On his recent training camp: “I had a very productive training camp this time around. Everything we worked on showed up in sparring and I dominated a few sessions. All the nutrition was perfect, and my weight is on point. I’m going into this fight feeling really strong.”

 

On his matchup with Villarraga: “I just know he’s a durable guy with over twenty fights and he’s only been stopped once. My goal is to come out and execute the game plan we’ve put together and come out victorious by all means necessary. If I hurt him at any point, I will go for the knockout.”

A lot of people will get to know my name and my fighting style after this fight. I bring a lot of action to the ring and I can’t wait to perform for the fans.”
