WORCESTER, Masse. (November 29, 2021) – The rematch of the unofficial 2021 New England Fight of the Year will headline the December 18th “New England Future VIII” event, præsenteret af Rivera Promotions Underholdning (RPE), highlighting Webster’s (MA) first professional boxing event in 27 år, at Webster Town Hall.

Puerto Rico-native Wilfredo “El Sucaro” Pagan (6-1-1, 3 KOS), fighting out of Southbridge (MA), and Bridgeport’s (CT) Carlos Marrero, III (2-6-2), fought to an entertaining 6-round split draw this past August 14th i Worcester (MA).

“I am very excited we were able to get the rematch between Pagan and Marrero so quick,” RPE promoter Jose Antonio Rivera commented. “These two warriors put their heart and soul in their last fight and the fans were not disappointed. As a promoter these are the type of fights we love to put together. We are 3 weeks away from another great boxing event to see some talented up and coming future champions. Webster Town Hall is going to be electric!"

Pagan and Marrero will be fighting once again for the vacant New England Super Lightweight Championship in the Dec.18th 6-round main event.

The original Pagan-Marrero was non-stop, action-packed throw-down which the judges’ scored 58-56 in favor or Pagan, 55-59 for Marrero, og 57-57. The scoring was originally announced as a split-decision win for Marrero but, in retrospect, both fighters have taken the emotional outcome changes in stride. Some fuel, selv, has been poured on the fire, largely through social media.

“When the fight was done,” Pagan commented, “as a fighter, you know if your fight was won, lost or very close. It was a little close, but that I won the fight. When the decision was announced that he had won, I closed my eyes, because it reminded me of my amateur career. I definitely won a few fights, I dominated, but I didn’t get the decision. Anything can happen when it goes into the judges’ hands. The judges didn’t see me winning, orden, but then they reversed the decision. I thought that they had gotten it right and I had won, but it was announced as a draw. Det er hvad det er, orden, because the judges’ job isn’t as easy as people think. They saw ups and downs and had it a draw.

“II was thinking, here we go again, when it was announced a draw,"Marrero sagde. “For some reason, every time I fight in Massachusetts it’s always controversial. I had dropped to my knees in happiness and when the second announcement was made, I thought they were giving him the win. A draw? I’m not upset but I was surprised because I felt I had won. I went home thinking it was a draw, not a loss, and hopefully we’d have a rematch. And we do December 18th."

Pagan vs. Marrero is an example of not needing two great fighters to have a great fight. They’re evenly matched and both fighters have tremendous heart.

“People had asked if I wanted a rematch and I said, ja, I’m thinking about it because it was a draw,” Pagan offered. “I wasn’t going to say no if it was offered, but the No. 1 reason for me to fight him is for the New England Championship. As long as I fought him for the title, I was for it because I want to fight for the belt and that’s what is my target. That was my feeling at the beginning, but things changed a little, because he changed. I don’t know what people told him, I’m not some kid and I had a lot of respect for him. But then he started texting me. I don’t know if it was to spice up this fight, but he crossed the line. He said a lot he shouldn’t have said. I’ always humble and respect all fighters because they’re risking their lives. I don’t know why he said what he did, but he’s given me even more motivation. I want that belt! I’m training double to beat him and shut his month. I still have some respect for him, but it’s not the same.

“I made a lot of mistakes in our first fight and made the fight much harder than it was supposed to be. I’ve been working on adjustment and, forhåbentlig, på December 18th it will pay-off.”

“I always have a little room for improvement after a fight, and we saw some things I needed to improve for the rematch,” Marrero explained. “I’m more mentally prepared to do things and will be much smarter in the ring. Fysisk, I’m a lot stronger and sharper. The key for me is being mentally prepared and sharper. His (Pagan’s) opponent for his last fight fell out and my manager, Nate Torres, contacted me saying I had been offered an opportunity to fight Pagan. Without hesitation, Jeg sagde ja. I’m always in the gym and ready to fight. I came in 2-pounds under and I’m on weight right now for this fight. The only thing I had to prepare for is he’s a southpaw.

“We had a great fight. He probably thinks he won a few rounds, I felt I won the fight. He missed more and I connected with the cleaner punches the judges could see. In the third or fourth round, I hurt him with a body shot. He folded and I hit him with another good shot.”

I co-featured begivenhed, Danbury (CT) super lightweight Omar “The Beast” Bordoy (11-1, 3 KOS) faces an opponent to be determined in the 6-round match.

