			"I came in to knock him out in the first round. I made my mind up because the people here didn't treat us good. They were making all kinds of words to get the title from us, but I want to prove to them I'm the best in the world and I want (Barry) [[Barry McGuigan\|McGuigan]]. I will knock him out anywhere I fight him. I'm ready to fight McGuigan anytime, any day, anywhere... McGuigan is good but the way McGuigan fights there is no way he can beat me. There is no way McGuigan can go four rounds with me... I took the title from a young man and any old man that wants to challenge me then hey I'm here." - [[Azumah Nelson]] in the televised post-fight interview.
