"I hope this fight lasts longer than my last. The Liverpool fans were amazing for the Lo Greco fight, but I believe Birmingham really can bring something special, these guys make noise.

"We are only going to keep moving up. We know Vargas wants to make a name for himself. Eddie said this guy kept pestering him to fight me, so that means he's seen something to beat me.

"Let's see. I never go in thinking it will be easy.

"I'm still only 31, still young and feel I can spar and run like all these young guns, I have so much energy.
"'I'm a fresh chicken, it's all about the style and experience, I push myself and train very hard."
