ANGEL GARCIA, Garcia's Father and Trainer
"March 15 is going to be like no other. Herrera has never fought a Puerto Rican and my son Danny is 100 percent Puerto Rican.
"My wife and I are both Puerto Rican, and like it or not, Danny is Boricua. It's always been a dream of his to fight in Puerto Rico, so we're happy to see that coming to pass."
DANNY "SWIFT" GARCIA, Unified Super Lightweight World Champion
"I am a Puerto Rican. I could have been born on the moon, but I'm still Puerto Rican.
[On fighting in Puerto Rico] "It means a lot to me. Everybody in the stands is going to be Puerto Rican. I've never had that before.
"Even though I'm from Philly, that's not my heritage. It's important for me to reach out to my fans because I think Puerto Rican boxing needs this right now.
"I think that Puerto Rico is going to accept me as its own after I win on March 15. Philadelphia might be my birthplace, but Puerto Rico is my blood. "
GILLERMO SILVA, Herrera's Trainer
"I'm very thankful for this opportunity. It's going to be a good and hard fight, but Mauricio will be prepared. The preparation and work he has put in will show on fight night. "
MAURICIO HERRERA, Super Lightweight Contender
"I know this is a huge opportunity, and I'm going to take full advantage of it.
"To have a shot at Danny's belts has been a dream of mine for a long time.
"Danny Garcia is an intelligent and tough fighter, but so am I.
"I'm coming to Puerto Rico and I know there is a lot of pressure, but hopefully they will support me too."
