I used to always create my character and every time I created my character; I would try to find a nickname that went with my name. One time I was playing, and I saw a cannon on the trunks, and it all went. Brandon &#8216;The Cannon.&#8217; This was before I was even fighting.&#8221;<br \/>\u00a0<br \/>On his preparation: &#8220;I&#8217;ve been ready since December 3. Everyday that passes I am able to tame that inner beast and control myself a lot more. I feel that I am willing and able to get in the ring with anyone and this time around it&#8217;s Serhii Bohachuk. I believe that I have everything that I need to go into this fight and pull out a victory.&#8221;<br \/>\u00a0<br \/>On Bohachuk&#8217;s record:\u00a0&#8220;For me, when I think of his record, it&#8217;s very impressive. If I was so worried about records, I wouldn&#8217;t have taken the fight with Jermall Charlo in his backyard. This was different, getting called out. I&#8217;ve never been called out before. Now we are living through it and it&#8217;s playing out. I am excited to fight. I am dialed in.&#8221;<br \/><br \/><strong>BOHACHUK:<\/strong><br \/>On his nickname: &#8220;When I started professional boxing, I started at 147 pounds. I have always been very skinny so I called myself &#8216;Flaco.&#8217; I am a good boxer so it doesn&#8217;t matter if I am skinny.&#8221;<br \/>\u00a0<br \/>On getting COVID-19:\u00a0&#8220;I am feeling very good. I am feeling fresh. I got Coronavirus before the last fight. At the beginning I was really, really upset. But then I gathered my thoughts together and rested. It&#8217;s all for the best so now I am ready. I rested a couple of weeks and now I am feeling fresh and hungry. I want to work, work, work and win this fight.<br \/>\u00a0<br \/>On Brandon&#8217;s last opponent:\u00a0&#8220;(Sonny) Duversonne was not a hard opponent. Brandon does not have hard opponents. I knew it would only go a few rounds.&#8221;<br \/>\u00a0<br \/>On extending his knockout streak:\u00a0&#8220;I don&#8217;t look for knockouts. I am boxing. I do my job. I will do 10 rounds, 12 rounds, knockout. It&#8217;s OK. Brandon Adams is a good boxer. I watched his fights. This is not an easy fight for me.&#8221;<br \/>\u00a0<br \/>On being from the Ukraine:\u00a0&#8220;Ukraine has a lot of good professionals &#8211; Lomachenko, Usyk. I have a different style of boxing, but I have the same mentality.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"The Story of Brandon Adams with Curran Bhatia\" width=\"1170\" height=\"658\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/bcQiocPF99A?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The Story of Brandon Adams with Curran Bhatia.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Watch live\u00a0TONIGHT from Guaynabo, Puerto Rico at 9 p.m. EST\/6 p.m. PST on NBCSN Photos from\u00a0Tom Hogan &#8211; Hogan Photos\/Ring City USA [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":12000,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[195],"class_list":["post-11999","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-brandon-adams"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/banner-promotions.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11999","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/banner-promotions.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/banner-promotions.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/banner-promotions.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/banner-promotions.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=11999"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/banner-promotions.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11999\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12001,"href":"https:\/\/banner-promotions.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11999\/revisions\/12001"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/banner-promotions.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/12000"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/banner-promotions.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=11999"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/banner-promotions.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=11999"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/banner-promotions.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=11999"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