Promising Boca Raton (FL) super welterweight prospect Josniel “TG” Castro (7-0, 5 KOS) is steps up in terms of quality opposition in a 6-rounder versus Lenwood “Mr. Composure” Dozier (10-28-3, 5 KOS).

Worcester super middleweight Bobby “BH3” Harris, III (3-0-1), a two-time national amateur champion and World Games Silver medalist, will meet David Rohn (0-10-1) in a 4-round super middleweight bout.

Undefeated Worcester cruiserweight prospect Derek “Hightower” Edmonds (3-0, 2 KOS), a 3-time N.E. Golden Gloves mester, has been added to the card in a 4-round bout against TBA.

Jose Antonio Rivera DedicatesQuest For 50to Worcester Boys & piger klub


(L-R) – Jose Antonio Rivera, current WBC Youth super lightweight champion Jermaine Ortiz
(11-0, 6 KOS) and Carlos Garcia


WORCESTER, MASS (Maj 16, 2019) – Tre-tid, to-division verdensmester “Gallo” Jose Antonio Rivera is dedicating his 50th pro kamp, the last in his hometown of Worcester, to the Boys & Girls Club in Worcester, Massachusetts. A portion of the proceeds fromQuest For 50,presented by Shearns Boxing Promotions (SBP) and Rivera Promotions Entertainment, will benefit the Boys & piger klub.

The 46-year-old Rivera (42-6-1, 25 KOS) faces former WFC champion Travis “Sweet Feet” Scott (19-5, 5 KOS), of Baton Rouge, Louisiana, in the eight-round main event at The Palladium in Worcester.

Rivera, a full-time court officer in Worcester, has had a special relationship for more than 30 years with the Worcester Boys & Girls Club and its director of boxing, Carlos Garcia, der er “The Godfather of Worcester Boxing.

Rivera moved to Worcester from Springfield 30 years ago at the age of 16 to pursue a boxing career, which included being coached by Garcia. Rivera had siblings and other relatives living in Worcester and after living with an aunt for a month, Jose moved into an apartment with another boxer, four-time national amateur champion Bobby Harris.

The Worcester Boys & Girls Club helped me stay off the streets so I could focus on my dream of becoming world champion,” Rivera remembered. “It was a place for me and so many others to go and be safe. Kids, not just boxers, can be kids there, where they don’t have to worry about what’s happening in the streets.

Carlos has played a tremendous part of my life and so many others, influencing us not only to become good boxers, but to be good people in the community. That was always so important to him and he emphasized being a good person. Jeg gjorde mit bedste. He was always fair across the board and gave us all opportunities. He took a liking to me and brags that he never had to throw me out of the Boys & piger klub. I graduated from high school and went after my dream in 1992 when I turned pro. Carlos is big in amateur boxing, but not so much with pros, because he doesn’t have the time to train pros. I made sure that when turned pro, tough, that he was part of my team. And he’s still a big part of my team and life.

The number of Worcester youths Garcia has had a positive effect on, life-changing in many respects, is countless. One of those many people is Jose’s longtime friend and his current head trainer, Sean Fitzgerald, who retired as a boxer in 2001 med en 29-2-2 pro record. “Fitzyremembers the fir time he read the sign over the door in the gym at the Boys & piger klub: “Better to seat than bleed.

Fitzy lived with his father when his parents divorced and at the age of 10, his father sent him to the Boys & Girls Club to attend an after-school program. “Fitzysaid he had to earn his way into Garcia’s good graces.

Carlos didn’t talk to me for the first 5-6 uger,” Fitzgerald explained. “Derefter, he put me in the ring as a sparring partner, and I was badly beaten. I had a bloody nose and black eye, but the next day I came back, and the rest is history. Carlos was a great mentor, rough at times, but always there for you. I remember seeing the boxing team jackets. It intrigued me. When I got my jacket and started wearing it, I got respect from everybody, and then I knew that I belonged. I learned a lot about life at the Boys & piger klub, being with there with people from different generations and cultures. I met many friends there who I never would have met.

The Boys & Girls Club is safe. I was from a tough area in Worcester. My father worked and it was easy to get in trouble with no supervision. Carlos stayed on top of me to graduate from school and if I was home sick, he come buy with chicken soup to make sure I was alright. My father was in my life big-time, but I joke that I had two moms growing up, my father and Carlos. Going to the Boys & Girls Club was something to look forward to every day.

