- Long lines are the story of my life! Everyone doesn’t mind waiting as they know this will be a great event.
-
- After the long lines, you have to expect the BIG crowds! This is a room full of cowboy hats, fight promoters, fans, and more.
-
- Do you need customer service? Here are the Telemundo girls walking around. They passed out wristbands, car chargers, and other items as we waited on drinks, and the long awaited fights
-
- The fight fanatics keep the fighters motivated to win. Here’s a candid shot of one of the supporters of #TeamNoNo I ran into at the fight showing support for Noemi Bosques.
-
- LET THE FIGHTS BEGIN! The fighters geared up for the 1st fight as they looked in each other’s eyes with the aspiration to win!
-
- After the long lines and the lobby filled with people, it’s finally good to sit and watch as the fight proceeds.
-
- As the first fight proceeds, the fatigue wears in. The fighters take the time to rest on each other’s chest and/or shoulders as they prepare for the next big punch.
-
- This is what they train for!! The knockout is one of the mesmerizing moments if a fighter is caught off guard as in this picture.
-
- Even though he was able to recover from the knockdown, he didn’t win in the end. Overall it was a great fight between the both of them.
-
- As a fighter with a lot on the line, so much goes through their minds, such as family, job, reputation, and furthermore the hunger to win.
-
- As they square off, they trainers watch on the side of the ring in hopes that all of their hard work shows in the middle of the right.
-
- You definitely need drama to make it a complete fight! The opponent of Noemi Bosques throughout the fight kept putting her hands in the air to let the judges know that she wasn’t doing any holding.
-
- The fight must go on. With every punch thrown, the boxer anticipates them all. Ducking and dodging left and right hooks, playing offense while on the defense, while at the same time the crowd in yelling out the boxer’s name!!
-
- After the fight was over, a nearby boxing fan waves at me as I took pictures. She looks happy here, but she was one of the biggest fans I’ve even seen.
Overall this was a great experience and a great fight. So much visually to see, and I’m glad that I could capture some of the moments.
