I was just sailing, "the explanation is in his style. In the end, he earned a standing ovation from the fans, and they could be more than happy with what he said about his next fight. "I want to fight in three or four months.
I'm ready to jump in as soon as possible, I'm not damaged. I'm back in training next week.

I had to wait instead another month, ”he announced his return, concluding the reasons for this defeat along the way.