Carlos always taught us to never make the mistakes he did in life. He wanted us to go to school, stay out of trouble, and be a good person. He’s helped so many people over the years. Look around Worcester and you’ll see them: police and court officers, fire fighters, and so many others. The Boys & Girls Club was a great experience for me and so many other kids from Worcester.


(L-R) – Ray Semidei, Carlos Garcia and Jose Antonio Rivera

Garcia has been the director of boxing at the Worcester Boys & Girls Club since 1982. Two year ago, Garcia was inductred into the National Golden Gloves Hall of Fame.

Never in his life has Jose even raised his voice to me,” Garcia commented. “He treats me like his father and he’s like one of my sons. There aren’t not too many guys like him and he’s so well respected in the community. He came to Worcester from Springfield to train with ne and stayed with me. Jose helps everyone and now he’s promoting to help local boxers.

We’re at the Boys & Girls Club to and that’s the way it really is here. It’s so good to see so many in this community who’ve gone through our boxing program and are good people, good husbands, good parents. It makes me feel so proud. ‘Fitzywas a hyper kid. He’s a real gentleman who now does so much for kids here. I’ve never had a signed contract with any of the pro boxers I’ve worked with because I trust them.

Richard “Skipper Skræk Man” Rivera Finishes off Kevin Cobbs in 3 with super uppercut

NEW ENGLAND’S FUTURE 5

WORCESTER, Masse. (Februar 11, 2018) – Undefeated prospect Richard “Skipper Skræk Man” Rivera afsluttede Kevin “The New England Bully” Cobbs i tredje runde, punctuating the night with an lethal uppercut that landed right on the button, headlining last night’s “New Englands fremtid 5” kort, præsenteret af Rivera Promotions Underholdning, på The Palladium i Worcester, Massachusetts.

The 27-year-old Rivera (6-0, 5 KOS) fought once again in front of his large, traveling fanbase from Hartford, CT, capturing the vacant Universal Boxing Federation (UBF) light heavyweight title in dramatic fashion. The charismatic Hartford boxer ended his third consecutive match with what has become his trademark right-uppercut.

Rivera used his strength, energy and determined will to defeat South Boston’s Cobbs (10-3, 4 KOS), whose previous fight had been more than a year ago, when he was stopped in the second round by now world champion David Benavidez.

In only his sixth pro fight, the key question going into the bout was whether Rivera was ready to effectively step up in class to face a more experienced Cobbs. Right from the opening bell, the answer was a resounding, ja, as Rivera pounded Cobbs with powerful shots to the body and head.

Cobbs was dropped three times in the third round, one was ruled a push, and the end came when referee Jackie Morrell halted the action at the 2:51 as a reeling Cobbs was blasted backwards from the Rivera’s previously mentioned uppercut.

The beginning of the end for Cobbs (L) as Rivera sets up his vaunted uppercut

I stepped things up in the third,” Rivera forklarede. “He stopped throwing as many punches in the third and was ducking in. I said I wasn’t going to look for the knockout but, if it came, I’d take it. I got him with my uppercut. I respect Cobbs and thank him for giving me this opportunity.
I co-featured begivenhed, hjemby favorit Bobby “BH3” Harris, III (2-0-1), the two-time national amateur champion, and Brazilian super middleweight Saul Almeida (0-8-2) fought to a four-round majority draw.
Super middleweight Troy “Omar KO Kunstner” kunstner (5-7-1, 3 KOS), af Danbury, CT, upset intrastate rival Jose “Rated R” Rivera (4-2, 3 KOS), of Hartford, winning a six-round majority decision.
Danbury, CT junior welterweight Omar Borðoy, Jr. (4-0-, 1 KO) used a blistering body attack to defeat Seth Basler (0-5) by way of a lop-sided four-round unanimous decision.

Junior welterweight prospect Wilfredo “den Sucaro” Pagan (4-0, 2 KOS) floored veteran Bryan “The Brick” Abraham (6-29-2, 6 KOS) with a sweet right-left combination at the end of the opening round. I anden runde, Pagan, of Southbridge, MA., drilled Abraham who went flying across the ring and into the ropes as referee Jackie Morrell halted the bout.

Springfield, MA junior middleweight Derrick “Bad Boy” Whitley (3-0) cruised to a dominating four-round unanimous decision over Cleveland’s Roger Blankenship (1-3), pitching a complete shutout in the process.

Bridgeport, CT welterweight Joe Goss (1-0) turned in an impressive pro debut, dropping Montreal’s Samuel Vasquez (1-3, 1 KO) in the second round on his way to a four-round unanimous decision.

