Fort Washington, Maryland (Oktober, 28, 2016)–Undefeated junior welterweight prospect Mykal “De Professor” Vos is ready for his next challenge against veteran Juan Rodriguez in an eight-round bout that will headline eight-bout on Zaterdag, 5 november bij de Rosecroft Raceway in Fort Washington, Maryland.
De kaart wordt bevorderd door Promotions King's.
Fox van Forestville, Maryland heeft een record van 11-0 with three knockouts and this will be his fourth bout of 2016.
De 20 year-old Fox turned professional in 2014 and has been kept busy as this will be his 12th contest in 29 maanden.
In zijn laatste gevecht, Fox stopped Somner Martin in three rounds on August 19th in Washington, DC.
Fox has been working hard in camp with his father/trainer Troy.
“Camp is winding down, and it has been real good. Coming off my last win, I got right back in camp. I took a week off and I all that I had to do was get in fight shape,” zei Fox.
When trying to scout Rodriguez, Fox was not able to get much information, but he will be ready for what the veteran has to offer.
“I could not find anything on him. I just have to go in there and be the best of me.”
Op slechts 21 jaar oud (Turned 21 vandaag) Fox continues to mature physically, and the improvement is evident in his performances.
“As long as I learn something from every fight, I am happy. My power is coming around and I would not consider myself a knockout puncher, but it’s getting better. People forget, I turned pro at age 18, and now I think my power has become respectable.”
This being his 12th fight and most likely last of 2016, Fox sees 2017 as a moving year in his career.
“In 2017 I am looking for big things. I just want to keep winning and get some television time, but I know for that to happen, I must get past Rodriguez on November 5th. Just remember that main event Myke is coming to a boxing ring near you.”
Rodriguez of Haymarket, Virginia heeft een record van 6-5-1 with five wins coming via stoppage.
De 26 year-old Rodriguez is an eight year professional and he won his first four fights. He has a fifth round stoppage win over previously undefeated Nathaniel Rivas (5-0).
