Edgar Berlanga vs. Jason Quigley: Irishman explains why Demetrius Andrade defeat will help him

The pair fought for the experienced American’s WBO middleweight strap, but it was Quigley who lost the match-up.

However, he believes he has used the lessons from that defeat, plus the two years since, as building blocks to become a better fighter.

"A victory puts you right in contention for those world title fights, world title eliminators," said Quigley.

"But none of that matters unless you win on Saturday night so my only goal, my only focus right now is to perform the best I can."

He continued: "This is a massive fight, whenever you step out of the whole fight week and everything, it's an iconic venue, a headline event, but at the end of the day it's another fight.

"I'm getting into that ring, the same ring I've been in many times before. In the end you go in there and make sure you take care of business and come out victorious.

"We look at Edgar Berlanga and see what he does well and what he does not so well but we have a gameplan, we just need to make sure it all falls into place.

"If I perform the way I can, I know I'll come out of the ring having had my hand raised.

"I had a bit of a lay-off but I have a great team and family around me so it was only a matter of time before I got back into the gym after the Andrade fight to shake off the cobwebs and get back at it again.

"It's difficult for a fighter to be inactive because it's all that we know.

"I've come back a much more experienced fighter from that Andrade fight. I was in with one of the best fighters in the world going for a world title.

"I've come back a more rounded person and a more mature fighter."
