I’m just ready to fight and I hope he is too. I encourage people to come to this action packed, stacked event. 12 bouts featuring some of the hottest prospects and a title fight,” zei LaManna.

Not only did I make the weight, but I went the distance with a formidable opponent. Not this timeI went directly to Cuba to begin training.
