“Saturday night will be Luis' ninth fight in twelve months," said Gonzalez. "Our pedal to the metal philosophy continues. We try to get him in the ring once a month to get him as much professional experience as possible. Every fight he has we try to make it a little tougher. Soon we hope to have Luis fight back home to Puerto Rico where ideally he would fight for a regional belt before his home crowd."
