Improving my best areas and working on my weaknesses. I'm so much excited to fight against an orthodox guy. Whether I show up or not, there's no way I'm going to coast. As Frevola is going to bring the fight out of me, similarly I’ll do the same and will bring the fight out of him." Moreover, Camacho told some general aspects of his training sessions and his training partners at the Oyama Camp.
"I think this fight is a must-win for me as I'm on a two-fight losing streak. One more thing about my excitement regarding this fight is the live roaring crowd. I'll just go there and "Crank" the things. I think roaring chants and backing of the crowd make these fights real fights. The crowd assists me to feel the vibration and it'll surely help me in that fight also. I'm really fantasizing about those hard three rounds with Frevola in the ring. I think this "Fantasization" is due to the short fights in the past two fights and I just want to get in there to enjoy and embrace.
I'm just embracing myself for a hard three rounds. I'm feeling the energy", Frank Camacho told John Hyon Ko.
