I am just starting to peak and I am in great shape. My timing is back and I am ready for war.
Q) What type of nutrition/diet do you follow when training for a fight?
I have been on weight for the last few weeks so I get to eat pretty much what I want. I still don’t eat junk but I don’t starve myself to cut weight. I eat lots of chicken, broccoli, brown rice, peanut butter, and eggs.

I train at San Jose Boxing and Fitness with Joe Amato.

I’m not even sure what his name is. I couldn’t tell you anything about him.
Q) What will be your strategy for earning a victory/knockout against your opponent?
I am just going to go out there and box. I will feel him out and look to capitalize on what I see.
Q) Do you think that the crowd will be behind you or your opponent?
Coming from San Jose, I’m expecting the crowd to behind me 100 percent.
Q) What goes through your mind the last hours before a fight?
I try to stay calm but scenarios always run through your head about what is going to happen. I just pray for safety of all competitors and know that this is what I do and I have to fight to eat.

Keep an eye out for my fight, its going to be one you don’t want to miss.
