How do you feel hours after your fight?
Very happy and grateful to all the public and the promoters who will dispute a title and that it be before the fans of Culiacán. An opportunity comes to me at a very good time in my career. I have to face a tough rival, but we are prepared not to disappoint everyone who meets at the Sports Center or watches the fight on television.
Is this the first time you fight for a championship?
That’s how it is. And very happy that it is endorsed by the World Boxing Council, because any fighter who is starting out professionally wants a fight for that body.
How do you feel physically?
I feel very good, motivated. Well prepared and confident in the preparation and not in the rival. We did some preparation at a camp with Isaac “Pitbull” Cruz in Mexico City. I will give the people of Culiacán a show.
What does the ESPN platform represent for you? It represents a good leap, a big step in my career, since it is a very solid company with millions of viewers.
I’m happy because my fight will be televised in front of a lot of people, so I’m committed to myself.
What are the aspirations of Héctor “Güerito” Escobar in the box?
I set my goal very high, because many boxers just want to be world champions; I also want to be, but not only in one category but in several.
Who are your idols?
I have several, but mainly Mike Tyson, Manny Pacquiao and Julio César Chávez, the three of them are my idols.
If Héctor Hernández had the opportunity to have a cup of coffee with someone, who would it be and why?
With my mom, who is no longer with us and would like to have a coffee with her.
