“Raha mahazo lasa Escandon ho tia aho mba hiady Leo Santa Cruz, we fought in the amateurs. But we never underestimate any opponent and we are focused on getting this fight out of the way first.

“Manana enina mirahalahy, izy rehetra dia mpiady. Izy rehetra, samy hafa toetra toy ny olona izay mandika hafa ho iza izy ireo toy ny olona sy ny peratra.
“Antonio Russell no 4-0, izy ny tena niasa mafy ny fiainany rehetra. Ivelan'ny fanaovana fanatanjahan-tena, dia afaka manamboatra na inona na inona. Antoine, izay vao mendrika ho an'ny Olaimpika fitsapana, dia marani-tsaina.

Avy eo aminareo Gary, izay miasa mafy, Izy no ho avy patriarika ny fianakaviana. Manana-panahy efa ela.

I saw his punches easily coming in. I know I threw more punches. I was a little surprised that he did not come out for the (10faha-) but he was cut, had been getting beat up and had just got knocked down, so he knew what would happen if he came out.

 

Chavez said before the fight that he didn’t think I could take his body punches. I think I took them pretty good and passed that test.

 

I know there are things I can still work on in training to become a more complete boxer, faanio alina was a dream come true. I want a rematch with (Light Heavyweight World Champion) Adonis Stevenson.

For me this is a life-changing victory and, Eny, I thought it was very, very close but I absolutely feel I won.

 

I want to fight the best next, the top guys at 122 pounds and right now the top guy is Santa Cruz Leo. That’s who I’d like to fight next. I really want to thank all my team, hatrany ambony ka hatrany ambany, for giving me this wonderful opportunity. We’re very happy that we joined the Al Haymon team. We’re very loyal and we just really appreciate everything they’ve done for us.

 

Escandon felt he’d done enough to win despite injuring the right index finger on his right hand in the seventh round.

I did all that I could, everything was in my reach, but I think I broke or fractured my finger,” hoy izy:. “In boxing things happen that are out of your control. Because I hurt my hand, I couldn’t throw punches the way I wanted to with my right hand. I tried to do all I could with it. But I didn’t want to injure it further. I’m OK, but I definitely would love a rematch.
