But I am proud. He was an awkward fighter. I accepted the fight on short notice. He is a weight class above me. I am a 135 lbs. All hard work is rewarded by him. I went through a lot in the ring tonight, as any fighter does. I hurt my hand. I got a head butt that almost closed my eye. But I got over it all. I have what it takes. I can hang in there with the best. Give me a couple more fights and I’ll be ready for anyone.”

I understand that. He’s not a power puncher, so he had to throw punches to stand a chance. I’m glad we got the win.”
