Seventeen year old Welterweight prospect Xander Zayas (4-0, 3KOs) talks about how he’s dealing with the sport being temporarily grounded as a result of the COVID-19/Coronavirus pandemic and continuing the storied tradition of Puerto Rican boxing. In addition, he gives his professional take on former WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder’s shocking knockout loss to Tyson Fury on February 22.
