“He had a short temper and he came out talking trash so you know I had to talk my trash back,” continued Bocachica. “But it was all part of the game plan to get him emotional in the ring and it worked in my advantage.”

With the win, the native of Detroit raised his perfect mark to 17-0. Reyes of Tampa, Florida is 14-1.
