Kevin Borjas wasn't concerned with 'Lazy Boy' Rodriguez's weight miss at UFC Mexico
MEXICO CITY – Kevin Borjas met the media Saturday after his win over Ronaldo Rodriguez at UFC on ESPN 64.
Borjas (10-3 MMA, 1-2 UFC) picked up his first UFC win and snapped a two-fight skid when he outworked Ronaldo Rodriguez (17-3 MMA, 2-1 UFC) for a unanimous decision to open up the main card at Arena CDMX in Mexico City. “Lazy Boy” Rodriguez missed weight for the fight and was fined 20 percent of his purse on top of Borjas’ upset.
Borjas said he wasn’t thinking about Rodriguez’s issues on the scale.
“If ‘Lazy Boy’ missed weight, it’s his problem,” Borjas told MMA Junkie at his post-fight news conference. “I’m a totally professional fighter. I was focused on the fight. I was focused on my training partners. We know we already (did the work) when we got here. I don’t care – if he’s not professional, I’m professional. … I knew I had to go to the cage to kill or be killed. I knew that my job was on the line this fight.”