Puerto Rican junior lightweight Luis “Lobito” Rivera (4-3, 1 KOS) overcame a nasty cut over his eye to win a hard-fought four-round majority decision over Carlos Marrero, III (0-2), af Bridgeport, CT, in a non-stop action fight to the finish.

Unbeaten Springfield, MA light heavyweight Ray “Bazooka” Graceski (5-0-1, 3 KOS) and International Muay Thai fighter, Harford’s pro boxing debuting Pawel Banasiak (0-1-0), fought to a four-round draw in an entertaining brawl.

Kevin “The New England Bully” Cobbs Aldrig forlod boksning, holdt træning i gymnastiksalen

bekæmper Richard “Skipper Skræk Man” Rivera i
“New Englands fremtid 5” main event
“New Englands fremtid 5”
Februar. 10 i Worcester, MA
WORCESTER, Masse. (Januar 31, 2018) — Let sværvægter Kevin “The New England Bully” Cobbs (10-2, 4 KOS”, repræsenterer George Foreman III’S Everybody Fights træningscenter i South Boston (MA), vil være tilbage i ringen efter en relativt lang pause, Februar 10th mod undefeated Hartford (CT) Udsigten Richard “Skipper Skræk Man” Rivera (5-0, 4 KOS), på The Palladium i Worcester.
Rivera vs. Cobbs vil kæmpe om den ledige Universal Boxing Federation (UBF) New England lys sværvægter titel

i otte-runde “New Englands fremtid 5” main event. “Ny England';s Future 5″, præsenteret af Rivera Promotions Underholdning (RPE)”, er den femte rate af den populære “New Englands Future-serie.”
“Vi er meget glade for at være i stand til at have sat sammen en kamp af denne kaliber,” promotorJose Antonio Rivera kommenterede. “Disse er den slags kamp, ​​boksning fans elsker at se. Cobbs er en gennemprøvet udfordrer, der har store slagsmål erfaring. It’s good to see he is confident in his abilities to take on Rivera, en ubesejret up-and-coming udsigten med en meget lys fremtid.”
Den 33-årige Cobbs har ikke kæmpet i mere end to år, da han blev stoppet i anden runde ved sensationelle David Benavidez (19-0, 17 KOS), den 21-årige Regerende World Boxing Council (WBC) Super Mellemvægt Verdensmester.
“Folk troede, at jeg havde fået ud af boksning,” Cobbs forklarede. “”Jeg har aldrig holdt op med uddannelse, Jeg havde bare ikke nogen kampe siden Benavidez kampen. Jeg er en personlig træner og nu er jeg tilbage i boksning form. Jeg forlod aldrig boksning! Denne kamp er en stor mulighed for mig. Det kan åbne døre til uanset min lejr beslutter. Mit job er at gøre, hvad der er behov for i firkantede cirkel.”
Rivera har haft kun fem pro kampe og har ikke en rig amatør stamtavle. Han har aldrig været i ringen med nogen tæt på Benavidez. Cobbs har også diskuteret Winky Wright, Chad Dawson for begge hans kampe med Bernard Hopkins, Edwin Rodriguez, Peter Manfredo, Jr. og de fleste af de øverste nuværende New England boksere.
Mange tror Cobbs har en afgørende erfaring fordel i forhold Rivera og spørgsmålstegn ved, om han er klar til at optrappe i klassen til at kæmpe Cobbs. “Han har kun haft fem pro slagsmål,” Cobbs svarede adspurgt, “men jeg ved ikke, om han er klar. Jeg kan ikke svare på det, kun han kan. men vi vil finde ud af februar 10th. Jeg kan fortælle dig, at jeg er klar.”
Ironisk nok, Cobbs er fra Riveras hjemby, Hartford. Cobbs forklarede, at han kom ind i nogle problemer på Hartford gader som en ungdom, som førte til ham at genbosætte i Burlington, Vermont. Han til sidst åbnede et træningscenter i Fall River (MA) og arbejder nu på Everybody Fights.
“Jeg gør, hvad jeg kan lide at gøre,” Cobbs konkluderede. “I don’t have jitters like I did when I first started boxing Everything is easier now, Jeg er afslappet i ringen. Jeg er stadig læring på jobbet, men jeg er mere kvalificerede end jeg var sidste gang jeg kæmpede. Jeg er en boksekamp kamæleon: Jeg kan bokse eller bang for at imødegå min modstanders stil.”
Worcester to-tiden nationale amatør mester Bobby “BH3” Harris, III (2-0) møder brasilianske super mellemvægt Saul Almeida (0-8-1) i de fire-runde co-featured begivenhed. Hartford super mellemvægt Jose “Rated R” Rivera (4-1, 3 KOS) ansigter Troy “Omar KO Kunstner” kunstner (4-7-1 (3 KOS), af Danbury (CT) i en seks-round Bout.

