Faster, more precise, more in control, Cissokho (32 years old, 1.78m, 66.5kgs) did not succeed in knocking out his opponent (27 years old, 1.77m, 66.68kgs) and therefore went to the After 12 rounds, he delivered an impressive knockdown in the second round and left the Mexican battered with several cuts to his face. “I would have liked to finish before the limit,” he declared after the fight on the airwaves of RMC, broadcaster of the meeting. He was a good Mexican who was tough to a fault. Now, we have to continue working, there is still work to do (…) At the top, it’s just big heads, we have to be meaner. I shouldn’t put myself on his level, I’m way above a guy like that. If I want to become world champion, there is still work. »
Cissokho had not been in the ring for eleven months and his fight on December 17, 2022 against Tulani Mbenge. From now on, he wants to continue and that’s good, the promoter Eddie Hearn, who organized the gala with Monaco and with whom Cissokho was engaged until this fight, seemed to have great plans for him. “We will try to make him fight in the first quarter of 2024. I want to see him under pressure, against a very high level opponent. He’s number 1 in France, we’re going to see if France can have a world champion, and it’s not easy in this category. But that’s the nature of this sport: you have to test yourself against the best. »
