INTERVIEW WITH THE WINNER

 * QUESTION 1: Freud, we saw that you were hurt so much, you were taken down by Marlon during the 5th round and he punished you with lots of punches but you fought back...you even took him down once in the 11th round and 3 times in the 12th round, and you won by a comeback...what can you say?
 * FREUD GAGUA: Ah, first of all, I want to thank the support of my fans and I want to thank the Lord for this win. Well...all I can say is that...I really was hurt, Marlon is a great puncher.
