Eimantas Stanionis:
“I’m so excited to get back in the ring, I feel like a kid in a candy store who gets to choose any kind of candy he wants,” Eimantas Stanionis said. “This is especially exciting for me because I am a big fan of Canelo Alvarez. I love watching his fights and as a kid, I dreamed of fighting on Cinco de Mayo in front of all those great Mexican fans. It motivates me even more to give them a great fight. I know that Gabriel Maestre is tough and has power. We fought in the amateurs and I know it’s a great matchup of styles. I’m going to bring the action and so will he. You can definitely expect fireworks on May 4.”
Gabriel Maestre:
“I’ve wanted to fight Stanionis for years and get revenge from our amateur match,” Gabriel Maestre said. “It was a tough close fight and I’m ready to face him again for another war. We are ready for a great fight and to leave the ring with my hand raised. May 4 will be a historic day for me and Venezuela.”
