"Gary said that he is too great and too strong to be beaten by me. This drives me crazy… I will show to the World that he is wrong!" said Patrick

"I want to make a bet with him. If he wins, I invite him for one week holiday in Switzerland, if he loses, I will be his guest in Northern Ireland and I can assure you that it will cost him a lot of money! Start to save money Gary because you will lose your belt this weekend!"

Philippe Brelaz, chief instructor of Yamabushi martial arts schools’ competition team said "I am convinced that Patrick Kinigamazi will beat Gary on Saturday. Patrick is stronger than ever. He is improved a lot since 2005 when he fought Gary in Kilkenny.

"He is not the same fighter anymore. Gary has a better kicking technique but Patrick has become a good kicker too. I do not think that Gary will be able to hear the sound 12th round’s bell."

Patrick's manager and co-promoter Mr Carl Emery will respond online at ProKick.com tomorrow
