“It’s important to stick to the plan and listen to my corner,” said the 20-year-old, who hails from Salinas, カリフ. “He was somewhat reckless so I needed to show a little more patience with him.

While Villa comes from a well-rounded amateur career that saw him bank two wins against fellow high ceiling prospect Shakur Stevenson, the Northern California native is always on the quest to better his skills.
“I’ve been working on using more angles to set up punches,” ヴィラは言った. “The goal is to develop better range with my jab so I can be more effective. With Ruiz, I plan to feel him out for the first round and then I’ll start going at his weaknesses. A lot of what I plan to do will come off the jab.”
