![]() ![]() Read: Tyson Fury “In Talks” For Possible Fight With Demsey McKeanĬIANI: Sticking with the Ward fight for a moment here, Edwin. I’m ready to beat him and make a statement. I’m ready to take on the young prospect coming up. So yeah, it puts on a lot of pressure, but we as fighters we perform well under pressure. Andre Ward put on a great performance against Chad Dawson, arguably the best light heavyweight right now. RODRIGUEZ: It’s definitely a lot of pressure. He’s undefeated, he’s strong minded, and I think he’s a very good prospect coming up.ĬIANI: Now how do you feel about having the opportunity to have your bout broadcast as the main event on HBO following a fight they just had this past weekend, the big fight between Andre Ward and Chad Dawson? RODRIGUEZ: I think he’s one dimensional, a strong fighter, comes forward. I’ve been working with Cornelius White, who’s top ten in the world at 175, and Don Mouton and me did ten rounds on Tuesday, and I feel great.ĬIANI: Now when you look at Escalara, your opponent, what do you think of him as a boxer? Me and Ronnie had a really good training camp where we were able to sit down and learn a few things, and just get a really good game plan for this next fight. So you’re confident in your preparations for this fight thus far? You said the training camp is going great. ![]() I’m here in Houston, Texas with Ronnie Shields having a great training camp.ĬIANI: Great! Now you have a big fight coming up September 29 against Jason Escalara. ![]() How’s everything going, Edwin?ĮDWIN RODRIGUEZ: Everything is great. This is Geoffrey Ciani from East Side Boxing and I’m here with super middleweight contender Edwin Rodriguez. He also provided opinions on a variety of topics, including the chemistry he shares with head trainer Ronnie Shields, Andre Ward’s impressive victory against Chad Dawson last weekend, his idea on what it would take to beat someone of Ward’s caliber, and more! Here is a complete transcript from that interview. Rodriguez spoke about his upcoming fight and shared his views on his opponent. And I definitely have put a lot of time and effort into this site whether you want to believe that or not.“I want to be able to make a statement my next fight to get a guy like Kelly Pavlik, or Arthur Abraham, or one of those big names” – Edwin RodriguezĮxclusive Interview by Geoffrey Ciani – I was recently afforded the opportunity to speak with undefeated super middleweight contender Edwin Rodriguez (21-0, 14 KOs) who is preparing to square off against fellow undefeated fighter Jason Escalara (13-0-1, 12 KOs) on September 29 in a bout that will be televised by HBO. But I do wish you wouldn't complain so much about a lot. I'm not telling you this for thanks, I don't want thanks from you. All by myself since then, until Cody came on a couple of months ago and he is a big help to me with all the data input.Īlso I went back and added historical data, any fight pre 2019 is me(though now Cody has started adding to this as well) Basically I have added every single boxing fight, created every single event, created every single boxer profile added all the posters, pictures and links. I'm not sure if you realise but there was no boxing at all on this site until 2019 and very little until I started in late 2019 Thanks for the "thanks" for all my "work". Even for some smaller events if I happen to be watching them I do usually add the results live for the big events, I've always done that. I certainly don't care if you want to add results. ![]() No one is stopping you posting results in the thread. ![]()
