‘Pitbull’ Cruz overwhelmed Rolly in seven episodes after a fast-paced start to the fight in which the Mexican was very close to taking his rival to the canvas. The powerful overhands from the right and left took little time to take effect on Romero’s legs, who by the eighth round ran out of answers for the string of power blows.
The referee stopped the fight after the punishment and ‘Pitbull’ Cruz became Mexico’s eighth world champion in professional boxing by winning the World Boxing Association Super Lightweight belt.
After the exciting victory, ‘Pitbull’ Cruz celebrated effusively with barking honoring his nickname and for a few moments he wore his peculiar mask that resembles the snout of a dog.
Isaac Cruz detailed for TUDN prior to his fight with ‘Rolly’ Romero how the idea arose to create a mask that would honor his nickname, in addition to another object very precious to him in each fight.
“We had this mask made for my fight against Francisco ‘Bandido’ Vargas and we made it relevant to Pitbull’s nickname,” he commented on the accessory he uses from press conferences to weigh-in ceremonies.
Regarding the t-shirt with the phrase, ‘Dad, when you’re fighting, don’t give up’, ‘Pitbull’ Cruz explained that it was a gift from one of his sons.
“For me this shirt is very representative, it was marked not only in my heart and in my mind it was from my son the great Amadeo who told me on one occasion when I was going to fight against the ‘Bandido’ Vargas, he kept looking staring at the sky and told me: ‘Dad, when you are in the ring, don’t give up, you can do it,'” said the now Super Lightweight world champion.
TUDN spoke with the creator of the peculiar piece of music, rapper Doolsz, who not only honored Isaac’s career in professional boxing, but also his human side.
“His heart is tricolor
His fists have the taste
If his family comes first, he has been screwed from scratch
He always puts attitude
The best guy, you understand
He is clingy and guerrilla, that’s why his nickname dog…”
