“First country in the world where you take off your mask and they already declare you the winner. First country in the world where you take off your gloves and they already declare you the winner,” he expressed in an energetic tone, questioning the decision that ended the fight.

Casablanca insisted that boxing is resistance and determination until the last moment, regardless of visible blows or injuries.

“Just because you’re bleeding or have a busted eye doesn’t mean you have to stop the fight. This is about going the distance,” he stated.

During his statements, he pointed out that many boxers end fights with inflammation and blows, but that, according to him, is part of the sport. “I am normal, I am fine. I would pay right now to keep fighting 200 rounds,” he maintained. The event “Alofoke at the Agganis” brought together hundreds of Dominicans residing in Boston and other cities in the United States, becoming one of the most talked-about activities of the weekend in the diaspora.
