JOSE SANTA CRUZ

"Leo is very well prepared as he always is. We always train 100 percent and we are ready.

"The team is ready to fight. We have one week left to rest and put some finishing touches on this camp.

"We're going to fight Martinez with our style. We're going to do whatever we need to do to win the fight. Leo is going to take the fight to him and try to counteract whatever style Martinez brings.

"It's going to be a good fight. Whichever style Martinez brings, we're going to out-maneuver him and make it a good fight. I see Leo winning a decision at least if not a knockout."
