“KIKA” READY TO POLISH OFF “LA JOYA” IN THE WBC DIAMOND BELT GRAND FINALE
Yessica “Kika” Chavez is in perfect peak condition to confront Esmeralda “Joya” Moreno in the Grand Finale of the Female Diamond Belt of the World Boxing Council.
Kika awaits the announcement of day, time and venue, for the most important showdown in the history of Mexican women’s boxing.
“I’ve been reading info on social networks. Some people somehow think I’m injured and it’s not like that. It’s just a minor thing. I see it as something normal as I am working hard on the gym to get the victory, but that does not mean I’m injured and I cannot fight. There’s a lot of difference! I don’t know who said that or who invented it or where it came from?
“We have contemplated the month of August for the fight We are already making the selection of the girls who will help me with the sparring and my manager Ignacio Beristaín is already analyzing in meticulous detail the latest fights of Esmeralda.”
This will be the third time these two face each other. Intriguingly and so far, the balance is one victory apiece! “I agree with the words of Esmeralda saying that we are contesting far more than the belt that night. That has been crystal clear since The day I decided to participate in this tournament . Kika Chavez didn’t just come to see what was happening! I am here to win it, because I want to be the best in boxing history in Mexico and for that I have to win the Diamond belt.
“This will be the most important fights of our careers and perhaps our lives. If she is motivated by her daughter, then I’m super motivated by my hunger for triumph, for glory, for being the best of all times and that there is no doubt about it!”
