Jason Quigley has told Edgar Berlanga that he plans to make New York his city on Saturday night.

Quigley returns to the ring with a headline bout at the iconic Madison Square Garden against the unbeaten Berlanga.

The NABO super-middleweight title, currently held by Berlanga, is up for grabs.

The pair faced off for the first time on Tuesday in Brooklyn, Berlanga's home turf.

“This is my city,” Berlanga told Quigley in a tasty face-off that set the tone for Saturday's showdown. “You're in the trenches.”

Quigley believes he has another shot at the big time again and, with Matchroom chief Eddie Hearn close by, the Ballybofey man shot back.

“Yeah whatever,” Quigley smiled. "Whatever, lad. I'll make this my city Saturday night.”

Berlanga is fighting for the first time under the Matchroom banner, but Quigley sees this as a step back to the big time.

He said: “I know what this fight can do for my career and where it can put me. I am not focussing on that now. I am focussed on myself, we have had a great camp and we are really looking forward to putting the game plan into action.

“There are a lot of tasty fights at super-middleweight for me. That is all dependent on fight night and I am not looking past Berlanga. This is a world title fight for me because I know what this one can do for me.”
