Las Vegas is where I call home now and I’ve just wrapped up my few days of training. I’m in tremendous shape and I’m feeling stronger than ever. This will be my third fight at welterweight so my body has filled in perfectly with the weight hike. A big reason for this is my manager Bob Santos, who has been doing my diet since I was a 16 year old amateur. Bob works extremely hard to make sure I’m eating all the right foods and he really gets it — he knows what my body needs to be at peak performance, so you can expect to see a well-oiled machine on fight night. Santos is a tremendous leader and mentor.
Training is going as planned. We found a gym that is low key so we can get all our training done with no distractions. My dad Ruben is my trainer and has been guiding my corner since I first started boxing. He’s pushed me to be the best and the respect we have for one another is what’s kept us strong over the years. He knows me better than anyone and together we are unstoppable. My dad, Santos and I have come up with a few masterful game plans that will be implemented in this fight. I have to give a shout out to my little brother Eric who is helping me with my exercises. We are a small team but we work extremely hard.
