"I was very calm. I was very patient," said Anderson, in a post-fight statement sent to Insider.
"I felt very relaxed, pretty much the most relaxed I've ever been," Anderson said. "I heard my coach tell me to switch [stances]. I listened to him as always, so that was really the reason I switched."
Anderson wasn't the only rising prospect to continue their progression at the Top Rank show as Richard Torrez advanced his pro boxing record to three wins (three knockouts) with a 44-second finish over Marco Antonio Canedo.
