In his last bout, Rodriguez pounded out a majority decision victory over a very defensive minded counter puncher by the name of Marqus “Goose” Jackson (2-3, 2KO’s). Though Juan won the fight, he was disappointed in his performance. “My grandmother passed before the fight and I really lost focus,” said Rodriguez. She helped to raise me and I was really close to her. It showed in the ring as I abandoned everything I was taught to do and swung wildly for the knockout,” noted Rodriguez. “My punches became wide and it allowed Jackson to stay in the fight.”
“I immediately went right back in the gym and worked on tightening up my shots. My power is back! I am in fantastic shape and ready to show the world my true talents come Friday night,” exclaimed Rodriquez. “You won’t want to miss this one!!!”
The main event of the evening is an important ten round junior middleweight crossroads battle between Matt “The Predator” Vanda (43-11, 23KO’s) and Ossie “The Ghanaian Gladiator” Duran (24-8-2, 9KO’s).
