krikya360.com:  How was training camp for this fight against Moura?

Donte Strayhorn: My last fight in August at BB Kings I broke my left wrist during the fight.  I was out for a while but started running after 3 months.  I started sparring on December 1st and I was getting great work.  I was sparring the Magdaleno brothers.

This camp, we always train hard, was a tough training camp.  I was fine physically.  By the end of camp I didn't feel pain in my wrist so I was starting to build confidence.  I started to become as slick and picking up where I left off before the injury.

krikya360.com:  What is it like being signed to 50 Cent's SMS Promotions?

Donte Strayhorn:  It is a dream come true.  I never thought I would be in this position.  When he 1st started he was only signing champions.  I was the 1st amateur he signed so it was cool.

krikya360.com:  Where do you train and who do you train with?

Donte Strayhorn:  I live in Las Vegas and I train at 50 World Fitness.  I train with Gerald Tucker Sr and I have been with him almost a year.

krikya360.com:  I saw you venting on Facebook about fans taking verbal shots at him after his loss.  Was there a reason behind you getting behind him specifically?

Donte Strayhorn:  I am from Cincinnati.  I grew up with Adrien Broner that is family.  I can't say anything bad about him.  He showed a ton of heart.  The heart of a lion.  Cincinnati breeds talented fighters & fighters with a ton of heart.

krikya360.com:  For fans not familiar with you, what can expect every time you step in the ring?

Donte Strayhorn:  They can always expect a great performance.  I give boxing clinics.  I am going to give fans what they want to see each and every time.

krikya360.com:  Final Question.  What do you have planned for 2014?

Donte Strayhorn:  I plan to have a big year.  I plan on getting more fights and hopefully TV fights.
