“This training camp has been intense. My team and I have been working hard on everything from conditioning to sharpening my skills in the ring. We’ve focused on getting stronger and faster, making sure I’m ready to go the full 8 rounds if needed. I feel like I’m in the best shape of my career.”

On his matchup with Alfonso Olvera:

“Olvera is a tough, experienced fighter. He’s been in the ring with a lot of solid opponents, so I know he’ll be durable and come to fight. But I’ve been preparing for every style, and I’m confident I can outbox him and impose my will. I’ll be ready for whatever he brings.”

On fighting in the main event in his hometown of Southern California:

“It’s always a blessing to fight in the main event here in Southern California. I grew up in L.A., so having all my friends, family, and supporters in the crowd is going to give me that extra motivation. I’m looking forward to putting on a great show for them.”

On what a win will do for his career:

“A win here will definitely take my career to the next level. I’ve been working hard to get to this point, and beating Olvera in the main event will show everyone that I’m ready for bigger fights. This victory will put me on the map and open the door to big fights in the future.”
