I wasn't going to let anything get in the way of me winning this fight. My promoter Gary Shaw, whom I'm very thankful to, told me that there are some big fights lined up for me in 2015. I'm very excited about my future and I want to thank Gary Shaw and HBO for this opportunity. This win was for me people back in Puerto Rico."

Evenly matched fights is what makes boxing great and I want to thank HBO for giving the fans a great match."  |
