“I just hope everyone comes out and supports as I am looking to put on a show and start the next phase of my career.”

On the veteran opponent, Родрігес, Upsher said, “I know he is tough and from Mexico. I will look at a little film before the fight and go from there. I really don’t worry about what he will do.
