Sosa of Camden, New Jersey has been on a roll as he has won 9 consecutive bouts of which 8 have come via knockout.
Sosa just completed a month long training camp in Easton, PA. with his fellow members of Mark Cipparone’s Club 1957 Management and is focused for Aguilar.
“Training was great. I went to camp with all my guys. This actually was my first training camp and I can clearly say I am in the best shape of my life,” said the 26 year-old.
“I really don’t know much about Aguilar other than he is from Costa Rica. My trainer Chino Rivas does all the scouting. I do the training but I prepare myself for anything.”
Sosa, whose only loss was a short notice fight at 140 pounds considers himself to be an undefeated fighter.
“I consider myself an undefeated fighter. That loss changed me and ever since then I have been getting better with each fight. I only had 3 amateur fights and that why I keep getting better. I keep going forward and 2015 is my year.”
The native of Camden, New Jersey continued speaking about his upward curve towards being a contender.
“As soon as I turned professional It was something the struck in me. I thought, I am a professional and now I am taking this to another level.”
“I want to thank all my supporters and that includes my manager Mark Cipparine and Club 1957 Management. You will see a great performance on Friday night.”
“There has been a lot of talk about Sosa’s lack of fights during the past year and to set the record straight the business of boxing sometimes hits harder than the opponents. This is true of Sosa and I am here to reassure all the boxing so called “experts” that Jason has been perfecting his craft every inch of the way! Now that all the politics seem to be lined up you can expect great things from this KO King!”, said Sosa’s manager, Mark Cipparone of Club 1957 Management.
