"I feel good," Flores said during a break from training camp. "I'm focused and ready to step back in the ring. I'm over my last fight. The past is the past, I can't go back in time. I'm more than ready and excited to step back in the ring November 7th. "My main focus is to win and get momentum going again. I always work hard for every fight.