Undefeated N.E. prospect Omar Bordoy, Jr. Prepared to make statement at “New Englands fremtid 5”

“New Englands fremtid 5”
Februar. 10 i Worcester, MA

WORCESTER, Masse. (Januar 24, 2018) – One of New England’s leading pro prospects, junior weltervægt Omar Borðoy, Jr., has prepared to make a statement February 10th på “New Englands fremtid 5”, presented Rivera Promotions Entertainment (RPE), på The Palladium i Worcester.
Fighting out of Danbury, Connecticut, Bordoy (3-0, 1 KO) faces Puerto Rican-born opponent, Alexander “El Bravo” Picot (2-4-1), i en fire-runder kamp. “My opponent is tough, and he always comes to fight,” Bordoy said. “He keeps coming forward and that’s going to make for an exciting fight.
The 22-year-old Bordoy is the typical example of a volatile teenager who found his way in boxing. He was a high school football player who started boxing at the age of 17. Bordoy had an abbreviated amateur career, highlighted by his winning performance at the New England Golden Gloves as a novice boxer.
I was a bad hot head as a kid,” Bordoy admitted. “En dag, my cousin Edgardo, invited me to his gym after football practice and he beat me up. I was knocked down a few notches. I got into boxing and enjoyed watching Miguel Cotto og Mike Tyson. I even have some of Cotto’s tattoos. Nu, I’m more of a boxer, like a Pernell Whitaker eller Floyd Mayweather, Jr. I’m a come- forward boxer who can still brawl. I’m working on my defense and feel that making adjustments in the ring is what I do best.
Bordoy, Jr. credits Team Bordoy — Direktør A.J. Galante, hoved træner Bennie Little, cut-man Luis Marichal, strength-and-conditioning coach Chris Mulfalmi og Dave McDonoughfor his success.
I’m pleased to be with the right people to bring me to the top and I’m willing to do what’s needed to get there,” Bordoy added.
Bordoy, who works fulltime as a repair technician, made his pro debut last May and he fought a total of three times in 2017, his most recent last October in Worcester on an RPE-promoted show, in which he stopped 34-fight veteran Bryan Abraham i fjerde runde.

Pressemøde CITATER
Jose Rivera, RPE CEO: “I’m excited because a press conference means the fights are getting closer. We plan to build our promotional company this year. There is a lot of talent in New England and that’s why we have so many Connecticut fighters on this card. I want the fighters here to understand the importance of a press conference. They will gain valuable experience speaking in public and being interviewed by the media. One of the primary reasons we’re promoting is to give young fighters a platform to box and prepare them for their pro careers.
A.J. Rivera, RPE President/Matchmaker: “The support we’ve received has been tremendous and we exceeded expectations in our first year. This is just the begining for RPE. We’re going to get better this year. We’re not satisfied just being a small promotional company. Boxing is the loneliest sport in the world and these boxers need fanssupport. There’s a lot of talent in New England and much of it is concentrated in Connecticut. We have more Connecticut fighters on this card than fighters from Massachusetts.
Richard Rivera: “Dette er en stor mulighed for mig. Rivera Promotions accomplished so much in its first year. I fought in the co-main twice of two previous RPE shows I fought on. This is going to be an awesome show, not just the main event. There are competitive boxers up and down the card. Må ikke blinke, don’t go to the bathroom because any one of these fights could end at any time.
This is a big step up for my career. Boxing is my passion. We’re both coming to fight. Vind, lose or draw we’ll see who the Alpha dog is at the end. “I’m ‘Popeye The Sailor Man’, and I’m good to the finish because I eat my spinach.
Kevin Cobbs: “I respect Rivera and believe in what I hear. He seems like a good dude. I’m excited about this fight. A lot of people weren’t sure about what I was doing because I hadn’t fought i to år da jeg fik opkaldet (to fight Rivera). Boxing took me out of the space was in and I never stopped boxing. This is going to be a big year for the Rivera’s. I like to switch it up and I’m ready to go.
Bobby Harris, III: “My opponent wants to redeem his brother’s loss to me. I want to thank RPE for putting me in the co-feature in only my third pro fight. My first two fights were a learning experience and this fight I’m looking to make a statement to showcase my talents. I have a lot to prove as the only Worcester fighter on this card.
Omar Borðoy, Jr:I’m fighting a tough opponent. Fighting is easier for me than talking up here. I’m fighting a guy from Hartford. I have a lot of love for his trainer and Hartford. I want my hand raised at the end of the fight.
Derrick Whitley:I want to thank Rivera Promotions for putting me on this card. I fought on two of their shows last year and came out 2-0. I’m looking to be 3-0. It was a learning experience going from the amateurs to pros. Everybody’s goal is to raise your level. I’m in the best shape of my life for this fight and doing things in the gym I’ve never done before. I’m looking for a stoppage.
Wilfredo Pagan: “Jeg er 37 years old and I’ve always had a glad to fight at least one pro fight. A couple of fights fell through but the Riveras opened the doors for me. I put it all into my fights. I was looking for one fight and this will be my fourth. I’m going to be 4-0.
Carlos Marraro, III: I want to thank Rivera Promotions for the opportunity to showcase my talents February 10th. This will be my first fight on a Rivera Promotions card, but I’m familiar with most of the fighters on this card.

