What has been said?
Amanda serrano:
“I’m used to performing, going out and sitting and watching Jake perform. Now it’s the opposite,” said Serrano. “I don’t mind being co-main event, and he said there’s no way in the world that he was going to be the main event. This is my island. So I’m truly thankful for this opportunity. But it’s going to be kind of weird because it’s not only Jake that’s fighting, I have Krystal (Rosado), (Jonathan) Bomba (Gonzalez) and I have to watch all those fights before my fight. So, I’m gonna be a nervous wreck in the locker room, but I’m gonna be ready to go out there and perform.”
Nina meinke:
“It was great, it was absolutely amazing,” said Meinke, rated at No. 2 by The Ring at featherweight, referring to the moment in which she learned about this offer to fight in Puerto Rico. “As soon as we got the information that we’re going to fight Amanda Serrano, I was right back in the gym preparing for it. It’s great to be here. This is boxing, and it’s all about the atmosphere, and it motivates me a lot, so I can’t wait for a full Coliseo, which I think is going to be sold out. I’m really looking forward to it.”
