherweight Steven Luevano of LaPuente, Calif. said he will "fight my fight" which will include counter-punching and "using my brain" to conquor unbeaten WBO #2 rated Nicky Cook at the O2 Arena in London on Saturday, July 14.

During a conference call today with London fight writers, Luevano said "Nicky is great fighter. He has a lot of movement and he likes to come straight at you.

Luevano has a record of 32-1; Cook is 27-0.

"I will counter-punch, move and make Cook miss - then make him pay. I'm going to London to win," said Luevano who has been training for weeks in Oxnard, Calif.

Luevano added "I am going into a hostile situation when I walk into that ring. I watched the Ricky Hatton fight and saw all of the fans rooting for him. Everyone will be against me but once it is just me and him I will focus on the fight, beat Nicky Cook and bring home the world title."

"Steven has worked very hard for years to get to this title fight," Bob Arum said. "All of us at Top Rank are very excited about this fight."

Frank Warren is promoting the event in London. Cook vs. Luevano will be for the vacant WBO Featherweight Championship.
