Anthony “Juice” Young’s Comeback: From Setback to Supercharged

Anthony “Juice” Young isn’t letting a tough loss define his career. After being knocked out by Alexis Rocha, the 36-year-old welterweight is stepping back into the ring with something to prove. Headlining a fight in Atlantic City this Saturday, Young is ready to show the world that setbacks are just stepping stones toward greatness. With bigger fights in his sights, this could be the start of an exciting comeback story.

Turning Defeat Into Fuel: “It Made Me Stronger”

For Young, his loss to Rocha wasn’t the end—it was the spark he needed. Instead of letting it crush him, he used the setback to power up, comparing his journey to a “Super Saiyan” from the popular anime Dragon Ball Z.

“Losing to Rocha was tough, but it didn’t break me. It made me stronger—like a Super Saiyan,” said Young. That mentality has fueled his determination to prove he’s still a force in the welterweight division.

Now, he’s set to face Windry Amadis Martinez, a 31-year-old fighter from the Dominican Republic with a record of 10-2 (5 KOs). With his own impressive record of 23-3 (8 KOs), Young is looking to dominate and remind everyone why he’s still a serious contender. This fight, promoted by Danny “Swift” Garcia’s Swift Promotions, is more than just another bout—it’s a chance to rewrite his story.

Eyes on Bigger Fights, Smarter Decisions

Even as he gears up for Saturday’s fight, Young has his sights set on bigger challenges. He’s openly targeting WBC champ Mario Barrios and WBA titleholder Eimantas Stanionis. But Young knows the importance of making smart moves, both inside and outside the ring.

When offered a fight against rising star Jalil Hackett, Young turned it down, citing financial concerns. “If you want me to fight somebody much younger than me, I’ve got to be compensated,” he explained. This decision shows Young’s focus on balancing ambition with practicality. He knows his worth and isn’t afraid to demand what he deserves.

Training under longtime coach Julio Sanchez, who was in his corner for the Rocha fight, Young feels sharp and ready. His game plan for Saturday is simple but effective: “I want a dominant performance. Clean boxing, smart strategy—this guy shouldn’t even be in the ring with me.”

Anthony Young: A Name to Remember

Anthony Young isn’t just fighting to win—he’s fighting to remind everyone that he’s still a major player. For him, this comeback is personal. He’s determined to prove that his best days aren’t behind him.

“Barrios, Stanionis—remember those names,” Young declared. “When I get my opportunity, I won’t miss it again.”

Saturday’s fight isn’t just about his opponent. It’s about making a statement to the boxing world. Young wants everyone to know he’s back, stronger, and hungrier than ever.
