Earning Roman “Chocolatito” Gonzalez’s respect is key. Carlos Cuadras needs to be aggressive and show Gonzalez his power early on in this fight.
If Cuadras can earn Gonzalez’s respect or even surprise him with his pressure and the power he packs behind his punches, this will set himself up for victory.
With 27 knockouts, Cuadras has proven that he has the power to end fights prematurely.
Cuadras is used to fighting in this weight class, fighting bigger guys than Gonzalez, so if he can establish himself as the bully in this fight, he will have the ability to control the pace of this fight.
And Cuadras believes he has the power to beat Roman Gonzalez.
