Here is what the main event fighters had to say Samdi:
MIGUEL VAZQUEZ
I wanted to throw the heavier punches because I thought I could win by knockout, but that didn’t happen. There was an overhand right in the eighth round that I thought hurt him badly.
He was an elusive fighter and survived, so there are still things that I have to work on.
There was some difficulty adjusting to the late opponent switch, but overall, pa gen okenn pwoblèm. I had been sparring southpaws as well as right-handers.
If I could have followed up on some of the hooks and overhand rights, I could have gotten him out of there.
I’ve always wanted to fight Adrien Broner. I want to make that.
ERICK ZO
Vazquez was awkward and hard to fight. I gave it my all in there.
I’m thankful for the opportunity and I’m looking forward to getting back in the gym and working on some things before I return to the ring.
