HOUSTON, TEXAS (Märts 31, 2015) – Bombs will be flying once again when Gary Shaw Productions ja Savarese Promotions’ undefeated Light-Heavyweight slugger, Medzhid “B-52” Bektemirov (15-0, 12 Kos), teeb oma tee tagasi ring peale Michael Gbenga (20-18, 20 Kos). Bektemirov vs. Gbenga, 8 ringi matši, toimub Laupäev, Aprill 18, at College Park Center located on the campus of the University of Texas Arlington on the undercard of Crawford-Dulorme.
Sageduselt #10 poolt WBA, Bektemirov püüab teise võidu vastu Gbenga, as he looks to climb up the Light-Heavyweight rankings while keeping his undefeated record intact. His mission, nagu alati, on saada oma vastase välja seal alguses.
“Otsin leida ja hävitada kõik oma teed,” Said Medzhid Bektemirov. “Minu treener 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, kuid ma tunnen mu löögid on rohkem plahvatusohtlik ja võtan gunning eest knockout avamisest bell. Ma olen valmis tilk pomme!”
“Lou ja mina teeme oma parima, et hoida B-52 kinni,” öeldud 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.”
“Ma olen väga õnnelik, et Gary Shaw oli võimalus saada B-52 Kaardil,” öeldud 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.”
