“I want to thank David Feldman Promotions, Promotions roi. Nelsons Promotions, and Raynelo Management are giving me an opportunity of a lifetime to show my skills in the ring,” said Aguero. “I come from nothing in the Dominican Republic, and I managed to get out alive and now I have to take advantage of opportunities like this. I’m on the card with Ring Legend Roy Jones Jr. in my first debut in the US, C'est un rêve qui devient réalité. “

He has rebounded nicely with wins over Daniel Perales, Jonathan Perez, and an explosive 2nd round stoppage over Kiun Evans on September 9, 2016 à Reading, Pennsylvanie.
“My training has been good. I have been waiting to get back in there after 5 mois,”a déclaré De Alba.
“I know Meraz is a Mexican, and I expect him to come forward, and it will be a great war.”
De Alba is very excited about the opportunity to fight on a high profile card that will be headlined by Roy Jones, Jr.
“I am very much looking forward to fight on this card that will be headlined by Roy Jones, Jr. He is a legend, and to share the same ring as him is a great honor.”
The Douglas fight was a good experience for De Alba, and his performance in his subsequent bouts has shown that he has learned and raised his game from that contest.
“After the Douglas loss, that fight made me aware of my talent. I could have won that fight. I learned that I have the talent and now the experience that will pave the way in my career. But first things first. I am just ready to get back in the ring vendredi and perform in Wilmington, and hopefully make some new fans for Team De Alba.”
