Rolando ‘Rolly’ Romero says he will use a simple approach to defeat Ryan Garcia on May 2 on Times Square in New York in their welterweight headlist. Rolly (16-2, 13 food) mentions that he is just going to go out and “Punch him in the face.” That’s all it will take.
Romero says Ryan (24-1, 20 COs) just wants to be “a model” and is not interested in being a champion. He points out that Garcia has never won a world title. So it is a sign that he is not as good as he believes he is.
Rolly’s anger
Ryan got Rolly everyone and said it was going to be an easy battle for him, and he was going to beat him on May 2. It could be if he could land the same kind of shots as Isaac ‘Pitbull’ Cruz did last year when he knocked out Rolly.
“I don’t think he developed as a fighter. He does the same s ***, ”Rolly Romero said Ring magazineand respond to the fact that Ryan Garcia said he had developed as a fighter since their sparring session many years ago.
As you can see, Rolly is still poignant about Ryan and coach Abel Sanchez and says he is stagnated, and has not developed as a fighter since their sparring.
Indeed, Romero still uses the same, crazy, crazy male style he had when he became a pro nine years ago in 2016. That’s what Rolly knocked out in his fighting with Isaac Cruz and Gervonta Davis. There is nothing for Rolly to be ashamed of him that does not develop. It works for him, and it wouldn’t make sense for him to try to box.
Ismael Barroso would have stopped him in their fight in 2023, if not for referee Tony weeks who stopped the fight out of the blue to give him a ninth round TKO. It was a very dubious knockout.
Romero’s truth
“I got him far, but it didn’t work on me. When I haunted him, I was only boxing for three years, ”Rolando continued about his sparring with Kingry some time ago. “I started boxing at 17.” A multinational. He started boxing at five. Damn, it took him so long to develop somewhat.
“I’m very impressed, but he was still not a champion. The only time he had the opportunity to be a champion was against Gervonta, but instead of sacrificing the extra pound to try to make 135, he (Garcia) decided not to.
“With Devin, we clearly know that he was not trying and that he did not want to be a champion. He wants to be a model. The only thing I’m interested in is Ryan Garcia at the moment, ”says Rolly.
