Discuss your first fight against Chavez Jr. and what can fans expect to see in the rematch at the Alamodome in San Antonio, TX?
“The first fight against Chavez was a good fight for me. I threw more punches and landed more punches. Those facts are not subjective. It is what it is.
I know I won the fight. I controlled the ring and backed Chavez up the entire fight. The public was very positive towards me and they are the reason I got this rematch with Chavez. I have gained a lot of fans since the first fight. The public knew I won the fight and that’s very important to me.
As far as the rematch, what people can expect is a determined Bryan Vera. I was good the last fight but this fight I have to be better. I will be in great shape. I will bring the fight to Chavez. I will give the fans a great and exciting fight. I have put a lot of work into this opportunity and I will take advantage of the situation. I’m ready!!! Know that I am coming to fight but more than that KNOW that I am coming to WIN!”
