Lamont Roach Jr. called for an immediate rematch with Isaac 'Pitbull' Cruz, interim WBC super lightweight champion, after fighting to a majority draw last weekend in San Antonio, Texas.

During the post-fight press conference, Roach Jr. stated that he should have won the fight and believes a rematch on equal terms would be best" "The best thing would be to proceed with an immediate rematch. I'd say on equal terms," ??said the American boxer. In a hard-fought fight, Pitbull Cruz showed his aggression from the start and with a left hook in the third round sent Lamont Roach Jr. to the canvas. The American was able to recover and in the middle rounds counterattacked the Mexican fighter despite having broken his right hand in the fifth. In the seventh round, referee James Green deducted a crucial point from Cruz for low blows. Both fighters closed the bout with heavy exchanges of blows, and in the end, one judge scored it 115-111 for 'Pitbull,' while the other two judges scored it a draw 113-113. After the result was announced, both Pitbull Cruz and Lamont Roach Jr. stated that they believed they had won the fight and now agree that they want a rematch. Lamont Roach Jr., 29, drew for the second consecutive time—the first against Gervonta Davis—but this time against the Mexican. The American has a professional record of 25 wins (10 by knockout), one loss, and three draws. Isaac 'Pitbull' Cruz, 26, retained his WBC interim super lightweight title and could potentially face the American in a rematch. The Mexican boxer now has a professional record of 28 wins (18 by knockout), three losses, and two draws.
