Isaac 'Pitbull' Cruz Ready to Make Rolando Romero's Nightmares a Reality
Isaac "Pitbull" Cruz is unfazed by the trash talk from Rolando Romero as they prepare to clash in the ring on March 30, headlining the Amazon Prime pay-per-view event featuring Keith Thurman vs. Tim Tszyu. Romero, known for his colorful pre-fight antics, has labeled Cruz as a "chihuahua" in the build-up to their showdown. However, Cruz remains undeterred, confident that he will turn Romero's taunts into his worst nightmare. "I respect it," Cruz commented via a translator. "But in the end, this 'chihuahua' is ready to be Romero’s worst nightmare of his life." Despite not holding a world title in his career, the 25-year-old Cruz, hailing from Mexico City, has garnered attention and a strong fan base. His upcoming bout against Romero presents an opportunity to change that, with the fight marking Cruz's second attempt at a world title, this time in the junior welterweight division. "I am very happy and ready to face this new challenge," Cruz expressed. "We have had a great training camp, focusing on adapting to the new weight class." In contrast, Romero will be making his return to the ring since controversially stopping Ismael Barroso last May. Despite Romero's past achievements, Cruz remains focused on his own preparation and strategy for the fight. "We all have bad nights," Cruz acknowledged. "But I really couldn’t care less about Romero's past performance." With both fighters eager to claim victory, Cruz emphasizes his readiness to exploit Romero's weaknesses and secure the win. "I am not about to take anything away from him," Cruz affirmed. "But I am working on pinpointing his weaknesses and taking advantage of them." #IsaacCruz #RolandoRomero #Boxing
