His coach, Carl Lokko, expressed strong optimism about Laryea's chances against the hard-hitting Argentinian pugilist, Adrian Maximiliano Robledo. The fight is scheduled to take place at the La Cúpula Arena in Buenos Aires, serving as one of the undercards for the main event featuring Atomweight champion Florencia López.
