Selina Barrios zavara svoju protivnicu, Zarina Tsoloyeva vraća se iz borbe

Ostavite komentar


RAYNE, LA (Studeni 2, 2017) – Dva dana nakon Noći vještica, neporažena ženska senzacija, lak Selina “Aztec kraljica” Četvrti (2-0, 1 KO), je uplašio svog protivnika, Zarina Tsoloyeva (Pro Debi) iz Zhaksyja, Kazahstan, kad se povukla iz zakazanog dvoboja od 4 runde, trebao se održati danas u The Rayne Civic Center u Louisiani. Tsoloyeva je jučer odbila stati na vagu.
Selina Barrios jedna je od žena koje se najviše izbjegavaju u Sjedinjenim Državama, a sada i u Kazahstanu. Ebony Jones iz Alabame, Alfa Patricia Lopez iz Meksika, i sad Zarina Tsoloyeva iz Kazahstana, svi su potpisali da se bore protiv Seline, ali su se u zadnji trenutak povukli da se bore protiv nje. Jones i Lopez nisu bili prisutni, dok je Tsoloyeva koja je iz daleke zemlje Kazahstan, pojavio se na vaganju, ali odbio je stati na ljestvicu.
“Bio sam spreman boriti se protiv Zarine Tsoloyeve, odlikovani amater iz Kazahstana, ali izvukla se u zadnji čas, poput moja posljednja dva protivnika.” rekla je Selina Barrios iz San Antonija. “Bilo je vrlo teško natjerati protivnike da se bore sa mnom. I’ve always said, Nije me briga koga stavljaju ispred mene, Borit ću se protiv bilo koga. Imam toliko povjerenja u svoje vještine. Nemam izbora nego krenuti dalje, ali s poštovanjem šaljem poruku svima u lakoj i superlakoj kategoriji, Neću nigdje, na kraju ćete se svi morati boriti sa mnom.”
Selina ništa neće skrenuti s puta jer ostaje pozitivna i nastavlja vrijedno raditi, tražeći tu priliku da izazove najbolje što lagane i superlake divizije nude. Voditelji Seline sada je moraju odmah premjestiti na šest i osam rundi, otjerati i doći do prvenstvene borbe jer ona kao profesionalka stječe više ring iskustva.
“Gledajući sve vrhunske lagane i superlake, Predviđam da će se Selina boriti za svjetsko prvenstvo prije svoje desete borbe,” rekla je savjetnica Kerry Daigle. “Moguće borbom broj sedam ili osam. Premjestit ćemo je u šest i osam krugova koji idu naprijed. Već sam u pregovorima sa sankcionim tijelima kako bi je rangirali.”
“Ako se nitko ne želi boriti sa mnom, tada dozivam sve borce imena u diviziji,” Nastavila je Selina Barrios. “Amanda Serrano, Mikaela Mayer, Jessica McCaskill i naravno, Katie Taylor, Spreman sam se boriti s vama u bilo kojem trenutku, negdje. Kao sto sam rekao, u nekom trenutku, svi ćete se morati boriti sa mnom.”
