“My trainer and I have studied Yves Ulysse and know he is a solid boxer-puncher who fights with intensity and angles. He is as good as anyone in the 140lb class so it will be a hard fought exciting fight. I want to thank my promoter, Joe DeGuardia and HBO for getting me right back in the ring and back on HBO again so quickly. I want to fight every month like this.” said Seldin.
