This unanimous decision win was very satisfying for me," said Honorio. "I feel like we delivered a great fight to the people today. I proved that I am a resilient and tough fighter. I feel like a draw would have been fair and that the unanimous decision was to far from what my corner and I saw. As the people saw, I'm not injured and my body feels fine.
