Isaac Cruz Believes He’s At The Best Stage Of His Career Ahead Of Rolly Romero Fight

Isaac Cruz is ready for the challenge of boxing Rolly Romero.

Cruz is set to face Romero on March 30 in Las Vegas as the co-main event on the Tim Tszyu vs. Sebastian Fundora main event. Going into the fight, Cruz is the betting favorite and he believes he is in a good spot in his career to take on the challenge of boxing Romero.

“I would describe the Mexican style as a courageous style with a lot of punching. It’s a come forward style while remaining intelligent,” Cruz told Gloves Off. “I’m a fighter whose style is that of a brawler, that’s why I’m 100 per cent sure that I have the characteristics of a Mexican fighter…

“I don’t have the words to describe Romero,” Cruz added. “I don’t care if he talks or what he says, the chihuahua is going to show up, it’s going to transform [into a pitbull] and he will never forget it. He’s never going to see this chihuahua again, but it will be a nightmare for the rest of his life. He likes to talk, I like to talk, too, but with punches in the ring. I’m in the best stage of my career. I feel like I can take his world championship.”

Isaac Cruz enters the matchup on a three-fight winning streak and coming off a split decision win over Giovanni Cabrera, while also beating Eduardo Rodriguez and Yuriorkis Gamboa, while his loss came to Gervonta Davis.

Rolly Romero, meanwhile, is 15-1 and coming off a TKO win over Ismael Barroso to return to the win column after a TKO loss to Gervonta Davis.

Romero is looking to defend his WBA super lightweight title for the first time against Cruz.
