Here is what Arnold Dinong had to say about his upcoming fight with Akitsugi, training camp with coach Bruno Escalante, and more.
On his recent training camp:
“We’ve been in camp for a while, waiting on the call and I’m grateful for the opportunity to finally be here. I have been training with my coach Bruno Escalante at Aloha Time Boxing Studio and we have a perfect game plan for Akitsugi. A lot of strength and conditioning has been implemented in this camp, and I think that will be the difference in this fight. I’m feeling good.”
On his matchup with Katsuma Akitsugi:
“I have been taking tough fights, and I don’t have a promoter, so I am looking to prove myself against Akitsugi. I am trying to fight the best-ranked opponents as possible, so I can put myself into contention for a regional belt. Katsuma is a very good fighter whom I am eager to face.”
On what a win would do for his career:
“Because I’ve been fighting tough guys, I’m hoping I can sign with Thompson with a victory against Akitsugi. Bruno Escalante and Mike Bazzel have put a lot of time and effort into me, and I have sacrificed a lot moving from Hawaii to the Bay Area. I met Bruno Escalante when I was 8-years-old, we were training partners, so a win would mean a lot as it has been a long journey.”
On fighting on 3.2.1. Boxing:
“I’m grateful that Thompson Boxing sees me as a fighter that can bring an exciting fight to their card. I have worked very hard in the gym, and Thompson Boxing has always treated me well. I am grateful to be the co-main event of this card and look forward to putting on a good fight for my friends and family. “
