HOUSTON, TEXAS (Februarie 12, 2015) – Gary Shaw Productions și Savarese de promovares incantati sa anuntam unirea lor pentru a promova unul dintre cei mai talentați perspectivele sus și provenind din divizia grea lumina, Medzhid Bektemir (14-0, 11 KO). A devastating puncher with power in both hands, Bektemirov are, de asemenea, viteza și rapiditate, făcându-l unul dintre cele mai vorbit despre luptători din Rusia.

 

Născut în Mahacikala, Rusia, Bektemirov, acum locuiește în SUA, unde se antreneaza cu Ronnie Shields la “PLEX” în Stafford, Texas. A hard worker who practically lives in the gym, Mănâncă Medzhid, doarme și respiră box.

 

“Îți spun chiar acum, Medzhid Bektemirov este una dintre cele mai talentati luptatori l-am văzut de ceva vreme,” a spus Gary Shaw. “He has the rare combination of speed and power. I’m talking destructive power coming from both hands. His hooks are deadly and his fast feet are amazing. I’m going to go out on a limb and say Bektemirov could be the next great fighter to come out of Russia. I have the greatest amount of respect for Gennady Golovkin și Sergey Kovalev, both are great champions. Golovkin is a very special fighter and if Bektemirov can reach his level, then we’ll have something special as well. I believe Bektemirov will be looking to face Kovalev in the not so distant future.”

 

În doar bout lui 12, Bektemirov capturat WBC Statele Unite ale Americii (USNBC) titlu grea lumina cu o performanță util împotriva Randy Griffin (25-4-3, 13 KO), winning a lopsided twelve-round unanimous decision. Having gone twelve rounds in a professional bout already, Medzhid Bektemir, a dovedit că poate merge distanța dacă este necesar.

 

“În 2015 Medzhid Bektemirov va face cunoscută prezența lui pentru toată lumea în divizia categoria semigrea.”Lou Savarese stabilit. “This kid reminds me of Mike Tyson with his heavy hands and tremendous speed. I’ve been in the ring with Tyson and I’m confident when I say Bektemirov reminds me a lot like Mike. Gary and I are going to put tremendous amount promoting Medzhid. He will become a household name very soon and we are gunning for that world title.”

 

“Mă simt foarte binecuvântat să fie promovate de către Gary Shaw și Lou Savarese care au fost în box de mulți ani,” Medzhid Bektemir a spus. “I’ve come a long way from Russia to pursue my dream of becoming a champion. I love to fight and I get great enjoyment when I knockout my opponent. In every bout, I’m always going to be looking to end the fight early. The fans want to see knockouts and that is my specialty.”
