I'm 90 percent sure we're coming home with the belt or I wouldn't take the fight right now.

Actually, the 10 days he took off did him real good letting his body just rest. And when he came back, he was just like a madman.

We put a lot of time in to get him ready. He was 100 percent ready for the fight. What are you going to do?

Nobody wants to take their chances with a tough 2-0 17-year-old. You lose to a 17-year-old, it's kind of like degrading to them if they lose to a kid.

That's definitely a big opportunity for us to showcase Joe. Not bad for his third fight.

It's huge. For me, it's playing in my home state. But, right now, we have to find a way to bounce back.
