Mexican people are very warm and friendly. I was able to adjust and adapt the new environment. They are very kind and helpful.

Winning the title itself is the most rewarding. That is the goal of every boxers.

Growing up with my brothers has helped me a lot in training. I have learned a lot from them. The moves, their advice and all other stuff. I maybe the youngest, but my older brothers helped me a lot in order to achieve what they have achieved.

I have the basic skills already, my basic weapons if we put it that way. From there I can add more the necessary skills I need for a particular opponent. I have to study all the aspects of my opponent, so when I am in the ring, everything will be automatic.

The first time I went to Mexico, it was really difficult. Number one is the language, I didn't know any Spanish language. Of course, the culture itself. Very different from where I grew up.

I am learning continuously and my enthusiasm in fighting is always high. Like a child that is always learning and always want to achieve my goal.

Mexican style of boxing training is different from what my father had trained me. It was good for me because it was an added knowledge, an addition to my boxing IQ.
