PRESS CONFERENCE QUOTES

Joey McCreedy: "I don't do a lot of talking; I fight in the ring. I respect Otis for coming up here. He's a great fighter. He's been in the ring with (Jeff) Lacy and (Danny) Green, well, not for very long with Green. I said I'd knock him out in five and I will knock him out in five, or earlier. He's a warrior and I'm a warrior. It's going to be a great fight. After I win this fight I'll be looking for bigger fights."

Otis Griffin: "This is my first time this way in a long time. I spent a little of my life in New Jersey, but the chill isn't welcome. I am a devout Christian. I've been fighting six years as a pro in four different countries and five title fights. My career started on a reality TV show. All through this I never remember being disrespected like Mr. McCreedy has. You have woken an angry giant. He'll realize real killers don't talk. Real killers don't talk."

Danny O'Connor: "I'm looking forward to a great night of fights tomorrow."

James Hope: "I'm guaranteeing I'll give the best I've got. You (O'Connor) can't handle my best. No disrespect, I've got to put you out to continue."

Jaime Clampitt: "It's been tough coming back from having my baby. It's been great. I want to thank all my fans in Rhode Island and Rachel."

Rachel Clark: "I'm always grateful to step in the ring. I thank Jaime. She's not a slouch and neither am I. To be the best you have to beat the best. The best is yet to come."

Vladine Biosse: "I want to thank Jeffrey for coming here and taking the fight. The way I feel, let's get it on. This is my fifth fight and Jeffrey is a veteran. This fight will set the tone for my career. I always give everything to give fans what they came for. It's going to be a great show. I've prepared very well. I leave it all in the ring. I'm coming to win."

Jeffrey Osbourne: "I'm here to fight. I'm honored to get this chance. Biosse, let's get it on tomorrow night."