Rivera, der var en 2016 Rocky Marciano turnering mester, tager plads på bænken en sensationel anden runde knockout af 146-kamp veteran Roberto Valenzuela dette tidligere December 9 i Hampton, New Hampshire.
“Jeg glæder mig til at have Richie boksning for UBF New England titel så tidligt i hans pro karriere,”” promotoren Jose Antonio Rivera, den pensionerede 3-tid, 2-division verdensmester. “Dette er tredje gang, vi har haft det privilegium at ham at kæmpe på en af ​​vores kort. Han kæmpede i den vigtigste begivenhed i vores sidste show (Oktober) på DCU Center. Rivera ser bedre og skarpere, hver gang jeg ser ham kamp. Jeg ser store ting kommer til ham. Han har de værktøjer og disciplin en træner kigger efter og en bokser har brug for at blive verdensmester. Himlen er grænsen for Richard og, for nu, Vi er taknemmelige for at spille en lille del at hjælpe med at udvikle karrieren.”
Rivera har med succes markedsført sin Popeye persona under hans unge pro boksning karriere, iført en sømands kasket i ringen med en traditionel Popeye-lignende rør dinglende i munden. “Der er flere grunde til mit kælenavn, 'Skipper Skræk', men da jeg var meget ung,” Rivera forklarede, “Jeg havde unormalt store underarme. Det bare stak med mig gennem årene, når folk henvist til mig i gymnastiksalen, så jeg har kørt med det. Jeg bringer liv tilbage til Hartford med tålmodighed, hele New England, med tålmodighed, udholdenhed og stil. Jeg bor i øjeblikket.”
Selvom han ikke vandt mange store priser eller turneringer som amatør bokser, Rivera fik uvurderlig erfaring boksning mange af de bedste amatører i New England og i nationale begivenheder, samt sparring med folk som tidligere verdensmestre Peter “Kid Chocolate” Quillin, Chad Dawson og Joe Smith, Jr. Han lærte også fra tid tilbragt i ringen med tidligere titel udfordrere Israel “snarere” Cardona og John Scully.
“Jeg tog min tid dreje pro, fordi jeg ikke har en støtteordning for at få mig til det næste niveau,” Rivera bemærkede. “Jeg var usikker. Den positive tilbagemeldinger jeg har modtaget fra krigere jeg sparred fodret ind i min tillid. Nu, i kun min sjette pro kamp, Jeg vil hovednavn for tredje gang, og kæmper for min første titel. Jeg kan ikke takke Riveras (Jose og hans søn, A.J.) nok til, hvad de har gjort for mig. De har troet på mig.”
Først, Rivera var noget tilbageholdende med at bekæmpe den mere erfarne Cobb men, efter at gøre nogle forskning, han accepterede udfordringen. “Jeg var lidt nervøs ved første,” han indrømmede. “Nogle var spørgsmålstegn, hvis jeg var klar til at optrappe at bekæmpe ham. Jeg gjorde nogle forskning: han havde ikke en større amatør karriere, eller kæmpede flere seks eller otte runder kampe end mig. Og jeg var den sparringspartner for den første pro at slå ham, Tyron Burris(TKO2 i 2012). Jeg er klar! Jeg er 27 og har brug for en kamp som denne.”
