Now they get a chance to be in a 50-50 fight and could produce fireworks together. Tamrazyan had a good argument for winning his last fight against Bobby Mominov who went on to fight on NBC not long after. Both Tamrazyan and Mwankemwa are really solid fighters that are better than their records suggest.”

CLICK HIER OM HET SERIE-DEBUT TE BEKIJKEN MET GESCHIEDENIS-MAKENDE VROUWELIJKE WERELDKAMPIOEN CLARESSA SHIELDS
Salita Promotions, het toonaangevende bedrijf voor promoties in boksen, kondigden vandaag de lancering aan van hun nieuwe YouTube-serie “Train als een bokser,” met oprichter van het bedrijf Dmitriy Salita en Olympisch gouden medaillewinnaar en wereldkampioen meervoudig gewicht Claressa Shields, evenals andere vooraanstaande vechters onder de vlag van Salita, waaronder Otto Wallin, Shohjahon Ergashev en Kolbeinn Kristinsson.
Beginnend met een nieuwe webisode deze woensdag, April 1, 2020, op de YouTube-kanalen van Salita Promotions en Claressa Shields, “Train als een bokser” zal proberen mensen te motiveren om actief te blijven tijdens quarantaine door fitnessadvies en boksgerelateerde routines te geven, perfect geschikt voor personen met minimale uitrusting en beperkte ruimte om te oefenen.
Voordat hij de nieuwste promotionele krachtpatser van boksen werd met een indrukwekkende stal van wereldkampioenen, beste kanshebbers en nieuwe vooruitzichten, Dmitriy Salita heeft jarenlang getraind in enkele van de meest erkende sportscholen in de geschiedenis van de sport als kampioen van de New York State Golden Gloves en professionele topmededinger.
“Tijdens deze wereldwijde Corona-crisis, deze serie helpt boksfans met hun fysieke en mentale toestand door met onze vechters in contact te komen met deze leuke en gezonde activiteiten,”Zei Salita. "De training van een bokser is perfect voor deze moeilijke tijden omdat deze wordt gedaan in het isolement van een trainingskamp. Onze vechters willen iets terugdoen en in contact komen met fans over de hele wereld tijdens dit ‘isolatietrainingskamp’ -periode en binnenkort gaan we allemaal genieten van de grote overwinning van het overwinnen van Covid 19. ''
Drie-divisie en de huidige WBC en WBO superweltergewicht wereldkampioen Shields, die haar poging zag om de eerste bokser te worden in het four-belt-tijdperk om te worden gekroond tot onbetwiste wereldkampioen in twee gewichtsklassen tegen de eveneens ongeslagen IBF-kampioen superweltergewicht Marie-Eve Dicaire, werd vorige week officieel uitgesteld, zegt dat ze hoopt dat deze video's iedereen helpen om fysiek en mentaal fit te blijven tijdens deze moeilijke tijden.
“Met alles wat de wereld nu doormaakt, Ik wil mensen op elke mogelijke manier helpen om zich beter te voelen terwijl ze thuis blijven totdat deze pandemie voorbij is,”Zei Shields. "Deze video's - zelfs 20 naar 40 minuten per dag - kan helpen. Laten we samen sterk blijven!"
