“There is something empty in my career and I want to fill it with an Olympic medal.
That’s the only thing missing,” he added.

My punch is more effective, faster and brings more weight and strength.
Fights in pro boxing are much more difficult and also very.
risky.
With risk, I mean there is a risk of life.
Gloves used boxers in professional boxing are very small and minimal padding.
It’s basically like a bare road fight that has rules.

Previously, I only used my opponent’s punch.
Now I can flip and bring other defensive maneuvers.

Enjoy watching my fight.
