From Dressing Room to Victory

A YouTube video (filmed before Hernandez won the USBO title) offers a unique insight into the mind and life of a professional boxer, taking the viewer along with pro fighter Joey Hernandez from the dressing room to the ring in October 2010, as Hernandez defeats challenger Saul Duran by stoppage in the second round at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino Hollywood in Hollywood, Florida.[2]
