Sa ganda ng kanyang training vs Marquez Viloria ‘di inisip na matatalo

MANILA, Philippines - Sinabi kahapon ni unified WBO/WBA flyweight champion Brian Viloria na naging perpek-to ang kanilang fight plan para talunin si Mexican Hernan ‘Tyson’ Marquez sa 1:01 ng 10th round sa Los Angeles at hindi siya nag-alala na matatalo sa kabila ng ilang pagkakataon na muntik na siyang matumba.

“The plan was to stick my jab in his face, go down to the body, pile up the points and make him desperate so he comes char-ging into my attack zone,” ani Viloria. “We figured he would look out for my left hook over the top so I went to the body to slow him down a bit.  I wanted to frustrate him with my jab, combinations and movement.  When he got despe-rate because he was way behind on points, I waited for him to come in and make a mistake.  Then, I got him with the left hook.”

Isang right hook ang ikinonekta ng 31-anyos na si Viloria sa panga ni Marquez para pabagsakin ito sa first round. 

Isang four-punch flurry na nagtapos sa isang right straight ang muling nagpatumba sa Mexican sa fifth round.

Muling tumumba si Marquez sa round 10 buhat sa isang left hook ni Viloria bago inihagis ni trainer Robert Garcia ang kanyang tuwalya para ipatigil kay referee David Mendoza ang laban.

“Marquez didn’t surprise me with what he did,” sabi ni Viloria.  “If there was anything that he did different, it was his inactivity in the early rounds. It was like he was waiting for me to tire out.  I took advantage to pick up rounds because I knew he would get desperate.  I was in great shape.  I didn’t get tired.  I could’ve gone five to six more rounds.”

Sinabi ni Viloria na kontrolado niya ang laban mula simula hanggang matapos.  “I didn’t rush it .I boxed him out and coasted in the late rounds since I was ahead on points anyway. I knew at some point, he would come in and make a mistake In my corner, Ruben (Gomez) and Marvin (Somodio) kept reminding me to just stick to the fight plan, not to stray from it, to execute what we trained to do in the gym.”
