What has been said?
"I had to come out of the gym and get working because I've got a family to pay for,"
"I was very close, to be honest. It was probably one of the toughest years of mine and my partner's lives,"
"I quite like it. I've always been that underdog guy, from my amateur days. I've had to borrow boots, shorts and fight kit,"
"It is huge," he said about the magnitude of the event he is part of.
"We are looking to secure this world title and that is when it becomes really, really life-changing," Massey said.
"That is what I have dreamed of since being a little boy, since starting at the age of 11."
