Spence Jr. and Bundu spoke to media at Via Della Pace in downtown Manhattan before they visited Coney Island for photo-ops ahead of their Sunday bout in the Brooklyn venue. 

LOU DIBELLA, President of DiBella Entertainment - "Everyone should come out to Coney Island on Sunday afternoon to see what's going to be an incredible day and early evening of boxing. The fights start at 2:30 p.m. in the afternoon and is fully covered, so there will be no weather issue. It's a beautiful new facility with an incredible view.

"This is the first boxing broadcast that will be nationally televised from Coney Island. In my mind we have one of the best young fighters in the world defending his standing against a guy who has had a long and successful career. Both Spence Jr. and Bundu were Olympians and it will be a real test for Errol.

"There's no question Errol is the favorite while Bundu is the underdog, but he's been the underdog before. He knows he has to win and that this could be his last chance on a big stage.

"I've promoted a lot of fighters throughout the years and there wasn't a better fighter from the last Olympic class or this one that is better than Errol Spence Jr. In terms of ability, talent and instincts he's world class. He fights with much more intelligence than his ring age. He's a master of controlling the ring. When I watch this kid fight I'm always blown away.

"On Sunday Spence Jr. is fighting a real professional and he has a chance to prove something on national television. This is a great forum for him to follow the Olympic Gold medal basketball game. The kind of audience that is going to watch the Gold medal game are the kind of people that we need to bring into boxing. I'm proud to promote this show."
