A difficult opponent

"When I faced him (as an amateur on Mexican soil), it was a tough fight. I fought him and his fans, and it motivated me a lot and made me happy. Here we have the same thing. I'm going to battle two opponents, him and his fans, but I'll still be the winner," he stated.

About Valdez's positive, the South American did not want to get into controversy and assured that he will look for the victory anyway.

You came out positive. It just breaks my heart," he told ESPN.
