\u201cA stoppage will probably be an enormous statement, but truthfully, I\u2019m going to go in there and fight my fight and do what I can. I\u2019m not going to go on the market in search of the knockout either. I never have. Hopefully I perform well that night and get these big fights that I\u2019ve been wanting,\u201d said Muratalla to Top Rank Boxing.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The upcoming title defense serves as an instantaneous test of Muratalla\u2019s durability. He hasn\u2019t fought since his grueling January 24 majority decision win over Andy Cruz, a contest where he absorbed an amazing amount of fresh shots. Along with his face showing severe wear and tear after 12 rounds of relentless pressure, questions remain about what that punishing victory took out of him.<\/p>\n

Conceicao boasts world-class experience, yet his record at 135 kilos is remarkably light for a championship challenger. Somewhat than earning his way through the lightweight rankings, his entire body of labor within the division relies on wins over minor opposition in Helber Rojas and Yonnaiquer Rondon.<\/p>\n

Top Rank\u2019s matchmaking is sensible. Somewhat than matching Muratalla against a younger, higher-ranked contender with greater punching power after the punishment he absorbed against Cruz, the promotion opted for the 37-year-old Conceicao. Saturday\u2019s fight should provide an excellent indication of how Muratalla has responded from the hardest night of his profession.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cI\u2019m expecting an excellent challenge from him. We all know he has experience with a number of good fighters. He brings a high pace, comes forward, and throws so much,\u201d said Muratalla. \u201cHe doesn\u2019t quit, and he knows his way across the ring. We comprehend it\u2019s going to be a difficult fight, but so long as I\u2019m prepared, I\u2019m going to return out with the victory.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Reflecting on recent training camps, the titleholder believes the work put in since his last outing has prepared him for this test.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cOverall, I\u2019ve been improving all the pieces that I worked on after my last fight. Footwork, speed, power, just improving in all those areas,\u201d said Muratalla. They know my style thoroughly, they usually just tell me to be myself and proceed to do what I do.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Muratalla believes that approach will develop into increasingly effective because the fight moves into the later rounds.<\/p>\n

\u201cI see this fight playing out in my favor. I\u2019m going to go on the market and do what I do. I\u2019ll deal with business and get the win. I see myself within the late rounds hurting him,\u201d said Muratalla.<\/p>\n
