Capela is a striker and Ibragimov too, although I believe that as soon as he crosses a hand he will fight, but no, I have not changed anything. I have focused on capela, which is more explosive. This has a more kicking style. It is left -handed, the only thing that can change you when fighting. But nothing has changed. All destiny is the same.

I think the word is emotion.

So the truth is that very happy.

I have memories of shootings, robberies, of very complicated situations. Above I come from Cali, a very difficult neighborhood, which is Sucre, which is a very bad place. That is why my mother emigrated and came here to give us a future. But I also have very sweet, very beautiful memories, next to my family. Always heat because here it’s cold, I don’t like cold.
