HOUSTON, TEXAS (Martie 31, 2015) – Bombs will be flying once again when Gary Shaw Productions și Promoții Savarese’ undefeated Light-Heavyweight slugger, Medzhid “B-52” Bektemirov (15-0, 12 KO), face drumul înapoi spre ring împotriva Michael Gbenga (20-18, 20 KO). Bektemirov vs. Gbenga, un meci de 8-rotund, va avea loc Sâmbătă, Aprilie 18, at College Park Center located on the campus of the University of Texas Arlington on the undercard of Crawford-Dulorme.
Ranked #10 de WBA, Bektemirov va căuta un alt victorie împotriva Gbenga, as he looks to climb up the Light-Heavyweight rankings while keeping his undefeated record intact. His mission, ca de obicei, este de a obtine adversarul său de acolo mai devreme.
“Caut să caute și să distrugă toată lumea în calea mea,” Said Medzhid Bektemirov. “Antrenor meu Ronnie Shields has me working on a variety of different combinations that I feel is making me a better fighter. I’m in the gym everyday working extremely hard on everything. Now that I’m ranked in the WBA, I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. My co-promoters Gary Shaw and Lou Savarese have assured me a big fight if I continue to win. I know Gbenga has a lot of power, dar eu simt pumni mele vor fi mai exploziv și voi fi Gunning pentru knock-out de clopot de deschidere. Sunt gata să renunțe la bombe!”
“Lou și cu mine facem tot posibilul pentru a păstra B-52 ocupat,” a spus Gary Shaw. “This will be his second fight in a little over a month and we want him on the fast track to a world title. Our goal is to move him up wisely against opponents that will prepare him for the next level. He keeps knocking everyone out so we have to keep him fighting as much as possible.”
“Sunt foarte fericit că Gary Shaw a fost capabil de a obține B-52 pe această carte,” a spus Lou Savarese. “Bektemirov is thrilled to be fighting so soon after a spectacular performance in his last fight which took place last month. I like what Ronnie Shields is doing with him. He’s improving with each fight and that’s what Gary and I are looking for. We want B-52 ready for the next level.”
