“Alacrán” Berchelt determined to school “Mickey” Roman

After his convincing triumph over Argentine Jonathan Víctor Barros at Polifórum Zamna in Mérida, Yucatán,  succesfully defending his WBC super featherweight belt for the third time, champion  Miguel “Alacrán” Berchelt stresses that  it’s high time mandatory challener Mickey Roman, came back to earth…with an almighty bump!

Miguel must next fight mandatory contender Miguel “Mickey” Román (60-12, 47 kos) in what’s expected to transpire as a classic boxer Vs fighter contest, with the added vim that they’re both proud Mexicans!

“I have never ran away from him, I fulfilled my previous commitments as a champion, Roman is no one to demand.  I will comply with my mandatory fight. And I will show him his reality  “said Berchelt (34-1, 30 kos), who was cheered last Saturday by the Yucatan public after his demonstration of power over the Argentine challenger.

Also last Saturday, “Mickey” Roman knocked  Venezuelan Michel Marcano in the second round, quashing and squashing  his undefeated record, with an eye watering left hook to the liver.

“Román has talked a lot and it is now time to teach him a lesson of humility and respect. We are going to knock him out.  I only hope that the negotiations will be finalized to define the venue and date and we will be in the ring and there….he will truly will feel my power.”

Berchelt’s coach, Alfredo Caballero, said the strategy is to give the “Alacran” ten working days of rest, but then to return to training.

“We are going to execute a plan that was already designed to fight with Roman. We are never over confident, but Berchelt’s capabilities are better than Roman’s,  and he will easily defeat him,  to contest great fights that await him .” Caballero stated.

Roman has won his four most recent fights by knockout.
