For me to see him growing, showing a high degree of professionalism, which is really important to be successful in this game, it’s been amazing,” Wade continued. “He catapulted himself into the division like he’s done with everything else. “I’ve had the opportunity to watch Rolly grow up to see him go from six rounds to twelve rounds, so he didn’t have the opportunity to gradually evolve into it,” said Rolly’s strength& conditioning coach Larry Wade to Fighthype. Preview Rolly’s unpredictability will be a problem Read: Oleksandr Usyk defends against Daniel Dubois on on August 26th in Wroclaw, Poland In a tougher than expected bout, #4 WBC super featherweight contender Eduardo Ramirez (27-2-3, 12 KOs) beat Luis Melendez (17-2, 13 KOs) by a 10 round majority decision. Unbeaten junior middleweight Jesus Ramos (19-0, 15 KOs) had too much talent for Luke Santamaria (13-3-1, 7 KOs), outworking him by a wide 10-round unanimous decision. It’s unknown why the organizers of this card didn’t put Lara in with a better opponent than #10 WBA O’Sullivan because this was the chief support bout on a card that is selling for $74.95 on PPV. The referee finally decided he’d seen enough and halted the fight in the eighth round after the 39-year-old Lara stunned O’Sullivan with a jarring left to the head. From that point on, Lara had O’Sullivan hurt in rounds five, six, seven, and eight. O’Sullivan was dropped like a bad habit in the fourth by the Cuban Lara. ![]() ![]() “I’m a superstar, I was made to be a superstar,” said Rolly.In the chief support bout on the card, WBA secondary middleweight champion Erislandy Lara (29-3-3, 17 KOs) defeated terribly overmatched fringe contender Gary “Spike” O’Sullivan (31-5, 21 KOs), stopping the aging 37-year-old Ireland native in the eighth round in a woefully one-sided contest. “One punch,” Rolando said about how he’ll end the fight with Tank. “I don’t think he’s a very cuddly person either. I’m not a very cuddly person,” said Rolly when asked if he and Tank can ‘hug it out after the fight. “I don’t like the way he looks, I don’t like his face. “Even when he’s in shape, his body looks like s***,” said Rolly. “I’m not a fat disgusting swine like my opponent. ![]() “Because my body looks good,” said Rolly Romero when asked why he didn’t wear his shirt during the face-off with Gervonta Davis on Thursday. He showed Tank no respect at all, tearing into him, and not holding back one bit on what he thought of him. Now, Rolly is getting a second chance, and it’s as if nothing has changed from last year. Last year, Rolly was pulled from the card after vicious allegations surfaced about him, which is necessary for Isaac ‘Pitbull’ Cruz to be used as Tank’s opponent for his December 5th fight. Where Rolly went a little overboard is saying that Tank resembled a “swine.” That’s some gratitude Rolly showed Tank for being given a second chance. When the unbeaten #1 WBC challenger Romero was asked why he didn’t have his shirt on, he saw it as a cue to trash Tank’s sometimes chubby physique. Rolly surprised the media by facing off with Tank Davis without his shirt on.
