Unified WBO and IBF strawweight world champion Yokasta Valle has started her training camp. 

Valle is preparing to fight the WBA and WBC champion Seniesa Estrada as she looks to become the undisputed champion on March 29 at Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale, Arizona. The fight is broadcast on ESPN and Valle will be training at Freddie Roach’s Wild Card Boxing Club in Hollywood, Los angeles. 

“I have adapted very well to this camp,” she said about her first few days in training.  

“I am used to the rain in Costa Rica, so I feel good doing 10 rounds of sparring in such a short time. My team and I are creating plans A, B, C, and all the way to Z, to conquer this fight.

“I’m sure Seniesa isn’t aware of how hungry I am and she thinks this fight is going to be easy. 

“My hard work will show the moment Seniesa steps into the ring and realizes she was wrong.

“I’m training alongside great champions and hungry prospects. I’m training like I have no other option but to win. I’m determined to show the world that dreams happen, if you work hard for them, and believe me, I’m putting in the work.

“I’m Costa Rican, but not only am I feeling the love and support from my country, I’m feeling the support from everyone, Mexico, USA, Japan, Spain, UK, Central America, South America, so many countries. 

“I’m humbled to feel their support.”
