Reflecting on Jake’s upcoming fight, the Puerto Rican native jokingly recollected what Jake had told her in the recent past. “I think you know Jake is like, he says, ‘he’s going to come steal my show.’ We [are] going have a problem with that,” Serrano said. However, she believes, “He’s going to, I believe, he’s going to knock this guy out. Jake is at a different level.” Amanda Serrano further added, “He’s a different person, endeavoring, and I’m just excited to see him.”
