As Tugstsogt Nyambayar gets ready to challenge Chris Colbert this weekend in a Showtime main event, Nyambayar appeared at today’s final press conference to make it clear that he’s coming to rumble and isn’t getting at all psyched out by Colbert’s brash talk. Nyambayar says even with only a couple of weeks notice to prepare for this fight he’s more than ready to take care of business. Check out some quotes from Nyambayar below.
Tugstsogt Nyambayar
“I’m really excited for this fight. It’s my first fight at 130 pounds and I want to show what I can do. I’m ready for this opportunity.
“Just know this, we are here to win. My team is here to win. I’m ready for Chris Colbert. That’s it.
“I don’t care that I’m fighting on short notice at a higher weight. I believe in myself. I can fight at 122, I can fight at 126 and I can fight at 130.
“Two weeks’ notice is enough for me. If I didn’t take the fight, Colbert wouldn’t have a fight. So he should be thankful. Let’s see what happens. I’m going to whoop his ass.
“I believe in my speed and I believe in my power. I believe in myself. I just want to test myself. This is a good opportunity versus a good fighter.”
“I don’t think that he can stop me. Watch me on Saturday night. I’m ready.
“I’m not worried about anything he says. I’m just focused on the sight. I really believe in myself and that I’m going to hurt him on Saturday night.
“Colbert has similar speed compared to Gary Russell Jr., so it’s not going to be anything I haven’t seen before. The adjustments from the Russell fight have been made in the gym over time.
“I’m very happy to be fighting at Dignity Health Sports Park because Los Angeles is my second home. It’s very exciting to be fighting here and with a crowd there watching. The Mongolian fans are going to show up on Saturday.”
