Rolando Romero was last seen in the ring defeating Ryan Garcia in the middle of Times Square in Novel York.
The Garcia vs. Romero fight was headlined by Ring Magazine card over 12 months ago.
Over the past year, “Rolly” has been involved in numerous public discussions about potential next fights, but so far, none of them have come to fruition.
He has also spoken out about retirement many times on social media.
Interview with the WBA welterweight world champion Professional boxing fans on behalf Betinia and talked about his time spent outside the ring.
“God doesn’t make mistakes, I shouldn’t fight.
“Mentally, emotionally and physically I just couldn’t fight.
“When I tried to force these fights, for some reason God just got in the way and I just couldn’t fight.
“If I had fought at any of those times I would have lost, I just know it.”
After a hard year, the champion believes he is now ready to return and defend his welterweight title for the first time.
After a career-best recent performance, Romero believes he can perform even better when he steps into the ring again.
“I’m ready to fight now, I’m the best version of myself I’ve ever seen.
“It’s amazing, I’m now the best version of myself in all aspects of my life.”
One fighter “Rolly” was linked to upon his return was the iconic Manny Pacquiao, who last saw action in July, defeating Mario Barrios in a majority draw.

“That was the end of him, they were begging me to fight, I wanted to fight Ryan.
“Me and Ryan had a rematch clause, we had the whole deal agreed and everything.
“Pacquiao kept asking for the fight and we negotiated for two months.
“He kept wanting more money even though he couldn’t sell what he asked for.
“The fight was blown and about a month and a half later the whole Floyd thing came out.

“They just wasted my time, took advantage of my clout.”
“Pac Man” is now set to return against Floyd Mayweather Jr in an iconic rematch of their historic first meeting in 2015, which the American won.
Romero’s return date and next opponent remain unknown, but some possible names include Jack Catterall, who became the mandatory number one contender for the WBA title after a dominant victory over Shakhram Giyasov.

Ryan Garcia may also be looking to make amends after their first fight, although he appears poised to defend his WBC title against Conor Benn after stating that the pair would fight on September 12 during an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.
Over the past 12 months, Romero has repeatedly attacked WBO world champion Devin Haney, potentially setting the stage for a future unification fight.

Adam Azim returned to action last night, stopping Steve Claggett, and both Ben Shalom and Shane McGuigan shared their thoughts on the performance.
McGuigan and Shalom agreed on the levels Azim could reach.
Last night, ‘The Killer’ made his first appearance since last November when he defeated Kurt Scoby in the rematch between Conor Benn and Chris Eubank Jr.
The Briton dominated before stopping Scoby in the final round.
He faced Claggett and made brief work of his opponent, dropping him in the second round before forcing the referee to step in in the third.
Claggett was expected to be a real test for Azim. He had not been stopped for over 11 years before the fight and in 2024 he went the distance of Teofimo Lopez for the world title.
After the victory, Azim’s promoter spoke on the BBC broadcast.
Shalom has been working with the 24-year-old since his second professional fight after an illustrious amateur career.
“It was ridiculous, the way he put Steve Claggett together.
“He [Azim] he beats every fighter in the 140 division.
“It was phenomenal.”
Azim is high in the rankings of many governing bodies as he looks to secure a shot at winning the world title before the end of the year.

Adam Azim Rankings with Major Governing Bodies
- IBF: 7th
- WBA: No ranking
- WBC: 9
- WBO: 7
- Ring magazine: 9
His coach, McGuigan, shared a similar view to Shalom i revealed the heights he believes in Azim can reach.

“I don’t think he’s just going to win the world title, he’s going to unify.
“He will become a world champion in many weight classes.”
One champion Azim continues to be linked to is long-time rival Dalton Smith, who currently holds the WBC junior welterweight title.
Smith defeated Subriel Matias to win the belt in January via fifth-round TKO.

Azim was asked about the fight with the Sheffield man and he shared his thoughts.
“I’ll win the belt first and then we’ll talk about Dalton Smith.
“I would fight him tomorrow if I had to.”
