Former WBA interim lightweight title holder American Rolando Romero (14-0, 12 KOs) is preparing for the most important fight of his career – on May 28 in Brooklyn (New York, USA) in the main event of the PPV show he will fight the WBA World champion star compatriot Gervonta Davis (26-0, 24 KOs).
Yesterday there was an open training session with Romero. He, to confess, surprised those present with some strange pas with his hands. The last time something like this was performed by absolute boxing debutant Irish MMA superstar Conor McGregor on the eve of the fight with the iconic Floyd Mayweather. However, it’s better to judge for yourself:

And here
in conversation with the media it was still the same old Romero – cocky, talkative, outrageous: “One round, damn it! Knock him out in the first round! If the kid said, then the kid will do it! I’ll knock him out with the first accurate blow. I’m telling you, this dumbass will jump out under my arm. I don’t like this tank. You know what this dude ran away from me twice when we offered to spar? I’ve been challenging him since 2017! Do you think if it wasn’t for me, the fight would have taken place? Figushki! I insisted on it! But he didn’t want to! Thought to spit again! I think he wanted to fuck some featherweight again.”
Romero is sure that he leads in mind games: “We met with him at the press, had a battle of views. And I directly felt that clot of nervous energy that emanated from him. He didn’t say a word to me. Yes, he does not even believe that he can beat me. He misses! Remind me at least one fight in which he would not miss from the kid. And I am more accurate and much more powerful. And you thought I was just threatening to knock out? No, I figured everything out! I think he lost in the previous fight to Isaac Cruz. But at least in that battle everyone saw how vulnerable he was. And he pisses those who can get a good gasp!
The legendary Joel Casamayor, the Olympic champion from Cuba, the conqueror of two weight categories among professionals, helped Romero in preparation for the fight: “It was cool that he helped. Even when I was just watching him, I was learning – he is such a slippery left-hander. He helped me practice movement and accuracy. He watched videos of how I knocked out dudes for amateurs. What? What I would like to pass on to Davis? I don’t have any messages for him. What for me words, if I have this here (smiles contentedly, scratches his fists)”.
Earlier, Romero promised that after the fight with him, Gervonta Davis would go on a drinking binge, threatened the “Tank” with brain damage. Have you seen the unexpected prediction from Teofimo Lopez? And here is the absolute champion of the division George Kambosos says: “Lopez was that clown. But even he is far from Romero.
