ON FIGHTING IN PHILADELPHIA

Bates–“I have fought in Philly twice already, and this will be the 3rd time. It is a great crowd there, and they have shown me love. It makes me want to go in there and fight.”

Aleem–“To be able to fight in Philadelphia is a good accomplishment. I have fought most of my fights in the Midwest, so it is a great opportunity to make some new fans.”

WHAT DOES A WIN DO FOR YOUR CAREER

Bates–“I am focused on this fight, and I only take 1 fight at a time. After this win, I will talk to my manager and promoter and see what is next. It’s going down, and someone is getting knocked out. My fans can follow me on Instagram at _Dream_Crusher_Bates.

Aleem–“A Win does a lot. It opens up other doors. I have mentally put in a lot of hard work and focus to stay undefeated. Not only winning, but looking good is a must.
