“I know Carlos says a lot about my nickname but on Saturday night he will feel the fists of Chocolate,” said Gonzalez. “I need to throw combinations and keep him off-guard to win the fight. This fight is for all my people in Nicaragua and especially dedicated to my mentor, the great Alexis Arguello. I don’t think about other fights or how high I can move up. I just focus on Saturday night against Cuadras.”
