"I was surprised to be a three-round underdog, but I'm happy for my fans who will put a lot of money on me. I'm going to dominate this fight, which means I'm ready to work all 25 minutes without a break, I'm not going to let him fight, I'm going to take the fight to the stand-up and show all my skills. And I expect to win early - I don't want a close fight because he's the champion and the judges can give him the win. I will show a great performance and prove to everyone that I am on another level," Tsarukyan said at the press conference.
