Solano, (14-0, 10 Kos), is not concerned about the last minute opponent change. “It doesn’t matter who I fight. I trust my team and my skills,"Dedi. “I don’t worry about who is across from me. I would have beaten the first guy and I will beat this guy too. I don’t train to beat one fighter specifically. I train to beat all fighters and I make adjustments in the ring. Some fighters get upset when the opponent changes. Not me. Even if my team says they want me to fight a different guy at the weigh-in, my job stays the same.”



Solano is a hard punching 26-year-old from Monteria, Colombia who started boxing at the age of seven; he amassed an amateur record of 118-12.

“I checked out videos of Solano. I think he is going to come to fight. He’s training out of Compton, California, so he’s going to come more than ready, həmçinin. These are the ingredients for a good show.”



Araujo (19-1, 7 Kos) replaces fellow compatriot Jose Romero, who was forced to withdraw from the bout due to an injury.
