Ishe is a vet and he showed it each and every round. Each round that I thought I could stop him, he came back. I just had to put the pressure on him a little more. În întregime, I rate my performance a B+, my guard, my defense and offense was on point, my legs were on point.

I just want to continue bringing the fans exciting shows.”

He is a boxer that can cause a problem to any fighter. In the ring it was much more difficult than what I had imagined and Krael made me box more. I feel that I didn’t give it the 100 percent that I am capable of, and this fight taught me a lot. I haven’t fought in the U.S. since June and that’s almost a year, so this was a test that I learned a lot from, I’m happy judges saw this fight in my favor.
“I don’t agree with the judges’ decisions at all,” says Krael. “I was caught earlier in the rounds, dar cred că am făcut suficient pentru a câștiga lupta. I should’ve won by split decision. My downfall was allowing myself to be open when I was trying to figure him out, and that’s when he caught me with those combinations. Sunt dezamăgit, because I really thought I was the better guy at the end. My plan is to get back in the gym and keep my stamina up and work on boxing these guys out.”
