When asked about his upcoming fight Carlos mentioned, “I’m ready for the next level. My team and I are happy with the way things are going for both my brother and I. I come to entertain the fans so you’ll see me come for the knockout, that’s what I like to do.” Carlos, who fights at featherweight, will strive to stay undefeated and move on to 10-0.
Twin Brother, Juan Veleasquez, boast a (9-0, 5 KO’s) record and is known for his lighting fast hands. Juan is coming off an impressive second round TKO in which he demolished Edison Morillo at the 1:44 mark of the second round. “I’ve learned a lot in every fight so I feel my knowledge in the ring is improving.” said Juan, “I’m becoming a smarter fighter. I cans see all the punches coming at me better. I love to box and use my speed to set up my punches. If the knockout is there I’ll take my opponent out.”
