Rolly Romero Pens First Message After Sparring Video Leak

Strange leaked footage of sparring between J’Hon Ingram and Rolando Romero has been the recent talk of the town in the boxing world.

As per BoxingScene, Rolly Romero is scheduled to take on WBA super-lightweight title holder Alberto Puello.

He’s got a hunger to strive for more and is aiming to become a world champion. 

Rolly Romero has not been vocal about the leaked sparring video but shared the tweet of Michael Benson on his Instagram. Benson announced the news of Rolly’s upcoming about against Puello in April. Rolly added the story to his account and captioned it, “All I know is I’m going to be World Champion in 2 months”.

Rolly Romero’s leaked sparring footage

The viral sparring video surfaced from TMT. The clip went viral for all the wrong reasons, as Ingram knocked out Romero in sparring. Notably, J’Hon Ingram has has three bouts and came forth as the winner every time. Meanwhile, Rolly has lost one match via knockout and is also suspended by New York State Athletic Commission.

Sparring certainly does not hold any value when it comes to professional stats and shouldn’t likely be used as a source for judgment regarding who’s a better fighter since it’s a part of training. Fighters tend to make use of sparring sessions to try out new things which they can add to their future bouts later on. And leaking a sparring video is not seen in goodwill in the world of boxing, as it’s like breaking the gym code. But after watching the video, fans were led to conclude that Gervonta Davis changed his boxing career forever.

Many were also not happy about the video coming out and criticized the celebration from Ingram’s corner. The fans believed that it violates the decorum of a training session, as it is not an actual fight but rather just sparring, so there is no point in celebrating a knockout like that.
