‘Barby’ ambitiously commented: “I have the dream of being a super bantamweight champion, so I can not make any mistakes here! I did a great job in the gym and this fight is dedicated to Puebla.”
Also audacious Carolina said: “I have always admired Mariana and all the Mexican boxers, yet…I am really ready for this fight, I have good boxing skills and I am going to prove it!”
